I probably should. No, I mean I have all these
bit talks like that. They just say the movers. They
don't give them a company name because it's because people

Speaker 1 (02:48):
That's not true. There aren't they a national brand? People?
Aren't they a national brand? I don't know. I don't
think so.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
They're great, though, cake, you know what, Let's see how
great they are when you're still was all delivered and
nothing's missing and nothing's damaged.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Well, that's right. So that's the crazy thing. I have
all these old radios from like the nineteen thirties and forties,
and I don't buy yourself. Oh so I should carry
those over.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
You're moving a mile away, put them in your car,
put them in a box, carry them over.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
That's what I did mile I'm moving a couple of
streets away. Well yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
When we sold our house, I took all the things
that were very very valuable and like crystal glasses, my
comic books.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
I put them in the car. I drove them over.
You drove them over because it's not worth it's not
worth it, I guess to have them broken. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
I set up storage racks in the new garage and
I put stuff in the garage so it would be
there temporarily, so I didn't so stuff. I was like, oh,
you know what, I can't replace my comics. I can't
replace this. You know, valuable china are dishes. I took
all that myself.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
All right, Well you know that point point doing fourteen
point nine billion dollar sound system. Thank you doing it
yourself doing noted. Yeah, that's gonna be an issue. I
have to disconnect all this stuff. I have a lot
of electronics in my place, and so I don't know
what I'm gonna do here. I need to find a
lamp that goes on. You can't turn it on switch.

(04:13):
That's a stupid lamp. That's not a stupid lamp. You
just don't know how to use it. You have to
you have to command it to turn on it off.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Well, you know what, next time you give me the
keys to your apartment to go in to get something,
you should tell me.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
It's all voice commands. My lighting goes on and off
with the sound of my voice. I just now, are
you still gonna give me keys to the apartment when
I need to get in to get something? With your
new place? Is that well? With the new place, I'm
not so sure because that place has a swimming pool
and you are not worthy of my swimming pool. Well
you you don't even like your swimming pool because's indoors.

(04:47):
You know how I feel about indoor swimming pools. I'm
not with your boozie bastard. Yeah, so I guess the
latest is scary.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
We grew up in Brooklyn where our swimming pool was
the fire hydrant. We opened up and we ran through
the sprinkler right if there was a sprinkler cap on it.
Otherwise we threw water at each other. That was the
pool was water balloons. And now you're too snooty for
an indoor pool.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Back me up on this, slices slices, back me up
that there's something about an indoor swimming pool that is
just skivats. Something about an indoor swimming pool now where
you could smell the chlorine. There's something about not having
fresh air around the.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Richest, the richest people in the world have indoor pools.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
And by the way, and I wouldn't be able to
go in it. I can't do it.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
I can't get my Aren't there windows yeah? The windows, Yeah,
I'll get his windows. The sunlight's gonna come in, of course, ventilation.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
I cannot. I cannot go into a you know, you know.
It took all my might earlier this summer to go
into the wave pool at It was the water park
at sponsor sponsor, yes, their sponsor. No, it was the
one American dream It was dream Mark water Park. And

(06:10):
by the way, beautiful dream Works water Park is beautiful.
It's clean, all of it, so there's nothing wrong with it.
It's my own mental block. Something in my brain says,
oh my god, even though the ceilings are a mile
high and the sun's coming in and it's sunny, and
I can get a sunburn right now, it's coming up.
You got cakes on the griddle.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Okay, when we go on when we go on Norwegian
cruise ships, right, the haven has their own private indoor pool.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
I hate it. I will not go in it. Oh
my god, it's awesome. I will not go on it. No,
you never go in the hate It's forty foot ceilings
and windows. It's gorgeous. You don't go in that pool.
That didn't smell like chlorine. There's something that's that's holding
me back. Wait, Sean, what happened? Sean? Basically, this something

(07:00):
holding me back? That's a song I don't know the song.
I don't know the song. There's nothing holding me back, Mendez.
There's something holding me back from going into a pool,
and it's it has to do with not having fresh

(07:20):
air around you. And I don't know why I couldn't
tell you. It's not a bougie thing. It's not. It
is something. There's a there's something that clicks in my brain.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Let's move on. I'm gonna go in your pool at
some point. Whatever I gotta do to earn your your favor,
I'll go in. I'll tell you how great it is.
You'll bring over a toilet. Brian and Jetski, Brian and
uh all the Brian earl, Yeah, black earl and and
and Indian earl, black earl less. His name is less
okay less black less, Yeah earl?

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Where's you an earl from black Earl? Oh?

Speaker 2 (07:58):
That's a it's a character from a New York radio Okay,
that's nice, all right, all right, So you got your
poor all right? So enough about scary who is so bougie.
He's moving into a building with a pool and he's
not gonna use it. Believe that you're gonna use it.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
You're gonna use it. Because your girlfriend did go. Am
I going to the pool? No, No, she's not going
to I can't picture it. You ever go to let's say,
go to Atlantic City. You know, Harris. In Atlantic City
they have that indoor indoor beach boom, the dome, the
pool with a beach. Yeah, then they have the lounge
chairs and stuff. You shit down on those out of

(08:33):
rondeck lounge chairs with a towel and like to take
the sun. Dude, it's just because you have no kids.
I used to have a water parks in my family.
So what you know?

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Me, I sunburned like the men I walk outside. So
indoor pool is wonderful. I don't know what's going on. Man,
they'll hire a DJ for you. You'll hear that and
you'll go right in.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
You'll get in, all right. Well, I do have other
things about the apartment. Okay, that's not a bougie problem.
But I do I do a bougie problem. Can we
do that? Coming up next? Yeah? What of course with
Scario body? Should I lime wash my walls? What did

(09:19):
you say, lime wash your balls? Lime wash my walls?
I don't know what that means exactly. So apparently there's
this you Google. You can google it. It's all the
range now in twenty twenties, In all twenty twenty six,
the hot new thing to do is to instead of painting,

(09:41):
you limewash. It's a very old technique done in ancient
Greek and Roman times, but it's had a renaissance recently
and it you use clay paint that's much poor, more
porous and organic, and it's it's better for the environment,
better for your breathing, and the paint when you apply

(10:04):
it it has the paint looks like it's moving on
the wall. It's it's got like almost like a three
D quality to it. The problem is it takes about
five six seven coats because it's very drippy and watery,
and you can't just use a regular classic paint roller.
You got to use like brushstrokes, and you got to

(10:25):
know what you're fucking doing. And so you got this
this paint and apparently to get a painter to do that,
I can't get, uh, you know, I can't get Juan
Valdez to paint my walls here. I gotta get I
actually have to get like someone more of an artist
who specializes what's the name of the paint company, Benjamin

(10:47):
a whole lot more. So I'm sitting there, I'm talking
to this guy and wait a minute, is this way? Wait? Wait?

Speaker 2 (10:54):
Wait wait, hold on the second before you go on
the story. In your current building, you went to the
superintendent and he gave you I'm leftover paint and he's
splattered all over your walls white paint and you got
sucked into it. Right now in your new building, what
the guy say to you? Oh, you want me to
lime wash your walls.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
No, it's not a scam. This Bay taught you. This
is a method of This is an actual method that
looks It makes your room look alive. It actually will
get It's a head turner. People look at like, wow,
that's awesome. Oh my god, I want to do that
to my room. It's the finish slices. Google lime washed

(11:34):
walls and you'll see that these walls are better anything normally.
Why you can't just paint your wall? No I can't,
because why should I be normal?

Speaker 2 (11:46):
Dude, who's gonna walk into your I want to see
footage of people walking into your apartment going, oh my god, these.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Walls, but not these walls, not not all the walls,
but like special the third bathroom, the special room, Like
my studio. How cool would it be to have a
studio that has character to it and it's like lifelike
and mine.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Has character because I'm in it. I guess you need
the special walls and doors.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
No, I'm just saying, like, you get a fun, bright,
vibrant color. But so, so I was talking to this.
So I was talking to the potential painter and he's
like a guy who does is he is? He not
a painter, but he has the potential to be a painter.
He's one of the people who's gonna give me a quote.
And you know, he doesn't speak, doesn't speaking goes very well.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Okay, frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn or
does this speaking is very well.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
So so anyway, so I'm he's one of the guys
that do a lot of the big buildings around here
and they do great work. Him and him guy he
was recommended to me by the super of my building.
So so suckers for paint dot Com. So I'm sitting
there and I'm talking to him in the new unit
and I'm like walking around and then I said, look,

(13:00):
I said, how much for this paint job. You know,
all this stuff, and you know he's giving me a
good decent price. And then I said, okay, what if
I want to limewash my walls instead? Stop laughing? What
did he say? Well, he's like, did he have the.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Over his head? Was there a big bag of money
with a dollar sign on it? Well, his face dropped.
He goes, what do you want a limewash? He knew
what it was. Yeah, So I look at my room.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
I said, see this room right here, this is gonna
be the master bedroom. And then so here's gonna be
my office. So those two rooms I want like specialized
paint special I want to do the lime wash. So
he's like, my friend, my friend, I don't I can't
do that. He goes, I could do the rest of
the apartment for you, but those two rooms I'm gonna

(13:49):
have to bring somebody else in who knows how to
lime wash. He goes, it's like you almost need like
a special artist to do it, or someone who knows
what they are doing. Here's what's gonna he's gonna got.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
He's gonna go get another guy he's gonna get He's
gonna get a taste of that money. So he's getting
a percentage to find you the other guy. So you're
gonna be overpaying now for an all in one deal here.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
But but lime washing is such a it's such a
pain in the ass that apparently it costs like triple
to paint a room with whitewash with with a lime wash.
And and now I'm hearing that if you will don't
like it, it's hard to get off because you're scraping, scraping, scraping.

(14:36):
It's not just regular pain. And thirdly, they said that
the lime wash may or may not last more than
five to eight years, and you need another code of
it but to refresh it, so it may not be
I may not be doing the lime washing, Brodie, God
damn it. But the guy was gonna bring in a
specialist just for that room. So I'm like, why does

(14:59):
everything have to cost about your money? But if you
google lime washed just paint the walls. Will you google
lime washed walls for me, please? And then you'll get it.
You're like, Oh, that looks fucking cool. That's next level.
Ship's gary, that's what you'll tell me. Hold on, let
me see if I got some images of lime washed
lime washed walls, and it's a very popular thing. Listen.

(15:22):
I would even go so far as to say, some
of our slices have lime washed walls. I'm gonna say, no,
you don't like that.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Oh look, you can buy lime washed wallpaper and make
it look like the walls.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
Of lime washed.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
You can go on a wayfair and get lime washed wallpaper.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
This was a very common practice in ancient Greek and
Roman times apparently.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Okay, I'm looking at what the wall looks like. Uh,
it looks like like textured wall. Like like when you
when you just buy like textured coating and you buy
like a second roller and you do a second coat. Yeah,
my wife did that in a hallway once years ago.
It came out fantastic. You didn't limewash it, you just uh,
what is it called.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
What's it called?

Speaker 2 (16:04):
When you're like a texture paint on your wall with
two different colors, that's what it's called color? Two color,
faux painting, something like that.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Okay, two tone. Anyway, it was like a faux glaze,
foulk laze painting. My favorite that's my favorite doughnut, that's
your favorite point star. All Right, we'll just change the
topic because I'm sick of being beaten here, No no, no, no,

(16:33):
a lot. You can lime wash your walls all you want.
I'll send you what what we did.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Uh we bought Uh it was Ralph Lauren and it
was some kind of speckled paint. I forget what it was.
But you use two rollers and when you paint it
makes it look textured. You save yourself a fortune.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
Okay, alright, speaking of of of of of a spackled
and painted I played pickleball last night, now, scary. I
want to know what you don't say you play pickleball?
I do. Yeah, you got my pickleball jingle. I don't
know what you're talking about pickleball jingle. Go ahead, I
gotta find my pickleball jingle now because you don't have it.

(17:10):
I don't have you. I know you never gave it
to me. So continue. That's a lie. You gotta find
you said this last time we had this argument. Continue.
Come on, Brodie, I'm gonna find it. We'll get it
next time. Here we go. Hold on, I gotta hear.
I'll play it great. Hold on, you play it over there?
He is an old version. I want to help. That's

(17:32):
not it. Okay, Brody all right, come on now, let's
let's go. Let's move on. No, no edits, no edits.
We're not editing this podcast. You're talking to yourself on
you no, forget it, and I'm not editing this out.
See this is slices. This is what he does. All right,
you know what you suck? No, you send it to
me in proper MP three form. All right.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
So I'm playing pickleball last night and I noticed my
partner's left bicep is bleeding. So he's got blood dripping
down his left arm. Now now he's he's out, he's
he's serving. Okay, So the ball is in his in
his hand, his paddles in his hands, about to serve. Exactly.

(18:15):
I say, hey man, your arm is bleeding. So he
puts the ball under his arm for a second, you know,
like you know, and what to hold it. And he
takes his right hand and he rubs his his left
bicep to get the blood to stop, you know this,
smear it so it's not dripping on the court. Right now,
he's got blood on his hands because he's rubbing. He's
got he hit the rubbing thing going. And then he
takes the ball in his bloody hand. So I go,

(18:39):
I go, So, I go, hey, man, nice shot, filter, man,
n shot, thank you filter.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
You just got blood on the ball. I mean, no offense,
but now he got bad blood tailor sweet thank you.
So he looks at me and he goes, what's the
problem the insalia? Thank you? I said, the problem is
that you got blood on the ball.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
He's like, he's oh, so okay. So first of all,
I'm gonna tell you what he said. But first of all,
what would you do, scary? Would you be like, no problem,
cool and keep playing?

Speaker 1 (19:18):
No, no, no, So would you just walk off? Or
you demand he gets another ball? I would. I would say, look,
we're gonna have to break in the action here, let's
hit the reset button. Let's get a different ball. Yeah.
I would just tell him nicely, what did you do?
It's gross? Right, I'm not overreacting you you're not overreacting.

(19:39):
So he says to me, Now this is where that's
why I almost lost it. Now. Look, I'm not implying
anything about this guy. He's a nice guy.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
I don't know about him, but if he's got a
transmittable disease, I don't want the blood on the ball.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Didn't touch my hand. I'm sweating, right, there's a lot
going on there.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
You can make a list of all the transmittable diseases
that transmit through the blood that would not be good
to get. He says, Oh, man, don't worry about it.
I'm good, I'm not. I'm not a hemophiliac or anything.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
What does that have to do with anything? Exactly exactly.
A hemophiliac means your blood doesn't clot and if you
cut your hand you keep bleeding, it doesn't. He wasn't
worried about himself because I'm good. I'm not. I'm good,
I'm not a humophiliac. I'm like, no, dude, I'm worried
about you have like some awful, deadly disease in your blood. Well,

(20:30):
isn't it true that once it hits the oxygen in
the air, it dies? No? No, no, no, did you
which idiot? Did you hear that from on some podcast? No?

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Anyway, so he goes, we're good, I'm not a humanophiliac.
It's all good, and he serves the ball and uh,
you know, the other team hits it whatever, and they
they they got them. They didn't get the point, but
they won. That that serve. So now I have to
serve because i'm server too, and I don't there's no
other ball around, so I I let the ball. I

(21:02):
pick up the ball with the with my paddle, and
I'm like, you put the needle on the record. Needle
on the record, you needed on the record. Normally, what
I would do is I would take the ball on
my left hand, toss it, you know, like just drop
it and whack it with the paddle in my right hand.
But I don't want to touch the ball. So what
I do is I take the paddle and I'm balancing
the ball. He's not looking at me, and I kind

(21:22):
of pop the ball with the paddle. Yeah, and I'm scary.
I was praying we lost the point because then I
would have to serve again. But no, we win the
point and I have to serve again. So I'm doing
the same thing again. So he's like, oh, I got
you serve. I go day six two two.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
They didn't. They didn't discount your your serve because you
didn't lift the ball followed.

Speaker 2 (21:49):
I followed whatever the rules I did. The rules don't
get into that. The point is the other two people
on the other side were like going. We kind of
given it also because they didn't want to touch the ball.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
So like when we lost the point, they have to
serve now, and they were like, we're gonna go get
other ball. So we got out of the ball. But
then eventually it came back around to him where it's
his turn to serve again. He still got bloody hand,
got bloody hand.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
So, needless to say, we lost because I couldn't serve properly.
I wouldn't touch the ball, sir, bloody head. Yeah, so
pickle ball players, what would you even non pickaball players?

Speaker 1 (22:24):
What are you doing that? Like? I didn't want to
be like, dude, it's fucking gross. Get don't wash your hand.
I don't want to cause your grown ass adults. I
feel like you get the Yeah, as an adult, wouldn't
you just go, oh fuck, I got blood on my hands.
I better go wash my hands. Yeah, but you're like, oh,
it's my blood, So what do white cat's on the ball.
But it's okay, he's not a hemophiliac. What does that mean?

(22:44):
You know what it means, But how does it relate?

you're not drinking, you know, to say something you're not
You're not slurping the sweat of Aaron Judge. You if
you go to if you went to Michigan, you went
to Michigan and somebody gives you a Michigan State glass,
You're not drinking out of it. There's rivalries in this
world that people are not going to cross. Okay, Vikings

(24:38):
fans are not drinking out of a Chicago Bears mug.
They're not doing it, not doing you know. I feel
that the only thing reason why I wouldn't is because
I wouldn't want him to pick up his phone and
sneak a quick picture and be like, ah, this scary
with a Yankee logo like right, something like that, you
know where people are trying to do something you know

(25:00):
that underhanded and then later posted online. We we did
that with our with our buddy Ryan Knuckles, Huge Ryan Knuckles.
Who's Ryan Knuckles? You know Knuckles? I don't know is
that because it seem drags knuckles when he wants he's done.
He's a big muscular guy. But his last name is Knuckles.

(25:21):
It's spelled n U c k o l s knuckles
like Nickols, but knuckles. Does nu see O k O
l s Yeah? Knuckles anyway, yeah o us. He's a
huge Dallas cowboy fan. Okay, and forgot what happened somewhere.

(25:42):
We were at a bar and it was really cold
outside and somebody was like, oh you should you know?
He goes, oh you want to hat? Oh, bar my hat,
and my buddy put as we walk out of the bar,
puts the New York Giant hat on his head. No,
he didn't know, but he didn't notice it. He was
all thanks man. He was like half drunk. Anyway, he's

(26:03):
like a hat. And then we ran ahead of him
and we took several pictures of him in a Yankee
in a New York Giant beanie. So this picture forever
lives on the group chat. Every time the Giants play
the Cowboys. If the Giants were to win, whatever the case,
right Giant win or a cowboy loss, this picture rears

(26:27):
a tuggly head. So so for that reason, I wouldn't
want to be caught with a Yankee logoed uh, you know,
mugging my hand.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
However, but if if Knuckles saw the logo on the
hat when he wasn't drunk, when he was kept it
on his head.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
No, but we'd rather be That's my point.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
I'd rather be thirsty than drink out of a glass
with a Yankee logo and paperman, you knew it.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
He's like, I knew you weren't going to I knew it.
I knew you.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
Wouldn'tdrink out of that glass. And it slices. Leave us
a talkback? Whose what sports team or college logo logo
would you not?

Speaker 1 (27:01):
We know? All right, this is gonna be fun. Now
now we're gonna have eighty eighty uh talkbacks with people
saying one word. Now, that's not fun. That's not fun.
I want you to know. I'll tell you what slices
Brody the low Yes, email Brody privately on that one.
We're not gonna go to twenty pages of talkbacks, which

(27:22):
like PA Charlotte.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Hornets, but what I want to know your opinion on
Like I would never wear a Charlotte Hornets shirt because
I wouldn't drink out of that glass. That's all I
want to hear, whether you drink out of the glass
or not. Am I crazy but not want to drink
out of the Yankee glass? If it was something I
felt strongly about?

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Scary? Is there anything you feel strongly about a lot
of things?

Speaker 2 (27:45):
Okay, so give me something you feel strongly about a
brand or or a team.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
You're a Giants fan? Would would you? Would you drink
out of a Washington a commander's mug if it was
put in front of me and no one was taking
a picture, as I said, yes, I would do it.
It's okay. You are you are something else. You know.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
Fan is short for fanatic. You gotta be You gotta
be loyal to your team. I'm not trinking out of
that and he knew it. The fact is he knew it.
He wouldn't drink out of it. You're a dad, last
time I checked you.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
So my nephew, my nephew Lucas, Yes, and my nephew Nico. Okay,
Lucas is fifteen, is eight, my sister's kids. Christmas time,
my girlfriend Robin gives Lucas the older one one hundred

(28:40):
dollars in say a free show. Sorry, go ahead, one
hundred bucks. Boom. Okay, that's very nice, very nice. I
shouldn't have to do, I said, what are you doing?
Give it him money? Anyway. A couple of weeks later,
the money had gone missing. He didn't know what he
did with the money, Lucas. So my sister was like,

(29:03):
this is crazy. You didn't spend it. And he's like, no,
I didn't spend it. Where'd it go? I don't know.
They looked under every couch, they would they you know,
They asked, when these couches are sofas, sofas, these are couches. Okay, scared, Okay,
scary just made a stink face like his sister's got

(29:23):
he couches, said that shitty couch facette. She's got fine
taste in furniture like me. You just no, she's gonna
fine tastes the furniture like her older brother. So she
so anyway, they asked, Nico, did you see this money?
Did you see that one hundred dollars? No, I don't
know where it is. Nobody knew where his money is,

(29:44):
and and everyone and she kept circling back, what's going on, Nico?
You're sure you didn't see this money? Nope, Lucas, you
sure you didn't spend it? Nope, didn't spend it? All right? Great?
Fast forward to last week, my sister gets a call
from the school. Hello, missus, scary, Yeah, we have your

(30:07):
son Nico here. He's trying to buy candy with a
one hundred dollars bill. Oh no, oh, my sister was furious.
She died. He lied, and he stole from his brother,
and he and he thought he could get away with

(30:29):
spending one hundred dollar bills in fourth grade, third whatever grade.
He said, he was eight years old. He brought the
fucking money to school. He stole for his brother. He
lied to his mother, my sister and brother in law repeatedly,
and just kept it at weeks and weeks, sat on
it for like two months, and then all of a sudden,

(30:51):
out of nowhere, it just turns up at the candy sale.
And like my sister was beside herself because, I mean,
this could be the this could be the start of
a bigger problem. Don't you think? What what is the
punishment for this? I don't well. She first of all,
she took away his roadblocks and all the video games

(31:11):
and everything. She took away anything she possibly could to
illustrate that this was beyond awful, like you because he
had never First of all, he had never done anything
like this before. But now this is an example of
this kid being being, you know, from his own brother.
He stole from his brother and it lied to his

(31:33):
mother mother, and then tried to spend the money for
on candy, which he wasn't supposed to be having.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Dude, this kid's going to be in the mob before
you know it. He's already got the makings.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
What what is it?

Speaker 2 (31:44):
What did Lucas say? Well, he was his own brother
stole from him.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
Yeah, you know, he's a fifteen year old, you know,
like whatever, you know, he uninterested. But but yeah, I
don't know, like for I don't know how to deal
with this, Like like my sister was, I said, what
are you trying to? How are you gonna reprimand him?
How you what are the consequences of this? She was,
I chose, I took away everything, everything, and he's got

(32:08):
to learn a lesson. And how is a teachable moment?
Like what do you? What do you do? You're That's
why I started this conversation by saying you're a parent, ah,
because no one saw that coming.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Part of me is thinking like I would take something
away fro him permanently, like as if it was stolen
from him, so he'd see how it felt mm hmm,
like give something to his to charity or something like.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Bye bye wow. Yeah, and that's terrible.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
I mean, listen, uh, everybody's kids lie a little bit,
but that's that's beyond. I'll tell you for one hundred dollars,
I would say, in about another month, you know what
he could buy You'll leather couch.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
Update update on the letter a leather couch. Yeah, you
want to hear the update? I'm slightly really you heard
it here first? Oh, hit her her first? What's the update?
In the end? Beatles Lincoln Park or at Lincoln Park. Yeah,

(33:21):
in the end, also on the Abbey Road, one of
my favorite albums of all time. Favorite in the in
the end, God Rest his soul, Chester Beddington. I heard
some crazy ship conspiracy about that over the weekend, about
Chester and and others. I know, I know. I'm just

(33:43):
saying I heard some some crazy TikTok appeared. I don't
sign up for that. I don't sign up for this stuff,
but anyway it gets served to me. So so anyway,
my my point is my point. Oh, the the couch,
the sofa. Three, there's three endings to this Facebook marketplace

(34:07):
with Jetski Bryan. He had it listed and he had
a guy from Hoboken who said, I have a two
thousand dollars budget. Had he had it listed at two
thousand dollars. He says, I have a two thousand dollars budget.
He says, it's gonna cost me two hundred and fifty
dollars to remove my current couch and pick that one

(34:29):
up and bring it here and up a five floor
walk up. And so best offer I can give is
seventeen fifty to which take it run John, take it
and run exactly. Jetske Brian was like on my behalf
was like yes, yes, And what happens in typical Facebook
marketplace fashion. The guy ghosted him, ghosted him. Well, we

(34:53):
don't know that because he did. He didn't come back
a couple of times, but anyway, still knows okay, but
he said he would take it, and then another woman
is it still available, I'm interested, I want to see it,
and ghosted all for not And that was at the
ripe price of two thousand. Then I put it on

(35:15):
my internal building link, you know, right here in my building.
I suggested that to you. Yes, I put it on
there for nineteen hundred dollars cash. I'm not going to
name the person. But last night I get an email
from the person and she writes, where is it? Here is?

(35:41):
I saw your post. We are interested in the sofa.
Is it still available? If so, do you have dimensions
and can we see it? And it's put the dimensions
in the listening. It was in there, but it was buried. No,
no in the posting. No, no in the in in
my posting for my building link. It was not in there. No,
was on your phone. No. It was my fault. So

(36:01):
I went back to her. I said, you know, I said, uh,
she's got a very prominent job because it has a stamp,
her name stamped there signature. I gave it to the dimensions.
This is this was twenty four hours ago to the minute. Yeah,
well do this. I gave it dimensions and my phone number.

(36:22):
I said, you want to come up and see it.
So I have not not gotten an answer. And then
here's the this is the icing on the cake. I
listed it in a in a very big antique chair
and sofa website where they all where those people circle
the drain, the one one of the ones. They told them.

(36:42):
I gave you yes, right listed it there. I get
an email this afternoon, good news, your item has sold.
I had it listed for two and fifty dollars the
actual retail price two hundred twenty four to fifty. It's
sold for twenty four to fifty. No yes to people

(37:04):
in my is someone in Miami, but here's and they
and they pay the shipping, and they said, hey, you
can't get a couch local. This is not just any
fucking couch. Oh my god, I'm gonna throw my chair
through the goddamn window. But no, but nobody in the
Southeast America has ladies and gentlemen. This is a twenty

(37:24):
year old vintage piece from Design within Reach. They don't
produce this anymore. It's Italian leather. I'm not going through
this aga. I'm gonna rip the hair out of my head.
If you want this sofa in this style, if you
want it's not just any sofa, you're gonna have to
find it used somewhere, and you're gonna pay whatever you're

(37:46):
not gonna pay. They're getting shipped out of your apartment.
They're gonna have this company. I have, I have, I
have a quandary coming up here. The company said, the
shipping information will be sent to you in a day
or so. They arrange for all of that. That's what
this company does. So they'll arrange for a shipper, they'll come,

(38:07):
they'll pack it up, and they will get it delivered
to the people who bought it in Miami. Here's the problem.
Here's the problem. That's the problem. I sold it for
twenty four fifty whatever it was. My take on that,
My takeaway is one thy, four hundred forty dollars. They

(38:27):
take forty percent, they take four zero percent. So dude,
So here's here's the rub or or not. If this
couple from my building gets back to me and wants
the damn thing for nineteen hundred, what is my consequence
for renegging on this or rescinding the sale? You have

(38:50):
to read. You better read the contract. Well I did.
They said that they will ban me for life from
being a member of that site. Well because, but but
is it worth it? Because I'm gonna make five hundred
dollars extra and it's in this worth building. Let me
work it. That's reversion. Okay. You could call your y,

(39:11):
your neighbor, wait, call before you come. I need to
shave much shot. Yeah, you could call your on your sofa.
You could call your neighbor right now. Yes, I know.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
You can call your neighbor right now and say, if
you want the sofa right now, seventeen fifty.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
No, it's nineteen scary. Oh, to speed up the sale.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
Yeah, right, if you if you wanted this second, commit
right now seventeen fifty. If it's worth three hundred dollars
to fuck over these people in Florida.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Well that's the thing. Well, well that's the thing over
the company. Didn't you know forty percent? No? No, I
didn't read the fine print on that. I didn't know
they get forty percent. That's a lot of money. How
did you not look that up? And where's my cart?
I recommended the sight to you. I get ten percent,
don't I? Yeah? Okay, come on anyway, I don't know

(40:04):
I have I feel like I need to go through
with the sale to the people in Miami and and
take a five hundred dollars haircut on it.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
Well, you don't have a commitment. Truthfully, it could be
the best offer you get.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
It's yeah, in which case I told you it meets it.
It checks all the boxes, mister accomplished fourteen fifty right,
tax free or a They going to report your taxes
on this? No, you don't have to.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
Don't have to pay taxes because it's less than what
you paid for. Yes, somebody comes takes it out of
your house. Nightmare solved. Your hands are clean, right, take
the money and run. Okay, but not, but don't be
but don't get greedy and run.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
Don't get greedy and f over f over the company,
get banned from the company, and then and then, uh,
just take the extra money from the people in the
building who may want it and what and wheel it
out of here. I don't know. It's a tough call.
I don't know. All right, Well, they've ever gotten back
to me, so all right to be content? The words
of Steve Miller band that scary. I have I have

(41:11):
a present for you. Oh really, I have a present
for it. That's so nice of you, Brodie. You've never
bought me one thing. It's something you know, except for
that it's my fucking one black and white nineteen eighty
six Mets World Series picture that was framed that you
didn't want. I never gave you anything I didn't want
you're talking about? Nah, there's like a team photo nineteen

(41:38):
eighty six Mets. All right, why I got you a
little something? What do you got? What you got for me? Brody? Oh?
Here it is scary newbeam. The engine is humming.

He get in lid. He wanted blue, but they knew
he would pay if they told him the car.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Was Brooklyn wrist. What is this an original? It's not
even a cover on every Man?

Speaker 3 (42:38):
That's nothing new scary get in lead that Brooklyn Gray
is really in line. It kind of looks like dirty.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
Thank you AI. There you go. I wrote that myself,
for of course you did. When are you gonna be called?
When are you gonna be be able to do a parody?
That's my question?

Speaker 2 (43:12):
Uh, when I get back into radio, no, I can
you know what I think this? This program I use
it now has parody functionality.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
But that was an original? That was nice? All right? Okay?
I wrote that designed it, created the musical phrasing. I
laid out the choruses and the verses and to accent,
and I did I designed all that.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
That doesn't just happen. That's not just AI. That's me
working it, working it, working it.

Speaker 1 (43:37):
You know, one might say I I lime wall painted
it exactly. Hey did you uh watch the super Bowl?
Obviously you did? Duh. I went to my buddy Jay
Smoller's Brooklyn super Bowl party, Brooklyn Basement super Bowl party,
and it was a television Oh it is huge. He's

(43:58):
got a good TV, nice sound system.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
Okay, as I got invited to a party with a
forty seven inch TV, I'm like.

Speaker 1 (44:03):
No, no, no, no, no no no. Well I'll say he
had it catered. Now now, David Brody, Yeah, if you
and I'm not gonna, I'm not going to out the
place because we want it's It's like twenty foot hero sandwiches, right,
It's one of those types of places. Yeah, and I
don't want them to suffer because it's mom and pop
and they're probably barely hanging on. But if you wander

(44:26):
a hero, right, six foot hero, you want to stop
grinder hold and then you order some pasta dishes or
some for some hot trays, and you order, you order wings,
all that stuff when you when you bring this stuff
home and you open it up, specifically the wings. Mm hmm,

(44:47):
what would you expect to see?

Speaker 2 (44:51):
Well, I'm let me run down the list of the things,
all the things I would expect to see, in no
particular order. Yeah, I would expect to see carrots and
celery Okay. I would expect to see dipping dressings like
blue cheese dressing.

Speaker 1 (45:04):
Sure.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
I would expect to see the sauce on the wings yep,
not on the side, yep. And I would expect to
see a lot of wet naps and napkins and and
and uh ways to wipe my hands and face. Yeah,
all the things right, all the and all the the yeah,
the condiments, the side, all the stuff, everything back up

(45:25):
es exactly because it's Super Bowl Sunday.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
Uh uh. You're having a party at your house, you
having in a body. Yeah, so you want buffalo wings
with all the stuff, Yeah, all the stuff. He opens
up the wings, none of the stuff, none of what
you mentioned. And the wings were just regular wings. There

(45:51):
was no sauce on them, no French red hot. He's
like oh my god. And I was the first guest
there and he's like, mother fucker, and I'm like, what's
going on? Is they fucking made regular wings? Brody? Who
the fuck? It? Doesn't use their brain and assume or

(46:11):
even even just like he ordered it. He ordered wings.
Did he order spicy wings or he just said wings?
He said wings? Yeah, But did he say I want
wings hot, mild, spicy hot? Did he say anything breaded?
He just said wings. It's the Super Bowl Sunday. You're
getting six foot heroes. You're getting all the things. You

(46:32):
get the wings with the hot sauce, you get it all.
You get, the celery, you get the blue cheese, you
get all of it. You want wings. Or if you're
the store, call the guy up and say, hey, we
have several kinds of wings here, and when you say wings,
we just give you just wings, naked wings, just just

(46:52):
breaded and fried wings with nothing. That's what wing redded.
They were at least breaded. They were breaded and fried wings.
That's it. Just so he was was the breading. Was
the breading seasoned at all? Was it like, no, no, nothing,
there's roasted wings, whatever, baked whatever. It sounds like your
friend Jason got roasted. Well, he was. He was fit
to be tied. But I said, look, cooler head heads prevail,

(47:15):
I said, I said, it's very simple to make hot wings,
buffalo wings out of naked wings. You have the wings,
they're cooked. I said, right, So all you gotta do
is he has Frank's Red Hot in his house and butter.
Equal parts Frank's Red Hot and melted butter with that
ship on everything. And then you throw us a little

(47:38):
bit of honey in it, some garlic powder, some other things,
mix it all up, tossed it in a big ball
with the wings, and ye, pot ow it was. I
get doing all the work I gave him, Yes, I
gave him the idea of doing it. He said, Scary
Jones saved by super Bowl party because he was freaking out.
You know what to do, And I said, bro, it's

(48:00):
not that difficult to make buffalo sauce. It's literally equal
parts butter and Frank's Red Hot, and you just got butter.
He had Frank's Red Hot. Of course he lives, he
has a kitchen, he has a house. He is a
fan of Frank's Red Hot in my house. Of course,
you put that shit on everything, tabasco whatever it is,
but it's equal parts. That's why chat Chipet told me that.

(48:21):
But anyway, can you anyway? That was it And I said,
you're gonna say something to the guy and he goes, nah,
the moment is past. What what are you're making me upset? Now?
For him?

Speaker 3 (48:35):
No?

Speaker 1 (48:36):
He paid full price?

Speaker 2 (48:37):
But no, did he did you at least look at
the menu on the website, like, see what like? Do
they have other kinds of wings or do they only
have wings?

Speaker 1 (48:44):
No? Sauce? Is that all they sell? It was one
of those verbal over the phone orders. That's how old
school those place is, give me this, this and that.
You can't you can't.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
You gotta order, You gotta say what you want. Can
he swear that he ordered spicy wings?

Speaker 1 (49:00):
He said its But you have to assume on Super
Bowl Sunday you want wings, or at least clarify and say, hey,
we have several kinds of wings here. Would you like
buffalo wings? That's their job? Yeah, I know, but if
you're to wings, that's not But the default is the
default on Super Bowl Sunday shouldn't just be naked wings.

Speaker 2 (49:21):
I'm saying, I don't know. I think it's a little both.
I think it's partially his fault and they did a
bad job as a restaurant.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
And he's not getting free dessert because he didn't ask
for it, and you know whatever, he didn't want to
make a thing of it. He's not he's not a
guy who makes a man. I think you should call
up and get a credit.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
Then you see, I'm disappointed now for him, I'm disappointed.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
You know what else I saw at the airport coming home?
This is this is a brook no the airport coming
back from Miami. I'm going to tell you this. This
is just a little something I'm gonna throw in there
because it's food related. A little something food related. Okay,
we go to what was it Papa john Sparrows was

(50:01):
one of those places at the airport, probably, and we
ordered a meatball sub right through a couple of stuff
to split David Brody, what goes on a meatball sub?

Speaker 2 (50:17):
Well, you got your bread, you got your meatballs, you
got you got your sauce. Yeah, but if you don't
say meatball palm, you're not gonna get cheese.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
No, No, we got cheese. Okay.

Speaker 3 (50:29):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (50:30):
If they put anything else on that sandwich, it's jots,
it's it's.

Speaker 1 (50:35):
No those were Those were the exact ingredients. But let
me specify American cheese. Who the fuck puts American cheese
on a mepal hero with sauce? Who does that? I

(50:55):
would almost rather look at a video of you kissing me.
It was through Ai. You don't want to tell. I
was with Danielle, Gandhi and Nate and you can get
away with provolone, yes you can get but you can't
get away with American cheese. What state were you in?
We were in Florida. We were coming home, Western Florida,

(51:15):
North Florida. No, you're in Miami. But no, no, no,
this goes no, no, no, nowhere, Hey, Middle America slices? Do
you you put American cheese with sauce on a meatball, sandwich,
grind or whatever you want to call it?

Speaker 2 (51:30):
A get away from Italian neighborhoods. Who knows what people
put on that food.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
But American cheese is the doesn't go it's the furthest
cheese even even would you say Swiss could be in
the in the family maybe maybe months.

Speaker 2 (51:44):
I can tell you I have put American cheese on
red sauce meat loaf really because it's like a cheeseburger.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
It's like a cheeseburger, and I guess, I guess, I guess.

Speaker 2 (51:52):
A meatball palm hero is not that different than meat loaf,
except it's got Italian seasoning and the sauce is different,
like a meat loaf is like tomato paste.

Speaker 1 (52:02):
It's not like it just doesn't go American cheese. Yeah, no, no,
that's not terrible terrible in every state, no matter where
you live, if you're in Montana, there's no excuse for that.

Speaker 2 (52:15):
I don't even think like our junior high school would
have done that, like our public school would have done that.

Speaker 1 (52:20):
They made they made some weird combos right along the way.

Speaker 2 (52:23):
Even the lunch lady with the fish nets, the fish,
the hairnet and the flappy arms wouldn't have done that
a lunch lady arms, lady, lunch lady arms or.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
Even even listen, we used to have the fish with
the cheese in the middle, a fish with the American cheese.
Even that's passable with the fish though, play a fish
with cheese. But you don't put yellow American on a sub,
on a meatball sub. What are you doing I'll let
me ask you. My family, my parents. So it was
when I was a kid. We were in California.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
I think we were in Carmel, California, which is northern California,
and we went into an Italian restaurant and they ordered
chicken palm because that's what I did, even as a kid.
I was maybe ten, eleven, twelve years old. I was
ten years old and it didn't taste right. And my
father tasted it and he's like, this doesn't taste right.
He's excuse me. Now, keep in mind, this is a
long time ago, scary when when these cheese is wren

(53:15):
as popular as they are now, and he said, what
kind of cheese is this doesn't taste right? She said,
it's Monterey Jack cheese. Jack cheese Jack cheese. Now now
now Monterey Jack and pepper Jack are more popular. But
if you don't know the cheese back in the day
when it wasn't a thing, and they go, it's Jack cheese,
doesn't that sound shitty?

Speaker 1 (53:35):
It sounds crafty awful. Yeah, it sounds like like like
some guy named Jack sold them cheese. It just didn't
belong on a chicken Jack cheese. It's like Jack cheese.
So what about Swiss? Can Swiss be passable on a
met pole hero No, because Swiss has this distinct taste
that I would think would it doesn't listen. Even if Swiss.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
Cheese tasted good, it isn't the flavor you ordered.

Speaker 1 (53:59):
It is in the flavor profile.

Speaker 2 (54:01):
You want muzzarella cheese, you want pro you want an
Italian cheese, you want you want, you want Pecorino, Romano
Palman cheese, you want what? You don't want American cheese.
It's just on your meatball.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
So what you do? What you pick it off? That
you return and I ate it? I mean, we were hungry,
but but the look on my face of the look
of defeat and despair, like they were taking pictures of
me and they were laughing. Danielle was laughing at me,
and I'm like, Danielle, you're an Italian. This is this
is the sacrilegious here. What's going on? You know?

Speaker 2 (54:36):
So question, what if you had to eat a foot
long meatball palm with American cheese, or or getting an
indoor pool.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
I'm eating the meatball palm every time. I'm not getting
in that indoor pool. Oh was that our cue to
take a break. I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (54:58):
I thought you hit the button. You're move like you're
gonna hit the button. Oh, but you were choking. You
were chokingcast Is this our last break? I have a
question for you.

Speaker 1 (55:12):
Okay, this is I may have an answer, all right,
So I have I'm gonna I have two friends. Uh,
they have the same name, same first name. You only
have two friends. Nope, I have two friends with the
same first name.

Speaker 2 (55:27):
We'll call them. We'll call them Mike for the sake
of this conversation. So Mike, Mike one is someone I
talked to a lot.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
Okay, I have dinner, I see them a lot, No problem.

Speaker 2 (55:38):
Mike too is someone that I was friendly with when
I was single before I got married.

Speaker 1 (55:46):
Okay, Uh, I lived with a long time ago. He
was my roommate.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
I haven't really spoken to him like a real conversa
other than like Facebook now and then.

Speaker 1 (56:03):
Maybe fifteen years maybe more, okay, okay. Now.

Speaker 2 (56:08):
I used to have a phone that I got for
free to the radio station. Had an eight four or
five area code. Ye people from back in the day.
If I gave them that number, they may not have
my new number because they haven't seen me in twenty years.
But twenty years ago I had eight four or five
number because we had Verizon was a sponsor and they

(56:29):
gave me a phone for the morning show.

Speaker 1 (56:31):
So for like eight years I had this eight fully
five number.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
Okay, So I'm supposed to meet Mike one every day
Mike for dinner. So I tell my car, Hey, text Mike, okay,
I don't pay attention to which Mike okay, I wasn't

(56:54):
worthy of paying attention, and so I text, Hey, roots
and such as closed. I probably won't get there until
five point fifty five. We're just to meet for dinner
a five forty five. So I realize after I send
that text message I sent it to.

Speaker 1 (57:12):
The wrong mic.

Speaker 2 (57:13):
Of course you do so, right, so I so I
then I write back, sorry about that, Mike, my car
is glitching and sent the text to you by mistake.
Hope all is good with you, Figuring he'll see my number,
you'll know it's me. We haven't spoken in a while,
I obviously have dinner plans whatever. So he says sorry

(57:34):
to hear that the roads closed. I hope things are
fine otherwise, So I write back, Yeah, things are okay.
Just all of the roads are messed up around where
I'm trying to get to get to, so uh, I
need to get home and change and then go out
to dinner.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
But I'm happy to hear from you. So that's a win.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
I said, By the way, your family looks lovely on Facebook,
So he writes back, thanks, yours does too get home safely?

Speaker 1 (58:05):
So I go, thanks, Mike.

Speaker 2 (58:07):
And I found that weird because none of there's no
pictures of my family on my Facebook page.

Speaker 1 (58:13):
Oh I don't. I don't post pictures of my family.
So I'm like, huh, I guess he was being like
fake polite because I don't have any pictures. When was
the last time he spoke to this guy? Fifteen twenty
years ago? Now again maybe on Facebook? He comments on something,
I comment on something his, But like, you know, we
were good friends in high school, and then years later

(58:35):
we were roommates.

Speaker 2 (58:37):
He was at my wedding, he was at my wedding party.
You know, I made a few times and it's been
like twenty years whatever. So then, like I don't know,
five or six minutes go by and we had a
whole conversation about my family and house, everything going. He writes,
I'm trying to figure this out. Don't get insulted. But
who is texting me from this?

Speaker 1 (58:59):
Oh no, Now he didn't know who I was, but
I would like to just remind you, he said, sorry
to hear that. Hope things are good with you. Otherwise
your family looks great too. Blah blah blah. Get home safely. Yeah.
So he was carrying the conversation and realizes, you don't

(59:20):
know who I am. Did you say who you were?

Speaker 2 (59:23):
So he says, I'm apologizing in advance smiley face emoji.
So I said, I give you a clue. You know
me from Brooklyn? Scary, He gets three other people.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
I'm not you, not me, So I said we went
to school together, and he gets another guy. So I said,
I I'll give you one more clue, but if you
get this wrong, we're done. And I said I was
your roommate.

Speaker 2 (59:52):
We shared an apartment together, and I know he shared
an apartment with someone else from Brooklyn, but he didn't
go to school with them, so it's.

Speaker 1 (59:59):
Got to be me.

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
So finally he says, oh my god, David, I'm so sorry.
I'll save this number, you know, let's catch up and
have a drink. Blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
But the point was, rather than just go who is
who is this, he had a whole conversation. Well that's
human nature, right. I feel like I would do the
same thing. I would just try to figure it out.
I was just trying to figure it out, like, who
is this person? Now? The plot twist would have been
if he didn't guess that it was David Brody, right right,

(01:00:27):
the plot twist could have been that it wasn't even Mike,
that the number changed and it was somebody else, and
now now you're talking to some random stranger, right, yeah,
because you could have called that number and maybe there's
somebody just fucking with you and say, maybe it's like Janice,
you know, and like Janis is like, well, you know,

(01:00:47):
but what would if you didn't know who the person was,
what would you do? Would you just like play along
til you figured it out? Yeah? I think he was
trying to figure it out. I think he was trying
to get a clue, like me going, hey man, it's
been a while since I've seen you. My god, can
you believe it's been twenty years since we lived together.
It's more than that now, it's almost about yeah, it's
a long time. So I guess he was hoping I

(01:01:09):
would say something obvious. Yeah, well, he's just like the slide.
But the curiosity got the best of him because even
after the conversation was over and you were ready to
let it go, well because I signed off, okay, frozen,
because I signed off and he realized there would be
no more clues. Yeah, exactly. So it got the best
of him. He's like, I gotta know who this is.
So I'm just gonna fess up. That's that's hysterical, all right.

(01:01:32):
So I got one more phone story for you and then
we'll wrap it up. Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
So you said sometimes people get new phone numbers, or
if somebody gets a phone number that's not with somebody
else's at one point, right when you give up a
phone number, sometimes they become other people's phone numbers.

Speaker 1 (01:01:45):
This is true.

Speaker 2 (01:01:47):
So I have I don't know, maybe a dozen legitimate
celebrities and have their phone numbers, legitimate celebrities, and I
don't know, years later, if and Rique Glaci has changed
his number, I'm never gonna call.

Speaker 1 (01:02:03):
Him, but I'm not gonna delete it. I'm sure number,
I'm sure he changed it.

Speaker 2 (01:02:07):
I don't know, but in my mind, if I don't
ever call it, I still haven't rique Glacier's phone number. Okay,
so you know Joey Pantaliano is right, Yes, Joey Pants.

Speaker 1 (01:02:18):
Joey Pants, he was on The Sopranos and he's been
a lot of movies. He's been hundreds of movies.

Speaker 2 (01:02:24):
Well, he's in the new TV show on Marvel on
the Disney plus a new Marvel show called wonder Man,
and he's terrific in it. Sure, so a lot of
you know, I do a podcast called Marvel Movie Talk
where a bunch of us nerdy guys and women talk
about episodes and break them down and analyze them and
give opinions and review them. And so I said, hey,

(01:02:47):
you know what Joey Pants is in wonder Man.

Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
He was terrific. I have his phone number.

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
When he was the last time he was in See
one hundred, he was promoting his book back when I
worked there and I was the executive producer, and he said, hey.

Speaker 1 (01:03:00):
He loved beating you.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
He hugged me, he signed autographed the book for me,
and he said, hey, I love you guys.

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
If you ever need anything, here's my name. Here's my
phone number. Rather yea, and he.

Speaker 2 (01:03:12):
Goes, can you send me a CD an air check
of this show on CD? He gave me his home
address and I mailed him a copy of the air
check on a CD. And he said, if you ever
need anything, you call me.

Speaker 1 (01:03:23):
Oh boy, that's tempting, especially so when that's the offer
is put in front of your face right now. This
is scary.

Speaker 2 (01:03:31):
This has got to be seventeen eighteen years ago because
we were in Jersey City, so I know it was
before two thousand and eight.

Speaker 1 (01:03:36):
It's a long time ago. So I called the number
and it does, it does. Nobody answers, no voicemail.

Speaker 2 (01:03:44):
So I texted, I'm like, hey, Joey, listen, you met
me when you came up to see one hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:03:49):
My name is David.

Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
I was the executive producer of the morning show. I
don't say I'm not there anymore. I just go You met,
what you're up? You said, if I haven't need anything,
you'd be more than happy to do anything I needed.
We had a great time.

Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
Hugged me.

Speaker 2 (01:04:01):
You were wonderful and wonder man. I'm wondering if you'd
like to come on the podcast with us. We're recording tomorrow.
You'd be awesome. You were so good in the show.
I hope I'm not disturbing you. It's Super Bowl Sunday.
But you'll get back to me whenever.

Speaker 1 (01:04:15):
Scary.

Speaker 2 (01:04:16):
Within a minute, I get a text message back, this
is not his number. Stop fucking texting me.

Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
He is.

Speaker 2 (01:04:25):
This is my number now for a long time. So
I said, I'm so sorry. You must get people looking
for him all the time. They wrote back, for years,
people are still looking for Joey Pants.

Speaker 1 (01:04:36):
Apparently he gave his phone number to everybody, everybody, and.

Speaker 2 (01:04:39):
That's why he changed his number, because probably people like
me had his phone number and we're taken advantage.

Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
So now here's the thing. I have his home address.
Do I mail him a letter and ask him to
be on the podcast and tell him I don't have
your new number. Yeah, yeah, right, yeah, that's okay, that's fine.
So but this person, he's a famous person's phone number,
and they're not very happy about it. So it's funny

(01:05:05):
because the other day at the Super Bowl, Charlie Pooth
was singing the national anthem. I have his cell phone
number and we have communicated on text before. So I
was gonna be like, yo, break it late tonight, Charlie.
But I'm like, I don't want to be that guy. No,
you don't know him well enough for that. Nah. No,
or I was going to hit him back today or something,
be like yo, Charlie, it's scary, hope. You know it was.

(01:05:28):
You know, there's really no reason to do that, but
I I thought about it. Everyone was trying to everyone
at the party, like, yo, come on, text Pooth right now,
text him, call him. I'm like, no, he's on TV.

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
Singing, no, thank you. I'm not going to do that,
thank you. What's the guy's name? What's the guy's name?

a Grammy, wants something he wanted Tony yeah, and I
