and pineapple from Domino's A rating of two out of
five slices.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Kyle Peterson, what has happened to everybody?

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Kyle here back again with another episode of The Kyle
Peterson Show and as usual, joined by my wife Angie.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Angie say hello, Hello, Hello.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Angie, thank you for coming back for another episode of
of course the Kyle Peterson Show. And Angie, this is
our fourth episode, episode number four. We've been the curve
most podcasts. I have researched this in most podcasts, last
three episodes. This is our fourth episode, so we had.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
A good run. We'd beat the usual one.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
No, we'll see, but of course we are in episode
number four. Thanks to everybody that's been watching and listening
to the podcast, people ranking, reviewing all that fun stuff.
We really appreciate it, right, Angie. Angie appreciates it the most.
Angie's been signing on autographs at the grocery store lately.
It's been a wild time for her. A little dose
of fame instead of just having.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Me to it all.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Angie's doing a lot of the hard work right here.
But first, before we get into stuff, let's get into
a little bit of housekeeping here. I wanted to say
to everybody thank you for the brand new book and
it is hitting stores Amazon, Barnes, Noble as we speak,
hardcover softcover edition available. It is a clete guide to
the ECW original San Francisco Toymakers, by yours truly. And
if you do want an autograph copy from me, you

(01:51):
can reach out to me the Kyle Peterson Joygmail dot com,
social media, whatever you want to do, and if you
do buy one for me, I do have a special
bookmark at an autograph do whatever you want. Also, well
supplies last Kyle Peterson show sticker.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
So appreciate the support over there.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
And I gotta plug it.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
I was gonna say that, Angie. You know why I
gotta plug the book because nobody else will.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
I was gonna steal your line.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
You do you always want to steal my lines.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
But Angie has even signed a book or two along
the way. I my dad, so reach out if you
want him to. And I have a whole stack of
books coming tomorrow as I'm filming this.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
So I'll have a lot of those for sale.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
I'm sure I'll put a post up on social media,
of course, the usual social media outlets, so thanks everybody
for that. Also want to plug YouTube channel memberships a
new entry into what we do right here, there is
a YouTube memberships. If Patreon's not for you for whatever reason,
you can check out the YouTube memberships and you can
support the channel.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
That way.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
You get early access to this audio video cast, much
earlier than traditional YouTube. I guess you also get early
access to all the videos I do as well. So
another way to support the channel if that is your thing.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
And one way that.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Really supports the channel, Angie, I am told is by
rating and reviewing the podcast, and I wanted to give
a special shout out to two people that have rated the.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
Podcast on Apple there, so I figured.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
I'd read read the reviews here and Angy doesn't even
know anything about this, but I'll read the review here.
It comes from Scott Scott Stokes one favorite toy podcast.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Five stars. How about that?

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Couldn't give six apparently couldn't give ten. It's a five
star rating, but I encourage everybody to rate the review,
rate and review the podcast and we'll read your message
here on here. But it does say Kyle and his
wife Angie the modern macho Man and Elizabeth are such
a fun couple and equally support collecting toys and share
stories along the way. This show is equally fun to

(03:39):
watch on YouTube or four daily videos and thousands of
figure reviews Kyle has done over the years. Give them
one episode and you'll be hooked. One piece of bread
at a time, or a loaf you will enjoy. Oh,
shout out right there, So shout out to Scott Stoke.

Speaker 4 (03:51):
We paid him to put We paid him.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
No that was good, So thank you Scott. And we
also got another one here from Big Tasty Z my
new favorite podcast, Conspiracy No No, No Kyle Peterson Now
is a podcast and I love it.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Oh and Angie too, she is there.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
Ask her a question exactly and if you want to
be the question of the week, ask it to Angie.
We'll have a question of the week here on the
podcast and Angie will run through that as well. But
a lot of housekeeping to start off the podcast here, Angie,
but a lot going on as well. Like I said,
this is our fourth episode can't believe it made it
for our episodes and Angie, a little follow up from
last week's video and audio podcast. Of course, wherever you

(04:31):
like it, audio or video could be. We could have
faces for audio or we could have faces for video,
and you make the choice. But last week we had
a big WrestleMania bet.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
Oh gosh oh.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
So we went through the card.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
That the time and we said who's gonna win and
all that kind of fun stuff, and we're each gonna
have a little bet.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
And Angie, what is your bet for me? If you win?

Speaker 4 (04:50):
Warrior costume? You got to ride the neighborhood on your
electric bite.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
Yep, I gotta wear the Ultimate Warrior costume, which is
no big deal. I usually wear it every weekend. I
will wear the Ultimate Warrior cost I'm Pprias you didn't
say do the video cast podcast in the Warrior costume.
We do that too, but uh, and I've decided Angie,
you're gonna have to wear a special outfit that will
be TPD when we win. So either way, next week,

(05:14):
next week's podcast, we should have an answer to this.
You'll either get to see me or you'll see Angie
in her outfit.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Are you ready for this.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
No, no, oh, it'll be pro It'll be totally approp
nobody's gonna complain. Nobody's gonna complain. I think I think
you'll be fine, though, I think you'll be fine. So
that will be an update next week. Stay tuned to that.
And if you miss last week or the first episode podcast,
check those out. Of course, last piece of a little
bit of housekeeping right here, Angie. This week was spring cleanup.

(05:42):
And I don't know if your guys' neighborhoods have things
like this where you get to clean up anything you
don't want your house anymore. Maybe you got an old
uh an old grill, a grill, a barbecue grill, you
don't want it. Stick it out of the curb. You
got a broken chair, Stick it on the curve. You
got old dollhouses. Guess what, Stick it on the curb.
You gotta palette around your garage, stick it on the curb.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
What else do we got? Flower pots?

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Just random garbage tables, chairs, deck seating. You get the point,
by now, I think, ANGI you think they get the point. Okay, okay,
they get the point. How you can stick anything on
the curb. So I spent my Sunday doing a lot
of that. And of course I was a hard working man,
you know, a hard working man out there on Sunday.
Angie was sitting with her feet up. I think you
were having an Arnold Palmer. If I'm not mistaken, that's

(06:25):
what you were drinking.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Maybe not.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
Angie was at work, but I was cleaning up, moving
some things around, getting ready for spring, doing spring cleanup.
And I had quite the disaster as I had an
old man fall. Oh my god, oh my god.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
Like you were taking a break, not working.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
Ill I was. And that's that's the sad thing is
I got all this stuff.

Speaker 4 (06:41):
You can get it now.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
I got all this stuff moved.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
I got everything cleaned up, got everything moving away. And
then I went and sat in this chair that you
had to have many years ago.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
I bought.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
It's like one of those basket chairs that like hangs
and sets it like an egg and it swings. It's
on a little hook.

Speaker 4 (06:58):
Ye.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
So I said, you know what, boy, I've had a
long day.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
I'm gonna sit down, sit down for a second and
just take a little break, take a load off, take
a little load off, take a siesta.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
That's what I was gonna do. And I sat in
that chair and you weren't even there. Luckily, I don't
think anybody saw this. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
But I sit down in this chair and it immediately
goes backwards, just immediately, and it was like the slowest
motion ever and it just goes back slow, and then bam.
I hit my head on the there's like a nice
circle crossbar around there, and then I hit my head
on the concrete.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
After that, hit my elbow and I was just down
for the count.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
But it it hurt, but it didn't hurt that bad.
I didn't cry. I didn't cry.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
I didn't hurt that but I.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
Behavior, I guess, well, I fell and I fell back,
and I was just looking at the sky and sad
Man's sky is beautiful today, questioned life and the staring
it there, and I'm like, I hope the neighbors aren't
looking out their windows at me right here, and I
don't think they were, but they probably were spying. They're
always spying on you. When you're walking around the bikini
in the backyard the summer, around the pool.

Speaker 4 (08:03):
You're spinding on the neighbor.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
No, she's I don't know. I don't know story that
I don't know. But where was I But I fell.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
I'm staring at the sky. But man, I've banged up
my elbows. My elbows, of course, I'm my poor elbow.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
And I don't know what's worse.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
Is like there was a cross member and it's kind
of curve, and I have a bruise like not on
the back of my head that goes from like the
middle of my ear all the way around my head
to the other middle of the ear, the exact size
of the of the pipe. And it's just like very
very sore, very tender.

Speaker 4 (08:42):
Yes, I might need I was waking you up every
thirty minutes that night. You were truly concussed.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
You're waking up for other reasons you're up to.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
But yeah, I don't know. I don't think I'm concussed.
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
But how much junk.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
I'm just lucky to be here, lucky to be here.
After spring clean up, you know, you got to crack
a couple of eggs, cracked a couple of brains along
the way, So that's the way it goes. But we
got one last thing before we get into our first
segment here.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
I just got this.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
I was just down in Missouri. And as they say, Angie,
Missouri loves company as we do. No, I was just
down there for work, and I was watching the news.
And you know, you get directed messages on your phone.
I don't know that you guys do. But now all
of my phone messages, like all my ads and stuff
are best places to eat in Kansas City, best barbecue
in Kansas City, hall in the wall stuff. So I'm

(09:28):
getting all these like Kansas City directed stuff at me.
And now that I'm not in Kansas City anymore, and
as I'm filming this tomorrow, I head to the beautiful
state of Nebraska. Nebraska, I'm coming for you. It's gonna
be an Omaha and Lincoln for a couple of days
hanging out. And anybody got any good recommendations for Lincoln.
I guess it's too late for food recommendations for Lincoln.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
I can't.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
I felt like I went to a really good pizza
place one time. But story at eleven once again, I
guess taking a story out eleven. I got a little
news clip here, and I'm going to play a little
brief clip of it right now.

Speaker 5 (09:56):
Oh my gosh, it's a seventy year old Windfield women
say may have fostered more than two hundred children. It's
facing charges related to child abuse, and Lincoln County.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Prosecutors are looking into an allegation that she offered to
trade one child for a monkey.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
And quite the story that you could only get from Missouri,
apparently with this one here. And as they say, of course,
Missouri loves company, but.

Speaker 4 (10:20):
Very like a lot of companies.

Speaker 3 (10:21):
Probably like a lot of company. You're exactly right. It's
always crazy when you hear of these people that adopt kids.
They was like two hundred kids they have adopted, and
really feels like at the end of the day, they're
scamming the system. They're working the taxpayer moneys and stuff.
They don't like these kids or kids. Yeah, these poor kids.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Who knows what's going on?

Speaker 3 (10:38):
They say they're beating them with like door trim and stuff.
Just wild times, Missouri. What are we doing down there?
What are we doing in Missouri? Hate to call out
Missouri like this because they love company and I come
there all the time. But I couldn't believe this article
when I saw it. And the first thing I said
is who wouldn't want to trade a kid for a monkey?
First off, I mean, you haven't. I've thought about it
for sure. And it's funny. As my grandma always she

(11:00):
used to tell me, is my great grandpa was a
huge fan of wrestling, and he was a huge fan
of monkeys and wanted a pet monkey so bad. And
he would always tell my grandma when she's a little kid,
that he wanted a pet monkey, want a pet monkey.
And apparently that came into me many years later, he
reincarnated I was. He died though, when I was like
one years old. But maybe he came inside of me.

(11:22):
Maybe maybe he did.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
I don't know, maybe he came inside me.

Speaker 6 (11:27):
I don't know what happened there. But and he's dying
and she's dying of laughter. Oh my god. But okay,
get yourself together, me and my jokes. That wasn't even
a purpose.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
She laughed harder, left harder at the personal joke, but
absolutely wild. So this lady apparently trades this uh, and
it's it wasn't like a three year old kid or something.
It was like a teenager. So it's almost like slavery
at this point, because I think she said, hey, i'll
trade I'll trade this monkey for this human and she'll
do all the chores around your house. I think is
what happened there. But apparently the kid didn't get food

(12:06):
and stuff. They said in the article that like the
kid was telling everybody at school and all this stuff
that hey, this is what's going on, and nobody cared,
nobody talked about it. So child left behind apparently is
what happened there and just just a crazy story. But
to trade for a monkey is a wild move. And
I believe I'm not mistaken. I believe I'm not mistaken.

(12:26):
There was that like chimp crazy show we watched on
Netflix at one time, and it was I think that
was in Missouri too. She had all these like primates
and stuff, and she was hiding him in her house
and stuff. So it truly is the wild wild West
down there in Missouri. Just a wild time. But being
able to trade for a monkey just absolutely crazy. So
now where is the monkey?

Speaker 5 (12:45):
Now?

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Where's the kid? Now?

Speaker 3 (12:47):
Nobody knows, But man, that's a wild story from Missouri,
and Missouri is full of wild stories. I remember one
time meage you. I don't know if I ever told
you this story one time, once upon a time, and
it was probably twelve years ago. It's probably when this happened.
We had a sales meeting down in the Lake of
the Ozark. So it's, oh, you know, we're gonna take
you guys down there. We're gonna have a meeting on
the lake and you know, lake life and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
So it was nice. It was nice company to take
us all down there and stuff.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
So we went down there. I went with my boss
at the time, Larry of course Salt of the Earth.
Larry Law retired at this point, but Larry and I
drove down there and we stopped at like a convenience store.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
And it wasn't like a.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
Normal comedience store. It was one of those like mom
and pop convenience stores down in the hills. No, no,
it was like a mom and pop one. It was
like Bob c Store or something like that. But it
was it was just like something out of a movie,
like the Texas Chainsaw Masker or something. But we're down
there and a man those Ozarks too. I'll never forget.
I was getting kind of carsick because Larry was senior man.

(13:42):
He'd always drive. But it was like hills like this.
There was just one stretch. It was just like up
and down, up, and down. I was like, I'm gonna
puke all over Larry. We didn't have to do that, thankfully.
But we stopped there, and I'll never forget I was
in there. I was probably getting a beef jerky in
the diet mountain dew. That's a perfect, yeah, perfect road
snack right there. And I think he was probably getting
a dip and probably a black coffee.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
That was his. I was dying.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
I was dying mountain doing a beef jerky. He'd gets
some chewing tobacco and he would get a black coffee.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
I think that's what he would end up.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
But that's tale of different generations, I guess, is what
that is. I was the wild and crazy guy. But
we stopped in there, and I'll never forget. Like the
people in there, I mean, this is like deep down
in the Ozark somewhere. They were speaking like a different language.
It was like I could kind of understand it, but
couldn't understand it. It was just a wild thing. It
was like it plays with your brain when you feel

(14:33):
like you're understanding it, but you're not understanding it. So
it was very very strange, very very wild.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
It was just a wild time.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
But that's Missouri for you, I guess the end of
the day, it's a state of a lot of different arcs.
I mean, you go between Saint Louis Kansas City, it's
a whole different world between there. Then you go all
the way to Saint Joe, Missouri, and you're a whole
different world there. And I was just recently in Saint Joe,
Missouri last week too. Just playing all the hits in
Missouri is what I was doing. And like I said,
playing all the hits in Nebraska this week. But wanted
to bring up a crazy story a trade for a monkey.

(15:02):
I would have thought, I don't know, but so more
on that. I guess as we receive it, we'll see
what happens there. But now, Angie sad for our next segment,
It's time for a deeper dive. All right, next segment
here it is a deeper dive where we dive into

(15:24):
something a little bit deeper. It's deeper dive. I'll dive
deeper to you a little bit later, but right now
we're here at my grandpa, great grandpa. Thank you very much.
That was my great grandpa.

Speaker 4 (15:36):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
But we're doing the deeper dive here. And sometimes Angie's
here for it. Sometimes she's not. Angie. You can stay
for this deeper dive. It's an interesting one. His news
broke this week and Angie didn't see this, so you're
gonna hear it for the first time here. It was
a news from Walmart. And you know you're familiar with Walmart,
you've been there before. Walmart did put an announcement to
people that pre ordered the Killing Joke Joker figure and

(15:59):
those that pre order the Supergirl Page Puncher, of course,
both by DC McFarland Toys, and no Todd McFarland here
this week. He's downstairs on the couch of course, got
Angie here in his place. But there was a news
that came from Walmart that's sorry about your pre order.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
It's been canceled.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
As the tractor trailer that was hauling all this stuff,
oh my god, is missing, lost, disappeared, Aliens beamed it
up into space.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
I'm not exactly sure what happened.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
No word yet what has happened with this product here,
but apparently they had a semi fall, which first thing
I thought of, right there being a guy in distribution
and of course grocery stores doing all that kind of
stuff for many, many years. It was interesting to me
that Walmart is saving money from McFarland is apparently Walmart
is driving to McFarland warehouses to pick up the product
and take it back to their distribution network to funnel

(16:47):
it out everywhere. There's two ways you can go with that. Obviously,
Walmart's picking up at McFarlane. The other way is McFarland
gets it in their warehouse from the ports, the docks, whatever,
sends that to Walmart distribution points, whatever. It's all a
cost game. So anyways, they've worked out something. So that's
the way that business does go there.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Now.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
First thing I thought of good friend Todd McFarland down
on the couch. He was probably doing a little bit
of a backflip in a way. He was a little
bit happy about this. He's never gonna say he was
happy about it. But at the end of the day,
Walmart picks it up. It's their product. McFarland at the
doc says, thank you, that is all yours right now,
it's no longer McFarland. I've been paid Walmart. Enjoy it,

(17:26):
do whatever you want with it. It's hands off at
this point. Unfortunately for Walmart. Now they're left holding the bag.
They're missing all this. They're disappointing customers left and right now.
The grand scheme of the world. This isn't an absolute
fortune or anything like that. But Todd McFarland and his
team sitting back saying, well, you want us to do
another run of these figures for you? And I think
Walmart's probably laying in the weeds right now, saying hopefully

(17:48):
we can find this trailer. Hopefully something can happen. And
you gotta think, Okay, somebody stole all this, where does
it go? Are they going to try to sell it?
All of a sudden? This eBay store has ten million
jokers whenever the number maybe ten million supergirls probably gonna
have a red flag. So I'm not sure how they
get out from under this merchandise if they destroy the merchandise.
Who stole this, if it was just some punk kids

(18:10):
stealing it to throw it on fire? Not exactly sure, obviously,
I'm sure it'll figure itself out. They'll either find the
trailer with stuff or they'll find out who's trying to
sell this somewhere. But if somebody comes in office, you
a five dollars killing joke jokers, you probably know something's
going up there.

Speaker 4 (18:24):
But wait, so can the consumer go straight to McFarlane
and buy these toys or so?

Speaker 3 (18:29):
The hard part is, luckily well the joker is as
a Walmart exclusive, the page Punch or Supergirl, you can
get other places. So immediately you have to imagine that
Supergirl is going to jump up in value because now Walmart,
one of the biggest chains in the world, lost all
of their supply. That means game stop Target, local stores,

(18:49):
DJC Collectibles, our good friend whose discount code eight off DJC.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
Of course they.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
Will probably get some extra sales out of all this,
so good for them, bad for Walmart. Have to imagine
if doesn't get resurrected soon, Big Farland will probably do
another run because Walmart will pay them once again. And
then in the grand scheme of things, you also got
to remember there's probably insurance with Walmart. So yeah, it
sucks all this happened. I'm sure they have insurance and
all that kind of stuff you have to imagine, which
brings up a story for me and gee back way

(19:17):
back a long time ago, when I was a Nobisco
sales rep once upon a time now, I used to
have one of the biggest Walmart's in the state.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
Really, it was a.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
Big one, and I used to be there at four
thirty am every single morning doing my stuff. But it
was the holidays, and for the holidays in the grocery industry, obviously,
that's the time you make the most money. Unfortunately, for Nibisco,
it wasn't a commissioned job, but you did get a bonus.
You had a sales number you had to hit every month,
and you hit that, you got a little bonus. Long
story short, You're always hustling during the holidays. It's the
busiest time. People need their writs, they need their wheat things,

(19:47):
they need their trust gits, they need all that stuff.
And Walmart I usually had one pallett of backstock at
all times. I had three or four trucks a week,
so you had a lot of product coming in and
going out of that store. But holidays you had to
have extra product in the back room just on the
day the down days of the trucks. Long story short,
I had three pallettes in the back of this Walmart
start because it's the holidays, it's busy, and what happens

(20:07):
there was a big snowstorm or snow came down and
it turned into ice or whatever, and the roof collapsed.
At the Walmart, the roof collapsed, and it collapsed only
on a portion of the back room of the Star
and bad for Walmart, great for me. It collapsed all
over my pallettes of product back there. So what happened

(20:28):
there for old Kyle? I got a number I got
to hit every month. I'm straying to hit that number
for the holidays. What ended up happening is Walmart had
to pay for all that product. I got to walk
away not having to write credits or anything. Their insurance
took care of all of it. Manager came to me
and said, Kyle refilled those three pallets. So basically, I
got three three pallets of product that moved off hit

(20:49):
my number. Everything. Have to imagine that's similar to what
McFarlane is doing on this one here.

Speaker 4 (20:53):
But then you were always chasing that number again every year.
It was haunting you.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
So that is the thing, and that's the bad thing.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
And that's the story for another day, of course, and
we could do that maybe in tails from retail one day,
but it reminds me of that. So Walmart, obviously there
in church will take care of everything there, but it's
gonna be very interesting to see the price. What happens
with those two figures the black market? Will it be
out there? The dark market, of course, of action figure
is a dangerous place. I think it's down in Missouri
if I'm not mistaken.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Who've got that going on?

Speaker 3 (21:19):
But it also reminds me of a story once again.
This could be tales from retail, but I'm gonna tell
it right now. A long time ago, when I was
a kid, I was working, of course, in frozen food.
I was a frozen food manager possibly not possibly no
possibly around it. I was the youngest frozen food, youngest
department manager ever in the history of this retail chain.
So not to pap my back too much, of course,

(21:39):
but there was a pizza driver and he'd a direct
store delivery to my store, and he was a pizza
guy of frozen pizzas, and outside of a store, not
my store, but one of our other chain stores, he
left his truck out back behind the store, left the
keys in it, left it running, ran inside. Well when
he came back out, guess what i'p that truck it
was missing, and they found it about three or four

(21:59):
days later at an amusement park. It was on its side,
and this was a DSD pizza company that had a
bunch of old ladies in the town that built made
all this frozen pizza, and they'd make all the pizzas
to load the.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
Truck for the week. Then he'd go grocer store to
grocery store to sell it.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
Maybe Emma's favorite pizza place, if you know what that is,
so little tip there. If you know my daughter Emma's
favorite pizza, you'll know what the company is. But they
found it and they opened it up, and how many
pizzas do you think we're in there? Zero pizzas. Somebody
took the whole pizza for the whole week. I don't know,
but thousands of pizzas were gone out of there and

(22:37):
there was no getting it back, and that poor company
was out of business there for a whole week. But
once again, I think insurance took care of them, or.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Maybe they didn't. I don't know, but.

Speaker 3 (22:45):
Interesting to make note. Like I said, just keep an
eye out there. If you see any black market supergirls
or jokers, you let me know so I can call
Todd from the couch downstairs.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
And let him know, but it is. Nobody's gonna say it.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
But McFarland toy is probably a little happy about this
because hey, they'll get to make a rerun. They'll make
some more money. If not, I guess we'll see where
it goes. And these two could be very expensive figures
in the future. So there it is Angie that's the
deeper dive. And now Angie gets to shine. She's got
a new food to bring for us.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
So we gotta try new foods. It might taste good.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Medo down, Aleno medota, heleno veda down.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
We gotta join anything taste good.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
All right, it's time to try new foods because it
might taste good. And Angie are here? You found out
something special here.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
Today Sargento Cheese bakes.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
Sargento Cheese bakes. And did you know this is another
story time for Kyle, a guy from the stories of course,
Once upon a time, Once upon time, many years ago,
when I got out of college, I started working for
a brokerage company in the grocery industry, and one of
the brands I represented, guess what, Sargento?

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Can you believe that I used to represent Sargento?

Speaker 3 (23:58):
So I used to sell their cheese all over the
place once upon time in a former life, of course,
and the very interesting plot twist with this one right here, Sargento,
these chips right here that we're gonna try three varieties,
and the age's gonna run through us here in a second.
These are made by the Mandalese Corporation, of course, formerly Nabisco,
and I worked over there for ten years, so it's

(24:19):
like two of my former world's kind of coming together
in a new snack. And a funny thing about these
is I tried these many moons ago. Actually I don't
remember the taste of them, so it's going to be
fresh here. But I try them at a food show,
and I do go to a couple of food shows
a year.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Of course.

Speaker 3 (24:34):
It's no different than San Diego, Cooma Common. It's no
food very exciting, let me tell you. You do and
you gain a couple of pounds there because you're trying
everything there. But I was by the Nibisco guys Mondalese guys,
hard to break that habit, of course, and tried a
few of these, So very interesting to see this one together.
But it's all about synergy between these companies, of course.
Sargento trying to get their name out there with Mandalies,

(24:56):
which is very interesting to a little business hat talk here.
Of course, Craft used to own Monolies. Of course everybody
knows Craft from Craft cheeses. So it tells you that
they've split companies. But they're not even talking anymore. If
Sento is getting in the involved right here. It's their
gentle growing cheese company. Of course, not a super household name,
but getting closer every day. I will say, but we've
got three new snacks. These are to compete with cheese.

(25:19):
It's everybody likes cheese. It's except me. I think they
taste too burned to me. But either or these are
new snacks. Angie, start us with.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
The first one. Tell us what it is.

Speaker 4 (25:26):
Gosh, what have we got?

Speaker 2 (25:27):
Pull it off there, open it up.

Speaker 4 (25:28):
We got parmesan and okay.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
There or is it just a pull?

Speaker 3 (25:36):
I don't know, Go and pull and go there we go,
all right, Parmesan Oregan. I love myself some parmesan strong,
very strong, very strong, and we're kind of with we
don't so they almost remind you of an air crist
type thing.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
We're not too irby of.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
Angie loves the herb I don't.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
I don't like the herb. She's very erby trap mhm hard.
I thought they were gonna be fluffyer.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
The parmesan like tastes good quality, Like it's like shark.
He's got a little bit about.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
I'm a bit of a cheese connoisseur and I like
my cheese really sharp. Said it put for somewhere. Just
dump it on the floor of the dogs. The dogs
or rats will get.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
It all right.

Speaker 4 (26:24):
Now we got aged white cheddar and rosemary.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
Now we're gonna rake these out of a five. We
want to do that one first. The parmesan, I guess,
let's try.

Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
I gotta say what's better than?

Speaker 2 (26:34):
But it was good.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
I mean it's a very crispy. I thought it was
gonna be an airy. It has an air you look
to it. What is this one?

Speaker 4 (26:42):
Aged white cheddar and rosemary?

Speaker 2 (26:44):
I don't know. I like these cheddars. I don't know
about the rosemary, but let's go.

Speaker 4 (26:51):
Does it taste different?

Speaker 2 (26:53):
It doesn't have much of a taste to me.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
The other one's better?

Speaker 2 (26:57):
One parmesan, parmisan one of the cheeses.

Speaker 4 (27:01):
Yeah, it's just I can't even taste the rosemary. This
is a very subtle.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
Yeah, it's very I don't I don't even know what
rosemary tastes like. If somebody said, Kyle, what's rosemary taste like?
I would never be able to tell you.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
I think I'm getting the rosemary at the end there.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
What is it?

Speaker 4 (27:13):
It's that one like weird looking herb with the spikeys?

Speaker 2 (27:16):
Is it like a rose I don't know what it
does say.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
Since nineteen fifty three, our family has stood for real
natural cheese, and now we partner with the baking experts
in Tibesco to transform that passion into lightfully crunchy, deliciously
cheesy cracker. Lou and Louis Gentine, second third generation star
gentle owners, just two guys, truly salt of the earth.
So aged White Channer didn't do a whole lot for me.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
Last one's pepper Jack, which is the one I was
looking forward to the Really I love pepper jack.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
They all smell the same to me, and I can't
really say.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
This sound's not going to be Herbie hopefully all right?
Very easy for me. The first one with the parmesan
is by far the best.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Me too.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
The second one is going to be this one to
pepper Jag. Third is the aged white cheddar and rosemary.
It does have a little I don't even know if
I can call it a kick. Pepper Jack doesn't really
have a kick. There is a little taste to it,
but definitely interesting, definitely a lot harder. I was expecting
a nice softer chip, and I think I maybe would
have preferred a softer chip.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
I don't know, but they're.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
Very crunchy, very hard, a little bit airy in the middle,
but not terribly airy.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
But out of three Earth.

Speaker 4 (28:33):
They got a high, pretty high price point too. Though.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
Oh yeah, there's the price.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
I think they did mark them down on sale, but
I think they're like three ninety and.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
It's only four and a half ounces of bag.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
So it's really for uh, I don't know, people in Missouri,
I think is what we'll enjoy this shout out to
Missouri this month.

Speaker 4 (28:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
I don't know, but yeah, that's a little pricey. It's
tough in this day and age two price sells cars
and it's going to be tough to not over the cheese.
It's be interested to see if these do last. As
we've talked before on the channel about eighty five or
ninety five percent of brand new items usually fail, So
these could be one of those things. You might end
up seeing these at a Dollar General or a dollar
Tree for a dollar a bag in the future. He

(29:14):
could it happens. I hate to say it. I don't
work for the company anymore, but I hate to say it. There,
But ANGI, if you had to rate each one of
these out of five, what would you do.

Speaker 4 (29:24):
The first?

Speaker 3 (29:26):
So I'm gonna go the regno was the best. I
don't know if I rake it against like a chip
or a snack or something like that. I'm gonna give
it a.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
High three out of five. I thought it was pretty good.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
I like, but I really like parmesan, like all my
frozen pizzas pizza.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
I like a lot of parmesan on there. I love parmesan,
just raw.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
I'm a parmesan guy. So high three out of five
you I'll do three point three point five.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
Out of five. Now we go to this aged white
cheddar and rosemary. What do you give this out of
a five?

Speaker 4 (29:53):
Two point five?

Speaker 3 (29:54):
I give it a one. A one out of five
doesn't do anything for me. It's edible, It's fine. Yeah,
but it's not worth the price point f for this one.
The other two are way better than that. And then
the last one was pepper Jack and yeah pepper jack.
Will give a three pepper Jack and monkey is what
this one wants, Hope the street. Pepper Jack, Yeah, pepper jack.
I'll give it a A middle three, a middle three
on these. So I like these, but boy, there's not

(30:14):
a lot. You could put all three of these bags
together and it would fit in one of these bags.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Of course.

Speaker 4 (30:20):
Did you give that a three point five?

Speaker 3 (30:21):
I give it a high three, so like a high three,
a three point five and then a one. Uh, but
you can fit all three of these into one one
of these bags. That's how it's that game of air.
I mean, look at that. It's just ridiculous, just ridiculous.
And I blame freedom lay for that. We pay for
more air than we pay for the actual product air.

Speaker 4 (30:40):
So the reason that the air is like contaminating, then
in there to keep for freshness, it's got like chemicals in.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Yes, I don't know, so there is chemical air. That
is the it might taste good this week, I don't know.
I don't know it tasted okay, I don't know if
we'd never buy them again. Yeah, probably not. It's no
Dubai chocolate and we never bought that again.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
So we'll see.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
We'll see what Angie can find next week. Who knows, Angie.
Somebody requested maybe we try some fancy foods like empanadas
and stuff. So I don't know if we want Angie
in the kitchen and she could make us up something.
I don't know, but kind of trying to dive it
more towards snack food. But we'll see what's out there,
what's new on the market, and we'll see what happens.

Speaker 4 (31:17):
You try some pickle lemonade from Popeye's.

Speaker 2 (31:19):
That I don't know.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
You've tried the pickle sandwich. Maybe that's one we could
talk about there, But there it is. Try new foods
because it might taste good, Angie. Now it's time for
the figure of the week. All right, it's time for

(31:45):
Figure of the week. And one of these weeks, Angie,
we're gonna have you pull the figure of the week
out and you're gonna.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
Figure. You don't have it.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
You're not prepared, You're you're just here for the ride.
You're here, smile, look good, So there you go. But
Today we're doing Figure of the Week and we're going
back to one from a couple of years ago. This
one came a part of the maybe the infancy of
my YouTube channel, which maybe you're watching this video on
maybe you weren't, maybe you're listening to audio.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
Either way, it is fine by me.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
But this is something I felt like I was the
last person in the world to finally receive. I had
a lot of videos on the channel waiting and waiting
a lot of times where I thought it was coming
and it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
We did a lot of talk about this one.

Speaker 4 (32:23):
I know.

Speaker 3 (32:24):
I even took this figure to go visit Santa Claus
and he sat with Santa and he talked all about this.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
Who are we talking about? Figure of the Week?

Speaker 3 (32:32):
This week has labed Marvel Legends Sentinel. All the Sentinel
is here, and I'm a kid of the nineties. Of course,
Sentinel's been along a lot longer than that. But that's
where I cut my teeth in my X Men fandom,
and I'll never forget the Sentinels part of the X
Men animated series.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
Somebody pour one out for more.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
From speaking a different language to Ansie right now, you
don't even know what I'm talking about, But I love
the Sentinels. I bought three of these in my collection.
A lot of fun to have here. And there is
a new version of the Sentinel coming later this year.
It's not quite a has lab, moving up for a
month for pre order on Hazro Pulse. But the more
Sentinels the better. I love these big robots. I love

(33:10):
this one. A statement piece in my Marvel Legends room.
And like I said, I even took him to see
Santa and you remember this one. Of course, a lot
to keep videos of the kids, Yes, and just waiting
for the Sentinel. I don't know what the heck took
so long for my Sentinel to come. And I'll never forget.
Everybody seemingly got their Sentinels weeks before me. I swear
I was the last Sentinel that was shipped. For whatever reason.

(33:32):
It was wild and you know we'd have the door
come and I thought for sure it was Sentinel had
a huge box and what was it. I remember one
time I got back from a trip and there was
a huge box on the front step. I no, I
think it was like something from my work. It was
like a bunch of products, samples or something.

Speaker 4 (33:48):
But I remember skateboard. It was longboard.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
I there was a lot of those things like, oh,
it's got to be the Sentinel because a lot of
people had it showing up without the tracking.

Speaker 2 (33:58):
So oh, it was just the tale of two worlds.

Speaker 4 (34:01):
Yeah, you think he was acting in those videos.

Speaker 3 (34:03):
No, I was getting very hot. I was getting very
hot about it. But here we are, many years later,
a centerpiece of my collection, a favorite of mine, one
of my favorite possessions in my collection, hasbro Sentinel gonna
be the figure of the week.

Speaker 4 (34:18):
Cuties heavier than you think.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
It is very heavy, is you know?

Speaker 4 (34:22):
It's right when you come in the house.

Speaker 3 (34:23):
Right when you come in the house. One of the
statement pieces you get to see, so a lot of
fun with the sentinels. So there it is, Angie, that's
the figure of the week. Now we got a transition
to your favorite in mine, stories from retail. All right, Angie,
it's time for some stories from retail. This is where

(34:44):
I go back over my thirty plus year career at
this point in groceries, and every time people hear Kyle,
You've been around how long? Nobody understands that back in
the day, kids started when they were fourteen the day
they turned fourteen working. Now you know, we got a
fourteen yeard dollar work. Are you kidding me? And I
think that's most kids these days. But I had no
choice to start at fourteen. And I have been in

(35:06):
the grocery industry ever since I was fourteen years old.
Never time off, never elapsed in employment. Really, no five
days off in a row ever either. I never going
to take PTO. It's just part of the problem, part
of the problem.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Maybe it's the answer. I don't know either way. It's
time for some stories for retail.

Speaker 3 (35:24):
We go back on some crazy stories over the years
here and Angie, feel free to chime in if you
have any relation to this kind of story with your
retail jobs over the years. I mean, you never know,
you might know some stories along the way. But this
week we're going to talk a little bit about hazing. Yes,
hazing not just for college fraternities anymore. It also happened
at the grocery store. And I mentioned earlier. I was

(35:46):
a very young manager at the grocery chain. I worked
for a major player grocery train, a major one in
the United States. Some say it's the best grocery store
in the United States. I guess it's debatable, but USA
today said so, I guess, but worked for them once
upon a time. I now work with them every single day.
So that's been a part of my story as well.
But way back in the day of retail, it was
the wild wild West. This is the mid nineties, yes,

(36:08):
the mid nineties, true wild Wow West time. I was
a very young manager there. I was the hip cool manager.
And some may say I'm still the hip cool guy.
Yeah they could, they might somebody somebody's saying it. But
it was a lot of fun that I got to
have the reins of running a department at an early
age when I was still in high school. And I
remember I got more money an hour. I got sixteen

(36:30):
dollars and fifty cents an hour. And I told the manager,
I said, hey, here's the deal. I don't need benefits.
I'm under my dad's benefits. I just want more money.
I'm getting ready to go to college here in a
couple of years. And I worked there through college all
that kind of stuff.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
So Longstar Shore.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
I got some extra money, but I was the department
manager for my own department.

Speaker 5 (36:46):
Man.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
I thought I was the man, and I probably was
in all honesty. I was the man.

Speaker 3 (36:50):
I even dyed my hair like Rick Flair once upon
a time. And you've seen that picture at the bleach.
I'm thinking about going back to that look too. Insert
it now, insert it now.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (36:59):
But I very cool and having a lot of fun there,
of course, and it was the mid nineties or not all.

Speaker 2 (37:04):
This hr stuff. You could do a lot of stuff.
You could.

Speaker 3 (37:07):
You could yell at people, you could slap people around
if you needed to as well.

Speaker 4 (37:11):
But surely a boys club truly.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
A boys club, like like a young ween song. But
I did have a lot of my friends that came
to work to my department. So it's always interesting when
you manage your friends because they got to listen to
you if they want to get paid. But sometimes it's like,
it's Kyle, you know, we're playing virtual pro wrestling too
this weekend or whatever. I might have some stories about
some of that in the future as well.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Well. But there was a lot of hazing of new employees.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
And I gotta say, Angie, I was always nice and
especially to my friends and stuff. So the hazing that
I did as a frozen food manager was pretty tame
compared to everybody else. But I'll get into some of
these every other else stories here in a second. But
here was the rule that we had. If you were
the low man on the total poll, you were new,
or if you were working, usually had two people working
in the department together at all times. The senior guy

(37:56):
was in charge. So that makes a lot of sense
usually most of the time. But what I used to
do was if you were a brand new guy, here's
what you had to do. You had to fill Remember
the juice, the frozen juice used to come in the
canisters back and the day. I didn't think they do
that anymore, but way back in the day, there was
two or three doors of different juices like minute may
and all this stuff, and those were the worst to

(38:16):
fill in the grocery store because they always rolled and
fell out, and they would always as you're filling your
frozen stuff, it's on the sales floor, it's you know,
defrosting right there. You'd have to get to it fast
because it would start melting and leaking and get sticky
and get all over you. So the new guy, whoever
that was until he was no longer the new guy,
had to do those every single time. We ran in
the truck. They had to do all those. They also

(38:38):
had to do the strawberries and like the raspberries that
were in the box because the same kind of thing,
those things would melt and leak and all over. It
was just a messy job. It was slimy, it was disgusting.
And then of course the guy on the top of
the total pole got to do the Totino's pizzas because
those were fun. There was a lot of cases of those.
You felt like you got a lot done. You could
pick out the whole case put him in there. That's

(38:59):
how it went. So that was about the hazing that
we did. Obviously, you know, we tricked each other into stuff.
Sometimes we would do a box inside of a box
inside of a box. I had to do backstock, and
I'd get a big box and I'd put another box
and put another box, and it's kind of like those
Russian doll things. They'd have one bag of like frozen
peas at the bottom of it. So we do things
like that every once in a while. And another trick

(39:19):
I used to pull too, especially on some of my buddies.
I would put a five dollar bill sometimes like underneath
a carton of ice cream whatever. They're supposed to run
the ice cream, and sometimes you come there like you
didn't run the ice cream.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
Nothing's been touched on's me move.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
So you'd have to yell at them, and I'd say,
you know how, I didn't knew you didn't run the
ice cream. No five dollar bills still there. I think
you would have took that five dollar bill and then
they treast it. Well, no, I didn't know if it
was mine. Okay, I know how you guys go, just
some good old fun. But there was other crazy stories
back there, and the produce guys were always pretty meaner
over there, and I think one of the produce guys

(39:52):
actually committed suicide.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
Over all this stuff.

Speaker 3 (39:54):
So then take it down and take it down a
notch here, of course, but they used to get the guys.
There used to be these produce cooler carts. It's kind
of like a long skinny cart that they'd used for
produce stuff. All the produce guys would grab the new guy.
They'd hold him down on that cart and they'd get
that kind of like saran palette wrap stuff and they
would wrap him in that thing so we couldn't get
off the cart. So we stuck to the cart, and

(40:16):
then they'd throw him in the freezer and turn the
lights off and they'd leave him in there for like
a half hour, and he screaming and yelling. Some of
these young kids would cry and stuff, and some of
them would toughen out and make it to another day.

Speaker 4 (40:27):
Freezer.

Speaker 2 (40:27):
Yeah, the freezer, Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (40:29):
Which yeah, I don't know. I was used to the
freezer as a kid working in the freezer. But that
was one of the big things the produce guys used
to do. I remember they used to tell in grocery.

Speaker 2 (40:38):
A lot of times.

Speaker 3 (40:39):
They would tell these young kids, hey, you know, there's
nothing to do, and they would just prank them and
they would.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
Say, hey, go mop the freezer. That was a big
one too.

Speaker 3 (40:45):
You get the hot mop and you try to mop
the freezer and it sticks, and kids would fall for
that all the time. The other one people would do
and the grocery was they would tell them and you'd
always see these kids doing it because it was the
same jokes all the time. You just kind of watch
and laugh and see alongside of it. But they would
also say, hey, go get a bucket out of the
you know, get the hose and fill a bucket up.
We got to refill the the drinking fountain, refill the drink.

(41:08):
They get a bucket, they'd be pouring it in the
top of the drinking fountain, thinking that refills it. And
how gross would that be if it's just like a
bucket and that's the water people who were drinking.

Speaker 2 (41:16):
Oh, disgusting. But they would have kids do that. Of course.

Speaker 3 (41:20):
There was another one where the dairyman, it wasn't even
dairymaners like dairy kids like, oh yeah, the dry ice
that used to come on the cold palletts, he'd say, hey, yeah,
just go throw those in the toilet. And I don't
know how many times the toilet would crack because they'd throw.

Speaker 2 (41:33):
It in there. It was just wild.

Speaker 3 (41:35):
And I'd always throw We'd always have tons of dry
ice and frozen and we'd get them all together and
we put them in kind of like the janitor's closet
type thing. It's like a big sink and we'd turn
that water on. It would just the whole back room
would be all smoking fog from the dry ice. And
did you ever have anything like that in any of
your jobs you ever did where you used to have
to teach kids a lesson or anything, or like there

(41:56):
was the new guy and all the girls would hit
on him as a joke or anything.

Speaker 4 (42:00):
It was really not that I can think of.

Speaker 3 (42:01):
You never had any stories, nothing like that. I'm nice,
You're nice. I was pretty nice too. We didn't do
anything too hardcore over there. I think I think that's
pretty light work having to do like.

Speaker 4 (42:12):
I'd be whispering like, yeah, you would.

Speaker 2 (42:15):
She's the one that gives away you see that.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
It's on the podcast on the channel where she jumps
ahead and gives my punchline out. She does the same thing,
like I'll try to trick the kids on stuff and
she won't let it said. We just did a figure
hunt video a couple of weeks ago where you guys
all went to the bathroom. Were at a Walmart and
they all had a bunch of CDs and stuff they're buying,
and they stuck it on the paper towels kind of
by the door. They were gonna go to the bathroom
and the kids. I was around the corner. I heard

(42:38):
them say, well, if we put it here, the Wolmar
and play might find it and put it back.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
And obviously that's not gonna happen in thirty seconds or whatever.
But I heard all.

Speaker 3 (42:45):
That, I immediately said, oh wait a minute, wait a minute.
So I ran over there, I got all this stuff
and I hit it, and then I hit around the
corner and I filmed it.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
And Emma was just losing her mind right there, like
I told you, it's gone, It's gone.

Speaker 3 (42:57):
And then Elle's like, I can't believe this. They're like
flipping out. And then Angie sees me on the cry
it was your dad. Guys like, you couldn't let them
sit and stew for a couple of minutes.

Speaker 2 (43:08):
That's what you gotta do.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
You gotta let them sit and stew, just like my
dad did on the aircraft carrier. We'll tell that story
one of these days too. But Angie just gives the
joke up right. Let's let those kids have all the
range of emotions. Let's run through it, and we want
to see it. We want to see it on camera.
So a wild time, a little hazing, a little stories
for retail. Once upon a time, Angie got anything, nothing

(43:31):
couldn't think of one story. You lived a clean life
of the old cheese mart and the old the old
country wagon or whatever you were up to out the
country once upon a time.

Speaker 2 (43:40):
But there it is. That's tales for retail. Now it's
time for the album of the week, all.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
Right, time for album of the Week and album of
the Week this week is one I forced Angie to
listen to as we were driving down the road over
the last week. And this came out last year, late
last year. It is Sweetheart of the Rodeo that's where
we're at in this day and Sweetheart of the Rodeo
fiftieth Anniversary Live concert.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
Of course.

Speaker 3 (44:07):
Sweethearted the Rodeo a Bird's album from way back in
the day Turnturn Turn, Won't You Angie? And we were
listening to it and I was like, this is like
just got your dad written all over.

Speaker 2 (44:16):
This is your dad.

Speaker 4 (44:17):
You turned it into my little Sweetheart of the Rodeo.

Speaker 3 (44:20):
Western Kyle Rides again running for a long time, that's
for sure. But I really enjoyed this album as it
was a live show with Roger McGuinn of course, probably
the most famous member of the Birds, but it was
also joined by Chris Hillman. But more importantly, Marty Stewart
is fabulous superlatives. I love Marty Stewart going way back
when the first concert my daughter ell Ever went to

(44:43):
when she was like six months old, was a Marty
Stewart concert. You know, a lot of people think of
Marty Stewart like the hillbilly rock and stuff, some of
that nineties kind of Travis Tripp country. It's okay, that's okay,
but he's more of like a modern day like the
band you guys know, the band, The Weight, all that
kind of stuff. He is just one of the greatest performers.
The Perlative is an amazing band. I love Marty Stewart.

(45:04):
That's my kind of country music. I don't want any
of that Brooks and Dunn. Getriba and her fanciness out
of here, get all that kind of stuff out. I
like things like Marty Stewart. But Marty Stewart playing this
and cool thing about Marty Stewart one of the reasons
he's invited because he's kind of in that Wheelhouse of
the Birds kind of music in some ways. But he
also has Clarence White's guitar. It's his famous B bender guitar.
He does play Once upon a time was Clarence Whites.

(45:27):
Of course, the guitar is for the birds who did
pass away. So it's a roundabout thing there, but a
heck of a band to back up.

Speaker 2 (45:33):
Roger mcgwin. Now, the first thing I noticed. I think
I told you, Angie in this Roger mcgwin, his voice
is rough.

Speaker 4 (45:40):
The funny. The amount of stuff in your brain is wild.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
It's all over there.

Speaker 4 (45:47):
What did most people use? What like of the rain
might you might use for I.

Speaker 3 (45:51):
Use of my brain ninety of forty percent. I think
I got a lot going on in there at all times.

Speaker 2 (45:59):
Are the things I think about it.

Speaker 4 (46:00):
In the day.

Speaker 3 (46:00):
I think of Marty Stewart taking over Clari's White's guitar
and playing the bee Bender guitar, which I've always wanted
to play a bee bender, but they're hard to find.
And it's a telecaster. I love a telecaster, oh my gosh,
all day long. But I was telling you, agew's your listening.
I said, man, that Roger mcgwiit his voice is rough.
But of course he's eighty two years old. Eighty two,
and when you get to a certain age you lose
the timber.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
In your voice.

Speaker 3 (46:20):
You start losing your timber. Yeah, you gotta watch out
for that timber. Of course, as you get older and
I see it.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
My grandpa.

Speaker 3 (46:26):
Of course, he's ninety nine years old. He doesn't got
the powerful voice he once had. My dad's still hanging
in there, I think, what do you think? Yeah, shout
out to my dad. Of course, where are we get
my dad over here? You've got a guess on this
one here. But the Sweetheart of the Rodeo Live show,
they played the whole album plus a couple other hits there,
but it was pretty rough in a lot of spots. Really,
Marty and the Superlatives were the bright spot for me.
I wish Marty would have sang more. Honestly. Roger mcgwinn

(46:49):
was really really rough. But it's cool to celebrate fiftieth anniversary.
It's always cool to celebrate that stuff while people are
still around, so it is worth checking out. If you've
never heard the Birds and you haven't heard Sweetheart of
the Rodeo, you know now most people have had heard Turn,
Turn Turn, and some of those birds classics.

Speaker 2 (47:04):
I don't really like those songs. I really don't like.

Speaker 3 (47:06):
Those songs though, right it's just astaltic. Mind you, your
dad were running down the country roads and stuff like that.
But I never liked that Bird stuff, but I did
like the Clarence White stuff. I did like the Sweetheart
of the Rodeo stuff. So worth checking out if you
like a live album, and definitely check out Marty Stewart.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
I'm sure he'll be an Album of the Week another time,
one of these days. So there it is. That's the
album of the Week, Sweetheart of the Rodeo Live.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
Edition fiftieth Anniversary Spectacular. All right, there it is, finishing
up episode number four. I can't believe we made it.
How about in episode number five next week? What do
you think Angie the King of beers over here, old Budweiser,
herself the kingdom beers. She's ready to have one after this,
I guess, but should mention here we got a question

(47:49):
of the week to answer, and Angie's going to take
over her role a question of the week. And if
you want to be a question for the podcast, put
it in the YouTube comments or email us at the
Kyle Peterson Show at gmail dot com. I'm an Angie
could read your question. But Angie, what's the question we
got this week.

Speaker 4 (48:04):
At Neil Kelly eight four or five one? QOT? What's up?

Speaker 2 (48:09):
Question of the hour?

Speaker 4 (48:11):
Question? Of the hour.

Speaker 2 (48:11):
That's what I think. I think, correct me if I'm wrong.

Speaker 4 (48:15):
At Kyle Peterson, I was wondering what camera phone model
you used to film and what app you use to
edit your videos?

Speaker 3 (48:21):
Well, Angie, we're actually using Angie's phone for this.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
What, Angie, what phone do you have?

Speaker 4 (48:26):
I think I have at thirteen?

Speaker 2 (48:27):
iPhone? Thirteen? Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (48:29):
Time to upgrade her to a sixteen. And I actually
just got a brand new iPhone and I have not
used it yet, haven't even turned it on. It's just
such a headache trying to make this iPhone turn into
that iPhone. I just hate doing all that. And that's
where I usually turn my attention over to Angie. Cell
phone expert, used to manage a cell phone store once
upon a time. So maybe you can give some stories
from that once upon a time. You got any stories?

Speaker 4 (48:50):
Yeah, I've got a few.

Speaker 2 (48:51):
You got a few?

Speaker 3 (48:52):
Well, there we go, tails from retail from Angie from
her cell phone day.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
We could do that, but that is the phone. And
what do I edit my videos? I use iMovie.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
I am not mister technical, that's for sure. So I
just put it into iMovie and away we go from there.

Speaker 4 (49:04):
Kids, make funny. I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (49:05):
Yeah, kids make funny. That's lame.

Speaker 4 (49:07):
And you need to use like cap cuts.

Speaker 3 (49:08):
They say, Oh, cap cuts just the greatest thing. I'm like,
this works, for this works.

Speaker 4 (49:12):
We're trying to get all to start editing.

Speaker 3 (49:14):
It'd be nice if she would take over some of this,
but I don't think she could do it. But it's
just too many weird jokes and too many Ken peterra
At McDonald's jokes that would just fly right over her head.

Speaker 4 (49:23):
She wouldn't know where to clip stuff is she would
that's a problem.

Speaker 2 (49:25):
That's the problem.

Speaker 4 (49:27):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (49:27):
But yeah, it is weird to think that. You know,
they're thinking cap cut and all this stuff, and I
don't know. I know, iMovie. But my problem is my brain,
Like I said, it's full. I have so many different
processes I have to use in my dumb There's so
much stuff and systems and passwords. I can't do anymore.
I can't Ma's capacity back here.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
And then I hit my head what we talked about
and you can cut And I lost a few things
along the way. So hard times.

Speaker 3 (49:51):
But if you want to be the question of the
week for Angie or for me, anything's on the table,
hit us up the cop heresould show at gmail dot
com or put it in the YouTube comments. And that
is episode number four, Angie, quite the wild one here,
a lot of stuff going on. Episode five gonna be
very intriguing. Who is gonna win the big bet? Who
will be wearing what? Oh, stay tuned for that next week.

(50:13):
Hope those media predictions go well, we'll see. Hopefully everybody
enjoys their WrestleMania weekend. If you do celebrate, I guess,
and I guess as people are watching this right now,
it's already happened. So that's the hard thing is we're
filming this a couple of days before Rustle meaning because
I gotta go to Nebraska, so we couldn't film it.
So it's gonna be the week after. So just play along,
just play along, Just gotta just pretend. And of course,

gotta thank DJC Collectibles for being the sponsor of this
episode and this whole YouTube channel podcasting we're doing right here.
