Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was looking for Hot Buns 93, but 94 will do too. He knows they're of age then. Yeah, that's legal. All right, Kevin usually does prank calls on Fridays with the forms that you guys fill out at krbe.com. Ford slash prank call requests. Fill out the form, get somebody in your life pranked and it all plays out right here on the Rula show with Eric. But Wednesday we reserve it for the telescammers because those phones never stop ringing. And don't forget, guys, if you're just waking up and tuning in, it's April Fool's Day. People are letting us know, you know, the ones of old that we pulled one over on you, but we're done with those days. The old days, but now with lawyers and the $20 bills going out of rotation. Oh man, those are the old days. Let it if that happened here. Oh man, we let it. We went on the air straight faced for like the whole show. Two thousand, four or five. Remember when the $10 bills started circulating to new $10 bills? Well, the old ones don't expire, but we were saying that the $20 bills are going to come in and the old ones will expire. And people are calling us like, we have these envelopes from our deceased grandma that we haven't opened yet. Should we open them? And then the Secret Service came to our, well, we were left because we leave. And then in the afternoon, the Secret Service came to our station, talked to the bosses. They were not happy with us. And then we did the Sam Houston toll road prank where we had one of our colleagues in sales act like he was like some authority from the toll road telling everybody that now the easy tag is going to scan every heartbeat in the car. No matter what. Even if it's like a canary or a dog, you're going to get charged $1.25 for every heartbeat and people are like, that's ridiculous. It's going to be like $9 on one. Oh, well, that's all. That means my anniversary is coming up. April 4th is when I started with you guys in 2000. Like officially? I mean, I was always working, but I moved down to Houston. I didn't realize it was April 4. Because it was like three days after because you did that bit. Because I remember we got press all over. Back then you wanted to get TV coverage and news coverage and stuff. Now people just get mad. So you're behind the $20 bill. You're behind all that. Are you behind the pennies too? Are you the reason why we don't do pennies anymore? That's actually a real story. I hate pennies. But people are texting us with the ones they remember the most. We did the cat sound effect. We did the cat with the balloon. Remember we tied balloons to a cat and it flew over. I thought it was we tied them to Alan. We did that too. We did lots of balloons. Kevin was like running around. He's actually straight and has a girlfriend that's mad about being hidden. Rula was in Playboy. I was going to be a Playboy but only topless because it kept upping the money when I kept saying no. And then my sister called in and she was so mad. She's like are you for real? Are you for real? Oh, okay. But then what's today's? Nothing. We don't do anything. We're just telling everyone we're not doing anything because we don't want to get in trouble anymore. Maybe that's how we screw with you. Maybe. Something's coming up. I don't know. After the hot dog hot diggity dog song by the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Yeah, that's coming up next. We just play all. Yeah. Everyone's looking for closure. That is actually not a prank. We do that every Wednesday. You contact us at KRBE.com. Somebody ghosted you or fell out of your life or you're trying to contact them and they want nothing to do to you. And you don't know why Eric finds them. And we get them on the phone and we reunite you guys. This one's a relationship. Okay. So we'll see how it plays out next on The Relish Show with Eric and KRBE. Closure time. One last call to your ex. Two in this relationship. Closure time. Get them on the hotline. And this before it begins. And that, my friend, is what they call closure. All right. Within the confines of closure. Because you know you can hear the same time you want on the phone. I'm going to do a special birthday shout out because one of our listeners named Paul is on the way to school. Paul? His mom, Isabel, is a huge fan of this show. Specifically me also. I've met her before. She's such a sweet lady. And it's her birthday today. So she's an April Fool's baby. That's cool. April 1st baby. Isabel, we'd love you right back. Thank you for raising Paul right on The Relish Show with Eric. You have a happy, happy birthday to all the April Fool's babies. Don't be a fool. Don't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. Can't get fooled again. All right, y'all reach out to us at KRBE.com or really straight up DM Eric at producer Eric, where you will also see the April Fool's joke played on us this morning with 1 million balloons bouncing around. They're putting good... Stop popping them! Heaven! And then gun shots or balloons over here. I don't understand why Sam's upset about this. That's like you're used to that sound at your house. It's still... Ah! You're like, oh, this is Tuesday. I'm not even jumping anymore when they pop. I'm like, oh, okay, I just popped. All right, so here's how closure works. You're going to reach out to us. Tell us what the situation is. Eric will get to work on that. The person that has ghosted you will not ghost him. And then we'll connect you guys on the phone. But first let's find out what the problem is. And we got Michael standing by. Good morning, Michael. Hey, good morning. Thanks for having me. Hi, Michael. Welcome to the Rula Show with Eric. With Eric. With Eric. All right, so Michael, obviously we know it's closure. You need closure from someone. Give us the scoop. What's going on? After about two months of consistently communicating and seeing each other every week, I just got ghosted. So we had a really good dinner and she opened up about a bad past relationship. But she said she was ready to date again. I'm just really confused. Nothing bad happened. We had a great night and then I just haven't heard from her in weeks. Okay, wait, what's her name? Her name's Claire. Okay. So as we're two months of dating, this last dinner that you guys had is where she was saying to you about the bad relationship. And then... I mean, she never brought that up in the two months about her bad relationship ever. She had mentioned before that she was slowly re-entering the dating world, but I really felt like we had a special connection and there was something between us. Can I ask how you guys met? The internet. Another round of that. Yeah, absolutely. That's what we do now. Okay, so, you know, she didn't answer any of your calls, but that's why people come to us as you know Michael because she won't take your calls, but she'll take Eric's. And I have her listening in. I never told her you're the one that's calling. So she has no idea until, well, I mean, she's hearing it. So she knows now, but she did not know until she heard your voice with Rula and myself. And before we get her on, let me ask you one last question because I always have to ask this. Let's be real, Michael. Is there anything that you think could have happened on that last dinner date that you maybe weren't aware of that turned her off and that's why she ghosted you? I've been wracking my brain. I don't think there's anything. We had a great night. Okay. Did you pay for the meal? Definitely. Doesn't it in your teeth? All right. Bad breath. Okay, we'll find out. There we go. Hi, Claire. Welcome to the Rula Show with Eric on 104.1 K. RBE. Thanks for being here today. Thank you for having me. Thanks for joining us. And say hi to Michael. Hi, Michael. Hey, Claire. The first question, Claire, is why did you ghost him? Yeah, just give him the answers he's looking for. So I'm going to be completely transparent. My last relationship completely wiped me out. Emotionally, he was cheating. There was some abuse mentally. I have a lot of trauma that I'm fighting. So, you know, I thought I was healed enough to date, but Michael's a great guy, right? He treated me exceptionally well. That actually kind of triggered me. Really? Triggered a fear. Wait, wait, wait. Being treated well by a good guy triggered you because of a bad guy? Wow. In a bad place? I feel like you're judging me. No, no, no. I'm sorry. I don't mean that way. I'm just, that's really... I never heard that. I would think for you, you'd be like, oh my God, I didn't know it could be so great. You'd like it then. But for you, it triggered you in a negative way. I don't understand what the process is on that. Well, because I'm scared that, you know, like what if this falls apart too? I'm exhausted emotionally. You guys have to understand that. I went through a lot in my last relationship. We were together for 10 years. Wow. That's a long time. I'm just, I'm scared. Honestly, it's not Mike. It's just, I don't think I'm ready. I mean, I need therapy. I really do. Yeah. I really don't understand why you would start dating again if you didn't feel like you were ready. I feel like I'm being punished. You just disappeared. Yeah. Why don't you just communicate that to him, Claire? You could have said to him, look, you know, I, you're, I'm newly dating. Well, I mean, it sounds cliche. It's not you. It's me. Well, that's true. But is that, was that your thought behind it, Claire? Of not telling him and just ghosting? Look, I just didn't want to have that, that conversation. You know, an emotional conversation is a lot for me right now. And I honestly don't have the capacity to invest in someone new. And to clarify, Michael, I think that she, she said that when she met you, she thought she was ready to date. But as she dated you, she realized she's not ready to date, even though it's not, you're not a great guy. Yeah, I don't understand. I'm just being punished for being the good guy after the bad guy. If Claire's not ready yet, you can't make somebody, you know, be ready. It's gotta be on her timeline. Claire, does this mean like, say you feel better three months down the line, would you try and contact Michael again? Or is this like, I'm completely done. I just, I didn't mean time. Yeah, I just feel like I've already wasted his time enough. Like, and I'm not trying to put the blame on him, but he's kind of making me feel like I've already wasted his time enough. So I just, I think he deserves the best, you know what I mean? So. Well, listen, what I'm hearing you say, Claire and Michael, I hope you're hearing this as well is for you, Michael, it stinks to be ghosted. It stinks to think you had something good. And it stinks to think you're being punished for being a good guy. But the points that she's making is telling you, you don't want her right now. You don't want this version of her. She's not the best version of herself she can give you. And it might lead to a lot of turmoil. And she's just giving you the truth. She is absolutely not ready to share herself with anybody else. Got a respect to buddy. Yeah, I'm definitely hearing you and I appreciate you finally communicating that. It's not something that I did wrong. It's just something you're going through. Yeah, I really do appreciate you understanding that. And I'm sorry. I really am. Good luck on finding a girl who you deserve and deserves you. That sounds nice. I think, I mean, like you can't, can't have hard feelings about that, Michael. She's being honest and I appreciate her taking Eric's call. At least you got some closure. Okay. Sorry, Michael. All right. Well, my number will be the same if you change your mind. I'm not going to change that. Leave the door open for you, Claire. But she told you don't. Yeah, but still. Anything can happen. Anything can happen. Y'all let us know. Claire, thanks for taking the call. Michael, thanks for coming to our show. Y'all take care. Good luck. Thank you. Thank you for having me. Take care, guys. Yeah, it sucks. She should have just told him she's not ready. Well, she didn't know. You gotta put your, you know, whether they say dip your toe in the water type of thing. Yeah, but now that she ghosted him, she was like, yeah, I'm just not ready. I feel like laddies with us because he does rapid fire with us and hangs out 30 minutes from now, rapid fire quiz is on. Lighting came in early with some donuts. Yeah. How would you feel if you're dating someone that like, yeah, it was great, but I guess I'm not ready. You took proof to me. Is it you? Is it me? I don't know. That's the guy that sounded like he was just, what's that, bro? Yeah, so relax. It sounded lame. I don't know. That's probably the reason why I didn't want to tell him that. I just did. I'm sorry, Michael. She just made it all up. She just didn't like him. Yeah. What? I don't know how to have that. Tell me the truth. I don't. What's the thing that happened was, I don't like you. What happened was, you are not attractive. Yeah. What you're the hemlai. I'm like, yeah. Yes. I feel better about myself. Yes. And that's, that's a nice thing. In my dating days. I grow to nails and it just is not going to work out. No, in my dating days, I did have somebody tell me that their ex-girlfriend came back to them and they want to give another chance. And I was like, oh, that sucks. Because I was like really looking forward to this date. And the guy calls me the day before the date. He asked me out days before and I was like, oh, cool. Tomorrow I have a date. Yeah. I just want to let you know that my ex-girlfriend's back and she really wants to try again. Okay. But would you rather hear that? Yeah. I mean, I couldn't say I'm washing my hair. But I'm like, okay. So like we're not going out then tomorrow? It's like, are we not going out tomorrow then? No, sorry. They end up together. No. She's just trying to get a free meal. But at least you did that because what if you started dating and then he keeps thinking about the ex. Right. Cheats on you or something. I definitely had dated a guy that had some ex-girlfriend that kept lingering. And I was like, so what's happening here now? Okay. No. Is that a woman move or do men do that too? Or I feel like women like, like I always say to guys, if you, if the girl dumps you and you still have a thing for them, go make, let them know that you're dating other people. And then they always come back. Yeah. Guys do that too. You always want what you can't have. But guys also call it dating when a girl is like, wait, you're dating me, right? No, I'm dating. What does that mean? What's your definition of dating exactly? You have to draw the lines in the sand of definitions. What does this mean? Exclusive or not exclusive. I mean, I'm not dating me, but also dating her because if you're dating me, I thought that we're dating. Yeah, we're dating. I'm dating around. No, no, no. What are you doing? What are you doing? Am I competing with other people? I need to know. Are you making out with me and then making out with somebody else two hours later? Are you dating, or are you looking for like the one? I mean, you're always looking for the one, right? Or are you just like, I just want to know. The one right now. The one right now. But I'm definitely a lingerer for sure because you never know when that thing's going to fall apart. You know, and you just come run on up. Hey, you need a beer at the Toyota Center? Yeah, when that thing falls apart. Yeah, remember, six years ago. Hey, I opened the beer for you. That was great. I'm still here. Yeah, but I mean, you're looking for the one right now, I guess. I don't know, you know. Yeah, until they come around, you never know what you want, right? Yeah, I just didn't know if like it's harder as you get older. Oh, no, it's easy. Just swipe right, dude. Just swipe right, man. Just do all of them. You know what I'm saying? Then finally one's going to swipe right on you. But you get sick of dating, like telling the same stories about your life. Like, I don't want to. Eric hates this. Eric hates people, by the way, Ladi. Eric hates people. I've known him long enough to say how many times he says this. You have to tell the same story about yourself. Well, it's just because my story's sad. Like, hey, my parents are dead. You know, I got to tell that story. Yeah, I'll say that the first time you meet somebody. But they're going to ask about your family and their friends. I'll start to see. What you know what I mean? You got to talk about all that crap. So how you doing today? Well, my parents are dead. Yeah, that's a... Eventually it's going to happen. So you got to tell the story. Yeah, I have a fun life. I'm ready to tell stories, man. I'm all about it. That's a thing for me. Your parents are live, right? Yeah. See, you're... But Eric, have you ever seen those girls who are becoming on the show? Sing, I went on a date with this guy who came right out and just told me his parents are dead. He was real Debbie Downer. That's gonna be you. I feel like you have, like, mommy and daddy issues. They're going to ask you sometime within the first or second date about your family. Yeah, but you're lucky you're married, dude. You don't have to worry about that anymore. I'm saying thank God and God forbid if she ever gets smart and dumps me or something happens. Then you're hanging out with me at the toilet center. I'm not dating. I'm not doing that. I'm just gonna go watch sports for my life. That's the only closure in your life. Go to krbe.com or contact Eric. Get up in the DMs at producer Eric on Instagram. Coming up next, there is a 40-year-old movie that still hits with so many people. We're talking 80s high school romance. There's a lot of them. John Hughes gave us a lot of them. Yes, he did. A lot of them. But there's a scene. We're supposed to know this, Eric, about this iconic scene gone wrong. We'll explain in scoop next on The Ruler Show with Eric and KRBE. Vince Collinaze is redefining news talk with The Vince Show. It is a reflection of your response to this program that we get to take this thing to the next level. These gigantic shows, this is going to be so much fun. It's unbelievable. In-depth interviews, live-caller interactions, and a front-row seat to the most important conversations of the day. I've got updates. I've got big stories. We'll sort through the truth of what's really going on. So buckle up. Here it comes. The Vince Show. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. It is brought to you by Taqueria Arandes. And there are some movies that just are never going to get old. I mean, they're old, but they're still going to hit. People like to do, oh, let's watch 80s movies night. Let's do Back to the Future. I'll tell you how strong the 80s were. Because if we were in the 80s and we started watching the movies, people now watch 80s, it'd be like the 1940s. Oh, there's a 1940 movie. What the hell? What the hell are we doing? What are we doing that? I don't watch that. So you think of 80s movies, you think of Breakfast Club, you think of like 16 candles, Pretty and Pink, Molly Ringwald, Fairspeeler's Day Off, All That Back to the Future. Predator. Yep. Predators. Make a noise. All those sports-danger movies. John Hughes, pretty much the icon of all high school teen angst movies. John Hughes also brought us Home Alone and all these things, right? So here's the story that is out now. And it's so interesting. I had to go back and look. I had to YouTube the end scene of Pretty and Pink. Now, of all the 80s movies, I have to say personally, I did not enjoy Pretty and Pink. I think she destroyed her mom's prom dress. I mean, it looks stupid and I hate how it looked in the end. Now, I just saw this movie on Valentine's Day with my kids and my wife. Okay. They released it for the anniversary. In the theaters. In the theaters. And my wife was so excited. She couldn't believe to sit there and watch her kids. Yeah. As teenagers now. She was about their age when she was watching that. Yes. And you had seen it before or not? I never really watched that one. No, me neither. Because I like the ones that are like 16 candles with this comedy and- Fast Times or Ridgemont High. Yeah, I still like that. Yeah. This one seemed too- So how'd the kids take it? How'd your wife take it? Watching it with the girls, not the teenagers. My wife was crying at the beginning just to see them. She's like, she remembers this. Couldn't really speak English. But she was learning it. Watching it. She would watch it a bunch of times. So she loved that. Plus the soundtrack is really good. If you like, you know, first wave type music. So if you've not seen Pretty and Pink, it is the story of Andy. Who's from the other side of the track versus the cool rich kids. Like Blaine, Andrew McCarthy, and the 50 year old high school kid James Peter. You guys were in a robe. He had a cigarette out of his mouth. With a bourbon. How many kids, you know, are drinking a bourbon with a robe at a party like at his house? A high school party. With like 300 kids. So the story, Andrew McCarthy's in the news today because he's talking about auditioning for that movie. He needed the money. They offered him $50,000 to play Blaine in Pretty and Pink. He said yes before he read the script. He was on an airplane with the script. He's reading the script. By the time he landed, he was like, holy crap. Get me out of this movie. This guy's a jerk. This movie sucks. This guy is a jerk because of the original end of this movie, what they often do. I don't know if they still do it now, but they did it a lot in the 80s and 90s. They'd film a movie and they would just put it in a theater and you thought you were buying a ticket for a specific thing and it's this movie. You're the test audience. So it was in Orange County, California. There's 300 people in this theater and they played Pretty and Pink to get people's reactions. And they hated the ending. They lost their minds. They loved the middle of the movie. They loved the whole ducky friendship with Andy and all the cute things. And then the original ending Blaine dumps Andy because she's poor and she's an outcast and they hated it. And Andrew McCarthy's like, give me out of this movie. This guy's a jerk. Okay. John Hughes, when he saw Andrew McCarthy come in for the audition, Andrew McCarthy says, Andrew McCarthy says, John Hughes was up against the floor, sitting on the floor, like totally disinterested, like who's this loser? He sees him read for Blaine and he just thinks this is not the kid. Molly Ringwald was in the room and she told John Hughes when Andrew McCarthy left, that's the one. He's Blaine. He's like, that loser? He's dopey. And he's like, no, no, he's like real soft. Like he's the one. You should hire him. And John Hughes actually listened to her. Because he is soft. Like he's not like the James Spader character. That's just a typical high school jerk. Or like Jake from 16 Candles is like the cute guy that drives the Porsche. But they're both kind of the same. Both of us two, they don't look the same, but they taught the same kind of low key. So when Andrew McCarthy, he gives all the credit in the world to Molly Ringwald and to John Hughes for listening to Molly Ringwald. Because remember this is the 80s. Girls don't know anything, but he listened to her and that's why he got the job. But when the audiences hated the ending, John Hughes for days, like what are we going to do? What are we going to do? We've already made this movie. And he had the idea we're going to recut the ending of this movie. And just like in Top Gun, during the sexy time scene where Kelly McGillis and Tom Cruise are kind of in the dark and it's blue light. That was a recut. And they did that so you can't really see their faces. Actually worked better. It worked better because it was real like, you know, sexy. Sexy. Selling their tongues touching. In the end scene, he does not dump Andy. He goes to the prom and then they have this great kiss by the car with these headlights. But the problem is, Andrew McCarthy was already hired for another movie. He's doing Broadway. Broadway, where he's playing a marina. They've shaved his head. He has no hair. So they put this wig on him and he was like, that wig was so distracting. He had to go back to the end to look at the wig. If you watch it, it is. It totally looks different than his regular hair in the movie. But you don't notice it because what they did was they put a sound stage. It was the middle of the afternoon and on the sound stage, they had fake plants and these headlights of this car and the misty fogginess. It looks like it's nighttime after the prom. And one day to shoot it all. Yeah, one day. They had one day to re-cut the ending of pre-impainting. The reason I noticed is because before they do the movie, when we were sitting there, they had the... Not John Hughes, obviously, but they had other people from the movie talk about that. Cool. Why they had to re-shoot that scene and stuff. By the way, 50 grand, but then is like 150,000 now. And he was like, I need the money. Yeah, 150 grand. You're going to turn that down and work for a six to 40 weeks. That is a 40 year old movie this year. It turns 40 this year. It's my least favorite of the high-speed dramas. Yeah, just 50 grand and do it. And also, what's the song from... Is it If You Leave or was it the Breakfast Club song? Hey, hey, hey, hey. That's my... That's my... Oh my God. Oh my God. It starts with a T now. Simple Mind? Simple Mind. Yes, Simple Mind. Yeah, yeah, y'all sent me to interview them. Really? Yeah, the Billboard Music Awards, they were an icon feature that year. Okay, get this. I just saw this story Kev about them. When they did the Breakfast Club soundtrack, they couldn't figure out... They had that song. It was a written song and nobody wanted to sing it. They had promoted it to all these different bands. Like, can you sing this song for this movie? Wow, that's iconic. And this was a Scottish group that didn't have anything, anything. They'd never done anything. Wow. And I guess we'll sing this. And they're icon... Look at you, you interviewed them. Yes, I did. And they had a fun accent. And this is the only number one hit they ever had, Simple Minds, from Breakfast Club. Let's go 80s weekend. Let's go. It's a rapid fire. Letty, do that. Please don't. It's time for What's Going Down in H-Town. I'm a ruler show with Eric. 104.1 K-R-D-E. It's Roger by Easy Fiber. By the way, the main theme was If You Leave by OMD. If You Leave... That's for Pretty in Pink? Yeah, for Pretty in Pink. Okay, but the One Person of the Minds, I'm talking about Breakfast Club song. Yeah, but I'm saying... What's the title? For Breakfast Club song? Yeah, what's that one? And they go, Don't You Forget About Me. Don't You Forget About Me. Thank you. I'll take 40 year old Poppins for 100. And then second, I like First did the Pretty in Pink. Remember they had that deep voice. Psychic is a voice. But he has a weird voice, a deeper voice. Yeah, yes, yes. Alright, Ghostro's, last night we beat the Red Sox again. And look out for Eric for the one o'clock game. It's a Wednesday, baby. Our buddy Cliff, Constable Cliff, he's picking me up. We're going to the game. Hopefully they win. I don't know if I'm gonna do the $9 or the $9.99. Because it's not the real $9.99. Nine hot dogs, nine beers and nine innings. Well, you should. They won $9.99. They won $9 last night. If I'm at the game with a kill, they'll be, oh! You know, I feel like I have some kind of like MLB telepathy. Because when Jordan gets up on the, to bat, I was doing the dishes. And I was like, come on, Jordan, hit a home run. You're gonna hit a home run. I know you're gonna hit a home run. And then I strike and ball and strike. And I'm like, watch guys, he's gonna hit a home run. I was like, oh, I know Colin, I called him. I get so excited. I don't know how you did that. How did you predict that he would hit a home run? That he would hit a home run. I mean, of all the people, I would never pick him to have a home run. Hey, sometimes I picked him and he wouldn't do it. Yeah, well, if he's looking great this year, and if he's healthy the whole year, this could be it. He could maybe get 50, 60 home runs. What are they, four and two on the season, right? That's right. Four and two against the socks, which are one and four. So, and I misspoke yesterday. I remember I said, typically when our Astros win by a large margin, the next game they don't win and they lose by a large margin, but that's two games in a row. So, Eric, I hope they make it three in a row for you. They're on a heater right now. I hope they get three in a row for you. What is a heater? Like they're on fire like this. You just keep winning. It's like gladi-check. You just can't be stopped. You're on a heater. I heard that in the movie Major League and I didn't understand it. That's why I had to ask you. Oh, really? Because I've heard it for years. I've never actually asked, well, what's a heater? How'd they say it? Oh, but they were... Come on. They've been winning so many times. You saw the movie Major League, Ladi? Now, that's a great 80s movie. That is a great 80s movie. Amazing 80s movie. Have you ever seen Major League? I don't know. There's no soccer in it. It's about baseball. I just know about the knees and the ice baths. That's what I learned about that. Remember they had a giant poster of the coach? Yes, with Wild Thing. Yeah. Rick Vaughn. Hey, bring in Vaughn. Yeah, Vaughn. Bring in Vaughn. Wow, Bang. And actually they said they credit Major League for why the real MLB now has closer music. Yeah. That's cool. It did not exist before Major League. Well, you know how... Charlie Sheen's character was Wild Thing and they'd bring him out and everyone's seeing Wild Thing and then all the MLB... You might not remember this, but they used to take the reliever into the game on a little golf cart. Yeah. It looked like a baseball helmet or it looked like a... From Cinder Field, they're taking right all the way to the pitch and mound. Yeah. They had like a theme one. It looked like a baseball. Really? Yeah. Yeah, look it up. Right there in the Astrodome. Yeah, the Astrodome helmet. What did theirs look like? I can't remember. It was just regular golf cart. It wasn't one. It sounded like the Mets, I think, had what looked like a baseball. So they'd bring the golf cart around the dirt to drop off the closing pitcher on the mound? Yeah. You might get tired walking all the way out there. They would come from the bullpen. Straight into Cinder Field. Yeah, but now it's like the walk with the swagger walk from music. That's how things are changed. Yeah. Yeah. Look it up. You'll see. All right. The 80s and 90s. Maybe mid-90s, they stopped. Yeah. You know, you're gonna walk up music when you're gonna go back. Yeah. Oh, that's right. It's really fun. I can think about that all the time. Ghost Rose won a clock game today. It's a Wednesday game. Well, the roof will be open. Probably not, but it's gonna be a nice day. All right, come on next. The Rapid Fire Quiz. Oh, I'm a genius. That's why Lattie is here. Rula's going for a three-peat. That's right, baby. And we're bringing back the mystery box. Woo-hoo! No! Why am I excited? I'm not excited. I'm just excited because there's a new mystery box. Kevin has worked on it. Yeah. Because that old mystery box was so disgusting and dirty. Kevin, it's 2026. Rose. It's a 20-year-old box. We need a new box. Yep. Wow, 20 years old. Yes. Yeah, imagine the germs in that. We did. All right, we need four contestants, guys. 833-390-KRBE up for grabs.
