Speaker 1 (00:18):
how do you feel about spices?

Speaker 2 (00:21):
I like spices.
Are you talking about me beingspicy?

Speaker 1 (00:24):
I know you're spicy.
What about cooking spices?
I like them Do you use them allthe time.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
I do not use them all the time, but I would like to.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Well, mccormick, do you know who McCormick is?
Yeah, They've been around alittle while A little while he's
warning customers to checktheir spices.
Great Sounds scary.
Customers to check their spicesGreat Sounds scary, doesn't it?
Sure, I'm going to read thisarticle to you.
Oh, you're going to read thewhole article.
It'll be like two minutes long.
It seems that everyone hasspices in their homes.

(00:55):
Is that right, whether you're agourmet chef or you're just
going to heat something up inthe microwave.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
Correct, I got salt heat something up in the
microwave correct.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
I got salt, salt and pepper.
So, in fact, according tocensus data, as well as a Simons
National Consumer Survey,300.62 million Americans used
spices and seasonings in 2020.
And McCormick, the largestspice manufacturer in the world,
has a warning for all of them.

(01:26):
That really sounds scary,doesn't it Like?
Are we supposed to check ourspices?

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Our spices in our cabinet are so old it ain't even
funny.
Hold on, let's get in there.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
We'll get there, Since it takes the average
person a real they're so oldyou've got to beat them on the
bar to make Listen, since ittakes the average person a very
long time to go through theirspices.
I believe that Many containerswith spices wind up sitting on
shelves for years.
That's a fact, yep, well, thatcan actually be problematic.

(01:56):
In a pair of Facebook posts,the company explains how to tell
if your spices are too old,like way too old.
Thankfully, it's not very hardto figure it out.
The fastest way to see if yourspices are too old is if they
are in a rectangular tin.
You know, do you remember those?
It's the metal little rectanglelike the pepper like the pepper

(02:19):
yeah, or if they were packagedin baltimore.
So I guess you need to look andsee if there's a Baltimore stamp
or something on there.
If either of those things arethe case for you,
congratulations.
Your spices have been aroundfor over a quarter of a century.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Yeah, no.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
And I believe that we could probably check some
cabinets in people's houses andyou'd probably find that oh yeah
.
There's one way back there,don't you figure?

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, I don't have any in the boxes or the tins,
whatever.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
If you happen to own one of the older spice
containers, don't worry.
The seasoning won't make yousick, but it's probably in your
best interest to not use themanymore, since they aren't going
to be effective.
When spices age, they tend tolose their flavor, so adding old
spices to your dishes is prettypointless.
Mccormick's recommendation isto make sure your spices have a

(03:09):
strong aroma and taste, as wellas a vibrant color.
It's also good practice toreplace them every three years.
How about we replace them whenthe date code goes out?
How about that?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
I never look at the date code.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
But what I was going to say is you're right, there is
not the mccormick brand, I knowthat, but there's.
There's some that you will haveto slap them and hit them
around to get them loose enoughto get anything out I just used
one did you really?

Speaker 2 (03:37):
did some garlic salt.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
I put a little garlic salt on those vegetables I
cooked earlier yeah, garlic salt, and if you didn't have any
flavor when you're using earlier, yeah, garlic salt.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
And if you didn't have any flavor when you're
using garlic salt, not garlicpowder, garlic salt.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Yeah, what's the difference?
Surely it wouldn't lose itsflavor, would it?

Speaker 2 (03:54):
I didn't taste it, but sometimes I can't taste
stuff anyway, so I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Well, welcome back folks to this, that and other.
I'm Jody.

Speaker 2 (04:05):

Oh my goodness, I thought I did.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
I would have liked this, ain't it sorry, it'd been
pretty neat yeah, so it has abig like.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
It's like a whole glass thing.
I think this might be on thehotel or something on the front.
Um, yeah, and then it has uhfootball be on the hotel or
something On the front, yeah,and then it has football players
on the front.
It's cool, it was huge.
I really thought I took apicture of that.
But I took so many pictures,it's crazy.
But I guess I didn't take thatone.

(06:19):
I kept saying I was going toand then I thought I did.
Let me make sure I didn't.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
So did y'all do anything besides your conference
?

Speaker 2 (06:30):
No, that's all we did .

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Really.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
We walked to some restaurant.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Like a block or two.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
No, like 10 or 15.
30 minutes away, that's not fun.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
No it 10 or 15, 30 minutes away.
That's not fun.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
No, it wasn't fun when we were told oh it's just
around the, it's just a block ortwo.
30 minutes later we finally getthere, so we Ubered back.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
So this was your first Uber.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
My first.
Well, that technically was mysecond.
We had to Uber from the airportto the hotel.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
So how's Ubering?
You like Ubering?

Speaker 2 (07:11):
It was okay.
We got good people.
But one of the girls that camefrom the airport she said her
Uber must have been in a weirdmood because they sure was
vaping it up and had the sadmusic going on.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Can they vape?

Speaker 2 (07:31):
I guess they can, because they must.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
I thought there was rules.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
I would think so, but she said he was vaping it up.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
I thought they were pretty strict on like no food.
No, Maybe it's specific foreach driver.
I don't know how it works,works.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
I have no clue how it works, but I don't know, do you
?
Is it worth that?

Speaker 1 (07:52):
they all had nice cars though yeah, with the
videos I've seen, I don't thinkI've seen a junker yet yeah,
like they were all nice carsyeah so that's your own car,
right yeah, so you definitelyhave to have something that's
got to get decent gas mileage ifthat's going to be your job
right but it was 46 for the onefrom the airport to the hotel

(08:19):
and we were about 20 minutesaway.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
And then it was six dollars yesterday when we went
to that little place to eat toget back total or per person
total six dollars uh-huh and howlong a drive was that?

Speaker 1 (08:37):
five minutes yeah if you were busy all the time.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
It would be like if I was dropping you off and had
somebody within a few blocks topick them up at about the same
time and go, so you get the Uberapp and it shows you who's
closest to you and you just putyour name in there, pay them and
you can follow them.
You follow them right to you ohwell, how about that?

Speaker 1 (09:04):
It was kind of cool.
That is neat.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
follow them right to you.
Oh Well, how about?

Speaker 1 (09:06):
that it was kind of cool.
That is neat.
I wondered how that worked.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
I'll never use it, I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
But that is neat.
You can go with me next year.

Speaker 2 (09:33):

Honolulu.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
And.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Jody can go with me, but can't.

Speaker 2 (10:06):

Puerto Rico, yeah, no, that'snot right.

Speaker 1 (10:12):

plus earn extra money forsomebody else to go with you.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Hmm, that'd be nice.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
For what?
Three days, four days, fivedays, three or?

Speaker 2 (10:50):
four, I can't remember how many, but it was
fun.
We got lots of product.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
I think if I had a free trip like that, I would
figure out a way to get off work.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah, you will If I earn it.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Got a 19-year-old now , that can take care of it if it
falls on a Thursday, Friday.

So if I can earn it and earnthat extra person, so how was
the flying?
The flying was fine.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
What do you like better taking off or landing or
what do you like worse?

Speaker 2 (11:25):
Landing, landing.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
Landing.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
That was the worst thing ever.
One time I thought I was goingto jerk my head off.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Did it rain?

Speaker 2 (11:34):
I mean your whole trip or anything like that.
So y'all didn't have any rainup there.
Just a little bit.
Oh, you mean flying, or youmean when we were in Indiana?
It was hot there.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Was it.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Yeah, when we flew there we had it.
It was raining in Atlanta, butby the time we got to
Indianapolis it wasn't rainingit was hot.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
How long was the flight?
An hour and a half.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Not quite an hour and a half, Not quite an hour and a
half.
But then my flight back.
When I got to Atlanta, my otherplane was already boarding.
I was scared to death.
I was going to miss that flightA little nervous, huh.
I was a whole lot nervous.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
What do you do if you miss your flight?

Speaker 2 (12:19):
You just go tell them you missed your flight and they
put you on the next one.
They can get you on.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
But you lose that money.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
No, okay, I found that out.
Made me feel a little bitbetter.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
I thought you lost that money.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
No, it made me feel a little bit better.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
I know how they overbook some of these flights.
Yeah, and that's another thingLike you bought, you get booted
off the plane, but you've got aseat Because they they're just
expecting people not to show up.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
Yeah, that ain't right.
I mean I understand that too,but then you're you're messing
up the passenger, your customer.
They don't care about us.
It's like the government.
I mean, it was cheaper for meto fly than it was to drive, pay
gas and pay for the parking perday would probably take you
what?

Speaker 1 (13:01):
10 hours.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
It said 8 hours 20 minutes is what it said.
So, you're talking 9.
It would take what?
At least 9 and a half hours,probably because you got to stop
.

Oh man, but you get in some of these cities and it's
, it's all nfl right they don'tcare nothing about college and
then you get down the south.

sell football nails.

outside the front door out twoor three times a day because the
way the wind blows them in andit's always windy out here it
just collects right here at thefront door what'd you do while I
was gone?

(19:50):
I didn't do nothing by normal,just I mean.
But the water's up.
The water has come up.
This time of year, the watercontinuously goes down and it's
come up probably I don't know afoot and a half.
It's all the way back.
It was way down off the wall.
Now it's on the wall.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Oh yeah, it was way down.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yeah, I mean the walkway, it's floating.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
Hummingbirds that are hanging and eating.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
They're having to fight yellow jackets.
We have yellow jackets that aregetting the juice off the
hummingbird feeder.
So if I was a hummingbird Iwouldn't like to be right beside
a.
You think a yellow jacket couldsting and kill a hummingbird.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Or does the hummingbird jab it with its beak
?

Speaker 1 (20:35):
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
I don't know.
They're little, so I don't knowwhat a yellow jacket would do.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
I still say you know, the praying mantis can take out
a hummingbird, which I neverwould have thought that I know.
So I don't know about a yellowjacket.
Now I'm starting to thinkanything can take out a
hummingbird.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
They might be the weak link.
The weak link.

Speaker 1 (20:55):
Yeah, they can't defend herself.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
apparently they're the winklings I don't know what
else we got going on I don'tknow.
What did you do while I wasgone?
I didn't do nothing.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
I just did my normal Football yesterday.
You didn't do football Barelywatched Auburn win.
Barely watched Georgia winShocker.

Speaker 2 (21:18):

thought I did hit it, it's kindof like a fantasy football thing
.

Wednesday before.

Speaker 2 (21:49):

Speaker 1 (24:14):
I've gotten to where I'm listening to Dale Earnhardt
Jr's podcast.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
Oh, so you got one.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
Yeah, it's pretty good.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
Somebody this weekend quoted from Dale Earnhardt Jr.
They put a quote up there onour screen because our thing was
driven and of course we were inIndy, so they put a quote from
Dale Earnhardt.
Now I don't remember what itwas.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
My memory is horrible , junior or senior.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
Junior.
I think it was junior.
Pretty sure it was junior.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
I'm not into motivational quotes and stuff
like that.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
You need to be.

Speaker 1 (24:51):
Why.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Because it's nice, it's good.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
It's like a motivational speaker.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
We had a good speaker Talking about all these
millennials and the different,the way you talk to them and
stuff.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
You had to talk to them different.
Is that what they're meaning?
Yeah, it's crazy.
Yeah, Well, everybody's sosensitive nowadays.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
Well, and she actually put studies up and
numbers and graphics and it wasamazing.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
Yeah, I don't know what's happening.
We've gotten soft as a society.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
It's like she took this example of a cupcake in a
box and more.
Whatever, what's the newgeneration?
Is that millennials?

Speaker 1 (25:41):
I guess what's generation X, z?
I don't know, anyway, what am I?
Anyway, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
Millennials is the new one?
Yeah, I think.
Maybe, I don't know X, z Idon't know.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Anyway, what am I?
Anyway, I don't know.
Millennials is the new one.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Yeah, I think, maybe I don't know, just go with it.
Anyway, they want the cupcake,care nothing about the
presentation in the pretty box,they just want that cupcake.
They could care less about howit's presented and to where.
The older people like how it'spresented.
You know, like the look of itand the way something's

(26:11):
presented.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
That's just what they said.
Yeah, that's just kind of anexample they gave or did they
have stats to.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Yeah, they had all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
Really yeah.
Do you believe that though?

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah, they could care less about how you give it to
them.
They just want what's in thebox.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
I thought you were it to them.
They just want what's in thebox.
I thought you're gonna saythey'd open the box and see how
empty it is, and they'd wantmore.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
That's the way I see it with millennials not enough.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
I don't want one cupcake I want two.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
Oh, all right, what you got for us.
What are we gonna talk about?

Speaker 1 (26:42):

supposed to.

It's glues and adhesives.
I know that's what we'retalking about.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Yes, was invented by a dentist who?

Speaker 1 (31:49):
was inspired by the incredibly strong UV cured
bonding compounds he used on thejob.
He teamed up with a chemicalengineer and together they
developed an ingenious liquidplastic welding compound that's
50 times stronger than glue.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
That they now glue your teeth in with.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
You apply the liquid formula to the damaged area,
shine the special UV light on itand it hardens into rock solid,
clear plastic in four seconds.
You can use it to bond, fix,build, rebuild and even fill
virtually anything.
Once hardened, you can stand,you can sand, shape and even

(32:24):
paint it.
Let's see what they love aboutit.
It's fast, bionic hardens infour seconds with UV light.
It's ridiculously strong anddesigned to last a lifetime.
It works on virtually anythingplastic, metal, wood, glass,
ceramics and more.
And guess what?
It says it's sold out.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
