Speaker 1 (00:16):
It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Dan ol Maley along
with Trey Trentholm and Raj Sharma. Today is Monday, August eighteenth,
twenty twenty five. So excited to talk to you, Trey

(00:40):
and find out what happened at your dating event on Thursday.
Give us the lay of the land. Okay, what type
of an event was this? Was this like a speed
dating thing? Is it just to walk in and start
talking to people or like was there games?

Speaker 2 (01:01):
It was?

Speaker 3 (01:04):
If I had to give it a word, I would
say mixer.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
They had.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
The rooftop of this place on Greenville rented out. It's
called Tarazi Toaso. Really nice place, very nice rooftop there
were And remind you this event it sold out in
I think four minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
It's amazing, but.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
It was only one hundred and fifty people. The other
events they've done for the young'ins that they've gone up
to seven hundred people. The next event they're doing is
for to hold two thousand.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Oh my god. Okay, yeah, So the event that you
went to was for singles aged thirty five and up.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Correct, And I believe they were shocked that how many
of the of those there were. And I mean, I
think the next event thirty five plus they're planning is
more like an event of for like five hundred.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Or like which eyes wide shut kind of thing.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
I that's it's interesting because honestly, the event size of
one hundred and fifty was really good. So the event
was from seven thirty to nine thirty, shockingly, so thinking
like it's like everything else kind of in life, It
started at seven thirty. I got there at eight, which

(02:36):
party wise, seems like, you know, that was wrong. You
need to get there at seven thirty because the first
thing I figured out off out is you know, the
earlier there, you kind of pick who you want to
talk to and then everyone. So by eight o'clock a
lot of people had already kind of matched up and
are talking to people, and so you're then just waiting

(03:00):
for other people to come in that you can talk to,
or you know, people that free up. But but it
was it was a very nice event. And I think
the second thing that shocked me was like online dating,
they say there's like ten guys for every one girl.
They struggled to get enough guys here that was actually

(03:25):
how I got a ticket because the event sold out
so quick. I didn't. I had no idea. And then Abby,
the girl who founded this the dity trail thing, she posted, Hey,
I do still need guys thirty five plus and that's
I center of text. I was like, Yeah, I'm fifty one.
If that's too old, no worries. She's like, no, you're
perfect age, And honestly I was kind of fifty one

(03:46):
I would say was probably the median you know age.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
So that, right, there is a win going to a
dating event for thirty five and up and you're fifty
one and you're not the oldest dude in the room.
That's already a thumbs up. There's at least a little
bit of success going into it.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yeah, so how does it work.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
When you go in?

Speaker 1 (04:08):
So since you said it's like a mixer, so it's
basically just people show up and then they just kind
of go around from person to person or group to
group going like Hi, I'm Trey, I'm fifty one in
single or whatever.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
How does that work?

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Because if there's no structure to it, like say a
speed dating thing, then when and you show up late,
do you then just kind of stand off to the
side and kind of try to see if you can
get someone's attention and be kind of like, hi, would
you mean.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Like I mean, honestly, And it was just like being
in a bar. The only difference is you knew everyone
there was was there because they're on the dating for
this daity event, you know.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
In that case, that actually is really awesome because when
you go to a bar, just in general, you're on
a mission to meet somebody, but other people that are
at the bar might not be. They might just be
there hanging out with friends, or they're doing something else,
just something else entirely, so you're right, at least this
time you're going up to someone, everyone kind of knows

(05:14):
what to expect.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
Yeah, But and that that actually one of the other
things that shocked me is talking to people and overhearing conversations.
I guess so many, especially the girls, do speed dating
events because they also said it's the speed dating events
are normally more girls than guys. But I really I

(05:36):
envisioned speed dating after kind of overhearing everything and talking,
you know, kind of like that interaction between Macaulay Culkin
and John Candy and Uncle Buck, And I.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Think that's how you should absolutely approach it. You need
to go do speed dating, and you need to do
that scene.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
But this is also the sign of the times. When
you keep saying speed dating, I just imagine like meth
or coke, like.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
You know, that's speed dating.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
What's uptown?

Speaker 1 (06:10):
This Dallas?

Speaker 3 (06:11):
It can happen.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
They are not mutually exclusive. You can speed date while
on speed Yeah, it's.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
It's it's it's Dallas. You know they're bathrooms.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
It's practically a public nuisance at that point, or an
attractive nuisance.

Speaker 5 (06:29):
That's a great event to be a drug dealer at.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
Okay, so you're still single, mm hmm. But it sounds
like you would do this again.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Yeah, I would definitely do it again. I will do
it again. I'm going to do a speed dating event
just for s and giggles and you know, see, yall
can enjoy it.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
I think you want to come. I just want to
come with you.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
You need to go, you need to go, RAJ.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
Yeah, I just want to I just want to watch.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
Uh all right, I think Roger could probably develop a
whole new comedy routine on your interactions.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
You're already big into crowd work as it is roj.
I mean, what crowd work could there possibly be than
a speed dating event with Trey.

Speaker 5 (07:24):
I just want to I just want to get the
parking situations sorted out and then just watch Trey lose
his patients.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
That's all I want to see. That'll make my night well.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
And maybe that that would be the good thing about
speed dating for you, Trey, is that there wouldn't be
the opportunity to necessarily lose your patients unless someone's just
really awful right off the you know, the top.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
You know.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
It's the funny thing, is I after again? Why I said,
you know, I should have gotten there right on time,
because you know, everyone kind of square it off and
we're talking. So I do understand the advantage of speeddating
is that everyone has to rotate around.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Yeah, because since you showed up thirty minutes late to
this dating event, all the good ones were taken already.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Something like that.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Hm, so you unintentionally put yourself at the nerd table.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
You've got the dayshift people.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
It was a thirty five plus event, but since Trey
walked in thirty minutes late, he got all the forty
five's in up.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
Everybody else went to bed.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
Here's the thing, Tray, I know you're a silver fox,
but if you want to get the gold, you need
to show up on time.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Next time, I will absolutely show up on time because
and I think God bless him thirty five plus I
think everyone showed up on time, knowing that everyone wanted
to be in bed by ten o'clock.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Did anyone stay after the allotted time?

Speaker 3 (08:53):
I left it nine oh five? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
I think that's called sweep dating.

he met on his dating Adventure night. So there's always
more to the Treehouse that you can get when you subscribe.
What was the best thing? We're going to move on
to what I think is possibly the best headline I
have seen all month. Before we get to that, I
need to ask one major question though, about your dating

(10:41):
event that you attended, Trey, What was the best thing
about it that I went.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
That I actually I got the nerve up to go
because I was I don't know why, I really I
got in my own head and I was I was
to Dan to give you a level of nerves that
I somehow conjured up the last time. I kind of
remember feeling this nervous. There were two events, both of

(11:13):
them you were there and was dancing at Lebert.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
That was the one I had my finger up on, like, okay,
I know that's one of them. Had with the time
we danced at Labert for charity, not because we were desperate.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
And then doing that stupid song at the White Trash
Party or whatever. The one thousand miles so and it
was nothing to be afraid of. I just I got
in my own head. But like I said, it was
I have been a I've been sober for you know,

(11:50):
nine years as of yesterday.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
I feel like you deserves more than a golf clap,
but I don't. Yeah, it's it's all a marble right now.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
And even in sobriety, I've been on the working side
of the bar, which kind of gives you an advantage
of you're talking to people whatever. So it was really
the first time in a very long time I had
been on the customer side of the bar sober. But
everything was cool. Shockingly, I did not get asked one

(12:22):
time about I mean, I just I got a topa
Chico and a glass. I don't know really anyone could
tell any difference between a drink or not, although they
served them in different cups now that I think about it.
But anyways, it was fun. I definitely it gave me
a relax relax. I I'll be able to not only

(12:44):
do that again, but then it just probably go out
more and meet people kind of it's kind of putting
me back out in the wild.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
So that's awesome. Yeah, it makes sense because now that
you've done it. That fear has now been removed. The
mystery is now gone. You know what to expect, and
that can be one of the hardest things to do. Like,
my wife is really weird when it comes to stuff
like that. If we're walking into a new restaurant or
some new place of any type, she doesn't like to

(13:11):
be the first person through the door. She wants me
to do it. I'm self conscious about that because then
I look like a Chauvener's prick when I do that,
and I'm worried about people thinking that I'm a jerk
making her, you know, come in second. That's like, no,
she's just weird. So it's a similar thing. Now that
you've gone in, you know what's gonna happen the next time,
and you'll be more relaxed and maybe you'll walk out

(13:34):
with a lady next time.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Also, I'll definitely get there on time, so uh yeah,
can of get first first DIBs on people? Because because
there that's it. There were there were some women there
that we were smoke shows. I mean they were hot.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
So and it's great for you because you know, if
a chick is that hot, but she's at a dating event,
she's got a level of crazy in her that you love.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
Well, that's the other thing I think when you're at
an over thirty five, and like I said, predominantly it
was probably forties and early fifties, you know everyone's broken.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
Yeah, which honestly, I think is where you operate best.
Oh yeah, because like she's she's gonna be a little
bit broken, and she's probably gonna be a little bit
crazy because she is still single, so there's probably something
a little off about her, and that would and that's
probably the reason why no one's locked her down just yet.
But that's where you walk in. You're coming into your era, Tray.

(14:38):
This is the trendhome era. This is tray season. I
can't wait to see what you do in this era.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
I mean, from now on, I'm gonna be walking in
there and see a bunch of broken, broken women and going,
I'm mother Picasso. Let's go.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
I'm broken, but I'm not broke, lady.

Speaker 3 (15:06):
I'll put you back together.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
I've got some gorilla glue in the car. Let's go.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
With that line.

Speaker 6 (15:22):
You're listening to The Treehouse.

Speaker 7 (15:25):
Visit us online at Treehouse on air dot com.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
All Right, we didn't get to it. Best headline, Best
headline coming up.

Speaker 4 (15:32):
Stay there, You're in the Treehouse.

Speaker 8 (15:45):
Visit us online at Treehouse on air dot com.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Best headline, Best headline. This is the headline I saw
this morning, and when I saw it, I read it
once and uh did like a spit take slash snort
on my coffee, Okay, which is really hard to do
all at the same time. But when you're getting over
a chest cold and congestion, weird things happen. Your body
starts to revolt and instead of just a normal spit

(16:14):
take that you spit out the liquid, it also gets
trapped in your sinuses, so then he just looks like
a weird black coffee sludge thing coming out of the
holes in my face. Anyway, here we go without further ado.
F fifteen right along passenger accidentally ejected while on the ground.

(16:44):
Had it not been for your crazy date night Antis Tray,
this would have been the story we started with and
we may have ended with on this show. F fifteen
right along Passenger accidentally ejected while on the ground.

Speaker 5 (17:04):
That's the worst Goose reenactment ever.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
Oh, I have so many questions.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
I know, man, I know, and I have absolutely zero answers.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
The parachute shouldn't even deploy.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
I haven't been able to get past the headline to
actually read any of the content of the story itself.
I just I'm just lost in the beauty and the
romance and the visual in my head of F fifteen
ride along passenger accidentally ejected while on the ground.

Speaker 3 (17:38):
I'm just trying, like I'm gonna guess an F fifteen
probably you know, it's probably a two hundred million dollar plane,
and you know they can't afford a post it note
that says do not touch.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
Or a button that says start engineer.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
I would like to think, let's let's keep this in mind.
I would like to think that if this jet is
two hundred million dollars, that it has a remote start
and it has a disable eject for the for the
ride along passenger in the back.

Speaker 5 (18:14):
This is the worst make a wish ever, all Right, So.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
I'd honestly like to think that we don't take civilians
in F fifteen's, And that's what I would like to think.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
I remember going to an air show as a child
and they wouldn't let me take photos of a cockpit
of an F sixteen. And this was at the Fort
Worth Air Show, you know, years and years and years ago.
I was like, I don't know, eleven years old, and
they'll let you look at it, but no pictures. And

(18:51):
keeping in mind that was a stripped down model. It's
not like this, like this F sixteen that they had
at the air show. This is the one that they
just roll out to let the kids crawl on. This
thing wasn't going to the Gulf War kind of a thing,
you know.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
Uh, yeah, they still I mean our they say the
military is twenty years ahead of civilian technology, and so
even even a strip down that's still you know, a
second or third generation that you know, there are other
countries that fight for that.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Yeah, no, you're right. That jet after after the Fort
Worth Air Show was probably sent to the Latvian Air
Force to actually use.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
That went to Ukraine's.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Along with along with all those Buffalo Bills, Super Bowl
Champion T.

Speaker 5 (19:36):
Shirts and a few of the kids that were crawling
around on it. Yeah, sure, why not sending them as well?

Speaker 1 (19:44):
All right, So this is going to be the first
time I've actually read any of the actual story, okay,
because I keep getting caught up with the headline F
fifteen right along. Passenger accidentally ejected while on the ground. Okay,
here we go. Oh, this is an updated version too.
Like the new headline actually reads F fifteen right along

(20:06):
passenger accidentally ejects while on the ground. Updated who A
backseat passenger and an F fifteen D Eagle belonging to
the one hundred and fourth fighter wing appears to have
accidentally ejected from the aircraft while it was on the
ground at Barnes Air National Guard Base in Westfield, Massachusetts.

(20:28):
An updated video.

Speaker 3 (20:32):
Oh, there's video of this.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
This is how good of a headline it is. I
didn't even know there was video to this. An updated
video posted on social media shows the aftermath of the incident. Oh,
just the aftermath. A puff of smoke is seen wafting
from the back seat as the F fifteen is still taxiing.
The canopy, having been blown off during the ejection sequence,
is lying on the Eagle's left wing. The passenger appears

(21:02):
to be crawling next to the runway near what looks
like a parachute as the F fifteen continues to roll by.
Just look it up at the pilot, Hey a little help?
You signed the waiver shortest flight ever for you.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
Bro, Iron Eagle sequel grounded.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
Finally get Iron Eagle four and he hit the eject
button before shooting. Oh my god, this is fantastic.

Speaker 2 (21:41):
Oh can we see Do we get to see the video?

Speaker 1 (21:44):
Uh? Yeah, give me a second here. A near zero
zero no speed or altitude. That's so zero zero means
no speed or altitude. A near zero zero injection has
its own added dangers. But it's not the first time
someone on a ride along has inadvertently punched out of
a tactical jet. There needs to be some safety barriers

(22:10):
in place if the ride along passengers keep ejecting themselves
from the jets.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
When they're doing the little training video or whatever it is.

Speaker 5 (22:20):
At the end, they're like, and please, as a final note,
don't eject yourself.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
You know, I know those handles that say eject, don't
touch those, well.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
And that's what I'm curious. You kind of assume at
some point they've updated the means of ejection because in
the old ones, like in Top Gun, they had those
levers up above. Yeah, do people think those are os
handles and they just start grabbing them?

Speaker 1 (22:42):
You know, they might, they might. It is sort of
an attractive nuisance. At that point, it looks like a handle.
Therefore I should grab it. It looks like a grab bar. No, no,
that's not a grab bar. Here's what they need to do.
They need to take the ride along eject handles and
cut them. Just cut him out, Just remove the temptation.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
For a premature rejection, because.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
Clearly there's a problem here. These ride along passengers are
getting way too excited and they're prematurely ejecting.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
That's a weird support group to belong to him.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
I'm Dave, and I'm a premature rejector.

Speaker 4 (23:25):
Hi, Dave.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
Everybody's still wearing the parachute exactly.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
That's just what I was thinking. Everyone's in a circle.
They still got the parachutes on the flight suits and everything. Yeah,
it's a total embarrassment.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
I just want to see this video.

Speaker 5 (23:44):
I'll look it up because I'm gonna lose my stuff,
I could promise you.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
All right, hang on, let me see how I can
pull this up for us. Give me just a second.
All right, here it is fifteen right along passenger accidentally ejects. Okay,
let's see we I don't know if there's so many
audio to this ball. Here we go. Well, there's music

(24:12):
to it, so they're just showing it after the guy's
ejected and the jet is rolling around with no canopy
and no back seat passenger.

Speaker 3 (24:21):
And the pilot just here just hanging his head.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
Along you've been flying today?

Speaker 1 (24:30):
That does suck. It's like, of all the jobs in
the air force and you get stuck with the one
that you've got to You got to bring along the
the makeup wishes, and.

Speaker 5 (24:39):
It's been you know, this day and age. Everything gets recorded,
so now he'll never let this down.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, oh, there it is. I see the canopy on
the back of the jet. There here, we look right there.
Just it's like it's like it just flipped up and back.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
There's the passenger there.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
Looking a little disoriented.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yeah, it's bad enough. I mean, you're not top gun.
You're like cap gun.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
You're naked gun. At this point.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
Looking around.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
What happened?

Speaker 1 (25:21):
I was just in the jet and now I'm now
I'm on the tarmac, Like did we fly all gassed up?

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (25:34):
All gassed up and no place to go.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
Now that pilot's going God, even the coast guard is
gonna make fun of me.

Give us a follow today us wait speaking of today?
Oh wait, no, it's not time for birthdays yet. Got

(26:28):
one more segment then we'll do birthdays. Uh for now, Trey,
I know this is music to your ears. This is
music to anybody's ears. You were right the other day
when you first told us about your dating event that
you were scared to go on. You were reminding us
how this is the first big thing that you were

(26:49):
having to do sober that in the past you weren't
sober to do. Because there's one thing that is tried
and true that alcohol can do for the human and
that is give us liquid courage. You had to go
to this thirty five and updating event sober, which in

(27:10):
general terms means you had to row dog this dating event,
and I applaud you for having done it sober. Where
you were right comes into play. Is this taking shots
before a first date increases success rate by sixty percent.

(27:31):
Science is backing you up, Trey. It's always a good
feeling to know that a long held belief isn't just
a thought, it isn't just an opinion. It is scientifically
backed research. And that's what you have now. A new
study indicates that having a small drink before a first

(27:53):
date could increase your chances of making a good impression
by up to sixty percent. That's good numbers. Researchers link
this effect to reduced social anxiety and a boost in confidence,
which can help conversations feel more natural. In moderation, alcohol
can slightly lower inhibitions, making people more open, relaxed, and expressive.

(28:15):
Experts do caution, however, that balance is crucial. Too much
can quickly backfire, leading to slurred speech, impaired judgment, and
sending unintended signals, undoing any initial advantage. So just keep
that in mind. Don't overdo it just a little bit.
I'll do it unless you're trade, which you're sober, and

(28:37):
there's no such thing as just a little bit, so Trey,
you were right. Liquid courage is real. Yeah, it's very good.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
I did not need a scientific study to tell me
that one Yeah, and that helps not only the first part,
but even more importantly the latter part of Yeah, one
shot good, five shots.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Bad, six shots spring break, which is in its own
way a dating event, but no one's going to judge
you negatively. Six shots and dancing on a table at
spring break, you do it on a rooftop on Lower
Greenville at a thirty five and updating event. You're gonna
get some side eye and a dislocated hip, but you

(29:31):
won't feel it till tomorrow. Did anyone embarrass themselves at
your at the dating event, Trey or just you by
showing up thirty minutes late?

Speaker 3 (29:45):
Like I said, in the normal, if someone tells you
a party is from seven thirty to nine thirty, what
time are you going to show up about eight eight?

Speaker 2 (29:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (29:54):
I mean that's but no, no, no one embarrassed themselves,
and uh yeah, it was a very that in that way.
It was very much a thirty five plus event. Everyone
was having a good time, a few drinks, but I
think everyone wanted to be in bed by ten.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
Yeah, everyone still had time to get home and watch
a little Netflix before bed.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
Yeah. How many people asked what time the kitchen closed.
I got to eat something.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
They had had really nice food going around and so
oh okay, yeah.

Speaker 5 (30:27):
A little appetizers and some drinks. Was was that all
included in the ticket price? No, but they were running
a special that there there was no ticket price.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
It was free. You just you just had to sign
up and and to get the ticket. And from what
I saw, I looked at the menu, I mean like
I got I bought a top of Chico and it
was four dollars and uh, but most of the drinks
were they were doing a special, so I would say
everything drinks and food they had like meatballs and some

(30:59):
little pizzas and some other things. Uh, we're in the
eight to ten dollars range.

Speaker 1 (31:03):
So did they have a did they have a specialty
theme cocktail like the Lonely Hearts drink or anything like that.

Speaker 3 (31:11):
They had some some specialty cocktails. I don't know that
any of them were.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
Or like the one lady you told us about that
you spoke to something with bitters, bitters and boobs. That's
the next event right there.

right here inside the Treehouse Show. Today is Monday, August eighteenth,
twenty twenty five. Let's celebrate today with some birthdays. Although

(32:45):
unfortunately we have to mention a couple of birthdays that
aren't celebrating them anymore, but we're just kind of mentioning
them in memorial. Malcolm Jamal Warner would have been fifty
five today. He unfortunately drowned a couple of weeks ago.

(33:06):
Couldn't have you know, couldn't have happened to Cosby, couldn't
let him go on a prison swim or anything. Instead,
THEO gets it, so unfortunate, but happy, happy.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
You're trying to save his son. Was he trying to
save his son?

Speaker 5 (33:23):
Is not?

Speaker 1 (33:23):
What was that was an initial story I think was
his daughter, but then they said it wasn't related to that.
He just got pulled into a really nasty rip current
and couldn't get out. Okay, So yeah, so Malcolm Jamal
Warner would have been fifty five today, but that didn't
quite happen. And another in memoriam birthday, And I still

(33:44):
remember where I was for this one because this one
was really surprising. Back in two thousand and nine, Patrick
Swayze died and today is his birthday. Why are you
making that face, Tray, Why do you think that was
a surprise because at the time, I don't remember knowing
he had cancer.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
He had pancreatic cancer.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
Yeah, oh, I guess we did know that.

Speaker 3 (34:07):
Yeah, he had had multiple surgeries, and I mean he
had made it longer than like he was in the
top one percentile of survival rates, because I think he
had made it like four years.

Speaker 5 (34:19):
Yeah, but I think they just released his picture of
what he was like on the couch or whatever, and
he with no hair and real skinny and gaunt and
all that and it doesn't even look anything like he
used to look like.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
So that was that's a sad one right there.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yeah, I guess I guess I had forgotten that, that
we knew that in advance. I mean, my brain obviously
plays tricks on me all the time. So but I
do remember when the news came out, it's like, okay,
Patrick Swayze died, and again that was two thousand and nine.
I was on the air. I was on the air
at one o five three the fan with my old

(34:54):
Palean Salisbury as he was a scream replying to the
text thing for people saying he suck. Patrick Swayze passed
away in two thousand and nine, And was it.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
The same day.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
As Patrick Swayzee, or maybe it was Michael Jackson's death,
which was also two thousand and nine that Farah Fawcett
passed away from Anald Michael Jackson.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Yeah, that was Michael Jackson.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
Yeah, she like literally probably within an hour hour and
a half of her death, and they Michael Jackson, they
started the other reports of and everyone kind of forgot
about her death, right.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
So anyway, a couple of in memoriam birthdays today now
let's go to the living folk. Andy Samberg is forty
seven today from Brooklyn nine nine Saturday Night Live The
Lonely Island, which, by the way, if you have never
played the Lonely Island hit I'm on a Boat while
you're on a boat, then you haven't lived. If for

(35:56):
no other reason just to see the captain and crew
react to it, I did that for my fortieth It
was great. Charter a boat, go to the British Virgin Islands,
celebrate the fortieth birthday in international waters, and the first
song we play is I'm on a Boat. I didn't

(36:18):
realize though, that the captain and first mate were father
and daughter. Oh gosh, look, And I told him we're
not that crazy. I just wanted to do it, and
they're like, no, it's cool, Like all right.

Speaker 3 (36:31):
Anyway, I would never have guessed he was that old.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Yea, yeah, yeah, forty seven. Yeah, it does look really
really good. Caitlyn Olsen is fifty today. Caitlyn Olsen is fifty.
SE's Sweet da On It's always Sonny in Philadelphia, Mickey
on the Fox series The Mick, and of course that
has her married to Rob mclahinney. So Caitlyn Olsen fifty
years old today, and I don't think any relation to

(36:59):
the Olsen and the other Olsen's. I believe Edward Norton
is fifty six today. Edward Norton is fifty six. People
forget that he was a Hulk at one point.

Speaker 5 (37:13):
Yeah, and the reason he's not anymore is because he's
so hard to work with and he's not a nice person.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
So good job you managed to piss off an entire
movie studio. And he had it made. Man, he had
it made, he would have been the He'd still be
the Hulk today if he wasn't a big green jerk.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
I guess. I know. Again goes to the name dropping thing.

Speaker 5 (37:37):
But I was at the Roosevelt Hotel one time, I mean,
nobuddy mine for lunch and they were having auditions for
whatever movie he was I don't know what, but that's
where I met Scott conn And because here's how I
met him. He throws open the door and he goes,
I can't work with this a hole, and there's Edward
Norton sitting in a chair, and so he came to

(38:00):
the bar immediately started drinking.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
I was like, yeah, we'll be friends, we'll chat it up, and.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
That pretty much is verified. I mean, it's like he
would be in the Avengers movies. But the long held
rumor that has pretty much just been verified is that
he was just difficult to work with. Yeah, Christian Slater
is fifty six years old today. He, I guess lately,

(38:26):
is best known as Edward Alderson on the show Mister Robot.
Then he had kind of a dark period of not
a whole lot going on before that, which prior to that,
he was having a hell of a career.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
But wasn't a domestic violence thing that happens.

Speaker 4 (38:44):
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
I just think his.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Career just hit a bit of a lull, and it
probably didn't help that he was in Kevin Costner's Robin
Hood movie.

Speaker 3 (38:56):
Well, I think he was like all the the late eighties,
you know that group, the i'll call it the brat
Pack for about it, lack of a better word, all
their creators kind of took a lull. But I always
loved to it. Cuffs is a stupid, but it's it's
a I love that movie.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
That is that is that is an all time favorite
for me. I don't I don't think it's necessarily on
my top five or top ten movies of all time,
but that one that was that's look if I'm a
radio guy and I should say that Pump Up the
Volume is my favorite Christian Slater film, just for the
radio tie in. But the movie Cuffs is fantastic. It's hysterical,

(39:32):
it's touching, and it's hysterical.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
If well, I'll tell you if you were if I
were to give a list of or think about a
list of movies where they break the fourth wall and
do it, well, that would be on a top ten list.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Absolutely. It's basically Deadpool number one, and then Cuffs would
be in there. But uh, raj, have you heard of
the movie Cuffs starring Christian Slater.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
I have not watch it. K U F F S.

Speaker 4 (39:58):
Cuffs.

Speaker 5 (39:59):
Yes, but he was charged with third degree sexual assault.
Oh it was later dropped because of lack of evidence.
But he drunk driving, drug possession, and multiple assault charges.

Speaker 2 (40:10):
Whoop, yep, that's what. That's where that little lull happened.

Speaker 3 (40:15):
Yeah, that batt'll uh that'll do.

Speaker 2 (40:17):
He was worn different cuffs. That's right.

Speaker 6 (40:26):

sixth birthday and wondering where that lull came in his

(41:13):
career and why there was a lull, and Raj is
digging up the rap sheet on mister Slater and discovering
we think we found the cause of the lull.

Speaker 2 (41:22):
Yeah, he's kind of my spirit animal.

Speaker 5 (41:26):
Nineteen eighty nine arrested for drug driving and leading police
on a car chase followed by kicking an arresting officer.
Oh nineteen ninety four, arrested for attemption to board of
playing with a loaded gun.

Speaker 2 (41:37):
Nineteen ninety seven arrested.

Speaker 5 (41:39):
Up for an altercational party were altercation at a party
where he allegedly bit a man and then attacked police officers.
And then nineteen ninety seven it was under the influence
of alcohol, heroin and cocaine he assaulted his girlfriend, bit
a man again and then attacked police officers.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
I had no idea Christian Slater was such a apparently,
so no wonder he had such a dark spot in
his career. Everyone's like, well, you know, he's a bier. Okay, well,
let's just go with somebody else. Then, let's just get
one of the Phoenixes.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
Let's get Tom Cruise. We'll go with Cruise and Cruise
doesn't bite.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
Yeah, like, you know, we just came off of working
with Ed Norton, who's a huge jerk. We can't have
a bier in here too.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
Sorry, Yeah, he likes to bite people, apparently.

Speaker 1 (42:24):
I wonder if Hollywood casting agents have certain notes on
certain actors like that, like the stuff that's not on
the resume, it's the other things, you know. It's like, okay,
Christian Slater really good looking, pretty talented, but he's a
bit Ooh okay, I don't.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Know, but this one, this one is my favorite though.

Speaker 5 (42:41):
In two thousand and four, he was reportedly kicked out
of a London strip club for refusing to take off
his Richard Nixon max mask.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
Sorry he was wearing to just walked into a strip
club with a Richard Nixon mask.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
Do you know what though, considering his storied history, at
least he didn't bite any of the dancers. But see,
maybe that's why he had the mask.

Speaker 2 (43:11):
You can't bite through the mask, that's right.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
No, this is where you know, we celebrated Heath Ledger
as this great actor, but you know he was so
dark after The Joker. Clearly Christian Slater just got really
into the role. He had an interview with a vampire
and just couldn't shake it.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
He's method for all things Treehouse. Go to Treehouse on
