  Speaker 2: us here inside the Treehouse. Dan O'Malley along with Trey Trenholm.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Thank you for being here at the start of a
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: brand new week inside the Treehouse. Lots of exciting things
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: to get to, not only this week, but also today.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: And I think we should start, Trey, where any smart
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: journalist would start. You know how they say, like, on
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: the news, if it bleeds, it leads? Yes. Well, if
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: it shits, then... It hits. It hits, yes. If it shits,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: it hits. That's it, yeah. So that's where we are
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: starting today, inside the treehouse. Am I overreacting? My boyfriend
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: came home so drunk, he vomited and shit on the floor. No,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: you are not overreacting. I don't care. What follows through
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: the remainder of this story? Nothing you do short of murder.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Maybe even murdering him may not be overreacting.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I did a lot of embarrassing things in 25 years
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: of alcoholism, but I never shat myself. Nor vomited on
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: the floor.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: I can say that in some of my drunken exploits, I, too,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: have never shit on the floor, at least that no
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: one's told me. I will say, though, there was one
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: time where I thought the dirty clothes hamper was the bathroom,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: and I did go number one in it. Talk about
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: putting the relationship to the test with my girlfriend, who's
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: now my wife, so it's on her now.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I might have peed myself, but I never shat myself.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: It's a weird line, right? Like, yeah, sure. Peed myself
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: plenty of times. Peed on some things. Maybe even accidentally
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: on another person. But never shit on myself. Number one,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: we're kind of okay with. Number two, okay, now it's
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: time for rehab. For context, she says, I'm a 25-year-old female.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Work mornings in an office. And my boyfriend, who's 27,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: works nights as a bartender. So tonight I went to
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: bed around 11, only to be woken up by a
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: soaking wet man crawling over me at 3 a.m. I
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: jerk awake.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: What are you doing?
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: I hear my boyfriend's voice. Going to bed. I'm relieved
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: that it's my boyfriend and not a random man, but
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: still confused about the general wetness. Then I hear gagging,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: so I turn my phone flashlight on and see he's
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: on his side, propped up on pillows and just drooling
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: on his pillow. I have to pee, so I get
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: up to go to the bathroom. I turn the light
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: on And it's like someone exploded in there. Vomit, poop, towels,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: a jar of aquifer that's open, and various other bathroom objects,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: all just on the ground. I've never seen someone get
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: so drunk they shit themselves before. So I start looking
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: up alcohol poisoning syndrome. This is a sign of a
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: good woman. When she's worried about you dying first, before
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: dumping you, that's a sign of a good woman. She
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: goes on to say, for the next two hours, I
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: laid in bed next to him, monitoring his breathing and
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: skin temperature, not knowing if I should take him to
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: the hospital. I'm pretty sure he's fine, but definitely going
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: to feel like shit tomorrow.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: So is Aquifer a lotion?
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know, Trey. I see it in the stores.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a moisturizing thing or if
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: it's a makeup remover. I don't know.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I'm curious what we were doing with lotion.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: It's a tub of goo. And you're right, Trey. She
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: said it looked like somebody exploded in there and who
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: knows what else he was up to before.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: He went oopsies. Oh, I can't. Yeah, you're right. No,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: you're not overreacting.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Honest to God, everything she said so far seems like underreacting.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: If you're a bartender, it's a great irony that bartenders
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: are some of the worst drinkers because... you see every
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: night what, what your concoctions do to people. And, and,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: and maybe it has taken years on the other side
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: as being sober to go, yeah, I don't, I don't
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: want to look like I, I am embarrassed that I
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: once was that person that I'm, I'm now, you know, looking.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: At, it is a weird thing. You're right. Because it is, it's,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: it's just as constant red flags when you're on the
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: watching side.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Uh, She goes on to say, I moved to the
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: living room, but I heard him get up and vomit again.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: And the showers running again, too. I've never seen him
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: this bad. He's like a drunk salamander. Now it's 6 a.m.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: and I'm pissed. This is the second night in a
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: row he's come home from work drunk, vomiting and making
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: a general ruckus. I feel like he's a grown up
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: and he should know when he's hit his limit. How
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: the F did he even get home? His car isn't here.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: So I guess a coworker dropped him off. I'm not
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: going to be a dick. All right, she says, I'm
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: not trying to be a dick. I know we all
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: have embarrassing nights, but I feel like he needs to
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: get his stuff together. I feel bad that this is
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: icking me out, and I feel bad that I'm mad
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: about this. Am I overreacting? Can I just say real
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: quick that Gen Z's tendency to stop and assess and
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: evaluate is actually quite impressive because that's not how our
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: generations work. If this is you and me, Trey, coming
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: home drunk as a skunk and pooping and vomiting all
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: over the place, Are significant others going to be rightfully
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: very mad? They're not going to stop and think, what
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: my reaction should be to this? No, they're going to
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: start throwing things, probably you, out the door.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, or you're going to be sleeping in the mess
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: you've made.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a Gen X woman will drag you out of
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the bed by your feet into the bathroom and into
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: the middle of your mess and close the door on
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: you and she will go back to sleep and let
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: you deal with whatever you find the next morning.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I've... Yeah, you really... The fact that you're even
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: questioning whether you're being the asshole or not shows probably
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: too much thought about it. Especially... And again... In my 20s... Now,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I'll say this. We would do that, and then we
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: would get up and go to work the next day.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: But if your partner isn't a part of the festivities
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: and she has to get up for work, yeah, you're
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: totally screwing her over. Oh, yeah. You've kept her up
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: all night, and then she's got to go to work,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: and that makes for just a really bad day. And
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: if it's two nights in a row, yeah, you should
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: know your limits. That was one thing. I don't know how,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know why, but for most of my drinking career,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: I had one fail safe, which is when I hit
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: a point, it was like a light flashed on. It
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: was like, go home. Do not pass. Go do not
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: collect $ 200. Go home. And when I was faithful to
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: that light, I generally kept me out of trouble when
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I wasn't. That's when shit went sideways.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: It's interesting. Cause I don't think I have that, but
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: you do. And my wife, Tara, has it. There's been
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: numerous times when she was younger, and her friends have
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: corroborated this, where they'd be out doing something, and then
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: they were like, where did Tara go? She would just
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: hit that moment and be like, got to go, and then, foom,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: she's gone.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: For a year, I would tell people, hey, don't be
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: offended by it or anything else. If I disappear, it's
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: just I have hit that point, and I have to
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: go home. I'm not, I'm not going to say goodbye.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: I may not say goodbye. I may not do anything.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: I'm just gone.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And this is also the difference between this scenario
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: is the difference between someone like you, Trey, and like me,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: a professional drinker versus someone who's just, who doesn't really
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: know their limits because they're letting it rip a few
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: times a week, as opposed to The consistent too much drinking?
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Because when you drink too much consistently, you constantly move
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: the bar, right? And even you, as an alcoholic, you
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: knew when the light hit, it was like, okay, I
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: gotta go. So, while being an alcoholic, you were semi-responsible
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: with it, and you knew what your limit was, but
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: you still would drink enough to kill a small animal.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Whereas in this guy's situation, he's just bartending, he's just partying, right?
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: And because he's just partying, he's not paying attention to
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: any signals. He's, he's not doing it every day where it's,
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: you're drinking a little bit every day and then eventually
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: a little bit every day becomes a lot every day.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: And next thing you know uh you you can you
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: can drink anybody under the table if you need to.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: But if you're a bartender you should know better you
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: should and and two nights in a row you're probably
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: gonna end up getting fired because god knows how you're.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Leaving the bar if you're Oh, yeah, that's very true.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: And your co-workers probably hate you.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Oh, they do. Oh, they hate your guts. Now, I
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: will say this. He's 27, according to this story. So
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: he is right on the precipice. Because when you hit
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: your mid-30s, I'm sorry, when you hit your late 20s
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: and then start creeping up to 30, there is a
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: point at which you can no longer do the things
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: you used to do.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: I didn't get that. That's probably why I ended up
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: in AA. Yeah.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: It's because you are a consistent hard drinker. That's the difference.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: But when you don't do it on a regular daily
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: basis and you just kind of blow it out every
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: so often, you do it one more time right before
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: you turn 30 or right when you turn 30, and
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: then you swear you'll never do it again because you
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: can't recover the way you used to in your early 20s.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: And then it happens again, like 10 years later.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't really get that until I started getting
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: into the end of my drinking career in my forties.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: And then, and then I was actually drinking less, but
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: it was taking its toll on me. But, uh, and
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: that was like, yeah, I, I should have been hung
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: over a lot more than I was. And I think
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: my one saving grace throughout all of it is I
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: always drink a lot of water. Yeah.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: It does help by the way.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. I can't fathom what a hangover would feel like
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: in my 50s. I just can't.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Okay, well, it's not only just a normal hangover in
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: your 50s, especially since it's been over a decade since
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: you've had alcohol. Now imagine that you didn't just fall
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: off the wagon.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: It ran over me.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: You took a running start off of it, and then
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: it turned around and ran you over like what happened
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: to this guy. where you get so hammered, you puke
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: and you poop yourself in the bathroom. Now imagine that
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: level of a hangover in your early fifties. I.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, and sadly at this point it would probably
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: be three drinks and that would, that's what would happen.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: It might actually be, it wouldn't take much to get
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: you to that point. No.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, I, yeah. All I can see is just, you know, just,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: sitting in the shower, just sobbing and in my own mess.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: And calling up your sponsor and being like, can AA
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: come to me today? Please don't make me go there.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: I know I need a meeting, but can it please
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: come to my home?
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, I can't, I can't, I can't even, if I
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: had to go back into AA and get a desire
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: chip and start over.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, Well, and not only that, but that level
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: of a hangover in your early 50s isn't going to
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: be just one day. I mean, that's at least two.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, I fully would expect, if I had to do that,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I would have to go to one of those IV
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: places just to make it stop. Or have them come
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: to my place and just be like, stick me.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And that's the thing, too, is you got to
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: be real clear in your messaging. It's like, Do you
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: want IV fluids, or do you want us to end
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: it all for you? Yeah. Which bag would you like?
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: We have two services here at the IV drop-by place.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: We can save you, or we can end it for you.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: The euthanasia special, yeah, take that, please.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, man. That is... I hadn't thought about that. You're right.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, like that level of hangover in your fifties,
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: especially in your case, not having had a drink in
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: that amount of time, ungodly to think of. So no
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: young lady, you are not overreacting. You need to have
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: a talk with this man.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Ultimatum should be thrown down at this point for,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: and listen, and I'll say this for his own good too,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: because he, I wish someone in my, especially in my
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: late twenties would have set me down and go, Hey,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: knock it off. And might've, you know, so yeah, for his,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: for his sake and yours, put your foot down.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Just not in that mess that he made.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: Am I overreacting for ending things with a guy because
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: he complained that his apartment didn't have a dishwasher. She says,
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: I'm a 21-year-old female, live off campus in my college town.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: I met this guy who's 23, lives in an apartment
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: complex close to campus. I was looking for housing next year,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: and I really liked his apartment. After we finished doing
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: what adults do, I asked him how much he liked
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: the place, and he started talking about things that don't
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: really matter to this story. Then he started complaining about
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: the kitchen. He said the leasing agency told him he
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: would get a full kitchen, but he doesn't have one
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: because there's no dishwasher. And he had his parents call
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: the leasing agency to complain about the lack of a
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: dishwasher because they thought the term full kitchen was misleading.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: She goes on. I've been looking at city codes on
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: housing stuff because I've had a lot of problems with
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: my own leasing agency. So I know our city defines
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: a full kitchen as having a sink, a range, or
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: a built-in stovetop, an oven, and a fridge. So I
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: told him a dishwasher would be an amenity, not a requirement,
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: and was just ready to laugh it off. He continued
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: saying he thinks a full kitchen includes a dishwasher and
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: his parents do too. He then said, sorry, I wasn't
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: raised poor. I've always had a dishwasher. So I just
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: thought it was included in every kitchen. He said this
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: in a mocking tone mixed with disgust. She says, I
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: was and still am appalled that a 22 year old
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: man would be so out of touch with reality. And
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: the fact that he had his parents fight his battles
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: for him didn't help my impression of him.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: She's not looking at this the correct way.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: How so?
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: He's giving her a hint.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: By repeatedly saying he doesn't have a dishwasher?
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Yes! Get busy, sweetie!
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Didn't bring you here just for the sex, you know.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Hang it out, make him a sandwich, and go get
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: on those dishes.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Because obviously they don't clean themselves.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Come on. Oh. She says, I've also always grown up
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: with a dishwasher, but I know not everyone has or
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: needs one. I have friends and family. I can't believe
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: this entire post is about a freaking dishwasher.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she was called mom.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: She says, I left his apartment feeling so icked out
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: by his comment about not being raised poor, and the
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: next day I texted him to say I didn't want
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: to keep seeing him because I didn't feel a spark.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: You know what else there's not a spark in? His dishwasher.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Gone.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you ever notice that the dishwashing liquid isn't named Doug?
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Uh-huh.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, man. She ends it by saying, I just don't
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: want to be with someone who talks about people being
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: less fortunate than him the way he did, so am
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: I overreacting for ending things with him, or are my
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: housemates right? Her housemates basically say it's no big deal. See,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: once again, you have another young person trying to look
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: in the mirror and see if something they did was
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: wrong when it's very obvious this guy's a giant prick.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: No, she just needs to get the don and a
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: sponge and get to work.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: And if she wants to be bougie about it, some
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: of those yellow gloves will go up to the elbow.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Sure. If you ask nice, he'll get you a drying rack.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: Starting to see why you've been single so long. Let's

  Speaker 2: life of the roof. That's something you guys look at.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: It's not just about shingles. Absolutely, Dan.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: A lot of homeowners underestimate the amount of attic heat
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: buildup that their home has. Affects their AC system, affects
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: their roof condition long term, affects just overall their home.
• 19:44

• 19:47
  Speaker 3: with the homeowner. We try to educate them, make sure that...
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: they have the proper ventilation. There is a calculation of this.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: We walk them around. If they're interested in going around,
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: we show them what their intakes look like, what their
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: exhaust system looks like, and try to make the best
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: fit for their home. So that's a very common thing
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: that we do. And it should be done every time

  Speaker 2: the treehouse. 833-COOK-DFW. All right, Trey. Today is Tuesday. October 27th, 2026.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Let's celebrate today with some birthdays. Troy Gentile is 33.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: I think I'm saying that right. He is Barry Goldberg
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: on The Goldbergs, one of the best modern sitcoms for
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: 80s nostalgia. That's one of those shows I've always heard
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: good things about, and I haven't watched it, and I
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: don't know why.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Same. Same.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: Maybe I keep forgetting about it, but it's supposed to
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: be great. I need to watch it. Add that to
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: my list. For some reason, the Ball family is still
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: mentioned in some pop culture things. Lonzo Ball is 29,
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: is an NBA guard and former number two overall draft pick.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Are any of the Ball kids good that play Ball?
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: One of them, I believe, is actually turned out to
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: be pretty lamello, I want to say, is the one
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: that's Um, I know one of them is actually solid.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Okay. But if I remember right, it was daddy. He
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: was telling anyone who would listen, how his sons are
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: going to revolutionize the game. And they were the greatest
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: ever or something.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: And he came out with their, their shoes that sucked
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: that were like $ 500 a pop. Dad also said he
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: was better than Jordan.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Uh, so, you know, Full-on hype machine. But, you know,
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: the Ball family, especially Daddy Ball, is a great example of,
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: and there's a number of them, but he's a great
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: example of, you can say some of the most outlandish,
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: stupid stuff, and people will listen to it because it
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: is so stupid and outlandish. Stephen A. Smith is another one. Oh,
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: I think Stephen A.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: Smith is a completely different category.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: Like, he's not in the same category as the balls,
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: but he says outlandish things, uh, for attention.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: He's mastered it. I mean, that's, he is his own
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: hype man. I mean, he, he is a masterclass in, uh,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: self-promotion and always keeping his name relevant.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Dude's a troll. Very, very rich troll. He has about
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: an ounce of credibility. Whereas daddy ball has none.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, I think he has more. I disagree with you
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: there on Stephen A.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: I used to agree with what you're saying, and then
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: I see him putting on a cowboy hat and trolling
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Cowboys fans, and it's like... Oh, well, how are you
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: ever a respected journalist?
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Well, number one, it's because he has Michael Irvin on
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: his first take every Monday, so he absolutely trolls Irvin
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: every time. And... he is, I'll at least give him consistency.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: It's not like he just started hating the Cowboys. He's
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: always been on that bandwagon.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: That is true.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: That's not a brand new thing. He couldn't stand it forever.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: I just always think about how someone that's on a
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: national show there, I've seen compilation videos of, of him
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: just messing things up left and right. As far as,
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: you know, certain basic facts and figures and things that
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: he would cite during some of his arguments, getting names
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: of players wrongs is like, it is bad.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: He's, listen, he's very good at what he does. I
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: give the other, he's like Colin Coward. He can say
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: one thing one day and he'll say the opposite thing
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: the next day and never care that he's contradicting himself
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: or anything else. Whatever, because he realizes the news cycle,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: it changes every day. I mean, they've mastered the news
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: cycle where no one cares what they said yesterday. It's
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: all about what they say today.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And it drives people like me crazy because I
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: remember what they said yesterday and I'm apparently in the
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: minority and they change it today. So they change on
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: a whim. They have no real. They have no authenticity. Right.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: And so for me, that's nails on a chalkboard. But
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: it works because enough of the masses soak it in
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: that they get buckets of money thrown at them, even though.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: They kind of suck.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Well, and there's some sport, like Stephen A. Smith, like basketball,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: he is, I would consider, very knowledgeable. I think he's
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: also really knowledgeable about, like, boxing. Other sports, I think
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: he's more hot air.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: But, you know, like I said, he's mastered it. Dude
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: got paid.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: Exactly. So it's... Yes, there is a certain amount of
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: envy in there, but also because it's also in my mind,
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: there's also a fair amount of like. Like, I don't
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: typically begrudge anyone for making money like it's very rare
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: that you will hear me say somebody sold out. Like,
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: I always hated it when like fans of bands would say, oh,
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: such and such band sold out. I'm like, no, they're
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: making a living.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Let them make a living.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: That's OK. It's fine. If they're making a living, then
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: they can make more music that we all love. Why
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: are you hating on this? It's like, why does your
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: favorite band have to live in a van for you
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: to care about? Right.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, just because they made a song that they're not
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: a secret anymore and other people like doesn't mean they
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: sold out.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: No, it just means that they want their kids to
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: go to a nice school. So, yeah. But on the
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: other hand, if you do it where you just like
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: you actually do sell out and you're doing something like
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: just morally reprehensible or something. Like if you built your
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: name on being a credible journalist and then you, I
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: don't know, it just rubs my skin the wrong way
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: when someone's clearly just taking advantage of the situation and,
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: and people don't see it.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: I don't think, you know, I think that's just part
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: of our society now. They just don't care. It's, it's
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: literally everyone. I mean, it's, this isn't new. but it's
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: from sports to politics, everything people realize it was, I
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: always say Bill Clinton revolutionized politics. And one of the
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: ways he revolutionized politics is George Stephanopoulos. And some of
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: those guys realized that they could say one thing one
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: day and another thing the next day. And if they
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: sold it the right way, no one was going to
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: look back and go, Oh, Hey, what about that? They
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: just kept moving forward. And Stephen A. Smith, I mean,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: first take is a, and let's be honest, how he
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: got really good at this was being opposite. And now
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: you want to talk about someone I can't stand is
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: Skip Bayless.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Yes, that is a piece of human trash.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he is an absolute piece of shit. And that
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: goes back to him working for.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Dallas Times-Herald.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was about to say, was it Morning News
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: or Times-Herald? And, you know, saying shit like Troy Aikman
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: was gay and stuff like that. So, I mean, he's
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: been he is a fucking troll.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: So I realize this, that I am probably in the
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: minority on these types of things. I'm the person that
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: remembers the thing you said yesterday. And now today you're
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: completely changing and pretend like you didn't say the thing
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: from the day before. And so that is, I guess,
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: something that I have to contend with because it absolutely
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: drives me nuts. there's a lack of accountability it's like
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: if you said uh two days ago that up was
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: down and then now you're saying down is up i
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: remember that why are you getting why are people letting
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: you get away with this because they don't remember it
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: drives me crazy you.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Know they're they're in in the moment they're listening to
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: what you say and then it's in one ear out
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: the other they they're scrolling on to the next.
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: Thing yeah speaking of scrolling on to the next thing
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: kelly osborne is 42 have you seen her lately I
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: think the last time I saw her was at some
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: award show where she and the Osbournes were doing some
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: sort of thing in remembrance of Ozzy. And some people
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: thought that she looked more like Ozzy's bones. Skeletons?
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You were talking about the news cycle and everything else.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: This is where I simply don't... it piques my curiosity,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: but that I, not enough that I'm actually going to
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: go investigate it and see why, because I remember she
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: looked skeletal. I mean, look, and I don't know if
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: it was that she has a health problem or Ozipic
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: gone too far. And again, I don't care enough to
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: really go research it.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: So it just.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: Remains a question in my head.
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: And, you know, it's fine. It's fine for it to
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: be that way, because there's also a fine line with
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: modern culture. Right. So on one hand, we're supposed to
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: care about one another and be concerned about someone. If
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: you see some sort of drastic physical change. Right. Like
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: when Chadwick Boseman was all of a sudden drastically thin.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: And then we learned he had stomach cancer, then he died.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: Then we see Kelly Osbourne and we're like, oh, no.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: She looks really, really bad. Is something wrong? And then
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: some people are like, whoa, whoa, whoa. It is not
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: okay for you to be commenting on a woman's body,
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: her body, her business. Okay, but some of us worry
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: that she might be ill.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: No.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: Okay. Then there's another segment. It's like, clearly her GLP-1
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: meds have gone too far and someone needs to be investigated.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: And so you never really know what you're allowed to
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: comment on. And then other times people are like, well,
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: if you didn't say anything, then you don't care. You're
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: basically screwed no matter what. I, you know, I, I.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Don't, I could give two craps because, and I think
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: you and I would agree on this. When you look
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: unhealthy and it can go, you're too thin or you're
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: too fat, but when you look unhealthy, uh, it raises
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: questions like Ariana Grande. I am a senior label. Last
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: time I saw her skeletal, it's like what beautiful girl,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: what happened?
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Uh, You know, and I'm like, why? Is it peptides?
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Is it GLP-1s? What is happening? And she's not the
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: only one where you look and go, okay, you've taken
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: weight loss too far.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: And now granted, this is a personal thing, but I
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: think you and I would easily agree Ariana Grande was
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: not someone that you saw and like, oh yeah, girl
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: needs to lose some weight.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: She was thin.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: She was already thin.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Anyway.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: Kelly Osbourne, 42 other birthdays today. This is a fun one.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: Patrick Fugit is 44. This, this is a, he was
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: a star of a movie that I need to reevaluate that.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: It's not that I didn't love it. I love almost famous,
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: but that may be like a top 10 movie of mine.
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: Like it's not one that I want to rewatch all
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: the time, but I love that movie. It is so good.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: He was the star of Almost Famous. He is now 44.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Played the teenage rock journalist.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever seen that movie.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Oh, Trey, do yourself a favor. It's based on some
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: true events. So the movie is Almost Famous. In the movie,
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: you got Billy Crudup. So Patrick Fugit plays a teenage
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: freelance journalist doing a story on an up-and-coming band for
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: the Rolling Stones, for the magazines. Rolling Stone.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: Kate Hudson in this movie?
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: Yes, she is. It's got a stellar cast. Frances McDormand
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: is in it. Zooey Deschanel is in it. Billy Crudup.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: Even though you just said her name and I can
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: see her face, my brain just went blank. Kate Hudson's
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: in it. Phenomenal movie. It's loosely based on things that
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: actually happened to writer-director Cameron Crowe, who who wrote and
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: directed the movie. He was a teenage freelance writer for
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: Rolling Stone back in the day. So this is a
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: movie that's kind of loosely based on some stuff that
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: happened to him. Phenomenal movie. God, it's good. It's also
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: where you get the scene in the movie where Billy
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: Crudup is on top of a house or a garage
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: and screams, I'm a golden god, and then jumps into
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: a pool. It's so good.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: I think I've seen parts of that movie. I just
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: don't think I've ever sat down and watched it, the
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: full thing.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Go for it. God, it's good. Matt Drudge is 60,
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: founder of the Drudge Report.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: Is that still a thing? I don't know.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: That's part of the reason I wanted to read it.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: It was a staple of our show prep back in
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: the early 2000s radio days.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's still a thing.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: All right, well, good for him.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that, I mean.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: He was kind of a pioneer, uh, in, I don't
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: even know how you would describe that, that site, uh,
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: kind of a conglomeration of news stories.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It was sort of a cross between the smoking
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: gun and like the, like whatever the, whatever the political
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: version of it would be like daily beast or something.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: The Huffington post maybe. I mean, yeah, I, I, It
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: was political, but it wasn't... It was kind of, yeah,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: it was kind of a little TMZ, a little this,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: a little that. But, I mean, it was a force
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: to be reckoned with at one point.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And then I don't know what happened. Then it
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: was just like, then one day we woke up and
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: it wasn't.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: Kind of like the smoking, I mean, the smoking gun's
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: still around, but it's not.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: I think TMZ, I swear, I think TMZ just.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: Beat them all. You know, I think you may be
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: right on that one. It became the mainstream, and those
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: other ones just kind of fell down, fell by the wayside.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: Marla Maples is 63, one of Donald Trump's ex-wives, mother
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: of Tiffany Trump. Dallas Mavericks former head coach Rick Carlisle
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: is 67. He was the coach of the Mavericks when
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: they won their title in 2011. Good job.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: You can still coach it. Pacers.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: I think so. Uh, then, uh, two more and I
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: think we'll be done.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: So, uh, Lee Greenwood, best known for God bless the USA. 84.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: He is writing that song all the way to the cemetery.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: He has written that. You want to talk about, cause
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: that song I think came out in the eighties.
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: It's old.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: Uh, like I, I feel like I first remember that
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: song around Desert Storm, which was 90.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Desert Storm was 90, 91. Yeah.
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: And then, yeah, I mean, he has, and that's one
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: of those things, that's an old school, I mean, there's
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: no telling how much he's made off that song.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: I want to do a search to find out. I
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: think I know the answer, but I'm curious. I bet it's...
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: Who do you think has made more money off of
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: one song? Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA or Mariah
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: Carey's All I Want for Christmas?
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Oh, Mariah Carey on that one.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, she makes like $ 6 million every year
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: based on that one song.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but... That would be... But... God bless... I mean... How.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: I'm willing to bet Lee Greenwood's God bless the USA
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: has made him more money than tub thumping has made Chumbawamba.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, that is.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's actually... I'm shocked at how low that is. What?
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Tell me. He said this, you know, Said no, nothing
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: is public, especially because he is the sole songwriter and
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: primary recording artist, but that they estimate between $ 5 and
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: $ 8 million since 1984. That's it?
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: That's... I... Well, you know what? Now that I'm thinking
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: about it, it kind of makes sense because that's a
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: song that doesn't get a ton of radio play, unlike
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas. So there's not
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: a whole lot of royalties coming in there from BMI ASCAP.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: But that's not, I mean, well, BMI ASCAP died, I guess,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: 10 years ago. Because, yeah, that's one of those things.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: Bars used to pay thousands and thousands a month if
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: you had a jukebox. And now it's like 30 bucks.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: But that's also, unlike Mariah Carey's song that comes around
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: every year, Lee Greenwood's song comes around wars and election years.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: And it never stops.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you feel restless and anxious? Feel like something's

  Speaker 2: We're happy to have you here. We have heard of
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: No Shave November. We have heard of Dry January. We
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: have heard of, there's probably some other ones, but now
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: there's a new month to think about, Trey. Have you
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: heard of Locktober?
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: Surprisingly, yes. Are we talking about where men put themselves
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: in chastity?
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: Belts. Not a woman named Chastity.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: Got it, yeah.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: I needed to say that because I knew a girl
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: in Heist named Chassid.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: They're... Locked themselves up in Chassid. I have heard of this.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: I did not know it was... And I couldn't even
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: tell you where I read about this, but years ago
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: I heard something about it. And... Or I saw something...
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: I swear it was like Tumblr. So they're... You know what?
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: This easily seems like something that would have originated on
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: Tumblr years ago. It is Lock Up Your Junk Month
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: in October, also known as Locktober. So for most people,
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: October signals the arrival of fall weather, apple cider, maybe
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: some Halloween parties. But for a section of people, the
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: month goes by another name, Locktober. And its meaning is
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: definitely R-rated. Locktober is an annual month-long celebration around chastity
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: observed by many in the BDSM community. Participants wear a
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: chastity cage around their junk that prohibits them from having sex,
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: often under the stewardship of a dominant partner who holds
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: the key. So if you're at the gym and you
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: hear like a clink, clank, clink, clank coming from somewhere,
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: that might be a Locktober participant. I, I try, I
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: don't ever want to really fetish shame, but I, why? I,
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: I am, I'm right there with you.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: Um, I, cause you, you can't even get an erection
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: in these things. I don't think, I think it's like, you're, if.
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: You did, it'd be real uncomfortable, real fast.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: All I know is this, um, Okay. First of all,
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: never going to happen. I will not do this. Second
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: of all, even if I was one of those people
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: that did, I have to know where the key is
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: at all times. I need to see it at all times.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: There is no way I'd ever feel comfortable that key
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: being out of sight. Cause I swear to God, if
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: we lose that key.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: There, yeah, there is. So yeah, this is one of those,
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: we talked about this on the radio show years ago
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: and probably throughout the years of, would you trust your
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: partner enough to handcuff you?
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: Look, I trust my wife. I love my wife. I'm
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: not going to let her handcuff me. Not because I
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: don't trust her, but because I can't handle it.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And it's one thing if you're talking about just
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: being handcuffed, but if you're locking up your junk And
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming these have like little padlocks or I don't.
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: I, I think so. Like the story that I saw,
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: it has a little padlock on the side kind of
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: a thing, but I think it's also like one of
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: those smaller luggage locks.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: So yeah. What, what do you do if, if she
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: loses the key or if, if he loses the key,
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: if someone loses the key, what do you do? Cause, uh,
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: finesse is required when you're dealing with stuff down there. Yeah.
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, you better know a really good locksmith.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That, you know, and, and have an NBA.
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: Like, you know how they're saying these days, it's really
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: popular and wise to maybe skip higher education and go
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: into the trades because there's really good money to have
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: in it. You can be your own boss. It's skill-based labor,
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: all these great things with it. If you want to
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: go into locksmithing, just keep in mind that Locktober may
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: not be what you want it to be in the
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: locksmith industry.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: It might be like a freeze in Texas for plumbers.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: When they call you up and you go, okay, yeah,
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: that'll be $ 500, are they going to argue with you?
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It's kind of like the workers at the state
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: fair who really only work. the fair and then they're
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: off the rest of the year because that's how much
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: money they make during the run of the fair that's
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: that's the type of locksmith you could be just go
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: to a go to go to a city or a
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: place that was really into locktober san francisco and then
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: you can just make a living one month out of
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: the year just unlocking wieners charging a thousand dollars And
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: you could live in Tahiti the rest of the year.
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: You could make $ 600, 000 unlocking junk in one month.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: What happens? And I'm assuming that gay, straight, whatever. What
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: happens when, because I would assume if you're a man
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: and you're subjecting yourself through this, you're going to get
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: real cranky. Chances, you know, you get in a fight.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: You have no power. You have no power.
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: You will be on your best behavior because if you
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: get into a fight and you say the wrong thing,
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: what happens if he or she goes outside and throws
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: those keys down the storm drain? Or drops them in
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: the disposal and turns it on? Or wraps it in
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: peanut butter and cheese and feeds it to the dog?
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, these things could go real sideways real fast.
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, because then she can also go, oh, oh, really?
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go out to the bars. What are
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: you going to do?
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: You can't even stay at home and play with yourself.
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: Just wait till I get home. That is awful. Honey,
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: meet Tyrone.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: There ain't a lock big enough for him. Oh, God.
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: That'll do it for this episode of The Treehouse. I
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: think we've done some good work here, Trey. Good job, buddy.
• 47:55
