Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Start up, start Up, Brooklyn Boys, start up, Brooklyn buys,
start data. They're making noise data up. Episode one. This
is the Brooklyn Boys podcast. We're happy here. Hello, no Hello,

(00:25):
Jerry has We're getting up there in age. I want
to say, there are a couple of people that have
been tweeting us that are very very far behind. So
I want to shout out to uh, give me a
give me, give me a shot here, Johann mort Zavi.
What about Jahan more to Zavi? So he he tweeted

(00:47):
me yesterday and he said, I'm listening to episode nineteen,
which you know, hello, episode nineteen. I don't even know.
I think it was I don't even know what what
the world was like back then. Anyway, Episode nineteen was
three years ago. Oh, there's so much that has to happen.
And he said the jingles didn't play properly. That was

(01:11):
one of the studio right Well, I didn't know right away.
So he said nineteen the jingles weren't playing? Is that
because they were jingles? You're not allowed to play anymore?
Now that would mean we deleted them and re uploaded
the audio, which we did not. We would never so
I said, chances are there was a glitch in the studio.
I went back and looked at it and it was
the pool store rant. It was fuck you Pelican Pools,

(01:34):
I believe, and uh I was running the board and
we had a problem in that studio where the jingles
weren't playing into the mix. It was all fixed episodes.
The one thing that was the first time we did
that studio. If there was one thing that I do
not miss about the studios is the backup studio, that
dilapidated piece of clap that occasionally, because you know, I

(01:57):
used to be insanely fucking angry every right made me
run the board. You wouldn't touch the touch it because
everything's backwards and everything's weird in there and wired differently.
But you want to hear a story of Hope Brody.
You say that this guy just now is up to
episode nineteen, and how the hell is he gonna catch up?
We'll check this out. We got an email from Trevor

(02:18):
and the subject line is all caught up. You read
my email a few episodes ago and I almost jumped
out of my truck hearing The months leading up to
COVID was crazy. Elvis was gonna be a great year.
That that was a lie. I miss I miss you
guys in the studio with everyone randomly stopping in the
best episode was when everyone in the building came in

(02:41):
keep it up and thanks for the great time so far.
By the way, and here is the actual part of
the email that makes reason why I bring it up.
The first episode I heard was number one sixty three
on the day it was released. And I caught up
this past week. Where four weeks it's four weeks late.
This guy is telling us in this email that it

(03:03):
only took him four and a half weeks to catch
up to right now, that's about that's about forty hours
a week that he's listening. Dude, gives yourself a break
or something. He's listening for about eight hours a day,
five days a week. His brain must have turned to gruel.
I can't listen to this that much, you know. The
gruel is yeah from Oliver Twist. Please I want some more.

(03:28):
It's like mush anyway. But whatever, all right, Well, well cool, well,
glad to have you aboard and caught up. Where do
we go from here? I mean, yeah, how do we
how do we live up to that? Can? I? Um?
I did want to address something that happened today. That
happened today, yep, and uh, I want you to before

(03:49):
I tell you, um what it is. I want everyone
to write down how to spell this word because there's
different ways to spell it, and I'm gonna make it
a hashtag. So you mean to spell it right? B
o U g I E. You got that? B o
U g I E. That word can be spelled b
o u j E. That's right. There's different ways to

(04:11):
spell it, but let's have a consistent way for the
sake of what I'm about to tell you. So I
want to send a shout out. It's it's it's I'm
nailing you on two things here, real real quick, all
right up front, Randy. Michelle Sabo, who's a big Mets
fan and a big fan of the everything that we do,
helps her and show the podcast. She tweeted a picture

(04:33):
looking for some new Opening Day Mets gear and came
across this Mets merch. She said, Oh, Mets, that's way
too boogie for queens. Um and queens, we're talking about
the city that the Mets playing, not Queen's dope, the
borrow that the Mets playing borrow, No, no, as opposed
to queens and kings, like most people me think that. No,

(04:57):
we're talking about queens, queens, New York's it in there.
It's a burrow, right, she said, it's way too boogie
for queens. And what it is it's our old friend
Peter Millar with a zip neck, longsleeve, fancy schmancy quarter
zip jack. How great does that look? Hold on? So

(05:17):
then the Brooklyn Boys podcast responds, ha ha ha, not
for me. It's not I'm in now, she writes back,
because you responded from a podcast tweet Twitter account, which
represents both of us. You wrote I'm in, right. You
shouldn't do that. You should say this is scary, I'm

(05:37):
in or respond back for life. You know there's only
one person on this podcast. It's gonna respond that way
and just assume it was them. Don't need to clarify
she called me on it. Randy writes back, this must
be scary Jones. Course, hold on, and then she wrote
your boogie bastard, So I would like all comments this
week directed to hashtag egg you boogie bass Now listen

(06:02):
to me. This is not the first time I got
called bogie this week. Every time scary says something bougie
about his sound system, his white chair, anything anything he's
got like you, like his Brooklyn and dustrial wardrobe. I
just want you to right back at him and go,
that sounds really nice, you boogie bastard or you know what,
just hashtag boogie bastard. Don't even us you boogie basbot,

(06:24):
bougie motif boogie bastard. That's you. Andy gets credit. But
I can can we talk about today? Can we talk
about happened on our show today? What a cluster? What
a cluster? And I can I came to your rescue, Brodie.
I'm just gonna say this straight up. You and Froggy
and Elvis did take my side, but I don't have

(06:46):
I'm not as upset as you are about the fact
that I got attacked on the radio today. I'm not
as upset I have a feeling. Once you remind me
of it, I may get more upset, but I've got
a hold on you here this Listen. Listen, Kevinly, you
see that what that's me scrolling? Uh my rants document.
I got a lot to be upset about it. But

(07:06):
if you want to upset me about something, I'm not
quite upset about yet, let's bring it, bring it, yes,
talk about what happened today. Brodie wrote a game for
the show, and it was very good. It was fair.
It was a fair game. The clues were fair. Okay,
and then for some reason the contestant didn't. We just
sat there and didn't answer the questions. Okay in the game,

(07:29):
and and and okay, we were Pramida in the Pyramid
Pyramids lashes out at Brody's saying the thing was too hard,
and I'm like, no, no. They both lashed out. I
mean then Gandhie lashed out at me and said it
was things that are small was the clue, and she
said Brodie's brain for writing this game. And sais right,
ses Penis, Yeah, so I guess she's heard this podcast

(07:52):
or she's seen you. Anyway, they both attacked the game
writer because they thought the clues were too hard. In
my defense, I didn't think the clues with that hard.
They were not. They were not hard. They were they
were right in line with playing this game. So people
get frustrated for no reason, they yell get out of
they took it out. Yeah, they blame the writer of

(08:13):
the game, and I came to your defense and I'm like, no,
there's nothing wrong with these clues. And now some would
say some of Gandhi's games, some of the questions are
very hard, but if you're truly a fan, because Nate
screens the calls, you should get them. Sometimes she pulls
up movies from vent that are very hard, but you
can't yell. You can't yell at Gandhi. She's trying to
make the games somewhat because people are not guessing correctly.

(08:36):
You cannot, you know, that's on them. They didn't get
out of better plan to have questions are a little
bit harder, do better next time the questions. One of
the clues in Pyramid was trying to get the contestant,
the person on the phone, to guess words that end
in the leather letter end like man soon Pan Tan

(08:59):
Tan ran right right. Danielle thought that was too hot,
So I got yelled at. And I'm not complaining about Danielle,
who you know, I love, love Danielle. But Skaring came
to my defense, which was shocking, as did Elvis and Froggy,
So I will give you credit for that, but you
guys are more upset at Danielle and Gandhi than I was,

(09:20):
but I appreciate the support. You know, I'll tell you
where I don't. And that's something else happened today. Um,
I did a phone tap and and this woman had
I guess a form of mesophonia because she's like this
all I can't get past all this this crunching. It
involved me eating things eating. It was the classic phone

(09:40):
tap you did years ago where the guy's truck breaks down. Well,
the kid calls his father and says, the truck breaks
down down and I left the back door open, and
then you go and start eating all the potato chips
off the truck. It was a chip truck and the
guys right, and and this woman was like screaming whatever
it was. She was like, I can't stand I'm gonna
run into a true and I'm like, you know what

(10:02):
I said, Maybe you have a form of mesophonia. We've
talked about it on this podcast at Nausea, but we
don't have. We don't have. We never loaded even played
it since we've been in pandemic. We haven't played it
over here anyway. So yeah, so, yeah, so people have
this condition. It's a real thing, and it is the
It is actually the grating noise of chewing that actually

(10:24):
physically makes you angry. So you may have that Google
and you know what she writes back. I don't have
a case of that. I have a case of I
know a bad phone tap when I hear it, which
is pretty shitty. So I went into her text history
and I noticed that she had a husband and three kids.
And I said, oh, I said, no, you did not.
How would you like it if I insulted? And I

(10:47):
said that to one of your three kids? You'd be
pretty piste, right, I mean, you're a mom, you're supposed
to be role model. What are you doing texting a
radio station? And just I said, phone taps are hard
to get. For first of all, they're very difficult. Let's
put that out there. We've talked about this two out
of every ten making on the air, So fucking fucking

(11:07):
what do you want me to do? Okay? That was
the that was when we had. That's when we ran.
And you know, if you think you could do better,
try one, Try your hand at one. You'll see how
difficult they are. But anyway, I just found that interesting
that a mom of three is texting a radio station
and ripping on the hosts because she didn't like the podcast,
or she didn't like the phone tip whatever. I find it.

(11:30):
Why do people go out of their way in a day?
I don't know enough. That was like a scary rant.
I like that. Yeah, well I'm hoping that you give
a rant. And that's another thing people are accusing me.
I'm gonna let me rant about this. Yeah I'm not.
And you know what, I'm not saying. They're wrong. You
got you got a couple of people. A couple of people, No,

(11:51):
I think I have them here. Listen, Brodie, Let's let
me be honest about this podcast. This podcast. The both
of us have equal contributions. We could say whatever we want.
We can to do whatever we want. Yes, until you
stifle me. Just don't stifle you. No, No, am I
a lot allowed to say that. I'm sorry, Sorry you, Dick.

(12:13):
I think we should start with the rant today. Go
for it. Well, I gotta I gotta mini complaint. That's
I'm gonna start off with. I'm gonna work my way up.
I walked into Dick's Sporting Goods with my buddy and
they have a sneaker that says David on it a
new balanced sneaker. It's the David model. So I'm thinking, Dad,

(12:36):
I gotta get that. It was a whole table and
the display was and I know that a lot of
athletes eat this on case you like, I don't get
the connection. A lot of athletes eat David's sunflower Seeds,
right right, So this is the David's Sunflower Seeds branded
new balanced sneaker. How great is that? So it says

(12:58):
David on the heel. So the colors of David's Sunflowers
are all thank you. The colors are blue, red, and yellow. Okay,
what color would you think the sneaker would be? If
they have to choose from blue, yellow, red, and white

(13:18):
like the bags of something that that's their theme. That's
the that's their motif. By the way, that's their motif. Yes, blue, red, yellow,
and white. The speaker should be I guess white and blue,
white and red. What am I picking a couple of
colors here? So? Yeah, well I would have liked blue. Blue,
blue would have been great. White. So they gave me
and I'll probably post this on Instagram by the time

(13:39):
you see you hear this, well, maybe in a day
or two. They're white with red souls. Red around the ankle,
blue tips of the toes, blue heel in and a
yellow and red end. They look like fucking Ronald McDonald shoes.
So I really want to get them us. My name's

(14:00):
on it. But they look like Ronald McDonald's shoes. So
I called my friend Jeff over. I go, hey, Jeff,
what do you think any sneakers? He goes, they're great
if you're Ronald McDonald. Sometimes you are a clown. David,
you know what. There's a difference between a clown and
a comedian. Billy Crystal explain this? Did I have explained
this on this on the he said, people people would
say to him, are you so funny? I think I did,

(14:22):
But here it is again. People would say to him, oh,
you're so funny. You must be the class clion. Must
be the class clown. He's not the class comedian. People said,
what's the difference. Here's the difference. I think, I m
I may know this. I'm just gonna remind everybody just
in case. If you heard it once, you heard it twice. Now.
The class clown is the guy at the big football
game who runs across the field naked. Clown right right.

(14:44):
The class comedian is the guy who talked him into
it and told him it would be funny. There you
go that And meanwhile, he's the guy who made the funny.
The other guy is the clown. Correct, I'm the comedian,
like Greg t on our show was the clown. I
would come up with ideas for him that he would
go and stick his in the toilet. Correct, That was
how was his that was what he was good at.
My I'm the idea was I was coming up with

(15:06):
funny idea. So he did the execution. He was like
he was the show clown and that's not an offense
to him. I feel like people laugh laugh at the clown,
like almost make fun of almost like left, I don't
feel like you don't yet right, the comedity you left with, Right,
that's how that's my goal. That's my goal. So that's it.

(15:26):
I also wanted to just I don't know if this
is I don't do grammar police hits. I'll leave that alone.
I got a scamboni for you. But okay, oh you
have a scamboni. You can hit scamboni because I have
a follow up for my last week scamboni, so I'll
pile that scamboni in let's dog pile the Scamboni hit
the scamboni then. And I have to credit Froggy with

(15:49):
this on our Big Show for for for telling me
about this, because I had no clue. He's an avid golfer.
If you're a golf person, check this out. Did you
know that when you are going to buy your golf
clubs and you're at a store, you almost always make
the shot. And it's like, oh my god, because it sells.
It sells the club right there, it sells the set.

(16:11):
Like I you know, when you're doing when you're on
the put, you know, here's the camponi. A lot of
stores do this. They're not gonna like this, but I'm
about this. No. They angle the fucking green on a
downward slant in the direction so you actually make the shot.

(16:31):
It's an absolute truth. So when you then when you
go out and you take those same clubs and you
go out into the you know, onto the into the
real world with them, you never make your shot. You
want to break it over your knee. But truth be told,
a lot of places, when you're going to shop for
golf clubs, why don't you bring with you a level?

(16:52):
You know? The thing with the little the bubble in
it with the water. Yeah, something, don't know what the
level is. They're not handy Google a level let tells you.
You know what, though your phone is a level, the
phone has an app Now your your phone is at
least he has. He has the problem with that theory scary.
If the building is not straight, the level is not
gonna matter. Right, But we're but it Usually these are

(17:13):
on elevated surfaces, so they control And well I'm saying
is if the building is crooked, then if even if
it's level, it's gonna appear not level. It's it's not
You're not gonna get a true reading. What I'm saying
is you're gonna you're gonna see ship is angled towards
look at it. Just put the ball down. See if
it rolls on its own. No I know. But but
the point is, sometimes because of the friction and the

(17:36):
actual turf the fake turf, it will actually stay still
when you place it on the tee. But just or
wherever you're gonna put it. But just know that it's
an optical illusion and there's a very good chance you're
gonna make your shot, which is gonna be that's what's
gonna sell sell the clubs like, I gotta get this.
Look at this, I'm making the shots, and then don't

(17:57):
they also have to angle the sides so that it
into the whole correct. Absolutely, it's an all around. It
increases your odds a little bit. It's not a guarantee.
It's not guarantee. If you're a bad golfer, you can
you know you're gonna hit the wall. You know. I'm
just saying that they go through drastic measures at these
golf at these stores. If you're buying golf clubs. Now,

(18:18):
I'm not in the market for this, so I have
no skin in the game. I'm just letting you know.
It's a scamboni. That's a pin. You didn't realize the
skins game is a is a type of golf tournament.
There you go, There you go. Little something that follow
up to my scamboni sort of from last week. I
returned the eighteen dollar blue shirt to Target and when
they scanned it, it said it's sixteen. I go contrail,

(18:43):
the tank says eighteen. Here's my receipt. It says eighteen. Oh,
we must have dropped the price. They go. That's not
my fault. I bought another one for sixteen. That's a
different that's a different shirt because I returned to sixteen
and eighteen and said, oh and so when she scanned them,
it came up sixteen, six and eighteen. So I got
my eighteen dollars back for the shirt that I told

(19:04):
you last week, the two shirts with exactly the same shirt,
one at a sixteen dollar tag, one on eighteen dollar tags.
I got it back. You got it back. Are you
watching March madness? Um? I'm not. I'm not paying attention
this season. I'm not either. I know that my bat
and brackets already busted. I already had, ohio is because everybody,
all the good teams got a lot of them got upset.
And then what is it? The Big ten, the ten East,

(19:25):
the Big whatever, the East one is the Big ten?
Whatever the funk they are? What do you call those guys? Okay,
there's there's the Pack, They're they're all, They're all, There's
there's the Big East, whatever the hell, whatever the hell.
It's like Rutgers, I know, but like they'll go in
that way. They don't go into the tournament in their

(19:46):
old divisions. But a lot of those teams are rolled out. Oh,
there's no local teams left except for no Syracuse got
eliminated for New York anyway. Okay, so my point was,
and this is sort of a grammar police, I don't
need the jingle on this one. But it's a guy
is on sports radio here in New York and another
guy from another host called in or was on the
air with him, and he was saying, Oh, your team lost.

(20:09):
You must really be licking your chops over this one.
And he said, yeah, it's a tough loss. He goes,
it's a big upset, man, you must be licking your chops.
Who here's the problem. He meant, licking your wounds. Licking
your chops is when you see food you want to
eat chops. Your means yeah, you're injured. You're injured, right

(20:30):
your teams are out. He must have said it four times. Man,
I can only imagine how you're licking your licking your
your chops. Man, I would be licking my chops at
my team lost. I'm like, are you going to eat them?
I've tried to lick my chops. You have a previous
podcast you have you'll hear that story if you're new
to that. If you're new to us. By the way,

(20:51):
it's welcome, welcome aboard, and we always have to welcome
new people through the door. But we also want to
tell you to go back to the beginning to episode
zero and follow us on the journey and see how
we got here today. Right, don't be one of these.
I'll listen to the new one and then the old
one into it, because you're not gonna get the references. Look,
we want you to listen to the new one, of course,
but be like the other guy that's scary talked about,
who like took four weeks he caught up understand find

(21:13):
out why somebody tweeted us a picture of Dill in
a store. Oh that's yeah, that's that's a good See
what I did? There was and we got an email
on that. I'm gonna write the email real quick, and
then I'm gonna tell you about I'm gonna I'm gonna
give it up. I'm gonna leave up to you. I
can talk about what happened at the post office or
what happened to target as the first rant of the

(21:34):
day is, I've got a few today. It's rant mania today.
I think it's gonna be rat mania. So God read
the email, I'm gonna give an option. Yes, well it's
a very simple one. First, this is the first time
emailer from the Reaper and said, uh, my actual name
is har Has, so if you see this email, you

(21:55):
could see my name on the say my name on
the podcast. This is surprising, but this is my first
time emailing you guys, never emailed you before, but finally
trying it today. Brodie, you're gonna get a kick out
of this. I saw it Dill at a superstore, thought
of Brody and started laughing to myself. Anyway, just saying,
even though I started the podcast in September, it made
my quarantine much more survivable. I love you guys, have

(22:17):
a great day. Wow, they're already up to the Dill episode,
which means since September. Wow, he's gaining ground almost as
quickly as that other guy. So there you go. Yeah,
but yeah, but Brodie hates Dill. By the way, if
you haven't had a chance to check out our our
new merchandise at the at our website, scary. What's the
website again, Brooklyn Boys dot Big Cartel dot com. Yes,

(22:38):
that's Brooklyn Boys dot Big Cartel dot Com. One of
the new shirts is our hashtag shirt what has which has?
I would say almost all of the slogans and the
catchphrases and one of the hashtags. My shirts arrived today.
All the shirts I ordered to arrive today. Uh, and
so one of them says hashtag effing Dill. That made
my day. They really did that that we've come to

(23:01):
that point in our careers. Well, we have a shirting
Dill and fart water and f you Abe seventies all
the good. By the way, I love I love that
that college looking F you Ape seventies seven hat because
it looks like a college. Yes, it's kind of, it's
kind of in disguise. Gary Jones Production. I really like
that one as well. Yeah, because because it's his F

(23:22):
you and like college letters are like, oh oh, it's
at first glance, somebody wearing it, like, yeah, it's a university,
Florida Universe whatever it is for them. But an Ape
seventy seven, which is like unsuspecting. But if you know,
you know, if you don't, it's not a curse. It's fine.
I think I think it's cool to we're out in public. Okay,
So yeah, anyway, check out the merch we got a

(23:44):
lot of new stuff. I like that red Pepperoni shirt,
the pizza shirt, Pepperoni pizza. So two and two of
the people in my family here in the house ordered sweatshirts.
I got two Pepperoni sweatshirts arrived today for them. I'll
give them today to them later. That was the popular
one here in the house. And then I got all
the I got. You know, I'm a sucker. I bought
two of each for myself. I got two of every pattern.

(24:04):
I got the Swell style bottle, which I learned today
not dishwasher safe. They don't want you because it's inside
that says don't not dish washing. Wash my hand, So
I washed it my hand. Uh. Did I mention I
lost my credit card last week? Did I talked about that? No? Okay.

(24:26):
So I was at Target doing a return, probably like
a day or two after our last episode, and I
didn't have a receipt, and so they say, we'll put
your credit card in and we'll see if it's on
your receipt. So I only have two credit cards that
I used for purchases, right, a green one on a
blue one. So I put the blue one in first. Nope,

(24:46):
not on that one. I put the green one in.
She says, yep, it's on there. Fantastic, Okay. A couple
of days later, I see I can't find my blue
credit card. I can't find it, haven't made any purchases.
The last place I saw it was putting it in
the machine to see if my receipt was there. But

(25:06):
when I left Target, I made a purchase. I used
the green one, so I know it. It used the
blue one, and I don't know what I did with
it gone. I searched the car. It's gone, So I'd
rather than cancel it immediately. I said, you know, let
me call Target to see if they have my card.
Maybe I dropped it and somebody returned it. So I

(25:27):
called the store and it says, oh, for electronics, press
one for customer service, Press two for babies and toddlers,
Press three, And it got to like, you know, human resources.
Press five went to every department, So I get two
for customer service, and it rings a hundred times. Well

(25:47):
before I traveled twenty minutes to Target, I want to
speak to somebody because they're gonna tell me we don't
have it. Why should I drive there? So the whole
day I'm running around. I'm going to the post office,
which is my other complaint today, and I'm ringing, ringing, ringing.
So finally I'm like, you know what, no one, no
one the customer services answering. I'm gonna hit one for electronics.
Nobody answers. I hit four for food service. Nobody answers.

(26:07):
I had five hr nobody answers. I hit six four.
Whatever the department was, pharmacy maybe. I tried every department
except actually calling the Starbucks. Nobody answered. Hundreds of rings,
hundreds of ree dials, nothing. So I go to Target. Oh,
I don't know, Friday maybe, So whatever day it was,

(26:30):
it wasn't that busy. And I walk over to the
customer service desk and there's four girls standing off to
the side by the doorway to the back room, and
they're huddling, and I hear them. They're all talking about
their schedules. Well, you can take my day and I'll
take yours. I can't believe they change the schedule. Didn't
tell us well I can't work that, and they're they're

(26:51):
like having a gap. I don't want to interrupt. I
think it's gonna last a couple of seconds. And someone's
gonna notice me because in a circle, someone is facing me. Right.
The redheaded girl turns her head sees me at the register. Now,
I'm about five feet from the register because I like
to wait until they call me over. She sees me
and goes back to talking about her schedule. I still

(27:14):
don't say anything. I'm like, you know what, this is
important to them. I'm gonna give them a break, right,
everyone's working hard. It's fine. So finally the redheaded girl
comes over to the desk. She says, Hi, can I
help you? I said, yeah, I gotta. I have a question.
I think I lost my credit card. But I've been
trying to call all day you just so I know.
Do you guys not answer the phone because of COVID?

(27:36):
Are you short staffed? I don't want to waste my
time next time. I'm not upset, but are you guys
not answering the phones for that reason? With that, Tanya
is one of the other girls with the scheduling. Because
you got her target name tag on. She says, uh,

(27:58):
the girl didn't come in today, so now I want
to explain to her because I think she means the
customer service department girl who answers the phone. So I say, well,
you don't understand. I called uh seventy five times I
spoke to I pushed one for electronics, I pushed two,
I tried four for you know, five human restor. I

(28:19):
called everything, and she's she's just the girl. Din come
in today. I go, you're not listening to me. I
understand the girl and come in. But I called all
the departments and no one's answering the phone. So I
want to know if you guys in general just aren't
answering the phone. She throws her hands in the air
and starts walking in the back and goes, I can't
get a word in edgewise with this. Now okay, and

(28:44):
now she goes around the wall. You're escalating the situation.
Well I didn't. You gotta be careful that you don't
go viral, my friend. I mean, you really you really
want to raise people. Hold on, I'm telling you the
story as I told it. She raised voice. I know,
I know, but so don't jump ahead. I just don't
know where you're going with this, because I know how

(29:05):
you get into customer service. Right. No, No, this sounds
like it's a woman doesn't end woman me I don't.
First of all, I don't yell at people normally on
the phone. I do telephone tough guy over and I
don't yell. I'm forceful. So I said, excuse you think
I said, excuse me, I heard you. If you're gonna

(29:27):
talk about me, you should go in the back and
complain about you. Didn't. Nope, I didn't. I said I
heard you. I didn't say bitch. I said I heard you.
I said, you really shouldn't talk about me. I'm right here.
I wasn't being rude to you, I said I it
wasn't being rude to you. I was trying to explain that.

(29:48):
So I don't at this point, I don't know the
fact that here's what ultimately happened. There's one person who
answers the phone. If the other departments don't pick up,
they all go to her, and she called out, But
she didn't explain that. She said the girl called out.
So I was just trying to find out for future
reference if during COVID because a lot of companies aren't

(30:08):
answering the phones. So she goes around the wall. I
had that problem to continue. Okay, she goes around the
wall and it's a it's a wall that has the
middle of the wall missing so that they can hand
things through the wall. So I still see how they
had gone. That guy wouldn't shut up. Oh my god,
so I so I go, I can still hear you. Okay.

(30:30):
So the redheaded girl says, I'm sorry, sir, that I'm
really sorry about that, and she tries to find my
credit card. You can't find the credit card. Okay, she says,
you know what, let me get my manager. Let's see
if the manager can maybe because they have a safe
in the office, maybe they have it. So she takes
me over to the manager. Um, very nice woman. Did
you go on with Did you go in with your
Karen wig by the way when you did this? And

(30:51):
what scary? At no point was I Karen. I wasn't
yelling at anybody. I know. They got flippant with you,
and I said I could still I know. But here's
the thing. At some point, you bite your fucking tongue. Okay,
you don't say you don't say that she's scary if
you went into a customer service location and the person

(31:12):
was bitching about you. But I wouldn't get to that
point because I wouldn't I would defuse the situation minutes
before it got to that. Really, what point was I
fused at the very beginning she didn't understand what you
were trying to say and ask I would have been like,
thank you, and I would walk the way I would
not if I would not have tried to explain her

(31:32):
or teach her a lesson on the spot. This is
where you get yourself tangled into trouble every time. Okay,
first of all, I was talking to the redheaded girl.
I wasn't talking to her understood, so I wasn't trying
to teach her anything. I wanted an answer so I
would know as a customer for next time. Hey, if
you guys are COVID right now and your short staffed, hey,
no problem. I wasn't upset it in answer the phone.

(31:54):
I just wanted to know if that's the new thing.
And how would she know, because she would be she's
the one who answers the phone. She's like, no, we
don't answer the phones right now. Plays know that not
answering the phones anyway. The point was she brought me
over to the manager. The manager said, let me go
check my office. She comes as just you know, so
I'm terribly sorry. I checked the office. We have a protocol.

(32:14):
It goes to here goes to here goes in an envelope.
We're going a safe and we don't have it. I'm
terribly sorry. But if you give me your phone number,
I'll call you if it turns up. If you can
take an email. Couldn't have been nicer. I said, why,
I said, you are you're You're fantastic, You're what an
amazing manager? You are? You genuinely concerned for me and
my credit card. I really appreciate that. And she said, well, um,

(32:35):
I just worried for you. Sometimes done, I'm not done more,
she says, I hope. Uh well, you know what, I
pride myself in customer service, So thank you for mentioning that.
I hope everybody here treats you at the same level
of customer service. So I said, well, you know that person,
did you? Did? You said? Did you? I said, if

(32:55):
you're customer service, I just about you to know that
the four girls ignored me because they were arguing over
someone changed their schedule. She was, oh, yeah, I changed
the schedule. Okay, then you know what I'm talking about. You, Yes,
I did. And then I said I said, and I
really had a question about the phone system because nobody

(33:18):
answered the phone. She's, oh, yeah, the girl called out
today and she's the other All the departments get transferred
to her. If they don't ring on like three or
four rings, they go to her and she's not here.
And I'm terribly sorry. I said, Well, yeah, I I
called all the morning, you know whatever. It's just I
said about my real problem is the girl. I tell
her what the girl said. Now she threw her hands
up and side kicking a She's oh my god, I
can't believe that she's normally very nice, I said, you

(33:38):
know what, she might be having a bad day. It's fine,
everybody was really nice after the red headed girl. Wonderful,
I said, But the girl at the headband, you know,
maybe he's a little on edge today because someone changed
their schedule. Whatever the case, I just wanted you to
know that scary. You know, I used to work in retail.
Of course, as a manager, I'd want to know that.
She says, you know what, sorry, I really I really
appreciate that, I said, because if she is having a

(34:01):
bad day, we need to give her a few minutes
of a break and let her relax, and she's usually
very good. I said, mental health day. I'm sure she's
I'm sure she's a good person. Should sir, you know what.
I appreciate so much you coming over to me, and
I feel terrible about her. She said, I would like
to give you a fifteen dollar Target gift card. I
said that's not necessary. She said, absolutely it is. You

(34:23):
come with me right now the Redstrom and to give
you a fifteen gift card because I feel like you
didn't get the experience you deserve. I've seen you in
here before. I know you're in here a lot. And
so I got a nice fifteen dollar gift card for
just passing along information. I never got upset. I have
to get upset, So shout out to uh the manager
in my store. She is wonderful. Now, okay, so let

(34:45):
me ask you this, but fuck you, Tanya. Of course
that'll be on the next shirt we come out with.
Listen to me, just listen here. Okay, this is this
is what I know. I'm saying. You're a very smart man.
You're very like you. You know, you're very intelligent. Okay,
why do you why do you why do you play
in the mud and the bushes. Like, what I'm saying is,

(35:07):
if if I knew that I had an issue with
credit cards and something of a higher level, I would
go directly to where the managers are and not even
tangle with people and get into it or spar or
even like I wouldn't see this is the POINTED have
known that the customer service desk where they often keep

(35:28):
lost items, we're going to pick a fight with me.
I knew that I should have known. I just I
just a girl who wasn't working. You said you approached
four girls that were hanged were standing around. No, I
did not approach them. They were behind the counter. I
waited into one of them acknowledged me, and I didn't
say a word about it. I didn't say, oh, so
those four girls were behind the customer service desk. Yes, yes,

(35:50):
they were standing off to the side of the customer
service desk. So the very second, the very minute that
I wouldn't have heard what I wanted a response, I
wouldn't have. I wouldn't have tried to teach a life's
lesson or say I know, yeah, I hear you talking
about me, I would say, I would immediately, I would
just turn around you full of shit. If you were
in a pizza place and the guy was like that
fucking asshole over there, what a jerk off? You would

(36:12):
stand there? You would, you would absolutely go. But it wouldn't. Hey, man,
I can hear you. You would you and there's nobody listening.
Who I just think you have You have a grading
way of escalating a situation, and I would didn't and
I didn't if I didn't. What was the first word
you said to her? Hi? After that, I said, I

(36:33):
have a question. Um, I've been calling all day. Are
you guys not answering the phone because of the pandemic?
Did I say you fucking lazy? No? Stop? See right there,
the way you phrased it, would it be like, you know,
they don't need to know the history. You just want
to You just present them with the problem right then
and there. Why do you have to preface? Right? But

(36:53):
you're you're coming in to deal with the person that
the issue in person? Now, you don't need to preface
that tell a story about how you couldn't get through
and seventy five times, because all that does is I
didn't tell him I called seventy five times. I said,
I tried every department. So I just want to know
you guys, not because of COVID. I gave him an excuse.
That's the rational question. You you. I think you gotta

(37:16):
I think you gotta walk on eggshells a little bit.
And you know what, the second you don't hear the
response you want, you walk away. The next person that's rude,
like okay, say say no, I'll handle this, and I'll
handle this in my own way. All right, thank you
for your assistance and walk and move on. I don't
know but that I guess that's me. I'm constantly trying
to defuse situations and you're trying to set me now

(37:40):
in me, you're poking the bear. Fuck you man, boogie bastard.
Don't call me a boogie bastard. We haven't taken a
break yet. Well, because we got had so much going on.
I did so much talking about we can't take a break.
You want to take a break now? Yeah, Well, because
you talked about your vaccine all. You know what, if

(38:01):
I was vaccine and felt safe in the world, maybe
I would have been a little calmer. How about that?
How about that hit the jingle hit the spots go
to commercial podcast and Brodie. I mean, come on, fulman
over here, feel free, fea. I just listen. I just
don't believe you. I don't think anyone listening believes you

(38:21):
about what that. I wouldn't say anything. You would have like, oh, okay,
I wouldn't about me. I want you about me and
walk away, Okay, all right, I just wouldn't. I wouldn't.
I don't. I just walk away from issues. I don't.
I don't. I try and solve them in my own way.
I'm like, you know what, I can outsmart you. I
don't need to grovel and you know, and throw rocks

(38:42):
and stones and what I'm saying. I'm just saying, you know, please, uh,
I don't. I don't know what to say. Um, I
will say this, yes, yes, yes, yes, you you mentioned
the vaccine um while we're on the phone. Did you

(39:04):
see what Krispy Creame is doing. This is not a commercial,
by the way. Yeah, I'm a fan of Duncan Donuts.
That's me. I'm the Duncan. Okay, I don't eat donuts,
so it's okay. But but how ridiculous is it that
they're giving away a free donut each day? All you
gotta do is show your vaccine card, so show you
that you've been vaccinated, and you get a free donut

(39:25):
every day? Isn't every day for the rest of the year?
Is that? What this something like that? So so you're
trying to promote health, but you're promoting diabetes. Okay, you
don't get diabetes. Yeah, but they're promoting poor health. Like
I feel like, what what are they trying to do?
They're trying to coerce? Like I understand that the intent,

(39:46):
initial intent is there there. Obviously it's a marketing ploy
for them to get earned media, as we call it
in the business, where people are going to talk about
them for free, which by the way, we're doing right
now right now, and other and new sources have done
all day today. But I just find it so bizarre
that a donut shop is giving away free day. You imagine, though, Q.

(40:08):
You imagine the guy who says, yeah, you know, I'm
not even sure about this pandemic thing, and I don't
trust the vaccine, but it's afraid donuts, And what the hell?
Like if this is what puts you over the top
to get a vaccine, the free donut, and there's a problem.
How many days are left in the year, count the days,
and now count the donuts and that you're in sugar

(40:29):
that you're gonna put your system. Know, listen, I'm not
the bastion of hell of good health here, but but
come on, it's about you're incentivising people for the wrong
reason and then you're gonna wind up with other health issues.
And by the way, the whole point, eat enough doughnuts,
you'll be obese and then you'll qualify for the next vaccine. Like,
all I'm saying is is we're here trying to build
our immunity, our immune health. We're trying to build that up.

(40:52):
I think eating a donut a day like that is excessive,
and all that does is does the opposite. It breaks
your your immune system down and it puts you into
poor health. Don't you think I'm just saying I find
it's item to eat, and I would I would like
to think you're not going for the free doughnut every day.
I feel like they should, Like they can't mock your

(41:13):
card to say you had your your free one. There's
really no way to like take Oh my god, you
can go into every you can. As soon as they
change the shift, you can go back or you go
to the next If Taco Bell did that, I might
be guilty of going for a burrito every day. I
might or every other day. Or White Castle. Oh oh,
that reminds me at a problem with White Castle. How
would you have handled this? Scary? Because you're you know,

(41:35):
you're the level headed one of the two of us.
Everyone knows that I went to White Castle to the
drive through. If you're not familiar with White Castle, it's
a it's a burger place. They sliders, they serve, they
serve mini sliders. And again, I believe they were the
first place to call them sliders, because at least they
might growing up. We all call them sliders before they

(41:56):
were sliders because you ate them and they slid right
out your ass. Right, that's where the name came from. Right,
it's actually that is actually a false. We that's why
we called it sliders. Right. We didn't know there was
any other reason for it. We called them sliders because
they Why why do you think they call them sliders?
There was a real reason. Want to look it up.
I do that while I'm while I'm talking. So I

(42:17):
go with a list of stuff my whole family wants.
White Castle and I'm getting eighteen burgers eight. Yeah, we're
little burgers, and there's a lot of people. That's the suitcase. No,
that's the grave case. It's twenty four getting twelve halapeno burgers.
And then I think I got four American cheese burgers

(42:40):
and whatever it was, it was maybe it was as twelve, two, three, four, twelve, Yeah,
there was the twelve twenty four. It was total whatever
it was, right, And so I get to the drive
through and she gives me two bags. They're clear plastic bags,

(43:04):
so you can see the little boxes of burgers in
the bag. And I said, is this everything? Now? You
don't want to be that guy who doesn't trust them,
like you know, who stands over the cashier goes that's
on sale right, that's on sale right. And I said,
that's everything right. So she says, yep, that's everything. I said, okay, now, scary.
I could have said I don't believe you, but I said,

(43:26):
you know what, No, I'm gonna trust her. I'm gonna
just take the bags and drive over to a pocket
space and double check. But I'm not gonna question her
because she said yes, She looked at the screen and
said yes. I looked at the bags. Everything's there but
the twelve Hallapena burger. Of course. So I walk again
in my car and I walk over to him. Two window.

(43:48):
Oh my god, dude, there's a black cloud with thunderbolts
and lightning facing you bulletproof glass. She's not by the window.
I can't get her attention. It's it's drizzling by the way.
So I'm getting wet, and the woman in the car
that's waiting for food sees me. She rolls down the winner.
She goes, what's wrong. I said, they forgot twelve of

(44:09):
my burgers. She goes, oh, hell no, and she starts
blowing the horn for me to get The woman's in DOWND.
So the woman comes back. Now I could have said
I told you, but I didn't because I'm nice. And
I said, remember me, I'm the black car right there.
I pulled over. I remember we talked about the right.
I said, you're missing twelve. Half my orders missing. There's

(44:32):
no twelve. They apologize. Did she say I'm not dealing
with this and walk away from you like you got no? No? No,
Candice said, I'm terribly sorry, and she went over to
the counter where they make the burgers and my bags
and burgers were there, and she hand him to me
and said, I'm so sorry, I'm glad you came back.

(44:52):
Have a great day. That is customer service, even though
she fucked up and didn't count. Listen, I gotta be honest.
Though you work white Castle, you should know what burgers
looks like versus twelve. Now listen you well, that's exactly
and you're dealing with it every every minute of every day,
so we should have an idea. You're off by two burgers.
And I could have said, you know, now, look, if

(45:15):
I had gone home and my wife and kids didn't
get to Hallapenia Burgers, I would have been upset, of course,
and you would have you would have said that you
would have seen. That's the difference in this situation versus
the last situation, because in this situation you could have
could have elevated it by saying, oh, you know, you
could have eyeballeded and noticed that they were twelve missing.
I mean, how do you miss it? The thing is,

(45:35):
but you did something similar in the last situation that
started the argument going on a slope and a and
a highway to help. Nope, this girl was cutting me
off when I was talking to the Redhead, and I
wouldn't have had to have driven there all the way
twenty minutes if they just answered the phone. So I
just wanted to know. Okay, So White Castle, you messed

(45:57):
up day. You go whatever, White Hastle, I got my
you know what. I didn't ask for anything. I didn't
why anything. I just want to Here's why they call
them sliders, okay, because it's a long grill, right, it's
a griddle, and they're called that way because it's they
slide across the grittle before the toppings are added to
make way for the new patty. So they start on
the left, they go to the right, they slide across

(46:18):
the grill, and then they put the bun on them
with the onions, and then they go to your plate.
All right. So that's the other that's the other reason.
I don't believe that, because every burger, every place you
cook burger, sometimes they move. They don't slide across the
griddle because because it's just to get and they take
the spatula and they put it underneath it with the
onions and everything. Oh my god, I'm getting so hungry
right now. Speaking of speaking of the the the the

(46:43):
history of words. Remember that dumb girl. She was today
years old, and I said all the stuff she said
was fake. Okay, so somebody, um it came up in
my feet again on TikTok the video. So I'm like,
you know what, let's see what the latest is with
this person. So the top comment was another young girl

(47:05):
who said, I have one for you guys. Did you
know they call a mall a mall because when you
go to the see the stores, you go to them
all uh wow. She said, you just move the m over.

(47:26):
But that's just because people were always saying I'm gonna
go to the mall because I'm gonna right, And I'm like,
that's not all. At this point, I think everybody's making jokes. No, no,
you can't be leaving their own ship. All the comments
mind blown. I'm today years old and they put the
little emoji with the mind blown. They're like, what's the

(47:48):
other one. I'm stuttering, No, no, I'm stuttered. I'm shook.
They're all shook, shook. We got a couple of text
messages today. Elvis said something and people are texting and
oh my god, I'm shook. I'm shook. Is your life
that orring that just learning something destroy makes you makes
you shook, mind blown. Did you know that three is
the square to nine? Oh my god? Oh you know what?

(48:10):
You know what? It reminds me of Remember that the
Christen Wig character when she couldn't keep a surprise yes,
and he said, oh my god, he's gonna come in.
He's gonna so excited, Oh my god, and I had
to calm her down. That's how I picture these. I'm
assuming they're thirteen year olds on TikTok or people like
they're just they're so they're like I learned something like
I guess a year not being in school is so

(48:32):
dramatic that they're shook, mind blown or there today years old.
I shook. I learned a little life hack last weekend,
but I learned it the hard way. I told you that,
did I tell you on this podcast? I burned my hand?
No you did not? Oh my god? At first? Do
you use for hi? O? Man? So you know I was,

(48:53):
I was cooking brunch reform. Uh, my girlfriend and I
or my girlfriend and me. That's that one. That one.
I'll go with the girlfriend and me because it ends
the sentence. You see what I did there, remind me
to do what I did to you on the on
the podcast and the day, I gotta bring that up.
So check this out. So, so I wanted to make
this dish that she saw on the Food Network, Jeffries

(49:14):
a carrying your favorite person. Well, by the way, as
I was cooking, I was telling you, you're Jeffreys. Jeffreys
are carrying from the from the Food Network was actually
Brownie's ex boss at Starbucks. The whole thing, right, that's
old old Navy. That's a whole other story. Yeah. So
I was telling her the story and we were cooking,
and I took I said, you know what this call?
I was trying to make a hash brown right for

(49:36):
from my up get it smoked salmon and dial yep,
the deal and the crime Fresh. We were making a
smoked salmon type hash brown, right. But I'm like, I
want to go a little healthy, so I'm gonna use
instead of using the russet potatoes, I want to use
sweet potatoes. Okay, great, so you put them in the
in the pan stovetop. Did someone tell you that sweet

(49:56):
potatoes were healthier than russet potatoes? Well they are, that's
a fact. But yeah, that's very true. There's more health
benefits to sweet potatoes. Anything. Isn't a sweet potato really
a tubor? I think a sweepotato is not actually a potato, right,
you're right. I think you're right. Well, it's it's not that.
That's why it didn't cook properly because I decided to
take a fucking shortcut and tried to change up the recipe.

(50:18):
I should listen to gee Z Jeffreys and carrying, But
so I'm cooking with it, and and then then the
pan is on the geez wheezy baby, so the pans
on the fucking stove, and I'm like, you know, and
I'm like, okay, now I gotta flip this thing. And
it's supposed to brown on one side, flip it. It's
not really turning brown, brody. It's starting to burn, but

(50:39):
it's not it's not getting firm like a potato pancake.
Would you know what a potato laca looks like? When
it's because I'm a juice, We had a giant one, right,
a giant potato, like an eight inch potato laca, And
I'm like fuck, So it suggests, oh, why don't you
put it in the broiler under the under you under
the broiler in the oven. So I put it in
the broiler under the oven, and it's sitting there degrees

(51:01):
five fifteen minutes go by. Finally take a pot holder,
and I pulled a frying pan out of the oven,
right and I put it on the stove and I
and I said, all right, I think we're ready, and
I walk away out from the refrigerator. I do something.
I come back and I touched the fucking handle of
the frying pan that was just in the oven for

(51:23):
the past fifteen minutes. Oh no, degree burns. Like what
the fuck? I'm like going nuts. Ran down to Dwayne
Read by the way, where I ran into a similar
situation of you three girls standing around right where the
fucking burn victim unit ship was like the aloe and stuff,
and I'm like, could you get out of my fucking

(51:45):
way by my fans on fire? Like they were like
they like zero helped to me in the Dwayne Read.
It was a Sunday morning, by the way, so what
do you expect right Sunday morning? Help? But they're two
girls were like sitting there chatting about whatever. I think
they were arguing over the schedule like you this common theme.
But um, there is right exactly where the alo was,
And I had to push him out of the way
like I I, and they couldn't find what I was

(52:06):
looking for. I had to go to a lady behind
the pharmacy desk and sheet told me where it was.
I bought the stuff, I put it on. This stuff
is saved the day. It wasn't actually for your It
was like something I don't even know what the help
was called, but it had aloe in it. It was amazing.
But several listeners said, in the future, if you have
a potholder and you have you take something out of
the oven or you're dealing with it, rather than take

(52:29):
the pot holder off, just so you don't forget that
it's a scalding hot handle, take your hand out of
the potholder and leave the potholder on the fucking pan.
So this way it will be a visual reminder that
will you'll always you understand, like it'll always we'll put
it down the counter right next to it. Either one.
The thing is, when I see frying pan on stove,

(52:51):
my brain doesn't process it that it's scalding hot, even
though it came out of the oven seconds ago. It
will next time, it will next time. But no, but
leave the potholder on the handle. So if these girls
hadn't moved out of your way, would you have been like,
I'm so sorry. Maybe you didn't hear me. My hands burning?
Can I get to the alo please? Would you have said, hey,

(53:13):
excuse me, God's scary. To be honest, I would have
said I. I would have I would you know what? Yeah,
you would have. By the way, do you know the
history of Dwayne Read how it got its name? Well,
by the way, it was on the originally on between
Dwayne Street and Read Street. Yes, in Manhattan, broad on

(53:36):
Broadway on BroadWare. That is the original location. That is correct.
And they've gotten gobbled up by a lot of Walgreens
so it's now Walgreens. But true story. Um, I just yeah,
So anyway, there's that. Uh, did you want to read
some email or do you want to talk about I mean,
you've got more rants? So why don't we go there? Well,
I'm gonna go all right, we're not you tell me.

(53:58):
I'm gonna tell you. I had a very very setting,
a triple layer, very upsetting that so far has not
resolved itself, and I feel like until I speak to
a vice president, I shouldn't tell you what's going on.
But I also want to save it for next week
or what what is it? Something that's gonna affect the outcome?
And because I had something that that is also not

(54:18):
for now in this for next week too. Because I can't,
I can't really talk about it. How about it? How
about not not a rant necessarily, but let me tell
you three funny stories that happened at Home Depot. If
I could do that, I'm gonna i'mnna string them all
together and then you see how you would you would
handle these situations. Is that does that work? Of course?
Of course? So first of all, new rule, if you

(54:39):
don't work at Home Depot, you are not allowed to
wear orange. Is that a fair rule? I mean, it's
a little much to ask, but I can see say, okay,
it's it's permitted. During the Halloween season. I'm in Home
Depot and there's a guy in the aisleand in the
in the in the in the plumbing section, which is

(55:02):
one all over from the tools section where I need
a tool, but there's nobody there. So I go, excuse me,
excuse me, excuse me, sir. Now there's somebody's staying next
to him, so I feel like he So I walk
up and I'm like waiting. I'm standing there and they're talking,
so I'm not I don't want to eavesdrop, so I'm
staying there. And finally the guy turns and he goes,
can I help you? So I go, yeah, I'm looking

(55:22):
for something to cut a door knob because I don't
work here. They go we orange, right, like? So he
had an orange that he was wearing an arm like
an orange shirt like, and so I know they wear
the vest apron. I mean, if he was wearing an
orange apron, then that would have been a dead ringer.
Then I'm like, you know what, Dick, leave the apron.

(55:43):
You know what it was? Um, he had his coat
on and you could see the orange with his coat open.
Because some of the guys go in and out outdoors indoors,
right this guy, I thought it was like an indoor
outdoor guy. So I was saw the orange. So I
there's nobody else on the floor but him. So okay,
so that's my rule, don't wear orange. Dump depot all right.
So I meet this guy. I had never met him

(56:04):
before he's at the home depot, I'm gonna go. I'm
there all the time, and I tell him I'm having
a problem at the door knob. Did I take about
the doorknob problem my head? My wife wanted me to
change the doorknob on the on the mastery bat. So
I had so finally none of the pins work, nothing worked.
I had to get something that saw the thing off.
So I took to this guy, Mike, and he says,
you need a DRUMML drum. That was a drumbell that's

(56:27):
beyond me, screw driver's power drills, you know, I try
to hacks all. So I had been there the day
before and the guys like, what you need is a
hacks all and here and he gave me hacks all
blades that cut through metal, Like whatever the great before?
Did you talk about mining? And I know I talked
to you about it. May maybe he's on here and
I get a hack all. The hacks all it didn't work.

(56:49):
So the drama is a thing that vibrates back and
forth with a sharp edge to it, and he goes
back and forth right, so he says, oh you know what,
he says, I got one for you there they're fifty
nine dollars. You know it's sixty dollars. But he said,
I said, well, jeez, you know what the heck saw
and the blades was like thirty, So you know, if

(57:09):
a sixty given him. I gotta get this damn door
knob off. It's hanging off. I gotta get it off.
So he takes me over. He shows me the drummels whatever,
and he says, uh, here you go, this one's it's
it's one of the better ones we have. Uh, you know,
it'll do the job. Talks me through. It couldn't have
been a nicer guy. He says, I'll walk you over
to the register. We were bullshit about whatever else and uh.

(57:30):
He tells me a couple of stories. He got in
trouble a couple of times or customers. So he tells
me the story about this woman and uh, she brings
a bag of knobs like dresser knobs, and it was
during the pandemic where everyone was put things in bags.
They didn't want you to touch anything. So he says
to our do you mind if I touched your knobs?

(57:50):
And she got very mad at him, and he had
to explain himself that he meant the knobs in the bag,
and he telling me the story about how things people
take things the wrong way. So anyway, he said, you know,
she just want to speak to a manager like his
whole thing blew up. And he's like, you're really nice.
I appreciate you know. We had a great time talking whatever.

(58:11):
So we go to the register and the go I
go to self checkout and it comes up. Um so
I said, hey, Mike, it's no let's go back to
the aisle. Oh, back back to the aisland. He looks
and he goes, son of a bit, somebody moved stuff
around and the sign wasn't in front of the sign.

(58:33):
I said, well, Mike, if you weren't such a nice guy,
I would point out that, you know, technically have to
honor it. But you know what it's worth ninety nine dollars.
I gotta I gotta have it, like I could have
held him to it, but I thought, I'm gonna be nice.
He's a great guy. Told me that the knobs story, right.
She says, uh, yeah, yes, I'm sorry about that. Yeah.
I feel terrible. So I go to ring it up
nine nine dollars and he calls the cashier. The woman

(58:54):
who's overseeing this self checkout, and he says, hey, Pam,
give him twenty five off. So now it was so
she says, So she says, she sees the price, she
just oh my god, it's a hundred dollars. I mean

(59:16):
it's a penny difference. Like so, so he goes dollars. So, yeah,
dollars is good, dollars is fine, right is the only
time that the only times and when it's a hundred
dollars right, So I got it. So I got it
for seventy five for you. But you know what, kudos
to him again, Mike at Home Depot could not have

(59:38):
been a nicer guy. Um, I just want to say
it was. That was a good customer services shout out.
So they have a system where, uh, you bring a
paint chip and they can match the paint. Right, like
if you have an old paint on your wall, you
chip off a little bit and you bring it to them.
So they didn't break down the molecular structure of that

(59:59):
and down scans the paint. It scans it right now.
I don't know if you know anything about paint, but
you can get paint and flat eggshell semi gloss high gloss.
When I had to paint this apartment. Well, I had
someone painted for me. Don't don't be funny. Uh that
that was back when I sat the other one. Right,

(01:00:20):
that's what I knew about paint eggshell. Right, So I
I bring that. I bring the chip to the woman
and she says, she looks at it. Just is this
um sat in the egg shell? I said, I don't know.
It's from a room in my house we painted twenty
years ago. She says, I said, you're the expert. I said,

(01:00:40):
I was kind of hoping you'd be able to tell him.
So sorry, I don't know what it is. Just well,
you can't tell you don't know. She's looking at it.
Just look at it. I go, I'm sorry, but you're
the paint woman. You look at it like I don't.
I don't know what it is. I painted twenty years ago.
She says, we'll go back home and look at the
paint can. I said, if I had the paint can,

(01:01:01):
I would have brought the paint can instead of a
chip off my wall. Just well, could you bring a
bigger piece? Then, I said, you want me to know?
This thing was already like the size of a half
like a quarter. I said, you're gonna chip my wall,
Like I don't, I said, I don't understand. She just well,
I can't help you. I need to know if it's
sat in the eggshell. I said, she wouldn't. She wouldn't

(01:01:23):
help me. So I so, okay, So I go and
I I said, you know what, screw it. There's another
home depot ten minutes away. I go to the other
home depot and I called my wife and I say,
is it do you know if it's eggshell or satin?
Because if I remember correctly, we did everything in eggshell
back then, so go with egg shell. Okay, go with eggshell.

(01:01:43):
I go to the second home depot, and they have
you can when you buy paint. Scary it's either a
pint or a court no, a quart or a gallon, right,
the little can. But the little can is not like
a third of the price. It's like half the price.
Half price. Of course, well that's with anything in this way,
like I gotta fuck it demon the gallon right, So
it's not like it's half the price. They don't let

(01:02:04):
you get away with that that cheaply usually, but home
depot has these little plastic containers or well, Lows hasn't
been plastic and Home Deeper with have little cans. They're
like test or size. They're like a paint, right, little right,
So I said, can I get a Can I get

(01:02:25):
this color? He checks it, He goes yep, because it
looks like eggshell and me so he knew what it was.
I said, well, can I get a pint size? Because
I just want to touch up like where I made
some nail holes. So he says, oh, Now, keep in
mind I one thing I left out. I'd already been
to three of the stores that didn't have the sample
size of eggshell. Okay, I left that part out. I

(01:02:47):
went to three other home depots that didn't have the
sample size of eggshell. So he was the fourth one
I'm looking for for the eggshell. So he says, oh,
I'm sorry, the sample size only comes in satin. Really,
why is that? He's oh, we just continued the smallest size.
Now keep in mind, scary. The other three home depots
never mentioned to me was discontinued. They just told me
they was sold out at the moment. Okay, So I said,

(01:03:08):
because you have to buy a court. I gotta buy
a court. I just want a little, like to touch
up some nail holes. I got buy a court, said
how much is the court? Now? What they do is
when you buy the court is they take white paint right,
and then they had color to it. So I said, well,
how much is it? He says it's ten. It's anywhere

(01:03:30):
from ten to twenty five dollars. So I said, well,
give me the cheapest you have. So he says to me,
so like fifteen eighteen dollars in the middle medium quality.
I said, give me give me the give me the
cheapest you have us like like thirteen, like like sub
medium grade. I said. I said, listen, guy, let me

(01:03:51):
explain this to you. I want you to find the
cheapest watered down ship that you don't want to sell
to me. Whatever that is, whatever has been discontinued, that's
in the back room on the shelf that says do
not sell, doesn't meet our quality standards. That's the one
I want. Whatever that price. What did he say? He so,
he laughed, He goes, so you want the cheap ship, Yes,

(01:04:13):
I want liquid crap in a can. Get that for me.
So he mixed it from he was ten dollars, there
you go. But it was the funniest like he was
trying to do right, He was trying to upsell you. Well,
that's what they do. You want the eighteen dollar one? No, no,
you said ten to five. I want the ten he figured, like,
no one's gonna say ten. He he hasn't met David

(01:04:34):
Brody yet, scary he knows something. Yes, would you what
you want? What pain? Would you want? Boogie bastard? Which one?
So I have? Okay? No I have I have. I
have special paint here at my house. This paint was,

(01:04:55):
this paint was mixed. I was. I got it at
bid the King of England. No, no nine team ten No, No,
this is um. I think they're called the Aura paint Aura, Aura, Aura,
and they're made by uh, what's the name of that.
In other words, it's like you can buy the ten
dollar one Aura. No, No, the Aura paint is from?

(01:05:20):
Where is it? Benjamin Moore? Benjamin Moreran Benjamin which is
the got it so long? Benjamin Moore is one of
the Benjamin Moore, Sherwin Sherwin Williams. No, Benjamin Moore. So
what happens is Aura is Benjamin Moore? Aura? Until I mean,
let me see what it says here. Here's what I
read to you the description. No, it is right. So
the reason is Laura Interior with our exclusive color lock technology.

(01:05:44):
That is correct. Now. Color lock means color on delivers
the ultimate performance, brilliant, damn stretch and everlasting color. That's
the key, Brody everlasting. So I got paint cans at
a twelve years old down there and the Molecta the
structure because they made the paint on the spot right
back Thenard, come on, if I have some touch ups

(01:06:06):
to do, most people would take that paint, can't that's
twelve years old. They would stick a brush in it
and they would start swiping the wall with it and
it would be this colored sor a line of paint.
It would blend right in like it was brand new.
So let top dollar at the time, because I am
not penny wise and pound foolish. Let me ask you
a question. When you when you have to paint something,

(01:06:27):
hold on and you whip out those Aura paint cans
from twelve years ago. Does does the guy who works
in the basement of your building who does the painting,
does he appreciate the Aora paint? Yes? He goes does this?
Does does phil in the basement, come up and go, hey,
Mr Jones, there, it's some great paint. You when you pay,

(01:06:48):
when you pay higher quality for a higher grade paint, man,
that's a paint man. You're living. You're living the high life.
This is the Rolls Royce of paint. Dude. This was
my first apartment. Okay, this is the first thing that
I've owned, and I wanted it to be special when
I moved in, and I've sprang for the for the
for the more expensive paints. The result on the back

(01:07:08):
end of that, I don't deal with the bullshit that
you do on a Saturday morning, going from the eggshellows
and customer service issues that give me headaches. I go
down to the basement by the regular Aura or the
Aura Grand Entrance, which which brings rich, vivid color and
exceptional durability. This is like a sex novel the way

(01:07:30):
they describe these paints. By the way you're if you
got I want to lock, I want the slices to
google the swatches for or a paint. I swear to
you the Aora paint swatch. You're gonna see colors like
you never had before. Fuck Bear, paint Bear. This is
the greatest the greatest paint. You've never seen paint like this.

(01:07:52):
I'm telling you right now, Brodie or a paint is
next level ship. It's where it's don't get on my
ship and guess what next time I need to touch up?
I can see one right now. Oh you see, you
don't e touch up where the microphone boom fell off?
The fucking stand kidding you. This area of my wall
needs to be touched up next week. You just have
any money left for your three d seventy five million

(01:08:14):
dollars sounds is okay? When you spend ten grand I'm
gonna Randy Randy Sabo hash tag boozy bastard. I'm gonna
go back into my basement. I'm gonna whip out that
twelve year old canapaign. I'm gonna mix it up a
little bit in the twelve year old Scotch, and then
i'm gonna take the brush and I'm gonna watch it
dissolved right into the wall. It's not gonna be discolored.
It's not gonna be any of that. You know why,

(01:08:34):
because at the time I decided to spend a little
bit more for it. That's why. Okay, so you can
make fun all you want, Brodie, but I'm telling you alright,
great now, listen, I go fund yourself, you know. And
by the way, regarding vaccinations, okay, I feel like having
the V card right now is like having the blue
check mark on Instagram. It's like being verified in life.

(01:08:55):
I just got mine. You just gotta a very fun
on Instagram. Which congratulations, Brodie. That does it mean I
come up sooner in like comments on pages like yes,
if people do a search, your name comes up before
if they misspell it, it will come up to the top.
It's actually a very cool thing to have. But did
you see what did you see what American Airlines Arena

(01:09:15):
is doing now in Florida? Yes? Do you see? This
is gonna be what's going on? This is the future,
and this is why this is what incentivized me to
get the shot. Check this out. They're reserving the lower
two levels for people with proof of vaccines. So if
you're fully vaccinated, you get the V section. You're gonna

(01:09:36):
see that idea copied more and more at stadiums and arenas,
and you watch what's gonna happen around this country where
everyone's gonna take these ideas and they'll they'll have a
right to do it because they're privately owned right, So
you get to do you get to make your own
rules and privately owned property. So as soon as that
ship happens. This is like the V I P Card
in life. It's like having like, oh, oh look at that.

(01:09:58):
Oh you know what? This is the the funk off
my shoulder life, Get the funk off my Shoulder card?
Thank you see this, I get to I get to
walk through. This is like I'm telling you right now.
You don't you don't think so, but this is going
to become an issue. So I'm letting you know that.
You can laugh all you want like you did earlier. Yeah,

(01:10:22):
you look at the article. I don't know. No, I heard.
I heard it report on the OVI Star morning show
this morning, so I'm aware of the story. It is
a it is a true thing. And do you agree
that this is gonna be happening more? Or what I mean?
I would like to think by may or June people
are gonna be vaccinated. I'd like to think No, I'm
talking about companies and places and being restricted. What if

(01:10:43):
I want to go visit Italy and Italy's government decides no,
that's not where you want to know. But hypothetically speaking,
I want to go to another country, and that country
country's government says, um, by the way, unless you're fully vaccinated,
you can't come here. Do you think I want to
be denied entry? No? So now I got the card.

(01:11:03):
I feel like the card is like life again. I
don't want to get to science on you. But getting
vaccinated doesn't make you non contagious. I know that. But
but that aside, Italy may not want you come in
there because you can still bring the virus. I know,
but no, but what I'm saying is bring the virus.
You're not understanding what I'm saying. You just you just

(01:11:25):
want to continue to I'm letting you know that, Yes,
I understand what you're saying. For that reason is why
I'm in that. For that reason, and I know, I
know it's a terrible reason. I want to want to
get that vaccinated so I can get better seas in
a basketball game. You know you say that now until
you can't see the fucking Mets front row. I'm telling
you right now it's going to happen that you have

(01:11:46):
to be vaccinated to go to the Met game. You
have to be the already announced it. There you go. So,
but that's not why I'm getting vaccinated. I want to live.
That's really I think choice number one, I would like
to not die. I'm doing it to get people off
my And then right below that the met game. It's close.
I like your priorities. I want to be able to

(01:12:06):
go to brunch, get better sheets in a concert. I
want to look at Italy. It's the blue checkmark of life.
It's like it's like a bad sounds like that blue
verified Anyway, all right, I'm gonna give you two examples
of David Brody getting yelled at. Would you like the
like the I'm gonna give you the short one and
a long one because I was. I wasn't wrong. I

(01:12:27):
wasn't wrong either one. I'm gonna I'm gonna give you
the home I'm gonna give you the home decorese store.
How I got yelled at, Go ahead, and now you
tell me how you would have handled it, because I
I did get back. But okay, So I'm I'm at
a Florid Decor. It's a it's a big store. They
sell flooring and decor, like tiles for your tub, your

(01:12:48):
bathy shower or whatever, Florida. So they've got the registers
are set up where they're like, um, the little islands.
There's no countertop. They just register in a plexiglass and
there's no place to put your stuff down. You hand
them the stuff, they wring it to hand it back
to you, right, and then each each little island of
registers is back to back like gas pumps. You know,

(01:13:10):
the gas pump as you pull on either side, so
the gas. So the the registers are like register one
to register three four, register five six like that. So
register one two is open and register three four is open. Okay,
there's a line from register one to all the way

(01:13:31):
to the back of the like the bag of store
one to check. There's a line from register three four
all the way in the back. Okay. Now I'm on
the one two line. I wait my turn. I've got
a couple of returns to do. I bought some tile.
It didn't match. I'm bringing it back. I picked up
some samples we didn't like the way they looked. So

(01:13:54):
I get on the line, the one to line, and
I notice, okay, I noted us that on the three
four line, the three four people are either going to
the next three four register, or they're going to the
two register because between my line and their line is

(01:14:14):
a floor display like a little island of tile right
that separates line one two at line three four, the
line three four people think that they can go to
the next open register now they have access to the
second like register two. That you can't stand on line
for register two because this island of tile right which

(01:14:36):
is closer to me. And so they have a wider perth,
a wider a space that they can either go to
three four or two, but we can only go to
one unless we make an angle and go to two.
Does that make sense right? I notice our line is
moving slower. Why because the other line is going to

(01:14:56):
three four and registered two. Okay, So I am third
in line. I see a guy from line three four
go to register two. The woman in front of me,
I say, do you want to go to register two? No,
I'm gonna go to register one. So I go and
walk over to register two because if we're splitting, I'm next.

(01:15:20):
Does that make sense that? So far, so good? Okay?
So the guy who is second in line on register one,
he's waiting to be wrung up, so he's like ready
to go. He turns around and says, asshole, there's a
fucking line to you to me, so I don't think
he's talking to me. So I'm ignoring him because I

(01:15:41):
don't know he's talking to me. He goes, you, asshole
with the blue mask on, there's a fucking line behind you.
So he thinks I just walked up. So nobody is
mad at me because I've now realized we've got two
registers to choose from. He says, this woman was ahead

(01:16:02):
of you. So I said, would you tell him I
didn't cut you. She says, he didn't cut me. No,
he went behind you and jumped on the line. Sir,
you didn't do that. I said, I waited on the line. Bullshit,
you waited on the line. I said, Look, sir, I
don't want to get into a fight. I said, first
of all, your next I didn't cut you. I didn't

(01:16:22):
cut her, And these people will tell you. I was
on the line. We have a choice of both registers.
The other line was feeding three registers and we were
feeding one register. I got I didn't cut the line.
I'm a good person. I didn't do that. I don't
do that. I said that. I like I don't know
why are you're yelling at me. I don't want to

(01:16:42):
hit me, right, So he's like, yeah, fucking bullshit. So
I don't say anything right. So then he goes, you
better not say anything, and again I'm like, it's like, lady,
would you tell him I didn't cut the line because
I think he's gonna wait for me at this point,
and I'm standing there with a couple of towels in
my hand, going this funk thinks I cut the line
right now. At this point, his mask isn't covering his nose.

(01:17:06):
I wanted to say, you should be more concerned with
your nose than me cutting the line. I don't say anything.
He didn't say anything. So he gets to the cash
sheer he's like, the fucking guy, he fucking cut the line.
So she's looking at me like I cut the line.
I didn't cut the line. So I'm like, I didn't
cut the line. So the now the manager is over
by the door because he's checking receipts. He's looking at

(01:17:26):
me like I cut the line. I didn't cut the line,
and cut I didn't cut. No cut. It was like
the Jerry Seinfeld episode. The set. He was like, no,
pick no pig. I didn't put my nose. I'm like, no, cut,
I didn't cut. And the guys look at me like
like like he wants to kill me because I'm lying
about cutting the line and no one on the line
wants no. I was gonna say, no, one's gonna vouch
for you because this guy is so loud, he's crazy.

(01:17:49):
I'm looking back, so I look back at the line, like,
why is nobody helping me here? By the way, they
were all witnessed the fact that you weren't cutting the
right So I looked back at the line, and the
guy see to be looking at the line, and he goes, yeah,
those fucking people, apologize to them. Those are the people
you cut. So my even when you try to do

(01:18:13):
the right thing, I sped up my line. I was
the line hero. I was the guy splitting the line
for everybody. My ass handed to me for nothing. If look,
if I was a different guy, I would have gone
at the guy. I'm not that guy. I'm meek. I
yell a lot, but I don't fight. But I'm not
gonna let Oh you want to take it outside, I'm
gonna taking it outside. And I didn't want to go outside.

(01:18:34):
I did my return cash. How about that? I didn't scared.
I did my return. I made a left instead of
a right where the door was. I made a left
and said, looking at bathtubs. I wasn't leaving until I
thought like the guy was gone, because I like, people
are just looking forward. Let me say, people are so
pent up. The people are acting like real fucking morons

(01:18:57):
because they're all there there. They're untal anguish of whatever
they've been going through. You know, just breathe a little, people,
you know, just I don't. I don't, I don't even go.
I stay away from these stories. He's the kicker. I
was trying to put myself in his place? What were you?
And I'm thinking if I saw someone cut the line,
would I say something? I don't think you would have

(01:19:19):
been so loud. No. Now, I have in the past
said excuse me. I don't know if you're aware, but
there's a line. But this guy just there was none
of that. There was none of that. You cut then
cut the line. Christ You know, I thank you for
not blaming me, by the way, because I know that
in this kid, no no, no, no, Blue mass guy,

(01:19:43):
you pissed him off. We're in the blue mass broad
he said, known better man. You know some people are
just you just can't You can't control them, you can't
tame them. I'll tell you again where you made the mistake.
Tell me where I made the mistakes up to floor
in there you spend, you spend any of your waking moment.
It's at a place called Flora and de Court. That's
where you sucked up. But I needed the care. I

(01:20:04):
needed to care. It's in the title, Oh my God.
I feel like you give yourself a little bit mini projects.
Just keep yourself busy. I don't know. I don't wife
wanted me to look get tied for a backsplash. A wife,
you don't have to deal with a back splash. I
don't have a back. I've been telling myself I'm gonna
put a backsplash in this apartment for the last twelve years. Well,
let me tell you where you should go. Of course,

(01:20:26):
I don't know. I just for some reason, this is
not none of this stuff I would I don't think
I would ever have these issues because I don't think
I would ever put myself in these situations, because I
would never be wasting my time there. I don't know.
How do you do it? How do you spend every week?
Do you like like planet? Every day? Every day you
wake up and you're like, Okay, today, I gotta go
to Target. I gotta go to the ups store. If yes,

(01:20:49):
When you have a family and responsibility, yes, I say,
you know what Saturday from such and such at twelve
o'clock until dinner, I'm I'm available. I'm gonna go do
things for the house. I don't think I've ever set
foot in You live in a one bedroom apartment four
one bedroom apartment depot. I've been to home depot. I
don't think. I don't think I've ever been to Lows.
I don't think I've ever been inside one. And you

(01:21:11):
live near Lows. I do you do live? Let listen.
I go to Target if I have to. But I
order shot online. I don't know I have I like
stuff sent to me. I like stuff sent to me. Okay,
order online, ordering online. My wife sends me text messages
with she sees the tiles she likes. She sends me
four pictures of tiles she likes. Oh, their teel blue,

(01:21:32):
They'll go great with the great kitchen. These are the
three I like, so I go to floor in decor
and I go to pick them out. You know what,
none of them look like the picture. You know why, well,
the lighting on your phone, the lighting of our pictures.
You never can tell. You can't see the way it looks.
You have to be you have to be able to
live your floor in decor. You have to be able

(01:21:53):
to find a way to make the colors wrong so
they match when you get there. That makes you have
to you have to correct it on right. You have
to pre correct it wrong. That the camera people don't
know what kind of phone I have, and they all
look different. I get that, but they weren't even close
like these look solid teal. And when I got there,

(01:22:15):
they were like little stripes of multicolors that if they
were twenty ft away you might think they would teal,
But up close they were horrific, horrifically that reminds me
of something else, bubble head dolls. Let me talk about
bubble head dolls for a second. Yeah, speaking of things
that don't look like they're supposed to. They never look
like I have a bobblehead dollar of me. It doesn't

(01:22:36):
look like me, but I always bought us all bubble
head dolls many you want I'm talking about if you
looked at mine and looked at yours, you could tell
which one was me, But it doesn't look like me.
Yours doesn't look like you. However, hit me out my
bubble head doll. Although it looks like maybe like me,
it looks exactly like someone on the planet. Right, somebody

(01:22:57):
looks like my bobble head. If I go to a
Mets game and I get a Peter Alonzo bobblehead, it
doesn't look like Peter Alonzo, it looks like somebody. Somebody
looks just like that bubblehead. So what I want to
know is if you could make that bubblehead look like
someone that sort of looks like Pete Alonzo, then why
can't you try to make it look like someone who
doesn't look like Peter Alonzo and haven't end up looking

(01:23:18):
like Peter Alonzo. So the same concept here, you you're
creating the correct that you're correcting it ahead of time.
Like right, the pictures online versus going in the ears
are always smaller. They make the ears bigger and the
mouth smaller than what you think it should look like.
Question these are the questions to ponder, how, how why

(01:23:38):
don't they laser print them. You can't make a bobblehead
in one. You can put a rover on Mars, but
you can't make a bubble head. It looks like a
player that that look Yeah, it looks like him. Oh
my god, what a great idea for the merch store
bubble heads for all of us. No, that's some bubbleheads
of us of what what are you thinking, dude, Alonzo
