- 0:00But it is time. I love this. I wait all week for this
- 0:03moment. Fridays with a hypothetical situation game called what do You Do? And
- 0:11James will be feeling in for Amanda. I always love that as well.
- 0:13So James. Being Saint Patrick's Day weekend, what do you say we make
- 0:16it a little Saint Patty's themed. Let's do it. You're not wearing green,
- 0:19are you? Oh? Yeah? Is there a pinching thing? Is
- 0:21that over? It's still very prominent, so I'll be pinching you soon.
- 0:25What I tell people is you pinch away. But the repercussions of that pinch
- 0:29are not my fault. I'll just put it that. Are you gonna hit
- 0:31somebody? You lunatic? You're pinching me? Okay? Crabby pins, You're
- 0:35rough. I have no fun because I don't want to get pinched. No.
- 0:40In fact, I think it's a little culturally insensitive. Oh really,
- 0:43I'm offending the Irish by not allowing myself to be pinched. Pike. I
- 0:47believe I'm part Irish, so I have authority there. A leprechaun shows up
- 0:51at the Saint Patty's Day pub crawl tomorrow, runs into you and offers you
- 0:56a pot of gold a kind gentleman. In order, it's get this pot
- 1:00of gold, Pike, you must recite an Irish limerick, Pike, no
- 1:07theme or anything, just a limerick. What do you do an Irish limerick?
- 1:15I'm trying to first think what a limerick is and we'll go from there
- 1:18find it, to try to find an Irish one. I think a limerick
- 1:21is Irish in nature. Is I know? What? Okay? Do you
- 1:25you have one? No? You don't. Heart stars and horseshoes, clovers
- 1:30and blue moons, pots of golden rainbows and a red balloon. No,
- 1:36yes, pot of gold for Pike. That was amazing, get it all.
- 1:41I don't know if I've never heard that before in my life, but
- 1:42it sounded great. If I was a leprekand I give you the pot of
- 1:45gold, it's the Lucky Charms commercial. That's fantastic. But you that was
- 1:49incredible. That was a deep dig. Oh you earned that pot of gold?
- 1:53Hey all right, James, Yeah, once again. It is the
- 1:57Saint Patti's Day Parade tomorrow. Yes, barade starts at eleven downtown Fark.
- 2:00We're going to be lovely, So you're there. You're soaking it in,
- 2:04of course, watching the floats, the bagpipes, all the music come by.
- 2:07Candy's getting tossed. I don't know if it is or not, so
- 2:08don't quote me on that. But in this hypothetical situation, they're throwing candy
- 2:13out. Yep. When you see an adult man shove a child out of
- 2:17the way in order to grab the coveted box of dots that's lying on the
- 2:23concrete, dots are good, it's tough to blame him. So James,
- 2:31think about it. Boy, what do you do? Oh, that's a
- 2:37tough one. Pike. Is it the child's father? Is it a random
- 2:40stranger? No way to know it's stranger. Yep, perfectly healthy adult male.
- 2:45I think I got to get in his face, Pike. Really,
- 2:47yeah, what are you gonna say a lot of curse words? Well,
- 2:52don't you start by saying, hey dude, come on, yeah, hey
- 2:54dude, But it's wtf? Dude? All right? Why are you such
- 2:58a pos I love how not timod you are? And then I might have
- 3:02to throw the elbow. Confrontational I am a bit of a confrontationalizer. But
- 3:07he doesn't get to do that, and he needs to be taught a lesson
- 3:09by somebody has to be confrontational. If everybody was like me, nothing would
- 3:14get done. Is that right? That's true. I find you to be
- 3:15incredibly confrontational. Way I would turn to my wife and go, you see
- 3:21this guy, this clown anyway, All right, James, your turn.
- 3:28The kids bleeding out from a crackskull, and you're just like, oh,
- 3:30I didn't say you guys injured? Oh okay, got it? Oh well,
- 3:34if you just pushed him out of the I'm assuming the kid felt like
- 3:36it went flying, it's a kid. No, it's more so that he
- 3:38was just fighting the kid for the box. It's like you see these videos
- 3:42at baseball stadiums when a player is like throwing a ball to a kid and
- 3:46then an adult reaches over and grabs it. It's like that, do you
- 3:49mind if I sidebar real quick? Please? We have all the time in
- 3:51the world. I was like a sophomore in high school at a Twins game.
- 3:53Yeah, and I caught a home run in my hat. Old gal
- 4:00comes reaches into the hat, grabs the ball and takes off. Oh fantastic,
- 4:03it was the best. What'd you do? I went, lady,
- 4:08just get it. That's clearly mine, and she just didn't. She ignored
- 4:11me, and she just took off. And I just didn't have the gumption
- 4:13or energy to care that much, because at the end of the day,
- 4:15it still is just a baseball. But I'm hilarious that somebody finds it that
- 4:18important. Yeah, Hi, right, the same leprechaun just won't stop following
- 4:25you around to all the bars in downtown Fargo for the Saint Patrick Stay pub
- 4:29crawl tomorrow. Well, he gave me a pot of gold. Yeah,
- 4:31he's welcome. It's now later in the day and he's had a few pints
- 4:36and he starts mouthing off to a group of nefarious looking vagrants that may or
- 4:41may not be packing heat. He offers you another pot of gold, Pike
- 4:45to step in and help save him from a whooping and possibly worse pike.
- 4:51I feel like I know the answer because you said it earlier. Matthew,
- 4:55little leprechaun, isn't he What do you do? Yeah, I've already answered
- 4:59this question. Yeah, I'm gonna do nothing. Act like you don't know,
- 5:01And first of all, what would I do? You know? So
- 5:04it's me and already small guy, And then somebody even smaller than that unless
- 5:10he's got some magic leprek on you know skills. Well, I think once
- 5:14he's a few pints in, he probably can't barely stand right, and I
- 5:16probably am too. So no, I'm going in there to take that first
- 5:20pot of gold and call it the day. Nice. All right, James,
- 5:24final, what do you do? It's the Saint Patty's Date popcrawl.
- 5:27Of course. Of course you're running the touch tunes at sports bar. Nice.
- 5:30You are loaded up on credits, just hammering to play next so nobody
- 5:35can get in. Also, you can hear the entire duration of Creed's Greatest
- 5:41Hits album. Suddenly, young guy college kid comes up, got backwards hat
- 5:46on. He looks at you and says, hey, dude, do you
- 5:50mind backing off the touch tunes so I can play me and my girl's song?
- 5:56Today is our six month anniversary of dating. So, James, this
- 6:06is interesting, Pike, what do you do? I tell him he better
- 6:14pay up to get me to stop playing these Creed jams, because, by
- 6:16the way, you can slow dance to this banger and about ten other songs
- 6:21on that list. Yeah, but first of all, he's a college kid.
- 6:24Creed means nothing to him. Well, then he's a fool and he's
- 6:27got a special song. They've been dating six months. It's a big deal.
- 6:30It really depends on the song, but I'm gonna say it generally,
- 6:33Creed's greatest hits is about eighteen songs, maybe fifteen. You can have it
- 6:40when I'm done, buddy, when I'm done. That's a good answer.
- 6:45He again, I would be like, okay, sure, why listen to
- 6:48this last bread? You don't got to tell me I'm sorry you picked Creed.
- 6:55I can't betray Scott Stapp and the boys. I would never Here you
- 7:00go the build up right there, you think it's gonna go hard, and
- 7:03then he goes quieter. Come on, nobody's doing that again, I know.
- 7:08Come on, well there you go, there's just Saint Patty's what do
- 7:10you do? Let him hit the drug see all tomorrow? Here we go,
- 7:14Yeah, like it a minute in the morning, big Nutty eight point
- 7:16seven? Are you ready, James, Let's do it. Of course,
- 7:19Saint Patti's Day weekend as we honor Ireland and they're great traditions and we were
- 7:25just thinking of the greatest things yep, irish okay, and so we want
- 7:29to induct into the twenty twenty four Irish Hall of Fame. Our favorite Irish
- 7:32things, Okay, all their great contributions. So I'd like to run through
- 7:35if I could, the honorable mentions such as the very very popular band You
- 7:41two Ooh, James and I discussed it. We just couldn't quite put him
- 7:46in the hall. But no, you got to admit, whether you like
- 7:49him or not, maybe one of the most famous bands in the world.
- 7:53In this song right here, particularly it's place in that episode of Friends where
- 7:58they're in the coffee shop Sol and Ross kissing. Is that where he's looking
- 8:03through the through the rain. Yeah, yeah, oh my god, that's
- 8:07like that was the That was the most emotional moment of the nineties. Boy,
- 8:11you know, now that you put it down with him, maybe he
- 8:13had to revote Ross and Rachel forever also making honorable mention. We discuss him
- 8:18earlier because he just was charged with a crime. Pierce Brosnan Pierce, he
- 8:22was James Bond. Of course, he was great in Missus Down. This
- 8:26is Doubtfire is what I was going to say. Mostly known for doubt Fire
- 8:28of course. Of course, when when Doubtfire chucks the orange at him,
- 8:33and says it was a drive by fruiting. Ah, that's good. Also,
- 8:37being a big golfer, I'd have to mention Rory McElroy of the PGA.
- 8:41Okay, great golfer. I'd also like to nominate the Irish Goodbye Oh
- 8:46yeah, okay, sort of the antithesis of the Norwegian Goodbye. Instead of
- 8:52taking forty five minutes to get out the door, you just go ahead and
- 8:56leave. You're just out. You just where did they and then where'd they
- 8:58go? You just have to respect it, all right. So, now,
- 9:01without further ado, the inductees into the Irish Hall of Fame. God,
- 9:05but those are some really strong candidates that didn't make it. Pike,
- 9:09So James, I'd like you to kick us off with your first induction.
- 9:13I gotta go with the band Thin Lizzy, Pike, Thin Lizzy. And
- 9:18sometimes a band is so good that they only need one song because I only
- 9:20know this one song from Thin Lizzy. Yeah, come on, let's go.
- 9:31My first nominee. I believe one of the more well respected humans in
- 9:35the world, who you may or may not have known, was Irish.
- 9:37Take a guess. I don't know who you are. Hell yeah, I
- 9:41don't know what you want. If you're looking for aroundsom I can tell you
- 9:45why I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular
- 9:48set of skills. He's got to kill you skills I have acquired. That's
- 9:52Liams. That's my guy, Liam nets and inducted into the Irish. Doesn't
- 9:54have any money, but he travels the world to murder everyone. He just
- 9:58finds a way to get Oh, he's just taking out credit cards. His
- 10:01particular set of skills as I can get fly planes for free, is really
- 10:05he's fantastic. His unbelievable ability to max out credit cards and still get approved
- 10:09for more pike. All right, time for my second Houns. Please go
- 10:13ahead. I'm inducting Enya Anya. You know when your wedd is, you
- 10:18know the part of the wedding where people are walking out before the big body.
- 10:22So when Lauren and I got married, we had a four piece quarte
- 10:26quartet. Of course you did not string quartet, and they had a list
- 10:31of songs that we could have them play like modern songs and somehow only time
- 10:37by any of us on the West PI. I insisted, you must,
- 10:41of course if they know it. So that was the string quartet similar to
- 10:43the ones that were on the Titanic that played the boat down. Same group.
- 10:48Actually, yeah, James, my next inductee into the Irish Hall of
- 10:50Fame. I would like to nominate Disney Channel original movie The Luck of the
- 10:54Irish. Yeah, Okay, have you seen it? Oh? Have you've
- 11:00seen it? Did you watch Disney Channel original movies? Never seen any movies?
- 11:03He's got this, He's got this on the list. I haven't seen
- 11:07like major motion pictures, but I am very familiar with Disney Channel original movies,
- 11:11and the Luck of the Irish might just be the best one. It's
- 11:13a great film. Pike, my final Hall of Fame inductee, The Lowly
- 11:20and Beautiful, delicious Potato. You're inducting a potato. The potato, I
- 11:26mean potatoes in general. I know is that obviously there was like the Irish
- 11:28potato famin. But did they invent potatoes over in Ireland? Let's just yep,
- 11:33let's just say they sure did. Thank you Ireland for inventing the tater.
- 11:37Incredible, incredible. Can boil them, you can mash them, you
- 11:41can stick them in a stew Pike, am I final nominee. Here,
- 11:43by the way, here we go. Maybe just the greatest band ever.
- 11:46Come on, come on, come on to come out of Ireland? What
- 11:48is it? Yeah? Who else but the Cranberries? Oh how lucky were
- 11:56do we? And you know, God rest her soul? Dolores reared In
- 12:00who passed away in the last handful of years in a bathtub, I believe.
- 12:05Wow. Yeah, I mean that's the location, cause of death.
- 12:11I forget, but it's not important. It's sad that we lost her,
- 12:13it is. It's not their only song. Oh yeah, come on when
- 12:28a rip Baby? And then of course maybe my favorite Cranberry song, and
- 12:39of course we would have to play it if we're talking Cramby. Yes,
- 12:41is it my favorite too? Is it really? And we're not my favorite
- 12:45songs of all time? We're not even gonna address the trash cover that came
- 12:48out in twenty nineteen Garbage this drumah, yeah, what if freaking just glorious
- 13:01time? The nineteen nineties were a beautiful song, a beautiful message. I
- 13:05love music that has like a thing that they want to say. Yeah,
- 13:07absolutely, a beautiful story. Yes, well, you know, it's just
- 13:11it's interesting, I should say. We forgot to say Sinad O'Connor oh yeah,
- 13:16yeah, but she's up there too, also passed away. I'm sorry,
- 13:18Shands, get Amanda in the morning. I now Amanda stills. Let's
- 13:24see, we'll see see in for Amanda, it's me Pike and Lindsay Lohan.
- 13:28Finally, she's given us an explanation, because I know we've all been
- 13:31wondering why did she just sort of disappear off the face of the earth,
- 13:33or at least out of the continental the United States. So she said about
- 13:37ten years ago, she got so sick of the paparazzi and the coverage of
- 13:41her and tabloids, and she said they weren't focusing on her professional career enough
- 13:46and it just got to be so annoying to her. She left the United
- 13:50States, went to London, initially settled in Dubai, and that's where she's
- 13:54been since this. Actually, it makes me a respect her a lot,
- 13:58Pike. Does it make you sad? It makes me sad that people who
- 14:01are just I mean, she probably was kind of forced into her career,
- 14:03but nevertheless, she's just trying to do a job and she's just getting hounded.
- 14:09I don't like that. I really hate paparazzi culture to be honest with
- 14:11you, and yeah she was partying, but you know who wouldn't be well?
- 14:16And I mean they did it to Bieber, right, they do it
- 14:16to all these people, right, It's like we all like to party,
- 14:20Pike, Yeah, we do, all right. So te Pain is jumped
- 14:24on a song with guests who Megan Trainer, Oh odd combination. But they
- 14:28released it yesterday, new single. It's called ben like this. You got
- 14:31a taste of it Megan Trainer featuring Tea Paint. Check it out here we
- 14:35go. It's kind of got that Andy Grammer energy. Oh it's like,
- 14:48yeah, I don't know if it comes down at the club. What do
- 14:50you do? What do you do? Well? You gotta you gotta dance
- 14:52like you gotta do that move where you put your hands up and down like
- 14:56your churning butter and then kicking your legs out to the side. Yig irish
- 15:03jig. It's sort of a Dick Van Dyke kind of a sound of music,
- 15:07sort of chitty chitty bang bang vibe is DVD still with us. I
- 15:11think he might be. I think he's alive. Did you just call him
- 15:13DVD? Yeah, that is the sexiest nickname. I mean, never even
- 15:16show My Life no other than a reference to DVD, like an actual the
- 15:22movie that used to get from Netflix. Yeah, are you looking? I'm
- 15:24still alive. How old is ninety eight years? He was born in twenty
- 15:28five Pike and he looks like a million bucks ninety eight years of Dick van
- 15:31dyk Wait. Nobody called him old blue eyes, but he's got some beautiful
- 15:35blue eyes. This man, what was he? Was? He? And
- 15:37I dream of Genie? Yep? I have no idea. Okay, hold
- 15:41on, would you like me to you look it up? While I talk
- 15:43about Pierce Broston right. The reason not because he's Irish, that's just a
- 15:48coincidence. It's because he is a now convicted criminal. Oh no. He
- 15:52was charged with wandering into a delicate hot spring in Yellowstone National Park while hiking
- 15:56one of the more one of the more heinous acts a person could commit.
- 16:00Wow, they actually have the Law and Order Delicate hot Spring unit. Yeah,
- 16:07have you seen that one? DHS? They specifically law and ordered DHS.
- 16:12Yeah, the handlecases like this, but this one is a real story.
- 16:15And he's been fined fifteen hundred dollars because he wandered into a delicate hot
- 16:19spring. How could you not Moulder and Scully caught him. Huh, yeah,
- 16:23that don't happen. Have you ever been in a hot spring? I've
- 16:26been to Yellowstone a couple of times. Yeah. Is it pretty magical?
- 16:30It's amazing. Have you never been there. I've never even been to a
- 16:32park, not even like a city park. No, we're looking up Dick
- 16:37Van Dyke again. Would you was in an episode of the Simpsons last year.
- 16:41The dude's still working. He was in an episode of Days of Our
- 16:44Lives last year. And he's not even the oldest guy I know him living?
- 16:48Really Yeah, Jimmy Carter still alive? Oh I thought he met you.
- 16:51No, no, no, I do not know. DVD it says,
- 16:55it says most known for Mary Poppins, Dick Van Dyke show Chitty Chitty
- 16:59Bang Bang and Mary Hoppins returns. What were you asking me if he was
- 17:03in I Dream of Genie or that was Dick York. I've never heard of
- 17:06Dick York. On I Dream of Genie. There was two guys you know
- 17:10where they like change the actor of the same role. They were both Dick.
- 17:14It's gotta be Van Dyck, but I'm gonna look it up. Highly
- 17:17memorable. Yeah, Big ninety White and Amanda in the Morning on stage.
- 17:22I don't know if you know this, but Taylor Swift has reached a level
- 17:26of fame and popularity that is incredible. It is kind of insane. Even
- 17:30that said, knowing that, I was still shocked to read this that there
- 17:33are scientists that have determined that the fans at Taylor Swift shows during the Eras
- 17:40tour are literally causing seismic activity. Okay, we're talking earthquakes. They discovered
- 17:47they set up a series of strong motion sensors, particularly at Sofi Stadium,
- 17:52which is in LA and went on to analyze the data collected by those and
- 17:55determined that there was in fact seismic activity. Wow. Oh okay. So
- 18:00for reference, shake it Off, which is a popular song from Taylor Swift,
- 18:04I've heard of it that one recorded the most seismic activity had a magnitude
- 18:10of zero point eight five to one point eight. Yeah. Yeah, So
- 18:14I need to think of like an earthquake like a I don't know, it's
- 18:17the Richter scale, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, so like a
- 18:19seven is probably gonna shake things up pretty good. Yeah, but a point
- 18:23eight it's not nothing. Well, I'm a little worried that they're if they're
- 18:26doing this in California, they're gonna trigger a real earthquake. Yeah, and
- 18:30then mud slides. You see that house going around, it's on like the
- 18:33coast of California. Uh huh, And it wasn't previously, but like there
- 18:37was a mud slide where the land is just falling in front of the house,
- 18:41and now the house is overhanging the ocean. Have you seen this.
- 18:44I'm pulling it up right, yeah, Pike, and I gotta see it.
- 18:47And so apparently the guy who owns his million, multimillion dollar house is
- 18:49refusing to move. He's just living in it. Half the house is hanging
- 18:52over a clill, yeah, dude. And apparently the city went and did
- 18:56some like actual tests and they found it to be structurally sound. So so
- 19:00he's just gonna live there until the next landslide when it does in fact fall
- 19:03into the ocean, and then he'll have to live on a on a hunk
- 19:06of wood like Kate Winslet. Did she famously live on a hunk of wood,
- 19:11didn't she? In that movie about the boat? Oh, the boat
- 19:14movie Tank. Yeah, Yeah, I don't know if she lived there per
- 19:17se. I don't know if she had a permanent address for a time,
- 19:18for a time, how long was it until she was found? A couple
- 19:22hours? Kind of skip over that part, three five hours something like that.
- 19:25Yeah, God, she had been cold. Boy. Oh Jesus boy,
- 19:29that is chili. That is chilly about that. Now, he's what
- 19:34you need to know in for Amanda. It's James, Good morning, Pike,
- 19:38planning a trip to the Twin Cities. Yes, plan to use a
- 19:41good old fashioned cab because Uber and Lyft are ceasing their service in Minneapolis on
- 19:47May first. Whoa, that's Christ sent last night. That's crazy. This
- 19:51is after the Minneapolis City Council voted ten to three to override Mayor Jacob fraise
- 19:55veto of ride hailing pay raise ordinance on Thursday. So it's all about the
- 20:00pay Interesting. Yeah, I talked to my friends who lived in the cities
- 20:03and it's, uh, what are you gonna do. You're gonna have to
- 20:06get a cab or you're gonna have to drive. You have to stay sober
- 20:10or walk or even worse yet, walking don't do that because I walked in
- 20:14downtown Minneapolis, but the last time I did robbed. That's right, robbed.
- 20:19You got robbed? Yeah, at four am, which I guess I
- 20:22just would advise not being you did not get in downtown Minneapolis. Yeah,
- 20:26dude, me and my friends all got her phone stolen. How did I
- 20:30not know about this? It was crazy. It was after it was a
- 20:32bachelor party. We went to a Twins game. We were downtown walking back
- 20:34to the hotel. Some rascals, some kids, teens, came up,
- 20:40spatted her phones out of her hands and ran and then we chased them,
- 20:44and we ran about ten steps before we all simultaneously collapsed. You got to
- 20:48stitch in her side fasts kod alive anyway, So well, at least it
- 20:56wasn't robbed at gunpoint. Well, I mean, in hindsight, they could
- 20:59have had a gun. You know, I don't know what I was thinking.
- 21:02I should have a gun. I could have a gun right now.
- 21:03You know what? Put that thing down, all right, Pike. Two
- 21:07asteroids won the size of sixteen and one half John Cena's that's a ton of
- 21:12senas or eight James Tylers, and another the size of around three and a
- 21:18half adult female American Buyson aka the Buffalo, are set to pass very close
- 21:23to the earth today. Uh oh, you think it might graze us?
- 21:27Yeah, it's gonna take a little swipe like Liam Neese and once said,
- 21:33it's just a flash wound and he's Irish, speaking of an Irish thing.
- 21:38The Saint Patrick's Day Parade is tomorrow in downtown Fargo, starting at eleven AM
- 21:42this Sunday. Of course Saint Patrick's Day, expect a festive entourage of bands,

- 22:30get a Manda in the morning. Come on, get up on Big
- 22:34seven. This is just like a crazy story. I don't know if you've
- 22:37seen this over the last couple of days, but UFC legend Mark Coleman.
- 22:41Now I don't know if you know who that is, but he's been you
- 22:44know, one of the great fighters in the UFC. But now he's in
- 22:47the news because Wednesday his house erupted in flames. Whoa and have you heard
- 22:51this? But he's living in a home with his parents. Now, Mark
- 22:53Coleman is fifty nine, so I don't have the exact ages of his parents,
- 22:56but you can imagine there are eighties, possibly nineties, you would think.
- 23:00So Wednesday morning, middle of the night, he's woken up by his
- 23:04dog Hammer. So what's going on. What's the matter of Hammer? Well,
- 23:07the dog new the house was in flames. Yeah, So Mark Coleman
- 23:11immediately goes to his parents, gets his dad out of the house, goes
- 23:17back in, and now the whole house is burning. There's smoke everywhere.
- 23:21He's fighting to Breathe gets his mom out of the house, and then he
- 23:26goes back in one more time. No, Fike, don't say it.
- 23:30He went back in for Hammer and it was at that point the smoke in
- 23:34elation was too much. He is unconscious now and Hammer or the guy Mark
- 23:40Coleman, he's unconscious. Thankfully, rescue workers had gotten there and they were
- 23:44able to get him out of the house. However, the last two days
- 23:47he's been in the hospital, unresponsive, okay, fighting for his life.
- 23:49They didn't know if he was going to make it or not. Well,
- 23:52yesterday miracle happened when he woke up in the hospital breathing on his own.
- 23:56So you can imagine the moment he woke up. He didn't know, like,
- 24:00isn't parents okay? What happened? And so this is the video his
- 24:03daughter just posted of him waking up realizing he's okay and that his parents are
- 24:07okay, and what happened? I mean, strap in buddy, okay.
- 24:11Yeah, he's waiting in the world. I sweep cut. I'm so lucky.
- 24:18Oh my beauties are right. I had to make the decision was because
- 24:27I got out of my room and walking the door and it was already horrible.
- 24:32I couldn't breathe. I always had to go outside. I can't believe.
- 24:40I mean, he's saying he was faced with the decision, like he
- 24:42didn't know if he could. He thought he was gonna die. But it's
- 24:45like, go back in and get your mom or just call it impossible.
- 24:48But then the really heartbreaking finish. I got him, but I couldn't find
- 24:53Hammer. Couldn't find Hammer. So the only unfortunate ca he was hammered.
- 25:00The don really mad at you right now? What I could? I didn't.
- 25:03You don't want to know that Hammer's dead. Yeah, but I wasn't
- 25:07in vain. Hammer's the one that awoke him so he could save everybody.
- 25:11Hammer's a hero. Yeah yeah, dude, Wow, it's hard, but
- 25:15I do watching that video if you want to see it. It's all over
- 25:18the internet. His daughters are holding him sobbing as he's just you know,
- 25:22counting his blessings. But man pour one out for Hammer this weekend. Yeah,
- 25:26well you're interest Saint Patrick's Day celebration. Just pour one out for old
- 25:30hambone saving lives. That's right, an in the morning, Big Natty eight
- 25:34point seven. You know what's interesting I was reading that even with how expensive
- 25:38food is now, you go to some fast food places. I don't want
- 25:41to name him by name, but let's just say five dollars foot longs or
- 25:45a thing of the distant past. Oh, I know, God, that
- 25:48was it. I was just a little too young to really experience a good
- 25:52five dollars. I mean I remember the song. Yeah, I loved the
- 25:55song five dollar five dollar foot long. Well, why that was a harmony
- 26:00there. I know. I went low and you went low. Anyway,
- 26:03we'll do it again, workshop it. So it's still interesting that stats are
- 26:10showing people are now not even meal prepping like they used to. They say
- 26:14people are much less likely to bring food from home into the office despite prices
- 26:18going crazy. They say after the pandemic, people are just eating out.
- 26:23And I was just all day. So James Tyler, Yeah, what is
- 26:27your preferred method of eating during the workday. I tried not to eat during
- 26:32the work day. Really, if I can, that's a good strategy.
- 26:34But like yesterday, you saw me walk in here with a bowl of pizza
- 26:38and you're leftover chicken nugs that you gave me. That was nice. Oh
- 26:41you did eat them. It was a nice bread. Oh, I ate
- 26:42in the breakroom. I didn't bring them in here because I didn't want to
- 26:45stink it up. No, you didn't want me to know that I had.
- 26:48So the day before I'd went and got some mic nuggets and they graciously
- 26:52gave me to double the order what I had ordered. That's nice of them,
- 26:56and so I didn't feel like eating twenty nuggets, which is insane to
- 27:00me, but it's another discussion. So I put them on James's desk and
- 27:03give me correct me if I'm wrong. You let them sit there overnight.
- 27:07No, I took them home and they didn't get consumed that evening because I
- 27:11was on a fast and I was like, it was like seven o'clock and
- 27:12I was like, I can do it. So I just let it ride.
- 27:15Nice, let it ride for like, you know, twenty eight hours
- 27:18or whatever it was. And then in the morning I was absolutely starving to
- 27:22death, Pike. So I had leftover pizza patrol and my fridge and nugs,
- 27:29and I threw them in a bowl together and I microwaved them here and
- 27:30I threw a little barbecue sauce on those nugs. There's some delicious barbecue sauce.
- 27:33Is good. I was gonna say I didn't. I didn't. While
- 27:36they did give me double the nuggets, they didn't give me double the sweet
- 27:38and sour. Oh that's where that's where it gets spendy, pike. They
- 27:41got to conserve the sweet and the sour. So what's your favorite from home
- 27:47meal to bring to work? Let's say, if you were eating from home,
- 27:49what's the best office meal other than just like your classic leftovers from whatever
- 27:53you made the night before. Yeah, it's a lot of leftovers. I
- 27:56mean, boy, that's a that's a toughie pikee. I love. I'm
- 28:00just I'm a real cheap skate. Like during the week, I love to
- 28:03eat very cheap, very I guess clean. But like tuna, if you
- 28:07can convince yourself that tuna is not the worst thing in the world, it's
- 28:11a very cost efficient, healthy way to eat, fantastic point. I don't
- 28:14understand why tuna still exists. What do you mean, Well, they're fish.
- 28:18I know, well, I mean I get that they they're allowed to
- 28:19swim in the ocean like all the other fish. That's fine. But why
- 28:22do they exist on the shelf? Who's eating it? And why is it
- 28:25such crap? You know, like tuna of all the fish? Why why
- 28:29did that fish become like the one that we're just going to like can up
- 28:30and make it disgusting because if you take a steak of it, and or
- 28:34and or you have a raw at the sushi place, absolutely delicious. I
- 28:37know. Have you seen this? First of all, the size of a
- 28:40tuna. I just saw this video come across my Twitter of them like how
- 28:44they cut up a tuna in My god, it's a beautiful giant slab of
- 28:48meat. Do you think it's like it's like the Cow of the Sea I've
- 28:51heard, Yeah, yeah, No, Chicken of the Sea, Chicken of
- 28:55the rail Yard. Chicken of the Sea is a tuna brand, isn't it.
- 29:00Yeah? I do like can chickens. If you've seen Anchorman two,
- 29:03No, he's this guy who never sees movies dropping a movie reference on me.
- 29:07He's got he's got a chicken champ. The sports guy has a he
- 29:11has a chicken restaurant, but he's serving bat back literally deep frying bats.
- 29:15And he goes Chicken of the rail Yard man, My god, all right,
- 29:22Well, what are you having for lunch today? I'm gonna go with
- 29:25the fast again today Bike Fast, and I'm gonna see if I can't squeeze
- 29:27it out till till the afternoon. Are you a Catholic boy? Can't you
- 29:32have fish today? I could have fish today? What's the deal? I
- 29:33was trying. My wife and I got into a big argument about this this
- 29:37what what is it? You can't you can't eat meat if you're doing the
- 29:40Catholic thing, and then on Friday what you can't just Fridays you can't eat
- 29:44it as I used to be Catholic, But you can eat fish. Yeah.
- 29:48See that to me doesn't seem hard at all. Well why don't you
- 29:49do it? Well, I'm not a good Catholic boy. I guess that's
- 29:53what I knew it
