Good work, buddy, your your gift certificate for your novel. Dot com headed down the rock ledge for you.
My mother.
Lets jump out catch you up on your news. Right on the other side of this report, our time.
Caps over us February six, I will lie.
This is the award winning John Boy and Billy Big Show, the South's number one export.
I told you anytime you come around the.
New York area, will you take care of us.
I'm gonna have to because both of you will get killed if you go by yourself.
Yeah.
So normally when somebody says if you come to New York, I'll take care of you.
Yeah, oh yeah, come on off, I got some people Dodo.
Yeah, this is my friend Tony. Don't worry about nothing. Getting in the car. We'll see you later.
You better tell Randy you're gonna be late for Monday show.
Though, Okay, like hanging out with you know, Donnie Brasco or something.
Yeah, and you know, did you see that movie? Yeah? I actually sell out. I mean it was incredible. Was like talking to my family.
Is that right?
Because every other word was, I'll forget about it, and it we'll forget about Hey, it'll forget about it. Because if you looked that up in the dictionary, it says see by the being the boom, right.
So so forget about it?
What does that mean?
What do you need to forget about it? Don't worry about it? It means anything you wanted to mean.
Like an hawk and mean hello, goodbye.
Yes, it could be.
It can mean, in other words, you can say to someone you have a good time listening, I forget about it.
So it's like equivalent of duh huh, it's it's It means unbelievable.
It means don't worry about it. It means it's none of your business.
Shut up, shut up face.
Sometimes it actually means forget about.
It, right.
Sometimes it means Randy, just get out of this. Sometimes it means that you know what I'm saying.
I like Brooklyn being botty boom.
That means that means forget about it, forget about it.
It's like a loop. We're called it.
I have no I really I tried. And here's another thing up Brooklyn. People say not for nothing, not for nothing? Hey, hey, you know, not for nothing, but you know that don't make no sense at all. Do you know how grammatically incorrect that is? Look, I'm talking to John Baker. Yeah, really, no, I don't know what that means. Not not for nothing, forget about it. I don't know what those things mean. But that's a typical Brooklyn thing. And lately I've been traveling a lot and people have been coming up to me and telling me that there is a similarity between the Boston accent and the Brooklyn accent. And I can't see the similarity because I have friends from Boston, and when I'm with them, I have no idea what they're talking about. I was with them two months ago.
Steve command, I gotta go to a bath.
I said, what said, comman, we gotta go to a bath?
I said, it.
Shows a good place where there's a lot of sheep.
I'm not interested. Come on, Steve, let's go potty. I don't have to go potty even if I did uncle by myself.
Really, that's it's incredible. I don't I have to tell them to slow down. They say car right, they pack the car wada. Well, the Kennedy's are from that area, you know, Ted Kennedy parked the car in the water because he went to a bad and they're too much.
Of a patty.
Patty.
And see.
I always say, you know when you're talking to somebody from Brooklyn, not just New York in Manhattan, Brooklyn. You know when you're talking to somebody from Brooklyn, because every time they talk to you, it will always repeat your name. You know, Tony Hey doing Tony.
Hey, Hey, Bobby Hey doing Bobby.
Okay, unless they're not too bright, then it's like, hey, Joey, how are you, Louisy, Freddy.
How you doing? Frankie? Okay, Kay, you're looking good.
It's so true, man, Yeah, that's why. And people say Brooklyn people have attitudes. I'm really sick of hearing that.
I mean, we do.
If I hear one more guy say that.
If I hear one more guy tell me to have an attitude, I'm going to stab him in a heart with a pincher, my father.
Do you'll do that on purpose?
Huh?
You do, no purpose. It just natural.
This comes naturally to have an attitude. It's because of the environment it gives. Everything is so fast paced. And that's why if you ever notice, I know you people can't see this on the air. But you know when people from Brooklyn they're always moving around, that's because they're dodging bullets. They don't trust somebody who might be in back. Hey, hey, I show it.
Okay, Hey Tommy, Hey, don't do that. I mean, give me a hot attend forget about it. You know, I'm telling you that's the way it is.
It's a very I was brought up in the neighborhood where if you went to the neighborhood McDonald's, it was like cover me, I'm going for fries. You know, that's how.
Bad it was.
Was like mob, Yeah, it was.
It was you know, gangs and there was a.
Lot of mobs, girl scouts and everybody.
And that was the Bernies.
By a cookie or a stab, you low life.
But really, I mean, you're sweet, and there's some sweet people up there. I guess it's just kind of misunderstand.
That's another thing.
You should never never sweet.
Never never go into New York and say, excuse me, can you give me directions? And when they give it, don't ever go See that was sweet of you, because you'll wind up with a nice pick in the back of your head.
You know, how was this was.
That sweet for you to have power.
How does that you, sweetie hat, I'd give you a sweet forget about it.
I got your sweet. That's another thing. I got your sweet right here. That's not See.
I have a book because I'm from Brooklyn. I just wrote a motivational book. It's called Hey, motivate this.
That's what it's called. I swear to God, I swear that's coming out.
It's a good book and it's really filled with a lot of intense stuff and it's very fun.
Motivate this.
That's about that.
Well, it's all about acquiring an attitude. And this whole philosophy abou having an attitude means is that you need one today in order to survive. And it doesn't necessarily mean you have to be, you know, rude, but you need that edge.
Which is why I love cats.
See because every cat in the world has a Brooklyn attitude. And if you have a cat, you know what I'm talking about. They walk around like the gods give to the animal kingdom. If cats could talk, they go meow, meow about a bing.
Me out right, Hey, I'm walking here, I'm walking here.
John Boy and Dilly, he's dumb as dirt, Bless his heart morning.
We're yelled dumb right.
Good morning. That's a big show on the radio for you. Tuesday February is six.
Yes, that.
Welcome to John Boy and Billy Playhouse. Today's episode Romance after Retirements. As our story opens, Henry and Myrtle Bethide are sitting quietly in their Brushywood retirement village apartment.
Well there it is to two o'clock signal. Yes, wow, I might be one of them diviners. Come on World Ground a remote just judies.
Coming on, daggd Henry. I am sick to death of your with that woman.
What you mean obsession? It's a TV show.
You don't see me getting all bent out of shape every day at four o'clock when you put on that simple talking lawyer.
Was his name, old Andy Griffin. What's his name of the flat top?
It's Matlock, Henry. And you'd know that if you took a tiny bit of interest in.
The things that I like.
Oh boy, here we go, Madlock flat Top. What's the difference. I was a lawyer for forty four years. Did you ever take an interest in even one of my cases?
No?
Ooh, But every day at four o'clock, make way for the legal hay seed.
That was just thing, Henry. You're missing the point.
These are supposed to be our golden years, but we just seem to be drifting apart. I just I just miss how things used to be.
Before we were retired.
You were always the most romantic hairing man I'd ever met. But now sometimes I think you might just be happier if I were just a myrtle.
Myrtle, don't even say that, nobody.
That's true, Henry. Don't you remember how it used to kiss me every chance you had?
No?
But now I can't even remember the last time that.
You last time I did this no tongue?
Well yeah, and don't you remember how you never sat next to me without holding my hand? Oh?
You're right, myrtle, but I do still like holding your hand here.
See, Oh, Henry, but do you remember how you used to, you know, not fall asleep and never on my neck whenever you were feeling the.
Frisky, do myrtle? You wait right here, I'll be right back. Well, where on earth are you going?
If I'm gonna be doing me some neck nibbling? I gotta have my teeth, don't.
I nailed it?

I'm good.
It sounds like somebody got an advance copy of them twenty five dollars urban gummies.
Back. I want to start with this man now.
First, Now, I know your wife surprised you with tickets to see you two in the spear in Las Vegas. When are you leaving this this week?
We're leaving, to my knowledge, on Thursday. But keeping mind that's an American Airlines slight. That's why we're leaving Thursday, because the show is Saturday, Johnny, And I'm assuming that I have had many a time road tripping where I swear to God I can get my twenty ten Ford f one fifty and beat American Airlines to my destination. You've had a problem, they Yeah, as if today, we are scheduled to get out of here on Thursday, and the U two show is Saturday night.
All right, now when you figured out after that? And I have to tell you why it is Super Bowl weekend. That is a little a super Bowl that is happening in Vegas. And also I saw live the live golf tournament is there this weekend as well.
Did you know that too?
Yeah?
I did you know.
I gotta figure. I mean, we're gonna have it.
Listen, the show should be spectacular on Saturday night, and I really am looking forward to being there because I've seen the videos and it just looks like it's an incredible experience. And by the way, you two is not bad either, but it's gonna be It's gonna be a freak show in Vegas, Johnny. You gotta figure the amount of people that are rolling in town.
I mean, Vegas on.
A given weekend is already nuts, right, but you throw in the super Bowl for the first time, to live golf, you know that.
Whole Saudi Arabian things. I'm telling what's.
Floating on there, and you gotta figure there's people making appearances in Vegas that normally don't make appearances in Vegas, if you know what I'm talking about this weekend. So it's found to be fun. I tell you what's funny, Johnny. When my little girls were growing up, I told both Gg and Emmy that when they turned thirteen, would have a daddy daughter road trip. All right, I said, where every to go? Just me and you and so Gig being the girly girl. And by the way, who got engaged this weekend? So congratulations, Yeah, Gigi got gaged this weekend. So, so she wanted to go to New York City, all right. So she wanted to go to a couple of Broadway shows and shop to you Drop and Times Square, I mean, so that was her thing. I said, whatever you want, daddy, daughter, we did it.
It was great.
Now, Emmy's our youngest and she's a real independent, kind of a daredevil, so about and there are nineteen months apart. So when it got to her town to be thirteen, I said, Emmy, you know you saw all we did with geej. Where do you want to go? She says, Dad of narrat Dana two places. I said, all right, whatever you want.
She goes.
The first place was she wanted to go to Atlantis and the Bahamash, and I said, I said, listen, we've done that.
As a family, So that's off. She goes. I figured that's what you were going to say. So where I want to go is Vegas.
So she she picked Vegas, Johnny, So I said, why a Las Vegas. She goes, well, you know, I love roller coasters and I want to state it in New York, New York because they got a roller coaster that goes right to the hotel. I want to go skydive, and I want to go off to the Tower, the Strip whatever they call that giant tower. There's four or five things. So I want to take a helicopter ride to the Grand Canyon. So we did Vegas, and the funny thing is when we went out there, it was Halloween weekend.
There was a UFC fight and the rodeo was in town.
And for a daddy to take their little thirteen year old walking down the strip with all those freak shows.
Going on, I mean, her eyeballs popped out of her head. So when you said, hey, this week, if we're gonna go to the U two.
Thing, I suspect you. I'll have flashbacks and take an Emmy to Vegas when she was thirteen because there will be all kinds of creatures walking around the strip this weekend.
So we're looking forward to this.
Well, we we're just hoping you you found a hotel room and don't have to sleep in your car.
Well no, well we haven't quite figured that part out.
I want to get that figure.
We may be look, we may be out in the desert with the guys.
Yeah, yeah, hangover, hangover, We're gonna be sleeping on top of the roof of Caesar's Palace with the mattress the guys from hanging Yes, gay way for your report next week when you get back, buddy, I know you have a big time.
Yeah, it'll be a good time.
There's no doubt in terms of what I actually do for a living, at least for the short term.
Uh, Carolina beat Duke Johnny over the weekend. I know you watched it.
Oh yeah, yeah, I figured you watched that. And Armando Baycott says the ACC runs through him. Yeah, now listen, he's a big time player. He listen, he's a terrific talent. I do think it runs through North Carolina. I don't know if I say it'snna run through Armando, even though he had a tremendous game, go over twenty five to ten and five assists, And it was the first time a player did that against Duke from Carolina since the late.
Late since Charlie Scott. He's still alive, chicken. But Charlie did it in nineteen seventy. That's how long it's.
Been to set Carolina pull off that trip. And then I told you about the other big game in the SEC. Tennessee goes to Kentucky and beats the Wildcats, and old Rick Barnes is seven and one against Kentucky when the Wildcats are ranked in the top ten.
That is pretty good.
And by the way, one real quick thing too, which I thought was the funniest scene for the weekend. Auburn was playing Ole Miss, all right, and the game is at Ole Miss and there's a loose ball the guys are going after, and there's a guy from Auburn by the name of Johnny Broom and he gets tangled up with a player right there and there, you know, they got a bunch of people sitting on the court side all that stuff. Well, a fan reaches up and grabs Johnny brooms jersey from Auburn, so he can't go the game to that Ole Miss, right, So Johnny just assumes it's a player and reaches around and slaps the hand of the guy that's hold on new jersey.
Well, guess what.
It turned out that fan was a guy by the name of Morgan Freeman, one of the great actors who who's a big Old Miss fan apparently, And so Broom turned around and realized he had slapped Morgan Freeman all right during the game and went over to apologize to him and say he may I'm a big movie Buffy level all you work.
And apparently for Morgan Freeman was like, hey man, I just keep playing.
But he just assumed it.
Was a player from All miss that was grabbing his jersey.
It was Morgan Freeman sitting there on the front row pulling it off.
Oh dude, I thought something else.
That's is that crazy?
It's nuts.
One more thing too, Morgan Frame. One more thing.
And I watch it every year just because I have no idea what the world's going on in the world. But I had to watch the Grammys on Sunday night, Johnny, and again it might be the only live TV event that I watched that I really have no idea who ninety eight percent of the people are, right.
I mean, I sit there and go, hey, honey, do you know who that is?
No?
You know, no, I mean I have no clue. But I'm sitting there watched it. And again, you know our girl, you know, you know she's gonna gonna be there. You know, you know he's gonna beat the super Bowl. You know what I'm talking about. Taylor Swift was there.
Yes, I Swizzerland.
She won the Album for the Years. She's all great and all that stuff.
So that was really sad to hear afterwards that a guy by the name of Killer Mike. Killer Mike. He won three awards that night. Rap Album of the Year and all that stuff. Killer Mike got arrested Johnny right after he won an award. Killer Mike. Come thinking myself, how is it possible a guy by the name of Killer Mike could.
Be arrested.
After Killer Mike, Killer Mike? And nobody knows. Nobody knows. Why was the rusted up to your wayman? His name is Killer Mike. We don't know what the problem can be here. I mean again, I don't know what happened. They got kind of altercation.
I thought you were still talking about Taylor Swift. Maybe that's what they said. If she starts talking about Travis Kelson Killer Mike Killer.
No, I will tell you that's I don't know if you watch it, but Trade Chapman and Luke Combs, we're really good.
I'm waiting for tomorrow Tater Tainment News Update.
I'm gonna find out all about there.
So you'll find out. You'll find out to see if Tater can find out about Killer Mike. If he's okay, everybody's and up. Not every day you win three Grammys, they basically escort.
You off the stage in the jail. Who is that Killer Mike?
Well, you driving safe? This weekend, Bunnie, have a big time look at.
A full report, full report.
And I'm hoping American Airlines hands out in some of those uh those bourbon gummies that you're sitting there. You know that sounds pretty good. I think I could probably use them.
That might help your flying experience. You don't know.
If I get enough of them, I might just fly the damn thing.
Fuck you be careful, buddy, I'll be good.
All right.

Good morning, Big shows on the radio. Answer the bit request this morning, Well, mister Brent Baker from Detroit, Michigan, Ego, Brent.
There are a lot of reasons I like to eat in the cafeteria, mainly because the food is laid out copiously and usually inexpensively, and you don't need to be served, and therefore no need to tip. And some of them, of course, they will the fawn all over you, try to make you feel guilty enough to tip, try to carry your tray when you're perfectly able to carry it yourself. Then keep coming around to ask if you need anything else, when everything you need is up there for all able to walk to it. And of course, if you choose not to spend an extra dollar on coffee or tea and get water, they'll come by and fill the water glass up a half a dozen times, even when it's already nearly full. Cafeterias are great places for people who eat alone. Usually there are enough seats in this spacious, no nonsense rooms to find a place to yourself. Where can you relax and read the paper and hope to be left alone. Recently, I was in such a place, and the young woman, seeing that everything was all right, had apparently heard my commentaries on being left alone, and did indeed leave me alone for that. I left her dollar tip. First time. I suppose anyone has left a tip for being totally neglected in an eating place, even when the bills only What about five dollars? About that? So says Robert d Rafer, John Boy and Billy Show.
Yo morning, it's a big shaw on the radio headed door.
Super Bowl weekend. We always celebrate with one of our heroes. How about that?
Yes, Andy Griffith, one of my fellow club members in the North Carolina Broadcasting Hall of Fame. There I look with John Boy and Billy's name. I'm sure how it works alphabetically, Andy Griffith right there, he would, Okay, enough about me?
What do y'all think about you? I think G still comes before J.
All right, the Glasac Andy Griffith rolling y'all.
It was back last October, I believe it was. We are going to hold a tenth service all off at this college town. And we got there about dinner time on Saturday, and different ones of us thought that we ought to get us a mouthful to eat. Before that, we set up the tent and so we got off of the truck and followed this little bunch of people through this small little bitty patch of woods there, and we come up on a big sign it says get something to eat here, and I went up and got me two hot dogs and a big orange drink. And before that I could take irene mouthful of that food.
This whole raft.
Of people come up around me and got me to where I couldn't eat nothing up like, and I dropped my.
Big orange drink.
I did well.
Friends, they come in to move and they want so much that I could do but move well.
Well.
We come in to go through all kinds of doors and gates, and I don't know what all and I looked up over one of them and it says North Gate. And we kept on going through there, and pretty soon we come up on a young boy and he says, ticket please, And I said, friend, I don't have a ticket. I don't even know where it is that I'm going.
I did well.
He says, come out as quick as you can, and I says, I'll do it. I'll turn right around the first chancet to get.
Well.
We kept on a moving through there, and pretty soon everybody got where it was that they was a going, because they parted, and I could see pretty good, I could, and what I seen was this whole raft of people a setting on these two banks and looking at one another across this pretty little green cow pasture. Well they was, and somebody had tucked and drove white lines all over it and drove posts in it, and I.
Don't know what all.
And I looked down there and I seen five or six convicts are running up and down, and a blowing whistles they was. And then I looked down there and I seen these pretty girls are wearing these little bitty sharp dresses and a dancing around. And so I sat down and thought i'd see what it was that was gonna happen. I did, and about the time I got set down good, I looked down there and I seen thirty or forty men come running out of one end of a great big outhouse down there, they did, and everybody where I was a sitting got up and hollered, and about that time thirty or forty come running out of the other end of that outhouse, and the.
Other bank full.
They got up and hollered, and I asked.
This fellow that was setting beside of me. I says, friend, what is it that they're hollering for. Well, he whopped me on the back and he says, buddy, have a drunk. Well, I says, I believe I will have another big orange. And I got it and set back down. I got down there again. I seen that them men had got in two little bitty bunches down there. They had rail close together, and they voted. They did, They voted and elected one man apiece, and them two men come out in the middle of that cow pasture and shuk hands like they hadn't seen one another in a long time. And then a convict come over to where there was a standard and he took out a quarter and they come into odd Man right back.
They did well.
After a while, I seen what it was that there's odd Man in fault. It was that both bunches full of them men wanted this funny looking little punkin to play with. They did, and I know, friends, that they couldn't eat it because they kicked it the whole evening and it never busted. But uh, anyhow, what I was telling was that both bunch is full wonted that thing, and one bunch got it, and it made the other bunch just as mad as they could be.
And friends, I seen that evening.
The awfulest fight that I have ever seen in my life.
I did.
They would run at one another and kick one another, and throw one another down, and stomp on one another, and grind their feet in one another, and I.
Don't know what all.
And just as fast as one of them would get hurt, they'd told him.
Off and run another and on.
Well, they had done that as long as I sat there, But pretty soon this boy that had said ticket please, he come up to me and he says, friends, you're gonna have to leave because it is that you don't have a ticket. And I says, well, all right, and I got.
Up and left.
And I don't know, friends, to this day, what it was that there's a doing down there, But I have studied about it, and I think that it's some kindly of a contest or they see which bunch full of them men can take that punkin and run from one end of that cow pasture to the oven without either getting knocked down or stepping in something.
