[00:00:01] Hey everybody it's me Kathleen Madigan welcome to Madigan's Pubcast. You grab yourself a drink, pull up a bar stool, let's talk about what's been going on. Termites! As Stevie would say, welcome, welcome, welcome to episode 166. That's

[00:00:33] right. And then a baby cat tried to eat her hands. No, baby cats not weird. She did their plastic hands and they're super chewable. Oh well Stevie yeah baby cat doesn't like her outfit either. Scares her. Yeah okay we'll put Stevie back up.

[00:00:55] Termites! So many things. What a great weekend it was in Santa Rosa and Wheatland. There we go Stevie can sit right there like that. Santa Rosa was first and both shows were so totally sold out which is great it

[00:01:13] makes me have to work so much less I appreciate that Termites. And then the San Francisco game was on and I have them winning my whole bracket and the 49ers, a football, if you're not a football person. And then I was like it

[00:01:26] was on big screens in the casino in the big showroom and I'm like you have to leave it on they want to see the end. I want to see the end because somebody

[00:01:32] said those this is nice of you to do well it's it's not exactly it's one of those things where it seems real nice but it's also because I want to see it but then it got so close to overtime I'm like shit what are we gonna that's

[00:01:43] another half hour but if they're out and it's a Saturday I was gonna show the overtime now double overtime again now we're in a super crunch you can't turn that off either. Could have shown but anyway they won in regulation so

[00:01:56] congratulations to the 49er fans that was very exciting and the poor Bills fans what a disaster for them I mean and then I feel so shit that Tyler Bass the kicker had to cancel all of his social media accounts like that is so shitty

[00:02:13] he's just a dude it was windy he missed how about are we gonna do it to Stefan Diggs for missing the pass in the end zone are we gonna do it to Josh for missing an open receiver I mean I don't feel like kickers there's not enough

[00:02:26] glory for the amount of bullshit you're gonna get if you don't succeed success they expect it failure we're running out of town and I don't know if it was people gamblers or Bills fans or who's doing it but that is not nice it's like

[00:02:42] when Philly when that pitcher had to move he had to leave town but I expect that out of Philly Philly's fans are super cutthroat and they're you know they would admit it they totally admit it but the Bills fans

[00:02:53] I don't know and see it coming unless it's just trolls too that gambling people trolling people fantasy people fantasy is over technically so we can't it can't be the fantasy people I'm already putting a team yeah I'm already

[00:03:10] thinking now see if you would have behaved that way during the real season I would have gotten burst instead of second and there you go so I'm gonna do my shout out thank yous if you guys don't like this part you skip through it

[00:03:22] but I feel like so many people brought so many cool things I should say that and by the way the the hard rock cafe not cafe the hard rock hotel and then there's a cafe in there these new hard rocks if this is what the Mirage is

[00:04:54] I totally understand it you get tired of feeling short and those were makeup shows too what I had to cancel because of the parental meltdown and everybody was so nice they held onto their tickets yeah I mean if somebody cancels on me I

[00:25:04] so nice he went got a little girl brought her up she could say hi to Taytay yay but he's got all girls so maybe he knows mm-hmm he did go tailgating with the bills mafia which yeah you would think maybe that that would be risky

[00:25:46] security building at least this time he didn't get in I mean you're making progress I would not pay my HOA dues if there's a guy sitting in my hallway um he was the alleged the shaggy haired man who police and the refer referred to as

[00:26:03] David was snared on the streets of Chewbacca by the NYPD after a failed attempt to get in the building wearing tan pants blah blah blah I don't really care what he was wearing he's uh he's not old he's he looks to be I don't know

[00:26:15] let's say 30s mustache he was taken into custody on an active warrant for failing to answer summons from 2017 it's not the first time she's caught the eye of over eager fans with a string of stalkers in her history leading to her

[00:26:31] soul sold out mega tour to install facial recognition software to identify certain men from her past when are they doing that to us I didn't know this I don't care no you take picture my face um they he came around about one o'clock

[00:26:51] in the afternoon he tried this yeah I mean if I was her I don't know this is why people end up getting like giant estates instead of she's trying to go in and out of a New York apartment building Louis by the way if anyone wants to

[00:27:05] stalk Louis has his name on the thing I said of what if some psycho lady sees that and I just cut you can just go pretty much he goes he goes that's what I'm hoping for Kathleen crazier the better crazy or the bet I know he was

[00:27:19] kidding if you are I don't think Lou's gonna have a stalker none of you termites talk me a much appreciated yeah he was pretty civil there was no yelling or anything she was in New York I mean that's just so weird on Friday a man in

[00:27:38] a similar outfit to David was also seen lingering outside the apartment despite the snowstorm the weather did little to deter the man who was being spoken to by the cops but it's unclear if anything developed this is why in the documentary

[00:27:52] as we said which said she wasn't for Marja by bird because she voted against stalking laws and she looked at her dad she goes hello there should be the stalking laws are bullshit cuz they arrest them and then they just let him

[00:28:05] go and then okay well your trials gonna be set and what would blood is this a great look out that actress from that sitcom years ago where some stalker fool just showed up she answered her front door stabbed her yeah my sister Sam lady

[00:29:50] been in a adding to its allure that it was in this private collection for the past 50 years it is gorgeous but what are you gonna do you can't go out in this someone kill you what are you gonna do I mean yeah how would I secure this house

[00:30:05] if somebody knows you have it update this makes me laugh Oh baby cat these two freaks three freaks of cats that I have now there was a black one out there just eating their whole bowl of food not a one of them did a goddamn

[00:30:21] thing they don't even approach it they jump up on the sides of the screened-in porch and so they're halfway up and stare at it that's their idea we got this no you don't whose black cat is that it's enormous it wolfed out a whole bowl

[00:30:34] of food and I'll feed I mean I don't want to feed that one too though enough is enough enough is enough I don't want to become the crazy cat lady they showed

[00:30:46] up I know kind of I am but I didn't do it on purpose I didn't well that's why if the Chinese want to get in my phone you have fun looking at 1,300 pictures of baby cat and I'm sure this if they are breaking into phones looking at that

[00:31:01] shit that is it all this same cat yep sometimes she's 1,300 different ways of cute oh look at that one her paws are over her eyes that's all I got this worth shit my phone here's some videos of backstage you excited so all those

[00:31:20] Russian yachts we seized and I kept saying what are we gonna do with them where are we gonna dock it what is the plan my initial plan for you turn my to listen all the time I say you turn them into bars yeah you can make so much

[00:31:34] money private parties if it's gonna be docked and sitting there let's make some money well the government's in charge so of course that would take 50,000 years for them to go in the year 1604 we were given a suggestion that maybe we should

[00:31:51] turn this into a bar and I don't mean like a hooptie nightclub I mean just a great place to go have a drink all billionaire termites I have ideas for you they're free just think about it as a lady who knows how to make money at a

[00:32:09] happy hour promotion trust me on this the government now wants to sell this Russian yacht while the for forfeiture take case continues keeping I'm a day up yeah I'm a dia I'm a dia a float without a proper owner and crew is not only

[00:32:26] a waste of a beautiful creation but noted shipyard Lursen by that's who that made it but also of the taxpayers harder money we're wasting money that's spent to the tune of a minimum of 1 million a month that's what we're

[00:32:42] spending to keep this thing because we seized it so before we seized it we should have had a plan how do we make a million a month it's always with the it's 348 foot long the bill it's 15,000 a month just to park it and where it is

[00:33:03] parked does not look luxurious but wait get it down Oh Hickory Lake let me have or like of the Ozarks oh that would be great a lake the Ozarks because the boats at Lake of the Ozarks just keep getting bigger and bigger and it really

[00:33:16] pisses off people like my parents who've lived there forever because my dad's like look at the waves these things are created they're ruining everyone's dark now we all have to go by concrete duck what's next a goddamn aircraft carrier

[00:33:26] I'm like probably dead those bush boys got a lot of money they might show up with an aircraft carrier with their helicopters on the back you don't know dad pilots yep so you have to run the engines on these things for long hours

[00:33:42] frequently or the whole thing's gonna break I don't know about winterizing like my boat is winterized by my friend and it sits there you don't have to run it all but this is these big ones I don't think you winterize them and they have

[00:33:56] to it's like anything a car you got to run it um so it had to take a five-hour trip to run it um it cost seven hundred and sixty seven thousand dollars to fill

[00:34:09] it that's your gas bill when you rock up to Sam's at your lake bar and go could you fill that and go inside to go to the bathroom and do a shot you're gonna

[00:34:17] come out to a seven it took a five-hour journey mm-hmm yeah so they also they burn $2,000 worth of diesel just to run the generator generators primarily to keep the AC on this one's bigger and larger so it's even more fuel to do

[00:34:39] that you also have to keep um what might say this in here this is where I was gonna say all electrical systems must be operational it boasts an onboard cinema with D box seating a popcorn machine popcorn machine we can let that go an

[00:34:54] outdoor deck with 2,000 watts 20,000 watt speaker system accompanied by later lasers and owners cabin featuring a mosaic line pool with a ceiling of 2,000 fiber optic cables that recreate the night sky including all zodiac signs again this is when people have too much money you've lost your goddamn mind

[00:35:12] this is where people need to come in and go no no we're not doing in a so you have to have technicians working on all this you can't let that stuff sit um it's

[00:35:24] more it's more costly than you know a seized car or you put it into a lot and you pay $150 a month to have the car sit there until forfeiture is determined but not this is not the case with these yachts the government is gonna have to

[00:35:38] prove the actual owner is indeed a Russian oligarch well that won't be easy how it's in 17 names I'm sure before we get to the name in most countries people who have enough money to build like this hide behind LLC's bearer bonds and they

[00:35:52] create a paper trail that's impossible to unwind exactly it's no easy mission but one that has to be accomplished well in the meantime can't it be a public bar right um yeah that's what Nikki Haley which says should be saying right now in

[00:36:10] New Hampshire I'm gonna turn all Russian seas super yachts into parties the happy hour specials are gonna be crazy trust me this was spotted this was um seized 19 months ago and it's been cruising around San Diego Bay spending

[00:36:30] all that get you also have to have a crew they didn't even mention that the crew can't leave you can't leave this thing unattended update little little Lizzie Holmes yep she's been banned from the federal health programs from all

[00:36:47] federal health programs for 90 years right what does she care but maybe her next idea was something else in the medical field at least we stopped that shit when she gets out in probably five fucking years because you know she was

[00:37:01] given 11 they'll cut that she'll make calls her parents or they'll call people and shit but then what if her next idea was something about health at least she's gonna have to move on to the next con but I already figured she probably

[00:37:14] already figured that it's a lifetime ban effectively because of her bullshit with the Theranos she was sentenced to 11 years in prison starting in May 2023 right we have to say it um she will not be able to work for an entity that

[00:37:32] receives federal health care funding apart from some limited circumstances her partner Balwani got the same deal so that was her breaking news in her cell this week hey fucknut you can't be involved in uh we're done now you're

[00:37:49] done with help update what do I tell you termites when I make my videos at the airport if you cannot get on Spirit Airline please do not get on Spirit Airline I fear for your safety I fear for your safety and I know a lot of the

[00:38:04] youngsters do it cuz it's cheap I get it you don't have a big budget but so the judge said JetBlue and Spirit cannot merge I thought that was a terrible like what right JetBlue and Spirit merge it's just two homeless people taking their

[00:38:18] two carts full of crap and putting it into one cart and go in this great no it's just a big pile of crap you had two piles of crap and I have one pile of crap

[00:38:26] and it's easier to move around no it's heavier now it's just heavier but here's the thing so shares of discount airline so first of all discount an airline should never be together it's like discount laser surgery stop it you only

[00:38:42] get two eyes in your whole life you know people that were like I'm gonna go down to Mexico and have laser surgery it's $18 and you get a margarita you don't see anything questionable about that it's not like I'm Lewis where I'm overly

[00:38:55] concerned about health but flaw no I'm not shares of discount airline fell 17% in morning trade on Wednesday this last Wednesday after a US judge blocked the airlines plan three point billion dollar merger with rival jet airway JetBlue

[00:39:12] Airways the company has not made money since before the pandemic yep you know what and they're nailing people on those overweight suitcases I have a joke about it in my act but it really happened what I saw if you they're nickel and

[00:39:26] diamond all the way to the gate ticket sales haven't bounced back as quickly as a carrier expected and dozens of its planes will be grounded this time with because of a problem with the engine are you hearing me turn right engine

[00:39:40] problems a sale to JetBlue represented a lifeline for spirit which faces 1.1 billion dollars in debt maturing next year yep how can you be sitting around in February this year going well 10 months we owe somebody a billion now we

[00:39:57] did charge Suzy an extra $64 for that suitcase so how many more times do we got a nail people on overweight suitcases hmm the judge said no it violates antitrust laws some Wall Streeters who follow spirit are tossing

[00:40:16] around the B word bankrupt first of all if I was a real Ireland I don't want to buy their airplanes because I have to paint them all nobody's flying around in bright yellow sail color airplane that's a bad color the judge even hinted at it

[00:40:31] they're gonna have to file for bankruptcy and then what are we gonna restructure and become sprint on the other end yeah I don't know about all that's maybe it should just go away the more likely scenario is chapter 11 following followed by liquidation exactly let's just yeah there's probably

[00:40:48] nothing Delta or American or United would want from those planes parts are we gonna we're gonna treat it like a redneck tow yard there's a good carburetor in there let me in come on man ain't nothing wrong with those wheels

[00:41:01] some tires are weird but the wheels are fine let me in so that's it spirit did not respond to the the whole situation a spokesman for the airline pointed to a regulatory filing two weeks ago which the airline to disclose that it raised

[00:41:21] a hundred four hundred nineteen million through sale and lease pack agreements covering 25 planes 25 that's all yeah there's there's seven sitting in Nashville right now waiting on a gate yeah they've been there before the ice storm that was last week hmm right we didn't figure in the deicing situation

[00:41:44] how much that cost oh boy we're not doing it who wants to fly without the icing half of them would go let's go I'd be one of them fuck it we're late let's try there's a thing on tik-tok a video where you actually it is real it's like

[00:42:03] LaGuardia or Newark a busy New York Airport what are those doing you hear the FAA guys go I were in a full ground stop right now and all airlines planes and meanwhile you see spirit just go boom and take off and the tic-tac force

[00:42:20] it's like spirits that's fucking they don't even listen to the guys in the tower yeah we just heard we can park in Omaha Nashville never lets him in especially on the Delta side I'm always on the Delta side those Delta badges pig right by him

[00:42:43] man discovers a 253 year old pre-revolutionary war fort hidden in the size hidden in the walls of his West Virginia home and a trove of historical treasures including a sword blacksmith keys silver coins and a Civil War era

[00:43:05] mourning dress and hundreds of family photos well here's um he knew he thought it was in there that's why he bought it I like this guy yeah he's pigging around he's a little pigster I like him a small-town lawyer from West Virginia was

[00:43:21] in for an extraordinary surprise when he discovered a 253 year old pre-revolutionary fort and Monroe County plantation home John Bryan 43 self-described history buff an amateur archaeologist purchased the see I should get with this guy he's

[00:43:34] just saying yeah not really one I'm just kind of an archaeologist um you know I'm really a lawyer and I could say well I'm really comedian but I'm interested in helping this guy yeah it's great he purchased a property in 2019 with a

[00:43:47] hunch that the large white clappered farmhouse was built around an old fort known as Burnside's Fort we had to buy the property first before being able to take a crowbar to see if the log walls were inside of it imagine how excited he

[00:44:01] was when it was it was originally built in 1770 by an early settler of Virginia named James James Burnside after his cabin was burned to the ground by Shawnee Indians on the same site in 1763 the fort which never came under attack

[00:44:16] during the Revolutionary War has been occupied ever since by three families until 2019 when the last dependent a descendant passed away I guess they never felt like ripping out a wall but boy you rip out the wall and this thing

[00:44:28] is in perfect condition I mean I'm looking at the pictures it is a true wooden fort the walls were covered by plaster the exterior exterior was decorated with white siding that's how he bought it it's believed it be the only

[00:44:43] one left of its kind along with the original along the original Virginia frontier most if not all or nothing but stains in the ground if you can even find one this one you can see and touch the original architecture features that

[00:44:57] nobody living has ever seen it's amazing he began the painstaking process of removing the 1850s plaster oh my god we hit my dad and I well everybody in the family we had a house from like the late 1800s like a farmhouse and he

[00:45:12] decided my dad decided he would like the family room to be larger and that there was no use for the other room on the other side so we were gonna just tear down a wall this is way before HDTV this is just idiots with hammers that's

[00:45:25] what they should have called they just show so we started hammering I guess I thought it would be like drywall no it's plaster and then there's chicken wire and then more plaster and then more chicken wire it was ridiculous I

[00:45:40] mean he finally had to hire somebody I'm like dad this is way out of your ballpark here you don't know what you're doing we have normal hammers like from Home Depot it's plaster dad and then there's chicken wire what am I supposed to do with my

[00:45:52] hammer when I get to the next rung of chicken wire he found all these artifacts he even found World War one mementos and hundreds of family photos he said it is boarding on obsession I can see that I would get obsessed with

[00:46:07] it too he discovered the fort in 2019 and an old lady lived there was very private and didn't let anybody in that was the last I read that private yeah that means hoarder usually just fine so I don't know if he'll ever let us see us

[00:46:25] he should charge us I would pay to go look at it yeah make some money moving on to news Adele is fading out in Vegas well she's gonna be done she's probably tired of it I mean it's been 35 weekends like in a row like I'd be sick of

[00:48:32] realized it was a socialized socializing thing more than anything well a lot of those old ladies are very cutthroat for being quote social when they whip out when they whip out tools for bingo like though I hadn't gone a long time that I

[00:48:44] went with my grandma and they have these what bobbers dobbers and they're like they're playing like 24 cars this isn't this isn't social anymore this lady's in a frenzy there you are in frenzies there's church social bingo and then

[00:49:42] garden I like this site that I follow it's a big of one of the biggest all the biggest Twitter sites are good anyway here's some crazy news this is spooky a woman returned stones she stole from Pompeii claiming they are cursed well

[00:50:02] here's the thing it's a giant graveyard I wouldn't be stealing anything no no an archaeologist took to X to share a picture of a note from a woman who apologized for stealing stones from Pompeii and claimed they are cursed now

[00:50:16] I have the actual note on my phone but my phone is off but it said dear people in charge I took these stones I didn't know about the curse I'm very sorry and when I

[00:50:26] got home I found out I have cancer and she's young and I am healthy and I don't my dad said it was just bad luck I think maybe it's the stone so she mailed them back yeah she said they've been cursed and also extended her apologies

[00:50:43] Gabriella so-and-so said she's she's in charge of the Pompeii as a park she shared a picture of the note and also the three stolen stones dear anonymous sender this letter the pumice stones arrived in Pompeii now good luck for your

[00:50:57] future and boca a lupa as we say in Italy the phrase means it's an idiom that means good luck you know I it was share the tweets accumulated more than 49,000 views the share has gathered 400 likes people think there's a similar

[00:51:17] curse on the rocks from the volcanoes in Hawaii but the truth is it's illegal to remove anything from a national park so our tour guides and park rangers make up the curse thing to discourage people from taking away well the Brady Bunch we

[00:51:28] already learned about the curse in that one episode when they went to Hawaii I knew Canada wouldn't get there was a tiki thing that was bad luck I forget it was a two-parter I do know that and you never got a two-parter that when they

[00:51:43] went to Hawaii it was a two-parter yeah it got me till Tuesday to Tuesday through grade school I'm like I gotta find out what happens to Greg and his tiki thingy that he has it's bad luck he's wearing it around his neck it was

[00:51:54] just it was just a cliffhanger got me going when I was probably in fifth grade yeah so you know don't be stealing stuff from parks whether the curse is made up or not look what happened to that girl that's not good she hasn't responded if

[00:52:13] the cancer is gone or not I hope so I mean if it was the stones maybe if you returned them might as well try right mm-hmm this article I do not usually do stuff about people that I think are mentally ill at their core I don't

[00:52:32] usually do articles or updates or anything on those people because I don't feel that it's right to do that but occasionally if they choose to make a spectacle out of it and then I feel like I can report on that this this is

[00:52:49] coming from a lady right here horrible bad Irish teeth I've had well I don't even know I mean the one lady that was cleaning my teeth she's like now how many implants you have and where are they I'm like fuck if I know a lot don't

[00:53:05] you have an x-ray yeah how about you not no do that don't do that till we find out because I don't want you picking around those back teeth I mean I've had I've had bone grafts I've had implants root canals and crowns of child's play

[00:53:17] at this point but I know how crazy teeth can be and what you go through to keep your teeth and if you'd like to see what it's like to not have your teeth you can

[00:53:28] go spend the weekend with my parents and watch them when my dad takes a nap and snores and the teeth become disconnected and float around it is horrifying but it's also mesmerizing he just goes and then the teeth sometimes they fall I'm

[00:53:43] like wow and then he's still asleep though he's sound asleep and then he goes and they all click back in I'm like amazeballs that was crazy I mean your teeth Kanye West has had his he claims he said he's had his teeth removed all

[00:54:01] of them and replaced with an eight hundred fifty thousand dollar titanium denture more expensive than it's from a movie he wants to be the James Bond villain jaws I've never seen a James Bond movie in my life I don't know what

[00:54:15] they're talking about I've seen the picture of the guy so really it looks like how football players when they put not there I call him nightguards because I have one of those two right there's a but it looks like that except silver now

[00:54:33] I also think whoever did this should be arrested and lose their license because also what people don't know and I one time in the hospital my dad's teeth slipped kind of out and then my mom laughed so her hard hers flew out and

[00:54:55] I've never seen my mom without teeth in it was hillbilly horrifying I'm like what is going on with your face if you pull out your teeth your face shape changes like and you do get that weird little he sitting on the front porch

[00:55:08] with your banjo look you can't eat right I mean this is like anyway I'm gonna tell you his new lavish dentures he said they're more expensive than diamonds the implant is a new surgical is a new surgical model and unique to the

[00:55:30] musician the new stars dentures and this guy ain't hiding his name is dr. Connelly in Beverly Hills uh-huh well that's what Kanye said there's another dentist that said I suspect they were filed down but he said the whole thing's crazy anyway

[00:55:48] because if you don't clean that thing properly his thing it's bacteria and infections and then the teeth that you do have you filed down so far if he didn't have them removed the one dentist is saying I don't think they were

[00:56:00] removed I think they were filed to make room for this thing it's just he said in 2010 on the Ellen Show that he had his tire entire bottom row of teeth removed he's had the book to shave down to little tombstones which is a standard

[00:56:18] procedure for veneers I don't have veneers I don't know is this what he's done but your teeth are like they're so valuable what are you doing um he yeah well eight you know basically a million dollars he spent so he could look like a

[00:56:40] guy in a movie $850,000 what about parking parking is expensive in Beverly Hills so did you get dropped off he also reason it was also recently revealed he owes worth more than 1 million dollars in unpaid taxes so talk

[00:56:56] about shoving it in the government's face oh I just spent a mil at the dentist have my teeth filed down like a rabbit and I got these new silver things his clothing firm easy apparel has had four active tasks tax liens filed over

[00:57:10] the last three years for unpaid business taxes totally nine hundred thirty four thousand dollars I just can't believe so a responsible dentist would do this yeah it's also revealed last month that the ocean Malibu oceanfront property he

[00:57:30] bought for 57 million in September 2021 was now being put up for sale for four million dollars less that lady is like a prisoner yeah that wife yeah okay I don't know enough about her I just know she what runs around in weird outfits

[00:57:52] she always looks naked outside I don't know this lady that Kanye married well who would marry Kanye I mean you got to be half bananas to get involved with that no full bananas not half full bananas Amazon Prime Video news close to my

[01:01:58] chicken and try to be healthy and I don't know it just seems to have like they've changed the menus well anyway this is an interesting little concept and clearly hey probably should have thought this through for to make a little

[01:02:12] more expensive but they didn't Applebee's will offer a subscription date night pass for $200 beginning on Monday a year this pass will cover roughly a year of weekly date nights according to the cup starting February 1st about two weeks before Valentine's Day and ending on January 31st 2025 the

[01:02:36] pass is valid 52 times it covers up to $30 of food and non-alcoholic beverages per use so basically you're getting two free dinners it's great and you're paying for your if you're drinking you're paying for that you it covers to

[01:02:59] it also can cover two services of all you can eat boneless wings riblets and shrimp oh you better call red lobster Applebee's as we got no big problem with that endless amount of shrimp but the cost of margaritas have to come out of

[01:03:12] your own pocket spending up to spending on spending on dates is up 40% for the past decade according to a 2022 survey right how are you ever supposed to find somebody if you can't afford to go out and do something but some singles or

[01:03:28] foregoing first dinner days for cheap options cheaper options like a walk in the park I am NOT walking on a park on a first date that's how you end up on law and order and you're the dead lady in the park have we not seen enough of those

[01:03:40] episodes uh-oh female found right or coffee you wanna go on a coffee date no you have to be somewhere where there's alcohol in case the person's insufferable you know I wasn't thinking about shooting Jack fire today but I'm

[01:03:55] sitting here with the most boring person on the planet you know what will make that person more interesting to me Jack fireball um with the price of dining out the chain has leaned into his reputation as affordable destination eat they also

[01:04:09] have trivia night which is fun I've stumbled into some of those yeah it's fun it brought back to all you can eat boneless wings double crunch shrimp in the New Year separately the company announced the dollar Rita's back

[01:04:24] margarita for a dollar it's so sweet it could make me physically vomit back in the margarita glass yeah yeah so it was available 16 at 16 Applebee's are exempt maybe they're franchised yeah there are two in Jersey one in New York one in

[01:04:45] Maryland two in Florida two in Ohio two one in South Dakota five in Pennsylvania and one of Virginia one in Texas the past can be used for online orders but cannot be used through third-party delivery orders such as door dads or

[01:04:58] so here's what happened cuz this this podcast where you get the news you need to know he's on top of it it's sold out in 30 seconds their $200 date night passes were sold out within a minute on Monday when they were officially

[01:05:16] released for purchase you could only buy them online but that's not hard I don't know I'm gonna see if it says due to popular demand it is sold out the excitement demand restaurant changed they didn't say how many date nights

[01:05:30] were sold so then I wonder because I'm cynical like this did they only do like ten but none of us will ever know that but look at all the press they got did any termites try yeah I don't know I feel like it's it's when people go yeah

[01:05:45] I gave a bunch of that money to charity how much and show me a receipt I don't believe you this now you're saying you sold them all out maybe this was all a scam so they'd get all this attention and they did and they really only end up

[01:05:55] giving out I don't know I think you should be accountable though yes they said there were tens of thousands of hungry guests waiting to try and snag a pass well right but we don't you didn't give out that many oh here we go um many

[01:06:13] expressed their frustrations on social media Bobby McHugh Twitter user said literally spamming refresh on Applebee's for the date night and didn't even see the option would they sell like five of them I'm mad that I emailed them to

[01:06:29] make sure I was new in the right place they gave me the wrong link just seemed extremely unorganized and didn't think about how we would feel after the fact within the same span of 30 seconds the Applebee's date night pass was in my cart

[01:06:45] available and then sold out it's not immediately clear whether Applebee's no if you something's in your cart you don't automatically get it that's happened to me with concert tickets if they did give me a warning I wasn't

[01:07:02] looking at the screen when it happened I went to buy and it said your cart is empty it happens those people are right this is this is this is yeah look at all

[01:07:15] the free press a guy well do I do any you termites work at Applebee's then we know go to the team email and tell us yeah tell us so then we can we can be our own dateline here and do some investigation this is crazy okay one

[01:07:35] thing I love about the Midwest West and the South is the cicadas I don't even know if they're in the East Coast I think of it more of this southern thing cicadas are these little like beetle type things but they make the greatest

[01:07:47] no it's loudest in the summer and it just feels like the yard is alive and like things are yeah it does sound like someone's being electrocuted well two cicada cycles will emerge together in Tennessee for the first time since Thomas

[01:08:05] Jefferson was president in 1803 and could cause millions of dollars in damage so I'm gonna have to have my own plan of how to kill these little bastards because if they get to my good tree I'll have two trees that I like the

[01:08:18] best you know it's great it's hundreds of years old it's been there and I always think this tree saw Civil War people walk by this tree knows way more than I know so does the other one I don't want to lose these trees I'm not

[01:08:31] sure what kind they eat I'll get closer to it when spring starts but I also do love the noise and now there's two cycles coming it's gonna be so loud so summer it's been over 200 years the nose the nosy red-eyed winged incites

[01:08:48] hibernate in either 13 or 17 year cycles but one state will be buzzing with both and experts predicted there will be 1 million per acre of land a million the infestation will likely see hundreds if not thousands of trees

[01:09:02] damaged beyond recovery that sucks I don't want that to happen the last time it happened 1803 same year as Louisiana Purchase and when Thomas Jefferson was president in 2008 we had the 17 years cicadas emerged in 2011 when 13 cicadas emerged so they're gonna be back in 2024 and 25 back-to-back that's why I

[01:09:21] have this project because the nurseries are gonna be overwhelmed two years in a row mm-hmm the insurance companies damaged they did the insurance companies damage treat they count trees are they talking about for like a nursery that

[01:09:34] has trees I don't know yeah so that's gonna be happening Tennessee I'd say start listening in June I better call my friend Mark and then it's gonna go Kathleen there's nothing I can do about stray bugs I'm gonna like well Mark I

[01:09:51] think there is mark and you're gonna have to have a plan for this you're working on my text him today do you have a plan for this to cicada cycle they produce a noise that can hit a hundred decibels it's so loud I know then they

[01:10:10] leave a crusty brown shell on trees allowing them to grow an inch and a half inch bigger they'll overwhelm an area yeah I guess it's what it says yeah here's the thing who needs a job 11,000 workers will soon be hired to

[01:10:28] build a high-speed rail Brightline rail from Vegas to California they keep saying California but they're not saying where which I find to be odd you need to know the end where's the end is it LA is it San Diego is it Grass Valley unions

[01:10:45] will soon begin to recruit thousands of workers to build a massive high-speed Brightline rail spanning from Vegas to California Nevada crews are set to begin their portion by summertime where's it going ranch it that's Palm Springs ranch a kooka-monga can you Google ranchu rancho kooka-monga to Palm Springs

[01:11:12] I'm pretty sure there's a lot of ranchos in palms right kooka-monga kooka see it's a C kooka to Palm Springs distance if this trains going to Palm Springs that's just stupid Richard Rancho kooka-monga oh it's by Riverside so it's

[01:11:43] so it's out in the way suburbs of LA by Ontario air by the Ontario improv which used to take me two hours to get to on a good day from Los Angeles so it's too far

[01:11:55] away not for the people that live in the Inland Empire there's a part of Los Angeles in the suburbs and I always wanted a t-shirt that said I live in the Inland Empire which is a wonderful neighborhood I mean it's great for those

[01:12:10] guys it's great for I don't know Vegas people that want to go to that's just stupid the Department of Labor met with trade unions to discuss a monumental task how can they hire 11,000 workers to build 218 miles of rail will you do

[01:12:27] it the way we did the railroad in this country you start hiring everybody how difficult is this 3,000 construction trade will be hired within Southern Nevada maybe there's not enough well call other cities and you know that's why pipefitters travel union guys travel sometimes it called the other

[01:12:42] unions yeah well that's who's doing it Biden administration approved this three billion dollars I approve of that thank you Papa Joe but I don't think we've thought this through it needs to go to LA like the downtown train station not

[01:13:01] rental go come on go not the Ontario improv airport one time on Southwest they said we were landing in Ontario and I thought I had flown to Canada I fell asleep and I'm like Ontario holy shit what what the goal is to be completed by

[01:13:22] 2028 in time for the Olympics in Los Angeles okay let's say you take it and from Vegas to Rancho Cucamonga how do you think you're getting then it's a uber to downtown LA to go see the Olympics in a thing it's over 100 bucks

[01:13:38] for sure um I'm right you're gonna be in traffic with an uber driver just fly that's too bad um too bad this is kind of crazy I'm trying to find a good one

[01:13:56] to end on to a happy one well this one makes me happy because oh I forgot to Hawaii's last princess now see I was gonna say in the opening video but I took it out cuz I thought well that's gonna make me sound racist or something

[01:14:12] but the picture of the lady when I saw the article it said Hawaii's last princess leaves 40 million to her wife and 100 million to support native causes as their 250 million dollar state is finally settled a year after she died at

[01:14:24] age 96 following a stroke the picture is a very white lady and I'm like I like Caucasian white like me white whiter than me yeah I know that's hard especially if you yeah um I don't know I bought a bunch of books on the history

[01:14:43] of Hawaii when I was there and the real princesses you know aren't white I yeah I do I want I want somebody that looks like they're Hawaiian not like she just flew in from Minneapolis but it well I read the article he explains it she had

[01:15:04] a wife I know I mean how progressive was that's 96 years ago to be gay or maybe she was a woman known as the last princess away bubba Abigail Kawana Nana Koa I'm not going to be saying that again we're gonna call her

[01:15:22] Abigail Kawana Anna Koa was considered a princess by many but she was also the great-granddaughter of a sugar baron here we go here's where whitey comes in and inherited vast wealth thanks to industrial plantations in Hawaii more

[01:15:42] than a year after death age 96 finalized court documents and there she is in 2018 with her wife she's sitting in court she's sitting in court with a chihuahua on her lap and it doesn't have a service dog cape but I guess Abigail Kawana Nana

[01:16:03] Koa is powerful enough to say I'm bringing my goddamn dog Wow she donated tens of millions to various people it's nice she did a nice thing including former housekeepers other longtime employees and her wife there will be a hundred million left to support Native American causes Native

[01:16:21] Hawaiian causes that's good she was considered a princess by many but she was also the great-great-granddaughter she's pictured as a picture of her an oil painting doesn't everybody have one of those she did care deeply about advancing Hawaiian culture and resolving her estate is meaningful because Hawaiians

[01:16:39] it's the last of what's known as alley or royal a royal trust set up by royalty to help benefit Native Hawaiians I guess it took I mean I she called herself a princess I read it hold on I just gotta find it but you're not really one of

[01:17:03] their princesses right she held no formal title but was living a living reminder of Hawaii's monarchy and a symbol of Hawaiian national identity that endured after the kingdom was overthrown by American businessmen in 1893 over the years some insisted Abigail was held up as royalty only

[01:17:24] because of her wealth they disputed her princess claim saying she saying that the monarchy survived a cousin if saying that had the monarchy survived a cousin would be in line to be the ruler not her if the Hawaiian one had survived right

[01:17:39] it didn't so then she just went I'm your new princess I don't know about that Abby I don't know that but she did give a lot of money you know but she also supported the protest against a giant telescope because it was proposed

[01:17:55] placement on Mauna Kea a sacred mountain in Hawaiian culture donated by I golfed at a golf course called Mauna Kea I even have a little um hoodie from there cuz it was cold it I didn't feel like I was on a mountain maybe I was I never

[01:18:13] know where I'm at in Hawaii no it's yeah we're gonna get a lot of comments about this thing goddamn idiots just you know if you can do it in a nice way

[01:18:27] you're free to free to comment but try to try to try to be to be easy on us I don't know enough about all this I thought shouldn't be reading the story it's a volcano somebody should have told me that when I teed off hey lady if

[01:18:43] a fissure opens up run for your life yeah I do I got ink on one it won't come up um she also supported the is oh she donated items owned by King Kala Wuka and Queen Kapai forget it including a 14 karat diamond from the Kings pinky ring

[01:19:06] she turned something their thing into a museum yeah so I don't I don't let's find the last I'm gonna go find the last Hawaiian yeah where's this lady really from where was daddy from mm-hmm I can't say it again I'll do it afterwards here

[01:19:31] her name is Abigail K a w a n a n a k o a that'd be really hard on wheel of fortune oh I know it is Abigail Abigail koala koala no one would get it she's

[01:19:51] super white she looks like Minnesota white Native American air she did what she was an equestrian okay I got this is a good little story to end on it's really an update if you will even if you won't I don't care that's right I have

[01:20:25] to go pack again last week I forgot jeans pajama pants my computer the only pants I had on were black jogger like viorey things yeah that was bad usually better than that goddamn I'm like wow I have no pants at all I'm pantsless so

[01:20:49] remember when I said months and months ago there's this place called the Blasket Islands in Ireland and I love it you take a ferry a questionable ferry I might add from dingle it's a boat they call it a ferry whatever um and I'm

[01:21:08] sure when the seas aren't rough it's fine but if the seas are kind of rough it's treacherous at times well they had a job offer for people to become caretakers well I I know I'm too old they wouldn't take me I wouldn't put me

[01:21:23] out there either I'd call the next day go on my hands are so cold who's coming to get me I like god damn it now we know what we just dropped her off it's eight

[01:21:30] hours later so a London couple got the gig Emily and Daniel it's a great little story a London couple who quit the city to move to the remote city life to move to remote island on the west coast of Ireland with no electricity or running

[01:21:47] water have revealed how their mystery illnesses disappeared due to a lack of stress in their new life Emily 28 she's originally from Cork that's an island if you don't know and her civil engineering Daniel met on a late-night tube journey

[01:21:59] that's like their subway while both living in London while renovating his flat she saw the ad to move to the thing the same one I'm sure I saw and I thought I would totally do it because I've never been anywhere so so like

[01:22:14] literally magical the seals like there's hundreds of them I guess there's no sharks cuz I'm like how come nobody's feasting and they play with you they go up and down the beach and they bob their heads they're actually engaged

[01:22:25] they're like giant dogs and they're everywhere it was just and I was the only person on the beach because I had a leap down this cliff which I probably shouldn't have done but I had confidence like but then I was like oh no I'm not I

[01:22:37] forgot how am I getting back up there I'm gonna have to live here right on this beach anyway on a whim she decided to buy and beat up thousands of applicants she said her health is improved and they're questioning if they're ever

[01:22:49] gonna be able to leave yeah but this is what goes on out there so they were having a special on it on Channel 5 over there I don't know which one that would be but she reveals how the Sun sets in November and doesn't appeal

[01:23:05] appear until February the Great Grat Blasket Islands about two kilometers from the Irish mainland it was inhabited until 1954 when it became unlivable and it's now visited by tourists who take a ferry from the Irish mainland here's the

[01:23:19] crazy thing if you go out there there's little tiny like homes but they were like stone homes but they told they told these people the ones that were still left out there where you can't live here anymore it's unsustainable the government

[01:23:33] afford to keep protecting them and then they did set them up when they got to the mainland or so I was told they got set up with here's a little tiny house

[01:23:40] and here's you know an acre of land and good luck to you well I guess a lot of people just thought fuck it we ain't leaving because when you look in those homes it's 1954 stopped on a dime it's eerie as there's like high chairs like a

[01:23:56] child was in a high chair eating lunch there's cleaning supplies from like the 50s laying around it's like they vanished it's not like they packed up and moved they did not pack up and move they vanished and I well they were taken

[01:24:09] I think they thought they'll never come get us and then the government showed up and then they're like you gotta go and they got on the ferry and left their shit um I mean there didn't seem to be anything valuable but it was like a time

[01:24:23] capsule it was so strange um Emily and Daniel run a cafe and three lodges on the island but aren't often visited for days even if bad weather means ferries can't cross I would like my friend Bob and Clark to have had this

[01:24:37] job and film it oh yeah I don't think they'd be long for the living I cuz they it would make me laugh so hard though you gotta be of the right stock yeah I

[01:24:52] don't know that I could make it either I don't think I could speaking she revealed that they stock up on hundreds of cans and have baked beans for dinner if they can't get food from the mainland to them to the West there's nothing until you

[01:25:04] reach Newfoundland in Canada the couple also helps preserve the island seal populace population and take dips in the brisky sea even if it's cold as 16 Celsius in the water there's no electricity the only light comes from

[01:25:17] candles or stove and there's no hot water the only fresh cold water comes from a spring located above some of the cottages on the island they said their life is less emotionally draining than before yeah cuz you know you just get up

[01:25:29] you probably run your clock by right she worked as a children's nurse at a hospital and she said was causing all kinds of just stress problems they along the side of the alongside the cafe the couple also rang 200 sheep for farmers

[01:25:47] from the mainland to keep their sheep on the island that'd be fun the Billy O'Connor and his partner Alice a zone they own the three cottages in a coffee shop on the island I went to the coffee shop yep but I also brought my own beer

[01:26:03] they don't say you can't I did I had yeah I beard not gonna go out there and not have a beer right and I don't know that there's beer when I get there so

[01:26:12] you know I was a Girl Scout for an hour I remember back back right even though I don't have pants I probably have beer um they hire new caretakers every year oh it's gonna be so sad when these two have to leave yeah it's too cold to live

[01:26:29] on the island after October the couple left and are now traveling Indonesia how euro of you hmm they didn't use money the blasket on the blaskets were inhabited by centuries for a small close-knit Irish speaking group of a hundred two hundred fifty people they didn't use

[01:26:48] money but bartered they felt a traditional way of life farming and fishing for their food but in the 50s 1950s the remaining 20 or so inhabitants were forced to move to the mainland as emergency service couldn't be accessed

[01:26:59] at the island in bad weather but I think that's a risk you take if you know that it's like sometimes if I've driven through like Montana and Wyoming and you'll see a beautiful home but I haven't seen anything in miles you know

[01:27:12] if you have a heart attack there this is probably where you're dying but I think some people are willing to go yeah I'm cool with that I don't you know even if we get a helicopter here it's gonna take a minute because nothing's wrong um so

[01:27:25] there you go that's the that's the update of the Blasket Island people and then they'll do it next year and then here I guess every year so that's it Oh Turrets I have to tell you where I'm going hold on let me find oh I gotta do
