Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to the SS Experience on SMG Recording and progress.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Okay, my check, is this thing on?
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Never can really tell if this thing is on when
we be talking and stuff, so hopefully if it's on.
If it's not, we're going have to record this thing
anywhere else. So this is the Twitter spaces no mean on.
We recording actually on right now at Haney Hardaway seven five.
Welcome to the situation. Welcome to the show. Uh man,
(00:28):
So a lot of stuff is popping off. There's always
a lot of stuff is popping.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Off or whatever. My bad for being late.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
I was actually on the phone and didn't realize, like,
oh show, we're supposed to be on the Twitter spaces
joint right now.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
No, I mean chopping up with the Twitter world. So
my bad.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
But like I said, man, we got like a lot
of action. We got like a lot of motion popping off.
So let's go ahead and get into the shit, you know,
I mean Twitter all right, so you can see everything
that we're doing in a little rundown whatever. I put
all of the topics that we're gonna run through on
this Twitter Space show real quick. So Hooters is filing bankruptcy.
(01:06):
Now the funny thing about you know, first off, you know,
does Hooters. Let's let let's let's just let's crack the
old school joke at Haney hard at all the SS
experience no either be game experience on Twitter or x
howe you get down out here in these digit streets
all were just type it right now while we're actively
on the Twitter spaces real quick.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Do you go to Hooters for wings? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Nah, if you know you know where that where that
that question that joke came from. So we'll update you
on the poll a little bit later, long as y'all
out here voting and stuff. Because I don't mind Hooters,
Like Hooters is pretty good to me. You know, at
times like sometimes you get like a bad batch, but
most times it's it's pretty cool. But most times people
(01:53):
go to Hooters for the for.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
The vibes and the abians.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
You know what I'm saying, They going to Hooters, you
know what, I mean, to see some Hooters, to see
some you know, the shirts, the orange bottoms and all
of that stuff. That's what pretty much everybody's going to
Hooters for get yourself, some beers, some lick and you know,
have a good time or whatever. And it's in my
surprise that Hooters is filing bankruptcy. I'm not really that surprised.
(02:23):
And here's why. In Columbus, Ohio there's no Hooters. I'm
I'm you know, I'm riding around caause Hooters is kind
of like a little, you know, chill type situation whatever.
You know what I'm saying, ge't some wings catch a
vibe like I told you, And I'm like, damn, there's
no Hooters out here. I'm you know, googling, you know, okay,
or you know, hitting up you know, Apple maps, Hooters,
you know.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Closest Hooters whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Closest Hooters you know from Columbus is uh, Cincinnati, like
right right at the borderline, you know what I'm saying,
entering the county where cincinnatik it's like Butler County and
Hamilton County or something like that. And that's the closest
Hooters that you can get if you're in Columbus. So
nobody's about to drive like a hour and some change
just to go to Hooters. Like I mean, Hooters is
a vibe at times, but it ain't that much of
(03:05):
a vibe, just you know what I'm saying to say
the least to put it out there.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
It's not that much of a vibe.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
But I'm you know, obviously doing research and stuff, and
I'm like, okay, so why there no Hooters out here?
And then you know, you you know, go to their
sites and they have like articles of stuff about it,
and Hooters as a corporation says that in Columbus or
just the people who want to you know, put up
money for Hooters, either they have the money but they
(03:34):
don't have the restaurant experience, or they have the restaurant
experience but they don't have the money. Now I thought
that was like the dumbest reason in the world, because
let's say, if you're a person who you got the
bread to functionally run a restaurant, but you don't have
(03:57):
the experience per se, well, shit, if somebody's putting up
they bred to put some stuff together and you can
hire people to you know, be within the mix. Like okay,
so if you corporate, right, Okay, so you corporate person
says they got they got a million dollars to start
(04:21):
a Hooters, but they don't have as much restaurant experience.
They got business experience, but they don't have restaurant experience.
One or two things should have happened. You hire a
person that has restaurant experience to you know, be GM
type situation or as you know, Hooters corporate office. You
assigned somewhere there to be the day to day to
(04:43):
make sure that it runs because either way, at the
end of the day, you want the money. And the
reason why I'm saying all of this is because Hooters
wouldn't be, you know, filing bankruptcy if they would have
allowed more people to buy into what was going on now.
Is Hooters the best wing? We should probably put that
on the polls as well. It's Hooters the best wings.
(05:04):
I know a lot of people probably say nah, especially
if you in cities like Atlanta where there's so much
other wing options. Besides, Hooters might not be the best thing,
might not be the best place or whatnot. But in
all of my times going to Hooters, it's always been
(05:26):
good energy and good vibe.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
For real.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
The one thing that I didn't know, and I was
talking to somebody when I was recently out of Hooters,
I was at the Hooters out in Roswell, Georgia. I'm like, so,
if you walk in and you see a bar, not
bartender or waitress that you would rather serve, you you
could really just request them.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
And they were like, yeah, customers do it all the time.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
See Now, I always thought like with most waitressing or whatever,
it's on a rotation. People come in based on the
party and you put them in sections. So that way,
every you know, waitress or waiter gets an equal opportunity
to you know, make some money. Now, obviously, if a
(06:10):
dead beat comes to your table in comparison to a
person who's tipping, okay, that's you chalk that up to
the game. But at least you have an opportunity to
you know, serve someone to get some tips.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
So you know, you you know, be at the you know,
at Hooters.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
And it's like, oh okay, so I can just be
like I want her and then like they come in
like it.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I just thought I thought it was kind of, you know, weird.
It's not weird because I guess if you choose it,
you choosey.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
But you know, I'm just thinking like, dang girl in
a rotation, you know what I'm saying. She might not
be right, but she you know, So I just I
just thought about it that way. But then I get
it too, where it's like if you want to have
like and it was kind of making it sound like
the massage part, like, well, if you want the best
experience of that girl, give you the best experience, then
go ahead. And I can kind of feel that because
(07:00):
it'll be sometimes I being Hooters and you know, I'm
sitting there, you know, eating the chilling whatever, and it's
like the girl who I really wanted to be my server,
I'm trying to make eye contact her. I'm trying to
you know, see what's up with her, and then my
waitress come through. It's like, okay, yeah, yeah, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I'm good. I'm good.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
I mean I still tipped her, you know, just because
it's like it's part of the process or whatever. It's
part of the you know, the her work or whatever.
But nah, I wanted the other joint to you know,
come through and serve you. Boy.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
So if that happens a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
But all in all, though, Hooters filing for bankruptcy. Why
is Hooters filing for bankruptcy? Like I said, I mentioned
that you're not allowing everybody with capital to participate for
various reasons, you know, even if they don't have all
(07:49):
of the money, but they have the restaurant experience.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Sure you confront them, you can front them a little bit,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Kind of make it a de facto corporate office until
you know they earn enough and then it can be
a local French I let them buy them ways into it.
But I know that might be a riskier model, but
at the same time, it gives you opportunity to at
least make some money. So if you want to talk about, okay,
Hooters as an ambiance, Okay, so you know Hooters as Hooters,
(08:18):
you know they have the same image, you know, throughout
no matter where it is, like the Hooters. I will
tell you in Roswell that joints like the size of
a neighborhood bar. Like it's not it doesn't feel like
a full restaurant, like it's really like a neighborhood bar
type shit. But it's a Hooters, you know. So if
you got the bread to get it, get it. And
(08:41):
I'm really trying to feel and believe because I haven't
been to Hooters in a while, Like I said, that
Roswell story at least like two years old. It's you know,
you got your games you know, people come in, you know,
especially if you got like a girl that you like
or whatever that you fuck with.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
You know that you pull up and see or whatever.
You know, certain games.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
So I really don't know why Hooters is filing bankruptcy
because it's just like a bar filing bankruptcy type stuff.
It's like, do you have drinks, yeah, do you have
sports yeah? Is the drinks affordable?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Then you should be able to fully function straight up.
And now you should be able to fully function to
get things going. If money troubles were so bad. I
seen Steak and Shake. They put something up where it
was like, if you got ten thousand dollars, you can
(09:40):
split the profits fifty to fifty of a restaurant, which
Steak and Shake is kind of like a situation. I
mean not everybody's in a Steak and Shake like that,
but the simple fact that they said ten thousands split
the split the profits down the middle of your store.
That's at least Steak in Shake trying to do something
(10:00):
to stay afloat. Yeah, I mean, ten thousand dollars investment,
you know at certain stores might be enough to get
them right to you know, get some some motion and
stuff going who does may just want to go out
of business for real. I mean, like, who knows is
(10:21):
Whoters trying to be with the name in the brand
of Hooters. You can't be a quote unquote family rest rant. Now,
I've been the Hooters plenty of time because I've seen
you know, dad with a kid, families with a kid.
Because the food is you know, good for some people.
I'm not saying it's bad for me. I'm just saying,
(10:42):
like you know, some people love the food just as
much as they loved the ambiance. See if the food
was trash trash, then I more than likely wouldn't go.
But it's decent enough for me to partake. And what's
going on drinks is cool, and it's the vibe and
the ambiance.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
That's pretty much. That's pretty much what it is.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Like the only difference between Hooters and a strip club,
it's just the entertainment factor of the women as far
as the waitress or the damn.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
So that's really pretty much.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It Drinks cool, I mean obviously, like in the Hooters,
I'll always you want to have a drink with me,
Like I know in some Hooters I've been to, they'll
have a drink with you. But most times they don't
have a drink with you. They say they gotta work
and they have to wait until like after shift, and
which is cool too because you know they don't they
(11:35):
don't want them to be lit. Like you're in the
strip club you like ship bartender ticket or the club
bar and Injurer Barxton to take a shot with me,
to wait street, take a shot with me, that's what
they do. But in Hooters restaurant gets it's a little different.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I'm with that. But just the end of real quick,
you just want to know, will you miss Hooters? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
No, put it on the point of the Assets experience.
No E at the beginning of the experience will try
to do that wildly. Twitter spaces is rocking and rolling
real quick, just in case if you're listening.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
All right, so pawning a PS five Now this is.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Hilarious, right Becruse, I was on Instagram and while I'm
on Instagram, you know, scrolling through stuff like that's the
a caption woman pawn sons thirteen year old sons PS
five Because Somen wouldn't use his birthday money to help
with the electric bill. There's so much layers and stuff
(12:42):
to that, It's like we're talking about a mom who's
a bum who isn't considerate of her children and holding
her children accountable to something that she should be doing.
Because now, what you just showed an exasp was is well,
if you can't afford it, pawn your valuables to do
(13:06):
it instead of you don't have the bill, go out
and get the money for it. It's not the kid's responsibility
to give his mom some money.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
For the thirteen year.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Old to give their mom money for the electric bill,
and then he's I mean, I don't know if he's
like nah or he shouldn't know whatever, but you're gonna
take his PS five and pawn that shit for the bread?
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Like, come on, man, Like, that's just it's single parents.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Like that, women mothers, single mothers like that. That really
just make me sick, to be honest with you, Like,
there's so many other situations and stuff where single moms
make me sick. But a single mom to take a
kid's PS five because she needed the money for the
electric bill even though the kid had.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
It, it's insane.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Like even if I the kindness of his heart, he
did give his mom dukes that bread it's not his
responsibility to do that. So I don't hold that in
any sort of regard, like, well, he should have gave
his mom some mon Like he's only.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Thirteen years old, he's not an adult.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Like I give my son money for his grades and stuff,
you know, good work or whatever if I'm down bad
or anything like that. I'm not about to ask him
to give me some money to pay a bill. Hell no,
Like that's not his responsibility to do anything like that.
Like nah, Like that's that's for him to be a child,
(14:37):
to do what they do with And the simple fact
that she took the PS five and pawned it with
like with him in the car riding with them, and
the whipping everything, just like yeah, I'm pawning your shit
because you ain't want to help. It's ridiculous. I'm sorry,
I just I just can't fade it. And just single
moms like that, y'all just really making me sick. I
(14:58):
wish there was like a in an article so I
can read more so I can blast the mother, you know,
prayers out to the kid, you know what I'm saying,
Like if the show had revenue and money like that,
we would definitely send him a PS five just because
you know, that's the type of show that we would
like to be. But we need sponsors, we need advertisers,
(15:18):
we need listeners, we need believers and all of that stuff.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Because that's the type of show that we are.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
We would definitely send that kid a PS five and
some games and be like, hold your head up, young king.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Last thing I want to run into.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
With this Twitter space show real quick, don't forget to
rate review, subscribe, re rate, re review, resubscribe, keep that
process going over and over and over again, so algorithm
could think that we're popping out here in these digital streets.
I'm a Philadelphia Eagles fan, and I'm pretty much a
Philadelphia Eagles fan as far as Philadelphia sports goes. But
(15:53):
I had a couple of coffee, you know, with Alan Iverson,
you know when Iverson was on the Sixes, and you know,
Obvioson's from Va. He's the goat to me or whatever.
So definitely was, you know, a fan of the Sixers.
My Wizards suck ass, by the way, but I'm not,
but since.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Obvious, I don't.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I've just been in the slums with the Wizards. But
I gravitated to the Sixers a little bit because I
rock with Joel Embiid. I rock with Joel and b I.
He's the He's the seventh footer that you created on
a video game that has respectable handles, a jump shot
and can shoot Frea Thos back in NBA Live ninety nine,
(16:34):
two thousand and two thousand and one.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, I'm old.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
I'm talking about Live, not two K, because back then
two K was the bootleg game for basketball and Live
was the shit. You didn't see the big man move
like that. So that's why I rock with Joel and Bid.
The reason I'm bringing all that up is is because
the Sixers are trash as hell.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
They done picked up you.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Know playoff podcast p Paul George. A lot of the
young they can say Paul George is the go because
the way that he played whatever. All of the adults
is laughing at the kids. But if the kids believe it,
Paul George, you know what it is. That's all you
can do is just be for a generation. So podcast
(17:20):
p Paul George, playoff p.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
He hit us with a.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Little you know monologue on his podcast. You see it
at all over Twitter, Instagram, social media that he's taken
time off from the podcast to focus on basketball to
help the seventy six ers make a playoff push.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Here's the problem with that.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
The Sixers are ass like there are so many games
below five hundred. The Sixers seventy five percent of their
season is already gone. I think they only have like
twenty six some games left. I'm not a Philadelphia City fan,
like I'm not a Flyers fan. I'm not a Phillies fan,
(18:08):
you know, Like I said, cup of coffee with the Sixers.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
But I'm a diehard Eagles fan.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
But as me being an Eagles fan, I know how
the Philadelphia sports fan thinks, and I know the Philadelphia
sports fan. It's like, where the fuck was you at
in the beginning of the year. You didn't drop all
these podcast episodes. Now you want to focus and lock
in on trying to help us win. I just really
(18:37):
feel like podcast Peak should have did that message in
a whole other way, shutting it down or whatever.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Because.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
What it does is is that it implies that podcast
p is the reason that Paul George ain't playing well.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
The case, the Sixers have an issue with health.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
With Paul George's health and Joelle and Bee's health along
with injuries throughout the rest of the roster, and it
just hasn't been a cohesive season for them. Those are
the reasons why the Sixers the trash, Not because Paul
George spends an hour of his time to record a
(19:25):
podcast and now not let's keep it a buck. Podcast
P got bred? You know what I'm saying, Podcast P
got bred. We have a situation where, you know, and
my bad foot is my train to throw real quick.
But we have a situation where he doesn't have to
(19:49):
do his own production. He doesn't have to record himself,
produce himself, post production himself and all this other stuff.
Podcast P gets to sit down on the set his
co host talking to a microphone for about forty five
minutes to an hour, dip and have everybody else chop
up and produce and edit the podcast and make that
(20:10):
thing work. So you motherfucker's is trying to tell me
that forty five minutes to an hour of talking into
a microphone is the reason why the Philadelphia seventy six
is ass and podcast P needs to stop being podcast
P and try to turn himself into playoff P to
go ahead and get the Philadelphia's seventy six is into
(20:34):
the p the playoffs. I just think that's that's just irresponsible,
irrational thinking. It's just it's just it's just not correct
at all. It's just not correct at all, because there's
so much stuff he could really do in forty five
minutes to an hour that could be detrimental to his basketball.
(20:55):
He could be smoking crack, you know what I mean.
He could be fucking bitches with aids. Those are very extreme.
But my point is that there's so he could be
bungee jumping, he could be, you know, extreme fighting, Like,
there's so much other stuff. You know, he could be
drag racing on some fast and in furious type shit,
(21:16):
you know, street racing type. You know, I mean MMA boxing.
You know. Again, so much other stuff that he could
do in a forty five minutes or hour that could
be a detriment to him on a basketball court or
at least in the due Philadelphia's season.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
So much other stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
But saying that podcast P is the reason, and now
podcast PE gotta make an announcement like, yeah, I'm not
gonna be on.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
The pod for a while. Now.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I don't know if it means because I know he
has sponsors. He has advertisers that he has to adhere
to that he has a contract for us. I don't
know if it's gonna be podcast P without podcast piece.
So it's gonna be Jackie Long and I forget the
the Homies name that you know, co hosts on the
show with them, So it's just gonna be them.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Doing podcast P without podcast P.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Because I can imagine you can't have podcast PEE without
podcast P. But you can't not have podcast P when
you have advertising and sponsors that already spent money on
advertising and bread. So that's something that they're gonna have
to figure out, which is every reason why I'm like, yeah,
there's no way in hell that y'all gonna be.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
It's just really because of the jokes.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Podcast P had more episodes recorded than games played, Like
that was going around type shit, you know what I'm saying,
More minutes on a pod then more minutes on the
floor in the season, Like it was really greasy.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Stats like that, funny stats like that to say the least.
But at the.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Same time, again oversimplification of what's going on with the
Philadelphia seventy six is by saying podcast P is the
reason that the seasons and the shit, because it's not
it's a whole bunch of other stuff. So, you know,
niggas needs lives outside of what they do for a living,
(23:09):
and if podcast P is what he needs, podcast P
is what it is. So hey man, Paul George, fuck
them niggas. Man, get back on the pod, Yo, get
back to recording. Even though I know that contradictory to
what I've been saying about active players who make millions
of dollars are in the podcast space, you know, also
(23:30):
making millions of dollars. It's like, YO, save some of
that opportunity for us, because we can't go to your
job and make millions.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
So don't come to our job it make millions, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
So but again, just for the simple fact that we're
a real nigga and all of that, we're not gonna say.
We're not gonna tell podcast P that recording a podcast
is the reason that his team is losing, because that's
not real.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
And I'm gonna stand on business on that. I stay with.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Podcasts P on that. So love man, this is the
assets experience on Twitter spaces. It ain't too much. You know,
we can expand on starts a little bit more on

anywhere else. So this is the Twitter spaces no mean on.
We recording actually on right now at Haney Hardaway seven five.
Welcome to the situation. Welcome to the show. Uh man,
(00:28):
So a lot of stuff is popping off. There's always
a lot of stuff is popping.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Off or whatever. My bad for being late.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
I was actually on the phone and didn't realize, like,
oh show, we're supposed to be on the Twitter spaces
joint right now.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
No, I mean chopping up with the Twitter world. So
my bad.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
But like I said, man, we got like a lot
of action. We got like a lot of motion popping off.
So let's go ahead and get into the shit, you know,
I mean Twitter all right, so you can see everything
that we're doing in a little rundown whatever. I put
all of the topics that we're gonna run through on
this Twitter Space show real quick. So Hooters is filing bankruptcy.
(01:06):
Now the funny thing about you know, first off, you know,
does Hooters. Let's let let's let's just let's crack the
old school joke at Haney hard at all the SS
experience no either be game experience on Twitter or x
howe you get down out here in these digit streets
all were just type it right now while we're actively
on the Twitter spaces real quick.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Do you go to Hooters for wings? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Nah, if you know you know where that where that
that question that joke came from. So we'll update you
on the poll a little bit later, long as y'all
out here voting and stuff. Because I don't mind Hooters,
Like Hooters is pretty good to me. You know, at
times like sometimes you get like a bad batch, but
most times it's it's pretty cool. But most times people
(01:53):
go to Hooters for the for.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
The vibes and the abians.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
You know what I'm saying, They going to Hooters, you
know what, I mean, to see some Hooters, to see
some you know, the shirts, the orange bottoms and all
of that stuff. That's what pretty much everybody's going to
Hooters for get yourself, some beers, some lick and you know,
have a good time or whatever. And it's in my
surprise that Hooters is filing bankruptcy. I'm not really that surprised.
(02:23):
And here's why. In Columbus, Ohio there's no Hooters. I'm
I'm you know, I'm riding around caause Hooters is kind
of like a little, you know, chill type situation whatever.
You know what I'm saying, ge't some wings catch a
vibe like I told you, And I'm like, damn, there's
no Hooters out here. I'm you know, googling, you know, okay,
or you know, hitting up you know, Apple maps, Hooters,
you know.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Closest Hooters whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Closest Hooters you know from Columbus is uh, Cincinnati, like
right right at the borderline, you know what I'm saying,
entering the county where cincinnatik it's like Butler County and
Hamilton County or something like that. And that's the closest
Hooters that you can get if you're in Columbus. So
nobody's about to drive like a hour and some change
just to go to Hooters. Like I mean, Hooters is
a vibe at times, but it ain't that much of
(03:05):
a vibe, just you know what I'm saying to say
the least to put it out there.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
It's not that much of a vibe.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
But I'm you know, obviously doing research and stuff, and
I'm like, okay, so why there no Hooters out here?
And then you know, you you know, go to their
sites and they have like articles of stuff about it,
and Hooters as a corporation says that in Columbus or
just the people who want to you know, put up
money for Hooters, either they have the money but they
(03:34):
don't have the restaurant experience, or they have the restaurant
experience but they don't have the money. Now I thought
that was like the dumbest reason in the world, because
let's say, if you're a person who you got the
bread to functionally run a restaurant, but you don't have
(03:57):
the experience per se, well, shit, if somebody's putting up
they bred to put some stuff together and you can
hire people to you know, be within the mix. Like okay,
so if you corporate, right, Okay, so you corporate person
says they got they got a million dollars to start
(04:21):
a Hooters, but they don't have as much restaurant experience.
They got business experience, but they don't have restaurant experience.
One or two things should have happened. You hire a
person that has restaurant experience to you know, be GM
type situation or as you know, Hooters corporate office. You
assigned somewhere there to be the day to day to
(04:43):
make sure that it runs because either way, at the
end of the day, you want the money. And the
reason why I'm saying all of this is because Hooters
wouldn't be, you know, filing bankruptcy if they would have
allowed more people to buy into what was going on now.
Is Hooters the best wing? We should probably put that
on the polls as well. It's Hooters the best wings.
(05:04):
I know a lot of people probably say nah, especially
if you in cities like Atlanta where there's so much
other wing options. Besides, Hooters might not be the best thing,
might not be the best place or whatnot. But in
all of my times going to Hooters, it's always been
(05:26):
good energy and good vibe.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
For real.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
The one thing that I didn't know, and I was
talking to somebody when I was recently out of Hooters,
I was at the Hooters out in Roswell, Georgia. I'm like, so,
if you walk in and you see a bar, not
bartender or waitress that you would rather serve, you you
could really just request them.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
And they were like, yeah, customers do it all the time.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
See Now, I always thought like with most waitressing or whatever,
it's on a rotation. People come in based on the
party and you put them in sections. So that way,
every you know, waitress or waiter gets an equal opportunity
to you know, make some money. Now, obviously, if a
(06:10):
dead beat comes to your table in comparison to a
person who's tipping, okay, that's you chalk that up to
the game. But at least you have an opportunity to
you know, serve someone to get some tips.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
So you know, you you know, be at the you know,
at Hooters.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
And it's like, oh okay, so I can just be
like I want her and then like they come in
like it.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I just thought I thought it was kind of, you know, weird.
It's not weird because I guess if you choose it,
you choosey.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
But you know, I'm just thinking like, dang girl in
a rotation, you know what I'm saying. She might not
be right, but she you know, So I just I
just thought about it that way. But then I get
it too, where it's like if you want to have
like and it was kind of making it sound like
the massage part, like, well, if you want the best
experience of that girl, give you the best experience, then
go ahead. And I can kind of feel that because
(07:00):
it'll be sometimes I being Hooters and you know, I'm
sitting there, you know, eating the chilling whatever, and it's
like the girl who I really wanted to be my server,
I'm trying to make eye contact her. I'm trying to
you know, see what's up with her, and then my
waitress come through. It's like, okay, yeah, yeah, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I'm good. I'm good.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
I mean I still tipped her, you know, just because
it's like it's part of the process or whatever. It's
part of the you know, the her work or whatever.
But nah, I wanted the other joint to you know,
come through and serve you. Boy.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
So if that happens a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
But all in all, though, Hooters filing for bankruptcy. Why
is Hooters filing for bankruptcy? Like I said, I mentioned
that you're not allowing everybody with capital to participate for
various reasons, you know, even if they don't have all
(07:49):
of the money, but they have the restaurant experience.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Sure you confront them, you can front them a little bit,
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Kind of make it a de facto corporate office until
you know they earn enough and then it can be
a local French I let them buy them ways into it.
But I know that might be a riskier model, but
at the same time, it gives you opportunity to at
least make some money. So if you want to talk about, okay,
Hooters as an ambiance, Okay, so you know Hooters as Hooters,
(08:18):
you know they have the same image, you know, throughout
no matter where it is, like the Hooters. I will
tell you in Roswell that joints like the size of
a neighborhood bar. Like it's not it doesn't feel like
a full restaurant, like it's really like a neighborhood bar
type shit. But it's a Hooters, you know. So if
you got the bread to get it, get it. And
(08:41):
I'm really trying to feel and believe because I haven't
been to Hooters in a while, Like I said, that
Roswell story at least like two years old. It's you know,
you got your games you know, people come in, you know,
especially if you got like a girl that you like
or whatever that you fuck with.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
You know that you pull up and see or whatever.
You know, certain games.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
So I really don't know why Hooters is filing bankruptcy
because it's just like a bar filing bankruptcy type stuff.
It's like, do you have drinks, yeah, do you have
sports yeah? Is the drinks affordable?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Then you should be able to fully function straight up.
And now you should be able to fully function to
get things going. If money troubles were so bad. I
seen Steak and Shake. They put something up where it
was like, if you got ten thousand dollars, you can
(09:40):
split the profits fifty to fifty of a restaurant, which
Steak and Shake is kind of like a situation. I
mean not everybody's in a Steak and Shake like that,
but the simple fact that they said ten thousands split
the split the profits down the middle of your store.
That's at least Steak in Shake trying to do something
(10:00):
to stay afloat. Yeah, I mean, ten thousand dollars investment,
you know at certain stores might be enough to get
them right to you know, get some some motion and
stuff going who does may just want to go out
of business for real. I mean, like, who knows is
(10:21):
Whoters trying to be with the name in the brand
of Hooters. You can't be a quote unquote family rest rant. Now,
I've been the Hooters plenty of time because I've seen
you know, dad with a kid, families with a kid.
Because the food is you know, good for some people.
I'm not saying it's bad for me. I'm just saying,
(10:42):
like you know, some people love the food just as
much as they loved the ambiance. See if the food
was trash trash, then I more than likely wouldn't go.
But it's decent enough for me to partake. And what's
going on drinks is cool, and it's the vibe and
the ambiance.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
That's pretty much. That's pretty much what it is.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Like the only difference between Hooters and a strip club,
it's just the entertainment factor of the women as far
as the waitress or the damn.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
So that's really pretty much.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It Drinks cool, I mean obviously, like in the Hooters,
I'll always you want to have a drink with me,
Like I know in some Hooters I've been to, they'll
have a drink with you. But most times they don't
have a drink with you. They say they gotta work
and they have to wait until like after shift, and
which is cool too because you know they don't they
(11:35):
don't want them to be lit. Like you're in the
strip club you like ship bartender ticket or the club
bar and Injurer Barxton to take a shot with me,
to wait street, take a shot with me, that's what
they do. But in Hooters restaurant gets it's a little different.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I'm with that. But just the end of real quick,
you just want to know, will you miss Hooters? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
No, put it on the point of the Assets experience.
No E at the beginning of the experience will try
to do that wildly. Twitter spaces is rocking and rolling
real quick, just in case if you're listening.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
All right, so pawning a PS five Now this is.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Hilarious, right Becruse, I was on Instagram and while I'm
on Instagram, you know, scrolling through stuff like that's the
a caption woman pawn sons thirteen year old sons PS
five Because Somen wouldn't use his birthday money to help
with the electric bill. There's so much layers and stuff
(12:42):
to that, It's like we're talking about a mom who's
a bum who isn't considerate of her children and holding
her children accountable to something that she should be doing.
Because now, what you just showed an exasp was is well,
if you can't afford it, pawn your valuables to do
(13:06):
it instead of you don't have the bill, go out
and get the money for it. It's not the kid's responsibility
to give his mom some money.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
For the thirteen year.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Old to give their mom money for the electric bill,
and then he's I mean, I don't know if he's
like nah or he shouldn't know whatever, but you're gonna
take his PS five and pawn that shit for the bread?
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Like, come on, man, Like, that's just it's single parents.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Like that, women mothers, single mothers like that. That really
just make me sick, to be honest with you, Like,
there's so many other situations and stuff where single moms
make me sick. But a single mom to take a
kid's PS five because she needed the money for the
electric bill even though the kid had.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
It, it's insane.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Like even if I the kindness of his heart, he
did give his mom dukes that bread it's not his
responsibility to do that. So I don't hold that in
any sort of regard, like, well, he should have gave
his mom some mon Like he's only.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Thirteen years old, he's not an adult.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Like I give my son money for his grades and stuff,
you know, good work or whatever if I'm down bad
or anything like that. I'm not about to ask him
to give me some money to pay a bill. Hell no,
Like that's not his responsibility to do anything like that.
Like nah, Like that's that's for him to be a child,
(14:37):
to do what they do with And the simple fact
that she took the PS five and pawned it with
like with him in the car riding with them, and
the whipping everything, just like yeah, I'm pawning your shit
because you ain't want to help. It's ridiculous. I'm sorry,
I just I just can't fade it. And just single
moms like that, y'all just really making me sick. I
(14:58):
wish there was like a in an article so I
can read more so I can blast the mother, you know,
prayers out to the kid, you know what I'm saying,
Like if the show had revenue and money like that,
we would definitely send him a PS five just because
you know, that's the type of show that we would
like to be. But we need sponsors, we need advertisers,
(15:18):
we need listeners, we need believers and all of that stuff.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Because that's the type of show that we are.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
We would definitely send that kid a PS five and
some games and be like, hold your head up, young king.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Last thing I want to run into.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
With this Twitter space show real quick, don't forget to
rate review, subscribe, re rate, re review, resubscribe, keep that
process going over and over and over again, so algorithm
could think that we're popping out here in these digital streets.
I'm a Philadelphia Eagles fan, and I'm pretty much a
Philadelphia Eagles fan as far as Philadelphia sports goes. But
(15:53):
I had a couple of coffee, you know, with Alan Iverson,
you know when Iverson was on the Sixes, and you know,
Obvioson's from Va. He's the goat to me or whatever.
So definitely was, you know, a fan of the Sixers.
My Wizards suck ass, by the way, but I'm not,
but since.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Obvious, I don't.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I've just been in the slums with the Wizards. But
I gravitated to the Sixers a little bit because I
rock with Joel Embiid. I rock with Joel and b I.
He's the He's the seventh footer that you created on
a video game that has respectable handles, a jump shot
and can shoot Frea Thos back in NBA Live ninety nine,
(16:34):
two thousand and two thousand and one.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, I'm old.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
I'm talking about Live, not two K, because back then
two K was the bootleg game for basketball and Live
was the shit. You didn't see the big man move
like that. So that's why I rock with Joel and Bid.
The reason I'm bringing all that up is is because
the Sixers are trash as hell.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
They done picked up you.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Know playoff podcast p Paul George. A lot of the
young they can say Paul George is the go because
the way that he played whatever. All of the adults
is laughing at the kids. But if the kids believe it,
Paul George, you know what it is. That's all you
can do is just be for a generation. So podcast
(17:20):
p Paul George, playoff p.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
He hit us with a.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Little you know monologue on his podcast. You see it
at all over Twitter, Instagram, social media that he's taken
time off from the podcast to focus on basketball to
help the seventy six ers make a playoff push.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Here's the problem with that.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
The Sixers are ass like there are so many games
below five hundred. The Sixers seventy five percent of their
season is already gone. I think they only have like
twenty six some games left. I'm not a Philadelphia City fan,
like I'm not a Flyers fan. I'm not a Phillies fan,
(18:08):
you know, Like I said, cup of coffee with the Sixers.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
But I'm a diehard Eagles fan.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
But as me being an Eagles fan, I know how
the Philadelphia sports fan thinks, and I know the Philadelphia
sports fan. It's like, where the fuck was you at
in the beginning of the year. You didn't drop all
these podcast episodes. Now you want to focus and lock
in on trying to help us win. I just really
(18:37):
feel like podcast Peak should have did that message in
a whole other way, shutting it down or whatever.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Because.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
What it does is is that it implies that podcast
p is the reason that Paul George ain't playing well.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
The case, the Sixers have an issue with health.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
With Paul George's health and Joelle and Bee's health along
with injuries throughout the rest of the roster, and it
just hasn't been a cohesive season for them. Those are
the reasons why the Sixers the trash, Not because Paul
George spends an hour of his time to record a
(19:25):
podcast and now not let's keep it a buck. Podcast
P got bred? You know what I'm saying, Podcast P
got bred. We have a situation where, you know, and
my bad foot is my train to throw real quick.
But we have a situation where he doesn't have to
(19:49):
do his own production. He doesn't have to record himself,
produce himself, post production himself and all this other stuff.
Podcast P gets to sit down on the set his
co host talking to a microphone for about forty five
minutes to an hour, dip and have everybody else chop
up and produce and edit the podcast and make that
(20:10):
thing work. So you motherfucker's is trying to tell me
that forty five minutes to an hour of talking into
a microphone is the reason why the Philadelphia seventy six
is ass and podcast P needs to stop being podcast
P and try to turn himself into playoff P to
go ahead and get the Philadelphia's seventy six is into
(20:34):
the p the playoffs. I just think that's that's just irresponsible,
irrational thinking. It's just it's just it's just not correct
at all. It's just not correct at all, because there's
so much stuff he could really do in forty five
minutes to an hour that could be detrimental to his basketball.
(20:55):
He could be smoking crack, you know what I mean.
He could be fucking bitches with aids. Those are very extreme.
But my point is that there's so he could be
bungee jumping, he could be, you know, extreme fighting, Like,
there's so much other stuff. You know, he could be
drag racing on some fast and in furious type shit,
(21:16):
you know, street racing type. You know, I mean MMA boxing.
You know. Again, so much other stuff that he could
do in a forty five minutes or hour that could
be a detriment to him on a basketball court or
at least in the due Philadelphia's season.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
So much other stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
But saying that podcast P is the reason, and now
podcast PE gotta make an announcement like, yeah, I'm not
gonna be on.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
The pod for a while. Now.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I don't know if it means because I know he
has sponsors. He has advertisers that he has to adhere
to that he has a contract for us. I don't
know if it's gonna be podcast P without podcast piece.
So it's gonna be Jackie Long and I forget the
the Homies name that you know, co hosts on the
show with them, So it's just gonna be them.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Doing podcast P without podcast P.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Because I can imagine you can't have podcast PEE without
podcast P. But you can't not have podcast P when
you have advertising and sponsors that already spent money on
advertising and bread. So that's something that they're gonna have
to figure out, which is every reason why I'm like, yeah,
there's no way in hell that y'all gonna be.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
It's just really because of the jokes.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Podcast P had more episodes recorded than games played, Like
that was going around type shit, you know what I'm saying,
More minutes on a pod then more minutes on the
floor in the season, Like it was really greasy.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Stats like that, funny stats like that to say the least.
But at the.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Same time, again oversimplification of what's going on with the
Philadelphia seventy six is by saying podcast P is the
reason that the seasons and the shit, because it's not
it's a whole bunch of other stuff. So, you know,
niggas needs lives outside of what they do for a living,
(23:09):
and if podcast P is what he needs, podcast P
is what it is. So hey man, Paul George, fuck
them niggas. Man, get back on the pod, Yo, get
back to recording. Even though I know that contradictory to
what I've been saying about active players who make millions
of dollars are in the podcast space, you know, also
(23:30):
making millions of dollars. It's like, YO, save some of
that opportunity for us, because we can't go to your
job and make millions.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
So don't come to our job it make millions, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
So but again, just for the simple fact that we're
a real nigga and all of that, we're not gonna say.
We're not gonna tell podcast P that recording a podcast
is the reason that his team is losing, because that's
not real.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
And I'm gonna stand on business on that. I stay with.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Podcasts P on that. So love man, this is the
assets experience on Twitter spaces. It ain't too much. You know,
we can expand on starts a little bit more on
the pod, but if you didn't listen to the Twitter
spaces on Twitter, it will be available on the SS
