It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Dan O'Malley along with
Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Today inside the tree House.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
A tiger handler in Oklahoma has been killed and we
took a week off, but it's time to catch up
with Treehouse talkback.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
We will do that today as well.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
But first inside the Treehouse today, we are going to
start with one of the best clickbait headlines I have
ever seen, courtesy of the Huffington Post. Tossing could be
a potential sign of ADHD Do you do it? And
(01:44):
then the subheading this practice brings instant relief, but there
could be a dark side to it. Uh not to
speak out of turn here. But I do believe the
Huffington Post just raised the bar on headline. Now, there
is a downside to when you have a headline and
(02:06):
a sub headline this good. I know what they're doing,
and I know the actual story is not what we're
all thinking based on what they said. That's why I
said it's one of the greatest clickbait headlines I've ever seen.
But because it's so good, I don't want to read
the actual story to find out what they're actually talking about,
(02:26):
because I know what's going to let me down.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Well as someone with ADHD, I knew the headline itself
was clickbait and false.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Oh I just, I just I really hats off. All right,
let's be let down together.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Let's see how let down we are after that headline
tossing could be a bit potential sign of ADHD.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Do you do it?
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Followed up with this practice brings instant relief.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
But there could be a dark side to it.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
By Britney Wong, Thank you, Brittany or miss walk anyway,
last term sorry last summer A term went viral on
TikTok that spoke to many The doom pile, an acronym
for didn't organize, only moved. A doom pile could be
(03:34):
a junk drawer with receipts, bills, and other papers that
you've put off sorting. It could be a cardboard box
in the corner of your bedroom full of desk clutter
from your old job and other things you forgot you owned.
For many with ADHD or others who stare down doom
piles and feel overwhelmed, it's easy to default to a
less than ideal solution to all that organizational chaos. Tossing, Yes,
(03:59):
just licking holes until you forget it all exists. The
last line I threw when they're you know, to tie
it all together, that's clearly not what miss Wong said.
She said about tossing, just throwing it all away with
fingers crossed. There's nothing too important in there. See this
(04:20):
brings up the very valid point that the story was
way more interested when we all thought it was salad tossing.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Just throw it all away. This this article brought to
you by Identity Theft.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
And Dan I see I first read it. I didn't
think it was salad tossing. I thought it was tossing off.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Either way, it pulled you in.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
So are they, do you column tossers like, is that
what you would call somewhere that I think somewhere there's
a British person laughing very Oh.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Absolutely, we think it's clickbait material for us in the States.
Just imagine what the Brits are thinking when they see that.
Speaker 6 (05:10):
Whoo.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Kate Osborne is an author and ADHD advocate and educator.
She has tossed her doom pile and said she knows
plenty of others in the ADHD community who've done the
same thing. She says, it's not something that I would
brag about or say that I'm particularly proud of. Most
tossers aren't. They don't go around bragging. Is like guess
(05:32):
who's salad I tossed today? Although if they did, they
might be happier, she says. But I do know what
it's like to be so completely overwhelmed that it is
easier to say, you know what, I don't need any
of this and just throw everything away. Eyther way, that's
what I need to do with my email current I
(05:53):
have Currently, I've just let my email just run amok.
I am now up to six and forty seven unread
emails over the past three years because something happened just
about three years ago where I was like, you know what,
I don't really care about check an email anymore for
a while, And that trend has continued for the three
years since I was canned from the Eagle. Maybe I
(06:16):
should check this because I think they need help.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Yeah, I have like tens of thousands of unread emails.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
How many years is that.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
I stopped about because I get a lot of the
like you know, Choptaw and Caesar's and this and that,
so I just don't even read them. I'm like, well,
I know what that is. Yeah, so it's probably about
two or three years.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
It's silly because I used to be so diligent on
getting my number to zero because I judged negatively people
that had thousands of unread emails, like what's wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
That's so weird.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
But now I'm one of those people, and I know
that there's a quick fix to it. It's just the
one click mark all is red. But if I do that,
I'm afraid I'm gonna.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Miss something somewhere two years ago, some random unread email
that I that I didn't see that somehow I was
supposed to see if I click mark all read then
I'll never see it, even though I'm not gonna see
it anyway.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
It's completely illogical. But that's that's that's where I am.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
That that gives me just such anxiety.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Mm hmm, I get it.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I have to any any notifications on icons I I
I have to clear it.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Train needs everything at zero.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Which ironically looks a lot like a butthole.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Just get in there and clean it out.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Yeah, I just, uh, just one day, I was like,
you know what I don't I'm not reading. I don't
need to read you know, Caesar's this or that, And
and then that just kept going and I'll see somebody,
you know, an email that I recognized when I'm like,
oh I read.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
That, then you unsubscribe and stop the emails.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
I've been working on that. Yeah, I've been doing that myself.
I've been trying to unsubscribe from things, and somehow I
keep getting subscribed to more things every day.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
I'm just gonna tell you how many more emails I.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Have, send them a screenshot every day.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Look what we're up to today.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
I have had two former bosses that both had over
one hundred thousand unready emails, and it would just.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
I couldn't even look at them.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
They hand me their phone and I just, oh god, no,
I'm like, just delete the email, just like just clear
it out and then just start over. Just go to
Google and just delete all.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
It might make some people sad, but they need to
know that if you emailed Russ many years ago, I
don't think you're going to get a reply.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
If you do, be scared.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
If you do share it with USDs.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
No, he's back.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
It's okay. I know what he's gonna say.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Katie here, who is a ADHD and doom piled expert, says, inevitably,
there are some items that don't have an assigned place
in her house. She'll put that bric a brack in
a box to sort through later in the day. But
then later comes and she's run out of steam and focus.
He says, Okay, I'll just set this pin of stuff
aside and I'll go through it later. And then days
(09:37):
or weeks later, she'll go through the box. Only do
experience choice paralysis also known as analysis paralysis.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
I suffer from that.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I have a severe case of analysis paralysis.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
And she says, what should I keep?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
She'll ask herself, what if I need it, what if
it's useful later on that's when this EIGHTYHD problem transforms
into a hoarding problem. I'm just glad we're only talking
about emails because I absolutely have no problem throwing away stuff.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Oh, like.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
This is when I moved in March. This was a
big thing for me because I had boxes of stuff
that I had kept from like various jobs, old places,
just it just crap. And then but I and I
always went to, well maybe I'll use that one day whatever.
So when I moved, it was the first thing I
(10:30):
threw away so much stuff, and it was absolutely a
liberating feeling.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yeah, we did that when we sold our house in
Carrollton and bought our house in Saint Thomas and then
went and lived in the trailer for ten months while
that all, you know, kind of shook itself out. That
was a great feeling once it was done. In the
moment though, going through and deciding Okay, do I really
need this? Do I want this? I did the whole
(10:59):
Marie con thing The Little Asian Lady from Netflix, where
you asked the question, when you're holding this thing, whatever
it is could be a pot, could be a T shirt,
pair of shoes, whatever.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Does this bring me joy?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
And if the answer is not an immediate yes, you
toss it.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Are there shirts that bring you joy?
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Really well, not like joy joy, but you know like
toss shirts. No, like shirts that I like or shirts
that fit me.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Well, there are shirts.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
I'm like eh.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
And then I had to get rid of that one,
like basically like shirts and things, I went through the closet.
That part was easy if I hadn't worn it in
the ear that went by bye. Interesting that like one
pair of pants somewhere in the back of the closet.
That's like, you know, if I just lose twenty more pounds,
I'll get back into gone. If I ever lose that
(11:54):
additional twenty pounds, I'll buy.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Some new ones.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
And the good news is those won't be nearly is skinny.
That's the other reason why it's important to get rid
of clothes every so often, because you need to realize
something when it comes to clothing, especially if you bought
something that was trendy, like the super skinny jeans from
a handful of years ago. If like, they're not cool anymore,
(12:18):
so you shouldn't be wearing them.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Right, they were cool.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
A handful of years ago but not anymore. So you
either need to get rid of them or hang on
to them for twenty years when they come back around
in style again.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
There is otherwise, it's just taking up space.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
What'd you do with yours?
Speaker 8 (12:36):
Oh, they're I didn't have any.

Absolutely, Dan.
Speaker 11 (13:18):
It's a very fun time when you get to go
outside in the backyard and start putting together some ideas
for folks that you know, want to use their backyard
more and they just don't know what to do with it.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
They thought they.
Speaker 11 (13:29):
You know, it was really cool when they went to
some friend's house and they have, you know, a nice
extended patio and it's got to cover on it and
they're able to go out there and watch TV and
they have a little beer cooler on it, all those things.
And so when we come out and say, yeah, all
that's possible, let's let's make a design. Let's show you
what's visible. We show you some photos of previous projects.
We can measure out what's your you know, expectations of
(13:50):
how much of the backyard you want to utilize for this,
and so that's all important stuff. And then on top
of that, right now, we're going to be running a
promotion that everybody that calls us, how's us come out
do an estimate, show them what they could be having.
They're going to get into a promotion, and at the
end of the promotion, we're gonna be giving away a
big green egg, so.

on Air dot com.
Speaker 2 (14:50):

Speaker 12 (15:29):
It is.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Talkback day inside the Tree so we'll get to that,
but first we have to talk about a tiger mauling
in Oklahoma, more specifically the one at Growler Pines Tiger
Preserve in Hugo, Oklahoma. A tiger handler was fatally mulled
(15:55):
at an Oklahoma preserve. Tiger handler Ryan Easley was fatally
mauled in an accident involving a tiger. I'm going to
stop right there. A tiger mulling someone is not an accident.
That's what a tiger does.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Now.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
If he was feeding the tiger and a plane fell
out of the sky and landed on him, that would
be an accident. If a meteor hit him, that might
be right.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Maybe not so much an accident, that's just really bad luck.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
If a school bus drove off somehow the brakes went
out and it ran him over inside the tiger preserve,
that could be justified as an accident. A tiger eating
a person is not an accident.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
That's quite intentional.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Him's hungry.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Yeah, sorry to be so blunket about this, but it's
just how I feel, and I'm pretty sure it's just biology.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
If you're playing I got your nose with a tiger,
they're going to win.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
I got your hand.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
And that is not an accident anyway.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Tiger handler Ryan Easley was fatally mauled in an intentional
incident involving a tiger that he cared for at an
Oklahoma Preserve. That's according to the wild the Wildlife Refuge.
The attack occurred Saturday at Growler Pines Tiger Preserve in Hugo, Oklahoma.
The statement says, this tragedy is a painful reminder.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Wow, for him or for you? I think more so
for him.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Yeah, yeah, this tragedy is a painful reminder of both
the beauty and unpredictability of the natural world. Ryan understood
those risks not out of recklessness, but out of love.
The animals under his care were not just animals to him,
but beings. He formed a connection with one rooted in respect,
(18:05):
daily care, and love. This is a great example of
why relationships need to be a two way street, because
in his mind he loved that animal, he cared for it.
In the tiger's mind, he looked like a steak.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
I was gonna say, it's like the old cartoon thing
where it turns into a hot.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Dog fresh fresh off the roller. Yeah, hot dog in
a while. In reality, it's like you're in there, You're
trying to care for this animal, and in the animal's eyes,
it just walked into a quick trip at fresh hot
dog or clock.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
Uh no, this is uh is was he trained to
take care of this animal?
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Did he have any wildlife expertise?
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Well, he worked there for a long time.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I don't know what type of certification process the state
of Oklahoma has and care for, you know, murder kiddies.
Speaker 5 (19:03):
Yeah, I don't think they have any. I don't know
if you saw tiger, that's.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Kind of where I'm going.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I don't think you have to have a certain amount
of training. I just think you have to be willing.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (19:15):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (19:16):
You know any job where they make you sign a
waiver before you before you go in, I'm not doing Yeah,
we don't. We don't accept any responsibility and all the
liabilities on you.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
No, I'll pass.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah uh.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
The Preserve remembered him as a passionate advocate for wildlife
conservation who especially loved big cats and dedicated his life
to the care of animals. And well, you know what,
maybe it's unfair for us to say that cats didn't
love him back. Maybe they just had a different way
of showing it.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
Yeah, big hug mm hmmm.
Speaker 9 (19:54):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
The statement also said from the Preserve, his courage, compassion,
and unwavering commitment to old life will never be forgotten.
Do you think it was in wavering all the way
to the bitter end? Or did he have some regrets
those last moments.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
I think when he saw the cat, like the Paul
go back and he's like, ah, I.
Speaker 4 (20:19):
Don't got your nose. I don't got your nose.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I think he was saying, no regrets.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
You sure about that? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
The center has canceled all tours and animal encounters until
further notice.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
I wonder if there was a tour there, Like there
was just a bunch of school kids on a field trip,
just staying and it's like, oh, and this is so
and so the cat, and that is the trainer. I
don't remember the guy's name now, but that's the trainer, right.
It was Ryan, Right, this is a This is a trainer, Ryan, Say, hi,
trainer Ryan, like all the kids like hine.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
All right, today kids, we're getting an important Yeah. Today, kids,
we're getting an important lesson in the circle of life.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
The human body has eight pints of blood.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Let's count them as as they are ejected from his
is terrible.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
I feel bad for the I feel bad for the
guy's family.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Is just you know, but I just wonder if they'll
put like a little cross or something where that the
tiger digs a hole and craps them.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Out plant a tree there. It's well fertilized.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
That is so terrible.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Just like just like a little memorial inside the cage,
like here was Ryan.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Some of Ryan's under your shoe.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Damn it, Man, it's wet.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
God, damn it Ryan. Anytime I get shipped on my shoe,
I'm and to say that damn.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
It ryot Oh No, that that is now forever imprinted
on me. Anytime if I step on a turn somewhere,
I'm gonna gonna say damn it.

(24:56):
is time for tree House talkpack. It's been a couple
of weeks trying to catch up still on some of
the messages. Some of these are going to be a
couple of weeks. Oh, but we'll power through all of them.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
So here we go tree House Talk Back.
Speaker 15 (25:13):
Hey guys, longtime listener. Been enjoying RMS since the Kynng
days and I'm glad you guys are keeping it going.
I appreciate it. Thanks for me making my days, my mornings,
my evenings anytime I'm in the car, Brider, I appreciate you, guys.
And to Trey Key's mine moist to Cunt.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I don't know German.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
I think that could be German, and if it is,
I think that's pretty easy to translate. But I don't know,
Trey Raj, either of you speak German or whatever that
language was.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
M I know, but I know what.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
It said, and I'm honestly not sure whether to be
proud or offended.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
You know what. I think it's okay to be both.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
I mean he said it with such pep and enthusiasm.
I don't think he meant it as a slam, or
at least not necessarily in a you know, horrifically negative weight.
Just more of a lighthearted negative weight perhaps.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
No, if he really meant it in a bad way,
he needs to work on his delivery of the C word. Yeah,
I'll offer tutorials.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Yeah he was, he was, there was there was happiness
in his voice. Yeah, I don't think it was meant
to be.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
But still, congratulations Trey. And now you know what, And
now you know what that word is in German. Not
that I'm surprised it's any different.
Speaker 4 (26:51):
I think they invented it.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
It does sound like a German word.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Yeah, hey, guys.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
Last week a listener mentioned playing football in a pasture.
You guys talked about it for a bit. I can
do that one better. Back when we were kids, me
and my brother, my cousins. We used to play baseball
in my grandparents pasture down in Brenham, and we used
to use cow patties, dried up cow patties as basses.
And I did not hear the bloody mentioned cow patties.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
So there you go.
Speaker 6 (27:23):
Also, Raj, you mentioned Greece too.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Okay, before he gets into that. The thing I'm curious
about with cow patty baseball is do you look around
the pasture for four cow patties in a diamond enough
to just use the pre existing cow patties or do
you need to pick up the cow patties and position
(27:46):
them in a diamond configuration so you can then use
them for baseball?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Now you pick them up because once they hit, once
they've dried out, they they're very frisbeeish.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
Oh no, I know, I'm just I just don't like
picking them up how they are.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
And no, I know what it is.
Speaker 6 (28:08):
Damn it, Ryan, I want to go on record.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
So now let's get into the controversial part of Ryan's call.
Speaker 6 (28:17):
Also, Raj, you mentioned Greece too. I want to go
on record and uh to the masses that Grease Too
is a far better movie than Greece. I will fight
the Michelle.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Okay, that is not a hill.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
I expected you to die on Trey.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Sorry, that one was directed towards you.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
I know.
Speaker 5 (28:41):
All I'm saying is here's how my head works, right,
I'm just thinking, like when he when he ends that call,
he just leans back in his chair, and there's just
posters of Adrian's MED everywhere.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
And let's be honest, he wouldn't be the only one.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
There's Adrians med tied to it there somewhere. I told
you you.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Look, both things can be true.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
You can have a room full of posters of Adrian's
MED and a shrine dedicated to Adrians Med, and have
Adrians Med tied up in the same room. I think
that's really fitting.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
In his Burger king uniform.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Like now that is a flame girl, that is a
that is a flame girled employee.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Or he's he's some kind of I got an odd
obsession with the guy who played Shooter McGavin. I think
his name is Christopher McDonald.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Yep, I believe that's that's right, or very close.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah, he was. He was in the movie too.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
So well.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I think I think he's claiming here that he has
a different love in the.
Speaker 6 (29:54):
Better movie than Greece. I will fight that hill. I mean,
you have Michelle Feiffer dancing around in those black pants,
grinding on that ladder, singing cool rider in Greece does
not have that. So I also think that Major League three,
Back to the Minors is better. Is the best one
of the bunch?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Most people, mother fuck, you gotta be kidding me, Dan,
congratulations you you're relieved of your you know, title as
music in movie history.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Oh my god, that is really really really awful though,
And you know what, you know what the worst thing
is about his opinion is it has me second guessing
because I've seen Major League three, of course, and now
I'm wondering, way is it possibly better than the other two?
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Maybe I need to rewatch it?
Speaker 1 (30:40):
But there's no way, there's no way, right, I want
to know this assholes? You know what? He gets a
caddy shot too.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, that is Ah, that's a great example.
Speaker 6 (30:55):
Better is the best one of the bunch. Most people
don't even know that there is a Major League three.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Starring Scott Bacula, by the way, Oh between between rolls
in Quantum Leap and so after Quantum Leap and before
ncis Scott Bacula.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
Yeah, that's a thirty year gap, by the way, Yeah
it's a big gap.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
It's a big gap.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
But in there that gap was partially filled by Major
League three.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
Back to the.
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Miners quick question, So regarding the movies, is there a
controversial sequel or take on a sequel you think is
better than the original? Like my Grease Too?
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Anyway?
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I will say, briefly, let me, let me finish, take
care of guys, have a go on, all right. I
will say he is not the only person that feels
Grease Too is better than Grease one. I don't know
how or why, but that popped up on my Instagram
feed a couple of days ago, someone else talking about
how they think Grease two is better than Grease one.
I've not seen either enough to know to pass judgment
(32:02):
either way. I'm going to assume though, that the first
was probably better, although the second it is really hard
to top. Michelle Pfeiffer and Atrian's admit. But as far
as a controversial sequel better than the original, I don't
think I can think of one. I mean, outside of
(32:23):
the standard ones that everyone pretty much accepts that Empire
Strikes Back was better than a New Hope Godfather to
a lot of people think, and a lot of people
agree was better than Godfather one. Aliens might be better
than Alien. So, I mean, there's lots of those examples
that the second was better than the first, But I
(32:45):
can't think of a controversial one that I feel that
way unless they do a Jim Kotta two.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
So I'll keep an open mind.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
What do we think was better the first Top Gun
or a Top Gun.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Maverick first one? I think so first one.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Yeah, I mean both excellent. Yeah, at a certain point,
when there's so much time in between them, I don't like.
I mean, I I know Maverick it's a sequel, but.
Speaker 4 (33:22):
I just think it.
Speaker 5 (33:23):
I just think it had more, like you know, it
was more. It's updated now and it had its more
oomph and a little more tear drip drinking scenes and.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
There's not there's there was nothing more tear jerking than
Goose dying on the first one. There was nothing in
Top Gun Maverick that was nearly as tea as tear
jerkery than that.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
When he's like thank you Ice for everything, He's like, oh,
come on, He's like, who's the better pilot me or you,
and he's like, this is a nice moment, let's not
ruin it. And they give each other that hug and
then it cuts to the picture.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
That is sweet and it was and it was.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
It was uh funny and sincere and it was beautiful.
It was a beautiful thing. But no, I bet that
I'm not gonna say that Tom conks.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
Rooster at the end. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
I'm just he wanted to see, you know, a little
controversial debate. That was the worst thing that popped in
my head because I watched both of them yesterday.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
Oh nice, and I find that I finally watched Superman.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Oh the new one, what do you think?
Speaker 4 (34:21):
Fantastic?
Speaker 3 (34:23):
A lot of fun, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I give it credit for doing something that a Superman
movie hadn't done in a long time. And that's actually
highlight one of the things that Superman is all about,
which is being a good dude.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
I mean, let's be let's be honest.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
He is a albeit an alien. He was raised in
yokel Kansas, So yeah, Smallville, what the hey, dude, I
think that was one of his first lines. Yeah, but
at the end, at the end, he's still a punk rocker,
(34:59):
uh tray any controversial sequel takes.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
No, I've I mean most of them suck. That's uh,
I'm trying to Yeah, Like it's.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
Like I'm racking my brain trying to think of all
the movies I've seen and thinking the ones that have
had sequels, and I can't think of a controversial one
to say the sequel was better Iron Eagle too, it
was definitely not better than Iron Eagle one.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
I mean, i'll give you a good The Lord of
the Rings trilogy, each one is better than the previous,
like it it crescendoed. But I also that's not really
to me a sequel. Those are just I mean, there
were books but telling the same tale.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Just that was one big story, yes that that just
had to be broken up into chunks.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
So I'm with you.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
It's like kind of sequel but not really like to me, like,
if you thought Taken two was better than Taken one,
you're an ass hat and you're insane. But Take that
is a like the first one was beginning, middle end story, done,
movie over.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
You don't need a whole franchise.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
So but the second one pure sequel. It's not like
there was a whole taken story that needed to be told.
Speaker 5 (36:17):
Like Tolkien, I think Young Guns two was better than
Young Guns one.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Ooh, I'd agree with that one. And that's not controversial.
That's another great example, Matt. We can't think of one.
Oh well, let's move on.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 16 (36:33):

It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh
with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Dan O'Malley along with
Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Today inside the tree House.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
A tiger handler in Oklahoma has been killed and we
took a week off, but it's time to catch up
with Treehouse talkback.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
We will do that today as well.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
But first inside the Treehouse today, we are going to
start with one of the best clickbait headlines I have
ever seen, courtesy of the Huffington Post. Tossing could be
a potential sign of ADHD Do you do it? And
(01:44):
then the subheading this practice brings instant relief, but there
could be a dark side to it. Uh not to
speak out of turn here. But I do believe the
Huffington Post just raised the bar on headline. Now, there
is a downside to when you have a headline and
(02:06):
a sub headline this good. I know what they're doing,
and I know the actual story is not what we're
all thinking based on what they said. That's why I
said it's one of the greatest clickbait headlines I've ever seen.
But because it's so good, I don't want to read
the actual story to find out what they're actually talking about,
(02:26):
because I know what's going to let me down.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Well as someone with ADHD, I knew the headline itself
was clickbait and false.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Oh I just, I just I really hats off. All right,
let's be let down together.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Let's see how let down we are after that headline
tossing could be a bit potential sign of ADHD.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Do you do it?
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Followed up with this practice brings instant relief.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
But there could be a dark side to it.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
By Britney Wong, Thank you, Brittany or miss walk anyway,
last term sorry last summer A term went viral on
TikTok that spoke to many The doom pile, an acronym
for didn't organize, only moved. A doom pile could be
(03:34):
a junk drawer with receipts, bills, and other papers that
you've put off sorting. It could be a cardboard box
in the corner of your bedroom full of desk clutter
from your old job and other things you forgot you owned.
For many with ADHD or others who stare down doom
piles and feel overwhelmed, it's easy to default to a
less than ideal solution to all that organizational chaos. Tossing, Yes,
(03:59):
just licking holes until you forget it all exists. The
last line I threw when they're you know, to tie
it all together, that's clearly not what miss Wong said.
She said about tossing, just throwing it all away with
fingers crossed. There's nothing too important in there. See this
(04:20):
brings up the very valid point that the story was
way more interested when we all thought it was salad tossing.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Just throw it all away. This this article brought to
you by Identity Theft.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
And Dan I see I first read it. I didn't
think it was salad tossing. I thought it was tossing off.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Either way, it pulled you in.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
So are they, do you column tossers like, is that
what you would call somewhere that I think somewhere there's
a British person laughing very Oh.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Absolutely, we think it's clickbait material for us in the States.
Just imagine what the Brits are thinking when they see that.
Speaker 6 (05:10):
Whoo.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Kate Osborne is an author and ADHD advocate and educator.
She has tossed her doom pile and said she knows
plenty of others in the ADHD community who've done the
same thing. She says, it's not something that I would
brag about or say that I'm particularly proud of. Most
tossers aren't. They don't go around bragging. Is like guess
(05:32):
who's salad I tossed today? Although if they did, they
might be happier, she says. But I do know what
it's like to be so completely overwhelmed that it is
easier to say, you know what, I don't need any
of this and just throw everything away. Eyther way, that's
what I need to do with my email current I
(05:53):
have Currently, I've just let my email just run amok.
I am now up to six and forty seven unread
emails over the past three years because something happened just
about three years ago where I was like, you know what,
I don't really care about check an email anymore for
a while, And that trend has continued for the three
years since I was canned from the Eagle. Maybe I
(06:16):
should check this because I think they need help.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Yeah, I have like tens of thousands of unread emails.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
How many years is that.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
I stopped about because I get a lot of the
like you know, Choptaw and Caesar's and this and that,
so I just don't even read them. I'm like, well,
I know what that is. Yeah, so it's probably about
two or three years.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
It's silly because I used to be so diligent on
getting my number to zero because I judged negatively people
that had thousands of unread emails, like what's wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
That's so weird.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
But now I'm one of those people, and I know
that there's a quick fix to it. It's just the
one click mark all is red. But if I do that,
I'm afraid I'm gonna.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Miss something somewhere two years ago, some random unread email
that I that I didn't see that somehow I was
supposed to see if I click mark all read then
I'll never see it, even though I'm not gonna see
it anyway.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
It's completely illogical. But that's that's that's where I am.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
That that gives me just such anxiety.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Mm hmm, I get it.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I have to any any notifications on icons I I
I have to clear it.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Train needs everything at zero.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Which ironically looks a lot like a butthole.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Just get in there and clean it out.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Yeah, I just, uh, just one day, I was like,
you know what I don't I'm not reading. I don't
need to read you know, Caesar's this or that, And
and then that just kept going and I'll see somebody,
you know, an email that I recognized when I'm like,
oh I read.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
That, then you unsubscribe and stop the emails.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
I've been working on that. Yeah, I've been doing that myself.
I've been trying to unsubscribe from things, and somehow I
keep getting subscribed to more things every day.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
I'm just gonna tell you how many more emails I.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Have, send them a screenshot every day.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Look what we're up to today.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
I have had two former bosses that both had over
one hundred thousand unready emails, and it would just.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
I couldn't even look at them.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
They hand me their phone and I just, oh god, no,
I'm like, just delete the email, just like just clear
it out and then just start over. Just go to
Google and just delete all.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
It might make some people sad, but they need to
know that if you emailed Russ many years ago, I
don't think you're going to get a reply.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
If you do, be scared.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
If you do share it with USDs.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
No, he's back.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
It's okay. I know what he's gonna say.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Katie here, who is a ADHD and doom piled expert, says, inevitably,
there are some items that don't have an assigned place
in her house. She'll put that bric a brack in
a box to sort through later in the day. But
then later comes and she's run out of steam and focus.
He says, Okay, I'll just set this pin of stuff
aside and I'll go through it later. And then days
(09:37):
or weeks later, she'll go through the box. Only do
experience choice paralysis also known as analysis paralysis.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
I suffer from that.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I have a severe case of analysis paralysis.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
And she says, what should I keep?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
She'll ask herself, what if I need it, what if
it's useful later on that's when this EIGHTYHD problem transforms
into a hoarding problem. I'm just glad we're only talking
about emails because I absolutely have no problem throwing away stuff.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Oh, like.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
This is when I moved in March. This was a
big thing for me because I had boxes of stuff
that I had kept from like various jobs, old places,
just it just crap. And then but I and I
always went to, well maybe I'll use that one day whatever.
So when I moved, it was the first thing I
(10:30):
threw away so much stuff, and it was absolutely a
liberating feeling.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yeah, we did that when we sold our house in
Carrollton and bought our house in Saint Thomas and then
went and lived in the trailer for ten months while
that all, you know, kind of shook itself out. That
was a great feeling once it was done. In the
moment though, going through and deciding Okay, do I really
need this? Do I want this? I did the whole
(10:59):
Marie con thing The Little Asian Lady from Netflix, where
you asked the question, when you're holding this thing, whatever
it is could be a pot, could be a T shirt,
pair of shoes, whatever.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Does this bring me joy?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
And if the answer is not an immediate yes, you
toss it.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Are there shirts that bring you joy?
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Really well, not like joy joy, but you know like
toss shirts. No, like shirts that I like or shirts
that fit me.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Well, there are shirts.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
I'm like eh.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
And then I had to get rid of that one,
like basically like shirts and things, I went through the closet.
That part was easy if I hadn't worn it in
the ear that went by bye. Interesting that like one
pair of pants somewhere in the back of the closet.
That's like, you know, if I just lose twenty more pounds,
I'll get back into gone. If I ever lose that
(11:54):
additional twenty pounds, I'll buy.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Some new ones.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
And the good news is those won't be nearly is skinny.
That's the other reason why it's important to get rid
of clothes every so often, because you need to realize
something when it comes to clothing, especially if you bought
something that was trendy, like the super skinny jeans from
a handful of years ago. If like, they're not cool anymore,
(12:18):
so you shouldn't be wearing them.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Right, they were cool.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
A handful of years ago but not anymore. So you
either need to get rid of them or hang on
to them for twenty years when they come back around
in style again.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
There is otherwise, it's just taking up space.

Speaker 12 (15:29):
It is.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Talkback day inside the Tree so we'll get to that,
but first we have to talk about a tiger mauling
in Oklahoma, more specifically the one at Growler Pines Tiger
Preserve in Hugo, Oklahoma. A tiger handler was fatally mulled
(15:55):
at an Oklahoma preserve. Tiger handler Ryan Easley was fatally
mauled in an accident involving a tiger. I'm going to
stop right there. A tiger mulling someone is not an accident.
That's what a tiger does.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Now.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
If he was feeding the tiger and a plane fell
out of the sky and landed on him, that would
be an accident. If a meteor hit him, that might
be right.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Maybe not so much an accident, that's just really bad luck.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
If a school bus drove off somehow the brakes went
out and it ran him over inside the tiger preserve,
that could be justified as an accident. A tiger eating
a person is not an accident.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
That's quite intentional.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Him's hungry.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Yeah, sorry to be so blunket about this, but it's
just how I feel, and I'm pretty sure it's just biology.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
If you're playing I got your nose with a tiger,
they're going to win.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
I got your hand.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
And that is not an accident anyway.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Tiger handler Ryan Easley was fatally mauled in an intentional
incident involving a tiger that he cared for at an
Oklahoma Preserve. That's according to the wild the Wildlife Refuge.
The attack occurred Saturday at Growler Pines Tiger Preserve in Hugo, Oklahoma.
The statement says, this tragedy is a painful reminder.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Wow, for him or for you? I think more so
for him.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Yeah, yeah, this tragedy is a painful reminder of both
the beauty and unpredictability of the natural world. Ryan understood
those risks not out of recklessness, but out of love.
The animals under his care were not just animals to him,
but beings. He formed a connection with one rooted in respect,
(18:05):
daily care, and love. This is a great example of
why relationships need to be a two way street, because
in his mind he loved that animal, he cared for it.
In the tiger's mind, he looked like a steak.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
I was gonna say, it's like the old cartoon thing
where it turns into a hot.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Dog fresh fresh off the roller. Yeah, hot dog in
a while. In reality, it's like you're in there, You're
trying to care for this animal, and in the animal's eyes,
it just walked into a quick trip at fresh hot
dog or clock.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
Uh no, this is uh is was he trained to
take care of this animal?
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Did he have any wildlife expertise?
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Well, he worked there for a long time.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I don't know what type of certification process the state
of Oklahoma has and care for, you know, murder kiddies.
Speaker 5 (19:03):
Yeah, I don't think they have any. I don't know
if you saw tiger, that's.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Kind of where I'm going.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I don't think you have to have a certain amount
of training. I just think you have to be willing.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (19:15):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (19:16):
You know any job where they make you sign a
waiver before you before you go in, I'm not doing Yeah,
we don't. We don't accept any responsibility and all the
liabilities on you.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
No, I'll pass.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah uh.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
The Preserve remembered him as a passionate advocate for wildlife
conservation who especially loved big cats and dedicated his life
to the care of animals. And well, you know what,
maybe it's unfair for us to say that cats didn't
love him back. Maybe they just had a different way
of showing it.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
Yeah, big hug mm hmmm.
Speaker 9 (19:54):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
The statement also said from the Preserve, his courage, compassion,
and unwavering commitment to old life will never be forgotten.
Do you think it was in wavering all the way
to the bitter end? Or did he have some regrets
those last moments.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
I think when he saw the cat, like the Paul
go back and he's like, ah, I.
Speaker 4 (20:19):
Don't got your nose. I don't got your nose.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I think he was saying, no regrets.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
You sure about that? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
The center has canceled all tours and animal encounters until
further notice.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
I wonder if there was a tour there, Like there
was just a bunch of school kids on a field trip,
just staying and it's like, oh, and this is so
and so the cat, and that is the trainer. I
don't remember the guy's name now, but that's the trainer, right.
It was Ryan, Right, this is a This is a trainer, Ryan, Say, hi,
trainer Ryan, like all the kids like hine.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
All right, today kids, we're getting an important Yeah. Today, kids,
we're getting an important lesson in the circle of life.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
The human body has eight pints of blood.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Let's count them as as they are ejected from his
is terrible.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
I feel bad for the I feel bad for the
guy's family.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Is just you know, but I just wonder if they'll
put like a little cross or something where that the
tiger digs a hole and craps them.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Out plant a tree there. It's well fertilized.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
That is so terrible.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Just like just like a little memorial inside the cage,
like here was Ryan.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Some of Ryan's under your shoe.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Damn it, Man, it's wet.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
God, damn it Ryan. Anytime I get shipped on my shoe,
I'm and to say that damn.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
It ryot Oh No, that that is now forever imprinted
on me. Anytime if I step on a turn somewhere,
I'm gonna gonna say damn it.
Speaker 14 (22:16):
Right, Yeah, I had I had a damn it Ryan
moment the other day.

So here we go tree House Talk Back.
Speaker 15 (25:13):
Hey guys, longtime listener. Been enjoying RMS since the Kynng
days and I'm glad you guys are keeping it going.
I appreciate it. Thanks for me making my days, my mornings,
my evenings anytime I'm in the car, Brider, I appreciate you, guys.
And to Trey Key's mine moist to Cunt.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I don't know German.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
I think that could be German, and if it is,
I think that's pretty easy to translate. But I don't know,
Trey Raj, either of you speak German or whatever that
language was.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
M I know, but I know what.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
It said, and I'm honestly not sure whether to be
proud or offended.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
You know what. I think it's okay to be both.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
I mean he said it with such pep and enthusiasm.
I don't think he meant it as a slam, or
at least not necessarily in a you know, horrifically negative weight.
Just more of a lighthearted negative weight perhaps.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
No, if he really meant it in a bad way,
he needs to work on his delivery of the C word. Yeah,
I'll offer tutorials.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Yeah he was, he was, there was there was happiness
in his voice. Yeah, I don't think it was meant
to be.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
But still, congratulations Trey. And now you know what, And
now you know what that word is in German. Not
that I'm surprised it's any different.
Speaker 4 (26:51):
I think they invented it.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
It does sound like a German word.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Yeah, hey, guys.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
Last week a listener mentioned playing football in a pasture.
You guys talked about it for a bit. I can
do that one better. Back when we were kids, me
and my brother, my cousins. We used to play baseball
in my grandparents pasture down in Brenham, and we used
to use cow patties, dried up cow patties as basses.
And I did not hear the bloody mentioned cow patties.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
So there you go.
Speaker 6 (27:23):
Also, Raj, you mentioned Greece too.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Okay, before he gets into that. The thing I'm curious
about with cow patty baseball is do you look around
the pasture for four cow patties in a diamond enough
to just use the pre existing cow patties or do
you need to pick up the cow patties and position
(27:46):
them in a diamond configuration so you can then use
them for baseball?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Now you pick them up because once they hit, once
they've dried out, they they're very frisbeeish.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
Oh no, I know, I'm just I just don't like
picking them up how they are.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
And no, I know what it is.
Speaker 6 (28:08):
Damn it, Ryan, I want to go on record.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
So now let's get into the controversial part of Ryan's call.
Speaker 6 (28:17):
Also, Raj, you mentioned Greece too. I want to go
on record and uh to the masses that Grease Too
is a far better movie than Greece. I will fight
the Michelle.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Okay, that is not a hill.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
I expected you to die on Trey.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Sorry, that one was directed towards you.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
I know.
Speaker 5 (28:41):
All I'm saying is here's how my head works, right,
I'm just thinking, like when he when he ends that call,
he just leans back in his chair, and there's just
posters of Adrian's MED everywhere.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
And let's be honest, he wouldn't be the only one.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
There's Adrians med tied to it there somewhere. I told
you you.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Look, both things can be true.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
You can have a room full of posters of Adrian's
MED and a shrine dedicated to Adrians Med, and have
Adrians Med tied up in the same room. I think
that's really fitting.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
In his Burger king uniform.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Like now that is a flame girl, that is a
that is a flame girled employee.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Or he's he's some kind of I got an odd
obsession with the guy who played Shooter McGavin. I think
his name is Christopher McDonald.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Yep, I believe that's that's right, or very close.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah, he was. He was in the movie too.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
So well.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I think I think he's claiming here that he has
a different love in the.
Speaker 6 (29:54):
Better movie than Greece. I will fight that hill. I mean,
you have Michelle Feiffer dancing around in those black pants,
grinding on that ladder, singing cool rider in Greece does
not have that. So I also think that Major League three,
Back to the Minors is better. Is the best one
of the bunch?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Most people, mother fuck, you gotta be kidding me, Dan,
congratulations you you're relieved of your you know, title as
music in movie history.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Oh my god, that is really really really awful though,
And you know what, you know what the worst thing
is about his opinion is it has me second guessing
because I've seen Major League three, of course, and now
I'm wondering, way is it possibly better than the other two?
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Maybe I need to rewatch it?
Speaker 1 (30:40):
But there's no way, there's no way, right, I want
to know this assholes? You know what? He gets a
caddy shot too.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, that is Ah, that's a great example.
Speaker 6 (30:55):
Better is the best one of the bunch. Most people
don't even know that there is a Major League three.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Starring Scott Bacula, by the way, Oh between between rolls
in Quantum Leap and so after Quantum Leap and before
ncis Scott Bacula.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
Yeah, that's a thirty year gap, by the way, Yeah
it's a big gap.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
It's a big gap.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
But in there that gap was partially filled by Major
League three.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
Back to the.
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Miners quick question, So regarding the movies, is there a
controversial sequel or take on a sequel you think is
better than the original? Like my Grease Too?
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Anyway?
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I will say, briefly, let me, let me finish, take
care of guys, have a go on, all right. I
will say he is not the only person that feels
Grease Too is better than Grease one. I don't know
how or why, but that popped up on my Instagram
feed a couple of days ago, someone else talking about
how they think Grease two is better than Grease one.
I've not seen either enough to know to pass judgment
(32:02):
either way. I'm going to assume though, that the first
was probably better, although the second it is really hard
to top. Michelle Pfeiffer and Atrian's admit. But as far
as a controversial sequel better than the original, I don't
think I can think of one. I mean, outside of
(32:23):
the standard ones that everyone pretty much accepts that Empire
Strikes Back was better than a New Hope Godfather to
a lot of people think, and a lot of people
agree was better than Godfather one. Aliens might be better
than Alien. So, I mean, there's lots of those examples
that the second was better than the first, But I
(32:45):
can't think of a controversial one that I feel that
way unless they do a Jim Kotta two.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
So I'll keep an open mind.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
What do we think was better the first Top Gun
or a Top Gun.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Maverick first one? I think so first one.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Yeah, I mean both excellent. Yeah, at a certain point,
when there's so much time in between them, I don't like.
I mean, I I know Maverick it's a sequel, but.
Speaker 4 (33:22):
I just think it.
Speaker 5 (33:23):
I just think it had more, like you know, it
was more. It's updated now and it had its more
oomph and a little more tear drip drinking scenes and.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
There's not there's there was nothing more tear jerking than
Goose dying on the first one. There was nothing in
Top Gun Maverick that was nearly as tea as tear
jerkery than that.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
When he's like thank you Ice for everything, He's like, oh,
come on, He's like, who's the better pilot me or you,
and he's like, this is a nice moment, let's not
ruin it. And they give each other that hug and
then it cuts to the picture.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
That is sweet and it was and it was.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
It was uh funny and sincere and it was beautiful.
It was a beautiful thing. But no, I bet that
I'm not gonna say that Tom conks.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
Rooster at the end. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
I'm just he wanted to see, you know, a little
controversial debate. That was the worst thing that popped in
my head because I watched both of them yesterday.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
Oh nice, and I find that I finally watched Superman.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Oh the new one, what do you think?
Speaker 4 (34:21):
Fantastic?
Speaker 3 (34:23):
A lot of fun, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I give it credit for doing something that a Superman
movie hadn't done in a long time. And that's actually
highlight one of the things that Superman is all about,
which is being a good dude.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
I mean, let's be let's be honest.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
He is a albeit an alien. He was raised in
yokel Kansas, So yeah, Smallville, what the hey, dude, I
think that was one of his first lines. Yeah, but
at the end, at the end, he's still a punk rocker,
(34:59):
uh tray any controversial sequel takes.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
No, I've I mean most of them suck. That's uh,
I'm trying to Yeah, Like it's.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
Like I'm racking my brain trying to think of all
the movies I've seen and thinking the ones that have
had sequels, and I can't think of a controversial one
to say the sequel was better Iron Eagle too, it
was definitely not better than Iron Eagle one.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
I mean, i'll give you a good The Lord of
the Rings trilogy, each one is better than the previous,
like it it crescendoed. But I also that's not really
to me a sequel. Those are just I mean, there
were books but telling the same tale.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Just that was one big story, yes that that just
had to be broken up into chunks.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
So I'm with you.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
It's like kind of sequel but not really like to me, like,
if you thought Taken two was better than Taken one,
you're an ass hat and you're insane. But Take that
is a like the first one was beginning, middle end story, done,
movie over.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
You don't need a whole franchise.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
So but the second one pure sequel. It's not like
there was a whole taken story that needed to be told.
Speaker 5 (36:17):
Like Tolkien, I think Young Guns two was better than
Young Guns one.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Ooh, I'd agree with that one. And that's not controversial.
That's another great example, Matt. We can't think of one.
Oh well, let's move on.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 16 (36:33):
On Friday show, the news story about burning Man's orgy dome,
Trey made the comment about it's a family affair and
there was a TV show back in the sixties by
that title, and today would be a whole different thing.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Yeah, here wrong.
Speaker 17 (36:55):
Hey, guys, Thursday show was so good. There's so many
things I could comment, but I'm only going to comment
