Do you believe in that? Oh, absolutely.

Clyde GordonGUEST
You know, you got the downtown clowns, you got the Southwest Rangers, you got the, they called the North side guys, long wallets.

Clyde GordonGUEST
Cause you know, they were all rednecks carried them big, long leather wallets back in the day.

Clyde GordonGUEST
You know what I mean? And, uh, I was one of those guys for a long time, but, um, uh, downtown the chiefs i always say that you know they kind of flew in on angel's wings and you know they made their plate and you know and uh they would eat and then they would fly off into their little hidey hole for the next four or five hours and you know and as long as the chief was out there that the guys were top notch as soon as he left you know they were just wild as indians you know so Um, I called myself a kitchen table chief.

Clyde GordonGUEST
isn't my intention, but I'm here to, I want to share things that mean something to me that it may help you, right? And so these guys are in trouble, right? And they're lost.

Clyde GordonGUEST
70% of them are found by somebody inside that building, whether it's himself or his own crew or somebody that goes, oh, shit, man, I was lost in that closet too.

Clyde GordonGUEST
That idiot's right over here, okay? And that's why we stay on the same channel, but I'll tell you from running a couple Maydays that it gets crazy, right? So those guys got to understand that there's a time where we're buddies and there's a time when I'm a boss.

Clyde GordonGUEST
Okay, because now I'm gonna tell him and I'm gonna figure out who that kid is.
