Mo
Good morning. President Trump spoke to reporters as he was leaving for Beijing yesterday and he was asked to what extent Americans financial situations were motivating him to reach a deal with Iran. And he said, quote, not even a little bit. He did elaborate that the only thing that matters in the negotiations is that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, adding that stock market performance while at an all time high, also secondary to his goals. The FDA commissioner resigned yesterday. He was on the job like maybe 14 months. Reports claim that him and Trump may be having a disagreement about flavored e cigarettes. Some reports are saying he didn't want to approve flavored vaping products but was pressured to do so. And the FDA ultimately authorized the products last week, marking the first time the agency had ever approved flavored e cigarettes. Which is interesting. You ever really awkward in a picture and don't know what to do with your hands, so you just like hold up the peace sign?
Rod Ryan
I do not do this. I do have a friend of mine. He chucks the deuce still in the pictures. Yeah, Kim Kardashian still does it.
Mo
Oh, I thought you were going to say me.
Rod Ryan
No. Do you chuck the peace on?
Mo
Sometimes I feel as though that's just like natural.
Rod Ryan
Peace. Peace, everybody.
Mo
I don't know why.
Rod Ryan
Peace in the Middle East.
Mo
Did you know that your fingerprints can be stolen? Never, never cross my mind.
Rod Ryan
I guess with A.I. yeah, sure.
Mo
That's what it is. It's some advanced AI. Criminals, bad guys. It's mostly for close up selfies. So if you're holding your fingers like close to your forehead, near your face, basically within a few feet. And even with all the tools and software at their disposal, identity thieves would have to need like multiple images. So this kind of has to be your thing. You have to be a peace signer all the time.
Rod Ryan
Kim Kardashian does it a lot.
Mo
You want to be extra careful. You could blur your fingertips before posting them online. Oh, God. We know she does do some enhancing before she posts online, so maybe she blurs her fingertips. Hello, Hillary Duff's donk.
Rod Ryan

Mo
So good. Sports illustrated revealed their 2026 swimsuit cover models yesterday. Hillary Duff, Tiffany Haddish, Alex Earle, and Nicole Williams. English who's a model. The covers hit Source tomorrow, but yesterday they were all doing press. Hillary said being asked to participate was flattering but daunting. She's like, I'm a mom of four. I'm not a spring chicken. She's like, I don't typically frolic around in a bathing suit, so it was a little scary. But she looks so good.
Rod Ryan
Alex, you approve? Yeah, it's good. And then speaking of Alex, Alex, Earl, Alex, Earl.
Mo
Fabulous, yes. Hillary Duff, though, definitely having a moment Right now. And then we saw some news from a Remy the Horizon concert on Monday. Pretty early on in the set, like the fourth song, a fan threw a phone on the stage. Why? Boom. Hit the singer in the head. They ended up cutting one song from the show, but he finished the concert holding his head. A couple times. After the show, he posted an update to assure fans he was okay. Suffered a mild concussion.

Is it that good? You're A person that knows a lot about zoos because you work there is the San Diego Zoo. Is it all, does it, does it deserve all the accolades that it gets? When I was there, I was 13 years old, which is many years ago.

We got to get you over here to see our zoo is badass. It's a top 10 zoo as well. Might be a top five. Might be a top five zoo.

And anyone that's listening outside of the Houston radio region just on iheart, I forget about it. And, and you've reminded me that the Internet can be a wonderful thing.

Mo
A rookie move.
Rod Ryan
Because I know the next one that comes is 20 off your total order. Yeah. And I don't order anymore. It's just overstock dot com. Right?
Mo

Rod Ryan
I think so.
Mo
Well, because they're going back into Container Store locations. You know what those are, right? We've got one of those in the Galleria where you buy, like, literally containers.
Rod Ryan
Do we still have the Container Store? Yeah, I haven't been there in a while. I used to love that place.
Mo
Company and their CEO said they've started clearing out 30% of their inventory to make way for Bed Bath beyond products.
Alex
They have plenty of containers to put all this stuff in.
Mo
There you go. I mean, they kind of seem very similar.
Rod Ryan
The thing that I still. I. I have. I buy online. I buy garbage bags that are the letter M. What's that mean? They made mature. If you needed a garbage can, you went to Bed Bath and Beyond, but you. But they made bags that were specifically for that can. And the other ones don't stop. The other ones don't fit as well.
Mo
Wow. They got you, Rod.
Rod Ryan
There are letters. There is a letter system. I can't be the only one that knows this. There is a letter system, and my can is an M. And you can
Mo
only buy them from Bed Bath and Beyond.
Rod Ryan
They just don't fit right. They're not deep enough. They're not. Yeah, they don't fit right. They just made their cans.
Mo
So that's hysterical to me.
Rod Ryan
You would have to be enslaved to their bags for the rest of your life.
Mo
And here you are.
Rod Ryan
Yep. That was.
Mo
You can go into the Container Store shortly. Happening here yet.
Rod Ryan
I took the whole hook in my mouth.
Mo
Sad day. Yesterday we got the alert that Brandon Clark of the Memphis Grizzlies had died. He died on Monday. He was only 29 and he was found dead in his LA residence. Drugs were also present. His death is being investigated. So that was number one.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Mo
Then we saw the news that Jason Collins, the NBA's first openly gay player, died after a battle with brain cancer.
Rod Ryan
Alex told Me. He's trending.
Mo
This morning, Jason was 47.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Mo
You know those come threes. And so you're looking out for your NBA players, Right?
Rod Ryan
But we're not going to the NBA for the third one.
Mo
No, I saw that nerd.
Rod Ryan
Oh.
Mo
Another guy from the Revenge of the Nerds family died.
Rod Ryan
Ogre.
Mo
Ogre. He had ongoing health issues. He was 71. Okay, that's three.
Rod Ryan
He makes. He makes some other movies too, but everyone knows him as Ogre.
Mo
Weird Al Yankovic is doing a stage musical. His quote. Ever since I was a middle aged man, I've always wanted to be part of the New York Theater Company.
Rod Ryan
He's funny.
Mo
He is funny. And he said the only thing about Broadway that's missing is some Weird Al. So go. Do you. No word yet on the premiere date. We do know it's called Dare to be Stupid, the Weird Al Musical, an original story co written by Al himself, featuring songs that span his career. Those are Houston's headlines.
Rod Ryan
Go ahead, Alex.
Alex
The Astros lost the Mariners last night 10 to 2. They've now lost four in a row. They're gonna play another game against the Mariners tonight. Lance McCullers is gonna be on the mountain for the Strobes going up against Seattle. Bryce Miller first pitches at 7:10. And you can listen to it on our sister Station Sports Talk 790. In the NBA playoffs last night, the spurs blew up the Timberwolves 126 to 97. Then in the Stanley cup playoffs, we had the Sabres getting by the Canadians 3 to 2 to even that series up. And then the Golden Knights top the Ducks 32 to take a three games to two lead in that series. In football news, we have the NFL schedule release tomorrow. So they'll be slowly trickling out some primetime games probably today and the beginning of tomorrow.
Rod Ryan
But don't believe anything on Alex's Twitter.
Alex
You maybe I have a source.
Rod Ryan
You don't know anything that he puts
Alex
out that works with the Texans. Text me today about international games. Yes, I did. I will show you after this.
Rod Ryan
Wait a minute. What was your comment?
Alex
I have somebody that is associated with the Texans.
Mo
Associated with the Texans?
Rod Ryan
Like they've watched them on tv.
Mo
Chili has a Texan's hat on.
Rod Ryan
Am I associated with the Texans?
Alex
No, but you know this person that is associated with the Texans.
Rod Ryan
So. So you got a leak?
Alex
I have sources. Maybe. I have a lot of leaks.
Mo
A lake.
Rod Ryan
He's taking him 10 years to get a source.
Alex
That's what's going on in sports.
Rod Ryan

Nothing over a 10 chance of rain. Sunny skies today. Warm high today of around 89. You said bed, Bath and Beyond is coming back. I. You're laughing at me about my letter. M Garbage bags.
Mo
Trash bags. Yes.
Rod Ryan
That I gotta go to them. Kelly's like mine takes J bags. Right. She's got a fancy. I have. Do they work? She's got one of those. I. My friend has this and I don't feel like I'm waving it the right way. If you wave your hand over the garbage, it's a stainless steel can. So it's not underneath. It's meant to be.
Mo
Sensor.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. And it just opens.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
It's like, where's the sensor? Stop here. Doesn't open so easy. She's got one of those. She said she's had it 10 years. She loves it. And it takes J bags.
Mo
There you go.
Rod Ryan
You're right. They do fit better.
Mo
My gosh.
Rod Ryan
That's why Bed Bath and Beyond can never go away. I need. I need M garbage bags. You got a text from a friend of yours, says I too use M bags.
Mo
They got you in a chokehold.
Rod Ryan
A couple people are telling me that those bags are from the company simple, human. And you can't order them in other places.
Mo
Don't tell us that.
Rod Ryan
Why am I again? I am today years old. I thought I had to go to Bed Bath and Beyond. I was panicking. I got a couple of garbage cans that only take specific bags from Bed, Bath and Beyond.
Mo
Now we can look into it.
Rod Ryan
This reminds me of the day. This is going back when Teresa was on the show. She told me that I could take. That was when they had those really big 20 off jobbers.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
You know you get them in the mail.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
20 off your entire order. She said, let me see if I get the name right. Oh my God. It's gonna. There was Bed, Bath and Beyond and there was the other one you could use. You could interchange their coupons.
Mo
Oh, really?
Rod Ryan
Yeah. What was the other store? Is it too too long ago for you?
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Bath and Body Works.
Mo
They sound alike.
Rod Ryan
No. Bed, Bath and Beyond. And Google somebody beyond coupon usage. It was a similar. Similar store to Bed, Bath and Beyond.
Mo
Similar home goods.
Rod Ryan
No gd. I had it ready to go before the break. That's it. I'm taking those Joe Rogan memory pills back. Rogan. I want my money back. I don't remember anything. I couldn't come up with Melissa Gilbert yesterday.
Alex
We got it.
Rod Ryan
Oh, you got it for me. What was the store that was similar to Bed, Bath and Beyond? And they too would put out a 20 off and they would honor your Bed, Bath and Beyond coupon? You know the store Big Lots?
Mo
The Container Store?
Rod Ryan
Big Lots.
Mo
Cobs. I'm showing fabrics.
Rod Ryan
I'm going home, sir.
Mo
La Table.
Rod Ryan
I'm going home. You've said every store. But was. It was an absolute carbon copy of Bed, Bath and Beyond. They just didn't make it.
Mo
That is so interesting.
Rod Ryan
And no one's emailing me.
Mo
It's not Kohl's.
Rod Ryan
Why are you leaving me hanging here?
Mo
This is what I get.
Rod Ryan
Googled Amazon, put on torn.
Mo
Walmart.
Rod Ryan
I'm all alone. I literally have no idea they sold sheets. Where would you go to buy sheets?
Mo
Sears? Google, Amazon?
Rod Ryan
Does my email not work?
Mo
No one knows what you're talking about.
Rod Ryan
Linen and Things.
Mo
I've never heard of that.
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Oh, God.
Mo
What is linen and things?
Alex
Did it go out of business, too?
Rod Ryan
Best store ever. They did.
Mo
You're lying.
Alex
Oh, no.
Rod Ryan
No way. They did. But they had the same. They had the exact same thing of the 20 off. And then Linen and things and Bed, Bath and Beyond you could use. Teresa told me. She goes, you know, you can take your linen and things 20 off and use that at Bed Bath. I'm like, you got to be kidding me right now. What now? I don't need you now. Now everybody's emailing me. You just left me out there.
Mo
I did not.
Rod Ryan
Lying naked on the floor. No one's helping me. Help. I thought you guys were here to help. Linens and things, to prop me up a little bit. No,
Mo
I can't.
Rod Ryan
I'm exhausted. I'm taking those alpha pills back, too. They're not working. All right, can we move on to
Alex
some other data right now?
Rod Ryan
None of that jellyfish. Nothing. But none of it's working. Hang in there. You could win $1,000. You really don't remember linens and things? It's gotta be. Well, it's. Teresa was on the show, so it's going back 15 years.
Mo
It says it went bankrupt. Back in 2008.
Rod Ryan
2008. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They were. There was a bunch of them. There was a bunch of them. Oh, that's just bad radio right there.
Mo
Stop.
Rod Ryan
That's just bad radio. What just happened?
Mo
Great, we figured it out together.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Was that entertaining for anybody?
Mo
Glad we could do it together.
Rod Ryan

Mo
Thank you for helping him up.
Rod Ryan
The store I couldn't think of. That was a real like, I'm talking about a head to head competitor for Bed Bath and Beyond. For years was linen and things and they had interchangeable coupons. And I was trying to tell the story, but the jellyfish pills weren't kicking in and I didn't know what the hell I was talking about.
Mo
But here we are.
Rod Ryan
And here we are.
Mo
It takes a village.
Rod Ryan
And now out of all of that, I know that I can get my m garbage bags on Amazon.

Alex
Tiffany Haddish is trending, everybody. That's in the Sports Illustrated substitute edition this year is kind of trending right now.
Rod Ryan
I got them all featured on the Looking at Girls blog page today.
Alex
Caitlin Clark's teammate, she's crushing it. And her and her spread. But yeah, Tiffany has is trending. It's her and Hillary Duff are the two most talked about people I would say today.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Because they're the biggest names. Not everybody knows who Alex Earl is.
Alex
Believe it or not, she would be third.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Alex
I saw a girl, Elena. Mar was. She's back in it.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Who is? I don't know who that was. Oh, I love Mar. Yeah, I do love her. I discovered her, and then you didn't remember her.
Mo
I discovered her brain is the jellyfish.
Alex
Okay.
Rod Ryan
She didn't even have a million followers on Instagram when I told people about her.
Mo
And here she is.
Rod Ryan
And then the Olympics hit, and then boom, she. She dusted me.
Alex
Brandon Clark is trending. We've been talking about this in headlines of the Memphis Grizzlies. Forward passed away at the age of 29. So people talk about that this morning. And then the Voice is trending. Big news at the Voice. They're adding two judges. They play Shelton, and I don't know who else is out.
Rod Ryan
We're still celebrating American Idol. Well, that.
Alex
We got to move on to the next singing thing.
Rod Ryan
Got to move on.
Alex
So Queen Latifah, obviously.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Alex
Excellent addition. And then Riley Green. That's one of Mo's favorites. Pat Green's son.
Mo
No, cousin.
Rod Ryan
Nephew. I don't think the Green Hornets. Nephew.
Mo
There you go.
Rod Ryan
That's it.
Alex
That's it. Those are gonna be the new judges on this next season of the Voice. That's attending a 95 the bus.
Rod Ryan
Somebody did send an email, and they said, you know what? Since Alex and everything that he says on the show, he goes, I have to google everything that guy says just to make sure. So he's in that 10. Plus yesterday's. Yesterday's Poll question. He's like, I got to google everything Alex says. Same.
Alex
And sometimes you're like, oh, same.
Rod Ryan
All right, guys, come on. Can we buckle down on this show maybe? This show is loose as a goose today, man. Get somebody. Get on track. Do you have what it takes to risk it for the Bizkit with Rod Ryan on 94. Five the buzz. All right, last Monday, Crystal won four. Honey. Eric won five. On Wednesday, Kyle won seven. Julie. We don't talk about Julie. We don't talk about Julie. Please.
Mo
Why'd you even bring her up?
Rod Ryan
We mentioned her. Because she won nothing. Mario won 600 on this week. Monday, Rachel won $400. Katie yesterday, $500. Who's next? Possibly you risk it for the biscuit. Your shot to win up to $1,000. We're playing today. We're playing tomorrow. I think that's it. You got two days left. Have you made your move yet? Every phone Line is zeroed out, meaning every phone line is manually put on busy. Every single person in the world. South Carolina pulling in. They're getting a busy signal right now.
Mo
That's right.
Rod Ryan
Chili will wait for this message for everyone on the delays to for it to catch up. He will go through. He will take the 10 callers and one of you will be on with us to win some cash. Risk it for the Biscuit. Coming up, our number, 713-212-5945. Only Houston sounds like this before 10am The Rod Ryan show on 94. 5 the buzz. There's a reason I trust my shopping list with Shipt. Shoppers with Shipt know that no order
Alex
is ordinary and come through adding care to my cart.
Rod Ryan
They double check labels. Wouldn't confuse mozzarella for Monterey Jack. And they know what's right. With Shipt, it's never just delivery. It shops same day. In the same way you would use code savings to become a Shipt member for half off. Only $49@shipt.com offer terms apply. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. Wild card Wednesday. That's our Instagram feature. But if want to see everything that's trending. Sports Illustrated, the one time a year that that magazine is still relevant with everything that we have at our disposal on the Internet right there. That swimsuit edition still gets headlines.
Mo
They do a really good job.
Rod Ryan
They do a good job of unveiling it. Now. They used to use unknowns, then they became supermodels and now they're kind of going with famous people. So I don't know. It still seems to be a big deal. You can go see all of that on the Looking at Girls blog page today. Sunny skies, nothing over a 10 chance of rain, high of 89. Can't handle this anxiety.
Mo
It's horrible.
Rod Ryan
The hockey game last night, I couldn't relax. The whole game up until the final second, it's like, oh, my God. Okay, we won. Oh, my God. Okay, we won. So there's that. Then what you guys did to me in that fresh out of bed, head to head this morning. I'm freaking out, okay? If I had any hair on my head, it'd be gone. Okay?
Mo
Linen and things.
Rod Ryan
This linen and this is why I look like this.
Mo
Push them over the edge.
Rod Ryan
This is why I look the way I do. And then we do something called Risk it for the Biscuit.
Mo
Send help.
Rod Ryan
And we're all freaking out over here. We are in our second big week. I had only got the okay for One week of Risk it for the Biscuit, and then I got the okay for Monday. Then we said we're going to play on Tuesday and we're playing today. I said we're going to play tomorrow, but that's enough. That's it. I can't handle any more of this. Chili has taken the calls. It doesn't matter what platform you're listening to or where you're listening. Okay, you've all caught up. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. Who is on this phone?
Mo
Hillary Maxheimer.
Rod Ryan
Let's go, Hillary. Let's go.
Mo
Oh, my gosh. I cannot believe it.
Rod Ryan
You're gonna play. You're gonna play Risk it for the Biscuit this morning, okay.
Mo
Oh, I love this game. Someone does.
Rod Ryan
Freaks me out a little bit. It freaks me out. Okay, I keep saying that. You have a chance to win up to $1,000. Yeah, I believe Katie did have that chance. Went up to $1,000 yesterday. She locked in at five. She wanted that cash. Okay, Hillary, I. I'm. I'm careful how I word this question. You got. You got.
Mo
I won't tell my secret.
Rod Ryan
No, no, no, no, no.
Mo
She knows.
Rod Ryan
But do you think. Do you think you got a game plan going into this?
Mo
Yes. Okay.
Rod Ryan
All right. Alex seems to be back in, too. I'm not.
Mo
You see him?
Rod Ryan
No, no, no, no, no. This is.
Alex
Hillary, this is not on me. This is not my doing at all.
Rod Ryan
You were given suggestions. No, no, no, no.
Alex
Mo. And you are in charge of all this. I am washing my hands of all of this.
Rod Ryan
Just when I thought you were back in, I had.
Alex
You tried to blame me for the death of Julie, and I will not take that.
Rod Ryan
Oh, there's one of her teeth still there. We didn't quite. We haven't cleaned up everything yet. Are you ready to risk it for the Biscuit? Are you ready, Hillary? Yes, I am. All right, looks like we're gonna have to have Mo. Like this fuse. Are you sure you're gonna hear the money? It's gonna pass before your ears. You can lock in anytime you want. You hear the explosion? Obviously, we just got the room cleaned up. Okay? We just. We just got the drippy bits of Julie off of the walls, the carpet, everything. Okay. Stanley Steamer said he never saw anything like it.
Mo
Stop it, Hillary.
Rod Ryan
Here we go. All right, we're going to light this fuse. Hillary, are you ready? Okay, I am. For the Biscuit. Extra innings. Oh, God. Here we go. Oh, room is so clean. $100. That's yours. That's your money. $100. 200 bucks. That's more than you had when you woke up this morning. $300. Oh, God. $400. That's a lot of money. She's not budging. She's not budging.
Mo
She's so good.
Rod Ryan
Wow. $500.
Mo
Oh, my gosh.
Rod Ryan
Okay, now it's $600. Stop. $600.
Mo
She didn't want to be average. She's like, I'm gonna just wait it out a little bit.
Rod Ryan
There is something about that 500 where funny, it makes it more real. I. I don't know.
Mo
Oh, my gosh.
Rod Ryan
Like, you guys don't think it's a lot of money until it hits five, and then all of a sudden, wait a minute. Hey, $600, Hillary.
Mo
Heck, yeah.
Rod Ryan
I'm excited.
Mo
I'm excited.
Rod Ryan
That's awesome. Yeah, that is awesome.
Mo
Oh, my gosh. My hands were shaking.
Rod Ryan
You were the most confident sounding player. You were there. You're like, hey, no big. Oh, 200 bucks. Who wants that? I'm here. I'm in it to win it. You want to hear what's left? Sure. You don't have to. Okay. Everyone has said, why do you guys do this to yourself? Why do you torture yourself?
Mo
Because I got what I wanted. I wanted to make 600.
Rod Ryan
A lot of money. Lucky seven. $800.
Mo
Are they gonna go for a. Made a good choice.
Rod Ryan
Okay. You did so. You only left.
Mo
You.
Rod Ryan
You only left 200 on the table. You lock in at 6. You could have gone to 8. You didn't know.
Mo
$600.
Rod Ryan
$600 is yours, ma'.
Mo
Am.
Rod Ryan
Hillary, you were really, really fun. I didn't know what you were doing. You sounded like you were gonna just sit back and wait.
Alex
Yeah, you were.
Mo
While I was shaking.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. You were probably the most stressful player that we've had. All right. Great job. Congratulations. That's money well earned. We're going to play tomorrow. Risk it for the Biscuit. How about one more day of it? All right, well, there's an email coming in. One more day. One more day of Risk it for the Biscuit. We play tomorrow at 7:20. Thank you to our friends over the Texas Hammer. We go. Look at this email. Your commute found its soundtrack. Rod Ryan, mornings 6 to 10 on 94. 5 the Buzz. 94. 5 the Buzz. Evanescence Afterlife. Risk it for the Biscuit. Hillary is a 600 winner. So as I said that we're playing tomorrow.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
So an email came in. Now, I don't know if someone's goofing with me, so I thought it Was. Was a goof. And then I looked and I emailed back. Here is how this went down. As I'm on the air, I said, okay, we're gonna play on Thursday, and then that's it. We're gonna close it out. We were only supposed to play one week. Texas Hammers kind of kept it going. An email from Jim Adler and Associates. It just says, finish off the week. Nice. Now, hang on. So I thought, somebody's goofing with me. It looks official and everything. I don't think trust anybody.
Mo
That's good.
Rod Ryan
And I said, does this mean we can play on Friday? And it says, you heard me. Send me the bill.
Mo
Okay.
Rod Ryan
All right, thank you. We're gonna. We're gonna play Friday.
Mo
Friday.
Rod Ryan
Okay, so two weeks. That's it, though. That's it.
Mo

Rod Ryan
That's. It's from Jim Adler and Associates. Finish out the week. The guy doesn't mix words.
Mo
Let's go.
Rod Ryan
Finish out the week. We're playing Risk it for the Biscuit period, tomorrow at 7:20, and then Friday at 8:20, and then that's it. I gotta send him the bill. The damage that you guys have done, he said he's gonna cover it. How great is that? All right, two weeks. Risk it for the Biscuit. Great job. Hillary. She was fun. She was fun. I'm listening for any peep out of you guys when you're playing this game. And she was very chatty. She was. And I'm like, what? What are you saying? What. What are you talking.
Mo
Is everything okay?
Rod Ryan
Why are you talking right now?
Mo
You didn't say stop, did you?
Rod Ryan
There was one other guy. We hadn't talked about it. There was one other player. I can't remember. Their phone cracked a little bit. I'm like, was that a stop? Was that a stop?
Mo
And we looked at each other.
Rod Ryan
Yes, yes.
Mo
I forget.
Rod Ryan
I can't remember which it was. Eric or Kyle, somebody. This was it this week.
Mo
I don't know.
Rod Ryan
I, like, I. I pooped a little bit. I'm like, don't mess with me.
Mo
We're already on edge.
Rod Ryan
This is money. I got my hand on the stop button. I'm ready to blow up. Blow out that fuse. Two more days of Risk it for the biscuits. So much fun. Thank you to the Texas Hammers. Rock and alternative for Houston, the Rod ryan Morning show.
Mo
Six to 10:00am, the Buzz.
Rod Ryan
All right, come on now, 94. Five the Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan Show. Thank you for joining us. That's Lincoln Park. It's Wild Card Wednesday. We're just coming up on the halfway point. Somehow this Haley Williams show snuck up on all of us here. In the morning it was announced and then it was kind of quiet with us. And then all of a sudden we found out we're giving away tickets before they go on sale Thursday, tomorrow at 10am so we'll have a pair of tickets for you for the Haley Williams show. We'll talk about it closer to around 8:20. I also want to. Are we even talking about Ditch Day? Chili, just a reminder to make sure that Ditch Day maybe bump it up on links and guests because I do want to talk about it. We have some things to discuss. Ditch Day, there's a date, there's a location, there's everything. Chili put it up on links and guests and then that's it. We really haven't talked too much about it. So I do want to talk about Ditch Day. I want to give away tickets again. A lot to do today on the show. There's Mo. What do you got for Houston's headlines?
Mo
Hey Rod. So President Trump spoke to reporters. He was leaving for Beijing yesterday and they asked him to what extent Americans financial situations were motivating him to reach a deal with Iran. He said, quote, not even a little bit. He did elaborate that the only thing that matters in the negotiations is that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, adding that stock market performance while at an all time high was also secondary to that goal. The FDA commissioner resigned yesterday. He's been on the job for like 14 months. Reports claim President Trump had already signed off a plan to fire him. They were not agreeing about flavored e cigarettes. Okay.
Rod Ryan
Cutting people, huh?
Mo
Some reports say the commissioner didn't want to approve flavored vaping products, but he was pressured to do so. So the FDA ultimately authorized those products last week, marking the very first time the agency ever approved flavored e cigarettes.
Rod Ryan
The FDA approved it like you. So you're sitting there vaping banana pancakes and that's approved this one certain brand.
Mo
I don't know what it is. If you do the peace sign or even like the bunny ears in a selfie, your fingerprints could be stolen.
Rod Ryan
You gotta have more than your average programs on your on your computer.
Mo
This is a new report though. Cell phones are able to to capture such high res images that it's possible your fingerprints could be extracted from them. It's very advanced AI but you know those bad guys are advanced sometimes.
Rod Ryan
Alex, when's the last time you chucked a peace sign in a picture?
Alex
Been a long time.
Mo
It's been a While I do it sometimes.
Rod Ryan
Used to call it Chuck and a deuce.
Alex
Right?
Mo
Really?
Rod Ryan
Truck and a deuce?
Alex
Not really.
Rod Ryan
So you still do the peace sign?
Mo
Every once in a while I see, like, I find myself maybe with the kids because they kind of do it.
Rod Ryan
Are your fingers always palm forward? Well, you could do, like, you know, chucking a deuce was like. You would see the backhand.
Mo
Okay, that's.
Rod Ryan
This is. I'm chucking you a deuce.
Mo
Yeah, I'm not that cool. I'm not that.
Rod Ryan
Okay. You're like, everybody, Happiness, peace, and love.
Mo
Yeah, don't do it. Hilary Duff. Let's talk about her Donk.
Rod Ryan
Oh, my God.
Mo
Sports illustrated revealed their 2026 swimsuit cover models yesterday. Hillary Duff, Tiffany Hadish, Alex Earl, and model Nicole Williams.
Rod Ryan
English Year of the Duff.
Mo
Seriously, though.
Rod Ryan
So back.
Mo
She said being asked to participate was flattering but very daunting. She's like, I'm a mama 4. I'm not a spring chicken. I don't typically frolic around in a bathing suit. She said it was a little scary, but she nailed it. She looks so good. Pictures are amazing.
Rod Ryan
I mean, I know her as Lizzie McGuire, you know, as a kid show. But you said she's a singer. She's out on tour.
Mo
Yeah. It's a lot of nostalgia.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
My. My friends are going to the shows, selling them out.
Rod Ryan
Would she sing as Hillary duff or Lizzie McGuire?
Mo
Hilary Duff.
Rod Ryan
Was it. Was there a blurred line between, like, Hannah Montana.
Mo
No, I understand what you're asking.
Rod Ryan
Hannah Montana went on tour.
Mo
Right as.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, Hannah Montana. And then, you know, obviously, Hillary Duff
Mo
is strictly Hilary Duff, and she has new Hillary Duff music.
Rod Ryan
That is right.
Mo
Hillary Duff.
Rod Ryan
Will she sing Lizzie McGuire songs?
Mo
I don't think so.
Rod Ryan
Did Lizzie McGuire sing?
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Mo
Yes. There were music.
Rod Ryan
My mind is Blown Song.
Mo
I can't Handle her in the show. Yes. Speaking of concerts, a fan threw a phone on stage at the Bring Me the Horizon concert this week. Pretty early on in the set, like the fourth song, boom, hit the singer right in the head.
Rod Ryan
Who got hit in the face like Bebe Rexha.
Alex
Didn't Morgan Wallen just, like, freak out on somebody?
Mo
This has been happening a lot. Beer cans.
Rod Ryan
But the phone. It's your phone.
Mo
Luke Bryan fell down when he got hit.
Rod Ryan
They're not gonna give you your phone back after you plug him in the head with it.
Mo
So after the show. Maybe after the show. The singer posted an update saying he was fine, but he suffered a mild concussion.
Rod Ryan
No, he didn't.
Mo
This is what he's saying, I don't know. Those are Houston Sun.
Rod Ryan
I mean, it doesn't make it right. Don't do it.
Mo
Don't do it. That's it.
Rod Ryan
I told you guys, like in the 70s, before I started going to concerts. Yeah, my uncle. I remember people would bring fireworks to concerts. What? Yes. Old fashioned fun like Zeppelin shows and stuff. Like back in the day, people brought fireworks to shows. And I'll tell you, and here's a little fun fact for you today, okay? Aerosmith put out a live album and I think it's called Live Bootleg. This is a live album from the 70s. You can hear M 80s. It's not the fireworks. It's not explosions from the band. You can hear explosions from fans that made it onto the live recording. You can hear them. I don't. It was a thing. I'm glad it's not anymore. Now we just don't throw cell phones.
Mo
But that was a thing out of me.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. All right, Alex, take it away.
Alex
The Astros lost to the Mariners yesterday, 10, 2. They've now lost four straight. They'll play another game against the Mariners tonight. Lance McCullers will be on the mountain for the Stroz. Going up against Seattle's Bryce Miller. First pitch is at 7:10. You can listen to it on our sister Station sports talk. 790. In the NBA playoffs, the spurs blew out the Timberwolves 126 to 97. And in the Stanley cup playoffs, the Sabres got by the Canadiens and the Golden Knights topped the Ducks. We got the NFL schedule release coming out tomorrow, so get ready for that.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Alex
Texans rumored to be playing the Jags.
Rod Ryan
Wait a minute.
Alex
London Rumors.
Rod Ryan
You got a Source?
Alex
It's not 100 confirmed, but they are rumored to be playing one of the Jaguars. Two London games. So that'd be Texans at Jags. I think it was rumored October 18th.
Rod Ryan
Jeez. Alex Scheffner.
Alex
Not confirmed, but that is the rumor. Do you have to play two London games?
Rod Ryan
This guy's an insider.
Mo
Thanks for the tea.
Alex
Just telling you, that's what's going on in sports.
Rod Ryan
Okay, well, thank you for that. I appreciate it. Thanks for mentioning my Sabers, tying it up.
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Now it's the best of three. I mean, you start from scratch pretty much. It's, you know, you tied it up two to two, it's the best of seven. But if it's two to two, you got three games.
Mo
The beard lives on.
Rod Ryan
You got. Oh, I hate it. The beard lives on. It's going. As soon as I'm out. Believe me, it's going rock and alternative for Houston.
Mo
The Rod ryan Morning Show.
Rod Ryan
6 to 10am The Buzz805. What do you say? Wild Car Winds Wednesday. It's our Instagram feature. All of that Sports Illustrated bikini business, if you're into that. I am.
Mo
I am.
Rod Ryan
If you're into that. A lot of people are into it. That's on the Looking at Girls blog page. Hillary Duff. Just awesome. That's it. Good for her, man. She's killing it right now. It's Hillary Duff's world. We're living in it. Haley. Haley Williams. Haley Duff. That's their sister, right? Hilary Duff and Hayley. Haley Williams is what I meant to say. This stuff's going back to Joe Rogan. I can't remember anything. The memory. The memory is shot.
Mo
Jellyfish.
Rod Ryan
Jellyfish jizz. Whatever. The stuff I'm taking, I didn't even know it's from memory. It's not working. Haley Williams is coming to town October 9th. Tickets go on sale tomorrow at 10am Ticketmaster.com have a pair of tickets for you coming up after the break. But I think it was a friend on friend off. Eli. He's like, dude, are you guys even talking about Ditch Day? The unofficial, official, unofficial, official song of Ditch Day this. And I don't know why. It just. I. Some things just happen, and you just got to let them happen on their own. The whole genesis of Ditch Day, we used to call it Senior Skip Day. Did you guys do that when you were in high school, did you have a. It was an unofficial, certainly not school sanctioned. And the school found out about it. Then they started threatening.
Mo
Like, you couldn't walk at graduation.
Alex
Yeah.
Mo
Yes.
Alex
Exemptions for finals for us.
Rod Ryan
What did they threaten you with finals?
Alex
Like, you could exempt certain finals if you had different grades. And they were like, you can't. If you walk out or skip.
Rod Ryan
If you took part in this because somebody loose lip sync ships and the teachers. It got to the vice president, vice principal. They knew when Senior Skip Day was.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
I got to the point where I got to Senior Skip Day. And then I think it became a thing that wasn't. Wasn't happening anymore. So it all came from a conversation that we had on the radio. It's like, what? Who's to stop us? It's like that meme I see. It's like every now and then I forget I'm an adult. I can just have a piece of chocolate cake if I want. You know?
Mo
Okay.
Rod Ryan
You ever see that? So we used to do this Thing called Senior Skip Day. Who's to say we can't skip out and go and day drink now? Oil and gas. Greg calls that a Tuesday.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
I don't live his life. I can't get out there. But I can for one day. One glorious day. And we got tired of explaining what Senior Skip Day was, so then we just. We morphed into Ditch Day. And now it's Ditch Day. Ditching work.
Mo
Yeah, I get it.
Rod Ryan
Even if you go in for a couple of hours, that's in play, okay? Because we are doing the show that day. But all this extracurricular stuff that we do afterwards, it's not happening. Because we're going to be at Cactus Cove starting at noon on Friday, May 29th. Guys, that's a couple. It's May. It's this month. It's in a couple of weeks.
Mo
It's crazy that we're.
Rod Ryan
That we're doing Ditch Day. Yes. Now we have the date, we have the location, and then. Chili, I need help on this, because unless you set it up, it says thank you to everybody over at bmp. Brand Management Professionals. That's who does all of our printing.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Did you lock in the. The T shirts for Ditch Day already? I think I might have spoken too soon. Anyways, they're on the hook now, so I. My question was. Hey, dude, good job. You. You locked in the T shirts. I did. I did my job. Rod. He's thanking them on the website before asking if they'll make us the T shirts. I mean. I mean, you know, that's. You got to be able to sweet talk to them. Them before. I know now. Yeah, let me hit that right now. Well, you're on.
Alex
She's listening.
Rod Ryan
You want to just ask her? Hey, Deb, just email me saying yes or no if you're in for the shirts. Why would we need shirts? Well, shirts are one of the things that come along with Ditch Day, Mo. You saw it. We get the shirts. There's. There's like a hundred of them. That's it. Once they're gone, they're gone. You got to get there early. And then people bring the Sharpie markers, and it's one of those silly things like signing a yearbook. Everybody signs T shirts and it's just one of the things that goes on. What are the other things that go on? I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I don't know if Johnny and the booth pimps have been called to spin tunes. Like, we invite the Reverend Butter. There's Eli, there's I mean, when was the last time we talked to Vonetta? Does she still like us? The Vonetta with the, with the airbrushing? She was there last year. She was there last year. Sometimes I tell her, I go, just leave the paints at home. Just come and party. Yeah, I think she came and hung out with us last time. I think I told her, I said, just come and party with us. Don't work. Every time I see her, she's working. I said, yeah, and party and drink with us. Which she doesn't drink. And then I always make her do a couple shots. Which leads me to my final note here on Ditch Day, what is the shot of the day going to be called? Is there anything that is an absolute stone cold front runner that anybody has like tucked away and said, okay, when Rod finally brings up Ditch Day, you gotta put under consideration this for the name of the shot. Has most said something funny here?
Mo
I haven't. It's been a year though. So give me a minute.
Rod Ryan
It's only taken a year. You haven't said nothing funny. Unless you want to call the shot Bad questions. Yeah, that's number one right there. That's bad question questions right there. We'll put it there. I'll take a round of bad questions. Please give me a tray of bad questions.
Mo
Wow.
Rod Ryan
I know that people said because it's. But you can't name it that because it's a real. I think when we were talking about the Blue October giveaway and we were getting people off to Cabo, I was talking about the Dirty Monkey.
Mo
Dirty Monkey, right.
Rod Ryan
Dirty Monkey is a real drink.
Mo
It's already a drink, so it's kind
Rod Ryan
of already a drink. So I'm. I don't mind putting it on the board, but it, it's certainly not going to be a front runner, but one of the things that we've done every year is we've come up with there's a, you know, Gunner is going to be the guy that'll come up with the actual drink, but we'll come up with a name of a shot. So I guess I've already got 1600 bed B, Beth and Beyond linen and things. Emails. If you want to start sending in your. Your shot name suggestions for Ditch Day, that is something that we will absolutely have locked in before the party starts. So here we are. We asked for. We asked Deb if she'll make us the T shirts on the air.
Mo
Hi, Deb.
Rod Ryan
I've invited a bunch of our friends to come and hang with us and I'M inviting each and every one of you. Even if you go in for a couple of hours and then, boom, you get there by noon Friday, May 29. Cactus Cove, 3333 West 11th Street. Technically, I think that's still the Heights, but we're gonna be partying that day, so that's all I know. What, who should we add? What do you want to do there? You know, we usually bring some tickets and then we play some games and, you know, but it's just, it's hanging out and drinking during the day. That's all it is. Ditch Day. Make plans to join us. Chili does have a skeletal information.

Alex
Yeah. Donald Gibb is trending. The Revenge of the Nerds Star Ogre from the movie. He passed away at the age of 71. People are talking about him this morning. And then Daryl Morey is training. He was the former Rockets GM. He was most recently the 76ers GM. That was until yesterday, where he was relieved of his duties. The 76ers have not advanced past the second round in his entire time, I believe over six years there. And that is what's trending on the buzz.
Rod Ryan
All right. A concert was announced. It wasn't announced on our show. And then I guess we don't know. We got our heads up our asses after 10 o' clock every day here.

Mo
It's cuz. It's like the special, right?
Rod Ryan
Yeah. And don't worry about the ingredients. That's secondary. I don't care what's in there. Who cares?
Mo
You just want the name of the featured shop.
Rod Ryan
For years, it's. It's always been something that reflects where we are in our lives. There was a. I know. Last year, if we had 50 names suggested, 40 of them were. Had mo in it. Because you were new.
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
You were shiny new. Everybody still liked you.
Mo
Those were the days.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. We didn't still like that. Just. Okay, I. I gave you guys time to think about it. I didn't want to do it on the spot, but now I'm putting you on the spot. What was the name of the shot last year?
Mo
I have no idea.
Alex
It was after you, so you have to know.
Mo
Why do I have to know.
Rod Ryan
It was your shot in your.
Mo
I've just been having so much fun this year that I don't. There's a lot of stuff in my brain.
Alex
Sounds like you don't care enough.
Mo
I have no idea. I even look through emails. I can't find it.
Rod Ryan
Really?
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Chili doesn't know.
Mo
He's talking on the phone.
Rod Ryan
It was. It was just another mo. Yeah. Your name was in the shot last year. Wait a minute. Maybe he's putting on his headphones. He knows. Wait a minute.
Mo
You know what's up?
Rod Ryan
Wait a minute. Mikey likes it. What was the name of the shot last year? One Mo something. Was that One Mo. Mo is in the title for sure. Because that was. Dominated. All the names. Damn. I think I need to take those. Joe Rogan, Jerry.
Mo
No, we don't recommend them.
Rod Ryan
They don't work. They don't work. I don't remember what I did yesterday. Her name. All right. Oh, gosh. Thank you, Chili. Thank you. I don't remember. Some suggestions, Mo. What do you got?
Mo
Yes.
Rod Ryan
What's on the big board? What's made it to the board?
Mo
The cassette.
Rod Ryan
The cassette shot. Okay.
Mo
That's how Rod mispronounces cassette.
Rod Ryan
I know. It's the only way to say it.
Mo
The plumber. I'm assuming that's a reference to my husband.
Rod Ryan
In honor of your husband.
Mo
I call him the plumber.
Rod Ryan
Sure.
Mo
Five N's.
Rod Ryan
More on that.
Mo
The drawing. It's referencing my speech impediment.
Rod Ryan
Oh. But I say cassette. Weird.
Mo
The nutsack. Thumbtack.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Alex
I like that.
Mo
I think to order that would be. Yes.
Rod Ryan
You don't have. I have that.
Alex
Right?
Rod Ryan
You don't have that. Do I have that over here? Did I ever send that to you? That was the.
Mo
The.
Alex
No.
Rod Ryan
You have it there. I ruined it. It's the There. I ruined it. Guys. It was. Was that. Oh, my God. It was so funny. It was the. The Red Hot Chili Pepper song right there. Yes.
Mo
They're making fun of it.
Rod Ryan
Completely ruined it. And it was a thumbtack nutsack lyric that caught everybody's ear. That's a good one.
Mo
It is a good one. The beard is on the potential shot list. I think that references you.
Rod Ryan
If the sabers are still in it, the beard will be going to ditch day today.
Alex
Or this year.
Mo
Yeah. And then also the pen. Sylvania, spelled with five N's, spelled P,
Rod Ryan
E, N, N, N, N, S, Y, L, V, A, N, I. AKA the Brody. Yeah. In honor of Brody.
Mo
Where has he been?
Rod Ryan
It was a Fresh out of bed, Head to head moment that I literally was laughing so hard. And Julie's the one that sent that in. She goes in honor of Brody, Pennsylvania with five N's.
Mo
It's really fun.
Rod Ryan
That was one of your questions for fresh out of bed, Head to head. Like how many N ends in Pennsylvania? And he said five.
Mo
It was really sweet.
Rod Ryan
That's where the other one came from. Five ends. I said, hold that, put a pin in it. We'll come back to that. The 5N shot. I. I know it's a funny moment on the show. It maybe doesn't translate as well to
Mo
a shot name, but we just got an email. Oh, the shot name was the Mogasm.
Rod Ryan
Oh, yeah.
Mo
Thank you. Rob Logan.
Rod Ryan
When you said we just got an email, I just assumed it was the radio wizard. Hey.
Mo
Just scared the crap out of me. He just walked in the studio.
Rod Ryan
This bit's going on a little long.
Mo
He got an email. Mogasm Chili remembered as well.
Rod Ryan
Playing any music this morning? Houston mornings don't play nice, but we do the Rod ryan show on 94. 5 the buzz. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan Show. Thank you, Sublime and Ensenada. Wild card Wednesday is officially our number two blog page today. Looking at Girls is number one. It's got the most views this morning. Sports Illustrated 10. Chance of rain. Sunny skies today. Highs of around 89. National Fruit Cocktail Day.
Alex
Finally.
Rod Ryan
That's Alex's least favorite cocktail.
Mo
Fruit cocktail.
Rod Ryan
Molotov and fruit. Yeah, in that. Those are the bottom two. Another situation happened. I remember, I don't remember where the first one happened. There had to be somebody that did this first. And I feel like it was a long time ago because I thought how sweet it would happen if somebody came in to Buff State College and got up there for the commencement speech and took care of all of us. It just happened. Students in North Carolina State University. It was Wilson College. I don't think it's huge. It's small. As a matter of fact, University Carolina State University's Wilson College of Textiles, the commencement speaker during their speech said, don't worry about your student loans. I'm taking care of everything. Every one of you ever heard of this before. I know. Look at your faces.
Mo
I die. Student loans are like the bane of my existence.
Rod Ryan
It's. It's a small school. It's still got to be a ton of money. So the gift is from a businessman and his wife and it's honor of his late father that went there and studied textiles. So they're covering the senior year loans for 176 undergraduates, 26 graduate students. He announced the gift and he it. And it truly was an absolute shock to every single person there. Whatever you have on the books right now, they're for your senior. They're taking care of it. Oh my God.
Mo
What a game changer.
Rod Ryan
That's got to be millions and millions of dollars too. I mean, I know it's only 176 and 20. Well, 176 plus 20. So 200. 200 students taking care of whatever they owe sick flex.
Mo
Yeah, that would be amazing. I would love to be able to do that. Oh, that'd be so cool. Just throw money.
Rod Ryan
Boom. I mean, I don't even know who my commencement speaker was. Johnny from the Goo Goo Dolls. I don't know who it was. But at that time he didn't have the money to cover that. He probably does now. Iris is doing pretty good for him. But what you can go if you want to see the speech and you see the shock in awe on everybody. It really is cool. Three things you must see. It's.
Mo
It's on there. Okay.
Rod Ryan
It's headlining that page today. Houston's rock. Houston's alternative all day and the Rod ryan Morning Show.
Mo
945 the buzz.
Rod Ryan
This. 945 the Buzz. Good morning. Rod Ryan Show. 853 this wild card Wednesday. Alternative income is going to be a thing that we do for a couple more weeks too. We're locked into that on the tens. We started at 9:10. It goes all the way to 5:10 with Teresa. You got a chance to win up. You got a chance to win a thousand dollars dollars in alternative income. You just got to kind of compete against the whole nation for that. But we, I. If we would have had a local, he would have let us know, right? Local winner.
Mo
I think so.
Rod Ryan
And we have had a winner in the 9 o' clock hour.
Mo
He's a busy guy. We should check.
Rod Ryan
All right, you check.
Mo
Okay.
Rod Ryan
I don't want to talk to that guy.
Mo
He likes me. I'm new.
Rod Ryan
He does like you. Yeah, he still does like you. All right, so alternative income. Well, she'll check in with the wizard to see if we had a local winner yet. Sunny skies today. Nothing over a 10% chance of rain. High of around 89. Let's go, Mo. One final time. Houston's headlines.
Mo
Thank you. President Trump spoke to reporters as he was leaving for Beijing yesterday. He they asked him to what extent Americans financial situations were motivating him to reach a deal with Iran. And he said, quote, not even a little bit. He elaborated that the only thing that matters in the negotiations is that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
Rod Ryan
I know you look at that and you're like, just give me one.
Mo
I write it out phonetically so I don't mess it up.
Rod Ryan
Her and George W. Bush really struggle. But the trick is no one will give you a hard time. If you say nuclear. Yes, You're. You're covered. Nuclear.
Mo
I'm trying.
Rod Ryan
If you say nuclear, you're in the clear. You got it.
Mo
Thank you for the support. Waymo voluntarily recalling up to 4,000 robo taxis because the automated driving system software could allow the cars to drive into flooded roads. Rod, I know that you really wanted to try these waymos out. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there was an unoccupied Waymo.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Mo
It entered some flooded road in San Antonio and Waymo was like, let's review the scenarios involving flooded roadways. So they identified an opportunity for improvement. They're working on a fix. This was all them voluntarily taking these robo taxis off the road just to make it better. I appreciate that.
Rod Ryan
A couple people have emailed, said that they had a wonderful experience in their Waymo. Cuz they heard me talking about it, saying that I was interested in it. You are. You know, I did do a drive recently that was in the coverage when I. When I went to go watch the Sabers on Friday night.
Mo
Oh, yeah.
Rod Ryan
I could have gotten there. That was in WH territory. Yeah. But London was coming, coming with us.
Mo
And you were like.
Rod Ryan
And I. And I wouldn't put her in there. Yeah, I'm sure it's fine.
Mo
I'm sure it's fine.
Rod Ryan
But I didn't want to be that guy that put my kid in a robo car.
Mo
So let Daddy try it first.
Rod Ryan
Alto it is.
Mo
Hey, get your coupons. Rod. Bed, Bath and Beyond is back. They filed for bankruptcy back in 2023, and they closed all their brick and mortar stores, like around that time. Well, the news says they're scheduled to return to 98 locations nationwide. Inside Container store locations.
Rod Ryan
So it's a store within a store?
Mo
Store. You know how Toys R Us is inside Macy's in some locations or Sephoras inside a store is inside Kohl's.
Rod Ryan
I don't know.
Mo
Right. Yeah, I'm guessing it's something like that. So Container stores are Texas based and their CEO said they started clearing out 30% of their inventory to make way for Bed, Bath and Beyond products. Kind of makes sense. They have a lot of similar homey things, right?
Rod Ryan
Yeah, sure, it makes sense.
Mo
Brandon Clark of the Memphis Grizzlies died on Monday. He was only 29. He was found dead at his LA residence where drugs were also present. His death is being investigated. We saw that. And then we saw the news that Jason Collins, the NBA's first openly gay player, died after a battle with brain cancer. Jason was 47. We know they come in threes. You're watching your NBA stars.
Rod Ryan
You're taking all three.
Mo
The revenge of the nerd family lost another member.
Rod Ryan
I think this is the one, Alex. This is. This is who passed away. Well, let's get those words. Nerd.
Mo
Nerds.
Rod Ryan
That's.
Mo
That's Ogre.
Rod Ryan
Ogre.
Alex
That's the one.
Rod Ryan
That's Ogre. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he passed away.
Mo
He had some ongoing health issues. Ogre was 71.
Rod Ryan
I think he also made a movie with Jean Claude Van Damme.
Mo
Oh, really?
Rod Ryan
Maybe he was like in his. Like one of his buddies in a movie or something. I remember them walking down the street together.
Mo
Rest in peace.
Rod Ryan
So, yeah, he did other movies, but yeah, he'll forever be Ogre, the Revenge
Mo
of the Nerds guy. Weird Al Yankovic just announced he has a stage musical in the works. It's called Dare to Be Stupid, the Weird Al Musical original story, co written by Al himself and featuring songs spanning his career. He is funny, he said. Ever since I was a middle aged man, I've always wanted to be part of the New York theater community.
Rod Ryan
Even as his comments are funny, he's always funny.
Mo
No word yet on the premiere date. I think I'll be skipping that one.
Rod Ryan
Did anybody see the movie they made? Daniel Radcliffe?
Alex
No.
Rod Ryan
You didn't want it. You didn't want to see it.
Alex
It wasn't on some weird stream.
Rod Ryan
You're right. It was on a crazy platform where
Mo
no one could watch it.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, they made him download it. But then the movie itself wasn't real. It was.
Mo
Oh, so like the stories weren't real.
Rod Ryan
It wasn't like a true biopic. It was like all these things happened that he was never asked to do. It was just in Weird Al fashion. Like he was involved in it somehow. But yet Daniel Radcliffe, Harry Potter, played. Played Weird Al in the movie.
Mo
Those are Houston's headlines.
Rod Ryan
None of us saw it. Hi.
Alex
Hello.
Rod Ryan
What you got over there?
Alex
The Astros lost the Mariners last last
Rod Ryan
night 10 to 2.
Alex
They've lost four in a row. They'll play another game against the Mariners tonight. Lance McCullers is going to be on the mound for the Strohs going up against Seattle's Bryce Miller. First pitch is at 7:10 and you can listen to it on our sister station Sports Talk 790. In the NBA playoffs last night, the spurs blew out the Timberwolves 126 to 97. They have a 32 lead in that series. Then in the Stanley cup playoffs, the Sabres got by the Canadiens 32 to tie that series up in two games a piece. And the Golden Knights top the Ducks to take a 32 lead in that series. The NFL schedule is going to be released tomorrow. We're going to play a game in London against the Jags. We already know that, but we will know more as the hours go on. That is what's going on in sports.
Rod Ryan
It's like I'm looking at Jay Glazer over here. NFL Insider.
Alex
When I find Bill's Insider stuff, I'm not going to share it.
Rod Ryan
She didn't believe Return of Chris Mortenson over here. God is reincarnated through you with all this insider information, Houston's Rocking Alternative, the
Mo
Rod Ryan Morning Show. 6 to 10am 945 the Buzz.
Rod Ryan

We played Risk it for the Biscuit today again at this is our second week now playing Risk it for the Biscuit. Your chance to win up to $1,000 with Mr. Adler, the Texas Hammer. Hillary was on today. She was really fun. She won $600. And then I got the email and from the office of Bill Adler and Associates, they said finish out the week, send me the bill that did you
Mo
feel an eye roll?
Rod Ryan
Finish, finish the week, do it. And I'm like, does this mean it's like I kind of felt like I was, you heard me, finish off the week, send me the bill and I'll cover what you got there. So thank you to our friends over the Texas Hammer. So we're going to play Risk it for the Biscuit tomorrow at 7:20, Friday at 8 or 7:20 and then done. I think you guys, I mean I read the email like I read it to you guys as I read it. I'm not asking for any more Fridays. It Friday is absolutely it on Risk it for the Biscuit. But really, really fun. Really fun and you guys have done a great job. Separate Portuguese. Oh, somebody said in honor of Julie. Julie was the one that got exploded. Little bits of Julie all over the Place. There was a couple of Julie shots that came in for Senior Skip Day.
Mo
Throw one out for Julie.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
Oh, that's good.
Rod Ryan
Julie. The Julie. I forgot what they said. The Julie explosion.
Mo
The Julie.
Rod Ryan
Julie's guts.
Mo
Oh, thank you for all that.
Rod Ryan
Kick it around to Julie's guts. Please scrape off a wall of the studio.
Mo
All right.
Rod Ryan
Just last Thursday, we finally got the place cleaned up. Alternative income. You got a chance to win that. I just heard. Ethel PI Day. There's no argument. Apple pie is the undisputed national favorite. Makes up over a quarter of all sales. Out of all the pies that are available. Number two is pumpkin pie. But you don't ever go for a pumpkin pie. Apple pies all year round, Right? Summer pumpkin pie. Is it. Is it specifically summer?
Mo
I don't know. I'm not a pie person.
Rod Ryan
Do you not? I was. Well, I was gonna ask because you're a baker. You don't do pies.
Mo
And I don't like sweets.
Alex
Chicken pot pie.
Rod Ryan
You bake all the time.
Mo
We have bread. I like carbs.
Rod Ryan
Okay.
Mo
I don't like sweets.
Rod Ryan
You don't ever make cookies for your kids?
Mo
No, they make them at home, but not with me.
Rod Ryan
All right. Apple pie. Pumpkin pie. Which is seasonal.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
You wouldn't just carve into a pumpkin pie right now, would you?
Mo
I mean, if someone put it in front of me. I wish.
Rod Ryan
It is odd. I don't know.
Mo
It sounds, like, pretty. Okay.
Rod Ryan
You know what would be badass today? Like, a big, plump, juicy turkey today for dinner. I won't make it, but, like.
Mo
Yeah, I have one in the freezer.
Rod Ryan
I have one a year.
Mo
That's it?
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
Really?
Rod Ryan
I mean, maybe a turkey breast or something.
Mo
White meat.
Rod Ryan
I got a turkey sandwich for lunch, but see, but you would never make a turkey with stuffing.
Mo
Really?
Rod Ryan
Never.
Mo
I even have the boxes of that crappy stuffing in my pantry.
Rod Ryan
Stove Top.
Mo
Sure do. It's horrible for you.
Rod Ryan
Oh, yeah. I wouldn't even look at the numbers on that.
Mo
So good. Let me bring you some.
Rod Ryan
No.
Mo
With a turkey.
Rod Ryan
I don't need it. I'm hanging over my belt now.
Mo
Pumpkin pie.
Rod Ryan
Pumpkin pie. Number two, pecan pie, which I think is super overrated.
Mo
You don't like it?
Rod Ryan
I just think it's. I think it's good. I just. I know people are searching out, like, the greatest pecan pie available. Pecan. Pecan pie. Cherry, lemon. Like the cherry. And for some reason, apple gets away with it. But that cherry, blueberry, all that pie filling stuff, that's a mess. It's a mess. It's just. It's just gelatinous candied fruit. It's just. It's kind of a mess. It's just. You might as well just eat the pie filling. I get it. You like the crust and all. I can do a lattice top. Oh, wow, Rod. I can do the lattice. Yeah. I had to make pies when I was at the restaurant, so I made pies all the time. It was just. I mean, it was pie filling, but we used the pre pie crusts and then I just cut them up to make the last. Okay, I get it now. Our very own flying saucer. Thank you, Alex. Here in Houston, Texas, the thing that everybody loses their mind. Their signature pie is the strawberry cream.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
And I did have it years ago. It was fantastic. Yeah, I'll give you that. But why aren't you guys going? They've even said they need help throughout the year. People go and stand in line for hours. There is no line right now. You can go to the flying saucer and go get a pie. Right?
Mo
Apple pie day. Let's go.
Rod Ryan
I don't know. Is. Are they open today? Are they open every day to go get pies?
Mo
Maybe they're closed on, like, Monday.
Rod Ryan
I bet you just. I bet you people in the neighborhood go, strawberry cream is number one pecan. And then their chocolate cream. I think I had the strawberry one years ago. And yeah, you guys know what you're talking about. It was delicious. It was delicious. But shout out to the pie places. They probably need your help throughout the year.
Mo
Go today.
Rod Ryan
They flat out said they needed help.
Mo
Apple pie day.
Rod Ryan
They just need to create their own flying saucer day or something or, you know, with the release of these UFO files.
Mo
Send us the press release so we can talk about it.
Rod Ryan
All right. Pies. Go get a pie. Alternative income.
Mo
What's that mean?

Alex

Rod Ryan
Please, please let us know today's aol.
Alex
You're gonna see how well you remember lyrics and TV theme songs. We did regular songs yesterday, songs today. Okay, so if you had heard they were four men living all together, yet they were all alone, would you know what show that Was about
Mo
one day when the lady fellow.
Alex
Very good.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Brady Bunch.
Alex
Very good.
Rod Ryan
That's like super old.
Mo
I watch old stuff.
Alex
So some of them are old, some of her newer. And your job is to try and find out if you can get them. All right.
Rod Ryan
But they just don't do TV theme songs like they used to. You could say that about everything. Oh, back in my day. Bluey is a real good one. Louie is a single lyrics to it though.
Alex
Dad, mom, Bingo and Bluey.
Rod Ryan
You can sing that. You stick along to that one? Sure.
Alex
Yeah. But go check it out. See if you can name all these TV theme songs by just looking at the lyrics at the world famous Rod Ryan show page@thebuzz.com if warnings came with a warning label, this show would be
Rod Ryan
tagged and come in the plastic wrapper. The Rod ryan show on 94. 5 the buzz. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning Rod Ryan show. Sup? Sup, Mo?
Mo
Sup, Rod?
Rod Ryan
What's up, Chili? Sup, Alex?
Alex
What's up?
Rod Ryan
Good to see you guys. Smack dab in the middle of the week on this wild card Wednesday. Most sitting on some seven dust theory of a dead man ticket. She's going to give you those on mow the show before we get out of here. So you still got a great opportunity to get some. Get in on some free booty. I read this this morning Venmo is changing its default to private so that your embarrassing purchases won't accidentally go on on your public feed.
Mo
That's good news.
Rod Ryan
I never understood this. I didn't get it.
Mo
Which part?
Rod Ryan
Why do we have to share everything that we do? Why do you. What is the flex of your name and sending money to someone else and it's like, oh, hey to my girlies. Had a great lunch. Here you go. Had a great time.
Alex
And like, hey, I'm sending mo money because mo about donuts. So I'll say donut. And then it just, they for some reason were like, we should just put this on a feed like Facebook.
Rod Ryan
That was weird to me.
Alex
You can make it where it doesn't do that. You could just click a button initially.
Rod Ryan
Right. But like now the default.
Alex
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
Will be private and you will have to say, I want the world to see me sending some money to my girlies because we had a little, you know, rose all day. I owed you for, you know, whatever we had.
Mo
That makes it a little hard to stock, which is what I use it for.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, I just. Number one, I didn't know you could turn it off when I, when I'm forced to pay somebody. Venmo. I'm like, why is this out there for everybody to see? Who cares that I need.
Alex
We just don't put anything about what it was on there. You just put like, like a random emoji.
Rod Ryan
Right. Why does it need to be seen?
Alex
No, it doesn't.
Rod Ryan
Right now that I know that it's good. I just, I, I, I couldn't wrap my head around another thing that people just wanted to look at me. Sending money to somebody.
Mo
Did you have any friends that used it? Like, I knew a girl that used it with her husband and you could see like back and forth between the two of them.
Rod Ryan
What were they paying each other for?
Mo
Subway. Like, very wild.
Rod Ryan
They were not married.
Mo
No, they were married.
Rod Ryan
My wife's not married couple. And money was being exchanged. They wanted people to see it.
Mo
I don't know if they knew.
Rod Ryan
I don't think people do know.
Alex
I think people were like, you, Rod. Were they like, oh, let me pay you back for half of lunch.
Rod Ryan
Yes.
Alex
And they didn't realize that the whole
Rod Ryan
world, most people don't go look through it.
Alex
But you can. Like, if I saw my friends ever doing that, I'd be way to pay rent on time.
Mo
I know.
Rod Ryan
That's what I.
Alex
Because you can comment on it. The, the option to comment on the posts are actually the wildest part.
Rod Ryan
I think it's our quest to be seen.
Alex
Yeah, that's exactly what it is.
Rod Ryan
It's got, it's, it plays into that and Venmo knows it. Something's going on that now it will be not public first. And then you're going to want to be right narcissistic and let everybody. You're going to want it. You're going to have to put the setting on. So now anybody that you've told, you've told Venmo that you want the world.
Alex
I'd like everyone to see.
Rod Ryan
To see. It's okay. I, that was one I just couldn't understand. Couldn't wrap my head around it. It's okay. I don't mind paying people. Venmo don't want to tell the world, but there's got to be some embarrassing things on there too. We want more fun. We want more time during the day to have fun. We could all use a little extra time every day to knock out tasks that we've been putting off. But to do something that we really want to do. This new survey came out. Shouldn't be surprised to anyone that we want. We want more time to have fun. 48 of us say that in our lives. We number one, we need more fun. Most people believe that having fun is important, especially with others, leads to better relationships. But people can't find the time in their day to have fun. The average person says they want 17 extra hours per week. I'll do the math for you. It's about two and a half hours a day. People feel they need two and a half hours a day of fun. Give it to me that they're not having. I think most people could make time to do things if they really, really wanted to. I'm not talking about scrolling on your phone. I'm not talking about seeing who's venmoing somebody money. That's not fun. Now what kind of fun are we looking?
Mo
Yeah, tell us about your kind of fun.
Rod Ryan
Well, it's not me, it. The number one thing that people said is they wish they could watch more television.
Mo
Oh, okay.
Rod Ryan
I kind of feel that way.
Mo
So sometimes, yeah, I feel left out every once in a while.
Rod Ryan
But here's me, I'm saying, oh, I don't watch anything. I don't have time to watch anything. I'm making time to watch these three hour hockey games every other day.
Mo
You're probably doing other stuff during it, aren't you? Little biting.
Rod Ryan
It's hard to do. Hockey is hard to take your eyes off the screen.
Mo
Focus.
Rod Ryan
You get 15 minute in between periods. You get intermission. Yeah, you can kind of go run. It's like okay, I'm going to go run and take my shower now. I'm going to go run and put a load of laundry in or something like that. What kind of fun are we looking for? America say they want watch tv. Next is see family or friends. Next is dining out followed by outdoor activities. So hobbies is on there playing games. I do try to play games in the house. You're not there yet with your kids. Do you play games with your kids? Are they gamers?
Mo
They like to try.
Rod Ryan
Now you can't say that. I didn't mean to say are they gamers?
Mo
Yeah, I know what you meant.
Rod Ryan
That's automatically. You think that they're video games.
Mo
Yeah, but they try to do shooting chutes and ladders every once in a while.
Rod Ryan
Candy land.
Mo
Shark attack.
Rod Ryan
What's shark attack?
Mo
Where you have to pull out a fish and then it could the shark comes up and bites your hand.
Rod Ryan
I had that when I was a kid.
Mo
They love that one that came out
Rod Ryan
when Jaws was in theaters.
Mo
So funny to watch them.
Rod Ryan
Is it like it's a 3D piece of shark.
Mo
Huge shark and all those. And then you put the fish inside and you have to fish and grab one.
Rod Ryan
Yeah.
Mo
Pop it out. And if the wrong one pops out, the shark comes up and bites your hand.
Rod Ryan
Is there a rubber band mechanism with the mouth?
Mo
It might be a little more advanced than that these days.
Rod Ryan
Like ours. Okay. I'm going back to the 70s.
Mo
Okay. It's all right. I don't have to wind it up.
Rod Ryan
Yeah, the shark. You would go in there. This was when Jaws came out. Yeah. Yeah. Sharks were like, so hot.
Mo
We love sharks when I was a kid. And dinos.
Rod Ryan
Yeah. Playing games is cool. It was in my six picks. I played the Disney 10 Questions to Figure out the Disney character.
Mo
Okay.
Rod Ryan
It's hard, man.
Mo
Was London good at it?
Rod Ryan
She beat me.
Mo
Yeah.
Rod Ryan
So, yeah, pretty good. You can find time. I think you can find time. I don't know where you're gonna find time. Is undefeated. Everyone, every one of us gets 24 hours every day. Can you find 17 extra hours a week to devote to having fun? I don't know. I can't.
Mo
Seems like a lot.
Rod Ryan
I can't.
Alex
Probably not.
Rod Ryan
What are you watching now, Alex, like, series.
Alex
I just finished the season one of Rooster and I'm watching your friends and neighbors, the second season. John Ham.
Rod Ryan
Okay. Jon Hamm was just on. What is the podcast
Alex
with the.
Rod Ryan
The chicks from Saturday Night Live. Amy Poehler, whatever it's called.
Alex
Hang.
Rod Ryan
I think whatever Amy Poehler's podcast is. And she asked him, what are you watching? You know what he says?
Alex
What?
Rod Ryan
Shorzy. He said, it's the best thing on TV shows.
Alex
He's funny.
Rod Ryan
Sh. Is really funny. But it's super Canadian and super hockey centric. And I don't know what Jon Hamm's connection is because they did use him for the Olympic promo. When he walked into the.
Alex
The locker room.
Rod Ryan
The locker room and talked to the hockey players, you know, like, hey, we're going to get the gold and blah, blah, blah. So I don't know what his association is with hockey, but he was used for that promo. But he said, shores, he's the best thing he's watching right now. I don't know that everybody would like that. It's weird.
Alex
It's really good. I think people would definitely like it, but I think a lot of people would not.
Rod Ryan
It's really good. It's really, really funny. The guy went out to L. A like, you're too Canadian. No one's going to get this. So he goes, he's like, okay, I'll star in it. I'll write everything. I'll do all the character. I'll do everything. And he did it. And it's brilliant. It's brilliantly written, but nobody's really seeing it, but Jon Hamm said it's the best thing, so. All right, you're not alone. If you want more hours per day to have fun, try to carve out some time. Have some fun, guys. You're not just awake. You're Rod Ryan show awake now. Go do some damage out there. 94. 5 the buzz. 94. 5 the buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan show. You're right, Alex. That there. I ruined it. I had it over here because I had an edited version of that Red Hot Chili Pepper song. It was the. There. I ruined it, guys. And there was a lot of cussing in it, but I had a version of it. I can't find it anywhere but that because of what we played. Must have been two weeks ago. It wasn't last week. A name came in for. I'm gonna let Mo tell you a name came in for a shot Suggestion.
Mo
Stop. Oh, the nutsack thumbtack.
Rod Ryan
The nutsack thumbtack is on the list, which, officially, if you dug deep in those early albums, that might actually be a Red Hot Chili Pepper lyric that Anthony Kiedis wrote. Probably thumbtack nutsack. Maybe he would have wrote that for sure. Good morning, everybody. We were talking a lot today about formerly known as Senior Skip Day. Now Ditch day. It's the 29th. It's Friday, May 29th. We're gonna be at Cactus Cove. And Mo summed it up. She's like, yeah, not a lot of information online. It's just a save the date, save the day, and then we'll be adding things throughout the day as it comes up.
Mo
Yes, like.
Rod Ryan
Like the T shirts that we asked for live on the radio. If our Deb and everybody over at BMP would mind making us some shirts. She did send an email.
Mo
She responded.
Rod Ryan
She's like, we're in. We'll make it happen.
Mo
Were there any bad words in her response?
Rod Ryan
No, she was cool about it.
Mo
Nice. That's unreal.
Rod Ryan
