  Speaker 1: All right.
• 0:00
  Speaker 2: Hello, everybody, and welcome to another episode of Off the Air,
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: the weekly podcast from the Lynch & Taco Morning Show
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: here at 101.1 WJRR in Orlando. I'm Pat Lynch. Taco Bob,
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: say hello.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Hello. Look at how short I look.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: What's going on over there, man?
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Well, we have our guests in who we'll introduce in
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: a moment from Scotland. And We had to have a
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: third chair, so I went and got a chair, and
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: this is the tallest as it goes.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: So like the kid's chair at the Thanksgiving table there.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: It's great.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: That's it. And look, it's like our head levels go,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: and we'll introduce them. John. Hey, guys. How you doing?
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: John from Glasgow. From Glasgow. And then we have Leanne.
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: Hi, everyone.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: And then my head. Yes.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: So we first met John and Leanne several years ago.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: They've been longtime listeners of the show. They have the
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: iHeartRadio app and other means of being able to listen.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Unofficially. Right, right, right.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Because it works from anywhere. Wink, wink. But yeah, if
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: you're tech savvy enough, you can make it work. And
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: you guys have for years. And we kind of got
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: to know each other over the years. And you guys
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: make a trek over here to... to the U.S. on
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: a fairly regular basis for your vacation or holiday?
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, usually we're every two years.
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: We came over September last year. We try to do
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: September because HHN at Universal's on for.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Halloween Horror Nights.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: So we usually come over then. But first and foremost,
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: the reason I ended up listening to WGRR was my
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: brother came over for a vacation here. Probably late 90s,
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: probably 99 thereabouts. Obviously, WDRR just starting, kind of starting
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: to get out, you know, 93 onwards. And he always
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: said to me, if you ever go to America, you know,
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: I'll end up going to America in about 2000 with
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: some buddies before.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: I met my wife, Leanne.
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: And back in the days, it was before the internet
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: and Facebook and stuff. But we tuned into WDRR then
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: and listened to it. And ever since then, when I
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: came back with Leanne, I'm like, we can listen to this.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: We can listen to this in Scotland. And then since 2015,
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: we've came to see you guys each time we've came down.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: So it's been cool that you guys have. And when
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: I listen to you guys at work, I'm listening kind
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: of like 10 a.m., to 3pm, so it's when you
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: guys are on air, with a time difference 5 to 10.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: You're in the midday, right?
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: It works perfectly for me, like my whole workday is
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: when you guys are on air.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: So it's always where, in Scotland, it's what, either 5
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: or 6, depending on what time?
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: Usually 5 hours, 5, yeah. It's 5 hours. That's a
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: diamond time difference, yeah.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: So it works for you, and we appreciate you for
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: all these years being loyal to the radio station and
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: discovering us.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we have several listeners from across the pond who
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: have figured out the workaround.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Why is it the people in Europe have to figure
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: out the workaround?
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: Because it's the advertising issues. So, like, you guys, like.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Copyright stuff.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Copyright stuff, Good Boy Vodka, whatever else.
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: Like, they've not paid for it.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Look at him dropping the sponsor mentions. You know how
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: it works.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I love Bud Light. Hook me up with some Bud Light.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: But, like, I think it's, like... You can get the
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: iHeartRadio app. If you go into, like, a Google Play
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: store or anything, it's like this item is not available
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: in your country.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: So you can just, like, basically Google the APK and
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: download it that way, sideload it, and it lets you
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: play in the radio station.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Sideloading. Sideloading.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: This is a number one. I was going to say,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: she pulled it as far as it'll come.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Just scoot up just a touch more.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: It's because the thing will hit your knee. There you are.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: Pat said it earlier before we started the podcast. He goes, yeah,
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: just get close like you guys are married. So you're actually,
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: are you guys, you're going on the rock and the
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: river cruise?
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're going tomorrow.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: It should be fun for a couple hours.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: This will be good for the cameras, hopefully, right? Because
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: I've got a t-shirt For Bob. I've got one for
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: you as well, Pat, right? But I've got one for
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: Bob that you're going to lose your mind on.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Okay.

  Speaker 3: They always do bring gifts. They've done food in the
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: past and sweets.

  Speaker 1: Oh, the iron broom.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Yes. The iron broom.

  Speaker 2: what they just said. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Am I able to wash it ahead of time? So
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know if that's going to be of the
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: same significance, but I'll pass it over to you.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: What do we got here?
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: One for yourself.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I kind of messed up a wee bit. I pulled

  Speaker 1: You have to hold it up to the camera. Okay,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: you're close.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: I was close.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: You're close. Is it going to be the drawbridge? Drawbridge.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: He went with me wanting to work one day in
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: a tall booth.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: My apologies. Same thing, basically. I know.
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: It was like a week later after the T-shirt got
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: printed and you guys were talking about it.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: I'm like, my God, I messed up there. It was drawbridge. Dude, it's...
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: This is the best gift ever.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Absolutely phenomenal.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Now, are we able to wash them?
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Of course.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I didn't know because a lot of times with logo stuff,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: it can... I think that should be good.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Hey, Fruit of the Loom high-quality t-shirts, man. They didn't
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: skimp on this.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: I can feel that they're high-quality 100%. It's a heavy shirt.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying I wanted to make... That is funny
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: as shit, dude.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Do you like with this, the fake
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: picture of me? He's got a tattoo on my forearm.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: And a listener noticed that and said, Bob, I don't
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: even think you have any tats.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: But AI Bob does.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Thank you, guys.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Thank you. You're so welcome. You know what the funny
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: thing was?
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: When I was looking to make up the original T-shirt
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: before that, went up for the St.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: John Rivers thing.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: When I was just looking at, you know, you can
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: use AI to make general T-shirts in general. And that
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: picture of Bob came up on the site before the
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: WJRR went up.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: That's scary, isn't it?
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: You sent me the picture at work and I'm like.
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: That is not Bob.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: No way that is Bob.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: And like you said, because you're... Accent so like actually
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: it's a lot more Americanized now, but no it's not
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: But just for the record what he's.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Just be like what the hell are they saying?
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: So the comment that he made was Beat this before
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: it even went on the river before the river cruise
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: ad even went up online with AI Bob This was there.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Yes, Pat. You're right. That is scary.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah Wow If you're just joining us, our international guests
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: from Scotland, some international listeners and folks who've become friends
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: of the show over the years. John and Leanne Herbert
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: from Scotland. What city in Scotland.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Are you guys living in?
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Near Glasgow.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: So we're near where Glasgow Airport is.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: We're the west coast. We're the west coast.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: So we're kind of like probably an hour away from
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: where Edinburgh is. So it's the main capital with the
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: castle and stuff like that. Well, you guys met a
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: lot of people during the World Cup for the Tartan
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: Army that came over.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: We wanted to bring that up. The Tartan Army.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Are you guys part of that?
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah. So.
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: If you're Scottish, obviously you want your team to do well.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: I mean, Scotland sucked.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Just phenomenally, perennially bad, right?
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, they're like the worst of the worst.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: But their supporters are some of the best supporters you'll
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: get in the world.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: You guys met them.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: We learned that fast. Great people, man.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: And like, if you.
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: Look at even the way that the Boston people, you know,
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: embraced them and everybody met them. They went to the
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: baseball games, cleaning up after themselves.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, they drank.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Drank the place dry, yeah. Well, we saw that here
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: locally because we did a whole series of World Cup
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: events with Mick Ultra. And the Tartan Army showed up
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: ahead of– no, we had tickets for the Scotland.
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: Match in Miami.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: So there's 2,000 people that have showed up, international– It
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: was crazy, and it was hot as blazes out.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, God, yeah.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: This was set up on an asphalt parking lot outside
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: of this bar out near I-Drive. Was that Murphy's?
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Was that Murphy's one?
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Which one was that at, Bob?
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: I can't remember.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: There was a couple Irish slash Scottish type bars out
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: there because we were at a bunch of them. Yeah.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm looking at what's going on. I'm going,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: this is insane. But insanely fun.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: It was good.
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: And this is the thing. I mean, like.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Nicest ever.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: Scottish fans, the football fans, they know that they're the underdogs. Like,
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: they don't go in and go, we're going to win this.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: You know, we're going to win this tournament. We're going
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: to win the cup. They're happy to be there. We're
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: happy to be taking part, sort of thing, you know.
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: But their fans are so passionate about. And they're very,
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: you know, it was like, I don't know how to
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: explain it. Like, a lot of the time you listen
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: to whatever radio station, whatever news station you listen to,
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: and it's all doom and gloom, and the world's so
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: polarised just now. And that whole time of the World
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: Cup when Scotland came over, it was like a different America.
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: You've seen people embraced all these people, and it was
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: people coming out, having a beer, shaking each other's hands.
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: And it was like, how can I not be like
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: this more often?
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: They brought us in to this tartan. Tartan, right? Tartan army?
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: No, tartan.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Tartan. Tartan.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: That's somebody in English, primarily.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, either way, the tartan, whatever it was, they
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: just welcomed Pat and I in like we're family.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: I was like, all right, dude, let's hang out. I
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: got to tell you guys something, too.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: You guys already know this because you've been here numerous times,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: but the folks... your fellow countrymen and women who were here,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: and a lot of them for the first time. And
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: we saw this over and over, not just from the
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Scottish fans, but from a lot of the international fans.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: They get here and they have false expectations of what
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: they've been told about America and Americans in general. And
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: you so quickly become keenly aware, which most of us
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: already are, that the media is full of shit.
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: Absolutely.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Or shite, as you guys might say.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: I like that.
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: At the end, shite, I'll take that. Yeah, no, I mean, totally.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: Every single time, I think it's like a tunnel vision
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: that you see. It's like a paradox of this is
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: what the world is like, specifically in America, because there's
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: a lot of stuff going on like that just now.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: We've been here so many. This is probably our seventh
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: time together. We've been to Vegas as well. Anywhere we've
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: ever went, the people have embraced us. And I don't
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: know if that's maybe because we're just in tourist parts
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: like Universal, DisneySeaWorld, these sort of places. Obviously, this is
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: a bit more real America than a Maitland that you're
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: out with, the main area. But we've never came across
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: anybody that's been... I'm not saying bad things don't happen. Obviously,
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: you guys cover it every day in a duology. But
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: on the general basis, most people are friendly. They'll sit
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: down and chat with you.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: They'll have a beer.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: And you can say the same for a good part
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: of the world, man. Sure, there's lots of places that
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: are hell holes and you never even want to think
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: about going to because you fear for your life. But
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: the United States in general is not one of those places.
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: It's just not.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: It's polarized by the media. It's totally polarized.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: They love pitting us against each other. Pick an issue,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: they'll pit us against each other. because it means clicks
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: and eyeballs for them, and it gets people lathered up.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: And if we would all just maybe take a moment
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: to realize that's going on, we could probably tamp down
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: a bunch of this needless bullshit.
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: 100%.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: And we're never going to agree on everything.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: No.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: And if we understand that, I think it might be
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: a little easier to move forward. That's half the battle.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: That's half the battle. I agree.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: You guys, you find out with your media, though, too,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: doing the same kind of crap.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I.
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: Think it really comes down to what news station you
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: follow on Facebook. Because they feed you whatever content the
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: agenda is.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: They all do the same thing.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: They all do the same thing. But as I say,
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: we try and see past that. And when we come
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: on our trips, we can normally get here for two weeks.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: I know for Americans, sometimes that's not, but we get
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: paid leave.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we wanted to ask you about that.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: There's holiday stuff on it.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Your vacation, time off, holiday, whatever you want to refer to,
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: it just seems like so many other countries have way
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: more time off. What do you get? You guys both
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: work full-time?
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: So what do you get as a full-time employee generally?
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: We get six weeks. Wow.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Right out of the gates.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: So every 1st of, was it in the March?
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: So every 1st of April. we go into a new entitlement.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: So we get 33 days paid annually. So we can
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: use that as two weeks here.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Use it or lose it?
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: You can sometimes carry over. A small amount. You can
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: sometimes maybe carry a week over or something. But yeah,
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: you'd be stupid not.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: To use it. Well, otherwise, I mean, you start stacking up.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: And then you may not be paying to use it.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: You're going to be away more than you are at work.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Correct. That's what my mom did.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: She worked for the local hospital for over 50 years.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Same with you, right?
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: Exactly.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: She worked there for a very– like over 50 years.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: She had so much overtime and whatever that she was
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: able to– when she finally retired for the third time,
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: she kept going back. She was able to use her
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: time off to nine months early. I mean she just
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: had so much over the years.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: A lot of people don't realize that, but here– employers
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: don't have to give you paid time off.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Paid time off, yeah.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, they give you days off each week.
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: So you're trying to accrue some money to go on
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: a vacation somewhere.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Right. Generally, if you work full-time somewhere, that's a benefit
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: is you get X amount of time off to start,
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: and then on anniversary dates that are set by employers,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: you can parlay it into additional weeks. But it caps
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: out usually. It usually caps out.
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: On top of the six weeks we get, we also
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: get Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Day, 2nd of January.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: So all your bank holidays plus the traditional holidays.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: So we've got one on the 28th of September, so
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: we've got one coming up. We get Easter weekend, Friday, Monday,
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: we'll add May Day.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: We get May Days. And there's a few other ones.
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: When we landed here, what was it, the 7th of September?
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: It was Labor Day.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: So the bag carousel MCO was like, I think one
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: guy was working.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: He was like backed up.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: At the airport.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: Probably people are obviously off on a day's holiday or whatever.
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: But as well as that total off topic, but as
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: well as getting those two weeks paid leave, well, essentially
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: six weeks over the year, Scotland over England, we get
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: free health care, free prescriptions, free GP visits, free education.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: Dude, I always say I'm not a Europe guy.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: Are you guys considered socialist? Are you?
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Is that a socialist?
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Because it certainly sounds like the socialist system.
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: We could stay neutral.
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: So the thing is.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Who pays for it?
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: So here's the thing, right?
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: There's no such thing as free.
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: Of course it's not, right? So everybody always gets bogged
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: down in this. So basically, you guys have deductions that
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: come off your salary.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: We contribute towards our health care.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: So we do the same.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: A proportion of that will come off our salary.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: It's called national insurance.
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: National insurance will come off weekly or monthly, depending on
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: how you're paid. And that goes towards paying for all
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: your health care. And, like, when I say that, like,
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: I mean, people always say, oh, it's no free.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: It's no free, right?
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: But, like, here in the States, like, I see horror
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: stories where sometimes people are going in to get, you know, like,
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: an operation, and God forbid somebody ever had cancer or
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: something like that. Oh, yeah. It's a really expensive, you know, treatment.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: Chemo. Like, we, unfortunately, I know people, my nana, my great-grandmother,
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: who was 92 when she died of cancer, like, the
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: treatment that she went through, God, she got all that
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: literally gratis, you know, she'd paid, she'd worked her whole life.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: So for us, it's so alien to come in a
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: situation where we're going like, you wouldn't need to pay
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: for that.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Like, where would we get that money from? You know,
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: it's alien.
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: It's one of the, we even get prescriptions free as well.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: So like, if you had to go in and say, get,
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: you know, antibiotics or something, you went to like the pharmacist,
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: All free.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, the other thing, there's a huge other
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: caveat that's a big difference. There's 335 million people in
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: this country. You're not going to be providing free anything
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: to everyone.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: But the divide is, England still needs to pay for prescriptions. Scotland,
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: we've got our own government.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: We've got the SNP.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: So that's why legislation is like, okay, we'll give you
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: free prescriptions. You pay into it anyway. But England, they're
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: kind of, well, we've still got to pay what? £ 8
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: per item.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: So if you're getting five items, that's... Adds up. Yeah,
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: enough £ 50 for you.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, adds up. So it's kind of.
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: I mean, don't get me wrong. There's pros and cons
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: for every sale.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: There's pros and cons for every sale.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: But we're jealous of the time off stuff. Let's bring
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: it back to that. I mean, that's got to be
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: nice if you're going on vacation to be able to go, hey,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: I'm going to do two weeks.
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do six.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: I don't even know what Boxing Day is, but I'm
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: taking it. When you return presents, right? I thought that's
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: what it was. That's what people do.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: And it's sales. Boxing Day sales.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: It's like Black Friday. So it's the Boxing Day sales.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Everything's massively reduced. But they do that before because it
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: was Black Friday. It's now hit the UK as well.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: We've got Black Friday pretty much starting... Halloween's out the road, boom,
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: Black Friday, lead up. It's Black Friday month now instead
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: of Black Friday day.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that's been happening here for a few years.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: It picks up, picks up.
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: We see it getting busier and stuff like that.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: So where else in the U.S. are you guys got
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: bucket list stuff still where you want to get to
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: and check out?
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: Salem, Massachusetts.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Salem, man. Okay, the whole witch trial stuff. Okay, you're
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: fascinated by that stuff.
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: Our hometown, it's famous for the witch trials.
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: The Salem stuff, yeah.
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: No, the Paisley Witch Trials. And where we stay now
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: is a village called Erskine. And that had the Bergaran
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: Witch Trials as well. So it seems to be a
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: fall where the history goes. So it's where the Burnham
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: and the Paisley Witches took place. And then there's a
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: horseshoe memorial in the middle of a road where the
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: remains were all buried.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Where else?
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Where else? It's a big country.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: Oh, we've done Mexico.
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: We've done Vegas. We've done Vegas. We've done New York
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: a couple of times. Try to watch the tours.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Has the whole Montana, Wyoming craze caught on with the
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Yellowstone type stuff?
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: Washington, the Twin Peaks locations.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Twin Peaks.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: You mean like the restaurant? No, no.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: They went to Twin Peaks here, I was going to say.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Hey, how do you spell the name of your town
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: so I.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Can Google image it?
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: Paisley.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Paisley.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: Hey, how do you spell the name of your town
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: so I can Google image it?
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Paisley. Paisley?
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: P-A-I.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Oh, like the clothes. Paisley Patton, yeah. Wait, Parton? Oh, Parton? No,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I said Patton. P-A-T-T-E-R-N. That's like the... Patton, got it.
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: It's not relevant to.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: It's just the.
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: Name of it.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Paisley Patton, Scotland. Go ahead, Pat. You don't have to wait.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: A Scotland-related question. I just got hooked and finished over
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: the course of about three months the TV show Shetland.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Did you ever watch that?
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: I know what you mean, but I've never seen it.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: It's a police show, and it's filmed and based in
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: the Shetland Islands, which is a Scottish territory off of
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: actually Norway and the North Atlantic. I'm fascinated by it.
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of shows like that, kind of local
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: shows filmed.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, the whole.
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: Traitor Show, that's filmed in Scotland as well.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Have you ever been to the Shetland Islands?
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: No.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: Is that not a place you guys ever think about
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: going to?
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: No, really.
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: No.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: It's never hot there. That's what appeals to me the most.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what turns me off. It makes me not
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: a Europe dude.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: Right. Not a Europe dude, John.
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: But then when you guys went to Ireland, it must
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: have been cold when you guys went to Ireland.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Actually, when we went to Ireland, it was right at St.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Patrick's Day time. On St. Patrick's Day, we got all
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: the seasons in one day treatment.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: How cool. I mean, for two dudes from Florida, of course,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: we've been in snow before. But to get... Rain, sleet, snow.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: The whole deal in one day.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: And then sunburned.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Standing with the parade. They were really cool over there
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: in Ireland.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: I would like to go back there and spend some
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: time there too.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Good, good, good.
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: A lot of people can make a connection, have that
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: Irish-Scootish connection. There's a lot of that there.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd say it's been there for a long time.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Do you guys.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Have a house or apartment? What's your living arrangement? How
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: old's your house? How many years? Oh, okay, so it's
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: 50-something years old.
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: Okay, all right.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: You said the 1770s. I was thinking, oh.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. Do you got any historic structures
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: in the area you live like that going back?
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Not particularly. You're more kind of like up.
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: To, like, Starland, Edinburgh, taking a look at that.
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: What was it they were filming? What movie?
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: Oh, so in Glasgow, they're filming the new Batman film.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: They're filming the.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: New Batman film.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, okay.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: And they filmed.
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: Spider-Man one, the one that just came out.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, brand new day.
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: Because a lot of Glasgow's architecture doubles very much like
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: New York.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: So they can make it look like a kind of
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: Gotham sort of thing, you know, and whatever else.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: So a lot of the architecture looks very similar. They've
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: done it on the 4Z.
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: World War Z with Brad Pitt was done in Glasgow
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: as well.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Obviously there's some tax incentives given to filmmakers.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: And that shows you how crazy that is.
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: They'll fly a full flight crew of film and television
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: all the way over.
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: And there's some Avengers in Edinburgh as well.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Avengers was in Edinburgh as well. So there was quite.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: A lot of stuff filmed there. It must be tax
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: breaks or something I don't know it's gotta.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Be sober Steve texted and he goes welcome to the
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: metalheads Welcome to the metalheads from other countries.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Love it. Welcome love metalheads from other countries You guys
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: can see this.
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: I'm written my Metallica t-shirt and it was a local
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: Glasgow artist So it's actually good Glasgow on it.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Oh cool.
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: We went to see that in June.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: That's cool.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Oh Oh, right on.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: That's awesome.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Location-specific.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: It's probably good that it was location-specific.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: They just announced a whole run of shows here in
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: the U.S. for next year.
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: Nothing in Florida, though?
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: No, because they're hidden places that they haven't been to yet.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: There's some places you go, wow, Metallica's going to play there,
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: but it's cool. It's cool.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: And we've been kind of spoiled here in Florida, if
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: you think about it.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: We get most of the shows in Florida.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: For the reason that you all come. I mean, there's
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: so much cool stuff to do. they keep that in
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: mind too. You know, like the guys, few of them
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: like to surf. So remember they went, uh, surfing with, uh,
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: Kelly Slater, Kelly and Sean Slater.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: And, uh, yeah. So they, they, we've been spoiled seeing
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Metallica launch here.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: But, uh, yeah. So what else? I had something I
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: wanted to ask you that we were going down that
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: path there. Um, concerts that you go to, do you
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: get them right where you're at or are you having
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: to travel?
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: No, we get them pretty much where we're at.
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: It's like probably 20 minutes away from where we stay.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: So we get a lot of the kind of big
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: names that come through.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: Most everybody comes through.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Metallica.
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: So like Glasgow tends to get a lot more stuff
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: than Edinburgh, which is the main capital. And I think
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: it pisses a lot of people off in Edinburgh that
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: they've got to travel through Glasgow to see these bands.
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: Same with Aberdeen, Dundee, they've got to.
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: In fact, when you were interviewing Chris Jericho a few
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: weeks back, he was going to AEW in Glasgow.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: So I seen that. And then he was on.
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: It was so.
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: Because like you were interviewing him one day and the
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: next day he was on a Scottish radio station.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Wow, that's a trip.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Kind of wild, right?
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: Straight on a plane, boom, into Glasgow. And then he
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: was on the radio station there. So that was pretty
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: awesome to see that.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: And do you think they had the wrestling over there,
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: like Pat said, for tax reasons too?
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Well, no, they just do world tours.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: Wrestling's a global thing.
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: So we went to WrestleMania in Vegas last year, 2025.
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: And then it was meant to go to New Orleans
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: last year.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: This year.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: But they realized they made so much money in Vegas
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: that they went back to Vegas.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: But, you know, it wasn't the best. You can only
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: do Vegas so many times. I like Vegas.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Oh, I love it.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: I'm a gambler, man. They love my money.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Our guests this morning, John and Leanne Herbert, they live

  Speaker 1: So that'll be our two weeks.

  Speaker 2: So you'll get to meet a bunch of JR listeners
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: tomorrow evening on.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: The Rockford River. I see it's sold out now.

  Speaker 2: It's been sold out for a little while, yeah.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Where are you guys staying? Near iDrive?
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so we're in iDrive just now. But when the
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: boat got announced, we booked overnight in a hotel near Sanford. Oh, okay.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: So we're going to do an overnight.
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: So we're going to drive through. overnight and then buy.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that way you can have some drinks and not
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: have to worry about it.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's what I wanted to ask. Yeah, you guys,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: do you have Uber over there? Yeah.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: I didn't know. He's not a Europe dude. I'm not
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: a Europe dude. Bob, they also have electricity.
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: Well.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Since we've.
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: Been here, so usually in our two-week trip, we're always Uber, Lyft, Uber, Lyft, Uber, Lyft.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: We've been using Waymo over here.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, have you?
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: The driverless car. They're all over the place out in
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: that part of town.
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: So bizarre.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Everyone stops, takes.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: Pictures, videos. I mean, it's awesome.
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: So this is how cool it was, right? So it
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: let me link my YouTube premium account. So when I
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: jump in the car, my YouTube playlist comes up. but
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: it also lets you link the iHeartRadio up to it.
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: So when we jump in, it plays WGRR.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: When you get in.
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: That's cool.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: We've done that last night.
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: You can pick the air con temperature. You can push
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: the driver's seat forward more or back.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: And you don't have to talk to the driver.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: Was it weird the first time you got in, there
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: was no driver?
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. It's so, so surreal.
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: But it's the reaction from people on the sidewalk.
• 27:18
  Speaker 5: People outside on the sidewalk.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Everybody's filming you.
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: Like that. What was that couple like last night.
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: In the hotel? We got into one. So we did
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: a kind of hack. We went to Halloween Horror Nights
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: last night. But instead of going on to the main
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: area where the parking lot is for rideshare, we were
• 27:33
  Speaker 5: building a hard walk.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: The valet area? The drop. She's right there.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: And then just walk to 10 minutes.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: That's great.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: So it's awesome.
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: But when we were getting into it, it always has
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: to pull over to find a safe spot to park
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: before you guys can get in. And it looks as
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: if it's going to crash because it pulled right tight
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: into the side. And everybody's like, hey, man, I've seen
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: a lot of AI stuff.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be getting any of this.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: It's like that last night. Watch Terminator.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: I watched Terminator. Don't get me wrong. A lot of
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: people are scared of them.
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: You know, I think it's been really– I'll give you this.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: It's cheaper than Uber and Lyft.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Well, they're also rolling out the– what you would call it–
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Elon Musk's driverless cars. The Tesla ones? The Tesla driverless cars.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: It's going to initially just be like general airports, they're
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: rolling that out. So that's going to be, and they
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: do say that that one's also going to be priced
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: more reasonable than the other ride shares.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: I don't know if that's the one that I'm going
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: to bring up, but there's something that they're going to
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: market in this area.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: It's coming soon.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: It's the Tesla one.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: Are you sure the one that, Walt?
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Well, when Johnny, who we work with, when he was
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: talking about it, he said, you can buy the thing
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: for like $ 38, 000, right? American, $ 38, 000, which is not that
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: expensive for a car nowadays.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: And Pat, he can have that thing drive him to work.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: And then while he's at work, it'll go and pick
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: people up and make him money.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I'm dead serious.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that's a Tesla thing or not.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I don't think it is.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: That's why when you said that's a Tesla thing, I'm like, no,
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: this thing ain't even here. I know that's not here either,
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: but he was talking about it yesterday in a meeting,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: and I was like.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: He goes, well, I won't.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Be driving people around making money. I don't want people
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: in my car. And I'm like, I'm going to be
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: getting your keys off your desk. I'm going to have
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: Bob's taxis.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: I love it.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Well, we're running out of time here. I wanted to
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: say thank you again for coming in, guys. It was
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: good to see you.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: And the shirts.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: Phenomenal.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Look, in case you missed this before, this was the
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: AI picture they had to promote. our art. Rock the river.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: And mine, he crisscrossed my desire to be a drawbridge
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: operator with a tollbooth operator. Tollbooth operator is a dying
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: gig here now.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: I know that. Everything's automated now, you know? That's the thing.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: But drawbridge, you're always going to have to have someone there.
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: You need to show me a drawbridge. I've never seen
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: a drawbridge where we've been here.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, really?
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: You've got to get over to the intercoastal.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: There's plenty of them.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: Plenty of them.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: But now they're making most of those bridges, Pat.
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: At least here, like Smyrna, whatever, most of them, they
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: don't even have the bridge anymore, which kind of sucks.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: The North Bridge does, so there's one for you.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: One other thing before we go. I wanted to say
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: thank you again for the other year when our German Shepherd, Juno,
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: passed away.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, you're welcome, man.
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: That was cool. These two, I guess, heard us talking
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: about it, and it was still, I'm like tearing up
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: right now. I loved, loved, loved that dog, as did
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: my wife. And it was sudden cancer, and it was
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: just so quick. We'll never get over it. These two
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: created a keepsake that we have hanging in our family
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: room right now.
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: Awesome, man.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Me, my wife, daughter, and Juno around the fire pit.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: On one of the very cold days that we had.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Look at the goosebumps I'm getting now.
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: And when I arrived, I was completely blown away. And guys,
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: that's one of the nicest things that I've ever had
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: anyone do.
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: Well, do you know, it's actually very close to our heart.
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: We had a cat for 16 years.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: We got it when we got married.
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: And he passed away this year. And so see when
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: he passed, you know, Unless you're a pet owner.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: You don't know that. You don't get it.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: It's your kid.
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: I totally. And then when that happened, I'm like, Jesus.
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: And so it put me right back to that.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: So definitely. It is that. Yeah.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: In your stomach. Just you can't get it out.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: I feel your pain, man.
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: It's not an experience.
• 31:30

• 31:33
  Speaker 5: We got a new kitten.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Okay. On that subject. You know how like.

  Speaker 4: Stop. Stop.
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: You know how, like, you have to fill out the
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: things that you brought back?
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Sorry, just spit talk. Things that you brought back with

  Speaker 2: She's north of 10 years of age, right?
• 32:01
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: We're going to say she's about eight.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, okay, yeah.
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: Soon AC's trying to get rid of it.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: Now, my daughter would kill me.
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: It's only got 200,000 miles on it.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: But, you know, it's like a Honda. It'll run forever. Now,

• 32:27
  Speaker 2: fit my fat ass.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: So that's why I'll wash it. And if this logo
