Speaker 3: Three three three three, and been a part of other
Speaker 3: many other things.
Speaker 1: I want to get to that too, But let's let's
Speaker 1: talk about you starting out, because everybody's got to start out.
Speaker 2: Open mics, I guess I don't do you. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, open mics were great, but you know what started starting?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm talking about as the person developing.
Speaker 3: But you know what, there were some times. You know,
Speaker 3: when you have when you have a great little three
Speaker 3: minutes or seven or whatever it is, you just you're
Speaker 3: on top of the world. You're like in everyone walking by,
Speaker 3: Hey man, that was great, right, you know, people shaking
Speaker 3: your hands. But there's those nights that you just that
Speaker 3: were horrible. And luckily I worked at that comedy club
Speaker 3: and that night you don't want to see any because
Speaker 3: people literally they're going, man, because there's somebody else. They
Speaker 3: were great, and they see you and they go do
Speaker 3: that you see the face go yeah, and and and
Speaker 3: when that would happen to me, I would go stand
Speaker 3: in the liquor room in empty bottles, but it was
Speaker 3: where the water heater was. I was just standing there
Speaker 3: till I knew everyone was out of the room. Horrible,
Speaker 3: horrible insecurities just unbelievable. But but when I started working
Speaker 3: on the road, you know, that was fun. And I'll
Speaker 3: tell you a fun little early road story. I was
Speaker 3: in Omaha, Nebraska. It's one thirty in the morning, and
Speaker 3: I'm uh, I've done my show. We've gone to see
Speaker 3: live music somewhere. So I'm buzzed, right, And this is
Speaker 3: pre Terry so uh, very young man, right, Terry. Yeah,
Speaker 3: Terry's my wife, thirty years and so this is thirty
Speaker 3: three years ago. And credit cards is just kind of
Speaker 3: every used to pay cash, of course, right, and and
Speaker 3: and then but it was kind of and and I
Speaker 3: had one and and I was at the Dennis late night.
Speaker 2: Everybody goes there, right, right.
Speaker 3: It's a drunk fest. Yes, it's it's you know, after
Speaker 3: after you know, the bars, clothes. Anyway, there's a hospital
Speaker 3: across the street. And uh. And when I went to
Speaker 3: sign my tab, I was by myself. The waitress kind
Speaker 3: of cute. She says, oh, nice signature. What are you
Speaker 3: a doctor or something? And I said, uh, yes, I am.
Speaker 3: I immediately elevated my statuses in this community that I
Speaker 3: did not live in, and and she goes, oh, that's awesome.
Speaker 3: Where I said, right, across the street. I'm one of
Speaker 3: the er doctors. She goes, that's awesome. We know a
Speaker 3: lot of the people from the hospital. She goes, girls
Speaker 3: to other waitresses, come meet the new doctor. And I
Speaker 3: was like, oh man, you know, I'm in deep. But
Speaker 3: I was also admiring myself and my new Uh you know,
Speaker 3: I'm a part of society. Sure, I'm digging this. I
Speaker 3: just I just got I just got promoted, and uh,
Speaker 3: but I also start thinking, you know, what odds are
Speaker 3: that at one third in the morning, that the Denny's,
Speaker 3: with the type of people that are there, somebody can
Speaker 3: have an episode.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you're right. You know.
Speaker 3: It was one of my new uh my stolen valor is.
Speaker 3: I was Tim Walls in it, everybody, That's what I
Speaker 3: was doing. It was Tim Walls in it. But I
Speaker 3: also started to think this could go horribly wrong because
Speaker 3: anybody can have an episode at this time of the
Speaker 3: night in this location.
Speaker 2: Thank god, there's a doctor here. Doctor, come on, you
Speaker 2: know what I would do?
Speaker 3: Can't you know? I'm that guy ain't gonna make it.
Speaker 4: Did you hear that story I did earlier Alex about
Speaker 4: the comedy club in London. They're banning people with botox
Speaker 4: from being in the audience because the comedians can't recognize reactions.
Speaker 3: Oh that's not a true story, that is, there's your
Speaker 3: political correctness right. Oh my god.
Speaker 1: We had a similar story, you all know Dave Moody.
Speaker 2: Sure, yes, Hairball.
Speaker 3: In Louisville.
Speaker 1: So me and another guy by the name of Scott
Speaker 1: Cook who is also in a band, but he's got
Speaker 1: yellow hair and blonde hair, you know, long hair, the
Speaker 1: whole bit. So we will always go to Iron Maiden shows.
Speaker 1: That's our thing, Eddie. So we're in Nashville, Tennessee. We
Speaker 1: walk into a bar. Whenever Dave Moody goes out anywhere
Speaker 1: to the show, he plays the part of a rock star.
Speaker 1: He dresses, he dresses like a rock star. It will
Speaker 1: take him twenty minutes. Yeah, Like we go to Chicago
Speaker 1: and we're wanting to walk from our car to the venue,
Speaker 1: and it takes him twenty minutes to.
Speaker 3: His hair car.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: So this particular time, we're in Nashville, Tennessee to see
Speaker 1: Iron Maiden and we're one of these bars that it's packed,
Speaker 1: and this girl comes up to me and they said,
Speaker 1: she goes, I'm sorry, who is that that you're with,
Speaker 1: and I said, well, that's Steve Harris, bass player for
Speaker 1: Iron Maiden. We're playing tonight, and oh yeah, and that
Speaker 1: point it's like Sammy Hagar is not an Iron Maiden.
Speaker 2: This is when I had short hair.
Speaker 1: Now point over Scott Cook and I said, and that's
Speaker 1: Dave Murray, guitar player.
Speaker 2: I said, we're just down here for a little bit
Speaker 2: and we're going back.
Speaker 3: It sounds, of course, why not.
Speaker 1: So now people in the bar start going over and
Speaker 1: taking pictures and selfies with him, and then I realized, hey,
Speaker 1: Ironed Maiden fans are going to be in here and
Speaker 1: we're gonna realize that's not Steve Harris or Dave Murray.
Speaker 1: So as the manager, I went and got him. I said, hey, folks,
Speaker 1: thanks for everything. We got to go right now. Let's
Speaker 1: enjoy the show home.
Speaker 2: We split.
Speaker 3: Have time very quick.
Speaker 2: Absolute yeah.
Speaker 3: Columbus funny Bone. Dave Carlo who you know, Dave Carlo
Speaker 3: dear hired me as a bartender originally at the original
Speaker 3: comedy club. First got to ever pay Ron White to
Speaker 3: do stand up comedy. And now he's a family friend.
Speaker 3: Knew my father before I knew Dave.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's a part of number one. But anyway,
Speaker 3: Dave Carlo is the manager of the Columbus Funny Bone,
Speaker 3: and he gets a phone call one week and someone says, hey,
Speaker 3: next week, the new kids. Uh uh yeah, new kids
Speaker 3: on the block are gonna be in in town and
Speaker 3: they'd love to sneak in. They'd love to watch commed show,
Speaker 3: but some of them aren't twenty one.
Speaker 2: Is that okay?
Speaker 3: He said, yes, of course, you make it happen. And
Speaker 3: he said, just show up ask for me. But then
Speaker 3: he remembered that he had seen in the newspaper there
Speaker 3: was a young lady who had health issues and she
Speaker 3: wanted to go to see the new kids on the
Speaker 3: block but couldn't because of her health.
Speaker 2: Is you super fan?
Speaker 3: And Dave was like, oh, I'm gonna put one Juan
Speaker 3: and wand together.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: He invites this girl and her mother and says, you
Speaker 3: get to meet the new kids on the block. Which happens.
Speaker 3: They take pictures after the back and you know, in
Speaker 3: the manager's office, all this stuff and and and and
Speaker 3: that's beautiful. So some people get it on the newspaper
Speaker 3: and uh. Some of the waitresses from the club's Funny
Speaker 3: Bone go home with the New Kids on the Block,
Speaker 3: jump jumping the limo, and guess they don't show up
Speaker 3: for work for four or five days. They're just gone.
Speaker 3: Cut to three weeks later, Dave Carlo in the newspaper
Speaker 3: get a call from the New Kids on the Block
Speaker 3: manager saying, what the hell that the New Kids on
Speaker 3: the Block were in some other city that night? That
Speaker 3: was not New Kids on the Block. Right, Oh my god, girl.
Speaker 3: And Dave said, that girl that was that was kind
Speaker 3: of sick. She kind of, he says, the whole time,
Speaker 3: she kind of didn't seem very grateful. A scam. And
Speaker 3: then the funniest part is the waitresses from the Funny Mountain.
Speaker 3: They're going, you know, four days.
Speaker 1: One real quick one and then we got to take
Speaker 1: a break. But Dave Moody also before Hairball and Thunderstruck,
Speaker 1: he played bass for Billy Ray Cyrus. Yeah, so he
Speaker 1: was friends with Miley Cyrus as well. There's video out
Speaker 1: there when when Miley Cyrus played the Young Center and
Speaker 1: so she texted Dave, Hey, Dave, are you playing anywhere tonight?
Speaker 1: I'm playing the Young Center, he said, on a place
Speaker 1: called Phoenix Hill. Yeah, Well she's not twenty one at
Speaker 1: the time, she's like nineteen, you know. So he gets
Speaker 1: with the owner of Phoenix Hill and says, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: you can come in. Ben lets him. But here's the kicker.
Speaker 1: It's Halloween night at Phoenix Hill, which was one of
Speaker 1: the biggest nights there. Yeah, but also you could wear
Speaker 1: a costume. So she shows up as Pocahontas. There's video
Speaker 1: out there. She gets on stage and sings, I Love
Speaker 1: rock and roll. Nobody knows who she is.
Speaker 2: Beautiful.
Speaker 1: Then later she's down there dancing. All right, let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break. Then we come back more with Alex.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you not now. Well, we come back, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Reeling in the years as next, who do we have?

Speaker 7: the plane starts backing up, he just lays down.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about you.
Speaker 3: Should get him a T shirt that just says I'm famous.
Speaker 3: Oh and that and that way. Anyone that might not
Speaker 3: be comfortable, they're like, hold on a second, this is cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So Representative Susan Tyler Whitten helped champion a bill called
Speaker 1: Ethan's Law. It finally passed. This is something that you've
Speaker 1: been working with her and others for years and years
Speaker 1: and years. Last year it passes. But even though it's
Speaker 1: become a fellony on a lot of these torture cases,
Speaker 1: judges are just dropping it down to misdemeanor charges. You've
Speaker 1: actually no pun intended. You're the watchdog on these judges.
Speaker 1: What's going on with Ethan's Law in some of the
Speaker 1: cases right now?
Speaker 7: Well, I'll point out that before it gets to the judges,
Speaker 7: it's generally county attorneys commonwealth attorneys who will tell you
Speaker 7: that they don't know about it. So we were able,
Speaker 7: lucky enough to get some time at the County Attorney's
Speaker 7: conference in Lexington a couple of weeks ago, set up
Speaker 7: a table, brought Ethan with us and had a copy
Speaker 7: of the bill, and everybody that came by we gave
Speaker 7: him a copy of the bill. A lot of them
Speaker 7: they knew about it. We gave them a copy anyway,
Speaker 7: But you just hear that a lot around the state
Speaker 7: as hey.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that.
Speaker 7: We even talked to three people there who were going
Speaker 7: to go back to their county and up the charges
Speaker 7: because it fit within the statue. They just didn't know
Speaker 7: about it. So we're doing everything we can to get
Speaker 7: the word out. There's another county Attorney's conference in August
Speaker 7: that we're going to go to, and I think we're
Speaker 7: actually going to speak at that one, but we go
Speaker 7: around to different places. There's a case tomorrow. The defendants
Speaker 7: are going to be in court tomorrow at ten point
Speaker 7: thirty in Scott County in Georgetown, and we're sort of
Speaker 7: asking a bunch of folks to come out. That is
Speaker 7: the case of Phoenix. The dog's original name was Blue.
Speaker 7: It was a county corso. It was re honed at
Speaker 7: about one hundred pounds in September September to third. It
Speaker 7: was turned over to the shelter mid January and weighed
Speaker 7: forty eight pounds. They started it died the next day.
Speaker 7: They started a dog to death. Initially, they turned the
Speaker 7: dog over, saying they found it on the side of
Speaker 7: the road, which was a lie. As her cousin then
Speaker 7: came in and said, no, no, no, that's their dog.
Speaker 7: Here's some pictures the dog in their home. They've been
Speaker 7: charged with filing a false report. They're going thankfully. Finally,
Speaker 7: there was a lot of emails phone calls made to
Speaker 7: the county attorney there. He eventually up the charges to felony. So, uh,
Speaker 7: they are being charged properly. I will throw this out
Speaker 7: there ahead of time. They don't have a record, so
Speaker 7: that you know when you go into court. That scares
Speaker 7: you a little bit for someone to say, hey, they've
Speaker 7: not done anything in the past, let's let's make it
Speaker 7: lenient for him. But I would offer this to the
Speaker 7: prosecutor or anybody that's listening. That dog didn't start to
Speaker 7: death by missing one meal r two meals, amen a
Speaker 7: week of meals. So there's a history, day after day
Speaker 7: after day. They made the decision when they looked at
Speaker 7: that dog not defeat them. That's their history of their decisions.
Speaker 7: Those people really should serve some prison time, not just
Speaker 7: jail time, prison prison time, or hopefully to see.
Speaker 3: Some of that when you talked about when you talked
Speaker 3: about it, they're being lenient. And then you said, the
Speaker 3: people that litigated you know that I always didn't know
Speaker 3: about that, you know, and so you tend they tend
Speaker 3: to give someone a break. I think there's a thing
Speaker 3: called accountability that you at on some point you have
Speaker 3: to go because ignorance of the law is right, you know,
Speaker 3: there's no excuse you should know better than not then
Speaker 3: to not feed something for a long period for any time.
Speaker 3: Sure you know, if it's yours, if you at one
Speaker 3: time you said I want that dog, I want that cat,
Speaker 3: I want that whatever I want that I want that,
Speaker 3: you know, And.
Speaker 7: Then and then to intentionally then hurt that dog in
Speaker 7: some way, whether you stop feeding them or you hurt
Speaker 7: the dog. There's a case in this guy is actually
Speaker 7: going back to court tomorrow too in Henry County, this
Speaker 7: guy Jacob Brown. And this is one of those cases
Speaker 7: where a while black I posted on Ethan's page and
Speaker 7: I said, pay attention to the ones that keep getting delayed.
Speaker 7: You don't see a date on there's a date and
Speaker 7: it gets moved. This guy took a hammer and beat
Speaker 7: his dog and killed it and then took a screwdriver
Speaker 7: and stabbed his other dog. The dog that they hit
Speaker 7: with a hammer died. This happened in October twenty twenty three,
Speaker 7: and it's been continued, pushed back so many times.
Speaker 1: If they'll do that to a dog, eventually, they're gonna
Speaker 1: take on a human beings at all.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and so.
Speaker 7: We're hoping that that finally gets stopped and this person
Speaker 7: sees his day in court. We went to court for
Speaker 7: him back in February, went into the court to sit
Speaker 7: in there. After about ten minutes, we got called out
Speaker 7: by the county attorney, her name is Cassidy D's, who
Speaker 7: told us that thanks for coming, but he's in jail
Speaker 7: in another county. He's not gonna be seen today. I'll
Speaker 7: let you know when something comes up. Found out later
Speaker 7: from the victim's advocate the next day he was in court.
Speaker 2: That much unbelievable.
Speaker 7: She just didn't tell us that he was in court,
Speaker 7: and hopefully it doesn't. He has had three cases of
Speaker 7: bond forfeiture hearing, so there have been three instances where
Speaker 7: they've said, hey, we need to bring that guy back
Speaker 7: in jail, and they've just continued it. Instead of having
Speaker 7: the hearing, they just continued it, so I wanted to
Speaker 7: put this out there. If you want to reach out
Speaker 7: the County Attorney Cassidy D's numbers five zero two eight
Speaker 7: four five four four eight one, feel free to reach
Speaker 7: out and ask her when this is gonna get taken.
Speaker 1: Jeff callaway, Ethan, Almighty God, bless you. Keep doing good
Speaker 1: for the neighborhood, keep being a voice for those that
Speaker 1: don't have a.
Speaker 2: Voice, and I'll see you down the road. And Ethan
