0:21
Welcome inside the treehouse time believe your worries outside and join me. Dan ol'
0:25
mally, Trade Trenholm and Raz Sharman for episode sixty two. Thank you for
0:35
joining us. So I need to just kick all the normal pleasantries to the
0:44
curb and we need to discuss some of the most jarring news I have I
0:49
think ever heard in my forty four years on this planet. All Right,
1:00
Snoop Dogg says he's giving up smoke. Yeah, I read, uh,
1:06
I read read the tragic news this morning that came up and one of my
1:10
bulletins on my on my phone, and uh, I thought it was one
1:12
of those like like those death hoaks. I when you hear like so and
1:17
So's died, it's not real. But then uh you know, uh kind
1:22
of I can kind of see like he I think he got to a point
1:25
where he couldn't get higher, but he Uh yeah, I've I've heard the
1:38
stories about people smoking with Snoop. I've heard a few stories where it's the
1:45
highest they've ever been mm hmm. And he was fine, And I think
1:49
that's I think that's what the problem is is he's like he's now gotten the
1:55
people around him as high as they could get and now there's no one.
1:59
There's no one left. I think he he smoked himself out of smoke it.
2:05
He's actually sort of like sort of like trade did with alcohol, right,
2:10
except he's still had a lot of money and fame and everything. But
2:15
he's quit before, Like this isn't the first time he's done this. So
2:21
I and the man, huh, yeah, did he quit before? He
2:24
quit before for a little bit. Uh, I forgot it was some I
2:30
want to say it was someone like from Earth, Wind and Fire. I
2:32
know it's random, but that that taught to him and he decided he gave
2:36
it up for a while and then he started up again. But also,
2:39
you know M. Snoop is married to his high school you know sweetheart,
2:45
and he has seven grandkids now and maybe he's just thinks he needs to be
2:47
a better example. Oh maybe. I mean he also coaches his or he
2:53
did for a while. He coached his kids, uh football team like that
2:59
they that was the thing he was doing. And yeah, maybe it is.
3:01
He's gotten older and wiser, and uh, I would like to see,
3:06
uh what a like in my head, he he has he stopped smoking,
3:13
and he wakes up and is like I was on a show with Martha
3:15
Stewart. Yeah, yeah, I woke up from a coma for like fifty
3:23
years and wondered what did I miss? I mean it really if you want
3:27
to take it as a case study, just just fascinating. Is you know,
3:34
this guy was the face of gangs, murder, gangster rap, Calvin
3:39
was it Burns Brotus, Calvin Brotus, you know, entrial for murder,
3:45
you know after you know, he came out, you know, with and
3:49
got big and everything else, and he was the f you know, now
3:52
he's doing commercials with the whitest of white women and they're best friends, like
3:57
yeah, and he does sketchers commerce. Yeah. I mean it's the same
4:01
thing. Like going back to this, it's like the same thing with uh
4:06
with with the ice cube ice cue was and they were all in that same
4:10
crew. They were all crips from the same part of uh Long Beach,
4:15
Compton, and now they're all like they all live in the hills and they
4:20
all live in you know, they they do hills stuff, which is you
4:26
have PTA's and you have homeowners associations. You know. The people that are
4:30
still cripping are still cripping. Uh, these guys got their money. Like
4:33
I again, like when I said I would run into ice Cube, it
4:36
was at the CVS. It wasn't the CVS in Compton. It was the
4:41
CVS and Encino, like right down the street from where Michael Jackson, like
4:45
the Jackson five lived. Uh. And then they all still live there.
4:48
Now whoever's still alive is still there now there. I've driven past their Havenhurst
4:54
house, so they're all still there. They're not doing Compton stuff. So
4:59
when he's like when you're like, hey, he's you know, he's he
5:01
was still smoking smoking great we I mean he was the best weed ever And
5:05
he's like, yeah, I want to smoke and I want to learn how
5:08
to make a a krem breulet from Martha Stewart because I'm high. It really
5:14
is. It really is one of the greatest American stories from Compton to the
5:16
Hamptons. Yes, that's exactly right. Uh. And so yeah, I
5:21
mean I I believe that he I think that he will stop for a while
5:27
again and be like, yeah, I it's just who I am and it's
5:30
uh and it works for me. So I'm going to start again. Maybe
5:33
it's a reset. So it could be like you were saying, he has
5:39
smoked so much that he cannot possibly get any higher. So the only way
5:45
to then ever enjoy it again, if he so chose, would be to
5:48
stop for a long period of time and then start over at a at a
5:53
lower threshold where he might actually enjoy it again. Yeah, that's what that's
5:59
what my I would do. That that makes sense, right, Like you're
6:03
spending that much money on it, and I'm sure it's not cheap, and
6:06
I'm sure it's really good, and I'm sure it's California, so it's all
6:11
from dispensaries or you know, he has probably has his own grow house and
6:15
and it's really good and it's hydroponic and all the good stuff. And he's
6:20
just like, I can't I can't get higher. Yeah, go ahead,
6:27
Drey. Or maybe maybe he just looked at Willie Nelson and he goes,
6:30
man, I don't want to end up looking like that, like an old
6:34
white woman. You don't know what long term effects are. That's true.
6:43
Maybe maybe maybe Willie Nelson was originally also from Compton or Long Beach. Yes,
6:48
I remember when Willie Nelson was a poor black child in Compton. Maybe
6:57
that was maybe that was the intervention that got to Snoop Dogg that was led
7:02
by Willie Nelson saying, Hey, I used to be you. You keep
7:13
it up, I'm your future. I did love Snoops statement that he released
7:20
on Instagram, a black and white photo of himself sort of prayer, hands
7:27
to his mouth, looking off center, looking emotional and pensive, and the
7:33
statement reads, after much consideration in conversation with my family, I've decided to
7:40
give up smoke. Please respect my privacy at this time. At then,
7:44
Simon, I love how he throws in, please respect my privacy at this
7:49
time, like it's a celebrity divorce, which I guess in a way it
7:54
kind of is. I would imagine he's been more faithful to marijuana than he's
7:58
been to his high school suite art. Maybe. I mean, you have
8:07
to understand this is a tragic loss for all of us now it actually is.
8:15
There are some serious economic implications here because he is synonymous with marijuana for
8:20
so much of his life. A statement like this, newsmaking like this.
8:28
He's a longtime advocate of marijuana. He's fifty years old. He started his
8:31
own line of marijuana products, Leafs by Snoop in twenty fifteen. Four years
8:37
later, an Israeli startup that promotes homegrown marijuana signed him as a brand ambassador
8:43
in twenty nineteen Hell's. He also famously smoked a joint while walking the red
8:48
carpet at the MTV Movie Awards in twenty twenty one, and claimed to smoke
8:52
eighty one joints a day. He is my spik, he said he was
8:58
cutting down on smoking becoming a grandfather, That's what he said. Earlier this
9:01
year, he told The Daily Mail that he wants to be more aware of
9:05
his life, of his lifestyle choices, because he wants to see his grandchildren
9:09
grow up. So I mean, going back to the economic side of things,
9:13
that this actually does play a bit of a role in the marijuana industry
9:18
as a whole. When you have the guy that's probably one of your most
9:22
famous spokespeople and ambassadors and yeah, whatever else, whatever else, whatever title
9:31
you want to put on czar or whatever, king of weed, it's you
9:35
know, I imagine, you know, like if if marijuana was traded on
9:39
the Stock Exchange, I would imagine there would have been a fluctuation today,
9:43
Yes, today, there would have been a market drop on such a devastating
9:48
news to that industry, for sure. I'm sure there's dispensaries. I'm sure
9:54
there's dispensaries in Los Angeles right now that are like, we're not going to
9:58
make We're not going to make rent. That's exactly what I was thinking,
10:03
because you got a guy who's saying that he smokes eighty one joints a day.
10:05
That is going to put a serious dint into local dispensaries. Similarly,
10:09
what would happen to Saint Thomas When Tara and I moved to Saint John.
10:15
There are a couple of bars that we're worried about not being there when we
10:18
get back. But that actually is a legitimate thing you think about. It's
10:24
like, okay, well you know a lot of people you know. Is
10:26
it Is it a sign that he's finally necessarily needing to mature? But if
10:31
he gives up the smoke, will other people do it also? And therefore
10:35
a hit on the marijuana economy. Yes, he put a hit. The
10:41
marijuana industry took a hit because he's no longer taking them. That's what it
10:45
is. So but yeah, I mean, I would love to read the
10:50
news tomorrow and be like Mexico bankrupt subhead. Now we're really not paying for
10:58
that, or build it now, we're not sending anything over Snoop stopped.
11:09
There's no room in the budget. Just go ahead and build it. There's
11:13
nothing. What's the point? You just cut to Mexico and they're just like
11:18
they're just filling in tunnels like we don't need to We don't need to go
11:22
back anymore, Snoop quid. They're putting on suits and ties and updating their
11:28
LinkedIn profiles. They got a resume builder software on a computer that says you
11:39
have sales experience but to one client. I know, and that's why I'm
11:43
here now. So turns out I really needed to diversify. Well that's great.
11:58
Uh. He just completely bankrupted the eat industry, just single handedly.
12:01
It was eighty one I mean eighty one a day times three hundred and sixty
12:05
five. Let's just be honest with you hard. Yeah, money, he
12:09
literally killed this industry. Like now everybody's gonna legalize it. It doesn't matter.
12:13
Now you gotta you gotta, you gotta figure out how to get that
12:16
money back. Uh. But good for good for sup Uh. I don't
12:20
think he's gonna lie. He picked the wrong time in history to stop being
12:24
high. Like, I don't think he's gonna like what he sees when he
12:30
sobers up, Like, and how did it take for that much weed to
12:33
get out of your system? He might die before he's not high, that's
12:39
true. He could be dead for like thirty years and they still maybe they
12:43
take they pluck a piece of hair off his head from out of his uh
12:48
uh casket and he still would not pass a thirty years after the fact of
12:56
him dying. Yeah, I think he's gonna be I think I think it
13:01
takes like twenty four hours to clear your system, but it can like it
13:05
can they can still detective, but like eighty one joints a day. You're
13:09
he's gonna be high till next year. So we're to the end of next
13:13
year. So maybe that's what excuse me. Maybe that's what he wants to
13:16
do, is be like I want to give my New Year's resolution is to
13:20
be not high in twenty twenty four and see, and I think maybe this
13:24
is actually maybe this is one of the largest altruistic achievements of his life,
13:31
because he said he wants to be around and more aware of his grandchildren.
13:39
Right, Yeah, So maybe what he's doing is he's giving up eighty one
13:41
joints a day, so there's a little bit left for his grandchildren to be
13:46
able to smoke. Me he quit smoking, so future generations could he quit
13:56
smoking just so he'd have time to do something else, Like maybe he just
14:03
wants to grow a tomato plant. What's on the agenda today? Snoop Hi,
14:09
Okay, I think that actually would make a great Netflix documentary, Snoop
14:18
Dogg. What am I going to do with all this newfound free time?
14:22
Snoop Dogg? Now what, Snoop Dogg? There's twenty four hours in a
14:26
day? Since when? Yeah? I mean, when you're smoking eighty one
14:33
joints a day, you're not going by the regular twenty four hour clock that
14:37
the rest of us do. Yeah, And here's the solution is simple.
14:41
Like you said, he wants to get a little more clarity, and he
14:43
wants to see you know whatever. I just think the minute he accidentally stumbles
14:48
across the next Republican debates, he'll start smoking again. That'll be just because
14:58
I don't want to see this, or or in about thirty days, he's
15:07
going to start a new line of you know edible Snoop gummy gums. Yeah,
15:13
maybe he stops smoking and he's just going to chocolates. Yeah, he
15:20
said he's stop smoke. He did. That's right, Tray. He says
15:24
I'm giving up smoke. He didn't say he's given up being high. He
15:28
didn't say he's given up you know, the the edible gummies or the sweet
15:31
treats. Yeah. Maybe maybe we're finally getting the culmination of that unholy alliance
15:37
between Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart Gourmet gummies. Yeah, oh yeah, I
15:46
could, I would go, I would These are my These are my gummies
15:50
right there. These are the wheat gummies. Are those legal in Texas?
15:54
They are absolutely not? Oh you aren't you something? Well, I'm just
16:03
saying, I mean I'm not. I didn't. I didn't get it here,
16:06
thank you. FedEx also's fault. Yeah, that's another thing we got
16:11
to keep in mind, because you know, Snoop Dogg, chances are you
16:14
know, he's probably having it brought to him, so FedEx may have a
16:18
stock drop. This is yeah, that's the fact. And this is also
16:21
another one. And this I and I know this to be true. He
16:23
has a guy that he is employed that rolls his joints. Clearly that man
16:30
that guy worked forty hours worked for That guy worked forty hours a day.
16:47
I guess he's going to be uh in line with the Mexicans updating his LinkedIn
16:52
file. Yeah, so no, we got this guy who's out of a
17:00
job, so now the unemployment is gonna go up. I'm telling you,
17:06
like, this is devastating news because you don't need and you don't need to
17:10
hire a guy to unpeel your gummy. Uh but he him and Kat Williams
17:17
both have a guy that rolls their joints. So maybe Kat's guy gets too
17:21
old and then this guy can get a job. I don't know how it's
17:22
gonna work, but uh, the for sure there Maybe that's the loss that
17:30
he's talking about when he's like, please respect our privacy. Is the loss
17:33
of this man's livelihood and job as Snoops what it is? I want to
17:40
I now need to get on social media and find Snoop's joint roller guy to
17:42
see what his public statement is. Yeah, I just want to know how
17:47
you get the job, Like, like you walk in into just a Snoop
17:49
is like and there's just weed and rolling papers on the table and he watches
17:52
you do it, and he's like, nah, man, how is that
17:57
not a reality show? We haves like Top Chef and you know, say
18:03
yes to the dress. Yeah, it seems like a like a like a
18:07
slam Dunk show, say yes to the joint or top roller or rolling for
18:11
Snoop. Do be with Snoopy. You gotta be careful then, because that
18:22
sounds like something that kids would want to watch. Yeah, that had to
18:30
have been, you know, because that guy's probably been on the payroll for
18:33
decades. I mean his kids. You know, that guy's uncle something for
18:44
I'd love it if his name was actually Uncle something, because nobody can remember
18:48
his name from the girl. Visit us Onlinehouse on Air Dunk this week at

wearing a backwards hat which has the Cowboys Love Dallas Cowboys star on it.
21:56

22:11
That's not a figurative thing, yeah, because that also happens. Yeah,
22:18
it's you know my dad. You know, my dad was a vegetarian,
22:21
and my mom and myself ate everything like it was like with the exception my
22:26
my mom didn't eat beef because you know, she just the good in the
22:30
winter that just didn't eat, but ate everything else. And then my dad
22:33
was like, yeah, you all want to go you want to go to
22:36
Taco Bell, Like, no, we sure don't. We're gonna go to
22:37
Black I, P and E check it like a good family. So I
22:45
understand his his pain. So any chance I can get to get him out
22:49
to buy him some wings, I'm like, here's some a class proteins my
22:52
brother. Here we go enjoy that. We also have a very exciting announcement
22:57
we need to make before we move on to other silliness here in the treehouse.
23:02
And that is on Saturday, December ninth. Fore like I need a
23:07
like sis to happen here. Do you not have do not have any music?
23:12
Not anything? See it's it's it's it's a a murky thing to play
23:18
music during podcasts because then they you know, the people that own those music,
23:23
own that music, want you to then pay for it, and we
23:26
don't have that kind of money, gotcha. So that's why, like people
23:30
will be like, good, bring back the original show intro. Well,
23:33
I'd love to, but I don't want William Orbit's uh, you know,
23:37
people coming to get us for using it because we could use it on the
23:41
radio because we had something called bm My asscap. You're paying royalties for that
23:44
stuff. We didn't pay that the radio companies did on the on the podcasting
23:48
front. You got to pay for it or you get sued, right right.
23:56
That's not really an alarm or an alert, but it kind of.
23:59
But I do like it. Not crickets. It's not a rim shot.
24:03
That's scary music. That's a bad sound. It's like Luke Bryan open mm
24:11
hmm. See what else I got on here? M That sounds like,
24:18
hey, let me get your attention. Okay, that's not right, Yeah,
24:33
okay, yeah, there you go a lot of happy people. What's
24:37
in the box? That's a good one. And maybe that one. Oh
24:45
it's the Unsolved Mysteries theme song. I'm not sure if I can use that
24:48
because that might get a suit as well. Are you ready to have the
24:51
scared out of you. I forgot we had that. That's also a good
24:55
one too. Yeah, that's the Halloween stuff. Okay, we're gonna go
25:04
with that one. Here we go, ahh we go. Yeah. On
25:07
Saturday, December ninth, I am very happy to announce we are doing a
25:15
treehouse road show. But not just in a treehouse roadshow. No, no,
25:19
not like the first two. Although the first two were a lot of
25:22
fun. This will be a very special treehouse roadshow. In fact, it
25:29
will be a Treehouse Christmas road Show, happening Saturday, December ninth from four
25:37
to seven pm at Shaker Tins Midtown location. That is North Dallas off the
25:45
toll Way and six thirty five. It's Tollay and Alpha Ish. It's just
25:48
on the north side, across the street from the Galleria off of Alpha.
25:53
It is the Shaker Tins Midtown location. For info, go to Shakertins dot
25:57
com. We will be there Saturday, December night, four to seven pm
26:02
four a live Treehouse road show. We'll be taping the show. Come enjoy
26:07
it, have some drinks, have some food, watch us do our thing
26:11
on in person. And Raj has said that he thinks it to be a
26:19
good time to roast me, and I'm not still sure how I feel about
26:23
that, because I don't like being the center of attention. I don't even
26:26
like my birthday being sung to me. So I'm really not sure how to
26:29
respond to this. Yes, I do like the idea of having something else
26:33
to do at the event. Yeah, the roast of Dan O'Malley. I
26:37
think that's got a nice ring to it. And you know, I think
26:41
there's a nice way to celebrate the holidays is with your friends taking a massive
26:48
dump on you and so, and keeping with the holiday traditions of that,
26:56
it will be the roast of Dan O'Malley. So come join us. We're
26:59
gonna have a lot of people come through, uh, friends of the shows,
27:03
comedians that are friends, and uh. At the end, Dan will
27:07

28:10
You're getting a big might as well get the big chief tablet while you're
28:15
got some husky jeans coming. I got uh, I got the big red
28:22
pencil with your name on it. Yeah, it's gonna it's gonna be it's
28:26
gonna be a fun time to be had with all I'm trying to find the
28:29
other Dan. If I can get to him by uh, by the show,
28:33
we'll have what could have been. You show up, we'll see.
28:37
Wow, it's gonna be really embarrassing if he's way more successful than me.
28:48
Yes, that's the downside of it, We're still I'm still trying to find
28:52
him, but we'll see. Yeah, that would be pretty rough, dan
28:55
if I did. By the way, have I loved my big Chief tablet
28:57
when I was in kindergarten? Yeah? You I love. I loved kids
29:06
like that that that was that was adorable, like tracing the letters out and
29:08
had the little the little connected the like alphabet stuff. And I was like,
29:14
oh, rookies, I did that at two h Yeah. So just
29:19
in a room full of daans. Uh you you were the gifted kid in
29:27
kindergarten. Uh yeah, I was was just weird, man, I didn't
29:32
I missed out on a lot of like a lot of life moments. I
29:33
think that's why I'm a big kid now. Like I was walking at seven
29:37
months old, uh so I never crawled, so I never had that experience.
29:42
And then I was reading and writing by three. So I was that
29:47
Indian kid that was like on a beanback chair reading while everybody else was doing
29:49
the tracing the letters the alphabet or whatever. And they just give me a
29:53
book and be like, oho, sit over there. You can always do
29:56
this stuff. And I'm like, I know, nerd, I get it.
30:00
I thought you were going to say, you're the Indian kid like slobbering
30:03
on a bean bag while the other ones were doing open heart surgery at four.
30:07
That's in India. I was in school here. Ah, I forgot
30:14
that's right. You were in the SQUI for that. Let's not get carried
30:18
away. I was in a far better place. It was called Pleasant Grove.
30:23
So anyway, very excited, very very excited. We will be doing
30:26
another Treehouse road show third of the year, last of the year for damn
30:32
Sure at the Shaker Tins in North Dallas slash Addison area, the Galleria area.
30:37
That's kind of what they call it the Midtown location, which is a
30:41
good way to find it. So you go to shaker Tins dot com.
30:42
You can click on the Midtown location. You get all the info you need
30:45
right there to find it, or just throw it into Google as well.
30:48
But Saturday, December ninth, four to seven pm, a very merry Treehouse
30:53
road Show Christmas party plus my friend's making of me Yes, and we are
31:02
also because we're not doing enough as it is, we are also doing a
31:07
toy drive that day. That day, what we'd love for you to do
31:11
is to bring a I forget the name of the company that Tara told me,
31:17
but we're doing a toy drive benefiting the Warren Center, which is just
31:21
a couple of miles west of the Shakerton's location. The Warren Center is a
31:26
place that helps for children with special needs, especially from birth to age three.
31:33
So they love developmental toys to help spur along their curiosities and and you
31:40
know, development and everything. So we'll get more info out to you about
31:42
that, so and the best toys to get elect the like sort of like
31:45
the educational kind of ones. But whatever you get, they will put to
31:49
good use. So a toy drive benefiting the Warren Center as well. At
31:55
the Treehouse Christmas road Show Saturday, December ninth at Shaker TWI. It's four
32:00
to seven pm, so it's first time we're doing it on a Saturday,
32:01
so we don't have necessarily worry about rush hour getting in the way. There
32:06
might be a little bit of Galleria traffic to go through, but that's no
32:08
big deal. That's not going to be that bad that second weekend in December,
32:13
so come have fun with us at Shakerton Saturday, December ninth, four
32:15
to seven pm. And it feared like me, and you want to know
32:21
what the parking situation's like, because if you have to make two laps,
32:24
you're leaving. That's I understand your pain. Plenty plenty. I've been by
32:30
there to check it out. There's plenty of free parking right there, right
32:36
next to the venue, and then directly behind it is another parking lot that's
32:39
completely open for parking, so you don't have to worry about it, so
32:44
you don't have to go if there's no parking, we're leaving. Plenty of
32:46
parking. Good to know, so don't have to worry about making two laps
32:50
and leaving. You just make the one parking, come inside and have fun.
32:52
I'm also open any other sort of festive ideas, like I do we
32:55
want to do a white elephant gift exchange with all of it on the show.
33:00
Any other sort of Christmas festivities. There's a book that I read two
33:07
Christmases ago on the radio that I need to see if I still have it.
33:10
I think that's one of the few things I grabbed out of my office
33:13
at iHeart when before we got let go, because I knew it was I
33:19
knew the I knew the guillotine was about to drop, So I ran off
33:22
with you know, the good stuff that I wanted out of the office,
33:23
and and the book that I think is a great story time read for children
33:29
of all ages, Hookers and Blow. I think maybe a special reading with
33:36
that will be will be done. Yeah, can I just get this out
33:39
of the way. It's kind of much like the Christmas Vacation and the other
33:45
movies that you guys referenced that I don't know because Hindu not big Christmas thing.
33:52
What is a white elephant thing? What is it? What is it?
33:57
It's basically where you get together with your friends and family and you do
34:02
a gift exchange, and then you create some really frightening rules to then take
34:08
those gifts back and take gifts from other people who wanted them, so then
34:13
they're sad. That's kind of it in a nutshell, gotcha? So that's
34:17
that sounds like no fun. But now you buy, you buy odd gifts
34:22
and then let's say Dan picks one, he's the first, and then the
34:29
next person has the option to take that from Dan or pick a gift,
34:32
okay, and then if I take Dan's and he has to go back to
34:36
the pile, and and so and sometimes there's good gifts and like then there's
34:39
there's good gifts and there's silly gifts, and so it's kind of you know,
34:44
who ends up with what at the end. They're actually fun, right,
34:45
but there can be a lot of fun. But they could also end
34:49
up with a brawl in the parking lot. So who knows. But don't
34:52
I mean, wouldn't for it to work out, wouldn't you have to have
34:55
even numbers? Like we're the three of us, so wouldn't it work out?
35:00
Like we can just keep exchanging until we get the same thing, like
35:04
the they have other people participating, Okay, because you'd have to because you'd
35:08
have to have even numbers. If I'm right, Yeah, I think I
35:10
think Jerry will be there are our dear friend and even it's just just it
35:20
it ends at some point how I told you in the parking lot. Yeah,
35:29
you white people are silly. So yeah, come to Shakers in Saturday,
35:34
December ninth, four to seven pm Christmas road show with all of us,
35:37
a toy drive benefiting the Warrant Center, the Roast of Me, and
35:42
an eventual parking lot brawl. Okay, I'm in. I mean, I
35:49
don't think you can get more Christmas than that. End up on the news
35:54
just outside the galleria, gifts, flying gift rat people just covered in it,
36:00
litter, tinsel ah, hookers in blow, hookers and hookers and blow.
36:07
It's a North Dallas tradition. Absolutely Yeah. Visit us online at Treehouseonair
36:16
dot com. Let's talk to Damiel Cook and COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration eight three
36:25
three. COOKDFW is the phone number for your free roof inspection. The website
36:29
cookdfw dot com. The common thing that we talked about on the show is,
36:34
of course our Dallas Cowboys. And I'm going to assume Daniel that being
36:37
a good North Texas man yourself, that you're probably a Cowboys fan right,
36:43
born and bred Cowboys fan all the way back to the seventies. I remember
36:46
going to the old Stadium many many times. I am you know what,
36:51
I just I'm one of those fanatic fans. I enjoyed the older stadium.
36:54
I just liked going there. I didn't care if it was raining, if
36:58
it was cold. I just like that was football. And now we got
37:01
all this plushness. And so when I go to at and T Stay or
37:05
Jerry World, it's just like, this is why the tickets are one thousand
37:08
dollars each. Now, yeah, you know I remember going to the games
37:12
back in the eighties and nineties and the tickets were like twelve bucks. Yeah
37:15
that's like I missed that so much. But yeah, and you were and
37:19
you were freezing cold. One of the coldest days of my life was at
37:22
Texas Stadium a couple of years ago. The Minnesota Old Dome Stadium, and
37:25
this may be more than a couple of years ago. It fell through because
37:29
there's so much snow on it. It got too much weight and the roof
37:31
collapsed and that was pro I think they had another statement built after that.
37:35
But anyway, that just shows I mean, the elements in all those areas
37:37
could really be a lot for a structure, and people underestimate the way to
37:42
snow when you start getting a lot of snow and a structure and it just
37:45
stays there for days and days and days. The sub the sublaminate and all
37:49
the different structure. The structure itself has just got so much pressure built up
37:52
on it. When Minnesota had the Old Stadium, they should have called you
37:55
for, you know, a consultation, and they would have found out that
37:59
it was a bad idea to use that material to cover a you know,
38:01
a billion dollar team. What you can do to save yourself? The same
38:06
embarrassment of the Minnesota Vikings is called Daniel Cook from Cook DFLW Roofing and Restoration
38:09
eight three three cook DFDLB for that free roof inspection and the website COOKDFW dot
38:15
com. It's the street house two one, four three six eight thirty eight

38:23
does. Talk to Jacqueline now from Brooks Plumbing the website Brooks Plumbing Texas dot
38:27
com. So, Jacqueline, you're a you're gonna be on vacation, and
38:30

38:39
me and my wife we are gonna do some stuff. We got a day
38:44
to do it. We're gonna tear the island up. But does that mean
38:45
Brooks Plumbing in North Texas stops when you party? Oh no, absolutely not.
38:52
My company has paid for my Wi Fi package on my cruise. I'm
38:54
gonna have my laptop with me. It will be business as usual. What's
38:59
the time difference? I don't actually even know is there too? There is
39:01
a big time difference here. So the US Virgin Islands is on Atlantic Standard
39:07
time and does not observe daylight savings anything. So right now I am two
39:13
hours ahead of Texas. That to me, that won't make a big difference.
39:15
I was in the office at six am Texas time today. I left
39:19
a little early. Like I said, I'm getting old. I'm going to
39:21
the hair salon to have the gray died out of my hair before I come
39:23
see Tara, because she's just a beauty queen and I don't want to look
39:28
like a scrub on vacation. So but I'll have my work phone, I'll
39:30
have my laptop. And the fact of the matter is that I especially will
39:34
never stop working because if I don't do payroll, the guys will not come
39:37
to work the next day. And so I take care of my customers.
39:43
I take care of my guys. I just want everyone to know I just
39:45

41:07
steamrolling into the holidays. Raja saw that you posted something the other day about
41:15
nine turkeys. Yeah, where is that? So we uh in our in
41:22
your old hood, my my newest hood. Uh here in the Addison Carrollton
41:30
or or Addison Carlton adjacent at the ninety nine cent store that was on uh
41:37
that is on on Frankfurt and Marsh. It is next to the Aldi,
41:44
and so we shop at the Aldi. And I usually run in to the
41:50
nine nine cent store because they have fun stuff that you just don't see anywhere
41:52
else, mostly because I don't know if it's allowed to be sold in actual
41:57
stores or or whatever the case may be. So I went in and I
42:02
saw the sign. It's like, you know for that, they're getting into
42:06
the Black Friday stuff as well, and they're like, we have the early
42:09
Black Friday stuff. All these things are going to be ninety nine cents.
42:13
So I saw blueberries and I was like, oh great, because I make
42:15
my smoothies in the morning, my protein shakes in the morning, and I
42:21
like to have a little mix. They had some mango there the other days,
42:23
I got a mango, and then next to the blueberries for ninety nine
42:28
cents for the little one pound thing of blueberries. It said for the first
42:32
fifty customers on the fifteenth, which I think was Wednesday, on the fifteenth
42:39
of November, the first fifty customers get a ninety nine cent full whole turkey.
42:49
And I had to read it a few times for me to understand that
42:52
this was real. I thought it might be ninety nine cents. He's got
42:58
he's he's doing this spock, I like, he just went like full vulcan,
43:01
Like, mmm, this does not compete. Yeah, yeah, And
43:07
I thought maybe it was nine nine cents a pound, which is still a
43:08
really good deal. Yeah, that'd be a great and it said nope,
43:13
it was ninety nine cents. And so I think I know why Trey's eyebrows
43:16
shot up like that, because he was physically showing what I was feeling inside,
43:22
And that is, if a turkey is ninety nine cent, is that
43:25
the turkey you want? Right? And that's that, you know, kind
43:30
of my thought. And I also was like, I don't think if I'm
43:34
having to look at the sign over and over again to make sure that this
43:37
is right. Other people will too. So I dropped my girlfriend's daughter off
43:43
at school and I said, I'm gonna I'm gonna take some video that you
43:45
can show your friends at lunch of these people going thats insane over. It's
43:52
gonna be a crowd out there. There are people are gonna be fighting to
43:55
get into the the ninety nine cent store as the doors open to get they're
44:00
one dollar turkey. Yeah, And I was like, I'm just going for
44:04
the blueberries, like that would be that would make my day. I'll get
44:07
two things, the blueberries and be set for the week. You would not
44:09
win on supermarket sweep. I would not very simple. I'm like, they
44:15
got almond milk and blueberries. I'm like, that's what that bananas, bananas,
44:21
blueberry strawberries. That's what goes into mind. Now, if it was
44:23
a ninety nine cent turkey at Whole Foods or Central Market h e B.
44:30
If they got ninety nine cent turkeys, then you're gonna have people duken it
44:35
out trying to get their hands on those good ass turkeys. I think it
44:39
would be anywhere that has a dollar turkey would would be would be packed.
44:46
And I pull into the parking lot and I see nobody and I'm like,
44:52
well, that's interesting, okay. And I walk in and the guy he's
44:57
got the wristbands because you have to have a wristband. He gives you a
45:00
wristband. You take that wristband to the cashier and she gives you your turkey.
45:06
And I walk in and he goes. He was super excited. He
45:08
goes, are you here for that? Because I'm assuming he thought there would
45:12
be a massive crop and there was nothing like it. And he said,
45:16
are you here for the turkey? And I go blueberries and he goes,
45:21
oh, and you could see the joy on his face. Leave and he's
45:23
like, yeah, sorry, man, they didn't send us any blueberries.
45:29
I was like they didn't. I was like, well then I'll okay,
45:31
I'll do the turkey. Sure. And he gave me the wristband and I
45:35
went and they had a brand new thing of like mini watermelon said come through
45:38
and those were on sale for their thing to substitute for the blueberries. So
45:44
it was ninety nine cents. I was like, I'll get that and I'll
45:45
have that with lunch. And I go to the counter and this lady hands
45:51
me a frozen twenty pound Gold Harvest brand turkey. That's a big turkey,
46:00
yes, And she goes, that'll be two dollars, and I was like,
46:06
it was a dollar for the water mini watermelon and then a dollar for
46:09
a twenty pound Gold Harvest turkey. And I looked it up because I had
46:15
time. I was in the car. I was like, I looked it
46:17
up. It's a solid brand. They had thirty pounds. This was the
46:21
push to get their turkeys flying out the nope, I mean no pun intent,
46:25
but flying out the door. It was to do a promotion to the
46:30
first fifty turkeys because they had little thirty pallets of frozen turkeys ready to god
46:37
for that day. Now, did you check the turkey for all the normal
46:39
limbs and things like? It's not one of those that's got like three legs
46:44
or four wings. No, no, no, no, I mean all
46:46
it had ten fingers and toes, just like every turkey that you want.
46:52
I don't think turkey's are supposed to have any fingers. Raj oh, Well,
46:57
then this is a special turkey. I think we now know why the
47:02
turkey's ninety nine cents Goldarvis, Tiny, Friend Chernobyl an exclusion of flavors Thanksgiving.
