0:24
It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh with us inside the treehouse.
0:30
Today is Friday, June one, t first, Yeah, twenty twenty
0:40
four. Very excited on a Friday. Fridays are always a good feeling day
0:46
for everybody, honestly. And this is true because since I no longer work
0:50
Monday through Friday, my schedule now is just all of it. It's seven
0:57
days a week, or it's whatever day. I just you know, we
0:59
end up doing stuff. Friday still feels good. I don't care. Maybe
1:03
it's just from you know, two and a half decades of of knowing that
1:08
Friday was Friday and that it meant something. Now that I don't work a
1:12
traditional schedule, I still appreciate Friday, even if I got to work on
1:18
Saturday. I mean, everybody's working for the weekend. Like they had a
1:23
song for us back then, Oh lover boy, I know in a soft
1:27
a soft spot in the treehouse for that band, yep, but yeah,
1:32
I mean they had a song for it, like you uh, you knew
1:36
like it was that was a big deal, happy like you know, and
1:40
it was like then they then they implemented uh, casual Fridays or you could
1:46
wear like a jeans and that was supposed to be like, oh progressive.
1:52
It was interesting too because the ironic thing was for the radio side of Stuff
1:56
with with Us is actual Friday. When that started in the eighties was when
2:04
dudes started dressing like radio DJs jeans and a Hawaiian shirt. Yeah, we
2:09
still had to do jeans, button down tie. See to me, that
2:15
always looks like college professor, teacher or something. Yeah, I felt like
2:19
I was teaching like inner city youth math like I mean started in real estate.
2:25
Yeah, you had to wear a suit every day and then and so
2:29
then by the late nineties it kind of casual Friday became a thing. And
2:31
even then it was you know, maybe khakis and a button down you still
2:38
uh and then yeah, slowly then jeans and a button down. But and
2:43
then the early two thousands it moved into cargoes in a in alo. Now
2:47
I saw the progression, right, so when we when we implement, because
2:50
I was telling my parents, I'm like, hey, you know, the
2:52
other people are doing this casual Friday, and they're like, oh, okay,
2:55
I guess we can. And it was about everybody saw us to have
2:59
a dresser and tie. So we all looked like the you know, the
3:02
teacher on Saved by the Bell or you know, not otun we all look
3:07
like gil on. And then it's like, hey, you know, but
3:12
you know they don't have to wear times. Okay, well we'll talk it
3:15
over. And then the tie was gone. And then we got staff like
3:19
company polos. So we had the logo for the company on the polo and
3:23
we had multiple colors of those. And then the the button downs and it
3:27
was a little more you know, you felt like, hey, this is
3:29
kind of the weekend's coming up, Like I don't have to wear the monkey
3:31
suit. Uh and then uh so I saw the progression and then like when
3:36
when all those uh you know, Google and Amazon and Microsoft were like,
3:40
where what you want? We have a pool table in here, we got
3:43
ping pong tables and do your office however you want to do it. My
3:46
parents were like, we gave you polos, that's enough bringing in TVs and
3:53
pool tables. Yeah. This, I mean, casual Friday is now digressed,
3:58
the point where your employers are just begging you to come in. They're
4:03
very casual about coming in. Yeah, and if we're being honest, that
4:06
that to me is the ideal work environment, yeah, is if you don't
4:12
have to come into the office, then by god, why would you because
4:15
because honestly, it's I mean, there are certain there are certain jobs,
4:19
certain industries. You're just gonna have to You're gonna have to bite it and
4:23
you're gonna have to go in, or maybe you go in then you buy
4:25
it, whatever the case. But I'm I'm a firm work from home believer.
4:30
If you don't have to be in the office, yeah, then then
4:34
you you shouldn't have to. You shouldn't be forced to. Yeah. But
4:40
like you know, if you work like you know in it, like I
4:44
don't think you need to come in. But I don't want my cardiologist on
4:46
a zoom meeting, you know what I mean. Yeah, I want to
4:49
go to my physical I want my doctor to physically touch me. It's very
4:56
it's very awkward when you do the turn and cough with your own hand.
5:00
It's just the same. Yeah, in a zoom meeting, I feel like
5:02
I'm I feel like it's an only fans at that point, and the money
5:06
is going the wrong way. Yeah, you know, there's a problem if
5:12
he starts throwing one dollar bills at his screen. Doc doc Hello, Hello,
5:18
I'm in the other tab. Oh sorry, I was on my cam
5:23
soda. Yeah, but yeah, if you don't have to go into an
5:29
like, imagine how much money corporations could save. It's like, hey,
5:31
everybody worked them up. I know there's the social aspect of it because I
5:36
had friends during coked like it COVID in La like really screwed people up,
5:42
like I saw it, Like I saw people like literally suffering through like massive
5:46
depression because they didn't have anybody to talk to anymore. And I'm like,
5:49
well, you're still having your like company meetings and stuff like that, but
5:53
like yeah, but there was no like water cooler talk, and there was
5:56
no you know, going by somebody's office and swinging in and chatting for a
5:59
few minutes before do you want back to your desk? So it really fed
6:01
them up, Like getn't messed with their brains. So people need that social
6:05
interaction. I'm of the type where I don't need to have that, yes,
6:11
And that type of stuff ends up being more of a distraction, and
6:15
so I'd rather just eliminate all that and be efficient. But the other and
6:23
this keeps coming back, but this is the problem, you know, the
6:26
companies are having Now is hard enough getting gen Z on time, doing things
6:31
on time on a schedule in the office. And now what employers are found
6:35
is, especially with gen Z working from home, then they're just like,
6:39
oh, I'll get it to you when I get it to you. Yes,
6:42
And it doesn't work that way. Man, you have such a heart
6:46
on for gen Z. My goodness. Yeah, I mean I don't walking
6:49
around smacking them in the head with it and everything. Maybe they don't want
6:55
to come to the office and I have to go to sensitivity training. Yeah,
7:00
because you'veen hitting them in the face all heart. It's got to be
7:01
sensitive. And speaking of that real quick coming up in today's show, if
7:09
you are large enough to be beating people with with that, perhaps you've won
7:15
the genetic lottery. We'll be talking about genetic lottery. We'll be talking about
7:18
genetic lottery winners and Arson gone awry, plus birthdays all in today's episode of
7:25
The Treehouse. Back to the work from home and the gen Z type angle
7:29
of it. The way I see it is, if the job is fine
7:34
to be filled work from home, go for it, and then if the
7:39
employee sucks, get rid of they don't do it. Right and whatever.
7:42
On the other hand, from an age standpoint, if I, as good
7:46
employee number one, can proficiently do my work from wherever the hell I'm allowed,
7:54
you know, anywhere on the planet, unless you're you know, geographically
7:59
limitted do to licensing or something, then by god, do it if you've
8:03
if you've earned it type of thing. And if you suck at it,
8:05
then you don't get to do it anymore. Yeah. My ex wife Millennial,
8:09
right, so ten years younger than me. She when COVID hit,
8:13
She's out of the office. But her thing was she would get out of
8:16
the house and go for a walk and that's when she would call because it
8:20
was usually during lunch time, maybe take an extended lunch. She'd call people
8:24
that were in the office that used to work and they'd take the lunch at
8:26
the same time, so they have that interaction. And she was fine with
8:30
that, and me, I'm like, I don't have to talk to anybody
8:33
and I can just sit here and watch like we still have TV, right,
8:37
we still have Netflix. That didn't go away, right, Like no,
8:39
no, no, that's all staying. I'm like, okay, so
8:43
what's the hiccup? Like I can see like I understand like for some people,
8:48
like they took day drinking became a problem. Day drinking extended in the
8:52
night drinking, and then then became morning drinking. And I saw that too,
8:56
Well what's the song? How does it go? You call it a
9:00
drinking problem. I call it a solution. Yeah, But I did see
9:05
that, Like I saw people like start like, hey, you know,
9:09
it's two o'clock and I have you know, offices closed cocktail time and I'm
9:13
like, okay, well that'll spill over in the noon, and that'll spill
9:15
back down to eleven and then now you've got a problem. Now you're in
9:20
an AA meeting well on zoom. But no, I was like I would
9:28
at least go, you know what, it's six o'clock, Okay, now
9:31
we can have you know, well, you know, we'll start making dinner,
9:33
we can have some drinks whatever, and that kind of like I understood
9:37
that aspect. And we would do a happy hour with the Dallas Comics.
9:41
We'd get on Zoom and everybody would pour themselves a drink and we would just
9:43
bs about what was going on and you know whatever, and so we had
9:48
that interaction. But I mean, I saw, I understand the work from
9:52
home, but some people need that weird, yes, And to me those
9:54
people there needs to be a home base for those people to come in and
9:58
do that. If you if you're good at doing your job remotely, then
10:01
then by god, let me do that, especially when and this is what
10:05
I can't stand, and I'll get off my high horse on and then we'll
10:07
jump over into me asking you guys how fermifest was since I got stuck in
10:11
effing Florida. Is when the CEOs say this doesn't working, everyone's got to
10:16
come back to work, blah blah blah blah blah. And they released that
10:20
via their jet and it's like, how often are you in the office,
10:22
mister ceo? How often are you at your desk doing an actual job type
10:28
stuff? I'm I said, in the jet, not flying it. But
10:39
that to me is a big I'm just big anti hypocrisy. If if you're
10:43
a company and you're a CEO that's demanding your employees being the office, then
10:46
so should you. Yes, I agree with that. You know what I
10:50
I I just just dawned on me. I missed the day. So you're
10:54
just slapping millennials around for just being whiny bitches. Those are the good old
11:01
days. Yeah, but in hindsight now, I mean they're not. They
11:03
don't seem so whiny now, No, Like you know, you know,
11:07
here's that they grew up and they realized that, you know, the world
11:11
is different than they thought. Yes, I got other of Yeah. There
11:16
was a millennial friend of mine and we had this She was bitching about this
11:20
and that and how the worlds were, and I go, wait till you
11:24
start paying taxes, wait till you really understand that, and then then come
11:28
back and talk to me. And you know, about five years later,
11:31
she's like, yeah, you're right. That text thing. It really does
11:33
put a different perspective on things like sure does. I'd like to do a
11:39
quick point out here that Trey referencing the good old days of slapping around millennials
11:43
will be a out of context promo for the show. I'm okay with that.
11:52
Yeah, yeah, all right. So now now that we've covered that,
11:56
we've covered our work from home bases, as we all work from home
11:58
here on the show, which is one of the things I love. That's
12:01
to me, it's the ideal. It's to do what I do that I
12:05
feel that I do well and It's what I love and do it from wherever
12:11
I want to be, wherever I want to and we are able to do
12:16
that here in the Trios, and I'm very grateful for it. And because
12:18
of the show, we have forged excellent relationships with various entities in North Texas,
12:24
one of which is Pause in the city. And last weekend was Vermafest
12:30
twenty twenty four. I wasn't going to go. Then airfare looked really,
12:35
really good. I was like, all right, let's go, especially because
12:37
we had a couple of other work things in there that we could do while
12:41
I was in town, in addition to Vermafest, you know, with Drowning
12:46
pull and everything at the studio with the factory. I was like, all
12:48
right, let's do it. I'm gonna I'm gonna come to town. We'll
12:50
do this, We'll have some fun. Then I got stuck in Florida because
12:54
of weather and airlines being incompetent, So how to go? How was it?
13:01
Was it fun? I saw the photo of you guys were drowning pool,
13:03
and I felt attacked. If I can steal a gen z uh triggered,
13:09
I was. I was extremely triggered by your photo. With drowning pool.
13:13
It was loud, Dan, it was very loud, very loud.
13:18
That is that is absolutely a gen X answer, raj Uh. Let's couple
13:22
that with your additional old man uh barometer by which you judge events. How
13:28
is the parking? Uh? I we got very lucky. H Trey and
13:33
I were pulling. We were looking at sponsor and I'm like, I bet
13:35
you they have parking for us at the venue. They didn't. Oh,
13:43
not a whole lot of big picture thinkers there no, not at all.
13:46
And as we're like, let's call and find out if there is parking,
13:50
as we were finding out there sure isn't. Uh. This there was a
13:54
there was like I guess an art fest or something was happening, like a
13:58
street fair was happening, and some people it was a June team festival.
14:01
This is what it was. Oh, okay, I'm sorry, I mean
14:03
a street festival that's every weekend in Deep Elm. Yeah. And so the
14:07
car that was right I mean just caddy corner from the venue, I mean
14:11
maybe fifteen yards to the backstage door. There was a couple that moved their
14:18
car and it was right there. So we parked right. We just got
14:22
very lucky, and so you didn't have to make two laps and they can
14:24
go home. No, no, no, yeah, I told you,
14:28
I'll give you two laps and then I'm not coming. I remember, That's
14:31
why I asked, Yep, two laps and then I'm going home. The
14:35
first event at Three Nations Brewery very hot. They did have misters, which
14:45
I think are a great idea if they actually get to you. But they
14:52
also had like big giant fans that were blowing them in every other direction except
14:56
for where people were. They have a very nice setup out there. They
15:03
have an inside air conditioning place, they have kind of a covered patio,
15:07
then they have a big outside area. They even have the old one of
15:11
the old big carousels from Sandy Lake Park they put on the patio and that's
15:16
like they're one of the outdoor covers type of things. But but I will
15:22
say this, uh concert, it was good. The the Mad Mexicans my
15:30
new favorite band. They are awesome. Imagine beastie boys, rage against the
15:35
machine, yeah and cypress along with a border dispute mixed in funny and and
15:43
they put on like they are high energy. They are, you know,
15:48
all all over the stage and then I was talking to one of the guys
15:52
afterwards and I was like, I said, what do you all? How
15:54
often do y'all play? I said, y'all are awesome? He goes,
15:56
He goes, we only do like two three shows a year. Now we're
16:00
old. I I feel your brother. I think I looked at I think
16:04
I looked at Trey at one point and I go, I can feel my
16:07
hair move. Yeah, that's uh. And then I mean we you know,
16:11
we're old. Like when when they started doing sound check Tray and I
16:14
walked over to Scott, his friend who was bartending on, like, we
16:17
need earplugs. That is a level of old that is very unfortunate. It's
16:23
one of those levels of old that you're glad your younger self never had to
16:30
witness. And that is asking them at the sound check to turn down the
16:33
volume. We we turned down the volume in our own ears with the plugs.
16:40
And I remember going to concerts back in the day and yeah, I
16:41
didn't have ear plugs. But that ringing lasted for the rest of the night.
16:47
This was great, Like we got to hear the music, it was
16:48
fun, we could talk back and forth. It was good. Everybody from
16:52
top to Bottom from Earworm War hoog vein all those sanctioned to Drowning Pool,
17:00
Mad Mexicans, everybody put on a great show and there and there was a
17:03
lot of love for Verma and then so that was it was definitely you know,
17:08
a truth to matter is some of those bands from what I gathered a
17:12
kind of semi retired and they all came out just because they knew Verma loved
17:18
him and wanted to do it. So sanction sanction, Like Verma walked into
17:22
Lone Star. He was that happened to be at Uh you could tand liquid
17:26
stand back in the day and walk past, walked into Lone Star and saw
17:30
this band and he became their manager and that's why they performed that night.
17:36
I don't I think they still you know, the same thing, like a
17:37
couple of shows a year maybe, but he managed them for years and years
17:42
and years. So that was like legitimately his band that was on stage.
17:45
So that was pretty cool because I was like, because I was, you
17:48
know, train now we're going back and forth like how do you want us
17:49
to bring you up? Like what do you want us to say for you?
17:52
And the guy from Santion's like we were Mark Verma's band, and I
17:56
was like, no, I got you. We're all in this together,
17:57
buddy, and he's like, no, no, he was our manager.
18:00
I'm like, oh, okay, my bad. I thought we were like
18:03
like a unity thing and they're like, no, he managed us, and
18:07
I thought that was really cool. And then drowning pool just blew the roof
18:12
off the place. So it went. It went really really well. I'm
18:17
glad to hear it. I was sad to miss it. Uh, but
18:21
it was a lot better than than the alternative, Yeah, which which was
18:26
sitting in Florida. Yes, yeah, because I believe I'd still because I'm
18:32
actually still technically waiting on my call back from Spirit customer service. Yeah.
18:37
Yeah, I'm still waiting on mine from when I was going to Reno from
18:40
Delta. So uh, there's they're still in the process of issuing me a
18:44
refund. They told me that every day. See I at least got mine,
18:48
Yeah, oh I did, so not exactly, so I didn't get
18:51
an actual refund because this is this is the sad, terrible part. In
18:56
addition to Spirit canceling my trip mid trip, yeah, I had them because
19:04
they couldn't rebook me on the flight the very next morning because they had given
19:10
it to everybody else already, even though the flight that I was on originally
19:12
that was supposed to be the make good flight and they didn't give it to
19:15
me, but whatever. So the make good flight for me wasn't going to
19:18
get in until late Saturday afternoon, which would not have worked for the Vermafest
19:22
event. And by the way, that flight was going to take me through
19:26
New York. So I said, can you just send me home on the
19:30
next flight. They said, yes, we can do that. Well,
19:33
because I did that, customer service started telling Tara, because Tara is part
19:38
Pitbull, and she went after Spirit Airlines the next day and was like,
19:44
hey, you owe us money. Like no, he he. They tried
19:51
saying that, well, no, he made the flight. He's back home.
19:53
You're like, no, no, we paid for four flights and he
19:57
took two. They were trying to say, well, he left home and
20:03
he's back home, so that counts. And no. Also, somewhere in
20:07
the middle of all of that they actually said and they said this to me
20:11
as well on the text. When I said, hey, my flight,
20:12
I cancel blah blah blah. The response back was actually showing here that it's
20:15
boarding. I'm like, the it is. Yeah, So somewhere in the
20:21
customer service system they were showing my flight is boarding, even though the actual
20:25
flight was obviously canceled to everybody on the ground. So there's a series disconnected
20:30
with the customer service. And then when TERA's trying to get at them,
20:33
they said, well, in our system, it says that the flight left.
20:37
And she's like, it doesn't matter, he wasn't on it. And
20:38
then they said, well, since he wasn't on that flight, he changed
20:41
his itinerary back to this. It's like no, that was the only options
20:47
that were presented to him. Long story short, they didn't want to refund
20:52
two of the flights that I had. Two of the additions I was supposed
20:55
to take four flights took two. They didn't want to completely refund those.
20:57
So now we just got a credit with have to use within a year.
21:00
Okay, so you can use that to come to Dallas for the live event.
21:06
Yes, there we haven't that we haven't yet mentioned. Oh okay,
21:14
hypothetical live event. Now, I'll tell you about it here. Visit us
21:25
online at freehouse on air dot com. Eight three three Cook df W that's
21:37
the phone number you need to call for your free roof inspection. The website
21:41
COOKDFW dot com. The free roof inspection is extremely important, especially as we're
21:47
starting to make the shift from super heavy spring storm season in North Texas into
21:52
super hot summer. But we still get storms that pop up, so you
21:56
need to have Daniel and his team come out check your roof to see how
21:59
it failed through the heavy storm season and if it's ready for the next one,
22:03
right Daniel, Yeah, Dan, we're starting to see a ton of
22:06
calls coming in from leaks that people had no idea they had. So now
22:11
you know, we we have a few about a week now, dry weather,
22:15
it's starting to get hot. They're cranking it up here. We go
22:18
into summer officially today that we're doing this recording, it is the longest day
22:23
of the year summer sultice. So we're gonna have a long hot day to
22:29
day and many more after this. But yeah, we need to get up
22:32
here on these roofs check them out. You know, there's a lot of
22:34
issues that we're finding from shingles being missing in areas that you can't see from
22:41
the ground, flashings that have got blown up, from the high winds.
22:45
You know, parts of the roof that got tore off. So these are
22:48

24:02
some music. We get some announcement music. Hang on, Okay, that's
24:11

24:23
party after all. There we go. That's not bad. Oh that's traffic
24:29
music though. Okay, yeah, we can't play all that. Plus that's
24:34
old. Now, that seems kind of lame. Hang on, all right,
24:42
that's not really exciting fun. That's more of an ending, not a
24:48

show. Yeah, all right, here we go. It is announcement time
25:22
inside the Treehouse on Saturday, July twenty seventh. Barring any other flight issues
25:29
or weather interruptions, or general incompetence on either our part or the venue of
25:37
the event, we will be doing the Treehouse Pool Party twenty twenty four.
25:45
Yeah, laying there. Treehouse Pool Party twenty twenty four. Yeah, yeah,
25:56
suck at this anyway. The Treehouse Pool Party twenty twenty four is probably
26:03
happening at the Fraternal Order of Eagles Pool in Dallas. Not everyone in North
26:11
Texas is aware of this hidden gym, but if you've lived in Dallas proper
26:15
for more than one summer, you may have heard of it, especially if
26:21
where you lived did not have a pool, because it obviously gets hot in
26:26
Texas and sometimes you can't sneak in to condo communities or apartment complexes into their
26:33
pools because of guards and gates and things, so sometimes you have to find
26:37
a pool to hang out at. And that is where the Fraternal Order of
26:41
Eagles in Dallas comes to save the day. The Foe Pool. Oh many,
26:48
many, many wonderful times, and now we're going to have one ourselves.
26:52
The Treehouse Podcast Pool Party twenty twenty four will be happening at the Fraternal
26:57
Order of Eagles Pool in Dallas, also just you know, colloquially known as
27:03
the Foe. So yeah, we'll have a Treehouse pool party. That'll be
27:07
Saturday, July twenty seventh, the day after Trey's birthday. So it'll be
27:14
a few different things all rolled into one. It'll be a pool party,
27:17
it'll be a celebration of Trey's birthday, which, if I'm not mistaken,
27:21
we'll make fifty. So what better way than to celebrate being ushered into the
27:26
age of aarp than by hanging out at a pool with a bunch of twenty
27:32
thirty and forty somethings. Yeah, and I didn't know what this place was,
27:37
and you guys told me what I think you The last time you were
27:41
in town, you and Tara had gone to this place. I had never
27:44
heard about it. I was having lunch a dinner at oakd and my buddy
27:48
Barton, who was a bartender there, I said, have you heard of
27:51
this place called the Fraternado? Is like the Foe, It's the greatest place
27:55
in the world. Yes. I went the following weekend, saw one of
27:57
my old old friends who happens to be one of the members there. And
28:03
just for the listening public, you should go. That's the best poor drinks
28:11
for the least amount of money. Yes, and that's that's why if you
28:18
talked you mentioned pretty much anyone in the service industry. Yes, they are
28:22
familiar with it. And Monday's are there the service industry day there and and
28:29
a wonderful ship show to behold. It is it is can I can I
28:33
say epic and not sound like I like just pulling that out of my ass.
28:40
It's an epic play like that. When I got my bill, I
28:44
kind of giggled and I was like, well, this can't be right.
28:47
Uh. And my buddy Eric, who is a member there, just kind
28:49
of leaned over my shoulders like what do you got. I was like,
28:52
this can't be right, and he's like, oh, it is. And
28:55
I was like, how do you become a member here? And there's a
28:59
lot, there's a whole process to become a member. I don't have that
29:02
much time to donate that much time to community service hours is how you get
29:06
in. But I will contribute my few bucks at the door to get in
29:11
to spend the day. And it is to everybody listening go by and check
29:17
it out. And they have actually they have made some really nice improvements to
29:21
it. Oh yeah, for sure. So they always they each year they
29:25
add to it. So they open the pool up to the public in the
29:29
summertime. And like Trey said, I mean they're open seven days a week
29:33
barring any sort of interruption for whatever other reason. But they're open seven days
29:38
a week with that pool all summer long. And on Saturday July twenty seventh,
29:44
we will be infiltrating the Foe Pool in Dallas. We will be inside
29:49
by the pool. We will start our event around one and yes, there
29:56
will be an entry fee. You can pay cash at the door. There's
30:00
card reader that they do there at the door. Is well, that's what
30:03
everyone including us pays to get into the pool for the public access. And
30:07
once you're in, you've got lounge chairs, you've got grass area for towels
30:11
and things. You've got a massive pool, you've got one two bars outside,
30:18
a third bar on the inside, concessions for food as well. It's
30:22
a great setup for any day of the summer to hang out at a pool,
30:27
but especially Saturday July twenty seventh with us in the treehouse. So one
30:33
cabanas they can rent too. I think there are cabanas that you can rent.
30:37
You can rent those cabanas which are cool because it's shaded. But it's
30:41
a great thing. It'll be a great fun time for all of us,
30:45
and we will of course for every road show that we do, we will
30:48
be pushing for donations to the Listeners Foundation and hopefully have some merch to sell
30:56
as well. On site some treehouse merch and have a good time in front
31:00
of you, and it'll be a live taping. So yeah, we'll get
31:03
there, do the show, record it, and then that'll drop, you
31:07
know, a few days later for everyone to experience slash Witness. So there
31:11
you have it. Foequal in Dallas, Saturday, July twenty seventh. The
31:15
gate opens at noon. We'll start our stuff around one o'clock. We'll be
31:18
there for the afternoon, hanging out with you, doing the show a little
31:22
bit and having a good old, a good old treehouse time. Mm hmm.
31:26
See what what joy this will bring. Look at what my little f
31:30
up did by me accidentally mentioning this. It's going to bring so much joy.
31:33
All the listeners will hear that and be like, hey, we got
31:36
to get our we gotta get there because it's a there's only a couple of
31:38
hundred people that can that can come, So it's I mean, yeah,
31:42
there is there is an eventual you know, occupancy limit. Yeah. The
31:47
good news is the place doesn't really get kicking with the general public till after
31:51
three o'clock, so the early crowd is going to be mostly us, So
31:53
we'll have h we'll have a good run of the place. When when it's
31:57
when it opens up Saturday, July twenty seven, The doors open at noon.
32:00
We will start our stuff around one o'clock. Treehouse Podcast roadshow at the
32:05
Foweek in Dallas. Yeah, since it is Friday, wrong song? Do
32:14
you not have? No? I can't label them. I can't like,
32:19
I can't change the screen label because there's different banks, so the bank changes.
32:23
And I can't label the buttons because there's different banks on the screen.
32:28
So like I might have a fart on Bank two, but that same button
32:34
on Bank three is going to be you scared at the Haunted House? Gotcha?
32:37
Okay? So, unfortunately, my machine relies on my least least operable
32:46
uh body part, and that's my brain. Yes, it relies on my
32:52
memory to operate at one hundred percent. And that hasn't happened in the high
33:00
school. So no, because that's when I started having my severe head injuries.
33:06
Now, actually no, my first my first severe head trauma was probably
33:09
when I was five. Oh gotcha? I told you guys about that,
33:14
didn't I. No, All right, I'll tell you this really quickly.
33:16
So the kindergarten, it was either it was either pre k or kindergarten.
33:20
I forget which, but it was. I was four or five, Little
33:22
Dandy, four or five. This is when I had my big pencil.
33:28
I didn't have my big pencil in hand for this though, because it was
33:30
recess time. But it was one of those. It was like at a
33:31
church or something. So the class the way the school was set up was
33:36
very odd. I've never seen anything like it since the middle of the area.
33:42
Think of it like a track at a high school. You've got the
33:45
football field in the middle, and the track goes around the outside, right,
33:47
right, Yeah, that's kind of the way this school slash church area
33:51
was set up. You had where the football field would go was just an
33:57
open carpeted flat area rectangle. I think maybe they did basketball or something in
34:01
that area, but that was our recess area. If it was bad weather
34:06
outside, it was in that biggital carpeted area, right. And then on
34:10
the perimeter around the carpeted area where the individual classrooms set up with dividers.
34:15
Okay, so I was on one side of the field and there was a
34:22
large wooden playground thing in the middle of it. Okay, this wooden thing
34:28
was open on two sides, so it was a pass through on one side
34:34
and then on the other side it had wooden bars up and down. I
34:38
have no idea how you're supposed to play with this thing, but that's what
34:42
it was. It was a wood box with bars on two sides and open
34:45
pass through on the other two. So my game that day was going to
34:49
be to just run full speed through the open pass through side through the other
34:54
side. No idea why, but that's the memory in my head. Unfortunately,
34:59
the last time I had played that game, I was shorter and I
35:04
didn't realize it. Oh, so when it came time to play this run
35:10
through the wood box game, I had grown a little bit since the last
35:15
time I played it, and I found out the hard way because little Danny
35:19
Ram's smack forehead first into the two by six that was across the and And
35:27
maybe that explains a lot, because your your vivid memories of this setup is
35:35
but the best memory recalls I've seen out of you. So maybe that was
35:38
the line of demarcation of what you couldn't see it coming towards. You couldn't
35:49
gauge your own head, like, hey man, that looks like that might
35:53
be a little too, boo. That's in my head. That's how I
35:58
was, like, you're running, this is gonna be fun. I think
36:00
I'm a little too. That's a downside of the game where I was just
36:06
once I realized I was too tall to play the game, it was too
36:08
late. Yeah, that's why I could never be I could never be a
36:13
teacher because I would have seen that. I would have kissed my pants laughing,
36:17
because one of your favorite things is seeing people hurt themselves. But I
36:22
just love the ambition of you running like I got this, and like just
36:28
running full speed as I mean, just as fast as you can, and
36:30
then it just stops, like, oh, I would have paid money to
36:37
see that. Yeah, and so and I and I think honestly, and
36:39
this was. This was before obviously TikTok, before YouTube. This was this
36:45
was even before America's Funniest Home Videos, which you would have won, had
36:50
I would have won, had there been security footage of this four or five
36:53
year old boy running full speed thinking he's going to run through the open sides
37:00
of this wooden piece of playground equipment and not realize that since the last time
37:05
he played the game, he had grown a couple of inches and just full
37:07
speed head first into that two by six. But you didn't see it.
37:15
I think you saw it. It was just too late, that's what I'm
37:16
saying, because once I realized I had grown, it was too late,
37:21
oh full speed, Like, yeah you didn't. Were you too young to
37:24
know how to hit the brakes on yourself phone? Like just dig your feet
37:30
into the like digging your heels into the ground and take the l like just
37:32
fall, fall backwards and take the loss instead of just fucking just as hard
37:39
as you can and then start suffering CTE from the age of five or honestly,
37:45
honestly, RAJ, just just duck. So here's what I'm thinking.
37:53
Here's my theory. So I tried to run through, yes, the open
38:01
wooden piece of playground equipment, and I didn't make it because I had grown,
38:09
and so I ran headfirst into this two byst I was clearly a moron
38:20
at the age that this occurred. You had pencil, that's right, That's
38:25
why I had the big pencil with my name on it, so I know
38:28
it was mine, big red picture. Did Danny the day of that event?
38:31
Normal pencil? Right? Uh? No, No, No, the
38:36
day of the event, I had the big pencil. I think what happened
38:37
was I was a horrific moron from birth to incident. So I think what
38:45
happened was like how the Flash got hit by lightning and he gets his powers,
38:51
or Batman's parents get murdered in front of him. That blow to my
38:59
head is what turned the light on, ironically to becoming a smarter individual.
39:07
You hit that and you could use a regular pencil the next day. That's
39:12
exactly what it was. After that, it was a regular number two.
39:15
I was speaking complete sentences and I was the best reader in class. He
39:22
was beating Indian kids. It was that day you learned to not trust to
39:25
actme Box. I like how you were the road Runner and Wiley Coyote the
39:35
same person. You were just tricking yourself into getting hurt. I felt like
39:44
this. I feel like this needs to be some sort of book. I
39:46
write, like the day I got smart, It's like, just imagine what
39:51
Forrest Gump's life would have been like had he done the same thing. The
39:57
day Danny got good. I really was like the next day I was using
40:01
a normal number two pencil and I started going by Dan. He wasn't using
40:06
he wasn't using crayons. He went straight to Matt Pencils, a protractor.
40:13
He went to Daniel and to add Entrey to the memory recall and the detail
40:21
of the story. Uh, the carpet that Iran across was gray. It
40:27
didn't turn red with the river of blood from your well. A few spots
40:32
did, but for the most part the rest was gray. Okay, so
40:37
when this happened, didn't knock you out. I just see a five year
40:49
old knocked out. I don't know what you guys are picturing. I love
40:54
that you're envisioning a five year old knocked out cold in a pool of its
40:58
own blood, and you're laughing. I just see your head like what I'm
41:02
looking at on a five year old body. It just kiss smack right into
41:09
what did you? Did you pass out? Did you? I don't think
41:15
so. I don't think I did. I think I think I stayed conscious
41:19
through the entire process. And did people come running over to I think they
41:24
were all looking around, like what was that noise? That was the first
41:31
call of nine one one for a drive by? Like somebody's shooting at us,
41:36
your son's head? So you smack into Kennedy moment it kind of was.

42:27

42:30
me, I did a really good job for this person. He called me
42:32
out of the blue. It was nighttime. He was, hey, you
42:35
guys were at my house a couple of years ago and you were here for
42:37
insurance and you found XYZ. But because it ended up hurting all the floors
42:43
in the house, we ended up using a general contractor to replace everything,
42:46
including the plumbing leak. And they said, we've just found out that it
42:51
wasn't done right now, it wasn't done to code, and now my new
42:52
hardwood floors from two years ago are buckling and we have to do it again.
42:57
And he said, you know how far can you get here, and
43:00
do you have a remediation team? And while we don't do remediation, which
43:04
is that water removal, I said, I absolutely have a couple teams that
43:07
are open twenty four to seven that'll be there, and we determined that we're
43:13
actually able to save the hardwood floors because the remediation team got there fast enough.

have to be serious, now, okay, I'm with you, Roj.
44:31
I really wish there were security footage of that that I that I could have
44:35
even witness for myself. Yeah, that was traumatic, and you know it
44:38
would have even been better if you're like, no, I was sixteen.
44:44
Now at sixteen, Uh, I did one of the dumber things I did
44:47
in football, and that was I I had butted one of my teammates.
44:52
The problem was he was wearing a helmet and that wasn't I just don't know
44:59
what. We may just have to dedicate an entire episode to all my head
45:01
injuries because I'll fill an hour easy. Yeah, I just want I just
45:06
want to bring in a neurologist, uh, and not one from the island
45:09
that you're on, because clearly I did the neurology exam last year. They
45:14
said it was fine. Is it an island doctor who also it was in
45:17
Dallas? Oh gotcha. Okay, we're gonna, We're gonna get was the
45:21
Indian no neurologist. He said, I was fine. I went to a
45:29
different specialist, he said, I was fine. I'm fine. My wife
45:32
had me tested. Okay, we're gonna, we're gonna. We're gonna get
45:37
you to a buddy of mine who's a good neurologist out here. Here's an
45:40
Indian guy. That's that's who you need to go to. Uh, we
45:45
are getting body scans. Uh, well, we'll come to town next month.
45:49
We're body scans just because you know, healthy, we're getting older.
45:51
It's good. I just get your body scan. Check it, look,
45:53
look at all your guts and make sure there's nothing pre going on that you
45:57
won't find out about until it's too late. Yeah, and where do you
46:01
do that at? I'll send you a link to a place. Okay.
46:06
Cool. We're going to get to birthdays and news here in just a moment,
46:09
but I'm going to share a quick gripe with you about the body scan
46:14
place. Okay, okay. We were looking at two possible places to do
46:17
it, and one place said I'm sorry, but we can't approve this unless
46:28
there's medical necessity for it. Oh that's weird. Yeah. The other place
46:32
is like, we'll take your money and the medical necessity place. My wife's
46:37
on the phone with him, and she says, so, my husband,
46:39
that's me. He's adopted, so he doesn't have any sort of medical history.
46:45
So they were saying, if there's a current issue that needs to be
46:51
checked, or if there's a concern with family history, then we can do
46:55
the scan. Otherwise we can't do it. And she says, well,
46:59
my husband's adopted, so he doesn't know his medical history, which would then
47:04
seem necessary to have the scan so I could then know if something's happening,
47:09
because otherwise I wouldn't know because I don't have a family medical history. When
47:14
that section on the form pops up, you know what I put there with
47:16
family history and medical issues in a yeah, because I don't know. So
47:23
this one scan place said well, sorry, this, you know, we
47:27
have to have a current issue or family history of a family illness that we
47:31
can scan for this, you like, And we're like, okay, we're
47:34
gonna go to the other place now. Yeah, okay, Yeah, that's
47:37
kind of bs. Yeah, and you could put w A and then just
47:42
im put this goes was adopted? Okay, Yeah, I could also put
47:47
on their hh AC hit head as child. I was gonna say, like
47:54
medical history known before the age of five, big pencil? All right,
48:04
birthdays today? Today is fred Day? June twenty first, two, Thy

Also birthday today, Prince William he is forty two today. He will of
48:30
course become king once King Charles kicks it, which I'm not sure what his
48:35
current diagnosis is, but I don't think he's going to live as long as
48:38
Mama did. It's still cancer, yeah, which someone asked me recently,
48:44
Raj, because you have the conspiracy theory that no US president has you know,
48:50
died of cancer. And they said, well, does this, you
48:52
know, go against Raj's conspiracy. So I ask you, right, no
48:57
sitting president, no sitting president has contracted or died of cancer. What you
49:01
sitting president has ever died of a terminal illness? Gotcha? Which I was
49:06
wrong by one because ages ago you mentioned someone who had died from the flu,
49:10
and I walked into this and I said, well, the flu's not
49:14
terminal, to which Dan responded, unless it kills you. I believe that
49:19
was the promo for the week. That's a good moment, and I walked
49:24
right into it. Flu's not terminal, is if it kills you. But
49:30
that was one of those few moments where I could actually see Raj's soul leave
49:35
his body. Yes, I was like, God, damn it. I
49:37
walked into that. It was a proud moment for me. Other birthdays today,
49:43
we've got Chris Pratt from Guardians of the Galaxy the Terminal List on Amazon
49:50
Prime, Lego Superstar. He is forty five today. Chris Pratt forty five.
49:55
One of my current favorite actors. He was also in the New Jurassic
49:59
World, the first of which was a lot of fun. I enjoyed it.
50:01
The ones that came after that, Oh we found another movie you didn't
50:07
like? Yeah, that's the File of four. Yes, yeah, I'm
50:12
in the middle of I'm in the middle of Monkey Man right now. I'll
50:15
let you know how that ends. It's it's I'm gonna watch that today.
50:16
I heard it. It's this is all my buddy tried to put it towards
50:21
to me. He goes, it's like John Wick but Indian dude. I'm
50:22
like, okay, that's you didn't have to say all that just said.
50:27
It's like an Indian version of John Wick. But he's like, Indian dude,
50:30
watch it. I'm like, appreciate it, buddy. What was the
50:35
movie rog was supposed to watch that? We were American Ninja? No,
50:38
no, that that in the in the Terminator No no, no, sorry,
50:42
Predator, Predator too. Yeah, we're gonna watch Predator two and American
50:47
Ninja. Get on that. I will. I will do that and hopefully
50:53
not kill myself after American. I just I feel like I'm contributing to their
51:00
royalties. He's gonna get a check in the mail for like six cents and
51:04
like somebody watched it, so you know what show. I went back and
51:07
started watching just to see if it held up at all. Airwolf Ooh yeah,
51:17
I don't think that held up. It actually surprisingly acting questionable, But
51:24
you know, the helicopter's still cool. It's actually it's okay, you're trying
51:30
to tell me, was it Ernest borgnine who was like the right hand man,
51:34
you're trying to tell me. An eighty show about a super advanced helicopter
51:37
where Ernest borgnine is the expert of the equipment was believable, as opposed to
51:42
the Talking Car with David hassel Off. Okay, we went believable. Okay,
51:49
if you actually go back and watch the beginning, he's fumbling through it.
51:52
He really doesn't know what he's doing. So yeah, yeah, I
51:55
love the eighties. Was the willing suspension of disbelief. I mean, yeah,
51:59
yeah, the whole decade we was just suspension of disbelief for everybody.
52:02
I mean the overplay party, you know, Jan Michael Vincent playing the cello
52:06
on the on the boat dock. Uh that yeah yeah, uh go back
52:14
and watch that. We'll add that to my revisit list. That and as
52:22
the usual suspects. Still a good movie. Oh yeah, that'll always hold
52:27
up. I was lucky enough many many years ago at the improv, it
52:35
was, uh, I just brain farted on his name. Now he's in
52:38
it. Does all the voices you two got findled by Kevin Spacey. No,
52:44
no, but uh he's a comic, does all the voices. It's
52:47
an impressionist. Why am I losing his name now? Kevin Pollack? Kevin
52:52
Pollack And it was very cool, Like he was at the Improv and I
52:54
think it was the only time he's ever been to the Improv, but he
52:58
was at the Addison Club and I went up there and they're like, do
53:00
you want to meet him? I'm like, yeah, So I went back
53:04
there and we started talking to tell him about a big fan of a few
53:07
good men, usual suspect he goes, and he said about the usual suspect
53:10
he goes, It was the best script I've ever read till this day.
53:13
And then he's like, do you want to watch True Lies? Because I'm
53:15
working on my impression of Arnold And I just got to sit there and watch
53:19
him literally work out the impression right there, and it was incredible. That
53:23
same trip that he was in town at the Improv was when he came into
53:28
the radio show Oh Okay and he sat with us for about an hour,
53:31
which was awesome. It was one of the few times that I was really
53:35
excited to meet a celebrity that was on the show, because most of the
53:37
time I wasn't very starstruck. But there were a handful of guests we had
53:42
where I was really excited because I was a genuine fan of what they did.
53:45
Kevin Pollack was one of them, and I got to witness some of
53:49
the finest acting I have ever seen, and it came from Kevin Pollack because
53:53
in that hour, he had the entire studio convinced, especially Russ, that
54:00
they became friends. He even let Russ hold him like a baby for a
54:05
photo right before he left. And then for six months after that meeting,
54:14
he didn't respond to a single text that Russ said. Ah, poor guy.
54:27
I'm not saying it's Kevin Pollock's fault that he drank himself to death.
54:30
I'm just saying it didn't help what a few good men was on the TV.
54:40
Just pause on Pollock's face. All right, a couple of quick news
54:50
stories and we'll get on with our weekend here. So earlier I mentioned hitting
54:55
the genetic lottery, right, So, there was a survey done recently.
55:00
Someone asked did you hit the or did you win the genetic lottery? And
55:07
people started giving examples of how they feel they had hit the genetic lottery.
55:13
Some of the examples that people had mentioned online were someone said, no one
55:16
in their family had gone bald. Someone said their teeth were nearly perfect naturally.
55:22
Some people said they had better than twenty twenty vision. Yeah, I've
55:28
heard that one before. When my friend in La, She's like, I
55:30
have better than twenty twenty vision. I'm like, really, then you should
55:32
see the future. What are you talking about? Like that makes no sense?
55:37
Is it going to rain next week? What do you see? I
55:38
had twenty ten vision until I was forty two. I at one point had
55:45
twenty ten. I think I'm in that. I still don't have glasses,
55:47
knock on wood. I'm just counting down to the days until I inevitably do,
55:52
but so far I don't. So when it comes to eyes and hair,
55:55
I feel like I've won the genetic lottery, but not everywhere because I'm
56:01
five nine, so I didn't hit the genetic height lottery. But I do
56:07
know that people misunderstand the difference between achievement and being fortunate, right, Like,
56:17
if you hit the genetic lottery, being six foot two is not an
56:22
achievement. It's not something you did to get there. It just happened,
56:27
right. It's like I've had I've had friends, you know. I had
56:30
a guy friend one time, he's like, I got a big beamers and
56:34
he's bragging about it. It's like, dude, it's not an achievement.
56:37
It's not something that you worked out for a long time and boom, it
56:39
grew four inches type of thing. I mean, different people have different things
56:45
that they hit the genetic lottery, but it's not an achievement. Like there
56:47
was there was a speech given by a supermodel and she was, I believe,
56:52
speaking as a valedictorian of her graduating class for college, or it was
56:58
some type of situation, valedictorian thesis, whatever it was. She's giving a
57:02
speech talking about how she hit the genetic lottery physically, but everywhere else she's
57:07
had to work for all these things. It opened doors for her because she
57:12
was gorgeous, but she's still had to work at all these other things.
57:15
And she didn't let that be the only thing that, you know, she
57:19
was defined by. And I appreciate when someone can recognize the difference between an
57:23
achievement and something that you're just blessed with. Yeah, the Hymnsworth Brothers,
57:29
that's the genetic lottery. Goddamn right, my god, that's just not fair.
57:34
Yes, Like the way I see things. I think things Nature's supposed
57:38
to come with balance, right, kind of like Star Wars. So in
57:43
my mind, the Hymnsworth brothers are ridiculously good looking and they're ripped and stuff,
57:49
and sure they work at it a little bit to get extra ripped.
57:51
But if those dudes never worked out again, they still look amazing. So
57:54
in my mind, nature needs to balance it out in some way, like
57:58
maybe one of them got like a bit of a tail or, maybe they
58:00
got a micro penis something to balance it out right, just to make it
58:04
fair to everybody else, because it's not fair if Chris Hymsworth is running around
58:07
with nine inches you know, yeah, true, he might be, But
58:12
then again, maybe he's got a tail or a vestigial twin on the tip
58:15
of it. I don't know. But then you look at like Ryan Reynolds
58:19
and then you see his brothers and you're like, oh, he wins,
58:22
yeah, because they did not, And you know it's got to make those
58:24
brothers mad. Yeah, but I'm sure they cry themselves to sleep and all
58:28
the gifts that he's bought him so and they're deadpool jammis that they were gifted,
58:35
but like the most most a gin most of the Baldwins are again like
58:40
very very good looking. I mean, if you look at them back in
58:44
the day. I'm not saying they age gracefully. I'm just saying back in
58:46
the day, there was a time when it's like, Jesus, are they
58:50
all that good looking? And then there was one. It was like,
58:52
Okay, that's the that's the guy who's in all the b movies. We
58:55
get it. There had to be one. That had to be one guy
59:00
didn't have a blockbuster. Yeah, and you mentioned like, uh uh,
59:02
there's I believe there's a third Hymnsworth brother that doesn't look like the two other
59:07
ones. Uh, you guys know the property brothers. Yes, the twins.
59:12
Yes, there's a third brother. He's not a twin, and he's
59:15
he's everything that those two guys are not. I think he's a he is
59:19
he the dentist. I think he's like a dentist or something like that,
59:22
Like he has a regular, like normal job. But then his the twin
59:25
brothers, who are now billionaires by the way, that's amazing. Yeah.
59:30
But yeah, so there's always like you look at you know, I mean,
59:32
there's always somebody in that in the family that you're like, okay,
59:37
well, then that poor guy, Like if like in the Bible it said
59:39
Jesus had brothers, would you really want to be Like that's that's the first
59:43
question everybody. Yeah, so hunts your brother Jesus. Oh, you know
59:45
what, I did some stuff too. I built a cabinet, you know,
59:51
yeah, he actually kept up with the family business. You don't want
59:54
to be Steve Christ, Like you know what I mean, I'm josh for
1:00:00
Christ. What did you do today, cadmetry he fixed her vision? Like,
1:00:07
oh, okay, well that's not fair. I don't know if I've
1:00:09
ever I don't know if I've ever truly realized the irony that Jesus was a
1:00:14
carpenter and he died on two slabs of wood that you've never never thought about
1:00:19
that, I'm like, how insulting is that? And then when people like
1:00:22
I see people in like neighborhoods and that, like they are devout Christians and
1:00:24
that's fine, but they'll have like a cross in the front yard right especially
1:00:30
during Eastern I'm like, do you think that's what he wants to come back
1:00:31
to? Like, hey, by the way, that's what they killed me
1:00:34
on. That's kind of uncool, man, Can we take that? Can
1:00:37
we take that out of the lawn? I appreciate that it's the symbol.
1:00:40
It's the symbol that he died for nds Oh no, Jesus, three alleys
1:00:49
on this one. That's gotta yeah. That would I wouldn't want to come
1:00:52
back to that if that was like and I died in a car accident.
1:00:57
I come back down and they're like, hey, there's the car you died
1:00:59
in. You're an asshole somewhere. It's a little it's a little traumatic.
1:01:06
Still, it's a little it's a little too close to homebody, Let's leave
1:01:12
that alone. It's like ray j has always got to feel like I'm the
1:01:15
one who gave her the dick exactly. Yeah, but she ran with it.
1:01:24
Christian ran rand the retirement. And this story is for Trey. An
1:01:39
arsonist caught himself on fire in his attempt to burn down his ex girlfriend's house.
1:01:50
That's when you see Trey like, oh, stopping, it's like his
1:01:52
hands bandaged up. I don't think that necessarily Trey would be the arsenal in
1:02:00
this type of scenario. I imagine Trey has plenty of ex girlfriends that have
1:02:04
wanted to burn down his home they wanted to burn down. He's got a
1:02:09
lovely home and he and he's a he's a charming fellow. Oh now,
1:02:15
okay, And honestly, Trey's been charming to me the entire time I've known
1:02:21
him. But again, i've you know, Tray and I never dated.
1:02:23
Yeah. Yeah, but then he's got the he's got the crazy women,
1:02:27
uh history, yes, of the crazies. Yeah, so there there there
1:02:32
could be more than one person that would want to That's why he doesn't want
1:02:37
Now, that's why. That's why you don't want to know? Why where
1:02:40
you don't want anybody to know where you live? Oh yeah, that definitely
1:02:45
has something to do with it, because yeah, there's there's a few I've
1:02:50
always said, you know, there's a list of people that they should hope
1:02:52
and pray that I never get a terminal disease because I'm gonna do bad things.
1:02:58
But there's a group of x's that I hope they don't ever get a
1:03:01
terminal disease because I very well may go up and smoke. But what was
1:03:07
that story? We got to look it up. There was a guy who
1:03:09
was diagnosed with terminal cancer and so he I think it's like he killed,
1:03:15
like the he killed somebody or whatever it was to for revenge because he's like,
1:03:21
I'm leaving and he was misdiagnosed and so that was the So that was
1:03:27
the defense was well, he thought he was dying, like that would be
1:03:31
my luck. Sorry, man, but before you go on on a crime
1:03:35
spree, you should at least get a second and depending on the level of
1:03:43
your crimes, maybe a third and a fourth. If you're going to get
1:03:49
the death penalty either way, then let's be sure about it. Yeah,
1:03:54
I've got to look up that story. But yeah, he committed like he
1:03:59
got revenge on somebody that was just absolutely awful to him. And I was
1:04:00
like, that's I've got this diagnosis, I'm months away from dying and did
1:04:06
it and they arrested him. He's like, you can do whatever you want
1:04:10
to. I'm going to die. And then they're like, oops, we
1:04:13
got the wrong file. How bad is your doctor is? How bad is
1:04:17
your doctor? When you go to prison, the prison doctor says that you're
1:04:21
fine, I'll live a long, long life. But I do imagine there's
1:04:32
more to the story. I don't think we have time to get into it.
1:04:34
About the arsonist who caught himself on fire in his attempt to burn down
1:04:39
his ex girlfriend's house. But I did. I immediately immediately thought of you,
1:04:45
Trey. And I also thought that Trey would think about it in a
1:04:50
moment and he'd say, you know what, it's an awful, awful story,
1:04:57
but what did she do? It is an awful story, but I
1:05:10
can guess what she did, all right. Thanks for hanging out with us
