Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, it does, Like why up.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
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, compelling
and educated radio and stand above all the rest.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
And this show isn't it? Hey?

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Man?

Speaker 4 (00:53):
What's happening?

Speaker 1 (00:55):
You ever catch somebody in like a like a white line,
like a like a little fib and my kids all
the time, and I just laugh at it. So, you like,
I'm in charge of like my mom's medicine and stuff,
so I got to like to make sure I pick
it up, you know, make sure it gets renewed, and
you know, uh. And I go to the pharmacy yesterday

(01:16):
and uh and I said, hey, a couple of days ago,
I left off a prescription to get refilled.

Speaker 4 (01:22):
And the woman kind of.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Looks like at me and like okay, And she looks
on the computer and she goes, oh, well, one we're
still waiting to hear back from the doctor, and the
other they said it's not uh, it hasn't been enough time.
Come on, huh Right, So I said, okay, I said,
I said sure, I said, that's weird. It's been a
couple of days and and and these are medicines that
you know, saber life. Yeah, that's the place you don't

(01:45):
want lying to you.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
So but then it was the thing and something my
kid would do. Not ten minutes later, I'm driving home,
I get an alert on my phone. Oh, your your
prescriptions are ready. So you guys just forgot to put
them in. What you're telling exactly what happened. And by
the way, I know, the jobs stressful, and you got
a lot of people yelling and screaming at you, so
I could care less. It's just funny to me that

(02:08):
ten minutes later it was like, yeah, yeah, they're here,
they're ready to be picked up. You know what it is.
It's the way people treat people now. Could have been sweeter,
but but I'm like, I know you were gonna flip out.
You're gonna turn into a Karen and a woman honesty.
I forgot to put it in. You can tell the
look on her face when she pulled up the whatever
the thing on the computer, it could tell they just

(02:29):
forgot Yeah. It just the woman. It was an older woman.
I gave it to a couple of days ago, and
it said here, I need these, you know, uh, you
know re prescribed and uh and she just forgot. Yeah,
you get in your cars more of an inconvenience than saying, hey,
by the way, we forgot to put that in, but
hank tight. It'll be done at about ten minutes. And
I'd appreciate all that. Yeah, So so that made me laugh.

(02:50):
It was like it's like, okay, so you're you're telling
me that it's gonna take some time, but ten minutes
after I was in there, all all of a sudden, magically,
magically they appear. Yeah, like with my kid, when I said, hey, man,
did you take money out of my wallet? No, not
to take money out of your wallet. You know what happens,
The money magically appears. I'm like, oh, there's that hundred
dollars you took out of my wallet. Yeah. So my

(03:11):
little guy, now he's not smart and he's not any
and he definitely is not suave when when it comes
to getting away with stuff. So I tell him to
clean his room. He'll go up and just shut his door.
That's clean, and then like, I'm not going to.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
Open it up and check his room.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
I like that. They'll come in here. It's locked. There's
nothing to say here, Dad.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
No clean the room.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
No. Shutting the door is not cleaning the room. My
wife thinks, cleaned up the bedroom is putting all the
clothes in the closets. So my wife got on me.
She's like, you're getting really on him about his room.
And I said, yeah, because his room needs to be cleaned, right,
nothing wrong with that. And she goes, can't you this
is where he gets it from, can't you just shut
the door? I go, that's not an answer. No, No.
The worst thing I did is I built a nice

(03:57):
walking closet for my wife. Like I put all the
the shelving up and everything else for her clothes and stuff.
I'm like, okay, it's put new floors down. Looks beautiful. Yeah.
So I decided to take the door off all right,
so she could just walk in there and through the bathroom,
not open the door. Worst thing ever, man, because now
I can see all the nonsense I wish I just
had the door I could just show never mind, when
the door was on the hinges, I couldn't shut it
anyway because of the closing shoes. So you know what

(04:19):
I had to do that I lost law. I lost
both ways. I've had to do that in the bathroom
where there's so many piles of towels and clothes that
I've had to push the door open like it was
a dead body behind it. Someone told me get shut. Hey, everybody, Tuesday,
we'll get into that. We're gonna find it. Z XL

Speaker 4 (07:58):
Let's bugged me out last night. I know things are changing.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
I get it, like technology, I understand, but this bummed
me out last night playing craps at a casino. Why
were you at a casino on a Monday night? Exactly right.
So my buddy, my buddy's in town for work. Monkey
remember Monkey? I remember Monkey? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (08:18):
Monkey, We were in Nashville.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
That's it. So Monkey's in town for work. So him,
me and my brother we decided to meet in Philly
because he's staying there on the round. This was a
trip that you guys used to do almost every Sunday, right.
You would go to Delaware to gamble, wouldn't you before
sports betting was okay in ac and everywhere else? Yeah?
You had to go to Delaware Park, but you could
only do three game parlays. So it's like we'd be
at Delaware Park at eight thirty on a Sunday our

(08:41):
parlay tickets. Now we're on a Crabs table. Now we're
at a Crabs table. It's ten thirty. Yes, it's a problem.
It's all the problem when you're driving at seven thirty
in the morning to a casino to gamble. Did you
ever think, man, maybe this is an issue mat the
breakfast sandwich is the cigars. It was all we're having
drake at the table. Yeah, it's all bad, but that's

(09:02):
my thing. I like to play craps. So we end up.
He stayed there near Philly, so we go to Philly Live.
And I've seen these before, like with the slot machines,
and it sucks. Man, if you're a slot machine player,
the days are like the coins coming out. I still
thought that was cool. I also thought, too, man, when
you pull the handle was kind of cool. Now you
just you put your money in there and it's like
you hit a button. It's like like a zombie button.

(09:24):
But but it's it's.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
Something because it's just a receipt podcast.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
It's a voucher ticket man, the old days of having
a bucket and give it to the cash here. I
know it's in a given yeah that part right. Yeah.
So so last night we go there. There's one crabs
table and it's packed, and there's another craps table. All
we want to do is grab something to eat, which
we did and play craps. That was our thing. We
want to all have our our gambling money, which my
mic I had. Good food court at Philly, not bad.

(09:51):
It's not bad. I've been there before for the food court.
So we uh so we go. Now we can't get
on this craps table. All we want to do is
play craps, and we got time. It's a time, but
it got to be home at a certain time because
I've worked the next day. So there's this one crabs
table and it's electronic. Now, you bro, it's the dumbest
thing I've ever seen. And I pray this isn't where
we're going as a casino. You have perhaps the whole

(10:15):
thing is you got to throw dice, right, Yes, So
here's what it is. The whole table is electronic, but
it's a piece of plexiglass on top of the whole
thing is dumb. Now you don't you don't deal with
chips anymore. You put your money in the thing like
an arcade machine, you get your credits, and now you
hit the screen like where you want to put the
chips on the thing. I don't like this at all.
I like, dude, it was awful. Have you ever seen

(10:36):
the horse betting one where it's the plastic horses that
run around? I don't, I don't. I don't don't trust it, don't.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
I don't understand that either.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
I don't even underst Like it's so it's like horse racing,
but it's like predetermined.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
They're toy. It's like toy horses that run around and
you bet on it.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Yeah, you're just lucky enough to predetermine you think the
seven horses gonna win there. So there's no strategy at
all for it. No, it's it's it's just a reason
for people to gamble. But playing this game last night,
it took all the fun out of it. I was like,
I pray, like, why would you even have this table
like they now have blackjack, where it's like it's a
you know, it's a it's a it's a screen, yes,

(11:12):
and it's your your blackjack, your black jacket dealer isn't
even there. Yeah, you can play at home and it's
actually it's kind of cool. Man. When you walk through
the Golden nuggt you can see it behind the screen.
It's like some hot chick. So it's and it's it,
you know what. I trust it more because it is
actual live cards. You just kind of playing around and
it's regulated. Yeah, yeah, so that is good. Last night, man,

(11:32):
it was just no, that's weird. Yeah. Now all you
do you do roll the dice, but it's not even
like the so you roll the dice onto where plexiglass.
That's weird. It's like it's it's like this hard glass,
the whole thing. And we wanted to gamble so bad.
We end up playing now thank god they opened up
a table. Like after they finally opened up a table,

(11:53):
we get on there and I did all right. It
was good man, I was up. But man, just looking
at him like, please, please, don't let this be the
future of casinos. I love playing craps so bad. I
would never go back to this place if it was
all electronics. So the end of the day, where did
you leave with any money? Up seventy one dollars okay, yeah,
seventy one dollars all right, not terrible.

Speaker 4 (12:10):
So what did you put in?

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Well? I started with, well, my wife listens to the show,
so I went there with twenty dollars and I left
it ninety one. Okay, No, it sucks now because we
had a dog sitter over the weekend, so she found
my money that I keep for gambling. It's my money.
She knows what's in there now. So it was like
pressure because I could go out and just lose three
hundred dollars and not her. She wouldn't worry about it

(12:34):
because wouldn't know about it. But like, I had to
make sure I want or I had to figure something
out because she knows what I have in my little
gambling one.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
My wife pulled that move over the weekend.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
She wanted to go shopping for Christmas stuff, right, and
so I dropped her off with home goods and she's like,
you got any money for me? And I go what what?
I was like, I have my money, Yeah, that's your money.
And she's like she's like she's like yeah, And I
was like, can you just give me some cake? I
was like, what can you put my money? Yeah? Yeah,
like your credit card balance has way more than ours. Yeah. Yeah,

(13:04):
like and isn't like you know, like I don't know.
I was like, you should just use our card. She's like, no,
just give me whatever cash. Yet I ended up having
a call up cash door. So she's like Christmas decoration.
I hate that because, yeah, my wife asked, Hey, I
need twenty dollars or something, and I'm like, and my
wife knows I carry cash with me, so she's always
you have you know I have cash on me.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
That's the problem, you know, I do.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
I hate to give my wife cash that I have,
but I have no problem when I'm going to get
a haircut asking her for cash and she has in
a little envelope.

Speaker 5 (13:30):
Absolutely different. Look, we get back with you, Scotty Juice.
There's some rock news for it. Pete's townsend is calling
out Rick Rubin. Pete was being interviewed about the creative
process of making music, and he said, you see a
lot of stuff on YouTube and Instagram, people nagging you

(13:52):
about the way that you have to be creative. He said,
somebody needs to slap somebody like Rick Rubin who goes
on and says this is what you need to do
to be creative, he said, I've dabbled with all those methods.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
I've carried complete, big recording studios on the road with
me sometimes and then sometimes I've used little cassette machines.
I've recorded in all kinds of different ways. And if
I fancy going into a studio with a huge orchestra,
I've done that too. But what's most interesting is the paper,
the paper, the photograph, the writing. Townsend further insisted that
creativity is not just about rock stars, pop stars, singers, musicians,

(14:25):
artist or whatever. It's about everyone. Townsend certainly isn't the
first rock star to criticize Rick Rubin. He's a butler,
once called the producer's tactics ridiculous, while former Red Hot
Chili Pepper's guitarist Josh cliff Hopper said Rubin was way
more of a hindrance than a help in the studio.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
Yeah, Rick Rubin.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
So I don't know if you know a lot about
Rick Rubin, you should because he started Deaf Cham Yeah.
It was part of the old Beastie Boys, Right, didn't
you find the beast Beastie Boys? Right? So a little
white kid, right, big, big, big fat white kid, big
fat white kid, big fat white kid with a big beard.
So he has no musical skill. He just goes in
and he's an interesting character. Man. He just tells these

(15:07):
artists what he likes, so like they'll play and he goes,
I don't like that, so don't do that, or I
like this, go do that. And he's made a huge
career for himself. He's like one of the biggest producers
in music. He resurrected Johnny Cash's career.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
So he's got an ear for music, but he has
no musical skill whatsoever.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Right, he can't play an instrument, but he can he
can listen to something and go, that's gonna be a hit.
Some guys just have that. Yeah. Ac DC are rumored
this week to be announcing a North American tour, So
the Facebook page for a C d C, so they
I guess they're they're hinting that we could get I

(15:46):
think they're touring Europe, but now we could get a
a C d C North American tour being announced this week.
But if the singer lost his voice or his throat
ripped out or so couldn't hear, couldn't hear, and then
a doctor or made him a specialized hearing aid so
he can go back out on stage. That's why Axel
was playing with him for a while, Axel Rose. But

(16:08):
now he's back. He's got this hearing device in his ear,
so he's able to go out and perform. So yeah,
so ac DC's still doing it and we could see
them in North America sometime this week at the announcement. Now,
me and you, So I asked my wife for her

(16:28):
credit card because I put the tickets on her credit card.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
ZXL Morning Show A bunch of point seven is exls
out Jersey's rock station. So over the weekend, my wife
and I got into an argument on Saturday night and
it all stems from stupid Christmas decorations. So she wanted
to start decorating for Christmas. That wasn't even the fight,
and I was like no. I was like, it's too early,

(18:49):
Like I still have it's too early, it's not anymore right,
it's too early, So we're not decorating.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
We went out and shopped for you.

Speaker 1 (18:56):
We got some new decorations and stuff, and she's like,
can I at least do the mantle? I said, fine,
if you want to do the mantle, that's fine. Right. Still,
I still had like bins of Halloween stuff that have
to go down the basement, and I'm like, I'm like,
it's not we're not ready yet.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
So I was like, fine, you want to do the mantle,
that's fine.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
So she's you know, we're having a good time Saturday
night and she's cooking food, she's, you know, doing the mantle,
and then it gets to be like late night and
she's like, uh oh. She goes, I lost the remote
to the fireplace, which sits on our mantle. Yeah, And
I said okay. And I didn't even get mad. I said, okay,

(19:34):
I said, what you know? But she didn't like my tone,
so she lost it that day. She lost it because
she's what she wanted to start decorating for Christmas, so
she started with the mantle. So I said, okay, I said,
where could it be? She goes, I think I may
have taken it up to our bedroom. I go, why
in the world would you take the fireplace remote that's
downstairs in our family room, two upstairs in our bed.

(19:56):
My kids do this with the remote controls from their rooms,
and now we've already lost a fam remote. So now
my fan in my bedroom only goes one speed because
we lost the remote. Right, So I'm like, okay, and
I'm not even mad. I'm not getting mad at her, like, okay,
where is it? But she doesn't like the tone I'm using,
So now she's screaming at me because she lost the remote.

(20:17):
Now does that make sense to you, Jojo, Well, she
knows that she was in the wrong. I think that's
what it was. It stems from the fact that and here,
but here's she's like, I can hear you huffing and puffing, right,
and I'm not huffing a puffing, And I'm like, I
just want to find the remote because that without that remote,
we can't turn our fireplace. Yes See, I got frustrated yesterday,
and I could have went back and said, well, this

(20:38):
is why what was it? It would have been silly
to throw it back in her face because you could
easily come back and say, well, this is why I
didn't want to start the manual. But you would be
wrong in saying that because it has nothing to do
with the fact she lost the remote control. And if
she lost it, she doesn't want to be reminded by it.
Or you're huffing and puffing. But I wasn't huffing and puffin.
You know what's huffing and puffin about? It's ten o'clock
and I just want to sit on the couch and

(20:58):
watch you know, TV or college football or something. Right,
And now I'm I'm searching for this stupid remote to
the the fireplace and then you huffing puff because she
says you're huffing and puff and now you're because she says,
I huff and puff, you're right, And I'm like, I'm like,
and she gets mad because when I start to rub
my forehead she knows that I'm I'm really pissed off.

Speaker 4 (21:20):
Right, and when.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
You're married, like you know that there's these little like
peccadillos that people have, right and uh, and so I'm
just like, I'm like, I don't, like, let's just find
the remote. Like this is why, like I didn't want
to jump into all this, like we kind of jumped in,
but it has nothing to do with you. You could
have jumped into this well because cleared the mantle off

(21:41):
with the remote on it to put up the Christmas decoration.
But that's she's gonna come back and say, well, don't
say we shouldn't have started Christmas decorations. I should have
been more careful with the remote controls. What should have happened?
So uh, she finally goes up to our bedroom. It's
in her closet. Well, how does the remote to our
fireplace in our family room end up in our clockt

(22:01):
so this I talked about it before I lost I
had two sets of keys from my truck right now.
One was missing and I thought I had lost the
other one. I ended up finding it. But for a
year I've had one key from my truck, and I
tell my what, you're playing with fire there. I know
it because if you lock it in in the car,
you're screwed. I know exactly what I do when I
get home my wallet keys, they all go in the

(22:22):
same drawer, So I know I didn't use it. I
didn't lose it. But I can't tell my wife that.
She doesn't want to hear. She thinks it's on me. Well,
where's your second key? I'm like, okay, she found it
the other day. She had to put a winter coat
on to go outside and walk the pockets in the pocket.
It was in the pocket. I say, right, you're guilty,
one hundred percent. It's one hundred percent your fault. I
knew that. The other day I was looking for the

(22:42):
spare set of the keys for my car and they're
not I have them in a basket on top of
our fridge. All the spare sets of keys, right and
it's not there, And I go to my wife. I go,
where's the spare set of keys to my car? She goes, oh,
it's in my purse. And I go, Okay, what if
I needed it and you weren't here. Terrible place for it,
terrible place to have the spare set of keys. Now
you're coming up on the season where you're gonna want

(23:04):
that fireplace slit. So yeah, so she found it in
her closet. Why it was there, I could not tell
you why. But it caused a huge argument, by the way,
which we're still in. Oh still it's still not over. Well,
she was wrong, she was wrong. There's a bit of
gloating for me. I'm you know what I'm taking. I'm

(23:25):
taking the victory parade, that's what. She doesn't like that either.

Speaker 4 (23:28):
So I'm letting it.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
I'm letting it simmer for a while, you know, let
it sit there and go, you know what, Like, Yeah,
you're calling me crazy, but I wasn't.

Speaker 4 (23:38):
I wasn't. I was helping you look for the remote
that you lost.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
These bitches loved the mantle though. Man, it's her favorite thing,
my wife, that's her Like my wife was doing the
Christmas trees yesterday. She does a real nice dude. I
dropped her off at Home Goods right and I and
she's like, you gonna come in? I was like, no,
it's a good shopping. Our favorite one of our favorite
bars is like maybe three stores away. And I went
over to our favorite bar really sat there and I said,

(24:03):
I said, you take your time at home Goods. God,
I'm gonna sit here. And I talked to my buddy
the bartender who just moved from Sweden to to to Jersey.
He's gonna move back to Sweden soon, big shout out
to the brick house in May's landing, And a couple
hours later she comes strolling in. I was like, all right,
that was good. I I don't need to be at

(24:25):
home Goods because you know what would happened. I would
be following her around, miserable. I like home Goods. There's
a lot of good stuff. I'd be following her around,
miserable and and being like is it time to go?
Like a little kid, is it time to go? Is
it time to go? It's time to go in hobby lobby.
I like hobby lobby too. I'm a big fan. Stop
it looks I have to slap things out of her
hand because she wants to buy them, Like, Nope, that's
not our Christmas thing. We don't do that. Like I

(24:47):
let her one time a hobby lobby by herself. A
week ago. She goes back with wooden soldiers to hang
up on the wall made of wood.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
I gotta paint.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Yeah, I didn't. That sucks.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
I wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
I would have totally got that out of that work.
You have to do.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
Yes, uh we uh we get back.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
We're going do some headlines right now. I got a
parent tickets for Red one over at the Square Theaters.

Speaker 4 (25:02):
It's the Rock. It's a Christmas movie.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
You want it? Six zero nine six seven seven one
hundred and seven six zero nine six seven seven one
hundred and seven. We get back to headlines, well unto
point seven's the XL's at Jersey's rock Station's the XL
Morning Show. I got a I had a slew of
talkbacks here I was gonna get into but last night
about five or six drunk ones came in from your wife. Yeah, okay,

(25:26):
So she goes to the top of the list when
it comes to talkbacks. A couple of things here. If
you want to be part of the talkback club. You
go to the iHeartRadio app, right, uh, and then you
go to w ZXL. You'll see a red microphone button.
You can send us a message. We'll play it now. Unfortunately,
we gave that those directions to our wives, and my

(25:48):
wife went out. She was drinking with her her cousin
last night. So was this out or was this at
the house? This was at her parents house. They were
at my in laws. They were there so lebrating Veterans Day.
That's how they celebrate and thank our veterans by what
they call popping bottles. Don't get me wrong, I love
the drunk talkbacks. This is what the features for. See,

(26:10):
we don't have to deal with this nonsense in a
phone call. It's a talkback. We play it, we have
some fun with it. We move on. So this is
my wife and her cousin and they're drunk. Okay, First
of all, here they are trying to figure out the
talk back feature.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
Well, it's tough when you're drunk.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
I did.

Speaker 7 (26:28):
But look now it's already thirty seconds.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
Oh everystart restart Okay, So that's them trying to figure
out out. Yeah, it sounds like we got it under control.
Now we understand the feature. You hit it and it
goes red, and you record and then you stop it.
You ask them how to open up a bottle of champagne,
No problem, but to work be talkback. It's a it's
a bit of an issue, all right. I can't even
label these solicious. Run through them. You can explain what

(26:50):
they mean.

Speaker 4 (26:51):
It's gonna be tough. I don't know even if I
can explain it.

Speaker 7 (26:57):
Later on to hear all right, I know I voted
Crrent opposite party, but we're not even going to talk
about it.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
Who voted for what?

Speaker 7 (27:08):
No one will ever now?

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Talk back? Was it having a lot of fun there?
So it sounds like she voted for somebody other than
you voted for. She got mad at me once years
ago because I had a Donald Trump bobblehead. Now this is,
I guess twenty sixteen, so he was ruled maybe twenty fifteen.
He's running for president. Now. I had a Donald Trump
bobblehead because I got it as a gift for hosting

(27:36):
a bikini pageant at the Trump Marina Great get Man.
And she was like, she went on and on because
she was a bleeding heart liberal, even though she's got
a bit older and a little more mature now, so
she's not bleeding heart as much anymore, because now things
affect her life like prices, yeah, and real life. It's
not cool to be twenty five and just free willing
everything and just being like, oh the the you know,

(27:58):
the world is, you know, the world should all be
love and unicorns and polka dots. Sounds like she voted
for Kamala, which is her right now. I don't honestly,
well did you okay, okay, I'll be honest. I think
she is a secret Trump support. There's a lot of
the map there. It's called the silent majority. She doesn't
want to talk about it, right, but I think she's

(28:19):
a secret Trump supportern.

Speaker 7 (28:21):
I have your wife, I have your son, and I
have your grain son.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
Don't all right?

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Oh, I gotta say.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
That what's happening? I don't know. There's a kid. There's
music at the.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
End my own So she has my wife, which she does.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
She has my oldest my oldest daughter's little guy, which
apparently that sounds like she does, and she does have
my son. So she has kidnapped my family. And now
they're just sending I guess ransom talk back. That's what
it sounded like that What it is? What do you
owe them? Yeah? So I I uh yeah, champagne. Man,

(29:07):
they can really get banged up on that.

Speaker 7 (29:08):
Yeah, we forgot to leave you a voicemail being so
I got a little uh excited, if you will, I
can go a little bit, and left you a little
something in the former.

Speaker 4 (29:28):
This was a Monday night. What what are they? What's
going on?

Speaker 1 (29:31):
I don't know, but this was last night.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
I like this.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
So that's my wife's cousin and my wife and her
drinking champagne. And I feel bad for my father in
law because he's the one that's got to deal with them.
But the Delco voice comes out. She tries to hide it,
She tries to be uppity and hide it. And she
lived in California for years, but when when the drinks
start flowing, that Delco voice, the you know, I'm gonna

(29:54):
go have a hoogie with Joe Flaco Delco slur right
like that? Just do you just like you could? Just
I mean, you can name the county she lives in,
right like That's that. That's how bad the accident is.

(30:20):
What are we what are we doing? At this point.
That's the last one, and I mean that one. Is
there a time stamp on that? What time did that
come in? I'd like to know what time did they
get that banged up? The they it sounds equally hammered,
so it's it was. I guess it was all one shot.
It sounds like they warmed up, like hey, here's the
talk back blah blah blah blah, some laughing and giggling. Dude,

(30:42):
I'm not kidding. It's full blown annihilated. Her and her cousin,
the two peas in a pod. They're dangerous when they're together.
They go and they get They actually have holders for it.
It's a six pack of champagne. It's a six pack
of full bottles of champagne. It's usually just consumed with
one bottle of night is Nope, no, no, no, no, no, no,
they need three.

Speaker 4 (31:00):
Yeah, what's today?

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Feel like he's got work? No? I know that my
wife has work, my little guy has school. Uh. So

hit the red microphone button and you can send us
a drunk message.

never cried, right, what are you and what are you
crying about? Jim?

Speaker 4 (32:08):
This guy has nothing to worry.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Why because all your celebrity fans got hosed right, Like, look,
they all made money, right like the that's it. We
found out all your celebrity friends are whores and they
took a bunch of millions of dollars from the Kamala campaign,
not because they liked her, because they were getting paid
a ton of money to go out there and support her.
If I'm eminem Man, I got he got one point six,

the trailer. Trailer looks really good. It's called Complete Unknown.
He learned thirty Bob Dylan songs to be in the movie.
Uh so, Uh, it looks at least the trailer looks
really good and it's not. It's weird because they filmed
it in Cape May, but it's not Cape May. I
believe it's a it's a Newport, California that's supposed to be.

(33:14):
But it was cheaper to the film in here in
Shape and it is out in California. Should have did
it and a uh now they shouldn't have the Rock.

He had that thing about Hawaii where they said a
lot of funds. You remember this whole town in Hawaii

funds of a charity didn't go to where they needed
to go to.

Speaker 4 (33:45):
He's got a football league.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
It's kind of failing and uh, and he's had a
couple of movies that have tang. But I guess some
people came out when he was on the set of
this new movie, Red One, which is a Christmas movie
that he's doing. It's like an action Christmas movie.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
They said that.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
He's kind of a pain in the ants and he
also peas on set like he PE's in models. Oh yeah,
he admitted that it's true, said the same time he
does pe in bottles when he's on set. He's one
of those guys that can't. Yeah, so uh they you know.
But then people did come and defend him and say, like, look,

(34:20):
even though you know that's he's trying to save time.
He is a great guy.

Speaker 4 (34:23):
He's very generous.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
He's very generous to the to the people that are
working on the on the on the set on the movie.
So so yeah, I mean he seems yeah, dude, I
mean he seems he's a dumb wrestle. He's like, at
the end of the day, he's a dumb wrestler. I remember
they were talking about him being president. I don't know, Well,
I mean, I okay, I mean, look, twenty years ago,

(34:45):

her Zach Bryan tattoo as a reminder of the relationship
she was in with him. So, lud orbat So was

had Apple TV. Yeah, dude, those Apple TV remotes were
the size of a quarter. Yeah, and you would they

(39:06):

you good old days there was a big long wire
that came from your TV into a little brown box
and if you wanted channel six, you put you hit
channel six.

Speaker 4 (39:27):
The worst thing.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
To happen when we were growing up with your remote
where the battery door would fall off and you'd have
to like tape it or rubber bandit. Yeah, that was
the worst thing that could happen is ours got chewed
up in my living room. I have a remote control
that cuts into my finger because it's chewed up plast.

Speaker 4 (39:46):
Look, yeah, we get back.

Speaker 1 (39:47):

point seven ZXL, South Jersey's rock station and the ZXL
Morning Show for the second time. Okay, so I think
we have to have an intervention, and that's for you.
I think we need to focus. No, I'm not I'm

(40:08):
not opening those text messages. You know. I try to
leave the chat between you and heavy Handed Dennis yesterday.
I'm not talking about the videos of fat people that
I send you, which are, by the way, you should watch. Okay,
I'm not gonna watch because these fat people, they're on
the Good Food Man fat. They get fat for a reason, yeah,
because it's so good. And I watch these people like
five hundred pounds and they do these food reviews. Usually

(40:28):
it's either in their kitchen or their car. No, you
need the focus because I feel like you're not focused
on the on the on the prize yesterday, won't get
into a door in the show.

Speaker 4 (40:43):
You weren't very focused. Yeah, and you missed some stuff.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Uh huh, Okay, I missed one, but I know it's
a big one. But one. But later I tell you that, man.
But then later you send me a text with you
you're trying to get Yellowstone on one of the streaming
platforms for free. So you were asking for my password,
which is fine, all right, and I gave it to you,

(41:08):
and then a day later you send me the thing
and go, I don't have the password. And then you
send me some password that didn't even exist. Yeah, I
don't know what that came from. And and I go, go, okay,
it's time the focus now because I sent you the
the the username and password that could work. But then
you also have a thing where you delete stuff. You
sent me the one three that's Netflix. Oh god see,

(41:34):
But the problem is you delete before you actually utilize it. Delete.
I do delete, yes, because I can't have all these
things open or else. I get confused, I get overwhelmed. Well,
how over? What did my wife use the other over
the weekend? And it's such a millennial gen z term.
Oh she said she was over stimulated, And I go,

(41:55):
what does that even mean? Isn't that just life? So
I'm i a f a DT for a security system.
I had to call yesterday and switch up the credit card, right,
I want to put it on a different credit card.
We're closing this credit card out whatever. So we go
through it and she's like, well, what's your what's your password?
I'm like, oh no, no, what's your what's your past
the code? But it's not the number code. I said,

(42:17):
do you mean the code that I use like every day.
When I said it and on set, it's like, no,
what's the secret the secret code? Your secret code, the
secret secret code. I'm like, well, what is that? She's like, well,
if we call you and we have to verify at
you to turn your alarm off to make sure it's
not some some criminal or whatever, It's like, what what
What's the secret word? It's the word you give to

(42:39):
your kids when when strangers pick them up. Yes that
if you have this, If you know the secret word,
you're cool, which ours is dumb, Like I don't even okay,
I don't remember the word I'm supposed to give somebody
if they're going to pick up my kids. Because it
was like I think I had the word tomato winners.
It was so stupid. Whatever it is, but again it's
that's what happens to me, Like kids pick it. So
I'm like, I have no idea what that word is.

(43:00):
I end up ramdall off a couple of them, and
I finally figured it out. Man, dude, I had to
cancel health insurance to get on another health insurance plan,
and uh, They're like, all you got to answer these
three security questions that I guess I did when I
set it up, and I go, I don't know the
answers to the I don't know what I put for
these answers. I like, without answering these questions, you can't cancel.

(43:21):
And I'm like, oh, like like, I don't know the
answers to these Where did you meet your wife? I'm
like in a bar? Yeah? Is that it? The answer?
Is it the state? Yeah, it's all these safety and
I guess it's good to have that stuff, but I'm like,
I don't remember any of this stuff. It's just too much. Man,
I don't know. Just trust it. Whatever pass word I
use is gonna be. Then the best is you needed

(43:42):
my it's for Peacock. You wanted my signing. But then
I think the show you were looking for is not
even on Peacock. It's not even I don't even know. Yeah,
it's on Paramount. Yeah. I'm like, well, I mean, enjoy Peacock,
but I don't think it's going to help you. And
I feel I don't know how many texts you get
where it saying, hey, somebody's trying to get into your
your account prove or not approved. I've given my Netflix

(44:02):
out to so many people. Twice three times a day.
I'll get hey, it's somebody news signed in your Netflix account. Well,
when I end up getting all brand new TVs, I
think I put yours on there. So I uploaded you've
made your own twelve like for your own avatar and
name on my Netflix acount. And I finally, I finally
buckled down. I got my own Netflix. But I think
you're still I think you're still on a TV or

(44:23):
two of mine. Yeah, yeah, yeah, But I was trying
to get that password yesterday. I'm like, I, I know
it's it's sometimes his name.

Speaker 4 (44:31):
Here's a problem.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
The day before I send it to you, I deleted it.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
But you delete it.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
I get my information because of course, I'm like, I'll
remember this, and then I delete it. I deleted. My
wife hates it too because I deleted it.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
Know what.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
I'll delete things and then a text will come like
a response from somebody it's i't what you're talking about? Yeah,
like what what does that mean? I was like, I
forget even the conversation. I'm getting so old now. I
screenshot everything. Yeah, yep, I screenshot everything. And that started
a couple of years yars ago with when like a
parking in a parking garage. I'll take a screenshot of

(45:05):
the number that's on the pillar, of course, so I
can remember where I park.

Speaker 4 (45:09):
Because I can't. I'm never gonna remember that.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
I was a crapshoot. I was at Philly Live. There's
luckily there was only three fours. I'm like, what four
do we park on site? I lost the other day
in an acme parking lot. I couldn't find my clock, Like, wait,
where did I park around? You're an amusement park or
you're like parking at a like a like a stadium
or something like that. It's like section seven B is

(45:31):
where my car is. Luckily, I I'm Clark Griswold in
that way where I park the farthest away, so I'm
the first one out. So look we get back, we'll
do a thing called you think you have a bad
You think you've got it bad. I don't think we

(45:53):
have a bed. Most people enjoy a nice beverage from
time to time, right, like you know, maybe an adult beverage.
But there is something you should consider about kicking alcohol
for good. Why would you do that?

Speaker 4 (46:08):
It's called the.

Speaker 1 (46:09):
Complete Guide the Memory The Science of strengthening your mind.
A doctor identifies alcohol as a very very weak neurotoxin
that's not good for nerve cells. From the age of
sixty five, the doctor says, bodies have less neurons than before.
That's time, he says, when people should significantly decrease their
alcohol consumption, with the end goal of completely eliminating it
by the time they hit seventy. So you tell me,

(46:31):
I got twenty five good years left in me. These
Aalian guys many drink wine every night. One lived to
be like eighty five. My buddy's grandpapa. I can't remember
their names, but yeah, slowly we are going through fall,
and now winter has temperatures get cooler. We eventually are
segging into the darkness of winter. As days get cooler,
the furnace in your house or apartment works harder, and

(46:52):
family members eventually start squabbling over what's perfect indoor temperature.
I agree with this. According to the World Health Organism,
the ideal indoor temperature sixty four degrees. That's where I am.
That's where I keep my house exactly where I ah,
That's where I keep my house at. I also have
a thing, man where I have to be on even number.
So sixty six is too hot, sixty four is perfect.

(47:13):
Sixty four is where we live. Most Americans keep their
house in sixty eight degrees. That's too hot. You ever
going to someone's house. It's like myru like seventy four.
Much rather be cold, much rather be cold than hot. Yeah,
I don't like this sweat man, Dude, I don't get
people who turn up the heat and.

Speaker 4 (47:32):
Like sleeping in heat.

Speaker 3 (47:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (47:34):
No, I'd rather be under the covers man, where it's chili. Uh.

Speaker 4 (47:38):
Doom spending.

Speaker 1 (47:40):
A new survey from Credit Karma found that Americans, the
young in particular, have turned to spending the cope with
the stresses of the modern world. The survey of just
over a thousand adults found the twenty seven percent cope
with stress through doom spending, but the percentage leaves the
thirty seven percent for the gen Z crowd and thirty
nine percent for millennials. Seven out of time, gen Z
say they're chronically online buying stuff. Receiving bad news makes

(48:05):
them want to go shop. I'm with them, I agree.
I buy my stuff used Facebook Marketplace. Yeah that's it.
What's w I hear everything and I'll just jump on
for no reason at all, almost like I'm just strolling
through a farmer's market, like, oh look, oh, a bubble
hockey table. I've been looking for one of these. You
know what's crazy is my wife wanted to to redo
like one of the rooms in our house, and she's like, I.

Speaker 4 (48:27):
Want to put a TV there.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
I didn't even go to like a real store. I
want the Facebook market show. So I was like, they
was selling a TV. Yep, right, Like that's the first
place I go to. Now what did I need? Oh?
For Halloween? I had I dressed up as Sonny Bono
when he skied into a tree. I needed to find
a ski ski goggles right where you go for face? Like,
I didn't even think about going to a sporting goods store.
It was want the Facebook Marketplace. I met a guy
in a Target parking lot. It was creepy. Sold me

(48:50):
were rock stations the XL Should I know what? This
doesn't sound like a big deal. It's kind of like
a first world problem. We complained about things in this
country we shouldn't. Yep, but this is kind of a
big deal to me, And I dreaded every year. I
dread pulling that bag up with the Christmas tree inside,
hooking the tree up and the pre lit tree. Yep,

(49:12):
lights aren't working. So oh my god, the right before Christmas,
Like I'm talking like the day before Christmas last year.

Speaker 3 (49:21):
The next to the top section of our tree went
out and it would come on every now and then
if I shook it right.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
So now my wife and I had to have the conversation,
do we get a new tree or do we ghetto
it up and put the lights around the dead section? Right,
it's never gonna look right. It's never gonna look it's
not gonna match up. But we decided this year will
be our last year with this tree. We're gonna we're
gonna rig it up and then next year get a

(49:55):
new tree. Only three years into this tree, yeah, I'm
about three four years in two. I got it the
day after Christmas. It was on the shelf at hobby lobby.
It was eighty percent off. It's like, well, it worked fine,
last year, worked fine for that dude. When it when
those lights go out and it's that one section and
you can't fix it, like there's not because it's pre

(50:15):
it's pre lit, and I don't know, it's kind to
be impossible. To they must make Christmas lights where you
can't fix the string, because I did. I went narrow,
tried changing out the little fuses. I went through every branch.
I tightened everyone up. It's I know you can't. It's
kind of be a better way than when one bolt
goes out, they all die out, Like, we can't figure
this out. So I got the bottom part had a

(50:35):
head of like a string out right, So okay, I
can turn it around, I can hide it. My wife
gets to the bed last night, she's like the tree
I was fluffing it. There's a section up top where
it's missing. It's dark. I'm like, oh my god, aggravation
I don't need because you're never You're always I'm always
gonna look at it. It's always gonna bother me, and
I'm never gonna be able to fix it. Yep. Yeah,

(50:56):
well good luck with that. I'm I'm dealing with the
same issue, shaking the tree and everything else. That's what
I did, That's what I had to do last year.
Like you get lucky, you feel like you get lucky
when it comes on, dude, I'm dealing with that right now.
There's a what my garage light? Like you know the
lights that are like on the side of your garage,
right the driveway lights. There's a bulb that decides to
go out every now and then, but then it just

(51:16):
comes back on and it's all it's fine now.

Speaker 4 (51:18):
And I'm like, I don't understand it.

Speaker 1 (51:20):
I don't know how this happens, but I'm not going
to change I'm so stubborn. I'm not going to change
it out if it keeps coming back on in my closet,
the room I get dressed in my closet room, I'd like,
I tap the ball that comes on, and then every
time I go to hit the switch, I put the
cover back on. I hit the switch and it doesn't
come back on. Dude, I just I put a dishwasher in,
maybe like a year or two ago, and I didn't
have a kickplate for it.

Speaker 4 (51:41):
I'm not even kidding. A couple of weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (51:44):
Just got the kickplate for it, because you know how
annoying it was. The look at that dishwasher for a
for a year and a half with no kickplay. But
it's never if a dishwasher didn't work, you'd fix that problem.
But it's a kick it's a kickplate. You'll get around
to the.

Speaker 4 (51:58):
Order of the kickplate.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
He's for somebody, just kick for some for something that's
made to kick eighty seven dollars. I had to order
from a specialty store. I'm like, get get out of here.
