Speaker 1 (00:17):
It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Mallley, along with
Trey Trendholm and Raj Sharma. It used to be that
a sign of fall is when Starbucks shifts into fall
(00:39):
drink mode, which the last few years has actually started
in August. But right now it seems like the first
indicator of a changing season, even though it's not. Is
my annual head cold? Yeah, I don't think you can
necessarily hear it in my voice yet, but my wife
(01:01):
heard it in my snoring last night. So while I
can actually breathe through my nose, I can feel it
in the back of my throat. I can feel it
building inside my head. And I'm not the only one.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I have a cold as well.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
This is one of the few times that Trey is
not the sick one.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Yeah, especially when it comes to sinus and allergy stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, well, I look at it this way. It could
be way, way worse. We could have gone on vacation
and had a wild bat fly into our mouths. Okay, yeah,
aren't you glad you aren't this lady? A woman on
vacation wound up with over twenty thousand dollars in medical
(01:52):
bills after a bat flew into her mouth. Wow, I
realized this is a story about a woman on vacation
and a bat flies into her mouth. But this story
has a larger picture, and that is the state of
our medical insurance situation. So a little more info here.
(02:16):
A woman on vacation whose employer sponsored health plan had
lapsed after recently being laid off wound up with over
twenty thousand dollars in medical bills after a bat flew
into her mouth. Erica Khan was visiting Glenn Canyon National
Recreation Area in Arizona last August when the horrific encounter
with the winged mammal took place. The former biomedical engineer
(02:44):
noticed a number of bats flying around while she was
outside taking pictures of the night sky, but didn't think
much of it. That is until one got too close
for comfort, winding up trapped between her camera and her face.
When she screamed in terror, sorry a little laugh, an
(03:05):
unknown part of the bat wound up in her mouth
for a few seconds. I love this story unknown part
of the bat, but I think we all know what
part we want.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
It to be.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah, I don't I don't think they wanted to say, and.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Might might explain the source of infection. Anyway. Her father,
a physician who had been traveling with her, loved that sentence.
Who had been traveling with her until the bat queen
flew into his daughter's mouth, and that's when he's like,
that's it, I'm no more traveling with you, said she
(03:51):
should immediately start a course of Rabi's treatments, even though
she wasn't sure if she had been bitten. I like
to think I would know if a bat bit.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Me when I think that's just the protocols to do
RABY shots.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Right, I guess, But I mean if it didn't actually
bite you, I mean, what's It's just you just came
in contact with it. Although it sounds like she did
come in close contact with the bat.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Sounds like she bit the bat.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Ooh, sounds like it.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Actually.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I know we're all missing Aussie, but that's a little ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
There are other ways to pay your respects. She quickly
went online to purchase a medical insurance plan before going
to a hospital and flagstaff to begin treatments, under the
impression it would cover her two week course of RABY shots,
which she received at clinics in Arizona, Massachusetts, and Colorado.
But her biggest shock came when the bill arrived, showing
she owed twenty thousand, seven hundred and forty nine dollars
(04:50):
between the four facilities for treatment, including four doses of
the rabies vaccines and three shots of immunogloblin to increase
antibodies against the virus, which is fatal if left untreated.
She didn't realize the insurance plan she had purchased a
day before starting treatment required a thirty day waiting period
before coverage would kick in. An explanation of benefits letter
(05:13):
she got in the mail grimly explained. She says that
I thought it must have been a mistake, but I
guess I was naive. Yeah. After being laid off from
her engineer position the previous month, she opted against keeping
her insurance under Cobra for six hundred and fifty dollars
a month, rolling the dice that she would not wind
up facing an unexpected medical emergency. This is another shocking
(05:36):
angle to this story. The fact that she could have
had Cobra for six hundred and fifty dollars a month
is astounding because when I was in that exact position
almost three years ago. It was not six fifty a month.
It was like nineteen hundred dollars, to which I said, no,
(05:57):
I'm good, I'll just go cash patient if something bad
does happen.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Okay, Yeah, soifty a month, that is uh, shockingly low
for cobra.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yeah, I don't know what cobra is.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Cobra is a temporary healthcare. It basically when you get
laid off or fired from a job and you have healthcare,
it's kind of a technically it's government subsidized, but you
pay out the ass for it, but they they by law,
have to continue covering you, I want to say, for
six months if but you have to pay it's you're
basically paying what you were paying plus what the employer
(06:34):
contributions were.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
So uh like, it is freakishly expensive.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
The last time I dealt with cobra was when we
got laid off from CBS at the end of two
thousand and eight, so the first part of two thousand
and nine. And I think my Cobra then was like
seventy seventy five like, and that's such seventeen years ago.
And that was before the Affordable Care Act and everything,
(07:02):
and you know, completely changing. Uh so, yeah, that's that
is shocking.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Yeah, so cobra is an option, but it is in
no way a good option when it comes to extending
the health benefits you had at your previous job. It
basically is just telling you, Okay, you can keep this,
but it's going to be so expensive at a time
when you can't afford to be spending shocking amounts of
money on really anything, that you really do wind up thinking,
(07:31):
you know, it's probably better off that I just try
to find something else like Affordable Care Act options or
just go cash patient and hope that I don't catch
anything between now and the next job.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Well, and a lot of times it's the realization of
what healthcare actually cost and what the employer contribution is
on those things.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, and it's also an important reminder that if you're
around many many bats, keep your mouth shut.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Solid advice. I mean, the more you know.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I'm here to help, I am. I am a I
am a one man public service announcement. When you're around fats,
keep your mouth shut.
Speaker 3 (08:18):

know where your children are?

three Cook DFW or the website Cook dfw dot com.
I had intended to talk about one thing. I am
now slightly distracted about the possibility of bat and mouth
disease being a thing, so I'm going to keep my
(11:12):
mouth shut as much as possible at dusk. But I
got distracted by a third thing because during that break
I look I look up at Trey, and Trey looks
like he's in the middle of trying to book a flight.
Not because I could see, and it's not that I
could see the words of destinations or things. It's because
(11:33):
I saw a distinctive yellow heading on the top part
of his phone, which I know to be the Spirit
Airlines website on a phone, Trey, is there something you
need to tell us? Uh?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
No, I've got a work trip that I was booking,
got to go to Vegas, and uh. I was exploring
my options. And as I have said before, I really
have never had a bad experience on Spirit. And you
know what, you can book the basically Spirit first Class,
which is those comfy seats and everything else, and uh,
(12:09):
it was a good price.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
So I remember I had to school Fox four's consumer
reporter Steve Noviello on this exact thing a handful of
years ago, because I was in the middle of booking
a flight to Saint Thomas, and Steve was like, you're
going Spirit, Come on, dude, fork off the money, go
take a nicer airline. And I said, well, hang on here,
(12:32):
snobby Mick Snoberson, and I proceeded to tell him that
for that particular leg going from Dallas to Saint Thomas,
Spirit Airlines had the best track record. Is it the
most comfortable seat? Hell no, but it got me there
way better than American ever did and any others. So
that was the one place that I would do it.
(12:52):
And I told him same thing that you're saying right now, Trey.
I can book the big front seat on Spirit Airlines
for the same or maybe cheaper than I can economy
on American. Yeah, and and then things aren't so bad.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
No, I can basically, you know, Southwest is the easiest
for me just because I live right by love Field,
But yeah, if I cannot be squished and for basically
the same price, fly Spirit and get one of those big,
comfy upfront seats. I'll take it.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And now they've changed those big front seats to where
you're buying a package, so you're not just buying the
seat like it used to be. You buy the seat,
and then if you want to drink some stuff, you
got to pay for that as well. But now that
big front seat is its own package. So you get
the seat and you get free drinks and snacks and luggage, yes,
and a free checked bag. And I think they even
(13:59):
let you punch a flight crew member as well. That's
a great package. Look, Spirit is aware of their of
their of their customer base, so they'll give you one
free smack after that. Then you know, FAA regulations kick it.
But if you're flying coach in Spirit, you can't hit
the flight crew. Sorry, you gotta pay for the privilege.
(14:27):
Which is interesting because then because then depending on the flight,
you may because sometimes they'll offer you things mid flight,
you know, to maybe if you want to upgrade, So
maybe that would be an interesting thing. It's like, oh,
you're flying coach, but say one of the flight attendants
really pissed you off, you can just ask the other
one and be like, hey, how much to upgrade for
punch a flight attendant. How much is that because I
like to take advantage of that right now.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Yeah, but you got to jump on that early because
like everything with Spirit, it's a limited quantity, so not
everyone is eligible for that upgrade.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
That's right. You better hurry up because there's this, there's this.
There's this shady looking guy in big front seat number too,
that's looking real punchy.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Now I think it comes. I think it comes complimentary
with the big front seat.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Well, yeah it does, but yeah, you're right, the person
sitting behind the big front maybe it's.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Just starting to remind me of that scene from Airplane
for News. I'll just wind up to just smack that.
Speaker 8 (15:17):
Yeah, now it's attention ladies from gentlemen. Well, the flight
time today will be about one hour and fifty six minutes,
or the cruising off to two to thirty six thousand feet.
The punch of flight attended part of the flight will
kick in in about thirty minutes. That'll be after I
turn off the.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Seat belt sign. So wait until that seat belt sign
turns off.
Speaker 8 (15:34):
As soon as that's off, then you can assume your
spot's in line mid AFT.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I like how you the beatdown starts after drink service.
I can get my cocktails in and starting.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Well, not like that, because then you got because then
you got it, because as they're taking the cart down
the aisle, you got to hit a few people to
drum up more sales for people wanting to hit you afterwards. Which,
by the way, if you've never been hit by the
service cart, oh my god, that hurts.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Yes I have.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
It's brutal and they don't do anything about it.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
No, there are no apologies. That's on you. Yep, stop
man spreading. That has a hard lesson to learn man literally.
Oh anyway, so when do you fly in Spirit Trey.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
A couple of weeks. I gotta go to Vegas for
a fashion trade show.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Oh yeah, you know what, Flying Spirit. Flying Spirit will
give you excellent research in fashion leading up to the event.
It's like the upside down of Milan Runway.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I was gonna say, if it was a cargo short convention, Yes,
experience perfect.

(18:05):
recently and I need to take issue with it and
you because it is really really troubling the content of
this particular post and I feel the need to address
it here on the show. Okay, I don't know who
this individual is or where you found this song, but
you you posted it with the caption when you want
(18:26):
to get your person in the mood, and this is
the song that plays with a young African American man
dancing and apparently courting a young lady.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
It's something about your.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Line.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
Ah, it's well, oh you'll get me one to tell
the dress not better?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Oh yeah. Two questions, number one, what is wrong with you?
And and number two is this that frapper guy from Africa?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
That guy's not dad, he's mute?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Sorry? Sorry?
Speaker 9 (19:09):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
That was my first question because if it is, then
I can't say all the other things that are in
my head. But if it's not, then it's free rain
on this Dude's musical abilities.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
It is not. It's ice jfish, I think, is what
he goes by, or ice JJ fish something like that.
We all have our rabbit holes that we kind of
get sucked into, and mine happens to be really, really
bad singing.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
So well, congratulations, Yeah, you clearly reached the end of
the internet.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Yeah you went. You went headfirst into that rabbit hole
and you went all the way to the end.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Because the beat was like when I started listening to it,
people were like making fun of him, and I was like, hey,
it's a young kid, you know, he's probably starting out.
The beat was really good, right, and I was like, okay,
that's it's a solid beat. And then the singing started
and I was like, oh, this is going on, this
is going on the ground all.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Right, let me let me let me listen to it again.
See if I can separate the singing from the actual
beat here, right, Okay, I can't. I cannot separate those
vocals from that music. I can't. I can't do it.
They're one of the same.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
The beats started off pretty dope, and then and then
I don't know where they get the money to do this, Like,
where do you get enough money? And time and how
you hire models and stuff like this, and producers and
how no producer said anything to him while he was
recording the tracks.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
You know what, some even even producers got to make
rent on those studios. They'll let you want to come
in and do a birthday thing. Sure, yeah, give me
my money up front and I'll I'll mix it for
you a bit.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Who this guy watched some YouTube videos and produced himself.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
But I think he has a whole album out, So
just be prepared for in the future more ice jjfish. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I think we're ready for a series. And you're right
because the girls that are in this video, I don't
think he knows them because if he did, or and
they knew him and they heard the song, I don't
think they would have agreed to be in this video.
I think he had to go out and find them,
or perhaps he is trafficking them and this is how
(21:35):
they get their citizenship.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
That's how they get their passports back.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
If you want to go home wherever it as you're from,
you have to appear in my awful R and B
video and then I'll send you back.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
So I think we will start a series at least
once every two weeks we'll put up another ice jjfish song.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Oh yeah, and the name that's uh ice jj Fish
but an homage to ice Cube, Iced Tea, JJ Walker,
Lawrence Fishburn, I mean.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Please meet JJ Walker yea, and the album should be
called Dynamite but uh yeah, I mean I for for
you know, anytime you want to get the lady, you know,
kind of going throw this track down.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
And uh that's.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
World you will get me wanting to there's.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Not real quick How old is this song and video?
Because this guy is wearing an Affliction shirt and that'll
that has not been cool since like two thousand and four.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I'm pretty sure it's brand new.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
That's actually what's old is new again because Ed Hardy's
making a comeback, So don't rule out Affliction.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Oh yes it is. It's it's so terrible.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Okay. Then in that case, what's worse Ed Hardy and
Affliction coming back as cool again, or this guy's music
it's some.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Girl that's well, oh man.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I tell you what though he's uh he seems to
be going after Luke Brian's lime, Luke Brian's rhyming ability
because he's you know, rhyming girl and twirl mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah. I think ed Hardy's worse.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
I think they're synonymous. I mean I I think this
could be the theme song for their comeback.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
You know what, I guess you're right. And if you're
if you're this guy, you'll take any sponsor you can get.
And if skulls with roses in their teeth are cool again,
then by god, let this man eat.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I mean that that honestly. If you especially if you
didn't see the video and you just kind of heard
the song and you told me that was, you know,
something that Tommy Davidson Dinn did on in Living Color,
I'd been like, Okay.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Yeah, absolutely would have believed it.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
I did.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Like the guy in the comment section who had brought
up a great point, he said, I'm gonna tell my
kids this was Chris Brown. I'm in full support of that,
because f Chris Brown.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Come on, It's like if Quagmire was really injured. That's

Speaker 1 (26:07):
All right. It is Tuesday inside the Treehouse, and that
means it is time for Treehouse Talk Back. So here
we go. We are starting off today with our good
old pal or yeah, our good old pal, Robert Powell.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Right here we go.
Speaker 9 (26:25):
Hey, it's Robert the uh. The story about the Katie
trail dating thing was rather funny. But if you're gonna
do over fifty, then you would have to rename it
the Rascal round Up and uh and go for that,
(26:46):
and it would be the way Tko.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Rush. Were you here when Trey told us about the
Katie Trail round Up? No, Trey, would you inform him
please first?
Speaker 3 (26:57):
So it's the Daity Trail. Sorry, this girl she started
this thing, I don't know, three months ago, called it
the Daity Trail. And so they take places on you know,
on the KTI Trail or around it and have events where,
you know, for singles and and it just immediately exploded.
(27:18):
I mean I think by their second event they had
sold over seven hundred tickets. Wow. But on the fourteenth
they're doing an over thirty five Daity Trail Okay, and
you know it's I still feel like if fifty one
is probably too old, I have maybe seen a couple
(27:38):
of things that have given me a little hope that
it's not. But still I'm still investigating those Okay.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, because Trey was tempted to go, and I don't
blame you. I would be too. I mean, you don't
live far from the KD Trail and the idea of
meeting some new and interesting people makes sense. Get out
there and maybe you find at the very least, maybe
you make a new friend or maybe you spark a
whole new romance. And it's also an opportunity for you
(28:06):
to maybe find someone to date that's younger without being
too young. So like, the thirty five plus is pretty cool.
But and Raj, this is the part that I kind
of understand where Trey's coming from. They say thirty five plus,
but do they really mean thirty five to forty nine?
Because how many thirty seven year olds are going to
be like, you're fifty one? Yes, just what I'm healing for.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I'm just saying he looks good, he's he does I
wouldn't I wouldn't guess fifty one if I met Trey
for the first time.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
No, I think I think Trey could do the Daity
Trail thirty five plus program and say he's forty and
have no questions asked about the authenticity of it.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Rotten Roge, you can come along.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
I'm okay, you guys can be like Steve Martin and
Dan Akroy do wild and crazy guy is on the
Daty Trail.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
You know what, let's do it. That I think would
be hilarious. I just don't think you have the patience
for it. So that's what I want to see. I
just want to see you lose your crap.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
You know. That's a that's something that I know. It'll
be an absolute s show.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
So oh yeah, Trey's gonna get too hot, it's gonna
be too tiring, there's gonna be too many people. He
doesn't want to be around there, and he's got to
get back to the dog.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
So I'm not saying I'm staying a long time. I mean,
there is a good chance i'll even if even if
you come down to you know you, I'll Irish good buy.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
You, which is great. But the other problem you have
to worry about Trey is old man raj circling the
parking areas situation. Because Raj has told us if it
if it takes more than two laps to find a
parking spot, He's gone.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I'm out.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I will take off. I don't.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
That's what I'm talking about, patients.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
I can't do it.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
This is why it's so hard, this is why it's
so hard for men over over fifty to find people
to date. Because Raj only does two laps to find
a park spot and Trey is thinking of it as like, look,
you're gonna get like five ten minutes most because it's
August fourteenth and it's hot outside. And not that either
of you are wrong. I'm just saying that you that
you've built up standards, and not everyone else is going
to be as on board with them as you are.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
You know, I'm not. I won't even delude myself that
it's standards. I mean, I'm just the grumpy old man.
It's like, get off my.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Lawn, to get off my trail sign. But maybe you meet,
maybe you meet your your soulmate, and maybe you meet
a nice lady who's also holding this sign that says
get off my trail. Yeah, the land you come joined trails.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
The last time a white person yelled get off my trail,
it turned out terribly, many many tears.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Where's that.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
In the Treehouse?
Speaker 7 (31:04):
Listen to us online a Treehouse on Air dot com.
You're in the tree House. Listen us online at Treehouse
on Air dot com.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Oh man, This segment of the Treehouse is brought to
you by our YouTube channel. That's right, We're on YouTube.
Go to YouTube dot com slash at Treehouse on Air.
Checkout our channel there, or just go to YouTube and
search for the Treehouse Show and you can watch us
do all of this not too shabby. Today, by the way,
is Tuesday, August fifth, twenty twenty five. Let's celebrate today
(31:52):
with birthdays. Olivia Holpe is twenty eight today. Olivia holt
Is twenty eight. Is Tandy Bowen on Marvel's Cloak and Dagger.
That was a TV show that nobody watched. She was
also an abducted teenager named Katie Wallace on Cruel Summer.
There you go, so two things. I know, none of
us here inside the Treehouse I've seen, but you know
(32:13):
it's her birthday and good for her. Lolo Jones is
the Olympic runner Slash Bob's letter. She is forty three today.
I think she's the one that was the self professed virgin.
I don't know if she still is, or maybe there
was a horrific bobsledding accident and she's not now. I
(32:35):
don't know, but I think that's it.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
I don't know who that is.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
I I mean, I think trying. I think what Olympics
she really was in. It's been a minute.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Yeah, it's been a while. Well, let's not spend too
much time on Lolo Jones and her Olympics and her hymen.
Let's go to Jesse Williams, who is a doctor Jackson
ave Gray's anatomy. He is forty four. He's the one.
They gave a very powerful speech on speech on social
justice at the twenty sixteen be ET Awards and it
(33:09):
did absolutely no good. But it was a lovely speech,
had many, many nice thoughts, and nothing changed. Terry Clark
Country Singer is fifty seven. One of my favorite directors.
James Gunn is fifty nine. I am a James gunfanboy.
I'll admit it. I also will say it's not like
he's infallible, but he's one of my favorite directors right now.
(33:31):
James Gunn fifty nine. He's the writer director of the
Guardians of the Galaxy films, the New Superman movie, and Trey.
I know you watched and enjoyed this Peacemaker.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
Yeah, a new season of comes out I think in
a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Yeah, yeah, you get season two a Peacemaker in a
couple of weeks. He had a nice little cameo in
the New Superman movie.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Is that John Cena?
Speaker 1 (33:54):
Yeah, he's say whatever you think, but watch the show
before you make any judgments on his acting ability.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Yeah, Raj, I was so very skeptical of because I
did not think John Cena could do it. But this role,
the writing, everything, and the opening credits, the opening scene,
you gotta watch it. It is just it's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
And here's what's weird about the opening dance credits of
Peacemaker is it is, in fact so good. And James
Gunn came out and said he wanted to make sure
everyone watched the opening credits because he believed in the
work that everyone who's mentioned in those opening credits. He
wanted them to get that proper amount of notoriety and respect,
(34:46):
and he wanted people to see their names having associated
with the program. So he had them come up with
this crazy dance number, and it really is so good.
You watch it every single episode. But now that we're
getting a season two of Peacemaker, that means we're going
to get a whole new opening dance sequence, and I'm
almost as excited for that as I am the actual show.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
That's try it. I was kind of assuming they would
leave it the same, but you're right, they may do
it a new new opening number.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Yeah, because some of those characters aren't going to be
in this show because some of those characters died, although
some are still going to somehow come back in a way.
But I believe he said a few weeks ago. No,
there is a whole new opening sequence.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
I'm here for it.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Yeah, same here, Roger. You can look at his old
judge all you want. You're not going to steal me
in Trey's joy. Other birthdays today, Jonathan Silverman turns fifty nine.
He is the star of Weekend at Bernie's and Weekend
at Bernie's Two. He also had, actually he also had
the sitcom How I Was Forget what it was called?
(35:50):
Was it just called single? He just was? It was
a show. It was on around the time that Friends
was on. It was just like the tier, like the
state down from Friends as far as the show quality,
but it was it wasn't a bad show. Jonathan Silverman
been a fan of his since week Weekend at Bernie's Anyway.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Did you see Weekend at Bernie's two?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
That's a yes, That's why I did.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
That's a that's a stupid question. Raj Raj.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Not only not only did I see the film, but
I now live in the place where it takes place.
In the Islands. There is in fact a bar in
Red Hook on Saint Thomas called Bernie's with a mural
next to the bathrooms of Bernie from Weekend at Bernie's two. Okay, wow,
(36:42):
I know way too much about Weekend at Bernie's too.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
You're the only one.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
Yeah, Well, apparently I'm not, because there's a guy who
owns a bar that named it after it, and it's
not me. Shut up. If I owned that bar, it
would be American Ninja Bar. And if I ever own
a gym, it'll be called Jim. The signs on the
(37:14):
businesses may not say owned by Dan O'Malley, but there
will be other clue. How was what was the plot
from the first It was basically the same as the
first one. I mean really, it was just more of
(37:35):
a miracle on how Bernie didn't decompose in the time
from the first one to the second one.

Speaker 10 (38:31):
Hey guys, Maxwell here, and this is more of a
what you rather question for both Trey and Roge. So
if any of these two were to happen to YouTube,
would you rather have a movie marathon with Dan but
only he picks the bad movies that he likes and chooses,
Or would you rather have your house haunted by the
ghost of us Martin? Just adding a little bit of
(38:52):
a stupid that's on there. Anyways, Hope you guys are
having a good day, and of course.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Thank you Max for keeping the ooh alive inside Treehouse
talk back. There you have it there. It is one
of the most horrific Zambando questions we've ever heard on
this show. Would you rather sit through a movie marathon
where I picked the movies or be haunted by the
ghost of Russ Bart.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
I can't wait to see Jim Kata.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
I'll bring the snuggie and the popcorn.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
I know what I thought settle in Baby, It's gonna
be a wild ride.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Let's watch week It at Bernie's two again.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
This time with the director's commentary and mind.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
No, then I'll take the ghost a.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
Famous last words. Man, this is actually going exactly how
I thought it would. I knew Trey would take the
movie marathon and wouldn't hesitate a new RAJ might be
tempted to go with the ghost of Russ, mainly because
you didn't spend his mon which time with him.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
As I was gonna say, he was always lovely to me.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Yeah, yeah, he was lovely to us many many times. Yeah,
but he but he but he loved he loved Off
brand tequila more in the end.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
But that's what I'm saying, Like, does the ghost bring
tequila too, because.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
No, he never brought his own. He always made someone
bring it to him.
Speaker 3 (40:22):
Okay, gotcha.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
So I would have to bring the tequila for the
ghost to a peer, yes, Okay, Well.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
That may actually be how it works, Like like you
have to say candy Man five times for candy Man
to appear with Russ. It might be five really cheap
handles of tequila and he may show.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
Up if you pour it, he will come, but he.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Will not pay you for it.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
Instead of beetle juice, we just have to say gin
and juice three times.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
Only if he's really desperate, which he might be by No,
all right, one more, Here we go inside Treo's talk back.
Speaker 11 (41:03):
Hey, guys, let's jase here.
Speaker 3 (41:05):
Two things.
Speaker 11 (41:06):
First, One, did you know Raj was part of the
secret cabal keeping Long John Silver's afloat? Because no, I
don't know about you guys, but I never see anybody
eat there, but apparently Rog has and still does.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
And where did he see this, Raj? Are you posting
on social media your love for Long John Silvers?
Speaker 2 (41:23):
He was trying to talk smack about the LJS, bro,
so I.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Had look, look, look. I thought it was a big
deal the other day that I came out to you
guys as a dedicated powerwasher, and here you are in
the closet being a Long John Silver's lover.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
Oh, I've never been in the closet, brother, I've been
out the whole time since since the eighties. In Mesquite,
that was our Friday night. We would either do pizza
in which is a pizza joint in Mesquite, which is
the best pizza in Town, in my opinion, or Long
John Silvers and we would watch Dallas. That was our
Friday night thing.
Speaker 3 (41:59):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
And I mean you get some You get some chicken
planks and some crumbles and some hush puppies.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
That's a good day. It's fascinating. Both of your secrets
involve pegs.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
I don't know how fascinating it actually is as it
is revealing. I don't know about you, Raj, but I
feel like I've shared too much in this show. For
all things Treehouse, go to Treehouse on Air dot com.
(42:39):
You can also find and follow us on social media.
For the show, it's at Treehouse on Air. For me,
it's at the Dan O'Malley, For Trey, it's at Tree
Turnhome one, and for Raj it's at Comedian Raja. We'll
see you back inside the Treehouse tomorrow. Well b
It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
with us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Mallley, along with
Trey Trendholm and Raj Sharma. It used to be that
a sign of fall is when Starbucks shifts into fall
(00:39):
drink mode, which the last few years has actually started
in August. But right now it seems like the first
indicator of a changing season, even though it's not. Is
my annual head cold? Yeah, I don't think you can
necessarily hear it in my voice yet, but my wife
(01:01):
heard it in my snoring last night. So while I
can actually breathe through my nose, I can feel it
in the back of my throat. I can feel it
building inside my head. And I'm not the only one.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I have a cold as well.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
This is one of the few times that Trey is
not the sick one.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Yeah, especially when it comes to sinus and allergy stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, well, I look at it this way. It could
be way, way worse. We could have gone on vacation
and had a wild bat fly into our mouths. Okay, yeah,
aren't you glad you aren't this lady? A woman on
vacation wound up with over twenty thousand dollars in medical
(01:52):
bills after a bat flew into her mouth. Wow, I
realized this is a story about a woman on vacation
and a bat flies into her mouth. But this story
has a larger picture, and that is the state of
our medical insurance situation. So a little more info here.
(02:16):
A woman on vacation whose employer sponsored health plan had
lapsed after recently being laid off wound up with over
twenty thousand dollars in medical bills after a bat flew
into her mouth. Erica Khan was visiting Glenn Canyon National
Recreation Area in Arizona last August when the horrific encounter
with the winged mammal took place. The former biomedical engineer
(02:44):
noticed a number of bats flying around while she was
outside taking pictures of the night sky, but didn't think
much of it. That is until one got too close
for comfort, winding up trapped between her camera and her face.
When she screamed in terror, sorry a little laugh, an
(03:05):
unknown part of the bat wound up in her mouth
for a few seconds. I love this story unknown part
of the bat, but I think we all know what
part we want.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
It to be.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah, I don't I don't think they wanted to say, and.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Might might explain the source of infection. Anyway. Her father,
a physician who had been traveling with her, loved that sentence.
Who had been traveling with her until the bat queen
flew into his daughter's mouth, and that's when he's like,
that's it, I'm no more traveling with you, said she
(03:51):
should immediately start a course of Rabi's treatments, even though
she wasn't sure if she had been bitten. I like
to think I would know if a bat bit.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Me when I think that's just the protocols to do
RABY shots.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Right, I guess, But I mean if it didn't actually
bite you, I mean, what's It's just you just came
in contact with it. Although it sounds like she did
come in close contact with the bat.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Sounds like she bit the bat.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Ooh, sounds like it.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Actually.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I know we're all missing Aussie, but that's a little ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
There are other ways to pay your respects. She quickly
went online to purchase a medical insurance plan before going
to a hospital and flagstaff to begin treatments, under the
impression it would cover her two week course of RABY shots,
which she received at clinics in Arizona, Massachusetts, and Colorado.
But her biggest shock came when the bill arrived, showing
she owed twenty thousand, seven hundred and forty nine dollars
(04:50):
between the four facilities for treatment, including four doses of
the rabies vaccines and three shots of immunogloblin to increase
antibodies against the virus, which is fatal if left untreated.
She didn't realize the insurance plan she had purchased a
day before starting treatment required a thirty day waiting period
before coverage would kick in. An explanation of benefits letter
(05:13):
she got in the mail grimly explained. She says that
I thought it must have been a mistake, but I
guess I was naive. Yeah. After being laid off from
her engineer position the previous month, she opted against keeping
her insurance under Cobra for six hundred and fifty dollars
a month, rolling the dice that she would not wind
up facing an unexpected medical emergency. This is another shocking
(05:36):
angle to this story. The fact that she could have
had Cobra for six hundred and fifty dollars a month
is astounding because when I was in that exact position
almost three years ago. It was not six fifty a month.
It was like nineteen hundred dollars, to which I said, no,
(05:57):
I'm good, I'll just go cash patient if something bad
does happen.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Okay, Yeah, soifty a month, that is uh, shockingly low
for cobra.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yeah, I don't know what cobra is.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Cobra is a temporary healthcare. It basically when you get
laid off or fired from a job and you have healthcare,
it's kind of a technically it's government subsidized, but you
pay out the ass for it, but they they by law,
have to continue covering you, I want to say, for
six months if but you have to pay it's you're
basically paying what you were paying plus what the employer
(06:34):
contributions were.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
So uh like, it is freakishly expensive.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
The last time I dealt with cobra was when we
got laid off from CBS at the end of two
thousand and eight, so the first part of two thousand
and nine. And I think my Cobra then was like
seventy seventy five like, and that's such seventeen years ago.
And that was before the Affordable Care Act and everything,
(07:02):
and you know, completely changing. Uh so, yeah, that's that
is shocking.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Yeah, so cobra is an option, but it is in
no way a good option when it comes to extending
the health benefits you had at your previous job. It
basically is just telling you, Okay, you can keep this,
but it's going to be so expensive at a time
when you can't afford to be spending shocking amounts of
money on really anything, that you really do wind up thinking,
(07:31):
you know, it's probably better off that I just try
to find something else like Affordable Care Act options or
just go cash patient and hope that I don't catch
anything between now and the next job.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Well, and a lot of times it's the realization of
what healthcare actually cost and what the employer contribution is
on those things.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, and it's also an important reminder that if you're
around many many bats, keep your mouth shut.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Solid advice. I mean, the more you know.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I'm here to help, I am. I am a I
am a one man public service announcement. When you're around fats,
keep your mouth shut.
Speaker 3 (08:18):

know where your children are?

by Cook DFW Roofing and Restoration to get your free
roof inspection called eight three three Cook DFW. You want

three Cook DFW or the website Cook dfw dot com.
I had intended to talk about one thing. I am
now slightly distracted about the possibility of bat and mouth
disease being a thing, so I'm going to keep my
(11:12):
mouth shut as much as possible at dusk. But I
got distracted by a third thing because during that break
I look I look up at Trey, and Trey looks
like he's in the middle of trying to book a flight.
Not because I could see, and it's not that I
could see the words of destinations or things. It's because
(11:33):
I saw a distinctive yellow heading on the top part
of his phone, which I know to be the Spirit
Airlines website on a phone, Trey, is there something you
need to tell us? Uh?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
No, I've got a work trip that I was booking,
got to go to Vegas, and uh. I was exploring
my options. And as I have said before, I really
have never had a bad experience on Spirit. And you
know what, you can book the basically Spirit first Class,
which is those comfy seats and everything else, and uh,
(12:09):
it was a good price.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
So I remember I had to school Fox four's consumer
reporter Steve Noviello on this exact thing a handful of
years ago, because I was in the middle of booking
a flight to Saint Thomas, and Steve was like, you're
going Spirit, Come on, dude, fork off the money, go
take a nicer airline. And I said, well, hang on here,
(12:32):
snobby Mick Snoberson, and I proceeded to tell him that
for that particular leg going from Dallas to Saint Thomas,
Spirit Airlines had the best track record. Is it the
most comfortable seat? Hell no, but it got me there
way better than American ever did and any others. So
that was the one place that I would do it.
(12:52):
And I told him same thing that you're saying right now, Trey.
I can book the big front seat on Spirit Airlines
for the same or maybe cheaper than I can economy
on American. Yeah, and and then things aren't so bad.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
No, I can basically, you know, Southwest is the easiest
for me just because I live right by love Field,
But yeah, if I cannot be squished and for basically
the same price, fly Spirit and get one of those big,
comfy upfront seats. I'll take it.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And now they've changed those big front seats to where
you're buying a package, so you're not just buying the
seat like it used to be. You buy the seat,
and then if you want to drink some stuff, you
got to pay for that as well. But now that
big front seat is its own package. So you get
the seat and you get free drinks and snacks and luggage, yes,
and a free checked bag. And I think they even
(13:59):
let you punch a flight crew member as well. That's
a great package. Look, Spirit is aware of their of
their of their customer base, so they'll give you one
free smack after that. Then you know, FAA regulations kick it.
But if you're flying coach in Spirit, you can't hit
the flight crew. Sorry, you gotta pay for the privilege.
(14:27):
Which is interesting because then because then depending on the flight,
you may because sometimes they'll offer you things mid flight,
you know, to maybe if you want to upgrade, So
maybe that would be an interesting thing. It's like, oh,
you're flying coach, but say one of the flight attendants
really pissed you off, you can just ask the other
one and be like, hey, how much to upgrade for
punch a flight attendant. How much is that because I
like to take advantage of that right now.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Yeah, but you got to jump on that early because
like everything with Spirit, it's a limited quantity, so not
everyone is eligible for that upgrade.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
That's right. You better hurry up because there's this, there's this.
There's this shady looking guy in big front seat number too,
that's looking real punchy.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Now I think it comes. I think it comes complimentary
with the big front seat.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Well, yeah it does, but yeah, you're right, the person
sitting behind the big front maybe it's.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Just starting to remind me of that scene from Airplane
for News. I'll just wind up to just smack that.
Speaker 8 (15:17):
Yeah, now it's attention ladies from gentlemen. Well, the flight
time today will be about one hour and fifty six minutes,
or the cruising off to two to thirty six thousand feet.
The punch of flight attended part of the flight will
kick in in about thirty minutes. That'll be after I
turn off the.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Seat belt sign. So wait until that seat belt sign
turns off.
Speaker 8 (15:34):
As soon as that's off, then you can assume your
spot's in line mid AFT.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I like how you the beatdown starts after drink service.
I can get my cocktails in and starting.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Well, not like that, because then you got because then
you got it, because as they're taking the cart down
the aisle, you got to hit a few people to
drum up more sales for people wanting to hit you afterwards. Which,
by the way, if you've never been hit by the
service cart, oh my god, that hurts.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Yes I have.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
It's brutal and they don't do anything about it.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
No, there are no apologies. That's on you. Yep, stop
man spreading. That has a hard lesson to learn man literally.
Oh anyway, so when do you fly in Spirit Trey.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
A couple of weeks. I gotta go to Vegas for
a fashion trade show.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Oh yeah, you know what, Flying Spirit. Flying Spirit will
give you excellent research in fashion leading up to the event.
It's like the upside down of Milan Runway.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I was gonna say, if it was a cargo short convention, Yes,
experience perfect.

(18:05):
recently and I need to take issue with it and
you because it is really really troubling the content of
this particular post and I feel the need to address
it here on the show. Okay, I don't know who
this individual is or where you found this song, but
you you posted it with the caption when you want
(18:26):
to get your person in the mood, and this is
the song that plays with a young African American man
dancing and apparently courting a young lady.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
It's something about your.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Line.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
Ah, it's well, oh you'll get me one to tell
the dress not better?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Oh yeah. Two questions, number one, what is wrong with you?
And and number two is this that frapper guy from Africa?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
That guy's not dad, he's mute?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Sorry? Sorry?
Speaker 9 (19:09):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
That was my first question because if it is, then
I can't say all the other things that are in
my head. But if it's not, then it's free rain
on this Dude's musical abilities.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
It is not. It's ice jfish, I think, is what
he goes by, or ice JJ fish something like that.
We all have our rabbit holes that we kind of
get sucked into, and mine happens to be really, really
bad singing.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
So well, congratulations, Yeah, you clearly reached the end of
the internet.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Yeah you went. You went headfirst into that rabbit hole
and you went all the way to the end.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Because the beat was like when I started listening to it,
people were like making fun of him, and I was like, hey,
it's a young kid, you know, he's probably starting out.
The beat was really good, right, and I was like, okay,
that's it's a solid beat. And then the singing started
and I was like, oh, this is going on, this
is going on the ground all.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Right, let me let me let me listen to it again.
See if I can separate the singing from the actual
beat here, right, Okay, I can't. I cannot separate those
vocals from that music. I can't. I can't do it.
They're one of the same.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
The beats started off pretty dope, and then and then
I don't know where they get the money to do this, Like,
where do you get enough money? And time and how
you hire models and stuff like this, and producers and
how no producer said anything to him while he was
recording the tracks.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
You know what, some even even producers got to make
rent on those studios. They'll let you want to come
in and do a birthday thing. Sure, yeah, give me
my money up front and I'll I'll mix it for
you a bit.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Who this guy watched some YouTube videos and produced himself.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
But I think he has a whole album out, So
just be prepared for in the future more ice jjfish. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I think we're ready for a series. And you're right
because the girls that are in this video, I don't
think he knows them because if he did, or and
they knew him and they heard the song, I don't
think they would have agreed to be in this video.
I think he had to go out and find them,
or perhaps he is trafficking them and this is how
(21:35):
they get their citizenship.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
That's how they get their passports back.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
If you want to go home wherever it as you're from,
you have to appear in my awful R and B
video and then I'll send you back.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
So I think we will start a series at least
once every two weeks we'll put up another ice jjfish song.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Oh yeah, and the name that's uh ice jj Fish
but an homage to ice Cube, Iced Tea, JJ Walker,
Lawrence Fishburn, I mean.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Please meet JJ Walker yea, and the album should be
called Dynamite but uh yeah, I mean I for for
you know, anytime you want to get the lady, you know,
kind of going throw this track down.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
And uh that's.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
World you will get me wanting to there's.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Not real quick How old is this song and video?
Because this guy is wearing an Affliction shirt and that'll
that has not been cool since like two thousand and four.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I'm pretty sure it's brand new.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
That's actually what's old is new again because Ed Hardy's
making a comeback, So don't rule out Affliction.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Oh yes it is. It's it's so terrible.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Okay. Then in that case, what's worse Ed Hardy and
Affliction coming back as cool again, or this guy's music
it's some.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Girl that's well, oh man.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I tell you what though he's uh he seems to
be going after Luke Brian's lime, Luke Brian's rhyming ability
because he's you know, rhyming girl and twirl mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah. I think ed Hardy's worse.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
I think they're synonymous. I mean I I think this
could be the theme song for their comeback.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
You know what, I guess you're right. And if you're
if you're this guy, you'll take any sponsor you can get.
And if skulls with roses in their teeth are cool again,
then by god, let this man eat.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I mean that that honestly. If you especially if you
didn't see the video and you just kind of heard
the song and you told me that was, you know,
something that Tommy Davidson Dinn did on in Living Color,
I'd been like, Okay.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Yeah, absolutely would have believed it.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
I did.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Like the guy in the comment section who had brought
up a great point, he said, I'm gonna tell my
kids this was Chris Brown. I'm in full support of that,
because f Chris Brown.

to Ice jj Fish. That's the guy's name, Raj I
believe so they Yeah, God, you do that really well?
(25:43):
They have a no character on the show. I'm just
gonna start following my wife around. See if that seduces here.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Come on, It's like if Quagmire was really injured. That's
what it's.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
All right. It is Tuesday inside the Treehouse, and that
means it is time for Treehouse Talk Back. So here
we go. We are starting off today with our good
old pal or yeah, our good old pal, Robert Powell.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Right here we go.
Speaker 9 (26:25):
Hey, it's Robert the uh. The story about the Katie
trail dating thing was rather funny. But if you're gonna
do over fifty, then you would have to rename it
the Rascal round Up and uh and go for that,
(26:46):
and it would be the way Tko.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Rush. Were you here when Trey told us about the
Katie Trail round Up? No, Trey, would you inform him
please first?
Speaker 3 (26:57):
So it's the Daity Trail. Sorry, this girl she started
this thing, I don't know, three months ago, called it
the Daity Trail. And so they take places on you know,
on the KTI Trail or around it and have events where,
you know, for singles and and it just immediately exploded.
(27:18):
I mean I think by their second event they had
sold over seven hundred tickets. Wow. But on the fourteenth
they're doing an over thirty five Daity Trail Okay, and
you know it's I still feel like if fifty one
is probably too old, I have maybe seen a couple
(27:38):
of things that have given me a little hope that
it's not. But still I'm still investigating those Okay.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, because Trey was tempted to go, and I don't
blame you. I would be too. I mean, you don't
live far from the KD Trail and the idea of
meeting some new and interesting people makes sense. Get out
there and maybe you find at the very least, maybe
you make a new friend or maybe you spark a
whole new romance. And it's also an opportunity for you
(28:06):
to maybe find someone to date that's younger without being
too young. So like, the thirty five plus is pretty cool.
But and Raj, this is the part that I kind
of understand where Trey's coming from. They say thirty five plus,
but do they really mean thirty five to forty nine?
Because how many thirty seven year olds are going to
be like, you're fifty one? Yes, just what I'm healing for.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I'm just saying he looks good, he's he does I
wouldn't I wouldn't guess fifty one if I met Trey
for the first time.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
No, I think I think Trey could do the Daity
Trail thirty five plus program and say he's forty and
have no questions asked about the authenticity of it.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Rotten Roge, you can come along.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
I'm okay, you guys can be like Steve Martin and
Dan Akroy do wild and crazy guy is on the
Daty Trail.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
You know what, let's do it. That I think would
be hilarious. I just don't think you have the patience
for it. So that's what I want to see. I
just want to see you lose your crap.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
You know. That's a that's something that I know. It'll
be an absolute s show.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
So oh yeah, Trey's gonna get too hot, it's gonna
be too tiring, there's gonna be too many people. He
doesn't want to be around there, and he's got to
get back to the dog.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
So I'm not saying I'm staying a long time. I mean,
there is a good chance i'll even if even if
you come down to you know you, I'll Irish good buy.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
You, which is great. But the other problem you have
to worry about Trey is old man raj circling the
parking areas situation. Because Raj has told us if it
if it takes more than two laps to find a
parking spot, He's gone.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I'm out.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I will take off. I don't.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
That's what I'm talking about, patients.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
I can't do it.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
This is why it's so hard, this is why it's
so hard for men over over fifty to find people
to date. Because Raj only does two laps to find
a park spot and Trey is thinking of it as like, look,
you're gonna get like five ten minutes most because it's
August fourteenth and it's hot outside. And not that either
of you are wrong. I'm just saying that you that
you've built up standards, and not everyone else is going
to be as on board with them as you are.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
You know, I'm not. I won't even delude myself that
it's standards. I mean, I'm just the grumpy old man.
It's like, get off my.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Lawn, to get off my trail sign. But maybe you meet,
maybe you meet your your soulmate, and maybe you meet
a nice lady who's also holding this sign that says
get off my trail. Yeah, the land you come joined trails.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
The last time a white person yelled get off my trail,
it turned out terribly, many many tears.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Where's that.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
In the Treehouse?
Speaker 7 (31:04):

is Tuesday, August fifth, twenty twenty five. Let's celebrate today
(31:52):
with birthdays. Olivia Holpe is twenty eight today. Olivia holt
Is twenty eight. Is Tandy Bowen on Marvel's Cloak and Dagger.
That was a TV show that nobody watched. She was
also an abducted teenager named Katie Wallace on Cruel Summer.
There you go, so two things. I know, none of
us here inside the Treehouse I've seen, but you know
(32:13):
it's her birthday and good for her. Lolo Jones is
the Olympic runner Slash Bob's letter. She is forty three today.
I think she's the one that was the self professed virgin.
I don't know if she still is, or maybe there
was a horrific bobsledding accident and she's not now. I
(32:35):
don't know, but I think that's it.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
I don't know who that is.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
I I mean, I think trying. I think what Olympics
she really was in. It's been a minute.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Yeah, it's been a while. Well, let's not spend too
much time on Lolo Jones and her Olympics and her hymen.
Let's go to Jesse Williams, who is a doctor Jackson
ave Gray's anatomy. He is forty four. He's the one.
They gave a very powerful speech on speech on social
justice at the twenty sixteen be ET Awards and it
(33:09):
did absolutely no good. But it was a lovely speech,
had many, many nice thoughts, and nothing changed. Terry Clark
Country Singer is fifty seven. One of my favorite directors.
James Gunn is fifty nine. I am a James gunfanboy.
I'll admit it. I also will say it's not like
he's infallible, but he's one of my favorite directors right now.
(33:31):
James Gunn fifty nine. He's the writer director of the
Guardians of the Galaxy films, the New Superman movie, and Trey.
I know you watched and enjoyed this Peacemaker.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
Yeah, a new season of comes out I think in
a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Yeah, yeah, you get season two a Peacemaker in a
couple of weeks. He had a nice little cameo in
the New Superman movie.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Is that John Cena?
Speaker 1 (33:54):
Yeah, he's say whatever you think, but watch the show
before you make any judgments on his acting ability.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Yeah, Raj, I was so very skeptical of because I
did not think John Cena could do it. But this role,
the writing, everything, and the opening credits, the opening scene,
you gotta watch it. It is just it's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
And here's what's weird about the opening dance credits of
Peacemaker is it is, in fact so good. And James
Gunn came out and said he wanted to make sure
everyone watched the opening credits because he believed in the
work that everyone who's mentioned in those opening credits. He
wanted them to get that proper amount of notoriety and respect,
(34:46):
and he wanted people to see their names having associated
with the program. So he had them come up with
this crazy dance number, and it really is so good.
You watch it every single episode. But now that we're
getting a season two of Peacemaker, that means we're going
to get a whole new opening dance sequence, and I'm
almost as excited for that as I am the actual show.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
That's try it. I was kind of assuming they would
leave it the same, but you're right, they may do
it a new new opening number.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Yeah, because some of those characters aren't going to be
in this show because some of those characters died, although
some are still going to somehow come back in a way.
But I believe he said a few weeks ago. No,
there is a whole new opening sequence.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
I'm here for it.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Yeah, same here, Roger. You can look at his old
judge all you want. You're not going to steal me
in Trey's joy. Other birthdays today, Jonathan Silverman turns fifty nine.
He is the star of Weekend at Bernie's and Weekend
at Bernie's Two. He also had, actually he also had
the sitcom How I Was Forget what it was called?
(35:50):
Was it just called single? He just was? It was
a show. It was on around the time that Friends
was on. It was just like the tier, like the
state down from Friends as far as the show quality,
but it was it wasn't a bad show. Jonathan Silverman
been a fan of his since week Weekend at Bernie's Anyway.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Did you see Weekend at Bernie's two?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
That's a yes, That's why I did.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
That's a that's a stupid question. Raj Raj.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Not only not only did I see the film, but
I now live in the place where it takes place.
In the Islands. There is in fact a bar in
Red Hook on Saint Thomas called Bernie's with a mural
next to the bathrooms of Bernie from Weekend at Bernie's two. Okay, wow,
(36:42):
I know way too much about Weekend at Bernie's too.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
You're the only one.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
Yeah, Well, apparently I'm not, because there's a guy who
owns a bar that named it after it, and it's
not me. Shut up. If I owned that bar, it
would be American Ninja Bar. And if I ever own
a gym, it'll be called Jim. The signs on the
(37:14):
businesses may not say owned by Dan O'Malley, but there
will be other clue. How was what was the plot
from the first It was basically the same as the
first one. I mean really, it was just more of
(37:35):
a miracle on how Bernie didn't decompose in the time
from the first one to the second one.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
You're in the Treehouse.

Speaker 10 (38:31):
Hey guys, Maxwell here, and this is more of a
what you rather question for both Trey and Roge. So
if any of these two were to happen to YouTube,
would you rather have a movie marathon with Dan but
only he picks the bad movies that he likes and chooses,
Or would you rather have your house haunted by the
ghost of us Martin? Just adding a little bit of
(38:52):
a stupid that's on there. Anyways, Hope you guys are
having a good day, and of course.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Thank you Max for keeping the ooh alive inside Treehouse
talk back. There you have it there. It is one
of the most horrific Zambando questions we've ever heard on
this show. Would you rather sit through a movie marathon
where I picked the movies or be haunted by the
ghost of Russ Bart.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
I can't wait to see Jim Kata.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
I'll bring the snuggie and the popcorn.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
I know what I thought settle in Baby, It's gonna
be a wild ride.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Let's watch week It at Bernie's two again.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
This time with the director's commentary and mind.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
No, then I'll take the ghost a.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
Famous last words. Man, this is actually going exactly how
I thought it would. I knew Trey would take the
movie marathon and wouldn't hesitate a new RAJ might be
tempted to go with the ghost of Russ, mainly because
you didn't spend his mon which time with him.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
As I was gonna say, he was always lovely to me.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Yeah, yeah, he was lovely to us many many times. Yeah,
but he but he but he loved he loved Off
brand tequila more in the end.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
But that's what I'm saying, Like, does the ghost bring
tequila too, because.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
No, he never brought his own. He always made someone
bring it to him.
Speaker 3 (40:22):
Okay, gotcha.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
So I would have to bring the tequila for the
ghost to a peer, yes, Okay, Well.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
That may actually be how it works, Like like you
have to say candy Man five times for candy Man
to appear with Russ. It might be five really cheap
handles of tequila and he may show.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
Up if you pour it, he will come, but he.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Will not pay you for it.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
Instead of beetle juice, we just have to say gin
and juice three times.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
Only if he's really desperate, which he might be by No,
all right, one more, Here we go inside Treo's talk back.
Speaker 11 (41:03):
Hey, guys, let's jase here.
Speaker 3 (41:05):
Two things.
Speaker 11 (41:06):
First, One, did you know Raj was part of the
secret cabal keeping Long John Silver's afloat? Because no, I
don't know about you guys, but I never see anybody
eat there, but apparently Rog has and still does.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
And where did he see this, Raj? Are you posting
on social media your love for Long John Silvers?
Speaker 2 (41:23):
He was trying to talk smack about the LJS, bro,
so I.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Had look, look, look. I thought it was a big
deal the other day that I came out to you
guys as a dedicated powerwasher, and here you are in
the closet being a Long John Silver's lover.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
Oh, I've never been in the closet, brother, I've been
out the whole time since since the eighties. In Mesquite,
that was our Friday night. We would either do pizza
in which is a pizza joint in Mesquite, which is
the best pizza in Town, in my opinion, or Long
John Silvers and we would watch Dallas. That was our
Friday night thing.
Speaker 3 (41:59):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
And I mean you get some You get some chicken
planks and some crumbles and some hush puppies.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
That's a good day. It's fascinating. Both of your secrets
involve pegs.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
I don't know how fascinating it actually is as it
is revealing. I don't know about you, Raj, but I
feel like I've shared too much in this show. For
all things Treehouse, go to Treehouse on Air dot com.
