So I have the earbuds. I posted a poll. Yeah,

talking about it, and then I put on my answer

This is whatever really looked into this the poll and
whether or not you should wear earbuds instead of the
over the ear.

in the poll for a.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Vote over the ear or new earbuds.

you think I should use?

watch you fluster around with those stupid things. But you're
the one who started you know, you started iter. I
mentioned it to you, but then you jumped on you
started it. I jumped on it, but it was in
your initial ideas. Don't put that on me. Well, so
here's the deal.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
I'm going to use these from eight to from six
to eight, what see how I feel? And then at
eight I'm going to switch it to the other one.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
I feel this is too much. This is so ridiculous.

the freak show. We have two shows left. We have
to do this. That's the end of the year. Way
too much.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
I don't. I don't want to watch with those who cares.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
It does feel comfortable? Does feel a little for your ears? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (02:58):
And then you don't you know, you won't have to
attention as much.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
I also thought, I want to do I want to
ditch the wire and get one of these ones where
you like plug in like a Bluetooth thing, Jack Jack,
And then I.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
Could just really bothering you. You're really connected?

Speaker 2 (03:14):
You feel restricted? Okay, you're wire?

Speaker 6 (03:19):
What wi You're acting like it's wrapped around your body.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
Sorry, You're you're moving pretty well for a guy who
had a debilitating injury yesterday. What what the heck?

Speaker 2 (03:34):
I thought? You were down for the count.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
I was on the It was like, my baby's been
super fussy, very colicky, very every day. I know, and
I swear to God it gets worse every day. I
swear to God, Like I don't want to complain about it,
because everyone has kids, So if you complain, you're just
you're complaining, You're preaching to the choir.

Speaker 4 (03:53):
He did say, what every single morning when I come
in here yesterday was a rough one all over every
single day. And I go, okay, well I got it
at this point. And then you're going through a hard time. Yeah,
baby's colicky.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yeah, you know, and he's six weeks old, and I
read online six weeks is peak collic allegedly, I don't know,
in the past six weeks, then they haven't been as bad. Really, well,
it wasn't this the bad. The fussiness really started like
two weeks ago, like that's when I got out of control.
But like at a month is when he kind of
got out of control. But this fussy, like he's not

(04:27):
even sleeping an hour long anymore, like every like the
forty minutes he's up, it sucks.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
Sucks. It's the worst right now.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
So so like I was holding him, and I'm doing
my stuff and Haley's holding him, and and then around
like five point fifteen, I had something to go do. Uh,
I had a recovery thing that happened at six. So
I was I'm gonna jump in the shower and I
go to take a shower and I'm just like, I'm
still like I'm just standing there, and all of a sudden,
my right mid back just locks up, and I'm just like,

(04:54):
oh my god, And I thought, oh no, no, and like,
not only it's not, it's weird because it's it feels
like somebody like stabbed me in the back, like it's
like you know, and it's like super sore all of
a sudden, and it's just excruciatingly painful because I've had
my back lock up, but not be this painful. And
I went down and I'm on my knees in the

(05:14):
shower in the bathroom because I hadn't gotten the shower yet,
still have my clothes on op I was just about
to run the water and get it warmed up a
little bit, and I'm on my knees and I called
my wife and I go, hey, you need to come
to the bathroom, and help me get out of the bathroom,
go to the Yeah, because I can't move like my back.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
I'm like, you didn't do your normal thing where you
just yell hey.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
She's on the other side of the house.

Speaker 6 (05:41):
I wouldn't even hear the child wow. And and you're
to the point where you can't even crawl out of
the bathroom.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
No, it was the war. It was some of the
It was gnarly.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
It was like, like I said, had my back go out,
but not pain like usually just locks up and you
go down. This was painful, and I was laying on
the I got to the bed and I was laying
face down the and this was faced down in the
bed for like a solid thirty minutes. And then eventually
we have a movable base, so.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
We will.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
Is your wife laughing at you at all? Because or
is she taking this serious? Because I know, oh she is. Well,
Because sometimes it's hard, like when my husband he suffers
from a case of the passiouties where he'll become like incapacity.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
To find that funny. No, but oh my god, it's
a certain positions. Left had a husband that was telling me, well, he.

Speaker 6 (06:35):
Doesn't say I do, but sometimes you're at a certain
position and you're trying to drag them to the bed,
and it just seems it's it's an it's a show,
and so at sometimes Thor laughs at videos of people
getting injured.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
No, I wasn't too much pain. No one's laughing. I
was legituminately in pain.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
Okay, So I didn't want and like it was so
paint and it was right where like I had my
back surgery and I know I had my issue twenty
two years ago where I had an aneurysm in my
back twenty two years ago.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
It's been a really long time.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Yeah, but this was like so painful in that one
spot that I started freaking out that, oh my god,
it's happening again.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
What else it hasn't helped it.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
You're a hypochontract yeah, and you go to the worst
possible situation.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Oh definitely every single time.

Speaker 7 (07:16):
Ye.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
So yeah that is true. Not great. So we were
thinking this is the end, I'm paralyzed again. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Oh, I just was thinking something is wrong. This is
more than just a back thing because it was so painful.
And then I had a thought, Well they did after
my back surgery when I was sixteen, they did an
angiogram like six months later. So they went through They
basically went through every vertebrae of my spine to make
sure there was no more messed up blood vessels. So
that was like a five hour surgery. So like they

(07:43):
cleared me, so I should be fine. So I thought
about that too, and then I also and then like
when we got the adjustment base up and I was
just laying there. When you're sitting there doing nothing, straight up,
you're not in pain. It's just when I'm moving. Yeah,
So like I'm laying there, and I started googling.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
Why do you do this?

Speaker 8 (08:00):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah, I do this? Why do you do this? Bad?
It gets bad? Doctor Google will freak. Yeah, do I
have a blood clot in my lung? What?

Speaker 4 (08:07):
Why would you Why would that affect your back?

Speaker 1 (08:09):
Because like the pain was right around the lung area.
I think you do would take your TJ. Watt.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
I'm not TJ. Watt.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
He had a collapse lung now and when I would
take a breath, it would hurt. Oh god, that's scary.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah, because you hurt your back.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
You listen, you're walking around you know, you got the
big show as a child, and you're walking around with this,
you know, fifty pound baby and and you know you're
carrying them around non stop your what you know it's
that's gonna hurt your back.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
It just was because but it was so using muscles.
You never right right before, You're right, that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
When it happened so out of nowhere and I was
just in the bathroom, wasn't holding anything, and all of
a suddens but whoa, and I just went down.

Speaker 4 (08:53):
You just got up, I'm sure and you know it
probably affected googling. If you have a blood clotting in your.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Long either blood clot or some tumor that was pushing up.
That's what that's what.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
I'm sure it's not as you.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
Have been really stressed out the last year I have.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah, that's so like what I am eating? And then
I was like eating what in general, I'm not not eating.
I'm eating because the tumor would have caused you to
not eat.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Ye lose your up.

Speaker 8 (09:23):
Okay, you're going to say like you were eating, well,
I didn't know where you're going with and then I howked.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Up a loogie to make sure that there was no
blood in it.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
Okay, smart, thank you, that's not smart that's the opposite
of smart. That's one of the dumbest things. Once again,
timely reference.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
I don't know who they are. I don't either.

Speaker 8 (09:49):
My mom always said it. Yeah, it's like old school,
like saying it was bopsy, is it bo se?

Speaker 2 (09:54):
I don't know. That is so old. I don't know.
I have no idea. I've never Yeah, I've never left.

Speaker 5 (10:00):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
So that my wife comes in and she's going through
it right now. I love her to death.

Speaker 4 (10:06):
She just gave birth to Andre, the giant.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
She did.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
She then was in a car accident.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Part of proclams.

Speaker 4 (10:14):
Sure, oh yeah, yeah, she's got she's got a lot
of star going on. This guy over here complaining and
you know I twisted my back. Yeah that's not great.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
I was in a lot of pain. She's been miserable
for love almost a year. She doesn't need this right
now for so well, I I wanted to. I've been
to my credit.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
What oh, you're giving yourself. I've been giving yourself. I've
been doing I've been helping out as much as nobody.
Nobody's thinking, nobody's thinking.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
So my point is I don't I would never not.
I feel bad not doing more than I can. So
I would never want to like fake it and just
lay and sit there like that's crazy because it would
just drive me nuts, especially with like bottles everywhere. I
can't have it, you know, I can't. She comes in
and she kind of hit that I'm faking it, and
I'm just like, are you out of your mind?

Speaker 2 (11:03):
You pulled a hammy? Yeah, like, and she's like, I
was in a car accident.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
I still got to do stuff, and I can't walk, like,
I can't move right now, like, so get like, I
got the heating pad on, I'm loosing it up and
once it loosens up, I'll be able to move, but
I can't move right now. So then there was just
a lot of things said that we're a little.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
Intended. I fed the big guy. After I fed him, apologies.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Were said, okay, and yeah, and I slept in the
guest room, and that that mattress and the guest.

Speaker 4 (11:36):
Rooms and for context, yes, he didn't sleep in the
guest room because they got into an argument. He sleeps
in the guest room now because that's the only way
he's going to sleep. Yes, And this is the plan
that they've sort of worked out for night. Thank you
people being oh no, no.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
So we slept in the guest room. But I think
the mattress isn't helping either. I need a firm mattress.
I'm a firm guy. I'm a firm guy. That what
happens to my back.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
The floor. I got up this morning and he was
crying at four thirty and my wife just looked and
I was like, you need to sleep. She refuses.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
She she tries to nap, but I'm like, you need something.
Hear that she's got a nap.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Hopefully today she napps.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
That's not good. Every day she needs to nap.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
She's like she's.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
On night, dude, she's got to. As soon as you
get home, she should crash out.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
For hopefully today she naps. Yeah, that's not good. Hopefully
my back keeps loosen. I mean, you have like an
rub it don't You don't want that. You don't want
that will be paralyzed right to your lung.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
Okay, this is out of Sorrento Valley. There's a family
that wants some answers because of what's going on with
their dog.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (12:52):
So they have a two year old Golden Retriever named Bruno.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
Oh so cute. Well, I thought, we don't talk of Okay,
we're past that. So yeah, golden retriever named Bruno.

Speaker 8 (13:06):
We're never going to be past that, yea, but you
have to okay.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
I thought it was okay, my bad.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (13:14):
And I guess Bruno hangs out, you know, inside most
of the time, but when the family's home, they let
him out in the backyard. Guess, like most dogs, he
loves running around the backyard doing all kinds of dog stuff.
And it all started a few months ago, the family says.
Back in September, they received a letter and as soon
like in the mail, and as soon as they opened it,
they knew it was weird and different because it was

(13:36):
like a blank piece of paper with just typing all
in red letters and no signature, and it basically said.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Go shut your damn dog up.

Speaker 6 (13:50):
It goes on to say that the dog barks all
night and you need to shut your dog up. And
the family thought that was weird because the dog's only
outside when they're home. And yeah, it's a dog and
it barks, but not like crazy.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
See, there's the thing.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
So I let my dogs outside in their backs out, okay, And.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Even with these references, I can't.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
So I let my dog's outside in the backyard, and
if they start barking, I let it.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
It's okay.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
I'm okay with it for a couple of minutes, and
then once it goes off for a couple minutes, it sucks.
But you got to go out there and I yell
at him or bring him inside. Yeah, because that's the
last thing. I don't want to be that guy. Because
there's a neighbor that does do that. It sucks even
if it's during the day. So these people saying, he's
only out during the day and he barks, and that's
so clearly they let this dog bark.

Speaker 6 (14:39):
In my eyes, they're saying there, they only let the
dog out when they're home, and they monitor it. And
they even say the dog has a buzz caller, so
they'll buzz.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
It's oh okay. So they're saying they're on top of it.
Yeah exactly.

Speaker 6 (14:52):
They're saying, like, sorry, unless we're home and not hearing it.
Like and then the letter says the dog barks all night,
and they go, that's crazy.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
The dog sleeps in bed with us all night.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
So it's impossible.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
I mean, again, he's a normal dog.

Speaker 6 (15:10):
So there is occasional barking, but like not crazy obscene barking.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
That's doesn't it's not happening all night. Yes, at least
this is what this said.

Speaker 6 (15:19):
Yes, at least according to the homeowner. So that was
back in September they got that letter. Well, I guess
it was just a few days ago. When you know,
they come home, let the dog out in the back.
The dog runs out in the back and they immediately
noticed that the dog is chewing on something, and they're like, oh,
what did the dog get into? So they go out
to see what the dog is chewing on and that's

(15:41):
when they find two bundles of meat tied with a string,
and inside the meat is rat poison and metal hooks.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Oh my god.

Speaker 6 (15:55):
Oh man, and their dog had already been chewing on
it for a minute, so they don't know how much
got down. They didn't know at that point how many
bundles there were, so they immediately go straight to the vet,
and the vet immediately induces vomiting.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
On the dog. Hydrogen peroxide knows it.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, yeah, if your dog ever shoes or bite something
or swallows something and you don't know what to do,
immediately spray hydrogen peroxide down's mouth it.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
It'll throw it up. Oh geez, where did you learn that?
The vet told us.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
And then it works because Watson, my dog does stuff
like this, not rat poison, not rat poison hooks, and
he would probably he would if he could.

Speaker 6 (16:37):
Yeah, So I guess according to them, the vet said,
thank god you got here so fast, because we got
it out before it made its way into the intestinal track,
because rat poison and hooks did come up when the dog.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (16:51):
And so the woman says, she doesn't back up to
an open space. It's literally neighbors on all sides. So
she fully believes aighbor did this. Yeah, and she wants
like she wants answers. Clearly she's reached out to the police.
They say, yeah, they're they're going to look into it.
But it's just crazy.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
I know what I would do.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
I don't want to know.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
This is a very easy thing for me. Clearly the
neighbors of Psycho. So we don't know which one. We
don't know which one. But I'm gonna turn my cycle
up a little bit. But what and I'm going to
take the meat with the stick in it and stuff
and a baseball that in one hand, a baseball bat
in the other hand. And I'm gonna knock on the door,
and I'm going to interrogate each neighbor and figure out
which is I think you'll be arrested if you're okay,

(17:39):
because I'm gonna let the neighbor know if this happens again,
their kneecaps are going to be gone.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
But it's.

Speaker 4 (17:51):
What I said at the very beginning of this door
gets weirdly, this didn't happen.

Speaker 6 (17:58):
Uh, Well, this family took a different tack, Dick. They
sent letters to all the neighbors seeing anybody do anything,
and they have added cameras to the back of their hole.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
So every evening they got to figure out what's going on.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
Cameras too. But I also know some people. Guy, what
does that even mean?

Speaker 1 (18:15):
I know some guys. I know some guys with screw
maybe my buddy Lou. But you don't know. I'm sure
you would, but I don't know what. You don't know
which neighbors. So you're just gonna beat the crap out
of all three neighbors. Well, no, that's big, Lou. I
don't think that you just said that.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
Your friend Lewis the screw loose.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
Basically, sometimes Louie does have meat hooks, but their hands
hands hands, but kind of different. No, either way, this
is horrific, and it's and it sounds like the person
is whacked obviously with everything. But if their dogs not
even barking at night, it's so unwarranted. I don't understand.

Speaker 6 (18:57):
Told me be somebody else's dog and they just think
it's theirs, or.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Maybe even if it is someone else, you don't do that, psycho.

Speaker 4 (19:05):
Yeah, pretty crazy stuff.

Speaker 6 (19:06):
I got split feelings, like you know, like, Okay, if
you have one weed in your yard, or if you're
in a drought like back off, leave me alone. But
if somebody has a car parked on their lawn or
their house looks straight out of the movie The Burbs,
then yeah, I would appreciate HOA in that.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
I guess. I mean to me, Yeah, you live there,
you own the place. You can do what you want
with a place where just for that front yard.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
I never have and I never will.

Speaker 8 (19:38):
But and it's I don't so since I never have
and I never will, like it doesn't even make sense
to me.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Like also the fees.

Speaker 8 (19:45):
When I hear from people about how expensive their HOA
fees are like my mom lives downtown in a high
rise and like it's like it's a number how much
she pays for h that I can't even grasp.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
Like what's weird about that? Specifically is the building? Because
what a lot of the HOA fees go for maintenance
on like you know, common areas and like swimming, tennis
or or like the grounds, you know, like keeping up
with the grounds and things like that for just a
high rise, Like what are you paying for?

Speaker 2 (20:15):
What's the h.

Speaker 6 (20:16):
Especially the ones near the water, Like their h as
will be like fifteen hundred.

Speaker 4 (20:21):
A month, And it's like what they what do they
go to.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
The exterior of the building?

Speaker 4 (20:26):
They do it every time? Like how often do they
take care of the exterior of the building?

Speaker 8 (20:31):
Like the pool this is they don't have a big
pool with hundreds of residents here.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
It's pretty fifteen.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
There is highway robbery man. So yeah, I'm not a
big fan of hos. And then you get into the
situation around the holidays. If you're going to ever criticize
my decorations outside, we're gonna have a problem. We're gonna
have a problem here, Like Nah, you get out of here. Uh,
and then you know, you get to and I understand

(21:00):
your guys's point of like you have a lot of
times in HOA rules like you have to take down
your Christmas decoration by a certain point. Oh really, if
it's like January fifteenth, I totally agree with that. But
if you tell me that they got to be down
by I don't know, twenty sixth, that get the hell
out of here.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Like, no, that's I think January fifth is a good
fifteenth little while Oh you can't have it, I mean
almost February at that point.

Speaker 4 (21:26):
But I mean maybe I'm busy. I'll get them down
all right.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Well, I know I know a crazy haired woman that
will be over there with a note pen that HOA stuff.

Speaker 4 (21:35):
Saying that she's torn on Ha's was the biggest laugh
on HS.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
She is an ho you'd love to work for an Ha.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
I could see Sky with a notepad around Eddie's church,
dream job, looking around, dream job, looking around, looking for
she'd be looking for something.

Speaker 6 (21:49):
No, I would love to work for an Hoa and
be the one to write the tickets.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
That is a dream, but dream.

Speaker 6 (21:56):
But I do get some nitpick a little too much
like I do.

Speaker 4 (22:01):
I do have to admit that, oh thanks, Well, there
is one neighborhood that is dealing with one of these
nitpicky hoas that people are not big fans of, and
the community is actually in an uproar about it.

Speaker 6 (22:16):
Yeah, so this is a community with hoa. These people
bought the corner lot. As soon as you enter the community,
like you see the community sign, and then their house
is the first house right on the corner. They've lived
there for six years, and of course they love Christmas,
they love their community, and they've always decorated. But because

(22:39):
they're that prime corner front lot, they've always had a dream,
and that dream is for a massive inflatable Santa right
in their yard to greet everyone as they enter the community.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
That's incredible, one of the biggest I really like where
I live. I really like my house. It's awesome, but
it is a massive disappointment for any holiday, I don't
get any trick or treaters, and then nobody really gets
to see my Christmas decoration in the back, and so
like I put all this effort into my Christmas decorations.

(23:16):
It's kind of for me and kind of for Amazon
delivery drivers. I do like when the Amazon delivery driver
pulls up and he like goes to you know, run
to do the delivery. But then he but like he stops,
looks at my decorations for a minute and then kind
of gazes at them, which I love, and then he
delivers the thing. Because my window, my front window, faces

(23:40):
that lawn, the lawn where all my stuff is, and
I enjoy there like stopping. They may be like confused
at like what the heck is going on here, which
is fine, but but but there, at least take a
moment to appreciate it, because otherwise nobody else is ever
going to see him.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
It sucks. I live on this cul de sect thing
and nobody goes there. Yeah, awful suck.

Speaker 4 (24:02):
Alright, I'm gonna move to so I can get a
better front lawn so that people can enjoy my Christmas decorations.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
My neighborhood. People walking by all nable.

Speaker 4 (24:14):
I need to get a bullpoof vest though.

Speaker 6 (24:21):
Oh okay, well these people, Eddie, they got the prime.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Lot and they're like, we want to use it, so jealous.

Speaker 6 (24:27):
But as you probably well know, the really big over
the top inflatables and stuff they cost a pretty penny
and so they have been saving for the last few years,
knowing one year, one Christmas, we're gonna buy that Santa
and put them in our yard. And that is what
they were finally able to do this year. And on

(24:49):
December first, they put up a thirty foot inflatable Santa Claus.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Yes, do they have a two story house? Yes? Is
Santa a taller than their two stories? They're awesome. Yes,
it's amazing.

Speaker 4 (25:04):
I get worried about wind. You know, I know that
they're I know they're locked down. Yeah, but I still
think at some point those things are gonna They're so big,
they're flying, They're flying away.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
He's going back to the north.

Speaker 6 (25:16):
December first, they put it up. December fourth, they got
a letter from the h AWAY say they need to
take it down or phase fives because they have violated
the h Oay rule of excessive excessive decorations.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
Well, are you going to tell me what's excessive or not?

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Well, I guess they're the h A and that's what
they do. Guy in charge of it. So the husband and.

Speaker 6 (25:42):
Wife are like, Okay, we got to pick our battles.
Is this a battle we're gonna pick or are we
just going to be like Okay, we live in an
h o A.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
They decided to fight. Yes.

Speaker 6 (25:52):
Yeah, the whole entire neighborhood rallied around them, to the
point where other neighbors started buying massive inflatables. Other names
started putting out signs in their yard that say we
stand with Santa.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
They started fundraising.

Speaker 6 (26:09):
They were fundraising saying if you get fined, we'll cover
the fines because Santa isn't coming down. Santa stays, well,
they just got a letter from the h o A
saying we're backing off the community appreciation Santa, and you're
allowed to keep it this year. So well, people are

(26:33):
now wondering what does that mean? Does that mean next
year we're gonna do this all over again.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
It's a risky precedent because if they give in this
and then somebody does something in a month or two,
and my response.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Would be if you if you, let's say you do
a massive flag.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
I mean, this is about it says excessive Christmas decorations.
It's pretty specific.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Scessive doesn't say Christmas.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
It doesn't matter. Once the HOA gives is in.

Speaker 1 (27:00):
Now the response if somebody does something the h doesn't like,
it's gonna be well, you gave into them.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
What's the difference?

Speaker 1 (27:05):
You see, you can't you gotta follow if if you
if you can't let one person slip, because if you
let one parton slip, then every I'd.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
Be like, well why can't I do if they did it?
But what's the difference.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
Doesn't like what you're saying, you're siding with the h
O A in this way you want this situation or what.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
I don't even know. I don't think that's because I
don't think that it really is bad.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
Okay, here we go, you guys, I am, you know,
gearing up for this. Every every morning this week, we
have been giving away our military Christmas bonus and boy,
these stories it's tough, you know. You know, you hear
these stories of these unbelievable warriors and what they're going
through and it just breaks your heart, uh, you know.

(27:55):
And they're so appreciative of this military Christmas bonus because
really they're not even thinking of the selves. That's what
always gets me is they don't care about what they're
going through themselves, but it's their family that they care about.
They want to make sure that their kids don't go without,
their wife doesn't go without, or whatever it is going
on with them, they just want to make sure that
their family has a wonderful holiday. And so that's why

(28:17):
we love these men and women who serve their incredible people,
and so that's why we do our Military Christmas Bonus
every single year. So it is time for our latest
Military Christmas Bonus. Let's talk to Alexis, who is joining
this morning.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Haws it going.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Good morning, Alexis, Good morning, Annie, how are you good?
So talk to me about Seth, your husband. Why did
you feel that Seth should be nominated for the Military
Christmas Bonus?

Speaker 7 (28:47):
Well, I personally think he's the hardest working person I know.
He's been in the military maybe for eight years and
actually just re enlistened for and what branches in he's
in the Navy, Yes, yeah, and so he I mean,
they sacrifice a lot. He sacrifices so much for our

(29:08):
family from obviously the daily stress of just working in
the Navy, in the military, and the added Jesse puts
on himself to be the best he can be to
advance in his career. And it's hard when their way
and so is kind of numbing the part of when
he's in the military and the times that he is

(29:28):
kept away from being and doing what he loves the
most of being the dad. Right, So he loves the
family and he has a huge heart. So it's it's
great to be able to phenomenal. Oh, I'm so sorry
my own arm went off.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
In the he's ready for school?

Speaker 4 (29:46):
Yeah, trust me, I get it. How many kids do
you guys have?

Speaker 2 (29:50):
We have two.

Speaker 7 (29:51):
Our older one is Wyatt, he just turned four, and
our little eighteen months old. He'll be turning eight months
eighteen months old and actually Christmas. His name is Walker.

Speaker 4 (30:01):
Oh love Walker is a very popular name.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Is there? You go for it? It is? I love it?

Speaker 4 (30:08):
Uh? And alexis I know that this was a tough year.
You guys went through a lot of loss this year, right.

Speaker 7 (30:14):
Yes, we had multiple loved ones pass away, and the
closest one to me my grandma. She's been a huge
part of my life and she passed away in October
while Stuff actually was away on a work trip. So
I mean him and I we can jump right into
a survival mode that this was the first time he
was away. Well, I had to take care of both

(30:36):
of the boys and grieve. Obviously, you don't plan for
that and don't really know how to handle that type
of situation until it comes. And so unfortunately, after a
couple of days that my grandma passed, we got word
from Best's family up in Oregon that his father passed away.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
Sorry, a little most I understand.

Speaker 7 (31:00):
And so it's been a testing time. So you know,
this nomination is just one way of saying thank you
to my husband and thank you for him giving me
strength for all the things he does for us and
loves how so much for our family.

Speaker 4 (31:14):
Yeah, and it sounds like you guys need a little
holiday spirit and holiday lift up after you know, all
that stuff.

Speaker 7 (31:22):
Yes, it's been quite the sadness around the family, and
obviously with the two little boys, we just want to
keep the smiles going. And it's hard sometimes when you have,
you know, adult stuff to attend to.

Speaker 4 (31:34):
Oh yeah, no doubt about it. Well, Seth is on
the line as well with us. Let's talk to Seth.
How's it going, Seth?

Speaker 2 (31:41):
Very good morning, Garth, how you do? Good Man?

Speaker 4 (31:43):
Good to talk to you. So I'm sure you're listening
to your wife Alexis talk about all the stuff that's
been going on and things like that, and you know,
it sounds like it's been a little bit of a
tough year.

Speaker 9 (31:54):
Yeah. Yeah, a little bit of life happens and you
go through it. Yeah, there's a We've had multiple losses,
a big two very impactful men in my life, my
Grandpa Doug and my uncle Vic, a man who kind
of like saved my life out of Oregon. And then obviously,
as Alexis mentioned, her Grandma Roz who loved the kids

(32:15):
and the kids loved her. And then my dad was
very unexpected. And then even the same day that we
got word my dad suddenly passed away, my mom's mother
actually had a stroke and was in the hospital as well,
and by the grace of God, somehow she came out
of it and she's back home. We just were up

(32:36):
in Oregon last weekend actually with the kids for the
my dad's service, and we were able to see her
and she's it's like nothing ever happened, you know.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
So that's thank God for.

Speaker 4 (32:46):
Yeah, that is great, and it does sound like you
guys are a good team with with dealing with all
this stuff, right.

Speaker 9 (32:55):
Yeah, well we got we got a great support base too,
with my mom's mother was in the hospital and she
flew down here to watch our youngest walker, when Alexis
flew with Wyatt so we could go to Philadelphia for
her grandmother's funeral service, and then everything from Alexis's mom
lives here. Fran She's just so so helpful and supportive

(33:16):
with us in the family.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
It's just we have a good base here, so that helps,
you know. That's awesome. Man.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
You guys as well. There you go. Congratulations to them.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
We'll have our final military Christmas bonus tomorrow morning. The record, well,
the Aztecs have kicked off their conference play with kind
of an easy win over air Force eighty one to
fifty eight last night at home. BJ Davis scored nineteen

(35:30):
points off the bench to help lead the way. The
Aztecs outscored air Force by twenty points in the second half,
so they kind of ran away with it. Now the
real test begins. They are going to face off against
the number one team in the nation as they will
play Arizona on Saturday, So we'll see what happens in

(35:53):
that one. But I mean, that's gonna be a tough one,
so we'll see what happens there. You know what I
was thinking about, like, how does air Force do anything
with the nil I don't know they like, I don't
can they pay? I don't know how that works. By
the game, the Army and bv endor, Yes, commercials like

(36:14):
like like, you know, paying for players that you can't
really do that because players you got to sign up
for the military to play for them, you know what
I mean. Like, it's kind of a weird deal for
those those guys. I feel bad for them. Another college
football coach has lost their job in sort of a
scandalous way. Ohio University coach Brian Smith was fired yesterday
for what the university is saying was engaging in serious

(36:38):
professional misconduct and participating in activities that reflect unfavorably to
the university. What the hell does that mean? Well, they're
not giving any specifics on what he was doing, but
I mean that sounds really bad.

Speaker 8 (36:53):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (36:53):
The team did make it to a bowl. They're gonna
play UNLV next week in the Frisco Bowl, and so
oh yeah, buddy, So you mean it was a good program.
So I'm just I'm like, what the heck was he doing?
You gotta give us more details than that. You can't
just say that, you know, was he doing the thing?
Was you know, messing around with a staff member? Was
he you know, I don't know, but that's not good.

(37:16):
The Rams will be playing probably their biggest game of
the season tonight as they face off against the Seahawks
on Thursday Night Football with really the division on the line,
while star wide receiver Puka Nakua may not be getting
the calls he is used to after he decided to
come out and criticize the NFL referees on a live stream.

(37:37):
He said that the refs are the worst and make
calls just to get on TV. Yeah, I don't think
that's gonna go over. Well, yes, I don't. I don't
think you can see things like that. Yeah, that's pretty wild.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
Now, you're not gonna get calls at all, just human nature.
You know, they're not going to try to help you,
you know.

Speaker 4 (37:57):
Or if something's close, you go second. That's was calling.
I don't need to get on TV. Yeah, yeah, I
don't know to make that call.

Speaker 2 (38:05):
Like did you see that.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
He tried to get a live streamer into the RAMS
building during the week and Sean McVay told him, no,
what the hell? And apparently on this live stream he
did like anti semitic dance stop. I didn't know, I
don't know. Apparently there was like an anti semic trope
that he did. He probably doesn't know, but it looks bad.
And then he said that if he scores.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
A touchdown, he'll do it and touchdown, but somebody give
him my heads up. I'm assuming somebody.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
And then his brother just got arrested for stealing a
car from a from as a Lakers player. Like what
is Apparently this guy's not like the soft spoken guy
that we all thought he.

Speaker 4 (38:41):
Was attle bit Because that's not good. That's really weird.
What an idiot?

Speaker 2 (38:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
Sports Start is brought to you by Bill how Plumbing,
Heating and air restoration and flood Visit Bill Howe dot
com today. Did you get a Beach Boys shirt?

Speaker 2 (38:58):
My mom? Christmas? Joy?

Speaker 4 (39:03):
That's cool? Take that.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (39:09):
Just yesterday Emily was asking about tipping for the holidays,
wondering about tipping and who to tip and things like that. Uh,
it is a tricky time because like who do you tip?
You give Christmas little bonuses to people that maybe work
on your yard or the mailman, or like who do
we who do we tip?

Speaker 8 (39:27):
Can imagine how many people's sky has to tip out sanity.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
I don't have a staff. I mean there's not the
bathroom attendant.

Speaker 7 (39:36):
I have.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
Security team.

Speaker 1 (39:39):
I don't have a sure food that's gross. If you
have dry off, what gets out of the shower, myself blower.

Speaker 6 (39:51):
Really, no one blows on the body.

Speaker 4 (39:57):
So holiday tipping is always a thing that always comes up,
and you know, I'm not really sure who to tip
and whatever.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
Can you just give cookies as a tip.

Speaker 1 (40:04):
My wife's a big I'm gonna make them a pie,
chick a whole pie.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
That's what she goes for.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Really, she's a big I'm gonna make because her her
great grandma, her grandma's apple pie is like a thing,
so at it.

Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, it's good, it's really good, it's really good.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
So she does that. But she's she's like three pies
behind right now. Our neighbor's gonna get a pie, yeah,
because they spoke up and saw the accident when she
got hit and said they'd be a witness.

Speaker 9 (40:32):
My neighbor.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
My wife's like, I gotta make them a pie. She
also got to make somebody at the barn a pie,
and then another person, so she's three pies by get
on that. I don't know what that's gonna happen. A
lot of pies, not a lot of time.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
So yeah, it is. It is a time where we
start talking thinking about tips and holiday tips and who
gets all that stuff. But this is a normal tipping situation.
This person has gone viral for basically because of how
they handle not getting tipped.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (41:02):
So this is a bartender and she was sharing a
story about how after this thing happened, she kind of
stands by what she did and kind of now has
a new policy about it. And the Internet's split on
if this is cool or not. So I guess she
is a bartender at a very busy like popular bar
slash club. So like when she works, there's like four

(41:26):
or five bartenders behind the bar. And so she was
working and this guy comes to her side of the bar,
and you know, she kind of does mention a little
bit how she's a really good bartender, you know what
I mean, Like her drinks are good.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
No, she's not flirting eddy.

Speaker 4 (41:41):
Her, at least if you're you're a good bartender if
you are flirting.

Speaker 6 (41:46):
Okay, I shouldn't say she's not flirting. That's not what
she was bragging about herself. Top. But this is like
a noun.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
Top would be so out Oh yeah, yawn, he's putting
it all out there. Wow, who money.

Speaker 6 (42:09):
So she says that, you know, she has a good
reputation behind the bar because she can make drinks fast, and.

Speaker 4 (42:14):
She makes that's okay, this is ridiculous.

Speaker 6 (42:16):
I don't know, that's just that's just what she's saying.
Who knows, but whatever. So this guy goes over to
her side of the bar again.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
He goes over to her sad because she makes drinks.

Speaker 6 (42:27):
Well, I want you hear what happens kind of puts
the whole flirting boob thing to rest, at least for me.
So she makes him his order, his drinks, He pays,
He doesn't want to open a tab, he just wants
to pay.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
And then she notices he does not tip.

Speaker 6 (42:44):
And that's to me, why we're not flirting like boobs
out Like he's not going there to try and get
in with her, because if that's the thing, you're definitely tipping, right.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
So he doesn't tip.

Speaker 6 (42:53):
She takes notice, but she says, okay, legally you're not
required to.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
Tip me like that. That's fine.

Speaker 6 (42:59):
I am stand tipping is optional. Well, a little while later,
again there's like five bartenders. Big bar guy comes to
her again to make the drinks, compliments how she made
the drinks, blah bla blah blah.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
She notices again for the second time that night, he
does not tip.

Speaker 4 (43:17):
Let me ask you, did you add that that he
complimented how she made the drink or is that an
actual fact?

Speaker 6 (43:23):
I believe that's a fact that he intentionally, she said,
went to his side of the bar and said to
the point where she said something like, oh, you know,
because she knew he didn't tip, how do you like
the drink? And he complimented it somehow that he complimented,
and she felt he was intentionally coming to her because
of her fast service and her strong drinks. But kick again,

(43:45):
that's her interpretation. So great guy doesn't tip again? All right, whatever,
it's not illegal.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
Well, a third.

Speaker 6 (43:55):
Time guy comes to her at the bar for a
third round of drinks, and that's when she said, Hey,
I'm sorry, I'm not going to be able to make
your drink. Can you please go to another bartender because
you're not tipping and the guys and the guys like what,

(44:15):
I don't legally have to tip? And she also said, yeah,
but you also don't have to keep coming to me.
And I have a whole line of customers and if
they I'd rather take care of them. So can you
please go see another bar?

Speaker 2 (44:29):
Twer?

Speaker 4 (44:29):
Wait, time out. Is this your job? Are you at
work right now? Is your job to make drinks?

Speaker 2 (44:36):
Yes? Yeah, so you're refusing me service right now?

Speaker 6 (44:40):
Uh, she is saying she is not making the drink.
The bar isn't refusing you service. There's a whole group
of bartenders.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
Your job is to make the drink, right But I
have a lot of other customers.

Speaker 4 (44:51):
So what I'm standing right here make drinks.

Speaker 6 (44:53):
So I'm gonna choose to make their drinks and first,
and if you don't want to wait, then you may
want to go see another bartender.

Speaker 2 (45:01):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (45:02):
I I think you probably should tip if you're getting
a drink.

Speaker 2 (45:06):
I always do.

Speaker 4 (45:07):
There is no possible way that you should be able
to say I'm not going to make your drink for
you because you didn't tip. That's insane. That's an insane things.
The fact that you're saying the internet is split on this,
I don't know to understand the other argument it.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Is weird bartender.

Speaker 4 (45:26):
Yeah, it's odd, yes, yeah, or whatever. Yeah, I mean
it is what it is. You know, you again, you
should tip for you know, at a restaurant for a
different things. I get all that, But to say I'm
not going to help you now because you're not serving
that that is, that doesn't make any sense to me.

Speaker 6 (45:46):
Yeah, Like I feel her mistake is saying it out loud,
Like I support her doing.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
It, support her doing it not doing her job.

Speaker 6 (45:53):
Well, I I know the people in the service industry
minimum wage, so.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
The majority she's so good of a bartender. Maybe she doesn't.

Speaker 1 (46:02):
Well, so minimum wage minimum wage now is way more
in California in general.

Speaker 2 (46:09):
Well, they say the.

Speaker 6 (46:10):
Average bartender salary in the US is about twenty four
thousand dollars a year because of what they make, other
states can pay less.

Speaker 2 (46:21):
I don't know if it actually says what state she's in.

Speaker 6 (46:23):
I'm sorry, but anyway, that's the people on the internet
that are defending her. Like, you make your money off
of tips. The majority of tips is how you make
your money. So if somebody is repeatedly not tipping you, yes,
you should be serving and focusing on the people who
are tipping you. So that's my thought. Like, I get

(46:44):
why she did what she did. You just don't say
it out loud. You just ignore the guy and serve
everybody else.

Speaker 2 (46:49):
Yeah, I mean that's probably what I would do.

Speaker 4 (46:51):
It takes twenty seconds to make a drink. You're really
gonna cause this big of a stir no pun intended.

Speaker 8 (46:57):
If there was like not a lot of people at
the bar and it wasn't that crowded of a night, like,
you're gonna eventually I'm going to serve and make him
as drinks. But if there's like two other people that
are you know, the leaning over thing trying to get
attention to the bartender, Yeah, you can help them first.

Speaker 4 (47:08):
Yeah, but you're not. You're are you going to be
like I'm not gonna make.

Speaker 2 (47:12):
Your drinks that I can't say it out loud.

Speaker 4 (47:14):
Now, you don't do it at all. You're still getting paid,
it's still your job. Tipping is an addition to right.
I understand that what you're saying that you're not getting
paid a lot of money as a salary, but you
are making a salary, are you not, Well, you're.

Speaker 6 (47:29):
Getting paid hourly. Yeah, but yeah, why do you have
to I don't know.

Speaker 2 (47:35):
I don't know. Salary means benefits and a.

Speaker 4 (47:37):
Whole other thing to me, So you know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (47:40):
She's not making much money, but she is getting paid
for her.

Speaker 4 (47:43):
Time behind her She's being paid for her job. Yes, yes,
I'm not gonna do my job because you're not giving
me the extra tip. Then that's crazy to me.

Speaker 6 (47:53):
Yeah, but I understand her feeling for it. Like if
I if I'm a server, I, like I said, I
do the exact same thing.

Speaker 2 (48:00):
I wouldn't say it, but I would do it. I
wouldn't serve them.

Speaker 6 (48:03):
If I'm in a restaurant as a waitress and I
know these people have been in multiple times and haven't
tipped me before, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
They're the last people I understand that place I'm going
to check on.

Speaker 4 (48:13):
Yeah, but you still will do your job right.

Speaker 2 (48:15):
I'll haul me under by if I can't. If I
got if I got the time.

Speaker 1 (48:20):
Service, I'm meander what if like she was mad that
I was only tipping a dollar, I would only tip
a dollar on drink more than No, that's.

Speaker 6 (48:27):
I mean, according to this article, that's appropriate. One to
two dollars a drink is appropriate.

Speaker 1 (48:32):
But if I got if I got a club soda,
not tip it on that. If I go, hey, I'm
just gonna club soda and they just squirt it anything
and hand me, I'm not giving an extra dollar for
a club soda.

Speaker 2 (48:42):
Second time you go to the same bartend.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
I don't know if i'd that many club sodas, but
so thirsty a refill.

Speaker 4 (48:48):
I'm not tipping on a club soda, no matter how
many you get, no matter how for a club soda.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't. I think you do.
I'm not tipping on a club soda. I could go
over grab the thing into it. It's your job. But
if I could do the same thing with a beer, though,
at least you're opening the bottle of wine. Bottle of wine.
Beer costs something. It's club soda, it's it's carbonation.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
Yeah, but you're not paying. You're not shaking things up.

Speaker 6 (49:18):
Okay, how many tons do we need bright here? I
mean you're not paying for the like you're not tipping
for the club soda. You're tipping for the service of
somebody taking your order.

Speaker 2 (49:27):
But I don't tip of barista when I just get
a coffee. Well that's where we different. You turn around
and go like that for the CoFe You're not making
me a stash to drink. So sorry.

Speaker 4 (49:36):
Now, what if you went to that same barista and
they're like, I'm not going to give you a coffee now, because.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
I'd go you you didn't tip me, I would say,
I talk to your manager, and then I'd bring over
the master. Yeah, and then it'd be and then I'd
be like, Hey, what's up with this moron? Yeah, I
got a coffee and it's it's not it's not illegal
not to tip on a coffee.

Speaker 2 (49:57):
That's crazy. Huh. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (49:58):
I kind of feel like I would want to say
something to this bar owner or whatever and be like, really,
you're gonna lose a customer because I you know, this
person is not gonna tip, or because I didn't tip
this bartender and.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
Just take clear. I would if I got actual drinks,
I would tip.

Speaker 4 (50:14):
Yeah, I think we're all in agreement that you should tip.
But to say that I'm not going to serve you
because I didn't tip, that's a little That's where I
think it's it's wrong.

Speaker 6 (50:24):
Well, she said, he came back a week later, went
straight to again to order a drink and tipped.

Speaker 9 (50:31):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (50:34):
I don't know, I don't know. None of that makes sense,
all right, throwback? What a year it's been. This year
has been wild, people starting hot out of the gate
and then leveling off. Some people, you know, in the
middle of the year did really well some people have
just been bad all year long.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
Don't look at me, I said some people, I said
some people.

Speaker 4 (50:59):
I'm not naming name. Well, here's the deal. Tomorrow is
our year end Awards Spectacular, and tomorrow we will find
out what the final standings are, who is the winner
of Throwback Trivia, and kind of more importantly, who's the
loser of Throwback Trivia because they will face a punishment

(51:21):
for whoever wins throw Back Trivia of their choosing. So
we're gonna find out tomorrow during the year as Spectacular
of who that is. So this is the final one.
It may matter in the standings. So let's go ahead
and pick. It's a ram draw. We're going to pick
the players for Throwback Trivia, And so who plays this week?
Playing this week is you Zeth? Zeth is playing this

(51:43):
week and your opponent for the final game is Emily
Zeth versus Emily. This could matter. I don't know. I
don't know the final standings, So we'll see how this goes.

Speaker 3 (51:54):
She's lying about being sick.

Speaker 6 (51:56):
By the way, I am not Emily has ALLERGIESU this morning.

Speaker 3 (52:00):
You've got big finger quotes on the alley.

Speaker 2 (52:03):
What do you want? What everything's in bloom. Right now,
I can't breathe. My eyes are burning.

Speaker 5 (52:09):
It's because like a virus inside.

Speaker 4 (52:15):
All right, we're gonna begin with you, Zeth. I know
you love to go with the audio clip, and so
we're going to start things off with an audio that
was not sound nice. I mean, it's part of the game.
We're going to begin with a movie clip from the
two thousands. You gotta tell me what movie from the
two thousands? This clip is.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
From my sister Jebbie. Nice to meet you. How you doing?
How are you just try not to stare? She's married?
Do you have to say that? What shame?

Speaker 4 (52:50):
Your beautiful thank you has two kids? All right, Zeth?
What two thousands movie was that clip from?

Speaker 5 (53:00):
Like three times while I'm listening to that, I go, oh,
I know that, and then I'm like, no, no, no, that's
not it.

Speaker 2 (53:05):
That's not it.

Speaker 5 (53:05):
A lot of those people were in a lot of
movies at that period of time, so I was like, oh,
that's that's for your oversion and I was like no,
this that's this is forty. Then I was like, no,
this is clearly knocked up.

Speaker 4 (53:15):
So Eddie knocked up, Zeth says, knocked up and he
is correct. Oh you could you could make out Seth
Rogan's voice, and that it's very, very specific. All right,
over to you, Emily. Your question is from the nineties. Emily,
which nineties Disney movie featured songs from Phil Collins?

Speaker 2 (53:40):
Oh, oh, oh, I know this.

Speaker 8 (53:43):
I knew it.

Speaker 2 (53:45):
That'zan?

Speaker 4 (53:47):
Emily says, Tarzan, and she is correct that Tarzan.

Speaker 2 (53:52):
So that's a great song. You'll be in my heart. Yeah,
I love it.

Speaker 4 (53:58):
All right, Zeth's over to you. Your questions from the eighties.
It is a movie description. I'm gonna describe a movie
from the eighties. You gotta tell me what eighties movie
I am describing? A young boy wants a certain toy
for Christmas and is willing to do anything to get it,
Despite leaving hints everywhere and even asking Santa himself for it,

(54:19):
it doesn't seem like he's gonna get it, but on
Christmas he does end up receiving his gift, even though
the results were as feared. What eighties movie did I
just describe that?

Speaker 3 (54:30):
Damn baby gun Eddie, you shoot your eye out, kid.
What's the name of the movie though?

Speaker 2 (54:36):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (54:36):
Man, Christmas story, Christmas Story.

Speaker 4 (54:39):
That says a Christmas story, and he is correct.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
He didn't say a Christmas story, Empily. I mean, what
are we doing here? I mean you're gonna start doing that.
I mean, start doing that. That's part of the part
of the title.

Speaker 4 (54:53):
Okay, can you please her allergies.

Speaker 2 (54:55):
Make it part of the title. I'm just saying, that's fine,
that's fine.

Speaker 4 (55:02):
Going after the judges, now, that's okay. I didn't think
that that would mattered, but whatever. All right over to you, Emily.
Your questions from the two thousands. Emily, who had the
top grossing tour of two thousand and two? Was it Chare,
Billy Joel and Elton John, Paul McCartney, Arrowsmith or the Eagles?

Speaker 2 (55:26):
Oh? Wow, all those older bands do really well. I
want to say Elton John. And was it Elton John
and Billy Joel? Yes, Elton John and Billy Joel.

Speaker 4 (55:38):
You go with Billy Joel and Elton John. That is incorrect,
pick the wrong old people. It was Paul McCartney.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
Oh I know, hey, yes, Oh.

Speaker 1 (55:50):
Sorry, Oh wait, I just made a comment.

Speaker 4 (55:57):
All right, Zach. Your questions from the nineties, Zeth, what
newspaper does Ray write for? And everybody loves Raymond Man, that's.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
A wash.

Speaker 5 (56:13):
The Raymond Tribute.

Speaker 2 (56:16):
No, that's.

Speaker 4 (56:18):
Is that your answer? Yeah, that is incorrect.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
It is Newsdayday Day, real real Long Island paper. Grew
up reading it. Really wowesday. Too bad. You're not playing, dude.
I would one for you.

Speaker 4 (56:33):
All right, Emily, over to you your questions from the eighties. Emily,
what did Clark receive as his Christmas bonus in National
Lampoon's Christmas Vacation? Oh?

Speaker 2 (56:43):
This great question. The Jelly of the Month Club.

Speaker 4 (56:46):
Emily says, the Jelly of the Month Club. And you
are correct. Now you didn't say a one year membership
to it. But I'll let it slide. I'll let it slide.

Speaker 2 (57:01):
That's my point. That's my point.

Speaker 3 (57:04):
That's by the way, you're doing a great job.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
You know what.

Speaker 8 (57:07):
You're not going to get extra points.

Speaker 2 (57:10):
You're giving him an I kind of wanted to, but
I guess I won't.

Speaker 4 (57:16):
All right over to you, Zeth, your questions from the
two thousands. Zeth, who was not a guest star on
the Office? Was it seth Rogen, Amy Adams, Will Ferrell,
Ray Romano or Josh Grobin was not a guest star?

Speaker 3 (57:39):
Okay? Amy Adams perse girl, I remember that one.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
Give me the.

Speaker 4 (57:46):
Seth Rogan, Amy Adams, Will Ferrell, Ray Romano, Josh Groban.

Speaker 3 (57:51):
I'm seeing Will Ferrell.

Speaker 5 (57:52):
He was one of the stupid manager things before they
picked each yourself whether that was all stupid. So between
Grobin and Rogan Rogan, Seth Rogan, he goes with Seth Rogan.

Speaker 4 (58:05):
He is correct. Seth Rogan never appeared on the Office crazy.
He just sounds like he would have, of course, like
a warehouse worker. Josh Groban, by the way, he was
Andy's brother. Yeah, Like, what's the name of the group?

Speaker 2 (58:25):
Does anybody remember the name of Wow? We should have say? No, no, sorry, no,
it's here comes Trouble. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:36):
Was like they're like SPF group or like they're like,
uh yeah, here comes Trouble.

Speaker 2 (58:43):
Sorry, wild deep, great show.

Speaker 4 (58:47):
All right, Emily, over to you. We have an audio
clip for you. This is a song from the nineties.

Speaker 2 (58:52):
All right.

Speaker 4 (58:52):
You gotta tell us the name of this nineties artist
or the name of this nineties song. All right, Emily,
what is the name of that nineties are artist or song?

Speaker 2 (59:01):
Oh? Man, I know the song.

Speaker 8 (59:04):
It's a great jam, but I can't get there in
my head right now I know.

Speaker 2 (59:11):
It's full of st it is so full of snot.
It's not snot. Shoot oh man, dude, cake And when.

Speaker 4 (59:24):
I says cake, that is incorrect. The band is probably
a little too tough. It's Citizen King. But the song
is called better Days scene.

Speaker 2 (59:37):
I get the bottom. That's a great song.

Speaker 3 (59:41):
Damn it.

Speaker 4 (59:42):
There you go. Oh wow, Okay, now I know it.

Speaker 8 (59:46):
I know it.

Speaker 2 (59:47):
I know it all right.

Speaker 4 (59:49):
That means, Zeth, if you get this next question correct,
you've won the game. If not, it will continue. Your
question is from the eighties. Zeth, what was the first
Nintendo game toil saving progress using a battery backed up cartridge?

Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
W tf? Man, wow, battery backed up first Nintendo.

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
Game to say you could save your prog.

Speaker 3 (01:00:18):
Let's see.

Speaker 5 (01:00:18):
I believe the first one damn you could save on
was Legend of Zelda. Sorry the legend, Zeth says, Legend
of Zelda. If he is correct, he's one. If not,
the game will continue. He is correct.

Speaker 4 (01:00:38):
That Zeth has won the game officially because of that
Christmas story. So Scott used to be a big regifter.
She had a whole closet full of gifts that she
would regift and was kind of proud about it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:57):
I had a system, the whole thing. Man, your system.

Speaker 6 (01:01:00):
I'm sorry I had to develop a system after a
couple of fails, but that looks I got my system down.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
I felt like I was nailed.

Speaker 4 (01:01:06):
They completely backfired where you gave gifts to people that
gave you the gift right and then or had notes
in it that said stuff and they realized, oh, this
is a regift.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
Yeah I think that.

Speaker 6 (01:01:17):
Yeah, there was one time I gave somebody a sweater
that they had given me your friar.

Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
That was a fail.

Speaker 6 (01:01:22):
And yeah, there was this one time I regifted a
bar set and didn't realize because it was from Eddie
that Eddie had also put a Bevmo gift card inside
which had my name on it, which gave away the
fact when they opened what I.

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
Thought was to give it a bar set. We would
you give that.

Speaker 7 (01:01:40):
Nice?

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
Already had a shaker? How many cocktails? Shakers? Does what
need making two cocktails? Would?

Speaker 4 (01:01:46):
I wouldn't do that motion? Uh wait whatever? So yeah,
I'm glad that a backfired against you for doing that nice.
That's not nice to regift something.

Speaker 6 (01:01:54):
But then from that point on, what I'll do, because
I have a place in my house called the gifting
closet where I get gifts that I know is your
house that.

Speaker 2 (01:02:02):
You have a separate gifted closet.

Speaker 6 (01:02:04):
No, it's just a little section of the closet where
I put stuff and now I'll put a posted note
on there to remind me who I got it from,
so I don't regift it in the same circle you did.

Speaker 4 (01:02:16):
We gift a air fryer to Emily and it didn't
last very long and oh yeah, and then she gave
it away.

Speaker 2 (01:02:21):
Because ye, well she was okay with the regift.

Speaker 6 (01:02:24):
She knew it was a regift on the front side,
but then she decided to regift the regift, which was wild.

Speaker 2 (01:02:29):
I give you a favorite chili dog tip, yeah to.

Speaker 4 (01:02:32):
Air FRI's chili, which I think is weird.

Speaker 2 (01:02:33):
Is that a thing?

Speaker 4 (01:02:34):
No, it shouldn't be, but it is what it is. So,
you know, regifting is frowned upon. You know, people don't
really like it. But apparently times have changed where they're
kind of figuring out, well, how do we feel these
days about regifting in like cash gifts.

Speaker 6 (01:02:49):
Yeah, because they did a survey of gifts that like
either people have frowned upon before or just out on
whether it's cash, gifts, gift cards, regifting use items. They
ask people, how do you feel about those things? Turns
out today is National Regifting Day. Who knew that was
a thing?

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
I don't know, yah thing, it's the only time it
kind of makes sense.

Speaker 6 (01:03:12):
Yeah, and then when I also found interesting and I
didn't know this, They say, like, regifting has been a
term for a while, but they say it was Seinfeld
in the mid nineties that actually made regifting like a
popular thing. I guess Elaine got a label maker for
Tim Whatley and then he regifted it to Jerry and
Ela saw that.

Speaker 2 (01:03:35):
Eventually Elaine and Tim Botley got together. Yeah, wow, look
at that.

Speaker 6 (01:03:39):
So they're asking people how do we feel about these
type of gifts? Are they acceptable? When it comes to regifting,
people's attitudes have totally changed. I don't know if it's
the economy or just whatever, but now sixty one percent
of people say regifting an item is totally acceptable.

Speaker 7 (01:04:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:04:01):
When it comes to secondhand items, like maybe it's a
book you loved and you want to give to somebody else,
or somebody complimented. I don't know, a jacket and you
want to give to whatever it is only thirty percent
are okay with a used item, but they say it
has to be because like the person actually wanted it,

(01:04:22):
you know what I mean, not just something you pull
out of your hamper and put.

Speaker 2 (01:04:25):
In a box. Like that's not the thing, go wash
it first.

Speaker 6 (01:04:29):
So that they asked in twenty twenty five, how are
we feeling about gift cards and how are we feeling
about straight cash as a gift in twenty twenty five, Well,
it turns out that eighty seven percent say gift cards
are fine. That's totally acceptable, totally fine. But eighty eight
percent say cash is cash cash only are saying cash

(01:04:53):
is better than a gift card, and in no way
do we think it's a lazy or phone in gift.

Speaker 4 (01:05:00):
In twenty five, Emily would love that.

Speaker 1 (01:05:02):
Yeah, have cash, and I'd rather have cash than an
Amazon gift card. Oh really, what Amazon gift cards? I'm
limited to what's on Amazon. Everything on Amazon that you're
gonna pay cash or just well cash. I can go
anywhere I want. I like the I can get food

(01:05:22):
with it. I don't have to just get you want
you want the freedom, I want the freedom Amazon. I'm
limited to just Amazon.

Speaker 2 (01:05:28):
I actually prefer Amazone over cash. I think really because
it makes it seem more like a gift, like because
I can buy myself some good.

Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
I feel like Amazon gift card is by far and
away the biggest mailing gift on Earth.

Speaker 2 (01:05:40):
Real is it's so easy just to.

Speaker 1 (01:05:42):
Go to your Amazon app and get an Amazon gift
card and mail somebody. And I'm not saying I wouldn't
do it. I do it, but I'm just at least cash.
I have to go to the ATM and get cash.

Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
So if you have given you oh definitely, I'm not saying.

Speaker 6 (01:05:56):
That if you had to pick between cash or a
Visa gift card, where.

Speaker 2 (01:06:00):
You at Visa because it takes more effort. Oh, it's
about the effort. It's about the effort.

Speaker 1 (01:06:06):
Gift cards cool. Yeah, I'd rather have a Visa gift
card than an Amazon gift card. But I may use
the Visa gift card on Amazon.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
I don't know what.

Speaker 4 (01:06:15):
I don't know what's going on. It does look like
who Villain here looking alive. It's pretty cool, pretty kick ass.
My house is the exact same way. It's a little
little much for some. For some, some walk in and go.
This is excellent you know. Uh, well, I guess there's
one woman out there who is really kind of debating

(01:06:37):
what to do here because she's sort of being forced
to decorate for the holidays, even though she doesn't really
want to.

Speaker 6 (01:06:45):
Yeah, so I guess her and her husband, they don't
have kids yet, just bought their first house and they
moved in right at the beginning of the month, So
like two weeks ago is when they finally got the
keys and moved in for the first time. Now, the
house needs a few things here and there that like
needed to be fixed. Sounds like they got a bit

(01:07:06):
of a deal because it had a few things that
need to be.

Speaker 2 (01:07:12):
God, you guys. Yeah, So since they moved in two.

Speaker 6 (01:07:17):
Weeks ago, they've between working and trying to get the
house situated, they've been really busy and they have noticed.
It's not lost on them that they discovered that they
have moved into a neighborhood where pretty much every single
house in the neighborhood does some sort of decoration for Christmas,

(01:07:38):
whether it's just so lucky little basic lights all the
way to the big inflatables. There's not really one dark
house in the neighborhood. And so they've been so busy.
They haven't done anything to the outside of the house
as far as Christmas.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
We're all busy, honey.

Speaker 6 (01:07:55):
Well, I guess they just got a letter and it
was from quote the neighborhood, letting them know that they
may not realize that they've moved into a very festive
neighborhood where they appreciate everybody doing at least minimal decorations.

Speaker 4 (01:08:14):
This is like one of those like candy can lanes,
right or anything.

Speaker 2 (01:08:17):
It kind of sounds like that where you got to do.

Speaker 1 (01:08:19):
I think you get the heads up if you move
into that kind of I don't think it's that extreme.
Probably just a festive neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (01:08:25):
Yeah, yeah, it sounds like it because if it's if
it's like a candy cane lane, you know, then you know, yeah,
my uncle live on one of those.

Speaker 4 (01:08:32):
Really. Yeah, it's it's crazy. It's because there was like
up door, yeah, where one of like it's literally I wish, uh.
They they have tour groups come in. They have people
like vendors who sell like hot chocolate and things like that,
like the full blown like hay rides and things like.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
That's awful.

Speaker 4 (01:08:52):
Well, my uncle's getting up there and he's got to
decorate his house like insane every year. I mean, i'd
have to drive all the way to Fresh No, it
would be kind of tough. I would love that, but
but yeah, I mean those kind of places are nuts. An.

Speaker 1 (01:09:07):
Yeah, I saw like my buddy on Instagram I grew
up with, and they were on a place like that
on Long Island, and I'm just like, I can't imagine
being like neighbors. It's like a Tuesday and there's like
one hundred and fifty people walking around standing in your
driving Mr go.

Speaker 2 (01:09:21):
To something, you come home from a late dinner, you
can't drive down. No, No, my dogs will go crazy. Okay,
it'd be rough for you. Not for you, definitely not.
But there's places that don't have dammit.

Speaker 6 (01:09:37):
So she gets this letter from the neighborhood letting them
know that their house is quote sticking out like a
sore thumb, and that the neighborhood hopes that their new
neighbor will be as a team player and join the
festive team.

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
The month of December.

Speaker 4 (01:09:56):
All I have to do is look over to my
right and say, well, Thorida isn't going to decorate for
the holidays. If you you guys just moved into this house,
you know, this year. What would you do if you
got this letter and you didn't know?

Speaker 2 (01:10:10):
So we are in a neighborhood that everyone has decorations.

Speaker 4 (01:10:13):
Really, are you a sore thumb right now?

Speaker 2 (01:10:15):
Probably? Okay, but I don't care. But what if you
got this?

Speaker 1 (01:10:19):
What if you got this I got this letter, I
would go, Oh my god, such an I would I
would not I wouldn't not put up anything. What I
would do is I'd put up one thing. That's when
you put up like a wreath on my front door
or like or you know what I would do, I'd

(01:10:39):
put up a noora.

Speaker 2 (01:10:42):
Really screw them, okay.

Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Because then they'd be like because then if they say anything,
I'm gonna call my anti Semitic Jewish.

Speaker 2 (01:10:49):
I'm Jewish? What's in their face? And I am Jewish?

Speaker 1 (01:11:02):
Oh yeah, they're gonna they're gonna be blasting Kanye West
music on their front I don't know that they would.

Speaker 6 (01:11:08):
Yeah, So she's going back and forth. Do I just
go because they don't even have outdoor Dechriatians. This is
the first house that they've owned. They've I guess been
in apartments ever since before so she's wondering, do I
just go buy one or two things to shut them up?

Speaker 8 (01:11:21):
Or buy a couple of strands of lights for ten
bucks at Walmart, put them on a bush and call
it a day.

Speaker 2 (01:11:26):
I guess.

Speaker 4 (01:11:26):
I mean, I don't even goes, I I they just
moved in. Yeah, next year, I'm gonna give you a pass.

Speaker 2 (01:11:33):
I mean, I'm aggressive that they said something. I mean,
they've been there two weeks. Your business.

Speaker 4 (01:11:39):
That's a little much to me. But yeah, you could
do something like that.

Speaker 2 (01:11:43):
Not a big deal.

Speaker 4 (01:11:43):
Today's a big day. Today is not only Emily's dad's birthday, Wow,
but it is also I mean, they're basically the twins.
Brad Pitts birth day as well, in the same one,
in the same the same age. They aren't, well, we
don't know, you know how old Brad Pitt is.

Speaker 2 (01:12:03):
I don't. My dad's seventy eight, so pretty close. I
don't know, p pretty close.

Speaker 4 (01:12:09):
It might shock you when you find out how old
Brad Pitt is. It's stunning.

Speaker 2 (01:12:13):
Brad Pitt is turning sixty two years old today.

Speaker 4 (01:12:18):
The guy doesn't look in a day over twenty two.

Speaker 1 (01:12:21):
And what's crazy about Brad Pitt is he doesn't look
like he's over. I'm sure he's had work done, obviously,
but he doesn't look like he's had worked.

Speaker 4 (01:12:29):
Because he looks a little weathered, like in the New
F One movie if you go see it, like he
has lines and.

Speaker 1 (01:12:35):
It's not like he's you know, but he's not like Cruise,
where Tom Tom sixty four and Tom Cruise like it
looks like a sixty four year old has had too
much work done.

Speaker 2 (01:12:43):
Yeah, like Brad and anybody. Yeah, Brad Pitt looks great. Still,
there's crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:12:48):
Only one thing that Thorn and I agreed on on
his best Looking Guys in Hollywood list that I had
to tap in for. I did mine, he did his.
We both agree. As long as there's a list, Brad
deserves a spot on. I mean, the guy, the guy
is just unbelievable, amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:13:05):
Id Eddie texted me after you saw F One that
end quote. The text was that guy's an f in
the movie star.

Speaker 2 (01:13:12):
And I stand by that.

Speaker 6 (01:13:13):
Damn.

Speaker 4 (01:13:14):
You watch him on screen and you go, man, he's
a he's a matinee idol oh going on and all,
what a dream thought.

Speaker 2 (01:13:26):
He is the epitome of a movie star.

Speaker 4 (01:13:28):
Yeah, I don't really care what you guys think, Like,
what's the same?

Speaker 2 (01:13:30):
What are you Brad Pitt? That that's the same, That
is the same, that's the same. The saying is, what
are you James Franco? What James Franco? People, I hope
you're not. Hey that guy. He's a great looking guy too.
Didn't make the list. So didn't make the list, So
Brad did.

Speaker 4 (01:13:51):
Brad's just stud sixty two, I mean, unbelievably so apparently,
you know, Brad's been in Hollywood for what thirty years now,
you know, really long time, and apparently everybody kind of
considers Brad for the for a movie role.

Speaker 2 (01:14:06):
You go, you know who'd be great in this? Brad Pitt?

Speaker 4 (01:14:08):
Yeah, obviously. But but Brad apparently has been up for
a lot of big time roles that he said no
thanks to.

Speaker 6 (01:14:15):
Oh yeah, it's interesting because a couple of them have
reasons like conflicting with the other projects, and some of
them were just a hard pass that, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:14:25):
Whether it's wild to think about him in certain rules,
like it would have been a totally different movie exactly
Brad Pitt would.

Speaker 2 (01:14:31):
Have been oh yeah, oh totally different.

Speaker 4 (01:14:33):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (01:14:33):
So they gave us ten of them coming in number
ten because they ranked them by which ones you know,
they thought were like.

Speaker 2 (01:14:38):
Big number ten Neo in the matrix Keanu. Everyone was
asked about that.

Speaker 4 (01:14:44):
I kind of feel Will Smith. Oh really, yeah, I
can't imagine. Brad Pitt, No, I actually that would have
been weird. But it would have been great. Yeah, great,
it would have been kind of a different movie. It
would have been a little sillier.

Speaker 8 (01:14:56):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:14:57):
Brad Pitt has never given a reason for that one,
but he says he's thankful he passed on. The believes
it belonged to Keanu Reeves and that was the right
choice in the long run. Next, another one with no explanation,
but we kind of know the explanation. According to reports,
he passed on broke Back Mountains.

Speaker 4 (01:15:19):
Oh, I guess the man.

Speaker 2 (01:15:21):
That would have been a different movie. I guess the dream.
I would have seen it, now you're getting I would
have seen it broke Back. No, what year was that,
Let's see two, four or five?

Speaker 1 (01:15:39):
I wasn't ready yet, Okay, five, I was still in
high school. Now, different story. I've said this before. The
movie Ships Creak, the TV show Ships Creak. Yeah, completely
opened my eyes and made me realize how ignorant I
was for a very long time.

Speaker 2 (01:15:53):
Wow Horse growing a couple of.

Speaker 4 (01:15:57):
Years ago, weird Scar said to say to say, yeah,
broke Back Town, gotcha there.

Speaker 2 (01:16:06):
I wouldn't say that.

Speaker 6 (01:16:08):
I guess the original dream pairing was Brad Pitt and Leonardo.

Speaker 2 (01:16:14):
DiCaprio, Wow and Jack.

Speaker 6 (01:16:19):
Yeah, But the director did say they talked to a
lot of people and they kept getting no.

Speaker 2 (01:16:27):
Risky.

Speaker 6 (01:16:28):
Yeah, I guess he passed on the role as Big
Daddy in the movie Kick Ass.

Speaker 2 (01:16:35):
It ended up going to Nick Cage. I guess he
was also.

Speaker 6 (01:16:41):
So he was offered that movie at the same time
he was offered Inglorious Bastards, and he chose to work
with Quentin Tarantino instead, probably a good choice. He was
offered the role of Patrick Bateman in Americas Psycho.

Speaker 1 (01:16:58):
That's an one though that I feel like everyone was offered. Really,
I always hear about other guys.

Speaker 6 (01:17:03):
Yeah, yeah, I guess there was an original director attached
to the project and Brad Pitton that guy were like tight.
But then I guess that guy the more he kind
of got the vibe of the movie, he was like,
this is way too violent for what I do.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Didn't he didn't know what the movie was. I guess
he knew, but not like the level of what they
were gonna show.

Speaker 6 (01:17:24):
Yeah, I guess it's the same guy who directed The Fly,
so they kind of thought because he was in horror
like that would be as vibe, but it wasn't. So
when the director left, Brad was attached to the director,
not the movie, so he left as well. He was
supposed to or offered the role of Russell Hammond in
Almost Famous Oh Yeah, the Golden God roof.

Speaker 4 (01:17:46):
Yeah, yeah, I can see that.

Speaker 6 (01:17:49):
So I guess when he was offered it, the script
wasn't one hundred percent done and he was still in
the middle of working on fight Club, and so because
the script wasn't finished, he said, no, I'm going to
focus on fight Club. You can move along and offer
that to somebody else. He was offered the role of
Colin Sullivan in The Departed Matt Damon's role.

Speaker 1 (01:18:11):
Oh wow, Yeah, I don't think Matt Thane was so perfect,
such a weasel in that movie.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
Yeah, I don't think.

Speaker 4 (01:18:19):
Yeah, I don't think that works.

Speaker 2 (01:18:20):
Brad could have been Leo's role. Maybe, I think he's
too pretty for Leo's role. Rugged in that movie. Yeah,
rugget one of my favorites.

Speaker 6 (01:18:29):
Well, I guess he was part of the production company
that got the movie made planned, yeah, and so initially
he was gonna be that role, but the more they
developed the script, they wanted more of a younger rookie
cop to be in that role, and he thought he
was a little too old for that role. So that's
when it went to Matt Damon. He was supposed to

(01:18:50):
be in Ford Versus Ferrari. I guess Tom Cruise and
Brad Pitt were the first two considered, but it didn't
work out.

Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Went to Matt Damon because of F one. They're really
trying to push a Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt like
sequel with.

Speaker 4 (01:19:08):
Oh Him as Days of Thunder Guy, I love that Clyde. Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:19:16):
The top three roles Brad Pitt passed on. Number three
goes to Jason Bourne in the Bourne iad why has
he ever been other than I know, fight club, but
he has ever been like a kick ass.

Speaker 4 (01:19:29):
You wouldn't think that about Matt Damon before Jason Bourn.

Speaker 6 (01:19:34):
Totally totally, So I guess he was offered the part,
but he had just committed to star alongside Robert Redford
in the movie Spy Game.

Speaker 2 (01:19:46):
Yeah some c I A. I don't even know what
movie that. Yeah, that's why he didn't end up as
Jason Bourne.

Speaker 6 (01:19:54):
It turns out he was offered a bit role, well
not a bit roll, but I mean it was a
role in the Shawshank Redemption Tommy Tommy, the Inmate Tommy.

Speaker 2 (01:20:05):
Yeah, you know, Andy. This would have been before he
was big, big stars, so that's the thing. So he
was offered the role and was considering it.

Speaker 6 (01:20:13):
But this was before Thelma and Louise was released, and
that was his first like role that got him noticed.
So once Thelma and Louise was released and it turned
into a massive hit, his agent's like, you're too big
for this part.

Speaker 2 (01:20:28):
We're gonna turn this one o. Wow. Yeah. And the
final role that.

Speaker 6 (01:20:32):
Brad Pitt turned down on his sixty second birthday today,
Jack from Apollo thirteen, Kevin Bacon's role.

Speaker 2 (01:20:41):
Interesting. Yeah, could have seen Hanks, but it would have
been the star that's the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:20:45):
I mean, our astronauts that good looking though.

Speaker 2 (01:20:48):
That's crazy, ye, he makes sense.

Speaker 6 (01:20:54):
Yeah, So he was offered the role as Jack, but
at the same time was offered the role in seven.

Speaker 4 (01:21:00):
Ah way with seven, because he obviously was the star
of seven, he wouldn't have been the star of Apollo thirteen.
Both are great movies and both are like, you know,
Academy Award winning movies. But that makes way more and
he was really good seven.

Speaker 2 (01:21:17):
What's my wife, buddy? That's crazy. I guess it's awesome.

Speaker 4 (01:21:26):
Well, the Astecs kicked off their conference play with kind
of an easy win over air Force eighty one to
fifty eight last night at home. Bj Davis scored nineteen
points off the bench to help lead the way. The
Aztecs outscored air Force by twenty points in the second
half and ended up being a little bit of a laugher.
Now the real test begins. They're going to face off

(01:21:49):
against the number one team in the nation, as they're
going to play Arizona on Saturday. If they can somehow
win that game, that changes everything. They had a rough
go of it in that tournament that they played in Vegas,
didn't go so great. But if they beat Arizona, look out.
There's another college football coach that has lost their job

(01:22:12):
in kind of a scandalous way. Ohio University coach Brian
Smith was fired yesterday for what the university is saying
was quote engaging in serious professional misconduct and participating in
activities that reflect unfavorably on the university. What the hell
does that mean? Well, they didn't give any specifics on

(01:22:34):
what he was doing, but it had to be pretty bad.
You know. The team actually had a good season this year.
They're going to face UNLV in the Frisco Bowl next week,
so they made it to a bowl. But this guy
ain't gonna be there. No, he didn't make it for
the ball. No, are the Chicago Bears moving now? Listen,
Chicago's one of the NFL's legendary franchises, like the Packers,

(01:22:57):
like your Giants. I mean, they've been around forever. They're
not leaving Chicago right. Well, if you're having issues building
a stadium, what do you do.

Speaker 2 (01:23:07):
We've seen it. We've seen it.

Speaker 4 (01:23:10):
So they are looking outside of the Chicago area for
building a new stadium now because they're just running into roadeblocks.
One of these spots is in Indiana, Indiana. Now, Chicago
is pretty close to Indiana. It's maybe an hour away,
I think.

Speaker 7 (01:23:27):
So.

Speaker 4 (01:23:28):
The team apparently owns three hundred and twenty six acres
out there and are thinking of maybe going Dome Stadium,
and they would still be the Chicago Bears. But they're
playing in Indiana now. The Giants play in New Jersey.
The Jets, Oh yeah, are they no longer the New York?

Speaker 2 (01:23:46):
Are they not the New York? Are they not the
New York?

Speaker 9 (01:23:49):
They are?

Speaker 6 (01:23:49):
Like, I felt weird about it when San Francisco did
it and went to Santa Clara. But that's like so
close and still kind of in the Bay Area. But
if you're in a completely different state, that feels weird.

Speaker 2 (01:24:00):
Uh, my wife, Santa Clara's pretty far from San Francisco.

Speaker 4 (01:24:03):
Right, It's probably forty five minutes away.

Speaker 2 (01:24:05):
If that's the same distance, what's the difference?

Speaker 6 (01:24:07):
I just feel like a different state, like the state
line feels weird to me.

Speaker 4 (01:24:10):
I don't know why, but I guess if it's Indiana Bears,
you know, people will freak out to.

Speaker 1 (01:24:17):
That point though, Yeah, I guess people don't root for
the Chargers anymore because we moved to La, the same state.

Speaker 2 (01:24:22):
What's the difference. That's a good point to Las. We
hate l Yeah, that's why does Chicago hate Indiana? I
don't think.

Speaker 1 (01:24:29):
I don't think there is another team in Indianapolis though
that's good points. But there is a team in New York,
but in Buffalo, damn.

Speaker 2 (01:24:35):
So it's just like that's weird. But honestly, in New
yorkers don't consider it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:39):
Like rob from a New York Long Island, New York City,
we don't consider the Buffalo New York team.

Speaker 2 (01:24:44):
Upstate New York, they don't. It's weird, like Buffalo Bills.
We don't consider that in New York.

Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
It's it's odd. It's a completely different area exactly. But yeah,
I get what you're saying. But because of the Giants
playing Jersey, I don't hate it. You have to get
a stadium then I guess we'll see what happens with that.

Speaker 2 (01:25:00):
There you go.

Speaker 4 (01:25:00):
That is sports dirt for today. So Thor's birthday is
on New Year's Eve.

Speaker 2 (01:25:08):
Yeah, that can't be Oh that happened. That's not No
one can be born on you. That's pretty rough. I
think there's there's probably millions of people that are born
on New Year's out.

Speaker 4 (01:25:17):
That's it's uh, it's an unfortunate day to have a
birthday because nobody really wants to celebrate your day.

Speaker 1 (01:25:24):
I'm so glad my son was born November third, technical
November fourth, there's no technicality to its twenty seconds before
I've four, so it's still the third kind. The technicality
might be the third.

Speaker 2 (01:25:37):
Kind of God.

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
So he gets to celebrate like before the holidays. And
like in school, when you're born on a holiday, it sucks.

Speaker 2 (01:25:46):
No one cares.

Speaker 1 (01:25:47):
You don't get cupcakes at school, no cupcakes over your
birthday party early yep, you.

Speaker 4 (01:25:53):
What's even around on it?

Speaker 2 (01:25:54):
Like like the New Year's uncles said one Christmas and
birthday gift. That's mess. That sucks.

Speaker 1 (01:26:04):
Then you have your wife, your wife named Haley complaints
specific that it's just she wishes it was a different
day because it's so hard buying two gifts. I might
and I go, I buy two gifts for you on
June December.

Speaker 2 (01:26:19):
Close together.

Speaker 4 (01:26:20):
Yeah, it sucks. And then like when you are celebrating
on New Year's Eve, you're standing up till midnight, but
they're not stand up to midnight for your birthday. They're
standing up for midnight to celebrate New Year's Eve and
New Year's Day. So it's a weird deal. Without a doubt.

Speaker 2 (01:26:38):
I mentioned it sucks.

Speaker 4 (01:26:39):
Yeah, yes, do you guys have any plans yet for
New Year's Eve?

Speaker 7 (01:26:45):
I do not.

Speaker 2 (01:26:46):
I don't know what I'm gonna do. Zero plans.

Speaker 1 (01:26:49):
Eddie, you and Sky went like a Diddy white party
one year we did, Yes, Scott. Scott look like a
cowgirl hooker.

Speaker 2 (01:26:59):
I didn't like a cow girl hooker.

Speaker 4 (01:27:01):
The big white white cowboy boots, fluffy coat and and
some hot hooker.

Speaker 2 (01:27:08):
Like I was crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:27:09):
I tried to spray with some baby well else she
ducked her husband Bo Diddy there, yeah, oh yeah, he was.
We can't talk about that. So nobody has plans.

Speaker 2 (01:27:23):
For New Year's No, and I kind of hope it
stays that way.

Speaker 4 (01:27:25):
Really, you don't want to do anything.

Speaker 1 (01:27:27):
Emily will definitely go to a party that will find
out about. One of her neighbors will throw a big party.
She'll go there, no question. It's it's insane that she
says that she's not going to do anything. We know
she's going to go to a party.

Speaker 7 (01:27:38):
I know.

Speaker 2 (01:27:39):
Just depends she gets my friend Aubrey's party. He said,
if she gets over the cold, the sick, not a cold.
My eyes I just woke up. My eyes are like swollen.
We're so itchy because you're sick. What do you want
me to do? Leave right now? Yeah? Okay, okay, she's

(01:27:59):
gonna be wants that. He's been here all morning going
to the studio. Just do your back, just do your
behind the scenes work.

Speaker 4 (01:28:06):
I mean, yeah, I don't. I don't know what the
plan is for New Year's, but chances are I'm doing nothing.
I don't do anything for New Year's. That that random
party was.

Speaker 6 (01:28:18):
Yeah, that was like a one off. Now, when when
you're home? Do you do anything at home?

Speaker 9 (01:28:23):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:28:23):
No, I still I can't tell you the last time
I've seen midnight.

Speaker 2 (01:28:29):
I don't know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:28:30):
Really, it's gonna come to be about ten o'clock and
I'm going to be dead.

Speaker 2 (01:28:34):
When you watch the ball drop, though, do the East coast? No, no,
you won't.

Speaker 4 (01:28:40):
That's not that's not that doesn't count. I know Sky
always says every year accounts, how does that count? It's
not actually midnight.

Speaker 2 (01:28:46):
I'm an American. Other Americans are celebrating New Year's Eve.
Do not know how time zones work.

Speaker 4 (01:28:52):
I do know how.

Speaker 2 (01:28:53):
It's not midnight work.

Speaker 1 (01:28:54):
It's not mean like it's flexible in your twelve forty
five right now, Yeah, time is not flexible.

Speaker 6 (01:29:00):
I could I could talk to I could talk to
my cousin in New York and okay, really nerd references.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
That was deeper.

Speaker 6 (01:29:09):
I'm just saying I feel I only had a brain.
I get how time zones work. Okay, I'm just saying
that I feel East Coast.

Speaker 4 (01:29:19):
I know you feel that way because you again aren't
staying up till midnight.

Speaker 2 (01:29:23):
No, so I'm a bit of a moron.

Speaker 6 (01:29:26):
Oh okay, it doesn't make me a moron because I
celebrate East Coast New Year.

Speaker 4 (01:29:30):
So Emily, you stayed up last Did you stay up
last year to midnight?

Speaker 2 (01:29:35):
I don't remember. No, I definitely don't remember that you
have to yeah, twenty five, it came to five. Yeah,
when you have all that cold med in necessary alcohol.

Speaker 4 (01:29:53):
No.

Speaker 8 (01:29:53):
If I'm home and I'm not doing anything, I would
do the East Coast thing too excited.

Speaker 2 (01:29:57):
Yeah, but you know that doesn't count. I'm saying, I
know it doesn't. I'm saying mid night, would you stay
up to midnight? Not if I wasn't going somewhere. Really,
you're always going.

Speaker 4 (01:30:04):
Somewhere, so well, I maybe you don't remember I did
anything last year.

Speaker 2 (01:30:08):
I don't remember if I did goodness at all? Do
you stay up till midnight? Yeah? I do every year?

Speaker 3 (01:30:13):
And you do?

Speaker 2 (01:30:14):
Do I do every year when he's cast No, because
I'm not. I'm not a moron. Okay, it doesn't make
me more on. You said it yourself, dude. You said
that time is flexible. I'm a bit of a more on. Okay,
your words. That's a clip guy from this conversation.

Speaker 1 (01:30:30):
I stay up every year. I've done it as far
as I don't know. I just like I stay up
on the weekends late anyway, do you I do Friday
late champagne bottles? Yeah, I pop champagne drink.

Speaker 2 (01:30:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:30:44):
Now with the baby this year? What the baby this year?
Does that change things?

Speaker 2 (01:30:49):
Well, we'll put him down.

Speaker 1 (01:30:51):
Actually, it makes me want to stay up later now
because what I'll do is I know he's going to
get up around Like if we put him down at
like ten, he'll get up at like one. So I'd
rather just stay up until one and then get the
and then put them down again like an hour later,
and then get at four hours of sleep. I'd rather
wake up at five am than one am.

Speaker 2 (01:31:10):
Does that make sense? Because you would rather get a
couple hours in before you have to wake up at one. No,
I'd rather because I'm so tired of him. Yeah, I'm not.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
By the time we hit that point in vacation, I'm
staying up too late, and I'm telling myself I need
to start going to bed earlier, get ready for work again.
The longer on vacation, for the longer, I start staying up,
and eventually I start going to bed at like one thirty.

Speaker 2 (01:31:31):
Oh geez, I'm a night guy. I am not a
morning guy. We know. Oh yeah, I hope you're on
a morning radio show.

Speaker 4 (01:31:39):
Well, I asked people, are you planning on staying up
until midnight.

Speaker 2 (01:31:44):
For New Year's Eve? And it turns OUTA wis New
Year's I don't. Do you celebrate Chinese New Year's too?
I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:31:53):
I talked about America, Australia, America's at like two am.

Speaker 2 (01:31:57):
Are you like Happy New Year? I don't. He's an American.

cares about its.

Speaker 9 (01:32:06):

Speaker 6 (01:32:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:32:07):
What about over? Okay, Patriot? Why not celebrates Central time
Zone New Year? Well?

Speaker 6 (01:32:13):
If I was up, but I've I've already I saw
East Coast and I'm out I can't stay up another
hour for Central time zone.

Speaker 2 (01:32:19):
You're wild, dude. So how many mountain.

Speaker 6 (01:32:27):
So they specifically ask people how many of you will
be asleep at midnight? And he's raising his hands. I'm
in there too, big time. Well, forty four percent of
us say guaranteed. Almost half stay guaranteed. There is no
way I'm a party or not.

Speaker 2 (01:32:50):
You're not like a party. You're not going to a party.

Speaker 4 (01:32:52):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
I haven't been invited. I haven't heard of any words
of any party. They say the fact that this year

my neighborhood, go, I'm not taking ubers or going to somebody.
You're not travel are making them. My friend has a party,
I'm not going, Sure, Sr Aubrey. Does anyone believe that
I'm not? I don't. I don't like to travel in
New Years It's too expensive. Two ubers? All right, thank you,

(01:33:15):
you're not going.

Speaker 6 (01:33:16):
Well, they say New Year's Eve is on a Wednesday
this year, and so for some people they say, yeah,
that's yuck. And they say that that number of who
will be asleep by midnight is higher in the West
Coast than on the East and people on the West
coast say it's because I can watch the ball drop

(01:33:37):
in New York and feel like I've already done it.

Well.
