Speaker 1 (00:03):
Wake Up, Wake up.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Now, in a world of dull, mediocre radio, in a
time of regulations and rules, under the scrutiny of bosses
and management, one show breaks all the rules to deliver entertaining,

(00:31):
compelling and educated radio and stand above.

Speaker 4 (00:36):
All the rest. And this show.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Isn't it?

Speaker 4 (00:51):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Man?

Speaker 4 (00:52):
What's happening? Good morning? Good morning, good morning morning. You
gotta get into this Penguin show. I got you know what,
my I have no attentions like I just don't.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
That's why I go back and I look these old
shows up, because it's just I don't have to worry
about it.

Speaker 4 (01:06):
I was talking yesterday, what did you hear the Sopranos
on him?

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Was watching the Sopranos man, I was like, the Penguin
is one of the best shows on TV. And he
doesn't even have anything to do with the comics. It
doesn't even bring up Batman, and it's it's so good.
And uh, the guy, the English guy is good, good
looking guy who plays Penguin.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
They ugly him up for the show. He's he's really good.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
But there's this woman who plays like the villain in
the show and she's spectacular. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I tuned
in for about I don't know, like twenty five minutes,
and I'm sitting there, but I got other things on
my mind, and I'm like, I'm twenty five minutes into
the show.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
I didn't even know what's going on. I can't. I
think my hearing is going so it's hard for me
to hear.

Speaker 5 (01:48):
Because it's not like it's not like loud like a
Hangover movie where I can hear the jokes.

Speaker 4 (01:52):
I'm like, what I get up? What did you say?
What did I miss? Is it something substantial to the show?
I guess because everyone in my house is used to it.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
But like, we had company over on Sunday to watch football,
and my wife's cousin was like, you do you understand
how loud your TV is? And I was like, what,
it sounds fine? Like it sounds fine to me. Yeah,
what are you talking about?

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. Man.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
I think we rarely put headphones on. That's what I need,
well soon time where I can put headphones on it
because my wife will yell at me all the time
because I can't hear anything. A lot of times, I'm
just ignoring.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
It's called selective hearing.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
And but it's because for twenty going on twenty five years,
I just put headphones on and so I just have,
Like right now, I have this stupid background music blaring
in my ears.

Speaker 4 (02:40):
Yeah. They say it's terrible for your ears. Yeah, I'm sure, man. Yeah,
just sitting there on your head. Everybody, it is Wednesday.

Speaker 5 (02:48):

Speaker 4 (03:08):
Good morning, everybody doing live. I can all write it
and we'll do.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
It lit and things sucks.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
I'm Scotty, good morning.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
You're some news quote use on a Wednesday before being
liquidated earlier this year. Republic Bank, Dude, they built a
bunch of banks around here. They look nice to men.
They're all glass, they're all glass beautiful. Apparently they were
the world's worst company.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
Let's make those in the tire shops.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Now they avoided lending potential home buyers planning the purchase
property in communities of color in New Jersey. Apparently that's
coming from investigators yesterday the New Jersey State of General's
Office New Jersey Attorney General's Office, I found the bank
had a history of redlining, an illegal practice where lenders
intentionally declined to approve a home loan to people of color,

(04:08):
mostly black, Hispanic and Asian communities. They were seized by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At the FDIC, the bank
had fifteen branches in New Jersey and were acquired by
Fulton Bank. And Fulton Bank didn't even do anything. They
put like cardboard signs on the walls and they're like, yeah,

(04:30):
we're a Fulton Bank now, but I I think everything
still says republic here.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
By the way, redlining, it will be on your real
estate exam. We learn all about that. Yeah you can't
do that, No you can't.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
That's part the part of the reason that the bank
closed out. TGI Fridays abruptly closed down more than fifty
locations yesterday, including five here in New Jersey. We will
no longer have TGI Fridays in Bridgewater, Cherry Hill, North Brunswick, Piscataway,
and watch Home. It's unclear how many employees were affected
by the closures. The closures also took place in New York, California.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
And Ohio. So that's TGI Fridays.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
By the way, like twenty years ago, you would never
think that TGI Fridays will go out of business. No,
it was a hotspot man, this competition, Now, this is.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
Kind of sad. Man.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Terry Garr, she passed away yesterday at the age of
seventy nine. Young frankensign Toutsie. She was the wife in
Mister Mom, so she was everywhere in the late seventies
and early eighties.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
She died.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
She had a multiple scoliosis, surrounded by her friends and family.
They said, so, yeah, she's been unwell.

Speaker 4 (05:41):
Since about two thousand and seven.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
So it's sad because, dude, like I said, she was,
Terry Garr was everywhere.

Speaker 4 (05:50):
Yeah, she died from MS. MS. I don't think you
die from MS.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
I think it's one of those things where you die
from things that you get from having MS.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
Apparent, all the fundraisers I did as a kid where
I would go door to door and say how much
will you donate per mile that I walk?

Speaker 4 (06:05):
All went to MS. So I guess it didn't help everybody. Yeah,
because it was MS.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
It was like your back, your spine got all, you know,
crooked and everything. It's a lot more than that. Yes,
the end result is you know, you're thinking.

Speaker 5 (06:19):
Of scoliosis, Well, isn't this multiple scolios?

Speaker 4 (06:23):
This is this is this is.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
A lot of scolios. Your whole body is it just
becomes it starts shutting down. Scolios is in multiple places,
is what you're saying. You're thinking of what the gym
teacher made you do in school to see if your
spine was straight.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
Yeah, which is weird.

Speaker 5 (06:39):
So you're gonna get this strange Doctor's gonna have me

out of the glove.

Of the trough, you know. But now you're hungry. It's
take o'clock. Exactly where were you at five? Look we
get back, well, Joe Rack news for you.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
Bruce Springsteen has rejected the idea that he's a billionaire.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
Of course he's a billionaires.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
In August, Forbes reported that Bruce had crossed the ten
figure mark, saying, despite his discomfort with the trappings of wealth,
the Garden State's original guitar hero as a mass of
substantial fortune over six decades, which they say is about.

Speaker 4 (15:13):
One point one billion dollars.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
The business magazine admitted that no one in the musician's
organization confirm that, but he also did sell the rights
to his music for five hundred million dollars a couple
of years ago.

Speaker 4 (15:26):
Yeah, I'm hearing he's all wrapped up in this diddy
thing too, is he?

Speaker 5 (15:30):
No?

Speaker 3 (15:30):
I just made that up.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
I was gonna say. I kind of like him politically,
so I hope he is wrapped up in the diddy thing.
I saw. I saw him a couple of months. Oh
the last month. I want to go see him.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
Hey, I I dude, Early Springsteen. I love Early Springsteen.
Actually starting to get into eighty Springsteen a little bit more.
You know, if he shut his mouth about politics, it
would be great. But uh, you know that story a
couple of years ago that came out where he was
at like a state park at a point. Kids were

(16:00):
there and he was on his motorcycle and they and
they had him to.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
Do a shot with them.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
But then but then a cops all them and pull
them over, like you know, hey, maybe he's not you know,
such a the a hole. But then he does like
a podcast with Barack Obama that was like it's just boring,
Like for a guy who's so creative, it made so
many great.

Speaker 4 (16:22):
Hits, right, because how can you have such a boring podcast?
He's very duty. Oasis.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Fifty thousand Oasis tickets in the UK are going to
be canceled, and I kind of like this. They're trying
to stop people from buying up all the tickets and
then reselling them for like ridiculous amounts of money. So
what they're doing now is they're finding out if these
tickets are on sale on a third party that they'll

(16:50):
they can cancel the right because now everything's electronic and
everything is emailed.

Speaker 4 (16:54):
Yeah, so they.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Can cancel the tickets if they find that you're you're
just you know, you're trying to gouge people for these
concert tickets and.

Speaker 4 (17:05):
That man, you buy tickets, you get to the ticket
thing and it's canceled. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Well, I mean once again, I don't I think they're
trying to cancel it from the people selling the tickets.

Speaker 4 (17:14):
You almost have to sell them to that name and
then that's it.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
So you were only supposed to So this is only
in the UK right now, this hasn't come over to
the US yet. You can only buy four tickets per family.
But the problem is these these like third party people
are like just making up names, right, so like you
know they're getting when they're supposed to only get four tickets,
they end up getting like, I don't know, thirty tickets
and then they sell them. Let's say the tickets were

(17:38):
fifty bucks a pop. They're selling them now for like
one thousand and fifteen hundred dollars. I saw that when
I saw Springsteen, Like I said, I saw them last month,
and the cheapest tickets, right, but dude, you're talking nosebleef.

Speaker 4 (17:52):
It's two hundred bucks. Wow.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
Yeah, right, And so I was like, you know, luckily
it was at the baseball stadium, so I could just
kind of do standing room. But I'm like, oh, just
a walk in the door two hundred dollars. Let's go
back to the old days where you stand in line
at the stadium and.

Speaker 4 (18:06):
You pay cash at the gate through. The last concert
I did that for was Kiss in ninety six.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
Wow, they put the makeup back on, and I remember
we took the day off of school and all my
buddies we went to the Spectrum and that's because that's
where the box office was, and we and we stood
in line with a bunch of knuckleheads dressed up his
Kiss and waited it in line. Either that or you
could you could go to the mall. I remember that

(18:36):
you could go to them that we grew up by
the Echelon mall. But then down here Boscovs also had
a they had a ticketmaster jelly roll. You know he's uh,
you know, he's big star now right, you know he's
a country star. I think you got to start rapping.
But before that, he was in jail. He went, he

(18:58):
got locked up for a felony charge of arm robbery.
And now he said he wants to make it up
to the people that he robbed and h and give
him some money.

Speaker 4 (19:08):
Nice's good for him.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
So he knows the people, I guess he he he
wants to find out Yeah, you know where they are
and uh and he said it's accountability. He goes, I
had no business taking from them, but I was a
dumb kid doing.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
Drugs and I want to I want to make right
with them.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (19:25):
I think that's part of the program, isn't it part
of the twelve step seven steps.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Well, he's not sober by any means, you know, No,
he's not sober at all. So he's just he's just
doing this on his own. He he likes to do
uh drugs and he likes to drink and his white.
It's a crazy story when you really dig into jelly roll.
His wife was a prostitute up till like three years ago. Yeah,

(19:49):
and they own it too, like a high end like
a high end escort. And yeah, like and so until
he hit it big, Like that's how they made their money,
was her escort?

Speaker 4 (20:00):
Did I kids work hard? Get some tattoos on your face?
Be fine, there you go? Do I tell you what.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Man, there's a guy and he's a poet and his
name is Harry Chapin. You know who Harry Chapin is
Harry Chapin. No, he's got two big bangers.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
Are you talking about? The Cats in the Cradle? Cats
in the Cradle?

Speaker 1 (20:30):
And he's got this song Taxi Right, but dude, you
go and it was when your kids start to get older,
Like you listen to Cats in the Cradle and it
just hits you differently, right, Like it's like, dude, I
get what the guy's saying.

Speaker 4 (20:43):
The kids are growing up and not paying attention to
dad anymore. Yeah, man, that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
And right, and it's like, you know, throw them the
car keys, I'll see you later.

Speaker 4 (20:53):
Yeah, Can I have them? Please. Yeah, my wife scared
the death of those days and so it's scary. Man,
I get it, you know, like world, Like.

Speaker 1 (21:01):
My wife and I are only a couple of years
away from being empty nesters, and I think it's it
terrifies my wife because she's like, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
If I like you, yeah, just you and her, right yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
So so I'm listening to uh to Harry Chapin the
other night and uh and I'm like, dude, like the
song's like really hit me right, And I'm like I'm
like yeah, man, like like this happened a couple of
years ago with Paul Simon's Graceland. Like I'm listening to
it and all of a sudden, I like get it.
It's a song about being middle aged and like the

(21:36):
things that happened and you start to realize when you're
middle aged. And I'm listening to it, I'm like I
get Like, I finally get it. Like as a kid,
I love the song, but I never got it. Now
I get it, like you start calculating your age that
I know I'm more than halfway through my life.

Speaker 4 (21:52):
Just yeah, just what you know, the the lyrics, I
guess what they mean and uh.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
And then dude, I'm driving around. I got to give
credit to where credit is due. That's to my wife.
She turned me on to Madonna radio. Dude, I gotta
say we had some bangers growing up. You listen to
Madonna radio, it's just one hit after another.

Speaker 5 (22:20):
We had that immaculate collection CD. Yeah, it's like it's
like right down the line man.

Speaker 4 (22:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
But then you start to get see this is what
the you know what it's kind of cool is like
you start to get the music that is connected to her,
like you know what that's like her? And dude, I'm
I'm driving, I'm driving by myself right like on a
Saturday morning at seven am, and I'm jamming out to
Madonna Radio. Yep, that you are. Yeah, And I'm like, dude,

(22:47):
banger after banger after banger, and I'm like, man and
so and and like I think about it, and I'm like,
do the kid today have that type of music that
is gonna live that long?

Speaker 4 (23:05):
No? No, I don't think they do.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
No, man, No, I don't think the songs now man,
especially pop music, they come out and they go away, yeah,
and you never and you never hear them again.

Speaker 5 (23:16):
And I was always connected. To like, I don't know, man.
Growing up, it was always something like, dude, I.

Speaker 4 (23:20):
Was jamming out the borderline. You know what great borderline is? Yeah? Yeah,
it's good stuff.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah, dude, Yeah, who do we have now? I mean,
I don't, I don't know. My kids turned into like.

Speaker 4 (23:28):
But even like this.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
Okay, So, like say Taylor Swift, biggest star in the world, right,
biggest pop star in the world. She puts out a song,
it's out for a while and then it goes away
and you never hear it again.

Speaker 5 (23:38):
And like when we heard when our favorite song hit
the radio, it was an exciting thing because we didn't
hear it all the time. I couldn't just like my
kids say they build a playlist on Spotify. I was like,
you don't know how easy it is for you. You
just find a song you like it, you hit the
plus button, and you add it to it. I used
to sit by the radio man and my favorite song,
I'd have the cassette. It'd be a play and record
be pushed down with pause. Yeah, you'd wait for the

(23:59):
radio guy to stop, and it usually talked up intros
back then, so you barely got like the full song
and you recorded the song, and that's how you got where.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
You had to buy. You had to go out and
buy the song. That's what it is.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
You actually buy an hour, you go to buy a
whole album just to hear one song.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
Yes, man, because I have it easy now, you know
what it's like everything else. You know, you're not putting
the effort in.

Speaker 5 (24:18):
You don't appreciate it the way you should because you
didn't have to put the work in to get it.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
But I'll tell you, man, even you know, I went
down to my daughter's college for parents weekend and all
her friends, man, you know frat kids. They they were
playing songs like from the nineties. That's because, yeah, because
it has staying power, has staying power, and I don't
think songs have staying power anymore when you look back
in the nineties two it was a fun time. My daughter,

(24:46):
my daughter is obsessed, and yeah, she goes, I dude,
I I I lived it perfectly because I was ten
in nineteen ninety and I was twenty when it hit
two thousand, so like, I live that perfect life. And
then where yeah, where Like I was still a little
kid when it started, but I was aware. And then

(25:06):
by the mid nineties I'm a teenager loving life, and
then I'm adult when it all ends.

Speaker 4 (25:11):
Yeah, I graduated ninety one, man, nineties were fun, fun time.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
Manah yeah, and and so uh yeah it's I'm I'm
listening like I said, like and even like this Harry
Chapin man, like this song's fifty years old.

Speaker 4 (25:25):
Yeah, and that it makes sense. It's still a it's
still a banger.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
It makes sense, Like I said the Paul Simon Graceland,
I'm listening to it.

Speaker 4 (25:32):
I'm like, like I get.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
It all now, Like I like I had a feel
the dreams awakening, Like my dad used to think that
Mike and the Mechanics song used to apply to us
in the living years. I'm like, that has nothing to
do with you and I's relationship at all.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
Yeah, isn't that his dad like dying?

Speaker 1 (25:49):
I couldn't Yeah, yeah, I couldn't wait for my dad
to die. I'd like I couldn't wait that song finally
came true. Yeah, yeah, finally you died. But I never
remember remember my Like, my dad liked music, but I
never remember him being like hit and being like all right,
like I get it, I get this song. The one

(26:10):
memory I have is driving around in the Chevy Chevelle.
My dad had a Rappers Delight on and I think
he had a cassette and my mom would make him
turn it down when they cursed, but it was it
was the word was damn. I'm like, oh, you're making
him turn the word damned down. You guys fight every
night and I hear worse than that, and you're turning
the word damn down and Rappers Delight. You're gonna know

(26:32):
this And for some reason, I just remember my dad
loving this song.

Speaker 4 (26:35):
Was h do you have your finger on.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
The pulse of music because you're the South Jersey's number
on mobile?

Speaker 4 (26:40):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (26:41):
I got it? Sugar Pie, honey Bunch? Yeah, the four
times four tops. Yeah, if I can't help myself, he
loved that song. Song yeah, yeah, man, we were a
Motown family too.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
Soul. Yeah, he loved he loved that stuff. Just driving
around in his Nissan two forty s exit song, just
chamming out to that. Look Uh we uh we get back.
Uh We're gonna do some headlines.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
But I got right now pair of tickets for a
Tom Petty tribute band.

Speaker 4 (27:08):
If you want it, uh down the Torpedoes.

Speaker 1 (27:11):

nine six Rock Station.

Speaker 5 (27:16):

I promise you it will. I Uh, I don't mention
any names I don't have. I'm not mentioned. If they're listening,
they're gonna know what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
I uh, we had kids over this past weekend, and uh,
you know, once again, my kids are older.

Speaker 4 (27:51):
I hate little kids, like, dude, I can flat out
say it.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
Little kids suck. All kids, all kids. I don't want
them anywhere I don't want to do dude. They they
wreck stuff, like I'm still cleaning up stuff. I'm finding
stuff on their couches, I'm finding stuff ripped out of
my garage, and I'm like, and dude, the parent, there's something.
If you're under the age of thirty five, they have

(28:16):
this thing where they just let their kids go nuts
and let everyone else parent the kids. Yeah, I'm watching
I'm watching this kid make demands at my house and
the parents are going along with it. I'm watching this
kid like it sounds dumb, but it's like little things
that my kids know to do, like when you get
up from the table, you put your plate in the sink.

(28:38):
I'm watching kids just get up from a table and
not do any of that. I'm watching kids run through
like a this is the I don't get this at all,
and I get all my kids about this when they do.
It is if I'm talking with another adult, it sounds
it's kind of like like I feel like I'm being strict,
but I'm not.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
To me, I'm just trying to teach manners.

Speaker 5 (28:56):
If I'm talking to an adult and a kid interrupts
a conversation over and over again, I'm like, doesn't your
kid fear you in any way that I don't know
my kids? My wife knows that my my wife knows
that my kids do they do? They are scared of
me when it comes to times, Man, they are afraid
I went supposed to be afraid of You're the parent.

Speaker 4 (29:14):
I want my kids to be scared of me. I
want my uh my daughter's boyfriends to be scared of me. Yeah, right,
like there's a that's that is what I want. Yeah,
do you remember your parents?

Speaker 1 (29:26):
Did they ever have like dinner parties or have like
friends over. Dude, we never were allowed to hang out.
It was go upstairs. Yeah, it was kids never hung out.
Go to your room. We're having a party. You're not invited. Yeah,
we fall into that, man. It because we had a
couple of we hang out with when we go to
the beach, and like, the parents are all in the tent
were I was kind of sitting around drinking and talking

(29:48):
and like the kid that wants to take his chair
and put it in the circle, the parents are like no, no, no, no, no,
you go away because we're we're talking about things. And
I don't even And when that happens, man, I don't
even hold back. I still talk the way I'm gonna talk.
I'm like, yeah, then you're the parent. You tell your
kid that this is an adult time. I'm not scaling
my conversation back. Dude, we have a I won't say
who he is, but we have a mutual friend. And

(30:10):
he did that to his girlfriend where me and him
were having a conversation and we're kind of deep in
conversation about something heavy or something and uh, and she
was trying to chime in and he turns to her
and he goes enough you're not.

Speaker 4 (30:23):
Part of the conversation. I know who this is. I like, oh.

Speaker 5 (30:30):
Wow, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know exactly who you're talking about.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (30:35):
Like, I'm watching I'm watching a kid make make demands
that the parents are are doing and bending over backwards
to the point where it's it's like like buy me this,
and like buy you this, and he goes on, he
goes on.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
I love the guy, but he goes on. He's like, Okay,
just put it in the cart. I'm like, if you
give your kid, now, listen, my kids have a lot
of things. Believe me, I'm kind of tone the line
where I think I'm spoiling them, but I also don't.
I don't just hand it to them, but they do
have to earn it in some type of way. Now,
I'm I'm pretty sure I'm just handing it to them.
I think I'm doing.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
More than I am.

Speaker 5 (31:09):
But I know, man, if if it's not going to
do stuff you've ye, then you get to go on
video games like go do stuff.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Did do you remember the Twilight Zone movie with the
kid with no mouth with the kids the kid, The
whole story was that the kid ran the house right
and then shared death anybody did anything that the kid
didn't want, he would go and take their mouth away,
or he would go and kill them or something.

Speaker 4 (31:35):
He took away his uncle's mouth or his dad's mouth.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
And and so everyone was terrified of this little kid.
And dude, I watch parents and they're like that. Yeah,
they're terrified of their own children.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (31:45):
And if and if you have to bribe your kid
to be for his behavior to be, I don't know,
not you know, to to be what it should be.
Then and you're doing the wrong thing too. And I
want to tell them, man, it's I don't know, you're
not helping the kid by doing this, because there's a
real world out there now. He's not he's not gonna
be ready for it. Man, No, the kids be ready

(32:05):
for it. No, And that's what that's what we're running into.
It's been a generation of kids that had been doing
that and now look look at the world.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (32:15):
Like if my kids spilled a full plato wings in
our neighbors our neighbor's theater room, I don't know, like
he would go, We would clean it up, he'd be
very sorry, he'd be ontllege my kids, I say, And
I warned my kids and said, listen, how you how
you act reflects on me and your mother. And we're
good parents. I know we are. If you act like
an a hole in here, I was like, bro, there
is going to be hell to pay afterwards. You say please,

(32:37):
thank you, You thank them for their time and everything else.
You drop them on the floor, a whole plate of
wings in your buddy's theater room. You pick them up.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
I have a feeling that a kid dropped the whole plate.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
Looked at me like I was in the wrong, Like
like I like I did something wrong.

Speaker 7 (32:53):
Dude.

Speaker 4 (32:53):
By My wife's aunt brought damn. This is the thing.
She's got one of the stupid dogs, like your dog,
and she brings it over. It's a puppy. She's like,
can I bring it?

Speaker 6 (33:03):
Man?

Speaker 4 (33:03):
All right?

Speaker 1 (33:04):
So I was like, okay, whatever, And I was like,
all right, what I like, bring your dog. And so
someone spilled something on my carpet, and so she yells
the dog didn't do it, but no one attempted to
clean up what was still spilling on the carpet.

Speaker 4 (33:19):
Somebody even if you didn't spill it.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
So you yelled, you got up and you yelled about
how the dog didn't do it. Okay, but it's still
spilled the carpet.

Speaker 4 (33:28):
But I didn't do it. Yeah, I'm in the kitchen
like I like, so someone clicked, like I like that
kind of stuff dries nuts. Man, I don't know. I
just I couldn't look at a spill. And even if
I'm someone, how even when I spilled coffee like in
a wa wa like, I still cleaned it up. Like absolutely,
you do, dude, at absolutely, Look we we get back,

(33:52):
We'll get lost a friend by the way over.

Speaker 7 (33:54):
The oh why anything thirty on noting anything racket rock
or roughing at the long Frash.

Speaker 4 (34:14):
There's some trash for you.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
H So there's a lot of people saying now that
that Jason Kelson, right, the Kelsey brothers are everywhere, and
it might be getting a little too much.

Speaker 4 (34:27):
Dude, I said it weeks ago, too much Kelsey. Well,
so here's the new thing.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
Every commercial, the halftime show, ESPN's gonna going in hardcore.

Speaker 4 (34:36):
Jason, right, he retired. Now he's part of the Monday
night football team. They want to give him his own
late night talk show.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
That's a lot is a lot, right, They got a
podcast that's very successful. Plus you have to Taylor Swift
stuff with his brother and every year and this is
this is kind of a cool thing that he did
before you know.

Speaker 4 (34:56):
The Kelsey Brothers exploded. Jason Kelsey and a bunch of
the Philadelpha Eagles would put out a Christmas album and
all the money goes to chair. It's kind of a joke.
It's a goof. It's a goof.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
But like this year, I could you have like Stevie
Nicks on the album. Like it's like you know, once again,
it's kind of gotten big. And of course Travis Kelsey
is on the album. And they have a song that
came out yesterday called It's Christmas Time in Cleveland Heights.

Speaker 4 (35:24):
That's where they grew up, Cleveland Heights. So do you
have It's Christmas Time by the Kelsey Brothers. Yeah, yeah,
that's what I need in my life.

Speaker 5 (35:48):
Cares about Cleveland Heights, all right, So that's not very good.
So you got them and a bunch of kids and
they're just kind of singing along.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
Kid Taylor to come right and sing with you, I
think it would explode. Uh Well, Cleveland Heights is where
they grew up and their podcast is called in the
Heights so h Layton Knight shows going to be him
interviewing athletes him by himself.

Speaker 4 (36:09):
I don't know. ESPN is kind of an aspiraling.

Speaker 1 (36:15):
Because once again people can it's so easy to get
updates because ESPN used to be the spot you would
go to, yeah, and now you just go to your
phone and so uh, and they're they're pretty much given
the reins over to Pat mcavie and said, look, do
your podcast. And this is what's gonna save us, because
I don't think anybody watches Sports Center.

Speaker 5 (36:36):
I think so like like you and I, man, we're
we're watching people on TV now that are younger than
us that don't kind of get it that we're not
impressed with. So you need somebody with some type of personality.
And Jason, I'll.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
Tell you the ESPN game day, Uh for a dude
with Pat mcavee and uh Nick Saban her Saban's great
with him, and then her said herb Street, dude, I'm

they let kids kick a field goal for one hundred
thousand dollars. I'm watching Nick Saban hold the ball at

(37:09):

Speaker 4 (37:17):
The Guy. He's a guy, right, he was? He's a
magic mind. Okay, he was.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
I guess engaged to Zoey Kravitz, Lenny Kravitz's daughter. She's
the daughter of Lenny Kravitz and the girl.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
From The Cosby Show.

Speaker 5 (37:30):
The Magic Mike was like fifteen years ago, are we
still a magic Mike's shape?

Speaker 4 (37:34):

talented Terry.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
Oh? My god, ever many years ago but not recently.

Speaker 4 (38:53):
That's cool, man, We're glad. All right, we'll make it
a ZXL Workforce whatday for that?

Speaker 1 (38:58):
We have Damn the Torpedoes, a Tom Petty tribute show
that's come into resorts. All right, yeah, man, dude, And
you know it's such a sad way that he went.
I guess is uh he was He was really having
issues with his hip and he needed a hip operation.

Speaker 4 (39:17):
And he asked.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
One of the the the roadies while he was on
tour because he had uh, he had cleaned up from
drugs and alcohol, but he asked one of the roadies
is like you have anything for the pain, and the
kid like just trying to be a good kid. Like
the roadie gave him a pill and it had fetanyls. Wow,
that's what got him, man, And like, you know, so
here's a guy who kind of cleaned himself up and

(39:40):
was living the good life, but he was just hurting.
Uh and uh and that's what got him, man. That's
what's that's that's why.

Speaker 4 (39:47):
Dude, doing drugs anymore is not It's not fun. That
should be enough reap. That should be enough to close
down the border. Like that should be on Trump.

Speaker 5 (39:55):
Trump should be like, you know what, the open border
it killed Tom Petty.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
And you know what, drugs, drugs just in general are
so bad. And you know, there's so many ways I
could go with this conversation. And I know you guys
are on the blot, but I think about it a lot.
I'm an old guy, and just just just to say,
I'm seeing news articles right now where they're talking about
legalizing ketamine or for mental health.

Speaker 4 (40:22):
That's a that's another dangerous drug. Man.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
I know. Now, again, like I said, I could go
a number of ways this conversation, but we don't have
a lot of time, No, keep going. No, I just think,
you know, my humble opinion, being an old guy, they
there is a large gap between criminal justice and mental health,
and you can't it's very very hard, how do you know?

(40:49):
But but again, there's so many impacts from it. It's
if somebody with mental health kills somebody, Oh my god,
the unparticipant, the family who was impacted by that, how
do they feel. But but depending on the illness or
the sickness, what do you do other than throw them
in jail? Where do you you know, you don't want
to say incarcerate them, but where do you put them?

Speaker 4 (41:09):
Yeah, and that's the problem, to help to.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
Help them or to keep them off the streets so
it doesn't happen. So I'm thinking, as I'm reading this
ketamine article, I'm thinking, you know, is it really a
bad thing that you give these people ketamine? Because it'll
knock their ass out and they'll just sit there and
be vegetable.

Speaker 4 (41:26):
They won't do anything to kill anybody. Yeah, and now
we're then we're Kensington. But here's the problem, man.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
So so you like like even like, now, look, look,
everyone does edibles.

Speaker 4 (41:38):
Everyone you know is into the weed game. But here.
It's scary because now they're saying fentanyl is going to
start getting its way in the weed.

Speaker 7 (41:48):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
Yeah, oh it's not good. And did you read about
mushrooms in California. They're trying to legalize psilocybin and all
that stuff somewhere.

Speaker 1 (41:56):
It's yeah, mushrooms are fun thoughts dropping a lot of nie.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
I did dumb things as a kid, but I'll tell
you what man, I learned. I am done. I am
done with any of that.

Speaker 7 (42:07):
I am.

Speaker 2 (42:07):
I mean good for anybody who's into the edibles and
all that stuff I did my time as a young kid.
I'm done with all drugs. Yes, I drink, and there's
a corollary, but nothing.

Speaker 6 (42:16):
Man.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
Uh, I'll never forget. Jojo and I a couple like
maybe six months ago. We were we were doing and
I got to keep the people in private that we
were with.

Speaker 4 (42:27):
We were we were doing a thing.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
We were doing a thing and uh we were backstage.
Uh and and the people that were doing the thing
with us had broke out a bunch of cocaine. And
and Jojo had never seen anyone do cocaine before, and
he was like watching he was like watching animals at
a zoo.

Speaker 5 (42:47):
Yeah, it's like when they finally feed the tigers, like
when they bring out to me for the tiger, like, hey,
they're gonna feed the tigers.

Speaker 1 (42:52):
I watch these guys, dude, I'm like, I'm actually in
a room in a kitchen that's closed watching this.

Speaker 4 (42:58):
Whole thing go down. This is awesome. Yeah. And then
I said to my life, I was like, yeah, as
they doing there doing coke in the back, and she goes,
did you do any And I was like no.

Speaker 2 (43:10):
But I was like, I'll never forget.

Speaker 4 (43:12):
No, good, No, I gotta say.

Speaker 5 (43:13):
Man, that was the one time I'm like, boy, I
could just go over there and say, hey, let me
try this thing called cocaine.

Speaker 4 (43:18):
And I did, Yeah, you get skinny y.

Speaker 7 (43:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Well, I'll tell you I'll never forget the first time
I saw the movie Blow, an old old movie. I
forget who was in a.

Speaker 4 (43:27):
Black guy Jackson, who was Johnny's depth.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
But there, Yeah, I was like, I cannot believe they're
showing this in the movie theater. Oh my god, this
is so like out there. It just it shows. It
shows the divide over the last thirty years of how
movies and just pop culture and you know, and of
course social media I've just affected our lifestyles and we
become like not sanitized, but not immune, but we become more.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
Exceptionally definitely, we are desensitized. There's a generation of just
people being actually, you know what, it's starting to go
in the other direction. They're two, they're they're there, they
they're they.

Speaker 4 (44:08):
Care too much almost uh where, because I do like
a little bit of of of desanitization.

Speaker 2 (44:17):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all.

Speaker 4 (44:20):
Right, yeah, man, Hey John, it was it's fun.

Speaker 6 (44:22):
Man.

Speaker 4 (44:22):
You can call every day.

Speaker 1 (44:24):
You stay on hold, man, We're gonna hook you up
with all the info. H it's damn the Torpedoes, Tom
Petty Trubute band happening in resorts this weekend.

Speaker 2 (44:31):
All right, it sounds good. Thank you.

Speaker 5 (44:38):
We are the the XL Morning Show on one hundred
point seventh, the XL South Jersey's rock station.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
This was interesting, man, I haven't seen this a lot,
especially in adults. So I got i'm i'm I'm walking
into a store the other day. And it's always questionable
when you see somebody riding a bicycle to a or
because your first thought is that they lost their license.

Speaker 4 (45:04):
Right, it's not a guy.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
I could tell you know, maybe life is not treated
him super well.

Speaker 5 (45:09):
Is it a nice like I got a nice mountain
bike I spent money on. Is it a nice bike?
Or we're talking about a kid's bike? Or were right
in the middle, probably.

Speaker 4 (45:16):
In the middle, and may have even been one of
those stupid electric bikes. Was he all loganed up with
a helmet on? Was he exercise?

Speaker 1 (45:22):
Wasn't like it wasn't one of those guys who like
kill you on the weekends when you're trying to go
down on a back road somewhere. That guy and uh
and they're like doing that, like like Walt Whitman to
the beach run or whatever it is.

Speaker 4 (45:33):
You gotta the Walt patch on your arm. You're not
getting paid for it.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
So the guy gets he's on a bike, parks the
bike in front of the store.

Speaker 4 (45:43):
But I haven't seen anything like this in a while.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
His pants are like halfway down his ass, so his
whole ass crack is out.

Speaker 4 (45:55):
That used to be a big thing, man. So it
wasn't like that.

Speaker 1 (45:58):
It wasn't It wasn't like he was doing it for
a reason. Like it wasn't a kid. This was a
this is a this was a man, a man older
than me.

Speaker 4 (46:05):
It wasn't like gangster. It wasn't gangster. It wasn't one
leg up on the white man right like it was.
This was a.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
Guy who I don't know how you couldn't feel because
there was a woman who was getting out of the
car as I was getting out of my car too,
So we both saw it, like we both saw the
full moon and I and like she looked at me
and I looked at her and we just kind of shrugged.

Speaker 4 (46:28):
But I'm like, you gotta feel the breeze, right, Yeah,
I feel that.

Speaker 5 (46:31):
Yeah, Like when I like, I try and get extra
long shirts because of my belly pulls the shirts up.
So what I do is I get extra long shirts.
But I can feel like if there's any guy in
my skin that's exposed, this guy did. This guy didn't
care at all.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
Yeah, Like I'm talking like he gets off his bicycle,
half of his ass crag is just out, just just exposed.

Speaker 4 (46:49):
As he pulled the pants up. Or does he feel
not really? Yeah, kind of kind of shocking.

Speaker 5 (46:55):
Yeah, my wife kid sent me when I don't wear
a belt, She's like, we'll come down and sick. You
got a belt on him? Like I don't know. These
these pants are tight enough I can barely breathe. I
don't think I need a belt.

Speaker 4 (47:04):
The belt's just gonna hang off and not do anything.

Speaker 5 (47:07):
But I wasn't the I was at the outlets the
other day and uh, there was like a weird kiosk
place like in the middle of the stores. I don't
even know if it was legit or what they were doing.
Was it piercing pagoda almost like that? Yeah, Well, the
guy and a girl they're looking at a laptop and
he is kind of bent over, and I see the
full the full brown ass man, Like I'm not even
talking about the crack I'm talking to like, I.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
Don't know, like a full almost the full ass.

Speaker 5 (47:29):
Like, Bro, you honestly cannot feel that that you're exposing
yourself there.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
Nobody, Like it might be illegal, That might be considered
some type of sexual crime, right, Like why is that okay?

Speaker 5 (47:41):
But if the front half of my pants is down
and you can see my unit, why is that that's
not okay?

Speaker 1 (47:47):
So that's happened to me a couple of times too, man,
where I've I've walked through the store and I realized
my flies down. Dude, there's not a worse feeling.

Speaker 4 (47:55):
Oh because you don't wear underwear. Yeah yeah, well so
like I'm free like a bird.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
Remember the days, man and I used to get about
it here because the guy across the hall who wears
like these basketball shorts in remember the days, as a joke,
you drop your buddy's pants in front of everybody and
he had to pants them. Yeah, you can't do that. Yeah,
the pantsing. You can't do that anymore. That was a
big thing.

Speaker 7 (48:14):
Now.

Speaker 5 (48:14):
That was man, Hey, I don't think kids fall around
and play around like that anymore because that used to
be fun and you know, just a you know, just
a flick right on the you know, you know what
used to.

Speaker 4 (48:23):
Be a joke high school was the pantsing. And dude,
we dip it.

Speaker 1 (48:29):
Okay, So in high school, not only would we do
pants kids, we would flick kids in the balls, right,
the real quick flick.

Speaker 4 (48:39):
We we do a thing called an oil change, where.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
That is where you you stick a finger Jesus correct, right,
like you like you like you take your finger and
and and like you know, and then dude, I don't
even know how we got away with this. We would
take our coin purse out right it's uh, your your testicles.
We take it out and we we call girls over

(49:04):
in the cafeteria and say, do you want to see
our brain?

Speaker 4 (49:06):
And then we pushed. We'd push our chair out and
there's our coin purse out of our pants. Do that
now in jail, Yeah, you can't do that at all.

Speaker 1 (49:15):
At first I'd be thrown out of school and it
would be a crime.

Speaker 4 (49:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (49:19):
Yeah, I remember pulling a guy's underwear. Man, we used
to do the wedgie thing.

Speaker 4 (49:23):
I remember, Oh yeah, it was a big fat guy,
right that the big fact everyone.

Speaker 5 (49:27):
Kind of he's kind of a friend, like we were
on the same bowling team, but it got picked on.

Speaker 4 (49:32):
Shocker, he's a fat guy on the bowling team. Remember
where I was and who did it? They pulled his
underwear up.

Speaker 5 (49:37):
But he he didn't have like a real good family,
so we didn't buy like clothes like new all the time.
His underwear must have been so dry rotted that the
rim of the underwear came up over his neck. And
I'm like, this is awful, But there you go. You
talk about kids. You don't even know what bullying is.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
That's what you don't even know what it is to
be bull he played sportsman like that was at the
locker room?

Speaker 4 (49:57):
Is where that all that got? All that nonsense?

Speaker 1 (49:58):
Like we we do that man, where underwear would go
over a kid's head.

Speaker 4 (50:02):
I was a.

Speaker 5 (50:02):
Freshman on a football to We went to the Poconos
for like like a long week of like training and stuff.
Did I remember the seniors came in there and they
were beating the crap out of us, like punching the
hell out of us.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
I'm like, this is this is okay, this is a
world that I once again, you could never have ever again.
I went, we got tape. The trainer gave us tape
so we could tape a kid to the bench.

Speaker 4 (50:30):
In the locker room. How about that.

Speaker 1 (50:33):
The trainer And we told the trainer this is what
we're going to do. And he said, oh yeah, here
take this world. Yeah that's a whole different world.

Speaker 4 (50:41):
My god. This yeah, I'm being bullied. Are you let
me tell you what bullying is?

Speaker 6 (50:49):
Man?

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Yeah, this kid he may still be taped to that bench.
I don't know if I ever got him out. Look,
we we get back do a thing called you think
you have a bet, you think you've got it bad.
I don't think we have a bad there's a lack
of hotel space in Colombia. The United Nations COP sixteen

(51:12):
Biodiversity Conference is happening there. It left some delegates in
the lurge when it came to hotels. Robert Baculuku from
Uganda was one such delegate who was scrambling for accommodations
until a hotel came to the rescue.

Speaker 4 (51:26):
It's called Hotel de Sios.

Speaker 1 (51:29):
Decios means desires, and the hotel's de corps instantly told
the Ungandan why the name was significant. Motel de Seos
is one of Colombia's hourly rate hotels, where rooms come
complete with circle beds, love machines, chairs, dance poles, and
sex wings.

Speaker 4 (51:48):
They have an end of the dove too. Huh yeah, yeah,
oh yeah, it's like the crack motels across from me
here in beautiful downtown West Atlantic City. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (51:56):
The man described the accommodations as very unusual and very funny.
Hotel management was willing to remove some of the furniture
to accommodate the twelve delegates for the conference.

Speaker 4 (52:05):
Thirty five bucks a night. Wow, oh the whole night
or is that per hour? That's the whole night. Oh
was it three bucks an hour? I can imagine what cockroaches?

Speaker 2 (52:13):
You know?

Speaker 4 (52:14):
God, dude, I the other day sometimes when we leave here,
I catch the school buses and they and dude.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
So if you've never been to beautiful downtown West Atlantic City,
you should. It's it's a beautiful destination. Where a building is,
there's crack motels. Dude, these like the little kids come
out and get on the school bus from the crack motels.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
Man, it breaks your heart.

Speaker 1 (52:39):
Where are you doing your homework on that little table?
Behalf set up there with the one chair, dude? And
then it floods here constantly, so they just take the
furniture and put it out in the parking lot to dry.

Speaker 4 (52:48):
It's heartbreak, but dude, it is. It literally breaks my
heart when I watched it. Yeah, and then I just
drive to my nice neighborhood. Yeah, we'll get out of there.

Speaker 1 (52:57):
California Silicon Valley isn't a tour expensive, with average rents
starting at twenty two hundred bucks per month for a
studio apartment and up the four thousand for a two bedroom.
With that in mind, a guy in downtown San Jose
is offering a two hundred and fifty dollars Harry Potter
cubby Like, I don't know if you know Harry Potter,
but he lived under the stairs.

Speaker 4 (53:17):
Yeah it's great, but he used to lock him in there. Yeah.
So if someone wants to live under this guy stairs,
two hundred and fifty bucks a month if.

Speaker 5 (53:24):
You just need a bed and a place to delay.
But they they actually locked Harry in there, like he
couldn't get out. Yeah, a lot of people magic, you
couldn't get through that lock.

Speaker 4 (53:32):
Well, a lot of people like I. I guess there's.

Speaker 1 (53:35):
The conspiracy is that Harry was an abused child and
they locked him under the stairs, and he just made
up in his head the whole story of being like
a sorcerer. Oh while he's locked under the like he
could just to just you know, just to kind of
detach himself from being in this abusive relationship with these people.

(53:55):
I guess I want to take my mind off of
the fact I'm liking So he just made up a
whole story that he was this sorcerer and you know
he flew around with a magic wand and everything. Uh, well,
you also now two hundred and fifty bucks to live
under this guy's stairs.

Speaker 4 (54:08):
But you also will have to do chores at the
house too. All right, so you're a maid.

Speaker 1 (54:13):
Yeah, you're living under house, lifting under the stairs.

Speaker 4 (54:17):
You gotta admire a man he'll take care of his mother.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
That admiration triples when you consider that Zima, who has
been traveling all over China with his mom who's paralyzed.
He's been carrying her on his back like Yoda. When
he was just eight.

Speaker 4 (54:35):
Years old, Ma's parents.

Speaker 1 (54:37):
Were in a car accident which his father was killed
and his mother was left paralyzed. Then came the news
that her brain was regressing, so Ma decided to make
the most of the time he had left with her.
Now he takes her all over trips of China where
he carries her on his back.

Speaker 4 (54:51):
Wow, and she's a it's a full body or she
missed the limbs. No, I think she's just paralyzed. So
it's a full body. Oh my god, It's like it's
Luke and Yoda. See that's hard though, Like Yoda was
so small, Like I get that. Yeah, put a full
body on top of you. I'm like, what's that? Due
to your spine? He's got it, you know. But he's
in good shape.

Speaker 7 (55:10):
Man.

Speaker 4 (55:10):
Yeah, he can jump high when he takes mom off
of his back. It's a good cardio. There you go,
those people, they have a back. Progressive. We know there's
a lot of things.

Speaker 5 (55:20):
You launch Point sevens EXLS, Jersey's rock Stations, the XL
Morning Show.

Speaker 4 (55:27):
My wife comes up with.

Speaker 5 (55:27):
Some crazy ideas. This is what she threw up me yesterday.
She thinks people are living in the woods behind our house.

Speaker 4 (55:33):
Okay, I are Okay.

Speaker 5 (55:36):
So she's she's driving home the other day she sees
a woman with a book bag kind of dip into woods,
not not behind our home, but near where our development is.
Like the woman kind of clears the branches and goes
in with a book bag. And she thinks this woman
might be living in the woods. Now she hears noises
in the back of her woods, but I think they're deer,
squirrel or whatever you know, seems to come out of

(55:56):
their eye. Well yeah, yeah, coyo. We got coyotes screaming
back and there and everything else. She thinks people might
be living in the back of the woods. This did happen.
I had this happen, or at least it looked like
it would. When I was running a lot, I was
training for a half marathon. I'd run through the woods
back behind my house and I came into like an

(56:19):
encampment where it was like a bunch of tents and
like an old mattress just in the woods, and it
was like there was nobody there. So I don't know
if it was a band then or not, but I'm like, okay,
so somebody's definitely living here.

Speaker 4 (56:32):
So you see signs of people that might have been
a tent or anything.

Speaker 1 (56:36):
It was a couple of It was like two tents,
like a like a like an old twin mattress, you know,
some some other stuff, you know, maybe like a fire
like where they set up for like a fire. So
I'm like, either it's kids, yeah we did that man right,
or or someone is living in the woods behind my house.

Speaker 4 (56:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (56:54):
I remember those days of building forts in the back.
I guess you could kind of live in a fort
you built it well enough. Yeah, we used to do
all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (57:00):
Always I have this weird feeling and fear that, like
I have a family living in my attic. That's a
real Okay, that has happened. That's a real thing.

Speaker 5 (57:11):
It was a movie, and I think the movie was
based on I guess the story where it actually happened,
which I could.

Speaker 1 (57:16):
I don't know, I could kind of get. I mean,
I don't think it's a my attic, like I think
i'd hear it. I think occasionally because my house makes
weird noises and I'm like, is that is that? Is
that that the person living in the attic?

Speaker 4 (57:26):
Right? Right? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (57:27):
I remember that movie where they wait for the people
to leave and they kind of get out and everything
else and eat their food and stuff. Like the name
for that, I forget what the name was.

Speaker 4 (57:34):
It's crazy. Yeah, A look crazy, that's the name. I think. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (57:39):
One of those things I had to shut down is like,
I don't I don't think people are living in our woods,
but I don't know.

Speaker 4 (57:44):
You don't know. Yeah, man, if they are let on
me and they're living.

Speaker 5 (57:47):
Off the grid, I always want to put a camera
back there too, to see what's happening camera for I
hear that.

Speaker 4 (57:52):
I hear that.

Speaker 5 (57:53):
Look at the coyotes that come up too, man like
kind of close to the house.

Speaker 4 (57:56):
So oh yeah, dude.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
The other the other day, I uh, I get deer
in my neighborhood. So it's three thirty in the morning,
I'm hearing all this rustling of leaves, but it's super dark.
I can't see anything, so I just think it's deer
and dude, I'm pulling out of the driveway my headlights
hit the wooded area. Yeah, dude, it's a skunk. And

(58:19):
this thing is the size, dude of a bulldozers and
it's just it's waddling its way through the leaves.

Speaker 4 (58:25):
I'm like, oh, like, I miss this thing by I
don't know, five seconds. Yeah, but this is their time.

Speaker 1 (58:33):
See, we're not We're not supposed to be on the
road at three thirty four o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 4 (58:37):
Yeah, do what you gotta do. Deers.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
I've had deer run down my street like like hooves
on the on the asphalt.

Speaker 4 (58:46):
We have turkeys.

Speaker 5 (58:47):
Man, While turkeys are flying back, I still don't know
if I can shoot one and eat one. I did
realize they can fly a little bit because I opened
the door to let the dogs out.

Speaker 4 (58:55):
I'm like, geez, I hope those things they get over
if they fly to kind of like jump and that
they get some air. Yeah, so I'll chalk it up.

Speaker 5 (59:02):
I don't know wild turkeys, deer or coyotes rather than
a family living behind my home.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
My inelos get pheasants like these, like little like guinea hens. Yeah,
all things I think you can shoot and eat. Yeah,
I guess you could if you're really hungry.

Speaker 5 (59:15):
Not a human though. If there's humans behind my house,
I can't shoot them.

Speaker 4 (59:19):
Maybe you can.
