We'll look at the weekend coming up. I'm sure Mo will tell us if it's bad.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Good morning, Mo. What you got? Houston's headlines.

[Mo]

Good morning. So yesterday the Trump administration announced that the US Will not renew the United Mexico Canada agreement. That's like a trade deal that the President negotiated during his first term. He since accused both neighbors of ripping off the United States and saying they need to treat us better. So trade deficits were also listed as one of the reasons that the US Is not agreeing to renew this deal in its current form. It will stay in effect until a new deal is reached. Most likely feels like 102 for Thursday. Yeah, a little lower than we've had the rest of the week, but it's because of cloud cover. Yes, that 40 to 60% chance of scattered rain today. Most likely looking like between 1 and 5pm Scattered showers, thunderstorms producing heavy rain, lightning, winds, especially this afternoon. One of the top headlines yesterday was that daredevil couple that climbed to the top of the Empire State Building.

[Rod Ryan]

Everywhere.

[Mo]

Yeah, they got engaged before being taken into police custody. We now know the Russian pair actually known online for their death defying skyscraper climbs. They're professionals.

[Caller Megan]

Okay.

[Mo]

1454ft above the ground. And they actually chronicled yesterday's climb on social media, sharing close ups of the proposal and the engagement ring.

[Rod Ryan]

What is. I mean that's what I want to find out. What is the. Was the. Was the squeeze worth the juice? How long are they going to jail for?

[Mo]

Yeah, we don't know yet. Right.

[Rod Ryan]

What's the fine?

[Mo]

I mean surely they know.

[Rod Ryan]

Is it $50,000?

[Mo]

No idea.

[Rod Ryan]

More.

[Mo]

And is it worth it for their social media whatever they do?

[Rod Ryan]

And you go to jail for three months, do you go to jail for a week?

[Mo]

Great question.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know any of those things.

[Mo]

No, we'll find out more as those charges are pending.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

Hey, TMZ threw us a ringer yesterday when they ran with the speculation that the wedding won't be at Madison Square Garden tomorrow.

[Rod Ryan]

What wedding you talking about?

[Mo]

Oh, this one. Taylor Swift, Travis Kelsey, the wedding. Gotcha. This guy on the show, well known memorabilia collector, seemed a little sus. Now he's claiming he's just a plus one to the wedding, but we'll see. I did see the headline yesterday as I know you're betting on the length of the wedding. 10 hours from doors open to end of reception. So that in the overrun jar, it's awful. I mean if you think about it, that's not crazy. Doors open at 3:30. So ceremony is probably at 4:30, right? You need to get there, get a Receipt, get in. 3:00am yeah, okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Sounds disgusting.

[Mo]

You know the saying that money talks? I thought Elton John had enough money, but apparently he can use some more. He said back in 2018 he would never be a hologram after he died. But he just signed a multi million dollar deal for a hologram show at the new Hard Rock in Las Vegas. Not dead yet.

[Rod Ryan]

And technology has changed a lot.

[Mo]

Technology has changed. So I'm sure I've said some things that I've come around and changed my mind about. But Elton John and Dua Lipa part of this new resource.

[Rod Ryan]

They might be offering so much money that he just can't say no.

[Mo]

Can't say no. We'll find out. Those are Houston Sunlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, Alex.

[Alex]

That's right in the world, guys. You know, sometimes things may not be going your way, but then you got the United States men's national team, and they can beat Bosnia 2N even when they're shorthanded. They did take down Bosnia advance the round of 16. Flo Baligun and Malik Tillman scored the two goals for the U.S. baligan also got sent off with an absolute BS red card, and the U.S. had to play down a man for about the last 30 minutes. They did still score a goal because we don't care. And we're American. We're the best. They're not going to play Belgium on Monday night in the round of 16. Let's go. USA Baseball. Astros lost to the Twins last night, 8 to 3. They're going to have a day off before opening up a weekend series with the Rays tomorrow night. That is what's going on in sports.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. So one of the conversations we had yesterday, like what famous person, like people are paying extra money to be in the proximity of like their fa, their favorite movie star or musician or something like that. So what did you have to add to that?

[Caller Megan]

So my pappy was the last stonemason of his kind. He did everything by hand. And he got to be buried in the Texas State Cemetery. And he was allowed to go in and pick his plot. So he made the Texas State seals by hand. He made a bunch of monuments for all the bushes. And in the Texas State Cemetery he made several of the monuments by hand. And so the president honored him by telling him that you can come to the Texas State Cemetery Pick out your plot. And allowed him to do that. He went for a stroll, found the first owner of the Dallas Cowboys and said, I need to be buried next to because I gotta have someone to talk to if I'm gonna be in here.

For some reason these guys aren't going to be here on Monday. So join me on Tuesday as I make it win number three. Not for some reason. For mo reasons. Thank you, mom.

[Caller Megan]

Mo.

[Rod Ryan]

Mo gave us Monday off. Really nice of you. Let's see. I told you that if you joined us in homeroom you would have a shot at motionless and white tickets. And we're gonna do that. 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. I'm not saying it's a pressure cooker when I come in in the morning, but there's just certain things that I need to do. Gotta get up in the morning sometimes. Sometimes I prepare things the night before. A lot of times I prepare things the night before because I don't want to come in in the morning. Just in case something happens. But I get my fun facts together, you know, sometimes a little early, sometimes in the morning. But when I walk in and I get an email like Carlos, I go, you know what? It's gonna be a great day. Carlos sent me a couple of great fun facts today.

[Mo]

Okay, thanks, Carlos.

[Rod Ryan]

So I'm only on the hook for one. He sent me two that are really, really good.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Good.

[Rod Ryan]

Says, good morning, brother Rod. I got two fun facts that work perfectly for what's been talked about on the news recently. That's truck driver Carlos. Okay, fun fact number one from Carlos. Hey, Hal. Now, if you would have sent me one, I wouldn't have to do any work.

[Caller]

Well, give me a minute.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, Carlos. According to Carlos, Disney Cruise Lines. Anybody interested in that mo? Disney Cruise Lines are the only ships allowed to use fireworks at sea because their leftover debris turns into fish food. So it is safe for the environment.

[Alex]

I don't know how that works.

[Mo]

They've, like, patented the fireworks or something. I've read about this.

[Rod Ryan]

Disney has thought of everything, man.

[Caller]

Just a bunch of stuff from the garbage disposal, maybe.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, are you cool with fireworks being blown off on a ship?

[Mo]

Yes. Judge me.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm Ron Burgundy.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Another fun fact from Carlos. Shinedown has now performed simple man more times than Leonard Skynyrd. That is fun.

[Caller]

Okay, but they're really good at it.

[Rod Ryan]

They're really, really good at it. This really makes people mad when I say it's better than the original. It is. Sorry.

[Caller]

Remember the first time?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Caller]

It was awesome.

[Rod Ryan]

Hal and I saw them in Vegas opening up for Van Halen right before.

[Caller]

They were on the side stage.

[Rod Ryan]

Side stage. You're right.

[Caller]

Buzzfest. It was jaw dropping. It was awesome.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. To think of Shinedown on the side stage at Buzzfest, it's crazy. All right, here's a fun fact I brought in. The Caesar salad was once voted by the International Society of Epicures in Paris as the greatest recipe to originate from the Americas in 50 years. That's neat. Now, listen.

[Mo]

Thanks, guys.

[Rod Ryan]

I like a Caesar salad like the next guy here. Is that them? Is that. Is that a backhanded compliment?

[Mo]

That's how it felt like.

[Rod Ryan]

Seems like that our food sucks and the only thing we are good at

[Mo]

is the last 50 years salads.

[Rod Ryan]

Thanks for nothing. 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. I go wedge over Caesar salad any day of the week, too. Maybe. Do we like the wedge?

[Mo]

Because we love Blue cheese.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes, we do.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

What you giving away?

[Mo]

Okay. I have a pair of tickets to see Motionless in White. They're gonna be with Lorna Shore, Fit for a King and Static dress in the Woodlands on July 25th. And these tickets can be yours if you know this flashback.

[Rod Ryan]

It's your fun back flashback. Everybody on the show but me is dealing with armadillos. Yeah, I am. I am not coming across them. I may have only seen one or two. I've been here 22 years. I may have only seen one or two armadillos. Crazy in the wild.

[Mo]

I'm gonna start sending you pictures now.

[Rod Ryan]

The most common species of armadillos are the nine banded armadillo. And we talked about them giving birth and how crazy that maybe that's why we have so many armadillos. But what did we learn Yesterday about the nine banded armadillo? 713-212-5945. It's now time for rock out with your stock.

[Alex]

Out with Captain Cash.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, money honey. Markets are open today, not tomorrow.

[Caller]

They're open on Monday, but.

[Rod Ryan]

They are open on Monday. But Mo gave us the day off.

[Caller]

Good for her.

[Mo]

Do you need the day off?

[Moto Casino Announcer]

How?

[Rod Ryan]

No, I can't take it.

[Alex]

Okay.

[Chili]

Sorry.

[Rod Ryan]

Wow. You don't have to come in though. We're not gonna be here.

[Caller]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Unless you want to come in. Just hang out. I'll leave you the key.

[Caller]

Oh, thanks.

[Rod Ryan]

94.5The Buzz Good morning, Rod Ryan show.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

It's your fun back.

[Caller]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

One of our phone lines is working. Hello, Rod Ryan show.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Good morning.

[Rod Ryan]

Good morning, sir. The most common species of armadillos is this. William. Yes.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

I always like to know who I'm talking with. The most common species of armadillos, William, is the nine banded armadillo. And we talked about them giving birth. Birth. What was the fun fact about that? They have identical quadruplets every time they give birth. Identical quadruplets.

[Mo]

Nightmare nuts.

[Rod Ryan]

William, you're the big winner today. What are you giving them?

[Mo]

Hey, William, we've got tickets for you to see Motionless and White on July 25th in the Woodlands. Congratulations.

[Chili]

Appreciate it.

[Alex]

Thank you, William.

[Rod Ryan]

Have the best fourth of July weekend, man. Thank you for listening. Y' all as well.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Be safe.

[Rod Ryan]

Thank you, William. Okay, Mo, what you got for Houston's headlines?

[Mo]

Hey, Rod. The Trump administration announced yesterday that the US Will not renew the United States Mexico Canada agreement. This is that trade deal that the President negotiated during his first term. He has since accused both neighbors of ripping off the United States, saying they need to treat us better. I see trade deficits listed as one of the reasons the US Is not agreeing to renew the deal in its current form.

[Chili]

Hey.

[Mo]

Last night, Harris county authorities finally charged that Tesla driver in connection to that deadly vehicle crash when it crashed into the home and Katy last month.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, what, what? What did they come up with?

[Mo]

So the 44 year old officially been charged with manslaughter.

[Rod Ryan]

He was trying to blame the malfunctioning car and I'm telling you, there's so much data on those cars now. Yeah, you can't blame the vehicle. They know exactly what's happening with those cars.

[Mo]

Told authorities he was on autopilot, veered off the road, sped into a brick home, killing a woman. The crash remains under investigation. Harris County Sheriff's Office, but it's also been opened by the National. National Transportation Safety Board just to kind of look further into it.

[Rod Ryan]

So it's his fault, not the car.

[Mo]

Okay, I kind of need a poll for this next one. A new survey says that during summer, the average American. Are you ready for this? Eats 11 scoops of ice cream a week. No, thank you. No, I was like, am I underdoing it?

[Rod Ryan]

Apparently, we all are. Unless Alex is eating 11 scoops.

[Alex]

Absolutely.

[Mo]

11 scoops in a week. Okay, then this Next one is 95% of Americans admitting to eating one scoop per week. At least in the summer.

[Alex]

I go weeks without it.

[Mo]

Same.

[Rod Ryan]

I go weeks without ice cream.

[Mo]

I mean, I always have it, but it's just not what I go to.

[Rod Ryan]

Who did the survey?

[Mo]

Tillamook.

[Rod Ryan]

Do they make ice cream and cheese the best cheese? They do make the best cheese, yeah. But they're for putting out this survey.

[Mo]

It's rude, and it makes us all question what we're doing. I did like that. Cookies and cream is their favorite flavor for Gen Z, millennials, and Gen X.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, we all agree on something.

[Mo]

We're ice cream.

[Rod Ryan]

And what is the end game? Like, let me put this out there so that people feel like they're not eating enough, and they all eat more.

[Mo]

It seems rude, and it makes us question surveys. You know what I'm saying?

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, my God. Everybody's eating more ice cream than me. I better step it up.

[Mo]

Who did y' all ask?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, this is silly.

[Mo]

Thank you.

[Rod Ryan]

It should be a little illegal to put out a survey like that.

[Mo]

When I say Jomine Ramsey, do you have any sort of feelings?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it's Katy Perry.

[Alex]

Tragic.

[Mo]

Thanks, Alex. Thanks for that one.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, okay. It's not Katy Perry. Did you ever see that?

[Mo]

I saw that.

[Rod Ryan]

People thought it was, like, Katy Perry.

[Mo]

Netflix just picked up the murder of JonBenet Ramsey. It's a series that's been looking for a home, and now Netflix wants to make it happen.

[Rod Ryan]

Is there still an audience for this?

[Alex]

Oh, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Really?

[Alex]

True crime. Anything? People are gonna.

[Mo]

It's gonna drop this winter, likely around the 30th anniversary of her killing. 30 years, and it's still, like, on my heart.

[Rod Ryan]

But is there new stuff I Don't know.

[Mo]

Her mom died.

[Alex]

That guy claimed to be the killer. And then they spent it. That was a lie.

[Mo]

A lie. Melissa McCarthy is actually in the series.

[Rod Ryan]

Melissa McCarthy.

[Caller Megan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

She signed on into it. Isn't that interesting? Let's talk about Youngblood. I know you're obsessed. You love him.

[Rod Ryan]

I think he's cool. I think he's a cool dude.

[Mo]

He decided to address a viral moment he had over the weekend. So he was performing at his own Blood Fest 2026 past weekend.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, this is the breakdown on stage.

[Mo]

Yes. And there are video circulating, popping up of it. But he finally reposted some of the images and a very lengthy caption. He became so visibly overwhelmed. Like pent up emotions that had been bottled up for years. And he just like lost it while he was performing. You kind of have to feel for him. It's all been happening really fast. Yeah. The lubbering, crying.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. And you know what? Girls love it.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Like, oh, I so appreciate your vulnerability. I so appreciate you never let him see you sweat, man. That's what I thought as a performer.

[Mo]

And cry. Yeah, yeah. Shirtless, obviously.

[Chili]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Chicks love that stuff.

[Mo]

You can read his full post because there's not enough time in the day.

[Alex]

He's jacked. If he's shirtless and he's jacked, it's like, it's okay if it was me doing it.

[Mo]

Here's running down his bare chest.

[Rod Ryan]

Thanks for being real. I'm real with you guys every day. I'm just not blubbering on the air.

[Mo]

It was blubber ring.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Hey.

[Mo]

Those are Houston's headlines.

[Alex]

He didn't get the light tight and bright message.

[Mo]

No, there's not nothing about them.

[Chili]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

I watched a complete soccer game yesterday from start to finish.

[Mo]

Nice.

[Chili]

Yeah.

[Alex]

And were you happy and then also mad and then very happy again during that game?

[Rod Ryan]

In that order? Yes.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Because that red card really kind of threw me. I'm like, wow. I don't see anyone else getting a red card. And I didn't see our guy do anything worse.

[Alex]

I saw a couple attempted murders happen after that. They didn't get red cards, but that's okay.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yeah.

[Alex]

We beat Bosnia 2 nil. Flo Baligan and Malik Tillman scored the two goals for the U.S. baligan also got sent off with a ridiculous red card that should not have been a red card at all. You guys had to play down a man for about the last 30 minutes of the game. We still did score on a free kick. That was the coolest goal ever. I'VE watched the Spanish call of that goal a bunch.

[Rod Ryan]

It's good.

[Alex]

Probably close to 100 times this morning. It's awesome. So shout out to Team usa. They're now going to play Belgium on Monday night in the round of 16. In baseball, the Astros lost to the Twins 83 last night. They're gonna have a day off before opening up a weekend series with the Rays tomorrow night. That is what's going on in the sports.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, here we go. Is it gonna work?

[Alex]

Let's hope.

[Rod Ryan]

Let me try this. No, nothing works.

[Mo]

Of course.

[Rod Ryan]

That's cool.

[Mo]

Happy day.

[Caller]

Awesome.

[Alex]

Everybody's on vacation.

[Rod Ryan]

Blues Traveler hook could be in first place.

[Mo]

It is.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, Alex, that's your tune.

[Alex]

I don't really care.

[Rod Ryan]

You don't care? I thought you liked that song. I thought you were like a Blues Traveler.

[Alex]

I like it. I don't. I want to hear other songs too.

[Rod Ryan]

Pod South Town would be in second place and then whole celebrity skin to be in third place. Does that seem like the order?

[Mo]

Yep.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, we'll. We'll place song clips and we'll talk a little bit more specifically on what you guys are voting for. But you do that on the world famous Rod Ryan show blog [e-mail]. Watch the complete soccer game yesterday, start to finish in my house. Yeah, I watched the American Australian game, but I Was in a bar.

[Moto Casino Advertiser]

[Rod Ryan]

That Bob Denver song hits.

[Alex]

Man, I don't like it in a knockout game. Take me home. Like, I don't want to go home in a knockout game.

[Chili]

Freebird.

[Alex]

It should have been Freebird. It always should have been Freebird. It should have never not been Freebird.

[Rod Ryan]

You could hear it sprinkled in. And they ended up playing it because I thought it was weird they played an Elvis song after that.

[Mo]

What was the Elvis song? I know you're.

[Rod Ryan]

I can't do it right now. Cuz I got this in my head. It was Elvis and then Freebird.

[Alex]

It should always be Freebird.

[Rod Ryan]

I think those were. You probably couldn't hear. You were out watching the game.

[Alex]

Yeah, I went to the bar and

[Rod Ryan]

Infuriated and fun wasn't Suspicious minds. It wouldn't have been that. Tell me what. Tell me what?

[Alex]

Elvis saw Vegas.

[Rod Ryan]

It was not Viva Las Vegas.

[Alex]

Little last conversation.

I did, yes. That was fantastic.

[Rod Ryan]

It was fantastic. Let's take a list.

[Alex]

In the background. Yeah, yeah.

He does two of them back to back.

[Alex]

Leak. Stillman.

[Rod Ryan]

Two of those back to back.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

[Alex]

Only the good ones. Yeah, a lot of them.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yeah, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

That was. What would you call that? Was that a penalty kick? It was a free kick. It was a free kick.

[Alex]

Penalty kick is inside the box.

[Chili]

Okay.

[Alex]

Like right in front.

[Rod Ryan]

So the free kick.

[Alex]

Free kick is outside the box.

[Rod Ryan]

Guys standing in the way. I mean, it had to be a perfect kick. I mean, it was just.

[Alex]

I think it was the second free kick goal we've had. Dang in a knockout game, or maybe not a knockout game, but in a World cup game or something like that.

[Rod Ryan]

I. You know, all this stuff's showing up on my feet, and I've seen a Lionel Messi kick that went around a dude's head by, like, a centimeter. And it went. And it. He bent it in.

[Alex]

Yeah. Messi, Beckham, and, like, Ronaldo, those guys are known for doing that.

[Rod Ryan]

This was perfect. Like that, though. It was a perfect. The placement of the ball and how he had control over it and where he had to put it. It was unbelievable.

[Alex]

It moved when. When I saw that, that goal, it moved.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, so U.S. advances.

[Alex]

We're on the Belgians, who got. Who got lucky because the ref screwed Senegal over. So we got screwed yesterday. Belgian won because somebody else got screwed. So we're due.

[Rod Ryan]

We're playing in Seattle.

5 the Buzz. Good morning, Broad Ryan Show. You got a new podcast up, Alex.

[Alex]

Brand new podc.

[Rod Ryan]

It's up and ready to go.

[Alex]

It was an actual podcast that was captured on recording.

[Rod Ryan]

I know your ass wasn't podcasting last night because you were watching the game.

[Alex]

Okay, I was up yesterday, but, yeah, we Talked. World Cup, 4th of July. Where does the sky start? What kind of dinosaur would Will Ferrell be if he was a dinosaur? Is it more American to own a flag or a gun? Joey Chestnut. We learned a little bit more about him and then which founding father we thought would have the sickest podcast.

[Rod Ryan]

You guys had a lot to Talk

[Alex]

about lots of America themed stuff on this episode of Ask your baby.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, Links and guests, links and guests.

[Alex]

YouTube, wherever you get your podcast.

[Rod Ryan]

Perfect. All right, well, keep it going, dude. What's trending?

[Alex]

Taylor Swift is trending. She's getting married this week.

[Rod Ryan]

She sure is.

[Alex]

They're talking about it. So that's. That's the trend. Raphael Claus, the cowardly ref in yet last night's USA Bosnia game. Absolute scumbag. Hope nothing but the worst for that guy. But everybody's talking about what a POS he is because he gives out BS red cards and tries to screw the

[Mo]

US who are we talking about? Okay, got it.

[Rod Ryan]

And I'm not. Listen, I'm fully outing myself. Like the first soccer game that ever sat down and watched from start to finish. Why those little silly shoulder pads? Cuz he's a. I mean, do they all wear them?

[Alex]

Specifically him?

[Rod Ryan]

It seems a little weird. Did you notice it was like. It was like two olo sponges.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

That were on his shoulders. I mean, it looked like two little like tampons on his shoulders.

[Alex]

Yeah. It makes him feel special.

[Rod Ryan]

It looks weird.

[Alex]

Yeah, it's weird.

[Rod Ryan]

It seemed unnecessary.

[Mo]

Necessary.

[Alex]

I thought so too. I thought the red card also seemed unnecessary, but Raphael Claus did not think so.

[Rod Ryan]

What else?

[Alex]

Wimbledon is trending. People talk about everything going down over. Across the pond in Wimbledon. That is what's going. Or that's what's trending on 94. 5 the buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, can we. Can we do song clips coming up.

[Alex]

We can do that.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. And then taking a little heat for not being here tomorrow. It's not that people want us to work tomorrow. They do. They want us to. Those that are working, they want us to work. But they, they want to hear. And I'm gonna play this. It's. It doesn't fit, it doesn't work. But I'm just gonna play you the jaws drop because if we were working tomorrow, you would have heard this 6,000 times.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

For Christ's sake, tomorrow's the 4th of July. So. So that would have worked yesterday or that would have worked tomorrow if we were working. So if only we had something for today. For Christ's sake, in two days it's the 4th of July.

[Mo]

How did you do that?

[Alex]

You know what?

[Rod Ryan]

I gotta give credit where credit is due. Doug did like three things on this show and that was one of them. So there you go. If this gets back to Doug, tell him I said thank you. For Christ's sake, tomorrow's the 4th of July. Oh no. That's not the Doug one. Give me the Doug one again. It was good.

[Alex]

Oh,

[Rod Ryan]

Celebrity SK in. This was a really good album. Courtney Love wanted to be famous. She kind of cleaned herself up. She had some help from Billy Corgan from Smashing Pumpkins. Wanted to write. Wanted to write some bigger songs. Just wanted to bust out of the mold of being, you know, Kurt's wife. One of the things she did I on this album, she had a chick drummer, Patty Schnell. She got this big time producer for this album, and the producer said, lose the drummer. Oh, I'm not recording this album with her. She even went in and did all the drum tracks. And he goes, you either use my guy or I'm out of here. And you're thinking, okay, Courtney's gonna stick up for her girl. She goes, okay, bring in your guy. Totally destroy the drummer. It's like, I still want you to be my drummer. Still want you to go on a tour with me. But we're gonna bring in Dean Castronovo from Journey to play drums on the album. No credit to him. His name's not on the album. It says Patty's the drummer on the album. That happens all the time.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

It happens all the time. All right, where's whole celebrity skin? It's a great song.

[Mo]

Okay. It's Blues Traveler song is called Hook. It's a genius song about how you

[Alex]

can just have a cool hook and that's all people care about.

[Rod Ryan]

Yep. He says in the song, doesn't matter what I say, as long as you have the hook, people will listen. It's very meta. It's very. It's commentary on the music industry.

[Caller Megan]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

And they even said that they grabbed one of the most basic, frequently recycled chord progressions for the song. They used a formula. They wrote the song. It's called hook.

[Mo]

And it worked.

[Rod Ryan]

And it worked.

[Chili]

Yeah.

Empire titty.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

[Rod Ryan]

Like the Empire State building thing that's going on Empire titty. Like, hey, use that one.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

I can't.

[Rod Ryan]

You can't. Come on, email me please. Rodatthebuzz.com who's this?

[Mo]

Mo, this is Eric Church.

[Rod Ryan]

Eric Church.

[Caller Megan]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

He sounds like a guy that would have his own whiskey brand. So nothing new here. Eric Church has already had a whiskey brand, but he's got a limited edition. I thought this was interesting. A limited edition bottle for America's 250th birthday. Okay. It's called Legacy Batch 003, the Declaration. And it's. There's some ties here to George Washington. Hear me out. Whiskey nerds will understand all this. It blends three whiskeys including one that has a top note. Alex loved notes. He loves the notes from apple brandy barrels that were sourced directly From George Washington's own distillery in Mount Vernon.

[Mo]

Wow.

[Rod Ryan]

Now I know you guys are real serious about this stuff. Like, oh my God. Like these were the same barrels George Washington used. Yeah, it's a cool gimmick, but it's the same thing. Metallic. Metallica has a whiskey. Did you know this?

[Mo]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, so they have a whiskey and they, they make it and they play different Metallica songs in the distillery or wherever these kegs sit. And it vibrates them at different levels of vibration. And it's like people make, they make playlists and it affects the flavor of whiskey.

[Caller Megan]

Wow.

[Alex]

I don't believe any of that.

[Rod Ryan]

So anyways, to mark the 250th anniversary, they wanted to make something that is more a commemorative. It's supposed to be like a really cool bottle and stuff like that. Can you buy this anywhere?

[Mo]

I can't find it anywhere. It started retailed for 200, but now collectors are just like. Yeah, their minds.

[Rod Ryan]

Because that's. They're not, they're not drinkers, they're not alcoholics. They collect.

[Mo]

My husband, I dust the bottles.

[Rod Ryan]

My friend is now a collector of whiskey. I think we all know somebody that says they collect whiskey.

[Mo]

He goes to like random parking lots in people's back.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Like, yeah, trunks.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. Like there's like, there's some backyard alley deal for Pappy Winkle or something. I'm like, what?

[Mo]

We are, we're doing that? Yeah, we're doing that.

[Rod Ryan]

It's a, it's a crazy thing.

[Mo]

Everybody's got their thing.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, that's fine. So this stuff, you can't find no George Washington barrels?

[Mo]

Washington barrels.

[Caller Megan]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

It's George Washington apple brandy barrels. I bet you it's delicious. The Rod ryan Morning show. 6 to 10am the buzz. Here we go. 94, 5 the buzz Rod Ryan show. On this throwback Thursday, do you want to hear Blues Traveler, Hook Pod, south town or Holes Celebrity skin? Winning song is going to be played Today at night, 9:30. Before that we gotta play Read my lips. Last call. Well, it's not last call. I got about 15, 20 minutes. But in the next 15 or 20 I would like you to send me an email of some word suggestions that I could use for the game. Alex takes on the chile today and that's how you're gonna win your sold out stained tickets. Mo gets the day off from playing but has to be the timekeeper today. I know you don't mind that. Houston's headlines. What you got, Mo?

[Mo]

Good morning.

[Rod Ryan]

Morning.

[Mo]

So the Trump administration announced yesterday that the US Will not renew the United States Mexico Canada Agreement. That's the trade deal that the President negotiated himself during his last term. He since accused both neighbors of ripping off the US Saying they need to treat us better. I see trade deficits listed as one of the reasons why the US Is not agreeing to renew this deal. We'll see what happens. Feels like 102 for our Thursday highs. It's a little lower than we've been having, but that's because of today's cloud cover, which is not what I want to see. 40 to 60% chance of scattered rain today. Most likely. Still looking like it's going to be like 1 to 5pm ish. Scattered showers, thunderstorms possible. Let's just get it over with today and move on. You see what I'm saying? Like, can we just have like, okay. Whether the rest of the weekend.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, just like one day of heat dome.

[Mo]

Heat dome and storms. I'm talking like a rain. Rain is going to really mess up my weekend.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Sorry about that.

[Mo]

That daredevil couple that climbed to the top of the Empire State Building yesterday, people are still talking about it. They were taken into police custody. It was kind of like a spectacle upon spectacle. I couldn't stop watching Alex.

[Rod Ryan]

How long did it take when you first, first saw it and you're kind of, you're looking, you're looking, and then all of a sudden you go, wow, she looks pretty hot.

[Alex]

Like, they're both very hot.

[Chili]

Yeah.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Like they're very physically fit.

[Mo]

I was like, who would do such a thing?

[Alex]

Like, they're like, you wanted to be the worst people in the world. Like, damn it, they're so hot.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I'm, I'm watching 15 seconds.

[Alex]

And they didn't. They did Jimmy Hendrix lyrics on the Flag. They didn't do anything political. And I was kind of like, I'm on your side side now for that too.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm like, man, her body's banging.

[Alex]

Yeah, and then you're hot.

[Mo]

The Russian pair are actually known online for their death defying skyscraper climbs.

[Alex]

Yeah, I looked up all their stuff. They've done everything else.

[Mo]

I also looked at what could happen to them.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

They spend some time in jail because it is a felony.

[Rod Ryan]

How much time could they spend in jail?

[Mo]

It just says some significant time.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, Is that a couple months?

[Alex]

I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

Or years?

[Mo]

Felony traffic. Probably not going to happen. Right?

[Rod Ryan]

How'd they get up there? What door was left.

[Mo]

There was a door left open.

[Rod Ryan]

What door was left open.

[Mo]

And then surely someone Opened that for them.

[Rod Ryan]

That means there's an insider that works at the Empire State Building that is in on it.

[Mo]

They're professionals.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. Now, did they talk about what the fines could look like too?

[Mo]

That was in there. It's part of the felony since they broke into a place where they weren't supposed to trespass.

[Rod Ryan]

They're jail right now.

[Mo]

I saw them get taken into. Might have gotten bailed out.

[Alex]

Yeah, I feel like when you do something like this, you have your people, you're like, hey, I'm going to go do this. I know that. I'm going to get arrested.

[Mo]

Yeah, that's what I assumed.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know.

[Mo]

TMZ threw us a. A zinger yesterday. Rod, when it comes to the wedding.

[Rod Ryan]

Which wedding? Oh, the Taylor Swift wedding.

[Mo]

The wedding she's out of Travis Kelsey. TMZ had this guy on their show. He's a well known memorabilia collector and he has been in rooms with Taylor and Travis. So we're like, wait, does this guy know them? And he started saying that Madison Square Garden is not the venue. And I'm like, dude, who are you and why are you? I don't know. He was. I watched the interview and he. He just seemed very sus. I know. You're also betting on the length of the wedding headline yesterday.

[Rod Ryan]

If he was going, he's not going now.

[Mo]

Yeah, he was someone's plus one.

[Rod Ryan]

You start blabbing, he. He won't be allowed in there for sure.

[Alex]

They'll put you down.

[Mo]

I saw there's a no phone rule. They're checking him at the door.

[Alex]

There should be, obviously.

[Mo]

But betting on the length of the wedding. I don't know what the over under is, but 10 hours is what I'm saying. That's from wind doors open to wind doors close out for the reception.

[Rod Ryan]

What about the camera castle? Is the castle built?

[Mo]

Still being built.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

He says it's not. This insider says it's not happening at Madison Square Garden. There's too much activity at Madison Square Garden.

[Alex]

The afterparty could be happening there. So the reception could be at Madison Square Garden.

[Rod Ryan]

Who cares what they say? I do.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yeah.

[Alex]

I don't.

[Rod Ryan]

The parties at Madison Square Gard.

[Alex]

Really.

[Rod Ryan]

But would be to me, if they do that off campus. If the parties at Madison Square Garden, it's still out. The wet weddings at Madison Square Garden, you know?

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Mo]

It'd be a really cool flex if it wasn't Madison Square Garden.

[Alex]

Right.

[Mo]

You know the saying that money talks? Well, Elton John likes money. He did an interview back in 2018, saying he would never be a hologram after he died. And he just signed a multi million dollar deal for a hologram show at the New Hard Rock in Las Vegas. To be fair, not dead yet. He said he wouldn't do it after. After he died. But they are looking for something new, a whole experience shifting away from the traditional residency that we know Vegas to be good for. It's billed as a fully immersive experience. It's Elton John and Dua Lipa teamed up.

[Rod Ryan]

He might need the money. He's not. He's not known to be great with money.

[Mo]

At one point, I didn't know this.

[Alex]

I tried to watch his movie, but it sang the whole time.

[Rod Ryan]

He had a drug addiction. Everybody knows that. But even later on in life, he got into some money troubles and that was it came out that he was spending 700 a day on fresh flowers delivered to the house.

[Alex]

Guy likes flowers every day.

[Rod Ryan]

Fresh flowers, 700 bucks a day.

[Mo]

I know Kardashian thing.

[Rod Ryan]

I know you have all the money in the world, but that adds up. Yeah, I mean, you do that for.

[Mo]

And if that's what you're spending on flowers, what are you spending on food?

[Rod Ryan]

Today is like for like a week. You just make.

[Alex]

Make that in every Monday delivery.

[Rod Ryan]

He was doing that every day for a long time.

[Alex]

Maybe every three days. You can space it out.

[Rod Ryan]

The guy doing his charts and graph said, hey, bro, chill on the flowers.

[Alex]

We might be over on our flower budget.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Yeah.

[Mo]

So Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

He might need the money.

[Alex]

I want to see those flowers.

[Rod Ryan]

700 bucks a day. Never heard that. Take it, Alex.

[Alex]

Yesterday at the World Cup, Team USA beat Bosnia 2 nil. Flo Baligan and Malik Tillman scored the two US goals. And Baligan was also sent off with a red card. The US had to play down a man for about the last 30 minutes of the game. Still were able to get a goal out of that.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Can he get around to that belt to the deflection. Baligan scores Slow. Baligan. He'll do the LeBron celebration. It's one nil U.S. tillman. It's in. Malik Tillman, two nil United States.

[Alex]

And Baligan actually scored again before he scored. Before that, they called it off because of offsides. And then he was just like, watch this. I'm gonna go again and score. Yeah, we had two goals that were.

[Rod Ryan]

Didn't count.

[Alex]

Yeah. And then you got long enough of a celebration before they thred the flag up. And so it was the worst. Like, there's nothing Worth in celebrating a goal and. Oh, never mind.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Alex]

So Team USA is going to now play Belgium on Monday night in the round of 16. In baseball, the Astros lost to the Twins last night eight to three. They're gonna have a day off before open, putting up a weekend series with the Rays tomorrow night at Dyken Park. That is what's going on in sports.

And you know, you hear him off the what we call the top of the hour and you'll hear a bunch of hey, it's the 4th of July, long weekend. And in there, if you, if you had an educated ear, you might have heard somebody say, back it up, Terry. I asked Mo if she knew what that was and you said you didn't. So then I'm playing a video over here. She can't see it. I'm playing a video over here and I'm laughing my balls off. It's so funny. It's eight years old, Alex. You know what this is? Back it up, Terry.

[Alex]

[Rod Ryan]

It's eight years. It's eight years old. It's headlining. Three things you must see today.

[Mo]

Okay, I'll watch.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. It's during the day. It's a kid and maybe his grandfather, and they're just. They're getting ready to light a firework. And it's just like. It's just like you and me. Hang on a second. There's some cars coming, so they gotta wait.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Two cars go by, and then all of a sudden, Terry is in one of those, like, Little Rascals scooter things. Yeah, like a scooter. It's not a wheelchair, but, you know, it's got the. Yeah, it's.

[Mo]

It's electronic.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. And this guy, I have to say, he was unharmed.

[Mo]

Thank you for saying that.

[Rod Ryan]

He became an Internet sensation. Okay. He was the guest of honor in a Texas parade back in the day. People raised a bunch of money so he could get a better wheelchair and a new van. This guy got taken care of after overtaking the Internet. But I'm gonna play you the video because I think it just. The audio of it really does. The audio of it holds up. So there he is in his chair. He's got a little. His grandson. I'm guessing his grandson's there, lights it. Grandson boogies, gets out of there. It's one of those, like, 20. It's like. It looks like one of those 25 Saturn rockets. It's just like bottle rockets all in a little box that go off. You know, you light the fuse and they all go off, one, one after another. All right, so here we go. Bagel, bagel, bagel tear.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

But in reverse. Terry, put it with me first. Oh, Lord, Lord Jesus. Oh, Lord. Oh, Jesus. What the. What you doing?

[Mo]

You got that handy, the voting? Yeah, I do.

[Rod Ryan]

Just wondering. I don't think I've really checked in with you much. After we did song clips, they got Blues Traveler, hook Pod. South Town was in the lead last time you gave an update and whole celebrity skin was in last place. Pod in first place.

[Mo]

First place. 63% of the votes.

[Rod Ryan]

That's dominating. That's dominating in a three horse race. Okay. You can vote on the world famous Rob Ryan show [e-mail] Winning songs can be played at 9:30. I got Alex right now with what's trending. World cup is trending.

[Alex]

We're the best. The US Rocks. We're better than Bosnia. We're better than Herz, Gavina. We're better than the refs. We beat them all last night.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

It's a cracker.

[Alex]

That was a cracker of a game. But yeah, World cup is what people are talking about this morning. Extreme heat wave is trending. Like the people in the northeast are like dying because it's 80 degrees.

[Rod Ryan]

It's warmer than that.

[Alex]

But like go inside, guys. I saw New York City's asking people to keep their ACs at 78 to conserve the grid. But then also Times Square is still lit up, so maybe don't do that. PlayStation is trending. They announced that they will be ceasing making physical game discs by 2028. And people are upset about that.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh yeah.

[Alex]

I haven't purchased a physical game in years now. I just down. You just download them. You don't have to actually go buy the game. So you just click the button on the, on the console.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Alex]

And it just downloads it.

[Rod Ryan]

But you had. But they still sell. Like you can still go to physical

[Alex]

media like Walmart and buy the physical game and then go put it in there. But you can also just download it from the Internet on your console. People Are doing. But yeah, that's what's training on. Provide the buzz.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

94.

[Rod Ryan]

5 the Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show on this throwback Thursday. I got about 30 seconds. Mo, just for a quick update on throwback Thursday, if you can go take

[Moto Casino Announcer]

a look at that.

[Rod Ryan]

Voting for me.

[Mo]

Yes, the voting is happening.

[Rod Ryan]

I know you're trying to find that. Eric Church. Whiskey, if you can just maybe look over at what we're doing.

[Caller Megan]

All right.

[Mo]

Up is still in the lead with 63%.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. How many votes?

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Just.

[Mo]

It's just under 2,000, so it's not horrible.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, that's really good. I thought for sure morning because when I kept asking you how many votes, you kept dusting me off and I'm like, I just. I took that as a hint. Like, I don't want to make keep moving. I want Rod and Alex to be mad.

[Chili]

So.

[Caller Megan]

No.

[Mo]

We're almost at 2,000 votes.

[Rod Ryan]

Every time I asked you who was voting or how many votes, you just had a workaround and I did. No follow ups.

[Mo]

We got there.

[Rod Ryan]

That's really good. All right, well, thank you. Just because I've been talking all week that there's a lot of people off and you know, traffic is down and emails are lighter, calls are lighter, all that stuff.

[Alex]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

The winning song that we played at 9:30. We still have a ton of stuff to do before we get there. There are some my Chemical Romance tickets that will be sprinkled in there sometime around 9:10. We're gonna leave you with young the giant cold war kids T tickets. I mean, there's a lot going on, guys. Houston's rock, Houston's alternative and The Rod Ryan morning show. The buzz 94. Five the buzz. Good morning Rod Ryan Show. Didn't we say Sublime is playing like something? Hosted by Ryan Seacrest and it was America's 200.

[Mo]

Oh, the Disney thing.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, and it was Disney run, so that leads me to believe it's abc.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

And Sublime was playing and we couldn't seem to decide on what song they were going to play.

[Mo]

Yeah, Family Friendly.

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, that song's about hookers. You can't do that one. Yeah, we couldn't really find a song that we thought, I guess if they bent a few of the lyrics or

[Mo]

something, wait and see.

[Rod Ryan]

But they have to play a hit, though. It's.

[Mo]

I'm thinking they're going to do a Disney song, make it their own. That's their best bet.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, 60 chance of scattered thunderstorms today. High of 93. I could do the rocks. You're welcome.

[Mo]

What can I say?

[Rod Ryan]

I'd like to hear Sublime do that. All right. What you got over there? What's. What do you got for Houston's headlines?

[Mo]

All right, so the Trump administration announced yesterday that the US Will not renew the United States Mexico Canada agreement. That's like the trade deal that the President negotiated during his first term. He has since accused both Nixon neighbors of ripping off the US Saying they need to treat us better. Trade deficits are one of the reasons for the US not agreeing to renew the deal in its current form. We woke up this morning and saw that last night. Harris county authorities finally charged that Tesla driver in connection to that deadly vehicle crash when he crashed into a home in Katy last month. The 44 year old has officially been charged with manslaughter, and authorities say he told him that. That his Tesla was in autopilot, but then he veered off the road, sped into that brick home, killing that older woman. The crash remains under investigation by the Harris County Sheriff's Office. But also, I think it's interesting the National Transportation Safety Board has also opened up a safety investigation into the crash. So we have not heard the end of this. Rod, I do need a poll to check myself because this new survey says that during the summer, the average American eats 11 scoops of ice cream a week.

[Rod Ryan]

No, no, no. You're not getting us again on this. You have to lead with who did the poll?

[Mo]

Tillamook.

[Rod Ryan]

Who makes ice cream?

[Mo]

They're the dairy people. Yeah, they make like, cheese. The best cheese ice cream. So were they only asking their employees?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, the ones that probably get to take home free ice cream. Every day.

[Mo]

Like testing it at the office after their shift. Okay, so reported that 95 of Americans admitted to eating at least one scoop per week. That's the majority. Overwhelming majority.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I don't do that neither. I love ice cream. It's just.

[Mo]

I like ice cream, but it's not my go to a minute.

[Rod Ryan]

A minute on the lips, a month on the hips.

[Mo]

That's not even why. I don't even care about that. It's always in my freezer. I just. It don't. I don't grab it.

[Rod Ryan]

I love it.

[Mo]

You do.

[Rod Ryan]

I love ice cream.

[Mo]

Like if it's in your freezer, you're gonna eat the entire thing.

[Rod Ryan]

No, I don't have a problem like that. Okay, I'll eat a whole bag of chips.

[Mo]

But not ice cream.

[Rod Ryan]

Like a piggy.

[Mo]

You can have ice cream this weekend.

[Rod Ryan]

We made popsicles.

[Mo]

Oh, fun.

[Rod Ryan]

Tick tock recipe.

[Mo]

Okay, keep us posted.

[Rod Ryan]

It's easy. It's just cottage cheese, blueberries and honey.

[Mo]

I love it.

[Rod Ryan]

That's it. That's three things.

[Mo]

Sounds really good actually.

[Rod Ryan]

Make them for the kids, Alex. They love them.

[Alex]

I'll try.

[Mo]

Netflix just picked up the murder of JonBenet Ray Ramsay Ltd. Series. It's been looking for a home because Paramount plus for some reason opted not to pick up the Show. It's Melissa McCarthy and Clive Owen. So it's gonna drop this winter. Likely around the 30th anniversary of the child beauty queens Christmas killing 30.

[Rod Ryan]

Can you explain it to me?

[Caller Megan]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

What is the.

[Alex]

30 minutes down a man. And then we still see scored on that free kick, which was awesome.

[Rod Ryan]

We're not down a man the next game, but that guy with the red card cannot play.

[Alex]

Maybe they can appeal it. I don't think it's gonna work.

[Rod Ryan]

But now if we win, he's only suspended for one more.

[Alex]

He wanted to be back.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Alex]

After that.

[Rod Ryan]

Man, that's a harsh ass penalty, man.

[Alex]

There's a lot of other guys that have done stuff that were pretty much the exact same. Like he didn't do anything with an intent to injure anything like that. He hasn't even looked at the guy. His leg that he's trying to play on the ball. And it's a yellow card maybe, but there was no card initially given. And then they just immediately sent him off.

[Rod Ryan]

That chick that was pinning down Caitlyn Clark the other day didn't get a red card.

[Alex]

Yeah, yeah, right. She got applauded for it, but yeah, Raphael Claus, right Referee that made that hope nothing but the worst for that guy. Astros lost to the Twins last night eight to three. They're gonna have a day off today before they open up a weekend series with the Rays tomorrow night at Dyken Park. Mark, that is what's going on in sports.

[Rod Ryan]

[Mo]

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, yeah? Yeah. London loves this song.

[Mo]

Mommy put that on my playlist. You got it, baby. So now got it.

[Rod Ryan]

[Rod Ryan]

Can I?

[Alex]

I would like all of you to enjoy.

[Rod Ryan]

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, that's it. I need to rock out.

[Mo]

[Mo]

I'm gonna fill up your eagle cups so fast.

[Rod Ryan]

No, no, no. I don't need it filled up. Like, whatever. The last time you made a drink, I thought because I complained it. I thought it was logged as a complaint.

[Mo]

One complain and you're done. You're cut off. No, I'll make you a drink.

[Rod Ryan]

In the video that you will watch today, it's 10 minutes of firework fails for 4th of July. So enjoy.

Yeah, I don't know if you drank out of Eagle cups and listened to Disturbed, but I don't think you did that at your other morning show.

[Mo]

Not a lot of Disturbed. Happy to be here.

[Rod Ryan]

You drink out of an eagle Cup. Cheers are brand new.

[Mo]

They're brand new.

[Rod Ryan]

He's a brand new. Thank you. This is a wonderful drink.

[Mo]

Thank you.

[Rod Ryan]

Thank you. We're having a little party in here. Steve, the bread man's like, brother Rod, I cannot believe you guys get paid to do what you do on the radio. It's hilarious. I love you guys. Have a great Independence Day. You too, everybody.

[Mo]

Thank you.

[Rod Ryan]

Have an awesome Independence Day. We're not done. We're not done. We gotta do the winner of Throwback Thursday. We got stuff on mo the show. Laps left. I gotta vamp a little bit. Alex, you got a new podcast up today, you guys. Well, we don't need to dwell in the past, but it sounds like you guys had a lot of ground, a lot of things to talk about in this new podcast.

[Alex]

Oh, yeah, we did. It was our fourth of July special, so. Got as American as you could be.

[Rod Ryan]

What'd you get into?

[Alex]

Benjamin Franklin. Do you think he's the best founding father to have a podcast if you had one?

[Rod Ryan]

Like, he was the. He was the one that partied, I think, the hardest.

[Alex]

Yeah, I think Alexander Hamilton could have had a pretty solid podcast because, like, he'd be more into, like, you know, music and, like, movies and film and stuff like that. And then Benjamin Franklin seems like he'd go, like, the Alex Jones route, I think. Interesting, but kind of crazy.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, Benjamin Franklin was a little crazy. He was super intelligent, but I think he just. He comes across as being, like, super cool. He would have been the coolest guy to hang out with. I think he might have been.

[Alex]

He might have been. And then we really got into a heated debate on what dinosaur Will Ferrell would be. That was a funny question. Somebody sent in, and I was like, you know what? I think I have an answer.

[Rod Ryan]

Listen, I go to Kim Kardashian's Instagram for one thing and one thing only. I don't go for pictures for skims of Will Ferrell in underwear at Kim Kardashian's Instagram. Yeah, that's there.

[Alex]

Boy, you got that, didn't you?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I did. I got a few face full of Will Ferrell and some panties. It's really funny what Will Ferrell's doing right now. I hope this thing that he's doing, this golfer spoofy thing is fun.

[Mo]

It's A Netflix show?

[Rod Ryan]

I think so. So Hawk is what it's called. Looks fun.

[Alex]

I think he's at a World cup game in the. In the hat for Hawk.

[Rod Ryan]

So you got this new podcast.

[Alex]

Yeah, brand new podcast on episode 673 on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Rod Ryan]

I did read something that I thought was a little bit sad. I want to keep the party going, but, man, Freddy, the. The German soccer guy, he. He was going viral. We were talking about him every day. And I.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

It was just.

[Rod Ryan]

It was all part of the goodwill that I was getting wrapped up in where people were coming and visiting our country and taking the time to go online to say, hey, this is not the story that we're getting where I live. It's really nice over here. Everybody's really friendly. Everybody's very cool. I was really getting wrapped up in that. Yeah, I thought. I just thought we all really looked good, you know, it's like, yeah, don't worry about what the news is telling you, you know, without getting into fake news. And you know how people. They. They want to frame us to look a certain way in other countries. And everybody. A lot of people were taking the time to make videos, to say, hey, man, I'm really having a good time.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

Time over here.

Cool stuff.

[Rod Ryan]

And, wow, you know, this is not what we thought. Well, nobody was a bigger star than Freddy. J.J. watt tweeted to him. Ella Langley got him backstage, I think sent him. Yeah.

[Alex]

Put him up in a suite and box the visit.

[Rod Ryan]

So he's this guy that just. He didn't let his identity out there. He was kind of like Banksy almost. I don't think we ever post pictures

[Alex]

of him and his friends, but, like, he. His. His photo on his profile was Ronaldo. He's a big Ronaldo fan. So that was just what. He would just cover his face with, the Ronaldo face.

[Rod Ryan]

So he went. Freddie from Germany went the most viral for his posts. It was his first trip to America. He has since deleted his Twitter account.

[Alex]

It was not his first trip. It was what people thought. It was his first trip. And it was the most Internet being the Internet thing ever, where people saw it and they're like, oh, he's never been here. And he's like, I never said I had never been to America. I've been to New York City, and I had been to Las Vegas. I haven't traveled the United States. And that's what he was kind of documenting.

[Rod Ryan]

Right.

[Alex]

And I think it started out innocently. Where is that? Hey, J.J. watts going to put you up in Houston. Here's some cool stuff from jj. What? And then every PR firm in the world was like, this guy. Hey, Home Depot, we got to send this guy some stuff. And then I think people started getting mad that then it seemed like it was turning into other stuff. I don't think this guy did anything.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't think he did anything. This guy was just.

[Alex]

If people start giving you free stuff, what, like that's. That's on you to take it? I don't think he was taking every single offer. But then I think people just see that as like, why does he get

[Rod Ryan]

free stuff and not me?

[Alex]

And then they got mad.

[Rod Ryan]

Why can't we have nice things, right? Just like Freddy.

[Mo]

I never even thought that Freddy was

[Rod Ryan]

one of my favorite stories that was going on. He's deleted his Twitter.

[Alex]

Ken Bone.

[Mo]

Good on him for deleting his Twitter.

[Alex]

Wait, remember Ken Bone from whatever debate that was? He was the guy in the goofy looking dude in the red sweater. Yes. And everybody was like, ken, Bo, this guy's awesome. Why is he asking questions? And then they like, well, this guy's a weirdo on Reddit and we can just enjoy stuff and think he's funny for a second, guys.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, nothing, nothing has ruined the thousands of international soccer fans that have traveled across North America for the World cup and discovering something surprising. That American are pretty friendly people. And according to a new report, New York is getting the most comments as being the friendliest. There's a ton of reports because we might even believe some of the hype, too. This whole New York thing where everybody's all mean and angry. Have I been to New York?

[Mo]

When I was thinking, I was like, wait, no one looks me in the eyes when I'm New York. And the people that were like, checking me out at the grocery store, like, you're so friendly just because I was asking them how their day was.

[Rod Ryan]

People are going out of their way to say that the city's reputation for being rude does not match reality. Visitors have said strangers have bought them meals, drinks. Police were welcoming the public. Transportation was easier than expected. So if you're worried that maybe we don't make a good first impression, the World cup fans seem to be disagree.

[Mo]

There we go.

[Rod Ryan]

So much so that they said New York was the most welcoming of all the cities. Getting high report now, unfortunately, we didn't. I didn't see us on this list, but New York, Boston, Philly, Seattle and Atlanta. Top five.

[Moto Casino Announcer]

That's funny.

[Rod Ryan]

The five friendliest cities that tourists are Going out of their way to talk about. Well, I'm sure we're doing a good job here. I know. I know we are. Throwback Thursday. I think vamped enough. I've over vamped think.

[Rod Ryan]

That guy. If there was any problems with Terry, that guy would have dropped his phone and gone and grabbed Terry and got him out of there. He kept filming the whole time.

[Mo]

Too much.

[Rod Ryan]

The chubby kid and Janice. That's a whole nother. That's my psycho test. Which Mo failed, by the way. Yeah, Mo absolutely failed. It's simply called Help Me Janice on YouTube. And if you laugh at that, you're a crazy person for sure.
