all I mean, what it is? What it is? You've always we've
always just goof on the rock horns, you and I the RN. It's
like the same people who are adultsand still take pictures and and throw up

it's like I does that bother us. Like no, I was like,
it's more of a goo bother youplus too, I'm like, I don't

like rock horns. It doesn't meanyou're gonna tell me your kid can't do
it. Now. Here's a spintoo, like he knows that, Uh,
there's this little MMA class on Sunday. He's like, yeah, we
go to church, so we can'tgo. So I think he thought it
was also, hey, you guysmust really love church and is at the

(09:46):
Sign of the Devil's like, man, that's really deep. I was like,
I didn't think about that. Iwas like, no, I was
like, I just don't do rockhorns everyone, I really know what did?
Rock horns look kind of silly likerock shows, rock horns tongues out
just don't get it, any ofit. So I was never in the
rock the rock horn world. Youlove God, you don't love the devil.
Yeah, So they're doing doing rockhorns. I love everything about this

(10:07):
place other than the fact that mykid has to do rock horns in a
picture. That's the only thing Idon't like about this place. That's all.
That's not a big deal. Man. You don't bother me by doing
that. Just you know, no, Bruce, it just looks silly when
you do rock horns, that's all. It was so cool. But then

worse than rock horns. That's whatSpock used to do. Man, Now

XL nine am. We'll give youthe keyword. Be listening for that keyword.
You're shot at one thousand dollars startsat nine am this morning. I
watched a guy yesterday. Man,he could use one thousand bucks. He
just didn't care about his job.You just was a guy who just going

(12:41):
through the motions, could care less. He was the guy who collects shopping
carts in the parking lot. Butnow they've made it easy because they have
this mechanical thing that pushes all thecarts. So you got the machine so
you can line up so it's likea little train that runs, so it's
like you don't even have to pushthe carts anymore. I'd like to know
is that his job? Is hethe cart specialist? Or is this a

(13:03):
guy who's done stocking the produce andhas a couple of minutes. Now,
I think my guys at my store, are they that's their job? Okay,
they're they're the guy Like I havean ACME I go to and it's
the same. It's one guy smokescigarettes almost like he's in a dugout of
a baseball stadium. And when enoughof the the the the carts gather up

(13:26):
in the parking lot, then he'scalled up and he puts his cigarette out
and he goes out there and getssome done. Shoot, if you're a
smoker, man, that is thejob job. You can smoke on the
job. Sure, But yesterday thiskid, dude just could he could have
cared less. He's he's riding thelittle train right, he's got I don't
know, twenty carts and the youknow, so he's heasy. He's pushing

(13:48):
him in and here comes a guypushing a shopping cart right, and they're
coming into the front door of thestore. And the dude is old and
he's having problems walking. And heasked the kid, because you can see
the kid works there, he said, hey, kid, do you have
one of those rascals I can usein there? Because the guy I looked

(14:09):
old. Yeah. It wasn't likelike we goof on the people who are
just too big and they need therascals. This guy was old and was
having problems walking it's usually where theyset him up is right there by the
carts. This kid just goes,Nope, they're broke. Wow, dude,
the look of disappointment on this oldguy's face because now he has to
walk around the whole store. Hecan barely walk. And it wasn't even

(14:31):
like this kid's like, you knowwhat, sor let me run in there
and see if I what I cando. Let me try and make something
happen. Instead it was Nope,they're broken. No, there's no respect
anymore. You don't know you talkto people. There's no common courtesy anymore.
He he's in his eighties and he'sjust asking, Hey, he got
one of those rascals, and youknow what sucks, man? I walk
in Now I'm no better. Ididn't do anything to help the guy either.

(14:52):
I walk in the store to puthim in your cart wheel him around,
dude, like one of those racecar ones the kids use. I
walk in and two of them arebeing used by big people. See,
and I'm like, this is anold guy who needs it. You did
that to you. That guy isjust old and needs it, and you
guys are using them. And sothe only ones they have left are broken

(15:13):
but it's like, if you're thatkid, man at least attempt to say
like you at least go in andpretend that you're looking for one, right.
But no, the kid just keepcare of that. Nope. Uh
huh broken. I was like,ah, man, I get it,
I get your job's not fun,man, I apologize, you know what,
there's a few that aren't working rightnow, and it looks like the

(15:33):
other two are used. I'm sorry, and that's it. That would make
the guy feel better, but justnope, No, that's the generation we
live in. Man. No,nope. And he probably even looked the
guy in the eyes. You couldhave a conversation. You young kid has
no idea how the communicate looked atit. He looked at the guy,
said nope, they're broken, andthen just kept on his way. Yeah.
Why because you know you report thatkid that they're not gonna fire that
kid. They don't care. Andso that was it, man, And

(15:56):
I'm like shaking my head. I'mlike, man, come on, dude,
that is a shame when you're usingsomething like that and and you kind
of brought it on yourself and oryou don't need it, you're just being
lazy, like using the handicap stallin a bathroom not being a handicapped And
I've gotten pinched one time man,when I came out and there was a
guy who clearly needed a handicap stall. I'm like, hey, man,

I know how my wife is gonnadie, Oh my oh, most likely

(17:03):
going to be in a car onthe Parkway traveling sixty five miles per hour.
She's a little speed demon. Sothis is what goes on man,
so and again, I feel likeI've been I don't know, maybe because
I'm getting older. I'm like,get off my long, guy, I
just keep writing. I seem tobe ragging on things. I just I'm
saying it by why my wife willcomplain that me and you sound like old
man. We do man, I'llmanage. Just we get you get there

(17:25):
was a certain point in life wherethings just get to you. I get
it. I get it why ourdads didn't want to hang out with us
because kids are stupid. Younger peopleare stupid. I'm at the point now
where I just I just I putmy head down, I focus on my
family and what I can control,and that's it. Yeah. So my
wife has a she got like abrand new car, man, because you

(17:45):
know, in her job they giveher a car to a company car.
Yeah, company car. This hashappened before with another car where she had
to turn in. So she's onthe uh, She's on a parkway driving
and all of a sudden, thecheck engine light comes on and the car
just wants to shut off and likealmost break right like almost right there on
the parkway where she's scared the detchlike I even you want to be able
to trust you got cars, Yougot cars going eighty nine miles an hour

(18:07):
exactly. You're on the parkway.People are out of their minds. So
she goes, she goes to theservice, the bar and she turns it
in. Now, of course theday of the check engine light now goes
off and they're going there. They'rechecking out the car and they call her
up. And I knew this wasgoing to happen. We didn't find anything
wrong with it. It was like, okay, well this is this is
what happened. Something wrong with her? Yeah. Yeah, they don't operate

(18:27):
like you got that little scanner theyplug in, but only that only those
places have. So uh yeah,what is that machine? That the little
magic scanner? So she said,well, did you check out the car?
He said, well, the checkengine light isn't on? Right,
we could, we know, weknow the check in your light was on,
but it's not on now. Andwe can't go back and look at
what happened to the car because it'sunless the check engine light won't. You

(18:51):
can't go back and see what actuallyhappened with the car. That's sound scamner.
But to me, that little scannerwon't show. That happened to me
too. I went to a place, uh, and they weren't very good.
They erased the scanning like they allthey I think they call it like
a reset button. And then Itook it to a real place and they're
like, yeah, well we don'tknow what's wrong with it now because the
other place erased everything. Yeah,hey, guy, clearing out the fact

(19:12):
that the check in your light cameon. Of course we don't want that
on our dashboard. I get thatyou want that cleared out, but you
also want to find out what happenedwith the car where it just just wanted
to stop and decelerate on the onthe the parkway. And it is and
it's but it's scary when when it'sbecause there's so much technology in these vehicles,

(19:32):
and when it just starts to stopon you and you can't do anything
about it, you're like, ooh, I am I have this issue with
I gave a car to my oldestright, it was my old car.
It needs a catalytic converter, sothe check engine lights on. I talked
to my guy, He's like,you don't need a catalytic converter. Catalytic
converters just there to kind of cleanup the the I guess the exhaust system,

(19:56):
right, He's like, it haszero effect on the car. It's
fifteen hundred dollars to replace. Nowhere's the issue. My inspection is up
in July and I need that checkengine light to go off. Yeah,
inspection stations, may I say ballplusters. So I started to google it and
they say, like the morning ofif I unhook the battery and hook the

(20:19):
battery back up for like a couplehours, the check engine light won't come
on, and if I can getit into the inspection center in those couple
hours, I'm all good dude.Growing up, man, your car always
failed for emissions. It was alwaysemissions, and I don't know, it
could be a brand new car offthe line. I think that's why emissions.
They started making catalytic converters because ofthat. And when this guy told

(20:41):
me, he's like, look,he's like, I'm gonna tell you it's
gonna be fifteen hundred bucks for thepart, and it's gonna be like one
hundred bucks in Lake now Worth.It just put a piece of black tape
over top of that. And that'swhat he said. He goes, he
goes, I don't be honest,and it's been two years, and he's
like, it's not gonna affect thecar in any way other than you're staring
at the check engine light, andit is It is so annoying to be

(21:02):
staring at a check engine light.Now my wife comes back with what I
thought was a fantastic question. Shesays, did you test the car on
the highway? That's where it happened. It happened when I was traveling on
the highway. You idling it inyour garage, looking hey, Frank,
look at this. I'm a problemwhen it Did anybody drive it on the
highway to see if the check enginelight came back on it or something that

(21:23):
went wrong with the car, Becausethat's what it happened. What I told
you a common sense thing to me, Like that's just normal. I think
I know the problem. The problemis you got the car from a car
dealership, but you didn't buy thecar. The car was given to her
as part of her job. Hercompany had to buy a car, so
bought the stupid car. They knowthat you're not going to be a customer
and they could care less about you, man, Like we didn't pick it

(21:45):
out, So you're not going tobecause you're not going to go re up
a car. You're not going tobuy a car from them, So you
are on the bottom of the totalpole. Yeah, olden days. Man,
you go to the mom and pop. You know you got you got
Tom there, Tom the mechanic.He's going to take that thing out for
a test drive after he fixes thecar, make sure it's working, checking
out no lights on now, oror you feel what happened? Or the

(22:06):
old guyam I know what that is? Now? It makes sense because I
drove it on the highway. Theold guys whose fingers are covered in oil
and grease, right one. Yeah, he's gonna tell you he's he goes,
don't buy a new car, toomuch technology. He's gonna be that
guy. Well, never buy anew car, like I said, Man,
this is just through a company.I'll never buy a brand new car
in eighty seven Buick Century. That'swhat I just bought that No problems,

(22:29):
no problems. It doesn't just stopon the parkway. No, it just
stops for no reason at all.Even the warranty too, that's a sham
as well. Yeah, because youwant to extended warranty what's a cover?
Nothing? Nothing, Yes, signme up. It's at it to my
payment. Look we uh we getback. We'll knock out some trash.

(32:44):
Sorry, d y I be is, yeah, you're lost look we
we get back. Well, knockout some headlines the XL South Jerseys rock
station z x L Morning Show.That's us. I feel like it's trashy,

(33:07):
but I had you know, ithappens every year this time of year,
and it's it's because I live inthe pine barns. I live in
the woods, and you know,you could put up all the developments you
want, it's still the woods.Yeah, you're still living among the animals.
So, uh, this time ofyear, dude, weather starts,
the break gets nicer. We getthese little microscopic ants that get in our

(33:32):
kitchen, okay, dude. Andthey started a couple of days ago,
and right away family text thread,I said, guys, it's this time
of year ants. I go,you gotta stop with the food right leaving
it out. Can't take any foodto your bedrooms, I said, unless
you want to wake up filled withants. Great time for a lesson,

(33:52):
man, right, family, LikeI said, you got, everyone's got
to be on because it's it's abouta month where I don't know if the
answer just coming out of the groundand they end up getting into the house.
So you know, I gotta layout those stupid little liquid traps and
I'm like, it's a pain inthe balls, and I feel like it's
kind of trashy. But it's likethen I talked to the neighbors and they're

(34:13):
like, no, we all havethem too. But then my wife has
like a little coffee like nook thingnext to the coffee maker, and dude,
every year it's the honey she hashoney there, you got it too,
Yeah, I use it for mycoffee now. And the ants are
like it's a moth to a flamewhen it comes to this dumb honey,
and I'm like, ah, Soit's like this morning, I'm cleaning them

(34:35):
off off the countertop. I'm tryingto spray, but not spray, like
I don't want to spray bug sprayin the kitchen. It's a pain in
the ball man, Like I like, the guys should do lawn service,
right. I think it's a scam, right, And I've caught the guy
not really putting it down, somy wife will get an exterminator comes around
and like sprays the house. AndI used to think it was a scam
too. I'm like, what's thisguy really doing it? Yeah, I

(34:55):
don't know. But then we gotants and he would. I happened to
be out and we showed him,like, listen, we got these ants
coming up. He's like, I'vegot it. He put these little traps,
not even in the house, aroundoutside of the house. Let me
tell you. It was like Idon't know, It's like it was like
he's an ant whisper where He's like, listen, I just charge these people

(35:15):
one hundred dollars to put this thingto get rid of you guys. Yeah,
that's why, dude, I'll putthem out. Just leave the house.
Everybody, just come leave the house, get in the truck. I'm
going to send you to another house, and we're to get them as a
scam because I know where they comein. They come in from the same
spot. So amazing man. Butand then I know some people they'll they'll
pull borax around their house and likethat's like it like you like your grandparents

(35:36):
used to do that to stop theants. But imagine when that's not good
for your lawn. I'm sure noneof it's none of the chemicals. Remember
when we were kids, the exterminatorwould come in with that that that the
push thing and the and the spraybottled. If you were laying on a
floor cartoons. He would just sprayover your head and you could smell it
too. It's not just not goinginto our lawns. It's sort of like

(35:57):
gasoling. It kind of smelled goodand a big metal thing he's got.
Yeah, dude, And I don'tknow what was up with my parents,
but like the exterminator was there allI think my mom was having an affair
because he was there all the time, and we had do We had a
horrible and like knock on wood.We don't have this issue now, and
I think it's because we've learned abouttreated wood. But we growing up,

(36:17):
man, we had a horrible issuewith termites. Okay, dude, you
talk about creeping you out, likethey when they take over, they take
over and not only have you takenover your house, but they're destroying it.
Also. Yeah, it feels trashy, man, Like I'll get like
I'll see mouse droppings out in thegarage, and then again it's a lesson

(36:37):
to the family. Hey, listen, I can't have things piled up in
my garage because you're making a nest. We've had snakes in the garage or
a snake come in the sum room, dude, I can't do that.
I had an old beat up truck, man, I had left it in
my garage for the winner. Dude, a chipmunk got in it and made
a nest in the glove compartment.Yeah, yep, right, So I'm
like, that's pretty impressive. Sowe have the same chipmunk every year lives

(37:00):
in our he takes his winter homeis our garage and he camps out.
He's got a little chair he sitsin, he drinks my beer and uh
and yeah, so he's uh,he's Alvin the chipmunk Man. He's been

understand how they get in. Yeah, you can't smash them. It's bad
luck. But where are they comingfrom? But yeah, man, so
I gotta, I gotta, Igotta wait this out today. I gotta
I gotta go get the stupid traps. And dude, those ant traps are

(37:44):
not cheap either. The answer notas bad as cockroaches. Yeah yeah,
I mean still still got an insectrunning around your kitchen, man. Like
my my wife gets freaked out aboutcockroaches because she grew up in South Philly.
Man, those row homes, dude, all it would take is one
row home to be and everyone hascockroaches. So she gets all freaked out
about cockroaches. So every time Ikill a bug, she's like, tell

(38:06):
me it's not one of them andit it's like honey they hate sitting in
Dude. I love this stupid thingof honey. I want to take the
thing on honey and throw it away. That ain't cheap either. We just

Cruises fleet, and it now reportedlyhas a gastro intestinal illness outbreak that affected
twenty eight passengers and one crew memberso far. The CDC is monitoring the
situation that's shown itself in the midstof a sixteen day voyage. That's a

(39:35):
long cruise. What do you dothere, man, everyone's sick on the
boat. Well, remember for COVIDthey were doing that. They were they
would leave people at sea and they'relike, none of the ports would let
them in, right, Yeah,they're infected zombies onboard. Actions have been
taken to ensure good hygiene and minimizingany further spreading into illness, while guests
are kept informed and the source ofthe illness, about the source of the

(39:57):
illness, the type of illness,and until it's identified, which it has
not been yet. In the meantime, hopefully guests stay out of places like
pools. Dude, have you everbeen on a cruise? No, not
yet. We've talked about disgusting.Yep. It's I mean the idea of
it, Okay, I get it, but the actual being on one and

(40:19):
seeing how disgusting people are, andI mean the quality of people, it
is disturbing. You did one,She did one with some neighbors and they
had a good time, only becausethey were taking the boat to like a
fun island and then getting off theboat hanging out in the back on the
boat. But uh, yeah,she went on one. She had a
good time, but again it wasit was two days, three days.

of monkeys, you generally don't thinkof Florida, right, But there are
monkeys in Florida. So now monkeysin Florida are giving people herpies, talking
about running loose right just around thestreets. Yeah, I think so.
According to Florida Fish and Wildlife ConservationCommission, Central Florida has seen a growing

(42:07):
number of monkeys. I guess thestate park had started bringing in monkeys and
they kind of got loose. Apparentlya glass bottom boat operator brought them to
an island in the area, wherethey eventually increased to about four hundred.
Now they have about two hundred left. They roam Central Florida. But they
test positive for herpes beat and ifthey bite you or scratch you, you

(42:31):
could then get hurt. Sure,now now you got herpes and you're stuck
with Herkley, you got monkey hercestoo. That's the worst of the herpesh
Did you get your herpes? Hank'sthis monkey in Florida. One man's rage

I got to ask him today.I know I'm not going to get

(45:07):
a straight answer. I think hiswife hates me. Now, this is
my best friend growing up. Man, I haven't seen him. I've seen
him once once a year for thelast three years. We haven't hung out
as a couple. Do I knowhim? My fat friend Joe Big I
like him? Yeah, yeah,yeah a Deli right, yeah, Deli.
Man. So I know the lasttime we were like you, I'm

(45:28):
trying to think. I don't rememberany stories where you kind of embarrassed yourself
in front of her. My wifeand I were over his house. And
this is right when COVID hit andthey started throwing around the vaccines. You
did vaccines, and you did takethe vaccine. You did lose some friends
over this, we did. BecauseI was talking yesterday with the announced Trump's
do an a rally in Wildwood andme and you went to the one he

(45:52):
did four years ago before COVID hitin Wildwood, and dude, I did.
I did lose friends over that.I posted up picture me and you
were just goofing around having a goodtime. Like there was posters of like
Trump riding a dragon. I havea I asked a Hispanic woman. She
had a sign that says Hispanics forTrump. I have a picture of me
holding the sign. Me asked ifI was Hispanic. I said yeah,

(46:14):
half as she gave me this sign. To me, it was just like
it was a spectacle to see.And dude, I had friends hit me
up and they're like, I can'tbelieve that you would do something like this,
And I'm like, what what didI do? Yeah? I lost
her over the vaccine and this isright when and me and him, it's
weird. Me and him are reallypro Trump and she was pro Biden.
And I probably said some things Ishouldn't have said and it ruined their relationship.

(46:37):
We haven't hung out with them inthree four years. What's funny is
my my wife's cousins when all theTrump stuff back six seven, eight years
ago happened, they were all teenagersearly twenties, right, liberal as can
be, head in the clouds.Ah yeah, okay, Now it's ten
years later, right, eight tenyears later they all now are married,

(47:00):
have families, bought homes. Dude, all Trump supported? Yeah, what
do you think about those interest rates? Price has flipped the switch so fast
it's amazing it Actually it makes myhead spin because I'm like, eight years
ago you were throwing drinks around myhouse because I had a Trump bobblehead.
Yeah. When you grow up andyou take the nose ring out and the
blue hair dye leaves your head.Uh yeah, So I gotta ask him

(47:24):
today. Man, listen, doesyour wife straight up hate me? So?
How do I make this right?Because I miss hanging out with the
guy man good time, and itdid. It ruined the relationship. We'll
