Speaker 1: It is time believe your worries outside and come laugh
0:30
Speaker 1: with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Maley along with
0:34
Speaker 1: Trey Trendholm and Raj Sharma on Thursday, November seven, twenty
0:43
Speaker 1: twenty four. I've been contemplating firing up a new game
0:50
Speaker 1: slash new feature here inside the Treehouse, and I think
0:53
Speaker 1: I've found the perfect story in which to launch our
0:59
Speaker 1: new feature. Don't leave us hanging, No, definitely not. Do
1:14
Speaker 1: not underestimate these voters. Okay, this is a I'm just
1:20
Speaker 1: kind of winging it here, so bear with me. Here
1:22
Speaker 1: here is the first time, the first edition of Believe
1:28
Speaker 1: It or Not Inside the Treehouse. I am going to
1:37
Speaker 1: give you, guys a news story or a survey, some
1:44
Speaker 1: type of piece of information, and you have to decide
1:47
Speaker 1: if you believe.
1:48
Speaker 2: It or not.
1:49
Speaker 3: Who okay?
1:52
Speaker 1: All right? Are you ready for your very first Believe
1:56
Speaker 1: It or Not? I am okay. The Amish. The Amish
2:07
Speaker 1: turned out for the Pennsylvania vote in the twenty twenty
2:11
Speaker 1: four presidential election in unprecedented numbers and contributed to Donald
2:17
Speaker 1: Trump's victory, leading to him being the forty seventh president
2:20
Speaker 1: of the United States. The Amish turned out in unprecedented
2:28
Speaker 1: numbers in the state of Pennsylvania to help Donald Trump
2:30
Speaker 1: secure not only the state's electoral votes but also the
2:35
Speaker 1: nomination for President of the United States. Believe it or not,
2:40
Speaker 1: Let's go with h Rise. Let's start with you, sir.
2:43
Speaker 1: You believe it.
2:46
Speaker 3: Believe it one hundred percent. Believe it.
2:48
Speaker 2: Trey, No, I don't believe it.
2:54
Speaker 1: Clearly, I haven't thought this all the way through because
2:56
Speaker 1: one of you is right and one of you is wrong.
2:58
Speaker 1: So let's start with this, Trey. I am unfortunately I
3:03
Speaker 1: have to share with you. But that didn't work. Hang on,
3:07
Speaker 1: it's not working. My thing didn't work. Oh that worked.
3:13
Speaker 1: That works. That does not work for some reason. All right,
3:17
Speaker 1: hang on, I've got to back up. Not that it
3:19
Speaker 1: really matters that much, but I'm gonna do it anyway
3:21
Speaker 1: for the sake of, you know, consistency. Sorry, Trey, Okay,
3:29
Speaker 1: it's a little rusty, but it's the first time. We're
3:31
Speaker 1: gonna get there eventually. That would actually make you rajah correct.
3:37
Speaker 1: The Amish did, in fact turn out in unprecedented numbers
3:41
Speaker 1: in their horse and buggies to the voting polls in
3:44
Speaker 1: the state of Pennsylvania to help Donald Trump secure the
3:47
Speaker 1: forty seventh presidency of the United States. Yes, I told
3:52
Speaker 1: you you can't. You know what we don't. We don't
3:56
Speaker 1: get political inside the treehouse very often. But by god,
3:58
Speaker 1: if when big comes for your unpasteurized raw milk, by God,
4:04
Speaker 1: the Omish, you're gonna revolt huge.
4:08
Speaker 3: No, I'm not making that up.
4:10
Speaker 1: That's the reason.
4:12
Speaker 3: Yes, I I. I was watching the CNN and they
4:19
Speaker 3: had the Trump surrogate for Pennsylvania and I tried not
4:23
Speaker 3: to laugh out loud when he, with a straight face,
4:26
Speaker 3: was like, yeah, they're going for like Philadelphia, they're going
4:30
Speaker 3: for Pittsburgh. The Harris campaign, they're going for those guys.
4:34
Speaker 3: We are actively targeting the Amish. And I busted out laughing,
4:38
Speaker 3: and I was like, well, they don't use electronics. And
4:43
Speaker 3: so they promised them paper ballots and uh, that they
4:50
Speaker 3: could bring there, that they would have parking, ample parking
4:53
Speaker 3: for their horse and carriages. And based on that promise, uh,
4:57
Speaker 3: they pulled up in record numbers. And if do you
5:00
Speaker 3: want anybody voting for you, it's the people that don't
5:03
Speaker 3: use contraception of any kind and have all you know,
5:06
Speaker 3: have all nineteen kids voting for the same guy in
5:09
Speaker 3: each family. That's who you want.
5:11
Speaker 1: It really is. I mean, if you think about it, Look,
5:14
Speaker 1: we can dig we could dig in deep into presidential
5:18
Speaker 1: politics and what happens if you ignore a certain segment
5:21
Speaker 1: of the population. But I don't think we need to
5:23
Speaker 1: do a huge deep dive on this one because it's
5:25
Speaker 1: pretty obvious if if you court them, they may vote
5:31
Speaker 1: for you. But it especially helps if the previous administration
5:35
Speaker 1: comes for their raw milk. Yes, Republicans saw boost in
5:40
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania from a demographic rarely seen at the polls. The Amish,
5:46
Speaker 1: the states famed Pennsylvania Dutch, registered to vote in unprecedented
5:51
Speaker 1: numbers in response to a January federal raid on a
5:54
Speaker 1: local raw milk farm in bird in Hand, Pennsylvania. The
5:58
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania Department of Actriculture stormed Amos Miller's farm on January
6:04
Speaker 1: fourth after reports of illnesses and children linked to raw
6:08
Speaker 1: dairy products purchased there. The Amish community saw the move
6:15
Speaker 1: as an overzealous reach by the government and was planning
6:17
Speaker 1: to vote for GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, whose party
6:20
Speaker 1: favors less government intervention. According to a source of the
6:25
Speaker 1: local Amish voters, that was the impetus for them to say,
6:29
Speaker 1: we need to participate. This is about neighbors helping neighbors.
6:33
Speaker 1: The Amish rallied around Farmer Miller, who cited his religious
6:37
Speaker 1: beliefs as a reason for not adhering to FDA guidelines.
6:44
Speaker 1: Actual numbers of Amish voters were unclear, though horse and
6:48
Speaker 1: buggy rigs were seen at polling locations and photographs from
6:52
Speaker 1: the region. So I think there's a lesson to be
6:55
Speaker 1: learned here in politics, which his no stone left.
6:58
Speaker 3: Unturned, No, no, no butter left unturned.
7:04
Speaker 1: You want to turn out the vote or do you
7:07
Speaker 1: want to churn out the vote? I can't tell that
7:12

9:59
Speaker 1: we he darted. With the Amish turning out at unprecedented
10:03
Speaker 1: numbers in the twenty twenty four presidential election. The closest
10:09
Speaker 1: I can get to a segue on this is the
10:12
Speaker 1: Amish certainly know how to co opt things, right, the
10:15
Speaker 1: whole socialist living thing, communism and type stuff, because they
10:19
Speaker 1: all kind of pull their resources together live as one community.
10:22
Speaker 1: Well there's across the pond, as they say, there was
10:25
Speaker 1: an english Man who tried doing something similar with drugs.
10:33
Speaker 1: So look, entrepreneurialship is very hard, right, Starting and running
10:41
Speaker 1: your own business is time consuming, it's life consuming, it's
10:45
Speaker 1: life altering, and if you want it to be successful,
10:49
Speaker 1: you've got to go the extra mile. Well, sometimes you
10:51
Speaker 1: just don't have a good business, maybe you don't have
10:54
Speaker 1: a good plan, or maybe you just suck as an
10:57
Speaker 1: entrepreneur in that particular industry. So what do you do?
11:00
Speaker 1: You pivot? Well that's what that's what this man did.
11:05
Speaker 1: Across the pond. John Pritchard turned to brokering wholesale drug
11:11
Speaker 1: deals as his financial woes mounted during covid H. He
11:16
Speaker 1: took extreme measures because his business began to fail and well,
11:20
Speaker 1: you know you gotta do what you gotta do to
11:23
Speaker 1: make ends meet, right, So what he did was he
11:27
Speaker 1: found himself in a chat room on a platform called
11:30
Speaker 1: incro chat, and he used the handle Lofty Cliff in
11:37
Speaker 1: order to trade in kilogram quantities of cocaine and cannabis.
11:43
Speaker 1: Plots to smuggle shipments into the UK from Holland were
11:47
Speaker 1: also muted as he and his close allies formed a
11:51
Speaker 1: cooperative drug supply chain.
11:55
Speaker 3: Isn't it just called a cartel.
11:58
Speaker 1: In the States, it would be sort of a cartel, okay,
12:02
Speaker 1: But here in the UK, I guess they they thought
12:06
Speaker 1: it fell short of cartel since it was just limited
12:08
Speaker 1: to chat rooms. They thought, no, it just sounds more
12:12
Speaker 1: like a co op because I feel like a cartel,
12:14
Speaker 1: you have to reach a certain number of members, right, Yeah.
12:18
Speaker 3: I don't know what that. I don't know what membership is.
12:22
Speaker 6: You know, well, there was you know, like the Sineloa cartel,
12:24
Speaker 6: which was kind of a conglomerate of different families versus
12:28
Speaker 6: you know some that I just have one.
12:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, gotcha. Okay, Well, what.
12:34
Speaker 1: You're describing tray is just a corporation. So I guess,
12:39
Speaker 1: I guess those are your three levels. Your your base
12:41
Speaker 1: level when you're working with a group is co op.
12:44
Speaker 1: So it's cooperative. Then if you rise to a certain level,
12:47
Speaker 1: then you're a cartel. But then if you rise above cartel,
12:50
Speaker 1: then you're just a corporation.
12:52
Speaker 3: Yeah.
12:53
Speaker 1: Coke ink I like it exists. Oh but that's what
13:03
Speaker 1: happened in Liverpool Crown Court last week. Messages revealed when
13:08
Speaker 1: the network was infiltrated by French police during twenty twenty.
13:12
Speaker 1: It showed Pritchard's involvement in arranging the supply of one
13:16
Speaker 1: and a half kilograms of cocaine and at least fifteen
13:19
Speaker 1: kilos of cannabis. Again, keep in mind his handle that
13:23
Speaker 1: he used is lofty Cliff.
13:26
Speaker 6: This it's a brit infiltrated by the French. I mean
13:31
Speaker 6: this with lofty Cliff. This sounds like a Monty Python sketch.
13:38
Speaker 1: But wait, there's more of you. The forty six year
13:43
Speaker 1: old Pritchard, again who went by the name lofty Cliff,
13:47
Speaker 1: was also said to have agreed to a source or
13:50
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, was also said to have agreed to source
13:53
Speaker 1: a further five kilos of Class A drugs, although it
13:56
Speaker 1: was unclear from his communications whether this transaction was with
14:00
Speaker 1: Red Leader. Another handle was in fact completed. So if
14:05
Speaker 1: you're following on the chat room handle, so far we
14:08
Speaker 1: have lofty Cliff and Red Leader, right all right, Jamie
14:16
Speaker 1: Baxter who very much a Star Wars fan. Jamie Baxter,
14:22
Speaker 1: the prosecutor described lofty Cliff as effectively running around for
14:25
Speaker 1: the supply of illicit substances with contacts known only in
14:29
Speaker 1: the chat rooms as Ginger Jaw, Destructive Tailor, and Motocross Yeah,
14:36
Speaker 1: all said to be equal partners in the operation. However,
14:39
Speaker 1: their conversations also revealed issues with the quality of the
14:43
Speaker 1: weed that they were supplying, with one customer complaining that
14:46
Speaker 1: a sample of their drugs was not California strain and
14:49
Speaker 1: instead appeared to be Spanish grown haze worth a fraction
14:53
Speaker 1: of the praise.
14:54
Speaker 3: M Yeah, I mean quality control is not a a
14:58
Speaker 3: position they filled. I'm guessing now.
15:00
Speaker 1: Although a chat with Snowy Orchid revealed a transaction for
15:05
Speaker 1: one kilogram taking place during a COVID lockdown, Prettier, again
15:10
Speaker 1: known as lofty Cliff, was also said to have discussed
15:13
Speaker 1: the importation of cocaine from the Netherlands with his fellow
15:16
Speaker 1: co conspirators.
15:17
Speaker 6: Please tell me Snowy Orchid was buying coke because I
15:24
Speaker 6: think you have to.
15:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what that name you have to be. You
15:27
Speaker 2: have to be buying coke.
15:28
Speaker 3: They didn't know what the other Class A drugs were,
15:31
Speaker 3: but China White sixty nine Dragon Chaser fifty four.
15:40
Speaker 2: Uh, cheach is my hero.
15:47
Speaker 3: It was actually cheap.

Speaker 1: your way trying to help every client and try to

16:38

Speaker 9: plumbing is unfortunately a need and not so much a want. Yes,
16:44

Speaker 7: You're listening to the Treehouse.

17:52
Speaker 1: Look, all I'm saying is, if you're going to be
17:55
Speaker 1: a drug dealer, maybe don't make your internet handle so
17:59
Speaker 1: obvious Snowy Orchid that we learned that they were using
18:03
Speaker 1: that one chat room in the UK. Don't don't let
18:08
Speaker 1: your user name be drug user, you know, sixty nine.
18:12
Speaker 1: Just just don't be so god obvious with it.
18:16
Speaker 3: Key bump Mike, Yeah.
18:20
Speaker 1: I mean, make the authorities work for it a little bit.
18:24
Speaker 1: Like be just a little like you try to use
18:26
Speaker 1: some type of code or I don't know, just an
18:29
Speaker 1: outright head fake like sober Man twenty two. I think
18:33
Speaker 1: that would stand a better chance of flying underneath the
18:36
Speaker 1: radar of the police that are out to bust internet
18:39
Speaker 1: drug rings.
18:40
Speaker 3: Steve needs Blow seventy seven.
18:44
Speaker 10: Skiing in the bathroom, I mean, just make it look.
18:54
Speaker 1: One of the things we've we've learned from our dear friend,
18:57
Speaker 1: Captain Mark Howard, Dallas County Sheriff's Office, Retired, is that
19:01
Speaker 1: criminals are pretty stupid. Now, this part here that I'm
19:06
Speaker 1: about to say is my own opinion, not his. Hollywood
19:11
Speaker 1: has completely warped our brains. That's actually a good statement
19:17
Speaker 1: in general, but more specifically to this topic. Hollywood has
19:21
Speaker 1: warped our brains so much that we give criminals more
19:24
Speaker 1: credit than they deserve. And this is a great example
19:27
Speaker 1: of that. You have people trying to work a drug
19:31
Speaker 1: co op online using handles like lofty cliff, which is
19:37
Speaker 1: you're high, snowy Orchid, which is obviously it's like it's
19:42
Speaker 1: like you might as well be Peruved was a Bolivian
19:44
Speaker 1: marching powder dude. I mean, this is just stupid, which
19:49
Speaker 1: is why we appreciate it.
19:50
Speaker 2: But still.
19:53
Speaker 6: The fact that you're using a chat room just in
19:58
Speaker 6: and of itself.
20:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I've seen this. Yeah it is British. I
20:05
Speaker 1: mean I've seen this in some television shows and films
20:09
Speaker 1: where terrorists or bad guys whatever they are, will use
20:14
Speaker 1: chat rooms inside of video games. And I think that
20:17
Speaker 1: was real at some point. I think that's taken from
20:20
Speaker 1: from real life, but that was probably from twenty years ago.
20:22
Speaker 1: That's how we're now seeing it in films. But there's
20:26
Speaker 1: a show I was watching about Seal Team six back
20:29
Speaker 1: in the day that was on History Channel, and if
20:31
Speaker 1: I'm remembering this correctly, they used a video game to
20:35
Speaker 1: talk to each other. So it's like it's like if
20:38
Speaker 1: you were playing obviously, you know, Black Ops six would
20:41
Speaker 1: be a little too obvious. But like, let's say you're
20:45
Speaker 1: doing Pokemon Go. You could be doing Pokemon Go with friends,
20:51
Speaker 1: and in the chat room inside the video game you
20:53
Speaker 1: could have your nefarious chats and plans and things.
20:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Black Ops I was just like, you know,
21:00
Speaker 3: they were using a video game called Black Tar seven.
21:04
Speaker 1: Although now that I think about it, I am a
21:06
Speaker 1: big proponent of sometimes the best place to hide is
21:09
Speaker 1: out in the open. So if you were going to
21:12
Speaker 1: arrange a real life drug deal, maybe a good spot
21:17
Speaker 1: to do it would be in the middle of Grand
21:19
Speaker 1: Theft Auto.
21:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess if you're not hip to the game,
21:27
Speaker 3: like I'm not a gamer, so I wouldn't know that's
21:30
Speaker 3: where I could score. But I mean if I think
21:33
Speaker 3: if you kind of understand like that culture whatever, and
21:37
Speaker 3: you start talking to people and they start moving you around.
21:39
Speaker 3: But chat rooms, I think is a little I don't know,
21:42
Speaker 3: early like late nineties, when you're like and it's the
21:46
Speaker 3: British though, so everybody's polite, like can I get a
21:48
Speaker 3: spot of coke? Like?
21:53
Speaker 6: I feel like when you start dealing in kilos you
21:56
Speaker 6: need to go offline.
22:01
Speaker 3: We should have a different segment called advice from Trey.
22:06
Speaker 1: I'm all for that, by the way. I'm all for
22:09
Speaker 1: a segment called advice from Trey. You just can't let
22:13
Speaker 1: it be well, actually, maybe you can't allow it to
22:17
Speaker 1: be romantic advice as well, because well that's Trey snickering
22:22
Speaker 1: by the way, it's not anybody else. I think Advice
22:25
Speaker 1: from Tray would work not only as a segment but
22:28
Speaker 1: also just in general, I think his advice would probably
22:31
Speaker 1: be heeded by most. I'd be curious to see how
22:34
Speaker 1: it works on the relationship side of things, but he
22:37
Speaker 1: certainly speaks from experience of what doesn't work.
22:40
Speaker 2: I just like, yeah, those who can't do teach.
22:48
Speaker 3: Trey Trenham drug consultant, like just the music, like Delilah,
22:55
Speaker 3: just the music in the back, like advice from Trey
22:58
Speaker 3: when dealing in pounds of weed, I turned the chat
23:01
Speaker 3: room off.
23:02
Speaker 1: Yeah. He does bring up an excellent point, which is
23:05
Speaker 1: the only way that US Americans understand the metric system
23:08
Speaker 1: is what it relates to drugs.
23:13
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's when you have to go back and watch
23:14
Speaker 3: the Nate Bargatzi Yeah, Washington, Yes, when he explains the metrics.
23:20
Speaker 3: I love the American philosophy of the metric system because
23:24
Speaker 3: they tried to introduce it, and I think trade might
23:26
Speaker 3: remember this when we were kids. Yeah, in the early eighties.
23:30
Speaker 2: No, no, it was late seventies. It was Jimmy Carter
23:32
Speaker 2: was oh yeah, they failed.
23:35
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, they said to change all the books to
23:39
Speaker 3: get all the metric system and all of the books
23:41
Speaker 3: needed that it would cost over a billion dollars and
23:44
Speaker 3: the US went Now we're.
23:46
Speaker 6: Good books and also all the highway signs. Oh yeah,
23:51
Speaker 6: it was a big deal. I mean obviously should have
23:54
Speaker 6: done it.
23:55
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, the US was like how much a billion
23:59
Speaker 3: dollars to educate the globally? Absolutely not.
24:03
Speaker 1: That wasn't the issue though it wasn't. It wasn't spending
24:05
Speaker 1: a billion dollars to educate the kids and teach them.
24:09
Speaker 1: Where it failed is having to grandfather in our grandparents
24:14
Speaker 1: to where they would have to learn the new system.
24:17
Speaker 1: That's where it failed teach. What they should have done
24:20
Speaker 1: was just put the signs up with both sets of numbers,
24:24
Speaker 1: so that way the people that learned the American system
24:28
Speaker 1: wouldn't have to change, because God knows, we don't like change.
24:32
Speaker 1: People in general do not like change. I'll tell you
24:34
Speaker 1: right now. They could put that whole thing up for
24:39
Speaker 1: a vote today. Same thing. Let's shift the metric system,
24:43
Speaker 1: because if we take a step back and take our
24:45
Speaker 1: emotions out of it, it just makes sense that we
24:48
Speaker 1: should do it right. But I don't want to. I
24:52
Speaker 1: am forty five years old. I am in no mood
24:54
Speaker 1: to learn anything new. My brain is full. The only
24:57
Speaker 1: way I'm inserting new information into my brain is if
25:00
Speaker 1: it makes me money or makes me happy, or if
25:04
Speaker 1: it's random information that I have no choice over the
25:06
Speaker 1: matter that it stays in my brain that's sports or
25:08
Speaker 1: movie related. Outside of those things, I'm not changing.
25:12
Speaker 3: Okay, Now, I know how we get to for you
25:15
Speaker 3: to stop watching really bad movies is we just title
25:18
Speaker 3: them with the metric system. So like, if it's like
25:21
Speaker 3: a really crappy horror movie, we'll just call it like
25:25
Speaker 3: forty two grams. And you're like, I'm out, I come out.
25:28
Speaker 1: I don't want to watch it. I have no interest.
25:30
Speaker 1: One hundred and twenty seven hours, I'll watch.
25:32
Speaker 3: That thirty eight kilometers out.
25:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hugh, I'll never see it. But I'm a firm
25:42
Speaker 1: believer in letting kids learn because they don't have all
25:46
Speaker 1: the baggage that we do as adults. They're capable of
25:50
Speaker 1: learning things. So that's what you do. If you wanted
25:52
Speaker 1: to introduce it today that this is what they should
25:53
Speaker 1: have done in the seventies, they could do it today.
25:55
Speaker 1: Is I don't have to learn anything new as a
25:58
Speaker 1: middle aged man, but put both sets of numbers on
26:01
Speaker 1: the signs and then teach the kids the metric system.
26:03
Speaker 1: That way, when we all die, the American system pretty
26:07
Speaker 1: much dies with us, and then the kids now have
26:09
Speaker 1: the metric system like the rest of the world, and
26:11
Speaker 1: then it makes sense.
26:12
Speaker 6: Daniel, I hate to pop, you know, burst your balloon
26:15
Speaker 6: on this. Kids today have trouble with manual clocks.
26:20
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, that is a fact. I won't mention who
26:25
Speaker 3: in my house has that issue.
26:28
Speaker 1: Well, considering there's three people in your house. One is
26:30
Speaker 1: your what is your girlfriend? And then there is a
26:35
Speaker 1: is a teenage girl.
26:37
Speaker 3: And I was like, Hey, what time is it? And
26:40
Speaker 3: we were going to the hospital and we had to
26:42
Speaker 3: sign in and she looked up and then looked at
26:44
Speaker 3: her phone, and I was like, you don't know how
26:45
Speaker 3: to read a clock?
26:47
Speaker 1: You know why rise because that's not skibbity. If you
26:52
Speaker 1: know how to read an analog clock, you have no riz.
26:58
Speaker 1: By the way, I have absolutely no idea what I
27:01
Speaker 1: just said.
27:01
Speaker 3: I think you ordered drugs from lofty Cliff. I think that.
27:10
Speaker 7: You're listening to the Treehouse.

27:54
Speaker 1: the website cook dfw dot com. All right, it is
28:00
Speaker 1: Thursday inside the Treehouse, and I think that means it's
28:02
Speaker 1: time for a little throwback inside the treehouse. In honor
28:08
Speaker 1: of our country electing a new president this week, and
28:14
Speaker 1: in honor of something that was brought up a week
28:17
Speaker 1: or two ago inside the Treehouse, I think it's time
28:20
Speaker 1: we throw it all the way back to nineteen sixty
28:23
Speaker 1: four to then President and Texan Lyndon Baines Johnson. LBJ
28:33
Speaker 1: had definitely no ordinary presidency. His time in the White
28:40
Speaker 1: House was interesting, to say the least. And let's I
28:46
Speaker 1: think it's fair to say that he left his mark,
28:49
Speaker 1: including on the pants industry. Because not everyone realizes this,
28:54
Speaker 1: but every communication in the White House is supposed to
28:58
Speaker 1: be recorded, especially when it involves the president for historical
29:01
Speaker 1: record keeping, right, Trey.
29:03
Speaker 2: Yes, Nick, that out the hard way he did?
29:07
Speaker 1: He did. What do you mean there's tapes? Well, I
29:17
Speaker 1: kind of assume LBJ didn't know about the tapes either,
29:19
Speaker 1: because there was one day in the Oval office where
29:22
Speaker 1: he issued national security briefings and alien stuff, to call
29:28
Speaker 1: a man named John Hager because he needed because he
29:32
Speaker 1: needed some new pants. I hope if you've never heard this,
29:38
Speaker 1: you're welcome. Here is LBJ President LBJ ordering pants from
29:42
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four.
29:46
Speaker 12: Hello, Hello, mister Joe. Joe, your father, the one that
29:53
Speaker 12: makes close yet there we're all together, all made me
29:57
Speaker 12: some real lightweight slacks. He just made up on his
30:03
Speaker 12: own triple months ago. It's a kind of a light
30:07
Speaker 12: brown and a light green, rather soft green and soft brown.
30:12
Speaker 12: Now I need about sex pears for some aware. I
30:17
Speaker 12: need about sex pairs where around in the evening. When
30:20
Speaker 12: I come in from work and I can send you
30:23
Speaker 12: a pair, I want him half inch larger in the
30:26
Speaker 12: waist than the where before.
30:28
Speaker 1: I also like to think about how again, this is
30:31
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four. The Red Wave is underway, like the
30:37
Speaker 1: groundwork for Vietnam is being laid. You're fresh off the
30:41
Speaker 1: Bay of Pigs. You know, the commis are doing stuff
30:45
Speaker 1: all around the globe, including you know, doing stuff in Cuba.
30:49
Speaker 3: Your buddy just got shot.
30:52
Speaker 1: Well he's over that apparently. Yeah, this is this is
30:58
Speaker 1: almost a year later after the Kennedy assassination. But that
31:02
Speaker 1: means it's.
31:03
Speaker 2: Time for some new pants.
31:05
Speaker 1: And today's White House, the president is not ordering his
31:08
Speaker 1: own pants. Someone does that for him or her if
31:11
Speaker 1: we ever elect one. I don't think any recent president
31:19
Speaker 1: I can recall her that I've heard of has been
31:22
Speaker 1: calling up, you know, Louis Vatan saying I need some
31:26
Speaker 1: new socks.
31:27
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think this is the reason. This, this phone
31:29
Speaker 3: call is the reason why they no longer allow the
31:31
Speaker 3: president to make phone calls for his own pants.
31:35
Speaker 1: Well, let's hear why two.
31:37
Speaker 12: Or three inches of stuff back in there, so I
31:40
Speaker 12: take them up. I very fifteen pounds a month.
31:44
Speaker 1: What the hell was he eating in the sixties that
31:46
Speaker 1: you're varying ten to fifteen pounds each month?
31:48
Speaker 3: My god, man, I know it's a very stressful job,
31:52
Speaker 3: but it's one of those like if you're in there
31:54
Speaker 3: and gaining weight, like, I don't know how that works.
31:59
Speaker 1: Man, I'm loving it. This is great. They got a
32:01
Speaker 1: kitchen staff twenty four to seven. This is phenomenal. You
32:08
Speaker 1: really do. You had a chef and everything.
32:10
Speaker 12: Yeah, so leave me at least two and a half
32:14
Speaker 12: per inches in the back where I can let them
32:15
Speaker 12: out or take them up, and makes a half inch
32:18
Speaker 12: bigger in the waist, make the pockets at least an
32:21
Speaker 12: inch longer. Money, my money, and my knife, everything fall out. Wait, hello, hello,
32:30
Speaker 12: now another thing with crutch down where your nuts hang.
32:34
Speaker 1: Is all now are into the good stuff. This is
32:37
Speaker 1: the good stuff. As far as LBJ order in his packerst.
32:40
Speaker 3: I don't think anybody ever referred to his nuts as
32:42
Speaker 3: the good stuff.
32:43
Speaker 2: Ever.
32:44
Speaker 1: I think he did.
32:47
Speaker 12: The crutch down where your nuts hang is always a
32:50
Speaker 12: little too tight, So when you make them up, give
32:53
Speaker 12: me an inch that I can let out there.
32:56
Speaker 1: Because they just imagine you're John Hager. You're a clothing
33:00
Speaker 1: down Joe. You're Joe Hager. You're minding your own business
33:04
Speaker 1: making some pants, making clothes, and all of a sudden
33:07
Speaker 1: someone says, hey, President Johnson's on the phone for you.
33:12
Speaker 1: You're like, oh my god, this is amazing. And then
33:16
Speaker 1: after being on the phone with him for about a
33:18
Speaker 1: minute and a half, now you're hearing about how low
33:20
Speaker 1: his nuts hanging can you make plenty of room in
33:22
Speaker 1: your new custom pants that you're going to make for
33:24
Speaker 1: him so President Johnson's Johnson has a room to breathe.
33:28
Speaker 3: Yeah, I also have to understand he's taking notes, like
33:31
Speaker 3: at the beginning of this, like okay, one to two inches, Okay.
33:34
Speaker 3: He varies about ten to fifteen pounds per month, depending on,
33:38
Speaker 3: you know, the stress level that he's at. And he
33:40
Speaker 3: you know, these have to be a light green or
33:42
Speaker 3: a soft green or soft gray, you know, light so
33:45
Speaker 3: he can when he comes home from work, apparently, because.
33:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, because these are evening pants.
33:50
Speaker 3: You know, I often find myself changing in the evening. Pas.
33:56
Speaker 1: It was a different time back then. I mean, think
33:58
Speaker 1: back to uh, think back to mister Rogers. We also
34:00
Speaker 1: we all watched mister Rogers growing up. Right, He had
34:03
Speaker 1: his suit that he had on from whatever job that
34:06
Speaker 1: he supposedly had, coming into his home. And what did't
34:08
Speaker 1: he do? He would leave the tie on, right, but
34:11
Speaker 1: he'd take the jacket off, put on a cardigan. He'd
34:14
Speaker 1: take off his work loafers and then put on his
34:16
Speaker 1: house loafers. I mean you you basically still wore a
34:20
Speaker 1: suit around the house. It's weird.
34:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, please please please finish this call, because it gets
34:29
Speaker 3: really good here.
34:30
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you think it's peaked with nuts,
34:33
Speaker 1: but I don't know.
34:33
Speaker 3: No, no.
34:36
Speaker 12: Fans, these are almost the best that I've had anywhere
34:39
Speaker 12: in the United States. But uh, on that game at weight,
34:43
Speaker 12: they cut me under there. Leave me. You never do
34:48
Speaker 12: have much margin that if you can't leave me about
34:51
Speaker 12: it from the part of the separate around.
34:58
Speaker 3: So he's drinking, right, we can all agree he's drinking.
35:01
Speaker 1: I don't think he's drinking. I think he's I think
35:03
Speaker 1: he's I think he's having himself. Uh, you know, he's
35:05
Speaker 1: probably eating lunch. He's probably making this call get putting
35:08
Speaker 1: in order for pants with Joe Hager on his lunch break.
35:12
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, if you, if you listen to it,
35:14
Speaker 3: if he like when the before the belt, if you
35:16
Speaker 3: listen to it and go he's kind of sauced, it
35:20
Speaker 3: makes the whole conversation makes sense.
35:24
Speaker 2: LBJ was notoriously crude. Mm hmm.
35:27
Speaker 3: Yeah.
35:27
Speaker 6: But I'm also and that's why that's why, you know,
35:29
Speaker 6: everyone who ever worked for him saw his penis because
35:32
Speaker 6: I mean he never closed the door.
35:34
Speaker 2: He wanted to show it off to everyone.
35:36
Speaker 6: Uh, you know Oval office, foreign leaders wiped it out
35:40
Speaker 6: into you know, reporters.
35:42
Speaker 1: Yeah, And in retrospect, I bet Joe Hager was relieved
35:45
Speaker 1: that Johnson just called him because imagine, imagine this is
35:53
Speaker 1: not a phone call. And LBJ walks into Hagar's, you know, shop,
35:56
Speaker 1: and it's like, all right, and he starts pointing at
35:58
Speaker 1: all the all the places that he wants taken in
36:00
Speaker 1: and taken out. And then when he says nuts, that's
36:03
Speaker 1: obviously gonna come out. And then when he's talking about
36:06
Speaker 1: riding a wire fence, he's going to be doing the
36:08
Speaker 1: gestures like he's riding a wire fence. And then you
36:11
Speaker 1: got to listen to him eat and then belch in
36:13
Speaker 1: your face. But that's still not the worst part.
36:16
Speaker 12: For best part, And h round under my back to
36:20
Speaker 12: my bung hole out there.
36:24
Speaker 1: So now you know if in person, LBJ is gonna
36:26
Speaker 1: be turning around and pointing at it all right here,
36:28
Speaker 1: I need an inch or two mark right here. And
36:31
Speaker 1: you know, you see this right here in my bung hole.
36:33
Speaker 3: You see it?
36:33
Speaker 1: Do you see it? Do you see it? Can you
36:34
Speaker 1: see it?
36:35
Speaker 2: Can you smell it? Especially Hager Slacks was based in Dallas.
36:42
Speaker 6: LBJ looked at him and goes, you've seen what happens
36:44
Speaker 6: to people I don't like in Dallas.
36:49
Speaker 1: Or maybe that's why, or maybe that's why LBJ called
36:52
Speaker 1: instead of showing up in person.
36:56
Speaker 3: And can you scotch guard these? So nothing nothing, nothing
36:59
Speaker 3: land anything that lands on it slides right off.
37:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, right here along. My bunghole stays clean. And you
37:05
Speaker 1: know you want to know how my bunghole's clean, Sniff it.
37:09
Speaker 1: Come on, sniff the presidential.
37:10
Speaker 12: Bunghole, my bunghole so I can read it out there
37:14
Speaker 12: if I need to. Now, be sure you got the
37:17
Speaker 12: best slippers in them. These are good that I have.
37:21
Speaker 13: And because there's one thing you don't want is you
37:26
Speaker 13: don't want President Johnson's Johnson free roaming around the White
37:30
Speaker 13: House because of a faulty zipper.
37:34
Speaker 3: Is it the zipper's fault.
37:40
Speaker 12: Was coming? I will sure be grateful. Where would you like.
37:44
Speaker 1: To Actually, the other thing you think about with these,
37:47
Speaker 1: make sure you get the good zippers. I think what
37:49
Speaker 1: he means is you want to make sure the zippers
37:51
Speaker 1: are on the outside, not the inside, because when you've
37:53
Speaker 1: got to when you're Johnson's as big as President Johnson's was,
37:57
Speaker 1: right at a certain point, they actually have arms of
38:00
Speaker 1: its own. So if you have the zipper accessible on
38:03
Speaker 1: the inside, then it could actually undo it itself and
38:05
Speaker 1: then go hello like.
38:07
Speaker 2: An elephant trunk.
38:08
Speaker 6: Yeah, all of a sudden, it's grabbing a peanut off
38:11
Speaker 6: the desk.
38:16
Speaker 1: I mean, that's it's national security if that thing just
38:19
Speaker 1: jumps out in the middle of a of a you know,
38:22
Speaker 1: a briefing or you're you have another head of state
38:25
Speaker 1: in the Oval office, and you know, and then you know,
38:28
Speaker 1: it's just eating peanuts off the resolute.
38:30
Speaker 3: Desk scare of the Japanese ambassador.
38:37
Speaker 12: Coming. I would sure be grateful. Where would you like,
38:41
Speaker 12: White House? I'm just sure well appreciate this. So I
38:44
Speaker 12: need it more than anything, and I.
38:46
Speaker 1: Need this more than global peace. I need this more
38:49
Speaker 1: than I need then I need an updated atomic moomb
38:52
Speaker 1: I need this more than I need the commis out
38:54
Speaker 1: of Asia. Uh yeah, this is the most important thing
38:57
Speaker 1: going on in the White House right now. Nineteen sixty
38:59
Speaker 1: four is me needing new pants space race. How can
39:06
Speaker 1: you be expected to race to space in subpar pants?
39:14
Speaker 2: You can't, especially when your anus isn't comfortable.

41:54
Speaker 1: Other birthdays today Morgan Spurlock from Super Size Me. According
41:59
Speaker 1: to this it says he's fifty four, but I'm pretty
42:02
Speaker 1: sure he died earlier this year.
42:04
Speaker 3: He did. He died from the arterial disease.
42:09
Speaker 1: For a man that lived on McDonald's for however many
42:13
Speaker 1: days and made a documentary out of it, became famous for.
42:15
Speaker 3: It, and then it killed him. Died a heart disease. Yes,
42:20
Speaker 3: you gotta.
42:21
Speaker 1: You have to understand that when the camera stops, so
42:25
Speaker 1: should you. Yeah, the documentary was called Supersize Me right.
42:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a really really good documentary as well.
42:37
Speaker 3: But he, I mean he he paid the price for it, true,
42:41
Speaker 3: true artiste.
42:43
Speaker 1: So I never actually saw it, and it was so
42:45
Speaker 1: long ago that that came out. I think it was
42:47
Speaker 1: early mid two thousands, was the premise of his documentary.
42:51
Speaker 1: Because he lived on McDonald's for like a month.
42:55
Speaker 3: Or thirty days, thirty days, every single meal for thirty days.
42:59
Speaker 1: And did he gain weight or lose weight?
43:01
Speaker 3: He lost weight, okay, just because it was so horribly
43:06
Speaker 3: bad for your body, like you weren't actually getting nutrients
43:10
Speaker 3: and vitamins and things that you need.
43:12
Speaker 1: It was it was more chemicals versus actual food stuff.
43:17
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I mean McDonald's is good every now and again,
43:22
Speaker 3: you shouldn't live on it, no, uh, And he was
43:26
Speaker 3: doing I think he did, like I think he varied
43:28
Speaker 3: the meals up per day, but it was always like
43:30
Speaker 3: quarter pound of a cheese or a big mac for
43:32
Speaker 3: lunch or whatever. So but he did their breakfast every
43:35
Speaker 3: morning and then lunch and dinner snack was an apple
43:39
Speaker 3: pie and all that good stuff.
43:41
Speaker 1: And ironically, nowadays you actually have a few healthy options
43:45
Speaker 1: on the menu whereas you know, back then when he
43:48
Speaker 1: shot the documentary, I don't really think there were many
43:50
Speaker 1: healthy options on the menu.
43:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean even their salad isn't It isn't the healthiest,
43:57
Speaker 3: but I mean it's close enough. Like the only thing
43:59
Speaker 3: that gets an A on the McDonald's menu is lettuce.
44:05
Speaker 1: You just can't. You just can't put it near anything.
44:09
Speaker 1: I mean, that's kind of the downside of lettuce anyway.
44:11
Speaker 1: It's like you know, I mean, because like they say
44:13
Speaker 1: that you can eat a salad, and a salad can
44:16
Speaker 1: have more calories in it than a big mac, depending
44:18
Speaker 1: on how much dressing you put on it along with
44:21
Speaker 1: other toppings. And I know that from first hand experience
44:25
Speaker 1: because I remember as a kid going to Mazio's. Right
44:28
Speaker 1: going to Mazio's. It was one of those Midwestern places
44:32
Speaker 1: that it had the pizza and then the salad bar
44:35
Speaker 1: and video games in one section of the restaurant, and
44:38
Speaker 1: it was a big Friday night Martinsville local Homa. Let
44:40
Speaker 1: me tell you the Knights that we went to Mazio's
44:43
Speaker 1: and that salad bar was a gold mine because I'd
44:48
Speaker 1: get a little bit of lettuce, but that was mainly
44:50
Speaker 1: just honestly none to think about it. I don't know
44:52
Speaker 1: why I bothered to get the lettuce. I didn't really
44:53
Speaker 1: ever eat it. I'm like six seven years old. I'd
44:56
Speaker 1: get those crunchy breadsticks and about a gallon gallon and
44:59
Speaker 1: a half a rant, uh croutons, some cheese, some bacon.
45:05
Speaker 3: Did they have the cubed ham? Did the hell?
45:07
Speaker 1: Yeah?
45:08
Speaker 3: Oh yeah?
45:09
Speaker 1: The hand the turkey. Yeah. And that was my appetizer
45:13
Speaker 1: before I got the pizza. I guess what I'm getting
45:17
Speaker 1: at is that Morgan's furlock died this year and I
45:20
Speaker 1: may not be far by, or just the fact that
45:24
Speaker 1: I made it to ten was doing pretty good.
45:28
Speaker 3: That's why you were running into playground equipment because I.
45:31
Speaker 1: Was running on ranch.

Speaker 3: doing the same thing. I'm like a little bit of lettuce,
47:57
Speaker 3: some cheese. Uh, and then I went for the ham
