Yeah yah yah yah, yeah yahyah. Welcome to the treehouse. I'm down
0:25
on Malley. He's Alphi koy tray tray and'll yeah yeah yeah. Okay,
0:28
now that we're all introduced, everyone knows everybody is Alphie. Well I'm so
0:32
happy. You want to know why? Please? Why? Why? Ask
0:35
me why I did? But you may ask you again one one of you
0:39
two obviously not me because I'm married. One of you two, either you
0:42
or Trey, recently had a big, hot romantic date. And guess who
0:46
it was. Oh man, Okay, it's me or Trey. Uh huh.
0:51
But I asked you why you were so happy, So I mean that
0:54
kind of that's a clue as to who it might be us. It's either
0:57
me or Trey. God, damn it. I think it's Alfy. I
1:00
think I think it might be me too. I'm not sure though, If
1:03
you're not sure that it didn't appear to be a good date, yeah,
1:07
oh, they rarely are. Uh it's a tough, tough setup. Um,
1:14
I'm gonna go with Trey. Oh, that would be correct. Okay,
1:17
So here's what we need to do. So tracing me a text.
1:19
It was it was yesterday or earlier, today. Hell, I can't remember.
1:23
I can't keep up, you know, brains cancer. Um, Trey
1:26
had said that he went on a date. So I am very much looking
1:30
forward to this because you two as the single guys of the show, I
1:34
want to hear about your about your dating lives because well, if we're being
1:38
honest, they're not that active. So whenever you guys actually go out there
1:42
and and meet somebody, I want you to know how interested and invested in
1:47
your lives I am. And we he had nos he's parted. It's okay,
1:52
be a nosey. I'm nosy. That's on my resume at the top,
1:55
it says Alfie Coy Nosy. I'm still I'm still coming to terms with
2:00
with my nosiness level. It's I'm working on it. I'm becoming more accepting
2:04
of it each each and every day. Um. But I want you,
2:07
Alphie to know that this is the level of excitement I too will have uh
2:13
huh in the off chance you go on a date. Yeah, well,
2:15
okay, can I ask it? I don't want to ask Trey just yet
2:17
because I don't want to spell the beans. No, but what was he
2:23
excited about it? When he told you about it? Was he kind of
2:25
like you know, I was like, hey, Dan, I had a
2:30
hot date. Or he's like, you know, Dan, I had a
2:31
date. Well it was it was via text message, so I couldn't get
2:37
a whole lot of the tone from it. Or there emoji's eggplant splashing emoji.
2:43
No, there were no emojis. Tray was being quite mysterious about it,
2:46
and I appreciate that because I like there to be some mystery. Uh.
2:51
So we can talk about these things with honest reactions here in the treehouse.
2:55
So here's what I'm proposing, Alphie, in preparation of Trey regaling us
3:02

3:07

5:23
story about your hot day. All right. So, uh met this girl.
5:30
That's a good start. Yeah, she uh met all the requirements that
5:36
I kind of currently have for dating. I mean, consent, consent um.
5:44
It's always a good start, you know, financially can take care of
5:47
themselves something your last relationship good and um, kids are have to be at
5:57
least close to graduation. If not, they're not are flown the coop.
6:00
This one happened to be. Her kids have already gone off to college,
6:02
empty nest, perfect now on a perfect esscer start and sexual it. If
6:11
you've ever dealt with kids, it is to not deal with them. Um.
6:16
So we uh we met for a drink. Now obviously I don't yeah,
6:23
but yeah I don't care if she does, and yeah, better for
6:27
you. So anyways, we uh met out a spot, you know,
6:31
just kind of like a happy hour first meet. See how it, oh,
6:36
kind of left it open, gonna see where how things went or everything
6:40
else. One of the few times you actually go on a date like this
6:46
and she looked like her pictures. Oh that's a that's a good thing.
6:50
That is a good thing. Yeah, it's sad that that's you know,
6:54
a bar that has to be crossed. But yeah, not control on the
7:00
shop, not a troll. And you know I didn't haven't asked three times
7:03
my size, Um does not know photoshop will be good. Yeah, So
7:10
we we start, you know, your typical first date banter. You know,
7:15
it was kind of feeling each other out a little bit, seeing what
7:18
the person likes, doesn't like everything else. And it started off great,
7:24
attractive. Like I said, she kind of met all the requirements. All
7:29
right. So um we're talking and just you know, talking about various things
7:35
and kind of like how life has changed, you know, dating in your
7:44
dating in your late forties, early fifties, blows in general. Yeah,
7:49
and um, I made a joke, as I have done, you know
7:54
in the past, about how you know, I laughed at you know,
7:58
I used to, like one of the biggest things on a Saturday night for
8:01
me to make sure I had was booze. And if I didn't make sure
8:07
to get to the liquor store before nine o'clock. Oh, that's a fun
8:09
race. I've done that. Yeah, we've all done that. You know.
8:13
You look at the clock, it's eight forty and you're like, oh
8:15
crap, time to pretend I'm in the f one. Yeah. And uh,
8:20
you know, for those who are professionals like I was, you know,
8:24
you know exactly where the nearest liquor store is and quickest route to get
8:28
there and make sure you can get in and out four nine o'clock and and
8:31
how long the lights are. Yeah, and so I made a joke about
8:35
that. You know, it's like hell, it used to be that,
8:37
you know, Saturday night, my biggest concern was making sure, you know,
8:43
I had enough booze to get me through that night and Sunday. And
8:46
now now I'm more worried about, you know, if get the bed on
8:50
time and make sure I have my moisturizer to put on at night. Yeah,
8:56
I thought you're talking about your face. Okay, now the places too,
9:00
well, soon, thing's got to stay moist m H supple soft.
9:07
Yeah. I was just talking about, you know, facial moisturizer, make
9:11
sure, trying not to wrinkle, trying to delay it. And she um
9:16
looked at me and she goes, what kind of man wears moisturizer kind of
9:22
a pansy thing to do. So what the benefits of looking youthful? Well,
9:33
that's you know, I there's a multiple red flags there, which is
9:37
a although she she looked good for her age, like, so you don't
9:43
take care of yourself or you just like basically you know, She's like,
9:48
I just don't you think men should be doing that? I said, so
9:50
you want to, you know, end up with someone who looks like Tommy
9:54
Lee Jones. I said, you have good luck to you have a nice
9:56
night, and I will. Oh that was it. You were just like
10:01
peace? Yeah, yeah, I was just like peace. I mean,
10:05
seriously, if if what took longer the date or you telling the story about
10:09
the date, me telling the story about the date, because I, oh
10:13
god, damn it. Trade, I was trying to stretch. That's a
10:20
terrible story. Well it was Dr Terry, you want some of these Trade
10:24
story was really crap. She lost her appetite thanks a lot trade. Hey,
10:30
notice in my text I never said it was a great story. I
10:33
just said, you know, I had a date, asked me, you
10:35
know, but so yeah, actually, you know, it took me longer
10:39
to get my car out of Valet than it did h the date itself.
10:45
So yeah, that's actually an additional insult to injury because you actually went to
10:50
the trouble to Valet. I went to the trouble Valet. I bought her
10:54
drink, so you know, it was five minutes, twenty five bucks,
10:58
and it's like, wow, I could have been at home moisturizing. Yeah,
11:05
moisturizing and enjoying my dog. That's such a dumb ass hill to die
11:09
on for a woman like I get. And I was actually really curious as
11:13
to what your you know, what's the word kind of um minimums are for
11:18
dating somebody, your standards or whatever the hell they're called your minimum Well,
11:24
no, I don't know what the what the proper term is. What is
11:26
that pulse? A job? You can get what I'm saying. What's that
11:31
term? What's the word I'm looking for? I don't care what it is.
11:35
It's now minimums. Trey on your next day, whenever that may be,
11:41
be sure to ask her do I meet all your minimums? Or tell
11:45
her, you know what, you're lucky to be here because you met all
11:46
my minimums. What's the term KPIs your key performance indicators point is is that
12:00
we'll have them. Some people's are a little bit more unreasonable than others,
12:03
but you know, if that's what you're going for, that's what you're going
12:07
for. And she has an idiotic one, a dumb ass one. What
12:13
is it if if a man decides to, you know, wear lotion.
12:16
I mean, hell, that's that's just so idiotic. I know, I
12:22
don't dude, combat veterans that use moisturizer on a daily basis. You want
12:28
to know why because they want to look young for as long as they can.
12:31
Because really it was also probably really fff and dry in the desert and
12:35
they feel like cooling off the bit once they make it home. Ain't nothing
12:39
wrong with that. I'd also like to point out my dad did not pass
12:43
on a ton of things to me. Uh. He passed on some great
12:48
information and some good advice. Two things that he did pass on one was,
12:52
and I still appreciate it to this day, he said, I'll never
12:56
force advice on you. If you come to me looking for it, I
12:58
will happy offer it, but it's up to you to take it. And
13:03
the other thing he told me is moisturized and I'm not making that up.
13:05
He actually did. He's like if you want to keep looking young, you
13:09
know, but some moisturize are on your face. That's really at all all
13:11
it is that and staying out of the sun sunscreen, and then showed me
13:16
how to use the miter salt, the box miter or like the the Dwalt
13:22
dualt. Okay, you ever use a box miter before? I have not.
13:26
It's pretty nice. So you get gets a lot of sawdust everywhere,
13:28
just like the Dwalt. But you know, then you gotta you gotta moisturize
13:31
afterwards. Yeah. See he didn't want to show me that because he had
13:35
just moisturized and he didn't want Hi much to sawdust on his face. Makes
13:37
sense, I get that. Yeah, he didn't want to look ridiculous,
13:43
by the way, Trey. So I put my frescot down and I grabbed
13:46
a stronger drink to commemorate your date, terrible court. That actually reminds me
13:52
This past Friday, I was at the mall and in the store next to
13:58
me shopping or mall walking. Now I was, I was shopping, But
14:03
this past Friday I was at the mall and uh, there was a girl
14:07
there that I went to high school with. It I had a crush on
14:11
and I look over and she is just an old lady like I. It
14:16
sounds like such a dick thing to say, But she did not age well,
14:20
And I don't know what that says about me, like if if I'm
14:24
older than I perceived myself to be, or if she just didn't take care
14:28
of herself at all. But she looked terrible. She may have had her
14:33
rough twenties. Man, maybe, but it's it's odd how some people can
14:37
can age tremendously in a relatively short amount of time. I guess, and
14:46
I've seen other people that i've you know, that I've went to high school
14:48
with, and they look fantastic. So it's not like everyone's elderly now.
14:52
It's just I look over at her, and it took it took a second.
14:58
Yes, I was like, crap, is that you and I just
15:01
ran the other direction. I bugged out of her skull. I will say
15:07
this, Alphie, and you're you're You've probably got a twentieth high school reunion
15:11
coming up in the next couple of years. I would guess, so your
15:15
twentieth that's everyone that is, everyone will look their best, Yeah you think
15:20
so, oh yeah, oh so you're not you're not counting like the tenth
15:24
anniversary. Then I generally my class, like I would say everyone looked their
15:31
best in their thirties, because you know, everyone was kind of an S
15:33
show in their twenties. So yeah, probably a little more haggard, but
15:39
but compared to and I say that, but then when you get to the
15:43
thirtieth, holy crap, everything goes Oh that's that's when genetics really starts showing
15:52
through. And and you know, some people look great, and then there's
15:56
other people you're like, you know, I your story BAR used to work
16:00
at. I looked over at this table and I thought, oh, you
16:07
know it. You know, it looks like a bunch of you know,
16:10
granddads. And it turns out one of the guys was a guy I went
16:14
to high school with. And I was like, oh my god. Yeah,
16:18
it's a freaky feeling, isn't it. Do you want an know the
16:19
difference between you and him. He don't moisturize or watched his waiter or anything
16:30
for that matter. So what you're saying is the thirtieth anniversary is the one
16:33
where everybody really needs to name tags, yes, because otherwise you're not going
16:38
to know who that was from high school? No, dude, one of
16:44
my exes had this like fourteen bottle routine that she would go through every night
16:48
before going to bed. You know what I mean. That's funny. Trey
16:51
used to have one, but it was four booze? Is that gonna have
16:55
to go to break on you? Notice he's not denying it. Okay,

honest opinion. Quality people big in the community, and I want to make

sure they take care of the Treehouse clients, so give them a call the
20:25
website cook at THEFW dot com. So I'm guessing Trey that, uh,
20:32
there's been no further discussion with the anti moisturizing date lady. No. No,
20:38
I think you know, when you abruptly get up and leave someone,
20:42
Uh, they clearly took a hint that it wasn't going to work. Did
20:52
you both get up at like the same time? Or is this more like,
20:56
was she surprised that you told her to f off because she didn't like
20:59
the fact that you like to moisturize. Oh, she was surprised by it.
21:03
You she didn't deserve anything better than what you did. I mean,
21:06
absolutely nothing better than what you did. I think I was more shocked because
21:12
women are you know, all men have really done is kind of picked up
21:18
what women have been doing for years, which is moisturizing and trying to take
21:22
better care of yourself. Yeah, and so yeah, I was, you
21:26
know, I was shocked by it. But you know, each their own.
21:32
It's like, I guess I do like the fact that you know,
21:33
I do like the fact that you did throw Tommy Lee Jones in her face,
21:37
because I mean if you don't moisturize that, you know, because we
21:44
made the joke about it. You had a fourteen bottle, you know,
21:47
nightly habit with alcohol. But let's be honest, alcohol drives you out.
21:51
So you're doing things in your life now to sort of counteract the effects of
21:56
years of alcohol abuse, one of which is, you know, moisturizing.
22:00
Otherwise she's gonna end up married to a Tommy Lee Jones look alike. And
22:03
I don't remember Tommy Lee Jones ever really being referred to as a heart throb.
22:07
Ever, No, you can go back. I mean, my earliest
22:12
memories of Tommy Lee Jones, I think are probably lonesome dove and he looked
22:15
old then and he wasn't even that old. Ultimate it's ultimately a giant red
22:22
flag that is going to rear its head in other ways. Like I was
22:26
saying before the break is I had an exit had like a fourteen bottle moisturizing
22:30
routine before she would go to bed. It was little bits of this serum
22:34
and that hyaluronic and the other you know, moisturizer tincture and whatever, and
22:41
yeah, the the ironic acids, yeah exactly. And I thought I thought
22:45
about like, you know, hey, this is kind of silly, But
22:47
then I realized she's doing that for me, you know what I mean,
22:51
She's doing yea to make sure that she still looks good. And it may
22:56
not wholly be for me because she did break up with me, but so
23:00
so the next guy too. It started it started as you, but then
23:04
it ended up being for the next guy. Yeah, exactly. At least
23:08
at least you are included in this scenario. Yeah, And I'm not going
23:12
to make fun of somebody that's a taking care of themselves and be doing that
23:18
taking care of themselves in part for you. It's idiotic to trash somebody who
23:26
is It's idiotic to trash somebody who is actively doing something that will benefit you.
23:33
Treys out there making sure that he looks good for the next woman,
23:36
and for this lady to crap on him for it, she deserved even less
23:41
if Yeah, it's also should escorted it at hertly that but what what what
23:47
that also spied? What that also speaks to because uh, if she can't
23:51
recognize the fact that Tray's taking care of himself in general for you know,
23:53
her benefit or the benefit or the next woman, that he's never inevitably going
23:57
to date. Then that's another issue. You know, It's like not just
24:03
the fact that that she doesn't think it's mainly enough, but also the fact
24:06
that she can't recognize or appreciate effort. If you don't recognize and appreciate effort,
24:11
that's a massive, massive red flag. Exactly the same God. And
24:15
then let's let's flipping around, because let's take something like like alfie you said,
24:22
Trey in this case, or men doing some things like say moisturizing,
24:25
taking care of their face or whatever, so we look pretty for the ladies.
24:30
Let's flipping around when we on our ends, as a guy see a
24:34
woman doing something that might be considered more masculine, we appreciate it. For
24:37
example, on the first date, if Trey's date lasted longer, maybe she
24:42
tells Trey, oh, I love going to the gym and working out.
24:45
That wasn't something that women did very often. You know, when exercise and
24:49
working out and lifting weights was mostly a male thing, and then when chicks
24:53
started doing it, men saw the benefit and go, yeah, this is
24:56
cool. We can go to the gym together and I could watch or due
24:59
squats. I don't I don't even think about that sort of thing. To
25:00
me, there are very very few things in life that are like straight masculine
25:04
or straight feminine. It's if somebody wants to work out, they can work
25:07
out. Somebody wants to moisturize, they want to moisturize. To me,
25:10
there is no difference whatsoever in male or female. There it's it's good as
25:15
good, and uh, no gender or lack thereof holds the patent on good
25:21
stuff, you would think. But clearly it was to this chick that's unfortunate.
25:26
Was she idiot? Well, and it's such, it's like, and
25:30
she was older than I am. I think she was fifty two, and
25:34
she looked great, like clearly took very good care of herself, and like,
25:40
why wouldn't you want that in a partner? And maybe she's into the
25:47
ape of the gooda type. That's what probably is. She's probably fifty two
25:49
years old and still has daddy issues. M that I actually yeah, her
25:56
parents were actually were still together, and I'm assuming that how she sees her
26:03
father is how she thinks her mate should be. And old, yeah,
26:07
old and you know, old and looking older. But it's well, it's
26:17
one of those things and maybe I maybe because of my age, it's it's
26:22
becoming more and more apparent. But like my parents, like my dad,
26:27
like there used to be in that generation, it was I think, almost
26:33
like a foregone conclusion of well, you turn fifty, you're kind of,
26:37
you know, getting close to retirement. You know, time to hit the
26:40
rocking chair, and well, and we're not like that, like the world
26:45
has changed. And you know, I don't think anyone thinks of I mean,
26:49
even if I won the lottery tomorrow, I don't think I would quote
26:52
unquote retire because I'd be bored out of my mind and a week and hell,
26:56
I've been out of work for two months and I'm some of that was
27:03
scheduled, but then, you know, I'm bored now. I can't even
27:04
imagine actually being retired and not having anything to do day in and day out.
27:12
I actually learned from my grandfather, you know what. You know,
27:15
my grandfather's idea of retirement was cattle ranching. He retired at the age of
27:22
fifty five from Phillips Petroleum Company. Right retires at fifty five, what does
27:26
he do with his retirement? He goes and buys like two hundred acres and
27:30
started raising cattle. He became a cattle rancher in his retirement, which keep
27:34
in mind, if you're a farmer, you're a rancher. Anything agricultural like
27:38
that. There are no off days. Every day is a working day.
27:41
And that was his idea of retirement. He did that for like twenty years
27:45
before he finally officially actually retired and then just lived in his recliner. Yeah,
27:52
anything farming ranch that's dairy business is probably the worst because I grew up
28:02
with a guy who lived on his family had a dairy farm. Because those
28:04
cows have to be milked twice a day every day, and no if,
28:07
no ends, no butts. You're married to it. And you know what,
28:11
you know what, Actually it makes really good moisturizer milk. What you
28:15
get, you get a little bit in a bucket and then you just just
28:18
lathered on your face and you look like an angel. Well I figured you
28:22
just scored it directly on. Well, that depends, and you know,
28:26
the delivery method is really a preference type of thing. I don't like this
28:30
conversation, and I'm usually the one that starts this kind of conversation. Weird
28:34
being on the receiving end and say giving it isn't it? It's uncomfortable.
28:37
I just have an image of Dan under a cow teat with his cat tongue
28:41
hanging out. As much as I hate that punchline, do not explain any
28:48
other. I want someone new that does no idea what you're talking about to
28:52
really really be mystified right now, car go worries moreisturizing real quick? Can
29:00
I can? I can? I can? I just kind of break this
29:03
for a moment and and just tell you Alphie and Trey how much I appreciate
29:07
you guys. Why I mean it, I really, I really do mean
29:11
this. It was a couple of days ago. I was having an absolute
29:15
crap day, and at the end of the day, I thought, you
29:22
know what, at least I get to hang out with my buddies, you
29:25
know, in a day and a half, and hopefully I'll feel a little
29:27
bit better. And I do, so I thank you for that. What
29:32
time do you start drinking? I actually the first ship I had was the
29:36
one I uncorked just a few minutes ago to sort of commemorate the death of
29:41
your date. Well, it was a lovely compliment, Thank you, yam.
29:47
Speaking of drinking, why isn't it that more old people who retire don't
29:49
get into drinking and drugs because if you got nothing in my plan since I
29:55
was in high school, because I didn't do a ton of it in high
29:56
school. I mean I did some drinking. I experiment a little bit,
30:00
you know, like weed, but I didn't do anything hard like a number
30:03
of friends did. I wasn't looking to try to score a keg every weekend.
30:07
I wasn't trying to define hits of acid on a Friday night, you
30:11
know, or anything like that I had. I had other focuses. But
30:14
I told myself, when I'm older and I retire, I'm gonna do some
30:18
stuff. I'm gonna experiment with some things that I never have. Yeah.
30:21
Like in there's a movie called Children of Men, And in the movie,
30:23
Michael Caine plays a like an aging hippie who's like was once working in I
30:30
don't know, biotech or some crap, and all of a sudden he's just
30:34
growing weed and like doing mushrooms. And it kind of struck me as like,
30:40
why aren't more old people doing that once they retire. They've got all
30:44
this money saved, they ain't gotta you know, worry about a drug test
30:47
on a job. Nope, Why isn't Why isn't Colorado filled with retirees like
30:52
Florida is, Well, the old people love cocaine and that's why they're in
30:56
Florida. That could could be part of it that I think that could be
31:02
a big part of it. But I'm with it like like like for me,
31:04
I look, I'm looking forward to that time when because I don't like
31:08
losing control. Really, that's why I don't do hard drugs. So the
31:12
idea of taking a hit of acid terrifies me. Doing shrooms worries me because
31:17
I don't know where I'll end up. But by the time I'm seventy and
31:18
fully retired, if I eat a couple of mushrooms, you know, suck
31:22
on a gummy, or you know, take a hit or two of acid
31:26
over a weekend and I end up naked standing on top of the ball at
31:30
Reunion Tower, so be it. I'm retired, Solsal Security will cover my
31:34
bail. It just feels like like the kind of I don't mean natural course
31:41
of progression, but Trey, like you were saying, it's a danger if
31:47
you don't have something to do, if you don't have a routine every day.
31:48
There's a danger of falling into that just drinking a bunch, And it
31:53
just surprises me that old folks aren't constantly drunken high Did you ever meet John
32:02
or Russ? Is twelve minutes long enough for a segment only if we really
32:10
really swear it makes the next segment longer. Okay, good, you're in
32:16
Blue Treehouse. Visit us online at Treehouse OnAir dot com. All right,
32:35
time to welcome in Jacqueline from Brooks Plumbing the website Brooks Plumbing Texas dot com
32:40
for any and all of your plumbing needs, give them a call two one,
32:44
four, three six eight thirty eight thirty eight. Hello Jacqueline, how's
32:47
your week been? I am tired, but we are good. A lot
32:52
of plumbing issues going on in people's lives. Yeah, you can't outsource it,
32:59
and it always seems to pop up when you least expect it. And
33:02
you know, Murphy's Law dictates that it's going to happen on a weekend or
33:06
after hours, and that's just the way of the world. Unfortunately, that
33:09
is that is true. Unfortunately, So let's let's actually piggyback on that.
33:12
Can you give me an example, you know, sometime over this past week
33:15
where something occurred in someone's home or some other scenario. But you're just really,
33:20
really proud of something that one of your guys did in doing a great
33:24
job for one of your customers. I mean, for me, I think
33:30
customer service is about the little things. So I had a gentleman call not
33:36
too terribly long ago, and he said, I feel silly, but I'm
33:38
an older gentleman, and I'm as i've grown older, I've grown a little
33:42
weaker. And I turned on an exterior hose bib where you would hook up
33:45
a garden hose, and it's very stiff, and I just can't get it
33:49
turned off. I'm not too far from your office. How much would you
33:52
charge me to just come shut off the water? And I just told him,
33:55
I said, that's absolutely ridiculous. I'm not going to charge you for
33:59
that. We're but we're gonna come and we're gonna do it, and I'll
34:02
knock on the door and let you know when we're there and when it's done.
34:07
It's just about the little things. And I've got a little lady that
34:09
we do a lot of business for, you know, over the years,
34:13
and I like I told you. At one point in time, we are
34:15
having a conversation. She's she's legally blind, and she said, I'm really
34:17
running low on milk. Would you mind grabbing me a gallon of milk?
34:22
And I'll pay you for the time and pay you for the milk. And
34:24
I told her, I said, I will grab you the milk. We
34:28
will not charge you. You know, it just feels good to do the
34:30
little things, especially for the seniors. Um And that same lady, I
34:32
don't know if anybody's been to Keller's in Dallas, that same lady asked me
34:36
one day if we would bring her a number five special from Keller's because she
34:39
wanted a burger. So we went and got her to burger. Sometimes it's
34:43
just about being a good person. So that's amazing. That really is amazing,
34:47
because you know, I see and I have seen, you know,
34:51
other plumbing companies quote unquote the big guys running around doing all these things and
34:54
and and I've used some of them and they're very good. But I love
35:00
the personal touch that you and your guys bring at Brooks Plumbing. Granted I'm
35:05
not going to abuse it like others and ask you to you know, bring
35:08
me food. But I love the fact that you do it for those that
35:12
you see that need that additional help. So you want to support a company
35:15
that does many great things besides what they do for a living, It's time
35:21

37:42
industry and for a fraction of the cost of the big guys. So good
37:47
plumbing at a great phrase Brooks Plumbing Texas dot Com. Dan, you said
37:54
earlier you were having a bad day. You want to Yeah, it was
37:58
a couple of days ago. It's just one of those days where nothing was
38:00
going right. You want to tell you buddies by you want to tell us
38:02
all about it, Dan, You want to let us know we got you.
38:07
We're here for you. I mean, not so much me, but
38:09
I mean Tray, all right, I'll mainly look at Tray for this.
38:15
Yeah, and I'll just listen for the snide comments from Alfie, which by
38:20
the way, is kind of the show in a nutshell. No, the
38:23
other day, it was just one of those days. And I know,
38:25
I know you guys have experienced them. They're not unique to me. They're
38:29
not unique to any one person. Everyone has them every so often. It's
38:32
like it doesn't matter you know good karma, bad karma, living somewhere magical
38:38
or living somewhere you know you know bad, You're going to be susceptible to
38:44
the occasional bad days. So my bad day the other day wasn't even just
38:47
my bad day, was also my wife's and our two bad days combine.
38:52
So my day started with, Okay, I wanted to go to the gym,
38:57
So I go to the gym. But the gym I went to because
39:00
I was trying to do a logistical games where I could map out my day
39:04
strategically, right, So I go to a different location of my gym,
39:07
which is Acrosstown. So I go to this gym I don't normally go to,
39:13
but it's the same same company, right, And that's when I realize
39:16
I don't have access to this gym, so I can't get a hold of
39:22
the owners to get me access to the gym. So then I need to
39:24
Acrosstown to the other chart or something like that you can't get into or they
39:30
do it through an app on your phone so you can unlock and lock the
39:32
doors because they're not always there because they have a couple of different locations,
39:38
so they can't always be there to monitor the gym, and I guess they
39:44
figured they'd rather go this route as opposed to hiring and paying somebody just to
39:47
kind of babysit the gym, which I get. If you can do it
39:50
through technology and save the money, then by god, go for it.
39:52
So it's actually literally available to you twenty four hours, not just kind of
39:57
a phrase they use exactly. Okay, cool, that's nice. So unfortunately
40:04
I didn't have access to that gem on my phone and they have to kind
40:06
of run it through their I had to get approval for it, so I
40:08
didn't have time to wait for that, so I had to drive across town
40:12
go to the other gyms. I go to the other gym. Then Tara
40:15
was done with work a little bit sooner than I expected, so I had
40:17
to leave the gym early drive back across town to meet her for breakfast,
40:21
which is which is fine. That's a good thing, right. Well,
40:23
the bad thing is though, when she's trying to park, she ends up
40:27
being the victim of some a hoole's road rage because he wanted a parking spot
40:30
that he thought he deserved and she didn't. So she got to experience that,
40:37
which is always great for anybody, but especially when all she's trying to
40:42
do is park in a parking spot. And she hadn't even completely passed the
40:46
parking spot. She had basically just gotten even with it when someone started to
40:51
back up, So she did what you would normally do. You throw up
40:53
reverse and you back up a whole foot. You let that person out,
40:57
You take the spot right. Well, the guy behind her didn't think she
41:00
should have that spot, so he laid on his horn, was dog cussing
41:04
her everything else. She gets the spot, but of course he's mad,
41:08
so as she gets out of the car, he rolls his window down.
41:10
He's yelling all sorts of just terrible things at her. Now, when I
41:15
show up to the place for breakfast, he's sitting outside and sees us,
41:20
and then all of a sudden, you know, he buries his face into
41:22
his phone. He doesn't have as much to say now that she's not alone.
41:24
Okay, so quick question, how you had a chance to work out
41:27
at this point a little bit? Yeah? Okay, so you had some
41:30
pump on, you had some swoll right, So you were walking up like
41:34
kind of like flexing a little extra jacked. Yeah, I wasn't flexing,
41:38
And honestly, I didn't really know what had happened yet because she was in
41:42
the in the process of still telling me what happened. When I saw this
41:45
guy looking at us, and I was wondering, why is this guy looking
41:46
at us? You were walking around like you do normally after going to the
41:50
gym, where you're just kind of like, you know, you look like
41:52
you know, Batista, and you got like a neck vein popping out.
41:55
Yeah? Is that it? Is? That what it was? You know
42:00
what? Sure, that's exactly how I look. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
42:02
you look off from the guardians. Yeah, exactly, had your shirt
42:06
off, busting them nipples out, and it's the island or Oklahoma or whatever,
42:12
and you got to show off. Yeah yeah, I got that.
42:15
I got that good punk to city pump. So yeah, no he he.
42:19
All of a sudden got real quiet when it came, you know,
42:22
time to you know, to see the terrible woman who took his parking spot.
42:28
So then later and then so you go back to work again later then
42:30
later in the day. All we really wanted to do was just get dinner,
42:32
right and we we're gonna go out to dinner. We're gonna get something
42:36
out. So we go to a place near the house, and as soon
42:38
as we get there, they are out of food. We don't mean out
42:44
of food, they were they closed the kitchen either. I think I think
42:46
they had so many tickets backed up they were they thought they were going to
42:50
run out of food or it was going to take them over an hour to
42:52
make all the food that was already in order or in q. So they
42:57
basically just closed the kitchen. Even though it's one of those places it's open.
43:00
You can see the kitchen and they're still cooking, but they tell you
43:02
kitchen's clothes. Well, but it's they're still cooking. I can I can
43:07
see the grill. It's on, like there's meat on it. Like,
43:09
well, yeah, but not for you, not anymore. Fine, So
43:15
we hop in the car. You've already, can't, sir, you any
43:19
more meat, there's no protein here for you. Also put on a shirt,
43:24
so so that's like okay, fine, then we'll go to a different
43:27
place. We'll grab dinner in a different place. So we go to grab
43:30
dinner at a different place, and luckily their kitchen was still open. However,
43:35
however, it took an hour for them to make the food. Now
43:37
ask me what the food was. What was the food? A salad?
43:44
What kind of salad? Because they can get kind of involved. Just a
43:46
grilled chicken caesar. It took them an hour to to to to rastle up
43:52
a grilled chicken caesar salad. Now is the island a lot busier right now?
44:00
Is it? You know, out of school? People out of school,
44:02
like tourism time or no weird night. I think it was just like
44:08
I said, I think it was just an off day. It was an
44:12
off day from beginning to end, driving across the island three or four times,
44:15
having to go to two different places to get food, which took two
44:20
and a half hours just to get a salad. They're just some days that
44:24
don't go well. And you know, Terry gets yelled at because she parked
44:28
in a parking spot that some ahole thought was his, and it was just
44:30
it was just one of those crab days. But I the only reason I
44:34
mentioned it to you earlier is because coming in here with you guys makes me
44:37
feel better. And I just wanted to say thank you, well you're welcome.
44:45
Yeah, yeah, thank you Trey. Yeah, yeah. See.
44:47
Then there's there's see I see, I told you. I told it to
44:50
you, Trey. And then there's Alfie with the snide under his breath.
44:53
How do you want me to react? It was it was your delivery.
44:57
It's not what we said, it's how you said it. Well, I
45:00
mean there there is a little bit of Pavlovian conditioning here that you know when
45:05
the host says something complimentary that everyone just kind of, you know, tries
45:09
to shield themselves and duck, yeah, you know something terrible's coming. Listen,
45:16
here's your right here. I got you guys, ipatch and you look
45:19
over your head for the envil. It's it's rare that cold hearted Dan O'Malley
45:24
shares a tender moment. I'm just saying, so I don't know what to
45:28
expect. Well, in that case, I'm going to continue going against that
45:31
grain because there's something else I wanted to share with you guys, because I
45:36
got a little bit of enjoyment out of it, and in case you were
45:37
not having the best of days, I felt like this might uh you know,
45:42
get a get a chuckle out of you. ALPHI there's some audio I
45:45
sent you if you would play that here in just a second. Let me
45:47
tell you the backstory here. Okay, all right, you ready, okay,
45:53
um. This happened in a town called Hastings, Pennsylvania, which is
45:59
about ninety miles east of Pittsburgh. The owner of an apartment complex had hired
46:05
an exterminator to come in and spray pesticide, you know in the units,
46:08
you know, for bugs and such. Problem is, one of the tenants
46:12
found a spider a few days later, and that tenant decided, well,
46:15
I don't though if they were really sprayed, So he went and checked his
46:19
security camera footage, and upon checking the security camera footage, he discovered that
46:27
the exterminator sprayed more than pesticide in his apartment. He actually saw him king
46:34
in several different spots around the living room, on their rug, their couch,
46:39
a side table, also on their daughter's toy box. The guy's name
46:45
is Roger Young. He's actually the owner of his own pest control company,
46:50
Young's Pest Control. And he just flat out admitted it. He's like,
46:53
yeah, I did it. And police asked him why. He just said
46:55
he was having a bad day and was sick of people, which I think
46:59
we all can a fight with no. Um, No, I cannot identify
47:02
with this, Dan, I've never had a bad day and been sick of
47:06
people to where I'm like, you know, I got to pee everywhere in
47:07
someone's house. Well, not to that day. I'm just saying that we
47:10
all can identify with having a bad day and being sick of people. I'm
47:14
not saying we identify with whipping it out and piston on everything they own.
47:16
I have had a bad day, I've been sick of people. I've never
47:21
thought, you know what, I need to just pee just everywhere, just
47:24
libraries, courthouses, churches. Oh no, yeah, I never never has
47:30
that crossed my mind. Never. You never pulled an AZZI never pulled an
47:35
azzie. Huh. Nope, that's good that you don't, because that's bad.
47:39
Um. There is a little more to this story though, um So.
47:46
The local news of course, got wind of it, and they decided
47:49
to talk to the tenant who had the security footage about the exterminator peeing everywhere
47:54
in his apartment a cat who was sitting at the corner while he was urine
48:00
eating, and we're pretty sure that it splashed onto the cat. The maintaining
48:05
it upsets me is that he yearn eated on my daughter's toys. It's just
48:09
it's a little girl, you know that. That's that. That's ft up.
48:14
That's beyond ft up. Dude. Have you ever been so mad that
48:19
you peed on somebody's cat? That's I got. I got no way to
48:25
relate to this. I got nothing for this. It's just no I know
48:30
that. That's what I mean. That's always sound like the relatability begins and
48:34
ends with having a bad day and wanting to do something about it because it
48:38
and it ends when you start you start peeing on things in people's apartments.
48:43
You go when you have you have a drink. If you you've been having
48:46
a bad day, if you don't want to drink, go you know,
48:49
exercise, go work out, go to like an axe throwing thingy or something.
48:53
Don't go. I was having a bad day, so I just started
48:57
to piss everywhere in your house. Now that that's a psycho, man,
49:00
That is an absolute psycho and golden shower. Barbie was asking for it.
49:07
Thank you for bringing that up. Trade. Let's go back to the beginning
49:09
of the audio, where the tenant once again has to share with us everywhere,
49:15
specifically that the exterminator TT. The cat was sitting at the corner while
49:20
he was urinating, and we're pretty sure that it splashed onto the cat in
49:24
maintaining. It upsets me is that he urinated on my daughter's toys. It's
49:30
just it's a little girl, you know, and she played with it in
49:35
his pee for two days. That's what I don't find funny about this period.
49:39
No part of it do I find funny. It's jacked up. It's
49:43
psycho this man. However, however, the laws are structured to where he's
49:47
going to get charged with X y Z. They need to bump that up
49:52
to like two levels up. If it's a misdemeanor, you know, b
49:55
make it a felony one, because that's beyond jacked up. There is facing
50:01
go ahead. He's facing charges for criminal mischief and distortally conduct. The tenants
50:06
say replacing the rug, couch and other belonging belongings cost them over four thousand
50:12
dollars. No word on how much Golden Shower Barbie set them back, though.
50:15
See that's I don't mean to kill any bit, but I just don't
50:21
find it funny. It's it's psycho man. It's absolutely like psycho to go
50:27
in and think I'm gonna pee on this cat, I'm gonna pee on this
50:29
kid's toys. That is jacked up. And I cannot process the type of
50:35
person how their brain works, you know what I mean? I just can't.
50:40
Well, maybe you've never really had a really bad day in customer service?
50:45
Is that why you pete in the laundry hamper? Dan? Is that
50:46
why why when when you and Tera were living in that apartment, you decided,
50:52
you know what, he's been having a real bad dad's ters a blouse
50:59
and and my workout short something, just go ahead and just ruin our stuff.
51:04
Is that how it worked? Dan? It was the dirty clothes hamper.
51:07
It's not like she was still wearing the things. So it's okay for
51:09
you for you to, you know, just kind of just let it rip
51:14
into your own dirty clothes hamper because you were having a bad day. Were
51:15
you having a bad day then, Dan, I don't remember if it was
51:19
a bad day or not. Tell me this. On this bad day that
51:22
you had where you couldn't get into the gym and Tara got into a sin
51:28
i ahole like yelled at her road rage dat her, And you go to
51:31
one restaurant and they don't serve you, and you go to another restaurant and
51:35
they serve you, but it's an hour and all that you was asking for
51:37
was a couple of leaves of spinach and a little bit of chicken on that
51:40
