Speaker 2 (00:29):
It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Mallley along with
Trey Trendholm. Today we start inside the Treehouse with Dallas
is one of the most sinful cities in the entire country,
according to a new study, Trey, would you believe that?
(00:51):
At first site? Yeah, let's dig in. In a recent
study conducted by a wallet Hub, Dallas ranked as one
of the top ten most sinful cities in the United States.
The company compared over one hundred and eighty cities across
(01:11):
seven dimensions of traditionally sinful behaviors, ultimately finding that Dallas
is the eighth most sinful city in the country. Good job, Dallas.
Where do you go? Everybody? Good effort, great, proud of you?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Is it? You know?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Is it good? Oh? I mean it's it's interesting.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
San Antonio that was like at twenty three.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, but you know, I feel like eighth.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I mean, either clean up your actor or get dirty
or and get in the top five.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Oh, I like it. I like that. Yeah, either get
serious or get clean. Like, take a run at the
number one spot, right, Yeah, you're going to be If
you're gonna be bad, you might as well be the
best at it sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
I feel like, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
It was gambling one of the things that they looked at.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I believe that plays a part. So let's uh, let
me give you some of the metrics that they used.
So wallet Hub, primarily known as a personal finance service,
branched into cultural research and did a nationwide study to
determine the country's most sinful cities. The analysis evaluated one
hundred and eighty two cities selected from the one hundred
(02:33):
and fifty most populated metro areas against a complex framework
of thirty seven relevant metrics. Those were categorized into seven
key dimensions designed to reflect the modern interpretation of the
seven deadly sins. One of those anger and hatred, severe incidents,
hostility and violence okay. Number two excesses and vices, rates
(02:56):
of obesity, drug use, and excessive drinking sea tray. Had
you not quit drinking nine years ago, you might have
propelled Dallas into the top five. Number three jealousy, theft
and fraud. Number four greed. They looked at casinos, gambling establishments,
low rates of charitable donations. Yeah. Number five is vanity.
(03:21):
Google search interest in plastic surgery, tanning salons per capita.
That's where I feel like Dallas was very strong. Oh surgery, Yeah,
that's uh huh. Number six lust the density of adult
entertainment establishments, Google search trends for affairs and or adult entertainment.
I feel like that's high on the Dallas list. There
(03:41):
absolutely then laziness, low volunteer rates, average time watching television,
and lack of exercise. Because of this, Because of all
those metrics, based on the seven Deadly Sins, the top
five sinful cities in the US. Number one Las Vegas,
no surprise there. Number two though, so Texas strong Houston.
(04:03):
Houston is making a bid to be the most sinful
city in the United States, coming in number two behind
Las Vegas. Number three La four Philadelphia maybe probably just
because they're all a bunch of dicks. Number five Atlanta.
So there you have the top five. Dallas was eighth.
I think San Antonio was third, So interesting on those
(04:24):
on those fronts. The thing that I don't know is
that when they say Dallas, it says metro area, but
where do they actually cut that off? Because in some
of these studies of some of the suburbs of Dallas
are so big in their own right, they don't get
included in Dallas's stuff. You know, cities like Arlington, for Orth.
I mean, they are their own cities. I mean, granted,
(04:47):
I don't think Solion is going to be folded into
the Dallas numbers here, but you know, I mean they're
also not going to be concerned as on the same
level as these others.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, I mean did they Is it the metro area
or is it just Dallas? I think is uh, but
I can definitely. I mean there's some of those you know,
Dallas hit high on uh, you know, charity. I'd say
Dallas is one of the better cities and stuff like that.
But vanity, adultery, adult entertainment.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I think I I.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Think we're still top ten and like strip clubs per capita.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Oh, we got to be at least top three.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
I think we.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I mean I would I would say Vegas, Miami, Dallas
and some order in there.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
You know, do you know what typically is the number
one city? Tampa Bay?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
The fuck? How how a lot of clubs? Is that?
Why our Buddy Diego splits time between DFW and Tampa Bay.
That a boy d Really, that is such a random
(06:00):
Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Yeah, okay, I remember seeing that list years ago and
it was like number one per capita Tampa Bay.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I was like, wow, I've never been, so I don't know.
But but when you consider how often Tampa Bay gets
a Super Bowl, it kind of makes sense. And all
those all those former players with Super Bowl tickets and
TV gigs got to have someplace to blow off steam.
(06:28):
Kind of like that time we saw Chris Carter at
the Platinum Club. And it's not like we're speaking out
of turn here. I mean, it's not like he was
trying to hide his face.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, I mean there there was a time where you
could go to a number of the local gentlemen's club
and see many a pro.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Athlete, many a pro athlete, many many.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Rosters.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
It's it's it's defense night at at the lodge.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
The offense is gathering down the street of baby dolls.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Yeah, that is exactly where.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Special teams is at the clubhouse because they can't afford
the nicer.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Spots offense and and you know, sometimes uh management, uh
flash ownership would would would partake as well.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Mm hmmm, mm hmmmm hmmmm. It's the team unity in
Dallas is is a different thing compared to other places.
Like like, something tells me the Mara family that owns
and runs the Giants aren't hanging out partying with the
team like the like the Joneses do.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
No. But you know who would want to go to
a strip club with Eli? You know what?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I kind of would just just to see how he's dopey.
He looked, I don't be playing football. Can you imagine
him trying to tip or did a left Like even
Peyton would roll in be like, you can't even do
that better than me.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Sit there, that dumbface.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
She's trying to touch me where I pee?
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Eli, just just hit the check down, go to the bathroom.
Just save yourself. Also, also a man was arrested for
carjacking then stealing the same car. Again, this did not
happen in Dallas, so this did not affect the city
of Dallas's sinful rating. In Waterbury, Connecticut, a man was
(08:52):
arrested after allegedly carjacking a woman in November, then stealing
the vehicle back after police recovered it In a post
on Facebook, the Waterbury Police Department said Aaron Rodriguez de
los Santos, a twenty six year old city resident, which
was charged with larceny of a motor vehicle first offense
and two counts of possession of narcotic with intent to sell.
(09:14):
Police said the arrest comes in connection with an incident
that began November twenty third, when a twenty fifteen Honda
Civic was stolen. They said Rodriguez de Losentos followed the
victim home and as she exited her vehicle, pusher took
the key fob and stole the car. Police said. The
vehicle later recovered by police, but he still had the
vehicle's keyfob and stole the vehicle a second time. On Wednesday.
(09:38):
About an hour later, officers with the Auto Theft Task Force,
in the job that they probably thought was the easiest
they'll ever have in their careers, saw the stolen Civic
at a gas station and the man was arrested without incident.
Then he was also found in possession of fentonyl and
crack cocaine. So he's in trouble times two now. But
(09:58):
doesn't this beg the question I will what is it
about that Honda Civic he loved so much, you know,
dependability something to be said for that. I mean, don't
get me wrong, twenty fifteen is a good fine, fine
year for a Honda Civic.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Uh but does it?
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Where did the police department go, oh, hey, we'll take that.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
You know, where's the fob?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
So not everyone knows this, but we know we know
enough police officers in our lives. We know enough police
officers in our lives to know that sometimes they make mistakes,
and sometimes they don't get all the pieces of evidence
that they were supposed to or, in the case of
a video I saw the other day, sometimes they leave
(10:52):
their AR fifteen on top of the car next to
the light bars they drive around town that was not Dallas,
by the ways.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I know.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
They are not perfect, but they do try. And in
this case, I imagine it was two officers and one
of them thought the other one was gonna get that
key fob, and instead it was returned to the guy
when he bailed out of jail the first time.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
You know, I mean, that's I mean, I feel like
that's for the second offense. I feel like that's his defense.
I mean, you know, you just go to judge. You go,
what'd you expect?
Speaker 3 (11:28):
You know?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yeah, if you left crack with a crackhead, they're gonna
spoke it.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
And at that point, I don't know if I can
really blame him, you know, I mean, because if you
get arrested and this is an interesting legal question, get
he gets arrested for stealing this car, right, but then
the police returned the key to him that he's stole,
that's supposed to be key evidence in the first crime.
If they return it back to him, couldn't he then say, well,
(11:56):
it seemed to me like the police wanted me to have.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
It, or they were they were framing him.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
It's a beautiful frame job. He's just sitting there posing.

(14:58):
about how over the weekend Tara and I watched Santa
Claus the movie, not the Santa Claus starring Tim Allen,
but Santa Claus the movie, which came out in the
late eighties. I need to pull up to see exactly
what year and everything. But this starred Dudley Moore, who
(15:18):
had a starring role as Patch, one of the elves
in the film. Also John Lithgow as the bad guy
in the film named Beez, head of Bez Toys. David
Huddleston played Santa Claus. And there's even there's a couple
of kids in the movie. One of them, her name
is Carrie Heim. She plays Cornelia. She's one of those
(15:42):
like eighties actresses. She plays a little girl in the movie.
You would recognize her if you start you'd be like, oh, yeah,
that girl. So anyway, that was one of the movies
we watched over the weekend, kind of getting that Christmas spirit,
and I noticed it. It's Rotten Tomatoes score was hot garbage.
It was basically I think it was sixty seven percent
(16:04):
on Rotten Tomatoes. And look, I get it. I can
see how certain things about the movie may not hold
up compared to some newer films. So I get that,
but I have to bet I was a little surprised
at that score. No, Trey, you've never seen it, But
what would you say, is the best Christmas movie of
all time? Did I Break You?
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Scrooged or The Ref?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
So two great ones, but unfortunately, according to IMDb rankings,
they did not make the top ten.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I'm sure those swats are gonna put elf somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
You really hate that movie?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
It is I it's an awful movie.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Wow, that's a hot take. Why is it such an
awful movie?
Speaker 3 (17:08):
It's cheesy, predictable, stupid.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I find Will Ferrell just and I love him and
a lot of things he does, but I find him
just over the top and annoying.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Okay, I've never even gotten through the entire movie. It's
it sucks that bad.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
You hate it that bad. It's not that it sucks,
you just think it sucks. You hate it, You hate
it with a passion. All Right, I am pulling up,
according to IMDb rankings, the movies you just said, because
I want to see how they compare. Because someone put
together the list of the best Christmas movies of all time,
(17:55):
ranked by IMDb score, and your guesses of screw Rouged
and The Ref did not make the top ten. So
I have here the best Christmas movies of all time,
ranked by IMDb's score. Trey. You will be happy to
learn that Elf did not make this top ten list.
(18:16):
It has an IMDb score of seven point one.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Scrooged six point nine also did not make the top ten.
And The Ref another favorite of both of ours, starring
Dennis Leary, Kevin Spacey, Judy Davis, phenomenal film. One of
my favorite all time lines in movie history is in
this film also only ranks a six point nine. I
think that is a poor number, not because of the film,
(18:48):
but because clearly of the people doing the ratings, they
have screwed up majorly. Anyway, Santa Claus, the movie from
nineteen eighty five that I was telling you about, six
point three on the IMDb scale, So those movies did
not make the top ten. As far as the best
Christmas movies of all time at number ten, Love actually
(19:11):
with a seven point five. This is a Christmas movie
I still have not seen, and in the last couple
of years, I'm starting to see a lot of hate
growing for this one. Like there are people that are
very much like not because they question whether or not
it's a Christmas movie or whatever, but they just hate
the film, like like I guess some of the characters
and are just really terrible.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah, uh, it's a it's not the Notebook, but.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Jesus well, it's I can see why people kind of
hate it, but it's not it's worth seeing one time.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
So I think one of the reasons why people or
it has like this ground swell of hate is because
and again I've never seen it, so I don't know,
so help me here. The most Like, there's a whole
meme that came out of the film with Andrew Lincoln,
best known as you know, playing what's his name in
Walking Dead is at the door of Kiera Knightley's house,
and I get he's shown he's written out on Q
(20:10):
cards his feelings for her and that he loves her.
But he's doing that because I guess she's married to
his best friend. So this is just really awful, Like
he's he's torpedoing this marriage and he's stabbing his best
buddy in the back, all in the name of you know,
Christmas joy and selfishness, I guess. So that's one of
the reasons why he gets a lot of you know, hate. Yeah,
(20:31):
but love actually number ten seven point five my movie,
possibly one of my favorite movies of all time. If
you put a gun to my head and I have
to choose a favorite movie of all time, I would
probably be I'd probably say National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. That
is seven point five, good for number nine in the list.
But then there's number eight, The Bishop's Wife. I don't
(20:53):
think I've ever heard of this. It came out in
nineteen forty seven and has a seven point six. Okay,
I've Nonumber seven. White Christmas with Danny F and K
came out in nineteen fifty four, also scored a seven
point six okay. Then Home Alone okay, seven point seven.
(21:13):
The Nightmare Before Christmas seven point nine, good to start
the top five. We watched it a handful of years ago.
I mean, I get why people love it. I didn't
love it, but I couldn't see why others would.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I it has been so long, I've that's a movie
I need to go back, and rewatch, I just don't remember.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Number four is another one of your least favorites. A
Christmas Story seven point nine.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah, I think that is. I don't understand why that's
a classic.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
And you watched it as a kid and still don't
like it, because you know, like Raj And there are
others that people that don't like that movie, and it's
usually because they didn't see it as a kid. Typically,
if you see it as a kid, you like it.
Trey is the exception here. Then we go to the
top three. Miracle on thirty fourth Street came out in
nineteen forty seven, still hold strong with a seven point
(22:11):
nine on IMDb.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
I've never seen that.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
I don't think I have either that. I've just seen
like little clips and stuff throughout the years, and they've
remade that a couple of times. Number two, a Christmas
Carol from nineteen fifty one is sitting with an eight
point one. I don't think I've seen that version.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Yeah, I now, I would say I would have if
you said the George C. Scott one from the eighties,
I would have been like, yeah, okay, I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Yeah, and I've seen that one a couple of times.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Very good, and i'd even take Patrick Stewart version.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Yeah mm hmm. And then number one, No Surprise, It's
a Wonderful Life came out in nineteen forty six, holding
strong eight point six.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
So I have never seen that one all the way through.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
You know, it's one of those that's so iconic, and
you see so many clips and things throughout your life,
it feels like you've seen it, even if you've never
sat through the entire thing from beginning to end. I
think the only reason I've seen it from beginning to
end is because it was we were forced to watch
it when I was in high school. My senior year,
we took the blowoff of all blowoff senior courses, Theater four,
(23:24):
i e. Movie watching, And you didn't have to take
theater one, two, or three in order to get into
Theater four. I don't even know why they called it
Theater four if you didn't have to take one, two,
or three as prerequisites, whatever the case, but that's you
watched old classic movies. And by god, it was a
blowoff class. But I really enjoyed it. I learned a
(23:45):
lot about movies. We watched Citizen Kane, the Original King Kong,
It's a Wonderful Life, all these movies that I absolutely
never would have watched on my own because they were
old and black and white, and some of them were
silent films, and I'm like, I don't want to watch this.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Is this the same school that you know discourage you
from taking AP courses.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
No, that was the middle school that fed into this school.

It just kind of happened. Also partly because it's mostly
kind of a guy talk show, so we don't really
play many birthing videos on the show. But this one's
so good that I just felt like it needed to
be shared. Trey Brow But take a deep breath, It'll
be okay, but also plug your ears right now?
Speaker 7 (26:11):
What three?
Speaker 2 (26:19):
So here we have an intake room at Dallas Regional
Medical Center in Mesquite. A young woman is in a wheelchair,
writhing in pain, screaming that you can hear, and she's
sitting next to an intake lady who could not give
less of an f the pain and discomfort that this
woman is going through. I'm going to start this back
(26:42):
at the top. Here we go, right now?
Speaker 7 (26:53):
What three? Here's your laying in her doctor.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
I've never been pregnant and I never will be pregnant,
but I'm pretty sure that you shouldn't just be asking
intake questions to a woman who's going through labor. That
doesn't seem like the best time to me, especially if
as in she said, it's in her ass. Yeah, I
mean she's what she said. This is her third kid,
so I mean she's had two the normal way as
(27:33):
far as we know. So if it's in her ass,
I think she's gonna know. I mean, look, if you
get a woman who's wheeled into your intake area at
the er and she says she's about to live, she's
about to deliver a but baby, stop asking her questions
and get her into an actual room.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Or you know, if they're just if they're screaming and
writhing in pain, you know, it seems like you would
attend to that first and then and worry about paperwork later.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Yeah, because look, I mean, once they start giving birth,
they're pretty much committed to the hospital. They're not getting out.
You can, you can hit them with the paperwork anytime.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Well, and they're kind of giving you a deposit.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yes, very much. So at the very least you'll be
able to hit him with the cleaning fee.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Yeah, I remember the m I remember the story came
out last week and I was like, oh, but it's ugly.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Yeah, breathe it out, breathe it out. Yeah, Actually, are
your patients like this?
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Adjust the black ones?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Woo, there it is, And the white intake lady just
ignores that question, just like she's ignoring the black mother
that's about to give birth in the middle of this
er intake. Now that that has been introduced into this story.
The baby was born twelve minutes later after this video
(29:16):
was taken, and the hospital worker has since been fired.
So this video went viral, and the hospital at the
center of this controversy said the individual shown in the footage.
The lady who's asking the questions and couldn't seem to
care any less for this woman is no longer employed
(29:36):
at the hospital. And this is my favorite part. New
training programs have been launched. Look, I mean, at a
certain point, there's only so much training you can do
as a hospital, and I realize that's just a cover
your ass attorney thing to have new training programs. In effect,
(29:57):
you can't make someone care about somebody else if they
just don't.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Well you you know, I've been to an emergency room
once or twice and generally, uh, if you're bleeding, uh,
have some kind of you know, spasm, uh whatever, heart attack, labor,
they generally rush you right in and attend to you
(30:25):
and then you know, you can worry about paperwork later.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
If you're there for a boo boo, then they might
you know, make you go through intake.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
But but a babe usually gets you right through.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
But you know, and it's it's funny and in this
day and age, that's got to hurt that hospital all
all around.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Oh yeah, and look, I mean Dallas Regional Medical Center
of Mesquite is not going to be high on the
list of hospitals that a number of mothers are going
to say, that's right, want to have a baby. But
you know what, not everyone gets to choose the hospital,
you know. And in this case, she actually had According
(31:10):
to the story, this mother had everything all planned out,
this is her third kid, had everything arranged with the doctor,
her due date, some of the things that they're asking her,
when your due date the eleventh, When are you having
the kid? Now? They had it all set up. Everything
was suposed to be ready to go, but she just
couldn't get to her whole birthing plan because the intake.
Lady wouldn't let her through. The hospital said in a statement,
the safety of our patients is always our top priority,
(31:33):
and we're grateful for the high quality, compassionate care teams
right every day, deeply committed honoring blah blah blah blah blah.
The individual showing in the video did not reflect our
values or uphold our standards, and it is no longer
employed at Dallas Regional Medical Center. That's not going to
stop the impending lawsuit because it's sharks smell blood in
the water and lawyers smell money in the water or
(31:55):
in this case, in the after birth.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Yeah, at the very least, they'll pay some thing just
to make it go away.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Yep, they'll settle this, without a doubt. They don't want this,
They don't want that video being played for a jury.
Days after the nurse is firing, the attorney for the
young mother spoke to NBC five. According to her legal team,
birth that the Mesquite hospital was planned. They knew she
was coming, she gave notice, she was actually on her
way in. She was in active labor. But more egregious
(32:23):
is that she actually was scheduled to be induced at
this facility. That's according to the attorney. Medical malpractice and
negligence attorney Sarah Raisch said Jones gave birth at the
hospital soon after the video was recorded, in is now
home recovering with her child. That child's college fund is
going to look very nice.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
In the meantime, let's enjoy the risk a little more
of this gem of a video. Oh, now she's on
the phone with somebody her Yeah, customer services pre pregnancies.
(33:10):
Two babies at Alon is not good. I bet you
y'all listen next time. She's not wrong about that, delivering
at this hospital.
Speaker 6 (33:25):
Your ass should have changed, aftirs.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
That's just what she wants to hear. She wants to
hear her mom telling her, I told you.
Speaker 6 (33:34):
So this This sounds like your mom, Drey. Oh yeah,
are you about to give birth on the floor of
this waiting room?
Speaker 2 (33:46):
You know what I told you? So? You shouldn't have
done this hospital.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
I told you not to have a heart attack here.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
The good news is this young this young mother has
a hell of a birthing video for her third child.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Yeah, oh it's you know.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
And nurses are in general underappreciated, like they they do
miraculous things.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
But and we don't know that this that this in turn,
in turn, Jesus, we don't know if this intake person
is a nurse. Sometimes these are just employees. They have
their job, they date. I'm the intake person. I got
to ask the questions. I don't know if if that's
a nurse or some level of nurse or not. But
(34:40):
if so, she's not a very good one. She does
seem to be a very strict intake coordinator though she
is not going to let she is not going to
let some stup, some stupid birthing mother get in the
way of her asking her questions, are you in any
pain right now?
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Yeah, there's got to be another job far more suited.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
For her, you know, waitress, Both of those, Both of
those would be much better than the job she had.
Uh And honestly, after this video, I don't think she'll
be able to get a job as an intern as
any I keep saying, in turn, as an intake person ever.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Again, not without some you know, probably change of hair.
Move move some place with low internet quality.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
And a lot fewer questions on there.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
For Yeah, this is.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
A lot better my last job. I had like thirty questions.
It was stupid. It was great for all things Treehouse.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Mallley along with
Trey Trendholm. Today we start inside the Treehouse with Dallas
is one of the most sinful cities in the entire country,
according to a new study, Trey, would you believe that?
(00:51):
At first site? Yeah, let's dig in. In a recent
study conducted by a wallet Hub, Dallas ranked as one
of the top ten most sinful cities in the United States.
The company compared over one hundred and eighty cities across
(01:11):
seven dimensions of traditionally sinful behaviors, ultimately finding that Dallas
is the eighth most sinful city in the country. Good job, Dallas.
Where do you go? Everybody? Good effort, great, proud of you?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Is it? You know?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Is it good? Oh? I mean it's it's interesting.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
San Antonio that was like at twenty three.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, but you know, I feel like eighth.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I mean, either clean up your actor or get dirty
or and get in the top five.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Oh, I like it. I like that. Yeah, either get
serious or get clean. Like, take a run at the
number one spot, right, Yeah, you're going to be If
you're gonna be bad, you might as well be the
best at it sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
I feel like, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
It was gambling one of the things that they looked at.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I believe that plays a part. So let's uh, let
me give you some of the metrics that they used.
So wallet Hub, primarily known as a personal finance service,
branched into cultural research and did a nationwide study to
determine the country's most sinful cities. The analysis evaluated one
hundred and eighty two cities selected from the one hundred
(02:33):
and fifty most populated metro areas against a complex framework
of thirty seven relevant metrics. Those were categorized into seven
key dimensions designed to reflect the modern interpretation of the
seven deadly sins. One of those anger and hatred, severe incidents,
hostility and violence okay. Number two excesses and vices, rates
(02:56):
of obesity, drug use, and excessive drinking sea tray. Had
you not quit drinking nine years ago, you might have
propelled Dallas into the top five. Number three jealousy, theft
and fraud. Number four greed. They looked at casinos, gambling establishments,
low rates of charitable donations. Yeah. Number five is vanity.
(03:21):
Google search interest in plastic surgery, tanning salons per capita.
That's where I feel like Dallas was very strong. Oh surgery, Yeah,
that's uh huh. Number six lust the density of adult
entertainment establishments, Google search trends for affairs and or adult entertainment.
I feel like that's high on the Dallas list. There
(03:41):
absolutely then laziness, low volunteer rates, average time watching television,
and lack of exercise. Because of this, Because of all
those metrics, based on the seven Deadly Sins, the top
five sinful cities in the US. Number one Las Vegas,
no surprise there. Number two though, so Texas strong Houston.
(04:03):
Houston is making a bid to be the most sinful
city in the United States, coming in number two behind
Las Vegas. Number three La four Philadelphia maybe probably just
because they're all a bunch of dicks. Number five Atlanta.
So there you have the top five. Dallas was eighth.
I think San Antonio was third, So interesting on those
(04:24):
on those fronts. The thing that I don't know is
that when they say Dallas, it says metro area, but
where do they actually cut that off? Because in some
of these studies of some of the suburbs of Dallas
are so big in their own right, they don't get
included in Dallas's stuff. You know, cities like Arlington, for Orth.
I mean, they are their own cities. I mean, granted,
(04:47):
I don't think Solion is going to be folded into
the Dallas numbers here, but you know, I mean they're
also not going to be concerned as on the same
level as these others.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, I mean did they Is it the metro area
or is it just Dallas? I think is uh, but
I can definitely. I mean there's some of those you know,
Dallas hit high on uh, you know, charity. I'd say
Dallas is one of the better cities and stuff like that.
But vanity, adultery, adult entertainment.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I think I I.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Think we're still top ten and like strip clubs per capita.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Oh, we got to be at least top three.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
I think we.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I mean I would I would say Vegas, Miami, Dallas
and some order in there.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
You know, do you know what typically is the number
one city? Tampa Bay?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
The fuck? How how a lot of clubs? Is that?
Why our Buddy Diego splits time between DFW and Tampa Bay.
That a boy d Really, that is such a random
(06:00):
Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Yeah, okay, I remember seeing that list years ago and
it was like number one per capita Tampa Bay.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I was like, wow, I've never been, so I don't know.
But but when you consider how often Tampa Bay gets
a Super Bowl, it kind of makes sense. And all
those all those former players with Super Bowl tickets and
TV gigs got to have someplace to blow off steam.
(06:28):
Kind of like that time we saw Chris Carter at
the Platinum Club. And it's not like we're speaking out
of turn here. I mean, it's not like he was
trying to hide his face.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, I mean there there was a time where you
could go to a number of the local gentlemen's club
and see many a pro.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Athlete, many a pro athlete, many many.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Rosters.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
It's it's it's defense night at at the lodge.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
The offense is gathering down the street of baby dolls.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Yeah, that is exactly where.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Special teams is at the clubhouse because they can't afford
the nicer.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Spots offense and and you know, sometimes uh management, uh
flash ownership would would would partake as well.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Mm hmmm, mm hmmmm hmmmm. It's the team unity in
Dallas is is a different thing compared to other places.
Like like, something tells me the Mara family that owns
and runs the Giants aren't hanging out partying with the
team like the like the Joneses do.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
No. But you know who would want to go to
a strip club with Eli? You know what?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I kind of would just just to see how he's dopey.
He looked, I don't be playing football. Can you imagine
him trying to tip or did a left Like even
Peyton would roll in be like, you can't even do
that better than me.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Sit there, that dumbface.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
She's trying to touch me where I pee?
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Eli, just just hit the check down, go to the bathroom.
Just save yourself. Also, also a man was arrested for
carjacking then stealing the same car. Again, this did not
happen in Dallas, so this did not affect the city
of Dallas's sinful rating. In Waterbury, Connecticut, a man was
(08:52):
arrested after allegedly carjacking a woman in November, then stealing
the vehicle back after police recovered it In a post
on Facebook, the Waterbury Police Department said Aaron Rodriguez de
los Santos, a twenty six year old city resident, which
was charged with larceny of a motor vehicle first offense
and two counts of possession of narcotic with intent to sell.
(09:14):
Police said the arrest comes in connection with an incident
that began November twenty third, when a twenty fifteen Honda
Civic was stolen. They said Rodriguez de Losentos followed the
victim home and as she exited her vehicle, pusher took
the key fob and stole the car. Police said. The
vehicle later recovered by police, but he still had the
vehicle's keyfob and stole the vehicle a second time. On Wednesday.
(09:38):
About an hour later, officers with the Auto Theft Task Force,
in the job that they probably thought was the easiest
they'll ever have in their careers, saw the stolen Civic
at a gas station and the man was arrested without incident.
Then he was also found in possession of fentonyl and
crack cocaine. So he's in trouble times two now. But
(09:58):
doesn't this beg the question I will what is it
about that Honda Civic he loved so much, you know,
dependability something to be said for that. I mean, don't
get me wrong, twenty fifteen is a good fine, fine
year for a Honda Civic.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Uh but does it?
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Where did the police department go, oh, hey, we'll take that.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
You know, where's the fob?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
So not everyone knows this, but we know we know
enough police officers in our lives. We know enough police
officers in our lives to know that sometimes they make mistakes,
and sometimes they don't get all the pieces of evidence
that they were supposed to or, in the case of
a video I saw the other day, sometimes they leave
(10:52):
their AR fifteen on top of the car next to
the light bars they drive around town that was not Dallas,
by the ways.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I know.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
They are not perfect, but they do try. And in
this case, I imagine it was two officers and one
of them thought the other one was gonna get that
key fob, and instead it was returned to the guy
when he bailed out of jail the first time.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
You know, I mean, that's I mean, I feel like
that's for the second offense. I feel like that's his defense.
I mean, you know, you just go to judge. You go,
what'd you expect?
Speaker 3 (11:28):
You know?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yeah, if you left crack with a crackhead, they're gonna
spoke it.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
And at that point, I don't know if I can
really blame him, you know, I mean, because if you
get arrested and this is an interesting legal question, get
he gets arrested for stealing this car, right, but then
the police returned the key to him that he's stole,
that's supposed to be key evidence in the first crime.
If they return it back to him, couldn't he then say, well,
(11:56):
it seemed to me like the police wanted me to have.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
It, or they were they were framing him.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
It's a beautiful frame job. He's just sitting there posing.

(14:58):
about how over the weekend Tara and I watched Santa
Claus the movie, not the Santa Claus starring Tim Allen,
but Santa Claus the movie, which came out in the
late eighties. I need to pull up to see exactly
what year and everything. But this starred Dudley Moore, who
(15:18):
had a starring role as Patch, one of the elves
in the film. Also John Lithgow as the bad guy
in the film named Beez, head of Bez Toys. David
Huddleston played Santa Claus. And there's even there's a couple
of kids in the movie. One of them, her name
is Carrie Heim. She plays Cornelia. She's one of those
(15:42):
like eighties actresses. She plays a little girl in the movie.
You would recognize her if you start you'd be like, oh, yeah,
that girl. So anyway, that was one of the movies
we watched over the weekend, kind of getting that Christmas spirit,
and I noticed it. It's Rotten Tomatoes score was hot garbage.
It was basically I think it was sixty seven percent
(16:04):
on Rotten Tomatoes. And look, I get it. I can
see how certain things about the movie may not hold
up compared to some newer films. So I get that,
but I have to bet I was a little surprised
at that score. No, Trey, you've never seen it, But
what would you say, is the best Christmas movie of
all time? Did I Break You?
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Scrooged or The Ref?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
So two great ones, but unfortunately, according to IMDb rankings,
they did not make the top ten.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I'm sure those swats are gonna put elf somewhere.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
You really hate that movie?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
It is I it's an awful movie.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Wow, that's a hot take. Why is it such an
awful movie?
Speaker 3 (17:08):
It's cheesy, predictable, stupid.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I find Will Ferrell just and I love him and
a lot of things he does, but I find him
just over the top and annoying.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Okay, I've never even gotten through the entire movie. It's
it sucks that bad.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
You hate it that bad. It's not that it sucks,
you just think it sucks. You hate it, You hate
it with a passion. All Right, I am pulling up,
according to IMDb rankings, the movies you just said, because
I want to see how they compare. Because someone put
together the list of the best Christmas movies of all time,
(17:55):
ranked by IMDb score, and your guesses of screw Rouged
and The Ref did not make the top ten. So
I have here the best Christmas movies of all time,
ranked by IMDb's score. Trey. You will be happy to
learn that Elf did not make this top ten list.
(18:16):
It has an IMDb score of seven point one.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Scrooged six point nine also did not make the top ten.
And The Ref another favorite of both of ours, starring
Dennis Leary, Kevin Spacey, Judy Davis, phenomenal film. One of
my favorite all time lines in movie history is in
this film also only ranks a six point nine. I
think that is a poor number, not because of the film,
(18:48):
but because clearly of the people doing the ratings, they
have screwed up majorly. Anyway, Santa Claus, the movie from
nineteen eighty five that I was telling you about, six
point three on the IMDb scale, So those movies did
not make the top ten. As far as the best
Christmas movies of all time at number ten, Love actually
(19:11):
with a seven point five. This is a Christmas movie
I still have not seen, and in the last couple
of years, I'm starting to see a lot of hate
growing for this one. Like there are people that are
very much like not because they question whether or not
it's a Christmas movie or whatever, but they just hate
the film, like like I guess some of the characters
and are just really terrible.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah, uh, it's a it's not the Notebook, but.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Jesus well, it's I can see why people kind of
hate it, but it's not it's worth seeing one time.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
So I think one of the reasons why people or
it has like this ground swell of hate is because
and again I've never seen it, so I don't know,
so help me here. The most Like, there's a whole
meme that came out of the film with Andrew Lincoln,
best known as you know, playing what's his name in
Walking Dead is at the door of Kiera Knightley's house,
and I get he's shown he's written out on Q
(20:10):
cards his feelings for her and that he loves her.
But he's doing that because I guess she's married to
his best friend. So this is just really awful, Like
he's he's torpedoing this marriage and he's stabbing his best
buddy in the back, all in the name of you know,
Christmas joy and selfishness, I guess. So that's one of
the reasons why he gets a lot of you know, hate. Yeah,
(20:31):
but love actually number ten seven point five my movie,
possibly one of my favorite movies of all time. If
you put a gun to my head and I have
to choose a favorite movie of all time, I would
probably be I'd probably say National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. That
is seven point five, good for number nine in the list.
But then there's number eight, The Bishop's Wife. I don't
(20:53):
think I've ever heard of this. It came out in
nineteen forty seven and has a seven point six. Okay,
I've Nonumber seven. White Christmas with Danny F and K
came out in nineteen fifty four, also scored a seven
point six okay. Then Home Alone okay, seven point seven.
(21:13):
The Nightmare Before Christmas seven point nine, good to start
the top five. We watched it a handful of years ago.
I mean, I get why people love it. I didn't
love it, but I couldn't see why others would.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I it has been so long, I've that's a movie
I need to go back, and rewatch, I just don't remember.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Number four is another one of your least favorites. A
Christmas Story seven point nine.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah, I think that is. I don't understand why that's
a classic.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
And you watched it as a kid and still don't
like it, because you know, like Raj And there are
others that people that don't like that movie, and it's
usually because they didn't see it as a kid. Typically,
if you see it as a kid, you like it.
Trey is the exception here. Then we go to the
top three. Miracle on thirty fourth Street came out in
nineteen forty seven, still hold strong with a seven point
(22:11):
nine on IMDb.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
I've never seen that.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
I don't think I have either that. I've just seen
like little clips and stuff throughout the years, and they've
remade that a couple of times. Number two, a Christmas
Carol from nineteen fifty one is sitting with an eight
point one. I don't think I've seen that version.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Yeah, I now, I would say I would have if
you said the George C. Scott one from the eighties,
I would have been like, yeah, okay, I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Yeah, and I've seen that one a couple of times.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Very good, and i'd even take Patrick Stewart version.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Yeah mm hmm. And then number one, No Surprise, It's
a Wonderful Life came out in nineteen forty six, holding
strong eight point six.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
So I have never seen that one all the way through.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
You know, it's one of those that's so iconic, and
you see so many clips and things throughout your life,
it feels like you've seen it, even if you've never
sat through the entire thing from beginning to end. I
think the only reason I've seen it from beginning to
end is because it was we were forced to watch
it when I was in high school. My senior year,
we took the blowoff of all blowoff senior courses, Theater four,
(23:24):
i e. Movie watching, And you didn't have to take
theater one, two, or three in order to get into
Theater four. I don't even know why they called it
Theater four if you didn't have to take one, two,
or three as prerequisites, whatever the case, but that's you
watched old classic movies. And by god, it was a
blowoff class. But I really enjoyed it. I learned a
(23:45):
lot about movies. We watched Citizen Kane, the Original King Kong,
It's a Wonderful Life, all these movies that I absolutely
never would have watched on my own because they were
old and black and white, and some of them were
silent films, and I'm like, I don't want to watch this.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Is this the same school that you know discourage you
from taking AP courses.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
No, that was the middle school that fed into this school.

Maybe I write that down at some point, but whatever,
as it is, we have a little bit more inside
the Treehouse for today. And I didn't mean to bury this.
(25:44):
It just kind of happened. Also partly because it's mostly
kind of a guy talk show, so we don't really
play many birthing videos on the show. But this one's
so good that I just felt like it needed to
be shared. Trey Brow But take a deep breath, It'll
be okay, but also plug your ears right now?
Speaker 7 (26:11):
What three?
Speaker 2 (26:19):
So here we have an intake room at Dallas Regional
Medical Center in Mesquite. A young woman is in a wheelchair,
writhing in pain, screaming that you can hear, and she's
sitting next to an intake lady who could not give
less of an f the pain and discomfort that this
woman is going through. I'm going to start this back
(26:42):
at the top. Here we go, right now?
Speaker 7 (26:53):
What three? Here's your laying in her doctor.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
I've never been pregnant and I never will be pregnant,
but I'm pretty sure that you shouldn't just be asking
intake questions to a woman who's going through labor. That
doesn't seem like the best time to me, especially if
as in she said, it's in her ass. Yeah, I
mean she's what she said. This is her third kid,
so I mean she's had two the normal way as
(27:33):
far as we know. So if it's in her ass,
I think she's gonna know. I mean, look, if you
get a woman who's wheeled into your intake area at
the er and she says she's about to live, she's
about to deliver a but baby, stop asking her questions
and get her into an actual room.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Or you know, if they're just if they're screaming and
writhing in pain, you know, it seems like you would
attend to that first and then and worry about paperwork later.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Yeah, because look, I mean, once they start giving birth,
they're pretty much committed to the hospital. They're not getting out.
You can, you can hit them with the paperwork anytime.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Well, and they're kind of giving you a deposit.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yes, very much. So at the very least you'll be
able to hit him with the cleaning fee.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Yeah, I remember the m I remember the story came
out last week and I was like, oh, but it's ugly.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Yeah, breathe it out, breathe it out. Yeah, Actually, are
your patients like this?
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Adjust the black ones?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Woo, there it is, And the white intake lady just
ignores that question, just like she's ignoring the black mother
that's about to give birth in the middle of this
er intake. Now that that has been introduced into this story.
The baby was born twelve minutes later after this video
(29:16):
was taken, and the hospital worker has since been fired.
So this video went viral, and the hospital at the
center of this controversy said the individual shown in the footage.
The lady who's asking the questions and couldn't seem to
care any less for this woman is no longer employed
(29:36):
at the hospital. And this is my favorite part. New
training programs have been launched. Look, I mean, at a
certain point, there's only so much training you can do
as a hospital, and I realize that's just a cover
your ass attorney thing to have new training programs. In effect,
(29:57):
you can't make someone care about somebody else if they
just don't.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Well you you know, I've been to an emergency room
once or twice and generally, uh, if you're bleeding, uh,
have some kind of you know, spasm, uh whatever, heart attack, labor,
they generally rush you right in and attend to you
(30:25):
and then you know, you can worry about paperwork later.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
If you're there for a boo boo, then they might
you know, make you go through intake.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
But but a babe usually gets you right through.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
But you know, and it's it's funny and in this
day and age, that's got to hurt that hospital all
all around.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Oh yeah, and look, I mean Dallas Regional Medical Center
of Mesquite is not going to be high on the
list of hospitals that a number of mothers are going
to say, that's right, want to have a baby. But
you know what, not everyone gets to choose the hospital,
you know. And in this case, she actually had According
(31:10):
to the story, this mother had everything all planned out,
this is her third kid, had everything arranged with the doctor,
her due date, some of the things that they're asking her,
when your due date the eleventh, When are you having
the kid? Now? They had it all set up. Everything
was suposed to be ready to go, but she just
couldn't get to her whole birthing plan because the intake.
Lady wouldn't let her through. The hospital said in a statement,
the safety of our patients is always our top priority,
(31:33):
and we're grateful for the high quality, compassionate care teams
right every day, deeply committed honoring blah blah blah blah blah.
The individual showing in the video did not reflect our
values or uphold our standards, and it is no longer
employed at Dallas Regional Medical Center. That's not going to
stop the impending lawsuit because it's sharks smell blood in
the water and lawyers smell money in the water or
(31:55):
in this case, in the after birth.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Yeah, at the very least, they'll pay some thing just
to make it go away.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Yep, they'll settle this, without a doubt. They don't want this,
They don't want that video being played for a jury.
Days after the nurse is firing, the attorney for the
young mother spoke to NBC five. According to her legal team,
birth that the Mesquite hospital was planned. They knew she
was coming, she gave notice, she was actually on her
way in. She was in active labor. But more egregious
(32:23):
is that she actually was scheduled to be induced at
this facility. That's according to the attorney. Medical malpractice and
negligence attorney Sarah Raisch said Jones gave birth at the
hospital soon after the video was recorded, in is now
home recovering with her child. That child's college fund is
going to look very nice.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
In the meantime, let's enjoy the risk a little more
of this gem of a video. Oh, now she's on
the phone with somebody her Yeah, customer services pre pregnancies.
(33:10):
Two babies at Alon is not good. I bet you
y'all listen next time. She's not wrong about that, delivering
at this hospital.
Speaker 6 (33:25):
Your ass should have changed, aftirs.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
That's just what she wants to hear. She wants to
hear her mom telling her, I told you.
Speaker 6 (33:34):
So this This sounds like your mom, Drey. Oh yeah,
are you about to give birth on the floor of
this waiting room?
Speaker 2 (33:46):
You know what I told you? So? You shouldn't have
done this hospital.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
I told you not to have a heart attack here.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
The good news is this young this young mother has
a hell of a birthing video for her third child.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Yeah, oh it's you know.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
And nurses are in general underappreciated, like they they do
miraculous things.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
But and we don't know that this that this in turn,
in turn, Jesus, we don't know if this intake person
is a nurse. Sometimes these are just employees. They have
their job, they date. I'm the intake person. I got
to ask the questions. I don't know if if that's
a nurse or some level of nurse or not. But
(34:40):
if so, she's not a very good one. She does
seem to be a very strict intake coordinator though she
is not going to let she is not going to
let some stup, some stupid birthing mother get in the
way of her asking her questions, are you in any
pain right now?
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Yeah, there's got to be another job far more suited.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
For her, you know, waitress, Both of those, Both of
those would be much better than the job she had.
Uh And honestly, after this video, I don't think she'll
be able to get a job as an intern as
any I keep saying, in turn, as an intake person ever.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Again, not without some you know, probably change of hair.
Move move some place with low internet quality.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
And a lot fewer questions on there.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
For Yeah, this is.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
A lot better my last job. I had like thirty questions.
It was stupid. It was great for all things Treehouse.

out with us today. You can also find and follow
the show on social media at Treehouse on Air. For me,
