  Speaker 1: It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley along with
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Trey Trendholme. Today Tuesday, April first, twenty twenty five. So yes,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: that means today is April Fool's Day. So beware not
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: from us, but from everybody else. That's just never been
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: our thing. So you can breathe easy. Everything that you're
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: going to hear and experience on the show today, to
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: the best of my knowledge, is true. So there's your disclaimer.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: I've been struggling with something recently, Trey, and that is
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: sometimes I feel like we're a little too hard on
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: gen Z. And when I say we, I don't mean
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: just you and me, I mean the world in general.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Granted we will dogpile onto that, but I really started
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: thinking recently that, man, I feel like we've been given
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: gen Z too hard of a time. Okay, why because
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: it feels like this generational thing that always happens. It's
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: the previous generations always bashing the next one, saying they're
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: young and dumb, can't do anything, can't accomplish anything, et cetera,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: et cetera, And a lot of times it doesn't end
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: up that way. Just you know, every generation has to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: go through growing pains as they get older and a
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: little bit wiser. I'm sure that the greatest generation, the
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: parents of our parents, which our parents were baby boomers,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: which makes us, you know, gen X. I'm sure the
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: greatest generation thought we were losers. I'm sure baby boomers
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: think Millennials are losers. And again baby boomers think everyone
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: it losers, and it just kind of continues on, and
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I'm sure it happened all the way back throughout time,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: or their prior generation bashes on the new and upcoming one.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Now that's how I felt recently. I felt like we
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: were giving gen Z too hard of a time until
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I saw that they have anxiety over phone calls mm hmm.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: And that's when I started to think that, you know what,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: maybe we don't give them enough of a hard time,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: because I saw just yesterday that gen Z has such
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: crippling phone anxiety that a school in the United Kingdom
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: is actually off bring a course on how to make
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: phone calls. I just I there's sometimes you I can't
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: defend them as much as as much as my for
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: whatever reason, guilt inside of me was thinking that they're
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: you know, getting run through the ringer. Now, I kind
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: of think they deserve it.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: I understand where you're coming from. But having you know,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: I work with them, and they are They're a different
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: bunch and very very coddled, and you know, they have
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: their their safe spaces that you can't you can't admonish them.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: They're different.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, we thought Millennials were soft, and they kind
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: of were, But millennials will sit there and tell you
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: like there, you know, nine to eleven was their trauma.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Well we went through nine to eleven too. Yeah, what
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: you said about the generational war is correct. I think
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: we were very gen X is very unique in that
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: the greatest generation really didn't like the Boomers because they
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: were kind of the hippies m and then and then
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: they went out and especially greatest generation women stay at
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: home raised kids. Boomers women started going into the workforce,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: which left latch key kids us. So we are uniquely
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: positioned in the generational wars.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: I agree to that end, as much as I want
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: to go soft on gen Z to balance out all
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: the hard they make it real difficult. It's called telephobia,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: a fear or anxiety around making and rec telephone calls
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: and Generation Z born between nineteen ninety seven and twenty
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: twelve are struggling with it. Telephobia is a relatively recent
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: phenomenon describing people who fear phone calls. This is all
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: according to Liz Baxter. She's a careers advisor at Nottingham
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: College in the United Kingdom. In an interview with CNBC,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: she said that gen Z just simply has not had
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: the opportunity for making and receiving telephone calls. And since
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: it's not the main function of their phones these days,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: they can do anything on the phone, but we automatically
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: default to texting, voice notes and anything except actually using
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: a telephone for its original intended purpose. And so people
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: among gen Z have lost that skill.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Oh, they've lost a lot of communication skills.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's just no doubt.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: I wonder does that include facetiming, because that's something they
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: are so much more apt to do.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: That is an exception. A lot of this phone anxiety
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: with phone calls with gen Z stems from not being
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: able to see or be seen. They're fine to jump
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: on a team's call or FaceTime or something because then
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: they can have some visual cues with the person they're
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: interacting with, but if it's an audio only, they freak out,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and they freak out so bad that this career's advisor
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: said that many of her college's older pupils are expected
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: to take telephone interviews as a pre screening for job applications,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: and they were failing at it because they lacked the
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: awareness and confidence of navigating a phone call. So now
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: this college's Telephobia seminar is part of a series of
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: career related sessions to help bring pupils phone skills back
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: up to scratch. The session actually involves practicing a series
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: of scenarios where the gen Z students have to make
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: a phone call, for example, calling a doctor's appoint calling
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: a doctor's office to make an appointment, calling in sick
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: to work, in other everyday scenarios, and they'll even sit
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: back to back so they can't see each other to
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: mimic a regular phone call they can't see the other
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: person on the other end, and then they practice by
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: using scripts all for phone calls. And she did say
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: though that gen Z can attend just one of these
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: sessions and it can boost confidence because it demystifies how
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: phone calls really work. So once again. I've decided to
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: stop going soft on gen Z. Gen Z is the
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: worst generation. Convinced me I'm wrong.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: I can't no, thank you, Tray.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: You're in the treehouse.
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: Listen us online a treehouseonair dot com.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Let's get Daniel Cook from Cook DFW Roofing and Restoration
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: into the treehouse. Now, Daniel, we're going into rainy season,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: and that means lots of people are going to have
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: issues with water and drainage in and around it on
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the house. And while you are primarily a roofing company,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: you also do work around the people's homes every single day,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: so you guys can actually help with some of this
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: water that's going to be, you know, coming down very
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: very soon.
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: Water is the number one cause for a lot of
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: damages to people's homes and property. And so the way
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: that you filter water away from your home, away from
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: the foundation, away from the sides, it's super critical. Make
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: sure you walk around your home, make sure you don't
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: have standing water, make sure that when the water goes
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: down your gutters, it's running out properly, it's not running
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: right next to your foundation. Because now it's wet. But
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: let's say we're in July and August, and it starts
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: your soul starts cracking up. Well, all that water and
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: all that you know, drainage that you put near your
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: foundation is going to soak out of that. So it's
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: going to force your slab to move. And so drainage
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: and water is the number one thing to keep your
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: home very stable and without foundation issues.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and let Daniel and his team come out take
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: a look around your property and see any concerns that
• 9:08

• 10:09
  Speaker 1: the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Mally. He is Trey Trenholme. Today
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: is Tuesday, April first, twenty twenty five. Trey, I have
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: great news. We're going to lay off the gen Z
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: for a moment and we're going to celebrate our gen
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: X roots. Okay, okay, all right, here we go. According
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: to GQ Grandpas, sneakers are cool now, so bust out
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: your new balances or those blue and white nikes because
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you don't have to just wear them walking around the
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: mall anymore. Now they're a real fashion statement.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: I'm so like I basically just get the same thing,
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: and I think it just goes in and out of
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: fashion every five years.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: That's actually a really good strategy. Just keep wearing the
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: sin thing and eventually it comes back in style.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: So you're right.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Every every number of years, you're going to be on point,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: and at some point you'll be ahead of the curve.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: I have a specific brand of sneakers on running that
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: I love, and before everyone else jumped on that bandwagon,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: I was enjoying them and I don't care if they're
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: cool or not.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: They're incredibly comfortable.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: That's all you care about. At a certain point, at
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: a certain age that you hit, you just stop caring
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: about what other people think. You stop caring about what
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the trends are, what experts say you're supposed to wear,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: or how you're supposed to think, or how you're supposed
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: to act. And you're just like, no, this is me now,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: this is how I do things, this is what I wear,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: this is what I say. Take me as I am.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: And you realize, Lieutenant Dan, that was really good advice
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: to forest. Take care of your feet.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: That's true. You take care of your feet, they will
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: take care of you. And Lieutenant Dan was he knew
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: because eventually he didn't have no feet.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: He wished he could take care of him.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: That's right. He'd pay good money to get those things back.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: But you know what I'm talking about with the Grandpa sneakers,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: it's the new balance, the white shoes with the blue in.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Nike has their own version of the Grandpa malwalkers. It's
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: the white shoe with the blue swosh logo on the side.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: It's just the standard old guy shoe. The sog shoe
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: standard old guy shoe, but according to GQ, they're cool now.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: They just did a big write up on New Balance's
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: latest offering called aller Dales a L L E r
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: d A L E s. It is a white leather
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: New Balance shoe that looks like something my dad wore
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: circa nineteen eighty four. It's got the NB stitched logo
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: on the side and the base of the shoe. The
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: sole of the shoe is cream, so it's white on cream, okay,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: And they're only going to set you back two hundred
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and fifty dollars.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: Oh a bargain. Yeah.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: This is actually the second article they've done on these
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: stupid shoes. They did one with the brown version a
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: few weeks ago, and now the white version. I assume
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: they're talking about the shoe color and not the race
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: of individuals wearing them. They describe the look as downright orthopedic.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: And I don't know how to feel about this, because
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: I will admit that I am now of the age
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: and Instagram has told me that I am of the
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: age that I need to be fed ads for orthopedic shoes?
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Are we talking about, like, I mean, what I would
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: consider actual like they're they're tennis shoes.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: They're sneakers. Yeah, I mean.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Like the old like Stan Smith's or I think that
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: was the Adida.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Just white leather base shoe.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Basic, the basic, the basic bitch of shoes. That's exactly
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: what this is. And there really is nothing special about
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: these shoes. They're pebbled leather, normal laces, new bounce logo
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: on the side. It's the white upper with the cream sole,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: and for whatever reason, they're charging two hundred and fifty dollars.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: The writer for GQ said the brand has sidestepped the
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: dad shoe trend and decided to bring the granddad shoe
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: into the mainstream. He says the granddad shoes moment is
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: only just arriving and might stay a while.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: I guess number one, I didn't realize there was a
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: dad's shoe and granddad's shoe.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: I didn't either. This, that little nugget is new to
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: me as well.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: That's uh.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: I've seen this though, because we were, you know, earlier
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: in the show, we were bashing on gen Z for
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: not being able to navigate how to use a phone
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: because they're afraid of phone calls. But they're not afraid
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: of dad and granddad apparel I've seen. I've seen the
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: gen Z with their dad and granddad shoes on with
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: the mid calf you know, tube socks or or cruise socks, whatever,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: pulled up stuff. That stuff that I would never be
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: caught dead in. But if they wear it, it's cool.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: So this is where, this is where we now find
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: ourselves tree men of our age. If we wear these shoes,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: we actually look like grandpa's or we're trying too hard
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: to look young. We're in no man's land.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: The one thing I I kind of admire about gen
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Z is they have much more of a don't give
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: a flip attitude as far as looks and clothing. I mean,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: it's why they brought the mullet and mustache back.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: They keep bringing back the weird stuff they It's like
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: it's like gen Z is constantly doing a middle finger
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: to older millennials and all of us in gen X
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: who swore that you would never do the mullet again.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: We're not gonna do mustaches unless you can grow a
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Tom Selleck style mustache. We're not gonna do it. And
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: what do they do. They've embraced all of it, the
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: ugly mustache that's what they want, the super mullet. They
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: do that guys are getting perms and not the women
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: like we grew up with. And I'm on one hand,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I kind of give him credit for, like you said,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: kind of having that you know, Devil may care attitude,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: but I still feel attacked.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Well, they're still gonna have to deal with the ramification ramifications,
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: which is what we warned them that in fifteen twenty years,
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: when you go back and look at these pictures, it's
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: not a good look. It's not You're not gonna look
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: back and go, man, I'm glad I did that.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Morgan Wallen may be rich and famous and
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: very talent, but to me, he still looks like one
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: of my sister's ex boyfriends from junior High.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Before morganwall And there was Tracy Tracy Byrd, Tracy Lawrence.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Tracy Bird's the black lady in the video. That's a
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: very different look.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Tracy Lawrence, uh country singer, A big perm mullet. Yep, Yeah,
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: none of them have that look anymore either. It didn't,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: It didn't. It didn't age well.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: As far as I'm concerned. It died in uh Kyle's
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Gold Mazda RX seven from nineteen eighty six, and that's
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: where it needs to stay. Yeah, I am curious though,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: if they're bringing back the ugly mustache, they're bringing back
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the mullet. Are they going to go so far as
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: to bring back the bowl cut? Oh god, because that
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: may be the most hideous.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Or the they probably will, I mean bowl cut or
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: butt cut. You want to you want to really stick
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: it to us in gen X, start start dressing like
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: it's nineteen ninety four again.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: If they get some gerbo jeans and start rolling them up.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: Lord.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: See you're right though, Trey. If we just kept all
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: this stuff, we could just pull it out of bins
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: and then we'd look cool. Or nah, no, we wouldn't.

  Speaker 1: dot com, just like James Petty did just last week.
• 19:07
  Speaker 8: It was James, I've been listeners in twenty twelve. Thank you,
• 19:12
  Speaker 8: and uh, I really appreciate the show and everything y'all do.
• 19:15
  Speaker 8: Now I even more so appreciate how much y'all are
• 19:19
  Speaker 8: just crapping on fake eyelashes, considering how much I find
• 19:25
  Speaker 8: around the floors of my house because of my teenager,
• 19:30
  Speaker 8: my teenage nay step daughter. She just loves wearing fake.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Eyelashes real quick, James, thank you very much for talking
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: back to us here inside the Treehouse. Second of all,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: trade do you remember us talking about fake eyelashes recently
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: because I don't, but I have a poor memory.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean not in depth, but we I think
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: we've all expressed our.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Disdain for them. So yeah, the super long ones.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I think, Uh, that does sound a little familiar. Now,
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: if if eyelashes look like tarantula legs, you've gone too
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: far right everything.
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 20:07
  Speaker 8: Oh, why, she's losing all of her natural eyelashes. She's
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: pretty much got ball spots where they used to be
• 20:13
  Speaker 8: at this point.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: But I just.
• 20:16
  Speaker 8: Really enjoyed hearing the other night, how much y'all just
• 20:19
  Speaker 8: craping on to get her a tit? After I picture
• 20:22
  Speaker 8: up from work and she needed to hear that, whether
• 20:24
  Speaker 8: she liked it or not, I could go around the
• 20:27
  Speaker 8: house making rhymes about all the stuff on the floor
• 20:31
  Speaker 8: for her fake eyelashes, Please crap on them some.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: More, We'll do James, Happy to do it, Happy to
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: help you raise your daughter. I almost had rear that
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: had been really bad. I like to think that we
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: can bring generations closer here on the show. Granted we've
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: driven a hell of a wedge between us and gen Z,
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: but right now I think they deserve it. And that's
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: what James is dealing with. It's his generation, which is
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: either Millennial or gen X, dealing with what's the what's
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: the one behind gen Z? Trade Alpha? Yes, So this
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: young lady is going through a trying time. It's called adolescence.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: We've all been through it. Some of us fared better
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: than others. But the important thing to remember is that
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: we got through it. We built a lot of character.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Grooming and grooming habits and things you learn are very
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: interesting when you're a teenager. And if like this young
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: lady is doing, going to such an extreme that she's
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: got bald spots where hair is supposed to be. That's bad,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: and Daddy James is correct. Sometimes you need to know,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: you know, you may regret this down the line.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Just research the origins of them eyelashes, the fake eyelashes.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: What are the origins of fake eyelashes?
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: Trade things?
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: I from what I have read, part of their origin
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: goes back to the French and women of the night
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: to keep things out of their eyes.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Things, stuff. So I feel like the conversation James is
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: gonna have with his daughter got real awkward. Still, you
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: know what, sometimes of conversations with the teenager is gonna
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: have to be awkward if that is in fact the
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: origin story of big eyelashes. On the other hand, James
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: may have something really, really bad that he needs to
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: talk to his daughter about, because hopefully that's not the
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: reason she's got nice.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: Every once in a while and in moderation, Okay, I
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: understand it. It's a nice look everything else, but the
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: inchlong things and just the ridiculousness of it, and.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Stop, uh, there are I've seen this before. Whenever I'm
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: doom scrolling, I'll see the occasional social media influencer and
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: I've I've complained about this a bunch over the years.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: It's making your face look too different than it's natural,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: than than than it's natural state. If you made up
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: looks totally different than you with no without being made up,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: that's a problem. You're gonna scare people.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is, but it's I said, I don't care
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: about the makeup everything, but the fake eyelashes just look ridiculous.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: I mean they look clownish and and it and it's
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: like it is some of it is like makeup. A
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: lot of women don't really know what they're doing and
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: so they just apply it wrong and it looks it
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: looks clownish.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, look at it this way. If you're getting makeup
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: tatorials from a drag queen and you're not a drag queen,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: then maybe tone it down a little.
• 24:07

• 25:18
  Speaker 1: April first, twenty twenty five. You've had You've had a
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: number of days now, Trey. How's the move Ben? How
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: are you settling into the new place?
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: Okay, I've had a series of unfortunate events. My dryer broke,
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: it was never working when I moved in, and then
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: ac has gone out.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: But what's that? What's all that gets taken care of?
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: And Daisy's back to good health, and then I'm feeling okay,
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: it'll be great.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Are are are you and Daisy having co sicknesses? Daisy,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: your chihuaha.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Uh, Daisy has had a bad bad stomach bug diarrhea.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: She is getting better. But for a couple of days,
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: it was the wonderment of how much you know? How
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: can that much come out of a three pound dogs
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: for me?
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Is she doing her part to confirm the need of
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: a pet deposit. Luckily it's concrete floors, so you know, ooh,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: nicely done.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: And then I think due to the just absolute absurd
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: weather changes we're having up here and the enormously high
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: pollen count and lack of sleep because of worrying about Daisy,
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: I have been feeling under the weather. So hopefully everything
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: will get back to normal. I'm ready for your dust
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: to settle.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: I want you to be happy in the new place,
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: because you're excited about moving in. Obviously not excited about moving.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: We've talked a lot about that and how moving sucks.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever met anyone that said moving yeah.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: We even had I see an opportunity here to dog
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: pilot on gen Z. So at our house we have
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: a couple of we have a couple of rental units,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: and in both of them it's occupied by gen Z.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: One unit just moved out, and going into the apartment
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: to check it out afterwards and to see how things
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: are before we get the new folks in. We learned
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: a lot like gen Z. I'm not sure, if not
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: granted This is a very small sample size, but it
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: appears that gen Z doesn't know how to clean things,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: which is weird because I could hear the vacuum, but
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: when we got up there, it's like they didn't vacuum anything.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: We're happy to allow pets, but I think they I
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: think they were running like a puppy breeding operation up
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: there with one dog because Tara and my wife kept
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: finding clumps and clumps of cocker spaniel hair, like there
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: was fifteen of them. All they were missing was legs
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: and eyes. Had a whole We had a puppy mill.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: I honestly, I have to I can't really say a
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: lot about that because I realized that for a long
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: time I had a lady that would come in like
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: once a month and just clean up things I missed.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: I quit having that, and I found when I moved
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: that that was sorely missed because there were some very
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: dusty and a lot a lot of pet here in
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: corners and behind curtains and stuff.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: So but let me ask you a very important follow
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: up question to that. Okay, when you moved all that
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: stuff out and you discovered all the dust, all the
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: pet dander, all the pet fur, and stuff. What did
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: you do?
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: I cleaned it all up.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Our gen Z tenants didn't left it along with grease
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: all under on the bottom side of pots and pans.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: I don't even know how you do that unless you're
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: cooking stuff upside down. The oven was looked like it
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: was something out of Sheernobyl. So I think honestly that
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: this might have been their very first apartment as adults,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: and I don't think they knew to do a good
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: cleaning after the fact, or they just didn't care. It's
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: one of those two things. Either way, it's no bueno.
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: No.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: I actually I spent a couple of days. In fact,
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: I just finished over the weekend cleaning everything and making
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: sure it was nice and tidy.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: I'm going to show you a perfect example that has
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: me worried about the future of this planet because of
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: gen Z. And it's not all their fault because it ultimately,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: ultimately their parents bear a huge amount of responsibility. Case
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: in point, our gen Z tenants moved out of for
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: two years. This is their dryer vent upon moving out.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: You see that?
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, did they not know?
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: I don't think they knew. I don't think they knew
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: what the handle was I don't think they've I don't
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: even think they know what a dryer event is. That
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: is two years of build up. There was not a crack,
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: a crease, a crevice, none of it in that dryer vent.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I'm surprised they didn't burn down the whole. Yeah, in
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: the house.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: Look that.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that is I have no words. It's like
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: they could make a blanket mm hmm.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: I mean it's a very thick blanket. This might keep
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: you warm on Mount Everest. Yeah, you know what all
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: you gotta do is to north Face logo on it.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: You could sell it for one hundred.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: And fifty bucks.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: There you go in the dryer vent. It's stunning. So
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: do me a favorite trace. Since you work with a
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: lot of gen Z, help them because their parents have
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: failed them. And I know that this is not I
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: know that this is a broad generalization. But when I
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: keep seeing instance after instance, example after example of how
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: gen Z falls short on so many seemingly basic things,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I can't entirely blame them because it's ignorance. You don't
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: know what you don't know, and you don't know what
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: you haven't been taught. So if you're gen Z and
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: you're hearing this right now. There's something in the dryer
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: called a dry yr vent. I want you to YouTube
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: it and your specific model so you can find out
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: how to clean that thing. Because if you don't, you're
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: gonna burn down your house, or you're can burn down
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: my house because you don't. You gen z don't own houses.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: Now get off your lawn.
• 32:09

  Speaker 1: Today is April first, twenty twenty five. Let's celebrate what's
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: some birthdays turning twenty eight today. Asa Butterfield is twenty
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: eight like Inder in Inders Game. Never saw that and
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: the Kid from Mars in the Space between Us. I
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: think Inders Game was that the one with it was
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: part of that string of films that came out of
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Hollywood where like kids or it's like dystopian futures where
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: where kids have to save the world or saved the day,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: or they're in mortal danger or something kind of like
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: with the Hunger Games. This Enders Game, May's Runner, all Divergent,
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: all those all those things you're asking me, it was,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: I was just taking a chance. Oh okay, out of
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: all the movies that I just said, I've seen Divergent,
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: I think I saw the second one that came afterwards,
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: and I've seen all the Hunger Game stuff. I don't
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: know what it is. I don't hate children, but you
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: think I would be based on my affection for the
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: Hunger Games movies where it's extremely violent towards young kids
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: put in a horrific situation.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: Especially on you know generation that grew up on Lord
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: of the Flies. Mm hmm, yeah, I know. I saw that.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: I have seen the Divergent trilogy, seen all the Hunger
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: I did not see the the newer Hunger Game movies
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: that just came out like a year ago, like I
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: There was a new one that came out that was
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: a prequel that is about President Snow. It's sort of
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: President Snow origin story and the games and everything. Most
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: times the prequels are crap, you know when when franchises
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: do that. This one is actually that one is really
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: really good. Ballad of songbirds and Snakes or something like that,
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: whatever it's called. Watch it if if you like the
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: Hunger Games movies, you will like that movie. Okay, Other
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: birthdays today on April Fools. Very fittingly, Logan Paul is thirty.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: If you could pick a celebrity and match them with
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: the birthday April first, for Logan Paul is right on
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: the nose. He is the YouTuber, boxer, WWE performer. He's
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: host of The Impulsive podcast, founder of Prime Energy Drink.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: He and his brother Jake have a new reality show
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: on Max called Paul American. If you ever want to think,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: if you ever want motivation to see that anything's possible
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: in life, go back and watch some of the early
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: YouTube videos of Logan Paul. You can do it. And
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: I saw them before the fight with Tyson they posted
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: as like they posted the photo or like a video
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: of Logan Paul dancing like a moron in his bedroom
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: on a YouTube video when he was a teenager, versus
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: what Mike was doing at the age of nineteen, which
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: was basically killing grown men in the ring, and we
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: all thought Tyson's gonna kill this kid. Now, we all
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: have our conspiracy theories about the fight itself, but when
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: you see that video and you see you know, what
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: he was doing at that age early on YouTube versus
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: what he's grown into and become, you too can become
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: rich and stupid.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: He's grown into everything I would have assumed that would
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: have become. It's just the fame and fortune that came
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: with it is shocking.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and I will admit, I freely admit there's
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: a fair amount of envy on my part.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, that's I mean, I have more power
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: to him for doing it, but it's I mean, there
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: are just a lot of people, and the Kardashians always
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: are number one on the list of talentless people that
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: have really capitalized on.
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: Nothing.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it goes back to to the most dangerous place
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: to be is kind of in the middle because if
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: you're on the extremes of things, the likelihood of you
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: becoming rich and famous are greater. And that's the reason
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: why I think so many politicians go one extreme side
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: or the other because it gets more attention. It's the
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: same reason why radio hosts do it. It's the reason
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: why Stephen A. Smith just got like like a nine
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: or ten figure contract with ESPN because he says ridiculous
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: things and people want to tune in to hear it
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: or see it. Even if it's Asenheim, they will still
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: do it. And next thing you know, you're giving all
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: these morons disgusting amounts of money. And it's our fault
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: because we watch it or listen to it.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: We need to really rethink everything.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: I know, we got to stop making so much sense.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: There's no money in it. Ironically, there is no sense
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: in making sense. I know I'm not the first person
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: to say that, but I just it feels good to
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: say it out loud because it's true.
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: Let you release one of your sex tapes.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: I was just wondering, like, uh, would you know, would

• 39:19
  Speaker 1: an even bigger fan of real life revenge stories like
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: this one. A plumber returned to reclog a pipe after
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: the restaurant refused to pay its bill.
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah yes.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: In Evansville, Indiana, owners of an east side restaurant, All right,
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: that's not clapping in Evansville. In Evansville, Indiana, owners of
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: an damn Now, I can't talk too much clapping. In Evansville, Indiana,
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: owners of an east side restaurant say they feel like
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: stored it after they say their plumber returned to reclog
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: their pipes over a disputed bill. Ty bistro and Bar
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: operations manager Jesse Sanders says when their kitchen's grease traps
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: started to overflow, they called Heurven plumbing company to fix it.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Three days later, when it happened again, they say they
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: called the plumber back, this time saying it was an emergency.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: After a Herven Plumbing returned for the second job, the
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: manager says they received a bill for nearly double what
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: they'd already paid upon the first visit, since the plumber
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: returned on overtime. They said they were shocked, couldn't believe it, like, okay,
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: is this really happening. The first bill two hundred and
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: thirty five dollars, the second three hundred and ninety dollars,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: and the owners say they refused to pay the second one.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: The manager says it's not about the money, it's about
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: him just standing behind his work. The restaurant surveillance cameras
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: show the plumber returning the next morning. The following day,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: they say, we received a text message saying he's on
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: our property. He put a balloon into our grease trap
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: and he's not going to remove it until we p a.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, uh uh yeah, you know you call when you
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: call a plumber and an and you say it's an
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: emergency and they come in after hours.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just gonna cost more.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: It is sorry, that's it's that's reality.
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Texts exchanged between the restaurant and the plumbers show the
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: restaurant owners we're given about an hour to pay their
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: bill before the plumber would leave for the weekend. I
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: can speak from experience on this. If you have a
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: plumber that does not work on the weekend, then you
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: need to get it's their business, it's their call. They
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: get to decide their own hours.
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: And what you can't do as a restaurant owner is
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: operate with a overflowing grease trap.
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: It's just the snow alone.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: And the plumber knows this.
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: Uh huh.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: Look he may be a plumber, he doesn't just fix
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: pipe in this case, sometimes he lays it. He knows
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: he's got you bent over the grease strap and he's
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: gonna take advantage of it, according to the According to
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: the plumbing company owner Joel Herven, he told the news
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: over the phone that his business offers no warranty for
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: drain cleaning. He says the restaurant also had a history
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: of being slow to make payments to their business in
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: the past. He says, I don't have a magic wand
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: I can wave and remove all the garbage and debris
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: from the main from the drain line. What we can do,
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: we can snake it. We can make sure that it's
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: open and working correctly, which is what we did. Police
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: actually had to come to the restaurant to mediate upon
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: the owners upon the restaurant owner's request. The police say
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: these matters are normally settled in small claims court.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: A balloon is a brilliant thing, though I'd never even
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: thought of that, But yeah, if it's if you say
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: it's not about the money, then you should just pay
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: the money and try to get out of that some
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: you know, seek your grievance elsewhere, because you're not gonna win.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: You are not, No, you absolutely are not. Look, you're
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: up against it. Pay it, get it fixed. You can
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: fight about the bill later, but get it fixed. Otherwise
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: you're gonna lose out on all that money for an
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: entire weekend. And last I checked, that's when restaurants have
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: a tendency to make the most money. Yeah, and it's
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: also when that plumber goes to Margaritaville, So you know,
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: probably pay it because it might be five o'clock somewhere,
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: but it's definitely five o'clock for that plumber. For all
