Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
The regular recommended daily dose of funny is just not enough.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Thankfully we have extra funny what Tej and Riggins. There
are times when we are in a break of the
show where meaning that we're not broadcasting to the peoples,
it's just us being able to hear and see each other,

(00:26):
and Riggins seems like a crazy, homeless person speaking to
the voices in his head. Because his dog will be
down on the floor, we can't see the dog, and
the microphones that we use, or what you call directional,
meaning they don't pick up a lot of background noise,

(00:47):
and so all of a sudden, Riggins will just be
sitting quietly and then he'll go, would you shut up?
We can't see or hear anything or anybody else in
the room with him, so it just makes it seem
like he's he's a crazy person yelling at the clouds.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
But I also think it's funny because I used to
talk to my dogs like that, like they heard, like
they knew what I was saying. But I don't have
dogs anymore, and I haven't done it in a long time.
So when you said it, I'm thinking, he doesn't know
what you're saying.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Oh, you know, he knows, and he's like, he knows
how to push my buttons.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
It's crazy, like you knows when you say shut up,
that that's what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
Well, use a nicer term, then. No, he's so sweet.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Oh, I love him. I would take a bullet for him.
But every once in a while, like you love your kids,
every once in a while, you gotta correct the action.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
You don't tell him to shut up?

Speaker 3 (01:44):
I do?

Speaker 4 (01:45):
You don't.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
No, how about shut your damn mouth. That's what I
used to tell our kids all the time.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
No you didn't, you shut your damn I might not
say to a kid, but I'll definitely say it to
to a a you know, obnoxious dogs sometimes Yeah, yeah,
dogs ain't got no feelings.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
Yeah he's fine. M Well it hurts my feelings because
he's so fluffy and cute.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Well, what was he doing that you had to tell
him to shut up?

Speaker 3 (02:14):
He does this thing before he lays down, like he's
about to do it right now, Do you mind? He
like scratches at the carpet and before and like does
circles before he lays down.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
Yeah, he's making a bed for himself. I guess so.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
But he's got a thousand dollars worth of dog beds
around the house. I don't need you making one in
the carpet.

Speaker 4 (02:33):
They do that.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
I bought you the Heavenly bed from the Western Hotel,
Go lay in that. It was four hundred dollars. I
don't need you like scratching up my carpet so you
can lay down.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
They are stupid dogs, gosh stupid.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
I don't know. I don't know if he's I don't
think he's stupid, but he.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
He's saying you're I think you're the stupid one for
about a four hundred dollars bed.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
No doubt about it. I have made many, many, many
stakes as a dog owner, including spending way too much money.
But uh, that's what the vet told me.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
But I mean, you know, you think about it. We
you know, we love our dogs, you know, absolutely love them.
But we spend so much time and energy and money
on something that can't even talk. Yeah, and they they

(03:27):
they lick their assad.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Mine doesn't look his ass, But I get what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
He doesn't. Maybe he can't reach it.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, he probably can't reach it. But I've never seen him.
But that's what the vet said. I said, I've given
him the world. Why does he give me all these problems?
They said, well, that's your problem. You gave him the
world and you want him to act in kind. And
that's not the case. Dogs don't do that.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
No, they're they're they're dogs. Yeah, they don't know how
much a heavenly bed costs exactly. So yeah, how about
Linn calling you stupid?

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Listen, that's like no, I was just saying, he's thinking
that you.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
Are instead of him.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Lindsay calling me stupid is like, you know, it's water
off a duck's back.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
It's one person, one stupid person to another.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Lindsay calls herself stupid far more than she calls me stupid,
especially this week.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
And I'm not listen, you spending four hundred dollars on
a dog bed? Do you know how much stupid? How
many stupid things I bought my dogs?

Speaker 4 (04:41):
Know, you have no clue, but twenty thousand dollars worth?

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Okay, But you'd like medical procedures and all. That's a
different category than just buying them expensive beds and toys
and peanut butter bubbles and and you know that that
sort of thing. Or if you buy us a plane

(05:08):
ticket for them in first class. Yeah, you know, so
they their crate can sit right next to you in
first class. That's to be Or you don't want to
put them on a commercial flight, so you charter a
plane right.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
Never had the money to do that.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Mm hmm, yeah, I mean there was. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, absolutely,
because it's fun. It's fun buying new things for your
dog or your kids. I get why people do it,
but eventually you got to draw the line and you
come back to reality. Eventually.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
I think, no, no, because now I do it for
my kids. Yeah, no, yeah, but it's different. I think maybe, no,
I don't know it is.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
It is because I mean, your kids wouldn't eat the
garbage if it's spilled.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Over, and they do say thank you the dogs.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
But yeah, I just think it's funny. He shut up
with you, shut up, shut up.

Speaker 4 (06:12):
Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
I took him to the Greenway yesterday where we like
to walk after the show, and he just decided he
wasn't into that. He he likes going to new places,
so if I take him to the same place over
and over, he just sits down. He's like, I don't
feel like walking here. So then when I got to
get back in the car drive to a different area
of town. So he's like more excited about I mean
the lengths you go to to make this thing happy,

(06:34):
the things I do to make him happy. I mean,
it's all day with him, all day. Yeah, pay me
the favor of shutting up every once in a while,
so needy, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
You need to get one of those walking pad things. Yeah, yeah,
right him on that like Caesar does totally. You know,
Caesar will put a dog on a treadmill and a heartbeat.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Yeah, yeah, especially when it's cold.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
What do you think of those people who use those
peapads and stuff instead of teaching their dog to go outside?

Speaker 3 (07:15):
That's not good.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
So when I first got I guess it was Teddy
and my first dog, someone mentioned buying pea pads because
he was so little, and I was like, I can't
do that because one day when he gets big or bigger.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
You know. So I never did that, but I know
people that do with tiny dogs.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeah, and they live in high rises and stuff, Like
you used to live in readions and you'd have to
take that dog all the way down from the thirteenth
floor or wherever you were.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
They even told me they were like, don't use peapads
because that just teaches them that it's okay to pee inside.
And I was like, actually, that makes a lot of sense.
So yeah, every twenty minutes or whatever. When I first
got him, I was taking him down thirteen floors.

Speaker 4 (07:58):
It's a good workout. Though.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
It was a good workout, but I wasn't about to
start cleaning up his pee all the time because.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
They don't know the difference between only an emergency and not.
You know, there's a lot of people say that, well,
it's only for emergencies. What do you mean emergencies because
you didn't come home from the bar in time. Yeah,
that was that kind of thing. That was July.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
Yeah, I remember waking up at all hours of the
night too to take them out going downstairs.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
I was in apartments, I mean just.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Uh yeah, and I know one apartment you lived in?
One in that grade of a neighborhood.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
Yes, a couple, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah, that's what you get with little dogs too, right,
aren't the little dogs? Don't they have to go.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Out more, especially when you're potty training. It took me,
I mean, it took me a long time to well,
and when they grew up and their bladders got a
little bit bigger.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, my dog, it was a big golden dude, and
he could go twelve hours really mm hmm yep. He
weighed over one hundred pounds though he's big.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
Could go maybe two and a half hours.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
And then of course we would you know, if we
knew we were going to be gone for a few days,
we'd just put a catheter in him.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
I can't even hear that word without cringing.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
Yeah, let him drain out a little bit while you're away.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
I think people with cats, though, they can leave them
for days and get those automatic those feeders on a
timer and all that, but you know, when they get
home that house thinks.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
I think so.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
To me, that is the biggest advantage of getting a
cat over a dog is that you can take you
pick up. Yeah, you can leave them, and you just
cannot do that with a dog.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
And you definitely can't do that with a dog and
a cat in the same house because the dog will
eat the cat. Oh god, you'll only have one left
when you get in from vacation.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Oh yeah, that's what I'm saying. You don't want that?
