Hello? Jessica Jessica, she's fourteen. You sound like you're twenty.

Speaker 11 (02:55):
Yeah, she's fourteen. I'm actually thirty four.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Beautiful. Well, listen, she called the wrong station. I didn't
want to string her along, but as she said, you
usually do by the way we usually do because we'll
get wrong numbers from out of state and it's a
lot of fun. But if she's an acro and I
don't want to screw with a local gal. But why
is her uncle going to go with her to Pink?

Speaker 15 (03:11):
Well?

Speaker 11 (03:12):
He loves Pink and he's always one to see her concerts. Wow,
he's willing to take her.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
And how old is the uncle?

Speaker 11 (03:20):
Two?

Speaker 16 (03:21):
Okay, so he's that's okay, that's in the safe range.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Is he a gay man?

Speaker 11 (03:26):
Yes, he is.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Okay. Well, listen, I like Pink a lot. Unfortunately I
don't have tickets. She was trying to call a kiss FM.
She called w m MS and so I again, I apologize,
but there's nothing I can do for her. Jessica, don't
you're fine?

Speaker 11 (03:46):
It was Google that messed up, not you guys.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
That damn Google. It thinks it knows everything and it
knows nothing. Jessica switched to bing are you familiar with
our show, Jessica, do you know what show this is?

Speaker 11 (03:57):
I listened to every once in a while. I don't
really listen already the kids do.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Yeah, all right, well, frankly, I can't blame you.

Speaker 4 (04:05):
All right, sorry, Jessica, all right, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
There's Jessica. I didn't want to do the whole Tumbleweed
Dan rap with the girl from Akron. I really didn't want,
especially because the mom's behind her giving her the whole thing.
It's more fun if it's like somebody's like, you know,
I want to win those tickets. Yeah, they don't know.
That's more fun, but I have. I am building up
a file of Tumbleweed Dance two in the Pink concert.

(04:33):
You're like, I'm gonna take my uncle. So your uncle's
the queen. Yes, he's very he's a he's a twink. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
Wait, did you talk to her on the phone about that?

Speaker 1 (04:42):
No? I didn't ask her who she was taking. Oh,
I didn't know if you'd done a little pre interview,
and I did. I said where's she calling from and
how she was and because she was like, did I
win the Pink tickets? Okay, Well then then I'll tell
you this out loud for future reference, like I only
want them out of state. Okay, yeah, because I'll save
us time and you know I I want and it
keeps the bit the way it is. Yes, I don't

(05:03):
want to screw with some local kid, frankly, because what
if Tumblewee Dan ends up being more popular than we are.
But I gotta do this good voice the whole time
to rebrand yourself. Everybody, what's going on?

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Yeah? Oh god, you should have hurt.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
I mean one of the first one of my first Uh,
when I first got to Pittsburgh, our request line was
very similar to the urban station in town, which was
Whamo FM and so god yeah w amore they calling.
I forget who my alter ego was. Then it was like,
uh God, would you go Urban?

Speaker 17 (05:40):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, like yo, man, what's up? It was awful?

Speaker 4 (05:43):
It was, which I probably have it on one of
my old CDs. Yeah, it was. It was awful.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
I wonder if I had that somewhere, because I'll play
it for you if I do, because you can you
can mock me till the cows come home.

Speaker 12 (05:54):
Oh no, I like these, like when you played the
one the pay my gas bill? That was that was fantastic,
and my gas bill is not bad, but pay my
gas bill was incredibly funny.

Speaker 4 (06:06):
That's old school.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Do me a favor, Go get my other You know
where my leather binder is on top of the file cabin.

Speaker 12 (06:12):
They go get me my glass.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
I want to break one of those open. We'll listen
to that. I thought it was in this one, but
I don't have it in this one.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
But anyway, Yeah, so people would call because I guess
the request lines at the time were very, very similar
and rather than going no, you got the wrong number
because that was.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
No fun heavy.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
I think it's on one of them. I'm excited to
hear this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there it is nice.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
Now we just got to hope this. Uh, this old
CD player works? What is this thing? Just the way
that it has to load in like that? I know
it's old school.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
I could put my old Halloween Town spell on it now.
If I recall correctly, this is probably really racist. So
but they're making another different time. Who had trouble operating
one of them? Fancy's telepoly is loose a yeah?

What?

Speaker 4 (08:52):
What'stization? Just? Yeah? I was like, now, what's thesation made you.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
But imagine that The number five song in the countdown
was saying, your tail that's a long time, Yeah, get down,
take it till.

Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yeah. That was a club banger back then.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, so anyway, I remember they dropped down again, girl.
That was pre tumbleweed Dan. Yeah, why Freddy, Why Freddy?
You just saw that up, just like I don't know
who the if I had been, if I had been smart,
I would have told them I was one of the
actual jocks that was at that station, because as you heard,
she's talking to her brother. Who boy, you guys are

(09:38):
in the majority on the peeps. Everybody's texting me and
the break telling me I'm insane.

Speaker 16 (09:45):
That's surprise me that you like them because you're weird,
like anything that anybody likes that brings joy to people
you don't like. So of course you like peeps because
everyone hates them.

Speaker 4 (09:56):
I didn't realize everybody hated them.

Speaker 16 (09:58):
I don't even know that people buy them for nostalgia purposes.
They buy them because well, it's not.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Like you have to go hunting for them. They just
make them, and they make plenty a bunch of different kinds.

Speaker 16 (10:07):
Nobody eats them, though, I've never seen one person oh
pets and they just have like the powder all over
their face, I assume.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
But I assume people like them. Or why would Oriole
make peap flavored oreos?

Speaker 4 (10:17):
And there's people out there that are just disgusting.

Speaker 9 (10:21):
Received put this on here, you're thinking you're just an
often but a piece of talk about.

Speaker 22 (10:29):
Cool about another satisfied customer the Alan Cox Show.

Speaker 4 (10:33):
I hate it. The show sucks on one hundred point
seven domms.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Do people call the police for leaving their trash cans
on the curb too long? This is what I mean.
Some people do call the city because then you get fined. Haters.
The neighbor called out to the guy, asking where he was.
He said inside the car was all fog and missed
from his breathing. So for thirteen hours this guy was
in his car in his garage and no one heard him.

(11:01):
Being in his garage probably saved his life though, because
there's at least not direct some liking in there, and
it was the garage door was open, so the car
does have an emergency unlocked lever beneath the seat along
the frame of the car door. He's considering filing a
lawsuit against general motors. My father in law only drives Cadillacs.
He has for as long as you know, I mean

(11:25):
as long as I've known him. But you know, my
wife can attest. He just likes Cadillacs, always drives him.
Never got locked in one. A lot of people that
drive Cadillacts or just have like a preference for a car,
say bury me in this car.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
So he almost got his wish almost.

Speaker 15 (11:40):
So he didn't know where that lever was, that emergency
lever to unlock it.

Speaker 4 (11:44):
Or it didn't work.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Maybe I don't know, and he didn't know where it was.
An attorney says that relying on a manual in an
emergency is asking too much of car owners. I agree,
it's not obvious to anyone who owns the vehicle what's
in the box. But it's also he didn't have his manual.
It's also one of the things where cardos should open.

(12:07):
They shouldn't rely on electronics to open. That's just really dangerous.

Speaker 15 (12:12):
Yeah, there should be like in my car or most
people's car, you can move.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
The Yeah, you can open the car.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah, you can move the lock manually if you need to.
We were talking briefly about healthcare yesterday and the state thereof,
And we had some veterans calling us, and I put
two veterans who are kind of diametrically opposed in their
thoughts on the subject. I put him on together and
I let them hash it out for a minute. But

(12:40):
one of them said that he doesn't think everybody should
get the same healthcare because some people earned their health care.
He said, as a veteran, he he enlisted blah blah blah. Sir,
this country did that voluntarily, mind you. And there was
another veteran who disagreed with him. But I'm the subject

(13:00):
of people thinking that not everyone deserves healthcare.

Speaker 4 (13:06):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Take the woman who mistook a stick of dynamite for
a candle in a blackout good straight out of a
Daffy Duck cartoon, comes a thirty year old Connecticut woman
who severely injured her hand and face. Oh man, don't

(13:29):
you know like once you I mean, you might never
held a candle, but also like it's kind of fuse,
it doesn't have a wick. Yeah, you're like, why is
this a few this wick on this candle so long?
And why why dynamite in your house?

Speaker 3 (13:46):
A drawer?

Speaker 1 (13:47):
You know, it's white people.

Speaker 4 (13:49):
I like this. I liked it exactly. I like the stories.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
I'd rather see a story of the woman who you know,
mistakes her vibrator for a flashlight, or mom, I found
the flashlight, turns it on and it's not at all.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
Yeah, this candle smells like gunpowder.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
I like it. Yeah, do we have any lights around here?
I found one?

Speaker 4 (14:08):
No, that's not that's not it.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Around nine to twenty pm a couple of nights ago,
there was a thunderstorms had knocked out their power and
she was at home with her husband and two children.
They had intended to buy emergency lighting from home depot,
but the store was closed.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
Oh no, because the power was out.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
So don't you have more candles around your house? And
just not only that, but I would imagine, I would
imagine a family that has sticks of dynamite around. It's
probably some kind of prepper family. You don't have matches, Well,
clearly they had a match, yeah, but you don't have whatever.
Then they remembered seeing something in the basement that they

(14:53):
thought were candles, you know, red candles with a long wig.
They also have found some black bowling balls that had
wicks on them too, And then they lit. Those family
bought the home two years ago and the previous residents
had left them behind. Okay, so not a proper family,
but they Hey, wasn't there a box of candles marks

(15:14):
in the basement? You know what's dynamite and what's not.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
You know it's not a candle. You might not, but
you know it's not a candle.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
And don't you have other candles? When the mother tried
to light one of the candles, she lost several fingers.
Oh that means more than one hand? What are you
holding it with two hands? Several fingers? You could just
lose like two or three fingers. That's not several, that's
a few in several seven? Several more than a hand,

(15:45):
isn't it four? I think you could have had one,
several less, three or more? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (15:53):
Several? Isn't that a few?

Speaker 1 (15:56):
Googling it? Yeah, please do what's the demarcation line between
a few and several? Several is used to mean more
than some, but less than more, but not more than two,
so I guess it can be. However many you wanted
to more than two?

Speaker 19 (16:10):
All right?

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Three or more is what I said? That's several seven.
It's not the word seven and turning it into three fingers.
Would you tell someone I'm holding up several fingers, Yes,
I'd say a few, I'd say, would you mean the
same thing? Yeah, they're synonymous. Huh. I think a few
iss is three or more so? To you, few is

(16:33):
a synonym of several?

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Really, I think Actually, if you google it, they might
see huh. I just thought several synonyms. I thought for
sure that those were two distinct. A couple is two, well, right,
because a couple is literally two.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
But I would never think that three was several. That's interesting.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
So if somebody said I had several beers, you'd think
a few? Really, did you say several beers?

Speaker 4 (17:04):
You think three to five beers?

Speaker 1 (17:07):
That's about a few beers. Three to five beers?

Speaker 4 (17:10):
Five is a few beers?

Speaker 1 (17:12):
Well, depending on the a six pack is a few beers. No,
it's not a six pack. It's five one fewer one
several lists one less several than a six pack. But
I'm confused that are you trying to say that a
few is more than several?

Speaker 4 (17:27):
Now is less than several?

Speaker 1 (17:30):
Well, because you hear.

Speaker 15 (17:31):
The word few and you think fewer, but several and
a few to me mean three or more, really, but
not too many.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
I would have never thought that. I think of several
as like close to ten. I guess because I think
of seven. Yeah, no, no, no, that's not the root word
of it is not many. It says in the definition
a few, but not many. Okay, I guess I just
think of several as more than a few. Well, now
you have to change the way to think that one.

Speaker 15 (17:55):
Yes, right, You're confusing when you're like, when you hold
three fingers up, do you say that's several?

Speaker 1 (18:00):
I'm like, yeah. But if if a cop stopped you
and said how many beers did you have? And you
said several, he wouldn't think three. He'd think several beers,
like more than three or four? Okay. If you said
I only had several, he'd go get out of the car.
I wouldn't answered I only had several. If it's synonymous

(18:20):
with few, then it's the same thing. I only had
a few?

Speaker 4 (18:22):
Is what people think? What does every drivers say only
had a few beers?

Speaker 1 (18:26):
They don't mean several, They mean a few, but they
try to make it sound smaller.

Speaker 15 (18:30):
The thing is a few sound smaller because it has
the word few in it.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
Fewer right, Well, no, few doesn't have the word few
in it.

Speaker 12 (18:38):
Few is the word few. That's a good point. You're
making several good points.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
You know what few? You know, few has the word
few in it, and then all the other letters are silent,
and several has the word seve in it. I think
with several, her fingers were seven? A few fingers were seven?
Is what happened? Several severed less than a few.

Speaker 4 (19:07):
I'm dead, ma'am. How many fingers did you blow off?
Several or a few?

Speaker 1 (19:13):
I don't know, depends on if you're an optimist or pessimist.

Speaker 4 (19:16):
If you're it's a few.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
If you're optimistic, ma'am, is your hand half full of
fingers or half empty of fingers? I guess I think
someone has topped aka Becky.

Speaker 4 (19:34):
Department.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
I'm hurting all right now. That's good to know.

Speaker 4 (19:38):
I had no idea that few and several were synonyms.

Speaker 15 (19:41):
I think because several has become a word to describe multiple,
which sounds like.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
More than three.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
I mean, but if your girlfriend said she had few orgasms,
that would sound less than several orgasms.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
I will agree with nothink.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
That was a synonymic because fewer I go, oh, great, so.

Speaker 12 (19:59):
You had sounds like less Yeah, fearing sounds like less
than several, even though they mean the same thing.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
Yeah, all right, exactly, all right, exactly, we finally arrived, exactly.

Speaker 12 (20:09):
And the severity of the situation, you want to say
things like, oh I lost if you say I lost
a few fingers, yeah, this dynamic I was like candle,
I lost several fingers.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (20:22):
I don't know why they can't say specifically how many
thingss you? Because it's not.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Like she thinks the problem I have. They can count
actually counted, I have several. I lost several fingers. I
still have seven my fingers? Did you start with several?

Speaker 16 (20:38):
I'm about to start taking people off of my Facebook
page because there was a listener that messages me and
he was like, oh, your boyfriend is white.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
White.

Speaker 4 (20:46):
I'm like, yeah, he's white. I don't know what he's like.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
No, is he what?

Speaker 4 (20:49):
I guess I never thought of him.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
He was like, he's white, white, as I didn't think
he was like Puerto Rican or something. No, he's white.
You think of what pound Cake told people he was
when he was younger said that, but for some said,
I was thinking that your boyfriend was not whatever. I
guess I didn't give that much thought. But he said
he's so white that he looks like the type of
guy to do a high five and not like it
and didn't want to do it again. That's what he says.

(21:11):
He is, He like.

Speaker 17 (21:13):
A how to do?

Speaker 4 (21:14):
What's wrong with that? You just want to get it right? Okay.

Speaker 12 (21:16):
Sometimes you get a little nervous. You don't quite get
the smack you want, so you gotta give it.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
We gotta redo it high five, especially if it's that
really bad one where you put your fingers around their fists.
That one is going for the fist bump, the other
one's going for the handshake, gripping their fist. You never
want to grip the fist unless someone else is co
signed on it.

Speaker 21 (21:39):
Picture lambing doors like you know, you know, I'm trying
to do a show slamming doors.

Speaker 4 (21:48):
He usually under normal circumstances.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
You know, you see it on air. Light on you
gingerly walk in the room, shutting the door like a
church mouse. My hands to kick it. I'm bitch like crabs.

Speaker 4 (22:17):
Slam the door like we were talking bad about her.

Speaker 3 (22:22):
About me?

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Are were walking with my hands like this? I'm sorry,
I was That was the kind of slam where the
person is on the other side of the door, not
on the inside of the door.

Speaker 4 (22:31):
So are you are you?

Speaker 21 (22:32):
Are you?

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Are you?

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Theorizing that maybe the door slipped out of your.

Speaker 23 (22:37):
I'm saying I couldn't gingerly close it because I put
a squirt of lotion in my hands and then I
was like, oh crap, no, I don't.

Speaker 4 (22:43):
Have a hand.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
I understand not to carry man.

Speaker 4 (22:53):
It's like at the end of the show, it'll pull
the curtain back a little bit.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
It's funny to me, but like the end of the show,
when I'm wrapping everything up, the you know, Bill and Mary,
they got nothing left to do, so they leave the room.
I'm still talking, and I like it's like Marty McFly
fire tracks.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
Under their feet the doors.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
All right, guys, anywhere I'm talking tomorrow, Yeah, someone is
literally like still filing paper. Like if this were office,
someone will still be on the phone filing papers, y'all.

Speaker 4 (23:22):
Just like turn on the factor cleaner, turn off lights.
Allan's like still doing work.

Speaker 12 (23:28):
And then like the papers that we were holding are
just like floating.

Speaker 4 (23:33):
I look out the window.

Speaker 19 (23:34):
They're like leaving.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
No one answers the room faster than you're like. They're
trying to go away from the Libyans of the Twin
Pines ball. I was afraid. I used to when I
first started here.

Speaker 16 (23:45):
I was afraid to leave before Alan left, so I
would just be sitting in here and I would. For
some reason, it was my tradition to walk in there
and say bye to Alan before I left.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
I just had to have.

Speaker 16 (23:57):
I want him to know that, like, I'm not leave
because you know what to is because I have to.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
So I was like, bye because you had to. What
do you mean, like, there's this shows over? Yeah, the
show's over for me, boss.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
Yes.

Speaker 16 (24:11):
I would peap my head in here, and he's just
looking at the computer, not paying any attention to me
at all.

Speaker 4 (24:16):
I'm like bye, and gingerly looks.

Speaker 23 (24:18):
Up by seven.

Speaker 4 (24:21):
I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
Yeah, but once the show's over, No, it's the door
slamming that crash. It's okay.

Speaker 4 (24:27):
I just thought it was funny.

Speaker 23 (24:29):
Not like when you're at a restaurant they start putting
the chairs up at.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
The tables around signifying like hurry up when you nothing
better than when you walk into a fast food place
and the places like Bleach because they're getting their side
work done. There's like a mop bucket there. Yeah, can
I get a Can I get a hot tuna?

Speaker 4 (24:47):
And I love going to fast food places and getting
hot tun.

Speaker 6 (24:54):
No.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
That's why I had to stop going to Potbelly. I love, love,
love Potbelly. It's a hometown chain.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
Love it.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
They never ever listened. I'm standing right there talking to them,
and they do not listen. Because I like their tuna sandwich,
but they toast all their sandwiches. So I go, I'd
like a cold tuna, cold tuna. I couldn't say it
to be cold. I wouldn't.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
I can't say it any clear.

Speaker 1 (25:17):
I just reflexively throw it in the thing, and by
that time I go up. So then I walk down
and wait for it to slowly come out of the thing. Right,
they go, cinciers the person on the other end, they don't.
I go, I just don't like people. I don't, you know.
It's I don't want food wasted. A I'm like, but

(25:38):
you want the guy what you want? Well, that's right,
I don't take it. I go, you got to make
me a cold one.

Speaker 4 (25:42):
That's why I ordered.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
But I just stopped going because I'm like, why am
I doing this?

Speaker 16 (25:47):
When I worked at this freshens place that the crate
making place in college. My friend and her mom is
on the Blacklist. Her mom Monica, she's like something and
a half. My friend Ali, I used to work with
her at fresh Ends and she was notorious for slamming
the door on customers and pointing and laughing at them
before like.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
It would be like eight fifty nine.

Speaker 16 (26:08):
Because she's like I'm not She's like, you come in
five minutes before we're closing, I'm going to close the
gate on you. And there was a guy running from
the student one into the student union to the other
and she closed the door.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
It's like fifty nine closed.

Speaker 16 (26:22):
It's like, as she pointed and laughed, I'm like, Ali,
you cannot point in laugh.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
She's like, I'm pointing in laughing.

Speaker 4 (26:29):
She's like, I'm hopping up and I'm leaving.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
Well, i mean, for anybody who's worked retail or fast,
it's super rude to walk in like fifteen minutes before
somebody's ready to close, unless it's a super quick thing
you can get and whatever.

Speaker 4 (26:40):
But you know these yeah, I'm just gonna there's kids.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
There's kids back there, like making the sandwiches, like can
I get them? Because people go, hey, open till ten
is one it says, which is true, it's just rude.

Speaker 16 (26:52):
We would have teens come in. That would be the
annoying part. Like it's like we close at nine, it'd
be eight fifty. And then you know a team would
get out late. An team, yeah, and they would come
in like right there. I'm like, we're on everything. We
packed up everything, like, and smoothies are take a while to.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Make, and they're messy and crapy take a while to make.
And they're like, oh, can we get a rice ball?
Oh but wait, I don't want Do you have feta cheese?
I'm like, I give you.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Say who brings the softball team in for crapes?

Speaker 23 (27:23):
See the other I worked in retail for a long time,
so I'd work at the mall and if we closed
at nine o'clock, generally that last hour you're not super busy.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
You might have a couple people, and so you start straightening.

Speaker 23 (27:34):
Yeah, you start straightening up because everything has to be
in size order and look a certain way. So you're
straightening up the jeans wall and all the T shirts
and all that kind of stuff. And the worst thing
in the world when somebody would come in and sure enough,
they'd be like a medium, so they pull, well, they
pull on out from the middle of the stack, and
then it just looks like a bomb went off in
the T shirt section and they just like take out
six pairs of jeans only to like crumple them up

(27:56):
and shove them back in. You're like, everything I just
did for the last forty minutes has been under.

Speaker 4 (28:00):
I just remember when I was managing a Blockbuster video.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
You know, you could do a lot of stuff and
straighten the place up in case somebody came in at
the last minute. It wasn't the end of the world,
but you couldn't shut down your registers and that's a
process count. Yeah, and so I'd have to do all that.
But I remember back in the day when I was
working like white tablecloth restaurants, when somebody would come in,
then really, lego, you guys, is.

Speaker 4 (28:24):
The kitchen still about you?

Speaker 1 (28:25):
Yeah, because we'd have to put out a pewter plate,
a wine glass, a water glass. O wle, you're putting
settings out, You're not just like you know, bellying.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Up to the bar or whatever. And it's that quick food.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
No, Yeah, could I get.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
The bergen yawned for two?

Speaker 1 (28:42):
There's only one of you, sir, Yes, But I really
like it what I want, That's what I want right now.
I feel like with social media or or maybe I
don't know what it is, it feels like a confluence
of things between people getting called out on social media,
people who aren't people who work for companies who aren't
smart on social media, and the age of the Karen.

(29:05):
I feel like the customer is always right has kind
of been shown the door.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
I think that's gone. Yeah, like.

Speaker 23 (29:11):
The customer's taken with a grain of salt. I think
at least yeah. Maybe last night when we went to Bearden's,
I felt so bad because there was like two It's
a diner, so there's like teenage girls, young girls working,
and I only saw maybe two or three. One was
kind of getting orders ready like an expo. And then
there was like two girls working the casherster and it
was really nice outside, so they have like picnic tables
out that were all full, and there was people in

(29:33):
the restaurant waiting to get their food, and then the
ice went out on the.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Drink machine, and so.

Speaker 23 (29:38):
These girls are panicky, and I was like, I don't
even want to ask, like for ice, and I looked.
I was like, do you have any have any more ice?
And she was like yeah, where we saw.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
What it took extra ice?

Speaker 23 (29:49):
Well, she had to like go scoop the bucket and
then climb up on top of like the the.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Drink machine, the drink machine, pull the lid off, dump.
It was like a whole process. BLA McDonald's were saying
that their their chick machine has broken.

Speaker 23 (30:03):
I'm like, I just felt so bad because she probably
knew she had to do that, but also knew everything
that went into it. So she's like, I haven't had
five spare minutes to do this yet We're all sitting
there with empty cups of Is there more iceer?

Speaker 4 (30:18):
Just frozen water to drink or drinks warm?

Speaker 1 (30:20):
You think I can just have a tea with no ice?
Co on listeners are already jumping on the h They're
already calling you Mary Slamdorum, So congratulations. Uh, you'll never
unload that while you're here. She ran the joint. Anything
could be used as a sex toy if you're brave enough.

Speaker 4 (30:47):
To show on w m MS.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Well, I tried to shoehorn it in yesterday. But now
there's a legit cookie crime. We were talking about Girl
Scout cookies yesterday and how I guess you're done taking orders? Yeah,
they're they were due today, They.

Speaker 4 (31:00):
Were due today. Did you get a last minute burst?

Speaker 23 (31:03):
I got probably about twenty more boxes after the show yesterday,
but a lot.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 23 (31:07):
When I posted on my social media on Wednesday night,
no Tuesday night, it was like like an overwhelming amount.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
A New Jersey Girl Scout leader has been let go
from that position after her story of her there was
some cookie theft going on. She swipes some money. So
these girls are out there selling cookies and the troop

(31:37):
leader or whatever you call her.

Speaker 4 (31:39):
Cookies sell themselves, they really do. They sell themselves.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
But she pocketed eleven hundred dollars in cash and checks.

Speaker 4 (31:50):
What did she think was gonna happen?

Speaker 1 (31:51):
Took them from a table, robbing the youngsters of these funds.
These girls are trying to win a trip or trying
to fund a trip to Savannah, Georgia.

Speaker 4 (32:02):
I guess what.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
Because one of the cookies is called that, I don't know,
like a like a camp there or something.

Speaker 4 (32:08):
We couldn't afford to get him to American Samoa.

Speaker 18 (32:12):
Uh, they good behavior, had cookie crimes.

Speaker 4 (32:19):
So this woman steals eleven hundred dollars in cash.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
These girls had sold their dosey does and the thin mints.
This was at Woodbridge Center Mall, which we have bureau
chiefs in New Jersey who know precisely where that is.
She pointed a handicapped man and an elderly woman as
the thieves. She pointed the finger at someone else, oh man,

(32:43):
so she didn't even she she stole, but also tried
to blame a handicapped person and a mentally challenged person
for the crime. This bitch, you know what that was?
So because I've just had.

Speaker 23 (33:01):
People venmoing me or paypaling me for the money because
I can to transfer to my bank account, take it
out and then give it to my sister.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
My sister looked at me. She goes, I'm really happy
you don't have a drug problem.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
But I was like why, She's like, You're like yet.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
She was like, is this money gonna go to the bar.
You can have a big party on a cookie money,
and I know steal. You're reading about Mary pilfering cookie money.

Sister's boyfriend had a baby because he's a Twist. Yeah,
they live together, they have the kid together, all that
kind of stuff.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
And it took me forever to find out that he
was dating Mary's sister. I was like, what, okay, yeah,
how long had you worked on him by the time
you found out that he was dating Well, he kept
saying that he was straight, and I didn't believe him.
I'm like, nobody believes him.

Speaker 23 (34:24):
But I'm like, when you're bartending in a gay bar
and you're a good looking dude, like you're not going
to be like you girls know, thank you, I'm straight?

Speaker 16 (34:58):
Trying to learn what I haven't been late in twenty
nineteen yet, So I'm learning.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
That's only thirty one days into the year. That is
a long time.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
It's a long time, said a whole month. All right, Wow, No,
I think I just said it out loud.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
I haven't been late in twenty nineteen.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
It's been cold. That's no more reason. Yeah, I'm trying
to help. That might changed this weekend.

Speaker 4 (35:21):
Now I'm going out there.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
You go, where are you going? I mean you had
the shot twist if you would have just gone to
that guy's house but you didn't want to leave your house. True,
I've done that on principal before or this principal. Yeah, yeah,
I'm giving you something.

Speaker 4 (35:33):
You a high school principal.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
Yeah, I mean I was out of school, but my
cousin really needed to graduate. I want to need you
to change that A to a D. If it gets much.
I'm saying maybe a D plus. I don't know what
that means.

Speaker 23 (35:49):
It's all right, No, like where it's like, okay, you
have plans to go over to someone's house, so they
have plans to come over, and oh, I'm not going
to go Like, well no, if you're not going to
make the trip over here, then screw was the original plan.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
It's not worth it, okay. And then you're also kind
of succeeding, and then.

Speaker 23 (36:04):
You're like putting them in a position of like, oh, well,
you'll do.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Whatever I ask anyway. That's why it's always good. Always
a great idea to date people who live in your
apartment complex.

Speaker 23 (36:14):
I have six apartments in my building, and uh, it's
like your own little Melrose Place. No, there's a lesbian
couple of upstairs, there's the apartment above. Mind, the lady
only uses to bang her boyfriend because she's married, and
that's like her all right, it's cabin. I know the
other guy is like single, and he's like an older
dude and he's got a son in the military. I

(36:34):
don't know the other one, but then the guy across
off from he's kind of a strange.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
You should have gone door to door selling girl scout
cookies just to see what the inside of her stab
and cabin looks like. If it has nothing in it,
it's probably a mattress on the floor because I can
hear it moving. It sounds like it's on wheels. Oh,
there's a frame on wheels.

Speaker 23 (36:55):
It's I can hear it like something's hitting the wall
for rooms.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
And they don't want mabe, she's just roller skating and working.

Speaker 1 (37:04):
Running into the walls.

Speaker 16 (37:05):
You're married, How do you have an apartment and like
not have your husband know about it.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
She probably is some kind of a job that has cash.
There plenty of ways to do that, and yeah, you
don't have to put all your finances together. I just
figure after a while, it's like you're getting utilities.

Speaker 12 (37:21):
Okay, maybe it's something they do to spice it up
because they got kids or something and they need.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
To her husband over there above Mary's Garden apartment.

Speaker 12 (37:31):
They act like it's like they're they're strangers, yeah, like
hooking up and it's really just a.

Speaker 4 (37:37):
On toys.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
It was last night.

Speaker 23 (37:40):
My cat was actually super weird and she was sitting
right by my front door that I don't use as
a front door that goes out to get your mail
and goes out to the front of the apartment complex.
We know front tours are okay, I don't use this
for you one part of the building is it on
r And she was acting like a crazy person. She
was sitting and just scream at the door, just meowing

(38:01):
me just like that. Instantly, I'm like, what is going
on with you? And then like I realized that I
hadn't seen my neighbor across the hall in a couple
of days, and like I hadn't seen this car move,
And I'm like, if that guy's dead across the hall,
because I like, don't animals sense stuff like that like
danger and smell?

Speaker 1 (38:17):
And yeah, they say, but I've never spoken to an animal,
so they haven't been able to confirm I.

Speaker 14 (38:22):
Don't know why.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
This is the first thing I thought. I was like,
she can smell a dead corpse, and now there's gonna
be a ghost of my poo. Well, you would smell
a dead corpse if it's a poll of vortex that
doesn't need a highly refined sense of smell. The smell
of it is dead corpse a little. That's another one
of those. It's another those Harry Potter jelly belly beans. Yeah.

(38:43):
Oh it's either egg or dead corpse. Yea dead corps
is redundant. It was late, I was tired.

Speaker 23 (38:47):
I forgot I put laundry in, so like I took
cold medicine and had already kicked in. So I'm like
a little delirious, just annoyed, and she's just sitting there
yelling at the.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Door, and I'm like, I got a lot of plates
spinning in this scenario, that cat that might be meowing
at a corpse. Yes, you've got laundry going, but you
just guzzled some nic get already kicked in.

Speaker 23 (39:05):
I got home and took it and like sat down
to write, and then I put laundry in and forgot
to set an alarm. So I just didn't think about it,
and then like two hours went by, and I'm tired
and I'm delirious, and she's yelling at the corpse. And
then I couldn't sleep because I was afraid that there's
gonna be a ghost to my apartment.

Speaker 4 (39:22):
That's why you couldn't sleep.

Speaker 1 (39:25):
I've told you guys before that I believe in.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
Ghost right, I know, But do ghosts manifest that quickly?

Speaker 1 (39:31):
I imagine there's got to be some There's got to
be some kind of bureaucracy if you believe in that, right, Like,
you don't just die and immediately start haunting. He might
be panicked, so he's like, oh, this guy's dead, now
I need somewhere to go. He is the closest.

Speaker 4 (39:43):
Apartment, But doesn't he stay in his apartment?

Speaker 1 (39:47):
I don't know if he is as much of a hermit.
I think that the ghost haunts the apartment that they
are in. They're not gonna they don't get access to
the whole building, only only areas that he goes to.
So if he's ever been in your apartment, he doesn't
get to go haunt your apartment. He can haunt areas
that are common space. He can haunt the Freddy Krueger zone.

(40:07):
But he cannot haunt anything that he didn't have, or
maybe you have unfettered access. And that's why suicide is
as rampant as it's ever been. Right, it could be
just malaised with the cur but if you know, you've
got some kind of vibe on this also very important
to die in clothes that look good on you because

(40:29):
you're in them, because that's forever.

Speaker 4 (40:31):
Yeah, a ghost wardrobe, no, no, but that's why.

Speaker 1 (40:37):
Yeah, it's weird because you'll never see like, That's why
I figured there's some bureaucracy because you never see a
modern dress on ghosts. It's always like from the eighteen hundreds,
or it's an old gunslinger or a lady who was
a maiden in a hotel. You never see like, you know,
it's never a ghost wearing Jordan's right that are tatted right. Yeah, ghost,
the attention horror, ghost least you just has supreme.

Speaker 23 (41:05):
There's a lot going on in my apartment at one
in the morning, and it was, like you said, a
lot of plates spinning, and I was, I.

Speaker 1 (41:11):
Was, I was concerned because people say the animals like not.

Speaker 23 (41:14):
Like they things like that, And she's never done that before.
She's never just sat and cried it. She's not O
D cat.

Speaker 4 (41:20):
You never confirmed you didn't think it was got that door.

Speaker 1 (41:24):
I I want to know what's out there, if there's
something out there, Okay, it's basically inviting the spirits in.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
No people, you might want to get one of those. Yeah, fish,
I just opened the door real quick and see what's
going on.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
Because ghost can get in.

Speaker 4 (41:38):
Then ghost can go through doors. You don't know that,
and you just.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
Made the boundary act of ghosts or whatever well under
your door.

Speaker 23 (41:48):
Yeah, if I opened the door, I'm inviting it. That's vampires,
not ghosts. Gart vampires have to be invited.

Speaker 4 (41:57):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
Yeah, I gotta get my you know, to get your
apparitions and fake characters rules down. I'm just going to
stop taking so much niquil. Is there a direct correlation
between the cold medicine and the concern over ghosts?

Speaker 4 (42:09):
Probably? Okay.

Speaker 1 (42:10):
I wonder if there's like a governing body over other
worldly creatures, because when you think about it, you're like, boy,
vampires got the short end of the stick because where
wolves can run around and do whatever they want to do,
they can terrorize the the country side, right.

Speaker 4 (42:26):
But then they get the run of the place. Ghosts seem.

Speaker 1 (42:30):
I think most ghost lore has implied that they're intangible
and can go through walls. I don't know if you
can find it whatever. It depends on the situation, because
like if you watched the Sixth Sense, then there was
kind of rules to how they Oh they can find
the laws of physics like an away, yeah, because they
don't know they're dead, right, But then you have vampires
who have to be invited in, which seems very gentlemanly,

(42:53):
you know, but they didn't any control over that.

Speaker 4 (42:54):
Obviously, vampires would want to go wherever they want to go.

Speaker 23 (42:56):
I think you're goofing. I thought that was a part
of the bit you have to invite a vampires.

Speaker 1 (43:01):
Yes, yeah, you never saw Salem's Lot or read the
book or anything. He's like, you have to let me in,
rescratch remember that, Like, yeah, I have to invite me in.
Who would do that? Vampires love parties, they always wanted.

Speaker 12 (43:14):
Vampires are also that you know, you don't know what's
the vampires, so you're just inviting someone in like you
would anybody.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
Retractable things. Well, when when the vampires outside, he's bald,
and he's got the fangs, like you know who you know,
let me in? Well, then you don't let him in.
But when he looks like a regular person and they're surrounded, yeah, hey,
come on in. That's vampire become a bath. Because I
know so much about vampires. I know a lot more
about because bats don't have to be invited in, because

(43:42):
who's going to invite a bat? I mean they're invited in.
You know they're in Belfries. Are Belfries still a thing?
I don't know? All right?

Speaker 19 (43:49):
Are there?

Speaker 4 (43:50):
There have to be. There's probably some Belfries in Giaga County. Right.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
What does a belfree It's isn't it at the top
of a barn? It's like a it's where the yeah,
Notre Dame or if you got one up in your church.
A bell tower, Well, it's the it's the thing at
the top that houses the bell. Okay, the whole thing
is the tower, the bell's room in the towers.

Speaker 23 (44:14):
We're learning, we're learning so much today. Yeah, No, I
have not invited a vampire, but that you know of,
there's always more time. No, I think there's been Like maybe.

Speaker 4 (44:27):
You're out there doing stuff, right, I mean, if.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
I accidentally brought home a vampire. Yeah, man, I would
be why I accidentally brought home a vampire?

Speaker 4 (44:36):
Sounds like a Lifetime original movie.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
No, that wouldn't be fun.

Speaker 4 (44:46):
Wouldn't be that bad.

Speaker 23 (44:48):
Do you have garlic in my fridge though? I just
take it, But it's like one of those prepared little jars,
so I just like scoop my hand out at him.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
Does it have the same effects garlics? I just like
and then get them.

Speaker 4 (45:01):
You're like, it's great for vampires?

Speaker 1 (45:02):
Or topping one really made a delicious little spread, right?

Speaker 15 (45:06):
I think?

Speaker 1 (45:07):
I think it would still work. I don't think you
have to have bulbs or cloves of garlic against vampires.
I think yeah, I think like powder work. I think
gar powder Okay, I think if there's essence of garlic
in it, it will now garlic bread.

Speaker 4 (45:24):
That's a good.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
Here here's how you know that you'll never bring home
a vampire. If you go out to dinner with someone,
get garlic. If they eat it, you can get a vampire.
If they don't. That's let me ask you. This would
garlic breath repel a vampire? So you've gone out Garlic
breath repels? Many tell you you don't need to kiss

(45:46):
on the mouth to bring a guy home. That's garlic breath.
Maybe garlic breath is very pervasive. You can talk to
someone after a meal and oh god, are you bringing
people home without kissing them?

Speaker 4 (45:57):
No, it was a joke. I just wondering.

Speaker 1 (45:59):
She just walks out to him and says, what would
you do if I unzipped your pants? Right now?

Speaker 23 (46:03):
It's like real life tender. I'm like left, left, left,
you come on, it goes ute done right.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
Yeah, she's Julia Robertson, pretty woman. No kissing only downstairs.
Stuff only downstairs.

Speaker 4 (46:16):
Because I live in.

Speaker 1 (46:18):
There might be ghostside. What's that banging noise up there?
You just worry about the banging noise down here?

Speaker 15 (46:24):
All right?

Speaker 4 (46:25):
That's Cheryl. She's going through some things.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
Yeah, I almost said her name.

Speaker 4 (46:29):
She's got her boy toy up there, right, it's close
to Cheryl.

Speaker 1 (46:34):
You know her name?

Speaker 4 (46:34):
Yeah, you don't just call her bang lady or you
know her name?

Speaker 2 (46:38):
No?

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Well, because I partner her spot, so I had to, like.

Speaker 4 (46:42):
Good guy does too.

Speaker 1 (46:45):
I put it in her garage. If you know, my
car parks into her garage.

Speaker 4 (46:51):
Okay, And.

Speaker 23 (46:53):
Yeah, so we met and I hey, if you're not
gonna be wrong here, there's got to be a way
to figure out.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
You go, Hey, I think you might have rats up there.
I always hear some kind of noise. Gave it to me.

Speaker 4 (47:05):
By the way, have you trained those rats to scream
your name?

Speaker 12 (47:08):
Because well, yeah, no, are you blackmailing your way into
a parking spot?

Speaker 13 (47:16):
I was.

Speaker 4 (47:19):
Like, it seems like you're not here that often and.

Speaker 1 (47:24):
Wedding ring and when I moved, are you gonna still
let the guy in the eye you come in with
like a short fire engine red Bob.

Speaker 23 (47:31):
And one one of the other guys who was in
the building was like, hey, you know, she's not around
a while.

Speaker 1 (47:35):
You can probably just park in her spot, no problems.

Speaker 23 (47:36):
So I started doing that, and then when she would
come around, she'd be aggravated that I was in her spot.

Speaker 1 (47:41):
So then she I went over there one day when.

Speaker 23 (47:43):
She was home and I was like, hey, I just
wanted to talk to you, you know, so and so
told me it was okay, I want to run it
by you, and she said, well, thank you for talking
to me. Yeah, I just wanted to ask first, and
she was like, yeah, this is my second place, and
you know, I've got some stuff going on, and I
was like, my second, she's probably in her fifties, and
she's like tiny.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
Oh she's that old. I would say she's probably late
forties early.

Speaker 4 (48:04):
You're giving a lot of details.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
No one knows.

Speaker 4 (48:06):
Yeah, maybe she's turning tricks maybe.

Speaker 19 (48:10):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (48:10):
Oh I thought you meant it was like a like
a suburban mom or something.

Speaker 1 (48:14):
Okay, who was taking you know, birdcage Hanka's area back.

Speaker 4 (48:17):
To her house.

Speaker 1 (48:17):
I could see her leaving like a yoga class and
coming there.

Speaker 4 (48:22):
Take a quick little shower, yeah, roller skating.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
Yeah, well no, because I felt like I could hear
it moving.

Speaker 4 (48:32):
Is it a carpeted apartment?

Speaker 1 (48:33):
Doesn't sound No, it's hard hardwood, Yeah, but it doesn't.
Yeah is it you? Are you the could you imagine
yourself out?

Speaker 4 (48:45):
It's the mister, he's the other man.

Speaker 19 (48:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (48:48):
I just see him like down the stand, like what
are you doing? Heres? Ago came to say she.

Speaker 4 (48:54):
Was coming back up about a Ryl's spot.

Speaker 1 (48:59):
Can we talk about this garage, saying she asked me
to come down and talk to you and I don't
want to. Hey, pilot Ryan, Hey, yeah, I was going
at the show a long time.

Speaker 4 (49:08):
No, see, Hey, what's going on?

Speaker 1 (49:09):
Ryan?

Speaker 4 (49:09):
How are you not much?

Speaker 19 (49:11):
I just wanted to share my almost ghost story I
had literally just as you guys are talking about ghosts
courtesy of the show. Yeah, So I was driving, I
was pulling into my garage and there's a set of
golf clubs that rests just in front of the hood
of my car. When I parts in my garage, I
must have nudged And so you guys were talking about,
you know, ghosts, So ghosts around my mind. I must

(49:31):
have nudged them. And as I looked down to my right,
you know, the floor of the passenger side to get
my groceries, my golf club's nuts just out of my parishica.
They fell over in my periphery and I collectively nearly
cracked my pants.

Speaker 1 (49:48):
Uh huh.

Speaker 4 (49:50):
Yeah, So it's like a haunted nine iron or what probably.

Speaker 19 (49:54):
Yeah, you know the reason why I keep, you know,
doing so poorly on the thirteenth, Well.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
Listen, it's a little known fact, but I do say
a little prayer to myself before every daily broadcast. If
just one person can crap their pants by the end
of today's show, I will have done my job. Ryan. So, yeah,
you almost got there. I appreciate the update though, Yes,
all right, thank you. All right, there's Pilot Ryan. I

(50:22):
don't think we've seen him since the West Park bar crawl.
A lot of people texting me their thoughts on the
vampire situation, the ghost situation.

Speaker 4 (50:31):
Vampire lore.

Speaker 1 (50:32):
People tell me they have a compulsion to count things,
hence the character on Sesame Street. So when you throw
sand or salt at them, it stops them because they
have to count the grains.

Speaker 4 (50:42):
Really, this person says exactly the vampire right, definitely gonna
suck your blood.

Speaker 1 (50:51):
In blood turn four to six thousand green. Speaking of moaning,
somebody posted a video This is somebody in Hungary. Some
people think it's fake, uh, but that a bathroom faucet
that makes pipes can make weird noises.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (51:07):
This person says that when you turn on the hot water,
it sounds like a man moaning, And it does sound
like someone off camera is making.

Speaker 4 (51:14):
The noise, but it's still funny if it's.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
Trying to make it so unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (51:35):
So okay.

Speaker 14 (51:42):
Some people say our country is more divided than ever,
but don't ask him.

Speaker 22 (51:48):
He sucks a mad Alli god on one point seven
w mms.

Speaker 10 (51:53):
Hey, Jessica, Hi, Hi, I just wanted to mention to
Erica that the symptoms she was describing that she experienced
last night sound like the beginning of anaphalactic shock. And
I deal with a lot of analogy, as does my daughter,

(52:14):
and it's been explained to us. Then when you start
having those feelings, if you're exposed to that, the next time,
you could get worse and you are more likely to
go into anaphleactic shock.

Speaker 4 (52:27):
Make sure you have a wooden spoon you can bite
down on. I think is what Jessica said.

Speaker 1 (52:31):
You're saying, I've got like a food allergy that I'm not.

Speaker 10 (52:34):
My My suspicion is that from I listened occasionally and
I've heard you talk about your health occasionally, and what
I would suspect is that you are dealing with something
that your body's not tolerating well, whether it's a food
or a chemical that's caused damage to your stomach. So
now you're reacting to many different things.

Speaker 4 (52:56):
So should she have an EpiPen nearby.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
You could do that.

Speaker 10 (53:01):
I mean, I think the best thing for you to do, Erica,
would be to get going with the Integrative Medicine Center.
Through the Cleveland Clinic. I was getting sicker and sicker
until I started working with them, And it's been two
years and I'm dramatically better.

Speaker 15 (53:18):
Can't wait to go back to the doctor because they've
done so much for me up until.

Speaker 4 (53:23):
Now asking for one of those autoinjectors.

Speaker 10 (53:25):
I felt the same way Erica. I spent twenty years
trying to sha out and I would see all these
specialists and spend all this money to find out nothing.
And integrative medicine is within the MD world, but it's
more of an alternative form of medicine where they're looking

(53:46):
at things more holistically and they're approaching things from a lifestyle, diet,
and supplement standpoints. Instead of treating you with you know,
medicines to stop symptoms, they're trying to understand why you
have symptoms and correct the problem.

Speaker 4 (54:02):
They treat the patient, not the symptoms.

Speaker 10 (54:04):
Correct And the Integrative Medicine Center at Cleveland Clinic has
helped so many people that have been in your situation
where you just feel like you have all these difficulties
and nobody can tell you why.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
Integrative Medical Center, Yeah, yeah, it's the.

Speaker 10 (54:22):
Integrative Medicine department through Cleveland clinic. They have locations in
a couple of different places, but there's one on the
east side right on Richmond Road, just by Beechwood, by
like Legacy Village.

Speaker 1 (54:35):
And yeah, I well, thank you.

Speaker 10 (54:37):
Really suggest that that might help you have some get
some answers and have some relief.

Speaker 1 (54:43):
That's how I grew up with my mom giving me
acupuncture and I was in kindergarten.

Speaker 10 (54:47):
Well, that's probably a very good thing. I'm a big
proponent of acupuncture as well.

Speaker 1 (54:51):
Sure, why not? You can chill out. Oh you look
like a porky pine when you lay in there, Jessica, Ooh,
it's a good one.

Speaker 10 (54:58):
That's actually one of the first treatments I when I
was started getting six twenty years ago.

Speaker 2 (55:03):
That helped.

Speaker 10 (55:04):
And you know, everyone said, why do you think it helped?
They said, I don't know, but I know it helped.

Speaker 1 (55:08):
Wait, what was that? Oh, you know what I'm gonna
start doing.

Speaker 4 (55:12):
I tried that a couple of weeks ago for the
first time, and it was it was nice. It's hurt, No, no,
it doesn't hurt.

Speaker 10 (55:19):
No, it's very minor. Having discomforts and needles usually not
in the right space. You just tell your practitioner and
they adjust it.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
You got to get those two inch square Korean needles.
Now those boys, you get those subdermal and twist them.

Speaker 15 (55:34):
Well, at this point, I've had two shots in in
the back of my neck that were like three inches long.
At this point, I think I've gotten over my fear
of needles just by sheer exposure to those.

Speaker 9 (55:47):
Yeah yeah, what was that?

Speaker 4 (55:48):
And you might have superpowers at this point?

Speaker 10 (55:50):
Is that to try to address the migraine?

Speaker 15 (55:52):
Yeah, yeah, they're trying to inject a steroid into my
neck to see if maybe it was coming from a cervical.

Speaker 1 (56:00):
You know, a circle you want to hear.

Speaker 4 (56:02):
They know your cervix is not in your neck erica,
don't they? Uh?

Speaker 10 (56:08):
With But most likely you would benefit from avoiding conventional
food and switching to organic diet to get the chemicals out,
and limiting or discontinuing gluten and dairy, not because that's
your allergy, but because when your god is damaged, the
human body does not digest gluten and dairy well in
the first place.

Speaker 15 (56:28):
You know what, I've already kind of headed that direction,
and when I feel well, it's because I avoid those things.

Speaker 1 (56:34):
So yeah, because your body is not full of parts. Right,
I'm fart free my diet she's putin free.

Speaker 10 (56:45):
She said, I highly recommend it.

Speaker 1 (56:48):
Well, thank you very much. I really that's some good feedback.
I appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (56:51):
Thank you, Jessica Blos.

Speaker 1 (56:55):
I know you guys don't care. It's boring to you,
but no, listen, that's how I grew up. My mom's
a chiropractor, and I grew up with all that. It's
just alternative medicine, is how I grew up. Everybody making
fun of me, but that was the only kid that
was never sick. It's sad.

Speaker 15 (57:07):
But at this point, it's like, I literally feel like
I should just outsource my medical issues because it's like
that the people that have tried to help me haven't
done anything for me.

Speaker 1 (57:15):
So the doctors that I have gone to, I mean,
I'm paying thousands of dollars always going to.

Speaker 4 (57:21):
Turn it over to public opinion.

Speaker 1 (57:22):
That's always the best way to get anything. Really, doctors
are doing such a great we want to turn it
over to the masses. People have been there before.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
You know.

Speaker 15 (57:32):
Yeah, I never thought i'd say I would avoid going
to the doctors for help with the problem, But all
they want to do is perscuribe me in medication that
gives me side effects?

Speaker 4 (57:45):
So I did avoid going to the doctor.

Speaker 16 (57:47):
Yeah, medical advice and consultations are expensive, so if you
could call one of you.

Speaker 1 (57:53):
Can ignore everything and you won't get tested.

Speaker 16 (57:54):
So medical advising compulsations are expensive. So it's really good
that you could call into a show and get some advice. Yeah,
but isn't there like an at home AIDS kit?

Speaker 1 (58:03):
Now everything you can spin into a tube and you
send it off and they send it back to you
and you don't have a that either. Why a doctor's visit?
I never said that, but you aren't doing it. You're
putting I care about you and I want you to
get tested.

Speaker 4 (58:18):
It's not the words in your mouth were worried about.
It's other things.

Speaker 1 (58:23):
I'm never going to stop hassling you about it till
you go get tested. I have no problem with that.

Speaker 4 (58:27):
You'll enjoy this, poundcake.

Speaker 1 (58:28):
I I am going to stop hassling you because you're
a grown ass man and you can decide what you're
going to do with your life.

Speaker 16 (58:34):
Well, thanks, I have no problem getting tested. That's not
a problem, all right? Well mother, hen over here is
that problem.

Speaker 15 (58:39):
I'm not going to We have people that we know
that work could be already that can make it, you know,
very easy for.

Speaker 1 (58:47):
You to do all that. I understand. All right, on
the show Friday, I have him come in. They can
test him right here. We'll find out if he has AIDS.
What's on the show. What's the turnaround time? I think
for the AIDS tests.

Speaker 15 (59:01):
Yeah, in the documentary that said AIDS documentary I watched
for World Aid's Day, people were getting They had like
a mobile like van and they just like.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
The hivan like a quick Yeah. It was done outside
the gate clubs they had one.

Speaker 3 (59:14):
We went.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
This was like two years ago. We went. We were
going to this club and they had the van rightside.
They're like, you guys want to get tested? Were like sure,
you know outside of the straight clubs, you'll walk out.
They'll have the fullaffel wagon. They'll have like a trurombile
taco truck outside poncakes clubs.

Speaker 4 (59:29):
It's all HIV testing.

Speaker 1 (59:31):
It's not just my club. But we sat in there,
we got tested and then we went inside to go drink.
It was like a very odd experience. We were like, okay,
well get that. They're trying to make it that easy
for people so that the epidemic ends. And there's also
this thing called prep. I don't I don't know how
many people know about it, but you could literally take
a pill and it like reduces your chances of like
ninety eight percent of like contracting HIV.

Speaker 4 (59:53):
How does that work?

Speaker 1 (59:55):
You have to get a prescription for it, so I
haven't been into the doctor to get it. But yeah,
why didn't they prescribe it to everyone?

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
Then?

Speaker 4 (01:00:00):
Who's high risk?

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
I don't know if it's that. I don't know. Well,
it's not affordable, it's probably mean, No, that's not true.
I know a lot of like gay guys that are
on it, but like I just haven't been to the
doctor to get one. So okay, but that's a cool
I mean, you could wipe out the AIDS epidemic and
like a generation everyone started taking Well that's why it's
I'm skeptical that it's that simple that you take a pill.
And it's because otherwise they would have done that, like

(01:00:22):
they would have said, we figured it out, here's a pill.

Speaker 16 (01:00:24):
Yeah, but I think it's fairly new, so they're still
you know, testing it. Yeah, but you said you got
a lot of friends who were on it. Yeah, but
they're in beta and your are your friends guinea.

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
Pigs for it?

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
No, but like.

Speaker 16 (01:00:36):
Negative, I'm sure I've got a tail now. But you know,
but no, I mean it's better. It's a better defense
than none. Why not if you do that in condoms,
then you should pretty much assume that you're not going
to get anything.

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
Okay, Well again, I'm on record is saying I'm not.

Speaker 4 (01:00:50):
Going to hassle you.

Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
That's that's fine, I'm fine. Well this one over here
wants to hassle you. She just told you she's gonna
have me. I just haven't been able to get in yet.
I've been busy every day that I was supposed to go.

Speaker 4 (01:01:03):
Erica slogan is every day is a had some.

Speaker 1 (01:01:08):
That's me. That's right. I'm sorry.

Speaker 15 (01:01:12):
I just I care about him, and I hear all
about his sexcapades or lack thereof.

Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
Is this year this year, but like not in the
past couple of months. But that doesn't you can contract
aids anytime.

Speaker 4 (01:01:28):
She's trying to tell seasonal, I know that seasonally it's
eight season.

Speaker 1 (01:01:34):
It's the mos.

Speaker 13 (01:01:36):
Time.

Speaker 1 (01:01:42):
It's all good.

Speaker 4 (01:01:43):
I appreciate the love. I think what what Erica is
trying to.

Speaker 1 (01:01:49):
Subtly say, is that she's going to miss hearing your
sex caapades while we're off. Do you know this is okay?

Speaker 4 (01:02:59):
Letter Skinner, I love it. That's good. Take another This
song is older than you. Take another guess the song
is older than me. It is, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
That's a great guess. I think of a really old
fan mid eighties, thiss early eighties. Actually nothing, Yeah, what
you do?

Speaker 22 (01:03:31):
What you do?

Speaker 1 (01:03:33):
I'm trying to think of like my directory of bands,
and nothing just really comes to mind. Have you ever
heard of the band Iron Maiden? Yes, yes, okay, this
is Iron Maiden, one of the bands that frequently gets
mentioned when they talk about whatever this perceived bias against
eighties rock bands are in that rock and roll Hall
of fame, whether it's real or imagined. The fact that

(01:03:54):
Iron Maiden isn't in the rock and roll Hall of
Fame boggles the mind. Poundcake's guest of Leonard Skinnard is fantastic.
They went from sweet Home, Alabama to aces High, to
the rhyme of the ancient mariner, they skirt made sweet Home, Alabama. Yes,
who may welcome to the jungle. That would be guns
and or Roses. Can you name one other song by

(01:04:18):
Guns n' Roses? No, just name one of the rock songs,
just so I can back up here. So you thought
this whole time that Welcome to the Jungle was Leonard
skinnerd Yeah, okay, play playing Leonard Skinnard and let's see it,
but don't play it right away. Play a few songs
and have him guess when it's Leonard Skinnered. Oh, okay,

(01:04:40):
I'm gonna do poundcakes.

Speaker 4 (01:04:42):
Oh, this is old school?

Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
Game is called? Is this Leonard Skinnyard? Meaning with pound cake?
This game is old school?

Speaker 4 (01:04:50):
Well, yeah, Leonard Skynyard. I mean they're barely a band.

Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
I think they might have finally done their farewell tour
or something. So am I saying yes or no?

Speaker 4 (01:04:59):
Is this guess?

Speaker 2 (01:05:02):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
That's correct? This band called Lynch Mob. This is George
Lynch who was in dock and when he went off
to do his own thing foreign a band called Lynch Mob, which, boy,
you talk about political correctness. It's his name, George Lynch.
But with everything else going on, when Black Lives Matter
was blown up everywhere this summer, he goes, yeah, I
can't call my vand Lynch Mob anymore.

Speaker 4 (01:05:23):
Yeah, it's your name. Yeah, I can't do it anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:05:27):
Okay, let me find something else here for you. Is
this Leonyard SKINNERD See, it's not going to matter to you.

(01:05:49):
When the singing kicks in, that's not going to tell you.

Speaker 4 (01:05:51):
I do need the singing.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
I want some words. I gets some words. It takes
a second, but yeah, again, I don't think it's going
to help you. But God, there's such a long introu.

Speaker 11 (01:06:05):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:06:05):
Is this Leonard Skinner? A little closer to the.

Speaker 2 (01:06:13):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Now, what makes you think that this is not Leonard Skinner?
Because it was very subtle in the beginning. You're correct,
this is not Leonard Skinner. This is masted on coverings,
easy top, great song called just Got Paid?

Speaker 4 (01:06:41):
Is this Leonard Skinnard?

Speaker 1 (01:06:43):
Yes? This is a band called three eleven. Okay, this
doesn't even sound like an old I was like the odds,
So I was like, he's not gonna do three No
Leonard Skinners? Right, Okay, how's wrong? This is not Leonard Skinner?

Speaker 4 (01:07:22):
It's correct? Is it the Meat Puppets? I didn't even
know that was a band. You didn't know the Meat Puppets.

Speaker 4 (01:11:20):
They were, what the hell?

Speaker 1 (01:11:22):
That's not the full thing.

Speaker 16 (01:11:25):
I was pooping yesterday and I was grolling through Twitter
as I usually do, and there was a Twitter thread
about how famous Michael Jackson was, and they were like,
no star today could ever compare to. They were like,
I don't think people understand how famous Michael Jackson was.
There wasn't a personal truth that didn't know who.

Speaker 1 (01:11:39):
He was, true, and he's like him and Michael Jordan
could go anywhere on the globe and get instantly recognized.

Speaker 4 (01:11:43):
Like Muhammad Ali is up there.

Speaker 16 (01:11:45):
Yeah, he was on his balcony and it was just
like one hundred and thirty thousand people flooding the streets.
And this was pre social media, you know, pre like
what it was a spectacle it was, and they just
put him to his hotel room just randomly, and that's
what drove him crazy, Like he couldn't do things normal
where he had to buy a grocery store, like rent
time in a grocery store just to go and pretend

(01:12:07):
like he's a regular person in grocery shop.

Speaker 1 (01:12:09):
I didn't know he ran at a grocery strive. I
remember he was walking through Vegas and he was like
I got that, I got that already bought that. This
is like I think this is just like a story
that's out there, but I don't know if it's true
or not. But it's like that he would go grocery shopping,
but like he would do in like off hours or
do it, you know, in his own store, and like
hire people to be in there and not acknowledge him,

(01:12:29):
just so he could feel what it's like to grocery shop.

Speaker 16 (01:12:32):
Wow, do you think that there will ever be like
a star that shines that bright ever again.

Speaker 1 (01:12:37):
Cody pound Cake Brown. No, I don't want to on
his new Fox game show. Is this Leonard Skinner?

Speaker 19 (01:12:44):
If we now returned to something barely worth your time
already in.

Speaker 1 (01:12:49):
Progress, the whole thing is pointless.

Speaker 4 (01:12:52):
The Allen Cox Show on one hundred MMS.

Speaker 1 (01:12:57):
I'm not a thoughts and prayers guy, but we need
to come up with something new to say. Why Well,
because you want to. There's got to be something to
say that expresses your concern. But isn't stupid and trite
like thoughts and prayers that's become so cliche now it's
a punchline. There's got to be something you can say

(01:13:20):
to extend your concern or condolences should they be required,
without launching into an anti gun Ti rade, you know
what I mean? Like, it's got to be I would
never say thoughts in prayers to someone, but you know,
I grew up Catholic and it seems natural to say, well,
we're praying for you, yeah, Keith, you and my thought
I always say sending good vibes, which sounds too like

(01:13:40):
hang ten, you know, but I don't know that right.
I don't know what to say like friends, of mine
in my heart thinking of you. I don't know, it's
got to be in my voice though, Like it's a joke.

Speaker 4 (01:13:49):
We're in my heart. It's a joke with my wife.

Speaker 1 (01:13:52):
I go because I was my son's going through like
his first big breakup, and I told my wife, you know,
I go, you know me, I'm not the greatest consoler
in the world. Do you know a breakup?

Speaker 19 (01:14:04):
Huh.

Speaker 1 (01:14:06):
I just don't know what to say to people like
I think I'm a relatively articulate pal, but I don't know.
You're not a consoler. I'm not al.

Speaker 4 (01:14:18):
I just don't.

Speaker 1 (01:14:19):
It doesn't there are some people who are great at it.
And and Gwen's like, well, you're just not empathetic, and
I go, well, I mean it's not it's I don't
It's not that I don't want to be, but you're not.
I'm not, like I think a lot, and I don't
necessarily think that's a bad thing. It's just some people
just don't have that, like wink. I don't know. Well,

(01:14:41):
first of all, I got some thoughts on this, as
you might have suspected. First of all, way too many
people call themselves empathetic, all right, which means, which means
you can put yourself a very fine distinction between sympathetic
and empathetic. Right empathetic, you can put yourself elf in
someone else's shoes, which quite literally none of us can do.

(01:15:05):
So when people go well, I'm very empathetic, and I'm like,
now you're you're overly sensitive, and you think that that
translates to other people whatever. So I'm just not wired
that way because I grew up in a really no
whining household. If there's something wrong, you fix it right,
get yourself out of it. That's how we grew up.

(01:15:27):
So as an adult, I'm like, well, change your situation,
fix it, you know. But as a parent, as a husband,
I can't go, well, honey, fix it, like that's my job.
So you know, I'm not the most empathetic person, but
I am envious of people who are because that's a
I think it's a very I think that's a very

(01:15:50):
valuable quality to have. Now, when somebody says I feel
people's pain, I don't know what that means. I'm extraordinarily
I'm very skeptical of that guy.

Speaker 15 (01:15:58):
I feel heartbroken when people close to me are going
through a heartbreaking situation.

Speaker 1 (01:16:04):
I feel it.

Speaker 15 (01:16:05):
I mean, it's not even something I can describe. It's like,
if something horrible happens to someone I care about.

Speaker 1 (01:16:11):
I feel that pain. I just do.

Speaker 4 (01:16:14):
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 15 (01:16:15):
I mean, I have sympathy. I'm not in their situation,
but I feel pain when they feel pain.

Speaker 4 (01:16:21):
How does that manifest itself?

Speaker 21 (01:16:25):
Just it?

Speaker 1 (01:16:25):
Maybe you teach me.

Speaker 15 (01:16:26):
It's like it depresses them. You know, it depends on
what the situation is. But you know, my dad's had
a really stressful year, and I feel I feel his
hurt over the certain situations that have happened to him
this year.

Speaker 4 (01:16:40):
I definitely interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:16:42):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:16:42):
It's made me sad that he's been sad. Well, it
makes me sad.

Speaker 2 (01:16:46):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:16:46):
When I was talking to my son, I said, I
feel I'm very sad for you to be going through this.
But I said, this is not the first. Well, I said,
it's the first I go. But this isn't the last
time You're going to go through this too. I'm pragmatic
to a fault, and that's not console in any way.
I try because you got to say something, But you know,
I'm not the like get up and HUGGI guy, Oh.

Speaker 4 (01:17:08):
You're not that Dad, that I'm talking outside my fami.

Speaker 1 (01:17:12):
No, like you know outside Phil.

Speaker 4 (01:17:17):
My wife.

Speaker 1 (01:17:18):
I will, of course I don't know or my children.
But when people are like, oh my god, like you
just said, I feel so and so is pain. Can
you give us no idea what that means? Can we
roll play this like Poundcake's going through a breakup. He
needs you to help him, Yes, console him. So, Poundcake,
you just broke up. You actually had someone that you

(01:17:38):
thought was the one. So you're gonna be acting in
this too, okay, and you need to be consoled. And
in this scenario, this is not Alan, this is your dad,
and Alan, this is your son. Poundcake's my son in
this scenario. In this scenario, he's my son. He's because
I'm not gonna ask you to go through what you
went through with your son. That's a little per But

(01:18:00):
I feel like if we were to set this scene up,
we can get an idea of you in that situation.

Speaker 4 (01:18:05):
Of how terrible of a consolo you are.

Speaker 1 (01:18:09):
Okay, yeah, I would. I would just say to you
when I said to my son, well, let's see what
I Okay, Dad, I have to tell you something. Yeah,
remember Verrik that I brought over for Why are you laughing, Dad?
This is serious. I'm sorry, son. Go ahead, remember Eastern
Dinner when I brought verc homb I?

Speaker 4 (01:18:26):
Do I remember that?

Speaker 1 (01:18:28):
And you guys all said that you liked him. I
don't remember that you said that you liked Okay, Yeah,
of course he was. He was a fine young man.
He was very nice. Yeah, he ended things with me. Oh,
I'm so sorry to hear that. Yeah, right right before Thanksgiving,
right before the holidays.

Speaker 16 (01:18:43):
He probably didn't want to buy me gift with a broke,
cheap ass, but he ended things with me, and I'm
so heartbroken.

Speaker 4 (01:18:50):
He was my first love. Dad, Oh, that that sucks.

Speaker 1 (01:18:54):
Well, you know what, There's always one thing I've learned,
because I didn't get to break up with anyone until
I was well into my twenties. I always got dumped.
I never got to break up with anybody. They would
always get rid of me first. And you know what
I learned, There's always a next person. Always you think
it's the last person you're ever gonna be with, and

(01:19:16):
that's silly. There's always a next person. So you gotta
be looking ahead to that. You have to live in
however you feel now because it's very instructive to be
in pain. Life's mostly pain. Get that out of the way, right,
This a little flashes of fun and enjoyment. Life's mostly pain.
So if you live in that and you learn something
from it, you apply that to the next person. God,

(01:19:39):
you're so pragmatic, so you go find the next right,
But it's all pragnant. These are all things you feel better.
That didn't help at all. Well, here's my listen, here's my.

Speaker 4 (01:19:50):
Thund Bill wants to help you out, pound Cake.

Speaker 1 (01:19:52):
Yeah, this'll Rike was the one and you lost him
and that sucks. So just know that you'll never find
anyone like him again.

Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
Right, bravo. See that's dyl and I are cut from
the same cloth. When it comes to that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:05):
All I'm saying to my son is, I go, look,
this is not something that's going to pluck your heart strings.
You are already gonna feel bad enough, right, I'm trying
to give you some When I told him, I go,
this is all logical stuff I'm giving you, and this
isn't a logical time. I understand that, but I'm I
can't say or do anything that's going to make you
feel better about that. Maybe sometimes it's just good to listen.

Speaker 4 (01:20:27):
Did your parents and I listened?

Speaker 1 (01:20:29):
We talked. Yeah, but do you ever remember your parents
making you feel better after a breakup?

Speaker 19 (01:20:35):
Not once?

Speaker 1 (01:20:36):
I don't think it's possible.

Speaker 3 (01:20:37):
That's my.

Speaker 1 (01:20:41):
I take it as I think that it's insulting to
try to tell somebody what they should do, how they
should feel. I'm just going to tell them here's kind
of how things go. Here's you know you can you
can benefit yourself from my wisdom as.

Speaker 16 (01:20:54):
A grown ass man. It has to be like dad,
I didn't like her any like as a day. I
didn't like her anyways.

Speaker 4 (01:20:59):
Why do you say that I met her like one time?

Speaker 1 (01:21:02):
Her loss? All I knew of her was that she
was always jerking him around. I said, first of all,
remember that's a good girlfriend. She I said.

Speaker 4 (01:21:09):
She does not control your life, and she doesn't control
what you do.

Speaker 1 (01:21:14):
Lost is virginity to her?

Speaker 4 (01:21:15):
You do, I'm sure he did.

Speaker 1 (01:21:16):
That means something, you know, and great, But guess what
you're gonna be, I said, you are. You're months away
from going to college. You're gonna be neck deep in
girls guaranteed. Yes, of course, he's a super smart, good looking,
tall dude. I'm like, you're gonna clean up in college.

Speaker 4 (01:21:35):
So yeah, he'll be fine.

Speaker 1 (01:21:37):
I'm like, don't you know, Yeah, this sucks and you
gotta go the only way through is the only way
out is through. It is good deal to turn on
Morrissey and be sad for a while and then you'll
go on on the other side or whatever. But again,
my point is, I never remember my parents saying something
that made me feel better.

Speaker 4 (01:21:53):
I go, oh, here's what I do.

Speaker 1 (01:21:55):
Your brain is still literally forming when you're seventeen, right,
it's still you know, you don't know what the hell's
going on. My oldest daughter went through a real tough
breakup and she takes everything so hard that one of
the most emotional people I've ever met on this entire planet.
I'll go top five, top fun. Yeah, I'll put anybody

(01:22:15):
up against her. She's so emotional. She had a boyfriend.
He broke up with her and she was out of
her mindset.

Speaker 4 (01:22:23):
How long were they together?

Speaker 1 (01:22:26):
A year in high school years, right, so like it's
a long long time, right, she thought they were gonna
beat that.

Speaker 4 (01:22:33):
She's like, I got my one.

Speaker 1 (01:22:35):
I was the first person ever to or I'm in
this generation where everybody goes around with all these people
and the first boyfriend I really had was gonna be
my one, and she was devastated and nothing I could
say was helping. She wouldn't even listen. So I was like,
go get in the car right now. And she's like,
why are you big mean to me? I'm like, just

(01:22:55):
get in the car right now. And I took her
down to the metro Parks. I got out of the car.
I said, throw her into the river. No, no, I said,
all right, see that shallow grave. Drive And she's like what,
I'm like, drive. She was fifteen and a half and
she was like, I you want me to drive right now?
I'm like, yeah, to teach you how to drive right now.

(01:23:16):
And I took around like a little driving lesson for
about half an hour, and she'd stopped crying, and she
just stopped breathing heavily, like she got into driving because it's.

Speaker 4 (01:23:26):
Something to distract her. You calmed her down. So I
calmed her down. And that's what I did. And it's
not like I said anything.

Speaker 12 (01:23:31):
I just took away what she was super focused on
right and gave her something to you to show her
that there's other things that you want on this world
other than.

Speaker 4 (01:23:42):
Just a boyfriend.

Speaker 1 (01:23:42):
Well, so I told her that's what I told my son.
I said, distraction is a big help too. I said,
you've got at the time. I'm like, there's midterms all
that stuff. I said, hang out with your friends. Because
he's like, I just get tired this past week. And
he's like, I'm just tired of everybody going, oh, we
should hang out with you guys, like his friends don't
know that or whatever. I'm like, Okay, just just tell

(01:24:02):
people you're taking a break, even if it's not true.
I'm like, the full story.

Speaker 4 (01:24:06):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:24:06):
I'm an explanation. I'm like, that's the economical you know.
There's also and I'm sorry about Verick. Yes, he will
help him. Will have the ability to make this into
a humorous situation. And instead of actually doing feelings, you
make jokes. Whatever hands you through it. It's gotten me through.
That's how I process things. I'm sad about something, here's

(01:24:29):
a sex that's not bad.

Speaker 4 (01:24:30):
That's funny.

Speaker 1 (01:24:31):
How many people can generate a living off of their
character flaws. You're welcome, You're welcome, family, Hey, Mike, Hello, Hey.

Speaker 19 (01:24:44):
What's up show?

Speaker 1 (01:24:45):
How are you doing well?

Speaker 17 (01:24:49):
I just I just wanted to say, you know, between
you and Erica's point about being empathetic or sympathetic to
somebody else's plight, I think, at least for me, it
always goes back to how I want to be treated
in that situation. So if I'm upset, I am one
of those people that I'm more closed off. I don't

(01:25:11):
want you to bother me. I don't want somebody to
touch me. I don't want hugs. I don't want a
shoulder to cry on. I just want to be alone.
So when I see people that are upset, I tend
to just assume that they want to be alone, they
want their space, And I think people that are more
willing to reach out and give those hugs are the

(01:25:34):
people that I need them. What would be more happy, Eric,
I love you would be more happy to accept the
hug and also be more willing to give it when
it's needed.

Speaker 4 (01:25:48):
So I think that's I guess I mean a listen.

Speaker 1 (01:25:50):
I've never been comfortable assuming that other people think like
I do, because I've been proven time and time again
that that's largely not the case. So I understand to.

Speaker 15 (01:26:00):
Have it though, Like you're used to how you respond
to things, So you're not going to respond.

Speaker 1 (01:26:04):
Differently when it's not you going through something, you know
what I mean, Like you're no, but I understand that.
I'm that a lot of people are not like me.
I'm self aware to know that it's not like, well,
just do what I do.

Speaker 15 (01:26:17):
I mean, I would really fake though, if like you
were the guy that doesn't like the hugs and you're
not emotional, but you're like Erica, you're upset, come here,
I'll give you a hug, I would know, No came
and hugged me.

Speaker 1 (01:26:27):
I'd be like, you're being faked. But I think that
you have to be willing to like learn things and
evolve a little bit too, and not like cocoon yourself
your entire life. Yeah, but I mean it would let's
just put this way.

Speaker 15 (01:26:39):
It would be out of character for you to just
hug someone that wasn't a member of your family out.

Speaker 1 (01:26:44):
Of the blue, you know, of course, like, for example,
because it's a bad precedent.

Speaker 4 (01:26:50):
Erica's had, you know, a really tough year. I hear, and.

Speaker 12 (01:26:56):
Sometimes you know what, we'll have our our discussions, whether
it's over the phone or whether it's in the side
studio before the show we'll have. You know, you'll just
tell me something going on in your life and not
even just event, but just make me aware. And you
get emotional from time to time. And our relation is
not such where I'm gonna like wrap you up in

(01:27:18):
a hug and be like it's all gonna be okay, girl, Right,
you just gotta get through it. That's what That's not
our relationship. So I just tried to check in as
much as I can. So that's that's my way of saying, Hey,
I know you're going through this tough time. I don't
know what to say exactly right, I'm just gonna let
you know I'm here for whatever you need me for.

Speaker 15 (01:27:38):
I will say, you definitely see the different types of
people's like consoling styles when you go through something, because
I have friends that like they just act like nothing
has happened, and that you know, for half a year
of my life I wasn't completely absolutely like dead in
my bed, but like then, I have other friends that
have been there every single step of the way that
are like checking in there, They're telling me, they love me, they're.

Speaker 3 (01:28:01):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 15 (01:28:02):
There's just and I've come to realize, like I can't
be mad at the people that aren't giving me the
comfort that I feel that I want, because that's just
not how they operate.

Speaker 1 (01:28:10):
But as fond of fake it till you make it,
as people seem to be, just do that. Well, you
don't need it, don't they now? But people say love
saying fake it till you make it. When it comes
to other things, fake.

Speaker 4 (01:28:21):
It till you make it.

Speaker 15 (01:28:22):
Really understand like people's like relationship styles or like how
they act in relationships when you go through something like
it's been, really it's been really eye opening. Like I
have certain friends that I thought for sure that i'd
be calling up crying and they'd be there for me,
and like they just weren't.

Speaker 1 (01:28:38):
And I don't even resent them for it. That's just
not them. And I only learned that through this situation.

Speaker 4 (01:28:44):
Alan, you're old, you've lost your sense of empathy.

Speaker 1 (01:28:47):
You are half right. I am old, But I never
had a sense of empathy. I was not an empathetic
young man either. I always get the hell out of
my way because I got stuff to do. Hellan, look
at Mary Santora's latest tweet, what'd you say?

Speaker 4 (01:28:59):
Don't mind me?

Speaker 1 (01:29:00):
I'm just bawling my goddamn eyeballs out at brust Almighty
when he's telling God that he just wants his ex
to find true happiness in love. But Mary is always crying.
I just that's something that I've come to accept. Here's
how often her hashtag crushing it refers to her eyes
in her eyelids.

Speaker 12 (01:29:18):
Whenever I text somebody about Mary, my phone auto corrects
Mary to all caps because of how often I yell
at her to text, uh.

Speaker 1 (01:29:27):
Huh hey, Jeanie, by what's up?

Speaker 4 (01:29:32):
Gie?

Speaker 1 (01:29:33):
I just wanted to share my thoughts.

Speaker 19 (01:29:37):
I'm the.

Speaker 23 (01:29:39):
Well wishes that you might want to love and somebody
and not.

Speaker 19 (01:29:43):
Quite know what to say.

Speaker 4 (01:29:44):
Mm hmmm, do tell many many.

Speaker 19 (01:29:48):

many friends. What I would like somebody? You wish me?

Speaker 13 (01:30:01):

Speaker 4 (01:30:03):
You know, you know, like a like a condolence, an
appropriate condolence.

Speaker 1 (01:30:11):
Right, yes, yes, yes? Uh?

Speaker 19 (01:30:13):
You religious than god?

Speaker 1 (01:30:17):
H And if you're not, okay, that's exact question. Jeanie
might have hung up on herself. All right, thank you, Jeannie.
The thing if you're not religious, then it's.

Speaker 2 (01:30:33):
Oh boy.

Speaker 1 (01:30:36):
Rick listen, Jeanie sounds like she's the last person standing, husband, kids, friends,
it's all gone.

Speaker 4 (01:30:45):
Wow. Yeah, I am not a religious person. So that's uh.

Speaker 1 (01:30:49):
She really cut out the worst possible time. She's ready
to drop some knowledge on me and tell me what
a proper secular condolence is other than my condolence. Funny
to you?

Speaker 15 (01:31:00):
Rick?

Speaker 1 (01:31:01):
Are you laughing at my cane? Rick's just chuckling away?

Speaker 2 (01:31:06):

Study show that listening to classical music can temporarily.

Speaker 4 (01:33:55):
Raise your IQ.

Speaker 22 (01:33:57):
I feel pretty smart if you're looking for the I
did a fact just stay tuned.

Speaker 4 (01:34:02):
Yelling show on seven.

Speaker 1 (01:34:06):
This wedding that we're going to in Denver is outdoors,
and we were like, oh, how should I dress? I'm
like packing up my suit. It's gonna be ninety one
degrees damn. So I'm like, oh, maybe just that's the thing.
Watching all the football games yesterday and every place else
was nice for the most part, and then the Browns
game was just trash. Like I was shivering watching them
being in that rain, even though I know it wasn't

(01:34:28):
like the coldest day, but just being in that rain
for that long, just that's the same.

Speaker 4 (01:34:34):
It's miserable. I did a game at.

Speaker 1 (01:34:37):
Kent State a few years ago where I was like
the public, Like I was down on the field like
doing the house announcing and introducing people stuff like that,
and it rained the entire game.

Speaker 19 (01:34:48):
And it was.

Speaker 1 (01:34:51):
Like sitting there trying to work this microphone while you're
just getting rained down. Everybody's gone pretty much so you're
talking to no one. That was the good thing is
kind of have to do very well because everybody.

Speaker 4 (01:35:04):
Got paid.

Speaker 23 (01:35:05):
I didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:35:05):
I didn't plan ahead. I didn't know it was going
to be chili over the weekend.

Speaker 15 (01:35:09):
I didn't like I wore. I brought like a off
the shoulder dressed jumpsuit thing for my I didn't bring
a jacket like nothing, so I had to like borrow
my mom's like jacket because it was it was chill,
rather chilly outside of Chicago.

Speaker 1 (01:35:26):
Was in Naperville, the city that's called frighteningly clean bygo
magazine it is. You go to Naperville, it's like, you
streets are clean, you can get down and inspect the
culverts and you're like, I could eat off fees.

Speaker 15 (01:35:41):
It's a nice it's a nice suburb. But yeah, I
wouldn't say any drama went down. My parents like wanted
to make sure that they didn't like have any fights
with anyone over the moving drama, and it didn't, thankfully,
it did not, And it was just a beautiful day.
But you could tell there was some tension between my
uncle and aunt my parents, like they kind of like

(01:36:02):
they they're normally so like, you know, they hang out together,
you know, yeah, they're very chummy normally, and they kind of, Oh,
they were sitting at a different table than my parents.

Speaker 1 (01:36:12):
Because your uncle is splitting town and leaving your dad
and with your to care for your grandmother. I do
have two funny grandma stories.

Speaker 4 (01:36:20):
Is there any other kind?

Speaker 20 (01:36:21):
Really?

Speaker 2 (01:36:22):
No?

Speaker 15 (01:36:22):
I know, my grandmother is the last kind of you know,
the matriarch of the family, the last grandparents standing. And
you know, she doesn't hear that well, but she's still
very sharp as attack. You know, she's in a lot
of pain, but she's she's sharp mentally. If you can,
she can hear what you're saying, she.

Speaker 1 (01:36:39):
Can have a conversation with you.

Speaker 15 (01:36:41):
And people though unfortunately like they have to go do
something and they'll just leave my grandma in the wheelchair
in the middle of a.

Speaker 1 (01:36:48):
Room by herself.

Speaker 15 (01:36:49):
And I'm like, well, just because she can't hear and
she's stuck in a wheelchair doesn't mean she wants to
sit there by herself, not.

Speaker 1 (01:36:54):
Talking to anyone for a while.

Speaker 15 (01:36:56):
So I noticed that someone had left my grandma just
sitting across the road. But I'm across the room, but
she can't hear me if I was going to try
to talk to her.

Speaker 1 (01:37:04):
So then I move.

Speaker 15 (01:37:06):
I walk her over to sit down to you know,
to be next to her, and I have Ian pull
up her wheelchair so I can talk right in her ear.
And just as I'm about to start talking to her,
I'm asking her how she's doing whatever, my dad comes
out of nowhere and starts to wheel her away to
somewhere else, not realizing that we were in the middle
of a conversation. And she turns over her shoulder and says,

(01:37:27):
catch me if you can, and.

Speaker 1 (01:37:30):
Rolls away, and I'm like, do my grandma just drop
the mic on me. Yeah, because your her granddaughter has
a walker.

Speaker 2 (01:37:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:37:37):
Yes, but she was like a pair of you guys there,
he has read me the filth that lady.

Speaker 4 (01:37:42):
And I was like, okay, So then I bet you
weren't able to catch her.

Speaker 21 (01:37:46):
I didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:37:47):
Oh you didn't. Yeah, no, my dad wheeled her quite quickly.
She's on big wheels, you're on two low ones.

Speaker 4 (01:37:51):
Yes, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:37:52):
But then later in the evening, you know, she gets carsick.

Speaker 15 (01:37:55):
And it was about forty five minutes from my parents'
house where the venue was, and Ian and I left
the wedding early.

Speaker 1 (01:38:02):
We drove ourselves, so then we went home. We went
to bed. I woke up the next morning.

Speaker 15 (01:38:06):
My dad's like he just walks out of the bedroom
with a look on his face like he's seen a ghost.

Speaker 1 (01:38:10):
And I'm like, what's okay?

Speaker 15 (01:38:13):
Yeah, he walked out of his bedroom. I get up
in the morning, we're getting packed up to leave to
go back to Cleveland, and he goes, HI, had a
night last night.

Speaker 1 (01:38:21):
I'm like, what do you mean?

Speaker 15 (01:38:22):
What could have happened? You know, we left you at
the wedding and you were right behind us. My grandma
got carsick. Right as my dad pulled into her driveway.

Speaker 1 (01:38:30):
She pecked in the car. My dad holds out his
hand to catch her vomit.

Speaker 19 (01:38:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:38:38):
Yeah, And because my uncle.

Speaker 15 (01:38:39):
Is in the car with him as well, he's like, hey,
get out of the car and open the door so
I can throw this vomit outside of the car. Well,
my uncle had a stroke early. This is a snaker.
He had a stroke earlier in the year, and he's
he's walking with a walker, and so he can barely
get to it.

Speaker 1 (01:38:54):
And I and she's still barfing. So my Dad's like,
if they know grandma gets carsick, why didn't you have
a little airplane.

Speaker 15 (01:39:00):
He's never actually thrown up. She's just said that she's
like felt kind of queasy and usually doesn't hate her
till after she's already out of the car.

Speaker 4 (01:39:06):
Okay.

Speaker 15 (01:39:07):
So and my dad's inner driveway, I mean he's right
there and he's driving. Yeah, so he's got her barf
in his hands. He's begging my uncle to get out
of the car as fast as he can to open
the door so we can throw this barf outside.

Speaker 1 (01:39:21):
Of his car.

Speaker 15 (01:39:22):
Now is it?

Speaker 1 (01:39:23):
Is it wedding food?

Speaker 15 (01:39:25):
Bars of ginger all like probably sour.

Speaker 1 (01:39:31):
Probably, So she's commenting on the taste now potatoes, sure, gotcha, and.

Speaker 4 (01:39:38):
So is it pound cake that's real sensitive to.

Speaker 15 (01:39:44):
So she continues to barf, and my dad's like, my
uncle's not getting around to the car fast enough to
open up the door. So my dad just has to
like drop his handful of her barf on the floor
of his car, and she's continuing to barf all over
his car.

Speaker 1 (01:40:00):
So he was up until three in the morning.

Speaker 4 (01:40:03):
Would they have for dinner?

Speaker 1 (01:40:03):
By the way, it was chicken stuffed with cheese.

Speaker 15 (01:40:09):
With seamed vegetables, mashed potatoes.

Speaker 1 (01:40:13):
And three layer cake. This is when you wish that
your grandmother could only eat through a straw. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:40:19):
Yeah, So now your dad's wiping his vents.

Speaker 15 (01:40:22):
He was up till three in the morning trying to
figure out but he had to actually go take it
to get it detailed because it was that bad. That's so,
And I'm like, and you don't want to, you know,
I mean, it's your grandma, So you don't want to
like be like, what a nasty.

Speaker 1 (01:40:34):
Bitch his mom.

Speaker 4 (01:40:35):
It's his mim, right, that's his mom.

Speaker 15 (01:40:37):
Can you imagine you get to the point in your
life where you have to catch your mom's barf in
your hands.

Speaker 1 (01:40:41):
But I would, I would just let it go. I
said that he's like, but he's obsessed with his car's.

Speaker 4 (01:40:49):
Phantom.

Speaker 1 (01:40:50):
No, it's like some hatchback. But he thinks he's you know,
ride and dirty. I'm obsessed with Myndai hatchback. It's something Nissan.

Speaker 15 (01:41:01):
Yeah, so he was more worried about a stir, But
there's no level of concern about my car that would
override like the nastiness.

Speaker 1 (01:41:09):
Of something barf in my hands.

Speaker 12 (01:41:11):
Well, you also have a car that probably has a
lot of handbags and grocery bags that she could puke
into potentially receptacle.

Speaker 1 (01:41:18):
She barked in her purse too, so my dad had
to give her a new purse.

Speaker 4 (01:41:22):
That's nice.

Speaker 1 (01:41:22):
Of all those ruined butter mint candies, butterscotch. Yes, have
you ever been in a car with someone when they
vomited into me?

Speaker 15 (01:41:31):
I had a friend get hammered and barked on my car,
and she tried to barf out the window and it
flew back and hit me in the face.

Speaker 1 (01:41:37):
I don't know if you puke into the vents, I
don't know if you recall the time I was puking
in the limo.

Speaker 4 (01:41:44):
Yeah, I've had, I've had.

Speaker 1 (01:41:45):
I remember that was the night you slept on the
tree lawnch Yeah. Yeah, at least I'm respectful. I pooked
in Chris Tyler's toilette and Alan had.

Speaker 15 (01:41:52):
The limo pull over to barf on the side of
the road after the Willoughby bar crawl.

Speaker 1 (01:41:56):
That's right, after yelling at me first, living my life,
that's right. Yeah, my brother would get real car sick
and we were driving to Arizona, so that's a long drive.

Speaker 4 (01:42:10):
Yeah, that's like.

Speaker 1 (01:42:11):
Uh, he was like seven years old at the time,
and he must have puked like three times before they
figured out a system like where he would let everybody know, hey,
I'm gonna puke and then he would just We were
taking trash bags like full, like hefty black trash bags
of puke and just dropping him off every time we

(01:42:34):
had to stop the gas because he was puking so
much because he was Yeah, he didn't keep any food
down the entire trip because he would puke so much.

Speaker 16 (01:42:44):
Are you carsick just riding in a car or even
when you're driving, Because I don't know anyone who's carsick
that when they're driving the car.

Speaker 1 (01:42:50):
When you're driving, you're fine. It's usually a passenger that
has the problem.

Speaker 4 (01:42:52):
And sitting in the back.

Speaker 1 (01:42:53):
We had a suburban, so sitting in the back of it,
it's a lot bouncier, and it would just jostle him
around and upset his stomach. Then he would just I
very much do not like being a passenger in a car.

Speaker 4 (01:43:04):
Agree how you go car?

Speaker 1 (01:43:06):
I did when I was a little kid, not to
the Brent Rose puking, but definitely to where I was
extraordinarily nauseous, And even as a grown up, like I
don't like riding shotgun, I don't like being in the backseat.
In honor of your grandmother, I've got a song for
oh okay.

Speaker 6 (01:43:25):
They always bake you cookies, They make sure you've had
your lunch.

Speaker 1 (01:43:31):
They wanna give you kisses because they.

Speaker 6 (01:43:34):
Love you a whole bunch. They pat you on the head,
and they always call you money. But when you are
not looking, they're having sex with men. More money, does that,
prostitute grandma? If you could, they'll buy you an ice
cream cone. Prostitute grandma, but give them a twenty end.

(01:43:57):
They'll play with your bone prostitute Grandma. They're always sad
because they're almost dead. They could in the kitchen even
better in bed.

Speaker 1 (01:44:09):
They announced everybody and their brother, you know, getting these
announcements that the tours are coming through this summer and fall.
They announced that Train is going to come through in
June to play Blossom, and it's a wild lineup, by
the way.

Speaker 4 (01:44:23):
It's Training, by the way. I don't know how people
feel about Train.

Speaker 1 (01:44:26):
I feel like, other than Pat Monahan, that's kind of
like another band that a lot of people consider to
be faceless. But Trained, to me is one of those
bands like you never pissed when you hear them. You know,
it might not be somebody's favorite band, but they're a
very good band for what they do. They're a very
good tight band.

Speaker 4 (01:44:44):
What are their songs? I can't even think of the
drops of Jupiter or Jupiter that's what I Hey, Soul
Sister got used in a lot of Yeah, yeah, yeah,
is what I said.

Speaker 1 (01:44:55):
It's grocery store music.

Speaker 23 (01:44:57):
You say that you're never pissed when you hear Train
until I I took my friend who is a metal head,
to a Train concert, and she hated her life so much.
I won tickets off the radio, and so we got
like meet and greet passes and everything, and she could
not be less enthused to be there.

Speaker 4 (01:45:12):
She's like, she's just a grump.

Speaker 1 (01:45:14):
I get it if it's not your cup of tea.
But they're definitely not a bad band. Again, I always
I always kind of look at bands as like the
functionality and the musicianship of what they're doing. Pat Monahan
is easily one of the most underrated guys in music.
This is a guy who he's from Eerie. He's from
up the road. This guy was like front and cover
bands in Eerie. He could have been the most popular

(01:45:37):
guy at a bar in Erie, Pennsylvania.

Speaker 4 (01:45:40):
But his band split up, and I think he'd been
doing it for a minute.

Speaker 1 (01:45:46):
His band split up, and he goes out west and
he finds some dudes and they try to grind it
out and Train blows up after a while.

Speaker 13 (01:45:54):
But they did.

Speaker 4 (01:45:55):
Everybody laughed.

Speaker 1 (01:45:56):
A few years ago. It had to be five or
six years ago by now. They did a chair album
where they did the entirety of led Zeppelin two. It's
just called Train does led Zeppelin two, and they did
every single song note for note, and it's amazing. You
laugh when you hear this, You go, that's ridiculous. But

(01:46:17):
they nail it and the proceeds went to some West
Coast charity or whatever. But here's the lineup for this show.
It's Train with Blues Traveler. Remember now, Oh, I love
Blues Traveler, Train with Blues Traveler. I would go just
for Blues Traveler, Jewel. Oh, now we're talking. And Will

(01:46:38):
Anderson the comic. No, the jazz band, Yes, the comic.
You've never heard me, yell at you. Will Anderson former
headliner for the Allan cock Show comedy tour. He's great
nail in the other day.

Speaker 4 (01:46:55):
I'll ask him about the train gig.

Speaker 1 (01:46:57):
When is this? The Train show Blossom is June eighteenth.
The tickets will go on sale on the twenty fifth
of this month. So it's Train, Jewel, Blues Traveler, and
Will Anderson. They don't list Will Anderson in the Cleveland
Scene article on it, but the press release I got

(01:47:17):
said Will Anderson Trains getting ready to drop their eleventh album.

Speaker 2 (01:47:23):
In May.

Speaker 1 (01:47:23):
It's their first in five years. And again Train is
grocery store music like whatever you want to call it,
because a lot of their music has been used in advertising.
But they're not a bad band. Like you know, they
get dismissed as like your mom's favorite band or whatever,
But for what they do, it never strikes me as

(01:47:43):
like they're not as needy as Maroon five comes off.
Maroon five always comes off as super needy.

Speaker 4 (01:47:49):
And what do you mean by that? Yeah, what's needy music?
Not needy music?

Speaker 1 (01:47:55):
The band band Adam Levine is more of a needy
frontman than Pat Monahan.

Speaker 4 (01:47:59):
But again, what do you mean because.

Speaker 23 (01:48:01):
He's cute and has tattoos and likes attention.

Speaker 4 (01:48:04):
Well, no, I mean, you're not gonna front a band
if you're not that kind of you know.

Speaker 11 (01:48:07):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:48:08):
Maybe because Pat mont Hans got a couple more years
behind him, maybe he's a little bit more comfortable in
his own skin.

Speaker 4 (01:48:13):
I don't know. And they are different bands, they're not
the same kind of band.

Speaker 7 (01:48:17):
But I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:48:19):
Train's not a bad band. And I think Jewel, I mean,
she did the Mary Santora think a long time ago.
She got that grill fixed Jewel back in the day
her teeth were all running away from each other, and
then Will Anderson. But Blues Traveler is one of those
bands and when you hear me, go, man.

Speaker 4 (01:48:38):
What happened to them?

Speaker 1 (01:48:52):
Mostly?

Speaker 4 (01:48:52):
But Anyway is a better song?

Speaker 1 (01:48:54):
Wasn't But Anyway from Kingpin I think, so, yeah, do
you like the other one better?

Speaker 4 (01:49:07):
I like Hook?

Speaker 1 (01:49:08):
You do like Hook?

Speaker 2 (01:49:08):
I do like?

Speaker 4 (01:49:09):
But but then you think if you're gonna if you're
not around their biggest hit.

Speaker 1 (01:49:19):
M it sounds like my stomach last night because I
hadn't eaten. Yeah, but hold on, hold on, hold on,
watch what I'm gonna do here, Bill, hold on?

Speaker 4 (01:49:38):
Are you ready? We're gonna mix it up.

Speaker 1 (01:49:47):
So stupid.

Speaker 5 (01:49:50):
I do like it.

Speaker 4 (01:49:52):
So effective. Yeah, literally, that sounds that you hear a
year ahead before you put your fans.

Speaker 1 (01:50:07):
Yes, that's right here, hold on, I give you Chewbacca
girl here. Oh John Popper, I'm so sorry the fun.

(01:50:27):
I'm just glad the guys are dead. One's fun beaten right,
And then they had that angelic voice as well. Yeah
of course you know. By the way, John Popper the
pride of Shardan, Ohio. He's from right out here. I
don't know where blues travelers started. Probably one of them
hippie towns. But he's from Ohio.

Speaker 4 (01:50:52):
But stick friend, yeah, tell me lies, Yeah, yeah, tell me.

Speaker 1 (01:51:01):
You know. He was in a band with a guy
named Chris Barron who would go on to front a
band called Spin Doctors and they were He kind of
had his career cut short because he got like throat
cancer or something.

Speaker 4 (01:51:14):
What a wild time.

Speaker 12 (01:51:16):
Yeah, Like just music in the nineties was all over
the place. Well it was like the post grunch stuff.
They're just like, well, we we need something that's right,
so you get you get harmonica bands and you had whatever.
The Spin Doctors, I mean, they're just they're a rock band,
but they're like kind of this it be reygae thing,

(01:51:38):
but yeah really yeah, but they were great.

Speaker 1 (01:51:41):
There are a lot of singers wearing drug rugs in
the mid nineties and kind of didn't know which direction ago.
I like the Spin Doctors, right, I guess. John Popper, though,
used to get it. In the early days of Twitter,
he would get into trouble because he was like doxing
people and stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:52:00):
Yeah, I'll get you, I'll get you some troubles.

Speaker 1 (01:52:03):
Doxing when you document boxing, when you post people's private
information and a public forum. Oh you post someone's address
or their phone number or you know, gotcha, yes, oh my,

(01:52:31):
oh hey, Alan Cox show after hour's line.

Speaker 4 (01:52:33):
Enough of that.

Speaker 1 (01:52:35):
Anytime you want to leave a message, you can it's
two one, six six eighty nine oh three. Wait, hold on,
I want to make sure that my I want to
make sure that I'm not playing Blues Traveler farts in
the middle.

Speaker 9 (01:52:49):
Of hey Ellen, it's matth.

Speaker 8 (01:52:52):
I think that the natural progression with pound Cakes excess
work on the show. For lack of a better term,
you know, he started out with the written pound Takes,
and then he did the Pound Take podcast and the
Sports break and how he's writing press releases. I think
the next best thing for him to further hone his
broadcasting skills would be for you guys to pick a

(01:53:15):
classic piece of literature for him to read chapter by
chapter and then just review it maybe once a week
on the show. He could summarize that chapter for us.
And it goes hand in hand with his minor in English.
I think, so he should have read all these anyways,
but you know, maybe he could an Akrinina or War

(01:53:37):
and Peace, which of course we know the original title
was war. What is it good for Huckleberry Finn? Maybe
don Quixote assign one of those to him, and let's
have him do a chapter and just kind of summarize it.
I think it's just entertainment for all.

Speaker 1 (01:53:53):
Anyways, Spy, I'm assuming that you didn't read any of
those books Matt Reynold off in college.

Speaker 4 (01:53:59):
Not that I can Tolstoy in all those books. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:54:02):
Again, I'm not listening. I'm not looking to give pound
cake assignments. I mean, I don't think anybody wants to
hear him.

Speaker 4 (01:54:09):
Do a book review. Never read don Quixote.

Speaker 1 (01:54:14):
I had to read that book in Spanish.

Speaker 4 (01:54:15):
It's about a donkey named that's right.

Speaker 1 (01:54:19):
Burroe in Spanish. Show you guys are a bunch of
morons and I love it. On joining us today of
course for International Women's Day. All show is Mary Santora,
chart topping comedian from Northeast Ohio. Although when you were

(01:54:42):
on with Jason, you did say that your album was
at the top of the charts, and I had to
make sure I heard it. I had to make sure
I double checked, and I was like, Okay, good, she
means chart. Well I said it, and I was like,
I was actually glad that I said it with him.

Speaker 23 (01:54:59):
Because I'm like, I don't get a little we get
a little embarrassing and just gloss over. And I was like,
if I said that on this show, I would have
been reading.

Speaker 1 (01:55:05):
It depends on when you got me. You know. Sometimes
you got to go past and I can't stop down
for everything I like to lead. I rechecked it. I
have I have fallen from grace.

Speaker 4 (01:55:16):
No, what does that mean?

Speaker 2 (01:55:17):
Though?

Speaker 1 (01:55:17):
You were pretty high, so even if you fell a
little bit, you'd still be in good shape.

Speaker 23 (01:55:21):
I was number one on iTunes for six days, and
I was number one on an Amazon for eight or
nine or something like that. And Billboard charts come out tomorrow,
so we'll see how that goes. But yeah, I mean
I'm I'm down in like the seventy eight to ten
somewhere in there. Okay, but yeah, it was almost a week.

Speaker 4 (01:55:37):
But a lot of people don't don't get there at all.

Speaker 1 (01:55:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 23 (01:55:41):
No, I'm very proud of it, very happy, very excited.
It's doing well. The physical copies, the actual CDs. When
I was like, man, no, he's gonna buy these. We've
sold over one hundred already in the first little weekend
number in them as soon as I get them.

Speaker 4 (01:55:57):

No, are you gonna get one?

Speaker 1 (01:56:09):
Sure?

Speaker 2 (01:56:11):
Do you know what that is to get it?

Speaker 9 (01:56:12):
If it's if it's if Mary signs her autograph, Yeah
she will, she'll sign it.

Speaker 4 (01:56:17):
You'll get it signed. A number, yeah, of course, what
number would you like?

Speaker 2 (01:56:24):
Number number eleven?

Speaker 1 (01:56:26):
Two eleven? I was gonna say between one thirty. And
you know they got it all right?

Speaker 4 (01:56:31):
What's going on?

Speaker 19 (01:56:32):
Dick?

Speaker 15 (01:56:33):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (01:56:34):
I wanted to tell you they got a public down
here in Dayton, think TV and they're going back there.
They have this as a recorded show. I was telling
pound Cake he would have loved it. They had a
tribute called this Land is Your Land. They had all
the people their king Santrigo Wood, he got free h

Speaker 1 (01:57:16):
What about what about the folksmen and the new main
Street singers? Pardon me, what about the Foalksman and the
new main Street singers?

Speaker 9 (01:57:24):
Yeah that was good. And then then the other night
they had the debut of Loretta Lynne born on the
same day I was, April fourteenth. They had her coal
miner's daughter, and she had her greatest hits and she's
I didn't never know that she was friends with Patsy Kleine,

(01:57:47):

it was a tribute to Motown. They had Smokey Robinson. Oh,
they had the Temptations.

Speaker 1 (01:57:57):
Martha and the Vandellas.

Speaker 9 (01:58:02):
I mean this, l you know, it's like a concert
like in your downtown where I would live or something.
I could not hear this anywhere.

Speaker 2 (01:58:10):
Alan.

Speaker 1 (01:58:11):
I always felt I always felt bad for I always
felt bad for Martha because once you separated her from
the Vandellas, the hell is you gonna do?

Speaker 7 (01:58:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:58:20):
And you know the one I'd like to she's saying it.
Uh remember Mary Wells, my guy from the Supremes.

Speaker 2 (01:58:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:58:29):
Oh, and tonight they're going to have a tribute to
Buck then Skill, Patty Loveless, Patrina McBride and these all
are down and you can make a pledge and I
called them up. I'm going to get a couple of
CDs and the DVD for about twenty bucks. But I'm
telling you, guys, you've never heard anything like this.

Speaker 4 (01:58:51):
This happened, yeap, Yeah, I think that's probably a pretty.

Speaker 9 (01:58:57):
I just and I wanted to tell you something else too.
We got a fiddle player that came from Nashville into
Beaver Creek Strummers, and I did the Orange Blossom special
on the mandolin and guitar.

Speaker 1 (01:59:10):
How about that the Beaver Creek Strummers. Yes?

Speaker 4 (01:59:14):
Wow, all right?

Speaker 1 (01:59:16):
Is that a class tribute band?

Speaker 9 (01:59:18):
Tonight we're back in the band, Joe. We got sixteen
people and we're going to just rock the place dead.
We're going to hit everything.

Speaker 1 (01:59:26):
It's probably truer than you know.

Speaker 4 (01:59:28):
Have you gotten your vaccine?

Speaker 9 (01:59:32):
I'm going to get it.

Speaker 4 (01:59:33):
Yeah, a month, a month? What are you waiting for?
You can get it now.

Speaker 15 (01:59:37):
Well.

Speaker 9 (01:59:38):
The only thing is the last time I took a
flu shot, I was sick for two days.

Speaker 1 (01:59:43):
Oh yeah, this isn't a flu shot though, diggie. You
want to be out playing in front. You want to
be playing in front of people again.

Speaker 2 (01:59:49):
Right, yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:59:50):
Well yeah, that's why you go do it.

Speaker 1 (01:59:52):
Then you can get out there and you know, you
don't have to worry about uh, you don't have to
worry about strumming through a mask.

Speaker 2 (01:59:58):
No, but congratulations, eggs. You're welcome.

Speaker 9 (02:00:04):
But you know I'm gonna play good tonight. But I
thought i'd tell you as well, So I joined two
bands now. So life is good with Dick from day.

Speaker 1 (02:00:16):
Life is good with Okay, thank you. I'm glad to
hear a dick. Stay healthy, okay, okay, all right, thank you.

In the parlor, redescillet on the solves, smelly old back
at that and have ahole. Oh, there's Parkward in the paparetta,
Parker in the pot. There's Bye in the pettery, and
the coffee is always.

Speaker 3 (02:00:34):
There's chicking on the table, but you gotta say grace.
There's always something cooking that old Joe's babe.

Speaker 4 (02:00:42):
Now they don't allow no frowns inside.

Speaker 3 (02:00:45):
Leave them by the door.

Speaker 1 (02:00:47):
And there's apple brandy by the kegs door. Oh it's
you God, hang Briandon, I'll tell.

Speaker 3 (02:00:54):

Speaker 1 (02:01:08):
And have a whole.

Speaker 24 (02:01:09):
Well, there's eye in the petry, and the pies always
sausage in the morning at a party every night there's a.

Speaker 4 (02:01:16):
Nerd con duty and they don't feel right.

Speaker 1 (02:01:18):
Ticket on the you gotta say, Grace, there's always something.

Speaker 5 (02:01:24):
Joe.

Speaker 1 (02:01:30):
No, I want to know if Dick and the Beaver
Creek Strummers are doing anything like that, because that would
make me buy a ticket and go. I realize I'm
asking the wrong group of people. It was mostly Yeah,
it was a rhetorical question. Trip. That's the first thing
we get to do, show Trip, the show, the Beaver
Creeks Drummers, the Beaver Creek Strummers. I'd go me sitting

(02:01:54):
in that crowd, We're all gonna look like we're twelve
years old. When I work in a hospital, the death
certificate's all done through medical records. I think that that
Rush Limbaugh story is probably not true. That would not happen.
The doctor has to sign it. Yeah, but couldn't you
I feel like, uh, obviously, what's like punch it up
after the fat Oh no, Like if you're the widow

(02:02:16):
and you know the doctor, I mean, you know, who knows?

Speaker 4 (02:02:19):
Could you put that on?

Speaker 11 (02:02:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:02:21):
They might.

Speaker 1 (02:02:22):
My friend Andrew Jackson said he was the greatest radio
I'll tell you what my friend Andy. No, but I
was thinking. We were talking earlier about Jeff Bezos' ex
wife is getting remarried to a teacher at one of
her kids schools in Seattle. Same thing with Rush Limbaugh's wife. Right,
How long until she starts dating? He left her a

(02:02:43):
fifty million dollar house? How old is she doesn't have kids?
I mean, considerably younger than him, But I think she's
like fifty one maybe around there.

Speaker 4 (02:02:50):
So a youngish woman in.

Speaker 1 (02:02:52):
Our time dot com, our time for the silver foxes
among you. It's not gonna be long before she gets
back out there. She's a good looking woman.

Speaker 23 (02:03:02):
No, I can imagine that when you're with somebody for
so long. And I mean, I guess I just feel like,
like Jeff, I understand that.

Speaker 1 (02:03:13):
But I'm saying, like you forty four, she's four and
he was. She was like his fifth wife. But he
kids d any kids, So that's a big plus. All
your money's yours and now it's hers. You think the
ex wives are gonna like come after her for what? No,
I know they always try and fight the estate and
stuff like that. No, because a will doesn't do anything

(02:03:35):
like a will, it can be fought. No, but you
trust different. No, but you have dealt with those divorces,
each one at a time. I'm sure he wrote them
big fat checks and take it the hell out of here.

Speaker 16 (02:03:44):
They do that stuff all the time, though they're like, oh,
you know, you left something to your last wife and
you didn't leave anything to us.

Speaker 1 (02:03:50):
I have a I have a good feeling that rush
Limbaugh probably uh had some pretty iron clad clauses in
his divorces. If you're gonna get married that many times,
you're never married and divorce that many times, you're not
leaving anything to chance. If you get divorced the first time,
you go, god, she really took me for all.

Speaker 4 (02:04:12):
You know, I didn't know I had bad. Well, anything
can attempt to be litigated, Yeah they can.

Speaker 16 (02:04:18):
They can try to take anything to court, even if
it is ironclad, like he's not here to fight it,
and they're like, what do I have to lose? Worst
case scenario, I don't get anything. Yeah, might as well try.

Speaker 1 (02:04:29):
Yeah. Maybe they were married for ten years, got married
when he was fifty nine, she was thirty three. But
pretty woman, I mean, you know so. But I was
thinking about attendant to that Mackenzie Scott story. You were
married to the world's richest man, and Catherine Limbaugh is
married to a very wealthy guy.

Speaker 4 (02:04:50):
They can't mabe each other. She shouldn't have married that
school teacher. She should marry Rush Limbaugh's widow, Jeff Bezos's
next wife.

Speaker 1 (02:04:58):
Yeah, oh hmm.

Speaker 4 (02:05:00):
I really stick it to them and then also have
a lot of money.

Speaker 1 (02:05:03):
By the way, I feel like when you've some people
need multiple times, you know, might not be the right person,
might not be the time in your life. Some people
you really need to get. Some people got to learn
the hard way.

Speaker 4 (02:05:16):
Starter Marria.

Speaker 1 (02:05:17):
I was talking to my daughter over the weekend and
I didn't say it out loud, but I was thinking it.
I was hoping that she wouldn't be like me in
the sense that I'm one of those people who has
to learn things the hard way, and I wish I
wasn't that person. But my daughter is one of these people.
It's like, can you tell her to not do something,
She always pushes it one more time. Right now, it's
partly because she knows we're not going to explode on her,

(02:05:40):
and she's doing it to be funny and it's nothing
of great consequence. Right She's not holding fruit out the
window from the second floor. Anything like that, that would
be of great consequence. I'd have to go clean it enough.
Just the great consequence to me, I got to get
out of here and make a living. What do you throw?
What are you throwing tangelos out the window? For those are.

Speaker 3 (02:06:02):
Not even in season?

Speaker 1 (02:06:03):
What example do you mean by she pushes what? Well,
just like I said, she always will be like, do
not do that? You know, something maybe mildly dangerous. You know,
she's she's five now, so she's you know, she's a
she's a mix your older daughter. No, no, no, no,
well her too, but I mean she's sixteen and I'm
not going to be giving her You know, my ex

(02:06:24):
wife has done a phenomenal job with our older kids,
So I'm not I'm not swinging in on a chandelier
and bone. You know, I'm not giving them life lessons.
You know, if they ask me, I'm more than happy
to tell them where dad screwed up. I don't do that,
you know what I mean? I know well that part.
But my my advice I try to offer, maybe as

(02:06:45):
cautionary tales more often than not, of what not to do,
sometimes of what to do. I think that both can
be equally instructive. But you know, people give people give
people a hard time who've been married multiple time. It's
like some people they clearly want to be married. They
clearly they like being married. They like being married, like

(02:07:06):
the comfort, and they can't nail it down, you know.
So and at different points in your career, you know
you're a different person, and so especially if you're if
you're you have a public profile, that can really throw
you into into directions that you hadn't you're just not
prepared for. By the way, I did have that meeting

(02:07:28):
with my father yesterday. Oh unexpectedly.

Speaker 16 (02:07:33):
He just swung by well because he said he was
off like March seventh through the thirteenth, and I did
not get it for the podcast, and I'm so glad
I didn't, because there's nothing that could be There's nothing
south from that conversation. He got into like politics and
race and the history with him and my mom, and
it just went wow. Now it was a much neat conversation.

(02:07:56):
So you guys like a happy family. Now we're cordial.
We got that out of the way. But he was
just like, I don't have a problem with your gayness.

Speaker 1 (02:08:04):
Now I'm like gas, he was like, that's not how
you praise something if you don't have a problem with puff.
But that's not But isn't it? But isn't that how
if that's how he phrases it, if the intent is good,
He's like, I don't have a problem with monkey. But
he's right. But but he's and he's like better been
going to his grave thinking you're some kind of weirdo,

(02:08:26):
he said, turns out, and then he asked the question.
He was like, So he's like, I'm just gonna ask this.
Had I been around, would you have been gay? And
I'm like, you don't know how homosexuality works?

Speaker 4 (02:08:39):
Do he does? He doesn't know, he's naive, So and
he's like, I he's.

Speaker 1 (02:08:43):
Like, you know, we told don't even think And I
don't mean to keep interrupting you, but I don't even
think it's naivete. I think it's denial. In twenty twenty one,
most people know how this works. You might have a
real problem with gay people, right, but you you can't
still possibly think that, like just because he wasn't around enough,
che true. That's members of my family have explained to

(02:09:06):
me how it is a choice that has always been
a choice everyone they've ever but that's all rooted in
religious nonsense. So it's denial, is what I'm saying.

Speaker 23 (02:09:15):
But I'm not saying it's denial. I'm saying they truly, truly,
truly believe that like different.

Speaker 1 (02:09:19):
But again they're not serious people because it's all rooted
in some Bronze Age superstition. But I'm saying his dad
probably really does think, Oh if I were around more to.

Speaker 13 (02:09:29):
Him, like.

Speaker 4 (02:09:31):
Nature versus nurture.

Speaker 16 (02:09:33):
Yes, I'm guessing, but like I'll tell you some of
the stuff like off air, because a lot of this
conversation was like not safe for work and we're sitting here.
We went to the yard house in west Lake that
was like a place between the two of us. I'm like,
please get a booth away from everybody else, and they
put here like.

Speaker 1 (02:09:49):
Two minutes from my house there. Yeah, and you guys
could have both come over. I could have broken it.
He could have met like Fdr Andy all mediated it.
But yeah, it went to a place where I'm like,
are you serious right now? Like he was talking about
like my gayness, and he was like I thought it
was in a front to me, Uh, you're mad at him.

Speaker 16 (02:10:10):
That we kept it from him all these years, Dad,
and he's like, you know, I went to AA and
he was like, turns out a friend that I was
friends with all these years he's gay and he's a
really cool guy.

Speaker 1 (02:10:24):
And I like him. I'm like, yeah, it takes some
people that to get there. It's better late than ever.
It's all I'm saying. Whenever you get there, I'm glad
you got there. We're welcome, We're happy to have you.
It's like I turned up the radio.

Speaker 16 (02:10:40):
He turned on the radio because I was proud of you,
and then I heard you talking about boobs and I
was like, oh, yeah, that's my boy. And then I
think Alan said that you were gay or you were
looking at a guy's chest, and he's like I just
freaked out and I couldn't understand what he was talking about.
I'm like, I had a newspaper article like it's in
big bolt letters. It said Cody pound Cake Brown is

(02:11:01):
out and entertaining. That's how my aunt found out I
was gay. Yeah, I didn't openly come out to her.

Speaker 1 (02:11:08):
I don't understand. Maybe your dad doesn't read the Illyria
Chronicle Telegraph, maybe he doesn't the Lorraine Journal or whatever.
It is Butrin Beacon Journal ten years and he just
found out what station I was on, and he was like, well, yeah,
the fish. I'm like, I was like, safe mish, God,
damn time say fish again.

Speaker 4 (02:11:30):
Sir, you should know that your son wants nothing to
do with the fish.

Speaker 1 (02:11:34):
My appetizer's gonna be all over ht. What did you
order calamari?

Speaker 2 (02:11:38):
No?

Speaker 4 (02:11:38):
I got the salmon.

Speaker 1 (02:11:40):
I'll tell you what that yard house they got. They
got a menu, a big select, like a freaking encyclopedia.

Speaker 16 (02:11:45):
Yeah, yeah, I got the I got the salmon with
the mashed potatoes, and what I got the vanilla pudding.

Speaker 1 (02:11:51):
What did he know?

Speaker 16 (02:11:52):
He got some tacos and he's sitting near You can't
be teary eyed and salty while you're eating tacos.

Speaker 3 (02:11:57):
He's like, you can't.

Speaker 1 (02:11:58):
It's a lot of salts and there's peppers, you know,
they're on the little tray where it's like sitting the
fall nice and pretty, and he's just there and like
as he's taking a bite, he starts to like tear up,
and then the toco ball star nice falls onto the plate.

Speaker 16 (02:12:11):
I'm like, don't be all, don't get the taco off
soggy come on, she's got the mask all hanging down.

Speaker 4 (02:12:18):
I just know you were gay. There sall okay, honey.

Speaker 16 (02:12:24):
But like, let me tell you, like I need to
put my cigarette. My mom text him this morning, She's like,
give me all caps, give me the tea. So after
I leave here, I gotta have a phone conversation with her,
cause she does she not, like, does she not talk
to your dad? Ever since she cussed him out, they
haven't spoken.

Speaker 4 (02:12:42):
That was the.

Speaker 17 (02:12:44):
On her.

Speaker 1 (02:12:45):
That was a conversation that sparked this conversation because she
was I don't know if that was the only time
or if it was just the most recent. Was like,
your mom cussed me out, just called me everything but
the white man. I was like, yeah, because you pissed
her off.

Speaker 23 (02:12:55):
So was the overall tone of the conversation him apologizing.

Speaker 1 (02:13:00):
Or trying to understand you was he so was. He
was coming from a good place.

Speaker 16 (02:13:04):
He was ignorant to what was going on. He was
he was he felt betrayed because he thought we were
keeping it from him.

Speaker 8 (02:13:10):
I was like, I just did.

Speaker 1 (02:13:11):
It's not that I was hiding from you.

Speaker 16 (02:13:13):
I just didn't feel the need to tell you because
you weren't around like, I'm not just gonna come out
heyd adam gay, so let's go get Chipotle, Like.

Speaker 1 (02:13:20):
It was a surface conversation.

Speaker 4 (02:13:23):
Is that's not any more conducive to crying than the tacos?

Speaker 1 (02:13:26):
Same thing Chipotle and wipe your tears.

Speaker 16 (02:13:30):
He always asked me about like my career and like
my social life, never about like my dating life.

Speaker 1 (02:13:35):
So I was like, if he asked about do you
have a girl.

Speaker 4 (02:13:38):
He's asking you about your career. He didn't even know
what channel you.

Speaker 1 (02:13:40):
Were on, So it was so I did. Also baby steps,
there are a lot of parents of straight kids who
don't want to hear about their dating life.

Speaker 10 (02:13:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:13:48):
Now my mom she prized like on right, but but
you know, from what you've.

Speaker 1 (02:13:52):
Described, your mom prize to pry just because she has FOMO.
That's not necessarily interest in what's going on. She just
doesn't want to be left out of things, you know
what I mean. Like the people who have FOMO, you
can always tell because they'll ask you, and then as
soon as you start telling them, they just glaze over
like they didn't really want to know.

Speaker 4 (02:14:10):
They just didn't want to not know.

Speaker 16 (02:14:13):
And some of the things that I was curious about
I asked, and I and I got confirmed about how
my grandfather was a hello racist and he kept my
mom away from my dad and that whole thing, right,
But yeah, I just had to get some things confirmed.

Speaker 1 (02:14:26):
Because I don't know them. They was just some old
white people. Do you feel how do you feel after this?
Do you feel better? Do you feel better late than never?
Or do you feel like what took you so long?
It didn't I mean, it didn't move you one way
or the other.

Speaker 16 (02:14:37):
He wanted to sit there for hours and hours, and
I was like, I gotta finish laundry, and I wanted
to go home and watch the Megan Marker Megan Marco interview,
and so I was like another time, and I like,
I said, you can't miss something next you never had.
I wasn't but hurt about it. He wanted to sit
down and have a talk and I just got a
free mail out of it. So I didn't care because
he felt guilty. I knew he was gonna tear, but
I was like, don't.

Speaker 1 (02:14:55):
I was like, just don't cry.

Speaker 23 (02:14:56):
Well, I should have ordered all the gayest foods, like
pretzel stack.

Speaker 1 (02:15:00):
Some horn dog dying, like just like it, horn dogs
like his Dad's like, I'm okay with your gait.

Speaker 4 (02:15:11):
But do not like to want to eat. That's the
worst part.

Speaker 1 (02:15:15):
Excuse me, what sizes of meat do you have? Could
you bring me a big meat? I always diet my
hot dogs and mayonnaise.

Speaker 15 (02:15:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:15:22):
I know you're okay with me being gay? Bar are
you okay with me being a bottom?

Speaker 4 (02:15:27):
Good for the jokes, Stay for the pasta lunch.

Speaker 22 (02:15:30):
It's the chef ONMMS.

Speaker 1 (02:15:35):
Tell pound Cake not to change a thing. You look fantastic. Okay,
kind of haircut, it look great, guy, he looks bad.
None of us said he looks back. He was just
a little upset with what did I miss. Somebody texted, Cody,
don't change a thing. You look fantastic with the way
you just saw the video, it was a lot you
could do for your personality. Oh okay. Somebody else just said,

(02:15:56):
you guys just mathematically calculated how much of a trash
person pound Cake? How much of a trash person each
of us potentially is in certain city? Right, this is
gonna come as like I'm the lowest trash person on here. Well,
the way that you answer those questions my trash person

(02:16:17):
is difficult. Yeah, I'm a difficult person. I can still
be pretty trashy. Could my trash person ness come from
being the youngest?

Speaker 4 (02:16:26):
Maybe?

Speaker 1 (02:16:27):
Is it because I'm not the I'm the least maturest,
the immature.

Speaker 4 (02:16:30):
At least maturest.

Speaker 1 (02:16:32):
Man, Come on, help me out when least mature Jesus Christ.
Oh the way, you're barely younger than marriage. Yeah, he's like,
it's not like you're twenty one, you're younger than me.

Speaker 4 (02:16:44):
Yeah. He just looks at himself like, I'm just the
baby over here, a wheel.

Speaker 1 (02:16:54):
Over here, Come out, man.

Speaker 23 (02:16:55):
You're gonna be thirty in September, right, I'm thirty three
in November.

Speaker 4 (02:16:59):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (02:16:59):
A couple are trying to me.

Speaker 4 (02:17:00):
Yep, he's just riding around.

Speaker 1 (02:17:12):
Well, lust have some what's ring to do? Have some
growing to do?

Speaker 4 (02:17:15):
Sure, and that has nothing to do with age.

Speaker 1 (02:17:18):
No, that's correct. But I mean I chose a line
of work where you are. We all did, where we
are rewarded for immaturity.

Speaker 4 (02:17:24):
By the way.

Speaker 16 (02:17:25):
Sometimes well that's what I told Mary. I don't necessarily
hate to go tea or the beard or whatever.

Speaker 1 (02:17:29):
I said.

Speaker 16 (02:17:29):
It just doesn't fit my personality because I feel like
it looks I look like a grown man, and she's like,
you're you're thirty, You're about to be thirty.

Speaker 1 (02:17:37):
You need to look like a grown man. And I said,
but when I open up my mouth, they're like, oh,
that is not what I expected. So it just right.
