  Speaker 2: Taco Bob, it's weird to say that, isn't it. When
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: I said it earlier on the show, I was like,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: it's kind of I'll just say.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Well, we've been commenting all year how quickly the year
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: has flown by, and while here we are in the
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: waning stages of it.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: And I'm not the We're not the only ones that
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: think that. I've talked to so many other people who
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: have right out together.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: God, this year is flying, no doubt.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: It truly is no doubt.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: So wherever we go today, we go feel free. If
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: you're watching this as it happens, to chime in with
• 0:41

• 0:45
  Speaker 1: that avenue open as well. Whatever works best for you.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: So holiday plans, Taco Bob, I think I had asked you.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: You're you're staying local? Hi, You're not doing anything?
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: No, Normally, you know, I'll like shoot down to the
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: keys or or something like that, but it's I'm looking
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: for something real quick. It's one of those things where
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: I'm like, well, I have something, let's say on Tuesday
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: of next week, so that would ruin a trip to
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: the Keys. Then I have something, well Thursday is Christmas, correct,
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: and then so that that takes and then that weekend
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I have a golf chart annual golf tournament chair.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: So the answer is local. Yeah. I had to know.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: I really had to think about it because I have
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: some planned every two days an event. So I'm kind
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: of like stuck between a rock and.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: A hard place.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Where it's great, they're fun events, but I'm also oh,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I'll get deeper on that in a second, but I'm
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: also kind of humhm h. I can't do a Keys
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: trip in two days. That just sucks. But it all
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: depends also how my how my physical goes. I think
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get frigging riot acted today.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Oh is it your annual physical?
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Huh?
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Boy, you pushed that late as far as you late
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: in the year as you could.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Huh. That's just when I scheduled it, which my buddies
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: pointed out, they said, why do you do it in December?
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I need to reschedule it till like
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: February for next year or what. I'm sure I'm gonna
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: be going back in February after they get my results.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: But I did it real, I did it what. I
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: went a happy hour last night, but I did my
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: I did my annual physical. I'm doing it real. I'm
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: gonna tell the doctor. I'm gonna say, look, I'm following apart, doc, now,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: I'm in great shape, go to the gym each day.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about my insides. I have a feeling a
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: little thing that starts with an L might have an issue.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: And it ain't my laby because I ain't got them
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: little pissies. But anyway, no, my lever. I have a
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: feeling that. But I'm gonna tell them.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: If you've been taking your milk thistle.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah I have, and I got that. I heard about
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: this new stuff called dose and that that stuff's supposed
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: to like be awesome for for your body and everything.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: But it's ten bucks a pill or a packet. So anyway,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: I'm just gonna tell my doctor.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: What is making you think you have a liver issue?
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Because I drink a lot, so I'm hey, well, I'm
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: gonna talk to the doctor and say, look, I did
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I'm just doing a true reading of where I am
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: and if you're probably not gonna like it whatever. I
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: just I'm sponsored by a beer company. I like to party,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: you know. I don't smoke crank, so there's some upsides
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: and I'm just gonna see what it looks like. You know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: I drink plenty of water, so yeah, that could change
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: vacation a little bit. That charity golf turn is great
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: because it's for charity, but that golf tourna is really
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: gonna suck if I can't drink. But I'll just probably
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: eat a gummy. Think if I gotta quit drinking, I'll
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: go to gummies.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: You're at the level where you think the doctor may
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: tell you have to quit drinking. First it was a
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: smoking and now no more drinking. I guess now, I
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: couldn't even imagine that version of you.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I don't think that he'd say that. Okay, I mean,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: I don't want to get personal and hip of stuff
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: with your health and whatever.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I got questions later, I'll talk about whatever you want.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Are you talking about the liver? Yeah?
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Did they tell you you have to quit drinking?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: No? My liver is in fantastic condition. Cool, it has
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: been for about three years.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Perfect.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I meant.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I meant at one point did they tell you that?
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: I remember when it was not in fantastic.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: There was actually about a six month period where I
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: was very, very very concerned.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Did they tell you though, Hey, you need to stop drinking.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: That's what I want to Uh.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: It was a combination of several things. That was one
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: of them, and the word was The word stop was
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: never used. It was moderate yourself. And I have done that,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: and I've made a conscious effort to do that, and
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: it's made all the difference in the world.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Figures, I do need to change mind from December, the
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: end of December to February, because February it's easier. Football
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: season's done, you know, we're not going out with beer
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: companies and everything, and then for football. And also I
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: can try that thing they called dry January. I think
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I might try it. I think the Doc's gonna probably
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: tell me to but I think I might try it
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: and start h January fifth, first day we're back at work, okay,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: because I have stuff leading up to the fourth going
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: on a fishing trip, right, all involves drinking rights. What
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: do you do when you're out in the boat fishing,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: That's it. You got a gold star for the correct answer.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: They're advocating on Facebook to's just quit drinking and smoke weed. Dude.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Of course that are always the answer, always the answer. Right, Well, well,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: good luck man. Maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised and everything
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: will be all right.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: What's the thing you always tell me, worrying about it
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: is praying for it to right.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: And I'm not gonna worry. I was a little concerned
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: and going into it, and that's why I said, f it.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: I'll get a happy hour with you guys. But so
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: that's my vacation plans. What suped you?
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: I had a very interesting scenario present itself within the
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: last twelve hours. You're gonna love this, Okay, Well, I
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: knew you were going to Kansas, driving out to Kansas City, Kansas,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: which is where my daughter lives. Yes, there's a Kansas City,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Kansas and a Kansas City, Missouri. They're right next to
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: each other on the state line.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Wait, does your dog have diarrhea? What you said I
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: was gonna love this? I thought maybe because my buddy
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: was doing a trip to North.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Florida where that come from.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Because you said you're gonna love this and I'm thinking
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: what my buddy Brian had to do. His dogs had
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: diarrhea and they had to drive to Tennessee. Said they
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: had to postpone the trip two days.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: So if our dog Otis is coming along for the trip,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: he does not have diarrhea that I'm aware of, and
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: he loves being in the truck, so we should be
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: fine anyway. Uh No, it involves something in Kansas City
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: that you love, Bandwagon.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Bob Oh, Kansas City Chiefs.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: So my daughter hits me yesterday and says, uh, I
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: want to go to the Chiefs game on Christmas Night
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: at Arrowhead Stadium. And I hadn't thought about it. It's
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: funny because Bob is, you know, a big Chiefs fan. Obviously,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: the Chiefs now know they're out of the playoffs. Patrick
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Mahomes done for the season, and they just had a horrible,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: horrible year. Even last weekend there was some empty seats,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: which I commented on earlier in the week empty seats
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: at Arrowhead which you don't have, you don't ever see.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: So that is now being reflected in the ticket market,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: where as of yesterday, thirty bucks and I told her,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I said, yes, let's do that Christmas night game. I said,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: let's do that. Don't get the tickets yet, though, I said,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: we can get him even cheaper. I'm telling you, once
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: we get closer, they'll be even cheaper.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Aren't you going to be full? And you know Christmas
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: night because you're eating Christmas lunch or dinner, you know,
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: your Christmas feast.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: We'll say, well, yeah, I mean, but it's not like Thanksgiving, man,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I mean we're we're maybe we'll have Christmas Eve dinner
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: instead of you know, blowing it up big on Christmas Day.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: But that's I'm just saying. You being the Chiefs fan
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: and me really not liking the Chiefs, but I have
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: a great appreciation for their their you know, their organization,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: the Arrowhead Stadium, the craziness of the crowd and the
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: whole scene. I want to take that in.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, who's their quarterback?
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: It'll be Gardner Minshew the mustache. They are playing the Broncos,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: so it could be a blowout, could be an absolute blowout.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: That's sell slaughter.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Do I have the balls to go and openly root
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: for the Broncos, who I really don't give a rat
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: sass about either? Or should I just sit on my
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: hands just sit on my hands, just watch.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: The game, and you cheer for each team who cares well. No,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't be cheering for Denver in there. Kansas City
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: people are chill. Well, that's pretty chill.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: They're they're hardcore when it comes to the Chiefs. Oh
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I know. So anyway, so it looks like we're gonna
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: end up doing that on Christmas night. That was not
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: in the game plan originally for the trip.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: You'll have to follow up with everybody and let us
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: know what you end up getting them for.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Now I'm confident they'll be uh, significantly less than that.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Just stop and think about it. I think I mentioned
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: this to Mark Daniels in the hallway conversation. It's like
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: I told him what I just told you, and he goes,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: oh god, he goes, you could probably walk up and
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: get him for ten bucks outside the stadium day of
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know if I want to risk
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: that play paying for parking.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: And then how far is the stadium too from where
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: my daughter lives?
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah ten minutes, I don't know, Yeah, ten minutes.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Ten minutes. So you could just as you're driving up
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: get tickets from somebody, you know, on the side of
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: the roads doing it. You haven't even paid for.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Park yet, so we'll see. But that should be fun.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and secure of the tickets. I know you, and
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: you're going to be stressed if you don't, if you
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: wait until like day of to try to walk up.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: And I know you'll look at me like I'm crazy
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: when I say this, and many of you will think
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I'm crazy when I say this. But the weather is
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: going to be incredibly warm for this time of year,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: not only there in the Kansas City area, but a
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: good chunk of the country Christmas Day there right now,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the forecast says high have sixty eight degrees about twenty
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: five degrees off.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so uh well, I mean, what's it going
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: to be seventy seven here right?
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Well? I was hoping that, you know, we'd have a
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: little bit of a Christmas feel while we were there,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't look like it's going to be. Although
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: for the driving part of it, I'll take the forecast.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been too crazy about driving through snow
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: or ice, which could could have been a real possibility
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: this time of year.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: And that's what I asked you at the beginning, when
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: you first said that you were going to Kansas for this, uh,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: to visit the daughters. Oh, are you a little concerned
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: about driving on ice? Because if it's me, I've done it.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: But I don't like it, so that's not even gonna
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: factor and so I'm not worried about it. So bottom
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: line is, in the span of about six months, I
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: will have gone to a Kansas City Royals game and
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: now a Chiefs game. Stadiums are right next door to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: each other.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: He went to the Royals game because he was hot
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: dog night.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Dollar hot dog Night. That was back in July.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Uh huh.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: That was awesome, man. Yeah. The funny part about that was,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: you know, you go it was again. It was me,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the wife and the daughter. We go to the Royals game,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: dollar hot dog Night. We all get a you know,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: a couple of hot dogs when we go in.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: Uh huh.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: And you know, so you're at six Bucks. It's perfect.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: You want anything to drink? Yeah, you're in.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: A baseball game.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, then back to my story, you gotta have a
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: cold beer top in the fourteen dollars beers all of
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: a sudden, dollar hot dog Night. It's such a great
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: deal anymore.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Eh, you know, take one with the other.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: So anyway, so that's that's the latest development for our
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: trip out to Case.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Okay, so the schedule give or take, so you drive
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: where you stop in the first night we're plowing.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: We're gonna leave on Monday morning at two am, which
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: is about when I usually start my day. So the
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: thought process here is leave it when I usually start
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: my day for work, which is two am, put a
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: lot of miles under us, and do the bulk of
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: the driving the first day. We're going to stay uh
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: in Paducah, Kentucky for the first overnight. Then we'll have
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: a very short second day to close in on Kansas City.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Okay, good, I like the angle.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: My wife can sleep for you know, the bulk of
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: the night time driving, and you know, just get out
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: of state of Florida, hopefully passed Atlanta before rush hour.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: H ah. Yeah, that's the plan, because yeah, I got you,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: that's the plan day wise. Cool.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: I hope you guys have a good trip there. Did
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: and then coming back, we're gonna I split it right
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: in half and stop in uh Chattanooga for the overnight.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it gets you. It gets you some Tennessee in.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: There, and uh in fact, it was funny. Last time
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: we drove up there and we went through Chattanooga, I'm like,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: I like this area. I like this area because we're
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: looking ultimately to land in Tennessee down the road. So
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: we spend a little extra time there this trip.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: That's okay. That was gonna be my question because last
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: time you spend a little extra time there.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: In another part of Tennessee that we we thought we
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: might have interesting. I was like, nah, uh huh, but this,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: you know, we'll see. Well, Chattanooga's nice, man, it's awesome. Yeah,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: it's awesome.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: So anyway, I was gonna ask you something about this show.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: But that's the holiday plan.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, New Year's Eve, will you still be there? No,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: we'll be back for New Year's Okay, we're just going
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: a week, okay, cool. I'll keep an eye on things.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that. I appreciate that.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: All right, So on I that might I mean literally, Pat,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: I'll keep an eye on things because I get again,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: you know, to day, I'm not worried about it whatever.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, looked at last night. I can't believe
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: you went out with us and you have your physical advice.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: I said, well, it's the last time. We'll all hang

  Speaker 2: has a full bag of mushrooms in his freezer. Yeah. Yeah,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: he's a trip. But anyway, so he Yeah, he throws
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: the curve off by doing dry Jenuine the February. But anyway,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: he's healthy. He goes to gym every day and it
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: looks good. So h how many beers I have last night?
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Not many? I wasn't.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: It wasn't purposely. I just knew that, you know, I
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: didn't want to get sauce on a weekday night, Wednesday night.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: So I, uh what three?
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Three, four?
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: And then one at a different place than our friends in.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: How many before you want?
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: None?
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: None? Okay? Do you drink beer every day?
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: I usually have a beer with lunch. I drink at
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: night too. Sorry, that's a comedians. Do you drink beer
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: every day? I drink at night at night?
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Okay, all right, well be curious. You'll have to
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: let us know if oh yeah, if you're gonna have
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: to make a drastic change.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, change is good if I had to, All right, yeah.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Sweet, you haven't even started your Christmas shopping you mentioned earlier.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: You haven't done nothing yet.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: I gave my dollar. We told our daughters. Really, look man,
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: two of you in college even though they have scholarship
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: stuff and whatever, it's expensive still, and we told them, look,
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: things are a little tight this year compared to normal.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: So and usually we get a big check from my
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: parents my anyway, long story with that, but so I
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: just we figured out, hey, girls, you're gonna get two
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: fifty each. You can either buy your own stuff or
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: we can pick it out, but we're not going above
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: two fifty. So I had the younger one I sent,
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: I asked her she needed I fired off two fifty.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: So I've venmoed that I'm done, and then I'm gonna
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: get a gift card for my wife, probably after my physical.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: The gift of cash is more and more desired. I've
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: seen a lot of pieces on that here in the
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: last few weeks where people are like, we need cash. Yeah,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: if you want to get me something, cash the best
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: you know. I've always thought that, and and the people
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: will go whether there's no creativity or thought put into that.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Who gives a shit. It's thought that it's in my
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: bank and I can get my hedges cut.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: And what it does is it frees you up to
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: do whatever you want with that cash. That's it. That
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: should be fantastic.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so anyway, precisely, and that's what we told him.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: That's been my argument for years. You knew that with
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Remember my wife said, you're just not thoughtful that you
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: just get me a gift card every for every event.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: I said, because I want you to be able to
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: buy what you want. If I go buy you a
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: pair of panties, you're gonna have granny panties. You know
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying, You're gonna have. I'm not good at
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: that shit. That's not my forte.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: I've done through trial and error over the years, attempting
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: to go into certain gift categories and go to buy
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: something for you know, I'll use my wife as an example,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: and she's the return queen and she makes no bones
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: about it. You know. I'd give her something and she'll go, oh,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: that's you know, and I can read her body language immediately.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: All right, I missed the mark again. God damn it.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Hey, you know, I know that's how it is with
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: my mom when she gives us stuff and she has
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: the costco receipts in there if you need to do whatever.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Did you hear about the return penalties where you do
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: different stores like Target, Oh.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: They've shortened the window on when you can return stuff.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I know a lot of reha and also yeah, there's
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: some some about receipts and money involved that you'll need
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: to pay if you're returning to nip in the bud
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: the football. Yeah, google it, just to nip in the bud.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Somebody buying for the Super Bowl a big TV and
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: then returning it the next.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Day, that is that's that dick. That is an ass
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: bag dick move. And you know every year when this
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: comes up, we always get a few folks who are like, yeah,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: I do that. I don't think twice about it.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Man, give returning into damn TV with some nacho cheese
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: on on it. Now.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: The other thing, too, is let's be realistic. If you
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: really really want to get a new TV, there's the
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: prices on those things. You may not get the greatest
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: with all the bells and whistles cheap, you can get
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: a big ass TV for relatively cheap.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Now you want to hear the return thing and we
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: may want to do this.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Where is this set? Uh? Here we go bringing up tomorrow.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: On the last show, I.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: Was thinking, uh, Christmas music, Yeah, look have some hot
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: black chick check Christmas shop and pat.

  Speaker 2: Here's a list of retailers that have return fees and
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: how much they charge, according to Yahoo Shopping and Parade.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: I'm going to read you from the get go, so
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: I don't step in it by just headlining. You know.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: While some retailers will waive those fees if you drop
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: off your returns in person, or if you or if
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: you're a rewards member, the majority of the retailers have
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: some kind some kind of policy where there's going to
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: be a fee for returns. Three to four months of
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: all three to four or sorry, three fourths of all
• 20:37
