long, long week that's been filled with some good news. Rangers in the
0:46
World series. Yeah, the UH Congress finally has themselves a speaker for now.
0:58
Yeah, exactly, it might be we might we might be a new
1:00
one in thirty days. We'll see. It's it's we'll see so much going
1:07
on in the world, most of which we will not discuss in here because
1:11
that would be sad and demoralizing and everything that this Treehouse stands against. Absolutely
1:21
we stand for. Stupid. Friday episode of the Treehouse Podcast is the beacon
1:26
in the field of Stupid. Which is a great time to mention to you
1:33
our friends at the Dallas Comedy Club who are so gracious to sponsor this year
1:38
Stupid because there's things in the Treehouse that we love, and comedy is near
1:42
the top of that list. So this weekend you need something to do in
1:48

home for comedy in Dallas Fort Worth. Dallas Comedy Club, Dallas Dash Comedy
2:16
Club dot com. I have to admit to you, guys, I'm still
2:23
tired. It's been a week for me trying to figure out housing situations and
2:34
me thrusting all the packing duties and things of moving onto my wife because I
2:39
have been knee deep in producing editing right and all this stuff for the Halloween
2:45
special I've been. I was doing it almost NonStop from Saturday through like Wednesday
2:53
morning. Wow. It was interesting one because it's challenging, but it's also
3:05
interesting because as much as I could complain about how long it took and finding
3:09
sound effects for things, which Trey thank you for helping me find so many
3:14
of them, but you can never have enough when you're doing an audio production.
3:21
See Hollywood, they can get away television movies, they can get away
3:24
with more things. Because it's visual. You don't have to have the sound
3:30
for everything. When you're doing a special or a program that is audio based,
3:37
you have to find the sound for everything. Otherwise it's just someone telling
3:39
you something and that's not fun or interesting. And I'm sure and I know
3:47
you and like you listen to one hundred different footsteps on a floor before you
3:55
found the right one. See, I want to say you don't know me,
4:04
but the truth is I have. I now know every possible folded footstep
4:11
in production libraries, in every corner of the Internet. Yes, I know
4:15
the file names to give you for seeing like a hard soul shoes on hardwood,
4:23
Okay. I know where to point you in the direction to find cowboy
4:28
boots going through grass. Interesting. I even because we have Jerry Caldwell in
4:33
the Halloween special. I also know where to find Stiletto's running on cement in
4:40
a production libraries somewhere. I also know all the different places of the Internet
4:46
to go to to find splash noises, but not just any splash, because
4:51
I need specifically not splash of things going into the water. There was at
4:56
least three instances where I needed sound effects for some one or something coming out
5:00
of the water. Those are really hard to find. Now are there specific
5:05
ones? Like flawing? Flailing is not a good search term when you're searching
5:12
for production stuff. The good news is I have experienced doing this. So
5:15
when twenty five years working in radio and doing these Halloween or Christmas specials that
5:19
we've done throughout the years doing radio production in general, you you learn how
5:26
to search for things. And because of that, when you find a library,
5:30
especially online or a computer based you know the words to use, like
5:33
slip and fall or if you need if you need something to sound like,
5:38
you know it's it's really descriptive words. I needed to find blood splatter,
5:42
not splat splatter, gotch I needed. I need to find bones crunching and
5:46
breaking. But I also know that when you go and look up these sounds
5:51
in these libraries, it'll be the sound, but it's not the sound you
5:57
want. I'll give you a good example in the special. I tell you
6:00
to grab a machete off the edge of the boat and hit whiskey barrels so
6:03
liquid can spew forth. M H. I couldn't quite find the exact thing
6:11
I was looking for for the whiskey to spew out of the barrels. Gotcha,
6:15
But I found plenty of what they're called impact. Like if you're searching
6:19
a production library, you want a sword impact wood, Okay, gotcha,
6:25
gotcha. The problem is when you go and find it, this is what
6:28
it sounds like. Oh that sucks when you're doing the thing and you're like,
6:32
that doesn't sound cool. That's why a lot of times in films they
6:36
have these cool noises that they have to absolutely just create. Like all the
6:41
cool stuff in Star Wars, all those things was the folly Department, the
6:45
follyings where it's the guys that create sound. They would just go find things
6:49
and create them, and that now becomes Star Wars sound effects. Those things
6:56
did not exist beforehand. They just went basically, they went outside, they
6:59
went to garage just they stuck their fingers and light sockets, They licked power
7:02
lines and shook metal sheets and things. They created those noises. And so
7:06
when you find the real noise of the thing that you're looking for, it
7:12
typically sucks. So it has to be bigger and bolder, and sorry,
7:15
I'm going on way too long about audio production on a podcast that's supposed to
7:18
be entertaining for people. No, it's like I mean, one of the
7:23
best examples is Darth Vader breathing is scuba gear. Ah gotcha, mh.
7:30
They searched high and low and then came upon that, I know. Bones
7:35
breaking. Sometimes they'll they'll just take a celery, like a couple of sticks
7:40
of celery or stocks of celery, and a lot of times in bones breaking
7:44
is one of my favorite examples of this. Where you go and look up
7:47
a sound and you get the things as bones breaking, and it sounds weak.
7:51
It doesn't sound as loud and dangerous as it needs to be. So
7:56
instead of looking up a bone break, you should then go and find like
8:00
a redwood snapping in half. That's the sound you want. Oh yeah,
8:03
that's good. Yeah. So you have to learn, you have to kind
8:07
of figure out how to how to navigate those waters, kind of like the
8:11
three of Us did in the Halloween Special twenty twenty three, Three of us
8:16
on a boat, no hose. Maybe maybe maybe we can write the hose
8:22
in for the sequel Gewel's Two Boats and Hose. So anyway, I feel
8:35
like I have earned this Friday. We all have because we did a lot
8:39
of work. We put a lot of work into that special. I will
8:43
say that this Halloween special that we have done is truly, truly special.
8:54
It's extra stupid and the most terrifying thing in it is, without a doubt,
8:58
our acting. Yeah, I've never I've never done voiceover stuff, so
9:05
that was kind of fun for me. You're very You're a very good director.
9:09
I will say that, thank you. You're very good at giving direction
9:11
on how you want the lines read and done, so that was kind of
9:16
cool to do. And so I don't know if I can put this on
9:20
I have to listen to it. I don't know if I'll put it on
9:22
my on my resume as having done radio voiceover stuff. But I'm just glad
9:30
that there's no well no, the writer's strike is over, but this,
9:33
but the actors strike is still going on. I might be careful promoting it
9:37
too much, Raj, because I don't want you getting in trouble with the
9:39
union, because that would actually make our production kind of a scab thing,
9:43
and it's not meant to be. Yeah, No, I don't I don't
9:46
think it would be. I don't think it I don't think it would be.
9:48
I'll have to have to actually look at the rules now that you brought
9:52
that up. While you're reaching, I have to know the rule of clarification.
9:56
Yeah, the rules on that are so arcane and weird like us.
10:01
Well they are because there's exemptions for like Saturday Night Live, for the late
10:05
night shows. There's there's all these exemptions like why with the writers now backworking
10:11
they can do late night shows and all this other stuff, and it is
10:16
so I was listening to someone to explain all the different rules and fascinating how
10:22
they've done that. Yeah, but I joined the I believe because I joined
10:26
the show before the strike. I believe, right before the strike went official.
10:31
I think I would like if I needed to get an exemption, I
10:35
could. I don't think you need it, but yeah, because technically it's
10:39
like if you're a variety show like kind of like this, then you're you're
10:43
exempt. Yeah, as long as you're not promoting something else that would be
10:48
embargoed by SAGO is why, which is why when we had our buddy tone
10:54
Bell on, he did not promote the Netflix show Surival of the Thickest Thickest.
11:00
Yeah, he didn't promote that because he was not allowed to. That
11:03
doesn't mean we couldn't, right, But now it goes even as far as
11:07
for Halloween, Sag sent out of things saying not to dress up as any
11:11
of the characters on any of the Stricken shows. Okay, God, because
11:18
that's technically promoting a show that's on strength. It's it's very weird. But
11:24
if I wanted to dress up as, you know, a character from a
11:28
TV show from years ago that's not currently in production, I would correct,
11:31
not me, but you would be okay, I would be all right,
11:33
gotcha? Yeah. But if I were to go as Tone Bell uh Survival
11:39
of the Thickest, I'd get in trouble. I'd like to see you in
11:43
that, in those in those costumes with that hair. Me too. I'd
11:50
rather see Trey, but I don't want him getting But it wouldn't be by
11:56
Sag. Oh No, that'd be a completely different organization, all right.
12:03
As I mentioned, today is bed Day, October twenty seven, twenty three.
12:09
Time for birthdays he plays or played. I'm not sure if it's on
12:13
right now or not. Barry Goldberg on ABC's The Goldbergs, that is Troy
12:18
Genteel. He is thirty today. It's one of those shows I've always heard
12:22
really good things about, but I just have not watched it. Yeah,
12:28
it's a good show watch. I think Jeff Garland is the dad. I
12:33
believe. Ye. I've known Jeff for a few years. He's a solid
12:35
dude. And then my buddy Brian Kallen, I believe was got the offshoot
12:41
of it. There wasn't. I think there was a spinoff. They got
12:43
canceled. I think when he got I think he might have gotten me too.
12:48
I don't remember. We don't really talk anymore, but he was the
12:50
jym, the gym teacher. I believe it's a very funny spoof of the
12:56
eighties, and I think maybe what we should do is start up in actual
13:00
sitcom and just call it Raj's Friends. That would be fun. That would
13:05
that would be a good That would be a good show. I don't know
13:07
what. I don't know what anybody would do in it, but it'd be
13:11
a good show. It'd be a very funny show to watch. Well,
13:13
it'd be a change of pace for once they consider I do and tell stories
13:16
about you. Yeah, it'd be not it'll be all like the people.
13:20
That would be on that show would be we could just call none of these
13:22
guys got me too. Everyone's appropriate. I have to I have to ask,
13:28
what is what is tud me too? The whole me too movement?
13:33
Oh oh okay, it sounds like you were saying that got me You said
13:39
got me Tooed, I thought you meant like you was in me, not
13:41
me too, like you you move bad, bad things to women type stuff.
13:46
Yeah, I feel like it needs to have a different uh term for
13:50
it, because obviously it's confusing. Have you been me too? Me too?
13:56
Well? The Eddie Yift has a very funny bit about this where he
13:58
talks about the hashtag me too, and he's like, that's great, and
14:03
I'm glad of you know, you got to have the hashtag goes. But
14:05
my generation that was the pound symbol, so that looks terrible. So yeah,
14:13
yeah, yeah, but it'd also be a yeah, the whole show
14:16
would be a bunch of guys that appropriate with people. I don't know what
14:20
the show would be called nobody took their junk out on camera or whatever in
14:26
the text, I don't know, but yeah, no, it's a very
14:31
funny spin off of the eighties. I think it was it's really well done.
14:35
Other birthdays today, Ozzy Osbourne's daughter Kelly is thirty nine, not the
14:39
other one. I forget the other daughter's name. There was another daughter who
14:43
actually was not on the Osbourne She wanted nothing to do with it. She's
14:46
one of those people that if you go back and watch those shows if they're
14:50
available somewhere, she's the one typically blurred out the background. Amy Amy,
14:54
Amy Osborne, Thank you. Patrick Fugit is forty one today. He is
15:01
from the Cinemax horror series Outcast, but I think we all mostly know him
15:05
from Almost Famous, played Young Will and Almost Famous. He was also the
15:11
cop who hated Ben Affleck and Gone Girl, which is understandable. There's something
15:16
else he was into, but I'm drawing a blank on on what it was.
15:20
But he's still going not as I mean, it's hard to top,
15:24
you know, that role in Almost Famous, but he's still going. So
15:26
good for him, And we didn't get a chance to really celebrate it a
15:31
whole lot because we're not all together at the same time. Raj, how
15:33
was your birthday there? It was really nice, man. I had a
15:37
very very good day. I had a nice breakfast, solid lunch and just
15:43
kind of did what I wanted to do. And is it a nice when
15:46
you get that one day a year? Yeah, I mean, I just
15:50
you know, I was telling my girlfriend this, it's like birthdays for first
15:54
generation Indian kids, it just depended like like some some have like rate amazing
16:00
experiences with like bouncy houses and whatever. Like my like the birthdays in India
16:07
for them, like weren't a big deal in India, like when in your
16:10
teenage and young adult, like you take your first like you the birthday person,
16:15
You treat your friends out. They don't buy anything for you, So
16:19
it just was never a big deal. And like I have, I have
16:23
a couple of pictures where you could see the saddest like just people around the
16:29
table and it was like there's one where it's just a sheet like the cake
16:33
that you would get at tom Thumb that they already had made. They just
16:36
had to do the writing on it. And this was like there's a Batman
16:40
and a Ramen and I think it just hit Marvel on the other side of
16:42
the cake for no apparent reason, like and then it goes like Wolverine whatever,
16:48
and everybody around the table, like three people are crying and I'm the
16:52
only one smiling, and I was like, that's my birthday. That's what
16:55
I remember it being, and like I wanted to invite as many of my
17:00
classmates as I could to come over, because nobody in my family knew the
17:04
words to the Happy Birthday. They just kept singing you, Happy birthday to
17:10
you, and that's all. It would be, like, there's no diarage,
17:14
there's no there's no pitch. That's just and it would just go on.
17:17
And at one point, I'm just like, I got to blow these
17:18
candles out, and this could go on for an hour, and even that's
17:22
when I knew I was funny. I'm like, I just want to see
17:25
how long I could keep this going without blowing out any candles and happy but
17:30
just over and over and over again. After about two minutes, I was
17:33
like, Okay, I gotta love candles out. So I'm definitely the opposite.
17:37
I don't enjoy being the center of attention for unwarranted purposes. So I've
17:42
disliked birthdays ever since my first one. I cried and screamed when they were
17:47
singing Happy Birthday all the way up to and including my nineteenth or twentieth birthday,
17:52
where my family took me to Texas Roadhouse, okay, or for lunch
17:59
and I hidden bathroom for about forty five minutes to avoid the napkin dance.
18:03
Oh gotcha? Okay? Yeah, And every every event in our family was
18:08
at El Phoenix. So birthday, anniversary, anything anybody was celebrating, it
18:15
was El Phoenix because that was the only place my vegetarian father could eat.
18:19
And I kind of assumed that your dad would have taken you to Taco Bell,
18:22
given how that was. That was the that was the high end version
18:26
of Taco Bell, And so the conversation would just be like, it's your
18:30
birthday, where do you want to eat? And I'm like, let's just
18:33
try somewhere new, okay, whatever do you want? And I'm like,
18:36
all right, let's go. Let's try this new place. You know PF
18:40
Chang. It's like, what do your father eat that? And I'm like,
18:42
how about El Phoenix? Yeah, if you want to, okay.
18:48
I've always felt bad for Tray though, because on his birthday, I think
18:51
he has to share the he has to share the cake with Belt. It
18:57
actually Belt gives me a piece. Visit us online at Treehouse on air dot

20:11
you and I have talked for decades now, and you've taught me a lot
20:15
in that time, and I appreciate it. And one of the things that
20:18
you have told me is that there is actually a specific date that is the
20:22
best day to buy a house. Can you do me a favor and give
20:26
me a refresher on that explain that for us? Yeah, according to the
20:29
National Association Realtors, after decades and decades of researching and all their information,
20:36
they say October fifteenth, right around the corner here is the best day to
20:38
buy a house. Why because many people haven't filed their taxes yet. All
20:42
the CPAs are packed right now. Realtors are trying to file their last minute
20:48
taxes. Many people are out there going, I haven't done my taxes yet.
20:52
I need to get them done. So what happens is that means less
20:55
people are out there looking at homes. The best day to buy a house
20:57
is October fifteenth because that's when sellers will discount their houses more. And right
21:03
now some houses are going very fast. Some houses are sitting on the market
21:07
right now. And Dan, you've got to use a great realtor to know
21:11
what the what the ins and outs are. And we just recommend to people
21:14
pick up the phone and give us a call because you must be preapproved unless
21:18
you're paying cash. You must be preapproved because the seller want to know are
21:22
you for real? And you need to know, Hey, how much am
21:23
I going to qualify for? What's my payments look like? And everything that
21:27
goes into that. And Rodney and his team been doing this now for over
21:30

22:52
done, so now let's get into some really, really seriously stupid things because
23:00
already had fun searching this week. I just imagine Trey working at the bar
23:06
and he's just probably being spoken to by a twenty two year old. He
23:10
just like uh uh hunh, pulls his phone out and just starts doing show
23:12
prep. Not far from it, although I did have a fascinating experience on
23:22
Monday Night. What was that a woman and who looked exactly and sounded like
23:32
Gene casem If you don't know who that is, google it if she was
23:37
the epitone of Ditzy Blonde in eighties and nineties sitcoms. She was on Cheers,
23:41
she played Carla's ex wife, Yes, and a bunch of others.
23:47
She was on Night Cored, a bunch of other stuff. So this one
23:49
was at the bar, and she was very drunk, and she pulled her
23:55
boob out and esquirted the guy next to her with breast milk. I'm sorry,
24:02
and he liked it. And although I have asked everyone in the you
24:07
know, service industry, you see a lot of weird stuff, and that
24:10
tops everything. But and that guy was like, that didn't happen to me.
24:14
Since I was in the strip club in Houston ten years ago, It's
24:17
like, oh my, wow, Wow, that is a lot to unpack.
24:19
I have many questions. Okay, first of all, I've known Houston
24:26
is dirty, but I didn't know that. Second of all, did this
24:33
guy know the lady before she started him with the breast milk? No?
24:36
So they had was that how they So that's how they met. Yeah,
24:41
she was with I have boyfriend, husband whatever, and yeah, no,
24:48
okay, all right. My third question is how I mean she you know,
24:53
pulled her boob out and squeezed her nipple and out came milk. A
24:57
poor question on my part, like to amend yep, I second that motion.
25:04
Three B why I I I my sense of drunk people for a long
25:12
time ago, so I get that, But I mean, like, was
25:17
she doing it because like, let's go through the emotions. Was she doing
25:19
it because she was happy? Because she was mad? Funny? She was
25:26
happy? She was she had been at another table singing the famous two Live
25:33
Crew song and then somehow talking to this guy. I I do not know
25:41
the the ins and outs of the conversation, and I just know the end
25:44
result. So I I there's a lot of gray area. I I have
25:47
to and and what leads one to that point? I do not know?
25:52
Yeh? Does I mean it's like like you said it? I mean,
25:55
was she so excited about the Rangers going to the World Series that that was
25:57
the way she could express her sol was by exposing her her breast and spice
26:02
breast? He actually, yeah? I Or did the guy next to her
26:10
say something really insulting and instead of shooting with a gun, she shot him
26:14
with a boob? No, it wasn't done out of out of anger.
26:17
Right now there so it I I don't know if it was flirtation. I
26:22
don't know if she and her boyfriend husband or swing, I don't know.
26:26
I don't know if that has worked for them in the past. I'd like
26:30
to I'd like to, I'd like to amend Dan's three B and mine uh
26:36
thirty six d uh fittings? Do you then uh? For future uh?
26:48
For future guests? Patrons? I guess do you do you ban this person
26:55
because she didn't technically hurt anybody. Everyone seemed to enjoy you better not,
27:00
because there are there are factions in this world that if you wrong one,
27:07
you have wronged them all. One is cyclists. If you say something bad
27:12
or making off joke about a cyclist getting heard or something like that, they
27:17
will come out and droves to get you. Another one is breastfeeding. The
27:22
breastfeeders of America will defend their rights and privileges and all those things here too
27:29
within to breastfeed, how when, where, who? Whatever they see fit?
27:33
Well? Two things if I'm if I do offend cyclist, which I
27:37
have, uh, and there's way too many Lance Armstrong one ball jokes that
27:42
if they did come I feel like there's enough of those. Yeah. But
27:47
like if they did come out and droves, I would, I would,
27:49
I would get away from them. But banking hard left and no too,
27:56
she wasn't breastfeeding somebody technically that could have That could be that if that guy
28:02
didn't find it funny, Depending on a phobia or whatever, or a religion
28:07
or whatever. He could have found that harmful and or offensive. So she
28:11
was curious to ask a police officer if that would be considered assault assault right,
28:18
I don't know, but it would, like I guess, I guess
28:19
at that point, it just depends on the recipient. If if he stumbs
28:22
up, you're cool. But if he stumbs down, you might be going
28:25
to jail. Do you do you or do you walk up to that lady?
28:26
And as the manager, Trey, do you walk up and go excuse
28:30
me, no outside food or drink? T looks down on that. Yeah,
28:41
what do you say in that moment? I stuned just you you you
28:49
need to leave? I think I think you nailed this answer right there.
28:52
Yeah, we were all. It was so dumbfounding that it took. Luckily
29:00
we had a security guy there who escorted her out, and she really didn't
29:06
want to go. She didn't really think she had done anything wrong. And
29:07
like I said, the recipient, he thought it was great. I think
29:14
most people would not put me on the side of I would not be happy
29:18
to get scorted in the face by the breast milk, especially straight from the
29:22
source. That's when you that's a that's a hard day to find out you're
29:25
lactose intolerant? Is that? Is that what the breastfeeding community calls people that
29:38
disliked them. Guess they're just lactose intolerant. I hate you for having said
29:47
that. I'm sorry. Are you lactose intolerance? Is that what it is?

32:02
If you find yourself in the situation like I'm in right now where I'm
32:07
under contract to sell my home in Dallas, you want someone on your side
32:10
who will absolutely scare the Bejesus out of the other side's real estate agent.
32:15
And that's kind of what you've done, Jacqueline. Good job. Yeah,
32:19
they came to you and they said, hey, there's a sewer leak,
32:21
and I said, I would love to know how they know that. The
32:23
only way to really really know in this case would be to get in the
32:27
crawl space, lay on your back, and have somebody upstairs on ground level
32:30
running all the fixtures invert visually identifying a leak. But I just had Oliver
32:36
at your house. We know it wasn't leaking, and I'm one hundred percent
32:39
all about calling the bluff. We'd love to know where your party is identifying
32:44
the leaks at. Even more, we'd like pictures, and I'd like to
32:45
know their license number, because I one hundred percent think that it's just like
32:51
a handyman or a general contractor throwing things out there to drive the price down
32:54
again. That's that's their problem, not yours. If they don't like the
32:58
price, they shouldn't have made an offer at the price that they were willing
33:00
to go to. They're looking to pigeonhole you into bringing the price tag down,
33:04
and as far as plumbing goes, we're not going to allow that to
33:06
happen. And as my understanding goes, Daniel Cook is not going to allow
33:08
that to happen on your roof either. You want good people on your side
33:13
when it comes to a real estate transaction, whether you're the buyer or the
33:16

34:27
details when they become available and we get everything ironed up until then, May
34:31
I plug something real fast? I'm just just based on the content so far
34:38
of today's show with the breast Milk and all the apps play from the football
34:43
podcast yesterday, I'm just a little wary of your verb. On Saturday,
34:50
I will be in front of Big Al's down the Hatch and Downtown Walks a
34:54
Hatchie for the Bob Phillops Texas Country Reporter Festival. So if you down that
35:00
way, please come say hi, buy a beer shot whatever. He has
35:04
a festival I mean Al, I mean I mean Bob Phillips. Yes,
35:08
every year and it draws like thousands and thousands of people. It's really Yes.
35:15
I thought it was a joke at first when I went down there last
35:19
year because Al's wife is my best friend Amy, and and you're talking about
35:22
Al from Cratick Show, from cratic Show, Big Al. And the only
35:25
reason I say that is because while Big Al, I think is better known
35:29
there, there was a second Big Al that used to have a Hamburger place
35:32
in North Arlington. When I was there. The difference there was he was
35:39
not actually big and he also was not black. But uh so, yeah,
35:46
it's amazing and it's it's actually entertaining. I mean, they have the
35:51
food is really good. They bring their food trucks from all over and surprisingly,
35:55
like I said, thousands of people go down there for it. So
35:58
what are they dude? They have music all day and there's all sorts of
36:06
I mean, think about it. I'm sure we're aging ourselves talking. I
36:09
mean, although it's still on Texas Country reporter Bob Phillips went around the state
36:14
and like a little magazine show highlighting people who did you know, arts and
36:17
craftsy things and this and that. So yeah, it's a bunch of people
36:21
that make everything from you know, trinkets and metalworks and so shirts clothing,
36:28
all, pretty much anything you can think of. Not get I give that
36:31
guy credit me. He turned an entire career after just going around and asking
36:36
people, what do you do? The DQ guy, right, that's who
36:38
we're talking about. Yes, at a long time, At one time he
36:43
was. He was the guy before the two guys that, for whatever reason,
36:49
spurned controversy because they seem like some people thought they were gay or something.
36:52
But no, yeah, Bob Phillips came before those guys, even though
36:54
I actually liked those cords. Okay, I think I remember this guy.
36:59
It just goes to like mom and pop shops or whatever likes. He's like
37:02
the diners, drivings and knives before guy, fiery kind of thing. Yeah
37:07
what I remember? Yeah right, yeah, no, no, you've got
37:10
it. You've absolutely got it. Yeah, he's got a festival. Uh
37:15
huh wow that is and and and thousands of people. You say, it
37:21
really makes you think that anything truly is possible, Like maybe one day we
37:25
could have a festival. We I think we need to address this now.
37:30
Uh that this time, this time next year, we need to have a
37:35
festival. Oh okay, good, I thought you were saying this time next
37:38
year. Maybe we'll be big enough that we could have a booth at Bob
37:40
Phillips Festival. Oh I'm sorry, Should we just maybe step this one?
37:47
I don't know, I don't know how much, don't know how much the
37:52
boots cost. But yeah, okay, let's uh well then uh yeah,
37:57
we should. We have to figure out how to have our own festival.
38:00
That will Where do we have downtown? Where where is downtown Treehouse? Where
38:04
would that man? He's got walks of Hatchie on lock? Apparently so it's
38:09
already been done. We can't. I don't want to step on Phillips's hood,
38:14
on his territory. I don't want The last thing we want is to
38:15
have a turf war with a country reporter. Yeah that's right. I don't
38:20
want to get bitch slap with a steak finger basket for two on two reasons.
38:28
It'd be hot and how insulting for Inn't it? All right? We'll
38:35
get together some ideas, we'll brainstorm. We'll come up at the Treehouse festival.
38:38
Really, all you need to have a festival is like a couple of
38:40
booths and and we'll get Fletcher's corny dogs there. Everybody be happy. We'll
38:45
pull up in a clown car. Now it's a speaking of parties. Maybe
39:01
something we could have at our Treehouse Podcast festival. Maybe we could have a
39:12
taste testing of the brand new Pepper X, which is now the hottest hot
39:17
pepper in the world. The guy that made it broke his own Guinness Heat
39:22
record for making the Pepper X. Okay, so this is the same guy
39:29
that gave us the Carolina Reaper. Right, he decided that's not good enough.
39:35
I have not maimed nearly enough people in my life that I need to
39:38
still concoct hotter peppers. His name is ed Currie, South Carolina hot pepper
39:45
expert who crossbred and grew the Carolina Reaper that is hotter than most pepper sprays
39:51
that police use to subdue other festivals. He has broken his own world record
39:58
with a pepper that is three times times hotter than the Carolina Reaper. Wow,
40:04
why, I don't know. This is one of those times where I'm
40:08
I think back on the line that Jeff Goldbloom had in Jurassic Park, where
40:14
scientists are so worried about whether or not they could they didn't stop and ask
40:17
if they should. Uh yeah, what what do you what? Do you
40:24
use it for? Like Indian food hat is very spicy, like we use
40:29
the Serrano, we use ghost pepper, things like that, Like, uh,
40:32
what do you what would you use this in? What is the I
40:36
always assume that the spices that Indians put in their food was to get their
40:42
culinary was to get revenge on the English eating their food. Yes, that
40:47
was kind of my assumption as to where it started. By saying to these
40:52
to these English people, who are you know, taking over their land and
40:53
you know, all these terrible things to the to the to the Indian people
40:58
like oh yeah, this is this is normal to us. Here you eat
41:00
this the next thing on the ground, crying their way back to London.
41:04
Yes, but then they also were like when they got back to London found
41:07
themselves missing it. So they were like, hey can you come here too,
41:09
And we're like that was part of the plant. Now Ptail is the
41:15
number one surname in all of the UK. Yeah. So as far as
41:21
the purpose of this pepper, I think it's other than just for me to
41:24
alliterate unnecessarily. It has a lot to do with this guy just trying to
41:29
outdo himself because you know what people will say especially when it comes to motivational
41:34
things. Your only competition is with yourself. Don't worry about what anybody else
41:37
is doing. You just measure your health against yourself and that's all you need.
41:42
And that's that's that's actually driving this guy to two insane amounts of heat.
41:49
Yeah, you're feeling your You're feeling your Indian vibe dan because that's a
41:52
Hindu proverb. There's no uh, there's no nobility in being superior to another
41:55
person. True nobility is being superior to yourself, your former self. I
42:00
agree with that. Yeah, I'm digging this. I can. I had
42:05
I've had ghost pepper and I had a ghost pepper on accident and that's when
42:08
I realized I could handle the ghost pepper. But with Stille was a jolt.
42:13
I was on an Emirates flight and for the first time, I go,
42:15
I'll take the Indian meal. Normally I'll just get like the beef or
42:20
the chicken. I thought I heard at some point that you couldn't have ghost
42:22
peppers on flights. Like it wasn't an actual, true, honest to god
42:27
ghost pepper or was it a dish that had like little bits essences of it?
42:30
No, it was, so I got the rice and lentils. I
42:35
don't know what I was thinking. I normally just get like whatever chicken or
42:37
beef dish they have. And I was like, you know what, I'll
42:42
do the vegetarian Indian and they're like, okay, it's doll and rice,
42:45
lentils and rice and the container. I opened it up and there's a white
42:50
pepper on top. And I eat traditionally like with my lentils and rice.
42:57
I have a Serrano pepper that I just put a little salt on and every
43:00
I'll take a bite of that and that's how I eat that with some onion
43:05
or whatever. And it's got the onion, it's got the white little pepper.
43:07
It's about that. It's about that big okay. And I was like,
43:09
oh, never seen that before? Uh in one spoon, took the
43:15
whole pepper with some lentils and rice and then ate it. And here you
43:21
are living to tell the tale. Yes. And I had never known outside
43:27
of football in Mesquite in the summer for the top of my head to start
43:31
sweating before any like I didn't like it hit like and I was like,
43:37
oh, that can't be served on this flight, Like I don't know who
43:40
this is for, and I don't know. This is when I know Indian
43:44
people didn't make this dish or they really hate everybody in the in the UAE,
43:52
because it was I took a bite and then it hit instantly, and
43:59
I was like, oh, I don't thing. I was supposed to eat
44:00
the whole thing at once, and then from here it's just hard, literally
44:07
pouring sweat. So you were like, you were like a human fountain for
44:10
for solid for a solid two to three minutes. I was like, and
44:15
then and then it was and it was fine, But for two to three
44:17
minutes, I was questioning ever on any other flight in the history of flights
44:22
getting the Indian vegetarian meule ever again. So I would be I would be
44:28
very curious to see you try either the Carolina Reaper or this brand new pepper
44:34
that this crazy man invented that is now three times hotter than the Carolina Reaper
44:39
the pepper X. This guy is not one of those guys who's going to
44:45
create something and not tried himself. He tries it himself, so he's his
44:49
own I don't know, he's his own guinea pig. He says that it
44:53
is immediate brutal heat the pepper X. He said, I was feeling the
44:59
heat for three and a half hours, then the cramps came. He also
45:02
said, those cramps are horrible. I was laid out flat on a marble
45:07
wall for approximately an hour in the rain, groaning in pain. So far,
45:13
he is only one of five people to eat an entire pepper X.
45:17
Now, heat and peppers is measured in the Scoville heat units. Zero is
45:22
bland. A regular Halapano registers about five thousand units. A Habanero, which
45:30
was the record holder twenty five years ago, typically tops one hundred thousand.
45:37
The Guinness Book of World Records list the Carolina Reaper at one point six four
45:40
million units. The pepper X is an average of two point six nine million
45:46
Scoville units. By comparison, pepper spray used by police is around one point
45:52
six million. Bear Spray advertises at two point two million units. That means
46:00
this brand new pepper X is hotter than bear spray. Uh, and we
46:07
need to get shirts made or coined that phrase immediately, because uh hotter than
46:14
bear spray. And I now hear our listeners saying that about women. I
46:17
can just hear I think we need to be Trey's tender headliner fron Home hotter
46:28
than Bear Spray. I think we now need to get show shirts made that
46:34
simply say I'm hotter than Bear Spray. And then another one is this is
46:39
pepper X, hold my beer. I think these would sell. Yeah.
46:50
I don't know what I'll he'll do with the the pepper X, except for
46:54
you make your shirt out of it. You sell some shirts. You don't
46:57
need the pepper You just sell on the brand you say I am I am,
47:00
I am hotter than Bear Spray, I smell better than cat spray.
47:07
If you put that headline harder than Bear Spray on a grinder ad though,
47:29
that's the congratulatory slow clap Tray, not the sarcastic one that normally gets well
47:37
done. That's the clap that's normally reserved for the unexpected hero of a high
47:44
school film. Thanks for hanging out with us today in the treehouse. My
47:51
note was worth it for me. And if you're on grinder Man, it's
47:54
going to be really never
