- 0:04Speaker 1: Name it, Name it? What is it?
- 0:08Speaker 2: Get out of the house. It's in the house.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Maren Marin, father Marinko, father from The Exorcist, Mike Coldfield.
- 0:18Speaker 4: And then this was a hit. This was like on
- 0:19Speaker 4: the radio to Mike Oldfield and tubular bells. It is
- 0:23Speaker 4: Mike Oldfield's birthday. He is now stop down on this
- 0:27Speaker 4: seventy three?
- 0:28Speaker 2: What was he twelve when he made those shows?
- 0:31Speaker 4: About just about he was because The Exorcist is more
- 0:34Speaker 4: than a fifty year old movie. He was nineteen and
- 0:37Speaker 4: cranked out kind of an instrumental progressive rock album in England.
- 0:42Speaker 4: And Billy Friedkin, the director of the Exorcist, was looking
- 0:46Speaker 4: for He had secured the services of have you ever
- 0:48Speaker 4: heard the name Lalo Schiffrin Nope, Big Times soundtrack got
- 0:54Speaker 4: He was sort of the Danny Elfman of his time.
- 0:56Speaker 4: Oh yeah, movie soundtracks, so many TV shows. Lalo Schiffriin
- 1:01Speaker 4: did the soundtrack of all the Mission Impossible movies, et cetera.
- 1:03Speaker 4: And I think the Mission Impossible. I think that's him.
- 1:08Speaker 4: And Billy Friedkin had secured him, and then he thought,
- 1:12Speaker 4: you know, I don't know if I need a whole
- 1:14Speaker 4: customized soundtrack for this little Exorcist movie I'm making, maybe
- 1:18Speaker 4: I can find something that's kind of out there that
- 1:20Speaker 4: I could easily get the rights for. He's thumbing through
- 1:22Speaker 4: demo pressings at a record company, finds Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells,
- 1:26Speaker 4: which was not written for the movie at all, and said, oh,
- 1:29Speaker 4: this is good. And the rest, as they say, is
- 1:32Speaker 4: movie and musical history.
- 1:34Speaker 2: So I wonder. I often wonder on a deal like that,
- 1:36Speaker 2: if a kid does that and and enters into an agreement,
- 1:40Speaker 2: if he gets residuals on it for the rest of
- 1:42Speaker 2: his life or was it a one off? Did he
- 1:45Speaker 2: just did fre just by the right.
- 1:47Speaker 4: Two I'm gonna give you two thousand dollars. Oh yes, so,
- 1:51Speaker 4: mister fake, and I would love that, thank you very much.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Right, or I'll give you a piece of of you know,
- 1:57Speaker 2: the profits or the rest of your life, which is
- 1:59Speaker 2: the way, you know a lot of these these TV deals.
- 2:03Speaker 2: Now all the ensemble and all the cast members have
- 2:06Speaker 2: residuals for life. But it didn't used to be that way.
- 2:09Speaker 2: In fact, I always heard the story about all in
- 2:11Speaker 2: the family, how only Carol O'Connor and and Norman Lear
- 2:16Speaker 2: were the They were the only two of all in
- 2:19Speaker 2: the Families company that got an agreement with residuals, meaning
- 2:23Speaker 2: that that Rob Reiner and Sally Struthers and Gene Stapleton
- 2:29Speaker 2: did not. So Carol O'Connor and Norman Lear were set
- 2:33Speaker 2: for life because with all the shows and reruns they got,
- 2:36Speaker 2: they got the residuals forever.
- 2:38Speaker 4: By Sally Struthers is so embittered for the rest of
- 2:41Speaker 4: her life.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Well you know there he's working. There, she's out doing
- 2:45Speaker 2: buzzing truck musicals and traveling, and you know, they and
- 2:48Speaker 2: they all they all worked to the end because you know,
- 2:51Speaker 2: Jeene Stapleton worked to because they had to. But now
- 2:55Speaker 2: you'd look at the kids, for those folks from the
- 2:58Speaker 2: Friends and all the shows, they are set forever. I mean,
- 3:03Speaker 2: my gosh, they don't have to. I guess.
- 3:05Speaker 4: I guess people did not envision much in the seventies,
- 3:08Speaker 4: the notion. I mean, obviously there was syndication. I remember
- 3:11Speaker 4: watching Andy Griffith as an older kid, long after Andy
- 3:14Speaker 4: Griffith was on actual TV anymore as a prime time
- 3:18Speaker 4: show tom. I guess they just weren't cutting those huge
- 3:20Speaker 4: Speaking of money.
- 3:22Speaker 2: I've got not gonna tell you. So no, no women
- 3:23Speaker 2: hold that thought.
- 3:24Speaker 4: Yeah, I have your Mike Oldfield money you first, and
- 3:26Speaker 4: then I'll tell you how much I tell you.
- 3:28Speaker 2: I'll tell you a funny story about Mayberry. I have
- 3:31Speaker 2: one of my bosses, and these days we all have
- 3:34Speaker 2: about thirty seven bosses, but one of them, one of
- 3:36Speaker 2: the big bosses. He whenever things get rough for him,
- 3:40Speaker 2: and there's a lot of challenges these days, and we
- 3:42Speaker 2: all have things in our lives. He just goes into
- 3:45Speaker 2: the living room, he turns everything off and he watches
- 3:48Speaker 2: He watches Andy Griffith re runs. Yeah, he does. I
- 3:52Speaker 2: watch it. That just brings him so much joy. I'm
- 3:56Speaker 2: like that with Deep I'll bet I've watched.
- 3:59Speaker 1: I like that with pulp fiction. No, I'm kidding.
- 4:01Speaker 2: I'm not kidding you. I'll bet I've watched every episode
- 4:03Speaker 2: of the five time. Just laugh. I want to laugh.
- 4:09Speaker 2: I want to get this weekend, I'm going to be
- 4:11Speaker 2: watching Beth Dutton and the Dutton Ranch. That's tonight. Well,
- 4:15Speaker 2: I'm traveling, so I'm not gonna be able to see
- 4:17Speaker 2: it till Monday. The hotel room doesn't have DVRs, you know,
- 4:22Speaker 2: so I'm kind of out of luck. But Paramount plus right, correct,
- 4:26Speaker 2: I can't wait, and I saw a little trailer of it.
- 4:28Speaker 2: It looks good, it looks good. And she's probably pretty
- 4:31Speaker 2: cranky because she's living now on a ranch. She's not
- 4:34Speaker 2: she's not in there in the city doing all these
- 4:36Speaker 2: legal deals.
- 4:37Speaker 4: Everybody sets fire to something, the standoffs, and we have
- 4:42Speaker 4: Ed Harris and oh yeah, oh.
- 4:47Speaker 2: I can't wait, and you get I guarantee you there'll
- 4:49Speaker 2: be people taking to the train station. I'm sure there'll
- 4:52Speaker 2: be people going to the train stays the train. Well, no,
- 4:56Speaker 2: it's a different train, different trains. They've changed the location
- 5:01Speaker 2: of Yeah, you.
- 5:02Speaker 4: Know, you know, and yet well you're about to know
- 5:05Speaker 4: in Yellowstone in sort of the early history of Yellowstone,
- 5:08Speaker 4: when somebody had to be gotten rid of they were
- 5:10Speaker 4: taken to the train station, which I'm guessing was somewhere
- 5:13Speaker 4: along the state line of Wyoming or something where there
- 5:16Speaker 4: was no police, no nothing. They were dumped off the
- 5:19Speaker 4: side of a cliff.
- 5:21Speaker 2: So wow, they didn't want to go to the train station.
- 5:23Speaker 2: You want to make field.
- 5:25Speaker 4: On tubular bells. No big upfront sinc fee or ongoing
- 5:28Speaker 4: film royalties. The real windfall for him came when the
- 5:31Speaker 4: movie became huge. He sold about fifteen million copies of
- 5:34Speaker 4: that album. So he made his money. Oh good, free
- 5:36Speaker 4: he done free.
- 5:38Speaker 2: By the way, will you stop sending me nasty articles
- 5:41Speaker 2: about Waimo. There's more to that story. There's more. Tell
- 5:45Speaker 2: everybody about the story you send about the wayward Waymos.
- 5:49Speaker 4: It has now become a bit. It was, it was real.
- 5:52Speaker 4: There was a time, and it was real. My abject
- 5:55Speaker 4: terror at driverless cars I'll never get in when I'm
- 5:58Speaker 4: sure to die. I no longer feel that way. I'll
- 6:00Speaker 4: still be very very when I do get into one,
- 6:03Speaker 4: which I will do, but I realize it's the future,
- 6:05Speaker 4: and here it comes, and I'm probably, on balance safer
- 6:07Speaker 4: in a driverless thing than I am with aid car
- 6:09Speaker 4: with the driver. So the every once in a while
- 6:12Speaker 4: one of these things will hit somebody, or every once
- 6:15Speaker 4: in a while there'll be some weird dysfunction. So I
- 6:18Speaker 4: texted my buddy Mike at five point fifty two this morning.
- 6:23Speaker 4: The headline is around fifty empty Way Mos invaded an
- 6:29Speaker 4: Atlanta neighborhood and circled a circled a cul de sac
- 6:35Speaker 4: for hours with no passage.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Your siege. It was a seat, It was an invasion.
- 6:41Speaker 2: There comyn and their interviewing.
- 6:44Speaker 3: The neighbors are like, this isn't safe for our kids,
- 6:47Speaker 3: and we're worried, and they're not gonna hit you, don't worry.
- 6:50Speaker 3: They're putting up fake pylons to try to block them
- 6:53Speaker 3: from entering the neighborhood and all that.
- 6:56Speaker 2: I mean, look, there's more to that story. There's no
- 6:58Speaker 2: way fifty way Moss would suddenly go into some suburban
- 7:01Speaker 2: neighborhood of Atlanta. I don't know what that's all about.
- 7:04Speaker 2: And I called you appropriately. You're way mophobic.
- 7:07Speaker 1: You are mophobic.
- 7:08Speaker 2: You are waymophobic. You are that you're afraid. You don't
- 7:11Speaker 2: need to be afraid. The machines are here. Man, did
- 7:13Speaker 2: it take off? Yesterday? I did data centers as a topic,
- 7:16Speaker 2: and man did my phones go crazy. People are real
- 7:20Speaker 2: fired up about these AI data centers happening all over there.
- 7:23Speaker 2: And you know what, as I researched it, you were right. Elon,
- 7:27Speaker 2: I think, is the one who suggested, let's put them
- 7:29Speaker 2: in space. Put them in space because the cooling. Obviously,
- 7:33Speaker 2: the sub zero temperatures you got, the cooling you got,
- 7:37Speaker 2: you don't have the land being taken over. And it
- 7:40Speaker 2: could I guess it could work I don't know.
- 7:42Speaker 4: I mean difference between your showing mind. As you take
- 7:45Speaker 4: to the air, you'll be the thing that I sent
- 7:47Speaker 4: you actually has about a minute and a fraction of
- 7:49Speaker 4: coverage from Atlanta about this right. You can find it,
- 7:52Speaker 4: curate it, your team will make it appropriate for your
- 7:54Speaker 4: radio broadcast and Salem News channel. Here in this world,
- 7:57Speaker 4: I'm gonna take my phone and hold it up to
- 7:59Speaker 4: the microphone for a couple of seconds, because here's this
- 8:01Speaker 4: may work.
- 8:02Speaker 2: This is this is h tech story high tech a.
- 8:04Speaker 5: Neighborhood cul de Sac.
- 8:05Speaker 1: The people living in the Northwest Atlanta neighborhood say dozens
- 8:08Speaker 1: end up circling their community. Timcho Steve Gelbach.
- 8:12Speaker 5: Is on one street where they want the weaymos to stop.
- 8:17Speaker 2: Make it stop.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Almost every little could a sack are they are? I
- 8:20Speaker 1: think it's a real problem.
- 8:21Speaker 5: Waimo after Waimo after Weaimo enter this dead ended street,
- 8:25Speaker 5: usually early in the morning.
- 8:26Speaker 2: I think yesterday morning we had fifty cars they came
- 8:29Speaker 2: to shopping.
- 8:30Speaker 5: Favor Battle Drive started almost autonomous rivalless cars two months ago,
- 8:35Speaker 5: but the groupings and large number of waymos just started
- 8:38Speaker 5: circling in and out in the last couple of weeks.
- 8:40Speaker 1: That's got to be a bit.
- 8:41Speaker 2: Video with us.
- 8:42Speaker 5: When neighbors used this little guy put them right out
- 8:45Speaker 5: here in the street to block the waymos from getting
- 8:47Speaker 5: into the cul de sac, and can imagine what happened next.
- 8:50Speaker 3: And we had at one point eight waymos that were
- 8:52Speaker 3: stuck trying to figure out how to turn around.
- 8:55Speaker 5: The waymos are empty and not picking anyone up. Parents
- 8:58Speaker 5: are worried, not only calling it excessive but dangerous.
- 9:03Speaker 1: We have animals and pets, animals quiet.
- 9:06Speaker 2: It just doesn't feel safe to have that traffic. Are
- 9:09Speaker 2: you triggered? It doesn't feel safe? Oh the driverless car,
- 9:13Speaker 2: well does They're just they're not gonna bother you, don't
- 9:15Speaker 2: you know, they're just driving around.
- 9:17Speaker 4: They're probably just they hit Ava in the episode of Hacks.
- 9:21Speaker 2: They I'm still I'm still annoyed at you for telling
- 9:24Speaker 2: me about that. I haven't gotten to that episode. Yet,
- 9:27Speaker 2: But it look things get looking like a plane can crash.
- 9:30Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I mean that things can go wrong.
- 9:33Speaker 2: But having waymo's driving around in the neighborhood and exactly
- 9:36Speaker 2: like locusts, you know, stripping the land of all of
- 9:39Speaker 2: the of the nutrients. Give me a break.
- 9:41Speaker 1: The locusts can't kill you.
- 9:43Speaker 2: That's fake news. That is fake That is fake news.
- 9:46Speaker 2: I'm telling you.
- 9:47Speaker 4: As your instinct, as always is correct. There's something we
- 9:51Speaker 4: don't know here, right? Can you well listen, mister expert?
- 9:54Speaker 4: Can I you have how many times have you done
- 9:57Speaker 4: a driverless cabrat?
- 9:58Speaker 2: A bunch? Oh, thirty, forty fifty A bunch of times? Sure?
- 10:02Speaker 1: Could I? Could you? And it involves having the way
- 10:04Speaker 1: moo app or something you call it and it comes
- 10:05Speaker 1: to you.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you summoned on the appuld It gives you
- 10:09Speaker 2: the number of the car. You You wait and it

- 10:44Speaker 4: if it's to pick somebody else up or something ostensibly,
- 10:46Speaker 4: I don't know.

- 10:59Speaker 2: Get on there's an explanation. I mean, look there, and
- 11:03Speaker 2: they're testing these waymos all over the country too. I
- 11:05Speaker 2: mean here in Tampa Bay you see a lot of
- 11:08Speaker 2: these Waymou vehicles with drivers in them because they're watching
- 11:11Speaker 2: them and they're monitoring them and all that. Look, it's
- 11:14Speaker 2: an amazing technology. It's where we're headed. Get ready for it?
- 11:17Speaker 2: And can I just can I end on a Friday
- 11:20Speaker 2: with just an incredibly inspirational story and I hope you
- 11:24Speaker 2: don't mind me taking sixty seconds to thank somebody in Dallas.
- 11:29Speaker 2: We're in the middle of our Angel Tree campaign and
- 11:31Speaker 2: this is a big springtime tradition for the Mike Gallagher Show.
- 11:34Speaker 2: You've helped me in the past. We send kids of
- 11:37Speaker 2: prisoners to summer camp. These are Christian summer camps, which
- 11:40Speaker 2: means that a lot of these kids who have parents
- 11:43Speaker 2: who are in prison are going to get to go
- 11:45Speaker 2: spend a week outside horseback riding, canoe and they're also
- 11:49Speaker 2: going to be They're going to learn about the Gospel.
- 11:51Speaker 2: They're going to learn about God, and many of these
- 11:53Speaker 2: kids they accept Christ as their savior. You're saving souls
- 11:58Speaker 2: and it costs two hundred dollars to sponsor a kid
- 12:00Speaker 2: for a week. Well, we're we got off to a
- 12:03Speaker 2: little bit of a slow start. Do you want to know?
- 12:05Speaker 2: Yesterday a guy in Dallas stepped up. I wanted to
- 12:08Speaker 2: get over one hundred sponsored kids for our first week,
- 12:11Speaker 2: you know, which is a big number. But look, we
- 12:13Speaker 2: got a huge goal. Like they Salem always gives me
- 12:16Speaker 2: these monster goals.
- 12:17Speaker 4: It's just a cursive success. Mike always does so great
- 12:21Speaker 4: versus all the other hosts. And he'll never tell you
- 12:23Speaker 4: about this, of course, but they see the bar is
- 12:25Speaker 4: set high for you.
- 12:26Speaker 2: Well they and that keeps me up at night because
- 12:28Speaker 2: I want I don't want to let the kids down,
- 12:30Speaker 2: and I don't want to let my company down. I
- 12:31Speaker 2: want to hit our goal. We got a goal. Of
- 12:33Speaker 2: six hundred and fifty children. So yesterday we were short
- 12:36Speaker 2: and we were under one hundred, and I said, if
- 12:37Speaker 2: we can just get to one hundred, do you want
- 12:39Speaker 2: to know there's a guy I'm not going to identify
- 12:41Speaker 2: him because he didn't give us permission, but I'll say
- 12:43Speaker 2: his name is Robert who stepped up yesterday from Dallas
- 12:47Speaker 2: and his family foundation gave us sponsored fifteen kids three
- 12:53Speaker 2: thousand dollars. That took us over one hundred kids. So
- 12:57Speaker 2: once again, the Mark Davis audience comes through. If you
- 13:00Speaker 2: feel like it on a Friday, if God has blessed you,
- 13:03Speaker 2: you want to tough forward?
- 13:05Speaker 4: Yeah what no thirty dollars fifty whatever you get imporved.

- 13:11Speaker 4: just want to have two, especially these days, right, I
- 13:14Speaker 4: just don't have two hundred dollars. Fifty take We'll take twenty.

- 13:19Speaker 4: you with fifty bucks, or ten of you with twenty.
- 13:21Speaker 4: We just sent another kid to camp.
- 13:22Speaker 2: Think about how these kids, through no fault of their own,
- 13:25Speaker 2: our home this summer. They have a parent or maybe
- 13:28Speaker 2: both parents in prison. It's a beautiful ministry. You remember
- 13:31Speaker 2: Chuck Colson who founded it many years ago, the Prison
- 13:33Speaker 2: Fellowship Ministry. It's called the Angel Tree Summer Camp Campaign.
