Celeb Farewells, Bachelorette Drama, and Rik's Moral Karma · Rik and that Michele Chick

0:01
Welcome to Rick and That Michelle Chick, the weekly
0:05
podcast where your hosts, Rick and Michelle, confidently dive
0:10
into topics they know absolutely nothing about and somehow make
0:15
it sound legit. They're not experts.
0:17
They're not qualified. Honestly, they barely googled
0:20
it. So grab a drink, lower your
0:23
expectations, and let's pretend this counts as content.
0:28
So buckle up. Facts are optional, but the
0:31
bullshit? That's premium grade.
0:34
This is Rick and that Michelle chick.
0:41
OK, well obviously I wanted to touch on some of the celebrity
0:45
deaths that have occurred. Walker, Texas Ranger.
0:49
Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris.
0:51
Which I think that is like the only theme song I can remember.
0:56
Like the eyes of the Ranger are upon you.
0:58
Any wrong you do, he's going to see when you're in Texas, look
1:01
behind you because that's where the Ranger is going to be.
1:03
Like I, I can remember that like like, like rattle it off just
1:07
like that, but I don't remember shit from like high school or
1:10
anything else so but you know. And he and Chuck Norris sings
1:14
the song actually, too. He does.
1:16
He does like the ending where it's like all dramatic.
1:19
Yeah. So anyway.
1:21
What do you? What do you?
1:22
So I got a question for you because, you know, again, I'm a
1:24
huge Chuck Norris fan, loved walking Texas Ranger, loved all
1:27
the other stuff that he was in. Now a lot of people say no.
1:31
So the fun thing about being on the radio when he sadly passed
1:34
away was we and read some of the comments, you know, and so the
1:38
comments were great. Like they were just like there
1:40
was nothing but adulation, you know, but it was hilarious.
1:44
Like, I mean, different things, like Chuck Norris is now death.
1:47
I mean, there's all these funny, humorous, you know, you know,
1:50
things about because the legacy of Chuck Norris and all that.
1:53
So it was really it was great. And then there was there one
1:56
little contention of can people go, I guess here's the question.
2:00
Can people separate the celebrity from the actual
2:04
person? Because a lot of people said
2:06
that he was misogynistic, that he was, he was MAGA.
2:10
He's all these different things now for me.
2:13
Just so you know, the guy's 82 years old, or how old was he?
2:16
86, I'm sorry, 80? 6 I knew he was in his 80s.
2:19
Yeah, it's kind of, it's kind of like it's kind of like John
2:22
Wayne. It's like like John Wayne, I
2:25
hear was not was from a from a empathetic or I mean, John Wayne
2:30
is a man's man basically, right. So you kind of expect that.
2:34
I expect that from Steven Seagal.
2:36
I expect that from John Wayne that that.
2:41
Sylvester Stallone. Sylvester Stallone.
2:43
Exactly. I expect them to be misogynistic
2:46
to some extent, right? Isn't that part of the test,
2:49
testosterone and all that? I mean, it's kind of the
2:51
swagger. It's the swagger of that who
2:53
that person is, right? So when I look at somebody who's
2:56
86 years old, it's like, yeah, why would I expect them to #1
3:00
politically aligned with me. I don't expect that in any
3:02
situation, but but yeah, do you separate the celebrity from from
3:09
the person? I guess you know, and I'm
3:12
curious what you think about that.
3:13
Yeah, which we've kind of touched on this before and
3:16
growing up watching Walker Texas Ranger with my grandparents
3:21
every Friday night or whatever night it was on, like, that's a
3:25
good memory for me, regardless of Chuck Norris, the man
3:29
himself. And that and we didn't discover
3:32
that until later that he was like MAGA.
3:34
And that still doesn't mean like that I, I don't like the show
3:39
Walker Texas Ranger. And it's a happy place for me to
3:43
watch the episodes. And I feel like, like you said,
3:46
like John Wayne, Chuck Norris, they're they're all older and
3:51
they're from like an older time period where being that way was
3:56
OK. I'm not saying it's OK to be
3:58
that way. I'm just saying that that was
4:01
the norm. But that's how it was so.
4:04
Yeah, it's kind of like, it's kind of like a lot of people
4:06
don't realize the $6 million man, Lee Majors, $6 million man
4:10
was married to Farrah Fawcett and and Farrah.
4:13
And the reason why she ended up quitting CC's Angels in the
4:17
first season was because Lee Majors is like, no, you're my
4:20
wife. I expect a meal home when I
4:22
expect, I expect my meal at 5:00 in the afternoon.
4:25
I don't care that you're a celebrity.
4:26
I'm A Celebrity. I make enough for both of us.
4:29
There's no reason basically for you because that was just the,
4:32
the, you know, like you said, the generation it came from.
4:35
Same with I've heard stories about Steve McQueen, very famous
4:38
Bullet, you know, the Bullet guy, incredible, amazing action
4:42
star, all these different things.
4:44
But if you wanted somebody that was homophobic or that refused
4:48
to be sitting next to a black person or any of that, it was
4:52
going to be Steve that, you know, that he was, he was going
4:55
to be he was he was not. I mean he for his ex wives and
4:59
all say he was just misogynistic as you know, like like he's the
5:03
man, right. And there's an expectation.
5:05
So again, in terms of, you know, separating the celebrity from
5:09
who the the person really is. And like you said, they do come
5:11
from a different generation. I don't, I don't knock, you
5:14
know, I don't expect people to to we, we number one, we're all
5:19
different in our own way. That's what I was going to say.
5:22
We all progress or however we want to be in life.
5:27
We're all different. And you have to decide yourself
5:30
like, OK, am I still going to like this actor or like this
5:34
person because of whether they're MAGA or whether I know
5:38
that they treat women the way they do or don't like LGBTQ?
5:42
Like, I feel like that's your own personal decision that you
5:46
have to make. And then you either watch them,
5:48
you don't watch them, you support them, or you don't
5:49
support them, right? Well, you so I, I we do have,
5:53
but I feel. Like that's where like cancel
5:55
culture has really like, accelerated.
5:58
Like you can't like this person because they did XYZ.
6:02
And I don't feel like it's not black or white like that.
6:06
Well, and, and, and from a Chuck Norris standpoint, I don't know
6:09
of any domestic violence or any, any of like, you know, his, I
6:15
mean, his political views are, are one thing, but there's no,
6:18
nothing on record where he abused his wife or any, you
6:21
know, any of any bad behavior from that, from that standpoint.
6:24
And then it, it made me think about it for a second because
6:27
both you and I have a mutual friend and I cannot recall her
6:32
name off the top of my head, but it's fate.
6:33
Remember Faith? Faith used to come in the girl,
6:36
she was 12 years old, and she would talk about the pumpkins
6:38
and Super Sam. Wilkinson's.
6:42
Yeah, but but it was their friend and the daughter.
6:45
Faith came in and. Talked about, are you?
6:47
You're talking about Linda? Well, she was a stunt woman on
6:50
Walker, Texas Ranger. Yes, Have you right.
6:54
So I saw so I saw on her Instagram where she did a
6:57
tribute like hey to a very kind, generous, great guy.
7:01
And so, so Linda worked like, worked with Chuck Norris, like,
7:06
thanks. Legit, she, she was on set.
7:08
She was a stunt woman for a Walker, Texas Ranger.
7:11
And she says nothing but nice things about the guy.
7:14
So, and we know, I mean, and we know Linda's a great person.
7:17
So to me, I'm like, OK, you know, by association, I'm going
7:20
to make the assumption that he's probably a pretty good guy.
7:22
You know, now we may not politically align and all that,
7:25
but in terms of and not every, you know, again, just because
7:27
you politically just don't align doesn't mean the guy's a jerk.
7:31
Like when you, you know, right. I mean, that's.
7:33
You know, yeah, It doesn't mean he's complete.
7:35
He's a complete ass that. Right.
7:37
And so I saw Linda. Thank you.
7:38
When I saw Linda's posting about it, I immediately thought, God,
7:41
I should get Linda on the on the phone and have her come on the
7:44
radio and talk about Chuck Norris because that would have
7:46
been kind of cool. I just like her.
7:48
Yeah, I liked her little. I did like her little tribute.
7:50
So for me, I'm same as you, grew up on Chuck Norris.
7:53
I'm a fan. Mine goes all the way back to
7:55
Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee. He was the bad guy.
7:58
I. Was 2.
7:59
I don't even know if I was born. Well, I was 3, but but anybody,
8:04
anybody who enjoys a good Bruce Lee with the overdubs, I always
8:07
love it when the mouths don't match.
8:09
Yeah, yeah. With a good with a good Bruce
8:12
Lee movie where they talk and it doesn't match up and you see
8:17
that It's so funny. Jackie Chan movies, Michelle Yo.
8:21
So Michelle Yo, who was a very celebrated actress right now, I
8:26
didn't realize she was in all those really cheesy karate.
8:30
She was, but young, like in her early 20s.
8:34
And so it's like, I'm watching this thing on YouTube and it
8:36
goes Michelle Yo and Christine Roderick in To Live or Die.
8:41
And I'm like, what? That?
8:42
And then they show her and she's doing these karate moves and she
8:45
was like, she was a she was a nemesis of Jackie Chan in one of
8:48
the movies. I'm like, what?
8:50
And and and of course the mouths don't match.
8:52
It's but it's still her voice. I'm like, oh, I reckon her voice
8:55
is so you recognize it. And so it's kind of funny to see
8:58
her in all these, you know, Asian movies long before she
9:00
became famous in America and she was a karate person.
9:04
And so you're seeing her, you know, it just it was just kind
9:07
of a little bit of mind mind boggling blown there for us.
9:10
So so for me, I'm same as you Walker, Texas Ranger, but I
9:13
liked other Chuck Norris things too.
9:14
I. Am an honorary stunt woman.
9:17
Speaking of Linda, remember when I got hit by that car in the
9:20
crosswalk? Yes, she.
9:23
Got me a mug and a shirt that is legit from like the stunt
9:28
association because they were making fun of me because now I
9:33
do my own stunts. Kind of, yeah, absolutely hit by
9:35
again. And I still have the mug and.
9:38
Tuck and roll, tuck and roll. Yeah, well, again, Chuck Norris,
9:42
huge loss and I'm a huge fan. But again, for me, when you look
9:48
at the comments, you can tell it's a it's a life well lived.
9:53
When you look at all the comments are nothing but the the
9:57
crazy Chuck Norris antidotes. Yeah, yeah.
10:00
Which somebody I saw had a Roomba that said they named it
10:05
Suck Norris. And they were like, oh, we have
10:08
to. The name has to die now we have
10:10
to, we have to figure out a new name for A room.
10:12
Yeah, but yeah, But for me, though, I think that's probably
10:15
the big one. And then I noticed that you were
10:17
talking earlier and I pulled it up.
10:19
So we've got Nicholas Brandon. He was in Buffy the Vampire
10:23
Slayer. So he sadly passed away.
10:26
If you're a Buffy. Fan somebody from Superman.
10:29
Yeah, Valerie Perrine. Well, she was, she was Miss
10:33
Teschmacher and she was 82. So almost the almost all of the
10:37
original cast, I think except for Jimmy Olsen of the Superman
10:40
movie has now passed away. That's Christopher Reeve you had
10:44
and Margot Kidder, you had a bunch of them that I think
10:47
they've all passed except for maybe Sarah Douglas is one of
10:50
the villains. She's still around.
10:51
But there's, you know, Gene Hackman's gone, Marlon Brando's
10:54
gone. So.
10:55
So this is, yeah, the last of the the Superman cast.
10:58
I think there's only a couple left out of that cast.
11:00
So and then also Robert Mueller passed away.
11:04
So, and we won't spend a lot of time on that.
11:08
I think it's absolutely hypocritical.
11:10
Yes, that's what I wanted to say.
11:12
As well, yes, it is ridiculous that that when Charlie Kirk
11:16
passed away, you demanded you demanded yes that nobody that
11:21
that there was respect and then on the flip side, oh, he's dead
11:24
good. Yes.
11:25
I mean, so to me, I have serious issues with that.
11:28
And, and, and, and I will say it again, and we don't spend a lot
11:31
of time on it. I don't give a crap if you're
11:33
Republican or Democrat. I expect better of my president
11:37
period, period. And that, and that is right
11:40
there, is why I will never vote for that guy ever, in a million
11:42
years. Because if you can't give at
11:44
least an ounce of respect for anything.
11:46
He Robert was a Purple Heart recipient He served his country
11:51
for. Somebody, somebody did this.
11:54
Great. Did you see the meme with
11:55
Mueller? And he's of course all all combo
11:59
combatted out. And then they've got and then
12:01
they've got Trump with a bowling trophy.
12:03
So it's a great. Yeah.
12:05
Go search that. Now.
12:06
That's hilarious. Yeah.
12:08
At the same age, At the same age, one guy's going to Vietnam
12:10
and one guy's got a bowling trophy.
12:12
Well, yeah, because he got out of it because of his bone spurs.
12:15
So. I, I, for me, it just comes down
12:18
and then and then the whole, well, they said it, so we're I,
12:21
I've always hated that double stand.
12:23
Does that stop though? Like when do, when do you say as
12:26
an adult, like, okay, we're not getting anywhere by this back
12:30
and forth, right? When does that stop?
12:34
Exactly. Well, Biden said this and Biden
12:36
did that. Like really?
12:37
Okay, All right, Well, Biden, I always like to tell people that.
12:42
I never celebrated somebody'd death, regardless of whether he
12:46
disagreed with them or not. So here's the crazy thing that I
12:49
learned a long time ago by running radio stations and
12:52
programming radio stations is I would I would take over a radio
12:56
station. And you, Michelle, have been in
12:58
radio a long time like me. It's funny is 6 months later to
13:01
a year, the problems aren't fixed.
13:04
And the person that's in charge keeps saying, well, it was the
13:07
guy before me, it was the guy before me.
13:08
The reason why it's broken is the guy before me, the guy
13:10
before me, the guy before me. And I worked at a station one
13:13
time where I think it was the owner or the consultant.
13:16
Somebody said, OK, this has got to stop.
13:19
Here's the deal after after 90 days, it's your radio station,
13:25
so if something's broken. Sense, right?
13:27
No. If something's broken, so that's
13:29
on you. Yeah, you better get.
13:30
It so So you get you get 90 days.
13:32
You get 90 days. I don't care if you're a
13:34
congressman. I don't care if you're a
13:35
representative. I don't care if you're the
13:36
mayor. You get 90 days to say yeah,
13:38
that that was Mayor Cephas back there.
13:41
But after 90 days, after 90 days, now it's Mayor Michelle.
13:44
Sorry. Great.
13:45
Great. And you better fix and you
13:47
better fix it. So, yeah, I just think it's
13:49
despicable. So I'll let you chime in on it.
13:51
What do you think? And basically, that's that's
13:53
what I was going to say. Just the hypocrisy.
13:56
Yeah. You can't, don't you dare say
13:58
anything bad about Charlie Kirk. But yet here we had this
14:02
distinguished man who again, Purple Heart recipient,
14:07
basically his entire life was dedicated to service in some
14:10
kind, some type of government form, whether that was a
14:13
prosecutor, FBII think he was the longest running FBI, the guy
14:19
in charge of the FBI. Sorry, it's like evading my
14:22
brain at this point. Director of the FBI.
14:25
Yes, thank you. Edgar, J Get riled.
14:28
Up and I just say facts go out anyway.
14:31
But yes, so that's what I wanted to say.
14:35
We say that in the intro too, so.
14:36
Hypocrisy. You're coming here from you're
14:40
coming here for facts, man you we're barely if we can even say
14:45
the name right. We got, hey, we're doing.
14:46
Exactly. We're doing OK like I.
14:49
Said I have to write down like if I have to quote somebody so
14:52
that I don't mess it up, this is.
14:54
Why? This is why we need a producer.
14:56
But, but it's what but it. They wouldn't have it like all
14:59
written out for me, so I just said it.
15:02
And not to be disrespectful, but, but this opens the
15:04
floodgates because when Donald Trump passes away, you don't
15:08
think the, the world and the Internet is going to and, and,
15:13
and, and MAGA is going to be. We demand respect.
15:16
We demand you, you know, and, and I have no problem.
15:21
I mean, people said all people that said, well, I'll walk up to
15:23
his grave and piss on it. And I'm like, yeah, because I,
15:26
because I believe it. I do believe you get as you,
15:30
you, you get as good as you give.
15:31
And so so because you refuse to respect anybody that disagrees
15:37
with you, then you're going to get it when you pass away that
15:41
that you are going to get exactly what you did to people
15:44
when while you were alive. Definitely.
15:46
And that's not a good legacy. No.
15:48
It's not a good why would why would you want your legacy to be
15:51
that you were just a bastard or you're just a bully?
15:53
You know, what am I? I don't know if I should tell
15:56
the story, but I'm going to tell it anyway.
15:59
I don't know. Have I told this story before?
16:01
I don't know. Let's hear.
16:02
It so many years ago, probably 20-30 plus years ago when I was
16:07
in high school there. I won't say names because they,
16:09
some people might know whom we're talking.
16:11
I don't want, I don't want to disrespect the person's name,
16:13
but I will tell you a story about karma.
16:15
So when we were in high school, this guy and we called it the
16:18
senior ramp. So in our high school, we had a
16:21
ramp and if you were a senior, you got to sit on the ramp.
16:24
And if you were an underclassman, you had to stay
16:26
right in the middle because the seniors would trip you basically
16:30
as you're trying to get to class, right.
16:31
Of course. So it was a different, it would,
16:34
I'm not. So anyway, this guy would set up
16:37
on senior ramp and he would just trip.
16:39
I mean, he was, he was an utter bully, like the meanest of the
16:44
bullies. And there was one kid, and I
16:46
will say his name, his name was Greg Romero.
16:48
And he was in the Nerd Crew or the the Geek Squad.
16:51
And one day Greg's just walking down the ramp and this guy
16:55
literally point blank punches him directly in the face, like
17:00
just for no reason. And Greg, God bless him, didn't
17:05
flinch, did not flinch. He took the hit face like like
17:09
full full face and he looked at that bully and says you ever
17:13
fucking touch me again, I'll kill you.
17:15
Oh, and I think the bully, I think the bully believed it
17:18
because he didn't even flinch when he got hit.
17:19
Like the guy took it last punch, didn't flinch, didn't flinch and
17:23
said it. Didn't get the effect that the
17:25
bully wanted, or most of us would have flinched or would
17:28
have. Oh, I responded down to the
17:30
count. Yeah.
17:31
Average person would be down to the count.
17:32
Yeah, so interesting. I'm at a 4th of July, I'm at a
17:35
4th of July. A picnic.
17:36
Years later, probably 10 years later, maybe eight years later,
17:39
we're adults now. We're adults.
17:40
And one of my, the classmates comes up to me and goes, oh, did
17:43
you hear the story about Blank? And I said, no, I hadn't heard
17:45
the story. And they go, oh, my God.
17:47
He was out riding his bike, and he wrapped himself around a
17:50
telephone pole. And now he's paralyzed from head
17:52
to toe. No, the bully.
17:54
The bully and I looked at that person.
17:56
Now this is back when I was 28 years old or 27 years old.
17:59
And I said, I said and I said, well, good for karma.
18:04
And my classmate looked at me and goes how she freaked out.
18:07
She's like, how dare you know? How dare you?
18:10
How dare you have no sympathy or no, no, no, I don't know.
18:15
Empathy or. Empathy for it.
18:17
And I looked at her and I said that's and I said that's son of
18:20
a bitch was the meanest, cruelest bully to kids to kids
18:26
and so. She probably didn't see it or
18:28
did feel it, so she personally wasn't affected like she was
18:31
some of the rest of you. She was not personally affected
18:34
by it. So, so interesting enough.
18:37
It's like she could not believe that I, how, how dare I?
18:40
And I said, well, he was, he was if, if there was, if there was
18:43
bullies in my world, he's on the top ten list of all time
18:46
bullies. And so karma, karma got him.
18:49
Karma got him and so it's interesting, I went back for the
18:52
30 year reunion and he, the guys, he's still paralyzed from
18:56
the neck down. He's in our class.
18:58
It's not, I'm not trying to be a jerk about it.
19:00
And, and people had mentioned, oh, you know, he really wanted
19:03
to come, but he didn't want people to see him the way he
19:07
was. And, you know, now this has been
19:09
40 years ago. So it's like, I'm like, I wasn't
19:12
the one. I wasn't the one.
19:13
I wasn't the guy who got hit in the face.
19:15
Right. So but but but he was a bully.
19:18
It's one of those things where if karma will get you, you.
19:22
Yeah, we've talked about this a lot of the show.
19:24
I'm a I'm a big karma person. Karma is going to get you.
19:26
And, and so when we look at, let's say the president, you,
19:31
you can talk all the shit you want and you can think you're,
19:34
you're bravado and you think that you're, you, your, your
19:36
people lick that, that stuff up. Well, 80% of America doesn't,
19:40
no. And when you die and when you
19:42
pass away, there is going to be people are going to disrespect
19:46
him as he disrespected everybody else.
19:48
Yes. And it's, and it's one of the
19:50
things that I just kept off my Facebook.
19:51
I don't get into it anymore on my on my Insta, my Facebook, any
19:54
of that crap. I think it's despicable
19:56
behavior. I will.
19:57
I will never. I don't care if I don't care if
20:00
they pass the Save America Act. I'm an American and I am never
20:04
voting for people like that ever.
20:05
I don't care. There's there's no bravado,
20:08
there's no amount of bullying because you and I, well, you and
20:11
I grew up. We lived.
20:12
We lived in an age of bullies. Right, we were bullying.
20:15
Yeah, we were bullied. We were bullied and, and for me,
20:18
it's unacceptable behavior, especially from the highest seat
20:20
in the land, right? It just is, period.
20:23
And it makes me go. What is that teaching our kids
20:25
when the president is bullying or making fun of people or like
20:30
the dyslexia comment about Gavin Newsom, like a lot of people
20:35
have learning disabilities all over the country.
20:37
Like what is that teaching our children?
20:39
But the highest, the commander in chief, is allowed to do this.
20:44
Do you think when it's all said and done and he's finally gone,
20:48
because they've already proven in an election after election
20:54
and this, and I will give Trump credit for one thing and one
20:57
thing only. When his name is not on the
20:59
ballot, they lose. Yes.
21:02
So give Trump is due that the MAGA movement is that strong
21:05
that yes, if if if you know, if his name's on the ballot, give
21:10
him credit. I don't agree.
21:11
And also he's never beaten a man.
21:12
Just put it out there too. Just put it.
21:15
I mean. I know.
21:16
Put it into real, put it into real perspective, right?
21:19
Not just not yet. You know, you can beat a woman.
21:21
Oh, and not to be sexist. That's not to be sexist.
21:23
I'm just saying I. Feel like our country is.
21:25
And that's exactly why he has won, because they would not vote
21:29
for a woman the first time and they would not vote for a black
21:33
woman the second time, right? That is the main reason that he
21:36
won both times. Yeah, I don't think.
21:39
I mean for me, I voted for those folks, but for me this country
21:42
is not willing to ready for which is strange other.
21:47
Countries, but other countries are so more advanced than.
21:50
They are, they are. And they've and they've had
21:52
women leaders forever. Germany, England, I mean the
21:55
list goes on and on. So yeah.
21:57
So, so to me, at the end of the day, you're going to get, you
22:00
know, when you, when you say crap like that, you're going to
22:02
get as good as you get. And I'm not, I'm trust me when
22:05
people are going to, when, when this sadly happens someday, I'm
22:08
not, I'm not going to stop people.
22:10
I'm going to go be going down my Facebook like, like, like, like
22:13
like like like like, like, like, like, like, like like, like.
22:17
Heart, heart, heart. Yes, heart, heart, heart, heart,
22:20
heart, because you reap what you reap what you sow you reap, you
22:24
reap what you sow And so if you can't be respectful as the head
22:29
of a country, then can I feel like, I mean, I there are, there
22:33
are multiple days where I'm like, can a meteor just end us
22:36
all? There are so many days I think
22:39
about and I and I don't think I'd feel sorry, right.
22:41
Do you ever feel like that ever? Do you ever feel like, man, if
22:44
this a can a meteor just come and just freaking destroy, you
22:47
know? Well, I mean, we talked about
22:49
Designated Survivor before the State of the Union, and I was
22:52
like, please, no, just kidding. Yeah, you're like, you know,
22:57
yeah. So now for me, I don't want that
22:59
to happen because we got the polar bears, we got wolves.
23:02
I mean, we got animals I don't want.
23:03
I like I like animals better than like humans.
23:05
So you want all the animals to survive and not humans?
23:08
Yeah, I could care less. I really could care less if the
23:10
human race survives. I mean, we are the ones killing
23:13
our planet and and everything for the animals and the animals.
23:17
We are killing all the animals. So, yeah, yeah.
23:20
Yeah, so. We deserve it.
23:22
OK, well let's move on. Update on my car.
23:24
I did want to touch on this. So last week's podcast we talked
23:28
about my car and how I was going to have to take it back to the
23:31
shop after we got done recording our.
23:33
Podcast. Yes after it had already been in
23:36
the shop and supposedly got fixed.
23:38
Took it back after the podcast and they call me and they tell
23:43
me what's wrong which they had to replace of a valve again.
23:48
The all I hear is wah wah wah wah when he calls and talks yes.
23:52
So I know nothing about cars other than oil and gas.
23:55
And yeah, so he calls me and he tells me the one of the valve
24:00
that they had replaced from before when it was in, sometimes
24:05
it can trip that sensor and then it makes a valve is a baffle
24:09
valve. Is that right?
24:11
I think I don't know. Anyway, it will make it shut
24:16
close so it won't come back open.
24:18
And this is sometimes happens and he's like, the part won't be
24:22
in until Friday, but we'll cover the cost of everything, yeah.
24:27
As they should, but. Yes, which I thought that was
24:30
very stand up ish about. Yeah, I mean what most I'm not
24:35
well not necessarily most garages, but some garages would
24:39
have been like, oh, this is a new issue or this isn't related,
24:42
you know, because I wouldn't have known.
24:44
We wouldn't have known unless they would have said something.
24:49
And he said like this is this is a costly lesson for the new guy
24:53
because I guess the new guy was the one that worked on it.
24:55
And this is again, something that they know can sometimes
24:58
happen. And so I feel bad for the new
25:01
guy because not only do they have to still when it was in
25:05
before they replaced the one valve, but because of this, they
25:09
had to replace all of them on their dime.
25:12
And so I was like, Oh my gosh. So I did want to give them a
25:16
shout out because they are so honest and it's Friendly's
25:20
Automotive in Yakima. They have multiple locations but
25:23
I went to the S 1st St. location.
25:25
So nice, nice. Absolutely.
25:27
All three of you guys that are listening, make sure you head up
25:30
Friendly's next time you're in Yak for car repairs.
25:33
Yeah, no, I mean, well, my dad was a mechanic, so and we've
25:38
talked about. So I love telling this these
25:41
stories because I swore as a kid, I swore the same car was
25:46
always on the rack when I'd come see my dad.
25:48
So my dad, it was funny. My dad would have a cup of
25:50
coffee and the. Cigarette the same to you.
25:53
Yeah, the car always, I don't care.
25:55
I don't care What Car it was. It was always the same car in
25:57
the rack. It probably could have, you
25:58
know, it the same car never left the rack.
26:00
But my whenever I would see my dad, it was so hilarious.
26:03
I don't think I ever caught him working ever once on a car.
26:06
And he always had a cigarette and then he always had a black,
26:09
the blackest cup of coffee at his desk because he was going
26:11
through a manual or something like that.
26:13
Anyway, he did teach me a little lesson about about car repairs.
26:16
And he says that there's this book that mechanics have, at
26:20
least back in the day. I'm sure they have a different
26:21
thing now. It's probably.
26:22
Digital. Now it's the Internet.
26:23
Right. But but they say say that as a
26:26
standard practice for mechanics is if the book says, oh a
26:30
transmission rebuild takes 16 hours and you can and let's say
26:33
the mechanic gets done in like 6 hours, you still charge them for
26:37
the 16 hours. Of.
26:39
Course, well, that's for my dad, you know the one my dad and and
26:42
so everybody kind of has sort had the same kind of book or the
26:44
same right, you know, but again, I only defend that by Hey,
26:48
you're you are paying for a service.
26:50
Yeah, and I don't know how to do that.
26:52
So if so, if I so finding a good mechanic is a is a big deal when
26:57
I was in. Especially when you don't know
26:59
anything about cars. Right, right.
27:01
And I had my little Honda back in when I was in Lewiston.
27:04
And so PDQ was the mechanics I went to religiously because they
27:10
were good. And so finding a good mechanic
27:13
that you trust. Yeah.
27:15
Is is a big deal, so yeah. So what was again?
27:18
What's the name of the? Friendlies.
27:19
Friendlies, well they're obviously friendly and did a
27:21
great job so they're and and they but they also know that
27:24
you're going to go tell 10 other people and that's and that's
27:26
really what it comes down to so. Right.
27:28
But I think I'll probably write a Google review, which I never
27:31
do, but I think that this warrants it so.
27:34
Well, when you have ChatGPT you can do a great Google review.
27:38
For them, no, I'm not going to do.
27:40
That write me a great Yeah. So no, but but I hear you.
27:43
A good mechanic is a big deal, and one that's not taking
27:47
advantage of you is an even better deal.
27:49
So yeah, I'm glad that it worked out.
27:52
The car is gonna be great. Good for another 100,000 miles.
27:55
I hope so. I don't know.
27:57
We'll see even we can get another year and a half, two
28:01
years out of it. That'll be good.
28:03
I don't miss a car payment so. No, and that's why I don't want
28:06
to. Get I don't, I don't I my, you
28:08
know, I've had my truck paid off for a long time and, you know,
28:10
lots of lights are on and stuff and there's lots of things that
28:13
are broken, but I'm like, Nope, you know.
28:15
Although a hybrid is looking pretty good.
28:17
That's what we got Jay, the Toyota Rav 4 Hybrid and he can
28:22
get from Yakima to Canyonville on one tank of gas.
28:27
Wow, because of it. And so now with gas prices like
28:30
there, I'm like hybrids looking pretty good right about now.
28:33
Yeah, absolutely. And so anyway, yeah, there's
28:35
some advantages there, that's for sure.
28:37
Yeah, all right. I wanted to talk about TV shows.
28:40
I watched a documentary. Not it's on a TV show.
28:43
I watched a documentary. It's called All the Empty Rooms.
28:47
It's on Netflix and it's I'm Steve Hartman.
28:50
Do you know who he is from CBS? Where he does.
28:54
He does like the heartwarming story or on Fridays.
28:57
I love him like he he's great. But he did this documentary and
29:03
it's called All the Empty Rooms. And it's about they go to the
29:08
rooms of kids that have been killed by gun violence in
29:11
America because the parents leave the rooms like how they
29:13
were. And so they go and they
29:15
photograph all these rooms and talk to the parents and they
29:19
make these books for them to have.
29:22
So it's it's pretty good. It wasn't as sad as I thought it
29:25
was going to be. I was kind of bracing myself.
29:28
And I think it was even nominated for an Oscar, some
29:30
type of award. But yeah, so definitely watch
29:34
it. That's good.
29:36
Over the weekend, Megan and I went and saw Project Hail Mary.
29:39
Did you? Oh.
29:40
My God cried like cried like a baby.
29:43
Oh, you did OK. Multiple times.
29:44
Did you go see it? No, but I know.
29:47
It's I cry. I cry.
29:48
It's getting like rave reviews. And so I'm worried that, you
29:53
know, how a movie gets like so much hype that then it doesn't
29:56
live up to that hype. Wait.
29:58
Oh, I think. It's great, OK, I'm worried that
30:01
that's what is going to happen. If I go see it, I'll be like,
30:04
what were these people talking? About no, I cried, wow, I cried
30:07
multiple times and and at the end and at the end even tears of
30:11
happiness, OK, like I'm like, why?
30:13
I'm like, why am I crying? It's a happy, it's a happy.
30:16
Why am I crying? Isn't it held like the next ET
30:19
or something like whatever? I don't know.
30:22
Yeah, I guess. I mean, it's so funny.
30:24
I mean, I can't give away too, and it's an alien and I don't
30:27
want to give it away for you, but.
30:28
But I've kind of viewed the alien as a dog.
30:31
But. Isn't it an alien?
30:34
It's not, it's not, it's not. But for me, for me, I took the
30:38
relationship like a dog. Isn't it like rock?
30:41
Yeah, it's Rocky. His name's Rocky.
30:43
His name's Rocky. Yeah, I've seen some of the
30:44
previews. Oh, he's an alien.
30:46
He's an alien. Yeah, he's an alien and all
30:48
that. And you're going to love it.
30:48
I, I but again, I cried. I cried like a baby through it.
30:51
But I I viewed Rocky as more of a pet.
30:55
He's not a pet. He's not a pet at all.
30:57
But but I, I correlated my little brain.
31:00
Correlated, that was a, you know, relationship with the dog.
31:03
But oh, cried. I cried multiple times.
31:06
Great, great movie. Loved it.
31:09
To me, it's like, yeah, I think it's I don't.
31:12
I don't think you'd be disappointed.
31:13
Did Megan like it? Loved it.
31:14
Well, she has the book, so she read the.
31:16
Book. Oh, OK, yeah.
31:17
It's a book. It's a book and it's the same
31:19
guy who did The Martian, which I thought Martian was a I love the
31:22
movie The Martian. What did she think compared to
31:25
the book, how the movie was, It was pretty good because I know a
31:27
lot of times the movies don't live up to the books.
31:30
Yeah, I think that's one of the things she was most worried
31:32
about was that it was not going to live up to the hype.
31:34
And she thought she thought it did a pretty good, pretty good
31:37
job, faithful job. Oh.
31:38
That's good, yeah. So, I mean, a book has so much
31:40
more than you can show in a movie.
31:42
But. Yeah.
31:42
But yeah. But she, yeah, she she liked it.
31:44
I mean, I think she liked it a lot.
31:45
She cried. OK.
31:47
You know, you know, my, you know, my wife.
31:48
That's. Why I was asking I?
31:49
Was my wife, was always. Whether she cried or didn't cry,
31:52
because if she didn't cry then it's like, OK, Megan didn't cry,
31:56
so I don't know, but. Yeah, I OK, I don't know if
31:59
Megan's on her call is going to yell upstairs to her because she
32:01
was on a she's on call for work, but I I think she cried.
32:05
OK. But I'd like to think I cried
32:07
more. I was sniffed.
32:08
I couldn't believe how much I cried through it.
32:09
I mean, that's I could not believe, you know.
32:14
All right, OK, let's move on. But we are talking about shows.
32:18
I do want to touch on The Bachelorette.
32:20
Do you know any about it? Do you know, do you know
32:22
anything about this drama that's going on with?
32:25
All, you know, being shown, all I know is that number one, I'm,
32:31
I can't say it. I was going to say it.
32:33
I wasn't going to say it. I'm not going to say it.
32:35
Number one, I don't think she's that attractive.
32:37
That's your own personal viewpoint.
32:40
But it's like, I'm not. I'm not.
32:42
I'm not attractive. It's not.
32:44
About her being attractive. It's about.
32:47
How popular and how much momentum there is for the secret
32:51
lies and Mormon Wives show. OK, I just want to say this
32:54
really quick. I don't care how attractive you
32:57
are, if you have so much drama and crap in your life, you're
33:01
ugly. She has a lot of drama.
33:04
That's for. Sure, ugly you, you, you know,
33:06
I'm saying your personality to me is ugly.
33:08
If you have if you are the most beautiful person on the outside
33:13
and yet and yet you have a personality that's ugly, you're
33:16
ugly. I don't care.
33:17
You know, there's no amount of good looks.
33:19
There's no amount of good looks. And I learned this little lesson
33:21
from Dave Edel because he's married to an 11.
33:25
And our good buddy Jack was like, you know, I want to marry
33:28
an 11 like you, Dave. And Dave said to to Jack, no
33:33
matter what they look like, somebody's sick of their shit.
33:36
Right. No matter, no matter how good
33:38
they look, somebody's sick of their shit, right?
33:40
So I thought we thought that was hilarious.
33:42
So going back to this gal though I don't I get your.
33:45
Name is Taylor. What's her name?
33:47
Her name is Taylor. So yes, I I so I know the I know
33:52
the video is old. Yes.
33:54
It's for and it's an ex-boyfriend and all that.
33:57
So and then and they decided to pull the show because this this
34:00
video resurfaced. He's throwing a chair at him in
34:04
the video. But why?
34:07
Why do you want to reward that? Is it?
34:08
Why do you want to reward that for a TV show?
34:10
Why do you want to give her a TV show?
34:11
No, I'm not saying that she should be rewarded.
34:15
What I was confused about is on the secret lives of Mormon wives
34:20
they talk about this like the video isn't shown but they talk
34:24
about her getting arrested and so who at ABC right.
34:29
I'm not saying whether she should or shouldn't have gotten
34:31
arrested. I'm just want to know like, OK,
34:33
who at ABC did not do their research, didn't know about
34:37
this, We all know about it that have watched The Secret Lives of
34:40
Mormon Wives. So how could someone not do
34:44
their research and know about this or the extent of what
34:48
happened? Like, yeah, those of us that
34:49
watched The Secret Lives and Mormon Lives, we didn't know the
34:52
whole that she threw a chair at him, but we knew she got
34:55
arrested and why she got arrested.
34:57
They talk about it. So who at ABC just totally
35:01
overlooked this? Or maybe they wanted to overlook
35:03
it because she's so popular. Thank you.
35:06
I so I think, I think in their vetting process because they
35:10
vet, you know, they might have thought, well, this is a while
35:13
back, blah, blah, blah. And they thought, well, maybe
35:15
it's, you know, every Internet, everything's, this is forever.
35:18
Whatever I say here is forever. So, so, and, and people will dig
35:22
it up and use it against you no matter what in every situation.
35:26
And so I think what happened with when they vetted her, they
35:29
were like, well, this is this little thing here.
35:31
And then, and then the video came out again and people who
35:36
had never seen it, hundreds of thousands of people who've never
35:39
seen it, then they start writing in.
35:41
Then they start going on, you know I'm saying right so well.
35:43
Because like if this was a guy, you know, a bachelor guy that
35:49
for a show and he threw a chair or beat up his girlfriend, he
35:53
would immediately get old so. Well, a great example.
35:56
It can't be a double standard that, oh, we're not going to
35:59
pull her. Well, so look at right now.
36:01
Chris Brown is out touring. Chris Brown's out touring,
36:04
right? Well, what if someone suddenly
36:05
reposted the Chris Brown Rihanna fistfight in the car?
36:08
And his tour is doing well, too. No, I know, but what if they
36:11
suddenly reposted that from whatever 10 years ago?
36:13
Whatever, whatever that fight happened, right?
36:16
And then suddenly people who had never seen it go, I'm not going
36:19
to buy a ticket for that. You know, I'm not going to, I'm
36:21
not going to support that. So I think, I think in AB CS,
36:24
they were, they vetted and they, they thought well, they, they
36:27
didn't assume, they didn't assume that there'd be as much
36:30
blowback as I think that they're getting.
36:32
Right. Well, and you and I both know
36:34
the blowback does not come from necessarily the audience.
36:36
Guess who it comes from? The advertisers.
36:38
Right at. The end of the day, everything
36:40
is about money. Yeah, and that's why I got
36:43
pulled. They didn't get pulled because
36:44
of the video. It got pulled because whoever
36:46
advertises on The Bachelorette goes, Nope, we're not good,
36:49
we're not supporting this, right.
36:51
Don't you think that that's really, at the end of the day,
36:52
what happened? Probably that's the only thing I
36:54
could think of because again, that they should have known
36:57
about this or they did and they overlooked it and just went
37:01
like, OK, we're we're she's so popular, we're still going to go
37:04
ahead with this. And then when this came out,
37:06
they had to be like, wait, no, we're not.
37:09
Are you just bummed because they disturbed your Tuesday night
37:12
viewing? No, I was not going to watch it.
37:14
Actually, I, I think I watched The Bachelor, right?
37:18
Like the very first season and then that's it.
37:22
It's two hours long. I can't do it.
37:24
Like it's I love my dramas, don't get me wrong, like the
37:27
Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and the Real Housewives franchises,
37:31
but I cannot do too hours of this.
37:34
I cannot. So I wasn't going to watch it.
37:37
I I mean, I would probably like keep updated, just check out
37:40
little snippets of it, but I wasn't going to actually sit
37:43
down and watch it. So because again, it's a reality
37:46
TV and we know it's not. Real right, So I could on on on
37:50
my hand. I can think of all the times
37:51
that I've watched the Bachelor Bachelorette.
37:53
One time Chicago was on it. The rock.
37:56
Band. Oh, so you that's when you
37:57
watched. It, it was one, it was one of
37:59
the date nights or whatever and they said Chicago's on.
38:01
So I watched it and then of course, my good friend Faith
38:04
Martin, who was on the Golden Bachelor and then she was also
38:07
on Bachelor in Paradise. So I, I will not, I mean, I did
38:11
watch her episode because I know her personally, you know, so
38:14
that was always fun to always fun to watch.
38:16
And then I'm sitting a guy watching this cheese.
38:18
I'm like, Oh, this is just, I just, I just don't think it's
38:22
realistic that gorgeous people get 25 P And I'm saying like, I
38:27
just don't get it, man. I don't get it.
38:28
Try to try to educate me on it I guess.
38:31
I guess we're not gorgeous, so we'll never know.
38:34
Well. We'll never know, but it's But
38:35
it's just like, oh, it's so realistic that a guy gets to
38:38
pick from 25 hot women or or a drop dead gorgeous woman gets to
38:42
pick from 25 good looking guys. And truthfully, I know you don't
38:46
believe this. This is how I look at those
38:47
shows. They're there to get, they're
38:49
there to get famous themselves because, because the.
38:52
On a reality TV show. That's why they are there.
38:55
And and the reason why it never ends up in marriage or except
38:59
for the very first bachelor, was it the very first bachelor where
39:01
they're still. Married or was it Bachelorette
39:03
which is? It one of them, one of them
39:05
still married. Yeah, there's Tristan Ryan,
39:07
right? There's K Congrats to them, but
39:10
you and I both know even if even if they marry at the end of the
39:13
episode, they divorce within months because because all these
39:17
other people are throwing themselves at each other.
39:20
So it's. Like, and now you're Uber
39:22
famous, you're not just a little bit famous or a little bit on
39:25
the radar. Now I have a.
39:26
Smorgasbord of a lot of hotties. Everybody's in your DMS. Right,
39:31
right, right. It's like, why, why would I want
39:33
to be married to this skank over here when I got 150 skanks that
39:37
want me? You know, I can I can test drive
39:40
all the skanks. So that's how I look at it.
39:43
I mean, oh, and I just I have no, I'm sorry, good looking
39:47
people like that. I don't have any empathy for it
39:50
because you're going to probably get a job.
39:52
They've got tons of money. They can get, you know, all the
39:55
tail they want. So it's like, wow, I'm supposed
39:57
to, I'm supposed to relate to them.
39:59
They don't have to work for it. No, of course not.
40:03
Do you think that? Do you think that gorgeous
40:05
people really have to work for it?
40:07
No, no. Of course not, you know?
40:10
So, yeah. So to me, it's, you know, but
40:12
that's just, hey, that's personal preference.
40:14
You know, I say, put the ugly people on, you know, don't they
40:18
do? I mean they have had shows like
40:20
The Swan where remember that show where they did like a whole
40:24
bunch of women that needed cosmetic surgeries.
40:26
Yeah. And do you remember for some
40:28
reason we're not for some reason we're just not into that.
40:30
We want it's. Why is that?
40:32
Why is No, I loved that show, actually.
40:34
Right. Yeah, right.
40:36
Why? Why is it that we really don't
40:37
want to see the the regular people?
40:40
Because it's TV, We want to see the good looking people.
40:43
Yeah. And I will defend my friends.
40:44
We want to see. The good looking people go
40:46
through it. That's what we wanted through.
40:48
It but I will say faith is the sweetest most I mean, she she
40:53
no, she is, she is. Oh my gosh, she is.
40:56
In real life, you're saying in real life.
40:59
She is amazing, yeah. And you know, Faith, she's
41:02
absolutely the, the sweetest, most darling.
41:05
She just, she's got the biggest heart on the entire planet.
41:08
I just, I just adore Faith. But guess what?
41:11
Guess where she didn't find? Love on the bachelor or
41:13
Bachelor? She did not Golden Match.
41:15
She did not. She found love outside of that
41:17
show of. Course, yeah, but now she did
41:19
come she. Did come in 3rd I.
41:21
Was going to say now she has her pick of people though that are
41:24
now like in her DMS like hey like you should.
41:28
Date well and she and she. If you know anything about faith
41:30
too, she's picky. You have to, well, because of
41:34
her life, because of her lifestyle, she's into horses,
41:37
she's a musician, she's got her dogs.
41:39
I mean, there's things that she will and won't.
41:41
Do right she she's complete by herself.
41:44
She doesn't need somebody else to make her complete, correct?
41:48
The other person needs to compliment her.
41:50
Yes, needs to complete her. Yes, yes, compliment her.
41:53
Not complete her. Yeah, compliment her.
41:55
Compliment her. So, so yes, so do I think that,
41:58
you know, I mean, I'm sure fans are upset, but it's like I I
42:02
think that that serves as a good lesson that used to.
42:06
Be a lesson to ABC to be like what the.
42:09
Oh so you're saying you're saying before they even started
42:12
this thing they should have just vetted her better?
42:13
Yes, that's what I like I said, this was on the show The Secret
42:19
Lives of Mormon Wives. We all knew she got arrested.
42:22
The video didn't come out. We didn't know about the whole
42:24
her throwing a chair. So this was well known ABC knew
42:28
about this. So I'm saying this falls on to
42:31
them. Was she?
42:32
On your Mormon show too. I said the secret lives more and
42:35
more. She's on that.
42:37
Show yes, that's where she's famous from so so.
42:41
She's what? Is she divorced now?
42:43
Yes, she's been divorced. So the boyfriend that she threw
42:47
the chair out, Dakota, he's on the show.
42:50
And that's so from her, from her first husband.
42:53
She has two kids and then she had a baby with Dakota so.
42:56
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
42:58
But the reason that she's famous from mom talk, oh, it gets
43:02
better. It gets better from mom talk,
43:05
which was their TikTok. That's how they originally got
43:08
famous was there was this threesome scandal.
43:13
And keep in mind, they're all Mormons.
43:15
I know I'm already upset. This and so that's what kind of,
43:21
I don't know if it's necessarily propelled her into being famous
43:26
on TikTok. And then once the show aired on
43:30
Hulu, then it really gained momentum.
43:33
Did she have a threesome? Yes, she's one of the.
43:36
She's one of the one of the original ones out of mom talk
43:40
that had the threesome and blew up mom talk a little bit and
43:44
figurative. I mean both.
43:46
It kind of like blew up mom mom talk as far as like they weren't
43:49
all together doing videos anymore.
43:53
But yeah. And then it also blew it up.
43:55
Like she got like millions and millions of views because she
43:58
does this video where she confesses and talks about it
44:02
about the threesome. And so that's what really blew
44:05
it all up so. Yeah, well, OK, so so she's
44:09
nothing, but, you know, I get it now.
44:11
It's like, oh, she's got so much.
44:12
She has a lot of drama. She has a lot of drama.
44:15
But that's what she brings to this show, too, and that's why
44:18
people love it. I struggle because to me my
44:22
biggest struggle more than anything else is I really
44:25
struggle with religious people who say one thing and do
44:27
another. I just do I well.
44:30
She's not. So there's like there's the two
44:32
different types of Mormons on the show now.
44:34
There's like the ones that are the practicing ones that go to
44:38
temple that don't drink alcohol. And then you have the ones on
44:42
the show that are, I don't know if they still go to temple, but
44:47
you know, like they drink a little bit they anyway.
44:50
So you have like the two different groups.
44:53
I, you know what I don't want? I don't want to.
44:55
I don't want to drag in dirty laundry or anything, but I was
45:00
working at a radio station in Idaho Falls at Z1 O3.
45:04
It was gosh, what year was it? 1990 two, 1992 I was working at
45:08
a race station in Idaho Falls, which is heavily Mormon, so
45:13
Rexburg and Pocatello and Salt Lake City and all that.
45:18
And I remember in the middle of the night I was working, I was
45:20
working in the middle of the night.
45:21
And this gal calls me up in the middle of the night.
45:23
And so she's talking to me and she's like, oh, she goes my my
45:27
dad is a minister, blah, blah, blah, we're Mormon, blah, blah,
45:30
blah. You know, what time do you get
45:32
off? And so I had a one night stand
45:35
with this girl. You did?
45:37
Yes, of course I did. I'm a man.
45:39
I'm a man. It was 1992.
45:41
It was night, you know, but, but not enough.
45:44
I mean, it was somebody I just met, so it wasn't that good.
45:47
I mean, to me it's like, yeah, I mean, I, I don't, I don't.
45:50
Ask that. No, no, no, I'm saying, and
45:54
we're not gonna talk about it long.
45:55
It's like there's a reason why I don't care for, I mean, I don't
45:58
care for one night stands, right?
45:59
Because you don't know the person.
46:01
Right. So to me, it's like, it's like,
46:04
I mean, have I, have I had one night stands?
46:07
Yes. Obviously, you just admitted.
46:09
I did. Yes.
46:10
I've had, I've had a few in my life and they're never is.
46:12
They're never OK. They're never satisfying as a
46:15
relationship. No.
46:17
They're just not. But, but I love the fact that
46:19
this was 1992 and she goes, oh, my daddy's a big Mormon person,
46:23
blah, blah, blah. Well, I've always said that.
46:25
You had a one night stand with the Bishop's daughter.
46:27
Yes, I've always said, you know, if if if you ever want to get,
46:33
you know, that the preacher's daughter is usually the first
46:35
person that gives it up because not always, but repression.
46:40
I don't want to start nothing here because I'm like, you know,
46:42
but but I'm again, it's like, hey, we're all weak, blah, blah,
46:45
blah, blah. I mean, I get it, but it's just
46:48
like, it's like it. Yeah, just like, don't I'm just
46:50
one of those people. Don't say one thing.
46:53
Hey, I, I, I, I say what? I am a heathen.
47:00
I wasn't the, I was not the one on the phone saying that I was
47:03
religious in any form whatsoever.
47:06
What's that? You didn't call her up, she
47:08
called. I did not.
47:09
She called me up and and and, and I don't I, I have my own
47:15
personal code in which I live by, you know, which I'm very
47:19
proud of, you know, because I mean, you, you've gotten to know
47:22
me through the years. You know, I've never, I mean
47:24
again, I've never had a one night stand with a drunk person
47:27
like meet at a bar and they get drunk and we go home.
47:30
Never because I don't believe they're in their right mind.
47:33
So great. So I just want to clarify, I
47:35
have standard, I have standards. I wasn't, you know, she was in.
47:40
She was in the stand, used to be sober.
47:42
That's. What's that?
47:44
Your one night stand needs to be sober.
47:46
That she was. Yeah, she.
47:47
She knew what she was doing. She had multiple consent forms
47:50
ready to go. You know what I'm saying?
47:51
Just like the movie, right? I'm.
47:53
How old was she? Do you know how old she was?
47:55
My gosh, so I was what, 92? So I was 22.
47:59
So she was right. Couldn't have been.
48:01
She must have been around the same age.
48:02
She wasn't that you did, you know?
48:05
Oh my God, you didn't. Even know.
48:07
She was not. She was over I, I think.
48:09
She wasn't 15. Or 14?
48:11
I saw her driver's license, right?
48:12
Did you? I verified she was over 18.
48:15
OK. So I'm sure I did.
48:17
I never heard from her again. That was it.
48:20
Well, I mean if if it's a one night stand, you're not supposed
48:23
to hear from each. Other never, never.
48:25
So it's like those are the rules.
48:26
I'm not proud of it. But hey, you know, at least
48:29
we're, you know, this is a podcast and we could be honest,
48:32
right? We're among friends, all four of
48:34
us. Yeah.
48:35
You know, so my, my big thing going back to the, the, the more
48:39
in situation is I just, I don't like when people say they're one
48:43
thing and they do another. Right.
48:45
So that's why I have a problem with this Bachelorette or don't
48:48
don't prefer, don't profess to be a Christian and then you do
48:51
everything that literally against your Christian morals.
48:54
Right, but. You know, I'd rather say to.
48:56
I'd rather. You say to Christians right now,
48:58
so. I know, but I'd rather, I'd
48:59
rather you be a Satanist. I don't mean those, you know
49:02
what I mean. I'd rather, I'd rather you say,
49:05
I'd rather have someone be honest and go, yeah, I'm a liar.
49:07
I'm a cheater. All right, now I know what I'm
49:09
dealing with. Great.
49:10
Now I'm like OK, now I now I can navigate that.
49:13
Cards on the table. Cards are on the table because
49:16
and then hey, and then hey. If I, if I get myself mixed up
49:19
in the drama, that's on me. That's not on them.
49:22
It's. The same thing as in a in a
49:24
relationship, when someone tells you exactly what they want, you
49:27
know, it's like, yeah, I mean, I, I don't know.
49:32
Have you ever been in those positions?
49:33
I've been, I've been in those positions many years ago, many
49:35
years ago, I went to, went on a trip to Vegas with a gal and we
49:39
stayed in the same hotel room. Nothing happened.
49:41
Nothing happened. And I remember my got back to
49:45
the got back to Bakersfield and the gal went to to her roommate
49:49
and says what's wrong with Rick? And she goes, what do you mean
49:50
what's wrong with Rick? Well, we were in the hotel room
49:53
together and he didn't make a move on me.
49:55
He didn't do he didn't touch me and and she goes and, and so she
50:00
came to me later and she goes why didn't you touch her blah,
50:02
blah, blah. And I said, well, we had that
50:04
the. Roommates.
50:05
The roommate came to you and said that, not the girl.
50:08
You went on the Yeah. No.
50:09
And her roommate? That's weird.
50:11
Well, because her roommate. Yeah, came to me and said, hey,
50:13
why didn't you sleep with my friend?
50:15
And I said, and I said, and I said, well, when I talked to
50:19
her, she said she didn't know what she wanted.
50:21
And I said, well, the minute you don't know what you want, guess
50:24
what? I'm not doing it.
50:25
Right. Because yeah, if you did.
50:29
And then she then was like oh, regretted it and then blames
50:34
you. Or any of I mean, she wasn't
50:36
like that. But I'm just saying like that
50:39
happens a lot in situations. The minute, the minute that she
50:42
says I don't know what I want, I'm like, I'm like, and we
50:44
stayed in the same room the whole night.
50:46
I didn't touch her. I didn't touch her.
50:47
And so she was upset. She went to her friend.
50:49
She was upset like why didn't he touch me and why didn't he make
50:51
a move? And she said, what did you tell
50:54
him? Well, she goes, well, I didn't.
50:55
I told him I didn't know what I wanted.
50:56
And she goes, well, that's what Rick's going to do.
50:57
He's going to go, Nope, great. Because at that time I was not
51:02
22 years old. If only more guys lived by those
51:06
by those. So you can.
51:08
You don't have to be religious to have a code.
51:11
No, but a lot of people who are not religious have are better
51:17
Christians than. You feel Christians are
51:20
Christians? That say they're Christians,
51:22
like right? There's so many people that I
51:25
know that are not religious that are such good people.
51:29
Well, but I mean the thing you've known me for 30 years,
51:32
right? When it comes to those
51:33
situations, I'm black and white. Yes, Yeah, you are.
51:36
Yeah, that. That plain and simple, plain and
51:38
simple. I'm always like you in, you out.
51:42
That's it. There's no in that particular
51:44
situation. And if there's a.
51:45
Hiding the fence. Right.
51:46
And if there's a I'm like, all right, boys, we're done.
51:50
We're done here, boys, we're done here.
51:52
Let's get going. Pack it up.
51:55
So yes, I, you know, go back to The Bachelorette.
51:58
It's just, it's to me, it's like, I don't know, I could that
52:01
much drama. She does have a lot of drama,
52:03
but again, that's why she is so popular and the franchise does
52:08
so well. Is she sexy though?
52:10
I mean, do you find her attractive?
52:12
I think. That's I think that's a
52:14
personal. All right, Michelle, do you find
52:16
her attractive? I don't think she's the sexiest
52:18
out of all the secret lives and Mormon lives.
52:20
OK, there's other ones, I'm just asking.
52:22
That's not picking on her look. Way cuter.
52:24
Hey, I already know she's better looking than I am so that's OK.
52:27
You know what I'm saying? I I already know I'm fugly, I
52:29
get it. But.
52:30
But I'm not trying to be a TV *. Not yet, anyway.
52:37
All right, we're almost out of time, but right, We're going to
52:40
be off next week, in case you didn't know.
52:42
After this? After this revelating, you know,
52:46
revealing podcasts, we may be off permanently you never.
52:49
Know well, yeah, I'll be in San Diego next week so yeah, so
52:53
that's why we will not have an episode next week.
52:56
But I'll be able to tell you all about like TSA, how that goes if
53:00
I see ICE agents in the airport. Yeah, I I love that, Trump said.
53:04
Oh, hey, guys, take off your mask.
53:06
Yeah, that's the most ridiculous bunch of crap I've ever heard in
53:10
my entire pay TSA. Yes.
53:12
Pay, pay, pay the people, pay the people, and I don't care if
53:17
you're an American or not. Nothing is more intimidating
53:19
than some Jack wagon with a frickin mask and a bunch and a
53:23
gun and that shit. I'm an American citizen and I
53:26
don't like that shit, right? So I'm curious how you'll handle
53:28
that. I'll report back.
