[Rod Ryan]

Come on, come on. Here we go. Here we go. Hit it, Hit it. Good morning, this is Ed McMahon. And now, ladies and gentlemen, here's Rod Ryan. Oh, yes, sir. Back. Hope you guys had a great weekend. Wakey, wakey. Hands off cup cakey. Oh, it's the last hashtag Monday selfie. Oh, I'm gonna miss you guys. All right, I want a good showing on our Facebook page. You gotta drop a selfie on there this morning and one of you is going to win a 100 Shell FCU. It's a Visa gift card. It's 100 bucks. So last week though. Come on. I want a big showing on Facebook today. Fish need some brand new players in the fresh out of bed head to head challenge. We're gonna play at 6:20 homeroom. You're getting breaking Benjamin Chevelle tickets on the fun fact flashback the Texas hammer game at 7:20 for Weezer tickets. Weezer had some fun over the weekend. I know we've got that on the music blog page today. We're back to giving away AC DC tickets. We'll hook you up at 8.20poppy tickets today on the show. Motionless and white tickets today on the show. W Alex is six picks on links and guests. You kidding me? 10% chance of rain. Partly cloudy, high of 85. Good morning, Mo. What you got for Houston's headlines?

[Mo]

Hey, TSA is going to get paid as early as today. But the big but there it may not mean immediate relief at the airports. Officers still calling out sick in large numbers at airports across the country. They've gone without paychecks for 44 days. The longest government shutdown in U.S. history. Back pay currently being processed. Weekend lines at Busch did shorten, which is great news. According to flyto Houston.com the current wait time at this gate at Bush Airport, 60 minutes. Okay. We were looking at what, like 300 minutes last week, so we'll take 60 minutes. We enjoyed a mostly beautiful weekend, but now we're looking ahead to the upcoming, upcoming Easter weekend. Rain chances are turning this week. It's looking more likely that storms will visit with a cool front for our upcoming holiday weekend. So today, mild Monday temperatures in the low 60s topping out in the mid 80s. But the rain chances climb for Wednesday and Thursday. And then a second opportunity for rain arrives for next weekend. 60% chance for Saturday. 40% chance for Easter Sunday. As you're working on those plans and as you're prepping for the holiday, this Nestle story seems fitting. A massive 12 ton shipment of Nestle's Crunch KitKat bars was stolen in a heist that risks shortages in stores right before Easter. So on Saturday, the company reported a truck transporting over 413,000 candy bars was stolen. The shipment just kind of disappeared while heading between production and distribution locations. Apparently with this story coming out, food heists have become more and more popular. Bad guys are looking at food because it's a lot easier to steal. Harder or it's easier. You can't track food like you can track like an electronic.

[Rod Ryan]

Right.

[Mo]

So let's take the food. I guess in Maine it was lobsters and seafood that they were stealing. I guess it's becoming more and more popular locally.

[Rod Ryan]

Some restaurant, somebody went in there and stole their menudo.

[Alex]

I saw that. Tacos Don Elena. I love tacos.

[Mo]

Down Atlanta, yeah, straight out, walked out

[Rod Ryan]

with the paw, stole their menudo and

[Alex]

put down for doing that. It's not okay.

[Mo]

Us Weekly reporting that Britney Spears is taking her recent DUI arrest seriously. She has reportedly been sober since her arrest three weeks ago and is attending AA meetings. Of course, her rep put out a statement saying, unfortunate incident, completely inexcusable. Obviously a long overdue change needs to occur in Britney's life and that's apparently what she's working on. She did take to social media over the weekend. I know you love to see that, Rod. She posted a video of herself with both her sons on a boat.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, she was missing an IG for a while. I get nervous.

[Alex]

I was worried.

[Mo]

Hey, Weezer kicked off a week of fan events. Unfortunately they're in la, but it does kind of show us what they've got planned. Surprise acoustic rooftop set is what's making the headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, a page out of the Beatles book, huh?

[Mo]

The good news is that set was heavy on the classics. Yep, the songs you want to hear Buddy Holiday say it ain't so. The Sweater Song plus Go Away. Weezer's bringing their party to Houston Toyota center in October. Tickets go on sale Friday 10am Toyota Center.com or we're going to have a chance for you to win them this morning. 7:20 on the Texas Hammer game. Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Just because you're going to get a

[Alex]

bunch of Buddy Holly is always my favorite Buddy Holly.

[Rod Ryan]

You're going to get. You're going to get emails.

[Mo]

Thanks. Okay. Please don't email me. I'm double down on it. Buddy Holly.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, my favorite. Take it Alex.

[Alex]

Yesterday in the Elite Eight, Michigan blew out Tennessee 95 to 62 and then Yukon got by Duke 7372. UConn hit a three pointer with less than a second left to win the game. Duke had been up pretty much the entire time. They led by double digits at half. They're the first team ever to blow a double digit lead as a one seed that was leading at halftime by double digits. So next week's final four is all set. We got Yukon, Illinois, Michigan and Arizona playing for the national title in Indianapolis next weekend. In the NBA, Rockets got a win last night. They beat the Pelicans 134 to 102. Alper and Shanguna had 36 points tonight to lead all players in scoring. Rockets are gonna have the day off today before they play the Knicks tomorrow night. And then in baseball, the Astros got a win. Yeah, they beat the Angels 9 to 7 to split their four game opening series with LA. Tonight they'll host the Red Sox at dyken Park. Lance McCullers will be on the mound for the Strobes going Up against Boston's Ranger Suarez. First pitches at 7, 10. And you can listen to it on our sister Stat, sports talk 790. That is what's going on in sports.

That is our Instagram feature. Already took a look. And because I got an email. Might be AI.

[Mo]

Oh, man, it might be AI.

[Rod Ryan]

I might. I might agree. Tony sent me an email earlier this morning. He's like, dude, come on. This is AI stuff. I said, well, you might be right on that. Ah, it's all right. It'll get you to look at it, though. Let's go. A wonderful AI teacher, but I do think it's AI Today on the show, Fresh out of bed, head to head. Have you always wondered what it would feel like to get on this show in homeroom and play the Fresh out of bed, Head to Head challenge?

[Mo]

Did they?

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. And then you, too. Where the streets have no name.

[Alex]

Was it the Apple Apple Music rooftop

[Rod Ryan]

they put on top of O? It might have been the studio Apple. Yeah. It might have.

[Alex]

Not the computer company.

[Rod Ryan]

Correct. They let the computer company call themselves Apple because they said, don't worry, we're a computer company. We'll never get into music. They let them use the name Apple. The name of the Beatles record company was Apple Records.

[Alex]

And they're like, was Apple Corpse Headquarters.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. But no We're a computer company. Don't worry. Your music, no one's gonna confuse the two. We'll never get into music. They're like, okay, it's Apple music.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, he saved the brackets.

[Alex]

He did.

[Rod Ryan]

He threw the game for you. Yes, he did.

[Rod Ryan]

were crying about your 16 person bracket. They were crying about the bracket. A perfect tournament ride. You shut your mouth. Shut your mouth. Sucked. Other John's a hero.

Welcome back. Thank you. Hey, guys, you're taking on now this guy. There's not a whole lot of. There's not a long story.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

There was a guy on the show, legendary, his name was Jack Jeff. And I just. He was slow. I called him Slow Jeff. I called him Slow Jeff. He hung up before I had a chance to say goodbye. He lost his game.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

And then we didn't hear from him for a year. And I'm like, is Slow Jeff mad at me? Potentially Slow Jeff, welcome back and good to hear. Hear from you, Rob. Dude, I really. Dude, You.

[Mo]

What are you up to?

[Rod Ryan]

No hard feeling. See, he's not mad.

[Mo]

He's good.

[Rod Ryan]

He's not mad. He's just a little slow. Slow. I mean, slow. He's intelligent.

[Mo]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're playing a game.

[Rod Ryan]

It's about slow speed. Yeah, all right.

[Mo]

I'd never questioned that.

[Rod Ryan]

Slow Jeff, have you ever won?

[Alex]

Not yet.

[Rod Ryan]

I keep trying.

[Alex]

I am obsessed with you.

[Rod Ryan]

You like Slow Joe. Hey, you said everyone is invited, so I call that. Yeah. So great to have you back on Other John. Slow Jeff, what are they playing for?

[Mo]

We have a Rod Ryan show T shirt on the line, gentlemen.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. All you gotta do is quickly shout out your name. Quickly shout out your name when you think you know the answer. Now, Slow Jeff, you're going against the two time hall of Famer. Probably should have been a three time hall of Famer, but he threw it for Alex.

[Travel Texas Announcer]

He did not.

[Rod Ryan]

He threw the game not.

[Alex]

He has integrity.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes, he did.

[Rod Ryan]

[Mo]

I'm so old.

[Rod Ryan]

John, you're not that old, okay? None of us are that old. All right, listen, Slow Jeff, you made my morning, okay? I'm gonna keep trying. I hope you do. I hope you never stop trying. Hey, John, you Want to play tomorrow? Sure. We'll get you a Rob Ryan show T shirt. You'll be looking all spiffy. Hang on.

[Alex]

The Rod ryan show on 94.

[Rod Ryan]

Five the buzz or five the buzz. Breaky Benjamin Red Cold River. And we've got tickets. That was just like a little. My friend would call that an appetiz. Right, an appetiz. Because we've got Breaking Benjamin Chevelle tickets coming up. In just a little bit it's gonna be on the fun fact flashback. But we do have a new champion. And I just wanted, you know, we know it's other John. I take comfort in knowing that Slow Jeff is out there still.

[Mo]

It felt good.

[Rod Ryan]

Really. Did not hear from him for a long time. And Alex knows. He had me questioning myself, did I give somebody a name that they just didn't recover? And I'm like, where are you, Slow Jeff Regret. So, Jeff, just reach out to me, please let me know that you're still around. And then he was on today. So I'll tell you what, it's good knowing he's out there. Just like the dude. It's good knowing he's out there, you know. Bring the champ. The fresh out of bed head to head challenge. Here's your current champion.

[Alex]

Good morning, everybody. This is Other John. I am a two time hall of famer and Rod says I could have been in there three times.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Alex]

But right now I'm your fresh out of bed head to head one day champion. Join me on Tuesday. I hope to make it win number two.

[Rod Ryan]

That takes this. Who was that? I love that. What was that at the end there? There's usually no bees involved with Other John's speeches.

[Mo]

Sounded like his daughter.

[Rod Ryan]

Somebody came out of nowhere for that one. All right, I brought in some new fun facts for you guys. 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 go. Many of you out on the roads right now. Thank you. Appreciate you being there for us. The entire US interstate highway system cost $114 billion to construct, which would be around 660 billion in today's dollars. 50,000 miles of roads and 93% of them are toll free. The other 7% are all here.

[Mo]

It does feel like that, doesn't it?

[Rod Ryan]

Come on. No, there's a lot of tolls in New York too. Oh, I wonder if he took crap for this old Dick Nixon. He put in a one lane bowling alley in the White House basement. Richard Nixon did that in 1973.

[Mo]

You mean like you wonder if the press ate him alive for doing that?

[Rod Ryan]

I was like, oh, look at this guy bowling. Geez, who's paying for that? Bowling alley. Privately funded. Privately funded bowling alley. Final fun fact for you today. There was another two lane bowling alley in the West Wing built for President Truman. But I don't think that exists anymore. So there's still one lane of bowling somewhere in the White House. Finally. It would take a sloth roughly 6.6 hours to travel 1 mile. That's neat. They really are slow. I mean, every movement is just so unbelievably slow. 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, Tell your friends all that stuff at work, but do it in front of other people so you look smart. What you giving away?

[Mo]

We have Breaking Benjamin tickets.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, yeah.

[Mo]

They're gonna be in the Woodlands October 10th with Chevelle Cammy Kehoe star set tickets on sale. Yeah. Ticketmaster.com but we'd love for you to win them if you know this flashback.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. This breed of bird just knows to poop outside of the nest. They don't have accidents. Oh, right inside the nest. You guys both said, wow, wow, what a treat. They were wishing they had birds right now.

[Mo]

Both of these two instead of top turkeys.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. This breed of bird just automatically know it's built in. They don't poop in the nest. 713-212-5945. It's now time for rock. Out with your stock. Out with Captain Cash. All right, here's my guy Hal. He's on the phone here. Hi, Hal. Brother Rod. Good morning. Hey, bro. Good morning to you. Always hoping you're well. How do we do on Wall Street Friday?

[Alex Kanchrowitz]

Friday was terrible.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. The Dow down 793 points. Kickoff this morning at 45,166. Nasdaq down 459 to 20,948. Benchmark 10 year treasury that trades at a 4.39% in oil stands at $101.99 a barrel. To the most active, the big studs, Chevron, Coca Cola and Merck. The big duds, Amazon Salesforce and Visa. The economic calendar this morning. It's all clear right now. Futures. Hey, they're on the upside.

[Alex]

Hang on to this.

[Rod Ryan]

That'd be a positive opening right here on Wall Street.

[Alex]

That's it.

[Alex]

5 the Buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

94. 5 the Buzz. Good morning. Rod Ryan show and welcome back from the weekend, everybody. You want to see what Alex's weekend was like? I do. I'm gonna go check out his six picks. I haven't had a chance yet. I've been so busy this morning. Alex's six picks are on links and guests. I'm a little busy looking at all your selfies this morning. Obsessed with the Monday hashtag. Monday 1. Did you probably.

[Mo]

Oh, jeez.

[Rod Ryan]

What is it? I posted a selfie. Is it of you?

[Alex]

Yeah, a selfie.

[Rod Ryan]

What? I'm sorry. Is it a view?

[Alex]

It is a selfie.

[Rod Ryan]

Is it a view?

[Alex]

I posted a selfie.

[Rod Ryan]

You did post a selfie. I'm sure you did the job, but it's supposed to be of yourself. It's a selfie of you.

[Alex]

Well, I guess I do a look and see.

[Rod Ryan]

I. I guess I'm going to have to go look now to see what kind of shenanigans are up. Shenanigans Monday selfie. Your chance to win 100 bucks. Just on our Facebook page at Rod Ryan show the last week, too. It's kind of bummed. Texas Hammer game next hour. And then I got mo Right now with Houston's headlines.

[Mo]

Hey, Rod.

[Rod Ryan]

Hi. Good morning.

[Mo]

Good morning.

[Rod Ryan]

Are things getting better at the airport?

[Alex]

You know what?

[Mo]

It looks okay over the weekend. Weekend lines at Bush kind of shortened up. We're hearing that TSA will soon be paid as early as today.

[Rod Ryan]

Let's go.

[Mo]

But that doesn't mean immediate relief at the airport. Reports we've still got officers calling out sick in large numbers across the country. They've gone without paychecks for over 44 days. The longest government shutdown in U. S. History. The current wait time at bush Airport was 60 minutes last time I checked. Just check before you go. I mean, fly to Houston.com. they're doing the best they can. World news. Iran delivered a defiant message yesterday saying their country is ready and waiting for American troops. Troops to attempt a ground invasion. Their parliament speaker guy accused the United States of publicly seeking negotiations while secretly drawing up plans for a ground assault. He warns us that Iranian fighters were prepared to face US Soldiers if they set foot on Iranian soil. Trump has publicly said he's not going to send ground troops to Iran, though he did add he would not announce it if he were going to.

[Rod Ryan]

No, no, you don't do that. You don't do that.

[Mo]

We love celebrating Houston. And we just made a list for least expensive US Cities for dining out Who?

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, nothing seems cheap right now. No.

[Mo]

I go through the drive through and get chicken nuggets and I spend my whole paycheck.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. And dining out seems expensive. So you're telling me that it's not as bad here as it is elsewhere?

[Mo]

Correct. Food and Wine magazine, they analyzed Yelp data to find the US Cities with the most high dollar Restaurants. Restaurants. And those that are the best for budget meals. And so you get the places. New York, San Francisco, Louisiana. It's expensive to live there. Of course. It's expensive to eat there. But on the bottom, least largest percentage of affordable restaurants. Houston came in third.

[Rod Ryan]

I had a pretty good burger this weekend. Yeah.

[Mo]

Do you want to say where you went?

[Rod Ryan]

Sure. Rodeo Goat.

[Mo]

Oh, I do like it there.

[Rod Ryan]

Never been.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

I've never been.

[Mo]

It's a Dallas.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, I don't know.

[Mo]

I think the first one's in Dallas.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know anything about it.

[Mo]

Yeah, I like it.

[Rod Ryan]

I know I had the Billy F. Gibbons.

[Mo]

What was on it, do you remember?

[Rod Ryan]

Cream cheese. Yeah. Caramelized onions.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Candied bacon. I said chill on the peach salsa. I'm not really into that. And like this super hot habanero sauce, but, you know, I had to, like, modify it, but. Pretty good.

[Mo]

It's really good.

[Rod Ryan]

I guess it's been there for years. I never knew about this place.

[Mo]

Was expensive.

[Rod Ryan]

Moderately priced.

[Mo]

Yeah. I would say Tiger Woods. Why do I feel numb to this story? I'm annoyed by him. He flipped his Land Rover. He was driving fast at his home in Florida Friday afternoon. Tried to pass a truck that was pulling a trailer, clipped it. His Land Rover ended up on its side. He crawled out of the passenger door. Neither he nor the other driver injured. Police said he seemed impaired. He blew zeros on the breathalyzer, but refused to take the blood test. So he was charged with the DUI with property damage. Released around 11pm Friday night. We saw golf fans already wearing his mug shot at the Texas Children's Houston Open on Saturday.

[Rod Ryan]

What is he on pain pills?

[Alex]

I think that would probably be what it would be.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

Can you drive when you're on pain?

[Rod Ryan]

Probably shouldn't. Did you see his truck on its side?

[Mo]

Appropriate, but, like, legally, no. You're not supposed to operate machinery. Right.

[Rod Ryan]

That's why it says that's why he refused the blood test because he knew he'd get dinged for the amount of. Of whatever's in his, you know, system.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

So he's just. He just did some video golf tournament. You See that?

[Alex]

Total Golf League. The Jupiter Links did not win it.

[Rod Ryan]

But he looks. He looks like he's in the best shape of his life. He is absolutely jacked. And he said the goal was to get back and he.

[Alex]

He kind of hobbles around.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, he. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I mean, physically he looks great. We were all thinking that maybe the Masters.

[Mo]

He's coming back, which is April 9th, like next week.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. And then this happens.

[Alex]

I don't think he's gonna.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, now it's gotta be a no.

[Alex]

I don't think he's gonna be at the Masters.

[Rod Ryan]

No way. Just no way possible.

[Mo]

Hey, let's talk about Charlie Daniels. May he rest in peace. He's gonna be resurrected to celebrate America's 250th birthday.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, yeah. Yeah. This is interesting story.

[Mo]

It is interesting. They're gonna use a hologram to headline one of the fourth of July concerts at a military base in Kentucky. They're doing a bunch of block parties for the America 250 thing. Huge holiday. And it's his son that is very excited. A dream come true.

[Rod Ryan]

The family's got. The family's giving it the blessing.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Is there anybody actively doing a kick ass hologram show? Everybody famously remembers Tupac years ago. That was crude. Okay. Compared to what they can do now. What was that? Maybe Coachella or something like that? Tupac, it was like blue. It was weird. It's coming. Is this it? Is this the one where they say, okay, look how good this is? It can happen?

[Mo]

Maybe you're busting out.

[Rod Ryan]

You're busting out. CD for 250 years of America. It better be good.

[Mo]

Gonna be real. American people are gonna be looking at it.

[Rod Ryan]

Right?

[Mo]

They are. And in front of the bravest men and women of our country.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, is it a ton of work just to bring him back for one show? Is this thing going to tour afterwards? I don't know.

[Mo]

Once you've already done it.

[Rod Ryan]

Right?

[Mo]

Right. You already have.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm saying you've created a show with him.

[Mo]

Don't be around.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay?

[Mo]

We'll see how it looks. Those are Houston's headlines.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, that's all on the music blog page. All right, Alex, I know you're loving this Duke situation here. What?

[Alex]

There's a certain meme from the last season of White Lotus that's been pretty viral. Draco Malfoy's dad wearing a Duke shirt. Doing something.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes, that's.

[Alex]

That's. I just saw that right before.

[Rod Ryan]

I forgot about that.

[Alex]

Yeah, that's pretty hot, right now in the streets, but in the Elite Eight yesterday, Michigan blew out Tennessee 95 to 62 and UConn got by Duke 73 72. UConn hit a three pointer with less than a second left to win the game and upset Duke. So next week's Final Four is all set. It's going to be Yukon, Illinois, Michigan and Arizona playing for the national title in Indianapolis next week. In the NBA, Rockets got a win last night. They beat the Pelicans 134 to 102. Alperin Shangun had 36 points on the night to lead all players in scoring. Rockets are gonna have a day off before playing the Knicks tomorrow night. In baseball, Astros got a win yesterday. They beat the Angels 9 to 7 to split their opening series with the Angels two games a piece. Tonight they're gonna host the Red Sox at dyken Park.

There's no 13 year old.

[Alex]

We are dominating those little kids. Actually, we're not. Those kids are much better than us at the game. They have a lot more time. They got a lot more time. I don't have as much time to play games as they used to.

[Rod Ryan]

13 year old trying to get in on your campaign?

[Alex]

No, we used to do it like,

[Rod Ryan]

where we would join.

[Alex]

Like a random person would join. And then it was like so many times we'd be playing late at night and as a little kid and we're like, we're gonna kick you. I feel uncomfortable. Ye.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't think this is allow. Oh, there's those ribs. Is that what we got? That's what we got. Oh, God, I can't wait. Oh, you went to Dewberry Farms? I haven't been in a while. It's a great place to take kids.

[Alex]

Apparently if you go every so often, they give you like a cheaper discounted ticket. And we go every Christmas for their Christmas stuff.

[Rod Ryan]

It's always packed.

[Alex]

It's always packed.

[Rod Ryan]

What's. What was it like this weekend? It was pretty.

[Alex]

I feel like Dewberry Farm just prints money. Like it's a solid.

[Mo]

They know what they're doing.

[Alex]

Business plan like animals. You got the rides. You got all the activities for the kids to do. Like, it crushes and like, the kids wear themselves out.

[Alex]

The final four is trending. We're talking about next weekend's matchups. We got Yukon, Illinois, Michigan and Arizona as the representatives in the men's final four. Alex Duong is trending. The comedian and Blue Bloods actor passed away at the age of 42 after a battle with cancer.

[Rod Ryan]

I saw that. I wanted to ask Chili about that. He's. He's our Blue Bloods guy.

[Alex]

Blue Bloods I was like, I gotta bring this up.

[Rod Ryan]

I know. Okay, Wahlberg's in there, but is this. Is he a main character? I did not know which one you're talking about. I haven't watched the news at all this whole weekend, man. Right, The Asian guy from Blue Bloods.

[Alex]

Huh?

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know how regular a character he was on the show.

[Alex]

Yeah, well, people were talking about him. And then Gina Gershon is trending.

[Rod Ryan]

She got a new book out. Well, she's not looking at girls.

[Alex]

She said she turned down a role in Friday the 13th too, because they wanted her to do a topless death scene.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, she's.

[Alex]

She didn't want to do that.

[Rod Ryan]

She's done topless scenes for her whole career.

[Alex]

But that was too far, too gratuitous scene. She's like, I'm. No, you don't get to see me die. And my boobs.

[Rod Ryan]

She's naked in every movie.

[Mo]

So she may be trying to.

[Alex]

Not everyone. Not Friday the 13th, too.

[Rod Ryan]

No. This was, like, early in her career. She. She wrote a book.

[Alex]

75.

[Rod Ryan]

Now, I think it's just all these things that she's saying in her book that are now making headlines.

[Alex]

But that is what's trending on 95, the buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, we do have a game to play. This is Jim Adler, and it's time to play the Texas Hammer game with Rod Ryan on 945. The bu. Okay. I mean, my mind's right here, right now. I'm on the game. I'm into it, but I think I want another rib.

Turning the rags and giving the commodities a rain check. I mean, incubus writes weird lyrics like that. Like, it's. It's weird lyrics. It's not, you know, roses are red, violets are blue, Blue be my chick.

[Alex]

I wouldn't say it's just Incubus. The right spirit.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. What. Who is that, Alejandro? Well, that would be Imagine Dragons.

[Alex]

It's Time is the name of the song. They write weird lyrics.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. Okay. I don't know where that appears in this. Play it again for me real quick. Turn in the rags and giving the commodities a rain check.

There you have it. We haven't heard that in a while. That's Imagine Dragons and it's time. I didn't hear the lyric. It's in there. You sure?

[Alex]

The first line. One of the first lines.

[Mo]

I missed it.

[Rod Ryan]

This line right here. Turning the rags and giving the commodities a rain check.

[Alex]

Turning the rags is like the second.

[Rod Ryan]

You're telling me that is in the song? Yes, that's in that song.

[Alex]

Packing my bags and giving the whatever a rain check. Second one is turning the rags.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, I believe you. I heard him say, it's time, man. Oh, okay. I heard that part. Good morning, everybody.

[Alex]

Imagine Dragons, before they blew up, I was like, OG Imagine Dragons.

[Rod Ryan]

They came in, they were opening for a band. I'll think of the band's name. Okay. Imagine Dragons was opening for a band. We invited both bands to come down and perform when we did private performances here.

[Alex]

I remember that. At the old building.

[Rod Ryan]

Imagine Dragons. These guys are schooled musicians. Like. Like school, like, trying to think of, like. Like a Berkeley type of deal. Like, these guys, they're trained, right? They're all really Wicked Musicians, the band, the headliner came in and they were setting up and Imagine Dragons got there late and they're like, hey, we're here. Like, okay, we'll go ahead. And they, they went on and played. Where would it. Do you have any idea where it would be in the system? They did Radioactive and I couldn't believe how great it was. And I said, oh my God, this band's going to be huge. I, I don't get that right. Every time I, I get, I get, get a lot of that stuff wrong. And I, I, I don't mind admitting it, but they came in. Oh, is this it?

[Alex]

I think so.

[Rod Ryan]

This was one of the greatest private performances that we ever did. Nobody knew who this band was. They might have used the headliners equipment.

[Hallmarkies Podcast Host]

No way.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. This recording that you're hearing is 15 minutes after they walked in the door, still out of breath, showing up to the radio station, the harmonies, everything. Waking up Ash and dust I wipe

[Alex]

my brow but I sweat my r

[Rod Ryan]

Breathing in the chemicals. Is that unbelievable?

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

There's a couple moments at this radio station in my 22 years. Whoa, I'm waking up I feel it in my bones I got goosebumps. Now this is when we had a performance lounge.

[Alex]

Yeah. So this is. You had to walk downstairs, but there's

[Rod Ryan]

a guy, there's a mixing board. This isn't what Justin did on the microphone in the room with us had

[Alex]

a guitar and that was it.

[Rod Ryan]

Correct. This was a mixing board and everything. But these guys literally walked in and did this. I remember going. I was, I was absolutely blown away the whole time they were playing. The only other time that that happened to me here was somewhere in here there's a recording. Shined down did what Shined down can do.

[Alex]

Oh yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Fred's voice is ridiculous. And then Chris Cornell. Chris Cornell. Chris Cordell did two things. He sang in the studio like Justin did. And I just, I mean, oh my God, there's my favorite singer. And he's just like singing and doing Chris Cornell things in front of me. And then he also did this lounge thing that we used to set up where it was a professional board and everything. And you just couldn't believe, like, how could somebody do that? Like, he's got all the same equipment as me.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

How could he do that? You know?

[Alex]

Much better. Yeah. Imagine Dragons, I feel like they've gotten a lot of. They had that Nickelback thing that turned into where they're easy to hate on, but, but like, I'll never let anybody hate on Imagine Dragons. Because, like, when it's Time came out, the song we just played, like that first album, they had Radioactive demons and all that. Like, nothing ever made me feel like that did when that first came out. So I always ride with Imagine Dragons no matter what. There's that and 1975 chocolate. I was graduating college.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Yeah.

[Alex]

Those two songs came out at the same time.

[Rod Ryan]

I just. The other band, they're a name band, but they had to go on after that.

[Alex]

Yeah. Good luck following this, guys.

[Rod Ryan]

Wait a minute. You're. You're doing. You're on our instruments and you sound ten times better than us.

[Alex]

You just got to give them your instruments at that point.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it's like, you know what? Just take them. And by the way, you're headlining tonight now.

[Alex]

We'll see you guys later.

[Rod Ryan]

They were the opening band. All right. All right. I didn't plan on that. But Imagine Dragons, that's fun having them back on. We've got tickets to give away. AC DC, their Power Power Up Tour is coming to Houston. NRG Stadium, August 31st. We'll have tickets for you closer to around 8:20.

[Alex]

Houston's Rockin Alternative.

The Rod Ryan Morning Show. 6 to 10am 94. 5 the Buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

94. 5 the Buzz. Good morning. Rob Ryan show on a Milk Monday. AI MILF Monday. Is it 100%?

[Mo]

I'm. I don't know.

[Alex]

AI.

[Mo]

Who's in charge?

[Rod Ryan]

Chile. Well, Chile is the gatekeeper on what gets up on links and guests. So it was care. It was submitted? I don't think so.

[Mo]

I don't think so either.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't. I'm going to say. No, it's not.

[Alex]

Wait, it was submitted back to an AI. Another AI submitted the AI.

[Rod Ryan]

Did the guy that submitted think it was real or was it a robot? I think the guy that submitted it thought it was real and he was an anonymous, so I don't know. All right. Well, good morning. It's definitely worth a look though, while you're at it. Alex's six picks food blog page today. See that Kit Kat story is on there. The crazy criminal blog page. There's a lot of stuff on links and guest this morning for sure. Nobody can remember who Imagine Dragons were opening up for. Had to be 2011. 2012. 2011. Sometime around there.

[Mo]

The Wiz doesn't remember I played.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't think he was here.

[Mo]

He wasn't here.

[Rod Ryan]

I think that was pre Wiz. Dang Pre Wizard. Because Alex wasn't here.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

So it's over. Yeah. Imagine Dragons blew up in 20. 20.

[Alex]

20. Late, late 2011.

[Rod Ryan]

2012.

[Alex]

Yeah, it had to be 2012, 2013.

[Rod Ryan]

Nobody knew who they were when they came in and played in that clip that I played for you.

[Mo]

Awesome.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, nobody knew who they were. All right, AC dc. Everybody know who, who that is? I got tickets for you coming up at 8:20. I got Mo right now with Houston's Headlines.

[Mo]

Thanks Rod. TSA will soon be paid as early as today. Might not mean immediate relief at airports. The good news is the national news is not reporting from Bush Airport. Just checked the current wait time at Bush Airport. 30 minutes at Terminal E. You hear that three, zero officers still calling out sick though in large numbers or airports across the country. They've gone without paychecks for 44 days. Who's to blame them?

[Rod Ryan]

I got an email here. She said no name names. She said no names.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

She said, glad TSA agents are getting, are going to get paid and airports will hopefully get a bit more smoother.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

In the coming days. But as a family affected by the shutdown, I have to remind people there are many other DHS employees that still have had no pay in weeks. This is the second time in less than six months that we've gone without getting paid. So TSA is getting paid. Fantastic. But there are still others out there. There. A small number, yeah, she admits, but there's still people not getting paid. That's. Yeah, that stinks.

[Mo]

And the government left for their Easter spring holiday.

[Rod Ryan]

It shouldn't have been allowed.

[Mo]

I know we enjoyed a mostly beautiful weekend, but now we are looking ahead to the upcoming Easter weekend. Rain returning this week, it's looking more likely that storms are going to visit us along with a cool front for the upcoming holiday weekend. Today though, we get to enjoy high stopping out in the mid-80s. Partly cloudy season skies. Rain chances climb Wednesday and Thursday. And then that second opportunity arrives for the weekend. 60% chance for showers on Saturday. That lingers 40% chance for Easter Sunday. And as you're prepping for the holiday, this Nestle story is very fitting. A massive 12 ton shipment of KitKat bars was stolen in a heist that risks causing a shortage in stores right before Easter.

[Rod Ryan]

Kit Kat shortage. Kit Kat shortage.

[Mo]

I think it was Saturday. A truck transporting over 413000 candy bars was stolen. The shipment just disappeared. It was heading between production and distribution locations. I have some leftover, apparently.

[Alex]

What?

[Rod Ryan]

I have some leftover from Halloween.

[Alex]

Good.

[Mo]

You're just gonna recirculate them.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm gonna sell it on the black

[Mo]

Market food heists are all the rage because the bad guys, it's easier for them to steal food. You can't track it as easy as you can like an electronic with a serial number.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. If you want to score some Kit Kats for your kids for Easter, come

[Mo]

see that a guy rod.com you're gonna pay. Hey, I checked in on your girl Brittany. Us Weekly reporting that she is taking her recent DUI arrest seriously. She has reportedly been sober since her arrest three weeks ago. She's attending AA meetings. Hopefully the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney's life.

[Rod Ryan]

Life, who knows these things like that she's doing good and she's sober. Publicist, who knows right?

[Mo]

I mean her rep put out a statement that all of these magazines got. So they probably have some sort of

[Alex]

bigger DUI this year. Britney or Tiger?

[Rod Ryan]

Tiger.

[Alex]

Just cuz it was another one.

[Rod Ryan]

Cuz it was right before the Masters.

[Mo]

Yeah, he was trying to like, like

[Rod Ryan]

it was a possible comeback in the

[Mo]

mug shot, get it back together. Well, and we never saw Britney's mug shot, did we?

[Alex]

It's a good publicist.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't know if we did or not.

[Mo]

She was on social media over the weekend on a yacht with her sons, which she loved to see a mom with her kids.

[Rod Ryan]

What do those kids do?

[Mo]

They're old.

[Rod Ryan]

Well like young 20 year olds. 20, 21. What do they do?

[Mo]

One of them sings. Remember Britney said that's the next time you were going to see her was she was going to be alongside him.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I don't know.

I think we need to do some jelly bean eating this week. Well, what kind of reading? Well, what. What. What's your preference? Not my preference. I got to ask these people. But Chili Brown, like. Like the good ones or like the Starbucks burst jelly beans? You want some gourmet jelly beans? Oh, yeah, yeah. He's fancy now. Send me the rider. Yeah, the contract. So you can slide it. He might want some Kit Kats thrown in there, too, after the performance. No, now that they're expensive, you know, he wants only the finer things in life.

[Alex]

I told you.

[Rod Ryan]

I was in that room where the lead singer, a rat, wanted that bottle of booze before he went on stage. The guy that owned the bar in New Orleans said, I'll give it to you after the show. He's like, no, I demand it now. He knew the guy was going to drink it before he went on stage. Ye 80s hair metal band. Okay, so the lead singers out solo and horrible drinking problem at the time.

[Mo]

Oh, no.

[Rod Ryan]

And they got. He's like, I'm not going on stage unless you get me. I think it was a bottle of Jack Daniels that was in his contract. He goes, I don't have a problem Giving you the bottle afterwards. So, Shelly, you'll get the Kit Kats after your performance, okay? No, I wanted. I wanted a day before my performance. I cannot have you all hopped up on black market Kit Kats before you do your reading from. I need my diabetes to be going up. I forgot. What the. What is the Charlie Brown? It's like. It's the great punk. It's the Easter. Oh, it's the Easter beagle. Oh, okay, that's the one.

[Mo]

Beagle.

[Rod Ryan]

The Easter beagle. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what he's going

[Mo]

to be reading like a dog.

[Rod Ryan]

Snoopy was a beagle. Oh, really? Come on. Tell me you grew up watching Charlie Brown cartoons. Come on. If you is not in a rodeo, Mo doesn't know it, bro. Yeah, Charlie Brown Goes to the Rodeo doesn't exist. They never made that. It doesn't say Yeehaw. Doesn't know nothing. Charles Sch was penning it and then he kicked over right in the middle of penning Charlie Brown Goes to the Rodeo. So we never got it. So there's still rumors that they're going to finish it. AI. But we don't have it. All right, Chili, I'm just giving you a heads up. Okay? Busy week. All right. Busy week. Week. Now, I'm going to avoid asking everybody what time they went to bed last night because I. It never goes well. Okay? But the productivity of your day can correspond directly to what time you get up in the morning. Now this gets talked about on this show. We talk about it. Those people that get up real early with us. We had that one guy, the 5:30 club. He's like, dude, we're waiting for your intro. We're in the 5:30 club. We're waiting for the intro. We got the buzz on already. So it was a. It was a smaller study. It was kind of aimed to find out a time when people could wake up and be at their creative and successful best.

[Mo]

Okay?

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, Chili, rolling out of bed at 10:30 is not going to put you at your creativity peak, okay? Of all those that participated, the ones that got up at 6am were the most productive. They say by a wide margin, they think they found the sweet spot. Now what does this mean? We're not talking about even what time you went to bed. We're not talking about how long you slept. There's something about getting up at 6am that the people were most productive. Next up were those people that got up at 5 and 8. They had similar outcomes, waking up. And they said, yeah, the people that Woke up at 4:00'. Clock. Similar but needed a nap at some point during the day. The other times the people weren't saying that they needed a nap. So in the end there's no right answer. But they do feel like there's some weird sweet spot at getting up at 6am to be your create creative best.

[Mo]

You want to try?

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, I would love that. I. The show starts at 6 mo. We can't do that. Oh, what are we going to do? Like the first hour. Reality style where we're just doing it on the phone.

[Mo]

Reality style.

[Rod Ryan]

Like I'm waking up.

[Mo]

This is an experiment.

[Rod Ryan]

This could be the new radio show though. It's like it's lit. Like you just. All you do is hear me groaning and my back cracking. Brushing my teeth.

[Mo]

Brushing our teeth. Yes. You get that.

[Rod Ryan]

Driving in, listening to the bus does. So they say having a regular and consistent routine goes a long way towards boosting your daily performance. So I that makes sense to me that you'd want to kind of if you want to get up. I know the weekends you want to sleep in. I try to catch up too. They say for your best performance is get that set locked in time. Now, Alex.

[Mo]

Oh no.

[Rod Ryan]

Time to go to bed last. I don't want to know.

[Mo]

You don't want

[Rod Ryan]

what? 9:30? You went to bed at 9:30?

[Mo]

That is nice.

[Rod Ryan]

Look at that little fella. All tuckered out. He went to bed at 9:30.

[Alex]

The big day at the farm.

[Mo]

Dewberry.

[Rod Ryan]

That's right. Dewberry Farm. Alex's six picks. Go see what got them all. Tuckered out yesterday that he went to bed at 9:30. He was out there with those kids running around.

Here we go. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning. Rod Ryan Show. Red Hot Chili Peppers. Black Summer. I told you guys last week I did watch the Red Hot Chili Pepper documentary, but got to be careful on that.

[Mo]

Oh yeah. It's not something else.

[Rod Ryan]

It's not supposed to be a Red Hot Chili Pepper documentary. It's supposed to be a tribute to Hillel Slovak. It really is supposed to be his story, which he is a Founding member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. So it does kind of cut off like Mother's Milk album. And then. Right. They touch upon the success of Blood Sugar, Sex Magic. But that's where it is ends. And it really is just a tribute to Hillel. Pretty good documentary, though. Netflix is where you can find that.

[Mo]

Okay, good.

[Rod Ryan]

Who's calling me? Everybody I know.

[Hallmarkies Podcast Host]

Who is it?

[Rod Ryan]

Wells Fargo is not even my bank.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

What about the ham turkey thing? I. Well, Christmas.

[Mo]

Christmas is Christmas.

[Rod Ryan]

Could be either ham or turkey prime rib.

[Mo]

I don't know. I just made that up. I don't know.

[Rod Ryan]

What am I, millionaire prime rib?

[Mo]

I was thinking Texas roadhouse. They had a big what if you're Jewish poster.

[Alex]

Don't celebrate Christmas. So then you do the.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, but I think Jewish people like to do Christmasy things.

[Alex]

Okay?

[Rod Ryan]

You have to do the Christmasy eating things. Okay. You know, glazed ham, number one answer for a main dish. Leg of lamb was number two.

[Mo]

Lamb. I forgot about that followed by.

[Rod Ryan]

By roast beast. Roast beef.

[Alex]

Roast beast is a close.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. I don't think I ever had roast beef on Easter Sunday. What do you have? What's. What's tradition over there for you? Yeah, we're the Ham Ham family.

[Mo]

Yeah. What time after church? Probably like an early. I would call it supper.

[Rod Ryan]

A supper supper.

[Mo]

Like a late lunch, early dinner.

[Rod Ryan]

Give me your time. 5.

[Mo]

5 o'.

[Rod Ryan]

Clock. It's late, is it? It's late.

[Mo]

That's when we always eat dinner.

[Rod Ryan]

Five o'. Clock. Yeah. So for think. Okay, what time is Thanksgiving dinner?

[Mo]

There's. It's a lunch, like a 2 o' clock situation. Now you're talking football game.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

Yes, that.

[Rod Ryan]

You. You. Because you want to go in heavy at two and then you want leftovers, like at, you know, five, six.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

In the same way, you're still not hungry, but you go in for leftovers. So I kind of treat the Christmas dinner, the Easter dinner and the Thanksgiving dinner. Those are. 2 o' clock for me is the sweet spot. I gotta get over to lunch. There's a kind of. Yeah, yeah.

[Mo]

Especially you. You go to bed at midnight, so. Yeah, it is lunch for you.

[Rod Ryan]

Like, if you eat at noon, you're like 12 hours away from going to bed. So Polish sausage will be on the menu.

[Mo]

Oh, this weekend?

[Rod Ryan]

Yes.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

And then we're making pierogies. So hopefully I'll bring you guys in some pierogies.

[Mo]

Wait for that? You're making butter?

[Rod Ryan]

I gotta construct a butter lamb. I'm not making the butter. Oh, I could.

[Mo]

What?

[Rod Ryan]

But I have to make you a butter lamb.

[Mo]

You promise?

[Rod Ryan]

Are you gonna put it on your table?

[Mo]

Yes, it's. I've already RSVP'd butter lamb.

[Rod Ryan]

Don't buy butter.

[Mo]

Okay. I always have butter at my house.

[Rod Ryan]

Don't have butter.

[Mo]

Don't have butter.

[Rod Ryan]

Count on me for the butter lamb. Okay.

[Mo]

You heard it here first. Mama Rod Ryan, butter lamb seeds. Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Now they. I gotta get over to the. There's a Polish grocery store in Houston.

[Mo]

Really?

[Rod Ryan]

Well, there's, you know, probably everything. Very diversity on Blalak. There is a Polish grocery store. They sell a butter. Poland is what they call that place. They sell a buttered lamb. You know, you gotta make them.

[Mo]

I think Trader Joe's has them as

[Rod Ryan]

well, so I'm not crazy.

[Mo]

Butter lambs.

[Rod Ryan]

There's a butter lamb at Trader Joe's.

[Mo]

I'm almost positive. Yes. Yeah, I've seen it, though.

[Alex]

DJs is making buttered lamps.

[Mo]

They love to celebrate.

[Rod Ryan]

Who knew that we Were going mainstream. Who knew that we were going so mainstream? Pretty big.

[Mo]

Duval, does that make you feel good?

[Rod Ryan]

Well, yeah, because I think people thought I was a little crazy when I would bring up a butter lamb.

[Mo]

That was one of the first things that you asked me about that in my interview.

[Rod Ryan]

I asked you about a butter lamb?

[Alex]

You did. Let's see if you're weird.

[Rod Ryan]

I brought up a butter lamb in our interview.

[Mo]

I just made that up.

[Rod Ryan]

Of all the things that I didn't ask you, there were a lot of

[Mo]

things you did not ask.

[Rod Ryan]

I can think of something I should have asked you. And you interview. Hey, have you ever seen a movie?

[Alex]

Have you seen more than one movie?

[Rod Ryan]

Have you ever seen a movie?

[Mo]

Nope.

[Alex]

No. Seen Titanic and that's it.

[Mo]

Fast of the Furious. Okay. Parent Trap is my favorite.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. So if you're having ham roast beef

[Alex]

or

[Rod Ryan]

ham roast beef or what did

[Mo]

I say ham recipe.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, leg of lamb. I, I, I don't know what to do with a leg of lamb. I don't. I wouldn't know how to prepare it.

[Mo]

No. Wouldn't know how to buy it, where to put it.

[Rod Ryan]

What's the potato?

[Mo]

Ooh, scallops.

[Rod Ryan]

Scalloped potatoes.

[Mo]

Yeah, obviously. I mean, I. You can never go wrong with the

[Rod Ryan]

mash I got to make. I have to make mashed potatoes. Cuz. Potato. A mashed potato mixture goes into one of the pierogies. Potato, potato, and cheese. So, like a cheesy mashed potato goes inside one of the pierogies or be so excited. Sour sauerkraut.

[Mo]

I'm good without that one.

[Rod Ryan]

That's kapusta.

[Alex]

Right.

[Rod Ryan]

Obviously. Then you have the cheese and potato, and then you have babushka, a farmer's cheese. That's another reason why I got to go to the Polish store. Cannot get farmer's cheese anywhere here.

[Mo]

It's just cheese.

[Alex]

You don't got farmers anywhere else.

[Rod Ryan]

It's like. It's a milder goat cheese.

[Mo]

That sounds amazing.

[Rod Ryan]

Because it's not. It's farmer's cheese, and I can't find it anywhere.

[Mo]

Let's go.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, so I gotta go. I'm going shopping this week. I'm eating. All right, Countdown. You're gonna make roast.

[Alex]

Might make it.

[Mo]

I might just go to Arby's.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Mo]

Be done.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm not gonna go to Arby's.

[Mo]

They got the meat.

[Rod Ryan]

All right. We're getting ready for Easter around here. Chili, jelly beans, chili brown, all of that. That's happening this week. That's happening this week. Trust me.

Me too, Kyle. The band's name is Return to dust. The song is called bored and it really is replacing my call. Coffee.

[Alex]

I don't need it.

[Rod Ryan]

I don't even need the coffee.

[Mo]

Sunday, you're back.

[Rod Ryan]

Sunday I will. I will be back on coffee for sure. My sense of smell. Coffee. My smell is really not the best. Yeah, you have like the bionic sniffer. I can smell coffee a mile away now.

[Mo]

Because you want it so bad.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, it's weird. It really is weird. God, I'm addicted. I'm addicted. We were talking about Easter Sunday. Marcus says smoked brick brisket, mashed potatoes, asparagus, broccoli, baby carrots, brown gravy, house salad at 5pm that is our Sunday.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

My sister. I put it up on stories over the weekend. Snow was coming down.

[Mo]

Oh my goodness.

[Rod Ryan]

In the home office of North Tonawana. Like a full on snowstorm. So that's why we didn't do like briskets and like you wouldn't even think of bringing out the grill yet. So we didn't do that. It makes sense down here that a lot of you are doing the smoked meats and all of that stuff.

[Mo]

We literally have brisket with every meal.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mo]

It doesn't matter.

[Rod Ryan]

We didn't. Yeah, no grills are out yet. Josh Tree says Ogratin goes hard. You're right.

[Mo]

You're right.

[Rod Ryan]

O' Grotton goes hard.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

We learned that on the show that became a band name. Easter at our house, Rod says Kevin Johnson, it's always a seafood boil. Crawfish, crab, shrimp, all the fixings. Longtime listeners, listener. Kevin. The only, the only thing I would say to that is Friday is a big seafood day. Good Friday is maybe the biggest seafood day of the year.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

So I get it. Not everybody's Catholic. I'm just saying good Friday is a massive seafood day.

[Mo]

We have a party to go to. It's crawfish yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah. So it's weird to also think about doing one on Sunday, too, but it's

[Mo]

a lot of crawfish.

[Rod Ryan]

Sounds like a good time. All right. You know what sounds like a good time?

[Mo]

What?

[Rod Ryan]

Chili Brady Brown. Maybe tomorrow.

[Alex]

He wanted warning. You can't. Like, wouldn't this be a Wednesday thing?

[Rod Ryan]

What are you, his manager? A little bit. I mean, twin brothers.

[Alex]

I look out for my family.

[Rod Ryan]

I didn't know you guys managed one another.

[Alex]

We kind of do when no one else is managing. I have to be there to manage him.

[Rod Ryan]

What kind of prep time do you think Chili needs?

[Alex]

He's going to have to take tums

[Rod Ryan]

to put OTC to put 25 jelly beans in his mouth and read a page out of a Charlie Brown book. What kind of lead time do you need? Need here?

[Alex]

I need. I think we're gonna need to. Wednesday. Let's push it to Wednesday. Okay. Best I can do with my client is Wednesday.

Hey. TSA will soon be paid as early as today. I know. Back pay is currently being processed. Weekend lines at Bush did Shorten. According to flytohouston.com the current wait time at Bush Airport is 30 minutes at this gate. So that's good news. In world news, Iran delivered a defiant message yesterday saying their country is ready and waiting for American troops to attempt a ground invasion. Their parliament speaker accused the US of publicly seeking negotiations while secretly drawing up plans for a ground assault. President Trump has publicly said he's not sending ground troops to Iran, though he did add, if he did do it, he would not publicly announce that he was doing it. We love celebrating our great city of Houston. And we just made the the list for least expensive US Cities for dining out. Which kind of seems crazy cuz have you been through the drive thru lately? Like my whole paycheck I just been on chicken nuggets.

[Rod Ryan]

That's not dining out.

[Mo]

You don't count that as dining out?

[Rod Ryan]

I don't think so.

[Mo]

I count it in the budget.

[Rod Ryan]

Well, yeah, food in general, super expensive.

[Mo]

Everything's expensive.

[Rod Ryan]

But dining out is sitting down to me. And when I do it and I see that check come, holy cow. It's a lot.

[Mo]

It's expensive and apparently it's not bad Here in Houston. The worst places are places where it's expensive to live. New York, San Francisco, Louisiana. Yeah, we get that. But the top five metro areas with the largest percentage of affordable restaurants, Houston comes in number three.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay, that's good news.

[Mo]

I think that's great for us. So it could be worse.

[Rod Ryan]

Where are you guys going to eat? That's cheap. Let us know like where is it good, affordable and cheap.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

And I'm not talking about a food truck because food trucks are ridiculous now too. They are food trucks is like going out to eat.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Where is it really good and cheap to eat? Share it. Let us come to. Let us eat there.

Insert the blank Tiger woods headlines this weekend. After flipping his Land Rover at a high speed near his home floor, Florida, Friday afternoon, tried to pass a truck pulling a trailer. He clipped it. His Land Rover ended up on its side. Tiger crawled out of the passenger door. Neither him nor the other driver was injured. Police were like, you seem impaired. He blew zeros on the breathalyzer, refused to take a blood test. That's why he's went to jail. And that's why we are seeing the mug shots on T shirts at the Houston Open golf tour in the mountains. I Saturday.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, they don't waste much time.

[Mo]

They're fast. It was a rumor that Tiger was going to play Augusta, the masters next week, April 9th.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes.

[Mo]

Is that looking like maybe not going to maybe not happen now?

[Rod Ryan]

There's no way.

[Alex]

I doubt it. Did you guys see the joke that everybody had this weekend? A lion wouldn't drive drunk, but a tiger would.

[Rod Ryan]

Wow. I saw a couple of of think of something that you wouldn't want to do. And you say I'd still rather ride shotgun with Tiger than yeah, no, like I, I so bad don't want to do that. I would rather ride shotgun in Tiger woods car.

[Mo]

The names that came Out Charlie Daniels in the headlines. He's gonna be resurrected to celebrate America's 250th birthday. To be clear, he died in 2020. He was 83. But a hologram of Charlie is gonna headline the Fourth of July concert. Military bases in Kentucky, Fort Campbell. It's one of those block parties they're doing for the America 250 thing. And I guess they decided this would be awesome. I don't.

[Rod Ryan]

I mean, I don't know.

[Mo]

Make it awesome.

[Rod Ryan]

It all depends on how it looks.

[Mo]

Prove it to us that you know how to do this, and then I'm

[Rod Ryan]

not paying full freight. Okay. Think about like you want to talk about things that are expensive now. Concert tickets.

[Mo]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

I'm not paying a regular concert ticket to go see a hologram. It's just not happening. You cannot do that. And they're gonna try. That's what's gonna happen. Is there a live band? Is the whole thing a hologram? Or is there a live band? And then CD is gonna be hologrammed in to the regular musicians. We don't really know yet. But what they're going to try to do. And Kiss is gonna be the band that does it because they already. They're. They're saying they sold everything. Right? Okay. And they got these amazing holograms and they said they're gonna make the.

[Alex]

The.

[Rod Ryan]

The sphere looked like a popcorn fart.

[Mo]

They did.

[Rod Ryan]

They're gonna try. Gene's gonna try and charge what it would cost you to go see Kiss in this new version. So again, sounds like this is a one off show. It's just we have to put a stop to it now and just tell whoever the powers that be we're not paying regular freight.

We're wiped out of money. We got 100 bucks left. I did ask them if they wanted to do the suburb summer sizzler and it's looking good. I haven't gotten a definite yes yet. That's me asking for more money. What else did I ask for? I asked somebody else for money. I mean I'm always asking people for money with the golf tournament. Oh, Mr. Adler is in for risk it for the Biscuit. Nice. Yeah, I don't think that's until. That might be another month or two before we do like a week of risk it for the Biscuit. A chance to win $1,000. That's really fun. So he. He okay giving us some money for that at that's what I do. Like people say, well Rod, you work four hours a day. No, at 10:01 I get on the phone and I ask people for money.

[Mo]

Start asking for money.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I just call all the clients, all the, all the commercials here on this radio station. I just call them and ask them can I have money to Give to people or charities or something like that. Alex, how you doing? Your brackets?

[Alex]

Almost got a perfect.

[Rod Ryan]

Almost got a perfect br.

[Mo]

Women's br.

[Rod Ryan]

Women's bracket again.

[Alex]

All right. Always.

[Rod Ryan]

So this ending of the Duke game yesterday. Yeah, that was here in town.

[Mo]

No, it was in California, wasn't it?

[Rod Ryan]

That was. So that wasn't one of the games that was here? No. Okay. So Illinois won that shocking ending. Yeah, it was an elite eight game. The Duke Blue Devils blew a 19 point lead, still ahead. And then they cough up the ball and UConn makes a game winning three pointer with less than a second left on the clock. Christian Laettner did this the opposite way

[Alex]

to Kentucky, I believe.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes. It was 36 years ago. Duke won just like that against UConn when Christian Laettner hit the infamous buzzer beater. And I, I remember. I remember Christian Laitner, like hitting it the running. How he looked, everything. Yeah, it's 32 years. 36 years. Here's what happened in that game. 7270 Duke. 10 seconds to go. Get it in the ahead boozer. That ball deflected and stolen by Mullins Caravan. Two seconds. Mullins tosses it out. It's good. With point three, Yukon goes in front. Utterly impossible March means drama. Astounding. All Duke had to do was hold the ball there. Absolutely dead is the water to come back and win this one. 73 to 72. A March hero is born. Draylon Mullins hits the dagger. Pretty great call too.

[Alex]

Incredible.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, I mean it's. It's a pretty great call. Call to go with an unbelievable play. And you got to give it because that's live. It's not scripted. You don't know that's gonna happen. That was a great call.

[Alex]

If you heard. You heard the Duke version of it.

[Rod Ryan]

No, it's the, the.

[Alex]

They were mad. Ran off of the bench from Yukon.

[Rod Ryan]

Like that should have been a tactical foul. Oh, that should be a technical foul. They should pack him up.

[Alex]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

Yukon's 19 point comeback tied for the third largest in elite beat eight or later in NCAA tournament history. And he's right. All they had to do was hang on to the ball most laughing I

[Mo]

hate Duke like the Patriots.

[Rod Ryan]

People hate on Duke. Yeah, but they have a huge fan base. But yeah, they're super polarizing. They're like the Dallas Cowboys.

[Alex]

There's just a lot of people that didn't go to Duke and have no affiliation with Duke that walk around acting like they're better than you. Like they went to Duke even Though they didn't go to Duke. Then just rub it in your face. Face. If Duke wins anything in basketball.

[Rod Ryan]

I think college sports is so big now. I think that's more common than you think.

[Alex]

No, I don't. I don't disagree. But I think it's the worst because I think Duke and Notre Dame have the two biggest group of, like, people that didn't go to that school that talk the most crap.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay.

[Alex]

I think there's a lot of stuff, like in Texas and A and M has a lot of fans like that. Like, that's fine because you're, like, local. But I just think that, like, Duke people like a random dookie down here just doing that. You're like, what?

[Rod Ryan]

Doing? You are doing, man. If you ask 9 out of 10 people walking around Louisiana in an LSU jersey or LSU shirt, anything, 9 out of 10 did not go there.

[Alex]

True.

[Rod Ryan]

It's the state's basketball team. True.

[Alex]

You know, but Duke is not the state of North Carolina's basketball team.

[Rod Ryan]

Right.

[Alex]

Carolina is.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, I got you. Okay. Yeah.

[Alex]

I think I like North Carolina.

[Rod Ryan]

Final Four next weekend.

[Alex]

Yep. In Indianapolis. Mo's gonna go because it's her home hometown.

[Mo]

I almost went.

[Rod Ryan]

Really?

[Mo]

One of my teams would have been there. It would have been hard not to go. Like, if University of Houston was playing,

[Alex]

we had to go.

[Mo]

You had to go?

[Alex]

Yeah. You would go.

[Mo]

My husband definitely would have gone. I would have.

[Rod Ryan]

Did he go there? Yeah, he went to U of H. Yeah. So he's allowed.

[Mo]

He's allowed.

[Rod Ryan]

He's allowed to be a super.

[Alex]

I think I'm allowed because you're married

[Mo]

and I'm from Indiana.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Yeah, that makes sense. That's where the Final Four is at in Indiana. Oh, I forgot. You're what? I forgot your husband went to opening day and the law. Super fan.

[Alex]

Yeah, he.

[Rod Ryan]

I laugh. It's like. It was a horrible day. It was a horrible day. He went to opening day for the Astros. They lost, and then immediately back to back, went to the U of H game.

[Mo]

This isn't about us. This is about Duke and hating Duke. We hate Duke.

She was asking how she could become a sponsor the Rod Ryan show charity golf open. Looking at girls, Tiger woods music. You got Weezer, you got Britney Spears, you got all kinds of stuff on here.

[Mo]

Busy.

[Rod Ryan]

This blog page is very, very busy today. Were we all on the this three here in this room? Hang on. Give me fuel, give me fire. Give me that which I desire. Did some guy come on this show and nobody knew what he was talking about and he talked about gasoline and how there is a winter blend and a summer blend of gas. Did that happen in your time here?

[Mo]

No.

[Rod Ryan]

Okay. Did you know that there is a winter blend of gasoline and a summer blend of gasoline?

[Mo]

So it doesn't like freeze or something?

[Rod Ryan]

Something, I think.

[Mo]

Well, you're, you're, am I bringing it down to like my terms?

[Rod Ryan]

You're not too far off. I think it's just like maybe like more like butane or something so that it sparks better in, in the cold weather.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

So there. It's a blend. It's a cocktail of gasoline. Some guy came on the air. I'm like, bro, I don't know what you're talking about.

[Mo]

And we live in the oil and

[Rod Ryan]

gas capital of the world. It's like, was it Mala, I tried not to listen. If I didn't, if I stayed away from things that I don't know, I wouldn't have anything to talk about on the show. So

[Mo]

that's Very true.

[Rod Ryan]

We do have to kind of bring some things up.

[Mo]

Okay, what made you think of this?

[Rod Ryan]

Well, because gas prices are going crazy right now.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Alex]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

And I, I don't celebrate it. I don't freak out over it because there's so many people in the business here. I don't know what to do.

[Mo]

I know it's hard.

[Rod Ryan]

So gas prices, on average, they're up about a dollar per gas gallon in the last 30 days alone. Okay. Now, there is a lot of junk on social media right now saying that our gas is being diluted to stretch the supply. And people are saying, oh, yeah, I could tell my gas mileage is.

[Alex]

I was just tasting my gas yesterday. I thought I tasted off.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah, like it didn't taste.

[Alex]

I always take a sip before I put it in. Just make sure it's good.

[Rod Ryan]

A lot of these social media posts like this, they're fake news, but they're is potentially. And this is where I'm going to get to get to where I'm going. There's a little bit of truth. Last week, the EPA announced that they're planning to tweak the rules a little bit. Starting on May 1, more gas stations are going to be able to cut their gasoline with ethanol. It makes it cheaper. People are going to say that they're going to get less power out of their engines now and worse fuel economy in your engines. But it's being allowed. So it's, it's a temporary thing, which we always get nervous when things, when people tell us that things are temporary. From May 1 to May 20, they're going to be able to add more ethanol into our gas. It will stretch it.

[Mo]

Will they tell us?

[Rod Ryan]

They did. Right here. This is it.

[Mo]

Rod Ryan show. Yeah, this is your alert.

[Rod Ryan]

They told me and they asked if I could pass the word along to you guys.

[Mo]

I mean, like, does it. Do you. Would you avoid a gas station that was different doing that?

[Rod Ryan]

I. I don't know. I see what you're asking. Is it going to be right there, like in bold letters, like, hey, this is that alert. This is that new extra ethanol version. I don't know how it works.

[Mo]

Probably not, but.

[Rod Ryan]

But again, they're messing with these gas formulas all the time. And again, I learned on this show that there was a summer blend and a winter blend. And I said, what do you mean? I thought gas is gas. There's somebody making a cocktail bag back there, you know, like, I don't know, putting mixtures and things.

[Mo]

Well, apparently there is someone smarter than me. Hopefully.

[Rod Ryan]

So it's a way. It's gonna.

[Alex]

There's.

[Rod Ryan]

They said there's gonna be really no way of noticing. In newer cars, they say it's a little harsher on the environment. It creates a little bit more smog in hot weather. And it's a temporary thing from May 1st to May 20th. So again, I'm gonna get the car guy that's sending me an email. Well, actually, Rod, here's the deal. You know, in my. Okay, I can't even think of a cool muscle car in my Cobra. Is that a car?

[Alex]

Right?

[Hallmarkies Podcast Host]

Yes.

[Rod Ryan]

Less performance.

[Mo]

Got it.

[Rod Ryan]

Yes. So they're not.

[Mo]

Okay.

[Rod Ryan]

So are they diluting fuel at the pumps? Kind of. But when I think diluting the fuel,

[Mo]

the pump, putting water.

[Rod Ryan]

That's what I think.

[Alex]

And they.

[Rod Ryan]

They got busted doing that. I'm. Remember when I was a kid on the. On the Indian reservation?

[Mo]

Oh, really?

[Rod Ryan]

They got busted?

[Alex]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

People go buy cheap gas. Indian reservations, right? Native American reservations. I don't know. I never called it that in my life. Indian reservations, you can go get gas, you can get stuff cheap. And they got busted. Water down the ass.

[Mo]

Oops.

[Rod Ryan]

It was a big difference that. That you could tell in the. How your car operates for sure.

[Mo]

The Rod ryan show on 94. 5 the buzz.

[Rod Ryan]

94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. It's Everlast. And what it. You hear that man's voice Every Friday at 7:20. Everlast singer of House of Pain. Jump around. Same guy.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

Good morning, everybody. I hope your Monday is going well. Thank you for joining us for another week. You look great. Thank you, Michelle. Federal Credit Union for the hundred bucks for the last while we've done it. This is like. I think I asked them. They gave me 600 bucks to give to you guys. So another our final honey given away at the end of the show today. And it could be somebody that uploads a selfie in the next 10, 15 minutes. It's not the first person up. It's not the second person up. Rando, somebody's gonna win a hundred dollars just for uploading a selfie on our Facebook page. So please get to that. Make sure you get it done before we're done before we wrap up because Chili usually does that about. He goes early. 950. Sometimes he pulls a winner. US airports are now telling travelers don't get here too early because it's making. It's making it worse. People are showing up four hours early and they only need to be there

[Mo]

crap out of Us, they only need

[Rod Ryan]

to be there two hours early. Some airports are now telling people don't arrive too early. It's contributing to the longer lines. What do you want us to do?

[Mo]

We don't know what to do.

[Rod Ryan]

We don't know what to do.

[Mo]

We're just going to avoid you if you're not nice to us.

[Rod Ryan]

Alex says all those wait times are online. Before heading to the airport, you can check. You can check in with TSA and see what your time is. Not surprising. I call these enterprising people. There's people working in New York as a placeholding concierge service.

[Mo]

Oh, yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

In New York City, specifically. You can hire them. They'll stand in line for you. 25 an hour. Two hour minimum. It's kind of worth it.

[Mo]

100. But there's a Kind of worth it. There's a, like a speech playing over the loudspeaker at Bush telling you not to do that.

[Rod Ryan]

Oh, I'm sure.

[Alex]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

And then what? What's your play? I know what I would do. Nothing. Alex.

[Mo]

Oh, geez.

[Rod Ryan]

There's a guy standing in front of you. You've been in line for two hours, and then Chad shows up, hands the guy 50 bucks. Two hours, and then he takes that guy's spot. Nothing has really changed.

[Alex]

Gets out of line.

[Rod Ryan]

The. The placeholder gets out. Chad takes his spot.

[Alex]

No, I think that's fair game.

[Mo]

Okay, but what if Chad brings his family with children?

[Rod Ryan]

One guy. Do you have to have a placeholder for every person you're replacing in line?

[Mo]

What if it's one for four?

[Alex]

And I feel like if you're paying for it, it's like, if you can't, you get mad at the people that have the Disney fast passes, I think. But like, you're kind of like, they spend a million dollars.

[Rod Ryan]

Yeah.

[Alex]

Get the right to do that.

[Mo]

Huh?

[Rod Ryan]

It is amazing.

[Alex]

Like, okay, that. That should be fair game. Yeah. But, like, if that guy was holding your spot, I'm not okay with that. It's.

[Mo]

I understand.

[Alex]

Like, there's got to be a complete exchange of people.

[Mo]

Yeah.

[Rod Ryan]

All right, well, we're not out of the hell yet, but I guess the wait times are getting much more manageable. Hopefully people are going back to work here. It just sucked that they were singling us out at Bush Airport, like, being the worst. And I'm not. You shouldn't have to work if you're not getting paid. Thank you to everybody that did go into work just to keep the thing moving. But we had the highest call in rate I Think that's what made Bush so bad? I'm glad. Starting today, getting paid. Yes, that's good. Please, please, if that's your job, please go back to work. Thank you for your service. What are you giving away on Mo
