It's just a paradigm to explain how illogical the liberals are on anything. Good memory, sir, because that's 20 years ago.ĬALLER: Yeah, it was a long time. Yeah, the Patsy guys came over with just giant vats of fried calamari, and I just started throwing it into the audience in honor of Katie Couric being grossed out by watching the way you cook a lobster. Of course I didn't bring in a lobster and a chef and all that, but we brought our friends over from Patsy's and started throwing fried calamari to the audience. (wailing) "EGotta." Couric said, "Oh, my Gaaawd." So then we had, later in the week, after playing that. The chef is cooking lobster, and the chef started cutting up a live lobster and throwing the parts on a skillet, and Katie was grossed out. Katie Couric was doing a cooking episode with some chef on the Today show. When I lost - and then there's a second lobster story. They were gonna do what they did, and Mary Tyler Moore and a couple of other Hollywood actresses launched a campaign to save Larry the Lobster, and I entered the bidding to buy Larry the Lobster so that I could eat him and share him with my audience - and that further outraged them. He was big and he was old, and they were going to eat Larry. The first element is that a Los Angeles (Malibu, I think) bar or restaurant had Larry the Lobster (they had named him) in the tank. There are actually two elements to the lobster story. RUSH: let me explain the lobster story, because you watched it when you were young. It just showed me that one, Democrats don't have any sense of humor and two they'll make a ruckus out of anything. And I just remember how much, you know, outpour you brought nationally because you said you were gonna eat a lobster at the end of the week and what that told me was this. And this was before the internet and there's only three major networks. And you had him in a tank, and you said you were gonna eat him on Friday. It's an honor to talk to you.ĬALLER: You used to have a show on TV about 20 something years ago, and I was a kid at the time, and I picked it up on my antenna, and I remember you had this lobster in the background. RUSH: Here's Steven - back to the phones - Gainesville, Florida, great to have you on the program, sir. JASON: Well, you go in a shark cage or you get swallowed by a humpback whale, what's the difference? The point is it's an unbelievable story, and I thought the perfect segue to the Larry the Lobster story from Rush TV days. For we received orders for to sail back to Boston, and so never more shall we see you again. (singing) Farewell and adieu to you fair Spanish ladies, farewell and adieu, you ladies of Spain. You go inside the cage? Cage goes in the water? You go in the water? Shark's in the water. What you got here? Portable shower or a monkey cage? SHAW: When I was a boy, a little squid, wanted to be a harpooner or sword fisherman. I thought for sure, you know, after hearing the story - I don't know about you, but really I'm going back to Robert Shaw in Jaws. Packard was apparently hospitalized with some soft tissue damage to the legs, but he's otherwise doing pretty well. Can't believe he was in the mouth of a whale. Does that count for anything? No? All right. JASON: You know, I wasn't there for that, but I did sit through an episode of Flipper last night. This guy's buddy, Captain Joe Francis - this is Michael Packard's buddy - says he witnessed the tail end - pardon the pun - the tail end of the ordeal and helped bring him to safety.įRANCIS: I saw Mike come flying out of the water feet first with his flippers on and land back in the water so I jumped aboard the boat, we got him up, got his tank off, and got him on the deck calmed him down, he goes, "Joe," he goes, "I was in the mouth of a whale," he goes, "I can't believe it, I was in the mouth of a whale, Joe." But then all of a sudden the whale realized that this is not the right season for humans and started trashing its head, spitting him back out into the water. Packard described 40 agonizing seconds where he says he braced for the next moment, thinking, he'd get, you know, eaten or sucked into the big belly and done for.
