[A]

Good morning. Yesterday, President Trump announced that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is out and that Oklahoma Senator Mark Wayne Mullen will take over the role effectively at the end of the month. It looks like Trump posted the news on Truth Social, praising Noem for her work on the border while announcing she would move to a newly created role as special envoy for the Shield of the Americas. Texas DPS is launching a statewide enforcement surge targeting speeding, seatbelt violations and impaired driving through March 17. Yes, the busy spring break travel season. Troopers will be highly visible in major metro areas and popular spring break destinations. They're managing the increase in holiday traffic. The crackdown follows a massive 2025 effort where they got 93,000 citations and more than 500 felony arrests. Rod, we love BUC EE's here, right?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

And we kind of feel like it's ours, but we're going to share the wealth because we just found out that eight new states are getting their first BUC EE's.

[D]

But there better not be a bigger one than here in Texas. No, that's what people get upset about. Surely not the bigger. The biggest Buc EE's has to be in Texas.

[A]

Fair, fair, fair. We're spoiled, spotless bathrooms, smoked brisket. It is going to be nice though to be able to drive to Louisiana and have like a nice pit stop, you know what I'm saying? By the end of 2027 new stores are expected in Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio and Wisconsin. We bro News yesterday that Britney Spears was arrested for impaired driving Wednesday night. Police found an unknown substance in her car and they now think she was under the influence of drugs and alcohol.

[D]

No way.

[A]

She was pulled over 9:30 Wednesday night. Police call her swerving in and out of traffic in her BMW. She said she was extremely. They said she was extremely emotional, crying during her arrest. But her rep says he hopes this can be, quote, the first step on a long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney's life.

[D]

She looks totally sober in all those crazy dancing videos.

[E]

I always thought that.

[D]

Yeah, totally sober. She's good.

[E]

She's typically her.

[D]

Leave Britney alone.

[A]

Earlier this week we announced a second round of Sphere shows for Metallica. But that was not enough. The band just announced a third round of shows.

[E]

Where's Hal?

[D]

I don't know. Hal usually joins us for fun facts. I don't see him. I got a couple good ones here too, man. Here we go. Eddie was the dog on the television show Frasier. I know the dog. I never really watched Frasier, but that dog made $10,000 per episode. His real name was Moose.

[E]

What's that the dog's owner did?

[D]

Just.

[E]

Dogs didn't really cash checks.

[D]

The dog made 10,000 per episode. Yeah, the owner I prob probably spent that money, but the dog earned it. He died in 2006 after making about $3.2 million.

[A]

Stop it.

[D]

The dog, Eddie. The dog on Frasier. How about that? What? This stinks. Oh. Pittsburgh Steelers, New England patriots. San Francisco 49ers. The Dallas Cowboys. They've won 38 of all Super Bowls in NFL history. That's neat. I hate that fun fact today. Get it out of here. Get it out of here. The Bills have won no Super Bowls. The Texans have won no Super Bowls. 0% of the Super Bowls. 0%.

[E]

Giants have three.

[D]

Of all the Super Bowls. Three Super bowl totals. So I don't know what their percentage would be. Add to that. Yeah. Tiger woods when he married Elin Nordegren. Nailed it.

[E]

Island.

[D]

Island. Nordegren in 2004. The wedding band. Hootie and the Blowfish. 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. Yeah,

Wow.

Okay. I. I'll get there eventually. Hang on.

[E]

[D]

Everything's all over the place today.

[E]

All right, so those were you to change everything?

[D]

Those were your fun facts? Yeah, they did some update.

[E]

It's never a good update.

[D]

Fun fact flashback. That's what we're doing now. What are you giving away?

[A]

I have sold out cree tickets for their March 11 performance at Rodeo Houston.

[D]

Okay. See if this is right. No, I already did the fun fact flashback. Okay, so my question today is a group of bunnies is called a herd. Typically. But in most of Canada, they have a different name for what they call a group of bunnies. Seems more fitting. What do the Canadians call a group of bunnies? 713-321-25945. It's now time for rock out with your stock. Out with Captain Cash.

[A]

Hey, Rod.

[D]

There was a big firing yesterday in President Trump's cabinet.

[A]

Yeah, it's kind of big news.

[D]

Breaking news. Go ahead.

[A]

President Trump announced yesterday that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is out. And it appears that Oklahoma Senator Mark Wayne Mullen will take over the of. Role role effective at the end of the month.

[D]

Can we just say he's not as hot as her?

[A]

I can say that across the board.

[D]

Yeah, like that's not politics.

[A]

And his name is Mark Wang. Just like one word. Mark Wayne.

[D]

Oh, really?

[A]

Is that interesting?

[D]

Not even close. He was hot as him.

[A]

Mark Wayne. Trump posted the news on Truth Social, praising Gnome for her work, maybe praising her for her work on the border, while announcing she would move to a newly created role as special envoy boy for the Shield of the Americas.

[E]

That sounds like whatever that is.

[A]

Weather. Big headline for the weekend across the country through next week for us here. We do have a slight chance for showers today, but things really kick up tomorrow. Yeah, it's possible we could stay dry through our afternoon plans, but a line of storms that may produce downpours and strong winds are possible for later in our Saturday. On Sunday, more storms. This is ever changing. We know how weather is, but it's specifically these kind. I don't know the name of the storm, but they're ever changing. Okay, just say weather aware this weekend and next week. All right, Rod, I know you're our Wendy's guy.

[D]

Oh, no. I mean, I Went to Wendy's. You're right. This week. Now I'm the Wendy's guy.

[A]

I'm actually applying for this job at Wendy's.

[D]

I went one time. I'm the Wendy's guy.

[E]

You're obsessed with Wendy's. He never shuts up about it. More than I listen to him talking about right now.

[D]

He carved me up.

[A]

Wendy's is hiring a chief tasting officer.

[D]

No.

[A]

It pays a hundred thousand dollars.

[D]

No.

[A]

A hundred thousand dollars.

[E]

You couldn't suck it up for 100k.

[D]

How much Wendy's do I have to eat?

[A]

Chief tasting officer. Basically, you just taste test Wendy stuff. You post videos about it. You can apply Wendy's, Chief tasting officer dot com. But just know, I'm gonna get this job.

[D]

I was crying eating that burger.

[A]

Enough getting paid to eat Wendy's sounds awesome. For the first time in a decade, Eva Mendez and Ryan Gosling made a public appearance together.

[D]

He doesn't let her out.

[A]

She's keeping the home together, the children.

[D]

Look at what she used to do, and then look when she got married and I get it. Maybe she made the decision to.

[A]

She's talked about it before.

[D]

Stay at home and raise the kids.

[E]

Tells you to do something, just do it.

[D]

But I feel like Ryan Gosling is just hoarding her. Like, let her out, dude. Share her a little bit.

[A]

Share her. He was on the Tonight show with Jimmy Fallon last night promoting some new movie he's doing. And he took the opportunity to surprise her. It's her 52nd birthday.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

He asked the audience to sing for her. Then when she walked out, he said, oh, it's your birthday. And he acted like he was going to sing. But then Jimmy Fallon brought out a band, a high school band to play. You know how Jimmy Fallon is.

[D]

Yeah. Yeah.

[A]

It was cute, but weird to see them out together.

[D]

Is it weird that if you were with Ryan Gosling, he's so controlling. He doesn't let you leave the house.

[A]

I don't. I don't. Or nice. Or you just get to be like,

[E]

I'm with Ryan Gosling.

[D]

Yeah. I mean, I get it.

[A]

They just, like, enjoy their life.

[D]

He's handsome. But, you know, let her out, dude.

[A]

It looks a little different. At least he did last night.

[D]

Let her out.

[A]

Yesterday we took the bait because Courtney Love posted a teaser video, and we started speculating what the heck was going on. We now know that Courtney Love and Melissa Ostermar from Hole are planning some shows together, and they're gonna play some new songs.

[D]

So it's not a Full whole reunion?

[A]

No, just the girls.

[D]

I told you. That Eric guy, the guitar player. I don't think they're on speaking terms.

[A]

Yeah, there's really no word from him.

[D]

So a couple of shows with her

[A]

and Melissa and new songs, that's literally all we know. I'll take it.

[D]

But full plugged in shows? Did they get into that at all or is it. Is it just two girls sitting there with a couple guitars?

[A]

Not a full on reunion. That's all I know.

[E]

Isn't the guy that did. No, never mind. I'm thinking of the dude from Garbage that produced Nirvana.

[D]

That's right. Yeah. Butch Vig, the drummer of Garbage.

[E]

Classic mix up.

[A]

Hey, those are Houston's headlines.

[D]

Take it, Alex.

Thank you.

[A]

And I'm so proud you got to experience the castrable last night. I wish I could have been there.

[D]

Oh, my God, it was awesome. Once in a lifetime thing.

[A]

Although I can't believe you've never done anything like that or never even seen it.

[D]

I was shocked. If you hadn't seen it before and then, I don't know. Now, mo be honest. Were they just being nice? Like, hey, we'll have you guys back. Would that just be a nice.

[A]

Rod Ryan is like a mythical creature and everyone wants to get their eyes on him.

[E]

That's not true.

[A]

So the invitation stands for next year.

[D]

Like, he's here? Yeah, he's.

[A]

Oh, that's great. I want to see. I want to see Chili and Alex out there, too. They're in. I texted him yesterday. I'm like, y', all,

[E]

yeah, sure, you can do it next year.

[D]

Awesome. Awesome. All right, Judy, hang on. We'll set you up with your VIPs and your beer. Daylight saving time. There's a clock change going on. Spring back Sunday. Spring forward. Don't listen to Alex. Spring back, Fall forward. Daylight saving time starts this Sunday. We spring forward an hour, so enjoy that internal clock. Kind of get scrambled.

[A]

If my kids usually wake up at 7:30am what time are they going to wake up on Monday? 8:30.

[D]

You spring forward or 6:30 minus?

[A]

So they're going to wake up at 6:30am On Monday, the first day of spring break when I get to sleep in.

[D]

But you're off. So 7:30 will come. These will be 6:30.

[F]

Sorry.

[A]

God bless America.

[D]

There's. There's been a debate about this doing away with the clock shifting thing for a long time. Now, I talked to you earlier this week that British Columbia. I know it's Canada, but they do have the Fluffles. They announced that they're shifting to permanent daylight saving time, which is what I would want. The. The. The time that we're about to get into Springing forward. That's what I would like all year, year round. Okay. There's a new idea in the mix. Thoughts? I mean, some people say, hey, this changing of the clock twice a year doesn't do anything for me. I would like to be on permanent daylight saving time. A Florida congressman is willing to meet in the middle. He wants to do it. It's called the Daylight Act. 20, 26, split the difference. Mm. Let's go ahead 30 minutes and leave it there. This way, Alex gets his time, I get my time, and then that's it, though. That becomes the time for all of

[A]

us, the whole country.

[D]

30 minutes. Meet in the middle. Don't spring forward an hour, spring forward a half hour. So you get half of your dumb, whatever we're in now and then half of what I want.

[E]

It seems, you know, that not everybody switches them at the same time. Like different countries do it differently.

[D]

Well, here's if we went with what this guy wants, it's a Republican congressman in Florida, we'd be 30 minutes off from the whole world.

[E]

I don't like that.

[D]

I don't like that when you're an hour off.

[E]

Like, you can kind of do the math for that. 30 minutes is getting more confusing. It's a half hour.

[D]

We all know how to adjust for

[E]

the time zones is minus or plus one.

[D]

But if we do some 30 minute thing. No, we're 30 minutes off from everyone else. Okay. Crap.

[A]

I thought it was cool and now

[E]

I, Yeah, see, that's why take it back. Just, we've had this way we can hate it all we want, but, like, just do it like it's there. We don't need to change it.

[A]

I, I, there's obviously not a solution. That's our best solution.

[D]

Switching to the way I want it is the best solution. Yeah.

[A]

Why don't we take Rad Ryan's solution.

[E]

Norway doesn't change theirs until the last Sunday this month.

[D]

Okay. Okay. Then there's Kosovo, and then somebody's going to email me. There's three states that don't that don't go by all of this.

[E]

Arizona, I think, is always the same.

[D]

So as of now, we're springing forward on Sunday. So, Mo, it's going to be earlier than it is and it's going to mess with you.

[E]

Set your clocks ahead right now, and then the kids will just be on that by two days in.

[D]

I'm just trying to adjust so hard. That hour is really. That's Cliff. That's whoever your Cliff is in the office. Oh, so Tired, buddy.

[E]

I slept three hours last night. I'm not. I'm not affected at all by one hour.

[A]

Yeah, Alex is not affected by no sleep.

[D]

How you doing, Cliff?

[E]

Oh, six weeks from now, my body's still catching up.

[D]

Not here. I'm so glad we're not here next week to hear those stories of people being.

[E]

I might come in just to walk around.

[D]

To have those people annihilated by an hour. Hour less sleep. All right. The 30 minute thing, not good. No, I. I'm with you. I thought it was good.

[A]

I was like, oh, okay. Everybody's happy.

[D]

It just jacks us up with the whole world canceled. On the flip of this break, Chili said, we have one more pair. Well, a rogue pair because the beer winners at eight and nine are getting VIP. But we. He said, you got an extra one one. We're not here next week. Throw it in there. 7:20 plus. We'll tell you about where you can see Mo today, this afternoon about getting even more VIP passes. That's all on the flip of this break. Houston's rock. Houston's alternative, and the Rod ryan Morning Show. 94. 5 the Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan Show. 7:19. You know what we do at 7:20, right? Does everybody know? Everybody knows what we do at seven. Yeah. My feet are bouncing already. What up? All right. I feel a alive right now. Looks like we got some rain on tap this weekend. Not so much today. 20% chance of rain, high of 84. 60 chance on Saturday, 80% chance Sunday. There's Alex with what's trending.

[E]

Britney Spears is our top trend still.

[D]

Is there a. Is there an actual mug shot? I haven't seen.

[E]

I have not seen the mug shot,

[A]

but there are more details that are coming out.

[D]

Okay, how does TMZ not have a mug shot? So there's details. Was there drugs in the car?

[A]

Oh, that's okay. That's okay. This is awesome. Is there any other sports organizations or leagues that do it more fun and entertaining than minor league baseball? Alex, does minor league baseball seem to have the most fun? They can take the chances they can do some out of the box thinking things to get people in. They're kind of desperate to get people into their ballparks. It's fair. You got a monkey riding around on a back of a dog and he's dressed like halftime shows in like as a. Like a mini rodeo.

[E]

That's the best halftime show they could ever do.

[D]

The monkey on the back of a dog and a dog just running around and that monkey strapped to that dog.

[E]

Just a cowboy with a copy cowboy hat.

It's the greatest thing ever.

It's pretty great.

Yeah.

[A]

I like the theme parties. You know, they have like Barbie night

[D]

and like is the Savannah Bananas, are they turning that into a whole league?

[E]

It's own thing?

[D]

Yeah. Yeah. It's crazy how big that is. I was in New Orleans for Mardi Gras and across from us, where I was, where we were holed up for the parade, there was a group of Savannah Banana people. There was like 10 or 15 of them all wearing jerseys and everything.

[A]

Really?

[D]

I just. Do they work for them? Are they just super uber fans? Whatever. They were all dressed up.

[A]

Uber fans.

[D]

Crazy.

[A]

I know.

[D]

Like, so I know that that's kind of like the Harlem Globetrover Trotters. This is a real. Check this out. For a limited time, there's. There's a team in Wisconsin called the Lake County Document Collins. They're going to undergo an identity change where they can do anything they want in that league. So for. For a limited time, they're changing the name of the band or the bar or the team to the Wisconsin Dive bars.

[E]

That's pretty sad.

[D]

And they're doing the merch.

[A]

No way.

[D]

They're doing shirts, jerseys, hats, everything. I have never wanted to buy another team's jersey. That I don't follow at all. All I want. I'm a fan already. The Wisconsin Dive Bars is what the name of the team is going to be.

[A]

They do a lot with that and

[D]

they redo all the merch. That's awesome. So I haven't looked it up yet, but I have a. Dive bars are the best. Yeah. If, like, I'm not a. Do I look like I go to clubs? Do I look. Do I look like a guy that I've ever even been to Miami.

[A]

Question some things about you, but not that.

[D]

Okay. You know what I mean? Glitter wings. Do you see me?

[A]

No.

[D]

[A]

No. But I've heard legends of the roll

[D]

in the role in smoking. The meanest woman behind the bar. Some mean Asian woman, really. You had to have cash. All the beers came out of a igloo cooler.

[A]

I love.

[D]

I don't know if they had refrigeration.

[E]

That seems like you would need that for a bar, but I like that they didn't have those huge.

[D]

They looked like truck tires, those smoke eaters. And then everybody was putting out their cigarettes in the ceiling tiles and writing their notes. Names.

[E]

Love that.

[D]

There was paneling.

[A]

Of course there was.

[D]

There was a pool table that was so warped, I don't know how you could play on it.

[A]

You like, look at the glass when you're taking a drink and you're like, should I be drinking out of this?

[D]

And the best part about the roll in. It had a large screen tv, but it was that projector, that back projector one. Like, when did you have like one rich friend that had a large screen TV that you couldn't see it from the side. It was a projector. Like the lights and everything was projected onto the screen behind it. It was. It was real thick.

[A]

They had that there.

[D]

It was the first large screen tv.

[A]

Did it take up the whole bar?

[F]

It.

[D]

No, it. It was like, should have been in somebody's home in the 80s. And they had it there in the. In the 2000s because I was here.

[E]

Awesome.

[D]

They had a large screen tv. You couldn't see anything from the side. Best die bar ever. Where's the best dive bar? Now I'm getting this conversation going on our Facebook page. I want to know Nick's place. Next place.

[A]

No, that's your place.

[E]

Like a dive bar, but it's a real bar. But it's a dive bar.

[D]

Would they enjoy being called a dive bar? Cuz you got to embrace your div too. Like, it's not a.

[E]

Would embrace it.

[D]

It's not a slam. Walk into it.

[E]

You're like, oh, cool. It's kind of divey. But then the food is dope and anything you ever wanted to watch, they will put on.

[D]

You know, like you're questioning when the last time the beer lines were cleaned, that type of thing. I knew a little bit about something owning a bar. I had to do that stuff. It's like, oh, God, you gotta clean the bar lines. What? Bobcat Teddy's.

[E]

That's a good dive bar.

[D]

Bobcat Teddy's.

[A]

It still exists.

[D]

Is my favorite.

[A]

Yeah, where is it?

[D]

It's on White Oak. Okay. It was called something else before. A while ago. It was. It's right across the street from where what was? The music venue.

[E]

Fitzgerald's.

[D]

Fitzgerald's right across the street from Fitzgerald's?

[A]

Yeah, I know what we're talking about.

[D]

[D]

And there's Christmas lights. You know what? That's a great part of a dive bar, Christmas lights. Yeah. When you have Christmas lights all year round. Brown, that's another. And you gotta have a jukebox and I don't want some. I don't want some dick at the bar running it from his phone. Okay. You gotta put money in there and you gotta do it. Okay. Yeah. I gotta give a shout out to La Carafe.

[A]

Is that your. Your jam?

[D]

That's the oldest like bar in the city of Houston. You've been to La Craft, I think I've been there.

[A]

It's a downtownish they used to used.

[D]

Yeah, yeah. They used to only take cash up until recently. I think they just changed that maybe within a year.

[A]

I felt like everyone looked at me when I walked in though, and I didn't like how I felt.

[E]

That's part of it.

[D]

Yeah. Because you're. What are you walking in with one of your little Oscars? Country western, rodeo outfits? Who's this rhinestone cowboy? What are you wearing?

[A]

Feel like my place. I was there for the history.

[D]

Just go in there. Jeans and a T shirt.

[E]

Yeah, they'll love it.

[A]

But there's still gonna be boots on.

[D]

Nobody needs your rhinestone boots in there. Get out of here. Okay. Bring a knife to bring a knife

[A]

I'm so excited to hear.

[D]

And that's fine if it's, you know, surrounding areas. It doesn't have to be in Houston proper. I went to a place called the Turtle Club. Never heard of that.

[A]

Heard of that.

[D]

It was a floating bar. Where Seabrook.

[A]

Really? Is that no fair?

[D]

Yeah. South. Yeah, down. It was a floating bar. Like it was like. Yeah, it was a bar that floated.

Was it still there?

[D]

I don't know. It was. It gave off. I did one remote there. I had to do some kind of saying to become a, you know, a member. A turtle. Yeah, I had to become a turtle. And then I felt like it was going to turn into a swingers club at midnight.

[A]

You didn't stick around.

[D]

It was just like the movie Dusk till dawn fun once the sun went down. Like the place a whole different place. A whole new crowd was in there and it was it on the water swing a revive.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

Yeah, it was wild.

[A]

Sounds about right.

[D]

I didn't get involved swinging situation but it something was going down at that turtle club. Let me tell you. I don't know if it's still there. I've got Landry's all day ride passes. Let's get a little family friend friendly here. Kim boardwalk.com Mo's going to give those away at around 8:20. Got another case of beer. Coming up with some VIP passes. And then there's Mo right there with Houston's headlines.

[A]

Hey Rod. So President Trump announced yesterday that Homeland Security Secretary Christine Noem is out. Oklahoma Senator Mark Wayne Mullen looks like he's going to take over effective at the end of the month. Trump posted the news on Truth Social praising Noem for her work on the border while announcing she will move to to a newly created role as special envoy for the Shield of the Americas.

[D]

Somehow she backed herself in a corner in this. Whatever hearing she was in. She was Getting asked questions, lots of questions. So the three things they said, okay, were her handling. And it's not her fault. She didn't pull a trigger, but her handling. What happened in Minnesota.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

Then there was. Did she spend $200 million on advertising? Advertising.

[A]

200. Was it million or thousand?

[D]

Million.

[A]

It was million.

[D]

Yeah. That's a lot of her riding around on a horse.

[A]

And she in the country, that President Trump approved it and he said he didn't.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

And then there's an alleged affair.

[A]

Got it.

[D]

So those three things is what I saw. I'm trying to watch the news once in a while, so I don't know. I don't know. But she's got another job immediately. It's not like you're booted from the whole we don't want to see you again job.

[A]

Is this.

[D]

I don't know. But she's not throwing out on the street. Interesting.

[A]

Texas DPS launching a statewide enforcement surge targeting our speeders, our seatbelt violators, and those impaired drivers. Going on now through March 17th. Yes, the busy spring break travel season. Troopers are going to be highly visible in major metro areas and popular spring break destination destinations, managing increased holiday traffic. So last year when they did this, they got 93,000 citations. 93,000. More than 500 felony arrests. Go get them. Eight new states are getting their first BUC EE's. I was kind of sad about this, but I'm also, like, kind of happy to spread the joy as long as BUC EE's can handle it.

[D]

What's the sad part?

[A]

The sad part, like, it was hours, and there was, like, the thrill of when you get to Texas, you know, that you can count on BUC EE's.

[D]

That's a thing. That's a Texas thing.

[A]

Is it?

[D]

Yes. When word got out that Whataburger was having some investors from Chicago get involved. Oh, there it goes. There it's like, what do you think? They're changing the recipe.

[A]

People want things, Wonder.

[D]

They like things in this bubble, and they like them to be ours, and you don't want them to go anywhere else. Yeah, yeah. People were complaining about BUC EE's. I said, for what? What are you complaining about?

[A]

As long as nothing changes. I'm happy to think that I could drive to Louisiana, which is one of the states that's getting a buc ee.

[D]

Bucky's. Yeah.

[A]

I can drive there and still depend on BUC EE's. I like that. I still just want it to be ours.

[D]

Somebody called in once because they were building One in Tennessee. Yes. And it was going to be bigger than anyone in hell in Texas. I see your eyes. We have to have the biggest one.

[A]

We built a bigger one.

[D]

We have to have the best and the biggest here.

[A]

Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, and Wisconsin. All set to get new BUC EE's by the end of 2027.

[D]

You're right on the road. And there's a little piece of home somewhere else.

[A]

And a nice clean bathro and some brisket. Like hopefully they can handle it.

[D]

Yeah, that's a good thing. It won't be as good as ours. That's fine.

[A]

You're right. We broke the news yesterday that Britney Spears was arrested for impaired driving Wednesday night. Well, we're getting more details.

[D]

Rod, give me the deets.

[A]

So police found some unknown substance in her car. They've sent it off for testing. They believe she was under the influence of drugs and alcohol. She's crying when she's getting arrested. TMZ is now reporting that ahead of being arrested on these DUI charges. Charges. She fired her sobriety coach, Sis

[D]

because he was pouring the shots for her. That makes sense.

[A]

She sold her rights to her music. Came home from Mexico, fired the coaches.

[D]

Just went out of bender. She did make a lot of money selling that catalog.

[A]

Fired some security guards. It's just they're trying to figure out a game plan for her.

[D]

How do we not have even a mug shot?

[A]

Oh, I am confused by that. I thought that was public record.

[D]

We're two days removed.

[E]

Why do we even want our queen's mug shot? All right, we should probably get rid of it. Never let it see the light of day.

[D]

She kind of want to see what she looked like at that time.

[A]

I think we know what she looked like. We've seen her. We've seen her at a rough.

[E]

I think we've been hating on Britney a little too much. Let's let our queen go. We freed her for this reason.

[A]

Let's let her be free. She has been a lot.

[E]

The police clearly didn't understand that when they arrested her.

[A]

I hope the best for her and hope that she going to get things figured out and enjoy her life.

[D]

Let me know if you get some video.

[A]

I will. Or a pick as soon as it comes through. Earlier this week, we announced a second round of Sphere shows for Metallica. That was not enough for fans. The band just had to announce a third round of shows. And we know that's not the end. New dates that they just announced are in February general on sale for those New shows begins today. Those are Houston's headlines.

[D]

[A]

We've already lined up our contestants, right?

[D]

Yeah. Chili's got everybody lined up. Hey, before I get. Because I get sidetracked on this stuff, it's still in the same conversation. Broadcasting live. Willie's Grill in Ice House. Jarrett just won VIP passes. I've got one more coming with the 9 o' clock beer, and then we're kind of done with that. You're going to be out today?

[A]

Yes. I have two pair of VIP passes. I'm going to be at the Cricket Wireless, 1997 Katie Mills Boulevard in Katy.

[D]

Okay.

[A]

If you're making your lunch plans, stop by at noon and get in, Try and win.

[D]

So people kind of show up. They put their name on a Little piece of paper and hope to get their name drawn.

[A]

Let's do it.

[D]

And you're there. I mean, it's kind of an in and out thing. It's like a flyby. Yeah.

[A]

If you're saying I was there like 30 minutes.

[D]

So it's good.

[A]

You got to get there. You gotta be there at noon.

[D]

12 to 12:30.

[A]

Yep.

[D]

At the latest.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

Okay. Yeah. You don't want to be shut out on this.

[A]

We want to hook you up.

[D]

So the other thing that. I'm sorry. The guy that emailed me said I. Rod, what are you doing out there? We are doing the hardcore 100. What is the hardcore 100? Well, this plays into my fear that we will be out somewhere and no one's going to show up. Exactly why this was created. Yes, I know. People will come out if they win a free T shirt.

[E]

That's very true.

[D]

So what happens is Mo, Deb and Everybody over at BNP, they're printing out the shirts now. They're numbered one through 100.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

They're all different sizes. I don't know who's standing in line where. But what's going to happen is before 6 o', clock, we'll go out there and the first 100 people in line, which I'm hoping there's people in line to get in, will get a special commemorative T shirt. There's only 100 of them.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

I never make a movie green, cuz I don't want you fitting in. Oh. I want to be able to spot you. I want to be able to spot you in a crowd.

[A]

You're one of my top 100. I get it, I get it.

[D]

And then the whole day you're taking pictures with people because, hey, man, it's 5 o' clock and number 17 is still here.

[A]

Or you know, it's 8 o' clock

[D]

at night and I just saw 26.

[A]

And you know, they've been there since like 5am you know, they were there in the morning. Amazing.

[D]

Now what time do you line up for a hardcore 100T shirt? I don't know. It started to get ridiculous. It started to get crazy. When we were doing Lucky's downtown, we had people lining up two days beforehand sleeping outside.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

In a chair and living in the streets. I'm not gonna know until we get here on Monday to see if there's anybody in line already. Now, Willy's of course asked, what is going on? Do I need to put a cop out there? What is going on with this hardcore 100?

[A]

Like what have we signed up for.

[D]

How bad do they want this shirt? I don't know. That number one shirt.

[E]

People camped out for days. Yeah.

[D]

Yeah. Good.

[E]

Long while.

[D]

I can't encourage that. I can't tell you what to do. I can't put you in harm's way. I don't know. I don't know what, what time you need to start lining up to get a hardcore 100 shirt. But I would say you better be there before we get there. You know, the first 100 people, it is out of every I. I sell a lot of. We sell a lot of T shirts. We sold a lot of T shirts for a lot of years. The T shirt that everybody wants. The most coveted T shirt of all of all the boobs rock and all the summer stuff we do and all the backpacks and all that. The most coveted shirt that we have ever, ever been associated with with is a hardcore 100 shirt. People have them from years ago. It's like the. It's like the calf scramble. They said that that T shirt hasn't changed since the 40s. And they said when you do a cap scramble, you don't even wash that T shirt. You frame it with the dirt and everything. Honest to God. They told us this. I said, you are in such an elite group of people when you do that calf scramble. So many kids want to do that. It's the same thing with the hardcore 100. You are in such an unbelievable elite, elite group. We are doing the hardcore 100.

[A]

Can't wait.

[D]

Yeah, I can't wait either. Obviously, we'll talk more about this on Monday before the actual party, but make plans to party with us on St. Patrick's Day.

He said that he used to live by the Roll In.

[A]

Good for them.

[D]

It's for Friday. Is Friday the best day for happy hour? You agree with that? For me it is. Yeah. Because I don't have to work Friday. I mean I don't have to work Saturday or Sunday. So I can turn up and let loose tonight. I mean today after work and then don't have to worry about nothing tomorrow. Yeah. It's responsible happy hour from my awful time of owning a bar. You loved it. It's the worst. The tabc, the Texas Alcohol and Beverage Commission, they're the worst people on the planet. Yeah.

[A]

It's interesting.

[D]

They set up these rules and they just, they set up rules to make your bar fail. Okay. They're terrible people. They a holes, bro. They walk in, like when I was checking IDs, they would just pull up, park in the handicapped pot and then they just walk in and you couldn't do anything. Anything because they, they have the power to take you to jail if they want to. Yeah. So for my, for my like people that like maybe fish or whatever. Think about the biggest dick game warden ever.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

That came up and rolled up on your tackle box or looked at all your stuff. Yeah. Like they're like that.

[A]

Checking it on your license.

[D]

Yeah. So they, they don't allow things. Happy hour. You can call it happy hour, but it's got to be a certain amount of time you can't have. You. They, they control what kind of deals you have.

[A]

Really?

[D]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like you can't give away beer. You can't give away Alcohol which I get it. I understand that you don't want to promote over drinking and stuff but you know back when I was young there was all kinds of Crazy Promotions. St. Patrick's Day. I've talked about this before. In Buffalo when I was in college they did progressive drafts. 7:00 clock in the morning the bars would open.

[A]

Yes.

[D]

Okay. St. Patrick's Day rolls on every day of the week, right? 5 cents? Yeah, 5 cents. You get a draft from 7 until 8 in the morning. From 8 until 9 it was 10 cents. 9 to 10 it was 15 cents. So it was progressive drafts. It went up a nickel. Okay. I did another party in New Orleans where it was the bladder buster and it was free beer until the first person went to the bathroom. Some girl always had to go promotion. They would block the door. Everything. Bladder buster. We're going to tap this keg. You're in at 7 o'. Clock. Great. Somebody rolls in, that's great. But if you leave then it's over as well cuz we think you're going out and peeing around the corner or something. First person to use the bathroom. Boom. Free beer is over. Okay. You can't drinking with Lincoln. You can't do that anymore. You ever do that? No.

[A]

What's that?

[D]

Drinking with Lincoln. $5. You drank all night?

[A]

$5 on a Tuesday. Yeah, I've been there.

[D]

Now let me enter. This is where I'm going to enter Gen Z in the discussion and I don't want to beat up on Gen Z. Gen Z has said that they prefer happy hours to be on Saturday.

[A]

Saturday.

[D]

Now Gen Z is. There's a lot of drinkers in this cell. It's 14 to 29. So 21 to 29 year olds. Okay, there's your Gen Z drinkers. All right, which those of them that drink. Not many. They're not drinking. No. This is. Most generations say that Friday is the best day for happy hour. Gen Z is the one group that says Saturday is the best day for happy hour. I'm okay with that. I'm not going to beat up on them.

[A]

That doesn't make sense.

[E]

Happy hour is not supposed to be on a weekend. Happy hour is like we drink off of work. Thursday is a happy hour day.

[D]

Here's why I'm not going to beat up on them.

[E]

I'm going to.

[A]

Cuz they're.

[D]

Because they also 39% of Gen Zers say at home happy hours.

[E]

That's not a thing.

[F]

Not a thing.

[E]

That's not a thing. It's just drinking at home. You can call it whatever you want. It's drinking at home.

[D]

At home. Happy hours have become increasingly popular compared to restaurants and bars, particularly with the younger adults. 39% of Gen Zers say they prefer to spend happy hour at home, which is what? Sitting at home on the couch.

[A]

Sitting at home and drinking a sister

[E]

thing is mocktails where it's like, no, it's just a non alcoholic beverage.

[D]

That's all it is.

[E]

It's just that you're having the soda water, dude, like, just say the name of the thing. You don't have to charge it like the same as a regular alcoholic drink. Just say, I want to be at home drinking. Like, you don't just. You sound a happy hour. Happy hour is meeting up with somebody.

[D]

Want to come over and have happy hour on my couch?

[E]

It's just having people over. That's not a happy hour.

[D]

Happy hour is at a bar.

[E]

You meet at a certain location. The gang of you want to come

[D]

over and happy hour. I'm mom's couch.

[A]

Oh, no.

[D]

I'm sorry.

[E]

Talk about how, how our mental health needs.

[A]

I need kids to get out more.

[D]

It's not a thing, guys. You got. You got to go out.

[A]

You're supposed to be enjoying your life right now.

[D]

You have to go out. I'm not saying that you have to drink. I'm saying.

[E]

Right, right.

[D]

I'm saying you have to go out,

[A]

be social, talk to strangers.

[D]

You're going to be weirdos. Yes. Okay, you're already a little weird, but you're going to be weirder. You've got to get out. Okay? I'm not. This is not a segment of me pushing you to go out and drink. But you know what? Having a couple of beers and getting up a liquid courage and walking up and saying hi to somebody is a good thing. Go do it.

[E]

This country is built on that.

[D]

Do it. Okay. You're gonna get shot down. It's okay. It's not the end of the world, okay?

[E]

My whole life is getting shot down.

[D]

That's 99% of my book getting shot down. Okay? There's 1% in there that it was worked out. Okay?

[A]

Oh, man.

[D]

You can't have happy hour at home. End of story. You can't. Okay? If you want to do this, if you prefer Saturdays, I'm okay with it. That's why I was okay with that. You cannot have happy hour at home on the couch.

[E]

You cannot have a happy hour if it's not a work day.

[D]

Okay. I'm all right with that.

[E]

That's my argument.

[D]

Get out of the house. Okay. Jeez. 94. 5 the buzz. 94. 5 the buzz. That's the Reverend Marilyn Manson and personal Jesus. You guys have heard. If you've been listening this week. Mo and I were out earlier this week at Rodeo, and Mo's been there every day since. I got to meet a lot of people that Mo knew from her previous life. That's Moe's jam out there, okay? That's her people. She's the queen. She knows everything. Everybody. A lot of people came up to me, like, man, you know, I listened to Mo for such a long time, and you brought a lot of people over to this show, which was great. A lot of people said to me, like, man, I used to listen to Mo, and that laugh is so infectious, and I loved it. And then when she was gone for a while, I heard she was on your show, and I started listening, and I really like it, you know? And that was good. That's a great thing. But one of the guys is saying, man, you know, Mo, we know she doesn't know this music. What? How do you deal with that, Rod? I go, listen, we talked about this. I even said in the interview, I said, I don't care if, you know, I told your mom this, but I met your mom. Yeah. I said, I don't care if she knows Willie Nelson from Nirvana. Okay? It doesn't matter. I looked her in the eye in the interview, and I said, are you cool? Are you cool? And then Alex, same thing. Is she cool? I go, she said, she's cool.

[E]

She did say that.

[D]

And then Al said, everybody says they're cool. Is she really cool? I said, I don't know. I. I looked at her and I said, I don't care that you don't know the music. It doesn't bother me at all. You gotta be cool. She said, I'm cool. I promise I'll be cool.

[A]

I don't know if I ever said.

[D]

And then I said, for how long? Forever. Are you just gonna be cool for, like, the first month, and then you become, like, the regular? You, like, you gotta be cool all the time. Very true. Yeah. So the guy's giving me heart. He's laughing and stuff. And I said, dude, she's been to a Marilyn Manson concert, okay? That's where that's. You want to talk about a life change?

[A]

That was the line. The guy was like, oh, yeah.

[D]

He said, what? Megan Maroney? I said, no, Marilyn Manson, okay? She's been to a Marilyn Manson concert since hanging out with us.

[A]

One of the first events I went to.

[D]

Boy, has the life changed, huh?

[E]

Quite a bit.

[A]

Things are good. Thanks for having me.

[D]

We got. And she's still pretty cool.

[E]

I think so.

[D]

She's still pretty cool.

[E]

I don't hate her yet.

[A]

Alex, you sound happier.

[E]

He said, yeah, we're getting there.

[D]

94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan'. Free beer Friday, which will turn into open phones Friday, where you guys get a chance to take over the entire last hour of the show. On our last hour of the week. We'll leave you with those sold out Chris Stapleton tickets playing Rodeo Houston tomorrow. Back to back man, Creed and Chris Stapleton. What a week. The beer winner, the fourth and final beer winner today will get the Willys VIP passes. So let's get right into MO Right now with Houston's headlines. What you got?

[A]

President Trump announced yesterday that Homeland Security sector secretary Kristi Noem is out. Oklahoma Senator Mark Wayne Mullen will take over the role effective at the end of the month. Trump posted the news on Truth Social, praising Noem for her work on the border, while announcing she will move to a newly created role as the special envoy for the Shield of the Americas. Weather also a big headline for the weekend across the country through next week for us here specifically. We do have a slight chance for showers today, but things really kick up to tomorrow. It's possible we could stay dry through the afternoon, which is great if you're trying to make plans, but a line of storms that may produce downpours and strong winds will definitely happen in the evening on Sunday. More storms. This is ever changing. Whatever kind of storm it is, it's one of those you just have to really stay on top of. So stay weather aware this weekend into next week. Rod, I know you're our Wendy's guy.

[D]

No, I'm not. I had Wendy's one time. Time I had like. It's the first time in like five years I've had Wendy's. Not the Wendy's guys.

[A]

When's the last time you had Wendy's?

[D]

Five years. Come on.

[A]

Exactly.

[D]

I'm the Wendy's guy on the show.

[A]

He has a new job that I think I might apply for.

[D]

Hang on. Baconator over there is the one that called the shots. Chili's, the Wendy's guy.

[A]

Chili, are you our Wendy's guy? He's thumbs up or thumbs down.

[D]

He's our Wendy's guy.

[A]

I think he said yes.

[D]

He knows the menu. He knows like the terminology, the fraud, frosties. He knows all that stuff. Yeah, I mean I grew up on it in high school. The Baconator?

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

Junior bacon cheeseburger, Junior bacon cheese.

[F]

Yeah.

[A]

Did you hear about this job?

[D]

Yeah. What do you think? I've applied like 50 times already while it came out. Yeah.

[A]

Let's campaign for two days.

[D]

Never mind. You're not going anywhere. 100,000. I'm going. A heartbeat. He could do both. There is an application on links and

[A]

guests today they're hiring a chief tasting officer.

[D]

That's kind of what you did. What did you do last night at the roadie?

[A]

I was a food judge.

[D]

You tasted all the foods?

[A]

Yeah, from the carnival midway section.

[D]

So this would be just tasting the Wendy's menu and posting about it? Oh, Baconator over here wants it.

[A]

He pays 100 grand.

[D]

Dude, I'll be like, it is a

[A]

temporary job, but it's so good and he could post about it. You can help bring the vibes, the taste, the creativity to Wendy's Chili. For Wendy's influencer, I'm about it.

[D]

But you're not going to get actual data when I you the place is paying you $100,000. You just heard Chili. Every bite is so good. Of everything that you make. How are you going to get real answers when you're paying people that much?

[A]

I don't know if that's what they're looking for. They just want you to taste stuff and post videos.

[D]

They just want you to talk about it. Yeah. Okay.

[A]

And everyone wants to look at Chili's face while he's eating a Baconator. Look at that face. Not just a mother could love.

[D]

I'll eat the bacon out of that beard.

[A]

Exactly.

[D]

Hey.

[A]

For the first time in about a decade, Eva Mendez and Ryan Gosling made a public appearance together.

[D]

They do not. Well, not they. Ryan Gosling is always out making movies. One of the hottest guys in Hollywood. He's married to one of the all time hottest women in Hollywood and he doesn't let her leave the house.

[A]

I think they decided as a family that she was going to stay home with the kids.

[D]

He decided they that I'm marrying you.

[A]

And then maybe that's what she wanted.

[D]

Ross not allowed to see you anyway.

[E]

Maybe it is what she wanted. Maybe not though.

[B]

There's just.

[A]

Gosling was on last night.

[D]

There's just not A lot of content of her. It's like even Instagrams and stuff. Everything is old.

[A]

Maybe she likes it that way. Who knows?

[D]

She hates it. Send a sign.

[A]

Ryan Gosling promoting a new movie. I guess Project Hail Mary's in theaters. He brought out Eva Mendez to surprise her for her 52nd birthday.

[D]

I think she's one of the all time classic beauties.

[A]

She is beautiful.

[D]

Really. And he's just hoarding her.

[A]

I don't know. Maybe this is what she wants.

[D]

She hates it. I know she does. Let her out.

[A]

There's a video of a high school marching band playing Happy Birthday for Eva Mendez. It's very sweet. It's good to see her.

[D]

First time they've made an appearance together in how long?

[A]

About a decade.

[D]

Yep.

[A]

The kids are still young.

[D]

Something's up over there.

[A]

Let her live.

[D]

Let us. Let us have some of your wife.

[A]

Did she do a secret baby thing too? Like no one even knew she was pregnant? Like we wouldn't know. We haven't seen you.

[D]

She's such a mystery. Yeah, the last time I saw her was in Good Guys. The Good. What was the.

[E]

I guess.

[D]

Yeah, what was the movie with Mark Wahlberg, the other guys. She was in that. And that was the last movie he allowed her to make.

[E]

It was nice of him.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You guys are so weird. Hey, yesterday we ended up taking the bait, it turns out. Remember Courtney Love posted some like cryptic teaser video and we're like speculating about what's going on.

[D]

On.

[A]

We now know that her and Melissa Aftermar from Hole are planning some shows together and they're also going to play some new songs. Not any further details yet, but that's what we know. I think everyone was excited for a whole reunion. Everything I saw. I don't really know a whole lot about them, but new music is always good.

[D]

But it doesn't sound like a full reunion, so I'm missing the guy.

[A]

So it's not going to be the same.

[D]

That Eric Earlington. Earlington, Eric.

[A]

We want to hear. I'll wait for his comments.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

Just 120 or 220. What are you working on today? I just thought, I want to sound like a man. Please can I sound like a man once in a while?

[E]

I had a guy come work on my dishwasher this week because I couldn't figure it out myself. But before he came over, I like googled all these dishwasher words. I was like, yeah.

[D]

So I don't know if it's like

[E]

the latch right here is doing that.

[D]

I don't know.

[E]

Maybe it's the power panel that could be doing that over there.

[D]

I had like the.

[E]

But like the buzzwords. So I was like, this guy's gonna be like, I like, least this guy seems like he knows what he's talking. If I showed up, could be the drain.

[D]

If. If I showed up and some guy asked me about the power panel, I would think he knows what he's talking about. Yeah.

[E]

You know, I think it could be the power panel. I was saying.

[A]

Then you're a fraud.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Then they ask backup questions and you're like, ah, I gotta go.

[D]

Yeah. No follow up questions. I'm paying you to be here, bud. Yeah. When I say, Megan, Tig I'm out. Okay. I don't know if you're doing that. I don't know anything more to say.

94. 5 the buzz. Good morning. Rod Ryan Show. Okay, I want to get back into your phone calls. It's open phones Friday, right after Alex does his thing. I'm coming to you online. It's Alex online. 94. 5 the buzz. All right, what you got today?

[E]

All right, today's AOL. I found the Airbnb of public toilets. So it's called near toilets. And if you need to find a toilet near you to use, all you gotta do is head over to today's aol ME Bookmark it on your phone.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

And then it'll tell you where a public toilet is. But it also has reviews that people have left. Like with Airbnb, we're like, yeah, this was a nice place. Would recommend two or like five out of five stars. And you have the stars where like, this is like, let's just say let's not go to the Braze Bayou Greenway Braeburn public toilet, because that has one star. Really one star review.

[D]

That's. This is really good now. It is good.

[A]

My husband would love this.

[E]

There's a public toilet off of Alief Clothing Road.

[A]

Okay.

[E]

Ashford Point. And it's about 5.9km away. I don't know why we do kilometers here. This is America. I understand that, but that has a four star rating. So that would be better one. You have to go all the way out to Alief Clothing. But, you know, and then it's the sandalwood toilet off of Nip Road. K. Nippy Road. That has a five star review. So that is probably the best one. It's a little further than the Alief Clothing one, but you check it out. This is called near toilet. Go check it out today. That's the world famous ride Ride show page, the buzz dot com.

[D]

Hey, you're in luck. It's open phones Friday. All right, let's get back over to your phone calls. Oh, I think I know who this is. Hey, Kyle.

[F]

Hey, Rob. What's going on? Yes, sir.

[D]

Good morning. Okay.

[F]

I've talked about you, Rod, Alex and Mo.

[A]

Hey, friends.

[D]

I've talked about you a little bit on the air.

[F]

Yes, sir.

[D]

You donated these 1980 Miracle on Ice autographed hockey jerseys to us.

[F]

That's me. Yes, sir.

[D]

Now, listen, they were signed by Jim Craig, the. The goalie that won the gold medal in 1980. I believe you got me three of these. I. I was so afraid to put them in in an auction that we do here, like the golf tournament, because I felt like I'm gonna. I'm gonna bid on these things anyways because I'm not gonna let them go for a couple hundred bucks. So I put 500 each in the charity. I gave one to Alex for his birthday.

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

Awesome. But I did pay for him, though. I did. The money did go to charity. You said you got a couple more these, right? I do.

[F]

I. I sent you eight of them.

[D]

Jesus.

[F]

This week. Hopefully you can make some money on them. For sure, bro.

[D]

How are you getting. How are you getting Jim Craig autograph merchandise?

[F]

So for our company, we had a. We had Jim Crab come out and do a. Do basically a promotional speech for us to kind of hype us up and all that stuff. So he sent us the bunch of jerseys. This is actually Covid Error, so we did it through Zoom, but he did a speech for us, and we got all the jerseys and we had some. Some extras. So I figured they'd go to a good cause.

[D]

It's so unbelievable. Thank you so much for your generosity. What's the name of your company? Kyle?

[F]

Yeah, the company's called Lone Star Land Partners.

[D]

What do you do?

[F]

We do acreage. Property. We do it in. Mostly in the Hill country. I do have a property. Property just north of. Of Houston and just north of College Station, actually. So we do acreage. Property. We do residential property. You know, that's kind of our specialty.

[A]

You're my dream, man.

[D]

You should have seen Mo's face when you said Hill country property.

[A]

What I want to see.

[D]

No. Oh, yeah. She wants to leave us and just

[A]

go and just dig my bunker and just live.

[D]

Not shave her legs. I can.

[F]

I can make that happen for you. I have actually up here in the Hill Country. I'm just northwest of Austin. I have some 5 to 80 plus acre. So I can. Yeah, I can. I can put you in somewhere where you're not going to see your neighbor.

[D]

This is great. Kyle's for sure. Kyle, thank you so much for your generosity.

[A]

Oh, God.

So not just that, but those should bring in some money. Oh, yeah, that's awesome. All right, back over to the phones here. Let's go, Dusty. Hello, Dusty. What's up, dude, you're on open phones.

[F]

Hey, for making me laugh so hard this morning. I'm gonna throw y' all a party and y' all come over tomorrow for happy hour.

[D]

Okay? What's the happ? I get it.

That's awesome. Thank you, Dusty. Have a great weekend.

[A]

We're still coming over.

[D]

Oh, yeah.

[A]

We're just not calling a happy hour.

[D]

That's exactly it. Yeah. Is it, Armand?

[F]

Yes, it is.

[D]

Hi, Armand, you're on the air. How you doing?

[F]

I just want to give a shout out. Upper Nighty Houston. It's a indoor black light soccer gym. My kids had a game yesterday. Both of them scored two goals.

[D]

Yes.

[F]

But the cool thing is the dodgeball.

[D]

What?

[F]

I get out there and I play dodgeball every now and then. Black light, so it looks like meteors going across the field.

[D]

They allow adults to play. They allow adults to play dodgeball. Yeah.

[F]

Y' all should definitely come out and do a dodgeball tournament or match or something.

[D]

Let's do it. Okay, now that's gonna bring up some old stories on this show. That was one of the first things I did when I moved here. I. I started up the Houston Dodgeball Association.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

And we made a lot of money. We did, we donated a lot of money.

[A]

So you're pro. Why did it end?

[D]

Because a guy from about 5ft away who was a minor league baseball player, a pitcher, threw a ball and took out a chick's face and like, rearranged her face with the ball. And then the fights from breaking out. And that. That girl happened to be the Wife of an off duty cop. Yeah.

[A]

Okay, Armand, we're gonna pass on your dodgeball. But it was.

[F]

Let me, Let me. Let me just say this. We don't use those hard, cool, like old school rubber balls that give you concussions. We use foam balls.

Texas pizza.

[F]

I mean, right from Buffalo.

[D]

Yeah. I mean, you would go like, think about this. We used to do this website. We used to always go to this website because there were so many executions and there was last man eating. And somebody would keep track when the guys were about to be executed. They used to, in Texas, be able to order anything they wanted. Right. They would eat steak cakes and banana splits. And they stopped that. Somebody put a stop to that. I think Perry put a stop to that, maybe. Or the governor.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

So last meal, A steak or pizza? I don't know. What would you do? Could you have both steak and pizza, man?

[F]

Probably just the biggest plate of fajita nachos.

[D]

Like, I'm.

[F]

I'm chowing down. Chowing down.

[D]

Good. That would be good, too. Yeah. Thank you, Colton. I'd have to go out with pizza. I mean, what's your. When somebody says, what's your favorite food, Mo. Sushi. Yeah, see, I know you already.

[A]

Sushi is my favorite meal.

[D]

You're gonna eat sushi for your last meal ever?

[A]

Yes.

[D]

Which kind?

[A]

All of it.

[D]

Some raw crab.

[E]

You can just ask for all of raw tuna.

[A]

I love tuna.

[D]

California roll.

[A]

No, that doesn't have anything.

[D]

Don't look at me like that. It's sushi.

[A]

It's crab with a K. It's sushi. No, it doesn't.

[D]

It's California roll.

[A]

No, I like raw goodness.

[D]

You don't. It's like telling people you like it.

[A]

Yeah, it's my last meal. That means I really love it.

[A]

Oh, that's a hard one. You. You said Alex.

[D]

My bad.

She deserves better.

[F]

She heard that. And the look on her face, the scowl.

[D]

I'm like, I will yell at him for you.

[E]

Well, like, did. Did you think that maybe that could get mispronounced, though, when you thought about the name?

[D]

Yeah, we. The wife understood that. Yeah. Okay.

[F]

And it happens more than you know for sure.

[E]

It's all love, though, right? She knows. What was it out of spite?

[A]

That's funny.

[D]

Of course.

[E]

Of course.

[A]

Have you ever heard Rod pronounce a name?

No. Stop.

[F]

Oh, good, good. How are you guys?

[D]

Awesome. What do you got for open phones?

[F]

My son's birthday is Monday and he's turning 18. I want to give him a shout out. His name's Corbin.

[A]

[D]

How's it spelled? Yes.

[F]

Corbin.

[A]

Yeah, Corbin, happy birthday.

[F]

Yeah, he's going to be 18. We're going to take him to Austin and hang out for the week.

[D]

Okay, that was going to be my question. What do you do with an 18 year old? You go to Austin. What's he into? What's an 18 year old into?

[F]

Godzilla and everything. You know, I'm trying to get ideas, ideas of Austin hangouts for him for his 18th birthday. So if y' all got any ideas, shout them out, let me know.

[D]

Is Corbin, would you say, I mean, again, I don't know, is he more like into sports? Is he more into music? Is he into gaming? What? What's at 18?

[F]

Definitely gaming.

[D]

Gaming, Everybody's into gaming.

[E]

What's he playing?

[D]

Yeah, he's.

[F]

He just got the new switch Mario Kart game. I know that he got. Got that he's playing that. He loves Godzilla, anything Godzilla. So.

[D]

Okay, well, Corbin, happy birthday.

[E]

Happy birthday, Corbin.

[D]

18. I'm sure he's fired up to get out and vote.

[A]

Yeah, that's what, that's what we did when we were 18.

[D]

I couldn't wait. It was the number one thing turning 18.

[F]

Uhhuh.

[D]

Garrett. Are we going back to back on Garrett's what? Hey, Garrett.

[F]

Hey, good morning, brother Rod. How are you doing?

[D]

Super great, man. You're on open phones. What you got today I want to

[F]

talk about because recently we passed the bill about states in Texas. Got to be from Texas. No more out of state stuff, which is cool and all, but ever since then it seems like there's been a whole bunch of marijuana dispensaries. I just want to know when we're going to finally just legalize it and start stop cutting the corners on it all.

[D]

Listen, I don't know much on this subject. I really am. I'm super ignorant on the whole thing. When you say there are Mary marijuana dispensaries popping up in Texas, is that like the phony stuff, though?

[F]

It's like the, well, they got the THC, Delta, the THCAs, but they don't have the classic, you know what, what we used to get back in the day.

[D]

Let me tell you this. In New York, it's legal. And I was, the last time I was home, I was hanging out with a buddy of mine, and his wife went around the corner and she came back with a joke joint. Okay. A marijuana cigarette.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

I have to explain what a joint is. Smoking a reef. What? Okay, I know Mary Jane.

[A]

Okay? Got it just like, in her hand.

[D]

She came and she goes, I'm gonna go home and I'm gonna go smoke this. I don't want to stay out anymore. I'm gonna go smoke this and go to bed, okay? She went around the corner and bought a joint from where I was. That's. You can't do that here, Garrett. In Texas, you can't go buy a joint.

[F]

Okay, well, they sell at gas stations. There's all kinds of sensories. I know two right up the road from me.

[D]

But is it real? Is it marijuana? That's what I don't know.

[E]

Or is it synthetic?

[F]

It's thca. It looks like the real thing. Smells like the real thing. Yeah, from what I was told, it smells like the real thing. But the little loophole of the law they got.

[D]

Yeah, I, I know there's loopholey things, and I know there's this Delta 8 and Delta 9. Yeah, I, I, I don't mind saying it. I wouldn't take part. It's not my thing. I would vote for it to be legalized. I know that's probably going to piss off a lot of people. Just legalize it. It's legal everywhere.

[E]

Do it.

[D]

Yeah. I mean, you can't be thrown in jail here for what you go across the border and get, and you can go and do legal. That doesn't make any sense to me. All right, well, Garrett, thank you.

[A]

Thanks for.

[F]

Yes, sir.

[D]

Thank you.

[F]

You have a good day.

[D]

Thanks for me pissing off half of our audience right now. Thank you for that. Yeah. Legalize it. I, I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do it. I, I don't. Makes me paranoid. Yeah. Yeah. But it really was weird to me.

[E]

How did you know it makes you paranoid?

[D]

I don't know.

[A]

He's just Assuming.

[D]

Listen. Yeah. She went around the corner. She's like, hey, I just bought this.

[A]

Interesting.

[D]

I went to the store. I bought this. I'm gonna go home and smoke it. I go, can I see what you bought? Like, I'm a nerd. Like, can I see what you bought, honey? Out in public, everything. Look at this joint. I bought, like, holding it over your head like the Stanley Cup.

[A]

It doesn't come in a bag.

[D]

Look what I bought.

[A]

A tube.

[E]

How do you buy it at a store?

[D]

Just like she had.

[A]

Hand it to you.

[D]

She had it in a bag.

[A]

There was a bag?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Like a paper bag.

[E]

There's all different kinds of ways. I'm sure.

[A]

I'm so confused.

[D]

Plastic bag.

[A]

Really?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

And she goes, I'm going to go home. Home. I'm gonna smoke. I go, are you gonna smoke that whole thing? She goes, oh, no, you can't do that. This stuff is, like, super strong now. She said she would take a couple of hits off of it, and then she was going to bed.

[A]

She goes, you've heard of that.

[D]

You boys have a good time. I'm going home. I'm gonna go smoke this doobie doob.

[E]

I'm gonna dobie and listen to the Doobie Brothers.

[A]

Go girl

[D]

fish. I'm like. And she seemed like she was super happy. Like. Like, yeah, this is.

[A]

I'm happy. Happy for her.

[D]

She's gonna sleep like a baby.

[A]

Yeah.
