I did one part of the trip, soyou're the planner.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Okay, I love doing that too, but you ever heard the
phrase of paralysis?
By analysis could have madefive trips by the time it takes
me to figure it out.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, I did that.
I planned an international tripfor like eight guys for a golf
trip and it was cool.
But you know, when you have toexplain what the exchange rate
is and does to a bunch of idiotswho then think I'm trying to
work an angle, I'm like nah,dude, just don't go.
(04:49):
I don't set the laws of financein the UK, Just stop, just stop

Speaker 2 (05:15):
We all know those people.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
I mean, if you're in a pinch, I get it.
That's a huge deal.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
How long have you lived in DC?
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Whole life yeah, the exception of school.
I've been very fortunate.
I started and ended one careerand then started a company, and
now I'm on the downward slide offiguring the rest out.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yeah, that's incredible.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yesterday the whole.
I'm out tonight specificallytrying to get some content
because there was an assholelast night who I threw out of my
car and so I'm just trying toget snippets of people calling
this dude out.
I'm referring to him as Susan'shusband.
Susan's husband was a fuckingasshole Tourists.
(06:01):
Husband and wife, two kidspicked him up at a hotel.
Mom and two kids get in theback.
Kids picked them up at a hotel,mom and two kids get in the
back.
Susan's husband busts open thefront door, which is fine, might
want to ask.
I don't know, I got my cooler,I got my wallet Bunch of
(06:21):
personal stuff.
Dude starts taking the stuff and, like throwing it on the floor,
starts here, hold it.
I'm like no, no, no, no, yeah,yeah, yeah.
And so we started right and Ijust said, look, man, I'm kind
of chill, I don't, I don't needthis job, so just can you just
slow down a little bit.
Yeah, and he just wouldn't, andI appreciate he might be having
(06:43):
a bad day, not my problem andI'm like, and I'm like, and I
looked at his wife and she's notsaying a word and I said, okay,
I understand the dynamic.
This is a dude that's neverbeen told no in his life and I'm
just like the wrong guy.
No, like you're the alpha inyour world Me too, and it's my
car Now.
You got to go.
(07:04):
And now he starts pushing back.
He's not going to get out ofthe car and I'm like, dude, your
kids are here.
Yeah, can you just please?
Yeah, you know.
So, anyways, I might haveinvited him around the corner to
work it out, I might.
I can't remember because again,I don't need the job.
Um that's crazy and so, anyways, I had the idea of coming back
(07:31):
out and retelling the storythrough a different lens and
getting people's reaction to itand having a good laugh about it
.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Man, fuck Susan's husband man, that's what I'm
saying.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
You know, that's the first time I ever did that too.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Told someone to get out yeah, Politely, of course
you know, interesting,interesting, but it's not
surprising, though, just theamount of personality that
exists in the world yeah, Iguess that's admirable, you know
I I reverse engineered.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I was like you know what.
I've been there, man, married,you're traveling with your kids.
You're in a hotel room, wife'sprobably laying in you a little
bit, maybe you're behind on yourreservation, you're flustered

Are you in the DC proper area or are you on the
outskirts?
I'm up in Maryland but, likeyou, know five miles outside of
the city.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
So everyone claims to be a Washingtonian, even if you
don't live down here.
I don't want to live down herebecause of the speed tickets
$100 a pop, really.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Cameras are everywhere, okay.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Speed cameras, red lights, stop signs, right turn
on reds.
Oh yeah, I wouldn't survive.

There's no lie.
There is a woman.
We got two minutes.
I'll tell the story in one.
This lady was 300 pounds fromWyoming, drunk, hammered, gets
in the back of the car, fallsasleep and I can hear her stop
(11:04):
breathing.
She's got sleep apnea.
I can hear it, so I'm pumpingthe brakes.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Come on, man, you got to get up.
Yeah, not today.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
And so I start ripping through red lights
because I don't want this ladyto die in my car yeah because I
don't want to drop 50 grand onthe attorney just to prove why
this person is in my car damnyeah, yeah, and so I got like
400 in red light tickets, wow,and I had to do like the online
adjudication.
