(00:00):
Good morning. Good afternoon.
Good evening. Whenever you are welcome to two
men with a mic. Well, welcome back.
Hey, it's been a while. Yeah, we're alive.
So we were. We were.
We were kind of mean. We left everybody on a
cliffhanger. Our last episode, Jen was going
(00:23):
in for brain surgery. And then we missed a couple
weeks. So to let everybody know that
the worst did not happen. Jen is OK.
She did have some complications in the hospital and had to stay.
Sorry, losing my voice. Had to stay a little longer than
(00:46):
we planned. And she's very sore.
They put a alien in her skull. So what?
What kind of alien? I don't know.
I think it's grey alien. It's hard to tell.
Oh, those are cybernetic organisms, do you?
Yes, yes, I know. And so she's got that in and
(01:12):
it's been a slow, slow recovery.That was about two weeks ago.
Yeah, she is. She is generally OK, but she is
just really down for the count and she's making a slow and
steady recovery. So, you know, I thought it was
kind of rude. We were like, yeah, Jen's going
into brain surgery, see y'all next week.
(01:34):
And then we didn't come on the air for two weeks.
But that was actually because wegot Mike and I got sick, so.
Yeah, I so. Yeah, Mike got the man flu.
That was a funny video that you sent dude.
(01:56):
Yeah, and then apparently I got the man flu.
Yeah. And so, you know, it's, it's
funny, people just don't understand.
So correct me if I'm wrong, Mike, you, you your and your and
your ex both got the man flu, right?
And. No, it was actually my my son
got it first. Oh, your son.
(02:17):
Yeah, actually my my ex must have had an immunity for it
because she didn't get it. Oh yeah, first my son got it and
then I got it from him. Oh, I thought she got it too,
but. Yeah, she must.
Yeah. I don't know how we it's it's
probably the worst bio weapon the government has released yet.
(02:40):
OK, I was waiting for a laugh there brother.
Sorry brother. No, I don't know what it was
that was I'm. I'm yeah, it's definitely a
weapon to thin to to thin the men down, to make the men weak.
Yeah. It doesn't seem to affect women,
(03:00):
Yeah. Yeah, they probably just wanted
to wipe out the the man and leftthe women behind so they could
cook for them and clean and stuff.
Yeah. Every joke I've tried to make
this morning is falling flat. No, I will say I don't know what
it was and, and my son got it and it wiped him out and then I
(03:23):
got it and it's, I think it's been like almost three weeks now
and it's the worst cold flu I, Iever had.
Like I, I can't even, I, well, Italked to it.
It didn't end up being my timetable, but a nurse was
talking to people at Kaiser, youknow, doctors and nurses and
trying to get medicine and stuffand, and they just told me it's
(03:46):
a really awful flu season. And there's a totally
particularly nasty flu bug goingaround and a nurse who had it
said her timetable was basically5 days of solid suffering and
then about 8 days of lingering symptoms.
So I think I've gone longer thanthat.
But I can tell you, like the first week, I, I, I've just
(04:09):
never, I, I was bedridden. I, I and I couldn't do anything.
It was really awful. But I and I did my best, though,
to stay away from my ex because I didn't want her to get it.
And but it I yeah, anyway, it was awful.
So what's how? How is yours going?
Well, I don't know, you know, it's it's just been really
(04:34):
tough. Don't I haven't had any of the
nausea or any of that stuff. Just mine is just head cold and
fatigue and you know, runny nose.
And then I take Dayquil and Nyquil and.
Oh yeah. That stuff kind of helps, but it
doesn't really help. I hate that stuff actually.
I feel like it. Makes me feel sicker.
(04:56):
Yeah, that's exactly what I said.
Yeah. Last night I was like, I don't
know if this stuff's making it better or worse.
I always felt like people do thecosts are, but I always felt
like I hate it because yeah, it makes me feel sicker so but some
people like dose on that stuff and swear by it.
But for me, I was like, Nah, this is like I took a spoonful
of more disease or something, you know, full of disease helps
(05:23):
the problem compound. No, it's been awful.
I'm so sorry to hear that you have it.
I, I, I still have it, although I, I'm, I can do stuff now and
I'm going around and I was told that if, as long as you don't
have a fever, you're not contagious, but it's a, it's a
(05:44):
nasty damn flu, dude. Yeah, well, that's why they call
it man flu, you know 'cause. That was so funny though, 'cause
this flu worked me over and thatand just concerned about other
things and, you know, things happening in the world and all
that. It just totally worked me over.
(06:05):
And so I confessed like I becamea big baby.
Like I was like. I'm alone and I'm sick and
nobody loves me, nobody cares. And like, I, I got, I, I had
like an emotional whirlwind because I was like, so broken
down by, by this flu. Yeah, yeah.
(06:28):
But so Mitch sent this video. It's pretty funny because I, I
was dead and, and I, and I was just like crying for help and
stuff. And Mitch sent, Mitch sent this
video to me and, and it was likethis big muscley macho guy.
And he's, and he's talking abouthow he has the man flu.
And so he's, he's like, well, you know, I've been really sick
(06:50):
all this week and I've got the man flu, you know, so all I
could do was kind of like lay onthe couch and go and he goes.
But you know, that. And then my wife, like, I don't
know, she, she, she got the flu too, but then she went out and
like put a new engine in the carand like built a tower on her
(07:10):
house. And so, you know, while I was on
the couch going help me, help me, help me.
But but so so my wife that she must not have gotten the the
same flu because she also like repaved the whole street in
front of our house while she hadit.
So she must have had the girl flu, right?
Like, like the reason I'm layingon the couch crying like a baby
(07:32):
because I'm about to die. That's the man flu.
So but the fact that she went out and ran for office and
became president of Australia while she was sick with this
means that must be the girl flu.Like it's a longer flu.
Yeah, I, I told Chuck yesterday.I was like, I was like, yeah, I
(07:53):
got the, you know, my, well, mom's back in the hospital.
So I was talking to him and I was like, yeah, I can't, I can't
make it over there. I got this man flu.
I'm not doing very well. I said.
And then I said, well, and Jim just had brain surgery, but
she's all good. Oh God.
(08:15):
Excuse me, God. That's funny.
We're not doing very well with this man.
Flu. We just it, it kicks our ass,
man. It did dude.
I, I honestly I'm amazed at it. It it's the sickest I've ever
been in my whole life and it wasfor me it was it's been like 2
solid weeks of suffering and nowI think I'm into the lingering
(08:37):
symptoms but I'm still not rightso.
How's the G man? Is he all better?
He's still got lingering symptoms too, but I'll tell you
like, like maybe it was last weekend.
I, I took him out, you know, to like a wilderness place and he
(08:57):
was very happy to be there because he'd only been at home
sick, you know, and, and he goesstir crazy in your house.
So I, I wanted to get him out someplace beautiful.
And, and, and we did. But when we got back, we have a
hammock in the backyard. And all you wanted to do after
our our excursion to the wilderness was to climb into the
(09:17):
hammock. And dude, he laid in that
hammock with me just gently rocking him for six hours
straight. Like, yeah, like normally he
would. Hey, Kitty, don't do that.
My cat's destroying the drapes. That's that's that's why we love
them, because they destroy the drapes and pee on the towels.
(09:40):
Yeah. Anyway, no.
Yeah, he's doing a lot better. I'm doing a lot better.
But it we were both just flooredby this thing.
Hey, don't do that, all right? My father is being an asshole.
He just shredded the drapes here.
Why don't you go outside? Isn't it raining there?
(10:02):
Yeah, actually it's not. He's being I.
Have a cat in the hell? I have an asshole cat.
He's definitely an asshole. Sorry, I should Oh wait, do we
have AG rated chef? I love, I love him, but but
yeah, he's he's a a total brat. Anyway, yeah, he's been going
(10:25):
crazy though, because normally he's an outside cat and he
hasn't been able to go outside because it's been raining cats
and dogs. But where did that expression
come from? It's.
Green. I don't know.
But so he's kind of going crazy because he just wants to be
outside, but he hasn't been ableto.
And I don't know what he was doing.
(10:45):
Basically, he just wants attention 24/7.
And the minute I don't do that, then he destroys stuff.
So yeah, he's like a kid. I love him.
I love him though. But he's totally, he's totally a
pill dude. Yeah.
So that's been our adventure forthe last couple of weeks.
(11:08):
That's where we've been. Yeah, 5.
But now it's it's part Cyborg and.
Well, but so in reality, what did they do?
They, they did put a mechanical device in her brain, right?
Well, on the surface of her skull, Yeah, between the skin
and the skull. And then they drill the hole,
yeah. And put like a shop vac tube
(11:32):
down into the brain somewhere. And then the other, yeah, you
know, like a vacuum or something, a port.
Yeah. And then they put the they ran
the other end behind her ear andthen down into her abdomen where
the fluid drains. And then in between it is that
(11:54):
machine that is like a pressure valve, so that when the pressure
gets over a certain number then it releases fluid so.
Oh my God, which one is the hot water and which one is the cold
water? Absolutely.
(12:15):
That's funny. I'm sorry, man.
I. Finally I said a funny joke.
God. Yes, I know.
I've been. Having a bad set today.
No, that was a good one. All right, guys.
Sorry, not sorry guys for this interruption, but guess what?
Today is Tuesday rants with Amber.
(12:42):
Welcome back to the studio, everyone.
Wow, thank you. Thank you.
I'm happy to be here too. What how I knew you guys were
here for me. Hey everyone and happy Tuesday.
I hope you guys are all having an amazing day and an amazing
week so far. And happy November.
(13:04):
We are in another one of my favorite months.
I really just think I love all of the Burr months.
Like you can't go wrong with anyof them.
And I know those are the last three letters of my name as
well, so maybe that has something to do with it.
But they're just the best holidays at the end of the year.
(13:24):
And I'm just so excited because Thanksgiving is coming up soon.
And as you guys know, Thanksgiving is my favorite
holiday. But I want to rewind and talk a
little bit about my birthday. I had the best birthday and
birthday week ever. It was so much fun.
(13:44):
My sister came into town into New York and she visited me for
a whole week and she planned a whole bunch of activities and
fun things for us to do. We did a lot of stuff off of my
bucket list on my actual birthday.
We got to go on a picnic in Central Park and the leaves are
(14:05):
just starting to turn like thoseorangey yellow colors.
So it was absolutely beautiful. And we stopped in at this really
cool place called Charcuterie. And basically it's like a Subway
but for charcuterie boards. And they will put anything you
want on your board and you can choose from all the different
(14:25):
meats and cheeses and nuts and olives, like all the things.
It's really cool and I highly recommend if you're ever in the
city. And that was like so fun.
We also did a lot of like birthday shopping and I got a
lot of my free birthday items, which I always love getting.
And then the next day was so much fun as well.
(14:48):
We got to go to the Mamma Mia Broadway show, which has always
been my dream to do Mamma Mia ismy favorite movie and so getting
to see it on Broadway was so much fun.
We also went to the New York Transit Museum, which was really
cool and got to see all of the old subway cars that they used
to have and even like the old ads that used to be in the
(15:10):
subway cars was really cool and interesting.
So that was really fun. I also had class that day, so it
was a little bit more of a chillday.
We walked around the city and wetried a bunch of different food
restaurants. I took my sister to Stardust
Diner, which she had not been tobefore, and basically it's this
really cool diner kind of in theTimes Square area, Broadway
(15:33):
area, and they have singing waiters and waitresses, and it's
amazing. So they do like all of these
Broadway songs and they serve you your food and it's so much
fun. And then the next day was Friday
and we got to go ice skating at Rockefeller, which was so much
(15:54):
fun. And we also got dessert from a
place right by Rockefeller. I think it's pronounced like
glaze, like GLACEI don't know ifit's glossy or glaze, but it's
so good. They're known for doing like
their marshmallow charred hot chocolate rims and they don't
(16:14):
have that going on right now because it was still fall.
I mean they had a couple things like that, but like they're that
specific drink doesn't come in till like mid November for
Christmas. So we got the pumpkin like
cookie with ice cream. It was so good, so good
definitely not overhyped like this place is talked about a lot
(16:35):
on the Internet and it is not overhyped.
I promise you it's so good and we just had so much fun and we
also got to go see the movie regretting You, which was super
good. I've been wanting to see that
movie as soon as I saw the trailer come out and I
absolutely loved it. I think everybody should go and
(16:57):
watch it. It was, I literally ride, but
like also good tears to like, you know, happy and sad.
There is like a mix. And then also we went to a
bookstore called Albertine, and it's really cool because it's in
the French embassy and yeah, they have books in French and
(17:20):
they have books in English. And it was just really cool
because on the ceiling they havelike all the constellations.
So it was super pretty. And we also got to do one of my
absolute dreams, which was in Central Park.
You can sail model boats just like they do in Stuart Little.
And that was like amazing. I've always wanted to do that.
(17:41):
Definitely bucket list for sure.And then the next day was
Saturday. We started off by going to
Breakfast at Tiffany's. So the Tiffany Jewelry store,
they actually have a cafe at thevery top called Blue Box Cafe.
And it like was created after the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's
(18:01):
with Audrey Hepburn. And it is such an amazing little
cafe restaurant. You definitely need a
reservation to go. And they had like this whole tea
setup situation that we did and it was just so good.
I've always wanted to do that. I love that movie so much.
And then something I did not know about, which my sister
found is there's a Museum of dogs in New York City.
(18:25):
And how I did not know about it,I don't know.
But it was so cool. And there was like hardly
anybody there. So sucks for all the people who
weren't there because this placeis amazing and you guys should
go check it out when you're in New York.
And it was just so cool. There's tons of artwork and
paintings and sculptures and like drawings and like just all
(18:45):
these things. It's all dog.
It's so cool. And then, and we also got to go
in the fall, they do a pumpkin arch on Pier 17.
And so it's a really cute picture spot.
And we also just had a lot of great food that day.
And it was just such a fun, nicekind of chill day.
And then Sunday we got brunch ata place called Chateau La Wolf
(19:08):
in Queens, which was really good.
We did a lot of dog stuff, obviously, because dogs are my
thing. So I loved it.
And then we also went to this thrift store called Thrift and
they have like stuff that you can thrift, but they also have
like a charm bracelet making area.
And what's really cool about this thrift store is that all
(19:31):
the stuff that you buy, like thecharm bracelet stuff, like
actual items that you thrift, all the proceeds go towards type
1 diabetes research and awareness.
And I just think that's so amazing.
And like the owner, she also hastype 1 diabetes, so it's just
like really sweet that she's doing that.
And we made charm bracelets and it was so much fun.
(19:53):
We went with a fall theme for our bracelets, so they were like
very spooky vibes. And then we also went to a
pumpkin patch. That was on a rooftop, which was
so cool. It was very different than like
the pumpkin patches that are in California, but I loved it.
It was so much fun and there is so many pumpkins everywhere.
(20:14):
And we also rode the Roosevelt Island tram, which is really
cool. It's like in the air.
It's kind of like picture like aski tram thing that they do.
It's similar to that. It was really fun and we also
went to a bookstore called SweetPickle Books.
So if you like books and you like Pickles, this is the place
(20:35):
for you because they sell both. It was awesome.
And then on Monday, which was our last day together because my
sister had her flight Tuesday morning, we grabbed bagels, of
course in the morning. And then we also went to this
coffee shop called Paducah Bakery and they are known for in
(20:55):
the fall time doing ghosts on the sides of the coffee cup.
So it's more like a picture thing.
But I also wanted to try their coffee.
Their coffee was mid. It was OK, but it was definitely
worth getting the picture for sure.
And then we also went to Coney Island and we had lunch there
and then in the evening we had aTaylor Swift night at a bar
(21:18):
called Joyface. And it was so much fun.
I mean everybody was all dressedup and decked out and it was
just so great. And they're playing all of the
music, a lot of new songs from her new album.
And there was like drinks that were named after her.
We got some non alcoholic drinksthat were really good and it was
(21:39):
just so much fun. I was really sad.
This was my first birthday, likenot being home so that was
really hard. But it was great, like getting
to video call with everybody andmy family sent me a birthday
package that I really loved. And it was just a really great
time. And I had a really amazing
birthday. So thank you everybody for all
(21:59):
the birthday wishes and calls and texts and everything.
I love you guys so much. And then also I just want to
give a shout out to my mom. She just had her brain surgery
and she is now home recovering. And I just want to say she is
absolutely amazing and just so brave and just such a trooper.
(22:22):
And I'm so proud of her and, andI hope that her recovery goes
very smoothly and that she's able to rest and just be out of
pain soon. So keep her in your thoughts and
prayers. But I will be seeing you guys
next week. Bye.
Thank you so much for listening to your favorite ranter today.
(22:44):
Yes, yes, I love that energy. Now, if you guys need to reach
out to us at all for anything, even psychiatric help, you can
reach us at the number two Men with a Mic.
Yeah, we should probably changethat.com.
And you can leave a message. You can also e-mail us at the
(23:07):
number twomenwithamic@gmail.com.You can leave a comment on the
Spotify page just under the episode.
Thanks, guys. Bye.
To recap, she had to like totally shave her head and her
hair is growing back a little bit now.
And but I mean, she's got the pain of just dealing with the
(23:27):
procedure is still there. You know, she doesn't feel good.
She's fatigued. And you know, it just takes a
long time to recover. There were two surgeons in the
procedure. So yeah, it wasn't, it didn't
take them very long. It was like 3 hours.
(23:48):
And then what was weird was, well, then we, so we finally got
to see her like at like hour 5, right?
And we go back to the recovery room and, and they're like,
well, there's no bed. She's probably going to stay in
here. And, you know, we like, we got
her up to, you know, she's like,oh, I got to go to the bathroom.
So her sister was there. Denise, Thank you, Denise, for
(24:11):
coming up here and helping. And so she, Denise walked her to
the bathroom, which was, you know, 50 steps.
So she, you know, this is like after four hours of surgery.
I mean, yeah, 4 hours after surgery.
So, you know, she's up, she takes a walk, she goes to the
bathroom, she comes back, you know, so we're, we're like, OK,
(24:33):
you know, I mean, overall she's doing pretty good.
You know, she's asked. We got her some beef broth
because she hadn't been able to eat, you know, and stuff because
of the surgery. Yeah.
So then they finally go, oh, youknow what?
We were going to keep her hair in recovery all night, but a
room opened up, so we're going to transport her upstairs.
So we go upstairs to her room, we get her all settled, we hang
(24:56):
out. It's like midnight now, right?
So we're like, OK, you know, we're going to take off and then
we'll come back in the morning because, you know, we got to go
shower and sleep and and then we'll come back and she's like,
OK, you know, I'll see you guys in the morning and all that.
So the next morning comes aroundand we walk into her hospital
(25:20):
room. You know, we were expecting,
basically we were expecting her to, you know, be up and up and,
and going and, and, you know, basically we were supposed to be
discharged. So we were expecting to be
discharged in a couple hours, right?
That was the way based on the day before and all that.
Anyway, we walk into the room and and it was probably one of
(25:42):
the scariest reality checks I'vehad in a long time.
They had like 3 nurses standing around her bed.
She was wearing one of those bags on her face, those oxygen
bags. It's not not the cannula oxygen
tube, but not just the mask, butthe mask with the bag.
(26:03):
She looked completely out of it and all this stuff like that.
And, and I walked in and the first thing when I saw it, I was
all like, what happened? And, you know, the, the nurses
turned to us and, and they were like, well, she's right now.
She's OK. You just need to know that right
(26:24):
now she's OK. Well, yeah, we're like, what do
you mean she's OK? Because the hospital, nobody
called us. Nobody said anything.
So they said, well, approximately 2 hours ago or
whatever, the nurse was in here and she had a grand Mal seizure,
(26:45):
which is a really, the really bad seizure where you, where you
shake and, and all that. They said we've already taken
her down to, you know, get, you know, CT scans and, and all of
that. And we're like, wait, what,
what's, you know, we were just so confused.
And that seizure, they don't really know.
(27:08):
They hooked her back up about a year or two ago.
I don't know which episode we talked about it, but oh,
something, there's one of our episodes, something in a seizure
or something like that. There's a episode about Jim
being checked out for seizures, but they basically did the same
thing. They hook up like 20 or 30 leads
(27:28):
on the brain and then they put acamera on her and they monitor
her and all this. Anyways, we had to do all that
again for 24 hours, but the seizure just completely knocks
you out physically. So Jen was in and out of
consciousness for probably 24 hours.
(27:52):
So in other words, she would wake up and kind of open her
eyes or open one eye and then she would kind of look at you
for a minute, half a smile and then just back out.
And, and it was like she couldn't.
It was like she was fighting to to stay alive or awake or
(28:12):
whatever. So it was really scary.
And it was just completely out of nowhere.
Like I said, we were walking in.We were just like, OK, yeah, you
know, we'll take her home and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
and all that. And, and you walk into that and
it was it was a gut punch. It's too great.
(28:37):
Do that. Yeah.
And so she she basically after it, she was there till Friday.
So she was supposed to come homeWednesday and she came home
Friday. So yeah, it it was, it was
(29:03):
scary. She has no recollection of the
first couple days after surgery.Wow, probably a good thing, huh?
Yeah, but I mean, she doesn't remember the recovery room where
she was feeling fine and had braoff and walked to the bathroom.
Excuse me, I'm sorry. She doesn't.
(29:23):
She doesn't remember any of that.
So wow, yeah, it's a it it, you know, she's still struggling
with some of the after effects of that seizure.
She ended up biting her lip really bad.
(29:45):
So her lip still doesn't have fillings because she severed the
nerves. Oh no.
And, you know, she just, it's a very, it's very slow.
Having that seizure really set her back physically.
So yeah, it's been a very, very tough couple of weeks.
(30:08):
I mean, obviously, you know, Mike and I getting the flu is
like nothing compared to what she went through.
But, you know, it's, it's just been a really rough couple of
weeks. And, you know, she is making
progress now. She's, you know, slowly.
(30:30):
It's, it's, and I, I think in, Idon't know, maybe that's because
of our ages, you know, like you're talking about, you know,
it's, it's like the older you get, the harder it is to feel
better. It's amazing, you know?
Yeah, I, I hate to do that 'cause as, as you know, I, you
(30:51):
know, I think we're creating reality with our.
Thoughts. But but it as a general
statement, it is kind of safe tosay I think that, yeah, you
don't bounce back as MU as quickly or as you do when you're
young when you get these things or when you go through these
things like you just don't heal as quickly.
It's weird. I I would not recommend old age
(31:12):
to anybody. Yeah.
Really. Yeah, definitely avoid old age
if at all possible. Yeah, if you can do that.
I mean, there's a reason that the CIA killed Jim Morrison and
Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix atage 27.
And really, it was the merciful thing.
They just didn't want them to get old and get a flu that you
(31:34):
never get over. Yeah, there you go.
That's what it was. It was a mercy killing.
It's about, you know, that that or it's the 27 club of the rock
stars. You know, like Kurt Cobain
killed himself when he was 27 and then supposedly Jim Morrison
OD when he was 27. Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin.
(31:55):
And who was the other 10? Jimi Hendrix, right?
Supposedly, but, but it created like this kind of like darkly,
poetically romantic sort of concept, like the idea of living
fast and dying young and I don'tknow, like if you were all
wrapped up in, in rock'n'roll and, and, and the life and all
(32:17):
that stuff. It was like that was the age
that you're supposed to, to, to dis disappear from the planet,
you know? Do you remember that?
Like the 27? Club.
Yeah, well, they made a whole movie about it with.
Yeah, it's called Logan's Run. Oh, right, right, yeah, that's
that's a better example where with in that movie, I think they
(32:40):
they they held their 30 and thenyeah, what what I forgot what
happens? What do they do They.
Population control. They just all go die.
In something, yeah, I would, I would say I, I, I would say
like, you should go to the Logan's Run place at about 30
(33:01):
and trust me, you won't be missing anything.
But like old age, you know, where you get sick and well, and
and also you'll be you'll be able to skip ageism where when
you're old, nobody wants to hearanything you have to say.
You'll be able to like. What else will they be spared?
(33:21):
From you won't need your Social Security.
Yep, you won't need any of that.You don't have to worry about
retirement anymore. You can just party till you drop
when you're 30. And then cuz everything after
that is just like aches and pains and misery and sadness and
betrayal and and then you kind of turn into a a troll and then
you die. Yeah.
(33:43):
Pretty much right. Yeah.
There was a show also that sort of dealt with population
control, and the way they did itwas they had ATM machines and
money was free. But the more money you drew,
then the more time withdrew to buy food and groceries, then the
(34:04):
more times your name was submitted into a lottery.
And if you're drawn for the lottery, then you're part of the
group that gets executed. Oh, OK.
So everything was really cheap. They kept the price of groceries
down. OK.
And they turned everybody in theSoylent green.
(34:27):
Yep. Did you ever see that movie?
Which one? Actually, I've never seen it.
It's a Charlton Charlton Heston movie and it and it's supposed
to be a a science fiction classic, but I believe the plot
of the movie again to deal with population control and and maybe
famine is that they they they, Idon't know if they kill people
(34:50):
at a certain age, but they startgiving the peasants something
called Soylent green, like as a food for them to eat, I think.
But then the big reveal in the movie is it turns out that
Soylent Soylent green is made from human beings.
So like. Yeah, something like that.
(35:10):
Did you OK? Yeah.
And Charles Heston got to. Deal with?
Yeah, I vaguely remember something about that.
Yeah, like Charles Neston on thebeach with the the Statue of
Liberty buried in the sand. No, that's like, that's no, I
know, but he always gets to do his Charles Neston yell.
So. But at the end, so at the ending
of Planet of the Apes, Charlton Heston's there with the the
(35:31):
buried Statue of Liberty and he's like you maniacs, you
really did it. Which, by the way, could be
applicable to our current world situation.
Yeah. But then at the end of finally
agreeing, he gets weeks to go. So I me a scream.
It's people Charlton always gets.
(35:53):
To yell. You always get the screaming
ending. Yeah, he gets this.
Screaming it, yeah. Anyway, probably all both those
movies will come true, but what?What, what official age do you
think you would say? Cut it off?
Because after that it's just oldage and misery.
I don't know. It's, I don't know.
(36:16):
I don't know, because it's hard to say because I think that for
everybody it's different. That's the thing.
That's that's why you can't do that.
I think that, that, you know, it's, I mean, yeah, we're, we're
whining and complaining now, butI feel like we both have stuff
to contribute, you know, I said we still have stuff to
(36:40):
contribute, you know, and, and all that.
No, we don't. What are?
What are we? Got a son?
To raise. Oh, yeah.
Well, yeah, that's, yeah, that'strue.
I'm. I'm my son is a gift to the
world. So that's that's why I'm still
here. And he's only, what, 7?
Yeah, he's 7. So I don't know.
(37:02):
I I went through it. Oh, yeah.
OK. So I'm sorry.
Keep talking over the copy of the book.
I was just going to say you onlyget like a third of the way
through it. Yeah, no, my son is a delight
and he's my mission and he's my purpose and and I I'm grateful
to have him. I I did go through like a, a
swirl. Well, dude, I mean, come on.
(37:23):
We every every night on the news, it's like the the Doomsday
clock. The scientists say the Doomsday
Clock is only, you know, 30 seconds to.
Have you heard of the Doomsday clock that they show and stuff?
Yeah, I mean, that's been aroundforever.
Yeah, but so, so there's been like this thing in the air, like
we're we're going to have a nuclear war and we're all going
(37:45):
to die soon. Wait a minute.
Now I'm doing like classic. I forgot what I was going to
say. What did you say right before
that? We were talking about you're
only a third of the way through raising your kid, so you have
something to give back. Yeah, about old age and at what
age We think you know it. People should be terminated.
And I said you can't do it like that because, you know,
(38:09):
everyone's different. Oh.
Right, right. Yeah, It's hard to.
It's hard to pick an age when itsucks.
I don't know how I went from that to the Doomsday Clock,
except that perhaps it's on the back burner in my mind since
every night on the news they saywe're about to die in World War
Three, which is technically, I guess World War Four or World
(38:30):
War 5. Yeah.
I don't know when. When did this really start to
suck as an old guy? I I was watching.
I tried, I think it's the secondtime I tried to watch it, but
it's just totally unfunny. But there's, you know, that guy.
He does. He's the creator of the Family
Guy cartoon on on TV. Seth something and.
(38:50):
I love him, but I don't know him.
Yeah. He did that Ted movie with Mark
Wahlberg where the the teddy bears alive and very foul
mouthed. Yeah, I can't stand that.
Oh, you don't like him Or or youdidn't like that movie?
No. Really, I the first one I
laughed at the first one I thought was funny.
(39:11):
The second one was like super unfunny.
But anyway, he, that guy made a,it's supposed to be a comedy
Western. Yeah.
And I think it's called something like A Million Ways to
Die in the West or something. And so I, I tried to watch it
because I, I just wanted, I was searching for a laugh.
I thought maybe there was a chance that I could, that could
make me laugh. And it was just like instantly
(39:32):
awful and unfunny. But one of the things they said
was I only watched about 10 minutes of it and then I
couldn't take it anymore becauseit really, really was not funny.
But there's a scene where like the Seth, the cowboy is like
talking to his girlfriend and his girlfriend's like breaking
up with him. And she goes, well, you know,
(39:53):
the, the average age that peopledie here in the Old West is 35.
So I got to, I got to find a better man than you before I
die, you know, kind of thing. But you'd imagine that like in
in the cowboy days, you know, and stuff like.
Like, Oh yeah, 35 was like old age.
Yeah, weird, huh? But that might be merciful.
(40:15):
I'm. I'm saying like you know,
everything after 35 gets pretty rash.
Yeah. The other thing that happens
after that age, as you get older, is you realize you've
been brainwashed and you're no longer the focus of the
brainwashing because now you're old and useless.
But before, like in our generation, you know, all the
(40:37):
TV, all the media, all the movies that it was targeted at
us while they socially engineered a new generation.
So, so for when you're young, you're like the babies of the
technocracy and they've got to brainwash you as quickly as
possible. So they're catering to you.
Like everything is movies are made for you and, and, and it's
(40:59):
all catering to you. But then you reach a certain age
and they're like, well, they're old and useless now.
Now we have to concentrate on the next generation coming up
and brainwash them as quickly aspossible.
And so then all the movies and TV and radio and music is
totally targeted at the youth. But you're, you're, you're an
old man kind of looking around going, wait a minute, all this
(41:22):
stuff used to be for me. And then you also notice that
like all the brainwashing they're targeting the use with
is just basically a a little tweak on the same way that they
brainwashed you. And so your your kid comes
running in and and and he's like, oh, you got to watch this
movie because it's got like a spaceship in it.
And they and then they travel through time.
(41:44):
But now you're an old man and you're like, I already saw that,
you know, they made that movie like 30 years ago in my
generation, you know, but what, what see like as you get old
and, and you see the younger generation being brainwashed is
kind of been there, done that. Like I, I, I remember, you know,
I love the Raiders, the Lost Arkand, and, and the, the, the
(42:05):
first couple Indiana Jones movies.
But my dad would be standing there and he hated them.
And, and I would, I would, I asked him why?
And he goes, because those are movie serials that, and I used
to watch those when I was a kid.And they're just ripping that
off and doing it again. So when when you reach like
middle age, you'll realize that you're no longer the focus of
(42:25):
interest for anything. And it's the use that the
government and the media and stuff is interested in.
And they're basically just retelling the same story again.
So there's nothing new for an old man to watch because they're
just telling the same story again to the kids in a slightly
different way, you know? And so like all entertainment
dries up because like, for instance, I, I, I watched this
(42:48):
new running man thing. And Oh yeah, I wanted to see
that, even though it's a remake.Yeah, you might like it did.
But for me it was. It was.
I thought it was just really tired and old and, and boring
and, and you've seen all those things before and there's
nothing fresh or clever in it. And so I was, I was completely
(43:10):
underwhelmed by that movie. But I suddenly realized that
like all the kids in the next generation coming up, like they,
they never saw that stuff before.
They didn't, they didn't even see the original running man,
you know, And so for them, this new running man, it's all brand
new. But for you and, and I as old
people, it's like, oh, well, we,we've seen that a million times,
(43:33):
you know, But so for, for the youth, though, I think remaking
and, and retreading and, and redoing the same thing that they
did to us, just dressing it up in different clothes.
Like it's all, it's all focused on the anyway.
I all, I'm like, I would give Brenny man a, a thumbs down.
And, but I bet there's a bunch of like young kids who've never
(43:56):
seen that stuff before. It's all new to them.
And so they would love it, you know?
Yeah. So yeah, another thing about the
the the government and the mediastops paying attention to you
and, and when you get old because they don't care anymore,
it's too late for you. It's done.
You're stuck and that's it. The only they care about the
(44:16):
youth. So there will be no more
entertainment for you after the age of 40, I guess.
And then, yeah, illnesses that you don't recover from very
quickly. And in general, a society that
completely disregards everythingyou say, which is very dumb
because the old people know whathappened and, and, and it's now
(44:40):
happening to the next generation.
And if the next generation wouldlisten to us, they would
actually have a a much better ride through this matrix.
But they won't. And that's part of social
engineering. They don't want the young
generation to listen to their elders because if they did, it
would probably be the end of thewhole brainwashing scheme.
(45:00):
But the, the next generation gets gets programmed and, and
then we try to tell them what's going on and they're like, we
don't want to listen to old men and you're a loser because
you're old and get away from us.And, and so they just are
dragged through the same thing again.
And then about 40, they'll wake up, realize what happened, see
(45:21):
that it's happening to their children, and then their
children won't listen to them either.
So yeah, sickness 0. Respect as an old man, nobody
listens to you. What else is wrong with being
old dude? It hurts.
Oh, yeah, it aches. There's nothing good about it,
(45:43):
dude. Actually, I remember years ago I
met this dude who was like a film scholar.
He was like a film professor andyeah, but yeah, he, he had
gotten old and and he was prettywiped out.
God rest his soul. Blessings to him.
But yeah, he he was sitting there, we were having a great
conversation about film and stuff.
And, and he just, he said, listen, don't get old.
(46:07):
I just want to tell you one thing.
He said getting old is not for, you know, getting old is only
for the brave. He literally said that like,
don't get old. What are we going to do about
this dude? I guess we have to, Oh, you know
what? There, there's a, you know, I, I
see all the like news. I guess everybody knows the
(46:30):
mainstream news is just totally fake now.
But I, I watch all kinds of, youknow, what used to be called
alternative news, which is in fact much closer to the truth.
But I watch all this stuff. And so one of the ideas out
there is that in our DNAI think we have something called
telomeres. And so like there are conspiracy
(46:53):
researchers, like running aroundand, and they're basically
saying that our telomeres were deliberately shortened so that
we wouldn't live as long. But if we extended the telomeres
in our DNA, we would actually live like forever.
Although by the time you're 40 and you realize what happened to
you, trust me, you will not wantto live forever.
(47:17):
But have you heard that about like, Oh yeah, well, all we have
to do is extend our telomeres and we don't have to deal with
this. Old age.
I don't I don't watch any of that.
Hey, I'll, I'll. I'll tell you it turned out to
be a hoax though, because I was running Oh, and, and, and, and,
and also it's, it's, it's the usual thing of see, the
(47:37):
government's hiding technology from us and stuff.
And they're going to live forever because they extended
their telomeres. But we, the peasants and the
subjects of these social experiments, we're just going to
die like usual because we can't extend our telomeres.
But so I, I contacted my, my nephew who I, who is studying
genetics at Yale, and actually he told me it wasn't true.
(48:02):
The thing about the telomeres, yeah, because I was like, hey
man, what? I want the government give us
our telomeres, dude. And and so he actually wrote
back to me. So maybe maybe I'll I'll I'll
read this so I can help put an end to like when conspiracy
theory. Do you want to?
Hear it? Or is this like totally boring
(48:23):
for the audience? No, I don't think you know why
not. Let's hear about telomeres.
OK, yeah, 'cause you will hear that from like all the
conspiracy researchers, like, OK, you know, just extend the
telomeres. So I, I wrote to Mackenzie
again, he's at Yale, I think he's in Yale grad school
studying genetics. And he says you really don't
(48:47):
want to extend your telomeres. He says there are whole families
with congenitally long telomeres.
They don't live longer than normal people and there is a
high risk of cancer and many, many recurrent cancers even in
just the same person because their their telomeres have been
extended. And and then he said the
(49:11):
telomeres are short for a reason.
And shorter ones, though associated with age, aren't
necessarily causing aging. They might be causing some
aspects of aging in some tissues, but it's really unclear
if that's true. So what do you think of that?
That was our last chance, man. Dude, we were going to extend
(49:33):
our telomeres and live forever. But Mackenzie says it's a hoax.
Yeah, there you go. Finally someone speaking the.
Truth that that was actually, I was happy to hear that, 'cause
I'm watching like, like I'm trying to think of some of the
names of these. Like there's a guy, Billy
Carson, I think his name is Billy Carson's, running around
(49:54):
and he's like, wait, see the government cut your telomeres
off. And if you don't extend the
telomeres, you, you know, but yeah, I, I checked with a, an
actual scientist or a guy who's studying to be a scientist and
he's like, no, that's silly. It's good to do that with all
that you hear, you know, in the in in in our crumb, deliberately
crumbling world that you know, that's that is one of the
(50:18):
subjects in the running man movie is that it is lightly a
social commentary. But one point that they
absolutely want to make in that movie is that you can't believe
a lot of what you see on TV on the Internet, you know, wherever
because they're lying and and things are being manipulated.
(50:39):
And but there the point, the movie makes a point like see,
because you believed that on TV it, you know, you were, you're
able to feel like you're better than everybody else.
And also, you know, look down onlike people.
I don't know, it's, it's I forgot what the point is.
I mean the point, but the point is like what you see on TV, you
(51:02):
should like investigate for yourself and and it makes the
point. At all and realize it's it's
people acting and and writers take liberties, yeah.
Yeah, so if you see something onTV and, and you're shocked by
it, you know, like a conspiracy theory or whatever, although
there are a lot, most of those conspiracy theories turned out
(51:24):
to be true. I went I, I think everyone
should now. But yeah, you should look into
it for yourself like I did on this telomeres thing, because a
lot of it is hooey. And that that is one of the
points of the Running Man, 'cause in the Running Man, they
keep putting stuff on TV about like how bad the Running Man is
to make people hate him. But it's all lies, you know,
(51:47):
it's, it's just the media inventing lies.
So yeah, one of the points that movie wants to make is that
like, you know, research it for yourself.
Don't just take things at face value, that kind of thing.
So yeah, I'm dead, but how are you going to get out of this old
age thing? The.
I don't know Mom's I I wanted tojump on another subject just.
(52:08):
OK. Just letting you know that mom's
back in the hospital. Oh no.
I haven't been able to go see her 'cause I got this flu and,
you know, I don't want to get her sick.
But yeah, she's, she's back in the hospital.
I don't know if you shout to her.
(52:30):
I did try to reach, you know, I tried to call her like yesterday
or the day before and and then the phone, she didn't answer.
And I I sent her like a little video of my son getting an award
at school, but I didn't I didn't, I didn't hear anything.
So but what? What landed her back and got?
Other infection and stuff, I don't know exactly.
(52:53):
I haven't talked to her. I talked to Chuck.
Uh huh. I've just been kind of staying
away because I got this cold. I'm afraid to give it to her
because it could, you know, it could actually be extremely
dangerous for someone her age. Yeah.
She's already in the hospital with an infection, you know.
Oh my God. But does she have her phone with
(53:14):
her? Like if I.
Called now OK. I will try to reach out to her.
I just did though. I was thinking, yeah, and I
guess she must have been going to the hospital.
Yeah, she went Friday afternoon.Uh huh.
(53:35):
That's see. So is she stable?
And stuff like have you gone to oh, you don't wanna go?
'Cause you don't wanna hear. Yeah.
I can't. I can't go over there with, with
all this. I haven't talked to her.
I tried. I've been talking to Chuck,
obviously. Yeah.
Has Chuck gone over to see her? Yeah.
Yeah, I see her. OK, good.
(53:55):
I'm really sorry to hear that. Yeah.
You're poor mom, dude. She's such a great person.
But yeah, I, well, not to, like,play in morbidly with what we've
been talking about, but, you know, she's a senior citizen and
she's up there. And so I hate to do this because
we create reality with our thoughts.
(54:16):
So I shouldn't. But no, you're.
Yeah. Old age is really hard and you
get sick and and it's harder to get over it.
And if we just converted to the Logan's Run system, I think we'd
be OK. No, no, that's bad.
And I don't want to diminish what's going on with your mom.
But yet again, this has been my worst show for jokes that fell
(54:40):
flat. Wouldn't you agree?
Well, I'm sorry, I'm just, you know, I've got this man flu and,
you know, I'm, I'm pushing through it, trying to do the
show. I just wanted to let everybody
know, 'cause it was, like we said, Jim going to brain surgery
and then we went dark. Yeah, for two weeks.
(55:00):
But it was just between the brain surgery and then Mike
getting sick and all of that because he, Mike got the man
flu. And you know how devastating
that is for men. So yeah, we just, I wish, I wish
we could share that man flu video with the audience because
it really was funny. We're the man flu.
(55:22):
So we're fetching, we're, we're complaining about everything.
But then, yeah, these women get the flu and they just go like
rebuild the Eiffel, Eiffel Towerand stuff.
Yeah, Manners complainers, right?
Yeah, we're just big babies. Yeah.
Oh, Cat, come on, he's attackingthe grapes.
(55:44):
He, oh, he can't. He wanted to come back in.
So now he's shredding the drapesagain, 'cause I'm not pass back
outside. And then he'll put two and two
together. Yeah, I might have to start
doing that 'cause he's totally out of control.
But you know. Hey, that audience, send send
prayers and blessings for Mitch's wife, Jen, and send
prayers and blessings for Mitch's mom, Sherry.
(56:07):
They're good people that the world needs, so I'm sure they
would they would appreciate someprayers and blessings.
Absolutely. Oh, but we only have one guy
listening and it's that meth head beat and his head on the
wall, right? Yeah, that's OK.
He could, he's on meth so he could pray for hours.
Oh yeah, that's going to be likea mega prayer because he's never
(56:28):
going. To sleep?
No. The mega prayer from the meth
head. Yeah.
Because he can't sleep so he canpray forever.
That's. Funny.
Yeah. There you go.
God, excuse me, I'm sorry. So, but so how's the home care
going with Jen? Like, is it?
(56:48):
Is it, is she comfortable and like, like you have her in a bed
and, and she's OK and you're giving her everything she needs
and all that or what? What's it like for her now?
Oh, it's like living hell because I'm sick.
So she does everything and yeah,yeah, so.
Yeah, so she is up and around and doing normal stuff, right?
(57:08):
Yeah, yeah, she just gets fatigued.
And you? Know don't do it.
OK, I'm sorry. The cat's on a rampage today, so
I'm going to pull gentle disciplinary tool #1 which is
water. I'm going to spray him up the
squirt gun if he climbs the drapes again.
Oh, good job. He saw the squirt gun and now
(57:29):
he's like, oh, maybe I shouldn'tfinish tearing those drapes.
He's he's acting off OK, I hate to do that.
He is totally out of control though.
He just, I've never seen a cat like this.
Like for every personality aspect of a cat and some people
love that, their personalities and some people hate them.
(57:51):
He is like 150% cat. He, he just, he's the center of
attention. He dominates everything.
I'm only his servant. He wakes me up to feed him.
He wakes me up to let him go outside.
He makes me, you know, he just, he runs in front of me.
He, he follows me everywhere. He totally stalked me And, and
(58:13):
it's because I'm his slave and he's, you know, His Majesty the
cat basically. He, he's very, very cat so.
So maybe we are here to be humanslaves, but it's just to cats,
because even the Egyptians had statues to cats.
They did. Cats have been regarded as being
(58:36):
like actually powerful spiritualfigures, maybe even gods for a
long time. And if he like all the
spirituality stuff that I listento, all the spiritual physics
stuff, they say that yeah, cats are, are kind of perfect
creatures. And they, they're directly in
tune with the, the actual life flow of the morphic field of
(58:58):
infinite potential that we really are.
And they know exactly what they are and they, and they have no
desire to be anything else, which is kind of key because lot
of the rest of us go crazy because we want to be something
else. You know, like, if only I could
be like that or if only I could do that.
But cats are very, very accepting of who and what they
(59:19):
are. They're totally in touch with
larger psychic forces and they're masters of meditation
because they spend about 85% of their lives asleep.
They say that when a cat is purring, that's actually a form
of meditation. They also say that the cats can
(59:40):
see spirits. And I'm sure everybody's seen
had dogs too. I'm sure everybody's seen like
your cat or your dog just suddenly look over like he saw
something and he and he, he's staring right at it.
And you look, you know, into that space and there's nothing
there. Everybody's seen that.
It was a you've seen that with sugar and stuff, right?
(01:00:01):
Yeah. Yeah, that so he, They say cats
can see spirits. They know, they also know that
they're only here for it's temporary and they know they're
going to be gone soon. And they, they also say that,
yeah, that they understand that we reincarnate.
That's, that's like all the buzzon cats.
And so, yeah, at different timesin human history, cats have been
(01:00:22):
worshipped as gods and and, you know, highly revered.
So they're definitely fascinating creatures, but they
will shred you drapes and pee onyour towels.
So I'm not sure what that has todo with like, how enlightened
they are. Speaking of which, how sugar
(01:00:44):
man. Sugar the dog is good.
Yeah. Yeah, she's, she's living it up.
She's doing fine. She's on a couple meds.
But you know, that's old age. She's been around for 15 years.
Wow. So yeah, is she laying there
(01:01:05):
next to Jen being a good dog and, you know, keeping her
company and everything? She was.
When I left, she came outside onthe patio.
Hey, how is it up here? We we had a nothing short of a
deluge the last last night like it was a heavy rain.
Well, all day yesterday, all dayyesterday it rained.
(01:01:26):
Did it rain up there too? Yeah, that's what it was Friday.
That's how I got sick. I was working out in the rain,
in that rain, meeting inspectorsand on job sites and stuff like
that. So I got that's how I got sick.
That's what got me sick. So going around in the cold and
stuff. Yeah.
(01:01:48):
Well, we add up here. We, you know, we I live in the
desert. So they rain is like a godsend.
So we're very happy for it. But it's certainly cold and dark
and wet and and we have like a baby pool in the backyard for
for our sun and and it's like half filled from all the rain
(01:02:09):
that fell. So it was a lot of rain, yeah.
But, and so you got, you got thesame thing that that Creek down
in the desert you guys go to is probably full of water.
Yeah, I know. I was thinking I prob we're
probably, I'm probably gonna take him out there to go check
it out 'cause I was thinking theriver will be raging now from,
(01:02:33):
from the rains last night. I think that's what we're going
to do today. But we got to be careful out
there and it's, it's cold, it's,it's only going to be 50° out
there. So he can't really play in the
water like he normally likes to do.
But I think if I think we'll bundle up though, and maybe go
take a look at it, they're just to also it it, it's a little bit
(01:02:54):
dangerous because there's flash flood warnings all over the
place. And that, that little Creek that
we go to is definitely a place where a flash flood could
quickly happen. So but I do want to go look at
it. Yeah, 'cause I bet the river's
like totally full right now. We'll just.
Hello. Is it still raining?
(01:03:17):
Oh no, You know, it was supposedto continue raining through
today, but the forecast changed and it says 50% chance of rain.
And where I live in the desert, if they say 50% chance of rain,
that means it's not going to rain.
So it might be all over. But I thought, you know, like
yesterday he was with his mom and, and you know, so they were
(01:03:39):
just in her place. And, and then, you know, he gets
bored just being in the house, so he goes stir crazy like
everybody. So she'll just take him out like
yesterday. Normally she would like take him
shopping or something, but yesterday it was so raining,
rainy and cold and stuff. She just drove him around for a
while in the car, but he was so happy just to get out for a
(01:04:00):
little bit because he's been laying there being sick and
stuff. So I was thinking, you know,
Sunday scenic drive, like maybe we should drive, we'll drive out
there and take a look at it and stuff.
But we're we'll avoid like actually, you know, going down
to the shoreline and all that because it's too cold for him to
get wet today, you know, and he's just, he's just getting
over the flu and and me too. So but yeah, just I'm glad you
(01:04:24):
brought that up. That was the first thing that
popped to my mind too. Like I bet that river is raging
out in the desert right now thatthat might be really cool to
see. What are you doing?
How, what are you? How are you guys surviving being
at home like sick and stuff? I'm.
Going to probably go back to rest after this.
Yeah. Yeah.
Even doing this is no I got to take the dogs for a walk and
(01:04:48):
then I feel pretty, pretty exhausted right now actually.
Don't get this flu. That's my best advice to.
You don't get this flu, man Flu if you're a man.
Extra protection. Yeah, try to get the girl flu
where you like, build a ballroomon the White House while you're
(01:05:09):
sick. Get the girl fruit flu.
That one's a lot easier on you. Yeah.
Don't get the girl flu. Do laundry.
They can take care of the kids. Yeah.
They can care for you because you're sick with the man flu,
which is more serious than the girl flu.
Yeah. So whatever you whatever you do,
(01:05:29):
man, do not get the man flu. Yeah, yeah, I definitely avoid
that. Also, start treating treating
old people with respect and listen to what they say.
And meanwhile, we'll get that whole Logan's Run thing set up
for the next generation. Two Men with a Mic is recorded
(01:05:50):
at close on a Hanger Studios. You can reach the guys at the
number Two Men with the mic@gmail.com.
Rock'n'roll memories drive when we were wild and high high
(01:06:13):
school days were tough, but all we had enough blasting tunes.
Rock was roughly dance. We laughed, we laughed.
Tell the stories laid on right underneath your city lives.
Rock ruled our every night memories echo wet goes off the
(01:06:35):
fight. The stage was our domain.
Teenage hurricane, no glory without the pain.
But we did it all again. And posters on the wall dreamed
(01:06:56):
so light they stood tall, they stand some sunshine.
Like all. We were kings before the fall.
And so is lit up right underneath your city lives.
Rock rolled our every night memories echo.
Echoes are good fight. The stage was our domain, a
(01:07:38):
teenage hurricane, no glory without the pain, but we did all
again. Fan posters on the wall.
Dreams felt like they stood tall.
Famous fans home, sunset and tall.
We were kings before the fall, telling stories laid off right
(01:08:02):
underneath your city. LifeLock ruled our every night
memories.
Good morning. Good afternoon.
Good evening. Whenever you are welcome to two
men with a mic. Well, welcome back.
Hey, it's been a while. Yeah, we're alive.
So we were. We were.
We were kind of mean. We left everybody on a
cliffhanger. Our last episode, Jen was going
(00:23):
in for brain surgery. And then we missed a couple
weeks. So to let everybody know that
the worst did not happen. Jen is OK.
She did have some complications in the hospital and had to stay.
Sorry, losing my voice. Had to stay a little longer than
(00:46):
we planned. And she's very sore.
They put a alien in her skull. So what?
What kind of alien? I don't know.
I think it's grey alien. It's hard to tell.
Oh, those are cybernetic organisms, do you?
Yes, yes, I know. And so she's got that in and
(01:12):
it's been a slow, slow recovery.That was about two weeks ago.
Yeah, she is. She is generally OK, but she is
just really down for the count and she's making a slow and
steady recovery. So, you know, I thought it was
kind of rude. We were like, yeah, Jen's going
into brain surgery, see y'all next week.
(01:34):
And then we didn't come on the air for two weeks.
But that was actually because wegot Mike and I got sick, so.
Yeah, I so. Yeah, Mike got the man flu.
That was a funny video that you sent dude.
(01:56):
Yeah, and then apparently I got the man flu.
Yeah. And so, you know, it's, it's
funny, people just don't understand.
So correct me if I'm wrong, Mike, you, you your and your and
your ex both got the man flu, right?
And. No, it was actually my my son
got it first. Oh, your son.
(02:17):
Yeah, actually my my ex must have had an immunity for it
because she didn't get it. Oh yeah, first my son got it and
then I got it from him. Oh, I thought she got it too,
but. Yeah, she must.
Yeah. I don't know how we it's it's
probably the worst bio weapon the government has released yet.
(02:40):
OK, I was waiting for a laugh there brother.
Sorry brother. No, I don't know what it was
that was I'm. I'm yeah, it's definitely a
weapon to thin to to thin the men down, to make the men weak.
Yeah. It doesn't seem to affect women,
(03:00):
Yeah. Yeah, they probably just wanted
to wipe out the the man and leftthe women behind so they could
cook for them and clean and stuff.
Yeah. Every joke I've tried to make
this morning is falling flat. No, I will say I don't know what
it was and, and my son got it and it wiped him out and then I
(03:23):
got it and it's, I think it's been like almost three weeks now
and it's the worst cold flu I, Iever had.
Like I, I can't even, I, well, Italked to it.
It didn't end up being my timetable, but a nurse was
talking to people at Kaiser, youknow, doctors and nurses and
trying to get medicine and stuffand, and they just told me it's
(03:46):
a really awful flu season. And there's a totally
particularly nasty flu bug goingaround and a nurse who had it
said her timetable was basically5 days of solid suffering and
then about 8 days of lingering symptoms.
So I think I've gone longer thanthat.
But I can tell you, like the first week, I, I, I've just
(04:09):
never, I, I was bedridden. I, I and I couldn't do anything.
It was really awful. But I and I did my best, though,
to stay away from my ex because I didn't want her to get it.
And but it I yeah, anyway, it was awful.
So what's how? How is yours going?
Well, I don't know, you know, it's it's just been really
(04:34):
tough. Don't I haven't had any of the
nausea or any of that stuff. Just mine is just head cold and
fatigue and you know, runny nose.
And then I take Dayquil and Nyquil and.
Oh yeah. That stuff kind of helps, but it
doesn't really help. I hate that stuff actually.
I feel like it. Makes me feel sicker.
(04:56):
Yeah, that's exactly what I said.
Yeah. Last night I was like, I don't
know if this stuff's making it better or worse.
I always felt like people do thecosts are, but I always felt
like I hate it because yeah, it makes me feel sicker so but some
people like dose on that stuff and swear by it.
But for me, I was like, Nah, this is like I took a spoonful
of more disease or something, you know, full of disease helps
(05:23):
the problem compound. No, it's been awful.
I'm so sorry to hear that you have it.
I, I, I still have it, although I, I'm, I can do stuff now and
I'm going around and I was told that if, as long as you don't
have a fever, you're not contagious, but it's a, it's a
(05:44):
nasty damn flu, dude. Yeah, well, that's why they call
it man flu, you know 'cause. That was so funny though, 'cause
this flu worked me over and thatand just concerned about other
things and, you know, things happening in the world and all
that. It just totally worked me over.
(06:05):
And so I confessed like I becamea big baby.
Like I was like. I'm alone and I'm sick and
nobody loves me, nobody cares. And like, I, I got, I, I had
like an emotional whirlwind because I was like, so broken
down by, by this flu. Yeah, yeah.
(06:28):
But so Mitch sent this video. It's pretty funny because I, I
was dead and, and I, and I was just like crying for help and
stuff. And Mitch sent, Mitch sent this
video to me and, and it was likethis big muscley macho guy.
And he's, and he's talking abouthow he has the man flu.
And so he's, he's like, well, you know, I've been really sick
(06:50):
all this week and I've got the man flu, you know, so all I
could do was kind of like lay onthe couch and go and he goes.
But you know, that. And then my wife, like, I don't
know, she, she, she got the flu too, but then she went out and
like put a new engine in the carand like built a tower on her
(07:10):
house. And so, you know, while I was on
the couch going help me, help me, help me.
But but so so my wife that she must not have gotten the the
same flu because she also like repaved the whole street in
front of our house while she hadit.
So she must have had the girl flu, right?
Like, like the reason I'm layingon the couch crying like a baby
(07:32):
because I'm about to die. That's the man flu.
So but the fact that she went out and ran for office and
became president of Australia while she was sick with this
means that must be the girl flu.Like it's a longer flu.
Yeah, I, I told Chuck yesterday.I was like, I was like, yeah, I
(07:53):
got the, you know, my, well, mom's back in the hospital.
So I was talking to him and I was like, yeah, I can't, I can't
make it over there. I got this man flu.
I'm not doing very well. I said.
And then I said, well, and Jim just had brain surgery, but
she's all good. Oh God.
(08:15):
Excuse me, God. That's funny.
We're not doing very well with this man.
Flu. We just it, it kicks our ass,
man. It did dude.
I, I honestly I'm amazed at it. It it's the sickest I've ever
been in my whole life and it wasfor me it was it's been like 2
solid weeks of suffering and nowI think I'm into the lingering
(08:37):
symptoms but I'm still not rightso.
How's the G man? Is he all better?
He's still got lingering symptoms too, but I'll tell you
like, like maybe it was last weekend.
I, I took him out, you know, to like a wilderness place and he
(08:57):
was very happy to be there because he'd only been at home
sick, you know, and, and he goesstir crazy in your house.
So I, I wanted to get him out someplace beautiful.
And, and, and we did. But when we got back, we have a
hammock in the backyard. And all you wanted to do after
our our excursion to the wilderness was to climb into the
(09:17):
hammock. And dude, he laid in that
hammock with me just gently rocking him for six hours
straight. Like, yeah, like normally he
would. Hey, Kitty, don't do that.
My cat's destroying the drapes. That's that's that's why we love
them, because they destroy the drapes and pee on the towels.
(09:40):
Yeah. Anyway, no.
Yeah, he's doing a lot better. I'm doing a lot better.
But it we were both just flooredby this thing.
Hey, don't do that, all right? My father is being an asshole.
He just shredded the drapes here.
Why don't you go outside? Isn't it raining there?
(10:02):
Yeah, actually it's not. He's being I.
Have a cat in the hell? I have an asshole cat.
He's definitely an asshole. Sorry, I should Oh wait, do we
have AG rated chef? I love, I love him, but but
yeah, he's he's a a total brat. Anyway, yeah, he's been going
(10:25):
crazy though, because normally he's an outside cat and he
hasn't been able to go outside because it's been raining cats
and dogs. But where did that expression
come from? It's.
Green. I don't know.
But so he's kind of going crazy because he just wants to be
outside, but he hasn't been ableto.
And I don't know what he was doing.
(10:45):
Basically, he just wants attention 24/7.
And the minute I don't do that, then he destroys stuff.
So yeah, he's like a kid. I love him.
I love him though. But he's totally, he's totally a
pill dude. Yeah.
So that's been our adventure forthe last couple of weeks.
(11:08):
That's where we've been. Yeah, 5.
But now it's it's part Cyborg and.
Well, but so in reality, what did they do?
They, they did put a mechanical device in her brain, right?
Well, on the surface of her skull, Yeah, between the skin
and the skull. And then they drill the hole,
yeah. And put like a shop vac tube
(11:32):
down into the brain somewhere. And then the other, yeah, you
know, like a vacuum or something, a port.
Yeah. And then they put the they ran
the other end behind her ear andthen down into her abdomen where
the fluid drains. And then in between it is that
(11:54):
machine that is like a pressure valve, so that when the pressure
gets over a certain number then it releases fluid so.
Oh my God, which one is the hot water and which one is the cold
water? Absolutely.
(12:15):
That's funny. I'm sorry, man.
I. Finally I said a funny joke.
God. Yes, I know.
I've been. Having a bad set today.
No, that was a good one. All right, guys.
Sorry, not sorry guys for this interruption, but guess what?
Today is Tuesday rants with Amber.
(12:42):
Welcome back to the studio, everyone.
Wow, thank you. Thank you.
I'm happy to be here too. What how I knew you guys were
here for me. Hey everyone and happy Tuesday.
I hope you guys are all having an amazing day and an amazing
week so far. And happy November.
(13:04):
We are in another one of my favorite months.
I really just think I love all of the Burr months.
Like you can't go wrong with anyof them.
And I know those are the last three letters of my name as
well, so maybe that has something to do with it.
But they're just the best holidays at the end of the year.
(13:24):
And I'm just so excited because Thanksgiving is coming up soon.
And as you guys know, Thanksgiving is my favorite
holiday. But I want to rewind and talk a
little bit about my birthday. I had the best birthday and
birthday week ever. It was so much fun.
(13:44):
My sister came into town into New York and she visited me for
a whole week and she planned a whole bunch of activities and
fun things for us to do. We did a lot of stuff off of my
bucket list on my actual birthday.
We got to go on a picnic in Central Park and the leaves are
(14:05):
just starting to turn like thoseorangey yellow colors.
So it was absolutely beautiful. And we stopped in at this really
cool place called Charcuterie. And basically it's like a Subway
but for charcuterie boards. And they will put anything you
want on your board and you can choose from all the different
(14:25):
meats and cheeses and nuts and olives, like all the things.
It's really cool and I highly recommend if you're ever in the
city. And that was like so fun.
We also did a lot of like birthday shopping and I got a
lot of my free birthday items, which I always love getting.
And then the next day was so much fun as well.
(14:48):
We got to go to the Mamma Mia Broadway show, which has always
been my dream to do Mamma Mia ismy favorite movie and so getting
to see it on Broadway was so much fun.
We also went to the New York Transit Museum, which was really
cool and got to see all of the old subway cars that they used
to have and even like the old ads that used to be in the
(15:10):
subway cars was really cool and interesting.
So that was really fun. I also had class that day, so it
was a little bit more of a chillday.
We walked around the city and wetried a bunch of different food
restaurants. I took my sister to Stardust
Diner, which she had not been tobefore, and basically it's this
really cool diner kind of in theTimes Square area, Broadway
(15:33):
area, and they have singing waiters and waitresses, and it's
amazing. So they do like all of these
Broadway songs and they serve you your food and it's so much
fun. And then the next day was Friday
and we got to go ice skating at Rockefeller, which was so much
(15:54):
fun. And we also got dessert from a
place right by Rockefeller. I think it's pronounced like
glaze, like GLACEI don't know ifit's glossy or glaze, but it's
so good. They're known for doing like
their marshmallow charred hot chocolate rims and they don't
(16:14):
have that going on right now because it was still fall.
I mean they had a couple things like that, but like they're that
specific drink doesn't come in till like mid November for
Christmas. So we got the pumpkin like
cookie with ice cream. It was so good, so good
definitely not overhyped like this place is talked about a lot
(16:35):
on the Internet and it is not overhyped.
I promise you it's so good and we just had so much fun and we
also got to go see the movie regretting You, which was super
good. I've been wanting to see that
movie as soon as I saw the trailer come out and I
absolutely loved it. I think everybody should go and
(16:57):
watch it. It was, I literally ride, but
like also good tears to like, you know, happy and sad.
There is like a mix. And then also we went to a
bookstore called Albertine, and it's really cool because it's in
the French embassy and yeah, they have books in French and
(17:20):
they have books in English. And it was just really cool
because on the ceiling they havelike all the constellations.
So it was super pretty. And we also got to do one of my
absolute dreams, which was in Central Park.
You can sail model boats just like they do in Stuart Little.
And that was like amazing. I've always wanted to do that.
(17:41):
Definitely bucket list for sure.And then the next day was
Saturday. We started off by going to
Breakfast at Tiffany's. So the Tiffany Jewelry store,
they actually have a cafe at thevery top called Blue Box Cafe.
And it like was created after the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's
(18:01):
with Audrey Hepburn. And it is such an amazing little
cafe restaurant. You definitely need a
reservation to go. And they had like this whole tea
setup situation that we did and it was just so good.
I've always wanted to do that. I love that movie so much.
And then something I did not know about, which my sister
found is there's a Museum of dogs in New York City.
(18:25):
And how I did not know about it,I don't know.
But it was so cool. And there was like hardly
anybody there. So sucks for all the people who
weren't there because this placeis amazing and you guys should
go check it out when you're in New York.
And it was just so cool. There's tons of artwork and
paintings and sculptures and like drawings and like just all
(18:45):
these things. It's all dog.
It's so cool. And then, and we also got to go
in the fall, they do a pumpkin arch on Pier 17.
And so it's a really cute picture spot.
And we also just had a lot of great food that day.
And it was just such a fun, nicekind of chill day.
And then Sunday we got brunch ata place called Chateau La Wolf
(19:08):
in Queens, which was really good.
We did a lot of dog stuff, obviously, because dogs are my
thing. So I loved it.
And then we also went to this thrift store called Thrift and
they have like stuff that you can thrift, but they also have
like a charm bracelet making area.
And what's really cool about this thrift store is that all
(19:31):
the stuff that you buy, like thecharm bracelet stuff, like
actual items that you thrift, all the proceeds go towards type
1 diabetes research and awareness.
And I just think that's so amazing.
And like the owner, she also hastype 1 diabetes, so it's just
like really sweet that she's doing that.
And we made charm bracelets and it was so much fun.
(19:53):
We went with a fall theme for our bracelets, so they were like
very spooky vibes. And then we also went to a
pumpkin patch. That was on a rooftop, which was
so cool. It was very different than like
the pumpkin patches that are in California, but I loved it.
It was so much fun and there is so many pumpkins everywhere.
(20:14):
And we also rode the Roosevelt Island tram, which is really
cool. It's like in the air.
It's kind of like picture like aski tram thing that they do.
It's similar to that. It was really fun and we also
went to a bookstore called SweetPickle Books.
So if you like books and you like Pickles, this is the place
(20:35):
for you because they sell both. It was awesome.
And then on Monday, which was our last day together because my
sister had her flight Tuesday morning, we grabbed bagels, of
course in the morning. And then we also went to this
coffee shop called Paducah Bakery and they are known for in
(20:55):
the fall time doing ghosts on the sides of the coffee cup.
So it's more like a picture thing.
But I also wanted to try their coffee.
Their coffee was mid. It was OK, but it was definitely
worth getting the picture for sure.
And then we also went to Coney Island and we had lunch there
and then in the evening we had aTaylor Swift night at a bar
(21:18):
called Joyface. And it was so much fun.
I mean everybody was all dressedup and decked out and it was
just so great. And they're playing all of the
music, a lot of new songs from her new album.
And there was like drinks that were named after her.
We got some non alcoholic drinksthat were really good and it was
(21:39):
just so much fun. I was really sad.
This was my first birthday, likenot being home so that was
really hard. But it was great, like getting
to video call with everybody andmy family sent me a birthday
package that I really loved. And it was just a really great
time. And I had a really amazing
birthday. So thank you everybody for all
(21:59):
the birthday wishes and calls and texts and everything.
I love you guys so much. And then also I just want to
give a shout out to my mom. She just had her brain surgery
and she is now home recovering. And I just want to say she is
absolutely amazing and just so brave and just such a trooper.
(22:22):
And I'm so proud of her and, andI hope that her recovery goes
very smoothly and that she's able to rest and just be out of
pain soon. So keep her in your thoughts and
prayers. But I will be seeing you guys
next week. Bye.
Thank you so much for listening to your favorite ranter today.
(22:44):
Yes, yes, I love that energy. Now, if you guys need to reach
out to us at all for anything, even psychiatric help, you can
reach us at the number two Men with a Mic.
Yeah, we should probably changethat.com.

Thanks, guys. Bye.
To recap, she had to like totally shave her head and her
hair is growing back a little bit now.
And but I mean, she's got the pain of just dealing with the
(23:27):
procedure is still there. You know, she doesn't feel good.
She's fatigued. And you know, it just takes a
long time to recover. There were two surgeons in the
procedure. So yeah, it wasn't, it didn't
take them very long. It was like 3 hours.
(23:48):
And then what was weird was, well, then we, so we finally got
to see her like at like hour 5, right?
And we go back to the recovery room and, and they're like,
well, there's no bed. She's probably going to stay in
here. And, you know, we like, we got
her up to, you know, she's like,oh, I got to go to the bathroom.
So her sister was there. Denise, Thank you, Denise, for
(24:11):
coming up here and helping. And so she, Denise walked her to
the bathroom, which was, you know, 50 steps.
So she, you know, this is like after four hours of surgery.
I mean, yeah, 4 hours after surgery.
So, you know, she's up, she takes a walk, she goes to the
bathroom, she comes back, you know, so we're, we're like, OK,
(24:33):
you know, I mean, overall she's doing pretty good.
You know, she's asked. We got her some beef broth
because she hadn't been able to eat, you know, and stuff because
of the surgery. Yeah.
So then they finally go, oh, youknow what?
We were going to keep her hair in recovery all night, but a
room opened up, so we're going to transport her upstairs.
So we go upstairs to her room, we get her all settled, we hang
(24:56):
out. It's like midnight now, right?
So we're like, OK, you know, we're going to take off and then
we'll come back in the morning because, you know, we got to go
shower and sleep and and then we'll come back and she's like,
OK, you know, I'll see you guys in the morning and all that.
So the next morning comes aroundand we walk into her hospital
(25:20):
room. You know, we were expecting,
basically we were expecting her to, you know, be up and up and,
and going and, and, you know, basically we were supposed to be
discharged. So we were expecting to be
discharged in a couple hours, right?
That was the way based on the day before and all that.
Anyway, we walk into the room and and it was probably one of
(25:42):
the scariest reality checks I'vehad in a long time.
They had like 3 nurses standing around her bed.
She was wearing one of those bags on her face, those oxygen
bags. It's not not the cannula oxygen
tube, but not just the mask, butthe mask with the bag.
(26:03):
She looked completely out of it and all this stuff like that.
And, and I walked in and the first thing when I saw it, I was
all like, what happened? And, you know, the, the nurses
turned to us and, and they were like, well, she's right now.
She's OK. You just need to know that right
(26:24):
now she's OK. Well, yeah, we're like, what do
you mean she's OK? Because the hospital, nobody
called us. Nobody said anything.
So they said, well, approximately 2 hours ago or
whatever, the nurse was in here and she had a grand Mal seizure,
(26:45):
which is a really, the really bad seizure where you, where you
shake and, and all that. They said we've already taken
her down to, you know, get, you know, CT scans and, and all of
that. And we're like, wait, what,
what's, you know, we were just so confused.
And that seizure, they don't really know.
(27:08):
They hooked her back up about a year or two ago.
I don't know which episode we talked about it, but oh,
something, there's one of our episodes, something in a seizure
or something like that. There's a episode about Jim
being checked out for seizures, but they basically did the same
thing. They hook up like 20 or 30 leads
(27:28):
on the brain and then they put acamera on her and they monitor
her and all this. Anyways, we had to do all that
again for 24 hours, but the seizure just completely knocks
you out physically. So Jen was in and out of
consciousness for probably 24 hours.
(27:52):
So in other words, she would wake up and kind of open her
eyes or open one eye and then she would kind of look at you
for a minute, half a smile and then just back out.
And, and it was like she couldn't.
It was like she was fighting to to stay alive or awake or
(28:12):
whatever. So it was really scary.
And it was just completely out of nowhere.
Like I said, we were walking in.We were just like, OK, yeah, you
know, we'll take her home and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
and all that. And, and you walk into that and
it was it was a gut punch. It's too great.
(28:37):
Do that. Yeah.
And so she she basically after it, she was there till Friday.
So she was supposed to come homeWednesday and she came home
Friday. So yeah, it it was, it was
(29:03):
scary. She has no recollection of the
first couple days after surgery.Wow, probably a good thing, huh?
Yeah, but I mean, she doesn't remember the recovery room where
she was feeling fine and had braoff and walked to the bathroom.
Excuse me, I'm sorry. She doesn't.
(29:23):
She doesn't remember any of that.
So wow, yeah, it's a it it, you know, she's still struggling
with some of the after effects of that seizure.
She ended up biting her lip really bad.
(29:45):
So her lip still doesn't have fillings because she severed the
nerves. Oh no.
And, you know, she just, it's a very, it's very slow.
Having that seizure really set her back physically.
So yeah, it's been a very, very tough couple of weeks.
(30:08):
I mean, obviously, you know, Mike and I getting the flu is
like nothing compared to what she went through.
But, you know, it's, it's just been a really rough couple of
weeks. And, you know, she is making
progress now. She's, you know, slowly.
(30:30):
It's, it's, and I, I think in, Idon't know, maybe that's because
of our ages, you know, like you're talking about, you know,
it's, it's like the older you get, the harder it is to feel
better. It's amazing, you know?
Yeah, I, I hate to do that 'cause as, as you know, I, you
(30:51):
know, I think we're creating reality with our.
Thoughts. But but it as a general
statement, it is kind of safe tosay I think that, yeah, you
don't bounce back as MU as quickly or as you do when you're
young when you get these things or when you go through these
things like you just don't heal as quickly.
It's weird. I I would not recommend old age
(31:12):
to anybody. Yeah.
Really. Yeah, definitely avoid old age
if at all possible. Yeah, if you can do that.
I mean, there's a reason that the CIA killed Jim Morrison and
Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix atage 27.
And really, it was the merciful thing.
They just didn't want them to get old and get a flu that you
(31:34):
never get over. Yeah, there you go.
That's what it was. It was a mercy killing.
It's about, you know, that that or it's the 27 club of the rock
stars. You know, like Kurt Cobain
killed himself when he was 27 and then supposedly Jim Morrison
OD when he was 27. Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin.
(31:55):
And who was the other 10? Jimi Hendrix, right?
Supposedly, but, but it created like this kind of like darkly,
poetically romantic sort of concept, like the idea of living
fast and dying young and I don'tknow, like if you were all
wrapped up in, in rock'n'roll and, and, and the life and all
(32:17):
that stuff. It was like that was the age
that you're supposed to, to, to dis disappear from the planet,
you know? Do you remember that?
Like the 27? Club.
Yeah, well, they made a whole movie about it with.
Yeah, it's called Logan's Run. Oh, right, right, yeah, that's
that's a better example where with in that movie, I think they
(32:40):
they they held their 30 and thenyeah, what what I forgot what
happens? What do they do They.
Population control. They just all go die.
In something, yeah, I would, I would say I, I, I would say
like, you should go to the Logan's Run place at about 30
(33:01):
and trust me, you won't be missing anything.
But like old age, you know, where you get sick and well, and
and also you'll be you'll be able to skip ageism where when
you're old, nobody wants to hearanything you have to say.
You'll be able to like. What else will they be spared?
(33:21):
From you won't need your Social Security.
Yep, you won't need any of that.You don't have to worry about
retirement anymore. You can just party till you drop
when you're 30. And then cuz everything after
that is just like aches and pains and misery and sadness and
betrayal and and then you kind of turn into a a troll and then
you die. Yeah.
(33:43):
Pretty much right. Yeah.
There was a show also that sort of dealt with population
control, and the way they did itwas they had ATM machines and
money was free. But the more money you drew,
then the more time withdrew to buy food and groceries, then the
(34:04):
more times your name was submitted into a lottery.
And if you're drawn for the lottery, then you're part of the
group that gets executed. Oh, OK.
So everything was really cheap. They kept the price of groceries
down. OK.
And they turned everybody in theSoylent green.
(34:27):
Yep. Did you ever see that movie?
Which one? Actually, I've never seen it.
It's a Charlton Charlton Heston movie and it and it's supposed
to be a a science fiction classic, but I believe the plot
of the movie again to deal with population control and and maybe
famine is that they they they, Idon't know if they kill people
(34:50):
at a certain age, but they startgiving the peasants something
called Soylent green, like as a food for them to eat, I think.
But then the big reveal in the movie is it turns out that
Soylent Soylent green is made from human beings.
So like. Yeah, something like that.
(35:10):
Did you OK? Yeah.
And Charles Heston got to. Deal with?
Yeah, I vaguely remember something about that.
Yeah, like Charles Neston on thebeach with the the Statue of
Liberty buried in the sand. No, that's like, that's no, I
know, but he always gets to do his Charles Neston yell.
So. But at the end, so at the ending
of Planet of the Apes, Charlton Heston's there with the the
(35:31):
buried Statue of Liberty and he's like you maniacs, you
really did it. Which, by the way, could be
applicable to our current world situation.
Yeah. But then at the end of finally
agreeing, he gets weeks to go. So I me a scream.
It's people Charlton always gets.
(35:53):
To yell. You always get the screaming
ending. Yeah, he gets this.
Screaming it, yeah. Anyway, probably all both those
movies will come true, but what?What, what official age do you
think you would say? Cut it off?
Because after that it's just oldage and misery.
I don't know. It's, I don't know.
(36:16):
I don't know, because it's hard to say because I think that for
everybody it's different. That's the thing.
That's that's why you can't do that.
I think that, that, you know, it's, I mean, yeah, we're, we're
whining and complaining now, butI feel like we both have stuff
to contribute, you know, I said we still have stuff to
(36:40):
contribute, you know, and, and all that.
No, we don't. What are?
What are we? Got a son?
To raise. Oh, yeah.
Well, yeah, that's, yeah, that'strue.
I'm. I'm my son is a gift to the
world. So that's that's why I'm still
here. And he's only, what, 7?
Yeah, he's 7. So I don't know.
(37:02):
I I went through it. Oh, yeah.
OK. So I'm sorry.
Keep talking over the copy of the book.
I was just going to say you onlyget like a third of the way
through it. Yeah, no, my son is a delight
and he's my mission and he's my purpose and and I I'm grateful
to have him. I I did go through like a, a
swirl. Well, dude, I mean, come on.
(37:23):
We every every night on the news, it's like the the Doomsday
clock. The scientists say the Doomsday
Clock is only, you know, 30 seconds to.
Have you heard of the Doomsday clock that they show and stuff?
Yeah, I mean, that's been aroundforever.
Yeah, but so, so there's been like this thing in the air, like
we're we're going to have a nuclear war and we're all going
(37:45):
to die soon. Wait a minute.
Now I'm doing like classic. I forgot what I was going to
say. What did you say right before
that? We were talking about you're
only a third of the way through raising your kid, so you have
something to give back. Yeah, about old age and at what
age We think you know it. People should be terminated.
And I said you can't do it like that because, you know,
(38:09):
everyone's different. Oh.
Right, right. Yeah, It's hard to.
It's hard to pick an age when itsucks.
I don't know how I went from that to the Doomsday Clock,
except that perhaps it's on the back burner in my mind since
every night on the news they saywe're about to die in World War
Three, which is technically, I guess World War Four or World
(38:30):
War 5. Yeah.
I don't know when. When did this really start to
suck as an old guy? I I was watching.
I tried, I think it's the secondtime I tried to watch it, but
it's just totally unfunny. But there's, you know, that guy.
He does. He's the creator of the Family
Guy cartoon on on TV. Seth something and.
(38:50):
I love him, but I don't know him.
Yeah. He did that Ted movie with Mark
Wahlberg where the the teddy bears alive and very foul
mouthed. Yeah, I can't stand that.
Oh, you don't like him Or or youdidn't like that movie?
No. Really, I the first one I
laughed at the first one I thought was funny.
(39:11):
The second one was like super unfunny.
But anyway, he, that guy made a,it's supposed to be a comedy
Western. Yeah.
And I think it's called something like A Million Ways to
Die in the West or something. And so I, I tried to watch it
because I, I just wanted, I was searching for a laugh.
I thought maybe there was a chance that I could, that could
make me laugh. And it was just like instantly
(39:32):
awful and unfunny. But one of the things they said
was I only watched about 10 minutes of it and then I
couldn't take it anymore becauseit really, really was not funny.
But there's a scene where like the Seth, the cowboy is like
talking to his girlfriend and his girlfriend's like breaking
up with him. And she goes, well, you know,
(39:53):
the, the average age that peopledie here in the Old West is 35.
So I got to, I got to find a better man than you before I
die, you know, kind of thing. But you'd imagine that like in
in the cowboy days, you know, and stuff like.
Like, Oh yeah, 35 was like old age.
Yeah, weird, huh? But that might be merciful.
(40:15):
I'm. I'm saying like you know,
everything after 35 gets pretty rash.
Yeah. The other thing that happens
after that age, as you get older, is you realize you've
been brainwashed and you're no longer the focus of the
brainwashing because now you're old and useless.
But before, like in our generation, you know, all the
(40:37):
TV, all the media, all the movies that it was targeted at
us while they socially engineered a new generation.
So, so for when you're young, you're like the babies of the
technocracy and they've got to brainwash you as quickly as
possible. So they're catering to you.
Like everything is movies are made for you and, and, and it's
(40:59):
all catering to you. But then you reach a certain age
and they're like, well, they're old and useless now.
Now we have to concentrate on the next generation coming up
and brainwash them as quickly aspossible.
And so then all the movies and TV and radio and music is
totally targeted at the youth. But you're, you're, you're an
old man kind of looking around going, wait a minute, all this
(41:22):
stuff used to be for me. And then you also notice that
like all the brainwashing they're targeting the use with
is just basically a a little tweak on the same way that they
brainwashed you. And so your your kid comes
running in and and and he's like, oh, you got to watch this
movie because it's got like a spaceship in it.
And they and then they travel through time.
(41:44):
But now you're an old man and you're like, I already saw that,
you know, they made that movie like 30 years ago in my
generation, you know, but what, what see like as you get old
and, and you see the younger generation being brainwashed is
kind of been there, done that. Like I, I, I remember, you know,
I love the Raiders, the Lost Arkand, and, and the, the, the
(42:05):
first couple Indiana Jones movies.
But my dad would be standing there and he hated them.
And, and I would, I would, I asked him why?
And he goes, because those are movie serials that, and I used
to watch those when I was a kid.And they're just ripping that
off and doing it again. So when when you reach like
middle age, you'll realize that you're no longer the focus of
(42:25):
interest for anything. And it's the use that the
government and the media and stuff is interested in.
And they're basically just retelling the same story again.
So there's nothing new for an old man to watch because they're
just telling the same story again to the kids in a slightly
different way, you know? And so like all entertainment
dries up because like, for instance, I, I, I watched this
(42:48):
new running man thing. And Oh yeah, I wanted to see
that, even though it's a remake.Yeah, you might like it did.
But for me it was. It was.
I thought it was just really tired and old and, and boring
and, and you've seen all those things before and there's
nothing fresh or clever in it. And so I was, I was completely
(43:10):
underwhelmed by that movie. But I suddenly realized that
like all the kids in the next generation coming up, like they,
they never saw that stuff before.
They didn't, they didn't even see the original running man,
you know, And so for them, this new running man, it's all brand
new. But for you and, and I as old
people, it's like, oh, well, we,we've seen that a million times,
(43:33):
you know, But so for, for the youth, though, I think remaking
and, and retreading and, and redoing the same thing that they
did to us, just dressing it up in different clothes.
Like it's all, it's all focused on the anyway.
I all, I'm like, I would give Brenny man a, a thumbs down.
And, but I bet there's a bunch of like young kids who've never
(43:56):
seen that stuff before. It's all new to them.
And so they would love it, you know?
Yeah. So yeah, another thing about the
the the government and the mediastops paying attention to you
and, and when you get old because they don't care anymore,
it's too late for you. It's done.
You're stuck and that's it. The only they care about the
(44:16):
youth. So there will be no more
entertainment for you after the age of 40, I guess.
And then, yeah, illnesses that you don't recover from very
quickly. And in general, a society that
completely disregards everythingyou say, which is very dumb
because the old people know whathappened and, and, and it's now
(44:40):
happening to the next generation.
And if the next generation wouldlisten to us, they would
actually have a a much better ride through this matrix.
But they won't. And that's part of social
engineering. They don't want the young
generation to listen to their elders because if they did, it
would probably be the end of thewhole brainwashing scheme.
(45:00):
But the, the next generation gets gets programmed and, and
then we try to tell them what's going on and they're like, we
don't want to listen to old men and you're a loser because
you're old and get away from us.And, and so they just are
dragged through the same thing again.
And then about 40, they'll wake up, realize what happened, see
(45:21):
that it's happening to their children, and then their
children won't listen to them either.
So yeah, sickness 0. Respect as an old man, nobody
listens to you. What else is wrong with being
old dude? It hurts.
Oh, yeah, it aches. There's nothing good about it,
(45:43):
dude. Actually, I remember years ago I
met this dude who was like a film scholar.
He was like a film professor andyeah, but yeah, he, he had
gotten old and and he was prettywiped out.
God rest his soul. Blessings to him.
But yeah, he he was sitting there, we were having a great
conversation about film and stuff.
And, and he just, he said, listen, don't get old.
(46:07):
I just want to tell you one thing.
He said getting old is not for, you know, getting old is only
for the brave. He literally said that like,
don't get old. What are we going to do about
this dude? I guess we have to, Oh, you know
what? There, there's a, you know, I, I
see all the like news. I guess everybody knows the
(46:30):
mainstream news is just totally fake now.
But I, I watch all kinds of, youknow, what used to be called
alternative news, which is in fact much closer to the truth.
But I watch all this stuff. And so one of the ideas out
there is that in our DNAI think we have something called
telomeres. And so like there are conspiracy
(46:53):
researchers, like running aroundand, and they're basically
saying that our telomeres were deliberately shortened so that
we wouldn't live as long. But if we extended the telomeres
in our DNA, we would actually live like forever.
Although by the time you're 40 and you realize what happened to
you, trust me, you will not wantto live forever.
(47:17):
But have you heard that about like, Oh yeah, well, all we have
to do is extend our telomeres and we don't have to deal with
this. Old age.
I don't I don't watch any of that.
Hey, I'll, I'll. I'll tell you it turned out to
be a hoax though, because I was running Oh, and, and, and, and,
and also it's, it's, it's the usual thing of see, the
(47:37):
government's hiding technology from us and stuff.
And they're going to live forever because they extended
their telomeres. But we, the peasants and the
subjects of these social experiments, we're just going to
die like usual because we can't extend our telomeres.
But so I, I contacted my, my nephew who I, who is studying
genetics at Yale, and actually he told me it wasn't true.
(48:02):
The thing about the telomeres, yeah, because I was like, hey
man, what? I want the government give us
our telomeres, dude. And and so he actually wrote
back to me. So maybe maybe I'll I'll I'll
read this so I can help put an end to like when conspiracy
theory. Do you want to?
Hear it? Or is this like totally boring
(48:23):
for the audience? No, I don't think you know why
not. Let's hear about telomeres.
OK, yeah, 'cause you will hear that from like all the
conspiracy researchers, like, OK, you know, just extend the
telomeres. So I, I wrote to Mackenzie
again, he's at Yale, I think he's in Yale grad school
studying genetics. And he says you really don't
(48:47):
want to extend your telomeres. He says there are whole families
with congenitally long telomeres.
They don't live longer than normal people and there is a
high risk of cancer and many, many recurrent cancers even in
just the same person because their their telomeres have been
extended. And and then he said the
(49:11):
telomeres are short for a reason.
And shorter ones, though associated with age, aren't
necessarily causing aging. They might be causing some
aspects of aging in some tissues, but it's really unclear
if that's true. So what do you think of that?
That was our last chance, man. Dude, we were going to extend
(49:33):
our telomeres and live forever. But Mackenzie says it's a hoax.
Yeah, there you go. Finally someone speaking the.
Truth that that was actually, I was happy to hear that, 'cause
I'm watching like, like I'm trying to think of some of the
names of these. Like there's a guy, Billy
Carson, I think his name is Billy Carson's, running around
(49:54):
and he's like, wait, see the government cut your telomeres
off. And if you don't extend the
telomeres, you, you know, but yeah, I, I checked with a, an
actual scientist or a guy who's studying to be a scientist and
he's like, no, that's silly. It's good to do that with all
that you hear, you know, in the in in in our crumb, deliberately
crumbling world that you know, that's that is one of the
(50:18):
subjects in the running man movie is that it is lightly a
social commentary. But one point that they
absolutely want to make in that movie is that you can't believe
a lot of what you see on TV on the Internet, you know, wherever
because they're lying and and things are being manipulated.
(50:39):
And but there the point, the movie makes a point like see,
because you believed that on TV it, you know, you were, you're
able to feel like you're better than everybody else.
And also, you know, look down onlike people.
I don't know, it's, it's I forgot what the point is.
I mean the point, but the point is like what you see on TV, you
(51:02):
should like investigate for yourself and and it makes the
point. At all and realize it's it's
people acting and and writers take liberties, yeah.
Yeah, so if you see something onTV and, and you're shocked by
it, you know, like a conspiracy theory or whatever, although
there are a lot, most of those conspiracy theories turned out
(51:24):
to be true. I went I, I think everyone
should now. But yeah, you should look into
it for yourself like I did on this telomeres thing, because a
lot of it is hooey. And that that is one of the
points of the Running Man, 'cause in the Running Man, they
keep putting stuff on TV about like how bad the Running Man is
to make people hate him. But it's all lies, you know,
(51:47):
it's, it's just the media inventing lies.
So yeah, one of the points that movie wants to make is that
like, you know, research it for yourself.
Don't just take things at face value, that kind of thing.
So yeah, I'm dead, but how are you going to get out of this old
age thing? The.
I don't know Mom's I I wanted tojump on another subject just.
(52:08):
OK. Just letting you know that mom's
back in the hospital. Oh no.
I haven't been able to go see her 'cause I got this flu and,
you know, I don't want to get her sick.
But yeah, she's, she's back in the hospital.
I don't know if you shout to her.
(52:30):
I did try to reach, you know, I tried to call her like yesterday
or the day before and and then the phone, she didn't answer.
And I I sent her like a little video of my son getting an award
at school, but I didn't I didn't, I didn't hear anything.
So but what? What landed her back and got?
Other infection and stuff, I don't know exactly.
(52:53):
I haven't talked to her. I talked to Chuck.
Uh huh. I've just been kind of staying
away because I got this cold. I'm afraid to give it to her
because it could, you know, it could actually be extremely
dangerous for someone her age. Yeah.
She's already in the hospital with an infection, you know.
Oh my God. But does she have her phone with
(53:14):
her? Like if I.
Called now OK. I will try to reach out to her.
I just did though. I was thinking, yeah, and I
guess she must have been going to the hospital.
Yeah, she went Friday afternoon.Uh huh.
(53:35):
That's see. So is she stable?
And stuff like have you gone to oh, you don't wanna go?
'Cause you don't wanna hear. Yeah.
I can't. I can't go over there with, with
all this. I haven't talked to her.
I tried. I've been talking to Chuck,
obviously. Yeah.
Has Chuck gone over to see her? Yeah.
Yeah, I see her. OK, good.
(53:55):
I'm really sorry to hear that. Yeah.
You're poor mom, dude. She's such a great person.
But yeah, I, well, not to, like,play in morbidly with what we've
been talking about, but, you know, she's a senior citizen and
she's up there. And so I hate to do this because
we create reality with our thoughts.
(54:16):
So I shouldn't. But no, you're.
Yeah. Old age is really hard and you
get sick and and it's harder to get over it.
And if we just converted to the Logan's Run system, I think we'd
be OK. No, no, that's bad.
And I don't want to diminish what's going on with your mom.
But yet again, this has been my worst show for jokes that fell
(54:40):
flat. Wouldn't you agree?
Well, I'm sorry, I'm just, you know, I've got this man flu and,
you know, I'm, I'm pushing through it, trying to do the
show. I just wanted to let everybody
know, 'cause it was, like we said, Jim going to brain surgery
and then we went dark. Yeah, for two weeks.
(55:00):
But it was just between the brain surgery and then Mike
getting sick and all of that because he, Mike got the man
flu. And you know how devastating
that is for men. So yeah, we just, I wish, I wish
we could share that man flu video with the audience because
it really was funny. We're the man flu.
(55:22):
So we're fetching, we're, we're complaining about everything.
But then, yeah, these women get the flu and they just go like
rebuild the Eiffel, Eiffel Towerand stuff.
Yeah, Manners complainers, right?
Yeah, we're just big babies. Yeah.
Oh, Cat, come on, he's attackingthe grapes.
(55:44):
He, oh, he can't. He wanted to come back in.
So now he's shredding the drapesagain, 'cause I'm not pass back
outside. And then he'll put two and two
together. Yeah, I might have to start
doing that 'cause he's totally out of control.
But you know. Hey, that audience, send send
prayers and blessings for Mitch's wife, Jen, and send
prayers and blessings for Mitch's mom, Sherry.
(56:07):
They're good people that the world needs, so I'm sure they
would they would appreciate someprayers and blessings.
Absolutely. Oh, but we only have one guy
listening and it's that meth head beat and his head on the
wall, right? Yeah, that's OK.
He could, he's on meth so he could pray for hours.
Oh yeah, that's going to be likea mega prayer because he's never
(56:28):
going. To sleep?
No. The mega prayer from the meth
head. Yeah.
Because he can't sleep so he canpray forever.
That's. Funny.
Yeah. There you go.
God, excuse me, I'm sorry. So, but so how's the home care
going with Jen? Like, is it?
(56:48):
Is it, is she comfortable and like, like you have her in a bed
and, and she's OK and you're giving her everything she needs
and all that or what? What's it like for her now?
Oh, it's like living hell because I'm sick.
So she does everything and yeah,yeah, so.
Yeah, so she is up and around and doing normal stuff, right?
(57:08):
Yeah, yeah, she just gets fatigued.
And you? Know don't do it.
OK, I'm sorry. The cat's on a rampage today, so
I'm going to pull gentle disciplinary tool #1 which is
water. I'm going to spray him up the
squirt gun if he climbs the drapes again.
Oh, good job. He saw the squirt gun and now
(57:29):
he's like, oh, maybe I shouldn'tfinish tearing those drapes.
He's he's acting off OK, I hate to do that.
He is totally out of control though.
He just, I've never seen a cat like this.
Like for every personality aspect of a cat and some people
love that, their personalities and some people hate them.
(57:51):
He is like 150% cat. He, he just, he's the center of
attention. He dominates everything.
I'm only his servant. He wakes me up to feed him.
He wakes me up to let him go outside.
He makes me, you know, he just, he runs in front of me.
He, he follows me everywhere. He totally stalked me And, and
(58:13):
it's because I'm his slave and he's, you know, His Majesty the
cat basically. He, he's very, very cat so.
So maybe we are here to be humanslaves, but it's just to cats,
because even the Egyptians had statues to cats.
They did. Cats have been regarded as being
(58:36):
like actually powerful spiritualfigures, maybe even gods for a
long time. And if he like all the
spirituality stuff that I listento, all the spiritual physics
stuff, they say that yeah, cats are, are kind of perfect
creatures. And they, they're directly in
tune with the, the actual life flow of the morphic field of
(58:58):
infinite potential that we really are.
And they know exactly what they are and they, and they have no
desire to be anything else, which is kind of key because lot
of the rest of us go crazy because we want to be something
else. You know, like, if only I could
be like that or if only I could do that.
But cats are very, very accepting of who and what they
(59:19):
are. They're totally in touch with
larger psychic forces and they're masters of meditation
because they spend about 85% of their lives asleep.
They say that when a cat is purring, that's actually a form
of meditation. They also say that the cats can
(59:40):
see spirits. And I'm sure everybody's seen
had dogs too. I'm sure everybody's seen like
your cat or your dog just suddenly look over like he saw
something and he and he, he's staring right at it.
And you look, you know, into that space and there's nothing
there. Everybody's seen that.
It was a you've seen that with sugar and stuff, right?
(01:00:01):
Yeah. Yeah, that so he, They say cats
can see spirits. They know, they also know that
they're only here for it's temporary and they know they're
going to be gone soon. And they, they also say that,
yeah, that they understand that we reincarnate.
That's, that's like all the buzzon cats.
And so, yeah, at different timesin human history, cats have been
(01:00:22):
worshipped as gods and and, you know, highly revered.
So they're definitely fascinating creatures, but they
will shred you drapes and pee onyour towels.
So I'm not sure what that has todo with like, how enlightened
they are. Speaking of which, how sugar
(01:00:44):
man. Sugar the dog is good.
Yeah. Yeah, she's, she's living it up.
She's doing fine. She's on a couple meds.
But you know, that's old age. She's been around for 15 years.
Wow. So yeah, is she laying there
(01:01:05):
next to Jen being a good dog and, you know, keeping her
company and everything? She was.
When I left, she came outside onthe patio.
Hey, how is it up here? We we had a nothing short of a
deluge the last last night like it was a heavy rain.
Well, all day yesterday, all dayyesterday it rained.
(01:01:26):
Did it rain up there too? Yeah, that's what it was Friday.
That's how I got sick. I was working out in the rain,
in that rain, meeting inspectorsand on job sites and stuff like
that. So I got that's how I got sick.
That's what got me sick. So going around in the cold and
stuff. Yeah.
(01:01:48):
Well, we add up here. We, you know, we I live in the
desert. So they rain is like a godsend.
So we're very happy for it. But it's certainly cold and dark
and wet and and we have like a baby pool in the backyard for
for our sun and and it's like half filled from all the rain
(01:02:09):
that fell. So it was a lot of rain, yeah.
But, and so you got, you got thesame thing that that Creek down
in the desert you guys go to is probably full of water.
Yeah, I know. I was thinking I prob we're
probably, I'm probably gonna take him out there to go check
it out 'cause I was thinking theriver will be raging now from,
(01:02:33):
from the rains last night. I think that's what we're going
to do today. But we got to be careful out
there and it's, it's cold, it's,it's only going to be 50° out
there. So he can't really play in the
water like he normally likes to do.
But I think if I think we'll bundle up though, and maybe go
take a look at it, they're just to also it it, it's a little bit
(01:02:54):
dangerous because there's flash flood warnings all over the
place. And that, that little Creek that
we go to is definitely a place where a flash flood could
quickly happen. So but I do want to go look at
it. Yeah, 'cause I bet the river's
like totally full right now. We'll just.
Hello. Is it still raining?
(01:03:17):
Oh no, You know, it was supposedto continue raining through
today, but the forecast changed and it says 50% chance of rain.
And where I live in the desert, if they say 50% chance of rain,
that means it's not going to rain.
So it might be all over. But I thought, you know, like
yesterday he was with his mom and, and you know, so they were
(01:03:39):
just in her place. And, and then, you know, he gets
bored just being in the house, so he goes stir crazy like
everybody. So she'll just take him out like
yesterday. Normally she would like take him
shopping or something, but yesterday it was so raining,
rainy and cold and stuff. She just drove him around for a
while in the car, but he was so happy just to get out for a
(01:04:00):
little bit because he's been laying there being sick and
stuff. So I was thinking, you know,
Sunday scenic drive, like maybe we should drive, we'll drive out
there and take a look at it and stuff.
But we're we'll avoid like actually, you know, going down
to the shoreline and all that because it's too cold for him to
get wet today, you know, and he's just, he's just getting
over the flu and and me too. So but yeah, just I'm glad you
(01:04:24):
brought that up. That was the first thing that
popped to my mind too. Like I bet that river is raging
out in the desert right now thatthat might be really cool to
see. What are you doing?
How, what are you? How are you guys surviving being
at home like sick and stuff? I'm.
Going to probably go back to rest after this.
Yeah. Yeah.
Even doing this is no I got to take the dogs for a walk and
(01:04:48):
then I feel pretty, pretty exhausted right now actually.
Don't get this flu. That's my best advice to.
You don't get this flu, man Flu if you're a man.
Extra protection. Yeah, try to get the girl flu
where you like, build a ballroomon the White House while you're
(01:05:09):
sick. Get the girl fruit flu.
That one's a lot easier on you. Yeah.
Don't get the girl flu. Do laundry.
They can take care of the kids. Yeah.
They can care for you because you're sick with the man flu,
which is more serious than the girl flu.
Yeah. So whatever you whatever you do,
(01:05:29):
man, do not get the man flu. Yeah, yeah, I definitely avoid
that. Also, start treating treating
old people with respect and listen to what they say.
And meanwhile, we'll get that whole Logan's Run thing set up
for the next generation. Two Men with a Mic is recorded
(01:05:50):
at close on a Hanger Studios. You can reach the guys at the
