Transcript

[Rod Ryan]

I'm here on the job site with Dale, who's a framing contractor. Hey, good morning. Dale traded up to Geico Commercial Auto Insurance for all his business vehicles. We're here where he needs us most. Yep, they sure are. We make it easy for him to save on all his insurance needs, all in one place with coverage that fits his business and bottom line. Oh, I shouldn't have looked down. It's all right. We're so far up here. Look at me. Take a deep breath. I'm good. So good. Get a commercial auto insurance quote [e-mail] and see how much you could save. It feels good to Geic. Sam. Here we come. Come on. Come on. Good morning. This is Ed McMahon. And now, ladies and gentlemen, here's Rod Ryan. Okay, come on. Hump day, baby. Smack dab in the middle of the week. We call it Wild Card Wednesday. It's a huge morning for Shannon. Shannon's going for win number five. Fresh out of bed, Head to head challenge. Wow. Chili rewarding with some concert tickets before they even go on sale. Interesting. You want those Landry's passes for the all day ride. Passes Kema, Boardwalk Aquarium, Galveston Pleasure Pier. Mo's got all that for you for spring break next week. She's got those for you on the floor. Fun fact flashback sold out Chris Stapleton tickets. Cover your way at 7:20. We're gonna play don't be a Pig this morning. Haven't played that in a number of weeks. Moon to Mars Festival, which is the two shows going down at Space Center Houston. We've got two concerts going on. We're getting into both shows at 8:20. That's 3:11 and the Wallflowers. Two different nights. Sold out. Creed tickets early in the nine. St. Patrick's Day. VIP, Willys Grill and Ice House. We got he passes. Mo was out yesterday. I can't wait to hear how that went. There she is right there. Hi, Mo. Good morning.

[Mo]

Morning.

[Rod Ryan]

20% chance of rain, partly cloudy, high of around 83. What? Oh, election day yesterday.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, so what do you got for Houston's headlines?

[Mo]

Well, most of the polls closed at 7pm last night.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

And our Texas primary election results are continuing to roll in. We woke up this morning though, to some surprises. And that's what I'm going to talk about. Greg Abbott won the Republican primary and is going to face Democrat Gina Hina Hosa for the governor's seat. I tried really hard.

[Rod Ryan]

I think that was a Good job.

[Mo]

The U.S. senate race was very heated on the Democratic side. The Associated Press just called that James Talarico beat Jasmine Crockett. We've been seeing that all over the TV unfold. Right on the GOP side, the race is going to head for a runoff. That's the one. That's James Cornyn and Ken Paxton. So we will vote again May 26th in that race. Another turn of events, second Republican congressional race. That is Dan Crenshaw. Steve Toth actually beat Dan Crenshaw, four time member of Congress there. And in another big one that is still undecided, we're watching as the newly redistricted 18th congressional district. That is Christian Menifee. You've seen his commercials all over TV. Yeah, he took on Al Green. That one could still head to a runoff if they don't call it this morning.

[Rod Ryan]

You're fooling me if you don't.

[Mo]

Those are all the big ones, right?

[Rod Ryan]

If you don't know what you're talking about, you're fooling me.

[Mo]

Thank you. I tried really hard. Okay, so also globally, we're four days into the US Israel operation against Iran, and the State Department is scrambling to help thousands of Americans that are trapped in the region because air travel across the Middle east has collapsed. So on Monday, the State Department urged Americans in 14 countries to leave using commercial flights. But a lot of the airports have been struck or had their airspace shut down, so that's nearly impossible. Well, now they're confirming that all personnel are safe. They are in contact with everyone over there that is registered as an American, working on getting everyone back and covering their travel. Ra. Do you ever walk through, I don't know, like a health and hygiene aisle and you're like, wow, this stuff is expensive. Who is buying this?

[Rod Ryan]

A lot of money.

[Mo]

It's a new talker research story, a study they did. The Average woman spends $1639 per year on her wellness.

[Rod Ryan]

Vibrators are in there. Vibrators are in there.

[Alex]

Right?

[Mo]

Those do count.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

Everything from doctor's visits, prescriptions, anything physical, mental health. They're counting undergarments here. Intimacy products.

[Rod Ryan]

Whoa.

[Mo]

Unmentionable vitamins and beauty products. So the number seems pretty low to me. But if you're looking at average across the United States. Yeah, I guess I get it.

[Rod Ryan]

I got a little, if you go down on that blog page, a little vibrator for you. Just thought maybe you'd want to.

[Mo]

Thank you for throwing that in there.

[Rod Ryan]

Would you like to dig in on something?

[Mo]

I want to, like, break down the number.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm breaking down the numbers. Chili's got the Blog page going up.

[Mo]

Appreciate you.

[Rod Ryan]

All right.

[Mo]

We saw Christina Applegate all over doing her press yesterday, promoting her new book. Her new memoir that came out yesterday. It's called you with the sad eyes. One headline. I think it's kind of embarrassing. She shared a story that she wanted to ditched Brad Pitt for Sebastian Bach.

[Rod Ryan]

I've heard this before. This is like one of those. Well, this is one of those rock lore stories that Sebastian Bach got chosen over Brad Pitt back in the day.

[Mo]

He wrote about it in his book.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

So she backed it up. She did.

[Chili]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

That's why that story was out there, because he put it out there.

[Mo]

He said it happened in the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards and she had invited Brad Pitt, but he wasn't who he is now. Okay. Then she saw Sebastian Bach and she's like, dang, right, left with him. Brad Pitt drove Christina Applegate's mother home from the awards.

[Rod Ryan]

Do you know this song? It was on it. It got a lot of MTV airplay. Skid Row was pretty big for a while.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Mo]

She got her piece while she could, I guess. Let's talk about Bad Bunny.

[Rod Ryan]

Sure. Bad Bull Bunny.

[Mo]

We had heard that the super bowl halftime show with Bad Bunny had set records. Viewership records. Well, Jay Z Nation, who co produced the whole show, is now reporting that it generated 4.157 billion views worldwide in the first 24 hours.

[Rod Ryan]

Who's gonna go count and say, hey, no, you're off by a bill?

[Mo]

It has not been. No one's gonna independently verify. But they looked at everything, like YouTube, social media, all of the impressions and found that number, which I think is fascinating because the world population is 8.2 billion. So that would mean technically that half of the world saw lit at least once. But we know that's not how it works out. Mr. Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm not saying that it didn't. I just. Who's going to go check your math? Nobody. Other John.

[Alex]

I would check.

[Rod Ryan]

Other John could check it. I'll.

[Mo]

There's some things that I would dig into, but that is not what I'm saying.

[Alex]

And the way that they hyped those kids up before everything and how much fun that they have actually doing it, it was awesome. It was a great experience. She had one for a while, but she was so gassed after it. Drug her around for 10 minutes. Oh, my gosh.

[Alex]

I don't.

[Rod Ryan]

She could not get it. I don't know what I'm getting myself into. I don't know what Moe's got me into, to be honest with you now. Oh, you're gonna thank her. Is there. Was there someone like. Whatever. What am I doing? I'm not. I'm not calving scrambles.

[Mo]

No, right?

[Rod Ryan]

Or scrambling calves. No. You're gonna hype those kids up with all the officers. Mo knows what I'm talking about, and trust me, we'll have fun.

She had a blast. Okay. So I'm gonna have fun tonight. Oh, yeah. Okay. You'll be exhausted. I'm super tired. Working on about five hours of sleep.

If I'm dry. Next question. Hear me out. In recent years, March Madness has been tied to an uptick in what type? Chin. Robert got through first. What's your answer? Sports betting. Sports betting. No. No. Oh, okay.

[Mo]

I hate this game.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, we might all hate this question in recent years. Here we go. Shannon. In recent years, March Madness has been tied to an uptick in what type of male surgery. She's right. 3, 2, 1. No. Vasectomies. Vasectomies in.

[Alex]

Snip, snip, snack.

[Rod Ryan]

It's like you get the snip and then you lay there around, you know, you watch basketballs in your sweatpants for a couple of days. Okay. Balls watching ball. The question is correct. The question was correct. It just wasn't necessary on this day. Here we go. According to the usps, what is the two letter abbreviation for Robert?

[Mo]

Al?

[Rod Ryan]

No. Man, I didn't even think you heard this game.

[Mo]

I hate this game.

[Rod Ryan]

Here we go. Shannon, according to the usps, what is the two letter abbreviation for? Alaska. Al, no,

[Mo]

I cannot, I can't.

[Rod Ryan]

Ak. Ak. It was a good day. I didn't have to use my ak.

[Alex]

You didn't have to use your last.

[Mo]

Do you need more questions, Rod, or you got somewhere over there?

[Rod Ryan]

I, I, yeah.

[Mo]

Okay,

[Rod Ryan]

here we go, guys. Robert's been getting in first.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

So, Shannon, Robert's been getting in first. On every question. Yeah, I hear this.

[Alex]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

Just want to make sure that you heard what I'm hearing. Six time hall of famer Robert Shannon still needs two questions to get in the hall of Fame. All right, listen carefully. Here comes your next question. What mathematical holiday do we celebrate on March 4th? Robert? Pie Day. Yeah. Now, around these parts, Mo yeah. SA and BJ Day is March 14th.

[Mo]

That's why I specified.

[Rod Ryan]

But the way you worded the question, what mathematical holiday do we celebrate on March 14th? Only one answer. Pie Day, Robert. Six time hall of famer wins for the first time since we've made the move to this new studio. But there's Shannon.

[Mo]

I don't.

[Alex]

I don't forget the name.

[Rod Ryan]

Shannon. That was too much Shannon.

[Mo]

Man, you had some chances.

[Rod Ryan]

He did.

[Mo]

He did.

[Rod Ryan]

I did. You going to play again, Shannon? You were fun. I will be here again. I shouldn't have yelled at you about making jokes. You should have made jokes today. We needed jokes.

[Mo]

We needed them so bad.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, Shannon, you got five days worth of winnings, though. And then there you go. Six time hall of famer is going to see the sex pistols on September 13, and I'm inviting you to play tomorrow. Robert, you down for that? Hell, yeah, man. You guys made it interesting today.

[Mo]

You're listening to the Rod ryan show on 94. 5 the buzz.

We had a guy going for the hall of Fame, but now we have a new champion. The Fresh out of Bed, Head to Head challenge. Here's your current champion. Bring him over here. Good morning, everybody. This is six time hall of famer Robert. It's taken me a long time to get back in here. Other John said I hadn't worn more than two in a row since. Since 2022. So that will be fixed immediately. So join me on Thursday when I make it win number two. Yeah, that doesn't sound like a guy that's gonna waste his time or waste our time right now. Now, Shannon, on the other hand, Shannon was great. He had a great run, man. I really thought. I mean, you don't know who's on the other end of that phone. Welcome to my world, Shannon. Okay, open phones. Oh, what's going on? Open phones. I click that phone line. I don't know what that. That wing nut's gonna be saying on the radio, you don't know who you're gonna play every morning. Okay. Shannon's gonna be back, though. I'm sure of it. It's the fun fact of the day. We make you look smart in front of your buddies. It's the fun fact of the day. All right, here we come with some brand new fun facts for you today. Hey, there's Captain Cash. Hi, Hal. Hey, brother Rob. What are you doing? Okay, come on. I'll get to you in a minute. Don't worry about it. I'll get to you. About half of the world's energy is used for heat, keeping people warm. Half of the world's energy is used to keep people warm. Transportation and electricity account for about the other half. But keeping warm is half. Mo looks confused. I don't know.

[Mo]

That's a confusing fact. I would think the other half was keeping people cool.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, right. You know, I didn't grow up with ac. Why is it funny? How would you have an outhouse, too?

[Mo]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

I had indoor plumbing, but we didn't have air conditioning units.

[Mo]

You didn't need it, right?

[Rod Ryan]

My parents had a window unit in

[Mo]

their bedroom, but not the kids.

[Rod Ryan]

Rooms, like white wood. What do you mean? How would you do that? They had a window unit in their bedroom and they slept with a locked door. Like, let us in, we're dying. Here's another fun fact for you today. Jeanette Rankin. I hope she's got a statue somewhere. She's from Montana. She was from Montana. She was the first woman elected to Congress. She didn't vote for herself. Why? Because she was elected in 1916. She could not vote for herself because it was four years before women could vote. She must have been a badass.

[Mo]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Didn't even vote for herself. Or no chicks voted for her. Like, no. What? Finally, speaking of statues, Michelangelo's statue of David. It's 17ft tall. If you haven't seen it, it's. It's 17ft tall. That's neat. The proportions are perfect. It's one of the most beautiful statues of all time. And people think. I think if you see it in a book, you think, oh, it just must be, like, man size, right? Dude size. No, it's 17ft.

[Mo]

That's three dudes.

[Rod Ryan]

The fun fact of the day. We make you look smart in front of your buddies. It's the fun fact of the day. Three dudes. Oh, my God. She just said, that has three dudes.

[Mo]

Three little dudes, two and a half dudes.

[Rod Ryan]

Everybody's very giggly. In here today.

[Mo]

Oh, just another day.

[Rod Ryan]

That's good. Way to keep it light, tight and bright. Hell will ruin that in a second. What? What do you give? What are you giving away?

[Mo]

Okay, so we have these Landry's all day ride passes. They're good for Kema Boardwalk, Downtown Aquarium, or Galveston island historic Pleasure pier. It's a spring break pass. We've got a four pack of them if you know this flashback.

But we got a 20 chance of rain, cloudy skies, highs of around 83. And there's Mo with Houston.

[Mo]

Thank you. Good morning. Most of the polls closed at 7pm last night. And our Texas primary election results continue to roll in. Let me tell you what I know. Greg Abbott won the Republican primary for governor and Democrat Gina Hina Hosa won her side. The U.S. senate race superheated. We know on the Democratic side, the Associated Press just called that James Talarico beat Jasmine Crockett. That one was crazy. And then on the other side, James Cornyn and Ken Paxton gonna have to go for a runoff. Still undecided. You know how they did all that redistricting. Congressman Christian Menifee and Al Green could have to head to a runoff. Opening statements took place yesterday and the long awaited Live Nation Ticketmaster trial. Rob, this is the one that Kid Rock is expected to testify in. So, you know, back in 2010, Ticketmaster merged with Live Nation. They formed the world, the world's largest ticket provider. Well, the DOJ and most states are claiming that the merger created an illegal monopoly and it is crushing competition and inflating ticket prices. We specifically are kind of invested in this. We hear y'. All, you know you're going to buy tickets and you're like, what the heck is going on? The lawsuit is an attempt to break up that monopoly. So we'll see what happens. What do you like to listen to when it's sexy time? That's my question. Let us know on our Facebook page at Rodrin show on Facebook.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, I meant to go take a look at that.

[Mo]

Please do. Because it's a new study. Fan stats kind of shows that a lot of people are listening to the same things. So they looked at thousands of people's public playlists.

[Rod Ryan]

What is this Chris Brown song?

[Mo]

This is the number one song, Clear leader. Oh, like of everyone's sexy time.

[Rod Ryan]

It's not even what artists you like. It's what song?

[Mo]

This song, it's Chris Brown. It's called under the Influence. It's been streamed 1.8 billion times. And if you're titling a playlist on one of your whatever you listen to music on, if you're titling it something like Sexy Time music, that's what they're looking at. And this is the number one song. There's one artist that dominated this list. It is the Weeknd. He is the Weeknd. I think he's a he.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, he's the weekend.

[Mo]

He identifies as a heat.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, he's a dude.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Mo]

I don't know. A playlist.

[Rod Ryan]

So I did put it on Facebook this morning. And you know what it says?

[Mo]

People are.

[Rod Ryan]

It says, what's the best artist to listen to when it's time to Bam Bam in the Ham. Well, how is it you want me to write it?

[Mo]

I don't know. Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Deftones.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Bam, Bam and the Ham. Who wrote that? Me.

[Alex]

Cake.

[Rod Ryan]

Going the distance. Oh, you guys are going. Okay.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Slayer, Pink Floyd. Another one for Deftones. Alice in Chains. Another one for Deftones. Sade.

[Mo]

We can make our own list.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't. It could be anything. I thought everybody's gonna, like, jump on. Like this song, for instance.

[Alex]

Not the Star Wars Cantina Band.

[Rod Ryan]

No,

[Mo]

stop. Wait. What is this song?

[Rod Ryan]

This is Nine in Nails. But it's like. It's too obvious. It's too. It's too upfront. It's too, like. It's just.

[Mo]

Yeah, no, I get it.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't think this is. I. I thought I was going to see all Nine Inch Nails on there. Especially specifically this song. It's a little too up front.

[Mo]

Well, to be clear, just so you get why Chris Brown is the number one song. It also is very.

[Rod Ryan]

Is it up front?

[Mo]

Up front is he. And the music video is like, whoa, that girl's flexible.

[Rod Ryan]

All right.

[Mo]

What on our Googling Chris Brown under the influence.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Everybody is sidetracked with Bam Bam in the Ham. You know what I'm talking about? What artist do you like to listen to when it's time for Sexy Sexy. I should have just wrote sexy time.

[Mo]

Yeah, fair. All right, let's talk about Netflix, because they just announced yesterday the eight new celebrities that are going to compete on the new Squid Game competition show. They're calling Squid Game the VIP challenge. This is when they dig up. You know, I think D list is the right word. Celebrities.

[Rod Ryan]

I forgot about this Squid Game music. I watched that first season of Squid Game and then I just. I don't know. I lost. I checked out.

[Alex]

It wasn't.

[Mo]

Wasn't a game show. Like, it was based off of a game show. Well, it was not real.

[Rod Ryan]

It was a show about a game show.

[Mo]

Right, but this is gonna actually be based off that.

[Rod Ryan]

And they're gonna throw D List celebrities in there.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Who's in there? Kathy Griffin, basically.

[Mo]

Do you remember Tristan Thompson, played in the NBA and was Khloe Kardashian's ex.

[Rod Ryan]

Yep.

[Mo]

Mel B from the Spice Girls.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. She's super athletic, bless her.

[Mo]

From the Bachelor. Dylan Efron. He was on Dance for the Star.

[Alex]

They don't die if they lose, though, right?

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

I can't imagine it being the whole

[Alex]

premise of the show.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, so, no, no, those are the big names.

[Alex]

Kim Ziak Oh, Kim Zak.

[Mo]

Real Housewife. She dated Chet.

[Rod Ryan]

Chet Hanks. Damn it. Chad's stuck in another country. He forgot his passport.

[Mo]

Netflix says I hope we can watch. And definitely trending today. Twisted Sister is going to be touring after all. You remember they scrapped plans for their 50th anniversary tour after de Snyder retired due to health issues. But they're going to play several dates in 2026 with a slight personnel change. Vocal duties will be Sebastian Bach. He's popping today. Today is Sebastian's day.

[Rod Ryan]

You are talking about Sebastian Bach all the time now.

[Mo]

The first thing I googled this morning.

[Rod Ryan]

Shut up.

[Mo]

It first thing I looked up, he still got the long hair.

[Rod Ryan]

He's got two separate stories that he's trending now.

[Mo]

He is. Today's his day. I'm telling you. D seems to be okay with all this. He didn't post about like his feelings, but he did repost the announcement on his own Instagram.

[Rod Ryan]

Cuz D gets money. D gets money. They go out on tour.

[Mo]

There you go, baby.

[Rod Ryan]

He gets money for Twisted Sisters.

[Mo]

He doesn't have to go.

[Mo]

Oh, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Wireless. Soon.

[Mo]

I got a couple more pair of VIP passes for our Willie St. Patrick's Day party.

[Rod Ryan]

What was it like? You were out by South Mason Road.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

And that's close to Willie's in Katie.

[Mo]

It's like an exit away, turns out.

[Rod Ryan]

How was the crowd?

[Mo]

It was so fun. I gave out a couple hugs. It was good. Even though they knew.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

It was like a joke. And then Diego from Willie's came out.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, he's so excited.

[Mo]

He brought me lunch. He remembered not only my favorite salad, how I like it. And he brought me a dike Coke, so I had to drink it.

[Alex]

Oh, man. Even though it's not the weekend, I

[Rod Ryan]

know Diego's the best.

[Mo]

He is the best. So thoughtful and so excited for St. Patrick's Day.

[Rod Ryan]

He's the guy that kind of pushes all the buttons behind the scenes with Willies. When I said, hey, we're going to do some fun things with Willies this year, he kind of. You got to go to him to get the ball rolling on doing fun things. Okay. He's. He's the minister of fun, a cool dude for Willie's Grill and Ice House. So he's got to get the ball rolling on getting them out to the golf tournament and all of those fun things. So that's good. I'm glad you had a good crowd out there. Yeah.

[Mo]

And it's fun to hook y' all up, get you in VIP for the party.

[Rod Ryan]

To my knowledge, outside of winning them on the air, that's it. It's. It's you out on these locations.

[Mo]

I'm going to do another one on Friday. I'll keep you posted.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, God. Friday?

[Mo]

Yep.

[Rod Ryan]

You're not saying where yet?

[Mo]

Nope. Please don't talk me.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm gonna make you say, I want to know where. I want to know where you're gonna be.

[Mo]

I'll keep you posted.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Speaking of the golf tournament. Yeah, it's sold out. We're back, baby. We're back in such a big way. The Rob Ryan show Charity Golf Open. You know, we do a couple of these a year, but the fact that they sell out so quickly, that's great. But now the work really starts, and. And the whole tournament. This one benefits Texas Adaptive Aquatics. It's going to go down on tax day, April 15, and it's a noon shotgun start. Thank you to our friends over at Wildcat Golf Club. So a couple of our friends are in, like, Admiral transfer and rigging. Duke came in, wrote the Big check. And he wrote the biggest check. And that's really. We can't kind of do this thing without him. Great that we sold out all the golf. Golfers. That's huge. Okay. That was where the real work begins on getting sponsors. I had a guy yesterday, and when he comes in, when it's all done, I'll know. But he had an idea. He works at a watch place. So he heard us talking on the air and I said, man, if you got a small business. And listen, when I say small business, it could be your whole world. I don't mean small business like that. I mean. I mean that you're not. Not Walmart and you're not Target.

[Mo]

Right.

[Rod Ryan]

You're not Amazon. You're a small business, but big to you. You're a big business. It's your business. This guy said, listen, I'm in the watch biz. I'm like, are you now? And he knows the guys over at the Jeep slop shop who were there last year.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

It's like, what if we had a hole in one to win a Rolex?

[Mo]

Excuse me.

[Rod Ryan]

And I said, yeah, that would be awesome. Who's gonna put up the Rolex? He said, I will. And I said, okay, let me get you to my guy. I got him over to Logan. Here's Roger, the tournament director. It's stuff like that. It was his idea. I didn't. I never would have dreamed of having a hole in one to win a Rolex watch. I don't have a Rolex guy. I don't have a Rolex either. So I don't live in that space.

[Mo]

No. But I'm a about to take up golf. That's for dang sure.

[Rod Ryan]

So that's something that's being worked on. I already mentioned Willie's Grill and Ice House. They're going to be out there. Whataburger is going to provide lunch to our golfers Mainland tool in casino parties. They're going to have a hole out there. They're going to activate a hole. Grazia is going to be back for our dinner. So sponsors, we need you. Reach out to me if you have an idea or a question or anything like that. That's awesome. The guy that got us the. The guy that got us those USA men's jerseys from 1980 signed by the goalie. He said. He goes, I have some. I have a couple more of those if you want to put them in the auction.

[Mo]

Who is this guy?

[Rod Ryan]

He's gonna send them to me. I don't ask questions.

[Mo]

I'm gonna ask questions.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't ask any. I know. You're a question asker. I don't. I'm like, you have more.

[Mo]

That's so cool.

[Rod Ryan]

Autograph men's 1980 US hockey jerseys. I'm like, yeah, he's going to send those to us. I'm putting them in the auction. USA Hockey. Right now, everybody's freaking out.

Cloudy skies today, high of around 83. I'm getting set up to give you guys those Chris Stapleton tickets. So I'm doing my work over here on my side of the things. The things. These are the things here. These are the things, I guess. What. What's going on on the other side of the things?

[Alex]

Well, trending right now. Lalapalooza is trending.

[Mo]

Wait, why?

[Chili]

What?

[Alex]

Yeah, get ready to lala on your palooza because they announced the dates for this year's festival. No lineup announcement yet, but they're going to do the blind ticket sale. I know. And that's going to probably sell it out anyways. July 30 through August the second.

[Rod Ryan]

Chicago.

[Alex]

Chicago.

[Rod Ryan]

Green Park.

[Alex]

I believe in Chicago, but that's one of the biggest rock festivals or just in music festivals of the year. United States at least.

[Rod Ryan]

I just ran over to the La Palooza Instagram.

[Alex]

They announced the dates yesterday, 19 hours ago.

[Rod Ryan]

Have you missed us? Chicago. Okay. Yeah, but no lineup. You're right.

[Alex]

No, no, but the. The blind ticket sales just. It's cheating that festivals can just be like. Well, you know, for like $60 less. You can still buy all of these things.

[Chili]

Nick.

[Alex]

I have no idea who it is, but I'll resell it if it's not good.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it's, you know, influencers want to be there.

[Alex]

It's smart marketing. Gorillaz, keeping it up with music. The Gorillaz are trending. They announced a North American tour, and so an arena tour and tickets for that are going to go on sale Monday. I did a little research this. They will Be going to Fort Worth and Austin, but not Houston. Okay. The gorillas hate us.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, here comes the gorillas.

[Alex]

They're going to Cincinnati where they murdered Harambe, but they will not come to Houston, who has a much better zoo. And then the World Baseball Classic is trending. That starts tonight. Taiwan plays Australia. The US Is going to play Brazil. I think you said the Plumber's going to go to a game at Minute Maze.

[Mo]

Yeah, he's going Friday. I. I didn't know who was playing.

[Alex]

USA plays Brazil.

[Mo]

Is that fun?

[Alex]

They. I mean, boys and I. We should smoke Brazil.

[Mo]

Villa baseball.

[Alex]

If it's like Japan, usa, Dominican Republic, those are like, the real powerhouses that

[Rod Ryan]

are probably going to win.

[Alex]

And then Puerto Rico, which also counts as America, too. But that is what's trending on 94 by the buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. What you giving away?

[Mo]

I have a pair of sold out Chris Stapleton tickets. He's going to take over Rodeo Houston on March 12th. And you know you want to be there. Okay. But it's not that easy.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, we're going to play a game. Such a pig. Whoa. That's the aggressive one. Don't be a pig. Okay. We're going to play. Don't be a pig.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

I always like to do an example round with you guys. Mo, you want to go first, second, or third?

[Chili]

Second.

[Rod Ryan]

Second. Yes.

[Alex]

I'll go first.

[Rod Ryan]

Alex will go first. Okay. Chili is going to back cleanup if we need him. He's our best guy if we need him. Now, the way the game works is I'm looking for a word, and I'm going to give you some clues. It sounds awful. The clues sound horrible. I'll be honest with you.

[Mo]

Okay? The goal is to keep my mind out of the gutter.

[Alex]

Out of the gutter.

[Mo]

Don't be a pig.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Alex]

It's in the name, though.

[Mo]

I'm ready.

[Rod Ryan]

What you stick in me. Me is wet. Oh, Jesus. Don't be a pig. What you stick in me is wet. A dryer. Alex got it on the first. Let's go. Let's go.

[Mo]

That was awesome.

[Rod Ryan]

Let's go. Would you have gotten that?

[Mo]

No, I wasn't there yet.

[Alex]

No, you're cool, Mo.

[Mo]

I wasn't there yet.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, what you stick in me is wet. Wet clothes.

[Mo]

Okay, what was the next clue?

[Rod Ryan]

The hotter I am, the sooner I get it done.

[Mo]

Yeah, that's the third one.

[Rod Ryan]

Sometimes it's wrinkled when you pull it out of me. Oh, my word.

[Mo]

Where do you come up with this?

[Alex]

No, don't worry about it.

[Rod Ryan]

Don't worry about it.

[Alex]

We didn't get to that one.

[Chili]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Wow. So there you go. You could be the first person on don't be a Pig and win. So maybe you want to go first. I do think second. Second is the best seat in the house. But Chili lined me up. Chili lined me up three seats for Don't Be a Pig for the sold out Chris Stapleton tickets. Well done, Alex.

[Mo]

The Rod ryan show on 94. 5 the Buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

Ladies and gentlemen, a radio service. 94. 5 the Buzz lit and miserable Rod Ryan show. I got sold out tickets. Well, I don't know. Is there a mo effect here? I don't remember giving away this many rodeo tickets before on this show.

[Mo]

I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

It's my first time here and I'm here for it. I mean, especially the sold out ones.

[Mo]

But it's a big freaking deal. People want those.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, this is Chris Stapleton. When's he playing?

[Mo]

He's playing at March 12th.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. And that's the day after Creed Sold out.

[Mo]

Joe, start the theories now.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, yeah. Okay.

[Alex]

The Stapleton's on the new Mumford and Sons album.

[Mo]

Oh, really?

[Alex]

Main song from there called Here. He's on that and he kicks ass.

[Rod Ryan]

Do they have a bunch of special guests? Because when they were on, Hosier was on Saturday Night Live with them.

[Alex]

And it's like the first two songs right off the bat. If you listen to it, it's a pretty good album. If you like Mumford and Sons. If you don't like Mumford and Sons, you're going to not like it.

[Rod Ryan]

They killed on snl. That one song. So good. Yeah, they're so good.

[Alex]

But I'm. I'm biased. I'm a fan and I'm absolutely. If you don't like banjos, you're not going to like.

[Mo]

That's true.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, so Chris Stapleton tickets. Guess what? We're playing a little game this morning. Don't be a pig. Don't be a pig. Yasina's going first. And if Alex taught us something about this game, you can get it out of the gate if you go first. You see it? What's going on over there?

[Mo]

Hey, how's it going?

[Rod Ryan]

Hey, how are you?

[Mo]

I'm doing pretty good.

[Rod Ryan]

Did you hear Alex kick ass with one clue? He got it.

[Mo]

Yeah, that was pretty fast.

[Mo]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, okay. The rails are very bumpy. Yeah, I gotcha. You sound good right now, though. All right, here we go. All right, here's your first clue. I'm looking for a word. Sometimes I've got a ball. Sometimes I've. I've got a ball. Don't be a pig. What's the word I'm looking for? 3, 2, 1. No guess here. No, no, no, no, no. Why. Why is that bell so close to the buzzer? It's two days in a row. I'm having trouble with that. Yasina. Sorry, no guess on that one. Dalton's gonna get two clues now.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Thank you, Yasina. Dalton, good morning. Good morning. Hi, Dalton. Welcome to don't be a Pig. So the first clue Yasina got was sometimes I've got a ball. Okay. All right. Your second clue today.

[Mo]

Nice job.

[Rod Ryan]

[Alex]

Well done.

[Rod Ryan]

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, are they?

[Mo]

Yep.

[Alex]

I don't care.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm worried about my clues. Are they too easy?

[Mo]

No, no, no, no, no. It took me. Yeah, that was good.

[Rod Ryan]

No, it's too easy.

[Mo]

You didn't want Dalton to get it. Dalton's winning. He's celebrating, right?

[Rod Ryan]

No, I'm happy for Dalton. Yeah, maybe I should have gone with. If my fluid comes out too fast, I make a mess. That was the other. That was gonna be the third clue.

[Mo]

I think the first one stumped me, but the second clue.

[Rod Ryan]

Hey, Dalton, have a great time at Chris Stapleton you're not a pig. Clearly. Yes, sir. Thank you. Way to go, dude.

[Alex]

Thank you.

[Rod Ryan]

Nicely done.

[Mo]

What happen happened?

[Rod Ryan]

You've done it.

[Mo]

Oh, geez.

[Rod Ryan]

You're running a story in Houston's headlines, and every song I hear on the

[Mo]

radio, I'm like, could I get down to that?

[Rod Ryan]

Would this song be good during a lovemaking session?

[Mo]

Oh, wow.

[Rod Ryan]

The Weeknd is the artist that is said to be most played as a soundtrack to. How do you want me to word it?

[Mo]

Mommy and Daddy Time.

[Rod Ryan]

Mounting P and the V. No, neither one. None of those. Neither one. Both of those. Bam, Bam in the ham.

[Mo]

Bam, bam. And the Ham was actually really great.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, so what music, what artist do you like to listen to when it's time to bam, bam?

[Mo]

I can't hear my toddler saying bam, bam in the ham. I'm gonna regret you ever making that up.

[Rod Ryan]

Breaks. Go for it. It'll be funny. It'll be funny. It'll be funny. You're not saying anything bad. I cannot believe how much Deftones is coming up on our. Take a listen to this.

[Chili]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. I never even thought of the Deftones being on during a sesh. You know who loves the Deftones? Yeah, Chili. You think he makes sweet love to this? This is really on point. I wasn't hearing it. I never even thought about it. But the question on Facebook. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

The question on Facebook is, what's the best artist to listen to when you're doing that? That. How about just saying that? Yeah, A lot of Deftones. A lot of Deftones. Baby shark.

[Mo]

Goodbye.

[Rod Ryan]

Vanessa wants you to put on Teddy Swims. Oh, I don't know what he sounds like. Really looks like jelly Roll.

[Mo]

Chris Stapleton.

[Rod Ryan]

Does he?

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, is he selling jelly roll? They look like they hang. I saw him at the same table at an award show.

[Mo]

Yeah, they look like they hang.

[Rod Ryan]

You guys nailed it with the Deftones. I don't know. What it is.

[Mo]

Is.

[Rod Ryan]

It's just. It's airy, you know? Like, it's a long session. This isn't. This isn't quick. You don't throw on the depth tones for a quickie. No, it's like, okay, we're.

[Mo]

Who's throwing out a playlist for a quickie?

[Rod Ryan]

No, no. Every song that's being played on this radio station, I'm like, could this be it? Can I perform to this?

[Mo]

You just stay over there, buddy.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm sure people did. But nobody went out of their way to send me a picture. Hey, look, I got my free stack. I don't even know what they were offering. I, I put the offer on the food blog page. There's a separate food blog page today. There's some new Starbucks menu that came out.

[Mo]

Oh yeah, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

If you're a Starbucks person, you know, like, hey, this is the new spring menu. I guess he. What's going on in Houston's headline headlines?

[Mo]

Well, Rod, most polls closed at 7pm last night. Our Texas primary election results continue to roll in some major headlines. The U.S. senate race was superheated. You know, that was the James Talarico, Jasmine Crockett one on the Democratic side and Maga Middleton. Jasmine Crockett just did her concession speech. We just.

[Rod Ryan]

She lost.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

On the other side, on the Republican side, that's the James Cornyn, Ken Paxton race. John Corden. I keep saying James. Which who?

[Rod Ryan]

Chip Roy. Chip Roy.

[Mo]

See him on here.

[Chili]

Okay.

[Mo]

I did see your Uncle Magames Middleton Thanksgiving. You guys can like chat about it.

[Rod Ryan]

He voted with Alex 99 of the time.

[Mo]

Nope. Commercials aren't going to stop because we've got some runoffs. Oh, we have May when the runoffs.

[Rod Ryan]

So what was this? What was I led to believe this was important.

[Mo]

This was important. But some of them, they were too close to call. Okay, so here we go. We're four days into the US Israel operation against Iran. I see the Pentagon is talking on the news right now. The State Department scrambling to Help thousands of Americans that are trapped in the region. Air travel across the Middle east has basically collapsed. And on Monday, they told Americans, you know, you got to get out of there. But a lot of the airports been struck had their airspace shut down. So it's becoming an issue. I'm sure that's what they're commenting on right this minute, as we speak.

[Rod Ryan]

This is a lot lighter.

[Mo]

The next story.

[Rod Ryan]

Thank God it's a lot lighter.

[Mo]

You ever walk through the health and hygiene aisle and you're like, who is buying this expensive stuff?

[Rod Ryan]

Is it well known Wellness? Is that what you call this stuff?

[Mo]

Wellness? Yeah, that's actually what they called it.

[Rod Ryan]

Doing a little self care.

[Mo]

It's a talker research study and it found that the average American is spending almost $2,000 a year on her wellness.

[Rod Ryan]

I love how just in catalogs, even when I was a child.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

They would sell women's vibrators right in there.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

I didn't know that.

[Rod Ryan]

And it was like, yeah, you put this on your face. Oh.

[Mo]

Like this is a back massager.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. Like we know where you're using that thing.

[Mo]

Knew that.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

Yes. I didn't know that.

[Rod Ryan]

But it's so wild. If you put like a. If you put a fleshlight on there, nobody would. Everybody would like lose their mind. It's.

[Mo]

So why can't I just get a back rub?

[Rod Ryan]

I'm just saying that women's vibrators have been in our faces forever.

[Mo]

That's not what this story is about, Rod.

[Rod Ryan]

That's wellness.

[Mo]

I mean, it does count. They did count that, actually.

[Rod Ryan]

That's wellness.

[Mo]

They also counted undergarments, though. Hygiene products, vitamins, skin care and beauty products. So. So when you think of all that stuff, the two thousand dollar number seems kind of low.

[Rod Ryan]

But it's weird to count undergarments.

[Mo]

Bras are expensive.

[Rod Ryan]

The wellness, though, I don't. Yeah, I mean, I'm thinking like creams and vibrators.

[Mo]

Physical and mental wellness.

[Rod Ryan]

What did you buy?

[Mo]

Oh, the vibration plate.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

Red light therapy.

[Rod Ryan]

Wellness.

[Mo]

I think those all count.

[Rod Ryan]

Red light. How's the red light thing work?

[Mo]

Great. Look at me, I'm thriving.

[Rod Ryan]

Are you getting in front of it?

[Mo]

Yeah, I try to do 10 minutes

[Rod Ryan]

a day and what does it do? I don't have.

[Mo]

No idea. Look at me.

[Rod Ryan]

I bought that red light thing for my shoulder.

[Mo]

And you already gave up in the

[Rod Ryan]

corner of my room? Yeah.

[Chili]

I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm not a doctor. I'm not a wellness guy. Me either.

[Mo]

Hey, Christina Applegate in the News. She was all over the place yesterday, making the rounds in the press to promote her new memoir. It's called you with the sad eye. Eyes. Lots of headlines coming out of the book, but one super embarrassing, I think, headline. She wrote about the time she ditched Brad Pitt for Sebastian Bach. He's previously written about this story, right?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

So she's confirming it.

[Rod Ryan]

I read his memoir and I, I, I knew that I knew this story and I didn't know where. But yeah, he wrote about it. So that's cool that she's backing it

[Mo]

up because I thought he was lying. 1989 MTV Video Music Awards.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. You know, a girl in high school left me for Brad Pitt.

[Mo]

I was gonna say, if you were this guy, you would never, never forget about this.

[Rod Ryan]

Good luck trying to confirm that.

[Mo]

They were all teenagers at the time. Christina said Brad Pitt wasn't Brad Pitt.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

But she got to the award show and she saw Bach and she was like, yeah, baby.

[Rod Ryan]

Even though he wasn't Brad Pitt today.

[Mo]

Right. He's still beautiful.

[Rod Ryan]

He was still pretty handsome fella.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

But you know what? What? Sebastian Bach, he was on top of his game back in the day. Okay?

[Mo]

So that's what she went for. And then she made Brad Pitt drive her mom home from the awards. I love that story.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, you gotta mention, I know it's in the other. It's in the other headlines, but Brad or Brad Pitt. Brad Pitt's gonna be singing for Twisted Sister.

[Mo]

Now, Sebastian, it was just announced that he is still in his prime.

[Alex]

He's gonna box, gonna be driving home to twist. Twisted Sisters.

[Mo]

Shut up. Today is Sebastian Bach Day. We all decided. But we got to talk about Bad Bunny and his super bowl halftime show. We knew that it did well, but according to Jay Z's Roc Nation, which is the company that co produced that whole halftime show, they are claiming that Bad Bunny set a new viewership record.

[Rod Ryan]

Good rock.

[Mo]

They say he generated 4.4.157 billion views worldwide within the first 24 hours.

[Rod Ryan]

That's a record.

[Mo]

That's what they're saying.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

I didn't verify it, nor did anyone.

[Alex]

Pretty good number.

[Rod Ryan]

John's still working on the numbers. Other John.

[Mo]

John. Keep us. Keep with us, like, keep us posted. Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Take it, Alex.

[Alex]

buzz this episode is brought to you by Spreaker, the platform responsible for a rapidly spreading condition known as podcast brain. Symptoms include buying microphones you don't need, explaining RSS feeds to confused relatives, and saying things like, sorry, I can't talk right now, I'm editing audio. If this sounds familiar, you're probably already a podcaster. The good news is Spreaker makes the whole process simple. You record your show, upload it once, and Spreaker distributes it everywhere. People listen. Apple podcasts, Spotify, and about a dozen apps your cousin swears are the next big thing. Even better, Spreaker helps you monetize your show with ads, meaning your podcast might someday pay for, well, more microphones. Start your show [e-mail] spreaker because if you're going to talk to yourself for an hour, you might as well publish it.

I guess I've seen a few things on television. Have you guys seen these smart glasses? I hate them. I hate it. Okay, you've seen them then. Don't like them. They look like they look exactly like the glasses that I wear. I wear like a dark rimmed Ray Ban looking type of frame. Yes, right. They have a camera in them.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

And they're recording. There was something called Google Glass about 10 years ago, I think that was kind of throwing up websites on your screen of your. Or on the lens.

[Alex]

And then Apple tried to make those goggles. There was something else, but turns out, like a $3,500 price point is probably not for most people.

[Rod Ryan]

I just looked up smart glasses on Amazon. You can get a pair for 300 bucks.

[Mo]

Oh, really?

[Rod Ryan]

You're wearing a pair of glasses? And how often do you really stare at somebody's glasses? Unless you're really into them? Into glasses, you can't really tell. And you could be. You could be recorded.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Now when somebody's got a phone in your face and they're recording you. Karen, whatever. Sorry. Karen's. Our Karens are cool. But you see somebody filming you, and you're like, don't film me. I don't want to be filmed. I do not want to be filmed. Right now you can see that obnoxious person is standing there with a camera in their face. Now they've got the glasses, and you can't see.

[Alex]

There's a little white dot. There was a guy.

[Mo]

There's a light.

[Alex]

There's a guy at Mile of Meat that was talking to me, and it was towards the end of the night, and he wasn't being weird or anything, but he had had the little white dot on the glasses.

[Rod Ryan]

I was like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

[Alex]

Are you recording?

[Rod Ryan]

You recording?

[Alex]

I was like, don't, Don't. I don't know. I don't know why, but just don't.

[Mo]

There's a guy at Monster Jam, too, that came up to us that was wearing them.

[Rod Ryan]

He was like, I'm sorry. He was.

[Alex]

He wasn't being weird or anything like that, but I was like, I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

Some. I don't.

[Alex]

I don't know that I'm being recorded. What's going on?

[Rod Ryan]

So hang on a second. What was the tell on the glasses?

[Alex]

It has, like, a little, like, white light in the top right or left corner of it.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

And that's the.

[Rod Ryan]

That's the giveaway tell.

[Alex]

It was on here.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, I'm sorry, bro. Like, he was.

[Alex]

He was cool. And I wasn't like, mad at him or anything, but I was like, well, don't record me. What are you doing?

[Rod Ryan]

There's a guy that's come up with an app now. It's called Nearby Glasses. He named it what? It was. You don't. You don't have it on your phones yet. It is just for Android right now, but it's called Nearby Glasses. And it, it's constantly scan. It's just an app on your phone that's running and it scans for nearby signals that emit from the. What? I. I guess these are Bluetooth enabled technology I would imagine so. Wearable devices by Meta and Snap. No iPhone app yet. But the concept. I understand. But apparently these smart glasses are making, they're making a play.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, people are buying them because the price point. You said something came out a while ago and it was $3,000. I just told you there's 299 for these Ray Bans meta gen ones.

[Alex]

So like yeah, they're not trying to do anything with like the glasses part. Like you can record stuff from the glasses but like they're not. Like you don't have the Internet where you can like look at your Facebook page on one lens or anything. And I think that's with glass.

[Rod Ryan]

And yeah, the Google Glass they were trying to do that so you wouldn't. You could just, you watch TV and

[Alex]

then just go about your life. You have a TV screen on the top right corner.

[Rod Ryan]

So they say the nearby glasses, it's.

[Alex]

I get what they're for cuz like

[Rod Ryan]

it's like a GoPro.

[Alex]

Like if you had a GoPro and you were a BMXer and you had your helmet on, you had those under like you don't have to put anything on your helmet. I understand like the appeal for it,

[Rod Ryan]

but the fact that a guy in invented an app and he even says that there it's. It's prone to false negatives meaning it's not quite there yet. So I don't think he's charging but he created an app. These glasses are taken off.

[Mo]

Yeah, it's an issue.

[Rod Ryan]

And do we need to live our lives now? Just assuming we know there's cameras everywhere. Right. You know something goes down on the corner of a street and it's like okay, they go, I mean they, they go around and they're like okay, let's get all these different cameras. Everybody's got cameras outside.

[Alex]

Ring doorbells.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. So we know that we're in that era right now. But like a personal. It's, it's like a, a law officer wearing a body cam and I understand why that's a good idea. But your everyday person walking around and filming and us not knowing it. Super uncomfortable. Super uncomfortable.

[Mo]

Talk me into it.

[Rod Ryan]

That a guy came up with an app to protect you from it and it's gonna go beep beep beep. Hey, something. Someone's filming you right now. Weird. Do we have to assume at all times? Does it make us be. Act a little bit better? Does it make us not say stupid things? Does it make us, you know, behave better? Do we assume that we're being recorded at all times? I mean, and this, that's.

[Alex]

And that's the easy way to be like, yeah, just assume you're always being recorded. Don't say anything you wouldn't want recorded. And that's fine. But just sometimes you're like, I don't.

[Rod Ryan]

That could be good conversation that. I know, I know.

[Mo]

What are these people doing with these videos?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, right.

[Alex]

Most of the time, probably nothing.

[Mo]

Well, why are my kids on your video?

[Alex]

But yeah, it takes somebody like that. That's all it takes.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. It's the. The app is called. And the. The owner or the guy that created it, he even said that, you know, okay, I'm still working on it. But it. It seems to be almost ready for prime time. If you want to look at this. He says it will be ready to go for the iPhone soon. It's just called Nearby. Or. Wait, what is it called?

[Alex]

Nearby Glasses.

[Mo]

Nearby Glasses, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Nearby Nearby Glasses. That's the name of the app.

[Alex]

It would be kind of big brothery, but like, with like the police body cams where, like, people, they go. They go back and look at it later on and you can kind of see how the, like, the interaction went. It would be interesting when you see, like, well, this Burger King employee was yelling at a customer and it's like, no, no, no. The customer has the glasses. Let's go look at what happened first. Like, it would be interesting to see the other side of a lot of things before you get the viral clip where somebody's freaking out and it's like, no, that guy did it. That guy was the guy at fault.

[Rod Ryan]

But also the person that is wanting to have these type. This type of technology in their glasses. They're the ones that are going to be putting out their edited video. Oh, yeah. And it's going to be. This is what I saw. It's like, well, you're not showing me the whole, you know, that goes.

[Alex]

Right?

[Rod Ryan]

That goes with everybody filming everything. The Buzz rock and alternative for Houston.

[Mo]

The Rod ryan Morning show.

[Rod Ryan]

6 to 10am 945, the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan Show. Thanks so much for starting your day off with us. I was talking new app that alerts you if somebody nearby is wearing what they call smart glasses, which are these glasses that record or have the ability to record on. I imagine you can turn Them on and off. The app is called Nearby Glasses. We have a bunch of listeners that have the glasses that I was talking about, the Ray Ban Gen 1, whatever they are. Meta here's a guy here. I'm not gonna use anybody's name. I got the Ray Ban metas, Rod. I got tired of wearing earbuds. Earbuds all the time for work and I wear glasses anyway. So taking calls on them versus earbuds is nice now is that. That's an option. Oh, they're blue. Yeah, but my glasses, they're like speakers on the.

[Alex]

On the side there.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, I didn't know that. That's cool.

[Mo]

But can I hear your speakers? You know what I mean?

[Alex]

I don't. I've never had the glass.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, yeah. I'm wondering too. He says taking calls on them versus earbuds is nice. It's very obvious if you're recording or taking a picture with them. That app, I think is pointless. Melanie says we had somebody come. Melanie said we had somebody come into our shop with those recording glasses and kept saying really rude things to our cashier, trying to bait her into yelling or acting aggressive and then about.

[Mo]

Right.

[Rod Ryan]

But she kept her cool because she knew that she was being recorded with the glasses. She knew that she was being recorded with them. And I knew she was going to edit the video later when she got mad and made it look like she was an angry person at the cashier. Yeah, there's just a lot of gotchas, people. There's a. There's a big group of gotcha people out there. Gotcha. Haha. Gotcha on camera here. We all see this. People baiting people. Just do that with their phones in people's faces. All right, interesting. Alex, what's trending?

[Alex]

A lot of festival stuff trending this morning outside Lands festival is trending. That'll be at Golden Gate park in San Francisco.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Is that a.

[Alex]

That's in August.

[Rod Ryan]

What kind of show is that?

[Alex]

It looks like a little bit everything. They announced the lineup for that, so that's what people were talking about it.

[Rod Ryan]

Who's playing? Who's the biggest?

[Alex]

Xcx, Rufus de Soul, the Strokes, and Glorilla.

[Rod Ryan]

[Alex]

Your four big people I looked up like most like people that listen to the buzz might know. Turnstile Joe, Steve Harrington, Stranger Things, maybe Death Camp for Cutie, Modest Mouse, Wet Leg and the XX are also on that bill. All right, that sounds on sale at noon today.

[Rod Ryan]

That's a 2026 festival, you know.

[Alex]

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it's A very, very common, it's

[Alex]

getting to be festival seasons coming up, so people that they got to sell those tickets for first. So you'll start to see a lot of the lineups start rolling out soon.

[Rod Ryan]

But you said Lollapalooza was announced but no names.

[Alex]

Yeah, they'll probably come out in a

[Rod Ryan]

week or so, but they're going to sell tickets on the name Lollapalooza itself. Yeah, they're gonna sell tickets.

[Alex]

You give them like you cut $60 off the total price and you sell a ton of tickets.

[Rod Ryan]

Do you trust Lollapalooza? Is it still a trustworthy name that you would buy a ticket not knowing what the lineup is?

[Alex]

One of those that I think you're like, yeah, I agree. Lollapalooza doesn't, doesn't, doesn't disappoint ever, really. Megan Fox is trending. She's back on Instagram.

[Rod Ryan]

[Rod Ryan]

So she's headlining the Looking at Girls blog page. She came back on Yesterday at about 5:25 she went back online.

[Mo]

Not that I was watching or had an alert set or anything.

[Alex]

I was just in the report.

[Rod Ryan]

5:25 yesterday was a great, it was a great thing thing that she was back on Instagram.

[Alex]

And then last but not least is Drew Dman. He is the Bears Pro bowl center. He retired or announced his retirement yesterday. He's 27 years old. I think he's played four or five years in the NFL just getting out. And Bears are looking like they might be getting good. So I don't know why, but he was a Pro bowl center last year and he's retiring at the top of his game. But that is what's trending on 94. 5 the buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

Johnny, congrats. Yes, sir. Congratulations, John. Thank you for listening to us this morning, buddy. Thank you so much, John. All right. Be careful getting home. Hang on the phone for me. I saw they released some information. I don't go a lot. I'm slightly obsessed with Costco.

[Mo]

Oh, yeah, no, I get it.

[Rod Ryan]

And it's that one at bunker hill on i10.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

I just can't imagine there's a busier store or a more beloved store on the planet. I've never seen anything so busy in my life.

[Mo]

Even like the middle of the day

[Rod Ryan]

in the middle of the day shocks me. I have tried to find like the cheat code now. Now I have to be here in the morning, but I've gone in the afternoon on a Tuesday and it still looks like Saturday morning. Yeah, that Bunker Hill Costco is the craziest thing I've ever seen. I'm like, okay, is it the busiest one in America? And I looked that up and it's not. I don't know how. The highest grossing and busiest Costco in the world is in Honolulu, Hawaii, Located on Oahu. They generate more than twice the revenue of the average Costco location. What? You couldn't pay me to go there. Okay.

[Mo]

I've never been to Hawaii.

[Rod Ryan]

It's okay.

[Mo]

Do they have everything that we have on the mainland?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, yeah, just about.

[Mo]

Huh.

[Rod Ryan]

A lot of spam. A lot of Spam.

[Alex]

Bam is amazing.

[Mo]

You know, like, if that was, like, the only choice, I could see why everyone was going there.

[Rod Ryan]

No, they got it.

[Mo]

Yeah. They have Target.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, they got a lot.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. So why there's some. It's just the busiest one. I don't know.

[Mo]

And they have said that they have the cheapest groceries. And I know everything's more expensive in

[Rod Ryan]

Hawaii, so maybe that's why Roseville, California is. Is the second busiest one. High volume. Now, the LAR is is the one on Bunker Hill. Is it the largest store?

[Chili]

No.

[Alex]

I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

Aren't all Costco's just the largest physical Costco is in Salt Lake City, Utah. Okay, so all the Costcos in the

[Alex]

US you could, like, cover several states.

[Rod Ryan]

It's not the biggest. It's not the. The most. The highest grossing. So they said they people rated their Costco goes finance Buzz pulled about 6,000 Costco customers to find out which store offers the best shopping experience. And I'm like, okay, Bunker Hill. Gotta be in there. It's the craziest thing I've ever seen. It's crazy. Not that location is not mentioned here as far as, like, one of the best locations in the US As a matter of fact, Texas is not a state with the best Costco locations. And Texas is not a top 10 state when people rated their Costcos, what are you rating Costco's? Cleanliness, friendliness, free samples, samples, parking lot quality, the availability of the things. We don't even have a. Like, we're not even a top 10 Costco. We love our Costco. I Did they ask Texas?

[Mo]

They must have.

[Rod Ryan]

Did they even call anybody that goes to Bunker Hill and i10 I got

[Mo]

a new one out my way, and it is superior.

[Rod Ryan]

Is that one busy? Is it crazy busy?

[Mo]

It does not overwhelm me, okay? I feel good.

[Rod Ryan]

I think the one that I'm speaking of, it's tied in. Usually they're tied into, like, a strip Molly. There's Lowe's. I feel like the parking Is you.

[Mo]

Who?

[Rod Ryan]

I don't mind. I'm not somebody. I will not circle a place. I will not. I went to the mall just this week. I went to the mall yesterday. Okay, we talk about that later. The mall guy. Yeah, I went to the mall yesterday. I will go right to the back and park and walk in.

[Alex]

It's the worst people on earth that

[Rod Ryan]

hold up other people.

[Alex]

Waiting for a spot.

[Rod Ryan]

Just walk. There's that. I know Alex. That Alex will sit in his. I will.

[Alex]

I will wait till I die.

[Rod Ryan]

You know who you're working with? Do you know who you're working with?

[Mo]

With. Don't go to the zoo.

[Rod Ryan]

You kind of have an idea who you're working.

[Alex]

I went to the zoo and I hated it.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

It was so stressful.

[Rod Ryan]

If Alex is getting in his car and he sees that somebody has posted up with a blinker.

[Mo]

Oh, waiting for your spot.

[Rod Ryan]

Indicate that they're going to take Alex's spot.

[Alex]

See you on Christmas.

[Rod Ryan]

He's going to get on chumbacasino.com and he's going to start playing video games.

[Alex]

Rhonda tells me about all these fantastic casino games they have.

[Rod Ryan]

And that's.

[Alex]

I'll spend the next two and a half hours doing that, bud.

[Rod Ryan]

Alex may need to be somewhere and he's sitting in that car. You're the worst person on earth.

[Alex]

It's not that big a deal.

[Rod Ryan]

Do you know you're working with that guy?

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Yeah. He's sitting. He's not. So just. I don't like the balls to think

[Alex]

that I can hold up 17 other people because I need the third spot and I'm going to waste 20 minutes doing it.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, they.

[Mo]

I agree with you.

[Rod Ryan]

Up north.

[Alex]

Grow up, Peter Pan.

[Rod Ryan]

I didn't grow up with Costco. There's Sam's Club and then there's something called BJ's Wholesale.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

They're coming to Texas.

[Mo]

Oh, really?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, they're coming to the Dallas Fort Worth area. Do we need a third here?

[Alex]

They have the. They have liquor in those? I guess. Maybe not in Texas, but Costco has

[Rod Ryan]

a liquor store and you don't need the Costco card to get in there on the side.

[Alex]

I think I've seen BJ's Wholesale Liquor before.

[Rod Ryan]

Probably. They probably like. You know how they have Kirkland brand

[Alex]

at Costco, BJ's brand.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, there's probably. Probably everyone's got their own brand. Do we need a third warehouse here full of, like, to buy a pallet of, you know, paper towels?

[Mo]

Yeah, you're Gonna have to really sway me with something.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

And I just don't know what you have, bj.

[Alex]

I think there's room for everybody.

[Rod Ryan]

You know, it's been a while since. It's been a while since I've done the old what's better, Costco or Sam's.

[Mo]

I like to hear.

[Alex]

I didn't know the difference.

[Rod Ryan]

I found a lot of people have both because they really like, like specific things at each one and it's worth it for them to have the card to pay the money to go buy their products. Am I doing a poll question today? I might just, I might just have a poll question for you guys coming up after this.

[Mo]

The Rod Ryan show, mornings on 94.

[Rod Ryan]

5 the Buzz. 94. 5 the Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. It's bad omens and just pretend. Emergency. Emergency poll question just went up on the X at Rod Ryan Show. We've done it before. I don't remember. I just, I remember how many people told me that mom's got a Costco card and I have Sam's Club and we're all sharing. Like you, you get two for your membership. You get, you're allowed to have like family members or something like that. I couldn't believe how many people go to both. I, I remember that. That. So my question, which warehouse club is better, Costco or Sam's? It's either Sam's, Costco. I go to both or neither. I don't do it. I don't get involved in that.

[Mo]

Fair.

[Rod Ryan]

What is it?

[Alex]

Is it.

[Rod Ryan]

It's about 60 bucks for a card. That sound right? What do you go, do you only go to Sam's? Have you ever had a Sam's Club card? No. Why not?

[Mo]

I don't know. Costco's always closer.

[Rod Ryan]

You think Costco's better?

[Mo]

No, I honestly don't even know what's inside Sam's Club.

[Rod Ryan]

You think like Costco people are like,

[Mo]

that's why I'm really curious. I'm like, am I missing something if I want something? Like if I get targeted ads for something from Sam club. My mother in law has a Sam's Club. So I just be like, hey, can you pick this up? I just assume they're basically the same thing.

[Rod Ryan]

Sam club sounds like Facebook and Costco sounds like Tik Tok.

[Mo]

Does it?

[Rod Ryan]

That's how you just described it with your mother in law. Honestly?

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

No, Alex, neither for you. Because you don't need like big bulky items.

[Alex]

Lived in an apartment or a townhome.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. You want to walk in there for cheese and leave with a kayak.

[Mo]

If you need something, you just ask that.

[Alex]

I kind of want a kayak now.

[Mo]

Maybe we'll pick it up for you.

[Rod Ryan]

Poll question on the X at Rod Ryan Show. Let us know your thoughts on that. Houston's rock, Houston's alternative of all day, and the Rog Ryan Morning Show.

94.5The Buzz this episode is brought to you by Spreaker, the platform responsible for a rapidly spreading condition known as podcast brain. Symptoms include buying microphones you don't need, explaining RSS feeds to confused relatives, and saying things like, sorry, I can't talk right now, I'm editing audio. If this sounds familiar, you're probably already a podcaster. The good news is Spreaker makes the whole process simple. You record your show, upload it once, and Spreaker distributes it everywhere. People listen. Apple podcasts, Spotify, and about a dozen apps your cousin swears are the next big thing. Even better, Spreaker helps you monetize your show with ads, meaning your podcast might someday pay for, well, more microphones.

94. 5 the Buzz Good morning, Rod Ryan Show. Sup is up, up up on this wild card. Wednesday, cloudy skies for most of today and Tonight, nothing over a 20. Chance of rain. Highs of around 83. Next hour, sold out Creed tickets for Rodeo Houston, March 11th. That's next week. And then we leave you today with Willy's Grill and Ice House. We have some of those VIP passes for St. Patrick's Day to come out and party with us a little bit. You can use them whenever you want. They're going to be willies out in Katy on the 17th. Going to be partying all day. Of course, if we're giving away VIP passes, you're listening to us in the morning. We'd love you to come down and be a part of the live broadcast. There's Mo right there. What you got? One final time. Houston's headlines.

[Mo]

Hey Rod, Yesterday voting day in the Texas primary elections results are continuing to roll in. We saw Greg Abbott won the Republican primary for governor and he's going to face off with Democrat Gina Hina Hosa.

[Rod Ryan]

There you go.

[Mo]

The governor's seat at the big race. We know the Senate race was heated on the Democratic side. The Associated Press called that James Talarico beat Jasmine Crockett. She just gave her concession speech again watching as those things roll in. Opening statement took place yesterday. And the long awaited Live Nation Ticketmaster trial, that's the one that Kid Rock is expected to testify in. He's been kind of gung ho about it. Right? So, you know, back in 2010, Ticketmaster merged with Live Nation. They formed the world's largest ticket provider. And several states, plus the DOJ are claiming that that merger created an illegal monopoly that is crushing competition and inflating ticket prices.

[Rod Ryan]

Listen, I know. I know the world and the climate that we live in. What Kid Rock is doing, it really is kind of for all of us. I know that he has aligned himself with President Trump. And I'm worried that people are thinking, okay, this is just Kid Rock doing Kid Rock things. He's literally taking on Ticketmaster. And if you go to concerts, it doesn't matter what show you go to. He's trying to get these. These ticket prices. Price is manageable. Yeah.

[Mo]

The lawsuit would break up the monopoly.

[Rod Ryan]

And I know he's made his choice. He's made his choice on who he's aligned with. But this is not a political thing what Kid Rock is doing.

[Mo]

There's other people testifying, too.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. It's just. It's. Kid Rock is the biggest name out there. And he's just saying, listen, he's friends with the guy from Ticketmaster. He's like, that's my buddy. Or no, he's friends with the guy from Live Nation. And he said, I'm friends with these guys. I've had a great run with Live Nation. Nation. I'm still saying that my friend is making a mistake. It's not good for us. The average person that want, you know, he's talking about us.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Buying these ticket prices. It's a monopoly. Live Nation should not be owning Ticketmaster and Ticketmaster should not be owning Live Nation. They should be two separate entities.

[Mo]

We'll see what happens.

[Rod Ryan]

All right.

[Mo]

What do you like to listen to? When It's Sexy Time. Let us know on our Facebook page.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, a lot of people have been talking about this this morning, and we

[Mo]

ask you on our Facebook page because there is a new study out fan stats. They looked at a lot of people's public playlists. So if you're making a playlist on one of your streaming services and it's titled, like, something that makes us believe it's Sexy Time music.

[Rod Ryan]

Right.

[Mo]

That's what they're looking at.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, this song here, specifically, what is it?

[Mo]

Chris Brown under the Influence. This was singled out number one song. Song clear leader 1.8 billion streams. This is an interesting version of the song, but are you familiar with this song? Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know this song.

[Mo]

It's been out forever, I guess. 2019.

[Rod Ryan]

But is it talking about doing the nasty?

[Mo]

Yes. And the video is.

[Rod Ryan]

Wow. Yeah.

[Mo]

Yeah. But then one artist besides Chris Brown dominated the Weeknd. He has lots of songs on this.

[Rod Ryan]

On the top list dominating our Facebook page.

[Mo]

Yeah. What?

[Rod Ryan]

Deftones. People say Deftones is the best music to make love to. And you're not wrong.

[Mo]

You've been really doing your research over there.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, I'm just kind of reading the comments on our Facebook page. It's been fun this morning.

[Mo]

You've been extra listening to what we're playing on the radio to see if there's any additions.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

Anything else you want to add?

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, I'd stay away from Baby Shark.

[Mo]

Okay. That one did make the list.

[Rod Ryan]

It better not have. What's wrong with you?

[Mo]

Netflix announced yesterday the eight quote unquote celebrities that will compete on their new Squid Game competition show. They're calling it squid game, the VIP challenge. Give me these big names, those VIPs. NBA star and Khloe Kardashian's ex, Tristan Thompson.

[Rod Ryan]

There's a bachelor girl on here. Dylan Efron just did really well on Dancing with the Stars. I don't know. Netflix says it's coming out so soon.

[Rod Ryan]

Is that like Zac Efron's brother or something?

[Mo]

It is. It is also beautiful, by the way. And did very well on dates with the stars. And today is Sebastian Bach day.

[Rod Ryan]

You can't stop talking about Sebastian.

[Mo]

I think it enough like, don't blame me, don't hate me. Twisted Sister is going to be touring after all. They're going to play several dates in 2026. And when it comes to their personnel, they're leading. The vocals will now go to Sebastian Bach.

[Rod Ryan]

I think it's a good fit.

[Mo]

You think?

[Rod Ryan]

I do.

[Mo]

Is it surprising?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

What's Sebastian Bachman doing solo?

[Rod Ryan]

He wants. He wants back in. He wants to get back with his old band. They don't want him.

[Mo]

Skid row old band?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, he's. He's a pain in the ass. I like him. He's funny. He's a pain in the ass. Like, they don't want to want to deal with his nonsense. Yeah, they would be on every rock festival high up large font if he got back with Skid Row.

[Mo]

Interesting.

[Rod Ryan]

And and those guys, I I don't know who needs the money I I at that point but these guys, I don't know who saved their pennies from before they all made money. Skid Row would be pretty big if they got back together with the original line lineup and they just won't have him back. They don't want to deal with it

[Mo]

walking across the street.

[Rod Ryan]

He's got that lead singer energy that they no longer want around. So he's going to sing with Twisted Sister.

[Mo]

We'll see how it goes. Hey, those are Easton's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

What you got over there?

[Alex]

Down at spring training, the Astros are going to play the Orioles today in Sarasota, Florida. First pitch for that game is going to be at noon and you can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk 790. The World Baseball Classic is going to get started started tonight. It'll be Taiwan and Australia opening things up for the tournament. That's gonna get started at 9 o' clock and you can watch it on FS1. And in college hoops, the seventh ranked U of H Cougars are gonna host Baylor tonight over at the Fertitta Center. The cougs are 15 and a half point favorites in this game.

This episode is brought to you by Spreaker, the platform responsible for a rapidly spreading condition known as podcast brain. Symptoms include buying microphones you don't need, explaining RSS feeds to confused relatives, and saying things like, sorry, I can't talk right now, I'm editing audio. If this sounds familiar, you're probably already a podcaster. The good news is Spreaker makes the whole process simple. You record your show, upload it once, and Spreaker distributes it everywhere. People listen Apple podcasts, Spotify, and about a dozen apps your cousin swears are the next big thing. Even better, Spreaker helps you monetize your show with ads, meaning your podcast might someday pay for, well, more microphones. Start your show [e-mail] spreaker because if you're going to talk to yourself for an hour, you might as well publish it.

They get, like, a cramp in my calf.

[Mo]

But I'm pretty sure someone we know thought we were saying cats.

[Rod Ryan]

No, I didn't say cats. I know we're not doing. Who said we're doing cats?

[Mo]

Elliot thought we said cats.

[Rod Ryan]

Radio wizard said we were scrambling cats. I know better than that. Calf scrambling. Why?

It's not us Day is born to be Cash Grammar.

[Mo]

Today is Armed Forces Appreciation Day. So I've heard there's a surprise guest that's hyping up the kids today.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Because I. If I have to called upon, I can recreate the Her Brooks miracle speech before the 1980 men's hockey team.

[Mo]

Here to do that. Just in case, like, it comes down

[Alex]

to it, you should be able to always.

[Rod Ryan]

Tonight, you're the best calf scrambler in the world.

[Alex]

We scrambled them 10 times.

[Rod Ryan]

They might beat you. Not. But not tonight.

[Mo]

See, this is why they picked you, Rod. This is why they picked you. They know that you know, hype.

[Rod Ryan]

I could do the Kurt Russell speech.

[Mo]

Okay, good. If we need to tag you in, I'm sure they can.

[Rod Ryan]

All right.

[Mo]

I'm calf cap scrambling. We're gonna meet some rodeo stars.

[Rod Ryan]

Time out. Time out. Time. Time. Time out, Time out. Get the music out here. Time out, time out. Time out. Are we behind some sort of a barrier?

floor with these high school kids chasing them.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, like getting them all wound up.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Where are we?

[Mo]

We're standing in the middle of it all.

[Rod Ryan]

What if a Calf just comes in and just.

[Mo]

You can. That's why you can have your phone out. But you need to be aware of your surroundings.

[Rod Ryan]

What the hell is going on here?

[Mo]

All right, you can watch on dv, Alex, if you want.

[Alex]

I will.

[Mo]

Okay, good.

[Rod Ryan]

Are we gonna be on tv?

[Mo]

[Alex]

[Mo]

Okay, you get. I don't know who your carrier is. We watch it every night.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. This is the first time Mo and I are doing something together. Like, off campus.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

She has not given me any information at all.

[Mo]

I've given all the information you need.

[Rod Ryan]

All the information you've given me has been yesterday on the air and today

[Mo]

on the air and what to wear. And you said, don't wear your parking.

[Rod Ryan]

Got to wear pantalones.

[Mo]

Long sleeves. Sleeves. Hat is optional. I suggested maybe your boots, but not your boots because you've never worn them.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, what if I wanted to wear something kind of slinky up top? You know what I mean? Yeah. Because, you know, it's cleavage. Hoochie.

[Alex]

Show off the girls.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. People, you know, hooch out.

[Mo]

It's Armed Forces Appreciation Day.

[Rod Ryan]

They don't want you hooching out on there.

[Mo]

No respect for the truth. Respect.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. A Rocky Mountain jeans. A thing still.

[Alex]

High. They're not barrel cut.

[Mo]

Super high.

[Rod Ryan]

Rocky Mountain Jeans.

[Mo]

About barrel cut.

[Rod Ryan]

I remember that term. Rocky Mountain Jeans. That's a name brand or it's like a style.

[Mo]

Style.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

And I imagine bell bottoms are big because Elaine was Wilson.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't have any bell bottoms. You shouldn't buy some. Well, but Keith Urban wore bell bottoms at his event.

[Alex]

The Herb Man.

[Rod Ryan]

Is Brantley Herbal Essence or Luke Gilbert. Cody Gilbert Johnson gonna be there?

[Mo]

Stuff you make me do all the time. No, I have no idea what I'm walking into.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm like, what? This is getting me back this is. This is getting me back for not telling her what we're doing around here. Okay.

[Mo]

All right.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm excited. We'll take lots of pictures tonight for sure. Speaking of Rodeo Houston, I get to touch the dirt. Creed's gonna be on that dirt next week. Do they still. Is it a big thing? Do they ride out in a car or something?

[Mo]

Yes, onto the dirt to the star stage, the Creedmobile. And then they ride off in the back of the truck and wave at everyone as they're going as the show's over. Or some people ride a horse off. Like Cody Johnson rides a horse off.

[Rod Ryan]

Will Chris Stapleton ride a horse in. I'm going to go.

[Mo]

No, no, I'm going to go now.

[Rod Ryan]

He's not a horse guy.

[Mo]

I don't think so.

[Rod Ryan]

He's got a song called White horse. He comes in on a white horse.

[Alex]

Forget about it. Beyonce meta.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, give away the Creed tickets.

[Rod Ryan]

Don't. Don't make me look silly calf.

[Alex]

I had a question, mo that I got a text today about. Are you doing the hat drop or are you letting the cows out? Somebody wants to record this?

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know.

[Mo]

I. I'm not sure. I don't think. I think. I know there's going to be a lot of important people there because of military appreciation day.

[Rod Ryan]

Omg.

[Mo]

So I know it's fluid keeping your eye out. We'll definitely be on the dirt.

[Rod Ryan]

And you got a knob like me running around, around. Jesus. Dustin, have a good time at creed. All right. I appreciate you do too. I appreciate you dropping a hat.

[Mo]

Dropping a hat means starting things. That's how the kids know that the calves are coming.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

You could drop a hat.

[Rod Ryan]

Just tell me what to do and where to be, when to be. Jesus.

[Alex]

If I drop a hat, is that like when they do the handkerchief on the. On fast?

[Rod Ryan]

Like a drag race. We're playing for pink slips.

[Alex]

Exactly.

[Mo]

But it's a dropping of the hat.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, I'm ready.

[Alex]

I think online.

[Rod Ryan]

It's Alex. Online 94. Five the buzz. All right. What you got today?

[Alex]

All right, today's AOL was sent to me by Doug and Doug is a big Simpsons fan. And today's AOL is called Simpsons Oracle. A lot of over the years you may have seen the Simpsons predicted this or the Simpsons knew this was going to happen. And are those things? Well, that's what this website's for.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Alex]

There are all.

[Rod Ryan]

You can go look at all of

[Alex]

the things the Simpsons have correctly predicted. Some of them are confirmed, some are pending, some are disputed. And then you have all of the categories like tech, politics, science and sports if you want to go check it out. But like most. Most recently the war with Iran. Simpsons talked about that season six, episode 19.

[Rod Ryan]

I bet they did.

[Alex]

They did. Elon Musk's political rise and fall season two or season two, part six, episode ten.

[Rod Ryan]

Wow. Did that. So it's got the episode.

[Alex]

It kind of has a loose explanation of what each episode was and who's keeping the stats.

[Rod Ryan]

Other John maybe.

[Alex]

The other John of this Simpsons Oracle site is definitely doing that. But go check it out. See. See how they've had 53 predictions correctly and then 37 of these, 53 have been confirmed true. 14 of them are still pending.

[Rod Ryan]

But go check it out.

[Alex]

See what the Simpsons have been correct about at the world famous Rod Ryan show page. The buzz dot com.

[Rod Ryan]

Who sent that?

[Alex]

Doug.

[Rod Ryan]

Thanks, Doug.

[Rod Ryan]

5 the Buzz Good Morning Rod Ryan Show Papa Roach Even if it kills me. I told you, I've seen their name on a bunch of these. Every festival is announcing right now. You know, that's getting on a plane type stuff. It's fun. You know, I hadn't done it. I have not done it in a long, long time. Probably the last time I got on a plane to go to a festival was Lollapalooza when Soundgarden was getting back together. And I thought this was going to be just a one off type thing. But Alex just announced today and it was like, boom. He just dropped it. He's like, lollapalooza is coming back. It's one of those things that maybe it's been gone for a couple of years. I don't know off the top of my head. But they're gonna start selling tickets to it, thinking that you trust the brand enough to buy a ticket before they give you the lineup.

[Mo]

It's pretty cool.

[Rod Ryan]

Lalaplus is a pretty trusted brand in my blood book. It's still because it comes from a space of where it the genesis of it was an alternative type festival. They still haven't abandoned rock and alternative. It's still the one festival like Coachella doesn't care anymore. Coachella just wants the weekend. And Charlie XCX I feel like Lollapalooza will still try to get a couple of rock bands in there. So I do trust them not getting on a plane and going there. If you're gonna go to Lollapalooza, you better wait for the lineup to come out before you book a plane ticket and do all that stuff. All Right. Nothing. Nothing new on Lollapalooza other than it is coming back. I saw this. St. Louis Cardinals are trying to get fans back into the ballpark. Are they not good? Cardinals are always kind of good.

[Alex]

Some stuff right now.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. A lot of ballparks have aligned themselves with a Coca Cola promotion. And it said there are promotions that are being offered by the Cincinnati Reds, Arizona Diamondbacks. The one I'm going to talk to you about is the St. Louis Cardinals promotion, which is called Coca Cola Unlimited. And then it says here that there's similar promotions offered by the Houston Astros. So the Coca Cola ballpark bundle, it's gonna be for select Monday through Thursday games. Pretty good seats. You get a ticket. Hot dog, soda and popcorn. 29. That's a great deal.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Now it's gonna be for select games Monday through Thursday. When they're trying to get asses in the seats.

[Mo]

Right.

[Alex]

You know why they're doing this?

[Rod Ryan]

Tell me.

[Alex]

Because the pitch clock games used to be like four hours. Now games are about two and a half hours.

[Rod Ryan]

Good call.

[Alex]

If they had the four hour games. This is all you can eat or like you can keep going back and refilling. So you could do a hurting if it was. If it was like refillable.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, I'm not seeing. I'm seeing that this is a ticket, a hot dog, a popcorn and. Okay, soda. But here's. Okay, keep that. Thought I thought it was.

[Alex]

I thought it was refund double.

[Rod Ryan]

Here's what the St. Louis Cardinals are offering. This is their deal with Coca Cola. It's called Coca Cola Unlimited. I don't know why they wouldn't trust us with this. For $29, unlimited ballpark favorites from the concession stands.

[Alex]

That's what I saw.

[Rod Ryan]

This is it. Coca Cola products. So hot dogs, chicken tenders, bratwurst, nachos, fries, popcorn, peanuts, chips, ice cream cups, and of course, Coca Cola Unlimited. Yes.

[Mo]

Where's the asterisk?

[Rod Ryan]

Unlimited. Where's the asterisk?

[Chili]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Is you asking? Is you asking?

[Alex]

2017 championship.

[Rod Ryan]

You can return as often as you like. You can only get three items per concession stand visit.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Alex]

But you can go online a lot.

[Rod Ryan]

Three items. Go deliver them to your boss. I mean, listen, here we are trying to. Immediately. We're thinking deviants immediately. We're talking about trying to beat the system here. It's just for. If it's 29 and you can keep going up.

[Alex]

Yeah, you wouldn't. I wouldn't even think about that. I wouldn't even think about it. Just pay it immediately.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes. So you could go up and get chicken tenders, nachos and chips. And then the next time you go up, you could get a hot dog, a bratwurst and popcorn. And you could go up. You could keep going up, up. Why didn't we get this deal in Houston? Why do we got the one hot dog, one chip, one coke?

[Mo]

We got dollar.

[Rod Ryan]

The ticket dollar.

[Mo]

Dog days.

[Rod Ryan]

There is dollar. What's the asterisk on that?

[Mo]

I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. This is only in St. Louis. Apparently, everybody, like I said, Astros.

[Alex]

Since Astros were bad. We had like three times a week.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

This one's only Tuesdays now, right?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Alex]

And Robbie Grossman was playing. Playing for the Stroz and the Astros fan. I can't remember her full name. Grace was the. The lady from the Houston Chronicle was on. Was that the only one at all the games? It was like, here, have a hot dog. Please come watch us.

[Rod Ryan]

I got to throw out the first pitch a couple times back when they lost 100 games.

[Mo]

Wow.

[Rod Ryan]

They let me throw out the first pitch a couple times when they had back to back seasons where they lost a hundred games. Hey, Rod, you want to throw out the first pitch? Sure. That'd be great. Zaw awesome. It was three people watching me throw out that first pitch.

[Mo]

You can say you have done that

[Alex]

throughout a major league first pitch.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it was great. It was great. I had Brad lynch catch for me one year.

[Alex]

That's pretty sick.

[Rod Ryan]

I put it in his mitt. I can't remember who caught for me the other time. I dirted it.

[Alex]

If the Space Cowboys want me to throw the worst first pitch in history out, I still am offering to do that. Would love to do that.

[Rod Ryan]

I know you have made yourself available to that. I just don't think that we got the better of the Coca Cola. Deal. Deal. No, no. How could you the all you could eat. Are we not.

[Alex]

We got 25 margaritas this year.

[Rod Ryan]

Can. Can we not be trusted with that immediately? You guys thought, oh, my God, you could just keep going up there and get food for all my friends. Yeah. But they could be trusted in St. Louis with that deal, but not us. It's a great deal. Hey, listen, we're talking about baseball. It's all good. We're talking baseball. The Rod Ryan show, our radio network. An Empire upon an Empire on 94.

[Mo]

5.

[Rod Ryan]

Now it's complete control. The buzz. Yeah. 94. 5. The buzz tonic. If you could only see Rod Ryan Show 9:39. I did get an update on the Rod Ryan Show Charity Golf Open. I mentioned the golf tournament earlier. It's going down on tax day. The great thing about it for us is the. The player, the player is sold out. So getting in that way is going to be difficult. But there are still. There's. There's spots available to play that are attached to sponsorships. If you come in at a certain level of sponsorship. So there is some. There are ways to get in. All of this is laid out for you on the. On links and guests on the Rod Ryan show blog page. But our title sponsor, Admiral Transfer and Rigging. Thank you, Duke, for coming in big again. We got this new thing, the House of Blues. I.

[Mo]

For.

[Rod Ryan]

For as long as I've been here, I don't think the House of Blues has ever sponsored anything out at the golf tournament. There's going to be like a libation drink station.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

House of Blues.

[Mo]

Tell me more.

[Rod Ryan]

I wish I could. I just heard that this. They came in. I'm like, I love the House of Blues. Ocean Core, Jeep Slop Shop, Grazia. Mainland Tool Willys Ice House. We'll just grill an ice house. We know they're in casino parties Unlimited. They come in every year. They have like a party hole and they got gambling. You know, teach how to gamble. And you know what they do is they can be hired for parties. There it is. It's called My Watch dude. He's the one that had the idea to do a hole in one for a Rolex. So we're working with my watch dude. If I want to buy a one watch, I want to buy a watch from my watch dude.

[Mo]

Same.

[Rod Ryan]

I want to do House of Bounce. Pass the gravy.

[Alex]

Yeah back. Is that it?

[Mo]

What?

[Alex]

Oh, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

So what, bro? Brad helping out.

[Alex]

Brad. Shout out to him.

[Rod Ryan]

He buys a whole sponsor for you

[Alex]

guys and then never comes out to the.

[Mo]

Stop it.

[Rod Ryan]

He did stop out. I saw him.

[Alex]

I had to dip early. You know, believe it, believe it or not, having a kid really makes you have to be more responsible.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, true. Crowley signs. Whataburger Burger. So these are some of the sponsors.

[Mo]

Dang, Rob.

[Rod Ryan]

That are coming in. And we need more. And we need more. Get your business involved with us. I told you we needed items to be donated for the auction. Everything is benefiting Texas Adaptive Aquatics. So there's still. That's the thing about a golf tournament. And I told you guys, okay, let's get it sold out. And then the work begins on trying to get sponsorships to really get some money. So that the whole thing about this is sure, it's a party on a golf course, but it's raising money benefiting Texas Adaptive Aquatics. Everything's online. Do you have any questions? I. I have fielded a lot of questions, thank you. Your business can be involved with our business, the Rod Ryan show, benefiting and doing good things together. We'd love to have you guys out there on the golf course with us and part party. All right, so if you got a business, you got any questions at all, anything, ask me and I'll get you. If I can't answer it, then I'll get you to somebody that can. What are you giving away on mo the show?
