Tone & Style

The language remains irreverently upbeat and deeply community-oriented, full of inside jokes, supportive shout-outs, and genuine Houston pride. The show leans heavily into audience participation, rock and sports fandom, local weather/traffic as shared experience, and a “we’re in this together” approach to both challenges and celebrations.

at wgu.edu you I'm Kiana and I leveled up my business with Shopify. Once I figured out that Shopify was a thing, I never turned back. I can create a site with my eyes closed. Shopify thinks ahead of us, you know, and it thinks about the customer more than anything. Every day I'm thinking about some other new business but Shopify is doing it to me because it's so easy to use. It's like I can't stop. I'm addicted. To start your free [e-mail] Morning, this is Ed McMahon. And now ladies and gentlemen, here's Ron Ryan. Sir. Wakey wakey. Hands off snakey. This is us. We're here, we're live. We're working today. Happy free beer Friday everybody. Beer at the top of the hour, straight up at 6, 7, 8 and 9. So that means you're just minutes away from that first case. One time hall of famer James. Big morning for him. He's going for win number five. Finally fresh out of bed. Head to head. We'll play it at around 6. 25. Finger death punch tickets. Yep, 720. Oh, I almost forgot. Alex has another 500. That's why we had to come in today. Major League Baseball on NBC at 6:50. That's when you want to start hanging out with us. Shortly after that is when Alex is going to ask a very simple trivia question. He said this one's going to be more difficult. We'll see from the fourth and final week, Alex giving away 500 at around 655 open phones Friday, the last hour of the show. Rain should be manageable this weekend. Today I see during the day, only a 10 chance, but we'll see what the heat will bring. Mo is right there to talk about it. She loves talking about the weather. Good morning, Mom.

[Mo]

I love talking about the weather.

[Rod Ryan]

We got Houston's headlines because I'll tell you what, you called it yesterday.

[Mo]

Holy.

[Rod Ryan]

Right now, Moly. 5 o' clock was like a sauna outside.

[Mo]

Yeah, our first extreme heat warning of 2026. It's now over officially, but our heat index values topped out at 113 in Houston.

[Rod Ryan]

Brutal.

[Mo]

It got as high as 121 in Bay City. Wow. 121. The extreme heat warning is now replaced with the heat advisory. It's going to last through all of our day today. And we woke up in the eight. It won't get as hot as it did yesterday, but the heat index levels will still peak between 105 and 110. We have a 40% chance of scattered thunderstorms popping up later today, mostly north of I10 it looks like. But those scattered thunderstorms are predicted for tomorrow Saturday as well. I know we have a big day for Team USA Today, USA Australia this afternoon, but yesterday the news, the headlines were from FIFA Fan Festival and Shell Energy Stadium both hit capac for the Mexico South Korea match. Thousands of fans turned up to watch the highly anticipated game. Things were extra steamy, dangerous heat warning in effect. So it looked like chaos. If you're planning on attending any of this weekend's festivities, just ask Alex where to hang out.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, you want to hang out. Chapman and Kirby tonight, 7 to 9 and then sunset rooftop tomorrow from 8 to 10.

[Mo]

Houston Stadium is hosting another game match Netherlands, Sweden at noon. And I heard that fans of both of the teams have some pregame stuff where they're walking to the stadium. So if you're anywhere in town, just be prepared. Father's Day is Sunday and it's go time. Projected reports are on spending this year show that it's up. Last year we spent $24 billion on dads. And while 77% of people plan to celebrate, each of them, on average plan on spending $226. So spending is up. Carlos Mendisa is in the headlines. That guy, he's a comedian and he was arrested yesterday and I had to look him up. But Rod says y' all love him.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, he's been a good friend of the show. He. He was on all the time for a while there. Then his Career kind of tapered off. He had the run in with Joe Rogan. Never really recovered from that.

[Mo]

Did you think this was a joke when you saw the headline? Because there are people that are reporting that.

[Rod Ryan]

No, it's a joke. I didn't think it was a joke. I thought, wow, this is a terr thing.

[Mo]

12 felony counts. 12.

[Rod Ryan]

Are they all related to not paying taxes?

[Mo]

Yes. And the state of California says he was stealing from them. The DA statement yesterday claimed he failed to report $8.7 million in income. It was a lot of money. The IRS is also after him. Mencia, Carlos.

[Rod Ryan]

Carlos Mencia. Yeah.

[Mo]

Sorry about you.

[Rod Ryan]

The guy was on top of the world, man, for a while in the comedy world.

[Mo]

Hellfest music festival kicks off in France this weekend. Kicked off yesterday officially with the unveiling of the 20 foot tall Aussie statue. I would say I'm impressed. It looks really good. You can mess up a statue of a person and that looks really great.

[Rod Ryan]

This one looks good. You like it?

[Mo]

The festival posted about the unveiling and we've posted the pictures again. I'm impressed. But those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Take it, Alex. Yesterday at the World Cup, Czechia in South Africa played to a 11 draw. Switzerland beat Bosnia 4 1. Canada blew out Qatar City 6 nil. Mexico got by South Korea 1 nil. And then today, what's really important here, play that music. There we go. Team USA is going to play their second World cup game when they take on Australia this afternoon. They're going to be playing in Seattle. That'll kick off at 2 o' clock our time. You can watch it on Fox in baseball. Astros going to be back in action tonight. They're going to open up a weekend series with the Guardians at Dyken Park. Tatsuya Ime is going to be on the mound for the stroz. Going up against Cleveland's Tanner Bybey. First pitches at seven, ten. And you can listen to that game on our six sister station Sports Talk 790. That is what's going on in sports. Here we go. Here we go. Four hours of pain starts right now. First phone call is going to be our first beer winner of the day. It's free beer Friday, baby. Strap yourselves in. The most interactive show on the radio starts right now. Two, one. Yeah.

[Mo]

Another one of these Major league baseball. One of these really tough questions for people telling. I'm telling people to be with us at around 6:55.

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. You can blame us. Working on me, I planned out my fun facts and then I looked at them for Friday, and I said, these are so good. We can't take the day off.

[Mo]

We gotta be there.

[Rod Ryan]

We have to be there. These fun facts are so great. How great are they, Rod? Well, let's just get rolling. Sled dogs wear mascara to help cut down the glare of the sun. And if Moe's over there thinking maybe it's Maybelline, you'd be right. No way. According to one musher, they'll often use a simple waterproof mascara like Maybelline on the lighter colored dogs. Applying the makeup to the fur around the eyes, not the actual lashes. You kidding me right now? You were gonna sleep in for that? You were gonna sleep in instead of that. Now, moving on. In the past, soccer balls were brown, and then they were bleached white. Now, hang in there with me. The black pentagons were introduced for television at the 1970 World cup to show viewers the position and rotation of the ball, particularly on the black and white TVs of the day. See? See why I wanted to come in?

[Mo]

Here we are now.

[Rod Ryan]

Here. Go. Let's get. Let's get. Dog owners fighting against one another.

[Mo]

Oh, geez.

[Rod Ryan]

According to canine psychologists. Are you ready for the smartest dog breed? Oh, my dog's the smartest. My dog is perfect. He's such a good boy. Such a good girl. Vu. You're the smartest ever. No, you're not. No, you're not. Actually, the smartest dog breed in the world is the border collie. That's neat. That was Lassie.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Super old reference, Lassie. Poodles are next, followed by German shepherds, Golden retrievers and Doberman pinchers. It's the fun. Back to the day. We make you look smart in front of your buddies. It's the fun fact of the day. I wasn't gonna stay home today. Now, you guys know that stuff.

[Mo]

It's huge. I didn't know poodles were smart. I would have never guessed poodles.

[Rod Ryan]

No, not either. I didn't know either because I've been told, sorry if own one Labradoodles are not very smart.

[Mo]

And I figured, well, is that cross genetic sizing me?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

Do we mess up somewhere?

[Rod Ryan]

I've heard Labradoodles are dumb. I'm sorry. I just heard that. I don't know if it's true. They are. What are you giving away?

[Mo]

Oh, I have babymetal hailstorm tickets. They're going to be in the Woodlands September 25th and we want you there if you know this flashback.

[Mo]

Thank you, sir. Our first extreme heat warning of 2026 is now over, but feels like temperatures are expected to reach 112 today. Yes, we do have a 40% chance of scattered thunderstorms popping up later in the day. And more for our Saturday. Nationally, the headline is that the US And Iran peace talks have been postponed. VP Vance was planning to go to Switzerland. We've been talking about that all week, right?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

Well, he had to cancel his plan. Str.

[Rod Ryan]

Why?

[Mo]

Because of the intense new Israeli strikes in Lebanon that have cast further doubt over efforts to end the war. We're all annoyed by these maxing trends. You know, they put, like, a word and then put maxing at the end. And every time I see a new one, I'm like, what the hell is that? So I Google it. Turns out the majority of folks agree with me. We're all Googling these idiotic trends to find out what they are. And now Google has released their most annoying maxing Trends of. Of 2026. Friction maxing is number one. We're Googling it because it we. I don't. I don't know. Friction maxing.

[Rod Ryan]

Anything that, like, is causing you to

[Mo]

slow down, you would think things that are deliberately making things harder, like taking cold showers, deleting a delivery app from your phone. The horror. Parking too far away to force yourself to walk.

[Rod Ryan]

That's friction.

[Mo]

Friction maxing. I. It.

[Rod Ryan]

That might be the dumbest one yet.

[Mo]

Y', all, I'm sorry about this list, but Google was right, Rod. Shark Week kicks off next Friday. Are you pumped?

[Rod Ryan]

I used to be. I don't know. I'm sorry. If you're still into it, that's great.

[Mo]

They've been trying really hard. And Discovery Channel just announced their lineup of content yesterday. The major headline this year, K Pop. K Pop.

[Rod Ryan]

No joke.

[Mo]

Their first special is called K Pop Shark Heroes. The people that are voice actors from the K Pop Demon Hunters are going to come back and do this special.

[Rod Ryan]

They're just. They're trying so hard to keep it relevant. I caught them lying a couple years ago like it was a documentary. It. I was led to believe it was a documentary, and then it wasn't real. And then they kind of got busted, and now they're a little bit more honest with what they're doing. Yeah, and then there was the merman. There was a merman thing that.

[Mo]

That was when you're out.

[Rod Ryan]

That's what I'm like, I'm done.

[Mo]

Isn't K Pop not bringing you back?

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know what's real and what's fake anymore. Like, you used to kind of learn stuff during Shark Week.

[Mo]

You're trying to educate people, and then

[Rod Ryan]

you're watching Love island.

[Mo]

Shark week, shark week.com for the complete lineup. And last but not least, I spent my morning commute committed to getting y' all the tea on the Jelly Roll divorce.

[Rod Ryan]

You're such a loser. She walked in with the earbuds and she goes, I'm listening to Bunny Bunny.

[Mo]

It's been four days since the news was leaked by TMZ about this divorce filing. And last night, Jelly Roll was at A concert. And he said, said, listen to Bunny's podcast. That's where you're gonna get all the details.

[Rod Ryan]

They do this just to get her podcast ratings. Like whether they got just.

[Mo]

They claim they're still best friends. They claim they're still going to have a child. You know, they've been working on that ivf. They're still going to do it even though they are divorced. He's dating other people. She claims she's never getting married again. He was her third marriage. It was. It's just like a roller coaster. She wasn't blindsided.

[Rod Ryan]

She. She told him, right, Bunny's okay.

[Mo]

She's gonna be okay. She told him to file the papers. They were fighting.

[Rod Ryan]

And she said, nobody cheated.

[Mo]

Nobody cheated. It's an hour I can't get.

[Rod Ryan]

Also made sure to say it like 17 times in the clip I saw. So that definitely makes me believe that they're not.

[Mo]

They both claim they did not cheat. Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

We didn't ask. But definitely nobody cheated. Let's go, Alex. All right. Yesterday at the World Cup, Czechia in South Africa played to a 11 draw, Switzerland beat Bosnia, Canada blew out Qatar, and me got by South Korea today. Fire that music up, buddy. Oh, yeah.

Good morning Brian Show. Thank you so much for rolling with us on this free beer Friday. Mo's got some great tickets coming up for you, but Alex wants to tell you what's trending. Speaking of Mo, I need you to help me with the pronunciation. Is it Carlos Meninja? Carlos Mencia is trending. The comedian was arrested for felony tax fraud. Yeah, he forgot. It's an Olympic year. You got to pay those taxes. Yeah, every year.

[Mo]

I recommend doing it every year, but

[Rod Ryan]

I'm on the every Olympic year plan. I've been good so far. Clearly not following my lead. You're going to be trending. You don't pay those. I determine what trends on this show. So I will not be trending. Barack Obama is trending. He opened his presidential library yesterday in Chicago. It looks pretty sweet. The building looks pretty cool. It's an odd. It's. It's a different looking building. For sure. I want to go hang out there. They should have put it right by the beam. There's a lot of people protesting there. I mean, you know, there's always going to be that books. No, there's a bunch of guys that say that, that, that built it, that didn't get Paid. Yeah. That seems bad. Yeah. Anything to do with that. So I wouldn't like, ruin his day. I don't know anything more about it, but there's a bunch of people saying, like, hey, they owe us a lot of money for building that place. You should probably get paid. Yeah. Big fan of people getting paid for their jobs. And then USA Australia is trending. They play at 2 o' clock today. It's the US second game. We can pretty much secure our spot in the knockout stage with a win and set ourselves up to win the group. I think we win the group of Paraguay wins against Turkey and we beat Australia. Is Australia any good? Australia is one. And oh, we're also one. Okay. We beat the heck out of Paraguay last week, so we're going to probably kick Australia's ass. I hope you're right.

I hope all you dads, you great dads out there that are doing it right. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I hope you get taken care of like the king that you are. On our Facebook page this morning, I was curious. Did your dads ever say anything to you? Did they. Were they known for a saying or did they have some advice? Were they the dad joke guy? Everybody's dad was a little different. My dad was all over the place. So I'm asking people on Facebook, what did your dad say to you? Give me a line. Give me something that he used. I. I started you guys off with two. I've told you the story before. Where I was, my dad just watched. My dad had, like, just man strength. Like, man strength. My dad was full man strength, but he's watching me. Me change a tire, and I cannot get this lug nut for the life of me. And I'm just. And my dad just look at me, he's like, here, let me help you. Don't. Don't strain your milk. Like what?

[Mo]

Don't strain your milk.

[Rod Ryan]

Don't strain your milk. Don't strain your milk. Let me help you. And then he just pushed me out of st. My son's a. But the other line that he used on me that kind of did stick with me was. And he said it to me a couple of times, it's, don't tell people you're a hard worker. Show them you work hard. And that really kind of made sense, good and bad, because my dad, that's all he did was work. My old man, that's all he did was work. So I don't remember him being at My baseball games or anything. My dad worked constantly. That's what he did. I'm asking you guys, what did your dad say? Give me a line from your dad. Dad, Victoria, I love. Oh, why'd you do that to me? I just lost my Internet. Oh, here she. Oh, God. I'm doing a bit right now. You can't do that to me. There's Victoria. Measure twice, cut once.

[Mo]

Oh, yeah, that's a dad thing.

[Rod Ryan]

I know. My dad said that for sure. She says, that man could build anything. Jacob says, you're gonna have bills to the day you die. Hell, you're gonna have bills even after you die. That's a dad thing to say. Say, christy, if you're going to be dumb, you got to be tough.

[Mo]

I love that.

[Rod Ryan]

That's a good one.

[Mo]

I love that. Sounds like exactly the same era of what my dad said to me.

[Rod Ryan]

I think all parents just thought their kids were dumb. My dad thought I was dumb. My dad knew I was dumb. Kids are dumb, dude. Yeah, kids are dumb.

[Mo]

It's true.

[Rod Ryan]

Like, in the grand scheme of things, like, they're just. They're young. They don't learn as much stuff as we know. I had a friend. You want to talk about something weird to say to kids? Let's say we're playing cards, okay? It's like me and four of our friends, we're sitting around, we're playing cards. He'd walk in and he'd say, this is a true story. He'd walk in, he'd say, a grenade could take all of you right now. Take you all out right now. That's what grenades do, though.

[Mo]

Why?

[Rod Ryan]

Why would you say that to kids?

[Mo]

Yeah, what was the point of that?

[Rod Ryan]

What do you want us to do, split up? We're playing cards. He was having a nam flash. Like, we're kids. We're playing a board game or something.

[Mo]

Can you just look at him and blink and keep playing?

[Rod Ryan]

He would walk in and say, a grenade would take all of you out right now. Now, that must be some military training. Would you stay back? Like, yeah, probably. Like, thanks. Thanks, I guess. What's the radius of this grenade? Do you want us to split up? Up right now? Should we be playing cards that far away? It's hard to play cards. Can we not hang out? And then he'd giggle and leave the room. This guy said this to us on more than one occasion. That a grenade would take us all right now. What a thing. Can you imagine my daughter playing with her friends? And I say that to them? You should Start doing. No. Take you off. I could.

[Mo]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

They wouldn't know how to process that. No, just. I kind of like that, though.

[Mo]

Start using it.

[Rod Ryan]

It stuck with me. And. And right now, in this group, Chili's the only one safe. A grenade would take us out, and Chili would be okay? Well, depending on what kind of grenade it was. I don't know. He might get some shrapnel. I think he'd be okay, though. He's smart. He doesn't, like, roll with the. He's very elusive, too.

[Mo]

We.

[Rod Ryan]

We operate under that, like, lone survivor thing. You got to put one guy in another room in case something happens. Chili's the guy that we trust the most.

[Mo]

Car.

[Rod Ryan]

So it's good to know, as I'm flashing back now to that a grenade would not take out the whole show, just us. I'm sure it would be fine. All right. That's what they're talking about on our Facebook page right now. Sunday, Sunday. Sunday, Father's Day and the summer solstice collide in one massive celebration. It's the longest day of the year. Watch dad as he absorbs maximum daylight with minimum effort. No mowing the lawn. No doing chores. Let him drink beer and eat fried foods and make Absol. No plans whatsoever. The sun may reach its highest point in the sky, but Dad's feet will reach their highest point in the recliner. It's the summer solstice. It's Father's Day. Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.

[Mo]

Well, thank you, sir. Our first extreme heat warning of 202026 is now over.

[Rod Ryan]

You weren't joking, man. It was, it was a, it was disgustingly hot yesterday.

[Mo]

It really was. Topped 113 in Houston, but the heat index value in Bay City, 121. The heat warning is now replaced with the heat advisory that will last through all of our day today, peaking between like 105, 110. We do have a 40% chance for scattered thunderstorms popping up later in the day. It's looking like mostly north of I10, but scattered thunderstorms predicted for tomorrow for our Saturday as well. Big day for Team USA Today, USA Australia this afternoon. But our headlines come out of the FIFA Fan festival and Shell Energy Stadium.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

Both hit capacity yesterday for viewing parties for the Mexico vs. South Korea match. Thousands of fans turned up to watch the highly anticipated anticipated games. Extra steamy, dangerous with that heat. Just be prepared if you're going to be in the area this weekend. Ask Alex where to hang out. He's going to be at all the cool places. Yeah, but the next game at Houston Stadium, AKA nrg, is Saturday. Right. Netherlands takes on Sweden at noon. And I also read that fans of both the teams have some pregame parties where apparently thousands of fans will go from Those pregame parties, 30s and march to Houston Stadium. One of them starts at Rice.

[Rod Ryan]

That's the orange bus. I was gonna ask, is the orange bus here? The Netherlands Ultras. So cool.

[Mo]

And they march. Yeah. So just like, if you're in the area and you're like, what in the heck is going on? No. Be aware. Okay. This is your heads up.

[Rod Ryan]

Gotcha.

[Mo]

Also heads up that Father's Day is Sunday. It's go time. You're probably a little late. Last year we spent $24 billion on dads. And it's gonna be up this year. 77 of people plan to celebrate. And we spend on average, average $226 on our fathers. What are you getting this year?

[Rod Ryan]

You remember the Mother's Day number? Because it's got.

[Mo]

Ridiculous.

[Rod Ryan]

Just saying. I'm sure ours is lower. It's all right. We're cooler about it.

[Mo]

Are you?

[Rod Ryan]

Yes, we are.

[Mo]

Never hear me whine about it as much as y' all do. Not me.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm a cool mom.

[Mo]

Greeting cards, clothing, special outings, personal care items. Are those really what dads want? Those top the list. I also see a lot of deals and freebies for Father's Day. Like Chipotle is doing a cool promotion. Golden Corral is on this list. Take care of your daddy, okay. He's a comedian. And his name is Carlos Mencia.

[Rod Ryan]

Sure is.

[Mo]

He was arrested yesterday.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh.

[Mo]

Apparently a lot of people were like, oh, that must be a joke. It's not a joke. He's accused of stealing from the state of California. In the DA statement yesterday, they claim he failed to report $8.7 million in income. Them, they say he was contacted almost 80 times between 2019 and 2024, but he never talked to them. One of California's biggest tax delinquents facing 12 felony charges.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. He's on the like most wanted. Yeah. For tax evasion. Yeah.

[Mo]

The IRS is also after him.

[Rod Ryan]

He must be getting tax advice from Alex.

[Mo]

Alex, you gotta stop.

[Rod Ryan]

I would have paid. Thank. It was an Olympic year. He was lot of money. Carlos Mencia was such a nice guy. He came in, he was probably in the studio with us five, six times. Yeah. He was on top of the world. He had his own show, the Mind of Mena. He was on top of the world. And then he got ambushed on stage by Joe Rogan. Well, because he stole a bunch of jokes. But Joe. Well, that's what I'm saying. He got ambushed on stage. Joe Rogan.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Picked up a mic and then outed him in front of that audience. And that went viral. Viral. Joe Rogan said you stole jokes you stole. And that's the worst thing that you can do as a comedian. And apparently it was true. So the, the, the clip went viral and I don't think Carlos men ever recovered from that. I mean he was, he was to the point where he was doing like the Toyota Center.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

He got to that big and now I don't know that he could sell out the improv.

[Mo]

So no idea pays off.

[Rod Ryan]

And now he's going to be playing in the dining hall of the, of the jail.

[Mo]

Yeah. Potentially 10 years in prison.

[Rod Ryan]

That's terrible.

[Mo]

Hellfest music festival kicks off in France this weekend and officially yesterday they unveiled a new 20 foot Aussie statue. And I am the first to admit that if someone's making a statue, I'm not always convinced by it. But this one is so freaking good.

[Rod Ryan]

Go to this statue maker because this guy's awesome. Whoever made this statue got it right. Right.

[Mo]

The festival posted about the unveiling saying thank you to everyone for everything you did. But they did thank Sharon for her help and support with this. She did a miss. She missed the unveiling because she had an unexpected hospital visit earlier in the week.

[Rod Ryan]

So that's a big thing to miss.

[Mo]

More into that. Hopefully she's okay. But do check out the pictures of the statue because it's very impressive. Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Yesterday at the World Cup, Czechia and South Africa played to a 11 draw. Switzerland beat Bosnia 4 to 1. Canada blew out Qatar 6 nothing and Mexico got by South Korea 1 nil today. Team USA is going to play their second World cup game when they take on Australia this afternoon in Seattle. That'll kick off at 2 o' clock and you can watch it on Fox. In baseball, the Astros are going to be back in action tonight. They're going to open up a week in series with the Guardians. Tetsuya IME will be on the mound for this. Drills going up against Cleveland's tib. First pitch is at 7:10. You can listen to it on our sister station sports talk 790. That is what's going on in sports, rock and alternative for Houston.

[Rod Ryan]

I think it's 11. One hour from now. I'll be talking to you guys even more than I that possible. Yeah. Open phones Friday. We'll just go rapid fire one after another after another. We'll take your calls. Full disclosure, I'm a Big Olivia Rodrigo fan. I'm a big fan. I think she's really super talented. So I'm reading this interview. I didn't watch the interview, but I'm reading what she said. And she said she has smelled fans in the audience who are wearing diapers at these big festivals. Hear me out. It's a concert trend that is happening and this has to stop. And she says she can smell it. Fans are wearing diapers to keep their spot in the front row of these festivals.

[Mo]

They don't want to leave to go the best bathroom.

[Rod Ryan]

Not only is it gross for the people around them, but now one performer who is on stage, not even standing right next to that person, has said they can smell it. Olivia Rodrigo has confirmed this on stage. She said she can smell it from the stage. She does. She says she knows people are wearing diapers. I didn't know this. I thought that's like a joke. Anytime somebody's wearing a diaper, I always think about that crazy astronaut walk woman that was driving in the car with the. With the ropes.

[Mo]

What?

[Rod Ryan]

And the tubes and the duct tape.

[Mo]

What are you talking about?

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, it was like a local story. She wore a diaper, didn't want to, like, leave the road. How do you not know this? You're the.

[Mo]

You're the crazy before.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, my God.

[Mo]

I've just.

[Rod Ryan]

I've just set up your whole weekend.

[Mo]

Is there a documentary?

[Rod Ryan]

It's local. It's an astronaut.

[Mo]

Astronaut.

[Rod Ryan]

Astronaut. In a diaper. Just do that. You'll get to. You'll get there.

[Mo]

Diaper.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, you'll get there in a car.

[Mo]

Crazy psycho Lisa allegedly wearing adult diapers during a 900 mile cross country drive from Houston to Orlando, Florida.

[Rod Ryan]

How do you not know this? Back to my girl, Olivia Rodrigo. Quote, I have been to certain concerts and certain festivals where people wear diapers so they can be front row of the show. And that's been an experience as a performer. Former. That I have smelled. That's gross.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

I just assumed that those people were fasting or didn't drink anything and not going or taking something. Salt, pills, or, I don't know, whatever makes you not pee. I just assumed that people were doing that. I get where you get that spot right up against the railing and you don't want to give it up. But wearing a diaper and a couple concert? Yeah, I just thought that was. I thought that was a joke. I didn't know that that was something that was happening.

[Mo]

You've never done it seeing. I've never done it over here.

[Rod Ryan]

She's all. She's all diad up for Lori Morgan. Do that all the time. Are you sitting next to Jeff? Jeff's in the cubicle next to you. Like, what do you got going on this video there? I'm going to get diad up and go see Olivia Rodrigo at Bon, where

[Mo]

I've heard of people using catheters as well.

[Rod Ryan]

I did not know. I sort of get like that because it's like you're not sitting in it then.

[Mo]

Yeah, you have a tube and then it goes down their boots.

[Rod Ryan]

Kind of weird.

[Mo]

I've seen that before.

[Rod Ryan]

But like, all right. You're just sitting in it.

[Mo]

It's. Yeah, it's really something.

[Rod Ryan]

Olivia Rodrigo. Smell you. She can smell you. Imagine being the people that are next to them in the. Oh, gross. Brought to you by Disney and Pixar's Toy Story 5. Now playing only in theaters. The Buzz Rock and alternative. Very Houston, The Rod Ryan Morning 94.5The Buz Rod Ryan show. Got some Black Label Society tickets. Zach's gonna pull double duty on this tour. He's also gonna be opening for himself in his band. Zack Sabbath. Most got tickets for you. But first, let's check in with Alex. What you got? What's trending? Juneteenth is trending. The oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the end of slavery. When in 1865 we had troops arrive in Galveston to let everyone know, hey, we are all freed men now. Hey, you guys are two years too late. Yeah, but it's Juneteenth today, so that is Trinity. Then Jelly Roll. Obviously, America's favorite couple, they let us know that they're not cheating on each other. Weren't cheating on each other. Definitely. Nobody cheated. There was no one that cheated. She didn't cheat. He didn't cheat. Nobody cheated. You think they're overdoing it on the nobody cheated. I know. I'm making sure that everybody knows. No, nobody cheated. Well, they're making sure that he didn't cheat.

[Mo]

She didn't cheat.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, don't say they cheated. They didn't cheat. It's bad for both of their brands. I think somebody probably did. I agree. I don't see why they would say they didn't if they did. But they have a unified front here and they are trying to protect each brand. And they're going to co parent now. That's weird that they're still going forward with the kid IVF situation. Yeah. So she is not currently pregnant.

[Mo]

She's not.

[Rod Ryan]

Didn't realize that. I thought she was currently Pregnant, but

[Mo]

I don't know if she's going to carry the baby. Like she might be doing surrogate. I don't know the situation. I know there are embryos, but most

[Rod Ryan]

importantly, they are going to co parent and nobody cheated.

[Mo]

Okay, that's what I got.

[Rod Ryan]

That's what they're saying now until we come back on Monday. She's going to need a new podcast eventually. So like, then that's the. Where we tell all the the secrets. World cup is trending. It's going to be trending forever, guys. It rocks right now. Mexico won. Canada won. There was an injury. Did you see the Canadian guy? You had to be tuned into that. So Mr. Leg snapped in half. Ms. Christina, Chili's wife told me that it was horrific. Yeah, Chili video. Last night I was driving and at a light, I looked at it and yeah, the sock was what was holding that guy's leg together. Is it like. I mean, really old reference. Sorry. But it's like Joe Theisman leg when it was broke. Remember that? Probably not as bad, but it was pretty bad. Okay, it's pretty bad. It was pretty bad. But that's what's training a knife before the buzz. Okay. I don't know why I always go back when I think leg injury. That's the worst one you could possibly. Is it the worst one ever? Like, him and Alex Smith basically had the exact same one. But Joe, Joe Theisman is the one you think of. It was so long ago. Was it? Lt yeah. And they, they just didn't have the rules that they have now or they weren't quite as sensitive. It was also just. They just showed it.

[Mo]

It was football.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. Oh, sorry. So, yeah, so Theisman's leg snaps and you can see Lawrence Taylor is like, like distraught, crying like, get over here, get over here. Like, oh, gosh, look what I've done. And then they replayed it and showed it over and over again. They don't do that anymore, but that's the difference. And that's. I'm a kid when that happens. And that's the Joe Theisman. That's what I think of when I think like a horrific leg break. Willis McGahey, I always think back to in that national championship. That was really bad. Yep, I remember that one. I remember 2002, Jim Kelly taking somebody out when he was the quarterback of the Bills and he took somebody out after an interception. He snapped their leg. And they showed that on tv. Yeah. Cam Scatterby last year had his. Like his foot was facing the wrong way. Yeah. And he tried to walk it off. Oh my God. Okay. Yeah, there's some pretty gruesome ones. I don't like watching that stuff. Stuff. Are we doing the tickets here?

[Mo]

Is that cool with you? Yeah, cuz I've got these tickets burning a hole in my pocket. For Black Label Society with Zach Sabbath with Dark Chapel, September 2nd Bayou Music center, ticketmaster.com or for caller 10 713-212-5945.

Yeah, just giving you a heads up. I know nobody cares, but, you know, it's Father's Day. It's a throwaway. Nobody cares. I'm not a conspiracy guy. I also don't live with my head in the sand either, but I just don't think that everything is like, oh, they're coming to get us type of deal. I don't know. I know that was a pretty broad statement, but I do know that there are things that are happening out there and they're not happening on accident. That whole thing of, like, when you're talking to your buddy about something, I'm talking to Alex over here, and I'm talking about, you know, man, I. I missed out, man. I should have bought a Jack Hughes jersey or whatever. I'll pick up my phone and then there's a Jack Hughes, you know, USA men's hockey jersey right there. That phone heard me say that. I believe that.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

It's not a conspiracy. I think that's really happening. Yes. That's technology. Their technology is happening. And I'm going to share something with you. And it's nothing against any of the companies here. It's just this is what they're doing, and it's kind of behind the scenes, but it's happening. And all you got to do is dig just a little bit and you'll see it. Let me talk about Papa John's for a second here. Papa John's recently partnered with NBC Universal and Instacart. Hear me out. They partnered with NBC Universal and Instacart to collect data on when various people might be out of groceries and may be more vulnerable to ordering pizza. Everything is becoming a science. Everything. So basically, this is like the Sports center edition. Instacart would say what day of the week people usually order a restock. Instacart has that information on you.

[Mo]

Of course. We're creatures of habit. We do things. Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Then on the days leading up to that day, Papa John's would serve those people pizza ads during Peacock and NBC Universal streaming content. You see how they're all working together? Yeah.

[Mo]

So when you see the pizza on tv, you're like, oh, that sounds great. Oh, I don't really have groceries. Order.

[Rod Ryan]

Papa John's is basically spying on your refrigerator and knows when you might be vulnerable. Vulnerable to ordering pizza. It's come down to that kind of science. The ad. And maybe some of you have already seen this. The ad might even say, light on groceries or is your fridge empty? And then they would put up a QR code on the app or the website. And like I said, some people said that they've already seen these.

[Mo]

That's fun.

[Rod Ryan]

The campaign launched about a month ago. Ago. Now, we don't know if it's working or not, but they do pour a lot of money into this and these, these partnerships. All of these companies are working together and they say that their goal was to help to be helpful to hungry customers without being too creepy. This is really straddling that line.

[Mo]

Too creepy line.

[Rod Ryan]

But learning every habit you ever have at all times. Listen, we could. Every website is tracking where you go.

[Mo]

Your debit card is tracking everywhere you go.

[Rod Ryan]

Correct. I don't sit around and think about this stuff and it doesn't ruin my day. I just. Some of it's incredible. Some of it to me, I find completely incredible. But that's where these businesses are going. Next level. And they're part, hey, you have this ability to track this we need. You have this. And then I'm trying to do this. What if we all work together? They know when your fridge is running low and they're gonna. They're gonna say, don't go grocery shopping today. Order a pizza instead. It's kind of genius.

[Mo]

Genius and creepy, right? Yeah, it's genius.

[Rod Ryan]

Pretty amazing the stuff that's happening. My dad gave me a kidney and when that failed, he gave me another kidney and then a third kidney. Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads. Well, my dad left mom for a Brazilian stripper. And to all the smart dads too. Rod ryan on 945 the buzz 945 the buzz with two lead singers. Three days grace with kill me Fast. Buzz oin. That's it.

[Mo]

Thank you. Our first extreme heat warning of 2026 is now under our belts. Yesterday, Bay City 121 heat index value.

[Rod Ryan]

That's stupid.

[Mo]

It is stupid. Today we're well on our way to highs, but not that high. Heat index values peaking like between 105 and 110. We do have a 40% chance for scattered thunderstorm popping up later in the day. Scattered thunderstorms predicted for our Saturday as well. All right, nationally, U.S. and Iran peace talks have been postponed. We've been talking all week about how VP Vance was supposed to go to Switzerland to sign some stuff that's all been canceled. Why? Well, because of the intense new Israeli strikes in Lebanon that have cast further doubt over efforts to end the war. Rod, I know we're all annoyed by the mass maxing trends. Kids, put a word before maxing, and every time I see a new one, I'm like, what in the hell is that? Yeah, we're Googling it.

[Rod Ryan]

It's happening a lot.

[Mo]

Well, it turns out Google just released their list of the most annoying maxing trends based on what we're all looking up. And the number one of the year is friction maxing.

[Rod Ryan]

You talked about that one earlier. Yes, like doing things the difficult way.

[Mo]

Yeah, like taking a cold shower.

[Rod Ryan]

Give me another one.

[Mo]

Deleting delivery apps. Another maxing.

[Rod Ryan]

I want to know if I'm Maxing at anything.

[Mo]

Cortisol maxing. Living in a way that seems designed to maximize stress hormones, like overworking, doom, strolling. Or maybe sleeping in too late.

[Rod Ryan]

I might be doing that. Well, I'm not sleeping in. Give me another maxing.

[Mo]

Chud Maxing was the number three most Googled this year.

[Rod Ryan]

Chudding. What's chud?

[Mo]

Chud, Alex.

[Rod Ryan]

What's chud? You know these things. Do not know.

[Mo]

Ironically, embracing the taste of habits or aesthetic that is associated with uncultured Internet chuds. Example, eating gas station food like you're a chud.

[Rod Ryan]

If you do that, wearing cargo shorts, you're a chud.

[Mo]

Or sharing loud opinions online. People that do that are chuds. So if you're chud maxing, you're making fun of those people and doing it as well.

[Rod Ryan]

Is anybody chatting in this room? Sharing loud opinions online under an assumed name?

[Mo]

Hey, Shark Week kicks off next Friday. That used to be so cool. And they're trying so hard. Discovery Channel just announced their lineup of content, and the major headline this year is K Pop. No joke. Their first special that's really Friday is called K Pop Sharky Rose.

[Rod Ryan]

They're trying everything they can to stay cool, I guess.

[Mo]

Yeah, for a while. It was cool for a long time.

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, Shark Week's been going on for 30 years. Maybe longer. Yeah.

[Mo]

Yeah. I don't know if K Pop's going to do it for him, but if you want to see the full lineup, we've got it posted.

[Rod Ryan]

Is the Sharks on oic? Is that featured this year?

[Mo]

There are some ridiculous things. Jaws versus Orca, Jurassic Sharks. No OIC this time. I spent my morning commute committed to getting all the tea from Jelly Roll straight from the source.

[Rod Ryan]

So Jelly put out a post when he was at a concert.

[Mo]

He was at a concert the only

[Rod Ryan]

time I mentioned this. Yes, I doubt that.

[Mo]

And he said, this is the only time I'm going to address the whole divorce thing. If you want all the details, follow my wife, because they're still technically married. Follow Bunny's podcast. She's telling the truth is what he said on stage last night.

[Rod Ryan]

He did a commercial for her podcast, if you want to find out what's going on.

[Mo]

Yeah, so I will. I listen to the podcast.

[Rod Ryan]

Obviously, we're being played. We're being played on this whole thing.

[Mo]

Basically, they're claiming they're still best friends. They got into an argument over Mother's Day weekend. She yelled at him, filed divorce.

[Rod Ryan]

I dare you.

[Mo]

So he did. She wasn't blindsided. She just not what she would have picked for her life. Right. She didn't want to get a divorce. They both are saying and standing by the fact that no one cheated. He is dating other people. And despite the divorce, they're planning to go through with their attempt to have a child together. They're in the middle of ivf. Okay, got it. Now you know everything I know. Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

We're being played. Go ahead, Alex. At the World cup yesterday, Czechia and South Africa played to a 11 draw. Switzerland beat Bosnia 4 1, Canada blew out Qatar 6 to nothing, and Mexico got by South Korea 1 nothing. Team USA is going to play their second World cup game today when they take on Australia in Seattle this afternoon. That'll kick off at 2 o' clock and you can watch the game on Fox. In baseball, the Astros are back in action. Tonight. They're going to open up a weekend series at the Guardians at Dyken Park. Tatsuya ime is going to be on the mound for the stro's going up against Cleveland's Tanner Bybee. First pitch is at 7:10. You can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk 790. That is what's going on in sports. Houston's rock, Houston's alternative and home of

I was talking to Chili earlier, but I was listening to the show earlier. I guess I thought I was talking to some guy talking about property and the hill country. I don't know.

Brought to you by Disney and Pixar's Toy Story 5, now playing only in theaters. The Rod Ryan Morning Show, 6 to 10am The Buzz 94. 5 the Buzz Good Morning Rod Ryan Show. I'll get back to your phone calls. Open phones Friday, my favorite hour of radio on the radio radio. But first, online, it's Alex online 94. 5 the mud. All right, what you got over there today? Well, I saw a video of a dog on the news, and that dog was swimming and it found a tree in the water and it was trying to grab a branch and bring it in, but it was a tree, so it wasn't doing that. The branch, like a dog would retrieve a stick out of the water. He grabbed the stick, but it was still attached to the tree. The boy's just driving water. So that made me think of an old AOL that I. I decided to bring back today. It's Stick Nation. I don't know if you Stick Nation, but before we've done Stick Nation, where it is an entire Instagram account that is entirely dedicated to people finding cool sticks and then sharing them with the rest of Stick Nation. And they'll start like, what's up, Stick Nation? I found this. It kind of looks like a hammer. I was on a walk with my dog. He likes it. This is pretty cool. Sometimes the dog is carrying it, sometimes it is the Dog that found this stick and is. Is showing you the stick. But it's cool. Just. You want to see cool sticks. I actually did a cool stick competition for my podcast where we did our Christmas show. I was there. Everybody had to bring sticks, and it was. It was a lot of fun. So sometimes you find a cool stick you got to share with the world. And this is what all these people did. Go check it out. World famous Rod Ryan show [e-mail]. thank you. Sticks were a big part of my growing up. Sticks are cool. There was no Internet share when I was a kid. It was the Internet, all the sticks, Internet. So phones are ringing. Hey, you're in luck. It's open phones Friday. Let's go. I think it's August on the phone. Hi, August. Good morning. Hello. Hey, good morning. You're on open phone Friday. You were live on the radio. Just to be clear, you called us. Okay, go. Do you got. Dude, I'll be darned. Hey, I didn't. I didn't really have anything. I just wanted to call and say happy freaking Friday. Happy freaking Friday, dude. Back at you, man. I hope you have the best weekend. Thank you. Ray. Her name is Ray.

[Mo]

Would you. Her name is Ray. Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Would you please get it right?

[Mo]

I get it right every time.

[Rod Ryan]

Hey, Most got it right. You got it wrong. What's up, mama? It's Ray. I know it's Ray. Good morning. What do you got? Yes, so I want to. I got two quick things. One, I wanted to confirm what Brother Rob ROV was hearing. Yeah. Because when I called for God smack tickets, when I was on hold, it was on hold for another radio station.

[Mo]

Thank you for telling us.

[Rod Ryan]

I was so confused. Wait a minute.

[Mo]

We would have never known that unless you told us.

[Rod Ryan]

I was like, what? So right before you were on hold, you've been on hold for a bit. So thank you. Thank you for that. The whole time you're on hold, you're hearing a completely different radio station. So this time it didn't do that. But when I called for God's tickets in May, by the way, the concert was awesome. I was on hold, and it was

[Mo]

a different radio station.

[Rod Ryan]

It was like a country radio station or something. I mean, I thought I had heard it.

[Mo]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

I thought I had heard everything, and then. All right, well, listen, Brother Rob, he sounded a little out of it. Maybe he was the most.

[Mo]

Maybe we owe you an apology.

[Rod Ryan]

He was the most intimate guy there is. Thank you. Quick shout out, too. So I work in the field of aba. Therapy for kids with autism and what we do is not easy. And just seeing how my co workers are handling it with grace and patience is like I just want to give a shout out to them. We're action behavior centers. But everyone in this field just does amazing work for these kids and is literally changing their lives and it is not an easy job. No, it doesn't sound easy. I'm telling you right now, nothing about that sounds easy. That's a great shout out. Thank you for doing what you do. Okay, Ray. No problem. I. I love it and it's. It's the best job I've had like ever in my life, so. Oh, I love hearing that. Have an awesome weekend. Ry. Ray.

[Mo]

It's right, it's.

[Rod Ryan]

It's Ray. I know that. Robert. See? Nice and easy. Robert. I know. This is Robert. Robert, Good morning. Hey, good morning, man. How you doing? I'm doing great, man. I'm so glad that you made it through on open phones Friday. What do you want to talk about? Hey, I've got a great dadism for you that you haven't said yet. They told me not to cuss, but it's a word you've already said on. On the air this morning. Uhoh. So my dad, every time we'd have an argument, would say, you're talking like a man with a paper ass. I still don't know what it means to this day.

[Mo]

What does that mean?

[Rod Ryan]

I don't. It does. You don't ask him idea. You don't ask questions. Okay.

[Mo]

Just let. Dad. Dad.

[Rod Ryan]

You're just like, okay. That's what dad said. This is so much fun to read. I mean, these are great. If anybody wants to call in with. With their what their dad said or what they, you know, were known for saying. It's so fun to read these. It's been on Facebook all morning long. People have been sharing what their dad said. Not everything makes sense, Robert. We don't ask questions. They. They're just. They're dead. They're dad isms. And what we let them be. Thank you for showing sharing that today. I appreciate it. Friend on, friend off. I don't even know where he's at right now. This is Eli, everybody. Eli, you got an anniversary going on this weekend? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. What. What anniversary is it? My third year anniversary with Kitty. Oh man. Congratulations.

[Mo]

Three years celebrate.

[Rod Ryan]

You guys were together a while before that, weren't you? Nine years. Yeah, I thought that was of those like he had been with her forever because we've known Eli for A while, but, yeah. Three years.

[Mo]

Who?

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, you don't got to get into it, but nine years together was one of you putting it off more than the other? It was both of us. It was.

[Mo]

Okay, that's good.

[Rod Ryan]

What happened? Did somebody finally say, hey, let's. This is ridiculous. We've been dating nine years. Let's just get married already. It. That was my fault.

[Mo]

Thank you for taking accountability.

[Rod Ryan]

What's so funny? The. The day we got married, we called y' all just like 15 minutes before we got inside the courtroom. Unbelievable. I remember the call. I remember when he called, he said, yeah. And I'm like, it's about time you kids are getting married, for God's sakes. Been together forever. What are you doing to celebrate? We're probably gonna go out of town for a little bit, Just get out of the city, and then, you know, we're setting up for something big next year. Okay. All right, brother. Well, listen, you, kitty, have a good time for getting out of the city. You think you'd have a plan and just go get a car, drive, let's go. To be that footloose and fancy free. I don't know what that's like. Rick, good morning. Hey, good morning, Rod. Rick, you're on the air, man. Open phones Friday. What you got for us? Hey, so I call in about my daughter that plays the bass. Ariana. She plays the bass at the school of rock. She got a sideband playing going on. It's called the project. And they were playing yesterday in League City doing a little in front of a garage, practicing. And they called the cops on them, and the cops came and shut them down. They were too loud. Oh, five. Oh, she got her first 5, 0 bust being in the band. Dude, that's rock and roll and out of control. That's a great story. Yes. And they only 10, 12, 13. And they were 2. And the cop said, hey, I thought that was the radio playing back there. He goes, y' all guys are good. Can I ask you this? I'm sure you asked, and I don't know if they're able to give it up. Do you say, hey, which who called?

[Mo]

Who told on us?

[Rod Ryan]

Do they tell you who called her? So, no, they did not. It was an anonymous complaint. All right. I hope you feel good about yourself calling the cops on Ted year olds. Good morning Rod Ryan show. Who's this? All morning, Allah.

[Mo]

All morning.

[Rod Ryan]

Alina. That was you got your name from the hit the post game.

[Mo]

Post game.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes, sir. Yeah, I remember that. What's going On. You're on for open phones. So I just wanted to say one. I been doing that, Kelsey with my husband and the fight at the White House, I ended up winning like 40 something dollars on that last fight. Yeah, it was freak. Yeah, it was cool. But another thing to hurry up, but. So nine years ago, I went through some stuff and I lost my kids. And I've been having to do supervision, watching them, like having me watch being watched around them and stuff. And today is going to to be the first out of nine years that they will be in my home, all three together, without anybody looking over us. Oh, my God. And it feels so amazing, like I'm on cloud nine right now. So I just wanted to kind of go on here and be like anybody that's went through addiction or anything like that. Don't give up. It's possible. Just keep pushing. And you gotta know. You gotta know how special that's going to be today. And you don't ever, ever, ever want to get yourself in another bad situation. You know that, right? Yes, sir.

[Mo]

Oh, it's for the kids.

[Rod Ryan]

Way to go.

[Mo]

We're proud of you.

[Rod Ryan]

Way to turn it around. Wow, that's gonna be a tough one.

[Mo]

Holy moly.

[Rod Ryan]

That's gonna be a tough one to top. Open phones Friday. I got a couple of lines open. 713-212-5945. You guys are killing it. Happy Father's Day. To day, the world's greatest dad. Well, the only dad I've ever had, really. And to all the other dads out there who are almost as good, probably don't beat yourself up. The Rod ryan show on 94. 5 the buzz. 94. 5 the buzz.

The Collector's Firearm song is on the radio all the time. I need to know if anybody else has it stuck in their head at work, at home, and when they're in the sheets, because that's all I hear in my head all day. I text mo quotes from Collector's firearms daily.

[Mo]

We are Big fans.

[Rod Ryan]

Clara West.

[Mo]

It's a bop.

[Rod Ryan]

It's so good. Let me tell you. You know who's gonna love this call? Clara. Clara is gonna love right now.

[Mo]

Gabriel, you're on the inside, friend. Oh, you're in our group chat.

[Rod Ryan]

Thank you, Gabriel. Jessica. Good morning. Good morning. Send that to Brad. Chili. All right. Jessica. Hi. You're on the air. Oh, boy. Oh, hi. Hi. Good morning. What you got for us? I have a. I have a couple of dadisms. Oh, yeah, These have been funny. I. I have loved this playing in the background of our show all day today. I put up this morning on Facebook. Tell me something that your dad said to you. Tell me. Give me something a dad ism. Something your dad used. My dad would say, fits like socks on a rooster. And that translated to, you can make it happen, but you're going to have to fight tooth and nail to make it happen. Yeah. And probably you're going to.

[Mo]

To get hurt.

[Rod Ryan]

That's a great saying. The second one was, does the cat have a rubber ass? And the answer that is only under special circumstance because a rubber cat does. You know what? I love him. Dad's undefeated. Although nobody sounds as crazy as the dad that I talked about. My friend's dad that said.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

That a grenade would take us all out. That was a pretty good one, though. That one stumped me if you missed it. We're. We're. We're young kids, and I know. I don't think his dad was in the war. His dad was in the military. For sure he was in the war. Every day we be sitting around playing cards or playing, like a game or something. He'd walk in the room, he'd say, a grenade would take all of you out right now and then leave the room. Who says that to young kids?

[Mo]

They're playing a board game.

[Rod Ryan]

Like, should we. Did he lose a friend, like, to a grenade? Dude, I don't.

[Mo]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

It's one thing. On the playground, there was a grenade. Take them all out.

[Mo]

If it.

[Rod Ryan]

If it was said to us once, no big deal. It was said several times. When we're all hanging out, a grenade would take all of you out right now.

[Mo]

Saying it more.

[Rod Ryan]

Good morning. Good morning. Rod Ryan show. Who's this? Hello. Hi. What's your name? Oh, I'm sorry.

[Mo]

I didn't know.

[Rod Ryan]

This is Sean, by the way. I'm sorry. Hi, Sean. You're on the radio. So I. Well, first I wanted to say hey to me. Morning to everybody. Good morning, everybody. Thank you. I do listen every morning. But now that school is out, I've been missing the fresh out of bed because I just don't want to get up. Really. I don't blame you. Right.

[Mo]

So.

[Rod Ryan]

But what I really wanted to. I really. I really wanted to call in is because I love that Mo loved my. My hammer pick. Mo. I'm the teacher. I'm okay. I'm the one that. I'm the teacher. But I had to Thor hammer in my.

[Mo]

My hand.

[Rod Ryan]

There was a lot of Thor hammers. No, no, no. I'm just saying. But I was glad that because I'm a teacher, I really was glad that you guys are doing these things because I. As an elementary school teacher, there are so many kids that don't have anything, and I end up spending my own money on a lot of things for my students. Well, because I work at a title, because I work at a title. One campus. And they're supposed to get things that they need, but it doesn't always happen. Sean, thank you very much, very much for playing along with us teaching, doing the good work. I understand you're on some break. You're not getting up as early as you. As you used to. That's okay. But, yeah, we talk about this all the time when we're buying these school supplies and backpacks. We talk about teachers, money out of their pocket. Alex will tell you stories about his mom. All those years, how many times did you have to take just any teacher? Just ask any teacher how often they had to go into their own pockets to get something for somebody that needed it goes without. Not the kids. Yeah, it's just. Kids want to. Kids just want to fit in. I got to wrap this up, but I want to say hi to Kevin really quick, and then we're going to shut it down. Kevin, I've got seconds, but I wanted to say hi to you. How are you today? Doing fine, sir. I just wanted to call and thank my wife, Cheryl, of 36 years for putting up with me all this time. And in April, I was diagnosed with esophageal cancer, and she said, he'll be through a lot of it, dude. She never left your side, did she? So, no, never has. You know, we've got four kids, 16 grandkids, and three great grandsons. And I said, you got a lot to live for.

[Mo]

Yes, sir.

[Rod Ryan]
