Carrie Underwood will sing at Trump's inauguration. The Vikings become the first team to win 14 games in a season and lose the Wild Card round.

we're ready for episode two now, adder, what's the am
I doing? Am I rushing that? What's the what's the
protocol for in the in the hip world of streaming
and all this new fangled technology? Should I be? What's
the time frame before we should have episode two? What
do what do all the streaming goobs say about that?

Speaker 4 (03:29):
What does the producer say about that?

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Well, he thinks that it's it's almost time, but not
quiet time, okay, which means he doesn't have time to
finish it yet.

Speaker 5 (03:38):
Right.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
The edit? The edit is so grueling, my goodness.

Speaker 6 (03:42):
If you shoot for one hour, plan on editing for ten,
it's really that kind of a ratio. It's it's horrible
editing is so painstaking, but he did a great job
on it. Way to go Broadster, And I know your
dad's pressuring you, But no pressure, buddy.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Okay, but episode two is coming though. Matter of fact,
I'm going to see him Lord Willing Saturday. According to
his mother. Uh you know every time?

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Have you ever?

Speaker 1 (04:09):
At what time is it? Oh? No, way, you're good? Okay?
The adult kid world, Married kid World? Oh yeah, okay, Greg,
you're familiar. Uh speed of your friend. I'm familiar with both?
Did you do? You sometimes hear your son's version and
then you hear your wife's version, and it doesn't seem

(04:32):
as in stone when you talk to him as it
did when you talk to her. Oh yeah, hey, that's
coming over Saturday, and then you kind of done. Then
you kind of talk to your son and you're like,
I didn't That doesn't sound that doesn't sound on the calendar,
it was a possibility. That sounds like that sounds like
they're they're they're working on that. Maybe you're pretty confident

(04:53):
he's not you You've got it. Just my goodness, you
got it right here on your calendar. I mean, I
don't I don't think he wrote it his or many
times hers. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (05:03):
So also, I don't know if it's just the guy
in us or whatever, but I'm very sensitive in bothering them,
you know.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
And let me be clear, we're the only ones that
see it that way.

Speaker 7 (05:13):
Guy's gonna say, because Terry Wilburn runs right through that
stop sign, she couldn't care less.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
I'm like, no, why are you calling him? What are
you doing? Honey?

Speaker 4 (05:21):
I know what?

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Hey, what are you doing? Sorry? Body, I'm sorry. You'll
do a background sorry body, Yeah, I'll do an assistant
coach if you don't watch you.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
Hey, sorry about this body.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
Trying to help you. Yeah, I just just answer her questions.
She'll let you go. Yeah. So if you if you
ask my wife, I'm absolutely seeing Brody and his wife's Saturday.
If I talked to Brody, it's probably going to say, yeah,
I hope we can do that. So but I will
see him thirsty too, by the way, because it's that
weird thing where I have to work with him again. Oh,

(05:51):
it's he works for an He worked you know, Ironhill
Press that his partners with Burgess Ministries on all things
man Church. So you know, Conference number one is one
week from Friday in Birmingham, Alabama. As a matter of fact,
I think we have Hugh Freeze coming on Thursday, Thursday
of this week. He's speaking there. We had Granger Smith
last Friday. But anyway, so I've got to go shoot

(06:15):
a video. It's weird with Ironhill Press about something that
involving the conference in next year. I mean this year,
Rick it's here, Buddy twenty five is here this year,
and then he's the one who shoots it, and like
I'm getting like scripts from him and what time I'm
supposed to be there, which is awkward. So so anyway,

(06:35):
I will see him Thursday. Do you bring up our
stuff when he's working for somebody else?

Speaker 8 (06:42):
No?

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Is that bad? You say the Rick episode episode? Yeah,
the Rick Burgess show stuff.

Speaker 9 (06:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Probably in the game, I mean downtime. I mean, so
am I sitting there while he's working getting this project
done Thursday and start talking about our project and can
get an update?

Speaker 10 (06:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Like cashy, Hey, if I said camp host camp House
tells the Campus episode two too, you just real quick?
What would you say back? Something like that? Right?

Speaker 11 (07:05):
What?

Speaker 1 (07:05):
What we what we talking?

Speaker 7 (07:07):
It is interesting to find out what they think about
the time frame on these because if you release two
too quickly, then everybody forgets about.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
One, right, And that's what he's trying to thank you,
Speedy for playing the role of my son. And probably
Adler he just don't want to say it right, you know,
because he's he. Adler's the young buck. He's the closest
thing to Brody we got. You know, he's the closest
thing to our kids that we have. He's he's not
as far away from them as we are. Yeah, No,
that's true. You're the in between, buddy.

Speaker 4 (07:35):
That's fine. I'm fine with that.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
So how old are you?

Speaker 4 (07:37):
And I'm thirty nine? Just turn thirty nine?

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Okay, so my oldest kid is thirty five. Wow, I
can almost be crazy. I could almost be your dad. Yeah, buddy,
your friends with d Now what is your dad?

Speaker 12 (07:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (07:51):
I know, I know, but your dad's older than me.
But your dad's older than me, he is. Yeah, what
I'm saying a long shot? Not a long shot? Maybe
what eight six yeers, babes, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
I'm a son, so we don't track that stuff right.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
Well, what I'm thinking, see you should I'm talking about
if I'm sixty Yeah, so you know, thirty five that means,
you know, I had a kid at twenty five, So
in order to be Adler's dad, I'd have to go
on back down to like twenty twenty. I guess I
could twenty.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
Yeah, something like that.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
It would be a little awkward.

Speaker 6 (08:24):
I'm one of four boys, and so if you get
all four of us together and we pool our resources,
we could probably tell you how old my dad was.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
Okay, you know, but your dad is so youthful. None
of us see him older than me. And I get that.

Speaker 6 (08:38):
Yeah, and I keeps turning sixty in my mind, you know. Yeah,
I think of that self preservation on my part.

Speaker 8 (08:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Let me say, looking at your parents genetically, I don't
know what happens in all the other parts of your family,
but as far as your immediate parents looking pretty healthy
and pretty youthful.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
They're doing good.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (08:57):
Good.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (08:58):
My dad came and visited me one time at the
at the Harley Davidson motorcycle shop that I was working at.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yeah, you're a mechanic and I.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
Was a detailed technician, greg so detailed tech.

Speaker 6 (09:13):
And he comes in and he was probably, I guess,
in his mid fifties at the time, and all the
guys that I'm working with are in their thirties and
forties and maybe early fifties, but because of the life
that they've lived, they looked like all of them looked
like they were seventy eighties, ninety years old getting on
a motorcycle, right, just riding a motorcycle in itself, that'll

(09:36):
aid you. And so they found out that my dad
was like sixty one or something like that, and my
manager was like.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
Man, how do you look like that? And I'm like, well,
a lot of a lot of better choices.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yeah, a little different lifestyle here.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Yeah, I think that's in the moment, I said, vitamin Jesus.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
But that's good. Well, you're right. When's the last time
you looked at an aging Harley guy and thought he
looks youthful.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
He's doing good.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Don't wrinkles at all. You really don't see that much to.

Speaker 4 (10:06):
You that man is threadbare. You just look at a
person and they're like, that's a threadbare person.

Speaker 6 (10:12):
One time with the mechanics, one of the mechanics, I
was like, man, I need to drink more water, and
he goes, I don't drink water.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
Ever, I'm like, I can tell mister California raising I
love you.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
I love you man. I don't drink water ever. This
is the Rick Burgess show, Humans Versus Nature. We've seen it.
It's just it's not great. So, and you know, I
have some concerns and I feel like, you know how

(10:48):
Paul Revere must have felt when no one would listen
that the British were coming. And so I have been
warning everybody within the sound of this voice. The animals
are after us, and they've elevated their attack and their
military forces in ways that are unprecedented. And we've never

(11:09):
seen the things they do. Now, how many more times
are we going to have to hear this particular animal
did something that was not normal we've never seen. We
had a story we didn't get to. Was it yesterday
or last week? The giant great white shark that we
now see just sitting out there on the beach going
this looks like easy eating. I'm stalking people, baby, and

(11:30):
you know they made a movie about me all that. So,
and this is not a highly dangerous, you know animal,
But I feel like the animal's doing something and I
don't I don't know why this animal keeps doing this.
So if you remember when we were taking the Christmas
trees down and all that drama of speedy you know,

(11:52):
regretting let me borrow his truck.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
And all that.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Found a few more scratches, Yes, sorry about that, but
I'm telling you that had to do with the once
I had lost one tree and now I'm putting them
in angry. Literally he had it for forty five minutes, right,
it wasn't very long. It wasn't very long. Was it
was for a full hour? Right? And so so if
you remember the doors, what what is it called? If

(12:16):
you're is it French doors? If you have two that
you can open it like the open don't know, Yeah,
we all don't know why the French are credited with that.
I'll take a guess. But anyway, so uh makes more
sense now.

Speaker 11 (12:33):
So uh.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Okay, yeah, okay, uh we uh boom boom. So anyway,
just last night and we all know this, we've we've
talked about this agnousium that apparently our wives have stock
in Amazon something. I don't you talk about something that

(13:00):
that was a game changer for the people who like
the shop. Yeah, okay, that's funny, Yeah, that is funny.
So anyway, uh, the pictures coming in and they're talking
about the Speedish shirt today. I think that shirt, you know,
I mean we.

Speaker 7 (13:14):
I guess people can find the square. Somebody said that
they're playing tact.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Yeah, that's not a bad shirt. Different pictures it does.
I think it's different on camera than it does here.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
But then it changed the color on Oh I see.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
Okay, I guess fine. But anyway, so he looks like
he's on fire. So are y'all like me? And I
think the answer is yes, just based on what I've
heard y'all already say. But I'll get you to confirm.
I now look at the porch, the front porch, the
way I used to look at the mailbox. The front porch. Yeah. Yeah,

(13:47):
So I'll periodically look out there to see something's out there.
It's part of my routines. My dogs might mess with
it or something. Yeah, I can't let it sit there long.
So I'm on the way to uh to go to
to go to bed, to go to bed, and all
of a sudden I look out and I said, well,
there's a package. There's a dog on package. Who who
knows what this is. I'm not exaggerating this. The only

(14:11):
time it took was one side okay, because I don't.
You don't use both sidesess, you got to bring stuff in.
I took the latch off, unlocked the lock, the boats
and all that. This is how long? Open door, grabb box,
shut door back, that's all. It was that quick, that's all.
It was no more time than that. So I turned around,
go in there and put it on the kitchen island.

(14:32):
You know, Sherry's in there brushing her teeth and going
to bed. I turned to go and I hear ch
chp and not again, not yet, bed time, not again.
And so I looked around and there's a stupid bird
sitting perching on one of the lamps. Again even get
in here. They must be nesting on your porch out there,
chip chirp, And I'm well, there was a side of

(14:55):
me that said, now I'm just going to bed. And
then Sherry, do I hear that bird? And then all
of a sudden, she well, I know, and that's what
she said. She says, he said, I don't want this thing,
you know, crapping all over the lamps. You were good
with going to bed? And I how laugh? Can that
chirt be kind of soothing? Yeah? And I can shut
my bedroom door. I am about to deal with the bird.

(15:16):
Let the bird run around, you know, And she'said, I
know we got to get this. So here I am
at bedtime sleepy too. You know who I am. I'm
the guy that's sat down on the couch in front
of the TV and dozed off and had hisself a
little nice dass hairs all over his head. And I'm trying,
as we all know, and all of you know this,
I'm trying not to get awake so much that now

(15:37):
I'm gonna have a big guy when I lay down, exactly,
I want to stay in that stupor and then going
out for the for the rest of the night. And
now this bird's gonna bring me out of the stupor. Yeah,
your heart rate elevating. Then you got to go sit
in front of the TV for a minute, right too.
So now I've got I'm and now I'm certainly not
gonna do what I did last time and go all
the way out to the backyard and get the pooled net.

(15:58):
I'm not Dad. So you know that thing, you know
that thing that if you have those recessed floodlights and
they're too high and as a section the section I
want to so I get that out, okay, because it's
got the extended okay. Yeah, And then for some reason
Sherry thought she would try a broom. But what's funny,
and this is how comedic, this is the whole deal

(16:22):
is because you know, our house is like twenty one
years old something like that. And if you remember, in
that era, we left the standard eight foot ceiling and
now everybody's got to have these big cathedral ceilings and whatever.
So the bird is now living higher than the doorframe.
You can't get them to go back, so which then

(16:43):
you have to get up on the go up the
steps and try to use your body or some one
of these things. I have to force the bird down.
Even when the bird goes to flying, it keeps flying
toward the door, but above the door. Yeah, so you
got it. For some reason, you start talking to it
like I'm like, I'm not no door. And then I
got to start this. You're are you the guy? You're

(17:04):
the same bird? You know how to get out. We
got you out last time, so apparently, and we did
this for you know, another twenty minutes till finally it
flew out again. So I'm thinking to myself, is this
now my experience. Can I not go to my own
front door and walk out or or pick something up?
I didn't leave the door open for a long period

(17:24):
of time. I can't even open that door now without
the stupid bird coming in. It's like it was waiting. Yeah, yeah,
it's just that same bird. It's the same bird. He's
he or she is back. God, you realize how little
time that door was opened. So is it out there waiting? Now?
Why does it wont end? Question? How does it know
you're coming for it?

Speaker 7 (17:42):
Do you associate that delivery and opening of the door
of when it got in or was it in and
you finally hurt?

Speaker 1 (17:49):
No, it came in there and then I said, he
you look, it goes to chirp and a meeting. Okay,
it'll chirp. Well, they don't like men in there. You
don't know why he's in there?

Speaker 4 (17:57):
Yeah, hey bird people, if you're watching on YouTube, what
what kind of bird is this? Exactly?

Speaker 1 (18:02):
I think it's an Eastern phoebe? Eastern phoebe. I can't
believe I just said that. What is it's something? Sherry said?
I didn't come up.

Speaker 4 (18:10):
Is it really the same bird? Because this is from Christmas?

Speaker 1 (18:13):
That you sent me the exact same bird. If if
I was at the police office and the policeman was saying,
is this the bird that keeps attacking you, I'd say
that's that's the one second from the left.

Speaker 4 (18:23):
Not the same breed, Greg, it's the same bird.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
I take you the same bird.

Speaker 7 (18:26):
A text her has asked a great question. Do you
have a wreath on the door, and when you open
the doors it just sitting.

Speaker 11 (18:31):
In the road.

Speaker 4 (18:32):
It's nested.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
A good question. But there is no wreath. Wreath gone?
All right, so that's okay. Is there a nest under
that porch? I gotta go look together. There's a nest
under there? I guanteed. I dodn't think they nest this.
I don't think they do all that this time of year.
Who knows anybody, anybody an expert on an eastern phoebe
or they just he just likes hanging around your life.
I think it's an attack. I think it's just be that.

(18:57):
Why does it want in there and and warm?

Speaker 13 (19:00):
Right?

Speaker 14 (19:00):
Well?

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Dump birds? Can't they handle you with that? And they
dealt with I don't think they know about that?

Speaker 11 (19:05):
How right?

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Just fly south of his two co here, go keep
going South to Mobile. I heard a lot about your
lines South don't come in here. Yeah, so now I
can't even open my door. That's a phoebe. And we'll
be right back.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
This is the Rick Burgess Show, all.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
Right, So we're back. Thanks for being with us today.
Also made an announcement yesterday. You may have missed it,
but coming up this Saturday, wherever you get podcasts, a
new podcast is starting celebrating the thirty one years of
the Rick and Bubba Show. It will be called Rick
and Bubba's Greatest Hits in Radio Gold wherever you get podcasts,

(19:50):
and it will be operational and we'll continue to add
to that catalog where you can enjoy best of moments
from those thirty one wonderful years on your own podcast.
So look for that coming up this Saturday.

Speaker 8 (20:03):
All right.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
So we're looking into the world of sport for just
a moment. And when looking in the world of sport,
and I think this discussion we've had here on the
show when we were before, when we were working on
the Rick and Bubba Show altogether, and that is can
Dion Sanders Is he a professional NFL coach? Can that work?

(20:28):
Is it real? And we've gone back and forth on
why it may or may not work. But the Cowboys
they're done with Mike McCarthy, he is out. I've watched
some videos of Troy Aitman being very frank about the
state of the Cowboys, blaming Jerry Jones and not even
pulling any punches on that one. And I think Jerry

(20:51):
Jones falls into that category where at one time you
were an asset to the product, and the product owes
you a lot because without you, the product would not
be where it is. But then somewhere along the way
you started to becoming a detriment to the product. And
uh and and so people are starting to think Jerry

(21:15):
Jones is now in the latter, not in the former.
I don't know whether there's certain things about Jerry Jones
I don't care for, but then there's I don't know
enough about it too, But then there's other things. I go, well,
I mean, he's but I'll tell you one thing. The
Cowboys are worth more money now than they've ever been.
Oh man, his original investment and what is worth now? Yeah?

Speaker 11 (21:32):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
So now the story is from Mail Online Cowboys open
talks with Dion Sanders over there now vacancy.

Speaker 7 (21:42):
Yeah, yeah, in Monday Night football last night, the I
call it Monday Night Football. It was the it was
the game that was moved from LA because of the
wildfire from for the Rams were hosting the Vikings and
then blew them out, by the way.

Speaker 1 (21:57):
That's another story.

Speaker 7 (21:58):
But at halftime out of Adam Scheffner sat down and
kind of broke this story about how Jerry called Dion
and they're talking now. Dion has come out like a
classic coach and said, I love it here. Of course
I'm older, and but it was it was it was
nice to hear from Jerry, and I love He's pleasant
to talk to and love the man.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
But I'm fine here. I know how many times that
mean anything. Let's go, I'll go through coaching history NFL
and college. Yeah, how many times a coach told us
that they were staying right where they are and they're
not talking to anybody. That's right?

Speaker 7 (22:31):
Yeah, yeah, But so but you know, it does go
back to it seems like and this is just the
people from the inside that tell us the story, right
that Jerry's in the way and we've heard that for
how many years?

Speaker 1 (22:43):
But I mean, I don't know how old is Jerry now?
He's up there. Yeah eighty two.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
Right, Wow, tell y'all's point.

Speaker 7 (22:51):
Troy Aikman, who was a little under the weather last night,
was he Yeah, it didn't sound good.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
Did he struggle?

Speaker 6 (22:56):
He commented on this exactly what you guys are saying,
and he's got to hit you know, he's a cowboy.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
I want to be a cowboy, Mini rings. Greg's a
cowboy man.

Speaker 15 (23:10):
Talking about the Jerry Jones situation, I do think the
Cowboys are obviously a high profile team. Whoever is covering
or whoever is head coaching of that team is is
certainly going to draw a lot of attention. But I
think most football people that take over as a head coach,
they want to do it on their terms.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
Yeah, that's hard to do, and it's you know, if you.

Speaker 16 (23:30):
Take a Dan Campbell for instances, Dan Campbell, Dan Campbell,
if he's with the Dallas Cowboys, that's it's hard to
imagine that he is. It's hard to imagine that a
lot of these coaches might be so I I you know,
I love the Dallas Cowboys.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
I played there for twelve years.

Speaker 16 (23:44):
I wish them well, But to say that it's a
coveted job, I'm not sure I'll necessarily.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Agree with that, but he just had the same microphone
we did. Yes he does, Greg, don't be like that.
Tom's working so hard. But I want to go back
to what we just said. And you hear Troy Aikman
saying it. You can be the greatest coach in the world,
but if you're working for a man, that won't give
you the authority to run the team, the franchise, or

(24:11):
the program, if it's college the way you want to
do it. And the best coaches are not coaches that
are going to be somebody's boy. They're just not. They're
going to They're going to come and say, if you
want to hire me, then I run the program the
way I want to run it or the franchise, and
stay out of my world and let me coach and

(24:32):
let me do this, let me let me let me
build you a team. Yeah, you're right. And if Jerry
is not one of those people, then Troy's making the point.
It's not as sought after as you would think. And
I don't think Dion Sanders would want to work in
that situation, not from not from his personality, So I
don't know that's interesting.

Speaker 7 (24:51):
And Mike McCarthy already has a scheduled interview with the
Chicago Bears, so he's going to get picked up quick.
I think they have to wait contractually, they have to
wait a certain amount of time before he can go
and get interviewed or something.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah. So yeah, some people are saying, and I'd forgotten
about this, that the way that Jerry Jones treated Tom
Landry was something they never got over. They said, look,
you can get rid of a legend. But the way
they got rid of him, he said he thought was classless.
This is in the text here, so yeah, I barely

(25:24):
remember it, but but it had to be done. Was
the right decision, it was. They're just saying he didn't
have it with class So so anyway, we'll we'll do.
Y'all think Dion Sanders can translate into an NFL coach?

Speaker 7 (25:40):
Well, you know, it's kind of weird because with Shador Sanders,
you wonder who's going to get him. And I mean,
you know, the Cowboys just got pretty invested with Dak right,
who's going to be coming off an injury that toward
uh what hamstring pulled it from the bone and everything.
It was a pretty bad one. Uh And but I

(26:02):
think he's going to be ready. So you just wonder,
you know, because the Cowboys didn't do well, would he
be around to get who knows? I mean, it would
be kind of cool to see uh deon Senders coaching
the Cowboys just for the entertainment side of things, just
because of his personality and no Cowboys.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
Yeah, yeah, I'm concerned that the things he's doing that
i mean really very quickly helped Colorado to be competitive
again the way he went about it, my way or
no way. It's just hard to coach professionals like that. Yeah,
that's Nick Saban, but being a professional, that's right, it

(26:42):
was he has an inside and he knows that's a
good point an NFL player. No, you're right, that's a
good point.

Speaker 7 (26:47):
Savings list that think he would take up. He would
take anything from Jerry.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
Well to your point, Greg had he can see it
from both sides. He can see it from the coach side. Yeah,
and then he can go to not just being a player,
but being a prima donna on the team. What what
bothered him and what didn't too? So yeah, you're right,
I can be a good hire. Yeah. Top of the hour.
Thanks for being with us. You miss any part of
the show today, don't forget. The daily archives are available

(27:16):
for you on the YouTube channel or the podcast channel.
More of the Rick Burgess Show coming up right after this.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
This is the Rick Burgess Show, so.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
Be paying attention that that maybe could spend at any time,
and we'll spend on today's program. So, as you heard,
the gang is all here as we start a brand
new game, the Gang is all here. Glad you are here.
So I wanted to bring up something that also, you know,
we had in you know, this whole winter weather thing.

(27:56):
By the way, I don't even know how to and
Span has explained it to us, and we'll hear from
him Lord Willing later in the week. As winter weather
could happen again, even in some of the places where
it just happened, definitely going to be you know, really
really cold for a lot of places where it's not
usually as cold as it's going to be, and you know,
the climate activists will jump up and down again and

(28:19):
they'll conveniently forget that it's not unprecedented. People will start
saying things like it hasn't been this cold here since,
you know, and then they'll give you a date when
it actually was. But anyway, so we got where we live.
I mean we're not talking. I mean our ourt situation
was no big deal, no big deal whatsoever except the

(28:39):
fact that, as we said last week to you, where
we live, and we even did some of this on
the show, which a lot of you seem to enjoy,
we don't know what to do with any sort of
winter weather if it involves snow sleep We I mean,
we don't know what to do. We lose our minds.
Like I said, coming on the show yesterday, it's the apocalypse,
it's the end of time. We we we stock our

(29:01):
homes like we're going to be unable to get to
food for months.

Speaker 11 (29:06):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
And and and what happened on Friday here was the
driving conditions were perfectly fine where we were. Uh by
the time really the show was over, and definitely a
few hours later my travel was not impended at all
over over the over the weekend. So one thing I'm

(29:29):
wondering about, okay, is the US Postal Service. Now, I
know the US Postal Service is not as important to
us now as it once was when when everything when
every when everything was mail. We we don't have to
really go with that anymore. But there are still things
that come to your mail box that are important, still

(29:51):
still still uh. And and like I was, you know,
with us starting a new company this year, the accountant,
probably more casual than I would have liked, mentioned yesterday,
had you ever get such and such card from the
government about payroll? I don't think, and be careful. It's uh,
it's something that might look like you need to throw

(30:12):
it away. Be sure you pay attention. Of course, immediately
think Tom, we don't do good. Well, that's not good.
Well when he described it, I thought, I thought to myself.
I said, Okay, should I have already gotten it? He goes,
not really, but you will get it in the next
few days. Don't throw it away? So am I right?
Or am I wrong? And I told to look around.

(30:35):
I don't know they have it anymore? They have it anymore?
Am I right? Or am I wrong? At one time,
the US Postal Service committed to us that nothing could
stop them from delivering the mail, whether rain, no rain,
nor sleep nor snow. It was the model. Am I
imagining that that was the modo?

Speaker 4 (30:53):
I think it was like an unofficial model.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
But was that once said?

Speaker 4 (30:59):
Well, yes, it was said, But I don't think it
was said by them.

Speaker 1 (31:03):
I don't know who said it. I think it was
actually in there. They used to, didn't They used to
do commercials and have them out in all kinds of conditions,
and they did have this.

Speaker 6 (31:11):
I found this old retro commercial from nineteen eighty nine. Okay,
please watch things have changed.

Speaker 4 (31:18):
You can live on me there.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
Don't think twice service is part of the earning, part
of the country, part of the town.

Speaker 17 (31:28):
And no one else does it. Does we.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
Show they're in the snow, they're in, they're in, they're
in the rain. Okay, So at my house and where
we live, no one could keep from delivering the mail.
It was not that out of weather. Not only did
they not deliver the mail on the day, the day

(32:05):
that it came in, which by the time that I
normally get the mail. I know it affects everybody's mail,
but of all people. Now, I might somebody may say
it's tell me all to stay at home. But if
I'm a US Postal worker in the days, you know, well,
one time I thought they were part of the military. Yeah,
I mean that they were talking about it. Hey, rain, sleet, snow,

(32:26):
no matter what stops, No matter what the the the
and some people are saying, Rick, you may be confusing
the US Postal Service with the Pony Express. Maybe Rick,
we're not that old, but we're delivery. And here's the
thing I've noticed, not only have did they not delivered

(32:48):
the mail on Friday for some reason And I don't
know why they didn't deliver it Saturday either, really and
and and that was like the roads are perfectly and
I ended up not getting anything from the US Postal Service.
It looked like that they shut down on delivering for
almost three full days. And and and I was like,

(33:09):
just in time, of course for Martin Luther King Jr.
Day coming up on Monday.

Speaker 7 (33:12):
But but they messed with my mind because they delivered
the mail on Sunday afternoon at my house and it
was just a stack of stuff because it was from
the last couple of days. But they worked on Sunday
and delivered. But it was threw me off because I
was like, yes, and.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
Again, yeah, there's the mail delivers on Sunday. But I'm
back to this. This was this his white truck.

Speaker 11 (33:37):
You know.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
My point is what was impending them from delivering the
mail where we were. I think they just thought they
couldn't deliver it. Because I drove home Friday after the ship.
There was nothing I could have. I could have put
mail outdriving sounds. Now we know that newman from Seinfeld,
that's a different thing. He wouldn't even deliver in the rain.
But Jerry, which was delarious.

Speaker 6 (33:58):
Remember when Jerry like delivered thirty percent of the packages
and he said, stop, you're making us all look bad.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Yes, what a great absence. So I just it just
it doesn't I don't feel I think it feels like
now anything can stop the mail from being delivered. Okay,
it doesn't feel like it's it's we won't deliver.

Speaker 7 (34:14):
There was a there was one day when I was
talking to the Social Security Administration government and I did
find a blessing inside the program. But she said that
that they, yeah, well I'm not working tomorrow whatever for

(34:36):
a day of morning or something.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
We're closed, oh and shut that service. A guy who
was one hundred died time out, time out. They did
celebrate that. I don't know, but I don't know what
day it was.

Speaker 14 (34:51):
It was one of.

Speaker 4 (34:53):
So it was the day of morning.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
Yeah, what do you mean every time a president former
president dies, we don't deliver mail. That was my question.
I don't deliver It's like they we are morning for
It's like they declared a holiday. Yeah, but it hadn't
been long enough, right, don't that like the next year
and they had to go through the process and we
don't have another The funeral was here, I go with

(35:15):
my mind. The funeral was Friday?

Speaker 17 (35:17):
Right?

Speaker 1 (35:17):
Was it Friday? When we were all it was it Thursday?

Speaker 7 (35:20):
I thought it was Thursday, Okay, I think Thursday was
the day of morning.

Speaker 4 (35:23):
Yeah, Thursday the national day of Morning for Jimmy Carter.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
So they didn't deliver the mail on Thursday because of
the day of morning. Yes, they didn't deliver the mail
in some parts on Friday because of weather, and then
again on Saturday.

Speaker 7 (35:34):
Now that the Sociecurity Administration had a day of morning,
I would think that's a federal office that I'm assuming.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
They were all closed. I don't know that's exactly right.
Okay for Jimmy Listen, the post office was shutdown for
a holiday. Oh yeah, but that's hard. I you know,
we've all talked about. I just thought it didn't seem
like that this was mail delivery stopping weather. The commercial
I just saw and it was an old one. Had

(35:59):
it up. They're putting tire chains on their trucks. Yeah,
it shows I'm hitting the snow.

Speaker 4 (36:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (36:03):
I've never seen a mail truck with tire chains, and
I've never seen a male person put them on.

Speaker 4 (36:10):
Portrayed in that commercial.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
Is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (36:21):
I understand that I'd like to apologize to Speedy before
we move forward into some of our political updates today. Speedy,
I am sorry. Yeah, thank you, Bud. Now, this is
not about scratching your truck. This is anything well you
We've only been doing this show now for in our
second week, and I've already haven't apologized twice. Yeah exactly.

(36:44):
I don't know about y'all.

Speaker 7 (36:45):
But every now and then, Terry will call movie night
at the house every now and then, and it normally
doesn't line up because things are just happening. But last
night we were only two there, everybody's gone, and she said, hey,
how about an early dinner in the movie.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
What do you think?

Speaker 7 (37:00):
But yeah, and I brought up Gladiator too. I said,
it gets out and available now, and what how's that?
And she said, yes, let's let's go for it. So
we start watching it, and the whole time, I'm thinking
about what you've said, and you didn't care for it
that much.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
And one of the reasons you didn't.

Speaker 7 (37:17):
Care for it is you felt like the lead actor
the Gladiator uh was Uh. They didn't cast the right
the right guy.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
I just said he was. He said, he just didn't.
You didn't buy into his character. I didn't.

Speaker 7 (37:31):
And and so the whole movie, which I enjoyed, the
whole movie, I'm thinking, this isn't the right guy. You're
not buying in And the whole movie I couldn't enjoy
it because of you. Thanks, and it's really okay, you
burgess boys. There's no whole time I'm.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
Thinking I did.

Speaker 7 (37:48):
I didn't tell Terry this one time. I kept it
to myself because I didn't want to pull you and
ruin it for her. And so she she we we
finished up.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
She's like, I really like that.

Speaker 7 (37:57):
Did you like it?

Speaker 1 (37:58):
And I went yeah. But the whole time, I'm thinking, man,
they don't have the right guy influence, and I start watching.

Speaker 7 (38:05):
I start watching the movie thinking who else could it
have been? You know, I like Denzel Washington, Sure his
role was a little different.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
It was surprised me. But I don't. By the way,
I don't like when I'm being asked not to like
Denzel Washington. I didn't like that either. No, I didn't
like how it turned. But I mean, oh, he's a
bad guy eventually. It's been that a long time now
that it really happened. Don't get too attached to denzil.

Speaker 4 (38:34):
I'm not watching it now. Come out, do y'all.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
But do you is there a chance there's no way
to know, there's no art. Well, maybe we can, maybe
we can, there's no way to know. I wish there
was some way I could know if you would have
bought that actor as the Gladiator, if I'd never said anything.

Speaker 4 (38:50):
Yeah, he's very impressionable. He is incredibly You.

Speaker 7 (38:55):
Got to watch what you say around speed steer him wrong, No,
see this and turning on me.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
So he's the one that ruined it, not me. Well,
just watched the movie. I just watch the.

Speaker 4 (39:08):
Manipulated, very easily.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
Influenced.

Speaker 4 (39:12):
He's tricked easily.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
Jim Jones would love the drink. Thank you, Rick, I
appreciate that. But all right, I'm not going to say
anything else what you already have. I'm gonna saything else.
Did the whole time, I'm thinking, man, they miscast this guy?

(39:36):
Who could it have been? I start, you know, my mind,
I'm sure through it and yeah.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
What about like uh Patrick Swayze or something.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
He's if we catch You can only cast actors who
are alive and would be in the right age bracket
now to be that gladiator. I will say this though,
how great was Russell Crowe in there?

Speaker 2 (39:58):
Riginal good Man?

Speaker 1 (40:01):
You're talking about now?

Speaker 7 (40:02):
I'm not talking about personal life because I know he's
a crazy one, but I think i've I've heard that. Yeah,
there I am saying it. But they do some flashbacks
and hey, wow, he's so solid, I know, and then.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
Work any worse. Greg came in today he thought Channingtatum
should have been in what you know, surprising one. I know.

Speaker 4 (40:25):
Greg's a big chantingatu fanes.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
He starts doing all that breakdance. It should have been
John Wick. Now, hey wait a minute, Okay, now is
the age? Yeah? I don't know if I can buy,
but those are the kind of things that are going
through my mind watching.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
Great All the Rock definitely bel Gibson at his.

Speaker 1 (40:48):
Prime and it's prime. Yeah, but you can't take the
rock and that's serious. The big movie him in the arena.
I'd love to see the rock in the arena.

Speaker 4 (41:00):
Yeah, Norris, I would have been good. He can we
hear Russell Crose are entertain of course we can.

Speaker 13 (41:08):
Tame.

Speaker 4 (41:10):
Oh you're not at the time, very entertained.

Speaker 1 (41:16):
I wish somehow we could have had Russell Crowe in
his prime and then put Denzel in the row he's
in and put them together. Yeah, it is Russell Crowe
still fat? Or was that from a movie?

Speaker 4 (41:27):
I think he's fat, Thank you, Greg.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
I think what was the movie where he was like
the drone operator? Did y'all say that?

Speaker 18 (41:35):
No?

Speaker 1 (41:35):
I did not. I did pretty good.

Speaker 8 (41:38):
What was that.

Speaker 4 (41:40):
Of bad?

Speaker 1 (41:42):
It was good?

Speaker 4 (41:43):
Land of Bad?

Speaker 1 (41:44):
I don't know, remember yeah yeah, yeah, and he stayed
he's trying to walk. Yeah, you were the one that
told me to watch it. Yeah, he didn't leave his post.
He's like, no, I'm gonna stay.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (41:54):
No.

Speaker 1 (41:55):
The last time I saw Russell Crowe being interviewed about Gladiator,
he was still fat. I think he's hung on to him.
Yeah he has, but it wasn't for a role, you know,
he just sitting around talking. Yeah, and it was on
some sort of show or podcast or something, and he
was he's large because I did this. You know how
I remember it, because you know land the way how

(42:16):
we live for this kind of stuff. I was like,
I just know, you know. And she was like, well,
I mean you know that road's like that. I mean,
these guys they got to get into shape. I said,
have you seen Russell crow Modern Day? And she goes no.
I said, well, take a look at this. It's a
long way and I walked it over and show. She goes,
that's not Russell Crowe. I said, it absolutely is. Yeah,
well thanks, there he is.

Speaker 7 (42:35):
You know, we don't have many movie rights at the house. Yeah,
I don't have them wild side by side, So you
couldn't even.

Speaker 1 (42:41):
Enjoy the movie you came. You couldn't even enjoy the
movie because you you struggling. Well, now, Rick telling me
this guy wouldn't cast, Now I got to see if
I yes the whole time, That's what I'm thinking, Rick Speedy.
Is we say we're talking about a series on Netflix.
If I give it just a slight bit of negative,
should I just stop watching it? I mean, want you know,
I mean, in my wasting my tongue, I'm.

Speaker 7 (43:01):
Well, the two of you, you know, wouldn't y'all what
y'all say matters like to other people?

Speaker 4 (43:07):
It does?

Speaker 19 (43:08):
You know?

Speaker 4 (43:09):
Words matter.

Speaker 1 (43:11):
Before you Yeah? Yeah, what you're saying, you're influential to
other people. How you wield that weapon. You can't just
say and leave the room.

Speaker 11 (43:21):
I know.

Speaker 1 (43:23):
You kind of fired about series. That's it. That's over
watching it and all you can think of the whole
time is this miscasts the whole time. But that's it
wasn't my conscious how I felt about it. I started
like digging it a little bit and I'm like, and
then something else comes out. I'm like, Greg would make
fun of that. Okay, So now did you did your
wife Terry feel like the casting was perfectly fine?

Speaker 7 (43:46):
I still to this I have not brought it up. Okay,
I just see you that one to myself because I
didn't want to ruin it for her.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
Well you do that all y'all would have been tell
what I am?

Speaker 2 (43:54):
Right?

Speaker 1 (43:55):
So, now that the movie's over, could you do this.

Speaker 4 (43:59):
Ride rho?

Speaker 1 (44:00):
You really can't. You can't, by the way.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
Yeah, how was the casting of the Rhino?

Speaker 12 (44:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (44:03):
It was pretty good. Did that bother you the fact
that something looked too fake? Yeah? No, I was all right,
I just watched.

Speaker 7 (44:08):
Sometimes I just watch a movie because I want to
relax and be entertained.

Speaker 1 (44:11):
I don't critique every second of Well, you know what
Greg said, we wish we could be gollible to it'd
be a better ball time.

Speaker 7 (44:17):
I don't know that it's gullible. I think I think
it's trying to relax. He gets in his mind, just
be entertained and not think are you not entertained? So
I asked her to go home today and ask Terry,
just don't have to make a big deal of it.
So how'd you think the guy that was the gladiator
in that movie?

Speaker 1 (44:34):
Now you think that actor was a good cast? I
have to say it with that look on my face,
look like you're not concerned like my face. Did you
look like you just tasted something.

Speaker 5 (44:44):
It's not like that.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (44:53):
Today. So all right, before we move on, and there's
some questions we're getting to that we will address next segment.
Greg did try to watch an episode of Polo, King
of Tupolo, whatever it was called. Well, we'll talk about
that coming up right, Yeah, right now, you know, we've
got an inauguration coming Monday. I don't know if you'll

(45:14):
know about this. Yeah, so, uh deal, So you know,
we all forget that President Biden for another week less
than a week now, is is still president? We we've
forgotten he was president a long time ago, and I
think he may have as well. But he's about to
make a comment that is kind of odd since we

(45:39):
know that Trump won going away, not not even close
in the last election.

Speaker 20 (45:45):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
And now he's suggesting in this clip Adler that that
he thinks he would have beaten Trump, and also boy
thinks Kamalo would have beaten him. Yes, but but but
but she but she but she didn't? Right, they actually did?
All right? So here is here's President Biden.

Speaker 13 (46:07):
President.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
Do you regret your decision to run into re election?

Speaker 21 (46:09):
Do you think that that made it easier for your
predecessor and now become your successful I.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
Don't think so.

Speaker 20 (46:15):
I think I would have beaten Trump, could have beaten Trump.
And I think that Kama could have beaten Trump. It
would have beaten Trump. It wasn't about I thought it
was important to unify the party. And when the party
was worried about whether or not I was going to
be able to move I thought it. Even though I

(46:37):
thought I could win again, I thought it was better
to unify the party. And it was the greatest honor
in my life to be president United States. But I
didn't want to be one who caused a party that
wasn't unified to lose an election. And that's why I
stepped aside. But I was confident she could win.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
Okay, okay, all right. So there at the end he
kind of saves it because when you hear the first
part of that, he's not does anybody say you're you're
saying that you think that she will? She didn't. He's
saying he thought she would. The reason why I stepped
down is I thought she could beat Trump. Yeah, that's

(47:18):
what I thinks he could have too. Now that that
right there.

Speaker 4 (47:22):
Yeah, they kicked you out, Joe. Sorry buddy, but well
party kicked you out.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
You got a lot of money for it too. Probably.
I love when he said I didn't want a party
that wasn't unified because that might cost us the election.
That's what happened. Well, the also, this is that thing
he gets to go into that world. We've all seen
this before, you know, the team that got put on
probation and they were undefeated and they weren't allowed to
be in the playoff, and then they declare they would

(47:49):
have won it. Yeah, right, if if I had been there,
it wouldn't whatever happened wouldn't have happened. If I had
been you, I could have. So now he'll get to
say for the rest of his life, Steppanie. Now is
the best thing for his family because now they can
say for the rest of their lives, well, he would
have won. If they had have done that, he would
have beat Trump. And so so he's in that category.

(48:10):
Also Video two Peter Doocey and Kareem Jean Pierre. We've
enjoyed their little romance over the last couple of years,
we really have and watching their goodbye yesterday and I
saw this clip yesterday. A lot of you may have
if not here it is, uh and here he is

(48:31):
kind of doing the in another week we're done, our
guess at this time two weeks when he said it, right,
So here is Peter Deucy kind of doing a goodbye
to press secretary of Kareem John Pierre. Here we go.

Speaker 19 (48:45):
If I don't see you again, well you know in
the brief thank you for all Wait you could have
stopped taking the hard questions years ago, and he didn't.

Speaker 4 (48:55):
So we appreciate that over two years.

Speaker 13 (48:57):
My friend, this is a let's say, one last dance, right,
I don't know how I'm going to fill my my
dance card? Now? How will I fill that void without you?

Speaker 11 (49:09):
You told me.

Speaker 16 (49:12):
So?

Speaker 10 (49:12):
There some rumors in here.

Speaker 19 (49:14):
I guess, goodness down, So a week from now, it's
all over. Yes, between next Monday and twenty eighty eight,
who's the leader of the democratic Goodness?

Speaker 13 (49:34):
Wow, that is honestly, that is for people much smarter
than I to make that assessment, that decision. Obviously voters
will decide. That is not something for me to decide.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
I could say, wow, okay.

Speaker 4 (49:48):
Wow, that was a little What was now was that
was more pleasant than I thought it would be?

Speaker 1 (49:53):
Borderline flirtatious. It was borderline one problem there. Well I
knew that. And yeah that one there's there's the cracking.

Speaker 7 (50:05):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (50:05):
I mean we were all thinking no, I mean like
bargain on the wrong tree. Well, Greg, we we all
we all may think things, we just don't say them
every time. And it appears that you and the thinking
and the saying uh kind of go uh kind of
go hand in hand. Yeah, playful fun. Right, Yeah, that's

(50:28):
that's a little.

Speaker 4 (50:29):
What's that, Paul McCartney, Stevie wonder.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
Are you talking ebony and ivory? I am, yeah. So
are y'all a little shocked that she made it as
long as she did. I know I would have I
would have thought.

Speaker 4 (50:48):
She's she's tough. I'll say that. I mean right she
uh man, I guess she's. She and I are not
the same. She and I are not the same. I
would have not continued that job.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
I'm going to go this far.

Speaker 4 (51:03):
I thinking a lot.

Speaker 22 (51:04):
I think that you got more in common than you know, small,
they got cool heir right, that's it.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
Yeah, that's that's the one. Greg, Just that's I'm sure
that's I'm sure that's all you mean. So so anyway,
but I think that I think we should consider hiring
her because honestly, trying to sell us on the product
that she just tried to sell us on, that's true.
It's nothing compared to the uphill climb of selling this product.

Speaker 14 (51:39):
Really.

Speaker 1 (51:40):
Yeah, sure, we got our we got our own challenges,
but nothing compared to what she had to come out
and do on a daily basis in the Biden administration. Real, yeah,
so so be interesting to see where she lands, y'all
think what MSNBC.

Speaker 4 (51:53):
Absolutely right, she's already got a show lined up. I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
I'm sure that Rachel Maddow is probably our cond Actually great.

Speaker 4 (52:01):
Man, she hung in there, you know she did. She
took her licks and kept on ticking.

Speaker 1 (52:18):
Top of the hour. How did Greg like the reality
series on the Elvis impersonators, The Brothers. We'll talk about
that next.

Speaker 2 (52:28):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (52:35):
As you go to the new website, and man, we're
so excited about how you know, it looks looks nice.
It's new, it's happening, it's fresh. And we've added a
little feature there called Rick's Picks U and this is
things like document you're looking for recipes y'all asked us about.
And the folks at High Level Marketing did a great job.

(52:59):
Because Greg's wife Lisa sent to us the coffee punch recipe.
It was her handwritten recipe, and you know, I kind
of expected when I sent it to the High Level
Marketing they'd be like, well, can you type this out
for us or whatever? And boom they had it up
in minutes. I thought that was funny. That was shocking.

(53:20):
You just sent them a picture of it? Yeah, can
you believe they just said that's all we need. So anyway,
so Lisa's coffee punch recipe now listed with the other recipes.
Proceed with caution. Yes, it did dear to Kill a Man. Yeah,
so you can. You can find it at rix'picks there
at rickburgesshow dot com. Okay, so everybody's asking Greg, there

(53:42):
were two assignments that the the audience gave to you,
Greg needs to watch? Is it Kings of Tupelo? I
think so something like that. These are two the King
and Tupelo, and I'm not sure what order. And they
claim to be the world's first ever Elvis impersonators. Who
are brothers. I got a question on that. They said, Guinness,

(54:03):
how was that a record? I don't know if you're
the only question, but they said that Guinness put them
in there, and I'm thinking that doesn't fit. Yep. Are
you all following me on? Anyways? But they call themselves
Double Trouble. Wasn't there an Elvis movie called Double Trouble?
I think I think they performed want to be Dressed
in a certain outfit and the other you know, all
their outfits and do they match the Elvis outfits?

Speaker 11 (54:25):
No?

Speaker 1 (54:25):
No, they want to be wearing one want to and
uh it Uh this is guys. Uh almost throw it
in there with Tiger King. I'm not I'm not hooked.
I think there's three episodes. I watched one you got
harvesting body parts and sold on the black market. What

(54:48):
someone sending because they start at the beginning all this
news reports of somebody sending these uh envelopes to Washington
into a center's office from Mississippi that's gotten ice and whatever,
some poison in it, and somehow that's tied. We ain't
pulled that in yet. They just threw it at the beginning.
But it's a really, really bizarre I'm battling two things here,
the weirdness of it. Secondly, I don't think I'm feeling

(55:13):
a little bit like maybe we're exaggerating, you know, trying
to be a character. Uh you don't think genuine article.
I don't know. Then you're you're a stickler on genuine,
genuine article. I want to see how it ties into
this terrorist thread or whatever the poisoning thing I was
telling you about. I'm not sure how they're tied to it.
Yet basically they're tied to poisoning somebody. They just showed

(55:34):
the headlines of all that at the beginning. How we
do now we show stuff and then we go back
and we brothers who are Elvis impersonators may have poisoned
someone and harvested their organs. No that he discovered that.
The that's a big conspiracy going on, one of the brothers,
and he exposed it. Okay, That's where I'm at. Now
do they stay as Elvis is going on? No, they're not.

(55:54):
They're not like when Jessco dresses as Elvis and actually
thinks is they're only when they're performing. Now they do
have the Elvis hair all the time. Yeah, even doing
this not a will No, okay, And but it's it's
bizarrero I'm gonna give it another round. I just I
just got to see. But it's a strange one, so
more more bizarre than it is funny. Yeah, it's not

(56:17):
like a Jestico or nothing like that. So far, you're
disappointed in it? Little okay, Yes, it's just hard to follow,
very hard. I won't watch it now.

Speaker 7 (56:27):
How many hell yeah, how many episodes? I think three
and you've only seen one.

Speaker 1 (56:31):
Yeah, how about this. Some people are saying stay with it. Okay,
some people saying stay with it. So but because maybe
if all that'll come together. But they you know, they
started out showing all these newscasts of these there's been
an envelope that had nice in them. I'm probably saying
that wrong. Who cares delivery?

Speaker 4 (56:46):
I think you're right?

Speaker 1 (56:47):
And that was twenty thirteen. Do y'all remember that twenty thirteen?
What about the envelopes had poison on them?

Speaker 17 (56:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (56:54):
Yeah, kind of.

Speaker 4 (56:55):
Yeah it was Obama. Somebody said Obama really and a
couple of senators.

Speaker 1 (57:00):
Center from miss tied in it because he's against the guy.
I do remember that, seems like because he named some
like funeral homes that were supposed to end on this
harvesting and selling stuff, and he' gett a little blow
back one. I don't even like that. You're awful and
all that. So tell me about them his brothers being
Elvis impersonators. That's where we're very little up to this point.
They're not. They're not as genuine article as you had hoped.

(57:23):
I can tell by the look on your face. Yeah,
not really. What about what about the Tourette's one. Have
you have you caught it yet? Have not t o
c I missed that. People said they saw that last night.
Maybe you should try that. I maybe I'm gonna finish
this just so I can finish it. But it's bizarro
right now. I mean you got you got illegal body
parts being sold, you got poisoning people, and then in

(57:44):
the middle of that, you got two guys called Double Trouble,
which is a double Elvis show, and that's where focused
them landing right there, like a little more of that.
How is their their breakdown? His brothers? Who's they are?
They one one lot older than the other, about the
same age. They're not far in a twins. One is successful,
the other probably not as successful considering all he's done

(58:05):
is a consume himself and exposing this body part thing.
Okay on the computer? And how did they do on
Double Trouble? There's a lot of I didn't really, I
guess I should have. Yeah, you know, that's a big industry,
the Elvis impersonators and all, and listen, they're considered the best.
They they get rave reviews. So did you think they're

(58:29):
Elvis act pretty showing as much they would show just
a little clip, but then they would they wouldn't stay
with it. Or do you think that's some of your
world that they got to pay royalties every time in
Elvis songs on there?

Speaker 4 (58:40):
That's surely okay, that's a great point.

Speaker 1 (58:43):
But don't you need Double Trouble more?

Speaker 8 (58:45):
I do.

Speaker 1 (58:45):
Maybe you get them more. I don't know, but somebody
like speed, he said, some are saying if you'll just
go on into episode two, get about halfway and you're there.
Did you ever take on the Whitakers? I knew that
was gonna come up on the text. Now the Whittakers
are too it's too much. Yeah, they're too much. Okay,
stop at Jessco. Don't go with Whittakers Now.

Speaker 7 (59:04):
Whittakers make you feel feel feel like guilty for even
watching it?

Speaker 1 (59:09):
Really well, okay, show scared. Yeah, it is scary.

Speaker 4 (59:14):
It's very sad.

Speaker 17 (59:15):
It is.

Speaker 1 (59:16):
It's all the guy that just goes, Yes, he does does.

Speaker 6 (59:20):
Kings of Tupelo is made by the same people that
did The Wild Wild Country about that guru with his
cult in Oregon that came on.

Speaker 1 (59:30):
Did you watch Yeah? I watched some of that and
I got bored.

Speaker 6 (59:33):
Yeah, same group is behind both of those videos. I
heard a lot about wild Wall Country. I should probably
check that out. And I'm curious about Kings of Tupelo.

Speaker 1 (59:41):
But greg Is is no, no, no, it's worth the watch.
I'm going to continue now. Now listen the guy that
the one who's who's obsessed with this conspiracy of body
part stuff. He's got a little language basic. You know
some people that cuss and it's funny with that cuss.
He's one of those. Okay, so these are the funny cussing. Yeah, yeah,
is this something about it? So you're not giving episode

(01:00:03):
one a very high rate? Well, it was. It's really
it doesn't land, It can't land the plane. It's just
all over the place. Too confusing right now too music? Yeah, okay,
all right, I mean I didn't see the body part
thing coming?

Speaker 4 (01:00:15):
Will you?

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Will you do episode two? Yeah? Okay, I'm gonna go
finish it. If it was like ten, no, but there's
three I can do three. Well, we'll be back.

Speaker 2 (01:00:28):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
The wildfires, this thing with California and the wildfirest and
we can't get enough. And she'll be riding Wi fire.
She'll be right. Yeah, wildfire that are raging in La.
How many of you, if you were honest, you're not
gonna miss the way that she governed. You're not gonna
miss her worldview. Are we kind of gonna miss Kamala

(01:00:59):
Harris commenting on things? Yes, the word silence? Are we
going to miss those a little bit? Yeah, they're just
a little side of me. I mean, I don't want
her in charge of anything, but so I just I
just wonder if I'm going to miss things like this.
So here's yeah, here's Kamala Harris. Those of you that

(01:01:21):
your life's being destroyed by a wild fire in California. Now,
there's been all kinds of stuff, and we have some
of that here of people saying this is these are
the moments where we have to look at socialism and
ask ourselves if we still dig it. Okay, Kamala wants everyone,
she wants to tell us something right at her that's
critically important. I think she used to This is critically

(01:01:44):
critically critically important.

Speaker 13 (01:01:46):
So here we go, And so it's critically important that
to the extent you can find there we go, anything
that gives you an ability to be patient in this
extremely dangerous and unprecedented crisis.

Speaker 1 (01:02:03):
That you do that, you do? I feel better? What
if my house just got burned? I got to tell you.
For a minute, I started looking again and thinking about
how bad the Vikings got beat last night, and wondering
if Bubba's okay. I know, but of course he expected it,
so he's fine. But yeah, but he knew that was
going to happen. So I mean, that's how she doesn't

(01:02:25):
draw you in at all, unless it's almost like you're
just drawn in by watching the spectacle or listening. What
did she just say? Can anybody tell me what she
just said? Important? She said, it's critically important that we
do something.

Speaker 4 (01:02:39):
You want to hear it again.

Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
Yeah, you can find anything, okay, and so.

Speaker 13 (01:02:45):
It's critically important that to the extent you can find
anything that gives you an ability to be patient in
this extremely dangerous and unprecedented crisis that you do.

Speaker 1 (01:03:02):
Now what am I looking at her? Because she's telling
me if I if I need to be patient to
the extent, you can find anything that gives you the ability.
What am I looking for? She's saying, dig deep for patients.
She's telling me to find anything that could give me
the ability to be patient. What am I looking for?

Speaker 18 (01:03:22):
You.

Speaker 4 (01:03:23):
She managed to turn the phrase be patient into a
thirty second sentence.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
That's it. And it's also one of these things I'm
really not that into it, but I'm supposed to be.
I got to come out and like I'm really caring
and use words, and I just can't force myself to
like I really care. Okay, So up next with well,
I can think about as I lost the election. That's
all I'm thinking about. That's all I can think about.
That's all I can think about it. And I had
everybody convinced, and I think I was convinced I was

(01:03:50):
actually gonna win. So that's exactly where she's at. LA
fires looking a lot like the Maui fires. Talkers are
starting because you always want to know more than you
always want to know what the TikTokers think. Right here
is someone saying, I see a lot of similarities here. Yeah,
all right, so here we go.

Speaker 2 (01:04:09):
So let me get this straight.

Speaker 18 (01:04:10):
Two months before the fire, the state depleted its water reserves.
Insurance companies have been castling his fire insurance policy. It's
like it's Maui all over again. But it's not like
the state needs to free up a whole bunch of
land to open up a new smart sea infrastructure, right,
because we haven't announced anything like that, did we. The
LA District might have announced plans to set up a
smart city by twenty twenty eight. So it's like Malley

(01:04:33):
all over again.

Speaker 1 (01:04:36):
No, all right, So now maybe Gavin Newsom following this,
this guy probably was waiting on these statements. So Gavin Newsom,
who again, I hope everybody's paying attention, any of you
that would like for him to run the country one day,

(01:04:57):
Gavin Newsom, And this is some sort of af It
feels a little marshal, this plan like the TikToker suggesting,
because remember, anytime the government sees some sort of tragedy,
they've all been taught by you know, Saul Olenski that
you you don't waste that opportunity to grab power. So
so you know, because remember a lot of times we'll

(01:05:18):
give the government power we normally would not have given
them if we get scared, panic and panic. So here
is here is Gavin Newsom talking about this out of
his own boys interviewer with NBC News.

Speaker 21 (01:05:30):
Over the course the next several years, Los Angeles will
be host to the World Cup and then the Super Bowl,
and then the Olympics. With this rebuilding effort needing to
take place. Is l A going to be ready for
all of those global events?

Speaker 8 (01:05:44):
My humble position, And it's it's and it's it's not
just being naively optimistic. That only reinforces the imperative moving
quickly doing in the spirit of collaboration, cooperation.

Speaker 1 (01:05:57):
President of the United States Donald Trump, to.

Speaker 8 (01:05:59):
His credit, was helpful in getting the Olympics to the
United States of America to get it down here in LA.

Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
We thank him for that.

Speaker 8 (01:06:06):
This is an opportunity for him to shine, for this country,
to shine, for California and this community to shine. The
opportunity with all of that uh and all that opportunity
and that pride and spirit that comes from not just
hosting those three iconic games and venues, but also the opportunity,
I think to rebuild at the same time. And that's
why we're already organizing a Marshall plan. We already have

(01:06:28):
a team of looking and reimagining l A two point zero.

Speaker 4 (01:06:32):
Oh, it sounds pretty good.

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
He couldn't stop saying the word opportunity. Yeah, and the
critically important they look like when those people signed songs
he did at the end, he was doing the hand motioning,
oh God, isn't awesome? God? He ran, but he would

(01:06:56):
have been saying, our government isn't awesome.

Speaker 13 (01:06:58):
Government.

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
We read, We grabbed and he stared and can we
take your he went? He did, he did. What was
the other one that you were doing was when you
were doing the rose is on a Napoleon dynamite when
they're everybody's forgot about North Carolina.

Speaker 4 (01:07:21):
Sure they're actually unprecedented, right, not the fires.

Speaker 7 (01:07:25):
I saw another uh drop spot, I guess drop zone
at a at a local church and and some other
areas where they were trying to get donations to send
to North Carolina because nobody has anything.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
And I'm like, wow, so everybody's just forgot about North
Oh you can't. Yeah, remember the government and the headlines
when there's you know, anything that's catastrophic for a state.
They do pick their favorites every every every single time. Uh,
just quickly before we get to the break, and we'll
take some phone calls. Three e Uh. You gotta love

(01:07:57):
this guy that stayed at the Palisades and and with
only a garden hose could save his house. I mean
a garden hose is how he saved the house come on.

Speaker 23 (01:08:07):
Yeah, by my mother and father in nineteen sixty and
I lived here my whole life, So there's a lot
of memories here, and I think I owed it to
them as well to try my best to save it.
Some things in life are worth fighting for. I mean,
if I were to lose his house, it would be
very difficult to afford to be able to build a

(01:08:27):
new house to pay the enormous property taxes they have here.

Speaker 1 (01:08:33):
Where what would I do?

Speaker 24 (01:08:35):
Here's he's going to talk about the hun When I
was out here holding the house down and getting ready,
and when the houses started to burn, I didn't see
one single fire truck out here at all.

Speaker 1 (01:08:48):
Zero.

Speaker 23 (01:08:48):
If they had some fire trucks, just don't put a
squirt here, a squirt there, and kept an eye on things,
all these houses would be here.

Speaker 21 (01:08:55):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:08:57):
I mean he was able to do it with a
with a garden hose. The fire departments probably could have
done it. As far as saving the houses looks a
lot like mowing. Hell oh great guy, Well you went
and got.

Speaker 4 (01:09:11):
Those big events coming.

Speaker 14 (01:09:13):
What do we do.

Speaker 4 (01:09:13):
Oh let's burn it down first, That's what they said.

Speaker 1 (01:09:17):
Now, okay, yeah, here's our number eight, Day eight, the
number six, and then big Vox. Well chat with you America.
All lines available right after this.

Speaker 2 (01:09:27):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 1 (01:09:34):
Let's go to Harris out of the great State of Michigan. Harris,
Welcome to the Rick Burgess Show. Go ahead, Hey boy,
how you doing? Hey doing great? Harris? How about you?

Speaker 25 (01:09:46):
I'm doing good.

Speaker 9 (01:09:47):
Hey, So I wanted to say thank y'all so much
for coming up too, for coming up so Coldwater Michigan.

Speaker 10 (01:09:53):
I do have to tell you that those great men
of God and cold Water are not necessarily represent that
is of everybody over here in West Michigan. Now they
do Ohio, and they do, uh, they do East Michigan
really well. But uh, but we're not.

Speaker 9 (01:10:09):
We're not necessarily going to ask how your mammy is.

Speaker 10 (01:10:11):
But you know, it's not necessarily representative of them. Everything
that we are over here in West Michigan.

Speaker 1 (01:10:17):
Well, you know, you know some of that yesterday too,
was you know, comedic licensed tongue in cheek. I do
love when the cultures. I think one of the things
that makes our country so great is that you can
get so many variety of culture, uh, you know, in
the different states and even inside the states based on
where you are to your point in the state. Now,

(01:10:38):
those guys were great, they were outstanding hosts, and we
really hit it off. The stakes were great. Uh and
uh and we had a really good time. But uh
it was But now now bones asking for sweet tea,
Now that that didn't exaggerate that at all. That was
straight up yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:10:55):
So you could have gone to McDonald's and gotten terrible
sweet team there.

Speaker 1 (01:10:59):
Oh do they have Oh I guess, yeah, Well thank you.
How do you how do you get the show, Harris?
Where you are?

Speaker 9 (01:11:04):
I'm a podcaster, so I had to listen yesterday and
then call in today just to uh, just to make
sure that all of our all of our worship leaders
aren't you know, ninety plus we let them leave worship.

Speaker 1 (01:11:17):
Now, look, let me tell you. You know this, Harris.
You know this because apparently it's sounds like you you're
you're really involved in in your church. There's nothing like
men's ministry. I mean, I keep thinking to myself, I've
got a book coming out this year, uh that it's
a topic that that I've really been wanting to to
take on. But there's one still I've got sitting over

(01:11:37):
on the shelf my life in Men's Ministry Stories from
the Road. There there is nothing like men's ministry. I mean,
if you take on men's ministry, get ready for anything.
Uh and it is uh and and I love every
minute of it. So so thank you, Harris. I appreciate it. Yes, sir,
thank you. Hi buddy. See Uh, let's continue.

Speaker 23 (01:11:58):

four seven w z z K Jim. Welcome to the
Rick Burgess Show. Go ahead.

Speaker 25 (01:12:08):
Thanks, Wen.

Speaker 14 (01:12:09):
I was gonna just mention this to you. Now, I
haven't done any personal research because it was on the internet,
so I know it's true.

Speaker 1 (01:12:14):
You don't have to worry about it, of course.

Speaker 14 (01:12:16):
But there was a guy that was showing the proposed
new high speed rail system and the fire actually followed
the path of the high speed rail system. And then
he went back and showed in Malibi. He was Malibu
where they had the fires before there was a high
speed rail system proposed there, and that that the path

(01:12:37):
of that fire followed the rail system. So you know,
it may not all be just a brand new Los
Angeles could be something like that.

Speaker 1 (01:12:43):
Easy, gim Now you got Altadler started up in there.

Speaker 4 (01:12:49):
Yeah, all right, exactly there.

single video on dealing with Maui today. Uh, let's go

go to the Free State of Florida. Go right ahead, Keith, Hey, Rick.

Speaker 25 (01:13:25):

Speaker 1 (01:13:31):
Oh hey, let me tell you get your bulldoze round.
I'll get mine. We'll say.

Speaker 25 (01:13:37):
Say, but I wrote a song, man, It's called Rick

Speaker 1 (01:13:41):
You've written a song.

Speaker 25 (01:13:45):
Yeah, and I can't sing now, so bear with me.

Speaker 1 (01:13:47):
Are you sure you want to take this song?

Speaker 14 (01:13:51):
Yeah?

It's a hard room, you know that. Okay, Hey, bring it,

Rick without Buba.

Speaker 12 (01:14:19):
Oh there is one other rick without Buba.

Speaker 1 (01:14:22):
Okay, Keith, I've never seen anybody reassure us and let
us down quite so much? Is what just happened? That
that was Uh, that was about as bad as it
could be. And and and really not even a lot

(01:14:43):
of effort. I mean the effort there even seemed just
a little bit like maybe he was even going to
talk about something else and then change the topic right
before he went on. So maybe that was the joke. Yeah.
I warned Keith if he was going to go there
that he would have to pay the price from the audience. John,

(01:15:03):
go ahead in the room.

Speaker 12 (01:15:05):
Hey, you guys were talking about it enjoying football with
or without rooting for a team.

Speaker 9 (01:15:10):
Yes, of course there's more fun when you root for
a team. That that emotional thrill ride you fabricate for
yourself is all the fun.

Speaker 14 (01:15:17):
The game itself is just stupid.

Speaker 1 (01:15:20):
The value great point.

Speaker 4 (01:15:22):
Great points.

Speaker 1 (01:15:23):
Yeah, I know what you mean, But then there's also that,
you know, why do I care so much? Why is
this bothering me? It feels good that I don't care
which team wins or loses, But I understand your point.
Let's go to Brad out of the great state of Mississippi. Brad,
Welcome to the show.

Speaker 11 (01:15:43):
Hey guys, I don't know if y'all have covered this
on Monday. I didn't really get to listen, but I
just want to talk about how college game Day is
essentially committing elderly abuse with with that old man. I mean,
I feel so bad watching him almost fall as he's
trying to do that little I mean, I felt I
thought I was about to witness a death and a
broken hip on TV.

Speaker 1 (01:16:05):
I don't even know Speedy. I don't know how you
watch it. That was tough.

Speaker 7 (01:16:09):
All the time, I'm thinking, don't let him fall, don't
let him fall some of the luckily he didn't, but wow, some.

Speaker 1 (01:16:14):
Of the comments from the text line, Uh, the last
thing that Keith just tried was so painful. I zipped
myself up in my zipper.

Speaker 2 (01:16:30):
This is the Rick Burgess show.

Speaker 1 (01:16:37):
Coming up on Monday. You know, there's always this thing
now where all these artists, you know, they try that
it's supposed to mean something. You know, what you perform
at where you are, We're gonna we're gonna assess. You know,
if you're an artist and Trump's playing your song, you
have to act like you want him to stop, even

(01:16:57):
though you love the royalties coming in, and you have
to say, well, I won't be any part of that.
I won't do anything for Trump. Are you a little surprised?
I was pleasantly that Carrie Underwood has accepted the invite
to play at the Trump inauguration.

Speaker 4 (01:17:14):
Very surprised.

Speaker 1 (01:17:15):
I was too, because it seemed like on some other
really big issues that the Oklahoma Conservative views and even
views of the church, which she obviously says she's part of,
that some of her views begin to drift to the left.
I was a little surprised pleasantly that she accepted the invite.

(01:17:41):
And it's just kind of saying I don't really care
what people think about it. Yeah, so I'm not going
to apologize for it. Okay, I like that to Babba,
I mean, to Speedy's point, Carrie Underwood says she doesn't
care about any black backlash, or maybe even blacklash that
she has faced. That's when you've upset black people. Everybody

(01:18:02):
knows about that. But anyway, Carrie Underwood is doubling down
uh and says she will perform. I love when people
that I saw this happening out on some of the
social medium is when people go ahead and put up
a scenario that didn't even happen. Beyonce announces if she
was invited, she wouldn't go. Well, you weren't invioted, not

(01:18:26):
really cares. I don't know if that would have happened.
I tell you that's a no.

Speaker 21 (01:18:32):
But I was.

Speaker 1 (01:18:33):
I was surprised by this that yeah, and and and
I'm actually glad. So so it looks like Carrie Underwood
will be there now. There's still is inbody checked with
Dan Bongino lately. Is he still Is he still concerned
about the security and concerned about the situation.

Speaker 14 (01:18:50):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:18:52):
I'm not up on him. Every day.

Speaker 4 (01:18:54):
The parade is still on. Everything is still on.

Speaker 7 (01:18:56):
Yeah, that's what I just google the schedule just to
see the events and all this we got. On Saturday,
we have the reception and fireworks at the Trump National
Golf Club there in Virginia. It says we have cabinet reception,
Vice President's dinner that Saturday, rethlaying cemetery ceremony at the

(01:19:21):
tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Sunday, and then Trump
is going to deliver remarks on Sunday at three pm
Make America Great Again victory rally at Capitol One Arena
in Washington.

Speaker 1 (01:19:34):
I think that's what Dan Bongino was also worried about. Yes,
he was.

Speaker 7 (01:19:37):
He hated that, and we got a candidlight dinner that night.
And then Monday is inauguration Day and it starts early,
and there's just a slew of stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
Plan. Well, I like what Carrie Underwood is saying. She's saying,
I'm doing this for America. It is an honor to
be invited to be part of an inauguration and the
passing of power and a constitutional republic. This is for
the country, not for Trump. Mmm.

Speaker 13 (01:20:05):
I like that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:06):
I think that's that's that's that's level headed. I mean,
if you know when I don't know that I would have.
You know, when when Barack Obama was president, I certainly
agreed with his his worldview and and the way he
saw the country and taxation and many are our standing
in the world all that, But if I'd had the

(01:20:27):
opportunity to go and do something at the White House,
and you know that would never happen. But if it
were to happen, say we want a championship. Okay, I go,
I go take my Yeah, absolutely, of course. My visit
to the White House. Yeah, visit with the president and
shake his hand and be respectful having a picture made

(01:20:47):
because I'm there representing the type of government that we
have in the country we have, not the individual and
and the beauty of the country is I can have
my picture made, or I can sing at a presidential
inauguration and still go out and disagree with the very
president that has been inaugurated if I want to, even

(01:21:07):
after I performed. So that's that's great. That's that's how
the country's supposed to work.

Speaker 4 (01:21:13):
It's just history, you know. You know I went to
the White House. That's something you should always be proud
to say, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:21:20):
So, So anyway that that is going to go on,
no matter how many people may be upset. She's also
this year going back to American Idol as a judge.
Oh really, carry Carrie going to have a busy year.
Is she a permanent or a guest judge? Uh, She's
going to be a judge for American Idol and now

(01:21:40):
it's performing at the inauguration. They're calling this a busy
year for Carrie Underwood. Uh, and she's actually very proud
of the things she's doing. You know, When I see
things like that, and I remember we talked about with
Steve Harvey sometimes and I know how difficult it is,
and we're on such a smaller scale, but the things
that we opportunities to do and trying to balance all that.

(01:22:03):
When I see people at the highest level, okay, which
we are not, but at the highest level, I've got tours,
I've got people pressuring me for another album, I've got
photo shoots, I've got appearances, and then they take on
something else, like I'm also going to be a judge
on American Idol and I got to shoot a whole

(01:22:25):
season of that. You just you just wonder how in
the world that they make all that work. I mean,
and I know they have budgets to where they can
have nannies and they can you know, have staff with them,
and you know, they they've got you know, like I remember,
and I always respected Rush Limball for saying this, Unlike

(01:22:46):
Oprah when when Russe Limball was battling his weight issues
and he got them, he had some success. I love
that he went on the air and said, I'm really
not going to go into all this because in my
world world, I can afford to have a chef who
prepares my meals for me and puts out on the

(01:23:07):
table what I'm supposed to be eating, and not everybody
can do that. If I didn't have that, i'd probably
I probably could not have gotten to where I am.
That's what the turning point was for me. So I
think they do have access to you know, nutrition, probably
physicians that are with them and help, So I understand

(01:23:28):
all that, but it still is a lot. It's quite
a schedule, and sometimes I wonder how they do it,
and especially the old days where they put you out
there on the road and you'd be gone and couldn't
even come back. I know a lot of them gotten
to the point where they make so much money now
they can go rest, huh and then fly back out.
They don't just go out and stay, but some just

(01:23:52):
play weekends. Yeah, yeah, but how about this. It's a
lot of work to be on a season of a
current show. Yeah, it is on top of everything, on
top of it.

Speaker 4 (01:24:02):
Yeah, you got Carrie underwod Luke, Bryan Lionel, Richie and
Ryan Seacrest. That's there's your crew right there. For twenty
twenty five.

Speaker 1 (01:24:08):
Yeah, that's very good.

Speaker 4 (01:24:10):
Season twenty three by the way, Wow he's in twenty three.

Speaker 1 (01:24:13):
Wow about that? Okay, there we go. So speaking of that,
it's been interesting to watch the world of Cam Newton
and what he's doing. Now have you seen this latest
thing saying that series got a hat on? Well on
what we're gonna show next? You better leave the hat

(01:24:34):
So we'll be back right after this.

Speaker 2 (01:24:39):
This is the Rick Burgess Show.

Speaker 14 (01:24:54):
How about it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:55):
Welcome back to a brand new show. Come on, all right,
So working our way back, we've already taken a spin
on the wonderful will of Bundles. Bits and bugs could

(01:25:16):
happen again today, so stand by for that. Already had
a winner to come watch a show this year? All right.
So relief factor has been around in my life for
quite a while now, and love it, love it, love it.
An all natural response to the inflammation issues that come

(01:25:36):
with aging, over exertion, whatever the case may be. If
you have at the root of your problem our old nemesis, inflammation,
relief factor is the answer, and it's an all natural answer,
and it goes to the root of the problem. That's
why we do the quick start pack for nineteen ninety five.

(01:25:59):
That's three weeks because it's not going to do like
some of the other over the counter stuff, or it's
not their masking pain. If it's inflammation, is going to
the root of the pain, and then it's going to
solve the problem once and for all less than a
dollar a day nineteen ninety five fight pain naturally, not

(01:26:19):
stop masking it temporarily. So go to Rick Burgessshow dot
com under sponsors that go directly to relieffactor dot com
and find the answer there. So all right, So other things,
I'm still laughing at people texting and emailing comments about
Keith who claims he could out drive Gary the bulldozer man, Hey, dank, thanks,

(01:26:43):
he can get those up and ready to go. And
he made an attempt at a new song for the show,
and it was so ugly watching some of the comments,
people who say that a number two pencil in the ear,
please don't do that would have been and then and
then my favorite, my new favorite, uh he he might

(01:27:05):
be able to out drive Gary with the bulldozer. We'd
have to see. But I'll tell you one thing, Gary
could kick his button song right, Hey, I wrote a
few songs for Little Gwen that's not too bad, and
you know, and I like them. I mean, you know,
I sing them to her sometimes.

Speaker 12 (01:27:20):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:27:20):
It's all that thing, you know, like too less and
lonely people. Two less lonely people in the.

Speaker 17 (01:27:29):
World wind.

Speaker 1 (01:27:31):
And I'm going to be made out of all the
winds in the world. You can't believe you man. Since
you bringing up Gary performance, somebody confirmed was he really
playing that piano that he put out during Christmas? It's
a good question when it comes to Gary. I mean,

(01:27:53):
you know, I don't know. I don't know a lot
of songs, but I know I can play the Black Cleaves.

Speaker 4 (01:27:58):
I went back and watched it, and I think that's
really him playing.

Speaker 1 (01:28:02):
By the way, I can play it pretty good. Just
for not a lot of songs, but I got that one.

Speaker 4 (01:28:09):
I was I was checking to see if he was
faking with you, and you agree.

Speaker 1 (01:28:13):
I mean, I was like, wow. I had a conversation
with him about it, and of course, in true Gary form,
he left it kind of open ended, like so I
didn't know whether he wants you know, you never know
which way he's going. Is he trying to trick me
by thinking that me thinking he's fooling everybody and look
like good he can fool everybody? Or is he fooling everybody?
Thinking he can play?

Speaker 21 (01:28:32):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:28:32):
So here dog? Can we play?

Speaker 11 (01:28:34):
This?

Speaker 1 (01:28:34):
Is there anything?

Speaker 11 (01:28:35):
I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:28:35):
This is Gary at Christmas?

Speaker 4 (01:28:38):
Christmas? Look, that's him, one of the dogs.

Speaker 10 (01:28:46):
She's the cold into another one.

Speaker 4 (01:28:49):
It's like Elton John a little Christmas.

Speaker 19 (01:28:54):
That's okay.

Speaker 4 (01:29:01):
Yeah, he's really doing that's really doing it. That's him.

Speaker 1 (01:29:09):
It's scary.

Speaker 4 (01:29:10):
Really, he's really doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:29:13):
How much I wish you would sing it so badly?
You got sunglasses and a son I had, mm hmm.
See his thing to me was adler your.

Speaker 25 (01:29:24):
There's one of the dogs they know on the phone.

Speaker 1 (01:29:30):
I did y'all not want him to go shine holding
that look, you know, all like when he was supposed
with looking on his saying all these sprout I mean sprout,
you know, like the main shine off like nich Rick Nick.

(01:29:53):
I mean, I guess the next Christmas, I guess we
need to bring me here let him. I didn't think
the I ain't trying to put out everybody, but I mean,
I can do shout at night if you want me to.

Speaker 4 (01:30:06):
What can't he do my goodness, he's making tables. He's
making turkey, gusts, yes, cook, he's making salad.

Speaker 1 (01:30:13):
I like a little bit of salad. Okay, I would
like for him to set up in here. I didn't
know that was available to.

Speaker 14 (01:30:22):
I did not know that.

Speaker 1 (01:30:24):
I didn't know that was a I didn't know that
was available for that. Gary could play something about I
just can't quite buy in yet. I think he says
so many times, I don't know what he's doing.

Speaker 4 (01:30:34):
Was that John Legend or was that Billy Joel?

Speaker 1 (01:30:38):
My goodness, hey, I can do panel man Jane made
a song. I'm rod Man Christ shame me. You know,
I'm talking to Davy that's still in the navy. Give
me that. And I was talking to Davy. You know
he's still in the Navy, and that may he probably
will be for life. In the piano, it sounds like

(01:31:03):
Carnival in the bcaphone swabs. I want to Greg's kob.

Speaker 7 (01:31:09):
I want us to play him singing, I mean playing again,
and then Rick singing like it's him. Okay, well he's
you know, I will say that.

Speaker 1 (01:31:17):
It's making me believe he's not exactly I mean, he's
he's playing the notes right at her. But I mean
he seems to be a little bit cautiously going through
them like he's you know, I mean he's not, he's
not wearing it out. But yeah, I mean said the
song that my mama taught me when I was little,
Sign at night and please you're back when he starts playing.

(01:31:41):
Okay Christmas, Okay. I wish I had playing Innauguration day
one of.

Speaker 10 (01:31:51):
The shed another one, but I wanted to play a
little little Christs.

Speaker 1 (01:31:58):
Play a little Christians. Munich. Uh, he's got a lower voice.
Here's he got a colder zone. Rick, Oh, come, and.

Speaker 17 (01:32:15):
It's right like I mean, like met chungke Mitchell.

Speaker 1 (01:32:33):
Sally. Oh my goodness, I tell you what ain't salad
is when you dogs in here, you're a bit about
it around, pitting around. You can't even have salad, not
bout somebody chun your cord. So, oh my goodness, I
saw that at one point I wasn't eaven in here.

(01:32:57):
Rick had left us, and so I can't wait to
tell him that Keith said he could drive better than him.
Oh yeah, you tell Key from Florida. He he thinks
he can get the chill and can and not drive
me and come on, I'm sure I'm singing and play
panty better than he can't.

Speaker 6 (01:33:17):
If anybody can take the top off a coke bottle,
that you win. Have you seen people do that with
the bulldozer?

Speaker 1 (01:33:22):
Uh? No, I have not, I have for real, Okay,
but I.

Speaker 4 (01:33:27):
Cleaned it up. It was actually beer beer bottle, but
you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:33:30):
Yeah, sure, yeah, sure, top off anything? Sure, okay, No,
I've never seen that. Of course I'm Baptist. It wouldn't
make any sense, right, all right, bottom of the hour. Hey,
we can't go on together. It's just me is mine?
I need him in here playing. Yes, we'll be right back.

Speaker 2 (01:33:55):
This is the Rick Burgess Show, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:34:02):
So I mentioned we're working some other things, some of
your ideas you're coming up now with the new added
thing to Gary impression is now the singing because of
his piano playing. And you know this year we're bringing
back just not at the end of the show, but
we're bringing back as an option on the wheel of
bundle bits and bucks. So one of the bits that

(01:34:25):
can land on, Helium Boy is on that wheel. You know,
Helium Boy is back. You know Healing Boy. Really, Helium
Boy was the very first radio cohosts Averhead before Bubba. Yeah.
When I was first doing the show by myself in
the early days, even afternoons or mornings, Helium Boy was there.

Speaker 7 (01:34:46):
It was like a little character Helium Boy question. Yeah,
so when did you know that Helium Boy could make
an appearance? And that was something that I mean, was
that something you he would always do and he would
appear like before you started radio? Did you know that
voice worked or it?

Speaker 1 (01:35:04):
Actually it started with our classmate Scott Putt. Chase did
it and we were in the lunch room and he
I noticed that he could do that. He couldn't speak
as clear, but but he would just go blah blah blah.
And I never knew what he was doing. I'm like,
what is he doing? And he was like and he

(01:35:26):
would just do that, just make that sounds like saying Bill.
It is he was saying that because you know Bill
came from That was Greg and our friends that came
from Marvin Acular that's Calhoun County. Yeah, that's like somebody
trying to be a Bill. So so I just thought, well,
how is he doing that? And I just kept working
at it. Greg Greg can do a version of Greg

(01:35:48):
Can do a version of it. He's got a little
bit of it. Yeah you didn't know what boys, older brother,
it's too low you follow it? Go so hey back.
So anyway, so so when it was so then when

(01:36:10):
I first started doing radio, I don't know why, I've
been some bizarre idea I was. I was goofing off
doing it. And uh, Scott Morgan was the midday guy,
and he was very straight laced. I caught him Howard
Howard Spray. Yeah, he looked like a young Howard Spray
and uh and he's the one that I locked out

(01:36:30):
of the studio that time. And they came back in
and played the live version of Doctor Love on an
adult adult contemporary slash oldie station.

Speaker 17 (01:36:37):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:36:38):
Well, and he was always fun to mess with and
and something about me doing that voice slay him. He liked,
he loved it, and so he's and one day he
said out loud helium Boy, and I was like, oh,
that's funny, is that? So he goes do the healing
boy and I was like, helium boy. He goes that's yeah,
that's what I call that. And I was like okay.

(01:36:58):
So so then I thought to myself, but look, you
know when you know. This is the early days of
me trying to do radio. And I got the Johnny
Jack Voye song, you know, and I'm Alabama's out the
Last Outlaw Afternoon Extravagance, which then goes the morning at
Stravaganza and all that, and so so I was like, well,

(01:37:20):
I need stuff to do. And in those days, I mean,
you might be giving away a pizza, you know, we
give away a couple of pizzas from the custom pizza
or something. And so I was like, how can I
what what can I what can I do to give
away you know, another lunch at Betty's barbecue, you know.
And so I thought, well, you remember when all that
fails and contests and radio, you go to trivia. And

(01:37:42):
so I developed a character called Trivia Man, and and
it was and I went in there. I even went
into the production room because there was no voice guy
that like we had, like we got the great Ken Osborn.
Now we've had others, John Pleacy back in the day,
but so we didn't have any of that. So I
went in and remember on those tapes, real to real tapes,
you could slow them down and make yourself sound like

(01:38:03):
a voice gown, you know, and so I actually did
a trivia man. You know this kind of they made
it real low and then and in trivia man, like
all superheroes had to have a sidekick, okay, and so
the side kit was Healing Boy. And so if you
missed the question healing woe would dog you. And so
that so then when Bubba and I started doing the
show together, I just brought that in and we started

(01:38:26):
incorporating that in and then it got Then I hit
that deal where I almost lost my voice. And still
I don't think. I'm just so goofy. I didn't realize
that me doing this for a living was almost over,
and I didn't even realize how serious it was. Well,
when those vocal cords got damaged, you can't do that.
Healium Boy won't work, Joe, the car wash won't work, okay,

(01:38:48):
because you can't find that place in your voice. It's
not there. Somebody's called it secondary vocal cords. It's how
like your Brian what's his name in ac dc W,
what's his name? Smith? Brian Johnson, Brian Johnson, when you
sing like that, those are secondary vocal cords you're using.
And so that's where all this comes from. That of course,
you know, Joe, the carwash comes from Falsetta, That's where

(01:39:11):
that comes from, you know, and all that. But when
your voice isn't working right and it's not performing, those
ranges are gone. And so I was raspy. You know,
you remember how it sounded. Is there's years yeah, a
little little section of best of us where it's like yeah,
yeah and so yeah and so for a while all

(01:39:35):
those voices were retired and so and then Heliuing Boy
this never made his way back into anything but the
big year ender and twas not before Christmas, almost like
a nod to a classic of the past.

Speaker 11 (01:39:50):
And uh.

Speaker 1 (01:39:50):
And of course the whole Healing Boy thing is that
he's always believed that he made the show. He made,
you know, my whole radio career and so so then
now he has got an older brother, so so now yeah,
so now he's back on there. But what's got everybody
doing this? Shows you how long these people have listened
to us in various forms. Is there somebody is thinking

(01:40:13):
of the Healing Boy thing because and it used to
slay we We used to do Healing Boy sings, the hits,
and so I wouldn't and so I would do the
other one right. So now, now that's that's a long
way home to a duet between Gary and Healing Boy. Yeah,
I need Gary singing the hits. Yeah right, oh, Gary

(01:40:34):
singing the hits. If we don't put that together, that's
got it. Hey, she packed my bags. Let's not free
fly eat come on, you know, because I'm a rocky man,
burn out to fe like Mitch alone. We need to sing.

Speaker 7 (01:40:52):
We need to send ken osburn like you know, you know,
call now it's available one eight hundred blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (01:40:58):
Gary sings the hit you Todd warners, that's exactly we
didn't do that again.

Speaker 7 (01:41:09):
That would be Justin Brown voiced I think the first
one diod Friend of the show, still in the business.

Speaker 1 (01:41:15):
Uh, but when you can, we could do greatest hits,
or we could do like Saturday Night Live used to
do too, and we could do Gary sings, Elton John,
Gary sings you know, any kind of artist you can
come on with. You go that route too, you know.
Now you can tell everybody when this is your song,
and you can tell everybody and this one's for you

(01:41:39):
from the tractor to the mic. Gary the bulldozer Man
sings the hits. You don't bring me Sally. All right,
So let's do the Cam Newton things. So this is
a celebrity reality the TV show. And is this some

(01:42:02):
sort of military can you do what the military does
kind of thing? Yeah, they got these military guys and
there they like yell at you and stuff. Yeah you
have different.

Speaker 7 (01:42:09):
Stuff seasons, right yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's the third
special Forces.

Speaker 1 (01:42:14):
I think special.

Speaker 4 (01:42:15):
Forces like the toughest test or something.

Speaker 1 (01:42:16):
And that's really hard. Let me just see it looks
really hard. And so Cam has decided to do this.
Uh and now he's not wearing one of those pilgrim hats, right, no,
in a weird way? All right? So can I pot
the audio up?

Speaker 9 (01:42:29):
Or no?

Speaker 4 (01:42:29):
Can and I'll come in and out.

Speaker 1 (01:42:30):
Okay, all right, So what he's about to transfer? He's
on a helicopter.

Speaker 6 (01:42:35):
Yes, he's on like a speedboat, pontoon, speedboat whatever, and
he's about to jump from the boat to the helicopter
as both crews down the waterway here.

Speaker 4 (01:42:44):
Okay, and he jumps and he boom makes it. Now
he's got to pull himself up. So he's now it's
a big man. Having to pull himself up is a
large dude having to pull up onto the.

Speaker 1 (01:42:56):
Sure going on there. He's really large.

Speaker 6 (01:43:01):
There is a there is another little tie right there,
you see there, So I think that was the game
changer pulled himself.

Speaker 11 (01:43:07):
He did do it.

Speaker 4 (01:43:09):
He did, Yeah, he did get it done. Now he
screams right here, so he cut.

Speaker 1 (01:43:20):
They didn't like, they don't like the raw when you
get there. Did he just get a cut? The screaming
from the sergeant or whatever the drill sergeant that, yeah,
he kind of left heard something already. Is that Stephen Baldwin.
There's so many it looks like, Yeah, I saw the one.
I think would I think Dwight Howard was in it.

(01:43:41):
I think it was one last year. That last year
was last year.

Speaker 7 (01:43:44):
Yeah, And I noticed that a lot of them, they
they just go, I can't do anymore because maybe it's
a fear of heights or some phobia they have and
they're like, I'm out.

Speaker 1 (01:43:55):
But then some it's just too hard. But but isn't
it why you're here to overcome those things?

Speaker 23 (01:43:59):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:43:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:44:01):
Are you always surprised when Cam yells and it's like
it's not like it's like it's like, yeah, here it
is a good.

Speaker 1 (01:44:09):
Yeah, yeah, I didn't like it. Yeah, I expected. Yeah,
that's a large man to I know in.

Speaker 4 (01:44:18):
The NFL too. He remember, he was like, I'm back.

Speaker 17 (01:44:21):
I'm back.

Speaker 4 (01:44:23):
When he remember he did, That's what he said. I'm
looking at it. I'm looking at it.

Speaker 6 (01:44:30):
Didn't say I'm looking at like that, y'all, I'm looking
it up. This is when he came back as hot
for the scream for the Carolina Panthers.

Speaker 1 (01:44:39):
It was a little hot pitch.

Speaker 5 (01:44:40):
It was here we go, we apologize. I apologize, Okay,
Chris Adler An apology.

Speaker 25 (01:44:52):
Was he was he kidding around going on?

Speaker 1 (01:44:54):
I think that's his yell.

Speaker 20 (01:44:55):
He just didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:44:57):
If you take that and then put that together, it's
not a good cases.

Speaker 6 (01:45:01):
Okay, I'm sorry to cams. Look, he's the only reason
why I have a national championship. Okay, So I'm a fan.

move right there when I went.

Speaker 16 (01:52:23):
Turn.

Speaker 1 (01:52:24):
I went to turn left and uh, we get a
hip pointer and uh and my steering wheel didn't go
with me.

Speaker 4 (01:52:29):
You're gonna pull a muscle in your face too.

Speaker 1 (01:52:32):
Oh yeah, you gotta have the face look when you're dancing.
As Greg has told us for years that the face
goes with it. If you gotta feel it, if you
don't have the face with planning A yeah, yeah, they're
they're saying, they're saying, that's what happens for trying to twork.
It wasn't so, by the way, I will let y'all know,

(01:53:01):
we discussed this in the break. If I had injured
myself to the point of actually needing help dancing to
uh for the love of money, okay, and and and
you know cutting, if I had been injured, then no,
you would have never known if you, no matter how
much pain looking nothing want you try to cover it up. Yeah,

(01:53:24):
and and and no and no way, no way, no,
how would it ever get officially documented that Rick got
hurt and had to had to had to get help
because he danced, was cutting, I was cutting. No way
he tried to go for him.

Speaker 7 (01:53:39):
You hid the Moonwalk from us for years because you
claimed bo Jackson with the deal. In fact, you finally
came clean. It had been similar because you'd have been
in there getting therapy and they're like, Okay, what happened. Yeah,
well that's not you can't go sl storm Friday and
I slipped something.

Speaker 1 (01:53:57):
So I don't know, but not that not Hey, Speedy
called from the spind and we all got excited about
it while dancing. Dancing entered my hip. They've got a
great texture here. This was good.

Speaker 7 (01:54:07):
Instead of Speedy's wallet wanted to be busting move. I
found it and the collar has to can choose the
moment what we danced to.

(01:55:42):
never imagined to be that of my You should finally
break it down frame by frame, No, not frame by frame,
you had the slow motion button.

Speaker 4 (01:55:54):
Let's sell it.

Speaker 1 (01:55:55):
You're you're bringing it hard, said listen. Let's all it
meant right now, it's so much more fun to be
where y'all are right now that where I am. Hey,
when when you're the person in the video, it's nothing
here as much fine, I was not even close. I
wish I was, y'all right now, you want to be
enjoying it the way here we go. At this point,
he's fired up. I look, I'm on, I look, I'm on.

(01:56:15):
You can't even tell I'm Baptists. Look at this, you know,
look at.

Speaker 10 (01:56:18):
That, and.

Speaker 1 (01:56:22):
You got shot like a deer hunting video. You see
the there walking through all that was missing, me kicking
my feet out and run off of the woods. Listen
for the Oh my gosh, listen, here's what I want
you to notice. This is a veteran of age. Notice

(01:56:44):
what I'm really doing is realizing if I don't stop
right now, I'm about to get hurt. Bad for the chair.
I went for the chair. I go any further now,
chair now, Rick, think they'll just think if you had
the father, if you hadn't been honest and said I

(01:57:06):
know you're gonna get a kicked out of this. Yes,
you didn't know what had video.

Speaker 7 (01:57:09):
Here, you know, So now I'm watching other things in
the video. You and I are going nuts with excitement.
This one here is just sitting here.

Speaker 1 (01:57:17):
Do you know you don't even care about the focused onthing?
Just gridly, I was fired up. I was worried about Rick.
Gracious so good. So you know, look the good news
is even though I got injured, I'm still not bowt legging.
So uh, let's right here. I went back to it,

(01:57:43):
honestly though, back to being a pro, back to doing
the show. Yes, I didn't wallow in it huge, probably
because I was mortified by the fact that what just
happened if you would have just failed, if I if
I would have fallen into that, what's funnier. What if
I falling No, that's us, I understand this. I'd be
doing the same thing. What y'all are doing really is

(01:58:04):
mild compared to what I would be doing if rose
were reversed. But what if I could have gotten hurt
to the point that like, I'm down here and y'all
have to fare what's wrong people in? Can you imagine?
And I'm glad that didn't happen, because it'd be a hassle.
But I wanted you to follow on that sign, to
fall off the wall land on you. Yes, oh my goodness,

(01:58:25):
what a good one. On to the board. But somehow
we stay on their exactly. Rick now understands how the
corso felt. Oh that's good, that's so good. Do you
still feel it? So he's hurt. I'm not hurt bad
just tweeted a little tweet. Look on your face is uh?
Do I am? I uncomfortable a little bit, but but

(01:58:46):

assessed it. Slightly strained, you get a little strange, slightly strained.
Got to do a little better today. So this this
conversation is coming. Uh And if you want to know
the time, when it's coming, about three thirty, ask you
what's wrong with you? Thirty local time. I'll be standing

in front of either Sean or Mike the trainer, and
that horrible conversation will take place. How's everybody? How we

And I spent the wrong wing overcompensate like you reached
too far from something? No, No, I wish I thought
of that one though. That's a pretty good one. I
was anywhere near the wheel I was over away from it. So,
how did the wheel hurt you? It didn't the wheel
