• 0:12
  Speaker 2: It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Dan O'Malley along with
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Trey Trenholm. All right, look, it just needs to be said,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I find it very interesting that The day after I
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: say how much I dislike the carnival barkers on the
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Midway at the State Fair of Texas, two of the
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Midway booths burned to the ground.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: It wasn't me, is all I'm saying. Had nothing to
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: do with it. I was nowhere near Fair Park yesterday
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: when Sonic the Hedgehog went scorched earth. I didn't do it.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: I'll be curious how that started.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: The early indication is an electrical short around some plushy
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: toys of.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: You know, I mean, now having had a glimpse inside
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: a booth, a food booth, food booth um yeah it
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: doesn't surprise me yeah the electrical there is uh precarious.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Honest to god i'm surprised the state fair of texas
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: doesn't burn to the ground every year or that there
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: isn't a daily grease fire at the state fair because
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: i mean that's a lot of kindling in one area
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: yeah did um And speaking of carnival stuffed toy prizes,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: did you ever see Santa Claus the Movie with Dudley Moore,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: John Lithgow from the 80s? So Dudley Moore, it was
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: like one of the main elves and he has these flying...
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: He wasn't Santa.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: I was going to say, he had to be an elf.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: And he had these candy canes that he had used
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: to make people fly. Similar recipe that he would give
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: the reindeer, that he would give Santa's reindeer to help
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: them fly. And so he gets hooked up with the
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: bad guy in the movie, John Lithgow, who wants to
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: do Christmas 2. He's a toy manufacturer. And his first
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: scene in the film is in front of Congress because
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: of his toys being filled with horrible and unsafe things.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: They open up one of his stuffed toys and they
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: pour it out. It's full of broken glass and sand
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: and nails. And I always think that that's what carnival
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: plush toys are made out of.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: That vaguely sounds familiar.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: It's such a random... even as a little kid watching
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: that movie, I remember watching it and thinking, man, John
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Lithgow is a hell of an actor because he's got
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: a line in there where he's like Christmas too. It's, it's, it's,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: it's really good. I mean, it's a bad eighties Christmas movie,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: but John Lithgow is really fun.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: And you know, it's funny. The first, almost the first
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: anything time I see a fire at a business, my
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: first thought is insurance. But then I thought about it.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I was like, Man, insurance company could probably hand $ 100
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: to the carnival people, and that would cover the damages
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: of the toys. Exactly.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: And speaking of insurance fires, did you see the Dallas
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Gentleman's Club had a nice fire a couple days ago?
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: What I didn't realize until I read the story was
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: that's the same exact location where Caligula burned in the 90s.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: The same building? No. That's what it said in the story.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: That's what it said. It said it was the same
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: address and everything.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I know Caligula DGs I thought was on the other
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: side of a 35. Yeah.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: West Northwest highway.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I thought Caligula was right there. I thought we
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: always remember Caligula being down where the old baby dolls was,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: but maybe I'm wrong. I don't know.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: That's, I never went to Caligula. It burned in 99,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: so I was too young to have experienced that place.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: But I remembered the fire and, of course, talking about
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: how everyone just assumed it was for insurance purposes. And
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: that was kind of my assumption with DG.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I know a lot more about that than I ever
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: really wanted to know. And let me just say this.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: There are people that were involved with that that had
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: to go back home to their country of origin. and
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: stay there for a good 10 to 15 years. And
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I'll leave it at that.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: That's probably a good idea. Anyway, everything's fine at the
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: state fair and I didn't do it. I just want
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: that on the record.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Trey, are you a member of the mile high club?
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: I am not.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Do you want to be? I'm not asking, I'm not
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: propositioning you. I'm just asking in general, not with me,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: just in general.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: You know, I have, in the first class that you
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: have today, where you have like the little nooks and
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: everything else, I can kind of see where you could
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: do the mile high club. I have never, if you're
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: on private, I understand how you can do the mile
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: high club. And just a plain old, you know, seven 37,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: seven 40, where you just have, even in first class,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: you have big seats. I've never understood how anyone, how
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: you could get it on in an airport, an airplane bathroom. No.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: So the mechanics of the mile high club have always
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: vexed me.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: To me, it's one of those things that was invented
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: in early air travel when they might've had more space
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: and more cleanliness and But I tell you right now,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: just the thought of the Mile High Club now in
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: a normal plane, like you said, if I'm flying economy,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: I don't want to get it on in the economy
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: airplane bathroom.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Well, and I'll take that. There is one other scenario
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: that you simply do not see anymore. I mean, back,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: and this is going back in the mid-90s. I was
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: like in college and flying certain places. There were, especially
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Southwest flights that you would fly. They might only have
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: 30 people on them. Yeah. And you don't, you really
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: don't see that anymore because they really, the economics of
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: air travel, they just, they don't do that. So, but yeah, I,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: like I said, it, it, That's one of those things.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: It sounds like a fun, really great, fun idea. Sorry,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: demon dog just broke in. But then in reality, I
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: don't see how you pull it off.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: The Mile High Club expectation versus reality is like a
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: meme come to life. And when I was young, like teenager,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: thinking like, oh yeah, the Mile High Club. But then
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: you start flying. And you're like, oh, this is kind
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: of bad. And then you're right. Air travel has not
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: gotten better throughout the years. It's gotten more cramped, dirtier.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: It's more of a cattle call than it used to be.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: And just the thought of just using an airplane bathroom
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: is bad enough, let alone doing something, quote unquote, intimate
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: in it. Now, like we just flew the other day
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: and- you know, an hour into the flight, I'm going
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: to the bathroom and I kind of wish I had
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: just stayed in my seat and used like a cup
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: or something. Cause the bathroom was already a wreck. By
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: the time I got in there an hour into the flight,
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: someone had already ruined it.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Now, if you, uh, if you ever date a flight
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: attendant and they, especially if they've done international, there's a
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: good chance. They're a member of the mile high club.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: That I believe.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: They have sleeping quarters on those. Reading about the escapades
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: of flight attendants and pilots is always quite interesting.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're right. I think, you know, the crew,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: they're going to know the good spots, especially if it's
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: international and they've got, you know, like a little sleeping quarters.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: The crew seem to, you know, they have an overnighter.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Seems like there's a lot of free-for-alls.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like what happens in Vegas, what happens
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: on the plane stays on the plane.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: The reason I ask you if you would ever even
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: consider doing the Mile High Club is because someone took
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: it to an extreme. An intoxicated woman allegedly pleasured herself
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: on an American Airlines flight. This is one of those
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: times where using the word allegedly is really, it's probably unnecessary.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: If you've got someone saying it and reporting it. it
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: to the airline, you probably really don't even need to
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: say allegedly.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I would guess it's alleged that she actually got pleasure? Maybe.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Maybe. Maybe that's the alleged part. A drunken woman rubbed
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: passengers the wrong way when she took off her pants
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: and began masturbating on a flight from Baltimore to Miami
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: last month. Katie Inzer, 46, said, committed the lewd act
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: shortly after takeoff on American Airlines' evening flight on September 11th.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: That's according to an incident report filed by the Miami-Dade
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Sheriff's Office, which I'm sure even by Miami-Dade Sheriff's deputy standards,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: probably an interesting report to write. Fellow passenger complained of
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: a flight attendant that Inzer had removed her pants and
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: began to actively masturbate while making inappropriate sounds. This is
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: where my brain turns on a dime because when I
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: read someone masturbating and making inappropriate sounds, I'm thinking like
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: elephant noises or monkey noises. To me, if you're making
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: sex noises while masturbating, that's appropriate for the situation. Not
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: for the physical location in which you're doing it. It's
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: just where my brain went. I'd like to think it
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: was something really inappropriate and ridiculous.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Sorry.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: Don't masturbate on plants. And if you're going to do it,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: do it very quietly. And maybe ask for a blanket. Yeah, that's...
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: This one just sounds like she just like... She's like,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: the plane took off and so did she. Pants come
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: off and she just goes to town.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: You know, and therein, it's like... What level of drunk
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: do you have to get where you decide... you've just
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: forgotten where you are and you're just going to drop
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: trowel and rub one out.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: You know what, Trey, as a sober man of over
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: 10 years, you have seen and heard a lot of things.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: I am curious at any of your meetings, has anyone
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: ever said that they were so drunk that they jerked
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: it in front of people on a plane?
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: No, that would be, I have plenty of stories about
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: people getting kicked off of planes, but no.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: So that's one that would get a special chip at AA? Yeah, yeah.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Does AA hand out chips for like, well, we haven't
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: heard that one before, flick? Like share of the day
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: kind of a thing?
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Well, usually it's not a chip. Usually you're then signing
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: the person's probation orders that they attended the meeting.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, a sponsor's duty is never done. Oh, hi, Lily,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: you demon puppy. She kind of looks like Dobie there.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: She does a little bit. Yeah, so look, the Mile
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: High Club is one thing, but joining the Mile High
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Club solo is a whole other situation.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't feel like that counts either.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: No. If you rub one out on a plane, you
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: did not join the Mile High Club. You cannot be
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: your own Eskimo bro.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Especially if you're a chick. You're right. Just get a blanket.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: You can probably pull it off. And except for the
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: person next to you, if they see that, you know,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: you're bright red or something, no one's probably going to know.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: They may just think that you took a really good
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: pill before takeoff. And maybe she did. So that's where
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: the other part of this story comes in. I'm like,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: I don't... There had to have been some other substance
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: at play here because I've seen a lot of drunk
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: people in my day. I have not seen that level
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: of behavior out of an inebriated person.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: If she took ecstasy before she got on the plane,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: that would be quite odd timing, but okay. And then,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately with that story, you, uh, in your mind,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: you would like to think it's a really hot chick.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Then you look at the picture and you're like, it's
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: never the person you want.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: She'd been road hard and put up wet.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: By herself.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: I've really been unkind to myself.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: And she has.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: The last thing I wanted to mention on this story was,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: and this goes back to what I was asking you
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: at the very beginning, Trey, which is, would you join
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: the mile high club or more specifically under what circumstances
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: would you consider joining the mile high club? Because for me,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: private plane, sure. Um, maybe an international flight on Emirates
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: where you've got like a shower and there's like a
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: bed type situation. That's like, uh, the first class is
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: sort of like a tiny, like little capsule thing where
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: you've got privacy.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I, not even it, but like a lot of
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: the first class now where you have your own cubby
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: hole type, you know, your own little, you, you, you're secluded.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: You can actually close it off. No one can see
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: in whatever. Sure. Cramp quarters, maybe, but yeah, you can
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: at least pull it off.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: Uh, but yeah, that's about the only time I can
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: see it because, uh, and, and maybe there was a
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: time in my much younger years where I would want
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: to try something, but, uh, at this point, I, I just,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I think the, uh, and the police car would be
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: too uncomfortable. That's going to outweigh almost everything. Yeah. And
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: having your face plastered all over the news.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: There is that aspect, yeah. The other thing about it
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: is this. We're now at an age, like we missed
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: that window, right? Like if you're going to do it
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: in an airplane bathroom, the ones back in economy are
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: not the bathrooms you want to do it in, especially
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: not at our age. Because you're going to hurt something.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: You may not even make it out of that bathroom.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: You may end up in a position where you're stuck
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: and something has dislodged or herniated or pinched in a
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: way that now you can't move and you're going to
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: need medical assistance to get off and out of the bathroom.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Nothing good is going to come of it. And in
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: addition to this story had me thinking of it, I
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: was watching Mad Men and there's one scene where, I mean,
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: this is the late sixties and this couple's like, Oh,
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: and she says, meet me in the bathroom in 60 seconds.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: You know what?
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: At the time that that show took place in 1969,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: that might've been a decent bathroom to get it on in,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: but not today's bathrooms.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: Well, and, and here's a, here is a truism that
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: just where, and we have seen this in our lives
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: pre nine 11. no one would have thought twice about
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: a couple of people loitering around the bathroom. Right. And
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: you could pull off some hijinks and no one really
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: was going to get that upset about it. Post 9-11,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: it brought in a whole other scenario where, I mean,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: let's be honest, flying has just never been as fun
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: as it was pre-9-11.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: The terrorists won on that front? Um, but yeah, when
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: you see people gathering by the, by the, you know,
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: the bathroom, you start and you wonder, all right, are,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: are you trying to, are you trying to F or
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: are you trying to F the plane? Now a slight
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: segue here.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: We're going to stay with air travel. If I asked
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: you to come pick me up at the airport at 1am,
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: would you?
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: As much as I love you, Dan. Listen, we've talked
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: about this. I have two rules of life where if
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: you're over 30, there are two things you should never
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: ask someone to do. Help you move and pick you
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: up at the airport. Or take you to the airport
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: and pick you up. If they volunteer, on them. But
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: never ask. Never ask. Because over 30, you should be
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: making enough money where you can afford a taxi, an Uber, whatever,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: and movers.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: So, yeah, that's, you know, I would be more inclined
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: to think you're an asshole for asking me to do that.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Well, it's because someone actually genuinely asked a friend to
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: do that recently, and they said, am I the a-hole
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: for not picking my friend up from the airport because
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: his flight landed at 1 a.m.? A friend of mine
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: went out of town for a few days and asked
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: if I could pick him up from the airport when
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: he got back. When he first asked, his flight was
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: supposed to land around 10.30, so I said, sure. Um, uh,
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: I was getting ready for bed that night when he
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: texted me that his flight had been delayed and he
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: probably wouldn't land around until around 1 a.m.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Airport.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: 35 minutes from me. So realistically, I wouldn't have been
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: back home until after two. I told him I'm not
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: coming anymore and that he should just grab an Uber.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: He got annoyed because apparently an Uber was almost 70
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: bucks and said I'd already agreed to pick him up.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: I told him I agreed to 10 30, not the
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: middle of the night. He ended up paying for the
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Uber and has been pretty cold to me since I
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: do feel a little bad because the delay obviously wasn't
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: his fault, but I also had to work in the morning.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: No, that's, I mean, especially if your flights delayed where,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: you know, I, okay. You asked someone again, does it
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: say how old is there? Does it give an age
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: on this? Any of them?
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Um, This does... I do not see an age on this, no.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Again, that's... Okay, one thing, if you said you'd pick
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: them up at 10.30, but if you're... The guy wanting
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: to be picked up is the asshole in this, because
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: if your flight is delayed so much that you're getting
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: in at 1 a.m., be considerate of your friends and
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: their time. You don't want to have them... Because, yeah,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: if they pick you up at... If your flight gets
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: in at 1, that means... you're not, that person isn't
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: getting home till two, probably in bed until two 33 o'clock. Yeah.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: They have to work the next day. Screw you. Yeah.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: The, uh, Tara's dad took us to the airport recently
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: when we were leaving, uh, uh, Detroit area and flying
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: to Seattle. And he, we were like, okay, we got
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: to get a, we got to get an Uber or
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: whatever to the airport. Cause our flight was very early.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: It was at like six something, which meant we had
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: to be at the airport by around four, especially with
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: two pets. So it was going to be an early,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: early wake-up call. Tara's dad was like, I'll take you
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: guys to the airport. And we never asked. We didn't
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: want to. We were hoping he might offer because it's
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: her dad, and he's that way.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: And he did, but we certainly were not expecting it,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: and we definitely were not about to ask because that
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: meant him basically waking up at 2.33 in the morning
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: to come pick us up and then drive to Detroit.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: And then he's got to go back. But he was very,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: very sweet and offered to take us, and we said yes.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, the truth of the matter is, especially if
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: you had animals and you asked, yeah, I probably would
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: say okay. But in general, because I would consider the
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: pets an extenuating circumstance, because not all Ubers want to
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: have pets in them, everything else. But yeah, in general, and.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: I....
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: And again, maybe this is age, but I have gotten
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: to the point if I travel, it's easier than trying
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: to sit there and wait for someone and they are
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: having to drive around and you get frustrated and where
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: are they and everything else that you just grab an
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Uber and you're gone.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah. My ultimate decider in situations like this is would
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: I want to do it? If I I don't want
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: to drive a friend to the airport at two o'clock
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: in the morning or pick them up at one o'clock
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: in the morning. I sure as hell don't want to
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: ask someone else to do it because if I do that,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: then I owe them one and I don't want to
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: have to pay that back. Yeah.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: That's a, that is not a debt you want to have.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: It's like, like I said, moving is, Mm-mm. And airport rides. Yeah.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: I do not want to ever help you move, Trey,
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: which is why I will never ask you to help
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: me move.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: What? And that is, when you're in your 20s, cut
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: you some slack.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: But.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: It's almost expected in your 20s.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. But over 30, you should never ask the... Because...
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: And honestly, it's worth, especially moving, it's worth the money
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: to have someone, you know, you're not watching your friends.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: If you're paying somebody, you can be bad at them
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: if they screw your stuff up.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Do you have a storage unit that you've been holding
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: onto for months, if not years? Do you tell yourself
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: that this will be the month you finally go close
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: it down after that rent payment clears, but it's still
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: there month after month? This is Trey from the Treehouse Show,

• 25:37
  Speaker 2: October 7, 2026. Let's celebrate today with some birthdays. Just saw,
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: I think it was a video yesterday or the day before.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: I can't remember which. Ava Longoria is 41 today, and
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: I just saw a video of her where she was
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: at the Star in Frisco.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, wait.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: Now that's Evan Longoria.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: I was about to say, Ava Longoria is close to 60.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: I know she's over 50.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, never mind. This is baseball's Evan Longoria, not the
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: actress Ava Longoria. Anyway, Evan Longoria is 41, but whatever.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: Ava Longoria looks much better than Evan Longoria, and she
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: recently came out of the Cowboys closet. I had no
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: idea she was a Cowboys fan.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: I think I did know that. But yeah, and I'm sorry,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: she's actually like 51, 52, but she still looks amazing.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: She and Salma Hayek, there's something in that.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: That's all that needs to be said.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I read somewhere where they're going to do a Desperate
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Housewives reboot. Sure.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, they reboot everything these days, so why not?
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: I saw the first preview of the Baywatch reboot. Oh,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: how bad was it? You know, it.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: It was just as cheesy as the original Baywatch. If
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: you saw a promo for the original Baywatch, the difference
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: is that one, I knew who David Hasselhoff was, and
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: at the time, he was really cool. I don't know
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: any of these people.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Which means you're not cool. I don't know if I've recognized,
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: outside of Livy Dunn, who's the LSU gymnast, I don't
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: know if I know any other names attached to the project.
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: But if we're being honest, when you reboot Baywatch, the
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: bar is already really low because Baywatch was not a
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: really good show. It was just a show that came
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: around the right time. It was cheesy. It was sexy.
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: And I mean, it was silly. It was a silly,
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: silly show. So if you reboot it today, it doesn't
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: it's like it doesn't have to like be crazy good
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: and like, oh, I hope they do the original justice.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: If memory serves. I don't know, was Baywatch on broadcast
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: TV or was it always a syndicated show? Because it
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: was as far as I know.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: I think it was always syndicated or maybe it's first
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: year Fox.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: I don't, I think it was always syndicated, but I
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: think so. It was at a time like that was
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: groundbreaking that you had a bunch of, of women in
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: bikinis on TV.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Well, and that's the other thing. They weren't even in bikinis.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: It was one piece. Well, some of the, the peripheral,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: the extras, but yeah, all the lifeguards. Um, but yeah,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: My biggest thing with that is if The Rock couldn't save,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: you know, in a movie form, because per my recollection,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: that flopped. Yeah. If he can't save it, you're probably SOL. Yeah.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. And it had a killer cast. And I watched
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: the movie because I watch lots of bad movies. And
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: it was not good, but it wasn't I mean, it
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: was entertaining-ish.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Isn't that how you would describe Baywatch, the TV show?
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so to me, The Rock nailed it.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: It wasn't terrible.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: And I was also like 12, so it was right
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: in my wheelhouse.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Pam Anderson in a bikini was something that, you know,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: made things tingle.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: Yasmeen Bleeth, Erika Leniak. Yeah, there was some good stuff
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: in there. Mm-hmm. The black cop on the four-wheeler? That
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: was also, by the way, now this is some random
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: ridiculously dumb knowledge. I believe the Mazda Miata, when it
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: made its debut, it had an appearance on Baywatch. So
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: if you remember Mitch Buchanan, played by David Hasselhoff, he
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: had his boss, was an older-ish guy, and I guess
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: he was retiring or whatever, and Mitch was going to
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: get his job, and he was going off into the
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: sunset in a red convertible Miata. That was brand new.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Miata's, when they came out, were cool.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: They were very cool.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: And if you ever want to talk about a little
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: subsect of society, Miata owners now, the It's an interesting group.
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: I've seen a few. We had a good running bit
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: with a pair. RMS back in the day. It is
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: weird whenever I see one driving around. You want to
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: talk about a weird subset of car culture people? There
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: was a guy I worked with. This was back in
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: high school into college.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: How to Batmobile? Two of them at one time.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: That is almost as weird as this guy. I mean,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: that's bad. That's, that's weird. Two of them that no
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: one under why, um, there was a guy I worked with.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: He was a chiropractor. He had an original Pontiac Fiero
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: and he loved that car. It was his maroon baby.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: It was so weird. Those were cool when they came out.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Trey, this was 1999 and he still thought.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: It was cool. No. Those little things would haul ass though.
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: I'm sure his did as well because there was never
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: anyone else in it except for him.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: I thought you could fit.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Anyways, baseball's Evan Longoria, not Hollywood's Ava Longoria is 41.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: The Ashmore twins are 47 today. Aaron and Sean. Aaron
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: was in Smallville, Warehouse 13, and Killjoys, and Sean played
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Iceman in the X-Men movies.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, I know who that is. Yep. Never saw Smallville.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: I never did either, and I don't know if it
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: was any good or not. I mean, I guess people
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: said it had... I'll have to ask Jerry. I think
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: Jerry watched it. I think I think it got mostly
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: good reviews. I know it had John Schneider in it
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: playing Paul.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: I think it was on. I think it had a
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: good four or five season run.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: It may have been on longer than that. It was
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: pretty popular for the WB.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: You know, that's... And I think it's age. Superman for
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: so long was... God, now Reeves. Christopher Reeves.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: And then I actually really enjoyed Zack Snyder's. I think
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Man of Steel was a really, really good movie.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: I went back and rewatched that recently. And I like
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: aspects of it. but it still had a lot of
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Zack Snyder stuff that I've realized now that I am
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: not a fan of. Like at one point Zod is
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: going through this massive exposition thing. It's just like, uh, um,
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: but I mean, I always forget his name, but that
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: actor that played Zod, I thought he was phenomenal. I
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Henry Cavill will probably be the best physical specimen to
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: play Superman ever. I, I.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: I, you know, I just went and, and, I even
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: went and I watched the Justice League director's cut that
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: was like over four hours.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not doing that.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: I watched it and I did not think I would
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: like it, but I did. I think that's a set
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: of movies, as time goes on, we'll look back on
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: more fondly than maybe originally we did.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Maybe. I have not gone back to rewatch the Justice
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: League thing. I liked the first Wonder Woman movie. I
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: kind of liked Ben Affleck's Batman. Ben Affleck's Batman gets
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: the best Batman fight scene in movie history, without a doubt,
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: where he saves Superman's mama in that warehouse.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Holy shit.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: That's probably my favorite scene in a superhero movie is
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: when he just kicks the crap out of everybody. Other
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: birthdays today. I think I scrolled up too far. I
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: think it somehow ended up with someone else, like a
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: birthday from yesterday. So the Ashmore Brothers, we got them.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: John Mellencamp is 75 today.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: The Coog. The Coog.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: Tico Torres from Bon Jovi. He's the drummer. He is 73. God, that's.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: So weird. How old is Bon Jovi now?
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: I think they're all around the same age, but he's,
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: he's let his hair go natural. So he's like kind
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: of silvery white hair, but he still has it all.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: I believe.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: No.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: So Bon Jovi, he's only, he's 64. So he's, but yeah,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: I have seen him and he's all gray now, but he,
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: he makes gray look cool. Cause it's, it is as
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: it's like that. So he is a silver Fox. Yup.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Simon Cowell is 67 today. Lay off the plastic surgery, dude.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: I don't know what she looks like now, but Bobbi
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: Brown is 57. She is the actress model best remembered
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: as the woman in Warrant's Cherry Pie video. One of
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: the original video vixens, my goodness.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, her, Tawny Katane. And I'm going to guess she
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: probably aged about like Tawny Katane.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: I have not looked, and I have no interest in looking.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: That is one of those. I prefer to remember them
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: as they were.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: Which was with a cherry on her finger and right off.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: Even though, because I think that video came out in 1990.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: And I'm pretty sure it's responsible for my early start
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: to puberty. Yeah, I mean, that's... Between her and the
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: girl in Billy Idol's Cradle of Love video.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, gosh. I forgot who that was. She actually was
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: in movies, I believe.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: You're just giving me a reason to go back and
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: watch it.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: Well, it's like, you know, Tawny Katane. I'm sorry, Betsy
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: Lynn George is that girl's name. And I guess she
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: really didn't do anything. For some reason, I thought she
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: was in a movie or something. Yeah, Tawny Katane, you know,
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: do you remember the Whitesnake video where she's writhing around
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: on the front of the car? Oh, yeah. That's one
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: of those where at the time, if you found her
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: writhing around on, I don't care what kind of car
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: you had, you would have been like, F yes.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: I'm sure my dad was having impure thoughts about her
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: on top of that Pontiac station wagon that he drove.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And now you'd be like, hey, you're dead in
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: my f * * * ing car. Get the f
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: * * * off.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: Get off that, you weird homeless thing. This segment of

• 38:50
  Speaker 2: you ever heard of a parallel parking championship?
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: No, I have not.
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of losers. Damn it, I stepped
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: all over you on that one. I hadn't either until recently.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: I saw a video a couple of weeks ago. Portland,
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: Oregon apparently had a parallel parking championship. And I guess
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: the city of Philadelphia had some serious FOMO. So they too...
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: did a parallel parking championship. I guess this makes sense
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: for any cities that have limited parking at whatever parking
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: is available. Parallel is one of the few options. You
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: got to get good at it, right? So someone actually
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: put together a parallel parking championship in Philadelphia. And there
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: is a twist in here that is surprising, but Not shocking.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: So Philadelphia held its first parallel parking championship on Saturday.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: 14 drivers competed in the ability to park in a
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: single attempt in a tight space. And drivers had to
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: navigate Philadelphia's street life. Like a trash fire or a
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: crowd yelling Dallas sucks.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: It's funny when you said that, I was like, I
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: can't imagine such an angry city doing this. And then, okay,
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: now it makes sense. It does.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Like having as part of your parallel parking championship in Philadelphia,
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: being able to focus on parallel parking while an angry
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Philadelphia mob screams, Dallas sucks is part of the competition.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: is so stupid, but also so on brand for Philadelphia.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: I worry about that city's mental health and their obsession
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: with Dallas. It's, it's a little like, I'm thinking a
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: temporary restraining order might be, you know.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: They are like the Longhorns and with the Aggies, I
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: live rent free in their head and will print forever.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just, it's really pathetic.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: Is what it is. It's funny you bring this up
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: because I really wondered this. I was watching the New
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: Orleans-Atlanta game last night. We're recording this on Tuesday. It
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: was the Monday night football game. It was the 20th
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: anniversary of when they reopened the Superdome after Katrina and
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: they had to remodel everything. And it was a big
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: deal for New Orleans. They got trounced last night. But
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: that was a big rivalry. And I seriously wonder this.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Do pro players, they give it lip service, but do
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: you think they really have a lot of hatred for
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: each other in this day and age? Because a lot
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: of times, if you're playing for one team, that's not
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: your first team. You may very well have played for
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: your opponents, do you really hate them or are you
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: just going through the motions of that? I mean, when
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: back in the day before free agency and you played
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: for one team, I understand you, you hated your, you know,
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: there was a hatred really between the Redskins and the,
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: and the Cowboys, the commanders, the commanders of the Cowboys.
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: Well, to be fair at the time, it was the
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: Redskins and the Cowboys. So yeah.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: But yeah, there was, there was a severe dislike amongst
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: all the NFC East opponents. But now it's like, do
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: you really? I know you say you feel it, but
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: do you?
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: They feel it as far as a rivalry within the
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: division because it's a legitimate obstacle that you have to
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: get past, especially in the NFL where you play everyone
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: in your division twice. So, yeah, is there a rivalry there?
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: They're in your way in order for you to get
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: to where you want to be?
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: Is there a genuine hate for that team like there
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: used to be back in the day? Absolutely not. And
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: because you're right, Trey, it's because of free agency, because
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: it is so prevalent now, not just with free agency,
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: but with trades and players getting cut, getting picked up
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: by other teams, because all these coaches now also move
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: around to all these teams and So it's really, really,
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: it's got to be so hard now to feel like
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: genuine animosity towards someone just because they're wearing the jersey
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: of your quote unquote rival.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, like, I think Jason Kelsey played for Philly
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: his whole career.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: And he, they hate the Cowboys, you know, he and
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: his wife. So, and I understand if you, if you
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: manage to do that, because you're going to feed off
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: the fan base and God knows the Philly hates Dallas.
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: Jason's smart.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: His wife is smart. Having played his entire career and won, what,
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: two Super Bowls with the Eagles, there is absolutely no
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: way you're going to hear Jason Kelsey say, even if
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: he believes it, you know, Dallas really isn't that bad.
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: You're not going to say that.
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: No, they're going to say Dallas sucks. But they also
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: know that Dallas is the best thing that's ever happened
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: to Philadelphia. But I always focus on the thing about
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: how sad it is. It's like Philadelphia has won like
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: two Super Bowls in the time and Dallas is 30
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: year drought and they're still obsessed with, with what Dallas
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: is doing. It's like, guys, stop being obsessed with Dallas.
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: Just be really glad that you've got what Dallas can't
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: have right now. Be happy within yourself.
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You, you, if you want to go off the
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: just performance of the last 30 years, you won by
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: leaps and bounds.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: Enjoy it.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Cause you, You've won two, but you played in three,
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: I believe, because I think they lost one to the Chiefs.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: And not to mention the four that they lost with
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: Donovan McNabb. No, I'm not going to lie. As a
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: Dallas fan, that did bring me joy.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: But I will also say that as a Dallas fan,
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: I actually felt bad for Philly fans because that was awful.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: And I also felt bad for Donovan McNabb. I was like,
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: I would have liked to have seen him win at
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: least one of them.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you there. He was such a
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: good player that I wouldn't have mind of seeing him
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: win one. Yep.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: Terrell Owens, on the other hand. That was still a
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: dark day in Cowboys history to me when Jerry signed
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Terrell Owens because I still had not forgiven him for
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: his antics on the star at Texas Stadium that one time.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Wasn't that when he was a 49er, though?
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: There's a perfect example of. Yeah, yeah. Because for me
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: in the 90s with those Cowboys, the 49ers were our
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: big rival. Yep. You knew pretty much every year that
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: NFC championship game was going to be 49ers Cowboys.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: Yep. Having Terrell Owens disrespect the star at Texas Stadium
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: and the way he did was so bad to me
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: as a fan that when Jerry signed him, I was
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: genuinely shocked. And I was, I was like, I can't
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: believe you would do that.
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: And you're right.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Trade that takes us right back to the conversation we're
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: having now, which is, is that rivalry the same between
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: players as it used to be? Clearly it's not. And
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: Jerry helped forge that path one by spearheading free agency
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: in the NFL period. And two, by signing one of
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: the most hated players in the NFL as a Dallas
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: Cowboys fan to the Dallas Cowboys in Terrell Owens.
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, agreed. I mean, yeah, Jerry didn't come up with
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: free agency, but the salary cap certainly made it far
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: more prevalent where guys get traded and switch teams.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: And therefore, they don't have as big of a problem
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: with the guys on the other side of the ball.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think everyone hated T.O.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: Even the guys on his own team.
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: So do you hate the Cowboys? Yeah, but not as
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: much as I hate Terrell Owens in the locker next
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: to me.
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: That does it for us here inside the treehouse today.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: Have a great one. And always remember that Billy's weird
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: obsession with Dallas is weird. Don't ever forget that. We'll
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: see you next time right here inside the treehouse.
