Next, on Cabin Pressure withSean and G hey, everyone welcome

(00:38):
.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
This is cabin pressure what's up everybody?

Speaker 1 (00:41):
we're back here.
This week in cabin pressure, Ihad to throw my two cents there.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
It's about a penny so what's going on, man?

Speaker 1 (00:53):
oh man, you know what , um, I'm like aggressively
attacking my basement.
You know, the flood that we hadand everything.
I had a uh, it wasn't really aflood, I had a leak in my
basement and you know, here'sthe crazy thing I haven't told
you about this.
So when I decided I was goingto get into it and seal up the
wall and everything and this isjust a little side segue for

(01:14):
anybody that's homedo-it-yourself geekers out there
but my seal plate on my house,you know you have those three
2x6s at the bottom of you're uh,framing and everything right so
it was laying on the foundationand over in the corner of the
room right there, um, it was.
You know I had a mouse that had, like, dug through that bottom

(01:34):
seal plate and ate through andhe ate through a hole that came
through and got into the officeand then slowly I had water
coming in, seeping into theoffice and everything, and
that's what we discovered wasthe problem and everything.
But now I went in and dug it,you know, got all that shit out
of there and everything.
But come to find out when Iactually started cleaning out
the whole seal plate and stuffand the foundation, like it

(01:57):
wasn't just like the mouse hadlike a little bit of a head
start, because the foundationand the seal plate was like
often at like a angle right.
So like right in the cornerthere there was like a gap and
the gap was probably about abouta good half inch and I mean I
could feel like air comingthrough the gap and all this
stuff is like it had like a foamrubber, like a foam like plate

(02:21):
that was in there that due to todo some insulating, but it was.
It was total shit.
So I had to take all that out,foam it up, block it up the
whole night, get in there.
I do that, I did it.
I didn't put foam, I put afreaking caulking insulation and
everything.
But it was.
It was wild because I was likeshit man, I could have had a

(02:42):
freaking army of mice in there,like I'm thinking about what
kind of damn mouse freakingchewed through.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
He got through there, looked at you and was like what
?
I just chewed through all thatshit.
I ain't afraid of you, right?
I just chewed all the waythrough your damn wall.
All this shit got around hereand you're looking at me like
you're going to kill me.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Well, gonna kill me.
Well, the crazy thing is thathe didn't go much further than
the walls, like I mean, we neverhad any wall.
You know holes from our wall.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
You know, like the classic, like you see the mouse,
like dug through the eightthrough the wall.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
That's one damn dedicated mouse.
Yeah, man, it's a.
It was, it was, it was roughbut you had the metal plates.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
It was it the steel framing you got down there.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
I had a steel framing in there and you know the water
coming in and stuff rusted outa lot of stuff.
But I had to replace some ofthat stuff and, uh, oh, put it
back all together and it's agood thing.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Good thing about that man.
You know both me and you arethe same way.
Um, take a time, learn how todo that shit, man, because when
the stuff goes bad, if you gotto pay somebody, you can pay a
lot of.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
So if I would have just like said you know what,
screw it, I'm going to havesomebody come in here and do the
whole thing.
I mean, the whole thing wasgoing to cost me $3,000.
Ridiculous man $3,000 for alittle teeny corner of the room
and a recarpeted room.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
And that wasn't even a sheet of drywall that you
replaced it with Do you knowwhat they were going to charge
me for taking off the freakingheater vent cover on the room.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
I can't even imagine, man, they want to use a
screwdriver sean yeah, 17 topull that plate off.
Man, I was like what you got tobe come on 17, but man, that's
an expensive.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
I mean, they had that thing broken down to everything
.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
I have a.
I have a coat hook on my wallin some office.
Right, they wanted another 23to take that off that.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Well, that's like cutting that piece of carpeting
out.
That was bad too, right Carpetremoval company.
Right, that's going to cost yousome money.
You've got to actually use autility blade on that, sean.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Dude, dude, I'm telling you, I looked at the
whole thing.
I'm like this is crazy, I canget it done.
So, anyways, I got somebodycoming in to do the actually
painting the mud and all thatstuff, and I sealed up the wall
myself, hung the drywall, and soI'll get him to do that thing.
He's going to do this in myoffice and I got a room upstairs
I want repainted.
He's going to do all that stufffor $1,500.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
Now, that's worth it, because painting sucks man.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, man, I don't want to do anything.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
If they're good, they're pretty quick.
So I mean I understand that thepainting painting is no fun if
they're really good at it.
Uh yeah, that's, that's worththe money.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yeah, he said that it's going to probably you know,
because of the mud problem likethree days to get this all done
.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
But yeah, but if it was me, truthfully, I sound
pretty good at painting, so Imean, it'd be me.
Unfortunately, I'd be doing ittoo.
But if you're not good at it,yeah, that's worth the money.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Yeah, I just I just don't have the time right now to
do it.
Like I thought I was going tohave the time and then got to
the point where I'm like I don'tI want to get this thing done
and back into my space again andso trying to just get it, I was
like I got to expedite this,get some people to help me here.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
So yeah, I got it all buttoned up and stuff ready to
go, but now it's just the finaltouches on it.
Yeah, cool, remember I wastelling you about Gemma, my
little Yorkie.
She actually eats a farmer'sdog, the farmer's dog.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
I remember you said a few episodes and I was like I
was going to mess around with it.
Yeah, I started messing aroundwith it.
They had some home recipes thatyou could do at home.
Yeah, it seems like it's goingpretty good.
Man, I'm going to try it out alittle bit more with a few
different recipes.
And then you gave me the idea,too, I'm going to throw a food
saver in there and I'm going toactually freeze that too.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, I mean, if people think about this, this
farmer's dog I mean the peoplethat run the company they're
genius because one, I mean it'snot that freaking complicated to
cook for a dog.
I mean to cook them real food,right?
Yeah, I mean, that's one of thebig problems in the United
States right now, like we're alltalking about you know, we've
got to get back to eating realfood, stop all this processed

(06:35):
shit, and so now we're startingwith our dogs, but we're
eventually going to get to us.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
You can see it, but you can see, actually, sean, the
farmer's dog, in their energy.
You can see it in their stool.
You can see everything.
Why?
Because their body actuallyutilizes the food.
So you can understand why thatnatural food that we talked
about the spinach, the carrotsand everything like that it's
actually good for them.
So if you're going to have adog, you're going to have a pet

(07:01):
man.
Take care of them.
Gemma, I'm going to always takecare of her like I did Dakota.
We both agree the same.
I mean, gemma, she's going tohave the best, so we're going to
keep it going.
I mean, I might still purchasea little farmer's dog just to
have it in reserve.
But yeah, I won't be purchasingas much as I did before because
it is expensive and if it'sconvenient for you actually

(07:23):
check it out, because it isgreat for your, for your dog,
but you can't.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
You can't do it at home too yeah, I mean, if you
know the portions that you needfor your dog and you can, you
know you got a food saver andyou can just pre-make meals.
I mean you can just, likeyou're doing, like for a lot of
people on diets and stuff youknow, pre-pink those meals, food
, save them and if you want, youwant the nutrients.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
actually they got a nutrient packet too at Farmer's
Dog.
You can buy that and make thefood.
Put the nutrient packet in itif you want more nutrients, If
you don't.
Actually, you know Gemma getsvitamins, so she gets like a gel
vitamin you put on your finger.
She loves it, man, she justeats it up.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Well, that's what I'm saying, Like you can put that
nutrients, like from different,different sources, whether you
get it from your uh, your uh,veterinarian or something like
that, Like there's all thosetypes of things that you also
add into that food for your,your animal that you're taking
care of, whether this is dog,cat, whatever it is that it's
for but, um, just doing yourstuff I'm.
What I'm really surprised isthat there's not more people
doing farmer's dog out there,like other people trying to

(08:23):
start that business, because itsounds like a pretty cool
business, like like the.
You know animal lovers, they'lldo anything.
They'll do anything.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Oh, absolutely, yes, oh yeah, and the.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
the amount of money that's to be made in that
industry is like unbelievable.
But if you can, uh, startmaking the mass uh you know
facility where you're, you'recooking all this stuff up and uh
, and then you have the you knowthe the scientific um portions
for each of those animals andstuff out there.
So you know like, oh, this isyour dog and stuff.

(08:56):
I don't know.
Did you have to go through sometype of questionnaire like the
process of what's your dog ornot really.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
It was more like it was size, how old, you know, um,
breed.
They want to know those thingsyou know, so they can develop.
I mean they have a diet, but Ithink what they do is they have
a basic food form that they haveand how much the dog's going to
eat, because I mean a lot of it.
Truthfully, a lot of it iswater-based.
So I mean even Gemma doesn'tdrink a lot of water.

(09:21):
So I mean even Gemma, Gemmadoesn't drink a lot of water.
So there's a lot of, there mustbe a lot of water inside that
food, because I mean she stillpees like crazy man and she
doesn't get a lot of water.
We have to actually add thewater to her food because it's
almost like you feel guiltyabout, you know, because usually
a dog, you have a thing ofwater out for them.

(09:42):
That's not Gemma.
Gemma doesn't drink it.
She won't drink it justseparately, she has it in the
food.
But again, a lot of those arevegetables and a lot of
water-based foods that are inthere.
So she gets a lot of water fromthat too.
But anyway, farmer's dog man,I'm a full believer in it.
I'm trying it at home, stilldoing it.

(10:04):
I'll report back to you see ifI notice any different in her
weight or how it'd be for foodsaver.
But yeah, I really like it it'sactually really cool.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yeah, you got to keep me posted, man, about that.
That's good.
I'm just kind of interested.
That whole, uh, the wholeprocess and everything,
especially you can do ityourself, but way better.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Hey, I've seen.
Tiktok was back too, right.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
TikTok man is back.
You can download it again.
It's back in the App Store,like.
You know TikTok, you know theybanned it for that one day and
it was like then they took itoff the market and you couldn't
download it anywhere in theUnited States.
So now TikTok just came back to.
They basically told you knowall the platforms out there that

(10:48):
tiktok type app was on that, uh, they weren't going to get that
fine.
You know that's what they wereworried about.
You know them being able as acorporation.
You know you getting that finethat you're gonna have to pay.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
It was something crazy every day that they were
not to be on how many millionsit was but you know, those kids,
man, were happy as as pie,because that's how they get paid
, yeah, so they were loving that.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
But on this note, this is still all temporary.
You know they're still tryingto figure out.
You know trying to get this,you know them to sell it and all
that stuff.
So it's still a process andworks, but definitely it's
backup, working stuff workingstuff.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
But you know, last week, last week we were talking
not to interrupt you, but lastweek we were talking about, like
all the you know, the crazyincidents that had been going on
, uh in uh the airline industry.
We had talked about, uh in theindustry, the incident in uh,
toronto.
But you notice, have younoticed, like a, it's been a,
like an uprise in unrulyuprising, unruly passengers too.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Unruly passengers, man, is it like a season?
Is this a season of them?
You know?
I mean it seems like every yearwe're always talking about more
and more like unruly passengerson the plane, all these
different things that arehappening.
I mean it's.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
Do you ever notice, though?
I mean people that get onairplanes.
They always act like they cando whatever the hell they want
to do.
Right, they do, I mean they.
They sit there and said, youknow, uh, I'm always right and
you're wrong, basically, butmore so there's these ones that
there's the majority of peopleget on a plane.
They want transportation.
They're appreciative, don't getme wrong absolutely phenomenal.

(12:22):
Have them on, and then you getthem ding-dongs.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
Dude, what about that guy that you had?
That was whacked out of meth?

Speaker 2 (12:31):
Oh, that was one of the craziest things, man.
I mean, like I said, we'recoming in from the red eye and
the freaking lights were justgoing off like crazy and we
flipped the cabin lights on.
I had to run down through thecabin.
All these people were screaming.
This guy was just flipped out.
Now I did not know what he wason.
He was just whacked out of hishead.
Everybody was like screamingand yelling.

(12:53):
He came out, was just yellinglike a maniac.
I tackled him, I took him downthe aisle and then he's trying
to bite me and I mean it wasjust nuts.
I mean absolutely crazy.
But find out later on that thisguy was had meth in his system
and you know he was just on thiscrazy high and low and, and,

(13:15):
yeah, and, and the worst part,man, he was HIV positive and
that was, that was the scariestpart.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
He was trying to bite you.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Yeah, he was trying to bite me.
So you, I mean, you don't evenknow.
I mean, people think aboutthings, but you don't think
about that, right, you don'tthink about, like, that
passenger.
And I didn't think about ituntil later I got a call from
the FBI and said look, thisperson was HIV positive and it's
an attempted murder charge, youknow.

(13:42):
And they wanted to talk to meif I wanted to press charges on
this person.
Well, this person was gettinglocked up and they told me that
there's no way that they weregetting out.
And I said that's fine.
You know, I'm not going topress charges or make people go
through things as long as thisperson wasn't going to get out
and they were going to staylocked up.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
But yeah, I mean absolutely freaking crazy
Sometimes what happens, right, Imean you've had incidents on
them too, right, oh yeah, but Iwas just thinking about your
incident here, Like you wereliterally, just because of the
time of day, that was a red-eyeflight.
Yeah, you could have been aTikTok star.

(14:22):
I mean honestly like if thatwould have happened during the
day, there would have beenpeople filming you.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
Oh yeah, absolutely Like that whole thing would have
happened so fast.
All they wanted to do was getthe hell away from this dude.
This dude was freaking nuts.
Now, you know, I've had somecrazy-ass people on my planes.
I mean, folks, let me tell yousomething.
I've had some crazy-ass peopleon my planes.
I mean there was one guy.
He was drinking something outof a bottle.
All he was doing was slamminghis fist down and started it

(14:47):
starts making this like gruntingsound.
Okay, Now we, we had the girlson a plane.
Nobody wanted to be around thisdude.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
These guys that were sitting next to him were looking
at me like deer in theheadlights, man who wants to be
next to somebody that's grunting.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
He's crazy.
I don't know what he's drinking, but you know you walk up there
and you're like hey, how youdoing.
He's like ugh, I'm like whatthe what is that Like?

Speaker 1 (15:13):
is he a caveman, I mean?

Speaker 2 (15:15):
I'm just telling you, this guy was completely whacked
out and these guys are like Ican't move anybody because
there's no seats.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
So these guys, that's always a problem today, like
there's not places to movepeople.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
No, and and, and this guy, this guy.
I was just waiting for this.
I thought for sure that this isgoing to be a you know,
definitely a WWE wrestling matchwith me and him.
But thank God, man, he, just hejust kept grunting.
But you know, okay, in in asearch is a situation likeunting
.
But you know, okay, in asituation like that we can't
have anyone meet the planebecause he didn't do anything

(15:48):
Right.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
He's just disturbing the peace of people.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Believe that, right, yeah, I mean, you're not going
to divert, you're not doinganything.
You can't have the police meetthe plane.
He didn't do nothing.
All he did was meet somebody tomeet the plane because we got a
grunter.
Yeah, slams his hands down andacting like he's aggressive, but
he didn't touch anybody, didn'ttouch me.
So I'm not calling the policeon him.
I mean, I'm just hoping youdon't ever get on my plane again
.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Well, that goes to experience.
We're experienced flightattendants.
We understand what it's actionsthat make you get yourself in
trouble.
You have to do something to getin trouble.
Just because you're behaving acertain way or saying something,
or blah, blah, blah, doesn'tnecessarily mean you're going to
like we're calling the policeon you, whatever.
But that goes to just assessingthe situation.

(16:34):
Us having experience, you know.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Man, I had this guy one time.
Sean, we got delayed and wewere in this little Bohunk
airport, right, we had to landsomewhere because the weather
was bad.
So little Bohunk Airport, right, we had to land somewhere
because the weather was bad.
So we were delayed there andthey had told the passengers,
you can get off the aircraft butyou have to stay in the
boarding area.
So I was telling everybody well, you know, there's the one
ding-dong.
I mean I don't care this guy, hecomes up and they always it's a

(16:56):
stupid comment, right, just adumb, off-the-wall comment, I'll
do whatever the hell I want todo, blah, blah, and that's fine.
I just told you.
I said, if you go into that bar, you go do something and you
don't hear the announcement,you're getting left here, right?
Yeah, I mean that's what we do.
We make announcements and youget left.
Well, we close the door.
He wasn't on board the aircraftand all of a sudden, yeah, well

(17:23):
, he's lucky.
And then he got on the planeand he walks by me and he makes
a stupid comment and I'm like,all right, I'm going to let that
one pass.
So I started doing the demo.
As we're doing the demo, thisguy is lipping F you To you, to
me.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
And I'm looking at him and the girl that is in
front of me, she's looking at melike, oh my God, I don't know
what you're going to do, but itain't going to be good.
And so, about third time, hesaid F you.
I dropped that mic and I walkedback there and I said you know
something?
Just verbalize, let everybodyhear what you're saying.
And he goes what?
And I said everybody aroundhere, you go ahead and say that

(18:01):
and you watch what I do.
So but just go ahead and say Ijust want to hear you, because
see, what it is, is that I don'tcare.
If you want to go ahead and dothat, you want to act a fool.
I want you to verbalize it.
I want you to tell everybodyI'm not going to sit there and
get.
I'm not going to get violentwith you, unless, unless you
tried to do something with me.
But I'm going to tell you thisright, go ahead and say that,
prove yourself.

(18:21):
Prove yourself a man or a woman.
Go ahead and say that and thenwatch my actions, because that
airplane's going to get pulledback up.
You're getting off.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
You're getting off the plane.
I don't care.
You can call me any name in thebook, you can say whatever you
want, and you know this tooright.
You say whatever you want.
You act like a fool, right.
You know and say whatever youwant.
You act like a fool.
You act like that.
Those people on board theaircraft do not deserve to
listen to you.
Go on and on.
They don't deserve to listen tome, and you go on and on.
So the thing is is that one ofus is leaving?

Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah Well, you can't.
You can't interfere with us.
I mean that's that.
You know we're here doing ourjob, doing doing whatever,
whatever his situation was whyhe didn't get back on the plane
and you know him being afreaking ding dong, whatever but
you know you can't interferewith the crew period.
I don't care what you're upsetabout or anything like that.
And if we feel like you'reinterfering with what we're

(19:12):
doing and what she's mouthing,this F you to you during the
demo and all that stuff, youknow interfering with what we
were our job, what we were doing, the demo and all that stuff,
you know interfering with whatwe were our job, what we were
doing.
I mean that's, every airline inthe world is going to be like
you're interfering with us andwe're going to.
We have the right to refuseyour.
You know your service.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
You know you don't like arguing on planes.
I like boring and uneventful.
You do too, I know.
I mean, you know the bestflights for flight attendants
boring and uneventful ones thatwe're not in on a video.
We don't have to explain it toanybody.
It's boring and uneventful, butyou have alcohol on an airplane
dude.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
alcohol is the root to so many problems.
I mean, I mean that's like Ihave stories and stories about,
you know, alcohol and how itaffects us on the, on the
aircraft, I mean alcohol can beis a good, you know.
Okay, you know everybody enjoystheir drink and stuff, all that
stuff.
But when it gets to a pointwhere it starts affecting your

(20:06):
behavior and all that stuff,that's when it's like okay, this
is a time and place and it's asinnocent to like, like how many
times we have, like you know,the bridal party on board and
you know, or the girls goingdown to Florida or the guys
going to Florida or on a golftrip, you know, and everybody's
drinking and you know that's allfine and dandy in certain
atmospheres, Like if you're onthe ground, you're in a bar and

(20:29):
you're having that type ofbehavior and you're getting
crazy and stuff, that's like aspace that they're expecting
that right, right, yeah,absolutely.
But in a public transportationvehicle and we're doing the same
type of behavior and one littlespark or one little comment or
something like that gets spentout of control and now we have

(20:50):
like a situation that they'reaffecting other people.
I mean, it's just not a goodthing.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Well, you're just like me.
I know because, like I said,we've flown enough times that
when a situation comes up, Idon't want it, you don't want it
, but we will take care of itand we'll take care of it and we
don't take it personal.
If you want to act like a fool,I mean, trust me, we don't.
I don't take it personal, Iknow you don't we.
Just what we do is we take theproblem, we eliminate the

(21:23):
problem and then we apologize topeople for having to deal with
the problem, and then we do whatwe take off and we land, that's
it we just do our job Exactly.
We just remove the problem fromthe aircraft, and that happens
on a regular basis.
I remember, talking aboutalcohol, there was this couple
in the back.
I was working the front of theaircraft and, like I said,
there's so many incidents me andSean can talk about daily that
happen on airplanes because ofstupidity.

(21:43):
Well, this, this couple in theback, they were drinking.
Then they got a little bitbelligerent with the flight
attendants.
The flight attendants asked meif I'd come back and I would
talk to this couple.
So they were going down ontheir cruise down to Lauderdale
right, so they're, they're downthere.
They'd probably drank in thebar.
Right, so they're down there.
They probably drank in the bar.
No one noticed that they wereintoxicated.
Let's have an understandingwith this folks, even though

(22:05):
they have bars and airports.
Okay, remember this phrase whenyou fly If you ever appear to
be intoxicated again, listen tothis appear to be intoxicated,
you can't fly.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
Yeah, you can't fly.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
The airline can just reuse your service for sure.
It's black and white.
You cannot fly.
You can be removed from anaircraft until they see that you
do not appear to be intoxicated.
So just because that bar isright there, don't think you can
have four or five and you canget away with that, because
that's not going to happen.
Because if that flightattendant, if that crew member

(22:42):
sees you and you act not like anormal person and you appear to
be intoxicated, they can haveyou removed off the aircraft.
And nobody wants to do that.
But you know, sometimes maybeyou should stop away from that
bar.
Well, this couple didn't, sothey were in the back.
They called me to the back ofthe aircraft and the first thing

(23:03):
that this woman said, Sean,what the hell do you want?
And I looked at her.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
That's such a good intro Lane.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Yeah, what the hell do you want?
I said it's funny, you shouldask that.
I said the flight attendantsasked me to come back here
because you guys were getting alittle bit out of sorts.
And I said I just want to tellyou.
You know, I you can do whateveryou want to do, but I just want
to inform you about, like,what's going to occur if you
keep this up.
And she goes, I'll do whateverthe hell I want to do.
And I said that's fine.

(23:28):
I said, but just realize.
I said if you keep this up, Isaid what I'm going to do is
just listen to me the next fewminutes and then if you want to
do that, you go ahead and dowhatever you want to do, but I'm
going to make sure that allthis stuff happens.
So a real quick rundown is theplane gets met by police
officers, you get put inhandcuffs and your husband or

(23:49):
boyfriend get put in handcuffs.
Now you both will get taken offthe aircraft and you're going to
get arrested, you're going toget fined, you're going to have
federal charges brought againstyou interference of a crew
member's duties.
You're going to have federalcharges brought against you
interference of a crew member'sduties and at that point we have
nothing to say about it.
The police take over and thenyou know, then you're going to
have to have a court date,you're going to have to come
back and you're going to have tocome back down to Florida and

(24:10):
have a court date.
Then you're going to have tohave an attorney, you're going
to fight fines, you're going toprobably be on some list that
says that you are a problem onan aircraft and you're not going
to go to your, your cruise.
You're going to lose out there,you're going to lose out on
your vacation, and all thatbecause you don't want to keep
quiet.
Right, that's your decision,right?

(24:32):
Yeah, it's pretty simple.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Consequences of your actions.
Man, you, just you, you, it'syour choice.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
Yeah, we're just going to react like we're
supposed to, and I told her,yeah, and I just told her all I
had to say to her, Sean.
I said now it's your choice.
If I have to come back here.
If I have to come back here,all those things that I said are
going to happen.
And he looked at me and he saidshe won't say anything.
I said, if I was you, I don'twant to do this.

(25:01):
I love boring and uneventful.
I love saying goodbye to you,hello to you, you know, but I do
not want to have anybody meetthe plane.
I don't want to do reports.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
I don't want the paperwork man we do not want to
do any of that.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
People just understand that we don't want
any of that.
We just want you guys to enjoyyourself, have a good time and
then go on about your way, andthen we'll catch you on the way
back.
But if you're going to be aproblem on an aircraft, right,
you're going to run into thesecrew members like Sean, like me,
like other ones, that you'regoing to get arrested or you're
going to get taken off theaircraft, you're going to get
left, and there's a lot thatgoes with that.

(25:36):
I mean, and just think aboutthat because it, let me tell you
something your damn day willget really bad really quick.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
I'm going to tell you right now, g and I are all
about a good time, exactly.
I mean, we want to have a goodtime, we want you to have a good
time but all that is in withwithin reason, you know.
I mean you just got to do whatyou're supposed to do, have a
good time in moderation and getto your point.

(26:03):
You know B and boom.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
But nobody else wants to hear that crap either,
though Nobody wants to sit thereand say you know God, I got to
worry about this, getting in afight, and you know this right,
they drink too much.
We've had projectile puking onan aircraft that went over rows
of seats.
See, you don't hear anythingabout this, but this person was
intoxicated and what happens isthat they throw up on three and

(26:27):
four rows in front of them.
I'm not kidding, I mean it's,it's unbelievable.
Some of these here.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
I got this story, man , because you just brought up a
whole point of this projectilepuking.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
I mean, this is, this is a, this is a, this is I had
this guy.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
He had passed out on the aircraft and I mean he I'm,
when I say passed out, likewe're shaking him, he is not
responding type of pass out,like he is out to the world, and
so we didn't know if he neededto get off the aircraft at that
time or not.
Because this is back in the daywhen it was like we were kind
of like bouncing as a shuttletype of thing and, um, we didn't

(27:01):
know.
But so we were like, you know,okay, we'll leave him alone,
right, and he's passed out, thathe'll get off when he wakes up,
like or or or.
We're done flying and we'll,you know, have somebody come
take him off, you know.
But, um, all of a sudden youknow we're in flight with this
guy and this guy's passed outand and he starts projectile

(27:22):
vomiting and it is going liketwo and three rows in front of
him.
So imagine sitting in your seatand all of a sudden you feel all
this wet substance hitting theback of your head.
I mean it was absolutelygrotesque.
I mean it was absolutelygrotesque.
I mean, and you know, peoplestart ringing their fly button

(27:43):
and this guy's like it's overand over and over.
This guy's like I can't believehow much he's throwing up and
all I could do is I reach in mypocket and I grabbed some of our
napkins, whatever, and Igrabbed it and I just like slam
it on his face with my barehands, like I was like just to
kind like prevent the projectilehappening.

(28:04):
I mean, most people wouldn'thave done that.
But I mean I just was like Iwas thinking about all the
people that were gettingfreaking dirty from this guy.
But it's come on.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
But here's another thing even that, sean, is that,
as crew members, right?
It's our responsibility torecognize this, especially when
you realize, okay, that someoneis drinking.
You can't just keep feedingthem.
Okay, you can't do that, me andyou don't do that, and I know
you don't do it.
I don't do it If I think thatyou're intoxicated.
You're not getting any more ofthe drink.
You're not.
You're not because you justbecome a bigger problem and it's

(28:43):
going to happen, and it mightnot happen on this flight, but
it's going to happen on the nextflight.
And then, like that, just likethat, if that crew, if a crew
knows that this person isdrinking and they keep feeding
them believe me, people arewatching you and if you give
them more, and then all of asudden, you have a situation
where now it's projectile puking, there's altercations or
whatever it is, you're going tohave a lot of questions to
answer for doing exactly whatyou weren't supposed to do,

(29:05):
because you're not supposed todo that either.
As a crew member, you'resupposed to recognize that.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
You're supposed to recognize that it's the same
thing as a bartender?
Yeah, absolutely, you can'tover-serve.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
But even more than a bartender.
We get these people at 35,000feet.
You better damn well make surethat you got control of that
cabin, because shit can go badinside of a cabin real quick and
you know that if you losecontrol of a cabin and you got
some crazy ass people on there,it can go to hell in a handbag
quick.
You know that.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
I mean, we've had crazy ass people on there and
and and you know, right away,you got to get control of the
situation.
Right, I had a, I had a guy, Ihad a guy in first class.
The guy was reclining the seat,he was drunk and from first
class.
Now I'm working the back andI'm walking up and this guy
starts shoving this guy's seatfrom the back and and one of
flight attendants stillremembers this situation and the
guy the guy in 5a yells at theguy in five or 4a he goes, he

(29:56):
goes, you keep doing that, hegoes.
I'm gonna kick your fucking ass.
Right, excuse my, but that'sexactly what it said.
And I told him.
I said you ain't kickinganybody's ass.
And in that moment, right, yougot one or two ways.
You can be really calm aboutthis, or you shut it down.
If you do not get control of it, you're going to have a bad
situation.
We get crazy people.

(30:17):
Folks, sometimes you have todeal with it a little bit
differently.
Most of the time it's fine, youcan talk your way through it,
but, man, we get some crazysituations.
38 years plus of flying, you'regoing to get a lot of
situations on board the aircraft.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
We don't have enough time even if we kept this
podcast going for a long time ofall the talk about all the
different stories.
But you know what flightattendants are?
We?
We are highly trained indiffusing situations.
You don't have to be a big guy,you know to be, you know, uh,
it doesn't matter what your sizeis and all this stuff, but we
are trained to diffuse thesituation and that's that's
what's going to happen.
We're going to shut down yourparty.
We're going to shut downwhatever.
What's what's happening orwhatever's causing this?
Uh, uh, commotion or whateveron the aircraft Cause we got

(31:04):
them in control.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
Best thing to do is diffuse and then don't stoke it,
because you always get, there'salways someone that wants to
stoke it, right by a look orsomething like that.
Don't stoke it If you.
If you put out that fire, don'tgo stoking it again, man, Just
leave it alone.
Get them people to theirdestination, Let them go on
about their ways.
Nobody gets arrested.
We don't have to do reports.
Everybody's happy, so you know.

(31:27):
But anyway, when I was readingthis, I'd seen in 2024, man,
there was a big increase ofunruly passengers again.
But just realize this as apassenger, you can be fined just
as a general fine from the fed.
Passenger, you can be finedjust as a general fine from from
the feds.
You can be fined up at $37,000.
Now, that's just a general fine.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
Yeah, I mean, it's just not worth it.
It's not.
It's not this place, a place ata time to be doing this type of
behavior.
But anyways, let's move on.
Man, we are, you know, there isall kinds of stuff happening in
the news and one of theairlines, one of the discount
airlines for the first time intheir career history, just laid

(32:07):
off 1750 employees.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
That's a lot.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
And one of the employees was the vice president
of the company.
Really, yeah, I mean this isall like they're going from
corporate and like this iscorporate layoffs.
So it's not like frontline,it's not the flight attendants,
it's not the pilots.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
They didn't give an explanation right yeah, I don't
know what the.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
I actually have no idea why they're downsizing, but
this is the first time everthat they've been laid off and
you know it's very interestingto see that.
You know this isn't justhappening in big corporations
and all this stuff.
Small businesses and stuff, andyou know smaller airlines too.
They get affected by theselayoffs and the change of.
You know how we do business.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
But it's got to keep.
You got to keep in competition,right.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Yeah, it's kind of like you know.
You know, right now Trump iskind of right-sizing the
government.
Right, I mean corporations.
He's treating the governmentjust like a business.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
So yeah, but we said that before you know me and you
have had this conversationnumerous times I've said it
before the problem with ourcountry is our country is ran by
politicians and not businesspeople.
The United States is one of thebiggest businesses that there
is.
You need somebody that knowscontracts, knows what to do, not

(33:24):
a politician that just makesfreaking bull crap promises, but
you need somebody that actuallyknows how to run a big company
and cares about doing it.
Because we've had politiciansfor years, and I'm not saying
sides, I'm saying politicians,politicians, and they jacked it
all up.
They've jacked it up and youneed business people.

(33:44):
You need business people.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
The most amazing thing to me is that, like in in
our country, there's so manyintelligent business people,
like you know, but thoseintelligent people are smart
enough to not be in politics.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
Yeah, yeah, because of politics.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
Right, and then you get the mother-bringer that's
out there right now, like Trump.
That's like.
You know what I'm going to takeon it.
He don't need to do this.
No, no.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
If you go back to his early interview years ago, he
never wanted to actually run forpresident when he was young, I
mean, and that's when he wasstill a multimillionaire.
Back then he didn't want to.
But it's kind of ironic now inthe position that he's in and
he's surrounded by all businesspeople, Right, Right, I mean.
But everybody thinks it's therefor their benefit.

(34:26):
Well, we'll see, I mean.
But you know, I mean as far aswith this discount carrier and
what's going on, I mean, well, Ithink that's going to be a
future conversation.
We're going to, you know, readabout that and see exactly where
they're going with that.

Speaker 1 (34:41):
Yeah, we're going to read about that and see exactly
where they're going with that.
Yeah, I mean there's still likeall these mergers pending right
now, trying to figure out who'sgoing to be merging with
whether, like the discountcarriers and stuff, trying to
figure out what they're going tobe doing.
I mean there's more mergers tocome.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
Oh yeah, I think the next five years is going to lay
out a plan in the industry.
I mean might be wrong, but Isay the next five years there's
going to be a lot of changes.
Hey, let's go through some funfacts.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
Fun facts man 1957 was a Scandinavian airlines, uh,
created his first route fromEurope to the far East, and what
was really cool about thisroute is it was the first line
route that went directly overthe North pole.
Uh, and I thought this was likereally fascinating.
When I saw this in this funfacts I was like, wow, 1957 is

(35:27):
when that happened.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
Now did it say what kind of plane it was?

Speaker 1 (35:31):
Yeah, it didn't say what type of plane, but it was
interesting to me because I'mlike today, in today's world,
like we have planes in ourcompany that we fly over the
polar cap right now, right, andwhen we fly over the polar cap,
um, you know, we plan foreverything, you know we plan for
disaster, we plan for, you know, uneventful things happening,

(35:52):
and so the pilots have polarsuits on our planes and people,
people don't know thisinformation and you know like
like.
Why would you have a polar suit?
Well, if you have to land at anairport that's up close to the
North Pole and you have to goand walk around the aircraft and
get the aircraft back in theair, better have a polar suit,

(36:14):
you better have that damn polarsuit because this is going to be
cold as hell out there.

Speaker 2 (36:19):
Remember the Shining?
Yeah, you look like JackNicholson out in the Shining
Right, but with a pilot's hat on.

Speaker 1 (36:27):
Yeah, I mean like it's funny.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
But anyway, you know the captain ain't doing a walk
around there and be like oh hell, no, you're going.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
But do you think this first flight had a polar suit,
or did they even think about it?

Speaker 2 (36:39):
Oh.
I can't even imagine the 1957,I mean you know you kind of
wonder sometimes, even with theairplanes, if, uh, you know how
cold it was on the inside ofthose airplanes.
Fine, you know.
I mean, I mean you just got youkind of wonder because the
insulation, the way theairplanes were made, yeah, the
height of where they'resustained.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
You know, yeah, exactly, they didn't go as high
as we go now in these days,right, but still, there's still
the the temperature, you know, Imean the way temperature was I
mean, it's cold I imagine it'scold because it's cold outside
you don't have to fly it toohigh to get over to north pole
to be cold.
No, hell, no, you just hell.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
You said you sit in a passenger seat today and you're
, you're by the window.
I mean it's, it'll get cold.
Right, planes get cold, man.
I mean it's like 60 degreebelow zero out there, anytime,
anytime you're on a plane andyou're on that like close to one
of the exits.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Yeah, it's colder.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
Next, to the right, yeah, right, yeah it is.

Speaker 1 (37:29):
It is.
It's cold, crazy.
And unless you're on a like the, the bigger planes, like the
wide bodies and stuff, a lot ofthem have heating uh systems
within the doors and stuff likethat.
So they they don't.
They're not as cold, but mostthe planes, the majority of
those narrow body planes that wefly all over the united states,
and those millions of flightsevery year, those are freaking.
You know they're, they're cold,yeah yeah anyways, here's

(37:50):
another one.
Uh, you're gonna love this.
February 25th is the day weofficially celebrate chocolate
covered nut day would that belike pecan clusters, um sure
that That'd be good.
Dude any type ofchocolate-covered nuts.
It's the official day of it.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
Put some little pecan clusters.
I'd kill those.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, chocolate-covered nuts is one of
my favorites man.
I mean, I love somechocolate-covered nuts, Like any
type of peanuts, likedouble-dipped chocolate peanuts.
I like covered raisins too,though Raisins, oh yeah, but
that's not today, I know.

Speaker 2 (38:30):
I still like them.
Today is all about goobers.
Hey, you know what happened in1983?
What's that?
Michael Jackson's albumThriller, thriller Hit number
one on the Billboard Dude.
You know what that shit was?
A bomb.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
You got to admit, man , billboard dude, you know what
that shit was a bomb.
You gotta admit, man.
Yeah, how old were you, how oldwere we, like um 1983 so I was.
I was a junior in high school Igraduated high school that year
and um, so I was 17 years oldand, wow, yeah, that was.
I knows like what state of lifeyou're in during Thriller,

(39:07):
right?

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Okay, what was the guy's name that did the
voiceover on that, boris, was it?
No no no, vincent, vincent, didyou ever see that?
Okay, they offered him apercentage of what Thriller sold
to do it first of all, and heturned it down.
Yeah, I seen this one time theyoffered him a percentage of

(39:31):
Thriller and he had turned itdown for a flat rate, because he
said how do I know if this isgoing to take off and if people
would actually even listen tothis?
And so he actually turned downthe percentage of that.
Now talk about a big damnmistake.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
Dude, it's one of those hindsight things you know,
like you're like what?
Why wouldn't you take a pieceof it?

Speaker 2 (40:00):
The whole time that you're alive.
You're sitting there sayingthat was the dumbest damn thing
I ever did.
Thriller, man, that thing wentcrazy.
Today, though, I mean right,they still, they, they still do
thriller on halloween.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
They do a bunch of it , yeah, yeah then so the guy,
yeah, the guy's name was vincentprice and he uh uh, he had that
like he was, he always had that.
It's like all those scary uhvoices back in the day monster
movies and stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah, he had a cool voice, but yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Thriller was.
Thriller was like that just waslike a whole new thing, Like
when Michael Jackson did thatand the dance came out and like
that, that kind of like was likethat first start of those like
you know group dances, likeeverybody you know that started
that.
Like you, like everybody youknow that started at.
Like you know, like that, whatdid they call that?
That mob dancing and stuff likethat Flash dancing.

(40:47):
Yeah, whatever it's like youknow.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
That was cool, though him in that theater and all of
a sudden he turned into like azombie type.
That was pretty sweet.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
The whole aspect.
1983, that happened.
Anyways, 2018, this is crazy.
Singer Barbra Streisandannounced that she had her pet
dog clone twice.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
That doesn't surprise me.

Speaker 1 (41:14):
Talk about being attached to something.
It's like you know.
I mean, how many times have wehad a dog or animal in our life
that we absolutely loved, but toclone them again, like when you
clone them, do you give themthe same name?

Speaker 2 (41:34):
I'm sitting there thinking to myself why?
But then again I'm thinkingBarbra Streisand again.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
Fifi one, Fifi two, Fifi three.
Yeah, that's some crazy stuff.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Again, I got nothing.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
Go ahead yeah 1990, the New Zealand Navy ended its
daily allowance to sailors ofhaving rum every day.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
Did you know?
Shortly after that, they losthalf of them.
How's that they left you know?
Damn the sailors man, they'relike no hell.
No, no, no, no.
This part of the damn militaryman.
First of all, I was looking atit as if they had pictures of it
I drew you into that?

Speaker 1 (42:18):
Sailors like lining up and they were like like they
had like a ladle dipping into acup, giving them their daily
allowance of rum.
Like I don't even know what thepurpose of this is.
Like every day I get you knowthis is this job so shitty, I
need to get drunk, type of thing.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
Could you imagine?
Just signed up and you'resitting there thinking, man, I'm
going to leave.
And what did you just say?
No more rum, no more run.
What, oh hell, no, oh, hell, no, no, no, no, no.
Where's my paper at?
Because I know that there's aclause against my ass.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
I signed up for rum every day.

Speaker 2 (42:47):
Yeah, exactly Get my ass out of this.
All right, go to the next one.

Speaker 1 (42:51):
I mean come on this is crazy.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
That's pretty funny.

Speaker 1 (42:53):
Yeah, so then the other thing that's really cool
this week is in 1872, thatYellowstone National Park park

You know our generations andstuff.
Obviously we're 18.
Yellowstone's hugestone is huge, huge, huge, but it's I mean
that whole.
Have you seen any of theepisodes of Kevin Costner doing

great actor and the whole nineyards I mean.
But just the information aboutthat he has about Yellowstone

I mean I started looking atthis thing and I told my wife.

information and stuff.
But I mean I just so much.

We got so many national parks though, man, I
mean, you know you could spendyour whole lifetime You're not

You wouldn't cover them Even ifyou spend a lifetime.
You're not going to cover allthe national parks.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
I got this poster here.
It was in my office.
Now that my office has beenmoved temporarily, but I got
this poster that is like thisscratch-off poster and so every
time you go to a national park,you can scratch off the national
park, right, yeah, dude, I'veonly been like and I don't know,
we have like 50 or somethinglike that.
I've only been like 17 that'swhat I said.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
There's no way.
I mean and and you and you workfor an airline, I mean like
it's, it's impossible, because Imean you, that's, that's really
you got to make it a big thingfor you.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
Yeah, it's not impossible, no, but it is hard
to do to go see all these parts?

Speaker 2 (45:08):
It's not probable but , it's something I like.
That part with you, it's notimpossible.
Yeah, yeah, but don't.
Don't limit yourself.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Probably, but uh, yeah, one of the things I got to
do is get out here and go tothese natural parts.
I things I gotta do is get outhere and go to these national
parks.
I mean, speaking about nationalparks, let's talk about our,
our destination this week.
The destination is baltimore,baltimore, maryland, baltimore.
Man, every time we lay overthere, have you laid over any

(45:37):
place other than the innerharbor?
No, yeah, the inner harbor.
I mean for years and years andyears I mean a whole entire
career that I've been flying 35years I've always stayed in
inner harbor, always, probablywill.
It's the spot to go to.
I mean, it's the central heartof, uh, what's happening down in
, uh, baltimore.
I'm not super familiar withbaltimore city, so I'm gonna
only talk about the things Iknow about.

(45:59):
But in the inner harbor there'sthree museums there, three big
ones, uh the maryland sciencecenter, the national aquarium
and the american visionary artsmuseum.
Um, it's all within this harborarea, but it was surrounding
the harbor too.
There's all these like foodplaces and stores and, um,
there's actually um, the uh, thetrade centers there too.

(46:21):
I mean there's all this coolstuff, but it's just a really
cool area to go to Baltimore, Imean-.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
That's what's great.
You go down there, though, andyou just want to spend the day,
have some lunch and stuff somany cool things to do.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
Yeah, just in one small area, just walking around
that area and everything.
I mean I normally walk aroundthe piers and stuff and check
out all the different uh theshops and stuff there.
Um, the uh other thing thatbaltimore is known for is, uh,
fort henry, and that's the homeof the star spangled banner.
So that's where, uh, francisford scott had, or francis scott

(46:57):
key, I'm sorry um wrote thenational anthem and uh, and
about us repelling the british.

Speaker 2 (47:03):
Like we repelled Canada last week.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
You going to write a song about it.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
I just had to throw that in there.
I did like I love that little,that bout between USA hockey and
Canada.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's kindof funny, you just brought that
up, but go ahead.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
Yeah, so Baltimore, baltimore.
There's a lot of history there.
A lot of you know significance.
Baltimore's also known forbeing a.
It used to be like a haven forpirates.
So they got an area therethat's that's this like pirate,
you can go experience all thisbe a pirate for a day, type of
thing, and they got bars and allkinds of stuff.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
Of course they got didn't know that one Right.
Actually, I didn't know thatone at all.

Speaker 1 (47:41):
But Baltimore's gotten some cool history and
stuff.
But in in addition to that, youknow you're going to talk about
the food, like food inBaltimore, like when you go to
Baltimore, crabs I mean,everybody wants to get some
Maryland crabs, right.
I mean, and if you're going toreally experience Baltimore,
have you ever done where you goin and they pour the crabs on

(48:02):
the table and you got a hammerand you're breaking the crabs
and all that stuff?

Speaker 2 (48:06):
Have you ever done that?

Speaker 1 (48:08):
Dude, it's an experience.
I mean, if you go to Baltimore,I would highly recommend one
meal.
Go do it, go teach yourself.
The restaurants are teaching.
One of the restaurants there isNick's Fish House and they got
the picnic tables.
They got it covered withbutcher block paper and you

(48:30):
order these crabs and they dumpthe boiled crabs out on the
thing.
They got mallets there andthere's a whole.
You know they'll teach you onhow to like, take apart the crab
and how to eat the crab andeverything.
It's an experience, man.
But if you like crab and I lovecrab you crab eater oh yeah,
and I shoot.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
I love all that, and the only thing I don't like is
mushrooms, so I'm good Mushrooms.
No mushrooms or crabs, onlything I don't like.

Speaker 1 (48:49):
So yeah, as far as crab, yeah, but yeah they'll
throw them on the table when youcrack them and hit them with
the hammer and peel off theshell and all that stuff.
Like it's an experience, Idefinitely, if you get a chance
to be in that area or be inMaryland, really, uh, get some
crabs and experience that wholeprocess, it's cool.
But another area that is likereally, really cool, that's just

(49:10):
down the street, that's outsidethe Harbor.
Like you walk out, there's thiswhole neighborhood and it's
little Italy.

Speaker 2 (49:16):
That's you.
I don't care if there's alittle Italy, any in any damn
city he's going to find it, dude, this little Italy area has all
kinds of restaurants.

Speaker 1 (49:27):
I'm talking, you name it.
They got all these pasta placesmaking fresh made pasta.
They got all different types ofand because little Italy is
like this concentration of food,like just surrounding it,
anywhere outside of that wholeentire neighborhood, there's
just more and more food.
If you open up a map, googleEarth, it, you're going to see
so many different restaurants.

(49:48):
It's unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (49:48):
That's one thing I can say about with you, is that
a long time ago, sean, like whenwe were eating Italian food one
time and I was like you know,this tastes like Italian.
He's like this shit's notItalian.
And then he was like Italianfood is tomato-based.
This is like a sugar-basedsauce.

(50:09):
Yeah, this is Americanized, soyeah, so he introduced me to
actually true Italian, and man,what a big-ass difference.
Yeah, man, I love that.

Speaker 1 (50:17):
Well, it's like farmer's dog.

Speaker 2 (50:19):
Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
It's us getting back to eating food that's real,
natural Tastes, like Italy.
There's a different taste to itand the flavor's amazing.
When you start getting intoflavors of food when it's
actually real food, come on,it's hard to go back.

Speaker 2 (50:35):
Yeah, I still remember that same day that you
told me they're like that shitis not Italian.
And you're right, though I meanI was looking at you like well,
of course it is.
It's spaghetti sauce.
No, that's crap.
And ever since then it's likeI'm stuck on true Italian
tomato-based sauces.
Yeah, that's it right there.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
Yeah, man.
Anyways, Baltimore it's anexperience.
I mean, they got all the proteams there and stuff like that
too too, to go visit and seegames and all that stuff, Camden
Field, all that stuff.
But get to Baltimore, it'sreally cool.

Speaker 2 (51:11):
Very cool.

Speaker 1 (51:14):
So, wrapping up for the day, we're going to do our
quote here.
The quote today is a little bit, it's just a simple quote.
The sky is not the limpet, it'sjust the beginning.
You know, yep, I mean.
It's just the beginning.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
You know, yep, I mean it's true, though I mean, you
know, that's the one thing Ialways love.
This saying, too, is like whenyou fall down, fall on your back
, because when you look up,right, there's only one way to
go, because we talk about thatsometimes in life and we've both
been dealing with that Shitgoes wrong, right?
So take a look up, man.
Sky is the limit, justbeginning of what's going to

(51:47):
happen.
Sky is not the limit.
Well, it's Well.
Yeah, I guess it is.
It's not the limit, man.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
You don't limit yourself.
That's the whole point of it.
It's just, don't limit it.
It's just the beginning,beginning.
