Ever wondered how a week of rain could turn mundane chores into a series of hilarious misadventures? From our attempts at mowing the lawn in a downpour to dealing with water-stained truck seats, we spill the beans on how our outdoor plans took a wild turn. We also share some light-hearted family updates, including the ages and health quirks of our relatives, and recount a funny incident involving an airsoft pellet and our new studio TV. The quieter work week gave us time to catch our breath—until the last-minute hustle set in.
Grocery shopping, whether online or in-store, has its own set of challenges and unexpected twists. We candidly discuss our early morning struggles, the chaos of having too many cats, and the peculiar ways groceries are bagged during pickup orders. Ever had a single item packed in three bags? We've been there, and we're here to laugh about it! Plus, there’s the story of the time we forgot the side dishes and the ongoing saga of organizing our pantry.
Our journey down memory lane is filled with YouTube gems and nostalgic TV shows. From unboxing lost mail with our favorite YouTube couple to reminiscing about "The Middle" and its non-existent connection to "Malcolm in the Middle," we cover it all. And let’s not forget our deep dive into the Netflix documentary "Dirty Pop," which unravels the scandalous story of NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys' fraudulent manager. Join us for a mix of humor, family tales, and nostalgic reflections that are sure to entertain and amuse!

Only bad thing about the rainis I was getting used to the
grass not growing, but now youcut it, and the next day.
Well, matter of fact that's yourfavorite pastime I know, but
not yesterday, because me andnicholas was cutting grass and
it came a downpour.
We thought it was just going togo by, so we kept.

I was weed eating, he wascutting and I finally just
whistled at him and pointed topark it under the garage.
We waited it out for about 10minutes.
It wasn't letting up, so weloaded everything up in the rain

repel.
You know, I bought thatScotchgard or something.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Half the week, half the week.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
It was nice, got some stuff done.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Just because.
I mean, why are you saying nice, it was quiet?
Just because it was quiet?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Didn't have to do stuff for everybody.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Not that you mean that other people aren't there.
You're just meaning that itjust seems like you can get more
stuff done.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Yeah, they weren't there I'm just trying to make it
not sound so bad well, you knowhow it is when people there and
they want you to do this andthis and this look, if it's me,
I don't want nobody around, so Imean, I'm just trying to dig
you out of hell.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Everybody knows how I , how I am.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
I ain't in no hole.
Yeah, you ain't got to dig meout, they know.
Yeah, so it was quiet Until thelast day.
And then everybody.
Then people come in when youwork half a day, and then they
all come in at one time wantingstuff.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Just a reminder.
You work at our church in theoffice for people that don't
know, so it can be busy at times.
It can, it can be crazy, youhave people come in that we
don't know asking for stuff,needing stuff, questions, all
kinds of stuff.
Need to help church members andyou're the go-to person because
(06:02):
you know it all.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, why, why, why?
I don't know what made mechoose this.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
It's very strange, though.
You know, we built a newsanctuary and y'all are at the
furthest point from the newsanctuary.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
So if y'all have to go, over there.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
It takes about five minutes to walk through all the
hallways down steps.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
We get our steps in.
Sometimes we'll get up and justsay, hey, let's go walk.
We just get up and go.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
when you've been sitting at the computer all day,
you know that'd be in theevening time, not right now,
especially even August with theheat, but that's a perfect place
to walk.
Just walk around, take youforever to walk around.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
You just make a loop, yeah, around the campus From
one end to the other.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Yeah, but there's several members of the church
that do that in the evening time.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Or do it early in the morning.
That's what you ought to do.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I think we got a couple that do it early in the
morning.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Do Mm-hmm, would you ever do that?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Would I do it.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
All right, let me go back.
I would I have done it.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Let me go back In our gym.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Say, a month ago you had some kind of thing that you
did to where you were getting upat 5 o'clock.
You just did it for a week.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Like a challenge, mm-hmm, did you make it the full
week?
No, we're saying a week.
Are you talking about sevendays or five days?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Well, they just done it five days, she just yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
So it was it five days Well it was Sunday.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
No, no, no, no, no, it wasn't.
It was Monday through Friday.
Monday through Friday, yeah, soI made it.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
How'd it go?
Struggle Struggle bus.
Yeah, so was it easier towardsthe end, or was it the same, or
was it harder?
Speaker 1 (07:41):
It was easier, but, needless to say, I didn't keep
doing it.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Did you ask yourself why am I doing this?
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, it was nice because I got up and read some
on the Bible app, I actually hadcoffee, I actually went outside
and looked at the sunrise.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What I know First.
I've heard of this Yep, that'snice, the sunrises are nice.
Nice, are they not?
Yeah, I'm sure they look nice.
I'm sure they weren't cloudy ornothing those days that you did
it.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
It rained a couple of days.
That's what I'm saying.
That's the thing about my job.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I see the sunrise every day for the most part.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
And some.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Some of them are pretty doggone.
Awesome Yep.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
They are pretty, sunrises are pretty.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
So you got up early for this challenge, but did you
find too much time on your hands?
You're like you know, I've lost.
I could have been.
What time do you normally getup?
Well, you get up what at six.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
I still get up at six , six, ten, depending.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Well, that's not.
I'm thinking you had like anhour and a half.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
No, I didn't have but an hour.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I know several retired guys from the church
that they get up early.
I actually know one of thedeacons that he might wake up at
one o'clock in the morning andthat's the time that he goes in
there and reads his bible andstudies.
He feels like that's the timegod allotted for him to yeah you
(09:15):
know to take that's good yeah,because he can't sleep or
whatever.
So I thought.
You know that's a pretty goodway of of uh looking.
Yeah, Because you know, reallylike, especially with our age,
it's really easy to say you getcaught up in daily tasks and all
that stuff and I ain't got time, I didn't have time to open my
Bible, I didn't have time toread those verses that I planned
(09:36):
on reading.
But we've all got time.
We just don't take the time.
That's the problem, Because youknow we've got time to watch
Netflix.
Right, we've got time to dothis Watch 20 minutes.
Yep, yep, so.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
That was the point of our challenge, and apparently,
I didn't learn.
What do you mean?
Because I didn't keep doing it.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Oh, is everybody else still doing it?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I think it depends on your job and your lifestyle and
all that too.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I would probably say something like instead of
setting 5 o'clock for everybody,I would say everybody needs to
challenge yourself and get up anhour earlier than they normally
do.
Yeah, because some people mightsleep later before they have to
go to work and some peoplemight have to get up earlier.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
So I think that would be a better challenge.
I wouldn't do the challenge,forget that get up early anyway.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
That's what I'm saying.
I can't even get you to stay inthe bed on saturdays.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Don't set your alarm on saturdays I wake up at my
normal time, like when I get upon Saturdays.
That's fine, but I'm justsaying I don't get up.
But I set my alarm, so after Ifall back asleep I will get up.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
I hate that alarm.
I hate it.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I'm going to miss something.
I'm going to miss somethinggoing on in the day.
I've got to get up and check itout.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You're not, I promise .
Speaker 2 (11:06):
I promise you're not.
You're not, I don't know.
The last time I would say thelatest I sleep is six.
That's like on Sunday mornings.
I get up at 5.50.
I set my alarm for 5.50.
I know, and you would think I'dbe able to sleep late.
But I just got things to do.
I got a lot of people dependingon me, a lot of critters
depending on me.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Well, you got that right.
Them critters about to gobye-bye.
Yeah, come get them.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
But back to that.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Who needs a free kitten?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah, oh, for real, I wish this was like a local.
I wish this was a local radiostation that we were doing right
now and that way we knew localpeople were listening.
Free kittens we got freekittens Any size, shape, color,
age.
We got them.
We got four that just startedwalking.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Oh my gosh, I need them gone.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
We got four that's probably 10 weeks old, and then
we got three adult female cats.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
They got to be gone, y'all.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I don't know what to do.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
They got to be gone.
That's what we do.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
This is going to be a cat farm before we do it and I
can't take it anymore.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
They're about to go see how they swim.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
They're using the gravel driveway.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
I can't stand it.
It smells yeah as their.
Litter box.
Yeah, I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
I can finish your sentence.
I was going to say their crapstation.
Every time I walk out we got somany cats.
Every time one of them's hikedup there letting it rip and he
just keeps feeding them.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
I'm like stop feeding them, they will go away.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
I don't think they will.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
I think they will.
Let's try it.
Stop feeding them, okay,speaking of feeding.
Speaking of feeding, I haven'tbeen fed so far tonight.
I gotta go, well, get fed.
So y'all know how he harped onme about the groceries last week
did I you want to talk aboutgroceries this week?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
tell us the story.
Two trip, tell the wholeeverything you know.
Two trips, all that stuff, whatyou did, how much.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Well, I had to make two trips because you can't buy
frozen items on grocery pickup.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
You still can't do that.
You can't do that at Walmartstill no, and I'm mad.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
What is the deal?
I don't know.
I asked the lady that'schecking me out.
She didn't have no clue what Iwas talking about Bologna.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
They've got to know.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I don't know, she probably didn't.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Was she new?
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah, I'm sure, anyway.
So Thursday I get groceries$200 and Whoa $239.
$239.
Now I like to keep my grocerybill under $150.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
It seemed like a lot.
I made a lot of trips to thecar.
It seemed like.
But I want you to finish yourstory and then I've got
something to say about these.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Yeah, we'll talk about that.
Yeah, all right, so we got itall out.
So I usually get all thegroceries out of the bag and put
them on the bags and put themon the bar.
And Jody puts up the cannedstuff, because he's OCD and he
like puts everything togetherand he rotates them out.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
That's just the grocery.
You know like canned stuffreally needs to be rotated
because it's got like a two-yearshelf life but you better watch
it.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
But we've had some in there for 10 years, you won't
think about it.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Next thing you know, two years has gone by and
there's a can of raviolis from2019 got pushed back in there.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
So, anyway, oh, 239 hurt my heart and then he's like
good, we need to keep doingthat.
So I'm like okay.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
So did I inspire you by saying that, or did you
already have plans?
No, I already had plans, butwhy didn't you do it all at one
time?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Well, I can't do it at one time, because the next
trip I made was nothing butfrozen food.
When I went on Saturday, wasnothing but frozen food.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Hold on, I thought you couldn't get frozen stuff.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
I went in Walmart and bought frozen food.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Oh, I did not know that, yes, what happened?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
So I had to go in Walmart, so I had to walk by the
clothes and a darn t-shirtjumped in the cart and I had to
buy a t-shirt.
So see, that's why I don't goin Walmart.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
First I heard of this .
I guess that's another reasonwhy he said I don't need help
unloading the groceries.
Is that why?
Speaker 1 (15:40):
I did not say that I wasn't even here.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I was cutting grass in the rain, remember.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
That's right.
Nicholas unloaded groceries.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah, he did.
I got back before.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Well, me and him was together at that time when I was
talking.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
You were talking about when I was going to your
mom's when you was at your mom's.
Yeah, okay, okay, that's when Igot back.
So I go get my oil changed atSpeedy Oil.
I don't even know if I wasthere five minutes.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Is that the name of it?
No, I just named it.
I just named it because I'mlike wow, I would not go to an
old changing place if it wascalled Speedy Oil.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Why not it just?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
sounds a little shady , nah.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Well, they done better than your, carl Cannon.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Oh, I used them for the first time.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I didn't mean to name drop that, but oh, anyway, yeah
, so, oops, it did not.
Ten minutes I was in and out ofthere, then I had to go to
Walmart.
Oh, then I spent anotherhundred and thirty something
(16:47):
dollars, so I spent four hundreddollars on groceries, minus the
T-shirt.
Ten dollars.
Ok, take a $10 off, Give me the$10.
So $120.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Okay, and what was your other one the day before?
Speaker 1 (17:04):
$239.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
So $340.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Round it up.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That's a lot of round Round it up.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
That's a lot of taxes .
Speaker 2 (17:11):
If we paid that much.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
I was throwing the oil in there.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Okay.
Well then, yeah, there's 400.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
So yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
I still don't feel like it's full.
You didn't look in the freezer.
I never look in the freezer.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Yeah, you never look in the pantry.
I know I buy you junk andsnacks and you'll be like I wish
I had some snack.
Well, if you'd look in thepantry, it's been in there for
two weeks.
That's why I quit buying stuff,because y'all don't eat it.
It just sits in there.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Well, I don't snack like I used to.
I used to snack like crazySnack before supper.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
You did.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Snack after supper Bowl of cereal.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
You used to eat a bowl of cereal.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
After supper how crazy is that, and I wouldn't
even think Sniff on in there.
I wouldn't Stop it.
Please, no, back to the order.
I have a question for all thelisteners out there.
Surely, how many people do youthink does the online ordering
(18:13):
at Walmart?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I feel like it's a bunch, but you know, every time
I get there there's at leastfour cars parked in those spots
with nobody in them.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Yeah, but I'm just thinking I wonder how many
people actually use the onlineordering.
What percent?
I mean?
It seemed like it'd be a lot,but it's really going to be a
small number.
Anyway, yeah, I don't think it'sprobably as much as we think it
is, so for the listeners outthere that are hearing us right
now that do the online ordering.
(18:50):
Online ordering when you getyour walmart pickup, do you get
groceries with one item in everysingle bag?
We will have 35 bags with 35items and they'll put them in
the back of your car that'sridiculous.
Yeah, we've got so many talkabout waste yeah, I was thinking
(19:13):
I thought we're you know,everybody's supposed to go green
and try and do better on allthis stuff.
I mean I've got a can of greenbeans in one bag and that's it.
Then I got a can of vegetablesoup in another bag and then I
got a pack of cheese in anotherbag.
So I mean I've got three items.
I got three separate bags, butthe whole thing.
There was not one single, therewas not two items.
(19:36):
I'll take that back.
There was one that yourcleaning detergent stuff.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Oh, and the paper plates and the paper plates.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Well, thank you for putting those together, I mean.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yeah, but that was Now.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
my paper plates smell like laundry soap, so that was
the only bag that had two items.
Everything else just had oneitem in it it was crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
It was crazy, absolutely ridiculous, but it's
every time it wasn't as bad.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Yeah, it's, I mean every time, I don't think I've
ever seen it this bad because Idon't buy that much well, I'm
just saying but my goodness, Imean walmart's losing money if
they're doing this.
I guess it's the way that theydo their pickup order when
they're going through.
I'm there when they're pickingthe orders from the shelves and
(20:22):
stuff.
Yeah, so if you've got like oneitem, but if you only can, Al.
But if you've only got like oneor two items or maybe one, I
think they're going ahead andbagging it and putting it in
their little cart thing, andwhen they're going to the next
aisle to get the snacks, theyhaven't kept that bag out to put
some snacks in it too.
So I think that's how that'shappening.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Well, they've got to be losing money, though, with
bags, but those pickers orwhatever they're called Pickers,
yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I mean, they're rushing around too, so they're
just doing whatever.
You know, they're just tryingto get the order picked and all
that.
So it's no fault of them, but Idon't know if they're being
trained that way or they're alljust doing it.
I'm just tired of these bags.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
It's crazy it is, but it's good for our food bank
because they need bags.
So that's where they went.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
That's where.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
I took them.
I went in there.
When I took the bags in therethe other day, they had like a
whole pallet of chicken and abiscuit and all the nabisco
stuff right there.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
If you go, look in your pantry is there some?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
you might have got some chicken.
Anyway, what I was gonna say, Ihad a thought.
I had an evil thought in myhead.
I thought about grabbing a boxof chicken and a biscuit and
walking out.
But I knew it wasn't the rightthing to do.
So I didn't Because I wasthinking they won't miss it.
Look at how many they got.
But you can't think like thatright.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Nope.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
I wish I had chicken and a biscuit right now.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Well, you got some in there.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
I wish you'd go get it for me.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Well, I can't get it.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Pause this thing for a minute.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Pause yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
I've got two raspberry filled donuts in there
that I think I'm going to eat.
You know, it's like 830 atnight, Sunday night, and I'm
thinking about eating tworaspberry donuts.
Speaker 1 (22:06):

I know We'll find you somethingto eat.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
We got chicken.
Oh yeah, B yeah boughtrotisserie and then bought a
piece chicken box.

eight-count chicken piece.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Never crossed my mind of the sides.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I said okay the side.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Okay, until you just now mentioned it.

Why do you just keep thinkingthat I had a thing for this week
?
I'm stuck on this Roadsideoddities.
I don't know why I like lookingat all this stuff.
I'd like to go see some of it.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Before you get on to that, can we talk about one
place in Alabama we need to goto?
Yeah, it's in ScottsboroAlabama.
It's called Untsboro Alabama.
It's called Unclaimed Baggage.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I guess I'm going to choke on my own spit there.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
She got all choked up over it.
What in the world.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
We've been there.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I know I'm telling everybody.
I'm sure a lot of people knowabout it, but they've never been
the first time we went.
Do you want to tell the storyor do you want me to tell the
story?
Speaker 1 (24:16):
You tell it All right .
Speaker 2 (24:18):
You don't remember, oh well.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Oh, yeah, yeah yeah.
That's the first time we went.
First time we went.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
Okay, all right.
So we've always heard aboutunclaimed baggage, never really
knew what it looked like, how itwas set up, anything like that.
But basically, uh, I think 1970is when this thing started.
I think they've got two sites,yeah, but they get.
Uh, there's a certain timeperiod that the airlines, they
(24:47):
keep people's lost luggage, youknow, for a certain amount of
time until they're just neverclaimed, and then they sell that
those items and apparently,this, this place.
I don't know if they're themain people that get it or
started or whatever, but anyway.
So we heard about this place inscottsboro.
We'd always talked about it.
We thought, well, let's go upthere one day.
(25:10):
So we did so, we, we got thereand when we got there there was
food trucks in the parking lot.
Joker was packed out.
I was like this is the way itis, it's a saturday man.
So we we, you know pulled inthe parking lot.
We're just in line extraparking lot.
(25:30):
Yeah, we weren't in the parkinglot, we were like the over there
on the side street parking lot,so much parking that they
actually they had golf carts ohyeah they came and peeked you up
and took you to the, to thebuilding, and this was amazing.
I was like this is unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I can't believe it's like this we didn't know what
was about, didn't?
Speaker 2 (25:50):
know what was about to walk into.
So we're getting the golf cartand riding and the guy that was
driving said so you're here forthe ski sale.
And I was like, excuse me, Idon't know.
I didn't know what he meant, Ihad no idea.
Ski sale, what is he saying?
What does that mean?
Ski sale?
It's their winter time.
(26:11):
They have a sale on their ski.
He said it's the biggest day ofthe year for them and that's
the day that we went to claimbaggage.
We're like how stupid is this,how crazy is.
But I don't know, all theirwinter like apparel and skis and
gloves and all this stuff butwe didn't buy skis, did we?
(26:31):
no, I'm gonna do anything.
You didn't even get a chance toreally look.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Oh, I couldn't yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
We stayed like two hours in the men's section.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
And then you go to the women's and there, yeah, no,
you don't have any room.
Yeah, I was done.
I mean yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
So it's like a big, almost like a department store.
I guess you'd say.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Yeah, it's set up kind of like that.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
And then you've got on one end of the building.
It's kind of like anelectronics type thing and all
that.
So you've got, you know,expensive sunglasses.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah, they got sunglasses and books and jewelry
.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Laptops yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Gaming systems, purses Sheets.
You know they had watches, youknow, yeah, and this stuff, a
lot of some.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Some of the stuff, like they had a watch that was
over two thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Oh, they had a lot of expensive stuff, a lot of
expensive.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
But you also find expensive stuff really cheap, so
you just have to look.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Yeah, you have to be willing to stay and look and
look.
And some of the stuff you gotto know what you're looking for.
And some of the stuff you gotto know what you're looking for,
like you got to know if you'relooking for something expensive.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
You could very easily overlook something that's
expensive that you didn't know.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, because it's been crowded every time we've
went.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
It has, but it wasn't nothing like that.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Yeah, but nothing like that.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Yeah, but I loaded up on shirts, you sure did Sports
jacket.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
That yeah, but I loaded up on shirts.
You sure did Sports jacket.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
If we get a suit, we go there.
We don't go to men's warehouse.
No no no, we go to baggageclaim.
What's it called?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Baggage claim.
I can't think of what it'scalled.
We're not at the airport.
Where's your baggage claim area?
What's it called?
Speaker 1 (28:11):
unclaimed baggage.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
My goodness Long day huh.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Yeah, I'm done.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
It's fun.
So if you've never been there,I don't know, maybe you live
close.
Well now, they have.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Since we've been, they've done a little museum
thing, and that's been justwithin the last couple of years,
because that hadn't always beenthere.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Yeah, I think that last year when that Because that
was actually it was on the newsLike Fox, maybe I remember
seeing that.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Yeah, I remember Something, but I remember One of
them.
I do remember seeing it.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
But it's it's stuff.
It's that's you know, some oldstuff or whatever that they've
you know, gotten or have foundor was sent to them.
Whatever is unclaimed baggageand it's they're not selling it
there.
It's like worthy for a museumtype stuff.
So that's pretty neat.
But I mean the museum it'snothing huge.
(29:09):
Don't make a trip up there justto go to the museum.
I mean it's nothing like that.
It's just a few things that areinteresting to look at.
But yeah, if you just want tocheck it out and try and find
some deals, you'll definitelyfind them.
If you just want to fightthrough the people, yeah.
And I bet they have too, likecertain times of the year they
have clearance, you know, likeon summer apparel.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
I think they do, because I think we went one time
when they had some stuff, yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
So I don't know how you would hit it.
Just right to know.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I mean it's how far is it from us?
Is it two hours, Two and a halfhours?
I?
Speaker 2 (29:43):
don't think it's quite that far.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Is it not?
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I think two hours, I don't know it's an easy trip for
us on a Saturday.
If that's something you want todo, do that.
Spend a few hours, just workyour way back.
Yeah, mentone's just a littlebit further.
We did that.
One time there was anotherpallet place when we were into
looking for you know palletstuff, quantities.
(30:12):
What was the?
You know what I'm talking about.
It was a big warehouse thingbut they had stuff outside.
It was stuff that.
Oh, sister, sister, sister Idon't know, it was stuff you got
mad because they got on to usfor going inside.
Yeah, I did not know.
They've got a huge warehousefull of stuff and I walk inside
and they're like whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa.
(30:32):
What inside?
And they're like whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa, what I said, just
outside, just the stuff that'soutside.
They had pallets of stuffeverywhere but we didn't know,
yeah.
So I was like, forget this, Ididn't like their attitude, so
they didn't get my business, butthey just had.
You know, it might be likedewalt toolboxes that are boxed
up.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
You don't know if they're damaged or anything like
that, but they weren't cheaper,though were they?
Speaker 2 (30:55):
this one was not that that great a deal, so, but that
was just something that wefound along the way too, but
they were busy oh yeah, I mean,I think they're actually, I
think I think seen a thingthey're going out of business
really yeah well, they shouldlet more people inside the shop
instead of staying outside likethat guess, so Right there.
Yeah, change your attitude.
You might stay open a littlebit longer Speaking of that.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
today I watched on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
You watched YouTube.
I did watch YouTube.
You don't normally watchYouTube, do you?
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Well, I had to go to work for just a little bit, so I
can't sit in there quiet.
So I just pulled up YouTube andI watched this couple that I'm
not really watching it.
I'm listening to it because I'mworking, but they, um, they buy
mail that has been lost orwhatever.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
And um, I really want to do that.
I really think I want to dothat.
Yeah, you can buy like $200worth of they tell you how much
you get right, Of course youdon't know what you're getting.
You just the quantity.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Right.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
So many boxes or so much weight that you're getting.
Is it the same one that I'vewatched?
We've watched before.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
A husband and a wife.
Yeah, I don't think you likethem.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yeah, I mean, he does toys too, right I?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
think so he does something else, yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
They're really slow in opening packages and stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Well, they like to talk and they just.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
I don't know.
I'm like get to it, show uswhat you got and go on.
But my thing is is a lot of thestuff they open is like
clothing from Timu and stufflike that.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
It is.
I'm like I don't want thatstuff.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Yeah, you know I'm to get it and you don't know what
it is, and as long as you're notputting too much money into it,
you know I would rather do likethe youtube channel we watch
jamie and sarah that buys thepalette of merchandise for like
five or six hundred dollars butthey don't do that anymore yeah,
they're doing like uh,renovating houses and stuff like
(32:49):
that.
They made big time.
Yep, I don't know they they didone another day did they not
too long ago.
Yeah, they do it every once in awhile.
It ain't like you know, theywere doing it constant, right,
but I think they were makinggood money off of all that to
where they've kind of venturedoff into buying property and
stuff.
But yeah, shout out.
Places were closer shout out tojamie and sarah.
(33:09):
Even though they're in michigan, we like watching them.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Yeah, we should make a trip to Michigan and buy some
power.
No, thank you, I'm not going toMichigan.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Why.
I just don't have any need togo to Michigan, fine.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
So that's what we've done this week yeah, nothing.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
Nothing.
You make it sound like nothing.
I feel like I've worked my buttoff all week.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
You have, yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Oh my goodness, is it the middle?
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Yeah, peacock, don't let me mess you up.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Go ahead, I don't know, I just know it's always on
when I walk through.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
When I get on a series, it's like I want to
watch it.
That's all I want to do.
I want to sit there and I wantto watch it and finish it.
So that's what I've been doingso.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
I don't understand, did you say, wasn't it?
I thought it was Malcolm in theMiddle the whole time that you
were watching it.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
But then I find out it's just the middle so Malcolm
in the Middle was first.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
I don't know and then this is a spin off from that
maybe I'm not positive on that.
So seems like a little neatshow, but I like it.
I would have to watch it fromthe beginning.
I don't want to just start inthe middle.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Well, in the middle.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Yeah Well, I wasn't trying to be funny but I guess I
was I guess you was.
We also watched on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Dirty Pop.
Yeah, you better explain thatone.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Dirty Pop.
It's the guy that formed orfound NSYNC and Backstreet Boys.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
And then some other boy bands a little bit further
down that wasn't as popular.
You might have heard of them,but they didn't really hit it
big or anything.
And spoiler alert if you'regoing to watch it and you don't
know what, and you don't want toknow what happens or whatever,
then turn this off right now,because I'm going to tell you.
(35:10):
But anyway, the guy was he.
Just he lied about everything,right.
He stole people's money.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Well, he was first into the airplane thing, right,
and that's how he kind of gothis money he, he, he, he bought
airplanes yeah and he basicallyleased them out to companies and
to rock bands and all thisstuff.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
And that's how he made his money, uh, to finance
these boy bands.
And then he, he just hadconnections everywhere and like
in saint we're not in saint uh,backstreet boys, they started in
germany, I didn't know this.
They made it big in germanybefore they ever made it big
here.
They said they would come backhere.
(35:53):
Nobody knew who they were.
But in germany he said it waslike the beatles, you know,
everybody knew him and was goingcrazy over him.
But anyway, long story short,uh, I think all these bands sued
this guy because he wasstealing their money and all
this stuff, and then come tofind out everything he was a
fraud, the whole thing, thewhole thing.
(36:13):
He never had airplanes, he neverleased them out to people, but
what he did was just paperworkand stuff.
He forged stuff and bankrecords and all this and had
people just giving him hundredsof thousands of dollars.
It was a Ponzi scheme, is whatit was.
So he was getting all thismoney and then finally got to a
point where he couldn't he thatrevolving cash flow he had that
(36:37):
he could keep people off hisback.
Well, he just got so, so muchthat he took from people.
They said that it might be asmuch as $500 million that he
took Wow, but he was living itup the house he showed and all
that.
But he went to jail, died injail all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
I think I fell asleep at the end of it.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Need to go watch it again.
Sorry, I just spoiled it foryou.
He died in jail.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Thanks, I think I'm good.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
But it was pretty interesting.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
It was like four parts.
It was a Sunday and it'sraining.
What else do you do when it's arainy Sunday?
You take a nap.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Is that what you do?
Speaker 1 (37:18):

Speaker 2 (37:21):
I feel bad after I take a nap.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
I feel lousy.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
I'm talking lousy, so it's not worth it for me to try
and take a nap.
Speaker 1 (37:31):

Anything else.
Speaker 1 (37:34):

Speaker 1 (39:42):
Here's a quarter dime .
Speaker 2 (39:44):
Just don't have the same.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Who cares?
Speaker 2 (39:48):

Was that a place?
Is that what you're talkingabout?
It didn't say where it was.
Okay, you're just talking abouta specific item.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
Somebody just saw it and said an oddity for today's
generation because they don't.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
They don't know if you're a teenager now to think
back of having a phone that'scorded to the wall and you could
only walk so far because youknow it's hooked to the wall.
Or a answering machine.
Do you remember answeringmachines?
Yeah, yeah, you'd come home andthe light would be flashing and
you'd go hit the button andit'd tell you got four messages,
(40:26):
or when caller id showed up.
You know all this kind of stuff.
That's like if you were outsidedoing something and you're
trying to wait on a phone callthat you knew you.
You just waited inside becausethere was no.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
I mean, it's crazy to think and it wasn't to sit
around and wait.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
Yeah, and it wasn't that long ago, yeah, but all
these little things that thesekids nowadays have no clue.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Especially the phone booth is funny.
I know the phone booth is funny.
I think we should go back to it.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
You think so yeah?

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Oh, I'm speaking for the people You're speaking for
the people.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
I like that what we had.
To come back inside and record.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I know right.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
It's raining, been raining all week.
No, we went, we needed rain.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
We went July.
It wasn't the driest monthwe've ever had on record, but we
went for like three weeks withlike nothing, no rain or
anything, never saw a drop.
And then this week I don't evenknow if it stopped raining.
This week it has rained everyday.
I think it's rained every day.
(01:04):
The water's down.
I kind of thought the waterwould go back up some it is well
.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
That don't make any sense.
Why is it down if it's rainedevery day?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
well, that means they're running they're running
the turbines.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Yeah, so they're pulling water.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
If they weren't pulling water, it would go up a
little bit.
Yeah, I like the rain.
Only bad thing about the rainis I was getting used to the
grass not growing, but now youcut it, and the next day.
Well, matter of fact that's yourfavorite pastime I know, but
not yesterday, because me andnicholas was cutting grass and
it came a downpour.
We thought it was just going togo by, so we kept.
(01:38):
I was weed eating, he wascutting and I finally just
whistled at him and pointed topark it under the garage.
We waited it out for about 10minutes.
It wasn't letting up, so weloaded everything up in the rain
.
So we got wet.
The seats in the truck got wet.
It was a cold ride home.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
And your seats in the truck are weird when they get
wet.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I know they show spots.
Yeah, it's weird.
No, I don't like that, thatfabric.
It's weird when they get wet, Iknow.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
They show spots.
Yeah, it's weird.
No, I don't like that, thatfabric, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
It's weird fabric.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Is it weird?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Well, I, mean it's regular fabric but it doesn't
repel.
You know, I bought thatScotchgard or something.
I bought some stuff to put onthere to clean it and then to
put on there to repel water, andguess what?
I never did.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
So my dad's grass didn't get finished.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
It looks pretty awesome right now because it was
high and it's got like twoloops around it.
He said it wasn't bad Listen.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
He said he cut it.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Let me tell you the last time you know he called you
and wanted to know if I wascoming down there to cut it
because it had been a couple ofweeks.
Got down there Was not bad atall.
Went down there yesterdayLooked terrible.
He said he got there, was notbad at all.
Went down there yesterdaylooked terrible.
I'm like I'm talking like twoyears to the knees and he saw it
(02:51):
could have waited.
Oh, we could have waitedanother week.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I was gonna get it and he got his lawnmower fixed
and I was like you've got to bekidding me I mean, but he is 70
something years old and is he?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
got copd and I mean, yeah, he don't need to be doing
anything.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yeah, I've told him every other week I'm gonna cut
it, he's 70, I was gonna sayhe's not that old he might be
right at 70 but he is what I'mgonna be.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Oh, I'm just gonna be , you know, just like he does,
just the opposite well, we'regonna have to live separate well
, whatever, whatever it takesyou said it I can't do when you
want to start it bye tomorrowyeah, tomorrow, there you go
anyway I got a room done for thewell, it's not done for the

Speaker 1 (03:52):
That don't work.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
That's on the floor.
Well, it does work.
It's just got a line through it.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Why.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Because somebody shot an airsoft pellet into it.
Wasn't me, wasn't me, wasn'tyou.
So but you know he did pay forit.
He got another TV, he paid forit.
That ain't the point.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Oh, I know, I know he should have paid us for that
one.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, don't ask for me to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
He should have paid us for that one, because that's
not equal.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
There ain't nothing wrong with this TV.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
He got a 32 inch we had a 60 inch Still good yeah,
whatever.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Anyway, been a good week.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Has it?
What all did you do this week?
Good answer yeah, I was at workall week by myself.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
What do this week?
Good answer yeah, I was at workall week by myself.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Were you.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Not all week.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Half the week, half the week.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
It was nice, got some stuff done.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Just because.
I mean, why are you saying nice, it was quiet?
Just because it was quiet?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Didn't have to do stuff for everybody.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Not that you mean that other people aren't there.
You're just meaning that itjust seems like you can get more
stuff done.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Yeah, they weren't there I'm just trying to make it
not sound so bad well, you knowhow it is when people there and
they want you to do this andthis and this look, if it's me,
I don't want nobody around, so Imean, I'm just trying to dig
you out of hell.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Everybody knows how I , how I am.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
I ain't in no hole.
Yeah, you ain't got to dig meout, they know.
Yeah, so it was quiet Until thelast day.
And then everybody.
Then people come in when youwork half a day, and then they
all come in at one time wantingstuff.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Just a reminder.
You work at our church in theoffice for people that don't
know, so it can be busy at times.
It can, it can be crazy, youhave people come in that we
don't know asking for stuff,needing stuff, questions, all
kinds of stuff.
Need to help church members andyou're the go-to person because
(06:02):
you know it all.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, why, why, why?
I don't know what made mechoose this.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
It's very strange, though.
You know, we built a newsanctuary and y'all are at the
furthest point from the newsanctuary.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
So if y'all have to go, over there.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
It takes about five minutes to walk through all the
hallways down steps.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
We get our steps in.
Sometimes we'll get up and justsay, hey, let's go walk.
We just get up and go.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
when you've been sitting at the computer all day,
you know that'd be in theevening time, not right now,
especially even August with theheat, but that's a perfect place
to walk.
Just walk around, take youforever to walk around.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
You just make a loop, yeah, around the campus From
one end to the other.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Yeah, but there's several members of the church
that do that in the evening time.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Or do it early in the morning.
That's what you ought to do.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I think we got a couple that do it early in the
morning.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Do Mm-hmm, would you ever do that?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Would I do it.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
All right, let me go back.
I would I have done it.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Let me go back In our gym.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Say, a month ago you had some kind of thing that you
did to where you were getting upat 5 o'clock.
You just did it for a week.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Like a challenge, mm-hmm, did you make it the full
week?
No, we're saying a week.
Are you talking about sevendays or five days?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Well, they just done it five days, she just yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
So it was it five days Well it was Sunday.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
No, no, no, no, no, it wasn't.
It was Monday through Friday.
Monday through Friday, yeah, soI made it.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
How'd it go?
Struggle Struggle bus.
Yeah, so was it easier towardsthe end, or was it the same, or
was it harder?
Speaker 1 (07:41):
It was easier, but, needless to say, I didn't keep
doing it.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Did you ask yourself why am I doing this?
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, it was nice because I got up and read some
on the Bible app, I actually hadcoffee, I actually went outside
and looked at the sunrise.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What I know First.
I've heard of this Yep, that'snice, the sunrises are nice.
Nice, are they not?
Yeah, I'm sure they look nice.
I'm sure they weren't cloudy ornothing those days that you did
it.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
It rained a couple of days.
That's what I'm saying.
That's the thing about my job.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I see the sunrise every day for the most part.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
And some.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Some of them are pretty doggone.
Awesome Yep.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
They are pretty, sunrises are pretty.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
So you got up early for this challenge, but did you
find too much time on your hands?
You're like you know, I've lost.
I could have been.
What time do you normally getup?
Well, you get up what at six.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
I still get up at six , six, ten, depending.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Well, that's not.
I'm thinking you had like anhour and a half.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
No, I didn't have but an hour.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I know several retired guys from the church
that they get up early.
I actually know one of thedeacons that he might wake up at
one o'clock in the morning andthat's the time that he goes in
there and reads his bible andstudies.
He feels like that's the timegod allotted for him to yeah you
(09:15):
know to take that's good yeah,because he can't sleep or
whatever.
So I thought.
You know that's a pretty goodway of of uh looking.
Yeah, Because you know, reallylike, especially with our age,
it's really easy to say you getcaught up in daily tasks and all
that stuff and I ain't got time, I didn't have time to open my
Bible, I didn't have time toread those verses that I planned
(09:36):
on reading.
But we've all got time.
We just don't take the time.
That's the problem, Because youknow we've got time to watch
Netflix.
Right, we've got time to dothis Watch 20 minutes.
Yep, yep, so.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
That was the point of our challenge, and apparently,
I didn't learn.
What do you mean?
Because I didn't keep doing it.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Oh, is everybody else still doing it?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I think it depends on your job and your lifestyle and
all that too.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I would probably say something like instead of
setting 5 o'clock for everybody,I would say everybody needs to
challenge yourself and get up anhour earlier than they normally
do.
Yeah, because some people mightsleep later before they have to
go to work and some peoplemight have to get up earlier.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
So I think that would be a better challenge.
I wouldn't do the challenge,forget that get up early anyway.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
That's what I'm saying.
I can't even get you to stay inthe bed on saturdays.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Don't set your alarm on saturdays I wake up at my
normal time, like when I get upon Saturdays.
That's fine, but I'm justsaying I don't get up.
But I set my alarm, so after Ifall back asleep I will get up.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
I hate that alarm.
I hate it.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I'm going to miss something.
I'm going to miss somethinggoing on in the day.
I've got to get up and check itout.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You're not, I promise .
Speaker 2 (11:06):
I promise you're not.
You're not, I don't know.
The last time I would say thelatest I sleep is six.
That's like on Sunday mornings.
I get up at 5.50.
I set my alarm for 5.50.
I know, and you would think I'dbe able to sleep late.
But I just got things to do.
I got a lot of people dependingon me, a lot of critters
depending on me.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Well, you got that right.
Them critters about to gobye-bye.
Yeah, come get them.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
But back to that.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Who needs a free kitten?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah, oh, for real, I wish this was like a local.
I wish this was a local radiostation that we were doing right
now and that way we knew localpeople were listening.
Free kittens we got freekittens Any size, shape, color,
age.
We got them.
We got four that just startedwalking.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Oh my gosh, I need them gone.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
We got four that's probably 10 weeks old, and then
we got three adult female cats.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
They got to be gone, y'all.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I don't know what to do.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
They got to be gone.
That's what we do.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
This is going to be a cat farm before we do it and I
can't take it anymore.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
They're about to go see how they swim.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
They're using the gravel driveway.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
I can't stand it.
It smells yeah as their.
Litter box.
Yeah, I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
I can finish your sentence.
I was going to say their crapstation.
Every time I walk out we got somany cats.
Every time one of them's hikedup there letting it rip and he
just keeps feeding them.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
I'm like stop feeding them, they will go away.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
I don't think they will.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
I think they will.
Let's try it.
Stop feeding them, okay,speaking of feeding.
Speaking of feeding, I haven'tbeen fed so far tonight.
I gotta go, well, get fed.
So y'all know how he harped onme about the groceries last week
did I you want to talk aboutgroceries this week?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
tell us the story.
Two trip, tell the wholeeverything you know.
Two trips, all that stuff, whatyou did, how much.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Well, I had to make two trips because you can't buy
frozen items on grocery pickup.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
You still can't do that.
You can't do that at Walmartstill no, and I'm mad.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
What is the deal?
I don't know.
I asked the lady that'schecking me out.
She didn't have no clue what Iwas talking about Bologna.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
They've got to know.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I don't know, she probably didn't.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Was she new?
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah, I'm sure, anyway.
So Thursday I get groceries$200 and Whoa $239.
$239.
Now I like to keep my grocerybill under $150.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
It seemed like a lot.
I made a lot of trips to thecar.
It seemed like.
But I want you to finish yourstory and then I've got
something to say about these.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Yeah, we'll talk about that.
Yeah, all right, so we got itall out.
So I usually get all thegroceries out of the bag and put
them on the bags and put themon the bar.
And Jody puts up the cannedstuff, because he's OCD and he
like puts everything togetherand he rotates them out.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
That's just the grocery.
You know like canned stuffreally needs to be rotated
because it's got like a two-yearshelf life but you better watch
it.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
But we've had some in there for 10 years, you won't
think about it.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Next thing you know, two years has gone by and
there's a can of raviolis from2019 got pushed back in there.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
So, anyway, oh, 239 hurt my heart and then he's like
good, we need to keep doingthat.
So I'm like okay.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
So did I inspire you by saying that, or did you
already have plans?
No, I already had plans, butwhy didn't you do it all at one
time?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Well, I can't do it at one time, because the next
trip I made was nothing butfrozen food.
When I went on Saturday, wasnothing but frozen food.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Hold on, I thought you couldn't get frozen stuff.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
I went in Walmart and bought frozen food.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Oh, I did not know that, yes, what happened?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
So I had to go in Walmart, so I had to walk by the
clothes and a darn t-shirtjumped in the cart and I had to
buy a t-shirt.
So see, that's why I don't goin Walmart.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
First I heard of this .
I guess that's another reasonwhy he said I don't need help
unloading the groceries.
Is that why?
Speaker 1 (15:40):
I did not say that I wasn't even here.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I was cutting grass in the rain, remember.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
That's right.
Nicholas unloaded groceries.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah, he did.
I got back before.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Well, me and him was together at that time when I was
talking.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
You were talking about when I was going to your
mom's when you was at your mom's.
Yeah, okay, okay, that's when Igot back.
So I go get my oil changed atSpeedy Oil.
I don't even know if I wasthere five minutes.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Is that the name of it?
No, I just named it.
I just named it because I'mlike wow, I would not go to an
old changing place if it wascalled Speedy Oil.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Why not it just?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
sounds a little shady , nah.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Well, they done better than your, carl Cannon.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Oh, I used them for the first time.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I didn't mean to name drop that, but oh, anyway, yeah
, so, oops, it did not.
Ten minutes I was in and out ofthere, then I had to go to
Walmart.
Oh, then I spent anotherhundred and thirty something
(16:47):
dollars, so I spent four hundreddollars on groceries, minus the
T-shirt.
Ten dollars.
Ok, take a $10 off, Give me the$10.
So $120.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Okay, and what was your other one the day before?
Speaker 1 (17:04):
$239.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
So $340.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Round it up.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That's a lot of round Round it up.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
That's a lot of taxes .
Speaker 2 (17:11):
If we paid that much.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
I was throwing the oil in there.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Okay.
Well then, yeah, there's 400.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
So yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
I still don't feel like it's full.
You didn't look in the freezer.
I never look in the freezer.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Yeah, you never look in the pantry.
I know I buy you junk andsnacks and you'll be like I wish
I had some snack.
Well, if you'd look in thepantry, it's been in there for
two weeks.
That's why I quit buying stuff,because y'all don't eat it.
It just sits in there.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Well, I don't snack like I used to.
I used to snack like crazySnack before supper.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
You did.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Snack after supper Bowl of cereal.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
You used to eat a bowl of cereal.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
After supper how crazy is that, and I wouldn't
even think Sniff on in there.
I wouldn't Stop it.
Please, no, back to the order.
I have a question for all thelisteners out there.
Surely, how many people do youthink does the online ordering
(18:13):
at Walmart?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I feel like it's a bunch, but you know, every time
I get there there's at leastfour cars parked in those spots
with nobody in them.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Yeah, but I'm just thinking I wonder how many
people actually use the onlineordering.
What percent?
I mean?
It seemed like it'd be a lot,but it's really going to be a
small number.
Anyway, yeah, I don't think it'sprobably as much as we think it
is, so for the listeners outthere that are hearing us right
now that do the online ordering.
(18:50):
Online ordering when you getyour walmart pickup, do you get
groceries with one item in everysingle bag?
We will have 35 bags with 35items and they'll put them in
the back of your car that'sridiculous.
Yeah, we've got so many talkabout waste yeah, I was thinking
(19:13):
I thought we're you know,everybody's supposed to go green
and try and do better on allthis stuff.
I mean I've got a can of greenbeans in one bag and that's it.
Then I got a can of vegetablesoup in another bag and then I
got a pack of cheese in anotherbag.
So I mean I've got three items.
I got three separate bags, butthe whole thing.
There was not one single, therewas not two items.
(19:36):
I'll take that back.
There was one that yourcleaning detergent stuff.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Oh, and the paper plates and the paper plates.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Well, thank you for putting those together, I mean.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yeah, but that was Now.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
my paper plates smell like laundry soap, so that was
the only bag that had two items.
Everything else just had oneitem in it it was crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
It was crazy, absolutely ridiculous, but it's
every time it wasn't as bad.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Yeah, it's, I mean every time, I don't think I've
ever seen it this bad because Idon't buy that much well, I'm
just saying but my goodness, Imean walmart's losing money if
they're doing this.
I guess it's the way that theydo their pickup order when
they're going through.
I'm there when they're pickingthe orders from the shelves and
(20:22):
stuff.
Yeah, so if you've got like oneitem, but if you only can, Al.
But if you've only got like oneor two items or maybe one, I
think they're going ahead andbagging it and putting it in
their little cart thing, andwhen they're going to the next
aisle to get the snacks, theyhaven't kept that bag out to put
some snacks in it too.
So I think that's how that'shappening.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Well, they've got to be losing money, though, with
bags, but those pickers orwhatever they're called Pickers,
yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I mean, they're rushing around too, so they're
just doing whatever.
You know, they're just tryingto get the order picked and all
that.
So it's no fault of them, but Idon't know if they're being
trained that way or they're alljust doing it.
I'm just tired of these bags.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
It's crazy it is, but it's good for our food bank
because they need bags.
So that's where they went.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
That's where.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
I took them.
I went in there.
When I took the bags in therethe other day, they had like a
whole pallet of chicken and abiscuit and all the nabisco
stuff right there.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
If you go, look in your pantry is there some?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
you might have got some chicken.
Anyway, what I was gonna say, Ihad a thought.
I had an evil thought in myhead.
I thought about grabbing a boxof chicken and a biscuit and
walking out.
But I knew it wasn't the rightthing to do.
So I didn't Because I wasthinking they won't miss it.
Look at how many they got.
But you can't think like thatright.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Nope.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
I wish I had chicken and a biscuit right now.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Well, you got some in there.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
I wish you'd go get it for me.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Well, I can't get it.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Pause this thing for a minute.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Pause yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
I've got two raspberry filled donuts in there
that I think I'm going to eat.
You know, it's like 830 atnight, Sunday night, and I'm
thinking about eating tworaspberry donuts.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
You better eat better food than that.
I know We'll find you somethingto eat.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
We got chicken.
Oh yeah, B yeah boughtrotisserie and then bought a
piece chicken box.

And dixie which I didn't havehigh hopes that's not really
what I wanted.
Speaker 1 (22:25):

think about the sides, I did noteven I know only thing that you

And then he calls and says Igot rotisserie and an
eight-count chicken piece.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Never crossed my mind of the sides.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I said okay the side.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Okay, until you just now mentioned it.
I mean, that was lunchtimetoday, I know that's what I
wanted I would have got us some,uh, macaroni and cheese and
mashed potatoes I wanted themashed potatoes, my bad, so you
can't depend on me I justthought that's what you wanted,

Why do you just keep thinkingthat I had a thing for this week
?
I'm stuck on this Roadsideoddities.
I don't know why I like lookingat all this stuff.
I'd like to go see some of it.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Before you get on to that, can we talk about one
place in Alabama we need to goto?
Yeah, it's in ScottsboroAlabama.
It's called Untsboro Alabama.
It's called Unclaimed Baggage.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I guess I'm going to choke on my own spit there.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
She got all choked up over it.
What in the world.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
We've been there.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I know I'm telling everybody.
I'm sure a lot of people knowabout it, but they've never been
the first time we went.
Do you want to tell the storyor do you want me to tell the
story?
Speaker 1 (24:16):
You tell it All right .
Speaker 2 (24:18):
You don't remember, oh well.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Oh, yeah, yeah yeah.
That's the first time we went.
First time we went.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
Okay, all right.
So we've always heard aboutunclaimed baggage, never really
knew what it looked like, how itwas set up, anything like that.
But basically, uh, I think 1970is when this thing started.
I think they've got two sites,yeah, but they get.
Uh, there's a certain timeperiod that the airlines, they
(24:47):
keep people's lost luggage, youknow, for a certain amount of
time until they're just neverclaimed, and then they sell that
those items and apparently,this, this place.
I don't know if they're themain people that get it or
started or whatever, but anyway.
So we heard about this place inscottsboro.
We'd always talked about it.
We thought, well, let's go upthere one day.
(25:10):
So we did so, we, we got thereand when we got there there was
food trucks in the parking lot.
Joker was packed out.
I was like this is the way itis, it's a saturday man.
So we we, you know pulled inthe parking lot.
We're just in line extraparking lot.
(25:30):
Yeah, we weren't in the parkinglot, we were like the over there
on the side street parking lot,so much parking that they
actually they had golf carts ohyeah they came and peeked you up
and took you to the, to thebuilding, and this was amazing.
I was like this is unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I can't believe it's like this we didn't know what
was about, didn't?
Speaker 2 (25:50):
know what was about to walk into.
So we're getting the golf cartand riding and the guy that was
driving said so you're here forthe ski sale.
And I was like, excuse me, Idon't know.

Ski sale, what is he saying?
What does that mean?
Ski sale?
It's their winter time.
(26:11):
They have a sale on their ski.
He said it's the biggest day ofthe year for them and that's
the day that we went to claimbaggage.
We're like how stupid is this,how crazy is.
But I don't know, all theirwinter like apparel and skis and
gloves and all this stuff butwe didn't buy skis, did we?
(26:31):
no, I'm gonna do anything.
You didn't even get a chance toreally look.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Oh, I couldn't yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
We stayed like two hours in the men's section.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
And then you go to the women's and there, yeah, no,
you don't have any room.
Yeah, I was done.
I mean yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
So it's like a big, almost like a department store.
I guess you'd say.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Yeah, it's set up kind of like that.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
And then you've got on one end of the building.
It's kind of like anelectronics type thing and all
that.
So you've got, you know,expensive sunglasses.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah, they got sunglasses and books and jewelry
.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Laptops yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Gaming systems, purses Sheets.
You know they had watches, youknow, yeah, and this stuff, a
lot of some.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Some of the stuff, like they had a watch that was
over two thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Oh, they had a lot of expensive stuff, a lot of
expensive.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
But you also find expensive stuff really cheap, so
you just have to look.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Yeah, you have to be willing to stay and look and
look.
And some of the stuff you gotto know what you're looking for.
And some of the stuff you gotto know what you're looking for,
like you got to know if you'relooking for something expensive.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
You could very easily overlook something that's
expensive that you didn't know.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, because it's been crowded every time we've
went.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
It has, but it wasn't nothing like that.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Yeah, but nothing like that.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Yeah, but I loaded up on shirts, you sure did Sports
jacket.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
That yeah, but I loaded up on shirts.
You sure did Sports jacket.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
If we get a suit, we go there.
We don't go to men's warehouse.
No no no, we go to baggageclaim.
What's it called?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Baggage claim.
I can't think of what it'scalled.
We're not at the airport.
Where's your baggage claim area?
What's it called?
Speaker 1 (28:11):
unclaimed baggage.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
My goodness Long day huh.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Yeah, I'm done.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
It's fun.
So if you've never been there,I don't know, maybe you live
close.
Well now, they have.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Since we've been, they've done a little museum
thing, and that's been justwithin the last couple of years,
because that hadn't always beenthere.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Yeah, I think that last year when that Because that
was actually it was on the newsLike Fox, maybe I remember
seeing that.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Yeah, I remember Something, but I remember One of
them.
I do remember seeing it.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
But it's it's stuff.
It's that's you know, some oldstuff or whatever that they've
you know, gotten or have foundor was sent to them.
Whatever is unclaimed baggageand it's they're not selling it
there.
It's like worthy for a museumtype stuff.
So that's pretty neat.
But I mean the museum it'snothing huge.
(29:09):
Don't make a trip up there justto go to the museum.
I mean it's nothing like that.
It's just a few things that areinteresting to look at.
But yeah, if you just want tocheck it out and try and find
some deals, you'll definitelyfind them.
If you just want to fightthrough the people, yeah.
And I bet they have too, likecertain times of the year they
have clearance, you know, likeon summer apparel.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
I think they do, because I think we went one time
when they had some stuff, yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
So I don't know how you would hit it.
Just right to know.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I mean it's how far is it from us?
Is it two hours, Two and a halfhours?
I?
Speaker 2 (29:43):
don't think it's quite that far.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Is it not?
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I think two hours, I don't know it's an easy trip for
us on a Saturday.
If that's something you want todo, do that.
Spend a few hours, just workyour way back.
Yeah, mentone's just a littlebit further.
We did that.
One time there was anotherpallet place when we were into
looking for you know palletstuff, quantities.
(30:12):
What was the?
You know what I'm talking about.
It was a big warehouse thingbut they had stuff outside.
It was stuff that.
Oh, sister, sister, sister Idon't know, it was stuff you got
mad because they got on to usfor going inside.
Yeah, I did not know.
They've got a huge warehousefull of stuff and I walk inside
and they're like whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa.
(30:32):
What inside?
And they're like whoa, whoa,whoa, whoa, what I said, just
outside, just the stuff that'soutside.
They had pallets of stuffeverywhere but we didn't know,
yeah.
So I was like, forget this, Ididn't like their attitude, so
they didn't get my business, butthey just had.
You know, it might be likedewalt toolboxes that are boxed
up.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
You don't know if they're damaged or anything like
that, but they weren't cheaper,though were they?
Speaker 2 (30:55):
this one was not that that great a deal, so, but that
was just something that wefound along the way too, but
they were busy oh yeah, I mean,I think they're actually, I
think I think seen a thingthey're going out of business
really yeah well, they shouldlet more people inside the shop
instead of staying outside likethat guess, so Right there.
Yeah, change your attitude.
You might stay open a littlebit longer Speaking of that.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
today I watched on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
You watched YouTube.
I did watch YouTube.
You don't normally watchYouTube, do you?
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Well, I had to go to work for just a little bit, so I
can't sit in there quiet.
So I just pulled up YouTube andI watched this couple that I'm
not really watching it.
I'm listening to it because I'mworking, but they, um, they buy
mail that has been lost orwhatever.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
And um, I really want to do that.
I really think I want to dothat.
Yeah, you can buy like $200worth of they tell you how much
you get right, Of course youdon't know what you're getting.
You just the quantity.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Right.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
So many boxes or so much weight that you're getting.
Is it the same one that I'vewatched?
We've watched before.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
A husband and a wife.
Yeah, I don't think you likethem.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yeah, I mean, he does toys too, right I?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
think so he does something else, yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
They're really slow in opening packages and stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Well, they like to talk and they just.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
I don't know.
I'm like get to it, show uswhat you got and go on.
But my thing is is a lot of thestuff they open is like
clothing from Timu and stufflike that.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
It is.
I'm like I don't want thatstuff.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Yeah, you know I'm to get it and you don't know what
it is, and as long as you're notputting too much money into it,
you know I would rather do likethe youtube channel we watch
jamie and sarah that buys thepalette of merchandise for like
five or six hundred dollars butthey don't do that anymore yeah,
they're doing like uh,renovating houses and stuff like
(32:49):
that.
They made big time.
Yep, I don't know they they didone another day did they not
too long ago.
Yeah, they do it every once in awhile.
It ain't like you know, theywere doing it constant, right,
but I think they were makinggood money off of all that to
where they've kind of venturedoff into buying property and
stuff.
But yeah, shout out.
Places were closer shout out tojamie and sarah.
(33:09):
Even though they're in michigan, we like watching them.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Yeah, we should make a trip to Michigan and buy some
power.
No, thank you, I'm not going toMichigan.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Why.
I just don't have any need togo to Michigan, fine.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
So that's what we've done this week yeah, nothing.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
Nothing.
You make it sound like nothing.
I feel like I've worked my buttoff all week.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
You have, yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Oh my goodness, is it the middle?
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Yeah, peacock, don't let me mess you up.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Go ahead, I don't know, I just know it's always on
when I walk through.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
When I get on a series, it's like I want to
watch it.
That's all I want to do.
I want to sit there and I wantto watch it and finish it.
So that's what I've been doingso.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
I don't understand, did you say, wasn't it?
I thought it was Malcolm in theMiddle the whole time that you
were watching it.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
But then I find out it's just the middle so Malcolm
in the Middle was first.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
I don't know and then this is a spin off from that
maybe I'm not positive on that.
So seems like a little neatshow, but I like it.
I would have to watch it fromthe beginning.
I don't want to just start inthe middle.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Well, in the middle.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Yeah Well, I wasn't trying to be funny but I guess I
was I guess you was.
We also watched on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Dirty Pop.
Yeah, you better explain thatone.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Dirty Pop.
It's the guy that formed orfound NSYNC and Backstreet Boys.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
And then some other boy bands a little bit further
down that wasn't as popular.
You might have heard of them,but they didn't really hit it
big or anything.
And spoiler alert if you'regoing to watch it and you don't
know what, and you don't want toknow what happens or whatever,
then turn this off right now,because I'm going to tell you.
(35:10):
But anyway, the guy was he.
Just he lied about everything,right.
He stole people's money.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Well, he was first into the airplane thing, right,
and that's how he kind of gothis money he, he, he, he bought
airplanes yeah and he basicallyleased them out to companies and
to rock bands and all thisstuff.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
And that's how he made his money, uh, to finance
these boy bands.
And then he, he just hadconnections everywhere and like
in saint we're not in saint uh,backstreet boys, they started in
germany, I didn't know this.
They made it big in germanybefore they ever made it big
here.
They said they would come backhere.
(35:53):
Nobody knew who they were.
But in germany he said it waslike the beatles, you know,
everybody knew him and was goingcrazy over him.
But anyway, long story short,uh, I think all these bands sued
this guy because he wasstealing their money and all
this stuff, and then come tofind out everything he was a
fraud, the whole thing, thewhole thing.
(36:13):
He never had airplanes, he neverleased them out to people, but
what he did was just paperworkand stuff.
He forged stuff and bankrecords and all this and had
people just giving him hundredsof thousands of dollars.
It was a Ponzi scheme, is whatit was.
So he was getting all thismoney and then finally got to a
point where he couldn't he thatrevolving cash flow he had that
(36:37):
he could keep people off hisback.
Well, he just got so, so muchthat he took from people.
They said that it might be asmuch as $500 million that he
took Wow, but he was living itup the house he showed and all
that.
But he went to jail, died injail all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
I think I fell asleep at the end of it.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Need to go watch it again.
Sorry, I just spoiled it foryou.
He died in jail.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Thanks, I think I'm good.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
But it was pretty interesting.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
It was like four parts.
It was a Sunday and it'sraining.
What else do you do when it's arainy Sunday?
You take a nap.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Is that what you do?
Speaker 1 (37:18):
Yeah, I tried.

That's like if you were outsidedoing something and you're
trying to wait on a phone callthat you knew you.

around and wait.
