just the sun must have had diarrhea. I think, I
am who is she mad? If she's mad at me,
I didn't do it.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Someone must have flung some of those Harbor gummy bears
sugar whatever, the sugar free gummy bears. It causes mass
explosions from the tail, the tail pie. They must see
you come to the to the sun, because holy cow,
has it been noisy.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
It's been crazy And.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
I even heard some stuff on six meters today, so
you could really Yeah, I tried. I threw my call
out on sideband through my call on fifty two five
to five. No one came back, but it was still
fun to kind of kind of you listen a little bit.
I did make some contacts on twenty meters as a
hunter here at the house.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
I just stayed home. I I watched the truck. I
whacked it. I gave it a good job. I gave
it a good waxing. Nice. Uh, nice for detailing what
I gotta. I gotta make it that. Why can't Why
can't a man say that I waxed, Yeah, right now,
I waxed. I waxed on and I waxed off all day.

(04:23):
I mean, man can't say that.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
See Docs, Docs got it. Docs says the sun has
been farting solar flares. Yes, they've been off over there.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
Yes, Doc, you're absolutely right.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
So it just shows you. You just to show you
the sun's not done yet. We're not knocking down in
that cycle. We're still charging. I just had to take
a little nap to get a little sleepy time.

Speaker 5 (04:42):
I want to give a shout out to Jason, Bill Kyle.

Speaker 4 (04:50):
And I forget the other guy's name. Those guys they ran.

Speaker 5 (04:55):
On Jason's other channel after the after his show on
Sunday a night. Yeah, they were doing a talk around
around the fire around table around. Yeah, guys, you got
to check this you got to check this channel out.
And Kyle and the g and everyone brought up some

(05:15):
excellent points because there's so much to take away.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
I'm not an r v R. I wish i could be.

Speaker 5 (05:21):
It's not going to happen in my lifetime unfortunately, but
there's still a lot of takeaway from this show.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
Because they were talking about.

Speaker 5 (05:30):
Internet services when you're on the road, really gives you
a perspective that if you want to do a backup
system for your house, if you go on a lot
of vacation stays or whatever, you want to make sure
you have it.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
There was I can't. I want to thank Jason, Kyle.

Speaker 5 (05:48):
H the other two guys because they were just absolutely
that Bill And you know something, we got to get
him onto this show, I really got.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
I got We've got to hanging out a few times.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Oh yeah, that goes without saying. I think I know.
Did he have a cigar with you? Does he smoke
his cigars?

Speaker 4 (06:10):
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
I could have been mistaken because this is like been
when we were up at Yellowstone.

Speaker 5 (06:17):
I got to reach out to Bill. I got to
get him on the show because and and I know
he has a busy schedule. We'll make it work. But uh,
I think he has an interesting perspective. He brings something
new to the table.

Speaker 4 (06:31):
That's something that that what I and this is what
I like about a lot of the the newer YouTubers
have who have come in over the years.

Speaker 5 (06:38):
They're not duplicating everything that they've already seen. They're just
doing their own. And just when you and just when
you think there's you know, we we've we've seen it
fifty ways, they're now bringing in fifty one fifty two
different perspectives or or what they're doing with it.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
And uh uh I really enjoy that show. I really
really enjoy it.

Speaker 6 (07:00):
So anyway, even so, Hi, Steve, Steve, just like that
must have been so we've been We've been going for
eight minutes and you dropped out like thirty seconds before
I had the go button to do a net that
has got to be the shortest net in history.

Speaker 7 (07:17):
I had nine check ins. It's not even a potent activation.
And that's counting myself.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
Yeah, you can't. You can't count yourself.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
So h net control can't check into himself.

Speaker 8 (07:29):
Now, what what net is that we were were We
were trying to to uh figure out what it was,
but we didn't know if it was the uh the
South Carolina WIO Systems net or no, what was it?

Speaker 7 (07:43):
It's my local club's Tuesday evening VHF UHF local. One
of our channel members actually checks in, but he's local
to me. Actually, I think two of them. See if
Jeff's in here.

Speaker 2 (08:30):

Somebody to put a link in there otherwise I missed it,
all right, Like I can't.

Speaker 4 (15:44):

Speaker 5 (15:45):
One color, one size, that's it. We're not gonna this

Speaker 4 (15:53):
Why we're gonna just take the logo or something. It
has to be a special pillow. Okay, well your phone
with headphones on it? No, James Quirky, James Quirky q RP.
I know he could design, So he's good at designing.
You know how to go. I have a couple of

(16:14):
shirts to proof things that we've said that. Uh you
should have.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
Been exactly so I I want to say, I don't
know I could create a memet of this.

Speaker 10 (16:28):
Sorry.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Uh so last week the reason I was not here,
we had a pilot from a pot of balloon pilot
from believe it's Missouri, and there's not very many higher
balloon pilots up there, much not less any commercial pilots
who can do flight reviews. So the weather happened to
work out. He was here in town and I said, well,

(16:51):
I got you didn't care of so I took him.
I took him flying. I didn't take it flying. He
flew with me and we got his flight review taken out.

Speaker 4 (16:59):
So that's time. Yeah, so that's my that's my story,
and I'm sticking into it.

Speaker 7 (17:06):
Well, what was the story about the drone in the
balloon or can you not talk about that drone the balloon? Yeah,
the balloon that got the video of the drone coming
too close.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Oh, I haven't seen the video yet because I know
it was it was. The Feds have it, and I
don't know if it's been publicly released yet, so that.

Speaker 4 (17:26):
We're not vague booking.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
There was a a pilot in Arizona who was flying
along and one of the new Amazon drones came within
fifteen feet of his hot air balloon traveling seventy miles
an hour.

Speaker 4 (17:42):
Oh, and the.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Drone is supposed to have like a camera so we
can see an avoid, it's supposed to steer, it's supposed
to do all that, and it apparently it thought fifteen
feet was avoiding, so that was considered a near miss.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
I had an ass on it.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
It's making a mad dash away from Mississippi. So but yeah,
the they were the discussion that's been going on would
have been had it struck any part of the main
structure the balloon, it probably would have sent the pilot
and all of their passengers to the ground. So yep, yeah, yes,

(18:22):
Ape says, does does flying a balloon make you a pilot?

Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yes, you do have to have a certificate.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
It's a it's an additional rating that's added on to
my existing certificate. And I will say of all the
things that I've flown, and I've flown things from business
jets all the way up to assessments, and I will
say that the balloon is more difficult because it's such
a finite machine to fly, and it's everyone says, well,

(18:50):
you're just adding hot air, that's the case. But to
get it to go where you wanted to go when
you wanted to go, there is But it's not a license,
it's a certificate because you can't revoke a license, but
you can revoke a certificate.

Speaker 7 (19:05):
Really, because that's what it's called. That South Carolina would
make a differ, Well, they can take away.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
They can take away your license for other things, but
the FAA, I believe cannot.

Speaker 4 (19:16):
It's certificate action. It's not licensing.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
The reason why they delineated that.

Speaker 9 (19:21):
So certificate.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
Yes, you're a certificated pilot, kind of like sophisticated.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
That's sofiable, that's right.

Speaker 5 (19:31):
But that's but that's so you're you have, you have
your was it you're one o seven with endorsement.

Speaker 4 (19:37):
I have.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
So I have my private pilot certificate and I have
ratings on top of that, so I have a lighter
than air rating and I have a.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Instrument rating and it's a different class.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
But now I have a commercial So my certificate actually
says commercial on it and then on the back it
says private pilot, single engine airplane Commercial pilot uh l
t A with the airborne heater.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
So I can't fly gas balloot yet come in you
kind of fun.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
Well they have gas blow yes, Oh I didn't know
that I was not.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
Yeah, So there the Transatlantic balloons that you see in
the big huge balloon races, those are all done with
gas blots, so they're full of height, they're full of hydrogen.

Speaker 4 (20:23):
Hydrogen.

Speaker 7 (20:25):
And then and then it wasn't right now, I was
what certificate do you need to fly for Goodyear?

Speaker 3 (20:36):
You have to have an airship rating.

Speaker 9 (20:39):
I mean you get to drive one in Blaps.

Speaker 3 (20:42):
I don't have the airship rating yet. I want to.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
And a friend of mine in Paris text has just
bought an airship, so continued.

Speaker 4 (20:50):
I'm gonna give you my two cents on this airship. Okay,
the airship.

Speaker 5 (20:54):
The airship is. The airship is good, don't get me wrong.
You look up in the.

Speaker 4 (20:58):
Air and you're like, oh my god. You know, the
thing is huge.

Speaker 5 (21:02):
It's it's huge. Okay, it's fast, but it's like a
Nascar thing up in the air. It's only going around
and left turns, left turns.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
While you're watching the soup. Now, yes, it is. They
fly that all over the country. When when watch Clear
McFarlane's latest video, they have to play with it. That's
really he got to fly, yeah, okay, let him fly.

Speaker 5 (21:24):
Okay, but what what about the guys who are contracted
to do like a football game, super Bowl.

Speaker 4 (21:31):
That's all they're doing. You're flying the circles man, mm.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
Hmm, yeah, hard that is.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
It probably is hard. It's probably hard.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
You're having to stay in this title aid, you got
drones all over.

Speaker 10 (21:44):
You, and.

Speaker 4 (21:46):
The thing harder is for me to sit here and
not say nothing. Okay, that that's that's I get.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
Can you watch the game because you're too far away?

Speaker 4 (21:59):
Yeah? Yeah, you the best can ship, So no disrespect
to them.

Speaker 5 (22:05):
But again, I guess for anything wide you know, you know, venturous,
go for it.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
Man.

Speaker 5 (22:12):
That's I'm sure that's gotta be some serious stuff. And
I'm sure they got oh yeah, well do they because
because in high school, no one, my guidance consolorate didn't
didn't say.

Speaker 4 (22:24):
Do you want to drive an air shift? No, they're
not gonna tell you about that. They should have.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
This is for those This is for those that say,
you can't steer a hot air balloon.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
What's the red That's where I was the highest? Okay,
I thought that might have been the splash and dash.

Speaker 9 (22:44):
That's where you had to go and catch that other
air flow.

Speaker 4 (22:47):
Exactly going the other direction.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
So that so you can't I can't draw on screen it, No,
I can't. So that this is the where the arc is.
That's a big ranch and that's a big no. No,
you're not supposed to be landing in that ranch was
that rancher gets really angry. So we were getting close
to sunset and I had to steer out of his
ranch because I couldn't make it all the way across
his ranch because the winds weren't do it.

Speaker 5 (23:15):
Can you imagine if you landed on on the Smoke
and Apes property, he would lose his ship.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
He would not be happy, especially he'd have that pitchfork
out with the artilliate Artillian cannons and that it now, yeah,
exactly out of balloon.

Speaker 5 (23:40):

(25:52):

Speaker 2 (26:04):
She's in the chat.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
She's better than the chat.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Hey, nay, everybody knows.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
Yeah, yeah, I ain't that the truth those introduction But
we haven't done anybody else's So, Steve, do you want
to kind of fill us in? How are things on ran?

Speaker 7 (26:24):
Well, like I said, lost a buddy of mine to
cancer unfortunately, so and his funeral is going to be
field Day weekend.

Speaker 4 (26:35):
Well that's less than desirable.

Speaker 7 (26:38):
Yeah, I'm debating. I gotta get the trailer out to
our field day location and his uh celebration of life
will be in Pennsylvania, So that's gonna be a hop
in the truck and hall ass. But I might get
a couple of poetas out of it if.

Speaker 4 (26:55):
I go there, you go. Don't you have another member
that can pull a trailer?

Speaker 7 (27:01):

Speaker 1 (27:17):
You don't let nobody else run, then, don't you?

Speaker 4 (27:22):
Yeah, I keep trying to give that thing up. No,
you had the opportunity tonight, had you had eight other.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
People they won't seven other, seven other options tonight.

Speaker 4 (27:36):
Let's talk about that for a second.

Speaker 5 (27:38):
Why is it that seven other people will show up
and if the net control doesn't show up, nobody will
not just take the reins and do it.

Speaker 4 (27:46):
That psychology just blows my mind.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
I don't have the script, and they think that they don't.

Speaker 4 (27:51):
Have they know what to do.

Speaker 5 (27:54):
Just say, hey, we're here tonight. Here's the name of
the thing. I'll take checkings. You can come on, step
step off.

Speaker 9 (28:01):
I'll take care of the next year.

Speaker 4 (28:04):
He did a pre recorded that.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Became my own strip. Here you are the sultry sound.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
Let's they hear the sultry sounds of Mississippi. We got
a bend opening here.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Wow, Jody's got it. Jody said, it's the bystandard effect.
Nobody takes it the initiative because they'd stand out. Yet
yet they complain when they're signaling heard but they don't
want to stand or.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
Or if the net didn't happen to all Right, who's
got Facebook or teams going? I don't know what you're
talking about. Yeah, a look, look at Joe, that's the thing.
Where's it open at? I can't hear that? Oh? Oh,
here I'll fix that.

Speaker 7 (28:59):
Yeah, here you so I've been dealing with that. I
did get a couple of videos posted from the ride.
Not happy with insta three sixty because I can't edit
the video and keep three sixty mode.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
Okay, I watched one of No, I watched one of
them last night's Steve. It wasn't three sixty. It was
like a one eighty at best.

Speaker 11 (29:18):
Right.

Speaker 9 (29:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (29:19):
If I if I do any overlay on it, like
the the wording or anything, it transitions it to a
flat video. But I've got I've got at least one
up that's full three sixty, maybe two.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
Else, do you hear me? Yep?

Speaker 2 (29:35):
Yeah, hopefully I won't get any more. My system sounds
because I thought I had that window close.

Speaker 7 (29:44):
But other than that, uh, nothing, nothing really going on.
I spent all day in meetings today, so we'll see
if travel.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
Picks up for me or not. That sounds thrilling, Yeah.

Speaker 7 (29:59):
Freaking six half hours of Hey, this is what we're doing,
this is where we're at.

Speaker 4 (30:03):
I don't give a fly in art. Why is that six?

Speaker 5 (30:09):
Why can't I thought those meetings are less than sixty minutes,
you know, thirty five minutes? Forty minutes, don't ask no questions,
and everyone just go back to doing whatever you gotta do,
go back to your cubicles or whatever.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
No, because this was.

Speaker 7 (30:25):
A group out of California, a group out of DC,
group out of here. Yeah, there are probably sixty seventy
people in the meeting.

Speaker 9 (30:33):
It could have been accomplished in two or three emails.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
Huh yeah, exactly, or even a PowerPoint, except I could
say that the folks in California that where they were
hosting the meeting all had food. They didn't order us anything.
Oh that's not right, yes, Je.

Speaker 7 (30:51):
And then of course they had the meeting right through
our lunchtime, but they've got to break for lunch.

Speaker 4 (30:56):
Steve. That's where you need a soundboard with the doorbell. Now, doorbell,
hang on, I'll be right back, doorbell. I just need
that soundboard. I'll take it. I don't care.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
Have you seen the real Have you seen the reel
where that that that lady's on the phone with her
boss and she's pushing the button on the microwave saying
that she's at the hospital.

Speaker 4 (31:15):
Oh yeah, no, I didn't see that one. Holy shit, Yeah,
oh my god.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
That was good.

Speaker 7 (31:23):
Yeah, Carlos knows two emails tops exactly, except they want
to reply all, which that option should be taken out
of every freaking email system.

Speaker 5 (31:35):
Let me tell you something. I see it on the
io groups today. It's twenty twenty five. Can we please
follow some email etiquette?

Speaker 4 (31:46):
What are emailing? That's the point? You reply all saying
this doesn't apply to me.

Speaker 5 (31:54):
No, just in general, people love to hit reply all
to that sender, which obviously bounces to everybody io groups.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
They want to be that person.

Speaker 5 (32:04):
That's why I don't Oh my god, I no, I
don't want to turn into the grumpy old guide tonight. Yes, yes, Carlos, right,
it's just like sending it all in and then.

Speaker 4 (32:16):
Yeah my last. Thank you, Mike. You're absolutely right to
please people learn some etiquette.

Speaker 10 (32:24):
We have.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
We have meeting etiquette at my at my work. If
you if you come up on time, you're not allowed
to extend meeting.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
It has to stop. You have to schedule another meeting.

Speaker 7 (32:33):
Oh no, this meeting was scheduled for eight hours today.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
Oh no, huhuh yeah nope. Did they give you a
bathroom break at least?

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (32:43):
Elevator music? Oh I mean no, but literally did they
say Okay, folks, we're going to take a break for
for twenty minutes and you know, go to a black
screen some elevator music. Yep, you know.

Speaker 7 (32:54):
No, they just mute the mic and walk off and
then forget to un mute when they come back.

Speaker 4 (32:58):
Of course, now that that's COVID etiquette.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
It is this a little option to put people's chat
on our screen. Yep, I'm afraid him. I'm afraid my corner.

Speaker 4 (33:16):
You did you did click it? Okay, okay, hey do
you guys?

Speaker 5 (33:22):
Do you guys remember during COVID people forgot what they
had in the background?

Speaker 4 (33:28):
Oh god, I don't know. Did they purposely do that
to get a ride? They're just touris Overland with the
five Gifted subs. Thank you? Kathy Thomas got one? I guess, say, Mike,
nice to meet your tortoise.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
So, Steve, do you have access to readolf? Who got

Speaker 7 (34:12):
Well, no, see, I've gotten gifted memberships on streams. I'm
not even sitting in.

Speaker 4 (34:18):
How does how does that? How that works? What kind
of etiquette is that? Because I would think you'd have
to be here.

Speaker 7 (34:28):
I would you're subbed? Is that one of those bots?
I guess if you're subbed to the channel.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
Someone whoever's in charge of software testing, you two missed
that that wasn't part of their test case. Yeah, so
I guess we need to ask the chat do you
want the chat on our screen or would you rather
keep it off to the side.

Speaker 4 (34:48):
So, oh, I can do a poll.

Speaker 7 (34:52):
You either a past member or chatter in that channel. Okay,
so that's how I got it.

Speaker 4 (34:57):
Yeah, do a poem.

Speaker 9 (34:58):
Chats already in the chat, but sometimes it goes by.

Speaker 4 (35:07):
What was it?

Speaker 3 (35:07):

You need to grab it by all means, any any
means necessary.

But all right, Joe Brah, this is what you're gonna do.

Speaker 5 (44:07):
You're gonna walk into that depot and the most important
thing in your hand is gonna be a clipboard, because

that food.

Speaker 4 (44:19):
And that's what you're gonna say. You're gonna say, listen,
I'm gonna I'm here to check out a package. Make

number they gave him. And I can't trust that it.

Speaker 3 (45:54):
Mm hmm at least you got now we're not gonna
go there.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
From a detective point of you, is that the first
clue is that the first clue that there was no
tracking number on it.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
I mean that was a tracking number by the shipper,
but not by the by the shipping company, not by
the you know, do you could throw the air tag
in and I could have meld it back.

Speaker 5 (46:20):
But is that a clue or am I going to no?
Or have I been watching too much you know, n
C I S and whatever especial victims unit. Have I
been watching too much of that? Because there's a clue.
There's a clue here.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
Yeah, if you haven't files right in the verse forty
eight hours, forty eight hours, that Kyle is right, that's
that's one of that's an important show. Forty eight hours.

Ape said it was an inside job.

Speaker 10 (46:56):
I bet it.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
I bet it it got sent to Nebraska instead.

Speaker 4 (47:00):
M hmmm.

Speaker 1 (47:01):

think somebody knew somebody and the guests sent back to.

Speaker 4 (47:09):
Uh the ship seller Seller's remorse. Yeah, trying to remember
who got who that came from. Initially there's jimn Oh initially. Yeah,
Well they probably was watching Clubhouse. I heard us talking
about its band. Possibly that's all you need to who

(47:31):
I'm thinking. I think he just bought my old seventy one. Okay.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
Apparently hand Man and Connecticut says the same thing takes
extra days. When Joe Brits instance is taking an.

Speaker 4 (47:46):
Extra month extra month. Yeah, yeah, I think that's who
I was thinking. I'm thinking, like I said, clipboard, Joe
Brett's gonna walk into that ship or with a clipboard
that boys need to have a talk.

Speaker 9 (47:59):
M there you go.

Speaker 4 (48:01):
I'm here from the United States Tracking Company. Yeah, there
we go. All right, we do have a topic tonight.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
It was the other dy Lo. There's the picture he
sent me, the picture that he sent it in because
Jim said, I left it in the same box he
sent it to me.

Speaker 4 (48:18):
Somebody led by lights. Well, somebody needed somebody. Yeah, well right,
somebody needed LEDs.

Speaker 9 (48:25):
And then the other Andy said, hey, if you ever
find it, I got the original stickers.

Speaker 4 (48:29):
So there you go. I got a sticker too, Joe,
do you want me to Joe? I would, I would.
I would mail you a sticker. But that's sort of
putting salt on the wounds.

Speaker 10 (48:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
Pretty the sticker might actually get there, guaranteed to get there.
Oh so, just so that we don't disappoint one hundred
and thirty people who have showed up for tonight. So
the title for tonight's show Washee.

Speaker 4 (48:55):
Shane hold on one minute job right, better be careful
with that mirror. His point, because he could be doing
something and able to reflect through the mirror back to
the camera and we can all be in or this
could be one of the greatest shows ever. I just
the camera just panned and followed him.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
Yeah, I think he's I wonder we'll ask him what
he gets back. I think he's using that fancy camera
he's got. All right, it's been Yeah, it's been mentioned
in the chat a couple of times, and I want
to bring up on screen.

Speaker 4 (49:26):
I don't want to know what's.

Speaker 2 (49:29):
Share share? Do bratter you using that pocket camera? That
why keeps following you around? Yeah, and apparently it's having
a hard time finding you again. All right, So onto

(49:49):
what we were going to talk about tonight. So I
don't know if you have seen this yet, but uh,
I don't know if you call it stepper or step
I are. I don't always call it step I are.
But it says as of they will cease production of
consumer antennas, not commercial consumer antennas and accessories on August thirty,
first of twenty twenty five. So another Ham radio supplier

(50:14):
is done and done. MFJ was first, I believe, I'm
not I'm sure there was more prior to but seeing
you know, and I made the comment to the guy,
so I was like, who has five thousand dollars sitting
around to spend on a two element?

Speaker 4 (50:29):
YAI is the two element five K Now, I'll pull
it up after I close it out the website. That's
what happened.

Speaker 9 (50:38):
That was the thing government sales. I think everybody going
for government.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
And I was just about to say, if that's what
they're doing, that's what they're doing now, then then they're right.
Two element y forty three six is four thousand, nine
hundred and fifty five dollars. It's on sale because the
sticker price is five thousand, four hundred and six dollars.

Speaker 9 (50:59):
That doesn't matter, is they don't want to be in
the consumertive market.

Speaker 2 (51:03):
Yeah, And I think that's exactly it. I think they've
enjoyed their commercial space and.

Speaker 4 (51:08):
They're like, no, we're not gonna miss with it.

Speaker 7 (51:10):
I don't remember the two elements or the urban bem
being that expensive.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
Yeah, even the urban beams five thousand dollars. But who's
who's gonna pay that kind of money for?

Speaker 3 (51:19):
I mean, other than Steve who steals it off of
a ship from the navy of it.

Speaker 4 (51:23):
Yeah, well, who's gonna pay for five thousand dollars for
an antenna?

Speaker 7 (51:28):
So the four element that I have is now listed
at seven thousand dollars. Wow, And I know I offered
it up to somebody for a hell of a lot
less than that.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
They're they're they're twenty through six. Dipole is twenty eight
hundred dollars.

Speaker 4 (51:45):
Nope, yeah, no, I not my seventy five dollars. Dipole
will do just fine. Eight dollars. But yeah, mini does
just as good my case.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
If you're gonna make us take time away from our
government have money making stuff to make your little penny
AINI stuff, you're.

Speaker 4 (52:07):
Gonna pay for it?

Speaker 10 (52:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (52:08):
I mean Camelan, Chamealan, whatever the name is, does the
same thing.

Speaker 4 (52:12):
Chameleon, is it?

Speaker 1 (52:14):
Cha million?

Speaker 9 (52:15):
See?

Speaker 4 (52:15):
I know that what you think too.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Now.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
I'm just gonna bring that up because there's a particular
YouTuber that is always doing reviews on their stuff, and
I get excited and I go look, and I'm like,
a basic vertical antenna is four hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 7 (52:32):
It's probably let's look at the tripod that them and
one other manufacturer selling.

Speaker 4 (52:40):
See Kyle's got it.

Speaker 2 (52:41):
He said, you just think how much they're charging for
the commercial intent of the If the personal one seven thousand.

Speaker 4 (52:45):
Dollars, that's our tax dollars right there. Hang on, let's
see if they'll tell me how much the commercial ones are.

Speaker 3 (52:52):
See, Don's got it, the ex commander. That's all you
gotta do.

Speaker 10 (52:55):
Won and done.

Speaker 1 (52:57):
But you think about it, though, I mean, how can
you as a company sell to government, you know, army
and stuff like that at such ridiculous prices, but at
the same time offer almost the same type of product
to consumers for a hell a lot less.

Speaker 9 (53:17):
I mean you can't. I can't strip it down enough
to make a five thousands.

Speaker 5 (53:22):
There's one company there, and I'm not going to say
their name in the publication world. No no, no, I'm
not because no, no, no, no, I'm not getting they
make antennis.

Speaker 4 (53:35):
Very exactly. They are exactly the same.

Speaker 5 (53:37):
Whether you buy the public safety or whether you buy something,
it's all the same.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
I don't know, no, No, the sorrow comment makes the
sorrow two meters dual band radio, not radio antennas.

Speaker 4 (53:54):
Mhm, No, I'm not talking about comment. I'll say that
after the show. But it is not.

Speaker 9 (54:03):
It's hard to beat the.

Speaker 1 (54:05):
Comics.

Speaker 2 (54:07):
But so I up there that said that said talk
about flex radio, but flex radio there, it's not just
an antenna, it's an entire system.

Speaker 4 (54:20):
That we're talking about.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
One piece of the system is five thousand dollars, not
the entire radio system being five thousand dollars. Well, now
I'm not.

Speaker 4 (54:29):
Defending high price. Yeah it is. No, it's just the radio.

Speaker 7 (54:34):
What's your gout AD, the co X, the power supply,
the antenna, that's the system.

Speaker 2 (54:40):
You don't need a power supply. It's all built in.

Speaker 4 (54:42):
You just plug it in, hook it empty Wi Fi
and okay, if you're buying the overall, yes, no, it's not.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Just do you need a power supply for the other
the other ones? I don't think you did.

Speaker 4 (54:51):
Think so oh on the website right now, you got him,
You got him digging.

Speaker 2 (54:57):
Now, hold on today, So you start complaining about stuff
and look who shows up?

Speaker 4 (55:03):
Yeah, we start ranting the price. I thought I thought
we took it.

Speaker 5 (55:07):
I thought I thought we took care of all rants
the first fifty six minutes.

Speaker 4 (55:12):
Now never, So what do you think, Daniel, Yeah, most
of what's your thinking?

Speaker 10 (55:18):
I think you got to put tariffs on somebody so
that they can survive.

Speaker 4 (55:24):
Sure, I'm good with that. I don't I don't understand
why that kind of money Welson? What's the price for that?
And kinna in Canada? If you have to buy Canada,
is it a few dollars more?

Speaker 12 (55:38):
I haven't looked it would be well, I don't know
what the it used to be.

Speaker 10 (55:42):
We can get Ham radio year without duty, so it
would just be whatever the American price is converted. Yeah,
so like probably like forty grand I don't know, I
don't know what. I don't know what it'd be. You know,
Joe Bratt made a good, like, you know, a little
comment there. How how does the company do all this

(56:03):
military work? And then it's because it's not like the
reality is without the government, you know, overspending subsidies or
you know, like it's not viable. And I think, I
think to some agree, like that's the reality is our
market is so small, like we love to think that

(56:24):
it's so big, but it's not, you know, like it's well,
you're talking about power suplies. Everybody recycles para splies like
there's not one. There's not one power supply like we
think about it. No one's throwing away power supplies right,
like like silent keys, you know what I mean, Like

(56:48):
like that all my paraplies. I think I bought one
new all silent Key power supplies. They've been around for years,
and like they're just a commodity that never really dies.
And then we pride ourselves on fixing stuff, you know.

Speaker 4 (57:01):
So like.

Speaker 10 (57:03):
That's that's the reality is, Like how many power spies
are really being sold? Not that many, there's probably more.

Speaker 7 (57:08):
Does the government massively overpays for everything? Yes, that's fact.
They pay two hundred dollars for a toilet seat that
we can go down to Walmart and buy for twenty bucks.

Speaker 4 (57:16):
I'm gonna give you.

Speaker 10 (57:18):
Corporate welfare is what it is. Like think about it,
Like I'm not like this. I love it at the governments,
you know, like we're buying something, but it like when
you buy, like when the government's willing to spend four
or five times the pridate the market value, it's welfare
for corporations.

Speaker 5 (57:32):
Right, so oh yeah, absolutely, But how about this perspective though,
step by are in anyone else?

Speaker 4 (57:40):
You sell it to the hams? You know what the
hams are going to do if they don't like something. No,
they're gonna get on social media.

Speaker 5 (57:47):
And they're going to bad mouth and you sell, you sell,
you sell the government. That's one component you'll never have
to worry about.

Speaker 4 (57:55):
You're never gonna have to worry about somebody from the
Navy or whatever talking about this kind of on Now
you're wrong.

Speaker 7 (58:03):
Why there is a YouTube video out there of a
set of marines, Yeah, that took a printer out to
the field with them and unloaded with a two forty
saw because they couldn't get support for the printer.

Speaker 2 (58:26):
They cost the amount of the printer plus all the
ammunition that they they went through a.

Speaker 4 (58:30):
Full belt on that printer.

Speaker 2 (58:32):
You know how many companies and people by the printers.

Speaker 10 (58:37):
But think about you know how many the companies and
people they just go to Walmart and buy a new
printer when they run under the bank. It's cheaper just
buy a home new printer with a characters and go
buy any cartridge.

Speaker 4 (58:47):
Right, yeah, absolutely, it is new printer for for eighty
dollars or new eight for Walmart. Exactly.

Speaker 7 (59:00):
You have that you have that company out there their
initials or hates people that they will sell you a
subscription for your ink.

Speaker 4 (59:09):
Yes, they all do. They here's the problem. Here's the
problem with that.

Speaker 7 (59:15):
If you sign up for that and then don't return
their cartridge and buy an aftermarket cartridge, they disable your printer.

Speaker 10 (59:22):
Wow, printer companies, printer printer companies are getting very smart
with the chips on them, like to buy a non
like original cartridge and have the printer read it. Like
half the time, those those chips are they're not like
we we get them for our white format printers we

(59:44):
have like the big format printers at work, and you
can either buy the original manufacturers ink or you can
buy an aftermarket brand or whatever you want to call it.
And half the time those stupid cards, those cards they
don't they don't work like sometimes you're real because I
don't don't know if you've ever seen it, but it's
like it looks like a almost like a credit card

(01:00:04):
with a chip in it for the bigger printers. And
then obviously and uh, it all registers how much links
in it, So you can't even take a card off
of another print cartridge or in cartridge will put it
on it because that is it's written into that card
permanently that it's got zero ink. So like, but half
the time those cards don't work. Uh, they have to

(01:00:24):
be sent back and reprogrammed depay in the butt.

Speaker 4 (01:00:28):
Oh the things you learn here in clubhouse. I swear
to God, this is so cool. I didn't know you're saying.

Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
If I don't buy HP Inc From an HP printer,
they're going to turn it off.

Speaker 4 (01:00:35):
They won't work only if you've had the subscription. They're
gonna call you a trader. They're gonna call your trader.
I'll just go buy another end. How can we do that?

Speaker 2 (01:00:46):
That's crazy because it's connected to Wi Fi.

Speaker 10 (01:00:50):
Sure, that's like words like when she's stopped paying for
the that would be like q R zed when she
stopped paying for the monthly whatever the thing they shut
down your or ready.

Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
You know Jimmy, Jimmy, Yes, industry is killing him. Thank you, Jimmy,
you're absolutely right.

Speaker 10 (01:01:12):
How many? How much, like, let's be honest, between all
of the manufacturers, how what's the dollar value that you
think that Ham Radio stay in America purchases for new
rigs in a year. I'd be interested to know if
there's a study on it.

Speaker 4 (01:01:25):
Depends on how many YouTube videos come out about it.

Speaker 12 (01:01:28):
True true, true, trying to sell the U.

Speaker 10 (01:01:33):
With a non working Bluetooth module.

Speaker 4 (01:01:36):
You know, this radio doesn't have a tuner inside of it,
or hey, the radio has got a pr S but
oh wait, it doesn't work yet.

Speaker 12 (01:01:45):
Yeah, so how many people watch in the live stream
right now?

Speaker 10 (01:01:49):
How many people? Okay, so can we do a poll?

Speaker 12 (01:01:54):
Did you buy a new radio in the last twelve months?

Speaker 1 (01:01:59):
When I can do that?

Speaker 10 (01:02:00):
All right, yeah, let just do that, because then if
what we can do is we can get like a
you know, it's I wouldn't say that it's perfect statistics,
but of one hundred and thirty if we'll see how
many people bought a new let's say eight break, So
did you buy a new h africanna last twelve months?

Speaker 12 (01:02:16):
And we could take an average average value, multiply.

Speaker 10 (01:02:19):
That out by the Hams in North America, and let's
see what what the industry can expect in dollar figure
in a year.

Speaker 4 (01:02:27):
Hang on, I gotta I gotta go vote here.

Speaker 3 (01:02:32):
Okay, it's up. I didn't I bought a used radio.

Speaker 10 (01:02:38):
Gues place, yes, place, Come here, come here, come here.
You know you don't be on camera, but you have
to tell them what you just said. She to my
son my daughter she got her license last week. My son,
my daughters went.

Speaker 4 (01:02:53):
I started the card.

Speaker 10 (01:02:53):
My son said, going to day.

Speaker 4 (01:02:58):
Well, yeah, can the car yo you want?

Speaker 10 (01:03:05):
I don't have cash, but I can pay you back.

Speaker 4 (01:03:08):
See this is how it starts. You can't take the
car out. It's starts.

Speaker 5 (01:03:12):
But I want to go to dairy Queen get blizzards. Okay, yeah, yep,
we'll let that run. I came on the show and
it's like it was meant to be.

Speaker 4 (01:03:25):
Always. You know what, I did buy a new radio recently?

Speaker 2 (01:03:30):
Yeah I did.

Speaker 4 (01:03:32):
I did. I've boughtd to I'm waiting on it. It's
in the mail if it ever gets to you.

Speaker 3 (01:03:38):
Yeah, well, or did you did you buy that expensive
QRP radio?

Speaker 7 (01:03:42):
Negative, sir, I bought a kit radio that they're selling
through groups.

Speaker 10 (01:03:53):
How many new radios were launched at dating this year
or around you know, whether it's Japan or one that's
the new.

Speaker 3 (01:04:00):
M the A one X Yeah, okay, it's the q
RP radio that has a few bugs.

Speaker 9 (01:04:08):
What do I mean by launch? But now they're actually
so who knows?

Speaker 4 (01:04:14):
Well they did do the.

Speaker 9 (01:04:17):
So you guys.

Speaker 4 (01:04:20):
That's right?

Speaker 10 (01:04:20):
And oh yeah, hold on, I have a question I've
been so so consumed by other things besides for Ham radio.
I'm such a horrible person. Last time at the Dayton
they had that radio that was just parts and they
didn't announce it.

Speaker 4 (01:04:37):
Yep, was that last year that was Icon?

Speaker 10 (01:04:41):
What? What did that turnout to be?

Speaker 7 (01:04:43):
The seventy sixty? And they released that one at the
Tokyo hmpfest.

Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
Okay, that's right, Okay, when is ac I'm gonna do
a refresh because they they've had the same.

Speaker 4 (01:04:59):
Now I'm gonna he or that it's the best selling
radio and why I fix?

Speaker 10 (01:05:02):
Why?

Speaker 2 (01:05:03):
Why refresh something that sells so good? But the seventy three.

Speaker 3 (01:05:06):
Hundred is way outdated. I mean, they've got to be
doing something.

Speaker 4 (01:05:10):
It's for fifteen years at this point at least would
they do? They gotta fix that ov flight.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
Ain't nothing wrong with a OB flight.

Speaker 4 (01:05:21):
Wait a minute, I have Wait, so I have two
of them. They're still doing great.

Speaker 2 (01:05:26):
Seventy three hundred shift.

Speaker 4 (01:05:28):
I got two of them.

Speaker 7 (01:05:29):
Yeah, I got the I got that Uncle Dom twenty fifteen.

Speaker 4 (01:05:35):
No, so so what's the benefit. But what is the
benefit of me getting the new and improved seventy three hundred?

Speaker 1 (01:05:42):
Bro?

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
I'm just you get a better better field drink, you
bet get a better front end, you get better uh
digital signal processing, you get all all the latest and
greatest of a software defined radio.

Speaker 4 (01:05:54):
Okay, no, see this is where I disagree with you.

Speaker 10 (01:05:56):
Guys.

Speaker 7 (01:05:57):
Oh you know you told me right what. The Aurora
was also announced at Dayton.

Speaker 4 (01:06:06):
Guys.

Speaker 5 (01:06:06):
You know it's gonna get you better, a better antenna,
better feed line, and then after that it's up to propagation.

Speaker 4 (01:06:14):
Okay, yep, are y'all still hearing my dinger?

Speaker 10 (01:06:17):
Go on?

Speaker 4 (01:06:17):
Nope, okay, make your thing go off.

Speaker 10 (01:06:22):
This ding.

Speaker 9 (01:06:22):
We can't hear your dinger no more.

Speaker 4 (01:06:25):
That's good. No one needs to hear the dinger. So
the smoking ape says, how is the seventy three hundred outdated?

Speaker 10 (01:06:32):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (01:06:33):
I agree with Abe.

Speaker 1 (01:06:34):
How and what continue to date outdated?

Speaker 4 (01:06:39):
It just needs to be I get better.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
If you were to put a seven to ten and
a seventy three hundred right next to each other, you're
gonna get better signal processing from the seventy seventy ten.
Then you do the seventy three hundred.

Speaker 9 (01:06:52):
You gotta know how to operate for radios.

Speaker 4 (01:06:54):
I know how to operate the radio. Video, you have
no not an all right exactly, here's the reality, your son,
how about here? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (01:07:07):
But here's the reality is that peopleople aren't changing their
their radios like they're changing their cell phones, right, Like
that's very people are they have? Like I'm content with
my my my nine fifties people. You know, somebody else
might be content with their their G ninety.

Speaker 4 (01:07:25):
You know, a.

Speaker 10 (01:07:31):
Man, you're still getting called up for that.

Speaker 4 (01:07:32):
Eh, it will never end. I don't even on that
radio anymore, checked into my net, so it will never end.

Speaker 1 (01:07:44):
In my notoriety, my operating radios. In the check it's
all outcome, But in the mobile it's all.

Speaker 10 (01:07:53):
So.

Speaker 9 (01:07:54):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:07:55):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:07:56):
Hey, if you were to put I had the pleasure
and he head is seven ten out doing Poto the
other day and listening to the seven ten versus what
I remember of the seventy three hundred, I could tell
a difference just because of the already the signal coming out.

Speaker 4 (01:08:11):
So you're going to make more contacts. Done is what
you're talking.

Speaker 2 (01:08:14):
You're going to be able to hear better, hear more.
You can notch out ship better, you can just just
the receive side of it.

Speaker 4 (01:08:23):
Is so much. Okay, so what better to opt the manipula?
So what your young kids are telling me?

Speaker 10 (01:08:28):
You want?

Speaker 4 (01:08:29):
You want armchair copy. You don't want to have to like.

Speaker 2 (01:08:33):
No, I want I want a radio that has the
capability built inside where if I have to pull a
signal out of the noise, I can adjust filters. I
can adjust my AF and RF game do that now on.
But it doesn't do it as good as the newer
radios do. It's just it's just your computer that you
built fifteen years ago. Yeah, it'll st just like like

(01:08:57):
your computer that that you got on your desk right now.

Speaker 4 (01:09:01):
As well.

Speaker 12 (01:09:03):
Hey, I ain rupped a second.

Speaker 1 (01:09:07):
My god, somebody.

Speaker 10 (01:09:11):
Because when Joe breck out hare, I didn't hear what
you say. What can somebody? Can somebody tell me when
you got hair? I'm like, I was like zooming in.
I was like, what's that wig on his head?

Speaker 4 (01:09:26):

Speaker 10 (01:09:54):
Hey, how's our pool doing there?

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
Shane, Uh, fifty three percent yes, so far of the
people police, I would need to click on so eighty
seven eighty seven votes, So eighty seven out of one
hundred and twenty three said yes they have bought a
new radio the.

Speaker 4 (01:10:12):
Last Yeah, but that's going to be I'm my guess
that's going to be a very wide range of what
what is your rig on? Hunter wat rig to a
q R P rate that boy oh boy a.

Speaker 10 (01:10:28):
Crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:10:28):
That's a lot of radio and w A going on
right now.

Speaker 10 (01:10:33):
Do you guys think that's you think that that's across
the board that eighty fifty and Ham radio operators by
a bought a new regular the last twelve months?

Speaker 4 (01:10:41):
Yeah, I did.

Speaker 2 (01:10:43):
I mean this is a small data set, but I'm
sure that we can depressive could extrapolate that information out.

Speaker 9 (01:10:52):
Y'all run out of things to say, let's get tape
and uh littleut live.

Speaker 12 (01:11:02):
So it's so so just not to go back.

Speaker 10 (01:11:05):
But so step by area is just stopping the product line, right,
They're not going out of.

Speaker 3 (01:11:09):
Business, They're just stopping the consumer side.

Speaker 10 (01:11:14):
Maybe maybe a client. It can also to consider it's
the it's the customer service that is, it's just taking
like you know, like it's easier to deal with larger
contracts for customer service h than like one contract. Yeah,
it's easier to deal with one contract, a large contract,

(01:11:36):
but one with customer service. It is to deal with
a lot of contracts doing multiple service. And maybe that
that could be potentially it because you guys were talking
about like you know, if you're already manufacturing and you're
doing it, why and it could be just the resources
that takes support that industry, that that market chair you
know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:11:57):
What you just mostons you're a businessmaning what what what
you just said?

Speaker 5 (01:12:03):
Maybe with the government stuff, they know how many antennas
they can do, they don't want to maybe increase, maybe
they don't want to lay off. It's a better business
plan for for the company because they can look at
trends where they're going in the industry versus if it's
if it's I think maybe maybe a little bit up
and down. Maybe it's what's the word down, it's not stable.

Speaker 10 (01:12:26):
At the same time, relying on one client can destroy
your business if you ever lose that right, absolutely, that's
que viable so so that's the flip side is that
and you're more potentially it could be more at unless
there's a long term contract designed, you can be at
more risk to being you know, negatively affected if you
lose that customer. There's a lot of people in different

(01:12:48):
industries who build based on one customer. They grow their
business and then they lose that contract and then they're done,
they go belly up, you know, so diversity of strang
But but could be that it's just because if you
think about it, like if you're doing R and D
and stuff into products, UH, well, I guess like flex
radio they service the military, then they they bring that

(01:13:08):
over to the UH. I think it's more probably more
along the lines of customer service. The R and D
is done for the bigger contracts and then and then
everybody else gains the benefits of that as they're permitted to.
So I don't think there would be direct costs R
and D potentially to the consumer line, because it's all
the outflow of their you know, the research that they've
done for their military contracts along the lines of.

Speaker 5 (01:13:34):
A lot of people don't understand the cost almost just
the cost of R and D alone now.

Speaker 2 (01:13:39):
That's covered under your government contract though, but you can't
take that right. Technology is developed, right, but they bring
over the technology that was developed during the R and
D process for the for the military or the government.

(01:14:00):
They bring that over into a Joe BRT you're making
me dizzy son, So they bring that over into a
a commercial a personal use case.

Speaker 4 (01:14:10):
So there's no.

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
Yeah to the consumers, so that they there's the work's
done and paid for by the government, and we get
to benefit from the R and D that they that
the government paid for indirect And.

Speaker 10 (01:14:25):
That's half the problem with that's half the problem with
the military contracts, right, It's like they put in the
effort after they get the contract most of the time, right,
point right. But also R and D is R and
D is also a tax like right off Like in Canada,
you can do tax right for your fiscal taxes with
R and D. Right, So it's right, it's even if

(01:14:46):
you don't have military contracts, you can do R and D.
But it's very expensive. But that's I wouldn't I wouldn't
I would I would assume that the investment in R
and D for the consumer lines is very minimal compared
to the military and it's just an offshoot. I don't
think there's any your investment. Probably for the consumer line, they.

Speaker 4 (01:15:04):
Need a different case for it. Well, the technology, I
think don't mean.

Speaker 2 (01:15:09):
Cases in Shille that they put all the stuff that
they develop for the military side in.

Speaker 10 (01:15:14):
Yeah, well you have to look at what is also
like what can be classified as R and D. I
think like technology, I've been involved in it. I've been
audited for R and D before and had to justify it.
And it's not about necessarily the four It's like a patent, right,
Like you can't just you can't just put a you
can't just put a like a compass on a on

(01:15:34):
a on a measuring tape and patent that, right. It
has to somehow correlate and so the same thing with
R and D. I think it's more along the lines
of technological advancements, whether it's developing new materials and stuff.
But you know, reintegrating a product that you developed into
a different packaging doesn't necessarily just like qualify as R

(01:15:56):
and D. If that makes sense, you know what I mean. Like,
so let's let's say let's say the military line they
use a certain time of material and then in the
consumer line. They use a cheaper uh that I don't
think would qualify as R and D, but you know,
like uh, the actual technology to achieve the kind of
with the you know, Mike.

Speaker 3 (01:16:16):
For those of the podcast, Mike s is that did
not have R and D rant on my bido card tonight.

Speaker 10 (01:16:22):

Speaker 1 (01:20:34):
You remember us talking about the whole ass HM radio,
I mean the AM radio tower station that would disappeared

something for AM radio station.

Speaker 4 (01:20:51):
Remember that that's on Facebook anymore?

Speaker 4 (01:21:06):
His ears.

Speaker 1 (01:21:09):
Anyway, so you got antenna's coming up, the towers missing,
and then so I thought it was a good idea,
So I buy an a tie antenna from GM over
over here in Alabama. You know the guy on coffee
and hown radio?

Speaker 10 (01:21:27):
Are you trusting that I gave him a ch That's
where you went wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:21:34):
Gave him a chance, and uh I told him. I said, hey,
just bring it to day and I'll get it at date.

Speaker 10 (01:21:41):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (01:21:42):
He's like, man, that's six weeks from now. I said,
don't worry about it, just bring it to day. Two
days later, I get a track of notification out of
you know, he's trying to do a good hearted thing.
He didn't want me to wait six weeks, so he
sent it to me up his It never made it
out of Alabama, according to the tracking. Now so.

Speaker 2 (01:22:05):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 9 (01:22:06):
Open up a case for lost at him and they
closed it the next day. Yes, just lost.

Speaker 12 (01:22:18):
I don't think he ever sent it.

Speaker 4 (01:22:20):
I was gonna say, now, who gets reimbursed for it?

Speaker 10 (01:22:24):
Are you take insurance?

Speaker 1 (01:22:27):
I don't know whatever pirate ship does for you.

Speaker 10 (01:22:31):

Speaker 9 (01:22:34):
Yep?

Speaker 4 (01:22:35):

Speaker 10 (01:22:38):
Gosh, go to the UPS store and ask them that's
what I'm in Alabama for two weeks looking for.

Speaker 4 (01:22:46):
I told him.

Speaker 5 (01:22:46):
Walk in with a clipboard, Molton, just walking looking like
you know, the clipboard makes you official, you have.

Speaker 10 (01:22:54):
The hair makes them look goofy.

Speaker 14 (01:23:02):
I'm just jealous, okay, like you want jealous tonight, I
told my youngest son, He's like, I don't want to
look like you, daddy.

Speaker 10 (01:23:12):
He was like, you know, oh, He's like, skips, just
just get the generation my son. Like a while back,
he's like, I only shampooed my hair once a week.
I'm like, why that's disgusting. He's like, because I don't
want to lose it like you. I said, don't worry,
I'll grow my back hair and make it with too
bad for you.

Speaker 4 (01:23:32):
So when you lose your hair, like, oh my god,
that's a buzz kill.

Speaker 10 (01:23:46):
Now you look good, Joe Brad, I'm just bugging. I'm jealous.

Speaker 1 (01:23:50):
No, I mean I haven't. I haven't had hair in
ten years. And I went and got my first haircut,
and I remembered why I haven't had hair? Yeh, Matt,
how much money does a guy that gets his haircutter
two to three weeks spend on haircuts a year?

Speaker 4 (01:24:07):
Oh jeez?

Speaker 9 (01:24:08):
Yeah, so yeah, I'm probably gonna.

Speaker 1 (01:24:10):
Go back to the Turmers. So it's temporary.

Speaker 4 (01:24:14):
Why I get my done once a week.

Speaker 9 (01:24:16):
That's great. I'm glad you can afford that.

Speaker 4 (01:24:19):
No, it's not about it.

Speaker 9 (01:24:21):
It's it's it's been ten thousand dollars a year on
a hurricane.

Speaker 4 (01:24:24):
I don't spend no ten thousand dollars a year do
you spend on a haurricut? I don't even spend one
thousand dollars a year. I go to I go to
a real I go to a barber man. I don't
go to this fool fool stuff. And what's he charging
I don't want to say on screen.

Speaker 1 (01:24:39):
Okay, because yeah, you spent over a thousand dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:24:42):
No, it's way under. I'll tell you what. It's way under.
It's way under twenty dollars. Okay. It's a price of
it's part. It's a price of a cigar, the price
of a cigar. You can't get a haircut here now
for under twenty bucks. Yeah, it's it's under twenty bucks.
And that's with the tip. That's with the tip. So

(01:25:03):
if I can look tip, mine's twenty bucks. If there's
if there's any possible way of making this, making this
look a little bit nice, yeah, highest.

Speaker 1 (01:25:14):
That's still five hundred and twenty dollars a year.

Speaker 4 (01:25:16):
Okay, So what then? What else am I going to do?

Speaker 10 (01:25:20):
Habread Joe Brett's advocating to have a side piece. Who's
a hairdresser? That way, you get your haircut for free.

Speaker 4 (01:25:27):
That's what you want.

Speaker 10 (01:25:31):
Hair? Is it?

Speaker 4 (01:25:32):
No, she don't cut hair, she's that's.

Speaker 10 (01:25:37):
Why my wife does. My wife just takes the buzzer
and yep, a lot of these.

Speaker 7 (01:25:44):
Hair mine used to do. She got tired of cleaning
it up.

Speaker 4 (01:25:48):
So I thought about that.

Speaker 10 (01:25:50):
Hold on, how about Joe Brett? How the hell are
you complaining what haircut prices? And you go buy a
new radio and a new intenda or use antenna.

Speaker 9 (01:25:59):
That's different, I mean, Daniel, that's different.

Speaker 4 (01:26:02):
Oh, look at her in the background, she knows it.
And you bought a camper, Oh gosh, big spender camper
two years ago.

Speaker 10 (01:26:10):
You are You are in the transport industry, aren't you?

Speaker 4 (01:26:13):
And the camper Wait, and the camper is not just
a camper. Then there's all of the peripherals that go
along with it, the PM that goes am I right
or wrong?

Speaker 6 (01:26:22):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:26:22):
Then you gotta buy the barbecue. My point is this,
everything has a price tag, and we all, we all
choose where to put our money. That's all. That's all
it is.

Speaker 9 (01:26:33):
You know that camper almost could kiss my ass this year?

Speaker 4 (01:26:37):
God, well what happened with that?

Speaker 12 (01:26:41):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (01:26:42):
I don't know what tags are like in your state, but.

Speaker 1 (01:26:46):
In Mississippi, and tell your vehicle or recreational vehicle, whatever
you tagging and becomes ten years or older, you're gonna
you're gonna pays.

Speaker 4 (01:27:00):
It's like, is like two pages on the camp because
I just had to pay for the tags on Dana's card.

Speaker 7 (01:27:09):
It was one hundred and sixty bucks this year, sixteen.

Speaker 4 (01:27:18):
Years old. You probably need a camper. Probably needed pillows.
You should get yourself when those tank when those tank
radio pillows for inside the camper, for the camper the camper, Yeah,
I would if I had a camper, I'd have a
tank radio, caa pillow. You do have a camper?

Speaker 5 (01:27:38):
Called no, But that's my point though. We all pick
and choose where to spend our money and where we're
gonna put it.

Speaker 7 (01:27:47):
That's that's the bottom line. That's some of us order
groceries for pickup.

Speaker 5 (01:27:53):
Yes instead of just going to the store or waiting
till tomorrow or got or went there yesterday, or at
least take the camera with you.

Speaker 4 (01:28:02):
If you're gonna go into Walmart, at least take the
camera with you. That would have been fun. I don't know,
like molten did you need that? That that fan in
that room? Yes, well my guess is the fan the
fan above you right now? That that Ceily fan? Did

(01:28:23):
you need that?

Speaker 10 (01:28:23):
You got two of them?

Speaker 5 (01:28:25):
Okay, but it's for a reason. It looks nice and
it came with a price tag right.

Speaker 4 (01:28:31):
Now.

Speaker 7 (01:28:32):
Yeah, so here's the problem with your theory there what
his wife wanted it, so he bought it.

Speaker 4 (01:28:38):
Okay, happy wife, happy wife, happy life. Yep, still comes.

Speaker 10 (01:28:42):
You know, do you know how transactions work? Right? If
I want to get a radio, I have to buy
the way something. That's the way it works.

Speaker 1 (01:28:51):
Remember that time you got the brand machine.

Speaker 4 (01:28:54):
I was gonna say, how much bread is she made
for you? Oh?

Speaker 10 (01:28:59):
Lot? You know the worst part about how many bread
is it goes so fast it's cheaper to buy store
bought because you make so much homemade bread.

Speaker 12 (01:29:08):
Yeah, like a loaf doesn't even last a day?

Speaker 10 (01:29:13):
Well how much?

Speaker 4 (01:29:13):
How many? How many people do you have at the house?

Speaker 10 (01:29:16):
Now? Six?

Speaker 4 (01:29:18):
Holy?

Speaker 10 (01:29:18):
You got six people in and there?

Speaker 12 (01:29:20):
I have four kids?

Speaker 4 (01:29:22):
Are paying rent?

Speaker 10 (01:29:24):
Yet?

Speaker 4 (01:29:25):
Was that? Do the kids pay rent?

Speaker 10 (01:29:28):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
I ain't got one still living with the house full time.

Speaker 10 (01:29:35):
Dude. We're in that crisis right now where it's like
you don't you know when the kids, like you know,
the kids, they start to be like, maybe I want
to move out, and it's like, it's like being rejected
by that girl. You know, it's like is it me?
Like really, my wife's popping her head around the corner.

Speaker 12 (01:29:54):
It's true, eight, it is exactly it.

Speaker 10 (01:29:57):
It's like and it's like that first heartbreak, like you
you know, the the high school dance where you walk
up to the girl. You know, all the guys are
on one side and all the girls in the other,
and they think that they're cool. They're just swaying and
you're trying to build up the courage and you walk
across the floor.

Speaker 12 (01:30:11):
You're like, hey, you want to dance. She's like no,
and you're like wow, wow.

Speaker 10 (01:30:16):
You know that heartbreak, you know, that first breakup kind
of that's how it is when your first kid is like,
I think I want to move out, and it's like.

Speaker 4 (01:30:23):
Is it me?

Speaker 10 (01:30:24):
Is the meat?

Speaker 12 (01:30:25):
You know, and it's it's tough and you're not only
and you're not just so it's true.

Speaker 4 (01:30:31):
It's true. It's true. Most is right because it's and
you're not only only buying bread and supporting bread. But
you're paying more utilities, you're paying the internet, you're paying
you're paying everything. Man, I got five here, I got
five at the house.

Speaker 10 (01:30:44):
Man.

Speaker 15 (01:30:45):
Yeah, but I think it's different like it sorry, go ahead, Yeah,
like one of them in college. So when college is
out she comes back home.

Speaker 10 (01:30:56):
That's different.

Speaker 5 (01:30:58):
Yeah, but that's it's bittersweet because I know what's gonna
happen in August. We're gonna drop two and it's gonna
get quiet, and I'm going to cry for an hour maybe,
And then my.

Speaker 1 (01:31:10):
Oldest is married. My second oldest just got him his
own place.

Speaker 9 (01:31:15):
He's moved out.

Speaker 1 (01:31:17):
So in the the youngest girl, she's in college, in
and out, and then we got the sixteen year old boy.
This you know, I don't know, he probably won't ever believe.

Speaker 10 (01:31:26):
But okay, Joe Brad, I got a serious question for you.
All right, So okay, moving out of the house is
one thing, and then having your kid saying they want
to marry a girl is a whole nother thing. How
the hell do you deal with that as a dad? Like,
I don't know, man, Like, it's just like that's tough.

(01:31:48):
I had Sorry, Now this is becoming doctor Phil with
doctor Joe brad here. But I'm dead serious because like
moving out of the house is one thing, and then
like watching your kids, like like I feel old. I'm forty,
My oldest is twenty twenty years old. How like I'm
not ready for this stuff, and like this is crazy
to me.

Speaker 4 (01:32:07):
It's like what well make Getting married is one thing?
But where they? Are they going to live at your house?
Or are they going to live somewhere else?

Speaker 10 (01:32:15):
Hell?

Speaker 4 (01:32:16):
No here.

Speaker 10 (01:32:17):
This is what I told my son. I was my son.
I took my son away the other week. I said, listen,
it's one thing to smell the rose is another one
to pick it right, So like smell the rose is
all you want to Just don't pluck the flour, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:32:30):
I'm sorry Bolton's dad advice. This should be the Father's
Day show something. Why pay for the cow? Can't get them?
You can't get that milk for free. It comes with
a price. I don't know, just I.

Speaker 1 (01:32:48):
Don't know both of that. I just let him do
the thing and try to give him some pointers on
how not to get divorced and how not to go
to jail on this.

Other nets because she's too hot.

Speaker 4 (01:36:46):
So yeah, I'm gonna use that one. I like that one.

Speaker 10 (01:36:54):
I like that one. Now.

Speaker 4 (01:37:00):
Frank says, next episode, Moulton will sleep on the couch
for a week.

Speaker 12 (01:37:05):
Oh, I've done that voluntarily.

Speaker 10 (01:37:10):
Well. So I was just I was working in Halifax,
if you know where that is, East coast, and so
I was like, I'm going to rent an airbnb because
I took my oldest son, Josh with me. I brought
him to work in the Halifax. This was last week,
I think the week before, the week before into last week.
I got back last Wednesday and we rented an airbnb

(01:37:32):
because I was like, you know what, my son deserves
an own room, so it'd be easier cheaper with an
Airbnb rented. We show up at like one o'clock in
the morning because our flight was a late flight.

Speaker 8 (01:37:42):
Get in.

Speaker 10 (01:37:43):
I take one look at the bed and I sleep
on the couch. I slept on the couch for the
whole week. It's like they're those ikea thin, cheap ike
e beds, and it was just like no way, and
the couch was super comfy couch.

Speaker 7 (01:37:59):
There you go.

Speaker 4 (01:38:01):
Bail a hey A bail a hey would have been
been much more comfortable.

Speaker 10 (01:38:04):
I think, oh yeah, for sure, for sure. It was brutal.

Speaker 5 (01:38:10):
Isle. That is your son going to go into business
with you? You think, or we were, or any other siblings.

Speaker 4 (01:38:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 10 (01:38:19):
They all work like in the summertime, they all work
for me.

Speaker 5 (01:38:23):
No, but but I'm talking, Hey, I want to learn
the business. I want to be the new tycoon. When
you decide to retire.

Speaker 4 (01:38:30):
I want to. I want to. I want the crown.

Speaker 10 (01:38:33):
No I don't think so, No, No, I don't think so.

Speaker 5 (01:38:39):
See, I always wish that is that is that how
it is For a guy who did who didn't have
that opportunity, I would think it would be great.

Speaker 4 (01:38:46):
You know what I'm saying if.

Speaker 10 (01:38:49):
I think first of all, First, usually like a family business,
it's a third generation that runs it into the ground.
So it'd probably be healthier. The first generation works hard,
the second generation sees it and they they emulate that,
but the third generation don't see the struggle that it

(01:39:11):
took the first two generations, and they just benefit from it.
And so typically that yeah, that's usually that's usually the rundown.
But typically the third generation destroys the primary business. The
other side of it is it's not all glory, right,
It's it's it's it's being a business. It's it's there's

(01:39:33):
a battle. Right, So, like, if it's not something they
truly want to do, then it's not what they should do.
And so if they have a passion for something else,
they should do that. It's a lot of work, it's
not easy, you know. Like uh, and so like if
like I know one of my daughters is thinking about
going into medicine. My oldest son wants to go into

(01:39:57):
heavy deedesel mechanics, and so they should do that, you know,
and until they decide otherwise.

Speaker 4 (01:40:03):
Yeah, follow your passion, absolutely, follow your pa.

Speaker 10 (01:40:05):
That's it. That's the best thing to do. So I'm
more than happy for that with whatever they do.

Speaker 4 (01:40:15):
So I told my kids.

Speaker 5 (01:40:17):
I told my kids already, I said, you're going into college,
You're starting over here to all of a sudden, you
may do one of these.

Speaker 4 (01:40:24):
Things, maybe still in the general field, maybe, but all
of a sudden, you're going to see yourself all of
a sudden, because college is going to expand what you
don't even know already, and it's going to show you
some opportunities. And that's what it's all about. You got
to have opportunities.

Speaker 10 (01:40:41):
And there's no shame starting one place and moving to another.

Speaker 4 (01:40:44):
Absolutely not. Hey I think we all did we all? Did?

Speaker 10 (01:40:48):
I know?

Speaker 1 (01:40:49):
I did?

Speaker 4 (01:40:50):
I put twenty two years into one business. I said
I I had enough. I had enough. Let me go
do something else, you know, Yeah, it just it just takes.
But that leap of faith, is that what it's called.

Speaker 5 (01:41:02):
That leap of faith is sometimes can be hard, it's scary,
but if you got if you've got good people around you,
and course timing is everything, make it make it so.

Speaker 10 (01:41:12):
Yeah, Well it's the fear of the unknown, I think
that's the biggest limiting factor, right, the fear of the
fear of like stability, that instability, you know, instability right, correct,
and so like you know, if you can resolve that
you should you don't like And most of the time,
people it's not even a question of there's anything really

(01:41:35):
on the line, there's nothing really be jeopardized. It's usually
just a question of being scared, you know what I mean, Like,
I don't know, but everybody's situation is different. But I
just I hope my kids just follow their passion and
I'm happy and support them in what they do, you know.
But it's a tough it's a weird tirement. It's a

(01:41:57):
weird time when your kids are no longer three years
old and it's spreading their own roots. So yeah, man,
what is Debbie Downer? Like? This is crazy?

Speaker 12 (01:42:08):
Why why are we talking like shit about radio companies?

Speaker 4 (01:42:12):
I need an ice cream right now to get Also,
have you molto have you tried the new Blizzer flavors
for the season.

Speaker 10 (01:42:25):
I'm not about change. I'm like, no, I'm consistent. I
don't change. I go to whatever. If I go to
a restaurant and I like the meal, I will eat
that same meal every time we go to the restaurant.

Speaker 5 (01:42:37):
You don't even need to see the menu. You don't
even need to see what the specials are for tonight.
Just give me my my regular.

Speaker 9 (01:42:46):
Just brame me whatever you I have no idea what.

Speaker 10 (01:42:51):
I did that. My wife and I went for breakfast
on Saturday morning together. I got this diner and the
lady comes out, She's like, you don't need a menu
A I'm like, I'll just take one because my wife
needs one. But I always order the same thing always,
and so I'm not a creature change.

Speaker 5 (01:43:12):
I think breakfast is a lot easier. I think we
all maybe have one to three different plates in our
head that we can go with our go tos. That's it,
there's one, what's your one? What's your one?

Speaker 10 (01:43:26):
Western Aline with hash browns. The hash browns have to
have the iteans, the grilled dinions, and then sometimes white toasts,
and sometimes I'll order a side of bacon, our side
of sausage. Okay, no cheese on the albut.

Speaker 4 (01:43:44):
See, I can go with your eggs, a French toast
or pancakes. That's it.

Speaker 5 (01:43:51):
But it's in categories, so it all depends. But see,
dinners are different because I like to mix.

Speaker 4 (01:43:56):
Up the dinners. I like to mix it up a
little bit. Kind of is a variety, so I don't
feel like I'm stuck in some rut, you know. You know,
I don't know.

Speaker 10 (01:44:07):
There's like four times. There's like three things when you
order a meal at a restaurant. The first thing is
is it enough? Like how much food am I actually
getting on my plate? Because you know, we always think
about those like movies or the shows where they have
like the posh restaurants and they order a plate and
it's like a little, you know, square thing in the
middle of the plate. I want a full plate, right,

(01:44:29):
So if I look at a menu and I'm like,
I look at an item, I'm like, is that I'm
gonna be satisfied with that? And then there always has
to be meat or you know, and nothing crazy, no,
nothing extravagant or like you know, exotic. Although I have
to say I enjoy like Indian food Chinese food, all

(01:44:52):
that stuff. I was. We were on a job site
in Halifax and it's like half the crew for the contractors,
like all are like Indian and there's like fourteen of them.
And I went up to them and I said to
the main guy, I said, hey, your boss was talking
with me, and he said that we voted and tomorrow

(01:45:15):
is a special day. We're calling it Taste of the Nations,
and you guys had to bring buttered chicken for the
rest of us so we can experience your food. And
so he's like, only if you like spicy food. I
like I like spicy food. So the next morning I
went up to him, I said, I didn't bring a lunch.
Did you bring lunch? He goes no, Try to get

(01:45:36):
him to bring us some nice Indian food and he didn't.

Speaker 5 (01:45:41):
What's so, what's what's good Indian food? I've never had
Indian food. So if you were to bring me to
a restaurant and you were to say, don I'm going
to order for.

Speaker 4 (01:45:49):
You, what do you order?

Speaker 12 (01:45:53):
Well, you can't go wrong with the buttered chicken. Butter
chicken is good, all right?

Speaker 5 (01:45:59):
You mean chicken like, is it grilled, is it barbecued?
Or is it you know, how are we doing this
chicken and bacon? How do they cook butter chicken? Is
it like sautate or like how do they cook it
butter chicken?

Speaker 4 (01:46:19):
And is it gonna and is it gonna come out hot?
Like like barbecue potato chips? You know, Wyo.

Speaker 12 (01:46:26):
It's a smooth taste.

Speaker 1 (01:46:27):
It's a smooth Okay, it's buttered.

Speaker 10 (01:46:31):
Listen, I'm not.

Speaker 4 (01:46:35):
Somebody could push like how the hey you.

Speaker 1 (01:46:38):
Get butter and barbecued in the same thought.

Speaker 4 (01:46:41):
Well, no, because the chicken it was a chicken.

Speaker 7 (01:46:44):
It was a chicken deep fried in butter and call
it barbecue.

Speaker 4 (01:46:48):
Yeah, but but I can't eat anything hot.

Speaker 5 (01:46:56):
That's why I'm not going a spicy spicy You're okay,
I should get correct spicy. So if they're going to
add anything that that's going to make my eyes water
and my nose run, I'm in trouble.

Speaker 4 (01:47:10):
I don't want to be the I don't want to
be that all right?

Speaker 10 (01:47:17):
Nine bucks?

Speaker 12 (01:47:19):
How much does it cost for a blizzard for you guys?
Nine bucks?

Speaker 4 (01:47:26):
I don't think blizzards are nine dollars over here in Connecticut.

Speaker 10 (01:47:30):
Yeah they are.

Speaker 4 (01:47:32):
I don't know. I think they're four four fifty five bucks.

Speaker 1 (01:47:36):
I don't know you see the size CuPy, guys, I
mean that tells you what do you get? Like the
large He's got a big, big coat. See they got
that strawberry cheesecake flavor.

Speaker 4 (01:47:48):
I liked that. I tried that. I tried that last month.

Speaker 10 (01:47:52):
That was pretty good.

Speaker 4 (01:47:53):
It was different. I liked it. Carl brother, take care,
be safe.

Speaker 10 (01:48:04):
All right, Well, boys, I'll log off. Let you guys
do the outr and I'm going to enjoy my DQ
blizzard while I watch you. Guys.

Speaker 1 (01:48:14):
Let's good to see you, and thank you for blizzard
before the show.

Speaker 10 (01:48:19):
Yeah, I can see too. Sorry, we talked about everything
else besides for hand radio.

Speaker 9 (01:48:26):
Okay, man, here's the phone of life, dude, understand.

Speaker 10 (01:48:32):
Yeah. Oh by the way, I'm loving these AI videos
on online. They're hilarious. Watch them.

Speaker 4 (01:48:41):
Yes, Cary the you got the babies, You got the
babies talking like adults. Oh yeah, you got the guy.
I you know what I like. And I want to
do this for a clubhouse. If somebody can do this
for us, unless we could do it ourselves. I want
to I want to be able to walk.

Speaker 5 (01:48:58):
I want to want to like like I'm walking down
the street and there's that big muscle bound izzo with
something behind me that's just as badass.

Speaker 4 (01:49:08):
I love those. I think those are great.

Speaker 7 (01:49:13):
Is Oh, be careful what you ask for. Well, I
know who's in our right on.

Speaker 4 (01:49:19):
I gona give you the exact opposite. Seventy three guys
buy them all seven.

Speaker 7 (01:49:26):
Yeah, So a large blizzard at thirteen seventy Boston Post
Road is six dollars and fifty nine cents.

Speaker 4 (01:49:36):
Seven bucks. He's saying nine bucks. See, and he's paying
nine bucks.

Speaker 7 (01:49:40):
And that's the one down the street from you. Is though,
of course, what are the taxes on it?

Speaker 4 (01:49:47):
Never mind? Oh but still, why is she paying almost
ten dollars for a blizzard? That's crazy because it's can
that's Canada.

Speaker 1 (01:49:56):
They've always paid more, you know, compared.

Speaker 5 (01:49:59):
To it's ice cream. Yeah, it come ice cream comes.
Ice cream comes from cows, and they have cows up there.
It's very simple.

Speaker 9 (01:50:10):
Yeah, but he goes in the rolling end of the
cow to get it.

Speaker 4 (01:50:15):
Yeah, he's gotta arm the thing to get it. That's
your payback for the hair. Alright, let's see what Let's
see what a blizzard is down here by may see
Steve I'm gonna stop in. I'm gonna stop in tomorrow.
Seven dollars and nineteen cents here.

Speaker 1 (01:50:35):
For large.

Speaker 4 (01:50:37):
For the large, I'm about fifty.

Speaker 5 (01:50:39):
I don't think they're that expensive because my normally I
get my medium vanilla cone.

Speaker 4 (01:50:45):
Mm hmm, it's four dollars and fifty one cents. I
throw the five dollar bill, the tip goes into the
tip jar, or the balance goes into the tip jar. Whatever.
You got a five ball, which you know, which is
probably expensive for a vanilla a medium sized vanilla call
when you think about it.

Speaker 1 (01:51:02):
But it's also that's why I like going to the Windys.
You get a little key chain, you get the little
miniature Frosty's for free for the rest of the year.

Speaker 7 (01:51:12):
But now, see Joe, the Windy's around here, just like
the freak of McDonald's. The damn frosty machine's never working.
But they'll sell you the keychain. They'll sell you the
damn keychain. But then like, we don't we don't have
that flavor.

Speaker 4 (01:51:26):
Sorry, what's this keychain thing that I'm not aware of?
Talk to me about this. What's this opportunity for me,
opportunity to make you even more of a fat Boy
for the Fat Boy Radio Club. Seriously, what's this keychain thing?
Is that just a nickname for you?

Speaker 1 (01:51:41):
This little key chain. It looks like a little Frosty Yeah.
I think it's a different colored cup every year or whatever.
But anyway, and you'll get a free like little. I mean,
it's a mini size.

Speaker 4 (01:51:53):
It's a shot it's a shot size. So do I
got to show it like when I go up to
the window to pay for it or I And.

Speaker 1 (01:52:01):
If you play and if you do right, even after
the New year starts and your key chain's expired, you
just hold it from a distance as you're walking up
and they'll be like, all right, I'll fix it because
they can't see that.

Speaker 4 (01:52:16):
Do they limit you one per per visit per day
or no?

Speaker 1 (01:52:20):
I ain't never try to get more than one, fat ass.

Speaker 7 (01:52:22):
I was gonna say, if you got more than one
Windy's around, just hit up the different stories.

Speaker 4 (01:52:29):
I'm just no, I know, because we got one near
where I work and I can hit one. Well it's
out of the way. But I mean, for a Frosty's,
nothing is really going on it the way from so
but the problem with it is you'll be finished with
the frosty before you get out of the parking lot.
Yeah that's small, that's true. Yeah, that that is true.
And then and then you're gonna want a bigger one. Yeah, yep.

Speaker 7 (01:52:53):
So all right, hour and fifty three minutes and I
see a bunch of people saying the pillows are calling
their name, so we can wrap this thing up.

Speaker 4 (01:53:04):
I'm done with Joe brest On. Sure, all right, Joe,
what you got coming up?

Speaker 1 (01:53:09):
Man? I ain't got that coming up? But another week
we're looking for this a toss in Alabama.

Speaker 4 (01:53:13):
Man, find me a section of round twenty five while
you're there.

Speaker 9 (01:53:18):
Yeah, I'll probably find it forty five.

Speaker 7 (01:53:24):
