Speaker 1 (00:12):
Show, Let's have it him. Thanks for checking out Tanner
Drew and Laura's Donkey Show podcast. Oh heard online at

iHeartRadio app or wherever you listen to podcasts. I'm Tanner
Drew's here, Laura's here buster as Marcus is here, and
Court will be joining us in just a second. He

(00:32):
just ran in and then ran out and he said
come right back.

Speaker 4 (00:34):
So he was mumbling and pointing in directions. He's looking
for beef Wor's the beef.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
So yeah, we'll talk to him in a few minutes.
Uh yeah, I was thinking about my the weight loss thing.
You know, at least this has been a good challenge
between me and beef Waughter so far, because you know,
the first week I was ahead, the second week he
was ahead. Now this week I'm ahead again.

Speaker 4 (00:56):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
So it's like, get I feel like it's a neck
and neck. It's gonna be those you guys, It's gonna be.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
It's going to be very close.

Speaker 4 (01:03):
Plus surely sent a message saying that some of beef
Water's weight gain might be from the fact that he
flew yesterday.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah, so we were on the live show talking about
beef Water. He had to go to Disneyland for some
wark stuff. But while he was there, he had some
free time and he just walked around the park. He
did cheat a couple of times, but not too bad.
He said. He had he had two what.

Speaker 4 (01:22):
He had, a deep Fright sandwichst too, dull whip.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
What is a dol It's like ice cream, It's delicious pineapple.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Well, I have some of the best ice cream in Disneyland, Marcus.

Speaker 4 (01:34):
It's horrible for you.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
It's so good.

Speaker 6 (01:35):
Like dole Whip was one They had it at one
place in my childhood county and people would flock to it.
It was wild and they would have like only a
couple flavors a week and they would always change out.
But the strawberry and the pineapple are to die for.
It's like this sorbet kind of icy stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
It's so good in Disneyland.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
So nice. The only time I've had it was in
Hawaii and I drank it out of a pineapple.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Oh wow, it's pretty awesome.

Speaker 6 (02:02):
And so good.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Yeah, so I understand why.

Speaker 6 (02:07):
Sorry, when I go to Hawaii, I literally get like
pits and sores in my mouth because I drink so
much stuff out of my half.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Yeah, and beef Water also had a since he was working,
he had a food allowance, so that makes it even tougher.
Like it's one thing to cut oaks my own wallet
out of my pocket, but when it's like, spend it.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Yeah, here's some money.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Joy.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
What am I supposed to do?

Speaker 2 (02:28):
Right?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
So I get while he cheated, I would have done
the same thing in Disneyland. I can't go there and
not have a chio win in Rome. I mean, she's Louise.
So he put on two extra pounds. But surely from
G three Fitness did send us a text saying that
it's it's more than likely water weight. It'll probably bounce down,
you know, bounce back by the end of the month. Uh.
She also said nutrition is king, then movement and focused

(02:51):
hydration will get your stem your assistant back on track.
She was telling beef Water, I focus on ie protein
and just veggies for this last couple of weeks.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
Yeah, trying to keep that bread out the mouth.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
But she's really great because she'll send you know, me
and beefought her group messages together and then she'll like
text me directly and him directly, So she's coaching both
of us, but she's not really rooting for either one
to win because you know.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
She's ground over here.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
She just wants you to supposed to be healthy.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
She's the coach.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
So that's surely from G three Fitness in Beaverton. And
like the other day, she just sent me, you know,
like after the show today, after the way and she
just sent me a text that said, well done, Tanner,
good job.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Nice see. Yeah, And that's the type of accountability motivation
you need throughout this process.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
And I think she'd be perfect for anybody who's looking
for that too, Like you just need that person who's
going to push you to be your best, and she
seems to be able to do that without making you
feel overwhelmed.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
And I think and she's good.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
If you've ever had a personal trainer, they're not always
the most involved, Like yeah, they'll show you the exercises
and they'll tell you what to do, and they'll they'll
cheer you on when you're there. But it's so cool
to have somebody who you feel like is really in
your corner and really wants you to succeed as much
as you want to succeed.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Yeah. Yeah, we all know how I went with my
last personal trainer, So yeah, not great.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Well let's not do that.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
It was fine for a little bit.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
As long as you don't take Shirley out to dinner.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
We'll be Yeah, she's a married woman, so.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
Well, yeah, the point is.

Speaker 6 (04:18):
Right, Yes, wondertander, do you have any like strategy as
the end rolls in?

Speaker 5 (04:24):
Like, are you.

Speaker 6 (04:25):
Gonna sauna for the last week or something? You got
you gotta have a trick up to.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Probably should because bee Floughter's been doing that.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
I think you got to remember though, he's not being
judged on weight. This isn't a wrestling way, and this
is a body fat situation.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
What I've been doing is I've been doing lots of
cardio and lifting weights. So I've got this this, you know, Jim,
the same one that Drew got from Costco, and I've
just been doing that. I you know, it's all I've
been doing. I don't know.

Speaker 6 (04:52):
I mean, I didn't know that it was bought that
it was like a b M I thing. Uh so
that makes sense. I yeah, the sauna is probably not
your best thing. That was Drew hit the nail on
the head. That was a wrestling trick. Just put on
garbage bags and go be unhealthy for a few hours.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
I mean, it's not gonna hurt you when you know
you're doing everything else the right way.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
But yeah, and now granted he would it would help
your scale, but I almost feel like it's borderline cheating
because that's not you. Yeah, you know, and it is.
So I was always so afraid for those wrestlers when
they're like spitting Jolly ranches into a water bottle and
they're wearing a rubber outfit at school in math class,
and you're like, you're gonna die and it's all coming

(05:31):
back hours later, Like that's all vanity or scale weight.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
Dude. I had a personal trainer once and I won't
say his name, but this guy he told me that
he couldn't have certain supplements, or he couldn't have certain
medications or some I can't remember exactly what it was,
but he couldn't have a certain something because when he
was in high school, his coach made his team do
steroids like off the books, like secretly because of it,
his body is so jacked up that if he does

(05:57):
this stuff now, like his kidneys will fail or something.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
I can't really.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Exactly that detail pos of a code, but he was.
I was there listening to that guy got hopefully he
got fired like high school sports, like yeah, I do it.
That's crazy, and like you're making them do all the
shit because of it. He's he's like my age, maybe
two years younger, and he's got all these problems because
he was juicing in high school.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
You do, if you take those types of things ever,
it's going to mess you up. But if you take
him during developmental time, well, your body's trying to grow
up itself. What it's going to do is it's gonna say, oh, okay,
that substance has it, no worries, I'll let that take
it from here when your body needs to continue. I
mean I did, I wasn't. I mean, I'm still a
little dude, but I wasn't a grown man until I

(06:40):
was like twenty. When it comes to like, you know,
finishing the growing process, right.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
And even though this guy was in shape, he still
had mantates.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
And now I know why, Yeah, because it's the same
thing as if you listed yourself with an eating disorder
in high school. Your body is going to grow in
an odd shape, just like it's messed up.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
So the next way, in the next way, And Wednesday
is a week from today, because we're recording this on
July thirtieth, and it'll be at nine thirty in the morning.
That will be the second to last one. So they'll
just be one more after that and then we'll find
out who wins. On August fifteenth is when the blubber
Burn comes to an end. And if I win, Casey
has to show those gross ass toes. If I lose,

(07:21):
I have to let a tarantula crawl my body.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
And I do believe we have possibly located a tarantula.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
My Bradley, my buddy Wayne called my phone after the
show and said, Hey, I know a guy who owns
this certain pet star. I won't say the pet sto's
name yet because it hasn't been confirmed, but okay, he
said that. I talked to the guy and he said,
I got you covered. He said, I guess. My friend
Wayne told the a store owner of the whole situation,

(07:47):
and he says, I got you covered, and we're going
to make sure that it's an older tarantula because the
younger ones are a little crazier. M So, I said,
that's fine. That sounds actually a lot better. I don't
I don't like anything running around.

Speaker 4 (07:59):
I like the idea of it, teenager, you know, I know,
just like.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
You chewing on everything.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
This one will be fully grown and hairy and big.
And he said he's gonna call him back in a
couple of days. But it looks like they got that
part taking care of. You know, I just need a piatras.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
You know, when when dudes get old in their hair
just like starts growing out of control. Maybe I'll get
an extra furry one.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
Where it's got where it's got like the Mark Twain eyebrows. Yes,
somebody is Andy Rooney.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Some of these spiders are so freaking big that they
look like they could carry objects. You know, they they.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Probably could carry you right out of here.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
We've seen that video of the crab holding a knife. Yeah,
that creeps me because to me, those are just spiders
of the sea.

Speaker 4 (08:46):
Delicious a little.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
But it really grosses me out. You guys heard this right.
It was a couple of days ago. This is in
the news that one hundred NFL players were fined for
overcharging people for Super Bowl tickets and some club you know, employees.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
So there must have been a real I mean, I
bet this is the first year they've cracked down on it,
because I bet it's an old skim.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Yeah, I bet it's been happening forever. But you know,
it's like the Super Bowl. The NFL is like, nah,
we've priced these tickets at a reasonable charge, you know,
reasonable price of five hundred, five thousand dollars. I think
the cheapest ticket was like fifty. They're like, that's yeah,
they're reasonable.

Speaker 4 (09:23):
Stop over selling because if it's already so expensive, why
are you adding even more to it as a professional.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
So someone probably had some good seeds and was selling
them for what like ten k or.

Speaker 4 (09:33):
Whatever the hell just get those things going, and it's
just free money for them.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
Nearly one hundred players fined, and a lot of club
members too.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
So I gotta be honest with you, though, why the
fuck all of a sudden do we care, Like artists
can do this, ticket master can do this. We're all
getting charged at the ass for these concerts and sporting events,
and now NFL players do it. They're like, oh, nope, sorry,
that's out of it.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
That's when I read the headline. I was just like,
so what and right, I know, but.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
Go ahead, Marcus.

Speaker 6 (10:01):
I think the reason that this is such a big
deal and none of the other ones are is because
this is collectively bargained between the NFL and the players Association.
Like there it is in their contract that they are
not allowed to sell for higher than face value. And
so I think when you look at the scale of
that how many players there are, it's You're right, it's

(10:22):
probably been going on for a while, but it probably
got worse last year and they probably said we better
put a lid on this thing before we can't control
it anymore because there's I mean, you're talking lawsuits here
and multimillion dollar ones for breach of contract, right, And
I don't think Ticketmaster or you know, XYZ Records has
these types of collective bargains with their talent, so they're

(10:46):
not going to be able to enforce it even if
they wanted to. That's kind of what my take was.
It was on it because you know, these collectively bargained
things that the NFL and the players agree on, they
go through years of arbitration to get it right, and
we've you know, we all remember there's been holdouts, Like
there's been times where players are just be like, hey,
if you guys can't get this done, there's no season.

(11:06):
It's happened in baseball, It's happened in basketball, So I'm
glad that they're doing it.

Speaker 5 (11:10):
Man.

Speaker 6 (11:11):
Scalping is a garbage sport and it needs to be
stopped all over the place.

Speaker 4 (11:16):
It's also they're all employed while they're players, and they're
all independently contracted. They are employees of the NFL, And
I would just put it in the same lane as
here in the radio business. You have access to a
lot of tickets, however, and you can go to those shows.
But if you start getting caught selling your free tickets

(11:38):
for profit, you're in trouble here.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
Which will we know that a couple of DJs, I
have definitely done that.

Speaker 4 (11:44):
I have bought tickets online from someone to my wife
wanted to go to Keith Urban Ones, and I won't
say who it is, but we bought them. And it's
the guys like, yeah, just meet me in front of
this dairy queen. I'll be the guy with the umbrella
and I get down there and it's the rival program.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Directory and where I'm at at the two paid zero
dollars for this.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
He panicked and said it wasn't him, and I'm like, no, no, no,
guy with the umbrella and the glasses in the green
jacket at the corner of Dairy Queen and he's like nah.
He's like, do you want to go get some dinner?
And I was like, what, I'm here for Keith Urban tickets?
Are you talking about geting some dinner. I went back
to the car and I told Amy that it was
a no go and she's like, wait, why I thought

(12:27):
you were getting the ticket. She's like, no, it was
a guy from another radio station. He freaked out. She's like,
how is that impossible?

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Wait?

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Why didn't he just give you the ticket?

Speaker 4 (12:35):
Because he'd be panicked, panicked, he'd want he thought that
he was also at the time, he was the the
operations manager of the cluster he worked at, Yes, So
he would have been in trouble. And if we'd gone
on our radio show, which we can.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
We would, we would have ruined his car. Yeah, we
would have ruined his career and they would have a chance.
You know, then the FCC starts investigating. Court knows who
this person is. The one time, you know, we were
just talking about these one hundred NFL players who were
fined for reselling their Super Bowl tickets, and uh, then
we were talking about, well, it's like kind of the
same thing. If a DJ sells a ticket, they get
for free. Here, they're not supposed to be doing that.

(13:07):
And then one time, I'm gonna turn the mics off
and tell you who it is. I know who it is, Okay, okay, yeah,
so yeah, uh we don't repeat because we just told it.
But but yeah, so he panicked. Yeah, he panicked and
probably just went in there and got a blizzard because
he didn't know what else to do. Yeah, that was
my favorite part.

Speaker 4 (13:24):
We don't hang out, but I'm gonna come get some dinner.
When you just pretended you're not scalping tickets?

Speaker 1 (13:29):
Have you ever done that? Though, Like let's say, Court,
it was twenty years ago. Have you ever because you
weren't always the boss, you know, you were a grubby
little grunt once did you ever sell a ticket?

Speaker 5 (13:39):
I never sold them. I would give them away. Yeah,
if if I got if I had some tickets I
didn't want to use, I just give them.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
What am I gonna do with Third Eye Blind tickets, right,
I mean we do things.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
Like, I mean, go to the show The Third Eye.
Bland's awesome, they actually do rock.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Early on, when we have like thirty tickets to a
big event, sure a couple of buddies would end up
on a bus. Oh sure, but that would they never
paid us for that.

Speaker 6 (13:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (13:59):
Yeah, I if only done that where I hooked up
people that are friends with tickets that you know, made
them quote winners. I've done that, yeah, but I've never
never sold them.

Speaker 4 (14:07):
But the statute of limitations is up on each and
every one of those.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Yeah, dude, I knew a guy who uh this is
She's twenty plus years ago who we were giving they
were the station was given away cash, you know, and
he gave the money to his friend and split it.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
Oh yeah, that's bad. That's bad.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
That's very bad.

Speaker 4 (14:24):
I mean it's a bit of a slant version. But
remember we had a street teamer here. He just used
to go in and he didn't even have to fake
a win. He'd just go in and grab a stack
and gift cards. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
And then I remember Robert. They brought him, our boss
at the time, brought him into the office. Whoever, this
guy was.

Speaker 4 (14:39):
Busted red handed.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
And they had him on camera, right, they had like
some footage of him, and and they gave him an
opportunity to tell the truth and he didn't. And then
the boss just turned around and played the video like
and the guy. I asked, I go, rot, what do
he do? What was his reaction? He goes, he just
lowered his head.

Speaker 5 (14:54):
Yeah, and he knew not much you can't do.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
He got fired, right, because like either we fire you
or we call the cops.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
Dude, I had a when I first moved to Colorado
springs man Are Station, it was it was shit. He
like it was like carpeting on the wall. It was
just like it was old school rules and like the
the doors were like just normal wooden doors. Like it
was just like the whole place terrible catch balls. Yeah,

(15:22):
but there was We had a morning show producer for
John Jay and Rich who they come in via satellite
or whatever. So it's like maybe basically it was just
like a babysitter. And after the show, yeah, I know,
but was there was like nothing to do, Like we
were all like that's.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
What I'm saying. He was just like making sure this station.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
Stayed on the app but like it was, it was
he didn't He wasn't long for the world after I
got there, partially because his job would have been eliminated anyway.
But turns out he would after the show go into
an empty office. Apparently he had like a cot in
there and he lived at the radio station, and after

(16:01):
everyone left, he would go upstairs and like scround around
in the prize closet and take gift cards or whatever
else and take it to dinner and then and then
he would go back downstairs and he would go back
into his room and just stay there. And then nobody
saw him come and go because he would get there
so early for the morning show, and then he would

(16:23):
just disappear and close the door behind him and stay.

Speaker 4 (16:27):
He was dumb to get he should have just saved
the money on rent and don't steal from there.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
I didn't say anything. Sorry.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
He's like I would have took the gift card.

Speaker 6 (16:40):
I would have been you know, it's I got a
funny gift card story. It was I got a five
dollars Hollywood video gift card as a as a Christmas
gift from the old station. We used to work out
after Hollywood Video had closed down. So yeah, I would
have stolen every gift card I could got my hands on.

Speaker 4 (16:54):
Five dollars to Hollywood Video is a slap in the mouth.
That's a mouth slap.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Yeah, because that wouldn't do that. What's not gonna get
year that's.

Speaker 5 (17:02):
A single rental And it's not like even the new movies.
That's like the stuff that's been on the shelves for
a little while.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
You can get, you can get. You can get under
siege too, yeah right, yeah, exactly what you can get, okay, anything.

Speaker 5 (17:14):
It was closed.

Speaker 6 (17:15):
There was a shadow on the on the building where
they take the letters down, but the sun bleached spot
is still there. That was all I could do is
just go stand there and look at it.

Speaker 4 (17:24):
So and that Hollywood Ideo to this day, I believe
is an antique store.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
A couple of things I want to mention before we
move on. Looks like comedian Josh Blue is going to
be in the studio on Friday. You know, I remember
the first time I remember seeing him as from last
Comic Standing.

Speaker 4 (17:40):
We're all in on that season too.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
Yeah, it was my favorite season, I think. And then
he's got a book, excuse me, he's got a book
coming out as well, so we'll talk to him about
that on Friday. Nice. Let's see here a bunch of
things that we didn't talk about on the show today.
Study help, Maybe we could talk about this to my studies.
Study reveals that things people lie about at parties.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
Oh, I bet they themselves look cool.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, And I bet before social media and the Internet,
motherfuckers were just lying. Left.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
We all check.

Speaker 4 (18:12):
We all knew that guy who was always had it,
always had it, always had something going on. And all
they gotta do back before Google is they just had
to hold the line like you just don't give up,
and they would. You'd eventually bek Well, he's got to
be telling the true these two damn passion alright.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Well, a survey of about two thousand adults until the
top ten most chair, well, sorry, reading the wrong article.
I started reading the different article. This is about that.
One's about unforgettable life moments and who cares about that?

Speaker 4 (18:40):
Those are important.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
This recent survey of two thousand students pursuing higher education
degrees found that fifty percent believe I'm reading the wrong story. Again.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
This is tough.

Speaker 6 (18:51):
Give him a chance, you'll find it you'll find it eventually.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Yeah, I don't thank you periods. I gotta know. Uh.
It was also two thousand adults in this stof okay, everyone,
every study had two thousand adults.

Speaker 4 (19:04):
They're making it hard by having that same percent.

Speaker 5 (19:06):
Yeah, it's probably the two thousand adults because it's hard
to wrangle all those people in one spot.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
A study of two thousand adults and covered that a
third admit to exaggerating their personal life details such as salary,
sporting prowess, and knowledge of current events. Research found that
fifty nine percent of individuals have embellished stories at dinner
parties and thirty eight percent adding humor for effect. Additionally,
twenty seven percent have creatively altered childhood memories when they

(19:34):
tell people like it's just maybe it's a little cooler
when you when you tell people. A study also found
that fifty nine percent of individuals have embellished stories or
did I say that already? The study also highlighted that
fourteen percent of respondents would misrepresent how they would would
prepare food when hosted.

Speaker 5 (19:52):
We just had this conversation with my kids because my
stepdad tells amazing stories, like he has done so many
things and like, legit, no, that's the thing. My kids
are like, I love the histories, but did he actually
do all that stuff? And I'm like, he did most of it.
I mean, I think there's there's a little bit of
like the fish that he caught that was six inches

(20:12):
all of a sudden is like three feet.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
But yeah, there's.

Speaker 5 (20:15):
Some embellishment going on there. But yeah, no, it's I
think it's just something that naturally people do over time.
And I don't even think that you necessarily realize that
you're doing it, because you embellish a little bit to
make the story fun a.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Little overtime and forget the real story, right.

Speaker 5 (20:28):
Yeah by the end of it, Yeah, you've caught a whale,
uh with a with a harpoon with a harpoon, right Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
Yeah. I don't know that I do that that much,
just because if I feel like people find out the
real truth, I'm gonna be super embarrassed.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
But you also have a.

Speaker 4 (20:42):
Very public life, you know, so it's kind of hard
for you to back.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
Yeah, so this is this and they're like, wait, but
you know you didn't, bitch, I heard you fail that
you tell us all every morning. Uh yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 6 (20:53):
Marcus common to talk about your salary at like dinner,
parties and social gatherings. I don't think I've ever once
mentioned my salary, and if I did, I would probably
take ten grand off of it just to make sure
that I wasn't wrong.

Speaker 4 (21:06):
Well, isn't it funny?

Speaker 1 (21:08):
Nobody does that?

Speaker 4 (21:09):
Like, if salary is coming up at the party, you're
at the party sucks or you've gone too deep. Yeah,
you need to roll back out of the You're the
one who's gone too fun. Yeah, you need to roll
back and just talk about wallpaper, dude.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
Stop.

Speaker 5 (21:21):
Usually I use that my paycheck as a coaster at parties,
Oh look, look how much I'm.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Making, because I feel like a guy usually talking about
a salary him or her is just kind of a douche.

Speaker 4 (21:31):
And they're probably if they're gonna, they're willing to bring
it up, they're probably the liar of it.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yeah, and they're they're not making nearly as much.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
They're definitely that's the embellishment right there.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
So well, Laura, have you ever lied to a party
just to make yourself sound cool?

Speaker 2 (21:44):
I mean probably, but I don't go to that many parties.
I don't get that many invites. Uh, And I don't
really like talking about myself. If I'm being honest.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
Yeah, I ask questions about other people.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
That's what I do, and like, what's annoying to me
is that I don't It's not that I'm not like
I don't take pride in my job or whatever, but
I don't really like talking about it that much. And
so there's always one friend who will introduce me to
every new person, be like this is Laura, She's on
the radio, and then.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
It's like, oh, my friend's not. My friends know that
they'll get a kidney punch if they do that.

Speaker 4 (22:19):
It's so much because it steals the conversation. It ruins
where we were going, and people now we got to
talk about us about it.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
I hate doing that. I hate doing it and I
and the people ask the same questions and it's just, uh,
I'd rather talk about you. I'm more interested in you,
Like my job is really not that cool.

Speaker 5 (22:37):
My problem with parties is I can't hear what anybody's saying.
Uh so yeah, So my my contributions and parties is
usually yeah, yeah, just laughing.

Speaker 4 (22:47):
Along, just like my wife's grandma. It's like anything they
catch it all because they got a good laugh track.
And then you find out they didn't.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
Hear a word word, but they just they know the cues.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
Yeah, they do make you feel good.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
My grandmother is the same way, and she I've said
this before, but she is like, you know, I can't
hit what you're saying. I just uh, it's like I
can hear you, I just can't understand what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
That's what you saying.

Speaker 5 (23:06):
Yeah, No, I mean the volume is fine, I can
I can hear that you're saying something.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
It's just.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Got muffled.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
Have you got your ears cleaned in a while.

Speaker 5 (23:14):
It's not clean, but they're just bad.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
There's bad.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
Yeah, it's probably a job doesn't help.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Yeah, wearing those headphones from yep.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Yeah, I'm worried about my hearing when I get older
because of the drums and this and just concerts. Yeah
what concert did I go to? And my ears rang
for like three days afterwards?

Speaker 4 (23:31):
Fighters?

Speaker 2 (23:32):
The Food Fighters, for sure, Food Fighters was savage.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
I remember Bizue my ears ring a little bit because
we were in the front.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
But yeah, after I shot guns my left like I
knew it was bad because I took out my ear
plugs and when I took out my left ear plug.
It sounded the same as well. I was like blasted, Yeah,
but thankfully it went pack.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
Yeah, it's scary like when that happens, you know. I
think I don't know if we asked this court if
you had the option to lose your eyesight or you're hearing,
can we ask you this? No, we would you choose
if you had, like if doctor Doom was standing over
you and said you eyesight to a hearing, choose.

Speaker 5 (24:07):
Oh that's tough. That is a tough call. I would probably, Uh,
I guess eyesight. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
That's because I mean, without your hearing, your career is blown.

Speaker 5 (24:19):
Well, and it's also like I always just think, like
I could I could still listen to books on tape,
no music, I could, you know, podcasts, I could, I
could be.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
Entertained communicating is I think the big thing just to
be able to talk to people normally.

Speaker 5 (24:31):
Right, But I wouldn't be able to drive anymore. I wouldn't. Yeah,
I mean it's tough, Okay with that, Yeah, I guess
I'd probably lean towards losing my sight, but obviously wouldn't
want to lose either one.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
As as like I think i'd say my sight too,
even Oh god, that'd be such a bummer. But uh,
you can you can hear with your ears, yeah, or
you can sorry, you can say of course you can hear.
You can you can see with your ears, you know,
if it's a good story, you can just paint the
picture in your head, especially if you had eyesight before.
Maybe you could just.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
Imagine what remember what that one?

Speaker 7 (24:58):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Yeah, but I think maybe I could.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
I could drop the hear and get a little piece
and quiet at that.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
That all right? Well, there it is, Drew.

Speaker 4 (25:07):
You ever embellish, Oh, I'm sure many times over the
years where but normally it's like in a story where
you're like trying to punch it up. Well, you're just
making people laugh and like maybe the line you know
from that the person said when you walked in, you
don't remember it being wrong, but it's way funnier the
way that you remember it. And so I'm I'm sure
I have stood at the at the gateway of a

(25:30):
party and not shut up so many times it would
be impossible to say that everything was perfectly on point.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
Mark Marcus, what about you? You go around just telling people
got a huge cock I.

Speaker 6 (25:40):
Opened with that, Well, I was thinking about what Drew
said earlier about the days before Google, and I was
realizing that, Yeah, in college those first couple of years,
like Facebook was a thing, but it was you had
to have a college email address, and a lot of
people hadn't bought into it that weren't at you know,
the universities that it started at, so it was easy.
And the other things that we would do sometimes is

(26:02):
like we would just make up stories just for fun.
Like I remember I was with my brother in law
of party once and he's he's a bit of a
crazy dude, Tanner. You've met him, so this story, if
you knew the guy, is like plausibly believable. But he's
got a big scar on his arm where he fell
out of a truck because he was being an idiot
as a kid. And somebody saw it and was like
what happened, And he just spouted off like I got

(26:23):
a knife fight with a crazy guy. And we packed
that story around that party all night long and had
everybody thinking that he survived a knife fight.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
And I don't know why.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
It was just fun.

Speaker 6 (26:33):
It was like, you know, just see how see how
much weaker, how long we can do this. I think
probably did a little bit more of that, just straight
up lying rather than embellishing.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
You know, crazy party is he told the wrong person
that night and got into another knife fight all right
right there at the party. All right, some other things
that we did not talk about today, and then we'll
get out of here. But eighty five people got sick
after consuming a THHC infused pizza.

Speaker 2 (26:59):
Oh it's actually fusie.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
Well he didn't do it a purpose. So it's in Wisconsin. Uh,
And the CDC reported that customers ranging from the ages
of one to ninety one years old experienced symptoms of
THHC intoxication, things like, you know, dizziness and sleepiness and anxiety.
That's it's just being stoned. So what happened was the
pizzeria actually ran out of their normal cooking oil and

(27:24):
so the guy, the guy instead used he used a
different oil, but that he thought was one thing, but
it was actually THC.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Why, like, this is a business not just like pizza
night at my place, our own pizzas.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
It's like it's like a famous pizza shop in Wisconsin.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
I don't know even have infused oil.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
But he had to apologize and I'm thinking, dude, don't apologize,
Just can you cook me another one?

Speaker 7 (27:51):
Right?

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Well, just war were so hungry all of a sudden.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
But yeah, a bunch of people got sick. You know,
I guess it is kind of scary when you just
eat some thing and all of a sudden you're stoned
and you didn't want to be king out of here.

Speaker 5 (28:03):
You have no idea how that happened.

Speaker 4 (28:04):
I'd be willing to tell most of the adults to
buckle up, but the one year old, that's probably what
the apology.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so he meant to use one oil, uh,
but he instead used the THC oil.

Speaker 5 (28:15):
And and also, I mean, depending on how strong that
oil is, he may he may have like slathered it on,
thinking it was just like all of what standard issue.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
A handful of people went to the hospital.

Speaker 5 (28:26):
It was just a way to two stone.

Speaker 4 (28:28):
You know how big you are when you're like, yeah,
I am going to the hospital.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Take me to the doctor. That one cop who stole
I think he stole some weed and he called police
and he's like, me and my wife are dying. We're dead.
We've died actually dead. At one he said, we're dead.

Speaker 4 (28:42):
I remember that and he didn't you want the score
of the Red Wings game or something something wild? Did
you wing?

Speaker 2 (28:48):
No?

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Let me pull this up.

Speaker 4 (28:50):
It's a classic.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Yeah this he was a cop, right, a cop?

Speaker 4 (28:53):
Yeah, he's an off duty cop who had I think
he had taken some edibles out of the the evidence
locker and you got too baked?

Speaker 1 (29:02):
All right? Here it is. Oh, there's animated versions of it.

Speaker 4 (29:04):
Of course. It's a classic.

Speaker 7 (29:07):
Emergency.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (29:08):
Can you please send rescue too. I think I'm having
an overdose that as still as my wife. Okay, you

don't know if they had something in it. Okay, can

Speaker 7 (29:49):
I'm just I think we're dying.

Speaker 5 (29:52):
Okay, how much did you guys have I don't know.

Speaker 7 (29:55):
We made brownies and I think we're dead.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
How much did you put the brownie? I don't know.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
I hit a bag.

Speaker 7 (30:05):
My wife and I did Cuba? Come here? Okay, get her.
She's on the she's on the living room ground right now,
barely breathing.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
I just had some intense pop brownies. Just chill, relax,
I think.

Speaker 7 (30:21):
So, okay, can you pardon? Can you look? Yeah? I
could feel it. He's laying right down in front of me.
Time is going by really really, really really glow.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
Okay, it means you got a good high man. She's
watched robo.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
Yeah, you enjoy. You're saying, you're like, yeah, all open
Netflix and chilling.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
Certain people just aren't cut out for the pot.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Don't harsh my mellow.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
He's the guy that you'd come in from the bathroom
and he'd be on the phone with nine one one,
and you're.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Like, you're nothing the photo, you know. Drew had a
friend that ended up becoming one of my friends. But
he was that way. He didn't smoke weed. Every once
in a while he would and when he did, he
saw him for about fifteen more minutes and then he disappeared. Yeah, yeah,
he just smoke bombed out.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
And in his defense, he did not usually want to
smoke weed. The room would be like, dude, hit it, yeah,
and then watch him how much you bought.

Speaker 7 (31:12):
And put in the brownie?

Speaker 1 (31:14):
How much do you buy?

Speaker 7 (31:15):
I don't on the way, but I'm trying to figure
out how much you bought and put into.

Speaker 4 (31:20):
The brownie, sir.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
It's probably like a quarter corner to the brownies and
you guys eat all the ronies.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
Yeah we did, okay, So I mean he's fast, he's
just freaking out.

Speaker 4 (31:34):
Classic mistake, though, to kill a tray. I mean, you
got to try these bad boys out. Even the most
seasoned podthead can get couch lock off some brown.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah, you don't just down them all without knowing their
true effects, right, that's absolute bit.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
Whenever you make your own like you have to make
the butter and stuff like that, it's really hard to
control the dose.

Speaker 4 (31:52):
Army Green.

Speaker 5 (31:53):
Yeah, you have no idea. So that's that's why I
love that. The fact that like it's it's now legal
where he gets to go buy some gummies and you
know it's gonna be.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
Them tested market how it is.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
I know you like to make the pop butter. Have
you ever made the pot better so strong where you
had to call the police and turn yourself in.

Speaker 6 (32:08):
No, but if we didn't go to a tool concert
the last time that I did, I'm pretty sure we
would have had to get the cops involved, because I
wouldn't have been able to keep.

Speaker 5 (32:15):
A lid on them at my house.

Speaker 6 (32:17):
It was the laser light show that just kind of
captivated everybody. I've stopped doing it that way because it's
just like you guys said, it's so much easier. And
for me, you know, I'm an every day I'm an
every day dude, So it doesn't matter how strong the
edible is. It's not gonna put me in a place
that I can't find my way out of.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
I've never been that high I got.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
I gotta tell you a quick funny thing about you
know the mega pearlummy. It's one hundred milligram big, looks
like a globe of gummy. Well, two dads that I
know went to a concert like they were browing out
left the wives and kids at home. Went to a
concert at the Motor Center and one of them is like,
he doesn't really drink anymore, so he just ate the hundie.

(33:00):
So he goes. At one point he's like, hey, I
got to go to the bathroom and my other buddy's like, okay, cool,
and he disappears for like almost a full hour, and
when he comes back, he's like, what the hell happened, dude?
I went out and looked for you, like what's going on?
And he's like, dude, uh, I don't know what happened, dude.
That thing kicked in and I just went and sat

(33:21):
in the hall and had to talk myself out of
going to the hospital for like forty minutes.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
I'm back from that now, but.

Speaker 4 (33:28):
I'm not right.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
That's amazing.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
Wow, he just don't go to the hospital, dude, don't
be a party foul.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
Oh my, because that saw him so high. I take
the I'll take thee hundred milligram Mega Pearl Indica totally
by myself.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
Really.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, not all the time, just once in a while,
but dude, that's a lot. That's dummies do nothing, and
so I need a strong one. Yeah, and even that
I've I barely feel it.

Speaker 6 (33:52):
They're just sleep aids for me, man, especially once you
get up into that fifty hundred milligram, Like I'll take
a nap. That's that's next to none. But they don't
they don't make me spin out and lose my touch
with reality anymore.

Speaker 5 (34:04):
It's just not a thing.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
My body gets kind of heavy lethargic and then and
I sleep a little bit better.

Speaker 4 (34:10):
Yeah, it just loses its productivity to me at a
certain point because it's pulling me down.

Speaker 5 (34:15):
Oh yeah, for sure.

Speaker 4 (34:16):
I don't like to be pulled down.

Speaker 5 (34:17):
Yeah, No, I like I like a low simmer. Like
I'll just do like five milligrams and just keep it
there for you know, I'll take them, you know, every
every other hour or whatever and just keep it there.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
But if the gummies are great for that, right, control
it because back in the day, you didn't know. You
just picked up and you just bite and you were
just like sometimes you went to Mars.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
Yeah, we sometimes it'd be nothing. Sometimes your toest.

Speaker 5 (34:39):
That happened to me actually with the same guy that
you were talking about earlier, who was scalping the tickets
we went. We went camping once and a friend of
ours made weed brownies. But they had soaked the weed
in ever clear for like a month, and then they
made the brownies and so it had like a little
bit of extra kick to it. And then I did
this the the rookie thing where you like, eat one,

(35:02):
waited a while, This one didn't work at all, Give
me another one. Ate the second one. The first one
kicked in, and that's by.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
You did what they did Wolf of Wall Street with Kail. Yes.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
And after the second one, I was on the moon.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
Ever clear old school extracted the rest of the THHC
off of that plant and put you in thunder mode.

Speaker 5 (35:18):
Yeah. So I was fed and I was seeing lights.
We were, like I said, we were camping, So I
was seeing lights flashing in my eyes. I thought I
was having a heart attack. My wife was the same way.

Speaker 4 (35:27):
We were like, oh my god, we're gonna die here,
like I want to feel like fields.

Speaker 5 (35:32):
The next morning we're supposed to be there for another
day or two U And the next morning we're like,
we're done. We're leaving, packed up our craft and all
were craft back out and out of there.

Speaker 4 (35:40):
So, yeah, that's amazing.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
Sounds like a great time a blast, all right, Well
it does it for us, Laura. Would you you want
to leave us with any parting words or any words
of encouragement, anything, you know, May the.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Lord bless you and keep you today.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
And bring out the jay swat.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
I figure we need to after that that discussion, need
to cleanse fair enough our sins.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
Well, hallelujah, We'll see you tomorrow with more three eleven
tickets and uh yeah, bing Bing Gang Gang transportation terminating.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
You've been listening to Tanner, Drew and Laura's Donkey Show,
heard daily at one oh five nine the brew dot com.
May God have mercy on all of our souls.
