The John Clay Wolf Show has appeared on terrestrial radio for a really, really, really long time.
So we dug into our pockets, and on the other side of our d***, we found something funny.
And yes, it's contagious.
Gather round as the Wolf Pack goes on this throwback adventure.
What it do?
It's your boy DJ Pre-K with the John Clay Wolf Show up in the archives and y'all
know the biz, mow money and mow problems.
Now John, make sure we all get P-A-I-D, but some people need a bit extra to grease the
wheel.
Luckily John's such a nice guy that he's willing to help for the right price.
Our former employee, Big Ed, might have tried to pimp the situation a little bit.
Hell, Big Ed even got me for a couple bucks before.
But that's still my doll.
Check it out.
If you want half a billion dollars, which by the way someone in California did over
the weekend.
What would you do with it?
You know the TV guys come out and go, so what would you do?
Well, I would give it all to my-
If you won the lottery.
If you won the lottery.
I would give it all to my church.
I'd buy everybody in the family a car.
Well, this guy was a little more honest.
Cut number five.
What are you going to do with that money if you win?
Well, I'm definitely going to get a new supercharged Mustang with dual exhaust
and about five kilos of cocaine.
And I'll be good to go.
Okay, so you like cars.
You like cars.
So you like cars.
You like cocaine.
No, I like cocaine.
But one more time, I ain't quite.
What are you going to do with that money if you win?
Well, I'm definitely going to get a new supercharged Mustang with dual exhaust and about five kilos
of cocaine.
And I'll be good to go.
Okay, so you like cars.
You like cars.
Yeah.
A live TV and that fun.
You never know what you're going to get thrown.
He sounds like one of our employees that give me the vent.
He does.
He's loving it.
Did you pick that up?
Yeah, I did.
Hey man.
Cocaine, that's all I'm going to get for you.
Is that what he says?
Oh.
Well, I mean-
It's just the time.
I've never heard him talk about cocaine.
Well, he-
No, it's just partying.
Is he a coke user?
No, no, no.
Golly.
No.
But he's the one that hits me up for money.
No.
And that's why I was wondering, if he's got a little coke thing, then I need to know
that.
I won't make him those short term loans.
No.
God.
I have no evidence of him using cocaine.
I'm just saying that voice, that's a party voice, he's constantly has a raspy sound
to it.
I don't know if it's because of excess coke use, but-
No.
Gigi, have you ever asked an employer for a short term loan?
No.
Who does that?
A lot of people.
I mean, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Maybe I should do that now.
Big Ed.
Yeah.
Big Ed from Puerto Rico.
Oh, man.
Are you serious?
What did they say?
Hey, I need to do this and that, and can you please advance me this or that?
But when you do it once, then they're going to- it's a cat deal to keep coming
back.
It's not a one.
You know, if somebody really needs something, that's one thing.
But the repeat offenders is just different.
We haven't-
But then so how do they pay you back?
Oh.
They-
In love.
They-
We make a, you know, a deal, $2.50 a month or set up a time frame, each deal's different.
There's not a whole lot.
I'm being careful what I'm saying because I don't want to attract more of this.
Can we just-
Can we have an intervention right now?
Yeah, yeah, we have an intervention.
Please.
Something about employee loans inside the company at GiveMeTheVin.com.
John.
Yes.
Please stop it.
Please.
Really?
Yes.
Tell me why.
Why?
It causes too much headache for the company and myself.
Why?
Because if they don't produce, I can't- we can't collect the money back.
Oh.
Oh, and you can't fire them because they still owe you-
Correct.
Yeah.
Ooh, that's perfect.
Hmm.
Yeah.
If we had him finally cut loose, couldn't get the money collected, that's like screw it.
We just couldn't do it.
It was costing too much money.
The difference between what he owed and what he's costing us, it wasn't worth it.
Oh.
Yeah.
So please stop.
Was that the motorcycle dude?
Yes.
Oh.
But it was the mom and it was the cancer and it was the this.
You have a huge heart.
A heart.
Seriously.
Huge heart.
But he does.
And that's why-
You let some of the bit shows me how much.
You're going to see the other side of a huge heart here in a minute.
What's the owe me?
I believe it's around 800 bucks.
Yeah.
Okay.
You got it down to 800.
That's good.
Because we were up there pretty good on that one.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
We just have to have somebody sit outside your window, your door.
Right.
No one gets in to talk to John.
You know, one of the, give me the vent employees told me one time.
I'm not going to tell you who.
Okay.
But they, they, they told me something about it.
They're like, well the last thing you want to do is owe John money.
Who's that?
What was that?
No, you don't.
You know, we helped Norman build a house and so we're stuck with him.
Not that he sucks at his job, but he's a, he's a handful, Norman.
And then this one guy, motorcycle guy comes in and says, oh, I need more money and he
can't buy cars.
No.
And then he goes, Turley's about to have three heart attacks call me saying, well, ain't
he a friend of yours?
And I'm like, no.
Last thing you want to do is owe John money.
Hmm.
I think he'd snap on you.
I think he'd put out a hit.
What about big head?
I mean, he actually comes back.
He pays up, but he's got the, the daughter story that, um, you know, the abandoned
child, he's raising another woman's child that she, she had her, she got drunk at a party.
She was hanging her head out the window.
She got trained, got pregnant with another man's child and this guy's raised it.
And she's a cute little girl and he brings her around and, and he needs help.
So I've loaned him a couple of times.
He's always paid me back.
Yeah.
But it's always.
He's a good man.
Yeah.
So you moved him up to, um, Jersey, I think to open the, give me the vent up there.
Oh yeah.
Mm-hmm.
So Turley really office loans cause problems?
Yes.
It does.
I'm being serious.
Okay.
Well, y'all can blame Turley.
You're wonderful.
A guy like Zuckerberg, anybody approaches him.
Hey.
Oh, oh, hey.
I'm sorry.
No, go ahead.
That you think that the, the employees asked Zuckerberg.
I'm just wondering if anybody asks somebody has that kind of money.
Hey, can you float me a couple of mil?
All right.

About this episode
John Clay Wolfe and his crew dive into hilarious and candid stories from their long-running radio show archives, focusing on workplace antics involving employee loans and quirky characters like Big Ed. They share amusing takes on what people would do if they won the lottery, revealing a mix of humor and real-life struggles. The conversation highlights the challenges of lending money to employees, the emotional ties involved, and the chaos it can cause in a small business environment. Listeners get a behind-the-scenes look at the show's unique blend of humor, heart, and real talk.
Original notes
John has paid the cost to be the boss but with big money comes a lot of hands. We hear from a man who dreams of a rockstar lifestyle if he hit the lotto and that reminds us of some of our favorite employees. From troubling senses of humor to Puerto Rican stepfathers, we run the gambit of characters at the company. One fellow in particular seems to need a little more help than others.
