Speaker 1 (02:24):
It's just so hot, it's so hot, I mean, and people
are outside and you end the daywith the fireworks and
everybody's done before thosestart.
You know?

What do they have at gasstations, like that beer cave or

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Oh yeah, Some places where you can walk in it, yeah.
Yeah, some of the grocerystores have that.
I don't buy beer.
Yeah, stores have that, I don'tbuy beer, yeah, but, um, we're
just gonna go in here and play agame of dominoes.
We're gonna cool off a minute.
We've been outside, we're aboutto go watch fireworks, so I
have to recalibrate.
Um, yeah, yeah anyway.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Well, I did find um, let's drop some knowledge.
Uh, I found a 50 facts aboutthe fourth of july.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Because I was scrolling.
Yeah Well, I guess on theinternet, I'm not on the medias,
but I was scrolling, I was likeoh the 4th is coming up.
I want to see if I knew any ofthese.
Yeah, yeah or let me say, didnot know any of these.
So I'm not going to read out 50facts, because it's hot.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Ain't nobody got time for that, and everybody's
waiting on fireworks.
Yeah, ain't, nobody on a boatgoing.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Did you hear number 32?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
No, they're like is my hot dog done yet?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, but a couple I thought were interesting.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
One was you're not supposed to wear American flags.
That really puts Old Navy in anuncomfortable position remember
like forever.
It was like family t-shirts,old navy 1997, 19 and that had
the year on them.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Yeah, they still get the whole collection, tank tops,
everything muscle shirts.
It's a flag code and it statesthe flag should never be used as
wearing apparel, bedding ordrapery.
I don't know who's got Americanflag drapes.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
I don't know, that's next level.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Or bedding.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Bedding.
Wow, yeah, I don't get that one.
Yeah, I don't either.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
But also another fact is every Major League Baseball
team will be playing on the 4thof July.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Really.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So if you need something to do for eight hours
while you're eating your hotdogs, there's a baseball game.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Right, that's kind of slow and not very stressful.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
With a steady pace.
Yeah, can you tell I'm not abaseball fan.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
This game started in 1776.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's still going, it's in the third inning.
The skeletons with uniforms onare the team Wow.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Well, here's another one.
I'm not numbering these becausenobody cares.
No, no, we're just hitting thehighlights this one seemed, I'm
going to say, like common sense.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Fireworks are a huge business.
You think I'm going to say yeah, in case you didn't know.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, just come to my house and I live in Nashville
proper, but don't nobody care.
Yeah, yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Proper, but don't nobody care.
Yeah, yeah, it's crazy.
It says 600 million infireworks imports.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
That seems low.
I was going to say that too.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Which I will say Nashville, the one they do
downtown.
I looked it up, it seems lowhere.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Half a million.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh, that doesn't seem right.
That doesn't seem right.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Because that thing lasts for 30.
I don't know where they'regetting their fireworks.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, but it ain't Big Bob's on like I-24 going to
Chattanooga or something likethat?
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Yeah, it ain't.
What was it?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Crazy Bills, or whatever it ain't in that
trailer, no, or the side of theroad stand, yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
If you shot fireworks for 40 minutes and you bought
them at Crazy Bills or Eddie'sor whatever it was, yeah.
That would cost you like $3billion.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
But yeah, they shoot a lot.
Yeah, I don't know they shootso many fireworks you can't see
them, it's just smoke.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yeah, like at the end Speaking of hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
And burgers and sweating while cooking them.
Another one is it saysAmericans spend close to $10
billion on Fourth of July food.
I believe that that's inflation.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
It's when everybody goes and buys meat.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
That's true.
Yeah, Fourth of July is meat,yeah it's just meat.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
It's like barbecue ribs steaks.
Y'all want some grilled chicken.
Who wants some shrimp kebabs?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
I mean it's everything, forrest Gump.
It's all of it.
It's just meat and fruit and abag of chips.
Yeah, you got some Lay's potatochips.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That's about.
All the heat you can take iswith meat, and then you got to
eat something cold.
And a watermelon yeah, ooh, icecold watermelon.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Like an ice cold watermelon.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Ooh, that's good.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Why are we?
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Yeah, man, I want some watermelon right now.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Watermelon always sounds delicious.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
And then you're like it's refreshing.
And you gotta pick it out andit's ginormous, I don't do it.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
And then did you put it in the fridge.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
I forgot.
Yeah, just eat an ice cube witheach bite.
It'll be the same thing.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
But it'll be the same thing.
I'm at the age now.
I'm like, if I want it, I'mgetting a pre-cut.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
I know, oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
It's bougie.
Yeah, yeah, I don't buy itoften.
I'm not buying it like all thetime, but I'm not hauling a huge
watermelon and then, becauseyou want to wash it off before
you cut it, you know what I'msaying yeah, and, and.
Then you got on the counter andwho's got a cutting board that
big?
What kind of knife are we usinghere?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
You're always trying to put it on a paper plate.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Can you go get the home light chainsaw?
You know, let's cut it outside.
Yeah, there'll be no ants afterthat.
You know what I'm saying?
It's a whole thing.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I don't know.
And to people I know differentpeople put stuff on a watermelon
.
Well, we do know.
And to people I know differentpeople put stuff on a watermelon
.
Speaker 1 (08:45):

It's really offensive .
Now.
It's stained, oh my gosh.
But I do love a good watermelon.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Yeah, anyway, yeah Well, I wonder how much of that
$10 billion is watermelons.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I don't know, but now I want a burger.
Speaker 2 (09:41):

Speaker 1 (09:46):
It's on the internet.
Yeah, it's on the internet.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
It's got to be true, it is true 50 million Americans
travel more than 50 miles, whichwe did when this comes out,
because we drove eight hours.

Thing?
Speaker 2 (10:33):

Little neighborhoods do them.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
But you know, like I get a New Year's Eve if you want
to bundle up and do thatbusiness, whatever.
Or Thanksgiving Day parade,Macy's Day, whatever it's called
, but Fourth of July parade.
I feel like the only reasonpeople are there is because they
have young kids.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
It's just little.
It's too hot.
It's just little.
Bikes with red, white and bluestreamers, everybody's got a
little bitty flag and it's just.

three streets over.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Oh, we're going to melt three streets over.
Oh my gosh.
Also it's all food related, Iknow as it should be.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Americans consume about 150 million hot dogs per
year.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh so this has nothing to do with the fourth.
Yeah, so I don't know whythat's on this.
Probably 100 million of themare on the fourth.
Do you eat hot dogs?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Not anymore.
I used to.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Do you eat beef ones or turkey dogs?

I've transitioned to turkey dogs and now I haven't
had a hot dog in like two orthree years.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
So it's just a mind thing.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
It's like you can't do it.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
If I haven't eaten in four days and somebody gives me
a hot dog, I'm just gonna belike oops.

I ain't eating it, no okay Ican't do it, it's just a mental
block now see, I, I'm, I'm gonnabe honest.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
I do like 70% mustard .
We are hungry, by the way.
Speaker 2 (12:33):

This data came from theNational Hot Dog and Sausage
Council, which I don't know.

Joey Chestnut and two otherpeople I don't know?
The hot dog eating dude yeah, Ithink.
150 million.
Speaker 1 (12:48):

I think 150 million hot dogs.
He eats 50 million of them.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Good grief.
How does he show up again everyyear?
I expect him to be dead.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
He does that's.
All he does is eatingcompetitions.
So he does that like once ayear, but then he does, you know
, the Joe Schmo barbecue contest.
He just goes around and eats.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Okay, is he cleansing or something after that?
Juice, cleanse Fasting.

How old is that guy?
I don't know.
We'll look it up, yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Also, there have been 27 different official versions
of the flag.
I thought there was like threeor four.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yeah, I guess I didn't totally realize that 27?
.
Well, they kept adding stuff.
Make a decision.
Speaker 2 (13:42):

Speaker 1 (13:42):
We're going to stop right here.
If we add another island, whocares?
We add another island?
Who?
Speaker 2 (13:49):

And then well, this one, theAmerican flag's traditional
triangle fold, was meant toevoke a three-cornered hat, like
the kind George Washington wore.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'm trying to oh this one so everybody knows the

Speaker 2 (18:19):
Okay, this one I thought was smart.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
So Thomas Jefferson believed that a new Constitution
should be written every 19years.
Speaker 1 (18:29):

progress.
And like yeah, yeah, I meanlike nice, great, because we
don't want to be like we were.
I mean lots of ways.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
19 seems like a lot of rewriting, but it's probably
should be more than ever.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Like to hunt, you know, yeah well, it's the time
from a person when they're bornto their young adulthood that
you know you've.
There's been a whole nothercrop of adults that are about to
go out to the world, collegework, whatever we didn't have
electricity right I know, andthey're just like using quills
and yeah, let's keep this thesame forever and ever.
(19:43):

Speaker 2 (19:55):
Let's just keep it the way it is.
Nothing will ever change.
People are always going to ridehorses.

Life is like hold my beer.
Let me give you some of this AIfor a minute.
Have you heard of AI?

Yeah, four times a century yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:21):

Small towns spend $8,000 to$15,000 on 4th of July.

There was 50, so we saved y'all.
It's a tradition to eat salmonon the 4th of July in New
(20:45):
England.
You know where I'm to eatsalmon on the 4th of July in New
England.
You know where I'm not going tocelebrate the 4th of July, new
England Alongside peas.
The tradition likely dates backto the fact that peas ripened
at the same time as the fish.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Fish don't ripen.
Who wrote?
Speaker 2 (21:01):
this.
This needs to get revised every19 years.
That's making the two a goodpairing around the same time.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
No, you're going to be sick as a dog because it's
going to sit out in the sun,it's going to grow bacteria and
then you're going to eat it andyou're going to be in the ER.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Put that salmon in a windowsill until it ripens.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I've done grilling the salmon.
You and me sit it here in thesun until the hot dogs are done.
It's got a good bacteria goingon it, yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah, I don't want fish.
Speaker 2 (21:33):

like a mix of chili powder,cumin and coriander.

don't want no taco taste on mywatermelon.
Okay, cumin is like watermelon,I mean taco, but yeah, yeah, we
weren't crazy Salt A classicpairing Salt enhances watermelon
sweetness and adds acontrasting salty note.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
You think Flaky sea salt is often recommended for
its texture.
Excuse me Well, we ain't doingthat.
No.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
But it's not as redneck as we thought, look at
that no Look at us Lime juice orlemon juice.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I'd go lime.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Lime is really good yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Citrus juice provides a bright, tangy counterpoint to
the sweetness of watermelon.
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (24:18):

Speaker 1 (24:39):
No, I ain't doing no syrup on my watermelon, it's
already sweet.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
If I was eating pancakes and I had watermelon on
the side and syrup got on mywatermelon.
I'd be like man, I know.
My watermelon's ruined.
Yes.

So I will say this for peoplewith dogs oh yeah.
Rip Nilla.
Our dog is no longer with us,but for years we'd have to call
and get the Xanax and anothermedicine.
(25:23):
There wasn't really enoughmedicine to calm her down from
the fireworks.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
But I guess if you're listening to this and your dog
needs medicine, it's too latebecause your vet is closed.
But good luck.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Get some earmuffs.
Speaker 1 (25:40):

Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Pretty much.
I don't rank my holidays.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
But Fourth of July is probably in my top 25.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
It's just so hot, it's so hot, I mean, and people
are outside and you end the daywith the fireworks and
everybody's done before thosestart.
You know?
Yeah, because we're exhaustedand we all need a Gatorade IV.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Yeah, I mean if Christmas was on July 4th and
the tree was in the backyard itwouldn't be high on my list
either.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
No, no.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Man, yeah, it's just hot.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
But find shade wherever you're at.
Yeah, a box fan Drink a waterevery now and then.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Stay hydrated.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Take a trip to Alaska .
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I don't know, it's probably hot there.
Just go get the bag of iceoutside the Mapco.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yeah, take it home, go in that.
What do they have at gasstations, like that beer cave or
whatever, you know, when youlike.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Oh yeah, Some places where you can walk in it, yeah.
Yeah, some of the grocerystores have that.
I don't buy beer.
Yeah, stores have that, I don'tbuy beer, yeah, but, um, we're
just gonna go in here and play agame of dominoes.
We're gonna cool off a minute.
We've been outside, we're aboutto go watch fireworks, so I
have to recalibrate.
Um, yeah, yeah anyway.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Well, I did find um, let's drop some knowledge.
Uh, I found a 50 facts aboutthe fourth of july.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Because I was scrolling.
Yeah Well, I guess on theinternet, I'm not on the medias,
but I was scrolling, I was likeoh the 4th is coming up.
I want to see if I knew any ofthese.
Yeah, yeah or let me say, didnot know any of these.
So I'm not going to read out 50facts, because it's hot.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Ain't nobody got time for that, and everybody's
waiting on fireworks.
Yeah, ain't, nobody on a boatgoing.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Did you hear number 32?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
No, they're like is my hot dog done yet?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, but a couple I thought were interesting.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
One was you're not supposed to wear American flags.
That really puts Old Navy in anuncomfortable position remember
like forever.
It was like family t-shirts,old navy 1997, 19 and that had
the year on them.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Yeah, they still get the whole collection, tank tops,
everything muscle shirts.
It's a flag code and it statesthe flag should never be used as
wearing apparel, bedding ordrapery.
I don't know who's got Americanflag drapes.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
I don't know, that's next level.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Or bedding.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Bedding.
Wow, yeah, I don't get that one.
Yeah, I don't either.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
But also another fact is every Major League Baseball
team will be playing on the 4thof July.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Really.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So if you need something to do for eight hours
while you're eating your hotdogs, there's a baseball game.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Right, that's kind of slow and not very stressful.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
With a steady pace.
Yeah, can you tell I'm not abaseball fan.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
This game started in 1776.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's still going, it's in the third inning.
The skeletons with uniforms onare the team Wow.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Well, here's another one.
I'm not numbering these becausenobody cares.
No, no, we're just hitting thehighlights this one seemed, I'm
going to say, like common sense.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Fireworks are a huge business.
You think I'm going to say yeah, in case you didn't know.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, just come to my house and I live in Nashville
proper, but don't nobody care.
Yeah, yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Proper, but don't nobody care.
Yeah, yeah, it's crazy.
It says 600 million infireworks imports.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
That seems low.
I was going to say that too.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Which I will say Nashville, the one they do
downtown.
I looked it up, it seems lowhere.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Half a million.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh, that doesn't seem right.
That doesn't seem right.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Because that thing lasts for 30.
I don't know where they'regetting their fireworks.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, but it ain't Big Bob's on like I-24 going to
Chattanooga or something likethat?
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Yeah, it ain't.
What was it?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Crazy Bills, or whatever it ain't in that
trailer, no, or the side of theroad stand, yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
If you shot fireworks for 40 minutes and you bought
them at Crazy Bills or Eddie'sor whatever it was, yeah.
That would cost you like $3billion.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
But yeah, they shoot a lot.
Yeah, I don't know they shootso many fireworks you can't see
them, it's just smoke.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yeah, like at the end Speaking of hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
And burgers and sweating while cooking them.
Another one is it saysAmericans spend close to $10
billion on Fourth of July food.
I believe that that's inflation.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
It's when everybody goes and buys meat.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
That's true.
Yeah, Fourth of July is meat,yeah it's just meat.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
It's like barbecue ribs steaks.
Y'all want some grilled chicken.
Who wants some shrimp kebabs?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
I mean it's everything, forrest Gump.
It's all of it.
It's just meat and fruit and abag of chips.
Yeah, you got some Lay's potatochips.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That's about.
All the heat you can take iswith meat, and then you got to
eat something cold.
And a watermelon yeah, ooh, icecold watermelon.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Like an ice cold watermelon.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Ooh, that's good.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Why are we?
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Yeah, man, I want some watermelon right now.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Watermelon always sounds delicious.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
And then you're like it's refreshing.
And you gotta pick it out andit's ginormous, I don't do it.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
And then did you put it in the fridge.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
I forgot.
Yeah, just eat an ice cube witheach bite.
It'll be the same thing.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
But it'll be the same thing.
I'm at the age now.
I'm like, if I want it, I'mgetting a pre-cut.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
I know, oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
It's bougie.
Yeah, yeah, I don't buy itoften.
I'm not buying it like all thetime, but I'm not hauling a huge
watermelon and then, becauseyou want to wash it off before
you cut it, you know what I'msaying yeah, and, and.
Then you got on the counter andwho's got a cutting board that
big?
What kind of knife are we usinghere?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
You're always trying to put it on a paper plate.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Can you go get the home light chainsaw?
You know, let's cut it outside.
Yeah, there'll be no ants afterthat.
You know what I'm saying?
It's a whole thing.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I don't know.
And to people I know differentpeople put stuff on a watermelon
.
Well, we do know.
And to people I know differentpeople put stuff on a watermelon
.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Well, we did salt, we used to salt a watermelon I
still do sometimes my husbandthat and he was like I'm sorry
what I thought everybody didremember the salt shaker.
You always put salt on it.
I didn't eat a bite withoutsalt till I was probably in high

to bundle up and do thatbusiness, whatever.
Or Thanksgiving Day parade,Macy's Day, whatever it's called

It's just little.
It's too hot.
It's just little.
Bikes with red, white and bluestreamers, everybody's got a
little bitty flag and it's just.

Americans consume about 150 million hot dogs per
year.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh so this has nothing to do with the fourth.
Yeah, so I don't know whythat's on this.
Probably 100 million of themare on the fourth.
Do you eat hot dogs?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Not anymore.
I used to.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Do you eat beef ones or turkey dogs?

I've transitioned to turkey dogs and now I haven't
had a hot dog in like two orthree years.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
So it's just a mind thing.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
It's like you can't do it.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
If I haven't eaten in four days and somebody gives me
a hot dog, I'm just gonna belike oops.
I dropped it.
I ain't eating it, no okay Ican't do it, it's just a mental
block now see, I, I'm, I'm gonnabe honest.

We are hungry, by the way.

This data came from theNational Hot Dog and Sausage
Council, which I don't know.
Who's on that?
Joey Chestnut and two otherpeople I don't know?
The hot dog eating dude yeah, Ithink.
150 million.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Hot, the hot dog eating dude yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I think 150 million hot dogs.
He eats 50 million of them.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Good grief.
How does he show up again everyyear?
I expect him to be dead.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
He does that's.
All he does is eatingcompetitions.
So he does that like once ayear, but then he does, you know
, the Joe Schmo barbecue contest.
He just goes around and eats.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Okay, is he cleansing or something after that?
Juice, cleanse Fasting.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
He's slowing, he ain't fasting.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
How is he alive?
How old is that guy?
I don't know.
We'll look it up, yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Also, there have been 27 different official versions
of the flag.
I thought there was like threeor four.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yeah, I guess I didn't totally realize that 27?
.
Well, they kept adding stuff.
Make a decision.
Speaker 2 (13:42):

Speaker 1 (13:42):
We're going to stop right here.
If we add another island, whocares?
We add another island?
Who?
Speaker 2 (13:49):

And then well, this one, theAmerican flag's traditional
triangle fold, was meant toevoke a three-cornered hat, like
the kind George Washington wore.

Right, my neighborhood yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:01):

You think yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
According to Live Science I don't know what that
is it was seen as unpatriotic ifyou kept your business open on
Independence Day before theCivil War, but after restaurants
and stores started having saleson red, white, blue merchandise
Yep.
And they've continued eversince, I guess mattresses are

Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I guess I knew that A lot of history.
Yeah, we should go there.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Okay, this one I thought was smart.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
So Thomas Jefferson believed that a new Constitution
should be written every 19years.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
I don't know how he came up with 19.
19, that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
But he said if and I'm quoting don't get mad at me
one generation of men has, heasked?
He said If one generation ofmen has the right to bind
another.
The lands would belong to thedead and not to the living,
which would be the reverse ofour principle, which is one of
(18:52):
the smartest things I've everread.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
That's deep Thomas Thomas.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
What's up, Tom Knowledge bombs.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
I'm saying yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
It makes sense.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Right, well, things change and progress.
Yeah, yeah, it makes sense,right, well, things change and
progress.
And like yeah, yeah, I meanlike nice, great, because we
don't want to be like we were.
I mean lots of ways.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
19 seems like a lot of rewriting, but it's probably
should be more than ever.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Like to hunt, you know, yeah well, it's the time
from a person when they're bornto their young adulthood that
you know you've.
There's been a whole nothercrop of adults that are about to
go out to the world, collegework, whatever we didn't have
electricity right I know, andthey're just like using quills
and yeah, let's keep this thesame forever and ever.

You think we should?
Oh no.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
No, it'll be fine.
Yeah, hey, do you thinkseven-year-olds will ever have
smartphones?
Speaker 1 (19:50):

Let's just write this foreternity.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Let's just keep it the way it is.
Nothing will ever change.
People are always going to ridehorses.
There won't be auto taxis.

Yeah, four times a century yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:21):

Small towns spend $8,000 to$15,000 on 4th of July.

There was 50, so we saved y'all.
It's a tradition to eat salmonon the 4th of July in New
(20:45):
England.
You know where I'm to eatsalmon on the 4th of July in New
England.
You know where I'm not going tocelebrate the 4th of July, new
England Alongside peas.
The tradition likely dates backto the fact that peas ripened
at the same time as the fish.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Fish don't ripen.
Who wrote?
Speaker 2 (21:01):
this.
This needs to get revised every19 years.
That's making the two a goodpairing around the same time.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
No, you're going to be sick as a dog because it's
going to sit out in the sun,it's going to grow bacteria and
then you're going to eat it andyou're going to be in the ER.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Put that salmon in a windowsill until it ripens.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I've done grilling the salmon.
You and me sit it here in thesun until the hot dogs are done.

its texture.
Excuse me Well, we ain't doingthat.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
But it's not as redneck as we thought, look at
that no Look at us Lime juice orlemon juice.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I'd go lime.

the sweetness of watermelon.

There wasn't really enoughmedicine to calm her down from
the fireworks.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
