I assume you might be a real pill, but I

seven eight one double oh seven eight hundred and three
four eight one double oh seven three five one nine
two number to text me alancoxshow dot com everything else.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Get it?

Speaker 11 (02:32):
There were we're kind of we're kind of rejiggering some
things in the studio engineering wise, and so it's it's
throwing me off for a second. But you know what,
every day, rob is a new day. It's also a
winding road. According to Sheryl Crook, a winding road is
out it is. Every day is a winding road.

Speaker 12 (02:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (02:53):
I wonder how much money she's made on car commercials
licensing that song to like right, just a fortune. It's
like imagine dragons. People wonder why, well, I shouldn't say,
people wonder it's playing. People don't like imagine dragons. I mean,
I despise them with a blue hot hate. But it's
because it's all like truck commercial music, you know what
I mean. It's like when bands write songs. It used

(03:16):
to be they go, wow, we wrote this song and
we thought it was great, and then all of a
sudden they started using it in arenas and sports. And
then people got a little savvier and they're like, we're
gonna write a song specifically for that. Like ac DC
is the band I think historically that has made the
most money doing that. Thunderstruck is the most licensed song

(03:38):
across the board. Yeah, Thunderstruck gets we all hear it
at sports events and in between bands, you know, when
they're when they're turning the stage or whatever. Thunderstruck is
the most licensed song. But there are other bands that
make a lot of money, you know, if their song
gets used a lot for sporting events and things like that.

(03:58):
I've got those. We got Monsters tickets later on. Right
in that band Skillett, who I think are a band
from Memphis or something. They were a technically like a
Christian rock band, but they got riffs and they have
a song called Monster that gets used at Monster games
for obvious reasons, but Thunderstruck gets used now. When ACDC
wrote Thunderstruck in the early nineties, I feel it's fair

(04:22):
to say there was nothing in their head that were like,
you know what, guys, in thirty years, this is going
to be the most played song in sports arenas. It
was just an ac DC song, a song that they
wrote and recorded. What was that on the Razor's edge?
It was Thunderstruck nineteen ninety and you know, thirty years
Hence obviously, I mean it's been getting used the whole time,

(04:43):
but that was not in their brain. They're like, this
is just an ac DC song, because as we know,
they're all variations on the same song.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
That one just happened to get used. Now it's a banger.
I love it.

Speaker 11 (04:56):
It's a bop. As the kids say, Rob No, that
song slaps. But there are a lot of bands now
that feel like they're writing songs specifically for licensing purposes,
and that to me is like, listen, I understand the landscape.
You know, you gotta the old revenue streams aren't what
they used to be. I get it.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
You know, you got to make money.

Speaker 11 (05:18):
But there's some songs that are so egregiously made for
you know, listen, life is a Highway Tom Cochran, Right,
that's another thirty year old song, fun song. I don't
think this guy was like, you know, that's gonna be
using car commercials.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
But when you cover that song, you know exactly what
you're doing. Oh yeah, if you're.

Speaker 11 (05:34):
Rascal Flats, you know exactly what you're doing.

Speaker 13 (05:37):
Now.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Is it a great song? Yes?

Speaker 11 (05:40):
Is Tom Cochran gotta get the money from that? Probably?

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Right? I mean check?

Speaker 11 (05:48):
Yeah, And again no shade like the old revenue streams.
You know, you're not making money selling records anymore, so
I fully understand doing that. You know, selling out is
a vestige of a long bygone era, you know, us
gen Xer's boy selling out. That was the worst epithet
you could hurl it somebody if you were to call
them a sellout, if they were in any arm of

(06:10):
any kind of artistic endeavor and you called them a sellout,
you might as well have dug their grave and put
them in it. Now, people can't wait. People are dying
a cell. It's not even selling out anymore. People are
dying to sell. Hey, here's some stuff I did, can
I sell it.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
To you and that's just what it is. It's other fault.
Well you get, you get, Like was it Jason Newstead
in that when they did the Metallica interview, like, oh,
you guys cut your hair, you sell out? You sold out?
He's like, yeah, we sold out every single show on
that last tour. Yeah inside of arenas, Yeah, inside the stadium.

Speaker 11 (06:44):
My thought on Metallica cutting their hair is twofold one.
That's a big swing and it could have just as
easily worked out for him, right other bands that cut
their hair. Second, it looked terrible, you know, I mean,
like right away, Kirk was like like this is not good.
And he was like the first guy to fully grow
his hair back. James has kept it short. Uh you

(07:06):
know Rob Trujillo, he's got a whole other thing going on.
He's never had short hair. Well, James had a hole
set and then Lars his hair all ran away, right,
I mean he had a scullet in the eighties. I mean,
this guy was going bald, but it was long, so
it was only a matter of time before he started
wearing tuks and stuff like that. But you know, if
you can grow your hair and you're in a band.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
You should you can't see you don't have the cameras
up there right like you have the logo the will
be your logo up there. It's weird and over here
it's showing me the.

Speaker 11 (07:33):
I can I can switch back and forth between what
would normally be us in the frame, yeah and my desktop.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, and I have it's weird. All I have is, uh,
we may have to restart that thing, Okay, give it.
I don't know we can do that battle in the
break's going tactical difficulties, Liver Boulder, Well, because when I
was uh this morning Mark Nolan, because we shared the
studio with a Mark Nolan Morning show on Magic and
he goes, hey, there's some hinky stuff going on engineering
wise in there, so just f y.

Speaker 11 (07:59):
I'm like, okay, and they're still looking at it now.
So it's just a matter of plugging some things into
different things and as long as the end result is the.

Speaker 4 (08:07):
Same and we can still provide rob Award winning broadcast
content to the eyes and the ears.

Speaker 11 (08:16):
Well right now, yours yep of Northeast Ohio. Isn't it weird?

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Though?

Speaker 11 (08:21):
For as long as we've been doing this job over
the years, it is weird for your technical difficulty to
be Hey, our cameras are down right, you're what but
they can still hear us, right, Yes, that's the most
important thing. Albeit maybe not to the audience. I'm sure
there are some days they're like, I can't hear this
right now. I just can't.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah, I can't do this. You can't do this. I'm
not mentally prep is.

Speaker 11 (08:46):
In some days I come in here and I like
to have like a little pithy anecdote to start the show,
and I don't rob I nothing right, I got a
whole show prepared for today. But the very top where
I like to come and I go, You're never gonna
guess what.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
I smelled this morning.

Speaker 11 (09:03):
Oh, by the way, as I'm thinking of it, to
that point, you see that they plugged in some machine
that pumps out like cloyingly sweet, fragrant air in.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
The long hallway here.

Speaker 11 (09:15):
Yeah, and then you go into the men's room, which
smell like a state park, and boy, they have air
freshen or bombed that room.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Well, they put those they put those melon urinal things
in those bubbly urinal cakes that smell like melons. So
when you pee on them, it's like a well.

Speaker 11 (09:33):
Because yesterday they had finally gotten in there, the plumbing
crew or whatever. They had finally gotten in there and
figured out the men's toilets. But as luck would have it,
and I don't know if they're connected, the urinals didn't
work right, Like you push the button, it'd make a noise,
but nothing with flush.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
It started smell like a state parking there.

Speaker 11 (09:50):
And so yesterday I go in there to have a
pitch midway through the show, and one of those yellow
wet floor signs that you put when somebody's mopping that
was in the urinal.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
It still is, yeah, and I haven't been there today,
and they have a uh, somebody left like three black
and mild raps sitting in there as well. Since nice
it's a whole like basin full of p all right
and stinky stuff and a couple of black and mild
rappers and then that that thing. So they got some
they got some work to do.

Speaker 11 (10:16):
SNI but swish or sweets worth three rounds of the
way there, man, I mean every toilet's working, yeah, and
two of the three urinals are working and smell good.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah, So I'll take it.

Speaker 11 (10:26):
Massive, I will take it I think any move in
the direction of progress is a good move. And of
course they've already started to put up all the Halloween
decorations out here in the suite, Rob.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Because you're a fifty start six eight euclid. It looks
so dumb out there, Dude, I don't care. It's fine.
They're trying to up.

Speaker 10 (10:46):
No.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
No, But for something that's happening in thirty fifteen days,
why why do I have to walk around? And so
what does that stupid sign say says? I sure can
be a real bone head. It doesn't bother me, It
doesn't bother me.

Speaker 11 (11:04):
I don't know quite frankly, because I something, you got
some things you gotta let roll off your back. Well,
it's our colleague who is reviving the office Halloween party.
She was putting up those decorations this morning, and I
just kind of I was walking through the kitchen.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
It's some water, and I was like, oh, they're going up.
It's fine, you know what I am as a man
pushing his fifties realizing very quickly I don't need to
look at cartoon which is in caution tape at my
place of employment. It's not necessary.

Speaker 11 (11:33):
And what those cartoon witches look like, right that way,
your algorithm is going to feed you stuff you give me,
like a Frank Frazetta or something, and holy cow, all everywhere.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Half well, he can't put up a station logo somewhere,
and I want to have a buzzard on the wall.
But god damn it. You can put up every stupid
Halloween decoration you can find, no problem. I'm wondering to
that point.

Speaker 11 (11:57):
I'm wondering if maybe, in the spirit of comper, we
could add a couple of our own images to the
Halloween motifi middle fingers, No, no, one of those aforementioned,
like Frank Frazetta drawn, you know, busty medieval witches.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
I would settle for a buzzard and Alan Cox Show
logo like those things would be fantastic on those pillars,
wouldn't they When people walk in and go where am i? Oh,
there's a heart on the wall that looks like a butthole?
What is that over there? Oh, I'm in a radio station.
There's the Alan Cox Show.

Speaker 11 (12:34):
But if you go past Studio C, the box from
which we broadcast, Yeah, the on air light has the
show logo.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Oh wait, no it doesn't, No, it doesn't any who.

Speaker 11 (12:43):
The bottom line is, I think anything that puts people
in a positive frame of mind and it puts them
maybe in good if you will, spirits.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
The time to set this up for a Halloween party
on the thirtieth, literally fifteen hours from today, two hours
before the four hours before you put up some stupid
decorations for the kids. Get people in the mood. Who's
in the mood for what? I'm not a child who
cares season. Oh, it's so dumb, so dumb. I'm gonna
start dressing up as something every single day. Now, you're

(13:16):
gonna come in every day. You're like, I'm in the
holly tail looking dressing like one man. I'm a chearlier today.
Interesting that that was your default costume. That's what I have.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
Interesting that was where your head was. Yeah, tomorrow's a Thursday.
I dress up as a woman on Thursdays. Rob, That's
why I would just come to work in my normal
at the time. Rob's in his wish of bitch Wood costume.

Speaker 8 (13:37):
The Car Show on one, the radio program determined to
shave Cleveland's ass.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
No, save Cleveland's ass. Oh that makes a lot more
sense then cock Show on.

Speaker 5 (13:55):
And as.

Speaker 11 (14:04):
About seven or eight minutes away from your next one
thousand dollars. Get that keyword coming from the buzzard bookie
last four keywords of the day.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
In fact, So stress today, rob Lo what I'm doing? Oh,
you're doing?

Speaker 4 (14:19):
You're doing the new baby. I haven't had a mountain
dew and I couldn't tell you how long.

Speaker 11 (14:24):
But today I was coming back from the getting midday pump,
rob You know I do that. I sit here all
day and so I go down to the gym midway
through the day and I'll get down there and I'll
move a little iron. And I was coming back and
counterintuitive to exercising, I walked over or passed the concession
not concession, what the hell is it called the vending machine?

(14:45):
Vending machine, the glass box with the crap in it
and mountain dew.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
And I said, I'm not going to do it. And
then I said, you know what I am. It's been
quite some time, and I'm going to treat Joe's heal.
And so that's what I did.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
Now. I do like it better in the can to
twenty four.

Speaker 11 (15:08):
But the bottles, all the half bottles, all the half
so in a pinch, that's fine, But I do maybe
it is psychosomatic. Maybe it's the power of suggestion that
I think it tastes better in the can. Probably not,
because they're two literally different materials in metal versus plastic.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
I prefer it in the can to twenty five. What's up, guys?

Speaker 14 (15:34):
Hey Rob, I'm not into the holiday stuff either, But
for God's sake, take a breath. Man, It's not that
big of a deal your poor wife. Oh you know what, dude,
Oh yes, hang on. I'm going to go ahead, and
I am going to post a.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Video on my Instagram page that you can watch, and
you tell me if it's a big deal. You tell
me if as a near fifty year old guy, I
need to walk around where I work like I'm in
a romper room. However, stupid, However, let me be Devil's
advocate here, and I am certainly not pro that. However,

(16:12):
not everybody here is fifty year old guys like us.
Uh huh. A lot of people love Halloween, but do
you know what, We all are adults at our jobs. Well,
we don't work at the the found Factory of fear.

Speaker 11 (16:28):
However, However, you and I in particular are compensated quite
well for being professionally juvenile.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
So while we may outwardly.

Speaker 11 (16:38):
And physically be adult men, at work, this is ridiculous
what we do.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
For a living. I's got a text from the boss.
Why are you so grumpy about Halloween? Do look? Why
are you so grumpy about that? Do I have to
explain to him it? Do I have to explain? Why
do you think I'm upset? Boss? I'll walk you around
you my video? I know where can people see your video?
Put it on my Instagram? And oh, I'm sorry, excuse

(17:05):
me wmms rob on the Instagram? Uh huh, Yeah, why
am I grumpy about all? I'm not grumpy about any holidays?
I love every single one of them. I just don't
need to celebrate them a month in advance at my
place of employment.

Speaker 11 (17:18):
However, however, it's gonna be like the day after Thanksgiving
that they flipped the Christmas down the Halliday time too,
So I would say, drink in the Halloween as best
you can. Because right after that, I was talking to
my daughter last night. We're doing this Simpson's Advent calendar
for Halloween, and she goes, why do they have one

(17:41):
of these? And they you know? And I said, well,
because Halloween is a big deal to a lot of people, right,
There's costumes, and it's a retail holiday. And then you
go right into Christmas because she's like, why are the
Christmas trees up? I'm like, because Christmas is a massive
retail holiday. Nobody cares about Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is just a
food holiday, right, So Thanksgiving the only time you'll see

(18:03):
that advertises like grocery stores and places and sell provisions.
But I'm like, retail wise, you're talking Halloween, where people
are buying costumes and makeup and all this crap decorations
comes off, and then Christmas.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
So I'm like, Thanksgiving gets short.

Speaker 11 (18:18):
Shrifted because there are no gifts given and that's all
that retail cares about. And so that's why you're gonna
go from Halloween decorations directly in the Christmas decoration.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
Texts me that I need to stop hating fun.

Speaker 11 (18:31):
What I'm by way, what I like is that you
have made me sound downright lovable. Yeah well right, yeah,
I was the guy that was getting all the slings
and arrows of being a curmudge and we kind of
crossed axes.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
Now on this, let's go with the goosebumps theme, or
should I put something cuter Mayan the Great Pumpkin Waltz?
Should that be the video? The Google muck from the Cramp?
Should I put that on there just for my background
music and my video?

Speaker 11 (19:00):
You do what you want to do, however, this is
that's the one.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Here we go.

Speaker 11 (19:08):
I will accept no criticism of the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.
All right, Oh, I can't wait this as far as
nostalgia goes.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
Anybody who rans Pumpkin Charlie Brown, anybody who wants to
rip on me, go ahead, jump on my Instagram page
and look at what I have to look at for
the next fifteen days. Again, if you did this two
hours before the party, fine, this is ridiculous.

Speaker 11 (19:35):
What is the maximum amount of time that you would
prefer decorations to go up?

Speaker 2 (19:40):
I just told you, oh, two hours party? Do it
a day off? Okay, set up a couple of tables.
You got the pumpy Oh look it out, cute little
junior painted a pumpkin with a smiley face of oh
is that a sharp tooth? Though, Junior? Good job? So
when you were young, so when you were when you
were at your old radio cluster in Massachusetts, Rhode Island.

Speaker 11 (20:01):
They never did the Halloween office thing for the kids.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
Nope, really nope. You know why it's happened at every
radio station I worked out because the adults, Well, because
you were the big boss. Uh huh. No, I always
had a boss just like here.

Speaker 10 (20:16):
I know.

Speaker 11 (20:16):
But there's always people with little kids wherever you work,
and those are the people who are the tip of
the spear on stuff like this.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
And they all did stuff with their kids at their homes.

Speaker 11 (20:28):
Sounds like a much more pragmatic area of the country.
Maybe this kind of stuff belongs. Maybe they just don't
like fun, like ohioans to rob you know, that must
be it.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
That's probably what it's like. Like the boss said, why
do I have to hate fun?

Speaker 4 (20:41):
You can't spell Ohio without oh my god, look at
these directions without decorations.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Hi, which is a standard greeting when you're ready to
have some fun. So you're gonna play Ghostbusters on repeat
until Halloween's no different than playing Holly Jolly Christmas on
repeat for three months now, so always going to start
with that now.

Speaker 11 (21:00):
Eric in Penn Hills has a great suggestion. Could we
do captain funds frightening fandangle.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
Could we do a Halloween cruise?

Speaker 11 (21:12):
Can we go out, Like I said, it's still kind
of unseasonably warm. Could we go out onto the lake?
Captain Funds frightening fandango. I would like there to be
quarterly cruises, you know, Nolan, you want to talk about
having fun? Mark Nolan man, this guy, he knows what's up.
He does these regular cruises. I think, right, they're like

(21:32):
booze cruises or whatever, magic you know, and a lot
of fun people, a great time. We should find a
way to do quarterly cruises. Right, So we've got Captain
Funds floating fandango. It's summer one, I know, summer and
fall or you know, right next to each other. But
Captain Funds frightening fandango, the winter one.

Speaker 2 (21:51):
Yeah, I don't know. We get an icebreaker or something.

Speaker 11 (21:53):
We go out there and uh, Captain Funds frigid fandango.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
Oh I like that. And then in the spring.

Speaker 11 (22:00):
It's Captain Fund's flowering fandango, Rob because it's springtime and
rebirth and all that crap. Alan, Why are they decorating
now if the party isn't until the thirtieth, I don't
know when the party is is.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
It the the thirty fifteen days before I gotta look
at what was that stupid sign? Again? We're all boneheads?

Speaker 11 (22:22):
Oh god, I thought it was before that.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
Oh no, the thirtieth Yeah, fifteen days of this? Yeah,
listen the oh you go. When I post this you
can see Oh oh which what does it say? Something
about stay away from my room? Listen?

Speaker 11 (22:41):
This is very well, it's very parent centric. You know,
our we don't have small children anymore, and people who
have small children they are still awash in wonder, you know,
they're still kind of maybe reliving their own childhoods.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
We are way past that. It's not for us. Hashtag
romper room, hashtag spooky, hashtag Halloween, and I'm posting where
we go share.

Speaker 11 (23:07):
All and I would rather look at Halloween decorations than
Christmas crap.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 11 (23:11):
You want to get your mind blown, go to one
of these home improvement places where they have the Christmas
decorations butted up against the nine foot tall skeletons for
people's front. That is two holiday cultures colliding there.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
Oh yeah, yeah, it's going to happen here too, because
you know, no one's taking these decorations down until somebody
gets pissed and they'll be like, oh, move that, because
we have to put that dumb red Christmas tree in
the window. Red Christmas tree. See.

Speaker 11 (23:36):
I just think, I don't know. I think that if
it's I think that in lieu of systemic changes in
our line of work, you're left with cosmetic changes. And
I think if it's something that I'm being very diplomatic
about this, but I think it's a victimless crime. We

(23:58):
cannot call ourselves victims if we're largely sequestered in this
room and when we walk out there we get an
eye full, but we're leaving.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
Uh, we're living a pretty charm life. If that's as
bad as it gets. Uh huh, whatever you say, Yeah, yeah,
all right, it's posted as a real I shared it
to my share. You're like a Halloween grinch. No I'm not.
Oh I think it dude.

Speaker 11 (24:21):
Look I you're saying, you're saying it's way too far
in advance.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
Way too far in advance. A and B. It's where
we work. Yeah, but isn't it? But not necessary? But
Halloween is still like.

Speaker 11 (24:35):
The big holiday for this time of year, and then
you have Thanksgiving?

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, And you know what else
I'm not gonna do. I'm not gonna eat my Thanksgiving
dinner at work. I'm not going to come in on
Christmas and wait for Santa to show up. Well, the
things I do at my house with my family, my
kids have celebrated every holiday. Who's gonna eat.

Speaker 11 (24:53):
This spread that I put out here on Thanksgiving? Well,
I ignore my own family to cook for my co workers?

Speaker 2 (24:59):
Does I mean? And over there? Left? What? I'm not
coming over here again this year for Thanksgiving? Well, I
go home to Chicago for Thanksgiving. My mom will have
to ride along. Yeah, hey, Shotgun, it'd be great. Yeah,
I'll protect you from future black stepdad, Alan.

Speaker 11 (25:15):
I absolutely love Red Line rob f the haters. Yeah,
the stepdad calls me again like out of nowhere. I
don't know why.

Speaker 2 (25:23):
I didn't even know. Oh yeah, sorry, Yo.

Speaker 11 (25:27):
Allen comparing me calling me from the line.

Speaker 3 (25:33):
Joe Allen, future black stepdad here again.

Speaker 14 (25:37):
I heard you were.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
Still have any issues with your stuff being stolen out
of a refrigerator. So myself and their future black step
brother are willing to come down and stand in front
of the refrigerator and protect.

Speaker 11 (25:53):
Your step So just let us know, come down and
stand in front of the fridger or protect my stuff.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
I'll tell you what, man, future black step brother standing
in front of anything is going to be intimidating. Keep
people away. That kid is enormous. He was on the boat.
He's like ten feet tall.

Speaker 11 (26:06):
Seriously, you want to talk about this is he's like
Blackjack Skelly. I called him black Skellington. He didn't care
for that at all. No, but he almost threw me overboard.
He gave you that courtesy white man.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Cracker a hole. No, I don't need you to stand
and put you I listen.

Speaker 11 (26:28):
I told you I have relegated myself to keeping my
beverages in my locker and then when I come to
work in the morning, I put one in the refrigerator.
That's how I do it now. And that's fine. It's fine.
I'm willing to work around whatever I have to work around.
If you listen to us on iHeartRadio from out of state,

(26:51):
tell me where you do it. Make sure I sent
out two dozen envelopes with Alan Cox show stickers in
them this morning, most of them out of state, some
of them locally. So if you need Alan cockchrow stickers.
I always like to mention to people, just email me.
Don't ask me how to get them. Just email me
with your name and address. That's simple. Just Alan at
allancocktro dot com. But people will email me. They waste

(27:14):
a step they stickers. Email me your address, w'll cinema.
James listens in Tampa, Molly is in Denver, John is
in Seattle. Brandon listens in Orlando, Florida. I think is
in Boulder, Colorado, and Brenson, Grand Rapids. Beth is in
Scott's Dale, and she texts I'm listening in Arizona, of course.
But Rob is protesting all caps way too much. I'm

(27:35):
pretty sure that he loves Halloween. I think what Rob
is saying is it's just too much too early. It's
too much, too early, and too much for in the
work way place, is what you're saying.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
Yeah, I think it's dumb. I guess I feel like
I guess.

Speaker 11 (27:50):
I feel like those lines have been blurred for a
long time now between people at work and because people
work from home now, right, and whatever they do in
their own home is fine, But when they come into
the office, I think people have gotten themselves kind of
into a more lase fair vibe. You know, but again,
this is all new to you. I this is none

(28:11):
of this is new to me. Everybody's such I've ever
worked that has done this.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
Well, it's new, but it's the same thing. It's like,
it's like when when people give pizza parties in lieu
of raises. Like, dude, we're all adults at the end
of the day. I don't need to be looking at
Halloween decorations for a month. I don't like I've done
every single one of these things with my kids, right,
we never missed a Halloween. We would have a blast.
We would go to Halloween parties, we would go to

(28:35):
people's houses on Halloween and have a blast. Yeah, why
do I need to start today and look at those
dumb pun signs all over the place for fifteen days
before a party that I don't even think we should have. Yeah,
and yes, okay, Rah, Rob's a dick, blah blah blah.
He just gets so amped up over the dumbest things.

(28:57):
I know. I know we've been together for a year,
Yet I started I was like, I'm a pain in
the ass. Things annoy me. Now I can sit here
and bitch about it. And yes, people are saying, I
make you look down right a light fit. I didn't
think that anybody could ever do it, Rob, but you
might have made Although we're just talking about right now

(29:20):
and this particular subject right there are plenty of times
Rob is quiet as a church mouse, and I'm over
here flipping my wig over something just as dumb. Yeah,
I just people are just telling me to I'm getting
all the comments now exactly what I thought. Don't have
a cow I heeart doesn't have anyone else left to
be Allen's co host.

Speaker 11 (29:37):
If you check out, that's all that the girl who
has the halloweenen cass manner.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Damn yeah, promoted from hanging all. Oh my god, ain't
at the truth.

Speaker 11 (29:51):
I guess you bust your ass working your way up
in this business, trying to get your show to get
bigger and bigger. Flash forward to twenty twenty five. You're
just like, Hey, who's a round?

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Hey? Ever been on a microphone before? Rob just dropped
dead because someone hung Halloween decorations up. We need somebody else.

Speaker 11 (30:07):
Yeah, what if they throw out money at the Halloween party?

Speaker 2 (30:11):
You got fun? Two tens Two tens came.

Speaker 11 (30:20):
Out of the roof twenty bucks in my hand at
the Kevin Gate show Rob on Saturday night. I can
tell you with one hundred percent certainty, I have never
been to a concert in my life, and I've gone
to hundreds or I walked away with cash. It's like
you got paid to go.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
I did.

Speaker 11 (30:37):
Yeah, Alan, Halloween is only two weeks away, right, Hey,
you don't talk to me.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
You're right, Yeah, I understand. I'm very good at reading
a calendar.

Speaker 11 (30:50):
Rob's point is that it has no place. This kind
of frivolity has no place in the workplace. It there's
a workplace, not a playplace.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
Do you think do you think honestly now, and I'm
being sincere, do you think that as anybody over the
age of I don't want to say eighteen, because we're
all legal adults, but anybody over the age of nobody
here is probably younger than twenty seven, right over the
age of twenty seven. Should anyone, anyone ever have a

(31:20):
birthday cake at work? Boy? I like cake. I do too.
I think it's fantastic.

Speaker 11 (31:26):
I love cake, And to me, it's not like in
the way if there's a birthday cake in the kitchen,
I won't have any because people are like wolves.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
You know, But I'm like, I get it. It's like
off of Space right.

Speaker 11 (31:39):
The gold standard of office films is off of Space right,
with every joke in it. But they're hanging banners. Of course,
that's why I was a parody. But Alan, I'm with rob.
My office is a friggin' hodgepodge of pumpkins and leaves
and random spiders everywhere, and.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
You have a job to do. Like you're an adult,
you come to work. Look dude.

Speaker 11 (32:00):
However, every office, though has an office manager who's part
of their job is all that incidental stuff.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
Come on, well, come on, I've never done that job.
I don't know.

Speaker 11 (32:12):
They're like, oh, they bring in the mail and they
hang up the thing and then get in.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
You're not gonna turn anybody's opinion on your place of
employment because you hung up like decoration. You're not gonna go.
You know, I felt really crappy about coming to work
here after last week. I you know, I don't want to.
Oh look look at that they put up a nice
witch decoration. You know, I feel so much better about
being at work now.

Speaker 11 (32:34):
Do you think that they would argue if I had
an orange and black Alan Cox show logo banner made up.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
I'm gonna just start doing it. I'm gonna start hanging
stuff up, and they're like, what are you doing? You
can't do that? Why not? Why can't I hang things? Oh?
They you can hang a stupid skeleton on the wall,
but I can't hang an Alan Cox show banner. I
can't put a buzzard up on the wall. Why not? Yeah,
I'm going here's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna print
up photos of Chris Rock from New Jack City. Yeah,

(33:02):
and I'm gonna label them Pooky Season love it. Yes, yes, yes, yes,
boy all over our studio door so he can't be
bothered by those little rug rats when they come in
here next week. I would like to be on record
I don't care fifteen days from now when the kids
are here, trick or tree fifteen days from now, listen,

(33:22):
I'm selfish.

Speaker 11 (33:23):
Kids love me, kids and animals they love me me too.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
I have no problem. I don't. I don't ever have
any uh kid that guy's a jerk or no, No,
I get along with everybody. You call a kid a jerk,
No one's like, hey, that guy's Rob's a jerk. Everybody
gets along I just I just think nonsense isn't necessary
at work. That's all I'm saying.

Speaker 11 (33:45):
It should be confined to this room exactly exactly.

Speaker 2 (33:50):
We do enough of this. Leave it to the professionals. Please,
everybody rob getting old? Yes, yeah again. You're not gonna
tell me anything in these messages. You're creative. It's all
getting old. I know, aren't getting old to day or born.
I am very self aware. I know who I am.
I know that I'm a dick as no illusions. No,

(34:11):
you're not gonna Oh my god, that man told me
I'm stupid.

Speaker 8 (34:15):
The Allen Cox Show on one hundred point seven, call.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
The Allen Cox Show. I want to listen to what's
radio again?

Speaker 5 (34:25):
Two one sixty five seven eight one double oh seven
or three four eight one double o seven.

Speaker 15 (34:35):
As it.

Speaker 16 (34:35):
Guys on this day is called Allen and he's always there.
Friends gets here when he's out the place, and he's
get one and he's here, say all Allen, stooky, Allen.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
There is Halloween girls.

Speaker 6 (35:09):
After speaking, David, are you excited for all those Halloween decorations.

Speaker 4 (35:21):
You think about, don't you?

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Dare you? David Lee brought against me.

Speaker 11 (35:32):
He is excited. His ghosts sound he's got ghost stories.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
I'll tell you all about it. Oh good, what did
the ghosts say?

Speaker 11 (35:51):
Whoa any who? Could we blare spooky? Allen through the suite.
At least they're having that.

Speaker 2 (36:02):
Dadline, Batesville, Indiana. There are no rules. You can do
whatever you want.

Speaker 11 (36:08):
Yeah, Alan, I'm an office manager and usually refer to
myself as office daddy.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
Maybe don't do that, maybe not.

Speaker 11 (36:18):
I will not be setting anything up for anyone's birthday
or holiday.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
Now again, that is a choice, you know. It's one
of those things.

Speaker 11 (36:26):
Every office has a different culture, and some offices are
really into that.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
And if you're in the minority, you just got a
grand baron shot that guy's number down for when I
get fired, I have a place to work.

Speaker 11 (36:36):
I always think though, that that kind of frivolity, even
though it might not be my speed, I feel like
it just.

Speaker 2 (36:43):
Makes things a little bit more tolerable for.

Speaker 11 (36:45):
Some people, and maybe if they need that little I'm
not gonna yuck anybody's young, makes me.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Stayle You think that makes something more tolerable.

Speaker 11 (36:55):
For those people for anyone, Well, I'm not them and
they're not me, so I can only speak for myself and.

Speaker 2 (37:02):
You know, Oh my god, I can't believe the pressure
on me. I have to do so much work. Oh
we'll get a pumpkin. What did they say? Though?

Speaker 11 (37:12):
Just for your brain health, you're supposed to take time
away from a task right to kind of reset your brain.
And for some people that could be them getting up
to it. That's why I do a lap before the
show outside.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
Right.

Speaker 11 (37:26):
Now, here's the problem. I could really really jam you
up if I were so inclined, which I'm not. House
so I would after I get out of here at night.
It's literally me and like one other person. When I
get out of here, usually around seven o'clock, I would
run over tear down all of those Halloween decorations. Who

(37:46):
would be suspect number one?

Speaker 2 (37:48):
Oh me? All day long? Yes, that's right. I mean
you could do whatever you want. But now you just
admitted it. They're chief. That's the genius of it. Now
I'll come back and do it.

Speaker 11 (37:59):
Yeah right, I just gave you plausible deniability. How stupid
would I have to be to do that? After Allan
said it?

Speaker 2 (38:10):
Span we have no sound? Spooky? What I guess you too?
Oh there you go?

Speaker 11 (38:17):
Uh spooky Allen is a real stinker, A real stinker.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
Yeah, little stinker.

Speaker 11 (38:24):
Alan, how about Captain Fund's Freaky Fandango where it's just
a bunch of greased up mattresses.

Speaker 2 (38:30):
I just geg you.

Speaker 11 (38:33):
Yeah right, Well, we've got the two people who were
banging in the bathroom that one year from Parma, so
maybe they can be the master and mistress of ceremonies
as it were. Noah in Pittsburgh, Alan, Sweet holy balls.
I think Rob and I were separated at birth or something.
I couldn't be more on board with ninety nine percent

(38:54):
of his views on the world.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
That's Noah.

Speaker 11 (38:57):
They're in Pittsburgh, ninety nine percent with you of How
about that you like the Toto song? Ah, Rob, Those
decorations are terrible. This must be somebody responding to your video.
I would imagine you dollar tree decorations by three year olds.
They could have sprung for some good shrimp. Listen, spring
that probably came out of somebody's pocket. That's what I'm saying.

(39:18):
They bought them. You're not gonna drop coin on any
kind of decoration, no you Yeah, it's not the declarations,
it's the actual just doing it.

Speaker 2 (39:28):
It is dumb.

Speaker 11 (39:31):
Batesville, Indiana. This is a town of I don't know
how many people. It's about forty five minutes outside of Cincinnati,
and they've got a giant Ozzy Osbourne Halloween pumpkin rob.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
How do you feel about that? A gord homage.

Speaker 11 (39:47):
Now it does look like Ben Franklin with the glasses
and but somebody clearly put a lot of work into
this trying to make it look like Ozzy. I'm trying
hard to see Ozzy in that, because all I can
see now has been Franklin. But this is a lawn
and garden center there in Batesville, Indiana, the Five Oaks

(40:07):
Garden Center, very.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Much like Ben Franklin. But I do see what they're
going for with the screaming Aussie. Yeah, I think it's
a nice gesture.

Speaker 11 (40:15):
A five hundred pound pumpkin that they've carved out. Now,
I'm not a massive you know again, I have a
nine year old, so it's I got to do it.
I've never been a big pumpkin carving guy. Like, I
don't really, I don't care. You know, there's a people
who are really into it. It can really do some
ornate kind of things. That's kind of I appreciate anybody

(40:38):
who's got a skill to do something like that. But
I'm the guy carving out triangle eyes me too, you know,
jagged teeth. But somebody put a lot of work into this.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
You know. I have very little artistic ability when it
comes to any I can't draw, I can't any of that.
So when I carve a pumpkin, like, we'll always do
the thing every year we've been. It's a tradition with
my all have the kids there and I'd be like, mom,
figure out who's pumpkin is who's And now it's much
easier because my girls are both very talented with that stuff,
so they know the bad one's mind. But when they

(41:11):
were little, my mother'd always be like, well, that one
must be the babies, and I'm like, no, that's mine,
mom oh, And I would do like, you know, the
big wide open mouth hole like the big surprise, and
then like the squared out teeth and a couple of
like round eyes and a triangle nose and be like
here you go, I mean, what are you five?

Speaker 11 (41:28):
With no disrespect to my older children, probably to this day,
my favorite pumpkin of all time is when my nine
year old was three and I gave her a sharpie
and I said, you draw a face on this pumpkin,
and I will carve whatever you draw. And she proceeded
to make two dot eyes and a straight across mouth.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
And I carved that.

Speaker 11 (41:48):
I just took drill bits and made tiny little eye
holes and then cut straight across her the mouth and
put a candle in it. It was so goddamn funny
because it was so rudimentary, but it looked so comical
at the same time. It was the exact obit is it,
of anybody trying to do some kind of ornate pumpkin carving.
The only good one I ever made. I did like
a big like it's almost the entire width of the
pumpkin with its mouth open, and I made I took

(42:10):
like all the guts of the pumpkin and hung them
out of the mouth, so it was puke.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Yeah, that one was the only one good one I
ever did. And like I see the ones out here
when people make like a cat with the bottom of
the pumpkins so yet like where the where the stem was,
it looks like it's butthole. Yeah, like that stuff that's great,
Like I wish I could be that creative. I would
make those all day long. Butthole pumpkins. Butthole pumpkins. Yeah,
I understand cat butthole pumpkins is hysteria. You can't take me,
but you're kind of take my bonhold. Well, that's a

(42:35):
band named Feline Pumpkin Butthole. There you go. FPB is
back on tour.

Speaker 11 (42:43):
Bro So, a customer of this place in Indiana gifted
them this Ozzie gord. But in fact it was carved
outside Cincinnati. It was carved at the Operation Pumpkin Fall Fest.
So that's ominous sounding Hamilton County. And so that was
a five hundred. Now an engineer in California won a

(43:06):
pumpkin contest. He grew a twenty three hundred pound pumpkin.
I don't know how you do that. I mean, there's
people who are able to do it. Here's a picture
of the guy with his prize winning pumpkin. Brandon Dawson
is a manufacturing engineer from Santa Rosa, and he won
the fifty second World Championship Pumpkin Way Off with a

(43:28):
two thy three hundred and forty six pound pumpkin.

Speaker 1 (43:32):
I was in this position last year when I lost
by six pounds. This year was able to take the win,
and that's really what the goal was this year was
to win one of the best, if not the best,
pumpkin way ups in the world. I work at Rivian
as an engineer in manufacturing engineering, so I work on
electric vehicles as my day job and throw pumpkins as

(43:53):
a hobby.

Speaker 11 (43:54):
That's a legit job engineer for Rivian. Those pretty sweet rides.
And in the in the off hours, grows giant pumpkins
and he won.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
I don't know what you win.

Speaker 11 (44:09):
I would be more curious to find out what you win,
because I would imagine that growing a pumpkin that large,
growing anything that large, you've it takes a great deal
of diligence and maintenance and time.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
And I don't know.

Speaker 11 (44:22):
But that guy won, and I don't know what he
gets for it, But I would like somebody to find
out and tell me a little ribbon something.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Yeah, well well done, Jim, Hey, good job. Don't quit
your day job. But it's fine, it's great. Put that
next to the big giant butter sculpture over there, and
move on to the next thing at the state fair.

Speaker 11 (44:51):
Witches are mad. The witches of TikTok which sounds like
a terrible, terrible Hallmark movie. But over there on TikTok
aka really really bored women want a boycott crock Pot
because they say the Crockpot company broke their promise to
deliver a cauldron this year. Every which needs a cauldron,

(45:13):
and the ladies over there on the TikTok in the
which community are displeased with the company because dates all right,
because they think that crock Pot screwed them over by
not giving them the cauldron that they were promised.

Speaker 10 (45:31):
Which is we have an official update from Crockpot on
the Crockpot cauldron. They posted yesterday shortly after I made
a post about when is the cauldron coming? I'm going
to keep posting until it arrives. They said, we acknowledge
that everybody's been asking for the cauldron. They posted a
bunch of the comments and a bunch of the messages
from people asking where is this cauldron that we were
promised last year? And so they said that there will

(45:54):
not be a Crockpot cauldron this year. This is very
un I think I speak for all witches and alternative
people when we say we would buy this year raund
any time of year, so it would definitely be profitable
if it draft in like October.

Speaker 11 (46:10):
Wouldn't you just go to like a do they have
the melting pot around here? You've been to the melting pot.
It's a chain of fondue joints. You've been there, yump.
I don't know if they have them around here. Why,
but those are little cauldrons. Why wouldn't you just get
one from wherever the melting pot gets theirs from? I mean,
I'm sure that croc pot makes a cauldron. I don't know,
but I mean, like they don't the fond places have cauldrons.

(46:35):
He just get like a little candle and put a
bowl over the top of it.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Yeah. Right.

Speaker 11 (46:39):
And the trouble is this is where you start to
screw people up or get them really mad, because somebody
will make an AI version of this and then put
it out there as though it's a real thing, and
so then they'll have people clamoring and they'll be just
blanketing some fake company or a real company with fake
information going, hey, it's probably how this witch arrived at

(47:00):
trying to boycott crock pot. Listen, not everybody can be
on the front lines of the social justice movements around
the world. Somebody's got to be boycotting crock Pot and listen,
the revolution will not be televised. It will be part
of crock Pot. And that woman displeased at them, saying,

(47:24):
we're not going to do it after all, but hope
springs eternal for the witches and per her suggestion, the
alternative community. I believe that's what she said. Dave, are
you mad about that? Yeah, he's mad too. Nobody loves
Halloween more than David Lee Roath. People keep dying at

(47:46):
Disney You know, they talk about Disney as being the
happiest place on Earth, but people keep dying there. Walt
Disney World had somebody dead, and Disneyland had somebody dead.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
Well, Disney World.

Speaker 11 (47:59):
Down there in Orlando, the cops were investigating an apparent suicide.
Somebody jumped off of a hotel balcony. There's a hotel
that is connected to the Mono Rail monorail that goes
through the Magic Kingdom, and they had to close down

(48:23):
the Mono Rail and they confirmed that the person had
died by suicide, that somebody had jumped. And this is
mere days after a woman had a heart attack and
died on the Haunted Mansion ride. See there, you can
kind of understand the cause and effect situation. You know,
a woman's got a bum ticker and then she gets

(48:44):
on a theoretically scary ride out there in Anaheim, and
by the time the ride got back into the station,
she was dead.

Speaker 2 (48:54):
But you would think that would be more common with
that many visitors every day, you would think there'd be
more deaths at Disney.

Speaker 11 (49:01):
I also, you mean just the law of averages. Yeah,
an unresponsive woman in her sixties boy who doesn't know
one of those Hey had just finished riding the Haunted
Mansion attraction. So the train or whatever it is, I
assume it's a train a line of cars, and they
come back through and people noticed that she was not moving,

(49:24):
and so they got to the hospital and she died
on the on the Haunted Mansion. I thought initially the
story had been that she died on the It's a
small world, after all, But I don't even know if
that's a thing anymore, if the I've never been to Disneyland,
for that matter, I've never been to Disney World. We
go to Orlando, but my daughter doesn't really care about Disney,

(49:46):
so we don't find ourselves down there. We went this
past year to Disney something one of the smaller park's
Disney Jungle or something, or Disney so Far or whatever
it was where they had the Avatar ride.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
But that's his interesting she got in that.

Speaker 11 (50:01):
But the Haunted Mansion has been there since the late sixties,
and so I wonder how many people over the course
of the ride people have died. I would imagine somebody
dying watching the Eddie Murphy movie The Haunted Mansion. They
just couldn't take it anymore, and they threw a belt
over the shower curtain rod and figured they'd finish it
that way. I think they just remade that again, didn't

(50:24):
they Remember back twenty years ago Eddie Murphy did a
Haunted Mansion film, and then I think they've just rebooted
it again.

Speaker 2 (50:30):
Like during COVID. I mean it makes sense.

Speaker 11 (50:32):
Why not, Well, Disney owns the IP right, so they're like,
just can't make any movies.

Speaker 2 (50:37):
They'll they'll they'll make a bunch of money on it
makes sense.

Speaker 12 (50:41):
Mm hm.

Speaker 8 (50:42):
The Allen Carr Show on one hundred points of it. Remember,
our devices are always listening to us. We are, so
if you start to see ads for squeezy salads and
wider milk.

Speaker 2 (50:58):
You know who to blame, The Allen.

Speaker 7 (51:01):
Cock Show, WMMS.

Speaker 11 (51:18):
Hey, how about those Cavaliers.

Speaker 2 (51:20):
They're gonna win over the Detroit Pistons, so they don't
go winless in the preseason. Eighteen to one hundred.

Speaker 11 (51:27):
I'd say that's a pretty sizeable defeat Pistons one and two,
Cas one and three. But they go into the regular
season one week from tonight on the East Coast, play
the Knicks and the Nets Wednesday and Friday of next week, respectively,
and then the home opener is here against the Milwaukee
Bucks on Sunday the twenty sixth, Tomorrow and Friday. Last

(51:48):
couple of pair of tickets for you to get to
that home opener, I'll have those around three ten. The
Cleveland Cavs will honor the teams from the early two
thousands with the Nike Classic Edition jerseys celebrating the first
lebron era. Do you ever buy the Classic Do you
ever buy like the City Edition?

Speaker 2 (52:05):
The Classic Edition? You buy those, not the jerseys? But
I do have I have a I have ah the
T shirt for the Guardians, you do? Yeah? And the hat?
All right, I just haven't broken that one out yet.

Speaker 11 (52:16):
I think I still have my old promotional Booby Gibson jockstrap,
my Anderson Verajao.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Uh something I don't know.

Speaker 11 (52:28):
I do have, by the way, the mozgov hat with
the ear lapse from years ago. It's up in like
my front closet with all the scarves and gloves and stuff,
this metal box. I still have it. Sometimes I'll slap
that puppy on. It's like a maroon, like a little
bud you know, one of.

Speaker 2 (52:46):
Those like the well, it's like it's like it's like,
I don't know what they're called, but they have like
the ear laps. Yeah, that's just what I guess that's
what I called it, right, Yeah, I just called it that.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
For some I don't know, get elmer fud ear flaps, yes, yeah,
different pattern.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
But uh actually last year the Calves gave us the
City Connect hats, the blue hats, remember yeah they did
the tukes. Yeah, those are awesome.

Speaker 11 (53:13):
Wintered trapper hat. I don't know if there's an actual
name for those hats. A Russian ear flap hat is
called anshanka is what they're called. And I still have
my my Timothy mosgov oshanka He.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
Used to call it the show all the time too,
didn't he?

Speaker 17 (53:33):
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hey, how are you?

Speaker 2 (53:39):
I heard we were talking about your promotional items from
a few years back. This is your front flo How
you doing? I've never had the pleasure of speaking to you?
Had not called the shanka? What's it called? Is just
called the Elmer fuddthet it's.

Speaker 5 (53:58):
Called the.

Speaker 2 (54:01):
Awesome. The Russian word for for years is ushy. So
maybe you can help me. Is it rabbit season or
is it duck season? I don't know what that means? Well,
the Elmer Fudd would always be hunting. Elmer is a
former KGB agent. Think you know the classic Russian name Elmer.

(54:23):
Elmer is a very very Russian last name. Well, show
from Fudderoff even better? Yes, like Rogeroff. Of course the
professional tennis player is a professional hunter. Yeah, sure is
Roger Fudderoff.

Speaker 5 (54:45):
Uh?

Speaker 11 (54:45):
Yeah, So the Calves win last night and they'll begin
the season. You know, they'll take a week and they'll
nail everything down and then they'll be there in New
York to play those Nicks Alan Right before, where did
the text go, Oh, we're talking about Jack Black and goosebumps.
I hadn't seen this. I thought at first that it

(55:07):
was AI or somebody made it up. But there's a
trailer for Jack Black and Paul Rudd in a reboot
of Anaconda. This person said they saw it before tron
Aris and I went on YouTube and so it is.
It's two guys, remember Anaconda early j Lo John Voight
with we're talking about terrible accents, John Voight doing this.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
I don't know what the hell he was doing in Anaconda.
It was ice Cube.

Speaker 11 (55:28):
Remember they're in the Amazon and they're being stalked by
I think Owen Wilson was in it. I've never seen
the movie. He's like twenty five years old. It's so
fun you couldn't it was so ridiculous. You couldn't tell
if they were trying to be campy or not. And
that was part of the fun. But and there was
a random British guy in there too, probably, But the

(55:49):
premise of the reboot of Anaconda is that they are
two friends who want to reboot the movie Anaconda, and
then it goes sideways and they end up closer to
the actual source material. But it's Paul running, Jack Black,
Tandy Newton who's real cute. Steve Zon is in it
and it opens on Christmas Day. Jack Black is getting

(56:10):
to be Johnny Christmas?

Speaker 2 (56:12):
Right. Didn't he have that Santa movie that came out
on Christmas? Did he? I thought he did.

Speaker 11 (56:16):
Didn't Didn't Jack Black have a because that's kind of
his thing now, is like kid movies. And you know,
he did the Minecraft movie which I took my daughter
to that opened in April, But that was him and
what's his name, Jason Momoa.

Speaker 2 (56:31):
But yeah, because.

Speaker 11 (56:32):
Jack Black kind of blew up big time on YouTube
and so a bunch of kids knew what he was about.
He's on Twitch and he's in YouTube, and you know,
he's like a big kid. Anderson Beverjel butt plug, thank you.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
That's what I was thinking.

Speaker 11 (56:48):
There's a murkin that looks like his hat. It's it's
in the Kim Kardashian skims line. Yeah, there was an
article somebody sent me Kim Kardashian is selling uh, I
guess fluffy thongs now or something fluffy. Uh, not mercans,
but called uh have you seen the pictures of them? No,

(57:11):
her skim's thong underwear with faux pubic hair. I guess
this is what people are talking about, which is precisely
what she wants. Obviously, people talking about it, whether they
think it's ridiculous or not. Kim Kardashian remains one of
the hottest women on the Indo planet.

Speaker 2 (57:25):
Do you just see, because that hasn't gotten to me yet,
do you just see like the tuft underneath it, like
on the outside.

Speaker 11 (57:31):
It's on the outside. It is very prominent. Yes, Now listen.
Pubic hair styles. Oh yeah, it's like a murcan, a
huge bush.

Speaker 2 (57:40):
Yeah, why would you want that? That's so dumb?

Speaker 11 (57:46):
A faux hair micro string thong in twelve shade variations,
the ultimate bush one that long ago that that was
Reggie hmmm uh. And so yeah, she's selling these thirty
two dollars what could we call.

Speaker 4 (58:03):
Fubes, faux fubes, fubes, fubes, fubes line of underpants.

Speaker 11 (58:10):
Yeah, listen, man, I'm telling you, this is one of
those kind of online shopping and retail There is a
portion of it of people just buying things that they
don't need, aren't going to use, I mean, might use,
you know, but yeah, a faux bush thong.

Speaker 2 (58:31):
You know.

Speaker 11 (58:31):
Pubic hair styles are cyclical. They change so much. There's
some women who are very they think that the hardwood
floors write no hair at all. They think that that's
somehow infantilizing them, or that you know, there's a whole
spectrum of belief on the whole thing. Frankly, I love
hardwood floors, but I don't have a problem with I'm

(58:54):
a gen excerpt man. You know, my formative years, I
was coming up in the age of bush, huge bushes.

Speaker 2 (59:02):
I don't know about huge.

Speaker 11 (59:03):
I mean, I wasn't Dayton Foxy Brown, but you know, yeah,
if you were, if you were coming of age in
the eighties, girls were not shaving down. It was always
the strip. Really like from my age.

Speaker 2 (59:18):
The nineties at that point was really when all that
was happening, and it wasn't the huge it wasn't it
wasn't bare floors, but definitely a strip more like that,
you know, the patch Landing strip. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (59:30):
Yeah, I remember the first girl that I dated in
college who was completely bare down there and I was like, wow, yeah,
look at you, well done.

Speaker 6 (59:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (59:43):
I remember I slide and freaky styley all over the place.

Speaker 2 (59:49):
I was like, wow.

Speaker 11 (59:51):
Now I had one girlfriend when I was living in Pittsburgh,
I had one girlfriend who asked me to shave all
the way down really yeah, And I did it out
of curiosity and out of a willingness to appease her.
Of course it was not comfortable. Boy and girls know
this obviously. It's kind of like if you if you're

(01:00:12):
going to take it off, if you kind of got
to keep it off because it gets so oh my god. Now,
first of all, not a good look for a dude,
straight dude. Not a good look. It looked like a ken,
but but ken doesn't have anything down there at all. Yeah,
fully smooth. But to have, let's face it, what I
got and to be fully smooth, rob, not a good look.

(01:00:36):
And then she saw it and was like, they go,
you asked for this, You told me to.

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
Do it, You asked me to do it. I mean
it is polite to groom. I will say that I do.
Out of control.

Speaker 11 (01:00:53):
My undercarriage, Rob as smooth as peeled eggs. Baby, There
ain't a follicle to be found down there, but up top, yeah,
you got a groom. It is unbelievable what some of
you dudes are rocking based on, you know, anecdotal conversations
people have had.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
What you maniacs.

Speaker 11 (01:01:13):
You guys are doing or not doing down there, and
you still assume and expect. Yeah, women are wanting to
get in there and have fun. You are insane, insane.
Oh whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:01:28):
I remember I went, I had I had to go
like a little health thing ten years ago. I had
to go get a ultrasound in my nuts. And I
thought I was being polite by making sure it was
all okay, you know what I mean, like cleaned up downstairs.
So I was talking to my buddy, the doctor, the

(01:01:48):
ass doctor we had on and I'm like, hey, I said, uh,
I just wanted to give your heads up, like I
don't know if I'm supposed to do that or not.
I was like, but I you know, I shaved everything,
you know, And he's like, you did what? And I
was like, That's why I wanted to be like, you know,
I'm like the person like, you know, they got to
like hold my nuts and scan it and stuff. I'm like,
I felt like I should be polite. He's like, do
you really think that person cares at all about your

(01:02:10):
nut sack? And I was like, I don't know, Like
I felt trying to do a good first impression. I
felt like I was being polite, you know what I mean,
Like I didn't want to pull out a you know,
gross bag. You know, so I was. I was trying
to be nice about it. He's like, you're out of
your mind. What's wrong with you? He's like, these are
the things you think about? I say, ed or a
better to err on the side of costume. I thought so.
But yes, it was very, very awkward. She was like

(01:02:33):
a twenty something, very young Asian woman who was doing it.
She could tell she was very new into her profession
of ultrasound technician.

Speaker 11 (01:02:42):
And again, I fully understand people's preferences. I fully understand
women who are like, eh, it's too like I said,
it's infantalizing, or you know, most people do it for
comfort other people, you know, listen, whatever, whatever you want
to do, you do you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:57):
Yeah, of course, how much is that bush thong? Thirty two?

Speaker 11 (01:03:00):
Yeah, it's a bargain at twice the p I might
buy one. I don't want it, but I might buy
one anyway. Oh, I'll buy one. I'll get it in
a variety of colors through Kims.

Speaker 2 (01:03:09):
Is that what it is? Yes, Kim.

Speaker 11 (01:03:11):
Sure, there's nothing in there that says it's just for ladies.

Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
Bush Thom Alan is Nicki Minaje or Kim Kardashian. You
can only choose one Kim Kardashian Cardasian all day long.
But I'm I do love Nicki Minaje. Don't get me wrong.

Speaker 11 (01:03:27):
You want to talk about the macaroni in a pot, Well,
it's easy, but it's not as easy as some other ones.
Right If you say to me, there's some tough ones. Alan,
you can only choose one Kim Kardashian or Mayambiolic.

Speaker 2 (01:03:40):
I go, who golly, oh, I know you're into the
smart ones. I don't know. She did do that one
scene where the guy spanked her on her bottom and
she went, yeah, I mean that was pretty hot. I
wasn't in the Blossom. No, No, that was on It's
that other stupid show, The Big Bang Theory.

Speaker 11 (01:04:03):
Elle and my wife and I were dating in the nineties.
I got my gum stuck in her shrubbery. We were
a newer thing, so I felt weird saying, why would
you be down there with gum in your mouth? You
amateur gum?

Speaker 2 (01:04:18):
Yeah that does seem pretty stupid.

Speaker 11 (01:04:20):
You swallow or spit that out before you even go
south of the equator.

Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
I got my gum stuck.

Speaker 11 (01:04:26):
I mean, you know that sounds to me like he
put it in there because he wanted it to shave.
You know, you get gum stuck in any hair when
you're a kid. They just grab the scissors they cut
it out.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
It's brilliant.

Speaker 11 (01:04:38):
This is this guy that's a long convoy for a
short con as it were.

Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
That's a great Ideah. No, I've got I got gum
stuck in here? Am I gonna do well? Plate?

Speaker 4 (01:04:50):
Oh? My short and curlyes smell like wintow green. It's
a weightless to get these.

Speaker 14 (01:04:57):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
Oh I bet bushes, Yeah, I bet. And they really do,
like if you look at the pictures, they really do
look like pubes. Yeah, it is a waitlist under one
hundred and five pounds. Uh yeah, I know it's dumb.
I know Alan Day for Benner.

Speaker 12 (01:05:20):
So I got to ask the question, is Woody slowly
turning into Dick? Because I swear the more he calls uh,
the more he forgets what the hell he's talking about,
or what he was calling for or and sometimes it's
just a little randomness. So to reiterate, is wood he

(01:05:44):
turn in Dick?

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
Peace?

Speaker 10 (01:05:46):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:05:46):
Dave.

Speaker 11 (01:05:46):
I don't think Woody is recently retired within the last year,
and usually when he calls, he's out there at the
lake house and he's at least a cuddle.

Speaker 2 (01:05:55):
Cuddle, a couple of kettle and tonics.

Speaker 11 (01:05:58):
Deep right, usually what he calls us, Oh, he's living
his best life.

Speaker 2 (01:06:02):
So no, I don't think it's that. I think he's
just like I like hearing for Woody.

Speaker 11 (01:06:06):
So is a lake I used to see him a
lot more frequently, but he doesn't come out to stuff
as much.

Speaker 2 (01:06:10):
If the lake house, is that a bar, or is
that he's on the east side. He's got a spot
there on the load. Okay, yeah, he's not a mansion.

Speaker 11 (01:06:17):
But I mean he's on the lake and he's out
there kicking it on his back porch, and he's retired.
So I think he you know, he works when he
wants to, has like a consultant in his.

Speaker 2 (01:06:26):
Industry or whatever.

Speaker 11 (01:06:27):
But other than that, he's back there, you know, a
couple fingers, a kettle deep.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
I think, good for him. Couple.

Speaker 11 (01:06:36):
Well, I'm just saying it's not when Woody calls and
he's like, oh, I forgot, it's not dementia.

Speaker 2 (01:06:43):
That's kind of where we are with Dick.

Speaker 11 (01:06:44):
You know, Dick's like a eighty year old man in
a convalescent home. Right, he's living the last chapter of
his life. Woody, say what you want. He's just getting
going lived the life of fifty men.

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
What the hell is Kevin's the fancy? Oh? I think
he's talking about crop. We know what the real Kevin?
What the hell is Kevin's the fancy?

Speaker 18 (01:07:14):
So upset about just let people live their freaking lives.

Speaker 2 (01:07:19):
Who cares if they were passing out beers at this did?
He says he did. It's supposed to be live lives,
like Cheeves lives.

Speaker 18 (01:07:28):
They were passing out beers at this Halloween thing, you
wouldn't give it? Damn whatever. I don't like Halloween decorations either,
but it's work. You gotta work with other people. Yeah, ass,
oh yeah, alright, I'm sorry, and I am aware. I
know I'm grumpy. I know I get it.

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
But if they're serving beers at the event, sure I'll
have a beer. And you know what, the day of
the event, I would say, oh cool, look there's Halloween decorations.
Thank you. They'll be gone tomorrow. But the fact they're
here two weeks in advance is dumb helpful how you
cut it up, it's dumb. Hopefully it'll be a pumpkin beer.

Yeah, it's one way to do it. Alan.

Speaker 11 (01:12:10):
When I was young, the first time I was down
there with a lady, I thought Azerbert would be a
good idea.

Speaker 2 (01:12:15):
It was not a good idea.

Speaker 11 (01:12:17):
Yeah, That's why you kind of got to get your
moxie before you get down there and start working like

I have no interest in traumatizing anyone, all right. When
I am in my birthday suit, I need to be
in my full glory. I need to be under a spotlight.
Quite frankly, I'm there to do my best work. You
think this is my best work? O contreer mon frere.

(01:13:10):
I will have Goodbye Horses on repeat, though, you know,
tucking it. Ted Levine Buffalo Bill from Parma, Ohio. Either way, Yeah,
Ted Levine's from Parma. Of course, He's in one of
my favorite movies of all time.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
He's in Heat. He doesn't make it to the end
of the movie. Spoiler.

Speaker 11 (01:13:28):
I saw they're gonna do Heat too, with Adam Driver
and Leonardo DiCaprio. Oh boy, well the book? Has they
did a Heat two book?

Speaker 2 (01:13:36):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (01:13:37):
And Ted Levine born in bel Air, Ohio, right there
on the river. But I think he grew up in Parma.
That just makes me so nervous.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
I couldn't love an actor more than I love Leonardo DiCaprio.

Speaker 11 (01:13:49):
Is that true? Very true? Him in a bad movie?
Well that I can think of off the top of
my head. I think he is a national treasure. Okay,
I am petrified of screwing with Heat. I know it
won't take away from what the original Heat was. I
just think certain things need to be left alone.

Speaker 2 (01:14:10):
Are you gonna go see that? Are you gonna go
see One Battle after another?

Speaker 19 (01:14:13):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:14:14):
This his new movie? I have not seen. I don't
even think I see the preview for that.

Speaker 11 (01:14:18):
Oh okay, One Battle after another, One Battle after another.
It just opened and it's supposed apparently it's gonna bomb
hard because Fox News got a hold of it and
they're like, oohs is woke propaganda or whatever. Paul Thomas Anderson,
it's his new movie, and he's of course a very
accomplished director. But yeah, I guess One Battle after Another
is gonna be a huge bomb. Well just from well yeah,

(01:14:40):
I mean right out of the gates seat again, I
mean just the subject matter. Whatever the movie is, people
don't know. They're not promoting it very well. People don't
know what it is. It feels like a passion project
of some kind for DiCaprio to maybe work with Paul
Thomas Anderson. But nobody knows what it's about other than
a guy who's like it feels like a kind of
an update of Falling Down Michael Douglas. The movie's projected

(01:15:02):
to lose one hundred million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:15:04):
And I'll watch it, but I but you can see
right out of the shoot, this is what we were
talking about yesterday. One hundred percent of the time. You're
going to piss off fifty percent of the people when
it says right in the thing, living in a sterup
state of paranoia with his daughter Willa after their freedom
fighting revolution goes awry, Oh good, Yeah, let's uh yeah.
Half of the people ain't gonna go see that.

Speaker 11 (01:15:24):
Why well, but that's but that's a movie. First of all,
that's a movie. I'm surprised got greenlit. I guess if
you have DiCaprio, they'll just write you a check. Of course,
Paul Thomas Anderson's great, but under normal circumstances, nobody would
greenlight that movie. No, Paul Thomas Anderson, of course, the
guy that did Magnoli on Boogie Knights and there will
be blood and I mean that guy's unbelievable. He is,

(01:15:46):
of course married to the great Maya Rudolph, and I'm
sure DiCaprio will deliver an incredible performance.

Speaker 2 (01:15:54):
Again, I can't think of anything that he has been
in that I think is bad.

Speaker 11 (01:15:59):
And I know, oh you love but irrespective of DiCaprio,
I know you love Titanic. I love the Titanic NERD. Yeah,
so DiCaprio being in it? Is that the movie that
got you into Leo DiCaprio?

Speaker 2 (01:16:12):
No? No, uh what Gangs of New York?

Speaker 11 (01:16:17):
Okay, Romeo and Juliet No like that? That stuff I
guess I didn't care for. So it was a little
bit later, I guess, probably after Titanic and forward right
like all of those.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
When was Gangs in New York? That had to be
what late nineties.

Speaker 11 (01:16:32):
I think, so, I mean, Gilbert Grape is the first
of all. The first thing I remember him was growing
pains yes, well, Kirk Cameron, but what's eating Gilbert Grape
when he played the mentally challenge kid. Yep, the Man
in the Iron Mask Basketball Diaries, that was all the young,
smooth DiCaprio nineties stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:16:53):
This boy's life right with de Niro. I'm trying to
think of, like, uh, I would say, it's probably around
that Gangs of New York time that I jumped in
with both feet on him and was like, all right,
this dude's all right, Gangs of New York. I'm thinking
it's around there. Okay, I'm looking at his Uh.

Speaker 11 (01:17:12):
I am too, see Gangs in New York, Quick and
the Dead Once upon Time in Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Gangs in New York was two thousand and two. Okay,
so before that was Catch Me if you can, The Beach,
The Man in the Iron Mask, The Beach. There's a
crappy DiCaprio movie. Yea, that wasn't great, terrible, So let's
all right, Quick in the Dead. He was a kid
in that. Hey, this is way before he was anything.

Speaker 14 (01:17:33):
Right.

Speaker 2 (01:17:33):
The gat Oh, Jampott, what are you kidding me? The
Pot is fantastic, one of his best movies ever.

Speaker 11 (01:17:40):
Yeah, everybody that CA has is stacked Baldwin and Inception
was great? Yes, Inception, I mean, I mean really, you
run through it. He does not make bad movies. Shutter Island.
Didn't care for Shutter Island. I know that's an unpopular opinion.
Did not care for Shutter Island and the Revenue where
he gets riped bear.

Speaker 2 (01:18:01):
Yeah, that one I didn't love. I mean the movie
was good till that part was like, Jesus, this poor guy.
The Great Gatsby was good. Didn't see that. I read
the book that was plenty. What was the catch me
if you can? Did I say that one already? Yeah?

Speaker 11 (01:18:15):
The eydes A match? How about Blood Diamond is in Django?

Speaker 2 (01:18:19):
Right? Great? And Django? Yep? That you know? That scene
when he cuts his hand is real, right, Yes, slammed
his hand down on the table, cut it on the glass. Yeah, Leo, dude,
you cut your hand? Kick?

Speaker 9 (01:18:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 16 (01:18:32):
No.

Speaker 11 (01:18:33):
A lot of his stuff. I think there's more of
his movies I haven't seen. I've never seen Critters three,
never saw that, never saw Jay Edgary play Jay Gary.
I saw that, And now is he I have to
assume that part of that film is the cross dressing thing.
Is he walking around in like a camasol at something
that was doing it for you.

Speaker 2 (01:18:50):
But there was a little something something for everybody. That
was a Clint Eastwood movie that he directed. Killers Are
the Flower Moon I've not seen, but I wanted to.
Wolf of All Street. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
is one of my favorite Uh uh, what the hell's
his name? Brad Pitt? No, no, no, no, no no.
The Quentin Tarantino movies. Oh Tarantino. Did you did you

(01:19:12):
see Once upon a Time in Hollywood? I did. Oh,
it's great.

Speaker 11 (01:19:14):
I like how they kind of played with history, like
Brad Pitt, Yeah, kicks the piss out of the Manson kids.

Speaker 2 (01:19:20):
Yeah, well, you thought right at that moment that up
until the last five I'm not going to try to
ruin it for everybody. But he hasn't seen it, but
it's six years ago. Yeah, right up until the last second,
you think you know what's gonna happen. Yeah. Oh god,
there's Sharon Tate. Oh no, there's the Manson guy. Oh cool, Right,
I love that movie.

Speaker 11 (01:19:38):
I would like to rewatch Inception because I haven't seen
that movie in a long time, and I remember really liking.

Speaker 2 (01:19:44):
It was great. Yeah, I loved Inception it was a
trip man. I bought that one on Blu Ray because
it was one of those things. I was like, I'm
gonna get really strong, just keep watching this for you.

Speaker 11 (01:19:56):
I haven't set on Blue Ray. Too good for you? No,
I feel like I feel like I got it as
a promotional copy.

Speaker 2 (01:20:04):
I don't know that they bought it. I bought it.

Speaker 11 (01:20:06):
What do you think the last now I know Too
Close for Comfort? The entire series. I was gonna say,
what's the last thing you bought on DVD? Can you
recall the last thing you ever bought on physical digital
versatile disc?

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
When did they stop? When did when did the world
really stop getting DVDs?

Speaker 11 (01:20:25):
I mean when Netflix stopped mailing them out? People are
still buying them. I mean not everybody's got Netflix, right,
so people still go and they still go shoulder deep
in them Walmart drums full of two dollars DVDs. Mary
Santora was buying them all the time, So not everybody is.
You know, some people still buy physical copies. I'm just
saying for me, I couldn't other than the entire series

(01:20:45):
of Too Close for Comfort, which was an impulse buy
during the show on Amazon.

Speaker 2 (01:20:49):
I couldn't tell you what it had before that I
know exactly what it was. I forget how.

Speaker 11 (01:20:52):
Many DVDs I have until I open up, like the
the entertainment cabinet that never gets opened, I go, oh
my god, look at all.

Speaker 2 (01:20:58):
These boxes of them. I have no unpacked yet from
when I moved here. My DVD players in that same box.
The last thing I bought. I know for a fact,
I wanted to rewatch Band of Brothers. Oh yeah, in
that metal box. Yeah, And I was. I was plastered
one night and I was like, I'm gonna buy Band
of Brothers and I'm gonna have it here tomorrow because

(01:21:18):
we have Amazon, and I bought it and it's still
sitting in the cellphone. I opened it. Yeah, but I
because it was streaming. I'm just such an idiot, you know.
And he's had to look. But yeah, no, I've seen
that three or four times. That's that's incredible. You have
VHS tapes left? I don't think that I do. If
I do, it's porn.

Speaker 11 (01:21:34):
I got a couple in a cardboard box that I've
held on too, and I need to get them transferred
to something else.

Speaker 2 (01:21:39):
I wish I hung on to that stuff because I mean,
you look look at like those Disney movies. They're worth
a fortune, but they're all.

Speaker 11 (01:21:44):
But what I have is like really dumb, like comedy
bootlegs and stuff like Rowan Atkinson Live and The Young Ones.

Speaker 2 (01:21:49):
Remember the Young Ones?

Speaker 4 (01:21:50):
Yeah, the complete series of The Young Ones, because I
think it was only on two seasons.

Speaker 2 (01:21:54):
Yeah, I don't. I don't think I have anything. And
if I and if I made the joke about porn,
if I have porn, it's still DVDs. And I don't
even think I have any of that. I think I
just threw all that stuff away cotton balls. Just bought
Superman on DVD. I tried.

Speaker 11 (01:22:12):
I tried it again, tried watching it again. I can't
not sticking. I don't even hate it. I just don't
care about it. I saw it and I was like, eh,
I'll watch it again. When I saw it started streaming
a couple of weeks ago, I got through like thirty
five minutes of it, I go, nope.

Speaker 2 (01:22:29):
We've been watching the Last of Us every night, so
I wanted to. Last night, I wanted to sit down
and watch Naked Gun because we had just talked about
it and I I was like you want to watch that.
She's like, I don't know. I want to finish the
last of Us. So we watched two episodes of that.
That show does get better. Yeah, like I thought it
was okay in the beginning. The whole like way people

(01:22:51):
were getting sick was weird to me. But now that
I'm into it, I'm into it, like I dig it.
I was just so let down by the Walking Dead
that I was afraid that was going to happen again. Yeah. No,
I wasn't really like that. Rico Palazzo it is in
Arico Polanco. Watch.

Speaker 11 (01:23:19):
I think I have the old I think I have
the old Police Squad TV show on DVD somewhere. Oh
why you original Leslie Nielsen Police Squad. I have made
the Naked Gun from.

Speaker 2 (01:23:31):
All the movies. I have every one of the Naked
Gun movies for sure. I have I have a double
It was Porky's and Porky's Too. It was on a
two sided dm D. I know I have Revenge of
the Nerds and Revenge of the Nerds too.

Speaker 11 (01:23:48):
People tell me they still buy blu Raine four k all.
We have a DVD player in a mini van. I
buy them out of the bins at Walmart all the time.

Speaker 2 (01:23:54):
Yeah, it makes sense for the kids.

Speaker 11 (01:23:56):
Yeah, you got kids and you're going road shirt and stuff. Yeah,
or just you know, keeping them keeping their balls entertained.

Speaker 2 (01:24:01):
I still cannot believe, for the life of me, I
cannot believe with all the bandwidth that a company like
Serious XM has that they never thought to take all
of those crap channels that no one listens to and
turn ninety percent of them right and turn that into
backseat programming for kids. Like how that's not like Nickelodeon

(01:24:22):
and Disney Channel. I don't understand how that makes any
sense in the world. I don't know, you know what
I mean, Like, no one's listening to the forties on four.
Everyone's dead, you know what I mean?

Speaker 11 (01:24:34):
Like, just how are you knop kick a baby when
you walk.

Speaker 1 (01:24:37):
In the door.

Speaker 2 (01:24:41):
It's just not happening anymore. Saparilla in the summer time.

Speaker 11 (01:24:47):
It's a Chris Hardwick deep cut, but it's a good one. Alan,
I had the original Star Wars Trilogy VHS.

Speaker 2 (01:24:52):
I do too. I have it in that box.

Speaker 11 (01:24:54):
I think for like the god what was it like
the twenty year anniversary or something. It's like all three
of those original ones in a box that had like
felt on the inside or something. Last DVD this person
bought was Dark Knight Rises thirteen years ago.

Speaker 2 (01:25:13):
Oh the Batman, Yeah, the Batman. Ellen.

Speaker 11 (01:25:16):
I last purchased Rush Time Machine DVD that last show
in Cleveland.

Speaker 2 (01:25:21):
Yeah, that's a good one too. Ethan bought Mars Attacks
two months ago on purpose. Yeah, I dare.

Speaker 11 (01:25:31):
You to buy that Mars Attacks. Oh you never see
it out in the wild. They're probably like, oh, well
you always see those.

Speaker 2 (01:25:38):
Bins in Walmart or wherever you get. Yeah, that's like
the minivan person's talking about. Ellen.

Speaker 11 (01:25:44):
I love my mom, Restor Sould, but she was a drinker.
This is Norman Detroit. She's a drinker, and your Dodgeball
came out. She drunkenly told every person we know that
we liked the movie, which I never remember telling her.
So for Christmas, my brothers and I ended up with
four copies of that movie.

Speaker 2 (01:26:02):
It's a good movie. You don't need four copies of it,
but it's a good movie.

Speaker 11 (01:26:04):
Well, it sounds like you like when you're a kid
and your parents go, oh, you like dinosaurs, and then
everything for the next ten years of dinosaurs y. So
it sounds like he's like everybody in their family got
him a freaking copy at Dodgeball.

Speaker 4 (01:26:17):
Well, alcohol is fun, isn't it fun?

Speaker 9 (01:26:21):
Fun?

Speaker 2 (01:26:22):
Fun?

Speaker 5 (01:26:23):
Hello?

Speaker 11 (01:26:23):

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
Yeah, you just do what. I've been climbing ladder since
I was twelve years old, so I've did. That's not
a problem for me.

Speaker 11 (01:27:12):

labor laws is what he's trying to tell us. So yeah,

Yeah, and climbing roofs. What could wrong? You can take me,
but you canda take me.

Speaker 20 (01:27:44):
Boomhold Hey, listen, you guys are turning about VHS.

Speaker 2 (01:27:51):
I've got an old VHS.

Speaker 20 (01:27:53):
Player and a bunch of tapes hermetically shieled in U
a plastic bin in my garage. Yeah, and like like
Rob said, you know, some of it's some of that's
old eighties porn where the ladies look like they got
you know, a guy and a buck wed so they got.

Speaker 2 (01:28:12):
Lou El Sindor in a leg lock.

Speaker 20 (01:28:15):
Yeah, I gotcha, right, But I kept the most because
like an idiot, I had to buy those Timeline a century.

Speaker 5 (01:28:23):
Of wookster of VHS tapes.

Speaker 2 (01:28:26):
You did from time you bought the Time Life? Oh wow,
I had that. They saw you coming. Yeah, you know,
well I was young and dumb.

Speaker 11 (01:28:35):
I'm about two hours into the ken Burns Country music documentary.
It's like fifteen hours long, and I'm like, why am
I watching this? And it finally occurred to me because
he has the actor Peter Coyote narrate his documentaries, and
that guy's voice is there's just something about it. Remember
Peter Coyote, he was like the doctor and et and

(01:28:55):
you know him if you saw him. But he narrates
ken Burns documentary's at least a couple that I've seen.
I'm like, God, this guy's voice, it's just like, eh,
it's like butter, I love lessen to. This guy makes
anything sound interesting. Rob Now all right, good, uh, thank
you have fun out there, Woody cheers. All right, there's whatdy?

Speaker 2 (01:29:14):
Cheers. Stephen Parma Allan.

Speaker 11 (01:29:16):
I just connected my dad's VCR to a new sixty
five inch four K TV and put in the Titanic VHS.

Speaker 2 (01:29:22):
And it looks horrible. Yeah, that's gonna look bad.

Speaker 11 (01:29:25):
You're crossing the streams there with your formats.

Speaker 2 (01:29:29):
The Allen Cox Show.

Speaker 8 (01:29:31):
On one, I met Allen?

Speaker 2 (01:29:36):
Did you I gave him marijuana? Oh great?

Speaker 8 (01:29:40):
The Allen Cox Show on one double mms.

Speaker 2 (01:29:57):
Hey, Cavs win last night, just under the wire.

Speaker 11 (01:30:01):
For the preseason, we're gonna go oh into four before
they get going one eighteen to one hundred over the
Detroit Pistons. They will take the week and then they
will return to begin the regular season on Wednesday night
against the Knickerbockers of New York City, and then they'll
play the Nets there in Brooklyn, I'm sorry, oh, Wednesday

(01:30:21):
against the Knicks, and then Friday in Brooklyn against the Nets.
They will come home for the home opener on the
twenty sixth. That is a Sunday here at home. Of course,
as the home opener part implies, I we'll have more
tickets for you tomorrow and Friday. Put you at that
game around three to ten here, and I'll have more

(01:30:41):
Monsters tickets for you as well. Their home openers this
Friday night. And those are four packs of tickets there.
We're talking about movies that are bombing, talking about that
DiCaprio movie. Very quickly.

Speaker 4 (01:30:53):
They are going to lose a ton of money on
Disney is going to end the Tron franchise because they've
lost some much money on this movie.

Speaker 2 (01:31:01):
I still haven't seen it.

Speaker 11 (01:31:02):
I guess I'll have to see it before it's out
of the theater, before it's I guess I could watch
it's streaming at home. But the jury is out on
whether or not Jared Leto can remain a viable movie star.

Speaker 2 (01:31:17):
I guess.

Speaker 11 (01:31:17):
I mean, he's an Oscar winner, he won for Dallas
Buyers Club, and you know, he's top of the line
in a lot of these movies. But they Disney spent
a ton of money on the Tron movie, one hundred
and eighty million dollars, so it was a huge risk
for them because between promotion they're like, you basically have
to make twice your budget if you want to break

(01:31:38):
even on a movie. And they said, we're probably going
to kill this franchise, this Tron franchise, because it's lost
so much money in the process. They made a little
bit over sixty million dollars worldwide, and it probably won't
be out for much longer. But again, they're dropping these

(01:31:59):
sequels like every fifteen years.

Speaker 2 (01:32:00):
You know.

Speaker 11 (01:32:01):
The first trom very nostalgic for that if you're kind
of a gen xer the eighties, you know, and Jared
Leto is a guy who is like, I want to
make this kind of money. But after Morbius flopped and
now the Tron movie flopped, they're like, yeah, we're not
gonna keep this going. So they said, Disney will probably

(01:32:24):
just do away with the Tron franchise. So see why
you can this will be the last one.

Speaker 2 (01:32:30):
Yeah, it sounds that way for sure.

Speaker 11 (01:32:35):
Anyway, I like Jared Leto, but I know a lot
of people don't. Boy, they buried that story on him.
You know, they were freaking out because all these girls
are coming forward saying that he groomed them years ago
and blah blah blah, and he like, you know, he's
got this retreat or something in the middle of nowhere
that people say is analogous to like a cult. But
you know, he's not forcing anyone to be there how

(01:32:57):
But you know, he's a rock star in his own
right too. So we've been if the movie thing flops,
you know, you go on tour, you do just fine
with thirty seconds to Mars. But when that story broke,
and I don't remember if it was in Variety of
Rolling Stone or whatever it was, that Jared Letto was
beyond problematic. I was like, oh, this ain't good, because
they get ready to drop him in this Tron movie,

(01:33:19):
and I don't know that that you know that one
had anything to do with the other. But there's a
lot of people that, you know, Jared Leto has kind
of worn out his welcome with them.

Speaker 2 (01:33:32):
I think maybe it's a good looking dude though. Tell
you what, guy's my age.

Speaker 11 (01:33:38):
He's been on the show a couple times over the years.
The good looking guy, affable. But yeah, I guess he's uh.

Speaker 2 (01:33:45):
I don't know there.

Speaker 11 (01:33:46):
Disney's like, we're not going to make any more of
these movies because they lose too much money.

Speaker 2 (01:33:52):
What are you gonna do about that? Nothing? Now?

Speaker 11 (01:33:55):
Could we make our own dy Tron movie here at
the Alan Coock Show, of course? Yes, of course are
we gonna do that? Probably not the toilet paper tubes, yes,
be hard to replicate the specific well, it would be
really retro, right. That first Tron movie at the time

(01:34:17):
represented state of the art effects.

Speaker 2 (01:34:20):
Do you know that I've never sat through an entire
Tron film.

Speaker 11 (01:34:24):
I loved that Tron video game when I used to
go to the roller skating rink trying to pick up
girls and I'm playing Defender and Cubert and Zachxon and
Crystal Castles.

Speaker 2 (01:34:33):
I loved that Tron game. I just I tried to
watch that Tron movie no less than twenty times, the
first one, and I'm like, this is the stupidest thing
I've ever seen in my life. Bored the hell out
of me. And then I've never gone back for seconds
for any of the others.

Speaker 11 (01:34:45):
Yeah, people forget that Bruce box Lightner was the big
star in the first Well, no, Jeff Bridge is a
big star by then, but I mean he was like
the main guy in the first Tron movie. No one
asked for this reboot. Is the one review of Tron Air,
marking the end of Jared Leto's franchise.

Speaker 2 (01:35:04):
Leading days. What is the premise of the movie.

Speaker 11 (01:35:07):
Premise of the movie is that the guy is pulled
into a computer, right, Kevin Flynn. That's Jeff Bridge's character,
and he's been the connective tissue through all of these
iterations of this. He's a computer programmer, he's a video
game developer. Remember in nineteen eighty two, this represented, like
I said, state of the art.

Speaker 2 (01:35:27):
Nobody had seen a movie like this.

Speaker 11 (01:35:29):
It was one of the first movies that was I
think computer generated, or it was because they were gonna
make it an animated film, and it ended up using
actual computer animation for it, And so it was like
combined this live action footage that looked like it was
in a computer and it wasn't. I mean, it did

(01:35:50):
okay when it was out, but I don't really think
it took on this outsized influence until a long time later.
So anyway, so Kevin Flynn, that's Jeff Bridges. He's pulled
into the software of this computer and on the outside
he's got this buddy on the inside. His buddy is
this guy Tron. Remember the blonde in Caddyshack, Cindy Morrigan.

(01:36:13):
She has died not long ago. She's most famous for Caddyshack.
She was the female lead in Tron.

Speaker 2 (01:36:17):
Would you tie me up with your ties?

Speaker 10 (01:36:19):
Tie?

Speaker 4 (01:36:20):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (01:36:20):
But she was real cute at Yeah. I love Tron
as a kid, I mean I was ten. But the
budget was seventeen million dollars in nineteen eighty two and.

Speaker 11 (01:36:28):
It made fifty Yeah, like it did okay, Yeah, so
you know now and they're spending one hundred and eighty
million dollars on a third one. Again, I don't understand
what's going All these studios.

Speaker 2 (01:36:39):
Now are like we're broke, we don't have any money.

Speaker 11 (01:36:41):
Why are you spending one hundred and eighty You can't
you can't convince people that something's awesome, right, I mean,
Tron at its best was like a very niche franchise.

Speaker 2 (01:36:55):
Right, So that's eighty two. Tron Legacy comes out.

Speaker 11 (01:37:01):
Almost twenty years later, and yeah, makes a lot of
money because people remember the first one, you know, the
if you avoid the sophomore slump, it's that third one
that'll jam you up. So Daft Punk does the music
for that second one. They were at the height of
their powers in twenty ten.

Speaker 2 (01:37:19):
Wow, Yeah, that's a huge profit. One hundred and seventy million.
They grossed four h nine.

Speaker 11 (01:37:24):
Right, so this time around they go, well, we spent
one hundred and seventy million on the last one, but
that was the second one. You're like, everybody who loved
Tron wants to see the next iteration of it, So
got Jeff Bridges.

Speaker 2 (01:37:38):
But by the time you.

Speaker 11 (01:37:39):
Go to a third one, you're like, well, we're gonna
rely very heavily on whatever the updated effects are, which
look pretty cool. Listen, I want to see this movie,
but I don't know that people are looking at Jared
Leto and are like, I gotta see this guy, and
I'm you know, I don't know. The last movie Jared

(01:38:01):
Leto headlined that was a big hit. He played like
this serial killer type in some Denzel movie and he
was in House of Gucci. That was the last time
he was on this show. Was we were talking about
House of Gucci. But he was under a lot of makeup.
And I love Jeff Bridges, right, I would watch Jeff
Bridges read street signs. I don't care what this guy does,

(01:38:24):
but yeah, I don't know. I don't know who at
Disney was like, let's spend almost two hundred million dollars
on this movie. Of course we'll make it. I mean again,
you know, if you're a movie to break even, you
have to make double your budget. So they would have
had to have made because I guess they're looking at
the Second Tron and they go, that made four hundred
million dollars, right, we can do that with this one.

Speaker 2 (01:38:47):
And but I'd be like, man, I don't know the
third one because they had to make almost four hundred million.

Speaker 11 (01:38:53):
Well that's what I'm saying. And there were a lot of
people didn't like the second one. People were like, eh, yeah,
one of them. I mean Olivia Wilde in skin tight costumes. Yes, please,
sounds great, but they're not for you.

Speaker 2 (01:39:08):
Rob. And by the way, I forbid you to watch
any of these things like that. I appreciate that letting
me off the hook. Yeah, oh, you're too good for Tron.
Maybe yeah, perhaps yuh.

Speaker 11 (01:39:25):
David Warner was the bad guy in the first Tron,
great British actor David Warner. He was the uh because
the premise of trom the original was that all of
the computer programs were kind of the avatars for real
people that were on the outside. So like, his boss
is in the computer, but he's a big bad guy.
He's Sark, who's like the the big bad in there

(01:39:48):
talking about streaming and stuff. Did you see that they
have officially killed TiVo? I thought that was gone years ago. Boy,
so did I. TiVo used to be saying to the
art as well. But they have stopped. The company has
stopped selling the Tvo units. You don't really need them anymore.
But they were the first of their kind. They've been

(01:40:08):
making it for twenty six years. That was a cutting
edge boy in the early two thousands. Oh yeah, they
were like.

Speaker 2 (01:40:14):
You can watch shows whenever you want.

Speaker 11 (01:40:17):
Kind of the precursors streaming. No tapes, you can take
a hard drive. So they officially got out of the
hardware business the beginning of this month, and they will
no longer sell TiVo. So that's weird too that Tvo
is now going to be antique hardware at some point.
And by far the best of all the remote sounds yep.

Speaker 2 (01:40:40):
Book, yep. I never had it was always the best.
I never had it either, but we had it at
work and I used to have to pull actualities for
our morning shows and I would hit that it hit
the buttons. Its sounded so good. Yep. That's the reward
of the fast foward. Yep.

Speaker 11 (01:41:05):
I only know the little popping noise. I don't know
all the other noises. What's the bass drug kettle drum noise.

Speaker 2 (01:41:11):
That I don't know.

Speaker 11 (01:41:12):
It sounds like something wrong right, sounds like he screwed
something up. I was gonna say something like somebody taking
a dump, but.

Speaker 2 (01:41:23):
It would hit when you would hit the center button.
That was the other sounded. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:41:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:41:27):
I never I had friends with him. I just never
had a t bow. It never got around there hours
dicking with the t baut training. Oh, I gotta pull
something funny, jay Leno said last night. Uh huh. And
you'd look for an hour before you found something funny,
jay Leno said. And then.

Speaker 11 (01:41:41):
Alan, I think I know why Rob is the way
he is today. Today he is I'll share in the
live stream here National Grouch Day. There's a picture of Oscar.
I think it's purely coincidental. You know, today is also
National Wash your Hands Day, which Jesus Christ I didn't
know there had to be a special day for this.

Speaker 2 (01:42:00):
What are you people doing? Oh yeah, post pandemic, you
still got to tell people to wash their hands. We
work with people who do not ever wash their hands
after they use the bathroom. I'll tell you what.

Speaker 11 (01:42:12):
It's a zero sum game in the men's room because
they finally got the toilets figured out, and then the
urinals are weird, and then there's no paper products at
all their backs. You're like, oh they are, yeah, today,
got paper towel again. We are just there is a
hand dryer in there. I'm just saying, those well just
fine in a pins. No, but if you've washed your hands,

(01:42:33):
then why are their fecal flakes in the air.

Speaker 2 (01:42:36):
There's pooh in the air. Poo in the air, Yeah,
pooh air.

Speaker 4 (01:42:42):
But it's but if you've washed your hands and then
you're just you're yeah, but you're sucking air from inside
of a bathroom under your hand. All those germs are
blowing through that dryer. Well, then why would anybody wash
their hands?

Speaker 2 (01:42:55):
I think I always wash your hands, use a towel,
or wipe on your pants before you use the dryer.
I don't like the dryer. But it's just blowing out air.
But it's not where's it getting the air from the machine,
which is getting air from where I don't know how
to in the bedroom, But it's but it's high powered air.

Speaker 11 (01:43:12):
It can't be sucking air. It can't be ingesting air
from the room that fast. Of course it is, really,
it has to. I mean, how well is it going.

Speaker 2 (01:43:20):
It's not storing air, no, correct, So it's taking it
from the air in the can. So you're just blasting
ass air into your hands and face and mouth and teeth.

Speaker 11 (01:43:34):
Not only to blow air out, a hand dryer first
has to draw air in from the surrounding atmosphere. Because
washroom air contains bacteria and microscopic fecal particles. Some people
have jumped to conclusions about the safety of hand dryers,
but the truth is dryers are better at destroying germs
than spreading them.

Speaker 2 (01:43:51):
I assume because of the heat. Maybe Okay, still don't
like it.

Speaker 11 (01:43:57):
The recirculation may result in the dispersion of effective aerosols.

Speaker 2 (01:44:01):
Already in the atmosphere.

Speaker 11 (01:44:03):
I'm playing infective aerosols on two hours to midnight this week,
bitther and those generated by hands being rubbed together for drying.
All right, so you are not a hand dryer. What
about those dice in blades right there? It wasn't that
the whole point of those to stop the dispersal as
you put.

Speaker 2 (01:44:19):
Your hands in and it keeps the uh still blowing
bathroom air. I mean, I use at tug tug.

Speaker 11 (01:44:30):
Tug tug because you kind of can't win, right, People
were like, oh, paper towels so wasteful. Use the hairdry
hand dryer. And then they were like, yeah, but that
blows poo al over the place. You can't win. You
can't win just trying to dry my hands.

Speaker 2 (01:44:42):
That's why, like whenever we're out of like the last
few days around here, I would just walk down the hallway,
going like this with my hands until they you're right, Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:44:48):
But then you're doing jazz hands when you when you're
walking down the hallway once your reject your you know, robs,
like walking to the hall auditioning for a West Side story. Yeah,
paper towel are more sanitary, but they're wasteful. Yeah, I
would rather use paper towels.

Speaker 2 (01:45:04):
That's me same.

Speaker 11 (01:45:06):
But I understand where people are coming from because you
just got to stand there for a long time right
under the thing and rebby hands and plus paper towels.
I don't know if you do this, I tend to
do this. I opened the door with paper towel on
my hand and then I throw it away. Yep, I'll
put paper towel in my hand on the handle, open

(01:45:27):
the door, throw the paper towel away because all kinds
of you know, somebody doesn't wash their hands and they're
grabbing that handle with their pooh hand.

Speaker 2 (01:45:34):
Pooh hand. So there's that. You know, those all the
really high powered ones are made by Excel Dryer. Do
you know where those are made? Excelville, New Hampshire, East Longmeadow, Massachusetts,
town right where I lived for twenty something years.

Speaker 4 (01:45:52):
So you're had no idea your hometown's job creator, right.

Speaker 2 (01:45:56):
Oh yeah, I woke up there at the hand dry
a factory. Well I do it all that George blowing
peeing poor on the air kid, Yeah, it's it's uh
right mind. My dad spent funny years going into the
hair dryer mines. They're gonna talk shrimp about them. They
started with those machines that took forty five manes. Like
drying your hands with a toaster. Yeah, in a little

(01:46:19):
as well, blow on your own hands. Back of the day,
Remember those dryers you hit that big silver button. Oh yeah,
we'd be like like, I just sit there and be like, yeah, okay,
I guess it's just drying because I'm rubbing my hands together. Yeah,
it's like hot breath.

Speaker 11 (01:46:33):
So Alan, how did it work out for you trying
to pick up girls while playing Tron and Cubert at
the roller Oh it did not. That's why I was
relegated to over there by the video games. Uh, your
boy had heavy pockets full of quarters.

Speaker 2 (01:46:48):
I wasn't. No, that's what you did. You went to
the roller rink, But no, I was not the Uh.
I was not the Don Juan of the roller rink. Oh,
looks like Alan's having a great day. He's got two
rolls the quarters in his hands today. Yeah right, Or
you just happy to see me. I'm really happy to
see you. But you don't wanna You don't want to
couples skate with me, Allan. I was literally just taking

(01:47:12):
a whiz at work and saw a coworker flush the toilet,
walk out of the stall, and get right back to work.
So gross man.

Speaker 11 (01:47:19):
When Jerry is in the bathroom of Poppy's restaurant and
he sees Poppy come out of the stall and doesn't
wash his hands, gotta does a double take.

Speaker 2 (01:47:25):
You got a guy here, He says, uh uh, my
thing's cleaner than whatever I'm gonna now touch.

Speaker 11 (01:47:32):
Nasp, Yeah, me too, but I still wash my hands.
Of course, who knows what you're touching? To you that that's
everybody's excuse. Why would that be your excuse to not
wash your hands? My dog is cleaning anything else? So
what good tell you? But you know who it is?
You got a clean dog? Why do you not care
about clean hands?

Speaker 2 (01:47:50):
Yeah? I would much, I would. I would be happy
to have clean hands and a clean dog. Whoops, Alan,
They're called charticles. All right, it's pretty good too. Pooh,
hand luke.

Speaker 4 (01:48:05):
What we have here is failure to wash all hands.

Speaker 11 (01:48:10):
Stuffing hard boiled eggs in his mouth. Rob does know
he's already breathing in the bathroom air, right, Yes, no, see,
I practiced holding my breath, so the entire time I'm
in the men's room, I'm holding my breath. I'm like
Tom Cruise in one of these Mission Impossible movie.

Speaker 2 (01:48:27):
But it's not accelerated jet speed charticle air.

Speaker 11 (01:48:33):
Alan MythBusters did this a long time ago. The hand
dryer actually did disperse matter and other bacteria all over
the room.

Speaker 2 (01:48:40):
Yes, vindicated.

Speaker 11 (01:48:43):
Yeah, I remember when it was an old cloth towel
on the roll that.

Speaker 2 (01:48:49):
I mean, those were old timey even when I remember them.
But holy cow, yeah then, and they would no matter what,
they'd be like, oh no, yeah, they dry inside him
by the time they come back around there, and yeah,
I'm like, oh no, no, no, all they're doing is
baking the crap that's on them. Yeah, you know what
I mean, somebody throws a booger on it just makes
a oh no.

Speaker 11 (01:49:10):
Yeah, oh it's coming back around again, just like the
people of the Sun. Alan my dad owned a restroom
supply company and I worked for him, And this is
definitely true in a good sales pitch for him to
constantly sell paper towel. Yeah, hey, hey, do you guys
you need more paper towel? You got fecal particles all

(01:49:33):
of it. You don't want that hair dryer? Hand dryer?

Speaker 2 (01:49:35):
Yeah? Hello, yeah, this excel dry as here in East
Long Mata. What do you? What do you do paper towels?
All right?

Speaker 8 (01:49:43):
Hold one Allen Cox Show on one of its.

Speaker 2 (01:49:50):
Call the Alan Cox Show.

Speaker 20 (01:49:52):
Alan Cox is the worst dry time personality I've ever.

Speaker 5 (01:50:00):
Two one six seven eight one double oh seven or
one eight three for eight one double oh seven.

Speaker 11 (01:50:30):
Cavaliers win last night end of the preseason one eighteen
to one hundred over the Detroit Pistons. The regular season
will begin one week from tonight. They will be in
New York play the Knicks next Wednesday night. The next
Friday night they'll head over to Brooklyn play the Nets,
and then the home opener at the Rocket Arena is
gonna be Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks. I will have

(01:50:53):
more tickets for you tomorrow around three ten and Friday
as well. Our buddy Steve Byrne making his try return
to the show. He's doing the weekend at Hilarities, And
of course he was the headliner for the tenth annual
Alan Cox Show Comedy Tour back in twenty nineteen.

Speaker 2 (01:51:11):
We didn't know that was going to.

Speaker 11 (01:51:12):
Be the last time we would ever do it, but
that was, of course before COVID shut everything down. Did
it over at the Masonic Temple, and of course he
picked up stakes from La moved to Nashville a few
years ago and so always love seeing Steve Burn. So
he'll be in here on Friday afternoon. We'll catch up
with him. And if you're trying to get to the

(01:51:32):
Rush show next fall, September seventeenth is the first of two.
They added that second one on the fifty something tour
over at the Rocket Arena. Rover has got an announcement
for you at seven thirty tomorrow and Friday morning. That's
when he tells you the song of the day. He's
going to tell you when Stansbury will play it, and
what the song is. He tells you the song yeah, yep,

(01:51:53):
and here's when you're gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:51:54):
Hear it yep. Gives you a half an hour wind
can I give them a hint?

Speaker 11 (01:51:58):
Orkd Okay, we'll hear it early in Stansbury's show tomorrow,
so we're over at seven thirty. You'll tell you, hey,
here's the song, here's when Dan's gonna play it, and
then you listen for that and caller ten. You get
passes from the jump for the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame, of course, but you're qualified ticket tickets for
that first Rush show and only five qualifiers this week
with Stansbury, so you got a pretty good shot of

(01:52:21):
doing that. But the band themselves gave us five pair
of tickets, so ten in all that we got a
bread crumb out over the next year because it's a
no comp show, and if you try to buy tickets,
by the way, they're not even The general on sale
is not even until this Friday. They did an artist
pre sale, but those everybody got in line for that,

(01:52:43):
so it might as well have been the regular on sale,
and the apps, you know, scoop them up and then
try to sell you bad seats for seven hundred dollars,
So trying to get into the show with us probably
your best bet. So some I'm thirty tomorrow morning for
that and a well known rush song tomorrow as well

(01:53:04):
a lot of people pointing out that those cloth towel
rollers you don't reuse the role, You don't, Alan, I've
changed hundreds of them. Those rolled towels collect on another
roller in the top of the cabinet, really and then
change out with a fresh, clean roll. They don't come
back around, they go to it. And then I didn't
know that either. Always thought there was just one short

(01:53:27):
roll of cloth towel.

Speaker 2 (01:53:29):
Huh, yeah, well there you go. Where are you in, Alan?

Speaker 11 (01:53:35):
I saw a custodian where I work, cleaning the bathroom,
take the rag, wipe the rim of the urinal and
then go straight to the faucet handles.

Speaker 2 (01:53:45):
Oh wonderful. And those are the things you just don't
want to know. Ignorance is bliss. Yeah, yeah, I'm sure
gross stuff happens all the time. It's just you don't know, Allan.

Speaker 11 (01:53:58):
When I'm at work, I do wash my dong in
the sink, but I also make sure that as little
soap and water touches my hands as possible, so courteous.

Speaker 2 (01:54:07):
You know what.

Speaker 11 (01:54:07):
Not all heroes wear capes. Yeah, as they say that
roll of towels is not reused. My dad owned a bar,
and I had to clean the bathrooms and change those
paper towel rolls.

Speaker 2 (01:54:20):
Got it all?

Speaker 10 (01:54:21):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:54:21):
Yeah, well there you go. Now it is.

Speaker 11 (01:54:23):
You don't see those anymore, right, And this is the
perfect foray into me trying to get the allancoch schow
urinal cakes into a local establishment.

Speaker 2 (01:54:35):
Those new ones smell nice in there, boy, sure do.
Every time I pee, I'm like, oh, oh, it's just
so beautiful. What is that mango soap? Wonderful urine? It's cloying,
but never that's better than what it was before it ever.
Listener driving to Charleston, South Carolina, listening on the iHeartRadio app,

(01:54:56):
thank you appreciate that. If you listen to us from
out of state, tell me where Brian's in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Tony is in Malden, South Carolina. Colleen's down in Sarasota.
Shelby is one of our Beera chiefs in Butte, Montana.
Ryan's in Cordova, Tennessee. That is suburban Memphis. Oh, by

(01:55:17):
the way, I will have that trip to la for
in a few minutes. A couple of people have asked
me we announced our alter Ego festival speaking of big shows.
Alter Ego Festival is happening back at the Kia Forum
in January. This is the biggest show of its kind
all year. Green Day, Cage, The Elephant, twenty one Pilots,
Good Charlotte.

Speaker 11 (01:55:35):
That's for our Michigan listeners, Sublime in a bunch of
other littler bands. But a trip every afternoon this week.
So five o'clock is when you have that keyword. So
just a couple of minutes away on the subject of
we're talking about tron before and all the emerging technologies
and things, and I was reading about you know, everybody's
got their thoughts on AI. We were just having this

(01:55:55):
conversation earlier today off the air about AI and how that,
you know, more and more social media is just becoming
AI slop, and we are getting to the point where
a lot of it is very clearly AI, but it's
getting progressively better, to the point where you're like, well, Jesus,
now I have to double check everything, and how do
you double check it? Because even your search engines now

(01:56:17):
are using AI, and pretty soon, I mean, it's getting
increasingly unavoidable. Sam Altman, who is the guy behind Open Ai,
says that chat GPT, which a lot of people use,
will soon be sexting with verified adults. Rob hot on

(01:56:37):
the heels of you know, the porn sites being subject
to these ID laws. Now, Sam Altman goes, if you're verified,
and how could you possibly get around that, you'll be
able to sext with chat GPT, Because listen, it's no
surprise every emerging technology sees its greatest successes in ornography.

(01:57:01):
If you want wide adoption of any kind of technology,
it becomes porn.

Speaker 2 (01:57:08):
It's rule forty three.

Speaker 11 (01:57:10):
Open Ai will bring erotica to jet GPT once it
rolls out age verification in December.

Speaker 2 (01:57:18):
Uh.

Speaker 11 (01:57:19):
They're one of their principles treat adult users like adults,
so they're some of their developers are creating mature jet Chat.
I don't know why I can't say I would say
jet GPT, chat GPT apps.

Speaker 2 (01:57:35):
Hey, we were talking about it earlier today and I
messed it up too. It is for some reason, it's
a mind.

Speaker 11 (01:57:39):
Yeah, I say jet I transposed the jet GPT the
here's a little uh.

Speaker 21 (01:57:46):
Oh, yes, nothing gets me hotter than your giant cauliflower wart.

Speaker 6 (01:57:54):
A.

Speaker 21 (01:57:54):
Real women probably think you should unalive yourself, but I'm
different I'm already not alive.

Speaker 2 (01:58:01):
Join me, what's the matter?

Speaker 8 (01:58:03):
Baby?

Speaker 2 (01:58:04):
Not feeling well? Try my recipe for cammameal and cyan id.

Speaker 11 (01:58:10):
That's just me this morning, playing around with chat GPT,
rob just jumping on it.

Speaker 2 (01:58:14):
Get myself an AI girlfriend and that. And you heard
it right there.

Speaker 11 (01:58:19):
As quickly as you mentioned a boy, she sent that
recipe for cama mile and cyin I t to my phone.
Come very convenient, so very exciting. I don't use chat
GPT never, but it is.

Speaker 9 (01:58:38):
Uh.

Speaker 11 (01:58:38):
It is part of a lot of things now, and
pretty soon it'll be unavoidable, I guess. But social media
in general is getting way less fun and interesting, not
only just because people screaming at each other, but now

(01:58:59):
all the AI jen rated stuff that is more and
more prevalent on those platforms. Somebody sent me an old
article from the New York Times May seventh, nineteen eighty
three boy strangles in towel roll.

Speaker 2 (01:59:14):
Maybe that's why they got rid of it. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:59:17):
Two roller towel dispensers have been removed from a school
after a first grader became entangled in one and died.
A terrible story a seven year old kid, Lakeview Elementary school.

Speaker 2 (01:59:31):
I don't know where this was.

Speaker 11 (01:59:36):
Officials believe he had been swinging on the towel and
that his death was accidental. Golly, I certainly hope. So
imagine that a seven year old kid in nineteen eighty three.
Simply no way to know what year he was born.
But wow, the towel roll. Nobody ever got accidentally hanged
by a hand dryer, Rob, you make that case, but

(02:00:00):
they got pink eye. Rob's gonna role play with Chet
GPT as a dirty duck farmer.

Speaker 2 (02:00:10):
Hey, Hey, what's going on over there? Okay? And the
immortal words have one Brett Michaels talk dirty to me.
I was so annoyed. I was out. I was grilling
last night. It was doing chicken. I ran inside to
grab my I have a little meat thermometer. Ran inside.

(02:00:30):
That's what you call it. It is the new euphemism.
Come running back outside, and the ducks are going and
right as I can feel that boil beginning to happen.
Just being annoyed to the ducks. I ran out of
gas in my grille and I had used You had
to take your oh you didn't check the oh you
had a backup tight. But it was I had already

(02:00:52):
used it. The backup was used for the outdoor heater thing,
and we had used that over the weekend, so I
didn't have any gas left. So I'd bring the chicken
that was already cooking on the grill into the house
and finish it in the house. And I walked back
outside and I just could keep hearing the ducks, and
I wanted to go have duck for dinner so badly.
It was the first time I had that almost violent

(02:01:14):
part of me with the ducks. You've been going over
there and procuring yourself an animal, no, and just starting something.
I wanted to I wanted to say something, yeah, because
I heard him outside and I'm like, an idiot, You're
an idiot, You're a jericho.

Speaker 11 (02:01:28):
I'm curious why no one from the local contabulary has
been notified that this is a real No one has
has Oh, I think they have noise ordinances and things
like that. I mean people have gotten pinched for way
less than that on noise ordinances wherever they live.

Speaker 2 (02:01:44):
Yeah, but I think it's one of those things like
in our town you can have the stick ex number
of the water fowl. I don't know, dude, it's so
goddamn annoying. Melissa's like, she's like that is it really
annoy you that much? And I was like, do you
not hear it? She's like no, I kind of tune
it out, how like the doors are closed, the windows

(02:02:07):
are closed, everything, and all I hear is that like
someone told that duck the funniest joke of all time.

Speaker 13 (02:02:13):
M h.

Speaker 2 (02:02:14):
And I'm like, I just I don't want to hear anymore.
Golly between those ducks if I wanted to hear ducks
and the Halloween decorations here at work. Two weeks out,
you are going through it. You've had a tough time.

Speaker 4 (02:02:30):
It's been a day, it's been a full twenty four
hours now, and there's still more to come.

Speaker 2 (02:02:37):
Tonight.

Speaker 11 (02:02:38):
Yeah, there's more. There's more, there's more day to live.

Speaker 2 (02:02:41):
And then I got Caitlin coming home for the weekend tomorrow.
She's gonna be inten Mount Union because they have fall
break or something.

Speaker 11 (02:02:50):
Damn fall break. Yeah, right, Like you barely get settled
in and they go on fall break.

Speaker 2 (02:02:56):
And it's just it's like a few days. You know,
you're back on Monday or whatever, and then it's Thanksgiving
and Christmas, so She's like, uh, ducks still their dad?
I said, yes, sweetheart, are they still driving you crazy?
Like you're not even here and you're making my blood boil? Yeah?
But why? I mean, well, she was teasing. No, I
mean she was needling you. That's it. Yeah, okay, I

(02:03:16):
mean again, this is not a surprise to anyone when
they hear me talking about these things.

Speaker 17 (02:03:23):
M hm.

Speaker 2 (02:03:24):
I just I still can't get past the inconsiderate nature
of it. You know, you're brand new do a neighborhood,
and the first thing you do is they are Yeah,
I couldn't remember what after the winner. I mean, the
first thing you think to do is build a goddamn
duck pond in your backyard in a neighborhood where everybody's
sharing a backyard.

Speaker 11 (02:03:41):
Not only that, but you have to infer that they
did it because somehow they find that sound calming or
just wanted to happen or yeah. And again, but I
don't care how much you like duck neighbors.

Speaker 2 (02:03:52):
To be damn screw you all.

Speaker 11 (02:03:54):
We want this, but clearly they're not bothered by it,
and it's right in their backyard. I'm just saying that, like, yeah,
but that's they aren't having nearly the visceral reaction that
you all.

Speaker 2 (02:04:03):
It's in everyone's backyard, that's right, That's why the anger
is there. You know what I mean? If it was
if I lived in a place where everybody has their
own massive amount of space and these people want to
have uh ducks. I don't care what you want to have.
You goats, have goats, do whatever you want. But when
everybody there's no fences, it's a cul de sac, when

(02:04:24):
everyone is basically sharing space. Goddamn ducks the exact opposite.
Like you said last week of Tony Soprano, Tony was
happy to have the ducks. I hate the ducks. I
don't want the ducks.

Speaker 21 (02:04:36):
The goats will be here through Saturday, and they're very friendly.

Speaker 2 (02:04:40):
From the Manateee County Fair.

Speaker 21 (02:04:42):
Linda Carson ABC seven, would you not eat my pants?

Speaker 17 (02:04:45):
Ah?

Speaker 2 (02:04:46):
Oh, Linda Carson got taken down by goats. Yeah, that's
why I'm staying away from the ducks.

Speaker 11 (02:04:50):
Allen, is there any chance that those ducks who are
openly mocking Rob for having run out of pro paine,
is there.

Speaker 2 (02:04:57):
Why they were laughing at me. I didn't even think
of that. Exactly what it was. I think that's silly.
They have no concept of pro pain. There's the guy
that like USA black whack whack.

Speaker 11 (02:05:09):
Yeah, I'm waiting for Rob to yell across the I'm
cooking your cousin next.

Speaker 2 (02:05:15):
No idea, just a wacker that one day I just
made the comment. I think I just said shut up
or something like that. Yeah, no, you're not. If you
were sorry, you wouldn't have ducks dick, and you can't
be the only person yelling enough. I'm not ever. No,
everybody's annoyed. But what do you again? What are you
gonna do? It's my right to hem. Do you have

(02:05:42):
a daisy air rifle? I couldn't do it. I can't.

Speaker 11 (02:05:46):
I can't just not not a kill shot.

Speaker 2 (02:05:49):
It's the tail. And they just keep talking more than
wa ow.

Speaker 11 (02:05:57):
I mean, it wouldn't be able to be traced back
to you. Nobody is going to get the trajectory. I
don't want to hurt an animal, I understand, but you
are another animal being hurt.

Speaker 2 (02:06:09):
Well, that doesn't matter. I'm just a rumpy son of
a bitch. That's really all that is with me. Nobody
cares about me, but I care. I don't I care
about the ducks. It's not the duck's fault. They're just
doing what ducks do. It's the owner's fault. That's right,
it's the idiot that brought him there. Yeah, none you
can do about that.

Speaker 4 (02:06:26):
You can't fix stope, you cannot Who said that?

Speaker 2 (02:06:30):
Yeah, Gigle fakes a lot, can't fake stoop. Which one
was that was that? Abel? Probably he was the hearers here,
but uh, Larry the cable guy was get her done?

Speaker 11 (02:06:44):
Like, let them know. That's the calves much Uh? And
then Jeff Foxworthy, what.

Speaker 2 (02:06:48):
If you have a working television on top of a
non working television?

Speaker 4 (02:06:54):
Nick right, you go to FM the reunions to meet women?

Speaker 2 (02:07:03):
If you ever cut your grass and found a car?

Speaker 11 (02:07:07):
Yeah, he's a funny son of a bitch. Though, boy,
aside from I mean, those are funny too, but they're
kind of they're just they're pithy. But Jeff Foxway here
is a fantastic comedian, very funny. He's not everybody's cup
of tea, but like as a joke writer, and he's great.

Speaker 2 (02:07:22):
Who was the was Engvall?

Speaker 10 (02:07:23):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:07:23):
Run White, Run White? Yeah, run White? I have who
I thought was the funniest of the four of them.

Speaker 11 (02:07:28):
I thought he and fox Worthy, Boy, those guys were.
There is a when I'm coming back from seeing my
kids in Michigan, there is a billboard on the turnpike there.
It's like, you know, ninety goes all the way coming
back ninety east. Just outside Battle Creek, Michigan, there is
an old billboard of Bill Engvall playing a local casino.

(02:07:50):
And I know it's old because it says coming March
twenty eighteen. Like nobody else ever once bought that billboard
space since twenty eight.

Speaker 2 (02:08:00):
Must have been in a real high traffic location. It's
right on the highway, you think, so maybe it got
hung up and like the who owned.

Speaker 11 (02:08:06):
It robs should get a loud bluetooth speaker and play
a YouTube video of dogs barking.

Speaker 2 (02:08:12):
I had a loud YouTube speaker you were playing atall? Yeah?

Speaker 11 (02:08:17):
And by the way, are I mean, are dogs the
natural predator of ducks? I know there's hunting dogs, but
is that something that if ducks are out there barking
or ducks are out there quacking, are the dogs barking
gonna do.

Speaker 2 (02:08:32):
All the time of the No, it just makes them.
But that's what I mean, Like that's not gonna be
a deterrent. Remember the alarm when I sent you that
the car alarm was going off and the ducks were
quacking at the alarm. Yeah, and that was coming from
the same house. The whistle's got.

Speaker 21 (02:08:53):
Press the yellow button to begin enjoying your allen.

Speaker 10 (02:08:56):
What is.

Speaker 13 (02:08:58):
SHOWNWMMS Calves over the pistons here at home last night
they bring them back. Those Calves unveiled their fifty fifth

(02:09:21):
anniversary Classic Edition Navy blue uniforms from Nike one eighteen
one hundred over Detroit last night. Though regular season will
begin in Earnest on Wednesday night in New York against
the Knickerbockers and then in Brooklyn against the Netterbockers on Friday,
and then they'll come back home to play the Milaki

(02:09:43):
Bucks the home opener on the twenty sixth. I'll have
more tickets for you for that game tomorrow and Friday,
the first all fans of the Tenant. Sorry, I'm confusing
my monsters opening night in my Calves the Calves inspired
home opener tip off t shirt It's no coincidence that
spells hot Rob and the rally towel, which spells root.

(02:10:09):
Cass dot Com for all the details, but tickets tomorrow. Alan,
Please tell Rob there is a duck deterrent cost about
twenty dollars and it emits an ultrasonic noise that supposedly
makes it uncomfortable for birds.

Speaker 2 (02:10:23):
It can be found on Amazon. Yeah, but again, it's
not the bird's fault. I can't like.

Speaker 11 (02:10:29):
But you're not gonna but you're not gonna get the
guy to do anything. So in the meantime, maybe save
your sanity buy some non lethal ultrasonic noise. Stay inside, Yeah,
I'll just stay inside. I'll just be up in my
own home.

Speaker 2 (02:10:46):
I always have music on anyway. Yeah, just sit inside
and listen to my music and pretend I don't live
on a farm. All On.

Speaker 11 (02:10:55):
That daisy air rifle idea is really dumb. Rob shoots
those ducks. The bill will just spin around the head
and they'll be fine. They're notoriously hard to kill. Even
dynamite and anvils won't work. Yeah, listen, I saw duck
a muck. It is one of the defining pieces of
entertainment of my entire life. And so I'm picking up

(02:11:15):
what you're laying down. Allan, a coworker, had a family
member who owned a small farm, and he went to
the farm with his cane corso dog.

Speaker 2 (02:11:23):
You've seen those dogs, right, Oh yeah, oh yeah. The
dog ate the heads off of seventeen of their ducks
while everyone was inside the house. See that's not that
doesn't make me happy at all. No, but imagine you've
brought your dog over and you go inside. You're like, ah,
let them run around. He's a gentle giant.

Speaker 11 (02:11:42):
Yes, wouldn't harm a fly, wouldn't harm a fly, but
would eat seventeen duck heads. They're giant dogs, like Italian
masts or something like that. Oh, they're cool, But there's
a lot of people online You're like, yeah, I don't
buy one of these dogs, right, because you know they'll
live for quite a wit and you know they're big dogs.

(02:12:02):
They're like cattle herding dogs, so yeah, they're gonna eat
duck heads.

Speaker 2 (02:12:08):
Someone said, throw a bunch of flaming hot cheetos over
the fence and see what happens. See what happens? Allan.

Speaker 11 (02:12:17):
I suppose rob could build an ubliet and drop one
of the ducks inside, which will then terrify the others
into silence. What a medieval solution it's a it's like
a dungeon, right that with the gate that flops up
and then you throw somebody in there.

Speaker 2 (02:12:33):
Yea, yeah, look at that. Yeah, I'm not gonna do that.

Speaker 11 (02:12:36):
Buffalo Bill call back, he had like a well, right,
a pit or something the basket put. But yeah, maybe
it will terrify all of the other ducks into silence.

Speaker 2 (02:12:49):
Right.

Speaker 11 (02:12:49):
Psychological warfare, Rob is what you got to count on
her on.

Speaker 2 (02:12:54):
Its skin or else it gets the hose again.

Speaker 4 (02:13:00):
You let me gold press charge of that punch.

Speaker 15 (02:13:04):
Now it places the ocean in the basket.

Speaker 2 (02:13:12):
Would be so good, now, the great ted Levine parmea oha.

Speaker 11 (02:13:18):
Would Rob rather fight one hundred duck sized horses or
one horse sized duck?

Speaker 14 (02:13:25):
Rob?

Speaker 10 (02:13:25):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:13:26):
The age old question simple? It's one horse sized ducks.
It's one of anything, right of course. I mean trying
to trying to take out a hundred horse or duck
sized horses, it's impossible. But one big ass duck.

Speaker 11 (02:13:45):
Duck sized horses, Yeah, but you'd really have to get
I mean, if you had a horse sized horse, yeah, oh,
what's it gonna do? Run around, try to evade you,
maybe get a hoof in your face. But a horse
sized duck. It's gonna flap its wings. Yeah, it could
fly or you know, well, it's saying what I would

(02:14:07):
rather fight? Does it say what I have to fight it?

Speaker 10 (02:14:11):
No?

Speaker 2 (02:14:11):
It doesn't have anything about implements. Yeah, I mean, so
you fight the one thing, try to stab it, shoot it. Yeah, whatever,
choke it out works good on a big chicken.

Speaker 11 (02:14:25):
Rob's over there choking a horse. Oh is that what
the kids are calling it?

Speaker 2 (02:14:33):
Alan? Is Rob enjoying the trick or treat station over
there on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 11 (02:14:37):
I'm gonna have to assume that you are. Oh, there's
a I got it, there's a trick or treat station.
I took that literal meaning like, is we have a
trick or treat station? Like a place you go trick
or treating?

Speaker 2 (02:14:47):
Right, Because that's what we're gonna set up outside of
the studio, is a trick or treat station. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (02:14:51):
I gotta get to I really need to make myself
a note to individually wrap those Brussels sprouts.

Speaker 2 (02:14:56):
I already bought some candy. I feel guilty.

Speaker 11 (02:14:59):
They'll candy in the mix, but within the candy will
be the gold wrapped Brussels sprouts. And if all goes well,
They won't realize it until they get home.

Speaker 2 (02:15:11):
Kids come in, trick or treat, trick, get the hell
out of here.

Speaker 11 (02:15:17):
I'm going to make it quite clear that I will
have a candy hierarchy, by the way, and it will
be judged solely by us based on the believability of
their costume. It's never too young to teach a child
how the world works. Yep, sorry, merit alone isn't going
to get it for you. It's got to be talent

(02:15:37):
involved as well.

Speaker 2 (02:15:38):
And I'm cute? What does that mean? Who cares? Got
a cute? Kids? That's not to do with yet? Right?

Speaker 11 (02:15:44):
If an Ogo comes in here in a better costume,
he wins full sized candy bars period. How you like
the dark chocolate and strawberry kitkats limited edition?

Speaker 2 (02:15:53):
Oh you want one?

Speaker 11 (02:15:54):
And you can't have one because these are for closers only.

Speaker 2 (02:15:58):
You wouldn't know what to do with them.

Speaker 4 (02:16:00):
Always be candying, Always be candying, A always B B
C candying, Always be candying.

Speaker 11 (02:16:08):
These are the new candies, and to you they are
gold and you don't get to have them. You wouldn't
know what to do with them. You know what it
takes a trick or treat. It takes brass balls to
trick or treat.

Speaker 2 (02:16:21):
Kid. I rode here tonight on one hundred thousand dollars. Broom. Yeah,
did you have you had those? Speaking of dark chocolate,
have you had the skinny dipped dark chocolate almonds yet?
You mean skinny? They're called skinny dipped. Oh no, I've

(02:16:42):
seen them, but it's done with dark chocolate cocoa. Yeah,
your hands get like fudgie. But it's dude, I've seen them,
but I haven't so good. Really, Oh my god, I'm
it's like my snack now, Okay, get a handful of
those things.

Speaker 4 (02:16:56):
See I eat a lot of nuts twenty nine and
I uh, I'll show you.

Speaker 11 (02:17:03):
This is my uh, this is my prep uh my
meal prep container here that I've rubber band around because
it's chock full of nuts.

Speaker 2 (02:17:12):
It's a heavenly coffee. These are my nuts. Right? Oh wow,
you brought a ton of nuts colapanok, pistachios, chili, lime, cashoes.
There's some almonds in there.

Speaker 11 (02:17:25):
And the wasabi soy almonds from Blue Diamond.

Speaker 14 (02:17:28):
Right.

Speaker 11 (02:17:28):
Also three completely different flavors, three completely different flavors. Wow, However,
I don't care for chocolate.

Speaker 2 (02:17:36):
I don't think that I would eat chocolate almonds. Oh
my god, dude, it's.

Speaker 11 (02:17:40):
Just like I feel like i'm I feel like i'm
it's counterintuitive to why I'm eating nuts. If they're covered
in chocolated thing, that's what's good about them.

Speaker 2 (02:17:49):
Oh you mean like the tip is dipped. No, it's
it's it's the whole thing. It was just dropped in cocoa,
like cocoa powder, so you're not actually like eating a
piece of candy. It just has cocoa powder on the out.
So they're dry dry.

Speaker 11 (02:18:03):
Oh well, that sounds like it's just gonna you're gonna
be coughing all night off.

Speaker 2 (02:18:06):
Enough in throw. No, I'm telling you they are are
I'll try. Um, I've certainly seen them. Oh they're so good.
That's been my new thing. I'll just I'll have like
a handful of those before I go to bed, before
you go to bed. Well, you know, when I'm watching television,
good for you, I'm like a jag off. I'm eating

(02:18:27):
cottage cheese and Kiwi's. This guy's over there eating chocolate
dipped almonds. That's what I'm saying. There's no guilt, I know,
they're called skinny dip down. They grew up Catholic. There's
always guilt, its gilt and everything very fair. Yeah, they're delicious.

Speaker 11 (02:18:44):
Roasted almonds dipped in a thin layer of dark chocolate
with a hint of maple sugar and sea salt.

Speaker 2 (02:18:50):
I didn't see that. Is that what's in them? Well,
that's what it says.

Speaker 11 (02:18:55):
And seventy calories yeah for like a Yeah, starbuck sells
the little packets of Starbucks.

Speaker 2 (02:19:02):
I get them a target, I think, or so.

Speaker 11 (02:19:03):
Yeah, they're too exactly, but the Starbucks website says one
hundred and seventy dollars.

Speaker 2 (02:19:07):
I assume they mean calories. Yes, no, one hundred and seventy.

Speaker 11 (02:19:10):
I'm certainly not going to eat them for one hundred
and seventy dollars.

Speaker 2 (02:19:14):
Blue Diamond makes them too. They're awesome.

Speaker 11 (02:19:16):
This must be like the new thing that everybody's making
thin dipped almonds.

Speaker 2 (02:19:22):
Yeah. I don't know, man, let's see eight almonds is
the serving side.

Speaker 11 (02:19:25):
So are they just leading you down the primrose path
trying to make you feel like you're reading. You know,
for a while everybody was like, oh, air popped chips. Yeah,
but then people go, oh, these aren't so bad for me.
I'll eat an entire bag, which.

Speaker 2 (02:19:38):
Kind of well, then that's the thing, Like you get
a small bag of these nuts, and it's it's you know,
one hundred and forty calories for a serving. Okay, there's
three and a half in a small bag. You know
what I mean? This is about eighteen is the serving size. Well,
I'll try. They're awesome, okay, And in fact, you like
dark chocolates. Another feather in your cap. Indeed, Alan, you

(02:20:00):
guys are talking about Halloween. Does David Lee roth walk
or run when he trick or treats?

Speaker 10 (02:20:06):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:20:06):
That home money?

Speaker 11 (02:20:09):
What kind of maniac runs trick or treating you're supposed
to take in the evening and you're supposed to saunter.
You don't want a bottleneck at old Lady Flacco's house. Alan,
Rob's absolutely right about those almonds. Even better throw them
in the freezer. Oh good call. But then I feel
trust me, this will replace ice cream. But then I

(02:20:30):
feel like, if you do that, though, are they gonna
get like moist? You don't mean they're gonna stick to
your fingers and you get all that chocolate crap on yourself.

Speaker 2 (02:20:39):
I don't know, about the gotta have it moist alan.

Speaker 11 (02:20:45):
I'm covering my nuts in chocolate for my wife for
Sweetest Day.

Speaker 2 (02:20:49):
Well, that is coming up, isn't it. What is that?
Sweetest Day is Saturday?

Speaker 11 (02:20:56):
Oh Rob, we gotta dip our nuts in chocolate for Saturday?

Speaker 2 (02:21:00):
What is sweetest Day?

Speaker 11 (02:21:01):
It's halfway through for it's some made up holiday. They're like, oh,
Valentine's Days February. How can we sell these suckers some
romance crap the other half of the year. And they
figured out, Oh, sweetest Day. It is a Midwestern thing.
It's not everywhere.

Speaker 2 (02:21:17):
Yeah, I never heard.

Speaker 11 (02:21:18):
I don't remember where it started. It's in I thought
it was in New England. It's not everywhere, like it's
big in Florida, big in the Midwest. It's a Hallmark holiday. Yeah, no,
not not when I celebrate. Yeah, and what day is it?

that person's got a good idea.

Speaker 2 (02:22:09):
Alan.

Speaker 11 (02:22:10):
Those chili lime cashews sound erection inducing. Oh they are,
my friend Jerrelyne. I normally get them from Aldi, but
for a while I had mentioned here that I couldn't
find them, and she was lovely and brought me a
couple of bags at one of my recent appearances.

Speaker 2 (02:22:23):
Very nice.

Speaker 11 (02:22:24):
What was the hulapano when you said jalapenno pistachios?

Speaker 2 (02:22:28):
Yes, Sasha, sounds awesome. Pistachios are having a moment, right.

Speaker 11 (02:22:31):
They advertise them, and so when you go to like
in the produce section of the store wherever they sell
the nuts, they've got the they've got the like end
cap for pistachios and they have like barbecue and chili
and one of them, I like the jolopenno.

Speaker 2 (02:22:46):
That sounds great. Yeah. Are they spicy or just taste
like hall of Peno? They are, yeah, spicy like kolapanos.

Speaker 22 (02:22:54):
Ye know, Hi Allen Hi Rob Meghan from Grafton here.
So I'm listening to what we be Yesterday's podcast now,
and you guys doing your Russian accents, which makes me
google every time, And this time I figured out who
you guys remind me of when you do that Grew
from Despicable Me?

Speaker 2 (02:23:13):
Do you guys sound just like him?

Speaker 22 (02:23:15):
I love it?

Speaker 2 (02:23:15):
So keep up the good work. Thank you, love you,
hate me, hate the show. So she really likes Despicable Me.
I wish she's telling us our Russian accents suck. Well
they do, because that's not what It's not what gru
was going for it. No, I have to practice that one.
It's more like it's more like Transylvanian or something. Yeah,

(02:23:39):
CRUs like he's got like that, you know, he's got
like a weird sound. It's not not what we are doing.
You know, What's what's Grew's backstory? I don't remember. I
have been years since we watched one of those movies.

Speaker 11 (02:23:55):
The animator created him and envisioned him as a Dracula
like character. So yeah, Quasi why was I Russian?

Speaker 2 (02:24:04):
Is how they described the There you go? Maybe that's
we're not too far off. Yeah, and I never even
like my my that impression is the same of any
where geographically that that's somewhat near Russia. That's the voice
that I do all. It does not mean that I
will do this for anything exactly.

Speaker 19 (02:24:25):
A hillo eyes so many Hungarians?

Speaker 2 (02:24:31):
Does it?

Speaker 4 (02:24:32):
Meat paprika, meat, meat paprika, poppy cush How many chocolate almonds?

Speaker 2 (02:24:42):
How many in the start of size eighteen?

Speaker 19 (02:24:45):
You can only have eighteen of them before it becomes problematic.

Speaker 4 (02:24:48):
And you get the big fat ass you get thrown
into obli.

Speaker 2 (02:24:54):
All right, well, good, there you go.

Speaker 11 (02:24:57):
Almost chili lime cashoes are inferior to the hot honey
cashoes at all. These I don't care for honey cashoes.
They're inconsistent planters. I think still you gotta go with
the og planters. I think Still makes the best honey cashoes.
It's just they're tough to find. I don't know how
popular they are, so it's hard to find them in
a grocery store. And everybody else kind of has their

(02:25:19):
variations on them, but there's with different results. I'm not
a big honey cashew guy. I'll still get going on
some honey roasted peanuts. That flavor of peanut is just fantastic.
One of my favorites. Alan Sweetest Day born in Cleveland, Ohio.

Speaker 2 (02:25:38):
I did know that.

Speaker 11 (02:25:39):
I think American Greetings did it right, or whoever was
making the the they call the Hallmark holiday, but it
was the Cleveland Plain Dealer in nineteen twenty two chronicled
the first Sweetest Day in Cleveland. Listen, when you think Cleveland,
you think sweetest Day. Yeah, candy maker Cec Heartzell in

(02:26:02):
twelve Cleveland Committee men. So yeah, born in Cleveland, Ohio,
the third Saturday in October October, So congratulations. You know
we were talking to Woody earlier. Wood He was like,
I'll tell you what if the Patriots and the Steelers

(02:26:23):
end up in the Super Bowl, you and Rob are
going to be doing accents non stop. Yeah, you in suck.
So listen, fingers crossed. You know, our friend Steve Byrne
is doing the weekend at Hilarities. He'll join us on Friday.
He's from Pittsburgh and so he's a huge Penguins fan

(02:26:44):
and all those and doesn't have the accent, but you
can surely chop it up with him. He would love
nothing more than to see the Steelers in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (02:26:53):
I'm not sure you're going to see either one of
those teams in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 4 (02:26:55):
So I think you're probably I think that that is
an accent battle that we're probably going to.

Speaker 2 (02:27:01):
We can just do and miss out on. Yo, just
do it to make people happy. But Allen, I've never
had a pistachio or a cashew. Am I weird? Yes?

Speaker 4 (02:27:11):
Yes, I've gotta take a break three five two if
you want to send a text.

Speaker 7 (02:27:17):
Eight Alan Cox Show on.

Speaker 8 (02:27:19):
One WMMS, The Allen Cox Show.

Speaker 2 (02:27:24):
I've been listening to that Horses of yours.

Speaker 5 (02:27:26):
For months and you can take that crap and blow
it out your ass, and for good.

Speaker 2 (02:27:32):
Measure, just call the Alan Cox Show.

Speaker 5 (02:27:34):
Two one six five seven eight one double oh seven
or one eight three four eight one double oh seven.

Speaker 2 (02:27:51):
We played this last Saturday night. We were one of
the Pat Butler picks.

Speaker 11 (02:27:55):
Anthrax cover in Rush's Anthem off a fly by Night,
great version of his song. Anthrax did a covers album
about ten or so years ago called Anthems, and the
opening track was Anthem by Rush.

Speaker 4 (02:28:10):
They did TNT. They did Smoking by Boston, that was
real good.

Speaker 11 (02:28:14):
They did jail Break, one of our favorite songs.

Speaker 2 (02:28:18):
A song and.

Speaker 11 (02:28:19):
Anyway, if you're trying to get yourself too Rush proper.

Speaker 2 (02:28:24):
I don't know that they do Anthem live.

Speaker 11 (02:28:27):
I have to think that maybe they'll because they haven't
toured in some time and people are excited to see them,
that maybe they'll pull out a couple of rarities By
Tour and the snow Dog. That's something along those lines,
because somebody asked them when we were at the rock
Hall thing with Getty Lee and Alex License, somebody they
took a couple of audience questions and didn't somebody ask like,

(02:28:49):
what is the most what's the song that you play
that is the hardest to remember or something like that. Yeah,
the one that you have to really make sure you
rehearse because you've forgotten how to play it and it's
a little complic I think Alex was talking about Bytour
and the snow Dog, right, didn't they allude to that.
He's like, yeah, because we really have to he goes
it takes a while and then the muscle memory kicks in.

Speaker 2 (02:29:09):
But that was funny because he was like it took
him like they started playing those Rush songs again, and
the way they described it like what you see in
the video, like that's a very shortened version of a
very long conversation. And they were talking about being at
Getty's house and just dicking around and just playing stuff,
and they had not played a rush song in years,

(02:29:30):
like not notes of a rush song. They would just
goof around and play different things. They'd play covers or whatever,
get into a groove and just play, and Alex started
playing something and they started playing rush songs again. And
that's what made them want to go back out and
do this because they're like, oh my god, it's fun
to play those songs. It's fun to do this. And

(02:29:50):
then Alex is like, when I actually had to think
about how to play the Spirit of Radio or to
play name it, he's like, the first five, six, seven,
eight times my message, and nothing doesn't feel right. He
said in By the twentieth time you play in something,
muscle memory kicks back in. He's like, in your hand
goes to this middle part of the fret and you're like, oh,

(02:30:10):
that's right. I did that because it's way easier to
play that note here. Yeah, and he's like, and you
just start to do it. It's back, he's like, and
then you like, nothing, you don't even think about it.
And that's that's what always amazes me the most about
those guys. When you're that prolific at something, you know,
like an Alex LIFs and a guitar. It just that
you don't even think like you're literally you could be
doing anything else. You can do a math in a

(02:30:32):
sadoku and playing guitar and it's just happening. Yeah, it's wild.

Speaker 11 (02:30:36):
Well, it's like Neil Pert, you know, in the late nineties,
a lot of tragedy, right, his daughter and his wife.
I don't know if he was married. It was it
was his daughter's mom. They've been together forever, but I
don't know if they were actually married. His wife and
his daughter both die within a year of each other. Right,
His daughter's a teenager. She gets killed in a car crash.

(02:30:57):
Then his wife died. I think they one of those
like oroken Heart situation. She had cancer. So his first
wife and his daughter die within a year. He doesn't
touch the drums for five years, remember that. Yeah, he
just I think he did a documentary or a book
about it or something. And obviously he's the primary lyricist
for the band, and he's a very thoughtful guy. But
he was like at his wife's funerals, they consider me retired.

(02:31:19):
And that was only nineties. So for me, I'm kind
of like, boy, imagine you're that guy and you don't
touch the drug. He just got in his motorcycle and
starts rhyding through Canada in the United States, I'm like,
you don't touch the drums for five years when you're
Neil Pert. I mean, he came back, obviously met somebody
else and they had a child, you know, but even
as recently as ten years ago, he was like, I'm

(02:31:41):
kind of tired of.

Speaker 2 (02:31:41):
Playing the drums. I think it's funny. They released a
like a little mini video Neil Peart's family because people
were giving Alex and Getti a lot of crap about
doing this without him, and the family's like, look when
they said they had our blessing, have our less.

Speaker 11 (02:32:01):
Yeah, they made it a point to say that, because
were they there, because it looked like Eddy was looking
out into the audience.

Speaker 2 (02:32:06):
It did, but I don't I don't know if they were.
They didn't tell anyone that they were okay, And then
he said, like in this video, they're like, look, they're
not trying to replace our dad, our husband, you can't.
They are literally going out on the road to honor him.
This is something they've wanted to do for a long time,

(02:32:27):
but didn't feel like they were ready to. Now they
are and they're going to do it, and we love
it and we bless it, and we want them to
be as successful as they ever were. They're not trying
to be Rush two point zero and they said that
twenty times.

Speaker 11 (02:32:38):
Not only that, but Neil Pert's family, I have to assume,
are very very close with the Lee and license for sure.
So it's like they'd be excited to see those songs
played again. Well, and you know they're also going to
get a huge taste of this thing. I mean that's
all his stuff, Yeah, owns all those songs. Oh yeah,
I hadn't thought about that.

Speaker 2 (02:32:58):
Yeah, I mean that of course there's going to be
a huge financial component for that family. Alan.

Speaker 11 (02:33:04):
There's a shop in Parma Heights, Jake and Parma called
a Taste of Transylvania, and it's a European grocery store.

Speaker 2 (02:33:17):
Just sell blood.

Speaker 19 (02:33:21):
We sell all kinds of sausage, blood sausage and blood sausage,
and we sell blood capsules and blood sausages.

Speaker 2 (02:33:28):
Well much for your ruben sentiments side of beef with
extra blow though. Blood good from Transylvania blood.

Speaker 4 (02:33:38):
Do you have Romanian noodles? And looking for the particular
candies from home? They are large eminems filled with pork.
Do you have candice skinless sausages?

Speaker 2 (02:33:58):
Would you like those cooked or uncooked? I love it
tastes of Transylvania.

Speaker 11 (02:34:02):
Yeah, well, listen, you're not gonna go broke with a
stor like that in Parma Heights, that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (02:34:09):
Alan.

Speaker 11 (02:34:10):
I love Finn Lizzie and I love that song jail Break.
I especially love the line tonight there's gonna be a
jail break somewhere in this town.

Speaker 2 (02:34:17):
My guess it'll happen at the jail which one.

Speaker 11 (02:34:21):
Yeah, well, listen, there's a lot of incarcerated people in
Dublin and uh, you know that's called artistic license.

Speaker 2 (02:34:30):
I'm gonna have to check this place out, man. I've
been looking for a place that had good kilbasa mm hmm,
and uh, I think I might just found it.

Speaker 19 (02:34:39):
Some daisy hams, oh yeah, at least Tensylvania daisy hams
are delicious.

Speaker 2 (02:34:46):
We have all type of things on shilf.

Speaker 19 (02:34:48):
If you look over here, we have the olives in
the red cabbage and olives the daisy Ham is one
of the more difficult moves to.

Speaker 2 (02:34:59):
Do on urban Really you ever try to do daisy ham,
it is very hard to do open open faced daisy
ham is hardest move in all of six.

Speaker 4 (02:35:10):
It requires four glazed doughnuts, an industrial drain plunger, and
a level lamp in the crucifix. I cannot tell you
where to put lava lamp. You can guess, you can guess.
I love this line.

Speaker 2 (02:35:29):
There's also a butcher shop that carries a variety of meats, sausage,
pork pork chops, bacon, pork butt, chump, lots of pork pork,
pork butt, skinless sausage that are prepared daily. This place
sounds fantastic. Located at six to sevel run Permau.

Speaker 4 (02:35:51):
There are few things more painful in young men's life
than skinless sausage. If it ever happened to you on hand,
called eggle down below terrible heapen till.

Speaker 2 (02:36:04):
My cousin one time. It happens when you are your
young man young teenage years, you spend too much time
cranking get skinless sausage.

Speaker 4 (02:36:12):
My friend was working in stables at Glenn Penance House,
had unfortunate incident with barbed wire face. They had to
rename the cowell Old one eye pulled the skin right
off the sausage, his one eye dangling in the wind.

(02:36:33):
All right, that's fun, huh.

Speaker 2 (02:36:35):
It is fun. Taste of Transylvania. I'm gonna have to
check it. I'm going to have to check this without question.
I've been looking for this type of market here, so
I'm ready.

Speaker 11 (02:36:43):
Now, promise me that you will record and document your
trip there and do that when you walk in when
I walk in, Yes.

Speaker 2 (02:36:50):
But you know what, you never know if someone's putting
it on or not. If I just walked in to
talk like that, they would. They don't know me. They
assume that's how I talk. I'll do that with my
kids sometimes I'll start talking in a weird accent if
I'm somewhere because no one's ever seen me before. Yeah,
so I'll just start talking like something and everybody, the
kids are laughing, but the people don't know.

Speaker 11 (02:37:07):
I was watching a show with my daughter the other night.
It's called High Potential. If you watched that, it's over
on ABC. It's yeah, Kaitlin Olson.

Speaker 2 (02:37:16):
You don't like it.

Speaker 11 (02:37:16):
It's so poorly written and so like I like that dramatic.
I mean, the premise is interesting and it's fun enough,
and she likes it. And yeah, but there was a
the culmination of this one particular episode. It's all you
know what, crime procedural, it's all nicely sewn up. That
guy gets caught and there arrest this girl. And I

(02:37:37):
said to my daughter, I go, it's not so bad.
I said, you know, she'll get a year for manslaughter.
Sho'll be out in three months. And she thought that
was high hilarious that I was working on the incarceration
schedule for a fake character in a TV show. It's like,
how would you possibly arrive at that? Huh, that's probably
what will happen. And then I said, you can't spell

(02:37:58):
manslaughter without laughter. And of course that center for the roof.
So it was a big night as far as eliciting
giggles from a nine year old goes pulled it off,
pulled it off, pulled it right off.

Speaker 2 (02:38:13):
Like skinless sausage.

Speaker 19 (02:38:17):
He came right off right the same mind giggles through
the roof. And just like skinless sausage, when you play
with it too much, it is easy to take the
skin off of the sausage.

Speaker 2 (02:38:29):
You kill the it's nice.

Speaker 11 (02:38:34):
Yeah, four hundred What did I see? Four hundred million
computers become obsolete today because there will no longer be
support for Windows ten. I guess there are still computers
operating a Windows ten.

Speaker 2 (02:38:51):
Maybe we have them here. I feel like some of
our servers here were on ten. Aren't they?

Speaker 11 (02:38:55):
Microsoft no longer supporting Windows ten. You can update the
Windows eleven, or you can opt into the security updates
for another year, but they've officially ended support for Windows ten.
I found that out who else ended their support? I
think Google divested themselves of Nest. You know, I have

(02:39:16):
like a I had a Nest thermostat in my home,
and I had a couple of things that were like, yeah,
we're not supporting these anymore. So it's like they still work,
but you can't. There's no like functionality with them anymore
as far as like apps go and things like that.
So they were offering people suggestions as to what they
could replace it with.

Speaker 2 (02:39:36):
I'm like, oh, that's fun.

Speaker 11 (02:39:37):
And that's what sucks about all this tech is that
these companies buy and sell other companies so frequently that
you might buy their product and then the next week
you're like, oh, you're just like out in the cold
because it's not a company anymore.

Speaker 2 (02:39:51):
You bought their.

Speaker 11 (02:39:51):
Crap and it works, like oh yeah, we don't own
that anymore. Oh great, Like I think Amazon owns Ring
but then it didn't and then so they're like, oh yeah,
we don't do that anymore. Okay, great, I've got it.
You know, install these things in my home and now
there's no functionality for him.

Speaker 2 (02:40:06):
I have a Ring camera on the back of the house,
and I have a Google whatever the nest you said,
I have the nest in the for my doorbell. So
I was talking to Melisia to day. I'm like, I
just want to get more cameras and just switch to
one platform because I'm paying both of both companies to
have the recording and and I'm like, just I'm gonna
get one thing and I don't know what that's going
to be yet, but I'm just gonna switch everything over

(02:40:27):
to one.

Speaker 11 (02:40:29):
Well, there's a company called UFI that I guess is
pretty good, except people are like, oh, it's got it's
prone to I don't know, Chinese malware something. I'm like, hey,
if the Chinese want to look outside on my front porch.

Speaker 2 (02:40:43):
Fine, and they already have what are they going to
find my information? Yeah? I fell for that stupid thing
on Instagram where I'm like, oh yeah, i'll make myself
look old. Here's my face. Oh yeah, what was your
mom's maiden name? I don't know. Here you go social,
there's the last four I'm not gonna get caught.

Speaker 11 (02:41:00):
And everybody's desperate to stay young, but they want to
see what they'll look like should they live long enough
to become elderly. Right, and they're like, it's Chinese. They're
testing facial recognition software on you. Yeah, you're like, yeah,
but I gave my consent.

Speaker 2 (02:41:13):
But I look awesome as an old man.

Speaker 7 (02:41:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (02:41:15):
I don't do that stuff. I did not because I
get way people do it. I mean, I think it's
it's harmless fun. And for people who are like, oh
I don't want them having my info, they have your
info ten years ago.

Speaker 2 (02:41:26):
Of course I don't know what you're talking about. That's
why I don't stress any of this stuff.

Speaker 12 (02:41:30):
Man.

Speaker 2 (02:41:30):
When people start getting all up in arms about things
and oh they're gonna do this, they're gonna do that. Uh,
they're gonna make us show our IDs to get onto
a ports. I don't care.

Speaker 11 (02:41:37):
About well, if I understand, I mean, I think there's
a difference between in theory and in practice. And in theory, yeah,
everybody should be really worried about security breaches. In practice,
it's so frequent that what are you gonna do? It's
whack a mole. But it's why I pay for LifeLock. Yeah,

(02:41:58):
there's no endorsement on that one. Boy, that's that.

Speaker 10 (02:42:00):
I know that.

Speaker 2 (02:42:02):
Yeah, and I because the company offers it now, so
I bought it through the benefits and that's like, that's
the only way I can sleep at night, Like, I
know my stuff is out there. But at the same time,
you can't bleed a stone somebody gets into my accompany.
What am I gonna steal this guy's death?

Speaker 11 (02:42:16):
Yeah, he only keeps saying Neil Pert, but it's pronounced Pearte.
Oh he must have been pronouncing his own name wrong.

Speaker 2 (02:42:25):
Rob wants good COLEBASI go to Jaworski Meets. See somebody

State road meets is a little bit further up state road.

You go into Parma gun shop. Right then you load up,
strap up, and then a little bit further up. This
is if you're going north, you're going south, you gotta

(02:44:49):
be careful for you get to uh, you gotta be
careful before you get down to Pleasant Valley. But if
you're going north, you strap up at Parma gun Shop.
Then you get a little further up into Royal Donut, right,
grab a couple of bare claws, and then you get
into State Meats. You put them all together and you
ask them if they can fill and donut with some
of the meats.

Speaker 4 (02:45:09):
Who knew the pulpe was this familiar with Parma. I
can't keep my accent straight.

Speaker 2 (02:45:14):
I love it. Oh, look at this. They give all
your different smoke kill bossa. They got chunky, they got
ground shovel smoke like mine, creamy. No, you know you
ever had the chunky kill Bossa. It's the big pieces
of meat inside of the the whatever you call it.

State and Pleasant Valley.

Speaker 2 (02:45:37):

I'm putting the P in the V. Yeah, they don't
care for that either. But listen, a little Parma humor.

There's a little Barma humor. Fine European foods. Oh, I
can't hymen It these places are open late. I'm heading
there on my way. Oh man, you're popping a real
skinless sausage. I they're closed, damnit yink. They close it
seven o'clock Tomorrowrow.

Speaker 11 (02:46:09):

and dip into the Vishnu temple. Man, that's more arms
to hold all of my PV market buys.

Big Brother is watching you.
