And that's right, we gave you the platform. Everybody good today,

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Yeah, it's froggers. Oh my god, almighty. Well I doubled
up today, man, I got I got fat guy. Uh,
I have fat Guy ordered today? Who do you think

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Myers?

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Or Oh that's a good one. Ross's order.

Speaker 4 (01:53):
It's got to be Ross's.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
I think it's got because everything in that in that
hotel sheet pan of food that you got. I'm so
was deep fried. Deep You took vegetables that would normally
be good for you and then deep fried them to
make them mad for you.

Speaker 5 (02:07):
You ever remember going to a restaurant You look at
the appetizer section say I like that, but I also
like this, And then some genius somewhere along the way
come up came up with the idea of we'll do
a sample, the platter, appetizer, ultimate platter, sampler.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
That's where we need to thank the stoners of the world.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
And Ross ordered that today, the entire platter. I am
so embarrassed. Cheese sticks, plantains.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Haven't talked to you guys in a couple of weeks
lit a tin of corn down and this is what
I get. And rightfully so, I am so embarrassed. I
cannot believe it came in not a to go container.
It came in like something that you would order like,
I don't know how to wedding.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
It's a catering container.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
It is.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
It's a catering tin full of fried little nip tidbits. Yeah,
how are you budding? How is your Christmas? How is
your New Year's? We yet we have yet to you
and I have spoken a number of times all about
stand up. We haven't said one thing about how your
holiday was, how Christmas was, how New Year's was.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Nothing, nobody knows. Christmas was phenomenal. Yeah, to be honest,
it was fantastic. It was special having a one year
old Christmas morning.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
I was gonna say because although Myles was around last Christmas,
he was only a few months old and really, you know,
not walking and really kind of cognitive to what was
going on. But this year, dude, he was rolling around
eighteen months old or so and letting it rip.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
I'm with you in the statement of saying that, like
the first four months barely counts, like they are more
of a house plant than an actual human being.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
That's absolutely right.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
You got a water missure that he gets some sunlight.
But as a with a one year old special, everything special.
Oh yeah, just right, And not even with Christmas, not
even due to Christmas, it's just him being that age
of learning every yeah, other five minutes.

Speaker 3 (03:57):
You make a very good point there. Truthfully, even at
eighteen months, you're not gonna remember it because you don't
remember stuff when you were eighteen months old. No, really,
all of those things are for you, guys. But I
have to tell you you guys documented it quite well
because I was following your social feeds while we were
on the break, and man, every other time I would
log on, it was another unbelievably cute, fake looking AI

(04:18):
picture of your son having another great life experience from
the onset. Do you know about the cow? I do not.
Oh yeah, the blow up cow that he freaked out
about that you end up getting bored.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
So I bought him a six foot inflatable cow because
he saw one at a bar.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
I was there as well. I'm not sure that makes
it better.

Speaker 6 (04:37):
Wrong.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
So did you just meet him there or did you
take him there?

Speaker 7 (04:39):
No?

Speaker 1 (04:39):
I met him there.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
I told him not to drive home either.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
But here we are. But he saw it's a lunch
spot and it's a bar that no one is there.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
It's not I shouldn't even call it a bar.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
It's more of a food house than anything. Right, And
there's it's in the milk district. So there's a six
foot inflatable cow. He saw it, fell in love. Bought
that Amazon forty bones just so he could wake up
and hear the small, perpetual hum of a fan blowing
up inflatable cow.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
It was awesome, very cool. Could not recommend it enough.
Very nice. How about New Years? What'd you guys do
for New Year's?

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Slept sid eleven twenty eight. Really I really felt all
of the full the full parenteam on that on that
New Year's Yeah, I remember, I remember when I used
to care about this damn countdown, and now I'm like,
how's he sleeping through this?

Speaker 3 (05:29):
Yeah? A lot of fireworks out there by your.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
Side of town quite known to have the most fireworks
I think you can legally have in a neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
Well, it's good to have you back, dog. You'll go
to see you and glad you're here. So you guys
ready to rip it? We are? We Look, we just
had a promotions being like before the show about all
the events were doing this year. We're adding a bunch
of new stuff. Yeah, we're ripping it. I mean, uh,
there you go, Jack, adding a bunch of new stuff.
Gonna change up trivia here in a couple of weeks.
It's gonna be kind of different. Some more variety for
the trivia game, more out, more things out and around,

(06:01):
some more listener engage things here at the building, like, uh,
you know, listener appreciation, you know, broadcast and stuff like
that's gonna be fun.

Speaker 5 (06:08):
We're doing a thing called reverse trivia where Jim still
asks the questions, but you give us prizes, right exactly.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
It's our favorite one Christmas. Uh yeah, I just do
you guys, Jim, do you remember kicking it with a
one year old around Christmas and they're just essentially walking
around tripping balls?

Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yeah? Yeah, I mean really, to be honest, with the
years that I started, really, I mean when they're like two, three, four,
you know, and they're that's when the years get kind
of well, you know, they're gonna remember some of that stuff.
Like I can barely remember Christmas is from when I was,
you know, below ten years old, and.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
I'm so happy I didn't ruin it like last year's Christmas.
I got too drunk last Christmas?

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Oh you remember?

Speaker 8 (06:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (06:45):
Yeah, because we play that every year in the best stuff.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Definitely got too drunk. That's one hundred percent true. Really,
wish I wasn't on record more than one time. But
here we are the.

Speaker 5 (06:55):
Last two weeks of every calendar year here on Real
Radio in the afternoon in from three to seven pm.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
You can hear Ross's low lights.

Speaker 5 (07:06):
Everything we've documented are things where I don't think I
should have said that.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
That's right, baby, my low lights made best of Yeah yeah,
but uh. Having Christmas, getting the I got a switch
to from my brother. I bought my brother a video
game console years ago. He bought me a switch and
that was like an odd sentimental thing because video games
is such a strong connection with my brother and I
and having him buy me account a console.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
Dude, he's coming, Dude, your man has coming hot with
some great gifts over the last three or four years.
He also got you those irons, did he not? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (07:38):
He threw down. He always starts the movement. He's like
the guy who starts the in family. Go fund me.
Yeah yeah, yeah, it's the go fund Ross. Yeah yeah,
Let's get him one big gift.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Very nice man, that's a that's quite the hookup.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Is the is the game?

Speaker 3 (07:52):
Fun? Is the is the console book?

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Oh god? He just said is the game? I changed
it to console? Yeah, but you bought it too late?
You still maybe I caught it too late.

Speaker 9 (08:01):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
By the way, you being here on Fridays now it
means that you gonna be here during eat bit update,
which is awesome.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
For the record, I am all about right now. I'm

Speaker 3 (08:11):
Very nice. Get min ninten do back on all right
four our seven nine one six one four one text
us at seven seven zero three one. Like I said
at the top of the show, we are stacked up
today normal Thursday. As we kind of move into twenty
twenty six, I wanted to ask you guys something because
I found out mine today and I don't know why. Cholesterol. No,
I'm guessing you a five eight. It's a hot one, buddy.

(08:33):
I don't know how good it is or bad it is,
but it's not. I don't think it's super solid.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
His power levels three thousand.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
But a lot of that cholesterol stuff is genetic, is
it not. That's what I've heard, because my wife is skinny,
af like, she is under her weight, and she has
high cholesterol because of genetics, and she eats like a
she eats like a bird. She does she has a
great diet, doesn't drink much, doesn't smoke or anything like that,
exercises regularly, high cholesterol.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
And then you tell me you got it lower than hers.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
More than hers. That's sick. Yeah it is. And I
just polished off like forty five boneless wings and the
cheese takes up. I'm doing you, and I'm still in
better shape.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
I know we jumped on Ross for his getting the
appetizer Ultimate platter, but Jim actually ordered two lunches today.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
I didn't order two lunches both I did. I was
so hungry. Man. Though forestry is so good, we appreciate it.
Sometimes you gotta go straight King Kong over at Frogs.
Oh yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
And if that means boneless wings in a Philly cheese,
that's it.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
Call me your gorilla. Put one on top of the other.

Speaker 10 (09:31):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
Pretty good? Wait? Oh my god, dude, you are going
to trip. Have you heard about it? Ross?

Speaker 1 (09:48):
No?

Speaker 3 (09:48):
Yeah? Go check out The Beast in Me on Netflix.
Claar Danes amazing performances, Dude, she is amazing. Matthew Rice, Yeah, Mace, Yeah,
Matthew Reese, the guy from the American and uh, I
was the other guy. Still don't remember his name. You've
seen one hundred times as a bad guy in the movies.
He's in it as well. He was in Breaking Bad Joe.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Oh yeah, Jonathan Banks. Yeah, Jonathan Yeah, good Joe.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
You'll like it. So what what I were what I
realized today, and we talked about this a little bit yesterday,
is I was trying to figure out my least favorite
household chore. Oh, my least favorite household chore text message.
It used to be that's on the household chore, jackass,
Well you do it. That's you're at your house. It's
a chore. It used to be. It used to be

(10:30):
folding clothes. I used to hate folding clothes, and I'm
still not a gigantic fan of it. But this morning,
or yesterday, yesterday morning, because I had to do this
because I promised my wife I would, I realized what
I hate doing more than anything in my house. And
it doesn't make any sense because it's not that hard.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
Loading the dishwasher, unloading the dishwasher.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
I hate unloading the dishwasher. I hate it. Oh I
like it. I told my wife I would clean the
entire kitchen, including loading the dishwasher, handwashing, whatever, wiping on
the stove. If you just simply unloaded for me, I
will do everything else. That's how much I loathe it.
And I can't tell you why.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
I'll take that over laundry any day.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
I love. Laundry is a piece of cake. Laundring is
a piece of cake. I actually like voling clean. Yeah,
you just stack it up, put it away. But man,
I hate that.

Speaker 5 (11:24):
The benefit of when you unload the dishwasher, this stuff
goes in the right place.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Well, well that starts the problem there, Dack, because that's
in the eye of the beholder. You're gonna into a
civil war in my kitchen with that.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
I was about to save you that you've already drawn
this line in the sand or somebody in your house
as what movie are you on?

Speaker 11 (11:52):
Man?

Speaker 1 (11:53):
What I'm in the movie?

Speaker 3 (11:55):
I'm the movie. I'm the King of the castle. How
about you.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
Cleaning toilets?

Speaker 3 (12:01):
Cleaning toilets hate. I don't mind that. For some reason,
I just take my hair, my back brush and no.
I for some reason, I don't that. None of the
cleaning stuff, like even windows and stuff like that. Like
one of my favorite things is vacuuming because for me,
I don't know about you guys. Like I get to
see the results. The carpet looks better. You can hear
the stuff going into the vacuum cleaner. You know you're

(12:22):
making a difference. You leave the nice marks, You line
it up so it looks all Yeah, you can cross
thatches so it looks like a soccer pitch.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
I mean it's not. It's a little too weird to
be passionate about vacuuming. I vacuum every day and I
love it. Yeah. No, but I gave up on that
because I got a son and he loves hitting the
robot vacuum button. Does it really yeah?

Speaker 3 (12:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (12:44):
And then we don't trust it, you know, I don't.
I don't want any robots next to my baby. But
I like that. I got a vacuum, so we got
one that you get to see the stuff going in. Man,
what monsters everybody was but their bags. And I say
monsters because they robbed you of the life fulfillment of
seeing the dirt collect in the canist.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
Dyson or something like that. Yeah, I got a knockoff Dyson.
I got a Pison where you get that hair nado
going in there.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
All right, welcome back to the Jim Golber Show. I'm
Jim Jacket. Ross are right over there and Deb has
your news.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Good time for JCS news.

Speaker 13 (15:27):
Wow, this guy got to put his name on everything.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
It's in my contract Edre's the news on the Jim
Colber Show.

Speaker 7 (15:33):
And JCS News is brought to you by that mortgage guy.
Don Before we get to the national story, did want
to let you know that Lake Brantley High School which
was under lockdown on a code read after a tip
was received stating there was a possible threat. That's been
proven to be a hoax. So now the liftdown, the
lockdown rather has been lifted, but they are doing a
controlled dismissal. So if you're waiting to pick your kids

(15:55):
up from school, pack your patients.

Speaker 3 (15:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (15:57):
Yeah, it's back to heavy traffic and delays in the area.
Minnesota's governor says his state officials must be involved in
the investigation into the ice involved shooting death in Minneapolis.
Democrat Governor Tim Walt says the FBI has blocked the
Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension from joining the investigation into
the deadly shooting that ended in the death of Renee

(16:18):
Nicole Good.

Speaker 11 (16:19):
The only way we find the answers is a thorough
investigation by non partisan professionals.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
Well says.

Speaker 7 (16:27):
The Trump administration has already made up its mind that
Good was at fault without getting all of the facts,
which amounts to an abuse of power. The FBI is
now in sole charge of the case, which would hinder
Minnesota from bringing any charges should it chooses.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
They actually refuse to give them any evidence or any
of the other information they have today. I just read
that right before we came on there. They literally refuse
to give them any information they have.

Speaker 4 (16:49):
You yep, nod, you investigate it just.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
To find out what went on. You won't even let
them do.

Speaker 4 (16:53):
That, exactly.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
Yeah. Interesting.

Speaker 7 (16:55):
NASA is considering bringing the crew of the International Space
Station home a little early because of a medical issue
on board. The agency didn't say which astronaut or what
the issue was. Of course, we have hippo laws, only
that the situation is quote stable. Their crew consists of
two Americans, one Japanese astronaut, and a Russian cosmonaut. They
arrived in early August for a planned six month mission,

(17:18):
and update is expected within the next twenty four hours.
There had been a couple of spacewalks that they were
planning to do a news conference about, and then had
to cancel those spacewalks when it became evident that the
astronaut is ill.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
So they're almost near the end of their mission anyway, Yes.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
Yeah, exactly, but still unprecedented.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Yeah, it's wild. I've not heard of that before.

Speaker 4 (17:39):
No, not for a medical issue.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
Do you think when they pull them down out of
that capitalry, like you guys say in this or improl minut,
we're going to watch this porthole and see what happened.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Do you think the doctor told them, like, you know,
just stay inside for a little bit.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
Ye, you're gonna watch. We're gonna watch you guys from afar.
You don't want to go outside. You need rest.

Speaker 7 (17:54):
A man who was photographed carrying former House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi's lectern during the January six Capitol riode is now
running from a county commissioned seat in Florida. Adam Johnson
filed his paperwork as campaign paperwork in Manatee County this
week on the five year anniversary of the attack. He
was later sentenced to seventy five days in jail after

(18:14):
pleading guilty to a federal misdemeanor. Johnson, who was among
those later pardoned by President Trump, joins a crowded Republican
primary field for the District six at large seats. All right, ah,
this next story makes me so so mad.

Speaker 3 (18:29):
Oh, flakes are frosted.

Speaker 7 (18:31):
Blakes are frosted because it's you know, it's just one
of those needless, senseless stories that.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
Just makes you go that so many of them are.

Speaker 4 (18:39):
I know.

Speaker 7 (18:40):
But a twenty nine year old man is under arrest
in connection to what o'calla police are calling, quote a
random act of violence end quote, and it truly is.
Isaac Ezekie ol Toy is charged with murder and aggravated assault.
He's accused of shooting and killing sixty four year old
Harold Wit Harper while he was simply gardening in his
front yard Wednesday. The scene unfolded in the Historic District

(19:04):
on Southeast third Street around three thirty pm. Police don't
believe it was a targeted attack. Guys just in his
front yard doing some gardening on a Wednesday afternoon when
this twenty nine year old guy walks by and shoots
and kills.

Speaker 4 (19:15):
Him in his front yard.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
Unbelievable. That's like the Halloween guy.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
Yeah exactly.

Speaker 3 (19:20):
I was just walking around downtown, just shooting random people
for no reason.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
No, no reason, yeah exactly.

Speaker 7 (19:25):
Which, by the way, that case, he is now going
to get his second mental health evaluation, so his trial
has been delayed, all right. A judge's ruling could be
some good news for some families on Medicaid. A federal
judge rule tuesday that the state denied due process to
low income residents who lost their Medicaid coverage after the pandemic.
The judge found the state also failed to give those

(19:46):
residents a fair chance to appeal losing their coverage. The
ruling came after a class action lawsuit was filed against
the state in twenty twenty three. It could affect tens
of thousands of people in the state who were added
to the Medicaid roles during the pandemic. State officials haven't
said yet if they're going to appeal the ruling.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
I would assume that they are.

Speaker 7 (20:06):
In the meantime, though, the House is set to pass
the bill extending the ACA subsidies today. Speaking about Florida's
healthcare priorities in advance of the state legislative session. Health
policy professor Joan Alker explained that Florida must do better.

Speaker 14 (20:21):
Florida in particular, has really benefited from these enhanced subsidies.
Over a million people in Florida would lose their subsidized
marketplace coverage with the expiring enhanced tax credit.

Speaker 4 (20:33):
So GOOP.

Speaker 7 (20:33):
Representative Maria Alvira Salazar is a yes vote, as her
Miami area district has the highest percentage of people enrolled
in the plans and nationally the Affordable Care Act subsidies
that expired on December thirty first. Unfortunately, it's expected to
fall short in the Senate. Florida's sixty day legislative session
begins on January thirteenth. All right, this next story is crazy.

(20:56):
A Manatee County girl is making our marketing rather a
milestone and her recovery from a rare condition so rare
they don't even have a name for it.

Speaker 3 (21:06):
That's pretty rare. Yeah, what do you do there?

Speaker 7 (21:10):
Seventeen year old Jasmine Ramirez of great intents, it's.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
Just become Jasmine Ramirez disease.

Speaker 7 (21:15):
Basically, she was released from the hospital yesterday after doctors
spent over sixteen hours removing her left leg last month.
A tumor she's been dealing with most of her life
caused her leg, just her left leg to swell to
one hundred and seventy four pounds.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
Hold up?

Speaker 7 (21:35):
What a tumor she has been dealing with most of
her life caused her left leg, just her left leg
to swell to one hundred and seventy four pounds. Wow,
now you understand the sixteen hours it took to amputated.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
Yeah, yeah, because they probably had to make sure that
she didn't bleed out while they're doing it.

Speaker 7 (21:54):
Well, not only that, it also recently got infected, so
her doctor decided amputation was the best choice. Now, like
I said, there's no official name for her condition, so
doctors planned to study the amputated leg to learn more.
As for Jasmine, she tells ten Tampa Bay, she's getting
stronger every day.

Speaker 3 (22:12):
Good for her.

Speaker 4 (22:12):
Yeah, can you imagine?

Speaker 1 (22:14):
Cannot?

Speaker 4 (22:15):
I mean, just unbelievable answers Exactly.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
When you get diagnosed from a doctor. Well, I'm still
curious of like what they.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
Like, exactly what was the diagnosis was?

Speaker 3 (22:26):
And that's the I mean, the worst news possible is
we're not really sure.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (22:31):
We've never seen it before.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
Man, Yes, hi, I am doctor Colbert. We have your
diagnosis and it's u We're not a hundo.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
He says, right here, you got it practicing medicine.

Speaker 5 (22:45):
Right, They're gonna try let's try this, try anbiotics, try.

Speaker 7 (22:49):
This right exactly one hundred and seventy four pounds at
only seventeen.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
But that is worst case scenario.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
Doctor going like, nah, now.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
Is flipping coins?

Speaker 1 (22:58):
You are one point all right house here? Will you
walk into the patient and go what do you think? Hey,
someone get an AI in here.

Speaker 7 (23:09):
Someone talked to Chad gpt time maybe running out to
stop the sale of a historic property in Orange County.

Speaker 4 (23:15):
Man, they just keep getting the shaft.

Speaker 7 (23:17):
The county school Board will meet Tuesday to vote on
selling the former home of the Hungerford School in Eatonville
to Doctor Phillips Charities.

Speaker 4 (23:25):
Eatonville officials were.

Speaker 7 (23:26):
Hoping the school board would donate the land to the town,
but that seems unlikely, so town officials hope they can
at least have some input into how that land is developed.
Doctor Phillips Charities say they plan to build homes, businesses,
and other facilities, but Eatonville officials are worried those aren't
going to generate enough tax revenue for the town.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
And if I remember that deal right, the way that
was originally written back in the day when that whole
land was decided it was going to be sold off,
was a certain portion of that land was supposed to
remain and something that was built on that was supposed
to reflect the community standards, the value of the neighborhood.
Was it not ye supposed to be used for educational
work exactly, Yes, so it was a portion of land

(24:07):
has to be used for educational purposes, which is why
I think they the donation to the school board.

Speaker 5 (24:12):
They figured, oh, it's safe for that. But then when
the school board said, oh, we're just going to sell
this like wait, wait, pump the brake right exactly, there's
a caveat with this land.

Speaker 3 (24:21):
It wasn't there. It was because of a bad deal
made years ago that it was just kind of a
sideways deal where it left windows open for people to
be able to kind of make not amendments to it
or whatever, but allowed to kind of maybe work around
the rules.

Speaker 7 (24:32):
Assuming that the school board had done that. Because when
the land was originally donated. The family had said that,
you know, that school was supposed to be that land
was supposed to be for the education of African American children,
and that you know, and did you.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
Hear how much Doctor Phillips paid for it? It was
only like a million dollars or something, right, exactly a
million dollars.

Speaker 7 (24:50):
I believed the agreement was that part of that was
supposed to go to the town of Eaton Hill, Eatonville.
So the Orlando Sentinel reports the Eatonville Town Council is
planning to meet with Doctor Phillips Charities a week after
Tuesday's school board meeting.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
And I hear their strife inside that council as well.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
I Mean, here's the problem.

Speaker 7 (25:07):
It's such a choice piece of property that no matter
how many what the agreement was made for me, all
it seems to be happening between the charity and the
school board is just dollar signs, yea. And they're just
trying to figure out how to bend these people over
the barrel and take whatever they.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
Yeah, I don't they want. What's that forty or fifty
acres butting up against Winter Park. I mean, what value
could it possibly have?

Speaker 4 (25:27):
Right off?

Speaker 1 (25:27):
Five four really, it really sounds like like a murder
mystery with a rich family member that has died.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
Oh yeah, it does like knives out It sounds like
knives out here.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
And Doctor Phillips company. I don't know how much impact
you know, those guys having Orlando. If you go over
in the North Orange Bosson Trail area where that brand
new food area, that thing that Danny's been talking about,
that's all Doctor Phillips property, all that.

Speaker 7 (25:48):
Yep, yeah, all right, you might want to think twice
about driving too fast through Brevard County. The Sheriff's office
has been cracking down on speeding on I ninety five
this week, and Sheriff Wayne Ivy says deputies issued how
many it's for violations yesterday?

Speaker 3 (26:04):
Thirteen? It seems low, Jack, it's way low. I did
you a face. I'm going to go twenty five and
that seems low.

Speaker 7 (26:11):
I'll go seventy five points ross ninety seven violations yesterday.
Over seventy of them were for speeding, including two for
super speeding. Over two days, Ivy says over two hundred
citations have been issued.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
Yeah. Have you guys ever called the cops and said, hey,
you guys want to make a few bucks, come set
up here at my old house around the corner here.
It was a cut through area, and man, we would
have people ripping on that road like crazy. And I
called someone on the county one day and said, you
want to make a lot of money, just come to
sit on this road right here, and just get your
ticket book ready.

Speaker 5 (26:46):
If you're keeping score at home. And that makes Jim
the rat, the rat, the rat.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
The rat that doesn't want my kids get run over
by some maniac cutting through.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
But you speed, not through neighborhoods. Yeah, but you basically
rat on your own kind of people.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
I don't think you so crazy.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
I'm just saying, all.

Speaker 7 (27:04):
Right, The Miami Dolphins are moving on from head coach
Mike McDaniel after four seasons and back to back years
without a playoff appearance.

Speaker 4 (27:12):
Amazing that he missed Black Monday, right.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Yeah, the Harball. That's exactly what happened. They were waiting
to see what happened with John Harball. And if you'll
notice when that announcement was made, when they blew Harball
out like two days later or day later, like how
you going well? Well? Right before that they said, oh no,
we're keeping it the Harbor is available.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 7 (27:30):
Owner Stephen Ross says the franchise needs quote comprehensive change
end quote, as it also searches for a new general manager. Meanwhile,
in Tampa, the Buccaneers have fired offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard
after the offense stalled late in the season. The Bucks,
who are keeping head coach Todd Bowles, are now searching
for their fifth offensive coordinator in five years. ESPN reports

(27:54):
Tampa Bay is also parting ways with quarterbacks coach fad Lewis.
Wow all right, city in Marion County is drawing new
residents like no other. We talked yesterday about the U
HAUL moving data that showed Texas's number one Florida is
number two. Now, what city is the number one growth
city in the country.

Speaker 3 (28:14):
The number one city for growth in the country.

Speaker 7 (28:16):
And it's in Marion County And this is a course
according to you haul's twenty twenty five growth index.

Speaker 3 (28:22):
Well, the only town in Marion County would have to
be like Ocallo right there, you go.

Speaker 7 (28:26):
It's number one, just like it was in twenty twenty
four and in twenty two.

Speaker 4 (28:30):
Kissimmi is fourth.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
Beautiful land up there by the way, Okeala is a
stone cold, beautiful.

Speaker 4 (28:36):
Area and lots of money with them horses.

Speaker 7 (28:39):
Claremont is fifth, Daytona Beach is ninth, and Leesburg is sixteenth.
U Haul ranks the cities based on their net gain
or loss of customers who rented a one way truck
trailer or U box moving containers in one city and
dropped it off and another city.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
Another thing with these cities, if you look at in
the cost of living in these cities is still relatively
approachable compare comparatively, and again with all the infrastructure of
roads that we have here in central Florida, it makes
those places accessible as before it did not. You have
to take two lane roads here with stop lights, and
it took you an hour and a half a get somewhere.
Now with the big roads that that drives thirty five minutes.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
Not anymore.

Speaker 1 (29:14):
Yeah, all right.

Speaker 7 (29:15):
Three Florida cities are considered among the top ten best
places to retire in the South.

Speaker 4 (29:20):
You want to take a guess what any of them,
any of the.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
Three are, I'll say South Carolina.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
Nope, these are three Florida cities.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
Three Florida cities. Fort Lauderdale No, No, Fort La Fail. Jacksonville.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
No, I mean Orlando, A couple are close to home, Lady, Lake.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Villages nameless, makeo POMBEI.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
The villages Okay, the villages is one all.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
Right that checks out in every cardinal direction in Melbourne.

Speaker 4 (29:48):
Nope, jack one more.

Speaker 5 (29:50):
I will say Saint Cloud, Naples, Sarasota, Oh really yeah, yah, Sarasota,
Lake Nona, Yeah, and.

Speaker 4 (29:58):
The villages of course, that's beautiful.

Speaker 7 (30:00):
That's According to Travel and Leisure magazine, Sarasota was praised
for its white sand beaches that was sand beaches and
cultural scene, while Lake Nona offers top notch healthcare right
and a wellness focused community.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
The Villages provides a variety.

Speaker 7 (30:15):
In activities and amenities for retirees on all budgets, according
to the report, In other words, health and wellness, go
to Lake Nona for sandy beaches and culture scene. Go
to Sarasota. If you want to get it ripped, go
to the villages.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
Yeah. That Nona area is really a yupped I mean
it is yupped up man out there. It is like
all those young young medical professionals are just thinking that
blaz up out there.

Speaker 5 (30:39):
Just hospitals and then a town around it, so, yeah,
it's good for medical.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
Care about this. It was just Cowfields eighteen years ago
with a two lane road that ran from it from
there to Saint Cloud. You leave Orlando, next stop Saint Cloud.
Now it is an entire metropolitan area out.

Speaker 7 (30:58):
I just love the way they say the villages provide.
It's a variety of activities and amenities that kind of
bugs bunny, you know. Double entendre.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
Villages also leads the league in golf cart death.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
It's out there, man, I've the last time I was
at the villages, I learned some stuff. I learned about
how there was in one restaurant that just like, oh yeah, you.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
Might want to cover your drink.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Every time I'm out there, I'm just reminded, like, not
only is this the place where they make old people,
this is also where they make old people cool. Yeah,
like they're having a fun time.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Yeah. Yeah, it's it's wild, though, it is. It is
a bit dumb. God, what's the word. It's like the
party will be raging at eight thirty, and by eight
forty five, all that party is asleep. Yeah except for
that one bar.

Speaker 7 (31:45):
Yeah, and that concludes your JCS news.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
Doom Doom, doom. Oh wow, really morbid?

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Man, what'd you guys think?

Speaker 3 (31:55):
All right? For seven nine one Froggers Football Forecast is next.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
It's time for the Froggers Football Forecast on the Jim
Colbert Show.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
That's right, it is time for the Froggers Football Forecast,
brought two by our good friends over at Frogger's Grilling
Bar for these beautiful locations all throughout Central.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Florida to serve you.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
And man, do they serve you ice cold beer, delicious food,
and I mean everything from cal Zones to Perogi's, some
of the best wings you'll have out there, some damn
good pizzas as well, plus wonderful people that work there.
Just a good ass time at any Froggers you choose.
That's right, four area locations, great food at all four
and all of those big ass TVs as well. Love

(32:36):
it Ovito, Mount Dora, a Popka, Altamont Springs. But if
it's easy, you just go to Froggers dot Com rivit
and you find the one near you. That's right. All right, Well,
we're gonna do is gonna pick our playoff games here.
I think we'll do all of these because there's only
six games. There's no reason not to and the one
reason not to.

Speaker 5 (32:53):
But what what's the reason that they on Tuesday have
to pick which one of us does the best?

Speaker 1 (32:58):
So anyone right now keeping score?

Speaker 5 (33:01):
If they get through, and if they get on the
phone with us, they will know exactly which member of
the show did that.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
Well, then how about we do it like this, say
we're leaning this way.

Speaker 5 (33:14):
You know what they don't know. They don't know the
tie breaker situation. Yeah, of the point.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
Total, all right, we can just celebrate the fact that
if they did their homework.

Speaker 5 (33:23):
I do like the fact that, hey, yes, we're rewarding
you for listening so close a on Thursday and getting
in on Tuesday. Congratulations, you deserve the twenty five dollars
gift card.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
I don't know about you, guys. There's only like a
couple of these games. I think that are like automatics.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
I think the others I think this this police playoffs.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
I think they pay a pretty darn well. I don't
know how many blowouts are going to see. I think
the first game is the only real automatic. Yeah, the
Rams Panthers. I mean, obviously, I think we're all we
all believe that the Rams are going to take them out.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
I believe that the Rams are going to take them out. However,
if you're looking for a bet, man, I'm reading right
here that they are giving ten points to the Rams.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
Ten and a half.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
I think it's gonna be a closer manage than that. That.
That's a bet that immediately jumped out to me. I'm like, whoah,
you give the Panthers ten points. I kind of like that.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
I would agree with that because the Rams have a
history of having a hiccup game. Occasionally they'll win, but
you know, they won't blow out a team. They should
be beating my touchdown plush, you know.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
And also the Panthers, what a story?

Speaker 3 (34:19):
Yeah, I agree?

Speaker 1 (34:20):
Man, did they need something for that franchise?

Speaker 3 (34:22):
Unbelievable. I gotta tell you one of the best bets.
If you'd have gone back with eight six games left
in the season and bet that the Panthers would win
the NFC South, I mean, well, that pay. I mean
they've gone through so much heartbreak.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
I don't know. I'm so happy that the Panthers in
the playoffs. They are probably gonna lose.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
They've been in the Super Bowl before.

Speaker 5 (34:41):
They got a little heartbreak However, they also backed their
way into the playoffs as well.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, they certainly did. But they also didn't
do what Tampa did and lose like five of the
last six to get out of the playoffs. Yeah, you
know what I'm saying. So all right, so I think
you know Debio Rams Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, Okay, let's
move on to Deb's game of the week. Packers bare.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
This this is the best weekend of football that's happened in.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
The last dec I couldn't agree more.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
It's so good.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
I have the Bears there. I I think the Packers
have had a weird last few games of the season.
They don't look to be super confident. The Bears, on
the other hand.

Speaker 5 (35:15):
This is one of the most storied rivalries in the
history of the NFL, and I believe this is only
the third time then that meeting in the postseason.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
Yeah, it's crazy, and they split the other two. Yeah,
I Bears. Yeah, I'm one Bears. I'm thinking about going Bears.
I'm thinking about going Bears. I'm considering the Bears.

Speaker 5 (35:34):
Rust and I were just talking about this three minutes ago,
and I was a little undecided.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Yeah, I think I'm gonna flip. I'm going Packers. I'm
gonna go Packers because I think the Bears are just
too good of a story. If they win, I'll be
kind of rooting for the Bears. Man, they need something,
But I'm going Packers. Do I even have to look
your way?

Speaker 4 (35:54):
I'm going Bears.

Speaker 3 (35:55):
Okay, what no, come on, I'm just getting the drop.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
Yeah, noorry, there we go, Bills Jags in Jacksonville.

Speaker 4 (36:06):
I'm going Jacksonville.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
God mighty, what's that?

Speaker 1 (36:10):
A one?

Speaker 3 (36:11):
One and a half? Yeah? One and a half. It's
basically a pick him game.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
Yep, yep, it is a coin flip.

Speaker 3 (36:16):
Bears fav or the Bills favored in Jacksonville? Is that
is an unbelievable spread. To me, That's unbelievable considering how
both of these teams have played the last month. It's
just hard to believe that the Bills are a favorite here.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
Man, how about this? Do the Bills feel like a
six seed?

Speaker 15 (36:31):
No?

Speaker 1 (36:32):
They are the weirdest, Yes, sixth seed in a lot?

Speaker 3 (36:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Do I think the.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
Bills can win one hundred percent? But I do. I
believe based on what I've seen the last three or
four weeks in the league, the Bills can win. I don't.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
Let's go Jack, I'm going Jags. I'm going Jags.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
I'm Bills all the way. Are you really?

Speaker 16 (36:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 17 (36:47):
For you?

Speaker 3 (36:48):
I put my money, all right? Very nice.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
That's a win win situation because I know you enough
to know that you're rooting for the Jags.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
Yeah. Somebody said the Panthers beat the Rams three weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
Well you can't. It's hard to beat the team twice.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
It is forty niners Eagles. The Eagles again have had
a very odd end of the season. Forty nine Ers
got all the players they are supposed to have back
back their full bore Kittle uh brought Purty.

Speaker 1 (37:14):
And look haffree and looked like crap last year.

Speaker 5 (37:17):
Yeah, and I'm still going with the road team, the
forty nine.

Speaker 3 (37:21):
I'm also going forty nine Ers.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
Same here the screw.

Speaker 1 (37:24):
This is where you guys goofed it. Yeah, Philly, Philly.
It's at Philly. It should be cold Philly. Playoffs, playoffs.
It's just I'm going Philly, all right. I mean, you like.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
Theners don't have any playoff experience. I mean you know,
I mean they had a run, they know what they're doing. True, Okay,
got a good coach.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
I mean, Siriani cried when the national anthem played in
the last year's Super Bowl. And I'm going with the tier.

Speaker 4 (37:50):
What does the Vegas odds have?

Speaker 3 (37:51):
Yeah, what do the odds say in that game? That's
a good That's a good question.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
Maybe that is a good question. Maybe that's what's determining
my choice here.

Speaker 4 (37:58):
Yeah, I'm switching to the Eagles.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Eagles minus four and a half.

Speaker 3 (38:03):
Wow, they're a four point your favorite? Wow? Really?

Speaker 1 (38:06):
If you talk ye home? Yeah yeah, at home Philly playoffs, you.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
Guys switch in am I'm singing with the Niners. I
feel the Niners. Of my gut is filled with hate.
Chargers Patriots, the game nobody really cares about. I think
the Patriots are gonna win by a pretty good margin,
and its spread there is gonna be what at least
a touchdown? Right, maybe six?

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Three and a half?

Speaker 3 (38:24):
Is it really? I'm sorry?

Speaker 1 (38:26):
Five and a half?

Speaker 5 (38:26):
No, no, no, no, three and a half. I got
Patriots minus three.

Speaker 3 (38:31):
In New England. It has to be right. You're right
in New England it is yeah, yeah, I mean I
got Patriots. Yeah, sure, Patriots are right.

Speaker 11 (38:38):
YEA.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
Who do you have is your MVP. Do you have
Drake Drake or Stafford.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Man god Man?

Speaker 3 (38:44):
I mean, because they were like what four and like
four and twelve last year or something.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
Yeah, he had you know, like the whole adage of
like you can't, you know, fault the player for who
they've played, You can only play the competition in front
of you.

Speaker 3 (38:56):
Sure.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
Yeah, he has one of the craziest stats starting quarterback
I've ever had. It's like he's only played like two
winning teams all year. Oh really, all the teams that
he's played. It was an easy schedule, but it also
turned out to be even easier than easier when he
was in twenty twenty hindsight. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
And then lastly here Texans Steelers and this is actually
I think a pretty good game as well. I don't
know what the spread is on this. What's at two
and a half two something like that?

Speaker 5 (39:22):
Uh, it is three Texans favored by three in Pittsburgh.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
In Pittsburgh, right, Yeah, Texan's tough, really good defense, maybe
the best defense in the league.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
I'm going Steelers.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
And what is what is Pittsburghs running game? Like, I mean,
if they if they make it, if they pinch their
running game and put it all on Roger's shoulders. I
don't I don't know that they have the receiving corps
and I don't know. Well, they're getting their.

Speaker 5 (39:46):
Best receiver back after he was, you know, serving suspension.

Speaker 3 (39:50):
Yeah, I'm going Steelers, damn. Really yeah, I'm going Texans. There.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
That's a smarter bet.

Speaker 3 (39:57):
Their favorite, man, I know. But still, I just think
they're a better football team.

Speaker 1 (40:00):
I think that's a I think the Texans, if they
pull this off, grab some wins in the playoffs, this
defense will get its proper flowers. This defense all year
is scary. I don't know what drug tests.

Speaker 3 (40:14):
Between the Texas and Seattle, man, I don't know, dude,
those defenses are crazy. Oh hell ye, the NFL playoffs
are here? Are you where? You don't think Steelers? Steelers?

Speaker 10 (40:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (40:26):
Wow?

I know.

Speaker 16 (43:21):
I've been soaking up those post vacation vibes as long.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
As Yeah, this is the time you actually got to
take a break. You could take a breath right until
Valentine's or no, okay.

Speaker 16 (43:32):
It's slightly. It's like we'll call the holiday season a
twelve and we're at like an eight nine, okay, because
we also have Tampa and they were getting ready for Gasparilla.

Speaker 3 (43:41):
Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that Gasprilla.

Speaker 16 (43:43):
And Valentines and planning the whole year.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
Danny appears courtesy of Orlando Date Night Guide or Orlando
Hyphenparenting dot Com as well, that's the parenting part. They
do have some stuff over in Tampa as well. She
drops in to tell us what's happening in town. Give
you an idea of something you can do with loved ones,
with your family, whatever the case may be. What is
going on this weekend?

Speaker 16 (44:03):
Anybody you care about or take care about yourself, Maybe
you're trying to get to know somebout it.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
Yes, are you trying to send your enemies away but
have them still like you? Yeah?

Speaker 16 (44:12):
We got you keep them closer, yes, all right. So
happening tonight through Sunday, it is the Winter Minifest with Fringe,
which is fantastic. It's a great way to kind of
dip your toe if you've never done the full Fringe
that we do in May. The Winter Minifest is some
of the best, the well received fringe artists, new creatives

(44:34):
that are scouted from national and international fringe circuit. So
that's starting yesterday through Sunday. Tickets start at fifteen dollars.
You do need to purchase a three dollars button to
be part of any of the shows, but once you
purchase it, you're good. Just kind of helps support the
whole festival. And there is a Kid's mini Fringe on Saturday,

(44:56):
so all of this is happening at the Orlando shiks
like Lockhaven Park and so on Saturday is the Kids
Fringe from ten a m. To noon and it's essentially
just a special morning of programming just for kids. You've
got to Orlando Family Stage doing stuff, so uh and
it's gonna be great weather for it, So that's a
great area to go head down to.

Speaker 3 (45:17):
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 16 (45:18):
And with it being mini Fringe, you're probably gonna see
some weird stuff. I would imagine Roster speak to some
of that.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
But I would say you were actually completely accurate saying
that this is a great introductory to Fringe. It's not
the full kit and kaboodle, but it is it can
get weird in the best way possible.

Speaker 16 (45:37):
Yes, yeah, because I find sometimes like the May regular
Fringe is a little overwhelming, like there's you know, the
Pink Venue in the Purple Yeah, it's kind.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
Of like a best of in a lot of ways
as well.

Speaker 16 (45:48):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And I'm not sure how many folks
are celebrating this, but I assure am it is dry.
January and The Neighbors, which is at east End Market
one of my favorite bars, whether I'm drinking or not.
The Neighbors is at upstairs of the East End Market,
and I love that it's Orlando themed and I love

(46:09):
that all the drinks have like Orlando neighborhood names.

Speaker 3 (46:12):
Yeah, that's cool.

Speaker 16 (46:13):
So they are doing some non alcoholic options if you
are per taking they still have their regular menu. It's
not like they've they've kicked it out and that started
on the fifth and they're running it all through the
month of January. And we have a full list of
dry January options at Orlando date nightguide dot com. If
you want to give it a go, I recommend it,

(46:34):
or even if you just take a week off, I
don't know, go for it.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
Now.

Speaker 16 (46:38):
I've mentioned a lot of coffee parties.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
Oh yeah, lately, we just talked about the coffee thing,
the explosion of these little coffee trailers popping up all
over corners in Orlando.

Speaker 16 (46:47):
Yeah, yep, so this one is very legit. So not
that like any that I've mentioned previously or not. But
the Coffee Fiesta is happening on Sunday, January eleventh, doors
open at eleven eleven. I love that stuff, and this is.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
I fall for it every time.

Speaker 3 (47:09):
You are such a nerd. I love it.

Speaker 16 (47:11):
There's a backstory to it, if I may take a
quick side trip. I was born on two to two,
My brother was born on eleven eleven, My mom was
born on four to four, her dad was born on
four to four, her mom was born one day from
being one to one, and my kid was born at
twelve thirty on twelve thirty.

Speaker 3 (47:28):
Oh that's crazy, thank you, all right, very now.

Speaker 4 (47:30):
I got an everything in that thing.

Speaker 3 (47:32):
Yeah, it's definitely glossed over.

Speaker 1 (47:34):
But I definitely felt the one day away from one
to one that there was one short. But we might
as well just round up to kyo.

Speaker 16 (47:40):
I thank you little extra check mark.

Speaker 3 (47:43):
All right.

Speaker 16 (47:43):
So back to the Coffee Fiesta. It is taking place
at the sky Lounge rooftop at the Kia Center and
it involves the Orlando Magic So your ticket is sixty
five bucks. It is twenty one and up only. They're
going to have reggaetone, afro house and salsa and afterwards
you go into the Magic Game. So you get all

(48:04):
hyped up on coffee, you get all hyped up on
the on the fun salsa, reggaetone music, socialize, have a
good time, and then you go in for the Orlando
Magic Game. That sounds a good, very nice good time.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
Yes, don't get me started.

Speaker 16 (48:19):
And checked it into my van.

Speaker 3 (48:20):
Oh man, just port my eyeballs.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
If Jack said it like a caveman a Geico commercials.
Apparently Frankenstein likes coffee.

Speaker 16 (48:30):
Yeah, also happening Sunday at ten am to two pm.
Totally different vibes. Is Three Kings Day happening at Old Town.
It is freed Mission. This is a little bit more
on like the family friendly side. But this Three Kings
Day celebration is gonna have free snacks like hot dogs, popcorn,

(48:51):
cotton candy, snow cones. You're gonna sugar up the family.
And then they are doing like toy giveaways, bicycle raffles
and such using al tickets. And the Three Kings visitors
are going to visit to Old Town as well.

Speaker 3 (49:05):
Oh there you go so much for I have not heard.
It'd be so bummed. Yeah, repected Jesus skycoaster. Those guys
are on EA scooters, not camels. Have you seen these candles?
They're amazing. Yeah, man, that's crazy. I haven't heard Old

(49:26):
Town in a minute.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
They're trying, You're trying.

Speaker 11 (49:29):
You know.

Speaker 16 (49:30):
That's good stuff. And lastly, I want to dish on
some fun date experiences that I've enjoyed recently. So while
on vacation, I went to the MICAI in Fort Lauderdale,
absolutely legendary. You guys familiar with.

Speaker 3 (49:45):
No, I don't even know that is right.

Speaker 16 (49:48):
So excited. Okay, the mic.

Speaker 3 (49:51):
Man man man the glasses really where the exclamation point
behind the nerds? I like it.

Speaker 16 (50:01):
I think I need some Martin Denny. So the my
Kai is in Fort Lauderdale is a Polynesian tiki show
that has been running since the nineteen fifties. Oh really,
and they closed down a couple of years ago, went
through a major renovation and it was painstakingly done by
this guy named Typhoon Tommy who does like all these

(50:23):
cool tiki bar designs. So we went there.

Speaker 3 (50:26):
It is.

Speaker 16 (50:27):
It was decked out for Christmas. So they do a
Polynesian show. But then you've got like a bar that
looks like an old ship. They built out a new
outdoor bar called the Bora Bora Bar. This place is
so fu and they do happy hour every day.

Speaker 3 (50:39):
Yeah that sounds fun.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
So this is a.

Speaker 16 (50:41):
Great, you know, weekend getaway Fort Lauderdale. If Fort Lauderdale
is not your thing. We did Deerfield Beach, which is
a little quieter, but it was thirty minutes to go
to the my Kai. So right, yeah, yeah, definitely if
you're looking for like a cool, you know place for
a little weekend get away.

Speaker 3 (50:57):
Anytime. We go to South Borida. We stay a bunch
of miles in front of South Florida, and then we
commute into South Florida and then leave South Florida. We
do not stay in South Florida. Yeah, and not care
for South Florida.

Speaker 16 (51:07):
That's what I liked about Deerfield Beach is that insuccessible.
And I still you know, we still got the beach vibes,
but I had to deal with like the.

Speaker 4 (51:14):
Typical yeah, very cool nonsense.

Speaker 16 (51:15):
So we have a full experience up about the MICAI
and about Deerfield Beach on Orlando date dot com.

Speaker 3 (51:22):
Very nice, yeah, very nice. Hey, when does your Valentine's
Day stuff start?

Speaker 16 (51:27):
So we did our first like big update. In fact,
we're sending that out in our newsletter today, so for
those that want to jump on those dinner reservations and stuff,
that'll be going out in tonight's newsletter, and then we
are updating our guides every almost every day at this point.

Speaker 3 (51:42):
And for the record, used as a public service announcement,
if you do plan on going out to dinner for
Valentine's Day, you should be making your reservations now if
you haven't already made them, because the restaurant's seen in
this city is one of the best on the entire
East coast of the United States of America. And these restaurants,
especially the ones that have a good reputation, fill up immediately.

(52:04):
Like I'm not kidding, I've made I tried to make
a reservation last year in the first week of January,
and the first two choices I made were completely booked already.
And the dessert spots are the same way. Like better
than Sex on Orange Avenue is like one of those
things in Orlando you have to go to at least once.
But if you're not booking that like the instant that
you can book on that date, because sometimes you'll have

(52:26):
a two week out kind of thing where you can't
book before that. But trust me when I tell you
what the instant that that's available, those things will book up.
So get in front of it early or you'll get
left out right now in central Florida because the scene
is so hot.

Speaker 16 (52:38):
And the good news is Valentine's Day is a Saturday
this year, yes, so if by chance you miss your
first choice on Saturday, then book it for Friday.

Speaker 3 (52:46):
Right yeah, Friday night or on Sunday, or do a
Sunday brunch thing, Sunday afternoon thing. You can certainly do that,
and I think your loved one will understand.

Speaker 4 (52:53):
Yeah, day drinking and a nooner. Oh yeah that I'll
make up for it.

Speaker 3 (52:57):
That's the name of the show today. Right. For the record, Danny,

Turned to the experts at Carrier and turn to the
experts at Millsare dot Com.

Speaker 6 (54:27):
Good afternoon, Culbrat and Company. It's concrete, Mike. I'm wanna
rant for a second. Bear with me. We're doomed. At
least the construction industry is doomed. These millennials, these gen
zs and jen whatever it is now, none of them
want to work. They got no urgency, they got no hustle.
They just want eric their phone all day and then

(54:48):
screw around and not do nothing. I'm working with a
twenty seven year old guy right now, and I run
circles around this dude every day, and I'm forty nine.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
It's not just in construction, Mike. I happen to know
a company that had to hire some people over the
holidays for warehouse work, very simple stuff with a pretty
darn good salary for the job that's at at hand,
and they had to they would have to send five
or six of them home a day because they just
simply wouldn't work, would not would do, would do a

(55:24):
little bit of work, stop and get on their phone
for an hour, do a little bit of work, get
on their phone for an hour, and they just send
them home. I don't know, all right? For seven nine
four one text us seven seven zero three one. I'm Jim.
There's deb Jack and Ross as well.

Speaker 1 (55:39):
I'm confused on how that guy really felt. Leave another talkback,
tell us how you really feel.

Speaker 3 (55:44):
It's just it's so.

Speaker 5 (55:48):
Weird to me to think that anyone would approach a
job with that attitude and just but I guess you're
just so used to always having your phone in your hand.

Speaker 3 (55:57):
Yeah, yeah, Are you feel entitled so much where you
don't feel like you know, again, it's just the workload
that gets put out as just you know, it's the
least amount of input for the maximum amount of output
that you can get for yourself. Like, what's the least
amount I can do and get away with it. That
seems to be at some In some cases, that seems
to be the mentality, like what's the least amount I
can do and still maintain this job and get paid?

(56:19):
Almost like that, what's the movie Office Space? Yeah, like,
what's the least I can do and still hang on here?

Speaker 4 (56:24):
Stapler?

Speaker 1 (56:25):
Yeah, well, I mean office Space. If I'm trying to
remember correctly, it might not be the best example that
you should have for people trying to work hard.

Speaker 3 (56:33):
No, no, what I'm saying it's the opposite of that, that
mentality that he took. He's like, hey, I'll just you know,
I'm whatever.

Speaker 1 (56:38):
And what I'm saying that the movie Office Space perfectly
explained why he had that attitude exactly.

Speaker 16 (56:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
Yeah, Like, if you want to know the answer of
why aren't people working hard? I would say, actually, Office
Space might be a great example of where to start. Well,
I mean the.

Speaker 3 (56:52):
Thing is is, like you if you go to a
construction type, are you saying that maybe the job requires
too much for what you're getting paid. If you get
onto a construction crewer, you know what's coming dude. You
understand Like if you go to a warehouse to work.
You understand the job? I mean, what do you expect?

Speaker 1 (57:05):
My whole statement is, and I'm not necesss. I don't
know virtually anything about a construction job, but I do
know about office space. And office space is you know
a guy driven to the edge of madness from the
corporate job clock in crock out. Yeah, I'm not gonna
give my best effort because what matters all I'm I'm
drowning in fluorescent lights putting numbers in a keyboard.

Speaker 3 (57:28):
And regardless of how hard I work, it's gonna get
me nowhere. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (57:32):
Yeah, that's kind of what that movie, at least that's
what I took from it.

Speaker 3 (57:35):
All right, seven to seven zero three to one. Welcome
back to the Jim Colbert Show. Jack, we put our
question of the day up. It is up.

Speaker 5 (57:41):
It's on Instagram right now and it's going in YouTube chat.

Speaker 3 (57:45):
Okay, you want the wording though, Yeah, give me the
wording because this is based on a little story that
I saw today that's kind of interesting. Just a little
blurb actually.

Speaker 1 (57:52):
And also give them the word because there's a long
history of wording. It's a favor whatever. That's been one
of my favorite bits here forever.

Speaker 3 (58:03):
All right? Question today, you go to our YouTube channel.
It's a real radio dot fm slash watch right there
in the comments you can see it. Yeah oh yeah.

Speaker 5 (58:10):
And if you're on a real radio's Instagram story, I
even use graphics.

Speaker 3 (58:14):
Very nice.

Speaker 5 (58:15):
Nice, Yeah, I made that ross nice. How often do
you wash your jeans?

Speaker 1 (58:19):
Is it after each wear weekly, monthly or less?

Speaker 3 (58:23):
Okay? And the reason why I bring that up is
the Levi's company, Levi Strauss. I guess it is, right. Yeah.
They issued their number today of how many times they
think you should wear your jeans before you wash them.
And this obviously wasn't This list was not made in Florida,
this number, this number was did not. This number did

(58:46):
not come up in Florida. That's what I am.

Speaker 11 (58:47):
Sure.

Speaker 1 (58:47):
We got a little everglades in all of us.

Speaker 3 (58:49):
Yeah, yeah, how many? How many times do you think
the Levi company Levi Strauss says you should wear a
pair of their jeans before you wash them?

Speaker 4 (58:57):
Twelve?

Speaker 1 (58:58):
God, I hope it's hot.

Speaker 3 (59:00):
I'll go eight till you say twelve. And you say
eight fifty fifty jack?

Speaker 1 (59:07):
Fifty jack?

Speaker 3 (59:10):
Do you know what? Do you know what an exaggeration?
Do you know what numbers are four? It's ten. Yes, yes,
they want you to wash them. They want you to
wear them ten times before you wash them. I will
tell you straight up. The jeans I have on right now,
this is my third wear with these. It will not
get past five like max for me is five. Because
what happens is is that sweat and that body oil

(59:33):
makes them loose, and I like them to fit a
little tighter. You know, I don't like them droopy. So
I've been feeling this way for years.

Speaker 1 (59:41):
I've always People always want to make the joke of like, oh,
you ain't a couple more pounds. It's like, no, my
pants are freshly washed, right, and they got to like,
I guess rev up for a couple of hours like
people always sleep on that.

Speaker 3 (59:54):
Yeah. I like I like them loose.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
I like them a little broken down, a little more oily,
a little there will be.

Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
Are you more of a five to six kind of guy?
Or you higher than that?

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
Ah?

Speaker 3 (01:00:04):
Yeah, dude, I'm higher than that, are you really, buddy?

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:00:07):
How many pair do you have that rotate?

Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
Three?

Speaker 3 (01:00:11):
I've got three pair of jeans that are rotate how
about you? Jack?

Speaker 11 (01:00:15):
So?

Speaker 5 (01:00:15):
Three pair and over the Christmas break got two more
so now I actually have five.

Speaker 3 (01:00:21):
So you have a pair, I know that.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
But you always have a favorite pair. You always have
a pair that fits better than the others, regardless. This
is my favorite, the pair I have on now, my
favorite pair of.

Speaker 5 (01:00:30):
Jeans, the and But I'm washing them, so it's like
after maybe five times before, did they get washed? Y?

Speaker 9 (01:00:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:00:37):
I think I used to be every single time I wore.

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
In the water.

Speaker 3 (01:00:41):
I used to be that same guy. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:00:43):
You know, Levi says that when you buy your jeans,
you're supposed to sit in a tub of like cool
water with the jeans only. Yeah, so that that way
they really kind of conform to your body.

Speaker 3 (01:00:53):
Wow, I didn't know that when you look at.

Speaker 7 (01:00:54):
The rules from Levi Strauss, when it's not just buying
a pair of jeans and slapping them on, I'm not
gonna sitting in a tub of cool water with new genes.

Speaker 3 (01:01:02):
Do you always if you buy new jeans, do you
wash them first before you put them on?

Speaker 11 (01:01:06):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:01:06):
I don't do that either.

Speaker 3 (01:01:07):
I do that.

Speaker 7 (01:01:08):
Do wash them inside out? If they're a nice dead
blue color, and I want to keep that color for.

As long as possible. Those genes, I will turn inside.

Speaker 3 (01:01:14):
Out inside out. How often do you wash yours before
three to four time?

Speaker 9 (01:01:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
I think that's I think that most people, that's kind
of average. I think it's about three to five maybe.

Speaker 1 (01:01:25):

Speaker 3 (01:02:51):
Well sort of.

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
The participants are not actors as a fact. This is, however,
a real case that will be decided here and our
four of a cole merger court.

Speaker 3 (01:03:02):
That's right, Cobra Court brought to buy your good friend
Glenn clausmanber Clothsman Law. That's k l a U S
m an Law dot com offices right there in winter
Park four oh seven nine one seven seventeen eighteen car
crash called Clothsman.

Speaker 1 (01:03:13):
Guys good in loud for mister Glenn Clawsman.

Speaker 3 (01:03:18):
What's going on? But all again? Long break? Yeah, it
was a long break.

Speaker 1 (01:03:22):
What'd you do?

Speaker 17 (01:03:23):
Uh? It wasn't a whole lot of fun o Paris especially.
We were supposed to go on a vacation to Paris. Yes,
that's what the plan was, and then I had a
uh uh an emergency surgery. Yeah really yeah, we weren't
able to go anywhere. Yeah, how you doing that, but
I recovered one hundred percent. Yeah you look good man, Yeah,
thank you? Awfu little wait, yes, I did a little bit.

(01:03:43):
I need to lose some more.

Speaker 3 (01:03:44):
Yeah. Yeah. Is that a doctor? Everybody? Is that a
doctor's order scenarios?

Speaker 17 (01:03:48):
Probably?

Speaker 3 (01:03:49):
Probably? Probably if I talked to him and he'd say yes, yes. Uh. Now,
Usually we do a case when you come in for
people who do not know. Glenn is a personal injury
attorney specializing in car accidents. Has been a doing a
long time law work in this of that nature for
forty plus years and is one of the lawyers that
other lawyers call when they have problems they can't figure out.

(01:04:10):
He knows this law inside out quite well. He comes
in on Thursdays and usually we have a case that
we talk about, maybe a car crash that he's dealt with,
so that we can kind of get give an explanation
of how insurance companies think so that you can prepare
yourself accordingly in case you do have a crash, whether
it be the insurance that you're carrying, what you do
if you're injured in a car crash, the steps you
take right after the car crash, all of that stuff

(01:04:32):
is very important, and we know for a fact that
over the years we've saved people tens of thousands of
dollars and lifetimes of aches and pains and legal worries
as well, simply because of these directives.

Speaker 17 (01:04:43):
Yep, yep.

Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
The idea is to help people. Yeah, one hundred percent.
So you sent me something today that said you had
a case or something that made you kind of perk
up and feel like you had to do a bit
of a PSA today.

Speaker 17 (01:04:54):
Yes, absolutely right. I guess probably the way to start
it is, this case involves husband and wife who have
each their own a car, and each is registered individually
in their name, and they each have car insurance with
State Farm and they each have uninsured under insured motors coverage,
uninsured motors coverage.

Speaker 3 (01:05:13):
Let's stop you right there before we go farther. Are
they on the same policy or they have separate policies?

Speaker 17 (01:05:16):
They are on separate policies, Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:05:18):
They live in the same house and they're still married.

Speaker 17 (01:05:20):
Still married, same house.

Speaker 3 (01:05:21):
Okay.

Speaker 17 (01:05:22):
So for instance, you and Tori, yeah, you both have
your own cars, right, you're both on the same policy.
You have separate policies, same policy, same policy, and is
your car titled Jim and Tory or just Jim or man.
I think it's just Jim and okay and Jack.

Speaker 3 (01:05:39):
How about you and Naomi on State Farm?

Speaker 5 (01:05:41):
We are on Technically it's the same policy, but the
way they build me, it looks like it's different, separate policies.

Speaker 17 (01:05:49):
It may be different policies, yes.

Speaker 3 (01:05:51):
But I have you know, and her car is under
her name. My car is under my name.

Speaker 17 (01:05:56):
All right, how about you ross.

Speaker 1 (01:05:58):
Two different policies basically like we're not even dating really,
same company. Couldn't even tell you.

Speaker 3 (01:06:04):
I've never asked her who pays the pills.

Speaker 1 (01:06:07):
She pays her car insurance, and then I paid my
car insurance before you guys come at me.

Speaker 3 (01:06:11):
They're like friends.

Speaker 1 (01:06:12):
I'm also paying for you know, I help out with
the car painting.

Speaker 3 (01:06:17):
No one asks that, Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:06:19):
I just want to make sure that people don't think
I'm just a complete goose egg.

Speaker 3 (01:06:22):
I guess, well, you haven't been married that long, so
you know. Deb offers an interesting situation because she and
Chriss are yet to be married. I mean that it's
happening in April and they have what is your situation?

Speaker 7 (01:06:30):
They're living in sin Yeah, well, obviously we have separate
policies our cars under her own name, two separate companies.

Speaker 17 (01:06:40):
So what happened here is I have a client, a
young lady who her and her husband each on a car,
and they're titled registered in their individual names, and they
each go to a State farmed the same agent, and
the agent puts her in one policy and him and
another policy, and she buys twenty five thousand dollars in

(01:07:03):
uninsured motors coverage. He buys ten thousand dollars in uninsured
motors coverage. And it's their policies are what we call
non stacking. So what happens is she gets in an
accident in his car. She's injured, and we say to
State Farm, well, she has twenty five thousand dollars in
uninsured motors coverage that she's paid for under this policy.

(01:07:24):
And State Farm says, too bad, she was in his car,
and the way our policy is written, she cannot get
her twenty five thousand dollars an uninsured motors coverage. She
can only get the ten thousand dollars in his car.

Speaker 3 (01:07:39):
That can't be the case.

Speaker 17 (01:07:41):
That's the case. That's the way they wrote their policies.
That weren't the policies that way.

Speaker 3 (01:07:45):
But the policy deals with the car with the person.
You sign that as a person, the policy is on
you in your vehicle. Correct. Correct?

Speaker 17 (01:07:54):
Under all the other circumstances I've seen, that would not
be correct. However, what happened is State Farm put together
what they call an endorsement on their policy. So, but
when you when you bought this policy, it already had
the endorsement on it, and that endorsement has language that says,
if you get your your uninsured motorist, coverage does not

(01:08:14):
apply if you're in a vehicle that is not owned
by you, and it's not owned by her. She's in
her husband's.

Speaker 3 (01:08:22):
Use, so let me so his policy then transfers to her.

Speaker 17 (01:08:25):
His policy covers her because she was in his car.

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
Right. So basically the policy isn't for the person, it's
for the vehicle.

Speaker 17 (01:08:31):
Well, normally the policy goes with the personal wherever you go.
But State France policy that is covering her specifically excludes
coverage for her if she's in his vehicle that is
covered by a different policy. Is that unique to State Farm?
It is, I've never seen it with any other company.

Speaker 4 (01:08:50):
Wow, yeah, So what do you look for as a
consumer when you.

Speaker 17 (01:08:54):
Are There's two things that I you know, my personal
situation is our cars are in len and my wife's
name together. It's right, so it would be Jim or
Tory right of both vehicles. That might help the situation,
because this situation was different the way it's written. That
might help your situation. And there's no reason not to

(01:09:15):
do that, unless, of course, you know you're thinking about
getting divorced or whatever. But there's no reason not to
do that. If you pass away and the car's only
in Jim's name, then Tory's got to get that car
out of probate and she doesn't have the access to
that car right away. But if it's in Jim and
or Tory or Jim and Tory, then she has access
to it right away.

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
Why would State Farm write their policy like that? What
would be the advantage?

Speaker 7 (01:09:36):
What I mean, so then they don't have to pay
when married couples are in each other's cars.

Speaker 17 (01:09:40):
Well, it stood a benefit in this particular case. I
don't know if it saved them a couple dollars in premiums.
I have no idea.

Speaker 3 (01:09:46):
I didn't know. I didn't know if they thought by
writing it that certain way, you would offer a different
piece of coverage to the client. It would you know,
you know what I'm saying. I mean that they would
be above and beyond like what Geico or Progressive is doing.
They would offer. Maybe it was a an add on
that was a positive, but.

Speaker 17 (01:10:03):
It's less coverage. You getting less coverage. Maybe they saved
a few bucks. I didn't have the numbers to compare
it with because I didn't talk to the agent to
see what the difference would have been. But you know,
it's something that I hadn't seen, and now I see it,
and I'm saying, I look at the policy and it
looks like it's air tight. The language that we cannot
get the twenty five thousand dollars that she paid for

(01:10:24):
when she bought her policy at Stay Farm. Now, if
there was stacking coverage, then she could get it right,
so she would stack it with his vehicle. But by
having non stacking coverage that they both had, they can't
stack it.

Speaker 5 (01:10:36):
So here's a unique situation with State Farm that I
have talked to four different people with the company about
to confirm. But on a three car policy, if I
have uninsured on my car with stacking. I don't have
uninsured on the other two cars. They swear to me
those cars are covered under the uninsured motors coverage.

Speaker 17 (01:10:59):
You would be covered if you were injured in those,
But the other cars, and whose names are the other
cars in?

Speaker 3 (01:11:07):
My daughter won? My daughter and won my wife.

Speaker 17 (01:11:09):
Yeah, she's not gonna get They're not going to get
your uninsured.

Speaker 4 (01:11:11):
Motors coverage even with stacked.

Speaker 17 (01:11:14):
Because he hasn't stacked on his right. But if it's
not stacked on theirs and they get hurt, they're not
gonna be able to stack, you know, get his uninsured
motors cars are stacking, They're only going to get their own.

Speaker 3 (01:11:25):
So even if three cars are on the same policy,
you still have to specify which car has stacking, and
if you want stacking all of them, it has to
be separately for each vehicle.

Speaker 17 (01:11:33):
Well, this is dealing with this state farm situation. We're
dealing with it right now. You know, other situations, I'd
have to see what the policy language says. You know,
we used to have years and years ago uniform policies
and they would have to get approved by what we
had an insurance commissioner one time in the state of
player we don't have that anymore. So there's really the
insurance companies can write whatever they want and the policies

(01:11:54):
aren't uniform. So like like we had one one time,
long time ago with a feller named Patrick. He had
a State Farm policy that allowed us to get him
uninsured motors coverage on his motorcycle, where we would never
have been able to get that under most other Companiesah yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you know, I'm not ragging on State Farm. I'm
just saying, you know, these are the way things work.
And in that situation where Patrick, State Farm's policy was

(01:12:15):
to Patrick's benefit.

Speaker 3 (01:12:16):
So let me ask you a question then, I mean,
if you're out there listening to us right now and
your policy is a State Farm policy and you're hearing
this now, I mean, would you suggest that people who
have State Farm as their carrier call them and ask
them if this is the same scenario and what they
can do to change it outside of changing titles to
cars or you know that kind of thing.

Speaker 17 (01:12:35):
The easiest suggestion is get stacking uninsured motors coverage on
both both vehicles. That's the easiest suggestion. It's going to
cost you a little bit more money, but that's the
easiest suggestion. And then whether or not putting the title
to the cars in the in husband or wife's name,
using the word or in the middle or and in the.

Speaker 4 (01:12:52):
Middle, does that matter?

Speaker 7 (01:12:54):
You know, because I know as an attorney, you know
that grammar is everything.

Speaker 4 (01:12:59):
It is can change the tone and meaning exactly.

Speaker 7 (01:13:03):
Is it better to use or or is it better
to use And is there a more responsibility with using
the word and than is there with the.

Speaker 17 (01:13:11):
Word or most situations probably not, but I'm sure there
are situations would make it would make a difference. But
I mean, if the example I gave you, if the
husband passes away and the car is only in his name,
the wife has to.

Speaker 3 (01:13:25):
Go through probate to get it right. Now, what about
underage kids in your house. Let's say you have a
sixteen or seventeen year old that's driving. Is the same scenario.
You need to make sure that that particular vehicle is
in also an and or or situation with one of
the parents, or is it more advantageous to have that
vehicle be solely in the young person's No, well.

Speaker 17 (01:13:44):
That's a great, great question. Well, you know, I don't
think you can put a vehicle in a young person
that's a minor. I think that'd be at least eighteen
to be able to have ownership of the vehicle. But
if both parents sign for the if both parents are
ready their owners of the vehicle, then both parents could
be liable if the child gets in a bad accident

(01:14:04):
and there's not enough insurance coverage to cover it. Let's
say they cause a catastrophic injury to someone and you
don't have enough insurance to cover it. The lawyer for
the person who's catastrophically injured could go after the individual
who the car is registered to. So I have it
said one name versus both names. It's better in that
situation for them not being able to go after both people,

(01:14:27):
only go after one.

Speaker 4 (01:14:29):
How soon after you get married? Should you do this?

Speaker 1 (01:14:31):
Do it right away?

Speaker 17 (01:14:33):
Right away? Right away?

Speaker 3 (01:14:34):
Why not do it on the way home from the courthouse?

Speaker 15 (01:14:37):
Why?

Speaker 17 (01:14:37):
Why you know shop around for insurances?

Speaker 3 (01:14:41):
You should do that anyway? Right?

Speaker 10 (01:14:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 17 (01:14:43):
I mean, somebody told me this is a website called
I think it's called Zebra. I'm sure a listener can
call in and say what it is. Where you can
shop all different insurances to the best rates.

Speaker 3 (01:14:51):
How often do you think you should do that.

Speaker 17 (01:14:53):
I've heard yearly, probably should every time the policies getting
set to renew.

Speaker 1 (01:14:57):
One because they take advantage of the easy email of
like auto pay. Hey, this is what it is, and
it does take effort and critical thought to go ahead
and shop for insurance companies. And these companies know that.

Speaker 3 (01:15:10):
Yeah, I've also I actually oddly enough just read recently
that you know that should be a year or every
two year scenario. And it's the only way you can
guarantee that you're getting the best rates out there. Because
you're making that you're forcing the company to compete. If
you're just kind of re upping, like Ross said, you're
not really competing in the market.

Speaker 5 (01:15:27):
I found every couple of years it's worthwhile doing.

Speaker 3 (01:15:30):
And it's the Zebra dot com. The Zebra dot com,
And what do you do when you go to the
Zebra dot com if.

Speaker 1 (01:15:36):
You got to ask, you can't find it.

Speaker 3 (01:15:37):
You just type in your situation. It gives you the
best possibility. I mean, I understanding, it gives you a
bunch of different options. Well, let me ask you then,
because this is also very important because a lot of
people out there are a lot of insurance companies Some
of them are built for people who maybe don't have
such great driving records. Some are built for people who
have really good driving records. You know, is you know
when you go to search and you start looking, are

(01:15:58):
there is there a bar that you should only do
company business with companies like above that bar? Like, you know,
do you kind of understand what I'm saying, Ico, Progressive
State Farm?

Speaker 17 (01:16:08):
Then it goes to the next line, right, those are
all standard companies, yes, And then there's what we call
non standard companies. And when I see an accident involving
a non standard company, my guess is they don't have
insurance to pay resumos injuries because they're.

Speaker 3 (01:16:19):
Just getting whatever it takes to get them on the road.

Speaker 17 (01:16:21):
Yep, yep. It's sometimes people that have bad driving records,
and because they have bad driving records, that cost so
much more to get insurance, and that's why they're going
with non standards and yep, yep.

Speaker 3 (01:16:32):
Another thing I.

Speaker 17 (01:16:33):
Know every week I get in the mail from some
insurance company telling me, you know, I could do better
with that insurance company. I'm sure everybody gets there, sure,
y yeah, And you know, maybe I want to check
it out, and I'm just too busy, and I think
most people are in the same situation. But check it out.

Speaker 5 (01:16:48):
A couple of text messages on the difference between end
and or when it comes to two names on a
title of a car. If it's and, you need both
signatures when it comes time to trade, sell, or do
anything with the vehicle. If it's or, only one of
the signatures is required.

Speaker 3 (01:17:05):
H I remember that because I remember my mom was
on my original title of the very first car I had,
and that very thing had to happen because it was
an and not an OR. And I remember I had
to drive all the way back to Polack to get
her signature on that to sell my little truck when
I first moved to town because it didn't have the
ore on there it was. And that's annoying.

Speaker 7 (01:17:26):
Amazingly enough, I just got a text from Selane who
said that when he tried to deposit all of their
wedding checks, because people put Chris and the name of
his wife, he couldn't do it because the bank said.

Speaker 4 (01:17:38):
Well, your wife has to be here, absolutely right.

Speaker 7 (01:17:40):
Only one person put Chris or and his wife and
he was able to deposit.

Speaker 17 (01:17:44):
Actually, if they both signed, it'll be okay, yeah, but yeah,
yeah know the one I get mostake anyway that matter. Yeah, Simon,
I think the easiest solution is if you have non
stacking coverage, switch it to stacking coverage and you won't
have to worry about all this stuff and you'll have
much better coverage than you have right now.

Speaker 3 (01:17:59):
Right. Another thing is this, I mean, one cool thing
about having Glenn on your side is you are welcome
to call him at any time if you have questions
about your policy, like that you're scared that you're not
making the right decisions. Glenn will take your phone call
and he'll give you a little heads up once you
explain your situation of what you should be doing. And
I will tell you that's a that's a service people
should use because you know, again this is where he

(01:18:19):
specializes and if this is where he spent a lot
of years of his life kind of learning about this law,
and you should take advantage of that. I know I do.

Speaker 17 (01:18:26):
Yeah, It's basic stuff for me, So I don't mind.

Speaker 9 (01:18:28):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:18:29):
By the way, I want to tell you something I
was we were talking to Ray on Monday, and I
feel compelled to tell you this as well because your

You are in Orange County.

Speaker 1 (01:21:13):
I'm in Orange County.

Speaker 3 (01:21:14):
You are in Seminole County. I am Deborah and I
live in Lake County. Today the Florida stilly who did this?
I want to say it was FHP or the state
data released that they were over three hundred and fifty
eight thousand crashes statewide in Florida car crashes. That is,

(01:21:35):
believe it or not, that's a figure that's been steadily
dropping since twenty twenty one. But three thousand of those
crashes turned out to be fatal. They were fatalities there,
all right. So the question here today is what they
did is they gave you the ten deadliest Florida counties
for car crashes and the ten safest counties for car

(01:21:55):
crashes in the state of Florida, and one of us
here is represented by living in one of the safest
counties to drive in the entire state of Florida.

Speaker 1 (01:22:07):
I'm so happy it's me. It's got to be him.

Speaker 3 (01:22:10):
You think it's gotta be Siminold County. Well we live
in Lake County, Dude. You are people more rural, but
you the meth is made stop it. Yeah, that's why
they drive fast. That's them.

Speaker 1 (01:22:20):
It's uh, well, you know, I thought you just showed
your cards there a little bit by saying one of
us is in the county.

Speaker 3 (01:22:25):
Yeah, well, it's either you or Jack, right.

Speaker 1 (01:22:28):
And I don't think it's me in Orlando.

Speaker 3 (01:22:30):
Well, you're right, it's Jack. Siminold County is the safest
county in all of Florida to drive your vehicle in.

Speaker 1 (01:22:38):
I'm in your web of lies, ye.

Speaker 3 (01:22:41):
As a parent of a daughter who drives at me. Yeah, yeah,
per capita. Siminold County is the safest. Call your county.
Isn't that the Naples area there or yeah? That is
the second safest, Sarasota Leon County, which is Tallahassee Santa Rosa,
which I believe is also up in the Panhandle, debbers,
right up in the area there Penelas, of course, that's

(01:23:02):
the Tampa Era, a Tampa area, Manite, Miami, Dade, Clay,
and Palm Beach.

Speaker 5 (01:23:06):
And we knew there was no chance it was Lake
County given the fact that just the two of you
drive in Lake.

Speaker 1 (01:23:12):
County bats out of hell.

Speaker 15 (01:23:14):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:23:14):
You guys, are you create road range Lake?

Speaker 3 (01:23:17):
Actually it's a funny Deborah and I drag racing down
the road where it's like a thirty five milion hour
speed limit to get to the stop line fast enough.
The deadliest counties in Florida are kind of wild, and
I can only assume it's because of the per capita thing, right,
because if your county has, like, you know, forty thousand
people and you have three crashes, it's way different than
if you have that many crashes in Orange County. Hamilton

(01:23:40):
County was the most dangerous county to drive in in
the state of Florida, followed by Lafayette, Glades, Swanee, Levy, Dixie, Columbia,
Gadzenden and Franklin and Jefferson. And I'm telling you every
one of those counties I believe is up in the
Panhandle in that area left of Tallahassee going toward Alabama,
like that entire grouping is where that is.

Speaker 1 (01:24:01):
I would think Collier County's up on that list solely
off of those police officers barely have to do anything
out in Naples, Florida. So that was the whole thing
that I was told, is that they're always boards.

Speaker 3 (01:24:13):
They're going to pull you up, and it's a lot
of you know, a lot of retirees. For one thing,
they're not driving a whole bunch, and when they do,
they're not going fast anywhere they go. You know.

Speaker 1 (01:24:22):
I was always terrified to speed when I lived in Naples, Florida,
when I was going to high school.

Speaker 3 (01:24:26):
And I kind of wondered why this was the case
for Seminole because and then I started thinking, well, Seminole
has the least when it comes to the counties, Don't
they have the least amount of toll roads that go
through that county?

Speaker 1 (01:24:37):
Oh, I don't know about that. For twenty nine, for
seventeen seventeen, that's it some of I four yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:24:44):
In the express of nine four. So who but Lake
County has the four twenty nine, the four to seventeen,
the four or fourteen, not the four fourteen because it
ends right there and Pour seventeen doesn't reach in twenty
seven h Pour seventeen doesn't reach it doesn't four twenty nine.

Speaker 5 (01:24:59):
It's all four tony. Yeah, but it's almost like the
same road. Yeah, it's just four twenty nine four seventeen.
Fewer people in Seminole County. That's kind of wild though,
because Simonal County also has four thirty six. It goes
in front of the Altamot Mall, which is the very
worst intersection in all of Orlando.

Speaker 3 (01:25:15):
I think.

Speaker 1 (01:25:15):
However, we're a bedroom community.

Speaker 3 (01:25:17):
Yeah, okay, thanks.

Speaker 5 (01:25:18):
It's also it's one of the safest counties for just
you know, the low crime as well.

Speaker 3 (01:25:22):
I love living in great education. Yeah, yeah, I agree
with that people. I love living in Seminole County.

Speaker 1 (01:25:29):
I've never been able to tell virtually any county that
I've lived in and like on the difference, I just
go home. Maybe that's just me.

Speaker 3 (01:25:37):
I don't know. Well, I mean certain counties like one
of the things for Seminole County and you know, and
under the Brevard has this, and uh and uh, what's
some of the other Space Coast counties. Barvard what's the
other one evolution that's it. Yeah, you know those counties,
but you know in Seminole County, you know, it's also
a very environmentally conscious county. Uh, their commission up there

(01:25:57):
really fights hard to keep those wet lands and those
areas there as pristine as possible. And let me tell
you what, they have literally sword battled developers for the
last twenty five or thirty years that want that land
out there. That's very premium land to build on. They
want it bad. Yeah, door Worth is just where it begins.
There have been a number of people who have tried
very very hard, use a lot of influence politically trying

(01:26:18):
to extand expand that land and then they sue them.

Speaker 5 (01:26:21):
Yeah, sue the county and we had a fight just
to keep the lad protected.

Speaker 3 (01:26:25):
That's exactly right. And it happens a lot out in
the Kasimi area, which is the that is Osciola County
as well. Right that that's where that whole uh what
was that white oak thing happened out there?

Speaker 1 (01:26:36):
Right?

Speaker 3 (01:26:37):
Yeah, So you know it's one of those things where
each county has its own little staple of what they stand.

Speaker 1 (01:26:42):
For a little bit. Seminal is the more Aaron Brockovich
out of the bunch.

Speaker 3 (01:26:46):
I think it's one of the more environmentally conscious kind
of areas. We have a lot of sensitive areas in
Simoneo County, a right, with some water issues. Yeah, yeah, good,
pretty good call there.

Speaker 17 (01:26:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:26:57):
But it's the only county the river runs through, right. Yeah,
I love that. I mean, yeah, yeah, I think it is.
Isn't it? I would? I don't know. I know the
river does, aren't there? I don't know. He goes in evolution.
But what I'm saying is for us here locally with
the Trike County area, I think Simonel County is the
only one that has that. I mean, you guys have
at lea kount as well.

Speaker 1 (01:27:13):
Yeah, but you're like the county shaman or something. Dude,
You're like the guru of county policies over here, the
ultimate decider of the personalities.

Speaker 3 (01:27:22):
But who me?

Speaker 1 (01:27:23):
Yeah, of these counties, Jim, let's not gloss over that.
This is average county information and knowledge. Okay, dunking on this,
I'm learning a lot. Okay, I didn't know seminoles all
clean and all green and filled with a bunch of
Jack Bradshaw.

Speaker 3 (01:27:38):
He dead knows a lot about Lake County because every
time we talk about it, like when the mics are
off and stuff, she tells me stuff like, you know,
because she's lived out there way longer than I have.
And of course, you know why does she got to
keep it secret? Does can't tell all of us do anything.
It's the dirt, isn't it. Yeah? We have county out there,
like Lake County?

Speaker 16 (01:27:54):
Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, I like Mount Dora.

Speaker 7 (01:28:00):
You're driving a lot of areas of Lake County. You're like, oh,
car doesn't break down.

Speaker 3 (01:28:05):
You've got that cabinet door.

Speaker 1 (01:28:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah, let me close that back.

Speaker 3 (01:28:10):
Yeah yeah, I mean Blusha's a cool county. I mean,
I Barvard's a beautiful county. I mean that's nicer there. Like,
here are the things that I know that I like
about my county. You're an Orange county.

Speaker 1 (01:28:24):
I don't know anything about my county outside of that.
I like living in it.

Speaker 3 (01:28:28):
It's chill.

Speaker 1 (01:28:29):
I like how my mayor of the county, you're the
blue dot, has the cool voice. He's awesome demans. I
like when I get those press conferences coming in super
basy I for for weight do that a lot?

Speaker 3 (01:28:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:28:48):
Express pass always makes me think about how the rich
got off the Titanic, and that's that's all. That's all
I know about Orange County. Unfortunately, I like I guess
I know some of the commissioners.

Speaker 3 (01:29:03):
I don't think many people probably know much about their county.
I think maybe some of the older members of the
county have been who have lived in a certain county
for a while, probably know a little bit about it.
I only know because of the job. I mean, if
I didn't have this job, I probably wouldn't pay attention
to the minutia of what counties offer, or what they're
up against or what they're dealing with.

Speaker 1 (01:29:21):
Like do you know any different tax codes in between
the three big counties here in central Florida.

Speaker 3 (01:29:27):
I know that for the longest time, I think Orange
is caught up. But for the longest time, Seminole County
had higher sales tax than other counties around. We were
the first to raise our sales tax to seven percent,
right Jack yep. And then I think Orange County came
behind that and did the same thing. I know that
our a Siminole County school system is very good. They
have some really good schools, Lake Brantley, Ovido, Lake Howell,

(01:29:49):
Winter Springs High. Those are all very good schools. That's dope.
Yeah yeah, Orange County is cool though, I mean, Orange
County's fine. Just too many people, man, I lived in there,
when I lived in Baldwin, that was it.

Speaker 1 (01:30:01):
Well, there's a lot of people in Baldwin. Yeah no,
but I mean yeah, yeah, oh god am mighty yeahs
of high.

Speaker 3 (01:30:06):
Let me tell you something, man. You know, I do
the real estate thing, right, and I buy and we
buy these houses. You know, we've heard. I moved out
of Baldwin a park and I had nothing to do
with like a real estate deal. That was one of
the only places that we bought that we moved out
of with no intention of really doing that. Like, I
just got sick of the people, so we moved. Yeah.

(01:30:27):
I just couldn't stand being that close to that many people.
There were so much noise all the time. It was
really tough for me to live there. For some reason,
I just didn't care for it all. I remember coming
home one day and saying, Honey, we got to get
the hell out of here. We had to go somewhere
where it's a lot less quiet.

Speaker 1 (01:30:40):
You learned a lot about yourself via Baldwin Park.

Speaker 3 (01:30:43):
I did you know we had a kid that moved
in just right before we left that you know, of
these big trucks with loud pipes and come roll around
the corner three or four times a night in the
middle of the night, just you know, revving it up
and stuff the soccer practice people across the street and everything.

Speaker 7 (01:30:55):
Well, what about the neighbor with the little dog that
you sit on the patio and bark starking its six
o'clock morning.

Speaker 3 (01:31:01):
You mean the pair of Corki's that the guy didn't
want to hear barking in his house, so we put
him on his back porch, which was also our back porch.

Speaker 1 (01:31:06):
Basically a thousand dollars in Halloween candy you'd have to
give out each year, all of that, right. My personal
favorite thing that happened at Baldon Park is when you
took a photo of a girl in and they're a
halloween out there. Oh my god, that's looking the way
you do? What does that mean? I just to go
on though about Baldwin Park. Why'd you move that? No,
I didn't.

Speaker 3 (01:31:25):
It wasn't because of that. But my wife and I
were talking about real estate the other day and some
of the moves we've made, and you know, and kind
of just go kind of kind of looking back at
some of the moves and stuff and trying to figure
out if we've made the best deals and stuff. And
she goes, uh, I go, you know what, I wonder
what our Baldwin Park condo is worth right now? And
I made a giant mistake.

Speaker 1 (01:31:46):
Corkis aren't so bad?

Speaker 3 (01:31:47):
No, I went online and found out, Yeah, and it
was dumb. What a dumb thing to do, What a
dumb thing to do. That's so stupid that I mean,
it was a big mistake. It was a big mistake
moving out of there. Uh, just dumb.

Speaker 1 (01:32:02):
So yeah, but if you know even the money you made.

Speaker 3 (01:32:07):
No, dude, it's gross.

Speaker 1 (01:32:09):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:32:10):
But the problem is also I looked at the homeowners
association fees in that place, and that is beyond you
can't even believe it. The homeowners association at Baldwin Park
is more than my first mortgage was just the homeowners association.

Speaker 5 (01:32:21):
What's kind of cool is you saved us for the
past seven years of having to hear you complain about that.

Speaker 3 (01:32:27):
Yeah, all right, I.

Speaker 1 (01:32:29):
Mean that's such a hard problem though, because you go, like,
oh man, that's so we could have made a little
bit more money on this Baldwin Park property. It's a lot, yeah,
but it's also a lot of mental health.

Speaker 3 (01:32:42):
Yeah. I mean for any amount, I couldn't have stayed there,
you know, because I just couldn't have it. Crazy. You
see what I'm saying. You don't like make mistakes like that, dude,
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:32:52):
Would you have stuck it out?

Speaker 16 (01:32:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:32:55):
I mean ross to say, maybe it wasn't a mistake
because of your deteriorating mental health.

Speaker 3 (01:33:01):
More more rapidation than it currently is.

Speaker 1 (01:33:04):
You probably would have grand terinoed somebody in the neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (01:33:08):
Man, I was so close so many times. You have
no idea? All right? Four O seven six, I made
the handgun click click. You could probably be in jail
and your wife would have all that money.

Speaker 1 (01:33:20):
Yeah, maybe she has the regret.

Speaker 3 (01:33:22):
All right? Got I got one of the I am
the a hole questions for your next from Redd at Hanglers.

Speaker 2 (01:33:27):
Today is Cooler Cooler with Ross paget presented by mills Air.
Turned to the experts at Carrier and turn to the
experts at mills are dot com.

Speaker 19 (01:33:42):
This is a Disney driver. Could you do me a
favorite panelas is not Tampa. Panela's county is Saint Pete
Kill Water Hillsborough County.

Speaker 3 (01:33:53):
You're right, Tampa, You're right, buddy. Just I'm sorry I
left a board. I'm sorry, but you're right. Apology. I
do it all the time. Thanks, thank you.

Speaker 13 (01:34:07):
So I have a questioned my estate planning. I'm a
married man, been married for many years, and he told
us to make sure that our cars were titled in
our individual names and.

Speaker 4 (01:34:17):
Not both of our names, because should there be.

Speaker 13 (01:34:20):
An accident in a lawsuit, by doing it individually, they
could not go after our combined assets. They could only
go after our individual assets, which are very limited because
we combined everything. Does that make sense?

Speaker 3 (01:34:33):
M Yeah. Also sounds like whoever gave you that advice.

Speaker 1 (01:34:38):
Didn't really believe in your love. It may have been.

Speaker 3 (01:34:43):
It wasn't about then separating.

Speaker 5 (01:34:45):
It was about an accident to one or the other protecting.

Speaker 3 (01:34:48):
The other person. All right, seven to seven zero three
one that say you text us if you'd like to
send a talk back like our friends there, you can
do the same thing. It's easy and free. Grab the
iHeartRadio app good Real Radio and use that Mike to
send your comment to Jack and we'll get you on there.

Speaker 1 (01:35:01):
I'm Jim dev Is.

Speaker 3 (01:35:02):
Here, Hello Jack, what's going on?

Speaker 1 (01:35:04):
And Sauces here as well. It's true.

Speaker 3 (01:35:06):
We'll be get some thoughts here and just a bit.
We also have trivia coming up, another four pack of
tickets to Monster Jam that includes a pit pass. We
do that in about fifteen or twenty. All right, So
this am I the a hole from Reddit is a
little sad. But hang loose through the sadness for the
story part, all right, because I think it poses an

(01:35:26):
interesting question.

Speaker 1 (01:35:28):
So let's just get sad now before we hear it.
Get it out of the legs.

Speaker 3 (01:35:31):
Right, It's not that bad. I mean, it's just like
one of those It's just a scenario, right, guy says,
I'm twenty six years old. It's a male, right. His
girlfriend unfortunately passed away from complications during childbirth, all right,
leaving him to raise their daughter on his own. Not
something he expected or prepared for. Who could right at

(01:35:53):
twenty six years old? H you assume the woman's probably
under thirty. You know, we had a horrifying situation. I
read the story. It really it got me a little bit. Right.
It says that in the first few weeks, I handled
what needed to be handled. I made medical decisions, took
care of the funeral, made sure that my daughter was safe.
Pretty quickly, though, realized that I was trying to do
everything on my own while grieving, and it wasn't sustainable,

(01:36:16):
wasn't sleeping, head wasn't clear, and I wasn't going to
pretend that quote pushing through automatically made me a better father.
My girlfriend's parents, however, stepped in and offered to care
for my daughter temporarily so that they could he could
get back on his feet. They're stable, their experience, and
they're deeply invested in their grandchild. She's been with him

(01:36:36):
for a while now and she's thriving. I'm still involved
and I visit regularly, contributed financially, and I have say
in decisions, but the day to day responsibility isn't on
me right now. The longer this goes on, the more
I've had to be honest with myself. I love my daughter,
but I'm not sure I'm in the best position to

(01:36:57):
be a full time single parent, at least not anytime soon.
Her grandparents can give her consistency, built in support system,
and a calm home that I cannot fully offer Right now,
I've started thinking about whether or not giving them full
custody might be the actual answer for my situation and
my granddaughter's situation. This wouldn't be about disappearing. It would

(01:37:20):
be of a legal arrangement to give her stability. Why
I continue to be present and support it. A lot
of people are saying this makes him a bad dad,
that a real dad would never ever think about giving
up custody of their child. Others say it's better to
choose what's best for the child rather than holding onto
a role that you're not ready to fulfill. I'm not
running from a responsibility, he says. I'm trying to make

(01:37:42):
a clear headed decision about my daughter's future, not my pride.

Speaker 1 (01:37:47):
Okay, So the one thing that I just can't styll
make is right there at the end of him saying,
I'm not running away from the responsibility. You are. You
can make your responsibility better. Why you shouldn't quit. You
don't have to go quitting. I'm off rip now.

Speaker 3 (01:38:09):
He's not quitting. She's basically you know, she's living with
the grandparents. He has regular contact Caesar all the time,
is present at events, so the wires finances. So then
why are we.

Speaker 1 (01:38:19):
Trying to go full custody all of a sudden Because
that sounds like somebody who is trying to get full
custody of their kid and have them be have a
father in their life.

Speaker 3 (01:38:29):
Yeah. When I read this the first time, the first
thing I thought to myself was, why can't you just
drop the kid off at the grandparents like anybody else
would when they're using their grandparents or their grandparents offer
to offer assistance to raise the kid while you're working,
Why not just do that bat In fact, my in
law grandparents did that very thing for myself and my

(01:38:49):
first wife while we were continuing on our careers for
both of our children.

Speaker 7 (01:38:55):
My fear is that what is he thinking that when
he's everything is stable, he's just going to walk into
her life and all of a sudden become a father.
It sounds like he's trying to get the best of
both worlds.

Speaker 3 (01:39:07):
Yep, because the day to day is really what matters, right,
because when you walk in to put the child to bed,
it's gonna be Grandpa, it's gonna be grandma. It's not
gonna be dad. Dad's not gonna be there for that.

Speaker 7 (01:39:16):
And that's going to be I think, create confusion for
the child because who is this dad.

Speaker 3 (01:39:20):
He's an uncle at best, exactly and exactly and that's
what he's saying. So my thing like, when I read this,
I'm like, look, man, if you're gonna do this, you
got to get out of the picture.

Speaker 4 (01:39:30):
Custody basically says that.

Speaker 3 (01:39:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:39:32):
What I'm saying is if what he says, they have
the grand people responsible have the right over what's best
for this child, and they can decide how much the
father would be involved in their lives.

Speaker 3 (01:39:44):
But I think more love is.

Speaker 5 (01:39:46):
Better than less, and if he can be a contributing
role model and good you know, father figure in her life,
he can have a positive impact on her. But this
seems to me he she's just shirking responsibility.

Speaker 3 (01:40:02):
Yeah, because I mean you have to consider, you know
that the child is eventually going to become kind of
cognizant of what's going on, and man, there's gonna be
a lot of questions. I mean, you know, you you
have to admit that the kid is going to go
well you know why, dad?

Speaker 4 (01:40:14):
I mean, can I go with you?

Speaker 3 (01:40:16):
I've got friends at school whose dads do this why
can't you. You know, I've got friends at school and
then divorce dads and their single dads and they take
care of their their kids. I mean, my friend Susie her,
she's it's just her and her and her dad, and
who does mine?

Speaker 5 (01:40:29):
I think Ross can speak to it after two years,
the difference a child in your life makes.

Speaker 3 (01:40:35):
I mean, we know.

Speaker 5 (01:40:36):
It's night and day as far as where your priorities are.
It's being home, it's not going out. And it sounds
like this guy's not ready to buy into.

Speaker 1 (01:40:45):
That and the whole Like if let's play a quick
role play, because it almost sounds a little harsh, but.

Speaker 3 (01:40:51):
I still feel like I can justify why I.

Speaker 1 (01:40:53):
Think he's avoiding this responsibility is that I will give
you the grace that you are now a widow. You're
your partner, your wife, the mother of your child has
passed away, and you should be given as much time
as possible, especially if you have grandparents like that in
the corner. But the second you give up custody, like yeah, dude,
you burned down the ships, it's you gave up right,

(01:41:17):
Yeah you can still you will get as much grace
as I can possibly give someone for that scenario except
for quitting. And you can tell me that like, yeah,
but he will still be part of the life. But
giving up custody is the wrong direction. That's the wrong
formula for this recipe. If you ask me if you
can be there, you should try your absolute best, and

(01:41:40):
if your best is short, we can still make your
best better. He's twenty six, then that's even twenty six
years old.

Speaker 3 (01:41:49):
That's even better.

Speaker 1 (01:41:49):
He's got a whole.

Speaker 4 (01:41:50):
Bunch off enough to make a baby.

Speaker 3 (01:41:52):
No, No, I got that. I mean, you know that's
you know, that's way younger. But what I'm saying is,
you know what I'm saying is consider the twenty six
year old mentality and what he's thinking there.

Speaker 1 (01:42:01):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (01:42:02):
Yeah, that you were weren't you around that age when
your kids were born?

Speaker 3 (01:42:05):
No, I mean, I think this guy's a joke. I mean,
you you got a man up, dude. That's your responsibility.
You made that child. It's your child, is it's not
mom on Papa's child. That is your child.

Speaker 1 (01:42:14):
And I have nothing wrong with any amount of time
with the grandparents being high or low due to the tragedy.
It's just the custody thing.

Speaker 3 (01:42:24):
Right, yeah, and he heads that he's just considering it.
I think this is really kind of a reach out.
This is almost like a litmus test for how I
think what he's doing is, he's like doing a litmus
tests of how the general public is going to feel
about a decision like that and hoping that that kind
of applies to his inner circle.

Speaker 5 (01:42:39):
I bet, what if this child is better off as
a better home environment with the grandparents then with him.

Speaker 3 (01:42:48):
How could you know that could be the case?

Speaker 9 (01:42:50):
Though?

Speaker 1 (01:42:50):
And that's why I'm he's even saying it.

Speaker 3 (01:42:53):
Yeah, but I mean, I mean, like I mean, when
you met Ross the very first time, when you said,
did you first thing you thought to yourself? This guy,
he's a child. I knew it'd be a great dad.

Speaker 1 (01:43:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:43:02):
I knew that out of the gate.

Speaker 1 (01:43:04):
Just not right at that time.

Speaker 3 (01:43:05):
Right, That's what I'm saying. I'm sorry you doubted him
for so long.

Speaker 1 (01:43:09):
But at twenty six, I don't look at that as
a bad thing or uh he was a young naive things, right.
I look at it as a pro because that means
he's got roughly probably like six years to fully understand. Yeah,
at twenty six, you send your custody out. I would
put any amount of money that I have by thirty
you regret it.

Speaker 3 (01:43:29):
And think about this when you know you're twenty six
years old. Eventually you will start dating again. You know,
you imagine telling that story to somebody that you plan
on having a relationship with. Deb How would that hit
you if you met somebody and you you went on
a couple of dates and like third date, they dropped
this bomb on you that oh yeah, by the way,
this happened to me, and you know, I thought it
was best for my in laws to have custody of

(01:43:52):
my daughter.

Speaker 7 (01:43:53):
I was not going to own a home together, not
gonna have a pet together, not gonna have a child together.
Because it just sounds like he's shure a responsibility. You know,
it is tragic what happened to him. Like Jack said,
with more love, you know, he can incorporate all of
these family members who want to help him get through
this rough time and help lift him up and take
care of the baby while he's at work, while he's

(01:44:15):
not spending twelve fifteen thousand dollars a year on childcare.
But to just say, hey, it's best for you if
I just give custody, it makes me wonder how involved
he really wanted to be a father in the beginning,
And dude.

Speaker 3 (01:44:27):
You're one thousand percent right, Like who wouldn't want to
help somebody in this scenario.

Speaker 4 (01:44:31):
But he's a young widower of course.

Speaker 3 (01:44:33):
You know, like I could have just a like a
like a friend on the side that had a situation
like this, I would feel like I needed to pitch
in because of the horrible nature of the scenario, you
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:44:42):
Yeah, I know one way of getting rid of all
of that help is by getting rid of yeah, the kid. Yeah,
that's how you start stop getting that type of help
and that type of grace and that type of sympathy.

Speaker 3 (01:44:55):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, where do you think the audience
falls on this? Like, you know, if you were, like
if you guys to text in seven seven zero three one,
I would love to hear, like, you know, like you
could do a simple yes or no type thing just
to get an idea if like, cause I think I
don't think like Jack's mentality is that far off. I mean,
you could make an argument that the child may be
way better off, but the parents are grandparents, which means

(01:45:16):
you don't know how much how long they're going to
be around for the child. By the time the kids
maybe twenty twenty one years old, well, you know, the
grandparents are going to be part of the picture anymore.
And does the does the child look at the dad
with respect considering what's happened.

Speaker 5 (01:45:28):
Tape in mind that they're the daughter that they lost.
The mother of the child I am was in her twenties, yes,
so they may be in their forties or early fifties,
so yeah, not that old.

Speaker 7 (01:45:40):
Yeah, somebody did text us at seven seven zero three one.
If you were eight seventeen or eighteen, I might understand,
but twenty six, No, you're a damn adult.

Speaker 4 (01:45:49):
Act like it.

Speaker 3 (01:45:50):
Yeah, yeah, interesting case, man. When I read this. When
I read this, I was like, God, that is unreal.

Speaker 9 (01:45:56):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:45:56):
There are definitely parents out there where you're like, you
you just see the kid and you're like, that kid's
going to have a hard life because of that person
right there. And if leaving this kid with the grandparents
is going to be a better life for the kid,
then I think.

Speaker 3 (01:46:14):
We should all want that.

Speaker 5 (01:46:16):
But it's you want the guy to step up and
want to be the committed best dad he can be
and not a reluctant dad, which would later grow resentment
towards the kid as he's trying to date or live
his life right, and then that being a negative influence
on that child, a life full of dealing with that trauma,

(01:46:39):
making the gid for like their a burden.

Speaker 7 (01:46:40):
Yeah, at this point, he's really being a father. He's
not being a dad.

Speaker 3 (01:46:45):
Yeah, just providing.

Speaker 7 (01:46:47):
I mean, he's the one who helped bring her into
the world, but he's not being a dad.

Speaker 1 (01:46:52):
And I mean to Jack's point, because the whole argument
of like, if we could unequivocally say, like, yeah, the
kid has a better life for grandparents, but unfortunately Minority
Report is a movie.

Speaker 3 (01:47:04):
We don't have pre cogs in the back. We can
only go, oh, buddy.

Speaker 1 (01:47:12):
Say, I guess I would be okay. I shouldn't say okay,
but I would be more in favor of this individual
at twenty six if he came out and said I'm
an addict.

Speaker 3 (01:47:24):
Yeah, that's what a lot of people are texting saying that.

Speaker 1 (01:47:27):
That's different than I am not in the headspace.

Speaker 3 (01:47:31):
He does not write like an addict. I mean, I'm
not saying that you can't be a good writer, but
I mean you know the context of this is really
well written, Like you know, the person really knows how
to communicate, So I mean, I think they have some intellect.

Speaker 1 (01:47:43):
But that's a different scenario than this. When I see
a child who just lost their mom and the number
one thing that child is gonna need is the other parent.

Speaker 3 (01:47:54):
And if that parent is able.

Speaker 1 (01:47:56):
In the sense of not addict of sound mind of
just I know you're going through it. You have help,
You have an entire community. It takes a village. You
have a great village. It sounds like with those grandparents. Yeah,
it doesn't just have to be on your shoulders, but
it doesn't all have to be on somebody else's.

Speaker 3 (01:48:12):
And it never He never mentions his parents or any
other family members either.

Speaker 11 (01:48:17):
No.

Speaker 7 (01:48:17):
Another person texted us and said, at the age of
twenty one, I was a full time single parent of
a beautiful little girl. In no way was I prepared
to be a parent little to no family support. I
did what every man should do and manned up and
raised my beautiful little girl.

Speaker 4 (01:48:32):
And you know what, twenty one.

Speaker 5 (01:48:33):
If he commits to being that dad, gets takes ex uses,
his custody, takes control of this situation. Five years from
now he might be appalled by the post he made.

Speaker 3 (01:48:47):
Yeah, yeah, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:48:48):
Once he makes that connection, but you know, I don't
know what the level of bond is he has, or yeah,
there's so much more you're wondering about, what's this guy's life,
truly like yeah, yeah, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:48:59):
The funny thing, as Ross pointed this out immediately, and
you know, I've said it for a long time, it's
not what people tell you, it's what they don't tell
you that they should be telling you. That that makes
it interesting. He mentions, like not running or not abandoning
or that mentality. He mentions it three times in the story.
He says it three times. Yeah, I'm not running himself.

Speaker 1 (01:49:20):
Feel better.

Speaker 3 (01:49:20):
I'm not running, you know, I'm not I'm not skirting
my responsibility. He says it a number of times in
the context of the story. And anybody will tell you
usually when that's the case, you do feel like you're
doing that.

Speaker 1 (01:49:31):
Yeah, I mean that there are situations that I think
you should run away from your responsibility. This is not
one of them. Because on the other line, as a
child and yours right right right, and that's the number
one almighty reason to full stop to stop what you're
doing and go love and take care. And you know,

(01:49:52):
this child is never going to know their mom. They
won't know anything about their mother. They only parent they
will know is dad, I mean, because you know, and
then grandparents. But the only actual parent will be Pop.
That's it.

Speaker 3 (01:50:04):
And somebody texted earlier said, well, the kid's gonna lose
mom and dad.

Speaker 7 (01:50:08):
Someone else texted in and said, not to sound insensitive,
but what role did he think he was going to
play in his child's life?

Speaker 3 (01:50:15):
Right? It's a very good point. It is a very
good point because don't worry about dating.

Speaker 7 (01:50:21):
Because Ross can tell you parenting. All of you guys,
parenting is hard. Yeah, even with mom and dad.

Speaker 3 (01:50:27):
That's why I just kind of left it. My wife.

Speaker 1 (01:50:32):
Man, I should not be the only one laughing at that.

Speaker 3 (01:50:35):
Was that was we know it's true? One O four
one Again. You can always text us at seven seven
zero three one. Load him up, guys, got a four
pack of Monster Jam tickets with the print pit pass

they see me sitting down for the first time, but
they get used to.

Speaker 3 (01:51:26):
It, do they. We're not going through anything.

Speaker 1 (01:51:33):
Showers are relaxing, sitting is relaxing combined both worlds.

One is Dano, Dano? How you doing doing good?

Speaker 1 (01:53:02):
How are you doing good? Buddy?

Speaker 3 (01:53:03):
Want to play a little game with us, Yes, sir,
let's do it.

Speaker 1 (01:53:11):
Right, Dano.

Speaker 3 (01:53:11):
This is a real easy game. Boss, got a question
here for you. Four answers. One of these answers is
not true, but if you find it, I will send
you over to Jack and he has a four pack
of Monster Jam tickets plus a pit pass. Are you ready?
Here we go, buddy. On this day in nineteen forty two,
author physicist considered by many to be one of the

(01:53:34):
smartest people to ever live, Stephen Hawky. That's right, had
a major motion picture made after his life. Stephen Hawking
was born on this day. Here are three fun facts
about Steven and one wheelchair ramp at Epstein Island of Alive.
So yeah he went there, right? Why?

Speaker 1 (01:53:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:53:49):
I think he did.

Speaker 1 (01:53:50):
Yeah, yeah, legendily.

Speaker 3 (01:53:52):
Yeah, he's I think he's on the I think he's
on the list.

Speaker 1 (01:53:54):
He rolled up in that list.

Speaker 3 (01:53:55):
Oh come on, wow, that's the grown verry body we're
talking about Stephen Hawking Here, which one of these is
not true? Number one he donated half the proceeds from
his book A Brief History of Time to buy Wheelchairs
for Kids with Als. Number two. Before being stricken with
lou Garrig's disease, he was on the Oxford rowing team.

(01:54:16):
Number three, he defied the odds of als. Most people
with als die within ten years of diagnosis. Hawking lived
for fifty five years after his diagnosis. Were lastly here
he was the first quadriplegic to experience weightlessness when he
took a zero gravity flight in two thousand and seven.
Which of those is a lie?

Speaker 2 (01:54:37):
Oh man, Let's go with number two?

Speaker 3 (01:54:39):
No, buddy, that's absolutely true. Before he had lou Garriggs,
which is also known as ALS, he was on the
Oxford rowing rowing team. He was the cockswing.

Speaker 1 (01:54:48):
Oh wow.

Speaker 3 (01:54:49):
They actually used to get in trouble because he was
a bit of a daredevil and he would steer the
boat into areas it wasn't supposed to go, and a
lot of times it would get like broken.

Speaker 1 (01:54:56):
It's a bit of a dick. Two, three, four or five.

Speaker 3 (01:54:59):
Let's go. Let's go to right there is Chase Chase.
How you doing.

Speaker 1 (01:55:04):
Doing pretty good?

Speaker 3 (01:55:04):
How are you good? Buddy? We're talking about Stephen Hawking here.
Which one of these isn't true? Number one? He donated
half the proceeds from his book A Brief History of
Time to buy wheelchairs for kids with als. Number two
He defied the odds of als. Most people with als
die ten years after diagnosis. He lived for fifty five
more years. Or Lastly, he was the first quadriplegic to
experience weightlessness when he took a zero gravity flight in

(01:55:27):
two thousand and seven.

Speaker 4 (01:55:30):
I'm gonna go with the number one.

Speaker 1 (01:55:32):
That's the one many.

Speaker 3 (01:55:37):
Enjoy the monster Jam bosh, you got four tickets coming
your way with a pit pass. Hope you have fun.

Speaker 17 (01:55:42):
Heck yeah, thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:55:43):
All right, buddy, you got it man, no problem whatsoever.
Appreciate your call. Yeah. He did not donate half the
proceeds of his book, A Brief History of Time. But
he did write A Briefer History of Time and did
donate half the proceeds to charity from that book.

Speaker 4 (01:55:56):
Oh okay.

Speaker 3 (01:55:56):
He did defy the odds of als. Most people do
pass away ten years after their diagnosis. He lived fifty
five years, defying like every odd possible. And then he
was the first quadriplegic to experience weightlessness when he took
a zero gravity flight. And I have to tell you
it's hard not to laugh at that photograph, and you shouldn't, yeah,
because he's just kind of floating there, like, you know,

(01:56:18):
like a hot dog with clothes, and he's this.

Speaker 1 (01:56:23):
I mean, I've also got a lot of questions more
than answers.

Speaker 3 (01:56:27):
Like does he sit in the shower? No, get out
of here. A couple of other things you may not know
about Hawking before we get to the top of the hour,
and rosso's grown. At the age of nine, was he
considered a brilliant student or an average student?

Speaker 1 (01:56:41):
I'll average he was.

Speaker 3 (01:56:42):
It was odd because considering that he is considered the
second smartest person to ever live by a couple of
lists that I look up, second only to Einstein. I've
always heard that it's Newton, but they think he's the second.
That at nine years old he was considered an average
student at best. He did not blossom to a little
bit later in life when mathematics took his life over,
and then he obviously took to it. By the end

(01:57:04):
of his life, he was using a system that allowed
him to communicate by doing what blinking, man, you're close, breathing,
you're close, as well, mouth movements. Cheek. He had one
cheek muscle that was still active, and they built a
pair of glasses that had an infrared sensor where he
could flex this cheek muscle right here and use his

(01:57:26):
system to communicate Wow. He had it with his fingers,
but als finally took all the movement from his fingers
as well, and it was just a couple of fingers
on one hand, and then that lost and that he
developed the system so he could do that.

Speaker 17 (01:57:38):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:57:39):
He was married twice and had three kids. They all
had no issues and they're all professionals, I believe still.
And then lastly, his voice synthesizer smoke in an American accent,
even though he's British, and he did that for fun.
He thought that was the biggest running joke I guess
he had was once he got als and the machine
started speaking for him, they wanted to change it to

(01:58:01):
an English accent. He thought it was funny that it
was an American accent because a lot of people didn't
know he was English until that damn movie came out.
A lot of people thought he was an American. Oh wow, yeah, yeah,
and what's that? A lot of people, I mean me,
I think he was on an episode of Star Trek
as well. Yeah, playing cards with Einstein and a Newton
I believe. Yeah, And he's the only person to appear
live on Star Trek as themselves in the history of

(01:58:24):
the show.

Speaker 1 (01:58:25):
Yeah that's cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's better than being
like a Jeopardy question. No shot at Scott Max.

Speaker 3 (01:58:30):
But yeah, there's so many little interesting tidbits about Hawking
in his life. There really are. I mean, when you
know I brought it up, you know, fun facts about
Stephen Hawking. There was a couple of websites. One of
them was like seventy little tidbits. But man, it's all academia,
you know where you're looking at it? How Yeah, I
can't turn that into anything fun, you know, But what's
coming up with thoughts? Pick dog?

Speaker 1 (01:58:50):
I have found out that Jack is the reason why
I have gained several pounds. Oh yeah, yep. And he
also communicates just like Stephen Hawking.

Speaker 3 (01:59:02):
I guess he just winked into that.

Speaker 1 (01:59:05):
He communicates via The Bad Guy and Breaking Bad season four,
via Bell.

Speaker 16 (01:59:13):
No.

Speaker 1 (01:59:13):
I found out what is the pro and the con
of would you guys ever have a child? And then
show that photo of your child to like, I don't know,
like three million people. That's what I did, And I'll
explain what are the pros and cons of one moving

(01:59:35):
images of your baby goes viral on the internet.

Speaker 3 (01:59:40):
All right, we'll do that next.

Speaker 10 (01:59:46):
Yeah, to the guy in the white Honda Accord going
northbound on nine ninety five getting the road hummered from
his wife and or girlfriend.

Speaker 3 (01:59:53):
A couple tips of advice.

Speaker 10 (01:59:54):
You want to go in the right lane, the far
right lane and crews about seventy. That way, you have
less of a chance of people uh seeing anything when
they're driving by second thing side SunRail, and also block
anybody from watching in when you're getting that done.

Speaker 1 (02:00:08):
Have a good one.

Speaker 3 (02:00:13):
All right? You ever seen that before?

Speaker 4 (02:00:16):
Did I hear that? Correctly?

Speaker 3 (02:00:18):
I've not seen that before. No, you're not supposed to.
Do you ever experienced that before? Four o seven one?

Speaker 11 (02:00:25):
You know?

Speaker 3 (02:00:25):
Always text our show at seven seven zero three one,
Welcome back. I am Jim, there's deb Hello. Ross's here
as well.

Speaker 1 (02:00:32):
That's true.

Speaker 3 (02:00:33):
I saw once on the four away. Did you really pov?

Speaker 1 (02:00:39):
I was?

Speaker 3 (02:00:39):
It was in the car to my life?

Speaker 1 (02:00:42):
Got him?

Speaker 3 (02:00:43):
All right, let's let the beach line it all right,
let's get some let's get some roughs thoughts. It's weird
brought to you by Mills. It's funny nails. Air conditioning
Sometimes if you don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:00:54):
It's Ross, now you know.

Speaker 3 (02:00:58):
It's Ross.

Speaker 2 (02:00:59):
Thought.

Speaker 1 (02:01:00):
Sure, it might not be hot out right now, but
that doesn't mean you should be forgetting about your air
conditioning unit. And if you have any questions once or desires.
When it comes to AC and Central Florida, there is
one answer and it is.

Speaker 3 (02:01:13):
Mills Air condition just the best people. You gotta do it.

Speaker 1 (02:01:16):
They've been providing it great air conditioning services for Central
Floridians for decades and you can keep that streak alive.
Mills Air They helped me out. They can help you
out as well. Above and beyond, I am here to
tell you the pros and cons man. The Internet's a
crazy place. The Internet is also what is the main
reason why I think everything around me is plateauing. Everything

(02:01:38):
feels like it's peaked, which is kind of sad because
we are being drenched in all these amazing riches that
is in the year twenty twenty six. But also at
the same time, I don't know, you don't see a
lot of growth anymore. And what I mean by that like,
look at TV and movies right now. That's a different

(02:01:59):
that's a different outcome than I think anybody thought back
in twenty ten. Yeah, versus what the Internet has done.
And one thing that I would say on equivocally that
the Internet has done was literally create a world and
create different people. The one type of person that acts
in the regular normal world might act completely different online.

(02:02:20):
Kevin Durant has a burner account right right, right, You
see what I'm saying. Yeah, on a hundred percent, he
wants to he wants to live a different persona in
this digital world.

Speaker 3 (02:02:29):
But mante tanyo guy, right, I.

Speaker 1 (02:02:31):
Mean he got I mean he got catfish by h Man.
I'll never forget that thirty for thirty.

Speaker 3 (02:02:36):
Hey he's like doing he's doing broadcasting stuff now like, hey,
he's on one of those teams that does a broadcast.
What I'm saying is, you know, it wasn't like a
bad thing, but you know, it just goes to show you.
You know, you would think big football player, good looking dude,
obviously going to be very successful, he wouldn't have to
worry about stuff like that. But boom, there he is.

Speaker 1 (02:02:51):
So with all of that said, I feel like that's
a full blown disclaimer because this is how I perceive
the Internet, and I honestly think it's not a bad
perception of the new digital world that we all have
in our pockets. With that said, I'm walking out of
Putt Putt with my family. I'm holding my son and
he I'm kissing him and he's laughing. I'm like, dude,

(02:03:13):
there's nothing better. This is like the happiest I think
I've ever been. Walking back to my car, I'm walking to.

Speaker 3 (02:03:20):
My I can't get enough.

Speaker 1 (02:03:25):
Sure, Oh god, what I kissed you too hard? There, Bud.
That is the audio of the video that I recorded
as I'm walking back to my car to Really, honestly,
I recorded it because I just like, I want to

(02:03:45):
capture this moment in time.

Speaker 11 (02:03:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:03:47):
Yeah, I saw the video all right.

Speaker 1 (02:03:48):
I couldn't get over of how lucky I was to
be blessed with a baby that's that easy to laugh
as long as I just kind of kiss him aggressively
he laughs, And I'm just it was so much fun.
So I recorded it on my phone and I just
wanted it as a little time capsule. The next day,
I run into some friends and I show them that
video and they love it to the point where I'm like, no, know,

(02:04:10):
maybe I might post it. I might post the video.
I post it. It's got like two hundred and eighty
thousand likes right now? Does it really just call it
three hundred thousand likes? The video has ripped on the Internet,
and the reason why is because it is I cannot

(02:04:31):
believe I'm saying this, and I did not know this
posting it. It's a conversation starter because there's not that many,
I guess amount of dads that are willing to show
affection to their offspring publicly in the digital world. I
was gobsmacked by how this actually came of to in

(02:04:53):
some people's feeds, where they thought, man, I wish my
dad did that. Oh well, that's a loving dad. And
for the most part they're It is so many nice
things that are being said.

Speaker 3 (02:05:03):
Three almost three hundred thousand likes, eighteen hundred comments, thirty
thirty seven point seven thousand chairs.

Speaker 1 (02:05:10):
Now that is.

Speaker 3 (02:05:12):
Uncomfortable for me.

Speaker 1 (02:05:14):
I'm not gonna lie. I did not think that me
and my son would rip through the digital world. The
reason why I bring it up here though, Jim all
these comments, I'll read you some of them, and says,
enjoy it while you while while you can. They grow
so fast before you realize it, they're already out of
the home.

Speaker 3 (02:05:31):
I like this one.

Speaker 5 (02:05:31):
I need a video compilation of all the times you
happily almost drop your baby.

Speaker 3 (02:05:36):
Which also happens in this video.

Speaker 1 (02:05:38):
You kiss them hard, I kiss them hard, and he
almost fell, but I caught him. How many likes does
that comment have?

Speaker 3 (02:05:43):
Jack seven hundred and fifty four? You see where I'm
getting at?

Speaker 1 (02:05:46):
Yeah, you see when the comments start getting a lot
of likes, you start kind of panicking. Man, When I
say I love being a dad, there's no better feeling
than seeing my son's smile, says Justin p K on Instagram.
The reason why I'm rattling off Instagram comments because someone
also commented, check his laptop.

Speaker 3 (02:06:07):
Oh wow, really Now I just saw that. When one
has good no, say it, say it with your chest.
How many likes just to check your laptop?

Speaker 1 (02:06:15):
Comment have?

Speaker 3 (02:06:16):
Jim two thousand and six?

Speaker 1 (02:06:18):
What do we do it?

Speaker 3 (02:06:20):
Three hundred replies?

Speaker 1 (02:06:22):
What are we doing? And if you look within those,
what I'm trying to get at is that the digital
west world that we call the Internet these days is
a very dangerous place. Because this man's got me checking
my own damn laptop. I'm freaking out as soon as
they left that comment, and then I see every I
am in both worlds because in one side of me,

(02:06:43):
the human side of me, Jim the Internet user goes
and thinks, you know what, that's wildly inappropriate? Sure, Yeah,
that you shouldn't say that, Like you literally just called
me a monster. As I'm at my happiest moment in
me though, is like that was great word economy.

Speaker 3 (02:07:05):
Check his laptop, three words, big power, three words, don't
city God.

Speaker 1 (02:07:10):
This guy's good and Jack, if you could do me
a favor, do you see the check his lapstop laptop
commentwards towards the bottom because I think they've tried to
push it away.

Speaker 3 (02:07:20):
His instagram used their name.

Speaker 1 (02:07:22):
And I can say this because I don't really care
if anybody hits I don't care, but his instagram us
your name is Expec Excel spread cheeks sixty nine, spread cheek,
spread cheeks. Okay, and he absolutely dunked on me. And
I just wanted to give a little PSA if I may.
I think I don't think we should post our kids

(02:07:43):
on the internet anymore. I thought this was gonna be
for friends. I didn't think this is gonna go throughout
the entire country. And I also didn't think I was
gonna be accused of some gnarly things.

Speaker 3 (02:07:56):
So now all I just yeah, But everybody in the
comments commented about that comment. We're dogging this dude like crazy.
You saw that right, yeah, yeah, once at the mental
gymnastics to get to that fallacy. Uh, probably pictures of
his kid, that's what you're looking for, like asking him
if that's what he was looking for? Are you insane?
You should have kids, you'll understand. I mean, everybody's coming

(02:08:17):
at this guy.

Speaker 1 (02:08:18):
And in one way, I feel like this is also
the perfect one. Guy just says kill yourself. I just
if there's one better, small example of what I would
say what is wrong with the country, it would be that, yes,
in a small, one sentence, is that I think we're

(02:08:40):
going to meme ourself into an apocalypse. Well, I don't think.

Speaker 3 (02:08:45):
No repercussions for your comments, that's the problem. They're no repercussions. None. Yeah,
you don't have any repercussions. There's no regulation on what
you can and can't say. You can say the most
awful stuff, and if you say it as an anonymous person,
you know there's no repercussions.

Speaker 5 (02:08:59):
But there's a bigger question here, and I think I
definitely a more important one.

Speaker 1 (02:09:03):
All Right, is your Instagram monetized?

Speaker 3 (02:09:07):
My Instagram is not monetized, So this didn't even make anything.
This made me zero dollar.

Speaker 1 (02:09:12):
This kid's earning you nothing's nothing, he's costed new money.

Speaker 3 (02:09:16):
What an awful question? How long are you gonna wait
until you get him out earning? That is such a
terrible question to ask him. Dude, are you serious? Do
you know how much money you just lost?

Speaker 16 (02:09:28):
What?

Speaker 3 (02:09:28):
Are you a moron? Why would you do that? Why
would you put a video up having get three million,
three hundred thousand likes and they get nothing? You just
for you just you just pissed his college money away.
It gets even worse.

Speaker 5 (02:09:40):
No, please tell by the way people are asking, it's
on uh your.

Speaker 1 (02:09:45):
Instagram, It's on my Instagram. Yeah, but also.

Speaker 5 (02:09:48):
Yeah at real Radio dot FM slash watch you can
see us.

Speaker 1 (02:09:51):
It's playing. It's been playing this whole time. Uh. I
had I had the ah man, Yeah, I'll share this.
I had the option of monetization, but I felt ethically
uncool about like it getting turned on you damn liberal?

Speaker 3 (02:10:11):
How much would that have made?

Speaker 1 (02:10:13):
No idea? I don't want to know.

Speaker 3 (02:10:15):
This is Baldwin Parkson, right, Marcando.

Speaker 1 (02:10:20):
Whenever you like, I'm at that status in social media,
is that whenever you post something you can have monetization
on or not?

Speaker 3 (02:10:30):
I think maybe on Facebook?

Speaker 1 (02:10:31):
I think you could send me a star, So I'm not.
I don't know. I just you.

Speaker 3 (02:10:34):
Can't retroactively go back, and.

Speaker 1 (02:10:36):
I don't think I can't. I didn't want to think
about that, Zuck, I need help, Yeah, I don't. I
just it's just a it's a weird world because I
remember before I posted that taking a photo with your
kid was not going to have you be accused of
being a pedophile like at all. And now because it's

(02:10:59):
just the general public and excel spread Cheeks sixty nine
has his own little platform and he can say all
these wily things. It just makes me go like, man,
I guess I'm gonna go get a photo album and
a printer and I'm gonna go back to the future
of printing photos so you can flip a page and go,

(02:11:20):
this is when you were one, because I thought it happened, like, well,
I guess you have a private Instagram.

Speaker 3 (02:11:27):
How much do you.

Speaker 4 (02:11:27):
Think, Oh, here we go and Instagram?

Speaker 3 (02:11:30):
How much do you think of Instagram? Video with three
million views could possibly earn a content creator?

Speaker 1 (02:11:37):
Oh no, all right, thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (02:11:42):
Times no four, four, five to twenty k Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (02:11:51):
Okay, but this isn't three million.

Speaker 3 (02:11:52):
This is three million views though, right, Yeah, three hundred
thousand likes, three million views. That's on three million views.
You can call me whatever you want for ten grand.
I'll do a lot of things for ten grand. I
think I'm gonna share it. Let's see if we can
get this up higher now. Yeah, it says some suggest
creators can earn one to five thousand per million plays

(02:12:16):
with sponsored posts. Oh, someone is taxing thirty grand. Miss
if you're just joining us.

Speaker 1 (02:12:21):
I missed out on thirty grand because I let this
guy call me a monster as I kissed my kid
out in public.

Speaker 3 (02:12:28):
But that guy got handled in the comment. So you
if you go and read those, that's really the best
read in the entire thing is reading people coming at
that fool.

Speaker 1 (02:12:35):
Yeah. And I was so surprised that the dad's, like
so many women were in the comments going like I
wish that my dad did this. I wish my husband
did this. So I'm like, whoa, I need to go
hang out with more construction workers. I guess I don't know.
It just made me go, like, is kissing my son
like soft? No, dude, Like I'm gonna keep kissing my kid.

(02:12:58):
But I was just blown away by that being any
bit inflammatory.

Speaker 3 (02:13:01):
Yea, dude, Brady kisses his kids on the mouth and
they're like, twelve, Yeah, I'm not doing that. That's a
bit much. You could just snuggle your kid's neck and
just like just you know, just stick your face and
toddler toler Dude, he's loving it. Are you kidding? Yeah?
I want to do it.

Speaker 1 (02:13:15):
Yeah, okay, okay, no, no, you were excel spreads all spread.

Speaker 3 (02:13:21):
No, those are your ross thoughts. Go call Mills Air.

Speaker 1 (02:13:25):
I'm out.

Speaker 3 (02:13:25):

holiday's not over for the kid though.

Speaker 3 (02:13:49):
My birthdays tomorrow sixty two.

Speaker 11 (02:13:51):
Dude, my phone is ringing off the hook, man. Luckily,
I have a good helper, so I can't complain about
a whole lot of stuff. You know, he messes up
once in a while, and I could. You know, I
got that OCD thing going on, so but it's cool.
Everything is good. My phone's ringing off the hook, dude.
I got to go to Vero Beach to look at
three jobs. So I'm not complaining, all right, you guys
have a good day.

Speaker 4 (02:14:12):
Happy birthday.

Speaker 5 (02:14:14):
Happy birthday, Flexi James. Happy birthday, Flexi James. I like
Ali added his apprentice, his partner. Yeah, he's go working.
He messes up every once in a while.

Speaker 3 (02:14:27):
All right for our seven nine one text us at
seven seven zero three one, I'm Jimner's dad. Hello, take
us here as well. Yeah, we're also to take off.
He's got a gig tonight doing some stand up out
on the other side of town at money Bolt. Yeah,
funnybone tonight. I still have a hard time sting, not
singing improv. I haven't made the switch yet because when
I I don't know about that. You guys do that

(02:14:48):
same thing. Okay, So we didn't used to have a
trash can in our house. Like in the kitchen. We
have this little sink on the side. It's like meant
for this little bar thing. Then we have the other
scene that's the main sink in the house, like for
the kitchen, right, okay, Like it's like a little like
a little it's a bar sing. I don't know how
it's to say it. I got it. So what we
would do rather than you know, have a trash can.

(02:15:10):
We would have a trash bag that would sit in
that sink, and we would just throw stuff in that
and then wrap it up and take it outside. That way,
it wouldn't stay in the house and blah blah blah blah.
And but we have a trash can now, so every
time I go to throw something away, I walk to
that sink instead of walking into the trash can.

Speaker 1 (02:15:25):
And I don't know why I said that, because you're
trying to say why you are still going back to
the improv which was two years ago.

Speaker 3 (02:15:33):
They changed it the bone exactly.

Speaker 5 (02:15:34):
Yeah, they make a change, but you're a little slower.

Speaker 3 (02:15:38):
On the other take learner, buddy, Yeah, yeah, it was
a little.

Speaker 1 (02:15:41):
Learning and it's the same thing.

Speaker 5 (02:15:43):
Remember they changed it to Camping World stand Well, it
happened with the Way Arena too, But they're like, I'm
still calling its ball.

Speaker 1 (02:15:50):
I'm still called you know, it's a couple of years.

Speaker 5 (02:15:52):
But guess what we all call a Camping World standium
now I still call yeah, and the old arena and
then it was teed water and I'm not saying.

Speaker 3 (02:16:01):
That right, Yeah, all right again four or seven nine
six four one text us at seven seven zero three one.
Do you guys have a vendor that you trust the
least that you do business with because you have to
well I'm not going to say their name. Well, I
mean you don't what what kind of services point that?
Can you say? Even going there? Well, the reason I'm
bringing up is there's a story here and I will

(02:16:22):
tell you. I won't say the name either. Uh, but
there was a popular oil change place in the land.
Oh do you know the story?

Speaker 15 (02:16:31):
I may.

Speaker 3 (02:16:31):
Yeah, So I have to tell you. Do you guys
get your oil change at a place like that or
do you go to the dealership? Jack? Interesting?

Speaker 5 (02:16:39):
So when I I have a mechanic that I trust
and use for oil changes.

Speaker 3 (02:16:43):
Now I used to do it myself. Finally I stopped.

Speaker 5 (02:16:46):
I have a mechanic that I trust for that just
did it this week for my car only because having
new they cover oil changes for the first exactly few.
So I'm still going into the dealership for that. And
it's a nice service. But there ain't away.

Speaker 3 (02:17:01):
Oh yeah, because it's ridiculous when you go to the dealership,
it's like what.

Speaker 5 (02:17:04):
Twice as much? Yeah, my mechanic called it the stealership. Yeah, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (02:17:08):
Wow. And that's what I mean. So, did you buy
yours from a dealership or the auction.

Speaker 7 (02:17:12):
I got mine from an auction through a dealer, and
I will go to him for all of my cars.

Speaker 3 (02:17:17):
So you do all that you have somebody, you do
that with it, because I.

Speaker 7 (02:17:19):
Have gone to these places before, and I'm always worried
because inevitably a cap is left off, something ends up happening.

Speaker 4 (02:17:26):
And I've been lucky with the situation.

Speaker 3 (02:17:29):
So when you find someone you try.

Speaker 5 (02:17:30):
When it comes to repair, Yeah, trust someone, whether it's
a the dealership, a mechanic, or it's a correct you know,
a guy down the block.

Speaker 3 (02:17:37):
Yeah, trust them. It makes all the difference. And usually
though with your mechanic, because the per hour cost is
so expensive. I would never use a mechanic because I
think it's now like almost one hundred and twenty dollars
an hour for most mechanics that I know. So I mean,
and they book minimum times, you know what I'm saying
by that?

Speaker 1 (02:17:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:17:52):
Yeah, like you know, even though they can change your
oil in twenty minutes, you get booked an hour because
they don't have a twenty minute charge. You just have
it by the hour.

Speaker 5 (02:17:59):
They do what's in the old chilting books for using
you know, hand tools, when they're using power tool.

Speaker 3 (02:18:05):
RI have it done in a quarter of the time.
And a lot of these garages that have these little
pop up places, there are tons of them, you know.
Valveleene has them, Mobile has them. Have you seen them everywhere?
You know they have them set up so it's used
them as well. It's built for speed you pull it in.
And I do have one. I use the Valveleene company.
That's that's what I use because I found that they
train their people better than any of the others that

(02:18:27):
I've experienced. And I've experienced like three of these oil
change places, and I specifically go to Valveleen. I've had
good experiences there, right, and they're right around the corner.
And that's the I've read years ago that's the best
motor oil made for regular cars is Valveleene. Right. So
this lady went into a place that was not one
of these places, and they drained her transmission fluid out
of her transmission and then put the cat back on

(02:18:50):
and her car almost burned up, which would have cost
her twenty grand uh or so that's what they say.
I mean I don't think it transmissions that much, but
probably far from it. One of the most expensive. It
is the most common implicated thing in your car, I believe.
But man, it's a weird thing doing that, because I
have to tell you, I've built a couple of cars,
and I you know, I've worked on cars my entire life,
so I know a little bit about them.

Speaker 11 (02:19:10):
Right.

Speaker 3 (02:19:10):
The modern engines are way more may way more difficult,
but the old engines were really easy to work on actually,
not that complicated of a machine. So it would be
nothing for me to do that. I don't have time
for that anymore. I don't want to do it anymore,
so I just take it to somebody. It's too expensive
to be honest with your f one thing. I think
an oil changed like one hundred and twenty one hundred
and thirty bucks now, and you could buy the oil

(02:19:30):
yourself for like fifty you know, if you want, if
you just had an hour to do it in the
you know, and everything it takes to do it.

Speaker 5 (02:19:36):
It wasn't that long ago. I remember paying under twenty yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
but when you was in that long that ago. But
you used synthetic though, right now? Yeah, So the difference
between conventional and synthetic. I had, I'd all change on
the car I sold that was seventy five bucks.

Speaker 3 (02:19:50):
It was ninety five for the one with the synthetic, right, yeah,
because I think the synthetic now is like, you know
about what at eight to ten or eleven dollars a
court based on what you gain as opposed to like
five or six depenning what you get there, and you
know what do you do like five seven quarts something
like that for your vot I'm guessing it was four
or five. But man, this uh. I remember pulling up
to one that wasn't like a Valveline place, and when

(02:20:13):
the guy came up, just talking to him, just talking
to him. I knew he didn't know what he was doing. Yeah,
like literally, did I know for a fact that he
was you know, he was going through the train and
he had no clue what he was doing. I just left,
I did. I said, look, man, I'm sorry, I just
remember I had an appointment. I get out of here.

(02:20:34):
My apologies, I'll catch you guys tomorrow whatever. And I
just took off because I just didn't want to roll
the dice of them not putting enough oil in not
doing whatever, and then and then you got to go
through the upsell scenario of those guys.

Speaker 7 (02:20:47):
I think in that case that you were reading, they
did cause like seventeen thousand dollars in damage to her,
did they really?

Speaker 1 (02:20:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:20:52):
I thought she caught it. No oh no.

Speaker 7 (02:20:54):
Really no, she'd already Yeah, she did not catch it, unfortunately,
and it caused seventeen thousand dollars worth of damage.

Speaker 3 (02:21:02):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (02:21:03):
And that's the I mean, that's to get a new
cabin air filter for that. Yeah, but they have to be.

Speaker 3 (02:21:07):
Responsible for that, right, Like how do you prove that,
like if you were to go into one of those places, because.

Speaker 7 (02:21:13):
That's the worry, right right, Yeah, because they're prepared to
do it fast. They know how much their crew has
been trained, right. Their promise is to get you in
and get you out in twenty minutes.

Speaker 1 (02:21:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (02:21:23):
I wouldn't be surprised if that little paper that you signed,
you know about you know, if you sign anything has
something about you know, you have to go to arbitration
or I don't know. To be left with seventeen thousand
dollars in damage to your vehicle and no recourse would
be pretty gnarly.

Speaker 3 (02:21:40):
Yeah, She considered herself a loyal customer, but she said
since the October incident, she took all of her cars
to somewhere else. Now she goes, just mean it. Just
minutes from leaving the shop, she realized something wasn't right.

Speaker 4 (02:21:54):
It doesn't take long for your transmission to.

Speaker 3 (02:21:55):
Yeah, and now I know how it was too expensive.
It was a Mercedes. Oh, she drove right back to
where she did it. She said the workers were honest
about making the mistake. He was like, oh my god,
oh my god, I'm so sorry. We actually, oh my god,
we emptied the transmission fluid instead of the oil. It's
not even the same color. Transmission fluid is like a

(02:22:17):
red ruby red color, like a pinkish red color, and
obviously motor oil brand new is not. It's got that
brownish green translucent look to it. And then of course
if it's used, it's you know, blackest soot. The shop
worker later followed up with a text message that included
a claim number and a message apologizing. The follow up
text message explaying her transmission was mistakingly emptied. I mean,

(02:22:40):
that's just simply not knowing what you're doing. You can't
make that mistake. I mean, it's no, I've not seen
the under side of a Mercedes. I don't know. I mean,
but if you know anything about cars, it's not even
in the same place. It's not even near.

Speaker 4 (02:22:53):
And unfortunately, depending on what service she used, you know,
you drive over those those banks right where they're doing
everything thing in an area that you can't see.

Speaker 3 (02:23:03):
Gott al mighty.

Speaker 4 (02:23:03):
So even if she did know.

Speaker 7 (02:23:05):
Her vehicle or other vehicles, she wasn't in a position
to go whoa whoa wall.

Speaker 4 (02:23:08):
Wait a minute, why are you draining that?

Speaker 3 (02:23:10):
Yeah, you're right, she said. Her dealership told her the
transmission needs to be replaced. To cost estimate for the
replacement and a flush was more than eighteen thousand dollars.
They were like, look, this need's in dude, transmission transmission shot.
It's going to fail eventually if you don't take care
of it.

Speaker 17 (02:23:25):
No, got al mighty.

Speaker 4 (02:23:28):
That's a bummer.

Speaker 3 (02:23:29):
Yeah. Man, that's not good.

Speaker 4 (02:23:31):
That's beyond a bummer.

Speaker 3 (02:23:32):
Yeah. And it's funny because I mean, these places are everywhere.
They must be a really good franchise business or something,
because I'm telling you straight up, you see these damn
things everywhere.

Speaker 4 (02:23:39):
This and self storage.

Speaker 3 (02:23:41):
Oh, yeah, yeah, car washes, car washes. Look, man, I
have to tell you that car wash world. We had
a buddy, remember Wags, Yeah, Wags up right up here
on four thirty four for you guys living out of
the area. It's just around the corner from us here
at the radio station. There was a plot of land
up there and he and his wife and another investor
were going to build a small car wash where actually

(02:24:01):
there is a car wash now. They were going to
do that. Something fell through and they didn't do it.
That car was has been opened for like fifteen years,
twenty years, whatever it is. Yeah, money machines. I knew
a guy that owned one in Pee Town and it
wasn't anything like these things like this spaceship that you
drive your car through in these modern ones. Like mister, mister,
my wife has a membership to that thing and she
goes in like twice a week. Yeah, they keep your
car clean, But those things are like, you know, that's

(02:24:22):
a space age machine there with all kinds of vacuums
and hoses and everything. The one that my buddy owned
up in Petwn was just an area where it had
a basically a pressure washer wand and a soaping thing,
and you'd go there and do it, and he made
an absolute killing, dude. Yeah, I mean made a killing.
And it was just like three bays. But people coming
back from the beach after going to the beach, which

(02:24:42):
was very common in my hometown, they would pull in
there and wash their cars off and get that saltwater
up their car and all the sand off of it.
And that guy there were lines and the average car
would only be in there like maybe four or five minutes,
and each car was like three or four bucks. But
it didn't matter. He was running a couple hundred cars
to their a day.

Speaker 17 (02:25:01):
Good business, It is a good business.

Speaker 3 (02:25:03):
I follow a guy now that talks about franchising online
on Instagram, and basically what he does is it tells
you what the good franchises are and the bad franchises are,
and really it's kind of amazing. The ones you would
think that would not be good are great. Like, what
do you think one of the best restaurant franchises is
to get Burger King? No, that's actually one of the worst.
Oh uh, Chick fil A, Yeah, Chick fil A is
one of the best. But they said you had a

(02:25:24):
better chance of getting into Yale than getting a Culver's
and Chick flay a the hardest franchise license to get,
they said. It's literally harder to get into an Ivy
League school than it is are easier to get into
an Ivy League school to get a franchise from Chick
Filay or Culver's. So Chili's, Oh wow, I believe it
or not. A Chili's was one of the best investments,

(02:25:45):
they said after the buildout because of the strong branding,
and they made a massive comeback a couple of years
with that nine dollars ninety nine cent burger deal. They
had really lost their customer base and they came in
and they said, well, what are we doing here? And
they basically made this dollar menu. We talked about this, right,
it's a Burger Friess in Minesota for nine dollars and
ninety nine per cent. It turned the entire franchise around. Yeah,

(02:26:08):
Chili's cheese is there? I don't know, Oh, there's gonna
be one. An automat dog. There's not one near Oh yeah,
there's one near us up right up the street from
Oh yeah, we have three new restaurants opening up in
the next month.

Speaker 4 (02:26:20):
Yeah, we got Texas Roadhouse. We've got a.

Speaker 7 (02:26:22):
First watch, Mission Barbecue and Mission Barbecue, all one.

Speaker 3 (02:26:26):
Two three, all opening up in one spot.

Speaker 4 (02:26:28):
It needs to be Orange Groves.

Speaker 3 (02:26:29):
Chili's right by the Altima Mall. Yeah, man, it's right there,
you know. And again, Chili's gets ragged on in pop
culture because it's Chili's, you know, it's not like your
like your Tji Fridays or Bennigans those ale house kind
of places that made their that made their moves in
the eighties and they ruled the nineties because if you
were any professional in the world after work on Fridays
or happy Hours Wednesdays and Fridays, you were at Bennigan's,

(02:26:52):
you were at Chili's, or you were at Fridays just
getting hammered with the salesgirls. I mean just getting Margerita
blotto with the sales team, that's for sure.

Speaker 5 (02:27:03):
Yeah, speaking to restaurants. Thanks for your reminder. During Date Night,
done right. You heard it here earlier with Danny Myering
at four o'clock. Available now on the Jim Culbert showed
the goods Our podcasts of the segments of the show
we put up each and every day.

Speaker 3 (02:27:16):
Courtesy of Deborah Roberts.

Speaker 5 (02:27:18):
However, Jim, your reminder, I secured a reservation for uh
the Friday, right the night before Valentine Valentine's Day because
my wife is singing on Valentine's Day in old Town.

Speaker 3 (02:27:31):
Oh really, where did you get? Do you want me
saying asking?

Speaker 11 (02:27:34):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:27:35):
Yeah, because I already told you when I'm going to
be there. I'll tell you after nice Yeah, yeah, it's twice.
It's twice.

Speaker 1 (02:27:43):
We like, really, you know what you like it?

Speaker 4 (02:27:46):
Does it shine?

Speaker 3 (02:27:47):
What do you mean does it shine? I don't know
what you're talking about. I don't know. You're gonna get
you right right right?

Speaker 4 (02:27:56):
Restaurant?

Speaker 9 (02:27:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:27:57):
Yeah, so Maxines. Uh, but like, if you want a
couple of heads up, I can give you if you want.
One of the most romantic restaurants in Orlando, and it
never gets talked about because it's been here forever is
go to Enzo's on the Lake up in Castlebury Winter
Springs area, right off seventeen night two. It does not
look like it should have a nice restaurant there, because

(02:28:18):
I think on one side of it as a nursery
and the other side is a glass store.

Speaker 5 (02:28:21):
It's so weirdly out of place. But once you get
in there, you're like, this is lovely.

Speaker 4 (02:28:25):
Some of the best Italian food you've ever had.

Speaker 3 (02:28:28):
I mean, like real deal, like old school.

Speaker 5 (02:28:30):
It is about a mile and a half from my house,
and I went there for Magical dining recently.

Speaker 3 (02:28:35):
Absolutely wonderful. Yeah, it's fantastic. Yea, it is. I mean
that's one of Glenn's favorite restaurants. And then we have,
like you know, once a year or twice a year,
Glenn and I will go there for lunch on Fridays
and you'll see every effing judge in all of Central Florida.
They're having a good times.

Speaker 5 (02:28:49):
And I remember the first I went there when I
first moved here, I mean twenty five years ago.

Speaker 3 (02:28:54):
We went back on the Phillips file.

Speaker 5 (02:28:55):
They were advertising bright and with Enzo Unbelieva. Yeah, and
we were in It's funny you mentioned Maxi's on Shine,
and well, we didn't get our reservations there. They they're
open for it, but my wife and I have had
more Thank Valentine's Day meals at Maxines on Shine than
any other restaurant.

Speaker 3 (02:29:12):
We ate there about it to change it up this year, uh,
I think we ate there like three or four, five
years ago for Valentine's Day. Yeah, there's a bunch of
really good spots in town there. It goes how by
the parks, some of the hotel restaurants that are up
on the up. In the restaurants in the hotels, they're
really nice places to go. The problem is, again you
have the tourist people that you're also fighting with for
dates there. So in Orlando, plays is like Rabitus pig

(02:29:33):
our friends. Over at Mount Dora in nineteen twenty one,
they already have their Valentine's menu up on the website
right now and it's less than one hundred dollars a person.

Speaker 5 (02:29:40):
So the restaurant I hear nothing but great things about it.
And the other thing too about nineteen twenty one. Not
only is it in beautiful downtown Mount Door, which is
already romantic to begin with, and let me throw in
the Goblin Market there as well.

Speaker 3 (02:29:49):
Another it's like having dinner at Hogwarts. It's like this
old house that looks like a library and you walk
in and the food is absolutely wonderful. It's been there
for decades, absolutely delicious. The nineteen twenty one already have
their menu up for Valentine's day, and it's under one
hundred dollars, and even if you add the wine pairing,
it's only thirty dollars more. And for Valentine's Day, I'm

(02:30:12):
telling you, at restaurants like that, that is an unbelievably
good deal. A little Italian place over a Monter Park
called Vinea is also very good, very quaint and very romantic.
That's a good spot. Another place called Rome's Flavors on
Park Ave is another really nice little Italian spot that's
been there for a while. It's got some good reviews,
some good little romantic spots all through town.

Speaker 4 (02:30:35):
Have you major reservations yet?

Speaker 3 (02:30:37):
I have not. I think, hey, I only give advice.
I don't follow it. I think I know what I'm
doing there. All right, dep what do you have for news?

Speaker 7 (02:30:45):
We're going to talk about the House passing an extension
of Obamacare subsidies. The ISS crew is returning early over
that medical issue, and new EAT's going to debut at
the Florida State Fair. We'll talk about that next during
you heard it here first?

Speaker 3 (02:30:58):
All right, STA little break, we'll come back in Deb's
news and get the hell out of here.

Speaker 5 (02:31:01):
On a Thursday, our friends at Tklaw want to remind
us always look ahead. We will look Ahead on Real
Radio tomorrow of Friday. We made it through our first

Speaker 6 (02:31:55):

little drink spots.

Speaker 9 (02:31:59):
Man, I live in Bellevue at four miles and you've
driven through Bellevue on full forty one and I think
we got four or five of them damned places.

Speaker 1 (02:32:09):
Man, It's crazy. Do the hell drinks that much coffee? Everyone?

Speaker 3 (02:32:15):
I drove by it this morning. Place was stacked. Yeah,

We have sinker sale tomorrow, the very first one of

This It's Friday.

Speaker 3 (02:32:46):
Yeah, been a good week man, for the first week
back has been great. You guys agree, Oh yeah, indeed,
very nice. All right, deb what do we have for news?

Speaker 2 (02:32:55):
Good time for you heard it here first on the
Jim Colbert Show.

Speaker 7 (02:33:00):
Ah, what I have is the House is passing legislation
to extend expired Obamacare tax credits. The bipartisan vote passed
two thirty to one ninety six, with seventeen Republicans crossing
the aisle to join every voting Democrat in support. The move,
which would extend the COVID Enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies,

(02:33:20):
will now head to the Senate, unfortunately, where it is
not expected to do as well. It is a blow,
though to Speaker Mike Johnson, who has argued for weeks
that the majority of House Republicans were opposed.

Speaker 3 (02:33:32):
Yeah, they are this, they are discharged petitioning that guy
to his face over and over. It's been a big
story of how, you know, House Republicans are just like
going around this cat like he's not even there anymore. Yeah,
like he's really lost the room a little bit a lot.

Speaker 7 (02:33:45):
Yeah, yeah, because it was I believe it was twelve
and then it went up to seventeen.

Speaker 1 (02:33:49):
Right, yeah, all right.

Speaker 7 (02:33:51):
Another follow up to a story we had done during
JCS News earlier in the afternoon. But NASA says the
ISS crew will make an early return to Earth because
of a medical situation with one crew member.

Speaker 8 (02:34:03):
Within the coming days. The Dragon Endeavor spacecraft will depart
the International Space Station with commander Xena Cartman, pilot Mike Fink,
Kimya Yui from Jackson, and Olegg platonoff of rose Cosmos
and safely return them to Earth.

Speaker 7 (02:34:19):
NASA Administrator Jared isaac Min said at a news conference
today the unnamed crew member is stable. The agency had
already postponed a spacewalk that was scheduled for today because
of the medical issue. Again, the Space Agency set of
plans to bring the crew home within the coming day.

Speaker 5 (02:34:36):
They were named matter of fact, but they named four right,
so you got a one to four shot of.

Speaker 4 (02:34:41):
Guess exactly which one it iss go for?

Speaker 7 (02:34:43):
Oleg And then finally, new foods are being rolled out
for this year's Florida State Fair, which runs February fifth
through the sixteenth at the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa.
Fairgoers can try items like buria streetcorn, Oh that sounds good,
cookie butter, frozen cheesecake that's.

Speaker 1 (02:35:04):
A knit damn cookie butter, keep calling.

Speaker 7 (02:35:08):
And a grilled campfire some'more sandwich, Oh my god. Other
new creations include hot honey hallopano donuts.

Speaker 3 (02:35:17):
Damn, that sounds good too.

Speaker 7 (02:35:18):
A deep fried Cuban burrito okay, And frozen candy coated grapes.

Speaker 4 (02:35:25):
Damn, just in case your fruit isn't healthy.

Speaker 3 (02:35:27):
Now, frozen grapes are a thing. Have you ever right yet? Grape?
It's like a grape slushie.

Speaker 7 (02:35:34):
Yeah, yeah, except now they're going to have candy coating
on them.

Speaker 3 (02:35:36):
Yeah, let's go.

Speaker 4 (02:35:37):
Fair officials say this.

Speaker 7 (02:35:38):
Year's lineup leans into bold flavors and over the top
desserts to Mark America's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary celebration.
And you heard it here first on the Jim Culbert.

Speaker 3 (02:35:49):
Shown you never appreciate that very much.

Speaker 17 (02:35:50):
You got it.

Speaker 4 (02:35:51):
You guys like fair food, you.

Speaker 3 (02:35:53):
Know I do, but I can only take so much
of it. It's the first time I tried to fried oreo,
which I mocked openly on the air for months before
I ate it. And then I ate one and said,
the only thing this is missing is an ice cold
glass of milk so cold it's got the crystals in
the in there because they're unbelievably good. But man, I'm
a standard guy. Man, Just give me a thing like

(02:36:14):
a sausage sub with some of their grilled onions. I
don't need a lot from the fair, but maybe they've
been They've grilled a hundred billion of those things on
that grill, and the flavor has been there for ages.

Speaker 5 (02:36:24):
Oh yeah, that's or Zeppel's well, yeah, it's it's all
fried dough.

Speaker 3 (02:36:29):
Yes.

Speaker 5 (02:36:30):
And I had that at the Fair one time, and
I'm like, oh my god, yeah, great.

Speaker 3 (02:36:35):
This is like the best ever. It's too good, man.
It is like that's good. It's it's like a mad
scientist who they just put in a room for a
year and say, come up with some stuff you wouldn't
think anybody would eat, Like a fried stick of butter.

Speaker 4 (02:36:46):
Yeah, that's a Wisconsin State Fair staple, right.

Speaker 3 (02:36:51):
I think that's where the fried cheese curd started.

Speaker 4 (02:36:53):
I don't know. Well, possibly I need.

Speaker 3 (02:36:55):
To fry some stuff. I got some peanut oil, I
got a use. Just make some and just make some
tempora dude, and get going.

Speaker 4 (02:37:02):
Oh yeah, I get you some veggies, right?

Speaker 3 (02:37:03):

Thank you guys. We appreciate that as we do every
single day. Jet question of the thing.

Speaker 5 (02:37:38):
Absolutely not only was it in YouTube chat, it's also
in Instagram and when we do it both, it's interesting
to see how they compare and chure enough within a
few percentage points.

Speaker 3 (02:37:49):
This was a four answer survey. All the they were
all equal.

Speaker 5 (02:37:54):
It was the same on both platforms, No way really
within a few percentage points. However, that the first, second, third,
and fourth the ranking is identical.

Speaker 3 (02:38:02):
And the question was how often do you wash your jeans?

Speaker 5 (02:38:06):
The choices were after everywhere, weekly, monthly or less.

Speaker 3 (02:38:11):
One of them got about half.

Speaker 5 (02:38:13):
Which one do you think it was? Getting about forty
nine percent monthly?

Speaker 3 (02:38:18):
Weekly? Really?

Speaker 5 (02:38:19):
Yeah, Monthly came in at second with twenty three percent.
After each weear was eighteen percent and just ten percent
