• 0:27
  Speaker 1: all right, that'll get me through the next few minutes.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: with us inside the tree house. I'm Daniel Maalley, along
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: with a clear chested Trey Trenholm and a face clogged
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Raj Sharma. It is Thursday, August seventh, twenty twenty five.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Thank you everyone for being in attendance today, not just us,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: but for you listening. Trey. Uh recommendation to get rid
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: of the chest stuff.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Uh. If it's in your chest, you need to go
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: see a doctor.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, what else do you got I'm gonna
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: go with. I'm gonna go with. The other option is doctor.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're coughing stuff up.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: A little bit this morning.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Stuff.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: If if you feel like you've got a bunch of
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: fluid in there but it's not coming up, then I
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: would get an expectorant like musinex h D. M Okay.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: If you want something to dry you up, then you
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: need to get like the musin x D. When you
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: have to get from behind the pharmacy counter and you
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: have to show them your ID.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good stuff.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but uh, if it's if it's green, then you've
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: got an active infection going on.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Gotcha. It's interesting because back in my smoking days, it
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: was hard to tell whether or not you had an
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: infection because you cough stuff and it was interesting colors anyway,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: usually more of the brown tint. Speaking of which, Raj,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: is there something.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: There's incense going from my morning prayers?
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Okay, got one. That's why I didn't know if you
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: had some sort of different therapy you were doing with
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: your face, stuff like like hot vics.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: What IFEL was like, no, it could just be ghosts.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: I And I'm also a big advocate of the sinus.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Rents, the netty pot thing.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: It's it's Doctor Neil's sinus rints, but it's a squeeze bottle,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: not the netty pot. But I can't do the netty pot.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: It's such an awkward deal, but same principle. It's just
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: a little more force, but it really cleans out your sinuses.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: And I I have been doing it for I don't know,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: fourteen fifteen years now, and it's a.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Little more forced, like power washing my sinuses. Yes, Oh,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: I've recently come out of the power washing closet. I'm
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: a big, big fan of that. So if there's a
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: way to power wash my insides, I'm all for it.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: I mean it's not as therapeutic because I can't see
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the muck and the grime disappearing, but at least i'd
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: be able to feel it.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Oh no, no, that's not true.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: You'll see it.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, when you when you when you power wash
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: your sinuses, the stuff that comes out, especially when you're sick. Oh,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: it's a doozy.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Oh where does it come out? I was just thinking
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: it just like you. I was still get just kind
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: of drained.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: No, you squeeze the bottle so it goes up one
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: side one nostril and down the other. But you're renting
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: out your sinuses where all this crap is and uh boy,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: oh you can get Oh. When I've had some science infections,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: I have had stuff come out. I mean you're like,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: how does that much stuff fit in there? I mean
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: it it's and it's usually like that good neon green yeah, inhale,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: but it's cleaning those sinuses out, so they it helps
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: a lot.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Same with like a colon rinse. It'll be.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Interesting you mention that because I've heard of two separate
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: stories that are huge red flags about certain rinses. One
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: was a quote unquote influencer who did like five coffee
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: inemas a day and decided to go with that as
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: opposed to chemo for the cancer she was diagnosed with. Obviously,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: that made news because she died. Uh So on top
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: of that, there was a Nettie Pot story. I'm pretty
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: sure it was a Netty Pot thing. I don't remember
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: with the details of it, but it made the news
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: and some lady was doing Netty Pot stuff and it
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: did something bad to her. I don't know if if
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: she had like a flesh eating bacteria thing that she
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: was trying, did Nettie Pot flesh out of her or something.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: But it's just weird that those two things. Well, actually
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: it's not weird. We're humans. We can ruin anything we
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: get our hands on. I can see if I can
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: find that.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, if you're using a Nettie Pot to
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: try to teach to treat flesh hitting eating bacteria, yeah,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: that's yeah.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: And if you're if you're doing coffee for cancer, that
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: sounds like a fundraiser, but that's not.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's not energize the cancer.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's more like walking up to a three
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: alarm fire and going.
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: I got an idea, I'm a fireman, bring me a fan.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I actually had it pretty close to accurate. This is
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: twenty eighteen when the story happened, but I know I
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: just saw something about it recently. December twenty eighteen, a
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Seattle woman died after becoming infected with a brain eating
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: a meal. The woman told her doctor she had used
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: tap water and a nettie pot instead of saline or
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: something else, so she wasn't trying to wash out the
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: brain eating amba with the nettie pot. She got the
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: brain eating amiba from the netti pot tap water, but she.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Didn't use the saline solution, so she'd just put tap
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: water in there.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it says she used yeah, instead of saline or still,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: instead of saline or sterile water, she used tap water
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: in the netty pot.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: We'll do it.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: The whole purpose of the nettypot is you put the
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: little saline solution in there, then you put the water in.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: But nice you have warm water.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: And uh sterilize everything.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I'm really glad that this. Okay, I'm
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: not glad this woman died, but it teaches me a
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: valuable lesson because if there's anyone on this planet that,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: instead of spending money on buying a nettie pot, that
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: would just shove a garden hose up my nose, it's me. Yeah,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: because it's not about necessarily cutting corners. But I feel
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: like if there's a you know, a cheaper version, I
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: don't like being taken advantage of. If there's a cheap
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: version I can do at home that gets the same result,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I'll do that now, keeping in mind, if things are
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: bad enough, I will go to the doctor. I'm not,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: you know, an idiot man about it, but you know,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: usually when the netty pot stuff I see it, I don't.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think I even knew that you were supposed
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: to use a saline thing. Usually when I've seen people
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: do it, they're using tap water.
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: But yeah, she cut corners too and got a flesh
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: eating amba or a brain eating Ambat packets they come
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: with little packets of saline solution, and yes, tell wman
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: to open.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Put it in there. Put you can put tap water
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: in there and you're fine.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: See there's a neurosurgeon who operated on the sixty nine
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: year old woman. She arrived in the hospital's er suffering seizures.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Doctors thought she had a tumor previously diagnosed with breast cancer.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Sore on her nose would not go away. When they operated,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: he discovered its tumor the size of a dime. He
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: removed that he thought it looked suspicious for ambit infection.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: He said he was pretty shockedcause he had never seen
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: that before. Her condition quickly deteriorated. After about two weeks,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: he performed another surgery removed the mass the size of
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: a baseball, and pictures disease. Doctors contacted CDC and they
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: sent medicine for it, but the woman could not be saved.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: So I get it doesn't say whether or not she
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: knew she had the infection from the amibia. I'm guessing
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: she didn't, But the doctors still say they think her
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: death was ultimately tied to her use of the nettypot.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: Improper use of the nettie pot.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, yeah, all right, so I'll take your warnings.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it. If me garden hosing and power washing
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: my lungs doesn't work over the next two days, then
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I will go to the doctor. I'm not going to
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: avoid it entirely.
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: Okay, And if you get a brain eating amba from
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: a garden hose in the US Virgin Islands, then it.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Can't be any worse than the brain activity I currently have.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: If you are.
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: Listening to the Treehouse, visit us online at Treehouse on
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: Air dot com.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Hell, it might it might have the opposite effect. I
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: might actually restore some brain function in my head. Time
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: out to talk to Daniel Cook from COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: To get your free roof inspection, call the Man eight
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: three three cook DFW the website cookdfw dot com.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Daniel.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: How long does it typically take for a small problem
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: on a roof to turn into a big problem?
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: Dan?
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: It all depends on the type.
• 9:47
  Speaker 7: Of roof you have, depends on the age of the roof,
• 9:50
  Speaker 7: depends on you know where roof the problem is at,
• 9:53
  Speaker 7: and so all those variables are extremely challenging to try
• 9:58
  Speaker 7: to put in a time slot. But I will tell
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: you that's why it's so important to get your roof
• 10:02
  Speaker 7: checked out at least once a year so those things
• 10:04
  Speaker 7: are caught because it might not show its head at first,
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: and then you know, a year goes by and then
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: all of a sudden you striving a problem. So definitely important.
• 10:14
  Speaker 7: You know, like we've talked about before, flashings, you know,
• 10:18
  Speaker 7: penetrations on shingles, you know, scraping from trees, rodents, wear
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: and tear issues when that you can't see shingles blown
• 10:26
  Speaker 7: off in parts of your roof because you have a
• 10:28
  Speaker 7: two story house that you can't see from the ground.
• 10:31
  Speaker 7: These are all reasons why you have to get us
• 10:33
  Speaker 7: to come out. It's a free visual inspection. We'll take
• 10:36
  Speaker 7: some pictures, we'll show you what you have wrong, believe
• 10:39
  Speaker 7: it or not. I would say almost eighty five percent
• 10:41
  Speaker 7: of the roofs that we jump up on do not
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: need a roof replacement, and people are shocked when we
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: come back down. And so it's just education, it's just
• 10:48
  Speaker 7: protecting your home.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: That's what we're here to do.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: And giving an honest assessment to people. So give danielan

• 11:38
  Speaker 1: three Cook DFW. That's eight three three Cook DFW or
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: their website cookdfw dot com. It's an interesting world we
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: live in, gentlemen. Case in point. Earlier this year, we
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: learned that Washington State successfully eradicated their murder hornet threat
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: in the Pacific northwest right, but now we have a
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: new nightmare flying around. Radioactive wasps and nests have been
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: found at a Cold War era nuclear site in South Carolina.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Investigators found hot nests inside a nuclear weapons facility in
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: South Carolina, with scientists warning it could be evidence of
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: either a leek or contamination that was not previously detected.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: The US Department of Energy said that nests are not
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: believed to pose their risk to workers or the surrounding community,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: which tells us that we should all be terrified.
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: I would burn I would burn it to the ground,
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: all of it. There would be no South Carolina.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I kind of think you have to, don't you.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, No, the whole, the whole, the whole state gone by.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: North Carolina had a good run. You're one of the ogs,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: but we got we gotta do what's right for the
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: rest of the forty.
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: Nine radioactive wasps. What are we doing.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: With babies because these are nests? Yeah? No, no, I
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: mean I mentioned this earlier, but seriously, as humans, what
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: can't we ruin?
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: I'm allergic to bees. I can't imagine what a radioactive
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: wasp would do to me.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: At best, turn you into the toxic avenger. That is
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: best case scenario.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: That would be my punishment. I'd be wasp man.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Baby. Check out my stinger.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: It's radioactive.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: You're just a glowing creep. There's no actual power that
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: comes with it. No, okay, according to doctor According to
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: doctor Timothy Mousseau, a biologist at the University of South Carolina,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: So this is interesting. So the problem is in North Carolina,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: but they're having the bro from South Carolina do the research.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: I think it's South Carolina.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think what's South Carolina?
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: It's South Carolina.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Oh it was Why did I oh, it was South Carolina.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: My bad.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know why I was thinking it was North Yeah, he.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: Was trying to knock off North Carolina for no reason.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I guess, so go found no idea why guilt by association? Anyways,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: my apologies. Biologists at the University of South Carolina is dead.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: This is an indicator that there are contaminants spread across
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: this area that had not been completely encased and protected.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Oh he's good. He's doctor Timothy Smart, that one, he says.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: A total of four contaminated nests have now been found
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: at the facility near Aiken, around twenty miles east of Augusta, Georgia.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: That's according to federal officials. A first nest was discovered
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: by workers at the Savannah River site, which produced material
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: for nuclear weapons during the Cold War.
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: All right, so Georgia has got to go too, Okay, good,
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: good enough, just kind.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Of carve out a whole section of the se see
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: in the a CC. Sorry, guys, Yeah, Georgia's gone. Uh
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: and the game Cocks are gone. Uh so isn't isn't
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: it the Charlotte Hornets. Isn't that the team?
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: But that's North Carolina?
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: That's yeah.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: That's yeah, that's gotta go too. It's it's too close.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: So this is one of those things, though, I feel
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: like we're gonna look back and there. Had they just
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: taken a flamethrower to them and just eradicated them, we'd
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: all been okay. But something tells me they're not gonna
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: do it, and they're gonna study him, and this is
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: where everything goes wrong.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: You thought COVID was bad.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: Uh huh.
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: I don't think you can get I don't think you
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: can get a jab for radioactive wasp.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Oh they'll give you a jab. Yeah.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: And Raj you said that if radioactive wasps, you know,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: radioactive wasps, Jesus Christ, radioactive wasps being found in South
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: Carolina at a former nuclear site would mean we'd have
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: to get rid of all the surrounding areas, all the
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: things in the surrounding areas, like the South Carolina game cocks,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: whereas I contend, you may not have to get rid
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: of them, because, like Trey said, we'll probably just study
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: these things like a bunch of idiots, which means we'll
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: be okay with a bunch of radioactive game cocks running around.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Well no, no, no, no, no, hang on. Now, let's not
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: destroy these yet. This is pretty interesting. You got radioactive
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: cocks hopping around. Let's take a look at these a
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: little bit and see what happens.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: And here's the thing for South Carolina fans, they would
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: gladly take radioactive game cocks if it would make them
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: ten and two.

• 18:18
  Speaker 1: announce it to him. What has gotten under your skin?
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: Most recently?
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: So, I was walking out of Sam's the other day. Boy,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: scouts have a table set up. Okay, popcorn. It's like
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: they're selling popcorn. Okay, I always try to you know,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: I'm more than happy to buy something here for the cause.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: I look around. They've got ye and just a bag
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: of white shutar popcorn. Nothing big, like a normal like
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: you would buy in the store. Right, I'm like, okay,
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: I'll take one of those twenty five dollars.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: What excuse me?
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: How big is this bag?
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Like a normal bag of like anything like you would
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: buy at the grocery store. Okay, I mean, you know,
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: the big bag, but not not like the jumbo bag
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: of popcorn or anything like tall. Yeah, I mean, you know,
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: like the I don't even know how big they are,
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: but just the big bag of chips you would buy
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: at the grocery store.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, Let's compare it to movie popcorn. If you go
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: to the movie theater for popcorn, we're talking small medium.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: I'm a guess, probably a medium.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, so you thought movie popcorn was overpriced, cowboy not
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: cowboys boy scouts are hopping them for twenty five bucks?
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Are they making the popcorn right then and there in
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: front of you. Are they across the street in a
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: field harvesting the corn and then by hand to get
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: a badge, of course, making the popcorn themselves. Wow, So
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: they're just middlemanning this popcorn operation. They're buying it from someplace,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: and then they're doing a drastic markup and reeking in,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: raking in the profits.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Well then and then they're like, oh, it's a donation.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: I'm like no, Like, if you're.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Not fulling me, Like I'm not falling for this like
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: I did with NPR and that damn coffee mug.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: I'm like, you're not your your sugar slinging scout sisters.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: You know they can get away with that, Yeah, yeah.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because they're actually selling drugs. Sugar is a drug.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: They throw out thin minutes. You just give them your card, yep.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: You just hope they don't take all your money. But
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: I'm like, no, y'all, don't go out at the opposite way,
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: say hey, for a minimum donation, pick your bag of popcorn. Okay,
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: that sounds like I'm getting something for my donations.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Fra.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, trying to jack me for uh twenty five dollars
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: for a bag of popcorn.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Well, that is a fun badge that not all boy
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Scouts get. It's the Jackmie badge.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: Ooh, a lot of them get that.
• 21:09
  Speaker 9: Maybe that's why the bags of popcorn are twenty five dollars.
• 21:13
  Speaker 9: They're having to pay off all sorts of lawsuits. You're
• 21:18
  Speaker 9: not just buying a bag of popcorn. You're also purchasing
• 21:21
  Speaker 9: therapy for so many victims.
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: It's the Jackney corn.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: We also have to pay a little bit into the
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: housing for Scout Master Kevin, and by housing I mean jail.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: You're right, note Tramman, twenty five dollars for a bag
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: of popcorn is an absolute ripoff, and they should take
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: a page out of their sugar slinging sisters. Like you said,
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: the girl Scout. At least the popcorn that they're selling
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: combine the two worlds, like, get that popcorn that has
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: like the chocolate and the nuts and clusters and things
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: like that.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: O the drizzle.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I don't know if the boy Scouts are
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: allowed to use drizzle in the settlement.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: You don't want you don't want Jackmi drizzle.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: But I seriously thought about it, and I'm like, that
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: is all about how you frame it. Because had they
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: gone for a twenty dollars donation or whatever, you get
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: pick your popcorn said like movie, you know, like the
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: microwave popcorn, actual jar of popcorn, like you would put
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: in a pan whatever, I'm like, Yeah, if you frame
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: it that way, it seems like, oh, I'm making a donation,
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: I'm getting something from it. Other But the way they
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: did it, it's like, oh, no, you're trying to sell
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: me a bag of popcorn for twenty five bucks. He'll know.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, outside of a SAMs that sells bulk popcorn, twenty
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: five dollars popcorn at Sam's would last you like ten years?
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: Yes. Yeah.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Something else that the boy Scouts need to learn from
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: the Girl Scouts is go to the go to the
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: proper places to sling your wares. Yes, look like the
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Girl Scouts in Colorado and Washington State who sell thinmets
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: out in front of uh weed dispensaries.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, brilliantly.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: At this point, the girl Scouts are nido brown and
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: we're all pooky.

  Speaker 1: what was it you were asking Tray in the break
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: I just.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: Wanted to know if he ended up buying the popcorn.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: No? Oh right, at that point I couldn't get over
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: that again. How you frame it? Because at that point
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: in my mind, I'm they're trying to sell me a
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: bag of popcorn for twenty five bucks.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Whereas had the boy Scouts simply said, we're taking donations
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: to fund all sorts of scouting activities and as a
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: thank you gift, we'll give you this bag of popcorn. Yeah,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: and you might have done.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: That, but you know you can't even like throw them
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: five bucks. They don't take cash. It's all credit.
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: Now yeah, that's what got me once with the Girl Scouts.
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: They were outside of a tomp thumb and I saw
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: them and they're strategically placed, and I'm like, oh, don't
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: make eye contact, don't make eye contact. And I did
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: and they're like, would you like some cookies? And I'm like, hmmm,
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: I don't have any cash on me. I'm like, oh no, no,
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: we take we have a Square Reader. Can do this now,
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: I'm like, you bitches.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they have removed all excuses for you to give
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: them money. Yeah, because there's even like back in the day,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: the Girl Scouts had like someone that I could give change,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: Like I had like one of those uh cash belts,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: and then some had the coin belt thing they could
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: give you change, and then they've evolved now to where
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: we don't have any cash. Well that's okay, that's okay, daddy,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: cause here's the Square Reader. We have Venmo, we have
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: pay Pal cash out. Yeah yeah, and and if you
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: somehow try to get out of that, they'll just steal
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: your h They'll just steal your car.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: So I ended up buying like five boxes of cookies,
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: which I did not need. And I'm not a sweet sky,
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: so I just end up just paying these It's like
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: it's like extortion, Like I just ended up paying these
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: kids off, Like we'll find out where you live.
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go, it's five.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: They really have removed all the friction when it comes
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: to this, you know, fundraising sales activity for the Boy
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Scouts and the Girl Scouts, because it used to be
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: when we were all kids. Like I remember for baseball
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: for our league, we had to go out and sell
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: chocolate bars, which to me is still the dumbest thing
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: in the world to sell in the middle of hot
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: ass summer Texas is here are kids, here's a bunch
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: of boxes of chocolate bars. Why don't you go door
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: to door when it's one hundred and five and see
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: how many you can sell to dumb old people?
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: Okay, and and people bought them. That's the dumber part.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Well, that was also back in the time when people
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: answered their doors. Now, when someone rings the doorbell, everyone
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: dodges behind the couch and says, who's there. In Texas,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: everyone grabs the gun first.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: No, Now the parents post on Facebook, Hey, yes, little
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: Susie selling chocolate yep.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: And that's part of the evolution of the fundraising sales
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: with these kids groups because we all had to do
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: it door to door, and then eventually that became unsafe,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: so then parents started doing it for the kids when
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: they would take the list to work and do the
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: sign ups, and they would do the selling for the
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: kids at work and shaming people, shaming their employees, especially
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: if it was the boss, into buying cookies or popcorn
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: whatever that they were selling. And then it used to
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: be going to the storefront like you guys are saying, well,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: I have any cash. Well, they removed that obstacle because
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: they've got the Square readers. Now they got they take chip,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: they take PayPal. I guarantee you Girl Scouts are taking
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Bitcoin as we speak.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, the Girl Scouts don't sell cookies. They had
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: they distribute them.
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: The cartel, the cartel that is the Girl Scouts.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: It's a network. Really, that's that's brilliant.
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: And that's why the Boy Scouts are bankrupt because they're
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: trying to sell you for twenty five bucks.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: They just they're yeah, they're stuck in the past. Like
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: the most that they'll do is they'll get the Square readers.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: But again, the Girl Scouts, they they they they take Nope,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: they will get their money.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: They wear a parade just like Nino Brown, and they're
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: slinging it.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: After you buy a box like see It, don't want
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: to be it.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: I will say, though, it is really odd to have
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: a girl scout. Ask me, am I my brother's keeper.

• 29:33
  Speaker 1: of today, today is Thursday, August seventh, twenty twenty five.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Let's celebrate today with some birthdays, one of Clinton another
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: let's see Clint Eastwood's daughter one of them, Francesca or
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Francesca not sure how she says it. Eastwood is thirty two.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: So one of Clint Easwood's daughter, Francesca Eastwood, is thirty two.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: She's also an actress. Good old Hollywood nepotism is reigning
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: supreme yet again. So you've got Eastwood with Francesca Eastwood
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: as an actress. She was Molly on Heroes Reborn. She
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: also did a western called Outlaws and Angels. In addition
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: to that, you've also got to believe it's Allison Eastwood.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: She's been in a number of things. Older sister there
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: of Francesca, and then there is it Scott Eastwood. He's
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: got a son too, and he's been in a number
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: of things as well. So the Eastwood name going strong
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: in Hollywood. Other birthdays today, Angels outfielder Mike Trout is
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: thirty four. That kind of makes me feel a little
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: old because I still remember when he first popped into
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: the league and just immediately started destroying it, and how
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: envious I was to see someone with that level of talent.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: It's just freakish and sad that he stayed with the
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: Angels the whole time.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: So sad, I mean not entirely sad, because I mean
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: they've paid him a lot of money in that time,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: but it is sad because California has kept most of it.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Oh well, it's.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: But I am stunned. That was the guy that you
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: thought that would absolutely bolt for one of the major
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: market teams like the Yankees, the Red Sox, something like that.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: But he didn't. He's stayed. He stayed in Anaheim.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: And and it's it's sad because, I mean, he's one
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: of the greatest baseball players we've ever seen, and you
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: know he'll he'll never win a title, he.
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: Will never have a World Series, but he cry himself
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: to sleep in giant bags of money.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: I will say this though, that even even when you
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: do have, like if you want to cosplay Scrooge McDuck,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: which he could, he's got that amount of money. It's
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: great and it feels nice, but as a competitive individual,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: it will always eat at him if he does not
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: win a title. Now, granted, he could wipe his tears
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: with bags of money, but it still will sting a
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: little bit, especially when you think about other people that
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: were a fraction of the talent that he is that
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: walk around with rings. Because you know that for some
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: of the guys that have been greats in their sports.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: Let's use one of the Let's use a great example.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Dan Marino one of the best quarterbacks of all time
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: and never won a Super Bowl. Meanwhile, Trent Dilfer is
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: running around with one. There's no question who's the better player,
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: who's the better quarterback. But Trent gets to say I
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: got one, and you know, Dan Marino has to kind
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: of suck it, and he can cry himself to sleep on,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: you know, piles of isotonor gloves, but at least he
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: has as.
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: Ventura and Romo can just take his slip on sketchers
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: and run away.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Is he still good to you guys? Like, do you
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: still think Romo's a fun watch when he's calling football games?
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: Or is he waned on you the way he has
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: a number of people.
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: I think he's a genius, Like he calls the play
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: before it happens, Like that's really kind of cool, But
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: he doesn't have the charm for the personality of like
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: a Joe Buck or an Aikman.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: But interesting, I'm I'm kind of lukewarm on Romo. Like
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: at first I thought it was really cool, especially how
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: often he would be accurate and the thing that I
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: like about him doing that is it's so different than
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: any of the other players that any of the other
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: players turn commentators. Yeah, I don't know if Troy Aikman
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: could do that at the same level Romo could simply
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: because the game has changed since for when Aikman played
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: versus Tony mm hmm. But I guarantee you with Peyton Manning,
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Eli Manning, if those guys wanted to, they could easily
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: telegraph all those places.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Have you Have you watched their simulcast that huh Yeah,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: they've been doing it for a couple of years. They
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: do a whole Monday night football.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, I know that they do the show.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: I just didn't know if they were doing similar to Tony,
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: like they're basically saying, Okay, they're probably gonna throw the
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: slantle left here.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: They do it all the time. And Aikman, I mean,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: it's if statistically and and the NFL was totally different,
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: but statistically Aikman is such a mediocre quarterback.
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: Mm hm m hm.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Now again, and this is my knock with Jerry is
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Jerry was great when there was no salary cap. He
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: created the salary cap and it has forever hamstrung him
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: because he's never figured out how to get around it.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: It is pretty impressive to tie the anchor to your
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: own leg and then throw it in the ocean. But
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: that's exactly what Jerry John is done.
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: But also Aikman's just I mean, you can watch it.
• 35:03
  Speaker 5: He's hammered most of the time.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: You know what, if I was him, I would be
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: because imagine having the level of ability he did in
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: his body. Yeah, and thinking had he just been born
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: ten years later. Can you imagine Troy Aikman running the
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Rams offense of the early two thousands versus the Cowboys
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: offense of the nineties. Can you imagine Aikman running an
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: offense similar to what gets played today? Yeah, oh my god,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: it would be I don't even I'm not even sure
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: if it would be fair. They may have to like
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: shoot him in the leg before the game, just to
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: try to make it even for everybody else.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: He's doing plenty of shots by himself, don't worry about.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: But that is one of those times where I really
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: do think about. Man, if you took this guy from
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: his era and put him in the current era with
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: all the advancements and everything, I mean, his physical ability.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, Romo broke all his records, but Romo's physical
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: ability pales in comparison to Aikman's. If you had Aikman
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: running the same offense Romo did, they'd have five they'd
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: have five titles.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: Okay, I don't know about that.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, well, we'll never know.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: Ever, Eikman wasn't the most mobile of quarterbacks.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he was not.
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: I think that's where the term lumbering came from.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: That was true because Romo a lot of the times
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: he was running for his life because at times his
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: offensive line was questionable at best.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And then Aikman was just like there was a
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: great story.
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: I think it was Richie Wit that did it where
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: he put the wrong content tax in and still won
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: a Super Bowl and couldn't see. So that's how that
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: was back in the day.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: What it probably was is that he put you know,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: like you said, he put the wrong contacts in. He
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: probably put his normal contacts in as opposed to the
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: ones that have the radical in it. So we can

  Speaker 1: Thank you, Trey, and thank you to you for sharing
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: the show. All right, So earlier today we talked actually
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: quite a lot about the Boy Scouts the Girl Scouts
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: and the items that they sell and how different they
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: are and they're different approaches. I'm now going to segue
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: that conversation into America's ten most hated foods. The way
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do that is, I bet you that
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: if the Girl Scouts applied their methods to any of
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: these food items that are hated most by Americans, I
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: still think they would outsell the Boy Scouts popcorn. All right,
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: So here we go. I have for you now the
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: ten most hated foods in America. You guys want to
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: try to guess some of these.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Liver in most huh what is it?
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Trey liver?
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: Oh, number two.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: Liver is the second most hated food in America. Fifty
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: five percent of people in this survey said.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Salisbury steak.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: Chitlins.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: There you go trade. Chitland's ninth most hated food in America.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: Some people speculate they'd be higher on the list if
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: more people knew what they actually were. For those that
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: don't know, Chitlin's are pig guts, pig intestines, intestines?
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, hagis is a Scottish thing, so I
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: don't think that would make it.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't know. Are gizzards in the same
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: category as livery? Uh?
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: I think that would be different. But that did not
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: make this list, coming in at number ten of the
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: the most hated foods in America sushi. Thirty eight percent
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: of people in this survey said they hate sushi, while
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: keeping in mind twenty three percent of people in the
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: survey love it. So I will contend sushi's kind of
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: a polarizing thing to me. That's either a food you
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: either love it or you hate it me. I love sushi.
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: Oh my god. Oh.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Are Brussels sprouts on the list?
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Actually no, And I'm surprised by that because I would
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: think they would be. But those have gotten kind of
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: cool in recent years. Chefs were able to actually make
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Brussels sprouts taste good, which is, honestly, if you think
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: about it, a true sign of a chef is taking
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: something that someone hates and pouring enough bacon grease on
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: it that they like it.
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: But they're also hybrids. Now it's not the same Brussels
• 40:45
  Speaker 5: sprouts like when we were kids.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know about that, because every Brussels sprout that
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: my mother ever boiled smelled like ass. And that was
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: another secret of the chefs is just don't boil. Don't
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: boil the Brussels sprouts.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Number nine was Chitlin's number eight. Blue cheese. Thirty of
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: people in this survey said they hate blue cheese.
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: I love it. I can't do it, yep, Tray, are.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: You a blue cheese guy?
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: It depends that is like just on it on its
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: own blue cheese. Probably not. It's usually a little like
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: I'll take a gargonzola over a blue cheese a little milder. Yeah,
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: but like salad dressing if it's not overpowering. Yes on
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: certain items, Buffalo wings. I'll take a ranch over blue
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: cheese every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: Hey, there you go. It's a good man right there.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: Tara, my wife, She'll will buy blue cheese at the store,
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: like the little package of it, and she'll just eat
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: it straight. She loves the pungent stuff like she'll like
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: she loves pickles. She loves blue cheese. If it may
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: if there's a food item that turns her face that
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: guy from the Bitter Beer Face commercials from back in
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: the day, she loves it.
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: Interesting.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Number seven oysters Forty two percent of people in
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: America said yeah to oysters. That's another thing that I like.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: I like oysters. Caviar m Forty three percent of people
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: said they hate caviard. I'm surprised that many people in
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: the survey have had caviard.
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: Number five squid I do like some tentacles. I like squid.
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Same, And that's one of the things I miss from
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: the Loon, the legendary bar in Dallas where Trey and
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: I did some serious damage and Raj you did too.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: They had the calamari that I like. It's not just
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: the little tubes the rings. It is the rings.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, they had the rings, and they would
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: have the whole little, you know, little thing.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the legs, a little body.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: And that was one of the reasons I liked ordering
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: the kalamari at the Loon, was because my wife liked
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: the little ringlets, you know, the little tube portions. She
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: didn't like the legs and stuff. I did, so all
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: those are mine.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: Oh that's good. Yeah.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: Number five tofu forty six percent of people said that, yeah,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: tofood grows. Uh. Tofu's fine because it's really just it's
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: just a sponge at the end of the day. So
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: you throw it in whatever already tastes good. It's gonna
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: taste like that. It's just there.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: Number three sardines fifty two percent of people hate or
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: dislike sardines. Actually not bad on a cracker. A little
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: bit of mustard, oh god.
• 43:33
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Number two liver trade you guess that. And number one
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: fifty six percent of people in this survey said they
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: absolutely hate or dislike and jovies.
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever had them.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with them. I mean they're usually ground up
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: in a proper Caesar addressing.
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: Oh then I have yeah, okay.
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: I mean I've had them on pizza and they're e it,
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: they taste fine.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I can't do it.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: It's also the packaging, you know, because I mean, you know,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: an chovi says food little salty, little fishy. Not everyone
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: wants that on something. But if you get a really
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: attractive woman and you put her on a salad, you'll
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: eat that. And if we're being honest, it's a similar flavor.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: So think about that the next time you're with someone
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: that says they really really really love anchovies on their pizza.
