Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go the fifteen minute morning show podcast. We
got a full house today. I've got straight Nate, I've
got Danielle. Hell, we got Garrett. They're scary. What up
up in Jacksonville's very own screen is the one only Froggy?
Here's the one on only Gandhi Scotti, Hi, Raj, there

(00:20):
you go. What a special guest on the podcast today?
So we could do our usual thing and talk about
poop and spit. Yep, we're things we've done to stuffed animals.
We are in things we've done to stuffed animals. Or
we can talk about something maybe motivational and giving something
to give us hope. Oh all right, Na, what do

(00:46):
you want to talk about? Gandhi? Talk about it? Um?
Nate was talking about a checkout where you can choose
to talk to people. I believe it's a grocer store
chain in Denmark, Dutch. That would be the Netherlands. Yeah,
one of those, Yeah, one of those. I always get confused.
But they have a chat checkout. So if you're feeling like,
if you're an older person that's lonely and you just
want to have somebody to talk to you, you can

(01:07):
talk to him while you're a lane, do you talk
to the person that you you know at the checkout?
I'm always of course, because you know we I've been
accused of talking too much, just total strangers. Thanks that.
The thing is they recognize a fact in their community
that older people have more time to spend at the

(01:28):
grocery store and maybe lonely at home. And you know,
they say loneliness is is just devastating for us, unhealthy.
So to be able to stop down in this lane
just for taking your time and having a conversation not
only with the person checking you up, but maybe other
people in line. I think it's a great thing. Yeah,
that's nice unless you're in a hurry. But then you

(01:49):
don't have to choose that lane, right, you can speed
right through it. I was at Victoria's Secret the other
day and the girl who was checking people out was
commenting on every single thing that they were purchasing, which
is awkward because Victoria's Secret anyway, So like, I don't
need somewhere, and Brandon was with me and he was
getting so irritated. When we finally got up to the counter,
she starts commenting on everything. Oh I love this pair,

(02:10):
Oh this is amazing. And he was just staring at her.
She called him Joe from you. I was like, you
are giving me very Joe vibe that. I was like, yeah,
he wants to kill something right now. I'm positive you
can see the steam coming out of his ears. She's
just taking her time. Oh yeah, I mean we were
in that line for like forty minutes in front of us.

(02:30):
You know, it's good to be able to stop down
and have a conversation when everyone in all parties have
the time. Yeah, sometimes not when you're the only cashier
and there's a long line, that's not the time to
comment on everyone's side. I had a cashier one time
because on the belt here picture this. This is what
I had on the belt at shop right. It was
an Elmo mac and cheese meal, bud Light, lime and

(02:53):
D batteries. And the cashier goes, what's tonight all about?
I didn't even think about it until I looked at
everything on the belt. I was like, don't ask. Yeah, guys,
head your stuff on the conveyor belt, and the person
ahead of you looks back and kind of looks at everything.
I feel like they're dirtying my food. Yeah, looking at

(03:14):
it all. Yes, I don't want your eyes looking at judging,
and they're changing the molecular structure with their bags. The
worst is even Target now because there are no bags
at Targets, so it's like after like you're trying to
get it into the bag quickly and hide it and
walk out of the store. Now you're carrying out everything
that you're trying to hide from everybody else judging you with,
so you're walking out. One time, I think you just

(03:36):
keep your eyes off my stuff contentimately had on the
conveyor belt tacos, beans and toilet paper in a row.
The cashier pointed it out. I had no idea that
I did that, but you know, but yeah, they were
secretly judging. I only use self checkout lanes now. I
can't go to a cash laid off though you really
enjoy the Well, you're right, but it's also that the

(04:00):
supermarkets by me have not come back to where you
can just get online anymore. You have to wait and
it's like, okay, register six, and by the time they
call you to register six, the conveyor belt is empty
from the person in front of you because they don't
want people standing next to each other still, and you
have to unload all your stuff, and it's it's it's
I ken, it's annoying to me. I like to have
the conveyor belt loaded before they start checking, you know,

(04:20):
cold and then regular and then produce. That's how I
do it, and you know so, and I want to
bag it like that. You can't do that when they
call you to an empty conveyor. Yeah, but also get out.
Don't you think that self checkout should be only for
small orders? If you have a cart full of things,
self checkout really is not practical. It should also be
for people with a brain. Yeah, well, okay, store. Alex

(04:44):
and I get into fights every time the two of
us go to a self checkout at the same time,
because he's like, you can't move the item from right
to left and then back to right again, because it's
gonna call them over right now. You're gonna you gotta
just put the stuff over here, leave it alone. I'm like, well, no,
I don't. He's like a government. You put it in
the wrong bagging spot, like you know the spot. Please

(05:05):
move the item to the bagging plot. There's not even
a fav and bag to put it in. Why am
I moving? Or if your kid don't. Or if your
kid picks up the package of cookies that was there,
then someone gets called over because they have to log
in and scan and make sure you're not stealing stuff.
How could I a self checkout? Isn't cheaper because you're
doing the job. I don't know you should get a
discount self checkout because you're shocking in full service? Well,

(05:26):
because it's probably a lot of loss there, so they
probably calculate it that way. Yeah, it's probably fair steel
so much stealing? Ship, Danielle, do not? Can we back up?
Gandhi was shopping at Victoria's Secret with Brandon. Were you
doing some sort of shopping for him? It was just like, yeah,
were you? Were? You like, Hey, would I look good

(05:50):
in this? Which Teddy? Would you like me to purchase? Teddy?
You're a man? A man, old man? This is this?
Is this the chemusole? You want to do? Do you
want to buy a Yeah? What year is this? Can

(06:13):
I make love to you? What you were doing? So
it was a semi annual sale and we went right
after Christmas. I actually got these shoes. He bought me these,
and then I was like, oh, let's stop in Victoria's
Secret because great deals in the semi annual sales are
doing there. Yeah it was dollars lady, So yeah, I

(06:34):
mean he'll be picked things out. I was like, which
ones do you like? And he was, you have that,
old man? Did you buy that for him? I would
think the premise of buying really nice stuff is for you.
Sure it's a gift for him too, right, Thanky Man's plain,

(06:57):
we've done got my own Teddies Teddies? I think that
stuff her. I'm sure he's picked up stuff I have,
but I stopped. That was years ago. I don't do
that anymore because I realized that it's I'm not shopping

(07:19):
for me. I'm I'm shop I'm not shopping for because
it appears that I'm shopping for me, even though I'm
shopping for her, because it's really what she's gonna wear
that I'm gonna love. I would rather her do her
own shopping and then I'll just enjoy it and here
rise me. The gay man's perspective is I always think about,
let's say Danielle or Gandhi or Dianna hop in line

(07:40):
Victoria's secret to buy something that you know, kind of
sexy and fine. Whatever I think you're buying it for
you because when you're wearing it is like you put
off this really great energy because it's about you, you
feel it. So happens if he's attracted that, Okay, that's good, yes,
But is that the wrong way to look at what
that's all about? No? I think I give up both ways.
I mean, when I for that stuff, I'm definitely I

(08:01):
always is. The first time he's ever gone with me.
It was just because we were at the mall. Yeah,
I would definitely get what I want. But when you
do have a little pep in your stuff, when you
like the stuff that you're wearing, it would also be
good to know what he's interested in. I don't mind.
I'd like to know that stuff. Why don't guys have
there's Victoria's secret. There's no like Victoria's secret for guys.
Like what are you gonna wear? I don't know, but well, no,

(08:24):
men don't have. I guess there's that, but there's not
many options for guys. It's just what boxers and briefs
and that's it. There did buy me a speedo to war? No? Hell?
Who the hell did that work out? Not? Well? I
isn't good? A side isn't that a good thing. It
makes it, it it makes it everything. I would love to
see you in your speedo. You don't. They don't give

(08:47):
a dance. I don't care. Those guys are just out
there on the beach. There's stomachs hanging over their tiny
speedo with a cigarette. Harry Harry back and hot wife
yeah smoking, hot wife. Well, you know, give them credit
for that. I think they were pretty good out look
ye body positivity, yeah, yeah, we need more of that here.
I'm a fan of a boxer brief. I guess guys

(09:08):
look good in boxes. I love a lot. I remember
when everybody said that, oh no, nit, boxers are not
for guys anymore. The end, it's over. It's got to
be boxer brief or nothing. So I was so traumatized
I changed my entire wardrobe because of what people were saying.
I don't know how you wear boxers. Yeah, it's not comfortable.
I'm wearing everything. I'm wearing flannel boxers from the nineties.

(09:30):
Right now, you're still a boxer guy, but it's a
brand new pair from the nineties. I found what in
the old closet when we're moving out, there's one hundred
boxer from nineteen ninety four Madonna's from Madonna's Pajama Party.
Oh my God, which is so support in those like you?
Your stuff's like on one side and then it's on
the other side on your leg loping around. Yeah, well
maybe they don't have much to support. Almost had to

(09:52):
go to the hospital. I'm wearing box because what slept
in them? And you know, like the scene or did
it cut off your circulation? Yeah? Really got blue ball.
I got epididymitis and my ball was like you strangulated
your nuts back. Yeah, I had to. I had to
put an ice pack on it and lay like upside
down because the blood flow, I thought, I and you

(10:14):
can get testicular torsion, which you'll have to lose the
ball then, which is not Is this when you were
Michael Jacox or no, No, you've bed to take a
couple of days off work. If the case when you
were a stripper, what type of draws were you wearing?
It wasn't draws. Did you wear the tearaway pants with
the you ripped a b office, You had a bunch
of lcro and your underwear drawer and I had tearaway

(10:35):
chaps too, but we had they called it a T bar,
which I guess it's a G string, but it's the
male version of a G strip. There was a string
in your butt, like both cheeks out and clapping. Yeah. Yeah.
Why didn't we have any video to post the footage?
This was before video, like nobody had. Did you have
the underwear with the elephant trunk that thing? No, that's

(10:55):
so late. What do you mean it was before video? Well,
it's before everybody had video on their phone. Right, you
could have had a big Magnavox camp quarter on your shoulders. Sexy,
there's there's definitely picture. I'll have to look up for
look up the pictures. Well you want to see some
tasty photos of you as Michael Jacox. Are you sure
you have a publicity picture bros Emerson camp quarter? Oh

(11:19):
my god? Did you have a publicity picture where you're
like with with suspenders but no shirt on and you
have what what was those stripper guys they always have
the like that was that chip? Yeah? I don't know
what is that about? There was a chip and nail
uniform where the rest of the shirt wanted the shirt shirt. Well,
it's it's sexy. You got the cuffs, the color about

(11:41):
cuffs from a sure, nothing just makes me wonder where
the rest of the shirt is. What's the story? Listen
to those guys with those bodies. If my body looked
like that, I'd never wear a shirt. I would hope
you would. Well, yeah, I think I would have in
that speedo shirt. Clubs for women are kind of laughable.
Oh they're the guys are very aggressive. I had a

(12:03):
friend leave a strip club with bruises. Wait, what are
you talking about, guy, we're guys, strip guys strip for women.
Oh yeah, yeah, it's just like whoa, whoa. I did
not invite that. I've heard that women are very aggressive there,
and they're allowed to be, well, not necessarily, but just
put up. They're not called upon to calm down as
much most Daniel, remember we used to do oh my

(12:23):
god like male strip nights with our listeners. And do
you remember that one time the one striper he was
eating a lollipop and he took it. He put it
in his g string and gave it to someone and
she put it up your cran me yeah, uh no, no.

(12:47):
The times I did it was more promotional to be
bripetally honest. I feel like they didn't enough that. Most
women I know, they would rather go to a regular
strip club with the women are stripping in with with
with their boyfriends, or even on their own. I don't know.
I went to a shirt glub once and the guy
there was like a big rafter and there was a
chain on it. He grabbed the chain. He tried to

(13:07):
pull himself up and do some moves and he fell
fell in our laps with his ass clapping. It was funny.
And then they tried to get up and start dancing again,
and my friend was like, nah, man, just take a seat. Recovery.
He liked a video of that, those little kids doing
the pageant on stage and the lady dressed up as
a fairy falls and falls from the seen. Oh, it's hilarious.

(13:33):
Did that happen on Broadway? And Spider Many every night
he got hurt? Hurt right every night? Almost terrible. All right,
well there is that falling strippers and Spider Man. What
else could we possibly cover. That's it. Let's get out
of here, have a beautiful day by
