(07:13):
what they were like, boring?The parade was boring. Every they were
complaining because now the Pride Parade,because remember it is the biggest number they've
ever sold out there, and that'sgreat, super whatever you want to do.
But they they've made it very corporate. They said it's all corporate.
Everything for sale was super expensive.They said. The first band was a

(07:33):

from nineteen eighty. They want tohear their new weird whatever Noah cons music.
So and then they said this.Then she goes, oh, oh

old gay people singing acappella sat is. Isn't that why you go down there?

(08:01):
She was like, no, itwas totally boring. That she'd been

saw pack people were having fun.Okay, I'm just giving you the eighteen
year old Daughter review, which wasone word lame, boring, corporate.
Well. Mary Greenberg was on theother day. He was talking about the
concert selling out and it was atthe Big Yard downtown. But I think

(08:26):
I read an article capacity was twentythousand. Doesn't the Big Yard hold more
than twenty grand I don't know,man, I can't tell. I can't
tell. I can't I couldn't tellyou what it holds. That's where I
get the coach west, which goesHow many people were there? No sweat?
Okay, Johnny boone, Yes,yes, I was going to do

(08:46):
this at nine thirty. Oh,I'm sorry. Do we have a guest
at nine thirty to talk about thator so? No? I'm waiting to
hear back. Did we have Johnnyin studio? No, Johnny never came

morning. We were texting back andforth, and h we'll say goodbye to
him at nine thirty. What doyou think? Oh? Well, yeah,

(09:07):
I'm sorry. I was just oneof the lead stories. Man.
That's that's a big story. Yeah, we lost Johnny Boone, the godfather
of grass, at eighty years old. So okay, I did not watch
any of it, but I'm sureIan Vertree has watched every Well. He
told me he was going to watchall six games this weekend. The World
Series in College Kentucky won their firstgame against NC State on a walk off.

(09:28):
They played Texas A and M todayat at seven PM's first pitch on
seven ninety. Yeah, I can'tremember who told me that yesterday twenty eight
thousand times. Your wife, Ohyeah, that's who it was, is
my wife, Susan. Yes,that's exactly right now. The storyline that
I picked up from the from theWorld Series was the two scumbag Texas A

(09:50):
and M fans. Whoa whoa,whoa whoa what? Okay, So apparently
these two Texas A and M fanswere heckling Florida's baseball team about their tragic
death of their bat boy. Batboy was nine, I think, was
killed by his father in a murdersuicide and then the father I think burning

(10:13):
the house down. Correct, Sothese two really really good humans were standing
in the stadium hackling the Florida dugoutabout their dead wow shoes. The coach's
current wife is the mother of thatboy. Correct, yes, so,

(10:37):
Omaha police said, and I don'tknow if they could ever do that.
They're like, they obviously escorted themout of the stadium. They are never
allowed to go to another World Seriesgame in Omaha. And apparently the Oman
police officer were quoted as we're notletting them in city limits. I don't
know if you could do this ornot. Can you do that? I
don't know if you could do that. This isn't Rambo where you're just like
they drop them off at the endand they turn around over Johnny, It's

(11:01):
over, Johnny. So uh so, the Omaha police said they will not
be allowed in here. And Idon't know. I don't know what's worse
is, uh, you know,getting thrown out of a World Series baseball
game or being banned from Nebraska?Well, what are you missing in Nebraska?
Video? Nothing? Come on?Uh? I don't how do you
so? So if you banned somebodyfrom the World Series, how are you

(11:24):
gonna actually do that? I guessyou can see it. I mean they
could, they've got the You shouldsee these guys. You should see these
two guys. They they look thatthey're their upper middle aged. I think
they're forty ish. Are you gonnado? Is that at each gate the
security folks have their pictures pasted up. Yeah, but they throw on a
ball cat sunglasses when drunk twenty yearolds are more mature than you. It's

(11:48):
time to step back. It's timeto step back from your fanhood, from
sports. And as someone who grewup and lived the majority of their life
in Texas, I'd like to apologizefor the state of Texas for those two
idiots. Yeah, and now youknow why I make many aggie jokes like
I do. That's true. No, that's true. No, there was
a point, and I've told Dwightthis on the air several times of when
I stopped being that insane person.Was twenty twelve. Yeah, I was

(12:13):
sick, physically ill on the bathroomfloor on the day of the Dream Game
because I knew Louis was going tolose again and I was physically ill,
and my wife, to comfort me, kicked me in the stomach oh and
said you you're you're a dad anda husband and a grown man. Get

(12:33):
off the floor. That's how That'show we comes. That's how we comfort
in our house. But she wasright from that moment forward. I think
it was the peaking of the rollercoaster peaks at the top and then it
starts to go down downhill all theway, so it's downhill all the way.
I have lost interest, and II again, I would never do
what these idiots did. But Ihad knew. I know, I knew

(12:56):
at that point that I had toomuch invested in college athletics. Well,
I talk about Susan a lot onthe show, and you know, she
used to be as fanatic as itgets. When you roll. Gosh,
don't talk to me. The UKrowing team is wrong against Boston and the
Uptole River. Don't tell me.I used to heckle the cheerleaders because their
tickets were so close to the field. She used to kill. The famous

(13:18):
was her making the Georgia cheerleader cry. Where she would go, she would
she would point to her her littlebow in her hair and go, you
look ridiculous in your bell. Shelook ridiculous. Allegedly allegedly, I can't,
I can't say that's a true story. She was a little wild.

(13:39):
Here's what I say. Now,past forty years that's gone away. I
used to I used to have toplan special lady time. I would have
to ask, Hey, Tony,what time the Wildcats play Saturday? To
talk what o'clock? I'm not gonnaroll the dice on the Wildcats losing and
not getting special lady time. Wellyou have a separate room. Yeah,
we I had a quarantine room fornights that UK played or if youk lost,

pop for Father's Day? I oh, I thought you'd being a jerk and
asking me, and I was going, no, you know, our dad's
been dead for twenty years. No. Well, first of all, my
dad ended up because you know,he was stuck in Florida last week.

(20:19):
No, stuck in. I thinkit's so hot. When she says Florida
flower, Florida flower, it soundslike, yeah, so in New York.
When I say water in Florida,Oh my gosh. So yeah,
he was stuck in. He wasstuck in Lovely Fort Lauderdale because of the
rain last week. So he camehome yesterday and he told me he was
very tired. But yes, Igot him a shirt my dad. Okay,

(20:41):
my dad's very particular about her shirts, and they're next to impossible to
buy. He wants a polo shirtwith three buttons and a pocket. It
is so hard to find that anywhere. Like, and then once he gets
it, he wears it and wearsit and wears it until my mother hides
it and throws it away. Yep, I like this guy already. Yeah.
There was one shirt he wore wellinto like the nineties, that he

(21:04):
bought in like nineteen seventy four thathad that nineteen seventy four like sort of
pattern. Look, yes, butyes, yeah, Well that's why I
went to If I find a shirtlike that, I was stupid. I'd
just buy one. Now. IfI find one that I love, if
it's perfect, I buy two becauseI know I'm going to wear them out.
Hey, Accordey, your dad's oldschool New York. Do see where

(21:27):
pants are slacks? Well, didyou ever die rese story about my dad
when he first met my ex husband? No, I tell you the story.
Oh, this is a great one. So I grew up in an
apartment, a three family house,and we're on the top floor. And
when you come into my parents' house, you come, you walk into the

(21:48):
house, and you go up thestaircase and you go right into the kitchen.
Right off the kitchen, right thetwo bedrooms. Yep. So anyway,
I walk in and it was earlyin the day. I'd say it
was maybe about nine o'clock in themorning, and I said, Mom,
Dad, you know, my mynew boyfriend's here. You know, he'd
like to meet you. And allof a sudden, out of the pack
in a clear ironsh accent, youcould hear, where's my pants? Where's

(22:19):
where's me pants? So he comesout, and it's nine o'clock in the
morning. My dad has no ideawhat to give this guy. So he
offers, now again, nine o'clockin the morning, offers my my ex
husband offers him a beer. Andso he's looking at do I take the
beer or do I not take thebeer? So I gave him the nod.
I'm like, take the beer,beer, beer, take the beer.

(22:41):
So anyway, taking a look atthe market, yes, on that
note, a great story, thoughwe are gearing up definitely for a busy
week. The S and P fivehundred out of the open. It's a
little bit lower, it's down atenth of a percent. Coordinate. Wait,
I gotta pause you real quick forhey, Rick, I need your
eyes. Courtney Donahoe saying where's mepants? I need that audio? Okay,

(23:04):
go ahead, we are boring numberof stuff, lady. Anyway,
the Downtown one hundred and forty pointswith the news radio eight forty WHI s
Bloomberg Money report on Cordy Donahoe.It's a fascinating story and a fascinating book.

(23:26):
Matter of fact, Jackie, Yeahbooks. Jackie is part of a
book club and they meet downel oncea month or something, and one of
the books they read was The CornbreadMafia. And at first she this is
older women in the East End,right, like, why are we reading?
She said, it was one ofthe more fascinating books that they have
had in their book club. Right. Well, certainly the most accurate series

(23:48):
of books would be the ones thatare authored by Cornbread Mafia member himself,
Joe Keith Bikett, who is alsoa dear friend of yours and I been
on the show several times keeping constantcontact with him. But over the weekend,
actually it was Friday. Johnny Boonethe Cornbread Mafia, one of the
largest I guess you say. Heis the head of the Cornbread Mafia aka

(24:11):
the Godfather Grass. He passed awayage of eighty years old. At one
time they were the largest, oneof the largest growing and distribution operations of
marijuana in the world. And ifyou read the true stories by Cornbread Mafia
member Joe Keith Bickett, it's reallya fascinating story because you know, it's

(24:34):
here's the bottom, long and shortof it. Here's what happened is you
know, it used to be ifyou get caught growing marijuana, it's five
hundred dollars, fine, whatnot.But then during the Reagan and the War
on Drugs comes, Oh boy,they stepped it up. They made it
sound like you were it was,you were the criminal of the century.
And so overnight, overnight, itbecame, you know, a hardcore federal

(24:59):
time and that's what happened. Italked this morning with another Cornerbad Mafia member,
Tommy Scarface Lee, who actually uhshared living space with Johnny for three
years, and he said that hewill be missed and that the two shared
laughs, a lot of laughs anda few teers together. Johnny was a

(25:21):
good man and he'll be missed.Chief Frick mccobn legend around here. He
has been a US Marshall chief atseveral places. I remember one interview he
would say that Johnny Boone, youknow, sure he had illegal activity,
but you know that's there's two sidesof the coin. Chief Frick mccobin said

(25:42):
that he would buy air conditioners forhis town's schools and what money to people
and stuff. And even though hepursued him, Rick mccobn did, and
Rick Sanders Chief Rick Sanders as amatter of fact too to try to get
both of them on this morning.He even still had a run Johnny run
t shirt. Yeah. Soh sothey did what the revenuers, not revenuers,

(26:07):
the bootlegs, the bootleggers did backin those days, was that they
took care of the people that livetheir bottom food, make sure they had
to fixed up their houses and allthat. Right, So then whatd so
so they followed kind of suit withthat. So now they're the new bootleggers.
But it happened to be uh marijuana, Uh and remember it was it

(26:29):
was the War on drugs and itwas just say no and the commercials and
then they made marijuana girls. Youthink about it now because it's legal in
thirty one states, it's crazy,But to think about it, I remember
they had the uh they were theywere the Feds were using those silent helicopters
to fly over you know, theCornbread Mafia areas and trying to find their
marijuana patches. And it was sucha huge story. It was crazy.

(26:52):
Well, it's crazy you are interestedin reading the stories. I the only
books I can recommend are the booksseries from Joe Keith Bickett. And in
the series they tell I mean,there's so many stories about the Cornbread Mafia,
how it got named, you know, the beginnings and and where it
went. Uh. But one ofthe greatest stories I recall is at one

(27:15):
point one of their fields got seized, okay by the police, and during
that seizure they arrested one of themembers. So the members in the jail
and he overhears the officers talking abouthow they're all gonna watch this Ali fight.
Ali had a fight coming on thatnight, gonna watch the Ali fight.

(27:40):
So he gets bonded out by therest of the members after hearing that,
so he goes back. He too, He goes, look, we
need to get our field back.Let's go ahead and harvested tonight. They
said, what you talking about.It's under surveillance. Yeah, that's one
car. But we know for afact they're all going they're gonna be busy
watching this Ali fight. So theygot radios and somehow that night harvested the

(28:02):
entire field because everyone else in lawenforcement sound I really didn't know, it
really does, but it was goingon. So anyway, rest in peace.
But he had just gotten out ofa he was in jail in Ohio.
Man, I thought that Johnny Boonewouldn't see the light of day.
So I am. I am gladthat the guy got released for the last

(28:23):
few years because COVID, don't.I mean, he was you know,
he was not in great health andhe was up in his years a bit
and he was locked up, youknow, in the penitentiaries with COVID and
