Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, killing An, Hello, it's tomorrow show Today. Tomorrow will
be the twenty second of October Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Does that means something? Is there something happening on ten
twenty two?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Usually when I see the date, and I do that
intentionally at the beginning of the podcast, because usually that
rings a bell if I have something to do. I
know today I have something to do, Sally and I.
Sally says we're going to go vote early today. You're
doing that, That's what she says, says, we're doing it today.
I don't, you know.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
In my and I'm a huge fan of this idea
of voting early because, like we talked about, you know,
if that hurricane hit.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Next week, and thankfully Oscar now is not going to
be the impact. It's going back out into the ocean
according to the meteorologists, So the hurricane's not coming the
one that everybody was fearful was going to be the
triple down.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Yeah, but if we got a major storm, you might
not have power on November second, that's right, and then
I don't know what they did, what you're going to do,
or if you are in some sort of a medical
situation where you can't vote for whatever reason, if you're
available to go vote early, do it. And I I also, well,
(01:10):
I won't get into that other part of it. We'll
save that for the political pot.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
The first time she and I voted early was four
years ago.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Oh really, I don't know did I vote. I did
vote early, I remember, I want to say in the primaries.
I remember voting early because it was I had to
go downtown basically, was that like Taylor Street or something
like that, Hampton, Hampton, and it was like across the
street from like where the court buildings are and stuff. Yeah,
(01:39):
it was a very small building.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
It was, Oh, there's two locations there, you're right, there's
one inside the administrative building and another one across the street.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I had to go to the one across the street,
and there was you know, but it was a great
because there was no line.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, Richland County Administrative Building on Hampton Stry.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
I think the whole I think I had two people
in front of me, and so the whole process probably
took you know, from parking and they had people helping
you park and all that sort of stuff. So the
whole thing probably took me grand total of fifteen minutes. Max.
I'm thinking I might be wrong about this, that there's
a lot of people who want to go today.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
So that's what I'm thinking, Maybe today will be the
best day to vote early because you look at Georgia
and North Carolina a big day on opening.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Day now was theirs on a Monday as well. I
forgot my day because they did. I know Georgia. I
haven't looked at North Carolina stats. Georgia got three hundred
thousand votes the first day. They got a million by
the end of the week, so I think that's five
days of voting, so three hundred thousand would be probably
the biggest day. But also you know, over those other
(02:45):
four days to get seven hundred thousand, you were pretty
close to this three hundred thousand per day, right total,
So I don't know if it's going to wane a
whole lot. Now for Georgia, they get a grand total
of about five million voters, five and a half million
something like that for the last election, the last presidential election,
which is really more about like voter turnout twenty twenty
(03:07):
two is not if you don't have a president on
the ballot, it's tough to get the same type of
voter turnout. So in twenty twenty. I it would have
to be. I haven't looked at the numbers, but I
remember Donald Trump had with seventy seven million votes, would
have been the most popular candidate in political history with
(03:28):
seventy seven million votes. But then Joe Biden got eighty
one million, So that has to have been the biggest
voter turnout in the history of America. I don't know
that we're going to see that. I would Okay, when
somebody says I don't know, it means that they doubt.
I doubt that we're actually going to get anywhere near
that number. I just feel like the voter interest is
(03:50):
a lot less right now than it was in twenty twenty.
Not for you and I. We live in a political world,
so we got people rap exactly, but I think that
for a lot of people though, like it's not even
a race Kamala is going to lose. There's nothing that
really drives the ticket. I mean maybe down ballot there's
(04:10):
some stuff that people are very interested in. Maybe you
got a a senator or somebody on your ticket, But yeah,
for us here in South Carolina, I think most the
voter interest seems pretty low right now.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Now. The reason I bring that up is because before
if you're going to vote early, before or if you
wait till the election today you actually show up to vote,
you should go to sc votes dot org and go
to your county, put in your name. It'll bring up
a sample ballot for you so you can actually read
some of the more and some of the equally important
(04:43):
things that would be for your community. Because there are
ballot questions on there. You want to have an opportunity
to read research and then answer you don't want to
get there and then yell out I must pud to
vote on number two, which is what Sally do us?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Now, Jonathan, will you provide voters right now, like maybe
as a blog poster or something the right answers that
would be helpful?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
That would be you mean, like when I printed off
the six for all the members of my family here
in Richland County ahead and I went ahead check the
boxes for them.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
So just do what that says and just walk here.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I don't do that.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Maybe people should text you.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Oh you can always text me. I'll give you my opinion.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Who should I vote for? Jonathan?
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Everybody's got my mobile dome.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Here's the nine votes that you should make or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Just still tell the poll workers you're asking johnmen.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
But he doesn't know like Lexington County Judge ships and those.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
No, no, no, no, you got to ask somebody. You gotta find.
I got one person I'll tell you. I'll openly tell
you this. This is what I do. And we got
one person on my block who is very plugged into
the school board. I got any questions about school board
candidates in Georgia.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Oh it's okay, I was, I said. I got a
guy in Richland One named George.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
George sends me literally and I'm even exaggerating about this.
They have board meetings, I think every two weeks. He
sends me a recap of every meeting. What happened, who
said what? He is very detailed.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Well, I know that she shows up with some of
the board meetings. I'm not sure if she writes a
review over them. But she can tell me anything I
want to know about the candidates for the board school boards.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I don't even live in Richland One. George just wants
me to know what's going on there at you.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Hey, George, if you're listening, thanks because we need to
make sure that when you get there you were educated
and know how to cast your ballot. Otherwise you're just
going to walk in and throw a dart. Don't walk
in and throw a dart.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
You know it's too important, exactly, And an informed and
educated populace is what is what the foundation of this
country is built upon.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
If you don't leave it blank speaking of the foundation
of the vote for everything listed on the ballot.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
True, you don't want to wipe out a good vote
with your ignorant exactly. But I do want to wipe
out ignorant votes with my votes.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Yes, I understand that perspective.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I need to go and get a pronunciation for this
word for what you're talking about. We're talking about the
foundation of the country here a second ago. What you're
talking about. If you haven't heard it, we've been playing
it now for about three weeks. Every weekday morning six thirty.
We give you a word, maybe a phrase, maybe a
word we don't use anymore, maybe a word. Well, in
(07:31):
this instance, I guess we would have used it. I
guess you know what this is funny now that I'm
saying I need a pronunciation guide on this one. I
guess it's because of mispronunciation that we have the word
that we have today. Okay, So if you want tickets
to Megan Moroney, Credit One Stadium, Daniel Island, Charleston, Friday,
(07:52):
September twelfth. The answer for what you're talking about, ah,
I'm going to give it a shot. Popacon popecon.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
How do you spell that?
Speaker 2 (08:04):
P o h p u k u n. I'm pronouncing
it for the time being as popacon.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Sounds like an Indian tribe.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
You are correct. What is that word? Remember? Remember the
old See, we all know that mays means corn. The
only reason we know that is because there was a
Missola commercial that ran for about a decade. Your people
call it corn. My people called it maize, and that's
(08:36):
how we learned about mazola and so on and so forth.
So this is the word that well, I might be
giving it away. When the Pilgrims landed, there was a
tribe of Indians, the wampan Oggs. The wampan Ogs are
the ones who kept the pilgrims alive. They weren't gonna
make it, they were all They were doomed to death
(08:59):
because they had no idea what they were doing, and
they they couldn't figure out how to eat they couldn't
figure out how to catch anything.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Landed too too late into the fall season winters, you're
going to starve to death.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
The womp and Ogg's kept them alive with food and
other necessities. One of those foods the popacon.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
You got me.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
And again, I think it evolved from that because the
Pilgrims couldn't say that it's pumpkin, pumpkin yo, the popacan
is now known as the pumpkin. I see that now, Yes,
so I get I don't know if there's any members. Well,
I guess you know. I did look it up. The
Wampanoggu tribe is trying to bring their language back and
(09:51):
they're they're they're launching it up in the Massachusetts area,
and they were talking about how for generations the language
has been lost even to the natives that tribe, and
so they're giving us some of the words here like
popekan h maccus, which became moccasins, soucock became skunk. And
(10:15):
then the actual state was called massachuse mass I can't
say it massachu suit Massachusetts or something like that is
what they called Massachusetts. And so I think what happened
was the Pilgrims couldn't pronounce it the way the Indians did,
and they just kind of got as close as they could.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
We just americanized it.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
We weren't even Americans yet. No, we englishized it. Did
they say it with an English accent? That's interesting to
think about. Did the Pilgrims have an English accent? Wow? Well,
popekin is pumpkin And that is the answer to win
your Megan Maroney concert tickets tomorrow morning about six point thirty.
(10:57):
The other thing that we're going to be talking about
sometimes you make a comment which is a reference point
that younger people don't get, and there's I guess this
is now hitting what we would call the millennials. So
the millennials have now reached the age where gen Z
doesn't know what the hell they're talking about, and they
(11:19):
suddenly feel old because they reference something like this. And
so that was put up on Reddit or whatever, and
all these millennials were referencing things that they had referenced
and gen Z so, for example, when her younger coworker
came in wearing a pink sweater on a Wednesday, I
responded with, on Wednesdays, we wear pink. She looked very
(11:43):
confused and said, is that like a dress code thing?
And I explained, no, that's from the movie Mean Girls.
Oh yeah, and she said, oh, I've never seen that.
My mom likes to reference me that stuff, right, My
mom references Mean Girls. By the way, photo that I
used for this blog post it is Tina Fay and
(12:04):
Lindsey Lohan the premiere, which was on April twenty third,
two thousand and four. So now Mean Girls officially more
than twenty years old.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
So yes, if you're twenty years old, it's a good
shot you never saw Mean Girls. Or if you're maybe
even thirty, you might not have seen it. Your parents
might not let you go see it in the movie theaters.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Yeah. We don't rely on politics a whole lot, but
there was a political thing recently that happened. We're at
the Al Smith dinner. Kamala sent in a video instead
of being there in person, and it had a Saturday
Night Live skit character only it.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I forget her name, but she likes to Mary Catherine. Yeah,
she sniffs her under arms by putting her hands under there.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yeah. And one of my boys is David, said, what
was the thing with the cheerleader. I said, yeah, that's
from a Saturday Night Live skit.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
He was like, oh, okay, old people get it.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Yeah, old people get it.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Here's one where she said a few months ago, my
eleven year old niece started singing a song and dancing,
and I said, do you think you're the next Madonna?
And she said, who's Madonna?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Muh huh, yeah, who's Madonna? Famous fleeting my friend who's Madonna?
Who's Madonna?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
This woman said, I'm thirty one years old. I was
driving in the car with my younger sister, who's twenty four.
A Kelly Rowland's song came on and I was saying
how much I loved her in Destiny's Child. My sister
looks at me with a straight face and says, Destiny
who never heard of Destiny's Child? Never heard?
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah, there are so few artists that can span that.
Elvis is one. Now most people most people know who
Elvis is.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, they might not know his music. They know maybe
they would know the Beatles, but they wouldn't necessarily know
Paul McCartney.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Remember, McCartney was going to go see who was the
rap star performing in New York and he wanted to
go in and the bouncer wouldn't let him in. Oh
I don't know. One of McCartney's security guards said that's
Paul McCartney and they said, he.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Said, yeah, exactly, who's that Paul? But if you say
one of the Beatles, I don't know because i'm, you know,
in my late fifties now, so to me, Beatles Paul
McCartney at all. But the weight of saying that's one
of the Beatles, right, that is, Oh my god, that
is like the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. Those are
(14:34):
the two for me that I I mean, or maybe
a beach Boy maybe possibly, but Smith, No, Aerosmith doesn't
get it because to me, I was already alive and
I was a child when Aerosmith came on the scene,
so I remember them being a new band.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Oh here's one of them. The other day, we're going
down the street and there was a door with a
on it and I said that God die and I said, no,
that's just a that's just a decorative wreath, okay, And
Sally's like, what are you talking about? What Sally said that?
(15:13):
She said, what are you talking about? I said, well,
I remember it more so from George Jones' song he
stopped loving Her today them actually remembering when they used
to put wreaths on the doors of persons who passed away,
and that was something they did back in the day.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Sure, here's something that I can totally say this. This
must have been an older person who writes this. I
tried to buy some gift cards at Starbucks with our
using a company check. The girl behind the counter was
completely dumbfounded and said, how am I supposed to cast this?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
I love it?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
And I was explaining to her it's a check, you
deposit it, and she never could understand it. So she
ended up saying, I don't think we're allowed to take this.
So she ended up paying with a credit card from
the company. But never heard of a check.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Never heard of it.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
What the hell are you doing? You're just writing a
piece of You're writing a figure like what do I
do with that? That's is this like an IOU?
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I think it's I think it's Lee, who actually said
one of his visits a couple of months ago, Hey,
do you remember if I ever had a check book
for this account? I said, I'm sure you had a
chat book, because they give you like five checks when
you open your check and account. He said, yeah, I've
(16:36):
got to write a check, and I don't have one.
So we went and scrounged around inside some places where
I keep financial papers, and we found it, and I said,
here's your chet book. So he took it with him.
I said, you'll probably never need that again, but here
you go.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
I write a check every Sunday for my tithe, but
other than that I may have paid for like some
lawn service or something with a check.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
I have written one recently because my car had stopped working.
What I had to pay something and I hadn't going
to get a new card. Wow, So I wrote a
check forgot what it was now. But it's weird writing
one now because literally you go for months without ever
needing they think about it.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
I wish grocery stores would put out a sign no
checks accepted here, or this is the check's only line.
If you get in this line, you've got to pay
with a check. So you know that every customer is
going to take ten minutes. Because when you get up
there and all of a sudden they plan, well, the
you a game, I mean, get who do I make
it out to? And blah blah blah, and then they
(17:41):
run that little thing in the thing. I don't even
know what that thing's doing, but they run it in
and then they run it out, and then they run
it in and then they run it out. And it's like, lady, yeah,
then I got to get my manager over here to
sign it or whatever. And it's like, I'm just trying
to live my life. I just wanted to buy these
two things, and I got you. That's why I do
(18:04):
love the self checkouts. Big fan of self checkout.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
I have become more accustomed even in publics now because
the lines are so long. When they actually have a cashier,
I'll forget it. I just go through the self checkout
because you know me, I like talking to the cashiers.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
And I don't think I've in months have bought more
than ten items. I'm usually like a three or four
item guy. It's like Angela will say, hey, we need tomatoes,
eggs and whatever else she's making. I don't know what
she's king, but I'll just run to the store because
it's five minutes from my house, run in, get my
four little things. I'll look at the suckers standing in line, loosers,
(18:42):
and I go out to bed. I just pay for
everything in the self checkout, and I'm mountain a second.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I was talking to a woman yesterday who was insulted,
and the first time this happened because she went to
publics on a Wednesday and got the senior citizen discount,
and it just so happened. I think she had gone
to one of those facial places, okay, right before she
to Publics. So she comes out of there thinking how
young she looks, and she goes to public so she's
I think she's like fifty two, and they give her
(19:08):
the senior citizen discounts and.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
She gets sensed by.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
It, and then she's walking out of the store thinking
what did I just do? I just left like ten
bucks back here. Oh so, because I'm like two hundred
dollars forth the groceries. So now when she goes in
on Wednesday, she says, do I get the senior citizen discount?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
They said, of course, of course, look at you, stick
a look at you. You need a discount, lady. That's horrible.
So I'm looking up senior citizen discounts. I didn't realize
I could be eligible for senior citizens. They start fifty five.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Fifty five, okay, she's fifty two.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
My god, man, that's what you get if you go.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
To a public's and on Wednesday is slammed because the
people who were organized enough to shop once a week
or in, they're getting two buggies full. And then it
takes forever to get in and out of there because
they're all going through the back out to make sure
they get the senior citizen discount.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
And they break it down. I guess that says Arby's
and McDonald's. Holy are you serious? Right now? Beginning at
age fifty five, McDonald's and Arby's offers senior citizen discounts
for fifty five year olds.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
What I actually started to complain, but I didn't.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I have seen Trump and got myself a discount exactly.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
I think the ownership of the Dunkin Donuts that I
go to changed ownership recently, but prior to the change
over the ownership, I got the senior citizen discount. Yes,
switch on a cup of coffees only like Nicholson, right,
you know whatever, But I don't get it anymore.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
They took it away from me.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Took it away. I pay the full till three dollars
and seven cents for a cup of coffee. Why I
don't know. I didn't ask.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Just tell him I want three even, I'll pay three even.
I'll meet you in the middle. I'm a senior citizen,
but I'm not gonna lost.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Down of the senior citizen discount because I would go
ahead and have exact change because I hate going there
and handling them a card for a cup of coffee.
That seems stupid. So when I give I don't want
to give them a twenty because you know they're going
to give you the twenty without the change back because
they go, we're running short on chain. So you end
up paying, you know, three dollars and seventy five cents
(21:23):
for a cup of.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Coffee Best Western. If you're fifty five and older, you
get a discount on your room Caesar's Palace. If you're
fifty or older, you get up to thirty percent off
room rates at Caesar's that's in and Caesar's hotels and
resorts in twelve different states. The OMNI anybody fifty five
(21:44):
and older is eligible choose your senior rates. I got
to start clicking senior rates and seeing if I'm eligible.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Sally usually sets up our hotel. She always gets the
triple A.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Yeah, I have a triple A discount.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
So she always asks for that. But I'm not sure
she gets a senior discount on top of it. But
the hotels we typically stay at.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Our large chains, I'm going to ask for all of them. Yeah,
I mean, how about like a bald headed discount? How
many discounts do I get? What are the availability of discounts?
I've been crippled by my lack of.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Hair military No, no, I never served. Are you over fifty? Yeah, okay,
there's one. You have a triple A.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Yeah, just start stacking them, stack them up. That's right. Wow,
Well that this this has been a very informative and
possibly money making.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
So we've education how to maximize your discounts. We have
learned a phrase, a definition of a word that we
have bastardized from the Native Americans, ruined it, and then
celebrate it with our new name.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Yeah. So now when we go in, uh, next time
you're at your favorite coffee place, asking for your big
discount if you're older fifty five? Yeah, well yeah, I
want to get the what is it again? The popacan spice.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Popacan spice lattes probably a surch charge for.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That, and you got the popacn spice. We were talking
about that. We didn't ever get to that one, but
there's a pumpkin what they call the pumpkin spice tax.
We talked about that. I don't think we put it
on the podcast, but off air we were referenced, like Acharge,
they that they somebody crunched the numbers and they were
showing that there's a price increase of something like eleven
(23:34):
percent for things with pumpkin spice.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
I mean you get the muffins, Yeah, with a pumpkin spice,
it's more expensive than just the regular blueberry or chocolate.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Yeah, and people are willing to pay that pumpkin spice
search charge. I guess during the do they pay it
in November or is this I mean, this is pumpkin
spice right this is this is the time to make
They got to make hay right now. If you're a
pumpkin spice manufacturer, October your month, September, a little bit,
maybe a little bit in November. I think by December
(24:05):
we're moving on. We're now into like peppermint, and.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
We're almost in Christmas flavors.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Yeah, Christmas flavors.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
You get the eggnog just in time, you know, for
the Thanksgiving specials.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
But October is prime pumpings, and where it's October twenty first,
you can't get any more pumpkin spicey than right now.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
So pay the extra and be happy, enjoy it, don't complain.
Just make sure you get to sing your discount if available,
takes the sting out of the pumpkin spice tax.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Maybe that'll be a question tomorrow as well. Would you
rather pay full price or have them recognize you as old?
She was very upset, I mean, especially give it out
of the spot. I mean, I just paid all this
money to look you and and I am under fifty five,
(24:55):
and you still thought I was sick.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
You made a big deal out of it, and that
the cashier was. Look, we just no, no, no, no, we're
not judging anybody here. We just give you if you
if you're a shopper of that age group, we just
give it to you. We don't ask you for identification,
and they don't.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
So I'm in that age.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
How do you know if they think if the casher
thinks this is probably someone who is in that bracket,
we'll put it that way. That demo demographic bracket, because.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
You're not thinking the hotty behind me's in that bracket.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
And the she's, and then the and then even the
bag boy got in it. We're not trying to judge
whether you look young or old. I mean, they were
both getting very apologetic when the manager walked up.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I'm not trying to judge. You are trying to judge
if I look young or old. You're trying to judge
if I'm over fifty.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
And the manager said, look, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.
The senior discount begins at fifty five if you don't.
Mommy asking how old are you, she said, I'm only
fifty two, and he said, okay, we can arrange for
that to just take the senior citizen discount off. They
took it off.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
Well, at this point, you've insulted me to the point
where you should double it.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
She felt bad. She felt good, yeah, and then she
felt bad again. I just left money on the table.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Well, the fact that I had to argue with you
about the fact that I don't look fifty five, I
was very confused. She left ten dollars on the table,
but she also spent probably several hundred at a spat
trying to look forty five.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
So now she gladly says, I'm going on Wednesday because
of Senior Citizen Day.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
And I would cancel that spa. It's apparently not doing
anything that's great.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
All right, Hey, what's happening in your neighborhood? Are you
looking like David Caruso? We might get, oh my gosh,
what is happening to our favorite celebrities?
Speaker 2 (26:44):
They just google David Caruso and the first photo that
pops up is him. I can't even believe that's David Carey.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I don't believe it. I think David Caruso died, he's
I think they replaced him with this guy.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I think somebody ate David Caruso, and David Caruso is
kind of got some of like the facial properties of
the guy who ate him and is trying to push
his way out. I don't know this. DAK can't be
David Caruso, but they claim that it is him in
the gas station.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
We might deal with that too. You tell us what
you're thinking. Along with reading the tweet by jelly.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Roll, conspiracy theories are running him.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Up because Janey, she's gonna get me a full report
by tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
When he tweeted on Friday that he was going to
expose the music industry, and I was excited. I mean,
I was in the music industry. I know that there's
pretty dirty, shady things happening in the music industry, but
I wouldn't know at the level that he's claimed. He
alluded to as an artist, and he was going to
expose it all. And then today he announces I'm deleting
(27:48):
my Twitter account.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Why why? And it's not because you think it's the
Wow Wild West with the comments about your weight.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Yeah, that's what he Well he didn't say the weight,
but he did say it's people say I mean stuff here.
His wife said it was the reference no consequences. So
I'm out, y'all, y'all, I'm out. And I don't think
he's going to delete the tweeter account. I think that
the implication is that he personally will not be on it.
Then it'll be staff people. Yeah, just you know, posting
(28:15):
a new Jelly Roll single here today, or.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
You just added to the conspiracy. Brother.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I wanted to know what he was going to expose exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Well, Jane's into the dark Internet with all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
She's on the dark Web.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
She's not on the dark Web, but she's on the
CD side of wilfing Oh. We'll see what she says
about that. She'll be our dark side reporter.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Yeah, let us know, Jane.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Okay, now you let us know what you're thinking on
social media. You know how to reach out to us
if you're still on Next or which platform you prefer,
And if you don't want to do that, then you
can always email us directly and we will not use
your name if you'd like to say, don't use my name,
but yeah, all caps at the top, don't use my name.
We'll protect you. Ninety seven eight. We put as much
(29:03):
as we can, and if.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
You pay us a little exture, will use somebody else's
name that you don't like.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
That's great. I'm liking this. That's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
You can even pay us with a check because we
know what those are.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Yes, we know how to get those cash. They know
three nine seven eight nine two six seven nine seven
eight w COS tomorrow in the morning. Wash
Hello, killing An, Hello, it's tomorrow show Today. Tomorrow will
be the twenty second of October Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Does that means something? Is there something happening on ten
twenty two?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Usually when I see the date, and I do that
intentionally at the beginning of the podcast, because usually that
rings a bell if I have something to do. I
know today I have something to do, Sally and I.
Sally says we're going to go vote early today. You're
doing that, That's what she says, says, we're doing it today.
I don't, you know.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
In my and I'm a huge fan of this idea
of voting early because, like we talked about, you know,
if that hurricane hit.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Next week, and thankfully Oscar now is not going to
be the impact. It's going back out into the ocean
according to the meteorologists, So the hurricane's not coming the
one that everybody was fearful was going to be the
triple down.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Yeah, but if we got a major storm, you might
not have power on November second, that's right, and then
I don't know what they did, what you're going to do,
or if you are in some sort of a medical
situation where you can't vote for whatever reason, if you're
available to go vote early, do it. And I I also, well,
(01:10):
I won't get into that other part of it. We'll
save that for the political pot.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
The first time she and I voted early was four
years ago.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Oh really, I don't know did I vote. I did
vote early, I remember, I want to say in the primaries.
I remember voting early because it was I had to
go downtown basically, was that like Taylor Street or something
like that, Hampton, Hampton, and it was like across the
street from like where the court buildings are and stuff. Yeah,
(01:39):
it was a very small building.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
It was, Oh, there's two locations there, you're right, there's
one inside the administrative building and another one across the street.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I had to go to the one across the street,
and there was you know, but it was a great
because there was no line.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, Richland County Administrative Building on Hampton Stry.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
I think the whole I think I had two people
in front of me, and so the whole process probably
took you know, from parking and they had people helping
you park and all that sort of stuff. So the
whole thing probably took me grand total of fifteen minutes. Max.
I'm thinking I might be wrong about this, that there's
a lot of people who want to go today.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
So that's what I'm thinking, Maybe today will be the
best day to vote early because you look at Georgia
and North Carolina a big day on opening.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Day now was theirs on a Monday as well. I
forgot my day because they did. I know Georgia. I
haven't looked at North Carolina stats. Georgia got three hundred
thousand votes the first day. They got a million by
the end of the week, so I think that's five
days of voting, so three hundred thousand would be probably
the biggest day. But also you know, over those other
(02:45):
four days to get seven hundred thousand, you were pretty
close to this three hundred thousand per day, right total,
So I don't know if it's going to wane a
whole lot. Now for Georgia, they get a grand total
of about five million voters, five and a half million
something like that for the last election, the last presidential election,
which is really more about like voter turnout twenty twenty
(03:07):
two is not if you don't have a president on
the ballot, it's tough to get the same type of
voter turnout. So in twenty twenty. I it would have
to be. I haven't looked at the numbers, but I
remember Donald Trump had with seventy seven million votes, would
have been the most popular candidate in political history with
(03:28):
seventy seven million votes. But then Joe Biden got eighty
one million, So that has to have been the biggest
voter turnout in the history of America. I don't know
that we're going to see that. I would Okay, when
somebody says I don't know, it means that they doubt.
I doubt that we're actually going to get anywhere near
that number. I just feel like the voter interest is
(03:50):
a lot less right now than it was in twenty twenty.
Not for you and I. We live in a political world,
so we got people rap exactly, but I think that
for a lot of people though, like it's not even
a race Kamala is going to lose. There's nothing that
really drives the ticket. I mean maybe down ballot there's
(04:10):
some stuff that people are very interested in. Maybe you
got a a senator or somebody on your ticket, But yeah,
for us here in South Carolina, I think most the
voter interest seems pretty low right now.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Now. The reason I bring that up is because before
if you're going to vote early, before or if you
wait till the election today you actually show up to vote,
you should go to sc votes dot org and go
to your county, put in your name. It'll bring up
a sample ballot for you so you can actually read
some of the more and some of the equally important
(04:43):
things that would be for your community. Because there are
ballot questions on there. You want to have an opportunity
to read research and then answer you don't want to
get there and then yell out I must pud to
vote on number two, which is what Sally do us?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Now, Jonathan, will you provide voters right now, like maybe
as a blog poster or something the right answers that
would be helpful?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
That would be you mean, like when I printed off
the six for all the members of my family here
in Richland County ahead and I went ahead check the
boxes for them.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
So just do what that says and just walk here.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I don't do that.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Maybe people should text you.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Oh you can always text me. I'll give you my opinion.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Who should I vote for? Jonathan?
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Everybody's got my mobile dome.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Here's the nine votes that you should make or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Just still tell the poll workers you're asking johnmen.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
But he doesn't know like Lexington County Judge ships and those.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
No, no, no, no, you got to ask somebody. You gotta find.
I got one person I'll tell you. I'll openly tell
you this. This is what I do. And we got
one person on my block who is very plugged into
the school board. I got any questions about school board
candidates in Georgia.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Oh it's okay, I was, I said. I got a
guy in Richland One named George.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
George sends me literally and I'm even exaggerating about this.
They have board meetings, I think every two weeks. He
sends me a recap of every meeting. What happened, who
said what? He is very detailed.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Well, I know that she shows up with some of
the board meetings. I'm not sure if she writes a
review over them. But she can tell me anything I
want to know about the candidates for the board school boards.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I don't even live in Richland One. George just wants
me to know what's going on there at you.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Hey, George, if you're listening, thanks because we need to
make sure that when you get there you were educated
and know how to cast your ballot. Otherwise you're just
going to walk in and throw a dart. Don't walk
in and throw a dart.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
You know it's too important, exactly, And an informed and
educated populace is what is what the foundation of this
country is built upon.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
If you don't leave it blank speaking of the foundation
of the vote for everything listed on the ballot.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
True, you don't want to wipe out a good vote
with your ignorant exactly. But I do want to wipe
out ignorant votes with my votes.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Yes, I understand that perspective.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
I need to go and get a pronunciation for this
word for what you're talking about. We're talking about the
foundation of the country here a second ago. What you're
talking about. If you haven't heard it, we've been playing
it now for about three weeks. Every weekday morning six thirty.
We give you a word, maybe a phrase, maybe a
word we don't use anymore, maybe a word. Well, in
(07:31):
this instance, I guess we would have used it. I
guess you know what this is funny now that I'm
saying I need a pronunciation guide on this one. I
guess it's because of mispronunciation that we have the word
that we have today. Okay, So if you want tickets
to Megan Moroney, Credit One Stadium, Daniel Island, Charleston, Friday,
(07:52):
September twelfth. The answer for what you're talking about, ah,
I'm going to give it a shot. Popacon popecon.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
How do you spell that?
Speaker 2 (08:04):
P o h p u k u n. I'm pronouncing
it for the time being as popacon.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Sounds like an Indian tribe.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
You are correct. What is that word? Remember? Remember the
old See, we all know that mays means corn. The
only reason we know that is because there was a
Missola commercial that ran for about a decade. Your people
call it corn. My people called it maize, and that's
(08:36):
how we learned about mazola and so on and so forth.
So this is the word that well, I might be
giving it away. When the Pilgrims landed, there was a
tribe of Indians, the wampan Oggs. The wampan Ogs are
the ones who kept the pilgrims alive. They weren't gonna
make it, they were all They were doomed to death
(08:59):
because they had no idea what they were doing, and
they they couldn't figure out how to eat they couldn't
figure out how to catch anything.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Landed too too late into the fall season winters, you're
going to starve to death.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
The womp and Ogg's kept them alive with food and
other necessities. One of those foods the popacon.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
You got me.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
And again, I think it evolved from that because the
Pilgrims couldn't say that it's pumpkin, pumpkin yo, the popacan
is now known as the pumpkin. I see that now, Yes,
so I get I don't know if there's any members. Well,
I guess you know. I did look it up. The
Wampanoggu tribe is trying to bring their language back and
(09:51):
they're they're they're launching it up in the Massachusetts area,
and they were talking about how for generations the language
has been lost even to the natives that tribe, and
so they're giving us some of the words here like
popekan h maccus, which became moccasins, soucock became skunk. And
(10:15):
then the actual state was called massachuse mass I can't
say it massachu suit Massachusetts or something like that is
what they called Massachusetts. And so I think what happened
was the Pilgrims couldn't pronounce it the way the Indians did,
and they just kind of got as close as they could.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
We just americanized it.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
We weren't even Americans yet. No, we englishized it. Did
they say it with an English accent? That's interesting to
think about. Did the Pilgrims have an English accent? Wow? Well,
popekin is pumpkin And that is the answer to win
your Megan Maroney concert tickets tomorrow morning about six point thirty.
(10:57):
The other thing that we're going to be talking about
sometimes you make a comment which is a reference point
that younger people don't get, and there's I guess this
is now hitting what we would call the millennials. So
the millennials have now reached the age where gen Z
doesn't know what the hell they're talking about, and they
(11:19):
suddenly feel old because they reference something like this. And
so that was put up on Reddit or whatever, and
all these millennials were referencing things that they had referenced
and gen Z so, for example, when her younger coworker
came in wearing a pink sweater on a Wednesday, I
responded with, on Wednesdays, we wear pink. She looked very
(11:43):
confused and said, is that like a dress code thing?
And I explained, no, that's from the movie Mean Girls.
Oh yeah, and she said, oh, I've never seen that.
My mom likes to reference me that stuff, right, My
mom references Mean Girls. By the way, photo that I
used for this blog post it is Tina Fay and
(12:04):
Lindsey Lohan the premiere, which was on April twenty third,
two thousand and four. So now Mean Girls officially more
than twenty years old.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
So yes, if you're twenty years old, it's a good
shot you never saw Mean Girls. Or if you're maybe
even thirty, you might not have seen it. Your parents
might not let you go see it in the movie theaters.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Yeah. We don't rely on politics a whole lot, but
there was a political thing recently that happened. We're at
the Al Smith dinner. Kamala sent in a video instead
of being there in person, and it had a Saturday
Night Live skit character only it.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I forget her name, but she likes to Mary Catherine. Yeah,
she sniffs her under arms by putting her hands under there.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yeah. And one of my boys is David, said, what
was the thing with the cheerleader. I said, yeah, that's
from a Saturday Night Live skit.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
He was like, oh, okay, old people get it.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Yeah, old people get it.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Here's one where she said a few months ago, my
eleven year old niece started singing a song and dancing,
and I said, do you think you're the next Madonna?
And she said, who's Madonna?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Muh huh, yeah, who's Madonna? Famous fleeting my friend who's Madonna?
Who's Madonna?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
This woman said, I'm thirty one years old. I was
driving in the car with my younger sister, who's twenty four.
A Kelly Rowland's song came on and I was saying
how much I loved her in Destiny's Child. My sister
looks at me with a straight face and says, Destiny
who never heard of Destiny's Child? Never heard?
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah, there are so few artists that can span that.
Elvis is one. Now most people most people know who
Elvis is.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, they might not know his music. They know maybe
they would know the Beatles, but they wouldn't necessarily know
Paul McCartney.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Remember, McCartney was going to go see who was the
rap star performing in New York and he wanted to
go in and the bouncer wouldn't let him in. Oh
I don't know. One of McCartney's security guards said that's
Paul McCartney and they said, he.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Said, yeah, exactly, who's that Paul? But if you say
one of the Beatles, I don't know because i'm, you know,
in my late fifties now, so to me, Beatles Paul
McCartney at all. But the weight of saying that's one
of the Beatles, right, that is, Oh my god, that
is like the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. Those are
(14:34):
the two for me that I I mean, or maybe
a beach Boy maybe possibly, but Smith, No, Aerosmith doesn't
get it because to me, I was already alive and
I was a child when Aerosmith came on the scene,
so I remember them being a new band.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Oh here's one of them. The other day, we're going
down the street and there was a door with a
on it and I said that God die and I said, no,
that's just a that's just a decorative wreath, okay, And
Sally's like, what are you talking about? What Sally said that?
(15:13):
She said, what are you talking about? I said, well,
I remember it more so from George Jones' song he
stopped loving Her today them actually remembering when they used
to put wreaths on the doors of persons who passed away,
and that was something they did back in the day.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Sure, here's something that I can totally say this. This
must have been an older person who writes this. I
tried to buy some gift cards at Starbucks with our
using a company check. The girl behind the counter was
completely dumbfounded and said, how am I supposed to cast this?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
I love it?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
And I was explaining to her it's a check, you
deposit it, and she never could understand it. So she
ended up saying, I don't think we're allowed to take this.
So she ended up paying with a credit card from
the company. But never heard of a check.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Never heard of it.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
What the hell are you doing? You're just writing a
piece of You're writing a figure like what do I
do with that? That's is this like an IOU?
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I think it's I think it's Lee, who actually said
one of his visits a couple of months ago, Hey,
do you remember if I ever had a check book
for this account? I said, I'm sure you had a
chat book, because they give you like five checks when
you open your check and account. He said, yeah, I've
(16:36):
got to write a check, and I don't have one.
So we went and scrounged around inside some places where
I keep financial papers, and we found it, and I said,
here's your chet book. So he took it with him.
I said, you'll probably never need that again, but here
you go.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
I write a check every Sunday for my tithe, but
other than that I may have paid for like some
lawn service or something with a check.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
I have written one recently because my car had stopped working.
What I had to pay something and I hadn't going
to get a new card. Wow, So I wrote a
check forgot what it was now. But it's weird writing
one now because literally you go for months without ever
needing they think about it.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
I wish grocery stores would put out a sign no
checks accepted here, or this is the check's only line.
If you get in this line, you've got to pay
with a check. So you know that every customer is
going to take ten minutes. Because when you get up
there and all of a sudden they plan, well, the
you a game, I mean, get who do I make
it out to? And blah blah blah, and then they
(17:41):
run that little thing in the thing. I don't even
know what that thing's doing, but they run it in
and then they run it out, and then they run
it in and then they run it out. And it's like, lady, yeah,
then I got to get my manager over here to
sign it or whatever. And it's like, I'm just trying
to live my life. I just wanted to buy these
two things, and I got you. That's why I do
(18:04):
love the self checkouts. Big fan of self checkout.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
I have become more accustomed even in publics now because
the lines are so long. When they actually have a cashier,
I'll forget it. I just go through the self checkout
because you know me, I like talking to the cashiers.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
And I don't think I've in months have bought more
than ten items. I'm usually like a three or four
item guy. It's like Angela will say, hey, we need tomatoes,
eggs and whatever else she's making. I don't know what
she's king, but I'll just run to the store because
it's five minutes from my house, run in, get my
four little things. I'll look at the suckers standing in line, loosers,
(18:42):
and I go out to bed. I just pay for
everything in the self checkout, and I'm mountain a second.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I was talking to a woman yesterday who was insulted,
and the first time this happened because she went to
publics on a Wednesday and got the senior citizen discount,
and it just so happened. I think she had gone
to one of those facial places, okay, right before she
to Publics. So she comes out of there thinking how
young she looks, and she goes to public so she's
I think she's like fifty two, and they give her
(19:08):
the senior citizen discounts and.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
She gets sensed by.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
It, and then she's walking out of the store thinking
what did I just do? I just left like ten
bucks back here. Oh so, because I'm like two hundred
dollars forth the groceries. So now when she goes in
on Wednesday, she says, do I get the senior citizen discount?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
They said, of course, of course, look at you, stick
a look at you. You need a discount, lady. That's horrible.
So I'm looking up senior citizen discounts. I didn't realize
I could be eligible for senior citizens. They start fifty five.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Fifty five, okay, she's fifty two.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
My god, man, that's what you get if you go.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
To a public's and on Wednesday is slammed because the
people who were organized enough to shop once a week
or in, they're getting two buggies full. And then it
takes forever to get in and out of there because
they're all going through the back out to make sure
they get the senior citizen discount.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
And they break it down. I guess that says Arby's
and McDonald's. Holy are you serious? Right now? Beginning at
age fifty five, McDonald's and Arby's offers senior citizen discounts
for fifty five year olds.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
What I actually started to complain, but I didn't.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I have seen Trump and got myself a discount exactly.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
I think the ownership of the Dunkin Donuts that I
go to changed ownership recently, but prior to the change
over the ownership, I got the senior citizen discount. Yes,
switch on a cup of coffees only like Nicholson, right,
you know whatever, But I don't get it anymore.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
They took it away from me.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Took it away. I pay the full till three dollars
and seven cents for a cup of coffee. Why I
don't know. I didn't ask.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Just tell him I want three even, I'll pay three even.
I'll meet you in the middle. I'm a senior citizen,
but I'm not gonna lost.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Down of the senior citizen discount because I would go
ahead and have exact change because I hate going there
and handling them a card for a cup of coffee.
That seems stupid. So when I give I don't want
to give them a twenty because you know they're going
to give you the twenty without the change back because
they go, we're running short on chain. So you end
up paying, you know, three dollars and seventy five cents
(21:23):
for a cup of.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Coffee Best Western. If you're fifty five and older, you
get a discount on your room Caesar's Palace. If you're
fifty or older, you get up to thirty percent off
room rates at Caesar's that's in and Caesar's hotels and
resorts in twelve different states. The OMNI anybody fifty five
(21:44):
and older is eligible choose your senior rates. I got
to start clicking senior rates and seeing if I'm eligible.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Sally usually sets up our hotel. She always gets the
triple A.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Yeah, I have a triple A discount.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
So she always asks for that. But I'm not sure
she gets a senior discount on top of it. But
the hotels we typically stay at.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Our large chains, I'm going to ask for all of them. Yeah,
I mean, how about like a bald headed discount? How
many discounts do I get? What are the availability of discounts?
I've been crippled by my lack of.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Hair military No, no, I never served. Are you over fifty? Yeah, okay,
there's one. You have a triple A.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Yeah, just start stacking them, stack them up. That's right. Wow,
Well that this this has been a very informative and
possibly money making.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
So we've education how to maximize your discounts. We have
learned a phrase, a definition of a word that we
have bastardized from the Native Americans, ruined it, and then
celebrate it with our new name.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Yeah. So now when we go in, uh, next time
you're at your favorite coffee place, asking for your big
discount if you're older fifty five? Yeah, well yeah, I
want to get the what is it again? The popacan spice.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Popacan spice lattes probably a surch charge for.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That, and you got the popacn spice. We were talking
about that. We didn't ever get to that one, but
there's a pumpkin what they call the pumpkin spice tax.
We talked about that. I don't think we put it
on the podcast, but off air we were referenced, like Acharge,
they that they somebody crunched the numbers and they were
showing that there's a price increase of something like eleven
(23:34):
percent for things with pumpkin spice.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
I mean you get the muffins, Yeah, with a pumpkin spice,
it's more expensive than just the regular blueberry or chocolate.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Yeah, and people are willing to pay that pumpkin spice
search charge. I guess during the do they pay it
in November or is this I mean, this is pumpkin
spice right this is this is the time to make
They got to make hay right now. If you're a
pumpkin spice manufacturer, October your month, September, a little bit,
maybe a little bit in November. I think by December
(24:05):
we're moving on. We're now into like peppermint, and.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
We're almost in Christmas flavors.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Yeah, Christmas flavors.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
You get the eggnog just in time, you know, for
the Thanksgiving specials.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
But October is prime pumpings, and where it's October twenty first,
you can't get any more pumpkin spicey than right now.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
So pay the extra and be happy, enjoy it, don't complain.
Just make sure you get to sing your discount if available,
takes the sting out of the pumpkin spice tax.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Maybe that'll be a question tomorrow as well. Would you
rather pay full price or have them recognize you as old?
She was very upset, I mean, especially give it out
of the spot. I mean, I just paid all this
money to look you and and I am under fifty five,
(24:55):
and you still thought I was sick.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
You made a big deal out of it, and that
the cashier was. Look, we just no, no, no, no, we're
not judging anybody here. We just give you if you
if you're a shopper of that age group, we just
give it to you. We don't ask you for identification,
and they don't.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
So I'm in that age.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
How do you know if they think if the casher
thinks this is probably someone who is in that bracket,
we'll put it that way. That demo demographic bracket, because.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
You're not thinking the hotty behind me's in that bracket.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
And the she's, and then the and then even the
bag boy got in it. We're not trying to judge
whether you look young or old. I mean, they were
both getting very apologetic when the manager walked up.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I'm not trying to judge. You are trying to judge
if I look young or old. You're trying to judge
if I'm over fifty.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
And the manager said, look, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.
The senior discount begins at fifty five if you don't.
Mommy asking how old are you, she said, I'm only
fifty two, and he said, okay, we can arrange for
that to just take the senior citizen discount off. They
took it off.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
Well, at this point, you've insulted me to the point
where you should double it.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
She felt bad. She felt good, yeah, and then she
felt bad again. I just left money on the table.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Well, the fact that I had to argue with you
about the fact that I don't look fifty five, I
was very confused. She left ten dollars on the table,
but she also spent probably several hundred at a spat
trying to look forty five.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
So now she gladly says, I'm going on Wednesday because
of Senior Citizen Day.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
And I would cancel that spa. It's apparently not doing
anything that's great.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
All right, Hey, what's happening in your neighborhood? Are you
looking like David Caruso? We might get, oh my gosh,
what is happening to our favorite celebrities?
Speaker 2 (26:44):
They just google David Caruso and the first photo that
pops up is him. I can't even believe that's David Carey.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I don't believe it. I think David Caruso died, he's
I think they replaced him with this guy.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I think somebody ate David Caruso, and David Caruso is
kind of got some of like the facial properties of
the guy who ate him and is trying to push
his way out. I don't know this. DAK can't be
David Caruso, but they claim that it is him in
the gas station.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
We might deal with that too. You tell us what
you're thinking. Along with reading the tweet by jelly.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Roll, conspiracy theories are running him.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Up because Janey, she's gonna get me a full report
by tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
When he tweeted on Friday that he was going to
expose the music industry, and I was excited. I mean,
I was in the music industry. I know that there's
pretty dirty, shady things happening in the music industry, but
I wouldn't know at the level that he's claimed. He
alluded to as an artist, and he was going to
expose it all. And then today he announces I'm deleting
(27:48):
my Twitter account.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Why why? And it's not because you think it's the
Wow Wild West with the comments about your weight.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Yeah, that's what he Well he didn't say the weight,
but he did say it's people say I mean stuff here.
His wife said it was the reference no consequences. So
I'm out, y'all, y'all, I'm out. And I don't think
he's going to delete the tweeter account. I think that
the implication is that he personally will not be on it.
Then it'll be staff people. Yeah, just you know, posting
(28:15):
a new Jelly Roll single here today, or.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
You just added to the conspiracy. Brother.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I wanted to know what he was going to expose exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Well, Jane's into the dark Internet with all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
She's on the dark Web.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
She's not on the dark Web, but she's on the
CD side of wilfing Oh. We'll see what she says
about that. She'll be our dark side reporter.
