Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Kelly Nash. Hey, it's Tomorrow Show today. You know,
I just thought about something that I can take heart
in given that a Morning mush irregular who you made
a high ranking official in the state of South Carolina,
Alan Wilson during Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas, he calls that
(00:23):
what again.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
It's cakes and pie season. And that's a reference to
I can't remember the name of the Eddie Murphy movie
but he played. Is it the one where he's talking
to the animals? I think that's the movie. I can't
remember exactly, but he plays a bunch of different characters,
and one of them is a morbidly obese person. Yes,
(00:45):
And when the it's like it's time for dessert and
they get excited and they start clapping their hands and
he goes, whoo, cakes and pies, Cakes and pies. So
he's now turned that into a cakes and pie season.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Well, it's also a sports coats and jackets season. That
kind of covers up the little belly I'm starting to
put on here that Sally's complaining about.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Well, she doesn't always see you in a sports coat.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
I We'll be wearing sports coats and jackets.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Henceforth at all times.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
At all time. I go to pa javas on with
a sports it's a good look. Oh, I know everybody's
getting excited about a couple of days coming down. We've
got the South Carolina State Fair. Everybody's eating their weight
and elephant ears and the like.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yes, and we'd like to get you in to eat
your weight, and well, we're not going to pay for
the food, but we'll get you the free admission passes
and we'll get you the two ride vouchers. So it's
four tickets in two ride vouchures. That's called a harvest bundle.
What you're talking about tomorrow morning? The word of the
day is I think it's pronounced pangin drum. Pangin drum,
(01:59):
pam j A n d r u M.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Not a clue.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
You're not gonna make up a word for pangin drunk.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Can make up one.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Yeah, you're usually good at making up stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Okay, the pangin drum. Originally this was the skit on
Saturday Night Live that features one of Kelly's favorite actors
with the cowbill.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Oh Christopher.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
So it was going to be about the kanjin drum,
which is a little used much like a cowbill, but
it's not used so much on this continent as much
as South Africa. It's an African originated cow bell type
musical instrument.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
You know, I liked where you're going. I thought to
me it would feel like Pangin drum. That pangin would
feel more like something from like India, the Panjin drum.
But either way, that's not what it is. It's someone
who thinks they're important. Oh, that's a basically an insult. Yes,
it is a pangin drum. That's a good one to
(02:59):
be to use in like a staff meeting. Yes, well,
let's let's listen to the Panngin drum.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Buddy, break out your your smartphones. You'll want to go
to your notes. You'll want to take notes on this.
Now we'll hear from the panda drum.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
You should probably video it and then and then you
could tweet it out a video of the wise words
about to be uttered by the pandin drum. Right anyway,
know that that word means someone who thinks they're important. Tomorrow,
and by the way, the entry is on the Morning
Rest blog and you can win about six thirties when
we're going to do that contest.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
And now that everybody's coming back into the office, that
in fact is a word you could use three times
tomorrow in your regular conversation. Make it part of your
vocabulary of the pangin drum.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
You know, Jonathan, you and I, well, I mean more
than you. I think struggle with sleep. And I have
for many, many years tried to figure out sleep hacks,
sleep tricks, sleep whatever. And one of the things that
I had heard from numerous reputable sources is that it's
(04:07):
far healthier to sleep on your back. If you can
sleep on your back, that is the way to go.
That's the way you were designed to sleep. I've always
had trouble sleeping on my back. I got what I
invested heavily. I bought one of those mattresses that you know,
like the like a hospital bed type of thing. Yep,
so it'll kind of you can get in like a
lazy the feet and the state. So you can do
(04:29):
that if you want. But even then, I still have
a hard time staying on my back. I just roll
over on my side.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I created something even years ago because I too wanted
to sleep on my back. This is probably twenty twenty
five years ago, and by chance. I had one of
those inflatable pool floats, okay, and one of the compartments,
you know, you get to blow up multiple compartments on those.
One of those compartments was the outside what do you
(04:56):
want to call it? You know, the area outside Scott,
What am I saying here? It will be the air
compartments on the outside. Okay.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
So this is just something to trap you in the
bed so you can't roll You.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Just blow those up. You don't blow up the ones
in the middle that would lift you from the center
of it, just keep you from rolling over. And I
put it on my bed and I would sleep in
that so I wouldn't roll over. I'd just be like
stuck in that thing.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
And that's brutal.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Well, it got uncomfortable because when you would roll over,
it would make a squeaky noise. Oh, so it would
wake me up and then you wake up on top
of exactly I should have continue that.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Thanks to an exhaustive study now at the Cleveland Clinic,
they have now announced that there is no good sleeping position.
One does not top any other. Sleeping on your stomach,
sleeping on your side, sleeping on your back, It's all
the same.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I always thought the water bed. I missed the waterbed,
by the way. I have one of those, and I
loved it.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
You're talking about those ones in the seventies where it
was like rocking in the ocean.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Well, I got the one with the baffles, so it
wasn't quite as bad. But the waterbed, I thought. I
sleep on the Sleep Number bed because it allows me
to adjust the firmness and the mattress, and I've got
it just set perfect at fifty eight. That's where I sleeps.
And you're no longer doing the endorsement. So that was free.
That's a freebie right now, you just heard. But I'll
never give up my Sleep Number bed.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
And we were paid to actually swap those out at
one point, but you didn't give it up.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
No.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I forget the store that we were supposed to do
that for.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
But no, I did not give it up.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I had a nice mattress from that company, the other one,
not sleep Sleep Number.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
I love my Sleep Number bed, but it helps me.
But you're right, but they're saying there is no good Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Doctor Nancy Foldovrey, Schaeffer sleep specialist, says that after years
of studying this, nope doesn't matter doesn't matter how you sleep.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Do you remember them all? They used to have these
massage beds that you would get in the bed.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I remember the chairs. I think they still have them.
I guess kind of fifty cents or a dollar.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Or well, this one you would actually be enclosed kind
of like a tanning bed, and it had water inside
the mattress on the top and the bottom, and then
the water pressure with.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
The water was on top of you too.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Yeah yeah yeah, so like you're like trapped on both
the bottles, yes, who And then that the pressure inside
would come across back and forth, back and forth, back
and forth, so you never get wet because it's all
it's the closed. But I've often wondered why we don't
have water beds that are new technology where you lie
in the water, because that would relieve all of the
stress off of your body because you're floating. I don't
(07:37):
I don't understand why the technology is not available yet.
Well maybe I should go home and work on that one.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
I know it Planet Fitness. I don't enjoy it as
much as others do. I'll sometimes opt for those massage
chairs that they have because I specifically like it when
they massage my calfs. I have very tight calves. But
they also do have a hydro massage bed. It doesn't
have the top part, but you just lay on it
and like you said, the water goes up and down
(08:05):
and it's warm and it feels nice. I've enjoyed those
as well, but I don't like them as much as
the massage chairs.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I think that, you know, I should combine the mattress
with these new tubs you see advertised for the elderly.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Oh, the ones you just walk in and then shut
the door door.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Yeah, because I sleep best in a pool with a
float under my arms. In my head, I can way
back like this and the rest of my body's just
hanging down. Takes all the pressure off your spine. That's
the best sleep I ever get.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
That's funny. When I went to London years ago, I
went on one of those tours of Ancient London or
whatever the hell they called it. You know, you could
see like Jack the Ripper, Oh yeah, yeah, like all
those things happened, and I think it was Jack the
Ripper who was like homeless. Basically, they didn't call them homeless,
(08:57):
they called them something else. Backless, yes, flatless, And so
there was apparently that was a big problem in his era.
And for whatever it was a pence, is that what
they got is that their money the pence. For a pence,
you could come into, you could come inside, you could
get out of the cold, and you could, but they
(09:20):
would force you. I think they the way, if I
remember right, you had to sit with your back against
the wall, and that's how you had to sleep in
order to jam as many people in as possible. And
so they put boards up or something like about the
length of somebody's legs, so you were going to be
shoulder to shoulder and there was going to be somebody
(09:40):
again two three feet in front of you because they
had those boards there as well. Or if you were
feeling rich that night and you wanted to luxuriate for
two pence, they hung a clothesline from one end of
the building to the other, and the guys would put
their they would get on their knees and they would
put their arm over the clothes line and it would
(10:02):
kind of like hit them in the chest, and that's
how they would sleep. And I never forgot that that
that's how people and that was considered to them like
an upgrade because they would be kind of hanging, kind
of similar to what you're talking about, Brot. Yeah, like
a clothes line, not a big one. That was the
upgrade for the poor folk of the day.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Okay, I'm not gonna complain anymore about not being able
to sleep in my sleep.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
By my thousand dollars mattress or.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Let's see.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Top holiday trends according to Edsy, as we get ready
for twenty twenty five, they're projecting they're looking at what
people are getting early and those types of things. Yep,
it says have a Nona holiday, channel your inner Italian
grandma with crocheted dollies, embroidered linens, red accents, and old
(11:00):
world lamp shades. Apparently this is quite the rage for
the youngsters, the twenty somethings. They never had this. They
know that you had it because they seen your photos
from when you were a child. So people who kind
of grew up in the sixties and the seventies in
the eighties, you had parents and or grandparents that had
(11:23):
this decor, and that feels awesome to them. They want that,
so they're buying it for themselves to roll out for
the holidays. They're also saying that and I love this idea,
which is weird to me because I'm not really much
for going to parties, but I like dinner parties. I
like the idea of like a group of like ten people.
(11:46):
And so one of my friends is in one of
these what are they call them supper clubs, where it's
like a group of ten people and you just rotate houses.
So every first Saturday of the month or something. They
say that that is really caught on with the twenty
somethings as well.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I'm just glad though they got their face outside of
staring at something at their phone, just talking to people. Yeah,
good for them. That's an encouraging sociological notation.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yeah, we have all of the holiday trends listed on
the Morning Rest blog at ninety seven five wcos dot com.
According to your great friends at wallet hub, O jeez,
they don't actually even talk about us.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
They actually have a Columbia office.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
But I can tell you that wallet hub definitely leans
pro California.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Oh they hate South Carolina.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, they well, they don't like the South per se,
and that's pretty obvious. Like when they look like they
usually like if it's education, well, if it's anything, it's
going to be pro California, but it's also going to
be pro New England, pro that sort of stuff. But
in this one, so again, it's usually rust belt and
(13:07):
or South Southern cities that are always going to get hammered.
Ten cities where people spend the most on groceries, and
the ten cities where people spend the least on groceries. Now,
if I just bring this to our attention, just because
I want to see Jonathan Rush's response, when I say
the number third city, this is number three in America.
(13:28):
This is the place where people spend the least amount
of money on groceries. Now, typically when you think least
on groceries, you're going to think probably near a farming
community because they have easy access to the food, most
of the produce there, and they also have lower incomes people,
so they're not going to go on out and buy
(13:50):
expensive things. They're not going to have huge grocery bills.
With that in mind, I present to you the top three.
Number one, these are the least expensive. This is where
they spend the least amount of groceries is Fremont, California,
Number two, San Jose, California, And at number three San Francisco.
(14:12):
We're to believe that the people who live in San
Francisco barely spend a penny on their groceries. Really, Number
four was Irvine, California. Number five, I don't know where Gilbert,
I know, all right, at.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
The bottom of the study, what is that based on?
What do they tell you that the ledger is based on? Here?
What were the lead They look at.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
The twenty six most common grocery items, and then they
see what states and cities charged the most and charge
the least. And they're saying food prices in San Francisco
just like an eighth of what you pay in Columbia.
It's so free. It's just free and easy over there.
But it's most expensive in Detroit. It's very expensive in Birmingham, Alabama.
(14:53):
It's very expensive in Memphis, Tennessee, where we're a bunch
of suckers in the South. But again, you just have
to pay, like photos gass.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
In any zip code in or near San Francisco, you
couldn't find a home cooked meal if you went door
to door with a damn twelve gage. Nobody in California cooks.
They all eat out and they pay way too much
for it. They go to the laundry and hang out
with people like Gavin Newsom and ask him how he
gets his hair so damn perfect. They don't do that
in the South. We go to the grocery store as
(15:28):
hunters and gatherers, and we're hunting. Excuse me, we're hunting
for the best buys because we spend a lot of
money at the grocery store because we go home and
we cook. That's my argument.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
But we overpay.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
No, we're just paying more because we're buying more. We
buy more.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
They're just saying that the items are more expensive here.
If you wanted to buy a pot roast in Columbia,
South Carolina, it'd be like ten times you got to
pay for it in San Francisco or Beverly Hills or
midtown Manhattan.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Well, I was as I was making up that argument.
I was thinking about even the neighborhood that we live in,
and Sally for all those years we had the kids
at the house and she cooked all those meals, God
bless her. And I started counting up the other day
how many meals my mom actually cooked for me as
a kid. Because my mom died about two years ago,
and I was thinking about her on a birthday two
days ago. How many meals did my mom prepare for
(16:21):
me every every year? Because she would cook three meals
a day. So in a big salute to moms who
are cooking the meals, because that's love on a plate.
You can't, you can't.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
That's the best. That is the best kind of love.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Especially if you got boys. Boys loved their mamas because
mama cooks the food.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Well, I hope that they do, but a lot of
kids think their moms were granted.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
As I was thinking about that, Sally I think was
the only real It was the only person on their
street who cooked like two meals a day. When I
say cooked, I mean she got up and fixed their
sandwiches to take to school and then we laid found out.
David in particular, never ate. I don't think any one
of the submarine sandwiches that your mom hand prepared and
(17:07):
put wrapped gently and put in your bag for you
to carry. He would sell that at school for like
five or seven dollars and then go buy some of
that cheap, zupid ass pizza they had in the cafeteria.
I was feeding some kid I don't even know who
he was.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Why you were feeding your son indirectly, he didn't have
the money for the pizza, which he preferred over his
mother's home cooks.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
So my entire argument just dissolved before my eyes. So
I will retract all my previews.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
They made an argument, and then you debuncture.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Women in the South, we don't cook anymore. This is
why restaurants are taking over the world, because nobody cooks.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Well, it's not even like well, I say, it's chain
restaurants and mostly drive through.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Mostly, Jonathan, I believe I'm pronouncing it right.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I should know it. I believe it's pronounced Utahville. It's
in orangebur County. Sure, Utahville has made the national news today.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Oh good, what happened?
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Yes, and for one of your favorite subjects.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Uh huh?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Monkeys?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Oh yeah, we got that monkey running around.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yes, according to the story here, now this is in
the USA today. Casey Hill is the town clerked out
there in Utahville. Was working at the Utahville Crappy Classic
and Fallfest Saturday when heard the buzz going on about
a spider monkey that was running a muck in Utahville. Well,
(18:27):
Casey then reached out to the mayor, Brandon Weatherford and
his wife Laura to launch an investigation, and they did
find that monkey after their investigation. And what Casey Hill
did was lured the monkey with a cup of coffee
on the ground. Apparently monkeys like coffee. Who would know that,
(18:50):
I wouldn't have. I would have never thought that. We've
been standing to throwing stuff to the monkeys. O Monkey
Island at Riverbank Zoo. When we need a little conveyor
belt and send them coffee. I didn't know this about love.
They get very excited. So I'd love to see him
all hopped up on caffeine. Oh that's a spider monkeyed
up on caffeine. He get us a mountain dew in there.
(19:12):
I'm all hopped up on mountain dew.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
And you can't mention mountain dew without thinking about Abraham.
We lost Abraham this week. It was a sad note
in camel history of the State of South Carolina.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
I don't know Abraham. You told me yesterday about Abraham,
but I wasn't aware.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Oh, Abraham's a kid favored. He's been at every presentation
except for I don't think he was ever in Dracula
Halloween of the Bite. He wasn't in that production. I
don't think he was any of the Columbia City Ballet productions,
but Abraham was always in Christmas pageants and the like
and crowd favorite of parades. I miss Abraham and you
(19:50):
miss Abraham. Yeah, everybody. I had a sixteen ounce mountain
dew in his honor of the other day. Because you'd
give him a mountain dew, He'd turned that thing up
and kill it. Of course he had a homp so
he could take in five or six, seven or eight.
Never slow down.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Did you pour a little out for your homie? You know,
that's what the rappers do. They take it like a
forty ounce.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
You know, I've forgotten to do that. That is part
of the rapper culture that I never really am fully embraced.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah, today, it's a good day for you to go
dump a little out for your homie, Abraham, my homie, Jonathan.
This is one of these issues where I think you
and I were too old to be a part of
this debate or this even this thought process. So morning
Russia regular, I'm just reading from his email. So I've
(20:40):
been out with this girl like four times now, and
typically when I've gone out with girls in the past,
they at least make the offer. Would you like me
to pay my share? Would you like me to cover
part of this?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
I used to love it when girls I do this and.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Maybe by the third day. But I've been out with
her four times and she's never even once reached for
the wallet or made an offer of any kind. Do
you think that she's taking advantage of me? Do you
think that this girl's only going out with me for
the free food? Do you think that if I said
to her, maybe, hey, maybe you could kind of cover
(21:21):
part of it this next time, we'll kind of find
out what kind of girl I'm really dealing with. Is
this girl a gold digger? How do I know this
guy knows nothing about women? Well? I think you and
I know nothing about the twenty twenty five women.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
All right, A couple of things to keep in mind here.
Number one, the woman wants you to take care of her.
That means feed her. I don't, but I don't remember
one of the things you have to do.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
He's saying. The women he's all dated have always by
the third date offered, Hey, do you want me to
pick up some of this? I never I mean I
dated women in the eighties and nineties I never had
that happen.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
I could think a few times, but I really they did.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
But apparently that's a common occurrence.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Because it gives me an opportunity to point out again,
I'm paying for your meal.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I am the man, I sweet you, I am in charge.
I have this.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yes. So, And it also helps you went over that
she needs to find ways to show her thankfulness.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Anyway, I wonder where that was going.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
Now. A couple of things. If by chance, you ever
see a woman wrapping up some of the incredible breadsticks
and olive garden, Let's say you're the olive garden who
doesn't love the bread sticks. Everybody loves the bread sticks. Okay,
so if you see her wrapping up some breadsticks and
then putting it in her purse or something like that,
and you know, look, you really need to make sure
you take this girl to dinner because she's not get
(22:49):
enough food.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
We're gonna swing by the Public's on the way home.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
Not a bad idea, get some muffins to go.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
But if I gave you fifty bucks, how would you
spend it?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
At this money? It's another story. I love the honey,
but is there a cool whipping a cat close So
if you have an opportunity when a woman says that
to you, you do have the opportunity to reiterate that
you know firmly and your position in this relationship. My
job is to care for you, your safety. You're in to
(23:20):
take your food.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
But to his point, he's not saying that he wants
her to pay for it. He's just upset that she's
never offered to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
I don't know how to process that because I never
had it happen in that often. And he's I mean,
this guy sounds looking for an independent woman. Is that
what it is? You're not going to be the man
of the relationship, You're not going to be the head
of the family when you have kids. What are you
showing her that she can just take control whenever she
wants to.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Well, first off, I think he's like twenty two, so
he's not looking to get married just yet. But I
think that what he's saying is you hear about some
women are just in a relationship for the money. They're
not really interested in you.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
That is a problem and it should be a serious
concern you look out for it. Maybe I'm missing the
boat because this is something going on which plainly the
women are already shooting the flair across the table and
for the money.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
He's saying. One of the ways to show that you're
not into it for just that is to just make
the offer that's, oh, this has been a great date.
Would you mind if I covered half of it? And
then you get to say no, no, no, look great, I've
got it. Listen, it's my honor to be out with you.
Don't worry about it. I got you. But she hasn't
said that. She just sits there. The check should be
(24:29):
going to him, let him pay for it.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
It'll be one check, He'll be taking it.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Yes, And so now he's kind of like, is this
a red flag?
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Now?
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Again? You and I are not in her twenties, So
I don't know. Maybe the youngsters and I shouldn't say people.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Very often the waiter I know by this, the waitress
or the waiter would look at her and say, are
you gonna beat just a one check? Or are you
gonna be taking up picking up your ass? That question
is never asked a.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
T are you kidding me?
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Well?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Maybe it's because my wife is black and I am white,
But that question is asked almost every time we go out,
shut the hell up? Are you? Is this one check
or two?
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Shut the hell up? Always ask they don't think you're
a couple.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
I guess not. Couldn't be. Look at hell, Look at
how ugly I am. Well, that's a good argument. She's hot.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
That's a good argument. Interesting. I like it. This is
opening up a whole new thought process for me because
I haven't been in this situation. I've never faced this
kind of scrutiny or or the pivotal moment, the dinner
with the date, because this is pivotal. Yeah, it's so good.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
So so anyway, tomorrow learns younger people hopefully or maybe
even just people who are in today's dating pool. I mean,
maybe it's different. My friend Torrian, he's gosh, he's pushing
fifty I think now, and he's like, he got divorced
a few years ago, and he's like, I can't believe
the women today. It's so much different. He's like, I
(25:54):
mean he was married from the time he's like twenty
five to like forty five, and he's like, it's a
completely different world. Really, Yeah, And he's talking about women
in this age group, like the forty five year old
women He's like, I can't believe these women today.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
I'm excited about learning more about this. All right, I
don't think experience this.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
No, you shouldn't, especially with even when Sally wouldn't like that. No, no, no,
your experiences.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I don't. Look, we come to the table. All I
got to know is what I want. Now, she'll tell
me what she wants to I and order it for her.
Oh is that how you guys? Do you guys kick
at old school that way? Yeah, when the lady will
have the lady was going the lady would like to
have the so and so and so and so and
what was the extra you wanted? Oh, three salads on
the side.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Yeah. So, so she'll tell you in front of the waiter.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
If I forget, I have to ask.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
That's hysterical.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Absolutely, And she'll tell me and then I say it
to him like he didn't hear it. Yeah. But the
only time that doesn't apply is at the very beginning
of the meal, like in particular we're with other people,
it's going to be like, you know, a table for
ten or whatever. Sally would say, Okay, we're going to
order the appetizers for the table. We want all of
them and just scatter them out, Oh oh yeah, so
(27:05):
we we haven't eaten yet. I've spent one hundred bucks
on appetime.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I'm one hundred deep.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
The only time I actually, you know, say the words
of what my wife wants is if we go to
the Starbucks drive through. That's like she'll tell me, tell
them I want the Moca lat iced or whatever it is,
and and then she wants the Mocha eye. What would
you like?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Write nothing? Nothing. Yeah, I'm not rich enough to I
just dream my bank account on that one.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Yeah. I don't make enough money for two coffees here.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
I actually walk up to the counter every time we
at Starbucks, is Sally where we standing there, and say
you have to order for yourself. I don't speak Starbucks. Yeah,
and she'll go into that long description of some kind of.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Oh so so she so she you don't place all
her orders?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
No, I do not. That's the only time I let
her run.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
That's the only time that I do place the order.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
I can't speak the language. I just sit in the
corner like an idiot. By the way, I got a
suggest it for Starbucks. Everybody who goes to Starbucks send
an email to corporate put some damn felt on the
bottom of those chairs. These new chairs they have meddle
part wood chairs and the brand new floors and Starbucks
or the tile, and you pull that chair back and
(28:16):
it sounds like kids in the school cafeteria. Great, I mean,
it's just it's just the most annoying thing ever. Wow,
And all these restaurants have this problem.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
I have not experienced this.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
If you start listening a couple of things going on
inside the eating industry. Number one, the chair scraping on
the floor. That's scott to damn stop. Number two, actually
have a ceiling. I know you think everybody thinks it
looks cool in him for the exposed roof on your
restaurant where you can see the air ducts and everything.
You're just too damn cheap to put in a fault
(28:51):
ceiling that helps with the sound so it doesn't sound
like we're sitting in the high school cafeteria. Again, I'm
eating with a bunch of middle schoolers. It's just too
damn loud.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
This doesn't sound like grumpy old man at all.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Hey, what kind of grumpy old man talk have you been? Law?
This is great? Hey, what are you talking about? What
we should be talking about. You tell us what's on
your mind. You can tell us how you and you
know how to reach out to us on social media.
You can do that and you can also email us.
I am Rush at ninety seven five WUS dot com.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Nation, ninety seven five whus dot com.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
You want this number eight oh three ninety seven eight
ninety two six seven Tomorrow morning, six thirty you get
a chance to win more than a hundred dollars for
the stuff for the South Carolina State Fair tickets and
ride vouchers tomorrow. Wanted to be Thank god it's Friday
in the morning, Rush
Hello, Kelly Nash. Hey, it's Tomorrow Show today. You know,
I just thought about something that I can take heart
in given that a Morning mush irregular who you made
a high ranking official in the state of South Carolina,
Alan Wilson during Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas, he calls that
(00:23):
what again.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
It's cakes and pie season. And that's a reference to
I can't remember the name of the Eddie Murphy movie
but he played. Is it the one where he's talking
to the animals? I think that's the movie. I can't
remember exactly, but he plays a bunch of different characters,
and one of them is a morbidly obese person. Yes,
(00:45):
And when the it's like it's time for dessert and
they get excited and they start clapping their hands and
he goes, whoo, cakes and pies, Cakes and pies. So
he's now turned that into a cakes and pie season.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Well, it's also a sports coats and jackets season. That
kind of covers up the little belly I'm starting to
put on here that Sally's complaining about.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Well, she doesn't always see you in a sports coat.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
I We'll be wearing sports coats and jackets.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Henceforth at all times.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
At all time. I go to pa javas on with
a sports it's a good look. Oh, I know everybody's
getting excited about a couple of days coming down. We've
got the South Carolina State Fair. Everybody's eating their weight
and elephant ears and the like.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yes, and we'd like to get you in to eat
your weight, and well, we're not going to pay for
the food, but we'll get you the free admission passes
and we'll get you the two ride vouchers. So it's
four tickets in two ride vouchures. That's called a harvest bundle.
What you're talking about tomorrow morning? The word of the
day is I think it's pronounced pangin drum. Pangin drum,
(01:59):
pam j A n d r u M.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Not a clue.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
You're not gonna make up a word for pangin drunk.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Can make up one.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Yeah, you're usually good at making up stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Okay, the pangin drum. Originally this was the skit on
Saturday Night Live that features one of Kelly's favorite actors
with the cowbill.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Oh Christopher.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
So it was going to be about the kanjin drum,
which is a little used much like a cowbill, but
it's not used so much on this continent as much
as South Africa. It's an African originated cow bell type
musical instrument.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
You know, I liked where you're going. I thought to
me it would feel like Pangin drum. That pangin would
feel more like something from like India, the Panjin drum.
But either way, that's not what it is. It's someone
who thinks they're important. Oh, that's a basically an insult. Yes,
it is a pangin drum. That's a good one to
(02:59):
be to use in like a staff meeting. Yes, well,
let's let's listen to the Panngin drum.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Buddy, break out your your smartphones. You'll want to go
to your notes. You'll want to take notes on this.
Now we'll hear from the panda drum.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
You should probably video it and then and then you
could tweet it out a video of the wise words
about to be uttered by the pandin drum. Right anyway,
know that that word means someone who thinks they're important. Tomorrow,
and by the way, the entry is on the Morning
Rest blog and you can win about six thirties when
we're going to do that contest.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
And now that everybody's coming back into the office, that
in fact is a word you could use three times
tomorrow in your regular conversation. Make it part of your
vocabulary of the pangin drum.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
You know, Jonathan, you and I, well, I mean more
than you. I think struggle with sleep. And I have
for many, many years tried to figure out sleep hacks,
sleep tricks, sleep whatever. And one of the things that
I had heard from numerous reputable sources is that it's
(04:07):
far healthier to sleep on your back. If you can
sleep on your back, that is the way to go.
That's the way you were designed to sleep. I've always
had trouble sleeping on my back. I got what I
invested heavily. I bought one of those mattresses that you know,
like the like a hospital bed type of thing. Yep,
so it'll kind of you can get in like a
lazy the feet and the state. So you can do
(04:29):
that if you want. But even then, I still have
a hard time staying on my back. I just roll
over on my side.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I created something even years ago because I too wanted
to sleep on my back. This is probably twenty twenty
five years ago, and by chance. I had one of
those inflatable pool floats, okay, and one of the compartments,
you know, you get to blow up multiple compartments on those.
One of those compartments was the outside what do you
(04:56):
want to call it? You know, the area outside Scott,
What am I saying here? It will be the air
compartments on the outside. Okay.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
So this is just something to trap you in the
bed so you can't roll You.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Just blow those up. You don't blow up the ones
in the middle that would lift you from the center
of it, just keep you from rolling over. And I
put it on my bed and I would sleep in
that so I wouldn't roll over. I'd just be like
stuck in that thing.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
And that's brutal.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Well, it got uncomfortable because when you would roll over,
it would make a squeaky noise. Oh, so it would
wake me up and then you wake up on top
of exactly I should have continue that.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Thanks to an exhaustive study now at the Cleveland Clinic,
they have now announced that there is no good sleeping position.
One does not top any other. Sleeping on your stomach,
sleeping on your side, sleeping on your back, It's all
the same.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I always thought the water bed. I missed the waterbed,
by the way. I have one of those, and I
loved it.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
You're talking about those ones in the seventies where it
was like rocking in the ocean.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Well, I got the one with the baffles, so it
wasn't quite as bad. But the waterbed, I thought. I
sleep on the Sleep Number bed because it allows me
to adjust the firmness and the mattress, and I've got
it just set perfect at fifty eight. That's where I sleeps.
And you're no longer doing the endorsement. So that was free.
That's a freebie right now, you just heard. But I'll
never give up my Sleep Number bed.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
And we were paid to actually swap those out at
one point, but you didn't give it up.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
No.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I forget the store that we were supposed to do
that for.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
But no, I did not give it up.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I had a nice mattress from that company, the other one,
not sleep Sleep Number.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
I love my Sleep Number bed, but it helps me.
But you're right, but they're saying there is no good Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Doctor Nancy Foldovrey, Schaeffer sleep specialist, says that after years
of studying this, nope doesn't matter doesn't matter how you sleep.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Do you remember them all? They used to have these
massage beds that you would get in the bed.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I remember the chairs. I think they still have them.
I guess kind of fifty cents or a dollar.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Or well, this one you would actually be enclosed kind
of like a tanning bed, and it had water inside
the mattress on the top and the bottom, and then
the water pressure with.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
The water was on top of you too.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Yeah yeah yeah, so like you're like trapped on both
the bottles, yes, who And then that the pressure inside
would come across back and forth, back and forth, back
and forth, so you never get wet because it's all
it's the closed. But I've often wondered why we don't
have water beds that are new technology where you lie
in the water, because that would relieve all of the
stress off of your body because you're floating. I don't
(07:37):
I don't understand why the technology is not available yet.
Well maybe I should go home and work on that one.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
I know it Planet Fitness. I don't enjoy it as
much as others do. I'll sometimes opt for those massage
chairs that they have because I specifically like it when
they massage my calfs. I have very tight calves. But
they also do have a hydro massage bed. It doesn't
have the top part, but you just lay on it
and like you said, the water goes up and down
(08:05):
and it's warm and it feels nice. I've enjoyed those
as well, but I don't like them as much as
the massage chairs.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I think that, you know, I should combine the mattress
with these new tubs you see advertised for the elderly.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Oh, the ones you just walk in and then shut
the door door.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Yeah, because I sleep best in a pool with a
float under my arms. In my head, I can way
back like this and the rest of my body's just
hanging down. Takes all the pressure off your spine. That's
the best sleep I ever get.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
That's funny. When I went to London years ago, I
went on one of those tours of Ancient London or
whatever the hell they called it. You know, you could
see like Jack the Ripper, Oh yeah, yeah, like all
those things happened, and I think it was Jack the
Ripper who was like homeless. Basically, they didn't call them homeless,
(08:57):
they called them something else. Backless, yes, flatless, And so
there was apparently that was a big problem in his era.
And for whatever it was a pence, is that what
they got is that their money the pence. For a pence,
you could come into, you could come inside, you could
get out of the cold, and you could, but they
(09:20):
would force you. I think they the way, if I
remember right, you had to sit with your back against
the wall, and that's how you had to sleep in
order to jam as many people in as possible. And
so they put boards up or something like about the
length of somebody's legs, so you were going to be
shoulder to shoulder and there was going to be somebody
(09:40):
again two three feet in front of you because they
had those boards there as well. Or if you were
feeling rich that night and you wanted to luxuriate for
two pence, they hung a clothesline from one end of
the building to the other, and the guys would put
their they would get on their knees and they would
put their arm over the clothes line and it would
(10:02):
kind of like hit them in the chest, and that's
how they would sleep. And I never forgot that that
that's how people and that was considered to them like
an upgrade because they would be kind of hanging, kind
of similar to what you're talking about, Brot. Yeah, like
a clothes line, not a big one. That was the
upgrade for the poor folk of the day.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Okay, I'm not gonna complain anymore about not being able
to sleep in my sleep.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
By my thousand dollars mattress or.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Let's see.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Top holiday trends according to Edsy, as we get ready
for twenty twenty five, they're projecting they're looking at what
people are getting early and those types of things. Yep,
it says have a Nona holiday, channel your inner Italian
grandma with crocheted dollies, embroidered linens, red accents, and old
(11:00):
world lamp shades. Apparently this is quite the rage for
the youngsters, the twenty somethings. They never had this. They
know that you had it because they seen your photos
from when you were a child. So people who kind
of grew up in the sixties and the seventies in
the eighties, you had parents and or grandparents that had
(11:23):
this decor, and that feels awesome to them. They want that,
so they're buying it for themselves to roll out for
the holidays. They're also saying that and I love this idea,
which is weird to me because I'm not really much
for going to parties, but I like dinner parties. I
like the idea of like a group of like ten people.
(11:46):
And so one of my friends is in one of
these what are they call them supper clubs, where it's
like a group of ten people and you just rotate houses.
So every first Saturday of the month or something. They
say that that is really caught on with the twenty
somethings as well.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I'm just glad though they got their face outside of
staring at something at their phone, just talking to people. Yeah,
good for them. That's an encouraging sociological notation.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yeah, we have all of the holiday trends listed on
the Morning Rest blog at ninety seven five wcos dot com.
According to your great friends at wallet hub, O jeez,
they don't actually even talk about us.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
They actually have a Columbia office.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
But I can tell you that wallet hub definitely leans
pro California.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Oh they hate South Carolina.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, they well, they don't like the South per se,
and that's pretty obvious. Like when they look like they
usually like if it's education, well, if it's anything, it's
going to be pro California, but it's also going to
be pro New England, pro that sort of stuff. But
in this one, so again, it's usually rust belt and
(13:07):
or South Southern cities that are always going to get hammered.
Ten cities where people spend the most on groceries, and
the ten cities where people spend the least on groceries. Now,
if I just bring this to our attention, just because
I want to see Jonathan Rush's response, when I say
the number third city, this is number three in America.
(13:28):
This is the place where people spend the least amount
of money on groceries. Now, typically when you think least
on groceries, you're going to think probably near a farming
community because they have easy access to the food, most
of the produce there, and they also have lower incomes people,
so they're not going to go on out and buy
(13:50):
expensive things. They're not going to have huge grocery bills.
With that in mind, I present to you the top three.
Number one, these are the least expensive. This is where
they spend the least amount of groceries is Fremont, California,
Number two, San Jose, California, And at number three San Francisco.
(14:12):
We're to believe that the people who live in San
Francisco barely spend a penny on their groceries. Really, Number
four was Irvine, California. Number five, I don't know where Gilbert,
I know, all right, at.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
The bottom of the study, what is that based on?
What do they tell you that the ledger is based on? Here?
What were the lead They look at.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
The twenty six most common grocery items, and then they
see what states and cities charged the most and charge
the least. And they're saying food prices in San Francisco
just like an eighth of what you pay in Columbia.
It's so free. It's just free and easy over there.
But it's most expensive in Detroit. It's very expensive in Birmingham, Alabama.
(14:53):
It's very expensive in Memphis, Tennessee, where we're a bunch
of suckers in the South. But again, you just have
to pay, like photos gass.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
In any zip code in or near San Francisco, you
couldn't find a home cooked meal if you went door
to door with a damn twelve gage. Nobody in California cooks.
They all eat out and they pay way too much
for it. They go to the laundry and hang out
with people like Gavin Newsom and ask him how he
gets his hair so damn perfect. They don't do that
in the South. We go to the grocery store as
(15:28):
hunters and gatherers, and we're hunting. Excuse me, we're hunting
for the best buys because we spend a lot of
money at the grocery store because we go home and
we cook. That's my argument.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
But we overpay.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
No, we're just paying more because we're buying more. We
buy more.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
They're just saying that the items are more expensive here.
If you wanted to buy a pot roast in Columbia,
South Carolina, it'd be like ten times you got to
pay for it in San Francisco or Beverly Hills or
midtown Manhattan.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Well, I was as I was making up that argument.
I was thinking about even the neighborhood that we live in,
and Sally for all those years we had the kids
at the house and she cooked all those meals, God
bless her. And I started counting up the other day
how many meals my mom actually cooked for me as
a kid. Because my mom died about two years ago,
and I was thinking about her on a birthday two
days ago. How many meals did my mom prepare for
(16:21):
me every every year? Because she would cook three meals
a day. So in a big salute to moms who
are cooking the meals, because that's love on a plate.
You can't, you can't.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
That's the best. That is the best kind of love.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Especially if you got boys. Boys loved their mamas because
mama cooks the food.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Well, I hope that they do, but a lot of
kids think their moms were granted.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
As I was thinking about that, Sally I think was
the only real It was the only person on their
street who cooked like two meals a day. When I
say cooked, I mean she got up and fixed their
sandwiches to take to school and then we laid found out.
David in particular, never ate. I don't think any one
of the submarine sandwiches that your mom hand prepared and
(17:07):
put wrapped gently and put in your bag for you
to carry. He would sell that at school for like
five or seven dollars and then go buy some of
that cheap, zupid ass pizza they had in the cafeteria.
I was feeding some kid I don't even know who
he was.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Why you were feeding your son indirectly, he didn't have
the money for the pizza, which he preferred over his
mother's home cooks.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
So my entire argument just dissolved before my eyes. So
I will retract all my previews.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
They made an argument, and then you debuncture.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Women in the South, we don't cook anymore. This is
why restaurants are taking over the world, because nobody cooks.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Well, it's not even like well, I say, it's chain
restaurants and mostly drive through.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Mostly, Jonathan, I believe I'm pronouncing it right.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I should know it. I believe it's pronounced Utahville. It's
in orangebur County. Sure, Utahville has made the national news today.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Oh good, what happened?
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Yes, and for one of your favorite subjects.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Uh huh?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Monkeys?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Oh yeah, we got that monkey running around.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yes, according to the story here, now this is in
the USA today. Casey Hill is the town clerked out
there in Utahville. Was working at the Utahville Crappy Classic
and Fallfest Saturday when heard the buzz going on about
a spider monkey that was running a muck in Utahville. Well,
(18:27):
Casey then reached out to the mayor, Brandon Weatherford and
his wife Laura to launch an investigation, and they did
find that monkey after their investigation. And what Casey Hill
did was lured the monkey with a cup of coffee
on the ground. Apparently monkeys like coffee. Who would know that,
(18:50):
I wouldn't have. I would have never thought that. We've
been standing to throwing stuff to the monkeys. O Monkey
Island at Riverbank Zoo. When we need a little conveyor
belt and send them coffee. I didn't know this about love.
They get very excited. So I'd love to see him
all hopped up on caffeine. Oh that's a spider monkeyed
up on caffeine. He get us a mountain dew in there.
(19:12):
I'm all hopped up on mountain dew.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
And you can't mention mountain dew without thinking about Abraham.
We lost Abraham this week. It was a sad note
in camel history of the State of South Carolina.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
I don't know Abraham. You told me yesterday about Abraham,
but I wasn't aware.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Oh, Abraham's a kid favored. He's been at every presentation
except for I don't think he was ever in Dracula
Halloween of the Bite. He wasn't in that production. I
don't think he was any of the Columbia City Ballet productions,
but Abraham was always in Christmas pageants and the like
and crowd favorite of parades. I miss Abraham and you
(19:50):
miss Abraham. Yeah, everybody. I had a sixteen ounce mountain
dew in his honor of the other day. Because you'd
give him a mountain dew, He'd turned that thing up
and kill it. Of course he had a homp so
he could take in five or six, seven or eight.
Never slow down.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Did you pour a little out for your homie? You know,
that's what the rappers do. They take it like a
forty ounce.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
You know, I've forgotten to do that. That is part
of the rapper culture that I never really am fully embraced.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah, today, it's a good day for you to go
dump a little out for your homie, Abraham, my homie, Jonathan.
This is one of these issues where I think you
and I were too old to be a part of
this debate or this even this thought process. So morning
Russia regular, I'm just reading from his email. So I've
(20:40):
been out with this girl like four times now, and
typically when I've gone out with girls in the past,
they at least make the offer. Would you like me
to pay my share? Would you like me to cover
part of this?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
I used to love it when girls I do this and.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Maybe by the third day. But I've been out with
her four times and she's never even once reached for
the wallet or made an offer of any kind. Do
you think that she's taking advantage of me? Do you
think that this girl's only going out with me for
the free food? Do you think that if I said
to her, maybe, hey, maybe you could kind of cover
(21:21):
part of it this next time, we'll kind of find
out what kind of girl I'm really dealing with. Is
this girl a gold digger? How do I know this
guy knows nothing about women? Well? I think you and
I know nothing about the twenty twenty five women.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
All right, A couple of things to keep in mind here.
Number one, the woman wants you to take care of her.
That means feed her. I don't, but I don't remember
one of the things you have to do.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
He's saying. The women he's all dated have always by
the third date offered, Hey, do you want me to
pick up some of this? I never I mean I
dated women in the eighties and nineties I never had
that happen.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
I could think a few times, but I really they did.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
But apparently that's a common occurrence.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Because it gives me an opportunity to point out again,
I'm paying for your meal.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I am the man, I sweet you, I am in charge.
I have this.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yes. So, And it also helps you went over that
she needs to find ways to show her thankfulness.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Anyway, I wonder where that was going.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
Now. A couple of things. If by chance, you ever
see a woman wrapping up some of the incredible breadsticks
and olive garden, Let's say you're the olive garden who
doesn't love the bread sticks. Everybody loves the bread sticks. Okay,
so if you see her wrapping up some breadsticks and
then putting it in her purse or something like that,
and you know, look, you really need to make sure
you take this girl to dinner because she's not get
(22:49):
enough food.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
We're gonna swing by the Public's on the way home.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
Not a bad idea, get some muffins to go.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
But if I gave you fifty bucks, how would you
spend it?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
At this money? It's another story. I love the honey,
but is there a cool whipping a cat close So
if you have an opportunity when a woman says that
to you, you do have the opportunity to reiterate that
you know firmly and your position in this relationship. My
job is to care for you, your safety. You're in to
(23:20):
take your food.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
But to his point, he's not saying that he wants
her to pay for it. He's just upset that she's
never offered to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
I don't know how to process that because I never
had it happen in that often. And he's I mean,
this guy sounds looking for an independent woman. Is that
what it is? You're not going to be the man
of the relationship, You're not going to be the head
of the family when you have kids. What are you
showing her that she can just take control whenever she
wants to.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Well, first off, I think he's like twenty two, so
he's not looking to get married just yet. But I
think that what he's saying is you hear about some
women are just in a relationship for the money. They're
not really interested in you.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
That is a problem and it should be a serious
concern you look out for it. Maybe I'm missing the
boat because this is something going on which plainly the
women are already shooting the flair across the table and
for the money.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
He's saying. One of the ways to show that you're
not into it for just that is to just make
the offer that's, oh, this has been a great date.
Would you mind if I covered half of it? And
then you get to say no, no, no, look great, I've
got it. Listen, it's my honor to be out with you.
Don't worry about it. I got you. But she hasn't
said that. She just sits there. The check should be
(24:29):
going to him, let him pay for it.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
It'll be one check, He'll be taking it.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Yes, And so now he's kind of like, is this
a red flag?
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Now?
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Again? You and I are not in her twenties, So
I don't know. Maybe the youngsters and I shouldn't say people.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Very often the waiter I know by this, the waitress
or the waiter would look at her and say, are
you gonna beat just a one check? Or are you
gonna be taking up picking up your ass? That question
is never asked a.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
T are you kidding me?
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Well?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Maybe it's because my wife is black and I am white,
But that question is asked almost every time we go out,
shut the hell up? Are you? Is this one check
or two?
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Shut the hell up? Always ask they don't think you're
a couple.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
I guess not. Couldn't be. Look at hell, Look at
how ugly I am. Well, that's a good argument. She's hot.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
That's a good argument. Interesting. I like it. This is
opening up a whole new thought process for me because
I haven't been in this situation. I've never faced this
kind of scrutiny or or the pivotal moment, the dinner
with the date, because this is pivotal. Yeah, it's so good.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
So so anyway, tomorrow learns younger people hopefully or maybe
even just people who are in today's dating pool. I mean,
maybe it's different. My friend Torrian, he's gosh, he's pushing
fifty I think now, and he's like, he got divorced
a few years ago, and he's like, I can't believe
the women today. It's so much different. He's like, I
(25:54):
mean he was married from the time he's like twenty
five to like forty five, and he's like, it's a
completely different world. Really, Yeah, And he's talking about women
in this age group, like the forty five year old
women He's like, I can't believe these women today.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
I'm excited about learning more about this. All right, I
don't think experience this.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
No, you shouldn't, especially with even when Sally wouldn't like that. No, no, no,
your experiences.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I don't. Look, we come to the table. All I
got to know is what I want. Now, she'll tell
me what she wants to I and order it for her.
Oh is that how you guys? Do you guys kick
at old school that way? Yeah, when the lady will
have the lady was going the lady would like to
have the so and so and so and so and
what was the extra you wanted? Oh, three salads on
the side.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Yeah. So, so she'll tell you in front of the waiter.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
If I forget, I have to ask.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
That's hysterical.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Absolutely, And she'll tell me and then I say it
to him like he didn't hear it. Yeah. But the
only time that doesn't apply is at the very beginning
of the meal, like in particular we're with other people,
it's going to be like, you know, a table for
ten or whatever. Sally would say, Okay, we're going to
order the appetizers for the table. We want all of
them and just scatter them out, Oh oh yeah, so
(27:05):
we we haven't eaten yet. I've spent one hundred bucks
on appetime.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I'm one hundred deep.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
The only time I actually, you know, say the words
of what my wife wants is if we go to
the Starbucks drive through. That's like she'll tell me, tell
them I want the Moca lat iced or whatever it is,
and and then she wants the Mocha eye. What would
you like?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Write nothing? Nothing. Yeah, I'm not rich enough to I
just dream my bank account on that one.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Yeah. I don't make enough money for two coffees here.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
I actually walk up to the counter every time we
at Starbucks, is Sally where we standing there, and say
you have to order for yourself. I don't speak Starbucks. Yeah,
and she'll go into that long description of some kind of.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Oh so so she so she you don't place all
her orders?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
No, I do not. That's the only time I let
her run.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
That's the only time that I do place the order.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
I can't speak the language. I just sit in the
corner like an idiot. By the way, I got a
suggest it for Starbucks. Everybody who goes to Starbucks send
an email to corporate put some damn felt on the
bottom of those chairs. These new chairs they have meddle
part wood chairs and the brand new floors and Starbucks
or the tile, and you pull that chair back and
(28:16):
it sounds like kids in the school cafeteria. Great, I mean,
it's just it's just the most annoying thing ever. Wow,
And all these restaurants have this problem.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
I have not experienced this.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
If you start listening a couple of things going on
inside the eating industry. Number one, the chair scraping on
the floor. That's scott to damn stop. Number two, actually
have a ceiling. I know you think everybody thinks it
looks cool in him for the exposed roof on your
restaurant where you can see the air ducts and everything.
You're just too damn cheap to put in a fault
(28:51):
ceiling that helps with the sound so it doesn't sound
like we're sitting in the high school cafeteria. Again, I'm
eating with a bunch of middle schoolers. It's just too
damn loud.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
This doesn't sound like grumpy old man at all.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
