John Clay Wolf
Good morning, everybody. God, what a week it's been. Last week's car show, concerts, the weather. I'm beat. And then I had to go to Barrett Jackson in Florida. Took off Thursday morning at crack of dawn. Just got back last night, did a lot of business, sold some cars. Have a big Lamborghini running this evening. Gated Murcielago Saturday night. And, you know, there was drama with that car because it's a wide body. We had it booked into the sale, but first transporter showed up, battery was dead, so they left. Next transporter showed up, and it was too wide for them to fit. The next transporter showed up in the middle of the car show last Saturday, and this was like the last train to Georgia. And I'm like, I found out that he left without getting the car because the battery still wasn't right. So it wasn't running right. You know, I've told y'all before, the batteries caused a lot of problems with the car. So anyway, I was like, guys, now we got a problem. We've signed a contract to get this car into this auction, and we've got to hightail it to Georgia. So y'all get to run it to Georgia. I mean, not Georgia. We got a high tail to Florida, to West Palm. So they took our truck and trailer, got the battery right, everything's fine, put the car on it. But it won't fit to the front of the trailer because it's too wide. And you can't run a car across the country with the trailer weighted on the back because it'll flop around. So I had to put another car in the auction last minute, and we stuck one in front of it to wait. The front of the trailer got the Lamborghini in. Mark Cuban, the guy that we sold that, that camera for, he said, hey, I'll run it to Florida and back. So he got his girlfriend and he hightailed it to Florida. It was literally eastbound down, Loaded up in trucking.
J.D. Ryan
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And he showed up about an hour before the car that we slammed in. The truck ran. So it, like, came off the trailer and went to the auction block at Barrett Jackson and lost its ass.
J.D. Ryan
Oh.
John Clay Wolf
Because it had no preview. So anyway, and then little man. Not little man. Middleman. Nolan. Yesterday was his 16th birthday.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Yep.
J.D. Ryan
All right.
John Clay Wolf
So I had to get back quick for his birthday dinner, and his mother took him to the DMV yesterday morning to get his license. Now, right before I left the night before, we go down to the dmv, and we're practicing parallel parking like any good parent and son should. And they take my land cruiser, and it has a. Doesn't have a plate on the front. So the instructor would not give him the test because my land cruiser did not have a license plate on the front. So we grabbed his brother's truck, and it did not have a license plate on the front. So my assistant, Amy, I was like, call. And I'm sitting here at the auction trying to work, and I'm like, call Amy. She's got this car. I'm sure hers is qualified. So she runs her car up there. So there's three appointments if you have appointment with the dmv. And my wife's like, please let us. It's his birthday. Please. So they have three shots. The last one showed up. He gets in this srx cadillac that he's never driven before. Starts the deal, flunks the parallel parking. And then he pulled out on the highway, and somebody kind of honked at him, and he honked back. He's on the shoulder trying to get over in. The instructor said, stop the test.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, no.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, no. They stopped the test.
John Clay Wolf
Yep.
Gigi Drummond
I didn't know they would do that.
John Clay Wolf
They did.
J.D. Ryan
I'd never heard of that.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, he said it was a nice little asian lady, but she was scared. She was in fear for her life.
J.D. Ryan
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
Wow.
Gigi Drummond
Poor kid.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Gigi Drummond
He'll get another shot.
John Clay Wolf
Well, and then, you know, the. The day before, we had all these plans. We were going to sneak his friends out here to walnut springs. Danielle was going to bring them in a van, and he was going to come up here, and I had a car waiting on him. It was going to be a big surprise. And he started mouthing off on Thursday. I don't want to go to the ranch. I don't want to be at home. You know what? Just forget it. Just forget the whole thing. Just forget it. Forget it. Got you a new phone. For your birthday. Happy birthday. Well, what about my car? Well, you don't get a car. Well, you don't get a car.
DJ Pre K
You blew that one.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I thought that we. Can't you just bring it here? No, I can't just bring it here if you're. I mean, just forget it. Just forget. Forget it. So it's been quite the week, to say the least.
DJ Pre K
What a teenage boy's trouble, I can't imagine.
John Clay Wolf
But we did have a nice dinner last night, and he was over his attitude. He realized that we had all this planned for him and he blew it. So now he's playing.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, nice.
John Clay Wolf
Dear dad, is there anything I can do for you to make you, you know, make your life easier this morning? That's a hell of a week. Oh, God. And then, and then, and then software problems with the. With the company. I mean, the new software system we're writing, which has been going on forever. We switched companies. Now there's another problem with that. And Muffy and Gary are out in Arizona looking at a big group of cars. And Abdullah and Tyler and all the rest of them and Cooper and all my guys have been buying their asses off. Your guys have been buying their asses off trying to keep these lanes loaded because we're getting the classic and collector sale next Wednesday. We have another one. I think I'm just going to do this once a month on the last auction of every month. I think that's the easy way to do that. But we've got a good group of cars. Then Rollins had a deal at a Jeep fest in Daytona, and I was going to pick him up when I left West Palm in Daytona. And I'm like, hey, I'm fixing to leave. Let me pick you up. And he's like, oh, I didn't make it.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, he wasn't even there.
John Clay Wolf
My flights got crisscrossed and I'm so, like, his. His flight got screwed up.
Gigi Drummond
He wouldn't fly in your plane anyway, though.
John Clay Wolf
I always offer, but, I mean, I think in this case he will when he's desperate.
Gigi Drummond
His wife doesn't know about it, I guess.
John Clay Wolf
I don't know. That's the most ridiculous thing in the.
J.D. Ryan
World, but I don't know what Rollins does with cars. Apparently, he's pretty notable. Something to do with cars. But he should. He should focus on the hot sauce. They should have that hot sauce at Walmart. I made chili dogs last night. You know what made them perfect? That damn gas monkey toasted Earl Campbell dogs in the oven. Toast them for like 25 minutes. Nice blow. They were whistling when I took them out.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
J.D. Ryan
Toasted the buns, cheese first, chili on top, a little bit of that Richard Rawlings hot sauce.
John Clay Wolf
Which one do you use? Skid mark. That's what I like. Texas Skid mark.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
Gigi Drummond
I have to say the beer's pretty good, too.
John Clay Wolf
The garage beer.
J.D. Ryan
That's okay.
Gigi Drummond
I mean, I was surprised.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. After Dallas auction last week, I go over to gas bank on Wednesday afternoons, and they had this whole big setup and the distributor was there and the TV cameras were there and they were doing some beer fest. It's always something over there. And then Domingo. Right. And then what?
J.D. Ryan
What? What?
John Clay Wolf
Wait, no, no, no.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Right. So it's just always something.
Gigi Drummond
There's always action out there.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Gigi Drummond
I mean, he's got cars coming in and out and people are going to see him. I mean, it's a lot.
John Clay Wolf
So the hot sauce. The guy that makes his hot sauce filed bankruptcy.
J.D. Ryan
What? He got it. Okay. No.
John Clay Wolf
Yes. So he's got these recipes for this hot sauce. He's got to get a new person in the same way that that guy was producing.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, hell.
John Clay Wolf
So he's got that problem.
J.D. Ryan
It'll never be the same. Might recipes, man.
John Clay Wolf
And then this restaurant that he's fixing to open, and I did an investment in it, and it's going to be good. I'm excited about it. Then my buddy out in Midland and his restaurant that we're working with that's opening Monday, and it's just.
Gigi Drummond
Are you going to be out there for the opening?
John Clay Wolf
No, I'm. I'm getting a little cooked. Yeah, I'm getting a little cooked, to tell you the truth. And then we're doing this video that we're trying to put out to noon today of last week's car show and Pat Green thing and all this stuff. And I was filming that on the way. I was reviewing that on the way. And I'll tell you, this new guy we have behind the camera, he's good. He is great. It is. And what's so weird is that I put a shout out on this show and he hits me at John Claywolf, jcwshow.com and he says, hey, I'd be interested in that job. And I talked to him for about two hours a month ago on a Saturday night, and I was like, this guy is real. And he's. He's kind of a super fan, so he really understands what we do. And he's just been sitting at home. You know, the weirdest thing about it is he's 26, 28 years old, and he's been a house dad for two Datsun dogs that are. They're not retarded, but they're impaired. What you think I'm getting? They're hooked up to like a wagon, like, like their spinal cord. And so he's got this good looking girlfriend and she's got a big job and they love these dogs. And he is the house mom. He's like, I'm just sitting there. I said, dude, you're like 26, 27. You got to get somebody else to watch these dogs. You've got a lot of talent. And he came over and he's. That last video we did that hit so hard, he did it and I just saw the preview of the one he did of last weekend and I'm like, I didn't have to make any cuts, I didn't have to make any suggestions. I didn't say anything. He did all this himself. I'm like, oh, my God, this guy. He's the guy.
J.D. Ryan
There's.
John Clay Wolf
I was about ready to give up. I actually had given up. You know, when Bryce left, we never got the YouTube channel traction that I was looking for. I was like, this is just too much trouble. And then Brandon DePrato from Gas Monkey, he and Richard, he'd been running Gas Monkeys channel for four years and they had personal differences and Richard had to let him go. But this was coming. We all saw this coming. And Richard's like, man, I had to fire this guy. I'm like, I'll hire him. So he came over with us and immediately our stuff started clicking. It was doing better, look great. And everybody's like, the production value looks so good on your channel and everything on the John Clay wolf channel on YouTube. And then he's like, hey, man, I'm putting my two weeks notice after he was with us for like four, three weeks. Yeah, like, just about the time it starts working, he's going to. He had a. He had a line in the water in Arizona on another gig that he wanted. And it came on and then I found out. I just didn't understand why he left. And then one of his friends said, there's a hot girl that we did some stuff with and she works at that company there. Now I understand because I was like, man, I thought that this guy liked us.
J.D. Ryan
That's the age.
John Clay Wolf
But then this other kid comes in and he got trained by Brandon before he left and he's great. I'm dude, your Faith it all. It it all happens. So we're going to keep working.
J.D. Ryan
A sharp dude.
John Clay Wolf
He's real smart.
J.D. Ryan
Very.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Gigi Drummond
Hopefully in this new video, left off the awards ceremony.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, why? Was it just a train wreck? Was it a train wreck?
Gigi Drummond
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Why?
Gigi Drummond
Well, first of all, somebody doesn't need to be drinking if they're going to give out awards. Me, not you.
John Clay Wolf
Tom Smith.
Gigi Drummond
Tom. Yes, I was.
John Clay Wolf
Tom Smith drinking.
Gigi Drummond
Was he drinking?
DJ Pre K
Smith drinking? Wow.
Gigi Drummond
I couldn't understand half what he said.
John Clay Wolf
Well, that's kind of his deal.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah. But it doesn't work when you're trying to give awards and. And when you're doing 25 awards, which was a lot of wars, right?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it was. It was just a bit of a train wreck. Oh, just a bit of a train.
Gigi Drummond
Wreck or full on, Please, Never again.
J.D. Ryan
Full on.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. So bad.
Gigi Drummond
John. I was waiting. I was like, okay, I'll tell my wife. There's a point that John's going to walk up and just take this mic.
John Clay Wolf
Right?
Gigi Drummond
And you did.
John Clay Wolf
It took a little bit.
Gigi Drummond
You were just kind of letting this whole train wreck go, Right. Finally you got up there and just grabbed the mic. It's like, all right, here's these awards.

Gigi Drummond
You know what I mean?
J.D. Ryan
I'm loving your radio show. I'm trying, you know, and I. I just can't. I can't get enough of life today.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I'm glad that you're in a good mood, Bus. Keep it up. Thank you. Lynn and Midland, you've got a 22 Lariat Tremor diesel with 150,000 miles on it. But it says extended cab. Is that right? Not a crew cab.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, it's a.
John Clay Wolf
No, it's.
J.D. Ryan
It's an extended cab. I mean, it's a crew cab.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Because I was like, I have. I have not seen a trimmer diesel in a extended cabin. I don't know how long. If. Even if it. If I've ever said it was the first one.
J.D. Ryan
It was the first one that come off the assembly line. And covert Ford had it put on a train and sitting.
John Clay Wolf
To me, well, it's got 150,000 miles on it. So. You drive a lot. You want 70,000 highway miles. There's no way that car will work at 70,000. There's zero. I mean, there's just no. There's no planet that works on at 70.
J.D. Ryan
Damn. What do you got?
John Clay Wolf
I don't even want to quote it. If you want 70,000, I'd rather be your friend. I don't want to argue. Didn't you hear my whole stick? I'm beat. I'm beat this week. I don't want to argue with anybody. I just want to get along, man. Stu in West Palm Beach, Florida, good morning. You're on the air.
J.D. Ryan
Morning, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, I was in your city last night.
J.D. Ryan
Yes, you are. I saw you sitting there in the audience yesterday, and you weren't the happiest person.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, really? Why?
J.D. Ryan
You just didn't look. You were making money.
John Clay Wolf
I was losing money. Or making money.
J.D. Ryan
It looks like you're losing to me. But.
John Clay Wolf
Well, the truck lost. But. But I got some bargains, too. There was some stuff early in the day, like right in the. Right out of the gate that there.
J.D. Ryan
Was a lot of bargains yesterday. Stuff went for good pricing.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. When they're kind of weird.
J.D. Ryan
No reserves. So everything was not getting to the peak like it used to. So.
John Clay Wolf
Right. You've got a 23 bins E450 with 4,000 miles. Are you a car dealer?
J.D. Ryan
No, I am not.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. What were you doing out there? Did you buy anything?
J.D. Ryan
No, I was looking for a toy, but nothing. Nothing hit me. Right.
John Clay Wolf
What were you like? What were you looking for just out.
J.D. Ryan
Of curiosity, older Mustangs.
John Clay Wolf
Did you see that resto mod that brought 80 grand? The convertible at about 4 o'clock? The blue one? Yes. I like that car. When that car rolled up, I said that car's gonna bring 80 grand. And it brought 80 grand.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, that was the thing, you know, you look, I was looking at, you know, stuff it was going earlier and everything was going the 30s, 40s, right. And then all of a sudden it cycled up and you know, today, today will too.
John Clay Wolf
But the difference was the quality. I mean that, that was a resto mod with a coyote engine. These few big options are the difference makers. It's just a huge difference. But you can't take that car at 50 grand and do the coyote swap and make any money even if it brings 80 grand.
J.D. Ryan
True.
John Clay Wolf
You're way better buying them finished. Hey, is your bins a four door or two door?
J.D. Ryan
It is a two door coupe. You know the sunroof that goes all the way back. AMG black edition all around. Heads up display, full display and interior. Red leather, black trim inside, black outside purchased. It's a two year car and it goes back and forth to the grocery store with the wife.
John Clay Wolf
Am I hitting it right? Is 50 grand about right?
J.D. Ryan
I'm thinking a little higher than that personally, but you know the market better than I.
John Clay Wolf
50 grand I'm comfortable with. Go to givemetheven.com and send me some photos and let me look up that black package because that black package threw me off a little bit. So I need to focus on that when I am.
J.D. Ryan
It was an 81, 81 sticker.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Two years ago.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I know I'm good at 50, but I'll bump a little bit. Send me some pictures. Go to gimmetheven.com and load it up. And thanks for calling in.
J.D. Ryan
Gotcha. Good talking with you.

J.D. Ryan
Flagstaff because my manager doesn't own a globe. We took off from the Flagstaff airport. Hair care and Tire center there. We're traveling at half the speed of smell. We got passed by a kite. We had some engine trouble. We lost some oil pressure in one of the engines, and they told us about it over the speaker system of the plane. But I'd been drinking since lunch, and I was like, take it down. I don't care. The guy sitting next to me is Lou losing his mind. Apparently he had a lot to live for. He goes, hey, man, if one of these engines fails, how far will the.
John Clay Wolf

John Clay Wolf
Did I ever tell you about that time that I was flying? I had a pilot flying. Me too. I don't know, an auction in Louisiana somewhere. 25 years ago. I had a twin engine. Baron P. Baron. I'm in the back, he's in the front. He's a commercial pilot. I like the guy. I hope he's not listening. But we lost an engine on the right side.
J.D. Ryan
Oh.
John Clay Wolf
And he panicked. A pilot, he panicked, and I came over the seat, got in the front. I took it from him.
Gigi Drummond
Geez, what was his panic? Did he just freeze?
John Clay Wolf
No, he just got real. I could just tell he was just really panicky, and he was just really uncomfortable. And I'm like, this is not a big deal. Feather. I mean, we'll. You know, I. I secured it and feathered it. It was the right side. We landed at this little airport and wherever. And that's a. To taxi those planes on one engine, I can tell you that. No doubt the hardest part of it was when we were on the ground trying to drive it because it's a twin prop and it's just pulling on one side. So I had to circle, circle two good circles to get momentum up. After I stopped so I could taxi. And we took the cowl off, and all the inlet hose on the turbo.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Had come off. Made it run like it was all coming apart. Zit.
Gigi Drummond
We took off, and he panicked.
J.D. Ryan
That's a lot.
John Clay Wolf
He did panic a commercial pilot. I mean, he wasn't. He was a freight hauler. He was building time. But anyway, he panicked. Pete. Washington D.C. good morning. You're on the air. Good morning, John. Hey. I'm in the George Washington University Hospital with a fractured hip.
DJ Pre K
I had an operation about less than.
John Clay Wolf
Three weeks ago, and I'm waiting for physical therapy.
DJ Pre K
I just took my oxy coating. I just heard a song on the.
John Clay Wolf
Telephone by Grand Funk Railroad. Yeah, I had an album by. This is great.
DJ Pre K
I had an album by them a long time ago.
John Clay Wolf
Those oxies are kicking in.
J.D. Ryan
Peter.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, Pete, are you there with us? Yeah. You know, when I was in the hospital one time, they had me on oxys and I had a big hallucination, and I thought the balloons that people sent me and turned into Martians, they were going to get me. So I got out of the bed and I'm going down the hallway screaming. I was in seventh grade.
J.D. Ryan
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
Just an appendectomy. But at that point I decided oxycodones are not for me. Pete. Bless you. It must have been pretty bad if you've been in there for two weeks. Yes.
DJ Pre K
I asked for nitrous oxide before with the operation.
John Clay Wolf
I think that helped. It'll make you go fast. Keep on keeping on, dog. Thanks for calling in hardcore listeners.
Gigi Drummond
He's in the hospital, high as a kite. He's listening to the show.
John Clay Wolf
Couldn't be any higher. Kevin. West Palm 82, 500 SL with 80,000 mile gray market. Man, those cars are not worth much. I don't.
J.D. Ryan
I. I didn't think so.
John Clay Wolf
I don't want to hurt you, too.
J.D. Ryan
Good morning, sir.
John Clay Wolf
Good morning. Good morning.
J.D. Ryan
A little bit of what that guy.
John Clay Wolf
Was just on, right? Man, I had a meeting with a guy Thursday night at the Ben Hotel. Up top. Have you ever been there?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, beautiful.
John Clay Wolf
Beautiful place. I go there for cocktails. How about.
J.D. Ryan
How beautiful?
John Clay Wolf
How's that for you? Yeah, right. The. The bar on the very top. I was like, jesus Christ. Yeah, it's beautiful. Like something out of a magazine. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
I get rich.
John Clay Wolf
People that come into town, they take me there. I'm a little guy. That's good. That's good. All right, well, you're not going to get rich off of this car, so I just keep it.
J.D. Ryan
No, I don't.
John Clay Wolf
I didn't. I didn't think so.
J.D. Ryan
But, you know, I watched your. I watched that podcast.
John Clay Wolf
I'm a car guy, but, like American old muscle cars.
J.D. Ryan
And I watched the recent. What was recent?
John Clay Wolf
To me, it hit me like a.
J.D. Ryan
Rabbit hole where you had a bunch.
John Clay Wolf
Of cars and you had to sell them, right?
J.D. Ryan
And it was a.
John Clay Wolf
It was a great video.
J.D. Ryan
And I liked how I hear your show for years.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, I work on Saturday, so.
John Clay Wolf
I drive around and Listen, but you seem like a. Just a down to earth kind of dude.
J.D. Ryan
And I don't know what to do with this car. And I've been told left and right and I don't need the money and.
John Clay Wolf
I don't need to sell it. But it was my mom's car, brand new.
J.D. Ryan
The car is a solid eight.
John Clay Wolf
It's beautiful. And I. I have never driven it, ever.
J.D. Ryan
I wasn't allowed to. And I don't want to. And I don't know what to do with it, but I don't want it to rot away. And I will sell it and. But I don't. I've seen them.
John Clay Wolf
24, 000, 6000, 4000.
J.D. Ryan
And I don't know what to do with the car.
John Clay Wolf
And I thought maybe I just call.
J.D. Ryan
I didn't even think I'd get on the air.
John Clay Wolf
I just thought maybe. I think it's gonna. I think in my auction line it's going to bring five grand.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. Okay. All right. Well.
John Clay Wolf
And I don't know, I saw an 88 yesterday, 560 with the third tail light, which normally they bring 25. That's the one they want. Yep. And it brought 14. In these cars, when I get a hold of these gray market, these old ones, I mean, they're four, five, six grand. That's all they get. That's it. Yeah. And I have to sell them on a red light because everything breaks. It is a. It is a 500 SL. It does have the spoiler in the back. It is red tan guts.
J.D. Ryan
Brand new Mercedes, brand new Michelins. And it looks the part.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, it does. So real quick. Real, real quick, real quick. My stepmother had this car. It was a gray market car. And the bumpers are tucked in, the headlights are different, and the spoiler on the back is. Is rubber. And it's. That's how you know it's that gray market. So the lady that cut my hair all my life, my dad sold my stepmother's car and got her a Cadillac. Brits. And I'm at the barber shop and I see a white SL with a blue top. And it had a scratch on the dork. The gas filler where I scratched the car. My stepmother's car when I was filling it up. And I was. My dad and my stepmom. My dad and my stepmom who. They didn't really get along. And I'm in the backseat, we're driving one day. I said, hey, did y'all know Donna the hairdresser bought Suzette's Old car.
DJ Pre K
Whoops. This is going.
John Clay Wolf
My barber, she did start cutting my hair when I was one and so I didn't see her through that lens. But as I get older back then she was a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And my dad said, there's no way that she got that same car. It's just a different car. You're just misunderstanding. And my stepmother's looking at him. And I said no because I scratched the gas lid. I never told anybody. I chipped it with the gas filler one day when I was filling it up. It's Suzette's old car, there's no question. And my stepmother's looking at him and he's like trying to hit me. He's trying to wait. I'm in the back of his Oldsmobile and he's tapping on the back like, kid, give it a rest. I had no idea. But it damn sure was her car. And they did not stay married very long. My name is John Clay Wolf by cars on the radio for America's best car buyer. Give me the vin.com be right back.

John Clay Wolf
Johnny in Indianapolis. Jody, Indianapolis, Indiana is what it says. You there? Hey, I've got terrible news for you. My opinion and your opinion on this ZR1 are two different opinions. I'm unfortunately a ZR1 expert because I've lost enough money on them to know and okay, they're just not doing it. They're just not doing it. You've got a 92ZR1 triple white, which is good, obviously, but the 50,000 miles, it's 20 grand rig.
J.D. Ryan
No kidding.
John Clay Wolf
Absolutely. I saw one sell at Bear Jackson yesterday with 12,000 miles for 27. I've got one with 19 miles that I've have in a shop getting them anyway. It's a long story, but yeah, I've bought and sold plenty of those in the 50,000 miles. Actually, if it didn't have the story on the triple white, I'd be 15.
J.D. Ryan
No kidding. They're dropping that much?
John Clay Wolf
They. They're not dropping. They dropped. This is old hat. It's. It's happened about three years ago. But if you want to do that, send us pictures. Give me the vin dot com. Chris, what's up? You're on the air. Lucas, Texas.
J.D. Ryan
Hey, good morning, John. Just wanted to let you guys know I did givemethevin.com for the second time yesterday. All right. Yeah, first one was the wife's Mustang couple years ago. And then yesterday was my son's G71 Silverado. Man, everything was great.
John Clay Wolf
Perfect.
J.D. Ryan
Really appreciate you guys.
John Clay Wolf
I love it when people call in with good stories. I'm sorry you didn't win the 25 grand. Well, you might win the 25 grand. That's right, because we're giving away another 25 grand this month, so you never know.
J.D. Ryan
That's what. That's what Jeremy said, I believe his name was. Yeah, the Ruben was great in the Addison office, by the way.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, the lady that won last week actually dropped at the Addison office. So the Addison is like getting lotto tickets. That Addison office is hot. It's hot. It's hot. Thank you. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. It is time for Florida News. It would play. That'd be great.
J.D. Ryan
And now, from North America's own land down under, it's time for Sunshine State News with your certified lifeguard, J.D.
John Clay Wolf
Ryan.
DJ Pre K
Okay, well, rain, sleet or gloom of nightmare won't stop the mail. But vodka might. A 33 year old USPS driver arrested for DUI in Florida earlier this month. She was on duty? Yes. Making deliveries? Sort of. This is the woman who witnessed her driving and decided to call the cops.
J.D. Ryan
At number eight, we saw a male truck driving in the wrong direction in the same lane that we were in.
John Clay Wolf
She proceeded to drive in zigzags all the way down the road until she.
J.D. Ryan
Got to the stop sign where she.
John Clay Wolf
Proceeded to kick a solo cup out.
J.D. Ryan
Of the side of the mail truck.
John Clay Wolf
She was literally off roading in the mail truck.
DJ Pre K
Off roading in the mail truck. She'd gone to a house party. She went by somebody's house and they said, hey, we're having a party. Come on in. So she admitted to having a couple of shots of vodka.
Gigi Drummond
Why not, right? At least she got the red solo cup.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, I bet there's a bottle in the truck somewhere.
J.D. Ryan
Two shots.
John Clay Wolf
Hot teacher to boo to. Be right on.
DJ Pre K
Yep. This Florida story, it's got Florida written all over it. It's an animal tracker from Jacksonville. His name is Mike Dragic. Of course he is. AKA the Blue Collar Brawler, as his neighbors call him. Had to interrupt his When a woman came down the road, she had spotted an alligator hanging out around her house. They've got him in the Florida, and here he is trapping. He's got to go down and now trap this alligator in her trash containers. The video, by the way, is up on our you YouTube stream, jcwshow.com cut number nine.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, he's right there under the trash can.
J.D. Ryan
That's a big one.
John Clay Wolf
He's getting him.
J.D. Ryan
Yes. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, baby.
J.D. Ryan
Dude's got no shoes. Damn, baby.
DJ Pre K
I know he's got no shoes. Got a flashlight and one of those giant green, like, recycle containers that he's trying to stuff. I'm sorry. That alligator is too big to be thrown in a trash can.
Gigi Drummond
I mean, have you ever had a wrangle a wild animal before, like a raccoon?
DJ Pre K
No.
Gigi Drummond
That's how you do it. With a trash can.
J.D. Ryan
With a trident.
John Clay Wolf
Well, yeah, but a raccoon small.
DJ Pre K
That thing's six feet.
John Clay Wolf
I thought a 410 will do it pretty good.
J.D. Ryan
Would you just shoot it? Yeah, there's that.
DJ Pre K
Let's not get PETA upset with us. They're already mad at us.
John Clay Wolf
My wife, a possum, had babies at our house the other day in the backyard. Oh. And she was just. She had me on FaceTime, and she's like, look at this baby. Oh, yeah. Like, hamster size. And I was like, do not touch it. Do not do it. I know she did it. I know she picked it up. She won't admit it.
Gigi Drummond
You're gonna have a possum now as a pet.
John Clay Wolf
Does anybody have a pet possum?
Gigi Drummond
Oh, come on.
DJ Pre K
Oh, my God.
Gigi Drummond
We're in the Southeast.
DJ Pre K
Speaking of Florida news.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but what about those razor teeth on them?
J.D. Ryan
Now? Possums are really nice animals. They're very docile. That's why they say when you play possum, if you. If you get close to a possum, I mean, up close and personal.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
J.D. Ryan
They'll totally just go limp. They just play dead. You know, they're. They're not aggressive. They eat a lot of bugs that are very bothersome to us.
DJ Pre K
Exactly.
J.D. Ryan
And they only show up at night when you're asleep, so you hardly ever see them. They're really, really good animals.
John Clay Wolf
So we should keep all the possums as our pets? Just put collars on them and take them to the vet?
J.D. Ryan
Absolutely. No, just feed them pedigree, extra protein.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
And they won't eat your cat.
Gigi Drummond
You don't have a good track record of Keeping animals around the ranch.
John Clay Wolf
Around anything.
Gigi Drummond
Where the donkeys go.
John Clay Wolf
Are they not out there?
DJ Pre K
I just saw them.
J.D. Ryan
They're camouflaged now. They're all muddy.
DJ Pre K
You still have the cat.
John Clay Wolf
You still have the cat. Okay, the cat's going nowhere.
DJ Pre K
The one that whizzed on your bed.
John Clay Wolf
Whizzed on me.
DJ Pre K
Would you?
J.D. Ryan
Boy, JD's spoiling for a fight.
DJ Pre K
No, I'm just asking.
J.D. Ryan
You still got a cat or you know, we peed on you?
DJ Pre K
Not where I was going. Bringing up the story.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Nothing better than picking up an alley cat. And then we see the same alley where we found the kitten.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
I didn't find it. Little man did. And you see its mother or his dad. It looks just like it walking around and I'm like, we're not taking.
DJ Pre K
Mom's not coming home with this.
John Clay Wolf
We're not doing this. What else you got?
DJ Pre K
Let's see here. We have a manager. This one's in Oklahoma though, man.
John Clay Wolf
Oh good.
DJ Pre K
Sonic driving in Oklahoma. Arrested this week for giving a 16 year old co worker an edible marijuana. Edible? Apparently the girl had a very bad reaction. I had a bad reaction to a freaking gummy too. Anyway, she became unresponsive and here's the officer. Yes, the cops recall Danny Bean talking about the incident. Cut number 12.
John Clay Wolf
She was throwing up, being sick from all the stuff she ingested. I was just kind of taken back a little bit about why did you give it to her or whatever. How did she. How did she end up with it? You know, because she asked for it. It's just zero responsibility for anything. Not only a 16 year old, but also at a restaurant where they're gonna be involved with people all day long. Right. Something bad is gonna happen no matter what.
DJ Pre K
This will chill ya.
John Clay Wolf
Well. Sonic drive ins in Oklahoma. I have a friend in college that married the heiress of the Sonic drive ins of Oklahoma. What?
J.D. Ryan
Really?
John Clay Wolf
And it did not go well. Why can you tell they had triplets. Because they were having trouble getting married. I mean getting married. Getting pregnant.
DJ Pre K
Pregnant.
John Clay Wolf
The kids worked out fine, but the dad, so he had his princess and he owned like 50 Sonic Drive ins.
DJ Pre K
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And then son in law goes to work for him and it just ended so badly. It just. You know, sometimes you have the rich wife.
J.D. Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
And you go to work for the family and it ends well. And sometimes it doesn't end well. This did not end well.
DJ Pre K
Can you say how?
John Clay Wolf
Just a typical Oklahoma story. Just a power play. Oklahoma, crazy rich, living goofy driving fancy cars. And you know, he just was just Constantly put in his place like, you're lucky to be here. Right?
DJ Pre K
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
And he finally got sick of it and started revolting and he kind of was.
DJ Pre K
You're married into this money.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
Come on.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I did it too. The first round for yes. My first wife, her family had. They were kind of like sonic people. They own flea markets. And I remember them giving me a hard time about the used car business. I'm like, time out. I know that y'all, y'all. Y'all made so much money that, like, you're blue blood now and you know, you're above it all, but y'all are. Flea market.
DJ Pre K
Flea markets.
John Clay Wolf
Let's be honest. Flea markets. Yeah. You've got the biggest flea market, but Laundromats, flea markets, grocery stores. That's cool. I mean, I'm proud of you. I still am, but don't judge me.
DJ Pre K
Don't get me crap about it.
John Clay Wolf
I'm gonna take used cars over flea markets on the scumbag order of the totem pole.
J.D. Ryan
I'd much rather do tater tots and chili dogs, man. Absolutely.
John Clay Wolf
I don't know, man. That's funny, everybody. Yeah, it's. It's. If you're gonna marry a rich woman family, you need to be low key and not aggressive and not have a.
DJ Pre K
Lot of aspiration and maybe don't go to work for daddy.
John Clay Wolf
No. If you're, if you're. If you're gelded, yeah.
Gigi Drummond
You got to be a little bitch, basically.
John Clay Wolf
If you're gelded, it's fine. It's a great deal.
DJ Pre K
Enjoy the money, enjoy the ride.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. But if you want to prove anything for yourself and be your own guy, you're in the wrong spot. I learned that the hard way. Hard way, right. The more I succeeded, the worse it got. And that was really what happened. Anyway, we'll be right back. My name is John Claywolf by cars, the radio for America's best car buyer. Remember, we buy RVs, RVs, buses, travel trailers.

John Clay Wolf
Say it's better late than never to pay back.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
And one of our key fan club members, Savage Dog. Is he in Pennsylvania or Georgia? I think he's Georgia.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, dog, duh. Georgia Bulldogs. He just venmoed me. Or on the YouTube thing he on the chat at jcw show. 50 bucks. This is for jcw for losing the $50 bet on the Uga Bama 23 sec championship game. Sorry it's late, but if you want some vig, you'll have to send Turley to Jedi Force. Choke it out of me. Anyway, I got my 50 bucks.
J.D. Ryan
All right.
John Clay Wolf
Better late than never.
J.D. Ryan
Jedi Force joke.
Gigi Drummond
Or do you have it? Because it's going to rob.
John Clay Wolf
Right?
Gigi Drummond
You'll never see that money.
John Clay Wolf
I don't know where. Yeah, we have YouTube money coming in from the videos too. Like last month, I think we made 3,000.
DJ Pre K
Wow.
J.D. Ryan
What?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
Where's that going?
John Clay Wolf
No way. Yeah, to rob where it really goes is to pay the producer. Sure. You know, if I could get that money where it's offsetting the salaries of the production. That's great.
DJ Pre K
That's great.
John Clay Wolf
Rollins made half a million dollars last year just on YouTube. Yes. Yeah, these guys that are doing these big YouTube channels like, like Mr. Beast probably makes a hundred million a year. So those commercials that you're watching during the YouTube videos, they stop, you make, you watch commercial, you get a percentage of that. I think it's 10%. As the creator and they. They send you a check and you can go to your account and see where it's sitting. A million views, I think is about 2000 bucks. Makes sense something like that then. So Shakir Sanders is not doing well in the draft.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, boy. He's dropped off.
J.D. Ryan
How about that, man?
Gigi Drummond
Three rounds in, still available.
J.D. Ryan
Why?
John Clay Wolf
Because his dad is Dion and he's cocky and he's loud and they don't want the disruption. It's not simple.
J.D. Ryan
Well, you turned me. You turned me on to Colin Cowherd years ago, and he had some pretty good commentary on this on his show.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so this came out. Oh, boy.
J.D. Ryan
I can just already see the fence.
John Clay Wolf
Being built to protect Shador Sanders, who I like. Tom Pelissero, NFL Network, apparently wrote an.
J.D. Ryan
Article on Shador Sanders.
John Clay Wolf
Said a lot of good stuff, but there were multiple people who did not like Shadow or Sanders attitude.
J.D. Ryan
One of the quotes in the story.
John Clay Wolf
Was the worst formal interview I've ever seen in my life.
J.D. Ryan
He wants to dictate everything, what he's going to do, and it kind of makes you feel small. This is part of being in a quarterback.
John Clay Wolf
Remember we were warned about Kyler Murray's attitude?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, they were right.
John Clay Wolf
Cam Newton's ego, Johnny Manziel's focus. Yeah, they were right on all those. But the scouts, they're not just making stuff up.
J.D. Ryan
Still not drafted.
Gigi Drummond
And actually, I've got audio that I got from the Cleveland Browns. His actual appearance when he was talking to the coaches, this is what he said to them.
J.D. Ryan
You see this watch? Yeah. That watch costs more than your car. I made $970,000 last year. How much you make? You see, pal?
John Clay Wolf
That's who I am.
J.D. Ryan
And you're nothing.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, let's take that attitude.
John Clay Wolf
Pretty much. Right on, Mark.
J.D. Ryan
That's my name.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, He.
John Clay Wolf
He's.
Gigi Drummond
I say he's entitled, but I mean, with everything that he's gotten throughout his life, is he maybe.
John Clay Wolf
Would he be a great NFL quarterback? He is good.
Gigi Drummond
Yes. He's. I mean, he had one of the top, what, completion percentages in college football.
J.D. Ryan
So stat lines there is incredible.
Gigi Drummond
Good. He just has a little bit of an attitude.
John Clay Wolf
A little bit, Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, a lot.
John Clay Wolf
It's his dad's fault. Yeah. How much was he making at Colorado, Dino?
Gigi Drummond
I mean, it's millions.
John Clay Wolf
Nil money. Yeah, I know that. They built this presentation room for the draft, and he's got his brand everywhere. Legacy and money sign with two for. It's just. And he's sitting there, he has Nobody to talk to. Now, Quinn yours? Did you see his draft room?
Gigi Drummond
Yeah. Does he do some hunting or is.
John Clay Wolf
It his friend's place? Yeah, Quinn hasn't been drafted yet either.
Gigi Drummond
No, but he wasn't supposed to be drafted until day today. Basically he should be drafted in the fifth round or something like that.
John Clay Wolf
So what's that pay? What's the money on a fifth round or like 300 grand?
Gigi Drummond
I imagine it's the millions. I don't know.
John Clay Wolf
Those rookie contracts are not very. They're not as good as their nil money, that's for sure. I don't know.
J.D. Ryan
I'll bet there's a really wide swing depending on the team too.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I thought it was kind of locked in. I thought that there's tears. Yeah, there's tears. Of like this area is going to pay this on your rookie contract now you don't have to take it, right?
Gigi Drummond
Well, if you enter to the draft.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, you do have to take it.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, you're. I mean, you can't go back to college at that point.
John Clay Wolf
It's kind of. Kind of like selling that Lamborghini to Barrett Jackson. Once you sign the contract, if you don't get that, get the car to them, I think you still have to pay the commission on the estimate.
Gigi Drummond
I don't know if they're paying anything back and as far as. But they're. No, they're committed at that point.
J.D. Ryan
So.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, no, that was. He's. He'll get drafted. I mean, it's just. He's gonna have to wait and it's gonna be. He's gonna have a chip on his shoulder though, too, which I think is gonna be good.
John Clay Wolf
You know, this really reminded me of the David Chappelle racial draft. That was the best piece of comedy 20 something years ago.
DJ Pre K
20 years ago.
John Clay Wolf
Was it 20 or 20?
DJ Pre K
21. 21.
John Clay Wolf
21 years ago, hands down. And who I did not even realize who's one of my favorite comedians right now is Bill Burr. A very young Bill Burr was a commentator on that piece. And it never hit me until. Was he on Chappelle a lot?
Gigi Drummond
I don't remember him a lot.
John Clay Wolf
It was funny. Do you have anything we can play on?
Gigi Drummond
Oh, yeah, yeah, let's play. Let's go to the draft for. Folks don't remember this. This was. It was a little controversial back then, but now it's not.
J.D. Ryan
Good evening and welcome to the first and maybe only racial draft here in New York City. Folks, this is for all the marbles. What happens here will state the Racial standing of these Americans once and for all.
John Clay Wolf
That's right. And the crowd is here to support their races.
Gigi Drummond
Believe it or not, the blacks have actually won the first pick.
J.D. Ryan
Wow. That's the first lottery a black person's won in a long time, Billy.
Gigi Drummond
Yes, and they'll probably still complain.
J.D. Ryan
Man, you black representative is heading to the microphone now. Why don't we take a listen? Black delegation to Tiger Woods.
John Clay Wolf
No surprises there, huh? The richest and most dominant athlete in the world. Despite father black, his mother tied. Well, it doesn't matter anymore, because now he is officially black. Dave, the Asians have got to be upset.
J.D. Ryan
There's no question about that, Robert. But he ought to think about it. He's been discriminated against in his time. He's had death threats and he dates a white woman. Sounds like a black guy to me.
Gigi Drummond
So that's 21 years ago, that one there now. Well, who did the Jews pick?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, here come the Jews. Why don't we take a look downstairs today?
John Clay Wolf
We, the Jewish people, take Lenny Kravitz. God, I wish he played melancholy Kravitz. Folks, he's actually half black and half Jewish. His mother was on the Jeffersons, a pivotal show in black culture. And his father, a Jew, was her lawyer. Couldn't make that up. Well, Lenny is all Jewish now.
Gigi Drummond
Here's the Asian delegation.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, the Chinese delegation is up next, although they're the last. They've been waiting with Zen, like, patience.
J.D. Ryan
My guess is Yao Ming. He's been spending a lot of time with blacks, learning slang and talking. If you're not careful, they might lose them.
John Clay Wolf
The Asian delegation chooses the Rizza, the Jizza. Inspector Dex Gold, stage killer.
J.D. Ryan
The Wu Tang Clan.
John Clay Wolf
But I have dusted with my own two ears.
J.D. Ryan
This is by far the biggest upset of the nightmare.
John Clay Wolf
The Chinese delegation pulling a fast one and choosing the entire Wu Tang Clan.
Gigi Drummond
And then, of course, the white delegation.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, guess whose turn it is. White people. Let's see what direction they go in. Halle Berry is still available, as is Mariah Carey's crazy ass. Thank you all.
J.D. Ryan
Good afternoon. Excuse me. Pardon me. Hey, will you cut the malarkey?
John Clay Wolf
Thank you.
J.D. Ryan
Damn. We, the white delegation, are very proud to announce our pick this year, Colin Powell.
Gigi Drummond
Colin Powell is not white.
John Clay Wolf
He's not even an eighth white.
J.D. Ryan
He's 100% black. Wow.
John Clay Wolf
I gotta wonder how the blacks are.
Gigi Drummond
Gonna be taking this one.
J.D. Ryan
We, black delegation, except the white delegations, offer to draft Colin Powell on the condition that they also accept Condoleezza Rising part of the day.
Gigi Drummond
So 21 years ago.
DJ Pre K
That's so good.
John Clay Wolf
What would it be today? Do you have any background music?
Gigi Drummond
Well, I know for me, since, you know, you think I'm Jewish, right?
John Clay Wolf
So you can be the Jewish delegation. Jewish delegation, the white delegation. Gigi can be the black delegation, and Babo is the Asian and Hispanic delegation.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, Asian and Hispanic.
Gigi Drummond
As the representative of the Jewish delegation, we're going to take Weird Al Yankovic.
DJ Pre K
Oh, nice.
Gigi Drummond
Now he's not Jewish.
John Clay Wolf
He's.
Gigi Drummond
Everybody thinks he is. He's kind of. He's got Siberian in him, stuff like that. But it's close enough because I think it's time to bring back his comedy. That kind of comedy. It's. It's time. So we're going to take him in.
John Clay Wolf
How many years ago was that when we spent a day with Weird al? Was that 15 years ago?
Gigi Drummond
It was 2012 and 11 or 11 around there.
J.D. Ryan
2010. 2010, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And I had to run him to his in laws house in Dallas and he bought them a house and he was plenty simple guy. He was fun. Okay, what about Hispanic delegation? Hispanic or Asian?
Gigi Drummond
Are they gonna go there?
J.D. Ryan
Asian.
Gigi Drummond
Let's go to the Hispanic one. We have to have get Juan Solo. Or is it Juan Solo here? Is it Tommy, Tony, Romo's dad?
John Clay Wolf
It's one of the same.
J.D. Ryan
I was part of the espawning that I guess, you know, we elect the AOC Alexandria Cortez.
John Clay Wolf
Are you bringing her all the way over?
J.D. Ryan
Who cares? All right, take her because she is a more beautiful and less crazy than the Lauren Bow between we all say lovely. She's a lovely woman.

John Clay Wolf
John in Port St. Lucie, Florida. You've got three cars you want to sell or you have three cars you want to know which one you should sell?
J.D. Ryan
Yes. Correct. Good morning.
John Clay Wolf
What do you, why do you have three cars for one man?
J.D. Ryan
I'm a car guy. I love cars.
John Clay Wolf
Well, what is your qualifier on which one to sell?
J.D. Ryan
Well, they're all, I'm biased, but they're all cream puffs.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
And I'm thinking of downsizing to two and they all have an element of fun factor. And. But if you were in my position as a 64 year old, okay. And you want to keep the vehicles long term, which one would you part with?
John Clay Wolf
Okay. He's got a 19 BMW 330 convertible, a 23 Alfa Romeo Stelvio and a 21 Tesla Model S. Plaid. I would definitely sell the Tesla. You've got to keep the convertible. You live in Port St Lucie for a reason. You have more convertible days than anybody in the country.
J.D. Ryan
That's true.
John Clay Wolf
So you're really doing yourself a distinguish. You've got to have that convertible. Right. The Stelvio is good SUV to, to do your work in and do your real travels in the Model S is it's still worth something and it's fast and you're lucky you haven't wrecked it yet or gotten a ticket.
J.D. Ryan
Now the last question that the Tesla, that is the future though, right? The other ones are combustion engines.
John Clay Wolf
No, I think the future is combustion engines. I think the, the whole. Yeah, I think I've been saying all along, I think the EV thing is a hype and a craze and it's not real. And in the manufacturers are now falling in line because they realize that people don't want them. You have a hot rod that plaid is I. The first one I ever wrote in was with Jay Leno. He got one before everyone else. It literally rips your neck off.
J.D. Ryan
Yep. It's so fast, but it's a straight line car.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
J.D. Ryan
The Alpha is a lot more fun to drive, but go ahead. I'm sorry.
John Clay Wolf
Sure. No, I mean, that car's still worth 50 something. The plaid. 50 grand. Just call it 50 grand. And you gave 80 for it, right?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I paid even more than that. But I understand what's going on in the marketplace. So it's not. That's not an issue. It's really.
John Clay Wolf
Money's no issue.
J.D. Ryan
64 years old. Two cars is enough. Go ahead. I'm sorry.
John Clay Wolf
No, I'm just playing with you. I would, I would, I would keep those two and I'd sell the plaid and go to givemetheven.com if you want to sell it. And we will bid it low. 50s is the number on that car.
J.D. Ryan
Thank you.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you, John. My name is John Clay Wolf by Cars on the Radio for America's best car buyer. GiveMeTheVin.com Be right back.

DJ Pre K
I was.
John Clay Wolf
Trying to bring a girl home from.
J.D. Ryan
A bar the other night and she said, I'd invite you over but my place is kind of messy. And I was like, yeah, that's not a deterrent. At 3:30 in the morning, I can't imagine walking into her apartment and being like, absolutely not. If you fold these sheets, we could talk. But without a duvet cover, not happening. Of course your place is a mess. If you're willing to have sex with me, I'm gonna assume your whole life is in shambles.
Bobby Brown
So, the John Clay Wolf show, America's largest weekend morning show. 800, 800 radio. Check out the podcast@jcwshow.com we were earlier.
John Clay Wolf
Celebrating 21 years of some Chappelle comedy, talking about the NFL draft and playing with the Chappelle's racial draft. If you're just tuning in, if you don't know what we're talking about to take too long to set it back up. But we were doing a current day version of that. And Turley picked for the Jewish delegation, Weird Al Yankovic.
J.D. Ryan
That's a good one.
John Clay Wolf
Babo for the Hispanic delegation picked AOC and Alessandria Cortez. What's her name? We snores.
J.D. Ryan
Aocacio. Alexandria Oscacio Cortez.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, Think so. She's full blown Hispanic now.
DJ Pre K
Ocasio.
J.D. Ryan
Ocasio. Thank you.
John Clay Wolf
You need music, we need the Asian delegation. God, Turley's just really pushing it. Isn't he just pushing It.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, oh, it's Tiger Woods.
J.D. Ryan
Mommy Chong. Oh.
John Clay Wolf
So the Latins are going to have to let him go.
J.D. Ryan
This is very good idea you have at this time. Can we participate in partnership? Oh, yes.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. For the white delegation, we would like to pick Barack Obama full time, white.
DJ Pre K
Guy outside the box call.
John Clay Wolf
And Ms. Gigi Drummond. Who is the pick for the African American delegation.
J.D. Ryan
For the African American delegation, we would like to pick Elon Musk. Yes, we would.
John Clay Wolf
Now why is that?
J.D. Ryan
Because he's got 14 different children and by four baby mamas, he can't get more black than that.
John Clay Wolf
And he is from Africa.
J.D. Ryan
That's right. He's a true African. African.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. South Africa.
Gigi Drummond
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Didn't I got a note, a last minute note. You'd like to have a second choice also?
J.D. Ryan
Yes, we would. Yes, we would.
John Clay Wolf
Who's your second pick for the K? Pre K.
J.D. Ryan
Because he does rap music and he makes videos.
John Clay Wolf
Kyle flipped to pre K. That's right.
DJ Pre K
Officially black.
Gigi Drummond
I'm honored. I'm honored, I really am.
John Clay Wolf
But I gotta stay white.
Gigi Drummond
I like how I'm currently treated by the police.
John Clay Wolf
Ease up, everybody. Ease up. Pre K. I was, you know, I'm way behind on the times on rap, obviously, but I came across a rapper named Logic.
Gigi Drummond
Wow, you are. Oh, boy.
John Clay Wolf
That's how wide I am it. Pre K's dying laughing. You got to put it on him if we're talking to him, Kyle. And what he. He can. He can rap as well as Eminem, can he?
Gigi Drummond
Oh, yeah, you think so?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Well, okay.
Gigi Drummond
I'm glad that you're finding some, some new rap music that you dig, even though it's not that new.
John Clay Wolf
And he's not even doing it anymore, is he?
Gigi Drummond
He does stuff, you know, he had. He had his moment where he had that like, big song about the suicide hotline. What was it it? Five years or so ago. And he's put out stuff, you know, constantly since then. But you know, he falls in that same Eminem category for me. Man, he's corny.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Yeah. You don't like the other white rappers?
Gigi Drummond
I like Paul Wall.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, I see that Ice Cube poster behind your head and it reminded me I was watching Shaquille O'Neal's podcast on YouTube and he had Ice Cube son interviewing him about how he portrayed his father in Straight out of Compton. Have you seen that? Straight out of Compton or the interview with. I have not. It is incredible. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Gigi Drummond
O'Shea Jackson Jr.
John Clay Wolf
He's great in. In the fact that his dad made him Try out for it for a year. Got turned down four times. But, yeah, it's worth watching for sure. He's. He quit school. He was at Southern California just to get ready for this piece, and then he didn't get it. So he's like, man, my life's coming apart. I didn't get the role. How do I not get the role of playing my own father? And I'm an actor.
Gigi Drummond
He looked just like him, too.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah. I mean, it wouldn't have worked without him.
Gigi Drummond
Ice Cubes going back on tour, by the way. John Clay Wolf show outing. Team bonding exercise to the Ice Cube concert. Fort Worth, Dickies. Ice Cube will be there. Yes.
J.D. Ryan
No way.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
That'll be like, when I went to the Janice Jackson concert and I left my snuff behind. I was trying to find a dip that was not available.
Gigi Drummond
You'd be surprised. I think. I think because I've been to Snoop concert and there's enough white folk there.
John Clay Wolf
I have been. I have not had regular tobacco snuff in six weeks. These. These fake ones, Zins kind of things. Yes, rogues and zins. And they're definitely itching. The scratch, actually, now I see, like, I have this can of Copenhagen straight that I've had sitting here for two months. Haven't touched it. When I look at it, it kind of makes my stomach turn.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
After doing that all the years since seventh grade, it's very odd.
J.D. Ryan
I understand. It's a lot harder than smoking to quit, man.
John Clay Wolf
I just didn't realize. But. But I haven't quit because I just switched to this other stuff. They say nicotine is good for you, and that. How the hell can nicotine be good for you? I mean, that's got to be a farce.
J.D. Ryan
I don't know. My doctor. My doctor gave me dissertation, and he was. He was serious. He's like, that nicotine man will slow. Totally kill you. I'm like, I don't know, but it's delicious.
John Clay Wolf
If you Google up, is nicotine good for you? You'll see.
Gigi Drummond
And it's by who?
John Clay Wolf
Who's probably the people selling these little pouches.
DJ Pre K
The new stuff still has nicotine?
John Clay Wolf
Oh, absolutely. It's a nicotine pound.
DJ Pre K
Why is it better for you?
John Clay Wolf
Because it's not tobacco. All right, so you're dipping flavored nicotine.
DJ Pre K
Oh.
Gigi Drummond
So it's not gonna rot your teeth out and stuff like that.
John Clay Wolf
It's like the patch for smokers. But, yeah, it does work. Okay. My name is John Claywolf by cars and radio for America's best car buyer. And the good times are right here. Big cash giveaway.

Gigi Drummond
Yeah, they play today. 8:30.
John Clay Wolf
They're up 2 to 1 right now over the Colorado Avalanche.
Gigi Drummond
You went to your first hockey game in a while, haven't you?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it was really fun.
Gigi Drummond
What did you find out when you went there?
John Clay Wolf
It's cold there. It's cold in. This drunk guy just went down and bought everybody in the box jerseys.
DJ Pre K
What?
Gigi Drummond
Well, that ain't cheap.
John Clay Wolf
No.
Gigi Drummond
They're called sweaters, by the way.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, well, that was very nice. You want us, you want a jersey? I mean, they're awesome. And I sent him money. He didn't ask for it, but, I mean, I just couldn't take that.
Gigi Drummond
They're almost 200 bucks a piece.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, right. He gave us two. My son and myself was like, Jesus Christ. But it did save the day. And they were awesome jerseys. And I'm really happy to have sweaters. I've never been a jersey guy.
DJ Pre K
Sweater.
John Clay Wolf
So the hockey players call them sweaters.
Gigi Drummond
Sweaters? Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Their jerseys are sweaters. Yes. Sweaters are made of wool. These are not made of wool.
Gigi Drummond
They call us sweaters. It's just a Canadian thing. That's where it comes from.
John Clay Wolf
These jerseys have, like, hooks on them. I mean, they're real heavy. They're not the fake ones.
Gigi Drummond
They're real sweaters that you use in the game.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Gigi Drummond
They're. The hooks are for your pads. So you can hook them to your pads and Stuff.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, well, all the people in the stands need those to hold their belts up, I guess. Or have their belts.
Gigi Drummond
You notice that people wear hats, like toboggans or whatever.
John Clay Wolf
Cold.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, because it's cold.
John Clay Wolf
It's extremely cold. I had no idea it'd be that cold. You have to.
Gigi Drummond
To keep the ice cold.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, it's 100 degrees, it's 80 degrees outside, and it was cold.
Gigi Drummond
It's great for the ones that are behind the glass. The ladies are from Dallas.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, Frosties.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, yeah. Yeah, you'll notice that too. Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah. You're a little frosty.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Everything was perks up and wakes up.
Gigi Drummond
Yep. Yes, it does.
John Clay Wolf
That's good. Remember that scene from Kingpin when she got the beer out of the freezer? Oh, yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
Gigi Drummond
Who can forget that?
John Clay Wolf
So the Lakers are doing well?
Gigi Drummond
Yeah. They lost last night, though.
John Clay Wolf
They did. I thought we won.
Gigi Drummond
No.
John Clay Wolf
Will you listen to me?
Gigi Drummond
I know. I'm a Luca fan too. I know. Yeah, he had a stomach bug, so he didn't play very well.
John Clay Wolf
Did he poop himself?
Gigi Drummond
I don't know if he pooped himself. He didn't play well. They only scored 17 points.
John Clay Wolf
You know those Russians and their digestive system.
Gigi Drummond
He's not Russian, but okay. It's close enough, but yeah, I think he'll be fine. It just. I wonder if. You know, I've heard this happen before because they're in Minnesota and so maybe somebody at the hotel gave him some bad food. It's happened.
John Clay Wolf
When did it happen?
Gigi Drummond
Last night. I mean.
John Clay Wolf
No, I mean. But when did that happen? In the past where they were. They poisoned the player.
Gigi Drummond
There's been Michael Jordan. The whole flu thing, that was something. He wasn't really the flu. It could have been somebody poisoned his food. I mean, there's. It's. Yeah, there's been rumors and never.
John Clay Wolf
That makes sense.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, yeah, yeah. That's. You have to be careful when a team of visiting team stays at a hotel. They have to check all that stuff beforehand because fans are rabid, man. They'll do crazy things.
John Clay Wolf
Right. So do you think this NBA playoff is the final game in real life?
Gigi Drummond
What do you mean?
John Clay Wolf
Ant versus Luca.
Gigi Drummond
No.
John Clay Wolf
If they were on opposite. In opposite leagues, do you think that they would be meeting at the final?
Gigi Drummond
No, no, no, no. Yeah. No, they're. They're two good teams. Yeah. But I like the Lakers, but I don't think. They don't have a big man, so I don't. They're not. This year is not the year for them to win it.
John Clay Wolf
They don't have a big man.
Gigi Drummond
No, they don't, because they traded him away. But they. You need.
John Clay Wolf
But LeBron's not a big man. He.
Gigi Drummond
He can rebound and Luka can rebound, but you got to have that force down low, and they just don't have that. Can they make the Finals? Yeah, I mean, they. Their path is.
John Clay Wolf
How did. How did the Mavericks do it last year?
Gigi Drummond
They had two big men.
John Clay Wolf
So Boston, LeBron and Luke are not big men?
Gigi Drummond
No, not big enough. For that, you need a center. The teams that have that are left in the West, Western Conference, the Nuggets, which are down right now, you know, Jokic is. He's a big man. But on the east coast, on the Eastern side, there's. There's a lot of big guys. And Boston's probably going to be in the finals again. I'd be shocked if they weren't. So it'd be great, though, if it's the Lakers versus Boston. You know, here's what I love. I would love, right, for the Lakers to win it.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Gigi Drummond
And the Dallas fans to throw a parade for Luca. But that would be so great just to have them.
J.D. Ryan
That's not that unrealistic.
DJ Pre K
No, seriously.
Gigi Drummond
Just to rub it in their face. Oh, Nico's face, in fact. Was it. There's a clip out there. Houston was. Even their owner was jumping on that bandwagon. What clip was that number again in the system here?
J.D. Ryan
Might be four.
Gigi Drummond
I'm trying to find it here.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, Gigi, that Elon Musk stick that you came up with was pretty funny, by the way.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, thank you.
John Clay Wolf
That was all Gigi.
Gigi Drummond
Ah, here it is. 5. So the Houston owner was talking about. He was at a. What was he at there?
J.D. Ryan
Houston Cougars, their NCAA Final Four.
Gigi Drummond
And he was there talking about how he met Trump and had a conversation with him.
John Clay Wolf
I was in the White House, in the Oval Office with the Prime Minister of Italy and the President last Thursday.
J.D. Ryan
And we talked about the Houston Cougars, I can promise you, for at least a minute and a half.
John Clay Wolf
And then we talked about that dumbass.
J.D. Ryan
Luke Doncic trade, that Dallas.
Gigi Drummond
I mean, everybody's talking about. Trump's talking about it, too, how dumb it was.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
Has he been fired yet?
Gigi Drummond
No, he's still around.
DJ Pre K
Why?
Gigi Drummond
They're going to give him a year to make his point, because last this past year, well, everybody was injured.
DJ Pre K
Well, he's made his point.
Gigi Drummond
We'll see. Yeah, his point's not.
J.D. Ryan
Well, pretend is a smooth dude, man. You know, he. He owns Landry's chain of restaurants, too. And he's. He's about to be the ambassador to Italy.
DJ Pre K
You want to do mail from jail?
John Clay Wolf
Sure.
DJ Pre K
I got one Johnny Cash in the stairway.
John Clay Wolf
Johnny Cash. I have a bag full of prisoner mail that I got at the post office box last week.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, that's good.
John Clay Wolf
I'll give it to you.
J.D. Ryan
We always want to hear from you out there if you're locked up like I used to be. Hello, I'm Johnny Cash. John. This week's mail from jail reads. Hey, John. Clay, I realize this might sound a little odd. I've been in federal prison for 12 years, several years now I've been an avid listener to your radio show Saturday mornings. I'm currently living in a mandatory federal halfway house. My main issue is my mother. She's in poor health and her 30 year old mobile homes dilapidated. She has used $15 a day's worth of gas for a generator just to have power there. Now her roof's caving in. She lives on $500 and some odd a month from Social Security. My question is, Mr. Wolf, is there anything you could do to consider getting together some kind of charity event to get my mother just a single wide trailer on her property for I'll be brutishly honest, too. I went to federal prison for selling narcotics. And I told myself I'd never ever sell drugs again. But hearing about my mother's lie, I suppose I would do another 20 years if that's what I had to do to fix this situation. Lord knows I don't want to do it. And I don't know why I felt so strong about reaching out to you, but I did. Maybe it was the good Lord of the universe telling me I should. Either way, I love your show. And even if I never hear a word about this, you still have a lifelong listener in me, Justin.
John Clay Wolf
Great.
J.D. Ryan
Keep up the good work and God bless y'all. Matthew Hayes Hutchins, Texas. Friends, if you got mail from jail, just send it on down the line to us here at P.O. box 471517. That is in Fort Worth, Texas. Zip code is 7, 61 or 7.
DJ Pre K
Do you get a lot of that to get people coming up asking you for money and things and help?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, you know, I mean, hey, I do run into that. And when people, you have to listen, I mean, they're at their show listeners, they're. They're taking this show in as a different way than what we think they are, some of them. And like this guy came up to me you know, my stepson got eaten by an alligator and his mother left me. And in your show, made me, got me through it. I mean, what do you say?
DJ Pre K
What do you say?
John Clay Wolf
Is that a real story?
DJ Pre K
What?
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
Gigi Drummond
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
And I've been in bad health. And listen to you guys in the. I mean, savage dog. You're like that. Look, I mean, look at your sob story. You finally got your money from the VA disability, now you're ready to party with us from the bike rally.
J.D. Ryan
First, I like to say fishel. I always wanted to say that. Quoting Tiger.
John Clay Wolf
So how did you get disabled and get the money from the va?
J.D. Ryan
What happened, Jeff? Yeah. I don't really know, but sciatica, Both sides, man. Dropped 80% on me.
John Clay Wolf
Sciatica. Nerve.
J.D. Ryan
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
What were you doing? What was your job?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I was radio tech. I wasn't. I was in the Clinton year, man. I'm. Yeah. I didn't do anything. I party. I got. I got paid beer money.
John Clay Wolf

John Clay Wolf
Like, what's that near.
J.D. Ryan
Valdosta?
John Clay Wolf
Give me a bigger town.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's not a whole lot. I mean, it's about 30 miles from Albany, maybe an hour away from Tallahassee.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, there you go. Tallahassee. I'm getting a lock on Tallahassee. Give me Tallahassee and Atlanta, and then I can figure it out from there. Thank you, sir. 8008-0072-3480-0800, radio Sam, in Colorado, you have 273 power strokes. And people keep telling your stupid. Keep telling you that you were stupid for thinking there were something.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, because I just. I was just offered about six months ago for my 99F350XLT crew cab. It's lacking a hundred miles of having 76,000 actual mileage on it. The guy offered me sticker for it.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Why didn't you sell it?
J.D. Ryan
Why? I don't want one of these new ones. They're no good. I've already had a 16 and got rid of it. Nothing but headaches.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
I love the horsepower in them, but too much electronics.
John Clay Wolf
True.
J.D. Ryan
My two. My tooth. My 2000 has 42,000 on it. It's a 250 crew cab lariat. And my trucks aren't junk. No rust, never been wrecked.
John Clay Wolf
So you just calling to brag about your trucks?
J.D. Ryan
Yep. That's about all. Well, I guess I was at Phil Long Ford here in Colorado here a couple weeks ago. Yeah, they offered me 10 grand for my 99 and I just stuck a new steering box in it. And I laughed at him. I said, why don't you just punch me in the mouth instead of insulting me.

John Clay Wolf, Good morning, Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego. Glad you got your ass out of bed. Turn this on. How's it hanging? Hey, I was talking earlier about that YouTube money and I'm during the break, I was looking at some things. Starting May 12, 2025, automatic ad slots will be added to your videos that contain manual mid roll ad slots. These guys are taking over the television network. Yeah, I mean it's really getting weird in the younger generation. This is the. Their television. YouTube. That's for real?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, no, absolutely. I watch a little YouTube these days.
John Clay Wolf
Right. Our old asses are kind of coming around it too. And these guys that put up their videos at a specific time on a specific day, it works. It's the damnedest thing. I mean, and some of these guys whistling diesel, I mean they've got a gazillion followers and a gazillion views. It. It's really weird. Like on our YouTube channel, what percentage of viewers do you think? Look on their phone or a tablet. Tablet, slash computer or a television.

Television. 78% of the people that watch our YouTube channel are watching it on a television display.
J.D. Ryan
It's there. That's what when I say I've been watching a lot of YouTube, I watch it on my TV, right? And they cut right away. I mean they stop in the middle of a sentence, do their commercial and then you can skip it. But you have to manually do that and that'll bring it back, right?
John Clay Wolf
Well, you have to wait like 15 seconds to skip it.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It counts down and then it says the skip button appears and then you can skip it. I watch like Bill Myers Club random and they just cut right away. It's terrible. We're used to better GG.
John Clay Wolf
Do you watch YouTube TV?
J.D. Ryan
All the time.
John Clay Wolf
Really?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Is it your main go to.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I go to YouTube first and I don't really watch TV, so. Yeah, I think you're right.
John Clay Wolf
Do you watch YouTube on your television or do you watch.
J.D. Ryan
Sometimes, but what I do is I cast it from my phone to my teeth to my tv. So. But no, but you don't have to have commercials if you get the premium.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
DJ Pre K
14Amonth, well spent.
John Clay Wolf
YouTube TV's 75amonth. Yeah, but it gets everything, all the channels right. It's like having a cable correct network.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, that's great.
DJ Pre K
It's weird, but 14 bucks is worth it. Skip the commercial.
John Clay Wolf
And the number one producer income creator and monetizer and viewed person, Mr. Beast.
Gigi Drummond
His story is amazing.
J.D. Ryan
Who is he?
John Clay Wolf
He's a young guy that started making these videos. He's about 14 and now he's about 20, in his late 20s or mid 20s. And he's a monster. I mean, he has these videos that get more views than any cable TV anything ever thought of. 20 million, 10 million. But what somebody else can explain it.
Gigi Drummond
He basically takes. He gets a certain amount of money and he wants to try to flip that money for something good. So like when he started out, he.
John Clay Wolf
Spends his money on the production and giveaway of his videos.
Gigi Drummond
Correct. So he's giving away the money. So I think he started off with a homeless person trying to, you know, give money to them and flip that to I don't remember how many views it gets. And then he takes that whatever money he monetized from YouTube and then takes that money again and does another bit. So it could be sticking a bunch of people in the room. And whoever stays the longest in the room, they get that money.
John Clay Wolf
Big game show stuff.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, it's all game show.
John Clay Wolf
But if you watch them, the production value is that of any major network. He has 60 people on his production.
DJ Pre K
Really?
John Clay Wolf
He's running a network out of a office in Dallas with 60 people with. That's big budget. And then he's got placed ads. So he gets his YouTube money. But then he has Sealy Posturepedic. All the beds are brought to you by Sealy. I'm making this up. But he does ad placement throughout these videos that he gets probably just as much if not more money than he gets from. He's turned into a television network. One guy with a computer, he's taking him down. Dude.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, it's weird.
John Clay Wolf
And I watched a video on him the other day and he talks very Straight. What I really liked about him is he talks like I talk about cars. People tell me all this stuff like, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is how you do it in the wholesale business. Sure, that's great. I love what you're hearing, hearing, but this is how you do it. And I was watching this interview with him. He's like, yeah, everybody shut up. Everybody's done, whatever. This is how you do it. And I really. It connected to me because I understand my craft. This sounds super cocky, but I'm kind of the Mr. Beast of the wholesale space.
DJ Pre K
Indeed.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. I'm the guy that really knows how to do this very well. And he is too. Now I'm listening to him talk, I'm like, well, it sounds just like me about my craft. And I was like, he's, he's telling everyone the exact truth of what he does. But it sounds so outlandish. Nobody believes him or they can't. He's laying it out there and nobody can copy it because he's so dialed in. But he's so crazy. He's like, he's like, in eight years this is what's going to happen. And my biggest thing is I've got to continue to be number one. He's. He's made enough money, doesn't care. So. So he just, he's just going to see how hard he can pour it on.
Gigi Drummond
I mean, his game, I'm surprised he hasn't run out of Diaz. But he hasn't. I mean it's just he's. I think you can catch his stuff on television now too. Maybe it's like certain networks. Not regular broadcast television. Cable. Yeah, there's like they can like, they.
John Clay Wolf
Like he needs replays. A replay.
Gigi Drummond
Not live.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, right.
DJ Pre K
Why would he need that?
John Clay Wolf
Have you seen any of these productions?
DJ Pre K
I have, yes.
John Clay Wolf
They're massive, multi million dollar production.
J.D. Ryan
Yep.
DJ Pre K
Network quality.
John Clay Wolf
Network quality.
DJ Pre K
And he's getting them the money the network wishes they can get. And the viewers.
John Clay Wolf
And I was watching this one thing, just learning and my kids like he just started repeating, telling me what was going to happen before it happened. He said, oh, I've watched this twice. It's an hour long.
DJ Pre K
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. We were reporting earlier on the Sonic in Oklahoma that was giving away Sonic driving in Oklahoma.
DJ Pre K
The actually the manager was arrested. She gave a 16 year old co worker an edible marijuana. Edible. And of course the girl had a reaction to it. Here's the police officer talking about it. Cut number 12.
John Clay Wolf
She was throwing up, being sick from all the stuff she ingested. I was just kind of taken back a little bit about why did you give it to her or whatever. How did she, how did she end up with it? You know, because she asked for it. It's just zero responsibility for anything. Not only a 16 year old, but also at a restaurant where they're going to be involved with people day long.
DJ Pre K
Right.
John Clay Wolf
Something bad is going to happen no matter what.
DJ Pre K
Yes, it is. Manager Darlene Durham was charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Surprisingly though, she did not. She was not really the subject of the Facebook beatdown that followed. Let's find out who it was though. Babo's got some.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. And you know what's ironic about this? They did not go after the lady who gave the teenager coming. They're going after the teenager, the girl. Rihanna says as a now adult who used to beg co workers for cigarettes and weed at the age of 16, I can honestly say I feel bad for this lady. Hashtag sorry, not sorry. Kendra said, When I was 16 in Tulsa, my manager at Wendy smoked weed with us in the office after we closed. That was many years ago. Parker said, free her. That's every Sonic or fast food restaurant ever. I promise. It's not just her. Kenneth wanted to come out and say, tell me you've never worked for Sonic without telling me you've never worked for Sonic. Jim says, can we get that on a double smash burger, please? And Jimmy, I bet she don't ask for another one. No, that chick can't hang.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, quick shout out. Givemetheven.com needs mechanics. We were hiring mobile mechanics. Go to jcw show.com and click email John and I'll forward it to the people doing the hiring.

I need parts changers. I don't need heavy line, I don't need transmission. We send the transmissions off, we send the motors off. But parts changers and electrical people. But all the good guys I've gotten are all like heavy management managers. They just want to manage. I'm like, I need people to manage. I don't need managers. We need mechanics.

J.D. Ryan
Because of the AEV hit.
John Clay Wolf

John Clay Wolf
What's on your mind, G?
J.D. Ryan
What is on my mind is that I could be gay for a day if they were a billionaire. Anyway.
Gigi Drummond
Just for a day.
J.D. Ryan
You'd be gay just for a day. We don't have to talk about it. I guess we'd go to Vegas, you know, because what happens there stays there. A woman in England caught her husband of 17 years and the father of their four children cheating in the Back of his dad's work van. So she got a video of herself, busted him in the act, and posted it online. Here is part of the monumental chewing out he got with the woman still there and his pants still around his ankle. Nickels cut 11. There you go. Look at van.
John Clay Wolf
We're done.
J.D. Ryan

Gigi Drummond
Well, John, do you need. How to explain what's happening here?
John Clay Wolf
Oh, a lot of ways.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, there's a lot of ways about it.
John Clay Wolf
And what is that big wheel looking thing? Is that like a handicap scooter? Something weird?
Gigi Drummond
No, it's a work van, so it's probably a work equipment.
John Clay Wolf
So is this like a plumbing? Like a snake that you'd run a plumber? Hey, I. Hang on. Dale. Dale. Dale. Dale. Dale, you there? Hey, I put a shout out for mechanics a minute ago. We need mechanics at our Duncanville location in our Anaheim, California. Where? Duncanville in Dallas. And Anaheim in California.
J.D. Ryan
Dallas.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Are you a good mechanic?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I've been. I did it. Believe it or not. It's been in my family since I was 12.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, I'll tell you something funny. So my manager that runs all this, that I'll put you in touch with, she's pretty spicy as you can imagine. She manages a lot of guys. And I sent her your number. I said, call this guy. I just took a picture of your number there. And she said, I figured. Now, after you put that shout out on the radio, every drunken retard hillbilly in the state is going to apply because they can change the oil in their driveway.
Gigi Drummond
I had Brandy.
J.D. Ryan
No, I. Actually, I can do. I could. No, I can do anything.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, good. So tell her that you are not a drunken hillbilly and you can do more than change oil, and she'll hire you.
J.D. Ryan
Okay. All right, I'll talk to her.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you. Bye.
J.D. Ryan
Thanks.
Gigi Drummond
You should have Brandy read that on air. Baba does a good Brandy impersonation.
J.D. Ryan
I don't care. Why did anybody do that? Why would anybody do that?
John Clay Wolf
Do what?
J.D. Ryan
Change your oil in the driveway. Get your driveway stained up. Go and pack your home value. That's what husbands are for. And you just take it to the reuben lube. Right? 65 bucks. 10 minutes. You'd rather crawl under there for 45 minutes? You should change your all.
DJ Pre K
She is gonna win.
J.D. Ryan
I was waiting for that.
John Clay Wolf
I'm sorry.
J.D. Ryan
Brandy, I love you.
John Clay Wolf
She's gonna get you.
J.D. Ryan
She's gonna kill me one of these days. That's gonna be the one that gets me.
John Clay Wolf
That will be the one. When you feel that knife go in your side, not your back, just your side. She'll just nick an organ.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, just quick at the kill shot.
John Clay Wolf
Right?
J.D. Ryan
Bill the Butcher Gangs of New York.

J.D. Ryan
It's a great feeling. That's what I've always said about Pearl Dobs.
DJ Pre K
But now I've got another reason for saying it. Pearl drop cinnamon and a breath freshening.
John Clay Wolf
Cinnamon taste with nicotine that leaves my whole mouth feeling as good as my teeth. It's a great feeling.
DJ Pre K
If you were between, say, 10 and 15, probably stirred something in you, did something for you. In fact, to a young man, it probably sounded more like this cut 7.
J.D. Ryan
It's a great feeling. That's what I always said about Pearl Dobs.
John Clay Wolf
It's a great feeling.
DJ Pre K
Stop it.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, Lisa in California. Lisa in California. There. Lisa, Lisa, Lisa. With the 04 BMW Z4 Roadster with 115,000 miles and a new transmission. Are you on the phone doing her pearl drops?

J.D. Ryan
Thank you for your time.
John Clay Wolf
No, just. If you'll go to givemetheven.com and just load that car up, take a couple of pictures. Take pictures of any problems, like if the top is torn or the windows discolored or the seats are torn. We know what good ones are. Oh, good, good. Then I'll get real close to the six. You're not off the money. All right, Go to.
J.D. Ryan

John Clay Wolf
Give me the vin.com. what. What part of California do you live in?
Gigi Drummond
I'm in seventh cal.
John Clay Wolf
Like O.C. or San Diego.
J.D. Ryan
And you're.
John Clay Wolf
I'm in near Anaheim Stadium. Oh, God. We have an office right there. Go Ducks. Yeah, it's right there at Tustin. Thank you so much. Thank you, man. Bye. My name is John Clay Wolf. California people call in and tell me what it's going to happen with the Lakers. I'm getting invested in this situation in their playoff games because y'all stole. My man Luca. Turley says that you're not going to go far because you don't have enough big men. I think LeBron and Luca are two big men. Tell me what you think. 800, 800, 7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800 radio. But Turley's just a Debbie Downer, man. He can't help it.
Gigi Drummond
I said they won't win the championship. I said they could go to the finals, though. Okay?
John Clay Wolf
You did not say they could go to the finals. You didn't think they. You said they're not even going to win this round.
Gigi Drummond
No, I.
J.D. Ryan
God.
John Clay Wolf
We'll be right back.
Bobby Brown
Yo, we're back to the John Clay Wolf show, taking over your radio every Saturday morning. Hit em up. 800, 800 radio. This is the John Clay Wolf Show.
John Clay Wolf
They were great. They were great. We didn't even realize how great they were.
J.D. Ryan
I'VE come on to guns n roses heavily of late. That's my. That's my walking music these days.
Gigi Drummond
That's a fast paced walk.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, Dennis and cal, you there?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I'm there.
John Clay Wolf
Ironically, I bought this car. Well, tell me, is the body style between a 1965 and a 1966 El Camino the same body style? I'm not sure about 66. You're right.
J.D. Ryan
I. Yeah, quite sure.
John Clay Wolf
Let me pull up a picture. 1965 El Camino. I'll hit images. Yes, same body. Okay. You. You can find this online. I don't know if. Do you ever watch the Barrett jackson TV show?
J.D. Ryan
Yes, I do.
John Clay Wolf
I bought this car with a 454 swap yesterday in. In West Palm. And I gave 14 grand plus the buy fee of 10%. So it's showing. Sold for 15 4. Bought the same rig in front of God, TV cameras and everybody. You have a 65 El Camino with a 454 swap. Great condition. Wants 18 grand. Yeah, I'll try it again at 15 if you. Me do. I mean, I'll double down, See if I'm right or wrong. I don't know. Normally when I get a car bought at a big auction like that, it doesn't make any money, to tell you the truth.
J.D. Ryan
Gotcha. This thing is so sweet, so clean. Been setting for eight years. Never no accidents. It's got a hood scoop. Fiberglass hood with a small hood scoop on it. And it comes out the back by the windshield.
John Clay Wolf
Does it have air conditioning?
J.D. Ryan
It has air conditioning on it. A6 compressor. The big old long one.
John Clay Wolf
And the person that sold it for 14,000 at the auction yesterday, they got a check for 10% less than that.
J.D. Ryan
I see.
John Clay Wolf
Because they charge 10% sale fee and 10% buy fee. Talk about a racket. Can you imagine selling other people's product on an absolute level? Absolute sale, and you get 20% vig. I mean, yeah, we work on like 3% net. They get 20. Now, it cost them a million dollars to put that show on, so that's, you know, they have a lot of risk there, so you can't knock them for that. But if you'll take 15 grand for it, I'll buy it.
J.D. Ryan
I'll do it.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Well then. Sold.
J.D. Ryan
All right.
John Clay Wolf
How far. How far are you from? Anaheim?
J.D. Ryan
A ways.
John Clay Wolf
Where?
J.D. Ryan
I'm in sunland. San fernando valley. Sunland.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. And. Oh, San fernando valley. Okay. So you're up by galpin?
J.D. Ryan
Kind of, yeah, kinda.
John Clay Wolf
All right. Our closest office will be burbank. You can take it over to our. You can take it over to our Burbank office. We actually rent space from the KOLS people at the studio. They have a whole floor in a building there off Olive. And we have. We have an office inside of their setup. So I'll have somebody reach out to you. I've got your number here. I just took a picture of it and sent it to Albert, and he'll call you and y'all wrap it up.
J.D. Ryan
All right. Sounds good. Thanks a lot, John.
John Clay Wolf
Mm. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Dave in San Diego, California, has financial advice for JD Ryan. JD, we were talking about you and all your Money last week, JD's Millions and what you're doing with it. Dave, do you have some sound financial advice?
DJ Pre K
Yes. Dave, what do you got?
John Clay Wolf
Well, I'm just.
J.D. Ryan
I wanted to revisit it because he said he inherited $250,000 10 years ago.
Gigi Drummond
And even if you just put it in a basic S&P 500 IRA and didn't add anything to it, it should.
J.D. Ryan
Have more than doubled by now. It should be worth 5 or 600,000.
Gigi Drummond
Is that right?
J.D. Ryan
Not 30%.
John Clay Wolf
JD.
J.D. Ryan
That would be 2% a year if he only got 30% over 10 years.
DJ Pre K
Actually, it wasn't 10 years ago. I inherited the 250 about four years ago and another 250 another year ago. So this was CBS money. I put in the IRA and it's double. It's kind of about 3, 30%.
John Clay Wolf
Dave can do better.
J.D. Ryan
Maybe that's a little better than.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
I don't know. It just sounded terrible the way you said it.
DJ Pre K
It's a million bucks. I'm happy.
J.D. Ryan
You should be. You should be a bigger baller.
John Clay Wolf
Bigger baller. He does have nice shirts and fancy glasses at this point. Thank you, Dave.
Gigi Drummond
I think he's helping our stream too, because we had 10,000 views last week and he had that new shirt on. And of course the placeholder was JD's face with his new shirt.
DJ Pre K
That's probably why we got the 10,000 views.
John Clay Wolf
We try to put a video up at High Noon Central every Saturday or every other Saturday. And this week is going to be a little bit later. We have a great video that Braden put together of last week's event, but it won't be ready until afternoon, so you can get that at jcw. Show that, you know, what really happened is everybody drank too much. And I was watching the video and I'm like, dude. I mean, so and so slurring and this guy's slurring. Can you speed it up a little bit so that he had to go through and speed up the interview, the audio just a touch? Yes.
DJ Pre K
Hey man, let me ask you.
John Clay Wolf
I'll give you 3500 bucks for that right there.
J.D. Ryan
Sold.
DJ Pre K
But the event went well?
John Clay Wolf
It went very well.
DJ Pre K
It was crazy when I was down there.
Gigi Drummond
By the way, the JCW dip, very good.
John Clay Wolf
If you go to Bosky Cantina, ask for JCW dip. It is off the menu item and it is pretty good.
Gigi Drummond
And they're like, oh, so you know, John. I'm like, ah, you know, maybe. But no, no, we paid. It was, you know, not bad actually.
John Clay Wolf
Wouldn't have paid if J.D. ryan would have been with you, he would have started a march.
DJ Pre K
Oh my God. My God, I paid.
John Clay Wolf
Can't march very far. It's a little. It's pretty small town.
DJ Pre K
It's a great town though. So much fun.
John Clay Wolf
It is fun. It's like an aquarium. When we fill it up with people, it's like, ah, yeah. And I drove through there this morning. It's like, man, this is just a dusty little one horse town still. But it is fun to have events, cool places everywhere.
DJ Pre K
It really does.
John Clay Wolf
Had a good time last week, dude. I was smoked. I was so tired. I was.
DJ Pre K
You just go and go and go. I don't know how you do it at any age, but you just go constantly.
John Clay Wolf
I had a meeting with a fella in West Palm night before last and I'm bringing him on as a highline buyer. Maybe kind of high risk, you know, but most of those highline buyers that are good are high risk, to tell you the truth. And he asked me, so do you still need to do this? Like, no, right? Then why do you do it? And he like made me think, why are you doing.
DJ Pre K
Am I doing that?
John Clay Wolf
Why are you doing this to yourself? Why are you traveling all over the country? Get out of bed, run. Have two phones hanging off your ear. Everybody's banging on you, where I need you, I need you, I need you. I mean, why do I do it? I really.
Gigi Drummond
It's the junkie high.
John Clay Wolf
Is that what it is?
Gigi Drummond
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
I mean, yeah. If you quit this, dude, what would you do? Seriously?
John Clay Wolf
I'll tell you what happened. And I've said this before, but there's new listeners out there when I got hurt. So I was like this before. I was doing really well in my 20s and I bought some dealerships and I was really happy and satisfied. And then the world came crashing, right? Got Broke, had an embezzlement, got hurt, got divorced. Mother died. And I mean, it was. I was. I went from having wealth to being upside down, and it was. And I was in a wheelchair and crippled up. Catheter. I mean, I was screwed. And when I got out of that, I had that moment, you know, like life was over.
J.D. Ryan
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
Suicidal.
DJ Pre K
I get it.
John Clay Wolf
Just straight up mean, I wouldn't. You know, I was. And. And hopeless. Hopeless.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And when I got started coming back, I got so mad at it. I guess I just appreciated. I figured my lifespan would be short because they said people in wheelchairs, people with this kind of disability. Disability that had spinal cord injuries, you're not gonna live that long.
DJ Pre K
Okay. That's pretty bold of a doctor, because.
John Clay Wolf
You don't move very much.
J.D. Ryan
No.
DJ Pre K
No exercise, Right?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So your lifespan is going to be. I mean, you're going. Your lifespan is going to be shorter. So do all with it that you can. And I've. I think I've overdone that prescription.
DJ Pre K
You definitely shot high.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. And then when it started rolling, I went through and I sent this email to my oldest son yesterday. I was randomly looking through old emails. I was looking through. I don't know what I was doing, but I saw this email from 10 years ago that I sent to Bob Holland's head. And it was the plot of all this, because I've been doing this car thing for 30 years, but the past 10 years, you know, Turley, I used to tell you what it used to be like when. When it was the good days, like in my 20s, when we were big, you know, this is 10 times bigger than that now.
DJ Pre K
Gotta be.
John Clay Wolf
And I never planned on this happening, but I was. Look, I wrote him this note of how we're going to attack this together and how we can take over and do this. Great. And I was looking, I was like, this is what happens.
DJ Pre K
Exactly what happened.
John Clay Wolf
And I sent that email to my son from 10 years ago, and I just labeled it Dreams Can Come True. And it's just kind of weird. So it's awesome. Yeah. I don't know.
DJ Pre K
But you go constantly. Do you ever wake up in the.
John Clay Wolf
Morning, It's a heart attack.
DJ Pre K
Hey, it's a Tuesday. What am I going to do today? You wake up in the morning going, I do. I gotta make a call. I gotta do this.
John Clay Wolf
This Is that right?
DJ Pre K
I mean, you got to wake up that way.
John Clay Wolf
I do, yeah.
DJ Pre K
Every single day. So my point is, if you. If you retired, you would really be lost. This is what keeps you Going, this is your juice.
John Clay Wolf
And what pisses me off is that the people that work with me because I'm not. We're not operating as high a level as we were during COVID Well, who the hell is Nobody. Everybody calling in doesn't have $10,000 equity anymore. You know, we were buying a third more cars back then because everybody was getting rich. We were getting rich. The customers were getting rich. The world was getting rich off of used car prices. And now, like, we know you just don't have that drive in you anymore, John, and you just don't really. You know, it's kind of like you're retired. I'm like, are you out of your effing mind? Are you crazy?
DJ Pre K
They must be. Anybody thinks you acting retired.
John Clay Wolf
One of the. I put out a long. I don't know if you saw what I put out on Facebook the other day. Said, hey, I'm hiring people. People. Yes, I'm dead. And I gave three options for three different gym. And I've got about 30 really pretty good candidates. And I just laid them all on the lady that said I'm acting like I'm retired. I said, you get on the phone with all of them and you start screening them out.
J.D. Ryan
There you go. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
She's like, are you serious? I'm like, absolutely. Because we're not retired.
J.D. Ryan
Right?
John Clay Wolf
Right. We did. We quit.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, hell no.
John Clay Wolf
We haven't quit. We went through this high of the car market. Now we're in now we've gone through the lull. We're at a baseline, and it's firm. I'm ready to add back, but. But going nuts during when it was going down was not the right move. No, it would have just lost money and worked the hell out of everybody. Do you know how hard everybody's working in titles? Transportation, mechanical, all this stuff during those booms. It's insane.
DJ Pre K
Insanity. Yep, yep, yep, yep.
John Clay Wolf
All right. We'll be right.
Bobby Brown
Yo. We're back to the John Clay Wolf show taking over your radio every Saturday morning. Hit him up. 800, 800 radio. 800, 800 radio. And check out the podcast@jcwshow.com or john claywolf.com Now, John Clay Wolf.
John Clay Wolf
You know, talking about those high line guys that are high risk, I've got this Lamborghini Murcielago going through Barrett Jackson tonight. Orange one that was down in the garage. Beautiful. I couldn't find that car for three months.
Gigi Drummond
I remember when it pulled up finally.
John Clay Wolf
Huh?
DJ Pre K
We couldn't find it.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, couldn't find it. Because the buyer that bought it was in a very high level of trust position. So I didn't micromanage his book. And he sent it to a fella somewhere to get a gated six speed conversion done to it. Because 5% of those cars were built with sticks and the rest of them were automatics. So the sticks are worth a lot more and people are converting them. But he didn't say lied about where the car was. And we're chasing all this stuff. We bought it up in Pennsylvania. I had to get a private investigator to find this car and I found it in Austin.
DJ Pre K
Holy.
John Clay Wolf
And I, and I contacted the guy and he's like, well, this belongs to so and so. I was like, no, it belongs to me. He was nice and I showed him all my documentation. I got the car back. I finally got it finished. It took three months. We had to pay the guy $50,000 for the conversion.
Gigi Drummond
Damn.
J.D. Ryan
Just a high. Is that a little high?
John Clay Wolf
It's. It. It didn't feel low.
J.D. Ryan
That feels a little hot.
DJ Pre K
Well said.
John Clay Wolf
But, but like so. So if that car is worth 250 grand with a con, with a six speed, it's worth 500 or 600 grand. But that's if it's a factory built. So if it's converted, it's worth, you know, 25% more than the 250. So you play the math there. But you know, what the hell was he gonna do with that car? Why was he lying to me about where it was?
DJ Pre K
But he was cool when she found him. He was all right. He wasn't trying to hide it or steal it.
John Clay Wolf
No, the guy that. Yeah, the buyer.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah, he was definitely hiding it. He's no longer with the firm. Oh, okay.
DJ Pre K
Well said.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it's just. It's just dealing with all these people in their lives place. It's tough. It's tough. Joe, Good morning. You're on the air. Good morning. What's up? I wanted to say thank you for buying me dinner. I did not know I bought you dinner. Who are you? I'm just a regular on the group chat. Okay, cool. Where did I buy you? Down to the bike rally. Oh. And to the car show. Happened to. Sit down. Yes, sir. I'm sorry, Car show? Yes, sir. Oh, cool. So how did it happen? How did you get a free dinner? Well, you know, it's kind of hard to get a table at the cantina. And I happened to grab a table and a few of your co workers, you know, in the corporate office sat down with Me. Mm. And we had dinner and I bought. Apparently I tried. Well, you didn't pay. You're welcome. And did you have a good time?
J.D. Ryan
It was a great time.
John Clay Wolf
That. That town, everything. The car show was awesome. I know the rain came in, but it was still a good time. And, you know, you could get a table at the cantina. For three hours? Well, yeah, because the town was just slam. I mean, the Cantina has about 80 seats.
J.D. Ryan
So it was.
John Clay Wolf
By the way, that cantina did.
J.D. Ryan
Best ribeye I've ever had.
John Clay Wolf
Those boys can cook.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, that thing that my son had, that.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it is good. Did I pay for that too?
Gigi Drummond
No, I paid for it.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, those boys can cook. They w6. I only have one drink. Okay. Well, ted Nugent's playing May 3, if you want to come back down at the Rattlesnake. And then we're having the bike rally May 15th through the 18th, so you might want to head back down for that if you're a Harley. We got silo. We got a silo.
J.D. Ryan
We'll be there.
John Clay Wolf
All right, well, then I'm gonna find you and you're gonna buy the bill. Yeah. All right, man. I'm glad. Have a drink on me. As I said, with acdc. Have a drink on me. Have a drink on me.
DJ Pre K
So next week? Next Saturday.
John Clay Wolf
Ted Nuggets. Next Saturday. I don't know if he's coming on the radio show or not. I haven't lined anything up. Bob O. Do you know?
J.D. Ryan
I'm not sure.
John Clay Wolf
Is he playing Saturday night?
J.D. Ryan
He's May 3rd.
DJ Pre K
May 3rd.
John Clay Wolf
So he's probably not gonna get up at 7 to come do the radio show. But I bet we can have him come over and do a pre. Record. Do a record that you never know.
J.D. Ryan
Have you watched him on. On his show on tv?
John Clay Wolf
I mean, he's up early.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, he's. He's. He's that guy.
DJ Pre K
He's that guy. Boy, is he.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I can tell you one thing. If he's in the studio, we don't want him early because you cannot get him to be quiet and you cannot get rid of it.
DJ Pre K
You can't get him to leave.
Gigi Drummond
Like, his songs are like 10 minutes long. He's gonna talk all.
John Clay Wolf
So we need him. If we have him on next week, we need to have him at the end so that it can end. Because if he comes early, he'll just take over the whole show.
Gigi Drummond
10:00'S a perfect time.
John Clay Wolf
No, 11:00.
Gigi Drummond
11, okay.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Dude, you've done some Good interviews. But this, I mean, Ted Nugent could be your best interview ever.
John Clay Wolf
I've had him. I've had him on the phone.
J.D. Ryan
Right, right. But I mean, the way he talks music and is. He's got an encyclopedic knowledge of recorded music.
John Clay Wolf
Well, if you want to hear 2 hours of that, then get him here at 10. If you want to hear 1 hour of that, get him here at 11. If you want to hear 3 hours of it, get him here at 9. Cuz he ain't stopping. When I've had him on the phone, I just put the phone down. I mean, I was like, I just let him go. Because he's got a lot to say. He's very political, he's very excitable, he's fun. But three hours, that's a lot.
J.D. Ryan
You've never seen him tired. I've never seen him tired. He's that guy.
Gigi Drummond
What is he, 70?
J.D. Ryan
Probably. He's up there, man.
Gigi Drummond
Keep going like that.
John Clay Wolf
Did I tell you about the guy that was the fake Ted Nugent? Did I tell you?
Gigi Drummond
Oh, yeah, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
She's 76 and we threw rattlesnakes on him.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. What?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, you didn't say, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Did I tell you what happened after the deal and we brought the snakes up and dumped it on the bar and scared the hell out of him? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, you think that's funny, being a fake Ted Nugent? We all went for it. Do you think this is funny? He did not think that. He did not think that was funny.
Gigi Drummond
Has he been around?
John Clay Wolf
I think he thought it was about as funny as we thought it was. Huh.
Gigi Drummond
Has he been back around?
John Clay Wolf
Nope, nope.
J.D. Ryan
I haven't seen him in weeks. Oh, my God. What did he do when you guys.
John Clay Wolf
And on the way out the door, one of his kids said, that's a real nice fake Lamborghini. I'm like, yeah, it's a fake Lamborghini. Fake Lamborghini. You get your ass out of here. Jesus Christ. Not everybody's always happy that listens to the radio show. Don't we have some. You just lost a listener.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, we do, we do.
DJ Pre K
Do we have time for it?
John Clay Wolf
We got four minutes is what that says.
DJ Pre K
All right, this comes from Rose Ramsey in Virginia. Oh, I bet y'all are just loving the fact that the government is bringing back all of these dangerous animals and beastly abominations. Remember the dire wolves we talked about?
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
DJ Pre K
Okay, first of all, wasn't the government. It was a private company that did it? Dire wolves are unruly and deserve to be left in history. So they don't disrupt the humans.
J.D. Ryan
You just lost a listener.
John Clay Wolf
Wow.
DJ Pre K
So they don't disrupt the human spirit. Let's see, what else? What do you get? What else are you gonna bring up? Trolls? Fairies? Dragons? Well, none of those exist. The world has enough freaks in it. We. We don't need the government bringing back a bunch of weird stuff. So you just lost a list.
John Clay Wolf
Who would take the time to do that to stop and write that diatribe?
DJ Pre K
Rose Ramsey of Virginia.
J.D. Ryan
Rose, you just lost a listener.
John Clay Wolf
Dinosaurs, man. Bring those back. That'd be cool.
DJ Pre K
Fairies.
John Clay Wolf
We're in the middle of dinosaur country here. Glen Rose, Texas, is the highest population of dinosaur fossils in the world. Don't know why, but it is. Dinosaur Valley State Park. Dinosaur this and it. When you come to Walnut Springs, you'll see all this dinosaur stuff because it's dinosaur crazy.
DJ Pre K
You see these great big six, eight, ten foot dinosaurs everywhere you look.
John Clay Wolf
There are prints out here that are real. They look fake because they're so clean. I don't understand. They're real.
DJ Pre K
And they found a lot of fossils. I mean, full size.
John Clay Wolf
I know a guy that got $16 million for full size T. Rex on his ranch.
DJ Pre K
Damn.
John Clay Wolf
They were plowing the field and hit a couple of bones. I mean, how many years ago was this? When.
DJ Pre K
Six million years ago. Dinosaurs.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, it's hard. It's hard to carbon date anything that's older than all carbon.
John Clay Wolf
How does. How does the. How do the bones not deteriorate in the soil in 6 million years? They're fossilized. Yeah. Somebody call and explain. We're stupid. 800. 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800. How the hell.
DJ Pre K
Excuse me. 65 million. I'm wrong?
J.D. Ryan
Is that what they're saying?
DJ Pre K
65? Yep, that's what it says right here.
Gigi Drummond
I'm sure there's some technical stuff that we need to know about.
John Clay Wolf
800 radio, if you know what you're talking about. Somebody make us smart. Because I'm stupid.
J.D. Ryan
There's a museum 40 miles away where they've got like a whole display and they've got like dinosaurs with saddles and people riding them.
John Clay Wolf
And so I understand if they get fossilized and turn into rocks.
DJ Pre K
Rocks.
John Clay Wolf
That makes sense.
J.D. Ryan
They petrify.
John Clay Wolf
But how the hell can they put them back together if they're rocks?
DJ Pre K
Well, with wires.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. But you've seen the recreations where they take the. The petrified bones and put them back together and they do make some fakes to finish the job. But they don't look like rocks. And if they don't look like rocks, how in the hell did they not deteriorate? And how does anybody got any weed? That's pretty stony.
J.D. Ryan
I saw a documentary with, with one guy who said these are actually our best guesses at design. But they find so many of the same bones and fit them correctly depending on state, you know, and condition, with so many other bones that fit next to them that they finally, after a thousand years figured out what a tyrannosaur really looks. Looks like. But this guy said a lot of these things that were constructed like in the 19th century, right? Are probably incorrect in places.
DJ Pre K
No.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
DJ Pre K
You stop that.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
DJ Pre K
How can we get something wrong?
John Clay Wolf
Car calls right now we're going to music break. Calling with the cars. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Give me year, make, model, miles, average rough or clean.

Bobby Brown
Now back to the John clay wolf show presented by.
Gigi Drummond
Give me the vint dot com.
Bobby Brown
Hit him up right now.
Gigi Drummond
Now.
Bobby Brown
1-800-800-Radio. 1800-800-radio. This is the John clay wolf show.
John Clay Wolf
And I'm going to bid these cars real quick for you guys all over the country for gim on behalf. All the bids are good@givemetheven.com Bobby in Florida. Hey, Bobby. Hey, hey.06 Magnum SRT8. So that's the little wagon, right?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I wouldn't call it little, but.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, it's the wagon. It's 95, 000 miles. Mopar Catback exhaust. Debating whether to keep it or trade it. I think it's a 10 grand rig with 90 on it. What do you think.
J.D. Ryan
Trade 10 probably is pretty fair. What do you think I'd fall in the private market?
John Clay Wolf
I trade for cash. I give cash, you give title. You know all these car dealers, the average retail profit in, in a car dealership on the front end is like twelve hundred dollars. Now they ask big prices, but, you know, that's the nada figure. The average retail profit for a used car dealer nationwide is twelve hundred dollars on the front end. Now they also can hold on the trade in and they also can make on the warranty and they also can make on the financing where they, you know, the bank gives them a buy rate of 8% and they sell it to you for 10. Then they make make 50 of the point spread on that loan. So that's how car dealers make their money is all those different components.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
All right. So if you want to sell it without all the BS that I just explained, go to givemetheven.com I'll give you 10,000.
J.D. Ryan
David? Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Are you Jewish?
J.D. Ryan
No, I am not.
John Clay Wolf
You're so tight. You bought the cheap Corvette. That's why I asked 23. The LT one. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
When I bought it, I had to order it and get the excess. Had just to wait on it.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, you had to take what you could get. I understand. 23. What, what color is it?
J.D. Ryan
It is the ceramic gray metallic.
John Clay Wolf
What is that in English?
J.D. Ryan
Just a light kind of gray that very, very shiny.
John Clay Wolf
It's like high yellow gray. 231 LT Z51. You sure it's a Z51?
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
DJ Pre K
Absolutely.
John Clay Wolf
I think it's 62, 000.
J.D. Ryan
You know, would you split the difference with me? About 63 and a half?
John Clay Wolf
I just don't think I'd make any money. I think I'm giving the bring money hoping that I squeak out a bit of profit. What was sticker on this car with the, the Z51?
J.D. Ryan
It was 76, I believe. Ish.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
God.
John Clay Wolf
They've come down a lot, but it's still really good if you think about it. I mean, yeah, I bought, yeah, I.
J.D. Ryan
Bought it just as a play car. And, and my daughter just applied to all dental schools in Texas, so I'm trying to put a little money back.
John Clay Wolf
Why is it your responsibility to pay for that? Are you still married to her mother?
J.D. Ryan
Take care of me in my old age?
John Clay Wolf
That's true.
J.D. Ryan
No, I am not. But I'm looking forward to somebody to take care of me when I'm old.
John Clay Wolf
What about her mother? Does she have money? Can she pay for dental school and you keep the Corvette?
J.D. Ryan
I like that idea.
John Clay Wolf
I like it, too. Let's get her on the phone right now. How long have y'all been divorced?
J.D. Ryan
We've been divorced for almost three years.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, that's pretty fresh still. Why don't you get your father to handle it? Once you call your father, you know your father's got money. He can handle it. What about you, baby? You got some money, too. Why don't you handle it for a change? You're the one that had to go cheat and leave. Why don't you pay for something? I'm done paying for them. This damn thing.
DJ Pre K
Jesus, man, you're in my mind.
J.D. Ryan
That's my thoughts exactly.
John Clay Wolf
All right, well, I'll tell you where we're not agreeing is. Your car's worth 62 and you want 63 and a half. But I will give 62 and I'll write a check and we'll get some good teeth on your daughter and she can take care of you. So if you want to sell it, go to givemetheven.com. okay?
J.D. Ryan
All right. I appreciate it, John. Have a good day.
John Clay Wolf

J.D. Ryan
Option, you could talk.
John Clay Wolf
You could type talk.
Gigi Drummond
And ended that day, it's over. Talking is obsolete. It's antiquated. I feel like a blacksmith up here sometimes, to tell you the truth.
John Clay Wolf
I could text you this whole thing.
J.D. Ryan
We can get the hell out of here right now.
John Clay Wolf
Text it.
J.D. Ryan
Don't tell me.
Bobby Brown
And now we return to the John Clay Wolf show. Call John toll free, 1-800-800- radio.
John Clay Wolf
I don't think I told you this early when we had that big classic collector auction two months ago or three months ago with that collection out of Oklahoma.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
There was one car in there that nobody knew what it was. And I've called the guy back that bought it and I've offered him a hundred thousand profit and he won't take it.
Gigi Drummond
Is it the black and gold?
John Clay Wolf
No, no. Red 55 pilot Corvette.
Gigi Drummond
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
First V8 ever.
Gigi Drummond
Really? How much did he buy it for?
John Clay Wolf
150 grand. Yep. Well, you know, it's fine.
Gigi Drummond
That's why you go to the auction. You never know what you can get.
John Clay Wolf
That's why people go to give me the ventilator, because they might get good deals. We're so stupid. The guy selling it didn't know either. The guy that sold it to us, none of us knew.
Gigi Drummond
But this guy knows now.
John Clay Wolf
Dennis Collins is the one that decoded and figured it out. He told me last week. He's like, dude, I've been not wanting to tell you this because he was mad at himself because he was sitting right there, too, and he didn't take the time to figure it out.
Gigi Drummond
But the guy that bought it, does he know?
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
Gigi Drummond
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Obviously, after we offered him $100,000 profit, he turned it down. Yep. Backtracks. Speaking of old stuff, what are we doing this week, Bob?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, boy. It's Foo Fighters this week.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Big anniversary. Foo Fighters, 2011. They released their seventh studio album, I think one of the best, Wasting Light. It was really, really good. Their first single, rope, became the second song ever to debut at number one on Billboard's rock songs chart.
Gigi Drummond
That's not gonna be one of the clips, though.
J.D. Ryan
I hope not. We'll see. We got these two songs backwards. You identify them correctly and you get prizes. Cut one.
John Clay Wolf
That's short.
Gigi Drummond
Play that again. Okay, I think I got it. Cut two. If you're a fan, you're gonna get these.
John Clay Wolf
This is kind of weird, not having the answers, but that's fine. It's probably good for me.
J.D. Ryan
You. You ain't got no sheep.
John Clay Wolf
No, that's all right.
Gigi Drummond
Play cut to again.
John Clay Wolf
So 8008-0072-3480-0800, 7234. Which spells out 800, 800 radio on your touch tone phone, not your rotary. Guess what those two Foo Fighter songs are. And you can go to jcwshow.com and pick out anything that we have in the swag bucket. Unless. Do we have anything real expensive in there? I don't, like, give away a cooler or something.
J.D. Ryan
I haven't looked lately, but we used to have a couple of pricey deals.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, well, anything that makes sense if you don't pick the most expensive thing. I mean, anything under 30 bucks, we.
J.D. Ryan
Haven'T had any problem with that yet. And we've got. We've got music from Born Lay Records. All right, Give away, too.
John Clay Wolf
Cut one. Cut to. Speaking of expensive, last night took. Nolan had his birthday dinner. Del Frisco's Fancy.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And before we were seated, we're sitting at the bar. We had to wait a little while and ordered. I ordered a gin and tonic, and I ordered my wife a. I Forgot what she drinks. Mojito. Guess how much the bill was for those two drinks.
Gigi Drummond
I'm gonna say 30 bucks.
John Clay Wolf
35 bucks.
DJ Pre K
Dang.
Gigi Drummond
That's cheaper than going to a game and ordering two drinks like that.
John Clay Wolf
What are you supposed to tip on? 35 bucks?
Gigi Drummond
10.
John Clay Wolf
5 bucks. You know, they give you the 10% would be.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, 5.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, yeah, rounded at 5 bucks.
DJ Pre K
5 bucks.
John Clay Wolf
$40 dollars.
DJ Pre K
For two drinks?
John Clay Wolf
For two drinks.
J.D. Ryan
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
People that work, you know, 20 bucks an hour is a decent job. That's two hours of work.
J.D. Ryan
Work for 10.
John Clay Wolf
Two drinks. And we wonder why everybody's broke.
DJ Pre K
Yeah, we are. Del Frisco's, too. If you go to Del Frisco's, they think you're not going to look at the prices. Come on.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I didn't, obviously. I just ordered them. I know.
DJ Pre K
I'm just saying people have money.
John Clay Wolf
The good thing is I had a gift gift card from Mannheim for being the number one seller in the country.
DJ Pre K
Gift card.
John Clay Wolf
And I didn't even think about it.
Gigi Drummond
Wait, hold on. Used a gift card for your kid's birthday?
John Clay Wolf
I did. Of course.
J.D. Ryan
Who wouldn't?
Gigi Drummond
I mean, I love that.
John Clay Wolf
When I got the bill, I'm like, damn. And then it hit me. Boom, I got a gift card. Did I have it used? Honey, do you still have that? And she pulled up. Yeah, like, use it.
Gigi Drummond
That's great.
J.D. Ryan
Put it in there.
John Clay Wolf
That is great. I wonder what percentage of gift cards do not get redeemed. I bet it's the best hustle in the world.
DJ Pre K
There's a big number.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
A third.
Gigi Drummond
And my wife has it for her spa. And then she says there's so many and they just don't use.
John Clay Wolf
But now we have. Actually, speaking of. I think she gave. She gave that to us for Christmas or something two or three years ago. And Jeanette brought it up to the day. We still have this at the Omni Spa. She'll. She'll. But back to you, jd. Do I ever that. Do I ever slow down enough to breathe in and breathe out?
DJ Pre K
Breathe in and breathe out.
John Clay Wolf
Can you imagine me going to a spa in the middle of the day for two hours? No, No, I don't have time for that.
Gigi Drummond
Sunday.
John Clay Wolf
Sunday I'm out here. I don't want to ruin my day off in a spa.
DJ Pre K
You're taking time.
J.D. Ryan
Relax.
John Clay Wolf
You gotta drive over there. You gotta spend $40 for more drinks.
Gigi Drummond
Hold on.
DJ Pre K
Oh, I see.
Gigi Drummond
He wants people to come to him.
DJ Pre K
But do have alcohol call.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, it's not. Is a prostitution Deal.
DJ Pre K
No, no, no, no. So the answer is 20% of gift cards never get redeemed. 20%.
John Clay Wolf
Turley, reach for the dump button on that one.
Gigi Drummond
I was about to dump.
John Clay Wolf
All right, Wendy, what are your guesses on the backtracks? My guesses are the first one's big Me. Okay.
J.D. Ryan
The second one is the best of you. That's great.
John Clay Wolf
Tony, you lost. Damn you, you lost. Love you. Damn you too. Love you back. All right, Wendy, you're number one. You're winning. Prek. Setting her up right now and giving her free stuff. Two drinks, forty bucks.
Gigi Drummond
That you didn't have to pay for, though.
John Clay Wolf
Oh. Or go buy the Bosque canteen. It seems like I give everybody their meal for free. 800-800-7, 2, 3, 4. 800, 800 radio.
DJ Pre K
Sit with the kids while you're there.
John Clay Wolf
I did tell my partner. I'm like, hey, man, I'm gonna. He's like, why do you buy your food when you're here? I said, because a lot of times I said, my comp bill here is a lot higher than yours and it's not fair to our partnership.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
To do that. I said, if I'm there, it's just me and my family. We'll put it on the house. If it's not, I'm gonna. I'm gonna pay for it. I mean, what a crappy partner. You'd be right. If he's running up like a three thousand dollar a month bill and he's. He's using like three hundred, that's all right, man. Nah, I'm not gonna do that. Okay. We'll be right back.

Okay. He's always pretty good. Yeah, it's been a while since we fluffed it.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So what's this harmonica thing? Oh, we.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I broke out my harmonica this weekend. We've been threatening for weeks.
John Clay Wolf
Where is it?
J.D. Ryan
Finally did It. My harmonica? Yeah, it's in my raptor bag.
John Clay Wolf
Where's your raptor bag?
J.D. Ryan
Down there in my room.
John Clay Wolf
You didn't go get it? You had plenty of time. You brought it up. I said go get it.
J.D. Ryan
You want to hear me play harmonica dry. With no singing or guitar or anything?
John Clay Wolf
I mean, who was. When y'all were drunk and you were doing it, who was singing and guitar?
J.D. Ryan
You some kind of masochist?
John Clay Wolf
Were you doing. Were you doing it last night at your show?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, okay. Now I understand. Man, this reminds me. Do you remember that scene at Boogie Nights at the end with the. The drug dealers and it was weird. And the kid.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
The Chinese guy throwing off the firefighters. I was. I went out. I have this friend that is rowdy. He's one of those crazy rich kids, and he. He's been like this for a long time. Oil baron, son.
J.D. Ryan
Oh.
John Clay Wolf
And he likes shooting guns indoors when he's been drinking.
J.D. Ryan
I know the types.
John Clay Wolf
And we. We went out and we went back to their house for whatever this is about four years ago, maybe six. And he's going and doing his thing, and then it's getting late, and Mama rolls out her bag of harmonicas.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And he starts yelling, no, don't do that. No, put those up. And she's drunk and she gets on the harmonica and starts kicking. And she's good.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
And I'm enjoying. I mean, I felt like I was sitting there with John Popper from Blues Traveler. I mean, she was on it. And he's just, like, completely against this moment and just raising all kinds of hell.
J.D. Ryan
Why?
John Clay Wolf
Because he just. I guess she gets the attention. He wants the attention. That's why. And we were all enjoying it. And he was just that. I told you. I told you not to do that. I don't want those damn harmonicas. And it kind of reminded me of that. Remember the scene in Sling Blade?
Gigi Drummond
Oh, you're talking about when he's trying to kick him out of the house?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. I said, get out of my house. That goes for suckers and recharge. It was. It was wild. But then. But then. Yeah. Here. The harmonica. John Popper. I mean, she was going. And so he whips out his pistol.
DJ Pre K
Oh, no.
John Clay Wolf
And he's got one of those things in the house that will catch a bullet. Have you ever seen this?
DJ Pre K
Yes, I am.
John Clay Wolf
And he starts firing his gun. This is 2 in the morning. She's playing harmonica. And he's firing his gun into this pistol trap in the living room. What a weird and my wife looks at me and says, we're leaving.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And I asked her. We've had a couple of opportunities to go out with him again. And she's like, I'm good. If you want to go, you go. But I'm not putting myself in that position again because he's a bad gun handler. When he's been drinking, he whips the gun out and he shows it to you, and he's kind of whipping it. Have you seen this one? Have you seen. Yeah, no, we're good.
Gigi Drummond
Like Yosemite Sam.
John Clay Wolf
I guarantee you there's people right now that are listening to this show that are friends of mine that are going to start texting next to me, his name. They know exactly who I'm talking about.
J.D. Ryan
People die like that, man.
DJ Pre K
A lot.
John Clay Wolf
That's right.
DJ Pre K
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
That's why my wife was like, we're going up.
Gigi Drummond
And he was mad because she broke out the harmonica.
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
DJ Pre K
So let me shoot the gun off.
John Clay Wolf
Time to play Jeopardy.

J.D. Ryan
I've been fine, actually.
John Clay Wolf
How's your health?
J.D. Ryan
Huh? Oh, my health? Well, they took me off the light levothyroxine and the lyothyrene. And since they took out my thyroid, I don't have any. You know what I mean? So. So it's kind of makes you kind of tired, but it's okay. You know what's really Good for that. I had a friend that went through that cocaine, you know, A whole bunch.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, okay.
J.D. Ryan
Don't be shy and don't be. And just. Just do it. Do it all. Yeah, I'll come do it with you.
John Clay Wolf
I'll have to try that.
Gigi Drummond
I can't imagine. G on.
John Clay Wolf
How's drinking if you are on all those pills, does it change your inebriation?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, I don't drink at all. No, I don't. Very rarely I've seen you drink, girl.
John Clay Wolf
Well, you were always talking about going to the sports bar and with your jersey on trying to pick up a man getting a margarita.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. Didn't work. Okay, thanks a lot.
DJ Pre K
Thanks for bringing it up.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, yeah, well, yeah. When's the draft start?
Gigi Drummond
It's going right now.
John Clay Wolf
You, Quentin, yours get picked yet? I feel bad. No, I love the fact that Sanders has not got and picked after he off like that. Love it. I hope that nobody picks him.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, no.
J.D. Ryan
Wouldn't that be weird?
Gigi Drummond
I can't imagine no one picking him.
J.D. Ryan
Betting ons on that, Charlie.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, they'll just. I think the owners might stand up and say we're going to show these boys who is in charge here.
Gigi Drummond
Yeah, but that's collusion. You're supposed to do that.
John Clay Wolf
That's not collusion. That's policy.
J.D. Ryan
Well, if they, if they organize and do it, it's collusion.
John Clay Wolf
But collusion, yeah. No, it's not. I completely disagree. We need to show these fellas that if they get to play in our league that they've got to act right. We run this thing. They don't.
Gigi Drummond
Neither have been.
J.D. Ryan
Why don't you just shoot them if you're gonna be a fascist about it?
John Clay Wolf
Man, you know, I think you, you are shooting them by not picking them.
Gigi Drummond
Somebody will take a chance.
J.D. Ryan
You shoot yourself when you can't be hired. That interview process is very important, especially for quarterbacks.
John Clay Wolf
It's not an interview. Oh, yeah. I mean, you can be hired. They can walk on and earn it the hard way.
Gigi Drummond
Right.
John Clay Wolf
It's not like he's cut out. He just didn't get picked.
Gigi Drummond
Well, 15 picks in the fourth round right now he has not been picked. Neither is Quinn. No quarterback has been picked so far in this fourth round. But Scatter Boo has by the Giants.
John Clay Wolf
Would he be a good quarterback for the Cowboys? No.
Gigi Drummond
As a backup, sure. It'd be. I'd take them. They need a backup. Get a learn under Dak. Yeah, but it. The only way the Cobbles would do that is like the seventh round Maybe the sixth round if he's still around. I can see Jerry doing it that way.
John Clay Wolf
Well, he won't take the deal that's offered him at this point.
Gigi Drummond
Oh, I think he would at that point. Being a cowboy.
