Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:15):
That's right, ladies and gentlemen, it's that time again. It
seems like we did this yesterday. Really doesn't it have
a little green dot? Right? So, but anyway, it's that
time again for drinks with Ddie and John. That's me.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
We're back in Madison.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
We are We're back in we are in Madison. We
are home. It's a little hot in here right now.
Aren't you hot? Wearing all that no, I feel good.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Hat? And John's been like lifting again.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
I don't know that I can. I mean, I'm trying
to compete with the hat. I don't think I can
wear the hat. I think it's too hot.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
It is a warm hat.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
It is it's like when I wore this, wear this
in New York. It's it's again. It's kind of winter hat.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Wait a minute, on the floor, that's.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Okay, don't need a hat. My hat is.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
These are one of those No, these are one of no.
One of those hats. Those those guys who've never played
a saxophone or seen one in person. Where so that
look cool? Right?

Speaker 2 (01:17):
I get it. You're yeah, they're trying.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
No, they're trying. Yeah, you can tries too hard. That's
what we call that hat. What is up with this
brush stuff? Anyway? Bar says that all the time. Bro,
what's up?

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Bro?

Speaker 1 (01:34):
What is that? What does that even mean? I'm not
your bront even get too bro.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
I know it used to be. Hey Bro, now it's Bra.
We're so happy to be back in Madison. I'm back
with all my fun hats.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Yes, and we drove my birthday car back here. Birthday month, honey,
thank you. Happy birthday month. Yep. Uh got the most beautif.
I think we showed your pictures of it last week.
But in case we didn't, did we? I think we
I don't think we told people.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, probably, I don't think we did.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
I got a beautiful blue Ford Raptor. It's a bad boy.
I haven't named him yet. Well, can't be old blue.
That's the uh, that's the motor home name. But it's
exactly the color match of the motor home, which is
really cool. And I don't know if you did that
on purpose.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Or if that was just like I think it just
worked out that way, okay, because at first I thought, well,
let's go for orange, and I'm like, you know that
matches the motor home. It's really a pretty blue and
it just wasn't meant to be.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
So yeah, the orange, orange stanky baby. I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
I'm so glad you love your I do.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
I love it. I love it. It's uh, it's I
YouTube the video. Is that what you say? I guess
I looked at a YouTube video anyway yesterday because it's
got lots of buttons, lots of bells and whistles it.
It's got a lot of new cars have this one
thing that drives me crazy. So I had to learn
how to turn it off. And it's a like lane assist,

(03:08):
which kind of if you're if you're talking and or
if you're for some reason not paying attention and you
creep out of your lane. Every car i've seen it
doesn't like nudgs you back and it goes pulls you
back into the lane, which makes you overcorrect on the
other side anyway, So I turned that off. But it's
got this other feature where when you use the cruise control,

(03:32):
it'll stay a certain distance behind the person in front
of you, which is great unless the person in front
of you is a horrific driver, because then you'll just
kind of keep up with them. It was bad idea,
and the wheels are gigantic the wheels. I think I'm
used to them now though, because I was bumping into
curbs and things with them initially, or missing the center
of the parking space, like parking on the line at all.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
I'm a terrible parker, so I either it has to
be easy.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
Parking spot, camp, park a shopping car.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
I can't terrible at it.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
She has spatial needs, I do, Yeah, her spatial integration.
Uh that that class in utero she skipped that for
some reason, and she she got really smart.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
But but I can't part don't.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Can't put your don't put your your follow the leader
app on your car if you're following this one.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
Well, I will say there's I won't say which valadictorian
of what class, of what school. There's a certain valedictorian.
All A's got everything right, but she could not drive
a car. She would wreck her car all the time.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Really, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
What it is. But you know, if you are smart,
or you think you're smarter, at least somewhat smart, you
can't operate an autibobile or park or anything.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Like people who can operate automobiles in park are likely
not smart.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
No saying, I'm just saying that people have their talents
and you have so many it's tough to it's my
birthday month, it's his birthday, and we just got another toy.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
I get. Well, it's not a toy. It's not a toy,
but it's no.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
I mean when I when I was watching you in
the as pit boss and our home, you know, it
looks like it looks like we're a pit boss would
be because it's a messany and it overlooks the whole
first floor and our singlings are really high and John
was there with his virtual reality glasses a tick up
like half a space. It's like he's having fun, which
is why we were late starting the podcast.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Well, but they don't know that. I know that, but
company needs to know that I got the I got
the Apple Vision Pro and uh I did that because
we already started shooting some things. By the way, there's
born behind us. Is how I write. Uh, this is
my my uh every structure it's kind of a storyboard,
but it's it's more about story structure. That's how I write.

(05:50):
So that is the uh, the uest episode of Earls
and Perry, and we've shot a little bit uh of
that already. Just establishing chops and all kinds of stuff.
While we were in Hazard and we went to a
place I had a ball. We went to one ninety
line speedway, uh, and I shot a whole bunch of
great footage at the dirt track, so open wheel, modified,

(06:14):
front wheel drive, super late mods everything. It was so
much fun. I got covered in dirt. In fact, when
I when I went to the motorhome to take a shower,
I was washing my hair and they were like big
old clods of dirt coming out. I love. I did.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
The shower was totally brown.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
It was there was a lot of dirt and I
took it looked like it looked like the main street
and on gunsmoke.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
So but I would take a picture of John he
did the green flag, dropped the green flag, and I
want to take a picture of that, and I got
pelted with I mean, it's like wads of like dirt,
like oh, So I took a picture and I ran
back to the car. But that's rough out there.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
That was crazy. That was so good. So one of
the scenes in the Earls of Perry is talking about
how I got my name. My name is Stonewall, and
how I got my name and during the races, and
we haven't shot this part yet, but we're going to.
I've already spoken with Jack. I've spoken with James spoken
to the track.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
We may have a car bought.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Yeah, we may have a Is that how you say
we may have a car bought?

Speaker 2 (07:15):
We may have a car?

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Hazard for ablem. We have bought a car.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
And we had such a great time in a Hazard.
But they have a unique accent, which I love. But
it is unique. I mean there's seven, there's mountains. It
is but so sweet and I would just love to
just sit and listen to everyone talk. And they were, oh,
just so nice. So yeah, we had a wonderful time
and Hazard everybody.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Yeah, they were great. Hey, all the restaurants we went to.
We miss you guys. We miss our Applebee's bunch. We
miss our goal line bunch, we miss our France's bunch,
our Circle T bunch. Oh god, in the goal line,
I said, oh you do yep, said go line. But anyway,
so I shot some footage for that and then I

(07:58):
went back to the hotel and I was editing it together.
And we're on the road. Obviously, you see that we're
on the road a lot but when I edit in
the motor home, I edit on my laptop, which is
a little bitty screen. And I went to get a
new power cord at the Apple store in louisill Lo.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
And they were very helpful.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
They were wonderful. I mean, I sold me a fifty
dollars power cord. It and on the way for some reason,
on the way out, I went and I looked at this.
I wish I'd brought it up so I could show
it to you, but I just now set it up.
But it's it's their version of virtual reality and what

(08:40):
you can do with it, what you can just go
to look so weird that I'm doing this. You operate
it kind of like Tom Cruise and Minority Report. Yeah,
you like flick through things. But what I'm able to
do with it, I'm able to take the laptop screen
and whichever editing software that I use. I currently use

(09:02):
Premiere Probe and I'm thinking about switching over to Ta
Vinci Resolved. If anybody out there is a video editor
and you have an opinion or some advice about whether
I should do that or not, well I didn't do
the thing yet. Oh so that's what you know. So
What happens is you basically take I don't know how
in the world this could be, but you you look

(09:23):
at your laptop screen or your desktop, look at your
laptop screen, and then somehow it is absorbed into this headset.
The laptop screen goes black, and now the screen is
right here in front of you. And you can make
it as big as Remember we talked about the sphere

(09:43):
and wearing the spear in Las Vegas. You can make
it as big as that TV you see a little
bit about. You know that's proably a sixty four inch
television over there, or you can make it like everything
you see. So no more will I be leaning down
and hunched over and doing all this stuff. Now I'm

(10:05):
going to be just grabbing, grabbing footage. And yeah, I'm
very excited about it. And my big concern was was
it going to make me dizzy? Because when when video
games first came out, even Mario or any of the
Race the Dukes of Hazzard game on PlayStation Yeah, PlayStation

(10:29):
two had the Duke's game. Even that made me a
little But this, somehow, this thing you can see through it,
like if I had it on here, I could see
the camera I could see d D. I could see
the houses or the building across the street, but I
can also see my desktop, but everything else stays where

(10:53):
it is. It's kind of hard to explain. But in
the other thing with the video games, they were all
moved thing all the time, and that just kind of
made me feel like I was on a ship at
sea during a storm, and I did not like it.
So I was worried that that's what this was going
to be. It's not at all. Somehow it locks onto

(11:14):
where you are and it's it's wonderful, and the screen
you're looking at is absolutely solid right there, just as
solid as that TV or that board or this camera.
So I don't know how it works, but I'm very
excited about using it because I can use it in
a big room like downstairs, or I can take it
into the motor home, or you can use it on
an airplane. You can use it any anywhere you can.

(11:37):
You can sit and look like a total geek wearing
this headset on your head. You can use this device
the Apple Vision Probe, so check that out. There's a
lot of YouTube videos that'll explain it a whole lot
better than me. But earls of Perry is going to
be edited with that. It's not software, it's just a monitor.
But that's what I'm going to edit Earls for pairing with.

(11:59):
I'm very excited, or.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
We're also very excited to be helped. We've been going
home for a long time. I think we were in
and out to pack more bags and then we had
to leave.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Again, right, we did from here one time, very briefly
after New York and before we.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
Got west or south first, I don't know, I don't remember,
but we had to repack because we had all the
New York and Christmas stuff and whatever. And then we
we got.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Back in a vehicle what and then we dropped the
motorhome off this time to be uh, to get the
backside of the repair. To remember, we had to blow
out uh, and of course got everything we needed out
of the motor home. Deed, he got everything she needed
out of the motor home. You know, four or five
hundred hats and not true and she only got three

(12:49):
hundred hats. Now, he brought a lot of hats in
the motorhome. Okay, one, two, three, four or five in
the motor home. Just I'm just telling the people how
many hats I can, I can spy nine ten. Is
that a hat or is that a swifter like lintbrush?
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
No, it's a hat. It's awesome. It's got feathers. It's
really great.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
It looks like almost more it's like animal.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
The green one, No, the green one went feathers. I
almost wear that because of my green but but it's
warm winterry, so all wait, But I love it because
here I can wear my fun hats. They don't travel well,
the fun ones.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
This one, well, they don't like to be crunched. Yeah,
but I bring all that up to say that. Then
we got here and we had a wonderful event to
do in Madison last night where oxen off cakes at
the beautiful what's the hotel? The Bearmont Fairmont Hotel, which
was the first hotel I st it's a it's a
it's a Madison, a Madison. It's a Marriott.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
Oh it's Marion.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
That's right, it's a Mariot. But anyway, I did not
bring a single pair of past a different shirt. So
we got here. I had my had my toothbrush, so
I have my electricution suits. I had my electricution sit Yeah,
but all I had was the shorts I'm wearing now
because that's still all I have is a pair of

(14:09):
cargo shorts. So I felt so bad going there last.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Night, so I just wore my tennis clothes so we
would start when we all dressed up in Johnson cargo shorts.
But we had a ball. We had a ball there too.
Vanessa Good, who is a shot and almost bank, made
our cake.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
And here's a picture of our cake. By the way,
guess what it is. You guessed that Dickson Hazard cake.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
So and it raised about a thousand bucks.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
That was good the cake last night. They raised a
lot of money for I think one of the reasons
why why Madison Main Street is always known as America's
main street and it wins best main street in this
region every year is because they have this wonderful organization
that raises money and spends it on main Street. And

(14:58):
I'm assuming that's why in the winter time or for
all the different holidays they'll be they'll have Valentine's up,
they'll have corn stalks on all of the all of
the light posts. For Thanksgiving, they had spiders, remember they
had spiders on the city hall and also on the

(15:19):
town hall. What is that over there. Where'd you go today?
With the where you got the tech courthouse? They had
spiders over there too, So the money that they raised,
you can if you live here, if you visit here,
you always see it. You don't ever have to wonder
because you walk down this street and I swear it's
kind of like you're walking down it's better than Disney World,

(15:41):
better than Disney World. It's wonderful and I'm glad to
be part of that. Last night, a lot of fun, good.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
Food, great food, treat people.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
We've had a bunch of Mayor Bob.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
And our friends, goll Own mad Love. So you come
to town, you want to check that out. There's a
new place with duck and bowling. We haven't had a
chance together yet, but right around the corner. There's just
so much to do in so many festivals. And the
street Department's amazing. I don't know, I don't know how
they keep everything just so it's pristine, it's perfect. And

(16:11):
they're like that, oh it's going to be a mess
down by the river because it's flooded clean, not even
a sign of it. They amazing.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Yep, they've done an amazing job down there. And because
they love their town. You know, we talk about that
a lot. We talk about community, we talk about I'm
wondering lately, what in the world what happened? Remember Think
called the Neighborhood Watch, so there was be a sign
say this neighborhood protected by the neighborhood Watch. Well, now
we've got people that we know are rapists and murderers

(16:43):
and bad, bad, bad people that we are getting and
who are here illegally. We're getting them out of our country,
and we have a I can't believe there's anybody, let
alone a measurable amount of people who are fighting to
keep these bad people in our neighborhoods. Maybe it's just

(17:04):
because they're not in their neighborhoods. You remember what happened
when the when Covenor Abbit sent a bunch of a
bunch of folks up to Nantucket, you know, and they
were all screaming about we're a sanctuary state, we want
to you know where, this and that until they showed
up and then they were like, hit the hell out
of mine. Marthating not Nantucket actually.

Speaker 2 (17:24):
But then when they show there, they're like, get them out.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Yeah. It's like the people that say the wall won't
work and walls don't work. That live in a gated community.
Come on, and while they were bitching and moaning about
walls don't work, they put a Remember they put the
fence around the capitol. Yep. If walls don't work, then
then why you building a wall? Oh, a fence, that's different.
Excuse me, I'm sorry, offences, It just give me an

(17:47):
ever living break. I think these people are so embarrassing
because we that they're there. This isn't even a it's
not a political thing, it's a safety thing. Why in
the world would anybody fight to keep and under the
guise of, you know, they need due process. This is
not the American way. Well, where the hell was due

(18:08):
process with the January sixth people? Where was due process
with the with citizen Trump? There was no due process there.
He was in court for a month before. I don't
think they ever even told him why. They wouldn't tell
him why they wouldn't let him. They wouldn't let him,
wouldn't let his lawyers defend him. I guess because they
didn't know what they were trying to defend. Because they

(18:28):
wouldn't tell him why he was there. It's just such crap.
But now it's painfully obvious that this double standard is.
That's that's what these folks are in favor of. And
I don't think they realized they lost yet.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
I think they're starting to get the picture. We just
have been really very lucky to be in these weren'tful communities,
lightly hazard. We loved it. Now back in Madison, it's
just another place that everyone is so friendly and so
little town.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Where the dirt track is Campton Campton, Yeah, oh, the
Camptown Racetrack, Campton Racetrack, Bottom Miles Home.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
It was now.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
They were sweet, they were great, and we.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Being on a one, I was like, gosh, I hope
everything's okay because there were pending a lot of tornadoes
storms that sort of think everything was great with our place,
and we have been cleaning it. We've been working on it.
We've got five stairs, five sets of stairs, and we've
been going up and down and down all day from
the Jeff all the way to Yes. I was getting

(19:34):
into for a back porch and our very good friend
Jeff and Kim friends Jeff helped you, Kim, kimber Bright
a streets and a ton of stuff. It was literally
were and that's where Madison Is. It's just like the
ups got you know, they take it next door. The
lady next door. They keep our packages of the I

(19:55):
mean they were so sweet when we rent the post office.
It could have been nicer.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
They were great. Oh yeah, you're gonna need him. We
got some boxes for you, okay.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
And then and then we went to Hinkles for breakfasts.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
We had to go to Hinkles right away.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
Good. I had my lunch for breakfast because I prefer
lunch food.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Yeah, but it was like a Brunswick stew. It was
a beef stew. It was really good.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
And then John I had an egg sandwich.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Yet all the foods, all the food here is good.
So yeah, we're already having a good time. But we're
gonna be leaving soon. This time next week John will
be shooting a movie in Lexington, Kentucky.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
And it's really looks like a sweet store. Probably shouldn't
say what it is yet, but it's well, just has
to do with a horse farm, that we can say.
And then we're going to go to the Derby. We
might go to the Oaks, but it might be a cunch.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
We can say. I'm gonna I'm gonna do the movie
with because I think it's really cool. My old Summer.
I'm saying, oh, well, well her.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
She's directing Summer. But for Summer that's from Napoleon Dynamite,
which I love Napoleon Dynamite.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
And John Hi, Hillary's what is her name?

Speaker 2 (20:59):
No Hale.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
This is her sister. Her sister, Hailey Duff is directing.
But my old Friday Night cohort. She went on Dallas,
I was on Goods. Obviously is Charlene Tilton. Charlene, It's
going to be in it. And also I've got it.
You know, it's so funny. This is the whole Friday
Night lineup just kind of popped up because Jeff, who

(21:23):
helped me so much today, is a big fan of bodybuilders,
and Lou Farigno is a very dear friend of ours,
and I thought, you know, I don't usually do this,
but I thought, you know, this would be really cool.
So I text Lou and I said, hey, can you
say hello to a really dear friend of mine because
he's a big fan of yours. And he said absolutely,
So they facetimed and yeah, yeah, you were out, you

(21:46):
were outside, but they FaceTime so thank you, Lou greatly
greatly appreciated. You know, Lou's going through a bunch of
a bunch of stuff similar to some things that I'm
going through. And here's to the good guys persevering.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
That's right, good guys about that.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
You don't want to see Lou angry?

Speaker 2 (22:03):
No, was it?

Speaker 1 (22:04):
You wouldn't like me when I'm oh, he is the
angry part, but lose. I've never seen Lou angry at all.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
So sweet.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Yeah, good thing because he's a big man. He's a
big guy.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
Well, when we came back, the only thing that was
a bit of a problem was on the back porch.
The birds invaded because our screen door is just really
not good.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
We must have had some real wind we did, so
it broke the bottom of the screen door off because
the screen door was locked, and I'm thinking I didn't
leave the door open, so it's got to be some
serious wind. There was a screen door. The wind should
go through a screen door. Well it didn't. It broke it,
and uh and some birds got in there and made

(22:45):
a nest and left all painted the porch, painted the porch.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
It's like, oh boy, but because we'd probably be on
the porch otherwise, but no, that needs to be cleaned up.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
Yeah, we didn't want to be out there because it's
dusty and it's it's uh know, the bird stuff. Bird
stuff is bad for you. It's a very very high
dollar word called histo plasmosis that you don't want to get.
And it's a word that Johnny Cash used in a
song only Johnny uh huh. Hear them crows outside my window,

(23:17):
bird droppings on my window sill, probably got hist ol plasmosis.
I got no gun, or I would kill the crows
beans for breakfast once again.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
Well, you know, they're replacing the patsy Cline exhibit at
I think it's called the National Museum and coming in
as Johnny Cash.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
That's gonna be great.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Visit.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Johnny cat scratches, he said, you know, John Schnyder, this
is a sign of great intelligence when you scratch your
left here with your right hand. I said, why, I said,
because it is, because I'd do it anyhow. We've had
such a great, great time, but I do. Oh yeah,

(24:01):
we're going to Kentucky that.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
We went last year and it was amazing, and you know,
we're going to offer an auction on and we don't know.
You have maybe a dinner or.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
Something or uh game of golf, Yeah, yeah, some cold.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
So we can help raise money because they do put
backpacks together for kids. It's on the Unbridled Gala, Unbridled
Eve Gala.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
Now that's May third, right, that's my mother's birthday.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
May second is the party at night. And I don't
know if we can go to Oaks because we may
have to film that day. We're we're waiting to find out.
But the Derby is yes, May third, your Mama's birthday,
and it's going to be so much fun. And I've
asked Ellie here in Madison if she will help stylist,

(24:50):
but it's hard to do because you.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Know cargo shorts.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
You've got a suit, Luke sent you your suit.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
I do I have two suits downstairs?

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Well, I mean we've got really if we do the Oats,
it's three events, it's jam pass.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
You have a third linen coat put out?

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Well, well, I know I'm not even started yet, and
of course I can't wear anything that I'm born before there.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
Why is that?

Speaker 2 (25:15):
Because it's the dirty women for the Derby. You can't
wear a Derby outfit Twice nobody would think that probably
even if guys.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
Do know they wear a seersucker suit, Oh no, it's
a different one. It's not the same sheersucker suit.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
It's different for a guy. It just is. And especially
a hat, you cannot wear the same derby hat.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Well, so I don't know what. We don't have to
worry about that.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
But Ellie Troutman, she is she is helping us with that,
and she is really good at it.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
What counting hats again, I do have a lot of hats, and.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
We've been talking about how I should you know, how
we kind of maybe want to donate, you know, work
skin cancer Day or something, or I don't know, or
just donate them to make people happy because I wear
them for fun. I had skinny us or hate initially,
that's why I start wearing hats. But then I just
really liked it. So I'm wear a hat of it

(26:12):
den sometimes two or three nine.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
A one time, got'a be funny. I like the cat
in the hat, or like that pirate and the Pirates
of the Caribbean.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
There's a lot of hats in our place.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
But we did find I found today when I was
cleaning stuff up. This building used to be a men's store.
I think a habitasherie I think is the high dollar
histoplasmosis word for what this building used to be. But
I found two boxes that were in my office where
the pit boss sits. I think it's where the store
detective would stand, probably and make sure people weren't shoplifting.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Although they wouldn't do that around here, just saying them,
but that's okay.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
Hell they wouldn't. I've seen those movies. They wouldn't do
it now, but they might have done it then anyway.
So I found these two boxes and I thought, I
wonder what that is because they were kind of but
not that bad, and I open them up and it
was I think there were fifty in each one of

(27:09):
I guess they're hat boxes, but maybe maybe shirts, but
that hat would fit in it. But their hat boxes
about about that big, but they are the boxes are vintage,
and I thought, wouldn't it be cool if we did
something where we we uh donated hats, her sold hats.
I think she should have a hat store, I really do.
I think she should have a hat store because we
already had the inventory, and we already have the store.

(27:32):
We have the store, but for the first hundred hats.
These folks could get their hats, and these these great
old not a hat box, not like not like that one.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
You might ease hat boxes. I think you might be.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
I think I think there's story.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
But you have a lot of little hats.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
Yeah, and some hats that could just kind of in.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
The Yeah, because I have a lot of berets and
things what fit in those boxes. Then I've got some
bake hats.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
She got one hat box down there. I swear to
you that hat box is this this big.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
It's as big as a piece of luggage.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
And yes, it's like a large, large Pepperoni pizza in
New York in nineteen sixty five. This is a big
hat box. And I open it up expecting to see
a hat. But what did I find in there? A
bunch of beautiful Derby.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
Dresses from a past Derby.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
Oh you've already worn them?

Speaker 2 (28:26):
Yeah, I will not be wearing them again.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
Did we get rid of them? No?

Speaker 2 (28:31):
I meant I will not be wearing them again at
the Derby. Oh, but we're closed more than once. Of course.
I'm just saying at the Derby, you can't. I just
don't think you recycle. I mean you can't do it.
But I just I feel like I have too much
respect for the event to recycle. Just say it.

Speaker 1 (28:52):
It's respect for the event exactly. That's right. That's why
she needs another dress.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
I would want to get a new hat. I'm okay.
I love to buy hats. I love to wear hats.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
It's fun. Let's see if we can love to sell hats.
I think sell I.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Don't know, no, no, but there are some that you know,
I thought they were cute, but on me they don't
look quite right. But they went for someone else. I'm
certain of that. So I would love to give away
hats I don't know about. Maybe you could sell them
at the store.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Yeah, yeah, they're beautiful hats. I'll tell you what there,
what do you want?

Speaker 2 (29:35):
What should we do with the hats?

Speaker 1 (29:37):
Well, they're gonna say get away. I mean I understand that.
I would say the same thing, but I don't know.
It's a business. What's wrong with having a business. What's
wrong with capitalism?

Speaker 2 (29:46):
Nothing? Capitalism is great, right.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
We don't want to be like, oh no, no, you
have to forgive all the student loans and give all
the hats away. Oh that's right, because paying back your
student loan is unfair somehow. Now we saw that today.
What the hell, what's the matter with these kids? Kids?
I don't know what's wrong with these kids today. Remember
Paul Lindh I did.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
He was the mental Square in Hollywood Square. He was
and he sang that song and John was on Hollywood
Squares and he kept giving away cars.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
I think it was a whole week and it was
John Davidson was the host at that point. And I
they all the squares had a key and there was
a car there, and one of us had the right
key because I was on Dukes the very first day,
I had the key that started the car. So the
person won the car the next and I had the

(30:36):
I had the key that started the car all five days.
And this is how I remember it. You know, it
was the eighties, so you know it could be a little.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
I love the eighties. The Amies were great.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
They were they were.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
But I think things are getting better now. I'm excited,
things are turning up.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Every things, Yeah, as you're looking up, but it just
it just I think what's going on. And I'm not
going to say half because it's not nearly half. You know,
they're the not so silent minority. They're just they're just
looking increasingly foolish, and they don't seem to realize it.

(31:16):
I mean, Bernie Sanders doesn't seem to realize that when
he goes and gives speeches about fighting the oligarchy and
he gets there on a private jet paid for with
taxpayer money, that he is part of the problem he's
trying to fight. He is as stupid as I'm sorry
I'm going there. He's as stupid as Kamala Harris was

(31:37):
when she said we need to turn the page. We
talked about this when that was happening, turn the page
on your administration. And I'm not saying she man, I
can't stand her, But even if she was God's gift
to democracy, you don't you don't bitch about your the
current administration if you are half of it and say

(32:02):
we're got to turn to I just they don't seem
to understand. It's like they don't proofread anything. Like what
was that was? Anchorman? Said anchorman where they kept putting up, Uh,
they kept putting up things for the guy to say,
and he was like, oh my god, and he said them.
It was It was pretty funny. So Will Fanno, the

(32:22):
little guy from the Office. Oh, oh no, Will Fare
was anchorman. You're right, who am I thinking of the Office? U?
He was Evan Almighty as well. Oh it was Bruce
Almighty that he was in. And he was like, I
did to make that. Yeah, I almost got that role.
Really I did. I found out about a year and
a half later. I almost got that role. Yeah too,

(32:45):
damn good looking.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
It happens with you.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
It's kitty. That's not what I heard. It is what
I heard.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Yeah, I mean, I do think you're right. I do
think you're too good luck him for that role.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
Well, but I thought that would have been that would
have been great. Now I did. I did a movie
called snow Day, and I was Chad Simmons. Uh this
this really terrifically cheesy, cheesy and narcissistic weather Man.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
But boy do you have the voice sport.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
Well, thank you. I appreciate that. But that was a
movie with Chevy Chase. If you haven't seen if you
haven't seen snow Day, then check that out. It's a
lot of fun. It's it's a pretty old movie. And
he's from We're from Mount Kiscore. I think he's Yeah,
we're from the same county anyway in New York because
he's got kind of that time and I think everybody

(33:43):
loves him now, but at that time he had a
bit of a bit of a like, you know, stay,
you know, keep your distance sort of a reputation. But
but i'd heard that, and I heard he was from
from Westchester. So I went right up and I and
I said, Hey, I'm from Mount Kiscoll. He's like, oh shit.
So we got along, grape, We got a long great
It was one of the chase.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
I always thought it was weird when I uh worked
in DC and there was a place called Chevy Chase.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
There's a street in Los Angeles Chevy Chase. Yeah, there
you go. Yeah. I never liked it when people went
to the.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
John Don't, don't, don't. I didn't mean to do that.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
That's funny. I did not mean to do that. That's funny,
but I did. That was a slip freud. Well.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
Easter, we just had easter.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
We did.

Speaker 2 (34:32):
It'll be about a week away when it's gonna move to.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
I don't want to poke anybody now, but I moved
this over here, so we'll I keep looking at the
wrong side of camera. Now I'll look at the proper
side of camera, which is the left side.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
So we celebrated Easter and we went to Ruth Chris
Steakhouse and the most one from building. To me, it
looked like there were Easter eggs all over it. Yeah,
the Frank Lloyd.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
Right, Frank Lloyd right inspired. I don't think it's a
Frank Lloyd right building. I think it was of his students.
But it's so nice, Oh my god. And the people
there again, the people and that was that was in Louisville, right,
people there could not have been nicer. In fact, our
our waiter and bartender is actually a stand up comedian.

(35:16):
He's going to be doing a show here at the
Ohio Theater in Madison.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
That was so cool. It's like one of the ons
of that. But it is such a small world. It
keeps happening over and over again. It's just like today,
we're well yesterday.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
Yesterday you well, he's your he's your he's my friend too. Now.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
But we were big Jeremy.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
We were taking the motor home to uh to Cunningham
r the campers because of the damage it was done
when the tire blew and they were wonderful. They got
us in right away. And but to get there, and
remember this thing is the size of the tour of us.
To get there, there was a bunch of road construction
where it was the one way and there's a road.

(35:57):
It kept saying road closed. It didn't really mean anyway.
It was very confusing and one of the turns there
was no way I was going to be able to
make it. So I had to pull into a recycling
center and swing wide and go in. And while I
was doing that, this friend of Deity's for decades, right
for decades, part of the RNC, right or younger? Why

(36:22):
are mafia m younger? Yeah, So we get to the
parking lot and.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
He recognized the butter home. He had been following us,
and he laterline did follow us or was ahead of
us to check on us. Toy.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
It was going to help us get through the navigate
the slings and arrows of this construction zone. So that
was yesterday. What's his name, Jeremy, Jeremy. So that was yesterday.
We had a wonderful conversation and the people at Cunningham
could not have been nicer, and met the two brothers
that own it, and great and it's like daughters and granddaughters.

(36:56):
It's a total family business. If you have any issues
with the home or a trailer or a sprinter van
or anything like that, and you're anywhere near the Louisville area,
go there. They're great folks and they'll they'll section here
in Indiana.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
They're on the sunny side.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
Of the Oh, I'm sorry, they're in Indiana. I apologize.
That's right.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
We especially Clark's Mill, Jefferson Mill.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
I think that's right, Jefferson Mill, and Cunningham like Richie
Runningham on happy days. But there was there was Jeremy.
We had a nice conversation and we then we left
the motor home and I left all my clothes in
it except for carts, and came back here. And then
today we were working and jeff and I were lifting
truly hundreds of pounds of statuary. Uh. And finally this

(37:44):
one said, you know, I'm hungry. I'm hungry. So we
went next door to the tap room to UH. I
had a great like fried chicken sandwich. I didn't take
a picture, but that was too hungry. UH. And what
happened this guy comes and.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
Goes, hey, you're still you know, I'm knowing from politics
when I was a chairman up in Scott County, but
now I'm in Clark County and you know my friend,
you know, Jeremy, you're Jeremy. I'm like, are you kidding me?

Speaker 3 (38:12):
We just saw him yesterday, said talking about Jeremy. Who
we Yeah, Jeremy, we saw yesterday. We saw him at
our at our wedding party. But yeah, so it's funny,
how uh how the world is very small, but there's
something going on. There's some reason for all that, for
you reconnecting with all of your your why are.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
Now they're great? So gosh, you know, which is fun.
Way you've known people for such a long time and
they definitely have your back. Oh yeah, Jeremy, especially because
he's a really big guy. So so whenever he shows up,
it's always kind of like if you feel safer. Uh,
he's even big. You know, John's a big guy, but
Jeremy's really big.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
And he can do the he can do the Jim
Cryer no smile thing.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
M h m hm. So yes, so it is fun
And in fact, I was I was texting our mutual
friend Jim Cryer.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
What.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
I'm just waiting for your crack.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
I got had to. I couldn't help it. Tyler Perry
used to tell me. He said, whatever you do, don't smile.
Don't smile, it all goes away when you smile. So right,
all right? And I said, but what if I'm doing
something really evil? Can I smile? Then he said, yes,
that would be great. I missed that show. That show
was so much fun to do, my great cast member.

(39:35):
I know, I know, but you know when you when
you work on a Tyler Perry show, you're kind of
I tell people, you're like, you're you're already a skydiver,
but you get into playing with Tyler. You and your
fellow cast mates get into playing with Tyler. And first
thing he does is he throws all the parachutes out. Uh.
And then he says, go get him. Because it's like,

(39:57):
you're already good at what you do, and you already
know how to do what you do. Would you do
it one time? I'm still oh god? It worked well.
But we shot We started doing forty five pages a day.
We moved six so much, and the most we ever
shot was one hundred and six I think it's one
hundred and sixty four pages in one day. That's like
three episodes. Yep. It was what it sure made it

(40:21):
sure made remembering dialogue easy. Yep. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
I think we've got eight days with this film and Lexington,
and it was so much fun for that to pop
up because it's right around when we're doing everything with
Hazard and of course Madison not far away in Louisville,
so it's just just meant to be too. So that's
going to be great. That's going to be a lot
of fun. And of course John will be or we
will be on a horse farm, I believe. Maybe for

(40:51):
all of your scenes. I'm not sure, but some of
the others are going to Canland the racetrack, which I've
never been.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
John has not been, but a lot of we kind
of at the racetrack. I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
I think I'm watching to Kalin Well, I think no, no, no,
I'm not but I've never been able to go.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
I've not been there, but I think I think my
characters that's uh that's the uh culmination, that's the big ending.
I think I'm there. I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
That'd be great.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
I hope, Well I'm not part of the uh uh well, we'll.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Find out if we get to go to Kielan or not.
Because I'm the.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
Horse part of the horse team. You know, we'll see fun.
But yeah, that'll be a lot of fun. And I'm
excited about doing it because, uh, you know, I did
Doctor quinn Medicine Woman all those years ago and doing
a and I've done it. I've done a couple of gosh,
I can't remember the names of them, but I've done
a couple of really really uh nice heartfelt films about

(41:48):
horses that you know, where horses are at the center.
And I really enjoy it. I really really enjoy it.
This time. I don't think I get to ride though. Uh.
And Doctor Quinnett was great because they would hand me.
I'd be in my dressing room at like six o'clock
in the morning, I put on my canvas cowboy outfit,
and somebody'd knock on the door and hand me my
gun belt and show me that the gun alec are

(42:10):
you paying attention? He would show me that the gun
was empty, and I would show him that, yes, indeed,
the gun is empty, and I'd put it in my
holster and lock it in there with a little little
piece of leather. And then about ten minutes later, I
get another knock on the door, and there would be
the wrangler with my horse, and I would ride my
horse to the set, not far one hundred yards or so.

(42:32):
And I felt like, John Wayne, if you want to.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
Ride somewhere in a horse farm, if you want to
ride and show, they'll like you.

Speaker 1 (42:40):
Well, but you know, boy, we don't know. Yeah, but
that's that's in the world of jockeys, and that's a
whole different kind of riding which I cannot do.

Speaker 2 (42:47):
Well, yeah, you're like, I cannot do and I could.

Speaker 1 (42:50):
I could put it jockey in each pocket.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
Yes, So so it's going to be fun too because
I you know, my my longtime run from wayres To.
Her name is Deanna, and she always tells us about
the horses, you know, because we will bet on horses,
but I will only.

Speaker 1 (43:07):
Bet I bet my money out a bobtailed bag do
dog somebody got on the bay.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
But I will only bet on Kentucky horses. Sorry, but
that's it. It's just like bourbon. No bourbon out of
another state.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
For men another state.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Well, they say they're whiskey, but there isn't.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
Well they know they Tennessee whiskey. It's not bourbon.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
They can call on bourbon, but it's not bourbon. Bourbon
has to be made in the United States.

Speaker 1 (43:34):
Well, Tennessee is in the United States, I know, but
whiskey can be made anywhere.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
Bourbon Now bourbon has to be in the United States.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
So I you say, only only real bourbon comes from Kentucky, right,
But that's just my opinion.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
They do it when I was in New York, or
one time I was in New York, I believe when
I was doing a lot of TV there.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
And was it a licy. I think he should do
TV again.

Speaker 2 (43:55):
What do you think, Well, I'm too busy with you.
You're TV.

Speaker 1 (44:01):
You happy to I'd be happy to watch you work.

Speaker 2 (44:04):
Well, we'll see what.

Speaker 1 (44:04):
Happens to TV.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
But they I was at a liquor store in New York.

Speaker 1 (44:08):
I want to see your tangle with one of these
people that are arguing to get I really, I still
want to. I so want to see her tangle with
a judge to bring these people back. Really, I want
to see her tangle with that.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
It's politics. You need a flat jacket these days. It's
got politics.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
It's just common sense.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
Well, I agree with you, but it's just it's it's
gone to a different level where people just are furious.
And the Democrats they are so angry that they lost.
I mean, they just say the craziest things. So I
don't know, and they they they unlike our happy life.

(44:50):
I like doing the happy stuff. Now if you have
to go there, I guess we can go there, but
we don't. We've got all kinds of fun things to do.
We've got a big announcement coming up. Not going to
go there yet.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
Oh you're saying I shouldn't talk about politics. Okay, I
know not.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
When I said, I just said I like the fun
stuff better. I think I've been there, done that. You know,
the political stuff, it is great and it's necessary. And
we're so happy with who's been elected of obviously for president,
and then the vice president's wonderful Jade Vans, and went
through his home area several times in.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
Jack Oh yeah, in Jackson, Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
And then you know all of the cabinet secretaries. And
by the way, how crazy is it that Christy no
got mugged and they took her purse in Washington, d c.
And she had three grand them.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
There you get mucker. She just go to the bathroom
and leave her perse somewhere she got mugged.

Speaker 2 (45:42):
Somebody took her purse, and she is a cabinet secretary.

Speaker 1 (45:45):
How does that happen? And she's also tough. I'm surprised that.

Speaker 2 (45:49):
Well, well, but if somebody comes behind you and just
grabs it and you're like caught off? Are? I mean,
you know, but I'm like, who's her security? I mean,
I don't mean to be that's crazy. She's a cabinet secretary.
She's got now. I mean she's literally in like like
she was a designated survivor like the president owns. Is

(46:12):
always a terrible thought, but there was a show about that.
And there's the order of succession. Now she is at
the at the end for the cabinet secretaries, but she
could be president. I mean, that's how important she is,
any of the cabinet secretaries. And if something happens God forbid,
at the State of the Union and everybody, like at

(46:33):
the bomber or something, and everybody goes away, there is
always one cabinet secretary somewhere off campus, somewhere in the
hiding that nobody knows undisclosed location. So Christy now could
be president of the United States one day. Obviously, she's
has no security and she's got no security.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
That just doesn't make any saynt get it?

Speaker 2 (46:53):
Maybe she may.

Speaker 1 (46:55):
Revoke Hunter Biden's security, yeah, because he really needs security. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
And the Clarence, you know, for these past presidents to
have uh what is it? C I A well, Clarence,
so there so they know like everything is going on.
And I'm thinking, why would that be if you're not
president anymore, Clarence, Why shouldn't I mean.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
It seemed like that would be a given.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
Yeah, I don't know, but that was a surprise too.
But you know, thanks to Musk, a lot, a lot
a lot are being uncovered. And who wouldn't want us
to save money and who wouldn't want corruption?

Speaker 1 (47:38):
People who are getting the grass exactly. But the folks
who are keying Tesla's and writing Nazi propaganda are terrible,
terrible stuff on on on Tesla dealerships. Because these people
are not getting the kickbacks. I don't understand how they
could buy into that. I mean, I understand that Adam

(48:03):
Schiff and Nancy Pelosi and her husband and all these
people are getting millions and millions of dollars and it's graft.
I believe that to be true. I believe that they've
been getting lots of our taxpayer money for decades. However,
long as she's been in there, there's no other explanation
why somebody who makes one hundred and seventeen or one

(48:25):
hundred and seventy thousand dollars a year can have a
net worth of one hundred million dollars. I make good money.
I don't have a net worth of one hundred It's ridiculous.
Making money is not that difficult. Keeping it is nearly impossible.
So how have they done that? Somehow? So why in

(48:46):
the world the people who probably make minimum wage and
spent their own money to buy a spray can so
they could go to face a Tesla dealership? Why are
they upset that Musk is turning the lights on to
all this corruption? I don't understand it. What kool Aid?

(49:07):
I've got a great song called Drinking the kool Aid.
It was actually about COVID in the vaccine, but you
should check it out. John Schneider Drinking the kool Aid. Fun, Fun,
fun Fun. I'll put a link in the description below.
As they say on all these videos, but it just
blows my mind. I don't get it. Do you understand that.

Speaker 2 (49:27):
I think they just want what they want. They don't care.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
But why do the why do the why do the
pawns willfully run into battle for this nonsense because they're
the one they're getting it's their tax me they're right
arms man back, but they're getting justice.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
He works so hard, it's NonStop. I don't know how
he does it, but he does. And it's just like,
it does not matter what the man does, they will
be against it. It it does not matter. They won't.
I give him a chance.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
So all right, Oh, the school bus of children was
going off a cliff and Donald Trump bumped into it
with what's what's the big truck? The big car they
drive around in?

Speaker 2 (50:13):
Not the beast.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
The Beast had his secret service guys bump into the
and say, the one hundred and fifty school children, that's
still bad and he's bad. Why would he do that?
You know, those they if they were, if they would,
oh my god, just shut up. You lost because you
don't know what people want. You don't know what's.

Speaker 2 (50:37):
Important people you need people.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
You don't understand. You don't understand what's important to us,
and you don't understand that we don't work for you.
You work for us. It is a government by the
people and for the people, not a people by the
government and for the government. So get your head out

(51:02):
of your butt and start serving your constituency and stop
polluting them with this nonsense that makes them go out
and say terrible things about the guy who is uncover
the guy and his team who are uncovering. How you
manage to get millions of dollars every year that I'm
pretty sure you don't pay taxes on shifty shift. I'm

(51:24):
pretty sure you aren't claiming all this money that you're
taking from us. So stop it, because one of these days,
what's our wonderful Who's coming after him? The wonderful blonde
Pam Pam Bondi Pam is coming after you, and she
will not sleep until she has you firmly and perhaps

(51:48):
permanently behind bars.

Speaker 2 (51:51):
The hires are amazing. I mean, they're getting pid tax
at the hard time. But you know, I mean, they're
never going to be happy with who's there. But they
all wore card. They're so smart.

Speaker 1 (52:01):
Well's because they're not there. They're only going to be
happy if well you're not there, So suck. There's a
lot of movies I wish I was in. I don't
say they suck because I wasn't in them. I just say,
you know, well I sure I was in that movie.

Speaker 2 (52:13):
Well we should probably also mention that at Easter a
few hours later, the Pope died and ida, I mean,
and to everyone, everyone should be sad about that or
you know, but if he was sick, and he was,
I mean, he is not sick anymore, so that's good.

Speaker 1 (52:32):
No, he is healthier than he's ever been.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
But the conflict is such a fascinating John and I
were talking about that, about how it works, and you know,
you have the black smoke, black smoke and then white
smoke whenever they pick up Pope, and how all of
that works, and that has such a history.

Speaker 1 (52:49):
There's a looking about it. I think Anthony Hopkins was
in it. In the last ten years, they made a
movie about that. I didn't know about all of that stuff.
It's a fascinating film. I think it's just called The Pope.
But look it up and uh and follow that a bit.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
So yes, we uh a fellow, Well, we're not Catholic,
but to our friends who are Catholic, you know, I'm
very sorry about that. But it you know, he's in
a better place.

Speaker 1 (53:15):
Yes much, the Pope, the Pope.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
You know it can't go along in heaven, asked the Pope.

Speaker 1 (53:22):
Nope, that's right.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
So so so that happened, you know, that happened for
the events and Easter. You know again, we had a
great time. We had a great time. It has ard
the track back in Madison. And you know, next year
we're only planning something. But next year is the Sister Centennial.

(53:43):
What that means. It's a two hundred and fifty year
celebration of our country.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
Well it's this year, you know it's not it's not
a calendar year.

Speaker 2 (53:50):
Well well I believe I might be wrong.

Speaker 1 (53:54):
What it's the fourth of July, right.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
Right, But next year, I mean, we're going to celebrate
for a long time.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
But it was kind of like Nickey Mouse's birthday, his
fiftieth birthday or an Some of you remember.

Speaker 2 (54:05):
Seventeen seventy six, you were around, that's when that was
a big celebration.

Speaker 1 (54:09):
But now, wait a minute. Some of them remember seventeen
seventy six. Some of them weren't bortant yet. Seventeen seventy six.

Speaker 2 (54:17):
I'm sorry, nineteen seventy six.

Speaker 1 (54:18):
Hey you, but it was something they were they were
born because they're getting so security.

Speaker 2 (54:23):
You know what I mean. But it was celebrating seventeen
seventy six, so it was two hundred years. But now,
believe it or not worth two fifty How can that
be twenty twenty six, two hundred and fifty years.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
Right, So my point I need to celebrate it. I
think you celebrated from Yeah, that was very funny. I
was in the bi centennial parade at Disney World in
nineteen seventy six. Yeah, playing a suzophone, which I didn't
know how to play. I learned three notes because our
suzophone player in the in band at North Springs High School,

(55:00):
Chris McGinnis. Oh my god, I can't believe I remember this.
Hey Chris, he got the flu or something and he
couldn't make it. He couldn't make it, so I got
the band director said you're big enough to carry a susophone.
Can you play a susanphone? I said, what the what's
a suzophone? But my dad used to play the tuba

(55:22):
and I have my father's tuba, but that was brass
and you know, so a susophone was white, and I
think they're made out of fiberglass. But I was actually
I was actually there, so that was a lot of fun.
But I think that the birthdays actually starts fourth of
July twenty twenty, yeah, twenty twenty fifth Sea and goes

(55:44):
for a year, so it's not the the calendar year,
so it's not January first. I think it starts on
the actual day, which as far as I'm concerned, is
the fourth of July. I know there's some people say, no,
it wasn't a fourth of July, and Jesus wasn't born
on Christmas and all that kind of I don't care.

Speaker 2 (56:02):
But we do celebrate July fourth Independence Day, which is amazing.

Speaker 4 (56:06):
And again in nineteen seventy six, can you know it
was fifty years ago that was the two hundredth birthday,
and now we're two fifty the sester centennial.

Speaker 2 (56:18):
So we're going to party like rock stars for a year.

Speaker 1 (56:22):
And Mark were celebrating our country.

Speaker 2 (56:24):
We're going to get into that a little more because.

Speaker 1 (56:25):
We're probably not going to be here for the three
hundredth birthday, right, so we're really going to.

Speaker 2 (56:30):
Do it right. We're going to do it up this time. Around.

Speaker 1 (56:32):
We are for the sester since checking out our time
and we'll two and a half minutes. My god, we've been.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
Rambling two minute warnings.

Speaker 1 (56:41):
A minute warning, two minute warning. We've been rambling here.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
Uh, we've just been having a conversation with our friends.
We have and again we always appreciate your suggestions. Watch
out for the scammers, watch out for the bad people.
It happens all the time. We think they would get bored,
but they don't.

Speaker 1 (56:57):

I said, no, please stop falling for that nonsense. No,

there for you ladies. Because they are. I think it's
really cool. And I can't believe that that they're camouflage.
It's camo like pink and light. I think they're fantastic.

Speaker 2 (57:36):
But I was like, you know, you know, my affinity
for hats is like, wait a minute, we need more
women's stuff. We need more hats. Sober hat and then
maybe you know I can sell or give away. I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (57:48):

kind Genie hats. Yeah, one of a kind, because God forbids.

points and it was like something something kind of kind
of clicked in. But if you don't play golf, it
doesn't matter. Top golf is so much fun. Wherever you are,
chances are there's one not far from you. Uh. I
thought that. I thought was great. It's not the healthiest
