  Speaker 2: you know, you know one thing about the gas prices
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: mark the tax on the gallon of gas remains the same.

  Speaker 2: every day of the week.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Six But in many in many states, the taxes go
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: up and down all the time. Generally they go up,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: they never go down.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Some states do, but the price is Stagnantough, if the
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: oil companies are really whipping off the American public, and

  Speaker 1: half a mile to go anywhere.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: But what you do.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: You gotta go. You gotta go thirty miles to Georgetown
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: and wially Charleston is two hours to me. So it's
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: a big drug.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Sounds pretty exciting. Now Listen, a lot of people are
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: just saying, why is this guy? Is it? Just tell
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the truth? Did you move to South Carolina? And there's
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: something frustrating about it? It's a little annoying being there.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, the heat. It was one hundred and fourteen yesterday.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: It's unbelievable. Every day like today, it's supposed to be
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: one hundred and eight, it'll end up being one hundred eleven,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve, you know, by by eleven thirty yesterday, Mark,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: I had to go in the house. How to get
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: out of the school? Go out finishing?
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that explains it. It's the heat. If you
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: go down there and live and it's one hundred and
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: five every day, And this guy, every time he pulls
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: into the gas station he gets outraged.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Look at it? That what up?
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: All right? Just calm down, calm down. Thanks thanks for calling.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Let's go to uh rich in New Jersey. Rich. How
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: you doing.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: I called last week about my cousin. But in the meantime,
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: you're only a somebody when you know somebody or somebody. So, uh,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: I dance with Isabella Johnny at a wedding. That's another story.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: You know. The one great thing about this call is
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: nothing you're saying registers with anybody. Nothing makes sense. We
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: don't know what the hell. It's all disjoined, vague stuff
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: that we don't know what you're even saying.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: All right, all right, the Muslims washing their feet in
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: an airport? Okay, why don't they have their little basis
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: for Catholics to bless themselves with holy water when they
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: walk in?
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: What they do?
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: But it can well, I gotta be honest. If I
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: see Muslims were washing their feet in the airport, tell
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: me it looks pretty silly. But I don't get mad
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: about it. I don't say why don't they have? It
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: looks pretty stupid. It's really kind of stupid. Why did
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: they wash their feet? I don't even remember.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: It's a ritual or something for what.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: Before they pray?
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Is that it?
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I have no idea, but yeah, it
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: does look kind of silly, and uh, I don't know
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: why do it in airport when you're about to get
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: on a plane, which is as filthy places you can go.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Mark yess Mike.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: You mentioned that they have the fall stuff on the
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: shelves up in the shops in New York. They do
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: it down here in Florida. Walmart's got all their long
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: sleeve clothing and long sleeve shirts and pants out and
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: the fall stuff out there. Like it's gonna be another
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: three and a half months of ninety three weather. But
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: somehow or another, summer's over in Florida.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But let me ask you something down there in Florida,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: because up here, everybody's, oh my god, summer's over. It's
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Do you worry about that? Aren't you kind of glad
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: summer's over because for you it's too hot and something.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Yes, winter is the best three days of the year now.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you guys actually look forward to summer endings.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: It's great when it's over because now it'll be normal.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I do, I do.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: But it never ends.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: That's the problem.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: It never really ends.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: It kind of slows down a little bit, but it
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: never really ends.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: And when you're down there in Florida, don't you miss
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: like normal trees and normal you know, we have hills.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: I miss no trees, to be honestly, I lived in
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Manhattan for forty years. There are too many trees down here.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: You're obsessed with planting stuff and hedges and all they do,
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: all they ever do all day long is mowed the glass,
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: blow it into the drains and then it floods. So
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: it's quite a system.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll say, up here we have hills, and I
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: think you know you're driving uphill down here. It's all
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: flat there in Florida. Doesn't that get here?
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: It's not the hills, it's the mentally ill old people
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: who are driving that. They are impediments. They're more dangerous
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: than the hills.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, they drive, you mean they drive very slow,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: those old people slow.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Nobody signals, They just get over because they think they're
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: the only person on the road. Yeah, it's really quite
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: it's it's real eye opener. I drove a camp in
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: New York for a year and it wasn't as dangerous
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: as driving here.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very dangerous these old people. In fact, you
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: have to it's not just keep honking the horn. You
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: got to like tape the horn down with like duct tape.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: So yes, always honking.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: So you have to actually plow them through the intersection
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: because it's the only way to get them moving. If
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: they see flashing lights, forget about it, any flashing lights anywhere,
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: they come to a complete hall the panic, you know,
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: and then the other part of them you equate. That
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: equation is half the people down here spend the whole
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: afternoon in a bar and then they get out and
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: drive home.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, all right, well it's a good point,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: great call. Thanks. So if you're sending New York saying
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I gotta go to South Carolina, I gotta go to Florida, listen,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: it doesn't sound so great down there. Let's go to
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Pam in New Jersey. Pam, how you doing.
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: Hey. The reason for the foot washing in the Arab world, uh,
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: the biggest their their feet are very important because it
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: can add also be an insult. I had a student
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: who was fighting with another student. They were Arabic. Yeah,
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: and the one kid said, I throw my shoes at you,
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: and it's like the big insult because the feet are
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: closest to the ground considered dirty.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, there you go. You cleared it up. Still
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: sounds silly, but okay, thanks for that, Pam. Hey, we
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: got a lot to get to. We got a lot
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: of stuff to cover today, and don't forget. At noon
