very, very happy and grateful to have them on board. It is actually
1:10
you're all new home for comedy in Dallas Fort Worth. And speaking of that,
1:15
and by the way, they say something because I went to the show
1:19
where Rags was hosting a week and a half ago. It was two weeks
1:23
ago. Uh. They have a great patio, I mean like that is
1:29
they have a great bar at patio, Like it's not just a comedy club,
1:33
it is it's time. Yeah. Yeah, And then they have this
1:37
to watch sports, like, they have this thing called the dugout, which
1:38
is like this, it's basically like garage doors that open up and it's you
1:42
have couches and chairs and stuff like that, and you can rent that out.
1:47
And like two years ago for the Cowboys games, that's where I would
1:53
go and they would just let me use that Backspaceline invite everybody in full service
1:57
restaurant, full service bar, like it's fantastic. So it's not just comedy.
2:01
It's a lot of fun. We always we all hang out there too,
2:04

2:10

2:15
includes this weekend at the Dallas Comedy Club. Uh see Friday and Saturday,
2:21
September twenty ninth, and the thirtieth. Brett Ernst is headlining the Dallas Comedy
2:25
Club. It's one of those guys that you might recognize his name if you
2:30
fall a comedy. If you don't, you might recognize him by his face
2:35
as Daniel Larusso's cousin in law on Netflix's Cobra High. Yeah he's great and
2:40
by the way, yeah, I'm so good with faces. That one year
2:46
ago, one year ago when Tara and I made our move here to Saint
2:51
Thomas, or as Trey likes to call it Saint Tulsa. We were in
2:55
the Fort Lauderdale Airport or Miami, I forget where, at a Florida airport
3:02
and I saw Brett Ernst walking by, just walking by in the terminal.
3:06
I was like, hey. I didn't say anything to him because I'm not
3:08
weird. I'm just weird on my own. I didn't want to make it
3:13
weird for him. It's just weird for me. But I recognized him.
3:15
I was like, Oh, Hey, that's the that's the that's the guy
3:19
from Cobra Kai yeah, to which tears like hump. I was like,
3:23
you know, the guy that tried to h to jump Johnny and he and
3:28
his goons he had found I got their asses kicked outside of Johnny's really crummy
3:32
apartment after they were like jacking with his Camaro or something. And she's like,
3:37
oh, okay, I kind of have a I don't know what it
3:40
is. I just have a weird thing about recognizing people's faces, especially in
3:45
airports. So I recognized him. I think it was Fort Lauderdale Airport.
3:52
I've also Diane Whist saw her at the New Orleans Airport. I don't even
3:57
know who that is, she thought, you would have because it was at
4:00
night. She was wearing sunglasses afraid someone would recognize her, and the only
4:03
person in that entire terminal that recognized her was meat. And I didn't bother
4:08
going to say hi, just because she seemed kind of stuck up. She's
4:10
like, wearing sunglasses at night, don't bother me. I did you ever
4:14
see did you ever see the movie with Steve Martin? Never see Parenthood?
4:17
No? Okay, did you ever see Tray? Did you ever see that
4:26
movie? All? Right? So she was the mom of Joaquin Phoenix.
4:30
She had the short red hair. When the lights went out, they turn
4:32
it on and there was a vibrator that they were showing. It was hers.
4:35
Yeah. Also there was the TV show Life in Pieces. She was
4:40
a mom on that. Anyway, you know, I did. I did
4:44
get a really cool in Vegas. I think it was Vegas or if it
4:50
was Indianapolis, one of the two. But I was kind of went down
4:55
finding like an empty gate I could just chill by myself, and coming out
4:59
of that gate it was completely empty. There was one guy in a in
5:02
a handler and we kind of bro nodded at each other, like I know
5:06
who you are, buddy. And it was it was Kenny G. Uh,
5:11
yeah, it was amazing. We just he was why he had he
5:15
had the he had the sacks or whatever it is that he plays. I
5:16
don't know what that's called. He had he had it, I don't know.
5:24
He had in his little black case. And he was being escorted with
5:28
by a gate agent to the next gate that he was at, and I
5:30
just kind of looked up and I was like, in my head, I
5:31
went, oh, Kenny G. And I think he heard it, because
5:34
he is mystical, and I think he heard me in my head go it's
5:42
Kenny G. And he looked right at me, and we just kind of
5:44
went back at each other, and I was like, this is cool.
5:46
I was like a head not actually right now? Yeah, I just I
5:48
posted it on Facebook. I was like, nobody's gonna believe the story,
5:51
and I wouldn't make this up, but I just got a broad nod from
5:55
from Kenny G. Did he respond to it or anything? Oh no,
6:00
no, No. The only person that's ever responded he is, Yeah,
6:03
he doesn't need too, he knows the only person that ever responded to me
6:08
like that it got my agent to call me was Richard Marks. I was
6:14
in Reno. I was performing at the laugh Actory in Reno and he was
6:15
performing at the big theater downstairs. It was sold out like thirty five hundred
6:19
people, I'm sure. And the entertainment director is one who took me down
6:23
there and she's friends with him, and so we get to do the meet
6:26
and Greed. I just told he's super funny in concert, and he's like,
6:29
he cusses like a sailor and he's hilarious. He's also married to Daisy
6:31
flintest for me, Yes, he's one. He's one life. He's one.
6:36
He's one life. He has had a hit song in every decade since
6:42
the eighties. Uh, even if it's something like he wrote songs for in
6:46
Sync and he wrote songs for a couple other people. But after the meet
6:49
and Greed, I just told him, I was like, man, you're
6:51
super funny. I told him I was the comic from upstairs, and I
6:54
told you, musicians like want to be comics, and comics want to be
6:57
musicians. He flipped out. He was like that that's so great. You
7:00
really think I'm funny, And he started following me on Twitter and my agent
7:03
I'm going up the escalators. It just happened, and she goes, why
7:06
is Richard Marks following you on Twitter? Because we're bros. Now, we're
7:13
cool now, and I've invited him. We're going to start opening up for
7:15
one another. Yeah, he doesn't want to open up for my crowd.
7:21
And my crowd and Reno, they're the sweetest people in the world. But
7:25
it's a lot. It's a lot of truckers, your people, some other
7:32
famous people I've seen at the airport. In addition to the two semi randoms
7:35
I've just mentioned, the Brett Ernst Diane Whist and then also I always forget
7:41
his name. It's like, uh, the guy who co starred in the
7:45
Divergent movies, Like he's a really good looking guy. But again I was
7:48
it was it was at a Boston It was at Boston Logan Airport when we
7:51
were there years ago. I saw him walk up by. I was like,
7:54
Hey, is that guy? And no one else recognized him, like
7:57
celebrities really do. And this is true for a lot of people. No
8:00
one thinks about you the way you think about you, And that's very true
8:03
with the celebrities, but they don't realize it because so many people in their
8:07
circles are constantly thinking about them. They have a hard time grasping that right.
8:13
Yeah, he didn't. He was walking through the airport, just normal
8:16
dude. And if I think again, I was probably the only person that
8:18
recognized him, so no one was bothering him. John Goodman saw him twice.
8:22
People recognized to him because he's been in everything for so many years.
8:26
He has touched every demographic possible in some way, in a large way,
8:31
no pun intended to where he's going to be recognized by pretty much everybody now.
8:37
Had his weight shifted when you met him to do like the first time
8:39
you saw him, he was big John Goodman, and this time both times,
8:43
both times I saw him, he was big. He was big John
8:43
Goodman. And the reason why I saw him at the airport was the New
8:46
Orleans Airport twice. The reason why is because my mom was living there at
8:50
the time, and they also had a restaurant at that New Orleans Airport where
8:56
you could smoke, and so I was sitting in there smoking, I just
8:58
watched John Goodman just walk by. Oh nice, Okay, Yeah, anyway,
9:03
that's my brushes with Fami at the airport. And in a great story
9:05
should I tell them all again. Well, Diane waste Roger, did you
9:11
ever see the Bird Cage? Yes, okay, she was. She was
9:13
Gene Hackman's wife. She was the mom in Bird Cage. Okay, one
9:18
of my all time favorite movies. So that's yeah, it's such a great
9:20
movie. That's one of those movies I did. Every time I see something
9:24
about it or hears something about it, it reminds me I need to watch
9:28
that again. That's a great movie. Yeah. I also when Dan mentions
9:33
these movies, like the Divergent movies, there's those movies in my head that
9:37
I'm like, who the f watches this movie? And now I know it's
9:41
Dan, like that, I'm the reason. I am the reason that some
9:45
movies have sequels. That should be on your that should be your slogan on
9:50
every social media profile. I am the reason undeserving movies get a sequel.
9:56
Yes, because I'll give almost any movie a chance, just just ad just
10:00
for the hell of it. I love movies, and uh, I'll give
10:05
almost any movie a chance. Yeah. And just getting back to Brett Ernst,
10:09
He's one of the kindest human beings in the world. He's super funny,
10:13
he is uh, the character that he plays on Cobra Kai is not
10:18
a character that is who he is. Uh. He talks about all the
10:24
His stand up is brilliant. It's it's it's so personal about his life and
10:28
you know him and just being that that guy. He's that he's that Italian
10:31
dude that you go. I wonder if he, you know, does the
10:35
stereotypically. Yeah, that's Brett Earns and it's great. Go watch. The
10:39
shows will sell out. So so for taket info go to Dallas Dash Comedy
10:43
Club dot com Dallas Dash Comedy Club dot com. I think now they've gotten
10:46
way more than their money's worth. So let's move on to important show related
10:52
things. Rod, did you not get the gray t shirt memo about?
10:54
Did not? This is adorable. I can go change really quickly if need
10:58
be, But this is this is too cute. I think it's every at
11:03
least once a week, you guys quote inadvertently match, which I don't believe.
11:09
There's like every time it's the same thing. Well, we didn't know,
11:11
yes, we didn't like. We don't plan these things. Look for
11:16
the very first football podcast, I had a Cowboys shirt on. Trey had
11:18
a long horn and shirt on that's not totally related. It's not to me.
11:22
I don't think it's crazy to think, hey, we're gonna start a
11:26
football podcast and me, we're like a you know, a logo thing with
11:28
with my favorite football team on it. And then as far as happening to
11:33
wear this, you know, a similarly colored T shirt once a week.
11:37
I don't know what to tell you. Maybe we just have the same terrible
11:41
fashioned sense. No, I mean, a gray T shirt is always a
11:45
good look. That's why I have four of them. I think that's the
11:50
biggest thing is of my T shirts. You know, I have gray,
11:54
black, navy blue for the most part. That's yeah, great colors.
11:58
And I've got about four of each of them. And I actually when I
12:01
do my laundry, I actually I stacked them. I try to like stack
12:05
them colors so because I know I'm just gonna grab the one on the top,
12:07
so I try to, you know, mix in the colors. So
12:11
I'm not wearing black five days in a row. But see, I don't
12:13
even care about that. It's like I didn't go full Mark Zuckerberg wearing you
12:18
know, the zip up hoodie every day or the Steve Jobs or he wore
12:20
the black turtleneck every day. I get their thinking in that, because their
12:26
their approach to wearing the same thing every day was I have so many important
12:31
decisions to make every single day, Wasting any time on what to wear that
12:37
day should not be one of them. So I totally get that, and
12:39
so I kind of took a little inspiration from that, and just like like
12:41
you trad say, Okay, I like I got I got three colors of
12:45
T shirts and I just kind of rotate them, and those colors go with
12:48
almost anything. Do you really I've wondered this because that that to me,
12:54
that all started with Albert Einstein. You know, he had the same same
12:56
outfit, and I just wonder, now, like with with jobs, Okay,
13:01
maybe I'll give it to him Zuckerberg, I'm not sure about Yeah.
13:03
Are they just trying to, you know, say, basically say, oh,
13:07
yeah, we have the same traits as Albert Einstein. Look how smart
13:09
we are? You know? Is it a look at me thing? Or
13:11
do they really is that something they really do? That's actually a great question.
13:16
Are they just trying to associate themselves with that greatness with and they'd be
13:20
great on their own? I think I think at this point in both of
13:22
their careers, they're gonna they're up there as far as success is concerned.
13:26
Oh, I think Jobs was that quirky and that that committed to his his
13:31
work. That I believe that I like, I said Zuckerberg, I don't
13:35
know. I don't know that. I think he's the genius of Steve Jobs.
13:39
To me, I think Zuckerberg just wanted to wear a hoodie everywhere,
13:43
just to be an a hole where everyone else was wearing suits. I think
13:46
when when Steve Jobs was sent down from the Mothership, they gave him,
13:52
they gave him the one human outfit and had they said, you get one
13:58
skin and one outfit, don't really, yes, And so he just he
14:01
wore that every day because the other aliens would not give him more clothes.
14:05
Uh, that's what it is. And then when he quote died, when
14:09
he went back as a ball, giant ball of light into the sky,
14:13
he got to, I'm sure, get to put on his alien clothes.
14:16
Now. Well, when he was going up into the sky as the giant
14:20
ball of light, was he still wearing the turtleneck or had that been shed?
14:22
He shed his his his one his one outfit and his is the body
14:28
that they gave him. I don't see all I see him doing, not
14:31
shedding the outfit. I had to see it going from black to white as
14:35
he is, it's like it's it's kind of like he's gammed Dolf. He
14:39
goes from gray to white. If you watch Bill Burr talk about Steve Jobs,
14:46
he's like he's great. He's like he was just he was just an
14:48
a hole that just gave other nerds work. Is basically what it was,
14:54
like, Hey see this whole thing. I want every song I ever listened
14:58
to in here. I don't know how you do it, but by the
15:00
end of the day, I want to be able to listen to every song
15:01
in here. And they're like all right, he said, so so we
15:05
gotta do it. But yeah, like I would like to point out,
15:09
this is where I would be let me rephrase. I can relate to that
15:13
because there are times where I feel like I've got good ideas, but I
15:16
don't have anywhere near the technical know how to achieve some of these ideas.
15:22
So I totally get a Steve Jobs type. It's like, okay, like
15:24
you just said, rosh, yeah, I would have no idea how to
15:28
how to do the what's it's in the widgets and the thing. But I
15:30
know I want the thing. Yeah, so let me get some people that
15:33
can get me the thing, right, and you gotta give of all the
15:37
people Steve jobs. You have to think about it. Twenty five years ago,
15:39
apple stock was a dollar. Yes, and because he had left and
15:45
it was in disarray, he comes back and it's now. I mean,
15:48
I think their market cap is over a trillion. Yeah, yeah, I
15:52
mean, I mean it's just he had he had to go back and recharge,
15:56
plug in to the mothership and then come back. Is that what happened?
15:58
Yeah, he had to get a firmware update. I wonder if it's
16:04
not just us that we had that had to do the update. He's the
16:07
original iOS. I wonder if he has to agree to his terms and services.
16:15
But Barack Obama did the same thing. The only thing that he had
16:18
different was he his ties. So he's either a blue tie or a red
16:22
tie. That was the only difference. I think. I think that was
16:25
what Trump did when once he started running for office. He would just it
16:29
was mostly a red tie and an occasion, on occasion he would switch to
16:32
a blue, but it was usually a patriotic color of sorts. He never
16:34
went to a white tie though, so he know no. And then the
16:38
one time Barack Obama put a ten suit on the Fox News melted down so
16:44
they had to they had to go back to the plant. He couldn't wear
16:48
anything spring like U ever, So that's why that's why I'm convinced now,
16:53
like every shirt you see, every picture you see of him on vacation,
16:56
he's shirtless because he's like, if a tens suit and melted them down,
17:00
which I have no shirt up, Yeah, I would do that. Wait
17:04
wait until I would do that. I like, I would have no problem
17:12
going. I can wear black T shirt and jeans, blue jeans every single
17:17
like the exact same outfit every single day. I have no problem with that.
17:19
Is that every girl I've ever dated is like, why do you have
17:22
so many black T shirts? So I'm like, it's just easy, like
17:26
I don't have to worry about it, and they're like, well, if
17:29
you look so nice in orange, and I'm like, well, then buy
17:32
me something orange. And so that's the only reason other stuff happens. So
17:37
the only the only the only colors in your closet are from things of your
17:41
ex's have purchased for you, uh most for the most part. Yeah,
17:45
or its colors. They've suggested that you should wear that. I'm like,
17:48
all right, for you, I'll do that. But if it's me,
17:49
I'm black T shirt and blue jeans. Just so, so what is it
17:56
then? So if you go out on a date, are you wearing the
17:57
same thing? Yeah? I mean I don't really, I'm old. I'm
18:03
not dressing up for a date. Oh are you now past dating age like
18:06
Trey? No, I'm no, no, no, no, I'm past
18:07
getting dressed up for you. I feel like got to unload on me.
18:15
You just you just reminded me of something that I don't think we've discussed.
18:18
And just I'm gonna throw this out there and then we can get back to
18:22
it. Which is the Golden Bachelor? Oh my god, Yes, can
18:26
we not talk? That's just Dan. Have you not heard of this?
18:29
Oh no, no, I've heard of it. Okay, I've I've unfortunately
18:33
seen some of the promos. Gary, Yeah, I am petrified. Oh.
18:41
Just generationally, if if there's a bunch of gen xers and they start
18:45
acting a fool, I I the shame I'm gonna feel. It's palpable.
18:52
So is Gary. So I think I think this is what will we stopped
18:57
watching The Bachelor, like you haven't watched in a couple of years. What
19:03
I wonder about this new batch or the Golden Bachelor. Is he a boomer
19:08
or is he a gen xer? Because if it's a gen xer, I
19:11
might actually watch that. If it's a boomer situation like and then I don't
19:17
know. Well, he's mid sixties, right, I have no idea.
19:21
All I know is his name is Gary and he's the Golden Bachelor. I
19:22
have no idea about his age. I don't know what. I don't know
19:26
if he's worth anything, either financially or spiritually. I have no idea.
19:32
He's spiritually wealthy. That's how you plug him on the show. He's old
19:38
and spiritually wealthy, I said, I don't. I don't know anything about
19:41
him other than he's old. And usually when the bachelors that they get on
19:47
the show are at least somewhat financially successful, stable, whatever, and I
19:52
assume a man in his sixties is probably going to be pretty stable. I
19:55
doubt they found Gary in a refrigerator box underneath an overpass and said that's our
20:00
Golden Bachelor. He is, and I'll still feel shit. He's hey,
20:04
I'll give him credit. He looks good. He's seventy two. Seventy two.
20:07
Wow, yeah, because there's there's one of the contestants on there is
20:11
seventy two as well, And I was like, all right, I guess
20:14
they gave him a certain age range. But it's just but if we're being
20:18
honest, sorry food music from his childhood? Is that? What are we
20:27
trying to Are we trying to book a rebel ship? Sad thing is I
20:33
don't think I can leave that in the show because it'll flag us on copyright
20:36
licensing. Yeah. My my ring tone is and has been for a long
20:41
time that the Cantinas scene from Star Wars. Yeah, oh wow, Okay,
20:45
Anyways, what I was saying about Gary seventy two or not? If
20:48
he's seventy two and he's a good looking guy and he's financially stable, maybe
20:53
a border ring on wealthy, why are they bringing in seventy two year olds
20:56
for him to date? You know he's not going over forty Yeah. Uh,
21:02
they should just keep they should just keep the twenty five women vying for
21:04
the roses the same age that they have been. Oh I think that's good.
21:11
Mix it up where it's let's let's let's see what Gary's true intentions are.
21:15
Let's throw some some fellow seventy two year olds at him, but let's
21:19
also throw in an impressionable twenty two year old who thinks she's emotionally intelligent.
21:25
Yeah. I like it. Yeah, you're right. That would make it
21:27
more entertaining if they if they had a wide spread of ages for the women
21:33
contestants, and that would also open up the possibility of us discovering if old
21:37
woman's strength is a thing like old man strength is. Well, it would
21:44
make the hot tub scenes a lot better to watch. No, no,
21:48
the twenty five year old Oh okay, gotch Like, so you were not
21:53
looking forward to Gary seventy two year old golden bachelor in a hot tub with
21:57
other seventy two year olds. Know that just sounds like Florida. Yeah,
22:02
yeah, that's that's that's not a sexy hot till that's that's a therapy.
22:06
That's Tampa. That is a great idea for a show that like you call
22:12
it the sugar Bachelor and just an rich guy you want to talk about.
22:18
Copyright copyright this, they'll they will steal this idea, I prophet, you
22:23
look, let Rupert Murdoch do it. He just tapped down from his position.
22:27
He's got a bunch of free time on his hands and a lot of
22:30
money. So you know there are options out there. Yeah, I just
22:36
I don't know when they. When I saw the preview for Golden Bachelor,
22:38
my first thought was just gross, Like nobody needs to watch your grandparents boning,
22:45
Like nobody needs to see this. See you say that one of these
22:48
days, hopefully we will all make it to that age. And you know,
22:53
if if things, if things are what they are, and you guys
22:56
are still single, then you know, I'm not going to be a Do
23:00
you find him love? I don't know. If I don't know if Trey
23:03
is going to find the crazy woman of his dreams and a fellow seventy two
23:06
year old as much as he wouldn't a twenty four year old. I don't
23:08
know. But I can definitely find the crazy of my dreams on a reality
23:11
show though, yes, But I mean it also depends, you know,
23:15
maybe his definition of crazy will change from like like e mostally crazy to like
23:19
clinically. It's also a good point I wonder how. I wonder how Tray's
23:25
crazy tastes will evolve through the years. It's like, first she's just like,
23:30
like, you know, girls with daddy issues. Now let's schizophrenics.
23:33
So yeah, you're probably right. I would probably lead more towards clinical because
23:40
at least you know there's a pill that can probably take the edge off,
23:42
yeah, most of you. And then when it's sex time withhold the medicine
23:48
and then let's go. And Trey just wonders, is she gonna say,
23:52
hold me down with my colostomy bag. You're in the treehouse. Visit us

24:23
Rodney, We've talked a lot over the years about divorce and how difficult of
24:27
a situation it can be for people. But one area of divorce it doesn't
24:32
have to be crazy, is if you're a homeowner going through a divorce,
24:36
call you and you can help hold their hand through that entire process. Right.
24:40
Yeah, we're seeing a lot of divorce attorneys recommend us to their clients,
24:44
and many people are doing cash out refinances to pay off the ex spouse.
24:48
I'll give you a perfect example of that. We had a client called
24:52
the other day. She lived in Flower Mount Their home had gone up and
24:56
their value had been six is six hundred thousand dollars. They only two hundred
25:00
thousand dollars on the mortgage, but the wife was keeping the house, so
25:03
she had to do a cash out refinance to pay off her husband the two
25:07
hundred thousand dollars of his part of the equity. So we did a cash
25:11
out for that situation. We also see a lot of people buying homes because
25:15
many people have two incomes. Now they're down to one income and their home
25:18
may not fit their divorce new divorce lifestyle. So we're seeing a lot of
25:22
people get pre approved or go out and buy homes during that process. Now
25:27
here's what you need to know. Can you buy a home or can you
25:30
refinance during the process or you need to wait until after the process. A
25:34
lot of that depends on how amicable that your situation is, and do you
25:40
know all those rules. We're going to hold your hand, walk you through
25:42
this whole process and make you feel comfortable when it comes to your mortgage and
25:47
the divorce situation. So pick up the phone, give us a call.

25:56
of their clients. And don't be scared. Pick up the phone and call

27:22
I thought you said you had to go, Pete. I did.
27:26
Wow. That is ah, that is that is impressive. That was the
27:30
world's fastest p Did you dribble on the way to the bathroom. No,
27:36
yeah, you just started before you got to the bathroom, so it would
27:40
be faster that way. Well, no, but I had to go and
27:42
so there wasn't a lot of lag time in between you know, once I
27:47
got to the toilet of you know, things starting to work, okay,
27:51
Well, then I I was in a hurry. I pushed hard, no
27:56
Jesus hands and came back. Do you have like a valve, Yeah,
28:02
I'm there that you just so it just opens and it just all just gets
28:04
unleashed, and then you close it back and come back. Because even even
28:08
if I have to, even though I have to be really bad, I'm
28:12
still standing there for a good two or three seconds before it really you know,
28:15
yeah, gets going. I don't know, I had to go,
28:19
so I felt like it was you know, the valve had pressure. I
28:25
just needed to you know, open it up. And once I did it,
28:27
yeah, I mean that's just and I'm sure you take you know that,
28:30
and that's that's that says you're healthy. That's a healthy bladder and a
28:37
prostate. And I'm sure healthy prostate. That's the and I'm sure it takes
28:40
medication at your age. I'm sure he takes some medication for that. And
28:42
so I do not prostate is all natural, thank you very much. He
28:48
doesn't need medical assistance in that arena. Is that we actually I take that
28:52
back, hope is technically I have been taking an enlarged prostate drug for twenty
29:00
five years because in anticipation of possible So I have been on Propecia, which
29:10
is a pill that fights hair loss, since I was twenty four. Oh
29:15
wow. And that Propecia came about, like all of great drugs as basically
29:22
a side effect of so it's called Finesteride was the original and large prostate drug.
29:26
And as they're doing their studies and you know posts, so it came
29:30
out in the mid eighties, and then all of a sudden, like ten
29:33
years later, they're looking at whoa, all these people are saying they're regrowing
29:37
hair. Are they've stopped hair loss? We're about to make a lot more
29:41
money. I have much better think about, Like, so here's fin and
29:45
it was it was doctor Fettner who finally who was like, hey, because
29:48
Propecia is basically it used to be about one hundred dollars a month, Okay,
29:56
just finesteride, which it goes in her name pro scars what the original
30:00
drug was called. It's like five dollars for ninety pills. Oh and and
30:04
the Propecia is one milligram, where a Finestra eye tablet is five. So
30:08
you basically just take one every other day. But uh yeah, so yes,
30:15
technically I have been on an enlarged prostate drug for a long time.
30:18
That's what it is. So you've been so you've been juicing your straight all
30:22
these years and you're just coming clean about it now. That's really you Just
30:26
you think you know somebody and just I know. It's like Viandra was for
30:33
blood pressure, yeah, yourself. It's just so much fun to watch for
30:47
a high blood pressure and they were like, hey, what's going on with
30:49
Jim? You know it's it's blood pressure is low. But check that out
30:56
and once again that's that's that's when not the light bulb, but the money
31:00
symbol goes off over their head and they're like, oh, we're about to
31:03
be really rich. Oh yeah, Oh the doctor that actually discovered that,
31:07
like he owns there's some really exclusive spot outside on an island outside of Miami
31:14
and he owns like half of it. Oh wow, that's impressive. Yeah,
31:18
I mean that's that when that Yeah, that's going to solve and it's
31:22
easy. And that's why it's in the commercial it says, you know,
31:23
it may cause a drop in blood pressure, because that's what that's what it
31:27
was designed for. Uh, and then it just was that's just an easier
31:32
market to sell to. UH. So it's also a more fun one.
31:34
Yeah that's uh, yeah, I did not know that about Propitia was for
31:38
in large process. So that's what that's the secret behind your four and a
31:42
half second p. Yes, you're you're you're doing you're doing. Uh,
31:48
you're doing some some some working there. I have a twenty something prostate.
31:56
Are you using that on on on women? Say? You know what,
32:00
Yeah, it might be it might be forty nine, but my prostate at
32:02
twenty I think that's an over fifty brag. So if you ever get named
32:12
the new Golden Bachelor, that's your next year. When I get my art
32:15
card, then I'll maybe I'll throw that out. You can actually get your
32:21
AARP card now they have no taken away the age restriction. They have they
32:27
have removed the age restriction. But I thought, like, there's if you
32:31
get it below fifty, there's certain benefits you don't get up until I don't
32:36
know. I'm just to me that is going to be the milestone of hitting
32:38
fifty is getting my art card so and getting and then then I am I
32:43
am going to like, you know, go play golf. I'm like,
32:45
yes, kind of the senior discount. Yeah, my dad used to use
32:49
his I'm not I can't even make this up, his senior discount at Taco
32:52
Bell. Yeah, that is that is the correct that's the correct response when
32:58
it's not your dad, because I would go with him and he's like,
33:02
I take my senior discount please, and I'm like, we're at Taco Bell.
33:07
We could buy this place with the twenty you understand that we could be
33:09
the owners of this establishment with the twenty dollars bill. We're good. We
33:15
don't need to do that. And then it was it used to be and
33:16
I'm not again, can't make it up. I think it was like fifteen
33:20
percent off. So he looked at me one day he goes, I just
33:23
saved thirty six cents, and I was like, what are you gonna do
33:25
with that? And just indian logic, he goes sixty four more sentences a
33:30
dollar and I go and then you can buy a burrito. That's what probably
33:36
makes me laughing or anything, is that's back in the day when Taco Bell
33:38
was cheap. Yeah. Yeah, And that was his favorite place to go
33:43
because it was so cheap. That's what he would brag about. And then
33:45
he got to that age where he's like, I'm gonna use it. And
33:47
then they switched it and this was a good deal. I think you would
33:52
get a for the senior discount stead of getting the fifteen percent off or whatever
33:55
it was. They just gave you a free small drink. Oh and man
34:00
alive was that man that you should every sip he took out of that small
34:05
cup, he was the happiest. You would have thought there was eighteen year
34:08
old Scotch in that cups, just the joy knowing that that diet pepsi was
34:14
free. Did you did? Did he dine in so he could get a
34:16
refill and get his money's worth? Like he would The only reason he would
34:20
go, Yeah, he would always, he would you kind of right.
34:23
He would fill it up, drink it and then refill it before he went
34:29
out. But he'd go. He would go inside so he could. The
34:31
reason they stopped putting the sauce packets outside for like five years was had to
34:37
be my dad because he brought sauce for the house so he would get he
34:43
would get kind of like me sometimes at Chipotle when I go in and I
34:46
you know how that people will say glass half empty, half full with the
34:51
Chipotle Chipotle Tabasco, the actual Chipotle Tobasco, not the regular, but the
34:55
Chipotle Tobasco. When you go into Chipotle the restaurant if it's below the halfway
35:00
line, and that goes home with me, my mom. At the again,
35:07
you Taco Bueno, they have the free salsa bar. Oh my,
35:14
it was just so embarrassing. It was just you'd have one bean burrito and
35:20
sixteen cups of salsa. Uh sixteen little plastic I mean the pico de gaio,
35:24
halapinos, diced onions, all of it. And I'm like why because
35:29
it's feet. I'm like, I understand that, I get it. I
35:31
understand the appeal of free. I enjoy that too. What are you going
35:35
to do with it? And I was the one who guy would come home
35:37
on the weekends to see them and have lunch or whatever. And then I'm
35:40
the one throwing it all away because it's just been sitting in the fridge.
35:44
And she would try to try to pitch it to you, like do you
35:45
want some onions with that? I'm like, it's it's cake. I don't
35:49
need onions with cake. We have some diced onions. No Taco Bueno had
35:54
diced onions. You went, got a burrito like literally one, and then
36:00
sixteen cups of the sauce, and then the sauce packets. We had a
36:02
drawer. Every Indian family has a sauce drawer. There's a Taco bell hot
36:07
sauce drawer in every Indian person's house. And that's why they stopped positive.
36:10
That's why they stopped putting, and that's why they ask you now here.
36:15
It's a new thing. They ask you at taco about how many sauce packets
36:17
you want. They don't just like, hey, can I have some hot
36:21
sauce? They just throw a handful in there. They'll ask you now And
36:22
it's because of Indian people. So if you want to know why it is,
36:27
it is fact and not just Indian people in general, but your family
36:31
specifically. And then that's why you have like you used to stop. It
36:37
was just mild and hot. It was mild, medium hot, and that's
36:40
where it stopped. And then Indians started going, we like this place,
36:44
and they're like, oh, okay, how's fire sound. Okay, that's
36:46
good, And then that wasn't hot enough, and they're like, how does
36:50
the devil's name in Spanish sound and the like Diablo sounds great? Like now
36:57
now I think there's one above Diablo. Now it's like it's just getting it's
37:00
just just because of Indian people going it's not hot enough. And that's the
37:04
only reason, Like, there's no reason for a sauce that hot anywhere.
37:08
Real quick, just uh some show stuff, real quick, just to peel
37:14
the curtain back briefly, rog, did you ever find your ring light?
37:15
The only reason I bring it up is because Trey and I looked fairly normal,
37:20
kind of bright, and I don't know if it's because you're wearing a
37:22
hat. Did you do you find your ring light? Yeah? My ring
37:23
lights on. It was under it was under it was under some pillows.
37:29
Your ring light was under some pillows. Yes, Why you think the same
37:35
thing, I am. What were you filming? Why do you have a
37:39
ring light in your bed? Rag? Uh, it's not it was on
37:43
my there's pillows on other places than your bed. First of all, it
37:49
was on the couch. And you're talking about that, you're talking about the
37:52
couch cushion. No, like the that's a couch cushion. That's not a
37:55
pillow. No, there's the throw pillows, the little deck have things that
38:00
you put on the couch? Do you have Do you have throw pillows on
38:04
your couch? I do not seeing Oh right there, that right there is
38:08
a man. A man does not have throw pillows on his couch. He
38:13
just have the couch. I get. I get manicures and don't like sticky
38:15
stuff on my hands. What about you? What about me? Screams man
38:21
like, I'm not a man. Man, I'm like, I'm honestly.
38:24
Having a ring light in your bed? Screams man. Uh no, baby,
38:31
I gotta make sure it got good lighting here? Can you see this?
38:37
Uh no? I thrown it on the ring light? Are you just
38:40
happy to see? I just got a bad business idea and it would work.
38:49
It would work, I'll tell you. But just think of a different
38:52
kind of ring light. Oh gosh, right, already there, already there.
39:00
I think there's a market. I think there's a market there. No,
39:02
my dog was on the so I'd thrown the ring light on the on
39:07
the love seat. And do you have a love seat? Yeah, we
39:12
have a love seat and a couch and a love seat. Have both of
39:14
them, and I see before the ring light hit the couch, so before
39:19
the ring light touched those cushions, it was just a small couch. Once
39:22
the ring light hits that then and he's my dog wasn't feeling well, so
39:29
he like moved all the pillows down and went to sleep. And I was
39:32
like, I know, I positive I put that ring light some and then
39:35
so he kind of got up to get some water or whatever. And then
39:38
I looked up and I was like, there it is, and so I
39:42
found it. So you got a sick pupper, I did. He's good
39:45
now he's uh. He was wrong, bad, bad, gut. I
39:51
gotten h he had gotten into some chicken that was in the trash. That's
39:54
what we is that some of your roadside in chicken that you have months ago
40:01
that he got into. That would make sense. No, I think it
40:05
was just like leftover, Like I just had some leftover chicken and rice that
40:07
I've thrown. And he's a he's a he's a big boy. He's beautiful.
40:12
His name his name is sweet boy Sam because he's he's a sweet boy,
40:15
and he's he's wonderful and he's just the just the sweetest dog. But
40:20
he's a dumpster and he'll eat anything. And you know what he's eating after
40:25
how he like his face will tell you like I did it and that's not
40:29
gonna be good. That's what his face says, like, yep, almost
40:34
one hundred pounds now, little over. See, every time I've ever gotten
40:39
a dog, adopted, whatever, one of the things I always think about
40:43
is how big is this dog currently? Or is it going to get any
40:46
bigger? Because the next thing I think about is how bigger the turd's gonna
40:51
be that I'm gonna have to pick up? Yeah, he's a in the
40:53
one. I never I've never wanted to have a dog whose turds are going
40:57
to be bigger than mine. It's it's gonna feel picking up in the mornings.
41:00
He's a he's a two bagger. Yeah. You you you go out
41:06
there with one bag and you're like okay, and you no, you have
41:08
to you have to take the two. When we got any backs, was
41:12
it when he was sick? Uh oh yeah, couldn't be. It couldn't
41:17
be back. So it was a lot of water and uh, I would
41:21
I would pour water like I would take a bottle of water out with me
41:23
and it would be the whole bottle of water. Uh, so that it
41:27
would kind of so that nobody got anything on their feet or anything over their
41:30
shoes or anything when they were out walking. Yeah. So, and then
41:32
I would take like dirt or grass and put on top of that as well.
41:36
So when I got him, I asked specifically how big is the dog
41:39
gonna get? Because mom, he's a you're going to say you asked specifically
41:43
how big are his turts? I think that was what I was trying to
41:49
gauge. I was like, uh, because he's a he's a bulldog boxer
41:52
mix. And I was like, okay, and the dad, uh,
41:57
it's fifty pounds. Fifty pounds. The mom was forty. So the girl
42:02
who I got the dog from was my best friend growing up. He's not
42:07
passed away, but it's his daughter and she lived in Dennison, and so
42:13
she put she posted a picture of the of two dogs. I don't even
42:15
know what the other dog look like. She's like, does anybody want these
42:19
puppies? And I was like, the one on the right, I'm gonna
42:21
take. That's my dog. And if you've ever had that connectional there to
42:24
go, that's my dog. This is my dog like there is no like
42:29
he sleeps like on me, like it's beautiful. But they lied. They
42:36
said his max wait was going to be forty seven pounds. And when I
42:39
took him, I got him at eight weeks old. When I took him
42:43
to get his second round of shots, I think it was six six months
42:47
is how old he was. And the doctor was like the vet was like,
42:52
yeah, look at the size of those pots. And I was like,
42:53
I know, I really hope he grows into him. He's like,
42:57
do you. I was like yeah, because he's kind of a goofy clumsy,
43:00
and they got to that weird like linky phase and then he just started
43:05
eating everything and I was like, oh man. The doctor was like,
43:07
there's no way they lied to you. Like they basically if they would have
43:10
told you he's gonna be a hundred pound dog, they might have been scared
43:14
that you wouldn't take it. So you have one hundred pound dog. What's
43:16
his name again? Sweet boy Sam? See so you have sweet boys Sam,
43:20
one hundred pound dog that you adopted and he got sick. But he's
43:23
fine now, right, he's good. Now we have solid poops. Was
43:27
he was he like sphinxing when he was he No, he didn't. He
43:31
didn't he didn't have a he didn't have he wasn't vomiting. He did vomit
43:35
once. Uh, And that was when I was like, oh, I
43:37
know that, I ate that. I know what that is. It was
43:40
chicken and rice because there was carrots and peas in the throw up and then
43:45
everything else was out the other side. So yeah, and actually, Trey,
43:51
thank you for bringing up the sphinxing a thing, because when I was
43:52
going back through previous episodes, I didn't realize this, but on Spotify people
43:59
can actually comment on certain things on the podcast itself. So the episode that
44:04
the episode where we talked about sphinxing it when you Raj got food poisoning,
44:08
sphinxing it is when you get food poisoning and you have to what you do
44:12
is when you can no longer make the decision if you want to sit on
44:15
the toilet and do both at the same time. What you do then is
44:19
you get in the tub and you do both at the same time without any
44:22
concerns. You just let it all happen and then he just rents out the
44:24
tub. Yeah, that's that's sphinxing because you're in that position like the sphinx.
44:29
Yes, but someone had posted, you guys need to know about gargoiling.
44:35
So this guy had said what he does is called the gargoyle. I
44:37
think I wrote it down. Think it's why I can find this put it
44:44
of skyscrapers. What is kind of kind of that's just what what he does
44:50
is he gets into the gargoyle position with his feet and squats on top of
44:55
the toilet, and then he grabs a bucket and puts it in front of
44:59
him and I just hold his mouth open scarely. That was what he says
45:04
he does. That's that's the that's the gargoyle versus the sphinx. Yeah,
45:07
and it got It's like, I'm sure there. I'm sure there are others
45:09
because whenever someone has food poisoning, they're gonna come up with their own styles.
45:14
It's sort of like a martial art. It's sort of like kung fu.
45:15
Someone has tiger style, someone has gargoyle style, and you know,
45:20
food poisoning kung fu whatever. But I think there would be some other ones
45:24
that would also make sense. The Game of Thrones. I looked this up
45:30
online. These are all one percent real. There's the Game of Thrones,
45:32
also known as the klisi. That's where you just bend the knee in front
45:36
of the toilet. Oh gotcha? Okay. There's also the fifty cent that's
45:40
where you get food poisoning in the club, but you don't leave. You
45:43
just stay in the club and let it happen. There's also the bond Scott
45:50
that's where you just lie on your back and choke on your own vomit.
45:55
The tub girl. Okay, so instead of sphinx to get in the tub,
46:00
you do the tub girl. Remember that photo online? No, that's
46:04
what You're gone in your back and you're just ass up, going straight in
46:06
the air and then back down onto your own face. Surprised you hadn't seen
46:12
that. Between that and the goat sea image, that was one of the
46:14
two classic horrific things to have seen online, well before Two Girls One Cup,
46:21
which would be another option if you had food poisoning. It's just kind
46:23
the jewels from Two Girls One. There's also Stephen King's carry ok that's where
46:30
that's where you get food poisoning at prom and don't leave. There's also there's
46:38
also the Tony Robbins and that's where you have food poisoning in the bathroom.
46:43
But while you're throwing up and pooping, you do that while running across hot
46:45
coals. I thought, you're just cussing out the audience. That might be
46:53
that might be an option as well, Dude, in front of a live
46:55
audience. I call that the ben him. So we're do it in front
47:02
of a live audience while screaming Jesus. That would actually be perfect if you
47:07
want to, you want to prove yourself as a real evangelist, grab someone
47:14
from that audience that is currently experiencing food poisoning, and you heal them right
47:17
then and there on that stage, no matter what muck comes out of him.
47:22
If you can heal them right then and there, you are set for
47:25
life, better off than Copeland. Yeah, I would. I would buy
47:30
into that ministry. I'm like, did you see what he did? He
47:34
made it solid. He is a man of God. Now we just crossed
47:44
televangelist with exorcism. The hell of a Watch. Yeah, Now that's a
47:52
church I would go to. Yeah, the Church of Textracism. I'd buy
48:00
tickets to that. Not front Row, but Slash Zone and Gallagher's the minister

Let's get Daniel Cook from Cook DFW Roofing and Restoration into the treehouse right
48:35
now, the phone number eight three three Cook DFW, the website Cook dfw
48:38
dot com. So I've heard a rumor lately that insurance deductibles are going up
48:44
on people's homes, and I'm wondering, how is that going to affect the
48:46
roof Dan, That's no lie right there. I've heard multiple friends of mine
48:52
that's in the insurance business saying that companies are going to have to increase rates.
48:55
Companies are increasing dwelling cost and these are not being able to write one
49:00
percent deductibles anymore. They're going up to one and a half and two percent.
49:04
So as a homeowner, that means your deductible could go up as much
49:07
as three, four or five thousand dollars. So before that occurs on your
49:10
policy, you need to be very aware of when my policy is going to
49:15
change, When is my deductible going to change, because you probably want to
49:19
go ahead and get your roof inspect it and your property inspect it on the
49:22
old policy amounts because that's going to save you several thousands of dollars on your
49:28
deductible and you more than likely if you have not had your roof inspected in
49:31
the last couple of years, we'll probably have some damage that will need to
49:35
be replaced or repaired. And it's much better to do it for a cheaper
49:37
deductible than what your deductibles are going to go up to in the next year
49:42
or two. So take advantage of getting it looked at now. Isn't it
49:45
nice to have a roofer who not only wants to help you to keep your
49:49
home protected, but is also thinking about you as you in your finances,
49:52
like, hey, you know what I think there's a waiting for you to
49:54
save a little bit of money here in case you have a problem. So
49:58
give Daniel Cook from Cooke DFW Roofing Restoration a call for that free roof inspection

It's the tree house. Let's get Jacqueline from Brooks Plumbing into the tree
50:12
house now. Their phone number two one four three six eight thirty eight thirty
50:15
eight. That's two one four three six eight thirty eight thirty eight. The
50:17
website Brooks Plumbing Texas dot com. So, Jacqueline, I know that Brooks
50:22
Plumbing is a family business. What's it like working with the family in the
50:29
family business. You saw I'm an only child and you're you're with me,
50:35
my mom and my dad. So my dad and I worked together every day,
50:37
and I'm an only child. I think I just said that, but
50:40
I remember when the business really took off and started to get very busy,
50:45
my mom and my dad worked together every day, and being the angry Italian
50:49
family that we were, every day there was almost a murder ash. Trays
50:52
were flying. Yes, she threw a peuter half Trey Adam once. But
50:55
I remember they came home and we were sitting down at the kitchen table.
50:59
It was on my left, Mom on my right, me sitting in the
51:01
middle. I think we were having macaroni and I remember my dad got angry
51:06
about something. And we're a tall family. So I'm five to seven for
51:08
a girl, I'm kind of tall. Mom, you're like five ten eight.
51:12
She's shrinking, but she used to be five ten and here dad's six
51:16
foot tall. And so I remember they got angry and Dad was like,
51:21
you're not going to yell at me and have the high ground. So he
51:22
stood up and he started pointing down at my mom. He was still sitting
51:24
at the kitchen table. And this is back when she was wearing skirts and
51:29
heels and pantyhose. And so she stands up and she gets on her tiptoes
51:34
and so she's as tall as he is and she's pointing at him. And
51:37
now they're arguing, mind you, I'm still sitting there, just nomen on
51:39
my macaroni left, look right. Look, I'm like, these people are
51:43
nuts, but I'm like in third grade, I'm like, let them do
51:45
what they're doing. Dad gets angry, He's like, absolutely not, pulls
51:47
the chair out, stands on top of the chair and continues pointing down at
51:52
my mom. So he maintains the high ground. And that's that's what it's
51:54
like working in this office. So if because we love each other so passionate
52:00
and we feel so deeply, So if you ever call and you're talking to
52:01
me and you hear yelling in the background, that's pretty par for the course.
52:06
It doesn't mean we're not going to show up and give you the best
52:07
service possible. It just means that we're an Italian family through and through,
52:13
and we're going to treat you like family, and that means that we're basically
52:15
inducting already. You're going to yell at all your customers and stand over them.
52:20
We're gonna feed you, We're gonna make you plump and make sure you
52:22
can use the after the flush twice. Yeah. So it's actually good the
52:30
way that story ended, because for a moment there, I thought you were
52:31
going to say, and that's the story of how my mom ended up standing
52:35
on top of Reunion Tower. Did you get on the table? Uh?
52:38
No, I didn't. Did you think about it? I started laugh at
52:43
I'm surprised you didn't kick that chair out from underneath him. Now I've seen
52:45
her flip tables before. It's pretty impressing. Don't tell, damn man,
52:50
don't that's youthful indiscretion. You know what. Don't worry, I'm not going
52:54
to tell anybody that she said that about you. It's only on the airwaves,
53:00
embarrassing. It's the internet. There's way worse stuff. You're going to

53:53
dot com. Sorry, what was you were saying about? Well, from
54:00
we're talking about the size of dog poops and Roger talking about, you know,
54:05
one hundred pound dogs. So I've had the extremes. I used to
54:07
have great Danes. Oh, now I have Daisy and Daisy and Daisy.
54:15
Ways, how much three pounds? And you're great Danes Wade, how much?
54:20
Biggest one was one hundred and seventy five pounds. Yeah, and when
54:22
you took your great Danes on a walk. Did you just bring a shovel
54:27
I would go, or did you just leave it and blame it? Not
54:30
a homeless person. I would always try. But I would go down to
54:36
the grocery store. And it's a dangerous game because you have to really check
54:37
the bags. But instead of using like a poop bag, I would go
54:42
get a grocery like the plastic grocery sacks. I thought you were going to
54:45
say, a lot and leaf bag. Yeah, I had to do that.
54:50
I had one hundred and thirty five pound Rottwiler in college and that's what
54:52
I went. And I'd go to the grocers and I'm like paper plastics,
54:54
I'm like plastic and double bag it. Uh. And it was because of
54:59
there was no poop bags that we that were big enough. Now they have
55:01
different sizes, but there weren't anything big enough for this dog's dumps. Like
55:08
it was. It was impressive, and then I was like okay, and
55:12
then everything else after that it was fairly midsized, like an average size dog.
55:15
I'd have a lab like a chocolate lab or whatever. And then with
55:17
this one here, now you just saw him crossover. He's a giant and
55:22
he's the sweetest doofiest thing in the world. But he's also mute, so
55:25
he can't. He doesn't bark. When he does bark, he has to
55:30
like squeeze all of the air out of his body and that's what comes out.
55:34
It's weird. Yeah, it's weird because it also sounds like two separate
55:37
dogs barking out of one. Yeah. So he doesn't say anything. So
55:40
he tells you he needs to go out with his eyes. And when he
55:45
was sick, it was just I feel bad because he's right here and he
55:46
can hear me, and I know you understand it, but it was this.
55:50
It was just the funniest thing because he would just look at me like
55:52
it's coming now, I can't stop it, and just that face. I
55:58
would just start laughing and he's just like, man, you you you get
56:02
to talk about your problems, tray when you when you go from one hundred
56:08
and seventy five pound great Dane on a walk, you can't just kind of
56:14
kick that over and no one noticed it. I mean, everyone's going to
56:17
know your dog took a huge dump right there. You can't just leave it
56:22
there right No. So now the opposite with Daisy, the three pound Chihuahwa.
56:27
Do you even bother to pick that up? Or you just kind of
56:29
just just blow it down the street like an acorn. I try to always
56:34
have a poop bag. And now the sad thing, especially if it's dark,
56:38
I usually can't see the like even with a flashlight. Sometimes that I
56:43
mean her if she takes a big turd, it looks like a three put
56:47
like a three peanut in a shell, Like you know that that's the size
56:51
of it. Look. I would like to point out two things really quickly.
56:53
One is a disclaimer. One is that I think you are a terrible
56:59
person if you throw a gum on the ground and you don't pick up after
57:01
your dog. Okay, I want that sen Yes, unless your dog is
57:07
so small that one it drops turds. If your dog's turds are smaller than
57:13
squirrel turds, you shouldn't even mess with it because it actually is going to
57:16
hurt the environment more by using the poop back. Just just just blow it,
57:21
just blow it into into grass or something. I literally so we have
57:25
rabbits running around the neighborhood, and rabbit turds and daisy turds are very similar
57:30
in size. But like I said, I try to be a good person
57:34
and pick it up. If I don't have a bag, then what I
57:37
will do instead of leaving it in the grasses, I literally will just take
57:39
the tip of my shoe and just flick it and it'll you know, a
57:43
pebble or two will go in the street, and no one's worse for wear.
57:49
For a second there, I thought you were going to say you that
57:51
you were flicking it towards like doors and windows. I flick it towards that
57:54
neighbor. I hate willing to be fair because because Daisy is so small that
58:02
when you're walking her trey, I mean, some people probably have to do
58:06
a double take thinking that you're walking a rat. Yeah, oh yeah it.
58:12
Daisy always turns heads just if nothing else, uh, just as small
58:16
as she is, I mean, and you know, she had those big
58:19
ears and looks like a little like gremlin walking down the street. And honestly,
58:22
she is so cute because when a dog is that tiny, it really
58:27
could walk over and poop right in the middle of someone's breakfast, and someone's
58:31
going to go all If raj is one hundred and thirty five pound from college,
58:38
did that, that's a vastly different reaction. That's a vastly different awe.
58:55
Yeah, it really will put anything on avocado toast. It's so gross.
59:05
I don't know what we're talking about. Yeah, but it's a it's
59:07
yeah, I can't imagine. That's some weird that's a weird thing to go
59:10
from like great Danes to something that. But I get it. If I
59:15
had one hundred and seventy five pound Great Dane that I had to pick up
59:17
after, you're damn right. If I get another dog, it's gonna be
59:21
so small that the turds you won't even be able to tell. You won't
59:22
even be able to see the turd. Yeah, the dog doesn't poop,
59:28
No, it's it. Literally, even her turds are adorable. That's but
59:35
I never I never thought I would have a small dog now because there is
59:38
a convenience factor. I mean, she's wonderful, she sweeches the best dog.
59:43
But it also like I just throw down a peapad and you know she's
59:46
good because, like I said, like her her peas, I mean they
59:53
might make a puddle, you know, if she really has to go like
59:59
the size of a donut. It and her turds are like I said,
1:00:01
they're they're cute land for that dog exactly to point out, though, trade
1:00:09
that the last, the last person on this show that just let the dogs
1:00:15
use the pea pads like crazy didn't end up so well. I walk her.
1:00:21
I walk her at least three times a day. But I also sometimes
1:00:24
worked ten twelve hours shifts, so I do have to have no I I
1:00:29
and I. Actually when I get home, I used the washable one,
1:00:32
so then I throw pea pads in the washer. There's not you know,
1:00:36
hallways, because I was in his house many times where you know, there
1:00:38
were literally dog turds everywhere. No, that's not happening. But speaking of
1:00:45
adoption of animals, have any of y'all seen this deal with Dallas Animal Services
1:00:52
finding a two hundred pound tortoise and no one has come forward to claim it.
1:00:57
Okay, I somehow missed that in my show prep. Oh my god,
1:01:00
it's been. It's been all over social media so many people have been
1:01:04
Dallas Animal Services found it or someone brought it in. What I read is
1:01:08
it said like they found it, like someone called and go, hey,
1:01:12
uh, there's a prehistoric beast walking down the street. Dallas Animal Services promptly
1:01:17
says, we don't have tri Sara tops catchers here, and I and this,
1:01:24
I mean I can trying to see if I can pull up a picture
1:01:28
of it. I mean it is. I mean it's a big boy like
1:01:32
I don't know if y'all can, Oh, yeah, I saw it.
1:01:36
Yeah, yeah, it's that's a big damn turtle. Yeah and old.
1:01:39
I mean that if you two hundred pound tortoise has got to be you know,
1:01:45
over eighty probably is that what it is. I don't know how to
1:01:47
I don't know how to calculate a turtle or tortoises age. How do you
1:01:53
do that? My assumption is is based on weight. So, like you
1:01:57
said, it's two hundred pounds, I just assume one year for each pound.
1:02:00
So I'm just gonna assume this tortoise is two hundred years old. Yeah,
1:02:05
I mean, I know they live well over one hundred and as they're
1:02:08
kind of like lobsters, they just keep growing. They can grow forever.
1:02:13
So you get to two hundred pounds, I'm assuming you're you're up there.
1:02:16
Yeah, I'm assuming it was like it was like twelve pounds when it decided
1:02:19
to leave the owner's house and by the time it got to where it was,
1:02:22
it's now eighty five and two hundred pounds. They're not swift beasts for
1:02:30
a tortoise who get that big. Someone has taken a lot of care of
1:02:32
it, which is why it's just it's surprising. And I don't know why,
1:02:37
because you see so many people who give away. You know, they'll
1:02:40
call it rehoming animals. Yeah, is it, But I just I can't
1:02:45
imagine someone who took that much care of an animal, Like, but how
1:02:49
are you missing a two hundred pound tortoise? Like, that's just I don't
1:02:52
think they're missing it. I think I think they think it went. I
1:02:54
think it was gone. And there might be some restrictions in the city.
1:03:00
I don't know if there's. Like they said, it's not an illegal animals.
1:03:04
It's because it's one of those things you can buy a turtle and sometimes
1:03:07
you know, you think you're getting something, you know that's the size of
1:03:10
a shoe, and twenty years later godzilla And that's why you adopt, don't
1:03:20
shop because you have no idea what pet Land is selling you. You think
1:03:28
it's a get go, but then it ends up being mecca Godzilla. I
1:03:34
found a story for it or I found it on on I think its Facebook.
1:03:37
Animal Services Dallas Animal Services is still looking for the owner of the very
1:03:40
friendly tortoise. Animal Services employees rescue the tortoise, which they named Wendell.
1:03:46
Yeah. After he after he apparently dug out of wherever his owner kept him
1:03:51
and wandered into an unsuspecting person's backyard. Oh wow, I guess they're fortunate
1:03:55
it was very friendly. Yeah. Uh. My thing is like, how
1:04:00
many two hundred pound tortoises do you have? That one goes missing and you
1:04:04
don't notice it. I'm still wondering how it is we haven't found that goddamn
1:04:10
cobra. Those are That's a that's a sentence that said in India every day.
