[Mo]

Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, what you got?

[Sports and News Reporter]

Rockets got a win last night. They got by the Wizards 123 to 118. Alper and Shingoon had 32 points of the night to lead all players in scoring. The rockets are now 38 and 22 on the season. They're gonna have a couple of days off before playing the warriors on Thursday. In football, the Texans made some offseason moves yesterday. They traded right tackle Titus Howard to the Browns for a fifth round pick. And then they got running back David Montgomery from the Lions in exchange for offensive lineman Juice Scruggs and two draft picks. And seventh rounder Montgomery had 2500 yards and 33 touchdowns in his three seasons with the Lions and should add a lot to the Texans backfield this next season when paired with Woody Marks and Nick Chubb in baseball and spring training, the Astros played the Nationals to a three to three tie yesterday. They're going to have a day off before playing the Orioles tomorrow afternoon. That's what's going on in sports.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, thank you very much. Ready for me?

[Sports and News Reporter]

Yep.

[Rod Ryan]

All right,

Tortured 10. Coming up at 8. 20945 the buzz. Metallica's got the world talking. Adding more shows to the sphere. I looked at the dates. All of that world tour stuff is before they head to the sphere. Oh, they are wide open Once they start at the Sphere, it appears that they're pretty wide open next month. Let's see, this is January, it's March already.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Hu.

[Rod Ryan]

So starting in May, the beginning of May, like Greece, Poland, Switzerland, Germany, Italy. I mean Scotland. This is a world band. Right? So they wrap up the world part of their tour and then it looks like it's, hey, come see us. You come travel to us. We're done traveling. Boom. We're going to just lock down at the Sphere for a while in Las Vegas. So all the details are on the music blog page. You got to get in on these pre sales. Let me see if I'm forgetting if I'm missing anything here. Six shows to be added due to unbelievable demand. So a couple of you have been trying to get Metallica tickets. Let's see what Rocky had to say. Rocky's a fan club member, so that means he gets early access to try to buy some of these Sphere tickets.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

In Las Vegas. Logged on for fan club pre sale yesterday. Two day ticket. That was all that.

[Mo]

What they were offering today with a hotel package situation.

[Rod Ryan]

That's all that they're offering.

Okay.

No repeat. And you said they were playing Thursday and Saturdays?

Yes.

[Mo]

Oh, crap. So that's Thursday night. That's three nights in a hotel, right?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. That's like working on Wednesday then heading over there. Yeah. Logged on for fan club presale yesterday. Two day ticket. I was number 419,000 in line. Rod, you read that correctly. That pre sale sold out before I could get them another presale access I have today. Wish me luck. You're allowed to buy four tickets. I only need three. Love the show. Oh, he wanted to know if I wanted one of those tickets. I. I can't go, dude. I appreciate it though.

[Mo]

That's so sweet.

[Rod Ryan]

Said he's been listening since the beginning. Thanks for all you do. Also, if you get. If you're lucky enough to get tickets, they won't allow you to sell off one of the days. It's a packaged ticket. So at this point. Dang. So first phone call today?

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Guy got in, bought the tickets. All that was available was floor. I can't imagine there's not another venue in the world besides Sphere in Vegas. He's like, brother Rod, I got Metallica tickets. He goes, bad news. I'm on the floor. Like, I'm right in front of the stage.

[Mo]

He was so excited though.

[Rod Ryan]

He kind of knew.

[Mo]

I know.

[Rod Ryan]

I. You don't want to be on the floor. You don't want to be Close to the band. You don't want to be in front of them.

[Mo]

That's not why you're going to the Sphere.

[Rod Ryan]

It's insane to get the benefits of the Sphere. I believe there's four levels. 100, 200, 300 and 400. The two times that I've been lucky enough to go, I've been 400 level. That's not where I wanted to sit. That's all I could get for the two. I went to U2 and the Eagles,

[Mo]

but they ended up being so good.

[Rod Ryan]

I went to U2 in the 400 level. I was a little bit high, but I was in the center and it was just amazing. So I ended up getting, I think, like front row 400 level. And it was great. But obviously you want to be in a 300. 300, I think would be ideal.

[Mo]

Yeah, they sell it the fastest in the middle.

[Rod Ryan]

And then 200 would be the next, then 4, then 1, then floor.

[Mo]

But you're in the building, you're not interested.

[Rod Ryan]

You don't want to. I can't imagine you're going to miss out on everything. Being on the floor of the Sphere. It shouldn't even be available. But I imagine the band wants people in front of them because that gives them energy. And, you know, you do it. Listen, it's Metallica. You're super fan Metallica, you know. But it's just such an odd venue that it really doesn't matter, you know, U2 was up there. It was such a stripped down stage. There was nothing. Okay. It was just a couple little, tiny, teeny tiny amps and that. They might not have been amps on the stage. There's a drum set and the three guys that was. Didn't matter. They were like ants where I was. Because you're watching the screens. All the metallic information is there. Hey, good luck. This piece. Yeah.

[Mo]

Rocky's like, it's fun.

[Rod Ryan]

Super duper fan club guy. Well, you think somehow chasing tickets, Alex knows this. It's like you chasing the dragon.

[Mo]

What's that mean?

[Rod Ryan]

It's just so weird. Mo logs on to show she's not going to, just to see if she can get tickets. That's weird to me.

[Mo]

It's like the thrill of the chase.

[Rod Ryan]

That's weird.

[Mo]

I don't know what that is.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I was gonna ask you. What is it?

[Mo]

I don't know. I need to see a doctor.

[Rod Ryan]

Am I right?

You see her.

[Sports and News Reporter]

She absolutely does do that.

[Rod Ryan]

She just logs on.

[Sports and News Reporter]

I'm like, what are you waiting? Because I'm just Looking.

[Mo]

I'm just looking.

[Rod Ryan]

I can get tickets.

[Mo]

I want to be like my finger on the pulse, you know? I'm gonna know what's a P. People are doing.

[Sports and News Reporter]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

Creed tickets sold out. You were on that morning that creek that tickets went on sale, weren't you on?

[Mo]

Oh, I tried to buy cre tickets.

[Rod Ryan]

You tried to buy cruise tickets just to see if you could buy them.

[Mo]

I did not.

[Rod Ryan]

You weren't going to buy them. You just wanted to see if you could buy them. Yes.

[Mo]

We have a pair on the Pulse, Rod. They sold out.

[Rod Ryan]

It's a weird thing. It's a weird hobby. We have cree tickets for their sold out show. We're gonna do the torture 10. That's all coming up. You don't have to call just yet. I'll tell you when. Call Houston's rock, Houston's alternative, and the

[Sports and News Reporter]

Rod Ryan morning show, the Buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

Let's go. Lock in. Sorry, just got excited there.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Hi.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm getting ready to lock in on some torture 10. Are we gonna play? Yeah, I can't wait.

[Sports and News Reporter]

There you go.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. Tattoosday food blog page today. Oh, there's pancakes. Hey, nobody said they went and got free pancakes today. IHOP's got some deal. Is that not trending?

[Sports and News Reporter]

It was not.

[Rod Ryan]

You haven't seen it?

[Sports and News Reporter]

I saw.

[Rod Ryan]

No, because you know what it is? It's like the 10th pancake day of the year. IHOP just went too many. IHOP went completely rogue. There was already a pancake day, and they said, you know what? We're ihop. We can do whatever the flip we want. Yeah. And they came up with, hey, it's pancake day at our place.

Right.

But there is some kind of a free pancake deal, and it's all laid out for you beautifully on the food blog page today. So I don't know. Not one of you has said, hey, Brad, I got some free cakes today. But the details are on the food blog page. Not trending. What is trending?

[Sports and News Reporter]

We were just talking about Metallica. They seem to be adding some dates to their sphere shows in Las Vegas after the presale. Tickets just seemed like they were gone before anybody had had the opportunity to get them. So Metallica is trending. This morning in the Texas primary is also trending. It's election day, so people are getting

[Rod Ryan]

out and rocking the vote.

[Sports and News Reporter]

All right. Was it vote or die is what they used to say on mtv.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, let's go vote.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Go out and vote. All right. And then Chet Hanks is trending Is he trapped somewhere? Tom Hanks son Chet is stuck in Colombia. He says he does not have a U.S. passport.

[Rod Ryan]

How'd he get there?

I don't know.

[Sports and News Reporter]

If you have to, I think Colombia is kind of like, you probably get into Colombia okay and then just getting back to the U.S. they're really. They're real sticklers about how passports, I

[Mo]

think, what a dingo.

[Rod Ryan]

Why is.

[Sports and News Reporter]

I bet he's having some fun in Columbia, I would imagine.

[Rod Ryan]

Why is Colin Hanks so cool? And Chet Hanks is such a doll.

[Sports and News Reporter]

You have to have the cool kid. You have to have a party kid. And Colin was the kid that, like, did stuff, and Chad's the guy that's just like, I go to Columbia and

[Mo]

I'm going to have a passport to go to Columbia.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. But like, I feel like he had to have one to get there.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Probably. They might look the other way. If you have cash, can you see Tom Hanks give Tom Hanks money? He's shaking his head. Here's this.

[Mo]

He's not even helping him.

[Rod Ryan]

He's like, you know what?

[Mo]

You got yourself into this. Figure it out.

[Rod Ryan]

How many times in the Hank house have they said effing chat? God damn chat. You give a couple Colombian, it's Chad

[Sports and News Reporter]

again, $100 bills, they'll probably let you into Columbia, I bet. Chet Hanks.

[Rod Ryan]

What's the wife's name? What's her name?

[Sports and News Reporter]

I could just hear like, Rita Wilson.

[Rod Ryan]

Rita Wilson.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Nailed it.

[Rod Ryan]

Hey, Tom, Chat's trending. Get in here. What now? Chet's trending again.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Yeah, we hope he gets back safely, but us is trending on 945 the bus.

[Rod Ryan]

What do you mean Chet's trending again? He stuck in Columbia. Told that idiot to get a passport.

[Mo]

How does he not have a passport, though?

[Sports and News Reporter]

I could see him maybe losing it.

[Rod Ryan]

Colin. Colin has a passport. His brother has one.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Just like it's freshly renewed, too.

[Rod Ryan]

Every Hank has a passport, but Chet.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Rod Ryan]

Absolutely.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Mo]

There's only two kids.

[Rod Ryan]

Hey, Chet's trending again. Get in here.

[Sports and News Reporter]

They're like, we can't do any one.

[Rod Ryan]

Damn it, Chat.

[Sports and News Reporter]

Not again.

[Mo]

Oh, my.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, what is this? This is a very tense here. Oh, this is torture 10. Oh, yeah. There's no pre calling. I'm going to keep the phone lines. I guess the term would be. They're all on hold. They're zeroed out. I'm gonna make you wait. One more song. I've got Sublime Ensenada. Don't worry, it's a short one. It's two and a half minutes long. I'll come back, I'll release the phones, give everybody a chance to catch up. We'll give the whole whatever you think the delay is and all of that stuff. Coming up, nine people will miss out. One will win. Sold out Creed tickets, March 11th. Next week, Rodeo Houston. Torture 10 coming up in two and minutes 94. Five. The buzz. I told you, two and a half minutes. It's quick. Good morning, Rob Ryan show. Thank you for hanging with us. Every phone line, everybody in the world that is trying to call 945. The buzz right now is getting a busy signal because every phone line that I have available is on hold right now. When I release the phones, everybody will be caught up. People always try to say think. And Mo's doing a good job of asking people when they win from us. Hey, what? How are you listening to us? Why would we want to know that? Because people feel that if they're listening to the app, that they're like, behind. There is a. There is a delay. You know, that we're broadcasting on a delay. Everybody knows that in case somebody swears or slips up or says something. But then there's also an added digital delay if you're listening on the app and things like that. So right now, I've been vain camping. Everyone's caught up. Everyone's caught up. Mo, what you giving away?

[Mo]

We have sold out tickets to see Creed at Rodeo Houston. They're gonna be there March 11.

[Rod Ryan]

You weren't even gonna buy them. You were trying to get them.

[Mo]

You just wanted to see, like, if everyone else was excited. Yeah, they were.

[Rod Ryan]

And you said that when you were at the announcement party, people lost their minds.

[Mo]

Fanfare I was like, okay, yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Was it one of the loudest ones?

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

When. When the band was announced.

[Mo]

Yes. Which is always, to me, to just kind of get a. Again, a pulse of what people are feeling.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

We start to see some people, some performance come through every year. Creed was a surprise that everyone was ready for. We got sold out tickets.

[Rod Ryan]

She's been vamping. I haven't released the phones yet. Why not? Because I want to make sure that everybody's caught up.

Okay. Fair.

No.

[Mo]

Thank you for doing that.

[Rod Ryan]

Phone lines are released. Release the hounds. Here we go. Alex's favorite game, Torture 10. He loves laughing at people. He loves their misery.

The Houston Museum of Natural Science, May 8th through the 25th. I know Alex is a member there, so maybe he can get us in.

[Rod Ryan]

Rod, don't steal anything.

[Mo]

Please don't steal anything, Please. Was quicksand ever a fear of yours or was it just sinkholes?

[Rod Ryan]

Rod, you're still going with this music for this story. It's a sandstorm. But he's in the. But he's in a mud pit.

[Sports and News Reporter]

This is probably that, like this is

[Rod Ryan]

probably going through his head.

[Sports and News Reporter]

He's like, oh no.

[Mo]

You think this is what's going through his head when he's sinking in sand? It's a man in Florida. He's been missing since Valentine's Day. He was discovered a week later trapped in mud up to his shoulders. 36 year old guy. They think something was going on with a recent breakup. So he was distraught. So we don't really know if he knew what he was getting himself into when he was went to this sand facility.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

An industrial plant that produces sand.

[Rod Ryan]

Thank you.

[Mo]

Employees started looking for him after they found his car. One spotted him in a pit.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. He's in it up to his shoulders. For how long?

[Mo]

Unstable ground. Four days.

[Rod Ryan]

Four days.

[Mo]

One more day would have killed him.

[Rod Ryan]

He's pooping and peeing on himself in the mud.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

For the first day. Yeah, for the first day. He's just going dehydrated. Just everywhere.

[Mo]

Sandy water. That's like hard.

[Rod Ryan]

So like when the guys are pulling around, he's like, hey, I gotta tell you a little something here.

[Mo]

About to say something.

[Rod Ryan]

I, I, I had an accident.

[Mo]

How did it take him four days? Like, wouldn't you Been yelling, guys, when

[Rod Ryan]

you pull me out, stop. Can you wrap me up real quick? It's gonna be messy. It's gonna not. Not gonna like what you see down there.

[Mo]

They're also checking him out.

[Rod Ryan]

Mentally, he's lucky to be alive. I know I'm making jokes, but he did poop and pee. I can't in that mud. You think he'll write a book about pooping and peeing?

[Mo]

About, like, what went on Four Days in the mud.

[Rod Ryan]

Is that the title of the book he just.

[Mo]

Four Days in the mud.

[Rod Ryan]

Did you just title his book?

[Mo]

I did it for his album.

[Rod Ryan]

His tour.

[Mo]

You're welcome.

[Rod Ryan]

His book tour.

[Mo]

You're welcome, Andrew. Sad news out of Hollywood. The beloved Evil Dead Dead star Bruce Campbell shared with his fans yesterday that he has cancer, just like his character Ash Williams. He said, quote, I'm a tough old son of a bee. And he said he expects to be around a while. He didn't say what kind of cancer he has, but he said it's not curable, but it is treatable. And told fans that professionally he's gonna take a break. He's gonna focus on treatment. But he did have to cancel all of his conventions, all those con appearances that he does. He said. Said he promised to see fans soon. I hope you've had your fill of Nine Inch Nails.

[Rod Ryan]

I've not.

[Mo]

Trent Reznor dropped a little bombshell. Felt like a bombshell. They were doing a concert in Oklahoma on Friday night, and he told the crowd he isn't sure the band will tour again after their current tour wraps up. Seems kind of bold to just say that, especially in front of fans.

[Rod Ryan]

Now our ticket sales down on those. Those upcoming shows. He's probably sold out everywhere, so.

[Mo]

He also played both weekends of Coachella.

[Rod Ryan]

He's not doing it to sell tickets. He's one guy that I might believe him that he might not do Nine Inch Nails anymore ever.

[Mo]

He's got so much, like a long break.

[Rod Ryan]

He's got so many other things going on. I told you he's scoring movies.

[Mo]

And you did tell me that.

[Rod Ryan]

Winning Academy Awards. I think he's won multiple academy Awards now for scoring movies. So.

[Mo]

Okay. Follow your heart.

[Rod Ryan]

Maybe doesn't want to run around on stage anymore and sweat.

[Mo]

We'll see.

[Rod Ryan]

Just wants to sit at home in his panties on his keyboard.

[Mo]

Don't think that's what he's going to do.

[Rod Ryan]

Making songs.

[Mo]

Houston's headlines help.

[Rod Ryan]

What you got?

[Sports and News Reporter]

The Rockets got a win last night. They got by the Wizards 123 to 118. Alper and Chingoon had 32 points. The Nate lead all players in scoring. Rockets are now 38 and 22 on the season. They're gonna have a couple of days off before playing the warriors on Thursday. In football, the Texans made some off season moves yesterday. They traded right tackle Titus Howard to the Browns for a fifth round pick and then they got running back David Montgomery from the Lions in exchange for offensive lineman Juice Scruggs and two draft picks. A fourth and seventh rounder, Montgomery had 2500 yards and 33 touchdowns in his three seasons with the Lions and should add a lot the Texans backfield coming up. He's gonna be paired with Woody Marks and Nick Chubb next season down to spring training. The astronaut played the nationals to a 33 tie yesterday. They're going to have a day off before playing the Orioles tomorrow afternoon. That is what's going on in sports. Houston's rock, Houston's alternative all day and the Rod Ryan Morning Show. 94.
