Speaker 3 (06:00):
What I got? What we got? That's a three day
weekend all.

Speaker 1 (06:18):

Speaker 3 (06:20):

Speaker 5 (06:20):
Dog hug?

Speaker 3 (06:21):
What time Nathan's famous hot dog eating contest? What did

Speaker 1 (06:28):
You said?

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Goblin?

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeahlin, yes, you said goblin. Man.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
This is a special year because the rating champion, Patrick
Bertiletti from Chicago, is looking to defend his championship. We
also have a twenty one year old from Northwest Indiana,

(06:55):
Cameron me To participating from Northwest and the man we
know him so many eating records.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
He has the goat, the goat, the Glizzy goat the
gobblin himself.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
Joey Chestnut is making his return to the Hot dog
eating Contest.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
Oh the ante is high this year. Competitors are shaken
in their boots.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
He took last year off due to a sponsorship disagreement
at his own special.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Oh my god, what I'm time to be alive? I
watched one of those specials because it's not just about him, right,
don't They cover a few different people, And some of
these guys in the competitions, they don't get hungry anymore. Yeah,
like period, Like they've hurt themselves somehow to where they
don't get hungry because they've stretched out their stomach muscles.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
And where hunger comes from is when you're Tommy can
feel that it's like too empty, and so it's like, hey,
give me some food, but.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Like you just got a flapper in there. It's it's
just an empty bag. It's you know, a hot dog
down a hallway if you will. What I got some
basic rules for the competition here. Yes, contestants have ten
minutes to eat as many hot dogs and buns as possible.
Full full consumption required. The hot dog only counts if
both the dog and the bun are fully dispersed into

(08:26):
your stomach. Dunking is allowed. Yes, competitors can dip the
buns in water, the dogs and buns in water or
other liquids to make them easier to swallow. Swallers swaller,
and you have to have no visible food at the end.
At the end of ten minutes, your mouth has to
be completely clear. Oh here, hold on a little bonus.

(08:48):
If a contestant vomits, which is politely called a reversal
of fortune, they're automatically disqualified, so you can't puke.

Speaker 3 (08:56):
I was going to say, do they just subtract like
five dogs from that vomit? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Right, they can look at the ground and start doing the.

Speaker 5 (09:01):
Math one two three.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
So I guess we were talking about this earlier off
the air. What is the strategy? Do you chew? Do
you swallow?

Speaker 2 (09:12):
Do you have you?

Speaker 1 (09:13):
One of the girls that works on a different show
here in the building was in here earlier we were
talking about this. She claims that they don't chew at all.
She claims that they just go dog after dog after dog.
But you're gonna help you a bit.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
It's tough to now. I'm no specialist on this, but
you would choke on the dog.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
That's what I'm saying. I want to fill up. You
can't shove twenty dogs straight in. I mean you can,
there's only so much that's true.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
But also like it's gonna lie down once it hits
the stomach, and the acid's gonna start right in the stomach.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
So what it's gonna just start like they're gonna they're
gonna get to your stomach and they're gonna fall over
sideways and start stacking on top of each other. I
assume I don't know what I've always been told, you're
not it's supposed to use teeth. What what?

Speaker 3 (10:05):
Shout out to Joey returning to the hot dog eating contest,
to shout out to our local guys, including the raining
champion Patrick Hurtlady, minimum chewing.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Is essential to avoid choking, Ahassick.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
Five ish things you almost certainly need to know.

Speaker 5 (10:28):
All right, let's get to it. Let's Jurassic World Rebirth.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
Expecting to have a huge weekend at the box office,
primarily because of the holiday weekend that help, but projections
are already high for their to day came out yesterday
and through the weekend, expected to make nearly one hundred
and thirty million dollars for the seventh installment and Jurassic

(10:54):
Park series. So far, Jurassic Park has made over six
billi billion dollars world wide. We love dinosaurs, ladies, and.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Gentlemen, imagining like the underpaid people on that staff and
hearing those numbers seriously.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
A woman gets busted for littering and then gets in
more trouble because she threw the litter at a police cruiser.
The woman was caught throwing her burrito bowl onto the
street and then was asked to clean it up. Didn't
like that very much, so she threw it at the
officer's police cruiser and is now facing disorderly conduct and
battery to law enforcement.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
This thing where someone thinks it's okay to throw your
garbage into a street. We all have to live here
very much, Lord.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
Get excited about this. Chuck E Cheese is expanding to
adult arcades. Wait a minute, what kind of a Wait
a minute, no kids allowed.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Where I grew up in Portland, an adult arcade was
a whole different thing.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
Oh, a whole different time.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
A couple of hours or so.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Right now, they are in ten US malls where They
feature a ton of retro games like Donkey Kong, Mortal Kombat,
and misspac Man. There's gonna be throwback artwork and am
Atronic Host, which is terrifying. Yeah, just burn those to
the ground. And then they also have nostalgic prizes that
you can win. Not in Illinois just yet, but chuck
your cheese, sir, Charles E Tournament or Entertainment, right, cheez

(12:25):
Charles Entertainment Jeeves.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
I had it wrong.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
I'm sorry. His Christian name, his middle name is entertainment.

Speaker 5 (12:31):
Yeah, that his parents wrong.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Bring it to Illinois, to the beer and the wine,
to this arcade. That sounds amazing. No surprise. Travel is
going to be high this weekend, Yeah, everybody is a
lot of people.

Speaker 5 (12:45):
Are expected to hit the airwaves.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
American and United airlines are ramping up operations to handle
the big rush that they are anticipating, with more than
seventy two million Americans expected to travel this holiday season.

Speaker 5 (13:00):
Off the roads, you.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
Should leave before noon if you don't want to be
in traffic jams. Like if you leave after two.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
Your screws.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
Yeh, yeah, it's right away. It's going to be ninety
degrees by noon today Chris, so let's talk about it.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
Get out. Also, a beach in Connecticut is closed for
the rest of the summer because of ticks. Oh. Absolutely,
that's disgusting. While they work on remedying the issues, they
just had to close the beach, which fine, I don't
want to be there. I don't want to be involved
with it. I don't We talked about bed bugs. I

(13:31):
can't imagine.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Ticks, sand tics, Like, why are there ticks on the beach?

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Usually in grass.

Speaker 5 (13:37):
There's multiple ticks species.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Oh do they have sands.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Found on islands. It's an Asian longhorn tick.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Oh my goodness. Yeah, God, I don't like a tick
with a long horn. I don't think it's even that long.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
It's like probably average size, like a triceratops.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
This is really ticking me off.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
We are, what twelve hours, let's call it fourteen hours
away from a three day weekend and oh yes, Oh
it's going to be absolutely amazing celebrating Fourth of July.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
Yeah, it's going to be hot this weekend.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
It is.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
We're going to need our firefighters, and I think that
we should support the firefighters, but I don't know, maybe
allowing them to have hot chicks on their trucks without
suspending them. Yeah, that's the thing that happens. I know
a New York City firefighter has been suspended after giving
a few hotties a firetruck joy ride.

Speaker 5 (14:37):
Mill Yeah like that.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
I don't hate it.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
An internal investigation found what's being called a quote growing
frat house culture within fd and why reports say the
Brooklyn fire truck excursion happened without authorization.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
Who's ever asked permission?

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Get authorization for that?

Speaker 5 (14:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (14:59):
A boss, I got four hotties downstairs. They want to
go around the block in the truck that we were good.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
No kidding, and concerns over.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
Safety and professionalism grew after pictures of the joy ride
were circulated online. Sources say that more firefighters could be
disciplined as well.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
They probably like that, did this look like like a
championship parade where you got the like the trucks out
and there's women and people on top of it and
the girls are maybe lifting their tops up like h
and why.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
I wouldn't know why they're so mad about it, because like,
as part of the community, the firefighters are.

Speaker 5 (15:32):
The most seen. They're always out.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
We had block parties the firefighters would come out with
the truck, open up the hydrant, and we got the
biggest water sprinkler on the block. It was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Also, is this not the same fire department that makes
those sexy calendars.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Great a promotional idea? Come on, we can't like de
sparse with our sexiness.

Speaker 5 (15:55):
I also want to know how hot these women were.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah, do we have pictures? Well, there's videos and pictures.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Right, they were hot enough to be defined as hot.
I get that that was their descriptived.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
Yeah, you know, with the siren, let's go light it.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
Up fire hose, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
But it's like this, that's so weird because you feel
like that's such an innocent, novel thing to be like, Hey,
I'm going to show you how to fire truck work.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
It's probably some weird rule that you can't have the
truck out on the street when you're not in some
sort of emergency situation. Blah blah blah. It's probably some technicality,
because you're right, really, what is the big deal? Yeah, legit,
there's none.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
And also, firefighters are the least controversial like government workers.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
They just say yeah, they just say they fight. By
the way, who else wants to fight a fight, not me,
not me doing no fires win.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
I mean, it turns out humans very flammable. If you
are standing in front of a fire exit and you
are flammable, you are technically not blocking that fire exit.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
No Rock ninety five five, Chicago's Rock station, A big weekend,
Happy Fourth of July. Till you get out, stay safe,
have fun. We are the Morning marsh Pit. My name
is Michael, my name is Maria Palmer.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
And sometimes when they don't do fireworks, they do those drones.
You ever see those jes a nice there's a lot
of them. Sure would be terrible. There's like a drone
army that got used against us inevitable human facts.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Im on walls from the front of the inevitable. But
we're not talking about that one. That'd be too But
like look up at the sky and you're like, oh,
it's a really cool design.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
Fire Yeah, not great, but we're not quite well. We
probably are there yet, but the military would never let
us know. But where we are. In Indonesia, they've rolled
out twenty five new robot police officers that look like
real life robocops to help fight crime, especially during drugs smuggling.

Speaker 5 (18:07):
Here we go.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
Yeah, they are complete with police uniforms and black berets.
The humanoid robots can do many jobs that human officers do.
They can diffuse bombs. See that makes sense. That's that
makes a lot of sense to me. I do help
negotiate during hostage situations.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
It sounds like PKI right there.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
I wonder if negotiators could just talk through them, so
you could walk them up to whatever and then talk
through them.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
That makes sense, and carry out search and rescue missions.
This also makes sense. The robots also work with facial
recognition and can watch for traffic violations.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
See that's where you can get wrecked. That's where you
can have yourself. So what they're scanning everyone's face? Just
what if there's a murderer that they're they're looking for
and he and he scans face, doesn't find it, then
they'll try him and a jury will find him innocent.
So whatever.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Indonesia has some of the world's strictest anti drug laws,
so the's robots will likely help with that fight. Yeom
they're twenty twenty five to twenty forty five strategic plan
includes money for robot dogs starting in twenty twenty six.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
Oh man, when you hear we're gonna let the dog loose,
and you know it's a robot dog, I'm not gonna
get tired. Regular dogs are bad enough.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Those scary, I know, but regular dogs at least like
fatigue or like feel pain.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
Well, you could lose your battery, that's true, glitch could glitch,
but it's a four day battery.

Speaker 5 (19:33):
Solar power.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yeah, you think they're not going to think about this.
It's not going to let the little dog just run
out of energy.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
Back up, wait until they figure out lunar power in
any of vampire robodogs.

Speaker 5 (19:44):
I don't like what you just said at all.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Any of this future scary truly. It's how they get you. Weirdly,
my Siri just turned on.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
I don't like that.

Speaker 5 (19:55):
Starbucks.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
No, I do that myself. I don't need Siri do
it for me. Mine's trying to order Starbucks now, Marison.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
I feel like I don't even really need to spin
this one.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
We've just heard how they get us.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
They're tracking our faces with robots, so they're going to
win the inevitable human versus robot war.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
This was snooze from the front of the Inevitable human
robot war.

Speaker 3 (20:21):
It is the morning march pit on rock ninety five
to five. Our favorite rooster, he goes by the name Rocky,
and he's going to have your next chance at one
thousand dollars in about an hour. So be waiting on
that keyword. Yep, what did you do?

Speaker 1 (20:35):
What just happened over there? I'm editing nothing. I bought
my space bar. I'm working on something on my computer
when we're off the air. But I bought my space
bar and it made a little sound. It sounded a
little bit like a rooster calls we want to do sorry,
we can.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Well, we're not going to do is sit here and
claim that we have the best roads and bridges in
the world. You know, not at all, but at least
we're not dealing with this. A new rail overpass in
Indio is built to cut long weights at rail crossings,
but it's design includes an almost right angle turn that
drivers would have to take high above the ground, and

(21:13):
photos of it have gone viral.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
We'll put them up on our story that morning.

Speaker 3 (21:16):
Clarify stuff. It's not like the s turn on Lake
Shore Drive.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
No, No, it's like almost all right. Oh, it's a
sharp yeah, yeah, oh from my where I saw it,
look ninety degrees. Like literally, it's probably like ninety one,
you know, maybe ninety two.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
There's like a little bit of a slant, but not
enough to be safe.

Speaker 5 (21:38):
Is that?

Speaker 3 (21:39):
It's like, how do you even turn in something like that?

Speaker 1 (21:43):
You don't? I think I could just go off?

Speaker 2 (21:45):
Yeah, I think you just die. The investigators found series
planning blunders no kidding in the two point three million
dollars overpass and suspended seven engineers, including two chiefs.

Speaker 3 (21:59):
Suspended.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
That's well.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
They blacklisted both the builder and the design consultant.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Very good. Wow. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Luckily it never opened to traffic, thank god, because they
looked at it and they were like, hey, this isn't
now cars.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
Work Realistically, it looks like a really good walkway, a
great way, not.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
For cars, not for cars. And also they're gonna spun
two point there a million on a walkway.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
You know.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
It's like the corner so tight that you almost would
have to stop to turn. Yeah, if there was multiple
cars you have to. But it's just wild to see
it's still too sharp for just like a turn, That's
what I'm saying, Like, it's crazy. How yet they get
it almost all the way built before someone was like,
what are you guys doing over here?

Speaker 3 (22:41):
Yeah, anybody else buildings like this isn't gonna work if.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
You're in that far left lane and trying to make
that because it's a left turn and trying to make
that turn, you would have to have your car in
that other exact right the lane right to you while
you're doing it.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
So that's not gonna work. Excuse me, just a NASCAR
reference when they get next to each other and rub
because they're it's too tight and they do that. Yeah, rub,
I'm just excited and we can tell hashtag jiffy loub
what I'm saying. I'm gonna put a picture of it
up on Instagram right now, so if you want to

(23:18):
see what we're talking about.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
There we go that morning mosh pit.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Sorry, sorry, no.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
It's fine. We were on the same page. Cool, we're
working at it together.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Oh you know Rock ninety five to five c h
I podcast. Mister Noah All.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
Is Dave Navarro. That is who Anthony Ketos of Ward
How Chili Peppers is singing about in the birds that
he is talking about? Who wants to share his lonely
view with those were inspired by birds that he saw
when he was singing outside of Flea's house.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Huh yeah, Actually it's kind of cool. Fun facts on
the morning Moss Pit.

Speaker 5 (23:52):
I love it anyway, my facts.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
We got some rock news to get to here, yeah,
we do. We had some fun rock news here in
a minute, a little Oasis, Liam from Oasis taking a
shot at Green Day. But first two days away from
the big Ozzie live stream. Back to the beginning is
the name of the show. You can stream it online.
All the bands playing. It's twenty nine ninety nine.

Speaker 5 (24:14):
Woo boy. That's pretty spendy, right.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
Although if it's a long show, you get to see
all the biggest artists in rock, from Tool to Metallic,
I mean everybody get there.

Speaker 5 (24:24):
Two songs out of yeah Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
And when they did the Taylor Hawkins stream, which was beautiful,
well done, I didn't see it, so it was very
well done and I loved every artist who performed in it.
That downtime was what got medeah. They didn't prop and
something in an oversight. When they're doing the set change.

(24:47):
You need two separate stages. You gotta have somebody up
there talking, a video, running a something for the stream. Specifically,
or even for the people that are there. Yeah, that's
my only, that's only if I'm to spend twenty thirty
dollars on this, have it tight.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
I better not be sitting in the dead air.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
Yeah, keep it tight, Maris, it's thirty dollars.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
Goodness, you're asking a lot. So yes, back to the beginning.
Dot com is where you stream at July fifth, and
it will be available for forty eight hours once you
buy the stream. Jesus, so you don't get even keep it.
It disappears after forty eight hours. I mean, I'm okay
with it disappearing, but just make sure it's good to go.
My problem is I'll get it just like my hell
afresh and then I won't cook it and it'll go away. Now,

(25:31):
this is fun. Green Day was on stage, and if
you've seen Green Day, they do this a lot of
their shows. They bring someone on stage to play with them. Yeah,
lots of times. It's one of the easier songs, the
long View or something. No no no no no no
no no no no. Yeah, but this time it was
a time of your life. Okay, to dam you gotta
be able to play guitar a little bit, Yeah, a
kid came up, claimed he could play it and didn't
started playing Oasis Wonderwall and Billy Joe wasn't having it.

Speaker 5 (25:55):
Yeah, no, here's a little audience.

Speaker 1 (25:58):
It's gonna be good. Just whenever momentary on your kids.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
And you can't see, but like Billydo takes the guitar
back and then the kid just kind of stands there
and they have to have.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
A stage tad come like get home and be.

Speaker 5 (26:19):
Like now you.

Speaker 3 (26:21):
Can be heard saying nice try at the crowd after
they get the kid off the stage, which ballsy, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
Funny, funny, but also you did cut your own moment short.

Speaker 5 (26:31):
Yeah that kind of sucks.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
But yeah, and don't say you can play a song.
If you can't, you're gonna get up there and look
like a dummy.

Speaker 3 (26:36):
Or if you really want to do it right, go
into longview and then switch to wonder Wall.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yeah, well as you would expect. Liam Gallagher from Oasis
says responded, went to the actual post on green Day's
page and wrote, quote, best song of the night. Hilarious.
This is a great response.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
I don an Oasis guy, but that's a that's funny.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
I like that a lot from them. That's funny. That
makes it fun.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
They're strolling has gotten even better. I think they're in
better mental spots. They feel like they're having fun out
there versus like being tortured by their mind a little bit. Well,
that's funny. How long does it from.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
The last tour that they tried to do, like besides decades?

Speaker 2 (27:21):
I was gonna say, like twenty years or something like
that Green Day at right fest fun I.

Speaker 1 (27:27):
Hope they played Wonderball. You would, Yeah, I did.

Speaker 3 (27:32):

Speaker 2 (27:50):
I watch it, but like instead of sitting and watching
the whole thing, I'm gotta watch clips on TikTok fifteen
second bits at a time.

Speaker 5 (28:00):
Now, here's a bit only plug there plug it, yes,
that time.

Speaker 3 (28:07):

White Sox game? Do I want to call this a
statue unveiling? Or do we want to call it Michael's birthday, right,
great Field.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I'll be honest, I'm feeling a little better about the birthday.
Is the card?

Speaker 3 (28:22):
It is?

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Steve got me a card this morning. It was such
a nice thing. It was just such a nice gesture
that I'm like, you know what, maybe it's okay to
be older and birthday. Yeah, you're also, by the way,
not old. It's your first birthday.

Speaker 5 (28:32):
My knees say differently.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
What else to stop getting on them so much?

Speaker 5 (28:37):
Jesus, guys, that's a good joke.

of Michael's birthday.

This is you.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Could you imagine if Chad Krueger and Scott Staff did
a song together.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
Holy what vocal performances would bring the world peace?

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Well, I think that.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Actually would probably cause chaos in like a tear in
the space time fabric.

Speaker 3 (29:24):

I would consider us the devil's reject mush pit. Indeed,
Lucy we Are, I would never reject you. Guys, a
little news real quick. There is no fireworks show for
the city of Chicago on July fourth. Is this your
four first Fourth of July year? There isn't, and yet
there is because the.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
Entire city, yeah, putting off fireworks. Here's I don't know
if you have Fourth of July plans, but this was
the best Fourth July I experienced in this city. Is
I went to a rooftop like patio, sipped drinks and
you can and where I was sixty, Yeah, you could
see the three sixty and literally all around the city

(30:58):
there are fireworks going on.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Suburbs of fireworks. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (31:02):
So when I was.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
In high school, my friends we'd all get together, get
like a big cooler of food, and then just go
lock in. It was either at Wheaton or the Naperville
fireworks and like you know how like there's those big
grassy medians before you get.

Speaker 5 (31:16):
To the road.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
We would just spot up there with like blankets and
chairs and stay there for hours.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
So the fireworks went off.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
But if I'm in the city, because here's the deal,
getting around the city this weekend's gonna be a little tough.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
Don't do it.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
Yeah, just find a rooftop.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
Literally, just find a rooftop, bring you a girl. It's very romantic.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Yeah, yeah, that's sounds cool. Do you guys ever have
any fireworks stories? Did you do anything with fireworks? I
mean we used to.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Play with them, and me and my brothers and my
dad and my mom would go pretty hard.

Speaker 3 (31:42):
My uncle was always big on going to Indiana and
bringing back a hole. Yes, and then he had a
really big yard that didn't have any trees, and I
remember we got to a point and he's like, oh, yeah,
go ahead and shoot them off. I'm gonna go inside
and use the bathroom. That was the one time he
should have been there. I loaded it, set it in
the sand in the bottle, and I don't know what

(32:04):
angle that firework took. It went parallel to the yard
and didn't go up and the neighbors. It was a
long yard. It was a very long yard, but it
hit the prairie path and then went right in front
of somebody's house.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
And I was like, wasn't.

Speaker 5 (32:21):
It's great.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
Responsibly, We're doing a great job.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
The house is on fire.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
You know those poppets. Okay, so we had Did you
guys ever have cap guns?

Speaker 3 (32:32):
No?

Speaker 1 (32:33):
Yeah, I never had them, but my friends did.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
So, like we'd have caps and then sometimes we would
put those poppets in where you would put like the
little cap bullet thing.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
Mikey, It's okay. I got excited for a second because
I brought poppets into the studio. Yes you did. They
are yeah, yeah, we would.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
Sometimes we would put those on our like guns and
have like extra loud like shots fired, is what it
would sound like. We didn't mess with the legal fireworks
until I was older, but there was one There was
one summer. We don't talk about this going anymore, but me,
our brother, and my brother his best friend, and then
like our whole family and our family friends were out

(33:13):
and it's just two air defense artillery guys setting off
illegal fireworks over the Chesapeake Bay and you may be
a little bit into the chisenburg Burg.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
It was phenomenal.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
There was like a cop boat that drove by and
just didn't say anything to us.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
They're like whatever.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Two words Indian reservation. In Washington State where I grew up,
we had Indian reservations and like they made super crazy
laws about fireworks. They're kind of like here but in
the middle of the state if you drive a few hours,
you can get anything you want. I mean, you can
get sticks of dynamite if you want. Crazy thing.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
When I first went out to one of these, there's
all the booths set up where you can get these
crazy fireworks. Then there's an area right next to them.
I'm not even kidding, a small field right next to
them where everybody he is just lighting off fireworks. There's
three year old kids going out there lighting off fireworks
and their bombs. Like I remember when I felt unsafe
being there.

Speaker 5 (34:09):

Speaker 1 (36:56):

Speaker 5 (37:36):
Yeah, I like seem well.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
I mean we have riot Fest, which I would argue

considered a pickle?

Speaker 5 (37:54):
I'm gonna give you options here.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
A be made in the state, b have a garlic scent,

four hours.

Speaker 5 (38:08):
Be d as in dog.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
Yes, no, this is interesting. Oh yeah, hold up, yeah
it has to be. It has to bounce when dropped.
Oh wow, that sounds sad. That's weird.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
I feel like vinegaring, like pickling makes a lot more sense.
So it is a bouncy ball of pickle, then pickled.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
I just wonder if they're on a production line as
it's going down, are they like bounce in bounce?

Speaker 2 (38:37):
Some maker got one mushy pickle one time, ticked about it?

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Bounce my pickle?

Speaker 5 (39:01):
Do you want to use your hostage?

Speaker 3 (39:04):
Yeah, yeah, you can't do that.

Speaker 1 (39:06):
That would be Charles Entertainment Cheese.

Speaker 5 (39:08):
M a alright list.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
When you are helping raise a child and you find
out that Chuck e Cheese serves alcohol, you spend a.

Speaker 1 (39:20):

Chucky grew up, mister Entertainment Cheese to.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
You, Zach, you got one more to get these tickets.

Speaker 5 (39:34):
Let's hit a question for all right.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
What social media platform let you customize your profile with
glittery backgrounds, auto play music, and the infamous top eight
friends list? Because that's what.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
It is, I must say hostage.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
I only got shot once.

Speaker 3 (39:59):
I'll say this made me feel smart because I felt
like I was programming my page and I was putting
the code in for everything specifically.

Speaker 1 (40:07):
Yeah, one of those skills made a million bucks. Yeah,
you learn to do that stuff, and they turned it
into a career.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
So many bands got discovered on MySpace. It was a
very unique social media platform. We're never going to see that, right.

Speaker 1 (40:20):
We miss you?

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Yes, yeah, but Zach, most importantly, you're going to the
summer of low Parkway Drive, Kill, Switch, Engage, I Prevail,

excited about it. I'm more excited that I've been in
a long time. Yeah. I love me some car racing.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
I like the.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
Smell of tires, like the noise. And if you are
downtown Chicago, this weekend. That's what I saw. Some tourists
yesterday were very confused why they couldn't get to the fountain.
You're gonna have to have tickets to get down there.
You can't just walk to the fountain. It's pretty much
shut down. There's pretty much shut down altogether right now.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
Yeah, yeah, because they have southbound traffic on Lake Shore
Drive shutdown so they can finish setting up.

Speaker 5 (41:49):
And yeah, if.

Speaker 3 (41:50):
You're getting around the city this weekend, walk tivy, train, bus,
and I.

Speaker 5 (41:56):
Would don't do Michigan Avenue if you're gonna drive.

Speaker 1 (41:59):
Yeah, askar. Chicago Street Race is this weekend and it's
going on Saturday and Sunday. What I would recommend because
there is now rain in the forecast, just like the

question on Rock ninety five to five.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
The hell's hard, this damn fire.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
No one's diving responsibility, and it just keeps singing about it,
which is in and of itself suspicious.

Anyway, what are we doing, spores? Oh goodie, got some
sports news too. Cubs won last night, beating the Guardians
at earned the win allowing three solo homers. Uh. The
Cubs trailed three and o, but rallied with two runs

Blackhawks making moves in NHL free agency. The black Hawks
reacquired forward Sam Lafferty via trade, which is great. He's

Day pulled a fan on stage to play another turning

(50:28):
poorer un four second in the road time of your
life and they came up on stage and actually just
started playing an Oasis song, and Liam Gallagher from Oasis
responded on social media with best song they have, that's
so funny. This is funny, best song the night, the
best song right now. Bob for Bob says, go Oasis.
I don't like green Day. I am an American idiot,
all right. A listener from the two to one says,

(50:50):
it's only acceptable song to play, The only acceptable song
to play when you get called up on stage is
never going to give you up? Rick Astley nice and
I think green Day would would respect for that.

When my friends and I were teenagers, we were talking
about firework issues, earlier situations where we blew things up.
When my friends and I were teenagers, we would take
mortars to a baseball diamond like them and pitch to
each other. Awesome, that's awesome. Wait were we pitching? Were
we hitting two? I assume so you throw it like

(51:32):
a ball and then you've got to hit it and
if you don't, it blows up behind you. Awesome, Hey,
is there a nope?

Speaker 3 (51:38):
All right, don't you dare? We need you here?

Speaker 1 (51:54):
From the seven to twenty twenty, when everything was canceled,
people in my complex were doing their own fireworks. Ones
boomed into a dry bush, caught fire instantly my wife.
As my wife was calling nine to one one, the
fire truck pulled up on patrol, put it out and
then drove off like it was GTA.

Speaker 5 (52:09):
Next, that's amazing.

Speaker 1 (52:12):
The next one, and finally from the three two one.
David from Schomberg here. I used to celebrate the fourth
at Grandma's in Texas, where everything is legal everything. I
remember when I was fifteen, my buddy and I went
and got some of the mortar shells the size of
your fist, and that would lighten the big tube. We
would take turns, one lighting and one throwing them as
far as we could off the dock over the bayou.

(52:33):
It was all fun and games until one flew straight
back at us and went off right under the dock.
Oh no, that was a quiet walk back to the house. Wow.
Well you see these videos that are online now of
like the mortar cannon tips over, Yeah, and like shoots
it into someone's garage or something. Honey, the neighbors will

Speaker 1 (53:37):
Yeah, Euro. I've said gyro my whole life.

Speaker 3 (53:39):
You know.

Speaker 2 (53:40):
I when I was in high school, there was a
place right across from it that we would all get lunch,
like right after school, and they had euros. But it
was a group of women from a country in East Asia.
I honestly could not tell you which which is not
good for me? But they you couldn't say euro because
they had no idea what you were saying, because English
and of itself wasn't there first language, let alone Greek pronunciations.

Speaker 1 (54:02):
So you literally had to pronounce it gyro. My eye
twitch every time I'm going.

Speaker 2 (54:09):
There in Maryland, and they had a road trip for
a subpar euro that you have to pronounce gyro.

Speaker 5 (54:17):
It's all about the tazeki sauce for me. Oh yeah,
to say, do.

little thing and then it's just so juicy, and the
pita and then you get a fresh tomato. Oh. And
then I went to one spot they had the onions
and they're so crisp and perfect.

Speaker 5 (54:43):
