James, Good morning, Pike. Australian billionaire Clive Palmer live. He's building
0:12
Titanic number two. Do you know the beginning words of this song? Pike?
0:17
Sing it to Yeah, Yeah, of course I do, sing it.
0:20
I grew up on this co This song raised me. Sing it to
0:23
me every my dream. Thank you, I see you, I feel you
0:30
too. I needed that this morning, Pike. It will embody an authentic
0:34
Titanic experience, this Titanic too. Internally, the ship is being designed to
0:37
have the same interiors and cabin layout as the original Titanic vessel. However,
0:42
it will integrate modern safety vessels. I would hope so woosie navigation methods and
0:48
the twenty first century technology to produce the highest level of luxurious comfort, such
0:52
as a diesel engine opposed to cole. That's probably if I'm going to go
0:56
on a Titanic rapplicat, I want to be able to go down and see
0:59
the guy's shovel in the hole. We're gonna get to shovel. Nobody's gonna
1:02
shovel that call you am well enough, you'd have to pay me two hundred
1:04
thousand dollars a year. You ever been on a cruise ship. All the
1:07
workers that like the Philippines, you know, it's great pay for them.
1:11
They love it. So, yeah, they'll probably shovel coal. Wow,
1:14
p a colonizer. I don't even know. I truly am not. I
1:19
mean I've been. I know I can see coal fire ship. Oh no,
1:26
you're not gonna make it even do you would? You would post the
1:32
job, you would be honest about the description of the work, and they
1:36
would apply, and they wouldn't. Then it's all show them a clip a
1:41
movie that Hey, this is what you guys are doing. You wear that
1:44
leather vest so that the heat doesn't get on you when you're shoveling it in
1:48
there. I like that guy's best so bike. The Titanic, I just
1:51
learned, is roughly half the size of a normal cruise ship of the day
1:55
today. Yeah, they've definitely gotten bigger. Why is this? Why is
1:57
this exciting anymore? Well? I think they got too big. So if
2:01
this is a nice breath of fresh air, is that right? And expecting
2:06
Titanic two to be the sequel and just be ten times the size, you
2:10
know, like how Fast and the Furious had to go to space? Be
2:13
that kind of a right, like we just have to keep one up again.
2:16
I don't know, are you gonna are you gonna climb aboard? No?
2:20
No, okay unless swets her face? Is there Rose Winslet? Yeah?
2:25
You love windsor I do? I do. I'm in love with Winslet.
2:29
He's good. Robert F. Kennedy Junior has been in talks with two
2:31
people to be his potential running mates in the presidential election. NFL quarterback Aaron
2:37
Rodgers Topping the Less Pike, known politician got It, and former Minnesota governator
2:44
and professional wrestler Jesse Ventura The Body, Oh, the Body Wow, a
2:47
couple of interesting choices. Plans to announce his choice in the next two weeks.
2:52
If it's Ventura, I don't know. If if it's Rogers Spike and
2:54
I don't like to take sides in politics, But if it's Venture, I'm
2:59
voting for him too. Well. He'll be the independent party of course,
3:01
right, I don't know? Or if yeah, that's that's why he's getting
3:05
to run for president. Can you just label yourself any party? Like?
3:08
If he also wanted to run as a Democrat. Would he be allowed to
3:12
do that or would somebody because they got And I'm no politician either, But
3:16
the way I understand it, the Democratic Party has to not They have to
3:22
choose their own and they already have done so, right, But what if
3:23
they were like what if I was like, I'm a Democrat. Two guys,
3:27
I want to run. I don't think you get on the bout.
3:28
I think you have to go through the caucauses if you haven't been properly caucused
3:34
caucusing. He's an independent. You don't need to cock the independent. Also,
3:38
Pike Today is a National Pie Day. By the way, three one
3:40
four is the first three digits and the number PI. You know the next
3:46
four not as well as I know. That's Celine Dion song. That's what
3:52
I know. You love pie. I love pie, pie the food.
3:54
Yes, what is your favorite pie? That's a tough call. Probably robberry
4:00
rubarb. I also love peak can pie. Talk about rubarb being just like
4:03
a ditch weed that tastes delicious. It kind of looks like pink celery,
4:09
it does. We had some in her yard grown up? Did you yeah,
4:11
actually have some in my yard currently? Do you really? Every year
4:14
she pops back up and I don't harvest it. Miss theo I missed the
4:16
rhubarb days. Bring some of that in, would you? I will?
4:19
I will, I'll see if my wife won't make me a crisp. Oh,
4:23
I do like a rhubarb crisp too. That is good, Hartley Cloudy,
4:26
and we're gonna see fifty today in the morning. I said, you've
4:30
ever seen it in the movie? Last night? What a treat if you
4:33
attended the free Justin Timberlake show in La And of course he did it because
4:36
you're not a celebrity, but some people did. In video service of a
4:41
very very big surprise. Guess who after the curtain opened up, Michelle Obomo,
4:46
there was four stools and guess what rear ends were sitting at on Destiny's
4:49
Child? No, no, close the judges from Shark Tank Ah. No,
4:58
of course it was the boys from Insane. Yes, yes, they
5:00
joined Justin on stage last night. Big surprise, and they did their brand
5:03
new song which will be on his album New JT album out this Friday.
5:08
Song is called Paradise. They gave us a little taste. Oh and this
5:11
is all them just singing sitting down with microphones, no tracks, nothing,
5:15
listen that sounds the harmonies. I still got us. They still got it.
5:34
They really do sick. So I can't wait to hear that song.
5:36
I'm being taken away right, that's really good. And then of course while
5:41
they're there, so of course they stuck around and did bye bye bye.
5:45
They did. It's gonna marry, marry and girlfriend, So very exciting for
5:49
those people. Now, Lance on JT's Instagram after compted something like, oh,
5:54
this was fun, Let's do it again soon. So I know what
5:59
he means. What do you think they're gonna do it again soon? You're
6:01
right right at a Timberlake show now when they go on the whole tour,
6:04
I hope so that would be that would be a reason to go because I
6:08
think the newest one is in Chicago, who is booked through twenty four,
6:11
but I feel like Fargo Doom could get right in there about February twenty five.
6:15
Let's hope. So, Winky wink Fargo dome Boy. Robert Downey Junior
6:20
is a married man. That's not the news. He've been married for some
6:23
time, but him and his wife have a rule. Okay, him and
6:26
his wife Susan because they have three kids, busy schedules. It's a two
6:30
week rule that every two weeks they have to know, they have to be
6:34
whether they can't go more than two weeks without being a part, okay,
6:39
just in physically in each other's presence. Well, because of their schedules and
6:43
the movies and what have you. Right, they don't go more than two
6:46
weeks ever with being a part. That's a lot. Yeah, I mean
6:48
that's obviously for any normal couple, not that hard to achieve being together at
6:54
least every two weeks. Right, But do you have any specific rules for
6:58
your relationship? I actually I do have one. Yeah, no food in
7:00
bed? Do you really? Yeah? You don't like to eat in bed.
7:03
It's a loose rule, like like, if it's Valentine's Day, breakfast
7:06
in bed is probably gonna happen. Got you? You are a weak ghost
7:10
swab. I'm saying for me if somebody's gonna bringing me breakfast, oh gotcha?
7:14
Yeah? Well, why don't you like to eat bed? It's really
7:15
fun? Yeah, I know, but a lot of things are crumbly,
7:17
and then I hate laand in crumbs I know. Yeah, yeah, popcorn
7:20
in bed after a few drinks, you're finding kernels for we're eating popcorn in
7:25
bed. Oh yeah, going to town too. Your unbelievable. And then
7:28
I sleep naked of course. So you ever felt the sensation of a popcorn
7:31
kernel on your rear? Ends, I'll stuck to you. It's incredible.
7:36
You are a disgusting many. Well, thank you, You're welcome. So
7:42
Share has a new boyfriend, shares like, what seventy six or something?
7:46
Well, the boyfriend this guy Alexander Edwards, thirty nine years younger than her,
7:49
which is fine, but he is the ex and father of amber Rose's
7:54
child. Okay, so amber Rose was the one that was dating like Kanye.
7:57
Yep, you know you've seen her, you've heard from her. She's
7:59
a Hollywood type. But she says she doesn't care at all that he ae
8:03
is bringing their child over to his new girlfriend shares house. A probably because
8:07
you think about you think about all the girls that he could be dating,
8:11
and she probably have an issue taking the kid over. Share shares, saying
8:15
she's seventy five. Yeah, you know what's going on over the house.
8:18
They're doing. Well, I'm not going to do in agism because I don't
8:22
know what she says she's awesome. I'm you're not going to say something along
8:24
the lines of she's having coffee in a bar at three, because that's what
8:28
I correct. Yeah, I just think about my grandma what she was doing
8:31
when she was seventy five. It wasn't anything too risky. Grandma was probably
8:35
generally watching bowling, doing a puzzle, or doing a word find. She
8:41
had a thousand word fine books at her house. She loved. Why is
8:43
that? And maybe we all get to that point. Of course, while
8:48
we talk about word finds, my grandma too. Did she rip through them
8:50
one after the other, never got tired of and they did word fines,
8:54
but not crossword puzzles, right, you know whaticed that? Yeah, because
8:56
they're harder. And she would she was so good at him. She would
9:01
race me, really and she'd kick my butt pike destroyed and then she and
9:05
then she gave me a hard time about how I circled it, but my
9:09
circles would kind of go into the other letters. She just she hated that
9:11
they were so neat about it. They were they were just neat. They
9:13
were artful, they were smart. And then they looked at us and they
9:18
went, you big idiot. Nah, my grandma's is sweetie. She still
9:22
thought you were dumb. Probably probably, I get a Manda in the morning
9:28
ninety seven. You got a favorite part of the day, thinking about your
9:31
day when I'm with you, Pike went all twenty four hours, whether you're
9:35
sleeping or not. They did a whole study in this. You can thank
9:39
the PLS Digital Health Journal. Ah, the plause. And I only know
9:43
this because I subscribe. I pay monthly. You're a plasir, of course.
9:46
But they did a whole study on the best parts of the day and
9:48
the worst part of the day. So they say your mood is at its
9:52
finest, you are your cheeriest at five pm. That's the majority of people,
9:58
even were artists of your schedule when you're awake. When you're asleep five
10:03
pm, they say, those hormones are just pumping. I could see that.
10:07
Yeah, I mean, especially if you get off at five. Is
10:09
there anything better than going home just punching the clock? Yeah? That song
10:15
starts playing like my Baby works the morn and train. Yeah, right,
10:20
and then it's singing in your ears. You grab your briefcase, you throw
10:22
on your jacket. It depends on what you do because I will say this
10:26
job, you know, when I leave, it's just like, oh,
10:28
it's time to believe. It's never like you know, we've all had jobs
10:33
where it's unbelievable, how long eight hours, some kind of a bell rings
10:37
and then they go, yeah, quin well that never quite had the factory
10:41
job you're describing. But I wore jobs where, especially at Rby's, you
10:46
know, they got the clock on the wall right, and you just it's
10:48
a little game where you just try to avoid looking at the clock, and
10:52
then when you finally do, you're either one pleasantly surprised and how much time
10:56
has passed? Two you can't freaking believe that it's only been twenty minutes.
11:03
Let you do an AirPod in there? I no, no, I don't
11:05
think so. I did work at a golf course and I did sneak an
11:07
AirPod. So yeah, that's a sneaky little hack is just have one AirPod
11:11
in. You just don't let people see that ear huh. You just act
11:13
like your focus. You just flip your hair over that one ear yeah yeah,
11:18
yeah, grow your hair out a little bit. What about the worst
11:20
time of day, It's got to be four am. It's my least favorite
11:22
part of the day. Yeah, are you ever well? For you?
11:26
I mean, I get up at four, but are you up at four?
11:28
Generally? No, I will say. If you're up at four,
11:31
you know, it is the worst part of the day. It's absolutely horrible.
11:33
It's one hour too far away from night time, like because obviously you
11:39
can party till three am. That's a great time, but then by four
11:41
the party's dead. Yeah. If you're still up at four, right,
11:43
it's getting weird. But if you're sleeping and you get up at four,
11:46
it's not nearly enough sleep. You haven't hit at least enough rems. No,
11:50
right, I'm going four. Yeah, well they say it's five,
11:54
so you're close. However, no cigar wow. Yeah, they say five
11:56
am officially is the worst time of day. Scientists prove that based on mood,
12:01
circadian clock, various other factors. We are at our most depressed at
12:05
five am, even if you're asleep. Really yeah, sad You ever have
12:09
a sad dream? No? I don't really have dream spike, it's weird.
12:13
What I've probably had five dreams in my life that I remember. Okay,
12:18
well, remembering is one thing, of course, you're dreaming. Okay,
12:20
People saying that if you don't remember, if a bear in the woods
12:24
but I don't smell it, did it actually happen? I think you're looking
12:26
for if a tree falls down, that's what I've met. No one's around
12:30
here. Do make it sound that's what I said. Okay, A is
12:35
the Pope Catholic White and Amanda in the morning on Sage. It's just this
12:41
weird thing that we all in our relationships, like, are living this.
12:45
We're doing this secret thing that nobody ever knows about, nobody ever sees it.
12:48
It's only in private. But it turns out a majority of married couples
12:54
use baby talk okay with one Another. Study out of low End University,
12:58
may Up College has found that mary couples inating yeah with one another using the
13:05
same techniques used on dogs and babies. It's the speech known as baby talk,
13:09
otherwise called mother ease, got its own official language. Okay. Basically,
13:15
it involves simple language and a higher pitch. Now, James, who
13:18
recently got engaged, huh, thank you? Do you use baby talk in
13:22
your relationship? I can't remember. Only when I'm making fun, Okay,
13:26
that doesn't count. Like let's say you stubbed your toe Pike, and we
13:28
were in a relationship together and pookidd your toel good. Yeah, oh that's
13:33
fine, that's funny. But when you talk to your significant other, do
13:37
you use the same voice used talking to me? Yeah, you do,
13:39
I think so. Really yeah, I find myself talking in a weird way
13:43
to my wife, and we definitely do like some little baby talk. Really
13:46
got I'm going to do a thing that is so cute, Pike, it's
13:50
not even sometimes it's baby talk. Like we we do refer to water as
13:54
wah wah. Correct Oh my god, you don't oh no, ye,
13:58
we say waa. I feel like it started out as a joke and then
14:01
we just adopted it as a thing we say, I say aga sometimes,
14:05
oh funny to be cute? Is that Spanish? I don't know. Probably
14:09
yesterday on the show we said that seven in Spanish was sacee and we were
14:15
corrected. So we thank you, apologize for that. Appreciate you. It
14:18
is so appreciate you for correcting. Oh it is correct, of course,
14:22
but you know, it is a little embarrassing. Like I would never I
14:24
would never want anybody I know and love to hear me talk the way that
14:28
I talk At home, and I don't know what it is. Can you
14:30
try it out on me? Should know it's very emasculine. Not that I
14:33
set out to try to be like this burly man, because I'm not.
14:37
You're right handsome, but jeez, like I think about it sometimes I'm like,
14:39
is my wife even is this doing anything for her? The way I'm
14:41
talking right now, it can't be. There's no way she can't think that
14:46
it's hot. Maybe I got to reevaluate. Well, I don't know.
14:48
I mean, hey, listen, when is go time? Though, I'll
14:52
well that's what I'm saying. I'll drop it down. And I was gonna
14:54
say, when it's a god time, you're goind of whisper in a little
14:56
bit bank, I just start presenting like I'm on the radio. Oh really,
15:00
yeah, you're just like and now now wah wah, Like in a
15:05
minute in the morning on Big Nutty eight point seven, you want suspect a
15:09
thing when you hear that telephone room by friend looks like you never this lesson
15:18
by friend Sunny want arrested fives friend. Okay, so this woman's having a
15:24
little issue with a car wash in town. Apparently there was a promotional offer
15:28
she was charged a full amount. Husband told us about it, so he
15:33
wanted to mess with him a bit. Okay, here we go, Okay,
15:35
here we go, let's do it. Hello. Hi is this Emily?
15:41
Yes? Hi Emily. My name is Henry horse Around. I am
15:46
the manager over here at car wash. Say, I'm just returning your message
15:50
about your car wash subscription. Oh my go yes? Is there a reason
15:54
it took so long? Well, you're at car wash. Our systems a
15:58
little unique, so you're base. Anytime we get a complaint for a manager,
16:02
we just have one of the employees pretend to write the person's name down
16:06
on a sticky note, and we tell them that they're going to call them
16:07
back when this is when they get the message, and then as soon as
16:11
the person drives away, we just go ahead and throw that note in the
16:12
garbage. So you know, it's not the most streamlined process, you see.
16:17
Oh are you serious? Well, Emily, I understand that you signed
16:22
up for a five dollars a month unlimited car wash promotion, but you were
16:26
charged the full thirty nine dollars instead. Is that right? Yes, that's
16:30
exactly what happened, right, Okay, So what seems to be the problem.
16:36
Okay, you serious, because the problem is that you took thirty nine
16:38
dollars out of my account without my permission. Ah, okay, I understand.
16:44
All right, Emily, here's what we can do. Okay, we
16:45
will very generously extend your membership for five years at the full rate, but
16:53
we're gonna give you that first month at the promotional rate of five dollars.
16:57
That sound good. No, that doesn't sound good. I just want my
17:02
money back, money back. Yeah, well, I'm afraid we can't do
17:06
that. Emily. Listen. I need you to understand. I live on
17:08
a very tight budget and I can't just see giving away almost forty dollars to
17:12
businesses because they're making mistakes. You know, It's not like your money was
17:17
going to complete waste. You know, I don't even know what that means.
17:21
Well, here's car wash. We care so strongly about the community that
17:26
we have pledged to build forty seven more car washes here in Farga Moorehead by
17:32
the year twenty twenty six. All lofty goal, but Emily, with your
17:36
money, we might just do it. I think this is just a freaking
17:38
joke. I want my money back. I don't care if you want to
17:41
build more car washes, and to be honest, it's a lastings town.
17:45
I mean, where would people watch their cars that, Emily if there were
17:48
no car washes as a four hundred freaking car washes that already exist. Dude,
17:53
Oh okay, all right, yeah, I think I see what's going
17:56
on here. Oh do you really? Yeah? Yeah I do. I
18:00
think you're trying to swindle old Henry Horse around out of an extra month of
18:03
freak car washesing me you get my money? Are you gonna give me my
18:08
money back? Or am I gonna have to pick this up with the BBB?
18:12
What the Better Business Bureau? The BBB? Isn't that like a magazine
18:17
or something? Oh my gosh, you're acting like a boron. Okay wait
18:21
now, Emily, that may be true, but this call is not real.
18:25
I don't I don't understand. All right, it's a prank call,
18:29
Emily, not real. It's Pike and Amanda in the morning, a big
18:32
ninety eight point seven. Are you giving me any serious? Yeah? Yeah,
18:37
dead serious. It's a Pike. Frank. Your husband was the one
18:41
who reached out to you said you're going through a little situation, which I
18:44
do. I do feel bad. But uh yeah, again, we're not
18:47
gonna be able to help you with that refund. Oh my god. Oh
18:51
oh, I'm just sounds like you're getting swindled, Emily. Oh yeah,
18:56
but my husband get a mana in the morning. Come on, get up
19:02
on big. I've thought about this a lot, but there's a video that's
19:06
gone viral confirming my fears that young people, people who grew up with devices,
19:11
cell phones, laptops, that they're already becoming hunchbacks. Okay, now
19:18
you know you've seen elderly people who just have that hunched overlook, right,
19:22
I think it's something that just happens with age. My great grandma had a
19:25
heck of a hunch did you really It was probably like five foot nothing,
19:29
and her head was like level with her back. Oh no, one of
19:32
the like a ninety degree angle. Basically that was really hunchy. Oh man.
19:36
Well, they're saying people who are even as young as like twenty six
19:38
are experiencing this. It was a chiropractor who released a video showing the spines
19:44
of people basically from nineteen ninety two and on who were born and they're already
19:48
experiencing this hunchback syndrome because they're staring at the phone. Huh, well think
19:53
about it. You don't even notice it, but how much your day your
19:56
phone's in your hand and you're looking down at it. Yep. Meanwhile,
20:00
our ancestors grew up, eyes forward, eyes forward, eyes up at the
20:04
sky. Oh yeah, looking around, wanted to fly unless you're looking down
20:08
at the newspaper or a what's an old thing? Periodical? A periodical also
20:14
a newspaper, but it's more of a synonym than it was another idea.
20:18
Nevertheless, Yeah, the eyes were up, eyes were forward. So a
20:22
piece of parchment, pike, ooh, a tablet, but original tablet made
20:25
of stone like the flintstones in the movie where he's chiseling away. A lot
20:30
of people start freaking out when this chiropractor released the video showing them what they're
20:34
facing, and they're like, oh my god, you've now, you've scared
20:37
me straight. What can I do? How can I change? And so
20:40
the chiropractor said, well, why don't you come in, We'll get you
20:41
on a program. Nice. No, I mean I think that's basically what
20:45
he's doing in back brace on him. Yeah, you did list some stretches,
20:48
some things you can do if you do work at a computer all day,
20:52
which is a lot of people, basically keep the monitor at eye level,
20:56
you know, a good standing desk. So you think I should put
20:59
this boy up here James has a laptop holding in his hand at his eye
21:03
level. Yeah, if you could do that all day, okay, but
21:04
how do I type it? I'm holding it up. You don't, Oh
21:07
got it? You just sit there until I was gonna say, quit your
21:10
drib quit your phone. I mean that really seems like the best way.
21:12
The best was as I was reading this story, I was in the chair
21:15
that I have in the studio here because I'm a lazy guy. Some radio
21:18
guys stand that's insane to me, that is insane. So I'm like laying
21:22
in this chair kind of the way you would at the end of the day
21:23
you'd get laid down on your couch and just kind of crumble yeap, just
21:27
laying to the side on the chair, absorb your body. Yep. That's
21:30
basically how I was reading this article. And now you're sitting up straight.
21:33
Yeah, as soon as you read it, or you might be even in
21:36
your car right now listening, just all of a sudden you perk up and
21:38
you get into that really good form. Well you can hit that lumbar support
21:41
on the back of the seat to a really poker yeah, boom, Yeah,
21:45
yeah, does feel good. They should take the backs out of the
21:47
seats in your car, Yeah, just so you just sit on a bench.
21:49
That's a good idea. Yeah, that would definitely be good. Probably
21:52
not the best for impact, But what's more important surviving a car crash or
21:57
back health? Or back health? I'm sure I ant in the morning Big
22:02
ninety eight point seven. I was blown away. I had never heard of
22:03
this until yesterday. Did you see the story of the Man in the Iron
22:07
Lung? No, I'm like I heard that. I'm like iron lung?
22:11
What is that? Even? It's like a DiCaprio film. Well, it
22:15
should be because this guy, Paul Alexander, now spoiler, the reason we're
22:19
talking about it is because he passed away. Barry Say yep PA, seventy
22:22
eight years old, died yesterday. Okay, but it was his life,
22:26
that's the incredible part. For seventy years, since he was a boy,
22:32
he lived his life inside of an iron lung. What is that? So?
22:36
Picture like a tube? Like if you were getting like an MRI yep,
22:38
and you were going to go in like that tube or whatever. Like.
22:41
He lived in one of those because when he was seven years old he
22:45
got polio, which is the thing you would get back in the fifties.
22:49
He was paralyzed from the neck down and so he couldn't breathe on his own.
22:55
So in the fifties they put him inside this iron lung which would breathe
22:59
for him him for the next seventy years. James, he lived in that
23:03
iron lung. This is not a wheelchair. You don't move. He just
23:08
laid in this iron lung. It was paralyzed. He wasn't moving anyway.
23:11
Well, even a person, a quadriplegic person, you know, Christopher Reeve,
23:17
he could get around. Yeah, but he had that wasn't that like
23:18
mouth activated? Well yeah, I mean a lot of people that's the case.
23:22
But this guy, this guy just wheeling him around in the iron lung.
23:25
He was bound to the hospital or wherever the lung was. Looking at
23:27
pictures of this dude in the iron lung. It's got like a little rubber
23:30
neck thing. So his head pokes out the top, right, so his
23:33
head sticking out so you can still you know, communicate And the interesting part
23:36
about Paul Alexander. He did graduate from high school pretty smiley. Yeah,
23:41
he seemed to be happy, which is a good lesson for everyone, but
23:44
that a man's dream is to lay around and yeah, that's why TV,
23:48
that's what I'm driving in. So then he ended up going to college.
23:51
When I say going, I'm doing an air quotes, which didn't go anywhere.
23:53
Well, right, but he did study law. He ended up becoming
23:57
a lawyer. Law He was a lawyer. He was a lawyer. So
24:02
let's say, let's say you're on trial, you know, don't do it.
24:07
Well, I'm just I'm wondering if that's an advantage or a disadvantage if
24:11
your lawyer is the guy in the iron lung. I would imagine he was
24:14
doing more of a paperwork angle. Yeah, you know, think he's I
24:17
don't think he was. I don't think it was like your honor I object.
24:19
I don't think he was that guy. I don't know. Well,
24:22
it's sad because he died, but you know, going back to what he
24:25
said, James, it is interesting how people in horrible, horrible conditions,
24:27
like if you today and I'm like everybody else, I'll probably find something to
24:32
complain about today, right, write something. I'm like, oh, this
24:33
sucks, I've already complained today. Meanwhile, you got people like Pa living
24:38
seventy years in an iron finding things to be happy about. It a smile
24:42
on this man's face. However, when I do see a man in an
24:45
iron lung like this, which kind of looks like it's got little windows,
24:48
like a little submarine attached to your body, it does look like it could
24:52
go underwater, Wally. If that's the case, well then you could go
24:56
look at the fishes and stuff. You could have somebody dump you in the
24:57
drink. If Paul, this guy could be you like, hey, I
25:00
want to go down below for a week. If they had just like a
25:03
trapdoor underneath his room, so just poo, yeah, right into the water.
25:07
You want to go see the fish. Yeah. See, it's not
25:08
all bad sounds. I mean, it's really an incredible, incredible story of
25:14
this man who is now no longer with us. So rip Paul, Alexandra,
25:18
thank you for your time with us. I get a man in the
25:21
morning, Sage ninety seven. I find it crazy that this whole survey was
25:26
done. And you remember when you graduated high school, you got out of
25:29
the house and pretty much on your own right. Well, forty seven percent
25:33
of American parents are still supporting at least one adult child. What age,
25:40
I mean, it doesn't specify, but I guess technically eighteen. Is it
25:45
becoming more and more of a thing? Or Am I just one of the
25:47
only losers who didn't get any financial help out of high school? And not
25:51
that I wanted it or expected it, it was that would just be foreign
25:53
to me. You know, I'm not a parrot pike, but I think
25:56
I would abandon them at eighteen altogether this financially and you just don't want to
26:00
I might not even talk to him again. You don't even want to have
26:03
dinner on Sunday eighteen teams, Well, are you gonna pay for it?
26:06
You're gonna We're gonna go Dutch on that sucker. I don't think you go
26:08
Dutch with your parents, do you? I usually do, really sometimes I
26:11
pay for my mom. Well, I mean yeah, depending on your situation,
26:15
I pay for my mom as well. Yeah. Yeah. See,
26:17
we're we're just we're not regular people are not, so it's hard to speak
26:21
on regular people things. However, out of high school, did you have
26:23
any sort of like did your parents or your mom pay your phone bill?
26:26
Your insurance? Still like a lot of that stuff. You know. I
26:30
know the insurance because I think you have until you're what twenty six or something
26:33
to be on Like we didn't have health insurance. Okay, yeah, fair
26:37
I paid my car insurance my car and also paid I don't remember how much
26:42
it was, it was like maybe three hundred bucks a month to live at
26:45
the house. After I was oh, you're paying rent even really what about
26:48
you? Seven on one two eight h one ninety eight seven. Are you
26:51
footing the bill for an adult child or did you have the bill footed for
26:55
you out of high school? If you're in the position to do it,
26:57
like if you're a parent, if you're like a traditional house old you got
27:00
you got a dad, you got a mom, and you guys make good
27:02
money and you want to support your kids, like, you know, great,
27:04
that's your decision. I understand the inclination to want to, right,
27:10
because it's like, I have this money, I should what a better place
27:12
to use. It makes perfect sense totally, But but then you get into
27:17
the whole lesson learning right, you know, it makes it makes for people
27:19
who think that the world is not difficult it or they don't have to try
27:25
it. Yeah, you make it too easy for somebody than any bit of
27:27
a difficulty. How are they going to handle it? I don't know.
27:30
You learned a guitar pike by doing what? Watching YouTube video? Youre being
27:33
really bad at it for a long time. Well, believe it or not,
27:37
James, you were good the first day. Quite the opposite. Oh,
27:40
still really bad.
