[00:00:08] [SPEAKER_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.

[00:00:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Termites, welcome to Episode 198. Welcome to the Queen of Rock and Rolls TV Next. That's right. Okay, let's put Stevie back over here.

[00:00:33] [SPEAKER_03]: So many things, Termites. Wow, what a crazy week.

[00:00:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Crazy week. What a crazy week. First of all, well what are we drinking? This is a pub beer lager from 10 Barrel Brewing Company, from Bend, Oregon, which came from Termite Catherine, and in University of Utah, pint glass, yeah, from Utah Termite Joy. So that's what I'm drinking.

[00:01:00] [SPEAKER_03]: The Utah Utes.

[00:01:02] [SPEAKER_03]: The Utah Utes, yeah. Dry campus.

[00:01:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Good for you.

[00:01:10] [SPEAKER_01]: You survived.

[00:01:11] [SPEAKER_03]: As Rocky Laporte would say, good for you.

[00:01:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't even want to say that people maybe or may not snuck liquor in there because I don't want people to get in trouble.

[00:01:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want the people to not book me back, but we had a wonderful time at the show.

[00:01:26] [SPEAKER_03]: And I did put on Instagram, somebody had a pumpkin, and they carved out the top, and then put a bag of beer in the pumpkin.

[00:01:33] [SPEAKER_03]: So great.

[00:01:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never had a bag of beer.

[00:01:35] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, you know what, I'm going to open this.

[00:01:37] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's probably in the notes who brought it, but it was...

[00:01:40] [SPEAKER_04]: I couldn't find a card.

[00:01:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, no card?

[00:01:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I couldn't find a card.

[00:01:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, they got on Instagram.

[00:01:45] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a shout out.

[00:01:45] [SPEAKER_03]: It was great.

[00:01:45] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a shout out.

[00:01:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Before I even get it...

[00:01:49] [SPEAKER_03]: So let's start with last night.

[00:01:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh-huh.

[00:01:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Did a benefit at the Ryman.

[00:01:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[00:01:54] [SPEAKER_03]: For what?

[00:01:55] [SPEAKER_03]: For the hurricane relief.

[00:01:57] That's nice.

[00:01:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:01:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Monday's great because we're all home.

[00:01:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And everybody's in town.

[00:02:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And it was Nate Bargatze.

[00:02:03] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what I say now.

[00:02:04] [SPEAKER_03]: It's Bargatze or something.

[00:02:05] [SPEAKER_03]: I can't get it.

[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Bargatze.

[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I guess I've never said it right.

[00:02:08] No.

[00:02:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Leanne Morgan, who I love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.

[00:02:11] [SPEAKER_03]: She's cool.

[00:02:11] [SPEAKER_03]: I met her husband, who's a big fan of mine.

[00:02:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Nice.

[00:02:14] [SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, that was nice to hear.

[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_03]: He's a gigantic man.

[00:02:17] [SPEAKER_03]: He's seven foot nine at least.

[00:02:20] [SPEAKER_03]: But Leanne's really tall.

[00:02:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Dusty Slay, one of my favorites.

[00:02:25] [SPEAKER_03]: John Criss.

[00:02:25] Yep.

[00:02:26] [SPEAKER_03]: I always say that wrong because sometimes he did Christian things.

[00:02:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I thought he was Christ.

[00:02:30] That would be ideal.

[00:02:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Wouldn't it be ideal if you were a Christian comic and your name was John

[00:02:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Christ?

[00:02:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Christ.

[00:02:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's Christ.

[00:02:37] [SPEAKER_03]: He's always very friendly.

[00:02:38] [SPEAKER_03]: There were so many people.

[00:02:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Charlie Barron's great Wisconsin.

[00:02:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I did a podcast with him called Cripes podcast, but it's not ready yet.

[00:02:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Cripes cast.

[00:02:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Cripes cast.

[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_03]: I can't keep it straight.

[00:02:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I do way too many of them, but his was good cause it's very Midwest centric.

[00:02:55] [SPEAKER_04]: Cool.

[00:02:55] [SPEAKER_03]: We were the two Midwest East people.

[00:02:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Everybody else on there is pretty Southern.

[00:02:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah.

[00:03:00] [SPEAKER_03]: And I could tell Leanne's crowd and John's crowd when I busted out with my Catholic jokes.

[00:03:06] [SPEAKER_03]: There was a lot of confusion.

[00:03:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Like that kind of confusion would not happen in Boston.

[00:03:10] [SPEAKER_03]: That kind of give you.

[00:03:11] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, just stick me with me.

[00:03:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Christian people.

[00:03:14] [SPEAKER_03]: They did laugh really hard though.

[00:03:15] [SPEAKER_03]: When I said it, I moved to the South and I immediately found out that as a Catholic,

[00:03:20] [SPEAKER_03]: like I am not a Christian.

[00:03:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I had no idea breaking news to me and they all laugh cause they think that just like,

[00:03:25] [SPEAKER_03]: but it was a really fun time.

[00:03:28] [SPEAKER_03]: And a little singer, Lainey, somebody, uh, she saying not Lainey Wilson, um, a newer one,

[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_03]: very nice young person, the children backstage.

[00:03:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I'm forgetting somebody though.

[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_03]: John Dusty, me.

[00:03:43] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, Karen.

[00:03:44] [SPEAKER_04]: Karen.

[00:03:45] [SPEAKER_04]: Karen Mills.

[00:03:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:03:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Karen was great.

[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_03]: She emceed.

[00:03:48] [SPEAKER_03]: That's the hardest part of the night.

[00:03:49] [SPEAKER_03]: That's the hard.

[00:03:49] [SPEAKER_03]: That's the suckiest job of all.

[00:03:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Cause you have to pay attention all night.

[00:03:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I'm done with my set.

[00:03:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Now I can just enjoy the other comedians and grab a beer and not have to think about

[00:03:57] [SPEAKER_03]: it anymore.

[00:03:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and Nate, um, Nate, I said Nate, but yeah, I think they raised $130,000.

[00:04:05] [SPEAKER_03]: That'll go to Eastern Tennessee and North Carolina too, I guess.

[00:04:10] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know some fund, but they still brought out the giant check.

[00:04:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, are we still doing the giant check thing?

[00:04:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, that's like from a game show in the seventies.

[00:04:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, can we just do, um, a giant QR code and then you can donate more and put like one

[00:04:25] [SPEAKER_03]: 30 or whatever was raised.

[00:04:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Hi baby cat.

[00:04:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you come for the podcast?

[00:04:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:04:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Are you needing my day of the dead blanket?

[00:04:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't ruin it.

[00:04:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Just get comfortable.

[00:04:36] Oh boy.

[00:04:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I just got a shitty look for rep rep.

[00:04:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:04:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:04:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, so that was a great time.

[00:04:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Little dwarf was there.

[00:04:45] [SPEAKER_03]: All the doors were there.

[00:04:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Yay for the dwarfins.

[00:04:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, but you know what?

[00:04:51] [SPEAKER_03]: You really want to hear something funny.

[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:04:53] [SPEAKER_03]: So you had a, an email went around.

[00:04:56] [SPEAKER_03]: What would you like backstage?

[00:04:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:04:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I said, as I always say, six Miller light.

[00:05:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:05:02] [SPEAKER_03]: That's all I put or make ultra, but I bring my own, I bring my own bottle of water and

[00:05:07] [SPEAKER_03]: occasionally I want a soda, but, um, everybody else said like herbal tea and, uh, somebody

[00:05:14] [SPEAKER_03]: wanted a sushi roll.

[00:05:16] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like chicken breast, but it was all healthy schmelthy.

[00:05:20] [SPEAKER_03]: And I thought, okay, I think everybody is afraid in type to put what they really want.

[00:05:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I look like the only alcoholic in this email stream and me and Leanna, the oldest.

[00:05:30] [SPEAKER_03]: And I look like a crazy person.

[00:05:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And I said, I told dwarf, I go by the time I get down there backstage, if I don't make

[00:05:36] [SPEAKER_03]: it by six 15, if I get caught in traffic at six 30, I guarantee you my beer will already

[00:05:41] [SPEAKER_03]: be broken into.

[00:05:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Everyone's lying.

[00:05:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Everybody's lying.

[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_03]: And sure enough, I get there and there's three left.

[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, there's already three gone show.

[00:05:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Hasn't even started.

[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'll be, I don't care.

[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_03]: You guys get drew.

[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll go get more.

[00:05:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:05:53] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just that all of you are too chicken shit to just put it down in writing.

[00:05:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I like beer.

[00:05:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And I didn't even ask for wine because then they'll go get something weird and I don't,

[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I won't drink it anyway.

[00:06:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:06:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:06:04] [SPEAKER_03]: If anything, I just bring my own wine.

[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_03]: You do.

[00:06:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:06:06] B-Y-O-W.

[00:06:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:06:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Just, it's so much easier than going back and forth.

[00:06:10] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a runner.

[00:06:11] [SPEAKER_03]: They always call it a runner.

[00:06:12] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a child that has to go out and buy all this shit, you know?

[00:06:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And I don't want some 25 year old going in the wine store going, no, what's a Pinot

[00:06:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Noir.

[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Right?

[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_03]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

[00:06:23] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll just bring my own.

[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's so easy.

[00:06:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Anyway.

[00:06:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, what are we eating?

[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, before I get to Utah and all that, uh, what are we eating?

[00:06:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, this is interesting.

[00:06:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I love a Kit Kat.

[00:06:37] [SPEAKER_03]: They had a giant bowl of candy backstage last night too.

[00:06:39] [SPEAKER_03]: And I ate a lot of that.

[00:06:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, this is a chocolate frosted donut Kit Kat.

[00:06:45] [SPEAKER_04]: Who sent it?

[00:06:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, Mike, Michael from Pawnee, New York.

[00:06:50] Nice.

[00:06:53] Huh.

[00:06:54] [SPEAKER_04]: Good?

[00:06:57] [SPEAKER_03]: It is good.

[00:06:59] That took a while.

[00:07:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Well.

[00:07:01] Yeah.

[00:07:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And it does taste like a chocolate donut.

[00:07:03] Okay.

[00:07:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I think I prefer the other kind of Kit Kats if I had to choose.

[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Alright.

[00:07:07] [SPEAKER_03]: But if I didn't have a donut?

[00:07:09] Work in the Lord.

[00:07:10] [SPEAKER_03]: This works great.

[00:07:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, great.

[00:07:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Equal exchange.

[00:07:13] Yeah.

[00:07:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:07:14] [SPEAKER_04]: Good job, Michael.

[00:07:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:07:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Look at them thinking of more flavors.

[00:07:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Crispy wafer and donut flavored milk chocolate and cream.

[00:07:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Blah, blah.

[00:07:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I like it.

[00:07:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Cream, blah, blah.

[00:07:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Blah, blah.

[00:07:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Alright.

[00:07:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, so my friends Bob and Clark, research assistants, came to Utah for a little getaway.

[00:07:30] [SPEAKER_03]: And, um, I'll tell you where we went and everything.

[00:07:32] [SPEAKER_03]: But Clark found this Korean store in California that has these potato chips, but they're in like

[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_03]: crazy flavors.

[00:07:41] [SPEAKER_03]: He brought me like 10.

[00:07:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Again, this is Italian red meat flavor.

[00:07:45] Okay.

[00:07:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Huh.

[00:07:47] [SPEAKER_04]: Brace yourself.

[00:07:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[00:07:49] [SPEAKER_04]: Korean, Italian.

[00:07:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:07:52] Good?

[00:07:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Nice.

[00:07:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I said, what kind of stuff is this at Korean grocery store?

[00:07:59] [SPEAKER_03]: He said, no, it's like one of those box stores that there's only certain things you can get in there.

[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Like you can't go in there with the idea, I'm going to shop for what I want.

[00:08:06] [SPEAKER_03]: You're just going to take what they have.

[00:08:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's what's happening.

[00:08:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm.

[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_03]: These are really good.

[00:08:10] Wow, great.

[00:08:12] [SPEAKER_03]: A plus, plus, plus.

[00:08:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe we should get them in the States.

[00:08:16] [SPEAKER_03]: We should.

[00:08:16] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a hit.

[00:08:17] [SPEAKER_03]: This flavor's a hit.

[00:08:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Look at those Korean writing all over the bag.

[00:08:20] [SPEAKER_05]: I like it.

[00:08:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[00:08:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Sadly for them, the nutritional facts are the same.

[00:08:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Zero.

[00:08:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[00:08:30] [SPEAKER_04]: These are no nutritional facts.

[00:08:31] [SPEAKER_03]: These are really good.

[00:08:32] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm saving those.

[00:08:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, wow.

[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.

[00:08:35] [SPEAKER_03]: And then we're going to try some Korean peach Oreos.

[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think I'm going to go for this, but Clark, um, Clark and Bob.

[00:08:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, they're in tiny packs within a pack.

[00:08:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, shoot.

[00:08:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think I have any.

[00:08:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, I don't need scissors.

[00:08:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Peach.

[00:08:49] Oh, my God.

[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_02]: My dad would call this blasphemy.

[00:08:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, no.

[00:08:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Nope.

[00:08:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Terrible.

[00:08:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Even if you like peaches.

[00:08:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Nope.

[00:08:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Stick with the Italian red meat, ladies and potato chips.

[00:09:01] [SPEAKER_03]: These are terrible.

[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Bye-bye.

[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm glad he bought them, though.

[00:09:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Clark, love that, all the way from L.A. on a plane.

[00:09:07] [SPEAKER_03]: And then because of the altitude and everything, the bags expanded to it.

[00:09:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:09:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Last thing.

[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Then we're moving on.

[00:09:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Goldfish.

[00:09:15] [SPEAKER_03]: I love a goldfish.

[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, they make little crisp fish that are salt and vinegar.

[00:09:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Nice.

[00:09:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[00:09:21] [SPEAKER_04]: Who brought those?

[00:09:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Unknown Mormites.

[00:09:24] Mormites.

[00:09:25] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, the Mormons.

[00:09:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Mormon termites.

[00:09:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:09:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I met a couple backstage.

[00:09:31] [SPEAKER_03]: They're not Mormons anymore, though.

[00:09:32] Oh.

[00:09:32] [SPEAKER_03]: But they were raised in L.D.S.

[00:09:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not supposed to say Mormon.

[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Latter-day Saints.

[00:09:37] Yeah.

[00:09:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Latter-day Saints.

[00:09:38] Mm-hmm.

[00:09:38] [SPEAKER_03]: As compared to the early saints.

[00:09:40] Right.

[00:09:40] Yeah.

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Which I think the Catholics have claimed.

[00:09:43] Exactly.

[00:09:43] [SPEAKER_03]: All of them.

[00:09:44] [SPEAKER_03]: All of them.

[00:09:45] [SPEAKER_03]: All of them.

[00:09:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Because we decided who was and who wasn't.

[00:09:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:09:47] [SPEAKER_03]: We're still deciding.

[00:09:48] Yeah.

[00:09:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[00:09:49] [SPEAKER_03]: You'll never catch up.

[00:09:51] No.

[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Dear Christians, leave the saints to us.

[00:09:53] [SPEAKER_03]: We're good.

[00:09:53] [SPEAKER_03]: You will never catch up.

[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:09:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Light nary.

[00:10:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[00:10:01] [SPEAKER_04]: You feel that?

[00:10:03] [SPEAKER_04]: You like the Italian ones better.

[00:10:06] [SPEAKER_03]: These are pretty good.

[00:10:07] Okay.

[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_03]: But it would weird me out if I saw yellow ones and they're not orange.

[00:10:11] True.

[00:10:12] [SPEAKER_03]: They're okay.

[00:10:13] [SPEAKER_03]: But you spent your calories better on an actual salt and vinegar potato chip.

[00:10:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Good to know.

[00:10:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Not bad though.

[00:10:19] [SPEAKER_03]: If there was a bowl backstage and that's all there was, I'd eat it.

[00:10:22] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll put it that way.

[00:10:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Great.

[00:10:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, that gives it a B minus at least.

[00:10:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:10:26] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.

[00:10:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Where am I going?

[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_03]: This weekend, Spartanburg, South Carolina, Wilmington, North Carolina.

[00:10:33] Fun.

[00:10:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Then November 9th, Nashville, the Ryman where I just was last night but I couldn't put my

[00:10:37] [SPEAKER_03]: name on the poster because I have my real show and then you don't want, yeah.

[00:10:40] Yeah.

[00:10:41] [SPEAKER_04]: Sneaky.

[00:10:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Very sneaky.

[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[00:10:44] [SPEAKER_03]: November 15th and 16th, Boston.

[00:10:46] Fun.

[00:10:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Which by the way, if you didn't tape the two hour date line about the-

[00:10:53] [SPEAKER_05]: Karen Reed.

[00:10:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Karen Reed.

[00:10:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Karen Reed, the accidental murder or the real murder.

[00:10:58] Fantastic.

[00:10:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know but the accents in it, it's my favorite act.

[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_03]: It is the funniest accent.

[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Take a hard look at the evidence.

[00:11:07] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just so-

[00:11:09] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't see that coming out of this judge's mouth.

[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_03]: This is going to be had.

[00:11:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Please regroup.

[00:11:15] Had.

[00:11:16] Had.

[00:11:17] Had.

[00:11:17] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just the best.

[00:11:19] [SPEAKER_03]: So I'll be in Boston for two nights.

[00:11:21] [SPEAKER_03]: That's great.

[00:11:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Then El Cajon.

[00:11:25] Done.

[00:11:25] [SPEAKER_03]: That's almost sold out if it's not.

[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Riverside.

[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I need more Riverside ermites.

[00:11:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Inland Empire termites.

[00:11:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Ermites.

[00:11:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's get on it.

[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_03]: December 6th, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania.

[00:11:37] [SPEAKER_03]: And then the 7th, Ben Salem.

[00:11:39] [SPEAKER_03]: That's Parks Casino.

[00:11:40] [SPEAKER_03]: That's always a fun gig.

[00:11:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Fun.

[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_03]: So.

[00:11:45] [SPEAKER_02]: Did I forget it anyway?

[00:11:46] [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like I forgot.

[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Utah.

[00:11:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Never been to Park City.

[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Could not believe how awesome it was.

[00:11:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And their liquor laws seem to be.

[00:11:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, they're not normal there either.

[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I have an article about Utah liquor laws.

[00:12:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never been somewhere so confusing.

[00:12:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I guess if you're raised with these laws, you just go, oh, that's what it is.

[00:12:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, no, no, no termites.

[00:12:09] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not like that everywhere.

[00:12:10] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't have to live in this prison that you're in.

[00:12:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:12:13] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't have to live in a communist nation.

[00:12:15] [SPEAKER_03]: You can escape and come to freedom.

[00:12:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Just cross the line and get into Missouri or Tennessee.

[00:12:21] [SPEAKER_03]: But they confuse you.

[00:12:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I got caught with the drink in the room thing again where I went down to the bar

[00:12:28] [SPEAKER_03]: because I knew Bob and Clark were coming.

[00:12:29] [SPEAKER_03]: So I was going to order three drinks and then have it ready for them.

[00:12:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I ordered them and then she's like, you can't take them to the room.

[00:12:36] [SPEAKER_03]: You also can't order it in a restaurant without food.

[00:12:39] What?

[00:12:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:12:41] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they like vodka.

[00:12:43] [SPEAKER_03]: So I stopped at a state run liquor store because that's what, but they don't sell wine.

[00:12:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Now, sometimes that's at the grocery store and they sell high percentage beers, but not regular beer,

[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_03]: like low percentage, like a Miller Lite or Bud Light or a McDonald.

[00:12:55] [SPEAKER_03]: They don't have that.

[00:12:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Do you have to?

[00:12:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And then all these termites are trying to explain it all to me.

[00:13:00] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, in the Midwest, you can go in a gas station and buy whatever you need for the night.

[00:13:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Now the wine ain't going to be that good.

[00:13:08] [SPEAKER_03]: You'd probably be better going somewhere fancy.

[00:13:10] [SPEAKER_03]: But Park City was crazy nice.

[00:13:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's so much closer than the Colorado ski towns.

[00:13:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I'm not a skier.

[00:13:18] [SPEAKER_04]: I love Park City.

[00:13:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I would go in the off season and golf and hike and drink and drink.

[00:13:26] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a wonderful little Irish.

[00:13:28] [SPEAKER_03]: There's only one main street.

[00:13:29] [SPEAKER_03]: And I found two Banksy paintings.

[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_03]: What?

[00:13:32] [SPEAKER_03]: In Park City.

[00:13:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Ten years ago in 2010, Banksy went to the film festival.

[00:13:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Robert Redford's fancy Sundance.

[00:13:39] [SPEAKER_03]: That's where they have it.

[00:13:40] [SPEAKER_03]: And he busted out and painted two.

[00:13:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, he painted more than that, but a couple got destroyed.

[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_03]: But these have bulletproof glass in front of them.

[00:13:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Who would have thought?

[00:13:49] [SPEAKER_03]: I never thought I'd see a Banksy in my life unless I went to England.

[00:13:51] That's crazy.

[00:13:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:13:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Good for them.

[00:13:56] [SPEAKER_03]: And then down to Salt Lake, which the show was great.

[00:14:00] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, they were so excited.

[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Even Michael, the opener, Palisak, he's very funny.

[00:14:06] [SPEAKER_03]: He was like, wow, I wasn't expecting that.

[00:14:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I go, I know.

[00:14:09] [SPEAKER_03]: They're really excited that their little Catholic leprechaun has showed up.

[00:14:16] [SPEAKER_03]: That's fun.

[00:14:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:14:18] [SPEAKER_03]: So these are some of their liquor laws.

[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_03]: This was a dry campus, which I don't know.

[00:14:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And I go, why am I working there?

[00:14:27] [SPEAKER_03]: And they're like, that's where everybody goes, Kathleen.

[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, maybe everybody, whoever that includes.

[00:14:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Why don't we have a talk?

[00:14:33] [SPEAKER_03]: But it was wonderful.

[00:14:35] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's a beautiful theater and it wasn't that hard.

[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Usually sometimes a college campus, it's difficult to find the deal.

[00:14:41] [SPEAKER_03]: So it was easy peasy.

[00:14:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Many visitors come to Utah and ask, where can I get a drink around here?

[00:14:48] This is so weird.

[00:14:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Utahns, that's what they're called, Utahns.

[00:14:53] Utahns.

[00:14:53] [SPEAKER_03]: The Utahns.

[00:14:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Per capita consume 17.7 gallons of alcoholic beverages per year.

[00:15:00] [SPEAKER_03]: By the way, the new Utah NHL team was playing Boston.

[00:15:05] [SPEAKER_03]: So all the Basset folks are in town and they all got their Bruin stuff on.

[00:15:09] [SPEAKER_03]: And I thought, this city is going to blow their mind.

[00:15:12] [SPEAKER_03]: They're from a city from, you know, the 1500s.

[00:15:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:15:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And Salt Lake City looks brand spanking new.

[00:15:18] [SPEAKER_03]: And driving around, I'm like, you know, you want your city to be clean.

[00:15:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:15:22] [SPEAKER_03]: But this is a little too clean.

[00:15:24] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a little creepy.

[00:15:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Like what's really going on here?

[00:15:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure the Boston people, it probably looked like an Ikea pop-up city to them because there's no, I mean the Mormon temple, but that's under construction.

[00:15:35] [SPEAKER_03]: FYI, if you were ever thinking about doing that, not don't go until 2026.

[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_03]: You can't get near it.

[00:15:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Nope.

[00:15:41] [SPEAKER_03]: There's so much construction, re whatever, fixing stuff.

[00:15:47] [SPEAKER_03]: So the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverages Service, which operates 50 state run liquor stores, overseas licenses of different sorts for blah, blah, blah.

[00:15:56] [SPEAKER_03]: So somebody is definitely drinking around here.

[00:15:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Grocery stores and convenience stores can sell their beer with 5% alcohol by volume or less seven days a week.

[00:16:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Strong beers are only available to state.

[00:16:09] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's what I'm saying.

[00:16:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Like the IPAs and stuff are available at that state run.

[00:16:12] [SPEAKER_03]: But I'm like, where's your McUltra?

[00:16:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, we don't sell that here.

[00:16:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:16:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Can we just say you get beer or wine?

[00:16:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:16:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, okay.

[00:16:20] [SPEAKER_03]: So I'm gonna have to stop three times, three times before I go up that mountain to make sure I got what I need.

[00:16:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Stronger beers are available only at the state run liquor stores.

[00:16:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Find the eight out of 51 that have refrigeration cases.

[00:16:37] [SPEAKER_03]: So they're not selling cold beer either.

[00:16:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Only eight.

[00:16:39] Oh my God.

[00:16:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:16:40] [SPEAKER_03]: The others you're getting.

[00:16:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Or you could go to a brew pub where they make beer themselves.

[00:16:46] Okay.

[00:16:47] Okay.

[00:16:48] No.

[00:16:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Grocery stores can't sell wine.

[00:16:50] [SPEAKER_03]: That's why Trader Joe's didn't expand until Utah until 2013.

[00:16:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Spirits.

[00:16:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Could we stop using the word spirits?

[00:16:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Spirits.

[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_03]: A.K.A.

[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_03]: the hard stuff.

[00:16:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Can be bought at bars and some restaurants or a state run liquor store.

[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_03]: However, you can only buy a drink in a restaurant if you order food as well.

[00:17:06] I think that's crazy.

[00:17:07] [SPEAKER_03]: It could just be an appetizer, but the food is a requirement.

[00:17:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, there's the other thing.

[00:17:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Like Bob and Clark drink real drinks like martinis.

[00:17:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I just drink beer wine mostly.

[00:17:20] [SPEAKER_03]: They measure out your shot.

[00:17:24] [SPEAKER_03]: So let's say like I did order a Tito's Cosmo, but that's got other stuff in it.

[00:17:29] [SPEAKER_03]: So my drink looked normal sized because they only get the shot.

[00:17:33] [SPEAKER_03]: They come in tiny glasses.

[00:17:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Tiny, tiny, tiny martinis.

[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_00]: That's a shot of martini.

[00:17:39] [SPEAKER_03]: The bartender will meter out exactly 1.5 ounces of the liquor and then add liquors.

[00:17:45] [SPEAKER_03]: But if you don't add, your drink is like this.

[00:17:48] [SPEAKER_03]: It cannot exceed 2.5 ounces.

[00:17:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, old timers in Utah.

[00:17:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Remember when the metered pour was only one ounce and the bartenders would serve sidecars.

[00:18:00] [SPEAKER_03]: A second shot.

[00:18:01] Old timers.

[00:18:02] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what they wrote.

[00:18:05] [SPEAKER_03]: In the old days, they had the mini bottles like South Carolina, I believe, still has in some bars.

[00:18:11] [SPEAKER_03]: The state has outlawed mini bottles for general sale.

[00:18:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, just get on a plane.

[00:18:15] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll get you all you need.

[00:18:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, oh my God.

[00:18:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Before 2017, Utah law required restaurants to erect physical barriers between diners and the areas where the drinks are prepared.

[00:18:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Somebody told me about that.

[00:18:33] [SPEAKER_03]: They had to hide behind a wall.

[00:18:39] [SPEAKER_03]: The state religion.

[00:18:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Separate, separate, separate, separate.

[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's separate.

[00:18:44] [SPEAKER_03]: No, what are we doing?

[00:18:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It was just in 2013.

[00:18:53] [SPEAKER_03]: No, in 2023.

[00:18:55] [SPEAKER_03]: They made it legal for restaurants to let customers carry their own drinks from the bar to the dining area.

[00:19:01] [SPEAKER_03]: So let's say.

[00:19:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's say you're waiting on your table and you're in the fun bar and you have a drink and then they go, oh, your table's ready.

[00:19:09] [SPEAKER_03]: And your thing goes off.

[00:19:10] [SPEAKER_03]: You have to slam it or leave it and hope for your butler to come.

[00:19:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Who's going to come get it?

[00:19:16] [SPEAKER_03]: I already got it from the bartender.

[00:19:18] [SPEAKER_03]: He, she can't leave the bar.

[00:19:20] [SPEAKER_03]: This is so great.

[00:19:21] [SPEAKER_03]: What do they think is going to fucking happen?

[00:19:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Look at Kathleen.

[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Look at Kathleen.

[00:19:26] [SPEAKER_03]: She's walking her beer into the restaurant.

[00:19:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Shit's going to go down.

[00:19:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:19:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Homebrewing is legal.

[00:19:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, try to stop us.

[00:19:37] [SPEAKER_03]: What's in your bathtub?

[00:19:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Nothing.

[00:19:42] Homebrewing.

[00:19:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it's also legal to carry a case of alcohol, but no more than that, to your house from out of state, but only if it's for personal consumption.

[00:19:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Joining a wine club and having wine shipped directly is a felony.

[00:20:02] [SPEAKER_03]: You've set up such strict liquor laws.

[00:20:05] [SPEAKER_03]: You think we're just going to have our own black market?

[00:20:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Why did you do that?

[00:20:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Why are you forcing me into a life of crime?

[00:20:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Why are you doing that?

[00:20:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Can't you just account for, yes, there's still a ton of Mormons in Utah, but there's a lot of non-Mormons and we would just like to live freely in a beautiful state.

[00:20:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's absolutely beautiful.

[00:20:27] [SPEAKER_03]: That's really true.

[00:20:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I just, I get to states like that and I'm like, oh my God.

[00:20:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Moving on.

[00:20:34] [SPEAKER_03]: We're moving on.

[00:20:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I had a great time though and I want to go back.

[00:20:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I'd like to do two shows and spend a Friday, Saturday.

[00:20:39] Okay.

[00:20:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:20:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Note to Utahians, Utahns, Utahns, Utahns, Utahns.

[00:20:47] [SPEAKER_03]: So much queen dance.

[00:20:48] [SPEAKER_01]: What else did you do in Park City?

[00:20:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Park City?

[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I drank.

[00:20:53] [SPEAKER_01]: You saw Banksy's?

[00:20:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:20:55] [SPEAKER_03]: What else did you do?

[00:20:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if I did anything.

[00:20:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I did my Utah liquor laws.

[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Hold on.

[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I wrote it down.

[00:21:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Nothing.

[00:21:02] [SPEAKER_01]: So you liked it?

[00:21:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, Park City.

[00:21:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:21:05] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like a ski town and I love being in a ski town where I don't ski.

[00:21:09] Right.

[00:21:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I don't feel possessed.

[00:21:11] Okay.

[00:21:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Because then I get obsessed and possessed if it's where I want to be, like, then I'd be

[00:21:15] [SPEAKER_03]: all like, all about that.

[00:21:17] That's cool.

[00:21:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:21:19] [SPEAKER_03]: There was a fun Irish bar, Flanagan's, right on the main drag.

[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And then my sister-in-law, Amy, told me to go in this knife store, like kitchen knives,

[00:21:30] [SPEAKER_03]: which I don't.

[00:21:31] Cook.

[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, whatever.

[00:21:32] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't cook.

[00:21:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't cook.

[00:21:34] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know anything about knives.

[00:21:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I thought they just gave you a free pair of scissors in those blocks and I was using

[00:21:39] [SPEAKER_03]: it to open boxes from Amazon.

[00:21:41] Oh, my God.

[00:21:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:21:42] [SPEAKER_03]: And she was like, those, Kathleen, those are for, I'm like, wow, here's the thing.

[00:21:48] [SPEAKER_03]: They weren't great as scissors.

[00:21:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Why would I ever cut meat?

[00:21:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't, yeah, I don't go.

[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_03]: But the knife store was very fancy.

[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, I didn't buy the knives there.

[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll get them online.

[00:22:00] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:22:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Or more or less, I'll go get to the outlet mall and find a Wusthof outlet.

[00:22:05] [SPEAKER_03]: The outlet mall.

[00:22:06] [SPEAKER_05]: Mm-hmm.

[00:22:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_03]: We had one in the Ozarks.

[00:22:09] [SPEAKER_03]: It closed.

[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Very sad.

[00:22:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Queen news.

[00:22:14] Jesus.

[00:22:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, my God.

[00:22:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Chapel's been quiet this week.

[00:22:18] Yes.

[00:22:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:22:19] [SPEAKER_03]: It just simmered down.

[00:22:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Be quiet.

[00:22:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Cher was everywhere.

[00:22:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, before I get to Cher, I should save that because I need to talk about the Rock and

[00:22:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Roll Hall of Fame.

[00:22:27] [SPEAKER_03]: So we'll do that one last.

[00:22:28] Okay.

[00:22:29] [SPEAKER_02]: Jelly Roll was there too.

[00:22:30] Okay.

[00:22:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Tom Brady.

[00:22:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Where's Tommy?

[00:22:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Right there.

[00:22:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Tay Tay did her show in Miami and Tommy was there.

[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_03]: A king and a queen.

[00:22:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he brought his kids.

[00:22:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[00:22:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:22:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, my friend was going to one of the Miami shows.

[00:22:45] [SPEAKER_03]: I guess it was supposed to, it rained and stuff.

[00:22:47] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't see the clips online.

[00:22:48] [SPEAKER_03]: I think Tay Tay's tour has gone on too long.

[00:22:51] I don't.

[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I do.

[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I think it should keep going.

[00:22:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I think they booked it.

[00:22:54] [SPEAKER_03]: This is insane.

[00:22:55] [SPEAKER_03]: This is crazy.

[00:22:56] [SPEAKER_03]: This woman is still out here doing this.

[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I cannot get my head around it.

[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_03]: I haven't seen her for a year.

[00:23:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Time to go back.

[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I want to go back.

[00:23:05] [SPEAKER_03]: When does she get time off?

[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_03]: This is crazy.

[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_03]: She's doing four hours a night.

[00:23:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Jesus Christ.

[00:23:09] She's having fun.

[00:23:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, but Tommy Salami, so, um, he bought into the Raiders.

[00:23:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_03]: He is now an NFL owner.

[00:23:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh huh.

[00:23:19] [SPEAKER_03]: They approved it.

[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, he's a part owner.

[00:23:22] [SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't say how much he gave.

[00:23:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Nobody knows that amount.

[00:23:26] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure.

[00:23:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Good deal.

[00:23:27] [SPEAKER_03]: But here's the problem.

[00:23:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Tommy is an announcer.

[00:23:33] He is.

[00:23:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, Tom Brady's NFL restriction as a Raiders co-owner make it impossible for him to be a

[00:23:40] [SPEAKER_03]: successful broadcaster.

[00:23:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Now, I watched the game he broadcast this past Sunday.

[00:23:45] [SPEAKER_03]: I think he did Chiefs 49ers if I'm not mistaken.

[00:23:48] He did.

[00:23:48] [SPEAKER_03]: He needs to calm down.

[00:23:50] What?

[00:23:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I love Tommy.

[00:23:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, thank you.

[00:23:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, this is a new gig for him.

[00:23:54] Uh huh.

[00:23:55] [SPEAKER_03]: He, he has so much information flying out of his mouth so quickly that it's getting lost.

[00:24:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, I want to tell him, calm down.

[00:24:04] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't have to say something every minute.

[00:24:06] Uh huh.

[00:24:06] [SPEAKER_03]: But other than that, I like it.

[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I think he's, he's got good stuff to say.

[00:24:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:24:11] [SPEAKER_03]: He's just nervous, I think.

[00:24:13] [SPEAKER_03]: I think he's too hyper.

[00:24:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, let's just bring this down.

[00:24:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Calm down.

[00:24:18] [SPEAKER_03]: He probably does want to go play and he should go play.

[00:24:20] [SPEAKER_03]: He should go play.

[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Everyone's hurt.

[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:24:22] [SPEAKER_03]: And my fantasy team took a hit and I dropped from first to third.

[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh no.

[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh!

[00:24:27] [SPEAKER_03]: So many injuries.

[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I wake up on Tuesday and I think, oh shit, I gotta go get all these people.

[00:24:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I always think, what if this was real?

[00:24:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:24:34] [SPEAKER_03]: What if I'm Andy Reid?

[00:24:35] [SPEAKER_03]: And I wake up and go, what?

[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_03]: What happened to so and so?

[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Shit.

[00:24:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, now what?

[00:24:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Aaron Rodgers, by the way, completely ate shit again.

[00:24:46] [SPEAKER_03]: And I have two joys in Sunday football.

[00:24:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Watching the Cowboys eat shit while Jerry Jones is sitting there and it's his birthday.

[00:24:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it can't get any better than that.

[00:24:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And watching Aaron Jones, who blames everybody.

[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Aaron Rodgers.

[00:24:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Aaron Rodgers.

[00:25:00] [SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, Aaron Jones is actually really good.

[00:25:01] [SPEAKER_03]: He's running back.

[00:25:02] Yeah.

[00:25:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I had him a couple seasons.

[00:25:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I wish I could get him again.

[00:25:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Aaron Rodgers, here's the problem.

[00:25:08] [SPEAKER_03]: All owners wake up.

[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_03]: If you're gonna hire the old guy, the 40 something, and then he's gonna start making demands.

[00:25:14] [SPEAKER_03]: So he makes it his little team.

[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And he wants all of his whoobies back from Green Bay.

[00:25:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, here's Alan Lazard.

[00:25:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's Devontae.

[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Devontae quit the Raiders.

[00:25:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And you're trying to recreate something that existed years ago and it can't be recreated.

[00:25:30] When you were young.

[00:25:30] [SPEAKER_03]: When you were a young man and you used to be able to run.

[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Remember that, Aaron?

[00:25:33] [SPEAKER_03]: You could run when you got the ball and you feared for your life.

[00:25:36] [SPEAKER_03]: You could run.

[00:25:37] [SPEAKER_03]: And those things aren't really working so much.

[00:25:40] [SPEAKER_03]: They've made a terrible error.

[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_03]: And then, okay, give the king everything he wants.

[00:25:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's the problem.

[00:25:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Even if you do that, it doesn't work.

[00:25:48] [SPEAKER_03]: It's never worked.

[00:25:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Now the young kids are like, he didn't even show up to minicamp.

[00:25:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, how do you respect that guy?

[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_03]: It was a wonderful Sunday.

[00:26:00] [SPEAKER_03]: When Fox hired Tom Brady to be the lead NFL analyst and the move made sense,

[00:26:04] [SPEAKER_03]: even if it meant demoting a great talent like Greg Olson.

[00:26:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I liked Greg a lot.

[00:26:09] [SPEAKER_03]: He was good.

[00:26:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Brady is the best quarterback to ever play and having recently retired,

[00:26:14] [SPEAKER_03]: he'd theoretically bring enormous familiarity and expertise.

[00:26:17] [SPEAKER_03]: This hasn't actually played out that well in the first few weeks,

[00:26:22] [SPEAKER_03]: and it's only certainly to get worse.

[00:26:24] [SPEAKER_03]: He's no longer allowed to be honest with his audience.

[00:26:27] [SPEAKER_03]: On Tuesday they approved it, but here's some rules he can't do anymore.

[00:26:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's see if I got to it.

[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_03]: He won't be allowed, according to ESPN, because he's an owner of a team,

[00:26:41] [SPEAKER_03]: he will not be allowed in non-Raiders facilities besides the stadiums.

[00:26:46] Okay.

[00:26:48] [SPEAKER_03]: So he can't watch practices.

[00:26:49] Okay.

[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_03]: He can't attend broadcasting production meetings in any capacity.

[00:26:54] Oh my God.

[00:26:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:26:55] He's going to be terrible at this.

[00:26:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Which is a massive restriction on an announcer,

[00:26:59] [SPEAKER_03]: as those meetings are used to craft talking points and insight

[00:27:02] [SPEAKER_03]: to carry a broadcast for three plus hours.

[00:27:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:27:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:27:05] [SPEAKER_03]: So I became friends with Greg Gumbel,

[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_03]: and he would tell me what they had to do before a game.

[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_03]: I just didn't have any idea there was that much work put involved.

[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And your friend Ken.

[00:27:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And my friend Ken.

[00:27:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of work.

[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_03]: He also can't criticize game officials or other teams.

[00:27:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, this is a, how did this get allowed with the gig?

[00:27:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:27:25] [SPEAKER_03]: You either take the job or take this, but this is crazy.

[00:27:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:27:28] [SPEAKER_04]: He used the money from Fox to pay for this.

[00:27:31] [SPEAKER_03]: He potentially would have to watch game changing missed calls and either stay quiet

[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_03]: or blame, defect blame away from the refs.

[00:27:39] This is a nightmare.

[00:27:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:27:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Aaron said that the young people in the locker room should quit listening to the media.

[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_03]: He blamed the media out of the game or at least put some sort of onus on them.

[00:27:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Aaron, you're the leader.

[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_03]: If they're listening to the media over you, that's your fault.

[00:27:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.

[00:27:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Not their fault.

[00:27:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I don't know.

[00:27:59] [SPEAKER_03]: He's getting $375 million over a decade to do this.

[00:28:03] [SPEAKER_03]: And now you took this gig and you can't be in a production meeting.

[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, good for God.

[00:28:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Good for Tom.

[00:28:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:28:08] [SPEAKER_03]: If you can work that out.

[00:28:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, great.

[00:28:10] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't have to be in production meetings.

[00:28:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Fantastic.

[00:28:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Snoop Dogg, is he still out?

[00:28:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:28:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Snoop is going to, um, do a biopic and he's looking for a young actor to play him.

[00:28:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[00:28:22] [SPEAKER_03]: So if you look or think you're an actor that can pull off Snoop, um, he wants somebody

[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_03]: to embody the spirit when I was young, rough around the edges, trying to discover who I

[00:28:30] [SPEAKER_03]: was.

[00:28:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And that to me is going to be a phenomenal actor.

[00:28:33] I like it.

[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_03]: There you go.

[00:28:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Turbites.

[00:28:35] [SPEAKER_03]: You got any Snoops out there?

[00:28:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:28:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's talk about, cause this involves a king and a queen.

[00:28:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:28:41] [SPEAKER_03]: The rock and roll hall of fame show.

[00:28:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Now it's on Disney plus, which I still had to download again.

[00:28:47] Yeah.

[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And I don't, I don't have kids.

[00:28:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want Disney plus, but whatever.

[00:28:55] [SPEAKER_03]: I wanted to see it.

[00:28:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, and it word up.

[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_03]: It's five and a half hours long.

[00:29:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, Julia Roberts.

[00:29:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I'll get to that.

[00:29:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:29:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Just stop.

[00:29:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't give actors a microphone without a script.

[00:29:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:29:09] [SPEAKER_03]: That's always been my little theory on that.

[00:29:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, five and a half hours, but you can fast forward through the parts that you don't care

[00:29:16] [SPEAKER_03]: about.

[00:29:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:29:17] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's definitely worth it.

[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_03]: However, the sound was horrible for everyone involved.

[00:29:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Jelly roll, my king jelly, so Ozzy Osbourne was getting put in as Ozzy as compared to being

[00:29:31] [SPEAKER_03]: in the band.

[00:29:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And he sang my mom coming home.

[00:29:33] [SPEAKER_05]: Mm-hmm.

[00:29:34] [SPEAKER_03]: And I love that song.

[00:29:35] [SPEAKER_03]: But there were some off key moments that were pretty glaring.

[00:29:39] Mm-hmm.

[00:29:39] [SPEAKER_03]: But then Cher sang with Dua Lipa and then by herself.

[00:29:43] [SPEAKER_03]: And there were off key moments there too.

[00:29:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:29:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And even when they got up to present or say something about somebody, they had to lean

[00:29:51] [SPEAKER_03]: in to the mic, bend down.

[00:29:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they're all like, can you guys hear me?

[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_03]: They could not hear themselves.

[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[00:29:56] Wow.

[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_03]: The band, but somebody put on, um, something online.

[00:30:01] [SPEAKER_03]: This is the thing.

[00:30:02] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I remembered it last year.

[00:30:03] [SPEAKER_03]: It was horrible too.

[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like the house band is not on key and they're louder and the house bands made up of

[00:30:10] [SPEAKER_03]: famous people, but maybe they don't always play with those other people.

[00:30:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:30:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And so Jelly Roll got so upset because he got, I guess, a lot of bad comments.

[00:30:19] [SPEAKER_03]: He wrote on Twitter, X, whatever.

[00:30:23] [SPEAKER_03]: This is for sure the most toxic negative app to exist ever.

[00:30:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Period.

[00:30:29] [SPEAKER_03]: This place is different, man.

[00:30:30] [SPEAKER_03]: I always heard it was a Wild West on here, but man, it's insane.

[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a safe place for everyone to say mean shit to each other with no consequences.

[00:30:38] [SPEAKER_04]: Right.

[00:30:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Please refer to my joke of 10 years ago.

[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah, Twitter could be, you know, if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

[00:30:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:30:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And I mean, I agree.

[00:30:49] [SPEAKER_03]: It's gotten a lot worse.

[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It's way worse.

[00:30:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, it's toxic, but I stay on it cause other people are on it that I like.

[00:30:56] Right.

[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I don't want to give in to Elon.

[00:30:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm in an Irish standoff with him and he doesn't know it, but I am.

[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Cher's performance.

[00:31:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I thought by far was the best.

[00:31:10] [SPEAKER_03]: She's amazing.

[00:31:11] [SPEAKER_03]: It's amazing.

[00:31:12] [SPEAKER_03]: How old is she?

[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_03]: 78.

[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_03]: That's crazy.

[00:31:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I Googled it.

[00:31:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And she came out and looked great.

[00:31:17] [SPEAKER_03]: And if I could turn my time.

[00:31:19] [SPEAKER_03]: There's just no way you can't like Cher.

[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:31:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, some other inductees that were, I really can't remember who else was out there.

[00:31:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Dave Matthews and they led Julia Roberts do the intro.

[00:31:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Holy shit.

[00:31:32] [SPEAKER_03]: It goes on for like 12 to 15 minutes of how much she has a Dave shirt on.

[00:31:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:31:39] [SPEAKER_03]: I get it.

[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_03]: I get it.

[00:31:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah, Mary J.

[00:31:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Blige's was great.

[00:31:44] [SPEAKER_03]: And Mary J.

[00:31:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Blige killed it.

[00:31:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, again, though, there were sound issues.

[00:31:49] [SPEAKER_03]: I cannot, the ultimate irony that this is the rock and roll hall of fame of all the

[00:31:55] [SPEAKER_03]: people in the world that should get the sound right.

[00:31:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:31:57] [SPEAKER_03]: You guys should.

[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.

[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's not right.

[00:31:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Who else?

[00:32:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Cause I watched most of it.

[00:32:01] [SPEAKER_04]: Foreigner.

[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Foreigner.

[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I never, I never liked Foreigner.

[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_03]: People get really, I know the guy's got a great voice.

[00:32:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I get it.

[00:32:09] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just like, I want to know what love it is.

[00:32:12] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't like the, I don't know, but they deserved it.

[00:32:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, cool and the gang deserved it.

[00:32:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh huh.

[00:32:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Tribe Called Quest.

[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Tribe Called Quest deserved it.

[00:32:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Ozzy Osbourne.

[00:32:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Ozzy's the best.

[00:32:22] [SPEAKER_03]: So great.

[00:32:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:32:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:32:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Mama, I'm coming home.

[00:32:26] [SPEAKER_03]: So great.

[00:32:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Some, the guy, lead singer from Tool sang Crazy Train.

[00:32:30] [SPEAKER_03]: That's great.

[00:32:30] [SPEAKER_03]: That was good.

[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know how he overcame all the sound issues that everybody else clearly could

[00:32:36] [SPEAKER_03]: not.

[00:32:36] [SPEAKER_03]: He became the sound.

[00:32:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Was there somebody else?

[00:32:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Peter Frampton.

[00:32:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, Peter Frampton.

[00:32:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:32:41] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's like a very nice man on social media.

[00:32:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never met the man, but very likable.

[00:32:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't follow him.

[00:32:46] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't follow Peter Frampton?

[00:32:48] [SPEAKER_03]: No, I don't.

[00:32:49] I will.

[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Moving on.

[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Update.

[00:32:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Update.

[00:32:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:32:56] [SPEAKER_03]: So the sphere in Las Vegas, me and my friend Laureen call that our leader because I wait

[00:33:01] [SPEAKER_03]: for it to do things when the children are programming.

[00:33:04] [SPEAKER_03]: What's it going to be today?

[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I get all excited.

[00:33:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Last week it was a giant pumpkin.

[00:33:07] [SPEAKER_03]: It was perfect.

[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that's fun.

[00:33:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:33:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, the world is getting a second one.

[00:33:13] [SPEAKER_03]: We're getting a second sphere.

[00:33:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[00:33:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:33:16] [SPEAKER_03]: The massive $2.3 billion Vegas one opened in 2023 as the gambling capital's most expensive

[00:33:22] [SPEAKER_03]: entertainment venue.

[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_03]: The high resolution screens, blah, blah, blah.

[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_03]: That place holds 17,500.

[00:33:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Does it really?

[00:33:29] [SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm.

[00:33:33] [SPEAKER_03]: So the other one will be built in the United Arab Emirates, which means I will most likely

[00:33:38] [SPEAKER_03]: never see it.

[00:33:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh.

[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Dubai's cool.

[00:33:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going to Dubai.

[00:33:42] I've been there.

[00:33:43] [SPEAKER_01]: It's great.

[00:33:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it, Pedals.

[00:33:48] [SPEAKER_03]: There's too many other things I need to do before I'm dead.

[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:33:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Dubai's not on there.

[00:33:51] [SPEAKER_04]: No, it's not on your list?

[00:33:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Not at all.

[00:33:54] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:33:54] [SPEAKER_03]: It seems like a jacked up Miami.

[00:33:59] [SPEAKER_03]: It's the world's beautiful people.

[00:34:01] It is.

[00:34:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to meet the world's beautiful people.

[00:34:03] [SPEAKER_03]: In the middle of an ashtray.

[00:34:04] [SPEAKER_03]: In the, yeah, the sand.

[00:34:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't do well in a desert.

[00:34:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll have a headache the whole time.

[00:34:09] [SPEAKER_03]: You will.

[00:34:09] It'll be bad.

[00:34:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:34:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I'll be wondering, as a woman, can I go do this by myself?

[00:34:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Or am I going to get in trouble?

[00:34:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Some bullshit, a ticket.

[00:34:16] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want, yeah, I don't know.

[00:34:19] [SPEAKER_03]: They're going to bring a sphere to Abu Dhabi.

[00:34:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[00:34:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:34:23] [SPEAKER_03]: It didn't say where it would be built in the capital.

[00:34:27] [SPEAKER_03]: They just did not, it's immediate, they're not responding to questions.

[00:34:30] [SPEAKER_03]: See, we're.

[00:34:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Not in Dubai.

[00:34:32] Abu Dhabi.

[00:34:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, it says, um, United Arab Emirates and then built in the Amerity capital.

[00:34:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Abu Dhabi's Department of Culture and Tourism announced it.

[00:34:47] Okay.

[00:34:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Doesn't mean it's, yeah.

[00:34:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:34:49] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't read that right.

[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Abu Dhabi's been trying to differentiate itself as a travel destination from neighboring

[00:34:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Dubai.

[00:34:57] [SPEAKER_03]: So maybe it is going to Abu Dhabi.

[00:34:58] Mm-hmm.

[00:34:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know why every time I say Abu Dhabi I sound like a Flintstone to myself.

[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_01]: But I do.

[00:35:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Like Yabba Dhabba.

[00:35:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't, no, I don't need to go to this.

[00:35:08] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:35:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Um.

[00:35:09] [SPEAKER_03]: You don't.

[00:35:10] [SPEAKER_03]: No, but if you're over there for work or something.

[00:35:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:35:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Just know there's another one coming.

[00:35:15] It's great.

[00:35:16] [SPEAKER_03]: It's exciting.

[00:35:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Update.

[00:35:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:35:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Clark was so excited when I told him this.

[00:35:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Bed Bath and Beyond.

[00:35:23] [SPEAKER_05]: I suck.

[00:35:23] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm so fascinated with the whole life cycle of Bed Bath and Beyond.

[00:35:27] [SPEAKER_03]: It's crazy.

[00:35:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:35:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, they're returning to brick and mortar stores inside a rival store.

[00:35:34] [SPEAKER_03]: What?

[00:35:37] [SPEAKER_03]: What?

[00:35:37] [SPEAKER_03]: They're going to be inside the container store.

[00:35:40] Stop it.

[00:35:40] Yeah.

[00:35:41] Oh my God.

[00:35:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's the thing about the container store.

[00:35:43] [SPEAKER_03]: To me, I've gone in and there's, you know, usually on the road like, huh, I should

[00:35:49] [SPEAKER_03]: go in there.

[00:35:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Like a long time ago.

[00:35:51] [SPEAKER_03]: And I see the cool stuff and I bought what I liked, but now I have my container.

[00:35:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know why I would go back.

[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_05]: No.

[00:35:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, I don't, why would I throw out what I bought that I liked to go get another container?

[00:36:03] [SPEAKER_03]: At some point you should have enough containers.

[00:36:05] You should.

[00:36:06] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not a thing that keeps on going.

[00:36:08] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like Tupperware.

[00:36:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:36:09] [SPEAKER_03]: You get your amount of Tupperware and you're good.

[00:36:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you're good.

[00:36:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Bed Bath and Beyond is coming to a physical store near year after going out of business

[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_03]: last year.

[00:36:16] [SPEAKER_03]: But this time it's taking up space at a rival.

[00:36:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Beyond Ink, which bought the defunct retailer out of bankruptcy, bought, no, bought him

[00:36:24] [SPEAKER_03]: out of bankruptcy is investing 40 million in the container store and giving the home goods

[00:36:29] [SPEAKER_03]: and former competitor a much needed lifeline as it struggles with its own financial issues.

[00:36:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:36:36] Right.

[00:36:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Because you're selling what is a finite amount of things.

[00:36:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:36:40] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:36:41] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like Sandy, you have your forks.

[00:36:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:36:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I have forks.

[00:36:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't need more forks.

[00:36:49] [SPEAKER_03]: As part of the investment, Bed Bath and Beyond branded kitchen, bath and bedroom products

[00:36:53] [SPEAKER_03]: will be sold at the container store.

[00:36:55] [SPEAKER_03]: It's 102 locations.

[00:36:56] [SPEAKER_03]: The partnership aims to improve customer experience, both utilizing utilizing both the icon Bed Bath

[00:37:02] [SPEAKER_03]: and Beyond and container store names.

[00:37:04] [SPEAKER_03]: A press release said which are two of the most recognizable names that have fallen into a

[00:37:08] [SPEAKER_03]: financial mess.

[00:37:09] [SPEAKER_03]: So you know what?

[00:37:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's take two homeless people shopping carts and put them together.

[00:37:15] [SPEAKER_03]: There we go.

[00:37:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Now we got a big giant giant shopping cart full of junk.

[00:37:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:37:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, uh, uh, just see if there's anything else in here.

[00:37:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, no.

[00:37:30] [SPEAKER_03]: So if you like the Bed Bath and Beyond products, I don't think this is the answer.

[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Once again, put a bar in there.

[00:37:38] [SPEAKER_03]: That's always my fallback plan.

[00:37:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.

[00:37:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's go have a drink at the container store.

[00:37:42] [SPEAKER_03]: And then maybe I'll go, you know what?

[00:37:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I could use one more plastic giddy up thing there.

[00:37:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, maybe, maybe.

[00:37:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, there's a lot of big.

[00:37:53] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what's going on in business news this week, but it's all very real and

[00:37:56] [SPEAKER_03]: it matters to normal people.

[00:37:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Excellent.

[00:37:58] [SPEAKER_03]: But wait a second.

[00:37:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I have to back up.

[00:37:59] Okay.

[00:38:01] [SPEAKER_03]: After the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

[00:38:02] Okay.

[00:38:03] [SPEAKER_03]: I need to talk about two things that I watched.

[00:38:05] Uh huh.

[00:38:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I watched the Academy of Lies.

[00:38:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I think it was on Hulu.

[00:38:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Can you Google that?

[00:38:12] Anatomy of Lies.

[00:38:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Anatomy of Lies.

[00:38:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Academy.

[00:38:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Anatomy of Lies.

[00:38:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Anatomy.

[00:38:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Sorry.

[00:38:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Anatomy.

[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, this is about a complete full blown sociopath who lied about the amount of things this

[00:38:29] [SPEAKER_03]: person lied about.

[00:38:30] [SPEAKER_03]: It's on Peacock.

[00:38:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it was on Peacock.

[00:38:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:38:33] [SPEAKER_04]: It was done by Vanity Fair.

[00:38:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, the Vanity Fair article too is what exposed.

[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_03]: She was the head writer for Grey's Anatomy.

[00:38:42] [SPEAKER_03]: And everything this lady says is a lie.

[00:38:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And then she gets involved with this other lady.

[00:38:47] [SPEAKER_03]: And that's all a lie.

[00:38:49] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's just one of the craziest things.

[00:38:52] [SPEAKER_03]: In a relationship with that lady.

[00:38:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:38:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And her kids and, but it was the lying that nobody in the office ever went.

[00:38:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I forget what her name was.

[00:39:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Elizabeth.

[00:39:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I think.

[00:39:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, isn't it weird?

[00:39:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:39:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, the thing that all these tragic things, every time there's a tragedy, somehow Elizabeth

[00:39:09] [SPEAKER_03]: is personally connected.

[00:39:10] [SPEAKER_03]: The, the Jewish temple in Pittsburgh that got bombed.

[00:39:15] Finchie.

[00:39:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Finchie.

[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:39:17] She goes by Finchie.

[00:39:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, she said that she had to fly there to help clean up bodies in the temple.

[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_03]: First of all, that would never be allowed.

[00:39:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I can't believe nobody at Grey's Anatomy, or maybe they did whenever there's a, you know,

[00:39:31] [SPEAKER_03]: a rumor going around the office, but nobody has the power to call her out on it.

[00:39:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and she didn't really commit a crime.

[00:39:38] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just like a crazy.

[00:39:40] She did commit crimes.

[00:39:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, she committed.

[00:39:43] [SPEAKER_03]: No, she didn't commit crimes.

[00:39:45] [SPEAKER_03]: She met things.

[00:39:46] [SPEAKER_03]: She committed, did things you could get fired for.

[00:39:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:39:49] [SPEAKER_03]: But is it a crime to just keep lying your ass off about enormous tragedies?

[00:39:53] [SPEAKER_03]: She's a sociopath.

[00:39:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I don't know if she's diagnosed as a sociopath, but it is definitely a sociopathic

[00:40:01] [SPEAKER_03]: behavior.

[00:40:01] I'm diagnosed here.

[00:40:02] [SPEAKER_03]: You're diagnosed.

[00:40:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:40:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Paddles has diagnosed Finchie.

[00:40:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Finchie.

[00:40:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Finchie.

[00:40:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Finchie.

[00:40:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Finchie.

[00:40:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Finchie.

[00:40:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:11] Yeah.

[00:40:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:40:23] [SPEAKER_03]: She said her brother committed suicide.

[00:40:24] [SPEAKER_03]: That wasn't even true.

[00:40:25] [SPEAKER_03]: The guy's alive.

[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_03]: He's a doctor somewhere, but it took off all this work.

[00:40:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Everybody has to work around her schedule.

[00:40:30] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just a fascinating thing.

[00:40:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's only three episodes.

[00:40:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I think well worth a watch if you're into crazy people's behavior.

[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_03]: The other thing I watched was the dateline about the Karen Reed trial.

[00:40:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm obsessed with it.

[00:40:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Me and my sister have laughed.

[00:40:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Are I mean, it's not funny.

[00:40:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, there's a dead man.

[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_03]: I get it.

[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_03]: But the things that this group of people thought were normal, the first bar they went to and

[00:40:57] [SPEAKER_03]: the lady who may or may not have hit her boyfriend, John, with a car.

[00:41:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Problem is nobody knows anything because everybody was so drunk all night, all night drunk.

[00:41:07] [SPEAKER_03]: The first bar, they have her on video, nine drinks.

[00:41:12] Nine?

[00:41:13] She's a tiny person.

[00:41:14] [SPEAKER_03]: She weighs 100 pounds.

[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Then she gets in a giant SUV and drives to the next bar.

[00:41:18] Oh my God.

[00:41:19] [SPEAKER_03]: And because they're all cops or friends of cops, they walk out of with a drink, which you're not supposed to do anywhere.

[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_03]: And then took that drink into another bar.

[00:41:30] [SPEAKER_03]: I am fascinated with the amount of drinking because I was like, are these guys like in their 20s?

[00:41:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:41:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I Googled it.

[00:41:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Even that would be extreme.

[00:41:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know how she's still standing up.

[00:41:39] [SPEAKER_03]: But also, have we proven those are drink drinks?

[00:41:43] Right.

[00:41:43] [SPEAKER_03]: What if it was just tonic water?

[00:41:47] Yeah.

[00:41:48] [SPEAKER_03]: You're Jack Madigan lawyer brains here.

[00:41:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:41:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Have we interviewed the bartenders?

[00:41:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I haven't heard that.

[00:41:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Do you remember this night years ago?

[00:41:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you give this tiny lady nine alcoholic drinks?

[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Or what if it was just a seven up?

[00:42:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:42:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think they proved that part.

[00:42:04] [SPEAKER_03]: She doesn't seem to be a seven up singer.

[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:42:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I think she had nine drinks.

[00:42:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I definitely think.

[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, props lady.

[00:42:11] [SPEAKER_03]: I would not be standing.

[00:42:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Especially hard liquor.

[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_03]: No, no, no.

[00:42:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Give me a double.

[00:42:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Give me a double Bud Light.

[00:42:20] [SPEAKER_03]: It was a crazy amount.

[00:42:22] [SPEAKER_03]: If you've never heard of this, Google it.

[00:42:25] [SPEAKER_03]: If you're a crime person, you'll never get out of it.

[00:42:27] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a podcast.

[00:42:27] [SPEAKER_03]: She's being retried in January of 2025.

[00:42:31] [SPEAKER_03]: You talked about it in Hampton Beach.

[00:42:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I did it in Hampton Beach because all of a sudden all these people in just a regular beach bar started staring at the TV in the middle of the day and I'm like, what?

[00:42:41] [SPEAKER_03]: There's no sports on.

[00:42:41] [SPEAKER_03]: There's nothing.

[00:42:42] [SPEAKER_03]: It was the announcement that the prosecution is going to, the state is going after her again.

[00:42:47] [SPEAKER_03]: And, and, and, and super stupid.

[00:42:49] [SPEAKER_03]: This is now personal because she was cleared by that jury of two of the three charges.

[00:42:54] [SPEAKER_03]: They've all said that we all voted unanimous, unanimously on two, couldn't decide on the third.

[00:42:59] [SPEAKER_03]: So then they declared the whole thing a mistrial.

[00:43:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, you already struck out on two.

[00:43:04] [SPEAKER_03]: My feeling is I do not know what happened that night.

[00:43:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I know for sure no one's proved to me that Karen did it.

[00:43:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I have drunk relatives that I know for sure could do things and wake up and not remember them.

[00:43:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:43:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm on occasion.

[00:43:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I've done the same.

[00:43:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Thankfully, I just don't do anything crazy.

[00:43:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:43:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, cause I said to my sister, it's like when we all would get too drunk at the lake and then the next day somebody go, Hey, remember when, you know, Tom did blah, blah.

[00:43:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And then we all go, yeah, right.

[00:43:35] [SPEAKER_03]: But we're not sure either.

[00:43:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Then we're just, there's a bunch of people in this house.

[00:43:39] [SPEAKER_03]: The strangest thing for those of you who, so supposedly they go to this after party.

[00:43:45] [SPEAKER_03]: It's now one 30 in the morning.

[00:43:46] [SPEAKER_03]: They're still drinking, still drinking.

[00:43:48] [SPEAKER_03]: It's going on.

[00:43:48] [SPEAKER_03]: They move bars.

[00:43:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It everyone's driving.

[00:43:52] [SPEAKER_03]: She's my size.

[00:43:53] [SPEAKER_03]: So she can't see the front or back of that car.

[00:43:55] [SPEAKER_03]: It's ridiculous.

[00:43:56] [SPEAKER_03]: They should ban that people under five foot two.

[00:43:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I shouldn't be allowed to buy that car.

[00:44:00] [SPEAKER_03]: It's crazy.

[00:44:01] [SPEAKER_03]: It's craziness.

[00:44:05] [SPEAKER_03]: They would just say, there's a high chart.

[00:44:07] [SPEAKER_03]: If you're this high, you can buy this car, but if you're shorter, you can't unless you let us put seat risers and then blocks on the pedals like my grandma used to have for you to reach the gas.

[00:44:18] Oh my God.

[00:44:19] [SPEAKER_03]: They go to the last party.

[00:44:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll make this quick in case people don't care about this subject.

[00:44:24] [SPEAKER_03]: They go to this after, after party.

[00:44:26] [SPEAKER_03]: It's at a cop's house.

[00:44:28] [SPEAKER_03]: There's all kinds of cops partying or whatever.

[00:44:31] [SPEAKER_03]: They, there's a nor'easter and the nor'easter.

[00:44:34] [SPEAKER_03]: It's such a good part of the story.

[00:44:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Such a good part.

[00:44:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Can't believe you're out drinking and driving in there.

[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_03]: God, it's time to hug her down.

[00:44:43] [SPEAKER_03]: What's the matter with you?

[00:44:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Talk about the plow driver.

[00:44:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Jesus H Christ.

[00:44:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, um, her and Jan go in her car.

[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_03]: She's driving.

[00:44:55] [SPEAKER_03]: John's the guy that died.

[00:44:56] [SPEAKER_03]: John's the guy that died.

[00:44:57] [SPEAKER_03]: He was also a cop.

[00:44:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:44:59] [SPEAKER_03]: She says that he got out of the car cause they weren't sure if the party was still going on or was it winding down?

[00:45:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:45:06] [SPEAKER_03]: She says she looked up, she sees his head go in and then she looked down at her phone and then she looked up and he was gone.

[00:45:15] [SPEAKER_03]: So she assumed he went in the house.

[00:45:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:45:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, a few minutes go by and he's not texting her like, yeah, come in or we're good or nothing.

[00:45:23] [SPEAKER_03]: So then she says on Dateline, I called him 50 times.

[00:45:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Who does that?

[00:45:28] [SPEAKER_00]: 50 times.

[00:45:29] [SPEAKER_00]: 50 times.

[00:45:30] [SPEAKER_03]: 50.

[00:45:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I think cause my, this is what my sister said.

[00:45:34] [SPEAKER_03]: She goes, well, Kathleen, this is why I think she may have done it.

[00:45:38] [SPEAKER_03]: She doesn't, my sister doesn't think she necessarily knows she did it.

[00:45:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Cause junkie, the clown's just flying around in this giant SUV.

[00:45:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Christ knows what you've hit or not hit.

[00:45:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:45:47] [SPEAKER_03]: She said, if I dropped Matt off and he went in a house and didn't come back out, I'm not leaving him there.

[00:45:55] Right.

[00:45:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I said, yes, but those two were fighting all night long.

[00:45:59] [SPEAKER_03]: It's freezing.

[00:46:00] [SPEAKER_03]: The snow's going sideways.

[00:46:02] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a blizzard.

[00:46:03] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a true New Easter.

[00:46:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I think he went in.

[00:46:06] [SPEAKER_03]: These are all his friends.

[00:46:07] [SPEAKER_03]: So she knows he's safe or at least she believes he's safe.

[00:46:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:46:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And then he doesn't answer her calls and he doesn't text.

[00:46:16] [SPEAKER_03]: And she says, fuck you.

[00:46:17] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm leaving.

[00:46:17] [SPEAKER_03]: And she goes home.

[00:46:18] Right.

[00:46:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Now they're saying, nope, he never went in the house.

[00:46:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:46:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's the weirdest thing to me of the whole entire thing.

[00:46:26] [SPEAKER_03]: They find it dead.

[00:46:27] [SPEAKER_03]: They find John dead in the snow.

[00:46:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Nobody's still told me where in a yard this location is.

[00:46:32] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's very bothersome to me.

[00:46:34] [SPEAKER_03]: What somebody said he was by a tree line.

[00:46:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, did he fly from the street to a tree line or is he by the road?

[00:46:40] [SPEAKER_03]: She said that on the dateline too.

[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_03]: On the dateline.

[00:46:42] [SPEAKER_05]: She found him in the bushes.

[00:46:43] [SPEAKER_03]: In the bushes.

[00:46:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:46:45] No.

[00:46:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, then she would have had to back her car through a yard.

[00:46:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Keep going.

[00:46:50] [SPEAKER_03]: In inches of snow.

[00:46:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:46:52] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's pounding snow.

[00:46:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Well.

[00:46:54] [SPEAKER_03]: It's ridiculous.

[00:46:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Cops come.

[00:46:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Amulets comes.

[00:46:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Coroner comes.

[00:46:57] [SPEAKER_03]: We have a dead body.

[00:46:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Blah, blah, blah.

[00:46:59] [SPEAKER_03]: No one in that house comes out.

[00:47:01] Right.

[00:47:02] [SPEAKER_03]: How do you not.

[00:47:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, honey.

[00:47:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, there's a dead guy in the front yard.

[00:47:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Should we go out?

[00:47:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Nah.

[00:47:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Nah.

[00:47:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Or was everybody too drunk and they don't remember or they're lying that they didn't even

[00:47:15] [SPEAKER_03]: hear any of it.

[00:47:16] Right.

[00:47:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:47:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:47:21] [SPEAKER_03]: The opposing theory is he went in that house.

[00:47:24] [SPEAKER_03]: John did.

[00:47:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Karen went home.

[00:47:26] [SPEAKER_03]: There was some sort of fight because he has dog claw marks all over him and they had

[00:47:30] [SPEAKER_03]: a German shepherd, which they've since rehomed.

[00:47:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:47:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:47:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, I think there was a fight and he accidentally, I think it was all accidental.

[00:47:39] [SPEAKER_03]: He got killed and they threw him out in the snow and tried to blame her.

[00:47:43] Yes.

[00:47:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm kind of going with that theory.

[00:47:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:47:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Or my other theory is Karen did it and has no idea she did it.

[00:47:51] [SPEAKER_03]: So when she says I didn't do it, she did keep saying that night, did I hit him?

[00:47:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Did I hit him?

[00:47:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Why would that enter your mind if you didn't even think I've never even drunk?

[00:48:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never go.

[00:48:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Did I run over somebody?

[00:48:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I, it's a weird thing to pull out of nowhere.

[00:48:06] Right.

[00:48:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[00:48:08] [SPEAKER_03]: It was a two hour date line.

[00:48:10] Okay.

[00:48:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I went down rabbit holes on the internet.

[00:48:12] [SPEAKER_03]: My friend Kelly McFallon.

[00:48:14] McFallon.

[00:48:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Kelly McFallon.

[00:48:15] [SPEAKER_03]: She's all into it because she's up in the Northeast.

[00:48:18] [SPEAKER_03]: She knows every single thing about it and she's going to be with me in Spartanburg

[00:48:22] [SPEAKER_03]: and Willem and I can't wait to talk about all this.

[00:48:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And there's gotta be, there's a podcast called the 13th juror, but I found that one to be

[00:48:29] [SPEAKER_03]: too hard.

[00:48:30] [SPEAKER_03]: I found an easier one.

[00:48:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:48:32] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll tell you guys what it was, but I forgot.

[00:48:34] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll put it in the schnows.

[00:48:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Put it in the schnows.

[00:48:36] [SPEAKER_02]: Holy shit.

[00:48:37] [SPEAKER_03]: They found a human foot found on Everest.

[00:48:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm obsessed with anything Mount Everest.

[00:48:43] [SPEAKER_03]: You really are.

[00:48:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I am.

[00:48:44] [SPEAKER_03]: May hold the key to one of the mountaineering's greatest mysteries.

[00:48:48] Oh.

[00:48:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[00:48:49] [SPEAKER_03]: When a National Geographic documentary team discovered a boot and a sock sticking out of

[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_03]: a melting glacier on Mount Everest in September, they most immediately realized the significance

[00:48:58] [SPEAKER_03]: as a clue to a centuries old mystery.

[00:49:00] [SPEAKER_03]: A label name was stitched onto the woolen sock red, A.C. Irvine, revealing it probably

[00:49:06] [SPEAKER_03]: belonged to British climber Andrew, quote, Sandy Irvine.

[00:49:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Irvine's disappearance in 1924 alongside his compatriot, George Mallory, is one of mountaineering's

[00:49:16] [SPEAKER_03]: biggest mysteries with a solution that has the potential to change history.

[00:49:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:49:21] [SPEAKER_03]: The pair disappeared on June 8th.

[00:49:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Ooh, that's late.

[00:49:24] Yeah.

[00:49:24] [SPEAKER_03]: You're supposed to go up in May, I thought.

[00:49:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:49:27] [SPEAKER_03]: They disappeared 800 feet below the summit.

[00:49:30] Oh.

[00:49:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:49:32] [SPEAKER_03]: They set off to complete the first documented ascent of the world's tallest mountain.

[00:49:36] Okay.

[00:49:37] [SPEAKER_03]: But whether they made it to the summit, becoming thus the first person known to reach it, is

[00:49:43] [SPEAKER_03]: still unknown.

[00:49:44] [SPEAKER_03]: So they don't even know if they got up there, were you up there on your way back?

[00:49:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:49:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Or had you not made it?

[00:49:50] [SPEAKER_03]: While Mallory's body was discovered in 1999, neither Irvine's boot nor the camera that

[00:49:55] [SPEAKER_03]: the climbers were carrying, which might reveal whether they reached the summit had ever been

[00:49:58] [SPEAKER_03]: found.

[00:49:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Until this latest expedition, the Nat Geo team, which included all these people, it doesn't

[00:50:04] [SPEAKER_03]: matter.

[00:50:04] [SPEAKER_03]: This is when they found the boot.

[00:50:06] [SPEAKER_03]: They're waiting on DNA confirmation from the sock, comparing samples from the foot of

[00:50:13] [SPEAKER_03]: one taken from a family member.

[00:50:14] [SPEAKER_03]: However, it appears the first evidence of his death since his disappearance.

[00:50:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:50:19] [SPEAKER_03]: It's the real end.

[00:50:20] [SPEAKER_03]: It's the real.

[00:50:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, yeah, let's get that camera going.

[00:50:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Is that film still going to work?

[00:50:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I doubt it.

[00:50:26] Probably not.

[00:50:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't think so.

[00:50:28] You never know though.

[00:50:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, a few days before they found that boot, the team discovered an oxygen cylinder from

[00:50:36] [SPEAKER_03]: a 1933 expedition that had also attempted to scale levers.

[00:50:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Though the expedition failed, it had found an ice axe belonging to Irvine on the mountain's

[00:50:44] [SPEAKER_03]: northeast ridge, leading the team to speculate that they might be close to his body.

[00:50:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Hmm.

[00:50:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, you gotta wait for shit to melt.

[00:50:52] Yeah.

[00:50:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:50:55] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll find out.

[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think we'll ever find out if they made it, if they were coming or going.

[00:51:02] [SPEAKER_03]: This is just strange news my mom sent me this morning.

[00:51:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:51:06] [SPEAKER_03]: What?

[00:51:06] [SPEAKER_03]: On my text, it says, Mom.

[00:51:08] [SPEAKER_03]: And there's a picture of what I would call, I guess they call it a cast, a footprint that

[00:51:16] [SPEAKER_03]: they've poured like cement in to make a cast out of it.

[00:51:20] Mm-hmm.

[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's a big footprint.

[00:51:21] [SPEAKER_03]: And she said, looky here, your friend is in Missouri.

[00:51:25] Oh.

[00:51:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Hello, Mom.

[00:51:30] [SPEAKER_03]: You want to call me on this one?

[00:51:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Though I Googled it.

[00:51:33] [SPEAKER_04]: Do you want to call me?

[00:51:34] [SPEAKER_03]: So in Missouri, we claim we have a big foot too.

[00:51:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Everybody has a big foot.

[00:51:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Ours is called Momo for Missouri Monster.

[00:51:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Momo.

[00:51:41] [SPEAKER_03]: And he hangs out mostly in southern Missouri where the Ozark Mountains get really big.

[00:51:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:51:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And there's two creeks that he likes.

[00:51:47] [SPEAKER_03]: We know this much as fact.

[00:51:49] Oh, okay.

[00:51:49] [SPEAKER_03]: This Missouri man just found these mammoth tracks in his garden and they are huge and

[00:51:54] [SPEAKER_03]: it's not a bear print.

[00:51:56] [SPEAKER_03]: He was able to get this plaster cast made of the print he found about 20 feet away from

[00:52:00] [SPEAKER_03]: his onions and watermelon.

[00:52:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh.

[00:52:02] [SPEAKER_03]: He is a big man and placed his foot next to the plaster cast for a comparison and it dwarfs

[00:52:07] [SPEAKER_03]: him.

[00:52:08] Oh.

[00:52:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Later in the episode, they made an expedition in the nearby Missouri woods and captured this

[00:52:13] [SPEAKER_03]: huge heat on one of their signature cameras.

[00:52:15] [SPEAKER_03]: So they have one of those heat and there's just this huge...

[00:52:18] Oh.

[00:52:19] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.

[00:52:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what else would that would be.

[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_03]: If it's a bear, it's an enormous bear.

[00:52:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Big bear.

[00:52:24] [SPEAKER_03]: We do have bears, but our bears aren't that big.

[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Now, if you go into Bass Pro Shop and they'll say, here's a Missouri brown bear, I'm taller

[00:52:31] [SPEAKER_03]: than it when it stands up.

[00:52:33] Yeah.

[00:52:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I think if I have boxing gloves...

[00:52:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Come on, man.

[00:52:35] [SPEAKER_04]: You can do it.

[00:52:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I can do it.

[00:52:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:52:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:52:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, uh, this guy said a couple of weeks ago, I heard the first yell from the creature

[00:52:43] [SPEAKER_03]: that lives at the back of my property.

[00:52:45] [SPEAKER_03]: First time I've heard anything in the two years since we've been here.

[00:52:47] [SPEAKER_03]: It sounded like part of a Tarzan yell.

[00:52:49] [SPEAKER_03]: It was so loud, even though it was approximately 10 plus acres away from where I was standing.

[00:52:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Something odd is happening in the Southern Missouri woods.

[00:52:58] [SPEAKER_03]: While there's no proof as to what this creature is, there are no wildlife species I'm aware

[00:53:03] [SPEAKER_03]: of in the state that can explain these occurrences.

[00:53:06] Wow.

[00:53:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Right?

[00:53:07] That's pretty cool.

[00:53:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll stay on top of it, termites.

[00:53:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you.

[00:53:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:53:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Wouldn't it be something if we finally caught one and we caught it in Missouri versus Washington

[00:53:15] [SPEAKER_03]: or Oregon or British Columbia where they think most of them are?

[00:53:18] Yeah.

[00:53:18] [SPEAKER_03]: It'd be a little weird, right?

[00:53:20] [SPEAKER_04]: Totally weird.

[00:53:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's move on.

[00:53:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:53:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, speaking of weird animals, since I'm on that and then, oh my God, this is my favorite

[00:53:30] [SPEAKER_02]: story.

[00:53:30] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:53:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:53:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Wolverines are super rare and hardly ever seen ever, ever, ever by people.

[00:53:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:53:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, Eugene, Oregon.

[00:53:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Shocked resident films, rare Wolverine charging down the street.

[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_03]: What the fuck?

[00:53:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:53:48] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what it says in the video.

[00:53:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[00:53:51] Cool.

[00:53:52] [SPEAKER_03]: He said, will he gasp as he filmed the rarely seen?

[00:53:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And they're not small.

[00:53:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, they're not huge, but they're bigger than a fox.

[00:53:59] Wow.

[00:54:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Dude, this guy is out of his element.

[00:54:02] [SPEAKER_03]: He cried as the hairy animals scampered down the street.

[00:54:06] [SPEAKER_03]: He rushed out the door to start filming it.

[00:54:08] [SPEAKER_03]: He had initially no idea.

[00:54:09] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think most people would know.

[00:54:11] No.

[00:54:11] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_03]: It would look like a brown, bigger raccoon, maybe?

[00:54:16] Yeah.

[00:54:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Weasel.

[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Some sort of weasel.

[00:54:18] [SPEAKER_03]: A weasel.

[00:54:19] Yeah.

[00:54:20] [SPEAKER_03]: After a split second, I knew it wasn't a small bear.

[00:54:22] [SPEAKER_03]: I realized it was a wolverine.

[00:54:23] [SPEAKER_03]: I'd never seen one in real life, just on wildlife shows.

[00:54:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Wolverine sightings are exceedingly rare with the dwindling populations across the country.

[00:54:31] [SPEAKER_03]: The United States has an estimated population of fewer than 300.

[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[00:54:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Most are found in Alaska, where there are thought to be around two wolverines per 1,000 square miles.

[00:54:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[00:54:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Like bears, they walk on the soles of their feet and have curved, partially retractable claws that allow them to climb trees.

[00:54:49] [SPEAKER_03]: They're ferocious predators that prey mainly on rabbits and rodents.

[00:54:52] [SPEAKER_02]: No.

[00:54:52] [SPEAKER_02]: All right.

[00:54:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Although rare, there have been more sightings in Oregon than way before.

[00:54:57] [SPEAKER_03]: They're kind of cute.

[00:54:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Not as cute as a sloth, but kind of cute.

[00:55:02] [SPEAKER_03]: So if you're in Eugene, Oregon, I've been there many, many times, keep your eye out.

[00:55:06] [SPEAKER_03]: This guy lives up there.

[00:55:07] Cool.

[00:55:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't chase it.

[00:55:10] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what they're saying.

[00:55:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't chase it.

[00:55:11] Don't chase the wolverine?

[00:55:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-mm.

[00:55:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:55:13] [SPEAKER_03]: You can take photos.

[00:55:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't disturb it.

[00:55:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't let him see you videoing him.

[00:55:19] [SPEAKER_03]: They're also considered threatened in Oregon, so you can't chase him on foot or far.

[00:55:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Leave him alone, is what they're saying.

[00:55:24] Wow.

[00:55:25] [SPEAKER_03]: This is the craziest story.

[00:55:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Hold my beer, Kentucky.

[00:55:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:55:30] [SPEAKER_03]: This is what sometimes I'm afraid of.

[00:55:33] Okay.

[00:55:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:55:35] [SPEAKER_03]: It's always Kentucky.

[00:55:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I'm always afraid if I'm dead, people aren't going to really...

[00:55:39] [SPEAKER_03]: You got to make sure I'm dead.

[00:55:41] [SPEAKER_03]: That's why I'm in favor of a Viking funeral.

[00:55:43] Okay.

[00:55:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Because if you say I'm dead, fine.

[00:55:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:55:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Put me in the boat, set that on fire, and then I drown.

[00:55:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:55:49] [SPEAKER_03]: So if I wasn't dead, I'm for sure going to be dead.

[00:55:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:55:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to end up alive, but everybody thinks I'm dead.

[00:55:56] Okay.

[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Kentucky man's organs were nearly harvested.

[00:56:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Then the doctors realized he was still alive.

[00:56:04] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh!

[00:56:05] [SPEAKER_03]: He started crying.

[00:56:06] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh!

[00:56:11] [SPEAKER_03]: He was moving around, kind of thrashing, like moving, thrashing around on the bed.

[00:56:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Natasha Miller, an organ preservationist, in the operating room.

[00:56:20] [SPEAKER_03]: This lady was in the operating room.

[00:56:22] [SPEAKER_03]: This occurred in October of 2021.

[00:56:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Nobody told us till now.

[00:56:26] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh my God!

[00:56:27] [SPEAKER_03]: And we went over there, and you could see he had tears in his eyes.

[00:56:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Visibly...

[00:56:31] [SPEAKER_03]: He was visibly crying.

[00:56:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that's awful.

[00:56:33] [SPEAKER_03]: The doctors...

[00:56:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Two of the doctors refused to perform the organ retrieval.

[00:56:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I would fucking hope so.

[00:56:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely.

[00:56:40] Jesus.

[00:56:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, come on.

[00:56:42] [SPEAKER_03]: He was a drug guy, and he was declared dead.

[00:56:44] [SPEAKER_03]: So, you know...

[00:56:45] [SPEAKER_03]: But clearly he wasn't.

[00:56:47] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh my God.

[00:56:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that's horrible.

[00:56:49] [SPEAKER_03]: The procuring surgeon said, I'm out.

[00:56:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to have anything to do with this.

[00:56:53] [SPEAKER_03]: It was very chaotic.

[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Everyone was upset.

[00:56:56] [SPEAKER_03]: The patient, 36-year-old Anthony Thomas T.J. Hoover, who had been admitted to the hospital

[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_03]: in Richmond, Kentucky, earlier that day after a drug overdose, his sister said the outlet,

[00:57:10] [SPEAKER_03]: she had a flicker of concern when, as her brother was being taken from the intensive care unit

[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_03]: to an operating room, she recalled seeing him open his eyes, which then began darting

[00:57:19] [SPEAKER_03]: around the room.

[00:57:20] [SPEAKER_03]: It was kind of his way of letting us know.

[00:57:22] [SPEAKER_03]: In the operating room, Miller recalled the case coordinator phoning her supervisor

[00:57:26] [SPEAKER_03]: for help once they saw signs of life.

[00:57:29] [SPEAKER_03]: The supervisor insisted the case coordinator needed to find another doctor to do it.

[00:57:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes!

[00:57:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Initially, the organ retrieval was canceled.

[00:57:36] [SPEAKER_03]: However, Hoover now lives with Rory, his legal guardian.

[00:57:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, there were apparently people that were going to go ahead and do this.

[00:57:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I mean, that's murder.

[00:57:47] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:57:48] [SPEAKER_03]: You can't.

[00:57:48] [SPEAKER_03]: That's insane.

[00:57:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, oh my God.

[00:57:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Isn't this your worst nightmare?

[00:57:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Being alive during surgery?

[00:57:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, not during surgery, just during any kind of don't bury me alive.

[00:58:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:58:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, don't say I'm dead and have a wake and I'm not.

[00:58:03] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:58:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh God.

[00:58:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh God.

[00:58:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, several of us employees needed to go to therapy.

[00:58:11] Oh shit.

[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_03]: It took a toll on a lot of people.

[00:58:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I bet.

[00:58:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:58:15] [SPEAKER_03]: The safety of our patients at the hospital is always our highest priority.

[00:58:19] [SPEAKER_03]: We work closely with them and their families.

[00:58:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:58:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Not close enough.

[00:58:23] [SPEAKER_03]: You're off a little bit there, Richmond.

[00:58:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Tiny bit.

[00:58:26] [SPEAKER_03]: And then you think this poor guy's like, this is not what I meant at the DMV.

[00:58:30] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry.

[00:58:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[00:58:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I didn't think I'd still be alive.

[00:58:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh God.

[00:58:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Um, I don't, it doesn't say yet.

[00:58:40] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure there is.

[00:58:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:58:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, um, every transplant surgery has got a story about themselves or a colleague that's

[00:58:52] [SPEAKER_03]: had something like this.

[00:58:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:58:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Well then I don't really want to, I don't, that makes me not want to do this.

[00:58:57] No.

[00:58:57] Ever.

[00:58:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Cause they said they're putting pressure on people to harvest organs cause there's so

[00:59:02] [SPEAKER_03]: many waiting lists.

[00:59:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[00:59:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:59:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Kentucky hold my beer.

[00:59:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, that's just, honestly, you do hear about these things in South America more frequently

[00:59:12] [SPEAKER_03]: than you do here.

[00:59:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[00:59:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Richmond, Kentucky.

[00:59:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going to the hospital.

[00:59:16] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:59:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

[00:59:19] That's what my dad would say.

[00:59:20] Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

[00:59:21] Come on.

[00:59:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:59:28] [SPEAKER_03]: So here's a little business section.

[00:59:30] [SPEAKER_03]: True value hardware has declared bankruptcy.

[00:59:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't know we still had them.

[00:59:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I love them.

[00:59:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I know we have ACE hardwares.

[00:59:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I love ACE.

[00:59:39] Maybe I'm thinking of ACE.

[00:59:40] I think.

[00:59:40] [SPEAKER_03]: You're thinking of ACE.

[00:59:41] [SPEAKER_03]: When was the last time you saw true value hardware anywhere?

[00:59:44] Canada.

[00:59:46] [SPEAKER_03]: It's, oh, Canada?

[00:59:47] Yeah.

[00:59:47] We have it.

[00:59:48] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.

[00:59:49] Thank you.

[00:59:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, they're selling substantially all of its businesses to rival do it best.

[00:59:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Never heard of that.

[00:59:58] No.

[00:59:58] [SPEAKER_03]: What's do it best?

[00:59:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Nobody goes to do it best.

[01:00:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Do it best.

[01:00:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's terrible.

[01:00:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Why would you sell to those people?

[01:00:05] [SPEAKER_03]: We don't even know who they are.

[01:00:06] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a 75 year old hardware store has filed for bankruptcy and selling it all to the rival

[01:00:11] [SPEAKER_03]: company.

[01:00:11] [SPEAKER_03]: They said they will continue day to day operations selling hardware and other home goods tools.

[01:00:17] [SPEAKER_03]: I never heard of it.

[01:00:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:00:18] [SPEAKER_04]: It looks like a fake store.

[01:00:20] [SPEAKER_03]: It's going to remain open during these bankruptcy proceedings.

[01:00:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Is there, does any termites are there?

[01:00:31] [SPEAKER_03]: It's had.

[01:00:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Do it best is headquartered in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

[01:00:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I've been to Fort Wayne, Indiana.

[01:00:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't see anything called do it best.

[01:00:36] [SPEAKER_03]: There you go.

[01:00:37] [SPEAKER_03]: They have only six.

[01:00:40] [SPEAKER_03]: How many floors are there?

[01:00:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:00:42] [SPEAKER_03]: How many stores are there?

[01:00:43] [SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't say how many stores do it best have?

[01:00:50] [SPEAKER_04]: Second largest co-op in the industry.

[01:00:52] [SPEAKER_04]: Is that co-op?

[01:00:54] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't, I don't get it.

[01:00:55] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a co-op.

[01:00:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, hang on.

[01:00:58] [SPEAKER_03]: So.

[01:00:59] [SPEAKER_04]: How many stores?

[01:01:01] [SPEAKER_04]: How many do it best?

[01:01:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's a sad one.

[01:01:05] Hang on.

[01:01:06] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.

[01:01:06] [SPEAKER_04]: 4,100 stores.

[01:01:07] [SPEAKER_03]: 4,100?

[01:01:09] In 52 countries.

[01:01:10] [SPEAKER_03]: In 52 countries.

[01:01:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:01:14] [SPEAKER_03]: 3,300 in the United States.

[01:01:16] [SPEAKER_03]: And I go somewhere in the United States different every weekend.

[01:01:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never seen one in my life.

[01:01:19] Nope.

[01:01:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Huh.

[01:01:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to start Googling the town I go to.

[01:01:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Is there a do it best?

[01:01:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I'm going to go.

[01:01:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[01:01:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's a throwback down memory lane.

[01:01:32] [SPEAKER_03]: TGI Friday sparks major fears from fans as restaurant closures quietly continue.

[01:01:38] [SPEAKER_04]: Nobody cares.

[01:01:39] [SPEAKER_03]: We have talked about this before.

[01:01:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Nobody cares.

[01:01:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I am always shocked on the road.

[01:01:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I can specifically see one right now in my head this summer at Niagara Falls where

[01:01:47] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, wow, there's Fridays and there's people in it.

[01:01:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Now I've been to one, I want to say I was in Nebraska or Kansas and nobody was in there.

[01:01:57] [SPEAKER_03]: It was in a sad, sad strip mall.

[01:01:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And back in the day when we would get off work sometimes, we would go to Friday.

[01:02:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Those potato skins were the best thing on earth.

[01:02:04] [SPEAKER_03]: You can't, and their ranch dressing was just phenomenal.

[01:02:07] [SPEAKER_03]: They had some real winners at TGI Fridays and it was fun back then.

[01:02:11] Mm-hmm.

[01:02:12] [SPEAKER_03]: But then over time, it's not like something better came along.

[01:02:16] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just they went to shit.

[01:02:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:02:17] [SPEAKER_03]: And then Applebee's kind of jacked up their game.

[01:02:20] [SPEAKER_03]: For a second.

[01:02:21] [SPEAKER_03]: For a second.

[01:02:22] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[01:02:22] [SPEAKER_03]: I think their game was falling apart.

[01:02:24] [SPEAKER_03]: But, um, dear God.

[01:02:26] [SPEAKER_03]: OPEX winning.

[01:02:27] [SPEAKER_03]: But I like that they're quietly closing.

[01:02:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Can you call it a closure if no one ever went in?

[01:02:33] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:02:33] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:02:34] [SPEAKER_03]: You're just locking it.

[01:02:36] [SPEAKER_03]: You're not closing it.

[01:02:37] [SPEAKER_03]: You're locking it.

[01:02:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, they've closed more than a dozen locations in the past month including, and here's the

[01:02:43] [SPEAKER_03]: thing.

[01:02:43] [SPEAKER_03]: The one I went on the road, I got the potato skins.

[01:02:45] [SPEAKER_03]: They were terrible.

[01:02:47] [SPEAKER_03]: So disappointing.

[01:02:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:02:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Because that's not something I would normally let myself eat for lunch.

[01:02:52] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:02:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I think I'll have six potato skins.

[01:02:54] [SPEAKER_03]: That's delicious.

[01:02:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Hope I don't gain ten pounds.

[01:02:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah, it's, so they're not announcing it.

[01:03:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, signs posted at these locations focused in East Coast, Southeast, and Midwest described

[01:03:05] [SPEAKER_03]: the decision as difficult and directed customers to nearby restaurants.

[01:03:10] [SPEAKER_03]: The latest closures follow the 36 underperforming TGI locations shuttered in January.

[01:03:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[01:03:15] [SPEAKER_03]: We talked about that.

[01:03:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[01:03:16] [SPEAKER_03]: And several more in the summer.

[01:03:18] [SPEAKER_03]: It has barely 200 left in the country.

[01:03:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Really?

[01:03:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to one as a send off.

[01:03:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[01:03:23] [SPEAKER_03]: I just have to figure out.

[01:03:25] [SPEAKER_03]: The most recent closures were in, uh, Leesburg, Virginia, Allentown, Pennsylvania, Middletown,

[01:03:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Poughkeepsie, Clifton Park, New York, and Enfield, Connecticut.

[01:03:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Other closures include, and there's, oh, St. Louis.

[01:03:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Um.

[01:03:40] [SPEAKER_04]: They went all in with the, um, Jack Daniels sauce.

[01:03:43] [SPEAKER_03]: The Jack Daniels sauce.

[01:03:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I hated it.

[01:03:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:03:46] [SPEAKER_03]: That's awful.

[01:03:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, yeah.

[01:03:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Um.

[01:03:49] [SPEAKER_03]: You can't do it.

[01:03:50] [SPEAKER_03]: TGI Fridays is not commenting.

[01:03:52] [SPEAKER_03]: They're just saying, you just go there and find out.

[01:03:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[01:03:56] [SPEAKER_03]: It first opened in 1965.

[01:04:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Globally, it operates more than 650.

[01:04:03] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm always amazed when you go somewhere else in the world and you're like, they have a Friday's?

[01:04:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's weird.

[01:04:07] [SPEAKER_03]: What are we shipping out of America and where are we thinking hard enough?

[01:04:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Are the skins still good?

[01:04:11] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:04:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Can you make the same potato skins here without the same stuff?

[01:04:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:04:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know about all that.

[01:04:15] [SPEAKER_03]: You can get them in the freezer section.

[01:04:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I did.

[01:04:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I saw it in a Marriott courtyard recently, um, with Michael.

[01:04:22] [SPEAKER_03]: They actually have Friday's frozen stuff as a choice in-

[01:04:26] [SPEAKER_03]: In a microwave.

[01:04:27] [SPEAKER_03]: In a microwave.

[01:04:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:04:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, all right, termites.

[01:04:31] [SPEAKER_03]: This one's gonna, this is gonna bother people who care.

[01:04:34] Okay.

[01:04:35] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I have a couple feel good stories.

[01:04:36] [SPEAKER_05]: People who care.

[01:04:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:04:38] Okay.

[01:04:39] [SPEAKER_03]: This is getting ridiculous.

[01:04:41] Mm-hmm.

[01:04:41] [SPEAKER_03]: And I need to, to get my yard sale under control too.

[01:04:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Disney's hike.

[01:04:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Your yard sale.

[01:04:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Meaning the apps on my TV.

[01:04:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Your TV is ridiculous.

[01:04:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm paying for DirecTV and I'm paying for, I was an NFL ticket.

[01:04:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I think that's gone.

[01:04:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I had to go get YouTube TV.

[01:05:01] [SPEAKER_03]: It, the front of my TV looks like a yard sale.

[01:05:04] [SPEAKER_03]: It, you can't, like a shitty hoarder.

[01:05:06] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like a hoarder.

[01:05:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm hoarding television.

[01:05:09] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm hoarding.

[01:05:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:05:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, Disney's price hike for its streaming plans in America's day.

[01:05:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Just a year after their last hike.

[01:05:19] Oh.

[01:05:20] [SPEAKER_03]: This is getting crazy.

[01:05:22] [SPEAKER_04]: They hiked it too because they got the Tay Tay movie.

[01:05:24] [SPEAKER_04]: Remember?

[01:05:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[01:05:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Because the Tay Tay movie.

[01:05:26] [SPEAKER_03]: That was back then.

[01:05:27] [SPEAKER_03]: They knew they could do that.

[01:05:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:05:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Starting today.

[01:05:30] [SPEAKER_03]: So this is last week at some point.

[01:05:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Marking a 25% hike.

[01:05:41] [SPEAKER_03]: That's crazy.

[01:06:00] [SPEAKER_03]: For Hulu?

[01:06:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Hulu's ad and stuff.

[01:06:05] [SPEAKER_03]: I think my little pal Bill Burr just got a deal with them for a special.

[01:06:09] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's good.

[01:06:10] [SPEAKER_03]: They're going to go into stand up comedy, but they have live TV.

[01:06:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that can be your TV.

[01:06:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, okay.

[01:06:17] [SPEAKER_03]: So ESPN also has raised their by a dollar to $12.

[01:06:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Worth it.

[01:06:23] [SPEAKER_03]: $12.

[01:06:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:06:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Do I, if I have all the games, do I need to watch people sit around and talking about

[01:06:30] [SPEAKER_03]: the games?

[01:06:31] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:06:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Tommy's broadcasting.

[01:06:34] [SPEAKER_03]: I got Tommy on the games.

[01:06:36] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't need the aftermath.

[01:06:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:06:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Disney's hike plans were announced.

[01:06:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Soon after, streaming fans took to social media claiming they would cancel their subscriptions.

[01:06:48] [SPEAKER_03]: I just feel, I just unsubscribe.

[01:06:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Fuck this greedy platform.

[01:06:53] [SPEAKER_03]: One Reddit user thread person said, same me too.

[01:06:56] [SPEAKER_03]: That's too much of a price hike and honestly the content isn't worth it.

[01:07:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah, people are mad.

[01:07:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it is kind of, I don't know.

[01:07:07] [SPEAKER_03]: If you want to add an extra member, it's $7 a month.

[01:07:11] [SPEAKER_03]: But $10 if you want the ad free version.

[01:07:15] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean.

[01:07:17] [SPEAKER_04]: You can do it for your mom.

[01:07:19] [SPEAKER_03]: My mom has all this.

[01:07:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm paying for that too.

[01:07:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[01:07:22] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[01:07:22] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[01:07:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I don't even know what I'm doing.

[01:07:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I tell Patrick, go down and fix all that, man.

[01:07:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Fix it.

[01:07:29] [SPEAKER_03]: I have two feel good stories.

[01:07:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Hold on.

[01:07:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, hold on.

[01:07:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Baby cat's been up here the whole time.

[01:07:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:07:38] [SPEAKER_03]: She likes coming up here every now and then.

[01:07:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, once a week.

[01:07:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Two feel good stories.

[01:07:44] [SPEAKER_04]: Okay.

[01:07:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Fantastic.

[01:07:47] [SPEAKER_03]: A Polish zoo celebrates the birth of four Sumatran tigers, a critically endangered species.

[01:07:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Fantastic.

[01:07:53] [SPEAKER_03]: We will put it in the shows.

[01:07:54] [SPEAKER_03]: They are the cutest things.

[01:07:56] Wonderful.

[01:07:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, they kept it a closely guarded secret for weeks due to fears that they may not survive.

[01:08:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Officials at the War Claw Zoo in southwestern, uh, Poland said the tigers, uh, their numbers have dwindled to 400 in the whole world.

[01:08:13] Wow.

[01:08:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:08:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[01:08:15] [SPEAKER_03]: They were born on July 22nd.

[01:08:17] [SPEAKER_03]: The zoo chose not to go public with the news until they could grow a bit, gain some strength and be vaccinated.

[01:08:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Each cub is now double the size of a domestic cat.

[01:08:26] Oh.

[01:08:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:08:27] [SPEAKER_03]: They weigh 18 pounds.

[01:08:29] Wow.

[01:08:30] [SPEAKER_03]: The four cubs, blah, blah, blah.

[01:08:31] [SPEAKER_03]: They are the daughters of mother Nuri and father Tenga, who live in Germany.

[01:08:37] [SPEAKER_03]: The zoo, the zoo hailed the birth as a breeding success on a global scale.

[01:08:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[01:08:44] [SPEAKER_03]: But what are we doing?

[01:08:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Are we breeding them to live in a zoo?

[01:08:47] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, that's not nice.

[01:08:49] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:08:49] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:08:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:08:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it depends on how nice your zoo is, I guess.

[01:08:55] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:08:56] [SPEAKER_03]: That's a whole nother argument.

[01:08:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Sure.

[01:08:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, sometimes I don't think we need really with, with AI and with the internet and like, you know what, do we need an elephant in captivity?

[01:09:08] [SPEAKER_03]: It always looks so sad.

[01:09:10] Right.

[01:09:10] [SPEAKER_03]: If you want to see an elephant, you can save up all your money and like my friend Lewis Black and go on a safari and see an elephant.

[01:09:17] Right.

[01:09:18] [SPEAKER_03]: They're there.

[01:09:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:09:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:09:21] [SPEAKER_03]: This seems weird.

[01:09:23] [SPEAKER_03]: These kind of tigers are the most critically endangered tiger subs species.

[01:09:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Also increasing pressure because of poaching and shrinking jungle habitat.

[01:09:32] [SPEAKER_03]: There are only 400 left in the wild.

[01:09:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Sad times, but now we have four more.

[01:09:36] [SPEAKER_03]: But are we going to put them out in the wild?

[01:09:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, do they have a habitat?

[01:09:39] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think you can do that.

[01:09:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, you can put them on a preserve.

[01:09:42] You could.

[01:09:42] [SPEAKER_03]: And then nobody can poach them.

[01:09:44] Right.

[01:09:44] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they can just learn to be tigers.

[01:09:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Like Tonka has learned to be a chimp.

[01:09:49] Tonka is not a chimp.

[01:09:50] [SPEAKER_04]: Tonka has not learned.

[01:09:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Tonka has learned.

[01:09:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[01:09:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Tonka's living his best life.

[01:09:55] [SPEAKER_03]: He has a friend.

[01:09:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I believe it.

[01:09:58] Okay.

[01:09:59] [SPEAKER_03]: This is a feel good story too.

[01:10:01] [SPEAKER_03]: North Carolina cat turns up eight days after his family watched him disappear in Hurricane

[01:10:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Helene floodwaters.

[01:10:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh!

[01:10:09] [SPEAKER_03]: They found a cat.

[01:10:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[01:10:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:10:11] [SPEAKER_03]: They, it's a really cute little white, white cat.

[01:10:14] [SPEAKER_03]: He's very cute.

[01:10:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Here's the family.

[01:10:16] [SPEAKER_03]: They're very happy.

[01:10:16] [SPEAKER_03]: As they watched the Cane River quickly, quickly top its banks on September 27th, Nan and her

[01:10:21] [SPEAKER_03]: family rushed to prepare their property in North Carolina and leave while she and her

[01:10:25] [SPEAKER_03]: son Jonathan were moving their chicken coop to higher ground.

[01:10:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Their cat, Ricardo Blanco, AKA Blanco, got out and disappeared into a nearby cove.

[01:10:35] [SPEAKER_03]: The next time they saw him, he was on top of one of their campers, but the water level

[01:10:39] [SPEAKER_03]: was already too high to rescue him.

[01:10:40] [SPEAKER_03]: And this hurricane was just getting started.

[01:10:42] [SPEAKER_03]: The family watched in horror as the camper Blanco was on began floating down the river

[01:10:47] [SPEAKER_03]: and collided with their next door neighbor's house.

[01:10:49] [SPEAKER_03]: At that point, the one and a half year old cat jumped from the camper to the roof of

[01:10:53] [SPEAKER_03]: the house.

[01:10:53] [SPEAKER_03]: They saw him trying to climb a metal roof to their neighbor's house that began to float

[01:10:57] [SPEAKER_03]: away, but he only managed to make it three fourths of the way up.

[01:11:00] [SPEAKER_03]: He slid down the whirling water and disappeared from sight.

[01:11:02] [SPEAKER_03]: That would kill me.

[01:11:04] Yeah.

[01:11:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what I would do.

[01:11:06] That would be heartbreaking.

[01:11:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:11:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:11:08] [SPEAKER_03]: My heart sank.

[01:11:09] [SPEAKER_03]: I felt immense sadness, blah, blah, blah.

[01:11:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, shoot.

[01:11:14] [SPEAKER_03]: This is with an area was Southern living.

[01:11:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, he began to running on the high path to try to save him.

[01:11:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Jonathan, the sun did, but was stopped dead in his tracks by a power line that fell in

[01:11:23] [SPEAKER_03]: front of him.

[01:11:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they stopped going after him cause they couldn't.

[01:11:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Then eight days after the storm.

[01:11:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[01:11:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Jonathan returned to their property to assess the damage and heard me out Blanco had made

[01:11:34] [SPEAKER_03]: his way back home, texted his mom immediately.

[01:11:37] [SPEAKER_03]: He sent a picture.

[01:11:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I knew it was him.

[01:11:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, they took Blanco to the vet and free vet clinic.

[01:11:43] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's absolutely fine.

[01:11:44] [SPEAKER_03]: That's how great, that's what's great about cats.

[01:11:46] [SPEAKER_03]: They'll, they usually return.

[01:11:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, baby cat likes this story.

[01:11:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:11:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, he'd seen better days.

[01:11:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, they took him to the vet then and they treated him for, he had an infection in

[01:11:58] [SPEAKER_03]: an eye and both ears and some ticks.

[01:12:00] [SPEAKER_03]: He was, he's already been returned home.

[01:12:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my God.

[01:12:03] [SPEAKER_03]: So see horrible hurricane.

[01:12:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yay.

[01:12:05] [SPEAKER_03]: We raised all that money, horrible news, but sometimes good little things happen.

[01:12:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:12:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And all right, I have to do.

[01:12:13] [SPEAKER_05]: Good little things happen.

[01:12:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:12:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, that's just, it wouldn't be great to get your cat back cause you thought, oh shit.

[01:12:18] [SPEAKER_03]: And then you'd feel a little bit guilty that you did that.

[01:12:21] Yes.

[01:12:21] [SPEAKER_03]: You know?

[01:12:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Well not, you didn't do it, but that you couldn't do more to help him.

[01:12:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, we got some thank yous and then we'd do some quotes and we go, um, get on out of

[01:12:32] [SPEAKER_03]: here.

[01:12:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:12:33] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, go get, get, get.

[01:12:47] [SPEAKER_03]: I forget what it was.

[01:12:48] [SPEAKER_03]: It was called like, or something weird.

[01:12:50] [SPEAKER_03]: And it tells you the nutritional value of what's in that bag.

[01:12:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And I said, oh, does it do greenies?

[01:12:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I want to know how much, why are these, would these cats get so fat?

[01:12:58] [SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't do animal food.

[01:13:00] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:13:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Just to let you Mormon people know your funeral potatoes have zero nutritional value.

[01:13:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh no.

[01:13:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Just, um, that was from a recovering Mormon missionary, uh, Denise and Lori, Utah termites.

[01:14:25] [SPEAKER_03]: New York, the city that doesn't sleep.

[01:14:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Bullshit.

[01:14:27] [SPEAKER_03]: You're asleep.

[01:14:28] [SPEAKER_03]: These Utah people are up and offering me liquor at the airport.

[01:14:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And then I want to go, if I get your mimosa, am I allowed to move out of this chair?

[01:14:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Where can I go?

[01:14:38] [SPEAKER_03]: What can I do with it?

[01:14:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Where can I go?

[01:14:40] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just crazy.

[01:14:42] [SPEAKER_03]: That's funny.

[01:14:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Polygamy beer.

[01:14:43] [SPEAKER_03]: That's so funny.

[01:14:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I've seen it too.

[01:14:45] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a whole bar at the airport, the polygamous something.

[01:14:48] [SPEAKER_03]: It's fun.

[01:14:49] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, it might be the seven.

[01:14:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Is it the seven?

[01:14:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:14:52] [SPEAKER_03]: That's from Ingrid, Monique, Jacqueline.

[01:14:56] [SPEAKER_03]: The salt.

[01:15:05] [SPEAKER_04]: They brought, they brought, um, breast cancer stuff.

[01:15:08] [SPEAKER_04]: That was cool.

[01:15:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:15:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Furmanites.

[01:15:11] [SPEAKER_03]: What is a Furmanite?

[01:15:12] I don't know.

[01:15:15] [SPEAKER_05]: I hope so.

[01:15:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Furry Mormons?

[01:15:17] [SPEAKER_03]: I hope so.

[01:15:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Are they Furry Mormons?

[01:15:18] [SPEAKER_03]: You're a Furmanite?

[01:15:20] [SPEAKER_03]: We just gave it up.

[01:15:31] [SPEAKER_03]: The children.

[01:15:32] [SPEAKER_03]: The children.

[01:15:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And then these, uh, shout outs from the, the post office box as I was getting horrible

[01:15:39] [SPEAKER_03]: yelled at.

[01:17:03] [SPEAKER_00]: No.

[01:17:03] [SPEAKER_00]: They say.

[01:17:04] [SPEAKER_03]: You need to learn Spanish.

[01:17:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I gotta learn Spanish.

[01:17:06] [SPEAKER_03]: How am I supposed to extend this career into my 90s?

[01:17:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.

[01:17:09] [SPEAKER_03]: If I don't, right.

[01:17:12] [SPEAKER_03]: T-Tel.

[01:17:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Shannon DC.

[01:17:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Presidential cat toy.

[01:17:16] [SPEAKER_03]: They love.

[01:17:17] [SPEAKER_03]: They.

[01:17:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, they're, they're weird about toys.

[01:17:20] [SPEAKER_03]: So somebody said something.

[01:17:21] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a Trump cat toy.

[01:17:23] [SPEAKER_03]: A Trump cat.

[01:17:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, the Trump guy.

[01:17:24] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a Donald Trump cat toy.

[01:17:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:17:27] [SPEAKER_03]: How long is it till the election?

[01:17:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Two weeks?

[01:17:29] God, yeah.

[01:17:30] [SPEAKER_03]: That was from Amber, Sharon and Ked.

[01:17:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Is it two weeks?

[01:17:34] Yeah.

[01:17:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Two and a half.

[01:17:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, Charlie, my little friend last night at the Ryman said,

[01:17:40] [SPEAKER_03]: that it was doing a joke about these.

[01:17:41] [SPEAKER_03]: This man had a bunch of bumper stickers on his thing.

[01:17:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[01:17:45] [SPEAKER_03]: All of them would kind of compete with, say, the idea of, uh, Harris Waltz.

[01:17:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[01:17:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, I'm, we don't, we don't have alarms here.

[01:17:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I have guns.

[01:17:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.

[01:17:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, like, like that kind of a guy.

[01:17:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Merck.

[01:17:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And then it said Harris Waltz.

[01:18:00] [SPEAKER_03]: When he said Harris Waltz, at the Ryman in Nashville, Tennessee, I would say 40% cheered.

[01:18:06] Yep.

[01:18:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Out of the gate.

[01:18:08] Mm-hmm.

[01:18:08] [SPEAKER_03]: And then 60% booed.

[01:18:10] [SPEAKER_03]: I'd say it was a 60-40 thing.

[01:18:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe 50-50.

[01:18:14] [SPEAKER_03]: No, I don't, I don't know.

[01:18:19] [SPEAKER_03]: It's getting close.

[01:18:19] [SPEAKER_03]: It's gonna be too close and that's gonna be a problem.

[01:18:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:18:23] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what I foresee.

[01:18:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:18:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm stocking up on, well, I don't really have to, I have enough liquor here for 18 people

[01:18:30] [SPEAKER_03]: for a year.

[01:18:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:18:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Something happens.

[01:18:32] [SPEAKER_03]: If there's another COVID termites, you're welcome to walk over in Nashville.

[01:18:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Walk over.

[01:18:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I think it's, yeah, it's gonna be weird.

[01:18:42] [SPEAKER_03]: That's funny.

[01:18:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Day drinking in Omaha koozie, Laura, Molly, Katie.

[01:18:46] They're coming.

[01:18:47] [SPEAKER_03]: They're coming?

[01:18:48] [SPEAKER_03]: To the Steel House.

[01:18:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, to the Steel House in Omaha.

[01:18:50] [SPEAKER_03]: I can't believe how fast those tickets sell.

[01:18:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's great.

[01:18:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:18:54] [SPEAKER_03]: I got some beer money.

[01:18:56] [SPEAKER_03]: The Jaws mints.

[01:18:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I love the Jaws mints.

[01:18:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Why?

[01:18:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And I always hold onto that tin because I don't know where I'd find it again and then another

[01:19:01] [SPEAKER_03]: termite sent some more.

[01:19:02] [SPEAKER_03]: That's from Todd and Cindy.

[01:19:04] [SPEAKER_03]: We're almost out of here.

[01:19:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Halloween catnip toys, Haribo bears.

[01:19:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Michael Pony, New York.

[01:19:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Mashed potato sent a candle.

[01:19:10] Delicious.

[01:19:10] Delicious.

[01:19:11] I know.

[01:19:13] [SPEAKER_03]: A lot of stuff from Tara in Nanocoque, Pennsylvania.

[01:19:18] [SPEAKER_03]: And Jackalope koozies came from an unknown termite.

[01:19:20] [SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know where they came from.

[01:19:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Fun.

[01:19:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:19:25] [SPEAKER_04]: Let's turn my phone to know if you're going to be anything for Halloween.

[01:19:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:19:31] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, what is the bartender's name in the Delta Lounge?

[01:19:36] [SPEAKER_03]: The young one.

[01:19:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Riley.

[01:19:38] [SPEAKER_03]: The girl, Riley.

[01:19:39] [SPEAKER_03]: The girl, Riley.

[01:19:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Riley is like, Kathleen, what are you going to be for Halloween?

[01:19:44] [SPEAKER_03]: And I looked at her.

[01:19:45] [SPEAKER_03]: I have a morning screwdriver and I'm going to go on my 275th night of year on the road.

[01:19:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I go, Riley, that is a question I haven't thought about since I was probably nine.

[01:20:00] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't, I think it's fun.

[01:20:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Other people want to do it.

[01:20:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh-huh.

[01:20:04] [SPEAKER_03]: That, I'm not a creative person like that.

[01:20:07] [SPEAKER_05]: No.

[01:20:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Every year I would just go as a hobo and that was fine politically correct back then.

[01:20:11] [SPEAKER_03]: A hobo?

[01:20:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, my mom wasn't buying costumes.

[01:20:13] [SPEAKER_03]: You had to make your own.

[01:20:15] Not even when you were an adult?

[01:20:16] [SPEAKER_03]: As an adult?

[01:20:17] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:20:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't go as anything.

[01:20:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I went, I worked.

[01:20:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Or I handed out candy.

[01:20:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Now you're going to wear your baby cat shirt.

[01:20:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And I make the kids do it.

[01:20:24] [SPEAKER_03]: You can wear your baby cat shirt.

[01:20:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to wear my baby cat Halloween shirt, which those have been, we sold a shit ton,

[01:20:30] [SPEAKER_03]: which is good.

[01:20:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you, Termines.

[01:20:32] [SPEAKER_03]: They sold out.

[01:20:32] [SPEAKER_04]: We've taken the rest to Wilmington.

[01:20:34] [SPEAKER_04]: That's it.

[01:20:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Wilmington and not Spartanburg.

[01:20:40] [SPEAKER_03]: And Spartanburg.

[01:20:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Spartanburg.

[01:20:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Spartanburg.

[01:20:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Spartanburg.

[01:20:42] [SPEAKER_03]: You just made it, you just made it Swedish.

[01:20:44] [SPEAKER_03]: We're going to Spartanburg.

[01:20:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Spartanburg.

[01:20:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Spartanburg, South Carolina.

[01:20:49] [SPEAKER_03]: You're taking those.

[01:20:50] [SPEAKER_03]: I will be taking those, I guess.

[01:20:52] [SPEAKER_03]: It's the last batch.

[01:20:52] [SPEAKER_03]: If that's what I'm told to do.

[01:20:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, no Halloween.

[01:20:56] [SPEAKER_03]: No, I don't.

[01:20:58] Okay.

[01:20:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:20:59] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just not my thing.

[01:21:00] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not a visually creative person.

[01:21:04] [SPEAKER_03]: I am creative with words.

[01:21:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[01:21:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Like my niece, Emily is very visual.

[01:21:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Like her Instagram.

[01:21:10] [SPEAKER_03]: There's just the strangest pictures, but they're all extremely interesting.

[01:21:13] Cool.

[01:21:14] [SPEAKER_03]: She sees, I think I just move fast and don't see things like that.

[01:21:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Or I don't know.

[01:21:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I just, I'm just, I'm moving on.

[01:21:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Like I do.

[01:21:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I do.

[01:21:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I do can sway.

[01:21:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I gotta get out.

[01:21:25] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, you gotta get moving.

[01:21:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's get going.

[01:21:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, here's a little hall just in honor of Bigfoot being in Missouri.

[01:21:32] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what it sounds like.

[01:21:34] [SPEAKER_03]: It's what they say.

[01:21:35] [SPEAKER_04]: Update on Pinky Tito and your progress.

[01:21:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, pickleball's happening tonight.

[01:21:40] Nice.

[01:21:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:21:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I think so.

[01:21:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Or golf.

[01:21:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:21:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Nine holes of golf.

[01:21:45] [SPEAKER_03]: It's getting dark too early.

[01:21:46] [SPEAKER_03]: It makes me sad.

[01:21:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Pinky Tito play lights out.

[01:21:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Cause I told him you cannot arrive here hungry.

[01:21:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And I am going to bring God awful power bar bullshit and make you eat it.

[01:22:00] [SPEAKER_03]: If you haven't eaten.

[01:22:01] [SPEAKER_03]: We're not here to win, but I'm not here to do all the work either.

[01:22:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Pinky.

[01:22:05] [SPEAKER_03]: You gotta keep your side of the net going.

[01:22:07] [SPEAKER_03]: No, he was good last week.

[01:22:09] [SPEAKER_03]: He was very good.

[01:22:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Is there money involved?

[01:22:11] [SPEAKER_03]: No, there's no money.

[01:22:12] [SPEAKER_03]: No, there's just drinks.

[01:22:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And then we don't even play to the right score.

[01:22:16] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't even know what we just decided it'd be 11 or 12.

[01:22:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't even know.

[01:22:19] [SPEAKER_04]: You don't even know what you played to?

[01:22:21] [SPEAKER_03]: No, I don't know.

[01:22:22] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to go play.

[01:22:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And then when you're done, you get a seltzer with the game.

[01:22:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Nice.

[01:22:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:22:27] [SPEAKER_04]: You have to play a whole game for a seltzer?

[01:22:29] [SPEAKER_03]: No, you don't have to play the whole game for a seltzer.

[01:22:31] [SPEAKER_03]: If someone declares seltzer time, you just have to abide by that.

[01:22:33] [SPEAKER_03]: You're going to take the layer.

[01:22:34] [SPEAKER_03]: So it could be seven to two.

[01:22:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:22:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Because the way they set that game up, sometimes it can take a long time to score.

[01:22:41] [SPEAKER_03]: You got to get your serve back.

[01:22:43] [SPEAKER_03]: You got to do that.

[01:22:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And then one ball, I got seven points in a row.

[01:22:47] [SPEAKER_03]: And then Pinky's like, we have to keep using that ball.

[01:22:50] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, Pinky, they're going to catch on.

[01:22:52] [SPEAKER_03]: They're going to catch on because it's a darker yellow.

[01:22:55] [SPEAKER_03]: The other ones are more neon green.

[01:22:56] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, no, I'm going to hide it in my pocket and then tell him we need more balls

[01:23:00] [SPEAKER_03]: and I'll confuse them.

[01:23:01] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, this is a super, super complicated strategy.

[01:23:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Wow.

[01:23:06] [SPEAKER_03]: You know what, Pinky?

[01:23:07] [SPEAKER_03]: You throw me whatever ball you'd like me to hit.

[01:23:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Done.

[01:23:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:23:10] [SPEAKER_03]: I like the green ball better.

[01:23:12] [SPEAKER_03]: The green ones seem a little bouncier.

[01:23:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

[01:23:15] [SPEAKER_03]: This is a concrete thing.

[01:23:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Are they all concrete?

[01:23:17] I don't know.

[01:23:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know either.

[01:23:19] No.

[01:23:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Who cares?

[01:23:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to look into it.

[01:23:21] It doesn't matter.

[01:23:21] [SPEAKER_03]: It's fun.

[01:23:22] [SPEAKER_03]: And it's warm again for this week until it gets cold.

[01:23:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's 80.

[01:23:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Until it's not.

[01:23:27] [SPEAKER_03]: So I recommend you go watch Anatomy of Lies.

[01:23:29] [SPEAKER_03]: I recommend the Dateline if you can go backwards in time and find the two-hour one about Ken

[01:23:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Reed and Bastion.

[01:23:35] It's in the schnotes.

[01:23:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, great.

[01:23:36] [SPEAKER_03]: It's in the schnotes.

[01:23:37] [SPEAKER_03]: The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame thing, definitely worth a watch.

[01:23:40] [SPEAKER_03]: A lot of guest appearances that are also awesome.

[01:23:44] Mm-hmm.

[01:23:46] [SPEAKER_03]: And I do have a podcast that I like, but I have to go look it up.

[01:23:50] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, it's in the schnotes.

[01:23:52] [SPEAKER_05]: It's in the schnotes.

[01:23:52] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[01:23:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I have a Karen Reed one I like.

[01:23:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:23:54] [SPEAKER_03]: But then there's a new one about Nashville.

[01:23:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Once upon a time in Nashville.

[01:24:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:24:00] [SPEAKER_03]: About a murder.

[01:24:01] Yeah, that's great.

[01:24:02] [SPEAKER_03]: And she was a Harpeth Hall girl.

[01:24:04] [SPEAKER_03]: And if you don't know what Harpeth means, a Harpeth girl is a private girls' school here

[01:24:09] [SPEAKER_03]: in Nashville, established in 1865, so post-Civil War, the families that had money.

[01:24:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Reese Witherspoon is a graduate, as was Minnie Pearl, which I was shocked.

[01:24:19] Yeah.

[01:24:20] [SPEAKER_03]: She didn't seem like she came from that kind of money and that thing.

[01:24:25] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:24:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's about a murder.

[01:24:26] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like three episodes in, and what's crazy is I know a shit ton of people that they're

[01:24:31] [SPEAKER_03]: talking about.

[01:24:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know.

[01:24:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it's a murder or a suicide.

[01:24:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:24:36] [SPEAKER_03]: You have to decide.

[01:24:40] [SPEAKER_04]: Lynette Woodward.

[01:24:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Lynette Woodward is who?

[01:24:43] She's a...

[01:24:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Amy Grant is a Harpeth.

[01:24:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:24:47] [SPEAKER_04]: Linden Wiseman, an Olympic equestrian.

[01:24:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Of course there's an equestrian.

[01:24:54] [SPEAKER_04]: And Ann Dallas Dudley is a suffragette.

[01:24:57] [SPEAKER_03]: A suffragette.

[01:24:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm.

[01:24:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, how throwback, darling.

[01:25:00] [SPEAKER_03]: How throwback.

[01:25:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, wonderful.

[01:25:04] [SPEAKER_03]: And I guess that's it.

[01:25:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Football, going great.

[01:25:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you're crushing.

[01:25:09] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm crushing.

[01:25:10] [SPEAKER_03]: My pick-em pool, I came in second out of 37 people.

[01:25:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Nice!

[01:25:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And it was a rollover week, so I got paid twice.

[01:25:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Boom!

[01:25:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Which paid my entry fee, which is always my goal in the pick-em pool.

[01:25:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[01:25:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Can I just cover my buy-in?

[01:25:20] [SPEAKER_03]: And I did.

[01:25:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:25:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Ashley beat me by points.

[01:25:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And I was working last night, and I couldn't even watch a game, so I was so disappointed.

[01:25:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, I really need to focus.

[01:25:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:25:29] [SPEAKER_03]: My team needs me.

[01:25:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Neasel energy.

[01:25:31] [SPEAKER_03]: They need me there.

[01:25:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:25:32] [SPEAKER_03]: They need my energy.

[01:25:34] [SPEAKER_04]: What are you going to do in Spartanburg and Wilmington?

[01:25:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what I'm going to do in those towns, but I'll tell you this.

[01:25:40] [SPEAKER_03]: I read Southern Living, that magazine, because I really like their cocktail recipes, and I

[01:25:43] [SPEAKER_03]: like their designing ideas.

[01:25:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool.

[01:25:45] [SPEAKER_03]: And they had an article about the 30 best small towns in the South, and Spartanburg and Wilmington

[01:25:52] [SPEAKER_03]: both made it.

[01:25:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Cool!

[01:25:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:25:54] [SPEAKER_03]: So, I don't know what I'm going to do.

[01:25:56] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not sure I've been.

[01:25:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I think I've been to Wilmington.

[01:25:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:25:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I've never been to Wilmington.

[01:26:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Is that where they did Cape Fear?

[01:26:02] I don't know.

[01:26:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Google Cape Fear Wilmington, North Carolina.

[01:26:05] [SPEAKER_00]: The movie?

[01:26:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh-huh.

[01:26:07] [SPEAKER_04]: It wasn't public where?

[01:26:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I think they said it was Cape Fear.

[01:26:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, they're saying the Gilded Age is New York City, but it's really Troy half the

[01:26:15] [SPEAKER_03]: time.

[01:26:15] [SPEAKER_04]: Savannah.

[01:26:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Savannah did Cape Fear?

[01:26:18] [SPEAKER_04]: Yep.

[01:26:18] Huh.

[01:26:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[01:26:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:26:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, back to where I started.

[01:26:22] [SPEAKER_03]: 1962.

[01:26:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:26:25] [SPEAKER_04]: Wilmington was Dawson's Creek.

[01:26:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Wilmington was Dawson's Creek.

[01:26:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:26:29] [SPEAKER_03]: I never watched it.

[01:26:30] [SPEAKER_03]: But I knew it was called Dawson's Creek, and when Tom Cruise went on Oprah, and she said,

[01:26:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, tell us about your new girlfriend.

[01:26:36] [SPEAKER_03]: He said, Oh, Katie is wonderful.

[01:26:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Katie is Kate.

[01:26:40] [SPEAKER_03]: No, he changed her name to Kate.

[01:26:41] Yeah.

[01:26:42] [SPEAKER_03]: She's on Dawson Creek.

[01:26:43] [SPEAKER_03]: He didn't even know the name.

[01:26:44] [SPEAKER_03]: He forgot the S.

[01:26:45] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, Oh, dude.

[01:26:46] [SPEAKER_03]: You did not read her resume good enough when they submitted it to you because that show.

[01:26:51] [SPEAKER_04]: I'll open this up for you.

[01:26:52] [SPEAKER_04]: You can go.

[01:26:53] [SPEAKER_04]: 128 episodes were filmed in Wilmington.

[01:26:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Of Dawson's Creek?

[01:26:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Dawson's Creek.

[01:26:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I don't care about Dawson's Creek.

[01:27:00] [SPEAKER_04]: You will after this.

[01:27:02] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:27:02] [SPEAKER_03]: You'll see everything.

[01:27:03] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:27:04] [SPEAKER_03]: There's gotta be something better to do in Wilmington.

[01:27:06] Okay.

[01:27:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't wanna go see...

[01:27:09] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[01:27:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, Wilmington.

[01:27:13] [SPEAKER_03]: I would imagine they have a lot of breweries.

[01:27:14] [SPEAKER_03]: North Carolina loves to brew beer.

[01:27:16] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, and Sunset Sail Tours.

[01:27:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Sunset Sail Tours.

[01:27:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Sunset Sail Tours.

[01:27:19] [SPEAKER_03]: See, I really think they filmed other shit there.

[01:27:21] [SPEAKER_04]: Bike rides.

[01:27:22] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, you can go.

[01:27:24] [SPEAKER_03]: I like a battleship every now and then.

[01:27:25] There's a mansion.

[01:27:26] It's a plantation.

[01:27:27] [SPEAKER_03]: A plantation?

[01:27:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, we are in the South.

[01:27:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[01:27:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[01:27:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Everything's a plantation at one point, I assume.

[01:27:34] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll find some shit for you to do.

[01:27:35] [SPEAKER_03]: All right, termites.

[01:27:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I hope you guys are having fun.

[01:27:39] [SPEAKER_03]: And we'll see you down the road.

[01:27:41] [SPEAKER_04]: Get ready for...

[01:27:42] [SPEAKER_04]: Help me.

[01:27:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I got all kinds of...

[01:27:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Hardly anyone comes to this house because I'm in the back of the cove and it's

[01:27:49] [SPEAKER_03]: kind of dark.

[01:27:50] [SPEAKER_05]: That's not very inviting.

[01:27:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and I don't have any decorations.

[01:27:54] [SPEAKER_03]: I just want to see who's brave enough to turn the corner of the driveway because I'm

[01:27:57] [SPEAKER_03]: kind of hidden back in the corner of the cove.

[01:27:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And if you're brave enough, you're going to hit gold.

[01:28:02] [SPEAKER_03]: I got all kinds of shit.

[01:28:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.

[01:28:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Want a beer?

[01:28:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I want to put it all in a bowl and then go meet Dorf for beers and tell the kids, take

[01:28:12] [SPEAKER_03]: one, and yes, I have a camera on you.

[01:28:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And just see what happens.

[01:28:18] [SPEAKER_04]: The raccoons will take you.

[01:28:19] [SPEAKER_03]: No shit.

[01:28:20] [SPEAKER_03]: The raccoons.

[01:28:21] [SPEAKER_03]: My God, there's a whole family.

[01:28:22] [SPEAKER_03]: I keep thinking of that lady where there was a hundred.

[01:28:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I know, and these cats don't do anything.

[01:28:28] Look at her.

[01:28:30] [SPEAKER_03]: All right, termites.

[01:28:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Are we ready?

[01:28:32] Bye bye.
