Speaker 1: Congratulation?
Speaker 2: Now? Can I believe it?
Speaker 5: I can't. I We're telling Doug on the way over here.
The last two weeks I have been thinking about it
all but for some reason, uh well, I guess it's
do with his sisters and he Doug. They got together
to get a party whatever, and it hit me. Then
I got my three kids, Yeah yeah, planning an eightieth
birthday party. And I've been just thinking about holy shit
and the old adage. If I'd known I was going
to live this long, it had been taking.
Speaker 2: Care of myself, right, you know. I just saw somebody
who a guy I think too, who is over one hundred.
And then there was a man who lived to one
hundred and three and his wife right now is one
hundred and she wants to pass how long he lived.
He's passed, but she wants to get to it like
one hundred and four.
Speaker 1: Really yeah, and it is.
Speaker 2: And I don't know, just because if she feels good,
she's got her faculties. It's all, you know, I guess.
I mean, I understand that. Can I ask you some
questions since you're turning eighty? Absolutely no, and not even funnier?
And do you think I will answer them? Well, my
question would be, now, the greatest generation was probably your
your parents' generation, right, what do you remember about World
War Two?
Speaker 5: I don't remember anything about World War Two. My brother
was seventeen when he went in the navy.
Speaker 2: Your brother was.
Speaker 5: Yes, he's ninety one, just talking to him. He lives
in Georgia. But we used to watch John Cameron Swasee
every night to see if we could not see a
picture of him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But he was.
Speaker 5: In the Navy, so it was all army whatever from
the Korean War, got what was going on. He was stationed,
luckily god bless in Naples, Italy for eighteen months. So
he I've always asked him, I said, do I have
any No, No, I said, are you shitting me? I said,
you're there every much? And the stories those were worse
to your dad. My brother, your brother. My dad was
in the army. He had five brothers. There was thirteen kids,
and I'm five brothers and I got a newspaper clipping.
They were all in the same They were in the
war at the same time, which was they weren't stationed together,
but they were all there. Okay, So I remember hearing
stories stories.
Speaker 2: It's just strange that you would you know you you lived.
When I think about the eighty years that your dad
has been on the planet. My dad's going to be
eighty in October. The amount of time, the amount of
history you lived through, and the changes, like monumental changes
World War two, civil Rights movement was another monumental change
in the United States.
Speaker 5: One thing you forget. I can never remember not having
this country at war.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Sure, there's always been a war, always been something yep
of that nature that we were involved in.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is crazy, but well that's history. It kind
of sad. I mean, the horrors of it all. Then
the moon landing, right.
Speaker 1: Remember that you do? Oh? Absolutely sure.
Speaker 5: It was unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: Some people still to this day will argue that it
didn't happen, and they try to go back through old
tapes of buzz Aldred and other people saying that, yeah,
he saw a fact simile or something of it, that
it wasn't rock.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the sand went the wrong way on the back
of the wheels or some shipping thing.
Speaker 1: The really important. No, I don't think so.
Speaker 6: Uh JFK. Yeah. I was sitting in school.
Speaker 5: I was in Chilotte High and very dear friend of mine.
This was a separate Susie Smith's sales wife. Eventually we
were very good friends. And it was a business class
and she came in and she says, the president's been assassinated.
And I remember looking, I said, Susie, are you nuts?
What are you talking about? And then a teacher came
in and choking up on the on what he had
to tell his class. And then they released us to
go home. And I walked out of the school and
it was the most eeriest feeling. Everybody around you. It
was it was It wasn't an electricity. It was just
a weird It wasn't even that there was something happened drastically,
and you didn't know what was going to happen next.
You didn't know what to do. You just we walked.
I lived about a mile and a half from of
course we were able to walk. There wasn't buses at
that time for the kids. And we didn't talk to
each other. We didn't we didn't discuss. We just we
were kind of numbed. It was a crazy I'll never
forget it.
Speaker 2: Yes, I know. Then you think about, like all the
stuff you go, World War two, civil Rights, moon landing,
jfk assassination, which is before H. Woodstock, and then even
nine to eleven. I mean, that's a lot of monumental
just history, let alone the technological advances that have happened.
Speaker 5: Nine eleven, my wife and I were working at Greece
Baptist church. She was a secretary and I was a
custodian maintenance and she said, got to come in, they
got to watch this, and we just stood there again,
you know, yeah, and went on from there. It was
those were events that you don't think, well, I think
about nine to eleven frequently, but as far as that
moment that had.
Speaker 1: Happened, sure, you weren't.
Speaker 5: Right until now, it's been a long time, and yeah,
it was a little bit of a chill.
Speaker 2: Every once in a while, I'll think about it. Because
my oldest son was eleven months old and I remember
watching this. I had I was watching the Today Show.
I was doing afternoons on radio. I would bring him
to daycare. His mom was already work, and I remember
watching this and the Today Show said, uh, we have
a report of a small plane hitting the you know,
the World Trade Center. Will go live there when we
come back, and they went to commercial. I go, I'm
going to CNN. And as I'm watching now, the other
plane comes and I go, oh my god. And somebody goes,
this isn't an accident right at that time, and that
that would be probably when I'm thinking one of the
biggest historical moments. I lived through that in the Space
Shuttle having exploded. But but the splate Space Shuttle was
it didn't have the same impact. Scary upsetting. Okay, you
know lots of jokes about the teacher, well, color of
her eyes, doug.
Speaker 1: One blue, one blue this way one o oh j
in the car, oh j oh man, I forgot oj
the glove. Yeah, O.
Speaker 2: Man, what what up? You packed a lot into this
journey man packed a lot in there with the.
Speaker 5: Sometimes you don't remember until you're sitting here talking to you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, there's no because.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he did he made more yards. But anyways, I
climbed over a couple of yards. But that's another story.
Speaker 1: Okay. I don't know.
Speaker 2: If you feel like sharing, feel free. It's it's your
by the way, in honor of your birthday.
Speaker 1: Yes, dog, always nothing. I got crowns, You got crowds.
Speaker 2: Well, I was going to get it. It's my birthday,
pink Tiara.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I know you would have, but I thought
that maybe too Bean a little stupid.
Speaker 2: So we got crowns and stupid.
Speaker 1: There's crowds and then we all gonna are we all
gonna wear one? Take one and passing down? And I
got some uh, we got some sweets to celebrate. I
don't know if sweets are okay or not. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know what the rule is, but I do.
But I didn't bring them. Do you like those?
Speaker 5: I've had a couple of.
Speaker 2: It was yeah, maybe I was having the wrong ones.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Okay, But the interesting thing is, uh, that's another one
in your lifetime. Because I always think that one of
the biggest changes in my life is the legalization of marijuana. Yes,
and now it's not at the federal level, but at
the state level, because when I was in fourth grade,
they came in and burned it. Instead.
Speaker 1: If you smell this, come find an adult.
Speaker 2: Going now, I look back and I go, that guy
had to be just going, hey, if you smell this,
because who burned it? I know nobody else my age
I've ever heard of having somebody come in and burn
When I first found out about it.
Speaker 1: I remember a couple kids selling it in high school,
well selling it.
Speaker 2: Yes, this is a teacher burning it and saying if
you smell this. It was a drug counselor mister Brannigan,
and he's like, if you smell this, come in, come in.
Speaker 1: Where you found Well, this is a weird thing. I go,
a kid, Yes, where did he get it?
Speaker 2: To even burn it? If it's so illegal or so bad?
That's very smart. Your father's very smart. He's putting it around.
The theory is.
Speaker 1: It's good to be the king. It's very good to
be the king.
Speaker 5: A lot of eighty years of experience. Yeah, I've had
these things in my head before. I can't remember her name,
but that's another story.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Wow, you mustn't have quite a bit with the the
elvis suits and the whole thing.
Speaker 5: And I have stories.
Speaker 1: That was.
Speaker 2: Should we wait till Doug leaves?
Speaker 5: Oh? Most of the time he was my Johnny b
Good person. It was one of the things I missed
the most about not entertaining anymore, is what him getting
up on stage with me and singing, Johnny be good.
Speaker 2: Wow, I hear there's a party Saturday.
Speaker 5: Well, that gonna happen. I got the I got the karaoke.
Speaker 2: Is there karaoke?
Speaker 5: Oh? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Oh. He always has something with me speakers or microphone.
Speaker 2: Or something, so maybe they'll be, uh, why not? That
would be fantastic. That would be fantastic.
Speaker 5: I always had fun. I wasn't just enjoyed entertaining people
and taking their mind off of whatever and let them
use their imagination. If you know, to put the music
that wasn't playing, it comes to them right away.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 5: I think it's a great thing to be able to entertain.
Speaker 2: I think that that kind of escape is really important
for people because you you walk out and you feel
better in a way, right yeah, and you're not feeling
like you're you know, even comedy, right yeah. You get
a break from life. But it's almost like you could
give yourself a break if you didn't always just focus
on the negative side of stuff in your life, and
it's hard to do. You know, financial things, those things
they weigh heavy, right, these things got a heavy, Sure
are very heavy. Keep going, Doug, let's keep bringing it.
Speaker 5: When I was out of this, when I was done
with my performance, the two hours that I was on there,
I made sure that I get right out to the
door as people were leaving, and it was just wonderful.
The appreciation that they were able to say, thank you, yeah, handshake,
and the hugs from the women they appreciate it. It
was a little bit more besides being on stage and
having the applause, but when you were able to thank
them personally.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what they want, the scarves, what they want, the
scarves and the hug. He always handed out scarves.
Speaker 5: Oh god, my wife made scarves, twenty thirty scarves every performance.
Speaker 1: How old women going up going crazy?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what those ladies did with those scars, right,
I do pandcuff themselves.
Speaker 5: I have to show them how to do them. Not
d underneath had lady Bill. I used to bring a
lady up on pick a dif lady. Obviously, every time
we did the song, it was are you lonesome tonight?
And I picked this one lady up out of the
she had to be up on stage, and she got
in the chair and I had my black costume, I
had the long what's that thing that's on the cape? Cape?
I know it's in there someplace. So I'm singing, how
are you loansome? As I sang are you lonesome tonight?
On the tonight, she reaches in behind the cape and
pitches my ass. So it went. And when you can
get the audience involved, they loved it because she says
are you lonesome? To every time she'd pinch me, I'd
get and the audience she well, you couldn't let that
off the stage. I mean that became part of the
more than you you.
Speaker 2: Played with it. Hang on a second, now, this is
a different woman every night that got to do every yeah,
every show and how did how did?
Speaker 1: How did it go?
Speaker 2: When you got home?
Speaker 5: Kathy doesn't have a jealous streak. She was she was,
she was enjoying the show man.
Speaker 4: She's one of the kind that's one of the nothing,
that's one of a right, that's right for one of
two years, yeah, forty two years.
Speaker 2: Congratulations on that. And now eighty.
Speaker 5: Well, I told you what she said, Richard. She should
be here because it's a punchline that she does. But
I asked you the other night, I says, you know,
I says, in forty two years, I said, am I
the only one? And she looked at me and she says, yes,
you were the only one. All the rest were nines
and tens.
Speaker 2: The oh, I see where you get it. No, no, no, no,
it's an old joke, but it's found. I see where
you get the stage presidents and the easiness about you
and all that. Seriously, Yeah, yeah, I'm not saying the material.
I'm not. That's right. That's you, that's you, that's all you.
Speaker 1: But but that's another generation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's kind of fun. Yeah, it is
what you're brought up with. Sure, off on you a
little bit here and there. I mean, I was raised
by people that yelled at me a lot and stuff.
Speaker 1: And what did your dad do?
Speaker 2: My dad was an English teacher.
Speaker 1: All right, well, then you you talk, Yeah, you're well spoken.
Speaker 2: My mom was a speech mythologist.
Speaker 1: Okay, well yeahs perfect sense.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then uh, my dad was a kind of
an odd guy. He had a philosophy.
Speaker 1: More odd than going up on the stage wearing an
Elvis jumpsuit and singing no at about equal but no
like he was.
Speaker 2: He had you know, uh doctor in philosophy, but he
taught six skate English. But he built like everything. You know,
I grew up in the city, never having a power
to built the house I grew up in built me.
The Cools just had a really creative, wonderful mind and
brilliantly smart, someone intimidating in that area, and as are you.
He would also and sing to me.

he would help me with Yeah, when I was doing
my homework, almost like IVI.
Speaker 5: Was real, Yes, yes, I like the guy.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you are so stupid that I am so those
show I had to do this Willy.
Speaker 2: Will Yeah.
Speaker 1: I always called me Willy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love.
Speaker 1: The guy, you know. Yeah, it's the way. Does he
still sing? Did you ever bring it up deader when
you sing to me?
Speaker 2: I think I did once and he was I wasn't big,
I was just playing and like he kind of pushed
it off and he was just playing, but it was
it would always hit me at the wrong time because
you were really struggling through you know whatever problem it
was in math?
Speaker 1: And you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Uh, why don't we take a moment. I have a
weird story I came across, but I also have I'd
like to ask thought of more questions to ask you

the biggest role models growing up, Yes, growing up. Now,
you said Elvis, but I think he had somebody else.
I think there was other people.
Speaker 8: For the most.
Speaker 5: My father was Superman to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was six.
Speaker 2: He never said anything like that about you.
Speaker 5: Well, because my dad was probably the strongest person I'd
ever known.
Speaker 1: Sure, uh no, he was big and he was strong.
Speaker 5: Yeah he was yeah, he and he was crazy. My
father was literally crazy when he started out as a
young young man. He used to ride the motor dome,
the motorcycle.
Speaker 2: Oh inside the case.
Speaker 1: Yeah wow he real. Yeah, Oh that's NUTSI.
Speaker 5: His brother told him how the owner, how old he
was he was at the State State Fair at the
straight shows, straight straight shows.
Speaker 1: Excuse me?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he all was when he was doing this
to fourteen he was he was.
Speaker 5: Young, Yeah, somewhere in there, fourteen fifteen something like that.
No fear and no, he was crazy.
Speaker 2: That's fun.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: We moved. He taught me.
Speaker 5: He taught me how to paint. He taught me how
to hammer, you know, Okay, do it this way, no
matter if I bent the nail or whatever. It too
and again yeah, so I looked up the dead. He
could do anything as far as I was.
Speaker 1: But he was crazy. Is that.
Speaker 5: We moved a lot. Yeah, and that's thirty three different
places before I was born. At the time I graduated
from Chicagot High.
Speaker 2: School, thirty three places, all in the Greater Rochester area.
Speaker 5: We moved to Fulton or Phoenix, uh for a short
time when I was a baby. I don't remember that,
but yeah, and Dad was a worker. He always had work,
but if something pissed him off, he go find another work.
Speaker 1: Oh, I got so.
Speaker 5: He had a short fuse at times.
Speaker 2: But yeah, that that's a good role model. I mean
that's somebody who, when you're talking, could do anything. When
you talk about that, what advice would you give to
your younger self. As I wear the crown in honor
of your birthday, I shouldn't be the king. It's not
my birthday, but.
Speaker 5: Close enough, you're the prince.
Speaker 1: He had the king with a fire above your head.
Speaker 5: But the well, Dad, this is my father. He could
he didn't. You always used to say that, he says.
Davey says, I had. I had to drop out of
school in the seventh grade so I wouldn't pass my
father in the eighth I mean it was as simple
as but he could take a row of numbers, four numbers,
four rows, just and he'd have the total at the bottom. Yeah, yeah,
I mean it was one of those mind and he
read everything. He was a reader. I mean, he couldn't
go to the bathroom without a can of Campbell soup.
If he didn't have any book. I mean, it was ridiculous.
But he could do math unbelievable. And he got so
pissed off at me. One time I was going to
Hoover Drive and I wasn't the best student because we
moved a lot. Okay, I didn't have good technique as
far as keeping stuff in my mind. That's how I
became an Elvis fan, because when we moved, I liked
other people, other music, other artists, but I kept the
Elvis because that's all it could take with me. Yeah,
I can only go take so much to the spot anyway,
So I had the multiplication tablet. I could not get nines.
I was and he was out in the kitchen. My
mother's helping me, and she says, David, how much is
nine time six and whatever? And he came out and
he looked at me and he says, you better tell
me right now. He says, I'm going to take this
broom handle and smack you over the head, and he did,
and I broke it, and I got laughing with my mother.
So he just said piss on it and walked away.
But he was he was my idol. The other person though,
that I looked up to in high school. His name
was Art Teamerson and he was coach. Teamerson was my
wrestling coach, and there was just something about him that
I liked and he liked me. I was a terrible wrestler.
But anyways, after I got through with that whatever, and
this guy came.
Speaker 2: Home, Yeah, same coach.
Speaker 1: Was he still there?
Speaker 2: No, Well you might remember, but you were you went
far with wrestling. Well, I mean you went to college
and runs. Yeah, I mean to me that that's sneeze
at in my mind, it's really not.
Speaker 5: And it was through our Teamerson that I wanted to
get my son involved. Yeah, So it was something that
just stuck with me. And I'm saying, well, and he's
passed on and he was quite a guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, wrestling is Uh, it's interesting. I never wrestled. They
didn't have it in my school. No, No, that they
did at one point, and when I went through, they didn't.
It wasn't in the budget whatever it was. So you
had me schools yeah yeah, really small and well football
and you got it.
Speaker 1: That was it.
Speaker 2: The track track yeah, and uh, but they did some
wrestling units and things, so I never wrestled. I never,
but I see the kids now, I think it's a
real discipline.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tough to get numbers in schools. I uh,
in sports these days, the discipline and the dedication, it
takes a lot more. I don't want to say laziness,
but uh, hard to find kids that make it through
the whole season. They're willing to, Yeah, because you've gotta
fail to get better. Yeah, and most kids like come out,
come out. I don't.
Speaker 5: That's why I have a heart problem because of Go
and watch him wrestle.
Speaker 1: I go.
Speaker 2: I was screaming, did you ever pop douse? You ever
want to just jump in the ring?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 2: Put on there?
Speaker 5: He kicked my ass out.
Speaker 1: What what about?
Speaker 2: What advice would you give your younger self about raising
a family? I asked that for a while. Well, I
asked that from this perspective. I have guys who were
in their early twenties, and then I have a fourteen
year old right, and I feel like I could have
done things different with the other guys, and I'm trying
to do it different now. It's just you're older. You
see things. Maybe there's less going on because it's just him,
you know. What I mean, and it's not. The other
two were sixteen months apart, so there was a lot
there already.
Speaker 1: I'd be easier being one on one that it could
be the other two. It could be too.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, is that. But but there are
things that I would handle and man, I mean I
could be quick or yelling or snapping. And now I
try to take a beat a little bit here and
just sort of see your perspective and try to not
say a lot of words but get my point across.
You know what I'm saying, Like, if you want to
do X, Y and Z. When I tell you to
do something, I'm telling you once. If you don't do it,
then we don't. Then the payoff on the other end
doesn't happen.
Speaker 5: I used to tell my kids, I still do. I
hope that they really remembered it, but sometimes it's a
little foggy and they don't think that.
Speaker 2: They think.
Speaker 5: They may think that you're trying to run their life.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I looked at them, I said, listen, a parent's job
is to watch.
Speaker 1: Out for you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not telling you what to do. You know
what you want to do, whether it's right or wrong.
I'm telling you what I think could be a difference
that you didn't think about. But you do what you want,
But did you think about this? It's all my philosophy
is a nicer way to think about it.
Speaker 2: That my father used to say, you know what my
job is to keep you alive. You're not going with
those guys in the story. And it was very usually right,
you know what I mean, because it was like I
probably did that, Doug.
Speaker 5: Doug and I have a couple of things just coming
to my mind. I don't know, he must think this
is really my father. I'm really doing this with my father.
He wanted a basketball hoop and it was a four
x four and there used to be a chase picking
and it was up where the Mount Red Wegmans is now,
but it was in the back. It was the old
Wegmans and the chase picking store was in. So we
walked up. It's a mile, it's a mile to a house.
Speaker 1: The pain that Doug's face, No, it's just remembering it.
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, all right, so you walked up a mile.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, so now we got to bring the four
by four that's twenty foot long back.
Speaker 1: We walked it home.
Speaker 5: He was on one end, and obviously I was on
the other, one way or the other.
Speaker 2: Why why didn't you?
Speaker 1: I didn't have a car, truck or anything.
Speaker 5: So I figured, well we carry carry it.
Speaker 1: That was funny in the day we got it up.
We lowered the rim so I could slam it.
Speaker 5: That was fun being with my son carrying a four
by four twenty foot long It was And I used
to yell at it.
Speaker 1: What did you yell at him? About everything? Anything?
Speaker 5: I used to run out of the house.
Speaker 8: Wrong.
Speaker 5: He does a better imitation of me than I did.
I don't remember it, but that's right. Your kids, you
just love them like you more than they have than
they know.
Speaker 1: Sure, they're loved, yeah, you know that.
Speaker 2: Yes, And I think a lot of times when you worry, uh,
you put that feeling on them and they you know,
there's becomes a little resistant. But if you can just
sort of be oh that that's what I'm saying, try
to drop the guard a little bit, I think that
always helps. Right, I have boundaries, Right, I'm not your buddy,
I'm your dad. But at the same time, you know
a little a little different, all all parts the same,
and that you arrived in in other words.
Speaker 1: Like no hip no, or did you have no wooden leg? No,
no wooden leg no nos? Yeah, no, god no, you've had.
Speaker 2: Two hip replacements?
Speaker 5: Yeah, one on each side.
Speaker 1: Wow, okay, well I figured I was hoping it wasn't
the same one.
Speaker 5: Let's see.
Speaker 6: I mean.
Speaker 5: I did my uh my little jot with a with
a little finger here that day. Oh yeah, and interesting, yeah,
do you have that in a jar anywhere? Any I said, doctor,
I says get. He said no, no, no, no, he
get you know. Oh no, we can't do that. I said, gay,
I said, it's mine. I took ten weeks before he says, well.
He says it's going to hurt. I says, no, not
if you cut it off. I said, just take it off.
I says, I don't want to hurt anymore.
Speaker 1: What was wrong with it?
Speaker 5: I cut it on a table. SAW immediately called Kathy
to call nine one one, and I was just laying
on my hand and they got there and they got
me in an ambulance, and it was a very nice
young lady. She's asking me all kinds of questions and
uh name age and how much did you weigh? And
I looked at her. I said, with or without my finger.
Speaker 1: He always funny, that's true.
Speaker 5: And she says, well, you're not in shock. I said, no,
I'm not in shock. I'm pissed at myself. It should
have happened. But whatever. But if you had hip replacements,
the oblasions, yeah, for the heart, which is they acting
normal according to them?
Speaker 1: Okay, protato cut.
Speaker 2: You know, just rotator cuff surgery. Yeah, yeah, but no,
but no organ replacements. Everything's good there right as far
as I know. Yeah, I ever heard anything organ replacement.
I didn't realize what a what a market. This is
like the underground organ replacement stuff. Listen to this story.
This is the most bizarre story stuff like this. But
is it well true or is it I don't know, Doug,
it's a great question. I'm about to play you news.
Speaker 1: Some people are like, oh, you can sell a kidney
for two hundred fifty thousand, or you can sell half
your liver because half your liver will go back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, lobes they call a lobe of your liver. They
call it a lobe of your liver. And uh, but
they're even doing things. Back in like nineteen sixty something,
there was a Harvard professor who went down to some
kind of almost i'll say, abandoned town in Florida and
had a monkey preserved down there chimpanzees, and he was
doing experiments and things in chimpanzees, and he was a
psychology professor. It was Orange Park, Florida. And there's a
documentary it's mostly about Oliver, chimpanzee born about nineteen sixty,
whose appearance and behavior had led to some to speculate
that he might be a hybrid created by impregnating a
female chimp with human sperm. Okay, all right, it's almost
like a right, so they could cross thing, which is
pretty pretty weird.
Speaker 1: And it was on the Doctor, the Island of Doctor Moreau,
remember that, yes, well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And they did a test in nineteen ninety
six and they finally figured out that there was no
human DNA, or at least they say no human DNA.
Speaker 1: But listen to human DNA sperm. It's in a monkey
or some other animals.
Speaker 2: I don't know, but wait till I go to the story.
Speaker 10: Right after this, a man arrested for a road rage
shooting is facing separate jaw dropping charges. He is accused
of trying to buy a nine month old baby and
harvest the child's organs, this whole thing.
Speaker 2: Okay, Now wait, do you hear how this story developed?
Because I see your father. He just crossed his arms.
He's disgusted with this story. This man is repulsive, is
he not?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, a nine month old baby. But listen, no, listen,
this is weird. The thing is bizarre.
Speaker 9: This is Jose Tehran.
Speaker 1: Junior.
Speaker 9: Police say Tehran shot the driver of a semi truck
on Monday. We reported on it a Long I thirty
five and thousand Oaks after a road rage crash. But
before that, back on December thirtieth, San Antonio police say
Turan was mistakenly added to a group text chain about
the baptism of a nine month old an arrest abidavit
states tront.
Speaker 2: Okay, So what what had happened was he somebody had
their phone number changed, so Uncle Joe didn't inform the
family that he got a new phone number, so they're
texting the old phone number. Who now happens to be
this guy, so he's in the chain about this nine
month old baby's baptism.
Speaker 9: Responded to that thread saying, quote, that's a nice Caucasian baby.
Speaker 10: How much you want the affidavit says the baby's father
then called.
Speaker 1: It kind of group chat. I think it was a joke.
I would think this is not real, right, I've got
a lot of friends. I don't know, I think anybody.
Of course, I don't have a baby to sell, right.
Speaker 2: But no, I've never even heard of this, But I
would think it was like a really tasteless joke on there.
Speaker 1: Let me continue with the story.
Speaker 10: Tan and Taran told him that he purchased babies for
their organs and was willing to pay in cash or bitcoin.
T Ron allegedly told the father he knew the address
of the church and the family's home address. When police
questioned Tron about these text messages, they say that he
hold investigators he thought the group text was smam. He's
now charged with prohibition of the purchase and sale of
human organs.
Speaker 1: Okay, so he's saying, hey, I just thought it was
a prank. I'll break it back.
Speaker 2: I'm not really sure that that's true because to say bitcoin,
and he said I'll start the bidding at five hundred thousand. Wow.
Speaker 1: Bitcoin, That's why he keeps going on, Well, bitcoin, you
can't trace it.
Speaker 2: Really, I don't know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: They say that's one of the ways to launder money,
But don't you have to have five hundred thousand to
buy it somehow? Yeah? Well whatever, I really sure how
it works me neither.
Speaker 2: I don't know. So yeah, I would think that maybe.
Speaker 1: It may be a wait, harvest organs, so you're just
gonna feed this kid, yeahs to be fifteen sixteen adult.
Speaker 2: Well, no, I think he's harvesting baby organs. And I
don't know if he's selling them to labs or whatever
to keep the liver going or I mean you're talking like,
I mean that's veal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's organ.
Speaker 5: It doesn't surprize you that this you know, you're saying
that this doesn't happen.
Speaker 2: It does happen. And that's the thing, is it. You're
absolutely right. According to the Guardian newspaper, which is a
British based newspaper, what kind of goes all over tabloid, uh,
it is illegal to buy or sell an organ anywhere
in the world, with the exception of Iran. It's the
only place that you can buy or sell an organ. Yes,
is not illegal in Iran.
Speaker 1: Full organ, I'll sixty fourteen, Yes, it's a full thing.
Speaker 2: However, the estimates suggested around ten percent of organs for
transplantation come from illegal sources. Most cases, however, go on reported,
so the true number is likely much higher than ten percent.
I just did.
Speaker 1: I can bring in an organ to an hospital, say
where did you get it? So without paperwork or because
I knew somebody that had that transplanted organs? They did
it as their job. Yes, okay, I mean there only
so much time and sure, yeah, yeah right, same.
Speaker 2: As coming in on ice. Sometimes they're helicopter in it
in somebody just got killed in a car accident, whatever
it might be.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 2: Several countries, including Pakistan.
Speaker 1: Think she did kidneys. I'm sorry because those could be
kind of kept a day or so.
Speaker 4: Day or so.
Speaker 1: They last slung it in my devil leggs. But by
the way, I mean, don't do it.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, it's not a party on Saturday Thursday.
Oh the Deviled Eggs.
Speaker 1: I think what I what are you twenty for twenty
twenty double leggs, twenty bucks.
Speaker 2: For the Super Bowl? Thill make it are yourself. I'm
sell them. Okay, pick up only, all right, pick up only,
pick up only. Okay, I'll help you advertise it, we'll
see what happens. We'll help you advertise.
Speaker 4: UH.
Speaker 2: Several countries including Pakistan each at Bangladesh, India, Turkey, the Philippines,
and China have identified have I identified as centers of
organ trafficking, but the trade for or is trans national operation.
So like this, one guy was broke and he tried
to escape his country and got deported back and they
were holding him there and it was like hundreds of
thousands of dollars. So he wound up finding somebody and
selling his kidney and they took him. They blindfolded him,
they took him into some dark place, so he didn't
know where he was going. I think it was in Iran,
and he he they put him under anesthesia. He wakes up,
he's got no kidney, the kidney's gone, and he's kicked out,
ready to go. And sometimes they don't get all the
money that they're promised.
Speaker 1: I think I would need that up front.
Speaker 2: I would too, wouldn't you know? I mean, but how
weird is that that we have such a demand for this.
So now the question.
Speaker 1: Wasn't Mickey Mantle he needed a liver. He needed a liver,
and he got to the top of the thing, and
it was like, you know, was that the type of thing?
But somebody said, I will, I will donate, but it's
got to go to him. Oh so that's kind of
how he jumped. I have no idea. Yeah, all I
know is I remember that being a big thing, don't
you know.
Speaker 2: I remember doing it. It's just saying, what a waste
of a good liver.
Speaker 1: You didn't think it was gonna last to fifty alone eighty? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, imagine what these third world countries, Well, this is it.
Speaker 1: This is where they're having to be rampant.
Speaker 2: That's where it's happening.
Speaker 5: Crazy.
Speaker 2: You're absolutely right, that's where it's happening because there's no money.
You go in there and you can get a couple
thousand dollars or whatever the amount would be, and you
could probably pay for your family to live more comfortably
than they are. I don't know what it would but
check this out. This is real. In Japan, they're trying something.
What's that, Well, they're trying to get this through as
a law. And I'm not making this up.
Speaker 1: This is real.
Speaker 2: Scientists led by hero Mitsu Nagawachi at the University of
Tokyo have developed a process for forming I don't know
what a chimeric or chimeric embryo is, but they plan
a human stem cell into an animal embryo, so usually
a pig because they do use pig heart valves.
Speaker 1: My embryo A few pigs in my lifetime.
Speaker 2: Hang, do you know he must have failed biology?
Speaker 5: He failed a lot of things.
Speaker 2: You can't have an embryo.
Speaker 1: Uh well unless exactly I got it. Ah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So they're saying right now it's legal in planting
an animal like human stem cells in an animal embryo. Well,
they want to grow human organs within the pig. When
they say human organs, kidney and liver are the ones
they're looking for, so they want to grow then they
so then they would slaughter, slaughter the pig and get
the organs, and you go.
Speaker 1: Seeing a new kidney in the side of bacon. I'm in,
I am in. I like this idea for all you
bacon lovers out there. This is keep drinking, keep drinking,
you have a new liver.
Speaker 2: But now, every once in a while, what would it
look like. Now, I've seen some people that I think
were crossed with pigs. In my life, I have come
across them. But I'm just saying, like, what do you
wouldn't it be weird if all of a sudden it
was more than just the liver and the kidney that
were of more human or human enough that you could
transplant it, Like you know, they got eyes and eyelasses
and eyebrowsses.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. Yeah, that's a weird fucking thing.
Speaker 2: And where ethically, what do you do pig hybrids? I
don't know. Would you know if you needed an organ,
would you take one from a hybrid like that? I
think so, I'll tell you this. If and and your dad.
Speaker 1: Can speak to this, you can't, uh no, But if
you had a child that.
Speaker 2: Needed an organ, I would probably be fine with a
hybrid coming from a pig if it was going to
save my kid's life. If I wasn't a match, you
know what I mean, if if there was nothing I
could even give up a kidney, or if it was
something like even a heart that you know, I need
mine to be around, so I can't give you mine.
Speaker 1: That was a movie John Qwan Dunzel Washington that the
insurance wouldn't pay, so at the end he was going
to kill himself and have his heart transplanted his son,
and luckily there was a heart that came in the end.
And talking to some people in the field, they're like,
you know, the insurance isn't paying for and that's the
same kind of casts upt that happened that a guy
getting killed. Yes, yes, the CEO.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Well it's gotten pretty bad and it's actually
forced some of the insurance companies to make changes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're for real for changes.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I find this fascinating that they would actually do this. Well,
technology is coming off, you know it is, but it's
a it's just yeah, we can do that, but we
can't cure cancer.
Speaker 2: Oh I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Kidney's yeah's no bacon for you, No
bacon for you? All right?
Speaker 2: Well I like that. Yeah, I get a new kidney
and a side of bacon.
Speaker 1: There you go, extra Christie. I love it.
Speaker 8: Bacon.
Speaker 1: That's right, David, that's right.
Speaker 2: It's uh David Phelps' eightieth birthday this weekend. We are
celebrating and we'll be back. I have more questions for
your dad, if you don't mind, all right, you sure, Okay,
we'll get to all that right after that. I would say.

Speaker 1: Where Let's who want?
Speaker 5: Hello?
Speaker 8: Wonder love you?
Speaker 1: One of the most assud pictures in the White Houses,
the one of Elvis and Nick. Well, it's not the
most they made him. The drugs are one I thought.
Speaker 2: They made him. The drugs are the drugs, aren't I
guess on the the unofficial drugs? Are you love me?
Speaker 1: I don't know?
Speaker 2: Is you do? Well?
Speaker 1: Let's who wantthis? Mafia? Wonder love you?
Speaker 2: He's stepping all over this beautiful song. Nice job. Here's
the thing that people need to know. I have the
karaoke in front of me. I see when the words
are lighting up. He David does not. He doesn't have
a screen.
Speaker 1: What saying Okay, you mock it? Got that mind?
Speaker 2: I got it.
Speaker 1: It just doesn't need father doesn't need the karaoke I
could see these songs. You know why, because I've heard
him for fifty four years. That's probably true. It is
probably probably true.
Speaker 2: It is true.
Speaker 1: I think Doug therefore I am.
Speaker 2: I think that Elvis uh was the drugs are there
was something because he was there to talk about, like
keeping young people off drugs was his thing. In nineteen seventy,
Elvis decided to crash the White House and convince rich
Richard Nixon he would like to aid in the in
fighting drugs. As a narc Nixon warned Elvis a badge
from the Bureau of Narcotics and dangerous drugs. Ironically, Elvis
was addicted to restriction drug.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but there were prescription drugs.
Speaker 2: They weren't street drugs.
Speaker 1: Doctor had to write a note for this. How funny
is that a lot of notes? Yeah, morning, I'll give
me a popa pill.
Speaker 2: You have a picture of Elvis, And do you really
I think you just said one of the most popular ones.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And now we have a a not so brand new,
brand new president because he was president before. I mean right,
absolutely he is.
Speaker 1: He's back.
Speaker 2: I don't believe that's ever.
Speaker 1: I was wondering that has that ever had Adams.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he had a president that served two terms with
one in between.
Speaker 1: Who was it, Well, it was in his life. I
probably voted for him.
Speaker 2: I don't remember. I'd have to look at us Adams. Yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just excuse me. But yes, President Trump back
and all kinds of his wife looked like the hamburglar
last night with her hat on. A gorgeous woman. Yes,
she is.
Speaker 1: She always looks like she always looks like she's just
like a little just annoyed with him, you think, just
a little bit, right. Grover Cleveland, Grover Cleveland. Thank you, David,
Thank you, David. Charlotte high.
Speaker 5: Baby, there it is, you're past of sixty four?
Speaker 1: Oh wow, all right. She just doesn't stand there look beautiful.
I mean what she does.
Speaker 5: I think she's a very young son of theirs is
a good looking man. When he stood up and he
the girls that are going to come after him, you know,
they're going to have to have security around him all
the time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Baron Trump, Baron Trump, Yeah, that's uh, yeah, it's interesting.
Are you now your son is not?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 2: But are you a Bills fan?
Speaker 5: I was a Giants fan because so all they had
in Rochester, New York when I was growing up was
the Browns and the Giants two football teams, or or
the Rangers and the Blackhawks hockey.
Speaker 2: When did the Savers come into existence around the long.
Speaker 5: Time after that? Yeah, But when they went to the
Super Bowl to play.
Speaker 2: The Giants, yeah, I said, what are you gonna do?
Speaker 5: I said, I got to go with a home team,
So I went. I was a Bills fan.
Speaker 2: Now people get mad at me because they say, when
you grow up a fan of a certain team, you
have to stay always a fan of that team. Yeah,
my dad was not into sports. I did like the Giants.
Harry Carson had come to my church and spoke. There
was some other interactions. I think Phil Simms bought cars
from my mom's best friend's brother who had a Mercedes dealership.
So there was some connection. And I liked them, and
I rooted for them that time. I hadn't been in
Rochester yet. Then I came here. They lost the other
Super Bowls. I didn't give a shit. Then when I
got on radio and they started bringing the the training
camp to Saint John Fisher, we would broadcast from there
and you would sit down and interview these young guys
and you get to know them, and it was hard
to not like them, yeah, and want to root for them,
you know what I'm saying. And that's how I became.
So I like to think that David I should be
granted a little clemency here for changing my allegiance from
the Giants to the Bills, because I did get up
close and personal with the players when.
Speaker 1: The team sucked.
Speaker 2: I mean for all the years the team sucked, David
the Super Bowl, I went through, the seventeen years.
Speaker 5: I got a friend that he gets pissed off at
Bill's fans because they jump back on the wagon when
they're winning.
Speaker 1: Well, everybody Detroit, Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: But what a great season. Sad for them.
Speaker 1: But yeah, but.
Speaker 5: I said, listen, I says, yeah, I jump back on
I pissed off at him. I didn't like what happened
to him when they did stupid plays. You know, Miami
come the time, year after year and they just owned them.
You know, it was ridiculous. There's something I wanted to
bring up, conflict of interest. Okay, Don Shula, head coach
of Miami at the time, they were kicking our ass
in Buffalo. Yeah, he was on the handlers squad or
whatever that made up the rules for the referees. Oh,
you think that there wasn't a conflict of interest?
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 2: We could say that a lot of stuff.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm just saying that's a fair point.
Speaker 2: I just I think they probably wanted to They probably
wanted to have a coach's perspective, and so maybe they
had picked him or he nominated himself.
Speaker 5: Just set a couple of coaches together and ask them all.
Speaker 2: Well, that's a good point.
Speaker 1: I agree.
Speaker 2: That sounds like he was that a long Oh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't know that. Yeah, yeah, I didn't know that.
Speaker 5: That irritated me. Yeah, especially with what's happening. They say
Kansas City.
Speaker 6: And.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I don't like those calls for
any team.
Speaker 5: No, I don't care what team.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I think the Bill's got in this
past game, the.
Speaker 5: Uh the quarterback he got nailed and they didn't call it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and god, how can you how can you not?
Speaker 2: I got to think that that stuff happens so fast,
and I can't imagine that every ref and every umpire
or whatever they're called more referees than those games than
they do in the regular game. I don't believe so,
but they I don't know. Super Yeah, they usually get
the best crew, like the guys who have had the
least training.
Speaker 1: Yes, get rated.
Speaker 2: You do get rated after every game, right, so they
go back through. But I don't know how you make
like the call on ma Homes of helmet to helmet
against the Texans right where the Texas player and when
they slowed it down. I'm not convinced that that Mahomes
ever got touched. It looked like the two players, but
in the moment that you're seeing that happen in real time,
I don't know what call you make.
Speaker 1: I think they got to go to more. Uh yeah,
we got a review, but then it's it's forever.
Speaker 2: And then I will say, like the Bills hit the
rookie receiver and Trey White, who used to be a
Bill and now is a raven. They were practically battling
it down the field. There could have been offensive interference
for sure. Trey really didn't do that bad and and
it was a call in favor of the Bills, but
I think one that could have gone maybe either way,
or more so on the offensive player.
Speaker 5: Honestly, I think they should scrutinize the a little bit.
Speaker 1: Def are we going to make these games? You know
games here?
Speaker 5: Season games okay, but when you get to the playoffs, okay,
you're talking big money.
Speaker 1: That are absolutely are And sometimes you don't.
Speaker 5: Know where that big money goes for a dumb mistake
of making a decision.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 5: I never thought. I never thought that they could take
a team and say, oh, we're gonna make these guys,
We're gonna it's gonna be fixed. Never. Never that I
don't believe. But if you got all these referees, you
can take one person.
Speaker 2: Yeah and twist an arm.
Speaker 5: I think we.
Speaker 2: I mean, look, it's just here you see.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: Mahomes has certainly become a marquee name in the sport,
right and if they were to make it to the
super Bowl this year, uh, it would be an unprecedented
opportunity to make history of three wins in a row
at the Super Bowl. And how hard that is to
do that because the.
Speaker 5: Bills they went there four years in a row, but
they never but they never.
Speaker 2: Won, right, so this would be But I don't think
they everybody's no, I don't think so, not for in
a row.
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking this in a row now with Mahomes
happened Miami, I think, But do they win?
Speaker 5: I heard a lot of controversy about Mahomes. As he's
running off or getting away from tackling, he'll slow down,
so he'll.
Speaker 1: Yeah, is that part of the game.
Speaker 2: A little bit well, if you know what you're doing, Yeah,
a little bit foul? Yeah, I mean they try to
get you with the hard count, right.
Speaker 1: You ever see these.
Speaker 2: And you know that they're really trying to get the
other team to come off sides, because yeah.
Speaker 1: That's all.
Speaker 2: It's all ship, it's it's part of it. That and
getting your uh clock, forgetting who you are on the sideline.
Speaker 5: Hey man, I don't know how these guys physically. What
is the average length of time that player plays in
the n I.
Speaker 1: Thought it used to be two and a half years.
I don't know that it's about three? Yeah, is it three?
That's if you're right, you're going to the bench and there.
If you're just a practice dummy, three years, you're done.
We're going to get somebody younger.
Speaker 2: But when we when we think of the guys who
have played along it's only a handful, you know. It
seems like so many, right, but Josh Allen's been in
the league seven years, Home has been in so many years.
But there's a bunch of they're one guy on the
team of fifty four fifty eight they keep now fifty four, Yeah,
something like that. So there's a lot of You're right,
there's a lot of guys. I thought it was two
and a half and our.
Speaker 5: Bodies has got to be. Oh, I've got two hips
in the replace.
Speaker 2: I remember seeing like I remember seeing Jim Kelly and
he came in to a studio when we're talking and
he he had on crocs and he goes, yeah, there's
some days I just can't bend over and tie my shoes.
And he said, there are times where I have said
to my wife, Hey, let's go see this movie tonight.
What do you want to do?
Speaker 1: And she was that we saw it last week and
he can't remember. Really, yeah, but I mean, which it's
a sport.
Speaker 5: I mean, you're gonna get hit unbelievable.
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know how you say.
Speaker 2: The money is hopefully generational for some of the guys.
It is not everybody, but for some of the guys.
It's generational wealth. All right, we're talking. I think, didn't
the guy the Lions offensive coordinator just get hired by
Chicago for thirteen million a year and people are going
to this, Yeah, thirteen million a year for him, for
the coach, for the coach. Yeah, so, which I gotta
think is maybe an NFL record.
Speaker 1: I don't know, winning a Super Bowl money out without
ever being a head coach. I don't think.
Speaker 2: I don't think he was ever a head coach.
Speaker 1: It makes me think because I was watching the obviously
Ohio State notre team last night, you and uh they
showed old players on the sidelines and Joe Montana had
a Guinness shirt on. I'm like, yeah, how much is
he getting for that? He's not. He didn't just say honey,
how does this look at me? You know, like, Joe?
Speaker 2: Why I appreciate it? Joe, we have a Guinness mirror here.
I don't usually show it up on the cameras.
Speaker 1: But we do. We're going to give you two hundred
and fifty thousand, yeah.
Speaker 2: For one shot on the sideline. Who's going to tell
Joe Montana to take that off? Nobody, Nobody, nobody, Joe Montana, but.
Speaker 1: He's not wearing it because he loves advertising. I'm sure
they're giving him some money.
Speaker 2: Fit your tongue. Of course, every real man with any
Irish lineage at all loves Guinness.
Speaker 1: Montana's an Irish name. I don't know, but he he
went to an Irish school. Did oh? Saint Patrick is
all about not today? What number was he? Joe?
Speaker 2: I thought he was eleven? Who's three?
Speaker 1: In college?
Speaker 2: I didn't know that, Okay?
Speaker 1: In college?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't care. I just see him do all
the Guinness Ads. I like the Guinness Ads because somebody
comes in, they have no idea who he is, right,
and they go play tennis. Yeah, because when you look
at him now, he looks like he's in shape for
his age, but he looks like he probably no, he's
no David selves six.
Speaker 1: He's got to be something, yeah something? Yeah?
Speaker 7: What is?
Speaker 1: What would you say?
Speaker 2: How is your philosophy of life?
Speaker 1: Do you ever have?
Speaker 2: Like a philosophy of life?
Speaker 1: David?
Speaker 2: When you think about it over the years, over the decades.
Speaker 5: It's you talk about eighty years and the things that
we've gone through, the different skirmishes for this country, and
the way the young kids have gone in stages, different stages.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: Between my father and I and his father, it was
a distance. It was like from the earth to the
moon distance. Then when I had my own son, it
was a long way out there. How do you you know,
it was just like from here to way past mars.
I mean that's your philosophy. Yes, you're thinking what goes
on in your life. It's as simple as that. Yeah,
I've said the Doug, well, this is the way that
should be done. Dad. It's not done that way anymore,
when actually it is. It's just a little bit of different.
Speaker 2: A little different, right, it's the same thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we get there to the same point.
Speaker 5: We just do it the old way. Yeah, I mean,
oh that's the old way. Well, the old way worked.
Speaker 2: A lot better sometimes sometimes, sometimes, sometimes.
Speaker 5: All the time. I'm aware of that, so I take
a little bit different stance. Say, well, listen, you know,
like like music, you know, is it my type of music? No,
my type of music is still stuck in the Elvis
in the fifties sixties. I thought it was great because
I don't know to listen to music. Now I'm saying,
what did they say? You know, it's just I don't
understand it. The dancing.
Speaker 1: You know, we used to yeah, jitterbug, right, you know
now then we're shug you know.
Speaker 5: Then we used to do the twist and stuff like that. Yeah,
and I understand that now it's just a concept.
Speaker 2: And never watched back and I say, enjoy. Did you
ever watch Dancing with the Stars.
Speaker 5: My wife loved it. I couldn't stand it. What I hated.
Speaker 2: This one of the sexiest shows on TV. Man, you
think so, yeah, Well, the way those women danced and stuff.
Speaker 5: Judges drove me nuts.
Speaker 2: Oh I got you some of the dancing of the
professional women. I will admit something. There are times maybe
we can get you on it. Dancing with the Stars.
I had a friend who was on it, who won it.
What I mean, I don't know him super well, but
I know him, Bobby Bones. Yeah, he's he's a radio host.
He does a syndicated morning show. He was on Dancing
with the Start. He was on Dancing with the Stars
and he won it. And we talked to him on
the phone as he was walking through the airport holding
the mirror Ball trophy because.
Speaker 1: He wanted a lot of practicing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that he was the most grateful,
But a lot of it was social media, and he
had big social media influence and stuff. But I will
watch sometimes West Coast Swing. I'll go on TikTok, which
is back, thank you President Trump for yeah, ninety days
ninety more days of TikTok at least, and I will
watch West Coast Swing. And there's something about just the
way people can move like that. And some of these
people don't look like they're in great shape. Do you
don't understand what I'm saying, which sounds weird, But they
don't look like they go to the gym a lot.
Some of them like they have a few extra LB's on.
Speaker 6: So you watching what what does his name? It's West
Coast Swing, West Coast Swing. I'll type it into TikTok
and and I'm Dick Clark. Yes the difference, Yes, yes, right, yeah,
it's got a nice speed. I can dance to it, right,
they said in American bandstep that is yeah. But I
always think like I don't know.
Speaker 2: As I have progressed in my journey, so to speak,
I do think that my philosophy has changed to more
of I'm realizing there's only two things. And I'll see
if you agree with this. There's only two things in
this world, and it comes down to one or the other.
One is love and one is fear. And it's kind
of like, what what's motivating you here? If it's coming
from you can get down to the root of love
is usually a kindness and an acceptance and a tolerance
to a certain extent, not saying that we need to boundaries, certainly,
but and the other is a fear of you know,
bigger locks, more guns, that kind of thing that we
get down that's all fear or afraid to do something
or a dislike of whatever is usually a fear. And
I think if you can kind of find out what
he's under the influence of, sometimes things can get better.
I have I don't know what to think of President Trump.
I have great hope for this. Seriously, I have great
hope for this.
Speaker 1: I really do. I think that we could be in
for great surprise of good things.
Speaker 5: I give you my analogy of this, Yeah, using my
son's comedy routine about a roller coaster. You get in
the car, yeah, and Trump hopefully is going to be
president before he was elected, so the bar comes down
and now you're going down and around the corner and
you get the and the anxiety of saying, what the
hell is going to happen if he gets elected? And
there now you get to the top and you look
down that first slope and say, holy crap, And there
it goes. Now you're going to have some swinging down,
down times and you're going to get to the bottom.
So you got another uptime and down again. And I
think that's the way any way of life. And you
go around and you're screaming, you're going back and forth.
It's a bumpy ride. But then you get to the
end and it stops and everybody says, yeah, let's do
it again.
Speaker 2: But that's what I'm saying, Like, I think you just
have to have an open mind.
Speaker 1: What happened.
Speaker 5: Nobody gave me an open mind. But he's a different person.
Speaker 2: Think.
Speaker 5: I think he's had a lot of struggles the first time,
and he learned what works and what doesn't work, on
how to work. He's a businessman. There's no getting around that.
Speaker 1: That's a uh.
Speaker 5: I can only I hopey pray that you know, it
works out for everybody, And I think that that's his
goal is for everybody.
Speaker 2: Not no I would say that that's probably true. I
would believe that, and I do. I think that I
hope everybody just kind of puts aside to let let's see,
let's see, you know. I mean, I start seeing like
with the you can't go jumping on his cabinet people
because we don't know what they're gonna do yet let
them get in there.
Speaker 1: Let's just there's going to be haters no matter what
I know. But you can change the world, can save poverty, hunger,
and people still wouldn't like him so well. I think
that when we have the majority of votes that he
had across America, I think people talked.
Speaker 2: I think that a lot of people have held the
office of the presidency to a higher decorum than President
Trump has displayed. I think that that's a fair thing
to say. And I think that when you go back
not that long ago, a guy who probably could have
been a great president of the United States will never know.
Gary Hark gets caught with a woman and we don't
let him in. Now, he couldn't even run. He was
out of the Democratic Party, the whole thing, and slowly
that's erode it. And it wasn't I believe me.
Speaker 1: Trump isn't the first we had Clinton doing and this
having ladies. Dude.
Speaker 2: I told this story about Clinton the other night, being
here on his first campaign. Yeah, yeah, Gary Craig, That's what.
Gary Craig was in here, a reporter for the DNC.
We did a one on one. He told me this
story about Clinton, that Jennifer Flowers stuff had just come out.
He's running for the first time, and I think he
had won the Democratic nomination or was about to. And
he comes to Rochester. He's at the Diplomat party house,
but they take the reporters and put them kind of
far away because they don't want questions about the Jennifer
Flowers case. Arkansas, right, Yes, yeah, so he said. The
head of the Democratic Party at the time, I don't
know his name. His daughter was strikingly attractive. And as
Gary said, I got out of where they had wardened
off the reporters and I got up to kind of
the rope as Clinton walked by. I was gonna be
able to kind of get close to him and maybe
shout a question. And he said, all of a sudden,
like he's not coming. All these people, he's not coming.
And I look down and he has stopped dead stop
and He's got this attractive girl who happens to be
the daughter of the head of the Democratic Party of
Monroe County holding her hand, and it goes, it was
like they were the only two in there.
Speaker 1: He goes, this guy didn't care, he.
Speaker 2: Just had all this Jennifer flowershit. There's something man and
some people that they just can't help it. And I
always say, and forgive my crudiness. David Pussy's got power
and he was a he was a magnet though. The
women just yeah, you know, yeah, I.
Speaker 5: Have a friend hes ninety three years old.
Speaker 1: Oh, pushing back together. No, no, no, no.
Speaker 5: This is when Jimmy Jimmy Carter came to town. Nobody
knew him when he came to Rochester and the October
Fest was on and they were holding it in the
old Edwards Building.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh Edward's Spaghetti warehouse.
Speaker 5: No, Edward's down on Main Street like siblings. Yeah, I'm sorry,
you're new to the country. So they it was Octoberfest
and there was a few beers going down and I
remember my friend saying, I had this guy come up
and tap me on his shoulder and I turned around
and he says, Hi, I'm Jimmy Carter, and I looked
at him and said, who gets his ship? And that
was his meeting with Jimmy Carter.
Speaker 2: But like I say, something's memorable. All right, Well take
a moment, we'll come back, we'll close out. Maybe we
have to have people. Do love a Doug intro? I
mean you know that, I know you do.
Speaker 1: I got one today.
Speaker 2: I did.
Speaker 1: I called. I couldn't tell if it was live or not.
I was waiting for the CD to load. Oh was
your music in the background. Yeah, you don't hear it?
The girls, girls, girls doing the intro.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you didn't hear it. I didn't hear the music.

the music was lost. But hey, I love the A

turn an eighty. I think it's a big deal. Is

they were great guys. Do a lot of great work.
Anybody check on Tommy Lee and see if his house
is still around after twelve fires in away.
Speaker 1: That guy's I'm stilts just with his dick alone. I
mean he could put out one of them out of
the fire. They put the palisades out. Unlike those electric
fire trucks. Do you hear those? It takes ten hours
to I did see.
Speaker 2: A story work the couple bought a fire truck in
Oregon and made some shirts and came down and tried
to get into a fire zone. But they're saying summer
reporting they were arsonists coming to light more fires from Oregon,
Like how do you convince your wife? Like, hey, honey,
I got a great idea. Let's go buy a fire
truck at an auction and then we're going to drive
it down to California. We're gonna light more fires.
Speaker 1: I did that. That's the way the story was coming off.
I don't know if it's exactly I interpreted god given
common sense of right and wrong.
Speaker 2: I have no idea. And you know, the bad part
is when you have a fire. And I know there
was a lot of talk about the fire hudreds and stuff.
But I talked to some people I know in LA
and they're like, yeah, but think about it. A fire
hydrant probably enough for your house and a couple others,
not the entire neighborhood. That's you know, going up there
one hundred mile an hour winds though, David, I mean
this shit just you know, it blows, and you're right.
I would say, why haven't the power lines been underground?
I don't know. I don't know if it has to
do with the rock that it's on or whatever. But

it's an interesting thing because I think for so long,
you know, marijuana being illegal and the devil's drug, and
now we have, I mean for pain and people to
get their appetite back when they're going through certain treatments
for cancer, and there's some real benefits to it.
Speaker 1: Or even some of the derivatives of it.
Speaker 2: CBD and things, right, are so beneficial.
Speaker 1: What were we doing for all these years?
Speaker 5: Well, you know, when I was younger and single, I

we moved down a whiskey river. But UH made a
manahatt and you put the vermooth ice and a glass,
yeah both, and you put it in a shaker, just
the ice, and you dump all the mooth that we
only have enough for mooth on the ice ice, and
it's whiskey and the little cherry juice and cherry.

you look back over eighty years and you sort of
touched on this already, so I'm repeating it, But what.

leg go let alone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I love it.
Speaker 5: I love about it.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: We call him the rock. His sisters referred to him
as a rock. We've had things that's happened, emotional things
for him to get up in front of people to talk,
whether it be one of an uncles that passed away
or whatever. It was one of my birthdays and they
give him the notes he need to get up there,
and you'd almost get through it.
Speaker 1: Almost. It's pretty good.
Speaker 2: But the rock, I think that's a pretty nice thing
to be referred to.
Speaker 5: My family sit there and listen to him, and I
just love it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think, And so does the sisters.
Speaker 5: They just they thank you.
Speaker 2: You're a lucky man, Doug. I am like, yeah, you are.
That's truly, you know.
Speaker 5: I always feel blessed.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do.
Speaker 2: It's been a great ride so far.
Speaker 5: It has been.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Fun, I'm looking.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 5: Nobody gets a ticket that says return on it. So
you gotta get.
Speaker 2: You gotta well, you don't want to live forever? I
mean you got.
Speaker 1: Well do you ever be anybody?
Speaker 5: I know?
Speaker 2: Let me ask you that. Yeah, that's true, that's true.
Speaker 1: Do you fear what's next?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: No, I I yeah, used to yep a lot of people.
Speaker 5: Now you take every everything that comes at you and
you enjoy it. Yeah, good or bad, good or bad
because you're still learning.
Speaker 2: It's an experience.
Speaker 5: It's it's what I tell him. I says, life is
an experience. Yeah, as simple as that. Getting old, getting
old is the experience.
Speaker 2: Well, what are the biggest as you notice as you've
gotten older, either either physically, mental, anything even attitude wise.
You don't seem to be the cranky old man get
off my lawn.
Speaker 5: I used to be. I don't know. They can tell you.
You'dn't have to ask my wife about that, Kathy.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 5: No, I've tried to be more mellow at certain things,
but I still catch myself in a trap.
Speaker 2: Well everybody does. Yeah, we ald habits die harder. I mean,
you get conditioned young, it just becomes the pattern.
Speaker 5: But you touched on something. I think the last four
years you've I've been just you don't want to say anything,
you know, to have people be offended. Why they'd be
offended because I like this person, you like that, Let's
be adult and be able to talk about it whatever.
I've had people that they're not friends anymore because I
like Trump and I'm saying, are you nuts?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 5: So that's the now with this coming I hope that
that's going to change for everybody. Yeah, and I don't
know if it's going to happen. There's going to be
a slow change. But there's some people that I couldn't
believe their attitudes and it seemed to have gotten worse.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think people were the majority have spoken, so
you know, that's all you need to say.
Speaker 5: And yeah, before that, you know, I don't know what
they were expecting our life. They weren't enjoying life. They
were taking everything so critical were.
Speaker 2: I have an odd belief that I do think that
there are certain laws. You know, there's law, the law
of gravity and things like that in the world, but
I think there's even metaphysical laws to a certain degree.
And I think sometimes when you push so hard against something,
you get more of it. I mean, even you know
what I'm saying, even in your own life, just take
it one thing, like if it's if it's money, and
I'm can't I get this way and it just seems
like it's ever elusive, ever elusive.
Speaker 1: What do you need there? Tissue?
Speaker 2: And uh, I just want or with the same thing
with him, like so many people pushing against, pushing against,
what do you get you get more of it, and
this time even more right, even more. I mean it
was a pretty overwhelming majority there spoke because I mean
one time you didn't win the popular vote, but you
won the electoral college. Right, well, now this.
Speaker 1: One both yeah, and there's both a house in right
right right?
Speaker 2: Let me changed everything?
Speaker 1: So I don't.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: And sometimes pendulum swing and sway, and when.
Speaker 2: I say things like I really want the best for everything,
and I hope. Look, that's what's in power. Either you're
in or you're out right, and I have a question
right against it, or you can try to make that I.
Speaker 1: Got a question.
Speaker 5: Yeah, how can you tell if somebody's head oral sex
with a chicken?
Speaker 1: I don't know, Doug, it's not coming, but I was.
Speaker 2: What But I love it.
Speaker 1: I love that, he I love I love it.
Speaker 5: You got to get off the subject of politics.

at all. But I just think that people, well you
