• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, here we go. After show is on What Up?
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: After Show? Army justin here. Thank you so much for
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: listening today. I'm back from vacation. The show is back
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: from vacation, and it was a glorious one. Did you
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: miss me because I missed you. I miss doing this podcast.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: I really do. It's a big part of my life. Obviously,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: the show is a big part of my life. I
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: do it every day, but I always know that when
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: the show ends, I'm gonna jump on the after show
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: and kind of be a little bit more raw, a
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: little bit more open about myself and about things on
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: the show, behind the scenes stuff. Whatever I want to
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: talk about I can talk about. I kind of have
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: that free reign.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: It's not like the Howard Stern Show when he went
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: to serious and he could swear all that he wanted,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: although he didn't make a big deal about it. Obviously
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: he did swear and could play more adult content. But
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: it's not like that. I don't come on here to
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: just be dirty and say, you know, bad words, but
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: you will hear them here and there. It's always funny
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: when Billy swears. But anyway, yeah, man, maybe vacation was
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: so much fun. It was so good. But it's gonna
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: be back. Good to be back at a routine, I
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: was saying to McCabe. He texted me yesterday asking you
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: know how I was if I was ready to come back,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: and I said, dude, I am ready. And that is because, well,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: first of all, I have a fun job. Okay, So
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I don't have a job that I hate going to.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I do love going It sucks getting up early, but
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I just thrive in routine, you know. And I think
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: I think part of that comes from, you know, being
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: in institutions, in programs, drug programs, detoxes, jails, things like
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: that kind of they institutionalize you, right, So I do
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: good with routine every day. I have the same routine
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: during the week and then a different routine on the weekends.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: You know. Like when I got home from vacation, my
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: wife was like, I'm not unpacking. We've just traveled for
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: seven I mean for twelve hours straight. I am not
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: unpacking the luggage I have to unpack. I have to
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: separate all the clean laundry from the dirty laundry, get
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: it ready for the ten loads of laundry that I
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: was going to do on Sunday because we go back
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Saturday night. So yeah, a routine is what I thrive on.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: So I was looking forward to coming back and doing
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: the show. So it was good to be back. A
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: little rusty on some things. You know, you take time off,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: you know that a long of it a weekend, you
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: kind of break the rhythm that you're in. Now. You
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: wouldn't notice if you listen to the show. I don't
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: think you would notice. But just little things, you know,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: like I said the phone number wrong, you know, I
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: said six one seven instead of eight seven to seven.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: These are minor things, right, the live radio show, but
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: I noticed them. It'll take a day or two to
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: get back into the rhythm. But the vacation in itself amazing, amazing, amazing.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: It's the second time in Aruba. My wife and I
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: went two years ago. For the first time. We fell
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: in love, like so many people do. Right, it's such
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: a cliche thing and I know that, right. It's a
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: everyone goes to a Ruba, they go to Florida, they
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: go to a Ruba, and once they go, they keep
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: going back. Now, why, well, if you go, you can
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: understand why. Yes, it's very touristy, but the island is
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: safe and it's beautiful. Obviously, the beaches are beautiful, top
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: in the world. It's eighty five degrees plus every single
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: day with very little rain. But it's safe and you
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: can rent a car and you can drive around the
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: whole island, which is not that big. I think it's
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: like twenty miles the length of it. So that's what
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: we did the first time. We did it again this time,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: although we stayed in an airbnb this time. The first
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: time we went, we stayed at the Marriott Stalaris Casino,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: which is if you've never been to Aruba. They have
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: one side is the Short Hotels and that's on Eagle Beach,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: and then they have the Tall Hotels, which is a
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: strip of hotels on Palm Beach, and that's also right
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: next to like a downtown area that's really cool, has
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: kind of a Miami beach vibe. I guess you could
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: say it's popping at night. The hotels are all right there.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Everyone's out going out to dinner and doing a bunch
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: of shopping. They have a bunch of cool shops. So
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: we've only stayed at the Tall Hotel, but this time
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: we got a airbnb, which was right in the Nord
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: neighborhood near Palm Beach, near the Tall hotels, only about
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: like two or three minutes from there, and it's kind
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: of an upscale neighborhood. And now you have to remember Aruba
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: is very desert like, you know, it's very dry. There's
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: no grass, it's all like sand and gravel. They do
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: have paved roads, but it's very dry, and so the
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: neighborhood is called Nord. We found an airbnb. It's called
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: zen to Sy Aruba, so you can look it up online. It's,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you know, instead of Ecstasy, it's zen to s and
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: it's beautiful. It's as advertised in the pictures. But the
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: main reason we chose it is because we went with
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: another family, my friend Alan the plumber, his wife Brooke,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: and their daughter Sage. Because Allan and I are good,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: really good friends. Brook and my wife are good friends.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: And then Gemma, my daughter, and Sage, their daughter are
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: good friends. Right, so it made sense. And the airbnb
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: had four bedrooms, all with king beds and all with
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: their own bathroom, which was like amazing, has a small pool,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: and it's very zen like, right, there's there's buddhas everywhere,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: there's a Buddha in the pool. Everything lights up purple
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: at night, all these lighting inside the pool, outside the pool.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: It's just very well done. It's a you know, a
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: highly rated airbnb. We were very happy. So that's where
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: we stayed. So the flight there, no problems, got to TSA,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: go through TSA at five in the morning, got on
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: the plane, no issues, flew there. I read The Housemaid
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: because at least it gave me a book, but I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: forgot it, so I bought The Housemaid. I read that
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: on the way and then I watched the movie on
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the way back, which was pretty cool. I can talk
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: more about that another time. But we get there. We
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: got our car, they got their own car. We get
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: to the airbnb, you know, checked in, there was a
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: code and it was beautiful. It was all set. So
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: the first night we got there, we didn't do much.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: We pretty much stayed in. We had traveled all day.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: We didn't really do much. But day two is when
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the fun started. Okay, now, my wife pretty much planned
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: along with you know, Allen and Brooke, the rite, the itinerary.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: So day two we went to a place called De
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Palm Island, which is really cool. You take like a
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: dinghy boat out to a Legit Island and they have
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: flamingos on there. They have a water park and they
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: have all kinds of ocean things you can do, like
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: snorkeling and like an obstacle course in the ocean, which
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: my son absolutely loved. And it was all inclusive too,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: so all the food you could eat at a restaurant
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: as well, which is which was included. So we spent
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: the whole day there. Obviously, my daughter in saged in
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the little water park there, but they had water slides.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I did some of that. My son did the obstacle
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: course a bunch of times. Alan was snorkeling in the water.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not a big snorkeler, you know. I put my
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: head in the water. I see all the fish kind
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: of freaks me out. Like I'll swim in the ocean,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: but when I see the fish, it's like I know
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: they're there, but I don't want to see them swimming
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: around me. It kind of freaks me out. I don't know,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I'm kind of a bitch with that shit. But he
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: did that, and then we just spent the whole day
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: there and it was cool, and then we took the
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: boat back to Land and that was day two. Now
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: we ate we went grocery shopping there because there are
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: a bunch of grocery stores there which are all Chinese.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: For some reason, Chinese families, I should say, own them.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: I actually did a deep dive on that. It's because
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: a bunch of people from China or Japan, I think
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: China immigrated there. Something happened over there many years ago.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: They immigrated to Aruba and they saw a need for supermarkets,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: so they all opened a bunch of supermarkets and they've
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: all been passed down over the years, generation to generations,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: so they're all family owned, all super nice people, as
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: is any everybody in Aruba. I mean, the people that
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: are from Aruba are so so nice. And what's really
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: cool is the difference in currency. You can use American
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: dollars or you can use their money, which is florin.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: I think florinine a florin. I forget what it is.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: But our money is double what their money is. I'm sorry,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: their money is double what our money is. So one
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: dollar an American is almost two dollars in their currency,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: so when you tip them, say ten dollars, it's like
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: twenty dollars. To them, so they are super super happy.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: So that's cool. So that was day two. Day three,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: I found a gym to work out, and I was
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: looking looking online at gyms to get up and go to,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: and I found a CrossFit gym that was outside. Now,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: this was in that downtown area that I talked about
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: on Palm Beach and it's kind of there's a restaurant
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: called Gianni's that's right there that we also went to,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: but behind that there's the parking lot. But then there's
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: a gym that's outside. It's basically like a trailer and
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: if you go into it, it has a turf, bars, weights,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: all that stuff. It's a CrossFit gym, but they have
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: high rocks classes. So I signed up. I got up
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: early and I went to work out at like six
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: in the morning. It was so cool to work out outside.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: It was warm and it was a good workout. So
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: shout out to that place. It's called Muscles and Lungs
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: and they have classes all day every day. They have
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: an open gym as well, and you can work out
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: outside in a ruba, which is really really cool. The
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: next day we had to take a break from being
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: out in the suns well we were still in the sun,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: but we didn't do a beach day. We went to
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: the zoo. They have a really cool zoo in a
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: rub but I posted all this on my Instagram where
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: you could feed the monkeys. You could feed the donkeys.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: They had ostriches, pigs and all kinds of animals, so
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: that was cool. And then we went to where did
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: we go after that? We went out to eat and
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: then we went back to the to the house because
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: the kids were burnt from the sun. I mean, we
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: applied sunscreen, but it's really hard when they're playing all day.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: You know, you cover them up with the sunscreen, but
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: you know, serampots of their body like my son's forehead.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: And then Sage was very pale, got a bad sun burnt,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: so we had her cover it up. So we tried
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: to limit the time in the sun. So we didn't
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: do much that night. So then the next day, my
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: friend Alan wanted to go to the natural Pool which
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: is in their National park, which you need to either
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: do a tour or have like a UTV or whatever.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: He had a jeep to get to. It's very bumpy.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: We did it the first time we went to Aruba,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: so we couldn't do it with Gemma, right, my daughter's
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: almost four years old. She we're not going to take
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: her out into the national park. It's kind of risky.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: So he went there and I rented a UTV, a
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: four seater UTV, which was cool because I kind of
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: surprised my son. I didn't tell him because we kept
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: seeing them driving around Aruba because you can drive her
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: on the street. So ATVs and bikes and all this
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: scooters all driving in the road, and he's like, oh Dad,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: can we do that? Oh my god? And so I
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: ordered it and it came. Now I want to do
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: a special shout out here because I found a place online.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: I called it. I asked if they had had it
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: to rent. They said they did, they would drop it
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: off free of charge. So the guy comes with his
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: wife and young baby. They have a company there, it's
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: called road Runner ATV where they rent ATVs and UTVs
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: for either four hours or eight hours. It's called road
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Runner atv okay. So he comes. I have to sign
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: all this paperwork, my license everything. Now he charged me.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: I think it was four hundred and fifty dollars for
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: four hours, right, which is a normal price. I guess.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: And then he also held five hundred dollars as a deposit,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: but did not run that through my credit card and
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: explained to me he said, you know, I learned the
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: hard way. If I run that, it can take like
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: thirty days plus to get it back. So I'm just
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: gonna kind of hold it here just in case anything
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: does happen. And that makes me a little bit nervous,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: right because I'm like, I'm gonna use this thing, We're
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: gonna bring it back, and you don't know, you don't
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: know the country. What if he's like, oh, well, this
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: was not here, this issue, So I'm gonna chodge you
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: five hundred or three hundred bucks. But I just hope
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: for the best. We got it, and we drove all
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: around to Aruba. We went to downtown, we went a
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: little bit of shopping. It was really really cool. My
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: kids loved it. So after we did that, well they
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: have I'm sorry I should mention they do have the lighthouse.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: We went to the California Lighthouse and Aruba you can
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: go up into My son and I did that. Then
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: they have this like little chapel that's open to the public.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: It's a tiny, tiny church. We went to that as well.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: So after our time was up, we went back to
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: the house. I left the UTV for them. They said
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: they would pick it up. We ended up going out
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: to dinner and all that. So I was saying at
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: dinner to my friends and my wife, I'm like, I'm
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: just I hope they don't do anything. Like the guy
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: seem like a really nice guy. I don't think he would.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: And mind you, we didn't take it off road, you know,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: we drove it on the streets, so this nothing happened,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: you know, but I still had the thought in my head.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: So the next morning, okay, we're on our way to
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Baby Beach and I get a phone call and it's
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: an Ruba number, and I'm like shit. So I answered
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: the phone and the guy says, Hey, this is so
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: and so from Roadrunner ATV. And my heart dropped. I'm like,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: here we go. What's the problem. And he goes, I
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: just want to let you know that, you know, I
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: charged you four fifty for the UTV. I'm like yeah,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: he goes, I overcharged you. It was my mistake. I'm sorry.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: I overcharged you one hundred dollars. He goes, I actually
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: live right now where you're staying literally one straight over.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: He's like, I'll swing it by right now and just
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: give you the cash. I'm really sorry about that. And
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, on my baby beach. Now,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I'll be back in a couple hours. I'll call you
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: when I get back. I hang up the phone and
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: I'm like, imagine that here. I was worried this guy
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: was gonna scam me. I would have had no idea
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: that he overcharged me. I paid the money and kept
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: it moving. So I get back to the house, I
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: call him. He says, I'll be right over. He pulls up.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: I go outside and he looks at me and he goes,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: you know what, this is good karma, And I said,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: you know what, this is good business because let me
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: tell you, I would have had no idea and now
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: you're handing me one hundred dollars back, which basically I
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: gained right. I had no idea you overcharged me, and
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: now thanks to this, every time I come back to Aruba,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna call Roadrunner and he goes, oh, thank you,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: my friend. I pre thank you. Thank I go not
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: only that I ain't gonna tell everyone I know that
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: goes to Aruba and they want to rent an ATV
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: to go to road Runner ATV. You should have saw
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: his face. And I took the money back, and I'm like,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: this is good business, and you're right, it is good calm,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: it really is. I just really really liked that. So
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: then we did Baby Beach the next day, which was great,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: and then we got some pictures. Now I'll get to
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: that in a minute, but let me rewind here because
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I left out, oh my god, the most important part.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: So I had been thinking about getting my wife a ring. Okay,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: she had an engagement ring that I had gotten for
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: her when I proposed. When I proposed in twenty and twelve.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Now in twenty twelve, I was interning orright, maybe I
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: had just gotten hired at minimum wage at the radio station.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: I was working at Friendlies flipping burgers. I had no money, okay,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: so I saved up as much as I could, and
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: I believe it was I had saved two thousand dollars.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: So I went to like Kay's Jewelers and I was
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: looking at rings. Now I had no idea how much
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: rings cost, but I wanted her to have what's called
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: a princess cut ring or it's just one kind of
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: big diamond. But when they showed me the rings and
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: the prices, I couldn't afford it, you know what I mean.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: And I said to the guy, listen, honestly, I only
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: got like a couple one thousand dollars. And he goes, well,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: your best option, he said, is when they split the
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: rocks up. It's cheaper the diamonds. If you get a
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: whole one, it's gonna be more expensive. But if they
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: break it up into the little ones, he goes, look
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: at this one right here, and it looked like a
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: one big rock, but if you look closely, it's just
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: a bunch of little ones there. And it was like
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: eighteen hundred dollars. And it was kind of an illusion
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: because it does look like from Afar it's just one
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: big rock, but it's really not. But I got it
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: for her, and you know what, she loved it, and
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: she wore that, you know, up until you know, a
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: year ago or whatever when she lost the ring, if
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: she lost it or she broke it and didn't know.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: So one day she looked down and all the diamonds
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: were gone in the ring. So she's been ringless for
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: like the last year, and she's hinted to me, like,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm walking around without a ring. I have
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: no ring. I don't know she has like a little
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: band on. So I had been thinking about getting a ring.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: And then we had the conversation on the air about
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: the Lab diamonds versus real diamonds. And let me tell you,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: it was you guys. It was our listeners, our talkbackers,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: callers that convinced me that Lab is okay. Because in
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: my mind, I'm like, is that the cheap way out?
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Is that kind of you know, sleazy to get my wife?
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: The woman? I love a Lab diamond But once I
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: looked further into it and I heard what everyone had
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: to say, I'm like, oh my god, it's not even
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: a big deal. Like the Lab diamonds are beautiful. So
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: I did a little research. That's a bunch of jewelry
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: stores and a Ruba and I found this one that
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: I really really liked. Had a lot of good reviews,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: like no bad reviews, and a lot of reviews from
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Americans that had gone there and gotten engagement rings or
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: in my case, upgraded the ring. So I was able
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: to surprise her. I asked my friends Alan and Brooke
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: if I could take her with me to a grocery store.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: So we went to the grocery store, but before we
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: went there, we went downtown and she's like, where are
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: we going? And I'm like, I just want to check
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: out this one store, just I just I saw something, like,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: let me check it out. She said, okay. So we park.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: We're walking kind of through all the stores and she's like,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: what's the story you're looking for? I understand. I'm looking
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: around because I had never been there, but I knew
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: the name. So we're walking through all the shops in
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: a Aruba and I'm looking and finally she's like, where
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: are we going? And I'm like, I think it's right
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: over here. So we finally get to the store and
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I stop in front of it and I look up
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, here it is. And you should have
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: saw her face, man, her whole face drop, like, oh
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: my god. And so I opened the door for her
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: and she walked in. The woman said hello, and I said,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: piket and she goes, pick any ring. I go pick
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: the one that sticks out to you most. Do not
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: worry about the price, just pick it. So she did
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: a little bit of you know, looking around, trying on
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: and she settled on this one ring that was a
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: lab diamond and it's just under three carrots, which you know,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say how much I paid for it.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: It was several thousand dollars, but if it was a
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: real diamond, it would have cost way way more, probably,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know, twelve to fifteen thousand. So it was
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: less than that, you know, much less than that. But
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: she loves it, and that's all that matters. So she
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: got the ring. They let us take it, but we
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: brought it the next day to get it sized, and
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: then picked it up that night before dinner. And she
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: absolutely loves it. You know, I love my wife so much, man,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I really do. She is my queen and she deserves
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: it all, and so I'm so happy that I was
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: able to do that for her in Aruba, which is
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: has become our favorite place, you know. And what's really
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: cool too, is the wedding band that she was wearing.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: She wanted to keep both, but they needed to match,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: and none of the rings, especially the one that she wanted,
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: matched the wedding band, so she moved the wedding band
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: to the other finger, and then the woman says to us.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: We tell her the whole story about you know why
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: I was getting it for her and whatever. She goes
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: well not. You know what you can do now is
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: every time you come to Aruba, you can add a
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: band and buy a new band. And I was like, huh,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: that's a good salesperson. But Dan, that's a good idea.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: And my wife loves it too. So there's a good
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: friend of ours. Her name is Trish. Trish Rockett. You
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: know Mike Rockett. We talk about Salem, dear friend of
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Billy's and mine, and Trisha's his wife and they've been
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: together a long time. I love their story so much.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: They've been together since they were teenagers. They're still married.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Shout out to Mike and Trish. Mikes hit a stroke,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: so he's recovering from that, but he's doing well. I
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: talked to him on vacation. But we went to Pete
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Town with them last year and we had a great time.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: We spent a lot of time Jen and I with
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Mike and Trish and it was kind of really cool
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: to like be around them who had been and gone
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: through everything that we're going through now. Right. They have
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: raised their children, great kids, Their kids like in their
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: twenties now one's getting married. So they kind of were
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: able to give a lot of advice and a lot
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: of experience stuffs. We just really connected with them. But
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: one thing Jen always says is because they must have
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: done that. I know, I don't know where Mike got
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: the rings, but she has her engagement ring and then
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: she has all the bands around it, you know, and
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: I think she or Mike had told us that, you know,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: once every year they were married, every couple of years,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: he would get her a new band for the ring,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: and so that kind of always stuck out to Gen.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: So when the woman said that, her face like lit up.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: So that's what I'll do. So that that was cool.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: So that happened final day Baby beach and then that night,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Friday night, we got professional pictures done on the beach,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: which was really really cool. We did our family, we
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: did my friend's family, we did some together shots. So
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: we picked our favorite sent them back to the photographer.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: So we're waiting on those so I'll post those on
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: my Instagram. They came out really really nice, and we
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: got some good shots of the ring as well. So
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: all in all, ten out of ten vacation. I think
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: we will be going back to Aruba. It's it's just
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: a great place, man. And I know it's like it's
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: so cliche to go to Aruba. I mean people are
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: on both sides of it. Some people are like, you know,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I go back every single year, I mean going for
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: thirty years. I mean Billy's best friend Dukie has a
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: time share there. He goes twice a year. Then there's
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: other people who are kind of like, ugh, Aruba. I
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: think those are the people that you know, have gone
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: to many different places and so you know that's the
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: place that they want to go. Look at this guy, Oh,

• 27:30
  Speaker 2: great manager. He's kind of like a carbon copy of Dylan,
• 27:34

• 27:36
  Speaker 2: moments with Dylan, the PD of Kiss one eight here

  Speaker 1: I know that's happened.
• 27:49

• 28:24
  Speaker 2: and me just doing it. And I'm like, I had

  Speaker 1: why where are you going now?
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Over saying I have to go to Miami, which is
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: the craziest thing to say in that context, like in
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: a negative way. There's every year there's this dance music
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: like week in Miami.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: Music Week talking about the festival Ultra.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Is this that weekend too?

  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, So it's like the biggest dance weekend for
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: week of the year. I run the dance station at
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: iHeart too. For some reason, I don't I don't know
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: much about dance, but so I'm going down for some
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: meetings and I'm on a panel this year, actually really
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: on a radio panel.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: Who was on it?
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: Other radio people probably? And think who runs our real station?
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: I saw Gandhi was on a panel. Is that for
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: the same event?
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: No, that's probably something different.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, okay, So are you with all like dance?
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: People like dance?
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: They're all dance programmers. And I said to the guys
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: who organize it, I'm like, I don't I'm not a
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: dance programmer. Like if you want like a pop like
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: aspect or you know, like talent aspects, I'm all there,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: and they're like, yeah, let's do it. So it'll be interesting.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: That's actually gonna be it'll be interesting.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: And when's that?
• 31:49

  Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah, so then you're back after that,
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: and then I'm okay, uh the Gaga mash up, we're

  Speaker 1: This is this is okay?
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: Life or death?
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: I know, well, yeah, it could be the last night
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: of your life. As Gaga says, well it's it went quick.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: This contest, well, it's kind of crazy.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: I think the first two they were easier than this one.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: This one. So for context, I'm a major Lady Gaga
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: fan obviously, you know, and so our boss. I actually
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: wasn't really like in making this contest.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: It was weird.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: So Dylan was playing all the mashups to me, and
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: I got the first two like pretty quickly, and I
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: was like, this is gonna go so fast. He played
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: the third one and it took me like six times
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: hearing it, And like, I listened to these songs every day.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: I even have the you know, the chance to replay them.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: This one is so hard, but when the person gets it,
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: when it clicks in your mind, you're gonna be like,
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: oh that's what that is.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: She is one one song off Yeah this morning okay, Yeah, yes,
• 33:06
