, hello Bobbi.
So just before the show,someone was getting chewed out
over Watch Envy, so that wasinteresting.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Well, not chewed out,
I wouldn't say.
But it's just interesting thatmy daughters work multiple jobs
or something, or multiple shifts, because they don't have a pot
to piss in, because they have nomoney, and yet they have these
expensive.
What do we call those?
Exercise watches or what arethey?
Speaker 1 (01:02):

watch, so it's, it's apple
product might be a smart watch.

Yeah, yeah okay okay
so y'all have that.
And I just got a new smartwatch only because dr domain,
god love him, uh bought me a newone and I do love it.
Thank you, dr domain, uh, butbut but it's like, how do you
kids afford that stuff when, hmm, you have no money?
Speaker 1 (01:32):
I can tell you how I
afforded mine it was a gift it
was a gift to me from the fivefinger discount oh no, no, it
was a gift oh, that's nice.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
It wasn't for me.
I know that much.
No, and it's not like it's thetop of the line one.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
It's literally, I
think, the cheapest one.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
It just has all the
bells and whistles I see well,
dr domain has a really nice one.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Oh, that I bought for
him I know and I can see it
from here and it's almost thesize of his head.

If I got one and I'm like, ohmy gosh, you couldn't have
picked a different one.

right here but I bought that
for you for your birthday, sothere was a reason why he got
that, yeah, but he bought mine,which is not as expensive.
I mean, it's a nice one, don'tget me wrong, but I didn't want

it is part of the job.
But, you know, breaks my heart,see you get hurt but and I know
, had you, uh, had your way hadwe been on the streets and I've
not been clocked in it wouldhave been a whole nother story.
(04:24):
But you can't do that in thoseplaces.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Gotta follow the
rules, and you know I mean god,
love them, that they try toprotect us out there.
But there's only so much thatwe can do, and and it is what it
is and it is just uh, you knowit's a condition of employment
yeah, you kind of sign up for itwhen I mean you don't, you
don't really sign up to get yourass kicked every day, but.
(04:46):
I mean it can happen.
Yeah, yeah, it can happen, butI'm good.
I mean nothing's broken, youknow, just bruised and swollen
and a little painful.
But yeah, speaking of that, ourtopic today we're going to talk
about really interesting waysto make money on some unique
side hustles.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Yeah.
So there are so many uniqueside hustles out there and every
time I hear somebody makingmoney off of something I'm like
what, how?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
You make.
Yeah, who's paying for this?
Who's paying for that?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
You know, you know,
one of the most bizarre ones
that I think and people aremaking literally hundreds of
thousands, if not millions isselling your pictures of your
feet, see now.
Now, I'm not talking aboutsexual pictures.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
No, no, no.
I'm just talking pictures ofyour feet Like pictures in high
heels or just of your feet,right, you know maybe a little
toenail paint on it yeah.
See, and if my feet, my feetare all scarred up from
surgeries and stuff and I'm likeis there, is there a an
audience for that?
Because I could use some extramoney.
Like I got to get my truckfixed.
You know things like that.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I've thought about
that too, because every time I
go in for my pedicure it's likeI've grown talons or something
on my feet and you know theywant to go get the belt sander
Right and so I'm like yeah.
And and God love them.
Every time I go in, they go.
What happened?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
What happened?
What happened to you?
Why are you like this Glory be?
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Because they do.
They look really bad.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
They say you out
catching fish.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
What are you?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
doing oh stop, Stop.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
And then you know, I
play pickleball a lot and at
least once a year I lose a bigtoenail.
Yeah, and that's disgusting allin itself.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Well, and you had a
surgery when I was younger,
because I remember you using myskateboard to get around.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I did On your pinky
toes.
Yes, I had the bones pulled outand turned around because my
toes were laying down yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
So you got kind of
funky feet.
I'm sure that there's anaudience for that out there that
they would want those pictures.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Would they be called
combat feet or something I don't
know?
Speaker 1 (06:54):
unique um hunter's
feet or something you know,
things like gorilla toes, butyou know if, if you find a guy
like, let's say, you're dating aguy and he's got, you know,
very nice feet, you could justshave them suckers, put some
toenail paint on it and theywould never know.
Doctor.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Domain.
I'm going to be checking yourfeet out just a little bit
closer next time I see them.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Don't get any ideas.
Oh, you never know, I'm a lightsleeper.
Oh well, this is true.
This is true, this is true.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
So, yeah, so today
we're going to talk about some
unique side hustles, you knowselling your pictures and we
know that sexual you know pornsells for sure.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
And so we're not
going to talk about porn.
Okay, I don't understand,though, because you can get it
for free.
I know Like that's so weird tome.
It's like you have an entirefree industry that you could
look up and people are stillpaying for it, like why yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Or they, they, what's
the one?
Um, I'm trying to think herethat, like I was watching some
show, some reality show, andthey're all on this and it's
like they can be in swimsuits orwhatever.
They don't even have to benaked and they're selling these
pictures like for real moneyyeah, real good money, yeah,
okay.
It's crazy to me.
(08:08):
I don't know, my body's notsuch that I could.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I could do anything
like I don't know man, I've seen
some of the strippers at theouter limits.
I think that you could givethem a run for their money
really is that on amateur nightum no actually that's the
professionals that's what'sscary that is, but you know I
mean there's side hustles thateverybody knows, like doordash
and instacart um, you knowyou've got lyft and uber, things
(08:31):
like that.
I think those are more normalside hustles like dog walking.
Dog walking kind of a normalbabysitting maybe you know if,
if somebody needs driven around,for you know, chore, you're not
chores, but like errands yeaheven like the elderly you know,
just picking them up and takingthem for their doctor's
appointments right, or pickingthem up and taking them out for
(08:52):
a meal and just conversing withthem.
Yeah, you know things like that, but there are some pretty
weird ones out there.
Can you think of one?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
that's really weird
well, yeah, actually I can this
ought to be interesting.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
So quite a few years
back, there was actually a
social media star who was undersome fire for the side hustle
that she was doing because somepeople got sick from it and what
she was doing is she wasselling jars of her bath water.
The gag that came out of you.
(09:30):
Now here's the funny thingthese guys got sick because they
were freaking drinking it okay,like this is an honest thing.
This made news news.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Oh my gosh, and this
was like a celebrity that was
doing it.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Well, it was an
internet celebrity.
So you know a social media starand it was just wild to me that
people are paying for this.
So that was her side hustle andas far as I know, you know at
that time she was making acouple million dollars doing
this.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
People have too much
money.
I think, oh God, I'm tellingyou.
So I saw a really bizarre onehere recently where these people
would eat certain foods andthen belch into the jar and
close the jar up real quick.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
What you think when
you open that jar, that it
really does smell like that.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Oh, you don't
remember when we were young, and
oh no, that wasn't you, thatwas my sister.
So when, and oh no, that wasn'tyou, that was my sister.
So when we were young, you know, we had those mason jars.
Yeah, of course we still havethem now.
But you know, if you fart in ajar and put the lid on real
quick and put it in the freezerand then you hand it to your
sibling and say, hey, what'sthis smell like?
It actually does smell really.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
yeah, it keeps its
smell, so I did see that as a
side hustle, and people areactually paying to have that
delivered to their door.
Yeah, what a gross society wehave.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
People are so weird.
People are going to people.
They've been peopling since thebeginning of time.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
I guess I'm not sure
I like that people in business,
because it's pretty sick.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, and you know,
and some of the ones that I've
seen, even around my community,is we have someone who will come
and power wash your garbagecans you know, that's not a bad
idea.
It's not, but it is uniquebecause I mean, who would really
think you know to offer thatservice?
Or they also not only powerwash them, they offer to bring
(11:19):
the garbage cans up after thegarbage has been picked up for
people who can't get there, orthey're you know, because we
have a 24 hour window where wehave to have our garbage cans
off the curb within 24 hours.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
That's because you
live in the city?
Speaker 1 (11:34):
It is, it's because I
live in the city, but you know
there are people out there thateither they work, they're on the
road or they're, you know,disabled or elderly, and you
know these kids go around andit's mostly kids, because these
kids are hustlers.
Yeah, and they will go around,they'll bring the garbage can up
, they'll wash it out, they'llput it where you know it's
(11:55):
accessible to the person andthey get paid for it.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
You could have used
that the other day.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
I could have used it
because, my garbage can was
horrid.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
It was terrible,
she's leaving out an important
fact.
Oh my gosh, it had what werethose things?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
maggots?
Oh yeah, and he.
So he brings it back up and andhe sits it outside the garage
and he goes.
Should I leave it out in thesun to let it bake and I go,
yeah yeah, please, please, do soyou know back in my day, and I
think even today, there's a lotof kids, or not even just kids,
because I know some adults,because I've had to hire them.
Their side hustle is mowingstill.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Or trimming
somebody's yard, you can make
pretty good money.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Oh yeah, we got a kid
that actually goes around on a
ride on mower with a trailer onthe back of it with his weed
eater stuff.
He will literally ride aroundour town and just go up and
knock on doors hey, can I mowyour lawn?
I'll only charge you $20.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
I'll only charge you
$40.
Or even shoveling snow right,clearing your sidewalks and
things like that, because againin the city you got to have your
sidewalk cleared Raking leavesAny of that?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
I mean that's a
common side hustle, though.
I mean that's pretty commonstuff.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
So mine wasn't really
unique in a sense, but I had a
few over the years.
So I went to auction school andI was a sort of you know
licensed auctioneer.
And that was years ago and Iwent to school for it and opened
up an auction house.
Then I went to work for theenergy business and tried to do
them both at the same time.
Realized I was making moremoney in the energy business, so
(13:30):
I kind of gave it up, yeah.
And so, you know, I thought, oh, what do I want to be when I
grow up?
Oh, I want to be an auctioneer.
Nah, that didn't work out.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
I think you should
try it.
Auction off this pen, that pen.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Let me hear it.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah, when I Now I
will say I do remember that
because I used to ride mytricycle around in the auction
house.
Yeah, you did While I wasauctioning.
Yeah, while I was calling.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
You would be going up
and down the aisles.
Nobody would be paying anyattention to what I was selling.
They were just paying attentionto you.
That's because I was cute backthen.
What happened?
So the second thing that I didI was trying to think here is oh
, this was actually the firstthing is I used to do singing
telegrams me and another gal.
(14:13):
This was back in our day whenwe were pencil thin and young.
God love us.
And you know, ambitious yeah andwe could actually sing a little
bit, but we didn't need to singa lot because we looked good in
what we were, right, theydidn't care what you sounded
like here.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
They didn't care.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
So we would show up,
sing happy birthday, sing, for
he's a jolly good fellow.
Whatever it was, get the heckout of there, collect our money
and get out of there, and so, tobe honest, it was quite
lucrative.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Yeah, and you know
that's funny because I didn't
know that you used to do that.
I did that for a little whilefor the theatrical shop out in
Valley Junction.
I did the singing telegrams butfortunately or unfortunately,
apparently I wasn't prettyenough to just do it by myself.
So I had actual costumes,because it was a costume shop.
(15:00):
So I had actual costumes Iwould show up in like a big corn
cob or a pink monkey.
There was one time that I waswas this it was a grim reaper
and he was like 10 feet tall andI had to like duck under and
get into the building and thengo sing happy birthday to this
person in a grim reaper outfit Ijust want to know what kind of
(15:20):
event was going on that you hadto dress up like a corncob?
it was literally a singingtelegram and it was a happy
birthday.
It was an iowa birthday theme,so they had me dress up as a
corncgram and it was a happybirthday.
It was an Iowa birthday theme.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
So they had me dress
up as a corn cob and go sing
happy birthday.
We are the state of corn, soyeah.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
I did that too.
That's funny that I didn't evenknow that you had done that,
and I did that for a littlewhile.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
So then my next one
was I went to school in Montana
to become a certified equinemassage therapist because I had
horses my whole life and reallyI wasn't interested in making
money off of it although I did.
I was really interested inlearning more about my horses
and making sure that I knew youknow how to take care of them
and their muscular skeletaldisorders and that sort of thing
(16:02):
.
So I did go do that, I did go dothat, and other than that I
don't know that I did anythingelse to really make money.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Other than work
constantly.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
See, and I did weird
nerdy stuff like I would go to
shows and find comic books andresell them or I would do card
games like Magic the Gathering,things like that.
Yeah, I did a lot of that and Idid gambling.
I guess would be a side hustle.
You know blackjack, things likethat.
Yeah, um, yeah, I did a lot ofthat and I did gambling I guess
would be a side hustle, you knowblackjack, things like that.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Oh, I guess I did
teach a kickboxing exercise
class for about 10 years yeah,you did so yeah, I did do that
that kind of I tell you what youwant to screw up your, your
flexor muscles.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Do it, do it, yeah,
because man so there's this
funny thing now that we'retalking about it.
So you know people a lot oftimes you know how you can go to
like enterprise and rent a caror things like that.
So there's now this thing whereprivate owners can rent their
cars.
Yeah, out to people, yeah.
So I was watching where thisprivate owner rented this very
(17:06):
nice car.
Um, you know, the people paid,paid for it, everything like
that.
I think it was like two dayslater he got a word from a
friend saying hey, I think I sawyour car on youtube and he's
like no no, you know no, here'sthe funny thing.
And entered it and they racedit.
Oh my god, I mean they paid torent it.
(17:35):
They didn't say what they weregoing to do with it.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Oh my gosh, so did
they bring it back damaged?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
so yeah it had a
couple thousand dollars worth of
damage to like the brakes, thetie rods, things like that.
But yeah, he watched his car inthis race that he had no idea
about.
He thought he was just rentingit out to people you know to
drive around the city, thingslike that.
Wow, that's funny.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Yeah, that's funny.
Dr Domain, did you ever haveany side hustles to make money?
Speaker 3 (18:04):
A side hustle that
doesn't exist anymore.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
What is it?
What was?
Speaker 3 (18:07):
it.
Delivering paper.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Well, like a
newspaper carrier, yeah, but
that was more of a job, wasn'tit?
I did that as a kid, yeah, itwas kind of a no.
No.
Actually it helped me kind ofbridge between a couple of
different jobs.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Oh, okay, yeah, I did
it when I was over 18.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Yeah, and I think
that was pretty much it.
Okay, so I rented stuff out,but that was later on.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
So we have a motor
home, and when we bought the
motor home, you had suggestedthat we rent the motor home out,
and I was no, no, poo-poo.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Oh yeah, I've seen
that They'll go and set it up at
the campsite for you and letyou rent it.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
But the way I look at
it is.
You know it's like a rentedmule.
You know there's a saying outthere you ride them like a
rented mule, which means youdon't give a crap about that
mule, and it's rented.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Well, it's just like
renting a car you go, you rent
the car, you pay for theinsurance.
I mean, you could crap yourpants in the front seat and ride
it into a lake, and thatinsurance is going to cover it.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
You don't care, it's
not your car People don't care
about that stuff.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
No, it's not yours.
Yeah, it's a big risk.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Yeah, it is a very
big risk, like renting out your
home.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Yep, there's some
potential there too.
Yeah, there is potential.
If you want to take that risk,yeah and you know people Vrbo
their homes.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
They do Airbnb things
, want to take all my personal
stuff out of my home when Ileave, and uh, and there's so
many horror stories there are,there's a lot, just absolute
horror stories about it.
There's like, uh, so how abouthave you ever heard of people
who go around and offer toremove your dog poop out of your
yard?
Speaker 3 (19:41):
just saw something
the other day for that, yeah,
there's somebody in our townthat does it.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
that's a good idea.
It is yes, yes.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Nobody wants to do
that, so what they do is they
charge a fee for the first time,because you know the first time
is going to be the worst time,right?
And then if you book with themat a steady pace, afterwards,
it's a discounted rate and theycome and they remove the poop
and it's done.
You don't have to worry aboutit, wow.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
That's about it.
Wow, yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
I mean gross, but
yeah cool no, but I mean it's a
service, you know if you thinkabout it.
I mean, my dogs have beentrained not to poop up by the
house, so they go out in thetimber and poop, and they do it
at both houses yeah, so it'skind of weird.
I mean, it's not like I trainedthem to do that they.
I just took them out in thetimber to poop before and right,
that's what they do.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
See my dog only poops
in one spot, so it's just a
mess of dog crap you know when,maybe you should call somebody,
come clean the poop up should orthe owner of the dog.
I was gonna say the owner ofthe dog, who is my child, should
pay for it or just go out andclean up the poop.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Yeah, so any other
side hustles that you've had dr
domain uh, I used to volunteerfor the National Guard.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Is that considered a
side?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
hustle.
I think a side hustle is whereyou make money.
Yeah, I mean, I did a lot ofvolunteer stuff too.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Yeah, it was part of
my dream job.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
No, that's not your
dream job.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
It's a water cannon
operator.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
That's right, oh yeah
.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
No, I did volunteer.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
That'd be a cool job.
No, I did, that'd be a cool jobyeah, but I would love to be a
water cannon operator.
That would be cool that'd beway cool.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
So have you heard of

Speaker 3 (22:09):
I'll be your friend.
Bobby, no, not friend 20 bucksan hour Not friend?
Speaker 2 (22:15):

thing.
Speaker 2 (22:25):

You got aunt edith over theregoing.
Why haven't you had a boyfriendin 10 years?
So are you?
Speaker 3 (22:46):

that the customer for the
service is primarily a woman?
No, no, no I can tell you guyswould never do this.
This is those would be offeredto guys.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Well, it could be a
beard too, like if their family
doesn't know that they're gaythey could rent a woman and say
we, you know, this is mygirlfriend yeah, and we've been
together for so long, type ofthing.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
I mean there's
endless possibilities for this.
There are.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
And that runs into
the cuddle buddies that get paid
to come over and cuddle withyou with no sexual contact.
Yeah, nothing like that.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
That'd be $30 an hour
, Bobby.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
I charge more than
that.
I mean, you got some reallyweird people out there, but you
gotta wear socks.
Yeah right.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
So no sex involved,
just cuddling, no kissing, none
of that business.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
All you do is come
and cuddle with them because
they want to hug, because theywant that contact with someone.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
I'll cuddle with you.
I'll cuddle with you.
Oh, I'll do it with you forfree, god shut up.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Can you not flaunt it
everywhere in my face, every
day?
This is getting old.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Bobby why haven't you
found someone?
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I've never said that
to you, I've said Go run a
friend.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
One day you'll find
your soulmate.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
You'll find your
person.
Run a friend, yeah, one day.
One day you'll find yoursoulmate, you'll find your
person.
You will, right now, right nowyou still got a chicken.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Well, I mean, I think
it was like a taco or a chicken
sandwich and I already ate ithere's the problem I don't even
know what that chicken's name istoday well, he doesn't have a
name today because, um, hewasn't supposed to be on the
show triple toad.
No name no cuddles, cuddles,there we go.
His name is cuddles oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
So um what are some
other?
Speaker 1 (24:34):
so I have one that
goes with where I grew up.
Oh, so, a lot of people don'tknow I grew up on a cemetery um,
okay, you didn't grow up on acemetery.
Well, it was it was thecemetery.
Your dad took care of acemetery and the and the house
was right next door.
Well, and the cemetery wentaround our house too, around our
(24:54):
yard, things like that, right,so there's actually people who
go and clean and maintaingravestones.
That's true.
Yeah, that is true, I saw thatand I think that's so cool.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
I think it's way cool
.
Most of it is done for free asa volunteer type thing right
somebody will go do that for you.
The other thing that would becool and maybe they already do
it, but you'd have to havepermission from the whoever runs
the cemetery is to do someghost tours oh yeah, they do,
those like the walkthrough tourslike here's where so-and-so is
buried, and he was buried withdynamite no, they didn't, but
(25:28):
here's what they did.
Do they did?
What do you?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
call them Treasure
hunts, yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
The treasure hunts,
like they would put something in
the cemetery and give themdirections on where to find it.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah, and it was like
pitch black, dead of night, and
that was like a college, likehigh school college thing, where
it was just for fun, oh gotcha.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
And so they'd show up
in different cars at different
times and go try to find thisstuff, and it was like a what
did what?
They used to call them Nottreasure hunts, but what'd they
call them Scavenger?
Speaker 3 (25:56):
hunts, scavenger
hunts.
There you go, yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
And so they'd put
those little glow sticks next to
it out there, because it wassuper dark.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Yeah yeah, we didn't
have any lights in the cemetery.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
And so they'd come in
.
They got our permission to dothat, which was kind of cool.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, it was kind of
cool, yeah, because usually it
was right around Halloween timetoo, because they wanted it to
be spooky type of thing, youknow.
And I mean that's the one daywe were popular as kids, the
other days we were just thefreaks that lived on the
cemetery.
That's right.
But how about those people thatATMs and vending machines?
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Yeah, they make some
good money.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Oh man.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Yeah, right there,
that's good money.
And now most of them aredigital because Dr Domain
everywhere we go.
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
It is such a pain.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
He has to play the
jukebox.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
Oh, the jukebox.
Yeah, that's a great thing.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
That's a moneymaker,
well, and a lot of times it's
even on your phone.
You've got the touch tunes thatyou can just have the app on
your phone and you can playanywhere.
Yeah, you don't even have to bethere.
No, and the funny thing is so Iwas a bartender off and on in
the town that I live in and inone of the bars I had a friend
there who bartended, and on thenights that I was off and he was
(27:14):
bartending, I would stack thejukebox with Cher songs, because
it just absolutely drove himnuts.
I'd be at home just paying forCher song after Cher song and
he'd be calling me stop, I can'tdo any more, cher, you need to
stop.
I'm going to turn the jukeboxoff and I'm like, yeah, okay,
(27:35):
but yeah, you can do it fromanywhere.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Yeah, that seems it's
really good.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
I'm not promoting
them, but uh, no but I think
it's a big money maker, oh yeahit's gotta be, it's gotta be
especially if you're going towaffle house.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
You kind of waffle
set, the mood waffle house.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Setting the mood at
waffle house why?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
because the the line
cook in the back.
Who's strapped with the nineisn't set in the mood enough.
We know where we are and whywe're there.
Let's not play games.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Little Johnny Cash or
Waffles Put George straight on
the jukebox and shut up Likecome on, there's a lot of people
who restore furniture and stuffand I love watching that on the
reels Right On YouTube andstuff.
Yeah, because I've done alittle bit of that.
I used to do it periodically.
I remember I bought these twolittle tables from an auction
(28:23):
that was back when I wasauctioning and I think I paid $2
for them for both of them and Icompletely redid them and sold
them for $80.
Now, that was back in the day.
You know.
That was way back.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
And so I really have
a lot of respect for these
people who have the vision andhave the ability and the
artistic talent, because I stillhave some projects out in the
garage that I plan on doing, butI just don't have the patience
anymore.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
When I start
something, I want it done right
now, right, and a lot of theseare, you know, week, month long
type of projects right I just donot have that kind of patience
anymore so one of the sidehustles I had when before I had
kids, um was mainly to benefitme in a way that didn't involve
money.
I mean, I got paid really goodfor it.
(29:16):
So I used to work at the outdoorfestivals, so like Laser Fest,
dot Fest, laserpalooza, thesegiant outdoor festivals that
would have these big headlinerbands come in and they would
have, you know, two, threestages of bands going all day,
all night long, and I would workfor the companies who would
(29:39):
either sell the food and drinktickets or security, or even in
the food and drink tents,because, first of all, you're
right there next to the stage,you get to see everything, yeah,
and a lot of times the actualperformers would be at your tent
because they want food, theywant drinks, they want, you know
(30:00):
, to go get some beer tickets,things like that.
Because it's such a small andlocal festive, you know thing, I
would make a couple hundredbucks a day doing that, get to
see the bands that I wanted tosee and, you know, if I was
lucky, at the end of the nightI'd score some merchandise that
they didn't sell yeah, I know alot of people who volunteer at
(30:22):
like not just the concerts, butif they can get a job at like
the civic center and right tosee those bands yeah, see the
bands, see the sports teams play.
You're working, but it's notthat big a deal, right?
Speaker 2 (30:32):
you know you're
working but it's not that big a
deal right you know you'reseeing everything that's going
on right so I think that's kindof cool.
Um, back to unique side hustlesI was trying to think of don't
hurt yourself?
I don't, I know.
Do you smell wood burning?
Speaker 1 (30:47):
I smell the hamster
wheel burning your poor hamster.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
He died.
All you hear is eek, eek, yeah,yeah.
So you know a lot of things,like you know being a tutor or
you know a lot of that stuff tome is like a job, but it can be
a side hustle for people Ifyou're smart enough to be a
tutor.
Right, I had to have a tutor,so it wasn't like I could do any
(31:14):
of that.
But, um, what about voiceovers?
Would you ever do anyvoiceovers?
Speaker 1 (31:18):
um, I don't enjoy my
voice, but if people did, yeah,
I would absolutely do?
Speaker 2 (31:23):
yeah, I would too.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
I mean, my voice is
kind of screechy like
fingernails going down achalkboard, but I mean like I
could do like a rip off of likesouth park cartman and be like
ma'am kitty's being a dildo,something like that I know you
don't watch south park cartmanand be like ma'am kitty's being
a jojo, something like that.
I know you don't watch southpark, but people out there who
do would know who that is likeI'm saying.
So the funny thing is is on theway home from like appointments
(31:45):
and stuff with the kids in thecar I've sang entire songs in
cartman's voice and just had thekids cracking up, that's so
yeah you had talked about.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
You know, taking
people where they need to go,
you know, or even deliveringpackages is kind of a side
hustle too, and I don't meanpicking them off off somebody
else's uh porch and then todeliver them to your own house.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
That's a porch pirate
.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
That's a porch pirate
right there.
So but, um, I've thought about,you know, just like renting out
a room for the night, because Ihave this part of the house
that is rarely used.
Yeah, and somebody could havethe whole part of the house and
I wouldn't even know thatthey're down here but true, but
I mean that's.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
That's kind of scary
to me to let somebody you don't
even know into your home whileyou're there yeah, but that's
kind of like hey jeffrey dahmer.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Come on in yeah, and
especially if you're still
living there and you're kind ofsharing it with somebody.
Yeah, that's what I'm sayingyeah, so anything else, bobby,
today that you can think of?
That was I would like to hearfrom our listeners um on what
their side hustles are.
I know several people have them.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
I would say, probably
the best one that I found was
like selling vintage clothing.
I like that.
That's so cool.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
So here's what
Poshmark?
Speaker 1 (33:04):
you know eBay, things
like that Stuff you've had
since high school, like thestarter jackets.
You know things like that, man,those go for good money if you
kept them from high school.
They really do.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
And also you know you
can go to like the Goodwill or
the starvation army flea market,flea market things like that
and pick up stuff and then putthem on eBay and I'm good with
that.
I mean yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
Anything you can do
to flip a buck.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
I mean like seriously
do it and do it for cash and
keep it away from the government, because hey, you know that I'm
for unionizing sex workers, soliterally anything.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
We already did that
podcast the world's oldest
occupation.
Yeah, yeah, thank you very much.
Protect them people.
Very much yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
So if you can do it
for cash, cash is king.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Always.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Always.
You know, if you can do it forcash, cash is king, always,
always.
Um, you know, if you can do itfor cash and keep it away from
the government.
I hate the government.
I've told you that before, timeand time again hate them, hate
them, hate them.
Yeah, hate paying taxes ontaxes, about the taxes of and
