Hello, Killy Nash Show. Itis tomorrow show today TGIF getting into a
long weekend. Everybody on the roadapparently according to Triple A. Maybe we'll
talk about that. I mean,it's, according to Triple A, the
busiest I believe, Memorial Day weekendtravel ever. And now they've only been
keeping records since two thousand, sothe last twenty four years. But I
(00:25):
imagine it'd be hard to beat whatwas going on. I mean, because
just the population continues to grow,so probably this will be the most people
ever on the highways for a MemorialLy weekend. Who's already out, who's
getting a start, who's leaving tonight? Yeah, I mean it's ten o'clock
on Thursday week We're good. Havepeople getting out of the office today and
heading out. They could be listeningto the podcast right now, heading out
(00:48):
of town and where y'all going,what y'all going to do? And they
talk about it like how far doyou have to travel a minimum of fifty
miles to be considered in that,Yes, it's fifty. That doesn't even
seen that far. I think I'mgoing fifty you know, I'm going from
where I live and yeah, I'mgoing from my house in northeast Columbia.
On Saturday, I'll be driving toGilbert by God, South Carolina. There
(01:14):
you go to go to a partyat the lake. So that's probably about
fifty miles. Takes about an hourand fifteen minutes to get to this person's
house. I'm like, you're noteven in like the same area code anymore.
Well, it's just on the otherside of Lexington, down a dirt
(01:34):
road. And yeah, yeah,I'm gonna be going to Saluta. So
that's right at forty seven miles.You're almost in the survey. I'm almost
in the survey. All right,I'll drive the Saluta proper and circle around
there you go. Hey, wejust added we put one more on the
pile. Jelly Roll was asked whathis most frivolous habit is, you know,
(01:57):
and we we like to add people, especially right after they get rich
and famous. Yeah, what isit? The buying sports cars? Are
you? You know, home shopping? Now? Do you're trying to put
some sort of crazy together? Iwould do if I had Jelly Roll money
beginning tomorrow, it probably will besomething with an automobile. No, sir,
(02:27):
he almost went Sinatra almost really,now, I and I don't know
this to be true. I've heardof two frivolous things that Sinatra did regularly,
don't know if they're true. OneI heard from a bartender at the
casinos in Connecticut, mohegan Son.I believe it was is where I saw
(02:47):
Sinatra play in nineteen ninety four.And I went back to Mohegan Sun around
two thousand and I mentioned to thebartender at the we were having lunch there.
But the head of bartender and Isaid, I haven't been here since
I saw Sinatra place six seven yearsago. He said, I worked that
night, and I worked that wholeweek that Sinatra was here. Sinatra had
(03:10):
his own Jack Daniels delivered to thebar, and he only wanted the first
poor of every bottle. He said, do whatever you want with it after
you open it. I just wantthat first poor. That's the best poor
in a bottle of Jack Daney.Really don't know if that's true. Heard
it from that guy. The otherthing that I heard about Sinatra he never
(03:30):
wore the same underpants twice. Wereno need to wash them, get rid
of them. Jelly Roll says,quote, don't judge me for this,
y'all. I promise. I grewup very humble, but I only wear
socks once. Now I buy himin bulk. It is the most frivolous
(03:53):
thing that I've done with my success. I hope I'm not letting anybody down
with this. But when you're fat, when that is foul, you can't
have stinky feet too, So yougotta have fresh socks. You can't just
wash them clean. I mean,wouldn't they be clean? I would think.
(04:13):
I don't know, I don't evenunderstand the logic. I don't understand
why you would think I'm just gonnathrow these away because I've worn them.
What I mean, it's not likeJelly Roll is doing his own laundry.
At this level. There's somebody takingcare of that, so it wouldn't even
(04:35):
be a burden. Like you're notgonna wash them, you're not gonna put
them in the dryer, you're notgonna fold them, you're not gonna put
them back in the drawer. That'sall handled for you and he and apparently
he does wear the same underpants,but he does not like to wear the
same socks twice. I don't evenknow how you'd come up with that as
a as a thing to do,like for me, like if I was
(04:58):
to just stick in that sock genre. The most frivolous thing for me is
I do buy. Now, Ihaven't bought any in two years, but
I do buy very well, Ishould say, very expensive in the SoC
category. They're very expensive socks.I think they're called Belagia socks, and
(05:18):
they cost probably twelve to fifteen dollarsa pair. You might get it some
as high as twenty. They setthem down here at like the Runners what's
that running store strictly running or whateverthat's I think the first pair I ever
bought was there, and I waslike, my gosh, these things are
(05:39):
soft. Wow. Maybe I see, Maybe I would if I ever wore
a pair of those, But Iwent through a buying phase. These are
the athletic socks. These are notlike my dress socks. The athletic phase
of those socks. I probably boughtthem all within a two year period.
So I probably spent like three orfour hundred dollars on socks over two or
(06:00):
three year period. But I haven'tbought anymore since. See. I was
gonna say something with an automobile,but that wouldn't be frivolous in your life,
the most frivolous thing that you doright now? Not what would you
do? What? What is thefrivolous thing that you do? Wow?
(06:21):
Could it just be weekly trips toSaluta? A lot of people couldn't afford
that. I mean that probably runsyou just gas money. Well, I
don't take the truck. There's plentyof trucks there, so they don't need
another. No, I don't.I don't need to burn fourteen miles a
gallon in a truck, so Itake the Honda. Could it be eating
(06:46):
out at the level that you eatout at you like to go? Yeah,
that's that's what it would be.That's what it would be. I
would just I would. There's likeand they pop up all over the place,
and I'm like, wow, Like, I'm sure I'm gonna d I
passed a place today in Bitsburg.When I go to Salute, I'm gonna
stop at Chili's and get my dad'sto go order. He won't let me
(07:08):
come on Wednesdays because Sheili's setting openon Wednesdays. Oh, don't even bother.
No, I have to come ifyou can't Sundays, so certainly close
you have to. You have tocome on Sheeley's Days. So I'm going
today. But there's a place thereand I've forgotten the name of it now,
but the slugline is it ain't JoMama's potato. Now. I'm a
(07:29):
huge spud eater now, I likespuds, kind of like spuds like a
country boy's pizza. You can putanything on a spud and change the taste
of it entirely. If I owneda restaurant, I probably would would have
a spud bar. Really. Youknow, there's a place I've never been
to it on two Notch Road,and it's I think that's what they all
(07:50):
they sell is potatoes. Like tome, that seems like a crazy idea,
especially with everybody in the low carbphase. Now right, all you're
selling is car That's right. Giveme a big fat baked potato. I
can, I can? You know, put the put the crush on it.
You gotta roll it. Do youdo this to your potatoes? After
you make them in the oven?You go wrap them in aluminum foil and
(08:11):
then and then you roll it withlike a kitchen towel, and then you
crush it up like that surf.You just work it up and then you
cut in half and pop it open, and it's already kind of all missed
up inside, so it's easier forall the ingredients to get mixed up in
there. You love your potato,I do. I do You doing good
(08:31):
like a good open faced beef sandwich. It's the same thing. And you
take the alumino off. You're gonnado that and cut it all and then
lay it open and then just smotherit with stuff. I love that you
are good in the kitchen. Yougotta that's a country boy. I would
go there, but see, I'mstuck on chelies. I'm hung up on
Cheli's. I would make sure Igo to all the restaurants now, plainly
I'm not eating healthy no, soI'd have to go by myself because Sally
(08:56):
wouldn't go. That might be themost frivolous thing you do is just eat
what the hell it is you wantto. That's probably most of us.
I will spend money on quality food, not nutritious food, not necessarily quality
taste food, food that tastes goodfor timow. If you're a beef lover,
you know how expensive that is.It's out of control, crazy with
(09:18):
the beef prices. Yeah, andit's only getting worse, it seems.
I don't know if this is goodnews bad for us. It's good news,
I guess. If you're in yourthirties or twenties and are not really
happy right now, this might notbe something you want to hear. But
according to research, over twenty yearsof research, is said that the most
(09:41):
unhappy time in people's lives is theirforties. They're not depressed per se,
they just can't get happy. I'mreading this in the New York Post.
Diagnosis for most is the same,the most colloquliar way of saying it.
(10:01):
I'll just say stuff. They didn'tput stuff. Stuff gets real in your
forties, a changing sense of valuesin your twenties and thirties, your career
focused. During your forties, youstart realizing there's more to life. The
dreams that you had for your childrenare probably slipping away. You're realizing they're
(10:24):
not going to be the ballerina,they're not going to be the pro athlete.
I'm not going to be the yes, not going to be a doctor.
Possibly jobs, kids, friends,exercise. Everything is calling on you.
Everything is gnawing at you. Andif you let anyone down, you
lose the entire dream. The wholething is hinging on you to keep all
(10:48):
of these things. That's on whodid the stats of the study. That's
pretty close. So if you ifyou're in your forties right now, it
gets better fifty sixties. The happiestpeople are like in their seventies. Exactly.
You get past the point that noneof the scrap worked out because stuff
(11:09):
happens. Now you're okay with it. Cool. You got to work through
that. You got to push throughit. Brother, that's right. I
love talking to young people. Leetexted me yesterday he got a medical bill,
having an X ray or some type. He's like, what the hell
is going on with all these expensivebills. I'm like, one of the
things that's great about getting through thatpoint where stuff happens is now you're at
(11:31):
a point where because your kid didn'tplaying second base for the Yankees, he's
actually concerned about his budget. Ohyeah, So now you get to share
some actual productive or life lessons.You get to share some life lessons that
are applicable for their life well,and it's fun sharing lessons that don't encumber
you in any way. True,I've already been through that. I already
(11:52):
did that. I already had toeat peanut butter and jelly for a mark
because we had no money. Ialready did that. I did, what's
your turn. I'll be over hereout at the delfrescas enjoy it out while.
I just learned recently that my grandfatherafter he got to the point where
the farm was paid off, becausehe went through that in the Great Depression,
(12:13):
and they thought they were going tolose the farm, he never once
they got through that, he neverhad another piece of corn bread again.
Ever. Oh he was like,what's your name? And gone with the
wind. We can eat biscuits.I will never will. We can eat
flour biscuits. I've never eating.He never had another piece of corn bread.
You can take that and put itin the trash. And I've forgotten
(12:33):
what Dave Ramsey talks about. Henever had again. Really. He said
something about during his struggling years,beans or something. He lost it all,
you know something that they were.He said, I'll never eat it
again. Oh, yeah, Iate a ton of rice and beans when
I was not doing well. Yeah, you can buy cans of beans.
I don't know what they cost now, but back then it was you know,
sixty nine cents or something in abig box of rice, and sure
(12:58):
make a week's worth right there.Every day, I just pull out a
couple of scoops, put it ina tupperware thing, and that'll be breakfast.
That'll be lunch, and that'll bedinner. And if your kids don't
go through that, they never trulyappreciate what the hell they have. Oh
yeah, Oh I'm I'm I'm notthat far removed. Even though it's been
over twenty years from when I losteverything, I'm still not that far removed
(13:20):
that I legit appreciate the ability todrive a vehicle with an air conditioner that
worked. Like it's like I celebrateit. You know. It's only been
like twenty three years or whatever sinceI got into a vehicle that didn't have
an air conditioner that worked, andI couldn't do a damn thing about it.
(13:41):
And I was just sitting there inCharleston, South Carolina, sweating my
whatever off, And like it's onehundred and five. You've got a nineteen
eighty eight Mazda B twenty two hundredpicks right with rolled down windows and no
power steering, just driving this thingas a workout and there's nothing you can
do. You can't fix it,there's no money, so figure it out.
(14:05):
I don't think I've ever told youthat. The day I was where
I was living outside, just outsideof Charlotte, I was working in the
Charlotte I took the job because Iwanted to get out of the other job
desperately. The job paid nothing,but I took the job. And I
was going through the summertime and Iwas sitting in my rented house and I
was I was typing up what wasgoing to be a screenplay. I've still
(14:26):
got it somewhere. It's called MaritalArt was the name of the movie.
So I'm typing the and I've justordered I've saved all this money and I've
just ordered a one of the firstdata type typewriters where you type it and
you hit enter and you can seewhat you typed on the screen and then
it prints it yea yeah. Soand it stops working and it's German made.
(14:52):
And I called the company and I'mlike, what's up on my things?
Says, where are you calling from? I said, well, I'm
in Charlotte, North Carolina. What'sthe human level like there? Yeah,
it's it's humid. Yeah, wehave a problem with that machine with humidity.
What is there no humidity in Germany? We live in the Alps,
so and basically we're not going tohelp you at all. Yeah, that's
(15:15):
your fault. Now, I've justspent like three hundred dollars on the sidewriter
that won't work. I'm thinking aboutwhat I'm not going to eat for dinner,
and I remember saying to myself,I am dirt broke just outside of
Charlotte, North Carolina. I couldbe dirt broke anywhere in the world.
I could be dirt broke in Milan. I should just move to Milan.
(15:35):
There's homeless people in Milan. I'lljust sell whatever I've got right now and
fly to Milian and just go liveand be dirt broke in one of the
most beautiful cities in the world.I came within a NAT's ass of doing
it. We almost lost Jonathan Rushto Milan doing Liane. Who would ever
thought that that would be the secretlocale that he wanted to go to.
(15:56):
Imagine me fitting in in Milan.But when you're home this nobody has any
expectation level of you. But yeah, you got to go through it.
Anyway, We've got a morning Russellregular who says that his name, he
knows the neighbors, he's somewhat friendlywith the neighbors. And the other night
he I don't know how he cameabout this, but he's like the thirteen
(16:21):
year old son. I saw himdriving back in their in his dad's car
and sneaking back into the house.Should I tell the neighbors your kid is
sneaking out and stealing your car atnight? Boy, that's a tough one
because the Bible says don't grab thatdoll by it's ears. But if that
(16:42):
kid gets killed in an automobile accidentor kills somebody else, and you knew
this kid was doing this and youdidn't go tell the parents, Wow,
that's a tough one. Now.I wish I hadn't seen it. I
wish I didn't know now what Ididn't know then? Maybe it was a
(17:04):
one time thing. Maybe maybe youwalked up to the kid and go,
look, I saw you. I'mI'm up late at night. Usually if
you're gonna try that stuff, I'mgonna see it. So you better you
better steal a car. That's great. That's a tough one. Yeah,
(17:26):
okay, good, I like thata lot. Hey, what's going on
in your neighborhood. We should betalking about it. You almost moved the
Milan and I don't know why Iwas going to Milan just came to mind.
It sounds very exotic. I thinkI've been. I think I was
looking at a magazine where all thepretty models were, and they're always a
Milan. I thought I could gosee some of the pretty girls. I
could go, you know, liveon the street corner. Maybe one of
them will picked me up. Maybethey'd appreciate a Southern accident in Milan.
(17:48):
Maybe so I could have been thestick out here in Charlotte. That's great.
