• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Sure, I mean this still is not going to be
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: your family friendly podcast.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't recommend, you know, listening with the kids in
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the car.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: However, I will tell you that, you know, I often
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: don't think about parents driving in the car with their
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: kids when I should be. I remember a few times
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: discussing Santa Claus and or the Tooth Fairy on the
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: air and getting some nasty emails from some parents in
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Lowersaucen Township that were a little annoyed.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and how did you say?
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: I think, I like told the story about how I
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: discovered that Santa Claus and all that shit was fake.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Ah. That's an interesting topic though, Like when is it
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: okay to talk about something like that in public? Mark?
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: What do you think?
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: It seems to me like people do whatever they want
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: in public anymore?
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: What's they cut off with Santa Claus? What's the cutoff
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: with Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy for them?
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Matter if you're fifteen or sixteen and still will even
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: either well.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Fifteen, geez, fifteen you want to? I mean, I feel
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: like you figure it out on your own by like,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: so I started asking some questions second third, fourth grade?
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: You know around there for fourth grade? Is that when
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: you found out? Fourth grade, even I think is a
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: little old. Third grade? I think is is that when
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: you found out? Can you?
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what about you? Mark?
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: My parents told us from the start that it wasn't true.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Really yep. Interesting huh.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: So my job was just to not tell other people
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: that I knew this.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, was there a reason they It was just because
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: they didn't want to spread false stories. They said they
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: just didn't feel comfortable lying to us.
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: Huh.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Very interesting. I found out because I found presents hidden
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: and I stumbled upon them, and then I acted like
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I didn't know. But then they found out that I
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: definitely found them. Like there was like I made a mess,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, I was going through stuff. Yeah,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: and I think I was probably about eight. Yeah, if
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I had to guess, yeah, no, I'll tell you how
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I found out. It was.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: It was like a quadruple Waymy my parents took care
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: of it all in one. So I got in trouble
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: for a lying in school. I got like I lied
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: about something. I don't remember the specifics of what, but again,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I was in elementary school.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I think I was in like second third grade. Previously.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: It was like Easter, so the Easter bunny had dropped
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: off a basket.
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: And I remember this as I don't know, I don't
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: know why I did this, but I remember this as
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: a kid, like I remember waking up on Easter morning
• 3:23
  Speaker 6: and I remember taking a dog treat, like going in
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: the cabinet in the kitchen and taking a dog treat
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: and putting a dog treat in the easter basket and
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: being like, oh.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: The Easter bunny left a treat for the dog. And
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: I remember my parents waking up that morning and being like,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: why is there what what the Easter bunny left the
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: treat for the Oh okay, yeah, the Easter bunny left
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: the tree for the dog.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, sure, sure.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: And then I remember getting in trouble a couple weeks
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: later at school for lying about something, and I remember
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: my parents being so pissed off at me that my
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: mom freaked out and was like, you know how I
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: know you lied because there is no Easter Bundy because
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I'm the Easter buddy and I'm the tooth fairy.
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but you know, are you traumatized?
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: No, Because, like, in their defense, I was a little
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: ship back then, Dude, I was like always I was
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: always in trouble, Like there was always something going on.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: So I can see that. Yeah, yeah, it's not that bully, man.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I their fault. I drove them to drink. It's amazing
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: my parents aren't alcoholics.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I wonder what a kid would think an experience of
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: actually seeing the Easter Bunny would be like them, because.
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: Could you imagine then, could you imagine waking up in
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: this giant but especially if it looks like the Easter
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: Bunny at the mall, that's creepy.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: That thing hops in your house. It doesn't even have
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: to hop because it's like a human.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: Even if you saw that from a distance, it would
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: be scary.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Let alone walking into your living room like at night
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: and seeing the silhouette of a gigantic Easter Bunny in
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: your living Oh my god. Yeah, that's horrifying. You could
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: you imagine? That's a very good point, Mark, very good point.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Your apartment's not that bad today said it was gonna
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: be messy, But it looks like you did some straightening up.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I did. I I tried to clean up a little bit.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Do you remember when you walked in here, Mark, if
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: it smelled like any kind of herb. I don't think
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: it smelled like anything. I've had a candle. So Mark
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: and I lived together for a really long time back
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: in the day. We used to smoke in our apartment
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and we lived above a pizza restaurant in downtown Bethlehem.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Do the math. People were listening around. Wow, let's be clear.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: You say, oh that sounds awesome, right does unless you
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: have a guy who runs a pizza shop and somehow
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: can fuck up pizza. You know what. The pizza wasn't good,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: It wasn't very good. So wasn't preferred. I wasn't preferred.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Was it free? Ever? One time? It comes to mind
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: one time? Wait, wait, one time our friend at old roommate, Ron,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: who lives in Canada. Now, we were we got really high.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: We went outside and we were having a cigarette I
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: smoked at the time, and then our landlord came out
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: with a pizza box and he said, hey, you guys
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: want to leftover pizza? And I went no, and Ron goes, yeah,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: well the pizza and he's like, don't say no to
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: you know, our landlord like that. But you know, a
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: plain pizza, how can you fuck it up? Some places can't,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: it turns out. But the rest of the food pretty good.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: And we had access to beer way too easily, you know.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: And if we ran out of beer, I was in
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: a four loco phase for a while.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I had the caffeine in it yeah, so Becker
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: would just be up all night drinking his four loco
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: and staying on Wednesday night.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Yuh four loco?
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Is it scientifically proven that if you smoke a lot
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: of marijuana that your nose doesn't smell it? Like I
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: feel like I don't smell weed like other people do.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Ah same here, Like sometimes some people walk in this
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: apartment and they go, whoa reeks in here, dude, And then.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Other people are like, I don't smell anything. I think
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: you get acclimated to do it. It's just something that
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: you do. You think it's smelled like today, Just curious
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: because most people when they come in here, you ask
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: them do you smell like weed in your But when
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: we lived together, we had people over all the time,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: always smoking, and I just always thought, oh, if my
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: dad had to come over or something like that, we
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: could clean the place up, like put the pillows on
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: the couch and put some air freshener and stuff like that.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: No one's gonna figure, you know.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: This was in our twenties. That was different. I think, yeah,
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: And if I did have somebody coming over, I was
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: definitely aware of making sure they were that it was
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: aired out or whatever needed to be done, you know, Yeah, definitely,
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: but that just didn't happen a lot at that period
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: of time. Yeah, I normally didn't have any money over
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: that would be any kind of.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, most of our friends smoked. That apartment was occupied
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: for a long time, over a decade. And I don't
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: know if our landlord knew that we smoked upstairs or
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: if he didn't know. And then the one day I
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: found out he actually did know because I was home
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: from work on a day off, I had a friend over,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: and typically when we smoked, the windows were closed, and
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: that particular day, I decided for some reason to open
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: up the window. And are you paying attention? I need
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: your reaction to this story. I'm taking selfie, okay, anyway, No, no, no,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: go ahead, No, I'm playing attention.
• 8:11

• 14:29
  Speaker 1: My guess is nineteen ninety two.
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: Three.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, I guess I have to give it to you.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: The reason why you got that correct is because my
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: face gave it away what you started saying two? I
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: should have just let you say two because you would
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: have fallen on your face.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. That's three. Do
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you remember when Jurassic Park came out? Ye, salt in
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: theaters in nineteen ninety three. How old were you in
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety three? Nine? Oh, so that was like a
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: big deal when that came out. Oh I was a
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: mega mega release. Yeah. Do you remember where you saw it?
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Mark Boyd Theater? I believe where you saw it at
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: the Roxy in Northampton? Wow? Good?
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: Those were both cut options. The Roxy still is.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: And how much do you think you paid for that
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: movie ticket in nineteen ninety three?
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: Like?
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: What seven dollars?
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Probably dollars seventy five, Probably a dollar seventy.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Five, Maybe it was two fifty what? Yeah, movies were
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: pretty inexpensive in the early nineties. Wow, also made a
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: lot less money, you know, and all balances out in
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the end. Have you ever seen that movie Jurassic Park?
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Have you seen any other ones?
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: They should have stopped after the first one, right, yeah, Well, no,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: they're not like some of them. The last one they earlier.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: How many is there.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: There have been four of these new ones, right, so
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: that I think seven total.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Seven. It's just like Jaws, that's his favorite movie. I
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: think Jaws. It's up there.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: I like the original one, Jaws two is okay, and
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: then after that it's like, all right, come on here.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: It's interesting that they continue following that same family, different
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: members of the Brody family, and they always live near
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: the water.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Always, right.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: You think it after all that drama that they would move,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: and they would move. You know, it's like, man, wouldn't
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: it be nice to move to Gee? I don't know Idaho? Yeah,
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: I don't think there's water in Idaho? Right about a farm?
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: You know's Idaho? Ridiculous.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: I've said this for years. This is how I feel
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: about the movie Home Alone two, because I love the
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: original Home Alone, like the first one with Macaulay Culkin,
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: and then the.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Second one lost in New York. People love this movie.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I think it's stupid as shit. I love the second one.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: I think it's hilarious. Boston, New York. Yeah, it's very
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: similar to the first. Yeah, we re expecting like a different format.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I like Home Alone three or four better than
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: the second one.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Nobody's even watched those Yes, yes, what you know why?
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: I like it better because it's not the McAllister family,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: So it's easier to believe, like, what are the odds
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: that they leave their kid at home one year and
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: go to Paris and then the next year they go
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: to New York and then man, they lose them in
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: New York too.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: It's like, boy, what are these people do it? Somebody
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: take all of their kids away. I'll die standing on
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: that hill. That Home Alone three is better than Home
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Alone two. That movie is atrocious. Oh it's better.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: At least it's a really really it's a different family.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: I guess Question two, Okay, let's do some acronyms here.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: What does the acronym PDF as in a PDF document?
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: What does a PDF stand for?
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Photo design format? I have no idea.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: All right, so you got one word out of the
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: three of them, correct? Which one format are you going
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: to your lifeline?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: I thought it was like public display, fection, faction.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: I have no idea. It's a portable document format. A
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: portable document format.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: It's a good one. Interesting, So you like sending PDF.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: It's one of my favorite formats to receive a document.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Ah, yeah, can't go wrong with the PDF, right, we
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: all love PDFs.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: You know what I pretend to be good at every day?
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: What Excel? Yeah, that's my new thing. I don't know
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: how I excel. Excel is confusing. I don't know how
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: to use it. Do you know do you know any
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: of like the key commands or anything?
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: No?
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: No, no, I have not had to use Excel since
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: two thousand and three. You know the thing that bothers
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: me about Excel. It should be easy, but you should
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: be able to type in like two plus three equals
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: and it should just spit out the answer for you.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: And instead it throws some like weird looking like format.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Like there's a calculator will do that?
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know you know what I mean, and I
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: know that I know what two plus three is five? Right, Yeah.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: I don't think you need the Internet for that. Okay.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Question three? Okay, anyway, high school chemistry? Fucking goofy.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: What's the chemical symbol for potassium?
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say mark for the last one. I'm gonna
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: take a stab at this one and say it's p
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: P potassium. No, it's wrong already, It's not P. Fuck ship,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: We're not supposed to curse. All right, guy, what is it?
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Fuck shit or fuck mark?
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: I guess for chemistry questions. I'm not a lifeline.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Just for fun.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: You want to take a stab at it, well, my
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: all my guesses would have also begun with P.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So it's no, it's not something that you would think.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Seven three? No? Is he wrong? Is it seven to three?
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: What did you say? What? Who are you? What's the answer?
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: It's busy taking another fucking selfie for whatever reason. The
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: answer is k K. I know that it's up a bitch.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah you know what.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: You knew that because I told you that one last
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: time when we talked about chemistry and the podcast.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Damn it. Yeah, So it was a double way of me.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: I wanted to see if you knew the chemistry question,
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: and then I wanted to see if you're paying attention
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: to the last time.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Noah. Sometimes I'll listen to the podcast and like, kind
• 20:16

• 21:08
  Speaker 1: used it since the early two thousands. I was gonna
• 21:13

• 30:22
  Speaker 1: I've always liked true crimes, Brady Bunch. What else true crime? Stuff?
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: Documentaries, music, game shows, game shows, a lot of documentaries.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: If it's longer than an hour. He probably hasn't seen it.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: It's just pretty crazy. Hour and a half. Yeah, so
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: a lot. We saw that Dylan movie. How long was that? Yeah?
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: I think I passed out. But uh, Mark works in travel,
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: I do a lot of stuff. And actually, as he
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: had said, tropical.
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to go specialist good, but yeah, I
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: want to go somewhere war with tropical. All right, So
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: here's here's the thing I wanted to talk about this.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: So I want to go on a cruise really bad.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: Have you been on a crew Well, technically yes, my
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: parents took me on an Alaskan cruise when I was
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: two or three years old.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: Okay, so, but Alaska's not tropical. We discovered that Alaska's not.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: I went on.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: I've been on a couple of river cruises before. But
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: as far as actual cruises, we definitely sell them. But
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: I personally don't really like to be out on the
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: water for that length of time. Just personal preference. Yeah,
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: almost a fear, I guess.
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: So that's why I can't tell you much from personal experience.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I just want to experience it one time.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: There's so much to do, man, there's so many restaurants
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: and there's but think about.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: How many carsple are on that ship, you know, like,
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: versus how much you actually be able to do well.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Some people do love cruises. What do you like about that? Over?
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: Just like an all inclusive resort in some tropical location.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: I'm having all of that and a beach that you
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: can go to anytime.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: I like the idea of and a lot of people
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: don't when they're on vacation. But I like the idea
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: of the ship people telling you when stuff is going
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: to happen. You get off the ship, you do some stuff,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: you come back, dinner is now you learn it?
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: That? Yeah, kind of.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: I like the idea that. I don't know if I
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: like that, but I think I like that. That's why
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: I want to go try it and experience it for
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: the first time.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I just don't feel like I would
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: be I want to be on a schedule like that.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: When I'm on Vakasha, I just want to relax for
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: the most part. I'll kind of go about the day
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: of what happens happens.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: You know. Well, don't you like the idea too of
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: you're in one place one day and then you're in
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: another place another day. I want to go on a cruise.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: I can't find anybody that wants to cruise with me.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: It's a cheap way to travel. You can see a
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: lot for not a lot of money. And again I
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: think that there's a lot to do on a cruise ship.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: I've watched all these documentaries. I watched the documentary on
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Netflix about the poop Cruise. However, dude, I tell you
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: the thing that I watched recently on Netflix, also involving
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: a cruise was so good and you need to go
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: home right now and watching. If you're listening to watch
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: it you haven't already. It's called Where is Amy Bradley
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: or Amy Bradley Is Missing? I think that's what it's called.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: It's about this woman in nineteen ninety eight, in like
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: March of nineteen ninety eight, and that disappears on a
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: cruise ship at three point thirty.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: In the morning. Her and her brother are like partying on.
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: This cruise ship and they get back to their room
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: and they're sitting out on the balcony and he goes
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: into bed, and it's three thirty in the morning. Again,
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: she's sitting out on the balcony, she's smoking her cigarettes.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: He goes into bed and that's the last time they
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: see her, and she just mysteriously disappears off this cruise ship.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Geez, yeah, you want to watch that and then go
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: on the cruise.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: No, No, I'm not saying this. I'm not saying that
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: this is I know, weird connection. I'm not saying this
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: is motivating me to go on a cruise. I'm saying
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: that through it all, there's all these reasons to not
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: go on a cruise, and I'm like, screw you people,
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go on a cruise.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: You're right, there are plenty of reasons to go on
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: a cruise. A lot of people love it. We got
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: a lot of a lot of cruiser requests. Definitely if
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: you like to get out in the water. And Becker
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: and I have friends who have a list going of
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: every island they've been to, and a lot of times
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: that's you know, they can rack up a few on
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: one cruise and they just enjoy doing that.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: The one thing that I am concerned about, though, I
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: remember when I was I don't know, probably thirteen twelve thirteen,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: my aunt and uncle uh took me and my cousin's
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: on this deep sea fishing expedition which was awful gets sick.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: The reason why it was awful, yeah, is because I
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: got real nauseous the whole time. And I'm hoping that
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: if I go on a cruise, like because the ship
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: is so big, like, you don't feel it rocking back
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: and forth?
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: Do you?
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: I don't think you do. I think you do, and
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: you get used to it. That makes me a little nervous.
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: I'm sure that you're sweet or your room would come
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: with like a barf bag, like on an airplane.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Oh that's wonderful. I'm glad. I know that. Thank God,
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: that really sold me. You gonna go a cruise? Oh well, well,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: my god, I have a barf bag now, of course
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: I have to a you'll be alone. So here's here's
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: about when you travel, Like are you gonna want to
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: bring a pen with you or have something to smoke? Okay,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: So this is.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Interesting because we're going to talk about this and it
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: may or may not be incriminating, but whatever. The statute
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: of limitations is long over now, right, so as of recently,
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: like I went to California, and I know that recreational
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: marijuana is legal in Los Angeles, is legal in California,
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: and there's dispensaries on every street corner. It's like it's
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: like coffee shop, dispensary, record store. Coffee shop, dispensary, record store.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: It's perfect. And that's where I got. Los Angeles has
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: made for me. It's great. But anyway, I still like
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: felt the urge and I don't know why, but I
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: still felt the urge to like make sure that I
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: had a disposable with me just in case. Yeah, and
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: I did end up taking some medables, but I don't know.
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: I feel like you do kind of have to be
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: a little worried, not worried, but concerned smart with how
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: you travel with your marijuana.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Still right, well, it is not legal to cross state
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: lines with it, even on a cruise. I think marijuana
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: on a cruise is like a big no no, isn't
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: it correct?
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: You definitely aren't supposed to travel with it?
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: Will they?
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: Will they say something? Just my opinion, I don't think
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: that's generally what they're looking for. However, if you got
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: randomly pulled aside so they search through all your things,
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: that's happened to me before they do it. Sometimes do
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: you want them to see that? So if you're going
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: to a place where, like you said, you can get
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: it no problem. Potentially it would be an unnecessary risk.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, however, California you can get it no problem. You
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: going to some island, you can get it, no problem.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: But you gotta trust some random dude on the street.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not doing that.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean there are some places that have decriminalized it,
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: you know, like in Jamaica.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: It's I guess more or less what it is.
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: Like in Philadelphia, you're allowed to have a certain amount
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: and it's usually pretty generous. But I mean, and they
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: have medical the Rastafarians, if you are a Rastafarian. But
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: I don't think that that applies to Taurus. Maybe it does,
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: I think that even if you have your med card
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: like in the United States and you go to travel,
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: you can't travel with marijuana, right, you.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Know a how to travel with it regard traveling period
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, like you shouldn't have any of that
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: on you ever. Yeah. I also think that at the
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: end of the day, TSA is really just looking for
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: like yeah, like he says, Yeah, the dogs are looking
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: for the bad stuff.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: It's very impressive to me that they can smell bombs.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the dogs. Yeah, dogs are crazy, right, Lucy.
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: You hear this.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: You hear what these dogs are doing, Lucy. They're changing
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: the world. And what are you doing? You're barking at
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: everybody up. Maybe she's a drug sniffing dog. Maybe that's
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: why she freaks out when people come over, because she
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: doesn't like the weed.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not good enough. That's the real reason why
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: my dog doesn't like you. Are we going to spark
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: a debate here quick? Before we get out of here?
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: Do you have something to talk about?
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: I have something to talk about? Do it all right,
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: let's talk about it.
• 37:57
  Speaker 5: Welcome to spark a debate where Becker and Joel turn
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: one topic. You're doing all out, puff puff, pass off
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: and see who burns out first.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: All right, Oh god, a weird look you gave me.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: I want to I want to debate Becker's idea of
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: vacation time and how he takes his vacation time. Oh
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: so it's kind of tied into what we were just
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: talking about, because yes, it's exactly perfect vacation time.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're not going anywhere. That's the difference anyway.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: If I'm doing like a staycation. Yeah, like, I'm just
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: if I'm just taking days off.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, let's debate this because I
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: think that what you do is genius.
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: However, I think it's annoying. It's an art, it's an
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: annoying It's this annoying strategic way of utilizing your time
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: off that I've earned by it. But it's annoying, all right.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: So this is what this is what this, This is
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: what this dude does. I notice. I really want to
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: curse right now, and I can't. But this is what
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: he does.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: So in the summertime, instead of taking off for you know,
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: like a week at a time here and there, like
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: most normal people do, mister Becker over here takes off
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: every Monday of every Monday of the week for four
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: months in a row. It fucking seems like today's Monday.
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: We're recording this podcast. Did you work today?
• 39:14
  Speaker 5: No?
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: No, you didn't because it's Monday. So you always work
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: a four day work week, not all the time. I
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: start taking time off in July. I don't take any
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: time off in the beginning part of the year. So
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: there's like six months where I don't take off at all.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: That's valueboy.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: Friday in December. Yeah, and I take three day weekends
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: pretty much in December and October, especially because I like
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: the haunted spooky season, like to watch Hart movies and stuff. Yeah,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: it's a good way to take vacation time. It's smart.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Make you get three days off. Listen to me.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's more smart. I'm just saying I've
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: been on the receiving end of this.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: It's like, oh, joy to work past ten thirty. Now,
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: you were there pretty often now, yeah, you know anybody
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: when I worked with you, you were always I was
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: always hustling. However, it'd be like, oh, where's record? Oh
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: oh well it's Monday. Hey, I worked there for twenty years.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: I have a lot of vacation time.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: I know. Well why can't And don't you think it's
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: been more beneficial for me to take one day off
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: here and there rather than a full week.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Would you rather cover all my work for a full week?
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: It makes sense. I do it for other people because
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: it was mostly for my own sanity. You guys would
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: funck shit up all the time. I come back and
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: be like, what did you guys even do while I
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: was gone? Do it for other people? Let me get
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: you my let me get my violin.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: Anyway, we were gonna say, Mark, I'd rather listen to that.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: Do you ever take off in the middle of the week. No,
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: I think that's kind of fun sometimes, just like a
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: random Wednesday. I wanted just for a few nights to
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: Camcoon earlier in the year, just by myself. Yeah, just
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: in the middle of the week for the heck of it.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of like a tease for me,
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: like I'm gonna be like, oh, I have one random
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: day off then have to go back to work the
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: next day. Already, it just seems kind of not my speed.
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: I'd just rather have a long weekend. So it is
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: pretty good though. It's a good way to take your
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: time off, wouldn't you agree?
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Again, I'm not that that's not the coworker as a coworker, though,
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: if anybody else did that that you work with, wouldn't
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: that piss you off?
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: As an employee?
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: How?
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: What do you mean?
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: How you No?
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: I know, I know it's my time though. I know.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: I know, like I'm right now at a newer job
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: and I'm doing that, you know, and they're okay with
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: that right out the gate. You're doing that and they're
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: all right with that.
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: I do.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: Listen when I'm out you are, And just like I
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: did when I worked with you, Joel, I would work
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: my butt off to make it as as easy as possible.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: I would work way ahead. I would work late nights
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: to do that for you guys. So it's just a
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: busy job. Now I'm able to work ahead. Like today,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: I left very little things for people to do, and
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: hopefully if they had anything to do, it was like
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: something that came down today. It wasn't something that I
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: left there.
• 42:02
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: I like Fridays and Mondays.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: You know, I have some friends at work for these
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: big corporations in New York City and they have UPTO.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: You know what, this is unlimited unlimited paid time off.
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: But the interesting thing when you talk to people that
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: have that, it's so funny. All the old people that
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: are listening to this podcast right now are.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: Like, limited paid time off?
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: What is that? And it's like, well, it's when you
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: have an unlimited amount of days that you can take
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: off and you still get paid. Yeah, shocking concept.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: I like that. You think older people are listening to
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: this like they've made it this far. Yeah? True, Probably not,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: probably not. But no.
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: The interesting thing is when you talk to people that
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: actually have unlimited paid time off, it seems that it really,
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: at the end of the day, to me, sounds like
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: more or less like a scheme because you either don't
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: use your days ever or you use it all the time.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: So you used it. Either you it or you abuse it.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: There's really no like fine line.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: But also though, I think that there's going to be
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: no such thing as like a nine to five job
