Tiits, Rick and Bubba, Rick and Bubba.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
We talk a lot about parenting on the program, and
you know, we are all dads, and there's so many
kids and lots of kids. We got them just graduated
from college to uh, you know, all the way down
to Helmsey's how old now? Four months?

Speaker 4 (00:33):
Four months?

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Four months? And how about this? And literally everything in between.
So we we've seen every aspect of parenting that there
could possibly be, and still more to come as we
move forward. But there's one thing that I thought I
established very clearly with my children, and that is that
we don't tattle on dad and and and and you know,

(00:57):
and look, I mean I thought this was this was
established in my you know, it's like this is something
we covered when they were smaller. With the boys that
are still living at home, I mean I covered I
thought so clear, and and yet it's still happening. Uh
And and it's one with one particular kid. I've got
one that has gotten old enough. Now what Greg has
always talked about word here and I've had a talk.

(01:18):
I said, now, look, you gonna need me. Yeah, okay,
it works both ways to get you out of trouble. Mama,
don't you be throwing me on the bus here It
is okay. You know we stopped for ice cream. That's ooperloopa.
And and if you had the if it's on the
best of cd uh several years back. I don't know
how far back it goes. But you remember one time
my kids, unfortunately when when when some of them were

(01:38):
younger and small, we were in a restaurant and some
little people came in and they shouted out in the
restaurant dead, look it's oopen loopas and totally offended the people.
And and and they didn't know. They thought they had
seen the Charlie and the chocolate fact, they thought ooper
looopas really existed. And I said, guys, don't ever say
don't ever there are no omas. Never please refer to

(02:02):
anyone as an ouperl loopa. And then that became our code.
I says, as a matter of fact, going forward, anything,
I don't want you to say I was a ooper
loopa you know, like they come in the house.

Speaker 5 (02:11):
Hey, you on the way home, dance ooppa?

Speaker 3 (02:14):
You know, and don't you know if they did, Dad
got his ice cream or something. And you know, so
I and I thought the oopa loopa in my home
was clearly established, clearly. And I got thrown on the
bus the other day, by by by the I got
one in the house. He's the worst. Got your tattler,
I got a tattler, Yeah, tattling on me. Look, don't

(02:34):
tattle on daddy. That's a standard room. Hey, one day
you're gonna need me. Oh yeah, Ok, I'm going through
with all of them, yold you tattle on me.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
To Does he know what he's doing and he's doing it?
I mean, or does he just kind of here's what
he honest, here's what I don't know. Here's here's what
he said.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Mama told me that if I see anything going on
in this house that shouldn't be going on, she wants
to know about it. I said, no, so you Mama's
you Mama's little police officer. And he said, I'm just
doing what Mama told me to do. I said, that
didn't include me. You don't tell me, brother. You know, look,
your brothers, you know when your sister's hold them now,

(03:10):
But they need to be Mom needs to know what's
going on with them as we do to properly parent.
I'm beyond parenting. There's nothing they may do for me now,
you know what I mean. There's nothing's gonna be accomplished.
Will you telling on me? He said, you're gonna bring drama.
Don't get me in trouble. You get me in trouble,
I'm gonna get you in trouble. I got a bunch
on you. I can say I can see things you're doing.

(03:31):
Next time you want a little something, Mama says, you're
not supposed to eat. I remember that, well, I try.
I brought it like, drove me crazy. Didn't mean to
bomba candiv or. Is that what you want me to say.
He's just sitting there, he said, I'm just doing mom
to I said, look unpah lupa on throwing daddy under
the bus and it was it was not a good scene.
And he's you know, he really he is. I have

(03:52):
men who hold you accountable. This kid, his accountability is
I hate to say it a little no, I mean
it's like he is. I mean he is like he
has this this crazy concept that we're supposed to live
the way we we say. He said, you're telling me
about my language and stuff that of your language needs work.

Speaker 5 (04:15):
Who are you You're late talking about the scope, isn't it?

Speaker 3 (04:18):
Yeah? Well? And and I told us which one it
was Rick, what's taz? And of all people?

Speaker 5 (04:25):
Yeah, he's gonna need you though, he's.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Well, we were we were shooting and this is not
this this incident, I'll get to it. We were shooting
down to farm, getting ready for dear season. And I
had told his older brother the next one up, big Love,
who's turning fourteen today. Yeah, and and and so we
were shooting, and I told him don't get too close
to the scope. It's going to face yea. And I

(04:48):
said three fingers. You shouldn't be closeed. As soon as
you see it in the scope, stop and hold it
firm on your shoulder, go switching your face.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
So he shoots this, go pits in the face. And
I said, I just told you what to say. What
are you some kind of and and yeah? And I
said dumb and then and then I followed it with an.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
Animal don't finish it, Greg, Yeah, I said are you?

Speaker 3 (05:10):
And I turned into my dad because when we were
growing up, and I told him later, after I had
to pray with the kids, I told him, after your
task made us. But yeah, so later I told him later,
I said, don't be so upset about that word. I said,
most of my life from your granddad, I thought that
was my name, you know. And my dad would say,
what are you some kind of dumb? And he would

(05:31):
say it, and then you would answer, no, sir, well
you had luck, you are I guess you are. And
then I tried to throw my curb. He says, what
are you dumb? And I said yes.

Speaker 5 (05:37):
He says, no, you're not. And that's what makes me married.
So there's no answer to it. You can't win.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
So uh so I said, I still use this. So
I said, I told you, I told you, I told you.
So I go berserk, and so he's got big non
in his head and so we get down later and
I finally calmed down. I said, look, the Bible clearly
says discipline your children, but don't exasperate. We're not to
exasperate or you, I said, And what you just saw
there is that exasperating you. And and I was wrong

(06:03):
for that, and we need to pray about how I
handled that. That that was not good parenting. And so
I think I've got it covered well. Little you know
Mama's policeman. Dad, you also need to pray about saying domo.
And I said, you're right. I will pray about that too.
You're right, son, And he said it, he wrote, and Dad,
you need to pray about saying that too. I see

(06:25):
it gets like a little notebook, like he's an investigator something.
What are you writing down? I wanta tell Mama about
we go? And I'm like, no, Mama don't even know
what I said. We've happened that the farm stays there.
Now now she's gonna see the big nod on Big
Love's head and we're gonna have to explain it. But
I'd like to be the one who explains it. I
don't need you explaining it. Yeah, are you going to
tell her that you said that?

Speaker 5 (06:44):
No, I'm not absolutely, because then she'll get out the
book of blame.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
It's over, Yeah, don't you. There ain't no need for that.
What good is that Mamma told me? Tell anything I
see that, I don't think she'll be happy. And uh,
And I said, well, you know it's you're ruining our relationship.

Speaker 5 (06:58):
You've a lot of stress on it.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah, now that I can't. I thought, when the guys
get off, I thought, this is you know you? I said, then,
ain't nobody ever going to invite you to the Onune
camp when you're man? Now, you'll be a w B.
You probably a wife. Bringer tell her, I'm telling her,
wife's what I would do here. You can't be that guy,
I said, don't be that guy. Mama says that's what
I should do. Well, your mama is right most of
the time, and she's a great woman. But I'm telling
you which one of us is a man?

Speaker 5 (07:21):
Heard me?

Speaker 3 (07:22):
Let's be real you okay, which one are you gonna be?
One day? You're gonna be a You're gonna be a mama,
or you gonna be a daddy. I'm gonna be a daddy.
Whe then you should learn from me.

Speaker 6 (07:34):
We were out to eat, and uh, you know, I
I thought once I'd like to go out to eat
without some story to bring back.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
Yes, but Rick, you know it's just not gonna be now.
We were drawn to these situations. We were out dining.

Speaker 6 (07:49):
Of course, I was just having a you know, a
big old steak and enjoying myself, and uh, all of
a sudden, I felt something stinging me, like on the back,
like and I, you know, let's start going, and you
know what, it's really hurting, you know, while pain. You know,
I'm trying to get and Betty's eating and the kids
are calm down. So I don't want to cause a commotion,

(08:10):
but I mean, I've got to have relief. Sure, normally
the thing to do is pull.

Speaker 5 (08:13):
Your shirt off. Yeah, but you didn't pull your shirt off.

Speaker 6 (08:16):
My I mean, I'm in the middle of this restaurant.
So I said, Betty, I gotta go to the can.

Speaker 5 (08:20):
I'll be right back.

Speaker 6 (08:22):
So I am hustling into the can, go right in,
and I see a you know, a stall that's open.
I didn't want to be right in the middle of
the floor because I figured somebody might come in. You know,
there's your story. Half I'm Bobba naked in the bathroom.
So I noticed somebody else was in there, but so
I the It just so happened that the that the

(08:44):
handy stall door was open, so I could see that
nobody was in the big stall. I figured I ain't
gonna be in there long. I'm you know, and I
mean the whole time, I'm in pain.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
Something. I mean, something's on me.

Speaker 6 (08:56):
So I go in there, pull the door closed, shirt
comes off, and you know, I'm slapping on my back
trying to you know, go what because man, it was
hurting right And I looked in my shirt. I thought
it's something, you know, in thee.

Speaker 5 (09:10):
And anyway it was gone. Must have been a you know, a.

Speaker 6 (09:13):
Sweat bee or a something got some kind of bug
or something. So I thought, wow, man, And I'm still
kind of nervous about it. I think, man, say a
spy now or something, you know, and.

Speaker 5 (09:24):
It's making me nervous. I'm looking in my shirt.

Speaker 6 (09:26):
As I'm standing in the stall, and I hear a
voice coming from the stall is about two stalls over,
and it's it's.

Speaker 5 (09:36):
A woman talking to a small child.

Speaker 6 (09:41):
So I'm standing there with my shirt in my hand,
and you don't really what I think right out of
the gate. I think, I think that crazy lady has
coming to me in's bathroom. She must have a little
boy she's trying to help out. That's the only thing
I could figure up.

Speaker 7 (10:00):
You know.

Speaker 6 (10:00):
When I'm shaking my shirt and as I start to
put my shirt back on. This terrible fear hits me
as my photographic memory flashes back.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
Hey, where were the urinals up here?

Speaker 8 (10:13):
No?

Speaker 6 (10:14):
So I am in the stall. No, there is conversation
going on. I crack the door open and look, and
I am really really hoping to see.

Speaker 9 (10:30):
A jurnal, even one, no journal. I shut the door
and I go, Okay, I have a decision to make here. Now,
you're not a shirtlings still, are you?

Speaker 5 (10:42):
No, I've got my shirt back on, I'm ready to go,
and uh.

Speaker 6 (10:46):
You know, for just an instant, I had thought, Hey,
I'll just use the bathroom while I'm in here, But
now that doesn't seem to be very important now.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
No, So I have a decision to make. Do I
bide my time or do I make a brain for it.

Speaker 6 (11:01):
That's a tough decision, and as you know, there's probably
I figure if somebody else came in, not too many
women are wearing these type of shoes.

Speaker 5 (11:10):
No, those aren't in.

Speaker 6 (11:13):
Theresion my mind, iman, And I think if I make
a dash out now, I could run right into another
lady coming through the door.

Speaker 5 (11:30):
And Rick, if you don't think that would make the newspaper.

Speaker 4 (11:32):
I know and uh so.

Speaker 6 (11:35):
I debated in my mind what seems like for a
long time, but I know it was only mere seconds
that that basic animal, protein driven instinct came into into play.

Speaker 5 (11:48):
Run for it, make a dash.

Speaker 6 (11:51):
So I swing open that door, make a dash as
quick as I can, go out the lady's door, a
two step sideways, push open the men's door, and act
like I'm coming.

Speaker 5 (12:05):
Out of it. Did you make it?

Speaker 4 (12:07):
And I was safe?

Speaker 5 (12:09):
Like your body coming man and I I woman installs
you went out.

Speaker 6 (12:16):
I quickly went back to the table. Betty said, he
you are right, and I said, no, I don't think so.
I think I'm losing it. I mean, but Rick, I
was thin stung. You know, I wasn't paying it is
where you're going?

Speaker 5 (12:29):
Well, I thought I was. That explained some of the
email I got over the weekend. I believe it. Maybe
this shouldn't have done, but you have y'all not done that.

Speaker 6 (12:42):
It is one of the worst feelings in the world
to know you're you're hung there.

You and I have had those moments, both of us
where you know, you might have had a little incent
with the car and you know, and and and it's
not fun. I mean I've talked about it, I've had
it's happened and and uh so this was particularly ironic
because you were returning it for the for the last day.
Yeah right, yeah, and and and the very last day.
Yeah and yeah, this was you were turning your car

(20:59):
in to this yes, this company, thank you, Greg. Yeah,
turn our car in and then I run over a
dog on the way in a big one yeah, and
just pretty much ripped the front bumper off of it.

Speaker 6 (21:11):
You told me that you thought that it was at
least as big as a great day.

Speaker 4 (21:16):
Well, in my mind it was.

Speaker 5 (21:18):
I know it was big. Give me the size, just
too big. What you considered big, I mean when I
mean big as a shet, it had to be pretty big.
If you did you see the.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
Car, but it looked like you know, and if you're
watching a NASCAR then you know how a car will
be taken into the garage and they remove all the
bumpers and they put it back out their point like that. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (21:36):
Now you told me too, you had to stop and like, yeah,
things cracking and sparking and all that.

Speaker 5 (21:42):
Yeah, it was a good one, was a dog. I
just had one more day rick. It was one day.

Speaker 6 (21:49):
It was hours two hours really, just about six hours away,
six hours away.

Speaker 9 (21:55):
Turn if you just got to work. And I don't
know what the dog was doing. Why was he in
the road? I have no idea, no idea, just standing there?

Speaker 5 (22:02):
Damn.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
Was he looking at you or looking somewhere else?

Speaker 5 (22:05):
He had his head down like there was something in
the road. Road. But it was too late, and it
was on one of those roads where you can go
like fifty five sixty miles an hour.

Speaker 4 (22:13):
So you were doing about seventy.

Speaker 5 (22:15):
No, I was doing about fifty five or sixty five.

Speaker 11 (22:17):
No, I was not.

Speaker 5 (22:18):
I enough speed tickets. Well, I won't speed anymore. They
broke me to that.

Speaker 6 (22:22):
Yeah, that's evidence for you not speaking.

Speaker 9 (22:27):
Yeah, once I paid that, I said, forget that. If
you have cruise control, you should never be caught speed.
The dog probably wish you would have been speaking, would Yeah? Well, anyway,
here one minute go on the negger man. I look
up and I have nowhere to go. I can either
go in the oncoming traffic off the road, or the dog. Well,
I mean, I hate that, but you got to take
the dog.

Speaker 5 (22:45):
He ain't either.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
And you've taught your kids, say something.

Speaker 5 (22:47):
I hated it.

Speaker 3 (22:49):
I had my daughter wrecked one time because you said, well,
I was supposed to gather away the amulets. I said,
how you don't drive in a ditch finding out the
place for them to get around you.

Speaker 5 (22:56):
But anyway, I felt bad about it, right, I know,
but then I thought trying out here so bump were gone. Yeah,
it's not that bad. They just got to replace the bull,
was it.

Speaker 6 (23:07):
It's not like damage to the when it was dragging.
Was there a lot of sparks because I know it
was at night, so you know it was plastic. It
was the plastic park.

Speaker 3 (23:15):
Just noise.

Speaker 5 (23:15):
Yeah, hot sparks.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
You said it's not bad, but when I pulled up,
I could see your engine from from like walking by.

Speaker 10 (23:23):
Right.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
They just got to put a bump. Matter of fact,
I checked you. Here's what you gotta understand, Rick, they
got to put a bump from it. And this is
in the first time they've had to do that since
I've been driving the cars.

Speaker 5 (23:34):
You've hit two deer and a dog, right, yeah with them? Right?

Speaker 3 (23:37):
What is it with you and animals? Do you have
something on the front of your cars?

Speaker 6 (23:39):
And how many speeding tickets did you have? That you
had to be broken, not me.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
I just paid one big one. That's why that's a
waste of money.

Speaker 4 (23:48):
Had to pay one bought one. I've paid and that
that broke you.

Speaker 5 (23:51):
But the latest one that was so high, I thought, boy,
they're high.

Speaker 6 (23:54):
Now, well, I know, I was just trying to go
back to what you'd said earlier. Maybe I met a
long time you said you'd had so many of them broke. No,
it's just the cost of having one or two. I
bet I ain't had three in my whole life.

Speaker 9 (24:07):
But the cost of them, I thought, that's because, like
I said, Yester, at least you can light the money
on fire, little heat off.

Speaker 5 (24:13):
Right about two bills, it's about it.

Speaker 3 (24:16):
I even had one and a half. I haven't had
one in a year. So you're saying the fine itself
got to the point it broke. Yeah, I thought, you
know what, why is such a hurry? You got a
where to be? There's no reason I'm not watched that
be in a hurry, right, But no way to missus dog,
no one, no way nowhere.

Speaker 5 (24:33):
I would have because I don't.

Speaker 3 (24:34):
I didn't want to.

Speaker 6 (24:34):
But but it was the last day you had the
car turn an hour and you and you ripped the
bumper off the front of.

Speaker 5 (24:40):
Yeah, but it's not that bad.

Speaker 4 (24:41):
How did they take it when you run it by?

Speaker 3 (24:43):
The fine?

Speaker 9 (24:44):
They were they'll get they'll get with me later. What
I'm saying is the guy you turned it in was fine.
Oh yeah, he was fine.

Speaker 6 (24:51):
So do you have insurance that covers that?

Speaker 5 (24:53):
How does that work?

Speaker 2 (24:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (24:55):
Yes, because I've used it.

Speaker 6 (24:59):
Do you have a lot you know the A level
that you have to meet before it kicks into deductible.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
Yeah, this one probably won't be I'll handle this one. Yeah,
this'll be ot Yeah.

Speaker 6 (25:10):
I mean, you just gonna handle it yourself. Leave insurance
out of it.

Speaker 5 (25:13):
I saw it how they get us. I saw how
they get us.

Speaker 9 (25:16):
They jack us up, and then we're scared to death
to use it. Insurance is the biggest scam they ever
came out with. Right, we all pay for it, but
we don't want to use it. Right because if you
use it, God forbid, you use it the product you're buying.
That makes them mad and they want to jack the
price up on the right because you know what you did.
You used it, don't matter. You've been paying for fifty
years and never had a claim that don't matter. Get

(25:37):
one claim, jack you up right. I found that out
in my house eighteen years, never had a claim. Jerk
me around when my copper got stolen. Basically, we're paying,
we pay you re insurances. How many people for stolen
by the way, that's the thing that but.

Speaker 5 (25:55):
Insurance, and think about it's a bit. We get the greatest.

Speaker 9 (25:58):
Hey, you get a huge deductible so I can have
a lower eight, which means I never get to use
it because my deduct was gigantic, right, So I was
of thought of insurance.

Speaker 5 (26:05):
Awesome.

Speaker 9 (26:07):
It's the best thing, the best ski PONSEI is whatever
best scheme I ever heard of, And I got friends
and insurance business.

Speaker 5 (26:15):
Good for you. Insurance is the biggest. They might as
well have a gun and a mask and be robbing you.
It's no different. It's unbelievable. I got it. I'm gonna
pay thousands of years old. God, don't use it.

Speaker 9 (26:33):
Don't use what you're paying for, You what you're paying for.
If you wreck, they'll fix it. But don't do that
because if you do, they're gonna charge you more.

Speaker 5 (26:38):
God forbid.

Speaker 9 (26:40):
This weekend for those of us that do like to hunt,
and I know there's women that like to hunt. We
covered that yesterday, but I'm locked that we talk about
don't about that much. But one of the things, and
you can relate this to anything, it's rivalry weeks. So
some of you may be going to ball games this weekend,
you know.

Speaker 5 (26:57):
What I mean? Yes, still a little sore, Yeah, from
siding her in. Ye get more.

Speaker 9 (27:01):
Well, this is the time with so you can really
fill this into any situation on this particular story. The
key to this, would you not agree, fellow men who
are married, is you have to keep Mama happy at
home for you to be able to go out smoothly
on Friday. Smoothly, you know, because I'll be walking out of.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
This theater and you know, and Big Love's going with us,
and Chre's gonna.

Speaker 9 (27:22):
Be tired and headed back home, and I'm gonna be giddy,
and I'll do the typical acting I had at this point.
You know, I wish I wouldn't even go in, you
know how you do that. I wish I wouldn't even going,
but the guys would be mad. It'll really hurt Lynn's
feelings of you know, when Chris Hammond the Braves going,
he said, he wanted to go in and get your
friends and all season and you know, but heck, I
ain't the third lowest e r A in the history
of the major leagues.

Speaker 5 (27:42):
But I'm not gonna focus on that. We're hanging out it.

Speaker 9 (27:45):
By the way, Yeah, by the way, there's talk of
Ryan green Wood going on his first hunting trip if
you know the document, and to kind of see what
it's talk going to beg him anymore. No, I mean,
he's really what He's got to play it right at home.

Speaker 6 (27:56):
Well, you know, every year we bring somebody new into it.
I mean, don Juan took us honey, don't want to.

Speaker 5 (28:04):
Year j T and D in the same year last year,
but he was early and D was late.

Speaker 9 (28:08):
So uh so, bottom line to her, in your wife's mind,
because she has it correct, it's a weekend, a bunch
of guys are going to hang out and get away
from their wife and kids.

Speaker 5 (28:17):
That that really is the bottom line, Betty asked me,
and I had to admit it really is. Guys play
an army. You remember how you played army when you
were in the woods, and it's us versus the deer.

Speaker 9 (28:28):
And they don't really, they don't have any weapons, but
they but they have theirney. See if they're cunning, and
if you don't find one, they beat you. They won
the war and elements are on their side. But we're
not gonna talk so anyway.

Speaker 5 (28:40):
So I'm in the mode of big did you do
your hands like that? No, I'm sorry, yeah, because that'd
behind it.

Speaker 9 (28:46):
I'm in the mode of, don't make a mistake at home, Okay,
don't make a mistake this week so, and you know,
I'm a veteran, I'm not some rookie.

Speaker 5 (28:54):
You don't make some stupid rookie mistake. And I made
one yesterday. It was so stupid. What did you do?

Speaker 9 (28:59):
Well, first of all, I start going to hang out
with my brother and you at the outdoor place yesterday,
knowing I'm going this weekend.

Speaker 5 (29:09):
Okay, I just have to go by and look at it.

Speaker 9 (29:11):
Me too, And they had like videos going in there
of big deer and you just like, you know, Mark's

of skirty passed.

Speaker 5 (37:21):
That's major. Yeah, I've heard it. I got to look
into you heard.

Speaker 6 (37:28):
Tongue reduction, church records, all kinds of reductions out there. Okay,
I have that side of my tongue my whole life.
It's it looks like a war zone through there. I
know's there's just battle scar.

Speaker 5 (37:43):
Why do you keep sticking your tongue out?

Speaker 3 (37:44):
We don't want to. It feels better.

Speaker 5 (37:45):
It feels better out.

Speaker 9 (37:47):
You ever seen them whalers hit that hit that lard,
that big stick, go right outside your tongue with that.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
A little version right now. If it hurt like, if
it hurts you even talk to chew on it. I
can't imagine what it be like. I everybody cut half
of it off here.

Speaker 6 (38:04):
But once it heeled, you wouldn't have to uh you know,
wouldn't be over there in the way anymore.

Speaker 5 (38:10):
Once it he would you be happy.

Speaker 6 (38:11):
But boy, I bet you know things in your mouth
don't heal real easy.

Speaker 5 (38:16):
Anyway, Well, let me tell you what it would be,
just the word. I'm gon'll have to look into it.

Speaker 6 (38:19):
I'm gonna look it at it.

Speaker 5 (38:21):
How about it would be how about the worst?

Speaker 3 (38:23):
How about the worst case? How about this? I googled it,
you get some information for you yesterday and a picture
of Anthony Winter came up.

Speaker 5 (38:33):
How about he's there now?

Speaker 3 (38:36):
How about how about worst case scenario?

Speaker 5 (38:38):
Though?

Speaker 3 (38:38):
Okay, because one thing to consider now is say we
all do these quirky things. We sleep, You go have
the tongue reduction surgery, and you think, well, that does it.
Then you wake up it's just chewed of again, and
you realize you're actually corralling it over there into danger.
You got one of the you're doing this in the night,
moving it. Oh that's worst case scenario.

Speaker 5 (38:57):
So can your tongue like fall to one side.

Speaker 9 (39:00):
Well, you can just we went to school with the guy.
He couldn't even hardly talk. He remember that, I ain't
gonna call his name.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
Case Frank, he said, really really, yeah, Greg, I remember
because because neighborhood Billy Mark Robertson made up made fun
of him every day he did. Yeah, I remember it.

Speaker 5 (39:16):
I mean he couldn't keep in his mouth. Yeah, but
his was hanging out of his mouth. It was, it was,
it was. It made bubbles look like nothing.

Speaker 3 (39:22):
Yeah, Bubba Bubba's problem is with yeah, yeah, I just
got a lot of Larry's. Larry's just hanging hung out
of his mouth, weird like a lizard.

Speaker 9 (39:34):
Really yeah, and it was just right and didn't have
nothing on him what and Ater didn't have anything?

Speaker 5 (39:42):
Greg, You know what? It was a decent defensive end
though he was kept buying his tongue. Can you touch
your your.

Speaker 3 (39:54):
Whenever they would overshift with the tight end. The problem is, though,
whenever they would overshift with the tight end, I can
understand what what Yeah.

Speaker 6 (40:03):
Greg, tell me got called for off sides one time
this tongue.

Speaker 5 (40:10):
Rick tongue in the neutral zone Bubba Rita's stores, I
can hear you do what's the league team doing promotion?
I know it's almost like doesn't come promotion. Somebody said,
forget the pond toon boat, just spend the money on
your tongue.

Speaker 3 (40:34):
It's a little big town written song about big tongues.

Speaker 5 (40:37):
They need to, they need to. Baba's big job. You sleep,
your big tig. You think when you were chewing on
and your sleep you'd wake you up? Yeah, Bubba, I
mean barking dog wakes me up?

Speaker 3 (40:56):
You sleeping like you like it?

Speaker 5 (40:58):
What's wrong with you?

Speaker 12 (40:59):
Her?

Speaker 5 (41:03):
I'm about the inside of my chal anything horrible?

Speaker 2 (41:06):
Oh it's awful.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
Look I've done it. I've cheered mine up for it
just doesn't happen. It's often this situation is a good one.

Speaker 5 (41:13):
Yeah, so you're attacked it like shark.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
What what if you got right now?

Speaker 5 (41:20):
You got lemon and squeezed it right on it?

Speaker 6 (41:23):
You know, I don't think there's an open wound where
it hurts. It's just puffed up.

Speaker 5 (41:27):
And every time you and every time you talk, or
your teeth rubbing on that spot like that.

Speaker 3 (41:33):
Well you try to keep you know, it's a strange.
It's a strange human concept. If something hurts really bad,
you try to keep it from happening. So you start
trying to move it away from your start.

Speaker 8 (41:42):
Doing the list, do this right here, look and you
just talk like that. Yeah, yeah, I want you just
talk like Papa out the side of you now. Now
I'm scared them about my tongue and talked about them.
We've talked about it so much as going to mind swelling.

Speaker 6 (41:59):
I feel it we're gonna have to call Dudney and
find out what you gotta do's coming in there.

Speaker 5 (42:04):
I don't think I can wait that long find.

Speaker 9 (42:05):
Out right, he's not to I mean he could tell
you where to go. Yes, right, Well, you're looking at
stories to read.

Speaker 5 (42:14):
You can't read them.

Speaker 3 (42:14):
You know who you need to go talk to?

Speaker 5 (42:16):
I just I can't talk either, so I'm bashing time.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
You know what you need to do. You need to
go talk to commercial fishermen because they're always filleting me.
Yeah right, well, I mean they may know exactly what
to do. HM, careful because I don't want What I
don't want you to do is overdo it. You know
how sometimes people have either enhancements or reductions and they
overdo it a little bit.

Speaker 5 (42:38):
Yeah, you're not having back problems with it right, Do
you think this at this point? Do you think this?

Speaker 3 (42:46):
You think this wine is hurting your knees? That's tongue related.
Now we'll be back age six six. We be big
as our number. More of the Rick and Bubba show
continues right after this.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
They ricking bubba, ricking bubba.

Speaker 3 (43:09):
Bubba. You know, you and I have tried so hard
to speak for the large community and people of weight.
We're often overlooked, even we're discriminated against. And you know
where one of the next groups is being deemed to
be you know a you know, just an actual absolute
pull on the system. We're fat, which makes us unhealthy,

(43:30):
and we must be stopped, and we must tax you know,
foods that we enjoy, and the fat tax is it's
it's all around that we have one of our fellow
men of weight saying that he was mortified, Uh, he
was booted off a flight from Chicago to Denver, he
alleges by Southwest Airlines and he says this happened because

(43:54):
he is fat. Now, Southwest Airlines, if you remember, and
it was one of our favorite Dicky Nadmar calls, was
at one time was going to make fat people pay
for an additional seat because of the room they would need.
And they were even saying that if you were bigger,
more wider than the seat arm part, they'd measure you.

Speaker 6 (44:17):
And going to have a test seat like they had
for carry on bag.

Speaker 3 (44:20):
Well, remember they dropped it. And because they caught some
flack on this, I'm still trying to figure out why
this guy said that his weight had something to do
with it. I'm reading the story.

Speaker 6 (44:31):
Wow, you've seen that weight.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
Yeah, he said he felt like a criminal.

Speaker 6 (44:34):
Yeah, Matthew Harper is his name, said he felt like
a criminal when Southwest reportedly demanded he get off the plane.
He says, he's thirty four years old. He's never in
his life.

Speaker 5 (44:45):
Been humiliated like this.

Speaker 3 (44:47):
Well, he's had a good life.

Speaker 6 (44:48):
Then, he says, I mean when I got back on
the plane, only thing I could do was put my
head down. Harper, who weighs in at three forty, said
he was taken off the plane in front of other
pass passengers waiting to board and was told the flight
was overbooked. The Texas resident then told the station who
was doing this interview. The official asked whether he was

(45:08):
aware of the airliner's customer of size policy, so.

Speaker 5 (45:12):
There it is.

Speaker 3 (45:12):
They may still have it, which.

Speaker 6 (45:14):
Encourages overweight passengers to purchase an additional seat.

Speaker 3 (45:18):
Prior to traveling, encourages them to.

Speaker 6 (45:20):
Harper said he was aware of the policy and that
even though the flight was overbooked, there was still an
unoccupied seat between him and his brother. He was eventually
let back on the plane and the flight was delayed
about thirty minutes. Harper said he followed a complaint with
Southwest and was offered one hundred dollars, but turned it
down and plans to hire an attorney.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
All Right, well, his case, I hope, isn't that. Hey,
I can be as big as I want to and
people just have to tolerate me because I got to
tell you something.

Speaker 5 (45:51):
Guys.

Speaker 3 (45:52):
Look, we're kind of roton to a level, but I've
been boxed in by big Papa, our bit o, our
big Mama walk walk, and I got to tell you something.

Speaker 5 (46:04):
You've got to fly across the country.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
I really don't think Southwest Airlines is really unreasonable to
ask that if you look like that, if you're a
certain size, you know you got to have an additional seat.
But he's saying there was an additional seat so he
didn't know why they made such a big scene about it.

Speaker 6 (46:20):
Oh, he's biggest boy, he is. He's wide, Yep, yep,
head he you know he's wide. I mean a big oldhead.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
That a head and extra his face in the head
along is bigger than a large watermeltonin wreck.

Speaker 2 (46:34):
What it is?

Speaker 5 (46:35):
He's a big guy. That's wrong with that?

Speaker 3 (46:36):
Look, I got needs for y'all. He knows he's a
big guy. Absolutely, nobody's fooled him. Would his face be smaller?
Just like would mine be smaller? If I wouldn't a fact,
it would be okay. I mean, look, I just want
to I'm gonna get real I'm ready for society to
get real again. Okay, we're just not real anymore. We
we exaggerate, We we have faults political correctness, feel good ism. Look,

(47:00):
if you weigh three hundred and forty pounds and you're wide,
people don't want to sit by you in a plane.
That's the reality South.

Speaker 6 (47:05):
You know what I would do too. I believe if
they got lawyers and they went to trial, I would
make I would ask the judge to let him go
up and sit next to some of the jurors and say, now,
you tell me, this is, okay, what.

Speaker 3 (47:18):
I would do if I was Southwest Airlines. I said,
I'd like to take a two jurors. I'm gonna sit
you in three seats. I'm gonna put him in the
middle and put you on each side. Look that I'm
gonna tell you good luck and enjoy your right in Chicago.

Speaker 5 (47:29):
Let's just be let's just be logical about this.

Speaker 6 (47:34):
If you let's say you're the company, you're you're you're
sending a letter across town versus an elephant, okay, and
you asked fat Acts to do it for the world.

Speaker 5 (47:44):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (47:45):
Do you think that the elephant's gonna take up more room,
be more weight, and be a bigger handle to deliver
than the overnight letter, So it's probably gonna cost more. Right,
I don't think that's unreasonable.

Speaker 3 (47:56):
By the way, it's a good analogy, by the way,
to own me.

Speaker 5 (47:58):
But you're right.

Speaker 6 (47:59):
I mean, I guarantee you if they will set him
between juror number three and four, you'll get two votes.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
Oh yeah, yeah, you.

Speaker 6 (48:07):
Are here, And I just i'd move him around the
whole thing and say, you tell me that's how you
want to fly.

Speaker 5 (48:12):
Look, hey, I'm Sorry, you're bigging.

Speaker 4 (48:14):
I got you.

Speaker 6 (48:14):
But look, this is a time space, weight fuel issue.
You pay, Look and they publicize it. You got to
buy two seats. How about this dude may need three? Okay,
he may need one on each side to give you
a little space. That's seats they can't sell to a
happy customer. I'll tell you that.

Speaker 12 (48:32):
What if you give someone an extra seat, an extra
flight for sitting next to him?

Speaker 3 (48:37):
Now you're talking, somebody.

Speaker 4 (48:39):
Say, anybody here willing to sit next this guy? You
get a free ticket to.

Speaker 5 (48:42):
Wherever you want to get print common sense.

Speaker 6 (48:48):
Oh he's bumping if you're If you are afraid of
hurting this man's feelings, he needs to make sure that
his feelings can't be hurt by not being three hundred
and forty pounds, right, I.

Speaker 5 (49:00):
Listen, I understand we are fat.

Speaker 8 (49:02):
I got it.

Speaker 6 (49:03):
But I'm not blind too. It's one thing to be fat,
it's another thing to be blind, fat and an idiot. Okay,
that is the problem.

Speaker 5 (49:14):
Don't don't go for the triple crown. Deal with what
you got. He go for the crown.

Speaker 6 (49:21):
We've been telling people a long time. Look, if you're overweight,
it ain't the end of the world, enjoy your life,
you need to lose some weight, get in shape, whatever,
that's fine. I mean, we're not but you gotta you
gotta deal with the realism of the space you're taking up.

Speaker 3 (49:35):
That's all about what you're saying is and this is
where we are in today's society.

Speaker 6 (49:39):
I want to I don't be all three.

Speaker 3 (49:41):
I want to. I want to be as big as
I want to be and I but I don't want
there to be anything changed in the way I go
through the world as someone who's not big as I am.

Speaker 5 (49:50):
That's just not reality. If you say like we do, Hey,
we enjoy ourselves. We know we got some weight.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
You know.

Speaker 3 (49:56):
Let's say that. I kept saying, Look, I I am
a person of wait, but by golly, I'm gonna get
in that roller coaster. No not if you can't fit
in and they pull that arm down. Yeah yeah, if
they can't pull the arm down, then you know, then
big ton of funds gotta get out, you know what
I mean. I mean, then when we choose to be
so big, all I'm saying is you're gonna have to sacrifice.

(50:16):
You may say it's worth it, but don't go around
like Bubba said and say, I'm gonna be as big
as I want to be, and nothing can change for me.
I have to be able to do anything anybody else wants.

Speaker 5 (50:25):
Know, you can't you know if I'm gonna be huge,
there's certain things that I'm gonna have to trust.

Speaker 3 (50:29):
Are you know?

Speaker 6 (50:30):
If you're the airline, put one row of seats.

Speaker 5 (50:32):
It's like a couch in.

Speaker 6 (50:33):
It's three seats. Charge three seats and so here you go.

Speaker 4 (50:36):
Here you go. We fly fat. Everybody wins with us.

Speaker 5 (50:40):
Here's the regular price.

Speaker 4 (50:41):
We fly fat, everybody wins. You talking about a rewards program?

Speaker 5 (50:45):
Goodness, God, we're have a fat plane. Yes, fat people, this.

Speaker 4 (50:52):
Is the one you can get on.

Speaker 5 (50:53):
You couldn't fly many though. Put a seat out. Look,
well they're paying for the extra seats. You had to
get a Sea one thirty. Still you're paying for the
extra seats. Say if you take up the weight in
space of three people, then just what you pay for?

Speaker 6 (51:07):
Really?

Speaker 5 (51:07):
What you have? Stations do you get and you lock
in your seat?

Speaker 6 (51:10):
Bouts lot one of these straps, the whole logs on
a logging truck with it. Well, just high yourself down and.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
Here you go.

Speaker 5 (51:15):
Well, what you're talking about everybody has a great time.

Speaker 3 (51:18):
Like you said, you can be large, but you can
also just throw away the laws of physics mathematics. When
a fat person sits down and the way airplanes are
set up, some of their body and unfortunately a lot
of at times gets over in the other person's seat.

Speaker 5 (51:33):
It just does.

Speaker 3 (51:35):
So I really never thought the Southwest was being unreasonable
to say, if you're certain with you're gonna have to
pick up that second seat for us. Yeah, you know,
I choose to be large, Okay, within flying costs war
for you on certain airlines the way they're set up,
and there's some parts of the plane they're big enough,
it doesn't matter. But if you're gonna sit on Southwest
where it is the cattle call flying, which is fine

(51:56):
because they try to give you a good deal and
they don't pretend to be anything other than who they are,
which is what I like about them. But and they're
set up being that big or bigger, it's tough.

Speaker 6 (52:07):
If you If you sell him three seats his seat
and the two on each side of him, and you
break him into thirds, that's one hundred and thirteen pounds each.
So if you're paying for three that that that works out.
I don't see nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 3 (52:21):
I don't know how you're gonna get in that little
bathroom because you know anyway, I'll tell.

Speaker 4 (52:25):
You this, Listen, you can't.

Speaker 6 (52:28):
As an airline. As an airline, I cannot change your
physical dementsions to get through the door for you, exactly.
I just can't do that right again, But if you
build a fat plane, I'll have a door on it
that is exactly the size as the door to get
in the plane.

Speaker 5 (52:45):
So if you can't get in the plane, you can't
get in the bathroom.

Speaker 4 (52:47):
You don't fly, right.

Speaker 6 (52:48):
That's just when you call yeah Temple, Yeah, it's it's
a template.

Speaker 5 (52:54):
Here's what it is.

Speaker 3 (52:55):
You call hello, Southwest Airlines. Yes, I wanna see if
you get a flight from so and so to so
and so. All right, fat plane or a regular plane.
I'll be on the fat plane, okay, and you the
fat flop Yeah yeah, I'll take fat flight.

Speaker 5 (53:08):
Yeah, fat flight?

Speaker 3 (53:10):
Or would you? And you can't even make it sound.

Speaker 4 (53:11):
Like and what you do too?

Speaker 6 (53:12):
You have regular passengers went on the fat flight because
they call and go I need to get to Minneapolis,
and I go, Well, the plane left thirty minutes ago.
But we got a flight at four thirty.

Speaker 4 (53:21):
We'll give me that.

Speaker 6 (53:22):
Oh I'm sorry, it's a fat flight. Are you fat
enough to.

Speaker 8 (53:24):
Be on that?

Speaker 3 (53:25):
Are you willing to fat price?

Speaker 5 (53:27):
Fat price?

Speaker 7 (53:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (53:28):
Where everything's a little bit bigger. And do they get
a fat pilot? Absolutely? Yeah.

Speaker 12 (53:33):
Steward Hey, the stewardest you ever tried to get up
in the fat start now, Yes, yeah, everybody's got to
be fat, really unless you pay a bigger price, big mama,
where everybody wins.

Speaker 4 (53:44):
We fly fat.

Speaker 5 (53:46):
And I'll tell you one thing.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
On the fat flight, you get a you get a
bag of Peanist's like, what'd you get the baseball game?

Speaker 5 (53:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (53:53):
Oh yeah, and milkshake.

Speaker 2 (53:57):
Ricking bubba, ricking bubba.

Speaker 5 (54:00):
You know, there's always stories in the golden tickets. You
never know what story.

Speaker 6 (54:04):
Those never never fail to amaze. And miss Anna is
who is a very proud grandmother, so I was all
over that she was telling me about her grandkids. Speedy,
you want to get this story. This is the story
that needs to be shared.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
Rick, Okay, Anna's did you you now? A lot of
people around the country know that. You know, for the
last four years, the state of Alabama has won the
BCS National Championship and the University of University of Alabama
has won three of those four.

Speaker 6 (54:32):
Yeah, okay, pretty impressed.

Speaker 3 (54:34):
Pretty impressive. And you know that we have, you know,
some some characters on the program that you know, they're
fans of teams that that are very successful. They're very
they're really into it.

Speaker 5 (54:44):
Now, Anna's you.

Speaker 6 (54:45):
You were telling me about your grandkids and that you
guys are big, big, big Alabama fans.

Speaker 5 (54:52):
Tag we are.

Speaker 6 (54:54):
Tell everybody their names.

Speaker 13 (54:56):
Have one name time eight T T I T y
d eh T y day have one Saban and he's
fixing turned six.

Speaker 5 (55:05):
How's your son in law Harvey doing? Sorry, I'm sorry.

Speaker 13 (55:15):
This is my son's children.

Speaker 5 (55:18):
Okay, and he and his wife are real big Alabama.
Really you can't tell you.

Speaker 10 (55:23):
So?

Speaker 4 (55:23):
Now are they are?

Speaker 5 (55:24):
They are their plans for more. I just wondered what
the name they had a little girl.

Speaker 13 (55:29):
They would probably name her Crimpson or something is Saban,
Saban will turn Saban would turn six Mars to twentieth.

Speaker 5 (55:37):
Let me count back.

Speaker 9 (55:38):
So they took a chance on whether sav was going
to pan out or had done good, you know.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
What I mean?

Speaker 5 (55:42):
It worked out, but that's a game. Really six seasons ago,
six seasons ago, he was still up for grabs. That
might have been one of them.

Speaker 3 (55:48):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 5 (55:50):
That looks like he's a people named her kid Barfield level.

Speaker 13 (55:54):
My daughter in law is a teacher and she was
pregnant at the time, and so they hadn't figured out
what they was gonna name this baby. So my son
Tim went in. He said, Hannah, I know what we're
gonna name our baby. And she said what he said, Sabing,
And she said, I don't know about that, Tim, And
I think some of her family didn't know, but I
didn't care, you know, I love him whatever, that's right.

(56:15):
But they did decide to name him Saban.

Speaker 5 (56:17):
Why me saying it worked out? But what if you
know coach hadn't turned it around he got canned in
like two years.

Speaker 13 (56:22):
Well, we was still we would still had our saving
and he's got he's.

Speaker 5 (56:25):
Got three names you could use, you know, first medal
in last y'all could just went to whatever.

Speaker 3 (56:28):
That, you know, I would have gone with something it
was a little more sure to do. I think I
think I name him up Shall worked out good.

Speaker 5 (56:36):
Yeah, the show, that's a lot of babies named Shoela
out there. That goodness, they didn't they weren't born during
the price time. Oh boy, that had been tough.

Speaker 3 (56:44):
Oh yeah, that would have been tough. That price was
not right.

Speaker 13 (56:49):
No matter if Saban does leave us, we'll still have
our saving.

Speaker 3 (56:54):
Well, you always have saving and tied.

Speaker 5 (56:59):
What would be bad as if the kids grew up
in they were Auburn fans. You know, they'll make a
choice at some point.

Speaker 13 (57:04):
My boss that I had at the time when when
seven was born, he asked me what would I do
