  • The 'closure' segment demonstrates audience demand for real-life relationship resolution and accountability, suggesting people value authentic confrontation over avoidance
  • Using sensory deprivation (blindfolds) and mystery elements creates heightened emotional reactions that translate well to video content for social platforms
  • Networking events can create negative experiences when one party uses the event instrumentally without reciprocal engagement or basic courtesy

Hey, this is Anthony Push from the Push and Win Law firm. If you've been injured in an 18-wheeler accident, call us today, 833 Push Win. You can also visit us online, pushwin.com. 104.1 K-R-B-E, a cumulus media station. Good morning, everyone. We ready? Live from the TFC Energy Studio. You're the ruler's show with Eric featuring Special K and Sam. All right, my friends, another Harry Sells keyword coming at you, the national keyword is Sushi. S-U-S, like sus. Hi. S-U-S. Oh, Lord, okay. Sushi. S-U-S-H-I, send that to 95819 to enter for a chance to win one of four trips to New York or one to London to see Harry Styles in concert. And Special K's got a telemarketer, let's hit it now. All right. Spam calls, he answers them all. Hey, Sam, scammy scam. I'm Aberdeen, pardon, what do you mean, Brice, scammy scam? It's Special K's telemarketer turnaround. So you have a beautiful voice. Oh yeah, thank you, everybody's ordering me that. I'm a ruler's show with Eric. 104.1 K-R-B-E. All right, this is where you don't have to necessarily go to our website to contact him because the calls just keep coming like a gift every day. But if you wanna be part of a prank call with Kevin on Fridays, go to krbe.com, slash prank call requests, fill out the short form and he'll get with you there. Now, today's telemarketer turnaround is about a car warranty from what it sounds like. What we're gonna get into here is what was top of mind for me at the time, which was two things. I had my eyes laser treated, so they looked messed up, looked like someone booted me in both my eyes. They look great though, no? You got to keep my donkey in the head. But they have really come a long way, so now it's better. So whenever this call happened, that's what happened to my eyes. Also, I do not try to hide it. I did have a colonoscopy like we advocate for it. And unfortunately, my colon is a dang mess. There's colitis and diverticulitis and all kinds of things that my grandmother had. What's the point in there? It's like a shark when you cut it open. I would think about it as a poor old lady. Well, now I'm that old lady. So, And Louise Pennybaker? Yes, today we're gonna bring in Bobby Stelinger. Bobby is Renee's sister, okay? But they've been booted. Katie's own? Kind of sounds the same and they close their eyes when they talk. They're wild is what they are. All right, so let's pick it up here where I hit record and she's trying to sell me on this car warranty here on the ruler show with Eric. Thank you so much for holding the line. This is Heyso, how are you? Fine. All right, ma'am. Please tell me ma'am, how's your car running so far? How's my colon running? It's actually really bad. I have colitis and I have diverticulitis and it makes my tummy hurt. Yes. Oh, okay, okay. And ma'am, what kind of car it is? What kind of colon it is? It's a pretty big one from what I've been told. Okay, now I'm asking you what kind of car you have. Like it's a Honda, Toyota, Cadillac. What kind of vehicle it is? Oh, oh, my automobile vehicle? Yes, it's about the automobile. It's a verification call. Is it running good to you or there is some problem like any leakages? I don't usually talk about my leakage. It's embarrassing, but yes, it's leakage. Yes, yes. Okay, no problem. We're gonna fix that up. So please tell me what mileage you have on it. She's been ridden hard and put away wet about, yes, 100 and some miles, I would assume. And what's the making model of it, ma'am? It's a Ford Topaz. Yeah. Oh, I got you. It's a Ford Topaz. They fix or repair daily. This is what Ford stands for. Okay, okay. And please confirm me, like you are a senior citizen, right? If I'm not wrong. Oh, goodness gracious. I do apply for senior discounts everywhere I can, you know. But for now, we already have your profile as a senior citizen promotional plan. Okay. So there is a huge discount and a lot of additional benefits to you, okay? And you can tell I'm a senior citizen because my face is drooping or I need more Botox or I just had some surgery done and I look really rough today. Oh, my God bless you with good health. So ma'am, please tell me, how do you pronunciate your name, Judy? Oh, yes, of course. It's Bobby Zellwigger. You know my sister. Don't you know my sister? No, it's Bobby. Your name is Bobby? Bobby Zellwigger and you know my sister. We're all here in Katie, Texas. It's where movie stars are born, except I didn't get to be one. Only my sister did. Yeah, she has squinty eyes and a pretty face. Oh, you're all sisters living nearby you. Well, the one lives in the shed in the back because she's the bastard child, but the other one is the movie star. Okay, the other one is the movie star, your sister. Yes, and she's been in many different films and television shows and she doesn't open her eyes. That's her thing. She just keeps them closed and it makes a smoky look. Have you seen her? Okay, okay. So, Miss Bobby, please stay with me on the line for just completing out your profile. You're going away? Are you going on break? Did you get fired? Oh, here we go. Oh, this guy. Harry, thanks for being connecting on call, Harry, didn't you say? I'm just fine. What happened to Sabrina? She just transferred to me because she had done her job and now it's my duty to complete this call. And that's why she just gave me your call. You fired her? Sorry? She was doing poorly, so you fired her? No. Okay, because she was doing a great job and I enjoyed speaking to her. Yes. So how was your call running so far for you? What? Well, the four-toe pass is up on blocks right now. It's under blocks. So, whenever I can find some wheels and tires for it, I guess I'll take it back on the road. But it's been quite some time. Have you seen the four-toe pass? Oh, they're marvelous. Okay, is there any problem in the engine or any kind of leakage? I told the lady there's a lot of leakage. Unfortunately, at this age, everything leaks and reeks. I'm talking about the car, the Ford. Oh, I thought you were talking about my digestive issues. This is not my doctor's office. Oh! What? What? Doctor who? Oh my goodness! They stopped making the Ford tow pass in 1994. Did they really? I had my, that was my first car in 1986. It was a four-door light. So I chose it. Look at that sucker up. That, whew. What color was yours? I never got many ladies with that car. What color was it? Black. I can just see you in your Coke bottle glasses rolling around in that thing. But I did have a girlfriend. It was the back seat was comfortable. The cars were just built like beds back then. They were giant. Or even my parents had like an old automobile. Yeah. I forget what it was. I think an old automobile or something. Delta 88 or something. I don't know whatever it was. And the front was a bench, you're right. Yeah, they're huge. So you could fit three or four people in the front seat, three or four in the back. You got like eight people in those cars. But if your grandmother had short legs and everyone else had long legs, you couldn't really sit with her in the front because she'd have to pull that whole bench forward. And then everyone's knees are up there. And the hump? The hump in the back. Oh yeah. And sometimes you could put that hump down. It would, oh no. You're talking about the hump on the floor. You couldn't lay across it unless you used it. I could travel to Birtle Beach and my sisters would be in the seats and then I'd lay down. Yeah. And put one head down. And then my legs would go over the hump. It was relaxing. Or the old school station wagon. Not safe, Del. Where you're facing the traffic and the headlights are blinding you because you're in the back of the station wagon. That was fun. Yeah, those are good old days, right, Lattie? Lattie is here because he is the subject of the next segment, my friends. It's called Closure. And Lattie, you've been working on this with Eric for how long now, two weeks? Three or more than weeks. It seems like forever at this point. Well, he told the story like three or four weeks ago. Okay, so Lattie joined KRBE. When, how long have you been working here? Wow, I think, I mean, officially maybe February? Was it February? Yeah, January, February. He moved in. I thought it was before Christmas for some reason. No, uh-uh. No, we were talking. I tried. So you can hear Lattie on the weekends and really all the time. Wednesdays he joins us. Yeah, he's here for the Red Fire Quiz at eight o'clock. But obviously listens to our show, knows that we do closure, talk to Eric about getting closure with somebody from your past. He talked about her, but I'd be like, hey, we gotta get closure. I pressured him. Right, real quick. Last week was April Fools. And then someone responded on a message and they said, on our Facebook page, they said, who is that guy that go, oh, that's the new intern. Oh, he's not always that old. No, I actually work here. I actually work here. I get a paycheck. Yeah, come on. I earn that one. So we're gonna give you some closure, Lattie. Are you ready for this? Please? Oh my God. Please? I don't think I'm ready for it, but it's gonna happen, right. Okay, let's hear it next on the Rula Show with Eric in 104.1 KRBE. Action. Next roll with Vernon Davis. I'm your host Vernon Davis. Okay, y'all, thank you. Thank you. That's enough. Today, we have Dietrich Wise. Through my example on the field, off the field, during game day in practice, that was one way that I led, because then it led to success. Next roll isn't about what's next. It's about why they do it. My man, Bobby Bones. Like, I've had a lot of stuff happen, bad and good. And so I don't have any fear of mixing it up. That's powerful, man. Next roll with Vernon Davis. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. 104.1 KRBE. Closure time. One last call, you're 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. That's right. Closure can be found if you, D.M., the producer, Eric, app producer, Eric, on Instagram. You can also reach out via krbe.com. But I would say that in the way we live our lives now, less and less people are going that route. They're just going straight to you. I love it that way. Or I talk with you, and I can help you out. And I know Ruella and Sam, I have my eyes on you too for possible closures with possible bridesmaids, one that didn't show up to your wedding. I'd love to hear what she's doing now. Where's that ghosted bride, the one that ghosted you, Sam? Still living in Houston. So if you're listening, whatever your name was, please D.M. me. I'd love to have you on. I'll track you down. I didn't know what to be a part of this. I bought the dress and everything. I just didn't show up to Sam's wedding. I'm going to find out what happened. And then mine was offered a free trip and everything, free dress, free everything, and just was like, yeah, I'm just not going to give you an answer. And then I'll just pretend like you never asked me. Is she from Greece? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You have to go far along. Does she speak English? Yeah, yeah. Really perfect English. OK, so give me some info. No, God. Yeah, no, no, no. All right. Ladi is here because it's Wednesday. We're going to do rapid fire quiz at 8 o'clock for your chance to win Dancing with the Stars tickets to get the sweet Smart Financial Center and Gold for the Three Peeps. And don't forget him, but not anymore. Kevin won last week. Oh, shoot. I forgot. Because his winner picked you to go to the mystery box, which will be in about 20 minutes. After closure. Yeah. And so Ladi has been chatting with us over these last weeks. He's been visiting us. Tell him about the story you told me about three, four weeks ago. A little bit so that they kind of know. Right. So basically, I was living in Memphis and a friend of mine, there's a thing called the Science of Wine. It's a big old event. You know, it's a hoity-toity kind of a thing. They have wine. They have food, all this kind of jazz. Well, I got tickets because I was working in radio. And you get the who's who, right? It goes to these events. And so a friend of mine and his wife were going. And they said, oh, Ladi, it'd be so great since you have an extra ticket. Why don't you bring or go on a date with one of my friends? I think that y'all had hit it off. And I'm like, OK, so it's like a blind date. Sure. But that's how people meet now. Yeah. That's another way you can meet. Like if friends are going to set you up with somebody, sure. I married my blind date. Oh, he's grody. Oh. Sorry. Sorry. Back to you. Back to you. And so we went out into this event. And basically the whole time, she ghosted me why we were there. I mean, we were there for about three hours at this event. And she probably said about six words to me. And they had little stations. You'd go have a little wine station over here. Wait, when she first met you, Ladi, give us the details on when she first got introduced to you. What'd she say? The friends that were setting you up. We're at my friend's house. Yes. And then she walks to the door. I bought a new shirt. Went shopping. That's my deal. I bought a new shirt. And I was like, all right, this is all right. So I saw a picture of the girl and she was kind of attractive. So I was like, wow, right on. So she walks in the door and I'm like, hey, how you doing? I'm Ladi. And she's like, hey, Mary Catherine is her name. And I was like, OK. And then there's also another couple there. And we're all drinking, having some cocktails and everything. And then she just really wasn't outgoing. She was just kind of standoffish. Didn't really say much. And I can talk to a wall. Yeah, yeah, you just. And I'm thinking this is going to be all right. So we get in the Uber, we go to this event and then basically the whole time. I mean, there's $150 a ticket to this event. That's a lot of money. Yeah. And you're going to bring somebody that's going to be mean to you. Well, I didn't know that. I mean, I just I thought it was. And she has a nickname too, right? Or a name she goes by. Her friends call her MC. And so I'm like, OK, Mary Catherine MC. All right, these these southern names, you know. But she didn't like. So it's fine. You calling her. But you called her Mary Catherine. You called her MC. I tried a little bit of both. And apparently that didn't work out for me. OK, I said MC and she's like, you want you to call me Mary Catherine. And I'm like, all right, that's kind of odd, because everyone else is calling you MC. So that was. You're not friends with me yet. Bloody. And then when you know you. Right. And when you go to this event, they have these little stations, like there's like a little wine person here and it's in a museum. OK, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You can see all this stuff. There's food, there's drinks. And it's a big socially event is what it is. You're going to meet people. You're going to hang out. And I would try to talk to her like, oh, what kind of wine do you like? And she'd be like, oh, well, it has to be a certain kind of a grape from the certain type of soil from Argentina. And I'm like, all right, right on. And then I even asked her a question, just a small talk, like, what do you do for a living? And she's like, I work in I.T. and like security. And I was like, OK, like Mahaffey and stuff. She's like, she's like, oh, like 15 years ago. Oh, man, no. Wow, you like. What? Like, well, I'm just trying to. And then she would walk away. That's she would just walk away. She was using you to meet people. That's what it felt like. And I'm like, dude, I've been on dates before where you kind of know it's like going on. Now, can I ask you a question? I knew that. Did you do you think that did your friends tell her that they were bringing her along to meet you or did they bamboozle her with, hey, there's this guy blind date? Surprise. It's it's. Hey, look, we're going to go to this event. Ladi has tickets as well. We think that she would be a good match. Ladi can talk to a wall. He's very social. She didn't know. Gotcha. Gotcha. Right. So. OK. So, hey, let's just go out. And this is a social kind of a time. How did it end? Like. Tell them how it ended. Like we Ubered on the way home. I mean, we basically Ubered on the way back and then we get back to my friend's house. And then it was just kind of, you know, I don't want to. Because we went out to dinner right afterwards. She wouldn't even talk to me then. And I'm sitting. But she still wants to dinner with you. That's why I'm confused. Because we all went as a group. But if you want to feel like a group, you're not going to ditch off from the other two people that she knows. And I'm not. And I paid for the meal, too. No, I didn't do that. No, absolutely not. That's good. Because I was with this person. They didn't. It was the worst day I've ever been on. And like, you could have just been cordial. You could have just said words to me and been like, all right, we're going to relive that terrible day today. Eric has found Mary Catherine. And she's standing by on the line. And she's heard what you said because, you know, you got to give us the backstory. Now let's find out more from her. So let's welcome her to the show now here on the rule of show with Eric and 104.1 K. R.B. Good morning, Mary Catherine. OK, thanks for having me. I know this is weird, but I tread you down because Lady told me this story that he just told all of us about three weeks ago. So I had to try and find you and he gave me some information and I don't think did you think I was going to get her on? Or are you hoping? I didn't think she'd answer anyone's phone call. Well, why don't you go ahead and say hi to her? Mary Catherine. Yeah, you know, I don't answer many people's phone calls. I'm very much an emailer. And I don't know what I can do for you here, to be honest. Well, why don't you take it from here then? Let Mary. OK, so it's we do a radio show. Mary Catherine, as Eric explained to you and Ladi is part of our team here at K.R.B.E. And as he just explained what you heard when you were on hold, what you take it from here, you ask her what you need to ask her. Yeah, I mean, look, the event was $150 a night. It was the who's who. And you didn't say a word. You didn't even try to get to know me. And you knew it was kind of be like a first kind of date and kind of like a blind date thing. And we have mutual friends and you literally just kind of ghosted me in public, like right. During the date. You guys are doing the date. I've never heard of a ghost on a date. Right. Why did you do that, Mary Catherine? Well, first of all, you know, I the majority of dates, I have to say, lately that I've gone on anyway, recent years are a waste of time. So, you know, I'm in the point of my life right now, just in the season of my life, you could say, where it's just like, I'm all about networking. So going to events, meeting the right people. And this just seemed like a very easy way to go about doing that. So I took advantage of it. And he didn't seem like my type. So you used him for the ticket is what you're honestly saying. You used him for the ticket. If you want to put it that way, I wouldn't put it that way, but I went for the ticket. Lady, how's that make you feel? Well, I mean, you should have talked about you want to meet network. I'm the guy to do that with everyone in the city. I can tell you I'm the one person you didn't talk to. He works at the biggest radio station in Texas. In Memphis, you were on the radio. Yes. You do everybody at that time. You're there for a morning show that your friends are mutual friends would listen all the time. And that's how they introduced us. Ladi knows everyone. He's going to have a great time with you. Yeah. If he works the city, he knows everybody. Mary Catherine, that's so odd that you ignored him. And he seems like the biggest connector to all the networks. How would just cough twice if it just wasn't his looks? It's OK. You can cough twice if it is. Blink. Blink twice if you think he was cute. It had to be something. What was it about him? I mean, I just I had no idea. Just as you're telling me right now, you know, this big connector kind of guy, like, you know, I I went to Mingle basically. So that's what I was there to do. Like it's nothing like that. But you didn't mingle with him. You know, and you're kind of rude to him. Like rude. How was I rude to him? Did you say you were rude to him? Do you disagree with what he was telling us about the way you were acting when he was trying to talk to you and like ask you questions about wine and stuff? I like wine. You know, I have my opinions. I guess I felt like the question from what I can remember. I mean, this guy's it's been a very long time. So I'm like trying to rack my mind here going back in time, basically. But like I just didn't feel like the conversation was very, you know, stimulating. That's all I can recall. Let's see. Here's what's crazy. I still feel that you're not even talking to me right now. Like it did then you're talking to everyone else but me. Yes. Still. I mean, I just can't win here, even on this closure. Ladi, it sounds like you're unforgettable to her. Yeah. Like forgettable. Yeah. Free. You're forgettable. That sounds like a Kevin song. I mean, I mean, do you even know who I am? Do you remember? Do you remember what I when I when I look like? We wrote in the car together. Then we wrote on the way back. Mary Catherine, if he was to walk in front of you right now, would you recognize him? Would you know who he is? So you're asking me and going to tell you the truth. I don't think I could pick him out of the lineup. Oh, that's going to hurt. That's going to hurt. What's funny is that he's forgettable. He's still talking about this years later. And two years later, he's thinking about this so much. Mary Catherine, that Eric found you to ask you about it. And you don't really remember the time. See, and that's the thing about it. Oh, sorry. It's kind of sad. Yeah. Well, another thing about it is that I've never been in a situation like this. I've been on dates before where I know they're not going to go anywhere. And I tell the person, hey, look, it looks like we're just going to be friends. But let's still have a great night. Let's enjoy the time. But you're positive person. You want to make the best of things. Right. But it was a big social event. We could have still hung out together. You literally didn't give me any time. And then on the fact that you're like, everyone else is calling you MC. Like that's your name. And then when I'm like, hey, MC, you're like, call me Mary Catherine. Yeah, definitely. She wasn't into you at all. I'd be like, especially, hey, special K. Yeah. Call me Kevin. Well, listen, obviously, Mary Catherine, we appreciate your time for being on the show. But is it fair for us to take away from this conversation that you used him for the access to an event that you really wanted to go to and didn't really want to have any access to him? I think used is a strong word, but I was there for the event. That's used clearly. It there was no chemistry, right? So I think that's Lenny's point is you had no chance because you talked to him. Six words, pretty much six words. The entire time. You didn't give him a chance to even get to know him. You just got in and said, I'm going to go find some other people to talk to. Sorry, Ladi. Well, yeah, you got closure there. You were used. Can I ask you one question? Are you are you are you single? Are you seeing somebody? I don't think I need to disclose that. I'm doing just fine. I'll leave it at that. Mary Catherine, thanks for being on closure. Can I call you MC? Sure, you can call me that. Thanks for being available. We're using it. I know it's forgettable. Seriously. In every way. I don't forget a bowl. In Ladi's way. Oh, my gosh. OK, well, you know, Ladi. Yeah, I say everyone gets to call her MC. MC. Even I got to call her. You don't even know the girl. I talked more to her than you did. People are saying it's better. It's for the best. You you really did not miss out on much with her. And look, she just didn't care. That just sucks for someone to use you like that. At least if they're going to use you, at least be cordial and taught to you. I'm just kind of surprised she didn't really give you any time at all. I've been from the first on set meeting of you before you even got to the event. I mean, her dad is off air. You're telling me he's like the mayor of some town. He was a mayor of West Memphis, Arkansas. And I'm like, oh, that's great. Right. But the whole point was it was a big event. I what I could have done is I was not necessarily doing her a favor, but kind of doing me a favor because I want to find a relationship. Do you know what I'm saying? And I'm actually doing this for me, but also help out my friends. Let's have a good time. I want everyone to be around and have a great time. That that's just me as a person. And it ended up being the worst night ever to a certain point. So you know, ghosted while you're on the date. Yeah, that's the first. That's the first. If you are looking for closure, reach out to Eric on Instagram at producer Eric. You can also go to krbe.com. Coming up next, we usually have scooping news. Brad, you might take it on. That's an easy fiber. Now, why am I telling you both of those sponsors in one shot? Because I feel like what's going to happen next is going to take me off the rails and either I'm going to pee my pants or I'm going to throw up. I'm not sure what's going to happen. I might be out of commission for 20 minutes. Mystery box. And we. Is it. Yeah. I'm the first one to go into the brand new mystery box, which means it's not tainted with garbage yet. At least that it's not fully done yet. We're going to decorate it and Kevin tried to what put the plastic on it broke. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This is this is not a complete box, but as far as I could go. But it'll be, but you get this. You're still going to be in that new box. Really. Oh, God. What is the bigger better newer and it smells good. You love a good smell. I do. I do have blood on nose. So I'm glad it's not gross yet. And that's what we put in it is. Yeah, but. We got a lot of things in that box. All right. What's in the box next on the Rula show with Eric? Well, he bought on the Rula show there again. One of 4.1 K R.B.E. We usually do scoop here. Brought to you by Takari Aranda. And also the news brought you by Easy Fiber. But all of that is going to be one big package called the mystery box. Because the mystery box is brand new. Now, the original mystery box was built by special K. And we told him to build us this box. We didn't tell him what it was for. And then we put him in it for the first time. The very thing that he built. We put mystery box. But you got like I've done. Tests on it. Disgusting. Like in 2020. Is that right? Before COVID, we did a Petri dish test on the mystery box. Yeah. It was disgusting. It was worse than anything we had. Because we've had octopus in there, ferrets in there, snakes in there, bugs in there, fire in there, poop in there. We've got so much stuff in there. All kinds of things. So there's a new box. Yeah. A flying squirrel. What was that little thing? It was cute. We had a hedgehog in there. We had all kinds of stuff. Chickens. OK, so the box is bigger. I've seen from what I've seen, the box is bigger. Bravo Special K, but it's not finished. No, not really. So really, what I know, I'm going to get a splinters in the box. If you get one, you put your hands in it. The whole store need to be sanded and he's going to put some liner in there. So just let you know. It's a basic box and thank you to Booster, who also helped me with it until like 10 o'clock last night, caulking, repainting. And then I finally put the plexiglass on it and it split down the middle as soon as I put the screw through it. So there is no front flap. So no. And sometimes. That's great. Maybe. Oh, God. I can leave the rooms. Y'all can tell everyone. Go another room where you can't hear anything, Rula. And then we'll have a lomade bring you in. So she may or may not get hurt with this thing. Right. That's the fun of it. Well, she might get hurt from just putting her hand in the box. Splinters. Splinters. You got nails. I mean, I don't know what's in here. I didn't sand it. No, you did not. Plus, I had to make the holes twice the size that used to be because of Rula's gorilla hand. Yeah. So. Well, we are not shaming anyone. That was one of the stipulations that we did that get bigger. Rula has to fit her hands in there. So their Greek Easter is this weekend. And what do they like to eat? Lamb. They love lamb. So I went to the store. I even met this nice person behind the butcher lady. She works at the Kroger over there at Puffer Speedway. And I asked, do you have some parts of lamb? Ew. And she goes, well, we have stuff selling over there. But I didn't want to buy the nice pieces. They're like 20 bucks. No. 15, 20. So I got the ground lamb. Oh my. It smells. Yeah, it's real strong. The smell. Let me go. Let me smell it. Maybe you go switch positions, Kevin. OK, OK, OK. I see it. So it looks like hamburger meat. Yeah, she may not be freaked out, but she could because it's a texture thing for her. And then. I don't know how cold it is because I pull out the fridge when I left. So it's been sitting out for like an hour and a half. OK. And I want to take this home whenever you're done with it because I love lamb kebabs. Her fingers are in it. You're going to eat it? No. Rula's hands are probably the cleanest on the entire show. We got to bring her in. OK, OK, OK. She knows what it is, and we're going to spray the room with lice sauce. Rula cannot see she's in a blindfold. And of course, we will have this posted on all of Caravage social media so that you can see what exactly is going on with Rula. So you can see the video of it. Hold on. What are we doing? You have the blindfold? I bet you already had it on her. OK. Technical difficulty. How hard is it to put a blindfold on? Don't have. Here she comes. OK, let's spray the room with lice sauce so she gets freaked out. We always like to spray the lice all because she just screws with you because you don't know it will recover in something. OK. Just doing it to screw with you. Rula's coming into the studio. Make sure she doesn't hit her. Don't touch her face, the Guider. You're supposed to be in front of her. A lot of these don't make a good sleep, Ida. He's pushing the tree right. Oh, my lanta. There you go, you guy. OK. There we go. OK. We're going to pivot. There we go. OK, put our hands on top of the box so that she knows where it's at. Like slowly so you don't get splinters, Rula. She looks so scared right now. She's got her hands all clenched up. Oh, I got double blindfolds on. They're falling off. I have my eyes closed under here. Even if it falls off, it's fine because you can't see for that angle. Yeah, it's fine. It's just for. Do I not need the blindfold? No, take them off. Go ahead. Let's take them off. Yes, do you know where the box is at? OK, there's the mic. Oh, look, this is a nice big box. Look how nice. Here she goes. OK, ready? She's so nervous. Smell like anything to you. You got any whips? You got that magic nose. I do smell something, but I don't think it's the box. Oh, it's a lemonade. Oh, my God. Lovny puts the odor on. We were talking about workplace smells and colognes. OK, no, I don't. My blood, how does I really? All right. Is it beef? Is it raw meat? When I smell Suvlaki. Do I smell like you know? I like that. I can't imagine it's that. OK, here she goes. OK, really? I'm going to put my hands in the box. Oh, God. Remember, I know for sure it's not going to crawl out because there's no front. There's no front. It won't crawl out. Is it like the old box where I put my hands in and go down? Yes. But you have to go down as far. But I don't know if it's wiggly on something. I'm just saying. I'm just saying it could be wiggly. She's turning so red right now. It's awful. Do we have paper towels? Do it, do it, do it. Come on. Lovny. It's like ripping up the bandage. It's so hard. Go. Do it. Oh, God. Let me get the paper towels ready just in case it. We're giving you a countdown. We're going to give you a countdown. Eric, give her a countdown. 4, 3, 2, 1. Here she goes. Your hands are in the box. You just have to go down. I don't want to. All right. No, keep going down. You got to go really down. Oh, there she goes. Wait. What is it? Oh, God. Oh, she's like. I'm patting. Oh, God. What is that? Is it like tongue? Is it like tonsils? Oh, God. Is it like, oh, God. Is it alive? I don't know. Oh, God. If it was alive, it probably would have crawled out. I mean, if it's wiggling. Touch it again. Oh, God. What is it? It's like, oh, God. Is it like, oh, God. It feels disgusting. What is it? Just grab it. You'll know. You'll know. You should have taken your ring. You should have. What is it? What is it? It's like tongue, isn't it? No, what you grab it? It's like a beef muscle. Put your hand in there. Oh, God. Don't tap it. Grab it. Grab it. Grab it. Grab it. Grab it. Oh, God. What is it? I can't. Y'all can't. Oh, God. You got it. You got it. It's going to be disgusting. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I don't have my hands. She's spilling. She's spilling. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears. Her ears are ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears ears Oh my God! I was imagining some kind of slick animal part or something. Dengas of a turkey or something. How big is a dengas of a turkey? I've never seen it. I don't know! Maybe the next time. Oh my God! Ground lamb, yes it is Easter for the Greeks. We eat lamb. We eat lamb. You don't eat meat? It's okay, we make lamb. Oh my God! I'm going to wash my hands now y'all. I'm looking at it through this way and I'm like, God does it look that bad, but from her angle she has no clue what it is. That's what makes it scary. Because we're going to play rapid fire here in a few seconds and we're going to need contestants and whoever wins that contestant picks who they want to go in the mystery box next week and Ladi, they can pick you if they want. Just let you know. He might be fun to pick people since he's never done it before. Just letting you think about that. Kevin you're going for a repeat. So we need a contestant for Kevin, for Rula, for Sam and me. Coming up next. I'm the Rula Show with Eric, I'm 104.1, K-R-B-E. Do your friggin' taxes now. That was a really good fashion voice. Did you like it? You do that more frequently please. Yes, every show from now on.
