Speaker 1 (00:00):
Time for stacks and hacks. I have stacks of information.
Rich has life hacks. But before I get into the information,
something from yesterday that I like to highlight. I love it.
Do you use? I absolutely use chipity. I love churchip.
I love it.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Chichipuity is frankly fantastic.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
I love the Apple is selling a new accessory called
the iPhone Pocket. Have you seen this? Yes, it's so
expensive and it like, it's so lame. It's basically a
knitted case for your iPhone with a strap that can
be warned, kind of like a sock. People are calling
it the Apple sock. I think I like two dollars, Yeah,
two hundred and thirty dollars. That's insane, so insane, Rich, Oh.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
My god, we should all bring in a sock and
make our own.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
A seventeen year old drove into a golf course of
Florida and did donuts, causing one hundred and sixty thousand
dollars in damage. The kid confessed that he did it
because he was bored. That's sad. According to a new study,
shouting at seagulls does make them more likely to leave.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Your food alone, So it's got aggresive over the last
few years. Man, they're relentless.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Now Elon Musk is this close to becoming a trillionaire.
You see that the first trillionaire. This is one of
my favorite things to do is they put together a
list of if he's a trillionaire, what can he buy everything?
The guy from the Dodgers, that pitcher Shehan O'tani. Yeah,
you could pay him. You could pay four hundred and

(01:31):
twenty eight of those. Oh my gosh, every single car
in the United States. You could buy this year. You
could buy ten thousand Starbucks CEOs. The current boss makes
a hundred million a year. You could have a hot
thousand Starbucks CEOs. You could buy three hundred and thirty
three sky skyscrapers, like the new JP Morgan Chase building

(01:52):
in Park Avenue was built for three billion. He could
buy three thousand, three hundred those. You could have two
thousand of Jeff yachts.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Wasn't that like a like a three hundred million dollar
yacht or something like that. So I just don't get
who like needs that kind of money. Like I understand
wanting to like roll in your wealth, but like that's
an insane.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Amount you could give every single person in the United
States two nwenty three dollars.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
That's more.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
I thought it would be more. You could buy Switzerland.
You could buy every house in Hawaii, all of them.
You could buy Coca Cola plus a twelve pack of
Coca Cola every for everybody on Earth. You could buy Toyota, Volkswagen, Hyundai, Ford, GM, which,
Fiat and Chrysler, all of them, all of them. You

(02:38):
could buy Exxon Mobil, Chevron, and Conoco Phillips. If you're
Elon Musk and.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Aren't we like that's that's a trillion dollars which you
can't even think of an Arn't we like thirty five
trillion dollars in debt in this country? Oops, it's a
lot of money. We get a lot of credit card debt.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
I guess some people have a magical gift for being
able to perfect or perfectly pronounce people's names, like Aaron Aron.
It's that people say it wrong, so they ended a
pulling this and most people think they're above average. It's
saying people's names, and then they put together list of
names that we say wrong, or it's it's difficult to pronounce, like.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
L O U I S Louis.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Some people say Louis. Some people say, Louis, how do
you distinguish whether it's a person. I guess Rory. They
say it should just be Rory, but idiots in Boston
ruin it by calling it ry Ri. I like that, though,
I like a little. You think there's one pronounce, one
way to pronounce seth, but there's not. Because what if
you have a lisp?

Speaker 2 (03:38):
What do you got for life? Average, Well, you know,
the government's back open, but there's still like the ways,
there's still things going on. So if you find yourself
stuck at an airport today watching that departure time slide
further and further away, well here we go. This is
a good trick. In fact, I almost don't want to
say this on the air. I almost just want to

(03:58):
tell you guys, But since your list thing and you're
a friend, we're gonna tell you. Look for the minutes
that your flight is delayed. Check this out. If it's
delayed for more than one hundred and twenty minutes, go
right up to the desk and you can ask for
a meal voucher. Airlines almost never announced this, but most
carriers will give you anywhere from twelve to twenty five

(04:18):
dollars in food credit if the delay crosses the two
hour mark. That's happened to me before. So anything over twenty,
I mean it's still you know, you're still gonna pay
eighteen dollars for a crappy airport sandwich, but you know,
at least you can get somebody else to pay for it.
So if it's over one hundred and twenty minutes, go
ask for a food voucher. Most of the airlines will
give you something like that. I don't know if we
knew that, but they do now that life hacking be
