Speaker 1 (00:01):
You know, I'm happy about one hundred and ten year
old lobster that gets released into the sea. This thing
was living in a restaurant. So my first thing is
I'm like, well, wait a minute. Has the restaurant been
there for one hundred and ten years? So I'm I'm
like confused about that. To Nassau County, New York, they
pardoned the lobsters lived at Peter's Clambar in Island Park

(00:25):
for years, and now Lorenzo. I guess with Lorenzo the
lobster one hundred and ten years old, it's too late
now can he He.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Can't survive exactly, it's one hundred and ten year old lobster.
You know that. Poor things? Now now you're letting me lose.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
He can't survive now on his own. I don't think so.
I was like, man, is that more mean? Or you
just keep him there and don't let anybody eat him.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Just fiw me in the shark tag and get it
over with.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Do you want one hundred and ten year old lobster?
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
It's probably not sweeten little tough. You think man tastes
like ben.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Gay, They said after it was pardoned. They carried the
way to the lobster by a Hempstead Bay Constable boat
with flashing lights and sirens, and put him back into
the sea. I'm sure he's already gone. He's probably dead already.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
Probably they should have put one of those tracking things
on it, just just for the morbid curiosity of exactly
how long the lobster lasts exactly?

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Have you often wondered do you like toilet paper the
waterfall style or the underneath? So it's the over or
the under.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
If you're an American, it's over.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
I thought so too. Yeah, to the point where here
in our one hole is there like out where we go,
we have the one holer batters. If I go in
there and it's under, which both of them were today,
I switch them. I actually switch them out to.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
You're serious about it, I'm very serious.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
And they said, a scientist settles this once and for all.
I'm like, wait a minute, because there are some people
who flat out you go to there. I will go
as far as if I'm at somebody's house and it's under,
I will flip it around.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
I come through your house, I will not adjust the
toilet paper. That is not what you do when you
come to a great country, lack America. You leave it
the way to ease. And yeah, I've never gone in
and adjusted somebody else's, but yeah, over is the way
it's supposed to go.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
I'm actually changing.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
If you disagree with that, you're wrong.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
The waterfall style. But according to sciences, listen to this crap.
I don't. I don't even believe this. I feel like
these scientists are terrorists too, because they're saying the under
position is safer and get this more effective, safer because
the over method requires a secondhand to touch the risk
of contaminating.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
And yes, all of the toilet paper accidents in this
country every year, we've got to maintain the safety aspect.
It wasn't cushioned, it was single ply. I don't know
what I was thinking.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Like you like toilet paper accident?

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Yeah I know, man, Yeah, that's a headline you don't
see very often.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Tonight, leading the six o'clock news, there was a toilet
horrible toilet paper accident that occurred at the iHeart Studios.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Man was apparently trying to use a double roll when
only single roll space was available.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
On a side note that is, look, the Heart's in
the right place. With Charman in any of these places.
But it can get to poofy to where you need
then they have to invent the extender. So big Extender's
making a bunch of money on that situation.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
There's too much toilet paper on the roll now, Yeah,
it's like it's too big.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
What like, just just make it normal size and I
don't know, add two more rolls to your package. So
now it goes from ten to twelve or twelve to fourteen.
You get what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Yeah, you remember when we were kids and there used
to be printed toilet paper, Yes, had flowers on it,
or you could get it in pink or light blue
and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
What a waste of money.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
I'm like, why did we even think that was necessary
considering the use of this product? Why did we need
it to be pretty? I'm sorry, man, it just doesn't
make sense.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
The life on that where you're going, Man, that's pretty?
It's short lived, you know, I mean pretty soon it was.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
Yeah, and if you had a four pack of it
right now in a cabinet somewhere, you could probably get
a fortune for it on e today.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
I didn't even think about that. Holy cow, you might
be right so yeah, they argue the over position, where
the next square the toilet papers facing the user. Others
argue the under, And this is I got to be honest.
I'm sure there are plenty of people who like, I
guess the under. I just I've never really had a

(04:53):
conversation with him, and I feel like, this really is
It's not debatable. Kind of like what you just said.
You're like, hey, you can disagree with me, but look
over is how it should be. Period of story.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
You're wrong, Just to accept it. Walk away quietly. We
won't talk about you.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
Uh, Brett, you there.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
Oh, it's interesting that you guys brought the subject up.
So we're referring to the toilet paper roll. Yes, I'm
a contractor. I'm in a lot of people's houses, and
I've actually been doing a non scientific, informal poll on this,
and let me tell you, the results are shocking but
maybe a little bit predictable. The under versus the over

(05:35):
over Conservatives under liberals, I kid you not.

Speaker 4 (05:40):
I kid you not.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
For some reason that makes perfect sense to me.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
Wow, it's funny because when you two both said you
preferred it over, I was like, okay, okay, this is
yet more ammunition for my poll, the legitimacy of my poll.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
So as a contractor, how do you know that said
person is either conservative or or Democrat? I mean, how
do you know that or is it obvious for you
or you have to guess.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
I would say probably eight percent of the time it's
very obvious. But then we normally talk during the process,
get to be friends, and uh, you know, we sometimes
they'll actually usually people will discuss politics, which doesn't bother
me one bit. I'm a conservative, but I'm happy to
talk with anybody and enjoy working for everybody. So but
it's just interesting. And then my sister, who is very liberal,

(06:31):
always has hers upside down, coming from the bottom, and
I always switch it just like you mark, every time
I go over there, just to get her, just to
get her a good one. So it's becoming like a
running family.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Gener you use the thing when it goes on and
you pull down on it to rip off a couple
of sheets or whatever. It just keeps coming a little bit.
That's that is very liberal. There's there is no end,
it just keeps coming. It's always going to be there.
I've wasted as much as you want. That's a very
liberal mentality.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Baning, go bang good.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
It's a great show.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Really enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
Thanks Bratt. We appreciate that. I thought he was gonna go.
And they have a super ru in the garage.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Typically, Oh, if it's a Super U, it's a democrat.
If it's a super Woo with bumper stickers, it's a leftist.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Yes. Uh. My favorite one is not all who wonder
are lost. It's like, well, the very word wonder would
then demonstrate that one is lost. You're wondering, but I
guess maybe not. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Coexist and get out of my way.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
That's my favorite. Mike, you there, Yes, I am. What
do you have brother?

Speaker 5 (07:41):
Well, I prefer the over. But when you have pets
and cats that like to play with that toilet paper,
if it's over, they shred the whole role. They spit
it and it doesn't come off the roll.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Interesting Okay, but that's interesting man. That's uh, that makes
perfect sense what you're talking about, because if they're swatting
at the front of it and it is the under
You're right, it just spins and it never unravels, and
the other way it certainly would. That's a man. That's
a good point.

Speaker 5 (08:12):
Cats the toilet, play with it, and got to turn
them backwards in that bathroom because they will go through
a roll.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Wow, you help that cat go into the toilet bowl
one time. It will never go near the toilet paper again.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
That's interesting, Mike. Thanks man, that's good. I didn't even
think about that.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Damn. Oh he's fluffy, a little bit moist. Now you
have a cat, yes you do, just one, yes, just one.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
They're stuck out.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
The queen has a cat. I don't have a cat.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
Well, they're stuck up, like does the cat like I'm
going to put up with you. It's that's really.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Their condescending little cat face. Yeah and yeah, it's a
you know, you serve me. That's the cat as the
whole just serve me. I come home at night, Loupa's
at the door, Daddy, Daddy, glad to see you, and
the cats in my chair going what you want is so? Yeah,
it's cats and I are not on the same level.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
If they had thumbs, they wouldn't need us, Chuck, that's true,
telling you David, welcome to the show. Hey, how you doing,
Hey man, doing great?

Speaker 5 (09:17):
What you got I've never called in before, but you know,
toilet paper is.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
A thing for me.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
Just over look at the patent. He go over the top.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Man, I'm with you so and I'm sure you heard
us talking about it. But that is interesting. But yeah,
you say to yourself, how could somebody put it in
the under position unless they have a cat that's undried.
I get that, So that makes sense to me. But
it's just like, why under what it makes it? Why?
Why would it be?

Speaker 4 (09:50):
I see it?

Speaker 1 (09:52):
Yeah, you're like me, then okay, interesting.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
Yeah, that's the patent that's not supposed to be.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Thanks brother, Thank you. Never give people a choice, just
make it to where they have to do it that way,
although I don't know how you would.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
It is amazing what motivates our listeners. Serious, I've never
called before, but you're talking toilet paper and I need
to be heard.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
I love it, David, Please call any time, brother, seriously.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Yeah, we can talk other bathroomcouterls.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
I love it. I love it. Did you know that
there is a COVID nineteen variant with a name Razor Blade?

Speaker 2 (10:28):
Of course there is, of course there. What does this
one come from?

Speaker 1 (10:31):
I've just about had it with these, But I told
you earlier when we were going to do the show
I go, we haven't haven't had a good COVID bashing conversation.
Razor blade throat is what they're A painful sore throat,
often referred to as a razor blade throat, is just
one of the symptoms of the new COVID nineteen variant.

(10:53):
Or it could be a symptom of say it with me,
a sore throat. You know what it does?

Speaker 5 (10:59):
Sound like like a really cool like welcome to the
death metal concert, Welcome razor blades risk.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yeah, it would be a cool bait like put dreams
together for razor blade throats. Right, tickets on sale now Ticketmaster.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
That's a sad, sad thing, razor blade throat, I mean
that just sounds foul.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
The very currently being monitored by the World Health Organization
considering the available evidence. The additional public health risk posed
by NB one point eight point one, Oh.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
My gosh, that's worse than windows.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Is evaluated as low at the global level.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
So better warn everybody and mask up.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
It's like what and currently approved COVID nineteen vaccines are
expected to remain effective. So if you were wondering if
the JAB that you've received or are getting or continue
to get are you know effective versus this? They are.
You're in luck, so don't worry, you're protected.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
I thought you were going when I saw the name
razor blade thought, I'm like, okay, if you shave against
the grain, you could be infected. I didn't know what
was coming.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
How common chuck is NB one point eight point one?
You ask you didn't, but uh putting that in.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Your bittess words in your mouth?

Speaker 1 (12:23):
Okay. For a two week period starting on May twenty
fifth and ending June seventh, the CDCs did you know
they have now cast. It's called now cast, the CDC's NowCast.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
What is that like a streaming service for diseases.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah, it's a tracker that shows projections for the different
COVID nineteen variants. According to the latest CDC data, this
strain is the second highest in the US and it
makes up thirty seven percent of the total cases of
COVID nine.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
Okay, now, wait a minute, let's go back to what
you said before. Global impact probability is low, but it's
the second highest strain in the US. Now think about that.
Those two facts that they're giving you, these are their words,
means it's nothing.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
It is nothing. As a matter of fact, all of
this has been nothing. It really has.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
When a virus comes to your house, it keeps the
house clean, makes it doesn't change the toilet paper, leaves it.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
In the under Yeah, I just I you know. Then
they go the CDC outlines the following is common night
common COVID nineteen symptoms, and then they just go over
symptoms that could really represent every other thing you get
sick with. The only thing that I've seen with regard

(13:41):
to COVID is the taste. Thing that's not typically associated
with anything else unless you have a stuff he knows
because you're sick, and then you can't really taste any
you know what I mean. Yeah, people will say with
the COVID, oh I lost my I lost my I've
had COVID twice, but least defined that I had COVID twice.
And yeah, it was certainly a little bit nastier than whatever.

(14:05):
And I never suffered from losing taste, which was usually
a tailtale, but that one never It never got to me.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Part of tasting is smelly. Yes, part of having a
cold is having blocked nasal passage swollen nasal passages. You
can't smell things. Therefore, your sense of taste is diminished.
They acted like that was some revelation from planet Pluto
that you could lose your sense of taste when you
got it right.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
They never did say, though, it's yeah, you lose your
sense of taste along with the stuff he knows, or
because you're right, that's a common sense thing that kind
of is in tandem with yeah. But I think they
just meant you lose it. And even though you're clear,
nasals clear, and it's you hear about people after the
fact going still don't have the taste and they're clear

(14:50):
as far as nasal, and all of that goes. Let's
go back to something a little lighter hearted. Alan, welcome
to the show. You got thoughts on the toilet paper
thing we were talking about.

Speaker 4 (15:00):
Yeah, So I manage a facility and a fellow conservative
coworker came to me. Part of my team is the
custodial staff. And this guy came to me and said, look,
you need to tell them to have the roles coming
from under And I said, okay, why like in a
commercial facility. Who cares? He said, look, man, it's a

(15:22):
lot easier when you pull it out. It actually lists
the roll up just a little bit, and it makes
it easier to come out, so I tried it out.
Kind of makes sense in the commercial, you know, in
those metal boxes that have the two rolls, right, So
for what it's worth at home, I go over. So yeah,
there you go.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
Interesting boxes because when the first role goes, you can
never get the second role going. You got to stick it.
If your hand's too big, you can't get it up
in there to get the end. Yeah. I don't know
who designed those, but I hate them.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
And the one up top if it's resting on the
one down below. He is right with the waterfall style
intends to you don't get many squares off before it
tears well.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
And Cheryl Crow says you only need one anyway, one square.
Don't you remember that Cheryl Crow said we're killing the planet.
You only need one square of toilet paper. But does
she wipe it apparently her little skinny behind, because I
need two and a half rolls. Sometimes it depends on
what I had.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
It could depend on that. You absolutely are right. One
square is certainly completely off.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
Good luck with that, no question
