thea the red face of white supremacy, has scourged the
Internet and she has found some folks that are in
need of some help. However, they weren't asking for help
from assholes like us, Thus the unsolicited part of the title,
do you have a preview for these these fine ladies gentlemens?

Speaker 2 (01:21):
And they them's alike.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
M got a temu tu purchase on here tu?

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yes, the new Wishes the new Chinese money laundering website
where they sell new Uh, wasn't it?

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Wish was selling the like.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Movie currency that was going around a couple of years ago.
You could buy like a thousand fake hundred dollars bills
for for like five bucks, and they'd ship it to
your house and it had really tiny print. It was
like this is for films only. Otherwise it looked totally identical.
You don't remember that, No, I remember when that was

(02:03):
a big deal. Maybe it was longer than five years ago.
Maybe I'm just getting old in times, times rushing too quickly.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
I mean, isn't.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
That's a normal thing, though? What movie currency? Like film?

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Film currency? But it was quote unquote film currency. It
was really just counterfeit money that they were getting off
because they put it in tiny little print that it
was it wasn't real, but people were taking it to
like banks and grocery stores and retailers, and the worst thing,
the worst thing you can do, the worst thing you
can do to somebody. Listen, you should never counterfeit money

(02:39):
to begin with. But the worst thing you can do
is go and buy something with counterfeit money off a
Craigslist deal. That's the worst or Facebook marketplace nowadays, that's
the worst thing you can do, because that guy's fucked.
That guy just gave you something for toilet paper. You know,
if you bring it to the bank, the bank, at

(03:00):
the grocery store, whatever, they're just going to write it off.
That guy can't write off his marketplace deal. He's royally fucked.
You're an asshole. If you bring knowingly bring counterfeit currency
to a marketplace deal, that's your own fault.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Anything else before we jump into.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
This, Nah, you'll find out the other.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Ones, Okay, But before before we get into that, I
want to just I want to address something on the
air that initially so we all know.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
There was the Charlie Kirk thing.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
We talked all about it on Saturday, right, and then
over the last week we've had some individuals going around
dosing people, getting them fired from their job, reporting them
to employers, all kinds of stuff like that. There was
a local group here in Nebraska named Nebraska's Against Government
Overreach aka NAGO that posted a whole compilation last weekend

(03:56):
of individuals whom had may celebrated Charlie Kirk's death, laughed
about it, made jokes about it, whatever the case may be.
I have varying opinions on a case by case basis.
You know how I feel about this. If you're genuinely
celebrating somebody's death, I don't care what happens to you.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Good good. I hope they destroy you.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
But a screenshot got shared that I didn't even know
was in there until I had to go back and check.
Someone texted me about it Tuesday morning. Two people texted
me about it Tuesday morning. There was a comedian from
the Lincoln comedy scene who had made a joke about

(04:40):
Charlie Kirk on Facebook. His name is Will Doherty, and
I'll tell you what a nice guy. I've worked with
him a couple of times. We booked him on our show.
Seems like a decent fella. We don't agree on anything politically,
and we've had discussions about that. Sometimes he did, but
I've always rec expected him, and he's always respected me,

(05:01):
at least I hope he has, you know, because I
can actually work with people I disagree with. My best
friend since middle school is a lifelong Democrat. But I
get a text this morning from two different people saying
that the rumors are going around that I'm the one
who quote unquote docs will to Nago. Now there's a

(05:23):
I wasn't even going to address this. I wasn't even
going to address this on air because I like the
idea that I'm the big, bad boogeyman for these people,
that I'm the one behind all of the bad things
that happens to everyone in their group, and I'm just
lurking behind every corner. I like it when people are
a little uneasy around me, right, I like it when

(05:45):
when a certain percentage, like I always say, I want
like sixty seventy percent of people to like me, twenty
percent of people to hate my guts, and then like
ten to fifteen percent of people to just kind of
be nervous. They don't know how to box, they can't
quite describe me, right, And I think I'm getting close

(06:06):
to finding that medium in my life, that goal. But
you know, varying percentage depending on the month. But I
liked the idea that I'm basically they're Jew their Jew conspiracy,
because you know how like the Nazis think the Jews
are behind everything they rigged it, you know, from nine
to eleven to rigging football games.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
I'm kinda like Mia.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
I've taken Justin Healy's role, ironically enough of being the
Jew of the local comedy scene. I am to blame
for everything bad that happens to everybody.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
I like that.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Maybe that I'm being a little bit exaggerated. Maybe they
don't blame me for everything that happens to them, but
it's always in the back of their mind that it
could have been me. And I liked that, And I
was just going to let that rumor sit out there.
But I like making you feel stupid even more. And
when I realized I had the opportunity to make you
look like idiots, I decided that was going to be

(06:59):
too much, too good to pass up on. So there's
a couple of reasons this isn't me, and we'll get
to the primary one. Last number one, this is not
my moo. If you are a public figure whom I
have a problem with we can go back and check
the tapes. Guys, whether it's local no name comedians, whether
it's sports writers, whether it's Jonathan Montoya, whether it's Dan Osbourne,

(07:24):
whether it's Jean Stouthard. If I've had a problem with
you and you're a public figure, I've had no problem
going out on the attack dropping your name live on
air on my very very public show, right, so sending
a screenshot of If you want me to be totally honest,
I didn't think the joke was that offensive. It was

(07:46):
pretty innocuous if you look at what he said compared
to some of the other stuff on there. I didn't
I'd honestly, I don't even think what he said should
have been on there.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
It was a tacky joke.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
It wasn't funny, but it also wasn't like all, I
want to destroy you, but you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (08:00):
So what was I gonna say? Where was I going? Oh?

Speaker 1 (08:06):
So it's not my m to come after you. Also,
this is the best part about it. We've got the
screenshots side by side. Go ahead and pull it up.
It's the third one down right there.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
So the one on the left is my Facebook profile.
Take the screenshot taken from my profile. You can see
I have like two notifications there because I'm a popular man,
and then that's my private profile, and then on the
right that's the screenshot that was updated uploaded to Nago. Now, Mia,
what are the can you tell any major differences there?
Besides the fact that the screenshot was taken on a

(08:38):
different phone than mine because I don't have the Android
poverty thirteen and a half, that this person took the
screenshot on.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
What else do you see the difference there?

Speaker 3 (08:51):
Is that a different profile?

Speaker 1 (08:53):
No, it's the mutual friends? Yeah, no, it's it's not.
It's the same guy I know.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
But is it like two different profiles because there's a
different amount of mutual friends?

Speaker 2 (09:06):
Right?

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Because I'm not the one who took the screenshot, whoever
took the screenshot and sent it to nago had four
mutual friends with will I have one hundred and twelve?

Speaker 2 (09:19):
The screenshot's right up there. You can look at it.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Go jump on rumble outlaws streamers if you guys don't
believe me, the screenshot in question had the person that
took it had four mutual friends with him compared to
one hundred and twelve.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Well, you could have added one hundred and you're.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
Right, I added one hundred and eight people.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Well, I knew it was coming, so I'm like, I
gotta divert I gotta give myself plausible deniability.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
So I went down as friends listen, just added one
hundred eight people. That's enough. You could take that down. Now.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
I know you guys out there that are spreading conspiracy
theories about me that so badly wanted this to be true,
are not the most exceptional or impressive people out there.
I know your losers. You have little to no skills,
but I honestly expected better out of you. I honestly
expected better out of you, And I know some of

(10:11):
you are listening to this, So why don't you This
is free game. I'm offering you friendly advice. I'm not
even being a dick here. Why don't you talk to Will?
Because something tells me he's not gonna return my text messages.
Why don't you tell him to go look at how
many friends I have in common with him, and how
many friends and his wife too, tell her, and how

(10:32):
many friends the person who sent this screenshot in has
in common with him, and use some deductive reasoning. Why
don't you tell him to go down as friends. Listen
if he really cares about who did it. To be honest,
if someone did it to me, I don't know if
i'd care because the joke wasn't that bad. He really
has nothing to be ashamed of. It's not like he

(10:52):
was celebrating the guy's death. He told a joke, it
didn't land whatever. But you can tell him to go
down on that list of friends. He has figure out
who he has four mutual friends with, and he'll really
start to narrow it down. He'll be able to identify
as mole. I'd probably want to know because I'm about
loyalty and I I don't want any moles out after me.

(11:14):
But it's like I've been telling you, guys, it comes
to a larger point. Also, for the record, this is
not doxing. Whoever did this, they took a screw. Doxing's
where you publish people's addresses and employers and stuff like that.
They took a screenshot of a Facebook post that was
set to friends only. Didn't you listen to your parents
when they told you, guys, everything on the internet is

(11:34):
permanent and it's all public.

Speaker 2 (11:36):
You should act. We used to have.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Our football coaches would tell us don't post anything on Facebook,
or do anything outside because this was before Twitter and
all that that, or do anything outside of school that
you wouldn't want on the front page of the newspaper
Sunday morning. Now, everything I post to my private face.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Now.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
I keep my Facebook private because I have lunatics that
have come on and tried to stalk in harass my
family members.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
So that's why I keep it private.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
I do what I can, but I'm also under no
illusion like there's someone could screenshot anything that's said on
my Facebook profile and publish it at any point in time.
That's fine, I don't care, but it's not docsing. When
someone takes a screenshot of a Facebook post, it was
just a joke.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
So there's that. So y'all better.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
I've been telling you guys all this for the longest time,
and nobody seemed to want to believe me. But you
don't have as many friends as you think you do.
There are a lot of people who are having a
good time leaking some things out there. So I would
be very very careful because I found from two different
sources that your whole little group, when your whole little
gaggle of dumbasses was talking about me. I don't know

(12:46):
if that was one of the people that leaked it
to that group. I hope it was. It would be funny.
But anyway, I just wanted to clear the air on
that I am not the one who leaked it.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
I know.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Boohoo, sad, sad, You're actually going to have to work
for something in your life. You want to know who
did it and figure out who the real leaker was.
Otherwise I don't know what to tell. You can't blame
the Jews for this one.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Sorry. Okay, should we get.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Into the first one here? Which one should I do first?

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Or do you care?

Speaker 3 (13:19):
Start with the TIMU one first. That one's a good one.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
Oh boy, that's the worst thing you could buy on
the team ou Okay, just a second, Am I the
asshole for telling my fiance I don't want my TEAMU
engagement ring?

Speaker 2 (13:40):
Oh boy?

Speaker 1 (13:41):
This was taken down from the other sub, so I
figured i'd post here with an update. My twenty seven
female fiance twenty nine male proposed to me a few
weeks ago. It caught me completely by surprise, but we've
been together for three years and things have been going,
so I was really excited. He said, yes, I really

(14:03):
liked the ring when I first saw it my friends
and family. I'll think it's stunning. It's an oval cut
with quote unquote diamonds across the band. I asked where
he got it, and he wouldn't tell me where, but
that he got a great deal on it. I didn't
think anything of it until yesterday. We were in bed
and I was asked him if it was diamond or moist,
and I mainly out of curiosity. I don't have a preference,

(14:24):
by the way, He said he didn't know and he'd
have to look it up. When I glanced over at
his phone, he was on the Temu app. I asked
him if he got it from there, and he didn't respond.
No response is a response, guys.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
He had to look at the item description to see
if it was.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
Really would have told the truth. I mean, Timu might
say it's diamonds, but can you believe it? I asked again,
and he responded with something like does it matter and
left the room ended up sleeping on the couch. Wow,
I is it, Timu or is it a ring that
was intended for another woman? That's where my mind's going here.

(15:02):
Maybe we don't have the full story. Timu's a convenient cover.
I spent all nights so confused. Today decided to download
the app and look up my ring, and I found
one that looks identical. I found it listed at thirty
eight dollars.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
It's not even a tank of guess it costs more
for two people to eat it. Apple pa'se I'm mad.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
He makes good money, two hundred grand a year, and
I feel like could have shelled out some money for
a ring better than one on Timu.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
You know what? Am I the asshole for telling him
I don't want it? You know what? You know what?
Do I need to read this update? Is this relevant? No?
The man is economical.

Speaker 4 (15:51):
No. So basically the update was just so there are
people in the comments that were wondering if maybe he
was doing it as like a test to see how
she would react.

Speaker 2 (16:02):
Oh, he was awful defensive for a test.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:06):
So the update was basically she asked him about it,
like she asked him if it would be like a test,
and he got offended. Yeah about that, and yeah, he
tried to de escalate and he said he's sick of
talking about this, and it's water under the bridge now.

Speaker 3 (16:23):
And he told her that she can buy her own engagement.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
Wow, she can pick it out, or she can buy it.
She can buy it wow.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
So either she's stuck with the thirty eight dollars teamoo.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
Ring from him speaking of Jews, yeah, or.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
She has to buy her own engagement.

Speaker 4 (16:39):
Right.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
So is the guy So what do you think? Is
he a cheap ass?

Speaker 1 (16:43):
Or is he in crippling debt and literally can't afford it?

Speaker 3 (16:51):
Maybe both?

Speaker 2 (16:53):
You don't usually get both.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
No, maybe he's in crippling debt.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
So now he's now he's becoming a chee. He's going
to Dave Ramsey route.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
Yeah. I mean, folks, there there's people that.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Make substantial amounts of money, and I guess this guy
saw like a big income jump and then they don't.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
They don't.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
They don't allow their income to outpace their lifestyle for
a while when they see a large a huge jump
in money, and that that's always a mistake because you
can get real easy. We're doing that, believe me. So yeah, no,
I don't. I don't know. What do you think? You're
the woman who's wrong?

Speaker 2 (17:40):
Here?

Speaker 3 (17:40):
Him? For like one hundred, Like you don't.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Yeah, but you wouldn't want a sales ring for twenty
five hundred dollars either.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
I know you, okay, but still you.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
Scoffed the chain jewelry stores every time we walked by
them before we were engaged.

Speaker 4 (18:00):
Okay, but it's insulting to.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Get a team that is pretty bad.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
That's like worse than like Walmart even, Yes, that's almost
like a joke.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
Yeah, it sounds like she wouldn't have cared if it
was from Zales or whatever other k or whatever. Yeah, yeah,
that's insulting to get something off Timu or.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
Like maybe it's three months salary.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Maybe he's working in like a Chinese sweatshop or something
for three cents an hour.

Speaker 4 (18:36):
You don't know been together for three years, like and
also she said it was unexpected, so it's not like
she was waiting on it too.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Do you believe that that a wedding ring or engagement
ring should cost three times three months salary for a man?
Or is that just kind of a dated like where
where did that?

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Well? We all know I've talked.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
About how the diamond industry is a scam in this
kind for you a number of times on the show.
But what what do you think what should an engagement
ring cost? Drop a comment on YouTube, rumbo or the
Facebook group if you if your idea as to what
an engagement ring should cost?

Speaker 2 (19:12):
What do you think it should cost?

Speaker 1 (19:15):
We're married, You're not getting a bigger one, so this
literally doesn't matter to me. I'm just curious what you think.

Speaker 4 (19:21):
I don't want to say because because what I don't.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
Want to sound.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Let's hear it.

Speaker 4 (19:30):
I think at least two thousand.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
At least two thousand, that's not bad. No, that that's
not bad. Listen if two thousand dollars is almost a
deposit at that point, guys, because if you can't afford
to come up with two thousand dollars, you can't afford
a woman that you can't afford a wife.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
But I do want to say not everyone wants, not everyone.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
Needs like a a fancy rings ring.

Speaker 3 (20:02):
Some people do like family rings too.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
I don't know what that is.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
Like grand grandparents' rings, like mother's rings, Like.

Speaker 1 (20:12):
Oh yeah, yeah, that makes sense. Do you think you
should clear it with the person if you're going to
use the grandma's ring.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
See that's the thing that I don't know, because what.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
If it's like ugly, you know, yeah, yeah, See, these
are all important questions that many of you need to ask.
Who am I our fucking audio? They're getting married? Are
you kidding me? You're never gonna get fucking Who are
we talking about now?

Speaker 2 (20:37):
For real?

Speaker 1 (20:37):
Though, Fellas if you can't come up with two grand
like that while you're single, you cannot afford a wife.
I'm telling you right now, you cannot afford a wife.
You cannot afford the trip into Target for one seven
dollars item that turns into one hundred and seventy seven dollars.
You cannot afford to go out to eat at the
restaurant that you and your boys go out to every

(20:58):
Friday night, that you spent twelve dollars on including tax
and tip, but for whatever reason, when she comes, it's
forty nine dollars because you got to get the dappetizers
and the drinks, and the this and the that and
the extras in the the.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Sy all that crap. You cannot afford it.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
I'm telling you you will be nickeled and dimed to death.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Todath That's not true. It is true.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
You can't afford to have to spend Listen, guys, if
you're married. Anytime you leave the house with your wife
carried twenty dollars cash on you carry twenty dollars cash
on you because you're gonna drive by a Starbucks and
she's not going to let you get past it until
you stop in that fucking drive through. Twenty dollars cash.

(21:45):
Every time you leave the house, make sure you have
it on you. Do you notice how my wife is
sitting off to the side of the room and laughing.
She's not correcting me, she's laughing because she knows I'm right.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
Well, and when you go to the Starbucks, you gotta
get the drink and the snack tea.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
You can't just get That's why.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
I said to twenty, not the twelve, because the drinks
are just like twelve thirteen Bucks. You gotta because they,
for whatever reason, Starbucks has invented this scam where they
convinced suburb I was gonna say, white women, but my
wife's not white, and she falls for They convinced suburban
women that six dollars and eighty five cents for a
slice of iced bread is a good deal for a snack.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
That that's what Starbucks has figured out here.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
So I'm just giving you, guys advice on whether or
not you're ready for marriage.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
You can't always say no.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Huh, excuse me.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
We both know that's not true. We both know that's
not true.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
That's like saying the natives could have said no to
the trail of tears. You guys didn't have to go
on that walk? All right?

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Should we go to the next one before I end
up on the couch tonight? Actually no, I'm already on
the couch. I think the next one gets me put
out in the shop behind the house. Okay, let's go
to the next one here, am I. I bet I
could make that shot pretty cozy if you ever got

(23:28):
like real mad at me.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
I could put a cot up in there.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
And there's already chairs in there.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Those chairs, But I could.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
I'd level the shelving and I'd put some stuff up.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
I like a TV.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
I bet I could make it work if I had
to little window air conditioner. Absolutely, it's plenty big enough.
It's basically you take the shelves down. It's basically a
mother in law suite.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Okay, what.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
I twenty five? I mean, I'm just I'm all about
preparing for the future, for bad things, whether it's a
bad financial event, whether it's you know, martial law zombie apocalypse.
You want to have MRIs and ammunition stacking, food and
water stocked up. Or my wife gets mad at me
because I take a joke too far on a podcast
for a seven minute bit that should have been thirty seconds,

(24:16):
and she makes me sleep out in the yard. I
have a nice little shop that's like a fourth the
size of my house out back. I can just go
sleep in. That be perfect, Okay, says uh. Would I
be the ass if I was senting a job offer
that I previously gave a young girl? Well, is she

(24:37):
a single mom? I'll give you the answer right away.
We can skip this whole story, says I twenty five.
I'm a general manager at a frozen yogurt shop. Fun fact,
that's where Mio was working when we met. Was at
a frozen yogurt.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
Shop seven years.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
It was not at the shop that we met. I
was not going cruising for chicks at the fro yo spot.
I want to make that clear. I am not the owner,
but I have been with them since I was a
teen and worked my way up to my current position.
It's been the perfect pair with my classes, perfect job

(25:16):
to pair with my classes. As the general manager, I
do the scheduling as well as the hiring. The owners
trust my judgment and let me hire and fire at
my own discretion. Last week I hired a girl sixteen
from the local high school. She was extremely sweet and okay, pause.
The owners trust my judgment, let me hire. Like, Look,

(25:37):
that's good for you, But I want to make if
you're a business owner and you hire a general manager
whom you can't trust to hire people at a frozen
yogurt play. We're not talking about military contractors or outer
space travel, airlines and anything like that.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
We're talking frozen yoga. No offense.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
If you work with frozen yogurt, you have a necessary job.
I love frozen yogurt. I haven't had it in a while.
I kind of want to go get some now. But
it's not this end'll be all thing. It'll be okay,
it says. Last week I hired a girl sixteen from
the local high school.

Speaker 3 (26:17):
Difficult.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
It's life or death, right, it is the hardest job.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
Well, some people think that it's She was extremely sweet
and showed a willingness to work. Seems a little on
the quiet side, but this being her first job, I
think it's expected to an extent.

Speaker 2 (26:32):
There were zero tells or mentions that she may be
special needs. Oh god, here you get me canceled with
this one. Aren't you that this is gonna be We're
gonna lose half our sponsors, We're gonna get kicked off
the platforms we're not already banned from. This is it.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
This is the final episode of that space. Thank you
very much, have a good night. We'll see you guys
later after this show, because this is our final show. Evidently,
because Mia is baiting me into a situation she knows
I can't avoid. Just like I can't say no to
the Starbucks, I'm not going to be able to avoid
saying something very, very offensive during the segment.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
I guarantee it you two days.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
I mean, it's not even a special needs adult, it's
a fucking little girl that you're making me go after.
I am the prince of punching down, but even I
have my limits. Two days after hiring her, she's not
supposed to start until this upcoming week. Her father came
in and introduced himself to me. He was polite and
thanked me for hiring his daughter and left his phone

(27:33):
number telling me to call him after I'm off. I
was confused by this, as I've never dealt with a
situation like this, but I did call him. That's a
not special needs, that's a gen Z thing. It's like
forty percent of gen Z kids bring their parents to
the interview, twenty percent have them sit in on the
interview with them.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
It's really, really weird.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
We should create fake job postings and try to see
how many gen Z kids show up with their parents
to just film it. What do you think that'd be
a funny bit. I did call him. He thanked me again,
said his daughter at a severe anxiety and was a
slow learner. Anxiety is not special needs. I thought she

(28:14):
meant like dyslexia or something like that. Okay, I'm free
to go here, and that I need to make special
accommodations for her.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
Here's what they are.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Do not schedule her for more than three hours at
a time. Please allow her as many as she needs.
Oh so it is just as gen Z kid ten
minute breaks.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
When she starts to appear overwhelmed.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Our dad, how about you raise a kid that doesn't
get overwhelmed working with fucking frozen yogurt. Why don't you
do that? Why don't you raise a kid with a backbone?
And we avoid this problem altogether. He said that if
it is very busy, it's best to let her just
sit in the back room and watch YouTube. Where do

(28:57):
I get this job? That's what I want to do.
If it's very busy, Oh, you mean the time we
need you the most, you can't be there. Her school
comes first, says, which I understand, but says she has
significant homework, or when she has significant homework, she'll need
to call off. You don't start with that. You just

(29:19):
lie and say I'm sick. They don't need to know that.
Give her plenty of compliments, and let the other staff
know to go the extra mile to make her feel welcome.
This dad never got his ass kicked, and it shows
this dad needs to get his ass kicked. Where does
he live? I'll kick his ass. If she does make
a mistake, do not discuss it with her, but call him.

(29:41):
So why doesn't she just hire the dad? Why doesn't
the dad just get the job? I don't know much
about employment law and not sure if I could be
in legal trouble. But like every state, we have at
will employment.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
I called it.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
Yeah, no, No, listen, dude, Americans with Disabilities Act is
there to protect people with dyslexia, people who are in wheelchairs,
people who are epileptic, things like that. Americans with Disabilities
Act is not basket Cases with Disabilities Act. There is
a giant difference between the two, or American Basket Cases Act.
I guess I should call it because it's being a

(30:15):
basket case is not a disability, Absolutely not. You are
not the asshole. I don't think you should rescind the
job offer. I think you should call her, bring her
into work on her orientation day, and then fire her
for the first mistake she makes.

Speaker 2 (30:29):
Just see, just watch your melt down. What do you think.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
I don't think he should like.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
No, I would keep her and I would hold her
to the same standards that I held everybody else do
and totally ignore the dad. What's he going to do?
Come down here and yell at me. You get the
fuck out of my store. I'm calling the cops.

Speaker 3 (30:48):
It's not her dad working.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
No, she's got to learn. Yeah, I agree. I think
you're right.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
I think you teach this kid a real life lesson
because obviously the parents are going to and I hate
the whole It takes a village kumbaya John Lennon bullshit.
But evidently that's what we have to do because we're
raising up generation of coddled pussies, and if the parents
are going to coddle them and act like pussies, we
have to step in as the village and toughen them up.

(31:15):
So you hire her, you hold her to the same
standards as everybody else. Maybe you're a little harder on her.
Maybe you give her the real shit jobs, literally shit jobs. Hey,
that customer that just went and destroyed the bathroom, that
asshole that was lactose intolerant but eight frozen yogurt anyway, Yeah,
go clean.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
Up after him. That.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Maybe that's what you do, because somebody's got to start
toughenting these kids up.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Or we're fucked.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
You don't think like China and Russia and all these
countries are watching the generation of pussies that's coming up,
that's in high school, in college right now, thinking oh
my god, it's only a couple more years until these
losers make up the majority of the fighting aged force.
We are going to kick the living shit out of

(31:59):
you and take parts of your country over. You don't
think they're watching that. We have to start toughening these
kids up right now, yesterday. Honestly, we've got to start.
So I'm with Mia. I think you bring the kid in,
you teach your a life lesson, and you just you
show her how the real world works. Hey, you're scheduled

(32:19):
for five hours today. You don't come in, you're fired.
You're fired. No, I will not talk to your dad.
If your dad calls me, I'm going to hang up
on him. If he calls me again, I'm going to
call I'm going to tell him do not call me again.
And then if he calls me again, I'm calling the
police for harassment, and he will be banned and barred

(32:41):
from the store. He can sit out in the parking
lot to drop you off and take you and pick
you up from work. That's as far as he's welcome.
He will not be allowed back in the store. You
can work here and be an adult. If that's fine
with you, then so be it. If you want to
work for somebody else who's gonna coddle you. It ain't
my fucking frozen yogurt shop, sweetheart, It's not happening. Okay,

(33:02):
you picked the wrong ice cream parlor to try that
bullshit with me.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
Anything else you want to.

Speaker 4 (33:09):
Add, It's not ice cream, it's frozen yogurt.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
Frozen yog Remember when in the nineties when there was
the big push that frozen yogurt was healthier than ice
cream for people, that was the big thing everyone. I
don't want to get ice cream. I'm gonna get frozen yogurt.
I'm making the healthy choice today. Yeah, I'm making the

(33:33):
you know. And then they cover it and just chocolate
sauce and gummy bears and sprinkles, and it's like, Okay,
maybe an ounce of frozen yogurt is healthier than an
ounce of ice cream.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
I don't have it in front of me, I can't tell.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
But when you doubt, when you get like a pound
of frozen yogurt and then douse it in candy and
chocolate moose and all this extra crap in syrup, I
think you kind of defeat the purpose of frozen yogurt.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
Certain ones are actually healthier, but when you add on
all the crap topping syrups and stuff.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (34:14):
I did also see a couple comments on the post
where people had a theory that the dad went in
like behind the girl's back. Like the dad possibly could
have gone in behind the girl's back, and like the
girl possibly.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
Like didn't even know.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
There's yeah, possibly, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
I with this generation, I believe that this is that
they're in cahoots and they see this as totally normal.
Would you ever do that for No, you wouldn't do
that for a kid. I wouldn't let you.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
No, I too scared to go in.

Speaker 2 (34:47):
I'm gonna be when my kid's a teenager.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
I'm gonna be the parents that's calling the job saying,
please be hard on my kid, Please give my kid
the shittiest jobs possible.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
There's sixteen years old. You know what I was doing.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
I was building shelving in a warehouse. I was building
shelving in a warehouse. Shelving that was made out of
metal that was warped and didn't fit. So I had
to take my sixteen year old hands and a rubber
mallet and bang them together until the metal would fit.

(35:21):
And then we would pick it up and the stuff
would fall because it was garbage. And then why one time,
we had to take the shelving down move it to
a warehouse that was four bays down and then rebuild it.
Do you want to talk about a shitty job. That's
what I was doing when I was sixteen. Nobody helped me,
nobody held my hand. Just had to sit there and
build the shelving and get and get angry. It was

(35:44):
me and the shelving.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
That was it. I hate the word shelving to this day.
Because they did.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
The company that we were doing it for was too
cheap to go out and buy the new stuff, so
they went to the recycling plant and they got all
this stuff that didn't match, and you had to mix
and match the pieces and bang the stuff together and
saw it down that didn't weigh was. It was a
great time. I loved it. Your your princess. The point
I'm making here is your princess at sixteen can handle

(36:13):
a fucking frozen yogurt shop. Okay, last one, and the
last one's brought to you by Hot Salt. Hot salt
goes great on everything. And if you go to firecracker

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Says uh am I the asshole? Or is this relationship exhausting?
My boyfriend forty five refuses to memorize The Facebook ones
are always the best.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
They are because Reddit, it's weird. Reddit.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
You've got like the degenerate liberals, but Facebook is like
just just morons, just toothless, trashy pajama pants at Walmart,
probably on meth.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
Morons every time illiterate.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
My boyfriend forty five refuses like these are trailer park
problems when we get the Facebook ones in Reddit? Is
like I said, degenerate liberal problems in Portland Facebook or
trailer park problems. My boyfriend forty five refuses to memorize
our address or his phone number.

Speaker 2 (38:12):
Wow? Does he a CT?

Speaker 1 (38:16):
At least once a week he's asking me what his
phone number is. He's had the same number for seven years?
Sow you know seven years?

Speaker 2 (38:23):
No, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (38:25):
He's always asking what's our apartment number? And what's the
zip code here? Does he not have an ID? Can
he pull that out and look at it? Can he
write his phone number down and put it in his wallet?

Speaker 3 (38:38):
It says it in your phone?

Speaker 2 (38:41):
What your phone number? Does it really?

Speaker 3 (38:43):
Yeah? You can like go to your contact.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
Oh my card? Yeah, there it is there it is. Wow.
I didn't even know that.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
I guess I just know my phone number because I'm
not an idiot, says he's always asking what's our apartment number?
What's zip code there? I almost understand because we just
moved to a new state. But I wrote the address
down for him and texted it to him. He still
asks all the time. We used to live in a
townhouse with no apartment number. He was constantly asking, what's
the apartment number? And are you sure we don't have

(39:14):
an apartment number? We lived there for three years. I
finally snapped today. I told him he needs to grow
up and memorize his information. Now he's pouting and making
a big deal about pulling out a piece of paper
to write his info on and acting like he still
doesn't know it, mumbling about why I can't just tell him,
are we.

Speaker 2 (39:28):
Sure this guy doesn't have a brain tumor or something.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
Like?

Speaker 2 (39:33):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
I would hope that if I was just forgetting basic
information all the time, that you would tell me, hey,
why don't you go get your brains checked? Like why
why don't you just go get looked at real quick,
you know, get a little cat scan and we'll see what's.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
Going on there. And if nothing's that that then you
can be a dick to me.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
But I would hope as a yes, I think you're
the asshole for lashing out and not maybe looking at
something a little deeper. Is there some type of it?
And maybe it's not a brain chom right, just be
some cognitive defect. Did he play football and he's got cts,
get gray matter on the brain or whatever. I mean,
it could be a lot of different things. It's not
always the worst of the worst. But I feel like

(40:14):
you're rushing to judgment here going after him because he's
constantly forgetting pieces of information. Maybe he is just a giant,
forgetful man child. It could be that as well, but
I feel like you should rule out serious cognitive issues
before he has that seizure. You take him to the hospital,

(40:37):
find out there's an inoperable mass on his brain, and
you feel like a giant, fucking asshole. That would be
my only recommendation. Do you have anything you want to
add or we're getting out of here.

Speaker 4 (40:50):
I mean, say he is perfectly healthy, nothing wrong with him.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Oh, then fuck him. He's yeah, yeah, No, he needs
to remember his shit. He's just lazy and stupid.

Speaker 3 (40:58):
Get it together.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
Yeah, he's just lazy. Anyway, that's been our show. We
will see you guys on Saturday. I'm trying to get
Monty Scott in to talk about all the fun stuff
that's going on in the world. Mia is going to
add a new segment to the end of each Saturday show.
We're not going to tell you what it is till
we get to it. It's gonna be a good time.
She's are you stepping in front of the camera for this?

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Maybe?

Speaker 1 (41:25):
Are we switching switching rolls for this? Okay, we'll figure
it out anyway. That's been our show. We will see
you guys on Saturday. Cheat on your taxes, now your spouse,
and stay based

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
