  SPEAKER_01: Hell right.

  SPEAKER_01: So that's a butt rocket.
• 0:16
  SPEAKER_01: Three, three, eight, six Astor.

  SPEAKER_01: God, it's gonna be staggering.
• 0:27
  SPEAKER_00: Speaking of hot, 2642.
• 0:29
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
• 0:30
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 0:31
  SPEAKER_00: 2642.
• 0:32
  SPEAKER_00: We didn't engage.
• 0:33
  SPEAKER_00: You gave me a one-word answer.
• 0:35
  SPEAKER_00: A whole sentence in one word.
• 0:36
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 0:38
  SPEAKER_00: We did 2642.
• 0:40
  SPEAKER_00: We did engagement photos yesterday in the heat.
• 0:42
  SPEAKER_00: Our photographer was a real trooper.
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_00: I would have rescheduled.
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_01: Because I I was sweating standing.
• 0:50
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
• 0:51
  SPEAKER_00: And I sweat- Literally, I walked down to my deck.
• 0:53
  SPEAKER_00: I'm like, Yes, I sweat in two places, my face and my grab.
• 0:59
  SPEAKER_01: I do the second time.
• 1:00
  SPEAKER_00: So if you ever see me at the gym, or if I just left the gym and I go to Wegman's and look down first and you'll see where she's sweating the most.
• 1:06
  SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
• 1:07
  SPEAKER_00: Jesus.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_00: I didn't pee myself, I promise you.
• 1:10
  SPEAKER_00: I also just read this just this morning.
• 1:12
  SPEAKER_00: People are paying more for weddings.
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_00: Did you see this?
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_00: Couples are spending significantly more.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_00: They say costs jumped 8.5% from a year ago.
• 1:19
  SPEAKER_00: They anchored.
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_01: This makes sense.
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_01: Everything's more expensive.
• 1:23
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 1:23
  SPEAKER_00: They said it's overall higher inflation.
• 1:25
  SPEAKER_00: New tariff policies are pushing up the cost of imported items like flowers and cocoa.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_00: Two big things that you always have at a wedding.
• 1:32
  SPEAKER_00: And it says uh a major generational shift is also occurring as Gen Z weddings have tripled since 2019, while millennial weddings are dropping by about.
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_01: So wait, the Gen Zers are getting married.
• 1:44
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 1:44
  SPEAKER_01: But nobody's having kids.
• 1:46
  SPEAKER_01: Have you noticed we're at the lowest uh birth rate in the US in forever?
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_01: I mean it's been a long time.
• 1:52
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and that's that's okay.
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe you'll decide to have them later, or maybe not at all.
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_00: Either way.
• 1:56
  SPEAKER_01: Well, there is truth to the fact.
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_01: You know what?
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_01: There's time for that later.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: Also, millennial weddings, um, of course.
• 2:02
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, let me be living proof of that.
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_01: I'm 55 with a 12 and a seven-year-old and a 25-year-old.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, talk about tired.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, hey, do you want to be tired later?
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: I am exhausted.
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_00: Live Scott's life.
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_00: But of course, millennial weddings are dropping because they're getting older or they've already been married once.
• 2:19
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's true, too.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: And when it comes to because I'm an elder millennial, I wouldn't do a big wedding anymore.
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_01: No.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_01: No.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: Not even a minute.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_01: And honestly, I'm betting if you were married once and then, you know, you were getting ready for the second, you don't have to.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_01: Everybody thought like you you had to get married.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_01: I don't really.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_01: I don't have an interest.
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_01: No.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_01: Or I don't have an interest in saying it's not that I don't have dedication to the person I'm with.
• 2:40
  SPEAKER_01: I don't have the interest in going down that whole path again and everything that goes with it.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_01: It's like you reach a point you're like, we're good.
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we're doing it.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_01: We're we're we're fine.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_01: We're day-to-day living it.
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_00: Scott and I are different, but yes.
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_01: So um uh, well, you probably would like the one.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah absolutely.
• 2:58
  SPEAKER_01: But I'm just saying if it was beyond that.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_01: You had the one, you divorced, you did, you know, it's sort of like, why?
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_01: All right, I have to share this with you too.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_01: I had mentioned a few seconds ago how I stepped into the Arby's time machine.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_01: Let me just tell you, I have discovered Dansville.
• 3:14
  SPEAKER_01: And this is I'm not digging on Dansville.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_01: Dansville is a slice right out of 1991.
• 3:20
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, I have been in Dansville a lot more than I have ever been in Dansville because Zach is from right outside of Dansville.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_00: He's uh from Aution.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_00: And so I was in Dansville last weekend actually, having dinner there, which they do have a place, they do have a place that is not nostalgic, but you're right, a lot of other things are.
• 3:40
  SPEAKER_01: It just has stopped somewhere, you know, and and I'm betting it's a bit of an older uh community because I can tell you that yesterday at the Arby's, I literally sat with the nursing home.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_01: But damn was it good.
• 3:52
  SPEAKER_01: Anyway, that being said, we said, all right, you know, Tiffany goes, a couple down the road, there's a store I've been meaning to check out.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_01: What is it?
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_01: And I'm like, oh, all right.
• 4:01
  SPEAKER_01: It's in Dansville.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_01: In Dansville.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_01: And uh I go, okay, what is it?
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_01: Have you been to the Ocean State Job?
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_01: What?
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_01: Ocean State Job Lot.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_01: Open State Job Lot.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_01: No.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_01: Let me explain exactly what it is.
• 4:15
  SPEAKER_01: It's the worst title for the store, but it is an Ollie's that is super clean and super organized.
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_00: Is it in that plaza?
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_01: Yep.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_01: The plaza that also looks like it was built in 1990?
• 4:28
  SPEAKER_01: Yup.
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, wait, hold on.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_01: Ocean State Lot.
• 4:32
  SPEAKER_01: Went there yesterday, got lost in this store because I mean, and and and I want anybody that's ever been in an Ollie's or a big lots, you know.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_01: There's always treasures, but it's a little chaotic.
• 4:43
  SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
• 4:43
  SPEAKER_01: This place was the most organized.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_01: This was controlled chaos at its finest.
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_01: And you have to go check this store out.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, so can I get like a weed whacker and some face wash and a tent for your deck.
• 4:57
  SPEAKER_01: You know, one of those, one of those canopy type things.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_01: You can get those.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_01: Sure.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_01: We're actually gonna be need some pool supplies.
• 5:02
  SPEAKER_01: Gotcha.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_00: We are going to be in Dansville tomorrow morning because we're stopping in Dansville.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_00: I wonder what time they open.
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_00: Hold on, I got it right here.
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_00: This is so funny.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_01: Well, you have to go check this this store out.
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_01: I think, I think it's connected.
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_01: I could be wrong.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_01: I think it's connected to the Ollie's people.
• 5:19
  SPEAKER_00: It looks like it.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_00: This this very much.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_00: This font looks like Ollie's font.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_01: It's very well organized.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_00: If it's not connected to Ollie's, like as far as it's the same owner, then they must be brothers.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, they gotta be.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 5:33
  SPEAKER_00: You know, it's like George and Michael.
• 5:35
  SPEAKER_00: So why we're George and Michael.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_00: George owns Ollie's and then Michael owns that the Ocean State job lot.
• 5:43
  SPEAKER_01: It's the worst name for a place, but you you can get it all.
• 5:46
  SPEAKER_01: Now, wait till I tell you what happens.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_01: This is so in line.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_01: What did you buy?
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_01: With oh, I mean, a couple metal metal pans for the next time I make a brisket, some shaving cream, and uh dog treats.
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_01: Awesome! Which is exactly what I would have bought at Ollie.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_00: I can also get an adjustable calf stretcher.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_00: I'm looking at the wall.
• 6:05
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, you should.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_01: New sales today, by the way, the guy told me.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_01: So anyway.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, tell me.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_01: As we're there, and I didn't pick up on this, Tiffany did.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't pick up on this till we were walking to the car.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_01: So two owls over, they uh were checking other people out, and you hear this sound on the cash register, and it didn't register in my brain.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_01: And I explained to her why.
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_01: And she goes, Did you hear that sound?
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_01: And I'm like, What?
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_01: That's the sound.
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_01: Someone wrote a check and it was going through the cash register.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_01: The old you know, who takes a check anymore?
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_01: It's a sound that you don't because even Wegmans, if for the five people that write a check a week there, that I don't even know.
• 6:45
  SPEAKER_01: It doesn't make the sound anymore.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_01: This was like that old 19.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_01: This is why I said Dansville is stepping into it, it's like walking out of a time machine, and you're like suddenly back to 1990.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_01: It's the wildest experience.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_00: Do you remember this is something if you're really young, you're gonna be like, first of all, what's a check?
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_00: And secondly, it's this little piece of paper that that has your makes the cashier's eyes roll.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_00: Well, and then it has your bank account number on it.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: Like, what are you doing?
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_01: And routing number.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_01: So I can take all your cash.
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 7:17
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, this is this sounds like a scammer on a scammeroonie.
• 7:21
  SPEAKER_01: So this thing, as it goes through in the old and it sounded the old way, the, you know, the whole thing.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_01: She pointed it out to me.
• 7:28
  SPEAKER_01: She goes, that woman wrote a check.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_01: I go, oh my God, I was so used to that sound years ago.
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_01: It didn't even register in my brain.
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_01: But I'm like, whoa.
• 7:37
  SPEAKER_00: Back in the day, they're also in that machine.
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_00: Sometimes it would even write the name of the store and the amount for you.
• 7:44
  SPEAKER_00: All you had to do was give them the check, and it would be like, you know, Ocean State job lot or whatever.
• 7:49
  SPEAKER_00: And it'd be like, Ocean State Job Lot,$98.02.
• 7:55
  SPEAKER_01: And you yeah.
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_01: And you got two cartfuls.
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_00: Because, and I think that they probably were so sick of Granny writing checks, and it was taking 19 years.
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_00: So they're like, We'll do it.
• 8:05
  SPEAKER_01: We'll do it.
• 8:05
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_01: By the way, the cashier, hilarious there.
• 8:08
  SPEAKER_01: Yesterday, uh, as we were checking out, he goes, uh uh, he goes, it's gonna take a couple seconds to load here where you put your credit card.
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_01: He goes, Man, great store, great deals.
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_01: Still operating on Windows 98.
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_01: No.
• 8:22
  SPEAKER_00: We were Oh my gosh.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_00: We were laughing.
• 8:25
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, the guy was great.
• 8:26
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, now I have to stop there.
• 8:26
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, because we're going we're going tomorrow morning before we go to East Aurora.
• 8:31
  SPEAKER_00: Oh.
• 8:31
  SPEAKER_00: We're gonna stop at his mom's house and they open at nine.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_00: And I kind of just wanna even do a walkthrough.
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, exactly.
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_00: Ellie, I kid you not.
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_00: Why is Zach never told me about this?
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_01: I give you props to Dansville because we have a slice of 1990s living in our backyard.
• 8:47
  SPEAKER_01: It is the wildest thing.
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_00: From Arby's to Ocean State job lock.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_01: You could walk it.
