On brew Bus that following morning. So we're just ironing
out the date. That's all okay. So we still don't
know the date for that now, because.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Because we were thinking it was gonna because peoplere like,
I thought it was this weekend and that was an
original idea, but that we never know.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
We we threw that around last week. We kicked that around,
But it just wasn't enough time to turn that around.
And then the venue that we're using was already buked.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
So we're still working on It's gonna happen there, just
we don't know when. Yeah, yeah, so working on that. Okay,
just checking because if someone was asked me yesterday, they
thought it was this weekend for some reason.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
Uh, because that we did. We talked about actually on
air about because all of a sudden, are our friday
became available.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
We thought it, my god, we can't have an available weekend.
We have to work all the time. Yeah, to have
a couple of weeks to.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Circumstances changed on something and then uh that became available,
it just wasn't enough time to turn it around.

Speaker 5 (03:43):
I wanted to calm down.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, we didn't get a little a little, a little,
a little space for sure.

Speaker 4 (03:46):
Yeah, it'll happen, guys, I promise. And uh. The other
thing is like, you know, turntables are being worked on
and I'm I'm getting those back here soon real quick.
And so just a couple moving pieces that are going
on there that.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, So and we had a meeting
initially after the show. Once again, I kind of talked
about this a little bit the other day. But just
you know, I can't thank you guys enough. I mean,
the ratings are all year this year, it's been amazingly
you know, wonderful. Thank you guys. Number one showing talent
again and uh for the you know this other court
they do by the quarters, you know, uh, we tell
you by a month because we we we keep track

(04:20):
all the time. But but yeah, and I'm been ride
home and just thinking, man, Okay, you know, we've definitely
earned it this year though, like we've worked, we've been
out a lot, you know, uh when you wake up
you know, three of the morning and then doing those
the nighttime events or whatever on the weekends. It can
be a little taxing. But we've definitely earned the ratings
this time. You know what I mean, Ryan, like is

(04:41):
that like they do, they just gave them the sweat.
It wasn't just an accident. It was just an accident.
We busted there, you know.

Speaker 6 (04:48):
Yeah, hars working radio show in the business easily.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Yeah, because it's not like we're not We're already.

Speaker 6 (04:54):
Doing one hour more than anybody else by far. A
lot of these guys, even like I'm talking across the
country only do like three hours.

Speaker 5 (05:01):
They're not going out everywhere all over the place.

Speaker 6 (05:04):
They're not shaking the hands and kissing the babies and
having the fun like we're doing well.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
And I always thinking, like when you know, it hit
me once again when we went out to Ta various
you know, and here, you know, here's angel and I
you know, humping the tables and putting up the equipment
and that putting the signs up, and like, I know,
you might you guys might think all that the number
one show in town. I'm sure they've got a crew
of people that work for them. No, guys, like we're
doing it, man, and so so I don't know, I

(05:28):
think it makes me a little more proud of the ratings.
Is like we really scrapped and and kicked some ass
for these, you know. Uh, And obviously we appreciate the
listeners and and and everybody that uh, you know, as
you're telling their other friends and and uh and I
think obviously the YouTube channel helps tremendously. And then uh,
and all the fun we had, you know, the girls
that come in you know, like uh, you know, Angelique

(05:50):
and Daisy and Amber and some ann and all the
girls help tremendously as well. But uh uh yeah, we
worked hard for the ratings this year and it was
so it was a complete year of all number one,
which is uh uh which is cool, which is really cool.
So we had that to had that meeting yesterday. So
after the meeting yesterday, I promised my wife. She said, listen,

(06:10):
I got something you know, Uh, there's a movie I
really want to see, And can you when you get home,
can you do all your work and stuff and then
can you can we put the put the phone down
and just watch it with me because I'm really excited
to watch this movie. And I'm like, I'll do you
one better. I'll just come home and I won't do
any because I didn't post anything yesterday. I didn't pull
a I was gonna pull a clip from yesterday show
and put it up and put it on all the

(06:32):
social media. That takes a couple hours to do it.
You know, it takes a while to to just it
just you know, takes some time. So I'm like, I
won't even do that today. I'll skip that the day
because you know, if no one's gonna care for miss
a day of that uh and uh and and I'll
just watch the movie with you know, put the phone
in the other room. Well, not realizing that I got
my new iPhone yesterday. It came yesterday. She signed for it,

(06:55):
and so I got my new iPhone seventeen. Uh so
obviously it was called my name. I wanted to go
ahead and set everything up, but I had already promised.
I said, no, I'll just I'll watch this movie with you.
And the movie is okay. The movie may or may
not hit with everybody, but for me and for her,

(07:16):
it was really a great movie. It's called Code three.
It's got a guy in it from the Office, guy
named Rain Wilson. He's also I guess he does the
Office and another show in Parks and rec or something
like that. Do you know who Rain rain Wilson is.

Speaker 5 (07:32):
Yeah, I played Dwight on the Office, but I don't
know any other show that he's in.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Okay, okay, all right, So he's the star of this.
And then there's a guy, a guy that was has
been in Marvel movies Little Little Real, Little Yeah Little Real, Yeah,
yeah yeah little. Well, he's in it and he's really
funny in this. And basically this is a movie about
being a paramedic. But whoever wrote it was actually a
paramedic and it was really it was actually it was

(07:58):
really funny but really good because all of the things
that Mary Ellen has told me about being a paramedic
come up in this movie. I'm like, oh my, you
told me about like you know, like something would happen.
I'm like, oh, you told me about that. That's one
of the things you told me would happen. And it was,
like she said, as far as you know, movies about
her industry or movies about her career or her job

(08:19):
or whatever, this nailed it better than any movie. Like
there were little things that she had already told me
about that I'm like, okay, yeah, that's something you had
mentioned to me, Like, like, well a little thing that
there was a there was there were training a new paramedic,
and the new paramedic was you know, got out of
the ambulance, was running over to the car to go
help somebody whatever, and they're like, no, no, you don't run,
you don't run. I'm like, oh, you told me that.

(08:41):
I didn't really kind of believe it. But when you're
a paramedic, they teach you, hey, listen, it's it's their emergency.
But you don't run to it because if you do,
you get all flustered or whatever and you could trip
and fall and then and then you know they then
you can't get to them. So paramedics are supposed to
calmly walk over to, you know, a situation like that.
And there were several other things that she had told

(09:02):
me about being a paramedic that they cover in this movie.
And it was actually pretty good. Now, it was one
of those ones that you got to rent it for
like three dollars, so it's not going to be a
major hit or anything like that, but it made me
think about, you know, okay, when it comes to someone's
corect like she really loved it because it hit her
career perfectly or her job perfectly, like it depicted it right,

(09:22):
you know, it didn't Sometimes there are other movies that'll
show watch and have a paramedic like, well that that's
not that would never happen, you know what they just
did that. Paramedics don't do that. So I was thinking about,
like for our listeners, like what movie have you watched
that hits your career right on the right, on the nose,
right like does a really good job at depicting your
career now ours is kind of easy. You know. I

(09:45):
think Private Parts is pretty much perfect for depicting what
it's like to be in radio, because obviously Howard was
in radio, and everything he depicted was was pretty accurate.
The way you have to deal with, you know, the yeah,
personal relationships, we have to deal with with a program director,
the way everyone's telling you this is not gonna work,
and then it does work, like like all that stuff. Like.

(10:05):
That's the perfect probably radio movie. Along with there's another
movie called Talk Radio that I think is an Oliver
Stone movie that that is old man. It's from the eighties,
like early eighties. That is another perfect movie about talk radio.
Those are the two that come up in my head.
And then if if I'm going to say that I'm
a professional wrestler or was, you know, I was paid

(10:27):
to professional wrestlers overtime, so I can I guess I
can talk for that. The movie The Wrestler with what
tell us his name? Uh, it's called The Wrestler and
it's got Marissa Tormeat in it and the dude that
Mickey Rourke. Yeah, that's another actually perfect movie about professional wrestling.

(10:50):
Angel what What What movie. Can you think of that
perfectly like nails like being a dju oh.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
Man, there's a there's a handful. It's typically uh like
for like, for example, Juice, I thought captured the aesthetic
of DJ in I never saw Juice. It's the one
with Tupac shacor okay and that that there's elements of
that there in the DJ battle kind of thing. There's
a couple other ones. When it came to the radio stuff,
there was there's other ones that I like. I like

(11:20):
Howard S Turns movie. I always got it. I understood
and and and I got the gist of it. But
there was another one called Talk to Me, and it
was about a d C DJ who was world famous
out of the DC area. That was one I want
to see that It was what was his name, Green
Green Green P D Green Katy Green is like urban
music DJ that like that. I remember him and that

(11:42):
movie really spoke to me. And then there was this
is the one that for me romantically like when I
view radio music radio through romantic eyes and and the
picture it. In the sixties seventies in the UK, they
had to do these pirate radio stations. They were you know,
you know, basically kind of revolting against the BBC and
everything like that. And they would put these pirate radio

(12:04):
stations on these ships and they would broadcast.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Oh I saw that, yeah, yeah, and so it was cool.

Speaker 4 (12:10):
Yeah, and it was you know, it's who's I can't
remember our guys in that movie?

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Isn't that the guy played Capodi's in the.

Speaker 4 (12:18):
Philip seymour Hoffe. Yeah, he's in it. Bill and Eyes
in it. There's a lot of really cool guys in it.
And in my mind, I was like, that's the coolest
version of radio ever.

Speaker 5 (12:28):
You know, I can one up you.

Speaker 6 (12:30):
The coolest version of radio movie for me is nineteen
ninety four's movie starring one Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, and
Adam Sandler.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
What's that?

Speaker 5 (12:38):
And that's the movie Airheads.

Speaker 6 (12:41):
I don't remember the movie Airheads where they're in a
band and they go and like hold a.

Speaker 5 (12:45):
Radio station hostage.

Speaker 6 (12:46):
Yeah, and then so they'll play there, they'll play their songs,
they can get big.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
So, okay, we got to take a break. I want
to find out what movie perfectly depicts being a stand
up comic for you, And then listeners, are you going
to work right now? Think about it. The movie I
was talking was is called Code three and it is
Mary Ellen. I actually loved it as well because I
got to see all the little east I knew all
the little east rings, what was happening. I'm like, oh
my god, you told me that happened, like as far

(13:11):
as like if you wake somebody up from narcan, like
if someone is odd, and then when a paramedic wakes
them from Narcan, they wake up and they're pissed off
because you ruined their high. And she was punched in
the face, she said over a dozen times because when
she saved their life, they were pissed off and they
want to fight, you know, and she's like, watch what's
gonna happen, And it's exactly what happened in the movie.

(13:32):
A lot of these little things that she had told
me about being a paramedic were dead on and it
was a really good movie. If you were paramedic, you
would absolutely love it. I think most people would like
this movie because it did have a lot of funny
parts and it had a lot of heartfelt parts or whatever.
But it's called Code three, but you know, apply it
to your life in your career, your job, what movie
do you think best depicks what you do? And you

(13:54):
can text us at seven seven zero three on if
if you want to play a long all right, don't
go anywhere into the match of the morning. A lot
of people texting in trying to figure out what, like
what movie they've seen that it depicts, you know, their
their occupation or their job really well, because a lot

(14:17):
of times you'll see something in a movie like oh,
that's not the way that works. And I've seen really
bad like radio movies and like, oh, that's not the
way that doesn't go like that. Now with this movie
that we saw yesterday, it is called Code three, it's
about paramedics. Another thing that they there's all these little
things that they show that Mary Owen's like, that's exactly
what it's like. One of the things is they show
this thing and she's told me this before that when

(14:39):
people find out you're a paramedic, one of the first
things someone will says, what's the worst thing you ever saw?
And the last thing a paramedic wants to really do
is to talk about think about it. If someone says, hey,
what's the worst thing you ever saw in your life?
And then you've got to relive.

Speaker 5 (14:54):
That yeah you did that the other day to a guy.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah yesterday, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. That's the last thing
that they want to do is to is to remember
the worst day of their life, you know. And then
and they goes through and it shows like all the
you know, day after day after day they have to
see you kids dying and all this horrible stuff. And
then they go off to dinner or whatever people want
to talk about it, and like so then that's at

(15:18):
some point then they just start talking about it with
everybody and it's all these little nuances of being a paramedic.
It was just really really perfect, and it made me think, Man,
how many movies actually nail it? And I think the
reason this nailed it is because the guy that wrote
it was a paramedic. Uh So for talk Radio, the
first thing I kept thinking was Howard Stearns's movie Private Parts.
That's pretty you know, it's pretty dead on. And then

(15:41):
the movie Talk Radio that had Eric Pegozian in it,
and I don't know if anyone's ever seen it.

Speaker 5 (15:47):
But that's the move about Alan Berg, right, Yes, yeah, that's.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
A good movie.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
That's a really goodie man, And that's that reminds, well,
you know who helped on that movie was a consultant
was Ed Till, and Ed Till used to be on
this radio station. Because Till's act was more like that guy,
like he was there to piss you off. That was
the real you know, and he was trying to make
everybody mad and he made someone so mad that he

(16:11):
got shot and killed. And so you know, it's a
true story that is is terrible. But you know, I
could identify with everything in that in that movie. But
for you Ryan, like, when it comes to comedy, like
stand up comedy movies, can you think of one that
depicts that industry?

Speaker 6 (16:27):
A lot of the great ones because they're it's like,
it's the same way. I don't like movies about writers
where like the writers the main character because they like
do this weird thing where they romanticize it too much.
I think the closest ones that I've seen, well, there's two.
One would be Funny People with Adam Sandler, if you
ignore the story about him trying to get his wife back,

(16:47):
him taking him being a successful comedian, taking a green
comedian under his wing. Yeah, it's kind of accurate on
how that goes. And then there's a great movie by
Mike Birbiglia. It's called Sleepwalk with Me, and it's an
autobiographical tale where he's a stand up comedian but he
also has a sleepwalking problem at the same time.

Speaker 5 (17:05):
Right, So that's pretty good.

Speaker 6 (17:07):
But the movie that I saw about an industry that
I was in that's the most accurate would be the
movie Waiting when I was like a bartender and a
service with Ryan Reynolds. With Ryan Reynolds Man, that movie
nail it, really, that nails it. Yeah, guy, the guy
who wrote it, I guess you used to work it
like a TGI Fridays.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Here in Orlando.

Speaker 6 (17:23):
Yeah, And that movie, barring a couple of things, obviously
some things are exaggerated, but like that's the most spot
on thing of the service industry that I've ever seen. Yeah,
just the shenanigans that you pull, the interpersonal drama. Uh,
they do the thing where they like mess with people's
food in that movie, which I've actually never seen in
my entire like decade of working in the service industry.

(17:46):
But so that one does it for me all day.
I actually have seen that in a while. Should check
that out again.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
And as I was thinking about this, you know, on
the way in thinking about a topic, like you know, everybody,
I was thinking, everybody's got some film that applies to
their job or their career. But maybe not. I mean
there are something like I don't know, like in the
insurance industry. Is there a movie where hey man, they
really nailed the insurance industry.

Speaker 5 (18:11):
It's gotta be right, I guess I don't know.

Speaker 4 (18:14):
That's why, you know, I would say that in those instances,
that isn't the forefront of the movie, Like that's like
there's probably a character that has played an insurance a guy,
but that's that's that's what's driving the movie. But they
do things or they set this thing up with this
character and he does that you know kind of thing.

Speaker 6 (18:32):
Isn't that the movie falling down? Isn't he like an
insurance an.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
Adjuster like that?

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (18:37):
For example, I just saw this k K. H Kwan
that we talked to him.

Speaker 5 (18:44):
He's yeah, from everything everywhere at the same time.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Anyone an Academy Award and he was.

Speaker 4 (18:50):
In so he just so he got a chance to
like be the lead in the movie.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
And I just forgot the name of the movie. It's
on Amazon right now and uh, I mean I saw
it and it's it's an action movie. Marsha Marshaun Wentz
is in it. There's a bunch of uh other guy
you know, uh famous people in it, and he plays
a realtor. Okay, so the realtor part of it is
just kind of what pushes the story along, you know

(19:17):
what I'm saying. So and just knowing some of my
friends that are really hurt, thank you. Uh they got
some you know, they got the tones of the tempt
you know, the beats of it. Correctly, Man, it was
an okay movie.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
But when you said that for realtory, I'm like, okay,
well there's American beauty. There's a realtor, a whole realtor.

Speaker 4 (19:36):
They use that, and that's like the like a part
of the vehicle of the movie. Yeah yeah, because you
know his wife stepping out on.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
Him right right, right, right, right right. I wonder when
obviously there's a lot of cop movies, right, I wonder
which cop movie a police officers take that nails it
more than any other movie, you know, he you think
Heat Naked Gun, No, if you're if you're a police officer.
Texas at seven seven zero three, one. What a police movie,

(20:04):
drama movie.

Speaker 4 (20:05):
I don't know if you guys really nails it for
a lot of guys, I've heard that huge. I don't
know if you've ever seen this one Colors. I remember
LAPD Colors that Sean Penn, Yeah, at the time I
did see it. Just a couple of my friends that
you know ended up going that way said that that

(20:26):
really captured a moment in like between gang culture and
the related relationships that they had with the LAPD.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Yeah, yeah, it was neat to see that. How excited
Mary Ellen was to see a movie that actually portrayed
her her industry, you know, because they boy, they do
get they do because they they show a part of
the movie where they show they're going through a hospital
and you see police officers and you see doctors, and
you see nurses, and above their head they're showing how
much they make a year, like well, this nurse makes

(20:54):
this a year, doctor makes this a year, the janitor
makes this a year. The paramedic medic makes less than
the janitor in the hospital. And that's another thing that's
that's portrayed in it that that pretty much nails it right.
I don't know why anyone would become a paramedic with well,
all they have to do and all they have to
see and how hard it is and the way they
get treated at a hospital is is fairly bad. But

(21:15):
it depicts it perfectly in this this movie. So the
guy Rained Wilson, I didn't watch The Office, but was
he a big, a big part of the Office Ryan.

Speaker 5 (21:24):
Oh, yeah, he's one of the main characters.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
He's one main characters. Okay, Yeah, he does really.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
Good at us taking Ryan. Have you noticed or have
you kept up with him like what he's done after that?

Speaker 6 (21:34):
Yeah, it's I mean, like I saw it on All
those actors recently were like other than Krazinsky who played
Gym in the Office, those guys were part of literally
one of the biggest television shows of all time, and
that is still the most replayed show to this day.
So all of them have a huge problem walking away

(21:55):
from like the character that they are. So that guy
like Rain Wilson, Unfortunately, even in I had, even when
I don't want to allow it will always be Dwight
Shrewd in my head from the Understood and what he
takes weird indie rolls to like try to get around
it much of the way like Daniel Radcliffe did, right.

Speaker 4 (22:09):
I will even go step further with him, and because
this is where my my entry to him is he's
on this mission and trying to be a positive beacon
of light in this murky world of social media and everything.
And so he's done some like he's got a podcast
and a couple other things where he's you know, openly

(22:30):
talking about you know, let's say religion or the positive
thing like like he just trying to be I guess
a better outlet or a place where you can go
to capture that kind of stuff. And that's where he's
popped up more on my timeline for stuff than that
than anything that I've ever seen him. In the office,
he talked to me about the other guy, little real,
Little real, little real.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Okay? Was he He was in a Marvel movie, right,
was it? He in like the because he was Beatle.
The kid that played the blue Beatle is also in
the movie, and I thought he was in that as well.
But he's always like a funny guy in a movie.

Speaker 6 (23:08):
He I mean, his first big box office that I
saw man because he's he's a comic.

Speaker 5 (23:13):
Yeah, it was Get Out Okay, where he.

Speaker 6 (23:15):
Was in get Out and then, uh, I.

Speaker 5 (23:18):
Don't see a Marvel. He was in Free Guy with
Ryan Reynolds.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
I was convinced he was in a Marvel movie for
some reason or maybe another maybe another like a DC
movie or something, because he looked really familiar.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
He's really funny, he's done Look, he's done a ton
of like character roles. Yeah, so he ends up being
in a bunch of a bunch of movies that I'm
trying to I'm going through his uh movies to see
if there's anything that you would have seen, And it
doesn't look like that.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
I know I've seen him, but like, oh, I know
that guy, like he's you know.

Speaker 5 (23:50):
Like I said, he's super he's one a Kevin Hart's guy.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
Did you see him?

Speaker 4 (23:54):
Honestly, yeah, I can't.

Speaker 5 (23:57):
Like I remember you saw a Free Guy right in
the back.

Speaker 4 (24:01):
He was in that. He was also in a Bad
Trip Fatherhood.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Well, he's very funny in this, and and there's and
they and he does actually comedic stuff. And then there's
a whole scene where it's super dramatic and he has
to really act because they're about to kill somebody or
whatever and he has to handle it and Uh. And
it's a wow. That was pretty pretty great range for
that guy. Even this movie's probably not going to get
a whole bunch of attention, you know, I'm only I

(24:27):
was only watching it because, you know, Mary Ellen wanted
to because she's a paramedic. It's actually really good. It
probably will get ignored.

Speaker 6 (24:33):
Yeah, I'm looking at the box. It made ten thousand
dollars in the job.

Speaker 5 (24:38):
Yeah. I never even heard of it.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Yeah, I know. And you wouldn't have if I didn't
bring it up. And I wouldn't have heard of it
if my wife was so excited to watch it, you know.
But it did depict her industry, uh to a tee
and pretty perfectly. Okay, you other things you've done, Angel, Look,
you've been a bank, you worked at a bank. Uh.
Is there a movie that nails the banking industry perfectly?
He as you said for Heat, Yeah, it was a.

Speaker 6 (25:02):
Really great social media channel that kind of depicts it.
Really was called Brazilian Big Banks.

Speaker 4 (25:07):
Well, I will say this certain bank heist movies nail
it with if I had never been a part of
working in the branch. Yeah, and this is at the
beginning of my you know, run in banking and what
it is when they deliver like the big stacks of cash. Right. So,
the particular Wells Fargo that I worked for in northern California,

(25:30):
they would get these huge, giant drops, drops of volumes
of cash because being close to the farm lands and everything,
and at the time, all you needed was just any
kind of picture I d and they would cast your
check and we would cash people's payroll checks. And so
the you know, coming up to a payday, we would

(25:51):
get that you know, that armored vehicle come in and
just big, giant, huge like what you see and heat
where they cut it open to make it room for
the bag. Yeah, that's the same way we would do
it to start to you know, count it and put
it into the tills and everything, right, and so you
see when you see that those little details being depicted

(26:12):
and like where the alarms are and that kind of
stuff and everything you did on Yeah, you're like, okay
that I've done that where I'm like, okay, I remember that.
That seems kind of accurate, you know, And then there's
the other ones where you're like, okay, that would have
never happened that.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
Way, you know. So if I'm gonna play alog with
my other career when I had a party rental company.
The only movie I could think of that nails the
party rental thing perfectly is Steal Magnolia's and still Steal
Magnolia is the opening scene when they're getting ready for
the wedding and the and the rental company shows up. Now,
the only thing that's not they have a crew of
like fifty people, and that would never happen. But for

(26:46):
the most part, the way they're putting up the tent,
the way they're carrying in you know, they got the
the champagne fountains and stuff, the way they have them
all red like all that is pretty perfect. But I
haven't seen a whole lot of movies were they show
the rental company, so so you know, I would have
to scramble for that one. I'm sure a lot of
listeners like, man, I don't know my career, they never

(27:07):
but okay, they do show there is a movie about
being I was thinking abou dumping dumpsters. They do.

Speaker 5 (27:12):
Got a man at work, Yes.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
I bet that Nails being a sanitation engineer.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
He did another one. It was Repo Man. Okay, yeah,
I really did Man.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Yeah, yeah, Hannibal Burr. I did think. I did think
he was Hannibal Burrs for a little while when I
was watching that movie yesterday. But I might know that's
not Hannibal Burrs. Uh, but I knew I'd seen this
guy before, but he was very, very very good in it.
Did you have any other careers Ryan that that nail
that you've seen a movie that nails it?

Speaker 6 (27:47):
I mean other than like people always say, like when
I was going to law school, that my cousin Vinnie
is the most legally accurate law movie.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
No.

Speaker 6 (27:56):
Yeah, really, if you ask Ray, if you asked Moe
de Witt, they'll tell you like my Cousin Vinny is
like as close as it gets to an actual how
the law works movies.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
I would think it would be the one with you
can't Handle the Truth? What's that with you?

Speaker 5 (28:09):
Good men?

Speaker 2 (28:09):
Do good bend?

Speaker 5 (28:10):
Well?

Speaker 6 (28:10):
That's that's that's a military one at the same time.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Where they have to study And really, I don't know.
I always thought that that seemed like it.

Speaker 6 (28:19):
Was pretty real sag isn't he like is Yeah, I
don't know.

Speaker 5 (28:23):
I don't know anything about that world.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
Well, and I've never been an attorney either. I just
assumed that the.

Speaker 6 (28:27):
Military attorney is very different than like your standard civilian attorney.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Right right, right, right right?

Speaker 5 (28:33):
They got guns they Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (28:36):
I think it's like movies that are like based in reality.
I can see how the movie Office Space was like
based on like just working in an office now that
I work in one.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
There was a movie but with remember what was it
named Janine garof Genie.

Speaker 6 (28:54):
Must Love Dogs, Graining cats and Dogs, Yes, just about
kats and dogs about and.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
She was a talk show host talked about dogs and stuff.
That one that was actually pretty accurate when it came
to being.

Speaker 6 (29:06):
A talk about about Fraser Fraser TV show. He was
a radio psychologist.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
I would watch that and I would be like, they
don't get a break at that time, and like there
was a lot of missteps.

Speaker 6 (29:17):
What about the news radio I don't remember news radio
with Joe Joe Rogan was one of the Hartman Yeah,
Joe Rogan, Yeah, I didn't know that Bill Hartman.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
They Mike No, I can't think of his name now.

Speaker 4 (29:35):
Incredible ensemble cast, that's what it was.

Speaker 5 (29:37):
The great show.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
Yeah, if I catch it, I'll sit and watch it.
Because what they do and so they don't handle so
much the broadcast part of it, but all the behind
the scenes stuff and you'll catch stuff and you're like, Okay,
I need to.

Speaker 5 (29:48):
Watch that now that I'm in radio now.

Speaker 6 (29:50):
Show that I've never seen that I know is about radio,
very famous scene where they throw turkeys out of a
helicopter w k R.

Speaker 5 (29:55):
And is that like radio at all? I don't know what.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
I didn't watch that when I was a kid. That
was in the seventies, and I did. I never see
Give it a watch.

Speaker 6 (30:04):
I'd be curious to see what you think like And
because you were there at that time and then you're
in radio now, you should find it on Amazon.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
Or he was a wild morning show guy. I remember that.
I forget his name now, but I never actually watched it.
Lennie Anderson was in it, but I never actually watched it.
All right, we'll take a little break. Don't go anywhere.
You're listening to the matter of the morning, Day three
of my big, big pushy beard. Did you see it right?

(30:33):
Did you see the scruffy? See the gray?

Speaker 6 (30:37):
I can see a little bit and cameras good luck,
like a like a grizzled like a hardcore radio guy.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
Now, oh yeah, that's it.

Speaker 5 (30:45):
Okay, I'll be a hardcore radio guy.

Speaker 4 (30:46):
That's good.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Yeah. Hey, if you we have now almost twenty people
that have built scarecrows for the for the Parade of
Scarecrows event which is happening, well, you have to have

(31:50):
the movie and it was really good. I super enjoyed it.
I enjoyed seeing how much like Mary Ellen loved it,
and then how much she actually knew about being a
paramedic because she was for thirty years. But like all
this stuff like I'm on, wow, okay, you actually know
what you're talking about, which was which was good.

Speaker 4 (32:07):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
And so then as soon as the movie was over
and I didn't touch my phone the entire time, I
was good. Like a lot of times I'll be watching
a movie and I'll grab my phone, but uh, I
had not up well uploaded it, I guess is what
you call or switched it over or whatever. So because
the new iPhone seventeen came in, so I had to
do the switchover. They make the switch over as easy

(32:28):
as possible. I mean, you open it up, you turn
it on, you put the two phones together, and the
switchover is nothing. The problem is when you go to
your apps. You have to know and remember all of
your passwords for every app that you have, and and
you know, start those up again. And that was a
big pain. In the matter of fact, I still can't

(32:49):
get on the I was gonna see if you can
help me, Ryan. I can't get on the real radio
Instagram yet. I tried several times. I couldn't. I couldn't
figure that out because because I didn't have the coat
or whatever, the code you need whatever you Yeah, oh
that's a jack thing, okay, uh so, but everything else,
it just took. It just took forever to get it
all switched over. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (33:11):
I recently just did it right before I went on vacation,
and I was surprised at how some of the stuff
did switch over. Like Facebook, I don't have the type
of new password. In a lot of different stuff, I
didn't have to some of them. I did some of
them random. But the one, the one that got me
was I had to text you on Monday. I couldn't
get in the building either.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Yeah. Well I was only gonna tell that story. Yeah,
so I did all of that, you know, and I
couldn't get my phone to pair with my uh my
blazer for some reason this morning.

Speaker 5 (33:36):
And I was, you have a jacket that's a smart jacket.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
No, no, no, I mean my Chevy Blazer, not my car.

Speaker 5 (33:43):
My car.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
I couldn't get it the pair with the car this morning,
and I don't have the They changed jacket, they changed
the wiring or whatever the USBC now, Yeah, so I
can't plug it right into my truck yet. I had
to order some of those, so I was trying to
do that. But I get to work at five o'clock.
And for those just so you know, this place is
like a fortress. This place is I mean the security here.

(34:05):
There's a security doors downstairs which I have a certain
pass for, but when you get up on the fourth floor,
you have to have a certain pass that's on your
phone to get into the building. So I it was
five o three. Russ was walking up there eighty to
get in here and set everything up and do my thing.
And I try to get my new iPhone seventeen to work.

(34:27):
It says I need a password, and I'm like okay,
and I put it in. Doesn't work, doesn't work, doesn't work,
and I'm getting frustrated, and now I'm it was it
was like forty minutes. I was down there for forty minutes.
Nobody was coming in this building. Angel. It was like
like nobody, no other radio shows, no other anybody else.
Like I was down there for forty minutes trying to

(34:47):
get in, and the.

Speaker 4 (34:48):
Guys that were here, you probably had just missed them.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
Maybe, yeah, Lizzie, And Lizzie ends up coming up and
she and she let me in. But that was a
bit on the frustrating side. But but then we're kel
got to me and now I got it all set
and so it's all good. But they make the switch
over pretty easy and then you you mail your old
phone back to them, Yeah, and they give you credit.

Speaker 6 (35:10):
I had a problem in mind though, because that's transferring
it over, and it's this the new phones have an
AIM it doesn't.

Speaker 5 (35:15):
Have a straight up SIM card in it.

Speaker 6 (35:17):
So I did something where I deleted the SIM card
off of the phone. I didn't hit some button and
I needed to hit first or I hit no to
something on accident, and I couldn't then transfer a lot
of like my financial stuff when it go over, because like, well,
this phone needs to be online for that. And that
was somewhere where I didn't have Wi Fi and so
like I had to completely reset my Apple Watch because.

Speaker 5 (35:39):
Of various things like this.

Speaker 6 (35:40):
For me, it was a little bit more of a
pain in the ass just because I hit the wrong
button and I'm unsure what button I hit.

Speaker 4 (35:44):
The over Just a quick question, right, just thinking about that,
did at any point were you concerned about traveling abroad,
about your social media whatever, your social media content or
any of that stuff.

Speaker 5 (35:56):
I didn't put them on this phone. That's why. That's
why I switched to the new phone. Travel.

Speaker 4 (35:59):
Is that what it was? Okay, gotcha, so you didn't
you didn't have any of that.

Speaker 6 (36:02):
I'm not getting pulled over in line. Try to explain
a Facebook's status update.

Speaker 2 (36:06):
Now, Hey, so what wasn't it nerve wracking when you
finally had to clear everything from the phone you had
been using, You know, because I was pretty SURET. Yeah,
you gotta hit the button for the full reset. It's
gonna factory reset everything.

Speaker 5 (36:19):
We gotta ship yours back, right, I have to ship
it back. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
I was so nervous to hit that. I'm like, I
hope I have everything. I'm not sure you know thet anyway? Yeah,
I know, but it still was nerve wracking. To hit
that button. Yeah, but I finally did, and I got
it all set and and and I'll set to go.
So it'll take it some time, I guess to pair
with the certain things. But I like it. It's that
bright orange one, you know.

Speaker 5 (36:42):
Yeah, but you're just gonna slap a case on it, right.

Speaker 2 (36:43):
I got a ClearCase so I can see the orange. Okay,
it's coming today with whatever. Because now I had to
I gotta. I had to buy all new wiring, you know,
chargers and stuff because it's a new charger.

Speaker 5 (36:55):
Situation was funny. I was real happy.

Speaker 6 (36:57):
One time I got the gold iPhone, right, and I'm like, oh, gold,
so cool. And then I just kept into the case.
And then one time I took the case off, like
a year later, I'm like, ohyeah, I got a gold.

Speaker 2 (37:04):
I I did the same thing, and I'm like, well,
it doesn't matter what color it is, because you always
have a ca So that's why I got a case
that was clear so I can see the color, which
is ridiculous. And then as of right now, there's nothing
this iPhone does different than the one I had before.
But I'm just a fancy pants and I wanted the
newer one and I.

Speaker 6 (37:20):
Just a little snappier, and they put a lot of
AI into it, and I just turned I turned all
my AI stuff, I.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
Turned all my AI on. I want it to be
as smart as it can be, uh, because I'm lacking
in that situation, and so if if AI can help me,
then it can be smart for me. I'm good for that.

Speaker 5 (37:36):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
Yeah, I got to doing everything. It doesn't all I
have to think less, which is good. All right. If
you want to play trivia, and now is the time,
