Speaker 2 (00:02):
Do you have what it takes to battle show biz
Shelley in the show Biz showdown Bees?

Speaker 1 (00:08):
Yes? Are you a pen person? You care? Are you
a pen snob like I am?

Speaker 3 (00:11):
I'm not a pen snob, but I do like to
write stuff down. I'm like you. I like to take notes.
I have all kinds of paper and notepads around my house.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Yeah I got.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
I mean you got to meet my friend, my friend
Brendan from at Listationers, not even a sponsor. The amount
of for advertising I give him it is incredible.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
Been there. I think they sell all kinds of stationary.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Family owned business. Yeah, well it's called at Listationers. They
do sell stationary. They also sell hot dogs. No, they don't.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
They don't just give from that side. Remember you went
to the site. I got it.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
I got a nice uh notebook, another notebook, except this
it was a gift and it had my name embossed
on it. It did because they have an embossing machine there.
They can stamp your name on the front of your
notebook mammogram.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
It was a gift for someone else with your name.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
It was a gift from them to me, from my
undying love and support. Okay, I mean it's a family
owned business for like seven hundred it's been there for
seven hundred years, you support. That's an exact number, by
the way, seven hundred years. It's been been there since
before Columbus Wow sailed the ocean blue. And so was
that Chipotle right next to it? Survived the Great Chicago Fire.

(01:19):
It did, it did, all the pants survived, every single pen.
You know why because Brendan's great great great grandfather stood
there with a bucket and sought the flames off himself.
That is, that would be a quite tragic place to
be during the Chicago fire, a paper storm. He saved

(01:41):
every he did, he did, and then he went next
door to Chipotle, set himself a burrito to celebrate, you know,
with a head nod. Yeah, all right, Oh Jesus Lord, Adriana,
how you doing?

Speaker 4 (02:00):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Are you a pens?

Everyone going to Google wherever you're listening to us at
the stags, go buy something it's nice, and then I'm
gonna they're just nice.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
People's family own the whole.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
I know, the whole family, mom, dad, brothers, I know
they're all nice people, you know, Like I like a local,
one off business. I like a chained business too, but
I like a local one off business. I don't know,
but I'm just saying. I'm not discriminating, but I was.
I respect these people. These people are taking on the
staples and the office max. Every single day. They're standing

(02:34):
on business and going no. Our one store we sell persevere.
I know you can get pens anywhere, but buy them
from me, you know what I mean? Yeah, kind of
like us, right we stand on business every day and
we're like, we might be in eighty seventh place right now,
but damn it, we will fight.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
We will fight.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
We went from number one in June, we went from
having all the listeners to literally apparently zero, Like literally,
according to the measurement tool, no one listens. Like literally
everyone decided collectively, no more fridge, Like we're done.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
How can that be that we talk about stationary, I
don't understand.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
That's what I'm saying. Where you're going to get a
penalty pens? I don't where.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Else would you hear a five minute rant about pen quality?

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Nowhere else? It's very very relatable.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
I'll tell you where you're going to hear it on
about three other shows tomorrow. It takes them a couple
of days to review the content and then cherry picked
the best stuff and then and then reuse it.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
That's how we lost everybody, because they just move on
the next day.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
The thing, I have a news alert for you. If
you like things and other shows, listen to us and
you'll hear them first and then boom, mainly because we
stole them from other people that you never heard of before.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
So that's that's how we do it.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
Reverse the college.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Yeah, we at least steal from other cities. So that's
my that's my pro tip. It's just steal from like,
you know, Jacksonville or whatever and then use it here
and nobody will ever know.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
That's a good thing because the child labor people were
reaching out somebody asking for your phone. Yeah, it's oh shaw,
I wanted to have a chat with you. Then apparently
it's against allow what you're doing. Okay, So one hundred
and fifty bucks is the price, Adriana, It really is
something that I know, Like I can see who's calling
