  It's true because I was all over the place yesterday.

• 2:09
  our friend Kelly. And then we were going back to

• 3:18
  Oh my. OK, so dude, we we're we're
• 3:22
  going to leave. OK, the mall.
• 3:25
  OK, we're in the parking garage. OK, We hear the most horrific
• 3:29
  crunching, scraping sounds echoing through the parking lot.
• 3:33
  Somebody hit. Somebody Valley granola bar.
• 3:41
  Damn it, 2 for two days dude got me twice.
• 3:45
  I I wish, I wish that's what was happening.
• 3:48
  It was horrible crunching. I was just eating one.
• 4:01
  OK anyway I truly wish that was what was happening but no didn't
• 4:06
  my car was trying to back out and he's scraping the shit out
• 4:08
  of the black car next to me and he pulled were like oh that guy
• 4:13
  is hitting another car. Like I wasn't sure if he had
• 4:15
  backed out into a car, if he was back hitting the car next and
• 4:18
  what was happening because we were the aisle over.
• 4:22
  I turn around, he's behind us and I see this and he pulls back
• 4:24
  into the spot and he's just sitting there and I'm like, he's
• 4:29
  going to leave. I'll feel this on a spiritual
• 4:32
  level because I've also been in an accident and gotten and now
• 4:36
  I'm this sounds like this is this guy's fault, but I get
• 4:39
  fucked over by somebody parked illegally behind me.
• 4:40
  You've been here too. Oh, me too.
• 4:42
  And we've all been we all of us in our family anyway, have
• 4:45
  absolutely been screwed by the asshole who has hit us and left.
• 4:49
  Well, his or or been parked illegally.
• 4:52
  And I and I, it's always still your fault, right?
• 4:54
  I bump into them and it's like it's it's this moment of Yep,
• 4:58
  they're not out here, right? Do I just leave?
• 5:01
  I could go, but no, don't. No, I didn't do that, listener.
• 5:06
  I didn't do that. I can see this guy and I know, I
• 5:09
  know he's thinking about it. So she laid on the ground behind
• 5:12
  the tires. No, I didn't.
• 5:13
  I walked over there. He got out of his car and he
• 5:15
  kind of went and looked around and I could see the way he was
• 5:17
  parked, that he had fucked up and he was way too tight next to
• 5:20
  this guy. Yeah, and he had scraped the
• 5:22
  crap out of his car. I took a picture of his license
• 5:24
  plate and he saw me and I was a little bit nervous because I
• 5:27
  didn't want him to come over and beat my ass.
• 5:29
  But you know. I was like, it happens.
• 5:31
  The best of us wasn't even that good.
• 5:37
  I was. Like it doesn't happen to me.
• 5:41
  I don't want it. To I said it happens to the best
• 5:43
  of us. I don't think that includes
• 5:44
  either of us and. Apparently I'm not one of the
• 5:47
  best of us, but OK. So I was a little bit nervous,
• 5:50
  but I thought, no, I'm going over to take a picture of your
• 5:53
  license plate and then go for it.
• 5:55
  Like leave because I'm calling all security right now.
• 5:59
  Right now you call them all security.
• 6:01
  Yes, I did. I Googled the number.
• 6:04
  I called them and I said just let you know there's an accident
• 6:07
  in the parking lot. And I just wanted to let you
• 6:11
  know, have someone come down here and check it out.
• 6:13
  Yeah. And they're like, and the girl
• 6:14
  was stupid nice and said, yeah, we'll send somebody down there.
• 6:16
  Do you have the license plate of the person?
• 6:18
  Because I said because the the person in the car that was hit
• 6:20
  is not here. They're parked in the parking
• 6:22
  spot and they don't know that their car has been hit.
• 6:25
  And so she says, do you have license as the person who is
• 6:30
  responsible? I said yeah, yes, I did.
• 6:32
  And I gave her the number. And this guy stayed the whole
• 6:35
  time while you're calling. No.
• 6:36
  I walked away. I had walked away and walked
• 6:37
  back over by my car and I was like, can we go?
• 6:40
  And I'm like no. I've got to do my civic.
• 6:43
  Duty exactly. Would you want somebody to
• 6:45
  leave? It's true.
• 6:46
  And leave your car all fucked up.
• 6:47
  It's true. So I get realized plate number
• 6:51
  and I said he's I don't want I just don't want him to leave and
• 6:55
  leave this guy high and dry. So I'm just giving you this
• 6:57
  information and she's like, is this a good number if we need to
• 7:00
  call you back? And she's like, did you take a
• 7:02
  picture? And I said, yeah, yes, I did, in
• 7:04
  case they need me to send yeah them the picture.
• 7:07
  And I said, yeah, yeah, you can call me if you need me to.
• 7:09
  And so then then we left. Yeah, I did my job.
• 7:12
  Sorry, go ahead. I'm having a deja vu moment but
• 7:14
  go ahead. So, so, yeah, I hate, you know,
• 7:17
  he didn't leave because I think he saw me walk over there.
• 7:20
  Yeah. And he didn't say anything to me
• 7:22
  and I didn't say anything to him.
• 7:23
  That's. And yeah, absolutely.
• 7:25
  For the best. I was there.
• 7:26
  I'm not getting the middle of it.
• 7:27
  But I'm also not going to let you leave this guy high and dry.
• 7:29
  Like, that's just like, you know what?
• 7:31
  That sucks for both of you. It sucks that you hit this car,
• 7:35
  but you hit the car and I don't want to be.
• 7:38
  I don't want to be an asshole, but but honestly, you're not
• 7:41
  going to leave this poor shopper here.
• 7:44
  This guy's in there just. Shopping, trying to have a good
• 7:46
  day and and at the same time, I'm also not going to like
• 7:48
  berate you for this guy. I'm a just, I'm just, you know,
• 7:51
  my way. Accidents happen.
• 7:53
  I'm not going to. I wasn't going to go over there
• 7:55
  and just jump. The ship or anything, but I
• 7:56
  thought if he decides to leave, I will try to help this person
• 8:01
  who is innocent of all things and you know, got their car
• 8:04
  fucked up while they were trying to shop.
• 8:05
  So Yep. Anyway, I really hate people who
• 8:09
  hit someone and then leave. Yeah, I'm sorry, but that's such
• 8:12
  an and I said to you earlier, so it's a big Dick move.
• 8:15
  It's a no no. It's a tiny Dick.
• 8:17
  Tiny Dick move, tiny Dick move. That's what it is.
• 8:19
  Now I got to think, here's the thing real quick.
• 8:21
  I was having a Deja vu moment. Did you tell me once about you
• 8:24
  had a dream that you were at the mall or something like that and
• 8:26
  somebody had a hit and run or whatever.
• 8:28
  I'm having this Deja vu moment that you you were like, it was
• 8:31
  like there for a second, then gone that it was like you.
• 8:34
  I swear to God, I was maybe it wasn't on the podcast listener
• 8:38
  back me up if this was on the podcast and you remember this
• 8:40
  and I just don't. But I thought that you told me
• 8:42
  once that you had this dream about you in a parking lot with
• 8:47
  somebody like at a mall or whatever and same kind of thing,
• 8:49
  like a hit and run situation, but it was more.
• 8:52
  Similar to the Lone Star incident, the Lone Star
• 8:55
  incident, listeners, we told the story.
• 8:57
  Story. Sorry, we're going to tell it
• 8:58
  again. Yes, one time we walked out of a
• 9:01
  Lone Star, Abby's favorite restaurant that is no longer
• 9:04
  standing. And I'll tell you what, it's not
• 9:06
  even my favorite restaurant no more because it went downhill
• 9:09
  before they closed and unfortunately.
• 9:11
  That was that was a sad. That was that, that was a sad.
• 9:13
  That was a sad. That's the sad thing about
• 9:16
  restaurants when you when you really, really like them and
• 9:18
  then they, you could tell they're the end is coming and it
• 9:21
  could things start getting worse.
• 9:22
  And yeah. But anyway, we leave the Lone
• 9:24
  Star, we see a guy back out and hit a car.
• 9:28
  Yep. And this guy leaves.
• 9:31
  Yeah, he's like Deuces, I said. Everybody get in the car.
• 9:35
  I. Literally said that we get in
• 9:37
  the car. Now, from a nice family of five
• 9:39
  to a family of vigilantes. Vigilantes.
• 9:43
  I said this. The switch was immediate and
• 9:46
  everyone knew their job. We all got the car.
• 9:48
  Locked those seatbelts. I said Wayne, follow that car,
• 9:51
  white SUV and Wayne goes what the fuck are we going to do?
• 9:54
  We got you. He didn't say that word because
• 9:56
  the kids were in the car, but he said what are we going to do
• 9:58
  when we catch him? I said we're not going to do
• 9:59
  anything. Anything.
• 10:00
  We're going to write down his license plate number and let him
• 10:02
  go on his way. We're not going to confront him
• 10:04
  with the children in the car like what you're talking.
• 10:06
  About in the back get. Any Adam get him, he's got a
• 10:09
  knife. Jesus, he's got a little
• 10:12
  switchblades, but I. Was like I only would have had a
• 10:15
  pocket knife at that time. Legit, this was this was prior
• 10:18
  to phones, you know, cell phones.
• 10:20
  I was. Yeah, I mean, how old do you
• 10:21
  think I. Was like maybe 10.
• 10:23
  Yeah, tops. You were guys.
• 10:25
  I thought you guys were younger, but anyway.
• 10:26
  Yeah, no, yeah, 100. Percent.
• 10:27
  I don't think tops. Did we have Liv at the time?
• 10:30
  OK. She would have been Pretty
• 10:31
  Little. Yeah.
• 10:32
  You were like, happy. Strap her in.
• 10:34
  Let's go. You know, off we go.
• 10:36
  And we did. We wrote down his his license
• 10:39
  plate numbers from Alaska. I don't know why I remember
• 10:41
  that. And Todd, that's true.
• 10:44
  Being Alaska. And then we turned around and
• 10:46
  went back. And by then the police were
• 10:49
  there. And your dad, we stayed in the
• 10:50
  car. Dad went over there and he's
• 10:52
  like, hey, we saw this. And as he starts approaching, he
• 10:54
  goes, did you hit this car? He's like, no, no, but we saw
• 10:58
  who did. Yeah.
• 11:00
  And here's the license plate, License plate number.
• 11:02
  We just went to get the number. And then we came back because
• 11:05
  they were like, oh, we saw you guys like tear out of here.
• 11:07
  We didn't tear out of there. There was no tire squealing.
• 11:09
  We just followed those guys like we saw you guys leave in a
• 11:12
  hurry. The other guy thought maybe we
• 11:14
  had done it. We're like, we were parked way
• 11:15
  the hell over there. How do you think we did it?
• 11:18
  So that was kind of weird there. But boy, we're trying to do a
• 11:20
  nice thing for you, asshole. But anyway, he tells them lies,
• 11:24
  place number, they catch the guy.
• 11:25
  Yeah, they catch the guy. And then your dad is gets like
• 11:30
  the summons or whatever to come to court to testify, gets this
• 11:34
  guy because he's like, I didn't do it.
• 11:37
  He's insisting, insisting he didn't do it.
• 11:39
  We got security cameras. We got, we got two year.
• 11:43
  Old out here at this vigilante family you don't even know.
• 11:47
  We're all sitting there with pipes slamming against our
• 11:49
  palms. I'm fucking pulling on my ski
• 11:51
  mask. I'm like, I'm ready for a little
• 11:53
  vigilant to justice if this guy walks.
• 11:56
  Legit. Well, there was another
• 11:58
  gentleman who had also witnessed it.
• 12:00
  Yeah. And he was there so that your
• 12:02
  dad and this other guy are sitting outside the courtroom.
• 12:06
  And this guy, I don't know if it's a lawyer who was telling
• 12:09
  them like, yeah, this guy is claiming he didn't do it.
• 12:11
  So, you know, we're if we need be, we're going to go in there.
• 12:14
  You're going to have to go in there and say, just say what you
• 12:17
  saw and. Then we follow them.
• 12:19
  And say, yeah, say what happened and your dad's like, shit, I
• 12:22
  really don't want to testify against this guy.
• 12:24
  Like, this is making me nervous. And that guy's like, I don't
• 12:27
  think I will do this either. Like I thought I was just doing
• 12:30
  a nice. Thing just trying to help this
• 12:32
  other guy out, you know. So anyway, so they go in there
• 12:35
  and then everything starts and they tell the dude who hit the
• 12:38
  car, we have two people outside who saw you do this.
• 12:42
  They will be coming in here. They will be testifying against
• 12:45
  you. They will tell the court what
• 12:47
  they saw. So do you want to change your
• 12:48
  plea? Yeah.
• 12:49
  And he did. Yeah.
• 12:50
  And so your dad did not have to go in there.
• 12:52
  I tell. You got 2 witnesses that say
• 12:54
  like, we'll tell you what we saw.
• 12:56
  What did you see? Honestly, I don't know.
• 12:57
  I was in the car. I had to fuck with this shit.
• 13:00
  I'm the one, but they're going to tell you what they saw.
• 13:02
  The thing is, I was the one that saw.
• 13:04
  It I know. Your dad just happened to walk
• 13:06
  over there to tell him the lies. Might never he gets roamed in.
• 13:10
  I was the one that saw the accent.
• 13:12
  But anyway, it all worked out because he's like, I really
• 13:15
  don't want to sit face to face and have to look this this guy's
• 13:19
  going to see me. He's going to see my face.
• 13:20
  He's going to hear my name. They can't do that.
• 13:23
  Blur the voice changer. Live in person.
• 13:25
  Legit, he's like, I don't think I want to do this.
• 13:28
  So I could get that's a little bit scary.
• 13:29
  And he was the military person in the military.
• 13:32
  And that's tough. Yeah.
• 13:34
  And so we had. We had a lot of those night this
• 13:36
  area because of the base. We had.
• 13:37
  We live near a base. Yeah.
• 13:38
  So it all worked out in the end. He didn't have to testify.
• 13:40
  It was all great. And that was our vigilante
• 13:42
  moment. And we did our good deed for the
• 13:44
  day. But.
• 13:46
  Yeah, no, so I I had AI just had this Deja vu moment as you were
• 13:49
  telling me about you guys with this guy in the in the mall that
• 13:53
  you had told me, like I said, something like a similar story
• 13:57
  about you having a dream about something could have happening
• 13:59
  could have been. And so I'm just like, look at
• 14:01
  you a little premonition. Let me tell you something.
• 14:02
  If you ever have a dream about any specific like numbers.
• 14:05
  Like a lottery kind of situation.
• 14:06
  You let me. Grow up.
• 14:07
  You're right. I need to.
• 14:08
  I actually need to keep a little book by my bedside.
• 14:12
  Yeah. To write my dreams down.
• 14:13
  Because later that's it. I don't remember.
• 14:15
  Oh no, I don't remember. I really don't remember them.
• 14:17
  Yeah. So except for, like, I have two
• 14:20
  recurring dreams that I remember that I'll tell you about
• 14:22
  sometime, but otherwise, I don't remember.
• 14:26
  I'm there. I might tell you.
• 14:27
  I do remember the one about the cats living in my closet,
• 14:29
  though. That one I do remember.
• 14:31
  Do you remember the one you told me about us living in the?
• 14:34
  Basement of the target in the not the basement.
• 14:36
  We just lived in the Target. Oh, I see.
• 14:37
  I'm sure. I, I thought that.
• 14:39
  I always imagined that there was a little hatch on the floor that
• 14:41
  we were living in. We just lived in the Target, and
• 14:43
  that Momo and Popo were coming by and bringing a spoon.
• 14:45
  Do you remember these? Food at the target.
• 14:47
  Why would they need to break his?
• 14:48
  Food, I'm telling you, you told me that Mama Papa came by and
• 14:50
  brought us things. I don't remember that, but
• 14:53
  everything he needs in the target, well, I'm sure a bit.
• 14:57
  You know, it's not like AJC Penney where they got those fake
• 15:00
  beds there. Do you know, there were people
• 15:01
  who were like living in like a Kmart.
• 15:03
  What was that? Yeah, This was like a big thing
• 15:05
  back in the day because you could, could buy like a mattress
• 15:07
  at Kmart and such like that for a little bit.
• 15:09
  You could. And I just shipped my drawers.
• 15:11
  I just shipped my bed. That's that's commercial of all
• 15:15
  time, Not that's a pretty good commercial.
• 15:18
  It made you laugh. When we remembered it.
• 15:21
  But we never got it. But anyway, so I had to, I had
• 15:24
  to revisit my vigilante days yesterday and I did not get a
• 15:27
  call from the mall security. The guy did stay and took
• 15:31
  responsibility. And I feel bad for the dude that
• 15:33
  the car got hit, but you know, at least he wasn't going to get
• 15:37
  left high and dry. Hopefully that guy had
• 15:39
  insurance. I don't know.
• 15:40
  I agree, I'm out of it. I've done my part.
• 15:42
  OK, so yeah, my beef long. That was a long, convoluted
• 15:45
  beef, but. Are are we the people who do hit
• 15:48
  and runs? Don't.
• 15:48
  Don't do it. Don't do that.
• 15:49
  Yeah. Don't do that, OK, man, I was
• 15:51
  telling you about, I was drawn. I'd take 64 to 70 most days
• 15:56
  going to work and whatnot. And I had heard on Thursday
• 15:58
  there is like a road rage incident that somebody, I don't
• 16:02
  know, it was road rage incident. Somebody got pissed off and they
• 16:04
  pulled a gun. They just fucking shot somebody
• 16:06
  with. Texas license plates?
• 16:08
  Yeah. Pulls his gun out and shoots a
• 16:11
  guy he didn't kill. Him.
• 16:12
  But I didn't think you had died. But but holy crap, can you even
• 16:16
  imagine? Fuck.
• 16:17
  No, that's why I don't fucking honk my horn.
• 16:19
  And nobody was about to be hit. I heard that story and I'm
• 16:22
  giving the girls lecture yesterday and I literally
• 16:24
  sitting there, there was like, how many were there was 4.
• 16:26
  There were six of us. We're sitting around this table
• 16:28
  having some Sabaros at the West County Mall.
• 16:31
  A damn Asarcu too. I'll just let you know.
• 16:33
  I know they do. I know they do.
• 16:35
  That's a great mall. That place is hopping.
• 16:36
  I'll tell you what it's, but it's like 45 minute drive out
• 16:39
  there for us. Anyway, I'm sitting there and
• 16:42
  I'm like you guys, dude from Texas, at least he had Texas
• 16:45
  plates. Don't know.
• 16:46
  Pulled his gun out, shot somebody on 70.
• 16:48
  Nobody honk their horn. Don't flip off somebody.
• 16:51
  Don't cut anybody. Off Honk your horn if you're
• 16:53
  about to be hit. I'm over your asshole.
• 16:57
  If you need to let someone know that you're there, whether you
• 17:00
  someone's backing out and it's going to hit you or could change
• 17:02
  lanes, absolutely alert them. Alert them with your horn.
• 17:05
  That's what it's for. Do not blare your horn at
• 17:07
  someone who cut you off because you know you're mad.
• 17:11
  I will kill you, yeah. Apparently they're gonna pull
• 17:13
  their gun out and kill you so. And and as we.
• 17:16
  Let it go. As we looked up previously,
• 17:19
  yeah, most of the crimes committed in this area are by
• 17:22
  out of state people. Legit.
• 17:24
  That's because we were looking that up.
• 17:25
  But the murder rate in the crime round and stuff, and because
• 17:27
  it's tough because it's like, Oh, well, yeah, there's a lot of
• 17:29
  these things reported, but a lot of them are also out of state
• 17:32
  because of course in this area you can order Illinois, but then
• 17:35
  also people, people cross the across the state.
• 17:41
  Borders just to do stupid shit. Do stupid shit, Yeah, and also.
• 17:45
  I'm sure there's a lot of. Military but then gets the bad
• 17:47
  rap. But yeah, that's exactly right.
• 17:49
  But anyway, yeah, don't just let that shit go.
• 17:53
  It is not. It's sad, but don't.
• 17:56
  Well, we said this, we said this.
• 17:58
  Can you imagine being like, I'm going to ruin my whole life
• 18:02
  because somebody cut me off in traffic?
• 18:03
  For something so petty, you know?
• 18:04
  What I mean in? Traffic, you're going to kill a
• 18:07
  guy or shoot whatever. If you don't kill him, you're
• 18:09
  going to jail. You're going to ruin your whole
• 18:11
  life. You think you're going to have a
• 18:13
  job after that? Not unless you're self-employed.
• 18:16
  True. You know what I mean?
• 18:18
  You're going to, you're going to have.
• 18:19
  That's going to be on your record forever.
• 18:20
  You're going to. I wouldn't.
• 18:21
  Want anything to do with you because I'm like you got a bad
• 18:24
  temper. Well, and you're not going to be
• 18:26
  allowed to own a gun anymore. That's true.
• 18:28
  You know what I mean? Not legally, No, you're not
• 18:30
  going to be. I don't even know if you're not
• 18:32
  allowed to have a license anymore.
• 18:33
  I think personally you should have to take it away.
• 18:35
  If you fucking are involved in Rd.
• 18:37
  Rangers where you shoot someone, you should not be allowed to
• 18:39
  have a license. You should not.
• 18:41
  Be allowed to be behind the wheel of a car because obviously
• 18:44
  you can't handle. It and there goes your truck
• 18:46
  driving business. That's the biggest.
• 18:54
  Maybe in Texas that behavior is acceptable, but it is not
• 18:57
  accessible here. Come on, come on.
• 19:00
  It together, man, man. But so, yeah, no, I'm like, I'm
• 19:04
  like, I I just, I just don't understand that that whole idea
• 19:09
  of like I. Really.
• 19:09
  Don't I? Really.
• 19:10
  Don't you know like you know because.
• 19:11
  It's so petty, right? Well, yeah, I'm like, you know,
• 19:13
  I, I listen, I've been pissed off in traffic 100%.
• 19:16
  We all have been pissed. Everybody's been like, the
• 19:19
  moment that I escalate this and I hit this person with my car
• 19:22
  intentionally because I'm pissed off or I.
• 19:24
  Whip my gun. Whip my gun or I whip.
• 19:26
  This thing out. And please.
• 19:29
  Their children right or I get in my car and I like punch it
• 19:32
  through their window and that's true go to beat the shit out of
• 19:34
  them you've. Seen videos of crazy behavior?
• 19:36
  Right. The moment that I do something
• 19:38
  like that, I've ruined my life forever.
• 19:40
  I will never be able to get past this phone because that's on my
• 19:42
  record for the rest of my life. And guess what?
• 19:45
  You're not getting away. You're stuck in traffic.
• 19:47
  Well, that's. The thing maybe especially when
• 19:49
  you're in traffic, what are you? What is your exit strategy?
• 19:52
  Where do you think you're going to go?
• 19:53
  I'm all for crime, but like you have to have an exit.
• 19:57
  You're fucking rush hour traffic.
• 19:59
  Where are. You going?
• 20:01
  Where are you going? I thought that was.
• 20:02
  Hilarious too. I'm like, you're gonna get
• 20:04
  caught, dude. 100% yeah. What a dumb ass.
• 20:07
  Now I got, I got I'm gonna switch.
• 20:10
  Let's switch subjects on you. Sure, let's go.
• 20:12
  OK. What else you got I?
• 20:14
  Have something that's completely random but I saw in the car
• 20:17
  right over and it cracked me up too much to not tell you.
• 20:19
  I got some, I got some random shit too, so let's do.
• 20:21
  It all right, now here's the thing.
• 20:23
  I am in the car on the way over and I have Apple Music on and I
• 20:27
  just have the Abby Station, right?
• 20:29
  And it just kind of takes into account the things that I like.
• 20:31
  And it'll play some of the songs I've already heard.
• 20:34
  Sometimes they'll suggest new stuff, you know, stuff like
• 20:35
  that, right? And now it'll play songs that I
• 20:40
  already know. And sometimes the like the way
• 20:42
  that the algorithm works is that like we know that Abby likes
• 20:46
  Footloose by Kenny Loggins, but we've already played that OK
• 20:49
  before. So we're going to play the same
• 20:52
  song, but that it's on a different album.
• 20:54
  She's got a like this one. Right now.
• 20:58
  And that's fine. It wasn't like you're playing it
• 20:59
  back-to-back, OK, But nothing was going to prepare me for the
• 21:03
  album that Footloose by Kenny Loggins was playing on today.
• 21:07
  OK, I can see. I can see on my little car
• 21:12
  because it's old as shit. It just says like the album and
• 21:16
  it says best blank songs. OK.
• 21:19
  And then there's more and I don't know what the dot dot dot.
• 21:21
  It doesn't scroll. Yeah, it doesn't.
• 21:22
  Scroll so you can only see so much OK.
• 21:24
  So as I pull up to your house, I, I parked the car and I pull
• 21:29
  this up because I was like, what fucking album is this?
• 21:32
  I'm sorry. And it it's a compilation album.
• 21:36
  It's a compilation album. Sure, sure.
• 21:37
  Sure it was best rugby songs of 2023.
• 21:39
  The best? The rugby solid and it's got a.
• 21:43
  Little. There it is.
• 21:44
  The ball, What is a rugby ball? I don't know.
• 21:46
  You can't call it. Yeah, okay, I think.
• 21:48
  It's called the ball. I don't know, I guess.
• 21:51
  I nothing was going to prepare me for what else was on this
• 21:56
  album. That's hilarious.
• 21:58
  So it keeps. Playing.
• 21:59
  Footloose by Kenny Loggins, but it pulls it from different
• 22:02
  albums, so you don't suspect that they're playing the same
• 22:04
  song over and over. No.
• 22:05
  So it doesn't like, doesn't like play it over and over.
• 22:08
  It's just like, oh, OK. We're going to randomly throws
• 22:10
  it, right? Here's the band Camino.
• 22:11
  Here's the 1975, here's Stupid Love by Dan and Shay.
• 22:15
  Whatever. And then it's like, oh, we know
• 22:17
  that she likes Footloose. Here's Footloose.
• 22:19
  OK. But and then they'll just pull
• 22:21
  it from a different album, so it's it doesn't feel like
• 22:23
  they're playing. The algorithm thinks it's not
• 22:25
  playing the exact same song over and over, even though it
• 22:27
  definitely is. And that's what.
• 22:28
  It is. I love Footloose, right?
• 22:29
  Who? What am I got?
• 22:31
  Abby is not going to argue every now and then, yeah.
• 22:35
  But listen on Apple Music, there's 39 songs OK on here.
• 22:39
  Just a quick sampling. So obviously Footloose is on
• 22:42
  here. Shut up and Dance by Walk The
• 22:44
  Moon. Excellent song.
• 22:45
  Africa by Toto. OK.
• 22:47
  Dancing in the Dark by Bruce Springsteen's September by
• 22:50
  Earth, Wind and Fire. This is a banger.
• 22:51
  Let's not believe in my journey. What?
• 22:54
  Is this album? It's.
• 22:56
  Best broken songs in 2020. Three, that's your ass.
• 22:59
  I'm going to go find him, but I'll like make.
• 23:00
  A you know, teenage dirtbag by Weedus.
• 23:03
  I don't know that one. Oh, you.
• 23:04
  Oh, I do recognize you. You would know.
• 23:06
  You would know that if. I heard it OK.
• 23:08
  Rasputin, I don't know if you know, it's like that one that's
• 23:11
  on here. Hey Y'all by Outkast.
• 23:14
  Jolene by Dolly Parton the best. Songs Jolene by Dolly Parton.
• 23:22
  Fantastic. Be My Baby by The Ronettes.
• 23:25
  Oh, by the We're going back now. Beautiful girls by Sean Kingston
• 23:32
  I left my pink Ring of Fire Johnny Cash This is the I
• 23:37
  nothing nothing is going to prepare me nothing for the best
• 23:41
  rugby songs. That's fantastic.
• 23:45
  I'm going to tell you that I googled what is a rugby ball
• 23:48
  called and the the AI over overview is being a little
• 23:53
  sarcastic bitch right now because it says a rugby ball is
• 23:56
  simply called a rugby ball. OK, FUAI overview.
• 24:01
  Just rub that in my face. Holy fucking shit that's
• 24:04
  hilarious. No, that's a banger of an album
• 24:06
  right there. And I'm.
• 24:07
  Gonna hear you. Hang on.
• 24:08
  I'm gonna share this if I can. There you go.
• 24:12
  Absolutely. So I I had to tell you about the
• 24:14
  the, The Best Rugby Songs 2023. OK, Fantastic.
• 24:19
  Oh my God. So that's hilarious.
• 24:22
  But yeah. And then I was like, I was like,
• 24:23
  OK, so first of all, that's fucking hilarious that it's the
• 24:26
  best Rugby songs 2023 And then and then I was like, you know,
• 24:31
  Footloose apparently is on here. But then, yeah, Burning Love by
• 24:34
  Elvis Presley. It just gets better.
• 24:36
  Oh, that's a great song. I know I'm like, so I but so
• 24:40
  first of all, I was cracking up that Footloose is on here and I
• 24:42
  was like, Footloose. OK, well, feet rugby maybe.
• 24:46
  I see what you're going for here.
• 24:47
  Yeah. No.
• 24:48
  One Kiss by Calvin Harrison, Dua Lipa.
• 24:50
  Oh, that's. A great song, but.
• 24:51
  What do you think of the moonlight by toddler?
• 24:53
  I would think I was like, Oh well, hold It Out for a Hero by
• 24:56
  Bonnie Tyler. That yeah, legit.
• 25:00
  I'm like, I, I was like, now I don't know what you're going
• 25:04
  for, but you know what? Whoever you are who put this
• 25:07
  album together, thank you. Good on ya man that's it that's
• 25:10
  a great that's a great list OK, we love it.
• 25:13
  I was back it up OK, I love it that's awesome, but I have a so
• 25:17
  then I have a sports thing. So this is I'm sort of we're
• 25:20
  trying to sweat we're trying to segue I'm trying to not be safe
• 25:23
  too completely random today, but you know even if we.
• 25:25
  I don't care. Did you hear about the Cardinals
• 25:27
  ticket deal? Yeah, apparently they're doing
• 25:30
  this as multiple stadiums. Oh, OK.
• 25:32
  And I don't know if this is for sure or not.
• 25:35
  I didn't verify this, sorry listener, but I think it's maybe
• 25:39
  a deal that Coca-Cola has with some.
• 25:41
  Stadiums and they're. It's got to be the ones that are
• 25:43
  they're doing. It they're also trying to get
• 25:44
  butts in seats. Let's be honest, the MLB is is
• 25:48
  some of the stadiums are a bit empty.
• 25:50
  Yep, this. Especially last year.
• 25:53
  So they play a ton of games and it's not as engaging as like at
• 25:56
  a basketball game. I feel like it's kind of like an
• 25:59
  event. Well, even hockey and there's
• 26:01
  always some action, there's always something going on.
• 26:03
  It's a little more fast-paced, people like that.
• 26:05
  Our attention spans are in the toilet these days, but it's also
• 26:10
  expensive. Yeah.
• 26:11
  And your concessions are marked up 300%, if not more outrageous.
• 26:16
  And. Yeah, it's outrageous outrage
• 26:18
  because you're sitting there. The game, it's a little slower
• 26:20
  pace. What are you gonna do?
• 26:21
  You want a snack? You want a drink?
• 26:23
  Also, it's hot. You're an outdoor venue.
• 26:26
  Yeah. It's not like a hockey game.
• 26:28
  And. The Cardinals have not been good
• 26:30
  the last couple of seasons. Many seasons it's been, it's
• 26:32
  been a while. I know, right?
• 26:34
  I'm being I'm. Trying to be fair.
• 26:35
  We've lost Nolan Ryan. Sad, sad, sad, sad.
• 26:38
  I know that couldn't get him a World Series, but what are you
• 26:40
  going to do? Lost Yachty and not not lost,
• 26:42
  but, you know, but I heard he's going to come back to the
• 26:44
  coaching staff. Hurray.
• 26:45
  Yeah. Which is awesome.
• 26:47
  But anyway, the what's the deal? Tell us about the deal.
• 26:50
  So the deal is $29.00 ticket and you get you're sitting in Big
• 26:54
  Mac land. And you get, like, unlimited
• 26:56
  concessions up to the 8th inning.
• 26:59
  Yeah. And it's like, it's like drinks,
• 27:01
  nachos, Broads, hot dogs, a whole bunch of shit, right?
• 27:05
  Hell, that's worth it just for the drinks.
• 27:06
  Ice cream. Which is sad because to get one
• 27:10
  drink. One to get a drink, Coke and no
• 27:12
  refills, just to get one drink to get a ticket, a drink and
• 27:15
  maybe a Nacho. It's already gonna be more than
• 27:18
  I already know. It's more than $29.00.
• 27:19
  And so even without offering me the unlimited, I would have
• 27:22
  bought it for that. No, don't take it away.
• 27:25
  I'm going up there and getting my nachos.
• 27:27
  Don't I sort of got legit. We're at least we're out to get
• 27:29
  in because you're gonna sell out.
• 27:30
  When it's 90° outside, I can at least get a refill on my drinks,
• 27:33
  which is awesome, without having to pay another 20 bucks or
• 27:36
  something, you know? Yeah, I saw a thing that said
• 27:38
  like. You know, making things
• 27:40
  affordable for like the middle class and lower class and
• 27:43
  whatnot is never going to be a bad marketing strategy.
• 27:45
  Never because they. I'm gonna go.
• 27:48
  I'm gonna go. I'm absolutely gonna go.
• 27:49
  Like people. You can't.
• 27:50
  You know, you used to be able to go and you'd take your kids and
• 27:52
  you'd have a fun day. Yeah.
• 27:53
  Can't afford to do that now. No.
• 27:55
  Yeah. So.
• 27:56
  I mean, like, that's a, that's a.
• 27:58
  That is an excellent marketing strategy.
• 28:00
  They should be trying to get make it affordable for people to
• 28:03
  get to the games and support the team.
• 28:05
  Absolutely. You're hardware.
• 28:07
  You're already making plenty of money off advertisers and shit
• 28:10
  like that. You know people's stadium is is
• 28:12
  packed. If you look around the entire
• 28:14
  stadium, how much advertising is on the walls or wherever?
• 28:16
  They're paying for every minute that and that doesn't count
• 28:19
  commercials. Legit, that doesn't count radio
• 28:21
  commercials. So if you want to sit here, if
• 28:23
  you want us to cheer on the team, which you know, we not
• 28:26
  everybody loves doing that, but we enjoy.
• 28:27
  Going to a game? Hey, we love the Cardinals.
• 28:30
  Make it so I can afford to do it.
• 28:32
  Yeah, I shouldn't have to take out.
• 28:33
  I shouldn't have to go down the bank and take out a small one.
• 28:35
  Yeah, 100%. No, absolutely.
• 28:40
  I have to tell you this very quickly.
• 28:42
  Sam and Liv are watching Tik Toks and it was a kid.
• 28:46
  A lady was at a bar and she's like, oh, I want to pay my tab.
• 28:50
  What'd you have? Three vodka cranberries?
• 28:53
  I'm going to need you to go down to the bank and take out a small
• 28:56
  loan. And so we were laughing so hard
• 28:59
  about that. And so when the dude hit that
• 29:00
  car yesterday, we're like, we're going to need you to go take out
• 29:03
  a small loan. Yeah, we were cracking ourselves
• 29:05
  up, but anyway. OK update Just FYI it is only
• 29:09

• 29:10
  Legit it's a it's the Coca-Cola unlimited.
• 29:13
  Whatever. And they, well, they, they
• 29:15
  needed to do something because attendance was way down last.

• 29:27
  all I need. And live a little olives.

• 29:32
  French fries, popcorn, peanuts, kettle chips, ice cream cups in
• 29:36
  the little helmet. Yep, Fans may select.

  Probably. Fans may.
• 29:41

• 29:43
  cup. Vine, for God's sake.
• 29:44
  It's 29 bucks, Anna. It's 29 bucks for an ice cream.
• 29:47
  What do you What do you want? Fans may select up to three
• 29:50
  items per visit and in return as often as they like.
• 29:52
  And then it goes until the 8th inning.
• 29:54
  Wow, yeah. You could really gorgeous.
• 29:58
  I was, I was listening to the radio before my fucking music
• 30:01
  kicked on. And the guy goes, how many hot
• 30:03
  dogs do you think you could eat in three hours?
• 30:05
  And the one guy was like. 6 Not me.
• 30:08
  I think I could get 10 down. Oh my God.
• 30:09
  And I'm like, I mean, if I was really committed, I would get 0
• 30:12
  down. I hate hot dogs, but how many
• 30:14
  rats do you? I think I could eat in three
• 30:17
  hours. I think, I think I could average
• 30:19
  2 an hour if I was really, really like trying to fight it
• 30:23
  and trying to get my money's worth, you know?
• 30:25
  What? I mean, I'm like, your dad would
• 30:27
  take that challenge and then he would be miserable for the next
• 30:30
  week. So yeah, no, we don't need to
• 30:33
  try to eat that much food. That's crazy.
• 30:35
  But yeah, no, it's two sections, sections 270-1272 and then you
• 30:38
  can go to. Cool.
• 30:40
  Well thing, I'm like, fuck it, let me do something, Big Mac
• 30:43
  Lane. Now I get a fucking
• 30:44
  cheeseburger. The next day, right?
• 30:46
  Yeah, we do it. All right.
• 30:47
  We're in on that. Hell yeah.
• 30:49
  Food and drinks will be available from when gates open
• 30:52
  until the end of the 8th inning, so if you get there early
• 30:54
  enough, you could. Fucking gate open our view can
• 30:56
  be. Pounding those wieners.
• 30:59
  You could be barfing by the 8th inning.
• 31:02
  Or even before the game starts. If you're started, you're
• 31:05
  absolutely committed. Wow.
• 31:08
  OK, yeah. So I was like, I'm like, we're
• 31:10
  gonna have to go. Yeah, absolutely.
• 31:13
  The best time to go. I will say my favorite time to
• 31:17
  go to a Colonel game is like April and May.
• 31:21
  Yeah, before it's gotten too crazy hot, right?
• 31:23
  And we're going to have to get these tickets early because, you
• 31:25
  know, they're going to sell everybody and their brother's
• 31:27
  going to be, I would think, clamoring for these.
• 31:29
  But yeah, your dad and I, we like to go to the games April
• 31:32
  and May because then it's not 100° yet.
• 31:35
  And so we'll check out the, we'll check out the giveaways
• 31:39
  during those months. And then a lot of times, him and
• 31:41
  I usually take in at least one game where we do an all
• 31:44
  inclusive. It's the president.
• 31:47
  I think it's the president's club that is my favorite and
• 31:50
  they've got, they've got the daiquiris on tap, man, it's
• 31:53
  amazing. It's amazing.
• 31:55
  I love the presidents club, presidents club.
• 31:58
  And typically we, you know, you have a lot of the, the Cardinals
• 32:03
  have like sales reps whatever. And if you've bought like from
• 32:07
  one before, they reach out to you in the next year.
• 32:10
  And so I'm I'm I'm already getting the emails, you know,
• 32:13
  and you can get the the you only time you can get really good
• 32:17
  deals on the all inclusive tickets are April and May.
• 32:20
  Why? I think it's because it's early
• 32:22
  on. They're trying to get people
• 32:23
  there, that kind of thing. Yeah.
• 32:25
  And so you can get pretty good deals on all clueses for if you
• 32:28
  go early on. So I'm going to have to check my
• 32:30
  emails and see what they've got to offer me.
• 32:33
  But yeah, someday you're going to have to go and sit in the
• 32:36
  Presidents Club because it's a. Well, I'll tell you what, I got
• 32:40
  to go sit at the whatever the fucking Royals Club 1 was, Yeah,
• 32:44
  because yeah, yeah. It was your work though.

  We got partnership. That was fancy, which is
• 32:47
  awesome. That was fancy schmancy, I'll

  tell you that. So heck yeah.
• 32:51
  Also I can turn that down. I, I'm not a, I'm not a Royals
• 32:55

• 32:57
  whatnot, Of course, as you should be.

  I, I know of, of Bobby Witt Junior now, who is the shortstop
• 33:03
  for the Royals, OK. And I was telling you about it,
• 33:05

• 33:10
  photogenic man I've ever seen. Legit Bobby Whit Junior.

  No matter what he's doing, he always looks camera.

  He's gone kind of like a mullet, so it's flying behind.
• 33:45
  Yeah, he doesn't. Well, this in these photos he

• 34:04

• 34:07
  He is always, he always seems to be ready, but he's a nice guy.
• 34:12
  He's a nice guy. And he sponsors the bank or
• 34:15
  he's. One of the spokesperson, well, I
• 34:17
  don't know, we got a deal. We have a deal.
• 34:20
  You have a deal we don't talk about.
• 34:21
  It no, we have like, I don't want to go into the deal because
• 34:23
  I don't know what I can say. And that's OK, because that
• 34:26
  would be boring, so we're not going to talk.
• 34:27
  About that, no, but yeah, no, I don't know.
• 34:30
  But I have sat in the the fancy schmancy fucking Royals club.
• 34:34
  Nice, Nice. Those are always fun.
• 34:36
  That's always a fun time, right? Yeah.
• 34:38
  Well, very cool. Very cool.
• 34:42
  What? Oh, I know.
• 34:44
  And so that brings me to my sauce.
• 34:46
  Sauce. You're right, when he was in
• 34:47
  the. Sauce, my secret sauce Well, I
• 34:49
  was waiting 'cause I needed a transition.
• 34:50
  The sauce is. Stadium secret sauce?
• 34:53
  So stadium secret sauce, yes. Is that sold at all stadiums?
• 34:58
  Nope, it's only still sold at the Brewer Stadium.
• 35:00
  Oh, I just talked about this. We have now my life has changed
• 35:05
  just now today when I just googled because.
• 35:07
  If you don't know where the Brewer Stadium is in Wisconsin.
• 35:09
  It's in Wisconsin, Milwaukee, if you will, the Milwaukee Brewers.
• 35:11
  They also have the perfect logo. Just FYI, I do like.
• 35:15
  That it's because I don't just like it, Anna.
• 35:17
  I'm objectively correct that it is the perfect logo.
• 35:21
  From a graphic designer. You see, it's a glove, a ball.
• 35:23
  Look it up. We'll probably post a picture.
• 35:26
  It is Ashley and I agree. It is like it's what you aspire
• 35:30
  to have. All graphic designers should
• 35:31
  aspire well, this logo because it's it's all graphic designers
• 35:35
  should aspire to design A logo as good as the Milwaukee
• 35:39
  Brewers, like alternate, like icon logo.
• 35:42
  OK, they resist stunts. OK.
• 35:46
  OK. OK.
• 35:47
  But they have what's called the stadium secret sauce.
• 35:50
  It's kind of like a BBQ sauce or whatever.
• 35:51
  OK, but it's a secret. Yeah.
• 35:54
  Well, and so Ash's family's course is from Wisconsin.
• 35:58
  And so they have gone and picked us up, you know, because you can
• 36:03
  just buy it, grocery stores and such like that up there.
• 36:05
  So they'll pick us up a a thing or two and bring it down.
• 36:08
  Then we'll have it. So whenever we make broths.
• 36:10
  I just did a Google to get the name of this sauce because I
• 36:13
  want to make sure I had it right.
• 36:15
  Turns out you can buy a 2 pack on Amazon.
• 36:17
  Oh. Legit hot damn.
• 36:19
  OK, you don't have to wait for it to come back from Wisconsin.
• 36:21
  No, No, you don't. That's awesome.
• 36:24
  I was like, I can. You're telling me?
• 36:26
  You're telling me that for the low, low price of 2195, I can
• 36:31
  get a pack of two stadium secret sauces?
• 36:32
  Hot damn. OK now.
• 36:35
  Oh, yeah. By now.
• 36:37
  You said it's kind of like a BBQ sauce.
• 36:38
  Is it better than Sweet Baby Ray's?
• 36:41
  It's not, AI wouldn't use it as a BBQ.
• 36:43
  Sauce. Oh, I see.
• 36:44
  OK. It's kind of like that.
• 36:46
  But I would not. I would not.
• 36:48
  So is it more like instead of ketchup, you would put that on
• 36:50
  your bride 100% every. And that's all I'll put.
• 36:53
  It's all I used. OK.
• 36:53
  It's like a little topping rather than a Yeah.
• 36:56
  It's like sauce. OK.
• 36:57
  Yeah. It's like almost maybe there's
• 36:58
  like maybe a little more vinegar in it than a, than a true BBQ
• 37:02
  sauce because it's a little bit runnier.
• 37:04
  It's not as thick as what you would expect.
• 37:06
  Like a sweet baby race. OK.
• 37:07
  OK. But it is.
• 37:08
  I like it. OK, I'm trying to see if they
• 37:11
  have a description for like what it tastes like.
• 37:14
  Probably not. Not on Amazon they won't, but
• 37:16
  yeah, I know Ash loves it. Yeah, it's got water, tomato
• 37:20
  paste, corn syrup, distilled vinegar, high fructose corn
• 37:23
  syrup. I'm not going to keep going,
• 37:24
  but. That doesn't sound like much of
• 37:25
  A secret that list the ingredients honestly they sell.
• 37:32
  One bottle of secret stadium sauce and half well doesn't tell
• 37:34
  you the amounts of what everything.
• 37:36
  It's true, you know, but. They do have to tell you they
• 37:38
  would grill. Sausages until golden brown.
• 37:40
  Dip sausages in simmering secret sauce at 180°.
• 37:44
  Place sausage, sausages and fresh long rolls.
• 37:47
  Garnish with sauerkraut or onions before serving.
• 37:50
  Also great on chicken or ribbes. I had a stroke of the other also
• 37:58
  grid on chicken or ribs cracks we had.
• 38:02
  That was awesome. Yeah.
• 38:04
  Nope. OK, so there's our sauce.
• 38:08
  That's our sauce. I like it.
• 38:09
  OK. I don't think I've ever had it.
• 38:10
  So that'll be fun to try. Yeah.
• 38:13
  Very cool. You've actually I brought it
• 38:15
  over. I don't know if you tried it or
• 38:16
  not, but I did bring it over when we came over for brats one
• 38:18
  day. And but yeah, like I said, I
• 38:21
  don't know if you I don't. Know if I didn't know, to be
• 38:23
  honest with you, I don't think I did.
• 38:25
  But OK, embarrassing. All right, moving on.
• 38:28
  OK, what do you got? Well, I do have to tell you this
• 38:30
  story, OK, I Speaking of banks. OK, which we weren't.
• 38:37
  We weren't. Speaking of, the other morning I
• 38:40
  pulled into my parking spot. You're out of control.
• 38:43
  At my bank and I, I did park in my parking lot in my parking
• 38:48
  spot and I and facing the, we have a, you know, the building
• 38:55
  to the right and then we have grass, a grassy area next to it
• 38:59
  to the left. If you're facing the bank and
• 39:01
  there's a Evergreen tree planted in the middle of this, this
• 39:06
  green grassy area. And if you looking straight
• 39:10
  back, you'll see the drive through lane that comes around
• 39:13
  the back of the bank. OK.
• 39:15
  And I see the most beautiful cardinal word Wow, sitting on
• 39:20
  the curb of the drive we're. Talking about the.
• 39:22
  Cardinals, that's true. Better transition, even better
• 39:25
  segue as I see this Cardinal bird, he's sitting on the curb
• 39:30
  of the drive through lane, right?
• 39:31
  OK. And the sun is hitting him and
• 39:33
  he's almost like glowing. He's beautiful.
• 39:36
  It is so beautiful. And I'm like.
• 39:39
  Look at you. You're so.
• 39:40
  Gorgeous. And I want to take a picture,
• 39:42
  but my phone is crap and I try to zoom in.
• 39:44
  It's too grainy. You can't really see it Good.
• 39:47
  I'm like, damn, that's not going to be a good picture.
• 39:49
  But if I get out of the car, the minute I close the door, you
• 39:53
  know, you slam your door, it's probably going to fly away,
• 39:54
  right? So I'm not going to be able to
• 39:56
  get a good And I'm like and of course if I even try to walk
• 39:59
  closer. Yeah, it's not going to be a
• 40:02
  good picture, no, or it's going to fly away.
• 40:04
  Well, that well and that's why it won't be a good.
• 40:06
  Picture because it will be gone because it'll be gone.
• 40:12
  So I'm like darn, he's going to fly away.
• 40:14
  But it's so beautiful. At least I'm happy I got to see
• 40:16
  it get out of the car. I'm going to I go, you know,
• 40:19
  shut the door. Doesn't fly away.
• 40:21
  I'm like, oh, I walk up onto the sidewalk.
• 40:25
  I walk a little bit into the grass.
• 40:27
  OK, doesn't fly away. OK.
• 40:30
  I'm like, oh, OK, So I mean, it's just, you know, a bit of a
• 40:34
  distance. So it's not like it's super
• 40:35
  close to me, OK, And I'm not getting super close to it.
• 40:38
  Sure. So I kind of walk into the grass
• 40:40
  a little bit and then I zoom in. OK, I'm on the edge of my.
• 40:43
  Seat and I take the picture. Do you want to see the picture?
• 40:45
  Sure way to see it. It's a red flag.
• 40:54
  It's not a gargle bar at all. It's a red flag stuck into the
• 40:59
  ground. There's somebody I can call for
• 41:06
  you. I was like, that's not even a
• 41:09
  Cardinal. That's a red flag.
• 41:12
  He's. A brave.
• 41:12
  That's a brave bird. No wonder he wasn't flying away.
• 41:16
  It's not even a bird. Oh.
• 41:19
  Listen, I'll post. A picture so you can see my
• 41:21
  cardinal. It's not a cardinal, it's a
• 41:24
  little red flag. Someone tapped, tapped, tapped
• 41:26
  into the ground. I at what point?
• 41:32
  Not actually. You got up there, took the photo
• 41:35
  and then looked at it on your phone.
• 41:36
  Did you know you didn't know until that moment that it was a
• 41:38
  flag? Boy, I went.
• 41:42
  That's not a Cardinal. But you can see where the shape
• 41:44
  of. It is kind of deceiving from a
• 41:47
  distance and if you have macular degeneration.
• 41:50
  Take my glasses off, you know, and it just becomes a blur, blur
• 41:54
  of a shape, you know, if I I thought that any red blur could
• 41:58
  be a cardinal bird. Yeah, I could.
• 42:00
  I could see where you're going. God damn it.
• 42:04
  I was like, my God, Can you imagine when I realized it's not
• 42:08
  a cardinal bird? I was like, and it I was just
• 42:11
  like, I honestly was just stood there.
• 42:15
  I would, I think I would be, I'd be reconsidering my life.
• 42:18
  What else can you do? I just start laughing because
• 42:20
  it's just the stupidest fucking thing.
• 42:23
  It's pretty funny. It's pretty funny.
• 42:26
  And then I just went into the bank and went great, that's
• 42:28
  awesome. What a way to flag?
• 42:30
  That's way great. Way to start my day.
• 42:32
  Yeah. So that was the random thing I
• 42:36
  needed to tell you. I've been sitting on that one
• 42:37
  for a week. But the also this other story I
• 42:40
  have to tell you, not this weekend, but the weekend before
• 42:46
  I was over in Saint Louis because we were had a show at
• 42:49
  the Fox and it was Phantom of the Opera.
• 42:52
  And it's my ultimate favorite, favorite musical that of all
• 42:57
  time is my first one that I saw live at the Fox and it holds up.
• 43:02
  It never gets old. You know, and I, and I have
• 43:05
  said, I've said this before and I think I want to stick, stick
• 43:07
  by what I said, that it's, it is the perfect musical.
• 43:14
  Yeah. Especially to see at the Fox
• 43:18
  because you just it's the the muse and we've already talked
• 43:25
  about this on the musical episode, but our podcast, yeah,
• 43:29
  episode. That's right, the musical
• 43:30
  episode. But but that it's the perfect
• 43:34
  musical. Especially to see at the Fox
• 43:36
  because it's an old timey theatre and gorgeous.
• 43:39
  It's gorgeous. And the musical is set in a
• 43:42
  theatre. And so you are immediately like
• 43:44
  you're not just watching a musical, you are more or less a
• 43:48
  part. Of the musical you are, you're
• 43:50
  immersed in it. Just by sitting there, it's
• 43:51
  great. The most incredible show so it's
• 43:54
  it absolutely is my favorite I. Love it I, it's one of those
• 43:57
  things that's like, you know, I, I like the phantom of the opera.
• 44:00
  Of course I love it and and you don't see it for a while because
• 44:04
  it's not coming around all the time.
• 44:05
  We're not going to see it every single time.
• 44:06
  Doesn't. Travel every year.
• 44:07
  No and and so it's like, oh man, like I, you know, they love this
• 44:10
  musical. And I had talked it up to to
• 44:13
  listener Taylor to this friend Tyler and and she did not like
• 44:19
  musicals at all when we when. I met her.
• 44:21
  She was big. She had a big thing about like
• 44:23
  why are they singing? Just have God damn.
• 44:25
  This conversation would go over 5 minutes ago.
• 44:27
  We weren't doing like a tap break.
• 44:29
  Christ. And I was like no you don't
• 44:34
  understand, just don't understand.
• 44:35
  So I forced her to listen one I know.
• 44:38
  So I forced her to listen to Hamilton cuz that had come out
• 44:40
  about the same time. When it's a good one too.
• 44:42
  That was good too, as we know. And then when we went and saw
• 44:45
  six, I was like, this is amazing.
• 44:47
  And yeah. 6 is amazing. As we're driving up to the
• 44:49
  medieval times for my 30th birthday, she was in the car
• 44:52
  with us and so we had her trapped.
• 44:54
  Oh, she was trapped. You're right.
• 44:55
  And her kid trapped. She had no say.
• 44:57
  She could, and she's sitting in the back room, so we're playing
• 45:01
  the music. For her, the.
• 45:03
  Music So we'd play a song and I'd pause and I'd be like, OK,
• 45:05
  so here's the historical context.
• 45:07
  Remember what's going on. You have to know you have to
• 45:09
  know the historical context behind each wife or her kids.
• 45:11
  And it makes more sense, right? And I was like, I'm sorry, this
• 45:13
  is like ruining your immersion. She's like no no, like this is
• 45:15
  the I need this information. It's true.
• 45:17
  It's true. And she loved the, she loved it.
• 45:20
  It's incredible. And so, and when that came back
• 45:23
  last year or the year before, yeah, we of course, we took her
• 45:25
  to go see that one. She loved it.
• 45:26
  That was the first show she'd ever seen, the first musical.
• 45:29
  She was held up and she loved it.
• 45:30
  And she did love it. And I was, you know, it'll.
• 45:32
  Be back, it'll be back. Well, I was worried because it
• 45:34
  ended on Broadway. It did at one time was the
• 45:37
  longest running musical like of. All time.
• 45:38
  I think it still is. I don't know, I think I thought
• 45:40
  Lion King might have surpassed it.
• 45:42
  Let's I'll find out. Do the Google I know find out I.
• 45:45
  Think it's still cuz I was just looking at that.
• 45:46
  Sometimes, a lot of times, let's put it that way, if a show ends
• 45:50
  on Broadway, it doesn't travel. It doesn't have.
• 45:51
  Traveling show then and we were, I was so worried it was not
• 45:56
  going to travel anymore and I'm like, no, it's my favorite.
• 46:00
  The The Phantom of the Opera is is the longest running musical
• 46:04
  on Broadway, having played 13,981 performances over 35
• 46:09
  years before closing April of 2023.
• 46:11
  I couldn't. When it closed, I was
• 46:12
  devastated. I was like, no, you can't close.
• 46:15
  As of early 2026, the 1996 revival of Chicago holds the
• 46:19
  title for the longest running show.
• 46:21
  Currently playing, still running, but that debuted in 96,
• 46:26
  so it's got quite a few years to catch up.
• 46:29
  First going to Scissor Pass and that's still.
• 46:31
  Running Wow, okay, I thought Lion King had.
• 46:34
  I thought. I don't know where I heard that
• 46:36
  Lion King had overtaken it, but which is also an incredible
• 46:39
  show, so no hate to let. No, no, the well, so it's the
• 46:43
  family effort's got 13,981, Chicago 96 revival is got
• 46:48
  11,500, shows The Lion King is behind that 11,001. 128.
• 46:53
  And then Wicked after that at 8667.
• 46:56
  OK, OK, Chicago, Lion King, Wicked are all still running.
• 46:59
  Yes they are, you're right. But well, so we had to take Tay
• 47:03
  to the to see the phantom and I was so glad that she could come
• 47:08
  because it's, it's just mind blowing.
• 47:11
  What a wonderful, incredible show.
• 47:14
  And she was absolutely adorable. And I loved that she loved it
• 47:18
  and she loved it, of course. And she would love when you when
• 47:21
  you when you recommend something to someone, it kind of makes you
• 47:24
  a little bit nervous because it's like they don't like it.
• 47:26
  They're. Going to think I have terrible
• 47:27
  taste now. Legit.
• 47:28
  And but when they love it, then it's just, it's so awesome.
• 47:31
  You're so happy to share, you know, this awesome thing that
• 47:34
  you love with someone else. So yeah.
• 47:35
  And that's, and I was like, I'm sitting there and I'm watching
• 47:38
  like, Oh my God, because I haven't seen it in a while.
• 47:40
  Yeah. And so, you know, part of he's
• 47:43
  like, I, I know that this show is good.
• 47:46
  And then when you're sitting there before it starts, you're
• 47:47
  like, maybe I was over. Maybe I was over blowing it.
• 47:51
  Maybe what if I was wrong? And then it starts and then I'm
• 47:54
  like, Nope, I was right. I've never been wrong.
• 47:56
  Ever. Never.
• 47:57
  You've never been wrong. If you haven't seen the Phantom,
• 47:59
  you've got to go see family. You got to go see family Opera.
• 48:01
  You don't see any other show, right?
• 48:03
  And it and see, now, of course, it's my opinion that that is the
• 48:06
  perfect musical. Nope, that is factual, I think.
• 48:11
  All right, you heard it here first.
• 48:12
  It's factual. An objective third party.
• 48:15
  My mom said that I'm right. It's the best show ever.
• 48:20
  It I I. It's definitely, it's definitely
• 48:23
  up there. I think as far as my some of my
• 48:25
  favorite musicals, but I, I don't know for sure what I would
• 48:29
  say, you know? Honestly, we have seen some
• 48:32
  incredible shows. Yeah.
• 48:34
  And I'm like, go into my head, someone's going to make me say
• 48:37
  my favorite. That's so hard.
• 48:38
  Right, I think, I think in my head I would like in my knee
• 48:41
  jerk reaction would just to be to say the fan of the opera,
• 48:43
  because I think it's effective, but but.
• 48:44
  Truly, I was like. It's got it all.
• 48:47
  It's it's just everything. It's but it's a special offense,
• 48:50
  you know, it's the first show I ever saw live like that.
• 48:53
  And I grew up watching musicals because my mom likes.
• 48:55
  Musicals, yeah, right. And you, you grew up when you
• 48:57
  were watching them as. Well, as a kid, you, you are
• 49:00
  immersed in your mom and your dad's music and, and the shows
• 49:04
  they like and, you know, that kind of thing.
• 49:06
  Did you get older? And then you have, you know,
• 49:08
  obviously we like, we didn't make you watch things that we
• 49:11
  only we let you watch cartoons. Well, of course, of course, but.
• 49:13
  But no, but that's like you're, you listen to the music your
• 49:15
  parents like when you're growing up and you listen to.
• 49:18
  The shows that you know they watch, yes, because sometimes,
• 49:21
  sometimes we want to watch TV too, but so you're, you know,
• 49:26
  you're stuck. You're going to watch musicals
• 49:27
  because I love them and that's fine.
• 49:28
  And I watch them as a. Kid I also I also quite like
• 49:30
  them. Yeah.
• 49:31
  And so I don't know, that's just the thing in our family that we
• 49:35
  just, we just love. But the first one I saw live on
• 49:39
  stage, not counting a high school production, let's put it
• 49:42
  that way, you know, because I did.
• 49:44
  Go a professional production. At the Fox in this amazing,
• 49:47
  glorious, incredible theatre time theatre.
• 49:50
  I was just talking to my parents about the theatre because I
• 49:53
  said, did you guys ever see like a live show there or was it
• 49:55
  because I can remember them telling me they went to see The
• 49:58
  Sound of Music as a movie? Yeah, it was a movie.
• 50:04
  Theater. And I said, did they do live
• 50:05
  productions and things there when you were younger or was it
• 50:07
  just mainly a movie theater? And they're like, it was a movie
• 50:09
  theater. That's crazy.
• 50:10
  Isn't it crazy? It's like the most.
• 50:12
  Grand, beautiful theater. Yeah, it was for movies.
• 50:17
  Did I tell you I may have already said this?
• 50:19
  Listeners sorry. And listener Erica, if I have
• 50:21
  this wrong, I also apologize. But did I tell you that listener
• 50:25
  Erica got married at the Fox? Are you for real?
• 50:30
  I believe it was during COVID and they they had their their
• 50:33
  wedding at the Fox. I'm stunned.
• 50:36
  I I can't say I'm stunned speechless because we're it's a
• 50:38
  podcast and that would be very ineffective.
• 50:40
  But if I would have known that that was an option, I would have
• 50:44
  a 100% done that. That's incredible.
• 50:47
  I'd literally consider the Fox my happy place.
• 50:50
  And when I walk inside those doors, it I'm just very, it
• 50:54
  makes me feel very happy. Yeah.
• 50:56
  I was having a really, really rough week the week before we
• 50:59
  went to see Phantom and just man, it was a tough week and
• 51:05
  that was our show there's. Her.
• 51:08
  Oh my God, that's incredible. I love it.
• 51:11
  She just showed me a picture. You have to ask her if we can
• 51:14
  post it. Yeah, get her permission.
• 51:16
  They put the starring. Oh my.
• 51:18
  Gosh, that's incredible. I love it that oh, that's
• 51:24
  amazing. You're going.
• 51:25
  I'm going to tell Sam that she's.
• 51:27
  Going to love that now again, OK, and I I'm going to confirm
• 51:33
  these facts with Erica before I listen to Erica before I post
• 51:36
  this podcast. I've got time to do that.
• 51:38
  I think it was during COVID. And so of course you can't have
• 51:41
  the shows. And so you could you could do
• 51:43
  things, it was easier to do things like you could do
• 51:45
  something like that. And but yeah, so that's like,
• 51:47
  you know, it's amazing, right? I mean, you.
• 51:49
  Probably can still do it in offseason, but when the oh, I'm
• 51:52
  sure. But during this the the season,
• 51:55
  you know, it's kind of like a school year.
• 51:57
  Yeah. It runs from fall to to spring.
• 52:01
  Yeah. They're they're they're tight.
• 52:02
  Yeah. I don't know, cuz like we go to
• 52:04
  a Sunday matinee. So yeah.
• 52:06
  Yeah, I think, I think they run on the show seven days a week.
• 52:08
  Yeah. But yeah.
• 52:10
  That's incredible. Isn't it fun?
• 52:11
  I love it. Oh, that She and I were talking
• 52:13
  about musicals. That made my day.
• 52:14
  She and I were talking about musicals this past Monday and I
• 52:17
  got back. Well, I'll tell you what, Sam
• 52:19
  and I, you know, you just, you honestly can forget how much,
• 52:23
  how incredible. Yeah.
• 52:24
  The Phantom of the Opera is because we sit down, the show
• 52:28
  starts, you know, and it's it starts with with the auction,
• 52:31
  the beginning at the beginning of the show.
• 52:32
  If you've never seen it, I won't spoil much after that.
• 52:34
  But then that iconic music, the the organ hits you and you get
• 52:42
  and it just and we had a live orchestra in the pit this time
• 52:46
  and it's. Do you not have that every time?
• 52:48
  No, you don't always have. Well, no, no phantom you always.
• 52:51
  Have live. That's what I meant.
• 52:52
  I was like, I think if you go again, the Phantom, the Opera is
• 52:56
  the perfect show because you get the orchestra, there's special
• 52:59
  effects, amazing. There's opera, there's other
• 53:02
  songs, there's other songs, there's songs, there's singing,
• 53:05
  there's dancing, there's funny. The only thing that's missing is
• 53:08
  a tap break. It's true, there is no.
• 53:10
  Tap, but you know, there's a little.
• 53:11
  There's a little ballet break, which is cool.
• 53:14
  It's fair, but it's also quite funny.
• 53:15
  There's very funny parts. Yeah, it's very cool.
• 53:19
  It also gets you in the fields when she sings wishing you were
• 53:23
  somehow here. Again, Oh my God, the tears
• 53:25
  just. Just start coming and Sam and I
• 53:30
  and Mayor are literally holding hands during that part and we're
• 53:34
  all crying and it's, it's just incredible.
• 53:37
  It's got everything. But it just honestly, after
• 53:40
  having a bad week and then you go see that show, I'm like that
• 53:43
  just, it just, it's everything. And it just made me feel so much
• 53:46
  better. And I was like, if that had been
• 53:47
  any other show, it might not have been able to Get Me Out of
• 53:50
  that, Get Me Out of my bad mood. But I'll tell you what that did.
• 53:53
  Maybe we'll post a picture of us at the Phantom.
• 53:55
  Absolutely, because I think we both took photos of us at the
• 53:57
  Phantom. OK, cool.
• 53:58
  For sure. For sure.
• 54:00
  So I have. So after that show, we met up
• 54:04
  with Liv and a couple of her friends and they wanted to go.
• 54:08
  Where do they want to go? I can't remember.
• 54:09
  We went, but we ended up at the Foundry.
• 54:13
  OK. And there's a couple of shops
• 54:16
  there, whole bunch and all kinds of different things.
• 54:18
  And there's a food court. Yes.
• 54:20
  And so there's this really cute, very girly shop there.
• 54:23
  What is the name of that shop? I didn't take a picture of it
• 54:27
  and they sell all kinds. She she sells all kinds of like
• 54:30
  female owned, which is awesome. And then they hell yeah, there's
• 54:32
  a couple locations there. There's an actual I got a flyer
• 54:37
  that I had got so I can show it to you.
• 54:38
  OK, And I left it downstairs. So you know, I'm not don't have
• 54:42
  it to. To show it to you, off to we're
• 54:44
  this is we're really cooking right now.
• 54:45
  I'm I'm absolutely on it. I'm on top of my game.
• 54:50
  I'm going to let me see if the Google will will tell me.
• 54:54
  OK. The name of this store I can't
• 54:56
  remember it, but they have like Taylor Swift nights at like
• 55:05
  their bar location. Shut the fuck up and I'm like we
• 55:08
  golden gems. It's called golden gems is the
• 55:10
  name of the store. Well, OK, I'm.
• 55:12
  On my way. And it's very cute.
• 55:14
  The store is very girly and it's very cute.
• 55:17
  And so we ended up going in there to check it out and it's
• 55:20
  and. All the heated rivalry stuff,
• 55:22
  I'm cracking up. Yeah, it's and the, the, it's
• 55:25
  very, I mean, it's just the cutest little store.
• 55:28
  And so we loved it. And they have, I don't know,
• 55:31
  they have these little, they have these, I don't know if it's
• 55:36
  a karaoke night or what it is, I can't remember, but they have a
• 55:40
  Taylor Swift night. Hell yeah.
• 55:41
  And so I got the Flyers so we can go.
• 55:43
  We I'm like, we got to take Abby.
• 55:45
  We got to take Abby to this. So I love it.
• 55:47
  Anyway, while we were there, we went over to eat at the food
• 55:51
  court because we were hungry and there's tons of different food
• 55:57
  places and we all get some food. And but we came around, we kind
• 56:01
  of like, you know how you kind of walk around and just look at
• 56:03
  the different food places before you make up your mind.
• 56:05
  And we come around the corner and there is this place that
• 56:09
  sells like it's all about like eggs, I guess.
• 56:14
  And I didn't take a picture of the name of the restaurant, but
• 56:16
  I took a picture of this little slogan on the wall because it
• 56:19
  says, can you read that? Welcome to the hen house.
• 56:21
  Welcome to the hen house. OK.
• 56:24
  And that triggered a memory. And I'm standing in the middle
• 56:27
  of the court laughing my ass. I think I know where this is
• 56:30
  going. Because that says welcome to the
• 56:32
  hen house. And it reminded me of the story.
• 56:34
  So I'm going to tell you the story, even though it's going to
• 56:36
  make me sound really stupid. OK, but I already made myself
• 56:40
  sound really stupid because I told you the story about the
• 56:44
  kernel bird. That turned out to be a reply.
• 56:45
  So you know, not not sure how much more stupid I can end up
• 56:50
  sounding. OK, but what were you going to
• 56:52
  tell me? No, no, I was going to say I
• 56:54
  think I know where this is going.
• 56:55
  OK. I also realize that this web
• 56:57
  that they have free phone Wallpapers that you could you
• 57:00
  can download the the so they're they're just free.
• 57:03
  But this one says spooky mom. And so I thought that that you
• 57:06
  could definitely. That's excellent.
• 57:08
  I could use that one. Yeah, that's a pretty good she.
• 57:10
  She has all kinds of fun stickers in the store in that in
• 57:12
  that store. So that was really fun.
• 57:14
  We all got some anyway, when I was a kid, we were going to, we,
• 57:18
  we had a group that the, the CYO Catholic Youth Organization.
• 57:21
  It was, it was a fun classic, the fun youth group.
• 57:23
  And we'd go do, do fun stuff. And we also did a lot of, a lot
• 57:26
  of access service and helped a lot of people.
• 57:28
  It was a it was a good. Yeah, a good.
• 57:30
  Organization. The CYO.
• 57:32
  Absolutely, we did good things but and they kept the kids off
• 57:34
  the streets and then away from the drugs.
• 57:37
  Not you, apparently. But you know me.
• 57:39
  But you know, we tried so. Some kids, I'm sure, weren't on.
• 57:42
  Drugs. Some kids weren't.
• 57:43
  I was not on drugs. No, no hate.
• 57:46
  If you were, you know, whatever I got, who am I to judge?
• 57:48
  Who am I to judge? Right.
• 57:50
  So. You know the amount of drugs I'm
• 57:52
  on right now? Exactly, but those are because
• 57:54
  I'm old and decrepit. But anyway, so we pile into this
• 58:00
  car of this woman. Her name was Celeste, and we
• 58:03
  love her. And she was like our adult
• 58:07
  chaperone moderator, whatever you want to call her.
• 58:09
  Yeah, she was wonderful. She had taught for many years.
• 58:12
  And when she retired, she took on this role of corralling these
• 58:16
  teenagers and taking us all kinds of places.
• 58:18
  And God bless Celeste. Absolutely.
• 58:20
  God bless her. We loved her.
• 58:22
  She was amazing, still still hanging on.
• 58:24
  She's like over 100 years old. Are you kidding me?
• 58:26
  I am not kidding. God bless Celeste.
• 58:28
  She is still still hanging in there.
• 58:30
  Celeste is the best. So I've got, let me tell you
• 58:33
  something, Celeste, they've really learned some legit legit.
• 58:36
  We, I remember we celebrated her 100th birthday like 2 years ago
• 58:39
  already. Like it's been a while.
• 58:40
  Do you remember when you celebrated?
• 58:41
  Your great aunt's 100th birthday with a surprise party, this was.
• 58:44
  Not a good idea. It was her 90th.
• 58:46
  And so her 90th. Somebody did arrange a surprise
• 58:48
  party. For a 90 year old woman, are you
• 58:51
  out of your mom? Which I questioned.
• 58:52
  I questioned. It was a soft surprise.
• 58:54
  I think they warned her before she walked in the door.
• 58:56
  So you know. It was all good.
• 58:57
  Yeah, we didn't like part of. We didn't scream at her and
• 59:00
  blow. Yeah, they're throwing this
• 59:01
  company in the face anyway. OK, so back to this.
• 59:03
  We're all, we're literally piled in her car, several of us, and
• 59:08
  we're driving to some event and I don't even remember what it
• 59:11
  was. We're going to some destination,
• 59:13
  don't even remember what it was. And she had this big old boat of
• 59:16
  a car. So there's a whole bunch of us
• 59:18
  crammed in there. We're little teenagers.
• 59:19
  So we're squeezed in there. Nobody's wearing a seat belt.
• 59:22
  And there were no laws. There were no laws then.
• 59:25
  So what year is this? 19 million in the 80s?
• 59:29
  There might have been a law by then, but who knows?
• 59:31
  So, but we are heading to, we decide we're going to meet up at
• 59:39
  the hen house. OK, OK, so several Cyos involved
• 59:44
  and from different parishes and we're going to meet up at the
• 59:48
  hen house and we're driving. I have no idea.
• 59:51
  We're in Oakville of all places, but you know, kind of middle of
• 59:54
  nowhere. But we're going to meet at the
• 59:55
  hen house and I have no idea what the hen house is.
• 59:58
  I don't know. And when I was a kid, well,
• 1:00:01
  maybe I should say it first. We pull up to the hen house and
• 1:00:05
  I discover it is a restaurant. OK, big old barn looking
• 1:00:09
  restaurant. Well that says the hen house on
• 1:00:11
  it. And I go what Where's the
• 1:00:15
  convent? And everyone turns to me and
• 1:00:20
  looks at me and says what convent?
• 1:00:23
  Why the fuck? I'm like, I thought we were
• 1:00:25
  going to a convent and they were like, no.
• 1:00:28
  Why would you think that? I thought.
• 1:00:30
  That and I said because. Why would you think that, Van
• 1:00:34
  Anhorn? They said they used to call me
• 1:00:36
  when I was a kid. They used to call me and we
• 1:00:38
  would have a girl sleepover. My mom would call it a hen
• 1:00:41
  party. And so we're going to the hen
• 1:00:45
  house. I'm thinking it's all women.
• 1:00:47
  It's got to be a convent. This is where my mind went.
• 1:00:53
  And I remember being incredibly embarrassed in front of everyone
• 1:00:58
  because they were like, no, this is not a convent, It's a
• 1:01:03
  restaurant. So that was that was quite
• 1:01:07
  embarrassing. But when I come around the
• 1:01:09
  corner in the foundry and I see the sign, welcome to the hen
• 1:01:13
  house. I was like, hell, yeah, that's
• 1:01:16
  awesome. So I had to take a picture.
• 1:01:17
  That's very funny. And I'm standing in the middle
• 1:01:20
  of this food court laughing my ass off and no one knows why I'm
• 1:01:24
  laughing because no one get no one finds why to the hen house
• 1:01:27
  as funny as me. I knew immediate.
• 1:01:30
  I knew immediately what you why you were about with your I had a
• 1:01:34
  stroke. Start over.
• 1:01:37
  Do you smell burning toast? Yeah, no, I I didn't immediately
• 1:01:41
  when you said the wall of the hen house exactly what?
• 1:01:43
  What? You remember hearing that story,
• 1:01:45
  yes, because my friends gave me shit about that to this day.
• 1:01:49
  They they gave me such a hard time about that because it was
• 1:01:51
  like, wow, that was very stupid of you.
• 1:01:54
  Where I mean that was a massive leap that I made.
• 1:01:58
  So but you know, I don't know. I don't know why my mind works
• 1:02:01
  that way. It just does.
• 1:02:03
  Who knows, who knows, who can tell?
• 1:02:05
  I, I was trying to help you out here and, and find, find a, a, a
• 1:02:13
  word that or, or some, you know, context between hen house and
• 1:02:19
  nunnery. Because here's the thing, and I
• 1:02:21
  think it's mainly because I've just grown up with you and I've
• 1:02:23
  heard the story before, but I've also always associated the hen
• 1:02:26
  house and the nunnery kind of thinking of the same thing.
• 1:02:29
  Now I will say, are you aware that a chicken coop, you could
• 1:02:32
  also call it a hennery, which does sound like a nunnery.
• 1:02:35
  So I'm going to I'm going to give it to you on that one that
• 1:02:38
  there is that there is a possible.
• 1:02:43
  You know, misunderstanding. I never, I've never heard of any
• 1:02:48
  of that stuff. It was just literally my mom
• 1:02:50
  just called it a hen party whenever we had a sleepover with
• 1:02:53
  all the girls. And so I'm like, well, a hen
• 1:02:56
  house has got to be all women. That's really fun.
• 1:02:58
  What else is all women? A convent.
• 1:03:04
  That is a natural deduction that I would that anyone would make.
• 1:03:09
  There's. OK, I I'm gonna, I'm gonna take
• 1:03:12
  you. Through this step by step.
• 1:03:14
  Because my brain just made 55, my brain just made five
• 1:03:16
  different leaps and. See, and unfortunately, you
• 1:03:19
  you've inherited the genes for me, so your brain is gonna make
• 1:03:23
  those leaps. So I I'm gonna I'm gonna walk
• 1:03:25
  you through the steps. I step.
• 1:03:26
  OK, OK. OK.
• 1:03:27
  OK. So you said, you said what else?
• 1:03:32
  Is all women OK. And so then I immediately went
• 1:03:35
  to a brothel. OK, now hold on, let's stick
• 1:03:39
  with. Me go in that.
• 1:03:40
  Direction. Stick with me.
• 1:03:41
  OK, So then I went brothel strip club, and then I remembered
• 1:03:45
  Larry Flint's as I'm driving home now hold on, hold on.
• 1:03:49
  Larry Flint's Hustler Club is a strip club, of course, that is
• 1:03:52
  on on the side of the road at six on 60 you can see.
• 1:03:55
  It I'll let it out when I'm driving home.
• 1:03:57
  Now here's the thing. I drive by this every single
• 1:04:01
  day. True, and right now 64 is under
• 1:04:04
  a shit load of construction. It is, and it's a pain in my
• 1:04:06
  fucking. Ass a pain?
• 1:04:07
  Yeah, every day because they don't ever fix anything.
• 1:04:09
  It feels like they just keep tearing it up.
• 1:04:11
  But yeah, correct. OK, Larry.
• 1:04:13
  Flynt's advertising cracked my shit.
• 1:04:16
  Oh, OK, the other day. What is it?
• 1:04:18
  I'm driving OK now imagine if you will, it's like 43445 maybe
• 1:04:23
  when yeah PM when I'm driving home.
• 1:04:25
  So like, you know, it's not like in the middle of the night or
• 1:04:28
  anything like that. Sure.
• 1:04:28
  And the and the thing like comes up there like billboard lights
• 1:04:31
  up and it says like stuck in traffic, pull over, take it
• 1:04:35
  wherever. Basically because of all the
• 1:04:36
  traffic. It was basically like if you're
• 1:04:38
  stuck in traffic out here on 64, we are pull over, come on in.
• 1:04:43
  Just you wait out the traffic at the Larry.
• 1:04:44
  Plant. Why wouldn't you?
• 1:04:46
  I. Was dying.
• 1:04:47
  I was like, I tell you what, Larry Plant go with a plus
• 1:04:50
  advertising. Absolutely.
• 1:04:51
  That's that's a damn good strategy.
• 1:04:53
  It is that is I. Bet you got somebody with that.
• 1:04:55
  I guarantee you got somebody with that.
• 1:04:57
  You almost got me with that. And that was funny just just for
• 1:05:01
  the story alone, just for the but I didn't pull over.
• 1:05:04
  I kept going. I kept going.
• 1:05:05
  I didn't have any cash on me. That's.
• 1:05:09
  True. That's not the only reason you
• 1:05:11
  had a tip with. That's not the only reason I
• 1:05:12
  didn't pull over. You can't possibly tip.
• 1:05:14
  If you don't have well and I wouldn't I.
• 1:05:16
  Would never they have an age? I would not disre, I would never
• 1:05:19
  disrespect those ladies by not tipping.
• 1:05:21
  No, they're working hard, man. And as we know, if the strippers
• 1:05:25
  ain't making money, nobody's making money.
• 1:05:28
  What's that from? What the fuck is that from?
• 1:05:31
  Why do we say that? There was a girl came into the
• 1:05:33
  bank who worked that, who worked that.
• 1:05:40
  She had moved here from Alaska. And she's we have gone full
• 1:05:44
  circle on this podcast back to alas.
• 1:05:48
  Like this was almost planned. Not even a little.
• 1:05:50
  Bit not even a little. Bit we fly, we like to fly by
• 1:05:53
  the seat of our pants here, people.
• 1:05:54
  Anyway, yeah, a girl came to the bank, opened an account and
• 1:05:57
  deposited her, her ones and her $1.00 bills into the account
• 1:06:03
  that no one wanted to count. Yeah, no one wanted to touch any
• 1:06:07
  of that money. It's hard girl.
• 1:06:09
  She left and we counted with rubber gloves.
• 1:06:10
  So. But she's working hard.
• 1:06:12
  She worked working hard and she was hilarious because she was.
• 1:06:16
  She eventually then moved back to Alaska because she said that
• 1:06:19
  she, if the strippers ain't making money, ain't nobody
• 1:06:22
  making money. And she couldn't make no money
• 1:06:23
  down here really. She says you make a lot of money
• 1:06:26
  stripping in Alaska. I was like.
• 1:06:28
  Oh, I bet you do. What else is there to do with?
• 1:06:30
  This stuff absolutely nothing and the the ratio of men to
• 1:06:33
  women there is significant significant that's exactly it's
• 1:06:38
  significant that's exactly right that's really fucking funny she
• 1:06:41
  could make more money up there so she went back and I was like
• 1:06:44
  you know what entrepreneur CEO we.
• 1:06:49
  Love a self starter, A woman who can read the market.
• 1:06:53
  You know what? And you know what?
• 1:06:55
  More power to her. That's fine.
• 1:06:56
  That's fine. I did see this funny cake.
• 1:06:59
  Why? It's a cake.
• 1:07:00
  Why it's on a cake, I don't know.
• 1:07:01
  OK, But it goes with the money. It goes with the money.
• 1:07:03
  Yeah. OK.
• 1:07:04
  I tell you because I had some people that I had a person at my
• 1:07:08
  work recently that stuck her nose in my business and I didn't
• 1:07:12
  appreciate it. I didn't appreciate it.
• 1:07:15
  She wasn't very nice to me and I'm nice to everybody at my
• 1:07:18
  work. I am.
• 1:07:20
  I wish. Melissa's gonna see my face.
• 1:07:22
  Was not good, but I am nice. I am professional.
• 1:07:26
  I believe that at the least professional.
• 1:07:29
  I'm always professional, always. I'm not.
• 1:07:32
  You're at a place of business. Don't be mean.
• 1:07:34
  That's that's called wait, listen, none of us, none of us
• 1:07:37
  want to be here. Most of us want to be.
• 1:07:40
  At we all got to get to the date, so being mean isn't going
• 1:07:44
  to get you anything. For one, people are going to
• 1:07:46
  respond better if you're nice. But yeah, I had someone who
• 1:07:49
  wasn't very nice to me and insulted me and so.
• 1:07:53
  I hit her car and ran. I did not.
• 1:07:55
  So I said I'm going to send her a 1099 form because she's
• 1:07:59
  sticking her nose in my business.
• 1:08:08
  Pretty good. I like that somebody put it on a
• 1:08:11
  cake. Somebody.
• 1:08:14
  Why? Why is on a cake?
• 1:08:16
  Forever was in my business with you.
• 1:08:19
  That's hilarious. That's really good.
• 1:08:21
  I'll post. I'll post.
• 1:08:23
  OK, OK. I thought that was.
• 1:08:25
  Hilarious. That's really good.
• 1:08:28
  Oh my God. So that, yeah, that was pretty.
• 1:08:30
  That was pretty good. That was pretty.
• 1:08:31
  Good, I'm writing this. Down for you.

• 1:08:40

• 1:08:44
  Well, we made it successfully through another podcast.
