SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

The choice of a lawyer is an important decision and should not be based solely on advertisements.

Scott (0:30)

Hey, everybody, it's King Scott, and I'm thrilled to say that one of my favorite events is coming up Saturday, October 3rd, the seventh annual Meet on Main Festival, brought to you by Four Brothers Mead, right there in Fessas. And they have turned this into an absolute incredible party. It's free, it's family-friendly, and if you're like me and a real Viking, this is for you. They got live music, food trucks, real combat from the Legion of Honor, vendors from across the country, and of course, that delicious mead. Truly a super fun day. I will be there Saturday, October 3rd, 7th annual Mead on Main Festival forbillysmead.com. Sponsored by Festus Tourism.

SPEAKER_1 (1:04)

And now a word from our sponsor, Bud Light.

SPEAKER_3 (1:07)

There's nothing better than the clean crisp. There's nothing better than the clean crisp.

SPEAKER_1 (1:15)

What if we just got out of here and grabbed some Bud Lights?

Scott (1:17)

But man, we're on air for four more hours.

Rafe (1:19)

I'll figure it out.

Scott (1:21)

Sounds good to me.

SPEAKER_5 (1:23)

Anything for the clean, crisp taste of Bud Light.

SPEAKER_3 (1:25)

Stock up now.

SPEAKER_5 (1:27)

Bud Light.

Lern (1:27)

Easy to drink, easy to enjoy.

SPEAKER_3 (1:29)

Enjoy responsibly. Copyright 2026 Anheuser-Busch Bud Light beer, St. Louis, Missouri.

Rizz (1:40)

Oh man, it's fun. Hey.

SPEAKER_5 (1:43)

What are you doing here?

Rizz (1:44)

Hey, Rafe's here, but Moon's out.

Lern (1:47)

One in, one out.

Rizz (1:47)

One in, one out. That's fine. No, Moon is sick. And he, I tell you what, Moon at the end of the show yesterday, so around 9 15, 9 30, I look over and Moon sits to my left and I'm watching, I'm watching, I'm watching him steadily, like the energy drain.

Lern (2:06)

Energy down.

Rizz (2:07)

You know, he's the energy up guy. It was energy down.

And he was going downhill quick. He's like, ah, ah.

Lern (2:17)

Get out of here.

Rizz (2:17)

I'm feeling great. I go, dude, I'm sitting three feet away from you.

Lern (2:21)

Yeah.

Rizz (2:21)

I'm like, get the hell out of here.

Lern (2:22)

Get the hell out of here.

Rafe (2:24)

Keep that out of my life right now.

Lern (2:25)

Anytime any of us are sick, it's like, go home, leave.

Rizz (2:28)

Listen, this is the new, this will be the new directive. I don't need heroes. We don't need heroes.

If you're sick, like Scott's got a newborn at home.

Lern (2:36)

Right. That baby don't have all our germs yet.

Rafe (2:39)

I got a 21 year old dog.

Lern (2:40)

Right.

Rizz (2:41)

You got a 21 year old dog.

Lern (2:42)

A doggone hospice.

Rafe (2:43)

It catches a cold.

Lern (2:45)

I just don't want to deal with it.

SPEAKER_1 (2:46)

We're all busy.

Lern (2:48)

I'm on a very strict schedule every damn day. I can't, like if I get sick, I have to call two cities and get three different people to do my crap.

Rizz (2:58)

We're all busy.

Lern (2:58)

We're all busy.

Rizz (3:00)

Well, got stuff going on. So he didn't go to the Air Force Base yesterday.

SPEAKER_3 (3:03)

No.

Rizz (3:05)

For the special broadcast.

Lern (3:07)

Can you imagine if he would have infected the troops?

SPEAKER_3 (3:08)

I know.

Rizz (3:09)

Could have lost the war.

Scott (3:10)

Yep.

Rizz (3:11)

Could have lost the war.

Lern (3:12)

Right. We don't have time for this. The United States of America don't have time for this.

Scott (3:16)

No.

Rizz (3:16)

No.

Lern (3:17)

So thank you for staying home, Moon.

Rizz (3:19)

Well, he wanted to come in.

Lern (3:21)

I know.

It's like, no, no, no. Just shut up. Just stay home.

Rizz (3:26)

I told him, man. No.

Scott (3:28)

Uh-uh.

Rizz (3:29)

Uh-uh.

Lern (3:30)

We're not getting norovirus.

Scott (3:31)

I think we goofed up. We should have had him come in and we all stay home just so we don't get sick.

Rizz (3:35)

Man. I know.

Lern (3:37)

Do you feel okay? Did you Lysol that area?

Scott (3:39)

No, I didn't.

Rizz (3:41)

I took every vitamin I had at my house yesterday.

SPEAKER_1 (3:43)

Same.

Rizz (3:46)

Just in case. Need to boost my immune system.

SPEAKER_1 (3:48)

Yeah.

Rizz (3:49)

Vitamin D, vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C, all the vitamins.

Lern (3:54)

Good.

Rizz (3:54)

The alphabet of vitamins. Got them all.

That's what I did. Drank some tea.

Lern (4:00)

Good.

Rizz (4:01)

Yeah. So the new directive is, if you're sick, don't come in, please. Okay. That's great. Thank you.
