Brands That Have Turned Their Backs On Us - FRI 8.1

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Because we were talking about alligator Alcatraz earlier. It's called
a congregation. I knew that ants. This is easy. An army,
an army of ants, convocation of eagles. There's some pretty
fancy stuff here. Buffalo A group is called obstinacy.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
What do you call a group of wives? A group
of wives? A headache? Thanks, Brod, I thought so too.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Actually that's true. Yeah, No, it's listed right here. Is
it really on there? Wow? How about that? Okay? No,
all right?

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Speaking of okay, if you're going to ask people to
help you pay for something, you might want to hide
your one hundred million dollar luxury yacht while you do it.
Somebody want me to pay for something, and they got
a yacht. Okay, if you live in uh, what would
it be? I guess upstate New York. Yeah, they do
want you to pay. Buffalo, the luxury yacht owned by
Buffalo Bill's owner Terry Pagoula, was spotted in the port

(00:56):
of Newport, Rhode Island. There's a video of it. It's
been surfacing and circulating around on social media. Beautifully are yeah,
and Bills fans wasted no time blasting Terry because the
Bills are in the process of building a brand new
two point one billion dollars stadium, very fancy, luxury new stadium.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
And I'm guessing the owner of the Buffalo Bills, who
will use the stadium and enjoy all the luxury of it.
He don't want to foot the bill himself.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Right, The Bills are not paying for their state of
the art structure by themselves.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
He don't want to foot the bill for the Bills.
You get it. Yeah, you guys are just so clever.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
The taxpayers of the state of New York are providing
six hundred million, and the taxpayers of Erie County, where
the stadium will be built, are coffing up two hundred
and fifty million.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
So obviously, ever a little bit helps. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
So the fans who are being taxed to fund a
considerable portion of the stadium project were none too pleased
when they saw a symbol of the lifestyle of their
rich and famous owner on social media.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
What could a yacht run you these days? One hundred million?
We just told one hundred million. Yeah, like I thought
that was for the stadium. No, the stadium's two point
one billion. I'm explaining the numbers here. Billion.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Look, this is a that's a lot of money. They
got a photo of it on the internet. Here, the
yacht kind of looks like like a hotel or.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Some Yeah, it's kind of like a cruise ship. Yeah,
it looks really not look at it. How big it is.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
Wow, imagine that's a big boat next to it. Imagine
all the dead hookers. You could jump over the side
of that. Am I right, man, I don't like to
think about that. Well, you know how these are billionaires
after they do what they do. Yeah, they do what
they do. It's right, Bill, Yet I think we learned
enough about that.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Well, get the weekend coming up? You know how they are. Yeah,
you know the weekend?

Speaker 2 (02:38):
How it be. You gonna do what you do, don't
do it, You're gonna do it anyway. So the uh,
the yacht itself is pretty bougie.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
It does.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Indeed seem like getting it through the legislature there in
the state of New York would be a problem.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
But given that there are so many.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
NFL fans in the state, they actually they've they've been
able to accomplish that. Terry, by the way, has seven
point six billion dollars, and you know, he's probably the
most pits hissed about this Jets and Giants fans.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
Well, yeah, I guess so.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
All they get is a greasy Italian guy on the Giants.
And what did the Jets get? I mean, they don't
even have Aaron Rodgers anymore to do ayahuasca.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
No, that's just rude. He just left them. Who's quarterback
for them? Now? Anybody worthy of acknowledgment? I can't even
keep up no more. They'll actually have to hit the
field before I start keeping up. I ain't going to
read no stats and roster reports and all that.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Let's see, they got Justin Fields, Adrian Martinez, Brady Cook,
and Tyrod Taylor.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Does Trump I have a yacht? He used to back
in the day.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
He sold it when he was having financial problems back
at the end of the late eighties.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Oh, because of that black jacub in New York. I'm
sorry what? Oh that's Latitia James. No, that was way before. No,
that's not at all. No, No, they didn't get after
him back the n No, Trump had a yacht.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
In nineteen eighty eight, Bannetti built a yacht for Saudi
business and and billionaire Odd Non Koshet. Oh sure, and
I guess it got sold around a little bit. It
was called the Kingdom five Kr. Pretty nice, and at
some point it passed into the hands of Donald Trump,
but then he sold it to another prince for twenty
million dollars. Prince all a wheel bin tallal who renamed

(04:15):
the yacht Kingdom five kr, and it was called Trump
Princess when Trump had it.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
I don't really feel like that's the coolest name Trump.
Trump put a yacht like that, and that's pretty cheap.
Twenty to thirty million. Well back in the eighties too,
yacht like that runs about two and a half million
dollars a year just to operate, just to you know,
keep it moving around.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
The ship has a beam, Okay, they tell you the
sizes here when it was delivered, it at five desk desks, decks,
a disco, a cinema with seats for twelve eleven, opulent suites,
a helipad on top.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
It's like a rowboat compared to that Buffalo bills. Guy,
he's got a bigan.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
A pool with a water jet on top in front
of the heliport to reva tenders.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
What is that riv ten? What does that even mean? Singing?
Riv oh?

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Like little sideboats? A yacht tender is a vessel used
for servicing and provide. Okay, so it's a little boat.
Don't want to take the big yacht all the way
to shore. You bound that out here and then you
get somebody to bring you in. It had a crew
of forty eight people. Forty eight people work on the
I don't even know forty eight people.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
A top speed of twenty knots and cruising speed is
seven point five knots. Propulsion was supplied by two three
thousand horsepower NOHAB polar engines.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Are those any good, Billy?

Speaker 2 (05:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Pretty good. I mean we're back in the day. They're fine.
I guess they're made in Sweden. Swedish engines are good.
I guess they're fine. They didn't like what is that?
What's that Swedish? I don't see Trump as much of
a yachter those he's not. No. Yeah, I guess you
know you're rich, you just buy a yacht. Sometimes it's
it's easier than taking your pants down in public. What's that?

Speaker 2 (05:54):
A Swedish car company called Volva? Are those any good?

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Volva? Yeah? Volva?

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Ever drove one before? I bet you haven't.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
No, I don't even like, I Kiah, why did you
laugh when you said that?

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh? No reason, man. Anyway, Trump did have a yacht back.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
In the day.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
He saw that. No, I didn't have any more. So
it was funny y'all. Bring up Letitia James though, because
you see her on TV last night. I believe this
woman might have to skip the country. Lautitia James up
in New York. Uh, they talk about maybe you know,
none of this ever happens. They always say, well, you
know that's a crime punishable. Bye, up to this much
in jail. Not for the ruling class. Letitia James ain't

(06:32):
the ruling class. Well, I mean, okay, she ain't us either.
She's somewhere in between. A judge overturned Trump's like half
a billion dollar of civil punitive damages or whatever from
that thing where he allegedly overstated the value of his
real estate empire. Lautitia James ran for the job in

(06:56):
New York as a person Vote for me and I
will get Trump. That's her only platform for her campaign,
repeated it over and over. That's it. She was proud
of it. She would get up there in front of
people to put me in and I won't take Trump down.
I won't get Trump, go go get Trump. I'm oa put. Well,
she kind of went a little overboard when she decided

(07:17):
to go get Trump. Maybe looks like she might've broke
a few laws along the way, and now understood of
Trump being the one in trouble, Letitia might be going
to prison. She is just a beautiful woman. It's feeling
my soul right now, is Trump?

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Will you sue him for us?

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Oh, we're going to be real last to going into
the office of Attorney General every day, suing him and
then going home so I know my name personally. Yeah,
that was a pretty much her job will be a
wake up every day, attack Trump, and go home. But
she claims she had no vendetta. President of the United

(07:54):
States has complained that I'm engaging in some sort of
political witch hunt, that I've got some personal vendetta against Yeah,
that I campaign. That's not true that president, because he's
not my president.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
He's a illegitimate president.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
Our number, her number. Well, I got the feeling that
she did have a vendetta. It's my own kind of
personal didn't It also could be interpreted as a death threat. Yeah, Well, anyway,
Donald Trump didn't like that way. Shot here he is.
I've been witch hunt since day one. I've been acquisitions
after acquisition.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
Boy, that iconic Trump voice, you just recognize it immediately. Yeah,
when you hear him talk, you know it's Trump. I
mean that a tough question. I mean, I guess sure
it will be tough. Don't even think about it. Just
just go with you.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Goot, who would you rather see go to jail first?
Letitia or Jasmine Crockett?

Speaker 2 (08:51):
I mean Leticia because I'm not sure Jasmine broke a
crime like I just because I don't committed committed. Yeah,
I committed a crime. I I'm just because I don't
like her. Did she break the law or.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Did she Maybe they could go in at the same time,
you know, roommates or whatever, says their sisters, that's up
to them. How would that evening put nobody? How does
that even work? You ever think about that? I never
think about that, you know, I think about it a lot.
I don't. Yeah, Now I control your mind or your
mind will control you.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
Mister backed me up on this. I know I'm not
the only one. I mean, well, I thought.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
I'll just see some big just walking just right over here,
right everybody way right over here. I swear I promised
you right over there. They just it's a right, I'll
just I'll just cut walk. I've seen it, seen me
see it, so in my head, I'm like, no, I
gotta go, man, I'm all stay tuned for more. Waltman Johnson?
You know, is that right? What did?

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Uh? It turns out he parked his car outside of
somebody else's baby mama house and now they're they're pretty
upset about it. I guess, well, you can understand that
that happened. Sure, well, look, Chiquavian is in quite a
bit of trouble. We'll be following that story throughout it.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
You got that right, or boiled? You see what happened?
Mm hmmm.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Somebody emailed us and said, cracker Barrel, what y'all thoughts?

Speaker 1 (10:04):
I will tell you this. I don't know if y'all
mentioned this. Cracker Barrel did not have a good day
on the market yesterday, closed down like twelve percent or
something like that. That is approximately if you like to
put it in dollar figures, Okay, I do, one hundred
million dollars they lost yesterday. That could have been worse
because at some point during the trading day the stock

(10:26):
was down more. It was down two hundred million dollars
early on, and then it kind of recovered half of that,
so only down one hundred million dollars. A unpopular opinion.
I'm gonna share it incoming. Are you ready for canny invested?
Any of that? You usually do? You jump on these

(10:48):
trends and expect things to go, you know, really up
or really down, and sometimes you're right as you probably
could guess.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
I'm about to make a I'm about to give some
unsolicited investment advice.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
Oh, I thought you were about to make a confession,
because you Catholic boys do that, all right.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
I haven't been I'll admit I haven't been this cracker
barrel like in the last several months. I haven't been
there in a while. I've had it many times. I
do like the food, and I will tell you that
the decor, while charming to me, was never the reason
I went. I went for omelets and bacon and meat
loaf and stuff.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
But seeing stuff hung up on the walls that made
it look like an old timey country store or country
home or barn or shop or whatever, that was kind
of nice. Besides changing, you know, they took away the
cracker from the logo, and they took away the barrel,
and now it's just words. They also took all the

(11:43):
stuff down on the walls and the inside, so it
sounds like what I'm picturing here, the new cracker barrel.
Have you ever been to the cafeteria in a hospital.
The feeling is gonna look a lot like that. Well,
I looked at it already. I don't know if it
looks like a hospital.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
I think it looks more like chipping Joanna Gaines style bakery,
like that place in Waco our listeners, a giant clock
on the wall, Magnolia Bakery.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
She likes a giant clock and Praline. You used to
love watch that show where she'd coming out, tear a
wall down, put up a giant clock, and stick some
plants in the yard. Whoo, everybody got excited.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Okay, all I'm trying to say, is this spell yet
If the food didn't change and the service is still
about the same, and the prices didn't change either, in
a few months from now, are you going to care
that they redecorated. Yep, really, I'm gonna care you are Yep.
I don't know the end of It's the end.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
Of an era. What I see Cucker Barrel's done for.
It's gone, it's history. They might as well have just
changed the name completely to a bland, plain, old, tasteless
vanilla restaurant. But the food's still the same, right is
you going to prove that the food changed? Sometimes it
ain't just about the food, Okay, Atmosphere is what he's
talking about. Atmosphere.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
You get delivery every morning on this radio show, right,
not every morning, but often we get it. Sometimes it's
eye hops, Sometimes it's what a burger, Sometimes it's a
taco place.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Whatever.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
If I had somebody walk in here right now with
Cracker Barrel food and you're gonna be in this room anyway,
and it's a meat loaf or an omelet or whatever
you like to order, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
That's different than going to the restaurant, ain't it? It
really is? But no, exactly, I'm gonna have to say
no to Cracker Barrel now because I don't give in
to the week and the woke the way Cracker Barrel did.
I'm not giving in on it, Okay. I'm just saying,
is it woke? We saw like that's woke? Well, when's
the last time you went in there. They just I

(13:36):
could just see it on TV yesterday. I had a
big story about how woke cracker barrel just got. But
that's what someone told you. Did you experience it for yourself.
I don't need to go. I'm just saying I don't
seen what they've done. They messed it all up. What
about you, mister Keneth? You I have been in a
cracker barrel once in my entire life. Well, you're too
good for cracker barrel. You're too good for cracker barrel.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
You're too good for meat loaf and omelets at bacon
and a rocking chair, too good for a wholesome family happiness.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
I'm I just I feel like there are places I
feel more comfortable. Let's just put it that way. Did
Jesus not forgive Billy Ed? Did Jesus not forget forgive me?
He'd know he did.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
He died for your sins, and I'm asking you to
forgive crack I was even born.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Guys. Okay, okay, what if they change it back? No,
it's too late now, it's too low doot alright, Well,
what if somebody takes a dump in the punch bowl
and then you find out about it and somebody fishes
it out of there? Are you good to go with
a punch now? All right? Every time? About what? I
don't took a crap ball over the cracker barrel punch bowl.
Is this a real crap in the punch bowl?

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Or is this like that scene in Caddyshack where it
turned out to be a Snickers bar.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom. That was funny. Yeah,
it was nutty too. What never mind? You mean like crazy? Yes?

Speaker 2 (14:53):
Yes, that's what we meant anyway. Uh, okay, So and
you buy a Miller.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Lite beer after they did that stupid thing they did?
We did not even remembering what brand you're mad at.
It wasn't Miller Lite. It was Budwiser, Okay, I trusting
you to see if you remember. And I didn't like
it before. I didn't buy any Butterlin after they did
that training any thing? Did you? Generally? I am white trash? Generally,
I'm why weren't you more? Generally? I like blue collar stuff.

(15:18):
I usually do. One thing I don't like is like
boring bland beer. I don't like it.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
I don't like Miller like cores light I don't like.
I don't like any and bud light and not for me.
It tastes like what carbonated urine. I don't want to
drink it. I've never liked that beer.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
That's not your thing, and I get it, And you
guys won't agree with me on this.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Give me a hazy ipa, give me a chocolate milk logger,
give me a orange stout or whatever's like something weird.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Chocolate or orange or something in your beer. I just
like beer, beg and or oll beer. Beer's pretty good.
You ever have a fall staff? I don't want a
lone Star. I don't want an Alamo. I don't want
a fall staff. I want an interesting goal. Then you
might as well stop talking about beer. Ain't nobody gonna
take you serious.

Speaker 2 (15:56):
I want a beer that's got a pairwell with brisket
or cheese. Beer, that's what you want. I think a
trans beer would be like a sider.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
W mean, it's not beer, it's chocolate or something or
orange stick, an orange slice in your beer. That's exotic.
Where you at the Philippines or someplace? Now? Did the
orange slice hurt you? Are you hurt by the orange slice? Oh?

Speaker 2 (16:18):
Yes, sir, what it's a garnage first of all. Second
of all, garnish never hurt anybody.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Well, just let's let's let's just go ahead and rapt
us disagreement up about food or beverages, except that you're wrong.
I got it. Okay, Now we'll accept that you and
Barack Obama agree on some things. And I don't think
I want to be held up against that. What kind
of beer does does Obama love? I'm talking about food now,

(16:45):
Barack Obama loves some ketchup on his wienie? And is
that true or did it say he don't like ketchup
on his because he's no, he agrees with.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
You, because he's pandering to people in Chicago. According to
what I'm reading here, Barack Obama's favorite beers are Guinness
and that yung ling thing that they say it's the
oldest brewery in American American Maid. Yeah, yeah, that's what
they claim. Yeah see that's a boring beer to me.
It's great, It's American great. Okay, howbout where do the
email go? Somebody send us an email? But you and
Barack Obama, me and Barack Obama don't put ketchup on

(17:18):
our hot talg Yeah, me, Barack Obama and everybody else
that knows how to eat a hot dog.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
I'm sorry if you like it. The world is coming
to an end. Kenny Webster agrees with Obama. He has
come out against ketchup on his wiener. Okay, and yeah,
and we also both wore shoes today. I don't know
you and Barack Obama just two peas in a pod. Yeah,
whatever he likes Kenny likes. Isn't that nice? I'm sorry.
Don't use where you came up with the whole idea, now,

(17:44):
isn't it.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Don't you drink apple juice? And you know who else
liked apple juice? Hitler? Ain't off Hitler drank apple juice?
You and ain't Off Hitler just sitting there squeezing apples
into a cup. Zipsip zip, zip, sip all day long.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Yeah. Well he was before my time. But Baracan, you
still have plenty of time to get together. You think
I'm gonna hang out with Barack Obama?

Speaker 2 (18:03):
No, I don't know, Like what if I could get
secrets from him about the government, like what's in Roswell?
Remember that time we all went to Roswell and we
tried to storm the place. Yeah, showed up and there
was a keg party going on, barely even remember that. Now, see,
if we were pretend friends with Barack Obama, he would
have let us in and seen the alien autopsy.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Here's a fun question. Can any of you name a
single corporation run by a female that has gotten better
since she took it over? Oh? Brother, don't get me started.
Oh that might be more than you want to take
a bite out of. Right there.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
I've made this point on the radio before. I mean,
look what they did to Disney, Look what they did
to playbollsh Sure, look what they did to athlet his
daughter take it over for a while. They started putting
articles in there. No, I just thought of one. Linda McMahon.
Wwe is she?

Speaker 1 (18:56):
I think she's running the educational system.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
Yeah, but she was briefly in charge of pro wrestling,
wouldn't she?

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Now name two? You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
I was waiting to more to flight recently, and I
noticed that the pilot was a female.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
Which I thought was cool. I've never seen a woman
fly a plane. I mean I didn't actually see her
fly of the plane, because honestly, I caught a different flight.
This is the Walton and Johnson Show
