Speaker 1: It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
0:22
Speaker 1: with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley, along with
0:25
Speaker 1: Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. Today is Thursday May twenty second,
0:32
Speaker 1: two thousand and twenty five. I've been loosely following the
0:38
Speaker 1: New Orleans jail escape all week and as of right now,
0:44
Speaker 1: the last story that I saw said five of the
0:48
Speaker 1: ten New Orleans jail escapees have been caught. So five
0:53
Speaker 1: out of ten have been caught so far, which means
0:56
Speaker 1: five are still on the loose. And twenty thirty years
1:02
Speaker 1: ago this story might have struck fear into the surrounding
1:08
Speaker 1: areas of a jail or prison escape. But it's modern times,
1:14
Speaker 1: and instead of most people being fearful of escape convicts
1:19
Speaker 1: running around loose, we're now taking bets on who's going
1:24
Speaker 1: to get caught and who's not. A cryptocurrency trading company
1:30
Speaker 1: called Polymarket started taking bets on Tuesday over which escaped
1:36
Speaker 1: New Orleans inmates would be captured by Friday, So prisoner
1:44
Speaker 1: parlays are now a thing.
1:48
Speaker 2: My question is if you're if you're one of the guys,
1:54
Speaker 2: do you bet on yourself then turn yourself in that
1:58
Speaker 2: way you have money when you get out.
2:01
Speaker 1: That's an interesting, uh way to look at it.
2:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a very looking at it.
2:09
Speaker 1: What if it's an Indian way of looking at it?
2:11
Speaker 2: I'm like, you know what, what, what's what am I going
2:13
Speaker 2: for right now?
2:17
Speaker 1: Is it possible that this is a clever ruse on
2:20
Speaker 1: the part of the authorities to get them to turn
2:23
Speaker 1: themselves in, because, like you said, if they bet on
2:26
Speaker 1: themselves to turn themselves in to have money on the
2:30
Speaker 1: other side when they eventually get out legally, then maybe
2:33
Speaker 1: that's a trick by the authorities.
2:35
Speaker 3: No, no, no, what you do is you put in
2:38
Speaker 3: a parlay, you turn your you're other people in.
2:43
Speaker 4: Do you win some real money?
2:45
Speaker 2: See, that's the right way of doing it, right, that's.
2:50
Speaker 1: It makes sense. I mean, you know we you know
2:54
Speaker 1: one or two people that get sent off to federal prison,
2:56
Speaker 1: and we certainly know how to make some money off
2:59
Speaker 1: of that, don't we. These are all obviously just in theory,
3:04
Speaker 1: But I like that, And maybe that's the other clever
3:07
Speaker 1: side of it is authority said, hey, if we say
3:11
Speaker 1: or have a company announce we're taking bets, then they'll
3:14
Speaker 1: start turning each other in to try to make money
3:18
Speaker 1: on the gambling side.
3:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, I really think you'd be able to. I think
3:21
Speaker 2: you'd be able to figure out who it was that
3:22
Speaker 2: did it, Like if you're walking past their cell and
3:24
Speaker 2: I was like, is that four ramens and a kit cat?
3:28
Speaker 2: Son of a bitch? Does he have real kool aid? Bastard?
3:37
Speaker 2: That's right, he got us pinched.
3:41
Speaker 5: Uh.
3:41
Speaker 1: There is new information. By the way, a maintenance worker
3:44
Speaker 1: was arrested at the New Orleans jail where the ten
3:46
Speaker 1: inmates escape. He's accused of helping the inmates get out
3:50
Speaker 1: of the jail. I don't know if any bets were
3:53
Speaker 1: taken on that, but inmates Jermaine Donald and Derrick Groves
3:59
Speaker 1: are sitting at twenty two chance of capture by Friday Antwine, Massey,
4:04
Speaker 1: Leo Tate, and Linton Van Buren are sitting at twenty
4:07
Speaker 1: three percent. Corey Corey Boyd has the most expensive odds
4:12
Speaker 1: at ninety nine cents on yes and ninety eight cents
4:16
Speaker 1: on no. So I guess I guess he's your I
4:22
Speaker 1: guess Corey Boyd is the long shot.
4:25
Speaker 2: Okays your he's your seabiscuit?
4:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, how how are they handicapping this?
4:38
Speaker 1: I knew you'd have questions. I knew at the Gambler
4:41
Speaker 1: in the tree House Trade turn Home, I knew you
4:43
Speaker 1: would have questions about this. And I don't have all
4:45
Speaker 1: the answers I'm with because I want to know money
4:48
Speaker 1: line and all that.
4:49
Speaker 4: Do they have like windtail breaks like you know what
4:53
Speaker 4: what show?
4:56
Speaker 2: Yeah?
4:58
Speaker 1: No, it absolutely makes sense because if you're going to
5:00
Speaker 1: handicap the inmates from a gambling point of view, how
5:05
Speaker 1: do you do that? Do you consider their prior?
5:08
Speaker 4: Like?
5:08
Speaker 1: Do you do you consider their criminal history? Are the
5:11
Speaker 1: more violent guys more likely or less likely to avoid capture?
5:18
Speaker 3: I mean, is this a new cottage industry? I mean,
5:20
Speaker 3: is there going to be a norm Hitskis of jail breaks?
5:25
Speaker 2: No?
5:28
Speaker 1: Norm's Guide.
5:31
Speaker 2: You got Steven A. Smith out there telling people how
5:33
Speaker 2: terrible they are at jail breaking. Yeah, and I can
5:40
Speaker 2: tell like the reason when Trey started asking these questions,
5:44
Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, he's gonna call his bookie at
5:46
Speaker 2: the break the next break. We think it's so sweet, dollar,
5:49
Speaker 2: like give me void ninety eight.
5:57
Speaker 1: See. Three of the escapees were captured one day after
6:01
Speaker 1: the escape. A fourth was captured Monday. But this particular
6:07
Speaker 1: article I have here doesn't really go into the details
6:12
Speaker 1: on the handicapping or the methodology in the odds of
6:17
Speaker 1: certain inmates being captured by Friday or not. Maybe it's
6:21
Speaker 1: just pure luck.
6:23
Speaker 2: And then the maintenance guy, like, you don't know if
6:25
Speaker 2: he was like threatened with harm or threatened with like
6:28
Speaker 2: you know, once we do get out, we're going to
6:29
Speaker 2: target your family, So you don't know what his motivation was.
6:32
Speaker 2: So I mean to arrest him immediately. I mean, I'll
6:35
Speaker 2: take him in for questioning first and see if he
6:38
Speaker 2: was like complicit in them leaving.
6:41
Speaker 1: Well, that may have happened. Actually, the inmates escaped on Friday,
6:46
Speaker 1: and the maintenance worker accused of helping them escape was
6:49
Speaker 1: arrested Tuesday. He allegedly turned off the water to the
6:53
Speaker 1: toilet after being instructed by one of the prisoners. They
6:56
Speaker 1: then ripped off the toilet and escaped through the hole behind.
7:02
Speaker 1: So if they escape on Friday and the maintenance worker
7:07
Speaker 1: is arrested on Tuesday, I'm pretty sure they went through
7:10
Speaker 1: the normal steps and they probably got a confession out
7:13
Speaker 1: of him.
7:14
Speaker 3: Well, let's also from what I read, this jail has
7:18
Speaker 3: failed inspections, has not passed an inspection since twenty thirteen.
7:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, twelve years.
7:25
Speaker 4: Yeah, Nolan's.
7:29
Speaker 1: Good old Louisiana.
7:30
Speaker 4: Man, I'm surprised I just.
7:31
Speaker 2: Didn't open the door and walk out. See you guys later,
7:36
Speaker 2: see your friend, see you Sam.
7:37
Speaker 4: Just keep walking.
7:39
Speaker 1: I don't know why some of these look, you don't
7:42
Speaker 1: need to make jails and prisons, you know, elaborate to
7:49
Speaker 1: keep the inmates in because in my mind, a jail or,
7:53
Speaker 1: I guess a prison in Louisiana would be pretty easily
7:57
Speaker 1: fortified by just sticking it in the middle of a
8:00
Speaker 1: swamp surrounded by gators. You don't even need walls or fences,
8:04
Speaker 1: just say, if you feel lucky, it'd be a lot
8:09
Speaker 1: cheaper than constructing you know certain uh, you know, massive facilities.
8:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, but necessity is the mother of invention. So you
8:17
Speaker 2: don't know what these guys will will do or create
8:21
Speaker 2: to escape, Like depending on how long you're in there for.
8:23
Speaker 2: Like if you're in there for like you know, a
8:25
Speaker 2: warrant for speeding, and you're out in a couple hours.
8:28
Speaker 1: Well then you don't go to the gator invested prison.
8:32
Speaker 2: Or prison prison. Yeah that's true. Noough, and uh yeah,
8:35
Speaker 2: but I mean people, people will go to extreme measures.
8:38
Speaker 2: So even if you have like one person escaped Alcatraz right.
8:42
Speaker 1: They believe there's been no confirmation on that there were
8:45
Speaker 1: three guys that that attempted an escape and they were
8:48
Speaker 1: never found. They were assumed drowned in the San Francisco Bay, except.
8:54
Speaker 2: For one guy that they have a picture of years later.
8:57
Speaker 2: Conspiracies overwhelmed. They have one a picture of a guy
9:01
Speaker 2: in like the late seventies, like next to like a
9:04
Speaker 2: camaro that is almost identical to the guy that broke
9:07
Speaker 2: out in like the late fifties. So you never know.
9:09
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, gators, I gotcha. That's a that's a
9:14
Speaker 2: risk I wouldn't want to take. They hurt bad.
9:19
Speaker 4: Have you ever watched swamp people?
9:22
Speaker 2: No?
9:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know that. I think the gator thing
9:26
Speaker 3: is really all you think it is. You know if
9:29
Speaker 3: for people from Louisiana, they.
9:31
Speaker 2: Oh, that's true.
9:32
Speaker 4: Swamp puppies.
9:41

10:06
Speaker 1: But even now you can surprise me. I had no
10:11
Speaker 1: idea you could finance a roof. It's a good thing,
10:15
Speaker 1: especially if for some reason insurance is not involved and
10:18
Speaker 1: you don't have you know, twenty thirty forty thousand dollars
10:21
Speaker 1: just lying around. Maybe you want to explore some options
10:24
Speaker 1: and you guys have that ability.
10:26
Speaker 7: Yeah, Dan, we brought that on a couple of years back,
10:29
Speaker 7: and believe it or not, it really has helped some
10:32
Speaker 7: folks protect their home, make sure it doesn't leak, and
10:36
Speaker 7: keep it from having large, large expenses from interior and
10:40
Speaker 7: attic problems. So the financing is there. We have a
10:43
Speaker 7: unique link on our website you can go, you put
10:47
Speaker 7: your information in. It actually is a soft inquiry, so
10:52
Speaker 7: it doesn't hit your credit with a hard you know,
10:55
Speaker 7: credit hit that some people are scared of. And it
10:57
Speaker 7: can gives you you know, five six, eight options, whichever
11:01
Speaker 7: one helps you the best. So it gives you different terms,
11:04
Speaker 7: gives you different interest rates, different payments. Some of them
11:07
Speaker 7: are zero interests for a certain amount of time, so
11:09
Speaker 7: you may qualify for paying it out and you don't
11:12
Speaker 7: have to worry about interest. So all kinds of options there.
11:14
Speaker 7: And it also helps with deductibles. Everybody's deductibles are high
11:18
Speaker 7: right now. They're ten thousand dollars, eighty five hundred dollars.
11:22
Speaker 7: I saw one yesterday it was seventeen thousand dollars. So
11:25

12:35
Speaker 1: He's trade. That's Raj And that was one of the
12:38
Speaker 1: most terrifying commercial breaks I've had in quite a long time.
12:43
Speaker 1: Have you have you, guys, ever had to sneeze while
12:46
Speaker 1: you're going to the bathroom? Does it frighten you as
12:49
Speaker 1: much as it does me?
12:52
Speaker 3: No, I can honestly say I have never put that
12:55
Speaker 3: much thought into it.
12:57
Speaker 1: Well, I just did because I went to the bathroom
13:01
Speaker 1: and I'm going pp and I start to feel a
13:04
Speaker 1: little tickle in my left nostril, the indication that I
13:09
Speaker 1: am about to sneeze, and it scared the hell out
13:12
Speaker 1: of me because there's a number of things that could
13:16
Speaker 1: happen if the sneeze gets out. One is I peel
13:19
Speaker 1: over the bathroom and that's gonna be embarrassing. I gotta
13:21
Speaker 1: clean that up. Number Two is I cut off the
13:26
Speaker 1: pee and sneeze. And because I've cut off the front end,
13:32
Speaker 1: that pressure is gonna have to go somewhere, and the
13:35
Speaker 1: sneeze could force open the back valve and something worse
13:38
Speaker 1: may happen. Or if I try to swallow and keep
13:42
Speaker 1: the sneeze in, I'm worried about then my throat exploding,
13:47
Speaker 1: which has happened by the way people have This has
13:50
Speaker 1: been documented when someone tries to like muffle a sneeze,
13:53
Speaker 1: their throat will basically blow out. So I'm the only
13:57
Speaker 1: one that gets afraid when sneezing going to the bathroom.
14:02
Speaker 4: Damn.
14:03
Speaker 3: I say this as the oldest person on this show.
14:06
Speaker 3: What the is happening to your body?
14:08
Speaker 4: Yeah?
14:10
Speaker 1: I don't know.
14:11
Speaker 2: Do you go to a doctor that's not in a
14:13
Speaker 2: public storage unit?
14:15
Speaker 4: Like?
14:18
Speaker 1: Look, I have random thoughts, and I have a tendency
14:21
Speaker 1: to share my random thoughts with you guys. And the
14:24
Speaker 1: more times that I do it, the more times I
14:26
Speaker 1: regret it, because you guys always make it seem like
14:29
Speaker 1: there's something wrong with me. All I'm saying is all
14:32
Speaker 1: I'm confessing is that I was going to the bathroom
14:35
Speaker 1: and I felt the knees coming on, and I was
14:37
Speaker 1: worried what would happen if I tried to quell the knees.
14:41
Speaker 2: So why wouldn't you just immediately sit down.
14:44
Speaker 1: Because then I still got to cut off the peepie
14:46
Speaker 1: and that hurts.
14:47
Speaker 2: What if you're sitting down on the toilet and you
14:50
Speaker 2: have to sneeze, why would you have to cut things off?
14:52
Speaker 4: You could?
14:54
Speaker 1: I was going number one, so I was standing.
14:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you felt the sneeze coming on, you're like, oh,
15:00
Speaker 2: to sit down, then I.
15:01
Speaker 1: Would have had to cut off my peepee stream to
15:04
Speaker 1: turn and then sit.
15:06
Speaker 2: You could.
15:07
Speaker 1: Cutting off the stream hurts. You want me to do
15:12
Speaker 1: you want me to say that again? You can a
15:14
Speaker 1: c slater it and sit on the toilet backwards. Yeah,
15:19
Speaker 1: I'm giving a toilet a lap dance.
15:21
Speaker 2: Now, Yeah, get a book, put it on the on
15:23
Speaker 2: the back of the toilet.
15:24
Speaker 3: First of all, cutting off your stream is actually good
15:30
Speaker 3: for you.
15:32
Speaker 1: That's how you know.
15:33
Speaker 3: It's called the bladder exercise, and it's actually good for you.
15:37
Speaker 3: The only time I have ever really been vexed by
15:39
Speaker 3: a sneeze is when I had diarrhea.
15:43
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
15:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, now there you can you have a somewhat of
15:46
Speaker 3: a conundrum. Yeah, but just peeing, No, I I I'm
15:53
Speaker 3: worried about you.
15:53
Speaker 4: Dan.
15:54
Speaker 1: Ultimately, what I'm sharing with you is I don't like sneezing.
15:58
Speaker 1: I really don't know, joke, no bit. In all honesty,
16:02
Speaker 1: I do not like sneezing because I lose control of
16:05
Speaker 1: my body temporarily, and I don't like losing control of
16:07
Speaker 1: my body, and so I try to avoid sneezing when
16:11
Speaker 1: and where I can, and if I'm in the middle
16:14
Speaker 1: of going to the bathroom, I really want to avoid
16:17
Speaker 1: the sneeze for fear of what other things may happen.
16:21
Speaker 2: That is so weird. I'm learning, and I've known you
16:25
Speaker 2: for twenty plus years and we're learning something new about you,
16:28
Speaker 2: and very you might want to you might want to
16:32
Speaker 2: go to an E and T and be like, I
16:34
Speaker 2: have some legitimate concerns. I think I'm gonna blow something out.
16:39
Speaker 1: I am a powerful sneezer, so that's part of the concern.
16:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, I sneeze pretty loud too, But I mean I
16:46
Speaker 2: don't I don't hold it in. I don't do that
16:48
Speaker 2: thing like you've heard of people like the back of
16:50
Speaker 2: your head can explode. It's like eight thousand pounds of
16:52
Speaker 2: pressure per square inch every time you hold it and sneeze, right,
16:55
Speaker 2: So it's the same thing with like the throat blowing out.
16:56
Speaker 2: But I've never blew out the back valve on a
17:02
Speaker 2: on a sneeze, and I've never peed all over the bathroom.
17:06
Speaker 1: Have you ever sneezed while peeing?
17:09
Speaker 2: I can't remember.
17:11
Speaker 4: Maybe you wouldn't know it.
17:12
Speaker 1: If you had, you'd remember it. It would be burned
17:15
Speaker 1: into your memory.
17:17
Speaker 2: I may have I've coughed before. I don't know if
17:22
Speaker 2: that's in the same realm, but uh no, that's uh
17:26
Speaker 2: that's you might want to guess. You might want to
17:28
Speaker 2: go get some stuff looked at in order.
17:33
Speaker 4: I hope you never have to sneeze while Tara is
17:35
Speaker 4: pegging you.
17:35
Speaker 2: Jeez, that's a cleanup you don't want to do.
17:43
Speaker 1: That's actually my greatest defense.

18:47
Speaker 1: bad as the thought of sneezing while going to the
18:50
Speaker 1: bathroom scared me earlier, but this headline is still pretty scary.
18:54
Speaker 1: When you've seen as many movies as I have. A
18:57
Speaker 1: mysterious bacteria with unique abilities was to discovered on a
19:00

19:12
Speaker 1: that thing and until there's nothing left. I've seen enough
19:17
Speaker 1: movies to know what happens. That space station can never
19:20
Speaker 1: be allowed to return to this planet.
19:24
Speaker 4: They don't.
19:27
Speaker 1: The space stations, yeah, the people inside do, well, they
19:30
Speaker 1: shouldn't either. That's why I'm offering their families condolences now,
19:35
Speaker 1: because not only should that space station ever come back
19:37
Speaker 1: to Earth, the people on it shouldn't either. And I'm sorry,
19:40
Speaker 1: but that's just how I feel about it. And by
19:43
Speaker 1: the way, plenty of space chunk ends up back on Earth.
19:46
Speaker 1: Just ask the entire Russian Space Agency. There's stuff's been
19:52
Speaker 1: falling out of the skies for decades.
19:54
Speaker 4: Yeah.
19:55
Speaker 3: But being that it hits temperatures of like thirty five
19:56
Speaker 3: hundred degrees, I think, yeah, yeah, the bacteria, but the people,
20:02
Speaker 3: but it's China, so I mean they probably won't mm hmm.
20:05
Speaker 4: Yeah. But I'm with you.
20:08
Speaker 3: I I agree with your sentiment that a rare bacteria
20:12
Speaker 3: found in space is not something to be trifled with.
20:15
Speaker 1: No, it's not. We have trouble with Earth bacteria. You
20:17
Speaker 1: thought COVID was bad, how about space covid.
20:21
Speaker 2: What if it was a bacteria that was on the
20:23
Speaker 2: space station when it went up and it's now mutated
20:26
Speaker 2: even worse. Yeah, there you go, not worse than space.
20:32
Speaker 1: Look anything that we have on Earth. That if there's
20:37
Speaker 1: any sort of a virus or a bacteria that we
20:40
Speaker 1: have on Earth, and then while in space we discover
20:44
Speaker 1: a space version of that virus or bacteria, you know
20:49
Speaker 1: it's going to be way worse. Just like just like herpes,
20:53
Speaker 1: there's Earth herpes and then there's space herpes. You know,
20:55
Speaker 1: space herpes is going to be way, way worse. I
20:58
Speaker 1: know that because I saw it in Ice Pirates, the movie.
21:03
Speaker 2: Okay, was Ice Pirates too about Space Aids?
21:09
Speaker 1: They they couldn't they couldn't quite get the story right
21:12
Speaker 1: for Ice Pirates too.
21:14
Speaker 4: Space Crabs would have been far scarier.
21:21
Speaker 1: By the way. Ice Pirates starred Bob Ulrich.
21:26
Speaker 2: Oh Spencer yeah, oh yeah, okay the eighties Spencer for higher, Yeah,
21:32
Speaker 2: Spencer for hire from the eighties TV.
21:34
Speaker 4: Show and uh, what was this other show, Dantana?
21:40
Speaker 2: Oh maybe, yeah, yeah, I think it's right.
21:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, look at you, look at us being old.
21:47
Speaker 2: I know, uh and you you what was the excuse
21:51
Speaker 2: now for watching Ice Pirates.
21:56
Speaker 1: It was the eighties and it was a space kind
21:59
Speaker 1: of a movie that looked a little like Star Wars.
22:02
Speaker 1: And I was a child.
22:05
Speaker 2: There still okay, there's still nokes. No, no, I'm not
22:09
Speaker 2: letting you dismiss this with child like being in even
22:12
Speaker 2: me for twenty years.
22:13
Speaker 1: This is not the first time I've brought up the
22:15
Speaker 1: movie Ice Pirates in face.
22:17
Speaker 4: He was an orphan. I mean, it's not like they
22:19
Speaker 4: got the good movies.
22:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, My Foster Care was a television I.
22:23
Speaker 4: Mean, that's true. And Annie was about as good as
22:26
Speaker 4: it got.
22:30
Speaker 2: I did did for his own Daddy war Bucks.
22:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, I never had a Daddy war Bucks. I'm I'm
22:36
Speaker 1: still waiting for my son to come up tomorrow.
22:40
Speaker 2: Did you did they give Did they give your family
22:43
Speaker 2: a VHS copy of Ice Pirates when they traded you
22:46
Speaker 2: at the Walmart? Because I like, well, that's the consolation price, Like,
22:49
Speaker 2: here's your baby and a copy of Bob Orrick's Pirates
22:53
Speaker 2: on on data. Look a track to go with it.
23:01
Speaker 1: Ice Pirates had Bob Urick from Spencer for Hire. Okay,
23:07
Speaker 1: also had uh, let's see John Matusac who played Sloth
23:12
Speaker 1: in Goonies and NFL Great, he was in that as well.
23:16
Speaker 1: So with a special appearance by Space Herpes.
23:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, those two guys were in it because that's the
23:26
Speaker 2: point in their career. They're like, we need cash now.
23:33
Speaker 1: Look, it's either this ord or paid a advance loan. Yeah,
23:37
Speaker 1: so they went with the.
23:38
Speaker 4: Movie at that point. It was that our Circus of
23:40
Speaker 4: the Star with the Stars.
23:45
Speaker 2: Hey, Dick Van Patton ruled that, just to let you
23:48
Speaker 2: know it was not enough.
23:53
Speaker 1: Okay, I watched Circus with the Stars, but I don't
23:55
Speaker 1: remember Dick Van Patton doing the Trapees.
23:58
Speaker 2: Oh then you missed that year.
24:01
Speaker 4: He didn't do it.
24:02
Speaker 2: Well.
24:04
Speaker 1: I want to go back and watch that.
24:08
Speaker 2: They need to bring that back. I just want to
24:11
Speaker 2: see that again. Those are some good times, and you know,
24:14
Speaker 2: and it gave Charro work. If you want to show being.
24:17
Speaker 3: Old, Charo is still out there shaking her Cucci Coucci
24:22
Speaker 3: follow her on Instagram.
24:24
Speaker 2: She still looks the same she does. It's so creepy.
24:28
Speaker 1: I'm like, probably, I think she probably looks the same
24:31
Speaker 1: because she stayed so active on certain.
24:39
Speaker 2: That hip don't break. Yes, I wonder can we look
24:46
Speaker 2: up with the the the Rotten Tomatoes is on Ice Pirates.

26:01
Speaker 3: every there were newspapers in every town across the country
26:05
Speaker 3: and everyone had a movie reviewer.

26:32
Speaker 1: hour and a half.
26:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I'll just take your word for it.

27:18
Speaker 1: That's Treehouse on Air at gmail dot com. To advertise
27:21
Speaker 1: right here inside the Treehouse Show, I'm Daniel Maley along
27:25
Speaker 1: with Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. Today is Thursday May
27:29
Speaker 1: twenty second, twenty twenty five. It's been a while since
27:33
Speaker 1: I've been in therapy, and I've decided that I want
27:36
Speaker 1: to go back to therapy because I have lots of
27:38
Speaker 1: stuff on my mind, lots of stuff in my heart,
27:41
Speaker 1: and so I've decided to start seeing a new therapist.
27:45
Speaker 1: It's a controversial therapist with controversial methods, but I'm willing
27:53
Speaker 1: to explore for the sake of you know, mental wellbeing
27:57
Speaker 1: and mental health. So I would now like to share
28:00
Speaker 1: with you my new therapist. Give me just a moment.
28:07
Speaker 1: Mm hmmmmmmm uh, Trey, Raj, I would like you to
28:11
Speaker 1: meet my new therapist.
28:14
Speaker 8: Okay, me wish me knew when me was just a little.
28:18
Speaker 1: Monster cookie monster.
28:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's my favorite.
28:23
Speaker 1: He's one of my favorites too. Look, mental health is
28:26
Speaker 1: an important thing and I feel like everyone can benefit
28:29
Speaker 1: with some form of therapy. And seeing as how therapy
28:34
Speaker 1: is very expensive these days, I've decided to try him
28:36
Speaker 1: up at therapy on social media, and who better to
28:39
Speaker 1: go to than Cookie Monster And this is the first session.
28:43
Speaker 8: Three things me wish me knew when me was just
28:46
Speaker 8: a little monster. One things not always go you away
28:52
Speaker 8: and that okay, yeah, it's just how the cookie crumbles. Mmmm,
28:57
Speaker 8: cookie crumbles me. Two self care, Yeah, that that's very important. Yeah,
29:06
Speaker 8: make sure you treat yourself to you know, maybe like
29:10
Speaker 8: a like a little bubble bath or an eye mask, yeah,
29:15
Speaker 8: or some delicious cookies m me nam. And three just
29:22
Speaker 8: because something look like a cookie doesn't mean that it
29:27
Speaker 8: is cookie.
29:31
Speaker 4: Ooh um.
29:35
Speaker 8: Numb, but it still tastes pretty good.
29:40
Speaker 5: Yeah.
29:41
Speaker 1: So at the end there he is drawing a picture
29:45
Speaker 1: of a cookie and he eats it because it looks
29:47
Speaker 1: like a cookie. That's pretty profound advice.
29:52
Speaker 2: I have a couple of observations. Number one, he was
29:56
Speaker 2: painting a cookie and then he ate the paint. Your
30:01
Speaker 2: therapist is also suffering from a severe addiction to cookies,
30:04
Speaker 2: so he has obsessive compulsive disorder. And it also sounds
30:09
Speaker 2: like this is where the inspiration for how mister Miagi
30:12
Speaker 2: spoke could be.
30:16
Speaker 1: Look, I think it's important that you go to a
30:19
Speaker 1: therapist that understands your problems and has had problems that
30:22
Speaker 1: they too have overcome, and that's why they want to
30:25
Speaker 1: share their knowledge and skills with others. I like to
30:32
Speaker 1: think that because of Cookie Monster, I will have better
30:35
Speaker 1: mental health. The downside is I'm going to also need
30:39
Speaker 1: a nutrition coach because because a lot of his a
30:43
Speaker 1: lot of Cookie Monster's solutions to mental health are cookies. Yes,
30:48
Speaker 1: But at the same time, when I saw this the
30:50
Speaker 1: other day, I was like, you know what this. I
30:53
Speaker 1: feel just as good after thirty seconds of watching Cookie
30:56
Speaker 1: Monster than thirty minutes with an honest to god therapist.
30:59
Speaker 1: So I'm just going to lean into the muppet therapy
31:01
Speaker 1: for a while.
31:02
Speaker 4: Was was Oscar not available?
31:07
Speaker 1: He's full, He's not accepting new patients right now.
31:14
Speaker 2: Also, picture you just listening to this as a sage
31:19
Speaker 2: of therapeutic advice. And then the next thing I just
31:22
Speaker 2: see is stand in a bubble bath with an eye
31:23
Speaker 2: mask and a chocolate chip cookie.
31:25
Speaker 1: That's living my best life.
31:27
Speaker 2: That sounds like great self care.
31:29
Speaker 4: It does.
31:30
Speaker 2: I can dig that.
31:32
Speaker 1: And by the way, I don't even know if Oscar
31:34
Speaker 1: the Grouch does therapy, but I do know his life
31:37
Speaker 1: coaching business is really taken off.
31:42
Speaker 2: You know, He's he was the first one to have
31:44
Speaker 2: like a mobile service because you can you can take
31:46
Speaker 2: that trash can anywhere. Yeah, I would go with Muppet therapy.
31:54
Speaker 2: That sounds like something you know, we grew up watching it.
31:57
Speaker 2: It made sense. I wouldn't like, I wouldn't want to
31:59
Speaker 2: go to snuffle up I guess for advice. He just
32:01
Speaker 2: seems severely depressed and should be the top of Cookie
32:05
Speaker 2: Monsters client list.
32:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, if Sesame Street has a suicide helpline, you don't
32:10
Speaker 1: want snuffle Upagus on the receiving end.
32:16
Speaker 2: Although that episode would be hilarious.
32:23
Speaker 1: At that point, I'm pretty sure public broadcasting would absolutely
32:26
Speaker 1: be defunded.

33:16
Speaker 1: I'm dan, he's trade. That's raj. I don't think I
33:20
Speaker 1: ever knew that about Snufhalophagus Trey.
33:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, he was considered a figment of big
33:27
Speaker 3: birds imagination. And then I remember that at some point, uh,
33:32
Speaker 3: other people could see him, and then they had to
33:34
Speaker 3: apologize to Big Bird for thinking he was like making
33:36
Speaker 3: it up m h, and that that was the whole
33:39
Speaker 3: thing of Uh, you know, I forgot what the I
33:43
Speaker 3: forgot what the lesson was, but there was a lesson there.
33:46
Speaker 4: Oh.
33:46
Speaker 1: The idea is that sesame streets full of enablers.
33:51
Speaker 2: They're just always given, always given Cookie Monster the cookies.
33:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cookie Monster gets the cookies. They let Oscar say
33:57
Speaker 1: all the mean things to him without any sort of consequences,
34:00
Speaker 1: and they go on letting bid and they keep letting
34:03
Speaker 1: Big Bird think that he's got a big, fluffy, prehistoric
34:07
Speaker 1: looking friend.
34:08
Speaker 2: Well I think it was designed, if I'm right, it's
34:12
Speaker 2: for kids that had imaginary friends to not feel isolated.
34:16
Speaker 2: Like that's like big Bird has one too, so it's
34:19
Speaker 2: okay that I have one. And then everybody could see him.
34:22
Speaker 2: I don't know what the catalyst for that was. And
34:23
Speaker 2: then there's Missus snuffle up with us as well. They
34:26
Speaker 2: brought that in. So he's got he's got a part
34:29
Speaker 2: of like a wife and so.
34:30
Speaker 1: So Big Bird didn't just have an imaginary friend. He
34:33
Speaker 1: had an imaginary friend with an imaginary family.
34:38
Speaker 4: I think it's just the life.
34:40
Speaker 2: I don't think they I don't think they conceived during
34:43
Speaker 2: the run.
34:44
Speaker 1: The imaginary friend and his wife couldn't conceive. That's sad.
34:49
Speaker 2: It's Sesame Street. Combat had so many problems, it really did.
34:53
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I didn't. I don't know if I
34:55
Speaker 1: ever knew or realized because I was so young when
34:58
Speaker 1: I watched Sesame Street that snuffleuff I guess was Big
35:00
Speaker 1: Bird's imaginary friend. Uh, I don't. There's lots of things
35:03
Speaker 1: I don't remember since I was a child, so that's
35:05
Speaker 1: really not a shock. But I mean I had an imagine.
35:09
Speaker 1: I remember I had an imaginary friends as a small child.
35:12
Speaker 1: He did not look like a muppet. He just looked
35:14
Speaker 1: like another kid, which I'm now realizing I should never
35:18
Speaker 1: share things with you too. That the way you two
35:19
Speaker 1: are looking at me right now, I just need to
35:21
Speaker 1: shut up and never talk again to you.
35:23
Speaker 4: Got.
35:25
Speaker 1: Yes, I had an imaginary friend. I lived in the
35:27
Speaker 1: country and I was the only kid in my age
35:29
Speaker 1: bracket within ten miles.
35:32
Speaker 2: What was his name?
35:35
Speaker 1: I think it was Timmy, Timmy, Yeah, it was a Johnny.
35:38
Speaker 1: Maybe it was johnn Oh, I have to I'd have
35:40
Speaker 1: to ask my mom or my sister. I'm pretty sure
35:42
Speaker 1: that they they remember his name.
35:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, and where would you? Did you see him all
35:47
Speaker 2: the time? Just what I was playing, just when you're
35:50
Speaker 2: playing on like on out on the land of the
35:54
Speaker 2: uh the rural. Yeah? Yeah, so he could have possibly
35:57
Speaker 2: been murdered. And that's who you're saying.
36:01
Speaker 1: So you're saying I didn't have an imaginary friend, but
36:04
Speaker 1: that I had a ghost friend.
36:06
Speaker 2: Yes. Yes.
36:10
Speaker 1: The sad thing is is I can't immediately say that's
36:13
Speaker 1: stupid because.
36:14
Speaker 2: I don't know how was he, how was he dressed? Dan?
36:16
Speaker 4: What? What? What did?
36:17
Speaker 2: What did little Johnny?
36:19
Speaker 1: Little?
36:19
Speaker 2: What did a little Timmy Johnny where?
36:21
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know we're talking about this
36:23
Speaker 1: was this is forty years ago. I don't remember what
36:25
Speaker 1: the kid wore.
36:26
Speaker 2: Yeah you do, I can see it on your face.
36:28
Speaker 1: No, I really don't.
36:30
Speaker 2: Was there like an axe in his head?
36:32
Speaker 4: Or no, he.
36:35
Speaker 2: Didn't want have scared me? Did you play that fun
36:40
Speaker 2: game of Where are My parents?
36:44
Speaker 1: That was the thing he and I had in common.
36:50
Speaker 1: That's how we found each other in the field. That's
36:53
Speaker 1: when you know it's bad. When the ghost feel sad
36:55
Speaker 1: for you. It's like, yo, that's he probably did. That's
36:57
Speaker 1: probably why he's stuck around. He's like, man, I may
36:59
Speaker 1: be dead, but I feel bad for this a live kid.
37:02
Speaker 1: Me hang out with him? Blake g I Joe's and stuff.
37:06
Speaker 2: You played g I Jos with an imaginary friend? All right, You.
37:11
Speaker 1: Guys didn't have an imaginary friend.
37:14
Speaker 5: No.
37:15
Speaker 1: I couldn't even tray see. I figured Trey might because
37:17
Speaker 1: he was an only kid. I wasn't an only kid.
37:20
Speaker 1: My sister, though, was so much older than me that
37:22
Speaker 1: we didn't typically play together. So I figured, if of
37:25
Speaker 1: all of us, I thought Trey, you would have an
37:27
Speaker 1: imaginary friend as well.
37:28
Speaker 4: No, I had friends Dan.
37:34
Speaker 1: Rubbing in.
37:38
