If you want to be a part of the program, it's 800-941 Sean.
If you want to join us, Linda, before the show, she likes to poke me and irritate me and aggravate me.
So just another day.
Halloween is just a stupid holiday to me.
I know.
You say it's a liberal holiday.
It is a liberal holiday.
What do you, you know, I say this over the years, and every time I do, it becomes like a massive controversy because the idiot.
That's right.
Get in the mood.
Go ahead.
Keep going.
Don't tell your story.
The idiots in the state-run legacy media mob, they don't understand something called humor and trolling.
I troll them.
This is actually the song we should play when all the Democrats talk about the shutdown.
It's true.
It's so ominous and creepy.
No, I just think it's a stupid.
You're teaching your children to knock on individuals' doors and beg for something for free.
They're not begging.
They dressed up.
It's a quid pro quo.
I dressed up for you.
Now give me something.
You're welcome.
That's not a quid.
Okay.
Well, then you're teaching him a quid pro quo.
That's not okay, Hunter.
Joe Biden can hunter.
Hunter.
No, Hunter.
I'll call you zero experience Linda.
Oh.
There you go.
Cuts deep, bro.
What are you going to be for Halloween?
What do you mean, what am I going to be for Halloween?
I'm not going to be anything.
I'm going to be.
You're going to be an outraged conservative.
You know, I was at the football game last week, and I told you I went to a college football game.
A guy in front of me, a little bit in the, he's feeling good.
Let's put it that way.
He's got a shine on and turns around and he goes, big guy.
And he's going to Frank.
Man, you look like Sean Hannity.
He goes, I go, no way.
He goes, then he says, doesn't that guy look like the Hannity on Fox?
He's half in the bag.
All right.
The guy's pretty hammered.
Nice guy, but, you know, he's having a good time.
And I said, you know, it's so weird.
You're the second person today that said that to me.
He goes, yeah, no, it's uncanny.
You really, you know, kind of look like him.
I'm like, really?
Can't believe it.
And I said, I watched that guy's show.
I don't think I look like him.
He goes, I like his show.
And he goes, I love that guy.
I love that guy.
I said, well, good, let's take a picture because it's me.
And then I get the usual.
I got this yesterday at the town hall with Jack Chittorelli.
I thought Jack did great last night.
He did.
He did really good.
It was a great crowd, though.
The crowd was very good.
The crowd was awesome.
They were fun.
I love doing audience shows.
I just love, I'm such a ham.
Next week, we got the Patriot Awards.
You did a whole warm-up.
There was like a hype show before the TV show.
Oh, I do that for every audience show.
I do that.
That's great.
It's like another job.
And I love it.
Next Thursday is the Patriot Awards.
And I must have done okay last year because they invited me back to be the MC again this year.
What are you wearing?
That's actually something that was negotiated.
And let's just say I lost most of the negotiations.
That's about right.
Well, they put me in a Tux last year.
I don't know.
I remember.
I can't stand that.
You were so excited about it.
No, I was not.
And this year, I agreed to the Tux jacket again, except a white one.
Oh, okay.
But I'm changing the tie.
Oh, geez.
What color is the tie?
I don't like bow ties.
Oh, yeah.
No, definitely not.
There's only one person that can wear bow ties, and it's not you.
Who?
Trafalgar.
Well, I thought you were going to say Trump.
Trump actually looks good in a ton.
No, he needs a long tie.
He's too tall.
Well, you know, his tie line are extra long.
Long before he ever became president, I'd go to Trump Tower.
I'd interview him.
He'd always walk me down.
I mean, at the time, I'm just a stupid talk show host.
And he'd walk me down, and there was a Trump merch shop right down there in the lobby of Trump Tower.
And he'd go, pick out any ones you want.
I said, I'm okay.
I'm good.
No, he goes, they're extra long.
You're going to like them.
And he really loved his tie collection.
And then I wouldn't pick anything because I feel stupid.
And I give him the red one, the blue one, the pink one, the blah, blah, blah.
And he just like filled bags full.
I could walk out with 15 bags of swag.
And he wasn't president.
So I went to the White House that day that I interviewed him the first time when he just got back in office.
And the Monica Lewinsky room, and that is forever going to be named the Monica Lewinsky room by me, is basically the Trump swag room.
I mean, they got everything in there, even a Trump Bible.
And I said, I want one.
And he likes it.
Anyway, we got a lot of news.
That was a nice ending to that story.
Anyway, Katie is saying to me, if people want to call in and agree with me, I think you're indoctrinating kids to be liberals.
I think they should call in and tell us what their Halloween costume is.
No, I don't think they should talk about the colour.
Are you wearing a costume?
Absolutely not.
I'm a grown-up.
But, you know, someone's going to be a little bit more.
Okay, well, why are you asking me what I'm wearing if you're a grown-up and you don't wear one?
I'm more grown-up than you.
I would think being in costume would be something you'd be excited about.
And those days are.
I would put something on my face and then be able to walk around and not be identified.
That might be, you know, a little anonymity for five minutes of my life wouldn't be bad after 30 years on television, which, by the way, I'm very grateful for.
I'm not complaining.
You're some hair gel and a wine glass away from being Gavin Newsom.
Oh, just you shush.
I don't want to hear it out of your head.
Honestly, you could wear a t-shirt that says French laundry and carry a bottle of wine.
Okay.
Who's the best baseball player in the history of baseball?
Is it not Otani?
How great is he?
Yeah, he's the modern-day babe, Ruth.
He is.
Unbelievable talent.
They're still going to lose to the Toronto Blue Jays.
I think they're going to.
Well, it depends.
The Blue Jays hitting is hot and cold.
There's like no in-between.
No, it's mostly hot.
It's mostly hot.
Lately, it's been hot.
But the game that Otani pitched, this is the day after he hit, what, two home runs and two doubles.
Two home runs was on base nine times.
Nine times.
Well, because then they intentionally walked him a million.
That game was so long.
18 innings.
It started before your show started and ended at 1:30 in the morning.
No, it ended at 2:45.
No way.
It ended during your replay.
It almost went past your replay.
Great.
Because every time, you know, big sporting events on, it hurts my ratings.
That sucks.
By the way, nobody should tune away from my show.
Nobody's watching the Blue Jays.
Come on.
I just don't want the Blue Jays to win.
I'd rather the Dodgers won.
Yeah, well, they're up against it.
Although, I'm going to say something.
I really love Vladimir Guerro Jr.
I love him.
I think he's just a great human being.
He seems like a great human being.
I don't know.
Remember his dad?
I remember his dad.
I'll swing at everything.
No, I'll tell you about his dad.
So I take my young son to a game, and Vladimir Guerrero's up and playing the Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
So the oddest circumstances.
So anyway, the Yankees doctor was a fan of mine.
He literally comes over, sits down next to me.
10 seconds later, a line drive foul ball comes racing.
You know, I see it in the corner of my eye, and I put my hand out right onto my son's eye socket.
I'm talking about a hardcore line drive here.
He goes, bam, smash down, you know, he wasn't knocked out, but I'm like, what just happened?
Now, thank God the doctor was there.
He was great.
What I didn't, I learned something, and all stadiums have this, is this happens at baseball games.
You know, you're talking to your friend, you're talking, you know, saying hello to somebody, foul ball.
You know, people get hit with foul balls.
Line drive by ball.
You were sitting near the, were you sitting close to the field?
I was, well, no, I was up a little bit, but imagine if you know that most, they have netting.
Yeah, they have the netting just because of that.
Okay, so just past the netting is where I was sitting, except up maybe 25 rows or so.
Great.
I thought they were great seats on the first baseline.
And he gets hit and goes straight down.
I'm like, oh, my gosh, this is bad.
But then I would say within seven seconds, a group of Yankees, they must be positioned all throughout the stadium.
Like they came out, they're watching for this and they're ready to help people, which is, I think, really cool on their part.
When you buy a ticket, you're taking the risk of going to the stadium.
I would never, I'm not a Sioux person.
And anyway, the doctor was there.
It took a while.
We got him up.
They take him to a room.
They examine him.
And, you know, they say, we think everything's okay, but you really got to go get an MRI.
This is in inning two that this happens.
And, you know, we take him to the doctor.
He gets a baseball sign by Vladimir Guerrero.
He goes, well, what Yankee would you like to have signed?
Derek Jeter.
He asked for Derek Jeter.
They handed him swag galore.
And I think he was happy that he got hit.
Now, the cool other thing that happened, because this is so scary as a parent, that, you know, the foul ball hits him.
Somebody else gets the foul ball.
As he's walking out, whoever had the foul ball hands it to him.
I thought that was pretty cool.
That's a legitimate good person.
That's a good person.
I think half the people would have kept that ball.
Oh, did you see?
You saw the fight.
Where was that fight over the Philadelphia?
Oh, my gosh.
Over the foul ball.
That was crazy.
That was a scary day in my life.
Went to the doctor.
Thank God.
I mean, you could have busted his eye socket.
I mean, it was a real hardcore line drive.
And when he also, when he got up, he got a standing up.
Like everybody around stood up.
They saw what had happened.
And it was very cool.
They don't show all that on TV, nor should they, by the way.
I don't think they should.
For the privacy of the person that gets hit, that's not fair, but they didn't.
And they handled it spectacularly.
And I remember calling Randy Levine and telling him, he's with the Yankees and it was a friend of mine, you know, how great they were and how great the doctor was and how great the people were.
And, you know, I was very, very thankful and appreciative of everything.
There's nothing that baseball players fear more than hitting a ball and having a line.
They don't want that.
No, you're right.
Baseball players don't want that.
They don't.
they care about their fans they care about now we subsequently went back you know to more games The last time the Yankees won the World Series, my son's birthday is in November.
So usually I took him to the game.
Mariana or Rivera closed it out.
They won the World Series at Yankee Stadium.
And so I took him back to another game.
But I was one of them.
You know that?
You want me to tell him the break of his leg story, skiing?
Yeah, raising children.
And so giving me the vapors like liberals seeing Donald Trump.
But Halloween's a BS holiday.
I don't know how I got distracted.
It just is.
You distracted yourself.
Don't blame us.
Well, you know, I know you love sports, so you're making me talk about sports.
And I can, and then don't watch Monday Night Football.
What you can do is DVR my show and watch it right during it, you know, at the same time.
You can actually watch two shows at once if you have technology.
You know how to use it.
Anyway, what was I saying?
Oh, Halloween.
Halloween.
What are we teaching our kids to do?
To dress up like a witch?
A sorcerer?
Telling them to dress up like something bigger.
My son, my youngest son, is dressing up as Saquon Barkley.
Okay, that's actually cool.
I like that.
He's doing the whole thing.
He's got all the things, and he's going out with a bunch of his little buddies.
What are you dressing as?
Me on an Amtrak train during the big trick-or-treating.
That's scary.
It is scary.
That's the scary.
Are you going to put the fake blood on?
But what are you teaching your kids?
You're teaching your kids to knock on doors.
Tea cups rock and you should ask and ask for free stuff.
You're indoctrinating them into being a liberal.
Now, I'm going to pay it off now because I don't really feel like reading 400 articles by the time I get off the air today.
Sean Hannity thinks that Halloween is a liberal holiday because you're asking kids to knock on doors and beg for free Adam Schiff.
But that's what you're doing.
But it's not.
You have completely convoluted the concept.
And then, okay, I got dressed up for you.
Well, let me tell you what the night is going to be like for most parents in America if their kids go trick-or-treating and get all that crap because it's all crap.
It is crap.
They're going to be on a bunch of.
There's also those houses.
Good luck getting it.
They're going to do apples.
Those are fun houses.
Or pencils.
Okay, you can't eat an apple from a train.
I'm just saying that sucks.
What do you kid wants to do?
Remember, when I was a kid, we had to worry people would put a freaking razor blade in there.
Now you have to worry that they're doctoring it with fentanyl.
No, I'll buy my kids candy if I want to buy my kids candy.
I don't want them eating that crowd.
Well, you go to the house that you know with the people you know in the group that you know.
My kids, they're so healthy.
I mean, you talk about health, wellness, fitness.
My kids don't eat it either.
It's just the experience.
You dress up and you run around.
You're teaching them to beg for something for free.
No, I'm teaching him to get what he deserves because he's all dressed up and he looks good.
All right.
I will take some calls on this for kicks and giggles, if you want to call it.
All right.
I will.
There you go.
Because my phone's blowing up.
800-941, Sean, to agree with Linda.
We can't wait to hear from you.
Okay.
Stop begging for compliments.
I mean, stop affirming.
It's different.
All right.
25 now to the top of the hour.
800-941-Sean is our program.
I've paid this off so many times in the past about Halloween, Linda.
I'm joking.
But people still believe me.
Remember the articles that came out years gone by?
Hannity says Halloween is a liberal holiday and we're turning kids into socialists because we're teaching them to beg for free stuff.
There is a certain amount of truth to it.
You know, that's why it's plausible.
Oh my gosh, look at this.
Disagrees, disagrees, disagree.
Oh, my gosh.
Why is something like this?
I mean, we have other news today that I should be talking about.
You shouldn't.
It's Friday.
Give everybody a break.
The FBI has foiled a Halloween terrorist plot.
God bless, you know, Cash Patel and Dan Bongino, you know, stopped a Halloween terror attack planned for this weekend.
This morning, the FBI thwarted terrorists arrested multiple subjects in Michigan, allegedly plotting a terror attack over this weekend.
I mean, Joe, you know, thanks, Joe, and Kamala.
Oh, the borders are closed.
The borders are closed.
The border's secure.
Borders are closed.
The border's secure.
You know, meanwhile, we're showing video after video of them flat out freaking lying to us.
Now, I was talking about my kids.
I didn't care what they did.
There's nothing, to be very honest, I can say it now.
I wouldn't say it when they were young because they would listen to the show at moments I never knew.
And so I would say I would act madder than I was, but when they lied to me about it, it was never what they did.
It was never that bad, never nearly as bad as what I did.
I'm like, this is, you know, but I'd act like I was mad.
You know, and the funniest thing is my son is really good at debating.
And he would, I would sit back and he'd be like, but dad, he'd lay out his case.
And I'd be like, in my head, I'm going, man, that's good.
I'm impressed.
But I'd have to act like I was mad.
I mean, I don't know.
I was not a big yeller.
Stangy, were you a yeller?
No, I was never a yeller.
My wife is the disciplinarian.
You know me.
I'm the laid-back.
No, I was always the, well, you were worse than me.
Let's be honest in terms of, you know.
You actually, I remember Halloween back in the day.
I had some fun even when I worked for you.
What do we do?
I don't remember.
Remember when since 1992?
Yeah.
So remember when they used to shut down Buckhead in Atlanta and all the bars on Halloween?
Yeah.
Didn't we go to that?
Weren't you in that crew with a bunch of guys with us?
Dressed up?
No, no, no.
You weren't dressed up.
But I remember I went as Fred Goldman one year.
Did you really?
I think I remember that actually.
Looking back, it was.
We'd go to the Raccoon Lounge.
Yeah, yeah, right.
What was that seafood place we'd hang out?
Oh, God.
The Steamhouse Lounge.
The Steamhouse Lounge.
Yeah, that's right.
But the Raccoon Lounge.
I remember going there and Scott Farrell was, all right, give me the money, give me the money.
He was a talented broadcast.
Whatever happened for us.
I'm sorry.
Could you repeat that?
You're the man.
I'm the man.
The guy was like.
That's really the way he talks.
I worked with him for it, right?
Yeah, he's like a sports wolfman jack.
That's exactly right.
But he was very talented.
I thought he was a really talented broadcaster.
Whatever happened to him?
I don't know.
I remember L.A., I think he went to Westwood, and I worked with him when I worked with Lykus.
He was in that building.
Six minutes after that.
Thank you for tuning into the Tom Liker show.
This is unlike any other radio programs.
This is not a right-wing wacko or a convicted felon.
No!
I am your host, 1-800-5800-TOM.
We should have that Metallica song.
Yeah, Sandman.
That's what it is.
All right, I shouldn't do this, but first let me remind you how you can save money because it was suffering from the Biden-Harris, you know, economic hangover.
And now we have a government shutdown, and you need to save money.
Anywhere you can save money and never sacrifice service, that's just basic, simple, common sense.
Apply it.
You can make the switch to Pure Talk, my cell phone provider, a veteran-owned company, and it takes minutes.
It's quick.
It's simple.
It's fast.
It's easy.
They use the same cell towers, the same 5G network as the big companies, ATT, Verizon, and T-Mobile.
None of these big companies are going to give you unlimited talk, unlimited text, and plenty of data for $25 a month.
And you're supporting a company that supports your values.
Make the switch, save the money for the exact same service.
Common sense.
Dial pound 250, say the keyword save now.
And if you do it now, you save an additional 50% off the first month.
I know what you're doing in there.
You're stacking these calls.
There's no way everybody is calling in saying they disagree with me on Halloween.
There's no way.
I don't believe that.
Scott in Michigan.
Scott, hi.
Happy Friday.
Hey, Sean.
How are you?
Why are you so interested in this?
I mean, we've got important issues.
The president did the greatest deal with China this week, and you want to talk about Halloween.
Oh, you make me smile, man.
That's what it is.
Because raising kids is so much about repetition.
Did you fake it to like when your kids did stuff with, you know?
Thank you over and over.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, 200 times in one night.
And that's how you instill that repetition now.
You make them say thank you for what?
Giving you dinner?
Thank you for putting your clothes on?
Thank you for, you know, putting your bike in the garage, which I never did as a kid.
No, I mean, every elderly person that opens that doors and sees these little kids, so much joy in their heart, and these kids saying thank you as they walk away with another, looking in their back, like, what did I get?
And yeah, it's thank you over and over.
So you may, so you go, how old are your kids?
Do you go trick-or-treating with them?
We walk behind.
Okay.
And so now, do you only go to homes that you know, people that you trust?
Because I remember when I was young and did trick-or-treating, I'd go everywhere.
I mean, I loaded up with as much free crap as I could.
I mean, I just, I was on a sugar high for months after Halloween.
I still had candy.
And God forbid, if I got big butterfingers, I'd eat them that same day.
I'd walk away from the house.
They give you a big butterfinger.
I love those candies.
So good.
Anyway, but you tell your kids to say thank you.
Do you make sure they say thank you?
I can usually hear them, and they do.
They do.
Now, do you go to homes of people you don't know and let them trick-or-treat?
I mean, I don't know everybody.
I know the neighborhood, so.
I wouldn't let them go to a stranger's house.
I think the world is too messed up.
It's unfortunate.
I mean, we went everywhere.
My parents didn't even know where it was.
And by the way, I dressed as the same thing every year.
A bum.
It's easy to dress as a bum.
Wear a flannel shirt, sweatshirt.
It starts getting a little cold.
And then I take a cork, and you burn the cork, and then you put all the dirt on your face.
Oh, yeah, that's it.
I got one of my sons, a football player, and his best buddy's a football, so they're going to be chasing each other around all night long, getting candy.
I love that.
Oh, that's great.
I love that.
Well, thank God they thwarted this terror attack in your home state of Michigan.
Oh, my God.
Way to kill the vibe, Sean.
Jesus Lou.
We're doing a Halloween.
I gave him good advice.
I've said, thank God you don't have to worry.
They thwarted a real terror attack this weekend.
God bless us.
We're talking about children being kind and saying thank you.
Well, thank God we didn't get terror addresses.
You should get dressed up as a bottle of vodka.
Oh, my word.
Well, if they gave out free little bottles like they give you out an airplane, I might take one.
Randy in South Carolina.
What's up, Randy?
How are you?
Great, Sean.
How are you doing today?
I'm good.
Glad you call.
Yeah, well, I'm going to just relay a quick little story.
My mother-in-law was 86.
She was a post-war toddler, little kid, going trick-or-treating.
They had a neighbor lady.
When they'd go to their house, she would give the kids potatoes.
And my mother-in-law said her and her siblings, there's about eight of them, they're always disappointed expecting candy.
But the next night, now that she's older, she realizes what was happening.
The next night, they would always have mashed potatoes with their meal, which they couldn't afford otherwise.
And that this neighbor lady was really helping feed the children and their families in the neighborhood for trick-or-after trick-or-treat.
And I just kind of thought it's a nice thing as we're going through all the stuff we're going through, the government and the silliness of it right now.
Boy, you're dropping candy bars into a bag tonight.
Maybe you drop a box of mac and cheese or a can of corn or a can of green beans into some family's bag.
You never know the difference it's going to make, right?
You know, I will say this.
Last night, I was coming back from New Jersey, and I stopped at a convenience store.
I like sunflower seats.
I like David sunflower seats, right?
So I said, Stag, I said, I had a driver.
Fox gave me a driver, which is pretty cool.
I'm not a primadon.
I drive myself.
I drive my little Tesla, and that only goes 0 to 60 in 1.9 seconds and has 10,024 horsepower, and it's the fastest car.
It beats a Bugatti, a Z06, a Porsche, and a Ferrari.
And you can see it online.
Anyway, so I stopped there.
And outside the convenience shop was a guy, and he asked me for money.
And I don't just give the money, but I always give money, but I always talk to the person.
I said to the guy, let me ask you a question.
I said, if you're going to waste my money and go in there and buy booze, I'm not giving you money.
Do you drink?
He goes, no, sir, I don't drink.
I said, okay.
You do drugs?
I do.
I said, okay, what drugs are you using?
He goes, I smoke a lot of weed.
I said, okay.
You have a place to live?
He said, I got a little studio.
Yeah, I live in a little studio basement apartment.
I said, okay.
I said, and we talked about, you know, maybe getting off the weed and maybe, you know, getting a good job and building his life back.
Then I asked him if he believed in Jesus.
He did.
He said, I do.
I said, ask Jesus to help you get off the weed and help you find a good job.
You know, turn your life around a little bit.
And I gave him 20 bucks, went on my way.
That's my do-good story yesterday.
I feel sorry for people that have to live like that.
I asked him how old he was.
56 years old.
It's terrible.
Randy, thank you, man.
Appreciate it.
That's nice to give free stuff to people, you know, to give food to families in need.
Bah, humbug.
It's liberalism.
It's wrong with you.
You know what?
You can't stand out for anything.
No, I'm giving money to my food pantry next week if they need it.
And if they don't need it where I live, pretty affluent area.
But if they need it, they're getting it.
Whatever they need.
I'll find a local town that needs it.
John in Indiana.
What's up, John?
How are you?
Sean, what's going on?
I'm just wasting an hour of radio here, but I'm having the time of my life.
It's a liberal holiday, right?
You're teaching your kids to be a little socialist.
So, yeah.
So first of all, Sean, great shout out to a wonderful girl, Katie.
She's amazing.
Oh, my God, the sucking up to the call screener.
Stop.
Go ahead.
Tell Sean why one day out of the year, you should be able to dress up as anybody you want.
You can be anybody for one day, Sean.
All right, I want to be Trump for a day, and I want all the powers associated with it.
Okay, dress up like that.
But here, here's my desk, okay?
I just celebrated my 40th anniversary with my wife.
Oh, happy anniversary.
That's awesome, man.
So 40 years, and she loved being the Statue of Liberty.
And Linda, you can help him with this because he won't get it.
But she wanted to be the Statue of Liberty.
She's an artist, so it took her a month to put her outfit together.
And she said, so, John, what are you going to be?
And I said, Tammy, I don't know.
I'll figure it out.
So I kept procrastinating, kept progressing.
Finally, the day came.
She has got the most beautiful Statue of Liberty costume, and I haven't figured out what I'm doing yet.
And so she's like, you have Tim.
I'm telling you, dress is a bum.
Take out a flannel shirt, you know, old battered-up jeans, and take a cork and burn it, let it cool down a little bit, then put all the dirt on your face, and you're a bum.
I had a better idea.
So I pour out the big box of all the costumes, and immediately on the floor, I know exactly where I'm going to be.
There on the floor, Sean, was a pink tutu, a wand, and a beautiful crown.
I said, honey, just stand in front in the middle of the room.
I'm coming down.
I came down, dressed up with the pink tutu, the crown, the wand.
I walked around her four times.
Linda, what was I?
A drag queen.
A fairy.
You were granting all her wishes to give her the powers.
I was the Staten Island fairy, Linda.
You are brilliant.
Yeah.
We won three.
You said you put on like a, you know, it sounded like you were dressing up and drag.
I was going to tell you, you could be the torch.
Yeah, exactly.
Go be the torch to your bride.
But still, that's an awesome idea.
Congratulations.
40 years of marriage.
God bless you and your wife.
You do whatever the hell you want.
You've earned it.
I don't care what you do.
But I will tell you, your vision of the Staten Island Fairy is better than it is because I used to take it every day.
Ann is in Texas.
God bless Texas, Anne.
What do you think of this?
I think you're teaching kids to beg for free stuff.
Oh, it's totally the opposite.
I find places when my daughter was little.
Now I have grandchildren.
But when they were little, we tried to find some place where there was like a little fair, a bouncy house.
So we'd let all the kids dress up and then we took them kind of out to play.
I remember going through one that had a bunch of blinking lights and I got Flickr Vertigo.
That's hilarious.
I never heard of Flickr Vertigo.
Oh, yeah.
The first time I got it was in a helicopter looking up through the rotor blades.
But you, wherever your body is oriented, that is where your brain says is upright and straight.
So if you have a foot picked up, you're just going to wobble around and it takes hours to go away.
Well, I'm glad you enjoy the holiday.
Let's see if the liberal media writes, Hannity says it's a socialist holiday.
I want to see that.
It's so stupid.
And God bless you.
I love what you're doing.
Ken in Florida, real quick.
Well, Sean, two things.
I was back in the day, my daughter was born today, 36 years old.
I just called her and wish her a happy birthday.
Well, you asked God for something for free.
You got it.
Now you got to take care of it for the rest of your life.
So boy, but she's the, I mean, she's my youngest, okay, Johnny Renee Larson.
She's in Liberty County, Georgia, right now.
She's the mother of my one and only granddaughter.
But here's the thing you made me flashback to.
When you were talking about Buckhead, I'm sitting there going, wait a minute, I was already in Atlanta at the time living in Gwinnett.
And you and I remember when you and Royal Marshall and Linda Skelt and Borts would always go at each other about different stuff.
Borts and I are best friends.
He complained that I didn't call him enough recently, so I wrote him.
I said, what are you whining about?
And I tried to get Borts back on full time.
Ken, thank you.
All right, Rick, Florida, real quick.
Yes, sir.
How is one night a year an indoctrination?
Sorry, you're teaching kids to beg for something for free.
That's not an indoctrination.
That's like saying Hanukkah's indoctrinating me into Judaism.
