I know what time I have togo. Okay, okay, what
do you think? What do youthink I'm doing in here? I don't
I didn't say anything. I assumeyou're doing work. But the fact that
you're snapping at me and asking mewhat I think you're doing in here,
it makes me think you're not doingwhat you say you're doing. I'm just

(08:48):
trying to help you, that's all. I'm just trying to help you,
and you being so quick to turnaround and snap at me means like,
yeah, may have forgotten. Yeah, And then I got, you know,
I'm not a child. I said, I know, you're not a
child. But then I had.Then I couldn't keep it in anymore,
and then I had. I wentback at her. I said, well,

(09:09):
this this person, it's not achild. We seem to be late
for every party we go to.We went to a party over the weekend
and we were late. I getthe the you're you're treating me like one
of the kids. Yes, waswhat I get, even like I was
just telling you. Now, everymorning I text my wife, good morning,
little guy has his school trip today, So I have to be very

(09:31):
careful on how I word the textbecause I if I say it wrong,
she's gonna fire back at me.I know he has his class trip,
right, So it's just I waslike, hey, is he Is he
good to go? Does everybody doeshe? You know? So I'm just
trying to be very, very verycourteous and sensitive to how I send that
text, because if not, I'llget the same thing. I'm not a

(09:52):
child, Yeah, but you don'thave any ill intentions here. You're actually
just reminding. I would listen.I would love for somebody to remind me
because I forget things. I gottawrite them down. I gotta know what's
going on my carrot. Like you'rereminders like, hey, you have a
meeting tomorrow. I was like,oh, yeah, I do, well,
thank you for that. I don'illsnap back at her and say,
I'm not a freaking child. Iknow it because I didn't know I had
the meeting that's happening today. Soyeah, yeah, so it is.

(10:15):
It's they they once again. Ithink you get your backup because you know
that we're in the right and you'rein the wrong. I think that's what
it is, too, is thatI'm not I'm not pressing you because I
feel that you forgot. But ifyou did forget, then I'm reminding you,
and I think you feel guilty becauseyou know you forgot. I'm humping
you. Yeah. It's it likeI wouldn't get mad if my if my
wife came to me and said,hey, don't forget, you got this,

(10:37):
thank you for the reminder. Yeah, yeah, I got it.
I'm good, but thank you.Yeah. I would never fire back.
I don't. I'm not a child. It's like, I know, I
know what time you said you hadto leave, and it's it's past that
time. And we've done this amillion times. Time to go somewhere.
I've done that dance where I've nowreally i'd say we're leaving forty five minutes
before we got to leave. Youhave to, man, you have to

(10:58):
play that game, right, Igotta play. I got I gotta give
her a curve like we're in acollege. Yeah, it's like playing It's
like playing your slice and golf.You know, you gotta you gotta aim
towards the trees in this way,it's gonna go on the green. But
it's the it's the truth, man, and I don't know, and it's
it's it's funny because I'll follow allthese uh tiktoks and social media's and it's
always like, oh, my husband, he never shuts a cabinet door.

(11:20):
My husband is never on time.My husband's never ready when I need to
be ready. And I'm like,na, no, almost every woman,
I know that's what happens. Iwas just being nice yesterday, just a
reminder to my wife, who Ilove so much. So thank you,
somebody. I know you've got alot of things in your mind. Okay,
so maybe I was just trying tohelp you out a little bit.
If you set a reminder on yourphone and it goes off, do they

(11:43):
yell at the phone and say,I'm not a child? I hope not.
That would be weird. Look,we we get back out, We'll
do some rock news. Joe Joand Scotti rock New there's some rock news
for him. Michael Anthony from VanHalensed being interviewed, and it always comes

(12:07):
up, you know what would havebeen if Eddie van Halen didn't die.
He said that, you know,he wasn't too pumped when he was fired
from Van Halen and replaced by EddieSon Wolfgang, And he said he didn't
really have a chance to to tomake things good with Eddie before Eddie died.
But he did say that he feltsome closure in all of that because

(12:31):
he actually went to see Wolfgang andhis band the What's it go by?
W V HI? I think itis? He he went has just you
know, he bought tickets. Wolfgangfound out that he was there, He
came backstage, him and Wolfgang satthey talked. Michael Anthony said that he
got to hang with Valery Burtonelli,which was great. Uh. And he

(12:54):
said that we talked about a lotof stuff and I really miss your dad,
you know, settled down. Idon't think if Michael Anthony did.
Michael Anthony got screwed by by theVan Hallen Brothers pretty hard. But he
said he loves woofy and he's uhand he's super happy that he's having all
the success and uh. And sohe said he got some closure by talking
the Wolfgang backstage before what a Wolfgangshows? Uh, how this happens.

(13:18):
Lisa Marie Presley must have been theworst at dealing with money. So that
was Elvis's daughter, right Now,Elvis makes hundreds of millions of dollars a
year based on Graceland, based onChochke's, his likeness, all that stuff.
Right, Somehow Lisa Marie Presley wasso bad and dealing with is a

(13:41):
state that she would take loans outagainst Graceland. Can't live on one hundred
million dollars a year. It justto shovels into him. So now Lisa
Murray's dead, right, No oneexpected her to die last year. It's
now her daughter's an actress, RileyCoe. She she now has the deal
with they think Graceland may up forauction. Wow, So she's claiming that

(14:05):
this is all a misunderstanding there withsome fraudulent signatures and some contracts, and
she came out yesterday and said it'snot going up for auction. I have
taken care of everything. She's nowthe one in charge of everything. But
if you somehow if Elvis's family losesGraceland, what like, dude, what
do you is? Was no onewatching the bank statements? This is where

(14:28):
you hand it off to someone whoknows how to run that whole organization.
I guess Lisa Murray took out afour million dollar loan against Graceland or what
I what if you want to fixedthe Ferris wheel? What are you doing?
Apparently? I think she I thinkshe had liked the pills. Ah,
but four million dollars worth of pills, well, it pill her.
So that's a lot of pills.Yeah, that whole I died thing is

(14:48):
making more sense now. Kid Rock, he's he's making a news because I
guess Rolling Stone did a an articlewith him and the guy who did the
articles like, I don't know whathappened. We talked yesterday. That kid
Rock was swinging a gun around duringthe interview. Came out yesterday too that

(15:11):
he was intoxicated during the interview.Why am I not shocked? But you
know there's going in This is whatyou're gonna get. He did have some
moments of clarity where he said sometimeshe does have to tell himself to shut
up. So he said, I'mpart of the problem. I'm a one
of the most polarizing people out there, no question. Sometimes I bitch about
other people. Then I look inthe mirror and I'm like, oh,

(15:31):
yeah, I do need to shutthe f up. Two, he added,
it's a rich guy issue. Idon't have any f's left. I'm
not going to get it right everytime, but I know it's my what's
in my heart is right. Iwant the best for this country. That's
coming from Kid Rock. And hedid that almost famous thing. Apparently the
reporter said that after it was allsaid and done and he's waving around guns

(15:54):
and dropping in bombs and being drunk. He called them up the next day
and he said, you just mademe look a little cool. Oh that's
waving the guns thing. It's prettycool. I don't know. I'd like
to hang out with kids around.Dude, this is exactly what you get.
He's really like white trash with alot of money who just doesn't care.

(16:15):
And that's the fun you get.Man, Dude, I think a
party would be Lisa Mary Presley hangingout with kid Rock. Perfect. Dude.
I go to that party, nomoney left, drugs the morning.
It's one of those things where it'sjust annoying because I know it's lost forever.
I'm never gonna find it. Wehave these little remotes for our fans,

(16:41):
the one in our in our familyroom and the one in our bedroom.
Right if you don't so you don'thave to pull the little cord anymore.
It's just a remote and he turnsthe light on, it turns the
fan on. Different there's there's low, medium, or high, right,
Yeah, but they give you abracket. You're supposed to mount that to
the wall. We never did that. The remote's supposed to sit inside the

(17:03):
little cradle. It it sits ontop of my thermostat cause it's not a
very big remote, so's it's livedthere for five years. That's where it's
lived. But for some reason nowmy little guy has decided that he ish
that my bedroom is like going tobe his uh his baseball tryouts and uh

(17:29):
so he he he runs around ourbedroom throwing the baseball, catching it,
bounce and he it's that. Youshould hear it when you're downstairs. It
sounds like Godzilla is on my secondfloor. He's not doing it against the
wall. He'll throw it and thenrun and dive and catch it. Okay,
so he's just throwing himself around theroom. You need this kid needs
a little brother. So here's he'she's got three other siblings. Let them

(17:51):
play with him. Uh so,uh here is the I know, I'm
piecing together what happened to this thing. Our trash can for our bedroom is
under the thermostat, and while uhyou know, I got King Kong upstairs
jumping and throwing himself against walls inthe floor, I'm guessing it bounced off

(18:15):
the thermostat into the trash can.There it goes right. And it's one
of those annoying things where I'm sureif I call up the company, I
can get another one, and Ithink the one from downstairs will work the
one upstairs. But now every timeI want to I want to change adjust
the fan, I gotta walk downstairsyeah, right, and and how long

(18:36):
until that remote gets lost? Yeah, it's one of those things. Are
you really going to replace it?It throws me back to when I was
a kid. We had one ofthose big console TVs, right, and
uh my mom she hit the knobwith the vacuum by accident, like you're
talking one of those big old steelvacuums. Yeah, it knocked the knob

(18:59):
straight off to the point you neededpliers to turn it on and off.
And I remember how mad my dadwas because he loved that TV. I'm
sure it was. You know,it couldn't have been. It had to
be expensive. Then you're never goingto replace that knob. It's not like
we have an Amazon or something tocall up now where you can get like
even a you know that knob.It's not like now where it's just like,

(19:19):
you know what, I'll just gobuy another TV. Buying a TV
was a thirty year purchase. I'mgonna tell you, man. We had
those those I forget what they're called. Weis I forget what they're called anyway,
the pliers where you adjust it andyou clamp it on and it stays.
Yeah, dude, it was danglingfrom our TV. Dude, because
that's how you would switch. Itwas so ghetto. My dad hated it.

(19:41):
He hated that the knob was brokenoff. He knew he wasn't going
to get a new TV. LikeI said, that's like a purchasing a
car back then. And uh,and he had to stare at it.
He had a stare at the emptyhole that was where the knob was supposed
to go. And then there itis needlenosed pliers sitting right on top of
the TV. Then you had touse that to turn it on. And
all you ever came up with thatAmazon firestick man and the remote control that

(20:03):
operates your TV. Genius. Butokay, here's my problem with the firestick.
The remote's too little. That getslost. It gets lost in between
the couch cushions because it's a verytiny, tiny remote. All first world
problem. Oh yeah, listen tous talking. Apple TV used to have
the worst dude, they're remote,well silver thing, the little silver thing.

(20:23):
It was like, I know mykids were little. I'm like,
I know this is getting lost.I don't get frustrated with my kids often
other than when I go into thebedroom and they've been in there watching TV
and I need to find the remote, dude, like a man. Man,
I'm tearing up the sheets. I'mgoing underneath the pillows. Sometimes it
falls underneath the bed and I'll yellat my little guy because he'll do this.
I'll go find the remote and he'lllift up one pillow and go,

(20:45):
I don't know where it is.You even try, all right, now,
my eleven year old he will nowhide the remote control from the seven
year old so that he can't doit. I'm like, bro, you're
playing with fire. You don't havea good memory as it is, You're
gonna lose that remote control and nothingworst dude, So you want to Okay,
this is why I'm probably going togo to hell Is. In high

(21:07):
school and in college, we'd goto house parties and I steal people's remotes.
Yeah, dude, you want totalk about then that's a bigger You
want to talk about throwing a housein the chaos. Yeah. And it
wasn't even like I do it andlike you know and be like ahha and
bring it back to him. No. No, No, Normally with people
I didn't know, like we'd bouncedthe house to house and that was my

(21:27):
thing. It was me and mybuddies. We thought it'd be funny to
steal the remotes. Well, becausethat kid has to clean up for the
party. That's the one thing he'strying to find, because that's the that's
the one thing that's really going toaffect Dad, is the remote control.
You don't know what the remote controlis, man, that's a big deal,
dude. I'm gonna start putting likea brick on it or a piece
of wood like a teacher does laboratorykey with the big rope because I can't

(21:48):
trust anybody remote control and an adjustablewrench. That's a big chain, like
mister t war Look, I gotto pay a tickets Steve Miller Deaf Leopard
and Journey taking on Citizens Bank Parkup in Philly. Do you want to
go? Six zero nine six sevenseven one hundred and seven six zero nine
six seven seven one hundred and sevensix zero nine six seven seven one hundred

(22:11):
and seven we get back. We'lldo some headlines. This report is sponsored
by all states. A little bitmore volumes started to happen. Nothing terrible
yet, though local access streets,destructed buildings. One hundred point seven is
the excels out Jersey's Rock station.This is why homeowners associations aren't such a
bad thing always. I would lovelike we have a very very small HOA

(22:34):
that really just does like the gardenswhen you first come into my neighborhood.
Nothing really more like we don't havea community pool or anything like that.
Did they have it? Did theyhave to say in what goes on in
the neighborhood? Not really say,but knock on wood, We're pretty lucky.
We had like one one guy thatwas like weighing the cars and he
was starting the park cars like onthe lawn, on like the side of
the house. Yeah, And Ithink the neighbors got together and took care

(22:56):
of that. I hope they justbeat the guy up because one day that
just all disappeared. But I loveLook, sometimes they get outrageous with the
price, but at least an HOAwill make sure people take care of their
homes. Yeah. See, Ihad a townhouse man. It was fine,
like it was they were a newconstruction. Everyone took care of it.
Then we rented it out, andthen we got hit because the woman

(23:17):
put a window air conditioning union.And listen, I'm with them, and
I like the fact that they doprotect the neighborhood. They have to and
you could. We we lived ina place with an h ooa and they
were like they honestly walk down thestreet every night and just take notes on
people's houses. Right. Like Iremember we had a birthday party and it
was the day before trash trash Day, and I had my trash was overflowing,

(23:40):
you know it was. It wasup out of the trash can.
But in the can they wrote,they wrote me up right, if it
they would measure your grass and ifyour grass gets over a certain level,
they'd write you up. See,I'm okay with that. We have we
had houses in our neighborhood, Likewe went through that that transition where everyone
that got a mortgage back when theyshould and have like I finally went away.

(24:00):
She had like grass growing and likeneighbors would kind of jump in and
help out. But we don't haveanybody to protect them, but my mom
and brother man. Now, webought them a small little house. I'm
talking the four hundred and eighty squarefeet. Basically, it's a lot of
square feet put two sheds together.It's basically how they live, right.
But it's out in the middle ofnowhere. It's it's like a bunch of
little houses and there's a lot ofwoods around. It's almost like a trailer

(24:21):
park kind of without the trailer.It's a compound. So they had a
new person move in next door.Now over the weekend, they're putting up
a brand new fence. We're like, all right, new neighbors. Sounds
like they're on the right track.They paint the house blue and not even
like a like a nice like it'sblue, an electric blue, like an
ocean blue or one of those blues. Yeah, man, it's it's it's

(24:41):
yeah. I'll show you a littlepicture of that's their little sheck. Look
how blue that is. It's likewhen you let a like a fifth grader
say hey, I want to paintmy room blue, and you let them
do it. It's that color blue. Yeah. They when I moved into
a development once the house on thecorner, they painted their their fence electric
blue and the shutters on the windowselectric blue. Yeah, which I don't

(25:06):
get, man, No, Idon't get that either. You're in such
a like a it's like a woodedarea. Why do you want to stand
out like that? And that's noteven like like I get it. Like
houses are supposed to be like tanand gray white. Maybe you know,
a brick and that that's it.Any other color just yeah, just looks
ridiculous. Yeah, from where theyare, I mean it's you know,

(25:27):
everything else's wood around them, andit's just this big blue monstrosity coming up.
I'm like, man, I can'thelp you. Man, Unfortunately you're
not protected because you don't have that. You know, they suck sometimes,
but sometimes they're good to have.Like I went back to look at a
house that I had, the housethat you came over, and I had
no furniture, but I had asixty five inch TV, yes on a
milk craney. The guy who boughtit, he painted the trim and the

(25:52):
shutters of the house peach. Whywhy why why cheat? They were like
a like a very like mellow greenlike and it went with the siding and
he painted it peach. So hehad gray siding with peach shutters. It's
a terrible color. Bathroom, it'sa it's a horrible color scheme. Yeah,

(26:15):
my neighbor's beautiful house, beautiful brickhouse. Their shutters are purple.
Yeah, why what do you do? Why are they purple? It's just
stupid. Yeah, yeah, soI have to go. I'll put a

we'll do some trash. Oh whytrack thing thirty on onhing anything racket

(27:06):
or roughing lo frash. There's sometrash for you. This is gonna be
interesting. They did this with thatguy Mac Miller. Matthew Perry's death,
the guy from Friends is now underinvestigation by the DEA and the US Postal
Inspection Service. Now they don't thinkthat someone meant to kill him, or

(27:29):
someone came to his house and killedhim. They want to track down where
he was getting his illegal drugs from. Ah, yeah, that guy,
I don't know, man, heshould be he should be responding. They're
doing this now with when people areoverdosing. They're trying to trace it back
and they're charging the people who theyfound out sold the drugs to them.
I'd like to find the guy thatgave me that bag of edibles that I
overdosed on with my neighbor. Yeah, you didn't know what we were taking,

(27:51):
wasn't it me? He wasn't youmight have been. Yes, anybody
went from him into you and thento me. Lionel Ritchie he became a
grandfather. I guess his daughter,Sophia is she's either pregnant or just had
a baby. He said that sheis on the verge of a never's breakdown.
So I'm sure that that Lionel,who has a couple kids, right,

(28:15):
he had the one that was onthe reality show with Paris Hilton.
I'm sure he could give his daughtersome good advice about about being a parent.
That face, man, he gota lot of work done. He
he looks like, yeah, it'sjust a plastic Mourdain Tiger now, like
it's all it's all plastic. Now. Yeah. I saw like a clear
as day picture of him on thefinale of American Idol and I was like,

(28:37):
oh, yeah, Lionel, what'dyou do? But he always,
I mean, he was never agood looking guy. He always looked like
a lion. That's why I neverunderstood why they made that video and they
made a bust of his head andit didn't make any I mean, I
guess because the girl was blind inthe video, so then she could feel
out his face. Jennifer Gardner's can'tviolets. Ben Affleck's kid too, just

(29:00):
graduated high school, and I guessit was video of Jennifer Gardner. She
was bawling her eyes out. WasBen there? That's a good question,
is that their kid? Yeah,it's okay, violot a flat Travis Kelcey
somehow it came out. I guessmaybe during his podcast that he has no

(29:22):
plans on proposing the Taylor Swift.He said it's not even on his radar.
Marriage is something he takes very seriouslyand not something he would ever just
do to jump into it. Tobe honest, man, it's lasted longer
than I thought it would. Yeah, it seems like they they have a
thing. Yeah, right, likeman, sure, you know, I
guess for those crazy kids I'm rootingfor. I'll tell you what though,

(29:42):
I'm looking at pictures of his brotherJason, and now his brother's gonna hop
over to ESPN right now that he'sretired, the dude has dropped all that
football weight because I mean, I'msure, dude, he was an undersized
center, so I'm sure he alwayshad the bulk up. Yeah, right,
and so now that he doesn't haveto do that, he was.
I saw him at a golf tour. I'm like, quick had a golf

(30:03):
tournament. Dude, he looked downright slim. Yeah, he was like,
okay, all right, way they'vealways wanted to be, but they
can't. Yeah, because either itgoes It goes either way. Either guys
come out and get super fat orguys come out and uh and trim down.
But I think he had to I'mguessing because like I said, he
was he was undersized that he hadto put on a ton of weight at

(30:25):
you know, during the during theregular season. Likes a little wrecking ball.
Uh yeah. And then how aboutthis the new guy who's like,
uh, who's uh under the center? He's real small too. Yeah.
I think he helped get him draftedtoo, So we had a little bit
of an input. Apparently he's likea little mini Jason Kelcey. Uh.

(35:00):
At least it's a nice morning.Well, what's more important the contract,
tickets or kids? I'll tell you. Having a good bus driver.
We're dealing with that now where wehad a real good bus driver and then
he decided to up and retire outof nowhere. And now it's like every
week is a new bus driver andit's hit or miss on if they show
up early, they show up late, they show up at all. Yeah,

(35:21):
my young one has a good one, miss sergeant. She's been awesome.
But my older man middle school,it's one of those bus drivers just
don't she don't care, Like shejust doesn't care about it. He's just
still wearing a mask too. Idon't even care, Like, go ahead
and don't care. I don't care. It just makes sure you're on time.
Like, dude, we've had dayswhere the bus just doesn't show up.
Yeah, that's that's part of yourjob is to show up. But

(35:42):
they got the kid. That's whyyou have the bus. And on the
way home, my bus is well, my kids bus is constantly late,
Like you're supposed to be home bylike three forty five, it'll be like
four fifteen, four thirty or forty. It was. I was in third
grade and I remember this I LoveRocket Roll by Joe Jet. Must have
been the song because my bus driverwhen you stand so we're talking, like
nineteen eighty one, two three,something like yeah whenever that year was,

(36:04):
man, he played it all thetime every time the ride home school windows
are down. Bus driver looks likea fat biker and dude, the whole
bus is singing I love rock androll. Just weeds, smoke coming out
the windows, so much fun.Look we get back, we'll knock out
some headlines. This report is sponsoredby Macy's Have Your Pretty Quick, the

(36:28):
ZXL Money Show or one hundred pointsup in the ZXL, South Jersey's Rock
Station. Three sets of stairs,actually more than three sets three floors of
stairs, no air conditioning? Wheream I? You know it's sad because
you pay a lot of money foryour daughter to stay there. You would
think no one thuck would put anelevator in there. College dorm, yeah,

(36:51):
or prison. So my daughter,she has our last final today,
so she's like, look, Igot so much stuff. I don't think
we're gonna get it on car ride. Can you come down yesterday and uh
and and just grab a lot ofmy stuff? So see, yeah,
sure, right. I take thehour and a half drive to Delaware,
which it sucks. It's cause Igo back roads. I take like Route

(37:15):
forty by Cowtown or Rodeo. Oh, I know where you're headed yet,
right, So and then it's it'snot bad once you get over the Delaware
Memorial. It's it's only like tenminutes down the road. But uh so
I get there. Now I'm notthinking when me and you get here in
the morning, it's a little chili. So like I left from here,
so I had a hoodie on yesterday. So now I'm driving and once again

(37:35):
I'm in the car so I haveair conditioning on. I'm not I'm not
thinking about what it's like outside.So I get the Delaware her dorm.
She lives on the very top floor, no elevator, no air condition that's
shocking, man. And so nowI'm moving all this stuff up and down,
up and down, up and down. And it was that thing where
like she's even looking She's like,why do you have a hoodie on?

(37:58):
Yeah? Yeah? And I waslike, because I had no idea.
Yeah one I thought, I youknow, I thought the media, as
a responsible adult, you would havehad this waiting outside for me when I
got there. But no, wehad to move it all up and down.
I'm looking at Yeah, it's likeyou have no guy friends that could
have moved this stuff for you.Yeah, that seems like that's a that's
a student helping a student thing,Like even the college know the parents have

(38:19):
to go through all this. Maybeyou do a student helping student day.
Were they all going to hang out, they get to drink a little bit,
and they just put their stuff downby the curb. Well, it
was kind of weird because it waskind of a ghost town. Like she
has one of the last finals inthe college and so like today, I
think they got to get everybody out, so a lot of kids have already
left, so it was it waskind of weird. Now there was a
group of kids in the hallway justkind of hanging out, you know,

(38:42):
being college kids, right, theydon't want to know home that they probably
hate their house. Maybe they wereplaying hacky Sack. I don't know.
So they're they're in the hallway andI got to walk down the hallway to
use the bathroom, right, Igotta go take a leak. I'm just
I'm just me. I'm just acool college kid in your hoodie, in
my hoodie. So so I walkedby the kids. There's like four or
five kids, and uh, andI go, don't worry, guys,

(39:06):
I'm not a narc. Dude.These kids just I didn't even respond.
They just looked. They just lookedat me, and they're like, what,
Yeah, well there's no fun anymore. Yeah, it's like what like
what like guys, like, Iknow, I know you guys are probably
up to no good. Like,yeah, I'm not a nark. I'm
not gonna, you know, likeI'll rat you out. They just they're

(39:27):
like, uh, kids, yougot any coke? Hey? You guys
want me to buy you cigarettes andbeer? Stranger danger level three. I
guess they don't. They don't.They don't take into account the kids could
be there when it's warm, likeit seems like it's miserable living. We
and the problem is and then it'ssuper cold in the winter when we uh,

(39:49):
when we moved her in because youknow, once again college you moved
in in August. It was itwas rough man that first, like monthes
Hot, it was. Yeah,it was bad. Now next year she
gets in an air condition dorms.So she's happy about that. Well that's
nice. Well do and then Ido anything to embarrass my daughter. So
we're walking down the stairs, right, I'm sweaty, I'm in my hoodie.
It never dawned on me I couldjust take the hoodie off. Yeah.

(40:12):
Right, So then, uh,these two kids, like a young
they're like friends or a couple orwhatever. College kids are walking up the
stairs. We're walking down the stairsand I was like, I was like,
what up, homies, And mydaughter's like, what are you doing?
And really loud, I go,see I know how to talk to
college and kids. Boomer's fun.Yeah, I mean it didn't once again,

(40:37):
I mean, we just got intoso much trouble in college and it
just didn't look like these kids do. Now. There was some broken bottles
outside of the doorway of her dorm, which made me made me proud.
Okay, they're still drinking. Thatmeans somebody was doing something fun. You
know how much alcohol? Did youhave to pack up and bring home any
playing bottles or did she finish themoff in this semester. I'm sure that

(40:58):
that it's all Yeah, I'm surethat's all done. The Bartles and James
were all I said. I said, it sucks for because her last night
and the dorm was last night,but she's got to get up this morning
and take a final. So shecouldn't even like have one last party.
Yeah, like one big finale.Yeah, you don't have school and like
her roommate already left, so shehad the room to herself. And I'm
like, uh, it sucks,like you got to get up early and
take a final. All the kidsknow how to party like we used to.

(41:21):
She said she had a pretty fundorm. Like she said that there's
a hole in her screen. Shemight get fine for that, And I
said, why is there a holein the screen of the window, Because
one of her friends threw a potatothrough it? Okay, and that would
be you years ago, one hundredpercent also, and this was a cool
move when they first got there.I guess the school screwed up or the

(41:45):
kid dropped out. But there wasa room like a like a like a
dorm room on their floor that hadno one living in it, but it
was unlocked. So for a while, for a couple of weeks, they
got away with making that like aparty room. That is fun. Yeah,
until the until the RA shut itdown. You don't have to clean
out because he even said the RAsaid, look, if you guys don't

(42:06):
get in trouble and just keep itlow, I don't care. And of
course you know somebody had tod.I think somebody smashed somebody with a chair
or something, or through a potatoto a screen. That nonsense. Yeah,
I told her, I said,I'm not paying for the screen.
Maybe potato kid can can pay forit. What are you paying tuition?
How about you just fixed that screen? Maybe that one's on the house.
It's insane how you can't I meanjust really, I mean, at fifty

(42:30):
five thousand pop for every kid inthere, you can install air conditioning' damn,
look, uh we we are back. What'll do a think called you
think you have a drop, youthink you've got it bad. I don't
think we have it bad. OnTwitter, a guy who's an investor cleans
he's up two hundred and seventy onepercent this year. He has a strategy

(42:53):
that revolves around hanging out at costcos. Chris Bake says he scopes the park
for people driving about a car that'sworth about one hundred grand and watches them
go to the return line for somethinglike a nine dollars item. Well,
then strike up a conversation and findout where they work. Then he goes
long on that stock and he saidit's worked out to the point where he's

(43:17):
up on his portfolio two hundred andseventy one percent this year. So he
finds out who's returning and find outwhere they work. I wish I was
smarter when it came to the stockmarket. Yeah, so he said that
that these people are real money,like mighty hungry. Sure you're driving one
hundred and twenty five thousand dollars car, but you're you're returning a bottle of

(43:37):
ketchup. It's a smart guy,right. So Yeah, so then he
goes finds out where they work andthen invests in that company. Wow,
but I don't wal go. Ilike, yeah, go long on that.
I think means you're in for thelong haul because shorting it is bad.
Yeah, I do know that.I only know that from that movie
with the guy from the Office,The Big Short. It's a great movie,

(43:58):
by the way, and I lovehow they dumb it down for you
by having the hot chick from woofof Wall Street in a bathtub telling you,
uh, dumbing down the stock marketfor you. Yeah, I got
a guy. Well, I knowwe both know a guy who does day
trading, but I don't know.Man, that's stressful. He's like,
yeah, I can win seventy Ican get seventy five grand in a minute,
or I can lose seventy f It'slike a minute. It's like Dana

(44:19):
White and is gambling. He'll hegambles like two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
a hand, like you got toyou gotta go. If you're gonna be
a day trader, you gotta goin big yep to win big. Over
the course of his life, it'sbeen estimated that Snoop Dog has smoked one
hundred thousand blunts, and now oneof them is up for auction to the
highest bidder. The Snoop Dog memorabiliaauction has hit realist dot Com fans can

(44:45):
pick up clothing, jewelry, handwrittenset list, and half of a smoked
blunt. Right now, it's goingprices four hundred and eighty four dollars.
There's about twenty five days left onthe auction. That's not terrible if you
really want to if you were ado you smoke it? Do you hang
on to? We gotta put itin a little glass thing man hanging up
on the wall. Uh okay,this is probably smart. I get this.

(45:08):
Uh. New York's Hudson Fire Departmenthas issued an important warning the homeowners.
Don't use gasoline when trying to starta fire inside your house. I
almost okay, I almost did thatwith a fire pit the other night.
But go ahead. Well there's soyou're supposed so gasoline I think is okay
because it doesn't explode, right,But I think there's one it's either kerosene

(45:30):
or diesel that when you light itit like it'll it'll make like an explosion.
I don't know which one. Weshould just put those kerosene heaters in
our houses. We had two,one on each floor. Yeah, so
I there's there's one that I knowyou're not supposed to start like like if
you're having a big, a bigwhat's that bonfire? Because did you ever

(45:51):
see the videos where like the guysthey drench it and then they light it
and plus up and then the guythat tries to pour it all while it's
lit and it goes back into thecontent and that guy lights him stuff on
fire and his body. Yeah,it's always funny watching him run around the
yard on fire. So it comesfrom an incident last weekend where heavy smokers
reported coming from a home's chimney.Turns out the homeowner had tried to get

(46:12):
some action going in their fireplace byusing paper soaked in gasoline. Could you
just like the paper? Did youneed the gasoline with the paper? This
is why they make fire logs tomuch exactly. It took an hour to
extinguish the flames. Uh. So, as a rule, the fire department
is saying, uh, don't useheavy flammable fuel to light indoor fires.

(46:34):
It's something that shouldn't be really needto be said. Uh, But they
said, hey, we're just lettingyou know. Bad idea. And once
again, I don't I would neverthink about because now your house is gonna
smell a gasoline. Yeah, yeah, just a dumb move all the way
around. Little What are you doing? It's summer? True? What are
you doing late in a fire Looknice? Man? You want the ambiance?

(46:58):
Yeah, like we let our Welet our fireplace Christmas time just because
it looks cool. Do you knowI shut the fireplace down all winter because
our gas pill was so outrageous.Yep, yeah it was. It was
it. I even put a littlenote saying, do not do not touch
this part. It's basically it's likehaving a grill running constantly. You're paying
for that. I couldn't believe itin our house, stupid big ceilings.
It all just goes up to thetop of that ceiling where no one lives.

(47:21):
And you know what they do.They hide it in that little light
switch because it's not a you justflipped to switch on and you got fired.
I got a little remote, dodo that's it? Dude? I
I I hid the remote. Thereyou go. Those people they have a
bad you not so much. Onehundred point sevens exl so Outh Jersey's rock
station is the XL one shall I'llask you because I was stumped. Okay,

(47:44):
if a if an eleven year oldwant to ask you what a d
head is what do you say?Okay? Is he my kid or is
he someone else? Okay? Mykid brought up the fact, and I
listen, I know the I knowthe teacher he's talking about. So at
the dinner table, not knowing,I don't think he understands it's it's not
an okay word to say, especiallyat the dinner table and in front of

(48:05):
your mom. He says, mymy teacher is a d head, right,
full d head comes out. I'min shock, I'm laughing. My
wife's in shock. She's not laughing. So I said, listen, man,
you can't say that word. Butif he was to ask me,
well, what is it? Whatis a d head? Then do you
go the scientific, the actual whatit is? The slang? Okay,

(48:29):
the slang. I don't need tomake sure I'm anatomically correct what I'm describing
it now. It's it's a guy'sa jerk, because I don't know even
he knows. I don't even knowthat the D is what you know,
the C word? What what youcall that. I'll listen to my my,
uh my little guy and his friends, right and they won't know I'm
I'm around or you know, theythey don't know. I can hear him,

(48:52):
and dude, they all use cursewords. They use him in like
it's stupid ways, but it's theythink it's it's it's they think they're cool,
and we all did. We thoughtit was cool because with our friends,
we think it's, you know,something that older people do. So
look at us, we're dangerous andbadass. Eh. You know, when
a little kid curses, it's funny. I know years ago and this is

(49:15):
probably sad, but I know heused the F word when he hit his
foot on a drawer or something,so he must have heard. I'm gonna
say, mommy say it when Mommywas a little frustrated. But he used
it correctly, so I can't.I can't fault him for that. But
yeah, he just dropped. Myteacher's a d head. I'm like,
ah, well, I know whoyou're talking about. She might be it's

(49:35):
funny. You can't say that.Man are too oldest. They curse with
reckless abandonment, to the point whereI had to pull my one son aside
and be like, yeah, you'recursing too much in the house, Like
yeah, yeah, like like immediately, imagine me, I gotta come to
you and be like, yo,layoff, You're the voice of reason,
right and then uh. And thenmy daughter is a freshman in college.
She doesn't curse it all in frontof us, and then something like every

(50:00):
now and then it'll slip because she'seighteen years old, yes you know,
and uh, and she like apologizesand I'm like, it's okay, it's
okay, Like I know how youare when I'm not around, it's okay
to curse. I still think it'sfunny to curse in front of my mom,
which comes over for dinner. Nowthere's words I don't say. I'm
not dropping the real C word orthe P word, but yeah I do.

(50:20):
I'll drop I'll drop some real,real lines in front of mine.
I could like, I gotta grabmy son because he'll drop uh like F
bombs in front of my mom.Yeah. I'm like, I'm like,
that's your mom, dude, Like, let's you know, let's not drop
a heavy F bomb in front ofmy mom. Luckily, an hour later
