1:22
Speaker 2: Yeah not today. Today is Thanksgiving and it's six point
1:27
Speaker 2: thirty in the morning and I am freaking cold out
1:30
Speaker 2: here in this forest. What do you say Happy Thanksgiving
1:34
Speaker 2: to everybody when we get there. Remember that everybody that's
1:38
Speaker 2: there today is one hundred percent of volunteer and that
1:43
Speaker 2: that says a lot to me inside my soul, because
1:47
Speaker 2: it really it kind of reminds me of the days
1:49
Speaker 2: of radio, where you know, the one thing about a
1:51
Speaker 2: radio person is that they would sacrifice their life in
1:54
Speaker 2: order to be on, you know, the air and stuff
1:56
Speaker 2: like that, because that's just who we are as performers.
1:58
Speaker 2: And even today when you go in and do the
2:00
Speaker 2: research on what radio is, there are so many people
2:03
Speaker 2: that are doing free radio internet radio because they just
2:06
Speaker 2: want to fill that vibe. They want to just go
2:09
Speaker 2: and become who it is that they think that they
2:11
Speaker 2: still are, and they are still those people. It's just
2:14
Speaker 2: that the corporations don't look at us as being what
2:18
Speaker 2: it is that we are. But here we go into
2:22
Speaker 2: the store, we go on Thanksgiving Day. I really did
2:25
Speaker 2: look at my wife this morning and I said, how
2:28
Speaker 2: did I use to do morning radio when I would
2:30
Speaker 2: be up at two forty five am to be on
2:32
Speaker 2: the air by six am, and getting up to go
2:36
Speaker 2: to a grocery store. And Thanksgiving Day is proving to be,
2:40
Speaker 2: Jesus God Almighty, one of the worst experiences. And did
2:44
Speaker 2: I feel this way in years past? I don't know.
2:48
Speaker 2: I don't know. But you know there are retail people
2:50
Speaker 2: all over the planet that are dealing with this because
2:53
Speaker 2: if you're not doing Black Friday, which is tomorrow, the
2:56
Speaker 2: day after Thanksgiving, you're open today to get as many
2:59
Speaker 2: sales you can in. You got to get those numbers up.
3:02
Speaker 2: That's what it's all about. It is all about those
3:03
Speaker 2: damn numbers. And if you don't get those numbers up,
3:07
Speaker 2: you're gonna pay for it January through March. So what
3:11
Speaker 2: do you think it is about holidays where you want
3:14
Speaker 2: to go in late and your normal departure time is
3:19
Speaker 2: not really recognized. You said, ah, I'm going to go
3:21
Speaker 2: in late. There's not a lot of people out there
3:23
Speaker 2: because it's a holiday. And then you hit every fricking
3:27
Speaker 2: red light. And I look at shit like this, and
3:31
Speaker 2: what I see is that this is how my day
3:33
Speaker 2: is going to be today. I'm gonna hit more blocks,
3:35
Speaker 2: more walls, more dips in the highway, and it's like, okay,
3:39
Speaker 2: so how can we correct this situation? And it starts
3:42
Speaker 2: out here trying to get to the store on time,
3:45
Speaker 2: and it ain't gonna happen.
3:46
Speaker 3: I'm gonna walk in.
3:47
Speaker 2: It's severely late because I chose to leave late because
3:52
Speaker 2: I thought, oh, it's a holiday, it's a holiday. I
3:55
Speaker 2: don't have to get there, you know, as early as
3:58
Speaker 2: I normally do, which is ten or fifteen minutes early.
4:00
Speaker 2: It's a holiday. And then I'm hitting every goddang red light.
4:05
Speaker 4: Did you ever remember that movie War Games with Yes, yeah,
4:10
Speaker 4: I put military technology into computer, yeah hands, and I
4:16
Speaker 4: would be afraid to have something like that happen.
4:19
Speaker 2: You put AI.
4:22
Speaker 4: Put military capability in the ais hands.
4:26
Speaker 3: Well, it's gonna be really freaky weird.
4:27
Speaker 2: Jeff Dea that here in twenty twenty five, you know,
4:31
Speaker 2: five years from now you and I are going to
4:33
Speaker 2: be talking and and it's gonna be such a different world.
4:37
Speaker 2: And its saying it just blows me away on how
4:40
Speaker 2: how far we have gone just in one year.
4:42
Speaker 3: Man. Please, if I don't see you before you.
4:45
Speaker 2: Go over there to the Philippines, please have a great
4:48
Speaker 2: time over there, have a good one, Jeff, Happy Thanksgiving.
4:52
Speaker 4: Happy Thanksgiving.
4:53
Speaker 2: You bet God, this was a blessing to see you today.
4:55
Speaker 2: Thank you so much, sir. It's barely eight o'clock in
4:58
Speaker 2: the morning and they're all already planning things out for
5:02
Speaker 2: how things are going to close at two o'clock in
5:04
Speaker 2: the afternoon. I mean, we've got people in here because
5:06
Speaker 2: we have this gigantic five k race is gonna be
5:08
Speaker 2: taking place very soon. It's called the Turkey Trot. And
5:11
Speaker 2: I'm sure if you go back to past ctcs's they've
5:14
Speaker 2: loach with a lot of focus on them. I see
5:16
Speaker 2: they Holy crap, I make it sound like there's a
5:19
Speaker 2: lot of people involved in this shit that we do
5:21
Speaker 2: in CDCs. Anyway, eight o'clock in the morning, I'm here
5:28
Speaker 2: because the people that I see all the time are
5:31
Speaker 2: coming in, all of our guests, And you have no
5:33
Speaker 2: idea how much of a child I feel like when
5:35
Speaker 2: I'm sitting here seeing them and hugging them, and a
5:38
Speaker 2: new guy, Bill was looking at me saying, he says,
5:40
Speaker 2: this is your shit, dude, this is your shit. You
5:43
Speaker 2: like doing things for the community, he says. Everybody else
5:45
Speaker 2: here doesn't get what you're doing. I don't either. Hey,
5:48
Speaker 2: come on, it's acting. It's acting right, right. It's a
5:53
Speaker 2: pretty typical Thanksgiving day at a grocery store, and that
5:56
Speaker 2: is is that we're all here early because you don't
5:58
Speaker 2: even know who's going to be coming in as specially
6:00
Speaker 2: when it comes to the turkey trot and not the trots,
6:03
Speaker 2: please not the trots. I don't know if you know
6:05
Speaker 2: what that is, because being from Montana, my mom would
6:07
Speaker 2: always say, you got the trotz today. Don't bring anything
6:10
Speaker 2: like that up. But anyway, what's happening is is that
6:13
Speaker 2: if you're not on the front desk, if you're not
6:15
Speaker 2: on a register, your job and you can go back
6:17
Speaker 2: on later episodes or earlier episodes of CTCs. We're blocking
6:21
Speaker 2: and we're also stalking. So I've never been one of
6:24
Speaker 2: those people that has ever stalked before, so this is
6:27
Speaker 2: very new to me. To put stuff up on the shelves,
6:29
Speaker 2: which you'll be gone before you know it. My mission today,
6:33
Speaker 2: or the first stocking job, is to put away the ramen.
6:36
Speaker 2: And I looked at the manager and I said, really,
6:38
Speaker 2: you want me to do the ramen? Do you have
6:41
Speaker 2: any idea who I am as a regular person. Ramen
6:44
Speaker 2: is my life. If you have no product by the
6:47
Speaker 2: time I get done, that's your fault. Because Ramen is
6:50
Speaker 2: my life. I eat it like it's candy and oh
6:53
Speaker 2: my god. So this is the greatest Thanksgiving because I'm
6:56
Speaker 2: in the Ramen section putting it away, but I'm going
6:59
Speaker 2: to eat it. Building a total fuck up with this
7:02
Speaker 2: Raman man. I opened up a box that people buy.
7:04
Speaker 5: Well, so I know that you normally don't stop no pills, no.
7:09
Speaker 5: My boss came by and I was like, yeah, he's
7:11
Speaker 5: uh doing some stocking for me.
7:13
Speaker 2: And I was like what and he goes yeah, and
7:15
Speaker 2: I go okay. And then and then I.
7:16
Speaker 3: Come down here and you can't find where this shit
7:19
Speaker 3: called ramen, Ramen noodles war roots on noodles.
7:23
Speaker 5: Yeah, you hit me a small pack and you go,
7:26
Speaker 5: there's a numble lead forward on the show.
7:28
Speaker 6: And then I'm looking and I'm like, you just open
7:30
Speaker 6: the case. We sell them by the case. Jesus, I'm
7:34
Speaker 6: gonna put it out there. I realize it's open, and
7:37
Speaker 6: you so you think it's gonna come up to the front. Ye,
7:39
Speaker 6: it's open.
7:39
Speaker 3: It's open, and we know nothing's wrong with it. But
7:42
Speaker 3: I can just see ten people bringing this ship up
7:44
Speaker 3: and going.
7:44
Speaker 2: This is open. You say ten people. I can see
7:46
Speaker 2: the one person that's gonna come up that's always here.
7:48
Speaker 2: It's gonna be that lady with the glasses that all
7:50
Speaker 2: carry me the wrong price the egg.
7:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, she wears the gloves and yeah yeah, and her
7:56
Speaker 3: husband's walking around with it.
7:57
Speaker 2: Yeah.
7:58
Speaker 5: She tells him what the fucking and he goes, yes, dear, yes, dear,
8:02
Speaker 5: And he's like, oh, stand over there, and he goes, yes, dear.
8:04
Speaker 3: I mean I'm fussy whips and I don't know if
8:06
Speaker 3: I'm not much.
8:06
Speaker 2: Well, she's not proud. I'm not gonna pay being out
8:11
Speaker 2: here with the food. You know, people are asking what
8:13
Speaker 2: are you working on Thanksgiving for? And you know, you
8:16
Speaker 2: sit there and say, well, it's because I enjoyed being
8:18
Speaker 2: with the people you. I like being with you. I'm
8:20
Speaker 2: with you all year long. Now I get to see
8:22
Speaker 2: you on a holiday and that's very special to me.
8:24
Speaker 2: And people just kind of looked at me, very strange.
8:27
Speaker 2: And then just a couple of seconds ago, there were
8:28
Speaker 2: like five firefighters that walked up here and I said,
8:30
Speaker 2: how are you guys doing today? Oh, we're just out
8:32
Speaker 2: here saving lives. Okay, Now, did I ask them what
8:35
Speaker 2: are they doing on Thanksgiving? Hell? No, I did not,
8:38
Speaker 2: because it's like they're out here to save lives. And
8:40
Speaker 2: I had to be a smart ass though, like a
8:42
Speaker 2: radio distract. I said, I'm I'm in the business of
8:44
Speaker 2: saving lives too. If people don't eat, they're gonna die.
8:47
Speaker 2: And they kind of laughed. They kind of did so
8:50
Speaker 2: maybe a half a golf clap. Dude, I had a
8:54
Speaker 2: very bad foot paw. Yeah, So I go up to
8:57
Speaker 2: the manager and a nighttime manager. Yeah, I said, uh,
9:01
Speaker 2: I've got your number two for you. She looks to
9:04
Speaker 2: me kind of strange like, and I realized what I said,
9:07
Speaker 2: I've got your number three for you. And so I'm
9:10
Speaker 2: sure she thought the same thing that I did. Once
9:11
Speaker 2: I said it right, and she goes, I don't know
9:13
Speaker 2: what you're talking about. I said, I'm doing your number two,
9:15
Speaker 2: and then I put myself in another person for ship. So, yeah,
9:18
Speaker 2: exactly did she figure it out?
9:21
Speaker 3: Finally, finally, when I said I'm over here in the
9:23
Speaker 3: super grow, Yeah, I'm.
9:24
Speaker 5: Telling you right now, if you don't come up here
9:25
Speaker 5: with us, you're going to be stuck stopping the whole fuck.
9:27
Speaker 2: Oh I don't want to do that.
9:28
Speaker 3: Well, that's you're going to run you into the ground.
9:30
Speaker 3: So come up here? Why you come up here? I
9:34
Speaker 3: don't ever get out of there?
9:35
Speaker 2: Why the thing is when you're in a row like that,
9:38
Speaker 2: the can't help me back kill and all of a
9:41
Speaker 2: sudd when I get your sup done that? So I'm
9:43
Speaker 2: set up on number That's what I mean. You'll be
9:44
Speaker 2: out there to a clock. Yeah. I think it's the
9:47
Speaker 2: first time that this will be the first number two
9:49
Speaker 2: I've ever had my five years at a grocery store,
9:56
Speaker 2: and I've never heard of this term until today. Wally,
10:00
Speaker 2: we don't wall here at this grocery store. What do
10:03
Speaker 2: you think that is walling? And if you're part of
10:05
Speaker 2: a grocery store that you probably know exactly what I'm
10:07
Speaker 2: talking about. Do you know about this walling thing? Oh yeah,
10:11
Speaker 2: we talked about that already. I said, you know, we're
10:13
Speaker 2: not you're not supposed to wall, right? Yeah?
10:15
Speaker 3: So that I mean is that because it's just dangerous
10:18
Speaker 3: or what? Why why don't you walk?
10:19
Speaker 2: Well? You know the first reason.
10:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, if there's an inventory, which.
10:27
Speaker 7: There's not right now, but it's an inventory, the company
10:31
Speaker 7: that comes in it gonna pull and look around, so
10:34
Speaker 7: it's easier for them to go, hey, I got the Oh.
10:40
Speaker 2: That's one reason. Okay. The other reason is.
10:44
Speaker 4: It helps her when she comes by to see how
10:47
Speaker 4: much she's got, so she needs to order.
10:49
Speaker 2: He's the order person that it's not a man.
10:51
Speaker 3: If you that, well, she is a she's okay, yeah,
10:54
Speaker 3: she's a bender.
10:55
Speaker 2: She orders. She's not like the story.
10:58
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, but she she orders re hear to park god,
11:01
Speaker 3: and so it helps her.
11:03
Speaker 2: Like if it's all stacked up like yep, yep, and
11:06
Speaker 2: then you can't get to the back, you can't. I
11:10
Speaker 2: get it, I get it, I get it. We've talked
11:13
Speaker 2: about Dave a million times. Dave is the guy that
11:15
Speaker 2: likes to judge people. He's a preacher, but he likes
11:17
Speaker 2: to judge people. I don't know, maybe you get a
11:18
Speaker 2: license when you become a preacher to judge people. Don't
11:21
Speaker 2: know what the answer answer is on that. But so
11:24
Speaker 2: he's he's having a big problem with me today and
11:26
Speaker 2: the fact that I'm not wearing the regular store shirt.
11:32
Speaker 2: And the reason why is because they said we could
11:33
Speaker 2: be festive. You could wear whatever you want, just make
11:35
Speaker 2: it tasteful, and I'm wearing my hair down because my
11:37
Speaker 2: hair is in the middle of my back and I'm
11:39
Speaker 2: not wearing it up.
11:40
Speaker 3: Oh my god, he's having a cow So Dave says,
11:44
Speaker 3: I'm wild today. Yeah, he I guess he's not used
11:48
Speaker 3: to wearing a black shirt.
11:50
Speaker 2: I just see the funds somehow. He's trying to joke
11:54
Speaker 2: about it.
11:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, when people like him jokes about stuff like that,
11:57
Speaker 3: there's something behind that.
11:58
Speaker 2: Well here's here's Can I tell you what I think
12:00
Speaker 2: it is and the psychology behind it. You're gonna think
12:03
Speaker 2: I'm conceited, but I'm gonna go that route. I'm in radio,
12:06
Speaker 2: so therefore I can have an ego. So that's a
12:08
Speaker 2: legal license. I think it's because at sixty.
12:10
Speaker 3: Three, I have all this hairs and he does not.
12:15
Speaker 2: Well, that's possibility, I don't think. I think he's a
12:19
Speaker 2: straight and judge and you're an easy target today, Yeah,
12:23
Speaker 2: because I was on his road.
12:24
Speaker 5: Yes, well, just in general. Yeah, everybody didn't wear their
12:28
Speaker 5: Thanksgiving stuff like you did. Oh, so you shoul stick
12:31
Speaker 5: out a little more.
12:32
Speaker 2: And I didn't know that one can do. Yeah, yes,
12:34
Speaker 2: right there, that's all right. You can do it with
12:40
Speaker 2: Christmas stuff as well as football stuff.
12:42
Speaker 3: So yeah, so I've got stuff for every one of
12:44
Speaker 3: those days.
12:45
Speaker 2: All right, here we go the one o'clock hour. This
12:48
Speaker 2: is it, the final hour before we close the doors.
12:50
Speaker 2: And I always tell people all year long, I will
12:52
Speaker 2: tell people, if you want the best humor on the planet,
12:55
Speaker 2: you've got to come to the store the last hour
12:57
Speaker 2: before Thanksgiving before we officially close doors, because it is
13:01
Speaker 2: hilarious to watch people rush into the store to get
13:05
Speaker 2: what they say is only one item and they end
13:08
Speaker 2: up getting ten fifteen different items. Or you have people
13:10
Speaker 2: that are coming back over and over again because they
13:13
Speaker 2: keep forgetting things. And so you look at me and go, man,
13:16
Speaker 2: back again, I'll see it in about ten minutes, said,
13:17
Speaker 2: please don't do that to me. Don't curse it. But
13:20
Speaker 2: this is it, man, this is where we break it
13:22
Speaker 2: all down and get them out of here by two
13:24
Speaker 2: o'clock because, as my boss says, we want to be
13:27
Speaker 2: home by two oh one. Really wow, all right, we're
13:31
Speaker 2: going to do our best. There's been about four people
13:34
Speaker 2: today that have said, man, you're hyper today. Your energy
13:37
Speaker 2: level is really high today. In fact, one of my mods,
13:40
Speaker 2: manager on duty, came up to me and he goes,
13:42
Speaker 2: he says, man, you're in a great mood today. Huh,
13:44
Speaker 2: I'm thinking, what the fuck? Why is everybody making a
13:48
Speaker 2: comment about the way that I'm acting or reacting? I
13:52
Speaker 2: don't know, because I've always called myself the greatest actor
13:54
Speaker 2: you'll ever meet, which means that pretty much. Okay, if
13:57
Speaker 2: I'm being really happy and upbeat, is he acting? My
14:01
Speaker 2: wife could figure it out. I mean, the people that
14:03
Speaker 2: are in radio could figure out. They're going, Oh, you're
14:05
Speaker 2: faking it today. I get what you're doing. But for
14:08
Speaker 2: some reason, these people keep telling me, oh, you're really
14:10
Speaker 2: hyper today. I don't think I'm hyper. All right. I'm
14:14
Speaker 2: at the door. We'll be closed in twenty five minutes,
14:17
Speaker 2: and this store is full. I mean, this is my
14:20
Speaker 2: fifth Thanksgiving here. This is really a very crowded store.
14:23
Speaker 2: Compared to that, we have about twenty five more minutes. Okay, yeah,
14:25
Speaker 2: thank you.
14:26
Speaker 3: Thank you.
14:27
Speaker 2: All Right, we're rocking, we're rolling. We want them out
14:29
Speaker 2: of the store as quickly as possible, not to be
14:31
Speaker 2: a jerk or an ass like that's what we have
14:33
Speaker 2: to do is so that you know, we get this
14:35
Speaker 2: thing moving, because like I said on the speaker, I said,
14:38
Speaker 2: we're all going to go celebrate Thanksgiving. Today, we're all
14:41
Speaker 2: that you hear that we're all going to go celebrate
14:43
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving officially closed on Thanksgiving twenty twenty five, and the
14:48

14:54
Speaker 2: It's like, what have you been doing for the past

14:59
Speaker 2: be a jerk by asking sonscience. I'm trying to move.
15:01
Speaker 1: Home, Please do not move. There's more CTCs on the
15:05

15:24
Speaker 2: Transition Walk day number two. At a four thirty eight
15:28
Speaker 2: degrees inside this forest today, I am bundled up as
15:32
Speaker 2: if I'm living in the state of Montana all over again.
15:35
Speaker 2: I mean, when you live in the south like this
15:37
Speaker 2: and it gets down to thirty eight, you're so used to,
15:40
Speaker 2: you know, nice warm weather and summertime sunshine and beautiful
15:45
Speaker 2: temps in the fall, and then you get slammed with
15:48
Speaker 2: one of these cold fronts. Who on what is considered
15:51
Speaker 2: to be black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. So now
15:56
Speaker 2: before I go into CEUs have to sit there and
15:58
Speaker 2: wonder what are people's mindset's going to be like. Well,
16:00
Speaker 2: here's my prediction. This is several hours before I go in,
16:04
Speaker 2: but here's my prediction. The number of people that are
16:07
Speaker 2: gonna be bringing stuff back because they overbought. I understand
16:12
Speaker 2: why they overbought. My wife is very guilty of that.
16:15
Speaker 2: You know, you have fifteen people coming over to the
16:17
Speaker 2: house for Thanksgiving and you overbuy, and so what am
16:20
Speaker 2: I gonna do with it? Everybody's gone, are we gonna
16:23
Speaker 2: eat it? Are we gonna use it?
16:23
Speaker 3: What are we gonna do with it?
16:25
Speaker 2: I know, let's take it back to the grocery store.
16:28
Speaker 2: And what do we do? We give you the candy
16:30
Speaker 2: coated plastic bathroom mere smile, I'll see you and see
16:33
Speaker 2: us right now. I am so effing cold, it's freezing
16:36
Speaker 2: out here. But you keep moving forward because that's what
16:39
Speaker 2: you do. I've always been that guy that does kind
16:43
Speaker 2: of a stupid stunt. Well it's not really a stupid stunt.
16:46
Speaker 2: I like to take chances and to create some sort
16:49
Speaker 2: of conversation and says they said, hey, look, man, you
16:51
Speaker 2: can actually dress up in your favorite football team uniform.
16:55
Speaker 2: You can wear the jerseys, you can you can do
16:56
Speaker 2: anything to help promote sports, you know, for the next
16:59
Speaker 2: week or so, and then as we get closer to Christmas,
17:02
Speaker 2: then we can start wearing Christmas stuff as long as
17:04
Speaker 2: it's very tasteful. But what did I do this time around?
17:06
Speaker 2: That's going to be different? This can and I have
17:08
Speaker 2: no idea if people even pick up on this. My
17:11
Speaker 2: name tag doesn't say CT it's got my real name.
17:14
Speaker 2: I want to see how long it takes someone to
17:17
Speaker 2: sit there and go, Jesus, dude, you're wearing your real
17:21
Speaker 2: name tag. Tristan was the very first one, not even
17:25
Speaker 2: two and a half minutes. I mean she was already going,
17:26
Speaker 2: oh my god, you're bearing your real name. Oh my god.
17:30
Speaker 2: And then people had to come and tell me that
17:32
Speaker 2: how weird I was on Thanksgiving yesterday and they're sitting
17:35
Speaker 2: there going, well, you should have just been here with him.
17:37
Speaker 2: He was just being weird. I don't remember being weird.
17:40
Speaker 2: Maybe a little energetic, is that what I said? Oh god,
17:43
Speaker 2: I'm rebuilding my reputation. We made kind of a fun
17:47
Speaker 2: issue yesterday about wearing my hair down and looking more
17:50
Speaker 2: of a everyday common guy who just happens to have
17:53
Speaker 2: very long hair. And one of the things that we
17:57
Speaker 2: talked about Dave we did and the way that Dave
17:59
Speaker 2: likes to judge and to talk about people that don't
18:02
Speaker 2: fit into what he thinks should be a normal professional atmosphere.
18:05
Speaker 2: But yet the store has invited us to just kind
18:08
Speaker 2: of just lay a little bit lower, don't be so professional,
18:10
Speaker 2: you know'll be a little bit more one on one today.
18:13
Speaker 2: My God in Heaven, I mean, here's this guy comes
18:16
Speaker 2: up to me. Oh, so this is the CT. I
18:19
Speaker 2: know your hair is back, you're dressed up better. Oh
18:23
Speaker 2: you're not looking like a vagrant today?
18:27
Speaker 7: What is it?
18:27
Speaker 2: What is it I'm doing wrong here?
18:29
Speaker 3: I mean it's like.
18:30
Speaker 2: Little snide remarks like that, even if it's a frickin' joke.
18:35
Speaker 2: That's how you will take the air out of a
18:37
Speaker 2: set attires in a heartbeat headed down to the mid
18:41
Speaker 2: to lower twenties tonight. And that means one thing. There's
18:44
Speaker 2: a lot of people of homelessness that are coming to
18:46
Speaker 2: the grocery store, and what they're doing is they're not
18:48
Speaker 2: going and your truer into a certain area to keep
18:51
Speaker 2: nice and warm. What they're doing is they're coming in
18:53
Speaker 2: and they're camping out in our bathrooms. The thing is
18:56
Speaker 2: is that they are single bathrooms and they've been in
18:59
Speaker 2: there now forty five minutes to an hour. Just you know,
19:02
Speaker 2: I don't know what they're doing. I really don't know
19:03
Speaker 2: what they're doing. But that's what they're That's how life
19:06
Speaker 2: is right now.
19:07
Speaker 5: Oh.
19:08
Speaker 2: This has created a major debate between the employees as
19:11
Speaker 2: well as the manager on duty because the manager on
19:14
Speaker 2: duty is saying, there's nothing I can do.
19:15
Speaker 3: Guys, there's absolutely nothing I can do.
19:18
Speaker 2: You know, this is this is the way that it goes.
19:20
Speaker 2: He says, you know, people have the light to privacy
19:22
Speaker 2: in a bathroom, but they've been in there for thirty
19:24
Speaker 2: five to forty minutes. There's nothing I can do. What
19:27
Speaker 2: would you do in a situation like that? What would
19:30
Speaker 2: do if the bathrooms they were all singles, if they
19:33
Speaker 2: were all locked up this law? Would you at least
19:36
Speaker 2: knock on the door? Would you would you say? Hey,
19:38
Speaker 2: are you okay? How would you approach a situation like that?
19:41
Speaker 2: Right now, we got a debate between the employees because
19:44
Speaker 2: we've all got to take a pee we've got a
19:48
Speaker 2: major fat's going down right now. We need to get
19:49
Speaker 2: security in this building. Meeting Hi, this is CT. We
19:52
Speaker 2: need to get a security officer. We've got a situation. Okay,
19:55
Speaker 2: thank you, but by all right. The situation is is
19:58
Speaker 2: that she really hates it our general manager, and feels
20:02
Speaker 2: that she can walk out of here right now with
20:04
Speaker 2: a basketful of groceries and she'll say, we'll just call
20:07
Speaker 2: it even well, that's it, we'll just call it. But
20:09
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take these groceries home. And of course you
20:11
Speaker 2: can't do that, you know. The law is a law
20:13
Speaker 2: is a law. So we're gonna get security overly here
20:14
Speaker 2: and figure out what's gonna happen. She's very adamant about this,
20:17
Speaker 2: and she's very vocal, and she's very angry. I gotta
20:21
Speaker 2: get an update on what was going on with that
20:22
Speaker 2: theft going down. Security did arrive here and the woman
20:26
Speaker 2: got up off the electronic cart and just started screaming
20:29
Speaker 2: at security, you're buying my groceries. You're gonna buy them.
20:33
Speaker 2: I can't afford them. You guys can't afford them. You're working,
20:36
Speaker 2: so therefore you need to buy these for me, because
20:39
Speaker 2: that's what a good Christian would do. Oh boy, oh yeah.
20:43
Speaker 2: That's security guard looked at her dead in the eyes
20:46
Speaker 2: literally and said, hmm, it's not coming out of my wallet.
20:49
Speaker 2: If you don't have the money, you gotta go. And
20:52
Speaker 2: I'm not talking about in ten minutes. I'm saying you
20:54
Speaker 2: gotta go now. And she did. Oh the thefts are
20:57
Speaker 2: big too nice, Oh my god. Won right after another
21:00
Speaker 2: after another after another, this lady sporting a I don't
21:04
Speaker 2: want to say it because I'm gonna get bad mail.
21:05
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get some trolls on me here sporting a
21:08
Speaker 2: hat that says something that she probably was not, but
21:11
Speaker 2: she's gonna try to get some empathy and sympathy and compassion.
21:14
Speaker 2: She comes up and she's got this whole, entire gigantic
21:17
Speaker 2: cart full of meat and she says, A, I need
21:21
Speaker 2: you to hold this until tomorrow. I said we can't
21:25
Speaker 2: do that, and she goes, well, I tried to go
21:27
Speaker 2: out the door, but somebody stopped me. He said he
21:30
Speaker 2: was the manager of the store, and he stopped me
21:32
Speaker 2: and said I got to deal with it here. And
21:35
Speaker 2: like I look at I said, were you trying to
21:37
Speaker 2: steal it? Well, I wouldn't call it stealing, but I
21:40
Speaker 2: definitely do need this meat because I got a big
21:43
Speaker 2: family get together coming on and I need to get
21:46
Speaker 2: this in my refrigerator as soon as possible. Are you
21:48
Speaker 2: gonna pay for it? Well, no, no, I'm not.
21:52
Speaker 3: Well.
21:52
Speaker 2: I just want you to hold it until tomorrow, so
21:55
Speaker 2: I'll pay you tomorrow for it. But I want to
21:58
Speaker 2: take it home tonight.
22:00
Speaker 1: Please do not move. There's more on the way. Fighting
22:03
Speaker 1: a radio crutch?
22:04
Speaker 2: What the hell is that?
22:06
Speaker 1: And more jokes from our buddy Jim Hey, thanks for
22:11
Speaker 1: coming back to CTCs. Fighting a radio crutch and more
22:16
Speaker 1: jokes from Jim. Let's get started.
22:19
Speaker 2: Transition Walk day number three out of four. Listen like
22:22
Speaker 2: thirty two degrees out here. My god, I think that's
22:26
Speaker 2: my radio crutch right now. Every time I turn around
22:28
Speaker 2: it is, my god. Ah, I gotta get over those things.
22:32
Speaker 2: I don't have a program director or a radio station
22:34
Speaker 2: consultant's tell me that kind of crap. We need to
22:36
Speaker 2: sit you down for a moment because you're saying, my
22:39
Speaker 2: god a lot. That's gonna upset some people who don't
22:43
Speaker 2: believe in the source. Okay, well, I'm having a tough
22:47
Speaker 2: day today, and the reason being Is that not because
22:49
Speaker 2: I've been in a studio pre programming things. Is I
22:51
Speaker 2: have a movie premiere next week, But I'm having a
22:53
Speaker 2: difficult time dealing with what's going on when it comes
22:56
Speaker 2: to these thefts in the store, they're getting really super personal.
23:00
Speaker 2: And I think I kind of predicted this a couple
23:02
Speaker 2: of weeks ago. I said it's going to get worse
23:04
Speaker 2: as we get closer to the holidays and everybody's EBT
23:07
Speaker 2: cards are not doing what they're so used to doing.
23:10
Speaker 2: And now that I've heard word that the government is
23:12
Speaker 2: breaking down and immigrants who tend to use a lot
23:15
Speaker 2: of resources from this country in order to survive. I mean,
23:19
Speaker 2: I get it. I've got compassion, I've got empathy. I
23:21
Speaker 2: get your side of the deal. But when you fall
23:24
Speaker 2: witness to it and you begin to try to figure
23:28
Speaker 2: out what is your testimony here, that right there is
23:32
Speaker 2: my struggle because it's like, dude, let me help you
23:35
Speaker 2: get a job here so that you don't have to
23:38
Speaker 2: be in this position, and you know, and then people
23:41
Speaker 2: around me are all going to shut up, just shut
23:45
Speaker 2: up and ride the wave. Wow, there's got to be
23:48
Speaker 2: a solution here. There's a new movie coming out it's
23:51
Speaker 2: called five Knighted Freddy's Part two. Oh yeah, the second
23:54
Speaker 2: one already because that first one was so big. So
23:57
Speaker 2: my wife and I it's gonna be kind of fun
24:00
Speaker 2: to do this. I've got a box, a pizza box
24:02
Speaker 2: that comes from that actual movie, and what we've put
24:05
Speaker 2: in there is a chocolate pizza. The pepperoni is red chocolate.
24:10
Speaker 2: Oh yeah. We're gonna share it with our team players today,
24:14
Speaker 2: and you know, you can only hope that they get
24:16
Speaker 2: the jest of it all is that, for the love
24:18
Speaker 2: of God, look at it as being the dessert that
24:20
Speaker 2: it is and not the box that it came in.
24:22
Speaker 2: But if you're freaked out because you know it's five
24:24
Speaker 2: nice and Freddy's, oh yeah, then you deserve to have
24:27
Speaker 2: the crap scare it out of you. Pointing in at
24:30
Speaker 2: the store. Now with the pizza, the chocolate pizza that is,
24:34
Speaker 2: find out what everybody thinks right off the bat, hopefully,
24:36
Speaker 2: hopefully they'll enjoy.
24:37
Speaker 3: It by ready for it.
24:44
Speaker 2: How about that chocolate? Whoa chocolate? It is?
24:54
Speaker 3: No, it's not pizza, what is it chocolate? Well?
24:59
Speaker 5: Like, what is that crunchy?
25:00
Speaker 4: Yeah?
25:00
Speaker 2: Eat?
25:00
Speaker 3: Didn't you find out it's good?
25:03
Speaker 2: That's what it is.
25:03
Speaker 8: It's where did you get it from?
25:05
Speaker 3: I want to Oh, really, what's d what something? What's
25:10
Speaker 3: the rid?
25:10
Speaker 7: Yeah?
25:11
Speaker 3: Chocolate like drops?
25:13
Speaker 2: Oh, it's one of the nice cutting. I do a
25:20
Speaker 2: thing called defrag writing before I come to the store.
25:22
Speaker 2: It's basically asking yourself the questions and questioning the answers,
25:26
Speaker 2: and it allows you to build some space up in
25:28
Speaker 2: your mind, body, and soul because we're just overtaken by
25:30
Speaker 2: content and just so much going on at the same time.
25:33
Speaker 2: So when I walked in the store today, even though
25:34
Speaker 2: I had the chocolate, I was in a great mood,
25:37
Speaker 2: and you know, you just pick up on the energy,
25:38
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, you know, you find yourself
25:41
Speaker 2: trying to repair as quickly as possible.
25:42
Speaker 3: And then when your co workers are saying, do you
25:44
Speaker 3: guys do this?
25:45
Speaker 2: Do you guys do this? And I say, shit, you
25:48
Speaker 2: got to give me a chance to catch up here.
25:49
Speaker 2: I just got here. And then all of a sudden,
25:52
Speaker 2: you know, then all these these people bringing stuff back,
25:54
Speaker 2: which I said would happen because it is Thanksgiving, but
25:58
Speaker 2: my god, they're doing it at eighty and ninety dollars
26:00
Speaker 2: at a time. It's a pet peeve man. It's a
26:02
Speaker 2: pet peeve of mine. You made the choice to buy it,
26:05
Speaker 2: keep it. What's your question?
26:08
Speaker 8: Talking about the lady that's the movie star in earlier years?
26:14
Speaker 2: Do you know what the differences between crazy and the centric?
26:19
Speaker 8: Not two million dollars?
26:20
Speaker 2: Is that what it is?
26:23
Speaker 3: That's like I say. People will always go say so, okay,
26:26
Speaker 3: I'll go, so how's your day to day?
26:28
Speaker 2: It's just good? I said, why can't it be fantastic?
26:31
Speaker 2: And they go, well, I'm having a good day. I said,
26:33
Speaker 2: you know what the differences between good and fantastic? About
26:35
Speaker 2: this much?
26:37
Speaker 3: That's about here? It is, you know, winning is a choice.
26:46
Speaker 2: Food comes up here all the time. What are you
26:47
Speaker 2: doing well with?
26:48
Speaker 3: Christian?
26:49
Speaker 2: And I've been eating it all day? And they like,
26:51
Speaker 2: would you want the beer?
26:52
Speaker 9: We figured we'd bring the crackers in there.
26:53
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right. Can you get the cheese?
26:55
Speaker 2: Can you don't have? The US meant that? That's right?
26:57
Speaker 3: Where'd you get that? Anyways?
27:00
Speaker 2: I got this in Key West while I was a kid.
27:02
Speaker 9: He's a bank robber.
27:03
Speaker 3: He's a bankro You still yeah, yeah, that one didn't explode.
27:06
Speaker 2: Huh yeah, no, this one didn't explode.
27:08
Speaker 4: Wow.
27:09
Speaker 8: And when we lived in Key West. There was one
27:10
Speaker 8: bank in key West, the first National Bank of Key Wes.
27:12
Speaker 3: That was it.
27:13
Speaker 2: That was it.
27:13
Speaker 8: If you want to have a bank account, you went
27:15
Speaker 8: there because that's it. My dad was friends with the
27:19
Speaker 8: bank brands managers.
27:21
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go, well, no, you gotta go.
27:24
Speaker 9: You gotta go take over Bramber.
27:26
Speaker 2: In seven minutes.
27:27
Speaker 3: What are you going to know? Are you go outside?
27:30
Speaker 9: Whenever I come back, you go take over Framberg. And
27:32
Speaker 9: then whenever you come back, Marshall will be leaving beautiful
27:35
Speaker 9: and after that you will be going to your break.
27:38
Speaker 9: But I'm here till eight so and I've already done
27:40
Speaker 9: Chills Anne lottery, So all I have to do is
27:42
Speaker 9: count the big money.
27:43
Speaker 3: See how you are?
27:44
Speaker 8: She's talking pretty managerial.
27:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's almost like Tom.
27:46
Speaker 9: Brady, like you give him a game plan, you know,
27:49
Speaker 9: so it hits just right. She knows, so it hits
27:52
Speaker 9: just right. So you're like, I'm remember what we supposed
27:54
Speaker 9: to do.
27:55
Speaker 2: Baseball is a simple game of the Ballah, I did?
28:00
Speaker 2: He he has more did? Yeah?
28:03
Speaker 5: Yeah.
28:06
Speaker 2: I've been known to compare life at customer service to
28:10
Speaker 2: that of a five K race. Now I don't know.
28:12
Speaker 2: I mean, I've been in the five k race before.
28:14
Speaker 2: But I don't know about other people, but to me,
28:17
Speaker 2: your voice becomes really super loud in the beginning part
28:19
Speaker 2: of the five k and toward the last maybe maybe
28:22
Speaker 2: half mile. And the same thing is true about c
28:25
Speaker 2: CS is that is that all of a sudden, you
28:27
Speaker 2: know you're you're in this great shape of mind, and
28:29
Speaker 2: then whoosh, without warning, you're going in a different direction
28:33
Speaker 2: and you've got to still continue to finish that race.
28:35
Speaker 2: You know that that finish line is somewhere out there.
28:38
Speaker 2: Are you going to make it? That's the question? Are
28:40
Speaker 2: you going to challenge yourself to do it? Trust me?
28:43
Speaker 2: On past episodes of CTCs, I've talked a lot about
28:47
Speaker 2: the aged Greek woman. I mean what I mean by
28:51
Speaker 2: age days is that she's a silver haired Greek woman
28:53
Speaker 2: that comes in with a serious, serious attitude, and you
28:57
Speaker 2: know she's always trying to wheel and deal at a
28:59
Speaker 2: grocery store. You know, she's trying to barter the system,
29:01
Speaker 2: is what she's trying to do. If I buy two
29:03
Speaker 2: of these, can I get a third and a fourth
29:05
Speaker 2: one free? No, you can't do that. So what's happened
29:08
Speaker 2: is is that in the past couple of weeks here.
29:11
Speaker 2: I just made it a point that it's like, I
29:13
Speaker 2: don't want to be that person that when I see
29:15
Speaker 2: her in the store, I walk a different direction. So
29:17
Speaker 2: and the way that I make that work is that
29:19
Speaker 2: I go up to her and I find something new
29:22
Speaker 2: out about her. And so tonight I find out that
29:25
Speaker 2: we have so many friends that are the same, and
29:28
Speaker 2: it's like, you mean to tell me, I've been at
29:30
Speaker 2: this effing store for four years and she has been
29:34
Speaker 2: that close to many people that I know. That just
29:37
Speaker 2: blows my ass away. Transition Walk day number four out
29:42
Speaker 2: of four, the first weekend after Thanksgiving. We're headed toward
29:45
Speaker 2: Christmas in a brand new year and a Super Bowl Sunday. Jesus,
29:49
Speaker 2: everybody is really locked in on what's going on when
29:53
Speaker 2: it comes to the NFL to find out who's going
29:54
Speaker 2: to be getting into the playoffs. So that's always fun
29:56
Speaker 2: and exciting when you're in CS because people are sporting
29:59
Speaker 2: their jerseys. Oh man, it's freezing inside this forest. I've
30:03
Speaker 2: been talking about that all week, having wait forty six
30:05
Speaker 2: right now, no sunshine sky looks like snow in all honesty.
30:09
Speaker 2: In fact, by Tuesday, thank God and Heaven, Oh there,
30:12
Speaker 2: I go again. You see that we talked about the crutch.
30:15
Speaker 2: What did I just say? Thank God in Heaven, Oh
30:17
Speaker 2: my God. In fact, when I went back to do
30:20
Speaker 2: a transfer of old CTCUS episodes onder the computer, this
30:25
Speaker 2: was like four or five months ago, there I was,
30:28
Speaker 2: I was saying, oh my God, Oh my God, God
30:31
Speaker 2: in heaven, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
30:33
Speaker 2: blah blah. Too many crutches. Man, I am so sorry
30:37
Speaker 2: one million times. I do apologize. You've got a whole
30:40
Speaker 2: new team on the floor today in the way that
30:42
Speaker 2: these are the people that I'm used to working with
30:44
Speaker 2: on a Sunday. And so I thought, okay, well, I'm
30:46
Speaker 2: going to do the name tag thing again that I
30:47
Speaker 2: did on Friday, where I'm going to use my real
30:49
Speaker 2: name and see how many times people recognize that I'm
30:52
Speaker 2: using my real name instead of C two. And so
30:56
Speaker 2: that's what's happened here now is that we're about an
30:58
Speaker 2: hour and fifteen minutes into this. Nobody on my team.
31:01
Speaker 2: Nobody on my team has even recognized that I'm using
31:04
Speaker 2: my real name on the name tag, whereas Tristan it
31:07
Speaker 2: only took like thirty seconds.
31:09
Speaker 3: Man, I'm a little disappointed in you.
31:10
Speaker 4: Bill.
31:12
Speaker 2: Well whatever, it's one thirty or three thirty seven. Yeah,
31:15
Speaker 2: I've been here now in thirty seven minutes. Yeah, but
31:18
Speaker 2: look at the damn name to have said anything? Got
31:21
Speaker 2: it covered up? No, you can't go that route. That
31:25
Speaker 2: look like ct LO.
31:27
Speaker 3: That's ther whole name.
31:27
Speaker 2: Now, I can take you what you do. It was
31:29
Speaker 2: your other one? Yeah, no, no, no, I was just
31:31
Speaker 2: doing to screw with your mind.
31:33
Speaker 3: Well, if you'd had it on the outside of your coat,
31:34
Speaker 3: I might have given me saw the guest side. Oh
31:37
Speaker 3: you went to your real name. I heard someone say
31:40
Speaker 3: something about your name, but I didn't. I mean the
31:44
Speaker 3: names that I know of.
31:45
Speaker 2: I didn't know which two names I got more than
31:47
Speaker 2: two names?
31:48
Speaker 3: Fine, but I was like, what the fuck? I didn't
31:50
Speaker 3: think think about it? And then why did you wear that?
31:53
Speaker 5: Yes?
31:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you know me, somebody doesn't like be called claience.
31:59
Speaker 3: I hear it come out of you my four times
32:01
Speaker 3: and you breathe.
32:02
Speaker 2: It's a joke.
32:03
Speaker 4: I know.
32:04
Speaker 3: But if they were to call me that in business
32:06
Speaker 3: and would offend it.
32:07
Speaker 2: Oh no, absolutely no, I get that, But I mean
32:10
Speaker 2: I don't know.
32:10
Speaker 3: It's like if you were to call my house and
32:12
Speaker 3: ask for that name, I'd say, who is this exactly? Well,
32:15
Speaker 3: it's like somebody calls and asks for William, I'm.
32:18
Speaker 2: Collector.
32:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, like fuck you, William's not here.
32:26
Speaker 2: So there's really a reason why I'm not wearing the uh,
32:29
Speaker 2: the fancy five jersey or even a football shirt like
32:32
Speaker 2: I had on earlier this week. Well, you told me,
32:34
Speaker 2: you said you're not a same player. Well that's my
32:36
Speaker 2: that's my smart ass answer that that's.
32:37
Speaker 3: My radio guy coming out in me Oka.
32:39
Speaker 2: Well, the truth of the matter is is that on
32:42
Speaker 2: Friday night, somebody came up to me in self check
32:45
Speaker 2: out because I was over there while somebody was in
32:46
Speaker 2: the restroom, and they said, I didn't know that you
32:48
Speaker 2: even worked here, wow, because they didn't recognize our normal
32:52
Speaker 2: shirts and so. And I really took that to heart
32:55
Speaker 2: because I know she assumed that because I had a
32:57
Speaker 2: regular shirt on, that I was not an employee at
32:59
Speaker 2: the store.
33:00
Speaker 3: So she stood there waiting for somebody.
33:02
Speaker 2: To come over.
33:02
Speaker 3: I say, no, I'm here, I'm that guy.
33:04
Speaker 2: I'm here to help you.
33:05
Speaker 3: Well, I'm sure that happens the one out of like
33:07
Speaker 3: ten people, But I'm itsn't often knock me off.
33:10
Speaker 5: Balance, so the company approved it, so, I mean, I'm
33:13
Speaker 5: sure that was taken into account, all right.
33:15
Speaker 2: And the real reason why I didn't put it on
33:17
Speaker 2: today was because I just flat out for good Well,
33:20
Speaker 2: you know that's it's called muscle memory, man, you just
33:23
Speaker 2: do the same stuff.
33:25
Speaker 3: We're not used to being able to have a fucking choice. Yeah,
33:28
Speaker 3: so when we did it, you know, like.
33:30
Speaker 5: If you notice half, I think I'm the only person
33:33
Speaker 5: out of like sixty people.
33:34
Speaker 3: That wore it well that Friday, I was the only one.
33:36
Speaker 2: It is the only one. But I do have my
33:39
Speaker 2: my store song on though. I mean, yeah, at.
33:41
Speaker 3: Least I'm wearing the five.
33:42
Speaker 2: That's kind of gross.
33:45
Speaker 7: Man.
33:46
Speaker 2: It is ice cold out here. I mean it is
33:48
Speaker 2: raining temperature in the mid to lower forties, and what
33:53
Speaker 2: happens at this time of year is that people leave
33:55
Speaker 2: their lights on their car batteries die. So I guess
33:58
Speaker 2: who's on jumper cable patrol right now? Oh my god.
34:01
Speaker 2: And of all things, they parked pretty close to well,
34:04
Speaker 2: it's all the way down at the other end of
34:05
Speaker 2: the damn mall. So you know, you can only hope
34:07
Speaker 2: to God that when I get down to that side
34:09
Speaker 2: of the mall, you know that he's going to be
34:11
Speaker 2: sticking out like a sore thumb, so I can help jumping.
34:13
Speaker 2: Or I came out here to freeze my balls off
34:15
Speaker 2: for nothing. So but yeah, this time of year we
34:17
Speaker 2: do this a lot. We get the jumper cables and
34:20
Speaker 2: we get them on their way so that something doesn't
34:22
Speaker 2: go wrong. Okay, here we go around the parking lot
34:26
Speaker 2: one more time to see if we can get through
34:28
Speaker 2: all that traffic, because I had come in through a
34:31
Speaker 2: different location and I needed to kind of go in
34:34
Speaker 2: head on rather than side by side. And so now
34:37
Speaker 2: the goal is to find out if I can even
34:39
Speaker 2: do that. Well, it could be very interesting, I mean,
34:43
Speaker 2: because what they do is they park in these very
34:45
Speaker 2: tight spots where you you know that. I think that's
34:47
Speaker 2: the difference between me and and other drivers, the fact
34:50
Speaker 2: that maybe it's Montana thing that you just try not
34:53
Speaker 2: to park in a place where somebody can't help you
34:55
Speaker 2: because you don't know when you're going to need somebody.
35:02
Speaker 3: All right, Take two, I wonder, I still don't think
35:07
Speaker 3: it's long enough.
35:08
Speaker 2: But then meeting down there to give him.
35:11
Speaker 3: Mmmm uhh well, hang, it's me long enough.
35:17
Speaker 5: Uh huh.
35:19
Speaker 3: Let's let's try something you feel here.
35:24
Speaker 2: Oops, No, no, they're not gonna be up there. Thanks.
35:30
Speaker 2: We're gonna try some other table cords here, hang up.
35:32
Speaker 2: All right, we've got a starting car. That's good. That's
35:34
Speaker 2: always good news when we get good job.
35:37
Speaker 3: Man, there's some teamwork for us.
35:38
Speaker 2: Huh uh huh. I do think it's your alternator?
35:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you I remember the last time I talked
35:45
Speaker 3: with you, you were.
35:46
Speaker 2: Having problems with it. I'll let you disconnect from your side.
35:49
Speaker 3: All right, Well, at least you know I've got the
35:51
Speaker 3: long one.
35:52
Speaker 2: It's a big giant battery more.
35:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, two hundred ninety dollars lure. Yeah, I'm the Trump.
35:59
Speaker 2: Well you are fit, sir. Well up in Montana.
36:11
Speaker 3: You gotta have a jumper cables, everybody.
36:16
Speaker 2: I just got the shock on my life. I go
36:18
Speaker 2: out there and help that guy get his car jumped
36:20
Speaker 2: and everything. Ye, so I had to drive around the
36:22
Speaker 2: parking at total of three times. Its weak that you
36:24
Speaker 2: get close enough for it. Ended up pulling out my
36:26
Speaker 2: own jumper cables because there was long because of the
36:29
Speaker 2: RV and stuff. And then what did I do? I
36:31
Speaker 2: come in the building.
36:32
Speaker 3: I instantly go in the bathroom, cold hands on my
36:35
Speaker 3: dep Oh, my god, it's.
36:39
Speaker 2: Like wake up call one oh one. Oh jeez, I
36:43
Speaker 2: mean talk about instant shrinkage.
36:44
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
36:47
Speaker 2: A world that never changes. Christmas music the stuff we're
36:52
Speaker 2: playing in the store right now. Love the weather outside
36:55
Speaker 2: nice and cold, rainy, feels like snow. Christmas music, Oh,
36:58
Speaker 2: puts you definitely in the mood. But it's the same
37:01
Speaker 2: old crap my parents used to play in our house
37:05
Speaker 2: on forty five's and eight track tapes when I was
37:07
Speaker 2: a kid. It's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a second,
37:11
Speaker 2: you mean to tell me that nobody beyond Bing Crosby
37:15
Speaker 2: sang the song or Rootolph the Red Nose Reindeer. It's
37:17
Speaker 2: the same thing that was on my mom's forty five
37:21
Speaker 2: Ay yeye yy, I mean give me some Mariah Carrey.
37:24
Speaker 2: You know that Christmas song that she has turned into
37:26
