Okay, so I got a fan this weekend because my life is terrible. and now I guess I have to tell y'all all about it. I try to keep this kind of stuff to myself Because when I say it out loud, it doesn't sound good. It doesn't make me feel good about my life. Right It just is weird, you know So my roommate and firstborn son, Kevin The dog. Kevin, my dog. Not the partner. We've got not just not when you refer to Ke thinking that you're whipping him and all that. and you don't clarify Be most humans don't name their dog Kevin. Okay G. that's a person's name Or my dog's name. You heard of Bowser or something like that? Kevin two weirdest pet names in my lifetime was a cat named Doug. this dog Kevin. Exactly.s very confusing. Doug Very confusing. H Doug, full name Kevin Bret Michaels Trquarius Adler. It's neither here nor there. So why the fan U, So this whenever I got a side yard, I live in this like triplex, I guess you could say And this side yard that I've got. is awesome for Kevin. G for him. And I do a little bit of spray painting out there too. prettyret cool. Oh my go. I get pretty cool out there doing some rose painting free handand sprayed pain. Yeah, man. Yeah, man But y'all, I take Kevin out about four times a day. And I get bit by mosquitoes threeree mosquitoes every time I go out there, at least sameame I think it's the same three Something they have? What's it a mosquito youth gang for you. They're p on They're rough and tough guys. Aar crkking little man, No, I'm serious. He was afraid they ever gonna fly off with him So quick we start spraying. I'm going' as big as hand. They're mosquites to us, They're hawks to. I don't attack but. I've run for cover, y'all. I'm going little feet, leave the ground for just a moment I've gone to great lengths to try to avoid getting bit y'all. I'm serious. I have worn Long sleeves and like a rain jacket in like one hundred degree weatherpell, it's real bad. What about the candles you like? There's other things. Oh, so I'm supposed to just carry a candle away Y off. look, that's different. O. lot.. Have you ever heard of Collie Cooks pest control for their mosquito treatment? Well, that's a good idea. Actually, that is a solid idea Thank you neighbors little neighb I've got a cafe right across the street from me. So like tons of people are walking past all the time. So there are people that can see me when I'm out there. I've worn like rangeall J justust refer to it as a restaurant. It's ye. don't say cafe. Okay. y'all, I've seriously this is my move this has been my move for a while, but I think mosquitoes are catching on rightight here. This is what I'll do as I'm serious. Kevin will be doing his business, you know, arching his back and pooping This is what I'm doing waiting for him to finish up. sereriously in order to in order to stop not get bit You're waving your arms Does that work? Okay, you work You know look like you're getting loose'renasty. You're in a jacket like that a guy that everybody thinks something's wrong with him.'s gone He ain't. He' homeless. My boy lives across from us. hisis mind not like it's supposed to be. He starts filing around every time he comes out. There was a guy in Aniston we used to see him and he would be punching people that weren't there.' fighting him He might be you're mosquitoes. Either either that, Greg, either that or he's the enthusiastic little Troubador that's leading the parade through the southide. He's owning. Now I know why the local homeless people don't mess with me because they think I'm just one of them. They think you mind's me. now I know. They think you're not like supposed to be. Yeah Be in the restaurant, Rick across the way and see I like Can you imagine that Y'all's bad. It's bad, y'all. I I've seriously get back twelve bites a day. You got little wipes I'm supposed to walk around smelling like deet. G. That's great. I think that for the land. So what are you doing? And so now I've got a fan. Great for the ladies. Now this isn't a little fan. This is one like one of those nice fans. Who told you this would work Babible. not buing no, just this is me this is my brain working It me I don't to take credit for this piece. Kevin, Kevin, give you this idea. So what I did, I took an extension cord ran it out my window and it's now it's hanging out my window of my house. Dangling out. Dangling out the window. mosquitoes can get in there. And then it's closed pretty good. I got it closed pretty good, Greg. They don't need a lot of I'm gonna take some silly putty and seal it real good and leave it hanging. And so Then I'm gonna plug that fan in and then boom, set What do you mean? boom? What do you do with your f No, I'll stand in front. I'll stand in front of. finger We're gonna carry a fan out to the front yard every time you got up. Now this is easier than lightin a can. Y'all' understand. Yeah right every time every time you go outside for your dog, first of all, you got to examine your life When part of your day is standing around patiently while a dog poops waiting for poop. Okay, first of all, I can't even I can't even comprehend that even being in my day. They don't tell you that when you get a puppy, your day is going to start and it's gonna be centered around feces. They don't tell you that when you're getting a puppy. I think we told you that when you were getting. Have youve seen's why this thing you hang off your side now that puts out stuff that you don't have to get it on. You put it like it looks Of all the m a fan smack you. put it a d. put a dry. You see. they've got to Yeah, that you lie and you just keep it around you and it runs into bl. That's what I tell. You can also put a dryer sheet, you know, kind of on the bl. That looks dumb, but a fan don't. Let me get inside his mind. Doesn't fan doesn't Of all the off all the things that we've mentioned, he thinks taking a fan Yeah, running extension cord out his window and turning a fan on every time his dog poops that that that that's less of a hassle than these other options we' thrown out And you blowing doll poop some aail everywhere now Yeah That has nothing to do with it. Gre. I'm on the patio. Fans on the patio, Greg, not Greg. Kevin's out in the yard pooping. notot Greg's out in the yard pooping. I was not misspoke And so it's there's a separation factor. I'm not blowing poop air everywhere. Well'm just taking him a walk letting him poop along the way s it's just inside yard. don't whyon't you put him in the yard and when he's done, let him back in. He It would be cheaper to have the little thing hanging on your side or a candle than a fan That f You don't the fanss going work. And whyy do you think the fan works? It's gonna to look like a fannyack somehere. You're trying to make me look I'm wearing. how long is do going to be out there? utes Look, a fann packs least your worries. Come on, it ain't going Ohh boy, I was looking sharp till I put this on. No. I was, Greg. I was. So Rin my You're gonna carry that big fan out. Yes. J stand there for three minutes. Mosquitoes, the anger and the sadness that I feel as' trying to avoid getting bit by mosquitoes. I'm like, hurry up Kevin. Do your business. Do your business, buddy. So you think it if's that fan blows that the mosquites won't bite you. We'll see, I had to get a high velocity fan, y'all. We'll see. hopefully it works out keep him a fingers straross part of my life. It's really messed up my life.

Rick Buba, Rickin Buba Adler took up an old pastime. frankly, I thought you were no longer doing. and that pastime. What kind of name is? It is Dog doog surfing. Dog surfing whereere Adler takes his dog Kevin and the asphalt and the concrete are like sharks. Right. They can come up and take a bite out of it and they get you every time went back to the park and let Kevin run whileile he held his harness at you know, high speeds on a skateboard to much to the thrill of all who were there. Yall want to see a video of that real quick. go again seven in the equals. Yeah and at least we can see what he at this is what he does. I mean, we're flying. L He's so happy right there. He's got skin on his hand. So When you He went to try to stop this time and his plan for stopping. correct me if I'm wrong is to release the dog, then stand up on the skateboard come off of it. come to a stop. But what you did not think of is if you let Kevin go and he cuts in front of the skateboard before you can get up and get off of it, then it turns into a horrible spill. And it turns into basically smashed into a brick wall So about skateboard braes? because you know, they make those, you know, where you can you can or break Yeah or you know, just to how to kind of breakash it now. Yeah. Or don't you pop a wheely and drag the back and go this speed, I really think that would blade that would end worse. blge. I mean roller blades Yeah roller blades. You know, normal people can't do it. not when you're dog Roller blades would be good. That's what Caesar Milanda does the dog whisperver whver okay, buddy? I think what kind it's not near mo You've took pain pills, a't? It's not near as cool. Have you ever let Kevin on the board and you drag him Think about it. Well, that would no, that wouldd be kind of weird. You talking about people look at you. Yeah. I don't think you can pass judgement what on weird I'm sorry. I didn't realize that'd be weird. It'd kind of weird. I s there with rarapping tape on your head. I'm gonna try one of these moments and sometimes they can they can hurt, but on the other side there's actually healing. Yeah. Your age again twenty seven At twenty seven. Ye years of eight. Listen, at twenty seven My father was in his third year.

I was concerned about his bones ones are fine. so that's good. Yeah, he'll bey to Y'all, I I fly through the air and I'm already thinking about How bad my hands are going to be hurting for weeks and weeks. Like I've already had that thought. I haven't hit the ground yet. and I'm just like, this is going to hurt so bad and I'm just gonna be this is gonna this sucks That's what I'm thinking in the air I hit the ground and there's remember, I'm in the gauntlet, so there's like fences with dogs going crazy. like there's a German shhepherd on this side and a bunch of like mean old tiny dogs, but they're real loud and real mean.

They have Franklin the dog. they have Kevin the dog Moulder, is that the cat's name Uh and and so so he he was in a situation where one of the dogs had a tick on it and he remembered and he has a fear of ticks But he remembered us talking about the way to get a tick offff properly from a human By the way, don't me repeat that again from a human would be to burn the tick with a match you just put out or something height but you When went to the break, it sounded like you were telling me that you were about to enact that strategy with a dog Yes I's going to try to do that basic that basic framework of a strategy. yes I was going to try to do. And like we said, Franklin is a basset hound and that is your wife's dog. let's not miss that. Sure. That's the dog she brought into the marriage. That's her That's her beloved Franklin. looves that dog. looves it more than me. And now has a tick on it and you're thinking something Is this the first time Franklin's ever had a tick? This is the first time I've ever to deal with a tick on a dog? I can't believe that. I know. I bet I've pulled off ten million ticks off. ten million. That's a big number That' a huge number Over one hundred thousand. Over one hundred thousand I was years old, I've been pulling ticks off since I was like four. That's two m. That's a pile bigger than Greg. So you're not experienced with ticks on dogs and you move in for a strategy that you thought you heard us talking about. Yeah. But I want to remind you again, that was for humans. For people. Yeah, who do not have fur all over the them Sure go ahead. Oh no. And Franklin's a very expressive dog. Like when he sits down You know it. He's like It makes a lot of noise. Yeah. Re expressive, you know, really stupid, really, really dumb. And a bit dramatic. And very dramatic. Okay. He's got German Shepherd head. German Shepherd head. Rasset hound, ears and feet. Okay. So his my God. His leg's really, really short. Oh my gos. But his body's really long. That's really a bizarre looking an. He's a weird looking dog He's just a pitiful poor poor pitiful. Your wife must be sleeping. She I think she might be. go ahead Smmer teach shirt. Marry you'd have to pick five ticks off a day for your entire. Thank you. Thank you. Be some days like when we had a bunch of hunting dogs, N be tim. I mean dogs That's a lot of ticks. Yeah Ghe.

I gotta be the guy hard body. you know, that's what I am. Thank you. And so ye, that's you. And so I pinch up the skin and I'm getting I'm getting more comfortable with it. I'm like touching, you know, near it, but I can't touch it yet but I'm getting close to it. I'm pitching up the skin and I'm getting her to shine a light on it and evidently she didn't have to do that very much growing up because there is a skill to shining flashlights when you you know what I'm saying? Yeah yeah. Yeah. I know I know moving around. You got to get You got to get it an angle that it lightcks it up when you're going in right work. It's got to be, you know I know that's a job that that dads will give their kids sometimes just as like a throwway job. It's important It's an important job. I mention So I'm like, all ' them all over And we're in the kitchen, we're in the kitchen. so I just pull open the junk drawer right there and I find one of those candle lighters. Oh no that you cl clicking one. Yeah. I love the clicking one. And this is the one that doesn't it's not like a normal flame that like kind of like just, you know, would bow upward. It's more of like the It's the when it flows a h isor pressure It's a tor tiny torch. It is. I use that to burn bg. Dogs love fire too. And I grab it And I don't know who freaked out much you didn't try. Aaron or or Franklin I don't know who freaked out more You remember he was he him? Aaron's like, Don't do this now. I'm like, look it's cool It's cool.'s c.'ming to I'm trying to be cool And I hold I'm holding Franklin. I'm trying to get the because this thing is like deep in there. heard it.

I'm just trying to get It's going okay I thought I was here at that point At that point, I thought it was going okay. Who's holding the hair apart again? I'm holding the hair apart and I've got my leg kind of wrapped around his head and then my arm pit is kind of holding his body over one tick and Aaron's holding the flash like freaking out the whole time. And I come in And I got little more hair curls up just a little bit and I'm like, all right, this is going good. I'm really just trying to sizzle this tick just a little bit to get him let go because he was deep in there guys.. We're talking Morgan Freeman deep impact, y'all. And so and I'm like, all right, this is going okay. I mean, it smells like burning hair a little bit in the kitchen. you think that means it's going okay? That' part.

At that point I'm like all right, I just gotta go in so I went in with tweezers and just like whichich might have been maybe sh in one the first time.

We'll be back for the Rick and Buba show coming at fifteen minutes to the top of the hour Rickking Baba, Rickin Baba. In the break, the guys were saying that they've talked about this woman Who gallops like a horse. Yeah And they got that And they said that Adler said that at one time in his life that he wanted to be a dog just for a day As a kid. Yeah ye And he lived as a dog for one day including on all fours, includluding his mom feeding him out of a A dog ball? Yeah. That's what he told us. And he got in trouble for TTN on the roug. He took a newspaper out and wore up. And here he comes. Here he comes. you brought this up. We did. Yeah. So you re brought it up re brought it. You docked yourself.ick off that. Kick off our a little more freedom here. Is real. You did this I did. I'm not proud of it. I don't think it's cool now. I thought it was cool then. I thought it was pretty pretty stinkking cool back then. So not now. Let's go back and set the stage. Tell me exactly what qu to your mom and said what? But you were a senior in high school. I was a sophomore, dreg Did it right five or six years old.. And I spent the day as a dog us tellell us what you said to your mom. I want to be a dog for a day. And your mom didn't say, don't ever bring that up again. Let's dumb. go outside and play. And I asked for my food right next to the cat. We had a cat named Purr. Wait a minute, you left that party. And so it's getting better. I just hung out with Purr all day And my dad I thought you'd lost your mind and So you ate off the floor. My mom just she' like, all right If the kids toat off the floor,'ll let ' him, you know. You pe on trees. I hate to go back to what I said earlier. I could understand this if you were like Brady Kid number four R. You're kid number two. Yeah Yeah. I mean it's shocking that she she was so She was so overwhelmed already. just give in to your question. I remember when she screamed, just go outside and be like other kids Yeah. She blames herself. Oh like other boys, right She blames herself. He was hanging out with her. That was her crying out. I'm sorry, Chis So you ate out of a dog ball all day. I I spent a lot of time on all fours as a child and I''m not proud of that. not saying it was cool or anything like that, but like You know, around the house I would run around like a horse you were like a lion or a cheetah. I probably more envisioned myself as more like a cheetah, like a cat, you know, like big big cat animal get eat out of the bowl How much time? Let's just say hard Other otherther than going up and down steps R to your kid. For the time from the time that you were aware of your being I meaning I'm now moving. I'm mobile to say ten. How much of that time did you spend on all fours? I would say twenty five percent of it. Oh my gosh.. I used to run laps around my house inside the house until my older brother shut one of the hallway doors on me and I didn't know it. and you can't really see it's good because your head is down. Yeah was smashed into it at full speed I out of my ss how well. Is that the end of all fours? It was a weird time, guys. We don't have to talk about it though if we don't want to. Have you ever talked about this until now? Iven't No, haven't talked now. This doesn't come up now, it didn't come up on. So your watch didn't about this. It'st explains why he's go for the teen wolf, look. It does. And his posture. Yeah. Maybe that explains a lot. Oh wow. Oh, ye He spent too much time on all workking. And I understand your mom. Y mom was like, Look, he's not bothering me what would you put a b on the ground? That's another another place setting It have to put out Let P worry about.
