  If you're a machine. It is a machine and we are the
• 0:07
  machine. We are the Chris and Mike show.
• 0:10
  Welcome boys and girls. We're back from a minute.
• 0:13
  We had a minute. We had a minute recording.
• 0:15
  It was awesome. And then we shut it down because
• 0:17
  we're like, you know what it was?
• 0:18
  Too, It was a rehearsal. It was, we just said it was too
• 0:20
  good. Like you guys, you can't have
• 0:22
  perfection like that. This is, you know, you're too
• 0:25
  young in the in the production to have perfection.
• 0:27
  So. Want to make sure we weren't
• 0:30
  nervous? Yeah, yeah, just practice, get
• 0:33
  the nerves out of the way. And now I'm.
• 0:36
  Shake it off. I'm diligently walking watching
• 0:39
  the the up uploading. It's it's it's it's kicking back
• 0:42
  up. It's in the 70s now which is
• 0:44
  weird. There you go.
• 0:47
  I think your computer just had a glitch.
• 0:50
  It's possible, It's possible. So this is the Chris and Mike
• 0:53
  show. As I said, he's Mike, I'm Chris.
• 0:55
  We have no scheduled agenda today.
• 0:56
  We're just going to talk about whatever comes to mind.
• 0:58
  No guest. It's a guest free episode, which
• 1:00
  is kind of nice because I was thinking about it the other day.
• 1:01
  Like I like just. You're stuck with us.
• 1:04
  I like when you and I just talked though, you know, I like
• 1:06
  Kevin. We need some of those.
• 1:08
  I like Kevin Guest for sure. So I was thinking.
• 1:11
  I do too. I was thinking maybe we make
• 1:12
  Tuesdays just the Chris and Mike show and then we leave Fridays
• 1:15
  open for interpretation with special guests and dialogue.
• 1:19
  You know, Outer Limits and shit like that.
• 1:23
  If we ever become the most sought after podcast in America,
• 1:26
  you know, where people are vying to get on the show, I'll make
• 1:30
  you that rule, but I don't, I don't think we're there yet.
• 1:33
  So just take whatever guest you can get on.
• 1:35
  I agree with you though. I, I was excited driving home
• 1:38
  today thinking, man, I get to talk to my brother, you know?
• 1:40
  And then I signed on earlier like, oh, there he is.
• 1:44
  So you. Know, talking about being on the
• 1:47
  same wavelength, we were having the same thoughts at the same
• 1:50
  time. I just started thinking about
• 1:51
  that yesterday. I kind of got excited.
• 1:52
  I'm like, Oh yeah, it's just us tomorrow.
• 1:54
  Yeah, yeah. Which is cool.
• 1:56
  It is cool that we did have some nice feedback from your buddy
• 1:59
  Kyle, which was nice. And then I I shared that with
• 2:01
  one of our other guests and and he kind of he kind of said the
• 2:05
  same thing. So that was cool that that.
• 2:08
  I'll tell you what, Nate said. Let's see if I can pull it up.
• 2:10
  And definitely invite Nate back on because the little bit that I
• 2:13
  got to interact with him, I really enjoyed talking to him
• 2:16
  and I've gotten a lot of super positive feedback on his
• 2:20
  episode. So if he's listening to Nate,
• 2:22
  everybody really enjoyed your episode.
• 2:24
  They got a lot out of it. I've actually heard people say
• 2:26
  they've went back and listened to it again to get, you know,
• 2:29
  the actual information written down or whatever.
• 2:32
  So I thought that was cool. Yeah, he, yeah, he he says Chris
• 2:38
  on the show, you're a great podcast host.
• 2:41
  Good pacing, interesting questions.
• 2:43
  I was like, oh, thanks, Nate, That's awesome.
• 2:45
  Yeah. Which I just, well, kind of, you
• 2:47
  know. From a listener, I would agree
• 2:49
  with him. And I really appreciated, you
• 2:52
  know, you both had such an upbeat persona that it just bled
• 2:56
  through, you know? All right on.
• 3:00
  That's just that. That's that is it's obviously
• 3:02
  from the, the, the radio, the radio days with iheart because I
• 3:08
  had to learn that shit. To be able to carry a show for a
• 3:12
  year on iheart is not an easy task.
• 3:14
  So that I gave all the credit. Norris fronting a Hard Rock
• 3:19
  band. Well, this is true, but if
• 3:21
  fronting a rock band is different than than being on the
• 3:24
  radio as a host, Because being on stage, I can, oh for sure I
• 3:27
  want, I can do what the fuck I want on stage.
• 3:30
  Like there's no rules, you know, except whipping out my Ding a
• 3:32
  Ling other than. That that's why I thought you
• 3:34
  would enjoy this, because I would prefer that you didn't
• 3:37
  whip out your dangling either. So we're going to make that a
• 3:39
  rule. Yeah.
• 3:39
  Jim Morrison already did that, and he didn't really do it.
• 3:42
  He just stuck his thumb through the zipper hole, you know, and
• 3:45
  then the Chili Peppers tried to, you know, I don't know, push
• 3:49
  that envelope, but wear socks on the stage.
• 3:52
  I was at that show in Phoenix. When?
• 3:54
  Oh, no shit. Right on.
• 3:55
  Yeah, that's cool. Yeah, that was cool.
• 3:58
  That is cool. So here's a fun little thing.
• 4:01
  So my, my Gilbert, my Gilbert red light ticket, right?
• 4:04
  We talked about this a few episodes ago.
• 4:07
  Or you got an update? I do so I went so I had I had
• 4:11
  filed to extend it and the judge said fuck off like you it's
• 4:15
  you're not entitled to extend it so you had to go to court.
• 4:18
  So I went to court and it was just me and the officer and the
• 4:21
  judge and the the the chick that types everything.
• 4:25
  The statistician, is that what she called No.
• 4:27
  She's a. Stenographer, stenographer,
• 4:30
  stenographer. There you go.
• 4:33
  Mama so screaming it. It's a stenographer.
• 4:36
  So so the judge kind of explains how it's going to work.
• 4:40
  He gets to go first, you know, present whatever evidence he has
• 4:44
  and I get that my turn and then I'm allowed to cross examine
• 4:46
  him. There's no yelling.
• 4:48
  Be respectful, all the normal stuff you think right.
• 4:52
  So officer states his name, blah blah blah, and he says what I
• 4:57
  have and and judge asked him what evidence do you bring the
• 5:00
  table? And he's like, motherfucker, Oh,
• 5:02
  I have the dash Cam and the body Cam video and I'm like, oh, I'm
• 5:06
  like really Like I leaned. I knew that was going to happen.
• 5:09
  Right. And I leaned into my microphone.
• 5:10
  I'm like, I'm like, wait a minute, judge not to interrupt.
• 5:14
  I was like, but, but I you denied my motion because I don't
• 5:18
  have that footage yet. Yet I had to pay for the footage
• 5:21
  and your courts are 14 to 16 months backlogged for a 23
• 5:24
  minute video that they've already found because in order
• 5:27
  for me to pay for it, they had to know the length of the video
• 5:30
  itself. So I paid basically a dollar a
• 5:33
  minute, right? Yet the officer gets it.
• 5:37
  So the judge says, well, you have the chance to review it
• 5:40
  now. And I looked and I'm like, I'm
• 5:41
  like to be honest with you, I said I wanted to view the
• 5:45
  footage before I came here today because if I did it, I did it.
• 5:48
  I'm not going to dispute it, but I don't think I did it because I
• 5:51
  don't believe. I don't believe or either in
• 5:56
  light. I just, I just don't, you know,
• 5:58
  I said it's, it's out of my nature, whatever I said.
• 6:00
  So, so he, the judge says, well, here's what you can do, Mr.
• 6:04
  Dunham. I can recuse.
• 6:06
  I can recuse myself to the chambers.
• 6:10
  You have the opportunity to watch the footage with the
• 6:12
  officer with me not in the room. So there's no, I'm not being,
• 6:15
  you know, I'm not making judgement or whatever he said I
• 6:18
  like, that's fine. So him and the cop figure out
• 6:21
  how he's going to put the, the footage on the big screen TV,
• 6:25
  which is interesting. I took a picture of that of the
• 6:28
  cop in front of the big screen TV.
• 6:29
  The big screen TV blew it out. They have some kind of filter on
• 6:33
  that screen where you can't see it, and the footage was there.
• 6:38
  So I ran the fucking thing. I mean, that motherfucker was
• 6:42
  blood red, dripping. Just the blood was dripping from
• 6:45
  it. It was so fucking red.
• 6:46
  It was insane. Which I didn't.
• 6:47
  And honestly, I didn't know. I didn't think I did it right.
• 6:50
  I mean, I honestly didn't think I did it.
• 6:52
  The catch was my front tires were in the intersection.
• 6:56
  My back tires were still on the other side of the crosswalk.
• 6:59
  So if you can envision the crosswalk, how it has two bold
• 7:01
  lines in the third. Line I got you.
• 7:03
  So my tires above that third line, but everything else is
• 7:05
  behind that which is running red light.
• 7:06
  I'm like, you know, and so I even looked, I looked at the
• 7:09
  cop. I'm like, I'm like, and oh,
• 7:10
  here's another trippy thing. The vehicle camera.
• 7:14
  It's it, it wraps the fucking not the dashboard, but the what
• 7:22
  the fuck is it the front bumper? You know what I'm saying?
• 7:27
  You know what I'm saying? The grill.
• 7:30
  Yes, thank you. It wrapped the grill to where it
• 7:32
  had a complete it had a complete vision from he's sitting in the
• 7:35
  in the left lane, the left turning lane going South.
• 7:40
  That fucking camera footage picks up everything from the far
• 7:44
  right to the far left like you wouldn't believe.
• 7:47
  It was a total like Half Moon video.
• 7:50
  No shit, no shit, dude. And then it, and then it, you
• 7:53
  know, so obviously it's picking up the fucking lights,
• 7:54
  everything from all the lights and shit.
• 7:56
  And so he's picking up a super everything, everything,
• 8:00
  definitely all four points of that intersection.
• 8:04
  Except for the one he's in, but for the most part you got all
• 8:07
  three Vantage point, right? So.
• 8:09
  Everything in front of you, of course.
• 8:11
  So I, I, so I did it. So I just, I, I'm like, so I'm
• 8:14
  like, OK, we're good. So I, I tell the, this, the
• 8:17
  court reporter, Mike, you can have the judge come back in now.
• 8:19
  So he comes back and, you know, sits down and he's like, where
• 8:22
  we at? I was like, I ran the red light
• 8:23
  man. He's like, that's it.
• 8:26
  I was like, it's, that's it. I said, look at the footage.
• 8:28
  I was like, This is why I wanted the footage prior to I didn't
• 8:31
  think, I honestly didn't believe I ran the red light.
• 8:33
  I thought I was through the light before the light turned
• 8:35
  red. I didn't see the officer react
• 8:38
  right away, but he obviously did.
• 8:40
  He made some statement that oh, we're having all these kind of
• 8:43
  accidents at this intersection. I said I Googled the
• 8:45
  intersection. There were no, there's one
• 8:46
  accident I found in in the year so far, nothing else.
• 8:52
  And I just, you know, I just kind of felt like I was baited.
• 8:55
  No offense to the cop, but you know, that's their job is to do
• 8:57
  shit like this. I didn't say shit, obviously.
• 9:02
  So had they been on top of their game and found the footage in a
• 9:06
  reasonable amount of time like they should have and emailed it
• 9:09
  to you, you would have just paid the ticket and they would have
• 9:11
  already had their money by now. That's the moral of the story.
• 9:13
  Well, so here's the fucked up thing, buddy.
• 9:16
  Oh, I'm leaving the courtroom. OK, All right.
• 9:20
  OK, well, let me look back a little bit.
• 9:21
  So. So when I was talking,
• 9:23
  exchanging with the judge after the footage was leased, I was
• 9:26
  like, you know, I said I can't, I can't, I can't be, I can't
• 9:29
  plead guilty or not guilty because something I can't see is
• 9:31
  like, wait, wait, wait, wait. This is not a court of this is
• 9:34
  not criminal. This is responsible or not
• 9:36
  responsible. I said, what's the difference?
• 9:38
  He's like, you're responsible for the act of the civil traffic
• 9:41
  violation or you're not responsible.
• 9:43
  I said, so it's guilt and innocence.
• 9:44
  I'm like, I should be innocent before proven guilty.
• 9:46
  And he's like, no, he's like, he kept saying no, it's responsible
• 9:50
  or not responsible. So what I get in the mail?
• 9:53
  What I get in the mail? OK, guess what this fucking
• 9:58
  document says? Responsible or not responsible?
• 10:02
  I've never heard of that, but. Effective June 10th, your
• 10:08
  driving privileges will be withdrawn.
• 10:10
  This action is being taken under the Arizona Revised Statute.
• 10:12
  Blah blah blah, there's addition to other.
• 10:14
  Criminals. No, right?
• 10:17
  Right. I'm a criminal.
• 10:18
  Failure to criminal. Right, right.
• 10:20
  So I have to attend driver school before before June 10th.
• 10:24
  I do not have a right to a hearing in this matter.
• 10:27
  It is against the law to operate a vehicle, you know on date on
• 10:31
  June 10th and thereafter my compliance requirement is taking
• 10:35
  complete traffic school. OK So I was like OK so I get
• 10:38
  this other document. In the mail.
• 10:41
  Sorry, Mama. OK, I'm still hanging out with
• 10:42
  the bad guys and I'm shaking. I can't get away from him.
• 10:47
  Where the fuck is it, man? What I'm looking for is it said
• 10:51
  I was guilty. It didn't say I was responsible,
• 10:55
  it said I was. Oh yeah.
• 10:57
  Flat out said guilty. Our records indicate you were
• 10:59
  convicted under Arizona State statute.
• 11:02
  Convicted now. He purposely made a point
• 11:05
  several times in our conversation.
• 11:07
  The judge, it's, it's, it's responsible or not responsible.
• 11:11
  A conviction is guilty or not guilty.
• 11:15
  I wasn't, I wasn't found guilty. I was found.
• 11:17
  That thing says convicted. So I kind of call bullshit.
• 11:21
  I had the right to appeal it up to 14 days and then I and then I
• 11:24
  get these fucking letters like within two days.
• 11:25
  I'm like, what the fuck is this? And it's all now if, if the and
• 11:29
  I even told them at the initial hearings, different judge.
• 11:32
  I said at the initial hearing, if that judge would have laid it
• 11:36
  out you, you, because I told that judge what I was doing
• 11:41
  right, my initial hearing, he's like, what do you want to do?
• 11:43
  I said, I'm I, I applied for the, the video footage.
• 11:45
  I want to see whether or not I actually ran the red light.
• 11:48
  So before I stand in front of the in front of the judge, I
• 11:51
  want to know if I didn't or not. I said because.
• 11:53
  If I that was the guy that told the young kid that if he tried
• 11:56
  to pursue the cop visually watching him speed, that they
• 12:01
  were just going to produce a document that said that he was
• 12:04
  certified to do that. OK, it's the same guy.
• 12:06
  Got it. So had that judge told me that
• 12:12
  although you can have you can request the footage, you will
• 12:16
  not be able to wait for the footage to become available
• 12:19
  because the morning of your hearing, the office is going to
• 12:22
  bring it. Because guess what, on my way
• 12:23
  out, I left first and the cop, I heard the door come behind me.
• 12:27
  So I stopped and turned around and he he kind of had to look
• 12:30
  like oh fuck. And I was like, but that was
• 12:33
  cool. I was like, like, you ain't mad
• 12:34
  at you, man, I said. I honestly didn't think I'd
• 12:36
  read. And you could see his body kind
• 12:38
  of like they. Weren't going to be one of those
• 12:41
  guys, right, Right. I I said, but you want to know
• 12:43
  the fucked up thing? His last name is Wilson.
• 12:45
  You want the fucked up thing, Mr. Wilson?
• 12:47
  He's like, what's that? I was like, I requested the
• 12:51
  footage, yet you have the footage.
• 12:53
  How does that work? He's like, well to be honest
• 12:57
  with you, as soon as Someone Like You requested, I get
• 13:00
  notified within 24 hours that you've requested it.
• 13:02
  So I reply, I apply for my my copy of it and I get it within
• 13:05
  48. So.
• 13:09
  So why shouldn't that be the same for Thank you.
• 13:13
  The the what? What would you be you?
• 13:16
  Would be the plaintiff the the the plaintiff exactly Like what
• 13:18
  the fuck? So you the.
• 13:20
  Plaintiff and the officer should get the same.
• 13:23
  Uh huh. And 'cause then it's footage.
• 13:25
  At the same time, right? 'Cause that's what I told,
• 13:26
  that's what I ended with. That's like, I wouldn't have
• 13:28
  wasted your time because I know your time is valuable for what
• 13:31
  you do. I wouldn't have wasted my time.
• 13:34
  I wouldn't have wasted the judge's time.
• 13:36
  Everybody's time is valuable. Right you.
• 13:38
  Shouldn't be disadvantaged over him.
• 13:41
  Right. And now he should see why that
• 13:44
  should be that way too. You know, it's like, hey, I
• 13:46
  wouldn't have had to come to court today if they would have
• 13:48
  just emailed a copy to the plaintiff.
• 13:50
  Too, And that's why and that's why I told the judge and he's
• 13:52
  like, well, that's the Police Department.
• 13:54
  I said he didn't even know that. I was like, no, it's not.
• 13:56
  I said I called the Police Department 1st and they
• 13:59
  specifically said we do not handle that.
• 14:01
  You have to go to the court of record where your ticket is at.
• 14:04
  So I'm like, so I have to call Gilbert courts.
• 14:06
  Yes, you have to call Gilbert courts.
• 14:08
  So I called the Gilbert courts. I said your court system is 14
• 14:11
  to 16 months behind now. To see why the fucking judicial
• 14:15
  system is so screwed. Right.
• 14:17
  Because you taught them something while you were
• 14:19
  standing there. They didn't know, right?
• 14:21
  Oh, you got to go to the police? Nope.
• 14:23
  Tried that brother? It's the court.
• 14:26
  It's crazy, man. So then, so then I had to pay
• 14:28
  the $248 fine, OK for running red light.
• 14:32
  But again, the 1st judge should have told me you're not going to
• 14:35
  get the opportunity to get this for prior to your court date.
• 14:38
  So, Mr. Dunham, you can either pay 248 today, acknowledging
• 14:43
  that you ran this red light. Oh, by the way, you're still
• 14:46
  going to have to take traffic school, motherfucker.
• 14:51
  So like none of that was laid out because now I got to spend
• 14:54
  $450 to do traffic school. Holy shit it's up to 450.
• 14:58
  For an entire 8 hour time frame, which I can do.
• 15:01
  It online was 168 or something. Well, that's because you're in
• 15:06
  Pontiac. No, no, no.
• 15:07
  I did it in. There so.
• 15:10
  That was like 2004 three, something like that.
• 15:14
  I don't. Know so this is the racket now
• 15:17
  Gilbert got $248 for me for a ticket right?
• 15:21
  Yep. 2 judges got paid for showing up to work that day.
• 15:27
  The county clerk got paid for showing up that day.
• 15:29
  The guys that that scanned me coming in, you know, got paid
• 15:32
  that day. If that was the cops day off he
• 15:35
  probably got overtime. He got paid right?
• 15:38
  And now I have to go spend $450 to go to traffic school so that
• 15:41
  traffic instructor can get paid. So basically the city of
• 15:44
  Gilbert. Because the first judge was
• 15:46
  fucking stupid. No offense, but you were.
• 15:49
  Or he just purposely didn't tell me what he should have told me
• 15:52
  because then I could have been like, and Nikki was with me.
• 15:54
  I would have been like, well, fuck it then I'm not.
• 15:57
  If I'm not going to get the footage then there's no way I
• 15:59
  can say whether or not I did it, so fuck it.
• 16:02
  And I'm still waiting for the footage, by the way.
• 16:07
  Well, it's a good thing you went to court, so you got to see it.
• 16:10
  Right, right, right. Yeah.
• 16:13
  But it was, it was dripping blood, man.
• 16:14
  It was so red. It was just.
• 16:17
  It was. Well, you said here publicly,
• 16:20
  this is at least the fourth or fifth time in your saga as this
• 16:24
  has been going on that you've said every time if I'm guilty,
• 16:27
  I'll pay the money. And I agree I'm the same way.
• 16:29
  I'll I'll give you an example. So I'm standing at work the
• 16:33
  other day and we're really not supposed to be on our phone.
• 16:35
  So, you know, like when my phone goes off and you're not dripping
• 16:38
  with oil or whatever, I'll pull it out and check it out.
• 16:41
  And it was from Discover Card and it says $21.68.
• 16:47
  Did you authorize this possible fraud?
• 16:49
  Right? So it didn't ring a bell.
• 16:53
  So I go out in the hallway and I'm looking at it and I'm
• 16:57
  looking at my Discover Card on the app.
• 17:00
  And I'm like, that just doesn't, I have recurring charges on that
• 17:04
  card unless it's my 5% rotating category that I like.
• 17:09
  I only use it for rotate or revolving charges, right?
• 17:14
  So I'm like, I don't recognize that and everything on this card
• 17:17
  is a revolving charge. Long story short, I call the
• 17:22
  next day and I say, you know, while I called that night, said
• 17:26
  that wasn't my charge, please take it off, blah, blah blah.
• 17:29
  We'll send you a new card. They were super nice.
• 17:34
  So the next day it hits me like a ton of bricks.
• 17:36
  OK. I signed up for the Marquee
• 17:39
  Network, the Cubs Baseball Network, Right on.
• 17:43
  So I only subscribe to that obviously from April until
• 17:47
  October. Right.
• 17:49
  Hopefully October. Because of baseball season, yes.
• 17:53
  So being just like you said, if I'm guilty, I will own up to
• 17:57
  what I did. So the next day I call them
• 17:59
  back, yeah, and they have awesome US based customer
• 18:03
  service, but I'm on hold for like 5 or 6 minutes and about
• 18:07
  halfway through it I'm thinking they would never even bother
• 18:12
  investigating $21.68. I know this.
• 18:16
  I've had credit card since I was 18 years old.
• 18:18
  I know how they operate because I used to use them to my
• 18:20
  advantage when I was younger and didn't have a lot of money and
• 18:24
  wanted to get away with shit. You know that's the equipment
• 18:26
  that you saw on stage every night.
• 18:28
  Part of that was paid for by MasterCard and Visa.
• 18:33
  Right on. But I'm thinking This is why
• 18:36
  people just give up and say fuck it, because you can't get
• 18:39
  somebody on the phone to even do the right thing, you know what
• 18:42
  I'm saying? But like I said, to their
• 18:44
  credit, when they came on the phone, they were very nice and
• 18:46
  it was quick and easy and painless and you just got to own
• 18:53
  up to, I just think that's good karma, you know, that's what I
• 18:56
  believe in. You put good positive energy out
• 18:58
  into the universe. You get good positive energy
• 19:00
  back. I've, I've proven it to myself
• 19:03
  on both sides. I've been a negative prick and
• 19:05
  bad things happened and I've tried to treat people as well as
• 19:09
  I can and good things have happened.
• 19:10
  So I just think that's a good mantra to live by.
• 19:14
  It is a good mantra, you know. And I really wanted to watch my
• 19:17
  Cubs baseball so well. Yeah, so so.
• 19:20
  But now you have, so you're still subscribed.
• 19:23
  So they reversed it. You finally got to talk to
• 19:25
  somebody. Yeah, when the guy got on the
• 19:26
  phone, he was like, oh, they don't even know that you
• 19:28
  disputed it because it was just yesterday that you initiated the
• 19:33
  fraud charge. He said they'll never even know
• 19:35
  and everything will just keep going like it's going.
• 19:37
  And I got my new card today and it's all good.
• 19:40
  It was just an innocent mistake. They actually sent me the fraud
• 19:44
  notice before Marquis sent me the receipt.
• 19:49
  For the charge. That's what happened is I
• 19:53
  didn't, the lady that came on the phone initially said, you
• 19:56
  know, can you please look through your e-mail and make
• 19:58
  sure you don't have an e-mail from a, you know, whoever you
• 20:01
  ordered whatever from. And I looked and there was
• 20:04
  nothing there. And it was the next morning it
• 20:06
  popped up and I'm like, you sons of bitches, how slow are you on
• 20:09
  your billing, you know? Right, right.
• 20:11
  I subscribed to this over a week ago.
• 20:14
  And it took them that long. Not kidding.
• 20:16
  Yeah, almost 7 days. Wow, that's a little nuts.
• 20:20
  Normally when you buy something on a credit card it happens
• 20:22
  instantly right? At least a pending charge you.
• 20:25
  Know. Sure, sure.
• 20:27
  So anyway, that was my good karma story, just like you owned
• 20:30
  up to yours. When I do something wrong I try
• 20:32
  and say hey I fucked up, you know, sorry.
• 20:35
  Yeah, yeah. You know, it's just, it's, it's
• 20:37
  irritating because, you know, it is what it is.
• 20:40
  It is what it is, man. I don't care.
• 20:42
  Hey, so we made a little, we made a YouTube channel for
• 20:44
  little man. It's called Anthony Tanner's
• 20:46
  Adventures. OK, I will be subscribing.
• 20:50
  It's, it's, it's quite comical. He has, you know, Minecraft and
• 20:56
  just, you know, he does, he, he, he likes YouTube because that's
• 21:00
  the, the world we live in now, right with, with this
• 21:02
  generation. So.
• 21:03
  They love YouTube, yes. Yeah, so one day he's like pop
• 21:06
  up record me. I was like, what am I recording?
• 21:09
  And he just starts talking. I'm like, hold on.
• 21:11
  It's like hit recording, you know, And he's explaining what
• 21:15
  he's doing. He's like, you can find me on
• 21:16
  anthony.com. I'm like, you can't.
• 21:21
  You can't. There's no anthony.com
• 21:23
  available, buddy. Because I looked for the hell of
• 21:25
  it. But I got a little, I got Dave
• 21:29
  the Chat GPTA guy to make me a nice little character of him
• 21:31
  based on a photo and you know. That's awesome.
• 21:34
  Yeah, so he, you know, he, I showed him this morning the
• 21:38
  three videos and he's, you know, just.
• 21:42
  Seeing himself on the screen. Well, he's he's seen enough of
• 21:47
  himself because, because I've, you know, because I've had him
• 21:50
  every morning basically since he's 3 weeks old every.
• 21:54
  I mean, I've documented his entire life, you know, and I've
• 21:57
  documented as much as I can with trip.
• 21:59
  I don't have trip like I do with with little man.
• 22:01
  But so there's about a week ago he asked me, we were hanging out
• 22:05
  in the morning and and he'd asked me a, a question about
• 22:10
  something when he was little and I was like, Oh, I can pull it
• 22:13
  up. So I have it all in Dropbox.
• 22:14
  So I pulled him up in Dropbox and five years old.
• 22:18
  OK, we're looking at going through videos when he's, you
• 22:21
  know, one and just, you know, random shit.
• 22:23
  He tells. He looks at me and says wish I
• 22:25
  could go back in time like you're 5 dude.
• 22:30
  He said. I wish I could go back in time.
• 22:33
  That's awesome. I'm like, you're 5 little man.
• 22:35
  That's how I used to think. I'm like I.
• 22:36
  Still do. Well, I do, everybody does.
• 22:39
  But when you're 5. Oh yeah, I thought like that as
• 22:42
  a definitely as a little kid. I'm like, you're not going to,
• 22:45
  you're not going to remember any of this, dude.
• 22:46
  That's why I have the pictures of it, you know, because he's
• 22:48
  walking and, you know, yelling and screaming like you did, you
• 22:51
  know, just random cool stuff. But yeah, it was, it was
• 22:56
  interesting. I want to go back in time.
• 22:58
  I'm like, you're 5, man. Like, wait till you're at least
• 23:01
  20. They want to go back in time,
• 23:03
  maybe 15, you know? I used to want to be a character
• 23:08
  in all the books I read. You know, I'll write on that.
• 23:11
  That's cool. That's really cool.
• 23:16
  When you grow up in the middle of nowhere, you got to have an
• 23:18
  active imagination, you know, because there's not a lot to do.
• 23:21
  Right. Yeah, no, there's not.
• 23:24
  And there's, I mean, when I grew up in Tempe, there wasn't a lot
• 23:26
  to do, especially as when I was young and home all the time
• 23:29
  being sick. So it was always active
• 23:31
  imagination, all that kind of wacky stuff.
• 23:35
  So. But I think that's what turned
• 23:38
  us into productive adults too. Or creative adults you know.
• 23:41
  I think creative for sure. When you were growing up with
• 23:45
  your buddies, there was no Internet, so you had to make up
• 23:48
  games, you know? Yeah, that's all we did is make
• 23:51
  up games, you know, And as you got older you played baseball or
• 23:55
  whatever. We got we played a game called
• 23:57
  and and don't hate me world. It's back in the 70s, late 70s,
• 24:03
  right? It's yeah, late 70s, early 80s.
• 24:06
  Smear the queer. Smear the queer.
• 24:07
  I knew that was going to cut right.
• 24:10
  Oh yeah, we did too. Absolutely, and and capture the
• 24:13
  flag. Well, we're the generation that
• 24:16
  played dodgeball. Right.
• 24:18
  Dodgeball. Yeah.
• 24:18
  Yep, Yep. Doorbell ditching.
• 24:20
  Fuck you up. Yep, doorbell ditch, you know.
• 24:24
  Oh yeah. Which people?
• 24:25
  It's funny, there's people in my neighborhood on their Facebook
• 24:27
  page. They'll they'll try and they'll
• 24:28
  put some posts. I mean, they're not saying it
• 24:31
  like those fucking asshole kids keep Ding Dong ditching my door.
• 24:34
  You came back here, I'm going to kick your ass.
• 24:36
  It's like, really? You did that dog shit and light
• 24:39
  it on fire. You.
• 24:40
  I never did that, although I'd like to.
• 24:42
  I'd like to do. That I didn't do that, but I was
• 24:45
  with people that did. It's it's crossed my mind a
• 24:47
  couple times with a couple of my people that live around me, but
• 24:51
  I know karma's a a motherfucker, so I ain't doing it all all.
• 24:57
  Well, Steele just told me a story about him and his buddies
• 24:59
  doing that, so I I felt better about myself after that.
• 25:04
  He was just with his buddies like I was, you know?
• 25:06
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's OK.
• 25:09
  Tell the story you. Can't.
• 25:10
  I'm not telling his story. It was just very, very similar.
• 25:13
  OK, you guys, we'll have to get him.
• 25:14
  We got to get him. On dude, he's got he's got the
• 25:17
  best stories of crazy shit they did.
• 25:19
  They were when they were kids. But yeah, he tells them better
• 25:22
  than I do because he was there. So of course, you got to
• 25:25
  remember he grew up in the 50s, so they really had nothing to
• 25:28
  do. Oh yeah.
• 25:30
  Well, they had they had they, they were stand by me in real
• 25:33
  life. Absolutely.
• 25:36
  You know, and those are all his stories, as you know, just like
• 25:39
  us growing up, we had a little more, but they just invented
• 25:43
  shit to do and a lot of it was probably less than desirable to
• 25:50
  the adult. Right.
• 25:53
  But that's part of the fun of being a kid, too.
• 25:55
  It's just this. Absolutely.
• 25:59
  I kind of feel sorry for kids today that don't have a
• 26:01
  childhood like that. You know, you drive around and
• 26:05
  when we were all out riding bikes when the weather was nice,
• 26:07
  it's like you're hard pressed to find kids outside now.
• 26:11
  Well, and that's the other thing that my neighborhood's brilliant
• 26:13
  for. We have this wash.
• 26:15
  OK. And the describe to people what
• 26:18
  a wash is that don't. OK.
• 26:19
  So, so we have, it's when, when we get a lot of rain, rain will
• 26:26
  go through this wash. It's like the lowest point
• 26:28
  between communities. It's kind of drops down, you
• 26:31
  know, 1520 feet and it creates a natural wash where the water
• 26:34
  flows from, you know, in eastern, northeastern,
• 26:38
  southeastern part of the valley where we live.
• 26:41
  Just kind of trickles down through our, our, the backside
• 26:43
  of our neighborhood goes around a corner and crosses the street,
• 26:46
  just kind of keeps going into collecting somewhere.
• 26:49
  So there's no major storm sewers like there is no no.
• 26:52
  No. So we.
• 26:53
  Yeah. The rest of the developed
• 26:54
  country. So we have we have kind of a
• 26:59
  blacktop path on it. That's, you know, enough for,
• 27:03
  you know, I don't know, you could get probably eight people
• 27:06
  shoulder to shoulder walking across it.
• 27:07
  So these in the mornings when you walk, whatever you share the
• 27:10
  you share the space, right? Sure.
• 27:13
  Well below that asphalt is natural vegetation, sandy bottom
• 27:18
  dirt, you know what, what, what not, right?
• 27:22
  So a lot of people in our neighborhood, because we are a
• 27:24
  horse neighborhood, horse, horse, horse, horse, horse
• 27:27
  property, neighborhood, one to five acres, people that have
• 27:30
  horses, they're in that wash all the time, going up and down.
• 27:33
  And what pisses me off about that is they'll go on the trail,
• 27:37
  right? They'll go on the pavement trail
• 27:38
  and they'll let their horses shit.
• 27:41
  I was just going to ask that question.
• 27:42
  So here's the thing, man, that that just fucking gets.
• 27:45
  You got to clean up after your horse.
• 27:47
  If I take the dozer out for a walk in the morning, he shits in
• 27:50
  the street. We have to clean it up.
• 27:52
  Absolutely. If the fucking neighbor's cat
• 27:54
  goes out and shits in the street, nobody cleans it up.
• 27:56
  Fuck that. If you're riding a horse and the
• 27:59
  horse shits in the street and they've actually shit on my
• 28:02
  street out front. And if they don't leave little
• 28:04
  tiny shit. No, they leave fucking that's
• 28:06
  you want to talk about a bag on the front porch full of shit?
• 28:09
  That's like a fucking, you know, that's a glad garbage bag man.
• 28:13
  But one of my neighbors, I I watched it one day.
• 28:17
  Not the crazy cat people, the ones just one, the ones West of
• 28:21
  him them, which is Brian fucking horses.
• 28:25
  Three of them. They walked right by his
• 28:26
  driveway and and they just shit and they shit on the space that
• 28:31
  he goes from the road to his driveway and they just and they
• 28:35
  just kept going. So then when I saw Brian,
• 28:39
  that's. Rude dude.
• 28:40
  Totally rude. Fucking get off your horse and
• 28:42
  clean up. Absolutely.
• 28:43
  Like fucking clean up it's not. You live in a, you live in a
• 28:46
  civilized neighborhood. You know, it's not like you're
• 28:48
  living out on the fucking back 40.
• 28:50
  Well, you, you take the idiot to the east of me, he's going to
• 28:53
  sign up saying, well, it's a farm.
• 28:54
  It's not a farm, motherfucker. It's a residential community.
• 28:57
  You know why 'cause? There's a I'll take pictures of
• 28:58
  some farms and send them. Yeah.
• 29:00
  Oh I know 'cause there's a we got a big old sign that says
• 29:02
  residential community drive with care.
• 29:04
  It's not a fucking farmland dickhead.
• 29:09
  I just you know, but yeah, he's got a thing.
• 29:11
  Oh, it's a farm. It's it smells.
• 29:13
  It's it's you're going to see animals having sex, wear
• 29:15
  rednecks for God fearing and we're rifle bearing
• 29:17
  motherfuckers like no, you're I'm going to I got to try and.
• 29:20
  Get oh, you're an idiot. I'm going to try I've tried a
• 29:23
  couple times to get a video of him like when I leave with
• 29:25
  little man sometimes he's walking back towards his house
• 29:27
  from taking his kids and he just walks with like a total I'm an
• 29:30
  asshole just just stoically you're just walking and he won't
• 29:34
  budge his. Horn cop shove straight up his
• 29:36
  ass. Right, right, won't won't even,
• 29:38
  but won't even turn his eyes and look at my truck like he just
• 29:41
  and he fucking owns his space. So if he's in the road and in my
• 29:43
  space, I will drive to the point to where if you don't get out of
• 29:47
  the road, I'm still going to move.
• 29:48
  But you know, you're like, you're like a foot away from me
• 29:51
  clipping your ass because you're in the road like.
• 29:53
  I guess one thing I never asked you is how old is this guy?
• 29:56
  I don't know, 40s maybe, OK, early, maybe late 30s, early
• 30:00
  40s. It's hard to tell because he's
• 30:02
  he's weathered with the sun and he he's got a Gray beard, but
• 30:06
  that doesn't mean anything. Gray black hair, beard, you
• 30:08
  know, because some people Gray at 30 like like.
• 30:10
  Yeah, my dad went Gray probably around 3031, right something.
• 30:14
  What's his what's his face? Matt LeBlanc.
• 30:17
  When he was on Friends, he was fucking white haired.
• 30:20
  We realized that because he dyed his hair black.
• 30:22
  Shocking. But yeah, straight up white
• 30:24
  hair, grayed looking old motherfucker.
• 30:26
  Yeah, it's just in your jeans. Yeah, yeah, it is what it is.
• 30:29
  I just wondered if he was like a crotchety old man or if he was a
• 30:32
  young kid. If he was the guy behind me is
• 30:35
  the crotchy old man, the guy behind me is the crotchy old
• 30:37
  man, the one that was cussing me out that night when I moved his
• 30:39
  ditch because he was he was taking my irrigation, who has
• 30:42
  never, never since pulled his own ditch.
• 30:45
  Never. Not once since that incident of
• 30:48
  him just berating me, dropping really bombs.
• 30:51
  Yeah, not once because I'm like, I had texted him.
• 30:54
  I'm like, dude, if you can't pull your your dish, stop out on
• 30:57
  time, then just hire a rancher to do it.
• 31:00
  They'll do it for 20 bucks. He tells me to fuck off.
• 31:03
  Don't ever bother me again or I'm going to call the Queen
• 31:04
  Creek Police Department for harassment.
• 31:06
  I'm like, God bless you Tom, Jesus loves you.
• 31:09
  Have a good day. Like that's legit, you know,
• 31:14
  God. Bless you.
• 31:16
  Oh man, you're surrounded by assholes.
• 31:18
  I am which is a dragon. I I'm now take that back the
• 31:20

• 31:41
  all the time. I guess that's their only.
• 31:43
  Yeah, and Brian, Brian and Doreen, next to the crazy cat
• 31:46
  lady, they're nice. And then Jim at the end, the
• 31:47
  street's nice, but you don't see him any anywhere.
• 31:51
  There's, there's people in my neighborhood, There's a lot of
• 31:53
  nice people in my neighborhood. I'm just unfortunately next to
• 31:57
  and across from two of the biggest.
• 31:58
  That's what I'm saying that's. Yeah, so this was this was the
• 32:02
  text to Tom Alberti, the Dick head to the South of me.
• 32:08
  May 7th, 2023. Hey Tom, if you can't close your
• 32:13
  port on time, please pay RJID which is our irrigation
• 32:17
  district. My run started at 12:45 AM.
• 32:20
  You shut your port at at two O 4.
• 32:26
  You cost me full flow which is the rate of water you get.
• 32:31
  This is Tom Alberti's response. A volunteer posse member for the
• 32:35
  Pinal County Sheriff's Department.
• 32:36
  Mind you. OK.
• 32:38
  Did you see anything threatening in that text?
• 32:41
  No, not at all 0. Quote started starting the quote
• 32:46
  fuck off. I shut my port before way before
• 32:50
  that. If you text me anymore anymore,
• 32:52
  I will file harassment charges with the police.
• 32:56
  My End Quote, my response. God bless you Tom.
• 33:00
  Jesus loves you. There it is Tom Alberti ladies
• 33:04
  and gentlemen. A volunteer deputy for the
• 33:07
  Pinella County Sheriff's Department has not has not shown
• 33:12
  up at the fence line since. See, that's what sucks.
• 33:16
  It's that 1% of the cops that gives all of them the bad name
• 33:21
  because they're not all bad. So here's the thing.
• 33:23
  So just like that guy you talked to, you know, he was cool.
• 33:26
  He was cool. He was still a cop and he still,
• 33:28
  you know, gave me tickets, so that wasn't cool.
• 33:31
  You know, broke the law, Sir, you're a.
• 33:33
  Criminal. I did break the law, but I I
• 33:35
  was, I was responsible. I just like saying you're a
• 33:38
  criminal. I know I was responsible.
• 33:42
  I was found. I was found responsible, not not
• 33:44
  guilty of, but according to the state, I was found guilty even
• 33:47
  though the judge clearly said this is not Criminal Court,
• 33:50
  you're responsible or not responsible.
• 33:53
  Well, I don't. I beg to differ, Judge.
• 33:55
  No, that's us convicted. It does, I should scan it and
• 33:58
  send to him because I have his e-mail.
• 34:00
  Like dude what the fuck you said this wasn't a guilt or innocence
• 34:03
  like you. I don't see responsible or not
• 34:05
  responsible anywhere on here. This says I'm guilty.
• 34:08
  Right. You hammered that point like he
• 34:09
  hammered it like big time. So there's that.
• 34:15
  What do you have to talk about? Because I've obviously been
• 34:17
  running my mouth for the last 34 minutes.
• 34:19
  You're fine. OK.
• 34:21
  I know I hate the draft. The draft's coming up, right?
• 34:26
  Isn't the NFL draft coming up? Yeah.
• 34:27
  Isn't that coming? Up.
• 34:28
  I would assume so. Have you been watching any of
• 34:31
  any of the basketball playoffs? Because I haven't.
• 34:34
  No, I don't watch the NBA. That's one thing I do not do.
• 34:37
  I gave up on the NBA. I don't know, maybe shortly
• 34:42
  after Barclay and those guys Start Stop playing.
• 34:45
  Yeah, I did. After, after, I'm going to say
• 34:49
  after, after probably five years after the the Jordan era ended.
• 34:54
  It just it just started changing because there's still some
• 34:56
  really good teams back then. Yeah, so like whenever they quit
• 34:59
  playing defense? Yeah, yeah, like, like the queen
• 35:04
  of the flop, the flop, the flop queen.
• 35:07
  How he just, you know, he turns the ball over and just.
• 35:09
  And then the other half of the game is, yeah.
• 35:13
  Then the other half of the game is they go up the court,
• 35:17
  somebody shoots A3, they either make it or they miss, and then
• 35:20
  they ship it down to the other end, shoot another three.
• 35:24
  That's just, I can't remember who it was.
• 35:27
  Somebody that's inside the NBA just basically said that exact
• 35:30
  same thing, only they had a really long lecture on it,
• 35:34
  basically telling the NBA if you don't clean the game up, you're
• 35:38
  going to lose your product because people are like dropping
• 35:42
  like flies. I mean, I dropped 20 years ago,
• 35:45
  but now people are stopping watching the NBA at
• 35:48
  unprecedented numbers. Yet here's how the media spends
• 35:52
  the shit. Latest from nba.com 2025 NBA
• 35:56
  playoffs deliver Most watched opening weekend in 25 years
• 36:00
  Probably because they wanted to see if the Lakers would lose
• 36:03
  because LeBron is now 12 and 12 in opening games and he usually
• 36:08
  goes on to lose the series when he loses his first game.
• 36:11
  So according to the nba.com whoeverrunsnba.com the 25 NBA
• 36:19
  playoffs presented oh, presented by Google.
• 36:22
  Oh, and this happens to be a Google article.
• 36:25
  Oh Real News delivered the most watched opening weekend of the
• 36:29
  playoffs in 25 years. The eight game schedule averaged
• 36:32
  4.4 million viewers, up 17% versus last year.
• 36:37
  Both ESPN and TNT Sports set viewership records for the
• 36:40
  opening weekend. ESPN claimed they averaged 4.49
• 36:45
  million viewers. Why?
• 36:45
  TNT, Tru TV and Max is 2 games averaged 4.13 million, which I
• 36:52
  guess on all summary wise ends up being 4.4 million.
• 36:56
  But let's just let's go deeper down the rabbit hole, shall we?
• 37:00
  Let's see what Jordan Arable's gotten in views.
• 37:03
  Jordan there. Weren't as many people living in
• 37:06
  the United States then? Viewership.
• 37:09
  It doesn't matter. 1988 had had the NBA Finals between the bulls
• 37:25
  and the Jazz averaged 18.7 rating 33 share and 29.04
• 37:29
  million viewers on NBC 29,000,000 viewers on NBC.
• 37:35
  That was the highest NBA viewership ever for a
• 37:38
  championship game. The Jordan now now yeah.
• 37:43
  Now back to your comment. The NBA is reportedly suffering
• 37:46
  a decline in viewership. Fans around the world have been
• 37:48
  chiming in to provide potential reasons for why fewer fans are
• 37:53
  tuning into live games via traditional.
• 37:55
  Because their fucking product sucks.
• 37:56
  Yes, and this was January 27th with with some noting that the
• 38:00
  rise in streaming platforms such as League Pass is partly the
• 38:03
  cause. Why?
• 38:04
  Yeah, OK. That's part of it, but the most
• 38:07
  of it is what Barkley keeps preaching, which is the stupid
• 38:10
  load management shit where the guys that you want to see play
• 38:14
  only play like one time out of every four.
• 38:18
  And the rest of the time they're like, oh, I got a my hips.
• 38:23
  Yeah, my inner thigh hurts. I'm trying to think of the
• 38:26
  dumbest shit ever, you know, because Barclay's like, yeah,
• 38:30
  the guy who's going into the coal mine, I bet his back and
• 38:32
  his hip hurt, too. But he's got to go to work every
• 38:34
  day. Speaking of coal Miner's
• 38:36
  daughter's, Nikki's dad, a coal miner, just had back surgery 2
• 38:39
  weeks ago and the scar goes from the base of his necks all the
• 38:41
  way to the tip of his ass. Oh my God.
• 38:46
  Yep, Yep. But he went, he's been kind of
• 38:52
  whack A mole for a while. He's kind of getting to that age
• 38:54
  where the problem, the problem. That hurts.
• 38:57
  So the. The, the, the, the turning point
• 39:00
  for him, they live in this really cool community.
• 39:04
  He took care of the house, the yard, you know, he had his
• 39:06
  camper spot this, this weird camp we can place.
• 39:09
  He'd go camp with a camper there, you know, and, and just
• 39:12
  was always outdoors doing shit, right?
• 39:13
  Because when you have land, you're doing shit.
• 39:15
  Whether you have an acre, 40 acres or like your size lot,
• 39:20
  right, 13,000 square foot lot, whatever you have, right, you're
• 39:22
  doing shit. You have to do shit outdoors.
• 39:24
  You just can't let it go, right? You have to, even if you don't
• 39:27
  mow your fucking lawn, right? You still got a douche, right?
• 39:30
  But you still got to do shit. You got to, you know, gutters
• 39:32
  and, you know, blah, blah, blah, right?
• 39:34
  Oh yeah. Well, his wife decides that
• 39:37
  they're going to sell that shit and move to some other city in
• 39:41
  in Pennsylvania to be closer to his his his his son.
• 39:46
  He has three kids, 4 kids, one died, Tony, Nikki, Michael who
• 39:51
  is the 2nd baby Mama and the current one is the third baby
• 39:53
  Mama, Nikki's mom. Nikki and Tony's mom, which was
• 39:57
  his first two kids, unfortunately died when they
• 39:59
  were both young. Crohn's disease complications.
• 40:01
  Wow. So she, she, she takes George
• 40:05
  completely out of his environment and sticks him to do
• 40:08
  a condo, right? You imagine me living in a
• 40:16
  condo. No, not for one second.
• 40:19
  You're like my brother. My you and my brother are the
• 40:22
  same kind of you know, I got to be doing something.
• 40:26
  I got to be moving. I, you know, it's just he
• 40:29
  wouldn't be happy sitting around and you wouldn't be.
• 40:31
  I'm not kidding you in that respect.
• 40:33
  You guys are the exact same person.
• 40:35
  No, I can't imagine my brother sitting on a couch in a condo
• 40:38
  and I can't imagine you sitting on a couch in a condo.
• 40:40
  It just isn't going to work. Now if I, if I, I'd be happier
• 40:43
  than fucking shit. Give me a guitar and ATV and I'm
• 40:45
  happy. Well, and see if eventually I
• 40:47
  end up going into a condo cause of age, I'll, I'll fucking be on
• 40:51
  that board and shit man, I'll fucking be out there on a clean
• 40:53
  up committee. I'll be fucking sticking my nose
• 40:55
  in everybody business. Right, because I'm hoping you're
• 40:58
  a world famous podcaster by then and you know you're too busy to
• 41:02
  do all that shit. But I would still do it anyway.
• 41:05
  Somehow I believe that. So to put this into perspective,
• 41:11
  my brother's up to four jobs. That's why we don't see him very
• 41:14
  often. Why?
• 41:15
  He's up to four jobs. Just because he likes to stay
• 41:18
  when I told you you're the same person.
• 41:20
  He just likes to stay busy, man. Yeah, yeah, I'm the same way.
• 41:28
  Or if he sees an angle to be at like 1 year he took a job at a
• 41:32
  golf course just so he could play golf for free.
• 41:36
  Oh. He only had to work like, I
• 41:37
  don't know, 10 hours a week or something, or 15 hours a week,
• 41:40
  and he got to play for free for the whole summer.
• 41:42
  So I think he did that 2 summers in a row.
• 41:45
  What do you do with the golf course?
• 41:46
  Oh, I think he'd like handed out golf carts and picked up range
• 41:51
  balls and I don't know. Fuck, I don't know.
• 41:54
  Who knows, he just took a job there so he could play golf.
• 41:58
  That's fucking cool. Now he's, I think he's got his
• 42:02
  EMT license, so he's working at a two different ambulance
• 42:08
  outfits. Yeah, right on.
• 42:13
  And what's his? Because isn't he a tech dude?
• 42:15
  He's a cybersecurity expert at State Farm, OK.
• 42:19
  He has a master's degree in cybersecurity, whatever, blah,
• 42:23
  blah, blah. Yeah, I don't know what his
• 42:26
  exact degrees in, but that's what he does.
• 42:28
  He's a cyber security expert. That's cool.
• 42:32
  Keep their servers and infrastructure maintained, yeah.
• 42:35
  And and that just, that's boring for him, so he got another job.
• 42:40
  Yeah, he just, he's got, he had ADD before they knew what that
• 42:44
  was. He just can't sit still, you
• 42:46
  know? Yeah.
• 42:50
  And that's one thing I agree with listening to Rogan over and
• 42:53
  over and over again, because he talks about this a lot.
• 42:55
  You know, the way that we raise specifically boys is so just
• 43:01
  counterintuitive to the way the human nature is, right?
• 43:06
  You know, because you were a young boy and you had a young
• 43:09
  boy and now you have grandsons. When you're that age, they have
• 43:12
  more energy than anybody can ever imagine.
• 43:15
  And we expect them to sit in a classroom for so many hours a
• 43:19
  day and behave, right? That's just not in the male DNA
• 43:24
  and it's not in our nature. So, you know, we should be like
• 43:27
  burning that off as much as we can and then trying to learn.
• 43:31
  And, you know, we just keep doing the same thing over and
• 43:35
  over again and expecting a different result.
• 43:37
  And I honestly think I've extrapolated that all to, I
• 43:41
  think that's why you end up with a lot of kids who were horrible
• 43:47
  drug addicts when they get to be in high school because they
• 43:49
  started off on Ritalin and God knows whatever they gave them to
• 43:53
  keep them calm in the classroom. And then they start
• 43:57
  experimenting with keeping themselves calm.
• 43:59
  And next thing you know, they're shooting up the school because
• 44:02
  they don't know how to do drugs. Right.
• 44:05
  That's one of the things that one of my family members, you
• 44:07
  know, alluded to. They were self medicating
• 44:09
  because they were trying to not feel the way they were
• 44:12
  constantly feeling because of the, the, I don't want to say
• 44:17
  mental illness, but just the, the, you know, the ADHD, the
• 44:20
  ADD, whatever you want to fuck all because, because we weren't
• 44:23
  big. We were when, when, when our
• 44:25
  kids are growing up, when we grew up, right?
• 44:27
  OK, case in point, we were rambunctious in school, right?
• 44:31
  We weren't put on medicine, no. And shut the fuck down, Chris.
• 44:35
  Exactly. And I'll tell you what, to my
• 44:38
  mom's credit, they tried to do that to my brother and my mom
• 44:42
  was even way back then. You're talking like the mid 80s
• 44:45
  'cause he was born in 1981 and they were pleading with her to
• 44:49
  put him on this medication and she was like, no.
• 44:52
  Yeah. We don't know what that's going
• 44:54
  to do to him later on in life, and I'm not going to be
• 44:56
  responsible for that. So, you know, kudos to her for
• 45:01
  dealing with him because he was a handful because nobody really
• 45:04
  knew what that was at that time. You know, you just said, oh,
• 45:07
  they're a handful or they're a problem child or whatever.
• 45:11
  It's like, no, they're a young boy.
• 45:13
  And that's in their DNA. And that's just how he is.
• 45:16
  So like to wrap up his story, that's why he has four jobs.
• 45:20
  He's just got his mind, has to stay busy all the time, so he's
• 45:25
  either sleeping or he's working. He doesn't know anything else.
• 45:27
  Gotcha. Yeah.
• 45:28
  See, we, we fought because people told us that about Scott.
• 45:31
  We're like, no, no, not doing it, not doing it.
• 45:34
  You just, you just, you need to do better as a teacher.
• 45:36
  Not doing it, not. Doing it.
• 45:37
  And kudos to you too, yeah. And then and then we finally did
• 45:40
  it and we're like, oh fuck, whoops, not bad.
• 45:45
  But you know, you don't, you don't want to do that.
• 45:48
  Like you said, like your mom said, you don't know what the
• 45:50
  impact's going to be just like this.
• 45:52
  What is it? I don't have to say it right?
• 45:53
  Ozan Peak or Ozampic. Yeah, I always fucked the word.
• 45:57
  Ozampic. You don't know and I think Nate
• 45:59
  and I talked about touched on this, you don't know the
• 46:02
  Ozampic, right? We don't know the long term
• 46:07
  effect of that. Nobody don't you know?
• 46:11
  And and people. Start making you lose weight
• 46:13
  because it's killing you. Well, I was it's originally for
• 46:15
  diabetes. That's how they discovered it,
• 46:17
  right? It's kind of like how they
• 46:18
  discovered what Viagra did a side effect because it was for
• 46:20
  Navy Seals to keep their blood whatever going during their
• 46:25
  training. Like and then all of a sudden
• 46:27
  all these fucking Navy Seals are standing on the on the beach
• 46:29
  line with heart. They were supposed to thicken up
• 46:30
  their blood and it did such a good job that it gave them all
• 46:33
  boners. Right, right.
• 46:34
  It's like, OK, this is not standing.
• 46:36
  Attention, gentlemen. So but so, so thank you.
• 46:42
  But the, the, the ozone peak thing, whatever, awesome,
• 46:44
  whatever the fuck, I can't say it.
• 46:45
  That was epic. That was for diabetes and then
• 46:49
  they realized that diabetes patients are losing weight all
• 46:52
  of a sudden and what's a multi trillion dollar industry?
• 46:55
  Weight loss. Yeah, what's another multi
• 46:59
  trillion dollar industry? Porn.
• 47:01
  What's another multi trillion dollar industry?
• 47:03
  Health. Porn is a multi billion dollars.
• 47:07
  Industry. Oh yeah, probably billion.
• 47:08
  Probably not trillion because. It's it is still the most it it
• 47:11
  is still responsible for the Internet infrastructure
• 47:15
  maintaining itself. Just for the record, no shit.
• 47:18
  Still to this day. Oh yeah.
• 47:19
  Wow, wow. Always has been.
• 47:22
  That's crazy. It's been the backbone of the
• 47:24
  Internet since the get go. Whether people want to admit
• 47:26
  that or not, that's that's a fucking fact.
• 47:29
  So all you people who say you've never looked at porn, most of
• 47:33
  your liars. You're lying.
• 47:34
  I've looked at. I'm not a big porn guy.
• 47:36
  Never. Have I know, and I believe that
• 47:37
  from you because you're an I've, I've known you since 1994 or
• 47:41
  whatever. I know who you are as a person.
• 47:43
  And when you say that, I believe you.
• 47:45
  Yeah. I've looked at plenty of it.
• 47:47
  It's. Just I've looked at it, I've
• 47:48
  I've looked at it, but it's not something I'm I've been a
• 47:50
  single. Guy, a lot of times in my life
• 47:53
  let's facts are facts, man. Yeah, it's this one.
• 47:56
  This was things like back in the day, right when when all of a
• 47:58
  sudden the celebrity sex tapes come out.
• 48:00
  You know, that was like, oh, oh, let's see Pamela Ashton, you
• 48:03
  know, riding Tommy. What the fuck is his last name?
• 48:06
  Oh, Tommy Lee from, you know, Mötley Crüe.
• 48:08
  Yeah, so that kind of stuff, that's just a human nature of of
• 48:11
  wanting it's it's your curiosity, you know, because you
• 48:14
  hear ramblings that he's hung like a horse.
• 48:16
  I never actually watched it because by the time I go around,
• 48:19
  fuck it, I'll take a look at you.
• 48:20
  Couldn't get it anymore. Well, here's a crazy story.
• 48:24
  Yeah. OK.
• 48:26
  Because, you know, I'm not afraid to help myself because
• 48:29
  what the fuck do I got to lose? Yeah.
• 48:30
  Yeah. And it doesn't matter.
• 48:32
  I mean, it's just part of being a human being.
• 48:34
  But I came from here, you know, just everyday USA, Mayberry, you
• 48:41
  know, 12,000 people. So when I moved to Chicago, that
• 48:45
  was one culture shock. And I learned a lot from people
• 48:48
  up there. That was the first time I ever
• 48:49
  went to a strip club and shit like that.
• 48:51
  Yeah. And then when I moved to
• 48:54
  Phoenix, I obviously met Scott. And one thing Scott was not
• 48:59
  afraid to tell you was that he really liked sex a lot, you
• 49:03
  know, And so he was like, have you ever been to one of those
• 49:09
  shops where they sell the videos, ladies and gentlemen?
• 49:11
  There wasn't always the Internet and you actually had to go to a
• 49:14
  place and you had to buy a fucking like.
• 49:15
  Like, like adult story. OK, Yeah.
• 49:17
  Yeah. So I was like.
• 49:18
  Like a blockbuster for like a blockbuster for adults.
• 49:21
  Yes, yeah. And they were always those tan
• 49:24
  buildings that were very unconspicuous or inconspicuous
• 49:28
  and just had a sign out front and the rest.
• 49:30
  Of the that said adult videos yes yeah there was one there's
• 49:34
  not there anymore that would but when every time we go to the
• 49:36
  Rattlers game where they still played in in Phoenix on on like
• 49:39
  the I don't. Know on I-10, right?
• 49:42
  No, it's off I-10, but off of Lincoln.
• 49:44
  Like you get off on 7th St. or whatever and then and you're
• 49:46
  going to turn on Lincoln to go towards the towards the Suns
• 49:49
  Arena. It was it was just weird like
• 49:50
  you just said, like a beige building.
• 49:52
  Yep. And the windows were there, but
• 49:55
  they were glossed over with something and it had this this
• 49:58
  not neon sign, but just a regular sign on the wall that
• 50:02
  said what is it? Adult XXX videos.
• 50:05
  That's all it said. That was it.
• 50:06
  That was. All it said, and there was
• 50:08
  always cars in the parking lot. Always because what I didn't
• 50:11
  know is they had a backroom to that place that very few people
• 50:17
  that went to those places knew about, where they had like
• 50:20
  fucking peep shows like the 1970s.
• 50:23
  Or oh shit. Yes, this is the part that
• 50:25
  scattering. So like Amsterdam, the red light
• 50:28
  district? Cause I've never been to
• 50:29
  Amsterdam, nor have you. Nor have I.
• 50:31
  We would have been if, if we would have went on a worldwide
• 50:33
  tour. But I've, I've, I've heard the
• 50:35
  stories that you, you put money, you go in those things, you put
• 50:37
  money in the little thing and then the, the screen comes up
• 50:40
  and there's a chick doing whatever she's doing.
• 50:42
  OK, so that's the place he took me to you.
• 50:44
  Know I was like I'm. I'm perusing around the videos
• 50:47
  and he's like, what are you doing man?
• 50:49
  You go fucking buy a video? I'm like I don't know, I just
• 50:52
  look and he says follow me so. You know he talked to.
• 50:56
  Whoever. And then we go in the fucking
• 50:58
  backroom and yeah, the curtain opens up and no shit, there
• 51:01
  wasn't like a coin. Operated thing you just.
• 51:04
  Paid the guy, you know, and then you went back there and the
• 51:07
  curtain opened and you got your show or whatever and if you
• 51:10
  wanted another one then you paid more money or whatever.
• 51:12
  But I'd, you know, it was culture shock enough for me to
• 51:16
  walk into an adult video store and this fucker takes me back
• 51:20
  and shows me real life chicks who are stripping in the back
• 51:23
  that I had. So that's what I was going to
• 51:25
  ask. What was the show?
• 51:27
  The strip, it was just basically a strip tease.
• 51:29
  Yeah, so they're. Behind a piece of plexiglass,
• 51:31
  you can't touch them or anything and they can't even touch you.
• 51:34
  They're just behind a piece of glass and you're sitting in a
• 51:37
  chair. And I'm not sure how that's real
• 51:40
  appealing for people. But no, I don't see, I've never.
• 51:43
  And we've, I think we've talked. About this I've never had.
• 51:45
  I've never really understood the appeal for strip clubs because
• 51:48
  you can't touch the chick. You're not going home with the
• 51:50
  chick, right? No, but for me it was more about
• 51:54
  the. Camaraderie of hanging out with
• 51:56
  my buddies. So like you're, you were with
• 51:58
  Nikki and Rick was with Carrie and Scott was with Carrie,
• 52:02
  right? So when you guys would go your
• 52:03
  separate ways, I would hang out with my buddy Dave Smith.
• 52:07
  And he was newly back from the Gulf War and crazy as a fucking
• 52:11
  woman, and he'd love to hang out at strip clubs.
• 52:15
  So for me, I associated it with hanging out with him.
• 52:18
  And then Ray Stone, he played at the naval base, which was off
• 52:22
  I-17. Huge fucking place.
• 52:25
  They would have like, penthouse pets and Playboy Playmates come
• 52:29
  through and dance, you know, on their little tours and shit.
• 52:32
  The USO stuff. Yep.
• 52:34
  Yeah, crazy stuff. Like that.
• 52:36
  So they actually had a live band instead of having a DJ on Friday
• 52:40
  and Saturday night. So Ray's band played there.
• 52:44
  I I wasn't. Necessarily going there.
• 52:47
  As you know, I'm going to pick up chicks because you I saw very
• 52:50
  quickly that that wasn't going to happen and the girls that got
• 52:54
  to know me, especially going to see Ray play, they would totally
• 52:59
  understand. That and I.
• 53:00
  Would get all kinds of friends benefits, you know, free dances
• 53:02
  and free drinks. And like, I'm not here to hit on
• 53:05
  you. And I learned a lot about them
• 53:07
  there too. Like a lot of them would get
• 53:09
  stuck in the trap where people don't understand us.
• 53:12
  A lot of them are really going to school.
• 53:15
  You know, that's not just a story.
• 53:17
  They are really going to school to be accountants and doctors
• 53:20
  and lawyers and whatever. But here's the trap they fall
• 53:23
  into. They can make $2500 a day, some
• 53:27
  of them up to three, or $4000 a day being a stripper untaxed.
• 53:36
  And I've and I and I've sold. House right and I've.
• 53:38
  Sold houses in the past, I mean years ago to strippers and when,
• 53:42
  when you could have mattress money, mattress money, boys and
• 53:45
  girls, was if you had a home, you had money in your safe.
• 53:47
  You just had to explain to the lender, oh, I have, you know,
• 53:50
  $60,000 in my safe at home because I'm a dancer and they
• 53:54
  deposit it in their bank over, you know, a 90 day period of
• 53:58
  time. And then we can use, then it's
• 54:00
  seasoned and then we can use that for their down payment and
• 54:03
  closing costs, whatever. Now it doesn't work because it's
• 54:06
  mattress money and and you know, if they're still making that
• 54:09
  kind of money, right? Because why would they have
• 54:10
  stopped? But you can't there's, you got
• 54:15
  to claim it if you deposit it. And if so, it's just weird
• 54:18
  little shit now. But yeah, and they were, they
• 54:21
  were the, they were the, they were fun to work with because
• 54:23
  there wasn't, it wasn't, there is no nothing of a there's no
• 54:28
  sexual. Innuendos at all?
• 54:30
  Like people got to understand that they're, they're humans.
• 54:32
  I'm a, I'm a, I'm a realtor. I'm selling them a property.
• 54:34
  That's it 100% business. So there's no flirting.
• 54:37
  There was no fucking around. There was no there was no
• 54:40
  innuendo discussions at all. And I think that's why I ended
• 54:43
  up selling two or three because I legit just I don't care what
• 54:47
  you do for a living. My job is to find you a house.
• 54:49
  You strip cool. That means you have cash.
• 54:51
  You can, you can you can pay your own closing costs.
• 54:53
  Let's go. You know, I don't care.
• 54:56
  I could care less what you do. It's none of my business.
• 54:58
  I all I want to know is you're approved how much you want to
• 55:00
  spend. Let's go.
• 55:02
  Well, that was initially the problem.
• 55:04
  With when the state of Colorado made marijuana legal, they were
• 55:09
  the first state obviously, right.
• 55:12
  So the federal government did two things, which was bullshit.
• 55:16
  They immediately told all the pot distributors, anybody who
• 55:21
  was in that business, they said they told the banks, if you
• 55:25
  accept any money from any of these businesses, we, we will
• 55:29
  revoke your FDIC, you know, Deposit Insurance immediately.
• 55:33
  That'll be the first thing that'll happen.
• 55:35
  So that that's since been fixed, but the next thing they did is
• 55:39
  since it was federally illegal, they tried to do raids on these
• 55:44
  grow houses, which was bullshit too.
• 55:48
  Yeah, it was a rough. Start, but yeah.
• 55:52
  Oh. Yeah, you know what I found they
• 55:54
  made. It super rough when we.
• 55:57
  Were in New Orleans. In March, New Orleans is not a
• 56:01
  marijuana Free State. I find that.
• 56:05
  Right. Hard to believe.
• 56:06
  Yeah, I, I was. Blown away by.
• 56:08
  That I was thinking and. You know, I was just no shit,
• 56:11
  like, like, like really. Arizona's got.
• 56:14
  Dispensaries fucking every corner, which I find that hard
• 56:17
  to believe. Right.
• 56:19
  And and when you told me that, I was shocked.
• 56:21
  Because mostly. Arizona's Republican
• 56:24
  conservatives, Yeah. No, I have.
• 56:26
  I just topped my head, 'cause I drive by.
• 56:27
  Him one. There's at least 2 within 5
• 56:33
  miles of my house as I go. Is it all of Arizona or is it
• 56:36
  just Maricopa? County.
• 56:37
  I don't. I don't know.
• 56:38
  I don't know. I know Illinois.
• 56:40
  Has them in certain spots because when I was back there
• 56:42
  years ago for my, my, oh, the whole state of Illinois, yeah,
• 56:45
  so I know. But yeah, New Orleans.
• 56:48
  It's it's not, it's one of the things when we got there, we
• 56:50
  were fucking around, you know, walking up and down where
• 56:53
  Bourbon Street is, but the street off Bourbon Street, like
• 56:55
  all where all the other stuff is and and I you see smoke shops
• 56:59
  And so I left at Nikki. I'm like, there's no
• 57:01
  dispensaries around here and that you know, and so we went
• 57:04
  back to the room and we went back to the room.
• 57:06
  I Googled it. New Orleans does not have
• 57:07
  medical marijuana. I know it has medical.
• 57:10
  That's it. You have to have, you have to
• 57:12
  have all the proper documentation for medical
• 57:16
  purposes only. It's not recreational at all,
• 57:18
  which I was. The only problem in Illinois is
• 57:20
  you can't afford to buy it. Is that expensive?
• 57:23
  Oh, it's. So there's. 5 taxes that they
• 57:27
  can exercise on marijuana. Illinois exercises four of them.
• 57:33
  The state of Michigan only exercises 2 and they're capped,
• 57:37
  which is why you drive to Michigan.
• 57:39
  Yes. And their taxes are.
• 57:41
  Capped at a flat 10%. Oh, that's good.
• 57:44
  We have like. A 23%.
• 57:47
  Tax for anything over 50% THC there's the actual THC tax
• 57:53
  there's a state tax there's a county tax it's fucking
• 57:58
  outrageous see and I. Always believed.
• 58:00
  I was of the train of thought when they.
• 58:01
  Started the album with with legalizing it.
• 58:03
  Like I liked what Colorado did and I thought, OK, well if you
• 58:07
  take the legalization of marijuana and then you tax the
• 58:09
  fuck out of it, kind of like you're saying like you tax
• 58:11
  cigarettes and you tax beer and you tax alcohol.
• 58:12
  Illinois made $1.2 billion. For 2024, OK, see so that so you
• 58:18
  take the. Revenue you make from selling
• 58:20
  marijuana legally and you pump it into schools.
• 58:25
  That's not happening. I know.
• 58:27
  Which is fucked up. Nobody knows where.
• 58:29
  That money is going, which is fucked up.
• 58:31
  Because think about it. If if imagine.
• 58:32
  If Arizona school districts, if you do it, if you do it, if you
• 58:36
  do it citywide. So like say you have 5
• 58:38
  dispensaries in Chandler, so you tax that and the taxes that are
• 58:41
  taxed that are collected from those five dispensaries in
• 58:43
  Chandler goes in the Channel Unified School District.
• 58:46
  You know what I'm saying? Same with Tempe, same with
• 58:47
  Phoenix. Same with We got one here,
• 58:49
  believe it or not, in our little town.
• 58:50
  We. Have one that I agree with you,
• 58:52
  that money should go straight to the grade schools and the high
• 58:55
  school because. Yeah, because you know, like,
• 58:58
  like. Gaming right salt the the all I
• 59:01
  know is Navajos and a patch. So the Navajos when they have
• 59:04
  their casinos and shit, don't get mad at me.
• 59:06
  People don't get mad at me, Tony OK, because I'm just ignorant
• 59:09
  when it comes to that. But, and I don't recall, I guess
• 59:11
  it's Indian gaming, right. OK, so the Indian gaming, right,
• 59:16
  a big portion of that goes back to their people, not enough and
• 59:18
  I don't know what the fuck to do with it.
• 59:20
  But then another portion of that goes to schools because there's
• 59:23
  there's Nikki gets money every year based on the gaming
• 59:26
  procedure. I don't know how because that
• 59:29
  was an agreement they, I think that they made.
• 59:31
  Probably, but so that's benefiting.
• 59:34
  Non reservationists, right, so and I don't think they have to
• 59:38
  do that so they might they. Probably do that out of the
• 59:40
  kindness of their heart because that's sovereign land and
• 59:44
  they're making bank and you can I'm just saying that that's.
• 59:46
  Cool that they do that because there's.
• 59:48
  Probably. They probably don't have to,
• 59:50
  being that they're not governed by the federal government,
• 59:53
  right? Agreed.
• 59:54
  But I think it probably helps. It helps their public image.
• 59:59
  For sure, Yes, yes, and and it and it.
• 1:00:02
  Does they pump money into schools?
• 1:00:03
  And you can tell when they get their checks in Arizona because
• 1:00:05
  all of a sudden when you're driving through those, those
• 1:00:07
  parts of the Valley, oh, brand new Escalade 120, there's an
• 1:00:11
  F-150. Oh, there's a Dodge.
• 1:00:12
  Oh, there's a Bentley. Like somebody got their checks.
• 1:00:16
  Their houses are fucking falling apart.
• 1:00:20
  Nothing in the yard. I'll tell you what's going to
• 1:00:22
  happen. To Illinois is the same thing
• 1:00:26
  that happened to Michigan, only Michigan was smart from the get
• 1:00:29
  go. Marijuana grows very easily, so
• 1:00:34
  when you have scientists. Growing it, which is what they
• 1:00:37
  have. Now, like these grow houses,
• 1:00:39
  they employ biologists who graduate from an actual
• 1:00:43
  university and have degrees. So for the people who are anti
• 1:00:46
  marijuana, who are listening to this out there, the industry
• 1:00:49
  that cropped up around it, no pun intended, but it really you.
• 1:00:55
  Know you have, chemist you have. Biologist you have botanist you
• 1:00:59
  know all these people are now employed who had degrees in this
• 1:01:02
  that couldn't find jobs elsewhere that's beside the
• 1:01:04
  point. Marijuana is super easy to grow
• 1:01:07
  for anybody for an idiot can grow it right.
• 1:01:11
  So when you have trained professionals.
• 1:01:12
  Growing it. You end up with yields that are
• 1:01:16
  out of this world, and now they're.
• 1:01:21
  Well, they are I. Thought I was going to say
• 1:01:24
  they're practically giving it away.
• 1:01:25
  There were three billboards on my way there last time that
• 1:01:28
  said, if you're one of the 1st 310 customers today, we'll give
• 1:01:31
  you a free half oz. So they're literally giving weed
• 1:01:34
  away up there. Wow, the same thing's going to.
• 1:01:37
  Happen to Illinois? They're going to find that
• 1:01:40
  they're going to end up with way too much product because
• 1:01:43
  nobody's going to pay that exorbitant amount forever.
• 1:01:46
  You just can't, OK. And then they're going to have
• 1:01:50
  to. Drive the prices down.
• 1:01:52
  As of this just this was. December 18th. 2006 OK because I
• 1:01:58
  googled this shit in two. 1006 This the.
• 1:02:01
  The the I asked. I asked Google marijuana crops
• 1:02:05
  in America. So I clicked on the button.
• 1:02:08
  What is the USA's largest cash crop?
• 1:02:10
  OK, 2006. This is 2025.
• 1:02:14
  The study estimates that marijuana production at a value
• 1:02:16
  of 35.8 billion exceeds the combined value of corn 23.3
• 1:02:22
  billion and wheat 7.5 billion. To Activist for marijuana
• 1:02:26
  legalization study confirms a position they've held for years
• 1:02:30
  and uses government stats to support their claim.
• 1:02:32
  That was in 2635. That's why I was hoping I was.
• 1:02:37
  Going to get that. Chart Marijuana.
• 1:02:41
  Is the 6th biggest. Cash crop in the United States.
• 1:02:46
  This was a This is August 2023. A report in 2022 saw cannabis
• 1:02:51
  harvest of 2.83 metric tons. That's a lot of fuck tons, up to
• 1:02:57
  24% from 2021. While the.
• 1:03:01
  The count of states having legalized marijuana stands only
• 1:03:05
  at 23 15 had at the time of the release of the new report come
• 1:03:10
  as far as opening state license. Retail stores mainly do their
• 1:03:13
  flurry legislation since 21 altering 9 states the the 15
• 1:03:17
  states where dispensaries are open and tied to more than
• 1:03:20
  13,000 active legal cannabis farms.
• 1:03:23
  According to leafy. This is a thing called leafy
• 1:03:26
  leafy. Well, here's the real tragedy
• 1:03:28
  and I'll have you look this. Up too when we were sold this
• 1:03:33
  horrible bill of goods that basically prohibited people from
• 1:03:37
  doing marijuana, they also prohibited farmers from growing
• 1:03:42
  hemp at the same time because they didn't understand that it
• 1:03:44
  was two different products right.
• 1:03:46
  You only get buds from the female plant.
• 1:03:49
  For those of you who are listening that don't know a lot
• 1:03:52
  about growing marijuana cannabis, the male plant is full
• 1:03:57
  of essential, essential nutrients.
• 1:04:01
  You can build buildings out of it you.
• 1:04:05
  Can make. Clothes out of it and it's
• 1:04:07
  basically like a plant from space, right?
• 1:04:10
  Everything in everything like the Jesus time.
• 1:04:12
  And the pirates and shit, a lot of those, a lot of those, all
• 1:04:15
  that shit was made-up. Every bit of it was the.
• 1:04:17
  Ropes the yeah yeah so type in is growing hemp legal anywhere
• 1:04:25
  in the United States because the other thing they do is they make
• 1:04:29
  like well you would be familiar with it so would Nate a lot of
• 1:04:34
  your supplements are made out of CBC and CBC now before.
• 1:04:39
  Before I go off of this page, because what I just read a
• 1:04:41
  minute ago was, was in 2006 marijuana beat out corn and
• 1:04:46
  wheat combined, right? According to this thing, in
• 1:04:49
  2022, marijuana was only a $5 billion.
• 1:04:54
  So somebody's fucking massaging the stats there and and corn was
• 1:04:59
  82.6 billion. So you know, somebody's lying.
• 1:05:03
  Hemp, hemp, hemp, hemp. I just want to know if it's
• 1:05:06
  legal to grow anywhere. In the United States.
• 1:05:08
  Yet I would think it would be. Is it legal to grow hemp in
• 1:05:15
  America? Hemp is a legal crop in the
• 1:05:19
  United States. It was.
• 1:05:21
  It was legal in the 18th and 19th century.
• 1:05:24
  Then production was effectively banned until the mid 20th
• 1:05:26
  century and has returned as a legal crop in the 21st century.
• 1:05:31
  Nice How? How many can you grow hemp
• 1:05:33
  legally? In order to produce hemp in the
• 1:05:34
  United States, you must obtain A hemp license from the proved
• 1:05:36
  regulatory licensing authority in the state, tribe, tribe, or
• 1:05:41
  US territory where you intended to produce hemp.
• 1:05:46
  Where can you grow hemp in the United States?
• 1:05:48
  Colorado, The Rocky Mountain State enjoys an established long
• 1:05:52
  running hemp program with clear and reliable rules.
• 1:05:55
  Oregon Oregon farmers like those in the Colorado benefit from a
• 1:05:59
  business friendly Department of Agricultural.
• 1:06:00
  New York, South Dakota. I'm surprised by New York, Idaho
• 1:06:05
  and Mississippi is Is hemp legal in all 50 states?
• 1:06:09
  CBD possession in 50 states Yes. Contrary to popular opinion, CBD
• 1:06:14
  is not illegal is not legal in all 50 states, even if it's
• 1:06:17
  sourced from hemp. This is because all states have
• 1:06:20
  their own Controlled Substance Act which generally mirror this
• 1:06:23
  the federal CSA which is so stupid that they call CBD.
• 1:06:28
  A controlled substance because it it's only positive.
• 1:06:31
  There's only positive. You don't get high from it,
• 1:06:33
  right? Because it is.
• 1:06:34
  It's because it says can I? Grow my own hip, but it says
• 1:06:37
  it's legally it's legal federally in all 50 states.
• 1:06:40
  That's awesome. That's I guess that's what I was
• 1:06:42
  looking for any. Cannabis planter product that
• 1:06:44
  has a higher. Than .03% THC content is
• 1:06:47
  classified as marijuana from both a legal and commercial
• 1:06:50
  standpoint, so it's important to know the THC levels in the
• 1:06:53
  species, variety or hybrid that you plan to grow.
• 1:06:57
  Well, you're only going to get THC out of the female.
• 1:06:59
  Plant. So if you got a bunch of male
• 1:07:00
  plants, you're going to be waiting a while.
• 1:07:03
  How much does simp Hemp Hemp Hemp.
• 1:07:05
  Hemp. Hemp sell for a pound, $600.00
• 1:07:09
  per pound THC hemp flour price per pound.
• 1:07:16
  I was as I'm saying this, I'm thinking about that person that
• 1:07:18
  gave us feedback about every time you say pee on the on the
• 1:07:20
  podcast and you get the the people prevent prevent pee pig
• 1:07:23
  Peck pickled. You have a windscreen on the
• 1:07:25
  front of that microphone. Oh.
• 1:07:26
  That's what that is. Yeah, right on.
• 1:07:28
  The actual microphone is way down inside.
• 1:07:31
  That microphone? Oh cool, you can take that
• 1:07:33
  screen off and you'll see where the actual diaphragm is.
• 1:07:36
  Oh, I can touch it. I can touch it.
• 1:07:38
  OK. Yeah.
• 1:07:38
  So. So for greenhouse and mixed
• 1:07:42
  light grown THC, and it has a weird thing.
• 1:07:44
  THCA like THC is all caps and a little tiny.
• 1:07:47
  A hemp flower. Yeah, they've subdivided it into
• 1:07:50
  THCA. And THC, maybe it's B or C if I
• 1:07:55
  don't remember. So March 26th, 2000. 24 It's
• 1:07:59
  between 614 hundred a pound with an average price of $823 per
• 1:08:02
  pound. I wonder how many I?
• 1:08:05
  Wonder how many hemp plants you would need to produce?
• 1:08:07
  A pound of hemp. Because a lot.
• 1:08:09
  Yeah. I won't.
• 1:08:12
  I won't name any names, but you. You.
• 1:08:14
  Know who I'm talking about? That's how much our friend was
• 1:08:17
  buying a pound for in the early to mid nineties, $600.00 OK, so.
• 1:08:26
  So it's a very stable product too.
• 1:08:28
  I guess that's. My point?
• 1:08:29
  Yeah, and it takes a few weeks for the seeds to.
• 1:08:31
  Sprout and to grow into healthy seedlings.
• 1:08:34
  Hemp that is. But you can harvest hemp as soon
• 1:08:37
  as the seeds start to develop, which takes about four months.
• 1:08:40
  If you harvest them sooner, the stem won't be as sturdy.
• 1:08:42
  See what I'm saying though? You can get like a.
• 1:08:45
  Lot of growing seasons because it only takes you know, between
• 1:08:49
  four and six months to get a usable crop, right?
• 1:08:53
  So you're going to get 3 crops a year if you're, you know, soils
• 1:08:56
  turned over right and you know what you're doing right.
• 1:09:02
  So I should just turn my acre into a hemp production farm?
• 1:09:05
  You should yes, start. Making sales Build the next
• 1:09:08
  Mayflower honey. We're going to start growing
• 1:09:11
  hemp in the pasture. Fuck the chicken.
• 1:09:13
  So you don't watch S Parker? That would be even funnier
• 1:09:15
  because. That's what Randy did.
• 1:09:16
  He moved to the country and became a hemp farmer.
• 1:09:19
  OK, Yeah. I've never watched South Park.
• 1:09:21
  Never tried to. It's.
• 1:09:23
  Kind of like Breaking Bad. I never watched Breaking Bad,
• 1:09:25
  but Breaking, Dude, I know it hit too close to home man in the
• 1:09:29
  high for me too. Trust me.
• 1:09:30
  Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, I get it.
• 1:09:34
  We're doing. We just watched them.
• 1:09:36
  We're on the we have we're one episode left, I think for the
• 1:09:39
  Yellowstone wrap up. So that's a trip if you haven't
• 1:09:42
  been watching Yellowstone. Oh yeah, I'm all caught up on
• 1:09:44
  that. So we're at the one where they
• 1:09:50
  just. They auctioned everything off.
• 1:09:51
  They got 30. $1,000,000 And in case he's like, hey, how much is
• 1:09:54
  that Bentley worth? Well, it's worth shit because
• 1:09:56
  it's at least well if you owned it, $300,000.
• 1:09:59
  So if I bought it for a dollar, would it be taxed on the dollar
• 1:10:01
  or $300,000? And then she was like the dollar
• 1:10:06
  and then all of a sudden every, all the bells went off.
• 1:10:08
  So that's where we're at. That's what so so I'm I'm Nikki
• 1:10:11
  and I are the of the of the like mind that they're going to sell
• 1:10:14
  it to RIP for like a buck and Ripple pay taxes on a buck.
• 1:10:18
  Because he deserves it. More than anybody.
• 1:10:20
  And then, you know, stick it to the man that way.
• 1:10:23
  Who knows? But don't tell me.
• 1:10:24
  I don't want to know. Nikki likes his writer called
• 1:10:27
  Harlan Corbin. So we just, we finished watching
• 1:10:30
  this show called Missing You. It's pretty good, but it's
• 1:10:33
  based. It's Netflix.
• 1:10:35
  If you if Harlan Coburn, whatever, if you type in missing
• 1:10:38
  you, you'll get all It's got a whole bunch of cool crime drama
• 1:10:40
  shit we watched that don't move where the chick gets paralyzed.
• 1:10:48
  That was a that was a good. It was it.
• 1:10:50
  Wasn't one of those that you're glued to the screen because you
• 1:10:54
  could get up and leave and come back in the room and you still
• 1:10:56
  know what's going on. So it was a cool background
• 1:10:58
  movie that was entertaining enough to keep your attention.
• 1:11:03
  The concept was really cool. None of it was really far
• 1:11:07
  fetched. Some of the things the serial
• 1:11:08
  killer did and it was was like fucking really, dude.
• 1:11:12
  But other than that, it was it was it was a good flick.
• 1:11:14
  It was one of the guys, the serial killer was a guy from the
• 1:11:17
  American Horror Story series. It wasn't Tate the the blonde
• 1:11:21
  one who's just a fucking phenomenal actor.
• 1:11:24
  That's another guy. I forget what he played in in in
• 1:11:27
  the in the series, but he's a good actor.
• 1:11:29
  And then the chick, the reason I brought that up, the chick in it
• 1:11:32
  was Casey's wife in Yellowstone. That's who plays the main female
• 1:11:35
  character in Missing You. Oh, nice.
• 1:11:37
  Yeah. So it's it's a good.
• 1:11:39
  And you don't realize how. Fucking like TV ads 10 lbs.
• 1:11:43
  This fucking chicks are real man.
• 1:11:45
  Like there's nothing to her. Yeah, Rogan said.
• 1:11:48
  That's bullshit. Those.
• 1:11:49
  People are just fat, he said. I don't know what he said.
• 1:11:53
  I've. Always heard that.
• 1:11:54
  And he was on News Radio for, what, five years?
• 1:11:58
  He's like, I look like me, man. Well, no, but she really is.
• 1:12:03
  She's. A real dude.
• 1:12:04
  Oh, she is. Super skinny, no question.
• 1:12:07
  Like when? She was walking away one of the
• 1:12:08
  scenes. She's walking through the forest
• 1:12:09
  with the serial killer, not knowing he was a serial killer
• 1:12:12
  and legit like her. You know, you have the woman's
• 1:12:16
  ass, which we all love women's asses.
• 1:12:19
  And. And then you have, you know,
• 1:12:20
  little apple part. Little apple part that goes up
• 1:12:23
  and then, you know, the legs come down.
• 1:12:25
  Like there was nothing left in the imagination.
• 1:12:27
  She's that skinny and she's wearing tight fitting jeans.
• 1:12:29
  Not that there was anything exposed, but just you could see
• 1:12:32
  that. Wow, she's just skinny.
• 1:12:34
  Like there's nothing there. Yeah.
• 1:12:36
  I almost like the mystery more than the reward.
• 1:12:38
  Sometimes. Well, yeah, no, and it wasn't.
• 1:12:40
  It wasn't anything revealing. It's just it's you could tell
• 1:12:43
  somebody's really skinny from behind, you know, you just can
• 1:12:47
  because you can, you know, and she was wondering what would be
• 1:12:52
  we worn in the mountains anyway. So you know, have you guys
• 1:12:55
  watched Happy Face? On Paramount, yeah, I, I, I
• 1:12:58
  started it and then. And then I haven't watched it
• 1:13:01
  yet. Yeah, I I started it, but I
• 1:13:03
  didn't. I didn't.
• 1:13:04
  I didn't. I'm waiting till all the
• 1:13:05
  episodes come out. I don't like to.
• 1:13:06
  Wait for that shit drives me nuts.
• 1:13:09
  I didn't give it the attention it deserved because it came
• 1:13:11
  across. The the thing the other day I
• 1:13:12
  was like, Oh yeah, happy face. Yeah, I keep meaning to ask you
• 1:13:15
  about that every time I. See the preview for it.
• 1:13:17
  And I just keep forgetting that's based on the true story.
• 1:13:20
  Yeah, that's why I want to. Watch it.
• 1:13:22
  Yeah, her dad was a. Serial killer, yeah, Which is,
• 1:13:25
  you know, that's kind of cool. You know it's.
• 1:13:26
  Kind of like how how how Jake the the, the, the call by call
• 1:13:31
  by call, play by play guy. He's serial killer.
• 1:13:34
  You know that Lights was going to live on forever.
• 1:13:39
  Jake the serial killer. Jake serial killer.
• 1:13:41
  Poor kids going to go to get a fucking job and they're going to
• 1:13:44
  be like. Nope.
• 1:13:44
  You're. You're a known serial killer.
• 1:13:46
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was funny.
• 1:13:48
  It was funny. It's just.
• 1:13:49
  My persona on the radio. You're right.
• 1:13:57
  All right. Hey.
• 1:13:58
  I got one that'll. Blow you away, OK.
• 1:14:00
  Good. I was going to say anything else
• 1:14:01
  we want to talk about? Oh.
• 1:14:02
  Yeah, this one I. I had to do a double take on
• 1:14:06
  this. It says the last time all living
• 1:14:08
  humans were on earth simultaneously was October 31st,
• 1:14:11
  2000. Mama Kay's birthday, by the way.
• 1:14:13
  OK, happy birthday mom. Gay October.
• 1:14:16
  The last time all living humans were on Earth.
• 1:14:18
  Simultaneously was October 31st, 2000.
• 1:14:22
  So it says since October 31st, 2000, humans have maintained A
• 1:14:26
  continuous presence in space aboard the International Space
• 1:14:29
  Station. This began with Expedition 1,
• 1:14:31
  and since then crews from around the world have rotated in and
• 1:14:34
  out, conducting scientific research and advancing space
• 1:14:38
  exploration without a break. So we've always had someone off
• 1:14:42
  the planet for the last 25 years.
• 1:14:44
  I I saw some bullshit the other day.
• 1:14:47
  And I called bullshit because I just called bullshit that
• 1:14:49
  there's going to be hotels in space by 2027.
• 1:14:53
  I saw that same thing. I just, I don't.
• 1:14:56
  If if that was. True.
• 1:14:57
  I think there'd be a lot more document documentation on it and
• 1:15:04
  the progress. I did see something was
• 1:15:06
  interesting on on Instagram because I followed NASA and
• 1:15:10
  stuff. They had, they had the Earth and
• 1:15:13
  then they had, I don't know how they got the picture of the
• 1:15:15
  Earth like they're hanging out on, on Saturn or something.
• 1:15:17
  Had this, you know, outside angle looking in on Earth and
• 1:15:21
  the satellites this from 1965 to now.
• 1:15:26
  That's fucking crazy. Yeah, because we kind of.
• 1:15:29
  Touched on this one, I told you. That there were what they say if
• 1:15:32
  they don't do something by 20, 35 or 2040 or something might
• 1:15:38
  have been sooner than that. If we don't make some kind of
• 1:15:41
  concerted effort, we're stuck. We're not going to be able to
• 1:15:44
  get off the planet. Yeah, no.
• 1:15:46
  And they and you got to imagine here's.
• 1:15:47
  Another one that'll blow you away, OK.
• 1:15:50
  Oh no. Say what you're going to say.
• 1:15:53
  Well, no, I should say that you got to imagine some of those
• 1:15:55
  things. Are fucking going to start
• 1:15:56
  falling out of the sky? Yes.
• 1:15:59
  You know, that was another worry that they had.
• 1:16:01
  And how do you launch? How do you go to the moon?
• 1:16:04
  Or how do you go into space without running into satellites?
• 1:16:07
  And when when the space station guys are taking pictures
• 1:16:10
  outside, how come you can't see the satellites?
• 1:16:13
  You can you all of a sudden you can start seeing UFOs and ship,
• 1:16:16
  but why aren't you seeing the satellites have?
• 1:16:17
  So here's the problem. OK.
• 1:16:20
  It's not that. It's like.
• 1:16:22
  The LA Freeway at 4:00. Good analogy.
• 1:16:26
  Good analogy. It's that we only have.
• 1:16:30
  A couple windows on earth to get into space, like launch angle
• 1:16:35
  and trajectory. I knew that, which is why stuff
• 1:16:38
  gets scrubbed. The problem?
• 1:16:40
  Is is if we get too many? Orbiting objects.
• 1:16:43
  There's always going to be an object going by when we need to
• 1:16:46
  get out. You know what I'm saying?
• 1:16:49
  That's the problem. It's not that we're going to be
• 1:16:51
  like, and it they did say that if we continue at the rate we're
• 1:16:54
  going, it will be like the LA freeway at 4:00.
• 1:16:58
  But our problem right now is we're going to have enough
• 1:17:01
  things orbiting the Earth that the few places that we can
• 1:17:06
  actually get off the planet from, it's not an accident that
• 1:17:09
  they do it from Florida and Texas and certain places in
• 1:17:12
  China. And you know, they strategically
• 1:17:15
  position these because that's the safest way to get off the
• 1:17:18
  planet. You can't just go straight up
• 1:17:21
  and slam. Into whatever.
• 1:17:22
  You know, all that shit's way above my head.
• 1:17:24
  But yeah, they have. They have.
• 1:17:27
  To go out at specific points. And if we launch too many
• 1:17:30
  satellites that are orbiting the Earth, everything will be
• 1:17:35
  clogged up to where there's always going to be a satellite
• 1:17:37
  going by when we want to launch our rocket out there.
• 1:17:39
  Well, and you would think with the technology we have that
• 1:17:42
  we've. We've now been obviously digging
• 1:17:44
  deeper into the alien artifacts that we have and people like
• 1:17:47
  Elon Musk, who's brilliant. I don't care what anybody really
• 1:17:49
  thinks. I mean, the man himself is
• 1:17:51
  fucking brilliant. You love him, I hate him.
• 1:17:52
  I don't give a fuck. He's brilliant.
• 1:17:53
  You call for what it is. It may be a whack A mole, but
• 1:17:55
  he's fucking brilliant. If anybody says he's stupid,
• 1:17:58
  they're they're. Stupid.
• 1:18:00
  Yeah, he's a genius. So you would think they could
• 1:18:03
  take you. Shouldn't be?
• 1:18:03
  Running the government agreed, so we.
• 1:18:06
  Have you know say. There's, let's just say there's
• 1:18:08
  10 million satellites orbiting Earth, right?
• 1:18:11
  Yes, OK. I don't know if that's an
• 1:18:13
  accurate number. Or not, but let's just say
• 1:18:15
  there's 10 million satellites orbiting Earth.
• 1:18:16
  Why can't we take 5 million of them and then flush them down
• 1:18:19
  the toilet and then and just take 10 satellites and combine
• 1:18:23
  the usage for those 50 million or those 5 million?
• 1:18:26
  You know what I mean? Like, like you can build a
• 1:18:27
  better spaceship, right? Because he proved that like, he
• 1:18:30
  can launch that spaceship and then the fucking booster comes
• 1:18:32
  back and lands itself. So you're no longer wasting the
• 1:18:35
  booster. Except for the time he did build
• 1:18:37
  a better rocket, right? So why?
• 1:18:39
  Not build a multi purpose. Satellite.
• 1:18:41
  Well, I think that's probably where his brain is going, you
• 1:18:43
  know? Do something that that.
• 1:18:46
  I mean, you got to have you got to have a couple, right?
• 1:18:48
  You won't have just you don't want to have one satellite
• 1:18:50
  designed to to cover all communications because that
• 1:18:52
  would fuck us all up. Which one is it there?
• 1:18:56
  OK, USA is black now because we just shot down their shit.
• 1:19:00
  So you you got to have some variables, right?
• 1:19:02
  But you would think they could condense what's up there and
• 1:19:06
  make it more manageable. That would be a fascinating
• 1:19:09
  field trip, right? Going to NASA, to the satellite
• 1:19:11
  station, seeing how many satellites do you have in space?
• 1:19:13
  Let's ask. That would be awesome.
• 1:19:15
  How? Many.
• 1:19:17
  Satellites. Oh, fucking, it's like, it's
• 1:19:20
  like it's listening to us, Mike, It is.
• 1:19:25
  Who? Owns the most satellites in
• 1:19:27
  space. the United States has over 8000.
• 1:19:30
  Russia has over 1500, China has over 800, and the United Kingdom
• 1:19:35
  has over 700. So you're talking like what, 15?
• 1:19:40
  1000 roughly Starlink. Starlink itself has.
• 1:19:43
  Over 7000 satellites. OK.
• 1:19:45
  So if if the US has 8000 of them, so does DIRECTV and Dish.
• 1:19:49
  And that didn't answer my question.
• 1:19:51
  How many satellites are in orbit?
• 1:19:52
  Now I want to know how many now there it is OK.
• 1:19:58
  Wow, I was. Way off my 10 million, according
• 1:20:01
  to UNOSA. I knew one that many there are
• 1:20:05
  8. 1261. Satellites orbiting the Earth as
• 1:20:08
  of January 2022. Now we know.
• 1:20:12
  So in 2023, it's 9115. OK, because I was going to say
• 1:20:16
  Elon, that was the last one. I.
• 1:20:18
  Got Elon Musk has been launching.
• 1:20:19
  Shit every month. Yeah, it says the number
• 1:20:23
  increased significantly. Driven largely by the growth of
• 1:20:26
  mega constellations like Spacex's Starlink, right?
• 1:20:29
  But the catch is according to this two. 1022 report or 2023
• 1:20:33
  report only 4852 are active. So out of that 808,200 half of
• 1:20:40
  them are fucking dead. Yeah.
• 1:20:42
  So let's fucking get them out of the sky, man.
• 1:20:45
  I think that's easier said than done.
• 1:20:47
  You got a rope? If you're talking to my dad in
• 1:20:54
  19. 85 If you had some duct tape and some WD40, we could make
• 1:20:58
  this happen. There's 3400 satellites in
• 1:21:01
  space. That are not active.
• 1:21:04
  I think they just need to start falling from the sky.
• 1:21:06
  You know I think I'm going to leave them down.
• 1:21:08
  I'm going to leave you with this parting thought, OK, Parting
• 1:21:11
  thought. Because this is going to make.
• 1:21:13
  Every day of your. Life and our listeners lives
• 1:21:16
  easier from this day forward because after I read this, I
• 1:21:20
  kind of breathed easier because it all made sense.
• 1:21:24
  Psychologist Stanley Milgram found that 80% of the population
• 1:21:29
  do not have the psychological or moral resources to defy an
• 1:21:33
  authority's order, no matter how illegitimate the order is over
• 1:21:38
  80%. Therefore, only 20% of us have
• 1:21:42
  critical thinking capacity. This explains quite a lot and
• 1:21:48
  his study. Went over 40 years.
• 1:21:50
  Wow, so this is a. Guy who saw people.
• 1:21:53
  In and out as. A clinical psychologist every
• 1:21:57
  day and what he deducted is over 80% of the people that he saw do
• 1:22:01
  not have. They just don't have the
• 1:22:05
  capacity to defy a direct order from an authority figure for any
• 1:22:09
  reason ever. They just can't.
• 1:22:12
  Even if they were told to go chop their Dick off if they
• 1:22:17
  thought that, you know. That's what.
• 1:22:20
  And basically the point of the post this.
• 1:22:24
  Was a friend of mine that posted.
• 1:22:26
  It and he put at the top, he said this explains people's
• 1:22:30
  actions and COVID and droves, right?
• 1:22:31
  Yeah. Yeah, I'm dropping a video I
• 1:22:36
  made because since COVID I snore, then snore before COVID
• 1:22:40
  got COVID twice, then I snore. I'm fucking extremely healthy,
• 1:22:44
  you know what I mean? You just look at me and think,
• 1:22:46
  you know, snore. So we're trying these things
• 1:22:48
  out. So I tried this one thing out.
• 1:22:50
  Next show I'll bring it on and I'll show you what it is.
• 1:22:52
  Fucking didn't work and it's fucking insanely uncomfortable.
• 1:22:54
  I'm like, how does people fucking sleep with this shit?
• 1:22:57
  Right? And so we went to the sleep
• 1:22:59
  study. Of course I didn't, I wasn't
• 1:23:01
  presenting enough problems to actually go to a sleep study
• 1:23:03
  like the movie Dreamscape, you know, where you learn how to get
• 1:23:05
  into people's dreams and be a cyber real serial killer.
• 1:23:08
  I have friends that did that. Oh, that was fucking awesome.
• 1:23:11
  So I had an app. There was an app that tied to my
• 1:23:15
  phone and that was a sleep study.
• 1:23:16
  Like I wouldn't want to CPAP anyway because again, I don't.
• 1:23:20
  I don't need that. I'm not dying 20 times in my
• 1:23:22
  sleep. I just snore.
• 1:23:24
  I had a friend that did that too.
• 1:23:26
  Scared the shit out of me. Nikki will move me and she's
• 1:23:29
  like, she's like. Sometimes I, you know, I saw Ash
• 1:23:31
  in the mornings. Now that I snore, she's like,
• 1:23:32
  well, no. So three nights in a row I
• 1:23:34
  didn't start, which is I took gummies.
• 1:23:36
  So I'm thinking that's why. And last night she said I
• 1:23:43
  didn't, but I gotten up because one of my nostrils was, was
• 1:23:46
  blocked for some reason. So I put that brief strips on
• 1:23:49
  and then I was fine. But so I'm going to document all
• 1:23:53
  this snoring shit that actually doesn't work that people buy.
• 1:23:57
  And I've, and I've, I've researched it now it's basically
• 1:23:59
  when you lay down, the back of your throat just kind of hits
• 1:24:03
  the, you know, the breathing, the air, the breathing tube that
• 1:24:06
  you have, whatever airway, right?
• 1:24:07
  And it's, yeah, I wake myself up like when I'm in my.
• 1:24:10
  Recliner doing that and and it just vibrates so.
• 1:24:15
  You know, they got to come up with something.
• 1:24:16
  They just fix that. You know, I can see if like, you
• 1:24:19
  know, if I was extremely unhealthy and all that kind of
• 1:24:21
  shit and you know, but I just, it blew my mind like snoring.
• 1:24:24
  But really it's just since COVID, man.
• 1:24:26
  That's what COVID gave me. Merry Christmas.
• 1:24:30
  Carrie used to tell me it just depends.
• 1:24:32
  On which way I sleep, and I don't remember which is which,
• 1:24:35
  but I think if I'm on my back I snore and if I'm on my side I
• 1:24:38
  don't. On the back.
• 1:24:39
  Yeah. See my problem now with my neck
• 1:24:40
  I can't. Sleep on my right side anymore
• 1:24:43
  because I can't sleep on my right side.
• 1:24:45
  My shoulders all fucked up there.
• 1:24:47
  And my neck, yeah. So I can just sleep on my back
• 1:24:49
  or my right side? If I sleep on my right side or
• 1:24:52
  my back, I she definitely she, she reached those over and kind
• 1:24:56
  of tells me. I keep telling you if I'm
• 1:24:58
  snoring, just fucking wake me up.
• 1:25:00
  I'm screwed because I'm stuck on my back now because.
• 1:25:02
  They tell you you're not supposed to sleep on your left
• 1:25:04
  side for some reason. It's not good for your organs.
• 1:25:08
  You know you run across that. Shit that says.
• 1:25:11
  To maintain a healthier lifestyle.
• 1:25:13
  That was one of them. Don't sleep on your left side.
• 1:25:15
  Yeah. I just tell her why I just.
• 1:25:17
  I just I'm when. I tell her to wake me up and
• 1:25:19
  tell her wake me up. Let's let's, you know, expend
• 1:25:22
  some energy to get snoring out of the body and then we'll go
• 1:25:25
  back to sleep. That's right.
• 1:25:28
  Wake me up. Eric, follow me.
• 1:25:30
  Yeah, wake me up. All right, boys and girls, this
• 1:25:34
  is Chris and Mike Show. I don't even know what the
• 1:25:36

  I've been pleading with people from Austria because.
