Severe weather creates unexpected moments to pause and reflect on life's peculiarities while we navigate storms, strange hotel policies, and rediscover simple pleasures like card games. We share our weekend experience dealing with Alabama's tornado warnings and waiting out the storms with our emergency helmets ready.
• James Spann, Alabama's beloved meteorologist, and his catchphrase "respect the polygon"
• Local hotels allegedly refusing to rent rooms to residents who live nearby
• Airbnb safety concerns versus traditional hotels
• The horrifying story of a 32-year-old man held captive by his stepmother for decades
• Nostalgia for card games like rummy and dominoes during power outages
• Weather preparation including helmets, crank radios, and backup power banks
• The challenge of knowing when to cancel events due to weather threats
• Whether schools should send students home during severe weather warnings

Speaker 2 (00:22):
And we made it.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
We made it.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Barely Last night.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
We did.
I thought you were talkingabout, like the critical point
of when this has to be editedand released.
No, down to the wire again,sunday after church when we're
recording this.
We had bad storms Saturdayevening.
We had a weekend full of events, or mainly one event at church.
(00:47):
Right, that we were involvedwith, and then we had to kind of
I'm the gopher.
Had to rearrange everything forthe storms to come in Saturday
evening Right.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
And it didn't hit us, it hit all around, kind of.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
That was weird.
It did hit all around, seemedlike.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I think Friday night was worse to me because all the
lightning and thunder and we hadsome hail.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
That was Saturday morning at 4 o'clock in the
morning.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
That's true.
That's true, that was notFriday 4 am 4 am.
So if it was 1 o'clock in themorning, do you say Friday night
?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
No Friday night at 1 o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Saturday you say Saturday.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Saturday, that's Saturday, but that was rough,
rougher to me.
Yeah, but it wasn't nothing.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, we didn't have to deal with the tornadoes or
anything like that, which wasfine by me, but it's one of
those four to five hour ordealswhere you're just sitting there
watching the weather.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Because they just keep popping up.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Watching James Spann.
Yeah, because.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
If you don't know, we live in Alabama.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Right, and James Spann, if you've never heard of
him, he's the main weather guy,for it's a region I wouldn't
just say Alabama, would youSurely he's known a little bit
creeping into Tennessee, georgia, mississippi, that type of
thing, I don't know it's got tohave a following right.
It's only one I watch Respectthe polygon.
(02:09):
That's what he says.
Respect the polygon.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
But I heard 32 people died from the tornadoes.
I never heard a number.
I didn't know.
I was going to look that uptoday.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
That's what they said on the news this morning.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I never heard a number.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And I can't remember how many tourneys they said, but
it's a lot.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
It seemed like a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
So hopefully it'll be a while One's too many yeah.
So, Alright, but other thanthat, what's going on?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
I'm tired.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
We were going to talk about a hotel situation and you
said you were going to talkabout a hotel situation.
And you said you were going totry and look some information up
on it, but it never happened.
I was just kidding.
We got our regular Winston hereagain In the chair, by the way,
our regular guest.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Those dogs get treated better than I do.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Our regular guest.
She wants to be petted anyway,back to the whole hotel he's
looking at me through your legsyeah.
So what was the deal that youwas telling me about the hotel?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
it said, if you were local you could not rent a hotel
room.
They would not rent to a localperson.
It was just on Facebook, so youtake that with whatever you
want to take it with, but thatwas the discussion people were
having on Facebook was in ourlocal town.
(03:35):
It was all town people, so butit's a chain hotel.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It's not like a.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Well, they said none of the hotels would let you, so
they're saying all of them.
And then some of them would say, yes, they will, so you're
saying like a Comfort Inn, aHoliday Inn?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
you're talking about all of those.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I don't even know what we got.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I don't either, several.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
The ones out what we call industrial, the ones out
there.
They said they wouldn't let youand and what's the reasoning?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
I don't know, I don't have a reason, but I told you,
though, if I call, if I knowthere's people that just get in
whatever city it is even a bigcity they get a hotel room, even
though they might live in thecity, but they're getting a
hotel for whatever reason.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Why does it matter?
Just sell me a flipping room,that's what I'm saying A rent me
room.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
So if I call and say, hey, have y'all got plenty of
rooms available for tonight, youknow, if I come over there and
rent a you know a single bed,whatever, and they, yeah, yeah,
we're good.
I mean, we got plenty ofvacancies, all this kind of
stuff, All right.
So then when I get there andthen I give them my license,
they oh, I, I see that you livewithin 10 miles of the hotel.
(04:43):
I'm sorry we can't reach you.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
That's what people were saying.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
That doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
That cannot be true.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
I don't know they want your money.
Right, right, so they're goingto turn money away.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
So they're trying to say it's because of a kind of
like tourist type thing Ifyou're from out of town, town
you're coming off the interstatebam.
These hotels are for thosepeople, not for locals.
No, they're saying somethingabout drugs, was it not?
Speaker 2 (05:13):
or yeah, or not being able to kick out that people
come in and stay and stay andstay.
Well, how can they if theydon't pay, if you if you get, if
they pay, who cares?
Speaker 1 (05:20):
yeah, if they don't pay, kick them out.
If they pay for three nightsand on that fourth night they're
not leaving, what do you do?
You call the law, get them out.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
You get them out.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
They don't have the right to stay there, right?
Isn't the law going to knock onthat door and say, hey, y'all
got to get out?
I don't know, unless you'regoing to pay.
I don't know, unless they canclaim it for it's theirs.
I don't know, I don't know howall that works.
I would not be a tenant,because you hear people all
these when you rent to someoneand then you can't get them out
of that, out of your house andthey have legal right because
(05:54):
they've been there for howeverlong yeah, but it should be if I
gave you every state'sdifferent.
You're giving them a notice,right?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
You know hey you got 60 days.
It's the act of Congress tokick somebody out when they're
written.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
So squatters, Is that what it's called?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
That's what it's called a squatter.
But there's also people that'sgot a house that's vacant.
Say, you've got a grandparentthat passed away.
All right, nobody lives intheir house now, but you take
care of it.
You have to go over there andyou know, cut the grass, just
clean up every once in a whileall that stuff.
Next thing you know somebody'smoved into it and you're like go
(06:34):
over there.
Hey, hey, hey, this is my house.
You cannot get it, I'm sorry.
No, we're here.
You can't kick them out, youcan't get rid of them.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
It's not that easy.
That is amazing yeah, that'stheft.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Theft of property, that's what I call it.
So if you wire the laws likethey are and they can do it I
know, if you get in my truck andthen you won't let me get in my
truck, yeah, or you lock thedoor and you crack the window so
no, you're not getting one.
So the cops will be like I'msorry, there's nothing we can do
maybe they wouldn.
No, I mean, it's not that wayfor vehicles, that's what I'm
(07:07):
saying.
Why is it that way for houses?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
We don't know about all this stuff.
We're just speaking the way wefeel right.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
It's the truth.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
It's on the old face bag I don't know about that If
it's on this that and the other.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
That's what James Bond calls it.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
If it's on this, that and the other, it's true.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Even though it's our opinion, it's true.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Take that with a grain of salt.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
What do you think about Airbnbs?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I don't know, I'd like to stay in one.
Since we're talking abouthotels and that kind of thing,
how about I stay in?
Speaker 1 (07:40):
My thing is how do you trust he just shot that down
?
We're talking about Airbnbs.
We're not talking about wherewe're going or doing anything,
so what I'm asking do you feelsafe?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
It's a little weird to me.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I'm going to Chattanooga.
Let's look up Airbnbs and let'sfind the cheapest one.
There's one, $70 a night.
We're going to stay two nights.
It's actually a small littlehouse behind these people's
house.
It's a one bedroom, one bath ina kitchenette.
Say, hey, we'll do that.
(08:16):
There's pictures, looks new,it's fine.
Bam, we're there.
Well, all these goofballsnowadays that have hidden
cameras and stuff like that.
The camera thing is where, Ithink Are you really going to
trust going to some stranger'shouse and pay them money to stay
?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
It happens, especially if you're staying in
their house.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
If it's a house house and they've just got like an
upstairs that's vacant and theyrent out, no, I ain't staying in
there you can they rent out.
No, I ain't staying in I'm notstaying that ain't how that
works what's a bread and bread,bread and a bed and breakfast?
Isn't that the same thing?
The people live at the house,mainly, and but you're staying
there also, and that would havewell, they have their own little
room but not like who thepeople that like that own it
(09:02):
right.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
So that's okay, yeah, okay.
Well, it's the same as a hotel,it's not that much different.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
It's a lot different.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
You don't know I'm not in a house.
You don't know that somebody.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
I'm not locked in a house with strangers that I'm
renting from for a day or twothat we don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
At Airbnb?
They're not.
You're talking about justrenters.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
No, I'm just talking about.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
An Airbnb, the people that own it are not there.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
You need to get on that phone right there and look
that up and see if they are notthere.
Can you not rent out an extrabedroom in your home?
Speaker 2 (09:44):
That's for people that need it for a month or
something.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
No, no, this is like I know of, like, that's not an.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Airbnb.
An Airbnb is when you just gorent a house.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Call it what you want to Take the Airbnb out, all
right, and so I watched this ongame day one time where they
were talking about around someof these big coliseums.
On game day or two days leadingup to it, some of these houses
that people own around it theyare renting out now I can't
(10:16):
remember if it's the whole houseor partially, you know a couple
of bedrooms or whatever it isfor these people that's coming
into these games from out oftown people are drunk.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
They don't know I'm just saying so it's a thing
that's not like an airbnb.
An airbnb, the people are notstaying there.
It's a house or a little condothing that they're renting out.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I don't know if you know that for a fact.
That's my question.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I do know that for a fact.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
You're just saying that.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I know that for a fact.
Some of our girls rent Airbnbsand the people are not there
with them.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'm not saying all of them, I'm just saying You're
talking about something totallydifferent than an airbnb.
I'm just saying if I wanted torent out, not written out your
upstairs?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
that's not an airbnb.
I think it is part of theairbnb.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
I think you can get on there and you can look for
the whole apartment slash housethat you want, or if it's like
just a room.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
I don't think so I think it is so.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
are you saying you would stay or would not stay?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I would stay at an Airbnb, but I have thought about
the camera thing makes me alittle iffy, but I guess you
just got to get over that.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I don't know, I don't think I'm doing it.
I just feel like I've listenedand watched enough of these
dates.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
That's your problem.
You've got to quit.
Enough of these date lines.
You've got to quit that.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
To where they've got their kid locked up down in the
basement tied up, and then nowI'm going to rent part of their
house from them and think I'msafe.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You're not renting a part of the house for an Airbnb.
You get the whole dang houseAll right on their property.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
They have that small little studio apartment, slash
whatever one room, a kitchenetteand a bathroom.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
And they just need a renter.
They need somebody.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
That's like a month renter or something.
I'm asleep in there and I wakeup and I creep my eyes open
barely and somebody's standingat the foot of the bed.
It's the owner of the housethat's in front of me.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
You're talking about like college, how they go to
these dorms and you're stayingwith somebody.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
You don't know when you get a roommate.
That's not what I'm talkingabout.
I'm talking about I just rentedan Airbnb.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
You're not renting an Airbnb.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
People have an Airbnb on their property.
It's like if you had a guesthouse.
This is the example I'm usingnow and I'm just saying as I
wake up, dude is standing at thefoot of my bed watching me
sleep Because, guess what, hehas keys to the place that I
rented from him and it's anAirbnb.
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Well, that could happen at a hotel Because crazy
people they have the keys.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
But I trust a hotel more than a All right, when
we're talking about hotels, theroom on the outside or the room
on the inside where the door isDoes it matter?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
It doesn't bother me.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
I'm not really afraid of people having access to my
hotel room from outside.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
No.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
That's not a worry.
But yeah, if you're going totalk about which is safer, of
course being inside of a hoteland you've got hallways to where
your room's at Agree ordisagree, of course you're going
to be safe, safer I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Somebody wants to get in.
They're going to get in.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Yeah, but why are they going to pick me?
Is it random when these peopledo this?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
is it just random?
Why is somebody going to rentan Airbnb and come be at the end
of your bed?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Because people are jacked up in the head.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Okay, same thing for a hotel.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
They could be hiding in there.
You know there was people thathad little corridors in between
the walls.
Okay, see that they could makelike a peahole.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
See, Make a pinhole in there and look at you.
So there you go.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
That brings me me the story I wish I'd have here we
go.
I told you about it.
I wish I'd like printed thisoff to talk about it, but it's,
I think it's new jersey, newyork.
Well, I use my phone to record,all right, so my phone's not
available, but I do have alaptop right here, but I don't
have time to like get on it nowand turn it on all that stuff,
(14:14):
so I'll just speak of what Iremember of it.
I don't even remember whereexactly it's at new york, new
jersey, somewhere like that.
A 32 year old guy was beinglocked in this house by his
stepmother for over two decadesand he weighed 68 pounds.
(14:36):
He's, I think they said, fivefoot nine.
Either way, it's either fivefoot seven and he couldn't take
her and get out of there 20years ago, how old would he have
been?
12 exactly.
So he's been locked in hishouse since then.
He was going to school and thenhe just stopped going to school
(14:59):
and I don't think nobody everreally checked up on him.
But she would give him How'sthat I don't know Well, how's
anything?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
If my kid didn't go to school.
You got a phone call.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
So he told them that he was hungry every day, all day
, for years, because he nevergot enough to eat and she would
only give him.
What I remember reading aboutit was two cups of water a day,
which was not enough, and heremembers drinking, sometimes
(15:31):
out of the toilet.
Getting water out of the toiletto drink.
You've got to think, 68 pounds,68 pounds.
Who knows what this guy lookedlike.
I haven't seen any pictures.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Is this recent?
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Yeah, it was like last week, last Monday, the
stepmom, I don't know Where'sthe dad, apparently they're
hitting, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
If she was a stepmom.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
He might be buried in the backyard If she's treating
this dude, this kid, like that Imean, if she was a stepmom he's
got to have.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Where's his mom, Where's his dad.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I don't think they dive that deep in.
It was just a headline becauseof this happening At that time.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I don't think nobody knew Well, now I need to know.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Well, I'm sure it.
Ask Nancy Grace.
She's the one that'll check inon this oh never mind.
Ain't she the one?
No, she does the people thatget murdered and killed right.
She doesn't deal with justregular crazy stuff, which I
don't care for her anyway.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
But what do you think about that?
How would you like to be?
Oh, and the way he got loosewas he caught the house on fire?
Speaker 2 (16:36):
He caught his room on fire.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Heck yeah, smart boy, he mixed some stuff up?
Not really, but and, I think,trying I don't know if he was
doing that to try and burn, likewhat he was tied up with, or if
he was actually just trying tostart a fire so that he could
get some emergency workers tothe house, somebody to the house
, to where maybe there's achance to find out he was on his
(16:58):
last leg.
You got to think, year afteryear after year, what if you're
in year three of this beinglocked at your house and you
don't know, you've got 17 plusmore years that you're going to
be locked in there.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
How do you lock somebody up for that long?
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You got to ask her I need Netflix.
Oh yeah, you're talking aboutsome stuff that'll come out.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
yeah, it'll be all over the place netflix, hulu,
paramount, wherever I sent you ashow last night that we needed
to watch on hulu you alreadyasleep.
I sent you.
I don't think I was asleep, butI did.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
I did get the text, but I didn't reply because I
thought it was gonna get toreply.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
No, I knew you wouldn't reply, but we do that
all the time.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
If because we know we can't remember yeah all right,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
We know we can't remember, so we text each other
shows all the time.
We'll just put the show andwhat it's on and we'll say
nothing else.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Why did you think it would be good?
Speaker 2 (17:58):
I can't remember you really.
Yeah, really.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Did we talk about the one we just finished on our
last episode?
Speaker 2 (18:07):

Speaker 1 (18:11):
Day Zero yeah, we did .
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Well then, I don't remember what happened.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Still can't think of the dude's name that's in it.
Why can I not think of his?
I never.
He was in the Godfather, theoriginal Godfather, Godfather 1.
You know, when they went backin time he was.
I can't even think of theGodfather's name.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
You know, I don't know names.
I almost said Cornholio,cornholio, cornholio, it's name.
You know, I don't know names.
I almost said.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Cornholio, cornholio, cornholio, it's nothing.

going to squeeze this in.
And then it didn't happenyesterday, which was Saturday,
and then.
So I told you earlier.
I said you realize, like rightafter church we've got to do
(19:23):
this.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
And then we get stuck at church because we have to
finish part of the event, and sowhen we got here you got here
before I did and I'm like comeon, or?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I'm done.
Yeah, you sent me like adeadline 15 minutes.
I'm in here.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I'm waiting.
Get your honey in here and getthis rolling.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
And then you didn't even give me 15.
The next thing I saw it saidfive minutes or I'm out, and I'm
like what's up with that?
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I said five-minute countdown, because I said 115,
we're recording.
Well, it was 110, so I wasgiving you a warning Five-minute
countdown and I'm out.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
So if we reversed that and I told you that, what
would you do?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I'd just say bye.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
You'd be like oh well .
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Bye, I'm out.
Why, I don't know, I don't know, I have to go back again
tonight at 4.30.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
So you just need a nap.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
I just want to close my eyes.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
You just need a nap to refresh, recharge your
batteries and you'll be fine.
You think that's what's gonnado it.
I didn't even do nothing, so Ididn't even do nothing and I'm
so flipping tired.
No, it's just like I can't holdmy eyes open.
You did, but it's a matter ofbeing there, because there's
only there's certain tasks thatwe have to do at certain times,
kind of you know basically justbehind the scenes yeah, and
(20:31):
basically feeding everybody atthis yeah so you've got a break
in, but it's not like a breakwhere you're going to leave and
go somewhere.
You can go home whatever.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Well, if it hadn't been the weather we could have
recorded yesterday during thatbreak.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Yeah, everything yesterday got pushed up.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, it all got shoved into, so instead of it
lasted all night long it gotpushed to where.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Hey, at 3 o'clock it's over.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Yeah, because we usually have a big break.
Yeah, and then yesterday wedidn't, so then we have people
canceling on us before it evenstarted.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah, you know that's a thing too, when you cancel an
event.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I know people are scared of weather, but I mean.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
But when do you decide to cancel?
Hey, schools are the world'sworst.
You get a little bit of.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
With weather.
I wish they would leave thekids in there, because to me
some kids are better off atschool.
Oh you're talking about like atornado, yeah, yeah, they don't
need to release it, they'rebetter off at school than they
are at home when Mom and Daddy'sat work, because they can't get
off work.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Do you think it's the school not wanting to have the
responsibility of having thosekids?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
there.
I don't.
You don't think that's it.
No, I think it's.
Yeah, I think it's becausethey've gotten, they've let them
out before in the middle or notin the middle, but like when
something was about to happenand then they get stuck and
they're like, oh, we shouldn'thave done that.
So now they're just like at thedrop of a hat.
(21:55):
We just ain't doing it.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
But that, that and then.
So now they're just like at thedrop of a hat we just ain't
doing it.
But that goes back to the wholething of being responsible.
So are they afraid if theyleave them at school?
Speaker 2 (22:05):
and if something that their responsibility falls on
them if something happens well,it does how many times some of
those kids are more safe atschool than they are at home
tornadoes hit anything rightcourt, but you hear about houses
.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
How many times did they hit schools?
I know they do yeah I get that,but I'm just saying I feel like
, hey, if it's anytime duringthe day, unless it's just
sitting in the hall with thebook on the head.
You know, but it's easy to saythis, though, but if I was, you
know, I might want to send themhome to him if I was in charge
of it, because yeah, I wouldn'twant that responsibility of
having them at school, no way.
(22:40):
But if you've got a, two-hourhead heads up and they know, hey
, it's gonna hit, it's gonna berough.
Then yeah, like send them out Istill feel like they're safer
at school than they are at home,some of them oh, there's no
doubt you're sending them homewhen you get, if you live in a
mobile home, a double-wide,anything like that great place
to live, but terrible for whenweather comes.
(23:02):
I mean you get high winds likethat, yeah, and we saw that in a
town just down the road fromyesterday.
Oh, I see.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
And that was— A bus had flipped up on a— yeah, like
on a roof type thing.
On a roof, yeah, a um, yeah,like on a roof.
Yeah, I was gonna go back tochurch so the picture yesterday
we're talking about that.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
You were saying that it was trees down across the
road and I said that looked likethe bottom part of a trailer
yeah, yeah, it was a trailer,was it?
Yeah, so it got flipped on theside and was scooted across the
road crazy.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It hit close to our youth minister, yeah, but he was
good, so that's good.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
But you've got people that are really afraid.
You say storm, and they're likelooking over their shoulder oh
yeah, what is that?
When is it supposed to be here?
And they get prepared.
And there's nothing wrong withthat, right.
There's nothing wrong withoverreacting about it, because,
(24:01):
hey, it's better to be safe,right.
But I'm just not that way.
I'm just like I don't want toget caught up in any kind of
major storm.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
But you may just get our helmets out yeah, I'll be
prepared.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
I got our, we got we do.
We've got three helmets and Igot a backpack, by the way.
Speaker 2 (24:18):

and with it getting summertimeor spring, you know it got a
little bit of pollen and allthis kind of stuff and your eyes
are just like, seem likethey're fogging.
I'm just ready to put myglasses on, but they're like
what if we need to leave and gosomewhere where it's safer and
all this stuff?
But go somewhere where it'ssafer and all that stuff?
But I was telling you it's like.
So I had everything set up,almost like a firefighter to
(24:58):
wear, like because we changedclothes too.
I was like, if we're gonnaleave, I got it set up to where
you know how the firefightersused to, would just like step
into their boots and they pulledup their you know their outfit

But we had the three littlehelmets.

helmet or something.
So yeah, we had backpacks fullof.
I had battery chargers.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
I had the computer.
I had phone chargers, which Iknew.
If the power went off wecouldn't use the phone chargers,
but I knew, if it was evengetting close, that I'd go ahead
and plug mine up.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
And then I had the computer because I knew that you
could run the computer from thehotspot on your phone if we
needed to watch weather you knowbigger, if there were several
people wanting to watch orwhatever.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
And I've got that little power bank.
Yeah, that you can charge threephones at a time off of it.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Yeah, so I knew, and then I've also got that.
Then I packed tennis shoes,because I wore sandals, but I
packed tennis shoes.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
I've got the crank weather radio.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Where was that?
Speaker 1 (26:28):
I had it in the backpack.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
In your backpack Better.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
I was ready to go.
Gonna test it out for the firsttime.
I don't know how much you haveto.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
Is it a weather radio ?
No, it's just a radio, right?
It's not a weather radio.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah, it's got a weather radio feature on it and
it's a regular radio.
Then it's got two LED, one'slike a spotlight and one's like
a regular light.
It's a little thing that youtwist out and it's just like a
reading light.
It's pretty neat for as cheapas it was, like 25 bucks or
something.
But hey, a little bit I fooledwith it.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
I'm gonna let you sit there and crank it, though.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Yeah, I don't know, I don't want to crank it can you
crank it for like 30 seconds andit'll last for 15 minutes, or
like every two or three minutesare you having to put a little?
Speaker 2 (27:10):
you should have started cranking it yesterday
morning probably.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I don't think you have to do all that I don't
think it's happening.
I don't think you can crank itfor an hour and it's gonna last
you for three days.
It's not like that well, that'swhat I want well, I'm sure I
want somebody to crank it for me, and so I don't want to be the
cranker naughty it no nose goeswhat does that mean?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
naughty it, nose goes .
That first one touches theirnose is naughty it.
No, I've neverose goes?
I've never heard that, oh mygosh, how old are you?
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Old enough?
I guess no, is that?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
a kid's game.
We do it all the time still.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
No For kids.
Speaker 2 (27:49):

In the office.
Is that an adult game?
Speaker 2 (27:52):
In the office Will do Nose goes.
You know what?
Speaker 1 (27:54):
I wish I'd have thought of that.
You're talking about adultgames, you better clarify that
one.
Well, I'm about to, if you'lllet me.
Well, so we're at Walmart.
Nicholas said you got to comeover here to the board game
section.
They got it on the aisle rightthere and you go over there and
I took a picture of every game.
(28:15):
They've got over there andthere's some questionable games
for adults at Walmart.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Maybe I'll read off next time we do this Maybe not.
Yeah, so I just wanted you tobe aware of that.
I know some card games they got.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Card games Mm-hmm yeah, but what's not bad.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Not nice.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Oh yeah, you talking about like Card games, mm-hmm,
yeah, but what's Not?
Speaker 2 (28:42):
bad, not nice.
Oh yeah, you talking about likequestion games?
I think so, some humanity,something.
I don't know, because we don't.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
I just didn't know they had these.
I mean, it's a big enoughsection.
I was shocked, but anyway.
Maybe that's a new thing but Isaid I don't ever even think
about cards anymore, like thatwould be a great thing if the
power's off.
You ain't got nothing to do.
Where's the deck of cards inthis house?
Speaker 2 (29:09):
but my friend told me yesterday.
She said that she was packingtheir bag and they had games and
I well, I'm not taking anygames.
She said y'all should takecards.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
I'm like oh, yeah, oh really yeah, Brandy Shout out.
Yeah, we ought to do that,because we used to play rummy.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
You won't do nothing now.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Me.
Yeah, busy, busy, yeah, that'swhat I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
If the power's out and we can play cards and
dominoes, because I love somedominoes and now you won't play
them anymore.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Hey, we got on a kicker with dominoes several
years ago.
We had some friends that westarted playing.
Matter of fact, it was aroundmy 40th birthday.
That was how long ago, yeah itwas actually nine years ago,
thank you.
So anyway, we had some friendsmove off about an hour away or a
little further, and so weactually went to their house
(30:00):
with some other couples and weplayed dominoes one night
Several times.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
We've done it several times.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah, and that was fun.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
That was a long way to go, but I don't even remember
how you played.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
You'd have to give me just like Rummy.
I don't remember.
You always have to give me arefresher on that.
Is it rummy 5000 that we played?
That's what we play, becausethat's what my mama taught me to
play, but you can play to athousand or play, oh yeah, you
play to whatever you want toplay, but it depends on the wild
card, right?
Yeah, what you want to put itat, or if you've got wild cards
yeah was there another onebesides rummy that we played?
Speaker 2 (30:32):
there was another one right we play spades, but you
gotta have couples.
You gotta do that with couples.
Rummy, you don't rummy, youhave just two players spades you
gotta have more than two yeah,because you have teams, you bid.
You like bid like how manybooks can you get two?
(30:52):
Well, I can get four, so menu'sgonna do six and then they'll.
There's like 13 altogether orsomething like that, I don't
remember.
It's been a while since that.
I love to play card games.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
I've never learned how to play poker or anything
like that.
I think I would like poker if Iknew how to play it, because I
know guys that play poker.
I'm sure it's fun andeverything, but I ain't got it.
When you're talking about aflush, a royal flush- Well, like
some of that.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Well, like Yahtzee is when you got two of a kind,
three of a kind.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
That's a board game, though, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Yahtzee's a dice game , but it's like you got a full
house and you got a straight,and you got a small straight and
a large straight.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
That's like poker too , ain't it?
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Yeah, but I don't know what's a small straight.
What's a straight?
Speaker 2 (31:46):
One, two, three, four it's like in order.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
What's that other thing?
Did you say a flush?
Speaker 2 (31:52):
I didn't say a flush, I said a full house.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
What's a full house?
I thought that was one, two,three, four.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
A full house is where you have three of one and two
of another, like if you havethree fives and two twos.
That's a full house, or atleast on Yahtzee it is.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
No clue.
Yeah, I like it.
No clue.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
I get hooked on that on the phone, sometimes when I
don't have anything to do.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Like well Blackjack, go play Yachting Really.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Mm-hmm, I like Yachting.
Speaker 1 (32:20):

like it yeah.
You win or lose and you want itfast-paced.
You win or lose, you want itfast-paced.

about it, yeah, just do it.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
That's right.
Just do it.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
That's off the beaten path.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Yeah, we got two dogs in here by the way.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
This is just a hodgepodge of I'm tired, let's
go.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
I think Coco's ready to go out.
We locked her in here.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
And I told you not to .
You're right or the simple factthat she's wandering around.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Maybe this is recording this time and you
might be able to see on YouTubewhat Coco looks like.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Yeah, she's scared of you because you got on to her.
Good, she needs to go get inher bed.
Speaker 1 (33:16):

Me.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Well, I mean, I don't , I do everything right, so I
don't have to be told what to do.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (33:28):
That's exactly right.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Hmm, okay.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
What else?
Speaker 1 (33:36):

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Oh see, we're right at it, we're good.
Y'all don't want us no morethan 30 minutes.

We ain't done much this week, but ready for d now
yeah which we didn't even getready for it.
All right, that's all we got,that's it short and sweet today.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
Yep, we're just talking about life this is what
this, these episodes are about.
Whether you like it or don'tlike it, this is give us
something to talk about.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Give us a topic.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
You know, I come up with no, no, no, no, no, Because
you tell me you don't liketopics.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
I don't like topics.
I just want to get in here andtalk, but not today, because I'm
tired and I can tell it.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
So you tell me you don't like topics?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
but then you're going to throw it out there to
anybody that watches or listensand say, hey, give me a topic,
something interesting to talkabout you, just want to talk
about news.
Look, I would you want to talkabout news and stories, and no,
if I could get you to talk aboutpolitics, we would start
talking about politics.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
I'm out and I would play you some, you know, some
headlines, some some newsfootage, some just, you know, 20
minute videos.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
I'm just not in it.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
And then get your point of view.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
That's your thing.
That's not our thing.
Politics is not our thing.
That's your thing.
I'm like Jody.
Who do I vote for?
Okay, let's go.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Not really.
Yeah, really no, not when itcomes to like the main ones, but
when the other ones yes reallyno.
Well, that's your fault.
Ann, why don't you keep up?
Speaker 2 (35:17):
with it, because I don't, I don't.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
So if I'd have told you to vote for Biden, I'd have
said no.
If I said vote for Kamala, I'dhave said no.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Well then, Maybe we shouldn't tell people who we
vote for I don't care.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
I voted for Trump.
I don't care.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Oh Lord, Nobody's going to listen to us now.
He's bad.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
No, he's not.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
Alright, we've kept them enough.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Well, uh, I think Did I say episode what?
Speaker 2 (35:48):
I have no clue.
136.
I think this is 136.
What did I say?
136?
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Yeah, it would be if you hadn't made a stop for a
little while.
I think we should record twicea week.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
You've lost your mind .
Speaker 1 (36:00):
I think we should.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
I can't go live every night and record twice a week.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Why.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
I get more out.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Have you been watching any more of your girl
and her husband, that podcastthey've got?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Jeff and Jordan.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Jeff and Jordan.
Yeah, do they come out once aweek?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
How does that work?
How long is their episodes?
Are they an hour long?
Speaker 2 (36:25):
I don't know if they're quite an hour, maybe
like 45 minutes or something.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
But see, when you have those, see, there's almost
basically a production crew thathandles all of their stuff, so
they don't have to do anyediting or anything like topics.
Well, I know they talk on theirown, but there is going to be
some little topics, because theyplay like a little game at the
end or in the middle, don't they?
Sometimes they do questions,yeah, um so it's a lot easier
(36:50):
for somebody when they're doingthat they.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
They don't always do topics.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
They talk about what they've done, the what during
the week and that's what I saytheir kids going to do sports or
whatever like that yeah, butsome of the stuff is laid out
there for them, so I I guess, Idon't know.
Yeah, I mean, I don't feel likeit is well, just like they
don't have to go up, he's a he'sa.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
He's a.
He got a new job TV.
He's a TV person, so I mean heknows.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
My point being is like they don't go out and get
sponsorships and stuff, but theyalready have it because they
have a team behind them.
They're probably hired bywhoever to do this, like most of
them are Must be nice.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
We only know them from Big Brother.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
From how long ago?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Has it been 20 years?
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Speaking of Big Brother.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
No, it has not been 20 years.
No, no, not them, because I wastrying to think how their kid
was and I can't remember.
Now, Well.
And that was a couple of yearsafter they got off of Big
Brother.
All right, we're out of Big.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Brother, all right, we're out of here.
Appreciate you listening.
Check us out on YouTube.
We're having problems with thevideo, so let me tell you this
real quick before we go.
Okay, I know we're trying towrap this thing up.
So on TikTok, I put a video outfor the other podcast.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
I'm out.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
And it's.
Let me tell you what thesubject is.
No, we talked about this JellyRoll.
Jelly Roll picks his nose.
They're at a UFC fight.
You got President Trump.
This is right.
This is before President Trumpwas inaugurated, right?
So this is probably October,november of last year.
So you got Trump.
(38:35):
You got Elon Musk, I think, kidRock, all that, and then behind
them, you've got.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
What a great combination you got.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Jelly Roll, and he's just behind it.
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Great combination.
Speaker 1 (38:52):
Oh, anyway, he just starts digging in that nose
right and picks his nose rightin front of everybody and then
eats it.
It's horrible, anyway.
I put a video of that out.
Is it a template or a templatehow do you say it that you use
off of TikTok?
Speaker 2 (39:09):
A template.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
A template.
So yeah, it's Eddie Murphylooking up and it looks
perfectly as he's doing and he'slike, got this look on his face
and there's just music playing,right, there's no words or
anything like that.
So so I'll put.
I'll just put it out there andit had 900 views in like no time
, right, and it just stopped.
And then it I went under alittle thing and it said that
(39:32):
that video was restricted tocertain audiences.
And then when you go into it,it says audience of 18 years or
younger can't view it because ofthe profanity.
Everything it was saying wasabout the language used in the
video, so it gave you the optionto uh appeal it, yeah, appeal
(39:56):
it, and so I did that becauseit's it's music, it's just
there's no words in the music,anything.
Um, I was thinking they weregonna do it for, like, the
graphic nature if you'resensitive and he's picking this,
though, because you know how itis nowadays, whatever so so I,
yeah, so I appealed it, and then, just a little while ago, I
just happened to look oneverything and I got approved
(40:17):
and so they took the restrictionoff.
So take that tiktok they justheard you.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
I just found your whole account's gone, oops, I
just found that interesting?
Speaker 1 (40:30):
yeah, is it not?
And I got blocked on one of theyoutube videos because of the
copyright infringement.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
You've got to pay royalties.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
Oh yeah, but you know what?
But it was just on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
When I did the same video on TikTok or on Facebook,
it was fine it has their ownmusic that you can choose from,
and then you go to a differentplatform and that music doesn't
have different platform and thatmusic's not doesn't have the
right to that music.
That platform doesn't have theright to the same music.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
But this wasn't.
This wasn't last name music.
This was off of a movie.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
A clip from a movie that I put on there.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Like a 15 second clip .
I know I've done that before,but it was fine with all other
social media, but YouTube saidnot today, jack, so I don't know
I don't get it.
Speaker 2 (41:17):
I don't understand.
I'm going to take a nap.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
All right, thanks for watching and listening See you
next time.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
Peace out, bye-bye, girl Scouting you.
Welcome back Episode 36, maybe.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
And we made it.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
We made it.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Barely Last night.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
We did.
I thought you were talkingabout, like the critical point
of when this has to be editedand released.
No, down to the wire again,sunday after church when we're
recording this.
We had bad storms Saturdayevening.
We had a weekend full of events, or mainly one event at church.
(00:47):
Right, that we were involvedwith, and then we had to kind of
I'm the gopher.
Had to rearrange everything forthe storms to come in Saturday
evening Right.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
And it didn't hit us, it hit all around, kind of.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
That was weird.
It did hit all around, seemedlike.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I think Friday night was worse to me because all the
lightning and thunder and we hadsome hail.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
That was Saturday morning at 4 o'clock in the
morning.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
That's true.
That's true, that was notFriday 4 am 4 am.
So if it was 1 o'clock in themorning, do you say Friday night
?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
No Friday night at 1 o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Saturday you say Saturday.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Saturday, that's Saturday, but that was rough,
rougher to me.
Yeah, but it wasn't nothing.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, we didn't have to deal with the tornadoes or
anything like that, which wasfine by me, but it's one of
those four to five hour ordealswhere you're just sitting there
watching the weather.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Because they just keep popping up.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Watching James Spann.
Yeah, because.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
If you don't know, we live in Alabama.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Right, and James Spann, if you've never heard of
him, he's the main weather guy,for it's a region I wouldn't
just say Alabama, would youSurely he's known a little bit
creeping into Tennessee, georgia, mississippi, that type of
thing, I don't know it's got tohave a following right.
It's only one I watch Respectthe polygon.
(02:09):
That's what he says.
Respect the polygon.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
But I heard 32 people died from the tornadoes.
I never heard a number.
I didn't know.
I was going to look that uptoday.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
That's what they said on the news this morning.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I never heard a number.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And I can't remember how many tourneys they said, but
it's a lot.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
It seemed like a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
So hopefully it'll be a while One's too many yeah.
So, Alright, but other thanthat, what's going on?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
I'm tired.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
We were going to talk about a hotel situation and you
said you were going to talkabout a hotel situation.
And you said you were going totry and look some information up
on it, but it never happened.
I was just kidding.
We got our regular Winston hereagain In the chair, by the way,
our regular guest.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Those dogs get treated better than I do.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Our regular guest.
She wants to be petted anyway,back to the whole hotel he's
looking at me through your legsyeah.
So what was the deal that youwas telling me about the hotel?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
it said, if you were local you could not rent a hotel
room.
They would not rent to a localperson.
It was just on Facebook, so youtake that with whatever you
want to take it with, but thatwas the discussion people were
having on Facebook was in ourlocal town.
(03:35):
It was all town people, so butit's a chain hotel.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It's not like a.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Well, they said none of the hotels would let you, so
they're saying all of them.
And then some of them would say, yes, they will, so you're
saying like a Comfort Inn, aHoliday Inn?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
you're talking about all of those.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I don't even know what we got.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I don't either, several.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
The ones out what we call industrial, the ones out
there.
They said they wouldn't let youand and what's the reasoning?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
I don't know, I don't have a reason, but I told you,
though, if I call, if I knowthere's people that just get in
whatever city it is even a bigcity they get a hotel room, even
though they might live in thecity, but they're getting a
hotel for whatever reason.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Why does it matter?
Just sell me a flipping room,that's what I'm saying A rent me
room.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
So if I call and say, hey, have y'all got plenty of
rooms available for tonight, youknow, if I come over there and
rent a you know a single bed,whatever, and they, yeah, yeah,
we're good.
I mean, we got plenty ofvacancies, all this kind of
stuff, All right.
So then when I get there andthen I give them my license,
they oh, I, I see that you livewithin 10 miles of the hotel.
(04:43):
I'm sorry we can't reach you.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
That's what people were saying.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
That doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
That cannot be true.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
I don't know they want your money.
Right, right, so they're goingto turn money away.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
So they're trying to say it's because of a kind of
like tourist type thing Ifyou're from out of town, town
you're coming off the interstatebam.
These hotels are for thosepeople, not for locals.
No, they're saying somethingabout drugs, was it not?
Speaker 2 (05:13):
or yeah, or not being able to kick out that people
come in and stay and stay andstay.
Well, how can they if theydon't pay, if you if you get, if
they pay, who cares?
Speaker 1 (05:20):
yeah, if they don't pay, kick them out.
If they pay for three nightsand on that fourth night they're
not leaving, what do you do?
You call the law, get them out.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
You get them out.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
They don't have the right to stay there, right?
Isn't the law going to knock onthat door and say, hey, y'all
got to get out?
I don't know, unless you'regoing to pay.
I don't know, unless they canclaim it for it's theirs.
I don't know, I don't know howall that works.
I would not be a tenant,because you hear people all
these when you rent to someoneand then you can't get them out
of that, out of your house andthey have legal right because
(05:54):
they've been there for howeverlong yeah, but it should be if I
gave you every state'sdifferent.
You're giving them a notice,right?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
You know hey you got 60 days.
It's the act of Congress tokick somebody out when they're
written.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
So squatters, Is that what it's called?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
That's what it's called a squatter.
But there's also people that'sgot a house that's vacant.
Say, you've got a grandparentthat passed away.
All right, nobody lives intheir house now, but you take
care of it.
You have to go over there andyou know, cut the grass, just
clean up every once in a whileall that stuff.
Next thing you know somebody'smoved into it and you're like go
(06:34):
over there.
Hey, hey, hey, this is my house.
You cannot get it, I'm sorry.
No, we're here.
You can't kick them out, youcan't get rid of them.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
It's not that easy.
That is amazing yeah, that'stheft.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Theft of property, that's what I call it.
So if you wire the laws likethey are and they can do it I
know, if you get in my truck andthen you won't let me get in my
truck, yeah, or you lock thedoor and you crack the window so
no, you're not getting one.
So the cops will be like I'msorry, there's nothing we can do
maybe they wouldn.
No, I mean, it's not that wayfor vehicles, that's what I'm
(07:07):
saying.
Why is it that way for houses?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
We don't know about all this stuff.
We're just speaking the way wefeel right.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
It's the truth.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
It's on the old face bag I don't know about that If
it's on this that and the other.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
That's what James Bond calls it.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
If it's on this, that and the other, it's true.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Even though it's our opinion, it's true.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Take that with a grain of salt.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
What do you think about Airbnbs?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I don't know, I'd like to stay in one.
Since we're talking abouthotels and that kind of thing,
how about I stay in?
Speaker 1 (07:40):
My thing is how do you trust he just shot that down
?
We're talking about Airbnbs.
We're not talking about wherewe're going or doing anything,
so what I'm asking do you feelsafe?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
It's a little weird to me.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I'm going to Chattanooga.
Let's look up Airbnbs and let'sfind the cheapest one.
There's one, $70 a night.
We're going to stay two nights.
It's actually a small littlehouse behind these people's
house.
It's a one bedroom, one bath ina kitchenette.
Say, hey, we'll do that.
(08:16):
There's pictures, looks new,it's fine.
Bam, we're there.
Well, all these goofballsnowadays that have hidden
cameras and stuff like that.
The camera thing is where, Ithink Are you really going to
trust going to some stranger'shouse and pay them money to stay
?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
It happens, especially if you're staying in
their house.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
If it's a house house and they've just got like an
upstairs that's vacant and theyrent out, no, I ain't staying in
there you can they rent out.
No, I ain't staying in I'm notstaying that ain't how that
works what's a bread and bread,bread and a bed and breakfast?
Isn't that the same thing?
The people live at the house,mainly, and but you're staying
there also, and that would havewell, they have their own little
room but not like who thepeople that like that own it
(09:02):
right.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
So that's okay, yeah, okay.
Well, it's the same as a hotel,it's not that much different.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
It's a lot different.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
You don't know I'm not in a house.
You don't know that somebody.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
I'm not locked in a house with strangers that I'm
renting from for a day or twothat we don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
At Airbnb?
They're not.
You're talking about justrenters.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
No, I'm just talking about.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
An Airbnb, the people that own it are not there.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
You need to get on that phone right there and look
that up and see if they are notthere.
Can you not rent out an extrabedroom in your home?
Speaker 2 (09:44):
That's for people that need it for a month or
something.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
No, no, this is like I know of, like, that's not an.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Airbnb.
An Airbnb is when you just gorent a house.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Call it what you want to Take the Airbnb out, all
right, and so I watched this ongame day one time where they
were talking about around someof these big coliseums.
On game day or two days leadingup to it, some of these houses
that people own around it theyare renting out now I can't
(10:16):
remember if it's the whole houseor partially, you know a couple
of bedrooms or whatever it isfor these people that's coming
into these games from out oftown people are drunk.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
They don't know I'm just saying so it's a thing
that's not like an airbnb.
An airbnb, the people are notstaying there.
It's a house or a little condothing that they're renting out.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I don't know if you know that for a fact.
That's my question.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I do know that for a fact.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
You're just saying that.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I know that for a fact.
Some of our girls rent Airbnbsand the people are not there
with them.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'm not saying all of them, I'm just saying You're
talking about something totallydifferent than an airbnb.
I'm just saying if I wanted torent out, not written out your
upstairs?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
that's not an airbnb.
I think it is part of theairbnb.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
I think you can get on there and you can look for
the whole apartment slash housethat you want, or if it's like
just a room.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
I don't think so I think it is so.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
are you saying you would stay or would not stay?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I would stay at an Airbnb, but I have thought about
the camera thing makes me alittle iffy, but I guess you
just got to get over that.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I don't know, I don't think I'm doing it.
I just feel like I've listenedand watched enough of these
dates.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
That's your problem.
You've got to quit.
Enough of these date lines.
You've got to quit that.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
To where they've got their kid locked up down in the
basement tied up, and then nowI'm going to rent part of their
house from them and think I'msafe.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You're not renting a part of the house for an Airbnb.
You get the whole dang houseAll right on their property.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
They have that small little studio apartment, slash
whatever one room, a kitchenetteand a bathroom.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
And they just need a renter.
They need somebody.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
That's like a month renter or something.
I'm asleep in there and I wakeup and I creep my eyes open
barely and somebody's standingat the foot of the bed.
It's the owner of the housethat's in front of me.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
You're talking about like college, how they go to
these dorms and you're stayingwith somebody.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
You don't know when you get a roommate.
That's not what I'm talkingabout.
I'm talking about I just rentedan Airbnb.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
You're not renting an Airbnb.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
People have an Airbnb on their property.
It's like if you had a guesthouse.
This is the example I'm usingnow and I'm just saying as I
wake up, dude is standing at thefoot of my bed watching me
sleep Because, guess what, hehas keys to the place that I
rented from him and it's anAirbnb.
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Well, that could happen at a hotel Because crazy
people they have the keys.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
But I trust a hotel more than a All right, when
we're talking about hotels, theroom on the outside or the room
on the inside where the door isDoes it matter?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
It doesn't bother me.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
I'm not really afraid of people having access to my
hotel room from outside.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
No.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
That's not a worry.
But yeah, if you're going totalk about which is safer, of
course being inside of a hoteland you've got hallways to where
your room's at Agree ordisagree, of course you're going
to be safe, safer I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Somebody wants to get in.
They're going to get in.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Yeah, but why are they going to pick me?
Is it random when these peopledo this?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
is it just random?
Why is somebody going to rentan Airbnb and come be at the end
of your bed?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Because people are jacked up in the head.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Okay, same thing for a hotel.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
They could be hiding in there.
You know there was people thathad little corridors in between
the walls.
Okay, see that they could makelike a peahole.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
See, Make a pinhole in there and look at you.
So there you go.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
That brings me me the story I wish I'd have here we
go.
I told you about it.
I wish I'd like printed thisoff to talk about it, but it's,
I think it's new jersey, newyork.
Well, I use my phone to record,all right, so my phone's not
available, but I do have alaptop right here, but I don't
have time to like get on it nowand turn it on all that stuff,
(14:14):
so I'll just speak of what Iremember of it.
I don't even remember whereexactly it's at new york, new
jersey, somewhere like that.
A 32 year old guy was beinglocked in this house by his
stepmother for over two decadesand he weighed 68 pounds.
(14:36):
He's, I think they said, fivefoot nine.
Either way, it's either fivefoot seven and he couldn't take
her and get out of there 20years ago, how old would he have
been?
12 exactly.
So he's been locked in hishouse since then.
He was going to school and thenhe just stopped going to school
(14:59):
and I don't think nobody everreally checked up on him.
But she would give him How'sthat I don't know Well, how's
anything?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
If my kid didn't go to school.
You got a phone call.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
So he told them that he was hungry every day, all day
, for years, because he nevergot enough to eat and she would
only give him.
What I remember reading aboutit was two cups of water a day,
which was not enough, and heremembers drinking, sometimes
(15:31):
out of the toilet.
Getting water out of the toiletto drink.
You've got to think, 68 pounds,68 pounds.
Who knows what this guy lookedlike.
I haven't seen any pictures.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Is this recent?
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Yeah, it was like last week, last Monday, the
stepmom, I don't know Where'sthe dad, apparently they're
hitting, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
If she was a stepmom.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
He might be buried in the backyard If she's treating
this dude, this kid, like that Imean, if she was a stepmom he's
got to have.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Where's his mom, Where's his dad.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I don't think they dive that deep in.
It was just a headline becauseof this happening At that time.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I don't think nobody knew Well, now I need to know.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Well, I'm sure it.
Ask Nancy Grace.
She's the one that'll check inon this oh never mind.
Ain't she the one?
No, she does the people thatget murdered and killed right.
She doesn't deal with justregular crazy stuff, which I
don't care for her anyway.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
But what do you think about that?
How would you like to be?
Oh, and the way he got loosewas he caught the house on fire?
Speaker 2 (16:36):
He caught his room on fire.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Heck yeah, smart boy, he mixed some stuff up?
Not really, but and, I think,trying I don't know if he was
doing that to try and burn, likewhat he was tied up with, or if
he was actually just trying tostart a fire so that he could
get some emergency workers tothe house, somebody to the house
, to where maybe there's achance to find out he was on his
(16:58):
last leg.
You got to think, year afteryear after year, what if you're
in year three of this beinglocked at your house and you
don't know, you've got 17 plusmore years that you're going to
be locked in there.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
How do you lock somebody up for that long?
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You got to ask her I need Netflix.
Oh yeah, you're talking aboutsome stuff that'll come out.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
yeah, it'll be all over the place netflix, hulu,
paramount, wherever I sent you ashow last night that we needed

So anyway, but what else I don't know.
I just feel like we've been onthe go.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I'm just I don't know .
I just feel like we've been onthe go.
I'm just ready to lay her down.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
I know it was almost like you gave me a deadline.
I told you.
I was like, look, it's a busyweekend, I don't know when we're
going to squeeze this in.
And then it didn't happenyesterday, which was Saturday,
and then.
So I told you earlier.
I said you realize, like rightafter church we've got to do
(19:23):
this.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
And then we get stuck at church because we have to
finish part of the event, and sowhen we got here you got here
before I did and I'm like comeon, or?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I'm done.
Yeah, you sent me like adeadline 15 minutes.
I'm in here.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I'm waiting.
Get your honey in here and getthis rolling.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
And then you didn't even give me 15.
The next thing I saw it saidfive minutes or I'm out, and I'm
like what's up with that?
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I said five-minute countdown, because I said 115,
we're recording.
Well, it was 110, so I wasgiving you a warning Five-minute
countdown and I'm out.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
So if we reversed that and I told you that, what
would you do?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I'd just say bye.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
You'd be like oh well .
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Bye, I'm out.
Why, I don't know, I don't know, I have to go back again
tonight at 4.30.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
So you just need a nap.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
I just want to close my eyes.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
You just need a nap to refresh, recharge your
batteries and you'll be fine.
You think that's what's gonnado it.
I didn't even do nothing, so Ididn't even do nothing and I'm
so flipping tired.
No, it's just like I can't holdmy eyes open.
You did, but it's a matter ofbeing there, because there's
only there's certain tasks thatwe have to do at certain times,
kind of you know basically justbehind the scenes yeah, and
(20:31):
basically feeding everybody atthis yeah so you've got a break
in, but it's not like a breakwhere you're going to leave and
go somewhere.
You can go home whatever.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Well, if it hadn't been the weather we could have
recorded yesterday during thatbreak.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Yeah, everything yesterday got pushed up.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah, it all got shoved into, so instead of it
lasted all night long it gotpushed to where.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Hey, at 3 o'clock it's over.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Yeah, because we usually have a big break.
Yeah, and then yesterday wedidn't, so then we have people
canceling on us before it evenstarted.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah, you know that's a thing too, when you cancel an
event.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I know people are scared of weather, but I mean.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
But when do you decide to cancel?
Hey, schools are the world'sworst.
You get a little bit of.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
With weather.
I wish they would leave thekids in there, because to me
some kids are better off atschool.
Oh you're talking about like atornado, yeah, yeah, they don't
need to release it, they'rebetter off at school than they
are at home when Mom and Daddy'sat work, because they can't get
off work.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Do you think it's the school not wanting to have the
responsibility of having thosekids?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
there.
I don't.
You don't think that's it.
No, I think it's.
Yeah, I think it's becausethey've gotten, they've let them
out before in the middle or notin the middle, but like when
something was about to happenand then they get stuck and
they're like, oh, we shouldn'thave done that.
So now they're just like at thedrop of a hat.
(21:55):
We just ain't doing it.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
But that, that and then.
So now they're just like at thedrop of a hat we just ain't
doing it.
But that goes back to the wholething of being responsible.
So are they afraid if theyleave them at school?
Speaker 2 (22:05):
and if something that their responsibility falls on
them if something happens well,it does how many times some of
those kids are more safe atschool than they are at home
tornadoes hit anything rightcourt, but you hear about houses
.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
How many times did they hit schools?
I know they do yeah I get that,but I'm just saying I feel like
, hey, if it's anytime duringthe day, unless it's just
sitting in the hall with thebook on the head.
You know, but it's easy to saythis, though, but if I was, you
know, I might want to send themhome to him if I was in charge
of it, because yeah, I wouldn'twant that responsibility of
having them at school, no way.
(22:40):
But if you've got a, two-hourhead heads up and they know, hey
, it's gonna hit, it's gonna berough.
Then yeah, like send them out Istill feel like they're safer
at school than they are at home,some of them oh, there's no
doubt you're sending them homewhen you get, if you live in a
mobile home, a double-wide,anything like that great place
to live, but terrible for whenweather comes.
(23:02):
I mean you get high winds likethat, yeah, and we saw that in a
town just down the road fromyesterday.
Oh, I see.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
And that was— A bus had flipped up on a— yeah, like
on a roof type thing.
On a roof, yeah, a um, yeah,like on a roof.
Yeah, I was gonna go back tochurch so the picture yesterday
we're talking about that.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
You were saying that it was trees down across the
road and I said that looked likethe bottom part of a trailer
yeah, yeah, it was a trailer,was it?
Yeah, so it got flipped on theside and was scooted across the
road crazy.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It hit close to our youth minister, yeah, but he was
good, so that's good.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
But you've got people that are really afraid.
You say storm, and they're likelooking over their shoulder oh
yeah, what is that?
When is it supposed to be here?
And they get prepared.
And there's nothing wrong withthat, right.
There's nothing wrong withoverreacting about it, because,
(24:01):
hey, it's better to be safe,right.
But I'm just not that way.
I'm just like I don't want toget caught up in any kind of
major storm.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
But you may just get our helmets out yeah, I'll be
prepared.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
I got our, we got we do.
We've got three helmets and Igot a backpack, by the way.

little bit of pollen and allthis kind of stuff and your eyes
are just like, seem likethey're fogging.
I'm just ready to put myglasses on, but they're like
what if we need to leave and gosomewhere where it's safer and
all this stuff?
But go somewhere where it'ssafer and all that stuff?
But I was telling you it's like.
So I had everything set up,almost like a firefighter to
(24:58):

I was like, if we're gonnaleave, I got it set up to where
you know how the firefightersused to, would just like step

So yeah, we had backpacks fullof.
I had battery chargers.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
I had the computer.
I had phone chargers, which Iknew.
If the power went off wecouldn't use the phone chargers,
but I knew, if it was evengetting close, that I'd go ahead
and plug mine up.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
And then I had the computer because I knew that you
could run the computer from thehotspot on your phone if we
needed to watch weather you knowbigger, if there were several
people wanting to watch orwhatever.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
And I've got that little power bank.
Yeah, that you can charge threephones at a time off of it.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Yeah, so I knew, and then I've also got that.
Then I packed tennis shoes,because I wore sandals, but I
packed tennis shoes.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
I've got the crank weather radio.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Where was that?
Speaker 1 (26:28):
I had it in the backpack.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
In your backpack Better.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
I was ready to go.
Gonna test it out for the firsttime.
I don't know how much you haveto.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
Is it a weather radio ?
No, it's just a radio, right?
It's not a weather radio.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah, it's got a weather radio feature on it and
it's a regular radio.
Then it's got two LED, one'slike a spotlight and one's like
a regular light.
It's a little thing that youtwist out and it's just like a
reading light.
It's pretty neat for as cheapas it was, like 25 bucks or
something.
But hey, a little bit I fooledwith it.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
I'm gonna let you sit there and crank it, though.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Yeah, I don't know, I don't want to crank it can you
crank it for like 30 seconds andit'll last for 15 minutes, or
like every two or three minutesare you having to put a little?
Speaker 2 (27:10):
you should have started cranking it yesterday
morning probably.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I don't think you have to do all that I don't
think it's happening.
I don't think you can crank itfor an hour and it's gonna last
you for three days.
It's not like that well, that'swhat I want well, I'm sure I
want somebody to crank it for me, and so I don't want to be the
cranker naughty it no nose goeswhat does that mean?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
naughty it, nose goes .
That first one touches theirnose is naughty it.
No, I've neverose goes?
I've never heard that, oh mygosh, how old are you?

Well, I'm about to, if you'lllet me.
Well, so we're at Walmart.
Nicholas said you got to comeover here to the board game
section.

I took a picture of every game.
(28:15):
They've got over there andthere's some questionable games
for adults at Walmart.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Maybe I'll read off next time we do this Maybe not.
Yeah, so I just wanted you tobe aware of that.
I know some card games they got.

I don't know, because we don't.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
I just didn't know they had these.
I mean, it's a big enoughsection.
I was shocked, but anyway.
Maybe that's a new thing but Isaid I don't ever even think
about cards anymore, like thatwould be a great thing if the
power's off.
You ain't got nothing to do.
Where's the deck of cards inthis house?
Speaker 2 (29:09):
but my friend told me yesterday.
She said that she was packingtheir bag and they had games and
I well, I'm not taking anygames.
She said y'all should takecards.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
I'm like oh, yeah, oh really yeah, Brandy Shout out.
Yeah, we ought to do that,because we used to play rummy.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
You won't do nothing now.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Me.
Yeah, busy, busy, yeah, that'swhat I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
If the power's out and we can play cards and
dominoes, because I love somedominoes and now you won't play
them anymore.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Hey, we got on a kicker with dominoes several
years ago.
We had some friends that westarted playing.
Matter of fact, it was aroundmy 40th birthday.
That was how long ago, yeah itwas actually nine years ago,
thank you.
So anyway, we had some friendsmove off about an hour away or a
little further, and so weactually went to their house
(30:00):
with some other couples and weplayed dominoes one night
Several times.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
We've done it several times.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah, and that was fun.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
That was a long way to go, but I don't even remember
how you played.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
You'd have to give me just like Rummy.
I don't remember.
You always have to give me arefresher on that.
Is it rummy 5000 that we played?
That's what we play, becausethat's what my mama taught me to
play, but you can play to athousand or play, oh yeah, you
play to whatever you want toplay, but it depends on the wild
card, right?
Yeah, what you want to put itat, or if you've got wild cards
yeah was there another onebesides rummy that we played?
Speaker 2 (30:32):
there was another one right we play spades, but you
gotta have couples.
You gotta do that with couples.
Rummy, you don't rummy, youhave just two players spades you
gotta have more than two yeah,because you have teams, you bid.
You like bid like how manybooks can you get two?
(30:52):
Well, I can get four, so menu'sgonna do six and then they'll.
There's like 13 altogether orsomething like that, I don't
remember.
It's been a while since that.
I love to play card games.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
I've never learned how to play poker or anything
like that.
I think I would like poker if Iknew how to play it, because I
know guys that play poker.
I'm sure it's fun andeverything, but I ain't got it.
When you're talking about aflush, a royal flush- Well, like
some of that.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Well, like Yahtzee is when you got two of a kind,
three of a kind.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
That's a board game, though, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Yahtzee's a dice game , but it's like you got a full
house and you got a straight,and you got a small straight and
a large straight.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
That's like poker too , ain't it?
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Yeah, but I don't know what's a small straight.
What's a straight?
Speaker 2 (31:46):
One, two, three, four it's like in order.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
What's that other thing?
Did you say a flush?
Speaker 2 (31:52):
I didn't say a flush, I said a full house.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
What's a full house?
I thought that was one, two,three, four.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
A full house is where you have three of one and two
of another, like if you havethree fives and two twos.
That's a full house, or atleast on Yahtzee it is.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
No clue.
Yeah, I like it.
No clue.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
I get hooked on that on the phone, sometimes when I
don't have anything to do.

Why.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
I get more out.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Have you been watching any more of your girl
and her husband, that podcastthey've got?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Jeff and Jordan.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Jeff and Jordan.
Yeah, do they come out once aweek?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
How does that work?
How long is their episodes?
Are they an hour long?
Speaker 2 (36:25):
I don't know if they're quite an hour, maybe
like 45 minutes or something.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
But see, when you have those, see, there's almost
basically a production crew thathandles all of their stuff, so
they don't have to do anyediting or anything like topics.
Well, I know they talk on theirown, but there is going to be
some little topics, because theyplay like a little game at the
end or in the middle, don't they?
Sometimes they do questions,yeah, um so it's a lot easier
(36:50):
for somebody when they're doingthat they.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
They don't always do topics.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
They talk about what they've done, the what during
the week and that's what I saytheir kids going to do sports or
whatever like that yeah, butsome of the stuff is laid out
there for them, so I I guess, Idon't know.
Yeah, I mean, I don't feel likeit is well, just like they
don't have to go up, he's a he'sa.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
He's a.
He got a new job TV.
He's a TV person, so I mean heknows.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
My point being is like they don't go out and get
sponsorships and stuff, but theyalready have it because they
have a team behind them.
They're probably hired bywhoever to do this, like most of
them are Must be nice.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
We only know them from Big Brother.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
From how long ago?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Has it been 20 years?
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Speaking of Big Brother.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
No, it has not been 20 years.
No, no, not them, because I wastrying to think how their kid
was and I can't remember.
Now, Well.
And that was a couple of yearsafter they got off of Big
Brother.
All right, we're out of Big.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Brother, all right, we're out of here.
Appreciate you listening.
Check us out on YouTube.
We're having problems with thevideo, so let me tell you this
real quick before we go.
Okay, I know we're trying towrap this thing up.
So on TikTok, I put a video outfor the other podcast.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
I'm out.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
And it's.
Let me tell you what thesubject is.
No, we talked about this JellyRoll.
Jelly Roll picks his nose.
They're at a UFC fight.
You got President Trump.
This is right.
This is before President Trumpwas inaugurated, right?
So this is probably October,november of last year.
So you got Trump.
(38:35):
You got Elon Musk, I think, kidRock, all that, and then behind
them, you've got.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
What a great combination you got.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Jelly Roll, and he's just behind it.
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Great combination.
Speaker 1 (38:52):
Oh, anyway, he just starts digging in that nose
right and picks his nose rightin front of everybody and then
eats it.
It's horrible, anyway.
I put a video of that out.
Is it a template or a templatehow do you say it that you use
off of TikTok?
Speaker 2 (39:09):
A template.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
A template.
So yeah, it's Eddie Murphylooking up and it looks
perfectly as he's doing and he'slike, got this look on his face
and there's just music playing,right, there's no words or
anything like that.
So so I'll put.
I'll just put it out there andit had 900 views in like no time
, right, and it just stopped.
And then it I went under alittle thing and it said that
(39:32):
that video was restricted tocertain audiences.
And then when you go into it,it says audience of 18 years or
younger can't view it because ofthe profanity.
Everything it was saying wasabout the language used in the
video, so it gave you the optionto uh appeal it, yeah, appeal
(39:56):
it, and so I did that becauseit's it's music, it's just
there's no words in the music,anything.
Um, I was thinking they weregonna do it for, like, the
graphic nature if you'resensitive and he's picking this,
though, because you know how itis nowadays, whatever so so I,
yeah, so I appealed it, and then, just a little while ago, I
just happened to look oneverything and I got approved
(40:17):
and so they took the restrictionoff.
So take that tiktok they justheard you.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
I just found your whole account's gone, oops, I
just found that interesting?
Speaker 1 (40:30):
yeah, is it not?
And I got blocked on one of theyoutube videos because of the
copyright infringement.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
You've got to pay royalties.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
Oh yeah, but you know what?
But it was just on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
When I did the same video on TikTok or on Facebook,
it was fine it has their ownmusic that you can choose from,
and then you go to a differentplatform and that music doesn't
have different platform and thatmusic's not doesn't have the
right to that music.
That platform doesn't have theright to the same music.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
But this wasn't.
This wasn't last name music.
This was off of a movie.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
A clip from a movie that I put on there.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Like a 15 second clip .
I know I've done that before,but it was fine with all other
social media, but YouTube saidnot today, jack, so I don't know
