Free Beer Friday Chant Leader
Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday. We got this.
Rod Ryan
Yes, sir. Wakey, wakey. Hands off those cupcakes. Let's go. We got a lot of ground to cover today on the show. Welcome aboard on free beer Friday. Beer straight up at 6, 7, 8, 9. Thank you. Specs. One time hall of famer James. What? Yeah, he popped back into our lives yesterday. He's gonna go for win number turnover this week. What an interesting week for sure in the fresh out of bed head to head Buzzaween tickets in homeroom. You're getting those on the fun fact flashback breaking Benjamin chevelle tickets at 7:28 o'. Clock. Another keyword to get your slice of the 250k that we're giving away $2,500 is going to come with that keyword. Enter it@the buzz.com you're going to get that at around 8 o'. Clock. Fly Leaf tickets at 8:20. Open phones the last hour. Oh yeah, Alex. Geez. Don't bury the headline, Alex. At 650 he's giving away another $500 with some major league baseball trivia. Third week in a row for this guy. He's out of hand. And then I got Mo over here. Mo. Wow. Lots to talk about. Houston's headlines. I see it's packed. Yes.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Good morning. So the US and Iran are on the verge of signing some sort of formal agreement as early as this weekend.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
What?
Mo (News/Headlines)
President Trump announced yesterday afternoon on Truth Social and he had canceled planned strikes against Iran last night. We all want this over points of a potential deal had been approved by all parties involved. He listed Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, the UAE and Egypt. Iran not on that list. But Trump did say that VP Vance is going to represent attend the signing, suggesting it would happen in Europe as soon as this weekend. So we'll see. Space X IPO is today. It's priced at $135 per share last night and I was telling you Rod earlier that I feel extra dumb talking about this because I have no idea what I'm talking about.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, you can't get in.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I mean I can't go buy $135 share.
Rod Ryan
You cannot. You have to be pre approved. You got a public. What's the point of being public if I can't buy it? No, no, no. You can get in after the ipo, the initial public offering.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I am the initial public, am I not?
Rod Ryan
Yeah, you can go buy it later today I think. But you can't get in on that. Like, hey, what's it gonna do?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yeah, okay. So they're trying to fundraise $75 billion by selling over 555 million shares, making it the largest initial public offering in history. Three times the size of the next largest, just for perspective.
Rod Ryan
But then the other headline is Elon Musk is set to become the first trillionaire today.
Mo (News/Headlines)
That's going to happen today.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. That's wild.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It's a lot of wild numbers. The latest trend on social media that's gone viral is tan maxing.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Yes.
Mo (News/Headlines)
The hashtag tan maxing with two X's in case you're curious, has gone viral. Where Gen Zers are going to go to extreme lengths to get darker skin.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Just doing Trump.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I mean this feels like my childhood all over again. It Means you are checking the UV index. You are wearing a little shape to get a tan tattoo. You know, like the Playboy bunny. Surely that one's back, right? This is all. What is it? Is it called secular, where it all comes right back around?
Rod Ryan
Okay, so yesterday I was being really nice to Gen Z.
Caller/Listener
Okay.
Rod Ryan
Today, yeah, not so much. Guys, this tanning stuff, it's not good.
Discover Card Announcer
It's bad.
Caller/Listener
It's.
Rod Ryan
It's bad. All that. Like, you're. When your skin turns tan, it's your skin freaking out, saying, oh, my gosh. I know I'm traumatized.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I know I enjoy trauma. The World Health Organization does classify UV radiation as the same category as smoking cigarettes and bad stuff. Okay, so be better than me. The Rock recently had a cancer scare. He found a lump in his left testicle, and he went to see a doctor, got an ultrasound, and waited around for a diagnosis. And when I say the Rock is waiting around, he did a press event for Jumanji. He was on stage making jokes, making speeches, didn't tell his wife. He didn't want to scare anybody.
Rod Ryan
Wow.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Turns out it was a false alarm. He had something called epididymitis. That's me being a doctor. Inflammation of the tube behind the testicle. He treated it with antibiotics. Thank God. But moral of the story, get your balls checked.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
The epididymis.
Rod Ryan
Oh, thanks, Alex.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Thanks. Not Diddy. Zach Brown in the headlines because he's singing the national anthem with the Marine Band on Sunday. He's obviously getting some crap about it because they're calling him whatever you want to call him. He said it's not about politics. He's like, I am a huge, massive UFC fan, and I love America, so there's that. Those are Houston's headlines.
Rod Ryan
Oh, here we go. You're bringing that back. Yeah.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Team USA is going to play their first World cup game tonight. We've got Paraguay tonight in LA. That'll kick off at 8 o'.
Rod Ryan
Clock.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
You can watch it on Fox. And I saw Paraguay's best strikers out, so that should help.
Rod Ryan
That's great.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Obviously, you want to play everybody at full strength, but unfortunate for them, fortunate for us. And then, Rod, also on the schedule today, Canada plays Bosnia, too. Okay, so if you want to check out that one, see your home country on the background.
Rod Ryan
Not my home country.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
We're gonna take soccer from them, too. In hockey, the Hurricanes beat the Golden Knights 42 in game five of the Stanley Cup Final. Carolina's up three to two in that second series. They're going to play game six Sunday night. Tonight the Astros are going to open up a weekend series with the Royals. Tatsuya Ime is going to be on the mound for the shows going up against Kansas City's Luinder Avia. First pitch is at 710. You can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk 790. And in basketball, spurs and Knicks are going to play Game 5 of the NBA Finals tomorrow night in San Antonio. New York can wrap it up with a win. That'll tip off at 7:30. You can watch it on ABC. That is what's going on in sports.
Rod Ryan
Here we go. Four hours of pain starts right now. First phone call is going to be our first beer winner today. And we will have three more after that. Straight up at 789. So beer, there's open phones. Alex in about less than an hour. He's giving away 500 bucks today on the show with some baseball trivia. It's overwhelming to try to get all this stuff in before 10 o', clock, but we will do it. We will do it. Strap yourselves in. It's going to be nothing but fun, fun, fun. Good luck on the beer. Let's do it. The most interactive show on the radio. Start now.

Rod Ryan
I'm happy to have you on the radio and I'm happy to tell you your caller 10 and you got the first case of beer today. Drake, where are you from?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Yes, sir, I'm from the League City area, lifelong listener of the show and you know, it's too early, but I'm excited to think about beer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, no.
Mo (News/Headlines)
No judgment.
Rod Ryan
If you're on our watch, it's never too early to start thinking about beers. Got a lot of. We gotta get our minds right. We got some World cup action today tonight though, right?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
Rod Ryan
Two o', clock, Canada.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Sure.
Rod Ryan
Exciting, exciting stuff. All right, Drake, on a scale. You got the beers? Dude, I Like, you, you're up, you're in homeroom. I'm curious when it comes to the World cup, your excitement, level 10. Oh, my God, I can't wait for that game tonight. Or I already started watching Mexico, Mexico city, the whole 10.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
You.
Rod Ryan
You can't believe the World Cup. It's in. It's in America or one.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
You know, I'd say I'm about a seven. I'm not a huge soccer fan, but gotta support the country. It was exciting yesterday to see Mexico get the first win.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
And, you know, I think we got a little, you know, hometown favorite energy going into the night. So I'm, I'm excited, but I'm not the biggest fan in the world.
Rod Ryan
Okay, dude.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Respect.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. I think there's a lot of people, it's like, ah, you know, what soccer. But, you know, every four years I can. I can get myself amped up for some World cup action. Drake, you're awesome, dude. Thanks for being on the show today. Enjoy your beers. Have the best weekend.

Rod Ryan
Thank you. Thank you, Drake. Busy show today. Like I said, Alex, you got 500 bucks on you. What are you doing rock walking around with 500.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
They don't trust me with the actual, actual cash. And then I have a check that's not allowed to be made out to me.
Rod Ryan
And that shirt on your back's got to be 100 bucks at least.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Anything for my country, dude. I look on the YouTube, I can write it off.
Rod Ryan
Okay, here's the difference between my guy and me. I saw that jersey on the hanger at the store and I said, this
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
is not the only one I own. I bought a custom other one that says Free Bird on the back.
Rod Ryan
I want to say that the home and away kids. I want to say that jersey was $120 and I walked away from it.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
This one was the other one. The other actually spent more on to get it customized.
Rod Ryan
It's good looking. And then here's me.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Now we have to win in a
Rod Ryan
headbangers ball T shirt that cost me 20 bucks.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah, Canada jersey is probably cheaper.
Rod Ryan
It's a good looking. It's a good looking jersey.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
These are the best unicorns we've had in the World cup since, like, I wanted it.
Rod Ryan
Bomb pops we had a while back, I wanted it. I looked at the price tag and walked away.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
See, there's some people that like, know like my country. Whatever it takes, you know, Kind guy.
Rod Ryan
I Am. All right.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Well, I like to stimulate the economy. Support the red, white and blue.
Rod Ryan
It looks good, bro. It looks good. All right. I gotta take a break. Already? But we're gonna be extremely busy. I gotta get ready for the fresh out of bed. Head to head coming up. I gotta try to stay on time because Alex, closer to around 6:55, he's got another question for you and could. Somebody's gonna win 500.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
It's gonna be a tough one. Yeah, right.
Rod Ryan
That's what you said the last two weeks. This is not a national contest. This is one of us that's listening. One of you that's listening this morning is going to win that money. So lots to do, man. Homeroom just getting started. Houston's rock.

No, there was 27 people in Goodfellas that went on to appear in the Sopranos.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I didn't know that.
Rod Ryan
That's a lot, man. This is pretty scary. Anthony Perkins. He was the original Norman Bates in the movie Psycho, the black and white Alfred Hitchcock thriller. Mo, I know you're a fan. Anthony Perkins found out. How is this even possible? Hal found out he was HIV positive when the National Enquirer printed it. Someone leaked his blood test to the National Enquirer? He read about it. That is fun. What?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
That's insane. I never heard that before. Not right. Not right as well. The Energizer bunny only exists in the USA and Canada. Everywhere else, it's the Duracell bunny. Why is that why? Duracell came up with the battery bunny concept. They trademarked it around the world. Forgot to renew their North America trademarks in 1989. Energizer jumped on it.
Hal (Financial Expert)
Somebody got fired.
Rod Ryan
That doesn't even seem fair. That's crazy. 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. All right, Mo, whatcha giving away?

Rod Ryan
Where you from?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Houston. I'm in the Santa Fe.
Rod Ryan
Okay, dude. Well, listen, I got a little fun fact flashback for you. In the early Sherlock Holmes stories, he was a bit of a party animal. What was he partying with?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Oh, man, some Eric Clapton cocaine.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, you know what? I had it queued up. You know me too well. Sherlock's Sherlock Holmes was a snowblower in those early novels. Congratulations, James. You're the winner. What are you giving them?

Nice.
Rod Ryan
Nice.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Thank you so much.
Rod Ryan
I appreciate y'. All. I appreciate you joining us the show, especially in homeroom. Great energy today. Okay, guys. Alex is looking at me like he's rich. 500 burning a hole in his pocket. He's got another major league baseball question.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Give me, you guys the money. Not mine. I wanted it, but they won't give it.
Rod Ryan
He's giving away another 500, but we gotta get through. Mo, though. What you got in Houston's headlines.
Mo (News/Headlines)
All right, let me tell you. Allegedly the US And Iran are on the verge of signing some sort of formal agreement as early as this weekend. President Trump announced yesterday afternoon on True Social that he had canceled planned strikes against Iran. That was to happen last night because the final points of this potential deal had been approved by, quote, all parties involved.
Rod Ryan
Don't break our hearts, though.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Like, I mean, I mean, it's a roller coaster. We're all on it together.
Rod Ryan
Break our hearts, get this thing signed, and let's get it over with.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It over with.
Rod Ryan
And then let's see what he said and let's see that inflation drop.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Drop like a rock. Is that exactly what he said?
Rod Ryan
I want it.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Vance is supposed to be going to Europe. It could be as soon as this weekend to attend the signing.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
We'll see.
Mo (News/Headlines)
The meteorologists are calling this time of year typical summertime weather patterns. That is at least through Saturday. Then the big change comes Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, we'll see a cold front of sorts. I'm seeing torrential downpours, flash flooding. We all know what that means. Until then, let's enjoy the highs in the low 90s, which feels like over 100. Yeah, it's kicking our butts. The wet ground, the high humidity makes our bodies feel so hot. Nearly one in three Americans are not checking their bank balances because of anxiety. I tried to avoid this headline, but it keeps popping up. It sounds so depressing. I saw it too, and it really is sad.
Rod Ryan
And I didn't send it to you. Who wants to look at that? It's like looking at your 401k.
Mo (News/Headlines)
According to US bank, they surveyed 3,000 adults. The younger adults reported the sharpest money stresses. Nearly half of Gen Z saying they're not even checking their accounts at all.
Rod Ryan
You have to.
Mo (News/Headlines)
You do.
Rod Ryan
You got to know what you can and can't spend.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Three quarters of millennials are reporting high to moderate anxiety over checking and savings balances, saying they would need $10,000 in their savings banks to avoid financial stress. Well, the majority of us have less than 5,000 in our bank accounts.
Rod Ryan
I just lost 10 grand this week.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It was for good.
Rod Ryan
God, it was for good. Alec can help you out with some money.
Mo (News/Headlines)
500 coming up soon. But first, I have to talk about Taylor Swift. Alex, I also need you for this. She was courtside at the Knicks game and folks cannot get over the fact that she was there. They're either saying she saved saved the team from the Trump curse, or she's a fake fan and needs to go away.
Rod Ryan
None of these people. None of these people were on the court playing. I don't believe in who attends the game affects the outcome.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Certain people, they're. Drake goes to your game, you're gonna lose.
Rod Ryan
I don't. I don't believe in any of that. I really don't.
Mo (News/Headlines)
People are giving her so much crap. And a lot of, like, radio announcers are also like, get away, Taylor.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Monica McNutt from the Nick's Broadcast. She's on ESPN. And she was like, well, she's not a real fan. Get out of here. It's like, there's a lot of people sitting courtside that might not be.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yeah, they're just there for the game,
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
like, but like, Ben Stiller, Chalamet Hargitay, they go to, like, they're regular Spike Le. They're regularly on the wood at the games for the Knicks.
Rod Ryan
Sh.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Was rooting for the Cavs with her boyfriend against the Knicks a couple weeks ago.
Rod Ryan
I'll say this Shalam and him and I. I think we're gonna be work buddies.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Rod Ryan
I think he's caught the eye of the Kelshi guys. Oh,
Free Beer Friday Chant Leader
yes.
Rod Ryan
Yes. So, wow.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Congratulations, Ron.
Rod Ryan
Me and Timothee Chalamet, you know, big, big Kelsey, guys.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I can't wait to have him on the show.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Has this been, like, a glow up for him?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
A little bit.
Rod Ryan
Because I feel like people thought he looked like.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
He seemed like a douche. And I feel like the last couple of years with him being a sports guy, they're like, you know what? Maybe he's cool.
Mo (News/Headlines)
He's a bro.
Rod Ryan
Because he seemed like a try hard.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Before.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
And now they're like, oh, he's one of us. He likes sports.
Mo (News/Headlines)
You know, dating a Kardashian sitting courtside.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Caller/Listener
Just like.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Just like us.
Rod Ryan
I wish he would tamp down those outfits a little, but okay, I kind of like it. Dude. He can pull it off.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Do you Available today Until the sun explodes. That's the new sublime album. Their fourth and final album. First one in 30 years with obviously Jacob Noel replacing his late father. Jacob said it was a one and done thing. He's gonna get back to his own career, but he's happy he could tie a bow on it and be done with it.
Rod Ryan
Like, I know you're delivering that very matter of factly.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I didn't know that was the situation.
Rod Ryan
That's a nuke that you just said a bomb. I didn't know that.
Caller/Listener
Yeah.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I was like, oh, they're back. Hell, yeah. I wonder how long. This is gonna go.
Rod Ryan
He said, that's it?
Free Beer Friday Chant Leader
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
The one album. And then he's got other things that he wants to do. Gotta respect that.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Was he in his own band before?
Rod Ryan
Yeah, he sure was.
Mo (News/Headlines)
What were they called? Or was it just him?
Rod Ryan
Of no. Castle something?
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Castles of no.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Couldn't he be more successful if he just keep doing the Sublime thing? Or no.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Maybe that's not what he wants to do, though.
Rod Ryan
Way more. But he probably got all Dad's money from all that Sublime money, so I think he's okay.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
But it's like, sublime isn't what you're doing. Heart is set on like, I don't want this to be me forever.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Follow your dreams, baby boy.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
This is cool that he did get
Rod Ryan
to wrap it up.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
It is the thing that other people, we get to be like, hey, remember when his son did that?
Rod Ryan
Wolfgang Van Halen won't even do one Van Halen song. This guy's doing a whole thing.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah. I don't think we can be mad about it. Answer this question, then you will win 500 courtesy of Sunday Night Baseball. What year did the Houston Astros move to the album?

Rod Ryan
You up here. Thank you, Hannah. Thank you so much.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Everyone's been so nice this morning.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, everybody seems to be in a pretty good mood. It's Friday. We just jumped around. It's like that. We just reminded people it was Friday. It's like, oh, they're playing jump around. It must be Friday. Partly Cloudy skies today. 30 chance of rain. Highs of around 92, 20 chance of rain tomorrow. And then Sunday gets a little sloppy around here. Up to a 70% chance of rain and some thunderstorms. I just took a look, looking at the back end of the Rod Ryan Show Cares online store. Today's payday for some of you. Friday. Yeah, it's Friday. My last sale in the Rod Ryan Show Cares online store was yesterday at 6:35pm thank you to Glenda Van Geffen, who went in there and spent almost 100 bucks. So I don't know what. Yeah, so I don't know what she picked out, but she spent some good money last night.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Thank you.
Rod Ryan
Shortly before that, Bradley got in there and did some shopping. Thank you. But that was again, that was like about 6 o' clock yesterday. I have no sales. So as much as I'm partying, having a good time, I want to give away. Alec gave away 500. We're giving away stock off. I do need your help in the Rod Ryan Show Cares online store. Even though we had that record day on Wednesday, boy, do we have a lot of work to do. So just noticing, no sales yet this morning. Somebody must be. Somebody must have woken up and that paycheck landed in your account, your direct deposit. So if you got paid today, you've been kind of waiting to hit us up in the Rod Ryan Show Cares online store. I would appreciate it it if you go look at our merchandise. We're not doing this as a side hustle. We're doing this to raise money for. To purchase backpacks for kids that need them here in the Houston area. So you kind of know the program, what we've been doing for the last couple of years. So I could use your help in there today. So thank you. All right. Yeah, I gotta see if I can. This is you. You know, I have a tough time talking. It's weird that I do this for a living. Thank you. Internet. There is a new word floating around on the Internet. What were you talking about? Tan maxing.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Tan maxing. Yes.
Rod Ryan
Like I can say that. And even on the Lookin At Girls blog page earlier this week, I talked about single maxing. People are single single maxing. Everything's maxing. Yeah, I can, I can, I can say that. Exhauster. Well, mulated.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Nope.
Rod Ryan
Exhauster. Well, mulated.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Ironic that Alex doesn't want to do that because that's what you do with everything.
Rod Ryan
Exhaust or well, emulated. It's just rolling off my tongue now. I. I feel like we're onto something. If you've been exhausted, overwhelmed, and over stimulated all at the same time.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Anxiety.
Rod Ryan
How's your week going, guys? Has it been a long one? Summer's Basically here, kids are going nuts. They all need braces. Whether they're yours or mine or whatever. It's. It's a million degrees outside. People are feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and over stimulated all at the same time. Now, if you tell someone that you're exhaust or overwhelmulated, chances are they're going to feel bad for you and maybe try to help you in some sort of way.
Mo (News/Headlines)
That's not true. They're going to say, yeah, me too.
Grainger Announcer
Welcome to the club.
Rod Ryan
I got a. I got a fun little video on being exhaust or well mulated on the world famous Rod Ryan show page@thebuzz.com if that, if this describes you, you're not alone. Go check out the video. It's Rod Ryan's free beer Friday. Unbelievable.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Better when I'm drunk.
Rod Ryan
On 94. 5 the buzz.
Free Beer Friday Chant Leader
94.
Rod Ryan
5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan Show. Thank you for hanging out with us today. Big day for Sublime fans. I know there's a bunch of tracks that are already available, but until the Sun Explodes is out today. That is the fourth and let me give you my MO impression, Until the sun explodes today. But from Sublime, this is their fourth and final album. Jacob Noel says that it's one and done and he wants to get back to his own career. On to the next story. Alex and I are going. What? Hang on a second. What do you mean?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Just here to report the headlines.
Rod Ryan
So she, she completely gloss boss is over that. Alex and I are like, what do you mean?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Jacob Noel literally fell to the floor.
Rod Ryan
He said that this is it.
Mo (News/Headlines)
He did.
Rod Ryan
It's so just like, just. She, she said it's the fourth and final album. Jacob Noel, son of Bradley n. Died in 1996. Died not knowing that he was super famous. Died not knowing all of those Sublime songs that we've come to love. They all became huge. Jacob Noel said, unless a child of mine wants to make another one one day, oh, this, this is the last one I'm gonna make now. He says that now. Does he mean it? He's got the right to change his mind. I'm still processing. I thought we were in for the long haul and I thought we were going to get this whole new era of Sublime music. And everything that I've heard off of this album is great. The title track, until the Sun Explodes. My gosh, it's so great. We haven't even gotten to that yet because we're still. We can't get out of Ensenada. People love it so much. I don't know. Alex Were you thinking that we were gonna have Sublime back in our lives for at least? Yeah, a couple of years.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
They were building up to this. They were working on it, and then they're like, new albums. Okay, cool. I wonder how many they'll do. Because they think it would be more than one, though.
Rod Ryan
It was a slow roll of getting to this point. You know, we've known that Jacob's been in the fold for a couple of years now, and, you know, they've done some shows. We got a chance to meet Jacob now two years ago. We met Jacob two years ago at the Rod Ryan show, 20th anniversary party. He came in, really great guy. I mean, super fun. We talked about it, how cool he was, and super laid back. Went way over his. He was only. You know, we only asked him to play for about 30, 35 minutes. And I remember standing there with the Shinedown guys going, when do you need us on? I go, I don't know. Whenever he's done. Like, he. He didn't want to stop playing. You could tell. Like, he just. He got the guitar, and then he just kept going. He played for an hour.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah, he was awesome.
Rod Ryan
While I'm standing with Brent, and Brent's the headliner. He's like. And he was loving it, though. Like, Brent was. Brent was Zach. Both of them were like, this is so cool. I said, are you guys okay? I go, I really can't go. Tell him to get off the stage. And they're like, rod, this is fine. We're loving this. It was so great.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I don't.
Rod Ryan
I don't have anything else for you other than Jacob Noel wants to be. Wants to carve out his own path and do his own thing. How can you not respect that?
Mo (News/Headlines)
What happens? The other two guys in the band,
Rod Ryan
I think they have. I think they have one last hurrah. Those are his adopted uncles, and Eric Wilson and Bud G are the other two guys.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
I don't have anything else on it because I just found out this morning that this album coming out is the final Sublime album according to Jacob Noll. So that's it. My guess is they keep the door open. The touring money's gonna be good. I think Jacob taken care of. But if he wants to take care of his uncles, I don't know how much dough his uncles have. His adopted uncles in the band. My guess is if a festival comes calling.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And we're gonna give you the biggest font on that poster. The. The paychecks for these festivals are huge.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
But he didn't say he's not gonna like tour with him. I guess he's gonna, he said he's not. He's gonna do one album. So like you could tour and do everything Sublime's already got, plus the new album forever.
Rod Ryan
And then he double dips.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I mean that's kind of what they've already done.
Rod Ryan
But then he double dips on those tours and then all of a sudden it's Jacob's Castle also on the bill. He's going to get, then he gets to play his stuff and get a huge audience for his stuff.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
And then that's very likely, I think
Rod Ryan
what could happen and get the paycheck. And I'm not trying to make this about a paycheck. I'm talking about the other guys in the band. Just thinking logistically, I'm thinking maybe these guys just do festivals now.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And no more albums.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
They be fine.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Festival.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
It'd be really good.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. He didn't say he's not going to play with the band. He said this is the only album he's going to do with them. That's. You can read more about it on the music blog page. Today, rock and alternative for Houston.

I need mo with Houston's headlines. What you got?
Mo (News/Headlines)
You got it. So the US and Iran are on the verge of signing some sort of formal agreement as early as this weekend. President Trump announced yesterday afternoon that he had canceled planned strikes against Iran that were supposed to happen last night because the final points of a potential deal have had been approved. Trump said VP Vance, not Trump himself, would attend the signing. Which he suggested could happen in Europe as soon as this weekend. So we'll see.
Rod Ryan
Get that all signed up for his appearance on the View on Tuesday.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yes.
Rod Ryan
J.D. vance on the View Tuesday.
Mo (News/Headlines)

Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Obviously sunny host is gonna lose her mind.
Mo (News/Headlines)
SpaceX IPO is trendline trending today.
Rod Ryan
It's everywhere.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yeah. And I'm not the person to tell you about it. I know it has priced its IPO at $135 per share as of last night. I understand that they are trying to fundraise $75 billion by selling over 555 million shares, making it the largest initial public offering in history.
Rod Ryan
So talk to the hell about it. He really. How was Reverie? Koi koi is a good word this morning. It's huge. It's a, it's a big thing today. I didn't get in on the ipo. You gotta like know people and. Okay, I don't know anybody. By the time, by the time you and I can get our hands. If you wanted to buy SpaceX today.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Okay.
Rod Ryan
Hal said it's gonna take them a couple of hours to kind of figure out. Okay, where are we at?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Okay.
Rod Ryan
So by the time it hits the actual market for Joe schmoes like us, it could be 155. It could be 165, could be 175. We don't know for sure. But it could take a couple of hours for them to get it figured out and then get it up on the market and then you can go and buy it and add it to your portfolio if you want. Okay. But I mean, just don't buy it because you think you it's cool.
Grainger Announcer
Like it is cool.
Rod Ryan
Look into it a little bit.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It's trendy cool today. I don't know if it's going to be cool.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, I mean it's, it, it's, it's a stock market story that's a mainstream story, you know, and you know the players. And then I guess the other thing that you can't bury is a man may become a trillionaire today. The first trillionaire that we know of. I, I think there's some weirdo Saudi Arabian guys.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
They don't have to report any.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, these Dubanese, what do you call the people from Dubai Nations.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Okay.
Rod Ryan
I think these guys got unreported money that like wealth that we have no idea about. But Elon Musk could become a trillionaire today.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Big day.
Rod Ryan
That pisses people off right there.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It does tan maxing kind of ticks me off.
Rod Ryan
Okay, so. Well, wait a minute. You. You led me to believe that back in your day, maybe still, you were kind of a. You're not overly tan.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I want to be.
Rod Ryan
Sorry, but I mean, I want to be. It's, you know, it's not good for you.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I know it's bad for me.
Rod Ryan
Tanning is bad.
Mo (News/Headlines)
The hashtag tan maxing with two X's has gone viral on social media because Gen Zers are going back to those extreme lengths that we used to go to to chase darker skin.
Rod Ryan
What did you do back in the day?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Oh, my gosh. Tanning bed. I rubbed baby oil. Would lay out like, non stop. We always checked the UV index and they're doing that on apps now. They're even doing the tan tattoos that we did. We wore the little Playboy bunny sticker. And then you take it off and see how much tan you got.
Rod Ryan
Which is the only, like, good piece of skin on your whole body.
Free Beer Friday Chant Leader
Yes.
Mo (News/Headlines)
The World Health Organization classifies UV radiation as carcinogenic. Same as cigarette smoking.
Rod Ryan
That's real bad for you.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Just to be clear. It's real bad for you.
Rod Ryan
We know these things now. We know that it's bad.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It's bad. It's back. I'm sorry. I'm just reporting the news.
Rod Ryan
What's next? Like, cigarettes are going to be cool again?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Probably.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
No, they make a comeback.
Rod Ryan
Dude, don't do it. Don't do it. Gen Z. Don't start smoking and make it. And then you look so cool. No, you're not. Oh, my God, dude. Smoke maxing.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Not even care. I'm sick maxing, dude.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Let's talk about the Rock.
Rod Ryan
Sigma Maxing.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Sigma. Male cig.
Rod Ryan
Don't do it, guys.
Mo (News/Headlines)
The Rock would never. He recently had a cancer scare. Painful lump in his left testicle. He saw a doctor, and while he's waiting around for the results, he did all of his press for Jumanji. He didn't tell his wife. He's making jokes, he's making speeches. Was just waiting around Jumanji. That was it, right?
Rod Ryan
What did he have?
Mo (News/Headlines)
What did it end up being? Epi.
Rod Ryan
Epi. Jabroni.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Epididymitis.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Which has to do with your epididymis,
Mo (News/Headlines)
which is the tube behind your testicle. Thank you. He treated it with antibiotics. Thank God. He's using this, though, to remind people, always get your balls checked. All right, and then let's talk about Zach Brown. He's singing the national anthem with the Marine Band on Sunday at the UFC Freedom 250 event. On the White House lawn, and he is jacked up about it. So he's just on the Pat McAfee show and he said, I'm there for the troops. I'm there to honor America. There is patriotism, not politics. Forget all the division. He said a bad word. He said, I don't believe in that. I just love this country. And he's a massive UFC fan.
Rod Ryan
End of story.
Mo (News/Headlines)
People are giving him so much crap.
Rod Ryan
End of the story.
Mo (News/Headlines)
He said there's gonna be like 8, 000 active servicemen that are gonna be there jacked up for that.
Rod Ryan
Good for him.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Those are Houston sidelines.

Rod Ryan
Okay, here we go.
Mo (News/Headlines)
And food.
Rod Ryan
You guys probably don't remember. It was. It had to be way before your time. I don't know how long the show went on for. It's one of those. It probably was like a PBS. I mean this is back when there was like three channels. But then there was that weirdo channel 17 where you could, you know, public, where you could see Sesame street.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Okay.
Rod Ryan
It was called Romper Room. And she would pick up, at the end of the show she'd pick up her magic mirror and just like a handheld mirror and she would say I see Monica and I see Alex and I see Jose. And she, she would just like yell out random names that like people that were like watching the show. And I imagine if you're a kid and you heard her mention your name, your mind, oh my God, that mirror. She saw me in the mirror. Yeah, she would end her show like that.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Okay, no, I've never heard of that Romper Room.
Rod Ryan
So I'd sit there and I'd watch this show and I'd wait till the end. And she never said Rodney, never. Never once did she say I see Rodney. I think she said, I think she said my dumbass brother Randy once too. And he was like, haha. She saw me. Didn't see you. Well, guess what? I'm holding up my magic mirror right now. I see Rachel. I see Rachel Kaiser. Love you.
Mo (News/Headlines)

Mo (News/Headlines)
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Rod Ryan
I had no sales this morning at all. We had no sales this morning. And then they all jumped in there because I said, hey, maybe it's payday for a few of you if you haven't gotten into the Rod Ryan Show Cares online store. Thank you. I'm sorry if I butchered your name. I'm the worst at that. I'm the worst that I am not available for hire, for leading, for reading off a list of names at your company or kids graduating. I will never be at a commencement. I don't know.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It'd be kind of awesome.
Rod Ryan
I can't do it. I cannot. It's just, I look at it. I don't have any dyslexia or anything. I can read fine. What? I have namexia. I cannot read people's names. I absolutely can't do it. So thank you. Sorry I butchered your names, but every one of those people that I mentioned went into the Rod Ryan Show Cares online store this morning and either made a donation or a purchase. And thank you. Thank you for that. That's more backpacks for kids. Safe, secure shopping, all for charity on the world famous Rod Ryan show blog page.

I disagree with you because she said she never saw her name. Like, they never. They never said her name on the Romper Room. I told you the Romper Room story. Isa said that she never got called out. I never got called out. Have you seen a young chile Jose? Cute as a button. Of course she saw sweet, but she definitely saw Jose in her mirror. Jose got called out. Jaime got called out before me. Jaime got called out. I remember, like, Jaime, you're not gonna see Rodney. You're not gonna see me. She did call out out Jose in the mirror. But thank you to everybody. I say a lot. Thank you to everybody that went into the Rod Ryan Show Cares online store. That's why I was calling out names. Those were my cute little children that I was thanking for helping us out.

Oh, my gosh. Every morning. I can't hear that enough. The craziest thing that somebody would ever say to me. And you didn't. It's like, oh, Rod, you know, I'm sure you hear this all the time. Like, I can't hear that enough. Stuff like that. Who wouldn't want to hear, like, nice things? Heather, you say that you listen all the time. That means the world to me. You're caller number 10.

Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Alex, we're going.
Rod Ryan
Let's go. You look good. Now I'm feeling I have a little fomo. Gd. I should have bought that jersey. It looks so cheap.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
You still can go get it, bro.
Rod Ryan
I'm so cheap.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Alex, $10,000 to give to charity. You can buy a drink.
Rod Ryan
I know. Listen, I got flushed out. I told you guys what my week looked like. Yeah, I got flushed out this week.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Money wise. But I. I'm feeling some fomo. I told Alex that I saw that same jersey. I don't know. I met JCPenney. Where am I? Where do you get that from? Academy. Okay, that jersey is on a hanger somewhere that I had in my hands. I had it in my hands and then I'm guessing. I'm guessing it was 120 bucks. I'm like, okay, am I gonna wear it? Like, I would have worn it today? We had twins.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
We could match.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
You could have got the blue one with the stars. I have that one too. We could alternate.
Mo (News/Headlines)
So precious.
Rod Ryan
I am so jealous of the relationship that him and Chile have. Like, I felt like you could have been. I could have been. And then I cheaped out. I cheaped out. I. I saw that was 120 bucks.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Forest guy on the show buys it.
Rod Ryan
I don't know. You gave away the most money on the air today.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Well, it's not my money.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Does it have a name on the back?
Rod Ryan
No.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I didn't get this.
Rod Ryan
Okay. So it's good.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
You can.
Rod Ryan
You can wear that forever now.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Good looking jersey. USA plays tonight.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
They play Paraguay.
Rod Ryan
What time?
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Eight o' clock our time.
Rod Ryan
Oil and gas. Greg must have been out yesterday for the. For Mexico's game. And he was out at one of these ice houses or whatever. And it's just you. You would have thought you were in Mexico. Just green jerseys everywhere.
Mo (News/Headlines)
That's awesome.
Rod Ryan
He just said it was just a hell of a party.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Good.
Rod Ryan
These games are meant to be watched with other people. Yeah.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
You know, way more fun, you know,
Rod Ryan
and maybe that would get you more excited about it. But I saw something that this. It's an old clip. I have it on three things you must see today. But I see that it's kind of circulating all over the place. Let's take a listen here. Why do the Americans insist on calling it soccer? Why do they have such a problem calling it football? It's a game played with a ball that is struck with the foot, hence foot ball. Whereas American football is a game where an object that's not really a ball at all is carried around by hand and occasionally thrown for other people to catch in their hands. Only one person in each team is allowed to actually kick the ball. And they have to be specially brought onto the field to do it. So let me shut the clock up
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
from Beauty and the Beast. All right. What's he doing? Ranting about ourselves. Sport, bro.
Rod Ryan
You recognize that? That's John Cleese.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah, we wanna. We want a war, so we can call it whatever we want. All right. Shut up.
Rod Ryan
England. Yeah, it's not a new video, but it's been getting a lot of new attention since the World cup started up again. And the great debate of football or soccer, well, we're the host, so we're going with soccer. You know, so you're. You're fighting a massive Uphill battle on that one. The Rod Ryan show built right here in Houston, Texas. Every morning on 94. 5 the Buzz. 94. 5 the Buzz. Good morning Rob Ryan show disturbed and I will not break. 8:38. You know what that means. Stocks have been trading for eight minutes now.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Oh, hell yeah.
Rod Ryan
The New York Stock Exchange.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Good.
Rod Ryan
We don't normally follow this, that this quite this close, at least not on this show. Nor is anybody really qualified to talk about it. I'm pretty qualified, but I've got the same Internet that you guys do and I, all I look at is Yahoo Finance and SpaceX is out there. You can't buy it yet if you didn't get in on the IPO and it's still listed at 135. So that was the, the price I guess that you got in, if you got in on what's called an ipo. But we're nine minutes into the stock being out there for about the last nine minutes. I think Elon Musk is a trillionaire now.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Pretty sick.
Mo (News/Headlines)
How do we know?
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Couldn't have any better person right with,
Rod Ryan
with everybody saying that he could, he could, he could, he could with this. That means he's going to be, I think, think right now on paper, Elon Musk is a trillionaire. I don't think we could wrap our hat. I can't wrap my head around that. When you just look at the difference between a million and a billion and then to, to acquire so many billions that you get to a trillion, I don't, I don't even know what the amount of zeros of that looks like. No, it's just unbelievable. If you wanted to buy SpaceX, it's going to take a couple of hours. You know, we listen to our guy, Captain Cash, and he said that it's going to take him a couple hours to kind of sort everything out and then we'll kind of see where it's at. It should get some kind of a jump.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
So you'll invest all my money if
Rod Ryan
you can go buy. He said, I wish you wouldn't. I don't know if you heard him
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
say that honestly, like the money guy, come on, you know, should we address that guy?
Rod Ryan
Like I feel like you were talking and you glossed over him when he said I wish you wouldn't.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
He's working for big money.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I took it seriously.
Rod Ryan
I was like, yes sir, I did too.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I did too. Well, you guys cannot buy it. And when, then I, when I get rich and I own a rocket, you'll pick us up. And I won't let you guys go on it.
Rod Ryan
Who right now is wearing the most expensive shirt on the Rod Ryan Show?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Alex.
Rod Ryan
That's where I'm going to take my advice from then.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Who is wearing the coolest shirt on Show All?
Rod Ryan
Maybe me.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Oh, yeah.
Rod Ryan
Maybe my MTV Headbanger Ball. Headbangers Ball.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
You're Canadian, so you wouldn't think the America jerseys is cool.
Rod Ryan
I've gotten several compliments on my T shirt today.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
I haven't even talked about it.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I've gotten several compliments.
Rod Ryan
Several. I'm sure you. I have. I've complimented you. Yeah. So you have the most.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I am winning.
Rod Ryan
You have the most expensive outfit on today. Outfit. Yeah. But you could have.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Boys don't wear outfits. Okay.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Oh, it's my fit. I'm a fit on, bro.
Rod Ryan
All right.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Close.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Pulling a fit off.
Rod Ryan
We got one case of beer left to get to. Yeah. What do you come to this show for? Space SpaceX Advice Fashion. Are we launching rockets? No, we're giving away beer. Okay. Giving away beer. And then we'll do open phones. I can't wait.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Houston's rock.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Houston's alternative all day.
Rod Ryan
And the Rod ryan Morning Show.
Grainger Announcer
94. 5 the buzz.
Rod Ryan
94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show on this free beer Friday. What you got over there? We got one case of beer left.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I do.
Rod Ryan
We got one case of beer left. And then Chili flips the phones and then it's open phones Friday. Boom. We take your calls for an entire hour. All right, well, you got one more. Houston's headlines in you.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I do, Rod. Are you interested?
Rod Ryan
I'm ready.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Good. So am I. I want this.
Rod Ryan
I want this first story to be real. I want this over with.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Well, I'll keep you updated. Right now, the US And Iran are on the verge of signing some sort of formal agreement as early as this weekend.
Rod Ryan
End it.
Mo (News/Headlines)
President Trump announced yesterday afternoon that he had canceled planned strikes against Iran that were supposed to happen last night because the final points of a potential deal had been approved by all of the parties involved. He listed Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, uae, Egypt. Iran not on that list, though. So VP Van is going to attend the signing. Could happen in Europe as soon as this weekend. We'll see.
Rod Ryan
We need Iran on that list like it's.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yeah, we need them. Right. All parties involved in Iran is not on there.
Free Beer Friday Chant Leader
Wow.
Rod Ryan
Okay. Let's get this over with. Hopefully we. It's a big weekend.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It is a big weekend. You got flagged a lot to celebrate. I mean, Army's birthday.
Rod Ryan
You know, Trump loves his birthday.
Mo (News/Headlines)
He loves his birthday.
Rod Ryan
Got the big party on the White at the White House lawn and it. Everything like that. Let's get it all together and then, boom, let's get this Iran thing over with.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Let's go. Meteorologists are calling right now. Typical summertime weather through Saturday at least then we have a change coming. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, we're going to see a cold front of sorts. Torrential downpours, flash flooding. Nothing we like to hear. But until then, let's enjoy highs in the low 90s. It feels like over a hundred. It's kicking our butts is the humidity. Nearly one in three Americans are not checking their bank balances because of anxiety. I really tried to avoid this headline. I kept seeing it over and over again, but it. It just keeps popping up. The US bank did a survey of adults, and they found that the younger adults have the most stress when it comes to money. Gen Z not checking.
Rod Ryan
A lot of anxiety around this right now. Yeah.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yes. Nearly three quarters of millennials reported high or moderate anxiety over checking and savings, saying they would need 10,000 in their accounts to feel not stressed. And the majority of us have less than 5,000 in our bank accounts. So there's. That feels good, huh?
Rod Ryan
I mean, not opening it, it's not going to change anything.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It's not. I don't know if that's the answer,
Rod Ryan
but I get it. You know, we've all gotten that email and you're like, oh, God, I don't
Mo (News/Headlines)
want to open that email. Like, like this happen.
Rod Ryan
You know what it is? You just don't want. Or you see the phone ring. It's like, I'm not picking that up. So people are having that same anxiety about their, you know, looking at their bank statement online.
Mo (News/Headlines)
You know what else people are fighting about?
Rod Ryan
What?
Mo (News/Headlines)
Taylor Swift. This one's kind of exhausting. She's courtside at the Knicks game, right? So they're either saying she saved the team from the Trump curse, or she's a fake fan and needs to go away. Very loud. People arguing on either side.
Rod Ryan
I don't have a personal feeling. If you have the money to go
Mo (News/Headlines)
and do these things, you're experiencing a fun event.
Rod Ryan
If you've got $150,000 for that seat, go ahead. More power to you to go sit there on the floor. And she happened to go to one of the greatest basketball games of all time. So I don't know. I. Yeah, people. I've seen people bitching about it online, too. She's not a real fan. Like Ben Stiller is a real fan.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Was he mad that she was there?
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
She's got more money courtside tickets. If she hadn't like, did she okay, that. That's what you get. Like the guy that didn't go to the game. It's like, yeah, but like you couldn't have bought those tickets anyway. So like you would just go to somebody else. That's rich.
Rod Ryan
Taylor Swift, Fat Joe Chalamet. Nobody was keeping me from a seat. Yeah, yeah. I wasn't gonna be there.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
And people man's getting squeezed out like a 45 front row seat. Okay. But I don't think it wasn't the
Rod Ryan
common man Getting no $6,000 was the minimum for nosebleeds at. At Madison Square Garden.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Six thousand?
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Can you imagine paying $6,000 dollars to touch the roof?
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Top row.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
So then she bought her two friends tickets too.
Rod Ryan
Heim behind Sisters. And then they had an extra shirt and they gave it to Mariska Hargitay. So she was in on it. So it was a little foursome out there.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It was her little bachelorette party.
Rod Ryan
I thought that they seemed like they
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
were pretty fun during the broadcast. Yeah, they weren't like on their. DJ Khaled was there the other night and he was on his phone the whole time. Every time they would go into. Yeah, they like they were engaged in the game. I didn't watch the game because of them, but it was like they're. They're feeling it. They're having fun.
Rod Ryan
But I also, I don't have a problem with Taylor Swift going. I didn't have a problem with President Trump going.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
And I see. I did.
Rod Ryan
I also, I do not think that anybody attending the game affects the outcome of what happens on that court.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Unless it's Drake.
Rod Ryan
There's no, there's no curse Drake absolutely curses to blame somebody that's not playing.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
So does Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz is kind of a gigs too.
Rod Ryan
To blame someone who's not playing is ridiculous to me.
Mo (News/Headlines)
All right. Do you want to sit down when I tell this next story? Are you feeling okay about it?
Rod Ryan
I'm over the initial shock when you read it so callously this morning.
Mo (News/Headlines)
I'll try to be more sensitive to your feelings.
Rod Ryan
Go ahead.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Available today until the Sun Explodes. It's a new Sublime album. Their fourth and final album.
Rod Ryan
Again, just. You're just glossing over that.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Their final album. It's the first one in 30 years. We've got Jacob Noel replacing his late father as the singer. But Jacob Came out and said he considers his album with Sublime a one and done. He wants to get back to his own career.
Rod Ryan
Did anybody know this before today? That Jacob? No.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
You were with me when I learned this. Remember, we freaked out together.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. We thought that Sublime was back for a long time.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Made eye contact, panic.
Rod Ryan
And if you knew this, you're listening to the radio right now and you're like, rod, everybody knew this. I don't think everybody knew this. Jacob Knowles said, no, this is his dad's band and he's there for it. And this album, he said, unless. Jacob said, unless his son puts out a Sublime album down the road, that'll be the next Sublime album. But for him, that's it. Album recording. He could always go back on that. But then we also broke it down where we felt like they could kind of go out and just get touring money forever.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Okay. So there's still potential.
Rod Ryan
There is.
Mo (News/Headlines)
He wants to do his own thing. He's taken care of.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Jacob's naturally. He wants to do his own thing. You can't blame him for that.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Those are Houston's headlines
Rod Ryan
Now. This is what you guys listen to now for. Read My Lips.
Caller/Listener
Oh, yes.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. This exact thing.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
And just American vibes in general. Okay, Team USA is going to play their first World cup game tonight. They're taking on Paraguay in Los Angeles. That'll kick off at 8 o' clock and you can watch the game on Fox. Also on the schedule today, Rod, Canada is going to play Bosnia at 2:00'.
Rod Ryan
Clock.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
You can check that game out on Fox if you want to watch that before you watch a real country play soccer.
Rod Ryan
But I gotta watch that on the cbc.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I'm sure they probably have it on the cbc. Is it sportsnet Canada?
Rod Ryan
Yeah, I got a big, like, satellite on my roof.
Mo (News/Headlines)
The roof.
Rod Ryan
To get all the Canadian channels.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
The shape of a maple leaf. In hockey, Hurricanes beat The Golden Knights 4 to 2 in game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final. Carolina's up 32 in that series. They're gonna play game 6 on Sunday night. Cup will be in the building. They don't bring the cup to the building, okay. Until somebody can win.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Time.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
And now it's time. And you get the keeper of the cup. Ken Stanley, or Ken Holland, I think is his name. No, Ken Holland's the GM of the badminton.
Rod Ryan
I'm just saying people.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Stanley.
Rod Ryan
I'm just saying, people get excited if Taylor Swift is in the house. Stanley cup in the house. It's a big deal, okay? It is a huge deal. It is Bigger than any celebrity. The fact that the cup will be present in case it needs to be wheeled out. I'm hoping it doesn't get wheeled out. I want a game seven. I want to game seven.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I want game seven. Hockey. Screw the Spurs. Like, let's end it tomorrow night in basketball. In baseball, the athletes casters are going to open up a weekend series with the Royal Tetsuya Ime is going to be on the mound for the Stroz going up against case Lewinder Avia first pitches at 7 10. You can listen to it on our sister station sports talk 790. And in basketball, spurs and Knicks play game five of the finals tomorrow night. New York is up 3:1 in that tip offs at 7:30. You can watch it on ABC. That is what's going on in sports.
Rod Ryan
I told you guys, when Hal and I, we went to the Olympics years ago and somehow we got entry into some kind of a party and we were standing in line and then the rumors started in the line. They're like, hey, the cup's in there. We're like, what? You couldn't have told us that Britney Spears was hanging out with Paris Hilton and Taylor Swift and people in line would not have been more excited when, when the rumors started going around because
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
it's not theirs, right?
Rod Ryan
But it was inside this club and it's all hockey people. And like we're going to go in there. They said the cup's in there. And we all freaked out. And sure enough, it was there.
Mo (News/Headlines)
It was there.
Rod Ryan
Couldn't touch it. You, you were Hal. There's a picture of Hal and I sitting on a couch and it's behind us. They're like, I don't even think they wanted us looking at it. We're like, oh my God, that's the Cup.
Mo (News/Headlines)
There, there.
Rod Ryan
There couldn't have been a bigger celebrity. There couldn't have been the president. I, I can't explain it. It's bigger than any celebrity. Seeing that damn that Stanley Cup. It's ridiculous. Houston's rock, Houston's alternative and home of

I'll give Chili a second just to kind of get everybody caught up. Got a really good email to share. I know it's open phones, but I'm always looking. Jennifer says, right. I'm a long time listener since I moved here in 2005. I always look, listen to your show, wake up in the morning, listen, on my way to work now. Her words, she goes. I'm ashamed to say I finally purchased from the online store to help raise some money for the kiddos going back to school and filled with filling up their backpacks. I just wanted to say thank you for always doing this charity, and I know it means more than anyone is telling you that these children received these backpacks. I used to be one of them when I was younger. Very poor. Never had new clothes, never had school supplies. And I will tell you, the teachers were incredible, helping me through school and on to graduate with high honors. They do not get paid enough for all they do in this world. So they were my safe haven. Anyways, thank you for your help. Thank you for the understanding that there are children in need. And these children have beautiful lives ahead of them. We just need to do our part to help. So Jennifer knows, and she's been listening for a long time. And there was just. Just something different this year that she said. You know what? I heard Rod talking about it. I haven't gone in there and made my purchase yet. And she did it for the first time. So I. I just love. I love sharing that. Thank you, Jennifer, for finally coming around. And I see she's in the store and very good. Great work. Thank you, Jennifer. I appreciate that. Open phones Friday.

Rod Ryan
Okay.
Caller/Listener
Santeria. And it actually sounds really good. At first I was like, oh, it didn't even sound like. It sounded like Bradley more than anything and sounds a lot like his dad. It was actually really cool.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah, that's very cool.
Caller/Listener
But the cool thing that my husband pointed out was the. The way the sign like S U N. And then it's actually Bradley's son. S O N. Yeah.

Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
I'm a vendor out there.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
I do woodworking, specialize in 3D wooden flags.
Rod Ryan
So just the. The history that I know. White linen night was something that started in New Orleans.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Couple came after Katrina, they came to the Heights area. They started white linen in the Heights, and then it looks like it's taken off in other places. It's a cool thing, man. I mean, there's not really nothing more to it than you wear white linen clothing and you party, enjoy your neighbors and you party. Yeah. You get out and say hi to people and. And that sort of thing. Is that pretty much what it's like in League City as well?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Yeah, that's pretty much what I just like there. We're gonna have the. Our cars, music, food, crafts vendors. It's all in the historic district of League City.
Rod Ryan
It's so great. I didn't know about it.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Just come out and it's free. Come out and supports local communities.
Rod Ryan
And tell me again about your. What's underneath your tent.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
So I make 3D.
Rod Ryan
Okay. You looked at me. Okay. You try to come across as this, like, pure, innocent little girl on this show. And then I asked her in Robbie's ball gag.
Caller/Listener
That's her day.
Rod Ryan
Okay. But I asked one guy what's under his tent, and you know, he's a craftsman. Okay. Talking about a 10x10 pop up 10 art. Yeah. Tell us. Tell us what you're selling.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Okay. So I do woodworking, bird houses, wooden toys, seasonal arts and crafts especially. I make 3D wooden flags that every time I go out, everybody says, I've never seen anything like this done before. I call it. I call it a battle flag. So it looks like it's been through a battle.
Rod Ryan
That's very cool.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Do the regular American flag, the 1776. I've done some POW MIA.
Mo (News/Headlines)

James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
I just wanted to quickly give a shout out to my son Tatum. He is five and he's swimming against six year Olds in his swim team, and him and his freestyle relay got first place last night.
Rod Ryan
How great is that?
Caller/Listener
Boom.
Rod Ryan
Boom. Now, who swam? I mean, when your kid is five and competing, that means either mom or dad swam when they were younger.
Mo (News/Headlines)
Or your kid has way too much energy, and you just need them to get it out.
Rod Ryan
Who's the swimmer?
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
Mo hit the nail on the head. Mike did it, I think, like, two years when she was a little kid, and then I never did it.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
Yeah.
James (Fresh Out of Bed Head to Head Champion)
But, no, he's good. I mean, he. He. He crushes it, and we're proud of him.
Alex (Co-host/Sidekick)
