Transcript

00:00:00.000 The Valley's wide, we came to Big Buddy and we poured it the blood For the Tennessee mayor and the Tennessee star Now we got a little baby on the cabin floor A little horse coat around the door And I love the girl with a golden man And the Tennessee star love the Tennessee mayor The Tennessee star went long and lean The color of the sun in his eyes
00:00:29.000 He had the nerve and he had the blood And they were the horse like the Tennessee star Nice day, yeah Hey Jimmy, rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated You know, I get 30, 40 times the email and letters from my Genesis show Is that right?
00:00:56.000 Yeah, we just get the Genesis program on in Austin Or Temple or San Antonio I've already got some inquiries from Austin and several from San Antonio How long do you think it'll be?
00:01:05.000 I would like to start, I would like to roll both programs into one Instead of doing two shows just so I can be on locally I want on locally somebody to pick up my show That would be great How long do you think it's going to be before we can hear you in Austin again?
00:01:17.000 I don't know.
00:01:18.000 We know it was political.
00:01:19.000 They pretty much admitted it.
00:01:20.000 Yeah.
00:01:21.000 They tried to deny it and then Mike called them up and got them admitting it on tape.
00:01:23.000 We've got that and we have to prove it.
00:01:25.000 A lot of it's actionable, but I'm not going to get blackballed the radio industry.
00:01:28.000 I'm not going to go after it.
00:01:29.000 No, I don't blame you.
00:01:32.000 Sure is.
00:01:34.000 Look, it's an 18,000 watt crap station.
00:01:39.000 Yeah.
00:01:40.000 Outside Austin.
00:01:41.000 I took that thing and I made it number one in my time slot.
00:01:43.000 You made it number one in your time slot.
00:01:44.000 Yeah, I even had to admit it in the paper, you know.
00:01:46.000 So it was political.
00:01:48.000 Oh, yeah.
00:01:48.000 The show was sold out, advertising-wise.
00:01:50.000 It was just lies.
00:01:51.000 Well, you figure they are a New World Order station, aren't they?
00:01:55.000 Who owns them?
00:01:57.000 Well, they really know.
00:01:58.000 They're small.
00:02:01.000 Only 30 newspapers and about 16 radio stations.
00:02:04.000 That's small in today's markets.
00:02:06.000 That's small in the conglomerates.
00:02:08.000 Fifty years ago, that would have been large.
00:02:12.000 But it didn't really matter.
00:02:14.000 I was burnt out, man.
00:02:15.000 Everybody that saw me, you got black circles under your eyes.
00:02:16.000 No kidding, I'm doing two radio shows a day.
00:02:18.000 Yeah.
00:02:20.000 I want to roll into one.
00:02:21.000 I, right now, I ain't getting another show in Austin, but I really want to make the station that picks me up, get my program, just pick up my national show on the satellites.
00:02:32.000 I don't have to do two shows.
00:02:34.000 Yeah, that would make it a lot easier.
00:02:36.000 Or if people don't want to pick up my 11 a.m.
00:02:38.000 till 2 p.m.
00:02:39.000 broadcast, I might do like a weekend show or something.
00:02:44.000 If I'm on the air for the weekend, I feel weird.
00:02:45.000 I'm addicted to this stuff.
00:02:47.000 I might end up...
00:02:48.000 The best chance right now is probably...
00:02:51.000 You'll probably see me on Saturday or Sunday nights in a little one- or two-hour program somewhere in Austin.
00:02:56.000 Well, that'll be better than nothing.
00:02:57.000 Well, it definitely will.
00:02:58.000 Because a lot of people don't have...
00:03:00.000 I personally don't want to go back to the two shows today.
00:03:02.000 Yeah, a lot of people don't have satellite dishes, and a lot of people don't have short waves.
00:03:06.000 Yeah.
00:03:07.000 And they're really the ones that are missing you.
00:03:09.000 We'll see.
00:03:10.000 Yeah, all the hoes come in off the satellite and just get the commercial stations to pick it up.
00:03:13.000 You have to get a commercial station or have a satellite dish yourself to pick it up.
00:03:17.000 That's what all the commercial stations have.
00:03:19.000 How do you think Limbaugh gets picked up?
00:03:21.000 Oh yeah, he goes out on satellite.
00:03:23.000 Yeah.
00:03:25.000 Well, we hope that we can hear you soon.
00:03:30.000 Well, my internet site's maxing out.
00:03:33.000 Yeah, I heard that when you was on TV Friday night.
00:03:35.000 Yeah, about 10,000 people log on and it crashes every day.
00:03:39.000 Well, you'll have to expand your capabilities.
00:03:42.000 I don't run that.
00:03:43.000 I've just got to link through to Genesis.
00:03:45.000 Okay.
00:03:47.000 Well, your demise has been greatly exaggerated.
00:03:52.000 Yeah.
00:03:54.000 All right.
00:03:55.000 Alright, back to work.
00:03:57.000 I mean, Jimmy...
00:04:03.000 Yes, sir.
00:04:04.000 I never expected to be on every day here locally.
00:04:06.000 I never expected to be number one and number two.
00:04:12.000 I mean, it's just incredible to take that and rise up through the ranks and beat all these 100,000 watt FM stations.
00:04:25.000 Yeah.
00:04:26.000 And I beat KLBJ in my time slot.
00:04:29.000 Hey, they're 100,000 watts.
00:04:31.000 No, not their AM. What are they?
00:04:32.000 AM's different from FM. Yeah, but their AM, you can hear it all standing tall.
00:04:36.000 During the day, they're not very high power at night.
00:04:39.000 They have to turn down at night.
00:04:40.000 Not like KS, what's the word, San Antonio 1200 KSTA?
00:04:44.000 No, that's KTSA.
00:04:46.000 W-O-A-I.
00:04:47.000 Oh, W-O-A-I in San Antonio.
00:04:49.000 Blowtorch up South Texas.
00:04:50.000 That's it.
00:04:51.000 Wigglesworth is on KTSA.
00:04:55.000 I was on his show.
00:04:56.000 That's good.
00:04:58.000 This is the right direction?
00:05:02.000 No, if folks want to hear me on in Austin, Texas again.
00:05:07.000 What can we do?
00:05:09.000 Well, I've already gotten calls from all the TOG stations.
00:05:14.000 It's all political.
00:05:15.000 The ratings are, the listeners are there.
00:05:17.000 It's up to people what they want.
00:05:18.000 Well, do we have to call up a certain station?
00:05:22.000 You want people to call up a certain station as they put you on?
00:05:26.000 Well, I've already been called by the stations, basically.
00:05:29.000 It might help to call them.
00:05:31.000 Except if they want to take the political wheel of putting on somebody that's, you know, seen as a loose cannon like myself.
00:05:38.000 Loose cannon!
00:05:40.000 The information we're bringing forward is becoming more and more mainstream.
00:05:43.000 In a few years, you'll hear people like me everywhere.
00:05:46.000 There you go.
00:05:47.000 Hit this.
00:05:50.000 That's right.
00:05:51.000 That's what I mean.
00:05:53.000 Yeah, your real competition will not come from the left.
00:05:56.000 No, it's...
00:05:57.000 It will be another right wing...
00:05:59.000 No, left and right don't really exist.
00:06:02.000 I know, but the liberals...
00:06:04.000 It's fun to play in that paradigm.
00:06:05.000 The liberals won't produce anybody that'll challenge you.
00:06:09.000 That's being a conservative.
00:06:11.000 There it is.
