B
Hey there, let's talk about rain.
A
Let's talk about it.
B
You know what? It's just in time for all those end of the year parties. The days, the long holiday weekend. Today officially kicks off stormy weather for our area. So heavy rain, lightning, heavy winds, hail. And we know that with rain comes flooding this current storm complex, mostly offshore currently. And it looks like it's going to weaken as it heads into the Houston area. Only 40% chance of showers during our morning commute into the early afternoon. If you do stay rain free during the day today, you're going to reach like 90 degrees. More rain and storms tonight overnight into tomorrow morning. And that's when the rain lingers through the holiday.
A
Yeah, just a time for Memorial Day
B
weekend, President Trump addressed the African Ebola outbreak, saying he's concerned. His comments yesterday came after an American tested positive for the virus. The American was working in the Democratic Republic of the Congo doing some service. And the World Health Organization declared the current outbreak in the domestic Republic of the Congo and Uganda a public health emergency. I see over 300 suspected cases, 88 deaths. Those Americans were moved to Germany for observation. TSA is challenging travelers to bring as many rotisserie chickens on a plane as you can.
A
This is gonna backfire for them.
B
I think so.
A
I think they were just kind of making a joke. And then you got people that, oh, really? Okay, well, I'll see what I can do.
C
My whole suitcase.
A
Alex would do this.
B
Do you follow? Follow TSA on social media. They're kind of funny.
A
I don't.
B
It's cheeky, if you will, but I
A
feel like they're gonna back themselves into a bit of a corner here.
B
So they're addressing, obviously, the. The protein trend. And people were asking, you know, how can I bring my protein shakes on the plane? Nothing can come on the plane over 3.4 ounces. It doesn't matter if it's a protein
A
shake, bring the powder and then mix it with water. But that's not good enough for protein.
C
They let everybody know, right?
B
They did say that you can fit as many rotisserie chickens as you can in your carry on. And that's where the jokes started to come on.
A
Here they come.
B
I can smell it right now.
A
So people were making AI pictures. There's a lot of them online.
B
It's going to be happening.
C
Just.
A
Just carry on. Full of rotisserie chickens.
B
Shakira been in the news recently. First it was that whole World cup announcement. Big deal. Then she was cheering on her sons at their soccer game. Being super mom today. It's the headline, because she won. Her tax evasion case in Spain was
A
a lot of money.
B
$70 million she's supposed to get back. If you don't remember, it's been going on for, like, eight years. She's been fighting with the Spanish government. They said she was resident. She'd been there more than 183 days. And she's like, no, that's not true. So $70 million.
A
Turns out she was like, there are 160 some days. So it didn't qualify for her to pay all that money, income tax. So she's getting it back.
B
Last but not least, Jack Osborne in the news. He has a YouTub. He did a live stream recently. Answered some Fan questions about that whole bio biopic that you know will feature his parents.

A
Don't you think it's a horrible day to p. Pile on me for something so silly?
C
I'm trying to ask questions.
A
Do you think this is the best time for that? I'm.
C
I'm the reporter. I gotta ask the hard hitting questions.

C
Yeah, the former LA police detective that passed away, or he passed away yesterday. He was part of the O.J. simpson trial back in the 90s. And you may remember him from a lot of that. Like maybe is the reason that OJ Pretty much got off. But what a lot of people aren't talking about was that he was also a master electrician.
A
And so maybe what he did after

he did some master electrician work, I didn't. Let's also remember him as a master electrician. Not like a horrible human being. Like probably got to be during the. Okay, we can remember him as that, too. Probably was a master electrician.

Had to add the game of the year. That was a pretty good one. It was a pretty good. That was a year rivalry right there. Yeah. All right. Well, that's not your question. Your question is I told you about two pops. That's right. I said pop. Get over it. Made of lemon, orange and vanilla. What are they? That is. That is Dr. Pepper. No, dude. Dude, no, no. Big Red. Yes.
B
Jeremiah.
A
Yeah, I gave you. You're right, cuz. Lauren came in. She went to the Dr. Pepper Museum. We had the Dr. Pepper facts. But then we also said Big Red and big blue is made made of lemon, orange and vanilla. Same flavors. It's just different coloring.
B
That's right.
A
It's a citrus cream soda. You got it, Jeremiah. You got it. Let's go.
B
Come on, Jeremiah. We need you at Triumph on Friday night.
A
Yeah, sounds like a plan.
B
It's boys night. Okay. Smart Financial center in Sugarland. Rod is so pumped. Smartfinancialcenter.net if anyone would like to buy their tickets.
A
All right. You snuck one. You snuck one by the goalie on that one for sure. Jeremiah, hang on the phone. Thanks for joining us in homeroom Mo. You got some Houston headlines for us.
B
Yeah, we got some rain just in time for end of the year parties. We got the field days. The long holiday weekend coming up. Today officially kicks off stormy weather for our area. Is it raining outside? I don't know. There's no windows in the studio. But threats today do include heavy rain, lightning, high winds and hail. The current storm complex is mostly offshore. It's going to weaken as it moves into the Houston area. We have a 40% chance for showers during our morning commute into the early afternoon. Then we will see more rain and storms tonight overnight into tomorrow morning. And that's when the rain lingers through the holiday. Nationally, President Trump says an attack planned for today on Iran has been called off. He posted on social media yesterday that the US Is holding off on all military strikes against Iran. They were originally planned for today. The hold order was given after several other countries asked him to stand down because, quote, serious negotiations are now taking place. He said he asked the Pentagon to prepare for a full large scale assault of Iran at a moment's notice. So mass on Friday. We missed National Pizza Party Day. Rod.
A
What? Come on. I love, I just love saying pizza party, pizza party, pizza party.
B
But now after the party, I can report that Pizza Hut is still America's favorite pizza chain.
A
It is.
B
When it comes to a pizza party. In this survey, the majority of people surveyed said the Hut is their preferred place if they're doing a mass order. Okay. So you're ordering a lot of pizza for a pizza party. Where you go, Wing, Pizza Hut came in first.
A
I feel like the school functions, when there's a movie night, I feel like it's always Domino's.
B
Domino's came in second.
A
Okay.
B
It probably has a lot to do with, like where you're located. Right? Like, just do you have a Pizza Hut that delivers? No. Then you're gonna go to Domino's. Third place was Papa John's, which is also a go to for us.
A
When I see people losing their mind over Papa John John's and Domino's Pizza, I'm like, what I don't know about. You wouldn't be caught dead ordering that. Like, in North Tonawanda. Sorry. Like, I'm just saying.
B
Well, to be fair, most people in this survey did choose a local or regional brand, right? Yes. But Pizza Hut is the brand that came in first. You got the regional stuff, right? Local.
C
Shop. Local.
B
Yeah, but you got a pizza place in your neighborhood.
A
But a large cheese and pepperoni pizza getting delivered is 50 bucks.
B
Exactly.
A
When did that happen? Cheese and pepperoni, large.
B
Delivered by some after a tip.
A
50 bucks.
B
I know. It's gross. Japanese officials say two Americans were arrested after breaking into Punch the Monkeys enclosure.
A
What?
B
Just outside of Tokyo over the weekend. Drop. You've got to look for the video. There's a social media post. The zoo said there was an intruder in the enclosure and the pair was arrested. Punch and his stuffed monkey toy went viral after Punch was rejected by his mother.
A
Right.
B
We remember that. The zoo said it's taking additional measures starting today, including expanding the viewing restriction area and putting intrusion prevention nets in place.

All five members still speak regularly. A couple of them have recorded together. It's just gonna be a little hard to get everyone back together, but fans are excited for the opportunity. We Are the Fallen released their only album in 2010.

B
Really?
A
You pointed out it says Ryan on the top of our building.
B
I've never noticed.
A
Come on.
B
Never.
A
Never looked up what's at the top of our building.
B
I guess.
A
Right. R Y A N. That's funny. So yeah, around once in a while. We're here in the Galleria. We assuming that we are gonna all kind of see a little bit of rain today. Partly cloudy skies keeping it warm though. Highs of around 80 knots. Tame Impala sold out show on September 19th. I forgot. This is another one. There's two shows. Right. And we're giving away tickets to the sold out one. Is that what you. I caught you saying it yesterday and that's what kind of made me realize,
B
oh, there's two dates on this paper. I guess I've never really looked into it. It says a pair of tickets to the sold out show September 19th. Tickets for the 20th.
A
Yeah.
B
Are still available. So yeah, two shows.
A
So we got the sold out show tickets for you. Those are coming up after the break. We're gonna play the Shout It Out Loud game at around 8:20. All right. Alex was giving me a little bit of hell. Sabers lost last night. There is nothing better in all of sports. I mean of course the championship games and the Stanley cup finals and the super bowl and all that. But game seven, it's different. It's crazy raw when it's your team. Like, game sevens are awesome when you're not really emotionally invested. Those are great. Those are great when it's your team. And then game seven last night with the Sabres and the Montreal Canadiens, it goes into overtime and it's just, you can't relax. And the thing about hockey, it's so fast, you know, like when your team's on defense, you're watching a football game, the chances, chances of your defense scoring are low, so you're not on high alert. Hockey, your guts are in your, your guts are in your throat the whole time. Because I mean, it just goes back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. It's so fast. It was so fast. They were skating so hard. You could see how tired they were in the overtime yesterday. I'm gonna give myself that 24 hour rule. I don't know if you guys have this, like, okay, I could be sad for 24 hours, but I can't let it ruin. I mean, the Sabers weren't expected. They were the worst team in the NHL in the beginning of the season.
C
They were the one seed.
A
They were the worst. What's that? There were two seed in the beginning of the year.
C
Well, in the playoffs.
A
No, I'm saying they started off the year. They didn't really make a whole lot of crazy changes. Nobody was going into the season like the Buffalo Bills going, this is our year. Nobody said that in the beginning of the Sabers, they were the worst team in the league. They were in last place. They went from last to first. So it was just. It was this unexpected thing that happened with my team, and they hadn't made the playoffs in 14 years. So it was fun. 24 hours. I could be bummed out for 24 hours. And then that's it.
C
You bummed out more than that.
A
It was really fun. I haven't watched this much hockey in 15 years. You know, it was a great year for hockey, all of that. You know, I went to, I went to the Sabres game in December. That's when they just started their winning streak. Sabres didn't get hot until December. Then they became the hottest team from December until the end of the year. So they went, I saw a win. I go to the Sabers almost every Christmas. They lose every time I go. They've been terrible for such a long time. So then the Olympics hit. I'm watching, watching all the Olympic hockey. There was so much hockey this year. It was Fun. And I think a lot of people were. I got one email from one gal. She said, rod, you got me watching this game. You're right. It's super exciting. But on the, The, the, the heat of what happened with the Olympics, I mean, it doesn't get much better than that. Winning the gold and beating Canada for that, and then going. And then your team in the playoffs, it was just 24 hours. It's all like, that's all. I. I'm going to be sad for 24. And then, boom, I'm gon. We need a pro hockey team in Houston. Be so great.
B
Would you go all the time?
A
Would I go all the time for the first couple years, I'd be so excited about it. Yeah. You know, then you get comfortable and you have a team here. I would go a lot. I would. I don't know if that's ever gonna happen here. All right. Astros lost last night. Yeah. Jesus.
C
It was a lot.
A
It's tough. It's tough right now.
B
What are you going to move on to now that hockey's over?
A
I don't know. Just going back to, like, really? I don't know. Hockey's tough, man. They play every other day, and it's the best of seven. And the reason. And I still. And you know this to be true, Alex. The hardest trophy in all of sports to win is the Stanley cup, because everything is a game style. Seven or everything is seven games. So it's the longest road to get to that trophy. It's the oldest trophy. It's the coolest trophy.
C
And like, every team sort of can win it. NBA has like, three teams that are really able to win everything.
A
All right, so that's it. So last night, the game goes into overtime. It's close to 9, 49, 50. I go right in the bathroom. I get out the Clippers. Oh, no. And I. And I hack the beer. So I didn't do razor shake. I had already taken my shower. So that's. I took my shower in between periods. So last night I'm like, I can't. I'm not doing. I'm not monkeying around with this in the morning. So, like, last 10 o', clock, I'm shaving off. I'm shaving off the playoff beard. Thank God it's gone. All right, that's enough on that. On the flip of this break, got a rec check for you. We'll find out what's trending and then we'll get to those sold out Tame Impala tickets. Houston's rock. Houston's Alternative and the Rod Ryan morning show. The Buzz 94. Five the Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. Welcome back. Got a great ticket coming up for you. Sit tight for that. Yeah, we're dealing with a little bit of rain this morning. Okay, fair enough. I got Alex. He's gonna tell us what's trending.
C
Shakira's trending. She won her tax evasion case against the Spanish government. So shout out to Shakira. Shakita.
A
I mean. I mean, you know, it's whatever their government, whatever their IRS is. How could you not be rooting for the Shakira?
B
Right?
A
There's one thing I don't root for
C
is the Spanish irs, I'll tell you that much.
A
They were trying to say that she lived there, I think, because of her ex husband, a certain amount of days.
B
Yeah.
A
And they failed to prove that she, quote unquote, was living there. The amount of days that they said, if it.
C
You just spend like more than half. Half the year somewhere to classify yourself as living somewhere. I know that's how you have to
A
do the U.S. she was like 20, 25 days short of. Of having to pay that money. So she, you know, let's say if it's 180, you got to pay. She proved that she was only there 160, so she didn't have to pay. So they owe her the money back. Okay, so good for her. Yeah. You know, you like to see her getting the money back. I mean, not that she needs it, but. Right. The government doesn't need it.
B
Yeah.
C
I don't want the government.
A
They're just going to waste.
C
Pedro Pascal is trending.
A
He upsets in people because he did
C
what looked like a fan encounter for the Mandalorian and Grogu movie he's a part of right now. He shows up in the Mandalorian suit. They think it's just a regular person in a Mandalorian suit. And then he pulls off the mask. It's Pedro Pascal.
A
What's upsetting about that, though? I read that story too, and I don't understand what would be like, why would you be mad?
C
The people he did it to were like influencers and. And like bloggers for Disney movies and stuff like that. So they're like, you didn't really do that with fans.
A
You did that just so these people
C
would hype you up. And it's like, well, that's kind of how promotion works a lot of times too. But I can. I guess that's why people are mad.
A
I'm not personally mad.
C
But people are mad that it's staged.
A
Some Star wars guy that's got 200 followers. Well, why didn't you do that when I went Ruins the whole franchise. My people would have loved to see that. See? Yeah, didn't you know? I worked last night.
C
The TSA Gold plus is trending. I still don't understand what this is, but it's basically the privatization of the TSA they're going to offer. It's a new public private partnership aimed at modernizing aviation security at select airports across the US So people are talking about TSA plus or TSA Gold Plus. That's just trading knife for the bus.
A
Okay. I don't know what that is either. You got some of those tickets?
B
I do. Do you want them?
A
Yeah, please. Well, I don't want them. Give them away.
B

A
First kind of. Yeah. Yeah. So. Well, you're gonna have a great time, Courtney. That's awesome. Thank you.
B
I appreciate it so much.
A
I appreciate you. I really do. It's gonna be amazing. Let's go to the sold out show just over here. Just reading an article, you know, trying to host a radio show. Reading articles over here.
B
What are you doing?
A
Touching grass leads to greater life satisfaction. We. It's just. I saw that. I saw the headline Touching grass and
B
you're like, this is for me.
A
Well, we say this. We say this on the show. Like, get out and touch grass. I just got done telling you how much hockey I've been watching. It's like, okay, go outside just in time for it to be nice and hot and rainy, you know, which is kind of what's happening today. But they say it's the largest study of its kind. Over 50,000 people from 58 countries. And again and again and again, it shows contact with nature helps people. It helps you feel better. It helps your mood. It helps all those things and those chemicals in your body and stuff. And it needs to be talked about because people aren't going out and touching grass or it's becoming harder and harder. Look where we live. I'm going to do a commercial for the arboretum. I'm telling you. Unpaid.
B
Yeah.
A
Have you been. People don't go. People do not go to. It's right there by Memorial Park. Park. And you start walking around in the arboretum. Am I saying it right? Is there a D in there? Arboretum.
B
I use a T. Arboretum. But I think.
A
I don't know the arborete.
B
It's spelled with a T. Yeah. I don't know.
A
There's a girl over there that sends me emails all the time. Every time I mention it, she's like, man, thank you. They're open seven to seven. It's by Memorial Park.
B
They have really cool events.
A
They do have events.
B
Yes.
A
But all I'm saying is because we live in this concrete jungle of ours now, when we say go out and touch grass, that's just going outside in your yard. Okay, that's fine. Go for a walk. The dog, do something. But if you go, it's called grounding. Did you just make that up? No.
B
It's like a crunchy Thing? Oh, you go out and you just like that's the first thing you're supposed to do in the morning is put your feet in the ground. Bare feet.
A
Well, and touch the term that I, I saw in this touch grass study.
B
Yeah.
A
Forest bathing. I don't hate it. I'm not making fun of it.
B
Wait, is that involved nudity?
A
No. You're just walking around in the woods.
B
Okay, good.
A
You're forest bathing. You know, you go look at birds. You're birding. So the arboretum. How would you say it? I don't want to say it. Say it.
B
No, you say it.
A
But are you going hard tea? The arboretum.
B
Sounds right. Mine is spelled. Sounds like it's spelled.
A
You go there,
B
there.
A
Because think about it. If you're on a bike trail or something, you're probably around a highway for me, you're around a highway, you're hearing the cars whizzing by. It's still better than nothing. Okay, but, but because we're so big and so concrete. Y. You go to that arboretum, you start walking in there, there. And all of that city noise does go away. The trees do.
B
You forget about it.
A
They block it. Yeah. And it's the only time in this city I've ever felt like, like a kid in the woods. And you're walking around and it. They do some cool special events, but all you got to do is just go and walk around.
B
Yeah. I get lost very easily.
A
I get lost in there. I don't know my sense of direction. I feel like I'm, I, I, I know deep down I'm bad. Bad. I know deep down I'm bad. I'm like, I'll, I'll look at you right now and I'll point to the building. I don't know where's the front of the building right now? I'll be like, oh yeah, the over here. You know, I'll point. I'll be talking about the Astrodome.
B
You're that bad.
A
Well, right. Okay. Point to the Astrodome.
B
Yeah, the Astrodome is that way.
A
I don't know that to me.
B
No, it's not. It's that way. If this is the front of the building, then yeah, Reliant and that way.
A
So yeah, I don't have that. I'm in this building. I don't know what way I'm facing or anything.
B
It's cuz we have no windows.
C
Gps. Bird.
A
I will get, I will get a little lost in there. But I'm telling you, it's awesome. There's just, there's not one study that says getting outside and touching grass or forest bathing or grounding or all of it. There's not one word says it's bad for you. It's all upside to getting outside a little bit. And. And the other thing that I saw in here, and that's what made me think of the arboretum. They say if you can get to a point where there's cognitive quiet.
B
What does that mean?
A
It means that it. Everything is shut out.
B
Okay.
A
And you're in the arboretum. Will. You can get to a spot. You don't have to get far. You can be five minutes into the arboretum, and all of a sudden you don't hear the highway anymore. You don't hear 6, 10. You don't hear any horns. You don't hear anything. All you do is hear birds and frogs croaking and all that stuff. You're into that quiet. And it. It raises your state of awareness. And they say your attention is effortlessly engaged. You walk around like this.
B
It's freaky.
A
Yeah. Touch grass. Greater life satisfaction. Get outside. The Rod Ryan show, built right here in Houston, Texas. Every morning on 94. 5 the bus 94. 5 the buzz good morning rod Ryan show.

C
I guarantee you there has not been.
A
There has not been one day that I haven't watched a US Men's Hockey gold medal highlight. I can almost tell you every second of where everybody is on the ice. I can tell you where everyone goes. I just got this email in. He's like, brother Rod, blah, blah, blah. It's Terry McBurney. You hear me talk about him all the time when I'm talking about the Republic Grill.

A
Yeah, it was badass. Yeah. He went to. To the greatest hockey game of all time.
B
Stop it right now.
A
It's his first hockey game.
B
I have so many questions.
A
I mean, that in the 1980. I mean, that's it. He went to like arguably one of the greatest, I mean, top two hockey games of all time. It was his first hockey game. That is unbelievable.
B
Are you a little jealous? Yeah, a lot jealous.
A
Yeah.
C
Remember when McDavid went to go cover Jack or Quinn and then he just passed it to Jack and Jack was like, whatever, let's just end it. Let's go home, boys.
A
Yeah, dude, let's go.
C
Let's go home, boys.
A
Quinn didn't even know it went in at first.
C
Dylan Larkin was also on the ice.
A
Yeah, no big deal. My first time ever going to a hockey game and that's what happened. Terry, that's awesome. Thank you for sharing. Houston's rockin alternative, the Rod ryan Morning Show.
B

B
Dark and drippy. That's so real.
A
That's a pretty good shot name. I'll take a dark and drippy. Mo, why don't you continue with Houston's headlines because I know you're talking weather.
B
Oh, yeah. Just in time. For end of year school parties and field days. And our long holiday weekend today officially kicks off stormy weather for our area. Heavy rain, lightning, high winds, hail, and we know, flooding this current storm complex that we're watching, still mostly offshore, looks like it's weakening this morning as it moves towards Houston. We still have a 40% chance for showers today into the early afternoon. If you do get to stay rain free today, 90 degrees, you could reach 90 more rain storms tonight through the overnight into tomorrow morning. And that rain lingers through the holiday.
A
Looks like the 8am hour is gonna be our worst hour here.
B
Like right here.
A
Like full on. Everyone's getting.
B
President Trump addressed the Africa Ebola outbreak, saying he's concerned. So he commented yesterday after an American tested positive for the virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It's a public health emergency, not a pandemic emergency. That American and six others were taken to Germany for observation. Currently over 300 suspected cases, 88 deaths in Africa. The TSA, they're funny on social media. I don't know if you follow them or not.
A
No, but you asked. I thought that was a weird question. You asked Alex if he followed TSA
B
because they're smart asses like he is. So I thought he would like it.
A
Okay.
B
They're challenging travelers right now to bring as many rotisserie chickens on a plane as you can.
A
How does this come about?
B
Well, you know how protein's like a trend everyone's trying to get their gains on?
A
Yeah, everybody's trying to get protein.
B
Yes. Well, you cannot take a protein shake larger than 3.4 ounces on a plane. As much as you argue with the TSA that that is necessary for your life, you can't do it. But the TSA does allow you to take, quote, as many rotisserie chickens as you can fit in your. Carry on.
A
So they were joking.
B
It was a joke. Yeah, but now people are taking that joke, people like Alex and actually bringing rotisserie chickens on planes, it is crazy.
A
You can only bring 3.4 ounces of a shake, but you can bring a damn protein or you can bring a damn rotisserie chicken.
B
Yeah, I've taken full meals through tsa.
A
Now you're going to have Alex loading protein shakes inside the chickens. He's going to be stuffing his chickens with protein shakes.
B
It's the liquid that is the problem. You cannot do it. You could brine your chicken with your protein shake, Alex. It's not the actual liquid.
A
Okay, so filled up in the plan.
B
There you go.
A
So TSA put Out some things that you can't. You can bring a watermelon.
B
Whole watermelon, right? Yep.
A
You can bring breast milk is the thing that comes up from time to time. They're not going to shoot you down on it. It does have to be frozen when you're bringing it.
B
Not necessarily, but.
A
Whoa.
B
What? I mean, I've done it.
A
And they let you through if you
B
have a baby with you.
A
Okay. Whole pies, cakes.
B
That always comes up around like the holidays when people are traveling.
A
You can bring a bowling ball if
B
you want to carry it.
A
Bowling pin, definitely. Why not? Okay, so rotisserie chickens are good.
B
Follow TSA on social media, Ron. They're gonna make you laugh, I swear. Shakira also in the headlines. First it was the whole World cup announcement stuff that she's got going on.
A
Yeah.
B
Then she was on the sidelines being super mom, cheering on her kids at their soccer game. They're like, oh, can you imagine if Shakira was your mom now? Today it's because she won her tax evasion case in Spain and she gets $70 million back from the government.
A
Good for her.
B
I agree. There's a whole thing. It's been going on for like eight years. Years where they claimed that she was living there, but they had to prove that she spent 183 days in Spain that year. That's the minimum requirement for residents to pay personal income taxes. They couldn't do it.
A
And I'm sure wherever she does live, she's paying a ton of taxes.
B
Yeah.
A
So she paid her fair share. They tried to get more out of her and they lost. That's a win for all of us.
B
Dollars.
A
Like Shakira is one of us.
B
I don't know about that.
A
Just take it on the government.
B
Oh, my goodness. Jack Osborne is active on a YouTube channel. Did a live stream recently answering some fan questions. I know everyone's waiting for the Ozzy and Sharon biopic. And he clarified a little bit. He said, I can tell you this, we're moving ahead. He's been on calls about it. The script is there. They are good. The movie is absolutely happening. But realistically, probably won't come out until 2028. Give you a better idea.
A
Yeah. I don't understand the movie industry, how long it takes to do these things. I guess you want to take your time, do it right. Do you have.
B
They don't even have a director yet.
A
This Michael movie is doing so good. It. It's now setting the bar back at number one. Yeah.
B
After this past weekend so no pressure. Jack Osborne.
A
It's setting the bar. You have to, like, do it right. Apparently, it's really, really good. Well, Michael was just so huge. So he's just gonna, the, the movie's gonna be big, just based on his life that he's so big. But apparently it's done.
B
Well, those are Houston's headlines.
A
Take it, Alex.
C
The Astros lost the twins last night six to three. They'll play them again this evening. Lance McCullers will be on the map. Destroyers going against Minnesota's Zebby Matthews. First pitches at 640. You can listen to it on our sister Station Sports Talk 790. In the NBA playoffs, the spurs got by the Thunder 122 to 115 in double overtime to take Game 1 of the Western Conference finals. And then in the Stanley cup playoffs, the Canadiens beat the Sabres 32 in overtime in game seven of the Eastern Conference semifinals. That is what's going on in sports.
A
James sends in an email. I just listening to you guys talking about watching the highlights from the gold medal hockey game. I went back and I watched them just now. It'd been a while, while by the end of it, I was laughing and crying all mixed into one beautiful emotion we call pride. Thank you for everything you guys do. Yeah, I, I, I find that if I'm ever not in a great mood, go back and watch that golden goal, it can put. I tell you what, put a smile on your face immediately. Rock and alternative for Houston.

The Rod ryan Morning Show. 6 to 10am, the Buzz 94.
A
5 the Buzz, Linkin park and lying from you. Good morning, Rod Ryan's show. Halfway part of the show, people. I'm gonna play the Shout it Out Loud game to get you some Blue October tickets, man. Thank you guys so much for rolling with us. It's that Blue October show. It's the third one. They sold out the 713 musical. They've just all but sold out Friday, Saturday is sold out, and they added Sunday. I don't know what the seating capacity is. I don't know if that's easily Googleable. 7,000. Is it 7,000 people at the 713. I felt like those two numbers kind of went together for a reason. So if it's 7, 14, 21, if they sell out three shows, that's 21,000 people that are gonna get to go see them.
B
They're claiming a capacity of 5,000 people.
A
It's a 713 musical.
B
Call the city of Houston.gov. yeah, says 713 Music. Hall is a concert venue with a capacity of 5,000 people.
A
Okay. So that still my numbers work. My numbers work. 5, 10, 15, 15,000 people. You put the stage. Because I, I, I've mentioned this several times and I love the 713 and I'm not, I'm not slagging that place at all.
B
The best.
A
But how great would it be for Blocktober were to play the Toyota Center? I experienced this in Buffalo when the Goo Goo Dows were up and coming. Okay. They were, they started out, they were a bar band. Same trajectory of what you'd see like with the Blue October. And I was there at the time when Name hit. And I think it's pre Iris, but when Name hit, Google Dolls were big. Obviously they were bigger in Buffalo than everywhere else. And they got to sell out where the Buffalo Sabers play, where they grew up going to hockey games and grow up going to see concerts themselves. And it was Goo Goo Doll Day in Buffalo.
B
Stop.
A
And I was there. I presented them with a key, with the radio. We were broadcasting live and doing all of that. And to see this the way that those guys felt and playing on that stage and selling out. They had played the stage before open opening, but they had never, they had never been the top show, you know, at the old auditorium where again, they grew up watching Sabers games, watching all that. All those guys in the Google Dolls, they all grew up there. I want to run this by Justin. They gotta feel great selling out 71 3. But what. Let's get them in the Toyota center and let's do it and let's, I mean, them selling out the Toyota center would be huge. How many events have those guys gone to? How many bands have they seen there? All of that. That's, that's why I said it kicked in as soon as we announced. When wizard called us on Friday and we announced that third show, I'm like, wait a minute. Now we're talking about. That's numbers one show. I think we could pack the Toyota center for a Blue October show next year. That's it. Just, I, I haven't talked to anybody about this. That it would be fun. It would be super fun. Just looked outside. It's rain.
B
Is it?
A
Yeah.
B
Thank you for looking. I feel like a kid peeking out the window.
A
Yeah.
B
Is it a snow day when you were a kid?
A
When I was a kid in school, yes. If it was, if it was raining, kids would go run to the window. But if it's the, if it snowed and you were in class ass Everybody would get up. You wouldn't even care what the teacher did. Whatever. You'd get up and you'd go run to the window, and the teacher would yell, get in your desk.
B
No.
A
So what are you doing? You've seen this a million times in your life. There was something about running to the window. I just did that outside. I went and got my coffee, and then I went. Let me look outside. So it's raining here. So dark and drippy here, too, in the galleria.
B
Thank you, Ms. Chris.
A
We're dealing with a lot of rain.
B
Be careful on the rust roads. We know what happens when it rains.
A
I see tornadoes going through the Midwest. That's your. That's your sinkhole tornadoes.
B
Yeah.
A
Did you have to deal with them growing up?
B
Yeah, growing up, we did the drills and stuff. But then most recently, my best friend
A
lost her house to a tornado.
B
Flattened while she was inside of it with her children.
A
Where?
B
So just like north of Dallas. It's ruined me. I'm completely. I cannot.
A
North of Dallas?
B
Yeah. She lives in a Dallas suburb. I can't even talk about it. Makes me want to puke.
A
No basement? Basement. No shelter or anything like that.
B
Like, they had other stairs in their pantry.
A
Right. Because in the Midwest, some of these places will have.
B
We had basements. Yeah. Or like a storm shelter. Yeah. We always had stuff in the Midwest.
A
But you kind of grew up with it, being aware.
B
Yeah, but we didn't think about it. It just happened all the time here. It's not supposed to happen like that.
A
It's so weird. You just hear about it in the Midwest, and it's just some sort of a perfect geographic area where it's flat and you got Canadian air and Gulf air hitting in the same area. You know, I can't even begin to explain it. It's just so weird that it happens in that tornado alley.
B
Yeah.
A
It's happening now, too. All right. So just know.
B
Don't worry. I'm keeping an eye on the radar. I'm sure you are at all times.
A
Just a little bit of rain. Just a little bit of rain that we're dealing with here. All right? Shout it. Shout it. Shout it out loud. Shine, chili, shine. Shout it. Shout it. Shout it out loud.
B
I don't know why that's what you hear. I don't hear Chili in that.
C

You hear me? Yes. I think what you're hearing is Chili.
B
I don't think so.
A
That's Chili saying chowder. Chowder. You hear me?
B

A
Think about Chili, okay? When I'm listening for him, I hear my big voice. All right, so maybe it's my big fat mouth, but it's Chili right next to me, right. Right underneath me. Chili. Awesome. We're gonna play the Shout it Out Loud game. Coming up for your chance to win those Buzz Blue October tickets, stay there. The Buzz rock and alternative for Houston.

Oh, I might not have it in front of me. You remember a minute made drink. It was called five alive.
B
No, no.
A
Maybe if you saw it, it might be. You guys might be too young. It went away quietly in like the mid-90s, but it was like an 80s drink and like Internet is literally looking for it.
B
Oh, I love that the Internet is
A
looking because I guess it's still available. In some countries, but I don't know. Go look up a picture of five Alive and see if you remember it. It's on the food blog page. People that have a lot of time on their hands trying to find discontinued juice products. We got rainbow. What do you got? Houston's headlines.
B
Rain just in time for a year. End parties, the field days, the long holiday weekend.
A
Oh, my God. It's gonna ruin the potato sack race.
B
It's happening outside right now, right?
A
Yeah.
B
So more than 40% chance.
A
It's 100% chance.
B
Moving into the early afternoon, too. If you do happen to stay rain free during the day today, we could reach 90 degrees. More rain and storms tonight into the overnight and into tomorrow morning. And then that rain is lingering through our holiday weekend.
C
I was.
A
Look at my fingers. I was this close to washing my car this weekend.
B
Oh, no.
A
And I. Maybe Mo. Let me see if Mo's predicting rain. And I saw that you predicted it.
B
So enough.
A
I didn't waste the money. I'm glad I wash my car. Thank you.
B
President Trump says an attack planned for today on Iran has been called off. Oh, yeah. He posted on social media yesterday that the US Is holding off on military strikes against Iran that were planned for today. The hold order was given after Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates asked him to stand down because serious negotiations are now taking place. That's what they said.
A
Are they, though?
B
I don't know. I'm just telling you what they said.
A
Okay.
B
Trump also said that he asked the Pentagon to prepare for a full large scale assault of Iran on a moment's notice.
A
Okay, that's not good.
B
We missed National Pizza Party day on Friday. Rod, come on.
A
I love a pizza party.
B
Same, but after the party. We can now report that Pizza Hut is still America's favorite pizza chain. In the survey, the majority picked the Hut as their preferred place for a mass order. So you're having a party, you're having people over, you got to order a lot of pies. Pizza Hut is the place. Domino's came in second. Papa John's in third. To be fair, the most people chose a local or regional brand.
A
You go.
B
But we know that those get a little bit pricey. Japanese officials say two Americans were arrested after breaking in to Punch the monkey's enclosure at his zoo outside of Tokyo over the weekend. It was a social media post and the zoo said there was an intruder in the enclosure and the pair of Americans were arrested. We all remember when Punch and his stuffed monkey toy became famous.
A
Wasn't it An IKEA toy.
B
Yeah.
A
Did they ever get him back in stock? I never heard much about the. I don't know, the monkey that he
B
was dragging around a while they were out of stock, and then IKEA took a whole bunch to Tokyo. These Americans, one of them was in, like, a costume, it appears, and the other one was video recording. Okay, so some sort of viral thing they were trying to make happen.
A
Several people suggested punch monkey as the shot drink. Yeah. Sean Special at Ditch Day.
B
No way. Those people were our listeners that were in the enclosure. Right.
A
Anybody feeling that, though?
C
Punch monkey sounds like a cool drink.
B
It does sound like a cool drink.
C
I don't know.
A
You guys don't seem too excited about it. What else?
B
We are the Fallen. The band.
A
Yeah.
B
Could be coming back.
A
Not many people know this band, but Ben Moody was an original guy in Evanescence.
B
Yeah.
A
And him and Amy just didn't see
B
eye to eye, so we found someone else.
A
Yeah.
B
Carly. Is that Carly?
A
I think that's who's singing. I don't know.
B
Okay, so him and Carly apparently have recorded some stuff together. Their basis is touring with Daughtry, so they can't get him back right now, but they are saying they are together and there is potential. But those are Houston's headlines.
A
Go ahead, Alex.
C
The Astros lost the twins last night six to three. They're gonna play the Twins again again tonight. Lance McCullers will be on the mound for the Stroz, going up against Minnesota's Zebby Matthews. First pitches at 6:40, and you can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk790. In the NBA playoffs, the spurs got by the Thunder 122 to 115 in double overtime to take Game 1 of the Western Conference finals. And in the Stanley cup playoffs, the Canadiens beat the Sabres 32 in overtime in game seven of the Eastern Conference semifinals. That is what's going on on esports.

the Rod ryan Morning Show. 94. Five the buzz.
A
Here we go. 94. Five the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan Show. Blink 182. What's my age again? Welcome to the nine spot, 903. Thank you, guys for rolling with us on this TattoosDay. Crystal said Five Alive was her favorite. It was your favorite drink. Yeah. Look at it, bro. Quick, just to see if it. Like, maybe just seeing it. It's like a blue. It was in a carton. Yeah. And it wasn't orange juice. It was an orange drink type of thing. And then I think they came in with some other flavors and stuff.
B
There's different colors.
A
Yeah. Doesn't ring a bell at all.
B
No.
A
Okay, so social media is trying to figure out why Minute Maid got rid of five Alive. It was discontinued for what I can see. It was discontinued in the mid-90s. They may be still making it up in Canada. So I don't know if Canadians are still drinking it for some reason. Like, I think that's what's got people. They've seen it elsewhere.
B
Why can't fancy.
A
Why can't we have it here? So on the food blog page today, you can go see some of those stories. Is it in Canada?
B
Yeah. Beloved and active staple in Canada.
A
Coca Cola. Left Minimade. Coca Cola.
B
Yeah.
A
So if it's good enough for them, why can't we have it here? I never had it that. Sunny D. We didn't have that stuff in my house.
B
Sunny D. We got on field trip days.
A
I had like one Capri sun when I was a kid.
B
Yeah.
A
But they had just come out. I'm like, can we get that? What is that? Astronaut drinks?
B
What is it?
A
What is that? Silver powder. Ouch. Can we have that?
B
Yeah, only on special occasions.
A
Okay. So I can tell you exactly what I got for field trips.
B
Yeah. Cuz you had to pack a lunch. Otherwise. We ate at school and.
A
And soda was forbidden.

But kids would bring pops wrapped in tinfoil to school.
B
Yes.

For a field days.

Yes.
A
You know, if you were going off campus, you know, we at. It was called a little hug.

Okay.
A

A
It was a little barrel.
B
Aluminum on top, a little circle.
A
Yeah.
B
You had hugs and you got like.
A
And you got 10 of them for like 50 cents.
B
Yes. And they're basically sugar water.
A

B
Yeah.
A
I bet you we're not allowed to have those. No, no.
B
Field trip days.
A
Field trip days. Yes.
B
We had to pack our lunch.
A
It had to be the. Whatever the cheapest thing was, you know, that and a government cheese sandwich. That's what I took for lunch for field trips.
B
Yeah. We wanted lunchables.
A
Oh, yeah. No, I never even had. I never had one in adult life. I bought. I bought one for London before I
B
had one at the airport on Sunday.
A
A Lunchable.
B
Yeah. It was awesome.
A
Grow up, Peter Pan.
B
It was the cheapest thing. I was like,
A
slice of pieces of
B
ham in A little turkey circles.
A
Little.
B
Yeah. It was so great. And it had the big word protein on it. I was like, oh, Alex hates this.
A
Alex used to eat the ones. They were in the shape of a barbell. There would be cheese and nuts. It was like some kind of a protein thing. Right?
B
What was it?
A
It was unlunchable for an adult.
C
Yeah, it was easy to eat.
A
Is it. Was it in the shape of a barbell? A dumbbell?
C
No, it's just like those three little.
A
Was it in the shape of an eye?
B
Oh, I know you're talking about.
A
Was it the letter? I think then it looked like a. It looked like a. A dumbbell.
B
That's funny.
C
No, I think it was just like a straight.
A
I thought they were trying to market it cuz it was pro because I know it was protein forward for sure.
C
Three or whatever it was called.
A
It was just a rectangle.
C
Yeah, little rectangle had three little containers in it. It was like.
A
Oh, I thought it like. I thought it was bigger on the ends like the letter I or something like that. Okay, all right. Well that's what they're doing on the Internet. People have time to look for these things. Chat GT Chat Chat GPT announced that select users are now going to be able to connect their financial accounts.
C
Oh good.
B
I saw this on the national news.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now I'm not lying. I have Chat GPT over here that I look at. I don't pay for anything but I've used Grok. I'm still, I'm still in the phase of AI where it's like a super duper search engine for me. I'm not using it for my job all that much. It helps out some of the games that we play. I have gone to it and I've kind of run some things through there. Other than that, I can't imagine going on Chat GPT and loading in all my financials. I don't. I'm not trust. I mean I'm Alex on that. Like no way. I was late to online banking. Yeah, I was late. I wasn't the first. I wasn't even. I wasn't even in the mid pack.
B
You use Venmo. Yeah, yeah.
A
And I use it all now.
B
And you have your credit card like saved in like your Uber. Yeah, yeah.
A
I mean, okay.
B
I'm just trying to test like put
A
it this way, put it this way. Mother's Day rolled around. I just went to the website. Bubble bubble bump it auto generated everything I needed.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
So it's. I'm loose as a goose right now.
B
Fair, but you're not going to give it to AI.
A
But Chat GPT announced that select users will now be able to connect their accounts to more than 12,000 financial institutions. And you'll be able to view like a financial dashboard of your activities and ask for advice. I guess, I mean, is it picking stocks for you? I mean, this is where I'm, I'm ignorant on some of the things I
B
saw, like investment opportunities, things you might not be taking advantage of. People were asking advice for that.
A
So eventually it's going to be made available to all users. They Chat GPT has not invited me. I, I don't think I'm a guy that they want on there.
B
I don't think I've got another early adapt.
A
I don't think I got the financials they're looking for, you know, like, like what, what's Grok gonna learn from my financials? Okay. How not to do things. That's the idiot that bought a bar lost his ass. I don't think they want me on there. I just, that's scary to me. But online banking was scary to me. I remember I wanted, when I was young and I had my own bank account, we started real, real young with that stuff and thank my mom for that. She would not let us get an atm.
B
No.
A
A card.
B
A card.
A
No, she would not. She didn't want it that she, we didn't want us to have that kind of access. She forced us to save money. When we were little kids, we had Christmas club, all that stuff, bank books, everything, which I don't have for my kid. I, I, by the time I was London's age, I had a bank book.
B
Yeah, same. And, and we got like prizes for putting money in the bank.
A
You could see the money. You had to, you know, manually write it in there and you could see it. You'd have to do that, the math, you have to balance your, you have to balance your checkbook thing. Well, not a checkbook. You had to balance your bank book.
B
Yeah.
A
And you had to keep track of it. Then they would, they would, you'd hand it over, you'd put something, they'd put the interest on there for you, and you can see it grow. It's like, oh, my God, I made 13 cents.
B
That's how you learn.
A
Holy crap. 13 cents. 13 cents came out of nowhere. It's in my account now. It's awesome. Good job, Mom.
B
Thanks.

A
So you guys feel like we are on the.

I'm not feeling it.
B
What?
A
I'm not. I mean, and I.
B

That's on there.
B
Yeah.
A
Everybody's in drinking the spirit. Sites and stories of America through the lens of one of television's most beloved shows. You guys are telling me that you're seeing everything geared.
C
All I see is American all the time, buddy.
B
I just want to buy it all, too. Like, I'm really struggling. I keep getting packages in the mail of stuff I bought.
A
I'm like, oh, that's what I did.
B
We're gonna be dressing the entire month of July in red, white, and blue.
A
That's. I got some stuff on order. Patriot.

I have a few things on order. Yeah. I got. God, American flag, paper plates coming in, getting ready for the weekend. All of that I'm like, I am. I'm eating off of an American flag paper plate from. From memorial day till 4th of July.
B

A
I want hot dogs every day.
B
Same.
A
I feel like I'm the only one. I'm glad.
B
Wait, wait, wait.
A
I'm glad. I'm talking about. We don't talk about things like before we go on the air. So I threw it out there and I.
B
You have us.
A
I'm shocked that you guys are feeling it. I wish I was like, I see
C
it all over the place.
A
I felt like I was the only one that was like, amped. I'm amped.
B
I accidentally went inside a store yesterday. I had to go to Walmart.
A
Whoa. What are you doing in a store?
B
I know, I know. I made a return. Every end cap is something red, white and blue.
A
Like I almost bought a bald eagle the other day.
B
There's just like. Just has everything you want, but they're making it red, white and blue.
C
Yeah, it's pretty sick, Rod.
B
Okay, maybe just go in the Walmart.
A
Yeah, I'm not really jagged up. I'm not really going into stores.
B
You need to.
A
But I did, you know, I got
C
out of American Eagle.
A
I got it at. I got out at home for.
B
How much did you spend?
A
250.
B
That's pretty good.
A
And I've already got three bins of Fourth of July crap. That's the most. And I hadn't pulled it out in a couple years. I like the decorating is. I like it just. It's tearing it down. Down. It's tearing it down. And being the one that has to do it.
C
When it's America, you don't ever have to tear it down. That's the beauty.
A
Well, this is a very long time. I normally don't go full on for memorial, but because of 250, then all of like memorial to 4th of July, the. The decorations can stay.
B
So you've got it.
A
So I'm excited.
B
You've got it.
A
I'm excited. You're not. Just. All right, guys, I'm jacked up, ready to go.
B
Wheel of Fortune.
A
Yeah, I know. Wheel of Fortune got me jacked for America. I want to say last year is when we saw the very first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6. I cannot believe how early they put out this stuff. Oh, I can. To get people excited. Yeah.
C
I mean, it's been over a decade, decade since the last one came out. They know it's one of the biggest selling games of all time. They know that it rocks and they know it's gonna be sick. So why not tease us with whatever you got? I think we need a week off of work when that game comes out, because I would like to play it.
A
And, like, I'm a music guy, okay? Tom Petty, he is so important in the musical canon of American music. Music. Okay, I didn't know this song.
C
Oh, really?
A
I did not know this song. And the guy that chose this for the trailer, it's genius. It works so well. Give me that intro again. Did you know this song?
C
I heard it before.
A
I mean, I must have heard it, but it just. It came out of nowhere. Being in Tom Petty's got that catalog where you. Oh, yeah, yeah.
C
This one.
B
One.
A
Yeah, he does. There was an email sent to creators. Best Buy sent it out last week suggesting that pre orders. Now, don't get too excited. I gotta be careful how I talk. Because we don't call you out. We don't get a lot of video game talk on this show. And Alex is. I know how it. I know how big this is. Best Buy sent out an email to creators suggesting that the pre orders would start this week. Later, boom, give me that email back. Whatever they do to resend me, okay, they got it wrong. So now there's some sort of a delay. Now it's got people that are in the know freaking out, and they said, listen, you guys got to get your act together. When is the pre sale? We need to know these things. You cannot get this one wrong. This is billions. Okay? What they're talking about with this. With this video game coming out. So now rumors are. Is there a delay? That, of course, would be a PR nightmare for what Rockstar who makes the games? And it's so close to the release date, still set for a November 19th release. Now there are leaks out there suggesting up to six different editions of the game, all with various various price tiers, downloads, features. I. I can't talk anymore. Other than what they're telling me, speculation is that the base version of the game is going to run between 60 and $80. Does that sound right to you?
C
I'm shocked it's not higher.
A
Base version.
C
Oh, yeah. So that's. Yeah, that's accurate.
A
So if you want to, like, beat up the hooker with a golf club, you're gonna have to pay more, maybe. No, I think it'll be.
C
You'll get like, other.
A
Is that this one doing stuff? Okay, well, you can.
C
All the games are kind of that way.
A
All right. So apparently they're trying to clean up this email that went out so no release. No early release yet. But they're looking to send something out very, very soon for you guys. It's the buzz. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rob Ryan. Shout out. Thank you all, American Rejects and Dirty Little Secret Rod Ryan showing this Tattoosday. Not a dude. Julie says, Rod, I was 12 in 1976. The bicentennial was really hyped back then, and I, too, am not seeing it for the 250 years like I did for the 200 years I was seven. And I feel like it was everywhere. I was six. I was six.
B
Live radio, math.
A
Yeah, I was six years old when the 200 years. I felt like it was everywhere. Maybe I'm just not leaving the house enough.
B
You got to get out.
A
I got to get. I've been watching too much tv. I've been watching too much hockey. I'm not going out enough. Yeah, you guys are right. People are saying, right, you go here. There's an end cap app here. Everything's American flags. 250.

A
We're gonna set you up. We have time. Stop putting protein in every day. Stop putting protein in every day. Stop putting protein in everything. Just let a brownie be a brownie. Does a pancake really need protein? Does a Pop Tart really need frozen protein? Do potato chips really need protein? Just catch a protein from chicken. Amazing. I giggle every single time cuz there's a little funny video. It's just a bunch of guys on YouTube that do the song and it's like they're kicking the Kodiak Bear pancake mix and then Pop Tart. Everything is protein now.
B
Yeah.
A
And I. If you see me me stuff in my fat face at 7 o' clock in the morning. If you see me eating chips or a bar or something. It's a protein bar. Yeah, Protein bar. Is that you put it. All right. The TSA story is on links and guests. People were complaining why they can't bring their protein shakes through. TSA's just said in a joking way, bring rotisserie chickens. Technically, it's allowed. All right, dj, what the hell?
B
I almost forgot about it.
A
Was I standing here this morning and this guy dj, who's had no success at all on the Fresh out of Bed Head to Head beat the greatest player of all time. That's what happened, right?
B
Yes.
A
That's why you play the game. That's why you play the game. Herm Edwards, a guy with no wins, took out a 13 time hall of Famer and a two time world champion. Josh the Goat said, See in 30 days took it like a man. Okay? That's how a man loses. Okay, man lessons. This morning in homeroom, You said Jeremiah's going to join Hal and I at the Triumph show.
