Rod Ryan
Here we come. Here we come. Come on. Good morning, this is Ed McMahon. And now, ladies and gentlemen, here's Ron Ryan. Okay, wakey wakey eggs and B. Rod Ryan show. Check it in on this wild card Wednesday. What do we got planned for you today? Well, well, well. I did a little planning for you today. I scheduled Sammy Baker Davis Jr. To come out with us at around 620. He's a three time hall of famer. I think he's going for win number four, fresh out of bed, head to head challenge. You can take him on if you're looking to get in to see five finger death punch. I went to go see them last time they came to town. Unbelievable show. I mean unbel. Unbelievable how great this band is live. I've got tickets for you in homeroom on the fun fact flashback. I didn't run this through Alex yesterday, but we're gonna. I. I'd like to play the five. Notice I didn't say we're going to play. I'd like to play the five game at 7:20 this morning. Like to put that in there. At 7:20 you let me know if we're good.
Alex
I thought you were gonna say torture 10.
Rod Ryan
No, no, no, no. I don't, I don't. I definitely gotta get pre approval. Okay, sure.
Mo
Feeling good.
Rod Ryan
That will not. I will never spring that one on you again. The five game looks like we are going to play at 720 for Black Crows tickets. Motley Crue tickets at 8. 20, pit tickets to Godsmack at 9. 10 baby metal hailstorm tickets on Mow the Show. Rain today, rain last night. So weather and elections yesterday. Mo election. What you got in Houston's headlines? Any surprises for you?
Mo
I don't know. I guess I didn't know what was going to happen. We found out that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton won the Republican Senate primary runoff. He unseated four term incumbent Senator John Cornyn, the most expensive Senate primary in U.S. history.
Rod Ryan
The commercials were. I mean, we talked about it a lot. The commercials, the robocalls, they're everywhere. The texts. It was insane.
Mo
Trump endorsed Paxton just last week, calling him loyal and saying Cornyn had not been supportive when times were tough. Then Republicans had invested millions of dollars to try and protect Cornyn, fearing the seat would be harder to defend in the November elections.
Rod Ryan
Against Talarico, the fight was Chip Roy Maga Middleton.
Mo
There's a lot of that.
Rod Ryan
Who won? Maga Middleton.
Mo
Middleton won. Congrats to your uncle.
Alex
Congrats.
Mo
And also in a separate Texas runoff, 37 year old Democratic Rep. Christian Menifee, who's got the best commercials Also it was, I don't know, upset. Defeated longtime Democratic Republican Al Green for the primary for Texas 18th congressional district. A lot of controversy over there with the redistricting and all of that stuff. So.
Alex
All right.
Mo
Did you lose power at all overnight, Rod?
Rod Ryan
Not overnight. Yesterday, yeah. Centerpoint was doing some work.
Mo
Yeah. They reported thousands of customers without electricity across the area. Thunderstorms moving through. That's going to kind of be our Wednesday. The first line of storms that rocked us overnight is moving east and now it's looking like there might be a second round of storms like between 9 and 11 this morning. And that line not as strong when the winds come through, but the rain totals are going to be up because of that bad boy. Did you know the fastest growing city in America is Charlotte, North Carolina?
Rod Ryan
I didn't know that.
Mo
I had no idea. A new report says that Charlotte is barreling towards a population of 1 million. And their common phrase now is we're full. I think we kind of get that
Alex
motor speedway getting all people going there.
Mo
You think that's it? This new population Toll says that Houston's number five in growing. We added over 11, 000 folks last year.
Rod Ryan
Okay. Texas is all over this list. People are still coming to Texas. Fort Worth.
Mo
Yes. Number two on the list right under Charlotte.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
Pics and videos show workers in the beginning stages of assembling a UFC Octagon at the White House South Lawn. Started yesterday.
Rod Ryan
I'm. It looks cool.
Mo
Yes, it looks.
Rod Ryan
Sorry, not sorry.
Mo
It's visible from the roof line of the West Wing. I didn't know the event is planned for June 14, Flag Day, Rod, because
Rod Ryan
we were casually talking about it and we thought that it was a Fourth of July show.
Mo
It is part of the America's 250 anniversary celebrations, but five fights, bouts, if you will. Trump said admission is free. 4,000 seats on the south lawn. Up to 100,000 fans expected to watch on large screens. And then also in music news, Rivers Cuomo of weezer quietly uploaded 16 acoustic solo cover recordings to his YouTube channel over the weekend and fans are wondering if it was an accident or if everything's okay. Yeah, there's a bunch of demos. They were recorded between like 2018 and 2021. Him doing like random acoustic. Michael Jackson.
Rod Ryan
Sorry.
Mo
Oh, Jolene, your beauty is beyond compare
Rod Ryan
with flaming locks of auburn hair with ivory skin and eyes ephemeral.
Mo
So they're not full covers. Most of them are like a minute, 90 seconds long. But he hasn't commented on whether he uploaded them deliberately or accidentally.
Alex
He wouldn't just deliberately upload 16.
Mo
16 at once is. Yeah, doesn't seem.
Rod Ryan
I don't know.
Mo
Alex is weird.
Rod Ryan
Listen to this one. What's the song?
Mo
Whitney Houston.
Rod Ryan
Here it comes. It's just him riffing and playing covers and they were all uploaded yesterday.
Alex
Sounds like a guy just jamming, right?
Mo
I don't know. Those are Houston Fed lines.
Alex
Take it, Alex. Astros lost to the Rangers last night, 10 7. They'll play them again tonight. Mike Burrows is going to be on the mound for the Stroz. Going up against the Rangers, Jacob deGrom first pitched at 7:05. You can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk 790. In the NBA playoffs, the Thunder beat the Spurs 127 and 114 to take a 32 lead in the Western Conference finals. Over in the Stanley cup playoffs, the Vegas Golden Knights are headed to the Stanley cup finals. They got by the Avalanche 2 to 1 to sweep the Western Conference finals. Tonight. The Canadians are going to host the Hurricanes for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals. That's going to start at 7 and you can watch it on TNT. That is what's going on in sports.
Rod Ryan

I got the green light. It looks. I feel like I got the green light. Can we play the five game at seven? 20?
Alex
Yeah. Another 10. When you tell me five seconds before
Rod Ryan
I had to go scramble to find 10. Quality drop.
Mo
Why angry Alex made me so happy?
Rod Ryan
I don't know. Because it's. Because it's not directed at you. Make sure I can do my job right. And when you're like, hey, 13 seconds from now.
Alex
I need 10 really good drops.
Rod Ryan
I gotta go dig for you.
Mo
Would never.
Rod Ryan
I would never happen a handful of times. Three time hall of Famer Sammy Baker Davis Jr's gonna be out with us in just a little bit. Can you beat this guy? Shelly, put Poppy tickets in there. A lot of phone lines ringing. People want to talk.
Mo
It's now time for phone call of the day.
Rod Ryan
All right. Looks like Jason got through. Jason. Hey, good brother Rod. Good morning, Mo. Good morning, Alex. Good morning, Chile.
Mo
Morning.
Rod Ryan
Good morning. Good morning, Jason. What say you? You got the first phone call today. Well, first of all, let's start off with the public service announcement. Those of y' all that think that it's okay to put your hazard lights on, we get it. I'm not doing this all morning. I'm not doing this all morning again. We've done this bit. All right.
Mo
Oh, my gosh. I love it.
Rod Ryan
Like, Mo is not. Mo is opposed to the hazard lights. It is not illegal.
Mo
It should be.
Rod Ryan
They do not teach that in driver's ed.
Mo
They do not.
Rod Ryan
Okay? Now, somebody said, well, in Mexico, that's how they teach you to drive in the Rain, dude, I'm telling you. God damn. Now there goes my emails all day. But that's all the emails I'm going to get is about hazard lights in the rain.
Mo
Bless you.
Rod Ryan
Thank you, Jason. Podcast.
Alex
This is the first thing they'll hear too.
Rod Ryan
Immediately go to emailing you. All right. Anything else, Jason, or is it just the hazard lights? I'm just so glad to I could get in. I've been trying for 10 years to get in for fresh out of bed head to head. But Chili don't ever answer. Well, I'm not blame Chili. He got you on to talk hazard lights. Now it's like that's it. That's the only email I'm going to get today is about hazard lights. Thank you, Jason. It was just raining last week and the whole show got derailed by should you have your hazard lights on when you're driving? And the people that defend themselves with it, they say, don't worry, we are in the far right lane. No, you're not. And we're driving slower and we turn them off if we need to use our directional. They're saying they're doing all these things. That's what they're saying.
Alex
They're saying, not truths.
Rod Ryan
All right, on the flip of this break. Oh, my God. Hazard lights. Not again. I'm not doing this the whole show. I'm done on the flip. Got a rec check for you. We'll find out what's trending and then we'll get set up for our game.

Kind of cool. So, yeah, I got busy. I didn't talk about it. Brandon, how are you? I'm doing good, sir.
Alex
How are you?

Brandon and Sammy, question number one. H. All right, I'm. This question's been on here for a while. Where is Big Ben inside the clock tower? Look, Sam. Paris. Paris. Big Ben Paris. No, Brandon, here's the complete question and then I'm going to explain. I know where you're going. Where is Big Ben inside the clock tower located. Brandon, where's big ben?
Alex
Uk.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, I gotta give that to you. Yeah, technically it is. It's in London, guys.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And then the reason that she wrote it that way is where is Big Ben inside the clock tower located? So that whole thing is called the clock tower. Big Ben is only the bell. The bell, but everybody calls that clock Big Ben. Where are you getting these questions from?
Mo
Someone sent in, where is Big Ben? And I was like, well, you actually have to say all of this, unfortunately.
Rod Ryan
London, England. Westminster. Brandon, House of Parliament.
Mo
You could have said all those things.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, uk. We took it. Brandon, you're on the board. Sammy, Paris Eiffel Tower. It's in Paris.
Mo
It's over there somewhere.
Rod Ryan
I don't know. One of those structures across the pond.
Mo
Exactly.
Rod Ryan
All right, let's get back over here. What war was fought between the north and south in the. You, Sammy. Civil War. The Civil War. Now that was an American question.
Alex
His most favorite war.
Rod Ryan
Very American question. It's the worst war. Sammy on the board. Brandon on the board. So we got a game.
Mo
One to one.
Rod Ryan
We got a really good game here. I think this is a tough question. Oh, it's early.
Mo
Which one is it?
Rod Ryan
This one. Okay, Sammy, Brandon, name one of Michael Jackson's sisters. Friend Sam. Janet was not hard. That was not hard. No.
Mo
If I would have said name three, that would have been hard.
Rod Ryan
Okay, Alex, name one of Michael Jackson's sisters that's not Janet. You got this, Latoya.
Mo
Yeah. Those are the only two. I knew.
Rod Ryan
There's a Reby.
Mo
Yeah, I didn't.
Rod Ryan
I think there's a Re. Not Reba. Yeah, Reba is Jackson.
Mo
Tell the World.
Rod Ryan
All right, Brandon, good to have you on. Dude, we got to. Goodbye. We'll see you on next time. Yeah. You had a chance. You had a chance. Sammy, let's go. All right. All right. I. What do I always say? You're allowed one of those and you got clean. You got to clean it up the next couple of days, cuz that was. That was win number four. Yes, sir. Tomorrow you go for five. You got to have your best game tomorrow and then you do, then you get back into the hall of Fame. Yeah. You can join us now. The rest of the week, bro. All right. Not your best game, but coming away with a victory and some tickets. Houston mornings don't play nice, but we do the Rod ryan show on 94. 5 the buzz. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning. Rod Ryan show. Fresh out of bed, head to head. Not Sammy's best game. John. Other John who keeps these stats. He says Brandon has played six games in his career, all against either Fresh Fish or multi time hall of Famers. Todd three times against Fresh Fish and three losses against multi time hall of Famers. The real email is from Brandon, not
Mo
the one that played the game.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, he does sign it. Brandon, not the one who played today. He says, I love Mo. I swear I do. But that damn Big Ben question pissed me off. Said, happy Wednesday.
Mo
Send in questions anytime. I love to hear from you.
Rod Ryan
It worded properly. It was just because if I don't
Mo
word it properly, then I get a million emails from a bunch of pissers.
Rod Ryan
So again, Big Ben is the name of the bell.
Mo
Yep.
Rod Ryan
Not the clock tower. That's the name of the clock. The clock tower. Big Ben is just the bell.
Mo
I didn't know that.
Rod Ryan
Everybody calls that damn thing Big Ben.
Mo
Same
Rod Ryan
great Sammy. The fresh out of bed, head to head challenge. Here's your current champion. Okay, I'm rolling. Good morning, everybody. Sammy Baker Davis Jr. And I am your fresh out of bed, head to head four day champion. Not the best game in my career, but a win's a win. Join me on Throwback Thursday when I get back in the hall of Fame. Do I only have to give you two fun facts today? Did we already cover a fun fact? The Big Ben thing?
Mo
I don't know.
Rod Ryan
I still brought in some new ones. It's the fun fact of the day. We make you look smart in front of your buddies. It's the fun fact of the day. Wonder if Mo knows this.
Mo
Oh, geez.
Rod Ryan
Larry Lass sent this in. Larry Lass. The rear view mirror was used for the first time at the Indianapolis 500.
Mo
I did not know that.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. So the rear view mirror made its debut at the inaugural Indianapolis 500 in 1911 by driver Ray Haroun.
Alex
Who could forget?
Mo
I definitely went to that museum a lot growing up.
Rod Ryan
So when he used the rear view mirror, it eliminated the second driver that had to be in the car. Back then. Yeah, there was a mechanic driver. It saved weight, and he did end up winning the race because he had a rear view mirror. His car was lighter. So, yeah, the early race cars carried two people, and the mechanic's job was to look behind the car and alert the driver of anybody that was ready to overtake them. Just put a mirror in there, and that was it.
Mo
Now a bad Indianian, Larry, if you will. Thank you, Larry.
Rod Ryan
I mean, I should be one and done.
Mo
You're so good today.
Rod Ryan
Oh, music. The people that wrote this song. The 1974 hit Take Me to the river, was covered here by the Talking Heads, Covered by many artists.
Alex
And big mouth Billy Bass.
Rod Ryan
Well, you know where I'm going. Okay. Take me to the river. The songwriters earned more royalties from the use of the song by the novelty toy big mouth Billy Bass than from any other artist that covered the track. That is fun. And the Talking Heads had a hit with that.
Mo
You're gonna roll today, Ross.
Rod Ryan
All right.
Mo
Down with this last one.
Rod Ryan
Okay. Geez. A lot of pressure.
Mo
A lot.
Rod Ryan
All right. There's only been one time on Wheel of Fortune where the answer to a puzzle was Wheel of Fortune. That's neat. I'll tell you what. Pat Sajak was really, really good. It is really good at his job. Right? He was. He doesn't host it anymore. April 2, 2001, after it was solved, Pat Sajak in Pat Sajak form said, we have officially run out of puzzles. Apparently, it's the fuzzy back to the day we make you look smart in front of your buddies. It's the fun fact of the day. Seacrest would never say something clever like that guy's never, never made a joke in his life. Oh, geez. I'm not saying he's not the hardest working guy.
Mo
Correct.
Rod Ryan
I'm not saying he's not good at what he's done. He's just never said a funny thing in his life ever. It's incredible. All right. What do you give it away?
Mo
I have a pair of tickets to Five Finger Death Punch. They're gonna be with Cody Jinx September 27th in the Woodlands. Ticketmaster.com or if you know this flashback.
Rod Ryan
All right. It's your five back Flash hat. I'm not saying I have, but I try. At least I try. Who invented the button down shirt collar in 1900? 713-212-5945. It's now time for rock out with your stockout with Captain K Cash. Well, I don't even know if he attempted to get on the roads. Maybe he heard your wreck check and said, I'm gonna stay in. Hey. Hallo, brother Rod. Did you know there was a major wreck at Bunker Hill? Well, yes. We were even wondering how you were gonna make it in because I don't think you can get through that way right now. Well, it's all. It's all cleared up, but it's really bad over there. Oh, did you turn around and went home? Go home or are you out there? I pulled over. I'm on my way to the office.
Mo
Be safe out there.
Rod Ryan
See, the guy even attempted to come in today.
Mo
He's the best.
Rod Ryan
How'd we do on Wall street yesterday? It was a mixed day on Wall Street. The dow was down 118 points. Kickoff this morning at 50,004. 61. Nasdaq up 312 to 26,006. 56. Benchmart in your treasury trades at 4.47% and oil is down to $90.33 a barrel to the most actives, the big studs. Caterpillar, Honeywell and 3M. The Big Duds. Chevron, UnitedHealth and Merck. The economic calendar this morning, it's all clear, but futures looking good. They're on the upside. Hang on to this. The Apostle opening right here on Wall Street. That's it. I'm out here. This is how Lin Manes, director with Ramy James, reported for the Rod Ryan show from Rami James on San Felipe and Augusta. And don't forget to always rock out with your stock out.

Rod Ryan
Racing thoughts broadcasting from your brain.
Mo
You think you live in a pretty safe place. Place. But you just heard about a break in four miles away. Which isn't close, but it isn't far either. You know Art Palpitations is on the scene.
Rod Ryan
I sure am, Tammy. And I don't even know why I drove out here because as you know, you got customized renters insurance through Geico, so your stuff is covered. Oh, well that's great.
Mo
Any sign of crime there, Art?
Rod Ryan
Just some light littering, Tammy. But like they say, a little litter can lead to a lot.
Mo
Wise words. It feels good to worry less. It feels good to Geico.
Alex

Rod Ryan
5 the buzz good morning. Rod Ryan show everybody. Please be careful out there on the roads. It's nasty and it's of. It's going to be raining like I think the whole time that we're on the air together this morning. All right, who's on the phone here? Good morning.
Mo
Good morning.
Rod Ryan
Hello? Who's this?
Mo
This is Chrissy. Hi Chrissy.
Rod Ryan
Are you on the roads?
Mo
I am.
Rod Ryan
Be careful. Where are you driving in Friendswood? Is it nasty there?
Mo
It's raining. It's not too bad.
Rod Ryan
Okay. Okay. Wait a minute. Is it Chrissy? Yes. Does this count? Alex?
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Chrissy, wake up. I don't like this. Chrissy, wake up. Hey. Hello. Doctor, wake up. Doctor, wake up. Can you hear me? Wake up.
Mo
Chrissy.
Rod Ryan
I don't like this. Chrissy, wake up. I always forget about that.
Mo
Good morning, Chrissy. You should call.
Rod Ryan
Chrissy, Please call every day.
Mo
I should. Hi.
Rod Ryan
Who invented the button down shirt collar in 1900?
Mo
Brooks Brothers.
Rod Ryan
Oh, you're so smart too. I hope my husband's listening. You have chosen the Rod Ryan show as your morning radio show. And your wicked smart. Hook her up, please. Brook. The Smokes Brothers was correct.
Mo
Five Finger Death Punch. Cody Jinx. You giving these to your husband? Is he excited about this? Oh, my God, yes. Both of those bands are two of our favorites. We're so excited.
Rod Ryan
Perfect.
Mo
We'll see y' all September 27th in the Woodlands.
Rod Ryan
You're awesome.
Mo
Yes, thank you.
Rod Ryan
You are awesome. All right, Chrissy, be careful on the roads. Thank you so much out there in Friendswood. All right, well, rain. What else you want me to say? What do you got for Houston's headlines over there?
Mo
Rain and elections, Rod.
Rod Ryan
Oh, my God. Is it over?
Mo
I think.
Rod Ryan
Is it runoffs? Is it runoffs for the runoffs?
Mo
I actually don't know about that.
Rod Ryan
I just feel like there's a non stop cycle of like is that are campaigning.
Mo
We voted yesterday. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton won the Republican Senate primary runoff.
Rod Ryan
And they were running commercials against him. Like he's too weird for Texas.
Mo
Yeah. The most expensive Senate primary in U.S. history. He beat four term incumbent Senator John Cornyn. President Trump had endorsed Paxton just last week, calling him loyal, saying Cornyn had not been supportive. Republicans invested millions of dollars to protect Cornyn because they're a little nervous about this James Talarico guy. Guy come November. So we'll see what happens. But tons of headlines coming out of elections yesterday.
Rod Ryan
So that guy's gonna be back. The guy that lost.
Mo
No, Paxton.
Rod Ryan
Oh, yeah.
Mo
The guy that won will now go up against the Democrats.
Rod Ryan
Oh, stop.
Mo
James Talarico in November to see who wins November. November is the real election.
Rod Ryan
You gotta be kidding me.
Mo
I know, I know, I know.
Rod Ryan
How did this happen?
Mo
We gotta go shout out to all the line workers hustling out there this morning in the rain. CenterPoint reported thousands of customers without electricity across the area. And like Rod said, that's going to be our Wednesday. That first line of storms has moved mostly east, still lingering a little bit, but it's now looking like a second round moving through around 9pm or 9am between 9 and 11 this morning. Strong winds, not as strong as early overnight. But the rain is obviously what we're watching. Rod, I am interested in driving 190mph.
Rod Ryan
I am not even a car guy guy. And I've been talking about it with you guys. This morning. How badass this Ferrari is.
Mo
Fully electric car, the first for Ferrari.
Rod Ryan
And I really have never considered getting an electric car. I think it's all in our future. I think so. Maybe way down the road. But then when you told me the price tag. This one's. This one's not in my future.
Mo
$640,000.
Rod Ryan
Wow. It's so cool looking.
Mo
They're calling it Ferrari's signature performance. Performance with family friendly touches.
Rod Ryan
It does 190 miles an hour. What's family friendly about that? I don't know.
Mo
Sometimes you got places to be. It's pretty. You got to check out the pics. Chili's got a blog page up with all the specs.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
Famous Rod Bryan show page@thebuzz.com just what
Rod Ryan
are like true car guys? You know those guys, Are they like, are you mad that Ferrari made an ev?
Mo
That's a good question.
Rod Ryan
I'm sure there's somebody mad.
Mo
I'm sure someone's always mad.
Rod Ryan
Oh, Ferrari used to be cool.
Mo
This looks pretty cool. Major shake up on Sunday's episode of Euphoria. I'm not here to spoil shows.
Rod Ryan
I started watching a little bit of it.
Mo
The Sunday episode. No, you're trying to get caught up.
Rod Ryan
I've watched like the first two episodes.
Mo
It's weird. All the headlines are always about this dang show.
Rod Ryan
On Monday. Alex will tell you it trends every Monday.
Alex
I was kind of happy we had money off.
Rod Ryan
So there's a list that they put out and it talks about just the most shocking deaths. Tony Soprano in tv. Well, Tony Soprano. We don't know if he dies.
Mo
He's not. Yeah, they don't count him.
Rod Ryan
We.
Alex
We know he died though.
Rod Ryan
We don't know that.
Alex
We do know though.
Rod Ryan
Chase has said that we don't know that he didn't die on tv, but everything goes black. I'm glad you started with succession because when Brian comes. Cox. What was he? Logan, Roy.
Alex
That the dad?
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Alex
That was the first episode.
Rod Ryan
No, but it was early on. It was kind of. I'm sorry. Some of this stuff's going to be. Spoiler. We're not going to talk about. It's over.
Alex
The show's over.
Rod Ryan
But we're not going to talk about Euphoria.
Mo
But it's on the list.
Rod Ryan
But when Ned Stark died in the first season of Game of Thrones, I'm like, what the hell? What the hell kind of show is this? What is this? Like, that's like the guy that everybody loves liked.
Mo
Stop. And they killed him.
Rod Ryan
Off. There's going to be nothing more to watch. And then all of a sudden, okay, there's more to watch. So that was shocking, but that was way down on the list.
Mo
Patrick Dempsey, when his character died on Grey's Anatomy.
Rod Ryan
I never watched that show.
Alex
I hated that part.
Mo
I remember it being, like, culturally shocking. How did Charlie Sheen die on Two and a Half Men?
Rod Ryan
They didn't renew his contract, so they
Mo
just, what, shot him.
Rod Ryan
They said that he died and then they put what's his nut in there? Ashton Kutcher.
Alex
It was the tiger blood thing. And they're like, we're just gonna kind of distance ourselves from you, Charles.
Rod Ryan
So Chili put up a link on this, too. The most shocking deaths in TV history on the Office. It's a pretty good list. Did somebody die in the Office?
Alex
Yeah, he was decapitated.
Mo
Not make your top 10 here.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, sorry, that didn't make it.
Mo
And let's talk. Talk a little music news because Ultra Bridge just announced an extension to their current tour. If you missed him when here in April. I kind of think this might be your second chance because they announced 18 dates, a second US leg, and one of them is San Antonio. So you can check out the new album live on stage. Tickets to this one go on sale Friday at 10am we had rave reviews
Rod Ryan
of people that went to the Ultra Bridge. The day after, people went out of their way to tell us how great they were.
Mo
Like, I think some of those people will go again.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
But those are Houston's headlines.
Rod Ryan

Rod Ryan
That's what Chili was chanting way over. Yeah, that was really good. That was really good, Alex.

Rod Ryan
That's Chevelle telling you, you got too much. Your singing voice is being way underutilized on this show, dude. Way underutilized.
Mo
I can't.
Rod Ryan
No, no. I know all about it. I know all about it. That singing voice needs to be used. So then. All right, so you have the song. Yeah. All right. So this is it.

Alex
Janice.
Rod Ryan
Well, but we. We'd have to show her the video. We'd have to show her the video because that's. That's my psycho test. Because you either are a sympathizer or you are somebody that is laughing like. Like crazy at Janice. No, I would have to pull up the video and then. Have you. We might. Okay. If we have time later on in the show. I have to.
Mo
You're gonna do the psycho test on me? I think you already know.
Rod Ryan
I know what you're gonna do. I know you're gonna laugh your tits off. Yeah.
Alex
Oh, yeah.
Mo
And I am loud and clear.
Rod Ryan
And I am a sympathizer. That I do not find the video funny. That I am freaked out that that kid feels like he's gonna die in the video. I do not.
Mo
Does he die? But does he die?
Rod Ryan
That's how I determine whether or not somebody's a psycho as I play in that video. Oh, all right. We might have. Maybe we're gonna have to do that now. Today, the show. All right. That I can't focus. Guys.

The Vegas Golden Knights are trending. Or as they say in Canada, the Vegas Golden Knights, they advanced to their third Stanley cup final in their nine years of existence. They swept the avalanche who many people thought were going to win the Stanley cup this year swept them last night for nothing. And then the last trend we have is Walmart Parmesan Ranch.

Right on. Thank you all very much.
Rod Ryan
We need to do that, like, at the end of the show.
Mo
I don't ever want to do it again.
Rod Ryan
All right, great job, everybody. Travis, your big winner today. Way to go, dude. Nicely played. Rock and alternative for Houston.
Mo
The Rod ryan Morning Show. 6 to 10am The Buzz 94.
Rod Ryan
5 the Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan. Show everybody's heart's still pounding from the five game here. We still have a lot of tickets for you. I know. Ashley with an eye sent me screen caps of like you on the. She must be watching on Facebook or YouTube.
Mo
Sorry, girl.
Rod Ryan
And you're like, I'm very reactive.
Mo
Like my.
Rod Ryan
It looks like you're getting the election results. Oh my God. Oh my God. I'm sorry.
Mo
That's how I really am.
Rod Ryan
Oh my.
Mo
Sometimes I forget the camera's on me.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She said some really funny screen caps. You can tell? I mean, it's. We're all nervous when we're playing that five game, for Christ's sakes. You sure you want to choose that line? She said that? You seem to like it when people call their own line.
Mo
Oh, it frees me.
Rod Ryan
I feel themselves off.
Mo
I feel so bad.
Rod Ryan
I'm going to place. We're going to give you some Motley Crue tickets coming up at 8:20. The pit tickets. The Godsmack are at 9, 10 and I got mo right now with Houston's headlines.
Mo
Thank you, sir. So, elections yesterday.
Rod Ryan
Oh my God. John Cordyn's out. Oh my God. The talk of the country.
Mo
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton won the Republican Senate primary runoff. He unseated four term incumbent Senator John Cornyn in the most expensive Senate primary in U.S. history.
Rod Ryan
But then you're saying that John Cornyn is going to run for something in November?
Mo
No, no, no. Republicans had tried to protect Cornyn because they were scared that if Ken Paxton won, which he did, he wouldn't be able to beat the Democrat guy, James Talarico. Now we're going to see what happens in November when the real election happens.
Rod Ryan
Thanks for breaking that down.
Mo
I got you. I don't think I've got you. If I'm the one that's got you, you're in trouble. Did you lose power overnight night at all?
Rod Ryan
No.
Mo
Oh, it scared the crap out of me.
Rod Ryan
Generac generator.
Mo
Oh, yeah. Lucky. Centerpoint reported thousands of customers without electricity across the area. Thunderstorms moved through. That's just gonna be our day today. The first line of storms is past us, but now it's looking like there might be a second round moving through between 9 and 11 this morning. That line not as strong in the wind category, but the rain totals are gonna that more rain.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. And I did say like, while we're on, it looks like it's really heavy. Chances of rain. Oh, 11 o', clock, 12 o', clock, 100% chance a little bit later. So not till like 12 o', clock, does it. It's going to stay cloudy, obviously, but at least we'll lighten up on the showers. But, yeah, it's heavy. 11 and 12 now.
Alex
Wow.
Mo
Just one of those days. Be careful out there.
Rod Ryan
Nasty.
Mo
Did you know that the fastest growing city in America is Charlotte, North Carolina? No, I don't think I would have guessed that if you made me.
Rod Ryan
I thought it would have been a Texas city for sure, but you said it was. Fort Worth was right behind them.
Mo
Fort Worth is right behind Charlotte. This new analysis.
Rod Ryan
Charlotte's cool. I got a friend that lives there, visited there.
Mo
They're saying we're full, which I know we say a lot here in Houston as well. But this new ranking king looked at how many people moved to the different big Cities last year. 20, 25. Charlotte was number one. Fort Worth number two. San Antonio was three. Houston came in at number five.
Rod Ryan
When do we overtake Chicago? I don't know why that means so much to me. Do you know my thing on this?
Mo
I don't know your thing on this, but I think I know why it's your thing.
Rod Ryan
My thing on this is we keep being told that all these people are moving here. And I am kind of of that, hey, okay, we have enough people here. How many more people can we fit on these roads? I want just enough people to become the third biggest city in America. I think that would help our identity crisis.
Mo
Did it not happen already?
Rod Ryan
I don't know that I don't think.
Mo
For some reason I felt like it did.
Rod Ryan
Somebody's going to tell me that, yeah, we've already done that. I don't know. I don't think Recognized by the census. We have. Okay, so depending on, you know, the latest numbers, I don't know what fake numbers are on out there. I feel it's important for this city to be the third biggest city in America. Think about that. New York, la, Houston, then Chicago. What will it do? I don't know, but we need a booth, we need a little zhuzhed up. We need a little oomph around here.
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
You know, but don't move here.
Alex
Stay away.
Rod Ryan
Well, move here until we overtake Chicago and then leave and then put up a wall. Love it.
Mo
Just like we do. Pics and videos are showing workers in the beginning stages of assembling the UFC Octagon on the White House South Lawn.
Rod Ryan
Sorry. Not sorry. This looks badass.
Mo
I didn't think the videos yesterday were real. I was like, wait, is that. Is that.
Alex
There's Like a cage so wild, it's
Mo
visible right above the roof line of the West. And I also learned yesterday when this all started that the event is planned for June 14, Flag Day. Also President Trump's birthday.
Rod Ryan
Joy Behar's gotta be losing her mind on the View.
Mo
What are we doing over here? For some reason, I thought it was closer to the Fourth of July. It is part of America's 250th anniversary celebrations. Five fights. Bouts, if you will. Lots of people going to be there.
Rod Ryan
You think their fights will go longer than 17 seconds?
Mo
I'm going to go with. They hope that they do.
Rod Ryan
That was that whole another fight. That's what that was about.
Mo
You know, the ladies.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, it was. It was. It was counter programming the fight you're talking about at the White House.
Mo
Oh, yeah.
Rod Ryan
It was like, hey, we weren't invited to that White House fight, but we can still put on a show over here.
Mo
Have you seen the West Wing? Okay. And then let's talk music for just a sec. Because Rivers Cuomo of Weezer uploaded 16 acoustic solo cover record recordings to his YouTube channel over the weekend. And folks are wondering, what is going on? Alex, did you say it was intentional or accidental?
Alex
I don't think you accidentally upload 16 videos.
Mo
It's sus, though.
Alex
I don't know about that. Why would it be sus?
Mo
I mean, I guess he's not.
Alex
He's not doing anything bad. It's just not bad. Just kind of like, Here you go. Strumming his guitar.
Rod Ryan
The real stripped down is basic, You know, it's got a home studio feel about it. It's not bad. No, they're really old.
Mo
He did them, like between 2018 and 2021. They're all over the place.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, there's about 10 or 15 of them that are online now.
Mo
Michael Jackson, Nirvana. There's some outcast in there. There. Green Day. I don't.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, if you go to.
Mo
Not full covers, but you can check them out.
Rod Ryan
Let's see. Let me see if I can pull up Rivers Cuomo. Here's his channel. So, I mean, he's probably the only one that can upload stuff to his channel.
Mo
Maybe. I don't know. He hasn't commented on whether it was deliberate or accidental, but it has fans talking.
Rod Ryan
Let's hear this one.
Mo
That's it.
Rod Ryan
California sounds like Rivers Cuomo in a
Mo
coffee shop by himself. People are snapping.
Rod Ryan
That's what it feels like. Why would he put these out? I don't know.
Alex
He just had them and he's like, you know, sometimes you empty the drafts folder.
Rod Ryan
You think maybe.
Alex
I don't think it hurts anything.
Rod Ryan
All right, I gotta link up to all of these on the music blog page today.
Mo

Rod Ryan

Mo
I'm blaming everything on that guy Ray.
Rod Ryan
I think everything gets blamed on that Mike Miles dude. Like what, you're still in school? Yeah, Mike Miles.
Mo
I'm like, okay, okay, figuring it out.
Rod Ryan
I have follow up questions but this did happen to me yesterday. I want to mention this. So you know my kids school and then you know, I get access. The teacher uploads pictures on a closed circuit like Instagram.
Mo
Oh yeah, we have one of those.
Rod Ryan
So I can see some of the things that are going on and I fall into the same trappings as a lot of parents and I hear parents when I pick up London. I'm like, you know, first thing, what do you say to your kid? How was school today?
Mo
How was your day? Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And kids never have anything to say. Yeah, it was good. What'd you do? You can't leave it up to kids. You can't just say, what, How'd it go today? They're like, yeah, it was school, dad, get off me. Get off me.
Mo
Do it every day.
Rod Ryan
So I've, I try to go next level instead of just saying, how was school? I try to say, you know, hey, anybody get in trouble today?
Mo
Yes, that's a good one.
Rod Ryan
That's a good one. And I, I didn't use that one yesterday today, but I did say, hey, end of the year, anybody acting up? Like, I always go deviant. I always feel like she's going to spill the beans on that. She doesn't really share anything. She's like, nah, nah, no big deal. No big deal, right?
Mo
Shut up.
Rod Ryan
So we're going to bed. Last night, like any kid, she's coming up with all the things, hey, what about banana and peanut butter? M. Hey, what about this?
Mo
Mine too. One more question.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's one more question. One more question. So she's stalling.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
So I just got, I just about got her. Her down and she goes, we had a laser show at school today. I go, you didn't talk to me the whole walk home from school. And now you tell me there was a laser show. Sure as ass. I look on the Instagram. What? That kid had a laser show yesterday. She tells me, right? I mean, I'm like, this is it, right? Like I'm, I'm just about to walk out and I'm like, I'm gonna turn off the light. Dad, we had a laser show at school today.
Mo
Like, what, what does that mean?
Rod Ryan
They had a laser show? I don't know, like in a second assembly.
Mo
Who brought lasers to school?
Rod Ryan
Lasers? I don't know. They thanked the laser people. Then she had pizza with the teacher yesterday. Didn't tell me that. I asked her, what'd you do in school? Nothing.
Mo
Nothing.
Rod Ryan
She had pizza with the teacher. Somebody had won that in some kind of social or whatever. So the little girl had asked her to come. And then the seniors, this. I, she didn't tell me this. I said, saw that. The seniors, I think this is kind of a cool thing. We didn't do any of this stuff when I was in school. None of this. Okay, the PTA is nuts, but this school where she goes, I said, she goes to Harvard they brought back the seniors from all the other schools that those kids went to.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
If they were available. All the kids get in the hallway, like London. And all the young kids, K through 5, clap out. You know, this walk through.
Alex
My mom went to the school she used to teach at for that, like, so she could see the kids that she taught that are graduating.
Rod Ryan
Yes. And all the kids, they're like, new thing. I think once a Harvard eagle, always a Harvard eagle.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And these are kids that are graduating high school that have gone on to all the different schools in the. In the area. They come back to their grade school really cool. And they walk the halls. I asked my kid, what'd you do in school today?
Mo
Remember that?
Rod Ryan
She didn't talk to me the whole walk home. She said nothing. Okay. It's two seconds before I turn off the light. Hey, we had a laser show. And. And I. I had pizza with a teacher.
Mo
Like, well, I have you, little lover.
Rod Ryan
I guess I did. I guess I did the same thing. We didn't do anything like that. We didn't have any fun like that.
Alex
They have lasers.
Mo
Back then, lasers didn't exist.
Rod Ryan
The laser hadn't been invented yet. It was black and white. So clap out is what that's called.
Alex
That's what it was called for my
Mo
mom's school, the K walk through or something. I saw it on the pto.
Alex
My mom would always. She'll always take pictures with, like, all the kids that she. Kindergarten teacher. So you've gone through the whole thing. So it's like she had, like, 15 kids that came back at the one that she went to a couple weeks ago.
Rod Ryan
It's probably emotional. Yeah. You know?
Alex
Yeah. Then you get to ask, like, where they're going to school, what they're doing next. Like, it's a. It's a really cool thing.
Rod Ryan
My kid said nothing happened at school.
Mo
Hilarious.
Rod Ryan
Like, there's three huge things that happened in that one day. You would think if she was going to chitchat with me a little bit on the walk home, like, that would have been the day. Nothing.
Mo

Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And the kid. What? Who is Janice? Why is he calling her Janice?
Alex
She's on the.
Rod Ryan
She's on the slingshot ride with him. So it's not his mom. And is it a him? It is a. I hate to be so binary, but it's a boy. He looks like a young Ralphie May, if you remember. If you know who Ralphie is. God rest his soul. We love Ralphie. So he looks like a young Ralphie May.
Mo
He's a big boy.
Rod Ryan
He's a real heavy kid.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
Okay, so he. He's in this two seater and they just think about like any seaside amusement
Mo
park, you know, boardwalk situation.
Rod Ryan
Yep.
Mo
Okay.
Rod Ryan
And you've got the chubby kid, which I don't believe we know his name, but we know Janice.
Alex
Oh, we definitely know Janice.
Rod Ryan
And he's calling her Janice in the video. So maybe it's like the cool aunt.
Alex
I don't think she was cool.
Mo
She's taking him on a ride.
Rod Ryan
So we'll find out. This guy is strapped into this ride and they've got a camera on them and they posted this. And this is just this viral video from I don't even know how many years ago.
Mo
Definitely the 90s. Look at her shirt.
Rod Ryan
Okay, 90s. Does it say 15 years? 15 years ago. All right, you have not seen this video.
Mo
Never mind.
Rod Ryan
You have not seen this Video? No. Okay. So I'm not gonna say anything more. Okay. I'm just gonna have Mo watch the video.
Alex
I think that's the way to go.
Rod Ryan
Okay. So I'm kind of set it up. You kind of know what Mo is looking at. And here's them just about to take off. Kid's scared to death.
Mo
He's less than ideal. She said there's a camera, smiling, waving.
Rod Ryan
Now they're getting ready. They get blasted off. Keep your head back.
Mo
Feet on the rail.
Rod Ryan
Janice is having a good time. He almost falls out. No, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it. The kid is hanging on for his life.
Alex
Might be dying.
Mo
He can't. The straps aren't holding him in.
Rod Ryan
Janice is laughing. Mo's laughing.
Alex
Mo's definitely laughing.
Rod Ryan
This kid thinks he's gonna die.
Alex
This is what he thinks is the
Mo
end of his life about to decapitate him.
Rod Ryan
He can't move. Janice does not ping af.
Mo
She's just calm and strapped in tightly.
Rod Ryan
She's laughing her tits off. That kid is still in a bad spot. Mo, that kid thought he was going to die. Fine.
Mo
That did not look like a regulation like strap.
Rod Ryan
He might. Thought he was going to die.
Mo
He did.
Rod Ryan
That's the psycho test.
Alex
Yep.
Mo
Are you telling me there are people that don't laugh at that video?
Alex
I was concerned for the boys.
Rod Ryan
All I can. All I can think about is that poor kid thought he was going to die. And Janice.
Mo
Who is the Janice?
Rod Ryan
The adult in the situation.
Mo
Oh, my word. What was she supposed to do?
Rod Ryan
Someone that you think that maybe he could count on. And Janice is. She's finding it to be the funniest thing ever.
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And this kid is thinking he's going to die.
Mo
She didn't know.
Rod Ryan
And then I play it for you and you're laughing.
Mo
I'm a mother.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Mo
All right.
Rod Ryan
That's it. End of exercise.
Mo
Did I pass?
Rod Ryan
You're a psycho. I know you're a psycho. I happen to be a sympathizer with the chubby kid because I am that chubby kid.
Mo
Let's check on him.
Rod Ryan
I. I am that kid.
Mo
See where he is today.
Rod Ryan
Okay. I've been stuck on a ride before.
Mo
You have not.
Rod Ryan
Yes, I have.
Mo
Goodbye.
Rod Ryan
Yes, I have. All right. For those of you that have been asking to. For Mo to take that test, obviously she failed miserably. Get back on your own side.
Alex

And that was one of Dinah's favorites. And MO either passed or failed. However you react to that video. Failed. Evil. Evil. Evil. Good morning, everybody. Rob Ryan show Wild Card Wednesday. Hey, He's not bringing that slingshot thing out there on Friday, is he?

Mo
He's gonna teach you to play some games.

Official shot of Ditch Day.
Alex
Yep.
Rod Ryan
Deb from bmp, she's making the shirts. The T shirts are something that we give out in the very beginning so people do get there early. The official start time of the party is at noon. What am I missing other than. Do you bring your own Sharpies?
Alex
Maybe bring some Sharpies, cuz somebody.
Rod Ryan
Somebody suggested this. I not. It's not a horrible idea. Name tags?
Alex
You bring name tags?
Mo
You know I love a name tag.
Alex
Wait a minute.
Rod Ryan
They've heard of this Josh Tree guy.
Mo
Oh yeah.
Rod Ryan
Which one is Josh Tree?
Mo
Putting a face with a. A name.
Rod Ryan
You know, like which one is this? Oh, I've heard of this guy on the air before. I've heard this. Where's Ashley with an eye? You know, she. She doesn't need a name tag. Everybody knows her. Maybe not. Maybe not. Maybe somebody bring name tags. Are we forgetting anything though?
Mo
I mean, it's free. You can just come. It's just day drinking.
Alex
I don't think we're.
Rod Ryan
Day drink. The kitchen will be open. Order some food, maybe get some.
Alex
Food is important.
Rod Ryan
That's it. Now we're going to. We'll play some games. I'll bring some tickets. But I don't want to work either.
Alex
Right? We want to chill.
Rod Ryan
I'm not joking. I don't want to work.
Mo
We want to drink and hang out with y'.
Alex
All.
Rod Ryan
We just want to hang out with. So we do. Maybe we'll do a couple of games that's always really, really fun. And we'll give away some tickets. I haven't even asked the Fun Squad.
Mo
Oh, great. You haven't even asked.
Rod Ryan
No. Unless Chili has, which I'm thinking probably not. He's shaking his beard. Chili, Fun Squad. Ask the Fun Squad if we could have some tickets. Good luck with that. What you're asking me on Wednesday for Friday.
Mo
They know.
Rod Ryan
I know exactly what they're going to say. So I want you all to come out and party with us on Friday. Gunner is going to have the place ready to go. I cannot wait to hang out with you guys starting at noon this Friday. Chili's got all these details on links and guests. The Rod ryan Morning show. 6 to 10am the buzz. All right, here we come. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. Wild card Wednesday. We still got another hour to hang. I got pit tickets to Godsmack, STP, Dorothy May 30th at the Woodlands. I'm gonna give you those at around 9, 10. And then I got baby metal hailstorm tickets for you on Psycho. Mo knows the show. Yeah, Mo laughing. Josh Re said there's nothing wrong with you. He laughs at that too.
Mo
Thank you.
Rod Ryan
Or he's a psycho like you.
Mo
Just like us.
Rod Ryan
The Help Me Janice video. You're gonna have to go look that up on your own. We gotta move on. We gotta do some other things here. So wet we continues. Mo's got Houston's headlines.
Mo
Yes, wet weather and politics also trending today. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton won the Republican Senate primary runoff. And we will continue to talk about this because it is the most expensive Senate primary in U.S. history. So now Paxton will face Democrat and State Representative James Talarico in November. Lots of those Texas primaries are making headlines across the nation today. Big shout out to our line workers that were working overnight last night. Centerpoint reported thousands of customers without electricity across the area as those thunderstorms moved through. We are now waiting for another round of storms that is on the way. It's looking like around lunchtime this afternoon.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, 11, 11, 12 o'. Clock. Looks nasty.
Mo
Not strong winds like the overnight ones, but the rain totals are what we're watching. I mo am interested in driving 190mph. We've been talking a lot about this new fully electric Ferrari. Did you get emails about that? Since we've talked about it earlier this
Rod Ryan
morning, one guy was mad that there's a, that there's an electric Ferrari. What kind of world do we live in?
Mo
Ferrari has officially entered the EV era with the debut of the their new fully electric luxury vehicle. The Apple design chief is also behind this and they're calling it a performance family friendly car.
Rod Ryan
And what does the price tag look like?
Mo
I'm looking at $640,000.
Rod Ryan
Hey, family boy. It's family friendly.
Mo
A couple houses.
Rod Ryan
It's family, family friendly. You can go 190 miles an hour with your two babies in there and it's only gonna cost you 600 000. If you want to see the car, Chili has a link up.
Mo
It's thank you Chili.
Rod Ryan
It is badass.
Mo
Looking beautiful. I would like to just maybe give it a spin. Major shake up on Sunday's episode of Euphoria. I'm not spoiling anything. Not me.
Rod Ryan
Well, but what's the subject of what you're talking about? And I don't know think that's the 70s.
Mo
That is not what I'm saying. This because of the Euphoria thing. This list came out of the most shocking deaths in TV history.
Rod Ryan
So it's safe to say somebody dies in Euphoria.
Mo
I have no idea.
Rod Ryan
It's the final season. Of course. I mean all those, they used to be kids. Now all these people, they want to be let out of their contracts. They're probably all signed up like very famous. Kill me.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
Kill me in the first episode.
Mo
Some of these you never saw coming. And I think it's kind of funny to hear y' all talk about how you feel about them.
Rod Ryan
I think Logan Roy from Succession was, was the most shocking, but it's only shocking if you watch the show.
Mo
It's literally the number one on this highlight list.
Rod Ryan
I think that was just. You couldn't imagine the show without him. And then it made sense when he went down and the kids all infighting and stuff. I thought higher up on the list would have been Ned Stark. He came in at number nine that first season of Game of Thrones. That's when you kind of realized nobody is safe. You can't fall in love with any character on Game of Thrones because you don't know any episode. They could go chop him when they, they literally chopped his head off. And I'm like, I thought the whole show was based on him.
Mo
Think again.
Rod Ryan
So that's what the beauty of Game of Thrones was.
Mo
Think again.
Rod Ryan
Charlie Sheen made the list. Was that shocking or did we just know that he was fighting with the creator of the show as a human?
Mo
He was fighting with the human creator of the show. So they killed off his character.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Piano dropped on his head.
Mo
That's what happened.
Rod Ryan
I think that's what they said. I don't know. I didn't really watch that show.
Mo
It made number two on the most shocking character deaths in TV history. But I thought that list was pretty funny.
Rod Ryan
It's another link that we have up today.
Mo
All right, and then let's talk Alter Bridge. Because when they were in town back in April. April, people loved the show. We heard about it for a while. So they just announced an extension of their current tour. 18 more dates added to the US leg and one of them is San Antonio. So if you missed him in Houston or if you loved him in Houston, you get another chance to go buy general tickets go on sale Friday at 10am Those are Houston's headlines.
Rod Ryan
You watch Walking Dead, huh? You watched it for a while, Glenn. Was that a shocking death?
Alex
If it was like in the comics, like everybody. I didn't read the comics, but I knew what happened to them.
Rod Ryan
Right, but was that like a Abraham dying?
Alex
The big guy getting killed after Goon got killed was a bigger surprise to me.
Rod Ryan
Glenn, re. Walking Dead is number three most shocking TV death in history.
Alex
Yeah, I don't know.
Rod Ryan
No, I'm out on them.
Alex
I've Walking Dead just, I, I, I got so frustrated with that show.
Rod Ryan
I know. Cuz everybody watched it. Because it kept going on and on and on, right? Yeah. Just wrap it up, boys. Dexter also made the list. Not Dexter, but.
Alex
Oh, was it Rita?
Rod Ryan
Rita. Oh, was that shocking? Ben, my sweetheart, shocking.
Alex
So much. Yes.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Alex
That was shook. I've been by a character death.
Rod Ryan
Real Dexter. Okay.
Alex
Trinity killer John Lithgow.
Rod Ryan
Go see, go see this list on links and guests. What's going on in sports.
Alex
Astros lost the Rangers last night, 10 to 7. They're gonna play the Rangers again tonight. Mike Burrows will be on the mound for the Stroz. Going up against the Rangers, Jacob Grom, first pitches at 7:05. You can listen to it on our sister Station Sports Talk790. In the NBA playoffs, the Thunder beat the Spurs 127 to 114 to take a 32 lead in the Western Conference finals. And in the Stanley cup playoffs. The Vegas Golden Knights are headed to the Stanley cup finals. They got behind the Avalanche two to one to sweep the Western Conference finals tonight. Canadians are going to host the Hurricanes for game four of the Eastern Conference finals. That'll start at seven and you can watch it on tnt. That is what's going on in sports.
Rod Ryan
Houston's rock, Houston's alternative, and the Rod Ryan morning show.
Mo
The buzz.
Rod Ryan
Come on, 94. Five the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for rolling with us on this nasty, skanky wild card Wednesday. That's not the gal that's featured on. On the Instagram. She's not skanky, she's wonderful. The weather nasty out there. We got more rain coming too, also. We'll get. We're gonna get you in the pit for God. Smack, stp, Dorothy, coming up in just a little bit. Gotta look at this Drake situation here. Anybody listening to any of this? Three albums that are out right now. You listening to any of that stuff?
Alex
So. So on no con.
Rod Ryan
No.
Mo
This now I've tried.
Rod Ryan
This is on me. I'm putting this song in. It's in the system.
Alex
This is clean. I checked it yesterday.
Rod Ryan
Janice. Which is funny. It's the video you watched. Janice. The number one song in the country right now. It's been so long since you texted me. I finally took Janice. Stfu. Okay. Number one song, Billboard. We still go to Billboard. When we. We look at, like, what's the most popular music that's going on in America? So Drake becomes the first artist ever to hold the first three spots on the Billboard 200 album chart. Chart. That's been used forever. You know, Billboard's been around since the Beatles and probably a little before the top 200 albums in the country. The place you go to look for that is Billboard, and he's got the top 1, 2, and 3 spots on the album chart. So that's, I think, a record. The other thing you hear about maybe, and it doesn't. We don't talk about this stuff because our music's not on there. They don't care about rock music. Okay, billboard, the Hot 100. 42 of the songs off of those three albums that he released a week ago are now on that chart.
Mo
42 of the 100, 42 of the 100.
Rod Ryan
He owns almost half of the Hot 100 this. This week. And he owns nine of the top 10 songs on the Billboard Hot 100. This is the same measurement they used when the Beatles were putting out music. But they've had to do it differently. They've had to. It used to be album sales and singles sold and all of that. And now it streams, and you get certain amount of streams, and that counts as selling a. Selling of 45.
Mo
Oh, they figured out, like, percentages and stuff.
Rod Ryan
They figured out a math equation.
Mo
Okay, that.
Rod Ryan
And I just. Is there anybody? And this is going up against Michael Jackson's numbers now? Is Drake bigger than Michael Jackson?
Mo
Dang.
Rod Ryan
The numbers. The way that we're calculating the numbers now, he's breaking all the Michael Jackson stuff and he's going at Beatles Rush Records. Now, is he bigger than the Beatles or. Or are their numbers wrong? It's a different game.
Alex
There's also just more people.
Rod Ryan
It's a different playing field.
Alex
The access is easier than it's ever been.
Rod Ryan
Did they come up with the right weight of a stream and how many streams it caught? How many streams do you have to do to it? Equate to a kid back in the 60s going and buying the Beatles 45.
Mo
Locking their booty in.
Rod Ryan
Yes.
Mo
Saving their money until they could afford
Rod Ryan
it and looking at radio spins and everything else. So, Janice, STFU is the number one song. Okay, so Drake now has 14 number ones. He has broken Michael Jackson's record for most number ones by a solo male artist. Michael only had 13. Drake's got 14. I'll give him that. I'll give him that. A single. A single is a single to me. Right, okay. But having 42 songs on the Hot one 100 in one week, God rest his soul, if Casey Kasem was still alive, it's like, okay, in. At number 64 is Drake. And here we are at 62, still. Drake again, it's Drake. Okay, welcome back to the top 100. It's Casey case of in at number 33. This has got to be mistake. Is it Drake? Drake again. It's Drake. Geez. We got drake in at 33.
Mo
Okay. Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Welcome back. We're in the top. We're not cracking into the top 20. And in at number 20. This can't be right. Let me check my paper. Looks like it's Drake again.
Mo
I died.
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Is it real?
Mo
It's different.
Rod Ryan
It just. Drake is the first artist to reach 400 hundred hot 100 hits. He's the only one with at least 300 of those. He has 400. These are Wayne Gretzky numbers. Now, Taylor Swift has 276, if you need a comparison.
Mo
Right, right.
Rod Ryan
Taylor Swift has 276 Hot 100 hits. Every song on these Drake three albums are in the Hot 100. Drake has 400 songs that have made the top 100. So he's surpassed everybody on every thing that you count. Now, does it make him the biggest artist of all time or is it just a new way of counting? I don't know. I don't have the answer to that question. I don't have the answer.
Mo
Every music headline is any Drake.
Rod Ryan
Is Drake bigger than the Beatles? You're talking about a solo male artist and you're talking about a band.
Mo
So they.
Rod Ryan
Two different things. So the real comparison would be Michael Jackson. Is anyone going to say that Drake's bigger than Michael Jackson ever was
Alex
in reality? No, that's. Yes.
Rod Ryan
Do you guys remember the mayhem around Michael Jackson? Do you remember, like, how famous he was? No, not. Not crazy Michael. Probably like where the movie ends. Probably like movie Michael.
Mo
Yeah. We were young.
Rod Ryan
The absolute mayhem around him. Because I think I. I was a kid when that. That stuff. When Thriller and Billie Jean and Beat it and all those songs were like. Were on mtv.
Mo
We saw Free Willie.
Rod Ryan
Right. I just. Somebody would have a hard time. You would have to work pretty hard to tell me. It's not that I dislike Drake. I'm just saying you would have. You would have a hard time.
Mo
It's hard to fathom.
Rod Ryan
I'd be open to the argument because of these numbers here. Could somebody argue that, yeah, Drake's bigger. You got it. You can't. You got to use more than the Billboard numbers, though. You got to do more than streaming numbers. You have to tell me that. How could you possibly prove to me that he's bigger than Michael Jackson? He has shattered every record that's left to see. In his day.
Alex
Death.
Mo
Yeah. It's kind of like icon status. Are we still going to be talking about him? I don't know.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Will there be a Drake biopic?
Mo
Exactly.
Alex
There definitely will be down the road.
Rod Ryan
Right.
Mo
He's probably making it himself.
Alex
Kendrick Lamar might make it, though. That'd be very different.
Rod Ryan
Oh, and that's the other thing. Kendrick Lamar, nothing. He did hurt Drake.
Alex
Did MJ have beef with anybody? Like, public beef? I mean, he kind of had some beef with the Beatles by buying their stuff, right?
Rod Ryan
Yeah. He got into a fight with Paul
Alex
McCartney, but it wasn't like.
Rod Ryan
It wasn't like rap beef because it wasn't on the Internet. There was no Internet. You know, we just knew that Paul McCartney was pissed because he. Michael Jackson, befriended Paul McCartney and then went in and bought the Beatles catalog.
Alex
He suggested they sell it. Right. Wasn't he like, yo, you should sell your catalog somehow?
Rod Ryan
He was very underhanded in it. And he went in and bought the Beatles, the catalog underneath Paul McCartney's. Well, Paul McCartney's around and very aware of what's going on. He went in there and swindled him while they were friends.
Alex
Not cool.
Rod Ryan
They did that song together. They did that, you know, that collab together. And then he went out and did that to him. All right, that's it. I just. It's interesting. I. It's crazy interesting.
Mo
It's the world we live in.
Rod Ryan
Half. Almost half of the top 100 songs are Drake's 42. It's amazing. And then I'll say something like, that'll never be done again. Yeah. Will. Kendrick Lamar's gonna put out nine albums on one day. We're gonna come into work, and Kendrick Lamar is gonna have 15 albums out on the same day, and you guys are gonna go and lose your mind over every track. Yeah. And I'm gonna say, how. How do you. How do you like somebody that much? My favorite guy in the world. I don't like that much. I don't want three albums. I don't want three Foo Fighter albums. I can't. I didn't. I haven't even listened to every track on the. The last album yet.
Alex
I don't have enough time.
Rod Ryan
Let's give away some tickets.
Alex
Move on.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
God Smack tickets. I don't have any Drake tickets. God smack. I have pit passes to see them this weekend in the Woodlands. They're going to be with Stone Temple Pilots and Dorothy. Tickets are on sale. Ticketmaster.com but these are PIT passes for caller 10. 713-212-5945.
Rod Ryan
One final thing. I'm not being insulting.
Mo
What?
Rod Ryan
When Drake goes out on tour. He plays stadiums now, right? Is he always a stadium guy or has he been a stadium guy for a while?
Mo
Didn't he play the CHA center one time when he was here? I. I remember that.
Rod Ryan
With that, with those numbers you would.
Mo
Stadiums.
Rod Ryan
It's a Beyonce, Taylor Swift. It's multiple nights in stadiums and cities.
Alex
Yeah, I would imagine if, if those
Rod Ryan
numbers are right and if he's really
Mo
that big or if his tickets are too expensive, he's.
Alex
Or maybe his stream can't.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
All right. Call for those tickets. That's enough. I'm sorry. I get caught up in these things. Houston's rock.
Mo
Houston's alternative and home of the Ro Ryan Morning Show. 945 the buzz.

Rod Ryan
Oh yeah. I'll send everything I got. I didn't tell that guy was taking his son yesterday to his first concert.
Mo
I wanted to melt my face off.
Rod Ryan
If you win pit passes from the Rod Ryan show, you gotta take a picture in the pit and send it to us, Justin. Oh, we will.
Mo
Who are you gonna take?
Rod Ryan
Don't you lie to me. I'm probably gonna take my daughter. How old is she's? She's 16. She's a little rocker. A rocker?
Mo
Is she single? Cuz that guy yesterday is going to bring his kid. Maybe they could.
Rod Ryan
He was nine?
Mo
I thought he was 14.
Rod Ryan
Oh, I thought he was younger than that. I don't remember. I just threw that number off. I think he was nine. I'm so stoked. This is awesome.
Mo
Justin, we're so excited for you. We've never hooked your 16 year old up with 9 year old. Okay.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. We have an arranged marriage. We have an arranged rock and roll marriage.
Mo
Rock on. Stay rock hard when she's of age.
Rod Ryan
Congratulations. Questions, Justin, take. I want to see A picture of you guys down there, though. Okay. Oh, I'll send you some. This is awesome. This is awesome.
Mo
Thanks for hanging out.
Rod Ryan
Have a great day, man. All right, let's go. Alex online. It's Alex online. 94. 5 the Buzz. What you doing today?
Alex
All right, today's AOL is called TV bosses. And you're going to try and see how many of these TV bosses you can name just by looking at. I got all but one.
Mo
Wow.
Rod Ryan
Essentially playing the game who's the boss?
Alex
Essentially.
Mo
Get it. I got it.
Rod Ryan
You guys know that show?
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
Tony Danza.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
Who's the boss? Yeah, but.
Alex
Yeah, go check it out. Grey's Anatomy. Not familiar with Gray's Anatomy?
Rod Ryan
No. I don't know who the boss is. A head doctor.
Alex
Yeah. Look, she looks very doctor.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. The head doctor would be the head of medicine.
Alex
I believe we would be on the Gray's Anatomy. I don't know.
Mo
Noted.
Alex
Head of gray.
Rod Ryan
I never watched that. What's the other one that just came back? The the Doctor show.
Alex
The pit.
Rod Ryan
No, Scrubs. Scrubs.
Alex
I watch Scrubs. I'm pretty much a doctor now.
Rod Ryan
Is the guy we. We run a drop on this show. He's in some Scorsese movies and he's like, good morning, Reasons why I drink. Is he the boss? That older doctor? The kind of kind of jack.
Alex
Dr. Kelso and Dr. Cox? I think Dr. Kelso was the older guy. Dr. Was the boss, but he wasn't the boss boss. Dr. Kelso was the overall boss.
Rod Ryan
I think I'm more confused than when before I asked the question.
Alex
I don't know how medicine works, man. I don't understand doctors. Okay. But go check it out. See if you can name all the bosses. The world famous ride. Riding tripage. The buzz.com stuck at night 10.
Rod Ryan
We're going to do this trip with you all away. Rod Ryan on 945 the Buzz. 94. 5 the Buzz. Good morning Rod Ryan show. That's Papa Roach and no apologies. Mo's got metal hailstorm tickets she's going to give away on Mo the show. We'll get into that in about 10 minutes or so. Well, we'll at least start getting you thinking about Mo the show and a question. And I know she's already kind of working on all of that. I brought up something. When we were talking about Ditch Day, somebody sent me an email and requested name tags. Now everybody's wearing. Well, not Everybody. Everybody but 144 of you. I think that's the number of shirts we're bringing. We'll be wearing a Ditch Day shirt. There's a bunch of names and drawn penises and stuff all over them. So, yeah, I guess your name's not on that shirt. Somebody suggested name tags for people so that we know all these different people that you hear about on the show. Mundo says he brings name tags every year. Where's my man? Brother Ron? I bring name tags to Ditch Day every year. I will bring some again. I will also bring some extra Sharpies. I usually leave them on the Gravy Gang table and anyone can help themselves. See y' all on Friday. Mundo is the one guy that doesn't need a name tag. Like, he's the guy that. I think everybody knows that. If you don't, that means you didn't go look at Alex's six picks this week. On Tuesday, Mundo was the guy that was in Chicago and he was holding new Gravy Gang flag and he gets on the, he gets on the wrestling matches and all of that stuff. Yeah, he's always had all these on the map. So he said that he brings name tags. I, I didn't know that. I, I'm today's years old. Years old that I found out that he brings name tags out there. So.
Mo
Thank you.
Rod Ryan
All right. Name tags, they'll be there. T shirts. Got to get there early. We kind of ran through all the special guests. But I'm so excited that Reverend Butter is going to be coming and hanging out out with us. He's going to be doing a live carving out there. Chainsaw ice carving while we're out there. You kidding me? I'm not kidding you. This morning. Early. Early. I wanted to just check in with my people. Mo. What's a single person luxury that people in a relationship that you completely miss out on? What's a single person luxury that comes to mind? You love your situation. You love your husband. I'll answer for you. You love the kids.
Mo
Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to think of.
Rod Ryan
But before all of that, I don't
Mo
know, I might be an anomaly because I still kind of do it.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, you do.
Mo
I know, but that's what he married.
Rod Ryan
But it's just like, you know what you're getting into. I'm still doing girls weekends.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
I'm still going to Vegas with my, with my little Phillies.
Mo
Here's what we're having, having for dinner. Eat it or don't. And if you don't like it, I hope you choke on it. No, I'm just kidding. Not really.
Alex
That's a little much.
Rod Ryan
You've been with Emma so long, y'
Mo
all are basically the same person.
Rod Ryan
I don't.
Alex
Yeah, we kind of are.
Rod Ryan
Like, you don't even remember what it's like to put a piece of chocolate cake in the fridge and just know that it's gonna be there. No, I do know that one, two, or three days from now, she wouldn't eat that.
Alex
She would not text me and ask me if she could. But it would be shows.
Rod Ryan
It would be shows because, like, somebody wrote that out.
Mo
What'd they say?
Rod Ryan
Knowing that a piece of chocolate cake you left in the fridge will be there whenever you want it.
Mo
That's hilarious.
Rod Ryan
I mean, that's the kind of things that the people are talking about on our Facebook page. Not having to apologize for anything ever. Like, wow, geez. Yeah. Karen says knowing your food inventory at Evan at any given moment in time, a lot of food stuff.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
When you're single, it's like food came to mind for a lot of people. I was surprised that was the first thing. The first thing I thought of was just never having to, like, ask about binging a TV show. You can just watch it whenever you want. My sister, single, just talking to her the other day, she's watching Game of Thrones. She didn't have to ask anybody, like, hey, hey, you want to watch Game of Thrones?
Mo
Or hey, is it okay if I watch the next episode without you?
Rod Ryan
Correct. Yeah. That's funny that on. That was while I was married and my then wife wanted to go to bed. I'm like, we have an episode. Did you see how that ended? What do you mean you're going to bed?
Mo
That's funny.
Rod Ryan
Like, that was pre. Kid, you're staying up late. You're up until 1 o' clock in the morning. Sounds like insane to me. But the way the Game of Thrones, some of them ended. And then she said, okay, I'm going to bed. No, sit your ass. Sit your ass. I don't care if you fall asleep, that's on you. We're watching the next one.
Alex
You can figure that out on your own time and catch up then.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. No. Had to watch them together.
Mo
That's precious.
Alex
I just have shows I watch on my own now.
Mo
And that's.
Alex
That's like the loneliest feeling because I can't talk to anybody.
Mo
The loneliest feeling.
Alex
Do you want to talk about friends and neighbors?
Rod Ryan
No.
Alex
You didn't watch?
Mo
No. Sorry.
Rod Ryan
When asking our friends, you guys, about single person luxuries. It's food and it's tv.
Mo
It's a real struggle.
Rod Ryan
I mean, there's a couple people talking about hooking up and stuff, but I mean, you know, there's never having to compromise. You don't have to discuss plans. Sleep.
Mo
Yeah. Napping. I get that. I used to love napping.
Rod Ryan
Like, you could be chilly. You just sleep whenever you want. He's got the life, this guy. Being able to do absolutely nothing all weekend without having to explain it to anyone. That sounds wonderful. Why would anybody be in a relationship?
Mo
Goodbye.
Rod Ryan
Starfishing in bed. Starfish. Full on starfish. You're taking up the whole. I don't know.
Mo
My husband loves a good starfish. Babe, what are you doing?
Rod Ryan
And then the oddest comment. Just being able to microwave a sweet potato. Whatever you want.
Mo
Why can't you do that when you're in a relationship?
Rod Ryan
I don't know. I think you're allowed. Are you with somebody that just does not want that?
Mo
I never gets mad when I do that.
Rod Ryan
Just get home from work pantsless, watching WWE raw. Raw. Eating double stuffed Oreos.
Mo
Do you?
Rod Ryan
All right, that's what our. Our single friends on Facebook are talking about. Or. Or they might not be single now. They're talking about the things they miss.
Mo
They miss doing that they miss.
Rod Ryan
I don't know.
Mo
Find someone that doesn't care what you do.
Rod Ryan
What is that single person luxury that people in relationships completely miss out on? That's what's been going on running on Facebook all morning long. It's really, really, really funny. Okay, we're gonna do MOW the show coming up. And this is what we're gonna give away those baby metal Hailstorm tickets. Hey, could you have a question on the flip of this break, please?
Mo
I'll do my best, miss.
Rod Ryan
I do whatever I want whenever I want. I eat whatever I want whenever I want. No sitting down for supper. Moe's already up.
Mo
Let's go.
Rod Ryan
You guys get whatever you want. I've already eaten.

Alex

Rod Ryan
Kids are singing it, like right before they go into school. So funny to me.
Mo
Yeah, yeah, she came on the radio.
Rod Ryan
Well, I. I don't remember specifically that video, but I. I know that it made my day when I got it. Cuz I laugh at every single one of them. I laugh seeing young kids singing Free Beer Friday to me. Like, that's. That's my psycho thing. That's funny to me. Yeah, okay. That's very funny to me. Okay. All right, Cindy, you. Thank you, guys. Congratulations. Yeah, Janice was the name of the woman in that video. And this is the number one song in the country, Janice St. Fu from Drake. Nobody is prepared. The people that kind of like live in this space, they like Drake. They don't like Drake. Nobody is prepared to say that Drake is bigger than Michael Jackson.
Mo
You didn't get any.
Rod Ryan
No, I got nobody. That's saying, Rod, the numbers don't lie. Look what you just told me. 40 some songs out of the top 100 right now. Are, you know Drake in the top 100? He's got 40 over 40 songs in there. Almost 50. Nobody's prepared to say that Drake's bigger than Michael Jackson. If I call up your shoddy right now, she picking up. You boys got. You love this. You love it. You like it. No, you don't. Yeah, I don't like it at all.
Mo
You don't like it at all?
Rod Ryan
Not at all. Like, not at all. I've heard some of the Kendrick Lamar stuff that I think is really, really good. And I've heard Drake songs that I like.
Mo
This isn't it.
Rod Ryan
This doesn't. This isn't. This isn't doing it for me, but it's not for me. And a ton of people like it. So my opinion doesn't matter for sure. Kind of crazy somehow. Three time hall of Famer, Sammy Baker Davis, Jer Jr goes for win number five tomorrow. Yeah.
Mo
Where? This is just happening too fast.
Rod Ryan
Wait a minute. Is he going for win number four tomorrow? He's going for the hall of fame. Yeah. Yeah. I had to double check that too.

Rod Ryan
Chrissy, wake up. Chrissy was on with us this morning. She won five Finger Death Punch tickets. Travis won Black Crows, Whiskey Myers tickets. Like, even talking over the music, the energy and everything, it's weird to me.
Mo
Really?
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
You like this?
Mo
I don't know if I like the song or not, but I like the feeling.
Rod Ryan
But I don't see you doing your little shoulder thing that you do.
Mo
I don't do what I want to do video.
Rod Ryan
But you do. You.
Mo
I like, want.

Mo
Fine.
Rod Ryan
There's something very, very wrong with you.
Alex
Okay.
Rod Ryan
All right. Jeremy's up next. He would never laugh at that video. He's got the non stop nooner. Pick your tickets with him in the 1 o' clock hour. We, we talked a couple of times about ditch day today. Would you want this on a ditch day?
Mo
It's a vibe.
Rod Ryan
This is not the vibe. No, this is not the vibe. I need something bit, a little more upbeat, something more. Where do you listen to this?
Alex
Making love in the car?
Rod Ryan
Making love to your husband?
Mo
No.
Rod Ryan
Is this on in the background?
Alex
When you getting in that. That mindset, bro. That great mindset.
