[00:00:01] Hey everybody it's me Kathleen Madigan welcome to Madigans Pubcast. You grab yourself a drink, pull up a bar stool, let's talk about what's been going on. Welcome from the Queen Stevie. Welcome everyone but here's the problem. Here's

[00:00:35] the problem. Stevie's not saying welcome because something is wrong with her leg and they said she had a minor surgery. She had to cancel two shows in Europe and she's supposed to be back by the Hyde Park one but then what happened

[00:00:48] because she was a Tay-Tay. Welcome. I wonder like this happened like at two o'clock in the afternoon. She was dancing. Did she fall over? Did you fall down? Well this is what happens when we have a lot of super seniors on the road. They're falling

[00:01:07] down. Somebody else canceled. Well Pink's not a super senior but she canceled. She's sick for something. Neil Young we know. Hart now Hart and sick. It's just they're falling. Pearl Jam canceled something. They're not super seniors so

[00:01:25] welcome. Sorry I didn't get to do it. Two o'clock in the afternoon though. I don't understand what these old people. Here's what I don't understand. Unless she fell then or something happened to her leg at that point. Maybe she fell at Tay-Tay. Yeah but she would have known

[00:01:38] then before two o'clock in the afternoon and people are getting ready to go to the concert. I mean if I ever do that I'll give people a reason like yeah that's just too crazy. Anyway yeah I'll do a TikTok from wherever. Look what I did

[00:01:55] to my leg. Look I was attacked by chiggers. I can't perform. I'm itching everywhere. I should have brought my chigger ex up. I found the medicine for chiggers that works. I'm gonna do no I'm gonna do a public service announcement.

[00:02:06] It's for people who go in the woods or golf or I took the cats for a walk. They follow me like the Pied Piper so and they like to go for a walk and show me

[00:02:15] their things in the woods and well we did it. Yeah they have things. They have things in the woods. Yeah and then they tell me where not to go. There's a family of skunks. I need to avoid that. Anyway what are we drinking? Well well for well

[00:02:28] no I'll do this. This is a Fort Sweetwater 420. This is I believe a Georgia beer. It's from Atlanta okay but they still serve it on Delta so I'm shouting out to Delta sometimes I don't want more than two of them. Nope it's not a

[00:02:43] session beer but boy is it a treat when they have one for breakfast just saying and there's never any judgment from the flight attendant. You don't know where I've been, what I've been doing, where I'm coming from. Nobody knows. Don't judge and they don't judge

[00:02:57] and they're um you know Delta Atlanta yay yay yay always good points for Delta. What are we gonna be eating? Well let's try this. Bacon Ranch Cashews. This is from a North Dakota termite named Ben. I didn't know North Dakota was known for

[00:03:12] cashews. Mmm interesting. I taste the bacon. I don't taste the ranch. Yeah got a little buffalo or bison I don't even know the difference on the front. Hmm that's good. Goes back to 1958. That's when I started. Some giant snacks.

[00:03:42] Giant snacks yeah. Alright well I'll give that a B. Yeah it's a nice little treat. Well let's try this. This is a big this kind of big dill. It's a big dill. Oh it's goldfish. Oh oh boy I don't know. You can't mess with perfection.

[00:04:04] Well if you're into dill. Yes I am. Well I'd rather just eat a pickle. Well I would. We already have dill pickles. We don't need to be mixing. Who the fuck even thought like hey let's take that pickle and shove it in the bag. You could shove a

[00:04:26] pickle in a regular bag of goldfish and they'd probably end up tasting like dill pickles. I think this is just a waste of time and effort on their part. No they're fine. Last thing. Hellman's chili lime I can't say it. Tahini. Yes. Oh tahini I

[00:04:45] like that stuff. Yeah on margaritas. Oh wow. Mostly margaritas and then till the bartender sees me licking the side of the glass and then I feel like a child. It's mayonnaise. Wow. Wow. Well it's a summer treat. There's a lot of lime in there. A

[00:05:10] lot of chili lime. I like it. A-. I don't know what you. It's Hellman's. I love Hellman's. I like Duke's better. Joe! I said it. I like it. Yeah it'd be good on a sandwich. Really zip a boring sandwich up. Mm-hmm. All right. Well done.

[00:05:32] Well done Hellman's. Worth the effort. Not too many are. Right. All right let's get this all away. Well I'm gonna get to the cast iron. This is part of the Queen news. All right so first we're gonna do where am I going and let's do the calendar.

[00:08:26] like 22 different languages. It would be so great in Spanish maybe I'll try to watch it in Spanish. They're five minutes and they said they'd give me a tour if I want to go through but they brought me so this is like a seat I don't think you

[00:08:39] can buy this shirt no this shirt yeah guess what week it is Shark Week! I think that deserves a goat. It does deserve a screaming goat. Hold on that's how I feel about that shirt and then these are adorable I don't know what I'm this is

[00:08:56] from a termite these oh right yeah he said these they're little jaws I'm totally putting other things like I don't know Advil once I eat what's in it well I want to keep it in my work bag because it makes me laugh makes me smile

[00:09:24] once I did a gig for Cox Communication and Shark Week was in their bundle and they gave me a beach towel it was a I don't know not know what happened up at

[00:09:32] one of my nephews snagged it it had a bite out of it how funny is that your beach towel and it said Shark Week okay anyway um there was one other termite

[00:10:21] thanks for all the laughs really appreciate yes we need some updates what's going on over there people let us know hope you guys had a great fourth of July my pooping dog firework we did very well on tick-tock very proud of myself

[00:10:35] at this age that I have a punk out there oh my god there's some this is the greatest firework stand story ever okay so there's a bunch of um well the Ozarks the Ozarks always has better ones just saying Nashville I just but I happen to

[00:10:52] be here and I know I know the good ones here they're in there out cuz I'm out of town a little bit they're out this way and there's always a skinny little red

[00:11:01] neck guy I go to and he has a big sign not on the grass I don't even know what that means I don't does he mean smoke oh we're not supposed to set him up well how about we don't set him off next to the goddamn tent

[00:11:17] almighty Wow yeah so I went up and he was there he's there and he's like oh I remember you and I said hi how's it going so far he goes I've had the greatest day of my life I go wow really most people don't answer with that and

[00:11:31] he goes well you're not gonna believe it but I was just sitting here and a guy got out of a truck and he looked like Lee Greenwood the guy who sings and I'm

[00:11:39] proud to be an American and he goes I just said to him I'm like you look like Lee Greenwood and he goes I am Lee Greenwood and I said no you ain't sang it

[00:11:49] sang it and he sang some of it he said and then somebody took a picture but I had to get my email and I was so excited I'm sure I just fucked that all

[00:11:58] up and I'm never gonna get the picture I made with Lee and I go well that is the most American experience you can probably have on 4th of July is to have Lee Greenwood and then I asked my neighbor Jeff I'm like does Lee Greenwood actually

[00:12:10] live around here he goes oh yeah he lives right so I'm sure it was really Lee Greenwood. I'm like wow him and I'm proud to be an American at least I know I'm free.

[00:12:20] The problem with that song is I get it but yet I don't know that people are aware there's other countries that are free no like it's not just us like yeah but I mean kudos to Lee Greenwood for finding one song that will carry you through

[00:12:37] your career till you're dead he's at the Daytona 500 and I'm proud of me. I don't even know one other song I have to go I'm gonna throw him on Spotify today I want to hear what else Lee Greenwood sings besides that like is there enough

[00:12:53] to really carve out a whole career or is he a million dollar hire for in the you know Indianapolis 500 very Americana type things yeah he does so I hope you guys this fourth and here's the thing I know the fireworks for the dogs and the

[00:13:12] cats baby cat doesn't like it either but I don't think it's ever gonna stop on the fourth I do not understand my redneck neighbors that are still going yeah it's the ninth right guys how much shit did you buy that you forgot to set

[00:13:25] off I have two tiny baby fountains I forgot to set off and I do still plan on but they don't make any noise there's just a and then I've burnt the driveway and we're done yeah I yeah it's gotta yeah

[00:13:40] uh well I drank and laid in the pool and then I went over to the neighbors that for a year they've been asking me these two fun people and I just always kept saying yeah I just get their names are Matt and Christie and I always kept

[00:13:56] saying I swear to God I'm out of town like but eventually people are gonna stop believing you like I'm just like a liar who doesn't want to come over it which is not then that I have but I didn't want to get in I told my dad's

[00:14:07] really sick so I'm going to Missouri every week and when I'm off but I don't want to get into all that just because they don't even know me that well and that seems like too much sad information or whatever and so they

[00:14:16] invited and so I'm like yeah I believe it or not I'm actually home yeah and I'm going it was great yeah happy Saturday so my other of my neighbor Jeff and Debbie they're just wonderful people and he probably spends more than the city of

[00:14:34] Nashville I mean it is and he's turned the reins over to his son and I remember when my dad did that and it's not a comfortable year to transition ever ever ever halfway through it he goes I'm gonna give him a C so far I'm like oh my

[00:14:48] god he's doing a wonderful job he's like no there's too many pauses there's such they're like meaner than Olympic judges like and that's what my dad would go surprise all goddamn Cove hasn't been set on fire Jesus what are they doing

[00:15:00] and I'm like dad you can't give up the gig and then critique from up here or just keep it in your brain we all don't want to hear it we're enjoying this I'm enjoying someone else will go down there I'm not lighting that big shit no

[00:15:12] no fucking way no no no and not and this was not funny but America let's get it together the guy in South Carolina in the uncle Sam outfit he went and rented

[00:15:25] it then he put a firework I don't know what kind on top of the hat and he's dead like Mirka I just I want to have hope for us as a people and I know there's 350 million of us maybe more at this point man we haven't even counted

[00:15:41] the ones we ain't counting so let's call it 370 million 5 million people one guy did that that's not too bad big village how many idiots you got to do the math the ratio on that when they used to say the village idiot there was probably

[00:15:56] only 80 people in the village right so let's keep multiplying it's very sad I mean then they show the picture the guy he looks like a normal guy what I don't know what the thinking would have been now he said he was drinking but still I

[00:16:10] mean good shit I've been drinking a million for the all for the July's probably unless I was a child and I'm sure I was taking drinks of some uncle's beer where they're like that's fine you could have a little like they just let

[00:16:22] me I but I mean to be drunk enough to go I'm gonna put this on my head right is a different well it was a big top hat maybe he thought because the hat was so

[00:19:28] didn't have enough culture in me still don't probably um meanwhile you find out where she's going where is she going and then Milan and then where why am I reading her tour schedule Gelson Kirchen where is that Wow

[00:19:58] well they're a lucky group we've never even heard of the city and she's coming to it folks but okay well it's somewhere in they speak German okay well in Queen news Dolly has launched two new frozen desserts the business doesn't

[00:20:20] stop the business runs 24 hours a day in part world yep two new frozen desserts to her growing food a chocolate pie I love a chocolate pie and I hate pie I hate fruit pies chocolate pie my mom made a great one it was really just

[00:20:36] jello pudding in a pie but it was fucking great and a cheesecake now here's the thing I only like the hard cheesecakes like Sarah Lee I don't like I hate in New York Lewis will go oh joy the cheesecake I'm like no Louis gonna be

[00:20:50] that weird fluffy light cheese and I'm gonna get mad that it's not hard and doesn't have some sort of strawberries anyway I don't know what hers is like they stay in your freezer to your you're ready to thaw in the fridge

[00:21:00] before serving the boxes have directions that way you can indulge in a slice oh you could cut it in pieces and put it back in the freezer well I wouldn't need those directions Thank You Dolly don't listen to her don't listen to paddles

[00:21:15] directions and with it yep yep now here's that we're gonna learn something termites some of you may already know this and then we'll be done with Queen News and we're moving on I've got some really good stuff every really good

[00:21:31] Airbnb thing I'm trying to bring them down single-handedly I don't like things without a license I just don't yeah um even though my sister she took all the Matt the whole family went to Spain and somewhere else Oh Italy the Vatican and

[00:21:50] then they toured the Vatican and then Pope Francis was gonna come out and wave the next day at 1030 they said they thought they might swing by for a wave yeah I haven't heard any more reports on that but anyway they

[00:22:02] Airbnb'd some I'll have to find out how it was so this is a cast-iron skillet but look look it's got a butterfly with a guitar in the middle on the bottom now here's the thing this is too heavy to hang like a rich person so I don't

[00:22:16] really understand except because you're never gonna see this in a drawer or on the stove it's a collector's item right from lodge so why are they well I said latch and it sounds Midwestern II it's a lodge lodge you got so this is like

[00:22:48] they they do talk about cornbread being a big hit in this but they're trying to get away from just that idea so apparently whatever you cook in here the flavoring stays so like let's say you were to make it seasoned okay it's

[00:23:02] perfect for beginners and chefs and you could cook at any skill level wasn't that right the only way I knew when I bought a tiny tiny tiny 1200 square foot house in West Hollywood back in the day and my neighbor came over and he was

[00:23:19] like wow that's a great stove and I'm like I don't know I go I know it works though cuz I lit a cigarette it turned out to be some expensive thing that I'm like I will never ever ever use that except to light a cigarette which I

[00:23:34] shouldn't be doing in the house and I know better but it was raining so I did it anyway it's my house yeah was anyway so this is why should you choose it they're good on any kitchen stove top and then take it straight to the table

[00:23:50] to serve it can make almost anything pork chops grilled steaks sauteed veggies now I think if you have bacon and eggs in here every day over time they would be the best bacon and eggs ever you can bake a gooey skillet cookie that is a

[00:24:05] southern thing right y'all get that gooey skillet cookie it's so good I know that it's got like I think I read it's got 12,000 calories in two bites but I mean it is worth it it is worth it I don't care how big my ass gets as long

[00:24:21] as I can get that do it's gooey skillet oh my god it's made to last a lifetime by the way this was under $30 yeah so it's not they're not expensive um although it's not indestructible it can handle the heat and be used for all your

[00:24:35] culinary adventures it's a natural nonstick finish and I have no reason to be telling you people this except I always wondered if you drive from Nashville to Chattanooga there's a big billboard that says Lodge of cast-iron

[00:24:48] and I'm like what is that and they made them that's where they make them and I'm like why is this pan and then you pick it up and I'm like do I want to deal

[00:24:56] with that but you do it makes your food taste better it has heat retention there's no better way to get crispy fried chicken flavor roasted veggies or a perfect loaf of bread it's a workhorse and it's good at browning food and it

[00:25:11] is indestructible we have a whole stack of them that's right there you go so we all even cooking there you go so for under 30 bucks and you can get the dolly one if they're still available probably not I did I did get one for Bob and

[00:25:29] Clark but I don't really feel like spending the money to mail it I'm gonna make them come here and get it um update well you know what let's talk about the weather for a minute because we're gonna talk about mattress Mac

[00:25:46] mattress Mac if even if you don't go on Twitter I'm sure it's oh it's also on Instagram yeah he's my guy in Houston with the furniture stores who I actually got to meet that one day I got my picture got my picture made as they'd

[00:25:58] say in the sound got my picture made um very nice man and I know people are like well politically he's it whatever here's what here's what I know he's a philanthropist where what out what else he's doing with his money I can't help

[00:26:12] that or stop that or or I don't even get a vote it's his money as long as you do good things for me what at this point looking at all the rich people that aren't doing anything good for him he opens his stores I'm like here's my

[00:26:28] impression of Joel Osteen I'm like do you have dry eye do you need to go to an ophthalmologist what the fuck is with the blinking even my friend George Wallace the comedian and George George's religious in the fun good way Southern

[00:27:13] furniture he's gonna try to sell this shit I would be a little concerned honestly I'd be like well the only thing you can't take his animals and I get it it's a little sad um but you know you can't let everybody bring everything in

[00:27:25] there I'm gonna push for mattress Mac I'm gonna send his people at things and maybe you could get like a big warehouse for the animals right I mean he's already doing a lot but he put a video up hello Texan it's me mattress Mac this

[00:33:19] name fucker Berg this is a great tragedy and it was predicted here on this podcast you can call me Baba Venga I saw this one coming yeah Baba Venga is the blind Russian mystic in case who said by the way the end of the world is

[00:33:37] not gonna be till like 3,000 something but the decline starts in 2025 and I bet it starts with weather um a great tragedy a great tragedy cry from meta fans after beloved creation killed and begged and begged Mark Zuckerberg to do

[00:33:54] the bare minimum to fix it it's his goggles yeah well I just said they were too expensive when there's cheaper versions and I don't know how good the metal ones were but well I just don't like him let's just throw that out there

[00:34:10] but but I did my nephews and they're not those they're just a cheap ripoff version and it was perfectly fine I mean it made me sick on the roller coaster I had to take it off it was that real yeah there's been an email sent out to the

[00:34:30] owners of the original meta quest the company informed that the headset would no longer receive bug fixes or security updates so all your info in there up for the snag and yeah the and it is bullshit if you bought one yeah I mean I don't

[00:34:48] know how much they cost at the time and I'm not here to be king of the nerds but you know the nerds gotta have their stuff too and they liked it um they rounded out the email with a grim warning to customers continue to use at

[00:35:01] your own risk however if any security vulnerabilities are discovered in the future private data that is directly stored on the device or accessible from it would be at risk of compromise confusion and outrage exploded across social media as customers continue to receive notification some guy wrote

[00:35:18] this is a lot of reddit people I guess red it's popular with these guys I understand bug fixes but no security patches right this is really bad I'm still enjoying my quest and now I see how much I see how much nicer the new

[00:35:32] ones are but I can't afford a new one I feel like meta should do at least the bare minimum and fix the security holes for the older hardware yeah I do too I'm siding with all my nerds where are my nerd nerds all right it originally

[00:35:46] debuted in 2019 known as oculus quest but he's losing money left and right with the meta stuff and the thing is look there's gonna be a certain amount of people that want your goggles and then the rest of us aren't and then there's

[00:35:59] gonna be the middle ground like my brother and his wife did say the kids want them but we're not spending right so they go to wherever best buy and go get the you know Joe blow version Joe blow here's another bad thing for mr.

[00:36:15] mark I'm an Android not a human mean Zuckerberg it's not a good day for meta in the EU the European Commission says metas pay or consent advertising model is in breach of the EU's digital market acts mm-hmm bad news from them they ruled

[00:36:32] that meta must let users opt out of personalized ads based on their activity on social platforms that'll right yeah that'll kick that'll that'll piss him off um meta has now the chance to respond in writing with the preliminary findings the Commission will wrap its investigation within 12 months which

[00:36:52] began on March 24th if meta is ultimately found to be non-compliant it could face up to fines of up to 10% of its global revenue well yeah well you're high yeah he'll drag it on forever that's the problem the law moves too slowly um

[00:37:12] it had a 1.3 billion dollar fine last year for transferring Facebook users data to the US yeah I didn't care no he doesn't care it's got to be jail it's got to be prison because he doesn't care about money money means nothing

[00:37:29] nothing nothing nothing it's not really a threat okay that's all my updates this is a crazy thing I'm so glad I wasn't a cave person cave man the shit that was outside of the cave back then I mean and I'm nearsighted I couldn't even have

[00:37:57] left the cave ever ever I wouldn't see it well maybe that's better you don't see what's coming I wouldn't know everything looks like a Van Gogh painting without glasses so a giant 280 million year old salamander like

[00:38:09] creature was an apex predator before the age of dinosaurs has been discovered by fossil hunters in Nambia the shape of the head I mean this thing looks like a like a square and then a giant skinny body but it had enormous fangs so it's

[00:38:29] like a fucked-up snake a snake with a giant head when we found the enormous specimen just lying on the outcrop as a giant concretion it was just really shocking I just knew we were seeing that was something completely different we

[00:38:43] were all very excited this is nerds on fire I love it they call it gay guy guy Asia would have been the top predator of its ecosystems among the world's largest land predators at the time it had a big flat toilet sheepshead shaped head which

[00:39:01] allows its mouth to open and suck in prey it has huge fangs and the whole front of the mouth is just giant teeth it's a big predator but potentially also relatively slow ambush predator oh my god so I walk out of the cave and it's

[00:39:15] just right by the door of the cave that's it I'm gone I can't wait to see them recreate this thing so there you go we found that be glad you're living now when people got the world in such bad shape yeah well you're not gonna walk

[00:39:30] out your front door and see an enormous snake that just gonna bite your goddamn head off are you no you're not might see a skunk might see a rabbit that's it there's not gonna be a t-rex or anything coming at you this is kind of

[00:39:42] crazy archaeologists on earth significant religious relic that depicts Moses receiving the Ten Commandments yeah it was uh they were excavating a church in Austria and they found a marble shrine inside of it it's a 1500 year old ivory box that depicts a scene of Moses receiving the Ten Commandments

[00:40:06] from God on Mount Sinai as described in the Old Testament along with imagery of saints in the ascension of Christ the circular shaped box is deemed significant due to its sacred early Christianity objects being extremely rare only 40 such discoveries have been made worldwide the last one was found

[00:40:22] during excavation excavations about a hundred years ago so it's a big thing then here's here's nerds on fire we all know this only happens once in archaeologists life as a scientist said Gerald grabber lead archaeologist the discovery was made by the University's of University of Innsbruck

[00:40:41] researchers who were excavating blah blah blah so it was yeah I mean you know it makes you believe like I mean I believe the stories in the Bible but I don't know as a Catholic we were taught that yeah you get to just like it's not don't

[00:40:58] don't go all word for wordy it's been handed down a lot people rewrote shit you know it's mostly true you know but yeah that's what we were taught I'm not saying it's the right thing just so very cool I wonder what they're gonna do with

[00:41:15] it better go to a museum that's my vote moving on to news oh what are we watching well shark week started July 7th goes through 13th Sun Discovery Channel in case you want to watch that and Euro Cup

[00:42:01] American team come on yeah that's who we're rooting for I've been watching Wimbledon not as much as my friend Laurene Laurene is all in she played like in college and all that she knows everything like I would know about golf

[00:42:13] she knows everything about every player so I don't even have to do any research I just text her and say do we like this guy or not and then she tells me why or

[00:42:21] what about this lady and she gives me the whole thing and Coco golf is out a little shocking and besides that I haven't really watched there's nothing new it's very sad on Netflix and Amazon there's nothing really new and I know

[00:42:38] they do that because it's summer and they think everybody is out frolicking but sometimes it's so this is really hot and I want something new to binge right yeah nothing I can't find anything news do you like the store big lots no why

[00:42:59] you got a hunt I know my mom and her nun friend Liz Shea used to go want once a week to big lots they had just party in a box they could they loved it I don't I

[00:43:10] went once this is how and it doesn't matter so I went with my mom and Liz them up one day and I'm like okay there was this big rack of little like eight to twelve year old boys coats but they were sports stuff so at the time

[00:43:30] originally if you don't follow football that the Rams were in loss it was at LA Rams then they moved to st. Louis became a st. Louis Rams then they moved back to LA and became the other Rams again well it was the time when the st. Louis Rams

[00:43:43] were in st. Louis and I went and looked at a coat for my one nephew and it was it was a Rams jacket it was totally cute except on the sleeve it said LA Rams

[00:43:53] right like that's how old this is they didn't sell the merch in LA and they've shipped it to Missouri and went well there's still Rams and I bought it because I told my boy I told my cousin Barry I'm like it's still a good coat

[00:44:05] but now I sound like my mother and I'm like right Kathleen but has a wrong goddamn team on it he's 10 he can read he's not gonna want to rock around I go we'll tell him it's a collector's item and there's only like five left and

[00:44:16] we'll just make up this big story about why it's super special and then he can relate that story to his friends who make fun of him they moved back as my coat I feel it yes fuck the Rams um yeah anyway I don't know I've only been in

[00:44:33] Big Lots a couple times there is one by my house that I wish was something else I wish it was like a TJ Maxx or a Marshall's or something just cuz I don't or a big bar well Big Lots is having a lot of problems and they may

[00:44:49] have to declare they blame the economy for 10% drop in sales it's reportedly lost 132 million yeah they're they're gonna try to get through it but if they're pretty much sure they're gonna have to fire off for bankruptcy yeah

[00:45:05] they fit and store closures a lot of stores are closing so get on in there yes there might be some good sale maybe I'll go in and do the work of the Lord make a little video and so everyone else doesn't have to go I don't I assume

[00:45:17] they're all kind of the same around the country I don't I mean this one looks like the one in st. Louis I don't know they've used their all their cash up in 2022 2023 the first quarter it remains in compliance but it's getting weird

[00:45:30] so just saying they're looking to read sell its remaining real estate through the outright sale or lease or lease back opportunities Wow sad my mom would be very sad to hear this news well she still likes Big Lots if we're in st.

[00:45:46] Louis she wants to stop for sure Seattle squirrel squirrel this is exciting okay I guess as far as a women getting to move up in sports the Seattle Kraken you non hockey fans that is their hockey team established when recently only

[00:46:10] three years ago well I love their uniforms they're really cool looking and it's hard at this point to come up with a cool uniform because everybody else took all the good colors they're really great 20 21 22 is their first

[00:46:25] season yeah they should always had a hockey team I don't understand why they didn't they're up north the Seattle Totems in 1975 Wow were they well the Seattle Kraken promoted Jessica Campbell in a historic move on Wednesday the

[00:46:43] Kraken hired Campbell as a full-time assistant coach which makes her the first woman to hold a position in NFL history NHL history the move had been largely expected after her run as assistant coach with it there a HL affiliate

[00:46:56] Coachella Valley Firebirds and she was also the first woman behind a bench in that leagues history firebirds fire in Coachella yes cuz all the birds are on fire I actually saw a video of a palm tree that imploded and it was smoking

[00:47:12] it's so hot the palm tree caught itself on fire I mean okay everything's fine everything's fine it's just summer goddamn Kathleen she's someone anyway good luck to this lady I hope she does a good job cuz now she's got the whole all

[00:47:29] the girls on her back they want to become a NHL coach I can't even imagine ESPN 2 one time I had to go in the Omaha Lancers locker room for this funny thing we're supposed to be doing and I've never smelled anything like that my life

[00:47:40] and I'm like get me the fuck out of here I quit ESPN 2 this I'm gonna vomit I am gonna vomit what the hockey equipment but I bet football I've never been a football like I bet that smells bad too everybody's sweating and all

[00:47:56] right this this next story makes me laugh so every time like my Irish cousins and stuff when we talk about the EU and all that Greece is your lazy sibling this is according to them who won't get off the couch and pitch it they they're just

[00:48:11] like but it's a wonderful place so they kind of get away with it it's like saying you're a really handsome lazy teenager yeah you're hot so you get away with a lot you're smoking out Greece has always been the one that isn't really

[00:48:24] contributing it's Germany you know the places that Greece is a vacation area it's a tourist destination but is it like really producing something no well they're thinking about now bringing back the six-day workweek you guys barely

[00:48:38] work one you're gonna go from nothing to six don't even suggest these things in your own nation you stay in that EU and you stay on that couch and you just become a wonderful place for tourists to go and start limiting the amount of

[00:48:55] them there's too goddamn many of them everybody's starting to do that now you tell them Germans will work harder they're good at it they're linear they enjoy it you like organization you you like all of it just keep on going

[00:49:09] Germany a six-day workweek and then the next sentence is this for you paddle could Canada follow no what is the matter with people don't bring this shit up at a meeting oh no no be like Ireland be like Italy just do some stuff we're

[00:49:29] number eight we're that's why I can never run for president I would be like USA doesn't need to be number one that's a lot of weight on our shoulders but and but I don't think I could get a crowd chanting USA number nine workers

[00:49:48] in Greece are going to have a little bit longer starting this week with the country introducing a six-day workweek for some these are also people there's a shit-ton of government jobs that are only like a few days a week and then

[00:50:00] they retire super duper early I'm on board with all of it I agree with the Greeks let's just this is I don't know what kind of type a lunatic brought this kind of thinking into this country but that person needs to be found and

[00:50:12] shipped off to somewhere serious as a part of the new net labor laws passed this year some Greek workers began a 48-hour workweek starting Monday a move that union representatives from across industries have termed barbaric I don't

[00:50:28] disagree you can't make up for a hundred years laying on the couch being the hot one no you just go you let me do it the EU you're allowing it you haven't kicked us out there been talks about should we kick the one off the couch and then

[00:50:40] you're like I know but it's Greece come on don't you want to go to meek and all yeah you do look at all the pretty paintings that come out of there with the white buildings the pro-business government of Prime Minister

[00:50:54] Kyrgios me so Takis said that the change I did I made him Japanese said the changes are growth or in or in and the necessary given the country's shrinking population lack of skilled labor so you're gonna make the ones that are left

[00:51:10] work triple he described the whole situation as a ticking time bomb yeah but it's not if you're in the EU right you just call call grandma Germany and maybe send you some money however the move is not finding many takers in Canada

[00:51:26] Canada's not on board we do not have an urgent need to fix Canada's declining productivity however the solution is not necessary is not necessarily to adopt longer work hours but rather to work in a smarter way thank you Canada yeah

[00:51:40] that's according to Diane Velasco senior director on the future of work in the Canadian Chamber of Commerce yeah she doesn't sound just your job description I go boo-boo they're not gonna do it the the people are saying no

[00:51:59] more than 40 hours I don't even think it should be 40 I'm in for four day work weeks why do we have to and then we seem to be leaning that way and then people freak out they want to do it I I just think it's funny that Greece is

[00:52:14] like shit we haven't done anything in a long time fuck let's work all week no don't don't lose your minds everything's fine don't panic cracker barrel oh yeah I've got to get there and do the work of the Lord maybe

[00:54:07] ordered everything on the menu all right might take an extra minute you didn't get a lot no problem did you watch American Horror Story termites I watched season with Coven and then I watched another season and some of them

[00:54:23] are too disturbing I can't do it but Coven was so good because it had Jessica Lang Kathy Bates Angela Bessette Emma Roberts there was a lot of good young youngsters in there there's an actor with Down syndrome she's

[00:54:36] fantastic Jamie yeah she was great anyway and it's about witches in New Orleans well the New Orleans mansion mansion featured in American Horror Story hits the market for 5.4 million and nobody's going I don't think I would

[00:54:56] do I believe Coven well do I believe in witches and vampires if they're anywhere they're in New Orleans which is why I like New Orleans I like to look at people in the bar and think is that a vampire is that a witch do I believe

[00:55:13] there's spooky voodoo yes yes yes yes yes it's a hundred sixty-eight old Greek revival estate it was featured on the FX series third season mrs. Robichaux's Academy for exceptional yeah but it was really called Coven I think was Siri but

[00:55:30] this is the house where the witches they were getting the young witches from around the country and riling them up Sarah Paulson yeah she's great everybody was great Ryan Murphy does a great job of getting the older actors

[00:55:44] who aren't getting enough love anymore they want to act they want to work so he brings them in the Jessica's the Kathy Bates is and then he gets the new up-and-comers Patti LuPone plays the religious neighbor it was great anyway

[00:55:59] the estate in New Orleans garden was showcased in the 2013 third season blah blah blah it's a three-story home it also earlier claimed to fame as the storied Buckner mansion the mansion was constructed for Henry Sullivan Buckner reportedly a cotton trader and slave owner who had

[00:56:23] property plantations warehouses and ships the estate built in 1856 was the grandest occupant of the street when the garden district was still its own town of Lafayette yeah it's one of the largest surviving homes designed by notable New

[00:56:38] Orleans so-and-so architect oh wow in 1923 the family sold the property in the home became the site of Seoul Business College with former quarters for people behind the home turning into dorm rooms oh I don't know if I'd want to be

[00:56:54] sad yeah that could be haunted real easily the school offered typing I can type my ass off just saying I'm just oh oh I can type like a madman now if you're gonna ask me to keep it within margins it's not happening it looks like

[00:57:09] I typed it like I told my dad I go I can type a hundred nine words a minute I got up to honor he goes wow he goes there secretaries this is way back hey you

[00:57:17] know making good money if you can get over a hundred I go problem is mine don't necessarily all fit on the page I'm just saying how fast I can do it there I don't understand margins because I don't understand math I just put

[00:57:29] margins wherever they look kind of okay to me I'm like that's fine you get the point and then it's just anyway it offered typing shorthanded bookkeeping courses and had notable alumni yeah school years after the school shut down

[00:57:46] it became a favorite for TV so it's been used as a filming location forever it was in 2022 is the estate featuring Toni Collette and Savannah Ferris using it as a central I don't know part of it um it's the crown jewel of New Orleans

[00:57:59] but I read an update on it and I believe it's been 52 days yeah my favorite actor in Coven is always gonna be Jessica Oh Stevie Stevie Nicks is in it she goes hi I'm Steve her acting is really bad but it's fine cuz it's she's really just

[00:58:22] doing Stevie they don't really hire her to act they're like I wish you all luck in the final witch test or whatever it is good luck everyone but then she comes on singing and I live to see that seven wonders and who's the one who plays

[00:58:38] Misty the witch oh she's great Lily Ray she's in it she's a swamp witch it's just it's so great sometimes I love Ryan Murphy and that other times I'm horrified by the things that can enter his mind I don't know what happened to

[00:58:51] him as a child some of the ones were so disturbing I'm like I'm out right carnival uh-huh the the asylum one oh yeah oh it's so dark and so miserable and then there was a bottom rowan oak where yeah too hard too hard um I am

[00:59:11] single-handedly complaining about Airbnb and VR verbal verbal because like in the Ozarks I I sold my little condo deal and then I didn't know my dad was gonna this all stuff was gonna happen with my dad and I was I want to build a

[00:59:28] house there so when I'm old I can just live there all the time but so I didn't have a place and I had a verb oh a shit ton in the last two years and it just

[00:59:37] kept getting worse the last one and then you don't want to write nothing bad on there cuz then they'll say I'm an asshole the TV in the main bedroom was on the floor I mean seriously it worked but you know you'd have to sit on the

[00:59:50] edge of the bed and look down and then I'm looking for shit to prop it up on and then I thought fuck it I'm not even in none of it did none of them it's all

[00:59:57] streaming now and I got to do every app and sign in don't have the patience I just don't take out the train like all these rules then there were a lot of

[01:00:06] termites it hit me up in it cuz I like to know am I the only one but I'm also old-school child of a lawyer I still don't don't love uber and I don't like all these unlicensed things where no one's responsible let's say you get an

[01:00:23] uber accident that's bad good luck now if that was a taxi that had a license that was part of a company now I sound old bring back taxis I'm just saying no you have to regulate Airbnb and you have to regulate verbal like does

[01:00:38] verbal even care what the shit looks like you're renting out I don't think they care at all and I don't know I'll have to hear my sister like my sister's like yeah but there's five of us so we have to get two hotel rooms so the

[01:00:50] being an Airbnb is cheaper if they can get a big house but I'm like yeah but then you get there and you don't have coffee you don't know how to turn on the TV I don't know maybe I'm spoiled the old way but in there could be cameras

[01:01:02] everywhere I'm a big fan of a front desk that's why I love Marriott's because my gay grandpas are in the oil painting and I know they're there to protect me and I know there's security and I know I can call down and go can I please have a

[01:01:16] ham sandwich and someone's gonna bring one well there's a ham sandwich it's just their Caesar salad the food is consistent nothing is a wonderful product Marriott wonderful from all the way from a from old-timey courtyard all

[01:01:28] the way up to the JW brand it's just a wonderful I just like a hotel I did not enjoy my verbo year-and-a-half experience every week Sunday Monday Tuesday in the Ozarks in somebody else's and if I saw one more Lake life sign I

[01:01:45] was just gonna and question for Lake people this goes for all Lake people mostly in the middle in the south why is it that every condo I go in there's ocean shit on the walls we don't live at the ocean no there's lighthouses we

[01:01:59] don't have a fucking lighthouse you need up you need a carp up there and a bass and a copperhead and a cottonmouth yeah they go to look they go to home goods and buy all this ocean shit and I'm like do you all wish you were at the

[01:02:13] ocean you can go yeah it's it's happy hour every hour at the lake every like I'm like this is all because of home goods and what's the one I won't go in anymore with the good wrapping paper but they're too mean to be yeah they're

[01:02:32] too mean to their boys hobby lobby they have a lot of that shit cuz on tick-tock somebody goes in every week and arranges their letters you know they have light up letters like for decoration and says Trump is a dick and then they wait till

[01:02:45] somebody finds it and has to rearrange it but I'm like now that's boredom like I anyway yeah we're not gonna talk about politics but I will say this I said this to my friend Ronin Ronin Hirschberg very funny comedian he's nothing like me so

[01:03:02] I'm recommending him as something very different than me and you may not it may be too much for my people but I enjoy Ronin we were texting back and forth and not this isn't political but it a little bit but Biden doesn't seem to be able to

[01:03:18] keep up that's a nice way and I said I'm he's kind of aged out at time to transition and Jill seems to seems to be banging the war drums to keep going and

[01:03:32] here's what's crazy I said to Ron Ronin my mom told my dad he was crazy and he wasn't even doing anything she had no problem telling him hey fucknut you are not right in the head anymore he's just sitting there watching a Cardinal game

[01:03:46] I'm like well tone it down mom and that's what he turned like a crime boss he's like Vicki I know I'm not a hundred percent I'm like okay see he's good he knew what that all me knows what he's talking about mom but she would have

[01:03:58] told him Jack we're not no no we're not doing that and he would have listened so anyway Ronin and I Ronin has a special on YouTube called brave if you want to go watch you will put it in this job no room for privacy how Airbnb

[01:04:16] fails to protect guests from hidden cameras I think about that every time I made one of these guys and I don't even do nothing I'm walking around in my shorts and a t-shirt but then I'm like well I don't have a bra on wonder if I'm

[01:04:27] on camera and is someone filming me I don't know possibly it was another loss here's another lawsuit brought by another victim whose fun-filled vacation turned into a voyeuristic nightmare a woman was secretly recording undressing at a rental property her images stored on the computer of an alleged sexual

[01:04:44] predator accused of spying on the unsuspecting renters for years but once again who's gonna stop you and I know some of them because the locks that they have this is what I would have been afraid of if I was my sister doing this

[01:04:59] in Europe one lady at the lake I will not repeat her name I know it I was supposed to check out at 10 it keeps getting earlier and earlier and then I was just gonna move all my shit over my sister's condo is in the same complex

[01:05:12] well she locked the door I was literally moving shit out into the car to move to my sisters and she locked it am I should still in there I had a flight I'm like I

[01:05:23] gotta go to work well so I called no answer well fuck I mean it was hot and I god damn it she she locked it at 10 to 10 I think you know remotely yeah now

[01:05:37] she did pick up thank God but let's say my sister's in Spain she doesn't speak anything but English um how what and then if the code doesn't work or I don't know maybe I'm just getting old and I just anticipate but these things kept

[01:05:52] happening if you do it consistently you'll see yeah pull um Airbnb one of the words like the world's largest short-term rental companies has seen this sort of scenario before typically the company seeks to settle hidden camera cases quickly and confidentially so they're paying people off right don't

[01:06:08] don't bring it up here's here's 500 grand go away but if it was 500 grand someone can absolutely film me without a bra no problem no problem I'll take 250 no I'll take a hundo just give me 100 grand now that means no he sure ain't

[01:06:24] coming off but no bro but this one played out differently an Airbnb representative testified at a court-ordered deposition early last year offered a rare glimpse into the company's hidden camera problem Airbnb has generated tens of thousands of customers support tickets related to

[01:06:45] servants device surveillance devices in the last decade the company may however reach out to his host companies as part of an internal inquiries move law enforcement experts say could hinder criminal investigation because it gives suspects time to destroy destroy evidence absolutely yeah if Airbnb gets

[01:07:03] the complaint they call Bob and go hey man you got cameras and shit just erase all that all right cuz they're gonna go to the cops yeah you've now it's two two people committing the crime and now the cops got on rail that they failed a CNN

[01:07:17] investigation found that Airbnb consistently fails to protect its guests despite knowing hidden cameras are persistent concern within the industry Airbnb's corporate strategies more ever have been aimed at preventing regulation right they don't want any regulation on short-term rental market to allow the

[01:07:31] company to distance itself from responsibility for guest safety and privacy it's also ruining vacation spots the condo complex at the lake of the Ozarks where now my sister hurt that condo the one that I used to own that one

[01:07:45] is hers now um there's a million people at the pool I don't know we used to know most everybody in the thing now no I think there's people coming that aren't even staying there and they're just coming to the pool there's no one there

[01:07:57] to stop it right yeah and then the Airbnb bullshit there were girls from Omaha and I did laugh but I shouldn't in the condo next to me this was what my dad was real sick of all that and so I didn't need a laugh and she didn't get

[01:08:11] hurt so that's the only reason I laugh I just when it all happened they were so drunk and so I mean they're young they're fun and they're in the lake of the Ozarks and it's just they can't believe that it's just fantastic well

[01:08:23] the one girl fell with a beer a solo cup all the way down the set upstairs I know but she's laughing and going guys the whole time she's falling and she landed

[01:08:32] and I went oh my god are you alright I just happen to be loading shit in the car she's like oh good and I so then I started laughing because in retrospect watching it but they were Airbnb kids so do you your house your little vacation

[01:08:48] condo that's supposed to be the getaway is now party town and once again I'm a drinker I'm a stay-er-upper I'm with you till about one in the morning and then we got to shut that shit down yeah no it's not happening I know the people

[01:09:02] Amsterdam's really it's a global problem Amsterdam's mad about it they're gonna cap off shit everybody's just sick of it but these people are running wild um so victims say they live under the shadow of the fear these private moments will

[01:09:18] become internet fodder yes right this is not my social security number or my email is my naked body Airbnb of course declined a request for an interview however written statement they said hidden camera complaints are rare but

[01:09:30] when they do we take appropriate swift action which can include removing host and listing violate listings that violate the policy they don't check anything how about the TV on the floor the one person and I know I didn't want

[01:09:43] to say something because I was gonna get blamed for breaking it I rented the same one a lot because it was closer to my mom and dad's house and in those X and

[01:09:52] the coffee maker didn't work so trip one I was like it's supposed to be a Keurig deal yeah didn't work at all nothing happened when you hit it off and I thought god damn it but I thought I don't want to say it they're gonna think I did

[01:10:05] it right so I didn't say nothing and then I I clearly was the next lady to re-rent it no one else did and I'm like oh shit yeah and I you know I'm flying

[01:10:17] in from all over the country I don't I can't bring my own tiny Keurig I have a tiny Keurig but I don't I can't be packing that shit too Brian Chesky was unemployed when he his roommate came up with the idea for Airbnb in 2007 while

[01:10:31] struggling to make rent in San Francisco's for 80 and not $80 a night they opened their home to three travelers making offering them air mattresses but this is how it all started I just do not like the lack of regulation still violent crime and prostitution as well as travelers death

[01:10:48] have repeatedly forced Airbnb and its competitors into the international spotlight despite all these concerns a company for years allowed videos surveillance by hosts in common areas if the cameras were disclosed oh that's the other thing I was looking for coffee filters and I opened the top cabinet

[01:11:08] and there's a camera what now it was closed yeah so it wasn't filming but why is it there right right weird I'm sure many many people have left these rooms not even know they were ever recorded you can have all these great rules but

[01:11:26] if no one's checking that the rules are followed it's still the kind of wild it's still kind of the Wild West CNN interviewed more than a dozen police investigations in Las Vegas across the book I don't know I'm sure there's good

[01:11:36] stories I did not experience any not in the Ozarks it's a shit show um I will report back from my sister and their European vacation yeah aren't they lucky kids yes yeah I know we went to either Florida which only happened about

[01:11:54] once every three years we had to save up but mainly we just went to Lake of the Ozarks but I was totally happy with that but I mean like Europe Spain Portugal Jesus Christ I didn't get to go to Rome till I was 40 I don't even know

[01:12:08] when I took my mom story I tell on Comedy Central if you're bored on YouTube first we went to Paris yeah we're almost a rat well we were kind of arrested I guess I don't I couldn't stop laughing all I did was laugh for six

[01:12:22] hours straight at the fucking stupidity of my sister and then my mom and the neighbor Rose who my mom decided to bring along cuz our my sister-in-law Amy dropped out she's like oh so I just asked Rose who's never left Missouri

[01:12:34] she's also 80 right you got a bad knee mom your front tooth falling out so you won't smile in pictures this whole trip doesn't sound good I thought it was fine if it was me Amy and Kate we'll take my mom but then I go mom could you

[01:12:53] have maybe run that by us Rose is a nice lady you'll do it you just don't say a word about it okay she is a nice lady she was a nice lady she's passed away I did not use her real name in the story because she was still

[01:13:06] alive at the time all right this is very strange so you know King Arthur's magical sword in the stone okay well France has its own version of that what yep had someone has stolen it the Excalibur sword suddenly vanishes after

[01:13:25] 1,300 years wedged in stone I'm shocked this hasn't happened before now on June 22nd it's called the Durandal sword has earned its own mythological credentials by having embedded high up on a rock in the south central village of Rocamadour

[01:13:44] for some 1,300 years on Saturday the soon the sword suddenly vanished from its rocky bed and no one can work out how the thief took it it was a legendary sort of role a sort of Roland a renowned warrior and the protagonist of the 11th

[01:13:59] century epic poem the show song DeRosa according to the story which is the oldest surviving work of major work of French literature he was it was the sharpest sort of all-time capable of slicing through boulders in a single

[01:14:15] strike and there's a picture of it the myth also states that within its golden hilt was in it was embedded a tooth of st. Peter the blood of st. Basil the great the hair of st. Dennis and a piece of the Virgin Mary's clothes that's a lot

[01:14:31] of shit to have in your sword the instructable indestructible weapon it was said to have been brought by an angel to the then King of King of the Franks Charlemagne who subsequently believed bequeathed it to Roland then before his

[01:14:47] death Roland allegedly tried to destroy this sword on rocks to prevent his enemies from taking it but his efforts were in vain eventually he hurled it into the air in a last-ditch attempt to save it from their clutches miraculously

[01:15:00] it traveled hundreds of miles before embedding itself in the cliff face of miles Wow a flying sword Wow who took it police are just really desperately trying to figure out how someone could have sold it it was after all wedged to

[01:15:14] some 33 feet up attached by a chain with no means of access I mean you'd have to bring in like what they might get for the telephone poles all we can say is whoever took it might become the stuff of legend one day themselves I wouldn't

[01:15:38] take it are you kidding no it's horrible luck well of course it's a magical sword it's a magical sword yeah I don't know yeah that was the thing at a time all right I've got a couple more I'm gonna save these for next week because they're

[01:15:58] pretty intense here's some here's some holiday good news Hallmark people the Chiefs plan to partner with Hallmark for the production of a holiday it's gonna be called holiday touchdown a Chiefs love story oh adorable oh my god they

[01:16:19] will here's what I don't think the Hallmark channels good at sports filming this is gonna be a disaster when they try to do the clips of that yeah I love you Kansas City I love Hallmark mmm that's its corporate headquarters oh I'm

[01:16:34] still mad they didn't give me a job after college but whatever I'll let that go I'm doing fine yeah but they didn't know that was gonna happen no they didn't yeah they could have me writing their cards it's all I wanted to

[01:16:46] do I wanted to write cards that weren't so nice yeah oh I don't know like like funny nice like my mom because my mom drank a lot in her 40s on my 40th birthday she sent me a card enjoy your enjoy your 40s I don't remember mine but

[01:17:05] your father said I was a terror good she stopped drinking after a while just I don't know funny shit like that like not so sweet and every call mark card I've ever bought we our whole family crosses out the words that are intended

[01:17:22] in writing our own I mean like sarcastic funny things anyway doesn't matter the filming location is at the same venue where Travis Kelsey originally attempted to connect with Swift via a friendship bracelet it's Arrowhead Stadium it's

[01:17:36] gonna be so epic for Missouri and we have a feel-good story and then if you thank yous and my quotes my quote books are gone I had to move all this and then

[01:17:51] it's okay I can make up I can make up some sort of I have to catch them Oh yeah this is a great story tiny story about the post office and a postal carrier because I love the post office I support the post office and this is

[01:18:14] this guy's so cute rule he's a rural character carrier from Morgan Field Kentucky his name's Matt trip he's absolutely adorable he was delivering mail in Morgan Field when he came up on a cat with her head stuck in a tin can

[01:18:29] he was trip was unable to safely remove the can so we called animal control and stayed with the cat until the officers arrived she was taken to a shelter shelter where the can was safely removed shelter employees determined that her

[01:18:42] head meds stuck for almost 24 hours she was treated for dehydration the cat whose name is Jasper was reunited with their owners I suspect the cat would not have lived had Matt not called for help see and he stayed with the cat that was from

[01:18:56] termite Clara that came to the box yeah so thank you for that I love the it's the most efficient thing the United States government does somebody tell me it works something better than post office now my friend Jeff he will argue

[01:19:08] it's not profitable enough which is probably true but not everything it was meant for massive amounts of profit some of it's just meant so that everybody can do the same thing for a very low price yeah all right I gotta say thank you a

[01:19:24] couple termites um Christy Kansas City sent me some Lake Ozarks sticker very cool for my notebook jaws the mince right here the things I talked about those are from Dan he's from Boston from Boston my jackalope cycling t-shirt for

[01:21:09] went out by the way the Cardinals are in second place so I'm moving Fred bird yeah I kind of agree with this New York Times magazine she said Tay Tay said some days I totally appreciate everything that's happening to me and

[01:21:29] some days I feel like everyone's waiting for me to mess up I think she's getting so big and so global that that backlash could come but I do believe the army of the children will stop that and I would like to just say and I'm gonna read the

[01:21:43] whole story next week to embarrass Louis black who went to UNC his beloved UNC they attacked Dolly Parton what I'm gonna tell you about it next week and I said to Louis don't ever ever and he thinks it's worse that they let back all

[01:22:00] these sporting people not really attend classes and then they still didn't win I go you cheated and you sucked at cheating and you still lost that is totally offensive but that is not all kinds of schools are cheating and letting

[01:22:14] kids go through we know that Vic Henley would have told Jack everybody he would be like people at Alabama people in Alabama football team can't even read nobody cares it's just me you big you run ball thank you he goes education is

[01:27:17] think maybe you got a few of them a few of the traits but they get along great they play on their iPads and yeah yeah she said he's been extremely friendly so that's all good good for Pat and little Pat and that's it then I'm back on the

[01:27:34] road road road road road road I'm excited yep I'm gonna try to hit some chief game all Titans games because they're cheap because the Titans are terrible there are usually more fans from visiting cities and when the Chiefs
