• 0:31
  Speaker 1: It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley along with
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharman on Wednesday, December eleventh, twenty
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: twenty four. I am smiling for two reasons today, the guys.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: One is today marks my twenty sixth anniversary of working
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: in this god forsaken industry we know is radio in
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a broader sense, it's media, it's broadcasting, entertaining, whatever you
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: want to call it. But I am. I am twenty
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: six years deep, which is not as long as some
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: but longer than others. So I guess can be true
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: in other aspects of my life, but in this case
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: the job. So that's one reason i'm That's one reason
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I'm smiling today. Yay me twenty six years of insanity.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Congratulations exactly like should we get you a cake or
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: a frownie face a movie? But yeah, yeah, twenty six years,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: twenty six years ago, on this day, I did my
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: I got I started on my first radio job. My
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: first radio job December eleventh, nineteen ninety eight.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Just months after graduating Arlington Lamar High School in Arlington, Texas,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I started I was a freshman at University of Texas
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: at Arlington, and I got a job working at at
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: the time ninety two to five KZBS, the classic rock station.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: At that time. Owen Jim were on the morning show,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: John Dylan was on the afternoon show. The midday guy
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: was the music director. His name was also John brain
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: farting I was at. Anyway, My first job was as
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: a promotions assistant in the promotions department, and the first
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: gig was an autograph signing appearance on a Friday night.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Because it was Friday, December eleven, nineteen ninety eight, in Addison,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Texas on Beltline. What was the name of the bar,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I'm brain farting. It was that neighborhood bar in western Addison,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: kind of near the ihop. It used to be a Humperding.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: It was Humberings at the time. It might have been
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: a humper Dings at the time. Anyway, it was a
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: WWE wrestler lady that was there doing autographs. That was
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: my first radio event.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah me.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: The other reason I'm kind of smiling is for the
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: rest of us because, in the seemingly unrelated matter, we
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: all inside the treehouse suffer from some form of mental
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: health issues. Raj has an anxiety disorder. I have anxiety.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Trey probably has some anxiety drizzled into his depression along
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: with the occasional suicidal thoughts. So aren't we just a
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: bastion of fun in here? But the reality is we
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: are because one of the things we all have in
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: common is we all kind of lean in to our
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: pain with humor. And I know it's the holiday season.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: There's lots of reasons for people to have mental health
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: issues and stresses, and that includes parents. So if you
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: are experiencing the holiday stresses, you have friends. Because the
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: question to start today is are you experiencing the mother
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: load of holiday stress? We have some tips for you, okay,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: on how to deal with it to make the mother
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: load of holiday stress easier. Because balancing work, deadlines, the
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: needs of children, holiday stresses, it can be a lot
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: to handle. When it comes to gifts, people often don't
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: see the mental aspect, according to one expert, because some
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: people have anxiety about gift giving, saying I want to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: show them I appreciate them, you don't want to just
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: give them junk. Then there's the shipping deadlines, making sure
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: that it's in your budget, blah blah blah blah blah,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: holiday stress. And like this person, many parents are up
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: against the mother load of stress way before the holiday
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: season adds extra demands. So what should parents do when
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: even more is piled on for the holidays. Experts say
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: parents can try to make the season more manageable by
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: rethinking expectations, asking for help, handling family drama strategically, and
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: giving themselves something to look forward to in January. I
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: have a simple solution for the mother load of holiday stress.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: If you're a parent, I think it would be beneficial
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: to introduce your children to the gift of disappointment this
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: holiday season. It's a gift that keeps on giving. They'll
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: learn for it, they'll learn from it for years down
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: the line. They may say they want this certain thing,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: and they sometimes need to learn that I'll always get
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: that certain thing that they want. And I think that's
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: a beautiful gift to give your children and yourself. So
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: there you have it. That's my recommendation on how to
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: deal with the mother load of holiday stress this year,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: especially if you're a parent, give your children the gift
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: of disappointment this year.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Well, you don't give anybody anything. So I think that's
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: how you avoid it.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: You've cracked my code. See this strategy works on adults,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: not just children.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, there's no stress if you don't have to give,
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: if you know that you're not going to give anybody anything,
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: and we know we're not going to get anything, so
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: and then.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: We all can just enjoy each other's company and it
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: is what it is. And I don't have to worry
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: about finding you a gift, and you don't have to
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: worry about pretending to have liked it.
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: We get the gift of Dan. That's right, the best
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: thing my family ever did. And I understand if you
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: have kids younger than probably ten years old, you can't
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: do this, so, but older than ten you really can
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: do this, which is typically most people are just getting
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: people getting your friends and family stuff that they don't need. Instead,
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: take all that money that you would spend on useless crap,
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: put it together and give it to a family, Yeah,
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: a needy family that actually that wouldn't have a Christmas otherwise,
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: so they can get, you know, young kids, gifts and
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: food and everything else is by far and away. When
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: my family started doing that, it took all the pressure
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: away from Christmas.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: And love it all right.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: That's better than what I thought you were gonna say.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I was really getting excited thinking you were gonna give
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: us all cash. But yeah, needy families, that's probably better.

  Speaker 1: you find yourself right now. This is the Treehouse. I'm
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Dan along with Trey and Raj and if the weather
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: outside is frightful, don't go running. I'm a firm believer
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: in holiday classics. I love nostalgia. I love revisiting things
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: that make me feel good. And this time of year,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: there's a video that I love that brings out the
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: warm and fuzzies and the holiday spirit in me. And
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: I know it does with Trey as well, because he
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: sent it to me and reminded me of it. So
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: bless you Trey for doing that today. If so, I'm
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: going to repeat myself. If the weather outside is frightful,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: don't go running in it, which is something this young
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: lady learned many years ago. In the aftermath of a
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: blizzard in a large city, a live shot was being
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: done by the weather by the Metro Weather team.
• 9:39
  Speaker 9: And.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: The live shot reporter saw a couple of runners running
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: out in the snow decided I'm going to talk to
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: them on live TV and see, Hey, what is it
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: that you're doing out here in the snow so early
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: in the morning, the sun is not even out and
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: this couple is out getting their jog in.
• 9:59
  Speaker 10: What are you doing?
• 10:00
  Speaker 11: And you're saying it was really good out It's the
• 10:02
  Speaker 11: perfect texture for running, very low impact on its dry snows,
• 10:05
  Speaker 11: your feet don't get wet.
• 10:06
  Speaker 10: What have you seen while you've been out running? It's
• 10:08
  Speaker 10: been a lot of fun.
• 10:08
  Speaker 12: There's a lot of other runners and more skiers than runners,
• 10:11
  Speaker 12: for sure. I think they've got a little bit of
• 10:12
  Speaker 12: the advantage with the whole stride and glide thing, But it's.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the when people if you're outside running and someone
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: on skis passes you, that should be a pretty big
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: hint to go inside. This couple is fascinating though, because
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: they've got their runners gear on, so like when you
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: first see them in the live shot, they're very reflective,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: which is also ironic because ain't nobody out there driving
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: in that crap because it's snow and its ice and
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: it's terrible. All the smart people are at home. But
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: you know who I feel really good for besides us
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: in witnessing what's about to happen to these young runners
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: in the snow is the reporter. Because the reporter, you know,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: she doesn't want to be out there. She got out
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: maybe she was on the news director's poopy list, so
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: she got the call to go out into the snow
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: and do the live shots in the cold, and so
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: she decided to talk to these runners. And she got
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: an early Christmas gift that year and one that it
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: has been shared many times over the years to.
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Us, I'll spare Roje. This couple is as white as
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: you think they are.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to ask if you wanted to
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: say it super super Anglo and kind of pompous sounding,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and to be honest, this runner couple, I think we
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: all can agree runners can be a little upity, which
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: you'll see is ironic here shortly in this video where
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: the runners are talking about how great it is to
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: be running in the snow.
• 11:43
  Speaker 10: What are you doing running? And you're saying it was
• 11:45
  Speaker 10: really good.
• 11:45
  Speaker 11: Out it's the perfect texture for running, very low impact
• 11:48
  Speaker 11: on its dry snows. You if you don't get wet.
• 11:50
  Speaker 10: What have you seen while you've been out running? It's
• 11:52
  Speaker 10: been a lot of fun.
• 11:52
  Speaker 12: There's a lot of other runners and more skiers than runners,
• 11:55
  Speaker 12: for sure. I think they've got a little bit of
• 11:56
  Speaker 12: the advantage with the whole stride and glide thing.
• 11:59
  Speaker 10: But it's too nice to not be out here. All right,
• 12:01
  Speaker 10: we'll go ahead and keep on the run.
• 12:02
  Speaker 9: That sorry to have kept you, but I appreciate you
• 12:04
  Speaker 9: guys talking with us. All right, thanks, We've seen a
• 12:07
  Speaker 9: lot to go out here, like he said, running sledding,
• 12:10
  Speaker 9: just enjoying it.
• 12:13
  Speaker 10: That can happen. Unfortunately, it looks like okay.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: Okay, you can you can't even see that that's an
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: ice patch and she's not paying attention.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: I know you can see it through a uh screen,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: through a camera lens, through other screens, multiple screens, and
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: you can still see that ice patch that she couldn't
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: see in front of her own damn face.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: I can't even blame that on black eyes, even the
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: ice was white.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: White on white crime. It really isn't. Because I'm going
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: to go back and from the beginning, not just the
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: tone of the lady's face who slips on the ice
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: and falls on her ass hard, by the way hard,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: but listen to the arrogance and see the arrogance on
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: her face about how I'm outside running and I'm better
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: than you. That's sort of the inner monologue that she
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: has in her head that I'm imagining.
• 13:21
  Speaker 10: But let's take from the top, what are you doing running?
• 13:23
  Speaker 10: And you're saying it was really good out.
• 13:24
  Speaker 11: It's the perfect texture for running, very low impact on extress,
• 13:28
  Speaker 11: knows your feet don't get wet.
• 13:29
  Speaker 10: What have you seen while you've been out running? It's
• 13:31
  Speaker 10: been a lot of fun.
• 13:32
  Speaker 12: There's a lot of other runners and more skiers than runners,
• 13:34
  Speaker 12: for sure. I think they've got a little bit of
• 13:35
  Speaker 12: the advantage with the whole stride and glide thing.
• 13:38
  Speaker 10: But it's too nice to not be out here.
• 13:40
  Speaker 9: All right, well, go ahead and keep on the run.
• 13:41
  Speaker 9: That's sorry to have kept you, but I appreciate you
• 13:43
  Speaker 9: guys talking with us.
• 13:44
  Speaker 10: All right, thanks.
• 13:45
  Speaker 9: We've seen a lot of people out here, like you said,
• 13:47
  Speaker 9: running sledding.
• 13:49
  Speaker 10: I'm just enjoying it. One thing that can happen.
• 13:53
  Speaker 9: Unfortunately, Chelsea's okay, okay, yes, okay.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, see Chelse. He gives a thumbs up, and then
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: she's immediately like walking over towards the sidewalk and she
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: you know, she ain't okay, yeah, because not just her ass,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: not just her back, not just her head that's bruised,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: but also a severe, severe bruise to the ego, which
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: she needed.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Yes, it's fantastic, Thank you for making my day.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: I live to please Roger. As my therapist says, it's
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: a gift and a curse. But let's enjoy it one
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: more time. The young runners. And only the only thing
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: that would have made this clip better is if when
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: he tries to help her up, had he slipped also,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: that's the only thing missing from this. But it's still
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: it's still a beautiful moment in the snow.
• 14:53
  Speaker 10: What are you doing running and you're saying it was
• 14:54
  Speaker 10: really good out.
• 14:55
  Speaker 11: It's the perfect texture for running very low impact on it.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: It's the perfect texture for FI.
• 15:02
  Speaker 11: It's the perfect texture for running very low impact on its.
• 15:05
  Speaker 11: Dress nows your feet don't get wet.
• 15:07
  Speaker 10: What have you seen while you've been out running? It's
• 15:08
  Speaker 10: been a lot of fun.
• 15:09
  Speaker 12: There's a lot of other runners and more skiers than runners,
• 15:12
  Speaker 12: for sure. I think they've got a little bit of
• 15:13
  Speaker 12: the advantage with the whole stride and glide thing. But
• 15:15
  Speaker 12: it's too nice to not be out here.
• 15:17
  Speaker 9: All right, We'll go ahead and keep on the run.
• 15:19
  Speaker 9: That's sorry to have kept you, but I appreciate you
• 15:20
  Speaker 9: guys talking with us.
• 15:22
  Speaker 10: All right, thanks.
• 15:23
  Speaker 9: We've seen a lot of people out here, like you said,
• 15:25
  Speaker 9: running sledding, just enjoying it.
• 15:27
  Speaker 10: One thing, oops, that can happen.
• 15:30
  Speaker 9: Unfortunately it looks like Chelsea's Okay, okay, yes, okay.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Oh. It's one of the great all time uses of
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: one of my favorite phrases, when something really bad or
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: painful happens to someone. Okay. It's one of the great
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: rhetorical questions because whenever you ask it, you know they're not.
• 15:54
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I got to give credit to that. She is a pro,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: because I would not have held it together that well,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I would have I would still be laughing this this
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: moment in time. This Winter Classic is at least nine
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: years old, and if I was this reporter, I'd still
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: beyond that live shot, laughing my ass.
• 16:21
  Speaker 13: Off, Oh you crazy whites.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: The thing is, though, like I know that there are
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: certain stereotypes, but this is not an all white people thing, Raj,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: because you're not going to see me out there doing
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: that's nonsense.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's running in the snow is an all
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: white people activity. You have to admit that, maybe from
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: from a brown perspective. I can tell you. That's why
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: I wait for trade to say it.
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 17:04
  Speaker 13: I don't even have to do it. It's just like, yeah,
• 17:06
  Speaker 13: they're white.
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: I'm like, yeah, I thought about the you know, it's like, yeah,
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: you're probably not going to see a Kenyan marathon are
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: running in the snow.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: That's the new litmus test. If if you want to
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: go outside for a run, look out the window. If
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: you see at least one Kenyon, you're fine. If it's
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: no Kenyons, you get your fuzzy bunny slippers on and
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: you stay inside where it's warm and it's safe.
• 17:39
  Speaker 13: Jesus, if you haven't run one.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the one rule that you you have your running buddy, like, Hey,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: you've seen Kenyons out there?
• 17:53

  Speaker 1: for us on there the Treehouse Podcast. You are inside
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: the Treehouse along with Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. I'm
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Daniel Malley, still thinking about the one Kenyon rule before
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: going outside for a run. It's gonna stay with me
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: for a long time. There is something important also that
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: we need to cover inside the Treehouse. This is a
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: story we've been following for I'd say a fairly long time,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: and it's a story that while a lot of us
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: know about it, it's really not covered as in depthly
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: as I think it should. And the latest example of
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: this was just a few weeks ago at a congressional hearing,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: an ex government and military official, multiples of them, testified
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: on mysterious UFOs, saying we are not alone and these
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: situations have of course long fascinated the public. But again,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: this is a recent congressional hearing where ex government and
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: military officials are testifying to the existence of aliens, saying
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: UFOs are real and Americans deserve to know the truth.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: That's according to former government and military officials to a
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: congressional panel in November. They go on to say, we
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: should not turn a blind eye, but boldly face this
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: new reality and learn from it. That's according to you.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: That's according to retired United States Navy Rear Admiral Tim Galadet,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: who said he saw a video of the Wall Street Journal.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: To continue reading your article, please subscribe to the Wall
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: Street Journal Black Friday, Cyber Week point five cents per week.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Subscribe now. So they put that story behind a paywall,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Wall Street Journal. This is where I'd like
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: to introduce the Daily Star. While not as credible as
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal, the Daily Star cares about our safety,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: and the Daily Star has put together a list for
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: us to tell how to know if you've been abducted
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: by aliens. So we've got at military and government officials
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: telling us aliens are real, and then the Wall Street
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Journal puts all that important information behind a paywall. Leave
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: it up to the Daily Star how to tell if
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: you've been abducted by aliens, from body examination to false memories.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: Are you guys ready for this?
• 21:16
  Speaker 13: M hm?
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: The thought of being abducted by aliens is something that
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: would send shivers down anyone's back. But have you ever
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: thought about what you would do if it really happened?
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Would you know it?
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: Would you know what to do if it were to happen.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: While there's no concrete evidence that alien abductions have actually occurred,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: there are still a number of people out there who
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: claim it has happened to them. Annoyingly, none of them
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: had a camera handy during the event, and so we
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: only have to take their word for it. Skepticism Just
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: push that aside. There is advice available about what to
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: do and even how to prevent it. Okay, yes, all right.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: The tips the Daily Star has gathered come during a
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: flurry of UFO activity. If you're concerned you might have
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: been abducted by aliens, some things to consider. Firstly, document
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: your experience. Keep a journal by your bed and immediately
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: record the date, time, and any memories you have. Another
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: thing to do is examine your body. Get that hand
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: mirror and check every nook and cranny. Look for any
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: unusual marks, scratches, bruises, bumps, because no one wants alien bumps.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: You can also use a UV light to inspect your
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: body in the dark room. I'd recommend making sure an
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: no one else is home at the time, because they're
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: gonna walk in. They also say to check your clothing
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: and see if it's in the same condition as it
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: was before the event. If it's different, you need to
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: put it in a brown paper bag and store it
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: in a dark closet for at least a month.
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: I don't know why that doesn't make any sense with it.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: They also say people can develop false memories of being
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: abducted by aliens, saying this can happen if someone is
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: predisposed to believe that certain experiences are signs of an abduction,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: or if they seek out a therapist who is receptive
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: to that explanation. Other tricks of the mind can occur
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: during sleep paralysies, which is a common condition that causes
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: people to be awake but unable to move for a
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: short time. People experiencing sleep paralysis often have hallucinations, which
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: can include seeing things like lights, animals, or strange figures.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Those hallucinations can sometimes lead to people to believe they've
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: been abducted by aliens, So don't get tricked, okay. Some
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: people who have claimed to have been abducted by aliens
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: to describe experiences that include feeling a strong desire to
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: be somewhere at a specific time, waking up suddenly and
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: feeling paralyzed or terrified, seeing shadowy figures in the room,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: being subjected to medical procedures, being returned to the same place,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: and circumstances they were in before being taken okay. Someone
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: even wrote a book called How to Defend Yourself Against
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Alien Abduction. The author of this book is Anne Druffel,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: based on her forty year research in UFOs, including two
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty k studies, seventy of which involve people
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: who allegedly successfully resisted abduction. So I was always fascinated
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: by the stories of people who said they were abducted
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: by aliens. But now I'm equally as fascinated by the
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: people who resisted the abduction, because they're going to raise
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: their hand and be like, hey, hey, I was not
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: abducted by aliens. Congratulations. That's the majority of people.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I just.
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: You could take out how to tell you're abducted from
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: a you've been abducted by aliens and put in how
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: to tell if you've been on a bender.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Well, that's the case that I've been abducted many times.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Again later, that's probably gonna happen again.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: I like how two of the tips were punctuality and
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: you're still in the same spot.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's very true.
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: Being on time and being in the same place, that's
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: a great tip.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: So you're telling me the homeless people have also been
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: abducted by.
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: You return to where you started. Now, you just passed
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: that at the bar and you woke up.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: But when you tell everyone around you at the bar
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: that you were just abducted by aliens, they're all going
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: to smile and nod and say, yes, you were, we
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: all saw it. You were abducted by the Jaeger aliens.
• 25:58
  Speaker 13: Those whiskey marshes.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the other thing.
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: You can also title that how to tell if You've
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: been at a Diddy party, very similar criteria.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: You're in the tree house.
• 26:13
  Speaker 8: Visit us online at treehouseonair dot com.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Have you woken up wet and a little confused.
• 26:33

  Speaker 7: Visit us online at Treehouse on air dot com.

  Speaker 1: You can advertise right here inside the treehouse. Sponsorship opportunities

• 26:58
  Speaker 1: Trey and Raj. And while we're having a good day
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: here inside the treehouse, it's another bad day for Alex
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Jones from info Wars because a Connecticut appeals court last
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Friday largely upheld a nearly one point three billion dollar
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: defamation verdict against him, the conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, in
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: a case accusing the info Wars founder of spreading lies
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: about the twenty twelve Sandy Hook mass shooting. The three
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: judge panel of the Connecticut Appellate Court found that a
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: jury's October twenty twenty two decision to award nine hundred
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: and sixty five million damages plus attorney's fees and cost
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: of families of the shooting victims was not unreasonable given
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: the mental anguish they suffered due to the lies by
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: Jones about Sandy Hook. So there you have it, another
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: bad day for Alex Jones, who must still pay one
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: point three billion dollars in the Sandy Hook defamation case.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: That's according to the appeals court.
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: And what is just just one of the greatest twists
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: is the fact the onion button.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: Is his company.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: That's right, his company filed for bankruptcy the sea where
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: did it go? His company, Free Speech Systems. Jones's company,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Free Speech Systems, filed for Chapter eleven bankruptcy protection in
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty two after the verdict in Connecticut, and another
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: right here in Texas, where a jury in a similar
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: case awarded other Sandy Hook parents forty nine million dollars.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: So to say that it's a bad day for Alex
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Jones is a bit of an understatement, And we figured
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: the best way to find out how he feels about
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: this would probably be just that ask him directly wouldn't
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: you agree?
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 28:55
  Speaker 13: Yeah, all right, let's do that.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Let's bring in Alex Jones.
• 28:58
  Speaker 13: Wow, Hello, Hi, Alan, how you doing, buddy?
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Welcome to the treehouse. Terrible.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: Can you believe everything that's going on? Can you believe
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: they're gonna make me pay one point three billion dollars
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: to those families?
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, sure can sure no one asked you.
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, come on, one point three billion for a few
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: wet lies.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: That's absurd.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: Since when you have to be held accountable for the
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: things you say in this country?
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: Uh? Since seventeen ninety one?
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: Shut up, Trey know at all? All right, Look, I'm
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: gonna be honest with you. Okay, I'm Alex Jones, and
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: I can't afford that. So I'm gonna have to find
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: some creative ways to make some money. And I got
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: who I'd like to run past you, fellas right here
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: in the treehouse.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: All right, shoot shoot, shoot your ideas over. Let's see
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: so uh.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: I heard OnlyFans is a good place to make some money.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: The way I see it is, if that Sophie rain
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: girl can make forty three million a year, I can too.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: How much did you pay to watch me get pegged
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: by short services.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: The robots.
• 30:21
  Speaker 13: That's priceless.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: You remember them monkeys that escaped the testing lab in
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: South Carolina.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I think I got to charge people.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: To watch me live among them.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: And maybe I could tell them monkeys some stories I
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: made up and see how many of them are stupid
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: enough to believe me.
• 30:38
  Speaker 13: Yeah, the monkeys, mm hmm, okay, you're cruelty okay.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: Or maybe I could start a church, become a TV preacher.
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: They may kill her money, Yeah, make killer money, don't
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: pay a lock of taxes, don't have to do anything
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: they say, and when they get caught line or cheating
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: or whatever, they just pretend to repent and people give
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: them even more money.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: It's genius.
• 31:04
  Speaker 13: That would be the best way to go.
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: What do y'all think about door to door hand jobs?
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: Depends on the neighborhood.
• 31:14
  Speaker 13: I don't even have to come in.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: I could just do it through the mail slot, so
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: a postal glory hall?
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: Or how about this, As I'm thinking at the top
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: of my head, the libtards. They can pay me to
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: become one of them. Yeah, that's it. I can spout
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: all sorts of Democrat nonsense. I don't believe anything I
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: say anyway, So that'll be easy.
• 31:41
  Speaker 13: That would work too. That'd be a great way to
• 31:43
  Speaker 13: raise some funds.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: How much do you think I can get for stealing
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: candy from babies? I hear that's easy and lucrative, or
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: maybe some bumper stickers they can.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Say, have you ever.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Been tongue kissed by Alex Jones?
• 32:03
  Speaker 13: I think you'll sell too.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: So I got desperate and asked President Trump for a loan.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: He said, sure, it didn't make the Secret Service give
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: me a swirling and his golden toilet. That's collateral. He
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: hadn't sent the money yet, but I think it's good
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: for it, right.
• 32:20
  Speaker 13: Right, absolutely.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: A good I was worried.
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: Oh hey, one last idea, because I'm scaring my dog.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: This goes against everything I stand for, but I'm willing
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: to try anything. I could become a border coyote, you know,
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: one of them illegal immigrant traffickers.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, he makes money off the hopes and dreams of.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: Poor people, So it's not like a huge stretch for
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: me philosophically.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Alex, have you ever thought about just telling the truth?
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: There's no money in that?
• 33:00
  Speaker 13: Fair enough, solid point.
• 33:05

• 34:17
  Speaker 5: It's amazing how much Alex Jones and Luke Bryant sound alike.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Sure is.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Very amazing, uncanny, amazing. The main thing is that it's
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: not that it's perfect. It's just believable enough, just enough. Also,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: I can only do do that. I can only do
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: his voice for a few minutes. Man, that's tough. That's
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: tough on your vocal cords. Luke bryand a lot easier
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: all right today, is Wednesday, December eleventh, twenty twenty four.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Let's celebrate with some birthdays. What do you said?
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: All right?
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: From the Marvel Cinematic Universe, among a bunch of other things.
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: Hailey Steinfeld is twenty eight today. She's Kate Bishop on Hawkeye.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: She's also going to be taking a larger role or
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: a yeah, character is still in the MCU. It's gonna
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: play a larger role in upcoming roles. Seeing how many
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: times I can say the word role apparently in thirty seconds.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: But very talented actress. Actually I like her character a
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: lot in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She's also Emily in
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: the Pitch Perfect movies. She was Gwynn Stacy Spider Gwyn
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: in Spider Man Into the Spider Verse, and Charlie in
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: the Transformers movie Bumblebee, which is one of the few
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: movies I have not wasted time on. Ryder Strong, who
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: played Sean on Boy meads World and Girl meads World
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: is forty four. Based on the name, you'd think you
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: know male porn actor, but no, just regular actor.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: Wait, I'm sorry, we got to back up a second.
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: Of all the movies you said you didn't waste your
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: time on Bumblebee and what part of the Transformer series. Yeah,
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: it just it was over fifty percent on Rotten Tomatoes,
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: and that just rules it out.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing, snob, I don't just see bad movies.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: I don't just like bad movies. I see a lot
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: of movies. I'm just sometimes i'll watch a bad movie
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: because when you see a lot, it's like it's like broadcasting.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you turn on to radio.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you're you're gonna hear some not from us, but
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: sometimes you're telling to radio. There's lots of stations you're
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: gonna hear some same thing with movies. I watched a
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: lot of movies. Sometimes I'm gonna watch some. You're the
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: Midday Show of Movies. Wow, look, I have no retort.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: Other birthdays today from the w W E Ray, Mysterio
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Junior is forty nine. I'm sorry, he's fifty today. Fifty today.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: I'm confused by this birthday. Courtney Hengler is forty six today.

  Speaker 1: Plays Amanda LaRusso on Cobra Kai. Oh, now I get it. Okay,
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: that's Daniel Larusso's wife on Cobra Kai. She is forty
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: six today. She also plays Missy Cooper who is Sheldon's
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: sister on The Big Bang Theory, which Trey and I
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: like in Roch Hates.
• 37:54
  Speaker 13: Yes, And I also think seventy five years old now
• 37:57
  Speaker 13: could be?
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Could be? And it's weird because at first this this
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: freaked me out because when this said the Courtney Hengler
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: is forty six, and it says Amanda LaRusso on the
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Cobra Kai Show, I thought, Okay, I know the girl
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: that plays the little LaRusso girl is older than her character,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: but I don't think she's my age.
• 38:21
  Speaker 13: She's like twenty.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: Plays the mom.
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, she's like twenty eight to the girl that
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: plays the kid.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah. The girl that plays the daughters in
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: her twenties. Yeah, we do know that other birthdays today
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: most Death is fifty one, Monique is fifty seven. Nikki
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: six from Raj's favorite band of all time, Motley Cruez

  Speaker 1: sixty six today. Does that still hold true? Raj, Motley
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Crue the best of all time in your eyes.
• 38:47
  Speaker 13: One hundred percent, always will be.
• 38:49
  Speaker 6: No.
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: You just have to understand that Vince can't sing, and
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: you'll love the band. If you see him live, just go.
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: If you go to a live show, just go, he's
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: not going to be able to sing a word. It's fantastic.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: He can kick sound guys. However, I'm pretty sure that's
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: the show. It's one of the lawsuits he was the
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: subject of after doing that at Gillies and Dallas. Other birthdays. Today,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Jermaine Jackson is seventy.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: It's the holiday season, which a lot of people now
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: make fun of as being Mariah season, as in Mariah
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Carey because she's got the mega Christmas song that's all
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: you know, all I want for Christmas is you, And
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: that's true. It kind of is Mariah Carey season, and
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: she's completely leaned into it. And I remember the story
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: real quick. The reason, the reason I'm saying this is
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: that it's another singer's favorite time of year. That's Brenda Lee.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: She is eighty this year. She's probably, you know, the
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Mariah Carey of Christmas before Mariah Carey was because her
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: smash hit is still a smash hit rocking around the
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: Christmas tree.
• 39:58
  Speaker 13: Oh wow, okay, so she is, she.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: Is eighty today, But what Mariah Carey. I remember this
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: story from a couple of years ago. It's so much
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: is Mariah season because just off her Christmas hit, the
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: one hit All I Want for Christmas is You. She
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: makes north of six hundred thousand dollars in the span
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: of a couple of months.
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: Three million. They just updated it. She makes three million
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: a year off All I Want for Christmas.
• 40:24
  Speaker 13: Yeah, neither one of you can figure out how to sing.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: Not like that.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: If I'm gonna make three million dollars, I'm gonna have
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: to not only sing, but I'll also have to sell
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: some photos of my feet. It's gonna be weird. Maybe
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: I can collab with Alex Jones.

• 41:49
  Speaker 1: along with Trey and raj One last little thing to
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: get to here inside the treehouse today before we close
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: up for to day, and that is I went shopping
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: the other day because it was time for a new
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: toilet paper, and I was slightly aghast at the price
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: of toilet paper. I know I'm not the only one.
• 42:07
  Speaker 13: I know.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: This happens to a lot of people. When you go
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: and buy something that you need, you don't like the cost,
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: you don't like the price of it. The good news is,
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: if you, like me, think the price of toilet paper
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: is too damn high, there's something you can do about it.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: You can grow your own. It's true, okay, because one
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: million trees worldwide are cut down each year to make
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: toilet paper, So it has some people thinking is it
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: more sustainable to grow your own toilet paper. There is
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: a town in eastern Kenya. Hey, how about that. That's
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: two Kenya references in one show. That's a new record
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: for us. There is a town in eastern Kenya called Meru.
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: It's a lush leafy There is a lush leafy plant
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: that sways over the landscape. A man, a Maru resident
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: named Benjamin Mtumbe, is growing a plant. I don't know
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: how to say in Latin. Not for food, but to
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: use for toilet paper. I'm going to try it. It
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: is Plectranthus barbatis. It's a leafy plant that can grow
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: up to two meters tall that's six point six feet
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: in English or American terms. The leaves are roughly the
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: size of an industrial toilet paper square and emit a menty,
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: lemony fragrance covered in tiny hairs. The leaves have a
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: soft texture. The plant thrives in warm tropical temperatures and
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: partial sunlight, and it's widely grown across Africa, where it's
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: sometimes used to demarcate property boundaries. He actually says, this
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: man who lives there and grows this plant a lot.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: He says, this has been an African tissue for a
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: long time, and everyone in my household uses the plant.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: I only buy modern toilet rolls when the leaves have
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: all been plucked. This plant has provided him with a
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: cost effective alternative to purchasing toilet pa in Kenya, and
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: like a lot of commodities, the price of toilet paper
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: has risen across Africa and in other places. So there
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: you have it. There is something you can do. You
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: can grow your own toilet paper. If you can get
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: your hands on the plectrentus barbaratus plant, roughly the same
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: size as modern toilet paper, with the tiny hairs and
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: a minty lemony fragrance and a soft texture.
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: Aren't we about due? Time wise? For the three sea seashells.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: Method from Sylvester Stallone's Demolition Man.
• 44:37
  Speaker 13: Uh huh?
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: I think yeah. I think it's well pastime because I
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: mean that seems pretty sustainable to me, because I think
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: you used the three seashells and you just put them
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: back in there, right, I think so?
• 44:51
  Speaker 13: Yeah. I don't think they ever explained how that's used.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: No, that's that's that's the whole gag of the three
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: seashells in the movie is you never find out as
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: the audience member. And I like to point out, Demolition
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: Man is considered to be probably considered to be a
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: bad movie. Yet Trey, you've seen it, Raj, you've seen
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: it too, right, m Okay.
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: Cult classic is different. You know A Roadhouse was considered
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: a bad movie. We've all seen it.
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: I just don't like you guys being all snotty and
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: snobby about looking You're looking down your noses at me
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: just because I've seen more movies than you.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: You're the one who got Snotty Bumblebee one of the
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: bad movies. I haven't seen.
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: The Transformer movies highly a lot better than some of
• 45:39
  Speaker 5: the crap you know. American Ninja five.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, oh, you shut your mouth. I'll put the American
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: Ninja franchise up against the Transformers franchise any god day.
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: That's a terrible idea.
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: I don't even believe that either.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: I just.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Like, somewhere someplace, Michael Dudakov is going, like, no, Michael
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: bays better.
• 46:15
  Speaker 13: You're the only person that knows his name.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: I know, because like most people have like a wall
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: where they've got, you know, pictures of people that they've met,
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: famous people. Uh, Michael Dudakov has a photo of me.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: That's how grateful he is that I keep the American
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: Ninja franchise in the zeitgeist. So anyway, if you think
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: the toilet paper prices are too damn high, you can
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: just grow your own and shut up about it for
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: all things. Treehouse got a treehouse on air dot com.
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: Maybe we should start selling our head shots so we
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: can have some of the people in these movies buy.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Them from us.
• 47:04
