Full Show

All right, here we go. Good morning. This is Ed McMahon and now, ladies and gentlemen, Hee's ride r Okay, what day you got? Okay? Yeah, all right, he wakey, hands off those snakys. Rob Ryan showed Wildcard Wednesday. Today's also our Whataburger Appreciation Day. Now listen, we know we're going to talk about the the Whataburger app and how it's tracking where power is available and not available. We know a lot of water Burgers are down, but we're still going to kind of move forward.

And I would love for you guys if you know where some water Burgers are open today. They're going to be writing us a big check for our backpack drive and we're going to do something again with Waterburger. But because we already said today was the day, I want to keep it on there today and they understand. They know that they're just like most of us out there dealing with this power issue. So we got a lot to unpack today on the show. Keith has been on with us all week. He's going for win

number four, fresh out of bad Head to a Head Challenge Chili. We're gonna move those tickets around. An announcement that we made yesterday they said, we don't want to talk about that anymore, not this either show, the other one. So Chili, we can't give away those tickets on the fun Fat flashbacks, so we got to put something in there. Imagine Dragons still sold out. We have tickets for you at seven to twenty Cage the Elephant, tickets at eight twenty Creed still sold out. We have tickets for you

at nine to ten Olympis git tickets on Know the Show. And we got less than a ten percent chance of rain, partly cloudy today, high of ninety four. Tessa has Houston's headlines. Yeah, I sure do. And the headline is going to be continue to be the frustration that's mounting in the area because a lot of people still don't have power. At this time yesterday, we were talking about one point eight million customers still affected without power in

the dark. Center Point now says that number is down to one point three million people. That's still so many Houstonians that don't have energy. They're in the dark, and it's just so hot, so more dangerous heat today. Frustration mounting. There are more than a thousand traffic lights that are still out, So you've got that going on there. You have an energy arena being converted into a two hundred and fifty bedpost hospital recovery site so that discharged patients

don't go home, don't go back to their homes without power. They're just trying to alleviate some backup of patients at all the area Houston hospitals. I mean, we're lucky enough to be walking around. There are people that are sick, elderly kids, we know all that stuff. So they're saying, check on your neighbors if you do have power, and yeah, that's going to be the big headline today. If your power is out, you want answers. People are saying, hey, just open that Waterburger app. We're

talking about that today. Today's our Waterburger Day. They're helping us make a donation to the Rod Reinschold Cares Foundation to purchase backpacks for local kids who need it. But locals who were left with no idea which parts of the city that had power, We're like, hey, let's just use the Waterburger app to track power outages. Because there are so many restaurants in South Texas, people are able to kind of see which areas have power via their power outage

trackers. So the social media teap for Waterburger did notice this, and they're like, hey, that's a useful app we didn't think of. We hope you and everyone else are okay. Good old Waterburger can always count on them, So get in there and get some breakfast if you can. The first trailer for a Gladiator two is out and it is pretty good. There's actually a lot of trailers going down, so if you want to go to our blog page, the classic Clintie Swood spaghetti western A Fist Full of Dollars is

getting a remake. There's a new spongebog flick. I think the coolest thing on that blog page is Joe Rogan announcing his Netflix special on August third will be live. It's going to film in San Antonio, and we know Netflix has been making a push into more live events, so the Joe Rogan Experience the number one podcast on Spotify. I think it's a big deal that he's

here in Texas, so pretty cool. Let's talk about music news. Pearl Jam has had to cancel a handful of shows due to an unspecified illness. Well, it turns out Eddie Vedder was one of the people who had it and it was bad. During their return to the stage in Barcelona over the weekend, Eddie told the crowd it almost felt like a near death experience, that it was uncomfortable. He got scared. It felt like chess brown kindness. You can go read his full kind of rant on stage. Jer is

a video. It's not really a rant. He's just kind of saying, hey, life's precious, man. Those are Houston headlines. There we go. The Astros gotta win. Last night they beat the Marlins fod at three. Alex Bregman homered and had three RBI on the night. They're gonna play the Marlins again tonight. Frambervalvedes will be in the mount for Destros have been

going up against Miami's Brian poeing first pitches at seven to ten. You can listen to that game on our sister station, Sports Talk seven ninety and other news. The Astros are also offering five dollars tickets before taxes and fees for the final two games of their series against the Marlins, which includes tonight's game. You can get the viewing deck seats, a soda, a hot dog, and popcorn for twenty two dollars as well before taxes and fees. So

they're trying to help out these post barrel prices right now. And the acs working at minute made, so yeah, maybe maybe you have twenty two dollars you're hungry and there, Yeah, you can go cool down, watch some baseball. The Marlins sucks, so you can watch them beat down in the Marlins. You can get those tickets at astros dot com slash tickets. I've already seen a lot of Astros fans posting like I lost my fridge in Harvey, I lost my microwave this year. Run it back boys, like they're

gonna win for the city again. That's's going on in sports. All right, here we go, guys, first phone call, let me open up these full lines. At least the phones are working. We're gonna have to check you with Chile because I don't know he's thinking today. Links and guests and outlook is not working here and this place is a mess today. But the phones are working. So if you want the first phone call, come get it seven one three, two, two, five nine four five.

I don't know what ChIL He's got going on. Chilie's got Chill is having a hell of a start to his morning. A lot of things, a lot of disruptions here at iHeart Houston, a lot of server problems with iHeart in general. We are having time right now, so uh, we'll check you with

See the all that information and a new Seather song coming today, a lot of seither. So I'm excited about that. Seether at eight twenty you go to well, I don't know if you can go to any blog pages today. It looks like the name of the song is Judas Mind.

I haven't even heard the clip. They did put a clip on their Instagram eight twenty. We're going to hear the song with you, guys. We're going to take the phone calls and man, it's always a good time when Seether is back into the discussion. Today is water Burger Appreciation Day. Okay, the water Burger app. Everyone knows now that that's where people are tracking where outages are out and the water Burger app has just become like the most

popular app out there. And there are a bunch of water Burgers open, but there are probably more closed than open. But as power is slowly becoming restored, we are still going to move forward with water Burger Day. I'm going to need you, guys to get out to any area local water burgers that are open, and I need you to get out there and just make

a purchase. That's it. All you do is make a purchase, get yourself some breakfast, get yourself some coffee or something, and then send us a picture with your water burger because we want to post that nice working Oh absolutely, because they're dealing with stuff through it. Chances are somebody that's working at a water Burger their power is out. Have you seen any drive through though, because every drive through is like a mile long line eight into it.

I will talk because I did do some extensive driving yesterday and people are acting a fool at four at stop lights that are out you guys, it's real simple. Okay, it's real simple. When somebody gets to the light before you, they get to go for you. It's really simple. It should be simple. But I saw there's people that just don't get it. So we're gonna talk about that today. It's gonna be a real, real busy morning, that's for sure. It's now time for the first phone call

But let's get some new facts to you. It's the fuck back to the day. We make you look smart, Bunny here, buddy, sits the fuck that to the day. Hello, Hell, brother Rod couldn't find my fun facts? Hell just found them for me. Good job. How where were they? They were under your

work pile over there, your commercials. Well, Sammy, I was talking to Sammy off air and I was bitching about charpie markers don't last as long, and he's Sammy said, how many pieces of paper are in front of you right now? Rod? And I said all of them? Like all of the papers? Millions of papers. Yeah, I mean a forest okay, a redwood from mere woods worth of papers in front of me right now.

But I found my facts. Here we go for you today. Almost all Arctic predators, from wolves to eagles, rely on this as a food source. Who's not safe in the Arctic. Everybody wants squirrels. Everybody wants the squirrels. Baby. Coca Cola was offered the chance to buy Pepsi three separate times between nineteen twenty two and nineteen thirty three. They turned it down

each time. That is fo you could have bought your number one competitor, YA gobbled them up, and that then you would have been just dealing with Dr Pepper. Yeah right, we wouldn't have to deal with pepsi. Did we say Doctor Pepper's now in the top five, top three, top three? Oh, it's actually surpassing pepsi. Is it number two now? Yeah? Okay, everywhere up North Coke below the Mason Dixon line, not even a question. It's the heavyweight champion. We've talked about post it notes before.

They were invented by accident a scientist over at three m who was actually trying to create a really really strong adhesive. Well he failed. He failed. He did not create a really really strong adhesive. He created the kind of adhesive that you could use a couple of times. So even the yellow color was by accident. The lab next door only had a few yellow scrap papers around for them to practice on. So ah, that's neat. The guy invented crappy gloom and turned it into post it notes. Way to turn

this baby around? As my friend Al says, it's the fuck that to the day. We make you look smart in front of your bodies. It's the fuck that to the day. Maybe there's maybe there's hope for who's sipping that soup game? Could we turn that around to something else? The world's worst radio game of all times? Kind of like the crappiest glue ever invented, but they repurposed it. Maybe we put it up who's sipping that superreals dumbest game ever. Maybe there's a maybe there's an afterlife. All right,

talk about these tickets here, Oh these are good ones. I've got a pair of tickets to see Creed on their Summer of ninety nine too, or three doors down a finger eleven on this bill, and the tickets are sold out, so you can only win. I'm right here in ninety four five of bus YEP. It's your fun. It is illegal to do this in Denmark now people still do it all the time, but technically it's illegal. What did we talk about specifically? Seven one three two one two five nine

five. You gotta get this one really right? Though you got it's not I don't think it's that hard. But it's for Creed. Sold out tickets, so Chile's waiting for you. Seven one three two one two five nine four five. It's now time for rock out with your stock out with captain cash. All right, there's our money guy. How'd you do yesterday?

Well, it was a mixed day on Wall Street. The Dow was up for a down thirty two points to thirty nine thousand and two ninety one, the Nasdaq up twenty five to eighteen thy four to twenty nine benks Mark ten year treasury that's trading at a four point twenty seven percent, and oil stands at eighty one dollars thirty cents a barrel.

As reported by Young

Finance, Bye the Buzz, Welcome back Rod Ryan's show Wildcard. Wednesday, it is water Burger Appreciation Day. I want to talk more about that. Has anybody been able to get to a Waterburger this morning? If you can, there are a handful of them open. You know, we had this day set obviously before the storm disrupted our lives, so I wanted to kind of keep it going today, but I wanted to thank water Burger just because

I know they got a big check coming to us. So, man, if you can make it out to a water Burger, that would be awesome. And I'd love to have that backed up with some photos or something. Right, let's chick in, let's check in with the Oh it's bo Moni, Good morning, bo I, wonder Rot. Are you great man? Good to have you on a fun fact flashback. Today we talked about something that was illegal to get done to yourself. A lot of clues there in

Denmark people still do it, but it's technically illegal. What are we talking about getting a tattoo on your hand, face, or net. Wow, you know it all. Congratulations. Yeah, that's exactly how I read it yesterday, except backwards. It is illegal to get a face, neck, or hand tattoo in Denmark. Hi, dude, you just won the fun fact flashback and lucky day for you. Chilly just put some awesome tickets in

there. What does he got? He really did? Chili decided to put a pair of the sold out Creed tickets with three doors down and finger eleven up for grabs and you grabbed them, dude, for grabs. Great John today on Thank y'all so much. Okay, my brother, thank you. Stay safe out there, stay cool. We got Houston's headlines coming up after this linkin eighty two. All the small things. It must be the buzz.

Let's go ninety four to five the buzz. Good morning, rod Ryan's show on this water Burger Wednesday. Yeah, we're asking you to get to one of the water Burgers. There's a handful of them that are open and I would love for you to visit them this morning at some point. And it just as a way of saying thank you, It really is. It's just a way of saying thank you. You don't have to order anything specific, there's no secret handshake. If you want to thank them, that would

be great. Be nice to them because you know they got to work and I'm sure they've got other things that they need to be dealing with. But that Waterburger app which is tracking which ones are open, there are a bunch of them that you can get to this morning, So we would love for you to stop by. Do that, send us a picture. We'll start posting some of that stuff. You can be world famous on our websites and socials. This morning with low chances of rain, which is great, partly

cloudy today, mid nineties. It's going to feel like over one hundred degrees today. That blows for some of you that are still dealing with no power. And I guess that's probably some of the things that you're going to talk about Tessa Houston's headlines. Yeah, I'm going to talk about that. I'm also going to talk about politicians arguing, which when you are dealing with the

heat and frustration, this is the last thing you want to hear. But President Joe Biden claims Texas would have received bettereral disaster declaration for Hurricane Beryl sooner if the state leaders here hadn't drag their feet in asking for it. So you have Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, he's in charge, while Governor Abbot is an as on an economic trip. A White House spokesperson claims federal officials tried

several times to contact Abbott and Patrick before reaching Patrick on Tuesday. Then you have Patrick firing back saying, look, that never happened, and that state officials have to assess their needs before requesting this disaster declaration. So a little bit of back and forth there not cool. Something else not cool. It's just frustration around center point and saying, hey, when are we gonna have our power back? On yesterday we were at one point eight and this morning

we're about one point three on the outage map. That's still so many people without power. I'm going to get the latest summer just to make sure it's right. Yeah, one point three million customers still affected. So there words yesterday. If you add that up, it's another They want to get another seven hundred thousand people with power today. Yesterday's number they said a million by today a million back, right, So you know that's what we're hoping for.

And so a lot of people without it. And then just on the roads, there are more than a thousand traffic lights that are still out and people are, I guess, really unclear about how to treat a stop light like a four way stop, or who gets there first, or people getting there late, not timing it out, not going with the flow. I think out of all the ones I stopped at yesterday, there were maybe two where people had a little flow going. All the other ones were just like

a free for all. You know, people were just going thinking. You know, it's frustrating, being selfish. It's frustrating because you think it's just kind of a common sense thing. And that's just me thinking that most people have common sense. Most people don't, and most people are dumb. If you now, I understand mistakes happen. You know you're driving, it's like, oh damn, you didn't see the light because some of them aren't even

blinking. But it's a real simple thing. Man, if that person on anywhere around you showed up before you, you don't go until after them. That's easy. That's really easy. Stop. Here's the problem. Some of the intersections that I was involved in yesterday also were intersections that have gassed and gas stations were backed up yesterday horribly, so I did more driving than I wanted to yesterday. It's a mess out there. Just don't act a fool. That's it. Just don't act a fool. Don't be an idiot.

I went and got some Costco gas on the line was pretty long, but I mean what every line is long right now. Whatever's open, there's going to be a long line. So just pack your patients and check on your neighbors. Okay, let's talk about some sillier stuff. Taco Bell is opening a retirement community for young people. I'm serious. They're doing it next month near San Diego. It's called the Cantenas. Now it's just a gimmick, so it's only going to be open for this one weekend. But they're trying

to attract more gen Z customers. And they say leaning into Grandma Core is going to do that because lots of young people think old people's stuff is cool. Now they've got day passes for fifty bucks, or for one hundred and fifty bucks, you can get lodging for two nights and an elevated Taco Bell dining experience. Are they playing batchy ball? There are various old people activities. There's like meeting certain goals, croquet, golf, painting classes, pick

a ball, a wide variety of old school games. Okay, awesome, Yeah, we have a blog page for this if you're into that sort of thing. Yeah, Chile, he's getting blog pages up back again. Old people culture is not your costume. Yeah, how dare you steal their culture? Old people appropriation? Yeah, that's old appropriation, old appropriation. Sure. At this point, maybe we should be voting a cartoon character and for president. But people at rancor dot com says they've got an ongoing poll of

cartoon characters people would most likely vote for for president. I never thought i'd see the day are there's some people that are taking this serious. Number one's number one. Yes, it's a superhero, I said, Scooby Doo. No, not on the top seven Batman Batman number one, Yeah, Batman number one, he's got the money. Lisa Simpson number two, Superman number three. You know, it's fun to play when you say these names.

Would they be a Republican or a Democrats? The Republican and everybody knows it, like I'm on, Lisa would be Lisa Simpson would be a Democrat, big time superman. Maybe independent. Scooby would be independent. Scooby is not on the list. It would be independent. I know that now. He'd be a Democrat. He'd be all about like legalizing weed. No, he's a third party. He doesn't want lying anybody, Spider Man. I think Democrat Velma from Scooby Doo Democrat, Papa Simmer, Republican, Optimus Prime,

Republican. Done. Okay, that was a government without for sure. The only slam dunk is Velma definitely a Democrat. Yeah. Two huge acts are teaming up this fall. We talked about it yesterday. See Either and Skill. It are hitting the road September seventeenth and Nshville, North Carolina. They're going to stop in Houston October fifth at White Oak Music Hall. So we already give away those tickets, but we'll give him away all week and we'll

be listening to you see there today. Is this it just a teaser? I don't want to hear anymore. I don't want to hear it. Twenty okay, twenty, I want to listen together. All right, let's go sports. Yeah, Astros got to win last night to beat the Marlins four to three. Alex Bregman homert and had three RBI on the night. They're gonna play the Marlins again tonight. Fra Amber Valdes will be on the mount for the Stros, going up against Miami's Brian hoeing first pitches at seven to

ten. You can listen to that game on our sister station, Sports Talk seven ninety. Astros are also offering five dollars tickets before taxes and fees for the final two games of their NS, which includes tonight's game. You can also get viewing deck seat to soda, a hot dog and popcorn love just twenty two dollars before those taxes and fees hit again. You can get those

tickets at astros dot com slash tickets. If you're looking for a way to beat the heat right now and maybe your power is not back, can get some food, baseball and air conditioning. Yeah for just take twenty two dollars. That's what's going on in sports. The rod Ryan Morning Show six to ten AM, The Buzz ninety four to five, Good Morning rod Ryan Show, Lincoln Park in the end, Wildcard Wednesday, More importantly, Waterburger Wednesday.

Yeah, I'm opening up the Waterburger app right now. Help. You're off to a great start to your day. Low chances of rain, partly cloudy, high of ninety four as cleanup continues here, and many of you still dealing with wicked power out of just I guess we should probably keep that number up all day because we're going to keep referring to that. Yesterday, the big story was Centerpoint said they wanted to get one million people back.

Okay, so since they made that statement, it sounds like about another three hundred thousand, So I'm keeping them on the hook for another seven hundred thousand people today. There was really no time. We talked this morning with Sammy Baker Davis Junior, who's back on the fresh out of bed head to head. He was just sitting there waiting for the green light to get out there and start restoring power. So he is somebody that works on what we need

right now, power back up and running. So the number if they you know, I know these are estimates and everything, but when you're dealing with no power, you're hoping that they hit that goal of one million people back today, Well you're hoping we're accountable for the things they're saying and you know, Center Point, they are like we the fact that the Waterburger outage map was being used is funny, it's very Texan, but the fact that we

can't go straight to the source of Center Point is also a very serious thing. So the accountability from Center Point, you know, they we know we pay them money. We know they're the ones that people have accused them of having a monopoly in this area, Like dude, come on, come with it, fix it, make it good. Yes, that's true. So that's what you know, we're putting them. They're on the hook today, and of course everyone's gonna look at what's going on. You know, do

they need more people? Do they need that stuff needs to be sorted out afterwards? Just get power restored? Right, Okay, even listen, I'm not somebody that goes to church of Dan Patrick, but he's kind of filling in for our governor right now. And he said, listen, there's going to be a time and a place to kind of, you know, take a look at Hey, did they know did they did their people know that this I was coming here to Houston? Because it did make a turn?

Was Centerpoint prepared and ready to go? So a lot of stuff to sort out after we get everybody up and running again. There's too many people here to not have it in order. There's too many families, there's too many people affected. It's a major city. We can't be third world in it here. It's not fair. It's not fair to our people, Like, it's not fair to the citizens of Houston. And the experts predict one of the most active storm seasons in decades. Hey, it seems like they got

that one right, because it's been pretty freaking active around here. Okay, Yeah, there's been two major major storms already. So twenty three named storms, eleven hurricanes, five of which could be catastrophic. Those are the predictions. So you know, I throw those out when I'm doing my Generaic generator commercial. But that's just our lives of what's what's predicted to be happening around

here. So, so there were some girls out of town. I went and I ran into a TJ Max to look for something, and there were some girls that are staying here and they were kind of asking the locals. They're like, so this is a category one storm, like and there are bigger storms than this, and like the cashier was trying to try to explain to them, like, yeah, Category one is kind of like the lowest

level. And she's like, man, and it knocked out all this power, and it's it's almost embarrassing, Like it's not almost embarrassing, Like it is embarrassing. Why did the Cat one knock out so much power? If this is the beginning of the season, like and it's gonna be an even crazier season like Cat one, We've got it. This seems like category five problems. But they always say that on the news too, they say that we get caught up in one, two, three, and four. One

is bad. One is bad directly hit by any storm. Of course, there's not a lot of things that are like doing great in seventy five eighty mile an hour winds. That's one one. I know anything else? I agree with the traffic lights out everywhere. I'm just I'm gonna say it. I'll say it all morning long. You guys have just not been doing a great job. I don't think it's Rod Ryan show listeners. I'd love to

say that. I'd love to say that it's Ruling Ryan people. I'd love to say that it's Dean and Rodge listeners that are just blowing through these traffic lights. But I think a couple of you guys might be doing it as well. And I'm enough's enough, just because I've been doing some driving. And man, people just don't get that whole concept of like, hey, I wasn't here first. I know you got places to be. I had

places to be yesterday, and you just got to wait it out. You gotta look around, and you got to say if you didn't get there first and someone else is there waiting, it's their turn before you. I just think that's the simplest concept. And people are just so caught up in their

selves, in their own little bubble that they're just blasting through this. You saw an accident yesterday, Alex. Yeah, I was trying to go home to check and see if I had power, and somebody just blasted, like, didn't stop at all, just blasted right through it and t bun somebody else. It looks like it ruined both cars. It's like he was not in the in the raw and justast to do that. There's already problems right now, let's not tie let's not compound them with a silly traffic accident that

didn't need to happen. Yeah, I get it. It's difficult because we're just used to being told what to do. We're trained monkeys. We are told that when it's red, we stop, when it's yellow, we floor it, and when it's green, we go. Okay. We've done that our whole lives. And then when you don't see a light at all, you just kind of like, what do I do? I don't know what to do? You stop? Yeah, okay, you stop. At least some of them are blinking red, which is an indicator to okay, you

know, that's a stop and go situation. But when you see nothing on that traffic light still, that's where people are blowing through it and you gotta stop. So I'm not gonna harp on you all morning long. I feel like I should, but we're gonna move on and we're gonna do some other things here. Okay. So so I'm up against the break. We do have that new Seather coming. That was the first even note I heard of that new sea the So we have it ready to go. We're going to

play it for you at eight twenty. We already blew out the seed. Their tickets today, they're going on sale Friday. If you didn't hear about that show. It's on the music blog page. I am going to give you sold out again, more sold out tickets. The only way to go see the Imagine Dragons is by listening to the rod Ryan Show. We're going to have those for you on the flip of this brake. Stay there, ninety four or five the buzz Welcome back rod Ryan's Show. Wildcard Wednesday.

Yes, water Burger Wednesday. Yes. Are there a ton of water Burgers that are closed? Yes? Are there a bunch now more than yesterday too. I got the water Burger app pulled up right now, and I wouldn't call it half, but I would call it a third of water Burgers, according to their app, are open. And according to most of you, this app is pretty reliable. People are using it now to track where power is just out in the city of ours. The Waterburger app is like one

of the most trusted apps right now. I see a bunch on iten that are open. If you can stop, buy a Whataburger today, pick something up as a way of saying thank you. You don't have to do anything special, get in, get out. I'm understanding that most places just to drive through is open. Jerry just said good morning. Drive through only at this location Highway six, just south of Little York. Looked it up on the tracker. Yep, that one's open. So get in there, excuse

me, order something, snap a photo. It's a way of saying thank you because we are getting a big fat check from them at some point when you know everybody's dealing with clean up and everything else. Today, party claudy. Low chances of rain. Hot today, it's gonna feel like over one hundred degrees. So let's get that. Let's get another seven hundred thousand people powered up today. What's trending? Yeah, I'm just gonna run with that.

The Waterberger Appreciation Day going on right now. We have Alan Brindley. He just showed us he brought in breakfast for everyone. Like, let's not not even we did. I didn't even mention the hero, the absolute hero you would be if you walked into any workplace with some hot food right now. People don't have like hot food. It's like, right now, look at this. Make sure if someone walked into this facility with that, I'd be like, bro, what do you want me to name my kids after

you? Whatever? Yeah? I was either like so yeah, a little uh checks mixed or something like that. So, yeah, appreciation day for water Burger. If you can find one that's open, stop in. Thank them for us and they're they're helping out big time. But be nice. Nurse D said her son works at a Waterburger. He came home yesterday he was exhausted. She says. He said a lot of customers were rude and upset because of the weight. People need to realize these employees are also going

through the same storm no power issues as you are. So have a little respect and patience as we all need it. I mean, man, anybody that's out there and they're working and getting things done. You know, there's a lot of people that said, Okay, I I got no power, I'm not working this week. Some people can't take the week off. They can't and they got to go in and work. They don't want to deal with your crap. So be nice to people that are working at least come

on. That's basic stuff. I mean, I think that ties into the next thing because we've been talking about Center Point. I got a ton of emails when I was just tunking on Center Point just a little while ago. But the people that are in the uniform. The ones that are out before the sunrise and they're working until you know, midnight. Those are They're not the ones that are lacking the effort, you know what I mean, They're not the ones that were pissed off at anyway. Like Ron said, anyone

working and doing that is awesome. So that's another trend I wanted to mention. Michelle says line workers and tree removal services. She can see them. They're staging at the Katie stadiums this morning. Parking lots are full of workers that are lined up. They're ready to be turned loose, fingers crossed for all those without power today. Thank you, Michelle. I appreciate that update. And I've seen those pictures too of just the trucks ready to ready to

open up. So that's like the local serious stuff. And then did you you guys know who Olivia Dunn is. She's that influencer. She does LSU gymnastics. She's she's so libby is I hate pronounce her name. She's all over the place. But she announced yesterday that she's going to take her fifth and final year with LSU. She's going to stay on the gymnastics scene.

People were very excited for her. Her boyfriend is Paul Schemes of the Pirates, and she had to surprise him when he was an All star with champagne and pizza. Hums. What a good girl is just like us, She's just like so un billionaire. I feel like her because I also went to college on the half decade plan.

Good morning, rod Ryan Show, Nirvana lit them we got We've got a bunch of Waterburgers that are open. What a Burger Appreciation day today. Jerry McConaughy, love that guy. Man. He was out there with rod Ryan showed shirt. He's out there getting his water burger. Love it just as a way of saying thank you, because we know they're gonna write us

a big check. Though normally on this day, what Burger would stop by, Jennifer would come by with her big check and her big cooler of hot delicious honey butter, Yeah, chicken biscuits, with her recommendation to put that honey butter on top of ice cream. Yeah, vanilla ice cream, she said, put it on bluebell ice cream. I've never done it. I wouldn't be able to look at myself. Fat boy doesn't need that. I need that breakfast burger. Well, normally she would come in, but of

course she's dealing with everything else that everyone else is dealing with. But there are a bunch of but it looks like to me, just as a glance looking at that waterburger app about a third of whataburgers are open out there. Man, if you can stop by like our friend Jerry did, that would be great. Last time I saw Jerry, I was hanging out with him at Ditch Day. Comes out to all our stuff. Man, that dude's awesome. Partly Claudie's guys. Today, nothing over a ten percent chance of

rain hype of around ninety four. We are giving away a ticket right now. Good morning morning. Well, Hello, who's this this? Ishara your caller number ten? Sharat believe it. I'm so excited the only way that someone can get in to see the Imagine Dragons right now and not pay some wicked fee by some scalper a hole out there is by listening to us. It sounds like you're listening to us. You're the tenth caller. Sold out Imagine Dragons tickets are yours? Oh that's awesome. Thank you, Thank you

for listening. I appreciate it. These are tough times right now. What's going on in your life? What part of town do you live in? I live in Montgomery. I'm on my way to Tomball for work right now. Okay, you dealing with power issues up there? No, we did get power back, thankfully. Nice for you. I am happy for you, man. That's great news. And I work has power, so everything is good. You got a work share, Yes, what do you do? I worked for a welding company. I worked the front office. Okay,

well, awesome, man. I'm glad things are going well in your life, and they just got a lot better with those sold out tickets. Thank you for listening. Be safe on the roads. Okay, all right, thank you so much. Thank you. You're awesome. You're awesome. I don't know that I want to get into this today. Yeah, I do well because It was talked about on the show not that long ago, and I think I wound up on our poll question being in the minority,

and it was one of those things that kind of upset me. I'd like to think that I've got I'm like minded with a lot of the people that listen to the show, and I feel like this is one of the pole questions where I was not in the majority. Give me fog men. We all agree that gas stations are crazy right now? Did you see it firsthand? Oh? I was in a long line for Costco gas yesterday. Okay, let me read the email and then we can. Got to revisit something

that we talked about on this show. Hey, team, good morning. Now more than ever this needs to be said. Pump your gas and move your car. Do not pump your gas then go inside. I reach Okay, Chad says, I'm personally guilty of doing this during normal times when gas stations aren't so busy, no one's waiting. But right now that's not the time. This is a pump and move situation, is it? Wow?

I didn't know I went into Costco yesterday when I put in my gas tank and did a little Costco shopping and then came back twenty four to seven, three sixty five and that extra day during a leap year. I never go inside. I pump my gas and I moved my flip and car. Okay, this is what we did a poll question. Oh is it okay to leave your car pump and go in? I was being specific BUCkies. I

think too, where they have a million pumps, I get it. Can you pump your gas and then go into the store and do some bucky shopping? Hello? Now, I don't think it's acceptable at any time, but right now, do we all agree that now is not the time to do that? I would hope so, scumbag if you do that, that's a scumbag move. Man, that's a scumbag move, especially right now. There's no way anyone's doing that right now. They're key. Their car would be

keyed. I don't know their car would be key if they did that right now. There are people that when it's raining or driving around with no lights on. So I sometimes these simple things need to be said out loud. I do this all year round. I think it's an a hole move to leave your car and just go into the store at the pump I know there's there's so many other places. Just pull around, park somewhere else, then go in. It's courteous, it's polite. Just do it. It's showing

respect for other people. But now is the Samethood. You're almost there. The gas pumps are ridiculous. A martyr. You are at that gas station. Yesterday though, I went and I waited probably forty five minutes in line at a Kroger gas station, and it wasn't It's not equivalent to the people doing the like leaving their car. But when you think somebody's done pumping gas, all right, it's my turn, and then they pull out like two gas cans to fill up, You're like, I get it, you gotta

fill the generator. But damn it, I thought it was my turn. And then people like there was a line going in and so like the next car available, like that's your car, whichever, laying open, But nobody was really following that. And this guy got out of his car and I couldn't hear what he said. He was telling everybody. He's like, no, no, no line starts here, you go around here. And people were listening to this guy. Yeah, like I should have been in charge.

He was passionate, had strong like leadership, main character, data energy. Yeah, but that was the worst. Just when you think like they're going back to their car to get in and then they get the gas cans out, you're paying it. It's a I'll wait for that, Chad. I appreciate the email. I appreciate bringing it up. One thank you. But when we did this poll question, I was in the minority. People feel that it's okay to go into the store when you're pumping gas. I

don't think that's the right way to do it. But right now we all said that it's not the right time to do it. Yeah, no or yes, right during this time, which is a time of crisis. I think it's a I think we're all the poll questions we do. Like you gotta just use a little bit of judgment on every situation. Not every situation is exactly the same as the other. I would say, in a hurricane situation, yeah, get your gas and get the hell out. Okay,

no going into the store, get out of there. Thank you, Chad, appreciate you. I advisory this is a heat advisory. Wow. Men are advised to drink water. Women should wear tiny clothes. How hot is that Rod Ryan? Don't all right? Ninety four to five The Buzz, Good morning, rod Ryan Show, Foo Fighters in under you. Okay, what a Burger appreciation Day. I know some of you are having a hard time getting to water Burgers, but there are a bunch there are a handful

open, man, and I would appreciate you stopping by today. Maybe some of you are making plans to go there for lunch. This goes on all day, man, and I would like you, guys, when you do attend and visit a water Burger today, snap a photograph for us. We'd love to see you out there with your water burger. I know somebody like to take a picture of the receipt. We want to see you. I mean, you know how it works around here. I want to see you, guys, those of you that listen to the show, maybe your whole

crew eating some water Burger today. Nothing over a temper cent chance of rain, partly cloudy hype ninety four. We've talked a lot about gas. I'm gonna read one more email and then we're gonna have to move on because these things are just upsetting to me. Jonathan says, rod Not only don't go shopping while you are pumping your gas. Pump your gas and go. But what about people that stop at the first pump instead of pulling all the way

to the next one. I've had to pull out and go all the way around because the person in front of me did not pull up forward to an open pump. That is frust if that's still sometimes people have different No, the timing is different. But I get it. If you have not put your money in, you have not done started your transaction, yet that person pulls out in front of you, hop back in and just go forward one. Okay, Like just people don't have awareness. How could you have been

the one sperm that got through on that egg? If you are just seeing that you are like you were the fastest sperm that penetrated the egg. You're the one that fertilized. You made it. You don't see you. You don't see that pump in front of you open and you're gonna stop at this one. I'm with you, Jonathan, these are just things that you don't Okay. I heard that this morning. Listen. I get it, and I want you to know well that I get you thinking, how like you

just don't see it? The other way around. Like you, you will always just do your gas, and you're aware and you're thinking of other people, you know. But like me, I'm like, no, I'm not gonna give someone two opportunities to kidnap me. I'm gonna pull in, I'm gonna put my I'm gonna put in the thing for gas. I'm gonna go in. I'm gonna grab what I need. I'm gonna go. I'm not gonna drive around looking for another spot. I'm not gonna make it two things.

I'm a girl. I'm not gonna be at a gas station. I don't care whether it's BUCkies or anywhere else. I'm getting my stuff. I'm not parking twice. I'm leaving. You know what I mean. And that to me is being as quick inefficient as I can be in this world. So I thank you for your service at the gas station, for being so considerates. But it doesn't work that way, like for everyone you know, doesn't work for everyone. No, not for women, Not for women at

a gas station. No, okay, anything else. No, I just like I see it, I get it. I get it both ways, all right, Pull up to that pump in front of your car, always open. Now that you were all, wait, we can agree on that. Yeah. Wait, that's what I mean. That's what I did at Costco. You kind of have to wait. If you see someone two people kind of wrapping it up, it's like, I'm not just gonna okay, I'm boom, this one's open. Let me wait a little bit. This

guy's wrapping up. He's put it wallet up. Okay, let's go. Now boom too. Look at us two people getting gas. We can agree on that one. Rock Houston's Alternatives and The Rod Ryan Morning Show US ninety four The Buzz Welcome back rod Ryan's Show on this wildcard Wednesday, Whataburger Appreciation Day. Yeah, we're having some computer issues here on our end. I mean, there's just problems everywhere getting some pictures in and I can't open up

any attachments outlook has been ravaging this building all morning long. I appreciate all the emails that are coming in. Eventually I will get to all of them, all right, So that was one of the things that I was asking my One of my big asks today was to get out to Whataburger and send us a photo of you out there at Waterburger. So still do that, I'll be able to get at this stuff. Eventually, I'll try getting it through my phone or something like that, but I still want you to stop

by water Burger. I got the app up right now. It looks to me just eyebowling it. About a third of water Burgers are open. But that tracking map, we're going to talk about it. People are using that to track where power, what neighborhoods don't have power. It seems to be like the most reliable app out there. Ten percent chance of rain, Matt, I don't even think that partly cloudy, but hot man, true temperatures highs of around ninety four ninety five is going to feel like overalle hundred today.

So best of block to you as we are just all waiting for power to be restored. Tessa has more in Houston's headlines. I mean, Hustonians know that we're in this together. And if you want to take a timeline of Monday, that's when hurricane barrels slashed through southeast Texas or early Monday morning. I wasn't even able to get a flight home. The guys were here holding it down, and at that point, I believe there were over two

million people after the show. It was estimated up to two million people or more didn't have power. Then we fast forward to today that number has dwindled. Well, I wouldn't say dwindled. More than one point three million households are still in the dark. Okay, So Centerpoint Energy, that's Houston's primary power provider, said customers should expect this to be a multi day process to get electricity restored. They do have their workers fanned out across the region.

We talk to alignment. It's been multiple days. It has been multiple days, that's right, And you know, and now the city has just been plagued with heat. Right, it's been very hot, and people are frustrated, and that frustration is mounting. There are more than a thousand traffic lights that are still out, so kind of the roads are a little bit chaotic.

You have energy arena that had to be converted into a two hundred and fifty bed post hospital recovery site so that people they discharge from the hospital don't have to go to their homes that don't have power, where they could get even more sick. And yeah, they're trying to alleviate some of the backup of the patients from the Houston Hospital. So we had talked about energy. Maybe some of their their roofing had been compromised. So it's a it's a

tough situation here. We are at the B the B part of the alphabet when it comes to the hurricane season, and it might be a long one for us. Okay. So that's that's the big story. And as Rod mentioned, if your power is out and you want some answers, all you have to do is open that dang Waterburger app. Today's Waterburger Day and they're

helping us make a donation to the Rod Ryan Show Cares Foundation. But yesterday their social media was going crazy because they had were using their app to show people what parts of town had power and which didn't because Centerpoint Energy wasn't doing that. So it was a very text in Houston specific thing that was happening. There are people using the app to get the power outage Tracker and Waterburger just saving the day again for people, keeping them in the know, keep

them in the know. I got it open. I got it open live right now. So it's tracking like so we're in the Galleria, so it's showing me the area around the galleria. But I mean it's you can this thing will pick up water Burgers all the way up to umbole So and Spring. I see on here too. Just at a quick eyeball glance, I can count, it looks like about forty our open. Nice, it looks like about forty our open. Now we know that there's way more than that.

It looks to me about a third of the water Burger stores are available to you today. So I would like you to get out there as a way of saying thank you, because today was the day that they were scheduled, and you know they deserve better than that for sure. So we're gonna do something more with Waterburger. They're always on board though. You know they're gonna write They're gonna write us a big check to the rod Ryan Show Cares

Foundation. So if you can visit a water Burger today, and I know it's just maybe the one in your neighborhoods not open, so I know it's not as convenient as it normally is. The first trailer for a Gladiator two is out. I took a look at that early this morning. It looks pretty epic. You have Denzel Washington in that one pedro pescal. There's also a bunch of trailers. So we put like an entertainment blog page on The Rod Ryan Show, a blog page, links and guests dot com. You

can go check out at Clint Eastwood. Spaghetti Western getting a remake. You can look at a SpongeBob. There's time. It's on Apple TV. Joe Rogan is set to have a live comedy special on Netflix two and yeah, there's a full story on that as well. I believe he's going to record that one in San Antonio. Okay, we've been talking about Pearl Jam because they had to cancel a handful of shows and they were canceling them due to

an unspecified illness. Those were the reasons. Well now we know. It turns out Eddie Vedder was one of the people who had that unspecified illness and it was bad. They were turned to the stage in Barcelona, Spain over the weekend and Eddie was basically just talking to the crowd being like this was a near death experience for me. It felt like he couldn't breathe. It

felt like he couldn't make it through the night, he says you. It made him realize how precious life is and how lucky he is to be living on a planet where you can go around and all right, ninety four or five buzz that's Pearl Jam and even flow half flight part of the show paper. Good to hear Pearl Jam, Good to hear that Eddie Vetterer is doing better. Let me tell you, when you hear that Eddie Vedder even has

this nifles, you gotta be worried, right okay? Eddie Vedder on the music blog page said his recent illness felt like some sort of a near death experience. What I like to call the Flannel four Soundgarden, Alison Chains, Nirvana and Pearl Jam. What do you see? What that flannel four? You see three missing lead singers. Even if you want to go flannel five and you want to include Stone Tubble Pilots not from Seattle area, but still if you want to go flannel five and include STP, still down to lead

singer. Protect Eddie Vedder at all costs. He was talking at a show in Barcelona on Saturday, and he was talking to the crowd. He said, it almost felt like a near death experience. It's like, okay, that's not good. That's not good. He said. Now I've got the clip up there. It's kind of you know, it's Eddievedder. He's he's rambling and kind of mumbling, like, you know, mister ed. He said it felt like maybe you couldn't breathe, and maybe you wouldn't make it

through the night, and maybe you'd have to go to the hospital. And then he kind of just trailed off there. You can figure out where he was going with this. He said it was super uncomfort it was frightening. He felt like chess bronchitis. Just one of those weird things that he's sharing with the audience, saying, you know, because they felt bad about missing

a couple of shows. And again we talk about people making trips overseas to go see their favorite band, and you know they know this, they know this when shows are canceled. It's a big deal for artists. I think for all artists. They you know, you're the one that's paying for those nice houses and cars of theirs. But yeah, protect Eddie Vedder at all costs. More on the music blog page. Also, if you wanted to

look ahead, I think you can get at that new Caither song. I'd love for you to wait for us and listen to it together and we can take some phone calls on it. They have a new song. It's called Judas Mind. I think that's the name of the song. Did you look at that? Is that what it is you're looking That's what they put on their Instagram. So we did an announcement yesterday talking about see the going back

out on the road. That's always kind of a trigger asking well, if you're out on the road, some bands just eternally tour and they don't put out any new music anymore. Those are more of the classic rock bands. See they're still I'm sure recording and they are. So the reason for the tour is there is some new music see there and Skillet going out live. They're gonna get to us on October fifth. They're gonna play white Out Music Hall, great place for a show. Take us. All go on sale

But man, I am so excited as I always am with new music to share it with you guys New Caether after the break will listen together. We'll let you guys become the music director here at ninety four to five, the Buzz and you can tell us if it's a smash, if it's a trash, if it's a keeper, if it's a one time listen, do you

like to see there? Do you like the new direction they're in. All of those things will be on the table after this break, so please man hang in there with us or five the Buzz Welcome back Rod Ryan's show. I'm so excited to listen to this new Seither song. The only clip that I heard was what we kind of played during one of the Houston headline segments, and I didn't hear much. So I'm coming into this with fresh ears, just like most of you. But before we play that new one,

let's find out what's trending. What you got? Okay, there's going to be a new Shrek as Shrek five is returning, and apparently Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz are all confirmed to return. It's going to be released in July of twenty twenty six. That's when they're setting that release date. I thought that was pretty cool. I think I've seen three and four. I like the franchise either, Yeah, I have an either. I just think it's it. Yeah, Shrek is my kid, doesn't kind

of a timeless character. My kid doesn't want to watch it. No, no Shrek for Londy. I'm like, Donkey is the funniest thing ever. And she just doesn't get it. I don't know what watched Shrek yesterday. I don't know what the disconnect is. She's not interested. Okay, Okay, some of the older ones, like Nemo, she just doesn't care. She wants princesses that Elsa when you were telling you gave us a fact about the girl, the lady who plays Elsa being up for the Tangled role.

Tangled is Rapunzel. Those are huge in my house. Anything with a princess is still big. Yeah, and I know there's a princess in Trek, but it just doesn't translate to my kids specifically. So I gotta get her on board. Okay, let's talk about the Looking at Girls bog page because it's doing well well, the Wildcard Wednesday and Looking at Girls wog page number one and number two performing for us. And then the fact that it's Waterburger

Appreciation Day remains our biggest trend. So I'm retweeting anyone that gives me a picture of their Waterburger bag. Over on THEX That gets an immediate retweet. Guys, Okay, that's what's trending on eighty four five of us. All Right. We announced the Cather tour and Houston specific show yesterday. See the Out with Skillet October fifth. They'll be here White Oak Music Call. Tickets

I kind of love everything they do, So don't let me down and see there as we listen together, call in after it's over. It's ninety four or five the buzz. Hey, this is Sean Morgan from See This. Check out our new song Judas Mind. This is the iHeartRadio World premiere right now on ninety four five The Buzz Houston's rock and alternative most Human into Corn still scums to the fear stool. So nos,

no shoes please, we escape told us whom we hate? Will we kill? Soul with Souls s ninety four or five The Buzz World premiere of brand new music from our friends see the Oh yeah, We're pals with them. That's called Judas Mind. They got a new album coming out in September. And if that's any indication of what's going to be on that new album, I knew I was gonna be excited, and I knew I was excited

about the right band with new music out. Keep in mind they will be coming to town and for the rest of this week what's left of it, will be giving away tickets before they go on sale. See they're back in town on October fifth. It'll be great to see those guys. They're playing White Oak Music Hall and Skillett is on that bill. Didn't know where the song was going. It could have gone anywhere at this point, and then all of a sudden, I said, oh no, we're gonna melt your

face. Go ahead, Tessa, your thoughts on hearing that for the first time. I think it's timely. I think it's angry. I think it's perfect. I mean, no question, it's like frustrating, it's angry. He's got a great scream voice. Is it a lyrically? Did you pick up anything on that or I heard something about a storm in there, and I'm like, uh, is this the perfect hurricane banger? I mean, I'm not, I'm not sure, but it might be for storm sensitive right

now totally. So. I thought it was nice and angry, Alex. I thought it was a banner. I've not always been the biggest Seather fan, but this is absolutely like what you would expect from Seather, and I think it hits perfectly with the station. I don't want to get too technical. It's got a three fourths time signature one two three two two three one two three two two three. It's got a real nice sway to it as opposed to one two three four two two three four. It's got to sway

and when it's done right, as as it is in this song. I just thought it just moved along perfectly. And I thought the dynamics of getting real agro at times agro, Yeah, I thought it at the times that it got I mean there were times where Okay, you think they're gonna be right here, and they go to another gear in this song, and I absolutely loved it. I loved it. It's like, oh no, not yet, not yet, Just gonna your face a little bit and then I'll

take care of the rest of that face coming off. You guys want to talk about this a little bit, seither Judas mind. What are your thoughts on the song? Bradley got through first? Bradley, you called early, you called. I saw your phone line ringing, and I don't know that the song was even on sixty seconds when I saw you seem like you made

up your mind already. I went through the first chorus kind of sounded like a band that wants to be Tool, And I had a reaction that wasn't quite as intense as Alex's to when Newmo was released, But so yeah, it just didn't quite do it for me. Is Alex's review of The Tool the New Tool song the most memorable review ever? Maybe it's two words diicked out. It's very uh, it was very succinct and pretty accurate. I think well he I think his words were it sucked when we played the New

Tool. Are you thinking that this new se either sucks or you just didn't like it. I didn't love it. Okay, all right, bro, we'll thank you, thank you. Here's what really gets agro Thomas the pain train. Benson, Good morning, Thomas. What's up, guys. I think Bradley needs to listen to one oh four KRB that song last dude. Yeah, turn it up and rip the knob off. I like and it does have a little tool vibe, but tool is legit. Sorry, Alex, we can be wrong. That's fine. I like you bringing back.

Crank it up and rip off the nub. Oh man, I'd been old school days many great stuff, man, And this is exactly what we need on the radio, especially on an alternative rock station. This is this is real music. I forgot what some of the other ones were. Pumping maximum wattage into your cottage to either shakes the lakes and reaches the beaches. All right, I'm out. I forgot to tell you Strong, I kind of forgot some of the other old ones. Kleb good morning, Good morning,

brother Ride. How's it going to man, I'm trying to pump maximum wattage into your cottage with this new sea. The dude how did it work for you? Freaking doing it? Brother, You're freaking doing it. That's Houston's racking alternative brother ride that right there. You definitely won't hear playing an ATP at all. You'll never get Are you as either fan? I am definitely a fan. Yeah, me too, Me too. So I saw them at the last bush Fish, which one dude, we were guessing that they

maybe played twelve ten or twelve buzz Fest over the years. It was twenty two or twenty three. Yeah, that first twenty twenty two or bus Fest twenty twenty three supposedly was going to beat their last time Soaring Comany Houston or something like that. Yeah, there was some hints of that. I didn't take them serious at all when they said that. I really didn't, and clearly I was correct on one thing in life. They're back out on tour.

They're touring, and they're coming back to Houston, which is great news. October fifth, I'm glad you liked it most definitely. Yeah, I really liked it too. I kind of like almost every almost everything that they do. I don't know what Wizard's doing with this. There's no every three hours, there's no like unified thing on Seither right now. I mean, did we played Billie Eilish every hour when it came out. Probably Chili likes this. I don't know how much he got to hear it. Chile he

rocks. Chili's a rocker, That's why Chili rocks out back there, Yo. Were you able to hear it? Yeah? Actually I did like it. Bro I'm not gonna lie, cause you know, everybody was having a day to day, you know the weather and everything. You know, everybody's having an issue. And I felt it was like my limbiscuit break stuff. You know what I think when I see you back there, when I catch you kind of rocking out to the radio station. Sometimes it could be.

It could certainly Chavelle, Yeah, the band would I call the next wave? It wasn't so much the grungeers. I talked about the Flannel four earlier. It was that next wave of and I would put Seither in there with popa Roach and Chevelle and breaking Benjamin Pla, that's your wave. Huh oh yeah, dude. I mean as soon as I heard the guitar, like the first guitar riff when it came in a little hard, Yeah, I was like, oh yeah, oh yeah, daddy likes Daddy likes Okay,

well it listen, daddy likes it. Back there, this daddy likes it. What about Hobby Hey rocknt is ninety four five The Bull that's a perfect review. Bro ther Right Show Celebrating twenty years ninety four or five. The Buzz ninety four to five. The Buzz That is a band that says they're going out on tour for the very last time some forty one fat lip so should you choose to believe them and then maybe a little extra motivation to buy

your tickets? Well, then their plot has worked. Has any band truly said we're never going out on the tour again and then have done that without somebody passing away? It's hard to find. It's kind of hard to find bands that just kind of like just say, oh, we're gonna stop here.

Arim Arim just did something, though, didn't They do an interview and they were talking they said they can't even have like they fought at breakfast, Like they went to breakfast and couldn't agree on an order there or where to go eat. Yeah. Yeah, Arim kind of called it quits and never really got back together, and I imagine they have all the money that they need. But it's ego too. It's not just money for these guys, they're gals. It's ego too. I think the guys in Slayer are pretty

set. But they were the one band that was sticking to the hole. We're retired, we're done. And then they said yes to a handful of festivals. They couldn't say no to the money. And I think there's he go involved to. So I don't know what's going on. In some forty one they say this is it for them. You can get information about them coming to town on the world famous Rod Ryan Show page. Oh no,

I'm sorry. On the main frame at the buzz dot com. There's always a concert calendar with all the links and where to you know, save secure, where to buy your tickets and all of that stuff. All right, party cloudy, really low chances of rain today highs of around ninety four. Taking all your see the emails and I'm going to send those over to the radio wizard. He said, see there today what you heard on the air with us and emails are great. Judas mind is the name of the song

every two hours. So today's it's eight, you're Jeremy's gonna play it in the ten o'clock hour. You guys can do math right every two hours on the radio station today. So I'm glad seither should get that kind of I mean, they're one of the they're one of the I always say you got to dance with the girl that brought you to the dance. You can't just say oh, okay, welling of door and ditcham yes, thanks either for you know, building up this radio station for all of these years, and

then when you put something out, we're like we're good. No, you get some consideration. You help build this radio station. So I'm glad they're getting the treatment every two hours. Think they deserve. It came across this today, albeit not surprised. I'm in the no way Jose category on this, but it makes sense. Anybody have a Nest thermostat. It's a for example, meaning a thermostat that you can kind of get into Wi Fi, operate on your phone something like that. I feel like it started with the

Nest and now most of them you can operate from your phone. You can turn down the heat and turn up the heat or turn the air on before you get home. All of that, What about giving up that information to the power companies? Now hear me out the phrase growing up in my house that sent chills down my spine was who touched the thermostat. My mom still does it to this day, and I'm like, I'm a grown ass man, and I still if I turn that heat on in the wintertime and it's

a little warm in the house, my mom still yells it out. I'm like, I'm sorry, it was me. I'm freezing. I live in the South. Now, Mom, there's a smart thermostat program that's being introduced in some cities, and you install a smart thermostat, you pay a little less each month in exchange for letting them control your thermostat remotely. How much less, I don't know if you'd save in a couple of bucks. Hal brought this up the other day. Hal said, when he was a kid,

they had the to save money on their phone in their house. This is long, long before cell phones. He would pick up the phone in his house and you could hear somebody talking that wasn't in the house. It was a party line that was cheaper, and then you just like you heard somebody talking, you had to wait to make a phone call. They were sharing the line. We never I heard of that. I don't know that that was around when I was a kid. But what was around was limited

calling. We were allowed to make two calls a day. I'm like, I want to call my friend. My mom's like no, no, we've already made two calls today. We called this some of that. You can't call your friend. We had limited calls because it was a cheaper plan. This is what this is. Kind of like that, it's a cheaper plan. During peak hours, they up the temperature by a few degrees to reduce strain on the grid. Usually happens between what three and nine PM, And

in Oregon they limit it to three degrees. So if your thermostatus set to seventy one, they may up you at a seventy four, but they can't go any higher than that. Some cities are setting max is even higher. There's a program out in La. I get it, don't La, don't California, my Texas. But in LA that lets them increase it by four degrees. And you have their word that they won't go over that. Yeah, right, but that's the starting point. Okay, Well we're now we're

going to go five. Well, now we're gonna go six. I can see that coming down the road. Now you can override it by changing the temperature manually. Is it worth it to say a few bucks to help out? Is it? Are you helping the environment? Are you helping the grid? Are you who are you helping here? You're helping them, You're not helping yourself. Just because of our schedule difference, I'm completely out on this. Like, when I want to be at home and comfortable is probably not

the same time as someone else. So no, I need it comfortable when I need it comfortable. There's no way. I mean, I can't even imagine Joe Grid turning up my thermostat. Yeah, you don't know what's happening in my house. Yeah, let's just focus on you getting that power on, buddy, and then we'll talk about your other privileges. The only reason I'm talking about it is because people are doing it to save money on their thermostat. What about your place that you rent out? Yeah, it's just

kind of sitting there. It's like, Hey, I want to get on that plan. Joe Grid. You take care of it. You know. Now you're trusting Joe Grid and you control it. Yeah, I control, well, you forget what it's on my phone, what's on schedule, Joe, I have a scheduler on your okay thing already. You can be your own Joe grid if you choose. So it's pretending this is going to help you, This is helping them. It seems that Oregon is the one that's

really spearheading this. Their biggest power company is rolling out the smart thermostat program and they and they have people that have signed up for it and say, yeah, you know better than me what I need in my house. You control the thermostat. They call those people's chink. What I don't what I can't seem to find. I do have a link up to this, if you go to the link and if you can find it. I don't see on there. What kind of savings can I expect? Is it ten dollars

a month? Because there's people that get off on ten cents off of Crest toothpaste. So I understand when people want to save money everywhere they can. I just don't. I mean, saving a nickel on deodorant is just not my thing. It's something jam right, It's just not my jam. And again, okay a millionaire. I'm not I'm not cutting coupon's. I'm not doing this. I'm not doing this either. I'm just not. All right, don't don't do not touch my Thermostack Rock and Alternative very used to The

Rod Ryan Morning Show six to ten am. The Buzz. All right, there we go, ninety four to five The Buzz. Good morning, Rod Ryan's Show. It's green day, Good riddance, time of your life. Less than a ten percent chance of rain today. That's good. Partly cloudy. All right, it's still gonna be hot though, man. True temperature is about ninety four ninety five. Is gonna feel like over one hundred Today'd be careful if you're outside. Help you get your power back soon, man,

And let's just get right into it. Tessa has Houston's headlines. Yeah, I mean, I guess we could just keep our attitudes hopeful. But there are over a million households that have been left in these conditions that are I would say okay right now, but they're getting they're more miserable as the day goes on. Right because we've had these heat advisories, and there's a heat advisory actually that's been extended through it at least tonight with hot and humid

conditions. Those are continuing. We have been without power for more than forty eight hours after Barrel moved through Houston, and according to Centerpoint's energy outage tracker, over one point three million customers are still in the dark. There's not a specific timeline of when the power will fully be restored. At its peak, we know there were over two point two million customers without power. That's

about eighty percent of all the Centerpoint customers. And you know, previously centerpoint is said they want to have one million of those initial two point two customers back online by the end of the day today. The company said customers should expect a multi day process. Remember alex they said a multi day process to get that electricity restored. There is a new map they released overnight. I finally found a link to it. I could not find this thing anywhere and

I'll retweet it. But there are three colors, So the city of Houston is just highlighted in three colors. Where it's green, the power is back, where it's blue. Crews have been assigned to at least restore the power and work is being done there. And if you're in one of these orange areas. That means Center Point is still a tessing damage. So that restoration process could mean a couple of different things. So I'll retweet that out.

That's where we are, and that's where it stands for us. Hard not to feel if you see yourself in the orange like you're on the bottom floor of the Titanic. Pretty much, it's like I have a child, center Point, Go show them out. You're the least important passengers. Have a child. These they ain't had no child, but fix it. Okay. So that's the serious stuff. Lots of traffic lights still out. When to

remind everyone to treat those like a four way stop. More than a thousand traffic lights in the city of Houston out, So you've got to have a little respect for your neighbors that are driving next to you. Let's talk about Taco Bell. They're opening a retirement community for young people next month near San Diego. This is like a gimmicky thing. It's only a weekend, but they're leaning into Grandma Core. They say this will attract more gen Z customers.

A lot of young people think old people's stuff is cool now, So Taco Bell's like, okay, you want to see something cool, like what were there original candies? I mean maybe flying off the shelf. They've got day passes for fifty dollars, or if you want to stay for two nights, you'll get lodging for one hundred and fifty and Taco Bell says they'll provide you with an elevated dining experience and access to various old people activities think like

knitting, BATCHI ball, golf, old school games. Okay, there, listen, there is a blog page dedicated to this. You do have to be a Taco Bell Rewards member to go, which is in a high bark because anyone can join. The should have murder, she wrote, like going NonStop on the big screen outside Mattlock. Sure, like a little gout of smoke. Yeah, some random person that just shows you pictures of their grandkids for hours to get home and watch my stories. Yes, yes, okay,

I have in a weird political conversation too. Okay, let's talk about cartoons. I like how it goes from like the seriousness of the hurricane. You're like, Hey, which cartoon do you think would be Probably? I mean that's a very serious thing. I never thought i'd live in a world, but then we are in this world. So yeah, who what cartoon character would be best suited to play president? To play president? Okay, So ranker dot com ranked the top people like they have the top twenty vote

getters, and number one is Gotham City's finest Batman Batman number one. Number two Lisa Simpson. Wasn't you always like trying to run for class president? And wasn't she class president? I don't know, she just played the sacks she's in there. And then Superman number three, Spider Man number four, Velma from Scooby Doo number five, and just so we have six and seven, Papa Smurf an Optimus prime. I mean Papa Smurf ruled over Smurf Village.

Well, yeah, saved him from Gargamel, only had to deal with one chick all the time. That's the difference there. Oh, great point was all do? Okay, two huge acts have teamed up. This falls either in skillet or hitting the road. September seventeenth, they're gonna have a trek through Houston October fifth at whiteok Music Hall.

Arch Manning there was a big story about him not being in there with yesterday him and his favorite uncle Eli Manning. They announced that he was going to be on there by a cool little video of him playing the video game, and people kind of freaked out about it. You can just see that. I saw there was

some damage at Energy Stadium on the roof. Some of the panels came flying off. It couldn't have been too bad though. There's stage in beds for it. Well, they're probably were. It's not leaking. Yeah, guess I don't know. There's like there's a bunch of different areas. There are huge parts of it that are just seem to be missing. That happened. That happened years ago. The roof was stuck open after Rita or Ike and we did a monster Jam with the roof open. It was awesome, It

was it was glorious. They would never in a million years think of doing that, and they had, They had no choice. The stadium was fine, but yeah, there was one monster jam in our history here that the roof was. It was the cool Oh, it was the coolest monster jam ever. Because it's at night, it was cooler.

I gotta get props because we know this. We knew this going in because the Waterburger app has

its own link up. Today, people are using the Waterburger app to show neighborhoods where there's no power. It's better than any power grid app available to us. The Waterburger app is so unbelievably updated that if you look and you just type in Houston. I have the app on my phone, so you type in Houston and it'll show you all the water Burgers. Number one, I didn't know there were that many. I knew there was a ton here,

I didn't know there were that many. About a third of them are open, and at a quick count, it must have been about thirty five forty of them. That's a third of the water Burgers just in the Houston area. And it's going on all we have to conrom so I got it. I know that they're not all open, but some of you are really making an attempt. I got to give it up. You hear his name every now and then on the show Oil and Gas Greg. He's like one

of our great listeners. He's been on board forever with us, not even in oil and Gas anymore. That's how long he's been listening. He's been to three locations. He went to two. They weren't open. He went, he went to it and silver. He said, Dude, they're wrapped over most. I think all the places are just doing drive through that. The ones that are open, he said, cars wrapped around the block. He said, I'll buy a couple of backpacks for you today. I'm like,

thank you, Greg, you're the best. If you can get to a water Burger today, I get it. The ones that are open, they're in high demand, they're in high demand. But snap that photograph, send it over to us. We want to thank Whataburger because we know that they're going to be writing us a check for backpacks today. So you don't got to order anything specific, you don't have to say anything to your server, Get in, get out, But it's just you going to water Burger

getting whatever it is that your favorite thing is over there. Then it's just that's how you're saying thank you today. And if you can back it up with a photograph of you and join your water Burger, that would even be better so that we can retweet it and reput it out in socials. All right, So thank you for that. Thank you, Whata Burger. They're the best. They are the best, and they're going to be out there when we're passing out backpacks. So there they are. Roll up your sleeves

and get involved type of sponsors. Okay, this ain't gonna go over. Well, I might as well just bust it out. A bar in California is kind of going viral online. It's in San Diego, which if you've ever been, if you ever looked at I have real estate. I don't know why. I never planned it on, never intended to move there, but you know, you start looking at you know, Zell is it zell Zillozillo, Zillo, Oh my god, Zillo. The the billing porn to

live in Sandia. I don't know how anybody lives there. I don't know how anybody lives there. Generational wealth. So the Catalina Lounge is. This guy was closing out his uh, his bar tab. It was twenty four dollars and fifty cents. Okay. The screen gave him four suggestions for a tip. Okay, okay, twenty percent, twenty five percent, fifty percent, and one percent was an option. What nothing puts me in the mood to tip zero zero more than being asked to pay double what I own?

What? Okay? Why are they doing that? Why is one even an option. That's predatory. Okay, if I'm out at a bar and I'm not seeing things correctly because I've got an uber coming to pick me up, and I accidentally hit one hundred percent, this should not be an option on a bar. I'm calling my card company and say I got it stolen. Immediately after that, yeah, I'm giving my card to somebody, say here,

go have fun. I'm handled it in ten minutes. I mean, there's there's there's an option to customize your own and if you want to leave one hundred percent, because hey, they were great and that's fine, but having that just as a button right next to the other ones and the internet agrees with me. Right here, I'll say this. The guy was so appalled he took a photo of it. That's what's going viral. Commenters are saying all kinds of things, especially for a bar. I'm not the only

one that feels his way a bar. If someone isn't looking closely, you're not thinking clearly, you could invertly tip way more than you mean to with something like that. Just wait until remember the pop up ads how it used to be, like the fake X was there. Yeah, try and get you to do that so you can click the pop up bet. I guarantee you it's going to be like to give not tip. It'll be like you have to hit the tiniest little thing you have solve a riddle to get at

a pay and a tip. But like that'll be like the hundred, it'll be the right, the biggest one. I'm with everybody that the tipping thing has gone crazy. I still tip. I don't ever tip zero. I worked in the industry a million years ago. I still take care of the people that take care of me. Okay, now is that because we dealt with this when I own the bar? You have a like? I think toast is a big one. If you see on your receipt sometimes if you

go out to eat, it'll see tst. Toast is the credit card system that is in a bar and a restaurant. Okay, I don't know what they were called when you were doing it, wasn't There was another big popular one that I can't remember, but Toast is a big one. It may be pre programmed, but I know you can customize it too. Yeah,

I know firsthand that you can customize these things. So if it's pre programmed in there, then f you Toast for putting a one hundred percent option to click and tip because you have other customize and you can do it that way. But I just don't think that should be an option. I'm sorry. I Also, when you're programming your your POS, when you're programming that system,

someone is overseeing that. So if a manager knows that this is available, you would be on the phone with Toast or whoever your credit card people, you know, whoever your server is and say, hey, this is such a bad look for us, we need to get it off right now. The guy was mad that it was an option. He posted his actual receipt. He ended up tipping twenty percent, which is but he was mad. Generous, but he was mad. Yeah, and that's you know,

and that's for drinks. It's not a dinner. Yeah, that's not a dinner. That's not a server coming bringing you water and checking your how's your meal? And did I forget anything? Can I bring you some more tartar sauce? Whatever's that's for a couple of drinks. That's generous. Absolutely, that's the first option. That's the first option. I'm there.

Or you'll be like drinking a cup of coffee that you can see through the cup, or you'll be drinking anything you can see through the glass, and you're talking at one point and then somehow your glass fills up in the middle of the conversation because they

went and they grab a different part of it.

Ryan show. Oh please, people may know the wrong with a little beat on ninety four to five the but ninety four or five the buzz, Good morning rod Ryan, Shump Jelly roll. We had a bunny is it? Bunny xo? Bunny xo. Yeah, we had a link up to her yesterday. She was being talked about in Houston's headlines and you know, she's sharing very personal things online. She's talking about the journey that her and Jelly

are going on. They want to have a kid together. She's already the step mom to Jelly's two kids, and she's just talking about, you know, some of the things they're doing. I mean, even if even me mentioning IVF, you know, I was open about it. I didn't want to become a poster child for it, but I used IVF. We used IVF successfully, obviously, I have London and there's just people that, you know, make comments to me about that. I chose to talk about it

on the radio and you know, well, why'd you do that? Why couldn't you do it? Why couldn't you do something else? I'm like, because that's what we needed, you know, that's that's what we needed, and that's how I've got my kid now. And that's no and that is a beautiful thing and that's your journey. But people can't comprehend why people are choosing to go a certain way in life without making a dumb ass comment,

and it's annoying, it really is. Yes, true, you open yourself up, but you shouldn't be you shouldn't be punished for sharing things that that people who care about you want to know about. Well, I think she did. We want to know what you're doing, we want to know what's going on with you. And so many people are supportive, but there's always

one jackal yeah, not like a yeah. Not everybody was supportive and that's why I did again, you know, at the where we did everything and you know where the Turkey base thing went down, you know, like, hey, can we put a picture on the wall. There's the kids everywhere and it's all from you know, idyf And I'm like, yeah, but I don't want like a wing with my name on it. I don't want

to I don't want a bigger picture than anyone else. But yeah, I'm cool with all of that, but I just you know, I'm not going to do you know, I don't want I don't want to be in your ads. You know, I did it, and I didn't mind sharing it. But you know, Bunny XO kind of got caught up in that too, more followers than what we have, and she didn't like some of the comments, so she tore the stuff down and then she felt that need to comment on it. You're going to open yourself up like that. There's just

awful people out there. There are just awful people in the world. Yeah, you know, on the Looking at Girls blog page, which I don't talk about enough, we have the world's fastest mermaid. Okay, I saw this story. We have the world's fastest mermaid she's twenty two years old. She's from Utah. She competed in something called the Merlympics in Switzerland. They're held every two years. She plays fifteenth overall. But what does everybody care

about the fifty meter? The fifty You win the fifty meter, you're the fastest person on the planet. She's the fastest mermaid in the world. Okay, she won the fifty meter, set a new world record thirty eight seconds for the fifty meter mermaid swim. Of course, all events are done wearing a full mermaid tail. But if you want to see this, yeah we are. We are home to the fastest mermaid, so world record holder. That's just some of the stuff that you will see on the world famous.

Also, if you haven't seen that Mermaid documentary on Netflix, it is excellent. I didn't and I won't. It is excellent. Is it people that want to be Is it like fur ez? There's a community, Yeah, there's a community. Are they disillusioned people? Some of them are, but some of them they like travel and they get paid. Like there's like this elite group of mermaids and you got to try out, you with them and they work in these frigid temperatures and they do a chlorine in their eye rod

they made a serious Okay, but you know how I'm weirded out. Come on, Okay, you know how I'm weirded out, and I think it's cool. I do find it weird that the Renaissance people they stay in character and they don't get out of character. And I'm assuming that's just in the village, you know, but are they doing hassaiing like in their everyday life? Are these mermaid people? Are they just acting like mermaids when they're in character or are they doing it? No, dude, they're submitted. They

they you like they are they identify as mermaid. Everybody's weird coworker that you're like, hey, Molly and sales. But do they like have like those tails cost thousands of dollars, Like they're not just playing around like they're committed to be Do they know they're not Mermaids? Do they know that they're not murphulm? Okay, I'd like to think remember Rainbow, Remember Rainbow the Mermaid.

You watched it, you got into it. It's like a car wreck, you can't like stop watching it. We're like, well, I'm gonna watch the second other, Well, then I'm not going to get in the car. It's junk TV. I just know what you know what you're getting in not getting behind the wheel on that one. I remember hearing from this guy Kurt, and maybe you guys will remember as well. Listen, when we say that we're thankful for everybody out there that's working on restoring powers.

You just you just put something up on the Instagram. Oh yeah, did you? And it was kind of showing a map of It was a colorized map, and basically, I guess the way to explain it is the colors are a priority on where they're working on getting power restored. And if you are in the third color of well, these two other colors are taking priority because of something in that area, then that's just kind of like a slap in the face, like, oh damn, I'm in the orange over here.

When we say thank you and we say that we know you guys are working around the clock, men and women, we talk about getting the power restored and working on these things. Afterwards, there's a specific job that this guy does and he doesn't feel like he gets mentioned on the air because he's not climbing up the poles, and he's not like hooking up those lines. I'm gonna read his email. I know a lot of love goes out to

the linemen's specific on the term linemen. But before they can replace any poles, the utility locators have to go ahead of them and mark the utilities, especially the gas lines. They do not want to turn on a or turn a bad situation into a deadly one. We're out there with the linemen working just as many hours trying to keep them and the community safe. YouTube bro Okay, I'm not busting balls here. You toobe, you go out before

the lineman. I guess I just we didn't know. It's just one of those generic terms like okay, shout out to the linemen out there, well, the scout lineman, the scouter outer, the scouter outer, you too, Chili. Wait a minute, there you are, Chili. What's up? I see Chili laughing. Well, it's funny because I've done that locating utilities. Okay, wait, Witt, you were a scouter outer. Yeah,

I used to locate out locate location locator tech. That's wait a minute, hang on, was this before or after you and Dirty Loo were moving hot tubs? I know, that old job of yours that was after so so I was moving hot tubs, line locator and answer, Chili on the box, now bouncer, and then radio and Chili on the radio. Okay, So does it sound like what this guy is saying that he does? Yes, but you see the action just change. I don't know how much

it's changed because it's been about twenty years since I did it. All right, but did you see any action? Were you in the suck? Did you did you? Were you out there after a hurricane or anything? I wasn't, but I know that whenever, uh, whenever there's like a cut, like a phone line cut, they narrowed it down to what area it is, Like they said, you in first, you were the grunt. You have to go in there and mark the line so they don't cut anymore

to prevent more damage. What was that movie that the guy wore that big bomb suit and like he went in, Oh yeah, what was that? Hurt Lockers? Hurt Locker? Yeah, you were that guy. Not No, like when it really gets bad, they sent in Chili first. Now it already got bad, so they sent me in Chilly, go find a bomb to make sure he doesn't get any worse, dude, walk across this minefield for us. Oh see it's safe, trust me. Yep, I'll there some sketchy stuff for a full pint. Yeah, well, dude,

grab that line. See if it's live. Yeah, dude, Hey, that's how ended up in radio. I was like, what, don't pay me to talk? Okay? All right? I got zapped too many times? Man? Is there any jobs in radio? Can I get away from these power lines? I've been all kinds of stuff. Bro, did you know your twin brother did that? He tells me about it all the time. Really, I know his worst stories. How does he never share that. I've known this guy longer than you, I know your twins and all.

I've known him monger than you. I've never done. I don't know he was hurt locker room out there, he was the most hurt. Thank you, Chili, and listens when you got to locate like seventeen miles on both sides of the street, your ass wasn't running seventeen miles looking for stock. No, you're walking me, Okay, you weren't walking seventeen miles. Yeah, well they won't know that. Hey, Chili is all seventeen miles clear. Meanwhile, meanwhile, he made it too. He's like, yeah,
