Speaker 1: Welcome, guys, to the world-famous Phil Hendry Show Radio Archive
0:03
Speaker 1: Hour here. Another one from our Radio Hall of Fame
0:06
Speaker 1: show and philhendryshow.com. This is an interesting hour. It was
0:09
Speaker 1: in February of 2003. We were in Aspen for the
0:12
Speaker 1: HBO Comedy Festival, the HBO Aspen Comedy Festival, which was
0:17
Speaker 1: an annual event. And it was a lot of fun.
0:19
Speaker 1: Met a lot of very talented and incredibly talented people.
0:23
Speaker 1: And we got to do our show for a solid
0:24
Speaker 1: week from the theater there. And this is Ted Bell
0:27
Speaker 1: and Bob Green in front of a live audience. talking
0:29
Speaker 1: about how they're raising money for an orphans fund for
0:32
Speaker 1: Iraqi veterans and Iraqi veterans' children. And they're very evasive
0:38
Speaker 1: as to how much money is going to go to
0:40
Speaker 1: the fund. You know the game that these guys play.
0:43
Speaker 1: Some of the audio is a little scratchy. It's a
0:45
Speaker 1: little rough. It's maybe over-modulated. It was a live performance.
0:49
Speaker 1: We were taking phone calls in a big room. Sometimes,
0:52
Speaker 1: you know, it's interesting, I think, too. But I think
0:56
Speaker 1: the comedy and the effort comes through. So here it is.
0:59
Speaker 1: From Aspen, February 2003, here on the world-famous Phil Henry Show.
1:03
Speaker 2: Broadcasting from Aspen, and we are at the HBO Comedy
1:06
Speaker 2: Arts Festival. With me is Ted Bell and Robert Green.
1:09
Speaker 2: They're on the line from Ted's at Beverly Hills. Bob,
1:11
Speaker 2: you're with Fraser Foods, right?
1:13
Speaker 3: That is correct, Phil. This is our second year we're
1:15
Speaker 3: involved in our Support the Troops program, and we're very
1:19
Speaker 3: proud to be doing that.
1:20
Speaker 4: And Ted, are you there?
1:21
Speaker 3: I'm right here, Phil. One of the things we wanted
1:23
Speaker 3: to say about our Support the Troops program is simply this.
1:28
Speaker 3: We looked around us, didn't we, Bob? Yeah. And we
1:30
Speaker 3: noticed that we did not see anybody in the business
1:33
Speaker 3: community really doing anything for our troops. You know, you
1:36
Speaker 3: can say a lot, but you can say what you
1:38
Speaker 3: want about the, you know, all of the other things
1:41
Speaker 3: that go on, you know, talking about President Bush and
1:43
Speaker 3: supporting the Congress. But who's supporting our troops, Phil, and
1:47
Speaker 3: who in the business community?
1:48
Speaker 4: Okay?
1:49
Speaker 3: Okay. is supporting our troops. And so that was the
1:53
Speaker 3: thing that I talked to Bob Green about, and Robert
1:55
Speaker 3: and I have been talking at length. We've had a
1:57
Speaker 3: couple of meetings with some of the community members, and
2:00
Speaker 3: that's why we wanted to have the Support Your Troops night.
2:03
Speaker 3: And we want to thank Ted Phil for donating the restaurant, too.
2:08
Speaker 4: Now, that'll be a week from tonight. That's March the 7th.
2:11
Speaker 3: That is correct, Phil.
2:12
Speaker 4: At your restaurant is Support the Troops Night.
2:15
Speaker 3: Because, Phil, again, I want to emphasize this. Nobody in
2:17
Speaker 3: the business community has been doing anything to support our troops.
2:20
Speaker 3: And let me say something, because maybe people haven't noticed this.
2:23
Speaker 3: We are about to go to war, W-A-R. And it's amazing, Bob,
2:30
Speaker 3: isn't it, how lightly people take this. It really is, Phil.
2:34
Speaker 3: We've got a lot of guys over there, 200,000 guys
2:36
Speaker 3: and gals ready to give it up for America. And
2:39
Speaker 3: no one in the business community is doing anything. And
2:41
Speaker 3: when Mr. Bell said that he wanted to have a
2:43
Speaker 3: support your troop night, I said to myself, this is a,
2:47
Speaker 3: in my opinion, an original idea. I couldn't believe that
2:49
Speaker 3: no one else had thought about it. But Ted Bell,
2:51
Speaker 3: of course, has been a leading figure in the business
2:53
Speaker 3: community in Los Angeles for a long time.
2:55
Speaker 4: Well, a leading member of the business community throughout the country.
2:58
Speaker 3: Well, I think so, Bill.
2:59
Speaker 2: All right, so I want to just say this to you.
3:02
Speaker 2: The support your troops may inhabit the lounge at Ted's
3:04
Speaker 2: at Beverly Hills.
3:05
Speaker 3: We're going to have it at all three of the
3:07
Speaker 3: Ted's at Beverly Hills restaurants in Georgetown, in Washington, D.C.,
3:12
Speaker 3: at the Walnut Creek, which is our new location, of course,
3:14
Speaker 3: the classic Ted's at Beverly Hills.
3:17
Speaker 4: Which is in Beverly Hills.
3:18
Speaker 3: Which is in Beverly Hills. And that's going to be
3:21
Speaker 3: this coming Friday night. What we're going to do is
3:23
Speaker 3: we're going to have a picture, a poster-sized picture. Saddam
3:28
Speaker 3: Hussein hanging in our lounge, and the people will be able,
3:33
Speaker 3: for $ 5, to throw a dart and try to assassinate
3:37
Speaker 3: Saddam Hussein. I think it's really a fun way to
3:40
Speaker 3: take out our anger against this guy, Phil. For $ 5,
3:43
Speaker 3: you get a dart, and if you hit him between
3:44
Speaker 3: the eyes, you've killed him, and you get a baked
3:47
Speaker 3: potato from the Beverly Hills baked potato trade. And that's
3:52
Speaker 3: something to do for the troops. $ 10 cover charge, Phil,
3:55
Speaker 3: two drink minimum. And, of course, the happy hour prices
3:57
Speaker 3: do not apply. But what we're trying to do, what
3:59
Speaker 3: we're trying to desperately do here, is we're trying to
4:02
Speaker 3: get business and we're trying to get the American people
4:05
Speaker 3: more to the point behind our guys.
4:07
Speaker 2: All right, so this is next Friday night, support our
4:10
Speaker 2: troops night. They're going to be throwing darts at a
4:13
Speaker 2: picture of Saddam Hussein.
4:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's $ 10 for a dog. And, Phil, Fraser Foods
4:18
Speaker 3: is supplying the baked potatoes that people can win. It's
4:22
Speaker 3: something we're doing. Here's the best part, and we didn't
4:25
Speaker 3: bring this up. All of the money, outside of costs,
4:29
Speaker 3: most of the money, I should say, will go to
4:32
Speaker 3: the military orphanage fund for the children of our guys
4:36
Speaker 3: who died in action, Phil.
4:38
Speaker 4: Well, I've got to tell you, that's a wonderful thing.
4:40
Speaker 3: Thank you. I think it's great, Phil. Ted doesn't pat
4:44
Speaker 3: himself on the back enough, but I think it is. Really, Ted,
4:48
Speaker 3: congratulations on that.
4:49
Speaker 4: It's a wonderful thing, Ted. So all the money is
4:52
Speaker 4: going to go to this fund.
4:52
Speaker 3: The money after expenses, Phil, will go to the Military
4:55
Speaker 3: Orphanage Fund. You see, Phil, here's how it is, and
4:59
Speaker 3: I said to myself, I said to Bob, I said
5:01
Speaker 3: to Teddy Newland over there at Independent Films, I said,
5:04
Speaker 3: what are the guys, what are we doing in the
5:06
Speaker 3: business community for our guys in the field? What are
5:08
Speaker 3: we doing in the business community for our guys and
5:09
Speaker 3: gals over there that are putting their lives on the line,
5:11
Speaker 3: that are putting themselves in harm's way? See, I'm Ted Bell,
5:15
Speaker 3: and I don't go for half measures. I don't follow,
5:17
Speaker 3: I create. You understand what I'm saying? I think, Phil,
5:21
Speaker 3: what Ted represents to most of us is he does
5:24
Speaker 3: have a creative mind. And also, Phil, nobody is doing
5:28
Speaker 3: anything to remind the public that we're about to go
5:31
Speaker 3: to war. You know, all of the things that we
5:34
Speaker 3: see in the newspaper, we're about to.
5:36
Speaker 5: Go to war.
5:36
Speaker 3: And I think it's important. And regardless of what you
5:39
Speaker 3: think about the war, whether you're for it, whether you're
5:41
Speaker 3: against it, hey... Support our troops. Support our troops. That's
5:45
Speaker 3: exactly right.
5:45
Speaker 2: Well, I'm in favor of certainly helping our guys and
5:48
Speaker 2: our ladies in the field with whatever. I want to
5:51
Speaker 2: give our phone number.
5:55
Speaker 4: Out. It's 1-800-449-8686.
5:57
Speaker 3: 1-800-449-8686.
5:57
Speaker 2: We're talking with Ted Bell from Ted's of Beverly Hills
6:00
Speaker 2: and Bob Green from Frazier Foods.
6:01
Speaker 4: They have put together a support the troops night.
6:05
Speaker 2: Ten dollars buys you a dart and you can throw
6:07
Speaker 2: it at Saddam Hussein and try to assassinate him.
6:09
Speaker 3: Right, Ted? Yeah, that's exactly right, Phil. And 90% of
6:13
Speaker 3: the proceeds go to the Military Orphanage Fund. And if
6:16
Speaker 3: you hit them between the eyes, let me tell you what,
6:18
Speaker 3: you've just assassinated Saddam Hussein. It's just a lot of fun,
6:21
Speaker 3: and you'll get yourself a baked potato and go out
6:22
Speaker 3: and get yourself a steak, too. At Ted's in Beverly Hills,
6:25
Speaker 3: we have three big locations, of course, in Georgetown, Walnut Creek,
6:28
Speaker 3: and the classic Ted's in Beverly Hills in the Beverly
6:32
Speaker 3: Hills area. So, Bob, did you want to add anything?
6:35
Speaker 3: I just want to say, Phil, again, that it's sad
6:38
Speaker 3: that nobody in the business community has picked up and
6:40
Speaker 3: run with the ball until we have come up with this.
6:44
Speaker 3: And we're trying to let people know, Saddam Hussein, this
6:47
Speaker 3: is not a good guy. Absolutely not. This guy, Saddam Hussein,
6:50
Speaker 3: has done some things....
6:54
Speaker 4: Well, he's gassed people.
6:56
Speaker 3: I was going to say that he's gassed people. He
6:58
Speaker 3: has done a number of things that one could say
7:02
Speaker 3: I wouldn't do them, and I know that you wouldn't either, Bob. No,
7:04
Speaker 3: I wouldn't. And a lot of people, I think, need
7:07
Speaker 3: to understand war is hell. Phil, I was in the
7:10
Speaker 3: United States Air Force myself. There's nothing like being in battle.
7:14
Speaker 3: It's a terrible thing, but we've got to do it.
7:16
Speaker 3: And fortunately, I've been through war, and I don't get
7:19
Speaker 3: skittish the way a lot of people do. And I
7:21
Speaker 3: was also, Bill, ROTC. Of course, I trained and did
7:27
Speaker 3: a lot of things. I think the American people are scared.
7:29
Speaker 3: And what we're saying is don't be scared. Join us
7:32
Speaker 3: for our Support the Troops night.
7:33
Speaker 4: All right. Support the Troops night, March the 7th. Proceeds
7:38
Speaker 4: go to the Military Orphanage Fund.
7:40
Speaker 3: That is correct. Eighty percent of the proceeds will go
7:42
Speaker 3: to the Orphanage Fund. Now, the business community needs a
7:45
Speaker 3: good swift kick in the rear end because they're doing
7:49
Speaker 3: nothing for war awareness. We out here at Ted's at
7:52
Speaker 3: Beverly Hills and Frazier Foods are finally doing something for
7:56
Speaker 3: war awareness. And here's the other thing. Can I tell them, Bob? Yeah,
7:59
Speaker 3: go ahead. Our women's restroom at 10th and Beverly Hills,
8:03
Speaker 3: this is great. This is something for the gals. We
8:06
Speaker 3: have painted a picture of Saddam Hussein on the bottom
8:08
Speaker 3: of the toilet, and the hole is the mouth. Is
8:12
Speaker 3: that right? That's the mouth. That's something for the gals.
8:15
Speaker 3: And they can have fun, and they can go in
8:16
Speaker 3: and do whatever they need to do, and there's Saddam
8:18
Speaker 3: Hussein's face down there, and you give it a flush.
8:22
Speaker 3: It's just a little.
8:23
Speaker 2: Well, okay, so in other words, this is a night
8:25
Speaker 2: where you're basically humiliating Saddam Hussein in a number of
8:28
Speaker 2: A number of different ways.
8:29
Speaker 3: Absolutely. But more importantly, Phil, I see on Ted Bell,
8:33
Speaker 3: and what I do better than anybody is I remind
8:35
Speaker 3: people in the business community, and I remind your listeners,
8:38
Speaker 3: the average American, excuse me, have you heard? We may
8:42
Speaker 3: go to war. Because these people are obviously watching too
8:47
Speaker 3: many cartoons or whatever's going on. I don't think the
8:49
Speaker 3: American people have got it down yet, Phil. That's what
8:52
Speaker 3: we're going to do, and I think for our part,
8:54
Speaker 3: we're very proud of that. People don't know that Saddam
8:57
Speaker 3: is evil, Phil. Americans have become deaf and dumb to
9:00
Speaker 3: what's going on. They need to know that this guy's bad.
9:02
Speaker 4: Do you think the American people are not aware of
9:04
Speaker 4: how bad he is?
9:04
Speaker 3: Oh, not at all, no. I think they think he's just...
9:08
Speaker 3: I think he's another towelhead filled with a mustache or something.
9:11
Speaker 3: He's not really a guy to be afraid of. So
9:14
Speaker 3: when we have our Support the Troops night, and 65%
9:18
Speaker 3: of our profits go to the kids there in the...
9:20
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, what's the name? It's the military. It's a
9:24
Speaker 3: fund for kids whose dads died in a war.
9:27
Speaker 4: You said the military orphanage fund.
9:30
Speaker 3: Yes, the military orphanage fund. We're making a statement unlike
9:34
Speaker 3: anybody else in the business community. I'm proud of that, Phil.
9:37
Speaker 3: I'm very, very proud of that.
9:39
Speaker 2: All right, well, guys, I've got to say, I think
9:41
Speaker 2: what you're doing is right now, a percentage of the
9:43
Speaker 2: profits you have to cover, obviously, your employees for the evening.
9:48
Speaker 3: Right, 60% to 65% goes to the kids in the hospital.
9:49
Speaker 3: All right, 1-800-449-8686. Robert Green and Ted Bell, they're two
9:50
Speaker 3: businessmen in the Los Angeles Southern.
9:59
Speaker 2: California business community who are, their intent on supporting the troops,
10:04
Speaker 2: they're going to have a support the troops night. They're,
10:06
Speaker 2: you know, for $ 10 you can come in or $ 5,
10:08
Speaker 2: whatever it was.
10:09
Speaker 4: I forget.
10:10
Speaker 2: It was $ 10. You can throw a dart at Saddam
10:11
Speaker 2: Hussein's face and a portion of the proceeds, and I
10:15
Speaker 2: forget what he said, 60%?
10:16
Speaker 4: He said 75? 75%.
10:19
Speaker 2: 65% goes to the military orphanage. And that's for the
10:24
Speaker 2: kids whose fathers and mothers have died in combat. It's
10:28
Speaker 2: a good cause. I just don't know about, you know,
10:33
Speaker 2: how much money he's giving to the orphanage. But let's
10:34
Speaker 2: get some phone calls on this.
10:37
Speaker 3: 1-800-449-8686. 1-800-449-8686.
10:38
Speaker 2: Ted Bell from Ted's at Beverly Hills Restaurant and Bob
10:43
Speaker 2: Green from Frazier Foods.
10:44
Speaker 4: And we'll be right back. This is the Phil Henry Show.
10:46
Speaker 4: We're live in Aspen.
10:50
Speaker 3: The Phil Hendry Show is back.
10:59
Speaker 1: Ted's at Beverly Hills Steakhouse, come on down.
11:06
Speaker 3: Say hello to everybody. Here I go.
11:14
Speaker 4: Am I on? You're on right now.
11:18
Speaker 3: Yeah. Did I?
11:19
Speaker 4: Hey, hold on, Ted. Go ahead and say what you
11:22
Speaker 4: want to say, because I can hear you're in that restaurant.
11:24
Speaker 3: That restaurant's my restaurant, Phil.
11:26
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. They're where you are.
11:28
Speaker 3: All right. Come on down. We've got the pork loin
11:30
Speaker 3: this weekend, but this is the last weekend for the
11:32
Speaker 3: pork loin. Now, that's slow-roasted. and then we take it off,
11:36
Speaker 3: we carve it up, we throw it on that plate,
11:38
Speaker 3: we slap on some vegetables, we throw stuff onto the plate, meat, sauce, vegetables, potatoes.
11:44
Speaker 3: It's fantastic. We'll just slap it on there and throw
11:46
Speaker 3: it on your table. It's great, and it's right there.
11:49
Speaker 3: Ted to Beverly Hills, downtown.
11:51
Speaker 4: Beverly Hills.
11:52
Speaker 3: That's right. You know, we've got so many stores opening now.
11:56
Speaker 4: All right, we're on with Ted and Robert Green. It
11:58
Speaker 4: is a Support the Troops night, one week from tonight.
12:03
Speaker 3: That is correct, Phil. It's going to be a $ 10
12:05
Speaker 3: cover to get in and throw a dart at Saddam Hussein.
12:07
Speaker 3: It's a lot of fun.
12:09
Speaker 4: And if they hit the bullseye, what do they get?
12:10
Speaker 3: They get a baked potato. And those baked potatoes, Phil,
12:13
Speaker 3: are supplied by Fraser Foods, and there's a partnership with
12:16
Speaker 3: Ted Bell.
12:17
Speaker 4: All right. The only thing I wanted to say is
12:19
Speaker 4: how much money is going to the military orphanage?
12:23
Speaker 3: Well, I think we made that clear, and I've got
12:24
Speaker 3: to get my accounting guys in here, but 50% is
12:28
Speaker 3: going to the orphanage for the kids.
12:30
Speaker 4: All right, 50%.
12:31
Speaker 3: That is correct.
12:33
Speaker 4: All right, 1-800-449-8686, 1-800-449-8686.
12:35
Speaker 2: Your big point, though, is nobody in the business community
12:39
Speaker 2: is doing anything for the troops.
12:41
Speaker 3: Absolutely, Phil. When I look around and I see what
12:43
Speaker 3: the business community in this country is doing to support
12:46
Speaker 3: our troops, I want to retch. I want to literally,
12:49
Speaker 3: I just want to pitch up what's left of Ted's
12:53
Speaker 3: pork loin, because I don't see the business community doing
12:57
Speaker 3: what I do. See, I'm Ted Bell, and I step
12:59
Speaker 3: out in front. I step out in front, and some
13:02
Speaker 3: business people will follow. And we at Frazier Foods, Phil,
13:05
Speaker 3: are appreciative of that.
13:06
Speaker 4: All right, 1-800-449-8686. Here is Will. Go ahead. You're on
13:09
Speaker 4: the Phil Henry Show.
13:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, hi. I applaud your efforts.
13:14
Speaker 2: I agree the opportunity is a great way.
13:18
Speaker 3: To support our troops, support the operations that may occur
13:22
Speaker 3: from the war. But I think... You know, you could
13:25
Speaker 3: do a little more. You kind of varied your percentage
13:28
Speaker 3: going to the actual orphanage. You know, one is a.
13:31
Speaker 6: Dark picture, which is insane, and some potatoes cost.
13:34
Speaker 3: I mean, that can't be absorbed.
13:35
Speaker 4: You can't go the extra.
13:37
Speaker 3: Mile and pay 100% of the proceeds. Well, to answer
13:42
Speaker 3: your question, Will, I think it's a good question. I
13:45
Speaker 3: have overhead. I have certain costs. Forty-five percent to 50%
13:50
Speaker 3: is going to the kids.
13:52
Speaker 2: But here's what I think the gentleman's saying. You said
13:54
Speaker 2: it was 60%. I've got to get the numbers here.
13:56
Speaker 3: I don't know. But we do have costs. But, Will,
14:02
Speaker 3: are you in business? Yes. Will? Yes. Are you in business?
14:07
Speaker 2: Yes, I am, and I understand what it takes to
14:09
Speaker 2: run a business.
14:11
Speaker 7: I know payroll is poor, but let me just say
14:15
Speaker 7: this because.
14:15
Speaker 3: I'm coming up here. You guys get out there and
14:17
Speaker 3: do something, you know?
14:17
Speaker 7: Maybe you're listening to your radio.
14:19
Speaker 3: Okay. one hundred fourth i don't know what he said
14:25
Speaker 3: well he basically he said phil that he does have
14:28
Speaker 3: a business but he's not going to do anything for
14:30
Speaker 3: our troops he's going to teach you see i love
14:32
Speaker 3: how people call up and and uh... i can't jump
14:36
Speaker 3: in phil because this is a big point everybody wants
14:38
Speaker 3: to jump down ted's throat because he's only giving fifty
14:41
Speaker 3: percent the fact of the matter is america is filled
14:43
Speaker 3: with businessmen who aren't giving nickel one uh... they're sitting
14:47
Speaker 3: there they're going home they're fretting over the newspaper they're
14:50
Speaker 3: buying duct tape and looking like uh... utter cowards I
14:54
Speaker 3: was in the military. I can tell you, I saw
14:56
Speaker 3: it all. And I think it's sad that a guy
14:59
Speaker 3: like Ted can come on and donate money and everybody else,
15:02
Speaker 3: they're not doing anything.
15:04
Speaker 4: Nobody's criticizing Ted.
15:05
Speaker 3: Well, that's all I'm hearing is criticism.
15:07
Speaker 4: No, nobody's criticizing. They're saying that the percentage is very.
15:12
Speaker 3: I said we're giving 40%.
15:13
Speaker 4: No, you said you were giving 45 to 50.
15:17
Speaker 3: Well, the numbers vary depending upon how many people give
15:20
Speaker 3: it an answer on. Phil, you're not in business. You
15:23
Speaker 3: don't own your own business, so you don't understand how
15:25
Speaker 3: these things go. All right.
15:28
Speaker 2: 1-800-449-8686.
15:29
Speaker 3: Bill, go ahead.
15:29
Speaker 4: You're on the Phil Henry Show.
15:33
Speaker 3: Hello. Yes, sir. Go ahead.
15:36
Speaker 7: I just don't understand where these percentages are going. You
15:41
Speaker 7: started off, I've been listening to your show for about
15:42
Speaker 7: 10 minutes now. When I first tuned in, it was 90%.
15:46
Speaker 7: Then it went down to 75%.
15:47
Speaker 6: That's true.
15:48
Speaker 3: That's true.
15:49
Speaker 7: Now we're down to 60% and 45%. What percentage is
15:52
Speaker 7: actually going?
15:53
Speaker 3: We are giving. I'm sorry, Bill, if I've been confusing,
15:56
Speaker 3: because when you are in a fluid situation like a
15:59
Speaker 3: restaurant business, your overhead can shift. Now, are you in
16:02
Speaker 3: business for yourself? No, I don't buy it.
16:06
Speaker 4: I don't mind at all. You have to fix the figure, Ted.
16:10
Speaker 4: You have to.
16:10
Speaker 3: Phil, it floats. It's a floating figure. We are between 35%
16:16
Speaker 3: and 40%.
16:17
Speaker 4: All right, so that's down to 40%.
16:19
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, sir?
16:22
Speaker 7: Now you're down to 35% to 40% of the growth
16:24
Speaker 7: that will actually go to these kids.
16:28
Speaker 3: Let's ask a question I think that's a better question
16:30
Speaker 3: to ask. What are you doing to support our troops?
16:31
Speaker 3: Are you a businessman?
16:33
Speaker 7: That's not my question. My question to you is, My
16:36
Speaker 7: question to you is, what is the percentage that you
16:39
Speaker 7: are actually going to.
16:40
Speaker 3: Give of your growth?
16:43
Speaker 7: If you're legitimate, if you're legitimate, you're getting hundreds of
16:48
Speaker 7: thousands of dollars of free advertising right now, not only nationwide, but.
16:54
Speaker 3: All over the world.
16:56
Speaker 7: That's going to cover your cost of one night. a
16:59
Speaker 7: hundred times over. You know that, and I know that
17:02
Speaker 7: if you're really in business.
17:03
Speaker 3: Can I jump in? This is Bob Green, Bill. All
17:05
Speaker 3: over America today, I see people raising money for AIDS,
17:08
Speaker 3: for breast cancer, abused kids.
17:12
Speaker 7: You're changing the subject.
17:14
Speaker 3: We want to raise money for our troops, and guys
17:17
Speaker 3: like you won't let us do it, and I think
17:18
Speaker 3: it's sad. I don't think... Give a figure.
17:20
Speaker 4: There's no reason why 100% of this can't go.
17:28
Speaker 3: But if you want to give 90%, give 90%.
17:30
Speaker 7: Anything below 90%, it's a farce.
17:33
Speaker 3: It's an absolute farce. I want to say something, Bill.
17:36
Speaker 3: If you're not doing anything for a truth, if you're
17:39
Speaker 3: not doing anything for a truth, you might as well
17:40
Speaker 3: get on your knees in front of Saddam Hussein and swallow.
17:42
Speaker 4: All right, listen. There are... Bill, are you there? I
17:46
Speaker 4: guess Bill hung up. Our number is 1-800-449-8686.
17:48
Speaker 3: 1-800-449-8686.
17:49
Speaker 2: We're talking to Ted Bell and Bob Green.
17:54
Speaker 4: I didn't like that swallow crack either. I thought that
17:56
Speaker 4: that was.
17:58
Speaker 3: Phil, I'm going to tell you something. I'm Ted Bell.
18:00
Speaker 3: What I've done for our troops, I don't see any
18:03
Speaker 3: other businessman in this country. It's true, Phil. This is
18:06
Speaker 3: Bob Green. I don't think any other businessman is doing
18:09
Speaker 3: what Ted Bell is doing. And yet people call up,
18:12
Speaker 3: and it's almost like that old saying, never look a
18:14
Speaker 3: gift horse in the mouth. Well, I see a lot
18:16
Speaker 3: of people out there taking a look in the mouth
18:20
Speaker 3: of the horse.
18:21
Speaker 4: They're looking at the teeth of the, yeah.
18:23
Speaker 3: And they're looking into the horse, and they're not saying, hey,
18:26
Speaker 3: Ted Bell, you're doing a great thing. Frazier Foods is
18:29
Speaker 3: proud to be associated with Ted's of Beverly Hills, all
18:32
Speaker 3: baked potatoes provided by us.
18:33
Speaker 2: You know, guys, a lot of what you're saying is
18:36
Speaker 2: beginning to sound like one long commercial.
18:39
Speaker 4: That's what people are reacting to.
18:40
Speaker 3: Oh, I see. Okay, so in other words, I can't
18:43
Speaker 3: do anything for our troops because it sounds like a commercial.
18:45
Speaker 3: I think it's a sad, sad world.
18:47
Speaker 4: All right, 1-800-449-8686. Chase, go ahead. You're on The Phil
18:51
Speaker 4: Henry Show.
18:52
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, you're right.
18:54
Speaker 3: This is the first time I'm calling, but we'd like
18:57
Speaker 3: to know, does this.
18:59
Speaker 7: Sound like a commercial on the radio for free?
19:02
Speaker 5: I know it's.
19:03
Speaker 2: Trying to do for the troops.
19:06
Speaker 3: We're doing it for the troops in the field, sir.
19:09
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was just proper to the trial.
19:11
Speaker 3: You know, to the wounded troop trial, over 90% to 45%.
19:14
Speaker 7: And I'll back to you in about 10 minutes, it's
19:18
Speaker 7: going to be 35%.
19:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're hearing the figures shifting.
19:21
Speaker 3: Too, Chase. No, Mr. Sir, I think you're doing a
19:23
Speaker 3: disservice to our troops by saying that I'm lying. I
19:26
Speaker 3: said it's a fluid situation, it is very liquid, and
19:29
Speaker 3: it's just, it's something that's wet, I guess, is what
19:32
Speaker 3: I'm trying to say. Okay, 1-800-449-8686.
19:36
Speaker 2: Giving money for our troops, that's one thing, but are
19:39
Speaker 2: some of these businesses ripping people off?
19:41
Speaker 3: 1-800-449-8686.
19:41
Speaker 2: You're listening to The Phil Henry Show. We'll be back
19:45
Speaker 2: with Ted Bell and Bob Green in just a moment.
19:48
Speaker 4: The Phil Henry Show is back.
19:50
Speaker 3: The way this man's been treated, in my opinion, Mr.
19:52
Speaker 2: Henry.
19:53
Speaker 4: All right, hold on. We're back on the air. What
19:54
Speaker 4: did you want to say, Mr.
19:55
Speaker 7: Green?
19:56
Speaker 3: I want to say that the way Mr. Bell has
19:59
Speaker 3: been treated on your program.
20:00
Speaker 4: Now, hold on. These are my listeners calling in.
20:05
Speaker 3: I challenge your listeners, rather than make fun of whether
20:10
Speaker 3: I'm giving 40% or 50%, what's the difference? I'm giving
20:13
Speaker 3: money to the orphanage for military veterans. What are your
20:17
Speaker 3: listeners doing? Right now, Phil, the business people out there
20:21
Speaker 3: and the average citizen isn't doing anything. They might as
20:23
Speaker 3: well be over in Baghdad right now scrubbing Saddam Hussein's toilets.
20:27
Speaker 3: joining the Iraqi army or anything else, because I'm telling
20:30
Speaker 3: you right now, I'm Ted Bell. See, I don't need
20:32
Speaker 3: anybody telling me whether I'm doing something right.
20:35
Speaker 2: What we said was if you're giving money to the
20:37
Speaker 2: military orphanage, it's an admirable thing, Ted.
20:39
Speaker 4: I have nothing against that.
20:40
Speaker 3: Thank you, but you're also sticking up for your.
20:42
Speaker 4: Well, all I'm saying is, is it 30 percent? Is
20:45
Speaker 4: it 40 percent?
20:46
Speaker 3: No, I have the numbers right here.
20:48
Speaker 4: Go ahead, Bob Green from Fraser Foods.
20:50
Speaker 3: We are giving our Support the Troops night, which is
20:53
Speaker 3: Friday night, It'll be five bucks a dart. You can
20:56
Speaker 3: throw a dart at the Saddam Hussein poster. If you
20:58
Speaker 3: hit the bullseye, you get a baked potato off the
20:59
Speaker 3: baked potato tree. Plus, the women's toilet has a picture
21:03
Speaker 3: of Saddam Hussein on the bottom of the toilet.
21:05
Speaker 4: Well, how much is that costing?
21:06
Speaker 3: That's nothing. The ladies can go in and have at it.
21:09
Speaker 3: It's a great thing. Really what we're doing, Phil, is.
21:14
Speaker 4: How much are you giving to the orphanage?
21:17
Speaker 3: Phil, it's a fluctuating figure right now. We're talking 35%
21:20
Speaker 3: to 40%. That's right. Give or take a few. Because, again,
21:26
Speaker 3: you aren't in business, Phil. I am. And Ted is, too.
21:29
Speaker 3: And we know how it works. All right.
21:31
Speaker 4: I've never owned a business. You're right. I'm simply trying
21:34
Speaker 4: to say... We've got.
21:35
Speaker 3: To cover our costs. The other thing that we're doing
21:38
Speaker 3: that I wanted to mention, and I didn't want to
21:40
Speaker 3: say this on your program, because suddenly you go into
21:41
Speaker 3: the men's urinal, we've got pictures of Hussein in front
21:45
Speaker 3: of every urinal, and you can go ahead and slide
21:47
Speaker 3: it right at his mouth. What do you think of that? Oh, Jesus.
21:51
Speaker 3: I didn't want to say it on your program, but again, Phil,
21:55
Speaker 3: let me tell you something. I'm angry. I'm angry at
21:57
Speaker 3: what this guy Hussein's done. I'm angry at what they
21:59
Speaker 3: did at 9-11, and I want this guy out of there.
22:01
Speaker 4: I totally agree.
22:03
Speaker 3: Okay. So what is it with the pussyfooting?
22:05
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to get a hard and fast figure.
22:07
Speaker 4: That's all I'm trying to do.
22:08
Speaker 3: 1-800-449-8686. Here is Alex. Go ahead, Alex.
22:10
Speaker 4: You're on the Phil Henry Show.
22:14
Speaker 3: Hi there, Phil.
22:15
Speaker 4: Hi, how are you doing?
22:16
Speaker 5: Fine, thank you.
22:17
Speaker 3: But I've got to say, first of all, I don't understand.
22:20
Speaker 5: How is peeing on Saddam helping kids?
22:23
Speaker 3: I'm talking about, man, having some fun and getting your
22:26
Speaker 3: anger out at a guy who I think is an abomination. Yeah,
22:31
Speaker 3: but your whole thing is that this is a fundraiser.
22:33
Speaker 3: It's a good thing. We're here to raise money. I
22:35
Speaker 3: tried it earlier. I tried it earlier. It was fun.
22:37
Speaker 3: Tried what? Just, you know, the Hussain ad. It was great.
22:41
Speaker 3: But it's... Okay, well, that's the point. You're saying it's 30%, 50%. Yes, ma'am,
22:47
Speaker 3: I want to jump in. It gets people in the door.
22:50
Speaker 3: It gets people in the door. And then they go
22:53
Speaker 3: for the baked potato. Wait a minute, yeah. Potato guy? Hey,
22:55
Speaker 3: potato guy?
22:56
Speaker 6: I don't understand.
22:57
Speaker 3: What... How are you... I mean, why are you even
23:00
Speaker 3: doing this? I'm the CEO of a grocery chain. Why
23:03
Speaker 3: are we doing it? And you're donating potatoes? No, ma'am.
23:06
Speaker 4: Look, maybe you weren't listening, Alex. And, in fact, you
23:10
Speaker 4: probably weren't listening.
23:11
Speaker 2: What we're doing is you guys are donating money to
23:15
Speaker 2: a military orphanage that you're raising from people throwing darts.
23:18
Speaker 3: Is that right? That is exactly correct. And 25% to 30%
23:21
Speaker 3: will go to the military fund. What?
23:26
Speaker 4: What do you mean, what? 25 to 30 percent. This
23:29
Speaker 4: is what I'm talking about. This is what my listeners
23:31
Speaker 4: are talking about.
23:32
Speaker 3: 1-800-449-8686.
23:32
Speaker 4: Let me go over here to Dan. Dan, go ahead.
23:37
Speaker 5: Who the hell do you guys think you are?
23:38
Speaker 3: I'm sorry?
23:41
Speaker 5: Who the hell do you think you are?
23:44
Speaker 3: Who do you think you are? What are you doing?
23:46
Speaker 5: I'll tell you who I am, okay? I'm an American citizen.
23:50
Speaker 3: I live in Utah.
23:51
Speaker 5: I live in a state with a very serious... dedicated
23:55
Speaker 5: commitment to the united states military.
23:57
Speaker 3: Okay but you don't have to do you talk what
23:59
Speaker 3: are you going to like that's.
24:00
Speaker 5: Why we're going to date and it's my community let
24:02
Speaker 5: me talk okay i live in the state it's my
24:05
Speaker 5: community okay.
24:06
Speaker 3: We're donating football-sized potatoes.
24:08
Speaker 5: There will you let the guy talk no you're not
24:10
Speaker 5: donating that first you're donating eighty five percent of your
24:13
Speaker 5: profits Then you're donating 65, then 45, and now 25%
24:17
Speaker 5: of your profits.
24:19
Speaker 3: What do you get out? Let me ask you a question.
24:21
Speaker 3: Are you a businessman or are you not?
24:23
Speaker 5: I am a businessman, as a matter of fact. And
24:26
Speaker 5: if I were doing this, I would dedicate 100% of
24:29
Speaker 5: my profits.
24:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, but here's the key. You're not doing it, are you, Dan?
24:32
Speaker 3: Ted Bell is. Ted Bell is doing it. Ted Bell
24:35
Speaker 3: is doing it. Ted Bell is raping his customers.
24:39
Speaker 5: And Ted Bell is exploiting the war.
24:41
Speaker 3: Tell you what, why don't you do something good for
24:42
Speaker 3: your country? I'll tell you what, Mr. Bell.
24:45
Speaker 5: Why don't you go do something good for your country?
24:47
Speaker 5: Why don't you really put your money where your mouth is?
24:49
Speaker 5: Why don't you go pick up a gun and stand
24:51
Speaker 5: on that front line in the.
24:52
Speaker 3: Desert, huh?
24:53
Speaker 5: And then let me call you on a talk show.
24:54
Speaker 3: You go first. Yeah, well, you go first, okay? I'm
24:57
Speaker 3: a businessman, okay? I'll stand right there with you.
25:01
Speaker 5: I'll even load your gun to make sure you don't
25:03
Speaker 5: blow your own head off, okay?
25:04
Speaker 3: Well, you know something, Dan? It's funny, but let me
25:07
Speaker 3: ask you something, Brigham Young. Why don't you go back
25:10
Speaker 3: and start another Mormon community, all right? And I double
25:13
Speaker 3: dare you to go out and do for your country
25:15
Speaker 3: what I'm doing for our country.
25:16
Speaker 2: You may be doing something for the country, okay? You
25:18
Speaker 2: may be doing something for the country, but what you're
25:20
Speaker 2: doing varies. You're either doing 25% for the country. You're
25:24
Speaker 2: doing 30% for the country.
25:26
Speaker 3: Well, I've got the figures now. I'm sorry. Ed Ellington
25:28
Speaker 3: just came in with them. It's a 20%. It's 20%.
25:33
Speaker 4: Who's he? Is he the accountant or something?
25:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's doing some of the figuring for us on.
25:38
Speaker 4: The deal. 20%?
25:39
Speaker 3: Absolutely. Now, again, I've got to drive the potatoes over
25:43
Speaker 3: to the restaurant. I've got to pay the guy that
25:44
Speaker 3: does that. We've got to put the poster up. We've
25:47
Speaker 3: got to, you know... Let me ask you a question.
25:49
Speaker 3: Hand-painted pictures of Saddam Hussein on the bottom of the Ladies' John.
25:52
Speaker 3: What do you think? That's cheap? We've also got the.
25:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've got the Saddam Hussein heads where you can
25:57
Speaker 2: stick it in the mouth.
25:58
Speaker 4: Why don't you just not have those, have the dart game,
26:01
Speaker 4: charge a couple of bucks... You know?
26:03
Speaker 3: Oh. Well, look at you. You're trying to tell Ted Bell?
26:06
Speaker 3: I'm Ted Bell. No one tells me how to love
26:09
Speaker 3: my country or do things for my country. All right.
26:12
Speaker 4: I've got a gentleman on the line who's in the
26:13
Speaker 4: United States Air Force.
26:14
Speaker 3: Joe? Yes.
26:16
Speaker 4: Go ahead, Joe.
26:17
Speaker 6: How many children are in this orphanage of yours?
26:21
Speaker 3: It's not my orphanage, sir. It's an orphanage supported by
26:23
Speaker 3: the United States Army.
26:25
Speaker 6: Supported by the United States Army? Where is this located?
26:29
Speaker 3: Who wants to know?
26:30
Speaker 6: I do, because I'd love to send some money to them.
26:32
Speaker 6: I've been on active duty for 20 years. I've never
26:35
Speaker 6: heard of such a thing.
26:37
Speaker 3: There is a fund for children of men who've been
26:39
Speaker 3: killed in action. I've never been killed in action in the.
26:42
Speaker 6: Last 30 years.
26:42
Speaker 3: Excuse me, have you ever heard of Grenada, Panama, Desert Storm? Jesus.
26:50
Speaker 6: I lost people, and I got a pretty good idea
26:53
Speaker 6: of the casualty figures. I know what happened to those kids, okay?
26:57
Speaker 6: They go to the orphanage and they get taken by
26:59
Speaker 6: the family.
27:00
Speaker 3: Hey, Joe, and another thing.
27:01
Speaker 4: You ever heard of 9-11?
27:02
Speaker 3: A couple people died there, too.
27:04
Speaker 6: Yeah, lots of people died there.
27:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, so we're supporting them.
27:08
Speaker 6: Most of them were military. We're talking about a military orphanage.
27:12
Speaker 3: That's exactly correct, sir.
27:14
Speaker 6: A military orphanage funded by the U.S.
27:16
Speaker 3: Army. No, funded by Ted Bell and people of private donations.
27:20
Speaker 6: Oh, it's funded by private donations.
27:23
Speaker 3: Joe, I was in the Air Force. This is Bob Green.
27:25
Speaker 3: I was in the USAF. Where were you stationed?
27:27
Speaker 7: Tucson.
27:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, what base?
27:30
Speaker 6: Davis-Mauphin.
27:32
Speaker 3: Okay, I was in El Toro.
27:35
Speaker 6: Marine Corps Air Station.
27:37
Speaker 3: I'm sorry?
27:37
Speaker 6: That's the Marine Corps Air Station.
27:39
Speaker 4: Yeah, El Toro isn't Air Force. It's Marines.
27:41
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I said I was in the Marines. Oh,
27:45
Speaker 3: you want to laugh about that one now, huh? I

28:17
Speaker 3: Hey, Phil.
28:18
Speaker 8: These guys are really making me angry with the money thing.
28:23
Speaker 8: These guys are charging people at the door. You guys
28:26
Speaker 8: are clearly making money on this, and you're making money
28:29
Speaker 8: on the war.
28:30
Speaker 3: I already explained this to you, sir. I said that
28:33
Speaker 3: we have a fluid and floating deal. I'm very angry
28:37
Speaker 3: at Saddam Hussein, aren't you?
28:38
Speaker 8: I'm angry too, but this doesn't give you license to
28:41
Speaker 8: make money on the war, which is exactly what you
28:44
Speaker 8: guys will be doing.
28:45
Speaker 3: No, sir.
28:45
Speaker 4: I think this gentleman just hit the nail on the head.

Speaker 4: You're making money.
28:48

28:53
Speaker 3: first of all, as Bob pointed out, who do I
28:55
Speaker 3: pay to get the potatoes over to my restaurant? That
28:57
Speaker 3: costs money. Then I got to get.
28:59
Speaker 4: How much does that cost? 80% of the money that
29:01
Speaker 4: you're going to make that night?
29:03
Speaker 3: I'm a businessman, and I'm Ted Bell. All I'd like
29:06
Speaker 3: to say is this. Anybody who is a patriot, come
29:08

Speaker 3: You want to know why?
29:21
Speaker 8: I cannot imagine spending money there.

29:25
Speaker 3: to go and join the Iraqi army. Go on over there. No, no.

Speaker 3: Have yourself a good time. Allison, Matt, I was in
