So we've been updated that.

Eddie van Adler, And every time you period this world, there's nothing normal there. I was invited to a birthday party, a sixty year old birthday party for a former lead singer of a band that he was drumming in at a lake he had no idea where it was, a lake where he had never been. And now we get to what it was what we were trying to get to. But there's always so many more things to unpack with with Adler. But when now we're to the the the bike,

Look hold of that one.

This conversation is gonna go no further unless we place a sample.

Here's the old man with him holding Mark Sweat and the family band. Don't say the old man. He's y'all's age, you old man? So this is the old man Sweat band says Mark. This is not Mark Sweat. This is Mark Sweat and.

Go six six.

That's you after.

Right?

Which one is the Mark Sweats the lead singer. Don't make fun of him. I'm not making fun of him. And he looks in better health than all y'all come by now. I wouldn't go that far. That what you got a set of pipes on it? Greg, I'm on stack your face the release of the dog. I gotta hear him sing more.

Yeah, you mean Mark sweet That that's that's the that's that's the mad Yeah we were.

Is this from yesterday or a performance prior? This is I was at the lake on Saturday. This is just from that I was. This is from the lake on Saturday. So you decided to get shirtless. I was in the water with the lake. I was in the I was at the lake. Sweet, Mark Sweet's not shirtless. It's Mark Sweat. It's not Mark Sweet. Don't be mispronouncing my friend's names. Is this the old gentleman on the keyboards?

Is that him?

Who's the sixty year old Mark Sweat? It's the lead singer. Because the guy's playing.

He doesn't make sixty to me. So yeah, yeah, So y'all quit making fun of him doing your old man voice. That's why I was saying. The old man voice is so in buddy, put you off drum?

Did you have to put Kevin up during I tied him to a tree? Stop taking you're getting on.

People love him so much, and can I tell you something, Uh, person that only cares about themselves? You people that keep bringing your dog to other places where people have to deal with and we all hate that.

He told me to By the way, all right, well what bit you? All right?

Let me just set the scene for all the listeners that have no idea what's going on. This is the Rick and Bubba Show. Okay, I'm Adler, I am the TV producer. I'm a young guy, and they make fun of me all the time. I went to a lake party this weekend.

With an old man. Not true.

Somebody used the roach clip, great.

Trun I got a splitter in my foot and it was a quill.

I used.

I used Mark sweats and the stats because you used to be a paramedic to get this before singing career took off. It's something that we did for fun, because we enjoy our lives and we have. You've been in lo We're actually happy people and we have hobbies and stuff.

It's crazy.

It's like it's like we're from the outside world or something.

Man, it's nuts. I looked like a party. Now you're making fun of the party. Now you're making fun of especially the shirtless drummer. How if you continue not to get these legs.

So I thought, I just had a mosquito mic, so I leave the leg never get ahead, So I thought I leave the lake. The party went great, and I thought I shot.

A mosquito bike and then the next morning, I wake up and I had several other barks around it, several other marks around it.

It's like inflamed. And then I say, you know what, that's a spiderfy Did you feel it when it happened? When it happened, he was still Hey, that's your brown recluse, wasn't It was two and a half hours away. I know what. You drive there? It was two and a half hours away. I had to drive there and back in the same day. The way stay down there, I've.

Seen the way.

I've seen the way you hugg Kevin.

Is it possible he picked up something at the LA, playing in the bushes or whatever, and then carried it home and it bit you?

Well, I think you the la. It's bad.

Yeah, like you're dirty, a lot of spiders. It might be that flesh eating bacteria's and all every like that ever knows.

And you know where it got you. It came through your splinter opening. It went from my foot to my neck, is what you're saying. It's not true. That's not true. So you've either got a spiderby or flesh eating back. Look, who's gonna look at this serious? Who's gonna look at this? Seriously, everybody gets serious. Got a head on it. We're serious. It's a good question.

I think I had some experience with spiderby. It's a gross question, but it's a good I mean, I used a sign of something. It's speeding. I got ranking family member. It was bitten by brown lacrouse. And I'm the one that I didn't say that word. Yeah, like recluse. I like for them to call it the brown vampire something recluse. I got it brown recluse. No, it was just fan marks, though I think we need to lance it. Bubba looks

Looked at two of them to touch it, so I dare you, Yeah, there's two of them side by side. I dare you to touch it. That's a hickey right there at your point out little the one of the old group is put on.

Yeah?

Yeah yeah. I walked out of a hole in the whole meteorology world, rolled over a rodent for crying out loud? What back do I know about the weather? I walked out to get a breath of fresh air, and everybody's clicking cameras and running video at me.

Uh, did you see your shot?

Trying to do is eat a carrot here and wake up?

What about your shadow? Did you see it?

Phil?

If I saw my own shadow, I wouldn't know what it looked like. I'm a rodent. All I care about is eating and finding another rodent of the females fertuaites. I don't know nothing about the weather, much less today, much less six weeks from now. You know what I'm saying?

Why is that?

Because I'm a roadent? But they won't leave me alone?

What hey, Phil, how did this all get started?

One day I'm laying there in the hall, nothing going on, just like it always is. Nothing goes on in a rodent's wild. I walk out, snow starts to fall, some more on looking outside the case goes hey, look snow, groundhog, snow groundhog? Something up there. I don't know Hallmarkets involved. Next thing, you know, you got ground and I haven't had a liquor. Resent.

Now, phil are you getting the cut of all this groundhog mania?

Oh yeah, the Disney people are write me checkt daily. I still live in Philadelphia. Let me tell you something. One thing that's for sure. You walk out of the hole in Philadelphia. Guess what.

The weather's always bad, and they clean your windshield.

They do special things. I don't got no Disney World down there, you know, like Mickey Groundhog. You know there's none of that. No, I'm just a weather predictor.

What do you get tired of all this attention for you?

Oh yeah, oh yeah. As soon as February second comes along, I'm looking for a hamster around here and wants to take my place, because.

Nobody wants to do that, phil I mean so, I mean, so you don't know anything about the weather.

I could care less about the weather, you know, I mean, who cares you know, it's either gonna be cold or it's gonna be hot, it's gonna be dark, it's gonna be who cans Now?

How mean, how come you have that opinion.

Because I don't know nothing about weather?

Well?

Why is that? Because I'm a groundhog?

Phil?

But you're you're you're into the media and everything. Do you know, two or three days out of the year or something like that, what do you do the rest of the time.

Do you have a job or Yeah, I'm a groundhog. I lay in a hole, we eat carrots, and I go back to sleep in a hole.

I mean, is that your basic routine for the day.

If it was, I took it in college.

I just you know, ground entrance one oh one, and that's what I do. But all of a sudden, now I missed a weather predictor. I got no Doppler, no cother weather radar. Here, I look up, I go clouds. I'm good. I'm going back in Phil.

Let me ask you this, did you see the movie Groundhog Day? By chance?

I'm a groundhogs not much power and then don't make little round vas y'alls like a drag down the hall.

Did you get to meet any of the stars.

Came in the other day.

Who's that Dina Trump.

Oh yeah, that's a first class lady. She smells better than the entire world. I'm telling you. Wait a minute, spicking of smells. Oh that's me my first web again.

Sorry, Well, look, Phil, look, have a have a great day.

I take it that if you could tell the world one thing, what would you what would you What would you say?

I would like to say, you know, in the whole world of weather, phenomenon and things going on, from the farmer's armorac to things we can't explain, one thing stands clear to this day. I'm a groundpa Later.

Thanks Thanks Phil.

I don't know if you've seen the story of this job of this giant chicken everybody's talking about today, And I mean, and hey, this chicken is a big one big. When I first looked up, I thought it was fog horn lego. I mean, it looks like this thing is gigantic. What saying, Look at it coming out the chicken. Look at it coming out of the chicken. Gracious, it's as big as adler.

Now if you see it compared to is it just a fluffy chicken?

Say?

Look, how look how.

I'm saying it raised what nice has got? Like, see how little the chicken next to it is? It's under the steps.

Oh my goodness, that's that I mean? Are they look at I mean that things. But is a lot of that fluff under there though?

Now that's a big fat chicken pretty tall too, that is Yeah, it's almost like it walks out of there like you see a fat person in a mink coat.

Yeah, but look rick, he fit through that hole, so he's got to have a lot of he's big, but I got a lot of flood.

Look at those and uh yeah, he's bigger than that. I think, Now, what do you have? Eight tall?

The chickens are about thirteen to fourteen pounds, but they will get about eighteen to nineteen pounds. And I guess this is one of the larger ones.

What is it called brahmayn't have trouble putting him in a fifty.

Gear, they say, if you'll read through the video, they say that a second one walks out towards the end of the video. And then I pulled up Brahma chicken a minute ago. That's fun Google.

Yeah, and it has different ones and they're I mean enormous, but I think because if you have a bull, don't they have to hump on there? Yeah? Yeah, that's a camel one one hump or two.

But I think Tom's point, and this is the point I'm trying to make, is yes, the Brahma chickens are big in general, but this is a big brahma chicken.

Correct, big, bigger than normal? Yes, okay, king of all poultries with it? Why are we are we eating these? Because? I mean, to me, this is the way to go. They won't be good for that. Yeah, they're tough, probably black fish? Are they taste? That's true? Thank you, Grace.

I do that.

I mean we're just assuming that, do we chicken? Can you get out of this thing?

Well?

You get because they don't have chicken on them? Probably zero. Greg, Well you're a bowl of joy today. Well they did redo that.

It says that this breed greatest line ever was when you could throw in front of a chicken.

He said, I see nothing of the fer.

It says that this breed that we're seeing was developed in America from very large fowls imported from China, uh via the port of Shanghai and uh and so that's why they're there.

These are a little bit bigger.

Well, when he walks out, you remember like when you know George Clinton in Parliament would have come out of big mink coke. Yeah, he's got a mint coat on. But you can tell you the big man in that coat. Yeah, you know that that this is kind of the.

Way it looks.

What was that chicken that the cartoon? I say, I say, I say, I say, son, I needed I need some voice. I need that that voice.

I'm coming out the chicken coop when the chickens coming out, and that's what I'd love to have that together.

What is it him? I say, I say, whatever it is? You know you know that cartoon? I say, I say, I say, I like to have that boy over the chicken.

When you see coming out, okay, walking out, there's a big brama. So he's like stretching his legs coming out of the day, scared of the chicken. There's gonna be a dayf he keeps eating. Get out that that chicken. Yeah, where he is?

I say, good morning, I'm out here in the chicken coop, I say, but her, I'm stretching my legs just to tear, sweet sweet magno you.

Bobby you be the one that's around the corner. Be the dipping down of chicken ready to go. Well, don't hide under the two boy, come out where they can see it. Now he'll want to take our pictures.

The young man will be here with the chicken feet. We're slipping into the kernel a little bit.

I made a funny. Boy, you're not laughing, rick be singing a song. Follow me, do this and I'll take your picture. The food's nearly over here the yonder way. It doesn't appear to be here. I'm starving. We don't get some chicken feed soon, boy, you're gonna have issues. There he comes, he's coming out now, So am I that voice that chicken out?

I'm making you that.

Where's that food?

Desh uh? I heard you speak of it? Pardon me, but where's the feed? We have a need for feed.

This is the life of the king of all chickens, all right, talk to that so on it and get that whole in the chicken coop in lodge like where's that dog belvedere?

Ricking, ricking, Bubba.

So what so what else did with it? What else were we gonna cover? We had some other things we had Bob Denver went on. Then Rick Gilligan, yep, Uh, now what what happened?

Uh? I think he died of complications of his uh cancer he was suffering from.

Why am I Why?

I thinking he's been dead? It just feels like he's been dead to me, Please please tell me this is not what.

Was the other guy?

We thought that, we thought, we mourned and found out he'd been dead for a while. Pete, tell me this is in Pete Van, we're in Gilligan.

Uh.

It just seems that we've talked about this. It iss like he is. I think it is. I think it is too Now I look at what what does it say?

Uh?

The story I see says two thousand and five. He's really dead.

He just dead, he is.

Where did you get this? Well, it's a shame he pass and Uh he's been talking about this all morning. Where did you get that? I might have to find out where I got it from. It's just becoming a routine on the ship. You met that that in the Onion. It's wearing us out.

Chose to.

Rick years to hear that about Bob.

This a little lake getting tell me it's bothering me for ten years. This is a new thing though when next seat he ain't Petevan wearing was one year?

Right, you got this is a bunch of bigger. I mean, now we're getting into like it.

Had to come from either the mail online or Drudge, because that.

Was the only tail I was looking at this morning.

So I don't know, we know it's not Drudge. September second, thousand five. We got we've got to really start scrutinizing every day. Look, and I admit I've admitted I can't look Bubba and our two opposite ends of the spectrum. I kill people before they're dead. Bubba mourns them after they've been long down.

Yeah, you know, Rick, this may be a record here a decade, decade. There's people kin to him. Forgot he was this. I book marked the story I was looking at, and there there's the day well I need.

I knew Bubba may not be on his I knew it may not be in his game to day when he rushed him office said you hear about JFK and.

Hear about Johnny Cash.

All Right, you know what, I'm just going to start running those deaths by me. I'm gonna you know what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna I'm just look, I'm going to bar any death story.

You can't trust Internet, you can't, you can't trust you can't trust any of it.

I've made myself. They got the date right there on them, they got it. I've been burned. I made myself start looking. But you're well, the date may be in the fine print though, or it may not be on there.

But what I'm saying is, of course we wouldn't do it because you because we can't remember, sadly, But really, what we could do if our mine goes you know that doesn't seem right.

We could simply say you're typing their name. If I'm not.

Sure, let's say I don't. I don't remember it like y'all do. I don't keep up with right who.

If you asked me this morning, Greg, is Bob Bob Denver dead, I'd probably said I don't know.

He may not be.

I don't I didn't know he was dead. Well, we've talked about it all dry before we ever brought it on. There were some about having Marianne on them. Who who's there talking about a smoking pot? Who told you he was dead? Because we heard it from you? Well, I got it from the story that I bookmarked when I was doing show prep today.

Say right there, look right above it, right right above actor Bob Denver dies. Yeah, it's in a little tiny gray print. Right. What does it say? That's a date? What does it say? Two thousand and five? Two thousand?

Find I was still working in Alabama power. Yeah, but hey, hey Greg, I had no kids.

Two thousand. Where were we two thousands?

That may have been two stations ago. Yeah, but but obviously I didn't come in I didn't come in search on celebrity Day.

No.

I wondered where it came from.

I didn't do a search on Bob Denver, so I wouldn't have book marked it if I hadn't read it so in the show prep stuff, So I didn't it got but speedy, I did your show prep stuff, not the one you outline just in reading running.

Because I know sometimes people email me stories and I'll get all fired up and then I look to go away.

Man, this is old.

Ye.

Yeah, you don't have to go with the emails that an email, send your story. It's always wrong.

I think it came from I see closure on this.

I see where it came from. It came from Jason Benefield, one of our listeners. He said, I know this is going to crush Bubba. I think he was pulling.

He is smarter than just sending it to us. He gives us good He was doing a man we're in joke. He was, he was, And I guess that's that is a good one. Well, and again, you know that was I guess I should look a little closer. Well, no, Bubba, here's no listen. Look but I was flying.

I was flying through the email this morning, trying to get me and you were talking and about halfway time out, time out, time out. I understand that we all need to look at the I got that. But you know what's even more troubling. Can we not remember when people die? I mean, can't we just remember now Bob Denver's been dead? I mean, why can't we just remember that? No matter who tells us he stayed today, we'd be like, no, I don't think that's right.

Do you realize that if you wouldn't have said Gilligan, I didn't know who Bob Denver was until we said he was getting who thought he was the one that died in the planet I did?

That was.

Jason Jason.

And I will be doing no more celebrity desk ever. They just said they don't have to roll the cast get in here with flowers.

Hey, the emails pouring in or priceless guys that lets you know Elvis Presley passed.

A rock and rolling on it.

Well, that's on Bob then for not being a bigger celebrity. Let's know when he does.

Rick, Well, I mean if he was, if he we know when Elvis died, ain't nobody gonna get us on that one. See that if he would have been a bigger celebrity. Straight to trash. They brother said he will never do celebrity. Aye, never, If you leave us have a big day story at all.

Freaking Bubba, Rick and Bubba.

You know, our culture has has changed so much. But I don't know if y'all have been picking up on it and it's become you know, how something for the long.

If something starts happening enough, it just becomes normal, right, that becomes the new normal.

And I don't know, I guess all of us here. I'm looking around, Gregor, your kids are already grown. Most half mine are grown and the others are almost grown. So there's very's there's various degrees. Helmsey is living in it current day, but my situation is set up to where I actually have two that are twenty six and twenty five. So I've seen things change when it comes to youth sports and all that, even from their era to now. And one of the things I've noticed is

It sounds awful.

Now, I mean, you can meet a stranger. I mean a stranger I'm talking about.

You just met him.

You know, they do travel and all this. Hey, where you're from, Texas? He asked my kid out there. He's he runs about a four two four. Uh, he's he's scoring. He's scoring thirty five goals this year. They one day won championship. Then his travel team won a championship, and he's got about eight offers already, and he's he's only eleven, you know, and you're just like, good, gosh.

I just met you. I had to.

Know that guy.

Yeah, but no same voice. But y'all, that's normal now.

I mean, to meet someone who doesn't brag on their kid versus someone who it's not even I mean, it's it's unbelievable. This is because I don't know if y'all know that, y'all, that's kind of that's kind of bad form and people people do it all the time now, and it might be academics. She asks my daughter over, you know, she's calm, looty and got that award like that. She's got eight I got about this. She's got eleven academic scholarship overs. She's gonna be ahead of her class.

And this is nunblieve what you gotta side where she's gonna go. She got some offers.

And he's like, hey man, I'm just pumping gas. Yeah I just acknowledged you. I mean, I'm just pumping gas. That's my kid on taball right there. It's the tag up t ball coach you never seen him my hit like that t ball never never am her. He hit a home run four hundred foot fence off of tee. You know, you're like, hey, man, uh, we're church. I mean, where did this come from? I know, I know, I mean I was, I was. I was watching it and it hit me. It's become so much of the norm.

What's your name? You know, I mean, it's like, how is he he? The third grader? I'm sorry? What a savings are you looking at?

He went to that camp?

What you're talking about? The one that's peen in his pants? You know what I mean? Savings, that's the bigges. That's the biggest toddler he's ever seen. I mean, am I am? I You're living.

You have to understand, like when that didn't happen when we were I mean, it used to almost be the other way that parents would almost go too far not to they were so negative.

You know now it's completely gone the other way.

I mean, I'm talking about just blin I mean it just it's like a like a Riggan talks about to be monster.

People bragg on their kids.

It's unbelievable how that's become so normal in the culture.

Now that's my daughter.

She's beautiful, she's won eight eight beauty pageants, Miss so and so and so and so ain she sing like a bird that, hey, are we getting on American Idol?

She probably win it? Wow, you know she's she seems to be a nice lady. I agree with you. I'm not sure about all that. Maybe you know, I I love your bragging parent voice. Yeah, and I've met that. I'm looking at yose faces that it's not just this is everywhere, right, I.

Mean, now it's all about me. Hey, I got I got him over it. So and so he's already throwing in the nineties. He's eleven, isn't he ninety mile power fastball? Yankees already said something doing we got to side if he's gonna finish high school and how to go to the Yankees.

Really, that seems you know that, that really seems that seems like a lot.

You know what I mean, it's a big deal. He's he's really something. And and here's the thing that I've learned, and maybe y'all can help me. But I've noticed they don't really need a response. It's like they're a walking billboard. Bye bye bye by hair comes my cat, hair comes, my cat. Look at him, Look at him. I don't even think they even want a response because I don't know how to respond.

They're not looking for.

They're broadcasting he really, yeah, he really is something. I mean, I was meeting people this past weekend, the thing I went to. They're from all over the country and they don't even I mean, I've we literally go from hey, how are you where you're from? Let me tell you about my kid. You see him out there and right there the score, I tell you, man, I'm gonna tell you what.

Man, he's he got eighty goals. Okay, Peley himself saw in place, Caline, It's all I got down. Really, maybe not. I don't see them here. You know, hey, you was ever seen my kids? Basketball? Can't do it all.

I ain't do it off you both. And I mean, hey, hey, fifty points gang. I mean, I ain't no telling where he's gonna go. Is it where everyon wants to Indiana Luckie Duke, Like, let's see if he makes the junior high team again next year.

You know what I mean? Before we get told.

But even though and I'm not saying some of them are good, but it used to be even if you had a child who had some gifts, you didn't talk about them all the time to everybody, to people you don't even know.

If they really had gifts. You didn't have to. Yeah, yeah, but but body else talked about.

But it doesn't matter. There's the delusional, there's the person who's not delusion. Their kid really is good.

But it used to just be bad.

Form to just constantly be bragging on your kid about everything to everybody.

Yeah.

I mean, that's become such a normal part of the culture now you even find yourself not even shocked by it anymore.

Rick, you're talking face to face. Now, don't check Facebook. Oh that's another thing. Oh oh buddy, don't check that.

Yeah, because I've noticed on social media there's the version of you remember what we talk about in church. Church version of gossip is this, let me tell you some things we need to be praying about. You use that as a way to gossip.

Ye right, yeah, Hey, I just want to share with you and Christian, you need to be prayed, Hey, you.

Need to be prayed for. You need to be praying for laer Lean and Billy and I think you know why, you know what? Now, could I just pray for them? Let me tell you what's happening? And we need to pray about this. You ain't believe what Billy's doing. And uh and so the version now, the so now now the Facebook version of that is was so proud to be part of filling the blank this weekend, So proud

What I mean. Hey, let me tell you, give me humbled by it again.

He let me tell you I was humbled by my kid's eighty points and uh that and that I just told you and I've never met you before my life, and uh, I'm humbled by how good he is. I'm humbled by how beautiful a daughter is. I'm humbled by how smart my kids are. I'm humbled by all these things, these offers they got that. Your kid probably an' don't have a shot at I'm just humbled back.

My last line took me a minute, but I got it.

Y'all.

This used to be considered bad conduct. Now it's just normal. If you looked around the country up. So we're confused about the bathroom, we're gonna be confused about others.

I think what hit me is I'd seen it so much of people that you are. You know, it's like, okay, But when you I started realizing when you go away that total strangers will come up to it, You're like, okay, wow, this is that's even.

Weirder than people you know.

Do it?

You know what I mean, We'll be back more than Rick and Bubbash your next.

Getting Bubba Rick and Bubba.

Bubba.

It was over where the honeymoon was supposed to begin. After this wonderful holy matrimony, police were called when the bride who had just got married to your new husband pulled a nine millimeter from out under her wedding dress and began to point it and fire at her husband during this thermony. No, no, no, no, this is this is the honeymoon location. As a matter of fact, the police said when they arrive to handle the situation, responding

Yep.

They had been drinking and arguing outside the motel. Keep in mind, this is the honeymoon. But before all of you are think that the wedding may be over, I mean or that they they actually said now that she has already take and shown the world on Facebook that she has tattooed. Even though she's in jail right now and it has been released on fifteen thousand dollars bond. She went to tattoo so we all would know everything's

Now, don't forget You's hear these a lot of times, and you know it's somebody abusing somebody or somebody doing this.

Now.

They say when the police got there, the couple were both uncooperative with the officers and denied that anything was wrong at all.

Then those pesky witnesses showed up. Yeah, and dang, you did the couple's version of the event. And as Bubba said, probably the line in this that we find most unsurprising. The couple were both uncooperative with law enforcement. Bubba, we have a package, and.

We do from news Channel five out of Nashville. I just love reporter.

Yeah, just imagine the excitement of it all. You're just married, you and your new husband are ready to celebrate honeymoon night, and your books into the Rutherford County jail. That was the fate of twenty five year old newlywed Kate Elizabeth Pritchard Spine.

Officers let the husband know that the honeymoon would be over and that his new wife was going to jail.

Sergeant Kyle Evans with the Murphysboro Police Department says officers made the arrest after responding to a very unusual call at the Clarion Inn. They arrived to find Pritchard and her new husband arguing. This just a few hours after they were married.

Both were very uncooperative with authorities. It was a witness that actually pointed us in the right direction.

That witness told police the couple had been drinking and arguing outside the motel. Things escalated, and what Pritchard allegedly did next shocked everyone.

She pulled out of her wedding dress a nine milimeter pistol, pointed it at her new husband's head, and pulled the trigger.

The gun did not discharge, there was no bullet, but the witness told police Prichard then loaded around in the chamber and fired a shot in the air, causing everyone to run from the scene. Police arrived first questioning the newly weeds, who said nothing was wrong, but after talking to witnesses. Police did recover a shell casing and found what they believed to be Prichard's weapon.

After the incident occurs, she went to the bathroom and disposed of the weapon, hiding it in the bathroom.

Richard is charged with aggravated domestic assault. We do know tonight to that. The bride did post a fifteen thousand dollars bond. She's no longer in the jail. We were unable to reach her or her new husband. It's unclear whether or not their marriage will survive this ordeal.

Well, and that's the update we have. She has to put on Facebook her tattoo property of jay Rod. Yeah, and I'm sure from this point on everything will be smooth. So yeah, hey mom, Hey mom, tell me about your wedding, you and daddy And it was quite a story.

Kids gather around.

Remember, yes, she had no intentions of killing your father, only wanted him to message pants when I produced my nine millimeters from my beautiful wedding dress and fired it towards your your father.

Now, picture of the bride getting ready for the wedding. I got my veil, got my shoes, get him a pistol.

Something new jumping old something, borrowed something from Smith's and webbing.

Nothing screams. By the way, an bliss quite like the story in your wedding dress. The story and the.

News story and the written story both confirmed she did produce the weapon from her wedding dress. Yes, yeah, now keep it my guys. We've been married, sat in her girdle a few hours, been married a few hours. Yeah, she told a pistol through the wedding. Don't lose sight of that.

Clarion.

Every young lady dreams, dreams of that magical moment with her husband at the Clarion d right outside of Murphysboro.

Yeah.

Remember the honeymoon destination.

Night, midnight, midnight, you out pardoning? I heard Betty get up and out together. What's going on? Betty? Betty got out of the bay, I assume to go to the bathroom. I'm typing this way.

You talk, and you know, you can tell when somebody gets up out of the bed, but you don't necessarily wake up. Well, Betty comes around the bed and i'm you know, I'm still asleep with my eyes closed.

And I hear oh no, and I think what any whirl? And Betty has run into the wall. What she hit the wall? I mean hard? No, it gets better. So I opened my eyes over my seapout mask to see what's going on. And Betty is.

Hung in the corner and can't get out, and you know how like a little toy dog or something will get in the corner and she's she's knocking pictures around.

And all this and and I said Betty, Betty, and she wouldn't answer. She's asleep. Oh yeah, no, I pull it up.

At this point, I had to pull.

The catcher's mask up. And I said Betty, and she wouldn't answer me. But I could tell she was trying to find a bathroom door.

But she was hung in the.

Corner and I said, go left, go left, and she go and she kept banging the wall banging. I said, go left, go, and she finally got to the opening.

And went through. Oh my god.

And it was such an event. It woke me up and I couldn't go back to sleep. I fell, of course, I fall asleep ten minutes before the alarm goes off.

Oh that's rtually, I go, yeah, but I thought, Betty, yeahft, go left, go left, go left, many and I wanted to.

Cently he picked one and then theyre oh hey, and then between then and this when it's back live, he changed his mind and went with the other one.

But they've done that before. I think they have. They had one one time before he did. But I didn't expect Greg to give such an updates. Of course, just read Greg, you've watched that. Oh no, we couldn't stay up later. I would have watched it. Channel and Lisa love it.

I established you watched, but I watched it. I mean I read about it to pick. I need something big. No way you could make it. No, I was a sleep by eight.

It's just like Wilfare on that show.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Do you ever have your wife? Yeah, if you're trying to watch a movie.

If you ever try to watch a movie with your wife and both of you are wore out and you start trying to piece the movie together by the mouse that each of you saw?

How much of it did you see? Did you see when that person killed that person? What about the one fell off? The billy shy? Why you ask me who this is? I just woke up. Okay, I don't know because I slept right when we found out who he was.

So?

Why did those so and so do what he did? I don't know where Superman come from.

We watched Justice League the other night and I hadn't seen that, and then it was I guess, no people seen it.

You know, I'll give something away.

We go.

But what I'm saying is when it starts out, there's no Superman, and I'm like, you can't have Justice League that Superman and I fall asleep and I wake up and he's back, and I'm like, how do we get Superman back?

She goes, oh, you miss that? That was that was really a big deal. And I'm like, what's he? I thought we didn't have him. Oh no, we got him now, so why is he? Shirts?
