Speaker 1 (00:02):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
Firm show. Oh looky here the fifteen minute Morning show podcast.
It's uh Froggy and there's Danielle. There's Scotty B and
Master Control. They're Scarry and Master Control, Junr. There's Gandhi?

(00:27):
Uh in Detroit? Right? Are you in Detroit? No, I'm
in in the city. I'm wipe down the street from
Scary just not coming in. You're straight and Nate in
the city. He came in, And there's Garrett in his kitchen,
and there's Brody in the den, and here I am
in my whatever the this is? Talk about how Gandhi's
just skating by, She's just conveniently down the street. Okay,

(00:49):
let's talk about that now. You brought this up. You
brought this up earlier. Scary. How there are people in
your mind anyway you feel are taking advantage of make
and clearly there are people out there that are milking
the pandemic. Now I'm not saying it's safe for everybody
to go work. Everyone has a different location and different

(01:11):
you know, like format of where they need to be
with the amount of people. But there are some people
that I know of that are just hanging out at
home and just saying like, I'm gonna stay here as
long as humanly possible, and Scotty agrees with me. Obviously.
I think when this show decides to return, I think
that would be maybe Danielle in our show, who would

(01:33):
try and be like, I want to stay home as
long as she gets to wave her kids off to school.
Maybe ye, Look, why then would you like? I? Honestly,
I love being home, but I do miss it. I
would like a balance of both worlds. Yeah, I'll working
in any business that they're in because they can sleep later.

(01:56):
They're saving so much money on transportation no matter how
they get to work, gas or public transportation. Why would
they want to go back? Well, I'm telling you right now.
There's two articles I read today. Funny enough, both of
them say one third of the workforce will quit on
the spot if they are if they are forced to

(02:17):
go back into the arm because they love their job now.
And they're saying, if you take this away from me,
then I don't want to I'm calling I'm calling bullshit
on that because people have to go back. They're not
gonna quit kidding me. But make the thing is now,
there are other jobs that you can go find where
they'll let you work from home where they don't want

(02:38):
to The company doesn't want the overhead of a place
and and the the electricity and all the other stuff
that comes along with it. So then the question is
does it think is it come down to safety or
the fact that they could save money on commercial real
estate and they just close the lights. And it's a
lot of it's a lot of things that people have
realized through this whole thing that there are other ways
to get things done that you could be more productive
or just as productive, and you can save money in

(03:01):
the process with things that you didn't realize a us
productive though, if you're at home, yeah, I feel more productive,
to be honest, I know that's different for everybody. Yeah,
but I mean so for me, once I built my
little desk over here, now I have like an actual
space to be focused on things and you know, knocking
out games or creating whatever it is. I feel more

(03:21):
efficient at home because I have an extra hour of
sleep and then as soon as we're off the air,
I can get to whatever it is I need to
get to. Also, because Gandhi, I've never really been productive,
I really wasn't productive when I came in every day.
I'm definitely not productive now. I mean, I do the
show and then I have other things I do. Feel

(03:43):
like in the same boat, I was like anything I
have to say, the day seems a lot longer and
I have more time because I can do my laundry.
I can do this, I can do my grocery and
get it done. And I have to worry about driving
back from the city and driving in. That's a that's
that takes a lot of time. Scary. I know. I
like I'm in Scottie's boat, really because I really do

(04:04):
like coming in and you know, even though I only
see Skery and Scotty, but in working here, I really
like being in the studio to work. But that drive
is what kills me because it's an hour here and
an hour back and you don't get that time. That's
not for you, guys. Your commute is what thirty seconds. Yeah,
it allows me to get a start on the list
of the ship I get asked to do every day,
so when I get my marching orders for the rest

(04:27):
of the day, I can get some of those things
done while when we're in commercials. So I should say
no to those. By the way, I tried, it doesn't
work out well. But why why is it? I live
two floors above where I'm sitting right now, but I'm
late to work once a week. Only you can answer that,
hell are you gonna do? So? The one question we

(04:48):
I've been getting a lot to from family and friends
and listeners is are we do we have a plan?
Like do we even know yet? Or is it still
just we don't have I know we don't have We
never have a plan. We've never had it. I didn't
even know how to spell the word plan either. Were
we planned this fifteen minute morning show when we were

(05:09):
going to talk about right when we started, and we
still haven't talked about. But we said we're gonna talk
about That's where I'm never going skydiving with you guys,
never going skydiving. But if you need a sense of regimen,
routine and structure, I love having structured in my day
where and by the way, when I leave here, I
leave my work here and then I go home and
I have my hometime. You don't take like your pets,

(05:30):
and they don't. They don't like ship where they sleep
and they eat right, they all have they have their
bed place and then they have their other place. I
don't ship where I work either down the hall. Create
an environment for yourself where you do everything in the
same place. That's got to be monotonous. No, not a
one bedroom apartment. The rest of us have bigger problems,

(05:52):
which is not being here. I have my one bedroom
and I love my little powers. I feel like places.
You've lived in seven places and so you get to
move around and scary plan when he gets home is
a nap. Yes, I don't know. I would be so
miserable if I was like, we're pundel in the tower

(06:13):
into a studio and it's fine, it's wonderful. Has to
be a lot of work to go back the way.
It was so scary as original thought was, there are
people who are bullshit artists and they could easily roll
back into work, and they're choosing not to say. You're
saying they're using medical reasons. Well, here's the thing. The
vaccine is taken off and we we're seeing that. You

(06:33):
know the world is opening up a knock on wood,
it's going to be safe. So they can't hide behind
that anymore. Right right now. They will be exposed very soon.
If they haven't already been. My friends and I talk
all the time that they have friends that they work
with that are legitimately out of the country or they're
like from a beach and they're literally on a lounge
chair around a pool at work done. Care as long

(06:58):
as they're getting work done, who cares, right, I'm jealous, jealous, jealous,
that's the truth comes out. Well, I'll tell you you know,
while we're at home, we have more time to get
projects done and things like that. And so like Brodie's
saying things that I find very very peculiar, Like today

(07:20):
he used a rivet drill? Is that what rivet gun?
I'm like, you have no business with something is dangerous
as a rivet gun in your hands, and like, what
did you rivet gun? What do you do? So I
had to put a front license plate on my car
because we got to do that. Well, we bought a
car in Pennsylvania because it was a great deal, but

(07:41):
they don't use front license plate frames. They're not required
by law. So when I drove it home, they said, well,
we'll mail you a frame and when you get your
registration you can put your plates on. So when I
opened it up, to look at how to install it.
Most license plate frames, it's a couple of screws. Nope,
I had a drill holes and then I had to
put rivets in and use a river a gun. I'll
have a Rivet gun. So I called the local dealership

(08:03):
where I didn't buy my car, and I said, hey,
you guys are the same company. Could you guys put
the thing on for me? And they said yeah, for
fifty bucks. I said, I'm not paying fifty dollars for
something that should have been for free. So I went
on Amazon border ribt gun for twelve dollars, got it,
and the next day shipping, I put it on myself.
I want to use a Rivet gun. Oh that's awesome. Wait,
good for thinking of that. You know what we did?

(08:24):
My brother taught me this another little trick like Brody kinda.
So if you want to buy the Peloton, the new
Peloton bike has a screen that swivels, but you pay
a lot more for it. You don't need it. There's
a little contraption on Amazon that my brother told me
about that you buy and you attach it and you
can make a swivel screen yourself, just like the one

(08:45):
on the new Peloton. So my Peloton bike looks like
the brand new, brand new one, but I didn't pay
all that money for it. Did you question, why do
you want a swivel screen on your peloton if you're
doing something off the peloton, Yes, because you can do
like training classes and all kinds of other things off.
Pello was wondering, did you know that people call electricians
to change light bulbs? What we do well we do

(09:06):
in the studios because of the union, people in private
homes that can't change. We had an electrician in the
house because Amy said, you know what, because I was
changing out the smoke detects. I put all the nest
smoke detectors in and just just call it electrician. I'm like, no,
I'm gonnall it electrician much. I'll charge for that. So
I figured out how to do and I changed all
the smoke detectors, and I was nervous because I didn't

(09:28):
shut the electricity off and I got shocked once or
twice voltage that's low voltage. But we had an electrician
in the house for something else, and he said that
people call him all the time to change light bulbs.
And I was flavoring as it would absolutely call an electricians,
you'd call over electronics business. I don't know exactly what happened,

(09:53):
but in where our toilet is, in our master bathroom,
it's just a small room where it's a I mean
it's not. You can barely turn around in there. It's
a it's a toilet, and the toilet paper holder got
knocked off the wall. I don't exactly know how. Nobody
has fessed up to it, but there was a hole
you could almost put your hand in. The hole in
the wall was so big, so I had to what'd
you say? Was it like the TV you tried to

(10:15):
put on the wall? Funny? Um? So then I was
not sure how to patch such a large such a
large hole. I did not know. So I went and
I went online. I went and bought a drywall prepare kit.
I got mud, I did the screening, I did everything.
I painted it and look at this, here's a picture
of it. Look how perfect You cannot tell where the
whole wall? That was good. I and I just I

(10:38):
watched it on YouTube. Now I will say this, the
guy on YouTube made it look really, really simple, And
when I did it, it it was not so simple. I
had to do it twice, but when you watch it
on YouTube, that person has been doing a thousand times.
You haven't. But that's how you learn how to do things.
I'm convinced those people on YouTube that do the how
to videos do a few takes and then they take
the best takes and put them all together. But it
makes it look like, oh, look, I know what I'm doing.

(10:59):
You don't know what you're doing on the first take
like that. So can I give you a bad story
where it didn't work out? Watching YouTube video? So my
wife wanted to change the door knobs of our master
bathroom door, and so there's no screws. So I looked
up if you have hidden screws, there should be a
release button. There's no release buttons, so then it says

(11:20):
if there's no release button, there's a pinhole. So there's
a pinhole that's supposed to be spring loaded and pop open.
It didn't do that. So the worst case scenario if
none of those work is you have to hack saw
the door knob off. You tell a knob off later. Today,
Today's hex all day, Today's hacks all doorknob Day. I
bought a special blade and I'm you really need to

(11:43):
come back to the studio to do with your time.
Scary you want Brody coming back to the studio with
a has in hand. When you tell the guy at
home depot you want a hacksaw and he says, what
are you trying to saw? And I said dead body.
He didn't find that funny. Oh my god. A note

(12:03):
to people. They don't they don't get that. As you're
lucky they didn't call authorities they might have. Yeah, a
rescipe for joking. I don't think that's gonna Oh, there
have been several jokes you've told that definitely need incarcerations.
Can we do a shout out to a couple of
listeners who started a business. They've been listening to us

(12:25):
for years and years. They started a company called Keen
to be Seen and they made these masks when you
could sell your smiles. Oh oh yes, I have one
of those in pink. How great is this? They sent
them for everybody, So I'll send them over to you guys.
If you want your smile looks very strange a little
bit because it's magnify it you want it's plastic, But

(12:49):
it looks like his mouth is somehow bigger than it
normally al j Lewis party teeth for going right, Thank
you Leslie, and everybody came to be seen at the
Score to be seen. And when we go back, if
we go back, this is scary. He's going to have
to wear that. I think. Well, I mean they also

(13:13):
make they also make those for deaf people so they
can read lips. Yeah. I have a friend who is
living with autism, and he said that the mask thing
has been really hard on him because he looks at
people for facial cues to see, you know, how they
feel about something or what's going on. And with everybody's
face blocked, it's been really hard on him to communicate
with people. So that'll be great for him. Yeah, yeah, okay,

(13:35):
all right, scary some lunch it is, be honest, how
many of you will partake with meatball? I'm going to
meta last sight and didn't even know it. You got
me in the mood. I had chopped meat last night.

(13:55):
I made burgers, So I feel like, do I want
that two days in a row. I didn't know it was.
I meant, I know, but I feel like it's it
good to have that kind of me two days in
a row. I don't know. Oh no, you know what.
We're getting a delivery today, Yeah we are. Yeah, so
we're getting yeah, five o'clock this afternoon. Can't wait. I

(14:20):
know we're I'll be standing at the front door waiting
on my delivery. I feel like we have no cohesiveness,
cohesiveness on this this. That's good because we've only got
fifteen seconds left, so that's good. All right, later, guys. Okay,
bye bye awkward, goodbye fifteen minute morning show.
