0:23
It is time to leave your worries outside and join us inside this year Treehouse.
0:30
I'm Daniel Malley along with Trade Trenholm and Raj Sharma, fresh off of
0:35
our tree House Plus number five episode, which if you would like to listen
0:40

0:43

0:51
com slash Treehouse on Air. Sign up for that and you will get access
0:57
to the Treehouse Plus episodes one per week and you can find out I'm curious
1:04
about what we spoke about in that Freehouse Plus episode. Trey is holding it
1:10
up right now for us cameras to see. Our buddy Hayden from Spoke Customs
1:15
send us a care package of items that he would like to sell for us.
1:19
One of the main items included in our goodie bags were blankets with our
1:25
faces on them, which is very exciting for Trey and for Raj and for
1:30
me because now knowing that that's an option if I wanted to, I too
1:36
could have a photo blanket full of tray faces or rag faces, or better
1:42
yet, maybe I can do I can do a combo sort of like getting
1:48
combo fiheatas get chicken and beef. Maybe a combo blanket with Trey and raj
1:55
Y all over that nice, big soft blanket. So that way, whenever
1:59
I feel like it, I can sit on your faces. Yeah, the
2:01
Devil threesome, but it's so soft and cuddly. What we should do is,
2:10
when you're back in town next month, we should do the old school
2:15
Olin Mills portrait of the three of us. Yeah, like holiday sweaters,
2:21
and then we have those blankets made. I have I have a idea.
2:24
I'd like to tack on to your idea. Okay, since we have not
2:30
announced it officially yet, but I will tease it slightly here. We will
2:36
be doing a Christmas a Treehouse podcast Christmas road show party in December. It's
2:44
a lot of words. It's a it's a miracle, I can say the
2:46
month. We'll be having a Christmas themed Treehouse road show coming up in December.
2:53
And when we do that, what we can do is take these blankets
2:55
and create a step and repeat for when people show up to the event,
3:01
kind of like the Oscars or the Grammys. You stand in front of the
3:05
logo wall that's called the step and repeat because you step take some photos in
3:08
front of the wall with the stuff behind you, and then you repeat it
3:10
step repeat, step repeat in front of all the different logos that are lined
3:14
up on the red carpet. We do the same thing. We do a
3:16
treehouse Christmas red carpet mm hmm with our face blankets that people could take photos
3:23
in front of. Yes, and maybe we get one of Daisy made and
3:27
that's the one we charge money for it because that'll be the money maker.
3:30
Yeah, yeah, I think that's a great idea. And then if if
3:35
by if, and if you want to buy and if you want to buy
3:38
the blanket of say myself or or tray uh, we can the highest the
3:46
highest bidder, and then we auctioned it off. Yeah yeah, that already
3:51
that way you know who really wants you. Yeah, and they are very
3:55
soft blankets. They are their high quality items as because Neddie would say,
4:02
yeah, it's really it's a really nice blanket. I will say that,
4:06
and Jayden did say that for the next event we do, he'd be happy
4:10
to throw in maybe like some some cups and things that we can also give
4:14
away or sell. So I think we're gonna hit him up for those maybe
4:16
the blankets as well for that next Christmas road show. So keep your keep
4:19
it tuned into the Treehouse podcast for that road show announcement which will be happening
4:26
soon soon. Yeah. I now have an idea for another blanket that I
4:30
think we could have Hayden work up for us, and that would be one
4:33
of these super soft blankets with either the Ranger's logo all over it or perhaps
4:42
maybe adultut Garcia's face all over it. I'm sure the MLB and adults would
4:46
sue us for it, but they got to catch us first, you know
4:49
what I mean? Yeah, or maybe a nice Nathan Yuvaldi face all over
4:56
these blankets, not the Spores guy, not the guy that actually closed out
5:00
them, struck out and the final out for the Rangers to win the World
5:03
Series. Because I can't quite figure out his facial hair. It looks somewhere
5:06
between a Civil War era and hipster and I can't quite figure it out.
5:12
Whatever it is, the man gets to go down in as a Rangers legend
5:16
for being the guy that got the last out for the Rangers to win their
5:20
first ever World Series. And I'm this many days later, I'm still in
5:29
my sports fields about it. Oh yeah, got up, Raj here a
5:33
Yankees fan. No, no, no, I'd come on. It was.
5:36
I watched the whole thing. It was. It was wonderful. I
5:41
was very, very excited for the Texas Rangers. I'm very I mean thirty
5:44
five years franchise with sixty three years franchise, sixty three years because they started
5:48
out as the Washington Senators and then like many people who come to Texas,
5:53
they got out of Washington and then came and completely rebranded change their name to
5:58
the Texas Rangers. That was nineteen seventy two. Seventy two. Yeah,
6:01
yeah, so yeah, no, that's amazing, and congratulations to them.
6:05
That was a fantastic It was a great series. It was fun to watch.
6:10
It was a very entertaining, high scoring for the most part. But
6:15
yeah, no, I'm I'm very, very very happy for Unlike I was.
6:18
I Actually, you have the big meme that went out with the championship
6:26
trophy and all the players around it, and I would have that blanket made
6:29
by by Hayden. I would have that. And you got to make sure
6:31
you have the the new phrase in the corner went and took it, gotcha?
6:38
Okay, how badass? Was that that felt good when when they first
6:41
dropped that on on social media, It's like, oh that is good.
6:44
Yeah, I just refused to do anything with Creed, so you know what,
6:48
for one night, I just I let my Creed flag five flyve Creed
6:51
flag fly. Yeah there we goment Yeah No, I just yeah. I
6:57
can't. I can't believe that that was the that was the song though,
7:00
though that was the inspiration to get you there, Creed. I'd like to
7:03
think that they that it started out more as like a tongue in cheek thing,
7:08
okay good, and it was. I think it was meant to be
7:11
more like like a funny clubhouse thing and be like, hey, what if
7:14
this is there's one of our themes though, isn't this stupid? And next
7:16
thing, you know, becomes a thing that and then the range is like,
7:19
oh god, now we have to entertain Scott's staff for a night.
7:21
Well no, And then Creed got back together and I was like it was
7:26
launched a tour. Yes, and I'm and my fear is that the Texas
7:30
Rangers are responsible for the regrouping of Creed because keep in mind, Scott Stapped
7:36
three years ago was riding around the Florida neighborhood on a ten speed. Uh
7:41
and now he's on tour like that's that's like you know, the either the
7:45
power of the Rangers or the magic that is or was Creed. I don't.
7:49
I think I think it shows the power of sports Trey as a lifelong
7:55
DFW resident, Raj, you are too. But since you're Yankees fan out,
8:00
you're you're you're a spoiled baseball fan. When when you became a Yankees
8:03
fan, they already had, you know, a litany of success behind that,
8:07
So you don't understand the pain that comes along with being a Rangers fan.
8:13
I truly, I truly don't, because every time I was while you
8:16
guys were suffering, I was just enjoying dollar hot talks. Uh, well,
8:20
you guys were, but I went. I went to many a game
8:24
since I was a kid. Uh. I do enjoy the Texas Rangers.
8:28
But you know, I am definitely a Yankees fan, and you're right,
8:33
I wouldn't. I don't have enough money for all the blankets that that they
8:35
would require for their championships. So I do know how you can get your
8:39
hands up, Derek Jeter blanket. I'm not I'm not that dedicated to fan
8:48
say that now, man, he's got those dreamy eyes. But you know
8:54
what it's you talk about. I really thought about it because I I got
8:58
all the field when when they won, and I was like, I don't
9:03
know that I have really cared for a team a season anything since that twenty
9:07
eleven season and just having my heart broken and I'm wavy trade that that twenty
9:13
So I think the I think most Rangers fans this is the way they feel.
9:18
Twenty ten. We get to the World Series, beat the Giant or
9:22
I'm sorry, lose to the Giants. We were just happy to be there.
9:26
We were so giddy to even like to even have to have won the
9:30
Pennant. It was amazing. But also the Giants that at the end of
9:35
it, they were a better they were the better team. Like I didn't,
9:37
I didn't leave that twenty ten World Series, you know, thinking oh
9:41
my god, it just slipped away. It's like we you know, they
9:45
were just a better team. Yeah, all right, that twenty eleven that's
9:50
a whole different animal. The twenty eleven World Series was sort of like in
9:56
the Revenant. Have you guys seen The Revenant with Leonardo DiCaprio not I have
10:01
not okay, Well, at some point today I want you to pull up
10:03
the clip on YouTube of Leonardo DiCaprio in the Revenant when he gets attacked by
10:09
the bear. Use your imagination, but it's very, very savage. The
10:13
Rangers were the Leonardo DiCaprio and the Cardinals were the bear, and it was
10:18
very much like that, or maybe more accurately, the Cardinals were the bear,
10:22
and Leonardo DiCaprio was all of us Rangers fans in one body, just
10:28
getting tossed around in the woods, chewed up like a rag doll. And
10:33
you're right, Trey, go ahead. Couldn't the bear have been Nelly Cruz?
10:37
Just the bear attacking Leo was intentional. Nelson Cruz did not intentionally flub
10:46
that final out. It was just a Nelson Cruz thing, but it wasn't
10:50
intentional. But I'm with you. That twenty eleven thing left It left me
10:54
broken. Like you said, Trey, I was so broken after that game
10:58
that I didn't watch much base ball after that because I was so heavily invested
11:01
in those teams, partly because I covered the Rangers for the fan during that
11:07
time. In that nine to ten season when they went to the World Series,
11:13
so I was intimately knowledgeable of everything Rangers at that time. So I
11:18
was. I mean, I can't even say knee deep. I was in
11:22
way over my head as far as caring about that team, especially when they
11:24
went into the twenty eleven one out away and they still lose that series.
11:30
That's why on last Wednesday night, when the Rangers are within one out again,
11:35
even though the bases were empty and had a five run lead, I
11:37
still didn't feel good about it. I think Trade text me is like I
11:41
still have I think it was the seventh day. He's like, I still
11:45
have my doubts. I'm like, we were you yes, Roger, that
11:48
is how messed up we were. That was Severe Sports PTSD after the twenty
11:54
eleven World Series. As Rangers fans, Yeah, I was. I mean,
11:58
when they have the eleven to one lead I think it was, and
12:01
they start giving up runs in is it the eighth or ninth inning, I'm
12:07
literally I'm sitting there, going this is this is how it starts, you
12:11
know, and I'm just shell shocked at I'm just waiting for the uh you
12:16
know. So, was I the only one of the three of us that
12:20
had complete faith in the Yes. Yes, and that's because that's because you
12:26
were not a Rangers fan. If you were a Rangers fan, you would
12:28
have been like everybody else and go like, I don't believe it. No,
12:31
I think in that moment I was a better fan than you. Guys.
12:35
That doesn't make you a better fan, that just makes you a Yankees
12:37
fan. No. I had complete and total faith in that team. I
12:41
believe that then that that is called recency bias. And clearly than you,
12:48
uh, no I I I will stand. I will stand on this.
12:50
I believe that the three of us, this Yankees fan was the most dedicated
12:56
Rangers fan. It's you. It's easy you can say that because you can
13:01
go, yeah, they've got it. You're not emotionally invested. It's not
13:03
gonna tear it your gut. You. I high fived the guy next to
13:07
me when when it happened. It was, it was, it was.
13:09
It was a nice moment. It was a nice moment. I shared.
13:16
I shared. I hugged strangers, raj I hugged strangers. I bruised my
13:20
hand from slapping a rafter at a bar after the game. I sang creed
13:28
for like five minutes. But I've seen you drinking. You'll do that without
13:31
a game like the game helps I'll tell you what that game as I had
13:45
already when they won, I looked, and so they were re airing the
13:48
game. Uh like it starting at twelve thirty. All right, man,
13:54
I'm gonna rec I wanted to watch that again, Yes, yeah, and
13:58
it was for me. It was watching the highlights again the next morning,
14:01
and I purposely tried to find the longest highlight package I could so I could
14:07
see as much of it again as I could, because even to this day,
14:11
like right now, my favorite show right now is The Rangers World Series
14:16
Game five, and I just keep basically rewatching the highlights from it because it
14:18
feels so damn good. And I had a buddy of mine that named Nathan,
14:24
or he still named Nathan, but I used to work with him at
14:26
the fan and he posted He's like, hey guys, hey Rangers fans,
14:31
does this World Series win take away the pain from twenty eleven. I'm like,
14:37
no, that is a scar that will forever be there, but I
14:41
can be proud of the scar now that they've actually won one. Well,
14:48
I wanted to watch the extended highlight package too, which is why I recorded
14:50
the game. But of course then effing Bobby Knight dies, and so instead
14:56
of watching the damn game, I have to spend the first hour of Bobby
14:58
Knight memore him, and then the highlight then the game. It cuts off
15:03
at the beginning of the seventh inning. Oh man, did you did you
15:09
throw a chair? You should have dog custs Bobby Knight. Like players throw
15:16
a chair, dog cuss some people, maybe a choke a stranger. Yeah,
15:24
hopefully no racial slurs. Uh, let's just keep away from that,
15:28
that Bobby Knight legacy. Like, I literally the first thing I saw what
15:33
I saw that Bob Bobby Night, I was like, oh my god,
15:35
hope there's no chairs to thel because he's well, it doesn't matter because I
15:39
mean, even if he goes to heaven, he's he'll probably be choking angels.
15:45
Yeah. No, we're not boxing out even box out the Devil.
15:52
Yeah that yeah, that's that's so unfortunate. I I enjoyed the moment.
15:56
I was very I was at the I was at the Twin Peaks, uh,
16:00
and there were some very excited fans and and a lot of high fives,
16:03
and I the game was done, and I I went to I went
16:06
to Taco Bell, uh like, and as I'm in the Taco Bell drive
16:11
through getting my food, uh, Tray sends me a test I said.
16:15
I cried. And I was like, oh that, well, good for
16:18
you. But I'm glad you had that moment. Well I'm sure Raj you
16:22
cried too, but it was for the probably a different reason now I I
16:26
was. I was joyous in the moment. There wasn't a lot of There
16:30
wasn't a lot of like like a buddy of mine is like you guys,
16:33
like he had at the beginning of the season, he held up a sign
16:37
with his daughter and said the Rangers will win a World Series before I die.
16:41
Uh. And this was his daughter was There was not a claim I
16:44
would have made. Yeah, And his daughter was with his daughter was with
16:49
us at the watch of the game, and uh. He he had that
16:53
like he's like, you're not going to school, We're going to the parade
16:56
where and he's a season ticket holder of the whole nine yards and awesome he
16:59
had he had his moment and I was like, I'm really hungry. Good
17:03
for you guys, And that's and that's how you know, that you you
17:07
didn't have the same level of emotional investment, and then there's nothing wrong,
17:10
right, You're not a you're not a diehard Rangers fan like we all are,
17:14
and that we had to go through all this pain before they finally won
17:17
a World Series. The I thought of this the other day, and I
17:22
think it's true. At least it feels true in my heart. And that
17:26
is Thursday, November two, twenty twenty three, the day after the Rangers
17:32
won the World Series, is the first easy day of being a Rangers fan.
17:40
Okay, and every day until every day until opening day next season will
17:48
be easy Rangers fans days because you finally got a World Series and and it
17:56
just it just it just feels so it feels so good, so it can
17:59
jump on now. No, yeah, you just said it's the easiest time
18:03
to be a fan, so I'm a fan. No No, that's not
18:04
what No, no, no, I'm a fan now. No no no,
18:07
no, no no no. I don't like it's easy to be a
18:08
fan. Know what I mean is every day before November second, twenty twenty
18:14
three, being a Rangers fan was hard. Yeah, it was hard,
18:18
hard, hard, yeah, But but now I can be a fan now
18:21
because it's the it's yeah, there we go. Okay, I'm a I'm
18:23
a fan. There it is Trey. Is he not understanding it? Or
18:26
am I just not explaining it right? I mean what what? No?
18:30
I guess I don't want him. I don't want him, know, Raj,
18:34
I'm going out today. I'm going to academy. I'm getting all the
18:38
Rangers gear. So he's it's he's a Yankees fan. He's a Steinbrenner,
18:42
you know. So he's just gonna money whip his happiness. And that is
18:51
that is hammer, hitt and nail. Yeah, that is perfect. This
18:53
is the best time to be a Rangers. Look, you got a new
18:56
fan here. He is Yay. That Garcia guy and other people you whore,
19:06
I've been called worse. You keep it up and you will by Trey,
19:22
you're listening to the tree House. Visit us online that Treehouse on air
19:26
dot com fifty two. That is the phone number to reach Rodney Anderson.
19:37
His website Rodney Anderson dot com chock full of great information. I know that
19:41
because I've been to it many times, and also because it's a lot of
19:45
Rodney's brain on that website and his brain is available for you to pick it.
19:48
Which is I'm going to do right now? So, Rodney, I'm
19:51
wondering right now, what are some of the major reasons that people are doing
19:55
cash out refinances? Giving you a call? Yeah, the number one reason
19:57
and most important to get out of debt. Financial experts Dave Ramsey Susie Orman
20:03
will always tell you there is no way that you will get ahead in life
20:07
with credit card debt or other debt. That is, how to control a
20:11
cash out refinance can be a simple solution for so many people to get their
20:15
finances back on the fast track. I'll give an example. We had to
20:18
borrow and move forward one of our past customers. Yes, Sir, rate
20:22
one up on their mortgage, but Dan, they had over one hundred and
20:26
fifty thousand dollars at credit card debt and their average rate was twenty five percent.
20:30
It was incredible when you are sitting there with that kind of debt and
20:33
they were trying to rob Peter to pay Paul every month, live in paycheck
20:37
to three days before paycheck. So number one reason get out of debt.
20:41
Number two home improvements, number three, payoff school loans, number four,
20:45
pay off the irs. Number five to invest in your child's education. So
20:49
those are the major five reasons, and I will throw a six one.
20:52
In their divorce, we're seeing a lot of cash out revised for divorce purposes
20:56
stand part of the equity. Yeah, and all those things that you mentioned
21:00
are extremely important and things that Rodney and his team can help you with.
21:03
But in order for him to do that, you got to give him a
21:04
call nine nine eight five fifty two hundred. Let him walk you through that
21:08
process. Nine seven two nine eight five fifty two hundred. Organ That website

our dear friends at COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration. Eight three three. Cook DFW

is the phone number to call for your free roof inspection eight three three Cook
22:44
DFW or COOKDFW dot com. It really is a nitpicky thing to say,
22:52
but I'm gonna say it anyway. If I could have changed anything about the
22:56
Rangers winning the World Series, it would have been that they would have done
23:00
it like two days before, on October thirtieth, So that way, the
23:07
next night for Halloween. I could go out with a Ranger shirt on and
23:11
goggles on my head. Oh yeah, would have been a World Series Rangers
23:18
Champion or Halloween. That's the only thing. Yeah, but you have to
23:21
be soaked in. You have to be soaked in some sort of booze with
23:25
the with the goggles. I don't think that's problem. Yeah, that'll be
23:27
hard for Dan. Yeah, she would also be dressed similarly, and she
23:33
would also be like shaking the champagne and pouring the beer in my head and
23:37
all that kind of stuff. Yeah, that's it. That's when I when
23:40
I saw there, uh, when they won, there were in the locker
23:42
room. I saw their celebration. I was like, that's the kind of
23:45
party like I want to be. I want to go to a party like
23:48
that where like, hey, you're gonna need protective eye gear. Yeah,
23:52
there ain't no party like like like a clubhouse party. And I don't mean
23:56
that was the strict club I thought that would probably be true, you know,
24:00
Uh, but I mean a ballpark, baseball player clubhouse party. I
24:04
just they set the standard. I mean you don't even really see that that
24:08
much in other sports. Maybe with soccer. I've seen some soccer fans or
24:11
soccer clubs go go go pretty ape in those clouds. I have. I
24:17
haven't seen that, but I I I've seen baseball do this. And and
24:19
now they've got the ski goggles. I don't know what company it is,
24:22
but I think they now give them to every Oh they do. It's probably
24:26
Oakly because they also wear like the sunglasses for Oakley and everything like that.
24:30
But gotcha, it's it's such a thing now that even the reporters covering the
24:33
team, they have to make plans. They have to plan ahead in case
24:37
the team clinches a playoff spot, they win a division, they win a
24:42
series in the playoffs, and then win the World Series. Uh, like
24:48
Nuie Scruggs posted it. He Uh it was it was him, Pat Dony
24:52
and I forget what other Channel five guy and the camera operator all had their
24:57
rain jackets on ready to go. Don't he's got the hood up, Newie.
25:02
I guess since he's bald, he didn't care about, you know,
25:03
getting his hair wet. But even as the reporters covering the team, you
25:07
have to go in prepared in slicks and goggles for yourself, just because you
25:12
have to cover it. Yeah, and but but poor Bruce Bochie, they
25:17
didn't give him any protective ywear. They were strangely mean to him. Yeah,
25:22
but I mean throughout your series, like throughout the Ranger series, like
25:26
I've heard people being constantly mean to him, and I'm like, that's the
25:29
guy. I mean, come on, guys, let's let's let's be honest.
25:32
I mean, he's the one that got you there and he's one before,
25:34
so let's let's trust the hen and everybody is kind of kind of ribbon
25:38
the old guy. And I didn't who was Ribbon Bruce Boccie. Just people
25:41
at the different like the different places that would go watch the games, Like
25:45
what were they saying? Just I mean, he was that he was old
25:48
and he's like when he would walk out, who cares if he's old.
25:52
Most baseball managers are old. The older baseball manager is, the more I
25:55
trust him. Yeah. Actually, like he's not that old for a baseball
25:59
manager. Yeah, but that's what I was saying. But like when he
26:00
would come out of the dugout to like, you know, leave a pitcher
26:03
or whatever, talk to something like just because he's got the he's got a
26:07
little bit of a limp, and some people I don't know who these people
26:10
are, but the people at the bars and restaurants that I went to watch
26:12
the games at kind of come kind of making fun of the old guy.
26:15
I'm like, uh, and he's one of he's he's that old where he's
26:18
like, I don't need my My eyes have seen enough champagne. I don't
26:22
need goggles. They used to pour whiskey down our eyes those yeah, back
26:27
when I played, Back when they played, they were smoking on the bases
26:33
and drink. I mean, it's and that's why and that's why baseball is
26:38
America's favorite sport. Uh, America's pastime. But no, yeah, uh
26:45
they were. They were making fun of the old guy, which I didn't
26:47
Uh, I didn't. I didn't care for. But I do. I
26:49
do like the fact that they are now preparing their their their teams with the
26:53
goggles. I always wonder who has to do the cleanup of that clubhouse.
26:59
Well, the beauty of their Rangers winning this on the road, Oh yeah,
27:07
I did see that. Arizona said that if the Rangers had made an
27:11
attempt to go swim in the pool in the outfield, that they would have
27:15
stopped them. Really, I think because they were saying like, if whatever
27:19
happens, we're going to make sure that the pool is off limits. And
27:22
I don't know if they're saying that out of liability or because they think it
27:25
would be you know, a kin to Terrell Owen's running to the you know,
27:29
to midfield and slapping a football on top of the star. Yeah.
27:33
I look at it as well as Trey knows from real estate. Well,
27:36
don't put an attractive nuisance in your outfield. Yeah, don't do that if
27:42
you don't want me to jump into it. Yeah, most places. Yeah,
27:45
I doubt that was the team's first you know, inclination is let hey,
27:48
let's go jump in the piss pool. No, they want to do
27:52
that. You want to go jump in in the Diamondbacks fans people, especially
27:56
when you've already flooded your locker room, you know, probably half mile away.
28:03
Yeah, why would you then run out to that pool out there?
28:06
Now you've already got one where you are, You're good, you're set,
28:07
you're solid, you got the goggles. Yeah. I did not think about
28:11
that because my thought was that poor person or that poor group of people that
28:15
has to clean that up. And then it's like, well, it's the
28:18
Diamondbacks thing. I was like, well, then you know you should have
28:19
been prepared. Yeah, you just just bring a really big squeegee. Also,
28:27
also, I want to make sure I mentioned this. I also think
28:30
attractive nuisance would be a good nickname for a doulas Garsia. Poor guy,
28:37
I mean torres obliques, poor nothing man. He's happy, He's like,
28:41
look like without him, they wouldn't have gotten to that game anyway. And
28:44
the fact that they were so resilient, which they were resilient all year,
28:47
which in order to be resilient you have to be really terrible at times and
28:49
then overcome it, which is exactly what that game was. So the whole
28:55
season, the Rangers were good and bad, good and then bad, and
28:56
then they were good when they needed to be for an entire month to win
28:59
the World Series. But even in that game, Yvaldi was if we're being
29:03
honest, he was not very good. He was phenomenal at getting out of
29:07
all those jams until his last snning, which made it even better because that
29:11
was that final game as a microcosm of the entire season. Yeah, but
29:15
so I was saying the same that I was sitting next to a very very
29:18
vocal Rangers fan when there was nobody in this particular bar restaurant that I was
29:26
at, like literally to the point where he was cheering and he was screaming
29:30
and yelling. Like one person across the room was like, how many people
29:33
do you think are in here? And I think he left shortly after that,
29:37
but he was talking about how they weren't going to the possibility of them
29:41
not winning because Dolos Garcia was injured. I'm like, hey man, he
29:47
he was injured and they still won one, right, so give credit to
29:51
the team. I mean, the guy got us there, but I mean
29:52
I felt bad for him in the sense that he got all the way there
29:56
and then had to suffer an inj and not be able to play as much.
30:02
But I can't remember who the kid is that barely they have the meme
30:06
of him now where he's like holding on to another guy like with his hand
30:08
up on his like on his chest or whatever. And the kid only like
30:12
went to bat once. I can't remember his name, but everybody was kind
30:15
of busting his balls too, But there was some meme going around about it,
30:18
like he was the most excited Rangers. He was like to make a
30:22
wish player yeah, like he only went to I think he went about once
30:27
and he was the most excited, Like he was always clapping and cheering and
30:32
like hugging people when they were done. They're like, you didn't, you
30:34
didn't You don't do anything like, oh, yes he does. That's an
30:37
entire team effort. And actually I'm said, so, I'm glad you mentioned
30:41
that, you know, uh that you feel bad for a doles Garcia because
30:47
he didn't get a chance to be on the field and you know in the
30:48
game war won. But see, Trey almost suffered a worse fate because the
30:55
week before Trey almost died. It's very possible Trey could have died and not
31:00
have seen the Rangers win the World Series. What m what happened? What
31:08
did I miss? Tell him Trey? Tell him how you were almost washed
31:11
away? Tell him how Tell him how you you did not turn around and
31:17
possibly drown. Uh. Yeah, remember the night that we had the massive
31:21
flooding, Like the first night we got this heavy rain. So I was
31:25
leaving work coming home, in which I have to navigate around Turtle Creek,
31:29
which is notorious for flooding. But then I got on Lemon Avenue and right
31:33
underneath the toll road. I you know, it's dark and I'm it's three
31:37
point thirty in the morning, and I can see their standing water. But
31:41
I I just didn't think it would be that much. And sure enough,
31:45
man, I barreled into it, and I had the moment of going,
31:49
oh, crap, I'm about to be on the news. Yeah when you
31:56
look out, when you look out the window and you see a fish,
32:00
yeah for something We've spent twenty years making fun of people doing yes, And
32:07
luckily I just you know, that split second you have a decision to make,
32:10
and I just floored it and luckily got through. But how how high
32:15
up was the water? So I have a you know, Mercedes s UV
32:20
and it was up past you know, at the bottom of the door.
32:25
Okay, so a little bit more, you know, it definitely could have
32:30
caused him engine problems. Okay, Wow, that is that would have been
32:34
hilariously tragic, because it is you make fun of them all the time,
32:38
and then you do the same thing. So I mean, at least at
32:42
least at the funeral, there have been some jokes. Oh yeah, jokes.
32:49
Yeah, it would have been it would have been more of like a
32:51
funeral roast. Yeah. I had one of those moments. I was in
32:54
I was in India performing and it was during the monsoon and the dry The
33:00
driver, the only driver that they could send for me, was like a
33:02
like a small, like four door Suzuki, like like the economy car that
33:07
you get at like a rental place. Oh yeah, like tiny and like
33:12
everybody else, like I can see like the BMW seven series on the side
33:15
of the road with the hazards on because he can't get through the water.
33:19
And then you know the jeep over there, and this guy's just trucking along
33:22
and the water keeps coming up and he just looks back and goes, pick
33:24
up your feet. And I was like, what it goes? It goes,
33:28
it goes, water coming in, pick up your feet, Like stop
33:32
driving? What are we doing? Like what game are we playing? That
33:36
come with a snorkel. I thought it was going to float away, but
33:40
he just powered through and he like a dick, was like waving at people
33:45
in like a seventh series Mercedes, a seven series BMW and like all the
33:49
jeeps and the Mercedes, he was waving at them. And we made it
33:52
to the venue and he's like, happens all the time, I'm like that
33:53
not not not not in America, buddy. I feel like I feel like
33:57
you found the Indian transporter. You should have gotten his card. That'd been
34:07
great if it was Jason State after the meg too. No, you never
34:14
know how deep is that water. You're listening to the Treehouse visit us online
34:27
that Treehouse on air dot com. Let's get Daniel Cook into the treehouse now
34:38
from COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration. Their phone number for your free roof inspection eight
34:43
three three Cook DFW, the website cookdfw dot com. So, Daniel,
34:46
I know, you go out to someone's house, you do that free roof
34:49
inspection, let them know good, bad, ugly with the roof, and
34:52
you're honest about it. You take photos and explain everything. But if someone
34:55
just wants to kind of eyeball it themselves, not go on the roof,
34:58
because I know you don't recommend that that's your But if I'm just walking around
35:01
the outside of the house, what should I be looking for to see if
35:04
there's possibly a problem. Things that a homeowner might be able to see from
35:07
the ground would be miss missing shingles. Obviously, if you see some gaps
35:10
in the shingles, or if you see some black underlayment, that means some
35:15
shingles have blown off. If you've seen maybe some of the ventilation folded or
35:21
maybe you know, bent backwards or anything like that. You also might see
35:25
around the perimeter you might see some of the metal drip edge or flashings maybe
35:30
loose. But you know, from the ground, it's it's hard to see
35:35
a lot of these homes here in North Texas. And so, you know,
35:37
the old days, the homes were really easy to get up on.
35:39
They were just a four or five pitch gable roof and jump. Everybody would
35:44
jump up there and fix their own roofs or or look at it and see
35:45
when they had a problem. And now these days you just can't do that.
35:47
And so yeah, I still think it's easier just to give us a
35:52
call. You know, it's no problem for us to come out. We
35:54
take thirty or forty five minutes of our time, you know, make an
35:59
assessment, take some like you said. We just did that this week.
36:01
A guy off a royal lane called us out. Extremely heavy pitch roof.
36:06
He said, my neighbors have been getting roos replaced, and I don't I
36:08
don't think I have any problems. We jump up there and he had one
36:12
of his exhaust vents, the cap of it completely was blown off, and
36:15
so he just had a hole in his exhaust and so water from rain was
36:19
just pouring down in that exhaust vent. He had no idea. You couldn't
36:22
see it from the ground. So those are the kind of things that we
36:23
do. We're gonna make sure your home is safe. And and like we
36:27
told him, you know, you're you're fortunate, sir, you don't have
36:30
a lot of roof damage, but you did need this done because it was
36:32
going to cause you a lot of problems down the road. So and that
36:35
and that to me is one of the that's one of the key factors right
36:37
there, is to try to avoid a major problem down the line. Called
36:40
Daniel Cook and his guys to come out take a look at the house now,
36:44
so you can avoid a major problem down the line. So give them
36:46
a call eight three three Cook DFW for that free roof inspection eight three to
36:50
three Cook DFW and COOKDFW dot com. It's the street house. Let's get
36:57
Jacqueline from Brooks Plumbing into the treehouse now. The phone number two one four
37:00
three six eight thirty eight thirty eight, and the website Brooks Plumbing Texas dot
37:04
com. Jacqueline, I'm curious what is the most common problem that people call
37:07
you and hoping that you can help them fix. I have a lot of
37:12
people that call me and they like us so much, and they want to
37:15
know, do you guys do HVAC? Do you guys do electrical? And
37:19
we don't. You know, it used to be back in the day there
37:21
were not a lot of companies that did more than one trade. It's become
37:24
more so of a frequent thing circa the late ninety early two thousands. But
37:30
I'm like a walking little black book of contractors, and so, like I've
37:34
always said, if I can't do it, I know somebody who can.
37:37
Like, for example, we don't do remodels, but I have a company
37:39
that does plumbing that I would allow in well, well, we'd remodel my
37:44
house. But I've got a company that I would have in my house if
37:46
I needed to remodel. I've got electricians that I trust that will push you
37:52
to the front of the line in if you call them same day, if
37:57
you say I was your your point of reference, you know I've got an
38:00
HVAC company that I trust. And it's because I'll tell you, when you
38:04
are a contractor, you're ten times more critical of the other contractors that you
38:07
work with because you know when you're getting a sales pitch, you know when
38:10
something is overpriced. You might not know why. But so that's what I
38:15
get a lot of. So because most anything that you that you need plumbing,
38:20
we can handle, but we don't go beyond that. But I've got
38:23
some I got a guy. You're the girl that's always got a guy.
38:28
And you know that's actually that makes sense that that's one of the most common
38:30
things that you get because if you've done a really good job for someone,
38:32
they're going to be desperate for you to do all the things. But obviously
38:36
you you focus on one and you do it really well. But you have
38:38
others that you can recommend to people that carry your stamp of approval. And
38:43
you have our stamp of approval. So give Jacqueline and Brooks Plumbing a call
38:46
for any and all of your plumbing once and needs two, one, four,
38:49
three, six, eight, thirty eight, thirty eight and the website
38:51
Brooks Plumbing Texas dot com. You're in there online at treehouseonair dot com.
39:04
This segment of the Treehouse brought to you by our friends at Brooks Plumbing two
39:07
one four, three six eight thirty eight thirty eight. Is their phone number
39:09

39:15
four, three six eight thirty eight thirty eight or the website Brooks Plumbing Texas
39:21
dot com Brooks Plumbing Texas dot com. I couldn't help, but when they
39:30
released the map or the Rangers Parade in Arlington, it dawned on me that's
39:37
like, oh, yeah, this is the first time Arlington's had to actually
39:38
plan a major one of these, like they have they've had like Fourth of
39:43
July parades and you know, things for kids and stuff like that in the
39:45
past. But I mean, you're talking about having to accommodate hundreds of thousands
39:50
of people descending on the middle part of Arlington. Yeah, and they said
39:54
there close to five hundred thousand Jesus Yeah, And you know, and then
40:01
I was reading up about it and like parking is free everywhere, and the
40:06
admission of the thing is free. I'm like, I understand that, but
40:08
you know, it's it's also a way for it's a way to give back
40:12
to the fans, but there's also a way to generate revenue and pay for
40:16
more security. Even if you charge five bucks or ten bucks, I think
40:21
it would eliminate a lot of the hassle, right yeah, because I mean
40:22
if people go, ah, we'll watch on TV instead of paying ten bucks
40:25
or fifteen bucks whatever it is. But when you make everything like I just
40:29
think of just the logistical nightmare of all of those people in a a in
40:34
a city that's not designed to be that big or to accommodate that many people.
40:39
But I'm watching it that they're look like it looks like they're doing a
40:42
great job. So yeah, just that's just a lot, a lot,
40:47
a lot of people in your city. But so I mean maybe it'll maybe
40:50
it'll do some good for the economy short term, like people going into restaurants
40:54
and eating and oh yeah, no, it's going to be it's going to
40:57
be a huge boon for businesses in Arlington, and not just for to day
41:00
but going into next year because I mean season ticket sales are going to go
41:04
through the roof next year. Everything everything is on the way up now for
41:06
the Rangers because now that they finally won a World Series. Yeah, I
41:08
will say I saw the the little video someone posted because the Rangers were in
41:14
a very sad club up until last Wednesday. They were one of six teams
41:19
in Major League Baseball without a World Series title. Since they've won, now
41:24
they're five, and someone took all the baseball logos and put them on the
41:29
toys from Toy story. When the one toy drives away, that's the Rangers
41:34
because they just won a World Series and it leaves Woody and the other ones
41:37
behind with like the Seattle Mariners logo, and they're on the porch looking like,
41:40
hey, what about what about us? So? Who the other?
41:45
Who are the other teams? Trey? Can you help me on this one?
41:47
I know it's Seattle, and I've I'm a bad sports fan. This
41:52
goes to show how much that twenty eleven World Series loss broke me. Is
41:55
I've not watched a whole lot of baseball since then, and I haven't followed
42:00
a whole lot of No. No, I followed you know, football.
42:05
I'm still an idiot Cowboys fan, and because the MAVs finally got one in
42:07
twenty eleven, I'm excited about whatever they can do but I got I was
42:12
baseball broken for a while. Wow that bad. I was in La So
42:16
I mean, did I missed that whole sadness? I guess that had befallen
42:22
the city of Dallas. I think San Diego is one. Yeah, got
42:28
the San Diego, Milwaukee, Seattle. Mm hmm, give me a second.
42:36
I have to accept all the cookies. See real sports shows, they
42:38
already know this stuff. We just look it up on the fly and tell
42:42
you that we're looking it up. Other sports shows may not know it,
42:44
but they'll look it up and pretend that they didn't know it. Padres,
42:46
Brewers, Mariners, Rockies, Rais. Oh wait, that's not right,
42:52
Oh no, it is okay, Yeah, never mind. I was thinking
42:54
the Rays didn't include but they've been to the World Series but had not one.
42:58
Same with the Rockies. Oh gotcha? Okay? Well, I mean,
43:01
well best so the five better left San Diego, Milwaukee, Seattle,
43:06
Colorado, and the Tampa Bay Rays. Gotcha? Okay? Yeah. I
43:10
was just moved to Los Angeles in twenty eleven, so I was busy doing
43:15
that when the sadness had hit the range. It is a very cool thing,
43:23
though, because now all of our major sports teams have have the trophy.
43:28
You know, Cowboys they've got five you know, you know stored away
43:31
at the Star. The Mavericks got THEIRS in twenty eleven. The Rangers now
43:40
have THEIRS that they've been so desperate for for so many years. And the
43:45
Stars have THEIRS and the Stars have Theirs. That's great. That's a great
43:50
sports city. Well trade you know how many championships the sidekicks one under a
43:59
tattoo? God? No, I think they might be the reigning king of
44:04
titles as far as North Texas sports goes. Oh yeah, I think so.
44:07
I mean I think that would be like six seven. Maybe I don't
44:12
have my phone to look it up, but yeah, I mean that was
44:14
I completely forgot that was there. That was the O. G. Dallas
44:16
dynasty right there. Yeah, I completely forgot that was Dallas. That was
44:21
indoor soccer. Yeah, and tattoo. Wow, whatever happened to that guy?
44:27
He became the coach at one point and then it's it's like it's like
44:31
it's like Joseph in the Bible. The page turns and then nobody knows where
44:35
he went. I think I think what happened is that this is a very
44:38
tragic story. I think what happened is when they detonated Reunion Arena, they
44:43
