Speaker 354.32s - 74.46s

So last week, I was looking, bought two new four-wheelers for Christmas for the kids last year. And Monday? No, wait, Friday. I'm looking at one of the four wheelers and it is completely skint up all the plastic is grooved outthe headlight is hanging off the racks are broken and the handlebars are bent damn

Speaker 474.46s - 76.46s

you think that's fun

Speaker 376.46s - 77.6s

you won't notice right

Speaker 177.6s - 78.58s

just put it back

Speaker 378.58s - 82.04s

just put it back where it was

Speaker 282.04s - 84.74s

no no no no do better than that so in the garage

Speaker 384.74s - 86.08s

they're one behind the other and this one So in the garage, there are one behind the other.

Speaker 186.8s - 88.58s

And this one was in the front.

Speaker 389.1s - 91.86s

So like the one we've been using was in the back.

Speaker 192s - 93.74s

So I was like, when did this happen?

Speaker 293.82s - 94.48s

How did this happen?

Speaker 195.34s - 96.56s

Couldn't figure out what happened.

Speaker 297.42s - 98.7s

And I put it on my Facebook ORG.

Speaker 398.86s - 100.52s

It's just my John Clay Wolf ORG Facebook.

Speaker 2101.26s - 103.26s

And I said, who wrecked the four-wheeler?

Speaker 3103.92s - 117.08s

And oddly enough, that smoked him out. Did it really? It really did. A fella posted a picture because everybody's comments were like, whoever is limping and severely bruised and scraped. Yeah, it's messed up. That's where I would start looking.

Speaker 4117.24s - 121.52s

They did a number of it, man. This thing's bad. How long did it take for somebody to admit to it?

Speaker 3122.08s - 125.14s

About six hours later. Oh, wow. That was quick.

Speaker 4125.26s - 126.3s

Social media right there.

Speaker 3126.3s - 127.06s

Social media is strong.

Speaker 4127.46s - 127.82s

Damn.

Speaker 3128.02s - 128.74s

I'm going to say,

Speaker 0129.34s - 131.42s

so the four-wheelers cost $6,000.

Speaker 3131.58s - 132.98s

It's $1,000 worth of damage.

Speaker 0133.64s - 134.42s

It needs bars.

Speaker 3134.82s - 135.8s

It needs plastics.

Speaker 0136s - 136.82s

It needs a headlight.

Speaker 3137.38s - 139.4s

It needs a rack. It might be more than $1,000.

Speaker 4139.58s - 145.84s

Possible frame damage. You can see all this on the stream, by the way. They were showing the video for the damage. It's pretty bad. How is there no blood on it?

Speaker 3146.2s - 150.6s

J.CWS ORG show.com. If you look right there at the floorboard, there's a little bit of blood. Oh, wow.

Speaker 4150.6s - 152.62s

And I didn't want to go as far as DNA test.

Speaker 3152.72s - 152.88s

Yeah.

Speaker 4153.2s - 159.02s

But my friend, and we were writing these the night before, he came out here, my old radio host,

Speaker 3159.74s - 212.36s

because he's going through a time with his marriage or ex-marriage. And he's like, hey, man, can I? He just got his breathalyzer off of his car that day. He said, I'm a free man. So I'm going to come out Thursday and hang with you. I said, sure, nobody's out here.We're at the ranch. And spent some time. And then the next day, Friday, I come down here to the studio, which I work in on Fridays a lot of times. And I never saw him all day. And then my buddy, Miller-Ly-Dany PERSON, calls and says, hey, your friend's drunk.You might not want him to drive. I said, dude, he just got his breathalyzer off. So I called him, and I got on his ass. I said, I don't know where you've been all day. It's like one. But we're down here, and I thought you were going to come down here, too.But Danny PERSON says you're messed up and you don't need to be driving home go to sleep so I was kind of a jerk to him tough love right

Speaker 1212.36s - 214.5s

sure but what had really happened

Speaker 3214.5s - 219.06s

is he was so dazed and knocked silly from the wreck

Speaker 4219.06s - 222.8s

he wasn't drunk

Speaker 3222.8s - 239.7s

oh wow and I never even put him in there because the four-wheeler in the He wasn't drunk. Oh, wow. And I never even put him in there because the four-wheeler in the front, he was the one, he was riding the one in the back of the stack. So he was not too dumb to move the one in the frontbackwards and put the one that he wrecked in the front.

Speaker 4239.9s - 241.36s

He's done this before. He's noticed.

Speaker 1243.46s - 244.88s

That's bad.

Speaker 3245.88s - 247s

That's bad. That's bad.

Speaker 1247.16s - 247.72s

Pretty shady.

Speaker 3247.9s - 253.12s

I'm disappointed in him on that. But I'm going to give him a pass because I think he was concussed.

Speaker 1254.18s - 255.08s

It had to be.

Speaker 3255.32s - 267.66s

The shape that four-wheeler was in. But that's the second time he's rolled one over. So here's the, here's the moral of the story, boys and girls and kids out there. Because this happened with my father-in-law, Lars, from Europe LOC.

Speaker 2267.74s - 273.64s

If you remember a few months ago, he was fish tailing around a corner on a gravel road, and he ate it.

Speaker 3274.68s - 285.12s

And I heard him running real long. He was running down in the studio. I was at the house outside. And I just heard it hauling ass. And then I hear that stop. And I was like, boy, that was a sudden stop.

Speaker 1287.5s - 288.72s

And I didn't think much of it.

Speaker 3288.74s - 289.5s

Then I started hollering.

Speaker 1289.86s - 297.2s

Lars PERSON, Lars, Lars. I didn't hear anything. Then I started hollering again. Lars PERSON, Lars, Lars. Yeah. Are you okay?Yeah. I mean, he's about 300 yards away.

Speaker 2298.3s - 300.76s

And then I saw him, and he was all skin up and beat up.

Speaker 3300.84s - 329.04s

I'm like, what happened? So, anyway, there is a corner up here that people seem to like to fish tail and drift these four-wheelers around. And Washabaw PERSON told me the story of how he did. He said this was his tenth pass at it. Every time he was going fasterand faster, he said, it was awesome, man. You're sideways just sliding like a Tokyo GPE drifter. But kids, they will hook up. And when they do hook up, your ass goes to the dirt,hard. And it will kill you.

Speaker 1329.1s - 329.76s

You can kill you.

Speaker 3329.82s - 330.7s

It will kill you.

Speaker 1331.14s - 331.68s

Be careful.

Speaker 3332.8s - 334.22s

And then they'll try to hide it.

Speaker 1335.14s - 335.7s

I mean,

Speaker 3335.82s - 337.42s

they're dangerous as hell.

Speaker 1337.92s - 338.06s

Yeah.

Speaker 3338.06s - 338.76s

You have to get it.

Speaker 1338.76s - 349.18s

You have to park far enough away. You have to get off. Get on the other one. Back it up far enough. Oh, get off.Get on yours. Park it in there. Get off. Get on the other one. Put it up far enough. Oh, shit off, get on yours, parking in there. Get off, get on the other one. Put it right behind him. This is a 15-minute ordeal.

Speaker 3349.52s - 353.82s

And then Danny comes up in the middle of it and your days because you're wondering if you're caught.

Speaker 1354.18s - 354.34s

Right.

Speaker 3354.66s - 360.38s

So you start acting awkward and you're pretty beat up. Oh, look at his arm. That's his arm. Oh, geez.

Speaker 4360.74s - 361.86s

He's got rocks stuck in the skin.

Speaker 3361.86s - 365.16s

He had a ski jacket on and a long sleeve shirt.

Speaker 4365.68s - 367.16s

Think if he didn't have all that on.

Speaker 2367.52s - 368.72s

And we're looking at the stream.

Speaker 1368.88s - 370.54s

And Danny PERSON's no narc.

Speaker 3370.64s - 372.48s

I mean, I can imagine how difficult this was for him.

Speaker 1372.54s - 376.14s

Hey, man, I hate to tell stories out of school, but your friend's drunk.

Speaker 2377.8s - 379.42s

He is derrunk.

Speaker 3379.5s - 384.14s

He wasn't drunk, I don't think. I think he was just dazed and scared. He was concussed.

Speaker 1384.16s - 394.14s

Yeah. So, Wow. Wash your Christmas present for me this holiday season is me repairing my four-wheeler and not charging you for it. Merry Christmas.

Speaker 0394.54s - 396.22s

But did get a bus ball,

Speaker 2396.38s - 400.44s
