  Speaker 1: Everybody!
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: The first part of our doubleheader. I'll tell you one thing.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Was I hyper last night?
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: For those that watch it and those that will watch it,
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: I'm Morgan Roth, Motor City Mad Mouse, here on the
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Motor City Mad Mouse show with my incredible crew. We
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: have Jennifer Orsbull, my PR person out in L.A. Great
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: to have a PR person out in L.A. That's where
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: all the action is anyways, right? I like to think
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: she's in a great place. And we got SB, who's
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: going to be writing the foreword for my next book.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: And we have Ed, who watches me go. He hangs
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: on just about every show, and he's got new stories
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: for every last one of them. And Candy gets the
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: end result. I wonder how many hours of sleep he's
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: going to get. Can I count them on my hands?
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: And she probably figures, yeah, I only need one hand
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: to count your hours of sleep anyway. All right, well,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: let's get to a busy agenda. Sports Exchange are planning
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: to be on there around 9. We'll do everything in
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: our power to make sure we get to that on time.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: But we have a lot of business to get to
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: as well. Let's get to it. The United States government
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: just bailed out Argentina's government with $ 20 billion lifeline to
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: stop the country from a financial crisis during America's government
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: shutdown and an unexpected move, obviously. The bailout was actually
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: designed to stabilize Argentina's collapsing economy. Even as America faces
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: its own government shutdown, the lifeline comes after Argentina's inflation
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: rate hit 270%, pushing the country to the brink of
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: financial disaster. Okay, Jen, we'll lead off with you. The
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: order I'm going to go in is the order that
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: you see on the screen. Jen, you can lead off.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: Well, I think that we, the taxpayers, need our money back,
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: for one, to support another country when our own people
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: are not able to even access the funds that they
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: need to get their food. I think it's a little
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: bit of a problem to even access the funds to
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: be able to support their family, pay their mortgage. you know,
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: things like that. There are, there are certain occasions when
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: something might come up and that's how this was presented.
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: But then as we unravel it all the way through,
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: it's really not going to make the country stable. It
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: had all these other conditions and it's, it's a failure.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: It's give us our money back. I think it's a
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: bad deal all the way around and I don't think
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: that we should do it. Um, I think that, um,
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: You know, it's all the success is contingent on the
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: success of, I don't even know how to say his name,
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: but Malay. And so, no, give us our money back.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: That's a lot of money.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Steve?
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I completely agree with Jennifer here. Look, I mean,
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: I'm all about helping out our allies and partners around,
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: especially in, you know, the Western Hemisphere here.
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: But are we really doing them a big favor here?
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: And I wish somebody would bail us out once in
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: a while. Right. I'm not I'm not a big fan
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: of this. This move. I'm not.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Ready. Well, you know, I'd like to go against the
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: majority here, but I really can't because it's I mean,
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: it's kind of an over.
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: I mean.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: To both their points, it's nice to help out, but
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: when your own house is in disarray and it's going
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: down the tank, and to be honest with you, nobody's
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: coming to save us.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: If it needs to be.
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: Exactly.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: If the markets implode, we're on our own, period. To
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Steve's point, yes. I'm about helping out allies, friends of
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: ours around the world. Be in that country, but If
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: our own house, to Jen's point, we've got people who
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: can't afford food, utilities, people don't have jobs. So, I mean,
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: you can't– if this is about America first, the point
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: of phrase, that's not America first. So, no, bad move.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, the other thing about being America first is
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: one of the, one of the things is that it
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: allowed the soybeans to like, they, you know, Argentina reduced
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: the price of their soybeans and screwed over our American farmers.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: So our money basically went to go help screw over
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: our own farmers. Sorry, Candy, go.
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: Ahead. Farmers are near and dear to my heart. My
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: grandmother was a farmer for years and she grew soybeans
• 5:05
  Speaker 7: and all that. So, Yeah, give us back our money.
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: Plain and simple.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not too crazy about it either. You have
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: your limits, we're crying out loud, just because we have
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: a show called No Limits. That's great, which is our
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: travel show. It doesn't mean that we don't have limits here.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: I can call Vinny Goombats from the North End and
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: go get our money back with some interest.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, it really looks like it's to boost up
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: political cronies and not... not really to benefit the country overall.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: Cause it's not, it doesn't stabilize the country. It's a,
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: it's like a, a bandaid at best and a temporary bandaid,
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: not even one that's going to last for a while.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: And you know, we, we have to start taking care
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: of ourselves and we have to start holding our politicians
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: that do things like this. I think, I think, The
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: politician that's involved with the fraud needs to pay the
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: price of the fraud. And I think that it's coming
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: about more and more and more and more. And I
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: think we've really got to start holding these politicians' feet
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: to the fire. They can't just go loose. They're out
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: there just doing whatever they want with other people's money.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: And it's bad. It's bad for us. They don't care.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Anybody else? Let the craziness continue because I'll tell you what,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: it will now. I'm going to name off the states
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: that gained independence from the United Kingdom. And it's not
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: more than just the United States people. The U.S. did
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: on July 4th, 1976. But let's go around the corner here. Okay.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: If India gained independence from the U.K. in 1947. Pakistan,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: August 14th, 1947. 1947 hits twice. South Africa. South Africa.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: May 31st, 1910, Iraq. October 3rd, 1932, Israel. Yes, they're
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: getting independence from everybody, for crying out loud. But May 14th, 1948, Nigeria.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: October 1st, 1960, Ghana. We're going to have a little
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: interesting tidbit on them in the World Cup in a
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: few weeks. I'll give you a clue there. I don't
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: get many, but I will in this case. Ghana, March 6th, 1957, Malaysia.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: August 31st, 1957. Canada, Donald Trump's favorite place, July 1st, 1867.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: And did I mean it? Yeah, I mean, I have
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: no choice. I do spend a lot of time researching,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: that's for sure. Jamaica, August 6th, 1962, the year I
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: was born. Kenya, December 12th, 1963. UAE, I think, United
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Arab Emigrants, I think that's what it stands for. December 2nd, 1971,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: even older. Candy was alive then. She came a little
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: bit before then. So Zimbabwe, April 18th, 1980. Singapore, August 31st, 1963.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: And Ireland, December 6th, 1941. I'm going to break this down.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Give me two or three that stand out. We'll start
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: off with you, Jen.
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: What am I standing out for?
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: All the ones that gained independence.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Or however you want to answer it. I don't care.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: I don't think I know what I'm supposed to be answering.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Go ahead and go to somebody else.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: You know what? Take the lead and then we'll double
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: back to Jen.
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: I'll pick up Jen's slack here for a second.
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: The one that sticks out for me, and right now
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: it's a hot button issue in the United States, and
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: that's Israel. And Israel is what? It's the only democratic
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: country in the Middle East. But yet so many people
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: in this country want us to wash our hands of Israel.
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: Well, I've been there. I've been to the other side of.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: Israel where all the problems are right now. And I'm
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: here to tell you they're not the problem. So that's
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: just my two cents on that since I'm being contrarian tonight.
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: But the other one that stands out, Ireland, right?
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: They had so many problems with the UK, but now
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: they're their own country.
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: And, of course, South Africa. Been there. Great place. Well,
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: it was. I don't know if it still is. It's
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: been a few years.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: And right now, I'm not really hype on Canada. I
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: know you love Canada, Scott.
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: You live up on the border.
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: But, you know, being a hockey fan, and I'll tell you,
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: They boo our national anthem for the past 25 years
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: at hockey games.
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: So I'm not too hype on them right now.
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: And that was long, before Trump came along.
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: This has been like over 25 years.
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: When we have a playoff hockey game up there, they
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: boo our national anthem.
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: And I don't like that.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Well, you know something? I got to get involved before
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: I turn it over to Ed and Jen. I actually... ripped,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I mean ripped, when I wrote an article for the
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Detroit Sports Broadcasters Association and blasted Canada for booing the
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: national anthem. You know what happened to me after that?
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: I got more death threats than politicians tell lies over that.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: I had to answer all those emails. And I'll tell you,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: the editor of that site had to take it off
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: because he thought I was going to get killed. If
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: you Google my name, you'll still... It didn't help when
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: I called Montreal people the Montreal morons either. Well, all right.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: So hold on. Hear me out. But, you know, I
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: call them the Montreal morons. And then I wrote another
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: story behind it. And I'm talking to you people, though.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: So let's not get too crazy. Our national anthem here
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: in the USA is No, no, no, no. You cannot
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: do that. Don't do it. I wouldn't do it. And
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: I got news for you.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: So.
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: No, in fact, when I was at playoff game, Stanley
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: Cup final playoff game.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: And I sang along with the Canadian national anthem. Now
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: that was in Boston, you know, and but they boo ours.
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: So, no.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: So I'm with you.
• 11:47
  Speaker 6: I'm with you.
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: And that was long, long before Trump was president.
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: He wasn't even in politics back then.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Well, listen, I nearly got killed over this. Luckily, I'm
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: buried in South Florida where you can't find anybody anyway. So, yeah, no,
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just telling you, I nearly got killed
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: over this. I mean, forget about Donald Trump. I like
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: to kick him around anyhow. And I'll tell you a
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: story about him. Many years ago, I actually met Donald
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Trump in Tampa and when he owned the New Jersey
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Generals of the United States Football League.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: I remember that. And I'll tell you one thing. What
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: was interesting about the whole thing is he invited me
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: and a few other reporters up there. We talked to them.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I had no problem with the guy. Of course, no
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: one I ever know, he'd become the future president of
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: the United States.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: So do the Canadians have a bounty on your head, Scott?
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: What's that?
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: So they have like a $ 5 bounty on your head?
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: No, there's a lot more than that back then.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: Maybe $ 10.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like I said, I have more lives than Morris did,
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: and he stopped.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: At $ 9.
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: There you go.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, if I'm bringing up Morris on here,
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: I'm bringing up Morris. You know, I can hashtag these things.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: I mean, Canada has long lived under the protection of
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: the United States.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Long, long, long.
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: And they get to have generic drugs for much cheaper
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: because we pay for the R & D and take
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: on the whole brunt of everything. There's a lot of
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: benefits that Canada gets, though, calling them independent. I don't
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: think they... They live under our protection and then they
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: badger us galore. That's why they wear that big leaf
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: on their back when they travel so that they don't
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: get mixed up or confused for, you know, U.S. Americans.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: And I think that it's disingenuous and I think that
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: it's terrible. I have friends that live there who are
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: very kind, but I, you know, as an overall, you know.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: It's kind of very interesting. I actually work for a
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: Canadian based company. So they're my corporate head and it's all,
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: you know, it's all with the exception of, you know,
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: there's probably 20 of us from the States and the
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: rest are out of a 70 person company. So it's
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: a 50, 20 split. And it's interesting because I'm on
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: the management team and I'm only, I'm the only American
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: on the management team. But to your point, Jennifer, they're very,
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: I have, I have, I have no problems with the Canadians.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: You know, they've always been very nice to me. They're
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: very cordial, but you know, Anywhere you're going to find
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: those bad apples that are going to boo. I would,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: you know, they're going to boo the national anthem. They're
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: going to, you know, Philadelphia, they throw snowballs with rocks.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, yeah, it's wrong.
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: That's Santa Claus.
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's like off limits right there.
• 14:42
  Speaker 6: Right. You can't.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: No, no, that's, that's, that's, that's like, yeah, that's yeah.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: But if you, if you're familiar with Philadelphia fans, that's,
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: That's just, that's right there. I mean, they used to,
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: they used to have in the vet stadium, they had a,
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: they had a jail in the basement. So they would
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: round people up from the 700 level and take them
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: down there to hold them and play after the game.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: And then they would preside. Yeah.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: There. Yeah.
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: I actually went to an Eagles game.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: In Philly.
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: And, and I went with a friend of mine and
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: he begged me, Don't wear anything that says Patriots on it.
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: And of course, I don't.
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: I mean, when I go to a football game, I
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: just go, you know, whatever. But I was at the
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: game sitting with this friend of mine. And there was
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: a guy and his son about three rows in front
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: of us wearing redskins like Washington Redskins back then, like jackets.
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: Because the Eagles were actually playing the Redskins. And my
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: buddy said, pull your collar up. And all game long,
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: we were pelted with pizza, hot dogs coming from way high,
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: you know, empties. They would come raining down on us
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: all game long because, you know, when they're throwing it
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: from the cheap seats, their aim isn't always.
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: That great from way up there. And pizza doesn't. It's
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: not very. aerodynamics, so it's going to go all over
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: the place.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you, I've been to Veterans Stadium too.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: I was at Veterans Stadium hanging out with the fans
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: one time. I got smarter. You know what I did
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: the next time I went there? I got a press
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: credential with the Detroit Lions and stayed away from those people.
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: That's the smart one.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that is the smart one.
• 16:40
  Speaker 6: But you know what?
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: I've sat with Eagles fans in New England and they
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: were great.
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: I mean, it's I mean, it's, it is what it is.
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: You know, you're going to get a mixed bag, but yeah.
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: I remember that though.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: There's a culture of what's accepted and what's not in
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: the different areas. Like I'm going to bring it down
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: to college ball. Cause like I went to Oregon to
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: the ducks game and had the worst treatment as the
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: UCLA Bruin, just because we were the opposing team, which
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: is fine for heckling.
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: I don't mind.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: Like, you know what I mean? I like game banter
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: and stuff like that. I think it's fine. But to
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: be downright rude is weird because it's gamemanship. And opposing that,
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: I went to University of Texas. And we, as a Bruin,
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: and I was all by myself, the only blue in
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: a sea of, you know, that burnt orange. Those fans
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: stood the entire game and we slaughtered them. they were
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: on like a fourth string red card freshmen. You know
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: what I mean? Like crazy, you know, whatever was happening
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: in their dynamics. And they still were like, thank you
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: so much for coming. You know, welcome to our stadium.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: We're so happy you're here. We hope you're having a
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: good time. Do you need any? And I was like
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: the night and day of the ducks to, to the Longhorns.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, you know what? There's a lot of
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: respect I have for UT and, And way less, though,
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: for Oregon.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: So let me add two more of these countries. I'll
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: go back to Eddie Candy. We have a lot more
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: to get to. I love that conversation. That's why this
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: group is in the eyes of Jimmy Walker.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: Dynamite!
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Oh, there you go. But I wasn't as energetic as
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: last night. Trust me, that's the one for the ages.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: I think the one that kind of stands out a
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: little bit was Iraq. The reason why I say Iraq
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: is when Candy and I went to London, there were
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: a lot of those types of people that were in
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: the first hotel that we were in. so you can
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: see that one a little bit. And Ghana, well, I
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: don't know where that's at, but I know I've heard
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: a lot of interesting things about the place, so we'll
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: leave it at that.
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: Never been there.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: No, I haven't either, but I'll tell you, I have
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: an interesting stat I'll bring on in a few weeks
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: about there.
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: I've been to Uganda, I've been to Senegal, been to
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: South Africa, but haven't been to Ghana.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'll go.
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: Ahead and It's not on my list of places to go,
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: I'll say that.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Mine either, but I'll tell you the topic I'm going
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: to hit you guys with in a few weeks will
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: definitely have your head scratching like they all do on
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: this show anyways. But anyways, go ahead, Eddie, anything else
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: you want to add?
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: No, it's just kind of impressive. You were talking about
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: these countries that England.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: I'll say had rule over and they, you know, they're not,
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: you weren't saying the 1700s, you weren't saying the 1800s,
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: you were saying 1940, 1920 this, 1940, I think Pakistan
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: and Israel were in the 40s and so on. So
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: I think that's kind of impressive with the number of
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: countries that they had up until. really, you know, recent time.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: My second thought was, you know, my roots being from
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: Ireland and stuff like that, them, you know, having control
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: over Ireland and, you know, Ireland still, it's not as
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: bad as it used to be in the 70s and 80s,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: but now it's There's still Northern Ireland and Southern Ireland,
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: the Catholics versus the Protestants, the orange wearing the green.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: That's always kind of an interesting thing where the North
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: still more have that English vibe to it, if you will.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: If I had to pick one, that's kind of where
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: I would lean.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Candy.
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's kind of interesting how I guess I didn't
• 20:38
  Speaker 7: realize that they had such a stronghold over these countries
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: for as late as they did. Like you said, Eddie,
• 20:46
  Speaker 7: I can't believe. And honestly, if you look at some
• 20:52
  Speaker 7: of them even still, there's 14 sovereign countries plus the
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: United Kingdom that are known as the Commonwealth realms. King
• 21:02
  Speaker 7: Charles III serves as king and head of state. And
• 21:06
  Speaker 7: it still includes the Bahamas and Jamaica and New Zealand.
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: And I'm like, that just amazes me. This is very educational, Scott.
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the British ruled the world because they ruled the
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: oceans for a couple of hundred years.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: All right, well, guess what? We're rolling on to the
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: next one here. And I'll tell you, everybody's going to
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: laugh their tail off of this one. I haven't seen
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: anybody that doesn't. But let's have some fun with it.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: I only have another 10 or 12 more topics to
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: get to, but we'll get them as many as we can.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: I like to keep it real, especially with this group,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: because you guys have an unbelievable opinion. And I have
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: to see what it goes showing to see which one
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: I can pull out of my pocket. And I know
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: that I'm pulling this one out right now. An 85-year-old
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: man was arrested for street racing. And I repeat, street racing.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: And was just showing his car. in Lake County, Florida.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: His name is William Bob Worthy. He went 110 miles
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: an hour in a 45-mile-an-hour zone on June 12, 2026.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: This man still got it.
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: Jan? I mean, you know, 110 in a 45, who
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: else was around? Otherwise, if no one else is around
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: and he can get away with it, like, you know,
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: I don't want to, like, you know, Advocate for 110
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: in a 45. I do think that's at least twice
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: as much as you should go. But he's 85 years
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: old and he's still street racing. I kind of think
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: that there's a little bit of street cred just in that.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: You're alone. My grandpa.
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Funny story. And by the way, Scott, I love this story,
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: by the way. You know, the 85-year-old guy drag racing.
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: I absolutely love it. I'll give you a funny story.
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: I knew a little old lady that had a hot
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: rod bird up in the Washington DC area. And she
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: was always drag racing, um, guys for pink slips. And
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: her husband was a retired DC detective. And these young
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: kids would come to the house and they were like, uh,
• 23:23
  Speaker 5: Can I.
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: Talk to the little old lady that lives here?
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: Because they're handing this guy their keys. And he would.
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: Be like, get the hell out of here, you know?
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: And he started yelling at his wife.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Have you tried racing again?
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: And she's like, I can't help it.
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: When I get up to the stoplight, these kids with
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: these young cars, they don't know how to drive.
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: You know, all this. And she never lost. Okay.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: Great stuff. Don't worry.
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: He had to take away the T-Bird.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: The only thing that happened with this guy.
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: And she was a great grandma.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Here's the only thing that happened. Smokey caught the bandit,
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: but this bandit's 85 years old. Burt Reynolds. There you go.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: All right. Turn it over to Eddie.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: Oh, I mean, age is nothing but a number, and
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: it's less than– how fast was he going? 145 or whatever?
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: 110. 110.
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's reckless by any stretch of the imagination. But, no,
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, good for him. Did you see what kind
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: of car he was driving? Was it some kind of–
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: did he have like a 457 in there?
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: Nope.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Dave Blanc.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: Well, dude, listen.
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: I've got that for you.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: Go ahead. I'm done.
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: Go ahead.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: Let's hear what he was driving.
• 24:47
  Speaker 7: So it was 1140 p.m. on June 12th near, it was, yeah,
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: in Lake County, Florida, Leedsburg. The drivers were 85-year-old William.
• 25:00
  Speaker 7: He was driving a Nissan 350Z, and he was driving with,
• 25:06
  Speaker 7: the other person in the other car was a 57-year-old Phillip,
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: driving a Chevrolet Corvette. Deputies used the radar to clock
• 25:17
  Speaker 7: the Corvette at 125 miles per hour and the Nissan
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: at 110 in the posted 45 mile an hour zone. Now,
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: when he pulled 85-year-old, he denied he was street racing. Instead,
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: he claimed he was just out having a little ride
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: in my favorite car while smoking a cigarilla.
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: He's no dummy. I love that.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: More on the way, people. We're just getting started.
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: And we know in Florida, that's not an uncommon thing,
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: by the way. I mean, you know, it's on the
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: news every day that somebody is, you know, caught drag racing,
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: especially out here in southwest Florida, because we have Alligator Alley,
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: which is like a straightaway with no exits for like, what,
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: 30-something miles?
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I love that.
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: They're always catching people doing that.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: I like that 975 by O'Callaghan. I hope no cops
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: are watching this.
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Otherwise, I'm in deep trouble. All right. We'll start with
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: this one because it only gets crazier. And I'm going
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: to tell you why it gets crazier. Because a 13-year-old
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: sells his peg. And I repeat, peg people. Okay. For
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: a world record $ 505, 000. 2026 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: Burrow.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: So let me go over this because this is fun.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: I couldn't believe when I was reading this thing. A
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: 13-year-old sells a pig. P-I-G. Don't they used to play
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: that in basketball too once in a while in a
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: game called Pig? Well, this is worth a heck of
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: a lot more than those games at $ 505, 000, winning a
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: world record. Anyway, but yeah, 2026 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: Landry Mabry sold a grand champion junior market barrel. How
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: we doing, John? I love your smile. I like the
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: topic so far.
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: I love Houston Rodeo. I love everything about, I love rodeo,
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: but I love the Houston Rodeo. It's, it's an extravaganza
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: of an event. And I mean, he sold his pig
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: for half a mil at age 13.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: Bad start to life.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: I'll vote for him for president, by the way.
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you guys have been to the rodeo,
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: but one of the great, I mean, it is fun
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: to see the teenagers, but it's even more fun to
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: see the toddlers, the kids that they do the mutton
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: busting things. And they tie these kids to the back
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: of a sheep and the sheep, they fall off the
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: sides and they're the funniest thing you've ever seen in
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: your lifetime. I don't know. They're training for bareback fucking
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: Broncos and bull riding is my guess, but they're getting
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: started on little lambs. And it, it, it's just the hoot.
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: That's awesome. That's good for that kid.
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: I mean, and I have been to, I've been to
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: the bull riding rodeo. In fact, a friend of mine,
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: he got us tickets right at the shoot.
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: Where they come.
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: And I mean, I have to tip the cap to
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: those young men and they're not big guys who ride
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: the bulls.
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: They're usually on the smaller side.
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: And when you see how big and ticked off those
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: bulls are, When they come out of that, I was.
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: Like, they don't make enough money. Those guys are awesome.
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: It is so dangerous and so scary, and they aren't big,
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: but their balls are huge.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: That took an unexpected turn.
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 29:00
  Speaker 6: I'm not going to leave that part out, but it's
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: very true.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Hey, listen, now that she went ahead and mentioned balls,
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: wait till I come up with a topic in Canada
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: that's going to require something on the other side. Don't worry.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: I'm coming up with it. I'm not mentioning it. I've
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: given you more than I wanted to. All right. So,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: all right, Steve, you get it out of there or
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: who's next?
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: I'm up. And I think I've never been to a rodeo.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: I've seen, you know, I watched it on TV. Occasionally,
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: not my, you know, Being a Northern Virginian, a city kid,
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: more or less, or a suburb kid, was not really.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Exposed to it that much growing up. There has to
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: be a tad bit of insanity to get on those bulls.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: Even those ones who do the calf roping, they have
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: to ride the horse, they have to jump off the horse,
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: they have to tackle the calf. You know, I'm not
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: even sure the, you know, isn't the, they have rodeo clowns, right?
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: And those are the rodeo clowns.
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: Responsible for getting the bull to come chase them so
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: they don't chase the guy who just fell off. So,
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not sure what's nuttier, the guy who's
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: riding it or the guy who's dressed up or a
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: girl dressed up like a clown saying, hey, come follow me.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: And they're jumping into barrels. I mean, I don't know.
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: Don't think you could pay me enough, but that's just me.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Katie, go ahead.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: Have I been to a rodeo?
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: Yes, I have.
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: Um, I don't know. It was a true rodeo, but
• 30:38
  Speaker 7: it was a rodeo. Um, they can be fun. Um,
• 30:42
  Speaker 7: I do have a girlfriend down here who rides that
• 30:49
  Speaker 7: has horses that rides and does barrel racing. So it's
• 30:52
  Speaker 7: a little different though. Um, but you could see those
• 30:55
  Speaker 7: at a rodeo too. Um, But I will be honest
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: with you. She tells me all the time how she
• 31:01
  Speaker 7: gets injured by her horses. Yeah. In fact, she just
• 31:07
  Speaker 7: got hurt this last weekend. They kicked her so bad,
• 31:11
  Speaker 7: she can barely walk. They hind-kicked her leg. So you've
• 31:19
  Speaker 7: got to be careful. But it can be quite exciting, though, too.
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: My daughter works, my daughter works with horses and she got,
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: she's gotten stepped, her foot stepped on and, you know, yeah, not,
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: you know, it's, it's, yeah. And my, and my daughter's not, my,
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: my daughter's like only about five, two and she's like
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: doing these, but she just, she loves, I mean, she'd rather,
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: she'd probably rather die than not work with the horses.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: But I mean, it's, she's like, yeah, you gotta, I
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: can barely walk. And she goes, but I'll be in tomorrow.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: So it's just, she just, the horse, she just, you know, it's,
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: It's a passion for working with the animals. Rodeo, horse riding,
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: working animals and stuff like that. It's just a way
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: of life. Anyway, sorry, Scott, go ahead.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: I want to know how.
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: Big that pig was that it was worth $ 500, 000 or
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: what made it worth $ 500, 000 compared to the other pigs.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: Well, because he's as good a salesman as Mario Cristobal
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: in the Miami Hurricanes.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: A lot of bacon is all I think.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of bacon.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: I had, I had to get the Mario Cristobal in there.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: I was looking for, and this kid salesman at 13
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: years old.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: Well, I was actually thinking about that little clip you
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: played the FIU clip about him last night. That's good stuff.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: I mean, good stuff. That's a teaser for anybody who
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: hasn't watched the show to go see what that clip's about.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: There's a reason why that's called a T that's a cut.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: That's a teaser, Scott.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, I know.
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: Exactly what it is.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you ever heard of a Segway?
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's one of those things that you ride with
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: two wheels, right?
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, a Segway. Well, here's what happened, Eddie. You
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: just gave me a Segway about something that talked about horses.
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to get to this one before I
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: get to some rapid fire questions, okay? There'll be a
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: couple of rapid fire where we can talk as long
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: as we want, but I want to get to as many.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: Some of them are basic, straightforward. But not this one. Okay.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: Hold your horses, people. Because a Florida woman rides her
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: horse through a car wash. Gave him a bath. Her
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: name is Darla Hutchins, 34. I don't know what she
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: thought she was going to do with the windshield wiper.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: It's called the eye. But oh, my gosh. A Florida
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: woman rides her horse through a car wash. I feel
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: bad for Mr.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Ed.
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: But give him a bath. Darla Hutchins, that's the only
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: horse I know that I can remember. All right, Jen.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: I mean, I've seen the picture of the coyotes where
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: they're going up and they're getting the bristles that are
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: scratching their back and stuff. I kind of get it,
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: you know, but like, I don't know what kind of
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: chemicals they're putting in all those car washes for the
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: outside of my car. I don't think I would want
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: that on myself, let alone on my horse, you know,
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: like certainly not, you know, I, I'm going to go
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: with no. I don't think that that should be done.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know what they're going to do for the
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: eyes when they try to keep the water and the
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: suds out of them. Because they don't put windshield wipers
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: on horses.
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: Right? I just think that's kind of an animal abuse
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: a little bit.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: Don't tell that woman. She's 34 years old and there's
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: 12 commandments. Thou shall not get caught and thou shall
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: not overspend. Moses didn't come up with those back in
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: the day, but I'm giving you a couple straight here
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: on the net.
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: I mean, if it's a great one, I kind of
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: get it. But if it's the one you drive through.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't, you know, I don't buy this one.
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: That's that's animal abuse. You know, taking a horse through
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: the damn car wash. I mean, what are you going
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: to do when the bristles come down on his head?
• 35:06
  Speaker 6: You know?
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: Or those like, I don't know, they look like carpet
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: strips that go side to side over.
• 35:16
  Speaker 6: I mean, no, no, that's not, that's not a good one.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm not saying it's ethical. It's information. It's what
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: this show is about.
• 35:27
  Speaker 6: Well, it's Florida though.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: It's Florida.
• 35:29
  Speaker 6: So, you know, nothing surprises me down here.
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, I thought you were going to
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: say the pig Montrose of car wash, too.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: No, I like the $ 505, 000 on the pig and then
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: the horse going through the horse walk. Because here's what happens, okay,
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: when they talk about cars. You know what they do?
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: They call it horse power. Never mind. Horse power. I understand. Yeah,
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: it's just a one-liner. I mean, it's probably one of
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: the worst ones I've had.
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: In a while, but that's okay.
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: Crucify me when I called the Canadian Montreal morons. And
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: at least I have a good insurance life insurance policy
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: on that young lady to my bottom right. I didn't
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: have anything back then. So I'm worth a little something
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: when I'm dead. But anyways, go ahead. Anybody else want
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: to add to this?
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: That's insane. And now I can see if it was
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: one of those car wash things where it's like a,
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: like a carport. You take your car and you got
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: a little hose, you hose the horse down. You give
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: it a nice little brush, kind of cover the eyes.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: You hose it down. Like you do like, where my
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: daughters worked and ridden. They hooked the horse up and
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: they hose it down on a hot summer day after
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: it's been out in the field or whatever. I could
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: see that, but to Steve and Jennifer's point, I think
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: the animal society would be coming out having some issues
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: with that. You'd have PETA knocking on the door. I
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: don't think they allow that. horses.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: I'll follow Steve because he's 100% right. It is animal cruelty.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: I don't like it. But as a journalist, it's my
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: job to report it.
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: Right, Steve?
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: You know that thing. We have to report it. Amen
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: to the journalism world and for all those people that
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: don't like us, it's our job to report it. All right, Katie,
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: go ahead.
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: You know, there's so many risks involved with that. Like
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: the pressure washer. could be damaging and cause skin bruising,
• 37:35
  Speaker 7: like injuries. The harsh chemicals that they use and the
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: waxes can strip the natural oils from the animal's coat
• 37:45
  Speaker 7: and irritate their skin or eyes. Not only that, but
• 37:49
  Speaker 7: what about sudden loud noises? I mean, if you think
• 37:53
  Speaker 7: about it, a horse could really injure themselves if they
• 37:58
  Speaker 7: started to get irritated. And then they start, like, bucking,
• 38:01
  Speaker 7: and they could really do some damage.
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 38:05
  Speaker 7: I mean, that is really animal cruelty to the nth degree. Like,
• 38:12
  Speaker 7: no place for that.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, you know, we're going to put her in a
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: Russian penal colony. That's good enough. That's plenty of punishment. Hey,
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: if Brittany Griner got her, we'll just trade her and
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: just get rid of her. But, you know, the horse
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: could stay. Maybe we'll just take it over to Louisville.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: In the Kentucky area where it's a bluegrass state because
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: the island knows the bristles that got hit right there
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: and that. All right, I'm done with this topic. And
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: I'm going to make sure that everybody learns something. This
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: might be a rapid fire deal. So I'll let you
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: roll with it. But there's a lot more great stuff
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: on the way. The countries that are featured top of
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: the night, by the way, is the countries that invented
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: the modern world. And we'll start with this. The United
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: States obviously invented the smartphone. I'll read them all and
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: tell me one or two that stand out. We'll keep
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: moving on. Smartphone, United States. ATM, United Kingdom. Digital camera,
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: United States. Tax messaging, United Kingdom. World Wide Web, Switzerland. Radio, Italy.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: Search engine, Canada. Okay, well, they had to get their
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: deal due in. Bluetooth, Sweden. We'll be going there later
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: on next year. QR code Japan. Oh, well, I guess
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: what we have one up there. So thanks Japan for that. Okay. Wi-Fi, Australia, telephone,
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: United States. Ever heard of Alexander Graham Bell? I think
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: that's what his name was.
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: Touchscreen, United Kingdom, GPS, United States. And that is that. Okay.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: Just let's go rapid fire on this one. Jan, which
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: one stand out for you?
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, to me, what I hear is that innovation
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: goes on all around the world and brilliance can happen anywhere.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: So get your ideas and start filling them out, you know,
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: like make your innovation come true because you can change
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: the world. It doesn't matter where you originated from.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: OK, Steve.
• 40:03
  Speaker 5: Well, here's a good one for you, Scott, because I
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: know you're into Norway. The guys who invented Bluetooth and
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: the symbol of that. is for Harold Bluetooth, who was
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: one of the last Viking kings of Norway. So there's
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: a little Norwegian tidbit for you.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: I learn something new every time I'm on this show. Yeah.
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: And the digital camera was actually invented by the CIA.
• 40:37
  Speaker 6: Oh, really?
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: Really.
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: They called it a filmless camera. Really?
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: Back in the Get Smart days, huh?
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: Exactly, or Go Go Gadget.
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: There you go. Good stuff.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: So what was that guy's name again?
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: Harold Bluth. King Harold the Bluth.
• 40:59
  Speaker 6: He had one tooth that turned blue.
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: And that was his nickname. But he was one of
• 41:05
  Speaker 5: the last kings of Norway.
• 41:07
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: So Harold Bluetooth.
• 41:10
  Speaker 6: Harold Bluetooth. That's who they named that after.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm always intrigued with this. That's the only thing
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: about this show. We process information. Process, depending on what
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: side of the border you're on.
• 41:21
  Speaker 6: I'm a veritable font of useless information.
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: Information, exactly.
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, there's a lot of useless information.
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: Not tonight, though, Steve. That's a good Bluetooth. I mean,
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: that's a part. That's like the party's dead. And you're like, hey,
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: guess what? And then you can kind of drop the Bluetooth. Bluetooth,
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: you know. And then you're the life of the party.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: So, Steve, do you classify this show as useful-less or useful?
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: Oh, it's topic.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: Steve?
• 41:56
  Speaker 6: What's that?
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: Do you classify this information as useful or useless?
• 42:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, well, hey, you know, it's like it is what
• 42:04
  Speaker 5: it is, my friend.
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: That's why we keep doing this every Wednesday.
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: It is what it is. Those of you that are
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: out there going to dinner with your, your, whoever you're
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: with yourself or somebody else come back. I guarantee you,
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: we'll give you some information.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: Or just put it on your, we.
• 42:21
  Speaker 6: Just lost the last of the sun out here.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: No, I, you.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: Know, you know, invention, you know, what did they say?
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: Necessity is the mother of the mother of invention. But no,
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: what was it? I don't know the exact number, but
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: Leonardo da Vinci, when they found his memoirs and all
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: his stuff, he had something like... I don't know. I
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: think almost everything that we have current day, we could
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: trace back to something that da Vinci had started or
• 42:52
  Speaker 3: had an idea for and just... And that's why, you know,
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: I think, Jen, you... you might've said it the last
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: time we were on the show or, or somebody said about,
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: you know, taking that, taking a shot, you know, you
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: always got, you can't be afraid of failure and you
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: can't be afraid to fail because as soon as you're
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: afraid to fail, you're going to, you're going to kind
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: of pigeonhole yourself and not be taking opportunities. And, you know,
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: I think a lot of something you said earlier, you know,
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: about the perfection kids have to know what they're doing
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: and all that stuff that they lose the, they lose the, the, um,
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: open-mindedness to go out and try something where they might fail.
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: I know, I mean, I've got two kids that are 20-somethings.
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: That are what? 20-somethings, 26 and 24. And, you know,
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: they're not trying to be perfect, but, you know, they're
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: a little bit more, you know, conservative than, let's say,
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: I would have been in some of my actions back
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: when I was a similar age. Okay. So, yeah.
• 43:52
  Speaker 4: Less reckless? Less reckless?
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, less reckless, probably. You didn't really have to go there.
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: I was just clarifying which kind of conservative they are.
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, less reckless. Less risk-taking. Yeah, risk-taking, less reckless.
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 44:13
  Speaker 4: I mean, as we talked earlier, you know, growing up
• 44:15
  Speaker 4: in the eighties and the nineties, there were, there were
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: zero consequences, right? Like we raised ourselves, we're the last
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: two kids. We never knew about consequences, but then the
• 44:23
  Speaker 4: way we parented our generation or the helicopter parents, because
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: we did the opposite way too much.
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: And that just made no sense to me. It just
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: made literally. Yes.
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: Anyway, I could go down a whole nother tangent about
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: parenting and, you know, with the, with my background that
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: I had in, It's just not fitting the mold. I
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: was just like, anyway.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 44:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: Candy.
• 44:51
  Speaker 7: You know, I mean, a lot of those things are
• 44:54
  Speaker 7: like surprising.
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 44:57
  Speaker 7: And no, I mean, you think of certain parts of
• 44:59
  Speaker 7: the world that are way ahead of like the United States,
• 45:04
  Speaker 7: but yet we're the ones that came up with some
• 45:06
  Speaker 7: of this stuff. I think sometimes it takes us a
• 45:09
  Speaker 7: little too long to develop things. you know, we might
• 45:13
  Speaker 7: like think about it and invent it. And I think
• 45:16
  Speaker 7: people have to stop being afraid of inventing things like this. Like,
• 45:21
  Speaker 7: otherwise we wouldn't have new inventions. I mean, if you
• 45:24
  Speaker 7: think about it way back in, you know, the seventies,
• 45:27
  Speaker 7: like you didn't have a microwave, you didn't have convection ovens.
• 45:31
  Speaker 7: Like the thing, how we've come, how far we've come pretty,
• 45:38
  Speaker 7: pretty impressive. I mean, You remember the days when your
• 45:40
  Speaker 7: parents would tell you, oh, yeah, I watched black and
• 45:43
  Speaker 7: white TV. We had one TV in the house. We
• 45:46
  Speaker 7: had one phone in the house. And now look at it.
• 45:49
  Speaker 7: We're all carrying a phone with us that literally has
• 45:52
  Speaker 7: how much information on it.
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: Yes, exactly.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: We'll call mini computers.
• 45:58
  Speaker 6: Exactly.
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: Let's continue.
• 45:59
  Speaker 5: You know, your cell phone has more computer storage than
• 46:05
  Speaker 5: the original lunar lander.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, don't worry. I'm dumb enough to keep paying for
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: more and more every time I upgrade my phone every
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: two years, too. All right, let's continue on. This is
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: going to be a bucket list rapid fire, okay? And
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: here's what I mean by that. Countries with the most
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: beautiful roads go, well, obviously, Steve knows me good. Norway
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: is on the list. Switzerland is on the list. New
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: Zealand is on the list. I wish you could see
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: the pictures that I look in front of me. Iceland,
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: you know, that's a favorite place of mine. I'll get
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: there one of these days again. Scotland. Only with one T. Otherwise,
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: I'd say that was named after me, too, since it
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: has one. But I have two. But I could tell
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: you other Scott stories later on. Canada. Oh, yes. How
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: many times have they come up tonight? More than a lot.
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: Don't boo my national anthem, or I'll call you Montreal Moron.
• 46:54
  Speaker 6: Italy.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: I'll get more death threats. I'm going to stop this.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Five dollars. Yeah, I can only imagine. Italy.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: And that's Canadian dollars too, by the way, Scott. That's
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: not U.S.
• 47:04
  Speaker 6: Dollars.
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: Well, don't worry. I got a great story on rubles
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: that will be coming up too. I've given you some ideas,
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: but you don't know what the topics are, so I'm
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: making a difference on that sort of teaser. Okay, Chad,
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: just give me one or two that are on your
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: bucket list because I have some more great stuff I
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: want to get to as much as I can.
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: I think there's beautiful scenery all over the world. I've
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: done a lot of third world travel. Costa Rica, Argentina,
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: even when we're not bailing them out. But I haven't
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: been anywhere. Bali, you know what I mean? I haven't
• 47:32
  Speaker 4: been anywhere that it's not beautiful driving on a random day.
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: I think that there's so much to see. Even we
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: went into the outskirts of Morocco and got to see
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: amazing things and came across.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: An abandoned castle.
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: Road trips are cool.
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they are.
• 47:54
  Speaker 5: I've been to a bunch of different places. I've driven
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: on some absolutely gorgeous roads. Actually, one of my favorites
• 48:06
  Speaker 5: wasn't on your list, Scott. In my Harley riding days,
• 48:09
  Speaker 5: because I rode a Harley for 30-something years, was Pacific
• 48:13
  Speaker 5: Coast Highway up to Santa Barbara.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you, I've been on that one.
• 48:19
  Speaker 6: That is a beautiful ride right there.
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you, I went from san francisco and i
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: got a ticket to la well i didn't get a
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: ticket on that i was forced to drive slow because
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: of rags wine.
• 48:31
  Speaker 6: Well i got a ticket on the way back you
• 48:33
  Speaker 6: know oh okay california state trooper had.
• 48:36
  Speaker 8: No sense of humor whatsoever not a lot well don't
• 48:40
  Speaker 8: worry they're not much better out in montana when you're
• 48:42
  Speaker 8: blowing through broad as montana didn't like me either but
• 48:46
  Speaker 8: i found a way to get out of jail because
• 48:48
  Speaker 8: i said you guys got to Label your roads better.
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: And they said, keep your mouth shut. You don't want
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: me in here. I'll be the loudest prisoner you've ever had.
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: Let me get the hell out of here. Let me
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: go to Yellowstone instead. He said, all right, get the
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: hell out of here. It is the exact word.
• 49:00
  Speaker 6: Get out.
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: And he said the word hell, too, by the way.
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: No problem. I shook his hand. See you. And then
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: I bolted out as fast as I went in. Just
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: to get out of there. Because the Montanans don't like me. Broadus, Montana.
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: Stay away from there. But no, Pacific Ocean was good.
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: All right, go ahead, Eddie. Pick it up.
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they're all, you know, all of them
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: sound excellent. You know, even, you know, we went to
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: Hawaii on our honeymoon years ago and, you know, driving
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: on Maui is gorgeous. Heck, you know, I live right
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: on the outskirts of Virginia, a horse country. You know,
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: I'm a you know, just down the road and I
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: can be into where, you know, it's horses farm and
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: Manassas battlefields and it's gorgeous. So it's really, you know,
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: I think there's, if, if you open your eyes and
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: you kind of look around, there's a lot of really
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: nice places here in the States. If you know through
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: the country roads of Southwestern Virginia out through Tennessee, when
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: you get to some of the plain States, you know,
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: it's just, it's just peaceful. You know, and because I think,
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: you know, our country doesn't necessarily have some of the
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: that kind of tropical beauty like, you know, Jen was
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: talking about, you know, Bali, you know, like even Argentina,
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: the coast of Argentina, Costa Rica and stuff like that.
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: But I think there's if you pay even up, even
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: up north, you know, into the New England, especially during
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: the fall season when the trees are changing, you know, it's,
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: you know, I think a lot of times it depends
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: on when When and where you go.
• 50:35
  Speaker 4: Absolutely.
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Candy. Don't forget the road to Hana is
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: pretty good out in Maui.
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. The road to Hana. Yeah.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: I love that place. Sorry, Candy.
• 50:46
  Speaker 5: Mangus Highway in New Hampshire during foliage season, too.
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, if you go to Magic Mountain in Londonderry, Vermont,
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: don't do what I did on December 25th, 1989. Don't
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: get busted up in a ski accident the same way
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: Billy Martin died. But that's when I know that I
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: got hurt. Go ahead, Candy.
• 51:08
  Speaker 7: I would say there are a lot of different roads
• 51:11
  Speaker 7: that are very beautiful. Scott, I remember one of the
• 51:15
  Speaker 7: trips we took, because we like to road trip, and
• 51:19
  Speaker 7: we did a trip from Michigan on the Upper Peninsula
• 51:23
  Speaker 7: through to Wisconsin. And there's some beautiful roads and scenery there.
• 51:28
  Speaker 7: And here's what I'm going to say. It's It's beautiful
• 51:33
  Speaker 7: in more than one season. So some of these places,
• 51:36
  Speaker 7: it's the same no matter the season, but some of
• 51:39
  Speaker 7: these roads, like that, the upper peninsula, it's beautiful in
• 51:43
  Speaker 7: spring because it has different flowers, beautiful in summer, beautiful
• 51:48
  Speaker 7: in fall, different foliage. And for those that have never
• 51:52
  Speaker 7: seen like a first white snowfall, it's beautiful like then too.
• 51:57
  Speaker 7: as long as it's not the end of the season and,
• 52:00
  Speaker 7: you know, the snow plows have gone through and the
• 52:02
  Speaker 7: snow's dirty. But so some of these roads change and
• 52:06
  Speaker 7: can be very beautiful depending on the season as well.
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you guys talked about the road, you know, going
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: up the coast in Southern California, but the 17 mile
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: drive is one of the most beautiful drives in California ever.
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: And that's where Pismo Beach and all the castles. There's
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: so many cool things.
• 52:30
  Speaker 7: Scott, how about the drive to Key West?
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: I love that. That one never gets old. That's one
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: of my favorites.
• 52:39
  Speaker 6: The traffic sucks.
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: Not when we go. We get up early.
• 52:44
  Speaker 4: We don't have a problem.
• 52:47
  Speaker 7: Scott, remember the time we took my dad?
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Don't even talk about that. I have I nearly broke
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: my wrist in Key Largo after a glass bottom boat.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: We didn't even know there was some sort of an
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: event down there. And her dad, it was an hour
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: to go one mile. I've heard of the movie The
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: Longest Yard by Burt Reynolds, but I've never heard of
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: The Longest Drive, one mile that nearly got me a
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: broken wrist. If I didn't have his sense of humor,
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: I was in trouble. And I still came back icing
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: my wrist when it was over with. Your dad saved
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: the day there. A glass-bottom boat. All right. Well, you
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: know what? It only comes full circle that we talked
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: about a 13-year-old kid making $ 505, 000. So every now and then,
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: I'm going to put some soccer topics here on this
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: show because soccer is still a good sport. People do
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: watch it every now and then, although nobody really cares
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: about it after the World Cup. I will bring them
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: in every once in a while, but this one was
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: just too good to pass up, especially since I play soccer.
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: it's like a puzzle to me when I put these
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: things together. You know, we have a $ 505, 000 kid selling
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: a pig, and now we're going to talk about Lionel
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: Messi because he got some insane perks at the World Cup.
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: Let me go to these people. This is unbelievable. And
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: you're thinking about a place that went out there and
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: had hydration breaks at this thing. Never even heard of
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: them until this World Cup, but let's go home anyways, okay?
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: Lionel Messi, you got a taste of it out there, Jen,
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: didn't you? Lionel Messi out of the World Cup? Well,
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: you didn't see him.
• 54:21
  Speaker 4: I mean, you just can't beat him. People wanted to
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: hate him, but you can't.
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: No, you can't.
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't. Great minds think alike. So let's go
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: to the scoreboard, as one of my old friends say.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: Going to the scoreboard on Lionel Messi. Private team flights.
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: Chartered jets between host cities. Boy, I'll tell you that
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: like the summer. 24-7 security. Police escorts from hotel to stadium.
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: Tactical meeting rooms. Coaches break down every opponent. Stadium player lounges,
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: quiet rooms before kickoff, closed training pitches, private sessions away
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: from fans. I don't like fans. That's why I stay
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: in the press box. But otherwise, my golden years ahead,
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: I won't have to ever see them anyways. But I
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: love the fans that watch us because they're good people
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: because they know what quality entertainment is. Private dining rooms, teams,
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: chefs make every meal, recovery rooms, physios, ice baths, and
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: massage rooms. I can use one of those now after
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: what I go through every night when I blow a
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: gasket like I did. Custom World Cup boots, player kit,
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: prepped every match. Argentina team base, private resorts and training fields,
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: family VIP access, private boxes for the people around them. Boy,
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: that is really tough stuff. Obviously, it looks like their
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: training base was in Kansas City. So with that said,
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: Let's go to you, Jen. What do you think of
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: Lionel Messi? This guy is pretty special. He's getting all
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: this stuff.
• 55:53
  Speaker 4: I mean, when you're a goat, you're a goat. You know,
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: he is all that and a cup of tea. I mean,
• 55:59
  Speaker 4: he's fun to watch. He's fascinating. I think he should
• 56:03
  Speaker 4: throw some hyperbaric oxygen therapy in there because you know
• 56:06
  Speaker 4: how I feel about that, especially when you're doing the
• 56:08
  Speaker 4: headbutting in soccer. I played soccer, but most of my
• 56:12
  Speaker 4: soccer experience or football experience in later years have to
• 56:16
  Speaker 4: do with Ted Lasso. So I'll pass it to Steve.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: Look at you, Jen. Awesome stuff when you're close like that.
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: Everybody can pass baton. Well, I keep looking for that.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: That's a rule of thumb. I pass baton when you're
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: done to your partner. That allows me to keep my
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: mind actively wild. It already is anyways. Go ahead, Steve.
• 56:38
  Speaker 4: Steve, you're up on Messy.
• 56:41
  Speaker 6: It's good to be the king, right? Yeah.
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: Isn't it? Tell me. Any more do you want to add?
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: Anything else you want to add?
• 56:55
  Speaker 5: No, I mean, I think you said it all. I mean,
• 56:57
  Speaker 5: he's got all that going on. It's good to be
• 57:00
  Speaker 5: the king.
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough. That's good. Okay, Jen. I mean, Eddie.
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: It's all right. It's okay, Scott. It's You're focused. You know,
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: we sit here, we kind of go, oh, wow, look
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: at LeBron James making money. Look at all these players
• 57:22
  Speaker 3: making money. Honestly, if you look at some of the
• 57:25
  Speaker 3: top U.S. sports athletes, and you look at Lionel Messi,
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: and you look at Ronaldo, our guys look poor compared
• 57:37
  Speaker 3: to them. And I say that facetiously. But these guys
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: make– I mean, with all the perks and all that stuff. And,
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: you know, if you look at Ronaldo's story, if you
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: look at Messi's story, they burned what they got. It's
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: not like they were– they weren't born with a silver
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: spoon in their mouth and they weren't given it. They
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: worked for what they got and they got to where
• 57:59
  Speaker 3: they are. And, you know, that's– That's kind of the
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: American dream. You work hard, you get to achieve. And
• 58:06
  Speaker 3: those that are not American, it's good to see that
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: people from around the world can kind of achieve that
• 58:13
  Speaker 3: so-called American dream. They worked hard. They still work hard.
• 58:17
  Speaker 3: And they make generational wealth for their bloodline, basically. And
• 58:25
  Speaker 3: that's a great thing.
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: Candy?
• 58:29
  Speaker 7: You know, I mean, he is a GOAT. we treat
• 58:33
  Speaker 7: our goats with respect. We give them things that we
• 58:37
  Speaker 7: wouldn't give others. Um, is it right? Is it wrong?
• 58:41
  Speaker 7: I mean, Hey, there's a reason he plays the sport. We,
• 58:47
  Speaker 7: we would hope that they give back as well, what
• 58:52
  Speaker 7: they get, um, because he's made a lot of money
• 58:55
  Speaker 7: being the goat. Um, but it's cool. Uh, I can
• 59:02
  Speaker 7: say I am not the goat of anything.
• 59:06
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 59:09
  Speaker 7: But kudos to him.
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: The only goat I get sometimes is I'm the goat
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: if I screw things up. Other than that, I don't
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: take care of it.
• 59:15
  Speaker 3: Well, I am the goat of that.
• 59:16
  Speaker 6: Yes, Scott.
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: I feel you on that one.
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: There.
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: That's okay.
• 59:19
  Speaker 4: I feel like if you're the draw and you're the
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: reason people are coming, it's okay to, you know, I
• 59:26
  Speaker 4: think people need to understand that better. He doesn't just
• 59:31
  Speaker 4: come because someone says or someone chooses. It's a symbiotic relationship, right?
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's keep it rolling. We talked about travel. I
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: got another good one here. Only this time you don't
• 59:46
  Speaker 2: have to leave the country to do it. Eight towns
• 59:48
  Speaker 2: in America are so beautiful. They will make you want
• 59:51
  Speaker 2: to pack up and move tomorrow. Jackson, Wyoming. Ever been
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: to Jackson, Wyoming? I like Wyoming anyways. They don't like me.
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: One guy didn't want to break a $ 100 bill one
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 2: time because I only bought $ 20 in gas. I said,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: you got one or two choices. If you break my
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 2: $ 100 bill, you just gave me free gas. He opened
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: that cop pick and crash register and gave me my $ 420.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: That was the end of that story. But that was
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: not in Jackson, Wyoming. Let's keep it going. They say
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: it's surrounded by the Teton Mountains and world-class skiing wildlife
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: and one of the most sought-after real estate markets in
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: the entire country. The Bar Harbor, Maine, I'll bet Steve's
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: probably been up there. A coastal town sitting at the
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: edge of Acadia National Park, ocean views, fresh lobster, a
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: charm that draws millions of visitors every year. Sedona, Arizona. Oh, God, Sedona, Arizona.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: Don't get me started with that place. Red Rock Country.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: I call that heaven on earth. Whitefish, Montana. A mountain
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: town on the edge of the Glacier National Park with
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 2: a lake ski resort and a town that wealthy remote
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: workers have been quietly to for years. Carmel by the
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: Sea in California. I know you're a California girl, Jen.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: I'm sure you'll have an opinion on this one. A
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: fairytale down the California coast with art galleries, white sand beaches,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: and some of the most expensive real estate per square
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: foot in the state. Charleston, South Carolina. Been there. I'd
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: like to spend a little bit more time there. That's
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: something we're probably going to do, especially with the Travel
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: Channel right up the road from us. But it's got
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: historic architecture, waterfront dining, and booming economy. one of the
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: fastest-growing real estate markets in the Southeast right now. As
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: a matter of fact, the Carolinas are growing big time. Leavenworth, Washington,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: a Bavarian ski-style village tucked into Cascade Mountains, a year-round
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: tourist destination that generates serious short-term rental income for property owners. Stowe,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: Vermont is on that list, a classic New England mountain
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: town famous for fall foliage and ski season. one of
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: the most visited small towns in the Northeast. And that
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: pretty much does it there. Jen, I'll let you take
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: it from there. And when you're done.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 4: I mean, fabulous little places that you're mentioning. I'm surprised
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 4: Coeur d'Alene, Idaho wasn't on there, but I'm going to
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 4: guess that the last move bounced that off, you know,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 4: the 2021, 2022.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 6: Move.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 4: I mean, Sedona is fantastic and gorgeous. I'm going to
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 4: have to pass on Montana because I can't do that
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 4: much snow. Same with probably the Rhode Island. You know,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 4: you're talking about that's probably a little more cold than
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 4: I want to be. I'm not so interested in Washington.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 4: The Carolinas, I love the Carolinas. I think they're absolutely fantastic.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 4: I would live in a lot of places in the Carolinas.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 4: I would live in a You know, there is a
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 4: lot being said about Wyoming right now. I think Wyoming
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 4: is going to change.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 5: In the coming years. In fact, Jackson, Wyoming was in
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 5: the movie Any Which Way You Can by Clint Eastwood.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 6: That's where they had the big fight at the end.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 4: But hey, Scott, right?
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 5: If you're going to go up to Maine, you have
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 5: to say it the way the locals do.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 6: It's Bahaba.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that's my New England lesson for the night.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 5: It's Bahaba for the lobster.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. You don't have the... Yeah, that's true.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 2: They don't use that R up there, do they?
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 6: No. It's an A-H.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, is that what that is? I'll just forget the R,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: but A-H.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you put an H on there.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: Make sure you tell all the speech improvement and phonetics
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: people in every college that as well, because I'll bet
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: half of them don't even know it anyways. I took
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 2: a course back in the day at USF and they
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: didn't know half of that stuff, but it was a
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: good fun class to do anyways, to try to go
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: ahead and do it. Great stuff. I'll take that. I'll
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: take those, especially when you and I and Andy Canavino
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: get together in Naples and I'm trying to broker a
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: book deal between you and him. Eventually I just had
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: to find the right situation because he didn't get your
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: first book. But if I have anything to say, you're
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: going to have another one. And I usually am pretty
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: outspoken when I need to be at the right time.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Andy.
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 3: Well, I've been to Charleston and down in that whole area.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 3: That is gorgeous. That is just a gorgeous area. I
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: actually had a project down there, so I spent some
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 3: time going back and forth. I've been to Montana. I've
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: been to Billings, Montana, so I'm familiar with the Montana
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: mystique and the mountainous and the flat. Very nice area.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 3: I've not been to Wyoming, but I've heard it's... I
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: heard it's gorgeous. And I've been not to the specific
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 3: places up in the Northeast, but I've been up to
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 3: Vermont in the winter. And, you know, Vermont is, you know,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 3: the size of a, it's a tiny little state that's very,
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: looks very much the same as nice all over. So
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: I think you could, I think you could do well
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: with any of those places that you mentioned, Scott, would
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 3: be a nice place to visit.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: Candy. Yeah.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 7: There are, There are some of those places that I
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 7: have never been to. I could say, let's see, I've
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 7: not been to Montana, not been to Wyoming. Arizona I've
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 7: been to. Sedona is beautiful. I can tell you that
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 7: back in the day when I was, my parents and
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 7: my siblings and I were on a road trip. Our
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 7: car actually broke down in Sedona, so we actually got
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 7: to spend some extra time there, which was kind of cool.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 7: We've been to the Badlands, been to the Carolinas. That's
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 7: all cool. There's a lot of neat places in the U.S.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 7: that I have not been to. Scott, I don't have
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 7: the same claim to fame that you do. You have
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 7: been in all 50 states. I have not.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 7: Yes, he has actually been in all 50 states, which
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 7: I think is really kind of cool.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 3: It is. That's cool.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it hasn't been easy sometimes. I'm going to tell
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: you some of the things that I've done on the
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: road that have maybe prevented me. So, Steve, your phone
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: battery is about to die.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm down to like 3% here. So if I
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 5: got one topic, I'll get you in and we'll wrap
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 5: up the show.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 2: All right, Steve, because the other ones ain't going to matter.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: But this one definitely.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 6: I was on the phone yelling at T-Mobile for an hour.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: And a half. Steve, you got to be on for
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: this topic. I can't wait on this one. Say what
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: you got to say. And that's this. OK, because here's
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: the reality of the situation. OK, and that's this. A
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: woman turns down marriage proposal after learning engagement ring. was
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: bought at Walmart. All right, Steve, go ahead. Give me
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: your take on this real quick.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 6: What's that again?
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a woman turns down a marriage proposal after learning
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: her engagement ring was bought at Walmart.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 5: Hey, it doesn't matter where it was bought at.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 6: It's the thought behind it.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: Don't tell that to that woman.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 6: No, well, you know.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: Well, here, I'll give you another one real quick, okay?
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: Is that all you want to say on that? I'll
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: slip another rapid fire.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, give me one more.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: There's one clown named Snoop from TikTok says, never moved
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: to these cities, Chicago, Detroit, and Jacksonville. My goodness. What
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: are your thoughts about what this guy had to say?
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I have no desire to move to
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 5: Chicago or Detroit, but Jacksonville, I don't mind Jacksonville. I
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 5: think that's a pretty nice place.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 6: I don't know.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 5: I've never lived there, but I like the warm weather
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 5: now in my advanced old age. You know how it
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 5: is when your bones start to hurt. I like warm weather,
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 5: so that's why I wouldn't think about Chicago or Detroit.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 2: Fair enough. You've got about 1% left in the battery,
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: but you had to do Well, anything you want to
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: mention about how they get a hold of you? And
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: then we'll wrap it up.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 5: I mean, again, you can follow me on Twitter at SteveB7SFG.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 5: I write for PatchVans.com. I'm also a national security editor
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 5: for National Security Journal.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 6: And that keeps me busy these days. But it was
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 6: a blast, guys.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, good. Well, guess what? We'll do it again next week, 7.30 p.m.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 2: Eastern time. Hopefully, my internet will be fixed. Well, hopefully,
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 2: but you made it work. You won ugly tonight, and
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: you got to hear me say Montreal morons, and now
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: I'm going to get death threats beginning tomorrow. Thank God, Candy,
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 2: you're working, because I know I'm going to get them
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 2: after this thing goes viral on Google. All right, so
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: we'll see you next Monday at 730 or whatever the
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: heck it is. I've been involved.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 6: Love you guys.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: I love you too, man.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 4: We'll see you next week.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 6: Later, bud.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 4: Thanks.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 2: We're going to go to a few other topics, and
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: I'll have one or two carryovers, but the carryovers ain't
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: going to matter anyways. So with that said, Jen, let's
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: just start off with the Jacksonville one real quick, and
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: then I'll go back to the other one. So what
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: are your thoughts about TikTok, this clown named Snoop saying
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 2: don't move to Chicago, Detroit, Jacksonville?
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 4: I mean, I can understand the Chicago and Detroit. I
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 4: think downtowns overall have gotten a little like cuckoo and
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 4: out of control. I was just thinking the other day
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 4: how dangerous downtowns are anymore. They're not pleasant. They're not safe.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 4: They're disgusting. They need to be cleaned up, you know. Now, Jacksonville,
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 4: I mean, I haven't been there, but that's not what
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 4: I understand about it. To me, I don't know. I
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 4: haven't been, so I can't really comment. But that seems
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 4: like it's off in left field from the rest of
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 4: the thing.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 2: And Detroit, you're not. I mean, I'm not.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 4: Chicago, I think, kind of the same.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: Well, they really are in a lot of ways.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 4: You've got dirt. You've got homelessness. You've got disgustingness. You
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 4: probably need to clean it up. I don't understand that.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: Well, you also know what they have there? They have
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 2: Michigan Avenue. There they go.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 3: All right, go ahead. Well, Chicago, you know, my niece
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 3: and nephew live in Chicago. I've been to Chicago. I,
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: you know, I think when it comes to the cities,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: I think there are cities, every city I, I in,
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: in the country, whether it's New York, Philadelphia, DC, Chicago, Detroit,
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 3: what have you has its good parts and its bad parts.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 3: You stay away from its bad parts. You frequent its
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 3: good parts. So Chicago is like that. Detroit can't be
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 3: a bad place because the Motor City Mad Mountain is
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 3: from Detroit.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: Oh, thank you.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 3: I mean, it can't be all that bad, right?
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 7: I got to live with him.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: Come on now.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 3: I've never been to Jacksonville, but I mean, it's Florida.
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 3: It's got to be probably warm most of the year.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 3: But actually, Jacksonville is in the Panhandle, right? Or closed. Yeah. So,
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 3: so it's going to, the weather is not, yeah, it's
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 3: not going to be, is that actually in the different part?
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 3: It's not Eastern, right? Is that central?
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 7: It's the Eastern side.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's right.
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 4: Next to Georgia. Okay.
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 3: So, but it's going to, it's weather's probably not going
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 3: to be as warm as some of the other, but
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 3: it's still going to be that Florida-esque. So I don't know.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: I think, I think the Snoop guy is smoking something
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 3: on his TikToks.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: No, you know, I think so too. Go ahead, Kenny.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what I think about him in a moment.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 7: So I've been to all three. I've been to Chicago,
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 7: I've been to Detroit, and I've been to Jacksonville. Now,
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 7: would I want to live in any of them? I'm
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 7: not so sure. Chicago is the Windy City, but it
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 7: also has Madison Avenue. It does have snow, so it
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 7: has change of seasons. It's got a lot of sports
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 7: going on, a lot of things happening there. The same
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 7: with Detroit. I don't think I could live in a
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 7: city that didn't have sports. Even though I am from Milwaukee,
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 7: so I am a diehard against anything from Chicago, whether
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 7: it be the Cubs, the White Sox, the Bears, or
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 7: any of those. But I could see living in those. Jacksonville,
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 7: we've been to. It's nice. It's okay. I don't know
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 7: that I'd... I.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 6: Mean, it's fine.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 2: Okay, here's where I stand on all three of these.
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 2: Number one, Bozo the Clown just made the show because
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 2: this guy is Bozo the Clown. Okay, as far as
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: the cities, Chicago, love the Midwestern people. They've always treated
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: me like I'm a Midwestern guy. Detroit people in Chicago, okay,
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: are really close. They really are. You'd be surprised how
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: close they really are because they treat each other really,
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: really good. Detroit's my hometown. But the one thing people
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 2: need to understand about Detroit is they've done a remarkable
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 2: job with their downtown area. with all those stadiums within
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: about a mile, less than a mile apart with each other,
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: and the way they fixed up that area. Yes, every
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: area has a Martin Luther King Boulevard to it, and
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 2: therefore you're not going to– it's kind of like let
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 2: you know that maybe I wouldn't take your Rolls Royce
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 2: in there if you know what's good for you, but
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 2: you have a Martin Luther King. But I'm not saying
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: it's a bad place, but Detroit, I'm proud of my hometown.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 2: They've done a lot of fixing up. I've always lived
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 2: in the suburbs anyways. Chicago, a lot of people live
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 2: in the suburbs. Jacksonville's all right. Again, Candy said it.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 2: If you don't have the four major sports that you're
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 2: accustomed to, it's tough. But I've had a wonderful working
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 2: relationship with the Jacksonville Jaguars. I have nothing to complain
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 2: whatsoever there. Okay, that's the last topic we let Steve
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: out of here on. We'll end the show on this note.
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: And it'll be this. A woman turning down a marriage
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: proposal after learning engagement ring was brought at Walmart. Jen,
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: what's your thought about it?
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 4: I mean, I kind of need to know a little
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 4: bit more about the couple to begin with. But right
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 4: off the bat, he's basically she's saying, that's all you
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 4: think of me. Like, I can kind of, you know,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 4: I understand. It's sort of like if you're under the
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 4: impression that you're getting a diamond and it's a cubic zirconia. It's,
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 4: you know, there are consequences to buying things at Walmart. Yeah.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: So some of these places do make great rings. I'm
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: back and forth on this one. I got candy herself
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 2: over at Jared. So you won't put me in a
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 2: Walmart discussion. We use Walmart for shopping, but I can
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: see both sides because I don't know the quality of
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 2: the ring itself. If that ring was a lot of money,
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 2: then she had to keep her a big mouth shut
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: and only it was from the heart instead. But she
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: obviously didn't think about it, but it's still, I could
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 2: go either way on it.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 4: Eddie.
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's, I've gone back and forth as
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 3: this question's been there. One minute I'm like, oh, that's
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 3: just a typical female. She wants the expensive one. And
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 3: I'm like, well, you don't know. And then you're like,
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 3: maybe the dude... Because my first thought was when we
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: were shopping for rings, we did it together. It was
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 3: kind of like, I didn't go out and just say, oh,
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 3: I'm going to pick this ring. So it wasn't kind of...
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 3: I had ideas, but where we finally were going to go.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 3: I knew where it was going to go. So, you know,
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 3: maybe the guy, you know, maybe the guys can't rub
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: two nickels together and he's doing his best and he,
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 3: you know, and you know, so it's kind of, but
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 3: then I can say, but then I see Jen's point,
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 3: you know, it's not necessarily Walmart, unfortunately has the stereotypical
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: thing of being, let's say cheap, for example, inexpensive. And,
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 3: you know, you think diamond engagement ring, somebody's going to say,
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 3: And not rightfully so necessarily that, you know, so I
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 3: don't know. It's I don't know. I'm going to, I'm
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 3: going to stay. I don't know. That's my final answer, Scott.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: I don't know about this one.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: Well, I told you I'm on the fence about it too.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, I didn't say, I didn't want to be
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: on the fence.
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: Well, that's okay to waffle. Brett Favre did for a
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 2: lot of years and got away with it. So there's
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 2: nothing wrong with us for doing it either. All right,
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 2: we have another woman here. Oh, that's okay. That's good. Candy,
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 2: what do you think?
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 7: So, Scott, tell me exactly what, read that part of
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 7: the story again.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: Wow, you got a different version than the one I got?
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 7: No, no, no.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 2: All right, good. I'll read it back to you. I'm
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: just saying, oh, God. The king of research is about
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 2: to find a research me on to be incredible here.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: But no, a woman turned down marriage proposal after learning
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: the engagement ring was bought from Walmart.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 7: Okay, so a couple things. to this story. You said
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 7: an engagement ring. You did not say a diamond ring.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 7: If you go to Walmart and you buy, you could
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 7: buy fashion jewelry, that piece of jewelry might last longer
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 7: than your marriage because it could be fake and it
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 7: could turn your fingers colors. I mean, here's what I'm
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 7: going to say. Without knowing the financial situation, If he
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 7: was just trying to be cheap, then yeah, get out.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 7: Because this is a ring that's supposed to last you
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 7: your entire life. So is it one you're going to
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 7: spend a little bit more on? Because if you're not
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 7: spending the money on your fiancé that you want to
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 7: spend the rest of your life with, who are you
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 7: spending your money on? That's my two cents. Now, I'm
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 7: not saying you've got to go out and buy... the
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 7: best thing out there that you can't afford, but within reason,
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 7: it should be a symbol of your love for her.
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 7: And if your symbol of your love is only $ 50
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 7: ring or something like that, I do have a problem
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 7: with that.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 4: I think I want to tune back in again. I
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 4: hope you don't mind. both brought up really valuable points
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 4: about the value and it's really the value of Walmart
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 4: because Walmart has even like, even if you buy a
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 4: Sony at Walmart, it's not the same Sony that you
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 4: buy anywhere else. Walmart has, because they, they're such strong
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 4: negotiators and they have such big buying power. There's actual
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 4: lines that are created that are only sold at Walmart
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 4: and Because it's not just that it's more, that it's
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 4: less expensive, that it's, you know, inexpensive. It's that it's
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 4: cheaper made. It's the quality of Walmart is not quality
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 4: at all. And that's, I think, where the real problem
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 4: is because he could buy an inexpensive ring somewhere else.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 4: And there's no problem in having starter rings in saying,
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 4: you know, but yet that's a conversation like to Ed's point,
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 4: like he went out with his wife and they shopped together.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 4: What can we afford right now? What do we want
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 4: to hope to aspire to? A lot of people upgrade
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 4: their ring as they go on through life. And I
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 4: think that's perfectly fine. I think that it's the concept
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 4: of like, whether you bought it at Timu or, I
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 4: don't want anything from Teemu or Shine either, right?
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 3: That's telling me you.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 4: Don't value me, that you value junk. That's what Walmart sells,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 4: that's what Teemu sells, and that's what Shine sells. Junk
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 4: at a low price versus you can have something of
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 4: the same exact price that you paid at Walmart, but
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 4: you could get something that's not as perceived as junk.
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 2: All right, well, let me give you everybody an interesting story.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 2: Because everybody came up with some good points. Can't keep
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: me quiet when I got this. And we got to
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 2: go to Sports Exchange in a few minutes. Number one,
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: all the rings I have, I put them in my
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: safety deposit box. You know what I did? I bought
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: a candy, found me an interesting little ring over at
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 2: Festival Flea Market. It's too bad they tore the place
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 2: down and built warehouses. And this little $ 5 cheapie is
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: good enough because if anybody wants to steal this thing,
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 2: they must be really hard up. And this little bad
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 2: boy is holding up pretty good. I don't worry about nothing.
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 2: So it's a different situation. I'd rather keep the cash
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: in the other ring put away at home. What am
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 2: I going to insure? A $ 5 X-Lax ring?
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: Seriously?
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 3: Really? Seriously?
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: Whatever order.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 6: Really?
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 3: Seriously?
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 2: That's how you do it, right? When you have a
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: hat named after it. So that's it. These ring stories
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 2: are interesting and all that. But yeah, Festival of Flea Market.
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. I'll tell you about the Festival
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: of Flea Market. Before I went down, I bought this
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: microphone chain and I bought three more. Can everybody see it.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 3: Here out in TV land? Yeah.
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 2: And I ended up getting three more. I bought their
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: last four microphones and got the last four changed. And
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you, I got a lot of stuff there,
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: but at least I'm able to take, at least I
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: have my image over at the Festival Flea Market. Great
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 2: doing business with you all. Enjoy the warehouses. And I
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 2: hope everybody else enjoyed this edition of the Motor City
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: Man Mount show. With that said, let's whip it around
