- Bryan: Ready to do this one? I need my hat for this one. Jason: Let's do it. Throw that hat on. Down now you're damn bald with a beard white and a tinfull hat. Bryan: what was it was the tin man? It was actually the tin man. Jason: The tin man, yeah. You don't have a heart. Bryan: Ten men didn't have a heart? No, that's what it is. I Jason: No, he didn't have a heart. I guess I'm the scarecrow, I don't have a brain. Bryan: ain't got a heart. Welcome back to the Sense and Senseless Podcast. I am Brian. Jason: Nah I'm Jerry Sue. Bryan: DSJ's on. This is your first time joining us. Welcome to the family. We're just two guys discussing shit in a way that everyone can hopefully understand. So tonight I got my tinfall hat on, because it's a tinfall hat kind of night. so what we're gonna talk about, we're gonna start with a comment from our one of our Iran charts that actually made more sense than most of the usual talking points. The comment was If it was gonna happen anyway, why not now? Then I'ma take that exact logic and apply it to the left and white the left the left and white. The left and right fight in this country. Huh. Jason: Sorry, we were talk before the show started, we were talking about the bald and beard and white racist Bryan: Yeah. Jason: over here in his dim full hat. That was from a comment too, sorry. Bryan: Yep. Most people we talk to already think that this doesn't end well. So why keep teetering on what's gonna happen? Let's rip the band-aid off, let one side run it down, and let's see what actually happens. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: Then we're gonna get into why polls say people don't want or expect a civil war. Yet social media and the news make it sound like we're already there. Is this two party system the easiest way to control people? There's also a comment this week claiming that Israel has infiltrated our government. And it takes our money and it took me in an unexpected direction. I don't know if you've seen all the controversy with Jelly Roll, but we're gonna talk about Jelly Roll hosting Jimmy Kimmel. We'll discuss Jason: jelly. Bryan: the smoker cigarette ritual. You'll relate to this one. And we'll end with a qu dark question about veterinarians. This is something I talked to you about a few weeks ago. We're gonna bring it up tonight. Like, share, follow, subscribe. We appreciate every one of you. Jason, you got anything? Jason: No, roll it, jelly. Bryan: Right. All right, so this week we had a short video of about the war with Iran and it was basically no new wars. In the comments we were getting some basic reasons on why we're fighting this war. Of course we were the idiots, that's just poor for the course for us now is just being idiots. But everyone was like, Why should we attack Iran? Because Iran killed all these people. Or they had a nuclear weapon. Same shit you always hear. It's 1979. You know what happened in 1979? Just all the same shit over and over and over. And then this one guy commented: If this war was gonna happen anyway, why not now? Or something like that, you know. And I was I was speechless for a second because I I have to admit, out of all explanations I've heard. Yeah, this one to me made the most sense. Let me explain why. Bear with me a little bit because I'm going somewhere with this. If you believe that this war was going to happen regardless, if you're getting all this intel and you know that they can destroy you no matter what, right? It's gonna happen Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: if you don't stop them. The they them are telling you, you just soon do it now, right? Because it's it's gonna happen. If this is what they have, then this makes sense. Yeah, it makes a lot of sense. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: Having said that, I don't believe that's what they have. But that's the reason that made the most logical sense out of everything I heard. You know, does that make sense to you? If it was gonna happen, why not now? Jason: Yeah. Bryan: So if they believe they had all this intel. And I replied to the guy that made the comment that that that was the best reason I've heard, or something like that. So last week I brought up briefly about letting one party or the other just win and just let blow it the fuck up. You know? Why not? Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: Why should the left and ro left and the right keep fighting, creating a slow death of all of us? You know, let's let's just rip the band-aid off and just let this bitch burn down. That's what we're talking about. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: Most people I talk to don't think this shit in this country ends well anyway. Same with you. I mean, do you talk to people that think that we had a slow ball and this shit's gonna end bad one day? Jason: Yeah, everybody or a lot of people I talk to think it's gonna come to a head eventually. Bryan: Yeah, and eventually this is gonna come down to some like type of civil war or something. Everyone says it. They all say it as a joke, but everyone says it. You know, they talk a joke about the fucking Civil War. But they say it because they know deep down they believe that this is gonna probably happen. Yeah. We don't wanna come out and discuss this, but we a lot of people believe that's gonna happen. When does it happen? Fuck, I don't know. You don't know. No one knows. But as long as you keep fighting with each other, you're just teetering right there in that sweet spot of just wishing a motherfucker would. Am I right? Jason: Yeah, like I told you about me taking that shot. I don't get Bryan: Yeah. Jason: confrontational, but I'll look at you like I wish you would. Say something. Bryan: Or would you would? Now stay with me now. All right. Now hear me out. All Jason: I'm staying wait, I'm riding you. Bryan: right. So using the same logic that if it was gonna happen anyway, why not now? Okay. If you're on the right, just let the left win. Again, most people I know believe this isn't gonna end well anyway, right? So why pull along the fucking agony? Why not just let one side win? And just fucking go all out and just be done with it. You know what I'm getting at? Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: If you believe that it's going to end up in a civil war one day, it's that bad in this country that there's no other way. It's just gonna fucking happen. If you Jason: Right. Right. Bryan: believe that, and they say most people do, if you if you believe that, we just don't know when. This side's crazy, that side's crazy, this side's crazy. If you just take a step back, say, look. We ain't fighting y'all no more. You know? Tell whatever party, you know, do you, boo boo. Do whatever whatever you want to do. Do whatever the fuck you want. If it gets as bad as they said it's gonna get, then when we had enough of this shit, we'll rise up and fight. They Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: already thought it was gonna happen anyway, so why not now? Just like the guy said, why not now, right? Let's do that and let everything play out as it may. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: Might start a civil war. Hell we might become a communist country. You know, we don't know. But what if nothing changes? What if you let the left win? They get everything they want and nothing changes. Think about it. I know this shit's out there, but think about it. If we just let the left take over and nothing changes, that means that there was never two sides this whole time. They just made you believe that you had your own party, that you were part of their party. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: You finally see that you're getting fucked either way. And then maybe everybody comes together. It's a fucking double edged sword, but either way, right? It's logical. What do you think about that? Jason: I already think it's that way. So Bryan: No, but I mean if you just if you just allow we fight all the time because one side's worse than the other. And if you they say every election is the biggest election, you know, if we if we let them win it's over for us. It's over as a country. So let take over. I mean Jason: Well, they've won. Bryan: Who's that? Jason: They won like both sides have won. You had Trump for four years, Bryan: Yes, and we always stay the same. Jason: you had Biden for four, you had Trump again now. That I meant was there some Bryan: Nothing changes. Jason: no. Bryan: So if you just take a step back and just let one party just say, hey, look, go ahead and take care of it. And you just quit bucking the system. You quit fighting. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: Then what? They have nothing to you you take all the wind out of their sails. You see what I'm getting at? They need Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: people to fight each other. They need this confrontation. I'm not going to say it was going to end well if you did this. But if you already believe it's not gonna end well anyway, what are you losing? Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: All you're doing is ripping the band-aid off. Right now we're in a slow bleed. You know, we're we're fighting each other just enough to keep it from whatever we think's gonna happen. One party gets control for a little while, the other party gets control for a little while. But nothing really changes ever. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: We just pay more. We just give up more, more of our rights, more of our money. We get more laws put on the books to regulate us. Nothing gets better for us. You think it does because your party's winning. Is it is your party really winning? And what do you Jason: Well they tell you that. Bryan: Yeah, what's the prize anyway? What what is the prize you're getting? Yeah. Jason: I haven't gotten any any cool shit in the mail from or Bryan: Fucking I don't know then. You might. Jason: Might get a five thousand dollar check, dude, if we vote. Bryan: You might get if ye if the G O P wins, you'll get that. You'll get five thousand. You'll get five thousand. You get five thousand. Jason: We all get five dollars. Bryan: Down. Okay, so this is a tinfall hat episode, if you haven't noticed yet. For those of y'all that aren't aware, when the tinfall hat is on, we are talking about what some or most may consider off the wall thinking, as you might have seen already. Earlier I mentioned that most of the people I know believe that we're heading towards a civil war one day, and I firmly believe that if shit doesn't change, we're gonna end up there someday. I just do. I know that's not a bold prediction. I get it. But I want to stress this because while most of us believe this is going to happen, polls don't show that. According to Gronk, most polls show that most people don't want a civil war. No do they think that the U.S. is heading to a civil war. And I have to admit, I don't want a civil war, so I agree with that. That's the last thing I want is a fucking Civil War. However, what you hear on social media and in the news is that we all hate each other. But can't agree on anything. And based off what I see in our comments, I don't think we all hate each other, but there's a lot of hate out there. lot of hate out Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: there. It's unbelievable the amount of hate they got out there. And they got some ang Jason: There's some people with some anger issues, I'll tell you that. Bryan: they got some angry people. It's it's unbelievable how angry people get over the just dumb shit. Jason: I know. Bryan: You would think that y you you talk shit about their mama or something. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: I think you could probably talk more shit about somebody's mama right now than you can about their political party. That is sad. You know, you could probably dog their mama all day long and they probably won't say Jason: It ain't just Bryan: nothing. Jason: political. Can I throw this in here? I was watching tick well, I asked if I can, then I just went with it, right? Bryan: Yeah. Jason: But anyways, hold your thought for a sec. It's not Bryan: No, I'm good. Jason: political, it's food. I watched a cat on TikTok take some venison and put a slit in it and pack it with cream cheese and wrap bacon around it and cook it on a grill. And and people were dogging him for how he did it. Shit looked good as hell. Bryan: You mean dogging them like they saying that he wasted meat or something? Jason: Like like y'all, you just ruined that venison. You did blah blah. And I I I should have. I should have got on there and said, and everybody critiques how somebody, man, if you would have done it like this, it would have been a lot better. Do you ever think about doing this? Did you ever think about can you not just say, dude, that looks good as hell? Man, I'd eat that. Can you not just say, good job, dude? No, we gotta Bryan: 'Cause Jason: criticize everybody. We cannot agree that. Bryan: Well, it's easier to criticize somebody than to do something yourself. Jason: Just like when I make a steak, I made some cowboy butter. Don't know what it is, look it up. I mean, you can get a recipe. I told Chad GPT in Walmart, give me a recipe for cowboy butter. I'm I might I'm making shrimp and steak. And I'm sick and tired of people saying, if you cook a steak good, you don't have to put nothing on it. Well, you know what? I like to have something on it every once in a while. I can cook a damn good steak. I'll put mine up against anybody's. And I can eat it just plain. But sometimes I like a little condiment on it. You know what I'm saying? Just like I ain't gonna lie, I like a woman with some lingerie on. I don't have to have it, but it looks good when it is. I d I I don't understand why people g just can't keep their fine fucking see now you got me throwing the U bomb out. They can't keep their damn Bryan: I got you doing shit. Jason: bullshit to themselves. I'm in dang. Can you just say, man, that's that's awesome. That looks good. I'd eat that. And if you wouldn't, swipe. Just keep swiping. You don't have to say shit. As grandma Bryan: Yeah, I Jason: said, if you can't say nothing nice, don't say nothing at all. What happened to that logic? Bryan: I think that's the only people that speak now. Well, I can't say speak, that's the only people that comment. Yeah. Jason: It's internet courage, dude. Because anybody can talk shit on the internet. Like I said, I think we talked the last time. People need to start getting their their mouth popped for running their mouth. If people would would get popped in the mouth every time they ran their mouth, they wouldn't run their mouth like they did. And the problem is, like Bryan: Maybe not as much. Jason: I click on the people running their mouth and they're old people. Like like our age or older. It's like, really? Bryan: That'll make sense. Jason: I d I don't Bryan: Yeah, I don't Jason: I don't underst sorry. I here I was trying to have a lighting night tonight and I knew you'd bring something up that pissed me off. Bryan: I didn't even say nothing. You Jason: I know. It just it star PTSD, sorry, it just it just hit a nerve. I mean do you not see it too? Do you not go in people's comments? I go to get the recipe and I Bryan: No, I never went I Jason: and people dogging people. Bryan: I still don't go in comments unless there's comments on us. So I don't really understand all the comment things. I'm starting to understand it a little more. I honestly I I cannot bel I can't believe the amount of hate they have out there. It it's just mind boggling to me. Because when I walk when I go to town, I don't see all this hate. Right? But yet when you're online, you see all this hate. So do we really have this hate and people just bottle it up and they just don't the amount of hate I see online, honestly, when you go to town, I would think that there would just be fires everywhere, you know, just burning shit down, people fighting everywhere. And you don't see that. But yet when you're online, it is like the wild, wild west. Jason: I know. I mean how many times have you been called a racist out to your face out in town for being bald, white, and with a beard? You had a Bryan: fuck. never. Never. I mean Jason: black lady tell you that that look is good for you. Bryan: Yes. And I have no problem talking with any race. But no, yeah, I get called a racist a lot just by the way that that's what really is weird. I get called a bigot and a racist for the way I look. And it's like they don't Jason: Online. Bryan: yeah, and they don't understand do you really realize what you just said? I mean, I you're saying that I'm a a racist, but you're you're conduct condemning me for the way I look. Jason: That's racism. Bryan: Yeah, they don't make okay. Jason: And then some cat said that you need to shave your beard and glue glue it on your hand. Why w w where would that thought even come into your mind to put that on somebody's comment? Dude, you need to shave your beard and put that on your head. Bryan: Yeah, I'm sorry. God didn't allow me to grow hair. I mean, that's just this is what I have. You know, I mean, that's that's what I got. Jason: Can we not come up with something more intelligent? Yeah, can we I was like, gosh dang, that dude went to MIT or something, I think. Bryan: That's how people are. But you know how social media and the news they able to to push this hate is because they cover shit that we don't agree on. Jason: I know. Bryan: They don't focus on the tough topics that we agree on, they just focus on the tough topics that get people fucking fired up. You know, not Jason: I truly believe what I've heard. It does peace doesn't sell. Bryan: No, no. It doesn't sell in topics and shit like this. If it wouldn't be for media and all, it it would sell. I mean, if you in public and you had to be around people, peace sells. It does. Because you do Jason: Yes, it does. Bryan: not want to go to an area that is just crime ridden. You don't want to go to an area that's lit on fire. You want to go to an area that's peaceful when you're out in public. So that sells. But no, when you're talking about media and social media, no. You peace does not sell. And these tough topics, they need to be discussed. I'm not going to say they don't. But they're making they create unnecessary animosity in discussing this shit. Yeah, they they they constantly amplifying the issues that we just can't agree on. And this shit just highlights our differences. It exploits your support for one party and turns it into rage against the other party. Why? Because you always told the other party is what's causing all your issues in your life. You know, there's so many things that Republicans and Democrats both enjoy and support. They are. And Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: is this why we have a two party system though? To just keep us Jason: It lines up, doesn't it? Bryan: Is the two party system the ultimate control? Jason: It's a fifty fifty fight, man. Bryan: Yeah, it's it's easier to control two teams than many teams, huh? And it's damn Jason: If you had more parties it'd be harder to control all that, wouldn't it? Bryan: it's a lot easier to control two parties than a fuck ton of individuals. Jason: Well, look at it. Football. It's two teams going at it. Boxing, it's two dudes going at it. UFC or women. UFC, same thing. Wrestling every once in a while have a battle royale, right? Where there's like twenty guys in the ring, but that's chaos. You only see that once. But for the most part, you got your your good guy and your heel. And they're all buddies back behind the stage. They all take up for one another. They're it's a family. But it's a script and they they take it on. They're athletic as hell. Them dudes are very athletic and they're good at what they do. But it's a storyline, just like a s a soap opera. Everything around us, man, is is like engraved in our minds that you gotta pick a side. You're either A or B, is it not? Everything we deal with makes us pick a side. Bryan: Yeah, everything they try to make it they try to make it binary. And you have to agree with everything on that side. Jason: Yes. Bryan: Everything. You cannot disagree with one thing. It has to be everything on all or nothing. It's Jason: Y you know, you got Christians that say that you can't be a Democrat and call yourself a Christian. Bryan: You know, I'm I'm glad you Jason: Because of abortion and you know, some of their big agenda that they have doesn't support the Christian mentality. But then I know union guys that are good Christians in my mind, I look up to them, they're union, right? And they're Democrats, they think Republicans are out to get the unions and get rid of them. So they vote democratically, not because of abortions. But there's stuff I like if I vote Republican, there's stuff Republicans do that probably don't line up with the Bible either. It's you can't fully be on board with one way or the other. You just can't. Bryan: Nope. But Republicans are are biblical now. And that's one thing I was just gonna tell you. I'm getting tired of seeing how biblical all of our politicians are, you know, the especially the Republican side. The way they they hang in it's not because I I don't want them to be biblical, not because I don't want them to love God and be peaceful. It's they're using it. Jason: To get at you. Yes. Bryan: As a prop. Yeah. And everything that they talk about has to be God now. Everything in first of all, I I politics and religion I still believe that this should be a a separation. Now, can you use religion for your moral values to help you in politics? Yes. I agree with that. Can your religious values help you? gain supporters, yes. And can that help you, you know, in what you making decisions on? Yes. Having said that, I don't think that everything needs to come back to well, well, you know, God had me do this and or, you know, and the Lord, you know, okay, look, I get it. there's some people that are gonna be true to the Lord, and that's just the way they are. I'm not arguing that. There's a lot of people that are just using it to prop themselves up. You know, I'm getting that and they're they're false prophets, let's just put it that way. And I don't like seeing that shit. And you can see right through it. You know, because it'll what's the worst ones is you'll see say a this big old speech and then right at the end they gotta throw some kind of fancy something in or they'll they'll quote something from the Bible that probably ain't even right. Yeah, and you know, and this Jason: Yeah, some verse or yeah. Yeah, they'll take it out of context. Bryan: Yeah, it's like d d that didn't even have Jason: When they roll in the back and they're snorting coke off some whore's ass. Bryan: Yeah, exactly. It had nothing to do with what you just said. Nothing. But yet you're pandering to, you know, the religious people. You know, I I don't like that. And I'm not a very religious person. I don't like that. You know, that me personally. You other people might like it. I don't. So this is where I was going with that. Th there was this other comment that got me thinking, and it was on the lines of in a free country, why would you have to register your loyalty to a party when you register to vote? I was like, okay, that that makes sense. If we are a free country, when you're ready to vote, why do you have to pick a side? You know, you can pick independent, which I have, but why do you have to pick Republican or Democrat? And you shouldn't have to. So I thought about this and decided to. Jason: You shouldn't have to. But you have to register as something. Bryan: Well, no, I look into that. And that's not exactly correct. Cause I trust me, I I thought the same thing as you're saying. And And what I found is you don't have to join a party to just register to vote in the United States. It says the US does not require you to pick a political party or even independent just to register to vote in general elections. It says that this is a common misconception. Registration is mainly so state can confirm you're a citizen old enough and live where you're voting. You do need to be party affiliated to vote in closed primaries. In a general election, president, Congress, Governor, you can vote for anyone. Party label doesn't lock you in. People think you have to pick a party because a lot of states ask for it on a form and because primaries often require it. Jason: Yes. Yeah, so like it's funny, all of our this is crazy. And it's probably because of what Democrats were back in the day. Can can we say that? A lot of them were racist back in the day. I meant the KKK, all that stuff. Bryan: yeah. Yeah. Wow. Jason: I look at Biden. Biden was big. Kamala called him out. So if you want to fact check, Biden was on the record supporting segregation. He did not want blacks and whites going to school together. Now you can sit there and well, you're taking that out of context. He knew it'd be a big uproar and it wasn't time yet, blah, blah, blah. No, Kamala wanted him to apologize for doing that and admit he did. But anyways, are my county, like if you want to vote for judge executive and it they they're all Democrats. Like you damn near gotta you gotta register a Democrat in order to vote for our seats. Yes. Bryan: fly for primaries and shit. So y'all don't have any Republicans run? Jason: The every once in a while they'll have somebody that does, but they never get voted here. And this county votes for the Republic I've I've not seen this county vote for like the the Democrat president or the Democrat Congress or Senate. They always vote Republican for that, but in in their their little little town elections like the county and this the towns, they're all Democrats, which is weird. And I was told that, like, hey, if you wanna If you wanna be able to vote for local people here, you gotta you gotta register as Democrat. Cause if I go in there during that vote and I and I give my license, they'll tell me, you're registered Republican. You can't you can't vote. Bryan: Yeah, that's why I can't well, up to this year I could not vote in primaries. They just opened up primaries to independents this year in the state of Louisiana and you can pick whatever side you want to vote for, which I liked, you know? Jason: That's yeah. And it should be like that regardless. Bryan: I but what I found is it says the the two party system sticks around mostly because of the rules, not because everyone loves Democrats and Republicans. Most races are winner takes all, right? So if you have Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: a third party, it can feel like you're wasting your vote. 'Cause let's face it, it's hard for a third party to win right now. It just is. You know, there's no money backing a third party. And the biggest reason is the two big parties write the ballot access laws, they control most of the debates, and they get the most media time and have the most money. So it's hard to get a third party started. Jason: Who was it? Ross Perot was the last one that I remember that ran as an independent that even had a chance. It's cause he had all that money. Bryan: And he had a lot of good ideas. Looking back at him, he had a lot of good ideas. Jason: think he did. Yeah, I remember him what he was saying and all that and but he he didn't stand a chance. Huh? Bryan: I got some videos of him that I want to play one week and dissect him. But he he did some he has some good speeches. He said a lot of good things that could have changed a lot of things for the better. But I'm saying it could have. I don't know how much the president can do. You know what I'm saying? I really don't. But Jason: Yeah, I we've talked about that. I mean, we're the only we're one of the few countries that doesn't have a dictator like Russia and China and all that stuff. You're not gonna put Putin or see what what's China's Bryan: Xi Jinping? Jason: yeah, Pink. You're not gonna put them in front of our whole Congress and Senate in a room full of them. That's just overwhelming. So you have to have a representative for our country, which is the president. Now the president has veto power. They do have some power, but You still got Congress and Senate that can shut shit down. You know what I'm saying? Bryan: Well, I think Congress and Senate are able to control things just because those people just stay in office longer. So they able to Jason: Yes. Bryan: get their agendas across the way they want. It's hard for a president to come in in four or eight years and actually move the needle and keep it moved because then they're gonna leave and then somebody else is just gonna come in and undo exactly what they've done. Jason: And even if the next president is in the same party, they might not do the same thing. I it's weird. I don't Bryan: Yeah, I d I don't know, man. I it's Jason: You know, I was just sitting there thinking, why is wrestling like WWE wrestling still popular? Back in the day, I mean it was because I ain't gonna lie, I think a lot of people because social media didn't exist and all thought it was real. I mean they actually thought that stuff was real. I thought it was as a kid growing up. Bryan: As a kid, but I think as you grow up you understand it's not. Jason: I'm telling ya, man, I was round a lot of adults that got mad about it and all that. If you went to the Coliseum like I did growing up, there was old ladies throwing shit at the ring and all that. Bryan: Wow. Jason: They thought that crap was real. I mean they were that invested in it. Bryan: I don't know. Jason: But now that everybody pretty I mean, even the people that are really into it, you're like, dude, you I know, but I still love it, man. I still love it. It'd almost be like if it ever came out, which there's a rumor, but if it ever was ever proved that the NFL was scripted. Bryan: Yeah. Jason: I I'd have to say I'd stop watching it, dude. I'm not gonna watch something that's I mean, that's that's what I like about our podcast. This ain't you come up with this stuff and you got an agenda we talk about, but it's not scripted. This is all raw. We didn't plan how this conversation was gonna go. That's what I like about life is raw. Bryan: Brawl. Like a raw dog. Jason: Brawl, yeah. Dog. But I don't I'm not gonna sit there and watch something that I know because there's probably money behind that, right? If it's scripted. Bryan: there's a lot of b money behind all that shit. Jason: Like betting lines and well, there was some running back from Arizona Cardinals, I think. I can't remember what his name was, but you know, he even said they told him, You're gonna get hurt. And you're gonna be numb for the year. Bryan: Do what now? Jason: Yeah, I swear to God, sis dude came out and said that. I'm gonna have to research that and bring that up. Yeah, some dude tried to run Bryan: He said that he's gonna be heard foot. Jason: his mouth about it. Some ex NFL player tried to say that he was handed a sheet of paper that told him exactly how that year was gonna play out with him. Bryan: Wow, I didn't hear that. Die Jason: It'd be weird as hell if that is true. I'm just saying. This dude could be had too many concussions or Bryan: Why can with all these new betting programs and all this other shit, I can see how it's gonna be more and more I I gonna say cheating, but I I think it might be some games thrown. you know, there's just so much betting involved now. There's so much money in there was already a lot of money in sports, but now the betting with what what do they call those like DraftKings and stuff like that. You could yeah, you Jason: fan duel and yeah. Bryan: can just bet on anything. He's gonna throw the ball five foot and fumble. You can bet on Jason: Yeah. Bryan: that. You know, he Jason: Yeah. Bryan: He takes two steps and twists his ankle. You can just dumb shit. Jason: You're not even betting on on on scores anymore or who's gonna win or the over under. You're betting on dude getting three touchdowns or do, you know, having less than five catches this game. You're betting on shit like that. I mean, that's weird. Bryan: And and instead of palming your hand just constantly just betting, betting, betting. Jason: Yeah. And I've got buddies that do that stuff and it's like Bryan: it it I think it Jason: I'm nervous about going back to the casino. I had a great time. We won good money last time on the slots, but my wife was raking it. But it might not happen again and we gotta set a budget. But these guys, man, I'm already like five thousand dollars behind this year. Bryan: Wow. Jason: And I'm like, I don't have that kind of money. But they'll get a good win and think that they did good, but they forget the money they were behind, Brian. It's like Bryan: Well yeah, that's the same way at the casinos, they they'll tell you everything they won, but they won't tell you what they lost. well. I said there was another comment this week that got me thinking this one was from Brian Blake. And it was from one of our Where are the weapons shorts? His comment was, and I quote, Our government was infiltrated by Israel, and they take all our taxes, all our money. We're we work to supply them. Look it up, stupid. And my first response was Damn, do I thank him or should I be mad because he called me stupid? So I replied, thanks, I guess. And for a minute, I was at a loss with this comment. Not because he called me stupid, but because he talks about this shit with Israel like it's like it's a proven thing, you know? And yes, I I do believe that Israel has some play in our government. I can't prove it, but I believe it. But this dude, I mean, he's fucking adamant about what he states. Sat thinking about it for a minute, my complete assessment of the comment changed. I went from thinking this guy is crazy to thinking it wasn't long ago I wasn't questioning the motives of the government. You know, I was consumed with sports and just other man shit, as most younger men are. But now I feel my mind is more open than it's been in a long time. There's some things I stand behind today that I I would have received differently just ten years ago. I remember Jen's nephew, Sean, would come over on the weekends and just talk football, but every now and then we would talk about conspiracies with the government. Now I'd listen to him. But I'm not gonna lie, I was skeptical. Not once did I ever call him crazy or discredit what he was telling me, but I had my reservations. Now I wish I had asked more questions. I feel that he was ahead of me on his awakening to the system. So that led me to think. What if Brian Blake that made this comment actually knows something about the Israel and the US relationship that I just haven't found yet? What if he's ahead of me on his awakening and is tired of hearing people like me talk about shit that he has been preaching for years and no one will listen to him now? I know that can be out there, but but is it? You know, think about it. It wasn't long ago you wasn't thinking this deep into politics, right? Jason: No, I wasn't. Like I said, I w I didn't know how this podcast was gonna go. I thought we were just gonna like BS about what happened during the week and at work and with the family and I mean, we don't have young kids in the house anymore. All our kids are grown up and but you've got me more in in tune with this stuff and you know what I'm saying? Bryan: so I mean it's quite possible that this guy might he might I don't think he does, but he might know something. So I guess my whole point is kinda hard to sit here and and and just think that all these people don't know what they're saying. Maybe they are further along in their awakening than I am, you know? Or maybe they just fucking quacks. I don't know. But I I do know that there are a lot of people out there that have a lot deeper thoughts than I have about, you know, what's going on behind this government. I mean, they got people that I don't know if they actually know what they're talking about, but they're very adamant about what they're talking about whenever they're talking about the they them to the world. You seen any of those comments I'm talking about? Jason: Yeah. I mean I read a lot of them. Bryan: And a lot of are pretty adamant about this government being infiltrated by, you know, the Jason: Israel. Bryan: yeah. Jason: Which we think that there's somebody above that too, like the the elite families. Bryan: Yeah, I I think there's some yeah, I think there's some truth in that. I but I can't prove that. I don't that's my whole point. Jason: Like that one dude talking about all that defense money being used to make this damn underground bunker city or whatever for the elites and all that. I mean, there could be a lot of validity to that. We don't Bryan: There could be. Jason: know and we'll never know. And then the one dude saying, Well, d there's no way you're getting accurate information 'cause the United States wouldn't allow we're not supposed to know what the military's money's going towards because the enemy would know that and they could Bryan: What? I didn't I didn't see that one. Jason: yeah. He was saying that w that we're a bunch of stupids to think that the government is gonna be transparent about what goes on with their defense money because if they're showing their hand, the enemy's got a upper hand on that. I kinda understand what he's saying about that, but at the same time, I mean, dude, okay. How do you use that kind of money and then w but they're telling us they're We're running out of missiles. Bryan: Exactly. That's my whole point. Jason: If they're if if nothing's said and we keep lobbing shit at Iran and nobody's saying we're getting low, then we're not gonna question it. I guess we got a big stockpile somewhere. I don't know where it's at and I don't think the government would say, Yeah, it's on Google Maps, just Google that shit, right? And I mean if that was the case, Russia and China or whoever tried to attack us would know where all our munition piles are. But if we're sitting there, man, it takes what'd they say, how many years to make some of that stuff? Bryan: Like like two years, a year, two years. Jason: And that we're running low. They're the one that said it. We Bryan: Yeah, well we don't have stockpiles all over the world. Jason: didn't say it, they said it. Bryan: Exactly. You can sit here and you can you can second guess a lot of shit, you know. Having said that, what especially in the one that you're talking about, I specifically said that was all estimates based off of procurement of twenty twenty five and the amount of money we spent since two thousand nine. If you cannot understand how that was all drawn out. I mean that that's on you. You know, I I that's that's how the conversation went. So no, I don't have any inside scoop. But I use what information was available to make an educated guess on what the fuck they've done. Estimations. That's that brings up question where the fuck is our money? And people get lost in you don't know where's our money? Why are you not mad about the money? Why are you not mad about the money? Jason: okay, so anybody and I hope this ma one gets posted and a lot of people read it too. You know, maybe we can short or do a short on this one, is okay, you got I mean, I always like narrow it down. I gotta dumb it down. The government's huge. Let's take this into my house. Me and my wife both share a a bank account. I know some people don't. I don't I I do you, I guess. I don't understand that. How you're married and have two separate accounts. That's weird in my eyes. But if that's what you huh? Bryan: No, I have I have two separate accounts now. That's the only way I'll work it, but go on. Jason: You do that. Bryan: Yes, because no one's gonna ever have control of my money ever again. Jason: okay. Yeah, well you got burnt once. I'm I'm still on my first. No no pun intended, you know that, but Bryan: Yeah. Jason: I'm just saying I haven't been burnt, so therefore but I'm not gonna say that somebody hasn't gone hog wild on our pay or our account and was doing stuff I didn't know about, but I had to find out, right? Because why we broke? I know what I'm bringing in, why the hell we broke? Bryan: Exactly. Yep. Jason: I could have just kept going and just like, well. well. Have you seen the Dow? Bryan: Yeah. Jason: I'm I could have just kept making excuses, but finally I had to go to the source, the only other person with the account, and say, what the hell's going on? I know what I bring home. Why why are we where we at? Well, you know what I'm saying? You gotta get we have the right to know. Bryan: What's bad? is especially with that one, people think I'm attacking like Trump. And they d they so they they get mad about it. And what they're not realizing that I said even in that clip, I went back to two thousand nine. All right. So Trump wasn't the only president from two thousand nine to twenty twenty six. Jason: We're all doing it. Bryan: So I I mean I don't I I just can't understand the mentality of some people. right, let's talk about jelly roll. You know all the jelly roll controversy? I didn't either. I didn't either. Jason: Yeah, I yeah, I I I heard I didn't look exactly what happened, but I heard he filled in for Kimball a couple of nights or was it a whole week? Bryan: Well he's failed in for him for a whole week, yeah. Jason: A whole week, okay. And he said some stuff and lost a lot of lot of followers and stuff like that, so Bryan: Yeah, there was some controversy over his jokes that he made about Trump. And I d I didn't watch all five monologues. I went back this week and I watched Monday and I watched Friday. Well, actually I watched Friday first because I didn't know he was on there all week. And then I went back and watched Monday and I'm like, I'm not watching all this shit. But I'm gonna give you my assessment of Monday and Friday, and I'm assuming that Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday was kind of like Monday. And I'm gonna start with this video, cause this video of Trump waving the flag at the road race, honestly, I found this funny. I just did. So here's the first night of Jelly Road. So so the flag thing was the first thing he showed. And I find that funny. I do. Because he has like no rhythm. It is just weird the way he was ra waving that flag. I get that. I I can't hate Jelly Roll for saying that. Jason: No. Bryan: But I admit after that, I mean, he just he was going out of his way to make jokes about Trump. And then he started on Trump's weight and all that other shit. And I'm like, Really? Wait, that that's that's the jokes you're gonna make, you know. Jelly Roll is gonna make weight jokes. Out of all people, I mean he knows what it's like being fat. Just saying. So yes. Jason: They don't nickname a skinny dude Jelly Roll, you know what I'm saying? Bryan: Yeah, so I mean, yes, he did he did go I I have to admit, he did go out of his way to to make jokes about Trump. And a lot of it just they weren't it wasn't called for, should I say. I'm not saying that Trump's off limits, it's just you can tell he was stretching it to make a joke about him. It's it just didn't make sense in the realm of what he you know, the things he was talking about. And then last Friday when he was hosting That night he spent his whole monologue that trying to sell himself to the people of who he really is. You know, so this led me to believe that the week of hosting the show had hurt his popularity and he was just doing damage control. Because I if he felt like his pop his popularity and everything was still good and or still growing, I think his monologue would have been stayed basically attacking Trump. But since it shifted to who he is. It makes me believe that he was trying to do damage control to say, hey, look, I'm a good guy. You know, I I I I'm still the same person, you know. I'm I might not have the same pit political beliefs. He keeps, you know, saying all this shit. You wouldn't have to sell yourself if you did a great job all week long. You know what I'm getting at? So he had to Jason: Right. Yep. Bryan: really hurt his popularity and probably his career. La that week that he did J Jim McKimmel. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: I don't know. I I did see something earlier today about people Jason: It's kinda like the Democrats took a swing on that and they struck out, right? Bryan: Yeah, see what I was really wondering is the Democratic Party was always talking about getting their version of Joe Rogan. I mean, is that what they were trying to achieve with Jelly Roll? Jason: That'd be a weird one to go after. Bryan: It would be, but think about Jelly Roll and his influence he has over a lot of people. Jason: Yeah. Bryan: You know, he has a huge following. You know, I I love his music. I'm not gonna lie. I mean, it doesn't could he have done some things different? Yes, I don't know all the backstory on it. You know, I don't know all the details, so I'm not gonna say that, you know, he should be overlooked. I'm not gonna say that. I still like his music though. You know, I'm getting that I can like your music and not like your politics. Hell, I like Green Day and I hate fucking Green Day's politics. So Jason: Mm. Bryan: I mean, I I understand all that. Jason: Same thing with Metallica. I mean, I like Metallica, but Bryan: Young lady of politics. What are their politics? Jason: Well, Lars made it w clear but n he never he said if Trump won both times he was gonna leave the United States. It's like, okay, leave. Bryan: But he's still not Jason: I know I know just like all them other idiots that made that threat. Bryan: I know, I think Rosie O'Donnell left, didn't she? Jason: come on, dude. Ellen d de Gendris left too. But from what I heard, it was more scared about them fouls than it was 'cause of Trump. Bryan: Did she leave? Jason: Yeah. So what I bl let me check that too before somebody goes off on me Bryan: I tell you what though, what's sketchy as fuck is her what was it, Twitch or Stitch? That the the guy that danced or was with her on the show, the black guy that ended up Jason: Yeah. Bryan: committing suicide in like that hotel room. That you do you know that weird story? That Jason: I heard something on it. Bryan: yeah, that was a little weird. I don't know if maybe he knew a little something that he wasn't supposed to know or something. Jason: Hey, real quick, back to the football thing. The one I was referencing to, there's multiple people that have said it. Two of them never recanted what they said. Was Dwight Smith was a Buccaneer safety and part of that Super Bowl, what is that thirty seven champion? that was Bryan: Tampoco Bay. Jason: yeah, for Tampa Bay, saying that outcome ain't decided on the field. A lot of the Super Bowls are fixed 'cause of Vegas. And then Bubba Smith, Baltimore Colts defensive star in 1983, alleged that the Super Bowl three, the Jets famous sixteen to seven upstep of Baltimore had been fixed. he said things that happened during the game caused him to believe something was wrong. Other Colts players disputed his allegations. But Benny Cunningham was the one that I was referencing. He was originally with the Rams and the Then he went to the Bears and then the Bears was the last team he played for. And I remember after he didn't come back, he made a thing saying that the NFL is scripted and claimed players signed something preventing them from discussing it. And he got into saying that they were handed a script at training camp, basically explaining how their year was gonna go. All the way up to injuries to You know, falling off, not having as good a year as they did the year before and all this stuff. And then it tried Bryan: Not gonna say that it Jason: to say that he recanted what he said. That he he came out saying he was joking. I think somebody said something to him. You know what I'm saying? Because he wasn't joking when he first said it. I'm gonna tell you 'cause it came out as like a like an article like not Kidding around. He wasn't like putting out a tweet or Instagram or something like that with the laughing emojis. Cause there a couple other people did, like Junior Gollette did, Will Compton, Terrell Owens, all them kind of said it jokingly with little memes of laughing faces. Like I put my body on the line for a scripted game, laughing face emoji. Benny Cunningham was being serious about that shit. until he came back and said, My bad, I was just kidding. I was just kidding. Which were you? I mean, why'd you come out and say that and then you turn around and say, I was just joking about that. Bryan: I j I don't know. I'm not gonna say that is that's not some truth to that. That's a lot of choreograph if you if you No, but wrestling's Jason: Why not? Well, so is wrestling and it's popular as hell. Bryan: only a couple people. I mean, you talking about choreographing twenty two people on a field running full speed for an hour. That's pretty tough to do if it's fully scripted. Jason: Yeah, but how would they fix a game? Other than penalties and you know what I'm saying? Play calling play calling Bryan: Penalties and and the quarterback or fumble. Yeah. Jason: could be fixing the game too. Bryan: Right. But when you say inscripted, it's almost like it's saying that everyone's on the same page. I don't know if you get all Jason: I'm s I'm just saying like he carries the ball and he gets tackled, which during a game, any of that stuff's physical, right? You can get hurt at any time. I thought Erlacher was a guy and he broke his arm that one game and the Bears went to hell in a handbasket as soon as he got hurt. One dude out of twenty guys, twenty or how many are part of that team, right? That contribute to special teams and offense and defense. One dude goes down, the Bears just went to hell. Like how how is that? How does one guy, other than your quarterback, you know, you gotta have somebody that throws the ball, how does a middle linebacker cause your whole defense to just go to hell? Bryan: Well, the middle linebacker is the quarterback of your defense. Jason: He is, but he's not throwing the ball though. He's not call you know he Bryan: No, but he's putting everybody in position. He's Jason: is, but damn man, defensive coordinators can do that. I'm just saying, dude. Bryan: No no, the guy that's three whole reason why the middle linebacker has a mic in the I mean the the earpieces or whatever. Yeah. Jason: He can call audibles and stuff like that and recheck out that the defensive coordinator ain't seeing. I understand that a little bit, but still. I mean, they just fell off the face of the earth after he got hurt. What did what were we just talking about? Damn it. I don't know, I told you I was gonna look that up because I didn't wanna misquote, but I had to go back and Bryan: I was talking about jelly roll. And then you I don't Jason: Well Bryan: know what you started talking about after that. Jason: No, I told you I was gonna look something up, but then I already had that Benny Cunningham. I couldn't remember the running back that had made those. Ellen DeGeneres, Bryan: Ellen de Generis leaving the country. Jason: yeah, did she but I I know I butchered the hell out of her last name. Yeah, they're in Cotswolds or Cotswolds in England. And they moved there in late twenty twenty four. And she tried to say that Trump's victory was the major reason why she left. Bryan: Might have been, if she thought that he was gonna go after with the Epstein files or something. Jason: Well, and it says more recently though, it appears they're not completely done with the United States. In twenty twenty six they reportedly bought another home in California and plan to divide their time between California and England. Bryan: Ago. Jason: It's like I don't know. And same thing with Rosie O'Donnell and Or not Ro or what's her name? is it Rosie O'Donnell? Yeah. Yeah. Bryan: I think it's Rose O'Donnell, yeah, the one that left. I think she came back though. Jason: I was thinking Roseanne Barr. it's Rosie O'Donnell, dude. I can't stand Bryan: She wasn't like the way she w she was treated. I think when she went to Ireland or something, then she didn't like the way she was being treated or something. I don't know. Jason: Yeah. But and and Bryan: I took Jason: I mean how sad is that, dude, to leave the United States because somebody's president? Bryan: I don't know. I don't know what they believe. Do they if they believe? All right, let me let me put it this way. The people that that yell at us online because they didn't like what we said about Trump. Okay. If I believe that those people are so rabid that they're if once Trump got in office, they're going to destroy everything that we have. If I believe that in my mind and I have the way to get away from it, I can see how somebody would leave. I don't think that's rational, but I can see how somebody would do that. Does that make sense? Jason: Yeah, I can, but I think people in their in their social stash statue or whatever has more intel Bryan: You would think that, but if you put yourself in a bubble that it's all you hear, just again like the algorithm, you're gonna have a confirmation bias around you all the time. You know, and if that's all you that's all you consuming, you can get Jason: I think Hollywood and the government's all consumed by what I told ya demonic crap. Bryan: That's possible. I'm again, I'm not saying that you should I don't think you should ever want to move out of this country. I think we live in the greatest country in the world. But if you really believe that the devil himself was gonna be running the country that you live in, and you got the Jason: Where'd Rosie move to? Canada? Bryan: I think she moved to Ireland. Jason: And you heard it wasn't she was saying it wasn't as Bryan: I don't think the people in Ireland knows something. I don't know, it was something that went back and forth and I don't think she might have moved back. Jason: 'Cause of the political climate. He has also said she is pursuing Irish citizenship through her family ancestry. It doesn't say anything about them her and the Irish fighting. They probably don't want her fat ass over there anyways. She'll start some piss ass program like the View. Hell no. You cause us all to drink more than what we already do. Bryan: A few more things before we go. So I was a smoker for a long time. You used to smoke. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: And now that I don't smoke anymore, I I notice well, even before I stopped smoking, I noticed the pattern of smokers more than ever. And that actually smoking patterns is what actually got me to quit smoking back in twenty seventeen. And if you've never smoked, you will not understand the stranglehold that a cigarette has on you. When you get up in the morning, first thing you need is a smoke. You eat, you need a smoke. You get a little stressed, you need a smoke. And what's really fucked up, if you can't smoke, you stress out about needing to smoke, what makes you want to fucking smoke. Every smoker, whether they realize it or not, has a routine on when they smoke and how much they smoke. They have a set count they're gonna smoke that day. And they make sure that they have that number before they start their day. How I know? Because the last thing you do before you go to bed is fill your lungs up one last time. You need enough smoke in your lungs to get you through the night. Because God Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: forbid. You get some fucking clean oxygen in them lungs. Then while you're smoking that last cigarette, you're calculating how many smokes you have left. And do you need to get some in the morning? Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: Then that first morning smoke, you're recalculating your daily cigarette count. Smokers are controlled by that fucking cigarette. I know because that shit had me too. I get it. But smokers have some unique routines. And I'm bringing this up not to pick on smokers because I'll never say I'll never smoke again. Because I at one time I quit for seven years before I picked the habit right back up, like it never missed the beat. Smoking is a hard habit to break. And I get it. And if you haven't started smoking, don't ever pick it up. It's probably one of the worst habits you'll ever get. And again, it it'll grab you by the balls. But I want to bring it up because, like I said, I noticed patterns of smokers now. And one of the patterns I laugh at every time I see it is someone smoking right before they go into a building that doesn't allow smoking. Like somebody walking into a store or something. You'll see a smoker, and I was guilty of this shit too. So I'm not pointing fingers. See a smoker just hitting a cigarette hard as fuck right before they get in the door. Jason: Hot box of that bitch. Bryan: You know? Just that one last pull of fucking carcinogens, you know, just to fill your lungs up. Jason: Have had cherry that long. Bryan: Yeah. Just to make sure you can you had enough smoke in your lungs to get you through that fucking store wherever you get, you know. Just to get you back out the door a store without dying to have another cigarette. It's almost like a diver going underwater. You know, like getting that last bit of air before you go fucking underwater. You gotta keep them lungs full to survive. And every time I see this shit, I laugh. And I just thought I'd share that with you. So next time you see somebody going in the store and they smoking and you're seeing them just to make sure they got enough smoke in their lungs to last them that thirty minutes while they're in the store before they Jason: If it was a convenience store, there's been times I don't know why I did. I put my cigarette down on the sidewalk, still lit, thinking I Bryan: No I'd put it like on the window or something and Jason: yeah, to come back out, grab that sucker, and start hitting it. And it I meant the wind would blow and blow it somewhere else. And I'd I'd go looking for it like it, like I lost my kid. I was like, Marlborough, Marlborough, where'd you go? Bryan: Everything you did though was for that cigarette. Everything you do for that cigarette. Jason: The shit we did for cigarettes, dude. Dude. I did it with you. Bryan: No, I'm talking about that well well nicotine to back a period is like when it Jason: Tobacco period, dude. I used to dig for empty chew cans and scrape all the little bits out that I didn't get and try to put a chew together out of five cans because I didn't have any at the house and the store was closed and I was wigging out. I'm out sitting there like Bryan: Or you'll stress out too. If if you run out and you don't know if you can get some more, that'll stress you out. Jason: Here we crack on meth heads and fentanyl people, man. We were just as bad. Bryan: yeah. Jason: It's all bad, man. It's crazy. People sitting there gonna be watching this. I ain't like that. Bryan: No, I like that. I don't have any of them routines. Jason: Out there in like negative thirty degree weather, fucking shivering to death to get a damn hit. Bryan: Boy, that's when I realized I had a problem when I was in negative fifteen weather up in Erie, Pennsylvania, me and my brother outside fucking smoking. Are you serious? You know. Yeah. Jason: Dude, can I say something? I've been staying at a hotel right up there where we're doing this project at. And I stay up there Sunday night through and then come home Friday morning. And every time I go in it says, no smoking within 30 feet of this building. And all I can remember when I'm seeing that is you saying you would test the the front counter person, how much is the fee for smoking in a room? Three hundred and fifty bucks here, we're gonna go ahead and pay that now. Bryan: Can I just pay that now? No, that's to deter you from Well, if if that's what you're gonna charge for smoking room, I'll just pay for it and just Yeah. Jason: It ain't deterring me. Let's go ahead and let's go ahead and what do you call that when you square up? We're gonna go ahead and make us we're gonna make us whole. So 'cause I'm gonna Bryan: Well. Yeah, they didn't they didn't like that. Jason: smoke in that room. I knew f I had buddies in high school, man, that would smoke in the shower. Bryan: Smoke in the shower. Jason: They would put it put his back to the water and yeah, would sit there and smoke a cigarette in the shower and then he would finish up. Bryan: I've never smoked a cigarette. But I've never drank beer Jason: No. Bryan: or nothing in the shower. I'm not in the shower long enough to do all that. You know, that my goal is not to sit in there. Jason: Mine either, but he he enjoyed it. He said there was nothing like smoking in the shower. I'm like okay. Do you Bryan: A couple more things. Go ahead. Go ahead. I thought you had something you was finished saying. Jason: What? No, I said he did a lot of weird stuff in the shower. well I don't know what else he did in the shower. I know he drank Bryan: Hey. Jason: a beer and he he would smoke in the shower and I was like, Whatever dude, do you Bryan: we'd have guys especially when I was in Japan, well we still had community showers and they would go in the shower with six pack and it's like, dude, you gonna be in that long enough to drink a six pack? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, Jason: What are you doing in here? Bryan: it's like shit. Jason: We're not having a we're not dropping the soap up in this soap buck. Bryan: No. Jason: Watch it, get out of here. But anyway. Bryan: Another thing I was thinking about, this is a few weeks ago, and I'd mentioned this to you on the phone a few weeks ago. but one of the hardest things of having a pet is the day you have to put them down. You know, Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: you you likely bring them to the vet, and the vet will tell you the best option is to put them down. And I imagine this happens a lot. Therefore, vets, those people get used to killing animals quite regularly. You know? Okay. Yeah. Jason: We discussed this, yeah. Bryan: Kind of like serial killers kill animals when they're kids, you know? Jason: Like Dexter. Bryan: Yeah, that so does this admitted a question, does this lead to vets being morbid or even lead to them killing? Now, of course, I'm I I guess you'd say being facetious. It's all joking, but it was what I started thinking about. I mean, so think about it. Jason: Am I joking? Bryan: Yeah. Yeah, the they kill the first pet, right? And it's somebody else's pet. It's not their pet. So I get it. They kill the I'll call it it's Jason: But it still hurts. Bryan: still a pet. You know, so they kill the first one. Imagine the first one fucks you up. You know, you probably gotta leave Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: and take a shower because you just feel dirty. You know, maybe have maybe have a few drinks, drink it off. Years of doing this shit, you you you probably like eating a fucking sandwich. Why you doing it? You you got your kids on FaceTime. You know, it just don't bother you anymore. You you you Jason: Right. Bryan: You went from man this sucks to next, you know, and just bringing them in. And Jason: How many euthanizations we got today, Six? All right. Bryan: Yeah, you that's that's even worse. Can you can you imagine if you get so bad to where you enjoy it to where somebody brings in a healthy dog and you're like, Yeah, I think we have to put him down. He was just scratching behind his ear. Yeah, I I s I just don't think he's gonna make it. You know, but he w yeah, Jason: That's a bad sign. Bryan: it's a bad sign. We we've had one last week, we're scratching behind his ear and his brain fell out the other side, you know, it just We just we got to put them down. You know, I'm not saying that vet's gonna become Ted Bundy, you know. But I would assume that this repetition of killing pets would make you a little morbid. I just would assume that, you know. But think about it. I mean, you still take it on life. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: So I looked into it, and roughly one third of serial killers have admitted to hurting, torturing, or killing animals prior to killing people. Now it's possible that they're more, because not all serial killers' files are public, but from what I found, a third of the serial killers are hurting, torturing, or killing animals. This doesn't mean that a third of our vets are fucking serial killers. But you might want to keep an eye on them, motherfuckers, you know. I'm just saying. Just saying Ha ha ha. Jason: See now you gonna have me eyeballing my vet now every time I go over there be like Bryan: I will tell you this, when you bring your your vet your pet in there and they tell it they need to put it down, you might want to second guess it. No. Why do you really want to kill my dog? You know. no. Jason: You got a you got a hunger you need to quench? Bryan: Ha ha Jason: Get you some lab rats or something. Bryan: All right. One last thing. All right. One last thing. And I realized this this week. I realize how old I am. I know I'm old and I and I've always realized that old, but I didn't realize how old I was. So we have a younger guy that started working with us a few months back. And this week we discussed music for a bit, you know, and and I realized we have some of the same taste in music. Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: But we don't have the same name for the music that we both like. The Jason: Mm-hmm. Bryan: music I like, I call rock and metal. The music I like that he also likes, he calls it classic rock. Jason: Yeah. Bryan: That's when it hit me that the music that I love is now classic rock. You know, so I'm I'm classic rock o did you realize that? Jason: Yeah, because on Spotify when I try to go pull up stuff we used to listen to in California and the Marines and all that Bryan: Yeah. Jason: on what was that? K Rock. Bryan: K Rot. Jason: Yeah. It's it's under classic now. Bryan: So your classic Rocco Jason: Classic alternative and all that. I think what is it? They done changed the name of alternative to Indy. Bryan: Okay. Jason: I I don't know. My my daughter asked me that. Was red hot chili peppers came on when we we went up to the hardware store today to get a garden hose for the pressure washer and w she's got a roaring in her car. I think it's a wheel bearing going out. And so she wanted me to listen to it. Well, when we were coming back, the red hot chili peppers were playing and she said, I really like them. I said, Yeah. I said, I wasn't a big fan of them. They had to grow on me and she's like Are they is that indie? And I was like, sweetheart, I don't even know what indie is. I said, We called it alternative. Bryan: Well, indie indie rock is a small group. I wouldn't consider red hot chili peppers. Well, I mean they they Jason: No, they're alternative like Green Day and Bryan: they're a much bigger group. I don't I don't know. Jason: Death. Bryan: When I think of indie rock, I th and I don't even can tell you a band of indie rock, but I think of like just small bands that, you know, they're good, but they just they're not world stage like the red hot chili peppers. Jason: Well, it Bryan: I don't know. I could Jason: and when I was younger, dude, you had you had like hip hop, like rap, like Dr. Dre and Snoop and Two Live Crew and and Easy E and NWA and all you know, Ice Cube, Ice T. You had them and then you had what R and B, which was like Key Sweat and you know That had the love songs and all that stuff, the love making music. Yeah, that Bailey Burr. Yeah. Bryan: Belly rubbing music. That belly rubbing music. Jason: Yeah. Getting pregnant music. And and then you had like pop. Bryan: Soda. Jason: that would play like in between that stuff like more here we go with the racist comment more white groups or whatever they were more of the pop because R and B was black. It was rhythm and blues and it was bl more black bands or black people and I listened the shit out of some R and B. Y Yes. Yeah Bryan: Pop was more like your Britney Spears and your new kids on the block and shit like that. Jason: that was pop and then you had rock and then you had heavy metal. And now they got like two hundred damn versions of now they wanna break it down to like hairbands, grunge, death metal, like dude, they got like two hundred versions of damn metal or like rock and roll now. It it blows my mind. Bryan: Yeah, but it's all classic rock. Jason: But I still think classic rock being like Leonard Skinnard and old Aerosmith and Yeah. Yeah. Bryan: That's our classic rock, but that yeah, yeah, that's not the kids' classic rock. Their classic Jason: Yeah. Bryan: rock is what we listen to. So yeah. Jason: Yeah. It's crazy.
