Open phones Friday and then Chili, put those pit tickets on Mow the show before we get out of here. There's Mo right there. Hey, what you got for Houston's headlines?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Good morning. So American and Iranian negotiators have reached some sort of draft agreement they believe can end the war. It still awaits approval from President Trump, but it has some sort of understanding about how the Strait of Hormuz would gradually open over the next 60 days. It's got a whole bunch of stuff in it and high level Iranian officials have indicated that they can accept the terms currently on the table. But the US Is like, you guys have a fractured government and I don't really know where it's going to go from here. Yesterday, Locally, I can report that all eight students who were stuck for hours on the ride in Galveston are safe. But they have quite the story to tell. Around 5:30 yesterday, firefighters received a call that the Iron Shark roller coaster on Galveston's Pleasure Pier had stopped. The kiddos on the ride were on a field trip from Houston. And you know, the news helicopters are out. The footage is wild. The ride is the tallest one on pleasure pier with 100 foot vertical lift hill. And so of course it was a sight to see. Landry's who owns the ride, said it malfunctioned. That's what it was supposed to do, where it stopped. Glad everyone is okay. Fun fact, Rod Ryan. I know that's not usually what I do. Fun facts. It's usually you. The largest denomination of a bill that's been printed over the past 80 years is 100.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, 80 years.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

80 years.

[Rod Ryan]

So those 500 bills are super old.

[Caller/Contestant]

Old.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Higher denominations were made in the late 1800s, early 1900s. They are phased out. But that could be changing because yesterday we heard from Congress that the White House is pushing to approve a new $250bill.

[Rod Ryan]

You can't have a living president on a bill. There's some rule somewhere.

[TikTok Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

This one that they're proposing has President Trump's portrait on it. The 60 year old law prohibits any living person from appearing on U.S. currency.

[Rod Ryan]

I think that I knew that was a law.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

The final call is up to Congress. We'll see what happens. TV numbers are officially in and I don't think anyone is surprised that Stranger Things was the most watched series of the 2025, 2026 TV season.

[Rod Ryan]

That's cool.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

32.9 million viewers. So you hear that number? 32 million. In second place, his and hers with 25.6 million.

[Rod Ryan]

So stranger Things by a mile.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

By a. Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Cap it now.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Like, wouldn't it have started at the end of the year?

[Rod Ryan]

No.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Data is mid September through mid April.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, when summer starts, that ends the season.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Oh, you're right.

[Rod Ryan]

Because then summer replacement series.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Okay, that makes more sense. I was like, if they're ending the year, like Stranger Things didn't really premiere until this year.

[Rod Ryan]

Right. Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Another interesting fact. Sports were not included, but if they were, Sunday Night Football would have been number one.

[Rod Ryan]

So it goes fall from the year before to summer the year after the TV season. That's the season of the TV shows.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Who do they pick to start off Sunday Night Football this year?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I don't know.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Oh, it's the Giants. Must be a big brand.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, the sports guy.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

That's such a big.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I should have known that.

[Rod Ryan]

Why would you. Why would you ask me that?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Presale today begins for Tom Morellos Power to the People festival. Have you heard about this?

[Rod Ryan]

Morello?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Morello?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. You try to get fancy with those double L's. He's the guitar player for Rage against the Machine.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

But he knows a lot of people.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, he's like an elder statesman now. He's having a birthday this weekend, too. But he can call. He can call anybody he wants.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

He called everybody.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Bruce Springsteen's gonna be there.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, that's his boy.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

They're besties.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Foo Fighters are on this list.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I was like, what the heck, boys?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Too.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

But it's only one day. Two stages in Maryland. Is that where he's from?

[Rod Ryan]

No, it's just. It's gonna be. They all hate Donald Trump.

[Radio Station Announcer]

Oh, so it's just one of those.

[Rod Ryan]

They all hate Trump.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Presale begins today. If you're interested in going to Maryland, It's. I mean, it's stacked. Pretty cool looking festival. Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, what you got?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Astros got a win last night. They beat the Rangers 5 to 1. They scored three runs in the first inning and kind of just coasted from there on out. Tonight they're gonna open up a weekend series with the brewers at Dyken Park. Kai Wei Tang is gonna be on the mound for the Strozz going up against Milwaukee's Coleman Crow. First p.710. You can listen to it on our sister Station sports talk. 790. In the NBA playoffs, the spurs bl the Thunder 11891 in Game 6 of the Western Conference finals. They're going to play a decisive game seven tomorrow night back in Oklahoma City. And in the Stanley cup playoffs, the Hurricanes and Canadiens play game five of the Western Conference finals tonight. Carolina's up three games to one in that series. And I'll start at seven o' clock and you can watch it on tnt. That is what's going on in sports.

[Rod Ryan]

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah, it's fair.

[Rod Ryan]

It's fine. I understand you have no hall of Fame appearances. You could change that. Start by winning today. But we're gonna have to. And this. And I know you're gonna forget because you're gonna be caught up in the game. But you gotta. You gotta call yourself something different. Just first, I'll probably go with my middle name.

Whoa.

[Will Lind (Musician)]

In your pocket.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. By 1980, they were almost all completely gone. Just like a pay phone. Pay to toilets. We're everywhere.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I mean, I know they're in Europe, but I didn't know they were here in the us.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

In San Francisco. Going to one when I was a little kid. And they said they did it to keep homeless people from sleeping.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Yeah, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

I would pay for that.

[Rod Ryan]

When I was in Mexico City, I had to whiz. Couldn't find a bathroom anywhere. I went, I found a Sears.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm like, okay, they gotta have a bathroom. Like, they'll see a fight. Go to the mall. I go up there and there's this little old lady sitting in front of the door. She's like, yeah, a couple pesos you can go like.

They would greet their guests when you walked in in and they would say welcome to Caesar's Palace. What was their next line?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

In Houston's headlines, American and Iranian negotiators reach some sort of draft agreement they believe can end this war, still awaits approval from President Trump. It kind of looks like the Strait of Hormuz would gradually reopen. They have a plan for reopening it from everybody backing away slowly. High level Iranian officials have indicated they can accept the terms currently on the table. But the US Is like, who are the Iranian high ranking officials?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, we don't know. It's really like we knocked out a couple of them.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Big headline this morning. It came out like 3, 3:50am the headline was, a man was rescued from the back of a garbage truck early this morning. Firefighter said he became trapped inside while a recycling dumpster was being emptied in west Houston. So sad. It does appear like now we know that he might have been sleeping in the dumpster and then got stuck in the garbage truck. Video from the scene shows Cruz carefully lifting this guy out before transferring him to a stretcher. He's alert, he's conscious. He is in a hospital for treatment. We're hoping the best for him. But the fact that someone was yelling from the back of the garbage truck was the headline this morning. And we were all just like, what the heck is going on, Rod? You know how we've talked about kiddos and how they don't know how to, like, go out and socialize? Like, they're not going to bars. They're not drinking like they used to?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

This is a thing.

[Rod Ryan]

Maybe they haven't heard this song.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Definitely haven't.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I don't think Martha Stewart is behind this, but it definitely was up on her website. It's of kind called soft socializing. Okay, I'm not joking. The cringe is so bad. But let me fill you out. They're encouraging soft socializing, starting small by opening a door for someone. Just like low pressure, accessible activities so that people try and get.

[Caller/Contestant]

We're not.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

We're not going to make it and get social. We're not going to make it.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Put your phone down. Focus on bonding. I'm not even joking.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Try looking at Socialize.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Just makes me want to puke. Steven Spielberg, rich and famous movie guy. But is he also, like, in the know, one of those guys that knows what's going on? Because there's the trailer for this new movie he has called Disclosure Day. The movie's about aliens. And he himself, Steven Spielberg, actually addresses the audience and says, I used to say to myself, wouldn't it be wonderful if all this alien stuff were true? And now I'm thinking, wouldn't it be wonderful for people to know all of it is true? So folks are like, conspiring that this movie is actually a premiere for the real announcement about the existence of aliens. Headline in the news.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm not dying. Steven Spielberg's a super smart guy. I just don't think he knows that kind of stuff.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

But if Trump was right with him,

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

he could be like, you want to know about the aliens?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Make a movie about him.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I'll tell you all about him about a Stephen.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I don't know. Now, yesterday, the speaking of Trump, the Freedom 250 concert series was making headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

You got to make sure you word it correctly.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

To Freedom 250 concert made headlines yesterday. I did not think anything of this concert. Right.

[Rod Ryan]

They made an announcement with A bunch of bands.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Who we got?

[Rod Ryan]

Martina?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Martin McBride.

[Rod Ryan]

Brett Michaels.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Brett Michaels is on here. Oh, Freedom 250.

[Rod Ryan]

Young Mc bust the move.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Oh, that's. There we go.

[Rod Ryan]

He was on there.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Nearly.

[Rod Ryan]

Vanilli was on there. Okay, we lost vanilla.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Well, listen, Freedom 250 was created by Donald Trump. He's putting on the event. The confusion may be because America 250 is the national initiative established by Congress that we've all been celebrating getting ready for. So artists thought they were signing up for a. A America 250 concert, which is non partisan, which is nonpartisan, but they actually were signing up for a Freedom 250, which is what it is.

[Rod Ryan]

So everybody kind of. Not everybody, but most of them backed out.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Backing out.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. Like I was.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

So I honestly was. Also didn't know there was a difference.

[Rod Ryan]

I didn't know that either. And obviously all the people that signed the contracts didn't know there was a difference between attorneys.

[Geico Representative]

Right.

[Rod Ryan]

Trump's concert and just an American concert. So you just had people dropping yesterday.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I. I was so confused by the headline, but now. You crazy.

[Rod Ryan]

It's so nuts.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

[Rod Ryan]

Next week is the Carolina Country Music Fest in Myrtle Beach. Beach.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

And there is a daily. You're wondering, well, why is Rod talking about a country music fest? At the festival, there's a daily AI assisted matchmaking event. Okay. Finally, for an hour a day, there's a Jack Daniels party tent. It's going to turn into a singles saloon. And if you're interested, you can sign up now. You'll be sent a questionnaire a few days before the event. AI will use it to pair people the best way possible. My question, AI, matchmaking. Is this going to become a regular thing at music festivals now? This is the first time I've ever seen anything like this. Don't you see this happening at big events now?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Why not?

[Rod Ryan]

AI matchmaking.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Let's go.

[Rod Ryan]

It's a singles event. It's. It's not like they're taking up the tent for the whole show. It's just like a part of it for one hour. The Jack Daniels tent is going to become this. Now, how many people are no shows? How many people wimp out?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Probably have to pre submit your info.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. Yeah. Because AI's got to allow you to figure out who you're going to be best matched up with. So, I mean, there's going to be some. I mean, it's AI using. Using AI for human interaction. Interaction. You got to show up. Okay? You can't just show up. Zoom. You can't zoom into the Jack Daniels tent. You got to show up to and see this person that they hook you up with. And there's no obligation at all.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

You're single, ready to mingle.

[Rod Ryan]

I just. The only reason why I'm mentioning it, it's the first I've seen of something like this. And then when you're talking about dumb Coachella next year, like what. What night is singles night? What is AI? Singles night. This is going to be a. A thing. This is absolutely going to be a thing at festivals. For sure it will be.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I mean, what. What's it doing? It's taking this questionnaire and it's comparing answers and finding people that are compatible

[Rod Ryan]

Like I don't like.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

What drugs are you on right now?

[Rod Ryan]

A.I. is going to. A.I. baby.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's not, it's not like making you an alien. It's just comparing data.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, yeah. That's all it is.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's just what any other other dating thing is gonna do.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

If you hire a matchmaker, it's what they're gonna do. If you get on Tinder, it's what you yourself are gonna do.

[Rod Ryan]

Correct. It'll be interesting to see if they do a follow up on this.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Maybe someone calls them.

[Rod Ryan]

It still awaits approvals from President Trump, but there's some sort of understanding in there that would see the Strait of Hormuz gradually reopening over a 60 day period. High level Iranian officials have indicated they can accept the terms currently on the table. But the US is like, wait, who is the Iranian official? Because you know the government's.

[Caller/Contestant]

[Rod Ryan]

I think we blew a couple.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Around 5:30 yesterday, firefighters received a call that the Iron Shark roller coaster on Galveston's Pleasure Pier had stopped the kiddos

[Rod Ryan]

on the ride before this ride.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

No, a ride like this.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

That's what happened to these kids.

[Rod Ryan]

And it stopped. Okay.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Then what?

[Rod Ryan]

35 minutes too long. Fixes itself or somewhere. And then we went through the ride and they're like, good news because you got inconvenience. We're going to let you ride again for free. You're so mad. I had to ride it twice back to back. Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

All right. But everybody's okay.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Everyone's all right. Fun fact, the largest denomination of bill that's been printed over the past 80 years is $100. Higher denominations did exist in the late 1800s and early 1900s, but they were phased out. That could be changing. The White House is pushing Congress to approve a new $250 bill.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

You know, the 250th anniversary, a lot of stuff is happening. The thing is, Donald Trump's portrait is on this bill. And there is a 160 year old law that prohibits any living person from appearing on US currency. So when this was kind of rolled out yesterday, people were like, he loves

[Rod Ryan]

his face and name on things. He does love that.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I mean, nobody can deny that he's changed currency before. He stopped the pennies.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, that was to save money.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

But then now we're going to make another bill. It's going to cost money.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. I don't know that this will get passed.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It has. The final call is up to Congress.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

I hate to be that guy, but there are other things to worry about.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Right, Right. Like television. Did you see these TV numbers that are officially in.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

The end of the TV season, if you will, is up. And Stranger Things was the most watched series of the 2024, 2026 season.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. It was the finale.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

32.9 million viewers, Rod. Okay. 32.9 million. In second place, 25.6 million with a show called his and Hers Crazy Wide Gap, Good for Stranger Things. And then last but not least, Tom Morello. Power to the people festival. He has some famous friends, doesn't he?

[Rod Ryan]

Tom Morello is really the guy that has every single person and rock star in his on speed dial. He's like, hey, become that guy that he can call anybody and say, hey, I need you here. And he did all the way up to Bruce Springsteen, who you know, he's super pals with and played with. He can get anybody he wants. So he's got a one off concert coming up.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's a festival situation. Two stages on a Saturday in Maryland, Lind, but Foo Fighters, Dave Matthews, Bruce Springsteen, on this list I see Dropkick Murphy's Cypress Hill, Random. I don't know. Pretty cool. The pre sale starts today, which is why folks are talking about this awesome headline. Yeah, those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, Alex, take it away.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

The Astros got a win last night. They beat the Rangers 5 to 1. They scored three runs in the first inning and kind of just coasted from there there. Tonight they're going to open up in series with the brewers at Dyken Park Highway. Tang, you'll be on the mound for the stro going up against Milwaukee's Coleman Crow. First pitches at 7:10. You can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk 790. In the NBA playoffs, the spurs blew out the Thunder 11891 in Game 6 of the Western Conference finals. They're going to play a decisive game seven tomorrow night in Oklahoma City. And in the Stanley cup playoffs, the Hurricanes and Canadians are going to play game five of the Western Conference finals tonight night that'll start at 7 o' clock and you can watch it on TNT. That is what's going on in sports.

Y' all have a good weekend, guys. You too, have. Have a great weekend. Crystal didn't noon yet. I'm kidding. I'm having a good time today.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I am having real highly anticipated afternoon.

[Rod Ryan]

I am enjoying spending this morning with you guys. I'm thinking I'm gonna be a little happier, though, when it hits noon and I get to party with you guys out at ditch day. We'll be out at Cactus Cove. Shined down is a new album out today. They've released five singles from it. That's just kind of the world we live in, you know, before maybe you'd release a single and then you would get the album shortly after. They got to be four. I know. They're four. Four. They might be five into this new album. It's entitled Eight. It is their eighth studio album. Their debut came out in 2003. So from 2003 to 2026, eight albums. I'm good with that. MO One of my favorite bands. Yeah, I want a new album every two, two and a half years, three years. You know what I mean? Like, I'm good with that. I don't need nine albums released on the same day. Drake.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

It's way too much.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

He's doing okay.

[Rod Ryan]

He's got three out there right now. Good for him. Shined Down's eighth album is out today. Paul McCartney has an album out today. It's his 20th solo album.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

So that's not counting what he's put out with the band Wings. And that's not Counting the Beatles, 20 solo albums for Sir Paul McCartney. His guest is Rich Gringo Star. I told you they found a tape of John. Yeah. And they used like AI to kind of separate.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I mean, you know that song is on this new album.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it was like a crappy recording of John and they were able to go in there and clean it and make it really good. And they made a song out of it. So they've got the. They've got this on Paul's album.

[Caller/Contestant]

Now.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know what the total is. Somebody would know this.

[Caller/Contestant]

There's.

[Rod Ryan]

What is there? Nine Beatles albums, 10. I don't know the. I don't know the answer. I don't know how many Wings albums there are. But where I'm going is. Willie Nelson today is releasing his 79th solo album. So do that math. When was the first one? When was the first one? And then figure out. I mean, this guy puts out an album every year. 79 albums for Willie Nelson. That's unbelievable. Keanu Reeves, his band, Dog Star has an album out today. Not to be outdone, another celebrity, Kiefer Sutherland, has put out his fourth album today. It's a country album, but appreciate his honesty. He said ticket sales weren't great. I'm not gonna go out on tour. I'm gonna cancel some of his shows, refund everybody's money. I mentioned Kip Moore has an album out today. Rock God. Why would you mention Kip Moore? Because Will Lind is in the band. Yes, Hal and Dana's son Will is in the band. He's got co writing credit on a few songs. He's. He co produced something on there. He's on the album and he's in Kip Moore's touring band. Of course, Will puts out his own music and everything else, but he's in. He's on this Kip Moore album and then you can see I'm doing a long video here. Would you take a listen to something for me, please? Okay. There's another album out today. Pretty rocking. Here she comes. Violet grohl, dave grohl's daughter.

[Radio Station Announcer]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

Dave grohl's daughter has her debut cd out right now. It's called be sweet to be me.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Sounds like a poppier garbage. Like not doesn't sound like garbage. Sounds like the band garbage.

[Rod Ryan]

Sounds like a pop. Your Foo Fighters, the drums do, right?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Little grungy too. I like that.

[Rod Ryan]

She looks like a rock star. She's grown up.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

What's her name?

[Rod Ryan]

Violet.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Violet.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Violet.

[Rod Ryan]

Violet Grohl. And I Think she's just going using her name.

[Caller/Contestant]

The.

[Rod Ryan]

The album. It's her debut album. Violet Gro. Be Sweet to Me. It's out today. It sounds good. It's coming from a guy that's a huge Foo Fighter fan. But if the kid stunk, I would tell you.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

The kid stinks.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

You have to tell them when they stink. Yeah, you do.

[Rod Ryan]

It's really good. All of the music stuff on the music blog page today, links and guests. On the flip of this break, we'll hook you up with some Motley Crue tickets. Houston's rock, Houston's alternative, and the Rod Ryan morning show.

[Radio Station Announcer]

The Buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

45 the Buzz Good Morning Rod Ryan show. Got some Motley Crue tickets coming up for you. All right, so hang on to those mo. Let's check in with Alex first. Alex, what's trending?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Claude the mew is still trending. The four time Stanley cup champion passed away at the age of 60 yesterday. So we're talking about him.

[Rod Ryan]

And TMZ reported that it was a suicide. So usually when TMZ reports that, that means they. They get it, right? They don't. They get that stuff early. But this guy's a hockey legend. He's a four time Stanley cup winner, 60 years old. And he just, I want to say on Monday at the Montreal Canadiens game, they do a little ceremonial thing before the game starts and a legend of the game comes out that played with Montreal and brings a torch in. He just did that. And he had a whole place cheering for him. The only reason why I take the time to do this is because you don't know what's going on with somebody. The suicide in crisis Lifeline help is available. Night 988. Free and confidential counseling if you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis. This guy was on top of the world Monday. The place was cheering for him. You know, Sad. What else?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Love Island's trending. They announced the cast for season eight of the show. So people are talking about that this morning. And then Riot Fest is trending. The festival in Chicago announced their lineup that's going on the weekend of September 18th. But the headliners are 21 pilots, Tool, Alanis Morissette. They also got Rise against Pierce the Veil, the All American Rejects on that bill as well.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it's a good bill. It looks.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

It looks pretty solid.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Iggy Pop Morrissey. I see the format taking back Sunday.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, dude. Iggy Pop, man. Have you seen him recently?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Saw him a long time ago.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Real skinny. Always real skinny. And everything. Now he's got this, like, weird, contorted old man bod.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Skeletony.

[Rod Ryan]

And he's still not wearing a shirt on stage. And he must have had something happen to he. Look, he's having spinal issues or something. He's still out rocking. He's still out doing it.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Shirt ever, though I'd be like, what's wrong with Iggy?

[Rod Ryan]

Yes.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

So it's like, even if there is something wrong with me, I think has to not wear a shirt because it looks more like something's wrong if you are wearing.

[Rod Ryan]

He's a legend. Is he just staying at the party too long? That's my question. You know, you can go see some footage of Iggy Pop at festivals and his money's okay. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what kind of money Iggy Pop stored away back in the day. All right, well, thank you for that. What are you giving away?

[Rod Ryan]

People want to know, like, who are these people? Like, is it somebody that I hear on the radio? Is that somebody that I should. No.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Everybody should put Rod as their name.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I have Rod Ryan.

[Rod Ryan]

There is a looking at girls blog page today.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I didn't notice.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Oh, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Baby metal's perfect for this. Thank you. The anime thing, I'm not the audience for it. Okay. I think it's weird. You know, the Rosie kids are into that. They're into that.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

That's their logo.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Like, they could be on my computer.

[Rod Ryan]

They should be like anime superhero. They're kind of like anime superheroes. Rosie's gonna be playing today. I know that. They live in this space.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Rosie Demon Hunters.

[Rod Ryan]

I just think there's creepy dudes in that space. Like, even, like, with babymetal, like, as innocent as the it is as it is. I think there's a bunch of creepy dudes in the audience. Probably not all the dudes that are in the audience are creepy. I just think there's dudes that are creepy in the audience. Okay. Why would I say something like that? Because on the Lookin at Girls blog page at an anime Con, there's a girl sitting on A throne. Her feet

[Caller/Contestant]

are.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Or I just saw the picture.

[Rod Ryan]

Her feet are in an igloo cooler and some dude is ladling out cups of water and people are buying them feet water. Feet juice. Feet juice. Now, I am not generalizing everybody that goes to an Anime Con.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

No, right. You would never.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, obviously she knows feet.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Feet juice is what her sign says.

[Rod Ryan]

She knows that there are going to be dudes, that there's an audience for her feet juice. And it's just her feet marinating in a cooler and they're ladling out water. Dude's buying it.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

She's putting her foot by this guy's mouth and it's like dripping in their mouth.

[Rod Ryan]

Dust till dawn. Dust till dawn.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Quints in a movie for that.

[Rod Ryan]

It's her running. It's Salma Hayek running the. Running the tequila down her leg, down her toe, into his mouth. I'm not the target audience here.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Me either. But we have.

[Rod Ryan]

As a matter of fact, when it

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

We've got another case of beer coming up for you straight up at 9 o' clock and then open phones. We're not dealing with a like a 9 early giveaway in the 9 o' clock hour. I just want to talk to you Guys, it's just all open phones until Chili has those pit tickets to Godsmack tomorrow night. Speaking of Chili, two things on, on the Chili front here. Not all of it's good.

Chili Float floated something the other day. Yesterday, yesterday. And he said, hey man, maybe a couple of drinks in the 9 o' clock hour. I went, hang on. I jumped in like, like the mom of the show.

[Radio Station Announcer]

You really did.

[Rod Ryan]

I go, you mean to tell me you think pregaming before ditch day, you think that's a good idea? You think we need more drinks? He suggested that, you know, sometimes, sometimes 9 o' clock hour can be, you know, a little special.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Yes. Especially Friday.

[Rod Ryan]

His idea today was to have a couple of drinks before going to. I know what you're gonna be doing at noon today. Who hurt you? You used to be, you used to

[Caller/Listener]

be a fun guy.

[Rod Ryan]

That, that is reckless.

[Caller/Listener]

You used to be a fun guy.

[Rod Ryan]

He's like, dude, pre game, pre pregame. You talked about pre gaming on the radio. That is coming back.

[Caller/Listener]

You see what, I gotta work with people.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I feel bad for Jilly, you know,

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, poor Chili. I won't let him drink. I won't let him drink until noon.

[Caller/Listener]

Last week, last Friday, when you were going to your senior citizen concert with Hal.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes.

[Caller/Listener]

Y' all met at your house and y' all pregame at your house. What's different than pregnancy gaming today.

[Rod Ryan]

Today is insane.

[Caller/Listener]

You were going to get crazy over there.

[Rod Ryan]

Nobody needs to come in with their pump primed, okay? You come into this thing and you hit the ground running at noon. You don't. You do not need to pregame for a party that starts at noon.

[Caller/Listener]

That's what amateurs do, right?

[Rod Ryan]

You pregame. You pregame for a concert that starts at 9:00 clock clock p.m. then you can pregame. You do not pregame before a noon party.

[Caller/Listener]

But see, what you, you, you seem to be forgetting. See, what had happened was we woke up early. So by the time we start pregaming, it's going to be like noon.

[Rod Ryan]

Don't be doing math. Don't be doing math on the show.

[Caller/Listener]

By the time we get to stop.

[Rod Ryan]

Stop mathing.

[Caller/Listener]

By the time we get to Cactus Cove, it's going to be like happy hour time for us.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's kind of true.

[Rod Ryan]

It goes for everybody. No pregaming before. We don't need it.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, when you. What you forgot is that when you brought. At last year's end of the show before we went on vacation.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

You brought some champagne. And I think those bottles are still in the refrigerator on open.

[Rod Ryan]

What? Oh, we drank everything.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

There's no way there was champagne left behind. You're joking.

[Caller/Listener]

That. What, what do you call it? That Prosecco or whatever you call it.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I brought in some of that.

[Caller/Listener]

I think that's still in the refrigerator. So we're gonna open.

[Caller/Contestant]

Oh, gosh.

[Rod Ryan]

No.

[Caller/Contestant]

Be a man, Rod.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

[Rod Ryan]

No pregaming. We'll see everybody at noon today. Cactus Cove.

[Caller/Listener]

Put them on the table, Rod. Put them on the table.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

Houston's rocks. Houston's alternative and the Rod Ryan morning show, the Buzz 94. 5 the Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. Thank you so much for having us on. That drummer right there, Dave Grohl. His daughter got a album, has an album out today. There's a lot of album releases. We talk, I think we talked a lot about Shined Down. And Willie Nelson's got his 6,000th album out today. But Violet Grohl, we knew that she was lurking and she's gonna be the first because we know Chris Cornell's daughter, we know there's a bunch of other these kids this next wave now there's a bunch of these kids that are really talented musician, musicians. She got it together. She's got her first solo album out today. And I got a little clip on the music blog page. Actually I got the video of her first single if you want to go give that a link. Listen, I liked it. I did. I liked it. It was rocking. It wasn't heavy. It was. I thought the pace of it was good. I liked it. Go give it a listen. On the world famous Rod Ryan show blog page@the buzz.com mo one final time, Houston's headlines.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Yes, sir. So American and Iranian negotiators have reached some sort of draft agreement they believe could end the war in Iran. It still awaits approval for from President Trump. But there is some sort of understanding in this agreement that would see that the Strait of Hormuz would gradually reopen over a 60 day period. High level Iranian officials have indicated they can accept the terms currently on the table. But U.S. officials are like, wait, who are the Iranian Officials like we don't know who's in charge. It's messy. We're still waiting on an update after we saw the headline this morning. They found a man yelling for help after getting trapped in a garbage truck. That's what we heard. The man was rescued. Firefighters had to use ladder. Aerial ladder with a basket. It was dramatic. Turns out this guy was inside a recycling dumpster that was emptied into this trash. Garbage truck. Video from the scene showed the crews working through it all. I guess he told the driver that he had broken his leg, legs and she called 91 1. It was the craziest story this morning. All we know is that he's still in the hospital. Rod, you know how we've talked about kiddos, how they won't, like, go out and socialize and, like, drinking? Numbers are down because they're not socializing. And they get anxiety from, like, talking

[Rod Ryan]

to people they like that others are broken like them.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

This next thing is so cringe. Soft socializing is trending today.

[Rod Ryan]

You got any? Got anything for that? Alex,

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

please don't.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I'm not even joking when I tell you that the first bullet point on this soft socializing plan for getting out there is to start small.

[Rod Ryan]

Is it a class?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Open a door for someone? No, it's some.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know, like a tutorial.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Yes, a TED Talk. Yeah. Whatever they're listening to is that. Start by a small talking at the grocery store checkout line. Just like.

[Rod Ryan]

That's what.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's encouraging.

[Rod Ryan]

Just make eye contact, for God's sakes. Start there. People won't look you in the eye anymore.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Soft socializing. You heard it here first.

[Rod Ryan]

They teach you how to, like, do handshakes and they, like. They teach you things.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It needs to be taught.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

That's how you say hello.

[Rod Ryan]

I guess that's the story when at a point where these things now need to be taught. I mean, at some point your dad said, hey, you know how to do a good handshake, and blah, blah, blah. Look me in the eye when I talk to you, boy. But did you forget that's how my dad talked to me? You didn't have a dad. I don't know.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Sad.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. I mean, kids are just in these screens. Soft social kids are just in these screens all the time.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Let's talk about Steven Spielberg. Rich, famous movie guy. But is he also in the know when it comes to aliens? Okay, so there's a new trailer out for his new movie called Disclosure Day. It's about aliens. Steven Spielberg actually himself addresses the Audience and says. I used to say to myself, wouldn't it be wonderful if all this were true? And now I'm thinking, wouldn't it be wonderful for people to know all of this is true? All right, so it has the conspiracy theorists going, going off like, wait, does he actually know something? Because aliens are in the news. Government's talking about aliens. Is Steven Spielberg in the know?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I don't think so.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

You don't think?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I still don't think so.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

June 12, Disclosure Day hits theaters.

[Rod Ryan]

It's like saying that James Cameron knows that these big blue people are going to come on and invade our planet. How can he not be? Stop.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

All right. And lastly, the Freedom to 50 concert series made headlines yesterday. And I was very confused. Fair.

[Rod Ryan]

Everybody was confused. You're right.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Several acts originally announced for the Freedom 250 concert series are now distancing themselves. I started seeing, like, press releases being put out by artists.

[Rod Ryan]

How did everybody sign on the dotted line and not know what they were signing up for?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

You got guys that do that. Right, right.

[Rod Ryan]

But. But when you talk about the two organizations here, it's.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's a little murky. Yes, I understand.

[Rod Ryan]

So try to. So try to make this make make sense.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Freedom 250, created by Donald Trump, is putting on the event, this concert that all these people signed up for. The confusion may be because America 250 is the national nonpartisan initiative established by Congress to plan and coordinate all of these official 250th anniversary of the United States. That's America 250.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, so what the people like, like Bret Michaels and Martina McBride, young MC

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Milli Vanilli, what they signed up for Freedom 250 and they don't want to

[Rod Ryan]

be a part of a partisan concert

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

is what they're saying.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

So, like, if you, if you book somebody to play the superb owl halftime show, that maybe ignites you to watch.

[Rod Ryan]

Watched it.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's just.

[Rod Ryan]

It's the. It's the world we live in. Everybody is so polarizing that I don't get myself.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I don't know the logistics of it all, but I was really confused what was happening yesterday. And that's. That's what it was.

[Rod Ryan]

But you just talked about in the last hour, Tom Morello, who's my favorite guitar player, okay. He hates Donald Trump. He's still my favorite guitar player.

[Caller/Contestant]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't want to hate anybody. Okay. Okay. He's got the Foo Fighters. He's got, you know, Bruce Springsteen. Nobody gives those guys a hard time for doing that. But they're worried about the hard time they're going to get if they play something that's Trump endorsed, you know, and that's the world that we're in. And I'm not saying that it's right. It's. I'm saying that it's wrong. It shouldn't be that way, but it is. It's just. It's the reality of the way, of where we are at with this. So, you know, Young MC doesn't want to take the heat. He should just take the gig. Come on. Is he playing a lot? Is Millie and. Or Vanilli. Which one's around? Only one of them's around.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Those are Houston's headlines, Rod.

[Rod Ryan]

What a mess.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Oh, that was supposed to be the USA's music part.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, hey, let that play for a second.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It feels good. I like it at this volume.

[Rod Ryan]

You know what? Ah, the gold. But after me, me, after me. Talking about partisan.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

This bring us all together is non partisan.

[Rod Ryan]

Bring us all together. Well, I don't know about that.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

This one,

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know. Leonard Skynyrd. They might be partisan.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Well, this is. This is the dubstep version, the moonlight version.

[Caller/Contestant]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, let's go.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

The Astros got a win last night. They beat the Rangers for 5 to 1. They scored three runs in the first inning and kind of just coasted from there on out. Tonight, they're going to open up a weekend series with the brewers at Dyken Park. Kai Way Tang will be on the mound for the Strokes, going up against Milwaukee's Coleman Crow. First pitches at 7:10. You can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk790. In the NBA playoffs, the spurs blew out the Thunder 11891 in Game 6 of the Western Conference finals. They're going to play a decisive game seven tomorrow night in Oklahoma City. And then the Stanley cup playoffs. The Hurricane Canes and Canadians are going to play game five of the Western Conference finals. Carolina's up 3:1 in that series right now. That's going to start at 7 o' clock and you can watch it on TNT. That is what's going on in sports.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. On this show, everyone's invited everyone to stay with us. Chili did find. He claims that we have booze left over from Christmas. From Christmas. Perception and mimosas. Mimosas.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

It's this thing.

[Rod Ryan]

I want to go on record saying this is a bad idea.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I want to go on record saying I don't care.

[Rod Ryan]

I want to be land of the free, home of the brave. I want it documented that I think it's a bad idea those bottles get open in the 9 o' clock hour.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I think you're being kind of a narc.

[Rod Ryan]

I am on record right.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Right now.

[Rod Ryan]

It's a horrible idea. Houston's rock.

[Radio Station Announcer]

Houston's alternative and home of the Rod ryan Morning Show. 945 the buzz.

[Free Beer Friday Announcer]

Friday. You got the free bear Friday. Free bear Friday. And free bear Friday, you got a free bear Friday.

[Rod Ryan]

Good morning, Rod Ryan show.

[Caller/Contestant]

Morning, brother Rod.

[Rod Ryan]

Who's this?

[Caller/Contestant]

This is Craig.

[Rod Ryan]

You're caller number 10. Woohoo. Now look, you just scored yourself a case of beer. If you want to start drinking this right away, that's fine with you. You do you.

[Caller/Contestant]

Bro.

[Rod Ryan]

I can't control anybody body.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Anybody.

[Rod Ryan]

Really? Clearly I can't control anybody trying to. Craig, you won the. You got the.

[Caller/Contestant]

The beer.

[Rod Ryan]

Congratulations.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Where are you from?

[Rod Ryan]

I'm from Cyprus.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Nice.

[Rod Ryan]

Thanks for hanging out with us, Craig, in Cyprus. Congratulations. The fourth and final case of beer is yours. Thanks for listening, Br.

[Caller/Contestant]

Awesome.

[Rod Ryan]

Thank you.

[Caller/Contestant]

No problem. He didn't. He did.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

He did.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

He did.

[Rod Ryan]

He did.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

He's all yours.

[Caller/Contestant]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

Mario says you got to check the expiration on that orange juice drink.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

I said the same thing. No one listen.

[Rod Ryan]

Go bad.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's chunky.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

It doesn't go bad.

[Rod Ryan]

It's called pulp. My brother in law made the mistake of drinking old orange juice and his stomach really got messed up. Have a great weekend.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Thank you for being a good human.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Be built different, dude. I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

I sure the prco is fine.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Prao is fine. That orange mimosa stuff is not fine.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I think you sound like a coward.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Drink it.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I will.

[Rod Ryan]

Daniel.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Daniel says pour me some.

[Rod Ryan]

Daniel said emergency poll question. Should we let Chili pregame?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

No, there's no poll.

[Rod Ryan]

We don't need a poll.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

We're here.

[Rod Ryan]

It's a bad idea to pregame for a party that's not. Starts at 12 o'.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Clock.

[Rod Ryan]

Not the case, guys. We're gonna be over at Cactus Cove and we'll have plenty of time for drinks. 3333 West 11th Street. Chili's bringing the shirts. Thank you, Deb and everybody over at bmp. Did you just open that?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Yeah. I'm not drinking this.

[Rod Ryan]

I want to go on record. Am I on the record yet? Do I need to say it again?

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Sorry. Is someone talking right now? Is the record go, Alex.

[Rod Ryan]

Has it been etched? Thank you. In the record.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's mimosa.

[Rod Ryan]

What's the. There's got to be an expiration date on that. Delicious.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It tastes fine.

[Caller/Contestant]

Fantastic.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's chunky.

[Rod Ryan]

No, I'm totally disgusted by it is so gross.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah, if you're coward.

[Rod Ryan]

Chili came to me yesterday. Well, he came to the group and said, hey. Oh my gosh, are we. Are we up for pregaming? Maybe like, you know, a couple of drinks in the 9 o' clock hour way we looked at him and I. I looked at him like he was talking in a. In a native, like a different language, and I said, what's the matter with you? There he is. There he is.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Hey, Chil.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Let me pour you mimosa. Babe, you. There you go.

[Caller/Listener]

Disappoint me.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

A chunky mimosa.

[Caller/Listener]

You used to work at a country station.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

There you go.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Is tell me if it tastes good.

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, so good.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

You're lying.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Hey, Alex.

[Caller/Listener]

Salutation.

[Caller/Contestant]

Cheers, buddy.

[Rod Ryan]

It's a bad idea. Bad idea.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Sounds like a bunch of squares in this room.

[Rod Ryan]

Wait, open phones Friday. Open phones Friday? More like open phones fry. Yay. And I know I'm not gonna get any help from Josh Tree. He's gonna say, let them drink. I know he's gonna. Josh. Yeah, yeah.

[Caller/Contestant]

Let him drink.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

They're yours. Yeah, bro, you're in charge of them.

[Caller/Contestant]

Poll question over. Let him drink.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's not bad, Josh. It's chunky.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

It's not.

[Rod Ryan]

Not. Do they not have enough liquor at Cactus Cove for you guys?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

You brought it.

[Caller/Contestant]

I hope so, because I will be getting up out of work at around 11 and then I'll be pregaming and then going up there to go.

[Rod Ryan]

Nobody needs the pregame before today.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Or they might.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

All right.

[Caller/Contestant]

I think Greg is already pretty gaming.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, God, I'm sure he is. All right. Thanks, bro. Thank you. I'll see you later today.

[Caller/Listener]

I mean, it's the only right thing to do. I mean, Daisy and Dallas Daniel drive in for this? Yeah. If they're willing to sacrifice four hour drive to come hang out with us, I'm willing to sacrifice my body spitting

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

in their face by not.

[Rod Ryan]

Those two things that you just said have nothing to do with one another.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Think they go perfectly hand in hand.

[Caller/Listener]

Rod, you used to be an American.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

Now you're just a Canadian.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I don't know if you ever mo's drinking it.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's not bad. I thought.

[Caller/Listener]

I'm pretty sure you've had worse stuff in your mouth, girl.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

It's chunky. I was very turned out by it.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

What do you mean by that?

[Rod Ryan]

All right.

[Caller/Listener]

Sloppy toffee. Coming up.

[Rod Ryan]

All right.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Cheers.

[Rod Ryan]

Chili. Are we doing open phones or we just drinking? Dude, answer the phone. All right, open phones Friday, he's let him fill up and then he's going to go back and get these phones calls on for us.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

I do have to take a break. Oh, boy. All right, I'll take a small one. 77-132-125945 if you want to get on for open phones. Houston's Rock.

[Radio Station Announcer]

Houston's alternative and home of the Rod ryan Morning Show. 94. 5 the buzz.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah. Hey, Alex, I'm in the majority on this.

[Rod Ryan]

You are in the majority of the show on this.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

You are the square.

[Caller/Contestant]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

What are you doing?

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Today's aol. You're going to see how well you understand labels on medicine. So if it told you to take with food, does that mean that the medicine would taste bad otherwise, then it would help prevent stomach irritation or that it works faster?

[Rod Ryan]

I imagine it's a stomach irritation thing.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

That is correct.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, good.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Everybody would know that.

[Rod Ryan]

Geez, as a dad, I feel like I should know this.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Do not exceed six tablets in 24 hours means six tablets at once is okay. You should never take more than six tablets a day or a double dose is safe.

[Rod Ryan]

Never more than six a day. God, I hope I'm right. Cheese.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

I think six tablets at once would be. No, you just can't do it again. Load up all once and you're good. We'll go check it out. See if you know how to read labels correctly at the Lip Rod Ryan show page of the Buzz Dot com.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, back to the phones. You're in luck. It's open phones Friday. Hey, last week he got through again last week. We talked to Sarge. Camp Hope Rugby. Sarge, good morning.

[Caller/Contestant]

Good morning.

[Rod Ryan]

That was so cool that that girl won those tickets to the concert.

Oh, my God. My little.

[Caller/Contestant]

My little niece is going to that concert. And my daughter did that for me. I took her to a Metallica concert when she was seven.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Caller/Contestant]

And she's bringing me to the Sphere.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, my gosh.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Stop. Okay, so what? He's referring to shelby in the 8 o' clock hour, won Motley Crew tickets and told us she's going to take her dad to the show coming up in the woodlands on September 11th. Because her dad took her when she was a child.

[Rod Ryan]

Seven. When she was seven. I remember the call. So you're doing the same thing. David, that's amazing.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

So cool.

[Rod Ryan]

[Caller/Contestant]

[Rod Ryan]

You know what you're doing, Roland, you

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

can't tell us about her.

[Rod Ryan]

You can't start by saying, hey, I'm not trying to start anything. But what.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Tell us, Rol.

[Rod Ryan]

But my wife's the best.

[Caller/Contestant]

I mean, they gave me the best 33rd birthday that they could possibly give me on Sunday, and I got to give them a shout out for that. So thank them so much. I love them so much.

[Caller/Listener]

So I wanted to talk about my kid. Yesterday was his birthday. He's turned 19. He graduated last week, and he was shot in a Rose raid. Accident or incident back in October? It went through like he was driving. There was three other kids in the vehicle, but it went through in. Into his ankle. The bullet's still there.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, my God.

[Caller/Listener]

It's been such a crazy, like, few months, but I'm so proud of that kid.

[Rod Ryan]

I just.

[Caller/Listener]

I wanted him to hear it on the radio.

[Mo (News/Headlines Anchor)]

Well, what's his name? Name.

[Caller/Listener]

His name is Dylan.

[Caller/Contestant]

Stuck Dylan.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, is the bullet going to remain in his leg?

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, we went to several different. Like, I had to get multiple opinions, and they said just the way the ankles, like, the anatomy of it, everything's so tight. So it's more risky to go in there and try to take it out. You know, you have arteries and things like that. So, I mean, they don't. They don't really expect it to travel to too much, but it could later in life. But I'm. I mean, two weeks after he was shot, he was out there working like, he's amazing.

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, badass party story. Yeah. Badass party store. You're sitting around the campfire and some guy starts playing Kumbaya and like, no, no, look at my ankle. Okay.

[Alex (Sports Reporter)]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

The coolest guy at every campfire. Wow. All right, Sherry. Thank you. Shout out. We hope he's doing good. Sounds like he's doing good. That. That's it.
