00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.060
Coffee Hour starts live in less than 10 minutes.

00:00:02.480 --> 00:00:15.000
Stand by. Here is Mike Vrabel. Let me first begin

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:18.719
by saying thank you. Thank you for your patience.

00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:22.320
Oh, we're so patient. Mike, we don't give a crap.

00:00:22.420 --> 00:00:25.160
You cheated on your wife. That you've shown in

00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:28.559
a personal and private matter. Oh yeah, it wasn't

00:00:28.559 --> 00:00:30.980
very private. I caught you cheating on your wife

00:00:30.980 --> 00:00:34.619
with a promiscuous reporter, bro. We ain't stupid.

00:00:34.979 --> 00:00:38.780
You weren't playing card games. For me and obviously

00:00:38.780 --> 00:00:41.479
everybody involved, I know that... Yeah, your

00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:44.340
wife that you cheated on. That's not easy for

00:00:44.340 --> 00:00:47.640
you, and I respect that, and I appreciate your

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.679
efforts in doing... What efforts? You put in

00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:53.880
no effort. You have a failed marriage. I think

00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:57.240
so. I understand I could have addressed you guys

00:00:57.240 --> 00:00:59.939
sooner. Yeah, but you're a coward. You claim

00:00:59.939 --> 00:01:03.359
to be a man of the people. You claim to be relatable

00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:08.180
to Patriots fandom. But you're a loser. In the

00:01:08.180 --> 00:01:10.560
Super Bowl and in life. But it was important

00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:13.540
to me to have a conversation with the players,

00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:15.879
which I did yesterday. Oh yeah, you guys know

00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:19.540
how you cheated on your wife? I did too. Very

00:01:19.540 --> 00:01:23.000
candidly, as we began our off -season program.

00:01:23.739 --> 00:01:26.920
Oh, yeah. Next year, the Chiefs are going to

00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:29.280
have Eric Biennemi back. You ain't going anywhere.

00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:31.920
Which everyone is excited to be a part of. You're

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.400
a one -year wonder, and you should have won.

00:01:36.299 --> 00:01:39.079
Stacey had mentioned the players' availability,

00:01:39.340 --> 00:01:42.359
and it was never my intention to have them speak

00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:45.859
to you or address you before I did. Oh, yeah.

00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:48.319
You should have said this a week ago. But you

00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:51.859
hid and had your GM talk for you. Because not

00:01:51.859 --> 00:01:54.700
only are you a coward as a father and as a man,

00:01:54.739 --> 00:01:57.780
as a husband, you're a coward as a coach. And

00:01:57.780 --> 00:02:01.959
so I asked him to come today and to talk with

00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:06.480
you. Yeah. You don't know what to say because

00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:09.199
you're lying. And the whole Patriots media kisses

00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:11.740
your ass. I also don't want to take away from

00:02:11.740 --> 00:02:15.509
our, you know. The draft, the weekend of the

00:02:15.509 --> 00:02:18.990
draft. Oh, the important things. No, this is

00:02:18.990 --> 00:02:21.810
an important time for us. Oh, is it? And our

00:02:21.810 --> 00:02:24.310
organization and the excitement and the joy that

00:02:24.310 --> 00:02:26.849
those players are going to have that we bring

00:02:26.849 --> 00:02:30.069
onto our football team. You are so boring. No

00:02:30.069 --> 00:02:33.129
wonder you lost it at Seahawks. They're starting

00:02:33.129 --> 00:02:36.830
an amazing journey. Shut up. One that should

00:02:36.830 --> 00:02:40.270
be celebrated. You applaud Diana Rossini and

00:02:40.270 --> 00:02:43.650
we know it. As we welcome them onto our team.

00:02:45.289 --> 00:02:50.430
You're no worse, dude. You're hiding. You think

00:02:50.430 --> 00:02:53.289
you're above us. You think you're better than

00:02:53.289 --> 00:02:56.310
us. But you're another mortal human being with

00:02:56.310 --> 00:03:00.110
a failed marriage. And you think you're so wise.

00:03:00.550 --> 00:03:06.669
Oh, the wise of Mike Vrabel. Shut up. With that

00:03:06.669 --> 00:03:11.129
being said. Yeah. You know. You got nothing to

00:03:11.129 --> 00:03:13.469
say. You're lying. Whenever someone has to take

00:03:13.469 --> 00:03:16.629
20 seconds to talk, they're lying. I've had some

00:03:16.629 --> 00:03:18.990
difficult conversations with. Oh, honey, I was

00:03:18.990 --> 00:03:21.210
cheating on you. The people that I care about

00:03:21.210 --> 00:03:23.349
with my. You don't care about them. You care

00:03:23.349 --> 00:03:25.310
about them. You want to applaud Diana Rossini.

00:03:25.550 --> 00:03:28.629
Family, the organization, the coaches, the players.

00:03:30.389 --> 00:03:32.810
Those have been positive and productive. Shut

00:03:32.810 --> 00:03:36.099
up. You know, we believe in order to be successful

00:03:36.099 --> 00:03:38.900
on and off the field, you have to make good decisions.

00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:41.879
Yeah, you loved when you were having sex with

00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:44.159
her, but you just got caught. That includes me.

00:03:44.219 --> 00:03:49.400
Shut up! Starts with me. You never want our actions

00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.259
to negatively affect the team. It didn't affect

00:03:52.259 --> 00:03:57.659
the team. It infected your marriage, dude. Whatever.

00:04:03.340 --> 00:04:06.599
Now to FBI Director Kash Patel. Drunken loser!

00:04:07.310 --> 00:04:10.189
speaking about his $250 million defamation suit

00:04:10.189 --> 00:04:13.169
against the Atlantic Magazine. If you're having

00:04:13.169 --> 00:04:16.470
to sue a magazine about you being a drunk, even

00:04:16.470 --> 00:04:18.449
though we saw you chugging beer with the hockey

00:04:18.449 --> 00:04:21.930
team, takes on taxpayers' money like a loser.

00:04:22.050 --> 00:04:25.629
We know you're a drunk. Denying charges. Of course

00:04:25.629 --> 00:04:27.230
he's going to deny it. What's he going to say?

00:04:27.290 --> 00:04:30.750
I'm a drunken idiot. For behavior in an article

00:04:30.750 --> 00:04:34.269
published about him. He just looks like a drunk.

00:04:34.389 --> 00:04:36.269
You look at him. Investigative correspondent

00:04:36.269 --> 00:04:39.110
Aaron Katurski has that story for us. Oh, I love

00:04:39.110 --> 00:04:41.750
when Aaron reports. Good morning, Aaron. Good

00:04:41.750 --> 00:04:43.709
morning, Robin. The FBI director defended his

00:04:43.709 --> 00:04:46.250
job performance and denounced claims about his

00:04:46.250 --> 00:04:48.569
drinking, saying... Well, let's be honest. He

00:04:48.569 --> 00:04:51.689
has been awful. He's never been drunk at work.

00:04:51.910 --> 00:04:55.209
Ha, ha, ha! Shut up! You weren't technically

00:04:55.209 --> 00:04:59.459
at work with the Olympic team, you scumbag! This

00:04:59.459 --> 00:05:02.060
morning, FBI Director Kash Patel is taking aim

00:05:02.060 --> 00:05:07.060
at the Atlantic, which published claims of unexplained

00:05:07.060 --> 00:05:10.079
absences, impulsive decision -making, and excessive

00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:12.639
drinking. I've never been intoxicated on the

00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:15.160
job. Of course you have, and you probably bang

00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:18.379
women. This is why we filed a $250 million defamation

00:05:18.379 --> 00:05:21.240
lawsuit. Why are your eyes always bulging out

00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:25.040
of your head? Because you're drunk, you scumbag.

00:05:28.620 --> 00:05:31.519
$50 million defamation lawsuit, and any one of

00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:33.939
you that wants to participate, bring it on. I'll

00:05:33.939 --> 00:05:36.399
see you in... I'll see you in court! So you're

00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:38.240
going to have to go through a deposition, or

00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:40.199
you're going to have to go under oath in court.

00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:43.100
Patel is now suing for defamation and lashing

00:05:43.100 --> 00:05:45.819
out at reporters. I can say... Drunken douchebag!

00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.839
Unequivocally, that I never listen to the fake

00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:53.060
news mafia. Oh, the mafia! You're the mafia!

00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:56.860
You work for the mafia, you douchebag. And as

00:05:56.860 --> 00:05:58.860
when they get louder, it just means I'm doing

00:05:58.860 --> 00:06:01.680
my job. Oh, yeah, you're totally killing it.

00:06:05.300 --> 00:06:07.560
Senator Kornickle said members of his security

00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:10.459
detail had difficulty waking Patel because he

00:06:10.459 --> 00:06:13.560
was seemingly intoxicated. He just looks like

00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:16.160
that dude that was a loser on the playground.

00:06:16.699 --> 00:06:20.220
Everyone beat up and he got a power trip. Also

00:06:20.220 --> 00:06:22.639
said a request for breaching equipment normally

00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:25.399
used by SWAT and hostage rescue teams to quickly

00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:27.939
gain entry into buildings was made last year

00:06:27.939 --> 00:06:31.060
because Patel had been unreachable behind locked

00:06:31.060 --> 00:06:35.500
doors. Patel's boss, Acting Attorney General

00:06:35.500 --> 00:06:38.540
Todd Blanche, another kiss -ass loser, said he

00:06:38.540 --> 00:06:41.019
had not read the article but disputed its contents.

00:06:41.339 --> 00:06:43.560
Oh, so how are you going to dispute it if you

00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.220
haven't read it? You're all a bunch of liars.

00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:56.069
Shut up! You mega kiss asses. likes to cook for

00:06:56.069 --> 00:06:58.709
the family. Dave Grohl opens up about his home

00:06:58.709 --> 00:07:01.370
life with his wife and kids. Oh, the wife he

00:07:01.370 --> 00:07:05.949
cheated on. He reminds me of morning radio hosts

00:07:05.949 --> 00:07:08.670
that cheat on their wife, but they try to control

00:07:08.670 --> 00:07:11.310
the narrative like, oh, it was an accident when

00:07:11.310 --> 00:07:13.829
I completely had sex with a woman and completed

00:07:13.829 --> 00:07:17.329
the task. Two years after fathering a child outside

00:07:17.329 --> 00:07:21.149
his marriage. And I'm sure he's totally not a

00:07:21.149 --> 00:07:24.910
deadbeat dad. The Foo Fighters front man reveals

00:07:24.910 --> 00:07:27.189
how he reconnects with his loved ones including

00:07:27.189 --> 00:07:30.870
wife jordan and their three kids oh yeah i'll

00:07:30.870 --> 00:07:33.850
be honest i posted a rant about uh dave kroll

00:07:33.850 --> 00:07:36.350
and some woman that claimed she had sex with

00:07:36.350 --> 00:07:38.750
him now i'm not gonna say she did but she knew

00:07:38.750 --> 00:07:43.089
a lot about jordan and supposedly jordan allegedly

00:07:43.089 --> 00:07:46.709
in another world was originally a side chick

00:07:47.850 --> 00:07:51.509
So he loves his side chicks. It's 20 -year -old

00:07:51.509 --> 00:07:54.029
Violet May, 17 -year -old Harper Willow, and

00:07:54.029 --> 00:07:56.790
11 -year -old Ophelia Saint after being out on

00:07:56.790 --> 00:07:59.370
the road. Dave tells the Dish podcast during

00:07:59.370 --> 00:08:02.290
its April 22nd episode. Well, the first thing

00:08:02.290 --> 00:08:05.910
I do when I come home from being on tour is bang

00:08:05.910 --> 00:08:08.980
another woman and knock them up. I like to cook

00:08:08.980 --> 00:08:12.240
for the family. Now he's being so likable. And

00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:14.759
these kiss -ass interviewers that are happy to

00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:17.180
have him. Let the celebrities say what they want

00:08:17.180 --> 00:08:19.699
to say. If I was there, I'd be like, when you

00:08:19.699 --> 00:08:21.939
come home from a tour, do you bang your sidekick?

00:08:22.339 --> 00:08:25.139
So, I love to get straight into the kitchen.

00:08:25.339 --> 00:08:27.220
Oh, yeah. Whether it's making a roast. And you

00:08:27.220 --> 00:08:29.959
like getting in other women, dude. Having kids.

00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:33.879
Just over the weekend. Or it's a pasta. I usually

00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:35.940
like. You see how he's trying to be the fan?

00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:39.059
Family man now. He used to almost never talk

00:08:39.059 --> 00:08:41.840
about his family, but now he's a family man.

00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:45.440
Bring the comfort. I'm home, and I bring the

00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.460
comfort to the kids. And you comfort your side

00:08:48.460 --> 00:08:51.000
chicks you cheat on your wife with, and you're

00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:53.279
not even responsible enough to get a vasectomy.

00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:55.659
However, Grohl's family life hasn't been without

00:08:55.659 --> 00:08:58.240
its ups and downs. A little bit more of downs

00:08:58.240 --> 00:08:59.980
when you're going down to help him get ready.

00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.259
With him sharing in September 2024 that he welcomed

00:09:03.259 --> 00:09:05.700
a fourth daughter outside of his marriage. Can

00:09:05.700 --> 00:09:07.740
you imagine being a daughter and you're the product

00:09:07.740 --> 00:09:11.129
of a side chick? He wrote on Instagram at the

00:09:11.129 --> 00:09:13.830
time, I plan to be a loving and supportive parent

00:09:13.830 --> 00:09:16.070
to her. Oh, you're going to be so great. You're

00:09:16.070 --> 00:09:18.289
going to teach her morals. I love my wife and

00:09:18.289 --> 00:09:20.990
children, and I'm doing everything I can to regain

00:09:20.990 --> 00:09:23.889
their trust and earn their forgiveness. He reminds

00:09:23.889 --> 00:09:27.049
me of Tampa Morning Radio. Is it a rock band?

00:09:27.490 --> 00:09:29.269
Thinks he's better than people and cheats on

00:09:29.269 --> 00:09:31.870
his wife. Oh, wait. Did I say that out loud?

00:09:32.129 --> 00:09:36.110
Tampa Morning Radio is so loyal. They never do

00:09:36.110 --> 00:09:44.009
that. They're great people. Tiffany Hanyard.

00:09:45.529 --> 00:09:49.590
She's the worst. She's a heck. She's terrible.

00:09:50.049 --> 00:09:52.129
Well, Terrence, Tiffany Hanyard. We're saying

00:09:52.129 --> 00:09:55.110
her name again here in Dalton. Can Tiffany Hanyard

00:09:55.110 --> 00:09:58.690
just go away? She's the absolute worst. She makes

00:09:58.690 --> 00:10:01.429
women look bad. She makes everyone look bad.

00:10:01.610 --> 00:10:03.990
She makes human beings look bad. She's probably

00:10:03.990 --> 00:10:06.509
the reason aliens haven't visited. They're like,

00:10:06.590 --> 00:10:08.570
I don't want to be on the same planet as Tiffany

00:10:08.570 --> 00:10:28.750
Henniard. She's a liar. She has fake hair. She

00:10:28.750 --> 00:10:30.710
has a fake personality. Of course she would lie.

00:10:31.250 --> 00:10:35.490
Moved to Fulton County last May. She was still

00:10:35.490 --> 00:10:38.730
technically mayor of Dalton and being paid as

00:10:38.730 --> 00:10:41.470
mayor of Dalton. But she moved there and she

00:10:41.470 --> 00:10:43.250
wants to remain on the ballot. And they looked

00:10:43.250 --> 00:10:46.450
at her case. Oh, Georgia, you got to deal with

00:10:46.450 --> 00:10:49.049
that moron. And they approved. They said she

00:10:49.049 --> 00:10:51.679
can't stay on the ballot in Fulton. Enjoy that,

00:10:51.700 --> 00:10:54.399
Georgia. You got backwards laws and you let a

00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.779
backwards politician join. So she's running for

00:10:58.779 --> 00:11:01.840
county commissioner in their primary next month

00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.940
and she is running as a Republican. Oh, yeah.

00:11:05.179 --> 00:11:08.860
She was so Democratic in Illinois. She's fake

00:11:08.860 --> 00:11:11.720
like Trump. She began as a Democrat and became

00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:15.799
a Republican to Greg. Because she knows she was

00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:18.320
kicked out of Illinois and she needed to go somewhere.

00:11:18.740 --> 00:11:25.320
If you're calling yourself super mayor, you're

00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:31.879
a loser. She tried, but she failed because she's

00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:38.100
a moron. She makes other people of color look

00:11:38.100 --> 00:11:46.000
bad. If you're a fan of tiffany henyard you have

00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:49.299
the iq of two and she was investigated by the

00:11:49.299 --> 00:11:51.960
fbi for government spending by former mayor federal

00:11:51.960 --> 00:11:55.440
prosecutor lori lightfoot an independent investigation

00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:58.899
yeah when you have lori lightfoot looking into

00:11:58.899 --> 00:12:02.600
you being corrupt which lori lightfoot was corrupt

00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:06.299
that's weird lightfoot found that the henyard

00:12:06.299 --> 00:12:09.000
administration ran up credit cards and And spent

00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:10.860
without keeping track of what they were buying.

00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:13.799
Here in Dalton, the residents know that she brought

00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:16.379
attention to their town and they were polite.

00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:18.820
And made the town look bad. And if you're polite

00:12:18.820 --> 00:12:21.259
towards her, you're pretty much endorsing her.

00:12:21.679 --> 00:12:25.240
When finding out, Hanyard is running again. Why

00:12:25.240 --> 00:12:27.620
is everyone in Illinois so nice to her? She's

00:12:27.620 --> 00:12:42.779
a moron. Again, okay. learn because she was Democratic

00:12:42.779 --> 00:12:45.960
in Illinois and now she's Republican in Georgia.

00:12:46.139 --> 00:12:51.639
She's a moron. She's a liar and a failure. I'm

00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:54.340
not going to let you talk. You're defending your

00:12:54.340 --> 00:12:57.059
own kind and that's fine, but she's not going

00:12:57.059 --> 00:12:59.679
to learn because she was never Republican and

00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:03.620
now she's Democratic. She's lying like this moron.

00:13:10.250 --> 00:13:14.629
Oh yeah, we are live in Minneapolis. Let's get

00:13:14.629 --> 00:13:30.710
into it. Welcome to Hoppy Hour. Doors closing.

00:13:31.169 --> 00:13:33.909

Oh, yeah. What's up? I am live from Minneapolis.

856 -49 -HAPPY. It's 856 -494 -6773. You can

tweet at me at RiotHappyRadio. You can always

email me. RiotHappyRadio at gmail .com. We have

00:15:19.899 --> 00:15:23.120
so much we need to catch up on. But you know.

00:15:24.250 --> 00:15:26.929
Every Friday. Well, every Monday, when I remember,

00:15:27.190 --> 00:15:32.230
we do a case of the Mondays. But on Fridays,

00:15:32.429 --> 00:15:36.990
we got to do this, ladies and gentlemen, boys

00:15:36.990 --> 00:15:45.850
and girls. Hold up. My mom's in there. She about

00:15:45.850 --> 00:15:49.889
to go to work, though. Hey, I know you don't

00:15:49.889 --> 00:15:53.139
smoke weed. I know this. But I'm going to get

00:15:53.139 --> 00:15:56.919
you high today. Because it's Friday, you ain't

00:15:56.919 --> 00:15:59.740
got no job, and you ain't got shit to do. One

00:15:59.740 --> 00:16:05.220
more time. Hold up. My mom's in there. She about

00:16:05.220 --> 00:16:09.259
to go to work, though. Hey, I know you don't

00:16:09.259 --> 00:16:12.519
smoke weed. I know this. But I'm going to get

00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:16.279
you high today. Because it's Friday, you ain't

00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:19.919
got no job, and you ain't got shit to do. It

00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:24.049
is Friday, and... I am in Minnesota on kind of

00:16:24.049 --> 00:16:26.629
a business trip and hanging out with my good

00:16:26.629 --> 00:16:32.309
friend, Allie. But we'll get to that. But today's

00:16:32.309 --> 00:16:35.669
Friday. So Wednesday night, I was going to this

00:16:35.669 --> 00:16:40.470
place called Smoke Depot in Illinois to get kava.

00:16:41.580 --> 00:16:43.659
And it was kind of a nice drive because you're

00:16:43.659 --> 00:16:45.580
going through like Harwood Heights, which is

00:16:45.580 --> 00:16:48.240
right outside the city of Chicago. And that's

00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:50.419
how I used to drive to see my grandpa. So it

00:16:50.419 --> 00:16:52.940
was very nostalgic for me. But the thing, ladies

00:16:52.940 --> 00:16:55.940
and gentlemen, boys and girls, was the fact that

00:16:55.940 --> 00:16:58.600
because I kept going in, they said to me, hey,

00:16:58.740 --> 00:17:03.159
would you want this edible? I said, is it an

00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:09.140
indica? And they go, no, this edible is a hybrid.

00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:13.109
And they go, okay, whatever. so i go home record

00:17:13.109 --> 00:17:16.970
happy hour the you know drunken show i did and

00:17:16.970 --> 00:17:22.509
um i go you know what it's time to do the edible

00:17:22.509 --> 00:17:26.569
of course i was not done editing my podcast and

00:17:26.569 --> 00:17:28.390
what was funny was there's a radio guy who's

00:17:28.390 --> 00:17:30.930
very nice his name is ryan gibbons he worked

00:17:30.930 --> 00:17:33.029
on the danny bonaduce show for many years and

00:17:33.029 --> 00:17:37.809
i worked with sarah over there in um seattle

00:17:37.809 --> 00:17:42.759
and um I tagged him. You know how in all my social

00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:44.859
media posts I go, check it out. Is Ryan Hoppy

00:17:44.859 --> 00:17:48.839
of Hoppy Hour? Yeah. I tagged him. So he didn't

00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:50.660
reply. I don't know what you would say to a video

00:17:50.660 --> 00:17:54.839
of me ranting about Tiffany Hanyard. But here

00:17:54.839 --> 00:18:00.460
we are. And my mom was watching Chicago Fire.

00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:02.940
She loves her Chicago Fire and Chicago PD shows.

00:18:03.740 --> 00:18:09.240
And my mom, it was quite funny. My mom, I wanted

00:18:09.240 --> 00:18:12.640
to talk to her. And my mom kind of told me to

00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:17.259
shut up. I kept talking. She was trying to watch

00:18:17.259 --> 00:18:20.420
her show. So you know what happened? I stopped

00:18:20.420 --> 00:18:24.779
talking. And then the edible was really beginning

00:18:24.779 --> 00:18:29.359
to hit me. So that was when I went to bed. And

00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:33.380
I literally slept 12 hours. The last time I slept

00:18:33.380 --> 00:18:35.960
that long after taking an edible was when I was

00:18:35.960 --> 00:18:38.700
on my Kelta cruise. Only that time I forgot how

00:18:38.700 --> 00:18:44.720
to cut steak. That was very weird. 856 -49 -HAPPY.

00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:49.859
That's 856 -494 -6773. You can tweet at me at

00:18:49.859 --> 00:18:54.579
Ryan Happy Radio. What else do we got here? So

00:18:54.579 --> 00:18:59.720
my plane yesterday was postponed because of thunderstorms

00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:06.119
in Minneapolis. And what was funny was there's

00:19:06.119 --> 00:19:08.779
two parts. So I was supposed to get to Minneapolis

00:19:08.779 --> 00:19:11.460
at nine and then my friend Allie would pick me

00:19:11.460 --> 00:19:15.680
up. But no, I got to Minneapolis at 11 p .m.

00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:19.539
And poor Allie had to be up at 4 a .m. to work

00:19:19.539 --> 00:19:26.440
at her job. So she goes to work. And then what

00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:30.160
happens is. There's this radio show I absolutely

00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:32.279
love and they're edgy, but they're Minnesota

00:19:32.279 --> 00:19:35.740
nice. It's called the 93X Half -Assed Morning

00:19:35.740 --> 00:19:37.779
Show and it's over at Cumulus and they've been

00:19:37.779 --> 00:19:41.680
on air 27 years. And I've been emailing Josh

00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:44.279
over the years, like talking about the Timberwolves

00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:47.099
or whatever. And he said, if you're ever in town,

00:19:47.259 --> 00:19:49.420
we would love to give you a tour. So that picture

00:19:49.420 --> 00:19:51.519
is on Ryan Hoppy Radio. You can see how giddy

00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:53.579
I am because I've met a lot of my favorite radio

00:19:53.579 --> 00:19:56.529
shows and a lot of them were very rude. bunch

00:19:56.529 --> 00:19:59.089
of douchebags so it's very nice to meet somebody

00:19:59.089 --> 00:20:03.569
that was nice to me but uh also going back to

00:20:03.569 --> 00:20:06.609
my flight to minneapolis it was fascinating last

00:20:06.609 --> 00:20:10.509
night we landed like i don't know 10 20 and we

00:20:10.509 --> 00:20:12.470
had to wait on the tarmac for like 15 minutes

00:20:12.470 --> 00:20:15.750
they never said why but some firemen literally

00:20:15.750 --> 00:20:18.730
were on the plane and now it was a little off

00:20:18.730 --> 00:20:24.119
-putting so that happened What else do I got

00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:27.319
here? This trip was humbling too. Like when I

00:20:27.319 --> 00:20:31.480
was at 93X, they were asking me about radio and

00:20:31.480 --> 00:20:34.220
it was cool and whatnot. But when I'm in Illinois,

00:20:34.579 --> 00:20:39.119
my family does not care about my radio career.

00:20:39.420 --> 00:20:43.440
They care about me and it's refreshing. But it's

00:20:43.440 --> 00:20:45.720
also kind of like, oh, well, I do this and that.

00:20:45.819 --> 00:20:47.859
And they're like, no, we love you for who you

00:20:47.859 --> 00:20:52.299
are. Relax. Especially the love I feel. the sadness

00:20:52.299 --> 00:20:57.079
though, when I go to visit, um, so I had a funeral

00:20:57.079 --> 00:21:00.000
and out of the funeral at a, uh, cemetery across

00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:06.599
the block from, uh, Harper college. Uh, my uncle

00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:09.799
Ken, my Bapa, when I had a hard time seeing grandpa,

00:21:09.900 --> 00:21:12.140
he died in 99. And then my uncle Bob that died

00:21:12.140 --> 00:21:15.460
in 2018. They're all buried in, like, the same

00:21:15.460 --> 00:21:17.500
area. And then they got a plaque that they split.

00:21:17.859 --> 00:21:19.940
And then my dad's right there. And then my mom's

00:21:19.940 --> 00:21:22.279
going to be there when she dies in 32 years and

00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:26.839
lives to 100. So it's very weird when you just

00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:29.559
see, like, oh, my dad's been dead for 12 years.

00:21:29.660 --> 00:21:32.240
Or, oh, my uncle already two years. So that was

00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:35.140
humbling, too. Not just, you know. Being somewhere

00:21:35.140 --> 00:21:37.920
where people know me for me and not radio. But

00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:40.000
the whole trip was fascinating. But give us a

00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:42.980
call. 856 -49 -HAPPY. You might notice I'm not

00:21:42.980 --> 00:21:45.200
as rambunctious today. I can't be because I'm

00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:48.119
in a basement right now. I don't want to freak

00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:50.700
out the neighbors. So we're going to play some

00:21:50.700 --> 00:21:54.339
of the... Shut up, Sophie. We are going to do

00:21:54.339 --> 00:22:01.039
this thing where we play the celebrity news clips.

00:22:03.019 --> 00:22:05.180
Sorry, I'm texting somebody and being rude. Here

00:22:05.180 --> 00:22:07.839
is Sophie Rain saying that men come up to her

00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:10.319
and touch her in public. A lot of people think

00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:12.200
that's just come up to me and touch me whenever

00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:14.559
they want to. Have people tried that? 100 % people

00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:18.099
have. And I think that's definitely like a con

00:22:18.099 --> 00:22:20.140
that I'd like to say out there. Like, obviously,

00:22:20.180 --> 00:22:22.319
these men, they see you online. And when they

00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:23.839
see you in person, they're obviously going to

00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:26.259
think that they can do anything. Yeah, the problem

00:22:26.259 --> 00:22:28.640
is when you're putting out content, you're putting

00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:33.119
out. Literally and figuratively, the guys get

00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.380
a parasocial jerk -off relationship. And it's

00:22:37.380 --> 00:22:38.980
just not okay to just go up and touch someone

00:22:38.980 --> 00:22:40.700
randomly. I just don't think that's okay regardless

00:22:40.700 --> 00:22:42.920
if I'm up. I don't like this comment from some

00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:45.339
incel. If you shake your ass for cash online,

00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:48.539
don't cry when strangers touch it. It's a job.

00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:53.019
They have to do taxes on it. Mm -hmm. You can't

00:22:53.019 --> 00:22:54.819
just go up to a basketball player at the airport

00:22:54.819 --> 00:22:57.160
and go, hey, you want to shoot the hoops? Online

00:22:57.160 --> 00:22:59.650
or not. But a lot of my fan interactions are

00:22:59.650 --> 00:23:02.029
actually really great. Like a lot of them just

00:23:02.029 --> 00:23:04.670
know me from TikTok. And they'll come up. They'll

00:23:04.670 --> 00:23:06.250
ask for a picture. They'll ask what I'm doing

00:23:06.250 --> 00:23:09.069
here. How's my day going? I'll normally ask them

00:23:09.069 --> 00:23:10.529
what's a good place to go around here because

00:23:10.529 --> 00:23:13.089
most of the times they're locals. And it's great.

00:23:13.170 --> 00:23:15.269
I love meeting new people. Yeah, you love meeting

00:23:15.269 --> 00:23:18.869
new people. I'm still confused if she's a virgin

00:23:18.869 --> 00:23:24.029
or not. Here is an interesting headline right

00:23:24.029 --> 00:23:30.500
here. Fabulous. Breathe. Oh, you got to breathe.

00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:33.779
One and a two, two, two, and a three, three,

00:23:33.779 --> 00:23:37.299
three. Well, here he is, Fabulous, talking about

00:23:37.299 --> 00:23:39.339
an awkward moment he had with Kim and Kanye.

00:23:41.339 --> 00:23:43.240
Oh, you know, I did this once a show where I

00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:47.420
have Instagram muted. My bad. Here we go. Kanye,

00:23:47.559 --> 00:23:49.779
and we was going to some, like a game his kids

00:23:49.779 --> 00:23:52.880
had. And when we first got there, we walk in

00:23:52.880 --> 00:24:19.849
there. Mm -hmm. He probably thinks he's better.

00:24:20.490 --> 00:24:23.430
Than fabulous. Although I'd rather hang out in

00:24:23.430 --> 00:24:25.549
the club with fabulous. If I'm being honest.

00:24:25.910 --> 00:24:29.150
Here is Jada Pinkett Smith saying she won't divorce

00:24:29.150 --> 00:24:31.630
well. Everybody's always like, why don't you

00:24:31.630 --> 00:24:35.410
just get divorced? And it's like, that's like

00:24:35.410 --> 00:24:40.839
quitting. Yeah, that's that boomer thing. I don't

00:24:40.839 --> 00:24:43.920
think there's any person that could embrace the

00:24:43.920 --> 00:24:47.880
best and the worst of me and be able, be willing

00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:52.519
to hold space in the way that will hold space

00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:55.160
for me and the way that I hold space for him.

00:24:55.359 --> 00:24:59.460
There's no greater mirror I could have. than

00:24:59.460 --> 00:25:02.579
Will. He doesn't, I can't, I can't get around

00:25:02.579 --> 00:25:05.539
myself just like he can't get around himself

00:25:05.539 --> 00:25:09.180
with me. Would it be easier to go and find somebody

00:25:09.180 --> 00:25:11.940
else and have a more pleasing, more comfortable

00:25:11.940 --> 00:25:15.099
relationship? Maybe. But would that get me to

00:25:15.099 --> 00:25:18.059
the person? She's the worst. She literally is

00:25:18.059 --> 00:25:23.599
Fish Mooney, the character she played. 8 -5 -6

00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:29.369
-49 Hoppy. 8 -5 -6 -4 -9 -4 -6 -7 -7 -3. This

00:25:29.369 --> 00:25:32.170
is an interesting headline here. Let me pause

00:25:32.170 --> 00:25:37.490
this. All right. Jaguar star Travis Hunter. His

00:25:37.490 --> 00:25:41.750
wife, Leanna, gives advice to players, girlfriends,

00:25:41.910 --> 00:25:45.869
and wives. The Wags. I see a couple girls doing

00:25:45.869 --> 00:25:51.490
advice for girls who are adults to go to the...

00:25:51.490 --> 00:25:53.190
Turn down that music, honey. What the hell are

00:25:53.190 --> 00:25:58.000
you doing? So here's my advice. Don't... I'm

00:25:58.000 --> 00:25:59.980
getting the camera because if you get the camera

00:25:59.980 --> 00:26:04.660
like too much, you are an attention whore. And

00:26:04.660 --> 00:26:10.900
what are you? And you want this to. All right.

00:26:10.920 --> 00:26:13.339
I can't listen to that. I think they just had

00:26:13.339 --> 00:26:15.519
a kid. That might be like the kids music in the

00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:22.970
background. It's kind of. Someone that hosts

00:26:22.970 --> 00:26:26.170
a podcast that's known as rich and unemployed

00:26:26.170 --> 00:26:29.690
was sentenced to seven years in prison. Oh, goody,

00:26:29.690 --> 00:26:34.309
goody gumdrops. What an idiot. What else do we

00:26:34.309 --> 00:26:37.609
have here? Nicki Minaj is expected to attend

00:26:37.609 --> 00:26:39.869
this weekend's White House Correspondents Dinner.

00:26:40.190 --> 00:26:42.410
Probably, you know, have sex with Trump after.

00:26:43.289 --> 00:26:46.869
Okay, I saw this headline here and I thought

00:26:46.869 --> 00:26:49.569
this was repulsive. I like blue face. I think

00:26:49.569 --> 00:26:53.130
it's music. It's utter trash. But I respect his

00:26:53.130 --> 00:26:55.470
brand. I think he's kind of funny. I think he's

00:26:55.470 --> 00:26:59.289
kind of entertaining. Mm -hmm. But here's the

00:26:59.289 --> 00:27:03.650
problem with Blueface. He's still got that, like,

00:27:03.690 --> 00:27:06.430
thug energy in him. Someone you wouldn't want

00:27:06.430 --> 00:27:10.109
your daughter to date. By the way, I got my Mitra

00:27:10.109 --> 00:27:13.769
9 cava right here. Let's open it up. Oh, yeah,

00:27:13.789 --> 00:27:19.619
let me drink it. Okay. So Blueface said something

00:27:19.619 --> 00:27:23.059
interesting. He defends his parenting skills.

00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:27.299
Says he will not hit a child, but will beat the

00:27:27.299 --> 00:27:30.180
F out of a grown -ass bitch. Ah, father of the

00:27:30.180 --> 00:27:34.059
year. Three -year -old. Bro, bro. Three -year

00:27:34.059 --> 00:27:38.740
-old, I don't beat little girls up. But I'll

00:27:38.740 --> 00:27:42.180
beat the fuck out of a grown -ass. Domestic abuse.

00:27:42.339 --> 00:27:49.279
You're a bitch. You got the IQ of 40. Because

00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:51.220
you should know better. You will get fought back.

00:27:51.359 --> 00:27:53.559
I mean, she don't know better. She's still adjusting

00:27:53.559 --> 00:27:57.920
to her emotions, you know, you know, being irrational

00:27:57.920 --> 00:28:03.019
and just, you know. But you grown, bitches. You'll

00:28:03.019 --> 00:28:05.700
get fought back. All right, there you go. What

00:28:05.700 --> 00:28:08.160
a smart guy. I'm sure he's a high school graduate.

00:28:10.900 --> 00:28:14.000
He's a real rocket scientist. That blue face.

00:28:15.019 --> 00:28:17.920
Donald Trump claims he has a bigger crowd than

00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:22.059
Martin Luther King Jr. The memorial has a beautiful

00:28:22.059 --> 00:28:25.279
reflecting pond or lake. They call it a pool

00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:31.240
lake and pond. The word reflecting is a good

00:28:31.240 --> 00:28:35.559
term. It was built in 1922 and it was built out

00:28:35.559 --> 00:28:52.700
of granite and various stones. All right, damn.

00:28:53.660 --> 00:28:57.720
What a weird guy. He thinks so highly of himself

00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:01.000
for looking like a douchebag. He welcomes two

00:29:01.000 --> 00:29:04.799
-year -old... Travis Smith, who was born deaf

00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:07.940
but now can hear after taking Miracle Cure. Announcing

00:29:07.940 --> 00:29:10.740
that the FDA has just approved a new drug from

00:29:10.740 --> 00:29:15.900
Regeneron called Otarmony, a gene therapy curing

00:29:15.900 --> 00:29:18.759
a rare disease that causes deafness. Why do you

00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:23.380
say it? Deaf. People are totally deaf and it's

00:29:23.380 --> 00:29:27.200
deaf. It's amazing. I've seen some work on it.

00:29:27.259 --> 00:29:28.880
It's actually hard to believe we're going to

00:29:28.880 --> 00:29:31.160
talk about it in a minute. Normally cures for

00:29:31.160 --> 00:29:33.769
rare disease. I'm surprised he can read. It can

00:29:33.769 --> 00:29:38.170
cost millions of dollars and really the results

00:29:38.170 --> 00:29:40.990
aren't that good. What about grocery prices and

00:29:40.990 --> 00:29:45.230
gas prices? But in this case, I'm pleased to

00:29:45.230 --> 00:29:48.369
say that Regeneron will be giving this away for

00:29:48.369 --> 00:29:52.029
free for a period of time. The kid's like, shut

00:29:52.029 --> 00:29:56.089
up. I hate you. You do good things once in a

00:29:56.089 --> 00:29:58.690
while. And then Meg is like, see, he's great.

00:29:59.789 --> 00:30:02.109
he'll do one good thing and a mag is like see

00:30:02.109 --> 00:30:07.269
um we'll talk about this later but ex -michigan

00:30:07.269 --> 00:30:10.839
coach sharon moore's mistress page silver said

00:30:10.839 --> 00:30:14.740
uh she had complete he had complete control over

00:30:14.740 --> 00:30:18.339
her career and emotions so pretty much the ex

00:30:18.339 --> 00:30:21.259
-coach of michigan sharon moore his side chick

00:30:21.259 --> 00:30:24.579
page silver says he had complete control over

00:30:24.579 --> 00:30:27.500
here over her every time i tried to pull away

00:30:27.500 --> 00:30:31.140
he always had a way to pull me back in i don't

00:30:31.140 --> 00:30:34.299
know what it is about these women especially

00:30:34.299 --> 00:30:39.910
when they're side chicks who Cannot take accountability.

00:30:40.309 --> 00:30:45.490
It's everybody else's fault. It's kind of sad.

00:30:46.609 --> 00:30:49.529
Like you literally ruined a marriage. You literally

00:30:49.529 --> 00:30:52.930
ruined your career there. But hey, no one gets

00:30:52.930 --> 00:30:58.210
me. I'm a victim. Shut up. You didn't mind when

00:30:58.210 --> 00:31:00.490
you were going up and down on him and he was

00:31:00.490 --> 00:31:05.740
giving you all the perks. What is BBC? And I

00:31:05.740 --> 00:31:07.660
ain't talking about the British Broadcasting

00:31:07.660 --> 00:31:12.059
Company. But you loved it in the moment. Because

00:31:12.059 --> 00:31:14.619
it made you cool. Because you're a cloud chaser.

00:31:14.759 --> 00:31:17.779
Now, you're like, I don't want to address it.

00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:22.859
Shut up. Although she is hot. But this is going

00:31:22.859 --> 00:31:25.240
to follow her forever. When she has kids in the

00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:26.619
future, they're going to be like, Mommy, why

00:31:26.619 --> 00:31:31.559
are you so stupid? Because I am. I have a chance

00:31:31.559 --> 00:31:33.619
to succeed in life, but as of right now, I'm

00:31:33.619 --> 00:31:36.799
just a dumb Gen Z kid. That was in high school

00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:38.980
during COVID, so I'm all mentally messed up.

00:31:40.140 --> 00:31:43.119
But you know she's fun in bed. Oh, that singer

00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:46.700
D4VD David had underage porn on his phone. That's

00:31:46.700 --> 00:31:51.480
just what you want to hear. Jada Pinkett Smith

00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:54.500
is asking a judge to force bylaw sellout to pay

00:31:54.500 --> 00:31:57.599
the attorney fees. I saw this headline here.

00:31:58.279 --> 00:32:01.319
And I love narcissists, not literally, but figuratively.

00:32:01.460 --> 00:32:06.720
I love when a good narcissist, when they claim

00:32:06.720 --> 00:32:09.460
to be your friend and you started a job and they're

00:32:09.460 --> 00:32:11.599
trying to recruit you and they're trying to be

00:32:11.599 --> 00:32:14.339
nice, but then when it's time to pony up money

00:32:14.339 --> 00:32:18.799
or give opportunities, they don't. And why am

00:32:18.799 --> 00:32:21.720
I saying that? Because I saw this headline here

00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:24.180
and it shows how much of a coward Call Her Daddy

00:32:24.180 --> 00:32:27.079
and her stupid husband is. So the Unwell Network,

00:32:27.380 --> 00:32:29.319
which is properly named because everyone there

00:32:29.319 --> 00:32:33.460
is unwell. Alex Cooper and her husband skipped

00:32:33.460 --> 00:32:37.039
an all hands -on staff meeting after allegations

00:32:37.039 --> 00:32:42.079
of bad behavior. Things might be a bit unwell

00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:43.940
in Alex Cooper's world. She and her husband.

00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:47.140
Douchebag Matt Kaplan reportedly skipped an all

00:32:47.140 --> 00:32:49.319
-hands -on meeting following gripes about his

00:32:49.319 --> 00:32:52.940
behavior. Onwell's chief marketing officer, T

00:32:52.940 --> 00:32:56.039
.J. Marchetti, held the meeting and discussed

00:32:56.039 --> 00:32:59.119
the continued expansion of the company. I bet

00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:02.000
he was just talking numbers and how their downloads

00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:08.039
went up 400%. Here's the funny part. Is this

00:33:08.039 --> 00:33:12.140
guy right here her husband? is one of those like

00:33:12.140 --> 00:33:14.420
pretty boys where you know he's nice to the people

00:33:14.420 --> 00:33:17.319
that can do something for him but to any of the

00:33:17.319 --> 00:33:19.579
underlings he was saying i'll make sure you never

00:33:19.579 --> 00:33:22.799
succeed in hollywood you're a sociopathic loser

00:33:22.799 --> 00:33:25.619
if you view things that way like if you really

00:33:25.619 --> 00:33:28.420
care that much if someone succeeds that's because

00:33:28.420 --> 00:33:31.039
deep down you know you might have had a career

00:33:31.039 --> 00:33:34.059
before alex cooper but without alex cooper no

00:33:34.059 --> 00:33:36.720
one really knows who you are no one really cares

00:33:36.720 --> 00:33:40.019
who you are But then you got to bang Alex Cooper

00:33:40.019 --> 00:33:42.680
and work for the biggest podcast in the world.

00:33:42.740 --> 00:33:45.019
And now you're acting like the man. Man, funk

00:33:45.019 --> 00:33:48.579
that. At the end of the day, you are going to

00:33:48.579 --> 00:33:50.660
die someday. And people are going to remember

00:33:50.660 --> 00:33:54.180
you as a liar and as a failure and as a scumbag.

00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:56.819
Now, you're not failing at the company. You're

00:33:56.819 --> 00:34:00.579
doing quite well. But as a human being with a

00:34:00.579 --> 00:34:04.529
heart, you are a failure. and when I heard that

00:34:04.529 --> 00:34:06.769
Alex Cooper has ghostwriters when she talks about

00:34:06.769 --> 00:34:09.429
sex, it really makes you wonder if she's any

00:34:09.429 --> 00:34:13.289
good in bed, which she probably isn't. There's

00:34:13.289 --> 00:34:15.710
this headline here. Here is Snooki talking about

00:34:15.710 --> 00:34:23.590
her cancer diagnosis. Oh, if this video wants

00:34:23.590 --> 00:34:26.389
to do this. All right, right here. Oh, I had

00:34:26.389 --> 00:34:29.489
not. TMZ muted. Here we go. The reality star

00:34:29.489 --> 00:34:32.869
is all grown up and facing a very real -life

00:34:32.869 --> 00:34:36.849
challenge. And it came back, stage one, cervical

00:34:36.849 --> 00:34:40.010
cancer. You must have been terrified. I was terrified.

00:34:40.130 --> 00:34:42.349
I was hysterically crying in my car, like, what

00:34:42.349 --> 00:34:44.849
am I going to do? I have three kids. I got to

00:34:44.849 --> 00:34:46.809
do my will. I haven't done my will yet. I'm,

00:34:46.829 --> 00:34:49.070
like, thinking about all these things. Nicole,

00:34:49.170 --> 00:34:51.429
who is unvaccinated, believes she could have

00:34:51.429 --> 00:34:54.010
avoided the diagnosis had she gone to her doctor

00:34:54.010 --> 00:34:58.570
-recommended follow -up visits. I just kept putting

00:34:58.570 --> 00:35:00.809
it off. I didn't like it. I would make it a year

00:35:00.809 --> 00:35:03.670
and a half. And then he calls me again, and he's

00:35:03.670 --> 00:35:05.789
screaming in my voicemail, Nicole, you've got

00:35:05.789 --> 00:35:08.789
to get this done. Snooki, come on! Do you have

00:35:08.789 --> 00:35:11.969
a lot of regret? I do. Like, why were you so

00:35:11.969 --> 00:35:14.710
scared? Nicole recently underwent a PET scan

00:35:14.710 --> 00:35:17.289
where the results thankfully showed her cancer

00:35:17.289 --> 00:35:20.610
had not spread. All right, well, I'm rooting

00:35:20.610 --> 00:35:22.630
for you, Snooki. I literally grew up watching

00:35:22.630 --> 00:35:28.300
you on TV. 856. 49 Hoppy. Oh, we forgot to do

00:35:28.300 --> 00:35:29.659
this in the beginning, but we're just kind of

00:35:29.659 --> 00:35:33.159
free. I don't know. Free balling is a word. I

00:35:33.159 --> 00:35:34.860
don't know what the hell I'm trying to say. It

00:35:34.860 --> 00:35:38.639
is time for the thing. No, it is Hoppy's inbox.

00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:42.639
It's time for Hoppy's inbox. Only on Hoppy Hour

00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:45.960
with Ryan Hoppy. Oh, yeah. My inbox blew up.

00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:53.199
All right. Let's see what we got here. Ryan,

00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:55.380
that is so cool that you got to visit the first

00:35:55.380 --> 00:35:59.340
station you ever worked at, WHCM 88 .3. Time

00:35:59.340 --> 00:36:02.480
flies. Are things much different? It was a little

00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:05.780
different there. What was different was the technology.

00:36:05.900 --> 00:36:08.159
It's like in the 2020s. When I was there, it

00:36:08.159 --> 00:36:11.880
was 2010 technology, and I loved it. Next message.

00:36:12.000 --> 00:36:15.639
My old boss, Dave DeLuger, who we first didn't

00:36:15.639 --> 00:36:17.199
really like each other, but I was kind of an

00:36:17.199 --> 00:36:20.139
immature brat. And now we're good. He goes, it's

00:36:20.139 --> 00:36:22.519
changed a lot since then, huh? I thought that

00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:26.019
was funny. I did a video about that douchebag

00:36:26.019 --> 00:36:29.079
Green Bay radio host Otis Day. And someone said,

00:36:29.199 --> 00:36:31.900
your show in this video is underrated. I will

00:36:31.900 --> 00:36:35.559
come back to watch again. and then on a video

00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:38.780
about tiffany henyard people go hopefully georgia

00:36:38.780 --> 00:36:42.099
will learn the lesson that illinois learned oh

00:36:42.099 --> 00:36:50.360
yeah time to go through everything happening

00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:55.699
in the room it's all happening all right i know

00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:02.219
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is heading to

00:37:02.219 --> 00:37:06.219
Orange County. Oh, yeah. I feel like the Real

00:37:06.219 --> 00:37:08.760
Housewives are probably not that good and bad.

00:37:08.780 --> 00:37:10.880
They probably don't bring it, but these Mormon

00:37:10.880 --> 00:37:13.960
girls seem like they're fun. Hulu's Get Real

00:37:13.960 --> 00:37:17.559
House Live on April 22nd. A spinoff show is in

00:37:17.559 --> 00:37:19.960
the works. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Orange

00:37:19.960 --> 00:37:22.739
County will center on a new cast of mom talkers

00:37:22.739 --> 00:37:25.380
in Southern California. The cast includes Macy

00:37:25.380 --> 00:37:27.659
Neely's sister. I hate that term, mom talker.

00:37:27.659 --> 00:37:31.699
It sounds so douche. I'm a mom talker. Mm -hmm.

00:37:32.659 --> 00:37:44.300
Good for you, honey. Ah, they're a bunch of hot

00:37:44.300 --> 00:37:46.780
-ass women I've never heard of. But I'm sure

00:37:46.780 --> 00:37:49.219
there's plenty of people out there that'll love

00:37:49.219 --> 00:37:55.559
them. Oh, what's going on here? Speaking of...

00:37:56.460 --> 00:38:00.539
Crazy Mormon bronze. There might be a slight

00:38:00.539 --> 00:38:02.800
glimmer of hope regarding Taylor Frankie Paul's

00:38:02.800 --> 00:38:04.980
season of The Bachelorette ever seeing the light

00:38:04.980 --> 00:38:08.860
of day. It was so stupid that they canceled it.

00:38:09.360 --> 00:38:10.840
Especially if you're going to bring it back.

00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:13.900
But you know there's so many dudes that are probably

00:38:13.900 --> 00:38:18.199
trying to get famous. There were so many dudes

00:38:18.199 --> 00:38:19.739
that are like, you know what? Please bring it

00:38:19.739 --> 00:38:22.099
back. I want to be famous. I want to be famous.

00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:25.880
But don't expect it on TV screens anytime soon.

00:38:26.380 --> 00:38:30.559
It's going to be all news. She's going to have

00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:33.340
bang like 12 years since then. The vice president

00:38:33.340 --> 00:38:36.159
of Unscripted for Walt Disney TV, Rob Mills,

00:38:36.360 --> 00:38:38.380
tells The Wrap in an interview published. Well,

00:38:38.400 --> 00:38:41.659
that's the problem. They're being skanks on that.

00:38:41.719 --> 00:38:46.670
It's one thing. But Disney, not so much. That

00:38:46.670 --> 00:38:53.570
means we're trying to hope it goes away. The

00:38:53.570 --> 00:39:00.030
charges have already been dropped. You should

00:39:00.030 --> 00:39:01.809
have it when they're all on their cycle. That'd

00:39:01.809 --> 00:39:06.340
make for good entertainment. franchise he adds

00:39:06.340 --> 00:39:08.420
they are sort of really still processing everything

00:39:08.420 --> 00:39:11.099
and figuring it out yeah you know it's kind of

00:39:11.099 --> 00:39:12.719
hard because we saw the video of her beating

00:39:12.719 --> 00:39:15.280
the crap out of her family but hey at least the

00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:19.000
criminal charges were dropped the important things

00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:21.699
it made it clear that first and foremost honestly

00:39:21.699 --> 00:39:24.480
just making sure that taylor her family everyone

00:39:24.480 --> 00:39:27.440
is being taken care of just yeah the man wasn't

00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:30.380
taken care of when he got beat up but hey why

00:39:34.190 --> 00:39:40.010
Today on TNZ. Andy Collin. He went scorched earth.

00:39:40.369 --> 00:39:45.329
On Joe Rogan. Yeah, Andy Collin is just... I

00:39:45.329 --> 00:39:47.210
was listening to Howard Stern, the time of all

00:39:47.210 --> 00:39:49.650
the celebrities he brings in. He thinks he's

00:39:49.650 --> 00:39:53.550
better than you. Dared to endorse Spencer Pratt

00:39:53.550 --> 00:39:55.969
for mayor. I love Spencer Pratt. I think he'd

00:39:55.969 --> 00:39:58.929
be so funny as mayor. I mean, Carabass ain't

00:39:58.929 --> 00:40:04.400
it, dog? Mm -hmm. Rogan. An idiot. Why does he

00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:06.699
call Joe Rogan stupid? Why is Joe Rogan stupid?

00:40:06.980 --> 00:40:09.380
It's this virtue signaling because he doesn't

00:40:09.380 --> 00:40:11.320
agree with his views. Why not engage with Joe

00:40:11.320 --> 00:40:13.139
Rogan's ideas rather than just call Joe Rogan

00:40:13.139 --> 00:40:14.699
an idiot? Because that's America these days.

00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:18.179
And Andy Cohen's played into it. Oh, yeah. Andy

00:40:18.179 --> 00:40:20.360
Cohen. I like him. I respect how he does not

00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:25.539
show his kids' faces. Let it in, son. Mm -hmm.

00:40:26.590 --> 00:40:30.309
We just received the autopsy report in Celeste

00:40:30.309 --> 00:40:33.389
Rivas' death, for which David is now charged

00:40:33.389 --> 00:40:36.309
with her murder. And there were two wounds in

00:40:36.309 --> 00:40:40.570
particular. They believe that they may be penetrating

00:40:40.570 --> 00:40:44.230
wounds, which would not be wounds to dismember

00:40:44.230 --> 00:40:47.230
a body. Yeah, it's not really that good. Indication

00:40:47.230 --> 00:40:49.570
seems to me that some sort of knife was plunged

00:40:49.570 --> 00:40:52.619
into her, and it left just smooth edges. LeBron

00:40:52.619 --> 00:40:54.719
James. A lot of people think that this is his

00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:57.260
last year. So what happened? It is not his last

00:40:57.260 --> 00:40:59.199
year. You really think a narcissist like him

00:40:59.199 --> 00:41:00.960
is not going to have a goodbye party at every

00:41:00.960 --> 00:41:03.400
freaking game? Does he retire? Or could he go

00:41:03.400 --> 00:41:05.920
back to Cleveland? We talked to Iman Shumpert.

00:41:05.960 --> 00:41:07.980
Iman Shumpert won a championship with LeBron

00:41:07.980 --> 00:41:10.579
in Cleveland. Do you want to see LeBron go back

00:41:10.579 --> 00:41:12.900
to Cleveland? Did Iman Shumpert win a championship?

00:41:13.659 --> 00:41:20.760
I didn't know that. I did not think he won a

00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:24.360
championship. Let me see here. Yeah, he won in

00:41:24.360 --> 00:41:26.719
2016. I thought he did not know he's on that

00:41:26.719 --> 00:41:29.619
team. That would be the coolest story. Okay,

00:41:29.619 --> 00:41:31.239
what happens to Bronny? Bronny would have to

00:41:31.239 --> 00:41:32.800
go to Cleveland, too. Pack your bags. It will

00:41:32.800 --> 00:41:34.760
be said, whenever LeBron does announce his retirement,

00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:36.360
Bronny will pop up behind him going, I'm retiring,

00:41:36.500 --> 00:41:43.280
too. Kim Kardashian, Lewis Hamilton, they're

00:41:43.280 --> 00:41:46.280
on the beat. Oh yeah, they're making out. They're

00:41:46.280 --> 00:41:48.219
making out. They're in the ocean making out.

00:41:48.280 --> 00:41:50.500
Who makes out still anyway? Making out is nasty.

00:41:50.739 --> 00:41:53.699
Making out is nasty? You just go to third base

00:41:53.699 --> 00:41:55.900
right away? Wait, is third base boobies? No.

00:41:56.480 --> 00:41:59.679
Oh geez, that's a good old mouth egg. Mm -hmm.

00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:02.539
I love that term. The Billy Madison show says

00:42:02.539 --> 00:42:11.579
mouth egg. Tracy, give me a mouth egg. Mm. I

00:42:11.579 --> 00:42:15.000
slipped her an Altoid. Not as a joke, but I thought

00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:17.280
she might want one. George W. Bush. Michelle

00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:20.280
Obama probably has bad breath. Probably someone's

00:42:20.280 --> 00:42:23.059
like broccoli. Bush believes he knows why his

00:42:23.059 --> 00:42:26.099
friendship with Michelle Obama always makes headlines.

00:42:26.559 --> 00:42:29.559
It's almost like we should get along even despite

00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:33.730
the differences in politics. The former president

00:42:33.730 --> 00:42:36.250
sat down with daughter Jenna Bush Hager for a

00:42:36.250 --> 00:42:39.590
Today Show exclusive ahead of the USA's 250th

00:42:39.590 --> 00:42:42.849
anniversary and recalled his reaction to a viral

00:42:42.849 --> 00:42:46.429
2018 moment with the then first lady. The pair

00:42:46.429 --> 00:42:48.590
had been sitting together at John McCain's funeral

00:42:48.590 --> 00:42:51.670
when Bush was spotted handing Obama what... All

00:42:51.670 --> 00:42:56.769
right, so you gave them an altoid. Mm -hmm. That

00:42:56.769 --> 00:42:59.869
is such a loveless relationship right there between...

00:43:00.730 --> 00:43:03.449
Obama and Michelle. I think there's more love

00:43:03.449 --> 00:43:07.110
between Bush and Michelle. No! Happy Hot Topic!

00:43:08.469 --> 00:43:11.070
5 .56 on a Thursday morning. Here's a look at

00:43:11.070 --> 00:43:13.730
what's in the mix. A legal battle is now targeting

00:43:13.730 --> 00:43:16.090
the biggest YouTuber on the planet. Mr. Beast,

00:43:16.210 --> 00:43:18.489
who's... Yeah, he creeps me out, man. He looks

00:43:18.489 --> 00:43:22.489
like a sociopath. Real name is Jimmy Donaldson.

00:43:22.550 --> 00:43:25.869
What a nerd. Facing a lawsuit from a former employee.

00:43:25.969 --> 00:43:29.070
A rich nerd. Over alleged workplace misconduct.

00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:33.460
What a good guy. I'm not at all. You don't look

00:43:33.460 --> 00:43:36.059
at him and go, oh, yeah, that's my homie. Mm

00:43:36.059 --> 00:43:41.900
-hmm. No! Happy Hot Topic! Madonna is asking

00:43:41.900 --> 00:43:44.699
for help in locating a piece of pop history.

00:43:45.199 --> 00:43:48.619
Oh, yeah, Madonna. Man, heard Sabrina Carpenter

00:43:48.619 --> 00:43:51.179
perform. That had to be so surreal for Sabrina

00:43:51.179 --> 00:43:56.480
Carpenter. And also, Madonna looks freaking great

00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:59.539
for her age. Following her surprise performance

00:43:59.539 --> 00:44:02.320
with Sabrina Carpenter during the final weekend

00:44:02.320 --> 00:44:05.960
of Coachella 2026, the 67 -year -old announced

00:44:05.960 --> 00:44:08.539
that the vintage outfit she wore for the set

00:44:08.539 --> 00:44:13.159
had gone missing. Oh, yeah. It's good lingerie,

00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:14.940
but lingerie's stupid because you just end up

00:44:14.940 --> 00:44:20.000
having sex anyway. Mm -hmm. What's going on with

00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:25.219
this freaking loser? Whoa! Happy Hot Topic! David's

00:44:25.219 --> 00:44:28.440
legal journey continues. The singer, whose real

00:44:28.440 --> 00:44:30.920
name is David Anthony Burke, appeared in court

00:44:30.920 --> 00:44:33.420
three days after he was charged with one count

00:44:33.420 --> 00:44:36.219
of murder, one count of continuous sexual abuse

00:44:36.219 --> 00:44:39.300
of a child under the age of 14, and one count

00:44:39.300 --> 00:44:42.019
of unlawful mutilation of human remains regarding

00:44:42.019 --> 00:44:46.480
the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. He has

00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:49.099
pleaded not guilty to all charges. Could you

00:44:49.099 --> 00:44:52.489
imagine if he just pleaded to it? Also, no defense

00:44:52.489 --> 00:44:54.829
of him, but I think he was touched as a kid.

00:44:54.869 --> 00:44:57.170
There's something that happened in David's life

00:44:57.170 --> 00:45:00.550
that made him a weirdo. Or maybe he's just a

00:45:00.550 --> 00:45:04.230
bad guy. During the April 23rd hearing, per NBC

00:45:04.230 --> 00:45:07.070
News, Deputy District Attorney for Los Angeles

00:45:07.070 --> 00:45:09.909
County, Beth Silverman, alleged the prosecution

00:45:09.909 --> 00:45:12.789
has discovered a, quote, significant amount of

00:45:12.789 --> 00:45:15.849
child sex abuse images on an iCloud account belonging

00:45:15.849 --> 00:45:18.679
to David. As of the time of the hearing... What

00:45:18.679 --> 00:45:20.900
a dummy. I mean, I'm glad he got caught. I'm

00:45:20.900 --> 00:45:23.440
glad he's a dummy, but let me just put underage

00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:26.099
video on this thing anyone can access. Only one

00:45:26.099 --> 00:45:28.480
terabyte of the eight on the account had been

00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:33.599
downloaded. Gross. He just looks like a sociopath

00:45:33.599 --> 00:45:39.210
with those eyes on him. He creeps me out. Teddy

00:45:39.210 --> 00:45:41.909
Mellencamp says her doctor refused her GLP -1

00:45:41.909 --> 00:45:44.329
request. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

00:45:44.329 --> 00:45:46.690
alum has been fighting stage four melanoma for

00:45:46.690 --> 00:45:50.030
over three years. And on an April 23rd episode

00:45:50.030 --> 00:45:53.269
of our Two Teas in a Pod podcast, she told co

00:45:53.269 --> 00:45:56.610
-host Dolores Catania she asked her doctor if

00:45:56.610 --> 00:45:59.050
she could start the weight loss drug. Aye, and

00:45:59.050 --> 00:46:04.130
she didn't. Oh, did she? Eight, five, six. 49

00:46:04.130 --> 00:46:06.010
Hoppy. Today's sidetrack news is going to be

00:46:06.010 --> 00:46:08.170
off the freaking wall. It's going to be crazy.

00:46:09.550 --> 00:46:13.210
We'll have that in a second. Bucky's is closing

00:46:13.210 --> 00:46:15.730
a location in Texas and everyone's freaking out.

00:46:16.630 --> 00:46:20.130
Chloe Cherry does not like, she does porn and

00:46:20.130 --> 00:46:22.690
she was on Euphoria originally and does not like

00:46:22.690 --> 00:46:25.010
Sidney Sweeney's scenes dressed up as a dog.

00:46:25.190 --> 00:46:30.230
And Nikki Glaser moved back to St. Louis. So

00:46:30.230 --> 00:46:32.570
there's that. Let me see what else we got here.

00:46:33.320 --> 00:46:35.440
We just talked about Teddy Mellencamp. I'm literally

00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:38.019
recording on a bed right now. And I got the podcast

00:46:38.019 --> 00:46:40.099
board to the left and my laptop on my lap. So

00:46:40.099 --> 00:46:50.780
that's why we're kind of just vibing. Oh, you

00:46:50.780 --> 00:46:58.719
mean the false documentary or movie that, you

00:46:58.719 --> 00:47:00.559
know, takes out the biggest part of Michael's

00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:03.449
life? even though he was found innocent. And

00:47:03.449 --> 00:47:06.510
about a feud between her siblings, Janet Jackson.

00:47:06.610 --> 00:47:09.769
You know that's one messed up family. And Jermaine

00:47:09.769 --> 00:47:12.510
Jackson. Telling Entertainment Tonight on the

00:47:12.510 --> 00:47:15.809
red carpet, there was absolutely no problem whatsoever,

00:47:15.929 --> 00:47:18.989
and please believe it. We're not going to believe

00:47:18.989 --> 00:47:22.030
it, honey. Because your family's so messed up.

00:47:22.409 --> 00:47:24.469
It's crazy how many of them are still alive.

00:47:24.949 --> 00:47:28.739
This is trending. Actress Meredith Salinger supports

00:47:28.739 --> 00:47:31.840
her husband Patton Oswalt's desire to honor his

00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:34.639
late wife, Michelle Mack. That was a weird marriage.

00:47:34.800 --> 00:47:37.039
People were claiming he got her murdered or whatever.

00:47:37.440 --> 00:47:40.460
He's just a weird guy. Although he was funny

00:47:40.460 --> 00:47:43.510
on King of Queens. McNamara on the anniversary

00:47:43.510 --> 00:47:46.210
of her passing, and is defending her support

00:47:46.210 --> 00:47:49.630
to critics. In an Instagram post April 21st,

00:47:49.650 --> 00:47:51.929
Patton commemorated the anniversary of his former

00:47:51.929 --> 00:47:54.230
partner's passing, sharing a sweet throwback

00:47:54.230 --> 00:47:56.730
photo of him and Michelle with the caption, 10

00:47:56.730 --> 00:47:59.469
years gone, miss you baby. And Meredith, who

00:47:59.469 --> 00:48:02.369
has been married to Patton since 2017, joined

00:48:02.369 --> 00:48:04.650
in on praising Michelle, calling her a beauty,

00:48:04.730 --> 00:48:08.190
who is smart, cool, and brave. Yeah. comment

00:48:08.190 --> 00:48:10.730
section of her husband's post. Yeah, that's a

00:48:10.730 --> 00:48:12.909
very supportive wife to be okay with him talking.

00:48:13.050 --> 00:48:15.769
I mean, that's his first wife. She also says

00:48:15.769 --> 00:48:18.030
in the post she wishes she would have known Meredith

00:48:18.030 --> 00:48:20.110
and... Well, then you wouldn't have been dating.

00:48:20.309 --> 00:48:22.829
By the way, I cannot believe it's been 10 years.

00:48:23.010 --> 00:48:24.969
...ads that Meredith made the greatest on the

00:48:24.969 --> 00:48:27.590
planet, referring to Patton's 17 -year -old daughter,

00:48:27.690 --> 00:48:29.889
Alice, whom... That's cool that she at least

00:48:29.889 --> 00:48:32.230
has a stepmom. I know it's not her mom, but...

00:48:32.230 --> 00:48:34.250
He welcomed during his marriage to Michelle.

00:48:34.590 --> 00:48:37.110
Meredith concludes, I'm so sorry for the heartbreak

00:48:37.110 --> 00:48:39.469
you and Alice will always hold. I love you both

00:48:39.469 --> 00:48:42.750
with all my heart. Hugs forever. Despite her

00:48:42.750 --> 00:48:44.929
clear support for Patton's late love, a social

00:48:44.929 --> 00:48:47.389
media user suggested that it must be difficult

00:48:47.389 --> 00:48:49.889
for the 56 -year -old to see her husband honor

00:48:49.889 --> 00:48:52.210
Michelle's memory. Writing on Instagram threads,

00:48:52.449 --> 00:48:54.809
always a tough message for a current spouse partner

00:48:54.809 --> 00:48:57.550
to read. Alright, whatever. Get out of here!

00:49:01.650 --> 00:49:05.010
What's going on here? I got to make sure. Okay,

00:49:05.710 --> 00:49:08.849
so Spotify's been around 20 years, and let's

00:49:08.849 --> 00:49:11.949
see how much of this I can play without the copyright.

00:49:12.250 --> 00:49:14.369
And by the way, Savannah Guthrie's there, and

00:49:14.369 --> 00:49:16.010
poor thing looks like she cried all morning.

00:49:16.230 --> 00:49:18.409
Believe it or not, today marks Spotify's 20th

00:49:18.409 --> 00:49:20.610
anniversary, and to celebrate that, they are

00:49:20.610 --> 00:49:22.789
giving us an exclusive sneak peek as to their

00:49:22.789 --> 00:49:26.730
top... 20 greatest lists of all time. So for

00:49:26.730 --> 00:49:29.110
time, we're going to count down Spotify's five

00:49:29.110 --> 00:49:31.869
most streamed songs ever. Okay, so we'll start

00:49:31.869 --> 00:49:35.030
at five and it's this Harry Styles hit. All right,

00:49:35.030 --> 00:49:38.230
well, I can't play. Sorry. You want to pay for

00:49:38.230 --> 00:49:40.710
my copyright so I can be like the Joe Budden

00:49:40.710 --> 00:49:44.849
podcast where they play music? Because I cannot.

00:49:46.409 --> 00:49:51.739

00:51:06.539 --> 00:51:09.360
A Houston police officer is under investigation

00:51:09.360 --> 00:51:13.619
after she posted a racist rant on social media.

00:51:13.659 --> 00:51:16.039
The police department confirms Officer Ash...

00:51:16.039 --> 00:51:20.239
Cops being racist? No way! Play Gonzalez has

00:51:20.239 --> 00:51:23.059
been relieved of duty. A warning here, the video,

00:51:23.159 --> 00:51:25.800
it is disturbing and we are only sharing just

00:51:25.800 --> 00:51:28.659
a portion of it. Live downtown with the backlash

00:51:28.659 --> 00:51:31.099
from the community as well as the police. What

00:51:31.099 --> 00:51:37.480
did she do a harder? Yeah, well, the community

00:51:37.480 --> 00:51:40.079
is obviously very upset. But my sources with

00:51:40.079 --> 00:51:43.079
Houston police tell me that her fellow officers

00:51:43.079 --> 00:51:45.760
are deeply disturbed. Now, right now, Gonzalez

00:51:45.760 --> 00:51:48.920
is suspended of her duty. She has to stay at

00:51:48.920 --> 00:51:53.039
home with no badge, no gun as police here fully

00:51:53.039 --> 00:51:56.519
investigate. The amount of times that I will

00:51:56.519 --> 00:52:00.250
always and forever say that I hate. This is video

00:52:00.250 --> 00:52:02.849
of what police... What a dumb broad. ...say appears

00:52:02.849 --> 00:52:06.190
to be their officer, Ashley Gonzalez, going on

00:52:06.190 --> 00:52:09.449
a racist rant. The Instagram... Oh, she is happy.

00:52:09.570 --> 00:52:11.570
You know she would spill all the secrets about

00:52:11.570 --> 00:52:13.449
your breakup. ...post was clipped and shared

00:52:13.449 --> 00:52:16.789
by community activist Dr. Candace Matthews Monday

00:52:16.789 --> 00:52:19.829
night. The officer is heard saying a racial slur

00:52:19.829 --> 00:52:23.389
at least 25 times. Since the post has gone viral,

00:52:23.510 --> 00:52:28.150
Gonzalez has been relieved of duty. Right. Hag!

00:52:28.989 --> 00:52:57.179

00:54:22.849 --> 00:54:26.329
on over here? It's going to be such an exciting

00:54:26.329 --> 00:54:31.130
headline. I'm super excited. It's a full dream

00:54:31.130 --> 00:54:32.969
come true. That was weird how I said excited.

00:54:33.800 --> 00:54:35.860
I mean, it's amazing. I actually can't believe

00:54:35.860 --> 00:54:38.559
it. I can't. Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi

00:54:38.559 --> 00:54:42.559
are seriously smitten. Yeah, it's exciting. Yeah,

00:54:42.619 --> 00:54:45.159
amid romance rumors, a source confirms to ET

00:54:45.159 --> 00:54:47.679
Kendall's got a crush. Isn't that spectacular?

00:54:48.000 --> 00:54:50.760
It's kind of totally surreal. You don't really

00:54:50.760 --> 00:54:53.079
plan for this. We're told things between the

00:54:53.079 --> 00:54:55.260
supermodel and the Oscar nominee have taken a

00:54:55.260 --> 00:54:59.179
turn for the romantic. Oh, yeah. He's plowing

00:54:59.179 --> 00:55:03.610
her. After running in similar circles for years.

00:55:03.989 --> 00:55:07.329
All right, so there, Danny. Now, it's time for

00:55:07.329 --> 00:55:09.949
that exciting segment. It's now, and it's Britney

00:55:09.949 --> 00:55:32.420
Spears news. Local boy talk like a glowing narrator.

00:55:32.719 --> 00:55:35.539
Cat lame, Luna on the grill, she a queen. Her

00:55:35.539 --> 00:55:38.340
on the board, her on the screen. Freeze is free,

00:55:38.440 --> 00:55:41.059
y 'all fell for the plan. Hope ain't spun by

00:55:41.059 --> 00:55:44.139
the suits, not the fans. Britney News is bat

00:55:44.139 --> 00:55:46.980
crap crazy, crazy. Y 'all got played and the

00:55:46.980 --> 00:55:49.440
story got hazy. They sold you a script, y 'all

00:55:49.440 --> 00:55:51.760
called it a cause. But the cash came first, she

00:55:51.760 --> 00:55:54.239
just gave them a lot. Britney News is bat crap

00:55:54.239 --> 00:55:56.420
crazy, crazy. They wrote the whole time, y 'all

00:55:56.420 --> 00:55:58.860
call it amazing. Turn that dial, hoppy touch

00:55:58.860 --> 00:56:04.139
through the scam. Yeah, throwback joints in the

00:56:04.139 --> 00:56:07.280
cut, we vibin'. Then we dive deep in the lousy

00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:10.480
right. Teen idols push like perfect angles. Every

00:56:10.480 --> 00:56:13.440
tabloid angle, all triangles. Spin, spin, spin

00:56:13.440 --> 00:56:16.039
till the truths look fake. Whole fan base fake

00:56:16.039 --> 00:56:18.480
like a birthday cake. You were hashtags, merch,

00:56:18.579 --> 00:56:21.039
and a wristband. They were private jets, you

00:56:21.039 --> 00:56:24.139
were quicksand. Britney News is back, crap crazy,

00:56:24.199 --> 00:56:27.219
crazy. Y 'all got played and the story got hazy.

00:56:27.280 --> 00:56:29.300
They sold you a script, y 'all caught it, it

00:56:29.300 --> 00:56:31.280
cost. But the cash came first, you just came

00:56:31.280 --> 00:57:28.280
first. 8 -5 -6. Yeah. 49 Hoppy. That's 856 -494

00:57:28.280 --> 00:57:33.000
-6773. You can tweet at me at RyanHoppyRadio.

00:57:33.019 --> 00:57:36.860
You can always email me, RyanHoppyRadio at a

00:57:36.860 --> 00:57:41.380
gmail, a dot, a com. All right. Let's get into

00:57:41.380 --> 00:57:46.840
some Britney news. Happy Hot Topic. Sam Asghari

00:57:46.840 --> 00:57:49.940
reacts to Britney Spears entering rehab after

00:57:49.940 --> 00:57:52.440
the singer voluntarily checked herself into a

00:57:52.440 --> 00:57:55.219
treatment facility earlier this month. Her ex

00:57:55.219 --> 00:57:58.880
-husband shares his support. On April 22nd, the

00:57:58.880 --> 00:58:02.139
Traders alum tells TMZ he's happy to see Britney

00:58:02.139 --> 00:58:05.219
focusing on her healing, explaining, I think

00:58:05.219 --> 00:58:07.780
it's great, and as long as the person is in charge

00:58:07.780 --> 00:58:10.500
of that, it's all good. And he's not the only

00:58:10.500 --> 00:58:13.519
one showing support. Britney's ex, Kevin Federline,

00:58:13.599 --> 00:58:16.619
with whom she shares sons, Sean Preston and Jaden

00:58:16.619 --> 00:58:19.920
James also weighed in in an April 13th statement

00:58:19.920 --> 00:58:22.480
to TMZ through his attorney. They're like, thanks,

00:58:22.599 --> 00:58:25.760
mommy, for the money. Mark Vincent Kaplan, he

00:58:25.760 --> 00:58:28.500
wrote, Kevin is aware of the reports that she

00:58:28.500 --> 00:58:31.079
has checked into rehab. He is happy that she

00:58:31.079 --> 00:58:33.239
is getting help and that the decision appears

00:58:33.239 --> 00:58:36.420
to be one that she made and not one imposed upon

00:58:36.420 --> 00:58:39.539
her by others. All right, there you go. K -Fab,

00:58:39.559 --> 00:58:41.480
we don't really give a crap what you think. All

00:58:41.480 --> 00:58:44.260
right, it's time for our new signature segment.

00:58:45.340 --> 00:58:52.639
Notice side chick news. Yeah. Turn it up. Turn

00:58:52.639 --> 00:58:57.360
it up. Hoppy, y 'all. We're trying to hoppy,

00:58:57.360 --> 00:59:03.619
baby. Side chick news. We talking messy today.

00:59:03.800 --> 01:00:02.019
Uh -huh. We'll be right back. Who you trying

01:00:02.019 --> 01:00:04.400
to text? Got a ring on your hand. Still shopping

01:00:04.400 --> 01:00:06.860
for the next P. All teams stressing. Trying to

01:00:06.860 --> 01:00:09.079
spin it for the press. But the group chat memes

01:00:09.079 --> 01:00:11.800
got receipts on deck. From the field goals missing

01:00:11.800 --> 01:01:16.980
to the model in the mist. One post. Side chick.

01:01:17.380 --> 01:01:22.139
Offset always has some. And he says he has to

01:01:22.139 --> 01:01:28.039
keep pushing forward after being shot. So, here

01:01:28.039 --> 01:01:39.900
is Offset talking about being shot. Here we are.

01:01:40.559 --> 01:01:46.420
Happy Hot Topic. Right here. What's up, Seth?

01:01:46.619 --> 01:01:50.480
What's up with it, Andy? I don't know, man. You

01:01:50.480 --> 01:01:53.280
only got shot six days ago. And that was in Florida.

01:01:53.380 --> 01:01:56.159
And now you're here in L .A. How the hell did

01:01:56.159 --> 01:01:58.300
you even get here? Like... You know, we gotta

01:01:58.300 --> 01:02:01.079
keep pushing. Like, energize the body, man. How

01:02:01.079 --> 01:02:06.059
the... You got time to be slowing down? I mean,

01:02:06.119 --> 01:02:09.440
you got shot. And then you spent a day in the

01:02:09.440 --> 01:02:11.940
hospital. Then you were like, I'm gonna do this

01:02:11.940 --> 01:02:15.030
concert. So you come out... Why do they always

01:02:15.030 --> 01:02:17.389
got to freaking beep out the swear words? Fuck

01:02:17.389 --> 01:02:20.309
any fucking fuck, fuck, fuck. And you do the

01:02:20.309 --> 01:02:23.090
concert. This was legitimately six days ago.

01:02:23.130 --> 01:02:26.170
How did you get to L .A. with a hole in your

01:02:26.170 --> 01:02:34.250
second butthole? G6. G5, sorry. Like a G6. Had

01:02:34.250 --> 01:02:36.849
them bring the bed out. Lay on that thing for

01:02:36.849 --> 01:02:39.909
six hours, go to sleep. You could. Talk about,

01:02:40.050 --> 01:02:44.840
I mean, listen, adversity. I feel like. You know,

01:02:44.860 --> 01:02:47.179
a really smart person once told me, he said,

01:02:47.300 --> 01:02:50.420
have you ever noticed that you're not anxious

01:02:50.420 --> 01:02:53.639
at the airport? Meaning, I mean, you fly private

01:02:53.639 --> 01:02:55.539
a lot, but when you go to the airport or when

01:02:55.539 --> 01:02:57.400
you were on tour with Migos and things like that,

01:02:57.519 --> 01:03:01.059
it's like, okay, you get to the airport, you

01:03:01.059 --> 01:03:03.360
check in, you get through security, you get on

01:03:03.360 --> 01:03:06.440
the plane. Whatever, there you go. Also, Jake

01:03:06.440 --> 01:03:10.320
Reiner writes. That he cannot process that his

01:03:10.320 --> 01:03:13.760
brother killed their mom. Or their mom and dad.

01:03:13.820 --> 01:03:16.599
I can imagine. Let's see here. Here's some side

01:03:16.599 --> 01:03:20.760
chick news. Let's see what we got here. All right.

01:03:21.280 --> 01:03:23.400
Trying to figure out how I want to do this. There's

01:03:23.400 --> 01:03:27.280
so many side chicks today. It's crazy. Out of

01:03:27.280 --> 01:03:33.599
this world. It's nuts. Here's Mike Vrabel. Saying

01:03:33.599 --> 01:03:36.369
he failed his own standards. Dude. It's not like

01:03:36.369 --> 01:03:37.929
you just started banging or you've been hanging

01:03:37.929 --> 01:03:46.670
out six years. Shut your ass. What a horrible

01:03:46.670 --> 01:03:53.570
microphone. From a horrible person. You're just

01:03:53.570 --> 01:04:06.389
mad you got caught. No, you don't. and the actions

01:04:06.389 --> 01:04:09.190
that caused a distraction to the people that

01:04:09.190 --> 01:04:11.090
I care most about. You don't care about them.

01:04:11.130 --> 01:04:12.670
If you did, you would have told her before, you

01:04:12.670 --> 01:04:17.309
moron. No. Shut your ass. Family, this football

01:04:17.309 --> 01:04:20.849
team, the organization, and our fans. All right,

01:04:20.869 --> 01:04:25.289
there you go. I'm dead. Can you imagine being...

01:04:25.289 --> 01:04:28.070
I keep thinking it's Diana Taurasi. I don't know

01:04:28.070 --> 01:04:34.250
why. A Boston radio host was fired for talking

01:04:34.250 --> 01:04:38.610
about Mike Vrabel. I don't like that. Yeah. The

01:04:38.610 --> 01:04:43.670
Patriot fans are whipped. Mike Vrabel is looking

01:04:43.670 --> 01:04:47.829
to get into counseling and get help. And then

01:04:47.829 --> 01:04:51.650
he calls the draft. The Patriots had the draft

01:04:51.650 --> 01:04:53.289
pick last night, and he called him and said,

01:04:53.309 --> 01:04:56.789
welcome to the team. And Dave Portnoy criticizes

01:04:56.789 --> 01:04:59.590
Mike Vrabel. Good. Finally, somebody from that

01:04:59.590 --> 01:05:03.119
universe. My Patriots fandom, dude. All right.

01:05:03.139 --> 01:05:10.960
Then we got this headline right here. Just hours

01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:13.860
before the NFL draft kicked off, new bombshell

01:05:13.860 --> 01:05:16.420
photos emerging. One showing Patriots head coach

01:05:16.420 --> 01:05:18.940
Mike Vrabel and former athletic NFL reporter

01:05:18.940 --> 01:05:22.960
Diana Rossini. Oh, yeah. allegedly kissing at

01:05:22.960 --> 01:05:25.579
a New York bar in 2020. Oh yeah, so this was

01:05:25.579 --> 01:05:28.179
just, you know, him with his standards. Shut

01:05:28.179 --> 01:05:30.400
up, you've been doing it forever. According to

01:05:30.400 --> 01:05:33.320
the New York Post, another published by TMZ Sports

01:05:33.320 --> 01:05:35.659
is said to show the pair at a Mississippi casino

01:05:35.659 --> 01:05:39.719
in early 2024. My priorities are my family and

01:05:39.719 --> 01:05:41.480
this football team. Oh yeah, I don't think your

01:05:41.480 --> 01:05:44.019
wife wants anything to do with you unless she

01:05:44.019 --> 01:05:46.300
has no credibility and stays with you. And in

01:05:46.300 --> 01:05:48.980
that order. Vrabel announcing on Thursday he's

01:05:48.980 --> 01:05:51.440
focusing on his family and seeking counseling,

01:05:51.539 --> 01:05:56.980
according to ESPN. This is all PR. I understand

01:05:56.980 --> 01:06:00.840
that there are questions, but I take accountability

01:06:00.840 --> 01:06:04.360
for my actions. If you took accountability, you

01:06:04.360 --> 01:06:07.900
would have told us sooner. You know, you'd be

01:06:07.900 --> 01:06:09.840
freaking out when those pictures got released

01:06:09.840 --> 01:06:13.860
of them on the rooftop. And I lost a lot of respect

01:06:13.860 --> 01:06:15.699
for him. I thought he was cool. Actions that

01:06:15.699 --> 01:06:18.579
caused a distraction to the people that I care

01:06:18.579 --> 01:06:20.739
most about. You don't care about them. They're

01:06:20.739 --> 01:06:26.940
just maniacs. Just weeks earlier, Vrabel saying

01:06:26.940 --> 01:06:29.239
photos published by the Post showed an innocent

01:06:29.239 --> 01:06:31.980
interaction and any suggestion otherwise was,

01:06:32.039 --> 01:06:35.130
quote, laughable. Oh yeah, I remember that. Now

01:06:35.130 --> 01:06:37.909
the embattled head coach pulling a complete 180.

01:06:38.170 --> 01:06:40.050
Remember when they said they were on a girls

01:06:40.050 --> 01:06:41.989
trip and he was just visiting and then they asked

01:06:41.989 --> 01:06:46.530
for any proof of group text messages? My previous

01:06:46.530 --> 01:06:51.070
actions don't meet the standard that I hold myself

01:06:51.070 --> 01:06:53.070
to. You don't hold yourself to anything. You're

01:06:53.070 --> 01:06:56.349
just like everyone else in the NFL. You're a

01:06:56.349 --> 01:07:02.000
dog! They don't. Yeah, they do. Shut up. We're

01:07:02.000 --> 01:07:05.840
not stupid, dude. Your wife might be for staying

01:07:05.840 --> 01:07:11.260
with you. Monica Lewinsky. Another original side

01:07:11.260 --> 01:07:17.739
chick. Mm -hmm. She had something very interesting

01:07:17.739 --> 01:07:21.440
happen. She jokes that you have to laugh at yourself.

01:07:22.880 --> 01:07:25.519
Yeah, she's like a cool side chick. I don't like

01:07:25.519 --> 01:07:27.260
when the liberal party tries to make her into

01:07:27.260 --> 01:07:28.880
like a pundit. It's like, yeah, she just slept

01:07:28.880 --> 01:07:34.019
around. Which is still cool. You know? You can't

01:07:34.019 --> 01:07:39.179
just hate on her. No, you can't. So right here,

01:07:39.260 --> 01:07:43.480
we have the clip of Monica Lewinsky laughing

01:07:43.480 --> 01:07:55.119
at herself. Not put Bill Clinton in my mouth.

01:08:01.440 --> 01:08:06.079
Oh. We're talking about finance. Exactly. What

01:08:06.079 --> 01:08:11.019
a hot piece of ass she is. I'm really... We could

01:08:11.019 --> 01:08:13.500
go a lot of different directions. Yeah, exactly.

01:08:14.019 --> 01:08:21.420
All right. Monica? I think just in the financial

01:08:21.420 --> 01:08:28.270
realm. Oh, my God. You cannot... All these feminists

01:08:28.270 --> 01:08:35.369
clapping for a side chick. Monica, I'm wondering

01:08:35.369 --> 01:08:37.609
if you ever felt that you were wrong in your

01:08:37.609 --> 01:08:40.710
career just for being a woman. I'm not playing

01:08:40.710 --> 01:08:43.750
that. No, she's wrong because she banged the

01:08:43.750 --> 01:08:46.149
president that was married, even though that's

01:08:46.149 --> 01:08:49.270
a loveless relationship. Speaking of a moron

01:08:49.270 --> 01:08:56.630
right here. Did you love him back then? I did,

01:08:56.710 --> 01:08:59.350
but obviously. Here's the side chick that was

01:08:59.350 --> 01:09:02.109
banging Sharon Moore, the coach of Michigan.

01:09:02.170 --> 01:09:04.989
Taking no accountability. Just like every other

01:09:04.989 --> 01:09:07.130
side chick trying to get famous from it because

01:09:07.130 --> 01:09:10.310
you're a victim. Shut up. Women want equal rights.

01:09:10.550 --> 01:09:12.829
They want to be taken seriously, but then when

01:09:12.829 --> 01:09:14.390
they get caught sleeping around, that's when

01:09:14.390 --> 01:09:15.750
they're like, I don't want to be taken seriously

01:09:15.750 --> 01:09:19.630
with that. And really reflecting on what happened,

01:09:19.810 --> 01:09:24.579
what was happening. That's, yeah, that's. Not

01:09:24.579 --> 01:09:27.159
love at all. What a hot piece of ass sociopathic

01:09:27.159 --> 01:09:31.159
liar. Paige Shiver, now 32, says she was - She's

01:09:31.159 --> 01:09:34.100
32? I mean, she looks good. I thought she was

01:09:34.100 --> 01:09:36.699
younger. So yeah, at least if you're in your

01:09:36.699 --> 01:09:38.560
early 20s and you were in high school during

01:09:38.560 --> 01:09:40.539
COVID, you're all mentally messed up. But you're

01:09:40.539 --> 01:09:44.340
a grown ass woman. Shut up. You're eight years

01:09:44.340 --> 01:09:47.500
away from 40. If you live to 64, you're middle

01:09:47.500 --> 01:09:50.689
-aged, honey. It's an intern in 2022 when she

01:09:50.689 --> 01:09:53.109
and Sharon Moore, then an offensive coordinator

01:09:53.109 --> 01:09:56.329
and a married father, started a consensual, intimate

01:09:56.329 --> 01:09:58.869
relationship. She was asked to be Moore's executive

01:09:58.869 --> 01:10:02.710
assistant when he was. Oh, yeah. To head coach

01:10:02.710 --> 01:10:06.310
in 2024. Did you feel pressured to have the relationship

01:10:06.310 --> 01:10:10.970
in order to have job security? Yes. OK, well,

01:10:11.090 --> 01:10:15.079
maybe don't work at that job then. Shut up. You

01:10:15.079 --> 01:10:18.859
loved all the perks. You loved being a snob,

01:10:18.859 --> 01:10:24.439
honey. Yes, I did. Shut up. I mean, he and other

01:10:24.439 --> 01:10:27.800
coaches had control over my career. Well, maybe

01:10:27.800 --> 01:10:29.300
you go work somewhere else where you don't have

01:10:29.300 --> 01:10:31.899
to, you know, bang around. Especially him. I

01:10:31.899 --> 01:10:34.600
mean, he could fire me in a second. Shiver. I

01:10:34.600 --> 01:10:37.090
would too. You seem annoying. Says her attempts

01:10:37.090 --> 01:10:39.289
to end the on -again, off -again relationship

01:10:39.289 --> 01:10:41.729
were often met with what she calls manipulation

01:10:41.729 --> 01:10:45.550
tactics. Well, yeah, go to HR then. Yeah, you're

01:10:45.550 --> 01:10:47.329
going to be in trouble. At least you get ahead

01:10:47.329 --> 01:10:51.529
of it. After giving head. You know what I mean?

01:10:51.670 --> 01:10:54.850
Including threats of self -harm. Every time I

01:10:54.850 --> 01:10:58.829
tried to pull away, he always had a story, always

01:10:58.829 --> 01:11:01.210
had a way to pull me in. So then you're just,

01:11:01.310 --> 01:11:03.550
you know, I'm not saying you're a dumb blonde.

01:11:04.329 --> 01:11:06.510
But you're not making blondes look good. And

01:11:06.510 --> 01:11:11.750
making me feel that I couldn't leave him because

01:11:11.750 --> 01:11:15.590
he was so miserable without me. He was miserable

01:11:15.590 --> 01:11:18.029
with you too, honey. During their years -long

01:11:18.029 --> 01:11:20.350
relationship, Shriver learned she was pregnant

01:11:20.350 --> 01:11:27.090
by Moore. Oh, yeah. Homey doesn't pull out. Pregnancy

01:11:27.090 --> 01:11:30.310
was complicated by pompa disease, a genetic disorder

01:11:30.310 --> 01:11:31.970
that... Can you imagine that, kid? You're born

01:11:31.970 --> 01:11:34.109
to a side chick and a stupid football coach.

01:11:34.510 --> 01:11:37.510
...muscle strength. Her doctors delivered the

01:11:37.510 --> 01:11:40.489
heartbreaking news. You know, he was running

01:11:40.489 --> 01:11:42.810
down the street all happy. Well, doctors and

01:11:42.810 --> 01:11:52.189
experts told me that it wouldn't be right or

01:11:52.189 --> 01:11:57.689
healthy. For me to keep the baby. If you want

01:11:57.689 --> 01:12:03.430
to. That would have been a great relationship

01:12:03.430 --> 01:12:09.850
and family dynamic there. Are you now wearing

01:12:09.850 --> 01:12:12.050
a condom, having a vasectomy, or pulling out,

01:12:12.109 --> 01:12:16.329
bro? I'm not listening to any more of your tears.

01:12:16.430 --> 01:12:19.850
It's fake! Like it's real tears, but you take

01:12:19.850 --> 01:12:25.659
no accountability. Happy Hot Topic! Overnight,

01:12:25.720 --> 01:12:28.939
fierce twisters touching down. Over a dozen reported

01:12:28.939 --> 01:12:31.560
in multiple states, including here in Oklahoma.

01:12:31.939 --> 01:12:35.079
A tornado ripping through the town of Enid. Look

01:12:35.079 --> 01:12:38.840
at this. Look at this. Video showing the winds

01:12:38.840 --> 01:12:42.199
and an ominous cloud over the community, engulfing

01:12:42.199 --> 01:12:45.220
the sky. And dramatic scenes at Vance Air Force

01:12:45.220 --> 01:12:47.699
Base, where local officials say... Ah, so there's

01:12:47.699 --> 01:12:51.680
tornadoes. Here's Diana... Why do I keep wanting

01:12:51.680 --> 01:12:55.229
to say Taurasi? Famed a WNBA player. No, Diana

01:12:55.229 --> 01:12:58.789
Rossini talking about the Jimmy Garoppolo trade.

01:12:59.010 --> 01:13:02.050
And I know why Mike believes that this could

01:13:02.050 --> 01:13:04.430
be a safe insurance policy, but it's essentially

01:13:04.430 --> 01:13:07.609
like my husband having his new wife coming into

01:13:07.609 --> 01:13:09.890
our house right now, introducing him to my little

01:13:09.890 --> 01:13:12.010
Mikey. You got to see it. You got to look at

01:13:12.010 --> 01:13:16.189
this video. RG3's face is hilarious. The new

01:13:16.189 --> 01:13:19.449
mom. I leave and then he's like, oh, Di, come

01:13:19.449 --> 01:13:21.810
back. You're cooking so good. We actually want

01:13:21.810 --> 01:13:25.140
to keep you here. What a hag. You're so great

01:13:25.140 --> 01:13:27.560
at that whole thing. You know, you can't. I'd

01:13:27.560 --> 01:13:34.520
be like, no, it's over. Yeah, nine. Every single

01:13:34.520 --> 01:13:39.800
Kalen Clark game is going to be on TV. And Devin

01:13:39.800 --> 01:13:43.340
Booker ripped into the refs. So that's good.

01:13:44.180 --> 01:13:47.359
All right. What have we got here? Eight, five,

01:13:47.380 --> 01:13:53.890
six, 49, Hoppy. Before we get to radio news,

01:13:54.069 --> 01:13:56.510
I should probably play the radio news intro.

01:13:56.829 --> 01:14:04.890
Mm -hmm. Right here. You ready? Where did it

01:14:04.890 --> 01:14:06.670
go? Sorry, I'm on my laptop. All right, here

01:14:06.670 --> 01:14:10.710
we go. Hey, y 'all. Hey, y 'all. Motherfuckers.

01:14:11.930 --> 01:14:16.890
I make killings. Motherfuckers. I hate. Hey,

01:14:16.909 --> 01:14:20.390
y 'all. Yo, yo. Static crackles. Hoppy on the

01:14:20.390 --> 01:14:23.180
ass. Feelin' radio secrets, man, he don't care

01:14:23.180 --> 01:14:26.460
Airin' out the closet, skeletons in pairs DJ

01:14:26.460 --> 01:14:29.380
Drama, he's the one who dance Program directors

01:14:29.380 --> 01:14:32.779
schemin' in the back rooms Payola playlists rigged

01:14:32.779 --> 01:14:35.180
like monsoons Fake callers on the line, they

01:14:35.180 --> 01:14:37.859
rehearse too soon Truth hits harder than a bass

01:14:47.369 --> 01:14:50.069
So I have known Christopher Frederick, a .k .a.

01:14:50.069 --> 01:14:53.550
formerly Brother Fred, Fred from The Fred Show

01:14:53.550 --> 01:14:57.109
on Kiss FM in Chicago. I remember his first day

01:14:57.109 --> 01:15:01.069
on air. He is going to be heard in Washington,

01:15:01.229 --> 01:15:05.770
D .C. on Hot 99 .5. Pulling cards, no regard.

01:15:06.600 --> 01:15:10.039
And the Fred show is also going to be on Z1043

01:15:10.039 --> 01:15:16.460
in Baltimore. So he's on in Virginia Beach. He's

01:15:16.460 --> 01:15:20.319
on in Cincinnati. West Palm Beach. He's got it.

01:15:20.399 --> 01:15:28.659
Love you, Fred. So proud of you, Doug. His quote.

01:15:31.640 --> 01:15:33.380
I still can't believe the call we're incredibly

01:15:33.380 --> 01:15:35.640
grateful for the opportunity of mornings in Baltimore

01:15:35.640 --> 01:15:39.579
and DC these are legacy stations and we're honored

01:15:39.579 --> 01:15:41.439

01:15:41.439 --> 01:15:44.380
a humble man that's why we love you Fred cause

you're a good a guy alrighty let's do this alright

01:15:51.199 --> 01:16:07.359
now Tampa Bay news We about to go live. Tampa

01:16:07.359 --> 01:16:09.840
Bay News is the place we arrive. From the beach

01:16:09.840 --> 01:16:12.220
to the bay and the city's crazy moves. We got

01:16:12.220 --> 01:16:14.720
stories hotter than the Florida grooves. Tampa

01:16:14.720 --> 01:16:34.750
Bay News, we making it spin. Ryan Hop on the

01:16:34.750 --> 01:16:37.649
mic, spitting fire again. National waves and

01:16:37.649 --> 01:16:40.090
the city's his friend. Talking headlines, man,

01:16:40.170 --> 01:16:42.270
you can't resist. Every scoop hitting harder

01:16:42.270 --> 01:16:45.289
than a clenched fist. Tampa Bay News, we making

01:16:45.289 --> 01:17:10.039

01:17:31.260 --> 01:17:35.109
the way all my friends complain McDonald's is

01:17:35.109 --> 01:17:38.250
so expensive. Take the money and use the McDonald's

01:17:38.250 --> 01:17:39.909
and go to your grocery store. You'll have more

01:17:39.909 --> 01:17:44.989
frickin' leftovers. Mm -hmm. Whoa! Happy Hot

01:17:44.989 --> 01:17:48.850
Topic! Before we get to this headline about medical

01:17:48.850 --> 01:17:52.670
marijuana, I gotta, you know, hit this right

01:17:52.670 --> 01:17:58.289
now. Ready? Right. It's my, uh, THC. Allegedly.

01:18:03.770 --> 01:18:14.289
Oh yeah. Actually, let me see if I still have

01:18:14.289 --> 01:18:36.560
the weed news intro. My spirits enjoy the ride.

01:18:37.020 --> 01:18:41.039
Rolling paper stacked up high. Green stories

01:18:41.039 --> 01:18:45.859
buzzing in the sky. Headlines of haze and seas.

01:18:46.920 --> 01:18:51.399
Hold on tight for your leafy knees. Weave news

01:18:51.399 --> 01:18:56.560
on the air tonight. Hoppy brings it all in sight.

01:18:56.800 --> 01:19:01.239
From the ganja farms to your street. Ryan's got

01:19:01.239 --> 01:19:22.239
the news so sweet. He's got some buds in me.

01:19:23.579 --> 01:19:27.920
Marijuana headlines galore. From the stash to

01:19:27.920 --> 01:19:32.260
every store. Cannabis rush hour hits the scene.

01:19:32.699 --> 01:19:38.199
With Ryan Hoppy, it's evergreen. Weed news on

01:19:38.199 --> 01:19:42.819
the air tonight. Hoppy brings it all inside.

01:19:43.140 --> 01:19:47.479
From the guns of farms to your street. Ryan's

01:19:47.479 --> 01:19:51.689
got the news so sweet. Let's get into it right

01:19:51.689 --> 01:19:57.010
now. Whoa! Happy Hot Topic! Medical marijuana

01:19:57.010 --> 01:20:02.270
news. Mm -hmm. Right now. First up tonight, the

01:20:02.270 --> 01:20:04.369
Trump administration making a big change here.

01:20:04.609 --> 01:20:07.010
They're loosening up the restrictions over medical

01:20:07.010 --> 01:20:09.329
marijuana. It's a move to make it a Schedule

01:20:09.329 --> 01:20:12.390
3 drug as opposed to a Schedule 1 that won't

01:20:12.390 --> 01:20:15.189
affect criminal law, but, and here's the big

01:20:15.189 --> 01:20:18.050
but, it could potentially... Oh, yeah! ...research

01:20:18.050 --> 01:20:19.909
in hopes of finally getting some answers to some

01:20:19.909 --> 01:20:22.890
key questions. Water. There you go. We are...

01:20:22.890 --> 01:20:26.789
You got that? Then you got this. The Mayfields

01:20:26.789 --> 01:20:28.489
are now a family of four. Baker and his wife

01:20:28.489 --> 01:20:30.350
Emily and... I didn't know Baker had four kids.

01:20:30.390 --> 01:20:34.229
Man! He does not pull out. ...the birth of their

01:20:34.229 --> 01:20:37.329
son. With the foot. Maverick. So cute. There's

01:20:37.329 --> 01:20:39.750
a little baby Mav. On Wednesday, the baby was

01:20:39.750 --> 01:20:41.970
born. Wednesday morning, so... There you go.

01:20:42.920 --> 01:20:45.520
And oh yeah, here's a headline that the Tampa

01:20:45.520 --> 01:20:50.460
media will be mad I talked about. But like I've

01:20:50.460 --> 01:20:53.739
said, there was never a deal in Tampa. They were

01:20:53.739 --> 01:20:57.260
stranging out a line. That being the Tampa Bay

01:20:57.260 --> 01:21:01.340
Rays. And if you didn't believe me that there

01:21:01.340 --> 01:21:04.560
wasn't a deal in Tampa, well, this headline out

01:21:04.560 --> 01:21:12.739
here seems to prove it. Well, this morning, growing

01:21:12.739 --> 01:21:14.979
concern the Rays could look at other cities for

01:21:14.979 --> 01:21:17.680
the team to call. Yeah, I was talking to somebody

01:21:17.680 --> 01:21:20.460
in Chicago who knows somebody that works for

01:21:20.460 --> 01:21:22.920
the Rays. And this is all alleged. Remember that

01:21:22.920 --> 01:21:26.560
50 -50 Montreal thing? That was them, you know,

01:21:26.579 --> 01:21:30.020
doing this thing. Where they were just trying

01:21:30.020 --> 01:21:35.899
to go to, you know, Montreal. This comes as Hillsborough

01:21:35.899 --> 01:21:38.039
County leaders say they likely won't meet the

01:21:38.039 --> 01:21:40.920
June deadline for an agreement. I've lived in

01:21:40.920 --> 01:21:43.720
Tampa Bay 11 years and every year there's a new

01:21:43.720 --> 01:21:46.619
deadline. Deadline. Deadline. The Rays are very

01:21:46.619 --> 01:21:50.039
good at pushing things back. They're phony. On

01:21:50.039 --> 01:21:52.640
a new stadium. It undersides Beth Rousseau's

01:21:52.640 --> 01:21:54.800
life. I'm glad you're on my side, babe. With

01:21:54.800 --> 01:21:58.260
the continuing saga. What up, hottie? Good morning,

01:21:58.439 --> 01:22:02.529
Beth. Yeah, it just seems to go on and on and

01:22:02.529 --> 01:22:04.189
on. Hillsborough County Commissioners say at

01:22:04.189 --> 01:22:06.550
this point they have too many unanswered questions

01:22:06.550 --> 01:22:09.590
to reach an agreement by that June 1st deadline.

01:22:11.289 --> 01:22:13.569
Because they don't want to make the everyday

01:22:13.569 --> 01:22:15.989
average Joe and Jane pay for something that the

01:22:15.989 --> 01:22:19.119
race can afford. Meanwhile, the Rays say that

01:22:19.119 --> 01:22:20.779
they want to have a stadium here on Hillsborough

01:22:20.779 --> 01:22:24.000
College's Dale Mabry campus by April of 2029.

01:22:24.380 --> 01:22:27.600
Time's fine. Remember what 2026 seems so far

01:22:27.600 --> 01:22:30.020
away? So they need things to move forward in

01:22:30.020 --> 01:22:32.319
a timely manner. We talked to a development expert

01:22:32.319 --> 01:22:34.880
who says asking for any sort of delay when it

01:22:34.880 --> 01:22:38.600
comes to this deadline is a risky move. Extending.

01:22:38.600 --> 01:22:41.149
Because the Rays are just pushing it back. Because

01:22:41.149 --> 01:22:43.069
like I've heard, because they told me, literally

01:22:43.069 --> 01:22:45.109
they just want to pay for their kids' college

01:22:45.109 --> 01:22:47.590
funds and they want to pay for their houses.

01:22:47.609 --> 01:22:50.250
They don't care. This is another 60 to 90 days

01:22:50.250 --> 01:22:53.949
beyond June 1st. Invites other markets. And then

01:22:53.949 --> 01:22:56.109
they bring in Ken Batty and act like he's going

01:22:56.109 --> 01:22:58.329
to change something when he's just a nicer version

01:22:58.329 --> 01:23:03.369
of Sternberg. To really make a strong pitch to

01:23:03.369 --> 01:23:08.770
the Rays' ownership. So there are pages of questions

01:23:08.770 --> 01:23:10.670
that Hillsborough County commissioners have sent

01:23:10.670 --> 01:23:12.810
to the team that they need to answer everything.

01:23:13.029 --> 01:23:15.989
And the Rays aren't going to answer it. They're

01:23:15.989 --> 01:23:18.149
very good at changing the subject where you're

01:23:18.149 --> 01:23:19.850
confused what you're originally talking about.

01:23:20.069 --> 01:23:22.449
From how the budget for the stadium was developed

01:23:22.449 --> 01:23:25.229
to where the parking is going to go at this site.

01:23:25.630 --> 01:23:29.619
Yeah, you know, there's no room. They need to

01:23:29.619 --> 01:23:31.619
just hang on at the trap till the end of time

01:23:31.619 --> 01:23:34.300
or leave. They say after they have the answers

01:23:34.300 --> 01:23:36.479
to all those questions, commissioners need 60

01:23:36.479 --> 01:23:39.399
to 90 days to move forward with these. See, this

01:23:39.399 --> 01:23:42.340
is what I'm talking about. It's so aggravating.

01:23:42.420 --> 01:23:45.880
They're just, they're gaslighting you. Negotiations.

01:23:45.939 --> 01:23:47.779
In a statement, the race have said that they're

01:23:47.779 --> 01:23:49.939
working diligently to get. No, you're not. You're

01:23:49.939 --> 01:23:53.380
pushing it back like scumbags. All of those questions

01:23:53.380 --> 01:23:55.539
answered and that they hope to have a response

01:23:55.539 --> 01:23:59.039
to commissioners soon. Ah, that soon. You've

01:23:59.039 --> 01:24:27.130
been saying that since 2016. Shut up! Yeah. All

01:24:27.130 --> 01:24:29.489
in ten heights, now the cynic get tight From

01:24:29.489 --> 01:24:31.949
the berms to the block, that's a hell of a hike

01:24:31.949 --> 01:24:34.850
Turn the dial, see his name on the lights He

01:24:34.850 --> 01:24:37.550
got callers on the line, tryna break they news

01:24:37.550 --> 01:24:40.050
From the side to the sticks, they relate to the

01:24:40.050 --> 01:24:42.850
views Every segment like a story from the avenue

01:24:42.850 --> 01:24:45.489
Tell a slick, then he fact check the attitude

01:24:45.489 --> 01:24:50.789
This that Chicago news Hop it out and let em

01:24:50.789 --> 01:24:53.609
choose From the heights to the loop, what it

01:24:53.609 --> 01:25:19.119
do? All right. We are one step closer to the

01:25:19.119 --> 01:25:21.699
Bears staying in Illinois after the state house

01:25:21.699 --> 01:25:25.539
passed a mega project spill. Still, the Bears

01:25:25.539 --> 01:25:27.300
are not putting all their eggs in one basket.

01:25:27.359 --> 01:25:30.739
You can't. Illinois, suck her up. More needs

01:25:30.739 --> 01:25:33.560
to be done. Aracel Rezai is at Soldier Field

01:25:33.560 --> 01:25:36.649
with more. Major focus is to still build a new

01:25:36.649 --> 01:25:39.630
stadium, moving the Bears from downtown here

01:25:39.630 --> 01:25:45.189
to Arlington Heights. It also locks in the property

01:25:45.189 --> 01:25:48.949
tax. Whatever. It will be the first anniversary

01:25:48.949 --> 01:25:52.329
of the day that Chicago's Pope Leo was chosen

01:25:52.329 --> 01:25:56.670
to lead the world's Catholics. And tonight in

01:25:56.670 --> 01:25:59.630
an exclusive interview, his brother, John Prevost,

01:25:59.750 --> 01:26:02.069
speaks to Marianne. All right. I'm sorry. I know

01:26:02.069 --> 01:26:03.390
people probably want to hear it, but I don't

01:26:03.390 --> 01:26:27.640
give a crap. Outro Music Hot holes where dreams

01:26:27.640 --> 01:26:30.319
collapse. Downtown echoes the cabs and faded

01:26:30.319 --> 01:26:33.039
cabs past the preaching hustle. Corner kids trading

01:26:33.039 --> 01:26:35.420
maps where the vibe's Midwest, but the struggle

01:26:35.420 --> 01:26:38.739
overlaps. Cleveland news, where the truth gets

01:26:38.739 --> 01:26:41.760
raw. Rust belt blues, every crack, every flaw.

01:26:42.239 --> 01:26:45.420
Unfilled it takes, no sugar, no draw. Hoppy on

01:26:45.420 --> 01:26:48.319
the mic, spitting facts, no law. Back alleys

01:26:48.319 --> 01:26:50.840
whisper, still grit in the air. Hoppy pulling

01:26:50.840 --> 01:26:53.579
cards, city troops lay bare, bars sharper than

01:26:53.579 --> 01:26:55.979
the skyline. No time to spare, opinions heavy

01:26:55.979 --> 01:26:59.619
as the lake, but he don't care. Radio day, static

01:26:59.619 --> 01:27:02.100
hum in the booth, voice booming through the speakers,

01:27:02.239 --> 01:27:05.659
hitting with the truth. Tower city shadows, echoing

01:27:05.659 --> 01:27:08.439
the youth, uncut, unpolished, Cleveland's the

01:27:08.439 --> 01:27:11.399
proof. Hoppy's lens, no rose tint, just grind

01:27:11.399 --> 01:27:14.319
every segment, a slice of Cleveland's mind. From

01:27:14.319 --> 01:27:17.619
the flats to the heights, stories combined, unfiltered,

01:27:17.640 --> 01:27:36.329
unbothered, unrefined. All right. What's going

01:27:36.329 --> 01:27:51.930
on right here? With this scumbag. So this is

01:27:51.930 --> 01:27:54.590
a Cleveland cop arraigned after violating sex

01:27:54.590 --> 01:28:09.439
offender registration. Former cop. All right,

01:28:09.460 --> 01:28:18.640
there's this. Sounds like things are going well

01:28:18.640 --> 01:28:21.979
in Cleveland. Well, students at Parma's Valley

01:28:21.979 --> 01:28:24.819
Forge and Normandy High Schools... Get up, Parma!

01:28:25.300 --> 01:28:27.960
Come to the classroom today. Comes after a heated

01:28:27.960 --> 01:28:29.760
school board meeting in Parma last night. We

01:28:29.760 --> 01:28:31.600
heard a little bit of it right there. Earlier

01:28:31.600 --> 01:28:34.100
this week, a student died by suicide inside the

01:28:34.100 --> 01:28:37.020
cafeteria at Valley Forge. Rest in peace, bud.

01:28:37.300 --> 01:28:39.840
Cuyahoga County reporter Mike Holden joins us

01:28:39.840 --> 01:28:42.220
live from Valley Forge High School this morning.

01:28:42.260 --> 01:28:44.979
And Mike, students and parents, they want change.

01:28:46.260 --> 01:28:49.079
Oh yeah, they want change, answers, additional

01:28:49.079 --> 01:28:51.579
safety and security upgrades, including metal

01:28:51.579 --> 01:28:54.979
detectors. For safety, you should probably just,

01:28:55.060 --> 01:28:59.720
you know, move out of Cleveland. And that is

01:28:59.720 --> 01:29:03.220
that. Okay, on a serious note, my friend Pete

01:29:03.220 --> 01:29:07.779
Kostanis from vanished Chicagoland. He's got

01:29:07.779 --> 01:29:11.300
millions of fans in Chicago. He is facing cancer,

01:29:11.439 --> 01:29:15.020
and he's been fighting it for seven years, and

01:29:15.020 --> 01:29:19.279
it's taken a turn for the worst. And he's going

01:29:19.279 --> 01:29:21.220
to hospice, but I still believe that he will

01:29:21.220 --> 01:29:23.279
beat it because he's a badass. even though with

01:29:23.279 --> 01:29:28.100
cancer it has spread. So I'll post it as an individual

01:29:28.100 --> 01:29:29.939
episode, but since you've been listening this

01:29:29.939 --> 01:29:31.819
long, I wanted to play my interview with Pete

01:29:31.819 --> 01:29:35.380
from Vanished Chicagoland. So here you go. Love

01:29:35.380 --> 01:30:04.939
you, Pete. This is Pete Kostanis. What's up?

01:30:05.020 --> 01:30:07.399
This is Hoppy Hour. I am your host, Ryan Hoppy.

01:30:07.439 --> 01:30:10.920
And from the Vanished Chicagoland online brand

01:30:10.920 --> 01:30:14.520
and the Vanished Chicago Stories, the podcast,

01:30:14.859 --> 01:30:18.619
the one and only Pete Kostanis is on Hoppy Hour.

01:30:18.819 --> 01:30:21.939
What's up, my man? I'm doing great. How about

01:30:21.939 --> 01:30:25.930
you? I'm doing great, man. I find you absolutely

01:30:25.930 --> 01:30:28.729
fascinating, Pete. I grew up in Chicago from

01:30:28.729 --> 01:30:32.130
1993 to 2014. Then I moved to Cleveland briefly,

01:30:32.270 --> 01:30:34.710
and then I moved to Tampa, and I've been here

01:30:34.710 --> 01:30:37.850
10 years. And I miss the city, but I don't. But

01:30:37.850 --> 01:30:40.970
I always love following Chicago pages that kind

01:30:40.970 --> 01:30:44.109
of remind me why I got into radio and podcasting.

01:30:44.369 --> 01:30:46.909
And I looked something up about 97 .9 The Loop,

01:30:47.029 --> 01:30:49.489
and you shared some post about two, three years

01:30:49.489 --> 01:30:52.569
ago, and I followed your page. And I absolutely

01:30:52.840 --> 01:30:56.100
love, Pete, how you're keeping the vanished Chicago

01:30:56.100 --> 01:30:58.880
memories that we have, the vanished Chicagoland

01:30:58.880 --> 01:31:02.600
memories, you are keeping them alive. Oh, yes.

01:31:02.640 --> 01:31:05.380
I'm still doing this every day. People love it.

01:31:06.060 --> 01:31:09.460
I'm getting a lot of praise and getting a lot

01:31:09.460 --> 01:31:12.420
of followers, of course. It's just, it's my passion.

01:31:12.520 --> 01:31:16.140
I love doing it every day. So what was the process?

01:31:16.220 --> 01:31:18.840
Obviously, you can go to pages on Facebook and

01:31:18.840 --> 01:31:21.119
just create a Facebook page, but what was the

01:31:21.119 --> 01:31:24.680
process of just how did this brand explode so

01:31:24.680 --> 01:31:28.380
fast, or did it take time, or what was the whole

01:31:28.380 --> 01:31:31.239
process? Okay, well, I'll start at the beginning.

01:31:31.579 --> 01:31:34.020
One day I was searching through Facebook, and

01:31:34.020 --> 01:31:37.479
I noticed there was a business page, and it was

01:31:37.479 --> 01:31:39.880
called Dispensers Castle of Toys. I don't know

01:31:39.880 --> 01:31:41.979
if you remember that. It was a big toy store

01:31:41.979 --> 01:31:46.750
out in, Oprah Harris. And I look at it and I

01:31:46.750 --> 01:31:49.630
said, well, why is there a business page when

01:31:49.630 --> 01:31:52.289
it's out of business? You know, I think it was

01:31:52.289 --> 01:31:55.289
a tribute page. So I thought to myself, why don't

01:31:55.289 --> 01:31:59.289
I do something like that and celebrate all businesses

01:31:59.289 --> 01:32:03.670
that are gone? So I started, it was first called

01:32:03.670 --> 01:32:05.850
Chicago Extreme Businesses. So I started slowly

01:32:05.850 --> 01:32:09.670
and surely for a couple of years. And then someone

01:32:09.670 --> 01:32:12.210
reached out to me. It was from a local newspaper.

01:32:12.920 --> 01:32:15.140
And actually, I'd like to do an interview with

01:32:15.140 --> 01:32:18.260
you. And I said, okay. And then so he interviewed

01:32:18.260 --> 01:32:21.239
me. And then he published the interview online.

01:32:21.460 --> 01:32:24.119
And then that's when it took off. And I had like

01:32:24.119 --> 01:32:29.859
about 32 ,000 likes in one day. Damn. Yeah, I

01:32:29.859 --> 01:32:33.739
know. I was like, wait a minute. Wow. And then

01:32:33.739 --> 01:32:38.020
that was my moment of being famous for that.

01:32:38.439 --> 01:32:41.060
And then I've been interviewed on radio, interviewed

01:32:41.060 --> 01:32:43.819
on newspapers. I haven't been on TV yet. Not

01:32:43.819 --> 01:32:48.340
so far. Not yet. So now people associate with

01:32:48.340 --> 01:32:50.899
me with that. And it's been like that ever since.

01:32:50.939 --> 01:32:53.380
And it gets popular and popular and popular.

01:32:53.939 --> 01:32:57.659
And I still receive texts and emails from people.

01:32:57.720 --> 01:33:00.539
Can you please find me this? Can you post this

01:33:00.539 --> 01:33:03.699
for me? I get a lot of requests every day. That's

01:33:03.699 --> 01:33:06.300
the majority of my day of answering that. And

01:33:06.300 --> 01:33:10.819
then the media took notice, and they love it,

01:33:10.840 --> 01:33:15.119
and it's wonderful. And let's see, what else?

01:33:15.300 --> 01:33:21.899
So I created a group, too. So right now I have

01:33:21.899 --> 01:33:26.920
about almost 240 ,000 members. And it's still

01:33:26.920 --> 01:33:30.000
growing. So what are some of the radio shows

01:33:30.000 --> 01:33:35.319
you've been on? I've been on WGN Radio, WBZ,

01:33:35.659 --> 01:33:39.020
WBBM. Yeah, I've been to three of those. I'm

01:33:39.020 --> 01:33:41.640
trying to think. There must be one more. Oh,

01:33:41.720 --> 01:33:45.359
I was on The Loop. Oh. With Mancow. How was that?

01:33:45.500 --> 01:33:48.800
I grew up loving that guy, and I've DM'd him,

01:33:48.840 --> 01:33:51.199
and he's a fascinating cat. Not everybody likes

01:33:51.199 --> 01:33:54.420
him, but what was your experience with him? Oh,

01:33:54.420 --> 01:33:57.560
he was very quiet, and he liked me. I didn't

01:33:57.560 --> 01:34:02.899
talk to him much, but... But he was very interested,

01:34:03.020 --> 01:34:04.840
so that was good. As long as I was on the show

01:34:04.840 --> 01:34:07.020
with him, that was great. That was a very interesting

01:34:07.020 --> 01:34:10.479
experience for me. What did he have? Did he have

01:34:10.479 --> 01:34:13.319
women there? Because he's always got seven guests

01:34:13.319 --> 01:34:18.760
on. He had a few men. There was one girl there.

01:34:20.000 --> 01:34:22.699
Her name was Kathy. Oh, Kathy's awesome. Yeah,

01:34:22.699 --> 01:34:27.619
Kathy the Greek. Yeah, she's the one who contacted

01:34:27.619 --> 01:34:30.909
me and asked me to appear. Yeah, she's very sweet.

01:34:31.050 --> 01:34:34.550
Very sweet person. And so, yeah, so that was

01:34:34.550 --> 01:34:39.270
my experience for Mancow. And I've done an interview

01:34:39.270 --> 01:34:41.710
on the radio throughout the years, maybe once

01:34:41.710 --> 01:34:45.909
a year, maybe once or twice a year. And I had

01:34:45.909 --> 01:34:49.189
newspaper articles. I had one from the Sun -Times

01:34:49.189 --> 01:34:54.800
about a couple of years ago. And magazines. Yeah,

01:34:54.960 --> 01:34:57.060
I was interviewed by Chicago Magazine. Nice.

01:34:57.819 --> 01:35:02.199
Very nice. Yeah, it was very good. And it's amazing,

01:35:02.319 --> 01:35:05.180
you know, because a lot of people, you know,

01:35:05.199 --> 01:35:08.420
they love the page. They love that. And also,

01:35:08.520 --> 01:35:10.659
you know, they're also concerned about my health

01:35:10.659 --> 01:35:15.180
and what's going on. So that's, I get a lot of

01:35:15.180 --> 01:35:18.100
support. That's going to be awesome because I

01:35:18.100 --> 01:35:21.300
always feel like when you're facing cancer, why

01:35:21.300 --> 01:35:25.619
not be positive? You know what I mean? Yes, because

01:35:25.619 --> 01:35:30.260
I caught it early. And I always tell people,

01:35:30.500 --> 01:35:33.500
mostly men, because it's prostate cancer, please

01:35:33.500 --> 01:35:36.180
go see, if there's something wrong with you,

01:35:36.220 --> 01:35:38.439
if there's nothing right, please go see a doctor.

01:35:38.739 --> 01:35:42.319
It'll save your life. And some men are stubborn,

01:35:42.520 --> 01:35:48.500
but some do. And they thank me for that. It's

01:35:48.500 --> 01:35:51.659
very touching. It's almost a tear. They tell

01:35:51.659 --> 01:35:54.149
me that, yeah, you... Well, what you said, you

01:35:54.149 --> 01:35:57.930
know, that you're very inspiring to do that.

01:35:58.270 --> 01:36:01.869
Now, growing up, well, for example, I interviewed

01:36:01.869 --> 01:36:05.210
Mark Giancarlo last year, and he said that Chicago

01:36:05.210 --> 01:36:09.529
radio and TV was like the Hollywood of Los Angeles.

01:36:09.649 --> 01:36:12.109
So everybody knew all the anchors. Everybody

01:36:12.109 --> 01:36:14.350
knew all the radio hosts. And I feel like it's

01:36:14.350 --> 01:36:17.170
not the same as it was back in the day. Who were

01:36:17.170 --> 01:36:20.390
some of your favorite TV and radio people from

01:36:20.390 --> 01:36:23.789
Chicago? Um, when I was growing up, I liked,

01:36:23.829 --> 01:36:29.430
uh, Bob Surratt and John Landecker. Um, and people

01:36:29.430 --> 01:36:32.369
else. Uh, you know, there's so many, you know,

01:36:32.449 --> 01:36:35.550
as a matter of fact, Bob Surratt knows what I'm

01:36:35.550 --> 01:36:38.750
doing. That's, that's, that's, that's kind of

01:36:38.750 --> 01:36:41.090
cool. Yeah, it is. Um, but yeah, but right now,

01:36:41.229 --> 01:36:44.409
um, the people that like me much is the people

01:36:44.409 --> 01:36:48.930
from WGN TV. Yeah. Yeah. They, they like, they

01:36:48.930 --> 01:36:52.170
like what I do. And I do talk to them. from time

01:36:52.170 --> 01:36:56.289
to time, you know, then, uh, and let's see who

01:36:56.289 --> 01:36:59.670
else, but, uh, mostly some from WLS, you know,

01:36:59.670 --> 01:37:01.470
Chicago, you know, television. Yeah. I talked

01:37:01.470 --> 01:37:04.050
to a few people like that. Uh, channel two, channel

01:37:04.050 --> 01:37:08.609
five, not much, not really. Uh, but whenever

01:37:08.609 --> 01:37:11.930
I post something on X or Facebook, they do see

01:37:11.930 --> 01:37:14.810
that and they reply or they like it. So yeah,

01:37:14.810 --> 01:37:20.170
so all of them know who I am, what I do. And

01:37:20.170 --> 01:37:23.949
it's wonderful. I feel like I'm in this group

01:37:23.949 --> 01:37:26.869
of them. Do you understand? Oh no, I get it.

01:37:27.010 --> 01:37:28.949
There is the saying you don't want to meet your

01:37:28.949 --> 01:37:32.010
heroes but the one exception for me is Eddie

01:37:32.010 --> 01:37:33.890
Volkman from the Eddie and Jobo show. I grew

01:37:33.890 --> 01:37:36.470
up listening to Eddie and Jobo. I can't specify

01:37:36.470 --> 01:37:38.970
enough how much I love the Eddie and Jobo show.

01:37:39.289 --> 01:37:42.409
And I sat in on Eddie Volkman's show at Star

01:37:42.409 --> 01:37:46.189
96 .7 back in like August and he's done some

01:37:46.189 --> 01:37:49.310
liners for me and it's so cool. I bet you have

01:37:49.390 --> 01:37:51.909
The same feeling about Bob Surratt. It's so cool

01:37:51.909 --> 01:37:55.090
when you actually meet a hero that's like a big

01:37:55.090 --> 01:37:58.090
supporter and fan, you know? Oh yeah, it's great.

01:37:58.289 --> 01:38:02.250
And I do talk to Eddie on Facebook. He's great.

01:38:02.270 --> 01:38:05.090
I love Eddie. He is a wonderful man. Wonderful

01:38:05.090 --> 01:38:07.829
man indeed. Because I talk about his dad, you

01:38:07.829 --> 01:38:11.869
know, Harry Volkman. He did the weather. So Eddie,

01:38:11.989 --> 01:38:13.329
you know, sometimes he posts something and I

01:38:13.329 --> 01:38:16.989
say something funny. Yeah. And he starts laughing

01:38:16.989 --> 01:38:21.829
at me. Yeah, we communicate. He's a wonderful

01:38:21.829 --> 01:38:24.149
man. He really is. He's a good guy. Where did

01:38:24.149 --> 01:38:28.050
you grow up in Chicago? Actually, I grew up in

01:38:28.050 --> 01:38:30.829
three neighborhoods in Chicago on the south side.

01:38:30.909 --> 01:38:35.010
One was South Shore. I lived there when I was

01:38:35.010 --> 01:38:38.449
six. Then I moved to Roseland for five years

01:38:38.449 --> 01:38:42.329
because my dad owned a property there. We lived

01:38:42.329 --> 01:38:44.930
in an apartment building above a shoe store.

01:38:45.399 --> 01:38:48.279
And then in 1974, I moved to Ashburn, that's

01:38:48.279 --> 01:38:51.199
on the south side, and lived there for about

01:38:51.199 --> 01:38:57.279
25 years. And because I went to Bogan High School,

01:38:57.340 --> 01:39:00.939
you know, I went there. And then in 1995, I moved.

01:39:01.199 --> 01:39:04.220
And then I moved to Antoine. So I'm a suburbanite.

01:39:04.500 --> 01:39:06.819
I've been a suburbanite for, but most of my life

01:39:06.819 --> 01:39:11.140
I've been a Chicagoan. To Chicago. Now, I'm from

01:39:11.140 --> 01:39:13.239
Arlington Heights. I went to Hersey High School,

01:39:13.380 --> 01:39:17.180
Thomas Middle School, Patton, and did you ever

01:39:17.180 --> 01:39:21.060
have any experience in the Heights? In Arlington

01:39:21.060 --> 01:39:23.920
Heights? Not really, but I used to work in Rolling

01:39:23.920 --> 01:39:28.300
Meadows. Oh, nice. Yeah, American Express Travel.

01:39:28.420 --> 01:39:32.060
I worked there for about 12 years. And I did,

01:39:32.180 --> 01:39:34.460
you know, Arlington Heights is nearby, you know.

01:39:34.970 --> 01:39:38.130
And so, yeah, I'm very familiar with the area.

01:39:38.350 --> 01:39:41.390
So that was the best job I ever had. And I worked

01:39:41.390 --> 01:39:45.270
as a ticketer. I issued tickets. And I still

01:39:45.270 --> 01:39:49.659
miss the job to this day. I really miss it. Yeah.

01:39:50.020 --> 01:39:52.720
You know what's one thing that is the biggest

01:39:52.720 --> 01:39:56.460
difference about Florida and Illinois? Like let's

01:39:56.460 --> 01:39:58.880
say when Dominic's went out of business in 2013

01:39:58.880 --> 01:40:01.960
and they closed a lot of the stores in 04, the

01:40:01.960 --> 01:40:05.659
lot will remain empty for 20 years. In Florida,

01:40:05.800 --> 01:40:08.000
something gets picked up six months later. And

01:40:08.000 --> 01:40:09.819
that was the biggest thing I've noticed about

01:40:09.819 --> 01:40:13.420
the difference. I was always fascinated by dead

01:40:13.420 --> 01:40:16.640
malls. I loved Randhurst Mall. And I always loved

01:40:16.640 --> 01:40:18.380
like me and my friends, maybe we were Broken

01:40:18.380 --> 01:40:20.600
Weed, but we would be hanging out in front of

01:40:20.600 --> 01:40:24.760
the empty Dominick's in Prospect Heights. It's

01:40:24.760 --> 01:40:26.800
something you don't think about until you move,

01:40:26.840 --> 01:40:29.359
Pete, is there's a lot of empty lots in Illinois.

01:40:29.579 --> 01:40:33.960
It's just fascinating. Yeah, there is. Most of

01:40:33.960 --> 01:40:36.659
Dominick's have been replaced. I know a couple

01:40:36.659 --> 01:40:39.439
on the south side that haven't, so I don't know

01:40:39.439 --> 01:40:43.539
what's going on, but I miss the store. I really

01:40:43.539 --> 01:40:46.119
do. It is a great store. Dominick's Pizza was

01:40:46.119 --> 01:40:52.329
the absolute best. Oh, okay. Yeah, I don't think

01:40:52.329 --> 01:40:55.250
I ever had their pizza. I had Jewel's. It was

01:40:55.250 --> 01:40:58.970
$5. My mom couldn't afford Domino's and that,

01:40:59.069 --> 01:41:00.729
so we would go there and I would get a fruit

01:41:00.729 --> 01:41:05.069
punch soda. It was the best. Oh, that's great.

01:41:05.250 --> 01:41:06.810
Yeah, that sounds good. That's a great memory.

01:41:07.210 --> 01:41:10.789
Oh, dude, phenomenal. The one thing I want to

01:41:10.789 --> 01:41:14.279
ask you, what's been the... biggest difference

01:41:14.279 --> 01:41:16.779
in Chicago from when you were growing up to now,

01:41:16.840 --> 01:41:19.720
obviously I think the crime has gotten worse,

01:41:19.779 --> 01:41:22.239
but like, what's the big difference you noticed

01:41:22.239 --> 01:41:29.340
in the city? Uh, it's changing. Uh, you know,

01:41:29.380 --> 01:41:33.140
businesses come and go. They really do. Uh, you

01:41:33.140 --> 01:41:37.079
know, and, um, you know, uh, department stores

01:41:37.079 --> 01:41:40.020
are gone mostly, you know, downtown, which is

01:41:40.020 --> 01:41:42.119
a shame, you know, like Marshall fields and,

01:41:42.119 --> 01:41:47.430
uh, Carson's. What's the other one? Top of my

01:41:47.430 --> 01:41:53.970
head. Sears. Yes, of course. There was Sears.

01:41:54.029 --> 01:41:57.050
Then we had the other stores, like the discount

01:41:57.050 --> 01:42:01.890
stores, like Zare, Venture. Now we have Target

01:42:01.890 --> 01:42:06.289
and Walmart. We had those when I was a kid. They

01:42:06.289 --> 01:42:11.699
were great stores. It evolves. Everything evolves

01:42:11.699 --> 01:42:18.479
like that. But most people want some of the stories

01:42:18.479 --> 01:42:20.899
back, especially Marshall Fields. They want it

01:42:20.899 --> 01:42:25.439
back. They want it back so badly. I do too. But

01:42:25.439 --> 01:42:27.960
we don't know if it is going to come back because

01:42:27.960 --> 01:42:34.279
whoever runs the story is stubborn. But I have

01:42:34.279 --> 01:42:37.319
a feeling once we bring back the name, It'll

01:42:37.319 --> 01:42:40.140
be wonderful. It'll be awesome. People will come

01:42:40.140 --> 01:42:43.439
back because they miss it. And I miss it too.

01:42:43.619 --> 01:42:48.359
So we'll see. What did you think of Sears? I'm

01:42:48.359 --> 01:42:49.699
not going to say which family member because

01:42:49.699 --> 01:42:51.859
it's easy to find online. But I have a family

01:42:51.859 --> 01:42:53.800
member that was the head executive for like the

01:42:53.800 --> 01:42:56.359
Midwest branch of Sears. And I remember around

01:42:56.359 --> 01:42:58.979
05, 06 when I was really beginning to pick up

01:42:58.979 --> 01:43:01.779
memories. She was always concerned because Amazon

01:43:01.779 --> 01:43:04.720
was coming around and just kind of doing its

01:43:04.720 --> 01:43:07.770
thing. What did you think of Sears in its prime,

01:43:07.869 --> 01:43:11.149
and what happened to it? Let's see what happened.

01:43:11.250 --> 01:43:13.770
You know, back in the old days, like the 50s

01:43:13.770 --> 01:43:16.949
and the 60s, and maybe early 70s, it was a wonderful

01:43:16.949 --> 01:43:22.210
store. Their management was great. Customer service

01:43:22.210 --> 01:43:27.970
was so top -notch. Then it just, all of a sudden,

01:43:28.010 --> 01:43:33.170
it just declined. And then when you go to Sears

01:43:33.170 --> 01:43:35.880
before it closed, You couldn't find a salesperson,

01:43:35.979 --> 01:43:40.520
you know. And it was like, what the heck? And

01:43:40.520 --> 01:43:43.159
then, you know, but it's so nostalgic. You know,

01:43:43.159 --> 01:43:46.119
people miss the store very much because whenever

01:43:46.119 --> 01:43:49.960
you need something, you go there. If you want

01:43:49.960 --> 01:43:52.180
a washing machine or you want to buy a Kenmore

01:43:52.180 --> 01:43:55.180
or a stove or a refrigerator, boom, there it

01:43:55.180 --> 01:43:59.000
is. You go and buy it and pick it up, you know.

01:43:59.000 --> 01:44:02.939
And it was always available. It was right there.

01:44:02.979 --> 01:44:06.960
It was accessible like that. And, uh, but now

01:44:06.960 --> 01:44:12.159
it's gone. Um, which is a shame is because, um,

01:44:12.340 --> 01:44:15.180
they had their, um, they had the Tuscan jeans.

01:44:15.399 --> 01:44:19.000
They had, uh, the diehard batteries, you know,

01:44:19.000 --> 01:44:22.819
and, uh, the, of course those Sears wishbook,

01:44:22.939 --> 01:44:25.800
they come out every year for Christmas. Oh, that

01:44:25.800 --> 01:44:28.979
was awesome. You know, but, uh, I do post now

01:44:28.979 --> 01:44:32.550
and then, you know, about Sears stuff. because

01:44:32.550 --> 01:44:36.149
the last one closed in Woodfield, in Schaumburg.

01:44:36.250 --> 01:44:39.109
That was the way I got into Woodfield, was either

01:44:39.109 --> 01:44:43.850
that or Carson's. Yes. Carson's was a great store.

01:44:44.250 --> 01:44:48.909
Very good store. It was a little less expensive

01:44:48.909 --> 01:44:53.090
than Marshall Fields, but their quality was wonderful.

01:44:53.430 --> 01:44:57.770
It was top -notch. It was great. And like I said,

01:44:57.810 --> 01:44:59.850
if you need something at Carson's, you go right

01:44:59.850 --> 01:45:04.560
there. Pick it up, buy it, take it home. That's

01:45:04.560 --> 01:45:08.100
how it was. I love deep dish pizza, but I'm more

01:45:08.100 --> 01:45:11.600
of a thin crust fan. What is your take on Chicago

01:45:11.600 --> 01:45:17.060
pizza? Oh, I like all pizza. Deep dish is fine.

01:45:17.239 --> 01:45:18.899
Thin crust is fine. As a matter of fact, one

01:45:18.899 --> 01:45:21.859
of my favorites is Dito and Nick's. That's on

01:45:21.859 --> 01:45:24.060
85th and Pulaski in Chicago because I used to

01:45:24.060 --> 01:45:26.319
live in that old neighborhood. I went there maybe

01:45:26.319 --> 01:45:29.590
a couple of years ago. People flock there all

01:45:29.590 --> 01:45:32.970
the time because it's very unique. They don't

01:45:32.970 --> 01:45:37.890
accept cash. And it's something different. It's

01:45:37.890 --> 01:45:42.810
very good. But pizza, I love. It's thin crust,

01:45:43.010 --> 01:45:47.010
thick crust, deep dish, stuffed. I'm all for

01:45:47.010 --> 01:45:51.130
it. My favorite toppings is just sausage and

01:45:51.130 --> 01:45:58.550
pepperoni. You don't like fruit? No fruit? Fruit?

01:45:58.550 --> 01:46:00.489
Oh, on the pizza? You mean like pineapple? Yeah,

01:46:00.510 --> 01:46:04.970
yeah. I tried it once, but you know, it tastes

01:46:04.970 --> 01:46:08.130
strange, but you know, I have an open mind. I'd

01:46:08.130 --> 01:46:11.069
like to try it again. It's not bad, but I'm not

01:46:11.069 --> 01:46:14.090
going, like I've had pineapple pizza be dropped

01:46:14.090 --> 01:46:16.489
off in my radio jobs over the years and it's

01:46:16.489 --> 01:46:18.930
like edible, but I would never order it. You

01:46:18.930 --> 01:46:23.670
know what I mean? I think so. No, you know, but

01:46:23.670 --> 01:46:27.720
I'll try it someday, you know, but. We have some

01:46:27.720 --> 01:46:30.060
good pizza places, especially near my house.

01:46:30.180 --> 01:46:34.359
So you can't find it anywhere else. Yeah. What

01:46:34.359 --> 01:46:36.460
are your favorite memories of like Chicago sports

01:46:36.460 --> 01:46:40.760
over the years? Well, sports, I'm not much of

01:46:40.760 --> 01:46:44.699
a sports fan. Oh, really? Not really. But when

01:46:44.699 --> 01:46:47.500
I go to a game, like for example, I've been to

01:46:47.500 --> 01:46:51.520
a Hawks game and I've been to the Cubs. And if

01:46:51.520 --> 01:46:54.739
you're there, the experience of watching the

01:46:54.739 --> 01:46:59.550
game, is great. I love that. On TV, it's kind

01:46:59.550 --> 01:47:03.350
of dull, but when you're at the game with the

01:47:03.350 --> 01:47:07.189
crowds and you see the players, that's kind of

01:47:07.189 --> 01:47:10.210
exciting. That's very exciting. I had a good

01:47:10.210 --> 01:47:13.229
time there. I really did. It's not the same on

01:47:13.229 --> 01:47:15.470
TV because you have the announcers, they're talking,

01:47:15.729 --> 01:47:18.590
and they have the commercials and all that. But

01:47:18.590 --> 01:47:22.069
when you're at an actual game, it doesn't matter

01:47:22.069 --> 01:47:24.329
what sport, the Bulls, the Hawks, the Bears,

01:47:25.579 --> 01:47:28.159
There's nothing like it. There's nothing like

01:47:28.159 --> 01:47:32.000
it. I cannot ask a person who's from Chicago

01:47:32.000 --> 01:47:35.399
that grew up in the 70s, I cannot ask them and

01:47:35.399 --> 01:47:37.760
I cannot interview them without asking this.

01:47:37.960 --> 01:47:40.960
What was your experience with disco demolition?

01:47:40.979 --> 01:47:43.420
Were you at it? What's your experience with it?

01:47:44.159 --> 01:47:49.479
Well, here's the story. It happened in July 1979.

01:47:50.039 --> 01:47:53.579
The thing is, me and my family, we were in Greece.

01:47:54.279 --> 01:47:57.359
Oh, wow. Wow. Yeah, we were in Greece, and I

01:47:57.359 --> 01:48:00.539
had no idea what was going on. But my brother

01:48:00.539 --> 01:48:04.060
received a letter from his friend in Greece and

01:48:04.060 --> 01:48:08.880
told him about it. And we had no idea. But when

01:48:08.880 --> 01:48:13.300
we came back, like, late August, my whole neighborhood,

01:48:13.439 --> 01:48:15.699
everyone was talking about it, the kids in high

01:48:15.699 --> 01:48:19.039
school that I went. you know bogan they went

01:48:19.039 --> 01:48:21.600
to that and it's like they said you missed the

01:48:21.600 --> 01:48:24.260
biggest thing you were well how was i supposed

01:48:24.260 --> 01:48:26.500
to know my parent my mom wanted to go to greece

01:48:26.500 --> 01:48:29.300
and that's and i didn't want to go anyway but

01:48:29.300 --> 01:48:32.640
uh we did and we stayed for two months and so

01:48:32.640 --> 01:48:34.800
i missed the entire disco demolition and i talked

01:48:34.800 --> 01:48:37.560
about it on my podcast and i do post pictures

01:48:37.560 --> 01:48:41.359
of that yeah on the podcast i explained my experience

01:48:41.359 --> 01:48:45.939
of that i'm not knowing about it. And that was

01:48:45.939 --> 01:48:49.500
fascinating. So it's a shame I missed it. Now,

01:48:49.560 --> 01:48:52.399
I was born in 93, so I didn't get to hear the

01:48:52.399 --> 01:48:54.260
loop and it's hate day, but I've heard a lot

01:48:54.260 --> 01:48:58.100
of it online. But Jonathan Brand, Johnny B's

01:48:58.100 --> 01:49:02.739
second run on 97 .9 The Loop in 05 and when Dahl

01:49:02.739 --> 01:49:06.680
was on Jack FM and WCKG, both of those guys,

01:49:06.760 --> 01:49:10.600
dude, define radio for sure. Oh, that was great

01:49:10.600 --> 01:49:15.340
times. I listened to WCKG all the time. I listen

01:49:15.340 --> 01:49:17.220
to all radio stations, you know, when there's

01:49:17.220 --> 01:49:19.399
rock music. That's my favorite type of music.

01:49:20.319 --> 01:49:23.600
So when I was growing up, when I was in high

01:49:23.600 --> 01:49:27.859
school, we had The Loop, and we also had WMET.

01:49:27.859 --> 01:49:35.100
That was 95 1⁄2 FM. And also WLSFM. E96, right?

01:49:35.869 --> 01:49:40.609
Yeah, I did listen to B96 in the early 80s. And

01:49:40.609 --> 01:49:43.770
that was a fun time. That was a fun time. I loved

01:49:43.770 --> 01:49:46.050
that era. I used to listen to it all the time.

01:49:46.130 --> 01:49:51.489
Because music was changing. And I was there when

01:49:51.489 --> 01:49:55.890
WLSFM turned into WDAI and it turned into the

01:49:55.890 --> 01:49:59.760
disco station. Yeah. And then it went back to

01:49:59.760 --> 01:50:02.619
rock about a couple years later. So I was there

01:50:02.619 --> 01:50:05.039
when I listened to all of that. You know what

01:50:05.039 --> 01:50:08.699
I've heard about? Z -95 is what I've heard about

01:50:08.699 --> 01:50:13.760
too. Yes. I did listen to that. I really did.

01:50:13.920 --> 01:50:17.649
It wasn't very long, but yeah. I remember that

01:50:17.649 --> 01:50:20.189
very well well from what I've read because I'm

01:50:20.189 --> 01:50:23.050
a huge like how you love the past about Chicago

01:50:23.050 --> 01:50:26.090
I love radio and Chicago radio so I've listened

01:50:26.090 --> 01:50:28.649
to a lot of stuff online and I believe it was

01:50:28.649 --> 01:50:31.789
his name was Jason Barsky came to Chicago and

01:50:31.789 --> 01:50:33.890
tried to take out Eddie and Jobo but that was

01:50:33.890 --> 01:50:36.050
kind of when Eddie and Jobo were first beginning

01:50:36.050 --> 01:50:39.399
because Eddie was doing mornings by himself for

01:50:39.399 --> 01:50:41.420
a few years and he told me and he said it on

01:50:41.420 --> 01:50:43.600
my show and he told me in person that having

01:50:43.600 --> 01:50:46.979
Jobo was the perfect kind of like, almost like

01:50:46.979 --> 01:50:50.500
devil to angel on your shoulder because Eddie's

01:50:50.500 --> 01:50:53.760
a very clean cut, classy guy and Jobo's a little

01:50:53.760 --> 01:50:57.779
more unpredictable, you know? Yeah. Yeah, I did

01:50:57.779 --> 01:50:59.939
listen to those guys. Actually, I'm friends with

01:50:59.939 --> 01:51:03.579
them. I'm friends with Jobo on Facebook. Jobo's

01:51:03.579 --> 01:51:08.659
hilarious. Amazon package of the day. I love

01:51:08.659 --> 01:51:11.460
it. Every day you get to see what Jobo bought

01:51:11.460 --> 01:51:14.920
on Amazon. And I love the comments. He never

01:51:14.920 --> 01:51:17.539
responds, but he'll post something to like troll

01:51:17.539 --> 01:51:20.479
people. And then like 70 Karens will be like

01:51:20.479 --> 01:51:25.119
Jobo. It's amazing. Oh, that is beautiful. Absolutely

01:51:25.119 --> 01:51:29.079
beautiful. Now in your whole lifetime, before

01:51:29.079 --> 01:51:31.079
I let you go, what is your absolute favorite

01:51:31.079 --> 01:51:36.000
thing about Chicago? My favorite absolutely thing,

01:51:36.340 --> 01:51:43.260
you know, this is kind of strange because, you

01:51:43.260 --> 01:51:45.699
know, I have the page. I love doing that. That's

01:51:45.699 --> 01:51:49.779
my passion. But, you know, every year, you see,

01:51:49.800 --> 01:51:51.720
I'm a comic book fan. Yeah. I'm a huge comic

01:51:51.720 --> 01:51:54.739
book fan. And I go to, what's it called, Fan

01:51:54.739 --> 01:51:58.539
Expo in Rosemont every August. Oh, nice. Yeah.

01:51:58.659 --> 01:52:01.260
I go every year. I've been doing that for almost

01:52:01.260 --> 01:52:04.760
30 years. I'm going there. I just love it because

01:52:04.760 --> 01:52:08.000
it's a great place to escape, you know, look

01:52:08.000 --> 01:52:10.300
at comics. They have celebrities there. It's

01:52:10.300 --> 01:52:13.579
like my Disneyland there. That's what it is.

01:52:14.100 --> 01:52:16.960
And, you know, I'm 61 years old. I'm still doing

01:52:16.960 --> 01:52:19.239
this stuff, you know, but I enjoy it. I really

01:52:19.239 --> 01:52:23.300
do because I'm a huge fan of that. And, you know,

01:52:23.359 --> 01:52:25.979
other things I like in Chicago, you know, we

01:52:25.979 --> 01:52:28.420
have so much culture. There's so many beautiful

01:52:28.420 --> 01:52:31.960
things to see, so many things to learn. That's

01:52:31.960 --> 01:52:35.359
what's great about that. And you meet the people.

01:52:35.840 --> 01:52:38.640
The people are wonderful. They really are. Before

01:52:38.640 --> 01:52:41.319
I let you go, do a quick plug. Tell everybody

01:52:41.319 --> 01:52:46.939
about everything you're up to. Okay. I run the

01:52:46.939 --> 01:52:49.180
page. It's called Van Chicago Land. I also have

01:52:49.180 --> 01:52:53.140
a group, the same name. I also have a podcast.

01:52:53.239 --> 01:52:55.720
It's called Van Chicago Land Stories, the podcast.

01:52:56.640 --> 01:53:01.939
You can find it on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon

01:53:01.939 --> 01:53:05.680
Music, any app that has podcasts. I also have

01:53:05.680 --> 01:53:09.800
a YouTube channel. You can find a podcast as

01:53:09.800 --> 01:53:12.500
well. You can do a search engine. I say this

01:53:12.500 --> 01:53:14.560
every time I do a podcast. I tell them where

01:53:14.560 --> 01:53:16.920
you can find them, where you can find the podcast.

01:53:17.000 --> 01:53:19.880
You can listen anywhere, on your phone, your

01:53:19.880 --> 01:53:24.520
desktop, your car, any place. So that's what

01:53:24.520 --> 01:53:28.029
I do. Well, Pete, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt

01:53:28.029 --> 01:53:30.850
you, but it's been a lot of fun having you on

01:53:30.850 --> 01:53:35.189
the show. I'm coming to Chicago in May for my,

01:53:35.270 --> 01:53:38.789
I can't believe it, my 2007 born cousin is graduating

01:53:38.789 --> 01:53:41.689
high school. So I decided I had like a free plane

01:53:41.689 --> 01:53:44.229
ticket kind of deal to like fly out. And I was

01:53:44.229 --> 01:53:46.090
like, why not fly out for that? So I'm going

01:53:46.090 --> 01:53:49.449
to be in Chicago for my cousin's high school

01:53:49.449 --> 01:53:51.270
graduation. So if you're free, I would love to

01:53:51.270 --> 01:53:54.020
get coffee and meet you. Oh, that'd be wonderful.

01:53:54.319 --> 01:53:56.159
Yeah, that'd be great. We can get together. We

01:53:56.159 --> 01:53:59.020
could talk. You know, that'd be awesome. I will

01:53:59.020 --> 01:54:01.319
definitely hit you up. Pete, it's been a lot

01:54:01.319 --> 01:54:03.699
of fun having you on the show and thank you for

01:54:03.699 --> 01:54:05.600
everything you've done for the city of Chicago

01:54:05.600 --> 01:54:08.119
because it's very hard. It's called Vanished

01:54:08.119 --> 01:54:10.439
Chicagoland for the right reason. It's sometimes

01:54:10.439 --> 01:54:12.600
hard to find the memories, but when you see it

01:54:12.600 --> 01:54:14.539
on Facebook, you're like, you kind of get that

01:54:14.539 --> 01:54:19.100
like dopamine hit. Oh, I've never heard it that

01:54:19.100 --> 01:54:24.210
way before, but thank you. I appreciate that.

01:54:24.369 --> 01:54:28.310
I really do. It's a wonderful thing. I just love

01:54:28.310 --> 01:54:31.109
doing it. Pete, keep up the good work. Thank

01:54:31.109 --> 01:54:33.390
you for calling into Hoppy Hour with Ryan Hoppy.

01:54:34.130 --> 01:54:36.130
Oh, well, thank you, Ryan. I enjoyed talking

01:54:36.130 --> 01:54:38.289
to you. All right. Have a great day, and I will

01:54:38.289 --> 01:54:42.189
see you in May. Okay. That's a date. All right.

01:54:42.189 --> 01:54:45.430
Sounds good. All right. See you, bro. Okay, Brian.

01:54:45.529 --> 01:54:49.569
Bye. And that was Pete Kostanis of the Vanished

01:54:49.569 --> 01:54:52.970
Chicagoland brand and Vanished Chicagoland Stories,

01:54:53.149 --> 01:54:55.229
the podcast, as he called it in the Hoppy Hour.

01:54:55.289 --> 01:54:58.609
Now, I grew up in Chicago from 1993 to 2014.

01:54:58.770 --> 01:55:01.050
I listened to, I was huge in the radio. I listened

01:55:01.050 --> 01:55:04.689
to Eddie and Joe, Jonathan Brandmeier, Drex,

01:55:04.750 --> 01:55:09.840
Steve Dahl. Rover, Opie and Anthony, Roe and

01:55:09.840 --> 01:55:12.739
Gary. Can you tell I liked radio? So I interned

01:55:12.739 --> 01:55:15.380
at Dance Factory Radio and was on air with Lewis

01:55:15.380 --> 01:55:19.180
2 Live. Then I was on WNUR 89 .3 FM. I snuck

01:55:19.180 --> 01:55:22.380
into Northwestern University while going to the

01:55:22.380 --> 01:55:24.800
Illinois Media School, which is great. Then I

01:55:24.800 --> 01:55:29.779
was on WHCM 88 .3 Harper College Radio. And I

01:55:29.779 --> 01:55:31.739
also interned with Steve Dahl, who is the GOAT.

01:55:31.880 --> 01:55:33.859
So here's the thing, ladies and gentlemen, boys

01:55:33.859 --> 01:55:36.579
and girls, is my show is billed for you, Chicago.

01:55:36.779 --> 01:55:39.279
I have two versions. One where I do radio interviews

01:55:39.279 --> 01:55:42.479
and talk to people like Pete and I've interviewed

01:55:42.479 --> 01:55:46.020
Mark Giniograko. I have a whole archive of it.

01:55:46.279 --> 01:55:48.500
So here's the deal. Go to every single major

01:55:48.500 --> 01:55:51.140
platform that has a podcast and search up Hoppy

01:55:51.140 --> 01:55:55.939
Radio. H -O -P -P -E Radio. And I'm on all social

01:55:55.939 --> 01:55:58.880
media at Ryan Hoppy Radio. This has been Hoppy

01:55:58.880 --> 01:56:01.800
Hour. I am your host, Ryan Hoppy. And I expect

01:56:01.800 --> 01:56:15.220
you to tune in, Chicago. See our river that catches

01:56:15.220 --> 01:56:18.920
on fire. It's so polluted that all our fish have

01:56:18.920 --> 01:56:22.000
AIDS. See the sun almost three times a year.

01:56:22.239 --> 01:56:26.119
This guy has at least two DUIs. Let's look like

01:56:26.119 --> 01:56:28.920
a Scooby -Doo ghost town. Don't slow down in

01:56:28.920 --> 01:56:32.199
East Cleveland or you'll die. Our economy's based

01:56:32.199 --> 01:56:35.399
on LeBron James. Buy a house for the price of

01:56:35.399 --> 01:56:38.779
a PCR. Our main export is crippling depression.

01:56:39.300 --> 01:56:42.380
They used the R word here. We think this is our...

01:56:50.090 --> 01:56:51.949
people from looking at their own lives and realizing

01:56:51.949 --> 01:56:54.810
how bad they've actually gotten, you know? I

01:56:54.810 --> 01:56:59.470
mean, if you couldn't get drunk and paint yourself

01:56:59.470 --> 01:57:02.689
orange and brown every Sunday, you might realize,

01:57:02.909 --> 01:57:09.770
I live in Cleveland. How the hell did this happen?

01:57:10.170 --> 01:57:15.090
Did I used to eat babies up? And then he's looking

01:57:15.090 --> 01:57:16.630
around at your tiny little house that you can't

01:57:16.630 --> 01:57:18.250
afford because of the mortgage crisis and your

01:57:18.250 --> 01:57:20.810
horrible little sloppy kids who will have diabetes

01:57:20.810 --> 01:57:22.270
by the time they're eight because they live on

01:57:22.270 --> 01:57:26.130
corn syrup and lye. And then you look at your

01:57:26.130 --> 01:57:28.529
big bloated mess of a wife and she waddles towards

01:57:28.529 --> 01:57:30.350
you with her front butt spilling out over the

01:57:30.350 --> 01:57:32.930
top of her ass and long jeans. And he's like,

01:57:33.010 --> 01:57:34.710
I'm going to go shoot myself and my pregnant

01:57:34.710 --> 01:57:41.689
12 -year -old daughter, right? Do you regret

01:57:41.689 --> 01:57:43.859
anything that you said about Cleveland? I just

01:57:43.859 --> 01:57:49.100
don't know. You like it? You think Cleveland's

01:57:49.100 --> 01:57:51.220
cool? I mean, I never heard anybody say, I'm

01:57:51.220 --> 01:57:53.720
going to Cleveland on vacation. I just don't

01:57:53.720 --> 01:57:58.399
know. What's so great about Cleveland? I just

01:57:58.399 --> 01:58:02.119
don't know. Cleveland sucks. Cleveland sucks.

01:58:02.720 --> 01:58:26.729
Cleveland sucks. Cleveland sucks. Whether you're

01:58:26.729 --> 01:58:31.170
white, or black, or Sasquatch even. As long as

01:58:31.170 --> 01:58:34.310
you follow your dreams, no matter how crazy or

01:58:34.310 --> 01:58:37.630
against the law it is. Except for Sasquatch.

01:58:37.770 --> 01:58:40.649
If your Sasquatch rules are different. Forget

01:58:40.649 --> 01:58:44.630
it, Meatwad. I'm a circus freak. That's all I'll

01:58:44.630 --> 01:58:48.010
ever be. Whatever. Finally, I'm one of those

01:58:48.010 --> 01:58:49.869
guys who can't wait to get to work in the morning.

01:58:49.989 --> 01:58:59.100
Like a dairy cow. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh, yes! Yes! Oh!

01:59:04.380 --> 01:59:08.439
Strike the climate. Strike the climate. And he

01:59:08.439 --> 01:59:12.800
got it! Yes, yes, yes, yes! That is what I said!

01:59:13.260 --> 01:59:16.600
That's number five! Are you kidding me? That's

01:59:16.600 --> 01:59:20.619
right! Who do you think you are? I am! So if

01:59:20.619 --> 01:59:22.979
there's a few bucks left over, you know, go get

01:59:22.979 --> 01:59:29.479
something nice. two, please. Oh, do you have

01:59:29.479 --> 01:59:32.619
nine $1 ,000 ones? Yeah, good, and if you got

01:59:32.619 --> 01:59:35.619
an albino, send her up, too, and in, like, 20

01:59:35.619 --> 01:59:37.659
minutes, I'm gonna be asleep, so get them up

01:59:37.659 --> 01:59:40.579

01:59:40.640 --> 01:59:44.100
six beers, this whole f***ing bucket of chicken.

01:59:44.600 --> 02:00:06.720
Oh, the Sandman is coming. Oh, my a scientific

02:00:06.720 --> 02:00:11.399
discipline. Really? Why do you think they call

02:00:11.399 --> 02:00:15.159
me Dr. Quinn? I just thought that was a nickname.

02:00:15.479 --> 02:00:20.479
You know, like Dr. Gray. It's a stud. God, you're

02:00:20.479 --> 02:00:27.560

your favorite San Francisco DJ, Hammer Hank.

02:17:28.190 --> 02:17:31.170
I may look normal, but the truth is I have a

02:17:31.170 --> 02:17:34.209
condition called autism. That's right. It's a

02:17:34.209 --> 02:17:37.530
condition, not a disease. That is, autism can

02:17:37.530 --> 02:17:40.690
strike anyone, regardless of who they are. People

02:17:40.690 --> 02:17:42.969
with autism normally have difficulties in verbal

02:17:42.969 --> 02:17:46.149
and nonverbal communication skills, social interactions,

02:17:46.489 --> 02:18:00.879
and leisure activities. I have even worked in

02:18:00.879 --> 02:18:03.159
the San Francisco Bay Area as an honorary personality

02:18:03.159 --> 02:18:05.520
for many years. I will always remember that people

02:18:05.520 --> 02:18:07.940
with autism want the same things as you, to be

02:18:07.940 --> 02:18:10.319
happy and successful, and to find out more about

02:18:10.319 --> 02:18:21.389
you. The clock's a -jumpin', playin' cool breaks

02:18:28.549 --> 02:18:31.229
time to shatter dreams Oh, the happy hour is

02:18:31.229 --> 02:18:34.430
comin' still close Radio hits, made it like a

02:18:34.430 --> 02:18:37.510
well -composed Laughter and joy, dissolvin' in

02:18:37.510 --> 02:18:40.229
the air But we gave the rhythm all that's just

02:18:40.229 --> 02:18:50.750
so unfair is glowing dim. Ear drums mix and hop

02:18:50.750 --> 02:18:53.969
me like fingers without rings. CHX to FM. Shadows

02:18:53.969 --> 02:18:56.030
hit the street. As soon as sound will vanish

02:18:56.030 --> 02:19:49.840

02:19:55.040 --> 02:19:57.760
humor so divine The void left in our hearts wider

02:19:57.760 --> 02:20:06.540
than a canyon line LINE Empty speakers, silence,

02:20:06.600 --> 02:20:08.899
I'm a -comin' to an end Like a roller -coaster

02:20:08.899 --> 02:20:11.860
stoppin' round a river's bend Hoppy's jokes and

02:20:11.860 --> 02:20:14.479
bad scenes are daily grind Now silence louder

02:20:14.479 --> 02:21:08.110
than the thoughts we can't rewind And we'll call

02:21:08.110 --> 02:21:21.069
it a day. Poppy Hour is now over. Poppy Hour

02:21:21.069 --> 02:21:37.030
