- 4:54Speaker 2: I'm looking at the their website and it doesn't say
- 4:57Speaker 2: anything about their their bathroom.
- 4:59Speaker 3: They should high light it.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I don't think they want people just
- 5:02Speaker 1: come in and off the street to use the bathroom.
- 5:04Speaker 3: I think you need to.
- 5:06Speaker 4: Where's the best bathroom down here in Salt Lakes?
- 5:11Speaker 1: Oh? It's it's a Grand America in America. You got
- 5:14Speaker 1: full length doors, top to bottom doors.
- 5:16Speaker 2: That's the one. They won't let me in. I start
- 5:20Speaker 2: to go in and they say no, sorry, start sorry.
- 5:23Speaker 4: Oh there's a picture of that that is nice.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Yeah, they'll let me. They'll let me go into the
- 5:28Speaker 2: Grand America bathroom. If I'm wearing a tie, I have
- 5:33Speaker 2: to wear a tie.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Even if you have shorts and crocs on. As long
- 5:37Speaker 3: as you have a t.
- 5:38Speaker 2: As long as you're wearing a tie, all right, you

- 5:46Speaker 3: know of a bathroom I need to I need to trial.
- 5:50Speaker 3: I'll go check it out.
- 5:51Speaker 2: But I don't know if it might though, if business
- 5:56Speaker 2: send her to the worst bathroom in Salt Lake.
- 5:58Speaker 1: If businesses want to step up their bathroom game, I
- 6:01Speaker 1: can be a consultant.
- 6:02Speaker 4: Too, bathroom consultant on your business card.
- 6:10Speaker 2: It's generally, it seems to me. Generally it's the last
- 6:13Speaker 2: thing that they consider. In restaurants and you know other
- 6:18Speaker 2: places where a bathroom has to be available, it seems
- 6:22Speaker 2: to me it's usually the last thing they consider. And
- 6:25Speaker 2: you know what I hate to see when I go
- 6:27Speaker 2: into a bathroom at a restaurant, or is a plunger,
- 6:31Speaker 2: you know, sitting next to.
- 6:32Speaker 1: The It should be tucked away, so it should be
- 6:35Speaker 1: accessible but not visible.
- 6:37Speaker 3: Yeah, it should be.
- 6:39Speaker 2: I mean you should. You know. It's like we have
- 6:42Speaker 2: to use this all the time, so it's right here, right,
- 6:47Speaker 2: that's what that's the message sends to me. Yeah, we
- 6:51Speaker 2: got to have a handy because boy, boy, things really
- 6:54Speaker 2: get clogged up in here.

- 7:00Speaker 4: Gena a picture of the bathroom at Bird's Teeky Lounge
- 7:06Speaker 4: while it was still standing towards its last days. And
- 7:09Speaker 4: I don't know that would frighten you. I see pictures
- 7:13Speaker 4: of CBGB's bathrooms anything like that. No, oh, reallys at it?
