- 0:56SPEAKER_04: Hey you guys.
- 0:58SPEAKER_04: Well, Julie, what do you think of my shirt, by the way?
- 1:00SPEAKER_04: Let me move my camera here.
- 1:02SPEAKER_04: I love it.
- 1:02SPEAKER_01: I haven't seen it.
- 1:03SPEAKER_01: I'm so jealous.
- 1:04SPEAKER_04: It's a cornish pasty shirt.
- 1:07SPEAKER_04: I'm working a pasty double later on.
- 1:08SPEAKER_01: Pasty double.
- 1:09SPEAKER_01: Did you see the back of it?
- 1:10SPEAKER_01: No, I didn't.
- 1:11SPEAKER_01: Show me.
- 1:12unknown: Check that out.
- 1:12SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's sick.
- 1:14SPEAKER_01: 10th anniversary.
- 1:15SPEAKER_01: It's got the date.
- 1:17SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 1:17SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 1:18SPEAKER_01: You should have gotten that tattooed.
- 1:20SPEAKER_04: Well, well, so this I got this obviously at their 10th anniversary event that they had, which was awesome.
- 1:27SPEAKER_04: I got there early and it was packed even at like 2 p.m.
- 1:31SPEAKER_04: And it was, I'm sure it was busy all day long.
- 1:34SPEAKER_04: But they had tattoo artists in the back that were just there.
- 1:37SPEAKER_04: They were fully licensed and you know they were allowed to do what they were doing where they were, but they were giving out free tattoos.
- 1:43SPEAKER_04: And at first I thought it was like fake tattoos.
- 1:46SPEAKER_04: I thought they were doing the custom fake tattoos.
- 1:49SPEAKER_04: And John came over and I go, This is probably a dumb question, but are those real tattoos or fake tattoos?
- 1:55SPEAKER_04: He didn't answer me.
- 1:56SPEAKER_04: He just kind of smirked.
- 1:57SPEAKER_04: And I said, Well, I guess I'll find out, won't I?
- 2:01SPEAKER_01: Well, it's kind of a dumb question.
- 2:02SPEAKER_04: Listen, there are no dumb questions, only dumb tattoos.
- 2:05SPEAKER_04: But all of those tattoos that they had.
- 2:07SPEAKER_04: I was gonna get the picture of John holding the uh pasty and a cowboy hat looking like John Wayne, but they didn't have the file.
- 2:16SPEAKER_01: Bomber.
- 2:17SPEAKER_01: Next time.
- 2:17SPEAKER_04: I could have gotten John tattooed on me for life.
- 2:20SPEAKER_04: That would have been fun.
- 2:21SPEAKER_04: Maybe it would have gotten free.
- 2:22SPEAKER_04: You think it would have gotten free pasties for life if I got a picture of John tattooed on me?
- 2:26SPEAKER_01: No.
- 2:27SPEAKER_04: No.
- 2:27SPEAKER_01: Not for life.
- 2:28SPEAKER_01: Maybe one.
- 2:30SPEAKER_04: It's okay.
- 2:31SPEAKER_04: Well, today's election day, everywhere in the country, November 3rd.
- 2:36SPEAKER_04: Julie, did you vote?
- 2:37SPEAKER_01: I did.
- 2:38SPEAKER_04: Did you?
- 2:38SPEAKER_04: Early vote.
- 2:39SPEAKER_04: Early voting.
- 2:40SPEAKER_04: Smart.
- 2:40SPEAKER_01: Early voting, yeah.
- 2:42SPEAKER_04: Uh I did uh we got invited, obviously, because we've had Susie Lee on, we've had Aaron Ford on, we've had uh Bobby Kahn on.
- 2:50SPEAKER_04: We've this season, we've kind of kind of slowly turned into a political podcast.
- 2:56SPEAKER_04: Uh briefly, for a brief moment.
- 2:58SPEAKER_01: I don't know that we're I wouldn't say that.
- 3:01SPEAKER_01: I'd say that we're a Vegas local podcast.
- 3:04SPEAKER_01: It is election season.
- 3:05SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 3:06SPEAKER_01: There are a lot of changes potentially on the table.
- 3:09SPEAKER_01: And like you can't, I mean, you can't be a local podcast and not talk about like local leadership.
- 3:14SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 3:14SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 3:15SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 3:15SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 3:15SPEAKER_04: I mean, we're not necessarily talking about politics without them being here.
- 3:19SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 3:19SPEAKER_04: It's not one of those cases because I don't think we'd be able to really carry on a I mean, I wouldn't be able to carry on a full, fully fledged conversation of politics without a guest being in front of us who's well informed about what they're doing and all that stuff.
- 3:31SPEAKER_04: But we got invited to the rally for Ford, Susie Lee, uh Steve and Horsford was there, Titus, Tina Titus was there, and there's somebody else there also, but I can't remember.
- 3:44SPEAKER_04: But I thought it was pretty cool.
- 3:45SPEAKER_04: It was the first rally I've ever been to.
- 3:47SPEAKER_04: If you would have told me any other time in my life, Andrew, you're gonna go to a political rally.
- 3:52SPEAKER_04: I wouldn't have believed you for a second.
- 3:54SPEAKER_04: But there I was at a rally up in North Vegas, and it was fun.
- 3:59SPEAKER_04: It was they were all packed in there in this in this room that people were getting set up and stuff like that.
- 4:05SPEAKER_04: Uh, we got invited as media, so I got to get a little bit more access than the people that were there just to celebrate and um with everyone.
- 4:16SPEAKER_04: But fortunately, because there were really only a handful of local influencers there, uh, we were able to get into a room alone with uh Aaron Ford and really have you know maybe a minute segment each.
- 4:32SPEAKER_04: Like each of us had had a minute a piece to ask him a question or to kind of chat with him.
- 4:38SPEAKER_04: And uh it was fun.
- 4:39SPEAKER_04: I uh he he remembered us.
- 4:41SPEAKER_04: He he called called us big head.
- 4:43SPEAKER_04: He's a big head.
- 4:44SPEAKER_01: I love that.
- 4:46SPEAKER_04: Um, we talked about I asked him a question about uh if people people who feel like their votes don't matter, and he kind of shared a story about how he just barely won as uh attorney general by a matter of like 4,500 votes.
- 4:59SPEAKER_04: So every vote absolutely does count.
- 5:02SPEAKER_04: And then you know, we had a little fun about the scorebar thing that was pretty cool, too.
- 5:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah, how's your tooth doing?
- 5:08SPEAKER_04: Oh, it's good.
- 5:08SPEAKER_04: I I got it, I got it replaced.
- 5:09SPEAKER_04: Nice.
- 5:10SPEAKER_01: Oh, the replacement.
- 5:11SPEAKER_04: Yeah, don't worry.
- 5:12SPEAKER_04: I'm sending them the bill for sure, for sure.
- 5:15SPEAKER_04: But it was fun.
- 5:16SPEAKER_04: Um and yeah, you know, we'll see.
- 5:19SPEAKER_04: I'll be honest, like I said, like I we had Bobby Khan on, and we he shared his story and his strategy of you know how he's independent and not really taking money from anybody, and his campaign is strictly on social media.
- 5:36SPEAKER_04: And I thought, you know, that's I I'm I'm very excited to see what happens, regardless if he wins or not.
- 5:43SPEAKER_04: I'm excited to see if the shift of putting your time and attention is on social media and podcasts more so than TV commercials or billboards or whatever it is.
- 5:55SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I we'll we'll see what happens.
- 5:57SPEAKER_04: He's going against Dina Titus, but it'll be interesting to see what happens.
- 6:02SPEAKER_04: And uh either way, I think it that that's definitely the the trend that it's going is more focused on the social media and the podcast side of things.
- 6:11SPEAKER_04: I think Susie Lee went on a handful of podcasts.
- 6:13SPEAKER_04: I know um Aaron Ford did as well.
- 6:17SPEAKER_01: Mike Davis said that like Kamala missed out huge by not doing podcasts, right?
- 6:22SPEAKER_01: Like that was what he said last time he was on.
- 6:24SPEAKER_04: I'd be curious to see if she does a lot more podcasts.
- 6:27SPEAKER_01: If she's I think she already has been.
- 6:29SPEAKER_04: Has she?
- 6:29SPEAKER_01: I think so.
- 6:30SPEAKER_04: Well, there you go.
- 6:31SPEAKER_01: I actually I saw this post earlier.
- 6:33SPEAKER_01: It's relevant to what we're talking about.
- 6:35SPEAKER_04: I'm sure it does.
- 6:36SPEAKER_01: I thought it was so funny.
- 6:37SPEAKER_01: It said, the only thing that could sway my vote is six unsolicited text messages from numbers I don't know in the middle of my work day.
- 6:46SPEAKER_01: You know I think everybody is so ready for the text messages to stop.
- 6:51SPEAKER_01: And I know you can opt out of them, but I'm kind of lazy, so I like don't opt out of any messages really.
- 6:57SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 6:57SPEAKER_01: But I think we're all so sick of it.
- 6:59SPEAKER_04: You know what's wild is so I don't know if I've said this on the show or not, but I mean I I've I'm registered as Republican, but I kind of bounce around between which side I'm on, and I you know voted for Ford and Susie Lee and everything.
- 7:12SPEAKER_04: I I would have voted for Bobby Khan if I could, but either way.
- 7:16SPEAKER_04: I'm getting a lot of Trump text messages, and a lot of these messages are saying Trump made a specific video just for you, Andrew.
- 7:25SPEAKER_01: Okay, that's weird.
- 7:27SPEAKER_04: And so I play it, and let's let's let me let me just show you what it what what what these videos are.
- 7:33SPEAKER_04: Hang on, let me play this real quick.
- 7:34SPEAKER_00: 46 midterm elections are upon us, and I'm asking every patriot to get out and vote.
- 7:41SPEAKER_00: Especially you, Andrew.
- 7:43SPEAKER_02: You are with us, and I'm counting on you again.
- 7:46unknown: This is one of the most important things.
- 7:48SPEAKER_04: Which first of all, blows my mind that he's gotta be AI, right?
- 7:50SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's so what he's doing is, and I'm assuming this is what he's doing, is he's saying the first part, and then the second part is him, you know, generating an AI, you know, voice, and then yeah, but it's I thought it was very funny.
- 8:06SPEAKER_01: That's scary.
- 8:08SPEAKER_04: It's crazy, and I'm getting these text messages that are saying things like President Trump made a special video just for you, Andrew, or President Trump's in Arizona and he personally invited you, Andrew.
- 8:18SPEAKER_04: Here's the video.
- 8:19SPEAKER_01: Andrew, you're personally invited to Mar-a-Lago.
- 8:22SPEAKER_04: Andrew, you're personally invited to F State Island.
- 8:25SPEAKER_01: I get the messages that are like, here's a video from Ice T telling you to go vote.
- 8:31SPEAKER_04: I'll tell you what, that'll that that would sway me.
- 8:34SPEAKER_04: God bless you, Ice T.
- 8:35SPEAKER_04: But it was fun to see a rally in person last night.
- 8:38SPEAKER_04: Uh, I didn't stay for the whole thing, but I saw a good portion of it.
- 8:41SPEAKER_04: And obviously getting the chance to see Aaron again was awesome.
- 8:45SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 8:45SPEAKER_04: And uh Susie Lee walking around shaking hands, Dina Titus, everybody was kind of walking around, shaking hands.
- 8:50SPEAKER_04: And it was it was it was a fun experience.
- 8:52SPEAKER_04: I don't know if I'd go to another rally because I'm not like that type of political uh fan, I guess, or whatever you want to call it.
- 9:00SPEAKER_04: But it was fun to experience.
- 9:02SPEAKER_04: And you know, we'll see what happens.
- 9:04SPEAKER_04: Today's the day.
- 9:05SPEAKER_01: We're not gonna know today.
- 9:06SPEAKER_04: We're gonna know tonight.
- 9:08SPEAKER_04: By tomorrow morning, we'll know exactly who wins.
- 9:10SPEAKER_01: This is not American Idol.
- 9:11SPEAKER_01: We will not know tonight.
- 9:15SPEAKER_04: Uh staying on the politics game.
- 9:17SPEAKER_04: Have you seen this Instagram post of the projection that somebody had on Trump Tower?
- 9:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I did see that.
- 9:23SPEAKER_01: It was on my Instagram feed yesterday.
- 9:26SPEAKER_04: So, what it looked like is somebody from somebody got a room at where?
- 9:31SPEAKER_04: Treasure island or something like that?
- 9:32SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 9:33SPEAKER_01: If you look at the second photo that's linked in the rundown, you can see like their computer.
- 9:40SPEAKER_01: So whatever that hotel is, like directly across from Trump Tower.
- 9:44SPEAKER_04: I'm thinking that's Treasure Island.
- 9:47SPEAKER_01: I mean, it is right there, but I don't know for sure.
- 9:50SPEAKER_01: We'll look at a map.
- 9:51SPEAKER_04: They said it was 200 meters away, and basically they had a projector shoot out from their room up to the top of the Trump hotel, and at the top of the hotel, obviously it says the words Trump or the word Trump, and then to the right of that, it has the the words out.
- 10:07SPEAKER_04: So Trump out uh projected on the hotel.
- 10:11SPEAKER_04: As impressive as as that is, as hilarious as that is, I'm more impressed with this projector.
- 10:16SPEAKER_01: Where is this really great projector, huh?
- 10:19SPEAKER_04: This is a great ad for that projector.
- 10:21SPEAKER_04: We gotta find it, get it, set up an affiliate code, and then just sell that on our website.
- 10:26SPEAKER_01: Honestly, it might be in the comments somewhere, or we'll just comment on it.
- 10:30SPEAKER_01: Hey, what can can you tell us the brand of that projector?
- 10:33SPEAKER_01: We'll start projecting the big head logo all around the city.
- 10:38SPEAKER_04: But what what what they probably did was they probably this was so they they did this weeks ago.
- 10:43SPEAKER_04: Is that what they said?
- 10:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it says uh a few weeks ago we managed to rent a room opposite the building.
- 10:48SPEAKER_04: So they they rented this out, they took a handful of videos, a handful of photos.
- 10:53SPEAKER_04: It was probably up.
- 10:54SPEAKER_04: Chances are it wasn't up for that long because I don't remember seeing any news about this like on the in the media at all.
- 11:01SPEAKER_01: I didn't see it either.
- 11:03SPEAKER_04: Other than just this post today.
- 11:05SPEAKER_04: So they probably only had it up for a brief moment, took some videos, took some photos, and then took it down.
- 11:09SPEAKER_04: And obviously the photos and the videos speak louder than anything else.
- 11:13SPEAKER_04: But that's that's what we should do.
- 11:15SPEAKER_04: We should get that projector, we should go around, blast the big head logo on all sorts of buildings and places, take some photos, take some videos, and then take it down.
- 11:25SPEAKER_01: Do you think we could get it to like bat signal out of the Luxor?
- 11:30SPEAKER_01: Yes, yes, what do we need?
- 11:33SPEAKER_04: What do we need to do to do that?
- 11:34SPEAKER_01: Uh, we need Chris Angel to levitate above the building.
- 11:37SPEAKER_04: Your boy, mine freak.
- 11:39SPEAKER_01: My boy, Chris Angel.
- 11:40SPEAKER_04: I love that people so people are saying proper vandalism.
- 11:43SPEAKER_04: Is is this vandalism?
- 11:45SPEAKER_01: No.
- 11:46SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 11:47SPEAKER_01: Not in my opinion.
- 11:48SPEAKER_01: Is it vandalism when they do those movie nights at the park and put a projector on a screen?
- 11:53SPEAKER_01: It's not vandalism, it's not permanent, right?
- 11:56SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 11:56SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
- 11:58SPEAKER_04: Sometimes people just throw things out there.
- 11:59SPEAKER_04: I mean, at what point is it vandalism?
- 12:02SPEAKER_04: Like if it were to make a mark on the building, then obviously that would be vandalism.
- 12:06SPEAKER_04: But is a projector shooting out on the building actually vandalism or not?
- 12:10SPEAKER_01: There's no way.
- 12:11SPEAKER_04: What's what's vandalism to you?
- 12:13SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna look up the definition.
- 12:15SPEAKER_04: Um you do that.
- 12:16SPEAKER_04: You do that.
- 12:17SPEAKER_01: Vandalism definition.
- 12:18SPEAKER_04: This is why we need a lawyer on the show at all times to give us the proper explanations on this.
- 12:24SPEAKER_01: You want Miriam Webster?
- 12:26SPEAKER_04: Let's see what old Miriam says.
- 12:28SPEAKER_01: Willful or malicious destruction or defacement of public or private property.
- 12:34SPEAKER_04: Is it willful?
- 12:36SPEAKER_04: It's not destruction, but is it defacement?
- 12:37SPEAKER_01: Is it defacement?
- 12:44SPEAKER_01: No, the act of damaging or spoiling the outward appearance, surface, or legibility of something.
- 12:50SPEAKER_01: No, you're not damaging it.
- 12:52SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 12:52SPEAKER_01: I don't think it is.
- 12:54SPEAKER_01: I don't think anyone could get in trouble for that, but maybe they were worried about it, and maybe that's why we hypothesize it was not up for that long.
- 13:01SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 13:01SPEAKER_01: Also, if they were staying at Treasure Island, like can they get in trouble with Treasure Island for doing that from their property?
- 13:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 13:08SPEAKER_04: Who knows?
- 13:09SPEAKER_04: I wonder how many more people are gonna do this now that they've seen that.
- 13:11SPEAKER_01: Probably a ton.
- 13:12SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 13:12SPEAKER_01: Probably a ton of people.
- 13:14SPEAKER_04: If I were Treasure Island, I would jack up the prices for all the rooms facing Trump Tower, and therefore you make some extra money on it.
- 13:21SPEAKER_01: Absolutely.
- 13:23SPEAKER_01: Yeah, absolutely.
- 13:24SPEAKER_01: You call it the Trump Trump view.
- 13:27SPEAKER_04: Sometimes you get the strip view, you get the mountain view, and you get the Trump view.
- 13:34SPEAKER_04: Oh my gosh.
- 13:36SPEAKER_04: But it's been it's it's gonna be a crazy week for sure.
- 13:39SPEAKER_04: And it's been a crazy week because this past weekend was Halloween, which fine, whatever.
- 13:45SPEAKER_01: We we got dressed up as do not fine whatever Halloween on my watch.
- 13:51SPEAKER_04: What is that supposed to be?
- 13:52SPEAKER_01: That is my favorite holiday.
- 13:53SPEAKER_01: You're not just gonna find whatever it fine.
- 13:58SPEAKER_04: We dressed up as past guests.
- 14:00SPEAKER_04: We got some great feedback from everybody.
- 14:02SPEAKER_04: Everybody was honored.
- 14:03SPEAKER_04: Piff reshared the picture of you.
- 14:05SPEAKER_04: How cool is that?
- 14:06SPEAKER_01: Dude, you're on best friends now.
- 14:08SPEAKER_04: I know you are.
- 14:08SPEAKER_04: You're on Aaron Ford's uh Instagram profile.
- 14:13SPEAKER_04: You've been reshared by Piff multiple times.
- 14:16SPEAKER_04: Is this not the coolest job you've ever had in your life?
- 14:18SPEAKER_01: It is the coolest job I've ever had in my life.
- 14:21SPEAKER_04: But there's always a button.
- 14:23SPEAKER_01: I just don't know why that was the question you went with.
- 14:26SPEAKER_01: Like, you could have asked something that wasn't about your ego.
- 14:28SPEAKER_02: This show is literally called Hey Big Head.
- 14:32SPEAKER_01: You could have said, like, how does that make you feel?
- 14:34SPEAKER_01: No.
- 14:34SPEAKER_01: But you went with, Am I the best boss?
- 14:37SPEAKER_04: How does it make you feel to have the best job ever?
- 14:39SPEAKER_04: That's what I want to know.
- 14:40SPEAKER_01: But we also I do love my job and it's very cool.
- 14:43SPEAKER_04: Damn right.
- 14:44SPEAKER_04: We also had uh two events that we've been promoting pretty heavily that I want to talk about just a little bit, recap on.
- 14:51SPEAKER_04: We had Legal Limit with Lisa Foyles at the Punk Rock Museum.
- 14:56SPEAKER_01: Great.
- 14:57SPEAKER_01: The bar in there.
- 14:58SPEAKER_04: The the three-star bar, I think it's called.
- 15:00SPEAKER_01: Three-star punk bar?
- 15:01SPEAKER_04: Three three-star punk bar.
- 15:03SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 15:03SPEAKER_04: Awesome show.
- 15:05SPEAKER_04: Which, by the way, for anybody that ever goes to a show at Punk Rock Museum, which you absolutely should because it's a great experience.
- 15:11SPEAKER_04: Probably Uber there, though.
- 15:13SPEAKER_01: Definitely Uber there.
- 15:14SPEAKER_04: There are only 13 parking spots, and the street parking is so limited.
- 15:19SPEAKER_04: And next door is that adult gentleman's club and Little Darlings.
- 15:24SPEAKER_04: Little Darlings, and they're tempting you so badly with all their open parking spots they have to park there.
- 15:30SPEAKER_04: But you know that if you do, you're gonna get towed.
- 15:31SPEAKER_01: Can we talk about that?
- 15:32SPEAKER_01: Friday night before Halloween at what was like 9 p.m.
- 15:37SPEAKER_04: Sure.
- 15:38SPEAKER_01: Little Darling's parking lot was like empty.
- 15:41SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 15:42SPEAKER_01: Weird.
- 15:43SPEAKER_01: That was just a side comment.
- 15:45SPEAKER_01: But even on so on the front door of the punk rock museum, did you see the sign they have that says if you parked at Little Darlings, you will get towed.
- 15:53SPEAKER_01: Go move your car.
- 15:54SPEAKER_04: Actually, I did see that.
- 15:54SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 15:55SPEAKER_04: And then it said ask the the bouncer, the the front desk, uh, where you should park.
- 16:01SPEAKER_04: But yeah, I I was I managed to park over by uh Hardhat Lounge.
- 16:06SPEAKER_04: Where did you guys park?
- 16:07SPEAKER_04: You guys parked on the street?
- 16:08SPEAKER_01: Literally just did some street parking right out front.
- 16:11SPEAKER_01: There was no sign that said you couldn't.
- 16:13SPEAKER_01: We weren't in a fire lane, but it's a bold move.
- 16:16SPEAKER_01: We did keep running back and forth to the front door all night to make sure our car didn't get towed.
- 16:21SPEAKER_01: But they I mean, what?
- 16:22SPEAKER_01: There were 15 other cars parked right there.
- 16:25SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 16:25SPEAKER_01: So what are they gonna do?
- 16:27SPEAKER_04: It would ruin your Halloween if you got your car towed.
- 16:30SPEAKER_01: It would ruin my Halloween.
- 16:31SPEAKER_04: That would be a bummer.
- 16:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 16:32SPEAKER_04: But no, Lisa Foyles Legal Limit, they did a great job.
- 16:35SPEAKER_04: Did you see the girl that dressed up as Lisa Foyles' character on all that?
- 16:39SPEAKER_01: Oh my gosh, I did.
- 16:41SPEAKER_04: That was a great costume.
- 16:42SPEAKER_01: She did so good.
- 16:43SPEAKER_04: What was the what was the character again?
- 16:45SPEAKER_01: Oh my god, what is her name?
- 16:46SPEAKER_01: It starts with a C, doesn't it?
- 16:48SPEAKER_01: Lisa Foyle's goth character.
- 16:53SPEAKER_01: Claudia.
- 16:54SPEAKER_04: Claudia.
- 16:55SPEAKER_04: So Lisa Foyles played a uh her most famous role on all that, or recurring role, was Claudia, who was like this goth emo teenage girl.
- 17:06SPEAKER_04: And that was her thing.
- 17:07unknown: Yeah.
- 17:08SPEAKER_04: It was it was a very Wednesday Adams-like.
- 17:10SPEAKER_04: But yeah, there's somebody that dressed up like that.
- 17:12SPEAKER_04: We entered the costume contest, neither of us won.
- 17:14SPEAKER_04: I know I I didn't care because I was Guy Fieri, but you, I could tell you were pissed.
- 17:19SPEAKER_01: I did care a little bit.
- 17:20SPEAKER_01: And the only reason I cared a little bit is because mine was homemade.
- 17:25SPEAKER_01: I worked really hard on our costume.
- 17:27SPEAKER_04: Here's the problem with your costume.
- 17:28SPEAKER_04: You dressed up as who?
- 17:31SPEAKER_01: The characters from the game Cult of the Lamb.
- 17:34SPEAKER_01: Which I really don't care if it's that popular of a game or not.
- 17:38SPEAKER_01: The thing is, is like we're a we're a goat and a lamb leading a cult.
- 17:46SPEAKER_01: I made homemade hexagram capes and hats.
- 17:53SPEAKER_04: Nobody appreciated the homemade hand-stitched capes and caps and horns.
- 17:58SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 17:58SPEAKER_01: It was really good.
- 18:00SPEAKER_04: I I touched the horn.
- 18:01SPEAKER_04: It was actually really well made.
- 18:03SPEAKER_04: So you did good.
- 18:04SPEAKER_04: I can tell you you took a long time doing that.
- 18:06SPEAKER_04: But yeah, the problem is it was too specific, and the demographic of gamers wasn't there at the punk rock museum that night.
- 18:14SPEAKER_01: I don't care if the gamers were there.
- 18:16SPEAKER_01: I thought the cult aspect would be more appreciated.
- 18:19SPEAKER_01: Well, like even if I hadn't played the game ever and someone was like, Oh, I'm a goat who leads a cult.
- 18:26SPEAKER_04: You had 10 seconds to to sway them.
- 18:29SPEAKER_04: Not even 10 seconds to sway them when he announced who you were.
- 18:32SPEAKER_04: In those 10 seconds, you can't explain the cult-like thing.
- 18:35SPEAKER_04: You can't explain it.
- 18:36SPEAKER_04: It was it was too niche.
- 18:38SPEAKER_01: But also, and like no shame, because like you do you people, but the announcer of the costume contest was like, I want to see people getting up here and shaking ass and being nasty.
- 18:50SPEAKER_01: And I feel like you had yeah, I feel like you had to like do something like that in order to like move into the next round.
- 18:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 18:58SPEAKER_01: Which, like, I'm all for sexy Halloween, but that's not the vibe I was on this year.
- 19:02SPEAKER_04: No, I mean, same with me.
- 19:03SPEAKER_04: I was I was sexy guy Fieri.
- 19:06SPEAKER_04: And um I'm sorry.
- 19:07SPEAKER_04: What?
- 19:16SPEAKER_04: What flavortown, baby?
- 19:18SPEAKER_04: made Flavortown.
- 19:20SPEAKER_01: What made the costume sexy?
- 19:21SPEAKER_04: I unbuttoned an extra button on my flame button-down short sleeve t-shirt.
- 19:26SPEAKER_01: Were you also sexy Nas last week when you pretty much took your shirt off?
- 19:31SPEAKER_04: I'm just showing chest hair left and right.
- 19:33SPEAKER_04: That's what it was.
- 19:34SPEAKER_04: Uh no, the girl that won, one of the there was really wasn't a winner.
- 19:38SPEAKER_01: They did like three or four, whatever.
- 19:40SPEAKER_04: They couldn't choose.
- 19:41SPEAKER_04: Uh, the girl that won wore this sexy outfit from a video game character, which I was like, good for her, she looks great.
- 19:51SPEAKER_04: But then you kind of ruined it for me by telling me that it was a fake body.
- 19:56SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like the boobs, I only associate them with people that do drag because that is where I've seen them.
- 20:03SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 20:03SPEAKER_01: But they're like a full chest piece with like a it's like a silicone neckline with fake boobs on it.
- 20:10SPEAKER_04: So it's like that sumo wrestler type of costume where it's like a costume that just fits over your whole body, but then you're saying that it's shaped as a it doesn't fit over your whole body, it like literally just goes on like your chest.
- 20:23SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
- 20:23SPEAKER_01: And it's just like fake boobs.
- 20:24SPEAKER_01: Because like you like her stomach was showing too, and that was her stomach.
- 20:28SPEAKER_01: It's just like a breast piece.
- 20:32SPEAKER_04: Well, I didn't look.
- 20:33SPEAKER_01: I'm sorry you thought her boobs were real.
- 20:35SPEAKER_04: Uh-uh.
- 20:36SPEAKER_04: They weren't good for her and good for her doctor, is what I thought, but maybe not.
- 20:40SPEAKER_01: No, not a doctor.
- 20:41SPEAKER_04: Not a doctor.
- 20:42SPEAKER_04: But uh Lisa's band was great.
- 20:44SPEAKER_04: She sounded like a I I compare her to like what Gwen Stefani sounded like in no doubt back in like the late 90s.
- 20:53SPEAKER_04: She definitely gave those types of like no doubt vibe sounding vibes, but the but honestly, I it was it was it was more enjoyable for me.
- 21:03SPEAKER_04: I tried to take video of her and the audio came out so poorly on my phone.
- 21:08SPEAKER_04: She sounded so good live.
- 21:11SPEAKER_04: I I knew she was a good singer, but I don't think she was that great of a singer and she was like, Yeah, she was great.
- 21:15SPEAKER_04: And the band too, the band rocked out, and they dressed up as Nightman Cometh.
- 21:19SPEAKER_04: That was awesome.
- 21:20SPEAKER_01: That was really good.
- 21:20SPEAKER_04: That was a lot of fun.
- 21:21SPEAKER_01: I didn't expect it to be a medley though.
- 21:23SPEAKER_01: I guess maybe I that message was lost on me, but I liked it.
- 21:26SPEAKER_01: It just wasn't what I expected.
- 21:28SPEAKER_01: Like how they I thought they were gonna play like the different songs from the Nightman Cometh, not blend it all into one song.
- 21:37SPEAKER_04: I think they made it to three songs at least.
- 21:39SPEAKER_04: Huh?
- 21:39SPEAKER_04: I think they turned it into two songs.
- 21:41SPEAKER_01: No.
- 21:42SPEAKER_04: Really?
- 21:42SPEAKER_01: They just played like one long song that blended them all together.
- 21:46SPEAKER_04: Oh maybe I wasn't paying attention then.
- 21:48SPEAKER_04: Great.
- 21:48SPEAKER_04: I was too busy rocking out.
- 21:50SPEAKER_01: But point is, it was really good.
- 21:51SPEAKER_01: And I think she said what their guitarist is the one who put together the song.
- 21:55SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 21:56SPEAKER_01: It was awesome.
- 21:57SPEAKER_04: And Eric Gladstone was there, who is basically the podcast.
- 22:00SPEAKER_04: Punk rock guru when it comes to that type of music.
- 22:04SPEAKER_04: And it's it's basically like if you go to a diner in the middle of nowhere with Guy Fieri, that's exactly what this is like.
- 22:14SPEAKER_04: Sexy Guy Fieri.
- 22:15SPEAKER_04: Sexy Guy Fieri.
- 22:16SPEAKER_04: Going to this punk rock museum with Eric Gladstone is the equivalent of that.
- 22:20SPEAKER_04: And he he approved.
- 22:22SPEAKER_04: He gave thumbs up.
- 22:23SPEAKER_04: And he's he's tough to please.
- 22:24SPEAKER_01: I know he was posting about it too.
- 22:26SPEAKER_04: Yeah, he so if if if you got the stamp of approval from Eric Gladstone, you know you're headed in the right direction.
- 22:32SPEAKER_04: But that's not all that happened this weekend.
- 22:34SPEAKER_04: Is Roastal Mania happened as well on Halloween, and our girl Haley Brooks took on the belts.
- 22:42SPEAKER_01: Both belts?
- 22:43SPEAKER_04: Both belts.
- 22:44SPEAKER_04: I didn't see her roast, unfortunately.
- 22:47SPEAKER_04: They played it on Instagram Live.
- 22:49SPEAKER_04: So I saw some people's roasts.
- 22:51SPEAKER_04: I saw the palsy versus palsy match, which was it was a choice to start with the episode.
- 22:59SPEAKER_04: It was uh purposely uncomfortable at times because you have two people with you know these.
- 23:05SPEAKER_01: What are you gonna like when two disabled people are making fun of each other?
- 23:09SPEAKER_01: I think any fully like full body abled person is gonna be uncomfortable.
- 23:14SPEAKER_04: But it was fun.
- 23:16SPEAKER_04: They put on a great show.
- 23:17SPEAKER_04: They had some pretty good judges too.
- 23:19SPEAKER_04: I don't know the person's name, but there's this person who is they're kind of a social media figure.
- 23:26SPEAKER_04: I've seen them on social media a lot, and it's I think it's a girl.
- 23:30SPEAKER_04: It's it's she is short and uh older, spiky hair, always wears a suit, kind of dresses like Pee Wee Herman, but a shorter version.
- 23:39SPEAKER_04: And she was one of the judges there.
- 23:41SPEAKER_04: Go ahead, look it up.
- 23:42SPEAKER_04: You'll you'll see what I'm talking about.
- 23:44SPEAKER_01: But either way, I'd have to say your your words were an interesting choice.
- 23:47SPEAKER_04: I'm doing the best I can to be.
- 23:49SPEAKER_01: I think it's a girl.
- 23:53SPEAKER_04: After this episode, you'll play it and you'll see.
- 23:55SPEAKER_04: But no, they did a great job.
- 23:57SPEAKER_04: Um, it was fun.
- 23:58SPEAKER_04: I'm glad I was, even though I wasn't able to be there, I'm glad I was able to watch it on Instagram.
- 24:03SPEAKER_04: And uh from what I heard, they had a great turnout.
- 24:06SPEAKER_04: Uh even with it being on Halloween, which is always a challenge.
- 24:09SPEAKER_04: But it was fun.
- 24:11SPEAKER_04: We should we should do the next row.
- 24:13SPEAKER_04: We should be in the next roasts.
- 24:14SPEAKER_01: What if we just host it here on the stage?
- 24:18SPEAKER_04: That's not a bad idea.
- 24:19SPEAKER_01: You'd have to get like a platform, maybe.
- 24:21SPEAKER_01: But I think so.
- 24:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we could try.
- 24:23SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 24:24SPEAKER_04: No, that sounds like a whole thing then.
- 24:25SPEAKER_01: But I don't think we're I think we're funny, but I think you and me are situationally funny.
- 24:29SPEAKER_01: Like, I think we know how to riff off of one another.
- 24:31SPEAKER_01: I don't know that we are good enough at comedy to like write competition-winning roasts.
- 24:39SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I'm not good at setup.
- 24:41SPEAKER_04: Like, I can't really set up a joke and then nail the punchline.
- 24:45SPEAKER_04: I I always kind of fall off or stagger somewhere and it messes up the whole thing.
- 24:50SPEAKER_01: I think that sometimes what I think is funny is actually just mean.
- 24:55SPEAKER_01: Like, people maybe wouldn't like get that I'm like kidding.
- 24:59SPEAKER_01: You know?
- 25:00SPEAKER_04: Are you mean?
- 25:02SPEAKER_01: You tell me.
- 25:03SPEAKER_04: I'm too afraid to answer that, honestly.
- 25:05SPEAKER_04: So let's move on to the next one.
- 25:08SPEAKER_04: But I'd actually I do want to take a minute to acknowledge some sad news that happened this past weekend uh for the local community.
- 25:16SPEAKER_04: Carmine Vento, the founder of Villa Pizza and Carmine's Pizza Kitchen, passed away Friday at 78.
- 25:25SPEAKER_04: For those of you that aren't familiar, Carmine's Pizza Kitchen is honestly one of the most popular pizza spots here in Vegas.
- 25:34SPEAKER_04: They have a handful of locations.
- 25:35SPEAKER_04: They're opening up a brand new one on Rainbow.
- 25:38SPEAKER_04: The reason I knew about Carmines is there's this pizza fest that happens every year down kind of in the industrial side of town.
- 25:48SPEAKER_04: And we, for VegasLocal.com, I put on this tournament of you know the top 20 pizzas that I had at the Pizza Fest.
- 25:58SPEAKER_04: And we had every day there was you know next round and the next round, kind of like a March Madness tournament.
- 26:03SPEAKER_04: And Carmines won.
- 26:05SPEAKER_04: And I remember their pizza, their pizza was phenomenal.
- 26:07SPEAKER_04: And I never heard about Carmines before the Pizza Fest.
- 26:10SPEAKER_04: So I'm glad to, you know, I'm I was glad to try it.
- 26:13SPEAKER_04: And then to see the the cult-like following that they have.
- 26:17SPEAKER_04: Um, people were so amped and so excited for CarMines to win.
- 26:21SPEAKER_04: And so now, now that I I knew about it, I learned a little bit more about what Carmines is all about.
- 26:25SPEAKER_04: And we even had Frank Vento, uh Carmine's son, and uh one of the owners on the show last year.
- 26:33SPEAKER_04: Um and it was a really cool experience to sit down with Frank.
- 26:38SPEAKER_04: He's very well spoken, he has an incredible history, and he opened up a lot about uh growing up with his dad.
- 26:47SPEAKER_04: And I wanted to share some highlights of that episode with Frank talking about his dad here.
- 26:54SPEAKER_00: I distinctly remember living in a house and waiting for my dad to get off of work, and we didn't have furniture, and we I would sit in the living with my mom, my mom would sit by the window, we'd wait for my dad to get off work because he would bring home pizza.
- 27:08SPEAKER_00: I just turned 18, I just graduated Valley High School in 1990, and uh a month later I was in New York City.
- 27:14SPEAKER_00: That was what he was fighting for, that was what he was working for, is to give his kids a better opportunity to go and figure it out and do whatever you wanted, you know.
- 27:21SPEAKER_00: So then I came home and uh I told my dad, I said, uh, you know, I want to go in business with you.
- 27:27SPEAKER_00: And he looked me in the eye and he said, I'll give you an out.
- 27:30SPEAKER_00: He says, I'll pay for wherever you want to go, wherever you want to do, don't do this.
- 27:35SPEAKER_00: Because it's not easy getting up every day and and owning your own small business and being there every day.
- 27:43SPEAKER_00: My father, my uncle John, my cousin Rick, my cousin Frankie, my uncle Sal, they started that because when you walked up to those pizzarias, they were there.
- 27:54SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 27:55SPEAKER_00: And they were the ones saying hello to you, and they were the ones coming out to the tables and making sure you were okay and making sure you brought your kids in, you know.
- 28:03SPEAKER_00: And my dad was Uncle Carmine for so long to a lot of people.
- 28:08SPEAKER_00: You, if you ask around, he's Uncle Carmine.
- 28:12SPEAKER_00: That impact that he had on the community is why I keep doing it today.
- 28:17SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that was that was a a great way to kind of describe what Carmine was to the Vegas community.
- 28:24SPEAKER_04: And the way he described, the way Frank described Carmine, I see that same description with other local business owners that we've had on the show, like um uh TSP Baker, Carrie from TSP Bakery.
- 28:38SPEAKER_04: A lot of people speak about her the same way that Frank did.
- 28:41SPEAKER_04: Uh uh Cam and John from Cornish Pasty, same thing.
- 28:45SPEAKER_04: Like people speak so highly in the way that he described his dad, I I see that in all these other local business owners too.
- 28:52SPEAKER_04: Um, so I I I can see the significance that Carmine had on this Vegas community with Villa Pizza and with Carmine's Pizza.
- 29:02SPEAKER_04: So I'm glad we got to sit down with Frank and share that story.
- 29:05SPEAKER_04: But to Frank and the entire Vento family and every everybody at Carmine's uh was so sorry for the loss and he was so thankful to be able to share some of his dad's story like that with us.
- 29:17SPEAKER_04: So I thought that was nice.
- 29:19SPEAKER_04: Let's take a quick break and we'll be right back after these words.

- 30:30SPEAKER_04: SEMA.
- 30:31SPEAKER_04: Do you know what SEMA stands for?
- 30:33SPEAKER_01: It has nothing to do with like the word car.
- 30:36SPEAKER_01: I know that.
- 30:37SPEAKER_01: I forgot exactly what it stands for.
- 30:39SPEAKER_01: What is it?
- 30:40SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
- 30:40SPEAKER_04: I was hoping you would know.
- 30:41SPEAKER_01: Hold on.
- 30:42SPEAKER_01: I'll tell you really quick.
- 30:43SPEAKER_01: What does SEMA stand for?
- 30:46SPEAKER_01: Specialty Equipment Market Association.
- 30:49SPEAKER_01: That's what I thought.
- 30:50SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 30:50SPEAKER_01: Because if I read that, I would have zero idea that it has anything to do with cars.
- 30:59SPEAKER_04: Well, for anybody that is from out of Vegas, and you know, maybe they're not a big of a car fanatic as most, but it's one of the biggest conventions here in town.
- 31:07SPEAKER_04: I got 150,000 attendees, 70,000 buyers, visitors from 140 countries.
- 31:12SPEAKER_04: I mean, this place, this show is one of the last big shows in Vegas of the year, for sure.
- 31:18SPEAKER_04: Um, and it's basically it's basically getting into new types of cars or new like accessories going into cars, or do you know what it specifically it covers?
- 31:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so I mean, it's it's like a trade show, right?
- 31:33SPEAKER_01: So you've got people there showing off, um, I don't know, like whatever their newest manufacturing thing is, or or their newer vehicles, or yeah, like there's a bunch of specialty vehicles every year too that people look forward to, I guess.
- 31:51SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 31:52SPEAKER_04: It's basically like what CES is for technology, CEMA is for the auto auto world.
- 31:58SPEAKER_04: Clearly, you and I don't know enough about the show, but we know just enough to get by.
- 32:03SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 32:03SPEAKER_01: And there, here's what I do know about it.
- 32:05SPEAKER_01: Tell me what you know, Julie.
- 32:07SPEAKER_01: Is that there is some light controversy around different parts of it.
- 32:11SPEAKER_04: We like controversy.
- 32:12SPEAKER_01: So one that I didn't write in here and I forgot to tell you about in the first place.
- 32:17SPEAKER_01: A little bit.
- 32:18SPEAKER_01: Um, but there was like some AI drama this year.
- 32:22SPEAKER_04: AI drama.
- 32:22SPEAKER_01: Nothing like insane, insane.
- 32:24SPEAKER_01: I forgot what company it is, should have put it in our notes.
- 32:28SPEAKER_04: What happens when you go off the cuff, Jim?
- 32:30SPEAKER_04: But I didn't put it in the notes.
- 32:32SPEAKER_01: But one of the car companies put out this preview of some super cool new car that was gonna be there, right?
- 32:42SPEAKER_01: And I guess the car was moving or rotating in it, and it glitched a little bit, and something looked like misshapen, and people were like, that's AI.
- 32:51SPEAKER_01: Your car is not real.
- 32:52SPEAKER_04: Oh, they showed a video of the car.
- 32:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like they were previewing what they're gonna bring to SEMA.
- 32:57SPEAKER_04: Ooh.
- 32:58SPEAKER_01: And people were like, that's AI.
- 33:01SPEAKER_01: This isn't real.
- 33:02SPEAKER_01: It obviously doesn't work the way you're saying it's gonna work.
- 33:05SPEAKER_01: And they had to come out and say, like, no, like the car is real.
- 33:08SPEAKER_01: We did use some AI techniques in the editing of the video.
- 33:13SPEAKER_04: Don't you know people are gonna nitpick and focus on every frame that they see to see if there's something that glitches out and shows that it's not real?
- 33:22SPEAKER_04: All you have to do is say this preview was made with AI, and people won't make make a big old fuss about it.
- 33:27SPEAKER_04: But it won't get as much traction, obviously, if they say that it this preview was made with AI.
- 33:33SPEAKER_01: Right, but it is just kind of they could even say like cars real, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, edited with AI.
- 33:40SPEAKER_01: You know?
- 33:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 33:42SPEAKER_01: Because that I mean, so many people use it nowadays, especially big companies like that.
- 33:45SPEAKER_01: But you move.
- 33:47SPEAKER_01: That was one of the controversial things.
- 33:49SPEAKER_01: The other one is a lot of like the more like old school kind of car people are not all happy with the direction that SEMA's going because they're like opening it up to the public on Fridays now.
- 34:03SPEAKER_01: I don't know if they've done that in previous years, but I know they didn't always do that.
- 34:07SPEAKER_01: And they also have like the SEMA Fest now, which is a music festival associated with it.
- 34:15SPEAKER_01: And a lot of people are like, oh, they're bringing in like influencer culture to this, and it's no longer about the cars, it's no longer a trade and manufacturing show, it's become something totally different.
- 34:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 34:27SPEAKER_01: And a lot of people don't like that.
- 34:29SPEAKER_01: I, as somebody who doesn't care about cars, like that is a way to get me to engage with it.
- 34:35SPEAKER_01: That's fair.
- 34:37SPEAKER_01: But I could also understand that if it was something that I was really passionate about, and now all these other people are buying up the tickets because they want to go to something else, like a different part of it, then I could see the frustration there.
- 34:48SPEAKER_04: No, I get that.
- 34:49SPEAKER_04: And I honestly, it's that's a common issue with a lot of things.
- 34:54SPEAKER_04: I wouldn't necessarily say it's just the SEMA thing, but a lot of old heads are upset that times are changing, and what worked before doesn't necessarily work anymore.
- 35:04SPEAKER_04: And so I feel like to get the younger demographic, you have to have more things that are you know engaging to them, whether it's music, whether it's social media, whatever it is.
- 35:15SPEAKER_01: Do you just do you think that cars are not engaging for younger people?
- 35:19SPEAKER_04: I think I think they are, but I don't know if the old way would have kept their attention or gotten their attention enough to encourage them to spend money to come out to Vegas and go to this show and go and you know take part of this convention.
- 35:36SPEAKER_04: You see these the the amount of conventions in Vegas are decreasing, they're not increasing.
- 35:41SPEAKER_04: So we need to figure out more ways to get people to come to the Vegas.
- 35:44SPEAKER_04: If it's the same thing year after year, I wouldn't go to SEMA if it was the same exact show from last year to this year, right?
- 35:51SPEAKER_04: Um, so by including something like SEMA Fest, which has bands like 311, Jimmy World Offspring.
- 36:00SPEAKER_04: Um, that would at least get my attention.
- 36:03SPEAKER_04: Maybe, maybe the offspring gets my attention and and like I'll go see cars before.
- 36:08SPEAKER_04: What's that?
- 36:10SPEAKER_01: Oh my god.
- 36:11SPEAKER_04: Let it out, girl.
- 36:12SPEAKER_04: Sorry.
- 36:12SPEAKER_01: Well, I was trying to like clear my throat quietly, but then I couldn't speak.
- 36:15SPEAKER_04: You did a horrible job at that point.
- 36:17SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 36:17SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 36:17SPEAKER_01: I well, I tried my best.
- 36:19SPEAKER_04: Um that's all I asked for.
- 36:20SPEAKER_01: But you said like you were like, oh, maybe the offspring would get my attention, but then like you'd be like, oh, and I can go check out the show before the fest.
- 36:28SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
- 36:29SPEAKER_04: Listen, I've I've been to a handful of these shows.
- 36:31SPEAKER_04: Uh I haven't been to CEMA, but I've been to like DesignerCon, I've been to ComplexCon, I've been to CES.
- 36:37SPEAKER_04: They're fun.
- 36:39SPEAKER_04: But if it's the same thing year after year, I probably wouldn't spend the money to go back, even if I lived here.
- 36:44SPEAKER_04: I don't know if I would spend the money for a ticket to go check out these shows year after year if they weren't changing, if they weren't trying to improve and uh evolve over time.
- 36:57SPEAKER_04: So I get it.
- 36:58SPEAKER_04: People are upset that you know things change, but unfortunately that's everything in life, and that's going to continue to happen with everything that's good in life.
- 37:07SPEAKER_01: You know what you can go to year after year though without buying the ticket?
- 37:11SPEAKER_04: Please tell me, I'm dying to know.
- 37:12SPEAKER_01: Um, is the SEMA cruise.
- 37:17SPEAKER_01: So I guess I think it's on Friday.
- 37:20SPEAKER_01: I think.
- 37:21SPEAKER_01: On Friday, like after SEMA closes down and like I guess they're getting ready for the fest or whatever, you can line up on um convention center drive.
- 37:31SPEAKER_01: Like people just go out and stand out there and they drive all the cars out.
- 37:34SPEAKER_01: Oh, really?
- 37:35SPEAKER_01: So you can go and you can look at them.
- 37:36SPEAKER_01: It's like a parade.
- 37:37SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 37:37SPEAKER_01: You don't have to walk around the convention center, you don't have to buy the ticket.
- 37:41SPEAKER_01: I mean, you can't interact or ask questions or read about it, but you can at least see the cars.
- 37:44SPEAKER_04: Oh, that's cool.
- 37:45SPEAKER_01: And that's free and open to the public.
- 37:47SPEAKER_04: People will complain about everything.
- 37:49SPEAKER_04: People complain about anything.
- 37:50SPEAKER_04: Anything that's free and they're doing something for the public, people will complain about it.
- 37:54SPEAKER_04: But I think that's pretty cool.
- 37:54SPEAKER_01: I think it's awesome.
- 37:55SPEAKER_01: I don't know anyone complaining about the cruise.
- 37:57SPEAKER_04: Why is it called a cruise?
- 37:58SPEAKER_01: Because they're cruising.
- 38:00SPEAKER_04: Oh, I thought it was like driving a car.
- 38:02SPEAKER_04: I thought it was boat related.
- 38:04SPEAKER_01: No.
- 38:05SPEAKER_01: No, it's like we're gonna go cruise in the car.
- 38:08SPEAKER_04: Okay, well, you can't call something SEMA Cruise and not expect me to think of a boat.
- 38:12SPEAKER_04: Like Carnival Cruise, Disney cruise.
- 38:15SPEAKER_01: Dude, Sima Cruise.
- 38:17SPEAKER_01: It's a car convention and cruise.
- 38:22SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
- 38:23SPEAKER_04: I don't want to talk about the same way.
- 38:24SPEAKER_01: Whatever.
- 38:25SPEAKER_01: Moving on.
- 38:27SPEAKER_04: Did you see those uh Vegas Golden Knights come out with the hometown remix jerseys?
- 38:31SPEAKER_01: I did see that.
- 38:32SPEAKER_01: And like everybody, like all the big names are like in the ads for it or whatever.
- 38:37SPEAKER_01: Like Wayne Newton, Holly Madison, Piff, Matt Franco.
- 38:41SPEAKER_04: Yep, Matt Franco.
- 38:43SPEAKER_04: I love every now and then when I'm just like bored, I'll go to my Instagram profile and I'll watch that Piff video of him trash talking on Matt Franco.
- 38:51SPEAKER_01: Matt Franco's a terrible person.
- 38:55SPEAKER_04: It was so good.
- 38:56SPEAKER_04: He he he got me in the first half.
- 38:58SPEAKER_04: And then once I realized he was bullshitting, I was like, okay, this is.
- 39:01SPEAKER_01: And I really did think that he was telling the truth up until he said that Matt Franco like pushed a kid into an electrically charged pond.
- 39:13SPEAKER_04: No, but that was pretty cool.
- 39:14SPEAKER_04: They had uh Matt Franco, like you said, Matt Franco, Piff, Holly Madison, Wayne Newton.
- 39:18SPEAKER_04: How do we get Wayne Newton on this show?
- 39:20SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 39:21SPEAKER_04: We've had Piff on the show.
- 39:23SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
- 39:24SPEAKER_04: We've had uh was there anybody else in the video that we have had on?
- 39:28SPEAKER_04: I guess not.
- 39:29SPEAKER_01: Not in the video.
- 39:30SPEAKER_01: We've talked about Melbourne, but um Melody Suites knows Wayne Newton.
- 39:35SPEAKER_04: Melody.
- 39:37SPEAKER_04: Hook it up.
- 39:37SPEAKER_04: Shout out Melody.
- 39:38SPEAKER_04: Shout out Melody Suites.
- 39:40SPEAKER_04: But no, these jerseys though, the remix jerseys, I'm digging those.
- 39:43SPEAKER_04: It's like that teal, they got a little roulette wheel kind of type of design too.
- 39:49SPEAKER_04: Do you think they kind of resemble the PWHL jerseys a little bit or not too much?
- 39:56SPEAKER_01: No.
- 39:57SPEAKER_04: What do you mean no?
- 39:58SPEAKER_04: I think they kind of do.
- 39:58SPEAKER_04: They got that teal green bluish color.
- 40:01SPEAKER_01: Dude, they're very different greens.
- 40:03SPEAKER_04: Pull up the PWHL jerseys, first of all.
- 40:05SPEAKER_04: PWHL Vegas jerseys.
- 40:10SPEAKER_01: Very different greens.
- 40:11SPEAKER_04: Uh okay, yeah, maybe you're right.
- 40:14SPEAKER_01: You better, in this episode, you better edit the jerseys right next to each other.
- 40:19SPEAKER_04: Listen, I thought there was, I thought the green was more, it was closer to the PWHL green.
- 40:24SPEAKER_01: Absolutely not.
- 40:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah, clearly not.
- 40:25SPEAKER_01: Absolutely not.
- 40:26SPEAKER_01: But what I do like that in the jerseys, because I wouldn't have realized it, because I have terrible eyesight, um, until I read a comment that made me want to zoom in.
- 40:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 40:35SPEAKER_01: Is they've got like the patterns of the like spades and the hearts, whatever you call those, like the card suits.
- 40:45SPEAKER_04: Where?
- 40:46SPEAKER_01: It says that they're in the um like the pattern around the Vegas thing.
- 40:51SPEAKER_04: I see the stars.
- 40:54SPEAKER_04: I don't know if I see, maybe I have to look at a higher definition version of it, but I don't see the hearts and clubs.
- 41:00SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 41:00SPEAKER_01: Maybe I'm tripping, but that's what the comment said, and like I said, I have bad eyesight, so I'm doing my best.
- 41:06SPEAKER_01: But um yeah, I like them.
- 41:08SPEAKER_01: I do, they're my favorite.
- 41:11SPEAKER_02: Why?
- 41:12SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 41:13SPEAKER_01: I just I feel like like I like all the elements of it.
- 41:16SPEAKER_01: I don't know if I love that they're just like stripes on the sleeves.
- 41:19SPEAKER_04: Like I think that they're not just stripes, they're the roulette wheel colors.
- 41:23SPEAKER_01: No, okay.
- 41:24SPEAKER_01: I understand that.
- 41:25SPEAKER_01: I just wish that maybe it would have been like a different overall shape, if that makes sense.
- 41:31SPEAKER_04: You know what you sound like?
- 41:32SPEAKER_04: You sound like one of those old heads that hate change.
- 41:35SPEAKER_04: Oh, I hate the fact that they remixed these jerseys and made a slight change.
- 41:39SPEAKER_04: I don't like the way it looks now.
- 41:41SPEAKER_01: No, dude, I like the concept.
- 41:42SPEAKER_01: I like the the Vegas casino themed jersey.
- 41:47SPEAKER_01: I just wish wish that there would have been some things that are a little bit different about it.
- 41:53SPEAKER_01: That's all.
- 41:54SPEAKER_04: Did you just call me dude, by the way?
- 41:55SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 41:57SPEAKER_04: Oh, dude.
- 41:59SPEAKER_01: Dude, did you see at the very bottom that there's the roulette wheel too?
- 42:02SPEAKER_01: What is it?
- 42:03SPEAKER_01: The inside of the jersey?
- 42:04SPEAKER_04: Yes, it looks pretty cool.
- 42:05SPEAKER_01: Comb.
- 42:05SPEAKER_04: It's a sick jersey.
- 42:06SPEAKER_04: I'm I'm gonna get a jersey for myself, and I'm always gonna get one for the team, but now I'm gonna get one for everybody but you.
- 42:12SPEAKER_01: It's rude.
- 42:13unknown: Wow.
- 42:13SPEAKER_01: Did you notice I'm wearing the shirt you got me today?
- 42:15SPEAKER_04: I did.
- 42:16SPEAKER_04: Looks good.
- 42:16SPEAKER_01: Didn't say anything about it.
- 42:18SPEAKER_04: That's not the first time you've worn it, though.
- 42:20SPEAKER_01: First time I've worn it to work.
- 42:21SPEAKER_04: That's not true.
- 42:22SPEAKER_01: Pretty sure it's true.
- 42:24SPEAKER_04: You got the shirt at the car show at the uh South.
- 42:28SPEAKER_04: At SEMA.
- 42:29SPEAKER_04: That's it.
- 42:29SPEAKER_04: At SEMA Fest.
- 42:30SPEAKER_01: No, you got me this shirt at the at the racetrack because I couldn't go.
- 42:35SPEAKER_04: I know, that was a bummer.
- 42:36SPEAKER_04: Where you you set it all up.
- 42:37SPEAKER_04: You got us all set up and then you couldn't go.
- 42:39SPEAKER_01: That's what happens.
- 42:40SPEAKER_04: That's what happens.
- 42:41SPEAKER_04: But uh speaking of PWHL, did they it's a women's professional hockey league, did they ever come out with a name?
- 42:49SPEAKER_01: No, not yet.
- 42:50SPEAKER_01: I mean, let me double check, make sure it didn't.
- 42:51SPEAKER_01: They're like months away.
- 42:53SPEAKER_04: They're like a month away from I think uh from the start of the season, right?
- 43:00SPEAKER_01: No.
- 43:00SPEAKER_01: Or yes, yes, but they did not come out with a name.
- 43:03SPEAKER_01: Sorry.
- 43:04SPEAKER_01: Sorry, I was double checking.
- 43:06SPEAKER_01: No name yet.
- 43:07SPEAKER_04: Um what did you say that you thought the team name was gonna be?
- 43:12SPEAKER_04: Mirage and I was Oasis?
- 43:14SPEAKER_04: No.
- 43:16SPEAKER_01: No, no, no.
- 43:18SPEAKER_01: I said I think it'll be the Vegas Oasis.
- 43:20SPEAKER_04: What did I say?
- 43:21SPEAKER_04: Mirage?
- 43:21SPEAKER_04: The Mirage.
- 43:22SPEAKER_04: I think I still think it's gonna be the Mirage.
- 43:24SPEAKER_01: What did uh Armani say?
- 43:26SPEAKER_01: The Queens.
- 43:27SPEAKER_04: The Queens, yeah, I don't know.
- 43:28SPEAKER_01: And I was like, Armani, I don't like that.
- 43:30SPEAKER_04: Armani, just stop.
- 43:31SPEAKER_04: But um somebody did a deep dive into domain names that were purchased uh on GoDaddy.
- 43:40SPEAKER_04: And they because there were a couple of teams that's I think there are a couple of teams that don't have names just yet, but the Las Vegas definitely doesn't.
- 43:48SPEAKER_04: And two uh two domains that were acquired were PWHL, Las Vegas Strikers or Rattlers.
- 44:04SPEAKER_04: How do you feel about that?
- 44:05SPEAKER_04: If it is rattlers or strikers.
- 44:08SPEAKER_04: I don't like either one.
- 44:09SPEAKER_01: I don't like either one.
- 44:10SPEAKER_01: I would rather it be the rattler, though.
- 44:12SPEAKER_04: Why?
- 44:12SPEAKER_04: Because of the snake?
- 44:14SPEAKER_04: I'm a snake.
- 44:15SPEAKER_01: I'm a snake snake.
- 44:20SPEAKER_04: I'm a snake.
- 44:22SPEAKER_01: Are we stimming?
- 44:23SPEAKER_04: I think we just stimmed.
- 44:24SPEAKER_04: I think we just stimmed, but I'm a snake snake.
- 44:28SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 44:28SPEAKER_04: Yes.
- 44:29SPEAKER_01: Okay, and that's how you know that we're at least kind of in the same age group.
- 44:33SPEAKER_04: We definitely are in the same age group.
- 44:34SPEAKER_04: When you're filling out a warranty card or something like that, we're in the street.
- 44:37SPEAKER_04: It's still different.
- 44:38SPEAKER_01: We've been over this.
- 44:39SPEAKER_01: You click 40 plus.
- 44:42SPEAKER_04: It's usually like 28 to how old are you?
- 44:45SPEAKER_01: 27.
- 44:45SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's usually like 27 to 42.
- 44:48SPEAKER_04: We're in the same age group.
- 44:50SPEAKER_01: I've never seen any sheet that says 27 to 42.
- 44:54SPEAKER_04: You need to do your research.
- 44:56SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 44:57SPEAKER_04: Well, either way, I still think it should be Vegas.
- 45:01SPEAKER_04: Not even Las Vegas.
- 45:01SPEAKER_04: It should be Vegas Mirage.
- 45:04SPEAKER_01: Well, yeah, and I mean that's what Dominique said too, right?
- 45:06SPEAKER_01: She said they're just gonna go with Vegas because people that live here don't usually say the lost part.
- 45:12SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 45:12SPEAKER_01: So hopefully they do just go with that.
- 45:15SPEAKER_01: Um wow, the comments on this Reddit post are hilarious.
- 45:19SPEAKER_01: The top one, or the very first one, says, I am whelmed.
- 45:25SPEAKER_04: Not overwhelmed, not underwhelmed, just whelmed.
- 45:28SPEAKER_01: That is hilarious.
- 45:30SPEAKER_01: Um, but yeah, I don't know.
- 45:32SPEAKER_01: I we'll see.
- 45:34SPEAKER_01: I hope they go with something else, but if it's between those two, I would prefer it's the rattlers.
- 45:39SPEAKER_04: We need to get uh somebody on the team on the show.
- 45:42SPEAKER_01: We will.
- 45:42SPEAKER_01: I'll email Dominique today, see what we can do.
- 45:45SPEAKER_04: Get get uh get a player on, maybe two, and then see if she knows Wayne Newton.
- 45:52SPEAKER_01: I know you've only been here for a couple months, but do you know Mr.
- 45:55SPEAKER_04: Newton?
- 45:56SPEAKER_04: Do you know Mr.
- 45:56SPEAKER_04: Docker Shane?
- 45:58SPEAKER_04: That would be incredible.
- 45:59SPEAKER_04: If we had Wayne Newton on, that would be I think that would be my Vegas royalty.
- 46:04SPEAKER_04: Him and Steve Wynne would be my Vegas royalty.
- 46:06SPEAKER_01: I think a lot of people would say that they are the Vegas royalty.
- 46:10SPEAKER_04: Who?
- 46:12SPEAKER_01: Steve Wynne and Wayne Newton.
- 46:14SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 46:14SPEAKER_04: Oh, so you're agreeing with me.
- 46:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm saying I think a lot of people would say.
- 46:21SPEAKER_01: No, I'm agree, I'm agreeing with you.
- 46:23SPEAKER_01: I think them and like potentially the Oscar Goodman.
- 46:28SPEAKER_01: Like a lot of people would be like, those three are Vegas royalty.
- 46:31SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 46:32SPEAKER_01: That's fair.
- 46:33SPEAKER_04: I I I agree with you.
- 46:35SPEAKER_01: Great.
- 46:35SPEAKER_04: Great.
- 46:35SPEAKER_04: I'm glad we have this comment.
- 46:37SPEAKER_01: Great.
- 46:38SPEAKER_04: Julie, why don't you tell us what's coming up here in Vegas too?
- 46:40SPEAKER_04: Because we have something coming up next week that I think pretty exciting.
- 46:43SPEAKER_04: This week, actually.
- 46:44SPEAKER_01: So when it comes to seasons, I am like a fall girl, right?
- 46:50SPEAKER_01: I love a good autumn.
- 46:51SPEAKER_04: But you're a big pumpkin spice latte, PSL.
- 46:54SPEAKER_01: No.
- 46:55SPEAKER_01: I'm more like Halloween.
- 46:58SPEAKER_04: If they made a PSL ghost energy drink, would you drink it?
- 47:02SPEAKER_01: I'd try it.
- 47:03SPEAKER_04: You'd love it.
- 47:04SPEAKER_04: You'd love you love all ghost energy drinks.
- 47:06SPEAKER_01: You love that shit.
- 47:07SPEAKER_01: You love that shit.
- 47:08SPEAKER_01: You love it.
- 47:09SPEAKER_04: You're gonna taste it and you're gonna like it.
- 47:10SPEAKER_01: I would try it.
- 47:11SPEAKER_01: I don't know if I'd keep drinking it, but moving on.
- 47:15SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 47:16SPEAKER_01: But like winter time in Vegas, I think might be one of my favorite times because rodeo season hits like very hard.
- 47:25SPEAKER_01: From PBR to NFR, it's it's so fun for me, right?
- 47:29SPEAKER_01: Because I'm from a state where rodeo and like cowboy culture is a huge thing.
- 47:34SPEAKER_01: I did not know that that was a part of Vegas until my first winter here, which was last year, and I was floored by it.
- 47:41SPEAKER_01: It takes over the whole city for like a month and a half.
- 47:46SPEAKER_01: But point is this week, what is it, November 6th through 8th, PBR is in town.
- 47:52SPEAKER_04: And professional bull riders.
- 47:55SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 47:55SPEAKER_01: And I feel like even people who don't love rodeo, everybody cares about the bull riding part, right?
- 48:04SPEAKER_01: Like you go to the rodeo, you're not gonna miss the bull riders.
- 48:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah, maybe you'll skip like some of the other stuff, like the roping, like not everybody is into that, but everyone wants to watch the bull riders.
- 48:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and it's super exciting.
- 48:16SPEAKER_01: So this is the the teams championship, which I think they're doing a little bit differently this year.
- 48:22SPEAKER_01: I don't totally understand the new structure, but um, it's like the bottom seven teams, there's ten teams.
- 48:29SPEAKER_01: The bottom seven are gonna compete, and three will move on from that bottom seven to compete against the top three who get a buy on Friday and don't start competing until Saturday.
- 48:39SPEAKER_04: What do you win?
- 48:40SPEAKER_04: A golden cowboy hat or something like that?
- 48:41SPEAKER_01: I literally have no idea.
- 48:42SPEAKER_01: I'd assume money.
- 48:43SPEAKER_01: There's so much money in rodeo.
- 48:46SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 48:46SPEAKER_01: If you look at the prize winnings, at least from NFR, which is the one coming up in December, the National Finals rodeo.
- 48:54SPEAKER_01: So much.
- 48:55SPEAKER_01: It's insane.
- 48:56SPEAKER_01: Now, I guess if you think about like the people that are into rodeo, they're usually like very wealthy, like oil barons, people that own a lot of land type stuff.
- 49:06SPEAKER_03: I've seen Landman.
- 49:07SPEAKER_01: I don't know what that is.
- 49:09SPEAKER_01: Um I don't know what you're saying.
- 49:14SPEAKER_01: Um, but no, yeah, it's it's really exciting.
- 49:16SPEAKER_01: I mean, PBR uh was here for their individuals events for a really long time, and then COVID happened and they moved to Texas because of the restrictions.
- 49:24SPEAKER_01: But ever since they started the Teams Championship, which was like five years ago, it's been in Vegas.
- 49:29SPEAKER_01: Um where does this happen?
- 49:30SPEAKER_04: Does this happen down in South Point?
- 49:32SPEAKER_01: Uh part of it is at the South Point.
- 49:34SPEAKER_01: I forgot what that's called, but like the main teams championship is at T-Mobile.
- 49:40SPEAKER_01: Um but yeah, and the the tickets are like you can get like a nosebleed ticket, I think, for like 70 bucks.
- 49:46SPEAKER_01: So it's not bad.
- 49:47SPEAKER_01: Like if you're into this stuff.
- 49:49SPEAKER_04: Even even if you just want to go for the experience, like even if you don't go to the show, obviously you should be going to the show, but even if you don't, just going to being at South Point whenever there's some sort of western cowboy convention in town, it's crazy.
- 50:01SPEAKER_01: It's insane.
- 50:02SPEAKER_01: I love South Point.
- 50:03SPEAKER_01: I mean, it always has those vibes, right?
- 50:05SPEAKER_01: Like it always has the the Western cowboy type stuff going on.
- 50:09SPEAKER_04: Uh when Jonathan Jostle said that Michael Gond is has mastered the the art of keeping that casino busy off the strip, but mind you, uh he was spot on.
- 50:20SPEAKER_04: Because every anytime you go, whether it's a Friday, Saturday night, and people say Vegas is dead, go to South Point.
- 50:26SPEAKER_01: I know.
- 50:26SPEAKER_01: There's always people there.
- 50:28SPEAKER_04: It's always to the point where it's it's frustrating at times because you want to get to the movie theater, you want to go bowling, you want to eat food or something like that.
- 50:35SPEAKER_04: And there's a weight, and it's it's so many people.
- 50:38SPEAKER_04: So many people there.
- 50:39SPEAKER_01: South point's a blast, though.
- 50:40SPEAKER_01: Really is only complaints, the showers.
- 50:43SPEAKER_04: The what?
- 50:43SPEAKER_01: The showers at South Point.
- 50:45SPEAKER_04: Are you showering at South Point?
- 50:46SPEAKER_01: I have stayed at South Point.
- 50:47SPEAKER_04: What's wrong with the showers?
- 50:48SPEAKER_01: I just don't like them.
- 50:50SPEAKER_01: They need to, they're like the, you know, like what you would have in maybe your guest bathroom at home where it's like a tub that you step into and I slipped last time.
- 51:00SPEAKER_04: Did you go?
- 51:01SPEAKER_04: Did you say help?
- 51:02SPEAKER_04: I've fallen and I can't get up.
- 51:03SPEAKER_01: Oh, I should have my life alert on.
- 51:05SPEAKER_01: I'm sure everybody else in the building did.
- 51:08SPEAKER_01: No, but it, yeah, I'm I'm really excited about uh PBR, and of course, when NFR gets closer, I'll want to talk about that too.
- 51:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 51:16SPEAKER_01: Um, but I just I think it's so fun how many different cultures do come together in Vegas, and I feel like not enough people talk about how much the Western stuff does go on here because I mean we live in like a metropolis, like everybody here is a city boy.
- 51:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah, nobody is like really a cowboy in Vegas other than Mark Marone.
- 51:36SPEAKER_04: He is a cowboy, he's a rancher for sure.
- 51:39SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 51:39SPEAKER_01: The the roots here do like run through Western culture, and I think it's awesome that it's so celebrated here through like the long-standing rodeo history.
- 51:50SPEAKER_04: For all those reasons you listed is why I am excited for PBR or any sort of cowboy convention, cowboy crowd in town.
- 51:58SPEAKER_04: Uh, another reason of why I'm a fan is because I feel like the cowboy slash Western crowd is one of the most attractive crowds in any other demographic out there.
- 52:10SPEAKER_04: Um I I I would probably rank them number one.
- 52:14SPEAKER_04: Only ahead of the juggalos are the second most attractive crowd.
- 52:21SPEAKER_04: What?
- 52:21SPEAKER_01: You're saying juggalos, cowboys?
- 52:26SPEAKER_04: That's exactly what I'm saying.
- 52:27SPEAKER_01: Juggalos first and then cowboys.
- 52:29SPEAKER_04: No, no, no, no, no.
- 52:30SPEAKER_04: Cowboys first, juggalos second.
- 52:32SPEAKER_01: Dallas Cowboys?
- 52:36SPEAKER_01: Who do you feel?
- 52:37SPEAKER_01: When I first met my husband, all that man wore was Stetsons and Cowboy boots.
- 52:42SPEAKER_04: Is it?
- 52:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 52:43SPEAKER_04: And that's that's what that's what won you?
- 52:45SPEAKER_01: One of the one of the things, yes.
- 52:46SPEAKER_04: All right, let's let's let's do a little blind ranking for you then.
- 52:50SPEAKER_04: Let's let's have you do a blind ranking of the most attractive crowd.
- 52:52SPEAKER_01: Conceptual attractiveness.
- 52:54SPEAKER_04: Conceptual attractiveness, yes.
- 52:56SPEAKER_04: Uh let's go top five.
- 52:57SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 52:58SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 52:58SPEAKER_04: So we'll say we'll start with the rodeo cowboy western crowds.
- 53:01SPEAKER_04: We already ranked them on attractiveness.
- 53:04SPEAKER_01: It's like there's just so many different types of cowboys, it's hard to say.
- 53:06SPEAKER_04: Give me well, you're gonna have to pinpoint one, two, three, four, five.
- 53:10SPEAKER_01: Oh, so like I have to rank them without knowing what's coming next?
- 53:13SPEAKER_04: That's correct.
- 53:14SPEAKER_01: Great.
- 53:15SPEAKER_01: Um, then I'm gonna go ahead and just stick cowboys to.
- 53:19SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 53:20SPEAKER_01: What's next?
- 53:22SPEAKER_04: Jugalos.
- 53:24SPEAKER_01: 100.
- 53:29SPEAKER_01: Uh I if it's one through five, I'll say five.
- 53:32SPEAKER_01: It's not not my vibe.
- 53:33SPEAKER_01: I appreciate the culture.
- 53:35SPEAKER_01: I love that they are themselves and believe in what they believe in.
- 53:38SPEAKER_01: Not for me.
- 53:39SPEAKER_04: CrossFit.
- 53:43SPEAKER_04: People who people who do CrossFit are you obviously they're they're usually they're fit.
- 53:46SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 53:47SPEAKER_04: And usually fit people are attractive.
- 53:50SPEAKER_01: Here's the thing.
- 53:52SPEAKER_01: Again, I appreciate CrossFit.
- 53:54SPEAKER_01: A lot of my family members do it, they enjoy it, they think it's great.
- 53:56SPEAKER_01: I've done a little bit of it.
- 53:59SPEAKER_01: Um, I do feel like there is this attitude, though, with some CrossFitters, that they are the superior athletes.
- 54:07SPEAKER_04: Who is the superior athlete to compare?
- 54:09SPEAKER_01: I don't I don't know.
- 54:10SPEAKER_01: Like, but like when you put like bodybuilders, powerlifters, crossfitters, high roxers, like all of them in a room, I do feel like crossfitters just kind of think they're the best.
- 54:21SPEAKER_04: Muscle mommies are a hot thing these days.
- 54:23SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but that's not necessarily a crossfitter thing.
- 54:26SPEAKER_01: They got muscles.
- 54:28SPEAKER_01: They do, but they're not the only people that can be considered muscle mommies.
- 54:33SPEAKER_04: Alright, where are you ranking then?
- 54:34SPEAKER_01: Um I'm like so scared of what the other options are gonna be.
- 54:38SPEAKER_01: I will say three.
- 54:40SPEAKER_04: Three.
- 54:40SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 54:40SPEAKER_04: So you got two, three, and five and a hundred taken.
- 54:44SPEAKER_04: What about the EDM crowd?
- 54:47SPEAKER_04: Four.
- 54:48SPEAKER_04: Really?
- 54:50SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 54:51SPEAKER_04: Have you been to EDC at all or anything?
- 54:52SPEAKER_01: I've not been to EDC, but I've been to plenty of EDM shows.
- 54:56SPEAKER_04: EDC is like the perfect time for all the attractive people to wear scantily clad clothing outside and do a massive amount of drugs and just be free and happy and carefree.
- 55:07SPEAKER_01: Here's the thing.
- 55:09SPEAKER_04: Here's the thing.
- 55:10SPEAKER_04: You say that a lot.
- 55:11SPEAKER_01: I know I do.
- 55:13SPEAKER_01: Okay, side note, I know.
- 55:14SPEAKER_01: I've actually said that a lot my whole life.
- 55:16SPEAKER_01: And when I was younger, I had this friend named Copa.
- 55:19SPEAKER_01: And we're still friends.
- 55:20SPEAKER_01: We're just, you know, we don't talk so much.
- 55:22SPEAKER_01: And I would call her with whatever ridiculous thing is going on in my life, and she'd go, What's up, Julie?
- 55:28SPEAKER_01: And I'd say, Here's the thing.
- 55:30SPEAKER_01: And that's how I would start every phone call.
- 55:32SPEAKER_01: And she told me that one day I needed to start a podcast called Here's the Thing.
- 55:37SPEAKER_01: Here's your chance.
- 55:38SPEAKER_01: Here's my chance.
- 55:39SPEAKER_01: There's your chance.
- 55:39SPEAKER_01: Um, but with like the EDM raver crowd, I feel like that's way too broad to just say like there's a level of attractiveness to them, right?
- 55:51SPEAKER_01: But what I do experience without fail is every time I go to an EDM show, there's a lot of body odor.
- 55:59SPEAKER_01: Like that is something I cannot handle.
- 56:02SPEAKER_01: I'm not saying everybody, but everyone's out there dancing and sweating or taking drugs or drinking or it's hot, and it's like just stinky.
- 56:11SPEAKER_04: All right.
- 56:12SPEAKER_04: So I'm assuming they're going forth.
- 56:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but now I'm terrified.
- 56:16SPEAKER_01: I feel like you're just you're gonna make something up now that's not even gonna be on the list already.
- 56:20SPEAKER_04: No, there is no list.
- 56:21SPEAKER_04: I'm just I'm just winging it here.
- 56:22SPEAKER_01: Oh my god.
- 56:23SPEAKER_01: So you're just gonna give me something that has to be my number one.
- 56:26SPEAKER_04: Renaissance.
- 56:28SPEAKER_04: You just went to the Renaissance.
- 56:29SPEAKER_01: I guess it has to be number one because I don't have any other spots left.
- 56:33SPEAKER_04: So you have Renaissance, Cowboy, the Cowboy Western.
- 56:37SPEAKER_04: Wow.
- 56:38SPEAKER_04: Uh CrossFit, EDM, and then juggalos.
- 56:44SPEAKER_01: As if those are my only options.
- 56:47SPEAKER_04: What about let's let's do a bonus.
- 56:48SPEAKER_04: Where would you put in Disney adults?
- 56:52SPEAKER_04: Where would you, if you could slide?
- 56:54SPEAKER_01: Do they have children?
- 56:56SPEAKER_04: No.
- 56:56SPEAKER_01: Six.
- 56:58SPEAKER_04: Below the juggalos.
- 57:00SPEAKER_01: It it depends on the level of Disney adult.
- 57:03SPEAKER_01: Like I if I'm sick, I love to turn on Disney Plus when I'm sick and watch something.
- 57:08SPEAKER_04: But I'm talking about people that go to Disney uh attractions and parks as an adult with no kids and dress up in costume and do all that.
- 57:15SPEAKER_04: That's the that's who we're talking about.
- 57:18SPEAKER_01: Once, cool.
- 57:20SPEAKER_01: Twice, fine.
- 57:21SPEAKER_04: Three times.
- 57:22SPEAKER_01: Annual park passes where you're going every weekend.
- 57:26SPEAKER_01: It's not my vibe.
- 57:28SPEAKER_01: It's not my vibe.
- 57:29SPEAKER_01: If everything in your life is Disney and you don't have children and you're an adult, I respect your interests.
- 57:36SPEAKER_01: I'm sure I have weird interests, like we have Legos all over our house because my husband loves Legos.
- 57:42SPEAKER_04: Because you are children.
- 57:43SPEAKER_01: No, we're not children.
- 57:45SPEAKER_04: You ever step on the Legos at night?
- 57:47SPEAKER_04: Barefoot?
- 57:48SPEAKER_01: No, they're not like out for playing.
- 57:50SPEAKER_01: Like Tyler, put your Legos away.
- 57:53SPEAKER_04: We talked about this.
- 57:54SPEAKER_01: No, no, like he's done like some cool like Lego builds and stuff, and they're all like on display.
- 58:01SPEAKER_01: But point is if Disney is your thing, great and cool.
- 58:05SPEAKER_01: It doesn't make you attractive to me.
- 58:09SPEAKER_04: Interesting.
- 58:10SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 58:11SPEAKER_04: So you're putting them below.
- 58:12SPEAKER_01: But also, if someone like hates Disney, that's number seven.
- 58:16SPEAKER_04: Oh.
- 58:17SPEAKER_01: Like if you hate Disney movies, like Disney is a concept.
- 58:20SPEAKER_04: You can't just keep adding new new audiences to this list that we made up of this fake game that we just started.
- 58:25SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 58:26SPEAKER_01: Well.
- 58:26SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 58:26SPEAKER_04: Well, would you like to make any changes to your list?
- 58:29SPEAKER_01: I can't, apparently.
- 58:30SPEAKER_04: No, you cannot.
- 58:30SPEAKER_04: Too bad.
- 58:32SPEAKER_01: Next week it's your turn.
- 58:34SPEAKER_04: Next week, I'm dressing up as a juggalo, and I'm gonna see how you react to this.
- 58:37SPEAKER_01: You know what is kind of funny about it though?
- 58:39SPEAKER_01: Is like my husband went to the Renaissance fair with me.
- 58:43SPEAKER_01: My husband has been through a heavy cowboy phase.
- 58:45SPEAKER_01: My husband went through a heavy CrossFit phase.
- 58:48SPEAKER_01: It's a top three.
- 58:49SPEAKER_01: You know what's he's down with EDM.
- 58:51SPEAKER_04: You know it's not a juggalo.
- 58:53SPEAKER_04: He's a juggalo now.
- 58:54SPEAKER_01: And he's sorry.
- 58:57SPEAKER_01: We're gonna do that next show.
- 58:58SPEAKER_04: He comes home, honey.
- 59:00SPEAKER_04: I'm a juggalo now.
- 59:01SPEAKER_01: Oh my god.
- 59:02SPEAKER_01: I'd have to send him your way.
- 59:04SPEAKER_04: I'll teach him the ways.
- 59:05SPEAKER_04: No, I was a juggalo girl.
- 59:07SPEAKER_01: Obviously, like deconverted from juggalo nation.
- 59:12SPEAKER_04: I was once a juggalo, always a juggalo in my book.
- 59:15SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 59:16SPEAKER_01: Shout out juggaloes.
- 59:17SPEAKER_04: Shout out insane clown posse, ICP.
- 59:18SPEAKER_04: Shaggy too dope and violent Jay.
- 59:20SPEAKER_04: I loved them.
- 59:22SPEAKER_01: So embarrassed.
- 59:23SPEAKER_04: Let's try to get Shaggy Too Dope and Violent Jay on the show next to him.
- 59:26SPEAKER_01: Great.
- 59:27SPEAKER_04: Well, that was it, Julie.
- 59:28SPEAKER_04: That was a good little one-on-one session we had.
- 59:30SPEAKER_04: I'm glad we had this.
- 59:31SPEAKER_01: Did it feel like therapy?
- 59:32SPEAKER_04: It felt like therapy.
- 59:33SPEAKER_04: I don't know which one was a therapist and which one was the patient.
- 59:36SPEAKER_01: I feel way more stressed out, so I would say I'm probably the patient.
- 59:41SPEAKER_04: Catch new episodes each week on heybighead.com.
- 59:44SPEAKER_04: Julie, you have any last words for the jugglos out there?
- 59:47SPEAKER_01: Bye.
