you hated radio. I don't hateradio. I just hate some of the
people that run the companies. Yeah, yeah, but there's nothing wrong with
the doing it, doing it,with the doing of it. You know,
it's really a lot like you knowwhat to a dilecto it that way
do it? It's great. Yeah, it's just all that goes clean thereafter,
(03:06):
ye clean up, clean up.Perfect comparison. But I'll go with
it though. Yeah. Work.Yeah, it's got a few dangling loose
ends, if you will. ButI think we got the general ballpark with
it. I'm here, Can Itell you? I'm weirded up by two
things right now? Only two?Okay, it's very low for me.
(03:28):
We'll get to Julian a minute,because she's one of them. Yeah,
always is it me? No?The other one's Jake. Jake has two
water bottles in front of him.I do one. How many ounces are
these? Sixteen point sixteen? Yeah? All right, so I'm gonna say
the one on my right half acourt in eight has probably two and a
(03:49):
half ounces left. Yeah, andthe one on the left probably has twelve
or thirteen ounces in it. Okay, so there's two open water bottles,
but neither one is empty. Arethey both yours? H I think so?
Yeah? This is yeah, Imean, what do you want me
to drink this one first? Feelsatisfied? So I want you to finish
the first bottle? Did you alsowatch my weird autism thing where I have
(04:10):
to have them. I have tohave them both like facing exactly the same
direction. I got a good autismtest. I got tested for autism last
week. It was fun an adulttime. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's great to know. I thinkit would it would satisfy my autistic yearning
for the natural order of things.Finish the first bottle. If you do
(04:30):
finish the first bottle, chuck,chuck with all of you. It's just
not it's not right examined. It'sbottle. Just let the man live,
Okay. And the second thing that'sweirding me out today is Julie, show
everyone your hair. You're gonna makeme radio show everyone my hair today.
(04:53):
Yeah, tell us what happened toyour hair? Well, Jake knows together
for a long time I have weirdthings happened to me, and I'm always
struggling with one thing or another.Did you get cancer again? No?
Yeah, that is such a oh. I hang out with dan Quest the
music group. I can't believe youwould say such a thing to me.
What did you get more of it? It's just asking, just kidding.
(05:16):
No, as far as I know, I'm good in that regard. And
I did not have any of thishair at one point due to that can
she had cancer, Jake. Butnow alone, now she's got hair.
If you have she looks beautiful.But I don't know what you guys are
saying. Well, I don't knowwhat you're saying either. Man text in
(05:36):
if you have cancer and Jake justpissed you off, well do what Jeff
told you to do. So Ido treasure my hair because of that fact,
of course, And I felt likewe were in a good place,
like it's grown out, it's prettylong, take good care of it,
get some highlights, you know.But every once in a while something happens
(05:59):
that just makes sense. And thismorning one of those things happened. I
was blow drying and the back partof my blow dryer it must so the
out the front part must blow out, the back part must suck in.
And I never really thought about that, but it sucked in a bunch of
the hair in the front of myhead, and now I have like one
(06:19):
big dreadlock. Oh my, yeahthat is It's definitely a dreadlock. She
asked me earlier, how does thatlook. I was like, well,
it's you're going to cut it off. There's no way that's getting unentangled.
Yeah. So I spent the wholeshow prep trying to untwist this one dreadlock
in my hair. I feel likepeople pay for that, for dreadlocks.
(06:41):
Yeah, for that, yeah,but just one. Yeah, some people
not a chunk of hair in thefront. Yeah, then you have it
hang all the way in the frontlike you make it the very front.
Did your hair start to falling outwhen you had kids a little bit?
Yeah, it did happen all Ididn't know that was a thing. Yeah,
it starts falling out when you havekids. I mean, having kids
(07:02):
throws off everything in your body.I'm not recovered. I know people my
age and they look older than me. It's because they have kids. Yeah,
Christen's hair started falling out. Itdid. It's not cancer. Now,
see that was him. So didn'tfall to you to go around and
(07:23):
gather the hair that falls out andsomeday make up some sort of scene where
she can use it to replace becauseshe's not dead. I don't understand.
I don't either, So just putit right back where it came from.
Yeah, replace that. That's kindof what I man. Throw it away?
(07:45):
Could you do? Gather it ifyou see it in the event that
it is present for me. Yes, that's a good husband. Go around
and pick up her shedding hair andthrow it away for shedding. Okay,
Yeah, he still has he stillhas radio cussword anxiety that hasn't left his
body, right, that's right.You gotta do a lot of cussin on
that dumb zone, don't you not? Really you don't. No, it's
(08:09):
kind of cheap, don't you think? Yeah? I do. Yeah.
So I think as broadcast professionals,we should be able to express ourselves without
doing it. Now. I don'talways adhere to that, sure, but
that's my the basic tenant. Ifit's not If you can't use a cuss
(08:31):
word for a intentional shock, thenit's not fun anymore. Yeah, there
may be there may be one ortwo maybe per episode, but it's it's
not like overrun with that by anymeans. And besides, everybody everybody else
does it now? Yeah, youknow you hear it everywhere. It's not
the cousin's not really fun anymore.Did you, uh, when Jordan was
(08:52):
young, did you mind your mouths? Yes? I did? Yeah,
I did. You don't do you? Oh? I one hundred percent.
Yeah, I'm very very attentive aboutthat fact. Aforementioned wife sometimes not so
much. Well, it's hard becausewe're just living life. Sometimes life is
hard and you have to drop anF bomb you don't realize who's around.
(09:13):
I think that'd make a great Tshirt. Sometimes life is hard to drop
a Yeah, I'm really really particularabout it because she mirrors everything that I
do. You certainly remember that youprobably do as well. Julie like everything
that I like. She likes everythingthat I love. She loves everything that
I say. She says. Soit's yeah, it's still that way for
(09:39):
me. Yeah, you have to, uh, you have to be careful
about it. What does she thinkof space? Well, make your thoughts,
you know, to be honest,maybe my thoughts have changed. Oh
my gosh, do we need somebreaking news. Sounder. You think that
is straight? The space gone straight? M we got him so cool?
(10:09):
It was, it's so cool.I was ready to poop poo it too.
Same And then I looked at itand I was like, this is
awesome. Yeah, super cool.And they took all the kids at my
daughter's school out and yeah, putthe little glasses on them, and I
don't know, it's pretty cool.Did they all cheer and jump up and
down? Go movie? Yeah?Same. It's about the keyest thing I've
ever seen. I don't know.I was kind of pulling for the sun
(10:31):
myself. Yeah. It was minusone thirty. Yeah. He didn't allow
that moon to defend him for toolong. No, son didn't. He
got out of there. Yeah,it was a good job. Okay,
So that's a pretty big update inyour world. You don't think that space
is SG anymore. You're a fanof space. I generally think that space
(10:52):
travel is a waste of time andmoney, Okay, but looking at that,
it was really really cool. Yeah, and you're not wrong in that.
I mean, when you think aboutit, what have we really accomplished?
Velcrow? Yeah, maybe that velcrocame from space. Dippin' dots.
(11:13):
Yeah, it's not much. It'sreally not, especially when you consider the
I just want to start the costof space travels. Yeah, they are.
No, dip dots are from No, they're very much from space billions
with a B, yes, Bbillions. In theory, the payoff comes
later when we've destroyed the planet andwe figure out that we can inhabit somewhere
else. But I don't even knowif that's possible, So it's probably not.
(11:35):
So it probably is just literally awaste of everything. Instead, we
could have not homeless people and peoplecould eat and that'd be cool. Yeah.
Yeah, you could get sick andnot die. Well, I don't
know if I want that. Well, I don't want to put the cart
before the horse. Can I startdown another thread here? Sure? Don't.
(11:56):
What's your day to day life likenow? So we tend to record
at the same time every day wedo the dumb do something every day,
uh not today, four days aweek. The podcast is called The Dumb
Zone Patreon, dot com, slashand The Dumb Zone. If you want
to subscribe, we're trying to getto six thousand a day. Also correct.
(12:16):
You can also find us on freeplatforms. We do two a week
for free. So we just wetreat it like it's a show. Yeah,
you know, we we prepped theexact same way. We we record
at the same time every day,we post at the same time, just
to keep it consistent and feeling likeI would imagine you have to do that
for sure. I don't. I'mnot great with freedom personally. Freedom's overrated.
(12:43):
Yeah. I think I'm pretty greatwith freedom, but always wind up
getting screwed by it. Yeah,that'll happen. Yeah, maybe that's a
better way to freedom. That's doingit, you guys. Yeah, yes,
it is. It's the fact thatit's there and you're the product.
I think it's I know what todo with it, but all too often
I find out I really don't.Yeah. Yeah, So I like to
(13:05):
have my time filled. I liketo see Dan every day. I like
to see Blake, our producer,every day, and so we just do
the show every day like it's aregular show. It's no different. Really.
Yeah, sometimes now I have totalk to a lawyer. You haven't
gotten tired of Blake yet, Well, Blake is actually Blake is actually great
because he's I don't think he reallylikes our show, and I think that's
(13:26):
what you want out of a producer. You can hear that when you listen,
Like, I think he thinks we'reterrible. Yet there he is.
The amus is on him to tryand make two guys who are inherently terrible
in doing something that you're terrible at. Better prefer that over a guy who
(13:48):
thinks you're great. I don't know, man, I need my ass kissed.
Yeah, well he ain't doing that. I'll tell you that he is
not doing that. You're doing great, Shopie, there you go up,
you're crushing it. But it's fun, man, it's it's super super fun.
And I, uh, strangely oweit all to you. Why couldn't
(14:13):
Why couldn't you hurt me? Bitch? How do I fit into this?
Well? You let me tag alongonce upon a time. No, once
upon a time years ago. ButI mean you had other others up there
who were at least equal, ifnot bigger, advocates of you than I
(14:35):
was. Yeah, but they hadto sell it to you though. Yeah,
Well, I'm glad I did buckstops there, I'm glad I did.
Yeah. Groups, look at groups, Look I love you d hanging
out with day. I started callinghim the producer of this show, because
that's exactly what he is. Youmay not have the idol, but for
(15:00):
me, you do. I don'teven know what my title is, must
play far that's it, just kissass. Yeah, but I just know
that everything you're doing is great.Shoopy, keep at it a job security
blugger, blogger, Yeah, waitto go a little slugger at champion,
(15:20):
Jake. I noticed an inflection changewhen you tried to give Mike a compliment.
Is that hard for you? Isit hard to look at someone and
offer a sincere thank you. It'snot hard to look at someone and give
a sincere thank you. It maybe hard to look at him, which
I believe just about every single personhe's ever interacted with would agree. But
(15:41):
yeah, I mean, dude,you help me out. Good job,
glad to do it. You didit, you did, glad to do
it. There we go. Yeah, and well, decumen, kind of
crazy unfolded. Huh. Seventeen Weall knew he had maybe eighteen maybe eighteen?
Yeah, and he and he wasdriven. I could tell he was
(16:04):
driven. We all could driven rightinto a ditch. This is something he
really wanted, even if it wasinevitably going to wind up and said,
dish, it was a long timebefore the ditch, really, you know,
Yeah, there were a lot ofgreat things along the way, and
(16:26):
that was a chosen way for everybodythough. Yeah, sure, yeah,
it was a chosen It was achosen Dacke. That was not an accident
or a wreck. That was intentional. He grabbed the wheel and veered right
into the embankment. Yeah, you'rebetting on four by four or something,
you know, I can get thatother side. Yeah, all right,
Jeff David Robertson to now we'll beokay with him. Probably Bullpen's ass again,
(16:55):
shocking. Yeah. I was sittingthere though. I was said,
they're getting ready for the show,and I saw the number for the Tigers
change from one to two runs,and it was like, oh, Bullpen
must have gotten involved. Where's theclerk. His last time out he was
damn good. He does great inthe six one time the seven. Yeah,
actually, his last two times outhe's been good because they've been using
him in middle innings, lower leverage, lower leverage. Yeah. I texted
(17:21):
somebody the other night that he pitcheslike I parent, which is I don't
really want to do this, butthey're gonna make me yeah, wow,
greater knowledge. He always just lookslike he's out there, like, yes,
Christ, I guess I gotta dothis. He looks like he would
rather be anywhere but there, Likeit's surprising each time when oh, geez,
(17:48):
mat me do this again? Hethrew this ball back to me again.
Wake up, God, I hatethis game. Go to sleep,
Wake up, and they're all stillhere. I have to keep doing it.
I would love to see I getWhen he's out there in the bullpen
and he hasn't gotten up to warmup yet and it's the eighth inning.
The Raiders have a lead. Inthe phone rings Clark Cup, He's like,
(18:11):
really again, me, okay,y'all saw right. I would think
you would be that it wouldn't rattleyou, considering you were kind of nails
while going to win a World Series. He's been with the team for like
ten years. Yeah, he's notsurprising him anymore, but that thing catches
(18:36):
him off guard every time. Idon't know, guys, the game is
pretty close, are you sure?Me? But those guys maybe we'll win
a baseball game maybe yeah? Maybe. So anyways, y'all just do this
all day or what? Pretty muchYeah, four hours of this and that's
brought to you by Celsius Essential EnergyDreams. That guy right there knows,
(18:59):
Yeah, yeah, fueled by CelciusEssential Energy drinks. Yeah. What's on
Mike's mind is what's fueled. Yes, what's on my mind today is you?
Okay? Oh how about that?I'm here. That's a great thing.
What's on my mind every day isyou two? Yeah? Your old
news. Well, and you've beenchewing on this Bachelor story for a while
too, Oh yeah I have.Yeah, Yeah, we could run it
(19:23):
by Jake Golden. He's a Bachelorguy. Yeah. Did you watch Golden?
I watched most of it. Ididn't wait until the part where they
were mad at him. Okay,I didn't watch through that point, but
I do know that people got veryupset with him. Yeah, and you've
heard about their ultimate demise. Yeah, Gary and Teresa. Yeah, just
(19:44):
three months a little too toothy,little too toothy. Oh yeah, Mike
Robertson's too. If you're pitching theRangers bullpen, you get thirty percent worse.
That's the rules. He's the onethat has been most dependable. It's
especially hard when the Rangers are on. Yeah, he can't he can't stay
(20:06):
on. Yeah, as everybody whohas ever worked with me knows that they
they don't know what they learn itreally quick. Yeah, it's the most
fun for me because I'm sitting withmy back to that TV and I don't
know how to get the Rangers onthe other one, and so I'm watching
Mike watch the Rangers. Tell methat hard. I don't know. You
would be shocked. We've been herea year and a half. Man,
(20:27):
you cannot get there. You can'tdo stuff on the other TV. We
think we spliced it in from theKorean Consulate. Okay, yeah, they're
on four Okay, okay, theConsulate being on the fourth floor makes you
make interesting decisions about once a weekbecause I'll get to the lobby and it
(20:49):
happened again. Uh Monday, Iget in the lobby and about the same
time as other humans, and youhave to decide when they look lost if
you should suggest a floor mm hmm. You know it's like because you could
(21:10):
say it, they're like, whatare you talking about? I'm looking for
one oh two point one. Yeah, so I'd never say anything. You
just let them. But I wouldbe bad, yes, but I would
be batting a thousand. I wouldhave been right to suggest each time so
far, when I see people andthey don't know where they're going. Yeah,
but you're also not to talk tostrangers. Guy, Yeah, know
(21:33):
how to interact with people in thehall. Yeah. He had another interaction
with our engineer Mike. Yeah,and he pulled it, there he is.
I went with his catchphrase because Idon't know what to say. He
went with there he is. Didyou do like finger guns sometimes? Yeah,
that's bad. Did you do thatwith Mike? No, I just
said it. I just said therehe is because he's that's what he says
when he sees me. He triedto take Mike's catchphrase and throw it back
(21:56):
at Mike to throw them off.So then Mike didn't have his catchphrase.
No one knows what to do ina hallway of that length when you're approaching
someone for a long time. Ihug them. That's a good one.
What do you do for the twentysteps before you get to them? Eye
contact? Oh? Like, armsout like I'm approaching, Wow, like

male male or female? Both?Yeah? Yeah, okay, no age
discrepants. Sometimes I might do aside hug for females because I don't want
to get me tooed or whatever.Actually I kind of do now that I
think you might as well. Tendsto lead toile that on I'm sexy you

(08:09):
kind of cheap, don't you think? Yeah? I do. Yeah.
So I think as broadcast professionals,we should be able to express ourselves without
doing it. Now. I don'talways adhere to that, sure, but
that's my the basic tenant. Ifit's not If you can't use a cuss
(08:31):
word for a intentional shock, thenit's not fun anymore. Yeah, there
may be there may be one ortwo maybe per episode, but it's it's
not like overrun with that by anymeans. And besides, everybody everybody else
does it now? Yeah, youknow you hear it everywhere. It's not
the cousin's not really fun anymore.Did you, uh, when Jordan was
(08:52):
young, did you mind your mouths? Yes? I did? Yeah,
I did. You don't do you? Oh? I one hundred percent.
Yeah, I'm very very attentive aboutthat fact. Aforementioned wife sometimes not so
much. Well, it's hard becausewe're just living life. Sometimes life is
hard and you have to drop anF bomb you don't realize who's around.
(09:13):
I think that'd make a great Tshirt. Sometimes life is hard to drop
a Yeah, I'm really really particularabout it because she mirrors everything that I
do. You certainly remember that youprobably do as well. Julie like everything
that I like. She likes everythingthat I love. She loves everything that
I say. She says. Soit's yeah, it's still that way for
(09:39):
me. Yeah, you have to, uh, you have to be careful
about it. What does she thinkof space? Well, make your thoughts,
you know, to be honest,maybe my thoughts have changed. Oh
my gosh, do we need somebreaking news. Sounder. You think that
is straight? The space gone straight? M we got him so cool?
(10:09):
It was, it's so cool.I was ready to poop poo it too.
Same And then I looked at itand I was like, this is
awesome. Yeah, super cool.And they took all the kids at my
daughter's school out and yeah, putthe little glasses on them, and I
don't know, it's pretty cool.Did they all cheer and jump up and
down? Go movie? Yeah?Same. It's about the keyest thing I've
ever seen. I don't know.I was kind of pulling for the sun
(10:31):
myself. Yeah. It was minusone thirty. Yeah. He didn't allow
that moon to defend him for toolong. No, son didn't. He
got out of there. Yeah,it was a good job. Okay,
So that's a pretty big update inyour world. You don't think that space
is SG anymore. You're a fanof space. I generally think that space
(10:52):
travel is a waste of time andmoney, Okay, but looking at that,
it was really really cool. Yeah, and you're not wrong in that.
I mean, when you think aboutit, what have we really accomplished?
Velcrow? Yeah, maybe that velcrocame from space. Dippin' dots.
(11:13):
Yeah, it's not much. It'sreally not, especially when you consider the
I just want to start the costof space travels. Yeah, they are.
No, dip dots are from No, they're very much from space billions
with a B, yes, Bbillions. In theory, the payoff comes
later when we've destroyed the planet andwe figure out that we can inhabit somewhere
else. But I don't even knowif that's possible, So it's probably not.
(11:35):
So it probably is just literally awaste of everything. Instead, we
could have not homeless people and peoplecould eat and that'd be cool. Yeah.
Yeah, you could get sick andnot die. Well, I don't
know if I want that. Well, I don't want to put the cart
before the horse. Can I startdown another thread here? Sure? Don't.
(11:56):
What's your day to day life likenow? So we tend to record
at the same time every day wedo the dumb do something every day,
uh not today, four days aweek. The podcast is called The Dumb
Zone Patreon, dot com, slashand The Dumb Zone. If you want
to subscribe, we're trying to getto six thousand a day. Also correct.
(12:16):
You can also find us on freeplatforms. We do two a week
for free. So we just wetreat it like it's a show. Yeah,
you know, we we prepped theexact same way. We we record
at the same time every day,we post at the same time, just
to keep it consistent and feeling likeI would imagine you have to do that
for sure. I don't. I'mnot great with freedom personally. Freedom's overrated.
(12:43):
Yeah. I think I'm pretty greatwith freedom, but always wind up
getting screwed by it. Yeah,that'll happen. Yeah, maybe that's a
better way to freedom. That's doingit, you guys. Yeah, yes,
it is. It's the fact thatit's there and you're the product.
I think it's I know what todo with it, but all too often
I find out I really don't.Yeah. Yeah, So I like to
(13:05):
have my time filled. I liketo see Dan every day. I like
to see Blake, our producer,every day, and so we just do
the show every day like it's aregular show. It's no different. Really.
Yeah, sometimes now I have totalk to a lawyer. You haven't
gotten tired of Blake yet, Well, Blake is actually Blake is actually great
because he's I don't think he reallylikes our show, and I think that's
(13:26):
what you want out of a producer. You can hear that when you listen,
Like, I think he thinks we'reterrible. Yet there he is.
The amus is on him to tryand make two guys who are inherently terrible
in doing something that you're terrible at. Better prefer that over a guy who
(13:48):
thinks you're great. I don't know, man, I need my ass kissed.
Yeah, well he ain't doing that. I'll tell you that he is
not doing that. You're doing great, Shopie, there you go up,
you're crushing it. But it's fun, man, it's it's super super fun.
And I, uh, strangely oweit all to you. Why couldn't
(14:13):
Why couldn't you hurt me? Bitch? How do I fit into this?
Well? You let me tag alongonce upon a time. No, once
upon a time years ago. ButI mean you had other others up there
who were at least equal, ifnot bigger, advocates of you than I
(14:35):
was. Yeah, but they hadto sell it to you though. Yeah,
Well, I'm glad I did buckstops there, I'm glad I did.
Yeah. Groups, look at groups, Look I love you d hanging
out with day. I started callinghim the producer of this show, because
that's exactly what he is. Youmay not have the idol, but for
(15:00):
me, you do. I don'teven know what my title is, must
play far that's it, just kissass. Yeah, but I just know
that everything you're doing is great.Shoopy, keep at it a job security
blugger, blogger, Yeah, waitto go a little slugger at champion,
(15:20):
Jake. I noticed an inflection changewhen you tried to give Mike a compliment.
Is that hard for you? Isit hard to look at someone and
offer a sincere thank you. It'snot hard to look at someone and give
a sincere thank you. It maybe hard to look at him, which
I believe just about every single personhe's ever interacted with would agree. But
(15:41):
yeah, I mean, dude,you help me out. Good job,
glad to do it. You didit, you did, glad to do
it. There we go. Yeah, and well, decumen, kind of
crazy unfolded. Huh. Seventeen Weall knew he had maybe eighteen maybe eighteen?
Yeah, and he and he wasdriven. I could tell he was
(16:04):
driven. We all could driven rightinto a ditch. This is something he
really wanted, even if it wasinevitably going to wind up and said,
dish, it was a long timebefore the ditch, really, you know,
Yeah, there were a lot ofgreat things along the way, and
(16:26):
that was a chosen way for everybodythough. Yeah, sure, yeah,
it was a chosen It was achosen Dacke. That was not an accident
or a wreck. That was intentional. He grabbed the wheel and veered right
into the embankment. Yeah, you'rebetting on four by four or something,
you know, I can get thatother side. Yeah, all right,
Jeff David Robertson to now we'll beokay with him. Probably Bullpen's ass again,
(16:55):
shocking. Yeah. I was sittingthere though. I was said,
they're getting ready for the show,and I saw the number for the Tigers
change from one to two runs,and it was like, oh, Bullpen
must have gotten involved. Where's theclerk. His last time out he was
damn good. He does great inthe six one time the seven. Yeah,
actually, his last two times outhe's been good because they've been using
him in middle innings, lower leverage, lower leverage. Yeah. I texted
(17:21):
somebody the other night that he pitcheslike I parent, which is I don't
really want to do this, butthey're gonna make me yeah, wow,
greater knowledge. He always just lookslike he's out there, like, yes,
Christ, I guess I gotta dothis. He looks like he would
rather be anywhere but there, Likeit's surprising each time when oh, geez,
(17:48):
mat me do this again? Hethrew this ball back to me again.
Wake up, God, I hatethis game. Go to sleep,
Wake up, and they're all stillhere. I have to keep doing it.
I would love to see I getWhen he's out there in the bullpen
and he hasn't gotten up to warmup yet and it's the eighth inning.
The Raiders have a lead. Inthe phone rings Clark Cup, He's like,
(18:11):
really again, me, okay,y'all saw right. I would think
you would be that it wouldn't rattleyou, considering you were kind of nails
while going to win a World Series. He's been with the team for like
ten years. Yeah, he's notsurprising him anymore, but that thing catches
(18:36):
him off guard every time. Idon't know, guys, the game is
pretty close, are you sure?Me? But those guys maybe we'll win
a baseball game maybe yeah? Maybe. So anyways, y'all just do this
all day or what? Pretty muchYeah, four hours of this and that's
brought to you by Celsius Essential EnergyDreams. That guy right there knows,
(18:59):
Yeah, yeah, fueled by CelciusEssential Energy drinks. Yeah. What's on
Mike's mind is what's fueled. Yes, what's on my mind today is you?
Okay? Oh how about that?I'm here. That's a great thing.

I watched most of it. Ididn't wait until the part where they
were mad at him. Okay,I didn't watch through that point, but
I do know that people got veryupset with him. Yeah, and you've
heard about their ultimate demise. Yeah, Gary and Teresa. Yeah, just
(19:44):
three months a little too toothy,little too toothy. Oh yeah, Mike
Robertson's too. If you're pitching theRangers bullpen, you get thirty percent worse.
That's the rules. He's the onethat has been most dependable. It's
especially hard when the Rangers are on. Yeah, he can't he can't stay
(20:06):
on. Yeah, as everybody whohas ever worked with me knows that they
they don't know what they learn itreally quick. Yeah, it's the most
fun for me because I'm sitting withmy back to that TV and I don't
know how to get the Rangers onthe other one, and so I'm watching
Mike watch the Rangers. Tell methat hard. I don't know. You
would be shocked. We've been herea year and a half. Man,
(20:27):
you cannot get there. You can'tdo stuff on the other TV. We
think we spliced it in from theKorean Consulate. Okay, yeah, they're
on four Okay, okay, theConsulate being on the fourth floor makes you
make interesting decisions about once a weekbecause I'll get to the lobby and it
(20:49):
happened again. Uh Monday, Iget in the lobby and about the same
time as other humans, and youhave to decide when they look lost if
you should suggest a floor mm hmm. You know it's like because you could
(21:10):
say it, they're like, whatare you talking about? I'm looking for
one oh two point one. Yeah, so I'd never say anything. You
just let them. But I wouldbe bad, yes, but I would
be batting a thousand. I wouldhave been right to suggest each time so
far, when I see people andthey don't know where they're going. Yeah,
but you're also not to talk tostrangers. Guy, Yeah, know
(21:33):
how to interact with people in thehall. Yeah. He had another interaction
with our engineer Mike. Yeah,and he pulled it, there he is.
I went with his catchphrase because Idon't know what to say. He
went with there he is. Didyou do like finger guns sometimes? Yeah,
that's bad. Did you do thatwith Mike? No, I just
said it. I just said therehe is because he's that's what he says
when he sees me. He triedto take Mike's catchphrase and throw it back
(21:56):
at Mike to throw them off.So then Mike didn't have his catchphrase.
No one knows what to do ina hallway of that length when you're approaching
someone for a long time. Ihug them. That's a good one.
What do you do for the twentysteps before you get to them? Eye
contact? Oh? Like, armsout like I'm approaching, Wow, like
