• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Has anyone ever told you you have a Jesus Look
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: to you, it's.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: One more thing, one more thing.
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: Before we get to Jesus, which is I hear people
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: say a lot remember the reason for the season, or
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: people forget the reason for the season, or whatever, And
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: in my house, the reason for the season is gift giving.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: It's just that's what it is. Gets talking eat, we
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: give gifts.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: And I'm judging you harshly.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: I wish, I wish it wasn't that way. I'm in
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: control of it not being that way. Yet it's not
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: that way. So I don't even know what to say
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: about that. But it's not. We're not We don't have
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: a Jesus Christmas at our house. I had a slightly
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: more Jesus see Christmas when I was a kid because
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: we went to Sunday school, so there'd be some sort
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: of Sunday School pageant, that sort of thing. My oldest
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: goes to a Christian private school, so they do a
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: lot of uh, Nativity scenes. Yeah yeah, all kinds of
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: and the play and all kinds of stuff. So but
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: just in general, my household is not much but so
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: because of that, and since it's all gift receiving based
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: if you're a kid, that's what you're thinking about. I
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: regularly think about how much when I was a kid,
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: I anticipated various things, and like, what a waste of
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: mental energy that is. And I don't know if that's
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: like a horrible thing, and it's just part of the
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: human condition. You know, there's no harmonyly that one, but
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: which one the second one?
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: It's probably just part of the human condition.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Why looking forward to things so much, even though time
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: after time after time they don't live up to the hype.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Other than sex, I can't think of anything that's ever
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: lived up to the anticipation.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Agreed on both counts.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: And well, and what's interesting is it works for negative
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: stuff too. Yeah, yeah, that's true, generally speaking. Generally speaking,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: there are exceptions to this. You spend you know, you know,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: two weeks brooding about how awful getting your tooth fixed
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: is going to be, and then it's mostly just boring
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: for like an hour and a half, then you're out.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: But my kids have things they're really looking forward to
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: and and they'll be mildly amused or enjoy them whatever.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: But I did the same thing my whole life, and
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: you know, I'm not in a mental institution or jobless
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: or anything like that. I survived, So maybe again, maybe
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: it's just part of the human condition looking forward to
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: meaningless crap.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: It's like we mentioned yesterday during the headline segment, the
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: resting gift face. Yeah, where you're like you have that
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: split second to react and it's like.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, oh, oh, I got a good test for my
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: youngest this year. This is a good test on his
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: maturity or learning a lesson. So he wanted to go
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: to that Eagles concert at the Sphere and and we went,
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: but we had we made it very clear to agreement,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: this is this is a lot of your Christmas present
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: and your Birthday present, because his birthday is two days
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: before Christmas. This is a lot of it. Because this
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: is a very expensive thing that you really want to do.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: He was fine with that. Absolutely that is what I
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: want to do. I know it's expensive, but I'll absolutely
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: fine with that. Now I've done that sort of thing
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: myself in my life, and we'll see how that feels
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: on the day of the birthday and Christmas morning. I
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: did make a shadow box that I'm giving him that's
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: got like a picture of us out front of the
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: concert picture of the concert ticket, the lanyard we rore
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: around our neck because we got these. Yeah, I made that,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: So he's got something he can hang on his wall
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: to remember it by.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: It's also going to suggest a rolled up xerox copy
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: of a picture of the ancient Don Henley with a
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: ribbon around it.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: That's what I would do. It is.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: It is also just a nudge and remember the concert.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Huh see you remember that right, that whole conversation without
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: me having to say it out loud. Look at this
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: beautiful display of your.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: Birthday I'm giving you and Christmas that happened a couple
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: of months ago.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: You'd like to view the contract. I can remind you
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: of its terms.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: We'll see how that works out.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: When you said Jesus is the reason for this season,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: I always chuckle when I hear that, because in the
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: in the town where I grew up, there was a
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: family that lived up on the hill right along the
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: five eighty freeway running through the Bay Area, and this
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: the family had put up this sign and it was
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: lit up every single year. It said Jesus is the
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: reason for the season. But they were individual letters, probably
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: eight feet tall each. I mean this thing was huge,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: so you can see it as you're driving on the freeway.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: But that was the idea.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: And one here I don't know if they were drunk
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: when they were putting it up or whatever, but we
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: drove by it. It said Jesus is the reason fro the season?
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: And I just I remember I looked at my mom.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I was like, how did he do? You didn't look
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: at that and go somethings off?
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: You didn't proof free Giant's backyard sign.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: I wonder how many way would this hold him? Like, hey,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: fro it's fro the season? Man?
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Wow? Wow, So this is a charming tale.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Bob Sagers was walking around an indie music festival in
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: Salt Lake City when a friendly stranger approached him ask
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: him for his number. Quote, has anyone ever told you
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: that you have a Jesus look to you?
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: The man asked, Wow, okay.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: At that point, the twenty five year old Sagar, who
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: works as a cheesemonger at a grocery store. While a
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: sort of line of work, you dream of his little
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: boy dad, I.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: Want to grow up to be a cheesemonger.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: Is that basically a psalm a or some malier or whatever,
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: you call that wine cheese cheese?
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, Actually, a delicious cheese is one of
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the great pleasures in life, so I respect that.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Young men.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Maier is a much cooler name than cheesemonger. Though, No,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: it's not cheese manger. Sounds like you you clean out
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: the vats down at the warehouse.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Just cheese. Who wants cheese? Who wants cheese? We've got
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: cheese here?
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Well, you got sweet cheese, we got stinky cheese, we
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: got spicy cheese cheese.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: I took Henry over to Napa the other day. I
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: don't know why I don't do that more often, the
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: fact that I'm like thirty miles thirty minutes away from
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Napa Valley an hour labor go for anybody listening around
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: the country. But anyway, we went over there to get
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: some fabulous cheese, and man, there were some people there
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: that were just so into cheese. Look, I came here
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: to get cheese, but I just take it down like
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: eighty percent. I mean, I just can't.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I can't talk this much about cheese, right right, yeah, people,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: it's well.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: It's like the wines, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: The whole you know, the twenty seven word description of
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the way it tastes as you wash it around your.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Palate with bramble, bowdies and earth and granite.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: And all I wanted to say is, how do you
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: suppose this would be on a cracker? Pretty good? Okay?
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Anyway, So the guy who asked him about the Jesus
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: look was not trying to pick him up. The man's
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: wife was an artist looking for religious models. This guy
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: who's six five with thirty blonde shoulder lengths hair and
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: a beard, he says, he says, gives Irish and Scandinavian
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: vibes Da da da, But he he had a side
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: hustle as a savior.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: So he says.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: So the person who walked up to him pictures Jesus
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: is a small forward. I didn't ever picture Jesus at all.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Oh no, it's the long hair and the beard. As
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: we've been saying for decades now, many pictures of Jesus
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: in the Western world look like he's a member of
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Super Tramp, which is a bit of an outdated reference
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: at this point. But he looks vaguely Scandinavian, generally like
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: dirty blonde, long haired, and bearded. Even though anthropologists had
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: pointed out Jesus was almost certainly a short, stock, stocky,
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: very dark haired.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Jew obvious obviously.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: And I've seen renderings of what Jesus would look like,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: and he doesn't look like a Swedish guitarist.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Anyway.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: People models who look like Jesus are in whatever that means,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: are in high demand in Utah. That's because for a
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: growing number of people in the state, a picture isn't
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: complete without capital h him. They're hiring Jesus look like
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: for family portraits and wedding announcements.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: Wow. No, what do you have him stand between? You're
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: like kids, you the wife, couple of kids. Jesus, he's
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: doing the Trump two sums up? Wow, probably not big
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: smile on his face. Don't smile, I think so much, Jesus.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: I just it weirds me out. I just solemn. Look
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: the kids will smile.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I don't think he poses like he's your uncle, Jim.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I think it's it's more that Jesus is with us.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, God, So like models are showing up to
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: walk with a newly engaged couple through a field, like
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: they're walking hand in hand and Jesus is looking on
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: to bless the union.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, when you say you walk with Jesus, you
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: don't mean you're literally I like.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: Our way better. Do Kegg stand in the background standing family?
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Why would he be doing that, Katie thought was a
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: single reason why I like Jesus photo. Or perhaps he's
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: playing with young children in the Bonnaville salt flats, cram
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: in with the family for the annual Christmas card.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: That's closer to what you guys were talking about.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: So since being recruited about four years ago, tall mister
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Segers has posed as Jesus nearly a dozen times, and
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: as many have done it way more than that. They
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: charge about one hundred to two hundred dollars an hour
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: to pose with children, families, and couples at various locations
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: in Utah.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Wow, if you happen to look like Jesus, yeah, or
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: you can grow the hair in the beard. I suppose
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: that'd be good.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: In the popular conception of Jesus.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now, the job, but can be freighted with meaning
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: and responsibility. The right lookalikes find that people expect them
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: to embody Jesus in more ways than the hair and
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: the beard. Some models say they feel like a celebrity
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: when they don the robe and get treated like one too.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Wow, that is interesting. I could see doing that. But
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: if he's like a really grouchy guy, always staring at
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: his phone and drawing, dropping m F bombs, the whole
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: smoking a cigarettes, getting a lot of work out, hitting
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: his vap pen.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: The one guy comments or mentioned that, look, I got
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: to remind people I'm not the real thing. You gotta
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: stop acting like that.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: See that's weird. Yeah, Hey, my aunt has got cancer.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Is there anything you can do?
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: No? No, nothing. Can you walk across shove them into
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: the pool. This is my side hustle. Wow, I'm wearing
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: the rod Now.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw on jeans and my Armstrong and Geeddy
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: T shirt in about five minutes, So lighting up.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: That is something.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: See Areas of Utah with high concentrations of Mormons call
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: themselves Latter day Saint Sir Elidas, tend to lack potential
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Jesus doppelgangers because men who volunteer for the church are
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: required to shave every day and keep their hair short.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: So if you're looking for a quote unquote Jesus doppelganger,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have to go out to Park City or something.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Find a nice Cheesemongol on get down.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: The Street.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Picturing Jesus on the high dive. Well, I guess that's it.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: That's a pretty good story.
