Speaker 1 (00:00):
What is the cheap version of the thing that you
prefer to the expensive version of the thing. For example,
you were referring to seven to eleven pizza. Now, like,
I have the same feeling about Domino's pizza. And I'm
not even I'm not even singling out Dominoes. I mean
call it, like, what would you call that? Like a

(00:22):
fast version?

Speaker 2 (00:24):
Yeah, pizza.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Sure, I have no issue with fast food pizza. I
have no issue with fast food. But I'm also not
over here arguing that it is gourmet. It's fast food.
It is what it is. I can still like that
and also have some culture in my opinion. So, for example,
I like Domino's pizza. Every now and again I order it.

(00:46):
We live in a pizza town. There's way better pizza
all over the place. Gourmet pizza, deep dish pizza, New
York pizza, flat ass pizza. They got the big, long
time whatever you want, they got all that. I gotta
spend fifty bucks in a pizza if I want to,
but sometimes I don't want to. It's too fancy. And
that's how you felt about the seven eleven pizza.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yeah, if you know me, you know my medicine is
a frozen coke from seven eleven, Like for me, that's
the McDonald's ice cream machine. Like if the coke light
is blinking, it's I get very irate and have to
go to another seven eleven. So I was going and
I was like, you know what, their pizza sometimes just
like looks good, you know, to me, just and I'm
not mad at a seven eleven pizza. So I was

(01:30):
going to get my medicine, my coke, my frozen coke.
And I got myself four slices.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
Four of the seven eleven pizza and I ate them all.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
And you know what, I'm not mad at them. I
am not mad at a seven eleven pizza.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
You know, I love my Jets, you know I love
my Detroit Sele pizza. But I was not mad at
my little Uh it was like four dollars a slice
or three dollars a slice seven eleven pizza.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Uh huh yeah, oh yeah, No, you don't have any tastes,
you don't know, but this place has much better pizza. No no, no,
that's not what she's saying. What she is in the moment,
that's what she wanted, that's what she got. My nana.
I don't know why my nana used to buy She
used to buy grocery store cola, like grocery store brand. Yeah,
Nana had enough money to go buy the name brand.
But it got to the point where I preferred. I

(02:14):
preferred the grocery store cola flavor to whatever, you know,
expensive soda if you want to call it that. And
that was the running thing is that, Nana, do you
have them? Do you have the cola because I don't
want that. Well, I have Coca com No, I want them,
you know whatever America's best brand or you know whatever,
like the off brand. I preferred it.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
Dude, that bars will always be you know, I'll order
my little Jack Daniels, and I love my Jack Daniels.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
He's never done me dirty, never done me wrong.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
And dudes will be like, you know, you could try
like the wood food or the dish or that. And
I love a nice bougie whiskey, but sometimes I just
want my Jack.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Okay, So Kirkland tequila somebody so oh yeah, from Costco,
like the Kirkland brand.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
Whatever, Kirkland everything is better, oh yeah than name brand.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Even Cosco clothes. As I would say, I like clothes.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Well they do say some of the I've seen a
lot of different reviews on TikTok about that manufactured by
the A lot of people will take it's like leftover
from brands that we know and we would pay a
lot more from. Hey, Nick, you prefer the cheapers, you
know what? Good morning?

Speaker 2 (03:15):
So I prefer the cheap version of Kirkland or Costco
toiletry so like paper towels, toilet paper as opposed to
like Sharman and Bounty.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Really is it? It's as good better.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
Quality wise, I think it's about as good, if not better.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
And it's like seven dollars cheaper.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Yeah, there you go. It's cheaper. So yeah, little Costco
is the way to go. Man, a little leftover dodo
on there, big dealings cheaper, it's though, Nick, it's cheaper,
yeah right away, it's sper thank you, Nick. Yeah, that's

(03:57):
one thing I don't well, I don't really skim. There's
not a whole lot that I'm going I need. I
must have the cheap version of it. But one thing
I'm not buying the cheap version of is toilet paper.
I'll spend money on toilet paper, paper towels. That's a
little very sensitive, right all over the place.

Speaker 6 (04:14):
Excuse me, one fly, I will argue one fly. Toilet
paper gets the job done. Okay, it doesn't leave any residue.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
That's why I like it. Thornton gas Station hot dogs
on point GT Cola from Aldie. Come on now, the
fact you can my whole pizza from seven to eleven.
They'll make it for you. Oh really, A lot of
people saying Aldie, just because you have a favorite food
doesn't mean you don't eat other food, right right? Yeah,
I worked for Costco. That Costco tequila is prime, Yes, sir,

(04:43):
Speedway Pizza. Yes, that's my girl. Seven to eleven Big
Bite hot dogs, They're fantastic, okay. Kirkland vodka, yep. Yeah.

be the true connoisseur of the less expensive item.

Speaker 3 (04:56):

Speaker 7 (04:57):
I grew up with the cereals on the bottom, you know,
in the bags, and they're all the same whatever, or
the ones from all the It's not frosted flakes, but
it's frosted quake.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
It's almost the same name.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
The tiger looks the same.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
I'm like, it's just it's I don't I don't see
a difference.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
To name Steve the Tiger. That's what my mom should
have been. By no, because like when I was in
I don't know, middle high school, I could eat a
whole box. I mean I could still eat a whole
box of cereal right now.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
But that bag bag was twice the size of the
bag that's in the cereal box too.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
Yoh yeah yeah a Thomas. So what Thomas? How you doing? Man?

tacos that they have at seventy.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
Eleven, They're like, no, they're not taketos. They're little tacos
like old tacos. They're like little jack in a box taco.

my dad and I'm like, there's like wood in the
background and like drilling and su and I'm like, I'll

a YouTube show whatever about your big bag behavior.

Speaker 6 (07:10):
Absolutely, but it's not even just. I mean, I'm I
grew up in an off brand house, so I prefer
my taste buds. Love an off brand moment. I don't
even want the real thing. Like I go to al
d and buy everything from there and it just tastes
like normal. I was raised on like Mountain Slow oh yeah, thunder,

(07:30):
So I'm not picking at all. I love an off
brand moment, y'all know. I use every the vapor rod
her next Vapo Ruby Vapo.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
So yeah, I'm with all of this. See I swear
sometimes and that's the thing. You know, it's like, oh,
Taco bell, that's not Mexican food. I know, right, I know, great,
but it's good, it's delicious. I don't know what it is. Yeah,
I have no idea what it actually is. But it
doesn't matter. I'm not trying to tell you that it's
authentic now, not for one second fire any day anytime.

(08:02):
I mean, we could go buy, you know, fancy tacos anywhere,
like real fancy ones. Go sit down a real fancy
they got like fruit on them, or you know, I
don't know, vegetables all cut up fresh nights whatever that
will cost you, you know, twenty dollars for twenty dollars
a time they have the main That's what I'm saying.
I don't even like those bougie tacos. I hate bougie food.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Oh damn.

Speaker 7 (08:20):
Like We'll take like normal food over any like paying
all this money for like pineapple on my tacos, Like
I don't need that.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
That's probably why your peace coming at it and talk
about it. Linda says, a lot of that, like jewel
chips and stuff or just rebranded name brand ships. I
believe that. Yeah. Yeah, see Linda knows what's going on
Fred show.

Speaker 5 (08:47):
Yeah, they talk better than they tell me about it.

Speaker 1 (08:51):

Yeah your booty, Yeah, hey, I'll take anything at this point.
I need I need one real bad.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Yeah. I read a comment from somebody online that you
have the bottom half of seventy year old.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
That's even my front half too. I don't know how
that it was my front half.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
I mean that was that was a creative disc I
wish the people that dis me were as creative. But yeah, anyway,
I'll take it away dear blog.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
So if you've been listening for a while, you know
I'm an older sister and there's kind of a significant
age difference. There's thirty teen years between us, and there's
a lot of pros and cons about that relationship. You know,
I kind of had a hand in raising her, which
is really cool, and we have a very special bond.
But a lot of the cons are that, like I
know more than my parents know, and I need to

(10:17):
like take care of those things and hold those secrets.
So you know, I'm her friend on Snapchat, so I
see what she's doing. You know, sure, I'm the fixer.
I'm very tired after having this role for so long.
But I got a text from my little sister the
other day and the second I got it, I.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Knew what was up. So she texted me, I have
an insane favor to ask. Oh boy, the second I
read it.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
I knew she wants money and it's for something that
she cannot ask my parents for it.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
Okay, okay, And I said.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
What's up?

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Today's a little crazy, like girl, I don't have time
for this. She basically got a very expensive parking ticket okay,
and having her car up there was a whole thing,
and they didn't want her to have it. By the way,
I didn't have a car. I wasn't allowed to have
my car up there. That's also the blessing of being
the second child. So she very much could not ask them.

(11:11):
And she said, Okay, so I got a parking ticket.
I have legit no money, so could you possibly send
me the money? I'll pay you back. Also, I can discreetly,
discreetly ask.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
For more money. If not, I get it.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
I just didn't want to use mom's card, So now
I gotta pay for this. She is certainly not going
to pay me back. We can't tell our parents, and uh.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Because you know she would get it. Yeah, the money,
I said, I venmote her the money right away.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
You don't what to do in this situation? What do
you do?

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Okay? Then she got to learn you should have called
just ignore it, don't worry, don't forget about parking a
different area.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
You know you guys, I am a sucker.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
And also I'm like, why the hell do you have
zero money? Like she works all summer and then my
damn parents also pay for her stuff. But of course no,
I have to pay for this one because she can't tell.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
Them she's got the money. She doesn't want to use
her money exactly. She got to buy them tickets. You
know what I'm saying, people's coming to town.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
For those two.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
She'll be like his uncle.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
Jason, you know, does he have tickets?

Speaker 1 (12:16):
Yeah? So I love Pitbull, don't they the twenty some things?

Speaker 2 (12:19):
It is so odd, isn't it. She was like, I
will die if I don't go to this pit Bull shop.

Speaker 4 (12:23):
Corl and the moms.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
It's very odd audience.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
I don't understand this generation.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
But yeah, no, so ill could be worse, though, Kyle,
it could be like I was, well, I figured if
we were going with it on the air, wasn't too crazy.
But my sister's eight years younger, and I'm fortunate knock
on wood well now that she's grown up. But she
never came to me for anything. That was like so
dire that that I had to keep it from my parents.

Speaker 6 (12:44):
Nothing like because you were yeah you were boy in
the room. Yeah yeah, yeah, she couldn't come to you.
She probably called your aren't you got a cool aunt?

Speaker 5 (12:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (12:55):
You know probably and Paula.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Yeah, I mean, I'm also currently holding a secret something
that happened in her relationship that my parents don't know about.
And so I was recently at dinner and in front
of my mom could not give this dude that she's
dating a hard time. So I had to wait till
my mom went to the bathroom for me to give
him a stern talking to. And then she came back
from the bathroom, and I'm like.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Oh yeah, if my sister called me and said, hey,
this is like you need I need you to handle this,
you can't tell anybody. I would honor that. I would
honor that. I would if my sister were like, come on,
I would honor that.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
You would hang that over her head. You'd be like,
he would do her?

Speaker 1 (13:31):
He did me.

Speaker 7 (13:32):
I'm afraid, one, you killed my mom's Okay, you kill
my mom's BCC.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
You try to make a graphic of you. You try
to kill her like the queen, and that will not
be stood for this.

Speaker 6 (13:50):
Man did a whole waiting by the phone episode with
me and Mom. Afraid.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
I had no idea she was on the phone. I
wouldn't tell her that she was on No, why'd you
make that graphic? Why'd you try and kill off the dog?
The legend dog fifteen years old and Kiki's like ha
ha ha, and then Mama Friend's like, no, no, you.

Speaker 4 (14:09):

have a nice show. You are not you're trying to
kill my mom's dog. Less with the dog. And then
I'll keep a secret. No, no, but I'm lucky. She
never like I never had to get her out of
jail or anything like that, but I would if she
needed me for that, I would honor that. I would

(14:34):
honor that.

Speaker 6 (14:35):
I think you would get her out of jail for sure,
but you would definitely tell your mom.

Speaker 4 (14:38):
Yeah right, uh huh own a ride to the jail house.

Speaker 7 (14:41):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
After I got her out of jail, then I might
leverage that information somehow, but waiting by the phone problem.

Speaker 5 (14:49):
No.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
In two minutes French show.

Speaker 5 (14:51):
All right, the Freend Show is on. It feels good,

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Happy stories. We shared with you every day on the show. Kaylen,
what'd you find?

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Thank you Jason for sending my favorite story perhaps ever.
Meet Messi.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
He's the longest serving TSA passenger screening Canine at Reagan
National Airport. His coworkers say he's lovable and hard working
and he was clearly born to work for TSA because
he enjoys watching airplanes. And after six years of serving
his community, he's officially retiring. Following his final shift of
searching for traces of explosives.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
His last sniff was a planted training aid to.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
Get him to his retirement party, where he identified the
device and he was showered with tennis balls. Messi's handler, Peter,
will now adopt him in his retirement. He removed his
do not pet patch to mark his transition from a
working dog. Messi will now spend his time lounging and
playing with tennis balls whenever he wants.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
Love it. Those dogs always freak me out too. I
have nothing in my bag. I don't have anything. I
don't have heroin or coke normally, but yet every time
I'm like going through customs or TSA and I see
a dog, I like, get my stuff in movie Clu'm
afraid they're gonna smell something that's not there.

Speaker 4 (16:05):
You know, especially now because they make you do that
little waltz little and the dogs like going between the people.
I'm like, what is going on.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
I don't even think about it, Like today's not the
day for a prank. They're messy, Like we ain't playing
you're boys trying to get the Sacramento all right, Like
I've never been to Sacramento. But anyway, in Minnesota, a
team of Good Samaritans and highway rescue personnel, we're able
to get together to save a stranger trapped unconscious inside
a burning car. I want to believe that I'm one

(16:36):
of these people that would like jump into action and
like that adrenaline would take over and that you would
put aside the fact that you could die. You know,
it's to lift the car and whatever. But yeah, there
were six people that pulled over, left out of their
cars and then went to an SUV that had run
off the highway and burst into flames. Along with the

(16:56):
Freeway Incident Response team in Minnesota, bunch of people were there.
They smashed the windows, They pulled the man out to safety.
He was a seventy one year old who lost consciousness
behind the wheel of his Honda and when color and
motion returned to his vision, that was when the window
was smashed. They pulled him out. He lived. He's alive today.
Because of six or seven, five or six good Samaritans

(17:17):
who stopped to help, which is incredible.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
It's amazing.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
Yeah, it really is. All right, let's come back. We'll
do the throwback throwdown name that soon battle. Rufio's back
with six wins. Kiki has two though, yes I do

President Biden has signed into law a TikTok ban. It
must be solder band before the end of the year.

Speaker 6 (17:53):

gonna happen before the end of the year.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
I'll just say that I'm scared. Wow that way graphics

Speaker 1 (18:07):
Oh man, okay. TikTok's CEO has responded, rest assured we're
not going anywhere. They tend to take legal action against
President Biden. Airline passengers will soon see some relief when
it comes to refunds and so called junk fees. Also,
if flights are canceled or delayed, you'll be entitled to
money cash paid back to your account whatever you paid
for it, so less hassle with refunds on canceled flights

and all kinds of different WiFi doesn't work, you'll get
paid back for that, all kinds of different stuff. Walmart
has removed self checkout lanes, but not because they care
about customer service, because everybody's stealing from them. Damn. According
to research, Direxel University found that the plan for self
checkout is backfired. Theft rates have gone up and some
customers have been irritated with them. So we're going back

(18:52):
to humans, guys. And near sightedness is reaching epidemic levels.
Half of the world will need glasses by twenty fifty.
Why would you think, because the uptick in people spending
more time focusing on objects immediately in front of their eyes,
whether it's screen, a book, or a drawing pad. The
time that we spend focusing on something with an arm's
length of our faces dubbed near work, the greater the

(19:14):
odds of having near sightedness. Half of the people in
the world will need glasses in the next twenty five
years because of them, and nothing will change. We're still
gonna I'm still gonna like my neck is gonna hurt.

it declared that watermelon was in fact a vegetable, but
not just any vegetable the official state vegetable. Why because
one state senator says it's a member of the cucumber family,
and they were not entirely Often it's decision to welcome

(20:48):
the watermelon as a vegetable. Apparently, the plant family does
include cucumbers, pumpkins, squash, and zucchini. Since the broadest definition
of a vegetable refers to almost any harvested part of
a place, watermelons could indeed be classified as a vegetable.
