John Clay Wolf
It's Christmas Eve.
Michael Turley
It's the one night of the year.
John Clay Wolf
When we all act a little nicer, we smile a little easier, we share a little more.
Richard Rollins
For a couple of hours out of the whole year, we are the people that we always hoped we would be.
John Clay Wolf
Speaking of marijuana, hit him up now.
Radio Announcer
800, 800 radio.
John Clay Wolf
And it can happen for all of you. I'm fix to kick everybody out of here. I'm just going to do this myself now.
Radio Announcer
John Clay Wolf.
John Clay Wolf
Rob Reiner's dead. Yeah, he's still tweeting about how Ronald Reagan ruined your life. But he's dead, is he? God, the meathead has passed. It's terrible.
Michael Turley
It's very shocking. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
First his kid killed him.
Michael Turley
Yes. His, his live in son who's been with him for, well, 30 years.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Michael Turley
But never kind of kicked out. Actually, the, the stories as they continue to come out just, it's, the whole thing's just sad. Of course, you know, everybody knows Mike, Rob Reiner, rather, from meet him.
John Clay Wolf
Mike Reiner from the Ticket.
Michael Turley
Michael Stivic. He was Michael Stivic, John. Do you remember that? Do you ever watch all.
J.D. Ryan
God, that shows. Great.
John Clay Wolf
Come here, Meathead. It's the meathead. And then his hot little daughter in the hot pants. Go ahead.
Bob O.
Oh, don't give me that. How was your day there? Ready?
Michael Turley
He directed a bunch of great movies, as we all know. Many Seinfeld insiders. By the way, Seinfeld insiders say Rob Reiner was the guy that saved the show from getting canceled. Micah, number one.
John Clay Wolf
There are some defining moments not immortalized here. Case in point, Seinfeld. One of his production company's hits would have been canceled early on if Reiner had not personally argued its case to NBC brass.
Richard Rollins
We just had to fight like crazy to keep it on the air, which we did.
John Clay Wolf
Did you know that was going to be a hit? Did you know that was going to be. You never.
Richard Rollins
You never know anything's going to be a hit. We knew it was good, but we.
Michael Turley
Didn'T know it was going to be a hit.
John Clay Wolf
Was he fighting for Jerry's show, the Seinfeld show? He said one of his productions. Yeah.
Bob O.
It's a long story, but, you know, he started out that way. He did a few movies. One of those was John Cusacks. The sure Thing thing, right. Was great early movie. A lot of those through mgm. When he signed and got the rights to Stand By Me, the Stephen King Story, they couldn't get distribution, so he started his own company called Castle Rock Entertainment. And Castle Rock produced Seinfeld.
Michael Turley
Yep.
Bob O.
And they didn't do well, ratings wise. First off, because it is a. It is a quirky show and did take a little getting used to. And they. They fought for it to keep it on the air. First three seasons it finally landed.
Michael Turley
It did. Couple son Nick Reiner has been arrested. Of course, as we know now, despite his struggles with addiction and various mental health issues, his parents had allowed him to continue to live at the family guest house for decades as an adult. Here's an interview, actually. Interesting. From 2018. This is probably when they should have kicked him out. Back in 2018. He got. Says he got loaded and just trashed the guest house. Your parents trash. That would have been the last day.
Richard Rollins
Number two, I got totally spun out on uppers. I think it was coke and something else. And I was up for days on end. And I started punching out different things in my guest house. I think I started with the tv and then I went over to the lamp and then progressive.
Martha Stewart
I just.
Richard Rollins
Everything in the guest house got wrecked.
John Clay Wolf
Did you punch the tv?
Richard Rollins
Yeah, I literally punched the tv.
Bob O.
Describing it joyfully.
John Clay Wolf
He just having a great time.
Bob O.
That young man has never had his ass whipped.
Michael Turley
He's never had any kind of ramifications for his behavior. And, you know, anyway.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, I want to grab this real quick.
Michael Turley
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
There's a weird car. Tony in Florida. Hey, bud.
Richard Rollins
What's happening this morning? Good morning.
John Clay Wolf
You call in time to time. Have you always had this turbo?
Richard Rollins
I've had. This is my third 911. I've had this turbo for about 16 months.
John Clay Wolf
And how. How many before that? It's a 21. Is that right? He. He wrote this down wrong. It's 21.
Richard Rollins
No, no, no. It's a. It's a 2007 911.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. Because he wrote down 21. That makes sense. Because I thought it was a 21 that you wanted 100 grand for. I'm like, we're good. Everybody's good. JD, sorry about Mike Reiner's.
J.D. Ryan
Death.
John Clay Wolf
But I got to take this call real quick.
Bob O.
The car is still alive. Even though it's an 07.
Michael Turley
It's not dead.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, 07, that's not the most desirable body style. You said it's a SEMA car that had a hundred thousand dollar spent on it. Yeah.
Richard Rollins
It was fitted from GMG to showcase their, you know, all their. Excuse me, Their accessories.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. I need pictures of it. What did you pay for it? Just curious. And where did you buy it?
Richard Rollins
I, I, I paid 112. I bought it out of a dealer from Midwest. I put another 10 into it to get, get her where she's at today, you know, sticky buttons, new coilovers. There was a small tear from a probably a high heel in the headliner. I had that redone.
John Clay Wolf
I hear everything you're saying, but I had my, my co hosts are looking at me. Sticky buttons, high heels are like. Hang on. Okay, so guys, sticky buttons are lot. Hang on. Texas cars. So like Ferraris, Aston Martins. The glue on the back of the button seeps through in the heat and it makes the buttons sticky. So you have to replace them.
Bob O.
Or the Kool Aid of your child. Get Kool Aid in the car.
John Clay Wolf
Yep. Or, or some chicken.
Bob O.
Or they'd be eating the moon pie.
John Clay Wolf
Eating a moon pie.
Bob O.
Backseat. They could be in the, in the backseat. Error. You got the knob to work with the arrow. The sticky knobs. Those knob get sticky.
John Clay Wolf
Hey Tony, do me a favor. On this one, take pictures.
Richard Rollins
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
On the info box write out some description if you have links to the car when it was shown or anything else. Or anything you show me. There's this. This car's got a lot of variable in it and I need to look at it.
Richard Rollins
I, I'd like to send you all the documentation I have. Some are from the. The president of GMG Racing before they got so huge. And I have a list of the mods and pretty much everything. I found a couple of highlights on the Internet through like different websites mentioning the car, but I can't.
John Clay Wolf
What, what dealership did you buy from in the Midwest that was.
Richard Rollins
I think they were called Midwest Midwest.
John Clay Wolf
I do business with a lot of those guys. Okay, send me the stuff. Tony, thanks for. Thanks for calling and I am interested.
Richard Rollins
All right. You guys have a great holidays. I'll get that right to you.
John Clay Wolf
Give me the vin.com. okay. Back to death and disparity this holiday season.
Michael Turley
It was a very sad. Of course the stories are starting to come out. They're saying that Conan. It was at A Conan o' Brien Christmas party where his son kind of lost his mind in front of everybody. He was walking up to people and saying, hey, what is your name? Are you famous? And that's obviously in a room full of famous people. That's kind of awkward.
Bob O.
And guess who he ran into? Are you just kind of inside this? This came out just a couple days ago. Bill Hader. Bill Hader, yeah, You know Bill Hader. I mean, he's. He was. Well, he played the. The hitman on the HBO show with Henry Winkler called Barry. Yeah, this. This guy's brilliant. Well, so you walk up to him and say, are you famous?
Michael Turley
He's famous.
Bob O.
I don't know. So are you crazy?
Michael Turley
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
So what spun him out?
Michael Turley
So they said they'd got into a big fight. I'm sure. I don't know, obviously, but they said.
John Clay Wolf
It was about politics.
Michael Turley
I'm sure his parents said, hey, you're embarrassing us. Either stop this or leave the party. That a fight ensued. And they say, now Conan O' Brien told people not to call 91 1. I don't know how you do that, but was it.
J.D. Ryan
Somebody was saying it was about the inheritance, he was being written out or something like that.
Michael Turley
I mean, that's no idea.
John Clay Wolf
That's drastic.
Michael Turley
But, yeah, it sounds like a rumor now. When they got home, they could have said, you know what? That's. That's the last straw. You're moving out. And that could have been the genesis, but we don't know. None of us know.
Bob O.
There are reports that they had switched his medication over the course of the last four to five weeks.
Michael Turley
Oh, that'll do it.
Bob O.
And he wasn't reacting well to that. And they, you know, so he's living in the guest house. He's 32.
Michael Turley
32 now back in 2018, he trashed the guest house then. So he wasn't behaving.
John Clay Wolf
I think he's one of the commenters on our YouTube channel.
Michael Turley
Is he?
Bob O.
Maybe. He may be.
John Clay Wolf
You suck. You suck. Later in the show today, we're going to do.
Michael Turley
You're not reading those, are you?
John Clay Wolf
What's it called?
Bob O.
Feed the Trolls.
John Clay Wolf
Feed the Trolls.
Michael Turley
Feed the Trolls, Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
We've got a new segment called.
Michael Turley
What is that going to be?
John Clay Wolf
I have a couple hours.
Bob O.
Because we.
Richard Rollins
What?
Michael Turley
What is it going to.
Bob O.
We, like, you just lost the listeners so much that Feed the Trolls is just like, you know, people. It's a pack mentality. People can get on.
Michael Turley
Oh, God.
Bob O.
And start busting you. In fact, you can look at our live YouTube feed right now.
Michael Turley
Yes.
Bob O.
And the Wolf packers are on there, I'm sure right now. Texting away.
John Clay Wolf
I think Rollins is calling it a day. Might write down some feed the troll guy. He's got the best from Gas Monkey. Yeah, they just. Whenever I feel bad about my comments, I just read his.
Michael Turley
Here is how it is.
John Clay Wolf
8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. My name is John Claywolf. JD Bob O. Pre K Turley, and it is live this holiday weekend.
J.D. Ryan
It's not pre K, if you noticed in there. That does not look like pre K.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, it's Glen Rose. Yes, Glen Rose. Can you mic him up?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Did you get. Did you. I need you to go by the Rattlesnake, which is no longer the Rattlesnake. It's Walnut Springs Roadhouse. Let's just call it the Roadhouse. The road has. I got to get this out of my head and talk to Reggie. He's. Do you know Reggie?
Richard Rollins
I do not.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. He's worked for us for about 10 years and he was an executive chef and ran a bunch of restaurants in Austin forever. And his family owns Angelo's Barbecue in Fort Worth. Anyway, the guy's got a lot of restaurant experience and he's worked for us for 10 years and he just moved to Walnut and he's going to be the general manager of the Rattlesnake.
Bob O.
Oh, is that Roadhouse?
John Clay Wolf
The Roadhouse, yeah. Anyway, you are a bartender, correct? I am. He needs extra bartenders.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Ted Nugent is playing again. Crazy ass Ted called me night before last one Johnny at me. Talk about Reiner. Talk about politics. I mean, Ted will talk politics too.
Michael Turley
You think?
John Clay Wolf
He said, I had so much fun last weekend with that groove and soul, Johnny. I mean, you don't understand that. That Motown, Detroit and the people in the love and the God loving in the hunters in the. You know how Ted talks. I can't do it that well. Yeah, you know, it's just coming through my veins. I had an out of body experience, Johnny. You don't understand what happened last Saturday. He said, I don't know when the last time that happened. I think it was in 1973 in the Hollywood bowl with Queen. He said, but it happened on your stage at the Roadhouse. And I think we need to do it again. I'm like, what do you mean? He said, what are you doing New Year's Eve? I said, we were planning on being closed. He said, well, now we're not, Johnny. The Ted Nugent Experience is coming again to Walled Springs Roadhouse on New Year's Eve. Is that okay? But the boys would like to do it. I said, well, let's do it. Then. He said, hang on, let me call the boys and see if they'd like to do it.
Michael Turley
Can you handle the New Year's Eve Nuge?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, we put the tickets up yesterday and quietly. And they just boom, boom, boom, boom. They're selling pretty quick. So if you want to get tickets to the Ted Nugent Experience on New Year's Eve in Walnut Springs, Texas, I would go to. Where are the tickets? It's it Outhouse. Let me see if I've got the website changed.
Bob O.
Tickets.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, yeah, but that's too complicated. Walnut Springs Roadhouse. Do I have that, or is it.
J.D. Ryan
On the Walnut Springs rally site?
John Clay Wolf
I don't know, man. This all happened so fast. Ted just put it on me. I didn't have time to.
Bob O.
The flyer I saw said out of house tickets.
J.D. Ryan
The there. What is it labeled as? The Whip Flash Bash.
John Clay Wolf
The Whip Flash Bash. That's great. So let me see if it's at Walnut Springs rally.
Bob O.
You've picked up his pattern, like, extremely well.
John Clay Wolf
Dude, I've heard his pattern.
Bob O.
Must be talking to this guy a lot.
John Clay Wolf
A lot. He's my new best friend.
Bob O.
Hey, John, tell you what.
Michael Turley
One of the.
Bob O.
One of the things I have to do. I can't program my sphincter ride. I don't go hunting. Yeah, guitar. Get that vibe. Get that move that vibe.
John Clay Wolf
It's at Walnut Springs rally dot com. Yeah, he. No joke. I'm like, hey, can you. We were doing some video back. I was like, I'm gonna send you this video of me saying something, and then I want you to video yourself back so we can splice it together and do this announcement. Well, I'm in a tree right now.
Richard Rollins
Of course you are.
John Clay Wolf
You know, the sun is just setting, Johnny, and God is greeted this earth, and I'm sitting there harvesting a dough, and I can't do it right now.
Michael Turley
You got it?
John Clay Wolf
I said, well, I understand, and I don't want to disrupt a hunt. However, I think the fact that you're in a tree doing this video would be the best video ever. If you. Do you happen to have a rope that you're going to swing out of Tarzan, because this guy's 77 years old. He's got guns bigger than all of us. Yeah, it's weird. It's. I'm like, what are you on? I'm on peace, love and God and no fear and guns. And I Meet man. I had venison, venison, venison.
Michael Turley
When I killed.
John Clay Wolf
Kill it.
Martha Stewart
I need it.
John Clay Wolf
Who was there last Saturday? Anybody? Any in this room?
Michael Turley
I didn't make it.
John Clay Wolf
JD I'm telling you what he's explaining was kind of true, not kind of.
Michael Turley
Great shape he's in.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. The energy and the out of body experience in the, in the, I mean like it was kind of weird. Like Ted Nugget kind of levitated off the stage and, and something happened. He might have some weird superpower that we may. I'm a little more sold on him being touched by something, something else more now than I was. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. My name is yes, Walnut Springs Roadhouse. Go now if you want tickets for New Year's Eve. 800800 radio. Coming up next is the car segment where we slap bid the cars real quick.

Radio Announcer
Now back to the Johnson John Clay Wolf show presented by givemethevin.com hit him up right now. 1, 800, 800 radio. 1, 800, 800 radio. This is the John Clay Wolf show.
John Clay Wolf
And this is the Lightning Round. Sam in Houston. What's going on, man? Not much. Tell me about your truck. He didn't give me a trim model on here. Is it a Laramie or what?
Richard Rollins
It's a Laramie 4x4.
John Clay Wolf
Mega or crew?
Bob O.
Crew.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, Not a mega. And what, what's wrong with it? Is it broken?
Richard Rollins
No, it's not broken. It's. I deleted it. So it doesn't have the EGR or CAT or any of that emissions.
John Clay Wolf
How many miles run it?
Richard Rollins
26,000.
John Clay Wolf
Phone screener. Hayden, you got to get the miles on there too. Put 26k. JD if you could give him a quick lesson when we're during the break on phone screen and I appreciate it. It's deleted. What? What color is it? Silver. Okay. It's got good miles on it. So the warranty's canceled?
Richard Rollins
Yeah, I would assume so. I mean I haven't taken it to the dealership or anything, but I would assume so.
John Clay Wolf
Are you mad that you deleted it? Do you wish you had enough? I mean, I understand why you did, but it does change the value.
Richard Rollins
No no, it's got more power. It sounds like an actual Cummins now. And it's gotten the fuel efficiency, got a lot better, but it's just. No dealership wants to touch it now.
John Clay Wolf
Right. Hmm. I think it's a deleted one. I think it's 45 grand.
Richard Rollins
45,000 because it's deleted, or is it just what they're worth?
John Clay Wolf
No, it'd be 50 without it. It's a $5,000 cut.
Richard Rollins
Just for deleting it. Wow. This truck really dropped his value.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, it. These new. These next two new Dodges dropped. Actually, we did. We were analyzing this yesterday afternoon in all our sales in reports. The. The MMR on a. On a 20, 25 is like 59 grand. We sold our 68 grand. We. We sold one for 60 on last Wednesday. There were three examples of these new Dodge diesels bringing five to $8,000 back of MMR just last week. Yeah, new car dealers have a bunch of cars again, is the bottom line. Thank you, Curtis.
Richard Rollins
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
So you have 45 cars you want to sell. Classic cars and very classic motorcycles, Novas, GTOs, etc. Okay, so how long have you had these cars?
Richard Rollins
Oh, I've been collecting for 25 or 28 years. 30 years.
John Clay Wolf
And why do you want to sell them all now?
Richard Rollins
Well, I'm not gonna sell all of them. I'm just gonna pick and choose a few, and I'll sell a few each year.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. I kind of want to do the picking and the choosing, though, because you're gonna show me some Falcon and some package scraps that got picked up. Are any of the good ones some of the pick and choose ones?
Richard Rollins
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I'm not. Not Ford. So all of my. Most of my GMs I got, I'm thinking about. I have a 66 Nova Super Sports, all original numbers, matching car, unrestored. Nice car. I mean, it's. It's not a show car. Body's great. Interior is good.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, does it need to be.
Richard Rollins
Completely restored to me, a show car? Absolutely. But can you drive it like it is? Absolutely. 283 power glide car. Original Super Sport regional original motor transmission. I'm gonna sell. I think about selling now. I've had that car for 23 years, and it's never been out of my shop.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. I'm gonna have my. My guy call you on the. The classic collector side of things. My right hand man. And y' all start working on the lit. Y' all start working on the list, and then I'll pair Up with him on Monday and we'll start going over it.
Bob O.
Here.
John Clay Wolf
Here's what I do on these, on these collections. We get the shape done right of the deal and have an agreement in principle and then I'll fly out there and we'll do the buy.
Richard Rollins
Yeah, that's fine.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Richard Rollins
And yeah, the motorcycle, I don't know if you're interested in motorcycles. I'd already talked to Richard about something. He, he owns a business close to mine, so I'd already talked to Richard about some bikes and stuff.
John Clay Wolf
But Richard knows the bikes.
Richard Rollins
He wasn't interested in the kind of bikes I have.
John Clay Wolf
He was not interested.
Richard Rollins
Okay, but my bike, my. Yeah, my bikes are high end. Like $175,000 bikes.
John Clay Wolf
I don't play in that world. You know, you just got to pick your lane and stay with what you know. I could buy cheap bikes, but, but hundred thousand dollar bikes. I don't know what to do with them. They're, they're not, they're not liquid. They're not liquid enough for me. I mean, you might as well try and be selling Phil Collins Confederate soldiers models from. I just don't know. Hey, I'm at the light. I got to keep booging. Go to. I've got your number. I just took a picture of your number. I'm gonna send it to the guy right now. Thank you.

Radio Announcer
This is the John Clay Wolf show.
John Clay Wolf
You know, I'll tell you, there's nobody that could get me online angry like Rob Reiner.
Bob O.
Oh, really?
John Clay Wolf
And this is not a. I'm not beating down on his death. Please don't take this wrong. I mean, it's terrible. Nobody but I, he, he would make posts and reply things. I know I never engage but like a few of his, I had, I felt like I had.
Bob O.
Did you really?
John Clay Wolf
Did you engage? Yeah. Oh, he's a, he's, he was quite the.
Richard Rollins
Yeah.
Michael Turley
When you get online and start talking about you wish people would die, especially the president or anybody, it's just. It's. It's just vitriol. It's hate.
John Clay Wolf
It was weird. When I first saw about his death, I completely assumed it was some wild ass, some political guy that killed.
Michael Turley
That was my first thought, too.
John Clay Wolf
Not what happened.
Michael Turley
No, not. Not his son.
John Clay Wolf
You said he was a what? When we did this off air, you had a lot better comments.
Michael Turley
No, I didn't. That's exactly what I said. Then Bob O. Started. Bob's holding back.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, okay.
Michael Turley
And what I said was, yes, he's. He preaches hate, which you shouldn't do.
John Clay Wolf
That's what you said.
Bob O.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Rob Reiner preached hate?
Michael Turley
Oh, God, yes. Oh, God, yes.
John Clay Wolf
Huh?
Michael Turley
Oh, my Lord.
Bob O.
Maybe I'm out of the loop. I've only really seen him on tv. I don't. I haven't followed him online.
Michael Turley
He was angry and bitter and yes, he. He.
Bob O.
Well, we shouldn't. We certainly shouldn't Very much.
John Clay Wolf
The meathead in real life, including Rob Reiner.
Bob O.
We certainly shouldn't preach hate. But the dumbest thing we can do is to get angry at each other over any of this is.
Michael Turley
I totally.
Bob O.
It's just politics.
Michael Turley
It's just politics.
J.D. Ryan
The dumbest thing is to listen to somebody that's a movie actor or anything.
John Clay Wolf
Like that at all.
J.D. Ryan
Who cares what they think?
John Clay Wolf
It's because I don't care.
Michael Turley
Because they have a platform and they're surrounded by people that say they're brilliant. So they keep saying it over and over and over. De Niro.
John Clay Wolf
I think what caught my eye, I mean, just thinking about all in the Family and his back and forth with Archie Bunker.
Michael Turley
Oh, he was totally the meeting.
John Clay Wolf
But it was very. The same thing in real life.
Michael Turley
Yes, yes.
John Clay Wolf
Very much copy. I guess that's why I felt like I needed to reply, like somebody needed to be Archie. Shut up, meathead. You know, my daughter marries a port. What was he, a German? Polish.
Michael Turley
Polish, yeah.
J.D. Ryan
He would say. Don't say what he said on there, Right?
Michael Turley
No, let's don't even. In the 60s, that was very. So you're up for you.
John Clay Wolf
From Poland.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. There was things I learned, languages that I. You can't. You can't say it.
Michael Turley
You can't say it anymore.
J.D. Ryan
No.
Michael Turley
The things they said on all in the Family, you could probably not say.
Bob O.
That's a big lesson in class structure.
Michael Turley
Oh, it really was.
Bob O.
And I was. I was just over toddler age, watching that every week.
Michael Turley
Brilliant, you know, Brilliant for its time.
Bob O.
The introduction of George Jefferson.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
Bob O.
On that show. Sammy Davis.
Michael Turley
Sammy Davis Jr. We kissed him.
Bob O.
Archie's sister in law, Maude, Right. Edith's sister is getting married and he meets the husband and they leave and he says, oh, good night. No, she's marrying a Jew.
John Clay Wolf
Speaking of Jewish black people, did you know that Lenny Kravitz's mother is on George Jefferson's show? What was George Jefferson's show called?
Bob O.
The Jefferson.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, Jeff. I mean, I know you know. You know that, right?
Bob O.
I did not know that.
John Clay Wolf
You did not know that Lenny Kravitz's mother was the black guy? Where married to the white guy.
Bob O.
Well, Lenny Kravitz doesn't look Jewish.
John Clay Wolf
I. I mean, I don't know what Jewish looks like.

Bob O.
Yeah, my dad had things to say about. About three's company back in the day.
John Clay Wolf
There's a reason you think our kids are weaker. Because we don't talk that trash in front of them.
Bob O.
He was allowed to live in an apartment with two girls is because he pretended to be gay.

Ed's a good guy.
John Clay Wolf
We used to prank Call him. When I first got on the radio, we would call and stack his calls so that when he was switching and hanging up on us, then we would catch the next one. It was so fun. It would drive him crazy.

Okay.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no. They. He had a clear channel call and tell me to quit bombing on Ed show. Did he really? Yeah.

J.D. Ryan
And I knew.
John Clay Wolf
So I was hammering his ass where there were three of us. We're just Hamm ass. And we had our little scripts lined up, and we'd lead him up and then drop a bomb on him. And then, you know, they dump it or try to dump. And he's on a remote at the Autorama. I'm sitting here at the Autorama with my good friend J.D. ryan, Chevrolet. J.D. tell me how great the Chevrolets are this year.
Michael Turley
They're amazing, though.
John Clay Wolf
And I was like, you know. And Ed, my Chevrolet broke down. Can you get the Chevrolet dealer to tell me why? Because the service advisor turned us down. And they told us to go f off. And he'd hang up. And then it'd be the next day, hey, Ed, I'm still here. I'm still wondering why my Chevrolet's broken down. And the service advisor told. And then he'd go. The next one to be. Ed, quit hanging up on me. This guy really screwed me on my Chevrolet.
Michael Turley
So frustrating.
John Clay Wolf
You know, J.D. chevrolet is. Does not do things like that. I. I think somebody's just. With those kids. Those kids. I was about 35 years old, 32 years old.

Michael Turley
All right, well, this guy was not in a bunny costume, but he was 86 years old on his roof. Hey, guys, maybe you listen to your wife after you're, say, 70. His wife told him not to get on the roof. James Marta's had to be rescued by the Tampa first responders. He goes up on his roof to blow off the leaves like we all do this time of year. He said his shoes weren't gripping too well, and before he knew it, he was hanging off the side of the roof. Here's James on how lucky he is to have his wife, Sharon, who told him not to go up there at seven.
John Clay Wolf
I got you, sir. I'm glad somebody's got me.
Michael Turley

Reach up, reach up, reach up with that.
Michael Turley
She's been on me for years not.
John Clay Wolf
To do it, but when you build.
Michael Turley
A home and you go up there and you blow it twice a year, you get confidence.
John Clay Wolf
Let me get your wrist. Come here. Come here.
Richard Rollins
I didn't mean to cause all this. No, no.
John Clay Wolf
It's not your fault at all. That's what we're here for. Okay?
Caller/Guest
Maybe it's time to take Sharon's advice and get someone else up there next year.
Michael Turley

Michael Turley

Michael Turley
Haynes City police responding to a report of a crash Chevy, Chevy Silverado. They found a lot more than just a confused driver. The vehicle search turned up what they thought might be a potential nuclear threat.
John Clay Wolf
Wow.
Michael Turley
Yeah. Here's part of the news story to tell you why it was a nuclear threat. Number eight.
Caller/Guest
This all happened in a parking lot of a Publix in Haines City Friday night. According to police, multiple firearms could be seen from the outside of the truck. Benjamin Johnson told officers there was a dirty bomb inside the truck. A yellow plastic container was taken and the ATF was called. The container tested positive for radioactivity, but it was a device used to test soil. Marijuana gummies were also found. Benjamin Johnson is charged with drug possession, hoax weapon and false report of a bomb or explosive.
Michael Turley
They also found thermal rifle scopes, various knives, battering ram, night vision goggles, and of course, THC gummies. Fun stuff in Florida.
John Clay Wolf
Wow.
Michael Turley

Bob O.
What an arsenal. In the. Right there in the car.
Michael Turley
Right there in the car. Right.
John Clay Wolf
Boy, I don't know about y', all, but I don't. I wouldn't want to walk around stoned or drunk all the time. No, I mean, everybody's stoned all the time now. Charlie, are you stoned right now? No. Where's Gigi?
Michael Turley
God, Stone.
Bob O.
Is it Saturday?
J.D. Ryan
It is all the time.
John Clay Wolf
Would not be fun, but a lot of people that. They're just taking stoner pills like. Like coffee.
Bob O.
Here's the deal. Is it me or is it just the world? But, like, I know fewer and fewer people who are stoned all the time the older I get.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I know that's just the world in your age group, in your demo. So all of. All of the partiers are falling off. Well, let's look. Okay, you're still drinking, but you keep saying you quit.
Bob O.
I did.
John Clay Wolf
You were drinking last night.
Bob O.
I quit about 9:00' clock last night.
Michael Turley
You do that every week.
John Clay Wolf
J.D.
Michael Turley
Quit 17 years ago.
John Clay Wolf
Right. Charlie's talking about throttling back Turley.
J.D. Ryan
No, I. I mean, you know, I don't talk about do it right.
John Clay Wolf
I can just tell by the behaviors.
Bob O.
Turley's not a club joiner. Man, a lot of good quitters never win it.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Joe Rogan quit drinking. I was reading. That's what got me thinking about it. And I started looking about it.
Bob O.
Joe Rogan.
John Clay Wolf
It steals your. It steals your energy, it steals your. When we get to our age that we're just not good at it anymore, it sucks.
J.D. Ryan
Like, the next day, after the Christmas party, I was hurting, right? I mean, it's like, man, yeah, maybe do this maybe once a month it'll be okay to do something like that. But I. Yeah, no, we had a.
John Clay Wolf
Good auction on Wednesday, and I got excited and I went over to Gas Monkey, and I. Between there and then, I went to the next place, and then the next place and I got home, I called a driver. I was drunk.
Bob O.
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
My wife didn't know. She knows now.
Michael Turley
I just see the people come in Monday morning. They look like crap, they feel like crap, and they paid money to do it. I always ask them, what's the sexy part again?
Bob O.
Yeah, I know who you're talking about.
Michael Turley
Yeah, well, the office.
Bob O.
Not anybody specific for a Storied practitioner like myself. I found Turley. You're very close to.
Richard Rollins
Right.
Bob O.
I think something like probably three times a year I might get like that off kilter. And it's almost always. Always at home.
John Clay Wolf
And Christmas vacation. Ish. That vibe is among us right now.
Michael Turley
Charlie wasn't drunk at the Christmas party.
John Clay Wolf
I'm not. I'm just saying this time of year. My point is this time of year celebration is. Is the. Okay, we're off the clock a little bit, and it sure would be. Let's party. It's so easy calling the friends. Hey, you want to meet here? You want to meet there? Seeing this guy, that guy. Just. Just a lot of drinking this time of year.
Michael Turley
It is.
John Clay Wolf
And it sure is fun. It is fun.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
Michael Turley
As long as you're still having fun, man. Do it.
J.D. Ryan
It's just that the next day. That's good.
Michael Turley
Having fun. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
As a kid, when you're young, it was like, all right. Next day you bounce right back. Oh, my God. Yeah. My. My kid was telling me about, you know, all this stuff that he did, and he's drinking and yada, yada, yada. I was like, well, how'd you feel the next day? I'm fine.
John Clay Wolf
Call in with your pre drinking prescription like grandma's honey and. And eat a bunch of burgers or, you know, straight pit. Squeeze a pig and eat its urine. Whatever you do to keep from being hungover the next day. Wait, I something up.
Michael Turley
That's a good one.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, but you know, like the lard and the pig urine gets into your system and it metabolizes with your liver and it keeps you from getting hungover.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Everybody's got these theories, and I'd like to hear yours of what you do.
J.D. Ryan
I. I charcoal.
John Clay Wolf
I eat charcoal per catch. And then light it up with lighter fluid.
J.D. Ryan
I found the electrolytes, those packets that does help. The next that you just load up. Or if you do it during and your hangover is not as bad, but I forgot. And of course then in your headache.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I take a couple of Tylenol. I know that that's terrible and it's hard on your liver, but if you take them before bed, it does help. But now I notice I need more and more. If you notice. What we used to have a bottle of Advil in the bathroom up here. That's empty. Was one of those big ones.
Michael Turley
Big ones.
John Clay Wolf
That was me.
J.D. Ryan
It's gone.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. I'd show up here. We've been here two and a half years in the studio. And you Take a couple Advil in the morning and then take, you know, three hours. Keep your blood a little thinner and it makes you feel better.
Bob O.
Advil's the worst.
John Clay Wolf
Why?
Bob O.
On your liver. It just is.
John Clay Wolf
Well, everybody's got these doctor theories, you know, oh, my God, that's going to kill you. And oh my God, oh my God. And then it's not as bad as.
Bob O.
Jack Daniels, but Advil's pretty bad for you.
John Clay Wolf
Then you'll have a doctor call and say, that's completely wrong. Then another doctor will call and say, oh, he's completely right and you're wrong. It's like, oh, God, now it sounds like we're Rob Reiner arguing about politics and we're just trying to get drunk. See you back in a minute. If you're offended by the content of this last segment, please call in and report me now. It's the most wonderful time. Don't call me sir or I'll kick your ass. With the kids jingle belling and everyone telling you be of good cheer. It's the most wonderful time of the year. Hey, Bobbo, it's my show. It's the half happiest season of all. I'll tell you when you need to dump me. With those holiday greetings and gay happy meetings. When friends come to call. Hey, I'm not gay. It's the happiest season of all. Well, I was a bit perverted at a young age. There'll be parties for hosting marshmallows for toasting and caroling out in the snow. You're stupid. There will be scary ghost stories and tales of the glories of Christmases long, long ago. Those ball look mighty tasty. It's the most wonderful time. I just don't know how that mouse got in my buttocks. There'll be much mistletoeing and hearts will be glowing when loved ones are near. I have the ability to piss people off. It's the most wonderful time. I hate people. Yes, the most wonderful. What the hell is wrong with you? Oh, the most wonderful. Thanks for making me look and feel like an absolute jerk.
Michael Turley
They hated me first.

I don't need to elaborate on that. I was just calling you this morning. I hadn't talked to you in a while. I thought I'd check in.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Richard Rollins
What's going on?
John Clay Wolf
Well, we're just doing our thing. But you said you were listening to. He called me off the air during course break, and he's talking about the drinking thing. And I said, hang up and call in on the air.
Richard Rollins
Yeah, yeah. How about that?
John Clay Wolf
And then like everybody else, whenever. John, like everybody else, whatever they call like you, you're talking to them on the phone and it sounds good, then you tell them to call it on the air, they sell up. So, Jason, what was it you wanted to talk about?
Richard Rollins
I don't know. You tell me.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no. You wanted to talk about you stopped drinking. Oh.
Richard Rollins
Why I stopped drinking? Well, I had kind of fell deep in the bottle and decided it was time to quit.
John Clay Wolf
I remember.
Richard Rollins
Go ahead.
John Clay Wolf
I remember a night you came out to the place in Burleson about 15 years ago, and you had a handle of vodka with you. A handle? Yeah.
Richard Rollins
It wasn't unusual.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, but that was a while back. And then your wife called you and said, where's the vodka? Well, I've got it. And she's like, well, that's B.S. i mean, now I've got to go get my own. Like, vodka's a. Vodka's heavy. So. So you got into the ranch waters. Is that what you were drinking?
Richard Rollins
No, no, still, the vodka. It's always been the vodka. It's just a different brand. You know, vodka.
John Clay Wolf
Well, the. The. The. I saw you one night about six weeks ago, and then the next day they said you were. You were gone. You checked yourself into whiskey camp. You were just. So. So I saw you.
Richard Rollins
I went to the.
John Clay Wolf
At your celebration right before auction. Yeah.
Richard Rollins
Remember that?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Richard Rollins
Meekum auction yeah. Yep. It started off with a bloody Mary. Sue was out of town. Oops, now everybody knows. And you know, it didn't end well that night. And I went to the airport the next day and told her, I think it's time. So I went for a three day camp. And it was good camp. It worked out.
John Clay Wolf
And it worked.
Richard Rollins
I had one. Oh my gosh. Haven't had one stitch of a desire.
John Clay Wolf
Really?
Richard Rollins
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Three days.
Richard Rollins
It's amazing how three and a half days. And then I went to event in another state, let's just put it that way. Because I don't want to all the secrets away with and you know, got up to the dance floor and thinking, boy, it sure would be nice to have a little liquid courage about now. Right. And then just watched everybody else around me proceed to get get faced. And that was the whole objective.
John Clay Wolf
Remember we're on FCC radio on the air. No, I already. I already dumped it. I've dumped you twice. I've got to hang up on you if you do it again. I don't have enough dump. Okay, so you can't do that.
Richard Rollins
Sorry.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, he's nicest guy ever. He's not doing it intentionally. I know him too well. So you went to a wedding, everybody was wasted and turned you off, and you. You went for three days and you're in. Are you doing the AA thing where you go to the meetings?
Richard Rollins
Nope.
John Clay Wolf
Probably need to figure it out.
Richard Rollins
I'm not an alcoholic yet. I was a heavy drinker and I got to the point.
John Clay Wolf
Jason, you've been drinking hard since we were in sophomore year of high school and it is seven years. It's never. You've always shown up with a handle. When I was at SMU and you brought your muscle car over to show me your. Your Oldsmobile442, you had a handle. I mean, you. You brought a roadie kit with you for 40 years and you're 50 years old. This started when you were 10. So you're gonna tell me that a three day hitter at an offshore is gonna fix you? There's no way.
Richard Rollins
Yep, 100%.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
Michael Turley
Three days is detox. It's not really work. It's not like a 30 day program where you learn. There's a lot of people that just do what he did. Set it down, walked away. Your daughter did.
John Clay Wolf
That's true.
Michael Turley
You just set it down and say that's enough. There's a lot of people that do that.
John Clay Wolf
She quit when she quit. She. She quit when she got old enough to drink. She'd had enough between her teenage years.
Michael Turley
By the time she got legal to drink.
Richard Rollins
Somebody else's daughter or your daughter?
John Clay Wolf
My daughter. Yeah. She just quit drinking. Yeah, she's quit drinking.
Michael Turley
A lot of people can do that.
Bob O.
A lot of folks can.
Richard Rollins
That's awesome. Yeah, well, I think when you're ready, you're ready.
Bob O.
All right.
John Clay Wolf
You know.
Richard Rollins
All right, so think happy thoughts for me, pods.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you, sir.
Richard Rollins
You know, let's do it.
John Clay Wolf
All right, well, so if you show. Thank you, bud.
Michael Turley
That's the thing. It's a lot of people. What he said is, right, when you're ready, you're ready. Rehab won't make you not ever drink again. It just won't. When you're ready, you're ready. Rehab enforces that. AA's great meeting because it's support, but some people, like I said, just put it down and say, that's enough of that. Let me do something else.
Bob O.
And the things you can make yourself believe about it. I knew a gal. This would be a short story. I swear to God. I knew a gal not too long ago, a couple years ago, brought over this, this vodka and it's called Rain Vodka. It's a giant tear shaped bottle.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
Bob O.
She said, this is so clean. This is made in Switzerland. It's distilled four times. This won't even get you drunk. It's so pure. And I said, watch this.
Michael Turley
Yeah, of course it will get you drunk.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, stop. My brother quit drinking too. And he was about like Jason, but he still has some pent up energy. Hey, Kyle, throw that picture up on the board. Y' all, look at me. And he'll throw it up. So my wife sends me this and says, why is your brother trolling random girls on the Internet? She's a Swifty fan. My wife's a Swifty fan. So she saw this Swifty thing, the Swifty post, and she looks down below, Kyle, please put it up. There's timing in this thing. There's timing, Darius. Okay, so read that.
Michael Turley
I can't go to the mall because everybody thinks I'm Taylor Swift and see.
John Clay Wolf
The response and who it is.
Michael Turley
Keep dreaming. Seriously, my brother, Your brother, My brother just, just trolling.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, what's trolling?
Michael Turley
That poor woman. Keep dreaming.
John Clay Wolf
But it's just so funny that she, she comes across a post on Taylor Swift thing and sees my brother banging on this gal that makes a post about saying that she looks like Taylor Swift. Her brother's like, yeah, keep dreaming. Seriously, that's funny. So the point is, is remember that when you you do leave a digital footprint and people like us will make.
Michael Turley
Fun of you, we will find you.
Bob O.
So is that an alcohol related dealer?
John Clay Wolf
No, he quit drinking so I can't blame it on that.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. Saying the reason he quit drinking so he had to find something else to prevent or.
Michael Turley
Now we troll people.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. So his trolling is what he's doing now.
John Clay Wolf
Online trolling. Hey. 8008-0072-3480-0800. Rate of the lightning rounds coming up in like five minutes. But if you want to get in line to get your car bed by me, go ahead and start now. 800-800-723-4.
Michael Turley
They said there's a website actually that's making a case for having a magic number of cocktails you should have at a party. They say two drinks will make you relaxed and kind of sociable. And I agree with that. Without getting sloppy or belligerent. And how many of us have gone to Christmas parties where somebody's made a complete ass of themselves? That's depending on your usual number of drinks, of course. That is cut number 11. Michael, if you have time. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So how much do you drink? I'd say I'm good for about 10 or 12. Okay.
Richard Rollins
10 or 12 a week. That's not bad. Well, week. Well, you drink 10 or 12 beers a day. You counting beers too.
Michael Turley
Right?
John Clay Wolf
800, 800. Seven, two, three, four. Who's Jack in D.C. are you there?
Richard Rollins

Ashtray full of smokes, a lot of bottles and grease and maybe a spilled can of diesel in the back and busted windshield, bald tires. Oklahoma package. Then we're gonna have to cut it back a little bit. We'll be right back. My name is John Clay Wolf. 800 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. 800800 radio by cars on the radio.

Richard Rollins
Hey, man, I'm on my way to look At a truck. It's a 70 model Ford truck with 80,000 arrest on miles long wheelbase from the original owner. What. What kind of prices do.
John Clay Wolf
Are you wanting to buy it for me or you buying it for you?
Richard Rollins
Yeah, no, I'm buying it for you.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. I need you. I'm getting more and more of this lately and it's fine. You guys want to bird dog us cars, I love it. But I got to figure out how to shape it better because like when you go to give me the VIN and you get a customer service agent you want to do a sidewinder deal on, they don't know what to do. And you know guys that know what cars are worth and don't have the money to buy them and you want to partner cars with us. Go to, go to GMTV garage. Go to gmtvgarage.com and click email john or jcw show and click email John and I'll get you with one of our buyers, our field buyers and let's see if this works out. We'll put everybody to work. We'll put the world to work. So, but I don't. What about, what about go to load it up into the website. Go to, go to gmtvgarage.com and load it up and I'll have somebody call you and y' all can work on it. But, but if you need to have a price that we can buy it for in photos and stuff before we get going so that we can save time. My name is John Clay Wolfe by Cars and radio for America's best car buyer. Give me the vin.com yes, some people.
Radio Announcer
Say syndicated shows aren't that good because they don't have that local feel, right? But you don't skyrocket to the number one weekend spot by sucking. Hey, the largest radio show and fastest growing podcast, the John Clay Wolf Show. Go to jcwshow.com and now back to the John Clay Wolf show presented by givemetheven.com this is the John Clay Wolf Show.
John Clay Wolf
Merry Christmas everybody. How are y'?
Richard Rollins
All?
John Clay Wolf
We are live. It is December 20, five days before the big day. Big day, Big day. We are running cars this week at the auction with just a handful, so we're damn near off. And then the next week our auction is on New Year's Eve, which is going to be a disaster also. Why you just having auctions on on holidays like that? It's not a disaster but it, you cannot run a full program. You can't bring a thousand cars. You're not. It's not going to work. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. What were you saying about some guy at the gas station?
J.D. Ryan
I was at a random gas station and, you know, just walking around and getting some stuff and going to the counter, and the guy looked at me, and I'm like, hey. He goes, hey, tell John Clay Wolf I said hi. I'm like, hi. All right. Who the hell are you? I'm thinking in my head, I don't know who this guy is and how the hell.
John Clay Wolf
He's a YouTuber, and he's watching the videos and. And he sees you in them.
J.D. Ryan
I I. It took me aback. I was like, okay, did scare you? Oh, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
A little, little baby random Turley can't handle his fame.
J.D. Ryan
I've never had.
Michael Turley
You've never had people just rand. Well, yeah, they know you now, man. Now that you're.
J.D. Ryan
They'll say something. Oh, yeah, Listen to the show. But this was just like, tell John High. I'm like, yep, okay. It's cool.
John Clay Wolf
I love it. It's Community is what it's called. We built it.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, I started thinking about, like, well, the, I mean, they're in. You got two videos, Almost a million views. Do you see that?
John Clay Wolf
Those long ones? Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, that's crazy.
John Clay Wolf
And there's a couple right behind that. It's, it's the. Yeah, it's. It's finally kind of working. You know, it's funny is when you're in town in Walnut, I can see the. I can tell the show listeners a mile away. Like, yesterday, I pulled up and I saw this couple walking down the street, and I was like, here they come. And they're from out of town, and they're a show listener.
Michael Turley
Listener.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, man, I'm from Canada. We had to come by, you know, and his wife's like, she was like, the car, man. The car, man. We gotta go to car town. We gotta go to car town. It was in the middle of the day where there wasn't anything going on. And, you know, I took him into the rattlesnake and I gave him a shirt. He's like, I want to buy a shirt. I'm like, here? He's like, no, I'm gonna buy it. Nah, you came from Canada, dude. Come on.
Michael Turley
It came from Canada.
John Clay Wolf
That's cool.
Michael Turley
Oh, my God.
J.D. Ryan
When they come to town to the nut and they go to the roadhouse.
John Clay Wolf
Yep.
J.D. Ryan
They're gonna see the biggest screen known to man. I I. John, you haven't seen this?
Michael Turley
No.
J.D. Ryan
He's got these large movie screen.
John Clay Wolf
Kyle. We play the clip.
J.D. Ryan
It's amazing. I walk in there. Yeah. Bama is playing ou and I walk in and.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, my God. No, no, no. That's above the bar. Wait till it comes back.
J.D. Ryan
Wait, wait. Look at that.
Michael Turley
Dude.
John Clay Wolf
Seriously, it covers the whole stage. It's like 20 by 12.
Michael Turley
Like a movie theater.
J.D. Ryan
Crystal clear.
John Clay Wolf
Clear.
J.D. Ryan
Crystal clear it looks.
John Clay Wolf
And we've got the good sound in there now.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
I'm finally getting the. The roadhouse. So. So the rattlesnake name is going away. It's gonna be called Walnut springs roadhouse. And we're redoing the menu. Got Reggie moved up here. Layton's in here. We've got some good people. And Paul's still running sound and doing his band thing, but we're changing it. We'll have a grand opening hopefully in mid January. It might be late January, but a lot of change. I finally. I'm not allowed to talk about the previous manager on the radio who was part owner. I did buy her out. She is gone. But it's really fun to be able to finally do this the right way, because when I bought into it, I was like, here's what we're going to do. And she just wanted to fight about everything. So I just finally said after last year's motorcycle rally, I was like, hey, there's $30,000 of operating capital in the bank account. Maybe it's more. I hope not. I said, here's what we're going to do. You're right, I'm wrong. Now, when I bought into this thing, it was because it was financially struggling. Bad.
Martha Stewart
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
And you got it there. So I injected capital. Paul put in more capital, and I was like, you're right, I'm wrong. You've got this. I'm staying out of it. I'll come in here once a month and get a burger. I'm not talking about it much on the radio anymore. You show me you can make this work. You got $30,000 worth of Runway, and when you run out of money, you're gone. And. Okay, so I said in. The accountant said, the third week in August is when you'll run out of money based on this Runway. And that was. That was like, May 1st, and it was the third week in August.
Michael Turley
Wow. Nailed it.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I didn't. She did. The accountant. So we. We did a buyout, and she's gone. And now we're doing all the changes.
Michael Turley
That's called the roadhouse.
John Clay Wolf
No. Walnut springs road.
Michael Turley
Springs road.
John Clay Wolf
Got a great big 20 foot neon that is ordered, you know, like old school. Yeah. And it will be installed hopefully mid January. So that's. We're timing all these changes. Spending a lot of money.
Michael Turley
Like, where's the big. The big thing out front?
John Clay Wolf
Where?
Michael Turley
That's.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, so that's coming down.
Michael Turley
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
And then.
J.D. Ryan
Big thing out front.
John Clay Wolf
The big thing.
Michael Turley
Sorry, what's that? What's it called? The marquee.
J.D. Ryan
Marquee. Okay.
Michael Turley
Pardon me. The marquee out front.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, that marquee's going away. Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Well, the.
Michael Turley
Because it looks small town theater.
John Clay Wolf
Ish.
Michael Turley
I like that.
John Clay Wolf
So this big double sided neon's going up. Oh, wow. So it's gonna look real.
Michael Turley
That's huge.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Michael Turley
Yeah. That's awesome.
J.D. Ryan
Oh yeah. That's cool.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
And it's kind of in Harley colors and it's. It's. It'll be the best. Chicken wing, little roadhouse, chicken fried steak. Rock and roll.
Michael Turley
Awesome.
John Clay Wolf
Motorhead Lounge in a town of 700 in the hill country. That there's. It's great on the weekends, but it ain't very good during the week. There's just not enough people. Enough people?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, there's just not enough people with that big screen. There's plenty.
John Clay Wolf
It's got to be the largest screen in three counties. I dare someone to show me one that's bigger. Seriously, In a public place that's not a movie theater.
J.D. Ryan
I think the only place I can think of is Texas Live for the folks that know about that place.
John Clay Wolf
That's Tarrant County.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, but I'm. I'm serious. No, in the Metroplex. That's the only one I can think of that. That's this big. So I mean, you're right there. Right.
John Clay Wolf
So the stage was unattractive. It works. And so the movie theater rolls. The movie screen rolls down to cover the stage. Yeah. And it's got the. We went with the high dollar projector. That really lights it up and you feel like you're there. It is the best. Damn. I saw this in California in Oceanside, I believe. No, it was Carlsbad. And I watched a game of the place there. I was like, that is the deal. And it was packed. This. This screen and having these games going in. The way we're rigging this up, it will. It will be fine in the menu. We. Cheese fries. Go down there and try those. Anyways, it's coming around.
J.D. Ryan
So when are you gonna put like just, you know, close the doors and have your own videos up there and stuff like that? Just kind of close the doors and.
John Clay Wolf
Have my own videos, you know.
J.D. Ryan
No, as an owner, you don't think, you don't think about this stuff. You can do whatever you want, right? As an owner of a place I.
John Clay Wolf
Owned a bar was my first business. Two of them, actually. And I, I, I. Are you talking about, like, watching videos of myself like a weirdo?
J.D. Ryan
No, not your weird. You know, I'm not saying that you would watch porn, but you could put it up there on the screen. You just, just do some, something just.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, that did not cross my mind, okay? That thought never crossed my mind. That's an odd thought and I'm glad that it. You shared that with the world.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, well, I'm just a vanity thing. Something, whatever it did, you could. Because you could put anything.
John Clay Wolf
Dude, I've lost so much money in this place in the past year. I've got nothing on my mind but fixing it. Porn is not part of that. Vanity is not part of that. People are. You're rich. Somebody said last time you got so much money. Well, let me tell you something, bud. The reason I've got money is because I don't do stupid stuff. And what I've been doing for the past year with this other management was stupid. Sitting here, letting this thing just leak money. Yeah, like a. Yeah, no, no, porn is not in the repertoire.
Michael Turley
No, the, yeah, the, the curtain just came back on Michael Turley. So it just happened.
John Clay Wolf
We have to have this thing beefed up. The cantina has done so well, and there's a reason. And my partner over there is incredible. What really happened was we were going to put the cantina next to the roadhouse in where the steakhouse is. And Felipe Armenta came over there, who's a big time chef in Dallas Fort Worth, and he's going to help us design it. It. And she wouldn't listen to him. And he find. Actually he was nice enough to let her go work in one of his Mexican restaurants in Fort Worth called Maria's for four days just to get the vibe and understand it. And she didn't want to do Mexican food. She didn't want to do Mexican food. So after he came back in the second time and started trying to teach her, he looked at me and he said, hey man, screw this gal. Let's go do the canteen across the street, you and me. And I just said, okay, let's do it. Yeah. I didn't say okay, but, but I didn't say okay. What do you think? I said okay day. Because he's so good. I knew I was in good hands. And that thing's been nothing but smooth.
Michael Turley
So good.
John Clay Wolf
So, anyway, we've got some new management in there, and everybody's the. The staff's great. They're just waiting to be directed properly. And they've been frustrated as hell with me because I've been sitting here biting my lip for months, like, what are you gonna do, John? What are you gonna do? We'll just wait. We'll just wait. We'll just wait. This thing's falling apart. I understand, but what about the liquor? What about the money? What happened? Just.
Richard Rollins
Just.
John Clay Wolf
Let's just see what happens, because I couldn't do anything until I got. Got cold control.
Bob O.
Gotcha.
John Clay Wolf
And now, Bob, did you like that tv?
Bob O.
Absolutely.
John Clay Wolf
Isn't that crazy?
Bob O.
At the Roadhouse, Shirley and I were talking. I don't know of any other place that has one that size. Maybe there's one venue we talked about maybe, but we're not sure.
John Clay Wolf
There's one in Dallas called Cosm that is like the Omni Theater.
Bob O.
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
It's like the Sphere. That's a whole different level.
Michael Turley
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
But, yeah, we've got a TV at the Roadhouse, and the football games will be on today, and it is awesome experience. Please know when you're in there, there is a lot more decoration coming. There's a lot more vibe coming. We've ordered it. We're building it over the next month. And Ted Nugent is playing. He loves it so much.
Michael Turley
New Year's Eve.
John Clay Wolf
He wants to play again New Year's Eve.
Bob O.
That's great.
John Clay Wolf
He called you? Oh, yeah.
Bob O.
I mean, come on.
John Clay Wolf
That's pretty cool. He just said, dude, this was the best vibe I've. I. He said ever. I just can't believe it was ever. I mean, it's Ted Nugent. But he said, I got to do that again. He said, let's do it New Year's Eve. I was like, okay. I said, you. Do you think we can say something? I'm Ted Nugent. Of course. We can sell it out. We'll be right back. Should be the star of a Hollywood movie.
Richard Rollins
But there I was.

Radio Announcer
Now back to the John Clay Wolf show, presented by givemethevin.com hit him up right now. 1, 800, 800 radio. This is the John Clay Wolf.
John Clay Wolf
Wolf Show. I've gotten five calls from different high school coaches this week about Nolan.
Bob O.
Really?
Richard Rollins
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
That's positive.
J.D. Ryan
They're recruiting?
John Clay Wolf
Yes.
J.D. Ryan
Cool.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, dude, football is no longer football. It is football business.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, for sure. When A and M literally announces that they signed a receiver to a new contract.
John Clay Wolf
This college football, right? Yeah, right, right.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. I was like, okay, this kid's a.
John Clay Wolf
Sophomore in high school. Hey, that's good. They're.
J.D. Ryan
They're smart because before they would just say, hey, your dad works in this area, but we're gonna get him a job over here. And that way you can move to this town. You don't have to do that anymore. I don't think. I don't know. I don't know how it works in high school as far as that private.
John Clay Wolf
School works in public school for sure. Okay. Yeah.
Bob O.
But you know all the guys that are bitching about this, and I know I only know a couple of like, like parent age people who are bitching about it. None of them have superstar athletes in their families, by the way. But don't you want to reward the achievement? This is how we do it today.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, that's fine. He's a really good quarterback, but he's built so big that everybody's like, linebacker. There's one coach particularly that I really like a lot, and that's where. But I like the school he's at too, you know, we'll just see. I know he loves Jerry Maguire. Right, right, right.
Bob O.
I know he loves Pat Patrick Mahomes, but, like, do you start to think of more of a McNair Roethlisberger type quarterback?
John Clay Wolf
I hadn't really been thinking.
Bob O.
He is. He has got that big old dude.
John Clay Wolf
Here's what happened. It's very simple. I met his mother. She's a very attractive woman, but she has not. But. And she has a. She's. She's thick. Right. She's not dainty. And she's got like. Her thighs are larger than mine, but they're. You know, they're. And she's stout. And I was looking at her when we were talking. I Said if you and I had kids and they got your lower body as a man in my upper. We'd really have some ball players. So we started breeding for him a long time ago.
Michael Turley
Damn.
John Clay Wolf
This was all planned out.
Michael Turley
Yeah. Started breeding for.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, we started breeding and, and, and she's a Viking.
Michael Turley
Oh, that's right.
John Clay Wolf
She's Copenhagen.
Michael Turley
Yeah, that's right.
John Clay Wolf
And the Viking gene showed up in this one one big time.
Michael Turley
It did.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, he looks like. What's the guy with the hammer and Thor. Yeah. And we've got to keep him down because he likes to work out. I'm like, dude, you can't get that big if you're a quarterback. You just can't. If, if, if he did shift and went to linebacker or he would turn into a meathead all the way because he's. He's got meathead in his. In his head.
Martha Stewart
He.
John Clay Wolf
He squats 500 pounds. Dude. He's. He's a quarterback and he's a sophomore.
J.D. Ryan
You can be a big quarterback if you run too.
John Clay Wolf
He runs like a champ.
J.D. Ryan
So if you're running a.
John Clay Wolf
Running too big.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
You can't get too big.
J.D. Ryan
No. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And you know what else they said is that they like the. This one guy was telling me likes the, the shorter quarterbacks. He's six. And I say, hopefully he'll get a couple more inches. You know, he's only a sophomore. He's like, we like shorter quarterbacks. Shorter quarterbacks are actually working the system better right now. Really?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, yeah, Lineman. And they're tall. I mean, 6, 5, 6, 7. But. But the way they're clearing paths, lanes for the quarterbacks now, it doesn't matter. And if he can roll out and run, that's fine.
John Clay Wolf
Well, what's that Mexican dude name from Tennessee? How tall is he?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, Diego Pave. He's like maybe six foot, maybe.
John Clay Wolf
And he's like 40 years old, right?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I know. Basically he's 40, but how did you. What do you think about this guy Fernando winning the Heisman?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, that was pretty. He did it for God.
J.D. Ryan
I thought it was a good story.
John Clay Wolf
Great story. I just gotta make fun of something, Cube.
J.D. Ryan
I mean, his family or, you know.
John Clay Wolf
Gonzalez, you know, we brought Elian Gonzalez over. He works as a manager. Forgive me. The Vin, the kid that wrote came across on the river.
Michael Turley
Sure. We all remember.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, in Miami, his name's now Albert. He changed it because everybody was all over him. Because it was alien. Yeah, but this is his sibling.
Michael Turley
This is his.
John Clay Wolf
Yes, we like Albert Eing. So much that we went back and we got. What's this guy's name?
J.D. Ryan
Fernando.
John Clay Wolf
Fernando brought him over, too. And now he's a superstar. I mean, we. We make celebrities around here.
J.D. Ryan
He wins the Heisman for Indiana University, and it's the first, you know, American. Yeah, I mean, it's a good story. He's a. His mom has palsy. I mean, there's a whole story background with it where then you have the guy you're talking about, Diego Paavi, he's.
John Clay Wolf
Just a partier with a hot mom that's D. Dating Theovon. Correct.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. So it's complete opposite.
John Clay Wolf
What?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, yeah, that's. That's what's going on.
Michael Turley
Pay attention to the sports.
J.D. Ryan
But.
John Clay Wolf
But Pavia got on Twitter or something like it, and started banging on the Heisman voting committee. Correct. And said. Y' all are a bunch of. I forgot his exact words, but it was pretty bad.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, F them is what.
John Clay Wolf
F them.
Martha Stewart
It was.
J.D. Ryan
He was at a bar. And, you know, now these bars that come out there, this is like what.
John Clay Wolf
My brother was doing when he. When he was. Who was trolling on Taylor Swift.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. You know, you go to these bars and they bring out the drink and they have the sign and the girls are holding it. And. Well, on the sign it said, F the Heisman committee, but the actual word.
John Clay Wolf
So he didn't write it.
J.D. Ryan
No, but he has to tell him to do it. What you're going to tell him to do.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
And then he was flipping off the camera when they're showing.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. So he was. He was definitely engaged. Oh, yeah.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
It was just in bad taste.
Bob O.
Yeah, that's. Man, that's Manzel level dumb.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. Oh, yeah. No, it's gonna hurt.
John Clay Wolf
Barry in Arizona. Speaking of Manzel level dumb, what have you got?
Richard Rollins
Manzillo. Hey, can we start out. Can you tell Charlie hi for me?
John Clay Wolf
Hi. Hi, Turley. Hey. Hey, Charlie. Barry at the gas station said hi. Hey, Barry.
Richard Rollins
Yeah, I. I got an 01 Suburban 2500. I talked to you over two years, about two years ago, and I offered.
John Clay Wolf
You 10,000 for it. And that's why I said Manzel level dumb. And here you are coming back. Why didn't you take it? Why didn't you take it two years ago?
Richard Rollins
It was. It was my father in law's and I ended up. You said that you would give 10 for it, so I ended up buying it for 10. And I've been driving it for the last two years, but it had under.
John Clay Wolf
A hundred thousand miles when you called me.
Richard Rollins
Two years ago it did. It had a like 97.
John Clay Wolf
There's a difference. I know this sounds dumb, but it's like, you know, there's a statutory rape. Age 18 is clear. 17 is not. When you hit the hundred, it changes the age.
Richard Rollins
I get it. It's got no re. Entry burn. It's beautiful, man. It's scratch. It's got a. It does not have the. Those like high dollar floor mats that. That improve the price of the truck.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, God. Stop. So how much is it?
Bob O.
No weather tech.
John Clay Wolf
Who cares? How much is it?
Richard Rollins
It does not have leather tech.
Bob O.
What?
John Clay Wolf
How much is it now?
Richard Rollins
How much do I want?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, what we take for it. What we want, what we'll take are two different numbers. That, that's just life in general, as you know.
Richard Rollins
No, I. I get it, man. I'm just. I'm trying to see if you're still a taker at the same price or. I did put about 4 grand into the new air conditioning system. I had the compressor flake and it ruined the system, so I. I replaced that for you.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Was it working when you called me the first time? Was that two years ago? Was the. So you didn't redo it for me? You didn't redo it for me? You redid it for you? Because when I offered you ten grand, we had an air conditioner. Then you lost an air conditioner because you're silly. And now we have to buy a new air conditioner and you want me to pay for it? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Richard Rollins
Not at all. Not at all. I'm just letting you know that it's got a brand new AC for you.
John Clay Wolf
I liked the old one. Can you put the old one on back working properly?
Richard Rollins
Okay, so yes, let's put the old.
John Clay Wolf
One back in and working properly. Does 8,000 buy it?
Richard Rollins
I think we're. Yeah, I think maybe it'll. Sure, we'll do a deal. Okay, maybe nine.
John Clay Wolf
If we'll do this, take photos and go to give me photos. Go to givemetheven.com, load it up and buyers that are listening to. Give me the VIN that you hear the conversation say, john, hit me at eight on the radio. I'll take nine. Just skip. The whole two years ago thing is just going to confuse the hell out of everybody. And please don't bring up the air conditioner. Yeah, I'd like to buy it. I'll still try to buy it. I actually just bought one of Those at Mikamoto auction the other day was just like that. Guess what I gave for it. Guess what I gave for it. Eight grand. No, I had a 454. Remember the white one? Turley said 454 on the side. No, I've just bought the same one for eight grand at an auction.
Richard Rollins
I guarantee this thing is. This thing that's cleaner than that. I'll give you 100 bucks if yours is cleaner than mine.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, well, mine's gone and it lost just a smidge. But I was just about right because I. I had to pay 8 grand plus a 600 buy fee. So I was 8, 600 plus shipping. And on yours I gotta have shipping. So I was in about nine grand and I sold it for like nine grand. It was exactly right there. So that's the money on.
Richard Rollins
Yeah, I would have to drop it off and say, I guess.
John Clay Wolf

John Clay Wolf
So, you know, for the past several months we've been launching a YouTube video, a really well produced one at noon Central Saturday. In this week's video is the Fire Chicken recap. It takes all the two and a half years of us getting killed and beating our brains on this car and doing a video that's cool but in pure. But we never could get it finished. So in pure fire chicken curse format, guess what happened?
J.D. Ryan
It's not done.
John Clay Wolf
The video is not ready.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, perfect.
John Clay Wolf
So there will be no video today.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, no.
Michael Turley
What would you expect anything less?
John Clay Wolf
I, I hear you. I just, I was fighting it. And last night about 9 o', clock, I said just enjoy your. Just, just a complete disgust. Just, just go. Yeah, just. Everybody just get the hell away from me. I'm so sick of this.
J.D. Ryan
Were they telling you why they couldn't get it done or.
John Clay Wolf
I know exactly why. Okay. We brought in another guy to try to help because I was afraid the main guy, Braden, who's been doing such a great job, is gonna get burned Out. So we brought in another guy to help and he flaked.
Martha Stewart
Wow.
John Clay Wolf
So we assigned him a workload and he flaked. Flaked, flake, flaked. He has a wedding this week and he's got to go do pictures of. Well, that's great. Why didn't you tell us that Monday? So anyway, there will be no video this week, but it will come up next week, next Saturday.
J.D. Ryan
Big, nice New Year's.
John Clay Wolf
Whatever. Whatever. Yeah.
Bob O.
How would you think about all the. All the tips and tricks and everything that's gone by since summer of 2020?
John Clay Wolf
I don't even know anything. I don't even know. 70, 74 is what it feels like, right?
Bob O.
I mean, there's a lot of. There's a lot of time. There's a lot of emotion, a lot. You know, that's. I mean, that's a situation about how.
John Clay Wolf
Many people have lost their job over that car in the past two and a half years? I think seven.
J.D. Ryan
I think it's eight.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I think I was trying to go back and count them. I believe it's eight people that touched that car.
John Clay Wolf
So there's a God, there's a. There's a rip list. In rip, we go through all the people who, who, who got killed by this car. Okay. It's like Christine. Yeah. You know, rest in peace. Keith. Rest in peace. Ken. Rest in peace. Squirrel. Rest in peace. Jake. Rest. I mean, just Chicago guy, right? Rest in peace. Chicago Bill. Oh, yeah.
Bob O.
That's five off the top of your head in 30 seconds, right? It's like. Yeah, it's amazing.
John Clay Wolf
Peace, squirrel, squirrel. Son in law. Baby daddy. You know, is it your son in law if he's, if your daughter is carrying his child and he lives in the back house.
J.D. Ryan
Wait, say it again now.
John Clay Wolf
In the country, right. Not the city. Is it your son in law if your daughter is carrying this man's child and the man lives in your back house?
J.D. Ryan
They're not married.
John Clay Wolf
No, but it's the. Yeah, I think possibly. I think three counties out of a metro area, the labels change.
Bob O.
Absolutely. Yeah, absolutely.
John Clay Wolf
I'm gonna go son in law. Yeah, that's it. I don't even know if they're still together. I have no idea. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. So who got the million dollars for. For the signing with A and M?
J.D. Ryan
It was a Carver, I believe, the wide receiver for A M. I don't know if it's million dollars, by the way. They haven't released it.
John Clay Wolf
They're always quiet about that. If you notice, they don't really announce the prices.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, they haven't always speculation, just they. They. Basically what they're doing is keeping him from going into the portal. For those that don't know, you can go into the portal.
Michael Turley
And what's a portal?
J.D. Ryan
It's where it's like free agency.
John Clay Wolf
Here's what happens. So you get married.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And then a year after your marriage, you can get online and find a new wife, or a new wife can say, hey, I'll pay you X amount of money to come with me and you can leave and have no penalty after a year. Yep.
J.D. Ryan
And so in college, they want to recruit you, and so other teams are recruiting well to prevent them from leaving. Now the schools are paying to keep them in the school. It doesn't used to be. Well, I love this school and I love this program. And now I need the money.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
To keep me here.
John Clay Wolf
Is there.
Michael Turley
Is there some kind of a salary cap?
John Clay Wolf
I mean, not yet. No.
J.D. Ryan
But it's coming.
Michael Turley
It's coming.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. And that's why the bigger schools are up there now. And then the smaller schools, the ones that lose those players that are good for one year, and they're like, hey, yeah, you're not going to be able to pay me, but this school over here is going to pay me, so I'm going to go to them.
John Clay Wolf
Do you know what school's carrying the highest salary right now?
J.D. Ryan
I've heard it's Texas Tech. That's what I've heard.
John Clay Wolf
That was a loaded question. I've heard that, too. And I've heard next year is 48 million.
Michael Turley
What?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
For who? For the players.
J.D. Ryan
Players?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Holy Right mackerel.
Michael Turley
I said, schmack.
John Clay Wolf
And who is going in? Who's going. Is Texas Tech in the playoff this year?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Now, wait a minute. Do y' all remember. Let's go back in time. Do y' all remember eight years ago when I was talking about a guy named Joey McGuire that I used to play high school football with and that I was trying to get SMU to hire him, and I told him, this will be our next Gary Patterson. And they said, no, he doesn't have enough experience. I said, you're not listening to me and my buddies that run Golden Eagle. Golden Eagle, Double Eagle Oil hired him, got him with Tech, and he. Now they're. I'll put some money on. They're going to the Natty this year.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. I think your bet is that. I thought he was gonna. You said they were Gonna win the National?
John Clay Wolf
I think we did. We did two bets, didn't we?
J.D. Ryan
Well, the first one, and we both agree, I think they're gonna win their first playoff game.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, So I get 100 on that one.
J.D. Ryan
No, we're agreeing on that one.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Second one was. You said they would win at all. I don't agree with that. So I'll bet you the hundred on that.
John Clay Wolf
Unless you bet. I remember talking about this. I wanted the first hundred to offset this hundred.
J.D. Ryan
I'm giving you another hundred. Do you want to get into the bets now?
John Clay Wolf
Now? Yeah, but let's not go too deep. Let's skim them.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, I wanted to get into. So I said, all right, I'll give you something else to feed off of.
John Clay Wolf
So what'd you give me?
J.D. Ryan
And so I'm gonna bet a hundred dollars that A and M does not cover today. They're favored by three and a half points.
John Clay Wolf
And who are they playing?
J.D. Ryan
Miami.
John Clay Wolf
And you said, I'm gonna go ahead and take them. I'm. I'm with you. No, I'm against you.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, that's what I saying.
John Clay Wolf
So there's my first hundred.
J.D. Ryan
And then second hundred is the.
John Clay Wolf
They might not win. They probably won't win, but they're going to go. I do think we'll find out next weekend when they go to Miami. SMU beat Miami, Louisville beat Miami. Someone else beat Miami.
J.D. Ryan
Didn't they have three losses or two losses? But like I talked about, Alabama had.
John Clay Wolf
Three losses and they beat. Oh, you. Last night.
J.D. Ryan
And A and M has two coordinators that are coaches right now that are going to other schools.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
J.D. Ryan
So they're going to coach today.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
J.D. Ryan
But they're also head coaches and other programs that they have to worry about right now. So they're not completely focused. I think it's a. So people aren't paying attention to that. And also they're not paying attention to A and M's special teams is not great.
John Clay Wolf
Miami, did you watch. Miami's just not that good.
J.D. Ryan
Did you watch Bama and OU on.
John Clay Wolf
Our largest screen in the world at the Walnut Springs Roadhouse that we just got installed at 5 o' clock last night. And if y' all are around here and you want to watch the games this weekend, you need to come to Walnut Springs, Texas and sit down and try out our new cheese fries and our wings and all of our good stuff and watch the largest screen in three counties at a bar.
J.D. Ryan
And on that large screen, you saw that a field goal kicker for. Oh, you missed two Field goals that really would have helped him out, would.
John Clay Wolf
Help him a lot.
J.D. Ryan
A lot. Yeah. So special teams makes a big difference. A and M does not have a good kick.
Bob O.
So what are the other teams that those coordinators are going to?
J.D. Ryan
The offense coordinator is going to Kansas State. And I can't remember where the other guys go into some directional school or whatever.
Bob O.
I don't know.
John Clay Wolf
What's a directional school?
J.D. Ryan
North, northwest, south, directional. I don't know. I can't remember where he's going. But they're leaving.
John Clay Wolf
You're getting lazy.
J.D. Ryan
I am getting lazy, yes.
John Clay Wolf
Direction?
Bob O.
Kansas. Kansas.
John Clay Wolf
How did we do last week? Real quick on the bets.
J.D. Ryan
So for the bets, real quick.
John Clay Wolf
Let me pull it up.
J.D. Ryan
It was a kiss. It was a push. Yeah. Three.
John Clay Wolf
Three.
J.D. Ryan
Unfortunately.
John Clay Wolf
So let's call off the college games.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, real quick. The first one, 11 o' clock at Kyle Field. Number 10, Miami versus number 7, A&M. Texas A and M there.
John Clay Wolf
Obviously I've got A and M with the three.
J.D. Ryan
Yes. And I'm saying no, they're not going to cover. Next game at 3 o' clock on TNT. 11 and 2, TNT.
John Clay Wolf
Is that still a network?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, it is. I know. 11 and two. Two lane versus number six, Ole Miss. They're 11 and one. Ole Miss is favored by seven 17 and a half points now.
Bob O.
17.
J.D. Ryan
John, remember this, though. Ole Miss beat Tulane back in September, 45 to 10. They were up by three scores at halftime. Does I know Ole Miss doesn't have Lane?
John Clay Wolf
Kiffin, I'm gonna take. Now that you told me that. You just baited me in nicely. Thank you.
Martha Stewart
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And I'm gonna take the Ole Miss with the points. That's a big handicap. 17 and a half. That's a lot.
J.D. Ryan
I think they're. They're gonna win by 17 before.
John Clay Wolf
You told me that I was going to go the other way. Two Lane will surprise you. We'll see.
J.D. Ryan
I think Ole Miss.
John Clay Wolf
So what's your bet?
J.D. Ryan
That Ole Miss covers the spread.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so we're 20 and a half now.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. No, it's 17.
Richard Rollins
What?
J.D. Ryan
Oh, you want me to move the line?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I mean, I'm betting with you.
J.D. Ryan
Okay, so I'll move the line to 19 and a half.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, I'll take it. All right.
J.D. Ryan
So you think the Ole miss wins by 19 and a half?
John Clay Wolf
Yep.
J.D. Ryan
All right, I agree too. So now I'm gonna bump it one more time.
John Clay Wolf
No, no, no, no. Bull. No. Hey, bar room rules. You just set your new line. You can't go again.
J.D. Ryan
That's what you Said we have the buck off. That was the part of the.
John Clay Wolf
That you lied. No, no, you did. You made the rules. It's buck off. All right, whatever.
J.D. Ryan
So it's a 19. So you got to buck me off.
Bob O.
Come on, John. You got to show your conviction that ole miss is going to get the honor of losing to Georgia next week.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, I'm. Now I'm going to hold and you can have the high.
J.D. Ryan
Okay, so I'll take the 19.
John Clay Wolf
So I'm. I'm two lane and I got 19 and a half.
J.D. Ryan
Okay. You made this game.
John Clay Wolf
Whatever. Yeah. I can't. I'm not making this up.
J.D. Ryan
All right. The last college game. Number number 12, James Madison. 12 and one at Oregon.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, let me. Let me guess. The line.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. What do you think the line's going to?
John Clay Wolf
It's got to be a line like we just talked about. It's got to be a twenty pointer.
J.D. Ryan
It's twenty and a half.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Oregon's favorite by two. Twenty and a half. I'll go first.
John Clay Wolf
Here's one thing you've got to consider. So you're coaching this team and you get up by 20 points. Don't you pull all your guys and not. Not risk an injury for the next game. Because. Because winning big does not change your placement at this point. Because it's. It's sudden death playoffs. Correct.
J.D. Ryan
At some point. Yeah, you would. If you're up enough, you're going to put in back.
John Clay Wolf
Look at what happened to Patrick Mahomes. He blew mind his. His knee out. He's gone. It could happen to anybody at any time. Your kid blew his knee out playing drunk boxing the other day. It could happen to anybody. Anybody. So I'm gonna go. I'm gonna take the under.
J.D. Ryan
All right, that's fine with. I think Oregon wins by 20 and a half. So that's our college picks there. We'll be right back.
John Clay Wolf

Oh, P.W. from North Dallas. Good morning, sir. So your Lamborghini stunt, did you see that guy flying around the Lamborghini in a helicopter in Dallas this week? What kind of prick would have a Lamborghini delivered to their office and helicopter this brick? The hell was that all about?
Richard Rollins
Oh, man. You know, I said I didn't care how they got it here, just get it here. If they have to buy a freaking helicopter, fine. But you know, seriously though, it was a pretty good. Pretty good thing. We were doing it for some little bit of street cred, I guess, a little bit of move. And then also just we had to get it to two places in one day. So that was the quickest way to do it.
John Clay Wolf
I know what you're doing, obviously. And are you when?
Richard Rollins
We've already announced it. We just announced it yesterday. The Lamborghini Stirrado is our next giveaway car. So that Lamborghini that was flying over Dallas and landed in my parking lot is now up for grabs on gas. Monkeygarage.com As a matter of fact, I forgot. I get so excited about the Lambo that I forgot that we're still giving away the brand new Corvette ZR1, which is ends tomorrow night. So right now, if you go there and anything you spend, you get entries. It also gets you entered to win both cars.
John Clay Wolf
So here's what the djd, yep, they grab these crazy desirable cars and they legitimately give them away. And sometimes they give away cash on top of it and you buy gas, monkey merch. Okay? And the hope is that the, the money off the merch will Cover the cost of the giveaway or get close to it. Sure. And he just, he just keeps raising the bar. So he went with a $200,000 Corvette or $300,000 Corvette. And this Lamborghini is 400. 350,000 is about right, Rich.
Richard Rollins
Yes, sir. And then I just secured a serial number. 11 Corvette ZR1X. So the, the big bad daddies should be here around April.
John Clay Wolf
Gotcha. So what they did with the. We're sitting there, we drink beer on Wednesday afternoons after the auction. This has been going on for a while actually. And he said, hey man, did you see that McLaren fly in and in Vegas to the RM auction on the helicopter? That's badass. He said, we ought to get a Lamborghini. I'm into this Lamborghini. We fly it in on a helicopter. I called Johnny the helicopter guy, I said, hey. He said, yeah, call these guys. I gave it to Richard. He called. Next thing I knew, there's a helicopter landing, a gas monkey to pick up. They had to build the rack. Rack, the aluminum rack for the thing. They were out there weighing the Lamborghini and the rack because everything is. Aviation's got to be perfect. It's like, hey man, when we take off, we need you to bring the. We only need 5 or 3 gallons of fuel in it because the limit on the 4,000 pound limit of what the helicopter could safely do is very weight sensitive. And they're weighing it and re weighing it and working it and planning and then you can't carry over people. There's all these rules in DFW airspace. There was, it was a lot to do that took more energy than you thought.
Richard Rollins
It was a. Yeah, it was a lot to get planned. We did a full video that we're going to release in a few days on behind the Scenes. I mean, how much went into it is absolutely ridiculous. I mean they had literally landed and pulled barrels out and we're emptying gas or fuel off of the helicopter to get to the weight. And then we had to, you know, fly certain areas. And then I took it all the way out to this place in East Texas called River Run and went out in the, in the mud and the muck and went, went four wheeling in it and took it up the hills and down the hills and, and had some fun there.
John Clay Wolf
Because a stirrado is a all wheel drive Baja ish looking Lamborghini. There are very few of them. So they went out to a, to an off road park and started dogging. They didn't dog It. But a new Lamborghini driving it. Yeah. Just being.
Richard Rollins
I gotta tell you this. I'll tell you this because we're all car guys here. I was absolutely impressed with the performance of that car. And I didn't think I was gonna be. I was like, well, it'll probably do okay. It was actually a monster on the.
John Clay Wolf
On the.
Richard Rollins
On the dirt and the muck and the mud and the water and everything. It was. It was very impressive.
John Clay Wolf
Did y'. All. Did y' all stop at this pressure washer on the way home and clean.
Richard Rollins
It up the next day? We had to get it all cleaned up because we just finished filming a whole bunch of stuff with it yesterday morning. And they're starting to come out now, and all the news, and we're getting a little bit of viral clip on it. So hopefully people all over the nation start checking it out. Mountain. And, you know, for the. For the mere price of this. Of a T shirt, you could have a Lamborghini. So what are you gonna do?
John Clay Wolf
Why not try it once or twice or three times? So.
Richard Rollins
Well, it's. I guarantee you this much, it's better odds than trying to win the lottery tonight.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. That billion And a half gas monkey.com is where you register for that.
Richard Rollins
And no gas monkeygarage.
John Clay Wolf
Gas monkey garage dot com. There you go. There's the giveaway point. We have this Ferrari that everybody's heard too much about over the years, and it's been a problem. And we sent it off to these French. We sent it off to these French guys to build. And they brought it back. And we sent it back, and we brought it back, and all this stuff. And if guys follow either one of our youtubes, you've seen all this, but now so bad. Reality tv. Are we gonna make it? Are we gonna make it right? And it's all staged.
Richard Rollins
It's just real.
John Clay Wolf
This is not staged. This is a complete pain in the ass. And now I feel the pressure, Rich. I've never felt. I'm always watching from the sidelines and watching y' all hustle to get stuff done. But we've got all of our guys from the Walnut Springs, the guys that build my stuff out there helping, too. I mean, these guys are on a dead run to make this right.
J.D. Ryan
When are they trying to get it done?
John Clay Wolf
It's got across the block at Barrett on January 28, 27.
Richard Rollins
I don't know. But I'll tell you, they're at the shop right now. They're working all through the weekend. And I took the high road, John, you always tell it like it is. And you told the truth about our friend over there in france. And I took kind of the high road and was like, well, you know, difficult. And this. Well, I'll tell you right now, that guy's a pos.
Martha Stewart
Wow.
Richard Rollins
We have rebuilt and touched every single component and piece of that car to fix it because he thought he was making art. And we are making a vehicle right.
John Clay Wolf
The deeper they got into it. So we cut 18 inches off the ass end of it. We had to move the motor up 3, 4 inches, bring it down 2 inches. Redo the rear ends, redo the drive lines, redo all the suspension, change the wheels, changing the paint, changing the interior, changing the dash, changing. Well, none of the electronics were proper anyway. I mean, it's a complete build. It might have been easier to do it ourselves and then rework what they did.
Richard Rollins
Is that it 100 would have. And now, because we're doing it, I believe how badass the car is going to actually be. I might be raising my hand to buy it.
John Clay Wolf
How are the guys? Are my guys doing? Okay job. Because that scared me. Because y' all are such pros, and these guys are good, but they're not used to that environment. You know what?
Richard Rollins
Your guys are actually doing real good. And the whole team. As a matter of fact, your guys and my guys are really melded together. And it's. It's working like a finely tuned orchestra. It's just taking time. Time's the one thing I can't improve on or increase or give more of. But, yeah, they're all doing real good.
John Clay Wolf
The car, you know, when I left there Wednesday afternoon, and we were getting the specs, they were putting the arms for the wing and all that. I'm really starting to see it. You are, too. I think it's going to be better than what we thought it was going to be. To tell the truth.
Richard Rollins
I guarantee you it is. I'm not kidding. When I say I might buy it. I mean, it is freaking unbelievable.
John Clay Wolf
It is unbelievable.
Richard Rollins
I'm thinking also I. I. You know, since we were talking about it anyways, I called our friend Craig jackson, and he's looking into the. The rules and what have you. But I think we flied into barrett jackson.
John Clay Wolf
Why not?
J.D. Ryan
There you go.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I'd appreciate it if he'd pay for a little bit of that, because the. The. The invoice on this thing is getting long.
Richard Rollins
I will split it with you. Like everything else, We're. We're partners in this no, if Craig.
John Clay Wolf
Jackson would pay for a little bit of it. Because think about all the promo. He's gonna get it prepared. Jackson.
Richard Rollins
Jackson doesn't even pay for his own suit. Probably he gets somebody to do it.
John Clay Wolf
All right, so we're gonna helicopter that in. I mean.
J.D. Ryan
Why not? That's awesome.
John Clay Wolf
Who knows who. I mean, if you're gonna be a bear, be a grizzly. Screw it. Whatever. I've got a. I've got a few cars going out there this year and. All right, you got one month, I've got one what?
Michael Turley
One month.
John Clay Wolf
One month. One month. Yeah, but we don't have a full. We don't have a full month. We've got to get it done and then photoed and like what he's doing with the Lamborghini right now and showcase pictures, take it out to the track, do a four. It's got four wheel drive in the back. So do all the stuff we need to do to build it up. There's a lot of. I mean, this is. This is a big old fat pain in the ass.
Michael Turley
Ass.
John Clay Wolf
I mean, this is work. That's a schedule that I'm like, how are we gonna do it? I mean, we. As they.
Richard Rollins
If you want.
John Clay Wolf
Do what?
Richard Rollins
You know, if you want me to take that. If you want me to take that pressure off you, I'll buy you out of your house.
John Clay Wolf
I am too deep, dude. I'm pregnant with twins. We've. We've been two and a half. Two years of this. There's no way I'm letting off now. I mean, no way. No way I'm getting off the gas now. All right, we gotta go to break, dude. Thanks for calling in and congrats on your limber. Lamborghini stunt pulled off. And I can't wait to see the vid. You have a vid going up today at 11, right?
Richard Rollins
Yes, sir.
John Clay Wolf
We missed ours this week. Why? Because the fire chicken that's taken us two and a half years to build, we compiled the two and a half years and this was our strike date. We were going to launch it today and we missed it because we can't finish anything on that. And your boy Ray, if you. I can't talk bad about people, but we brought in some extra help from one of your old hands and he completely dropped the ball. Well, that's why he's no longer with you.
Richard Rollins
They left me. If they left me, it's because they couldn't handle it.
John Clay Wolf
Live and learn. All right, man. Thank you. Talk to you soon.
Martha Stewart
Later.
John Clay Wolf
Later. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. Be right back.
Radio Announcer
Now back to the John Clay Wolf Show.
Richard Rollins
This is the North Pole.
John Clay Wolf
No, it's not.
Radio Announcer
Hit him up right now. 1-800-800-RADIO.
Michael Turley
Okay, people, Santa's coming in town.
Radio Announcer
This is the John Clay Wolf Show.
John Clay Wolf
Who's playing this weekend in pro the NFL games.
J.D. Ryan
We gotta wait for this open. This is the most special open ever. There's some good games today, just today itself. You got three college games and then you got an NFL game that's basically for the division. Packers at the Bears. Bears, Saturday today, 7:20 Central. Fox. Bears are favored by point and a half.
John Clay Wolf
Bears, they've been surprising me all year.
J.D. Ryan
You know what? I'm gonna let you do that. Yeah, I think the packers covering that one, our win on that one. Buccaneers, this is Sunday 7 and 7 at the 77 Panthers. This is for the NFC South. The winner will basically get a home field game in the playoffs. Man, is it a push the bucket. Well, right now the Buccaneers are favored at three and a half. It's at Cat Carolina. And the Buccaneers have been just kind of wow recently. They're not doing what they were doing early in the year when they're winning games late.
John Clay Wolf
So I'm gonna take the bucks.
J.D. Ryan
It's my turn first.
John Clay Wolf
Come on now. Jeez.
J.D. Ryan
I'm gonna go ahead and take the bucks to win and cover that spread. Yes, by three and a half. So you agree, right?
John Clay Wolf
I'm learning the stroke jobs, Bubba. Yeah. So I'll raise the line to five and a half.
J.D. Ryan
I'll let you take that.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
Next game, Sunday at 3 o'. Clock, 10 and 4. Jacksonville Jaguars at the 12 and 2 Broncos. The Broncos are favored by 10. No 3 1/2 points.
John Clay Wolf
I got the Bronx.
J.D. Ryan
I do too. So I got to move the line. Do you think that the Broncos will win by five and a half if I say yes?
John Clay Wolf
Do I get to lock in?
J.D. Ryan
No, if it depends.
John Clay Wolf
I don't like this new rule. You made the rule up. Okay, well, I'd like to undo the rule. Yes. I think when you set the line that you're taking a position. Let's go back to that because I, I think that my translation of the rule change was incorrect. I, I, I'll, I'll take responsibility for screwing it up.
J.D. Ryan
So now we're in a, it's a set. So whenever I move it, when you.
John Clay Wolf
Call it, then the other guy gets the high low off of it.
J.D. Ryan
Okay, so it's five and a half.
John Clay Wolf
I'm Gonna go Bronx.
J.D. Ryan
Okay. All right, so that's set.
John Clay Wolf
All right.
J.D. Ryan
Then the night game, the Patriots 11 and three at the Ravens. Ravens are favored by three and a half Sunday night, 7:20. And you see that Bills game, Patriots game last week? Really good. Bills came back.
John Clay Wolf
Whose pick is it? I'm not listening all your bs.
J.D. Ryan
What are you talking about? It is my actually your pick.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Because I picked last time, so I agree. So now we have to set the line to how much they win by.
John Clay Wolf
The Patriots are dogs.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, they're dogs by three and a half. So you have to set the line. What do you think they're gonna win by? How many points?
John Clay Wolf
One. That's a four point jump.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah. So now it's just locked, just straight up one point. So they just have to win because you're locked on it.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
J.D. Ryan
I have to agree or not. And just. I agree with that.
John Clay Wolf
Yes. Okay, so then, then it's just the Patriots win.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, you just baited me into guess. Just picking the Patriots, basically. Which is fine because we're both picking them.
John Clay Wolf
So how do we win?
J.D. Ryan
Well, they have to win by one point.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so. So it's going to be less than one and a half. It's gonna be a half to me.
J.D. Ryan
One and a half. Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So if they don't even are betting within a point. Point.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Okay.
J.D. Ryan
If they don't win, then I. You win. So.
John Clay Wolf
That's right. Yeah. There you go.
J.D. Ryan
Then there's our picks right there.
John Clay Wolf
J.D. i think I got some money coming this week. Oh, good.
J.D. Ryan
You need some money coming.
John Clay Wolf
I do. I'm down.
J.D. Ryan
Pretty cute, by the way. A M game is just about to kick off right now.
John Clay Wolf
Like anybody cares.
J.D. Ryan
Well, it's 11 o' clock and folks that are wanting to watch some good.
John Clay Wolf
College go to the roadhouse.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
And we got the biggest TV in the world.
Michael Turley
In the world.
Martha Stewart
In the world.
John Clay Wolf
We went from in two counties, three counties, to North Texas to the world.
Michael Turley
You can see that crazy 2 point conversion on Thursday Night Football.
J.D. Ryan
Yes.
Michael Turley
Seahawks quarterback, he threw what he thought was an incomplete pass, was tipped, it bounced into the end zone. But after further review, they looked at it and they said it was actually a backcourt pass. You want to hear this audience?
John Clay Wolf
Imagine if there was a conception that is broken down like this.
Bob O.
It was crazy.
J.D. Ryan
Oh, it was insane.
John Clay Wolf
No, a conception.
Michael Turley
Conception like somebody making a baby.
John Clay Wolf
I thought I got out, but just he got tipped in this and that.
Bob O.
Did you see it?
Michael Turley
Cut number nine.
Bob O.
Crazy play, man.
John Clay Wolf
I saw it. I watched it live.
Bob O.
One of the one on the game.
John Clay Wolf
It was awesome.
Richard Rollins
Three receivers to the left.
John Clay Wolf
Quick throw here and into a lot of traffic and incomplete. Terry, what do you see on this play here?
Richard Rollins
Al, this may be a backward pass.
Michael Turley
We need to get a good angle on it. But if it's backward, then, then, then this recovery in the clear and continuing.
Richard Rollins
Action in the end zone would be.
Michael Turley
A two good two point conversion for Seattle.
Richard Rollins
After reviewing the play, the quarterback threw.
John Clay Wolf
A backward pass which is recovered in the end zone by the offense.
Richard Rollins
It is a successful conversion.
John Clay Wolf
That is the craziest ever.
Richard Rollins
Craziest ever.
Michael Turley
Took the game into overtime where the Seahawks ended up beating the Rams 38, 37 and took the Rams out of the top spot in the nfc.
J.D. Ryan
Great game, dude.
John Clay Wolf
When he.
Bob O.
When their rules guy, when their rules analyst first just suggested that that might have been a backward pass, I stood up and was like, what are you talking about?
John Clay Wolf
Hey, this backward pass. Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
And then for those that play, fans couldn't believe it. It didn't help that Puka Nuku. I just went crazy.
Michael Turley
Yeah, Puka Nakua.
John Clay Wolf
When are we gonna do. Hey, during the break, let's talk about the Feed the Trolls segment. Let's go over the deals.
Bob O.
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Because JD said that he read them and he thought that they were out of context and it's gonna be hard to do like that.
Michael Turley
I just thought.
Bob O.
Is that what he said?
Michael Turley
No, I said what you said. I mean context. I said, going in, we need to give context as to the videos we're watching, which is what I told you, Bob.
Bob O.
I think I wrote that down. It's in the double parentheses at the top of each entry.
Martha Stewart
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. 800, 800. 7, 2, 3, 4. The Lightning Round is coming up.
Michael Turley
God, here comes the bus. And I don't mean the prevost outside throwing JD under the bus. That's a new segment.
Bob O.
He does. He does.
Michael Turley
Damn.
Bob O.
How do you spell prick? J. Z. Wow.
Michael Turley
Wow. It wasn't a school bus. It was a prevost.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Fancy people are asking about the motorcycle rally, and I don't know, there's some drama in town going on with the motorcycle rally.
Michael Turley
Are y' all still doing the Rattlesnake roundup?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, that's not y'.
Richard Rollins
All.
John Clay Wolf
That's the city of Walnut. Spring.
Michael Turley
Okay, but is that still going on the round?
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, that's like in March.
Michael Turley
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
It's cool.
Michael Turley
Just checking. It is awesome. That's why I was wondering if it was still happening.
J.D. Ryan
And you're changing the name from the Rattlesnake to the Roadhouse.
John Clay Wolf
Right. Walnut Springs Roadhouse.
J.D. Ryan
What. What's the change for?
John Clay Wolf
Because we're in the middle of nowhere and when we're marketing it makes more sense to say Walnut Springs Roadhouse. Where is the Roadhouse? It's in Walnut Springs versus Rattlesnake. And I'll tell you that I'm just. I want away from all branding of the previous owner.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
I want nothing to do with it. So if you want to buy rattlesnake merch, you need to get down there and get it because we ain't buying no more. There's still some there it is going away. I want to get rid of all of the energy of that whole operation and change it to the way that we see fit.
J.D. Ryan
Turn the page.
John Clay Wolf
And we're working on it right now. And Reggie Ferguson just moved up here from Austin to be my consulig area. What do you call it? Consilia. Sure.
Michael Turley
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
What do you call Bob? Conciliaria.
Bob O.
Conciliatory.
John Clay Wolf
Concierge. And he moved into one of the silos and he has a lot of experience running restaurants and he's been with us for 10 years. And his. His parents used to. His uncle, he ran the re.
J.D. Ryan
Not Riada Angelos.
John Clay Wolf
Well, here's the neat thing about Reggie's Riata in Fort Worth. Very successful restaurant staple. Started in a small town in Texas like Walnut Springs.
Bob O.
Oh really?
John Clay Wolf
Called Alpine. Way out there in. In the Davis mountains west, north of big Reggie been there, worked there and helped open that was that 30 years ago. Yeah. And then they. They built their big one in Fort Worth. Anyway, he's got a lot of experience in this and he was up for the Christmas party that we had at the Roadhouse and said, man, I sure miss these little towns. I sure would like to come back up here. And I said well, I think that's a great idea. And next week he's on the road packing his stuff and he lives here now and. And we are revamping.
Bob O.
I'm no expert, but if there's a ride or guy for it, I can't think of it.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. Like he's very laid back. He's very chill. And I've told him last night I said there's going to be times when you. When I'm going to. You're just gonna have to say John combined down. Cuz I've been waiting so long to get control of this thing so we can fix it right. I'm so excited about fixing it right. I. I get real like do this D. We got to do this because I've been. It's been in my head for like a year and a half, and finally we can do it. So let's go. Yeah, let's go. Let's go fix it. The canteen is killing it. That thing is taking a lot of my energy. I'm glad Reggie's here that I can pour it all on his head and let him handle it, because I'm wore out. We'll be right back. Back.
Radio Announcer
From the Wolf Radio studios, it's time for the John Clay Wolf Show.com Now. John Clay Wolf.
John Clay Wolf
Good morning, everybody. It is Saturday, December 20th, five days before Christmas. Thank you for joining in the 900 people watching on the live stream. Good morning, Wolf Packers. J.D. ryan, Bobo, myself and Turley. John Clay Wolf show. And I guess we've got a new member here, Ted Nugent. We do.
Martha Stewart
Yeah.
Richard Rollins
John Clay Wolf. A very merry, merry Christmas to all of you.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
So let me set this up. Ted played two nights at the. At the. At the. I got a quick calling to Rattlesnake at the Roadhouse last weekend, and the first night was good. It's just fine is better than good. But then Saturday night became great, and it was weird, and Ted kind of levitated off the stage and he turned into a extraterrestrial. And he called me a few days later. He's like, hey, man.
J.D. Ryan
Yep.
John Clay Wolf
What are you doing New Year's Eve? I'm like, I don't know. We don't have any plans yet. We got to do that again. We're gonna do it again. We got to do it again. I'm like, what do you mean? He's like, I want to do it a show. The guys want to do a show. He said that was the damnedest thing. He said that. What you actually said was in your entire career, which you probably aren't remembering your entire career because you said that in your entire career, that was the most spiritual feeling, crowd moment that you've ever experienced, and you've gonna do it again. That's what I.
Richard Rollins
Well, you're surrounded with the caliber of work ethic and spirit musicians, these savants, these gifted, James Brown worthy musicians. John Kutz on drums and Johnny Big on bass guitar. Especially my team. Calvin Ross from Lone Star Music and Chris Hadley on the PA and your team there at the Walnut Springs Ballroom, Rattlesnake Roadhouse. I'm gonna tell you, we put our heart and soul into every lick, every night, every gig. John, is the most important gig of my life. Plus, I had my children and my Grandchildren there and my friends, my hunting buddies. You were there. So I knew I had to levitate. And you're right, my feet never took touch the grounds. It was the most intense groove Motown funk brother James Brown worthy soul music outrage orgy of my life. And to be able to say that because I do remember every gig going back to Walt's Malt Shop on Warwick and grand river in Detroit in 1958, where I got a. I got a vanilla malt as payment for my, my three songs I played. And they were Chuck Berry songs. But yes, I. I'm aware of, of my musical surroundings, my musical responsibilities. And I see the bright eyed, bushy tailed nothing but teeth and eyeballs in the audience with clenched fists and sexy girls shaking their hips and dancing. How could I not go above and beyond the call of duty? Which I did. So let's do it again.
John Clay Wolf
New Year's Eve.
Richard Rollins
Dad, are we not.
Bob O.
Are we sure Ted wouldn't like a cocktail?
John Clay Wolf
He doesn't drink.
Bob O.
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
He doesn't. He eats deer meat. He doesn't drink. No drugs. Okay. Nothing.
Richard Rollins
No.
Michael Turley
No.
Richard Rollins
Clean and sober for 77 years because I respect my sacred temple. How about this? This. How many young people have heard the term referencing their gift of life from God as a sacred temple? And you don't. You don't put chemical warfare into your sacred temple. So I'm locked and ready to rock the Glock around the clock. Dr. Spock. I love this music. I love, I love people that love my music. And it's, it's. It's out, John. It's out of body. I. My feet never touch the ground. So I went, what the hell? Let's bring in the 250th anniversary of America at the Walnut Springs Ballroom on New Year's Eve. So here we go, buddy.
John Clay Wolf
So this is. I'm gonna start calling you Adele or Elvis. Do you know what they're famous for? Resident Imagine Residencies. Residencies. So I.
Richard Rollins
Yes, I would love to do that.
John Clay Wolf
I see what's happening here. You see, Ted lives in these hills out here, right in Bosque, right outside of Bosque County. So he can drive here. You know, I was thinking, remember Darryl Hall? He did Daryl's house. That's what we need to start doing. If we're just going to do this once a quarter and you start bringing your friends in and we do big video production, you start putting together a thing with your jam buddies. That would be awesome. Awesome. Yeah.
Richard Rollins
You put, you put all that technology together. John Wolf and Uncle Ted will Unleash the beast. Every song, every lick, every night. And boy, do I have the best friends. From Steven Tyler and Joe Perry to Sammy Hagar and Ricky Medlock and my fellow Damn Yankees, Tommy, Sean Blazer, Night Ranger. I mean, are you kidding me? I got the best musicians at my side. That's why I have such effervescent masculinity, musical groove. Because of the people that surround me.
J.D. Ryan
They.
Richard Rollins
They inspire my every finger move on the yelp, the fretboard of the mighty Gibson Birdland guitar.
John Clay Wolf
That's what we need to do. That would be incredible.
Richard Rollins
That's what we need to.
John Clay Wolf
That's what we need to do. Because what gave me the idea is I was watching a video of you and Sammy. Sammy was out at your ranch and y' all were doing of kind of a version of that. And I was like, this is what we need to do. This would be incredible. I mean, that would be the, the neatest seat ever for a fan of any of these guys. And me, hell, I just want to have a good time.
Richard Rollins
I really believe that Walnut Springs here in Central Texas is really the epicenter of absolute gonzo. Real music lovers that pay attention to the groove, the tightness, the rhythm, the drums and bass uniting like. Like a funk brother and Uncle Ted flame throwing guitar licks and. And my songs are so much fun. They have such an inescapable groove. Again thanks to my rhythm section. But yes, when I played the Armadillo World headquarters back in 67 with the Amboy Dukes, I scared those hippies because we, we had so much tight groove. We were sons of the Motown Funk brothers. So New Year's Eve, if you want to see what it was like, like when we created this outrage of Chuck Berry and Little Richard and Bo Diddley and the Motown Funk Brothers, it will be at the Walnut Springs Ballroom on New Year's Eve 2025 when I came.
John Clay Wolf
So I bought this, this ranch out here. And I literally bought this place so I'd have an outdoor place with the boys. I've got three sons. And I drove through that town. I came out here for the land. And then I went back into town. I started looking around, I said, man, this looks like a movie set. And I started thinking about the, you know, it's an hour from DFW and the, the terrain and the topography. And I went into this place and went into that place. I was like, this is already set up like a movie set. And I was like, we need to build Luckenbach Texas Green Hall. This is the place to do this and make it like Motor City for hot rods and bikes also. And I am so happy that you are catching that vibe. You came back this week and went to the Bosque Cantina. You see what I'm talking about?
Richard Rollins
That's right. And what, what. And by the way, you know, when you're clean and sober for 77 years, your taste buds actually work. So. My taste buds, I have an obligation to stimulate and satisfy my taste buds. With Mrs. Nugent speaking of stimulation, she and I went to the Bosque Cantina. And your staff, the people were wonderful. The food was world class in that little village of Walnut Springs above a big salute to you and that team. We, we like, we used to like to travel around the world just to eat, like Anthony Bourdain, my dear friend, God rest his soul. But I only have to go to Walnut Springs now. Thank you for that.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, I'm. But what I'm really excited about, this new found friendship that you and I have. Is that your vision. We haven't really talked about this, but I, I hear you talk and I'm listening, nodding my head. You see what I see here?
Richard Rollins
After, there's a heart and soul to real America. I was born in Detroit, John and Team 1948. You know, where it was revered, not just respected, but Detroit, the Motor City, the industrial revolution, the epicenter of work ethic, entrepreneur, risk taking and sacrifice. There was no such thing as blood sucking and welfare. It was only how early can you get up? How much heart and soul soul can you put into producing the greatest world class quality, desirable product? You stayed late and if you did that, you went from a guitar playing, playing Walt's Malt Shop to selling out Cal Jam and making a million bucks in one night. And that's the work ethic that I see in this part of the country. In spite of Austin, in spite of Dallas, in spite of San Antonio, in spite of Houston, in spite of. Of El Paso. Not only the guilty need to feel guilty, but you know what I'm talking about. The heart and soul of America is in the Walnut Springs and in the, in the Fredericksburg and in Kerrville. Those kind of. That's still the heart and soul of America. Yes, yes.
John Clay Wolf
It's neat. There's a reason you and I both decided to plant our flag out here. And we both got the same vibe. And I'm super excited about it. I've got one quick question. I've only got two minutes left, but once, something in our conversations I have not asked you and we've talked a lot, but with your political energy at 77 years old. And by the way, guys, when you watch him in plays, concerts, you'll think he's 35 years old. No joke, no question. But what is your goal to push? What is your agenda? I'm not, I'm not saying it's a bad one. But you, you, you're trying to convert and open eyes to what?
Richard Rollins
The self inflicted horror story and curse of apathy where I demand constitutional accountability from my elected employees. A simple we the people experiment in self government is the vision of the founding fathers. Right now, America is King George and Santa Ana all over again. If you don't get that call 1-800-Numbnut and Michael Moore will tell you why you don't need Pride Personal Hygiene. We are, we are in a toilet flush in America. And I'm here with, there's hunternation.org hunternation.org we're focusing on conservatives that don't vote. And in all seven swing states, we got millions of conservatives that had never voted to vote. God, family, country. That's my agenda. It's perfect.
John Clay Wolf
God, family, country. Got it. Nugent will see at New Year's Eve, sir. I'm looking forward to it. All right.
Richard Rollins
Rock and roll. Like you mean it, boys.
John Clay Wolf
Thank you, guys. See you.
Richard Rollins
Wow. Wow.
John Clay Wolf

Bob O.

J.D. Ryan

John Clay Wolf
God, he's gonna help us make this happen. Oh, he's already helped us make this happen. The neat thing about he and I is he wants it to happen too, because. Because it's close to him. Sure. And he said, I can come here and I can drive home. He said, this is it. I'm like, yes, sir, I found it. Bringing in Steven Tyler. Bringing in Sammy. You watched. I'll bet your ass he does it.
Michael Turley
Totally believe you.
John Clay Wolf
Bet your ass he does it. All right, we'll be right back. I'm excited. Lightning rounds next. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. My name is John Clay wolf by cars radio for America's best car buyer, givemetheven.com.

John Clay Wolf
Matt. 1956 Mercury Monterey. No miles, basically 350, trim at five speed. Curry four link on the four door, two door, two door. Thank God.
Richard Rollins
It's. It's a nice car. Tell you what, I won good guys with it the last three years in a row. It wins car shows all the time.
John Clay Wolf
So, you know, the resto mods with the big motors are what, bringing the money. What? Give me some current comps that support your 70 to $75,000. Ask.
Richard Rollins
Oh, man, I, you know, there really isn't many comps around for them. You don't find, you won't see many.
John Clay Wolf
But there's a reason.
Richard Rollins
So I really don't have any comps. I just know what other builds that I've done and seen and, you know, other ones that I. Yeah. That I've seen and known. So that's kind of what I based it off of the finish, the quality of the build.
John Clay Wolf
Oh, it's just desirability and, and I, I base it all off a desirability. And what can I get out of it? Because, I mean, I give you your 70,000 I'm looking for on a car like this. I'm not working for 500 bucks. I'm gonna, I need to spread it. $5,000 because there's so much risk in it. And I don't know this one off the top of my head. I took your number and I just forwarded it to one of my pros on the older cars on, on the non, the original. I call them happy days cars. Yours is better looking than that, but yeah, don't hold your breath on the 70 grand from us. I don't, I don't trust that price point on this car that much unless it's, you know, when we get into that realm. I need LT4, I need supercharger. I need current this, current that, that. That's where I can sell them. Is okay. But the. The these, these original happy days cars, I'll bet, I mean, just go ahead and hurt your feelings. I bet it's gonna.
Richard Rollins
Oh, no, right.
John Clay Wolf
I know, I know, I know, I know. So wait, you've been offered 50 the.
Richard Rollins
Car to appreciate it.
John Clay Wolf
Understood.
Richard Rollins
I think you would understand where I'm coming from, but I get where you're coming from.
John Clay Wolf
So you had a 50 offer. Is that what you said?
Richard Rollins
60.
John Clay Wolf
60. Why didn't you sell it? Because you want a 70. But what did you go look at comps?
Richard Rollins
I wasn't in the.
John Clay Wolf
Oh.
Richard Rollins
Wasn't in the mood to sell it at the time. I have five other cars and I've just been kind of slowly liquidating.
John Clay Wolf
I'm getting a little bit older.
Richard Rollins
Want to kind of move out somewhere where it can just take it easy and. And that's about it.
John Clay Wolf
Go to bring a trailer and look those up. I'm looking at one right now that sold in 2019 for 21,000. I'm sure your car is better. This one's good. Yeah. My suggestion to you is find those.
Richard Rollins
You don't win. Good guy car shows on just good.
John Clay Wolf
I understand. But we've got to turn this thing into money. We've got it.
J.D. Ryan
That.
John Clay Wolf
That's so. So go get familiar with comps and find some comps of desirability that are around your do the research that I would do if I was. Thought I was gonna get this bought and then call us back. All right, thank you.
Richard Rollins
We'll do that.

I love penguins. They're Just the best animal in the world, which is why I'm kind of mad at Santa Claus. Because the penguins hang out with Santa all year round, and it's a penguin's dream to fly. They're like, we want to fly. We want to fly. You know, And Santa has the magical.
Richard Rollins
Ability to make animals fly to guide his sleigh.
John Clay Wolf
And he's completely ignoring the penguins. Instead, he's importing reindeer from Canada. And I don't know if you know this, but Canada is like the North Pole's Mexico. So the best penguins are like, they're stealing our job.
Radio Announcer

J.D. Ryan

Richard Rollins
Thank you.
John Clay Wolf
I appreciate what you're saying. I hear you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
J.D. Ryan
Speaking of Christmas, John from the office, there's a Christmas present.
John Clay Wolf
So the empty frame that we unwrapped on the air last week, that was almost a gag gift. Was this supposed to be in it?
J.D. Ryan
This was supposed to be. Supposed to be in there.
John Clay Wolf
Okay, so we've got a jersey of some sorts.
Michael Turley
We don't know whose it is yet.
Richard Rollins
Pete Rose.
J.D. Ryan
Pete Rose.
John Clay Wolf
That's a good one.
J.D. Ryan
And it's, I believe, signed Pete Rose for the Wall of Shame, everybody. Yeah. That was supposed to be in the gift.
Michael Turley
Last frame.
J.D. Ryan
Funny story. The person that went ahead and ordered it.
Richard Rollins
Yeah.
J.D. Ryan
Didn't realize and read the fine print that it was just the frame, not the jerseys.
Michael Turley
Got a really good deal, so he.
J.D. Ryan
Had to buy the jersey separately. So.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, that's a good one. Thanks, guys.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, no problem.
John Clay Wolf
I love the. The Wall of Shame is a amazing. It's a list of. It's a bunch of frame jerseys on the wall up here in the studio that are people that have made mistakes in their professional sporting career.
Bob O.
That's a very kind way to Put that.
John Clay Wolf
Speaking of unkind ways to put things, let's read some trolling. The. The comments. Comments that people have made on our YouTube videos.
Bob O.
Oh, yeah, Here we go.
Richard Rollins
What do you got?
John Clay Wolf
So I looked through these comments on our YouTube and there's a lot of haters on there.
Bob O.
Yes.
John Clay Wolf
You just can't help it. Sometimes the hate's so bad that I delete it because it's almost poor. Pornographic. Yeah, I. I leave the ones up that are fine, but. But so what I asked Bob to do, I said, why don't you go through and take some of the hate email and let's read it. It's like mean tweets.
Michael Turley
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
So here's a one of the videos. Richard and I trying to buy super rare barn.
Michael Turley
Find super rare barn.
John Clay Wolf
Fine. That's the name of the video. Okay. It was up outside of Sturgis. I remember this.
Michael Turley
Okay.
John Clay Wolf
Guy writes. Really bothers me that it guy with Richard. That the guy with Richard. Gas monkey Richard Rollins is kept leaning and touching on all the cars.
J.D. Ryan
Nice cars.
John Clay Wolf
I've seen this a lot. People get mad because I put my hand on a fender. But what I really do is I grab the door handles or I touch parts that are not that special. I am a recovered paraplegic. I can't balance. Then get a cane when I want to and I'll stand next to the car and have my fingertips on the side leaning against it.
Bob O.
Sure.
John Clay Wolf
Okay. And it just really bothers people. And you can kiss my ass. It's fine.
Michael Turley
There you go.
John Clay Wolf
Trying to negotiate by leaning on another man's car is crazy. And that sad line about having to move and clean them all probably ain't gonna work either. What's that mean? Two clowns, one guy bad mouthing the other guy's paint job, and Rollins saying he ain't gonna gonna steal nothing. Here. Get the F out of here. Here's an exchange. Interesting exchange. Another gas monkey myself were buying a set of cars. Trump says, this is what it looks like to have daddy's money. What's that mean?
Bob O.
The guy's screen name is T. Rump.
John Clay Wolf
Okay?
Bob O.
There's capital R in there.
John Clay Wolf
I think in my 35 years, I've never heard one per another guy replied to him. I've never heard one person with anything going on that says daddy's money. That's a broke D's excuse to make themsel feel better. Dude, if it ain't daddy's money, daddy got rich. So what's the difference? Just because your father was a failure don't hate on another man. Oh, these are commentators hating on each other. Damn, that's cool. Are they saying I have Daddy's money?
Bob O.
Yeah, somebody. I think somebody mentioned something about daddy's money.
John Clay Wolf
Get that straight right now. I. I had to pay for my dad. Tell them for my dad's funeral.
Bob O.
You said get comments. Yeah, you know, I mean, I didn't write that.
John Clay Wolf
I'm not banging.
J.D. Ryan
Don't feed the trolls, John.
John Clay Wolf
I'm not banging on my dad, but give me a break. Hey, he did have money when I was a kid, and that was fun. And I got to grow up with daddy having money. And then when he lost it all.
Bob O.
That'S might have been talking about Richard.
John Clay Wolf
That's what gave me the inspiration to get it back. Adam Crowley sees the Testarossa 6x6, which we're calling the F6 for the first time. This is a video. We need to label the videos so that people know what we're just learning as we go that know where we're going. What's that one called? I Got Betrayed or something? Adam Corolla is far more popular and wealthy than Richard and John. Another guy says Adam is on the Epstein list. Oh.
Bob O.
Oh, geez.
John Clay Wolf
So what? I'm on the Epstein list list. Want to do something about it? Says someone else. No, McNash, you're on the Epstein bar list. What is Epstein bar? That is. What's Epstein bar?
Bob O.
I think that's like a neurological disease, right?
John Clay Wolf
That's right. That's right. Roasting a guy on a reel that wants his 50,000 for a stock 86K5 Blazer. In the 80s, I wanted to date Pamela Anderson, but that isn't happening either. I reply. She probably would now, and her makeup wouldn't rub off on your zipper anymore. Adam Crow's bus. All right, I get it.
Michael Turley
Some of them are cute.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah, some of them are cute. There's a lot. The problem is, is Bob, the good ones that are burners, I delete a lot of them that are just absolute. Just too rough. So maybe I should take pictures of them and give them to you something.
Bob O.
You know, or leave them. Or leave them up, you know, or they're too harsh.
John Clay Wolf
They're too bad. I mean, a lot of them are just so ridiculous.
Bob O.
Yeah.
Michael Turley
I.
Bob O.
You know, I was surprised that I didn't find any as harsh or in the kind of quantity that you described.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah. So it's my fault. I need to take them and give them to you. We'll read them on the radio.
Bob O.
Whatever works. You probably got somebody that can do that for you if you just know what they are. But, yeah, you can shoot them over.
John Clay Wolf
All right, what you got, Jay?
Michael Turley
It is the most wonderful time of the year and a lot of people are putting out Christmas videos. One of our friends, Gary Busey, has put out a Christmas video. I think the man's finally totally lost his mind.
Richard Rollins
Mind.
Michael Turley
He left a very bizarre Christmas gift on his Instagram for all of us this week. It's kind of an impromptu addition. Maybe the CNC toy with the cow says move.
John Clay Wolf
Did he have a stroke?
Michael Turley
I don't think so.
John Clay Wolf
It looks really wrong.
Bob O.
He's had a motorcycle accident or three. He's. He's been. He's been good and banged up the last 20 years.
John Clay Wolf
You gotta play.
Michael Turley
So think of these. CN say where the cow says mountain, he wants to tell us here about a certain animal. Cut number 13.
Richard Rollins
Hey, it's Gary Busey and I have got a great Christmas present for you. Listen to this. That's what a goose sounds like.
John Clay Wolf
Speech impedimentarians. They let you know they're up there, honk, honk. You get a bunch of geese together, honk, honk, honk.
Richard Rollins
They're honking in the air.
J.D. Ryan
God, he looks terrible. The videos on jcwshow.com I mean, look at him.
Michael Turley
I know.
Bob O.
Do you remember Jerry Busey in his heyday? Like he played Buddy Holly.
Richard Rollins
Buddy Holly, yeah.
Michael Turley
I mean, look great.
Bob O.
He was the villain in the original Lethal Weapon.
Michael Turley
Is this what I'm calling drugs duty or is this something else?
Bob O.
Quite possibly, yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, what did Trump say about last week on the administration would reset the fuel efficiency.
Michael Turley
They're announcing last week they're going to reset the fuel fuel efficiency standards, noting that the previous Biden administration rules put tremendous upward pressure on car prices. Remember, Biden was going to have to make by whatever the year was, 20.
John Clay Wolf
28 or 30, something like all the.
Michael Turley
Cars had to head some outrageous miles per gallon thing, which means basically, you know, that he put tremendous pressure on car prices is what he's saying. Which maybe soon.
John Clay Wolf
Well, Trump did that with terror.
Michael Turley
American drivers will be having conversations like this. Once again, cut number three.
Richard Rollins
Hey, that thing got a Hemi.
John Clay Wolf
You're about to find out. Hey, that thing got a Hemi.
Michael Turley
Yeah.
Martha Stewart
Sweet.
John Clay Wolf
Hey, that thing got a Hemi, right?
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Well, now I got a hit.
Bob O.
Me too.
John Clay Wolf
But I got something you don't got. Check this out.
Radio Announcer
The Hemi legend continues.
John Clay Wolf
Sweet.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah, the Hemi will be back.
Michael Turley
Now it's coming back.
Bob O.
Muscle cars again.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
John Clay Wolf
Well, I mean GM needs to make a real muscle car. It's time for them. And I was talking to Foos about this. They need, it's the srt, the Dodge thing. They've done such a good job with it over the past. God, it's been 20 years now. General Motors, I mean they have the Corvette, so the ZR1 of course, but it's so expensive. But they need to do, they need to do the Chevelle again is what they need to do. Yeah.
Bob O.
And that mock up we saw of the Chevelle of the Camaro Unibody with the Chevelle.
John Clay Wolf
Yeah.
Bob O.
Built around it. That was like a fake thing. They really ought to do that.
John Clay Wolf
And they did it in Cadillac, the ctsv, the V thing, the whole V thing is awesome. But I think they need to do it in the Chevrolet brand.
Michael Turley
But you said this before. You said the, the battery thing was too soon. It was. We didn't have the infrastructure set up and it was going to fail for this week. Canceled a 6.5 billion dollar battery supply deal with LG. So Ford's getting out of the electric car business.
J.D. Ryan
It's, it's cost them. I was reading 35 billion in loss for this dude experience. 35 billion.
John Clay Wolf
Somebody should listen to me. I said this 10 years ago. I said it five years ago, I said it four years ago. I said it all along. I said this will not work. This will not work. I was like all these jagged legs are on CNBC giving these opinions to somebody. Come to me. I'll tell you exactly how this is going to work. And if you feel wanted, ability, it's desirability is what runs the pocketbook. You buy off of what you want, not of what you have to have. Yeah.
Bob O.
We demoed, Charlie and I drove a couple years ago. That big fully electric electric F150, right?
J.D. Ryan
The lightning. Yeah.
Bob O.
MSRP did what?
John Clay Wolf
100 grand.
J.D. Ryan
Yeah.
Bob O.
And I can speak from experience, it takes two and a half hours to charge that in a fast EV go station.
John Clay Wolf
Right.
Bob O.
You know, so your time and money.
John Clay Wolf
Once it works, it's just not going to work. It's, it's not desirable. And this is just stupid. I mean why. So they're just gonna, the Democrats are gonna mandate. Down, down. Here's how this is going to work and here's what you're going to take and you're going to eat what we want and you're going to work all day and work all night to make payments on these cars that are double the money. So that you can take what we're forcing down on you.
Bob O.
Easily double. Easily double and you're gonna like it.
John Clay Wolf
And you know what? They got a big fu fu in your F and A. And if that's what you want, it costs for $30 billion. And guess who gets to pay the 30 billion back? We do. And what a an elaborate pricing on new cars to try to not go broke for them because they're in the tank. This is ridiculous. Now I'm starting to sound like TED.
Bob O.
N. Let me say, if that's what you want, buy it. Get your schedule together and learn when you got to charge it.
Michael Turley
But don't be angry too when you go.
John Clay Wolf
People call in all the time and they want to sell us their EVS in California because they get $800 a month electric bill.
Michael Turley
You, you talk to them every week. And people with the, with the, with the electric Mustangs, oh, they're angry. Oh, they're so mad. I don't know what I'm talking about.
John Clay Wolf
Why did you buy him? You right.
Bob O.
Oh, don't buy them at mak.
Michael Turley
They bought the bs. They bought the hype. And that would be the new Ford commercial. F you and your whatever you said right.
John Clay Wolf
That's what it's all about, man. We'll be right back. My name is John Clevel. Buy cars on the radio for America's best car buyer. Give me the vintage.

Bob O.
Yeah, we were looking at the Chevelle on the Internet for about six, six weeks a Couple years ago. Didn't happen.
John Clay Wolf
Right?
Richard Rollins
Right. Yeah. Now, I thought I saw you were talking about Corvettes and I just thought I'd let you know.
John Clay Wolf
So I just put it into GPT and I asked if. If this is true. And the short answer is no, GM is not currently bringing the LP back. Is it Internet Rouse? It happens. Don't feel stupid. I fell for it the other day, too, John in Kansas City.
Richard Rollins
The truth is they are going to make room for Donald J. Trump on Mount Rushmore because he is the greatest president ever.
John Clay Wolf

I was colorblind. I couldn't see. I seen shape, shades of colors like I general concepts, but like hunter green, emerald green. Like what? Green's green to me. I never realized there was nuances in prettiness and that some were brighter and tone different.
Richard Rollins

John Clay Wolf
I'd say nine months into no sugar, I started. I think I forgot what it was, but it was a plan at our house. And I come outside and I grab my wife and I go, dude, how long have we had that pretty purple tulip there? She was like, you've walked by that plant for two years. What are you talking about? And slowly I started looking around then I next few days and over the next months, I was like, I'm seeing clear color.

This lively pre-Christmas episode of The John Clay Wolfe Show, powered by GiveMeTheVIN.com, delivers the show’s signature blend of cars, celebrity gossip, classic TV nostalgia, sports banter, candid addiction discussion, offbeat humor, and a strong dose of Texan rock ‘n’ roll spirit. The big themes: holiday vibes, stories from the car world, reflections on public figures, the growing culture of online trolling, lots of laughs about drinking, and a visit from none other than Ted Nugent himself.
“Every gig is the most important gig of my life… I had to levitate, and you're right—my feet never touched the ground.” – Ted Nugent ([114:19])
“You never know anything’s gonna be a hit. We knew it was good, but we didn’t know it was going to be a hit.” – Michael Turley ([02:39])
“The best way to keep from getting a hangover: don’t drink at all. I’m 28 years sober.” – Scott Wolf, caller ([40:02])
“Football is no longer football, it is football business.” – John Clay Wolfe ([66:00])
“Sometimes the hate’s so bad I delete it, because it’s almost pornographic.” – John Clay Wolfe ([132:29])
The episode stays true to the JCW Show’s irreverent, conversational Texas radio style: a little wild, a little crass, a lot of fun, and unapologetically open about the ragged edges of life and business. Guests, hosts, and listeners alike are treated as members of a quirky extended family—where teasing, debate, dark humor, and deep-cut car talk coexist.
This pre-holiday show is a rollercoaster: part car marketplace, part therapy session, part small-town Texas revival, part classic radio variety show. John Clay Wolfe, his crew, his celebrity friends, and his loyal callers collectively create a unique collision of American pop culture, gearhead hustle, and plainspoken candor—plus some big music and small-town dreams for the new year.
