named for me at a restaurant called Blue Collar in
Miami and this came in sixty seven. It's at an
old like like crackdain Hooker motel and it's a delicious
brisket sandwich. But it's never enough for me. So I
named another sandwich after myself at the waffle house call.

(01:56):
I just called it the Corbin and it's bacon. It's bacon,
egg and cheese on a waffle instead of bread.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
What about the hash brown?

Speaker 7 (03:02):
Hold on, say, Billy, can I ask you a chef question?
Did you ask them to cook that waffle a little
bit longer? Because that's a nice color for a for
a waffle house.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
Well, you know, I I like my waffles like my

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Brother, that's gonna be big hats, some big black women.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
I love it there, Hey, Billy, So you came up
a lot. In the first hour.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
We were talking about, uh, Miami being built on cocaine.
We learned that from Cocaine Cowboys, obviously one of my favorite,
if not my best, my favor documentary of all time.
I'd have to think about it, but it's certainly on
a very very short list. And then we were talking
about prohibition Ken Burns' documentary, and then we learned.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
That like Vegas was built on booze, that's well, and
like every good.

Speaker 4 (04:14):
Town, yeah right, which I mean most sounds have been
built on something illicit, you know, I mean, whether it's
it's bos cocaine.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
I mean slave labor. Let's not forget the original slave labor.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Will you just get over that.

Speaker 5 (04:30):
Alone?

Speaker 6 (04:37):
Thinking by.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
We don't get over that little scratch on our country,
a little blemish.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
My people built the pyramids, so I know all about it.

Speaker 5 (04:51):
Yeah, it was a rocket city.

Speaker 7 (04:53):
So, Billy, when I was with you and and we
were doing Rolling's food Court, you were you told me
the story about how Florida doesn't make anything. It's just
a bunch of dreamers that come down there, and there's
a whole industry, you know, based on removing the money
from these people.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
Well, I mean, we we subsist purely from hustle to
hustle in the state of Florida because we don't we
don't we don't have any indigenous industry other than selling
the dream. We sell the Florida dream, we sell the sunshine.
You know, we've got to we rely solely on new revenue,
new people coming in and bringing their money and leaving

(05:30):
it here, you know, one way, one way or another.
And so there's a theory about the state of Florida
economy and they it's called the Ponzi state theory. And
because like a Ponzi scheme, we are not you know,
we were not self fulfilling. You know, we don't have
a self sustaining economy. We need that new income and

(05:51):
we need to attract the new investors. And we don't
care what you invest in or if you just literally
leave your money in the street, you leave as long
as you leave it all here. So everybody is just
going from hustle to hustle in this state and trying
to find ways to get people here and to separate
you from your cash.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
Wow, yeah I did it a woman like that, you know.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
But you know were liking it to this movie. I
don't know if you remember the movie Breakdown with Kurt Russell.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
Oh yes, yes, Yeah, that's Florida.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
Like, you know, we're all we're that town where we
just wait for you know, for you to get drive
your car through stop off at the gas station, and
then we do everything we can to take your money,
you know. I mean like that's our whole, our whole economy,
and everybody's kind of in on it, you know. Yeah,
you know, everybody's got their own hustle, and everybody's trying
to come up with a way to first get you

(06:46):
here and then to get your money.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Billy, whether you think that started with do you think
it started with the beaches? Or you think it's started
with Walt Disney? What made Florida that kind of place?

Speaker 4 (06:55):
You No, No, you're right. It's a totally transient population.
You know, for a while, nobody could even live here
year round because of the mosquitos and the heat. It
wasn't until this mid the mid nineteen fifties when we
got two things happened. We got DDT to kill the Skeeters,
you know, to control the Mosquitos and Central Central as exactly,

(07:16):
and then you could live here year round. And since then,
on average, we've had one thousand new rivals to the
state of Florida every year on average. That's crazy. And
that's three I mean, I mean, I'm sorry, three hundred
a thousand new rivals again.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
Yeah, that makes more sense.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
Three hundred and sixty five thousand a year, I apologize.
And so that's crazy. He grows. And then what happened
is in two thousand and seven, before the economy collapsed,
you know internationally, in two thousand and seven, Florida had
our first ever next a population decrease where fewer people came,
you know than they did the year before, and our

(07:53):
economy collapsed.

Speaker 5 (07:55):
Wow, the constant ground Floorida, the constant knew me, right.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
Wow, we need new suckers. Everything was just.

Speaker 5 (08:05):
Suckers every day and they're born every day.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Now. Now, how much of that new population is elderly
like coming in and retiring? How much of that as young?
And how's that changed?

Speaker 6 (08:14):
Anything?

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Much younger than the rest of the state, right.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
Billy, Oh, absolutely I mean you go here in places
like Palm Beach or Naples and there's definitely enclaves of
like elderly, elderly people.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
They're brought in a new population too because they moved
out and there as new Florida Floridians.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
Oh absolutely, they moved out here and they retired, but
they don't they don't really do anything anyway, so they're
not looking for work or for job right there. They're
on income, you know, collecting Social Security or whatever, so
like they don't really literally factor in. Although there was
a time sort of before the cocaine boom when like
places like Miami Beach, there were more people dying than

(08:54):
being born in a place like Miami Beach in the
in the nineteen seventies, it was a pretty depressed, uh
you know population.

Speaker 5 (09:02):
But now now there's more people being born on the
beaches in Miami than he will.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
Well certainly certainly more people being I.

Speaker 6 (09:10):
Would say.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
Inseminated.

Speaker 5 (09:15):
I've seen it. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:18):
But spring break, baby, you know, remember for spring break
is a week for some people, it's like three months
for us down here, because people just keep coming.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
Right, It's like living on a cruise ship. It just
never ends.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
You guys must love the off season, even though there's
not much of an off season and no point.

Speaker 4 (09:37):
Oh no, you quiet things down, and then we get
hurricanes in the off.

Speaker 5 (09:42):
God tries to wipe away your sins.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
Good luck with that.

Speaker 5 (09:48):
Oh wow, that's so fascinating. The whole state is built
on that.

Speaker 6 (09:51):
Like I'll tell you we you know, Billy was down there.

Speaker 7 (09:53):
We were there for Food and Wine Festival, and I'm like, oh,
it's to bring Billy in for food Court.

Speaker 6 (09:58):
He comes in and flames Rose just the restaurants he
doesn't like right off the bat. It's the best interview
we ever did on food Court. He was like, that
place sucks. That place is full of shit.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
They love garbage, Billie restaurants you love enough.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
Well, I'd rather hear about the full of ship place.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
I want to get that second. How they are and how.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
They are tricking the diners.

Speaker 5 (10:16):
Oh, they're tricking people. I would imagine, Okay, who do
you hate bell shit?

Speaker 4 (10:21):
It's not it's not that they're tricking the diners.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
I call it.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
I call it the Emperor's new clothes effects. You know,
we're like where shit gets popular but for no reason.
You know what I mean like you get it, like
people are telling you this is the best shit ever,
and then you try it and you're like, are we
eating machine?

Speaker 5 (10:38):
Yeah? So many people do that, but so many things.

Speaker 7 (10:41):
Oh you have to have this and you go there
like this what And miamis the number one offender what
I call the false palette or the Instagram palette, where
people will literally eat something because someone told them it
was great, and they will tell you it's great, and
I'm like, there's there's still paper on there, bro, like.

Speaker 6 (10:57):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (10:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (10:59):
Just by suggest New York the opinions, Like you could
tell someone it's the best rated restaurant.

Speaker 6 (11:04):
He can't wait to tell you it sucks. Yes, in Miami,
people can't wait to tell you that Instagram was right.
It's a piggyback at the Instagram Palette of Miami.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
It's it's a self perpetuating bullshit factory.

Speaker 5 (11:18):
It is a never ending river bullshit.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Billy, would you ever leave Florida though you love your Florida,
you love your.

Speaker 4 (11:28):
Man?

Speaker 5 (11:29):
Come on?

Speaker 4 (11:29):
You know what I always say say, Los Angeles is
where you go and you want to be somebody. New
York is where you go when you are somebody in
Miami's where you go and you want to be somebody else.

Speaker 6 (11:38):
Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 5 (11:41):
I love it there.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
It's always been a sunny place for shady people. And
that's that's why we that's why we named our new
our new show that because Florida Fuckery is a whole
genre now of news journalism and storytelling, and those are
the kinds of stories that we love.

Speaker 5 (11:57):
There's a whole state when everybody's got their eyes wide shut.

Speaker 6 (12:01):
I mean the ship Billy Posts, I mean, it's great
people watching that.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
God, whenever a crazy story comes in the news, Florida
is the first thing that comes to mind.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
What's one of your better ones in the last few months?

Speaker 4 (12:15):
Oh my god. The problem is that someone ever downright tragic.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
You know, you can still lawful, you can separate yourself.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
Like like you have the cop in North Miami who
shot the uh, the unarmed black dude with his arms up.
But he says, who was a therapist who is trying
to his autistication video. But the cops are like, no, no, no, no,
we didn't mean to shoot the unarmed black therapist with

(12:47):
his arms up. We meant to shoot the unarmed autistic kid. Yes,
that was there.

Speaker 5 (12:51):
That's what's their argument.

Speaker 6 (12:52):
I understand.

Speaker 5 (12:56):
That dude looked a job though.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Right there they were. They were in a fit of
a pickle down there.

Speaker 4 (13:03):
He's now police. I think I think it was yesterday
in Florida. They bought a prepackaged salad mix from Walmart
and they sound a dead inside of it. Damn treated

(13:24):
for rabies.

Speaker 5 (13:27):
Wait did they find it after they prepared the food?

Speaker 3 (13:29):
They eat it? How do you not find the bat
before you start eating the salad?

Speaker 5 (13:32):
You think of seasoning.

Speaker 6 (13:33):
I can tell you how people. The employees are fucking nightmare.
They'll they see it, but they're like there's an old saying,
like they'll tell you you know what I mean.

Speaker 7 (13:43):
The boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That's
why I should don't company time. They don't care.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
But and you have a you have a better case
if you eat the salad before you discover the bat.

Speaker 6 (13:53):
Yes, that's why.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
I bet you something was carefully picking around the bat
and then then claim they.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Found the bat after the fact.

Speaker 6 (14:02):
You would be Matt.

Speaker 4 (14:05):
I'm pretty sure a shallot with a bat in it,
we call that a Florida Waldorf.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Like that Billy had one like that one. Billy had
that one written down on a cocktail napkin.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
I can't believe the cops and excuses. What I was
wanted to shoot the slottle kid see that.

Speaker 6 (14:25):
The bat salad.

Speaker 3 (14:26):
But Florida is gangst Florida. What do you get?

Speaker 1 (14:30):

beer open when they pulled her over.

Speaker 6 (17:11):
What's her sex scandal with the kids coming out this

Speaker 3 (17:14):
I like it. I like this one report.

Speaker 5 (17:16):
Gunman.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Gunman who allegedly shot an injured two then committed suicide
at Equinox gym.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
He felt like he had to get one more work
dout in.

Speaker 6 (17:24):
No, he worked there. He worked there.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
Oh, he was like a personal trainer and he at me.

Speaker 5 (17:32):
How do you know he worked there?

Speaker 3 (17:33):
You know I heard it on the news.

Speaker 5 (17:35):
You know that story.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
It's a better story if I was kidding.

Speaker 6 (17:38):
He didn't work you more reps in before he killed himself.

Speaker 5 (17:42):
That's the worst place to get killed. You already don't
want to be there. They're not.

Speaker 6 (17:45):
They're going to charge you a full month anyway, those motherfuckers. Yeah,
that's a bunch of savages. They charge you for everything.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
They asked one of people who got shot to clean
off the work bench. Wipe it down, you animal.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
We all use it, Billy, When is this documentary coming out?

Speaker 4 (18:12):
It's actually a series. Yeah, so every week will be
a new story of a Florida fuckery and it's it's
being narrated by Stephen Bauer, nanny from Starface.

Speaker 5 (18:24):
Oh wow, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (18:29):
It's gonna be on Netflix too, right.

Speaker 4 (18:31):
I hope. So while we're trying, I want to do
one hundred more episodes. But we just finished the first
one and we're waiting on news to see if it
gets picked up.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
Wow, that's amazing. That's a great idea for a show
that I'm telling.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
You absolutely, Are you uh still into documentaries? What have
you watched lately? Anything good?

Speaker 4 (18:50):
I haven't. I haven't watched the damn thing. Although I
just heard because I've been working and traveling, but I
just heard about this disgraced doc on Showtime. I mean,
Baylor is a mess.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
This oh the school? Yeah wait, what's this about Bayle
University in Texas?

Speaker 4 (19:07):
Yeah, so this is about but this isn't about the
new scandal, you know with the football and the and
the raps. But this was about uh a a basketball
coach back in like three who helped cover up like
a murder by accusing a dead player of being a
drug dealer, falsely accusing him. He was caught on audio.

(19:27):
A buddy of mine was just telling me about it
PREMI here on Showtime Wow last week, and that coach
was coaching at another school, and needless to say, he
resigned like days after the doc premier. So, I mean, listen,
and docs changed the world. There's an immediate reaction like that,
you know. I mean, it's just it's the same listen
and we're all documentarians now. Just ask the uh, the
person who recorded that poor doctor getting beaten and dragged

(19:50):
off a United plate.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
I mean, right, peanuts is.

Speaker 5 (20:03):
Ticket?

Speaker 3 (20:04):
Like, how does that happen?

Speaker 5 (20:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (20:05):
That's pretty messed off. Yeah, what's the what's the story there?
They overbooked?

Speaker 4 (20:12):
Have you been have you flown lately?

Speaker 3 (20:14):
This is the customers something the airline.

Speaker 4 (20:18):
This is what it knowed what they did with They
had four crew members who needed to to get the
ride to like baton rugs. They needed to be there
for the you know, the flight the next morning. Yeah,
so so they needed four passengers to give up their seats.
First they were offering four hundred bucks, you know, plus
a plus a hotel night. Then they doubled it to
eight hundred bucks, and then they had no takers. So

(20:40):
they said the computer would randomly select four passengers.

Speaker 5 (20:43):
Oh god, you can't do that.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
You got to keep going out.

Speaker 4 (20:48):
So they had one couple that that just said, okay,
we got picked, We're out. And then one guy said,
I'm a doctor and I have to see patients at
the hospital in the morning. I can't go. And then
they beat them and dragged.

Speaker 5 (21:00):
Them off the yeh, how is that? Free market? Man?

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Just keep offering till somebody bykes No, man, you keep
up in the price and someone will fucking tell me.

Speaker 5 (21:10):
About you gotta pay more money, not whip ass.

Speaker 8 (21:12):
Right.

Speaker 3 (21:12):
I was always the guy that raised my hand, I'm out,
I'm good. How is that legal?

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Though?

Speaker 3 (21:17):
I would leave the plane again me I had no
fucking money man. It was nice. It's free cash.

Speaker 5 (21:21):
I was like, I'm almost out of weed. I gotta
leave this town.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Although it was always like, uh, well you got a flight,
there would be much connect the cash.

Speaker 5 (21:30):
But how do you drag a dude off a plane
you already gonna take it. It's like, this is who
paid for this already?

Speaker 2 (21:36):
So then Billy, what happened? He obviously said hell no
still and then uh who dragged them off? They found
air marshals.

Speaker 6 (21:41):
Yeah, those are marshals.

Speaker 4 (21:43):
They got three security guards security.

Speaker 5 (21:45):
Guard, I don't think the.

Speaker 4 (21:48):
Yeah, and they came in and he was being they said,
he was being unreasonable. So you can see they like
whack his head on on like the armrest, I think,
and they and they just drag him out by his arms.
He seems unconscious.

Speaker 6 (22:01):
Actually, yeah, United is fucked fuck United.

Speaker 5 (22:06):
I hate fucked fucked.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
They are fun.

Speaker 7 (22:09):
That was a good reason I was telling I was
telling uh, I was telling Sharad before about United, Like
when you go first class in a lot of those planes,
it's like magnum p I like, seventies of a lord's
seats in the front of the ashtray still works.

Speaker 1 (22:22):
I said, it's the episode of Vegas. I said, Robert Yort.

Speaker 6 (22:27):
United is a ship bomb.

Speaker 5 (22:29):
This is a mess, this is this is you do
not want this in the days of Twitter.

Speaker 7 (22:34):
But I'm saying that, like, doesn't he have any real
It seems like all your all your rights and everything
just stop on a plane, right.

Speaker 2 (22:41):
It's not the customer's fault here. So as a company,
you got to just keep up in the price. Somebody
will fucking say, okay, I'll take that.

Speaker 5 (22:48):
If you said a two grand, somebody get off the plane.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Right, of course they will.

Speaker 5 (22:52):
It's like it's not worth us not beating somebody's ass.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
Though, right, especially when you realize this guy doesn't want
to move and he paid for his ticket.

Speaker 3 (22:58):
He's on the plane, he's binding his own business in
his fucking seat that he paid for.

Speaker 5 (23:02):
The best part of the women, let's hear the women
screaming as they dragged him out.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
You want to play this, well, Billy's on the phone, Billy,
hold on, we're gonna watch this video real fast.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
Drag the.

Speaker 6 (23:24):
Oh my god, oh.

Speaker 5 (23:27):
My god, he's not there. It's got hit. Yeah, he
got it. What are you doing?

Speaker 6 (23:34):
What are you doing?

Speaker 5 (23:38):
My god?

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Look at what you do.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
Look at you can't do that holy ship. Oh that
guy is gonna be very rich.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Commerce.

Speaker 5 (23:54):
Yes, yes, yes, everywhere, no question. You knocked the dude
out and dres them.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
It looks like he fucking got knocked out, all right,
So that was terrible.

Speaker 6 (24:03):
But did he bitch scream like that?

Speaker 3 (24:05):
Or was that someone else he was screaming?

Speaker 5 (24:07):
That was his bitch scream?

Speaker 6 (24:08):
Yeah, that was a god Zellos scream if I've ever
heard one.

Speaker 3 (24:10):
Dude, that's I mean, you paid for your fucking See.

Speaker 5 (24:14):
They look like the security from the Village Underground. That's
what those boys do. Oh yes, sir.

Speaker 6 (24:22):
With the with the cow with the Marshall's hat, he was.
That guy was unreasonable about it about his strength.

Speaker 4 (24:29):
How happy? How happy are the PR people today?

Speaker 6 (24:35):
They're gonna solve this situation?

Speaker 4 (24:39):
I mean United United makes Spirit look like Jet Blue.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Yeah, I'm telling you, you throw him on the tarmac
and you give him a nice cold PEPSI all good and.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Even a woman the woman yelled out, can't you get
the pilots to take a car, run a car for
the pilot, let them drive there right say?

Speaker 5 (24:57):
They give you reasonable ways to solve this.

Speaker 3 (24:59):
So it sounds like it was a short flight.

Speaker 5 (25:01):
It was a short flight. They just didn't want this
dude to win.

Speaker 3 (25:04):
Whose idea was it that they were gonna just randomly
pick through a computer.

Speaker 7 (25:08):
Some county Avian county leader goes, let's turn this into
the Hunger Games.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
Fucking that person's so fired, fired, fire, you did what.

Speaker 5 (25:18):
I just thought we'd have a little Oh my god,
they gonna be working at Peter pan Bus Service.

Speaker 6 (25:25):
I can't.

Speaker 5 (25:27):
Peter.

Speaker 6 (25:28):
When you're a Peter fan, it's all bad.

Speaker 5 (25:30):
You're in a Chinatown five dollar bus.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
Chinatown, Chinatown for five dollars. Some of those busses end
up in the woods.

Speaker 5 (25:41):
My driver was smoking on the while he was driving.
I was like, okay, it's a smoking bush.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
I know.

Speaker 6 (25:46):
I was on the Peter Pant bus. It looked like
had a tree magnet in the front. I just kept
pointing towards the woods.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
I'm like, come on, the Pan is luxury compared to Chinatown,
the Chinatowns, and I love them.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
You white knuckle that ship. You're scared ships.

Speaker 6 (25:58):
I heard a chicken on one.

Speaker 5 (26:00):
That's no lady with two chickens in the case.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
Yeah. That when they got on McDonald's when we stopped,
we hit a pothole, Like, what the fuck? United though
they're fucked.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Yeah you think they're fucked, billy, of course they are.
It's a pr nightmare.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
So if you find anywhere buy United. The tickets are
cheap than a motherfucker. I can't believe.

Speaker 7 (26:20):
But what I what I don't understand. Maybe you guys
can explain to me, is it seems to me like
I fly a lot. It seems like you're all your
laws and.

Speaker 6 (26:28):
Everything go out the window once you're on that fuck.

Speaker 5 (26:30):
You don't have the same rights that you have. More right,
they treat you like an animal.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, look at what.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
The t s A does.

Speaker 4 (26:36):
I mean they're like sexually molesting children, you know, and
like security under you know, for national security.

Speaker 6 (26:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
It looks like that kid was packing.

Speaker 6 (26:49):
All right, I'll be talking like someone that flies private.

Speaker 5 (26:52):
Well, you know you did it to yourself. Guys.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
We flew Delta. We just went away and uh, turch
and Caicos was awesome. Delta was awesome.

Speaker 5 (27:01):
Sometimes the plane is great.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
I know they had some uh they had a problem
canceling all sorts of flights. The last Oh yeah, I
got so fucked by Delta.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
This we there was there was a rainstorm in Atlanta
on Wednesday, and by Sunday they still didn't have their
ship together again. They still we were cancelling as many
as three thousand flights a day, wow.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Claiming, uh yeah, you're saying claiming, uh tornado, claiming that
you know there was tornado warnings and all and.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
All that stuff with that storm. So that was they panicked.
That was their reasoning.

Speaker 4 (27:33):
Give me a break, Give me a break. If a
butterfly flaps its wings in Zimbabwe.

Speaker 7 (27:37):
And I'm stuck in La I don't understand butterfly.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Of fact, I get it as soon as you're playing
got a Sully Sullivan burger into the fucking Hudson.

Speaker 5 (27:45):
River and you're like this, why did we take off?

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Stamp bird strike All starts with those butterfly That's why
you got to catch them and pull those fucking wings off.

Speaker 1 (27:56):

and but ripping.

Speaker 6 (28:02):
He's a bad kid.

Speaker 7 (28:02):

OPI just ripped off of butterfly's wings.

Speaker 3 (28:07):
I gotta go meditate. I was gonna do a lot,
and that one slipped out. I usually keep those control.

Speaker 6 (28:20):
I don't think this guy's gonna get anything from United.
I'll tell you, are you fucking kidding?

Speaker 1 (28:26):
They're gonna settle for like a half a million dollars
every day they beat the ship off.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Everybody is yeah, thank you, it's on tape. It's a
it's a pr nightmare. They're gonna go, holy fuck, Yeah,
this was handled horribly. We're gonna try to take care
of this guy and give him this, this and this
and and hope it just goes away.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
Let me tell you what I.

Speaker 4 (28:47):
Have to think. So listen, I I you know, I
don't remember last year there was just folks who were
at a dissy resort and they're like two or three
year old kid got eaten by an alligator.

Speaker 5 (28:56):
Yes, some parents have all the luck.

Speaker 4 (29:00):
Well, well, I'm guessing that Disney handed them a blank
check said write whatever number you want to sign this
NDA and we'll never talk about it again. And nobody's
heard from.

Speaker 6 (29:12):
Them, right yeah, oh wow?

Speaker 7 (29:14):
Really yeah, that's because they're with Richard Branson deep sea
fishing right now.

Speaker 5 (29:18):
Like they're loaded shitting on a private island.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
Or their lives were destroyed and they can't even fucking
imagine got outside of her again.

Speaker 6 (29:27):
What happened?

Speaker 5 (29:28):
The kid got eaten by alligator? Out of Disney World.

Speaker 6 (29:30):
I got a number to forget that, and they deliver.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
About a lawsuit. There's no no public filings about it.
There's no news right at all.

Speaker 5 (29:44):
It just disappeared now twenty story with the parents, none
of that.

Speaker 6 (29:48):
Disney's pr company was a monster with that. They just
got rid of it.

Speaker 5 (29:51):
Yeah, they're gonna be rich for the rest of eight generations.

Speaker 6 (29:54):
They had thirty people just killing.

Speaker 7 (29:56):
Alligators in that lately the next ten hours, like, there's
not an alligator in that whole park.

Speaker 5 (30:00):
That's why I said this dude on the United gonna
get paid.

Speaker 3 (30:03):
They piled up the dead alligators and said, okay, which
one was it? We think we got them all, and then.

Speaker 5 (30:09):
On all pointed to the one they already tailed.

Speaker 6 (30:11):
It was like the movie.

Speaker 5 (30:17):
I was referencing a great movie.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
You know what, though, you guys are right though, we
haven't heard a peep from that family since nothing nothing
interesting because.

Speaker 6 (30:25):
They just bought a pegasust and they're living in Narnia.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
When I watched that United Tate, what I see is
two black dudes only aggressive working for the white man,
beating up another white man, draggon him out of some
way where he was supposed to be right, and then
other white women's scared, pointing saying what have you done
to him?

Speaker 6 (30:42):
Right?

Speaker 5 (30:43):
What if there's other ways? Paid well?

Speaker 3 (30:45):
But they were pointing at something, so what I think?
On God, look at the video got hit.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
Yeah you can't see what they're pointing at, but there's
more than one pointing going look.

Speaker 5 (30:55):

His kids got to see him like this, fucking employees
or its coal workers, and his family.

We gotta go deeper with the story is the law.

Speaker 5 (34:23):
That any circumstances they actually get off the one you got, I.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
Would assume they could ask you to leave.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Sure, even if it's that they just over they didn't
need to seats for their own employees.

Speaker 5 (34:34):
They get on the plane and you bought your ticket.

Speaker 6 (34:37):
That's nuts.

Speaker 8 (34:39):
If you guys haven't noticed anymore, Like, it doesn't matter
if they can do it, they did it right. Every

Now.

Speaker 5 (34:51):
I want to see them randomly do this to a

They'll do it, They'll kill them.

Speaker 5 (34:55):
I believe.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
I believe you could do it, but you probably shouldn't
do it in that way because then it's a pr nightmare.

Speaker 6 (35:01):
You look at the pictures of this dude.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
United might have justifications.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
Paid.
