This week, the feistiness is dialed up and for good reason. From childhood celebrities saying their final goodbyes and realizing I’m getting old to a doctor’s office front staff that might need a permanent improvement plan, it’s been one of those weeks. I also dive into my latest AI obsession and how it may have accidentally landed me on a list. Buckle up this episode’s got sass, nostalgia, and a touch of digital paranoia.

Welcome my name the Daily Life of Frank. My name
is Frank, and we are here at another another episode seven.
I have no idea. I think it's two ninety seven. Welome,
Welcome to the podcast back.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Thank you for tuning in. If you did.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
If not, shame the fuck you, just kiddy, I'm sorry.
Got a little bit of a rough go today, craky
no uh yeah. Flashback episode last week, this week new episode.
What a crazy fuck last two weeks it's been huh.
(01:20):
We got celebrities who are dying left and right, and
a lot of celebrities from growing up right from like
I feel like, from when I was a kid in
junior high even maybe littler than that, all the way
through all the way through you know, high school, and
(01:41):
even even to that in nineteen twenty twenty one, I
mean lost Bobby Jenks, Ryan Samberg and then you know,
Hulk Cogan and Ozzy Osbourne. Man, it's been a crazy,
crazy is a week. And the sad thing is, you know,
(02:04):
besides the fact that we've lost a lot of folks,
and you know, it's just like, I guess, a re
representation of I'm getting fucking old, Like we're all getting
old and the circle of life is catching up to
(02:24):
us rather quickly. Yeah, I'll tell you, I did not expect.
I don't know, I just didn't expect a lot of
a lot of the passings away this week last week.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
But hey, hey let's have a podcast.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Let's not make this all somber and uh sad uh.
And I'm already cranky as it is, so uh yeah,
we're gonna I think we're gonna think this is the
first time in a long time. We're gonna experience all
emotions today on this podcast.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Journey. No, no, all serious though.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah, it's hearts and prayers to the families and those
you know who knew knew those people closely in the
fans and the fans the printed darkness. Man, I've been
watching a lot of Ozzy Ols more clips from his
reality show, and every time I watch it, I laugh
even harder, even harder and harder and harder and harder. Yeah,
(03:23):
I just laugh at all this stuff, all the craziness,
you know. I laugh like a lot. It's because it's
all the dad moments, right, like when his kids are fighting,
or when like the animals are like jumping on the counter.
There's like a moment where like the cat jumps on
the counter in Assy he's about to make chicken. It's
one of my favorite clips ever, and.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
He's like, fuck off, go fuck off.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
And then he doesn't remember the cat's name. It's like
it's like a parrot, right, you can't remember your kids
name for calling him everything. He's like, fuck off, Gus,
John Mark, Tony, I don't know. Yeah, so it's like, hey,
fuck up. But yeah, yeah, it's crazy. It's crazy, but
(04:09):
yeah it is. It's not like I'm not like, you know,
like like I'm not.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Like, oh man, life's too fast or something like that.
But it can hit you a little bit, right, You
hit you a little bit.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Some of these people that you watch growing up are
passing away, are passing away. But I really thought, man,
the Prince of darkness. He was gonna he was gonna
outlift me. He'd be like one hundred and fifty years old.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Yeah, But you know, I will say this, I had
a doctor appointment. Maybe that's why I'm a little crabby.
I'll tell you what happened, and maybe you'd be like, oh,
I see why. He's a little he's a little feisty today,
he's a little he's a little uh, he's a little.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Wound up, you know. But prefacing it, I love my doctors,
I really do. You know.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I had that really really scary incident back and when
it happened, yeah, I needed to find a dream team,
like I like to call it, and find the right
set of doctors to help me get back on my
healthcare journey.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
So the doctors are awesome. They are awesome.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
The front staff, oh that could be a little bit
uh yeah, Oh.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
My fucking god.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I think that if I had to interact more than
I have to with the front staff, that if they
took my blood price here, they'd be like, holy shit,
we got to meet you right now. Why is your
blood pricere so high? Why is it's so high? But yeah,
the nurses, the doctors, they're great. I think the one
nurse is finally beginning to pick up on my sense
(05:54):
of humor. So, you know, you weigh yourself at the
doctor's office and you're all excited, Did I lose any weight?
And I haven't because I've been like gaining weight, which
is weird. But apparently insulin and stuff you sometimes.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Will gain weight.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
So I was like, here, I go, well, my sugar
is intact, but you know, just keep going up the size.
I already specially have to order my clothes if I
can have a double specially order of now because the
goddamn insulin fuck. But with that said, by sugars are
really good. They're intact. You know, we might be changing
(06:31):
up some of the insulin and some of that kind
of stuff, some of the plan and I'm very happy
with it because I worked really hard to change up
a lot of my dietary things and really changed it up.
Where the point is, I was April and it's made June, July, August,
four months and I've really did a three sixtet. Maybe
not on the scale, because it's the fucking insulin, and
(06:53):
I can't blame it on anything else. I can't be like, oh,
it's because I eat a lot of sugar.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
It's like, no, I don't anymore. So that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It's is what it is. But at least it's good
on there. But when I weighed myself at the doctor's office,
they do it in kilograms or whatever the fuck they
do it in and then the nurses like, do you
want to see that in pounds? I said, no, I
fucking don't. I was like, I probably don't want to
see that in pounds. Then she laughed, Like I laughed,
because you know, you gotta laugh. We make a joke
about your old way, you gotta laugh, so the other
(07:22):
person knows it's okay to laugh too.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
But they're great.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
The front staff, though, holy shit, if I had to,
they would, they would be on a performance improvement plan.
I would definitely be on it. And this has happened
twice now, twice in a row, so I think we're
striking out here. The first time I was about a
couple months ago. There was a little bit of a
delay or a hold up, and it just went crazy.
(07:46):
But this is a more recent incident that I kind
of remember pretty pretty well here because it just happened
about an hour ago or hour and a half ago
and I got my h You know, they don't get
band aids anymore.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
It looks like they give this, like.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
This band around my arm like I'm part of the
fucking militia or something with it. It's annoying me, but
I'm glad because I hate pulling off anything sticky. I cry.
I have a tendency to cry. But uh, just the staff.
So we get done with it. Now, we gotta do
some blood work. You gotta check that A one ce, right,
(08:20):
you gotta check some of that sugar stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
You gotta check it.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
You gotta check it. So we go out of the
waiting room. Because previously the past was you go out
of the waiting room and you sit there and they
call you. It's like an automatic one two three. But
in that meantime, they implemented a new process. Why would
you make this process more difficult than it has to
be because everything is electronic, you have to recheck in. Yes,
(08:44):
you heard me correctly. I'm not not making a joke
out of this. You had to recheck in to the lab.
Nobody you know, said anything from the front staff, Like
they saw you walk out of the room.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
They saw me walk out.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
I saw me sit down in the chair, and I
don't know if it's just I don't know what it is,
because if I think I'm guessing more of a competency thing,
I think it's a little bit of that, because if
I am going out of there and I'm sitting there
and then everybody else is getting called before me, like
(09:17):
I don't want to just fucking see what do you think?
I said, Oh, nothing else to do today, I'm gonna
sit in the fucking doctor waiting room. No no, no, no, no, no, no,
no no, no, no, no, no, no no no. There's
no fucking TVs in there, nothing, no magazines. You're on
your own, bitch. But this is what gets me. And
(09:37):
when I went up there, or my wife did, because
my wife is my hero because I don't like confrontation,
and when she sees something wrong, she will speak up
on it. So when she went there, they go, well
you have to check in, and I'm like, he's like, okay,
so yeah, we check in. But this is what pisses
me off because that that same front area, that front area.
(10:03):
I don't know if it was pot look fucking Friday
or what it was, But first off, I didn't know
you can eat all that food at a desk area,
considering it is a healthcare facility, right, Like I'm fucking
waiting for somebody to open up a bag of peanuts,
like the peanuts you get at the stadium, like, you know,
because he probably had a peanut energy by there.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
They didn't care. They had more.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
They were eating tortilla chips more than I eat tortilla
chips like on a you know, Chicago beer Sunday.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
And that's fine. I'm fine with that.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
What I am not fine with is when you make
your customer in that case number two, and your lunch
order and everything else is number one and the customer
is number two.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
That's what gets me aggravated.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And the fact that there is no customer service as
they proceeded to talk about lunch for forty two minutes. Now,
maybe if we weren't talking about what we were going
to get for lunch for forty two minutes, then possibly
we could have questioned why this guy has walked out
of the room and is sitting in the waiting room
but he's not getting called up. I don't know, because
(11:11):
they did it for everybody else, and I'm a pretty
nice fucking guy. I really am I really am n here,
I'm swearing a little bit, but so what we all swear.
I don't know, though, And I don't know what ticked
me off because the last time I was there, it
was the same goddamn thing. It was the same goddamn
person talking about their lunch order, the same fucking person.
(11:31):
I got to start scheduling my things way in the morning.
Then I'm afraid they're gonna start talking about their breakfast order.
But it was the most I think it pissed me off.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Like at first, I was like, oh, it's all right,
it's okay. I got excited.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
I'm like, oh, I'll get my Americano from Starbucks, like
it's a whole thing. It's like a treat after the doctors.
And then they're talking and this fucking most chaotic order.
I know, the guy who's taking the lunch order at
the restaurant the other line is not a nurse, but
fuck I would give him the Daisy Award.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
I would.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I would have just said, here's the Daisy Award, congratulations
for putting up with that. Because the lady proceeds to
tell him on the phone, no, this is not don't
worry about the sound out of there.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
If you're picking that up. It's not fucking World War
three out there. Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
What it is is they're cutting the grass today. They're
supposed to be cutting it on Thursdays, but they decided
to cut it today when I'm recording my podcast, and
they decided that they have not used any large equipment
all morning. But since I'm recording, let's take out the
biggest fucking equipment we have and make the loudest noise.
I have a little see. I don't know if I'm
(12:37):
gonna complain though, my cheers vibrating a little bit. U
So anyway, proceed to tell the guy they have a line.
Oh no, I do want meals. I'm just having snacks,
And I'm.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Like, what, what the fucking what?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
They don't give a shit what you're high your profits.
They don't care if you're fucking ordering dinner lunch knack.
Apparently they don't care. But this lady also said, uh,
and this is where my blood pressure was going, because
they don't. They just the front staff seemingly does not
give a shit about the customers. The doctors and nurses,
(13:15):
they are the dream team. But then proceeding to tell
you know the one person. I'm on a diet, but
I'll take a small fry and an onion ring. Now, honestly,
I don't know, uh what what it is, but I
know from almost dying that onion rings and fries are
(13:35):
not unless they're approved.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
I don't know. We just we just.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Announced the Presidential Fitness Test is coming back, which I
think that is how many uh how many big macs
you can eat in one sitting and how many diet
cokes you could drink in the day, because that's the
only way I would kind of think about the president
in any fitness form. Now, truthfully, it'll probably be nice
(13:58):
because you'd be getting to McDonald's and all that.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
But if we're going to bring.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Something back called the Presidential Fitness Test, uh, we probably
should have a president uh not his health secretary, which
is in quotations. You can't see it running the thing, right,
I mean, okay, whatever, that's a different story for a
different day. But back on track, it's not it's not
a diet. But then it just kept going and going,
(14:22):
and then the thing it gets me is is if
you're going to do that, that's fine, But if you're
going to eat, do not eat like at your last
meal at a office setting, right, especially a healthcare office
where like the person was bucking. It's like a fucking gremlin,
Like you fucking fed the gremlin. You know, you fucking
(14:44):
fed the gremlin after midnight or whatever you felt maguai
after midnight, and now the gremlin came out.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Holy shit.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
So I was there for over like it felt like
over two hours, and I should have been out of
there with an hour.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
But god, I tell you, man, what a.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Week I've had though, I've it's been a crazy week,
aspire a little feisty. I found a new obsession. My
new obsession is AI. Yes, no, not, it's a I
didn't just find it.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
But I love the AI videos.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Right, you get to create the AI videos, which is awesome.
And I've been messing around and I really have been
trying to take a photo of my two cats and
have them swimming together in a pool. I know it's crazy,
but I'm thinking it would gain some kind of TikTok traction, right,
the two cats two swimming. But what it's doing is
(15:35):
it's taking the two cats and it looks like the
big dog moose is trying to kill the little dog
tinn of dog Nemo like he's holding his head underwater.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I don't know what the fuck's going on. I don't know.
Maybe they're joyfully playing. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
I'll tell you something though, And I'm not even gonna
tell you the full story because there is not an
explicit tag strong enough on the podcast providers for this one.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
But I'm gonna tell you something.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Okay, I'm gonna be transparent because I don't got a
filter today. But here's what happened the other day. I
may or may okay, I did take a gummy. I
took a gummy. I need to relax. I had a
rough day last couple of days ago. Right, took a gummy.
Took a gummy. And then I'm about to walk up
the stairs, shut off all the lights, and there's something
moving in the curtain downstairs, like moving now. I don't know,
(16:24):
but Nemo Nemo, for some reason, he loves to climb
on the curtain and swing around like he's fucking Miley
Cyrus in the Wrecking Ball music video coming like any
I'm like, okay, it's Moose now. In the back of
my mind because if you listen to this podcast, you know,
for a very long time.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
A while ago.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
I told the story like wow, while ago, like years ago,
about our neighbor who said she saw a ghost in
our window. So I have added back in my mind.
But I'm like, no, it's fine, it's just Nemo. He's
doing his you know, my least Cyrus impression. And then
I go upstairs and all I see is with the
closet door open, I see the bigger dog, the bigger cats,
(17:03):
little tiny paws in the ground, and he is his
other pause. He's standing up right, standing up on one
of the shelves in the closet, and he looks at
me like he's done something very wrong. And then I
go in the closet and I didn't see anything, but
then I saw Tony dog. So there's a lot of
stuff going on my head, like there's tiny dog. I
(17:25):
thought tiny dog was downstairs? Do we have a ghost?
I don't know what's going on. It's crazy, fucking ay.
And then on top of it, I go and I'm like, okay,
we're not getting the right the right video, the right
fucking anything on this stuff. So I'm just gonna take
a photo. When I was a kid growing up, I
(17:47):
have no shirt on I'm dancing. It's a video. It's
it's a really funny thing. It's you know, it's just
it's it's it was funny. I posted on TikTok, so
I thought, okay, let me take this photo and say, oh, here,
take this guy in the photo and make him like
he said, chippendale dancing.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
It'll be funny. Uh.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I had it spewed back at me quicker than I've
ever had a message to spewback, saying to me, we
do not support photos of children at this time. So
I don't know if I ended up on a list
now a watch list because of posting my own childhood photo.
And then it got me even more paranoid because I
(18:25):
thought to myself, I have a whole bunch of photo
albums in the garage of me as a kid, and
for some reason, as a kid, I decided to wear
no fucking pants. And I'm not just meaning pants, I'm
meaning everything was gone.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Everything.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I was like fucking Winnie the Pooh, all right, you know,
Winnie the Pooh, just the shirt, no pants, That's how
it was. No underpants, nothing like Winni the fucking Pooh.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Okay. And then I was like, well, How the fuck
do they get those photos process.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Right? How did they get those photos processed? And then
I'm thinking, man, there was a lot of photos to
me with no pants. They got processed somewhere somewhere.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Back in the day.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
There might have been a you know, a photo technician
at the Omni Foods that was a little pervy. I'm thinking.
I'm just guessing. I'm guessing. Okay, I'm guessing, just guessing.
Oh man, I'll tell you though, I'll tell you, I
tell you. But all you can do at the end
of the day is smile. Is this smile really?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
You try?
Speaker 2 (19:27):
You fake it till you make it. You gotta put
you gotta put that smile on your face. You really
got to, because look look up and I say, hey,
I just take this fun podcast with you. Thank you
for letting me vent I the owe my own comedy
special coming up. Yes, you're gonna fall out of your
seats if you hear this one.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I'm hoping you do the Daily Life of Frank Morning Show.
That's something coming. There's a lot of fun things coming.
But you know, before I forget, I don't know if
I said this part because I am old and I'm
forgetting things. Uh what got me is they had music
playing on their phone at the front desk. I'm not
even kidding, Like they like turned on their fucking Spotify
(20:08):
and that was playing in the lobby.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Yeah.

a lot of the passings away this week last week.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
But hey, hey let's have a podcast.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Let's not make this all somber and uh sad uh.
And I'm already cranky as it is, so uh yeah,
we're gonna I think we're gonna think this is the
first time in a long time. We're gonna experience all
emotions today on this podcast.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Journey. No, no, all serious though.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah, it's hearts and prayers to the families and those
you know who knew knew those people closely in the
fans and the fans the printed darkness. Man, I've been
watching a lot of Ozzy Ols more clips from his
reality show, and every time I watch it, I laugh
even harder, even harder and harder and harder and harder. Yeah,
(03:23):
I just laugh at all this stuff, all the craziness,
you know. I laugh like a lot. It's because it's
all the dad moments, right, like when his kids are fighting,
or when like the animals are like jumping on the counter.
There's like a moment where like the cat jumps on
the counter in Assy he's about to make chicken. It's
one of my favorite clips ever, and.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
He's like, fuck off, go fuck off.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
And then he doesn't remember the cat's name. It's like
it's like a parrot, right, you can't remember your kids
name for calling him everything. He's like, fuck off, Gus,
John Mark, Tony, I don't know. Yeah, so it's like, hey,
fuck up. But yeah, yeah, it's crazy. It's crazy, but
(04:09):
yeah it is. It's not like I'm not like, you know,
like like I'm not.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Like, oh man, life's too fast or something like that.
But it can hit you a little bit, right, You
hit you a little bit.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Some of these people that you watch growing up are
passing away, are passing away. But I really thought, man,
the Prince of darkness. He was gonna he was gonna
outlift me. He'd be like one hundred and fifty years old.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Yeah, But you know, I will say this, I had
a doctor appointment. Maybe that's why I'm a little crabby.
I'll tell you what happened, and maybe you'd be like, oh,
I see why. He's a little he's a little feisty today,
he's a little he's a little uh, he's a little.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Wound up, you know. But prefacing it, I love my doctors,
I really do. You know.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I had that really really scary incident back and when
it happened, yeah, I needed to find a dream team,
like I like to call it, and find the right
set of doctors to help me get back on my
healthcare journey.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
So the doctors are awesome. They are awesome.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
The front staff, oh that could be a little bit
uh yeah, Oh.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
My fucking god.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I think that if I had to interact more than
I have to with the front staff, that if they
took my blood price here, they'd be like, holy shit,
we got to meet you right now. Why is your
blood pricere so high? Why is it's so high? But yeah,
the nurses, the doctors, they're great. I think the one
nurse is finally beginning to pick up on my sense
(05:54):
of humor. So, you know, you weigh yourself at the
doctor's office and you're all excited, Did I lose any weight?
And I haven't because I've been like gaining weight, which
is weird. But apparently insulin and stuff you sometimes.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Will gain weight.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
So I was like, here, I go, well, my sugar
is intact, but you know, just keep going up the size.
I already specially have to order my clothes if I
can have a double specially order of now because the
goddamn insulin fuck. But with that said, by sugars are
really good. They're intact. You know, we might be changing
(06:31):
up some of the insulin and some of that kind
of stuff, some of the plan and I'm very happy
with it because I worked really hard to change up
a lot of my dietary things and really changed it up.
Where the point is, I was April and it's made June, July, August,
four months and I've really did a three sixtet. Maybe
not on the scale, because it's the fucking insulin, and
(06:53):
I can't blame it on anything else. I can't be like, oh,
it's because I eat a lot of sugar.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
It's like, no, I don't anymore. So that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It's is what it is. But at least it's good
on there. But when I weighed myself at the doctor's office,
they do it in kilograms or whatever the fuck they
do it in and then the nurses like, do you
want to see that in pounds? I said, no, I
fucking don't. I was like, I probably don't want to
see that in pounds. Then she laughed, Like I laughed,
because you know, you gotta laugh. We make a joke
about your old way, you gotta laugh, so the other
(07:22):
person knows it's okay to laugh too.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
But they're great.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
The front staff, though, holy shit, if I had to,
they would, they would be on a performance improvement plan.
I would definitely be on it. And this has happened
twice now, twice in a row, so I think we're
striking out here. The first time I was about a
couple months ago. There was a little bit of a
delay or a hold up, and it just went crazy.
(07:46):
But this is a more recent incident that I kind
of remember pretty pretty well here because it just happened
about an hour ago or hour and a half ago
and I got my h You know, they don't get
band aids anymore.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
It looks like they give this, like.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
This band around my arm like I'm part of the
fucking militia or something with it. It's annoying me, but
I'm glad because I hate pulling off anything sticky. I cry.
I have a tendency to cry. But uh, just the staff.
So we get done with it. Now, we gotta do
some blood work. You gotta check that A one ce, right,
(08:20):
you gotta check some of that sugar stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
You gotta check it.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
You gotta check it. So we go out of the
waiting room. Because previously the past was you go out
of the waiting room and you sit there and they
call you. It's like an automatic one two three. But
in that meantime, they implemented a new process. Why would
you make this process more difficult than it has to
be because everything is electronic, you have to recheck in. Yes,
(08:44):
you heard me correctly. I'm not not making a joke
out of this. You had to recheck in to the lab.
Nobody you know, said anything from the front staff, Like
they saw you walk out of the room.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
They saw me walk out.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
I saw me sit down in the chair, and I
don't know if it's just I don't know what it is,
because if I think I'm guessing more of a competency thing,
I think it's a little bit of that, because if
I am going out of there and I'm sitting there
and then everybody else is getting called before me, like
(09:17):
I don't want to just fucking see what do you think?
I said, Oh, nothing else to do today, I'm gonna
sit in the fucking doctor waiting room. No no, no, no, no, no, no,
no no, no, no, no, no, no no no. There's
no fucking TVs in there, nothing, no magazines. You're on
your own, bitch. But this is what gets me. And
(09:37):
when I went up there, or my wife did, because
my wife is my hero because I don't like confrontation,
and when she sees something wrong, she will speak up
on it. So when she went there, they go, well
you have to check in, and I'm like, he's like, okay,
so yeah, we check in. But this is what pisses
me off because that that same front area, that front area.
(10:03):
I don't know if it was pot look fucking Friday
or what it was, But first off, I didn't know
you can eat all that food at a desk area,
considering it is a healthcare facility, right, Like I'm fucking
waiting for somebody to open up a bag of peanuts,
like the peanuts you get at the stadium, like, you know,
because he probably had a peanut energy by there.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
They didn't care. They had more.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
They were eating tortilla chips more than I eat tortilla
chips like on a you know, Chicago beer Sunday.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
And that's fine. I'm fine with that.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
What I am not fine with is when you make
your customer in that case number two, and your lunch
order and everything else is number one and the customer
is number two.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
That's what gets me aggravated.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And the fact that there is no customer service as
they proceeded to talk about lunch for forty two minutes. Now,
maybe if we weren't talking about what we were going
to get for lunch for forty two minutes, then possibly
we could have questioned why this guy has walked out
of the room and is sitting in the waiting room
but he's not getting called up. I don't know, because
(11:11):
they did it for everybody else, and I'm a pretty
nice fucking guy. I really am I really am n here,
I'm swearing a little bit, but so what we all swear.
I don't know, though, And I don't know what ticked
me off because the last time I was there, it
was the same goddamn thing. It was the same goddamn
person talking about their lunch order, the same fucking person.
(11:31):
I got to start scheduling my things way in the morning.
Then I'm afraid they're gonna start talking about their breakfast order.
But it was the most I think it pissed me off.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Like at first, I was like, oh, it's all right,
it's okay. I got excited.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
I'm like, oh, I'll get my Americano from Starbucks, like
it's a whole thing. It's like a treat after the doctors.
And then they're talking and this fucking most chaotic order.
I know, the guy who's taking the lunch order at
the restaurant the other line is not a nurse, but
fuck I would give him the Daisy Award.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
I would.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I would have just said, here's the Daisy Award, congratulations
for putting up with that. Because the lady proceeds to
tell him on the phone, no, this is not don't
worry about the sound out of there.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
If you're picking that up. It's not fucking World War
three out there. Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
What it is is they're cutting the grass today. They're
supposed to be cutting it on Thursdays, but they decided
to cut it today when I'm recording my podcast, and
they decided that they have not used any large equipment
all morning. But since I'm recording, let's take out the
biggest fucking equipment we have and make the loudest noise.
I have a little see. I don't know if I'm
(12:37):
gonna complain though, my cheers vibrating a little bit. U
So anyway, proceed to tell the guy they have a line.
Oh no, I do want meals. I'm just having snacks,
And I'm.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Like, what, what the fucking what?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
They don't give a shit what you're high your profits.
They don't care if you're fucking ordering dinner lunch knack.
Apparently they don't care. But this lady also said, uh,
and this is where my blood pressure was going, because
they don't. They just the front staff seemingly does not
give a shit about the customers. The doctors and nurses,
(13:15):
they are the dream team. But then proceeding to tell
you know the one person. I'm on a diet, but
I'll take a small fry and an onion ring. Now, honestly,
I don't know, uh what what it is, but I
know from almost dying that onion rings and fries are
(13:35):
not unless they're approved.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
I don't know. We just we just.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Announced the Presidential Fitness Test is coming back, which I
think that is how many uh how many big macs
you can eat in one sitting and how many diet
cokes you could drink in the day, because that's the
only way I would kind of think about the president
in any fitness form. Now, truthfully, it'll probably be nice
(13:58):
because you'd be getting to McDonald's and all that.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
But if we're going to bring.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Something back called the Presidential Fitness Test, uh, we probably
should have a president uh not his health secretary, which
is in quotations. You can't see it running the thing, right,
I mean, okay, whatever, that's a different story for a
different day. But back on track, it's not it's not
a diet. But then it just kept going and going,
(14:22):
and then the thing it gets me is is if
you're going to do that, that's fine, But if you're
going to eat, do not eat like at your last
meal at a office setting, right, especially a healthcare office
where like the person was bucking. It's like a fucking gremlin,
Like you fucking fed the gremlin. You know, you fucking
(14:44):
fed the gremlin after midnight or whatever you felt maguai
after midnight, and now the gremlin came out.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Holy shit.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
So I was there for over like it felt like
over two hours, and I should have been out of
there with an hour.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
But god, I tell you, man, what a.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Week I've had though, I've it's been a crazy week,
aspire a little feisty. I found a new obsession. My
new obsession is AI. Yes, no, not, it's a I
didn't just find it.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
But I love the AI videos.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Right, you get to create the AI videos, which is awesome.
And I've been messing around and I really have been
trying to take a photo of my two cats and
have them swimming together in a pool. I know it's crazy,
but I'm thinking it would gain some kind of TikTok traction, right,
the two cats two swimming. But what it's doing is
(15:35):
it's taking the two cats and it looks like the
big dog moose is trying to kill the little dog
tinn of dog Nemo like he's holding his head underwater.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I don't know what the fuck's going on. I don't know.
Maybe they're joyfully playing. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
I'll tell you something though, And I'm not even gonna
tell you the full story because there is not an
explicit tag strong enough on the podcast providers for this one.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
But I'm gonna tell you something.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Okay, I'm gonna be transparent because I don't got a
filter today. But here's what happened the other day. I
may or may okay, I did take a gummy. I
took a gummy. I need to relax. I had a
rough day last couple of days ago. Right, took a gummy.
Took a gummy. And then I'm about to walk up
the stairs, shut off all the lights, and there's something
moving in the curtain downstairs, like moving now. I don't know,
(16:24):
but Nemo Nemo, for some reason, he loves to climb
on the curtain and swing around like he's fucking Miley
Cyrus in the Wrecking Ball music video coming like any
I'm like, okay, it's Moose now. In the back of
my mind because if you listen to this podcast, you know,
for a very long time.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
A while ago.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
I told the story like wow, while ago, like years ago,
about our neighbor who said she saw a ghost in
our window. So I have added back in my mind.
But I'm like, no, it's fine, it's just Nemo. He's
doing his you know, my least Cyrus impression. And then
I go upstairs and all I see is with the
closet door open, I see the bigger dog, the bigger cats,
(17:03):
little tiny paws in the ground, and he is his
other pause. He's standing up right, standing up on one
of the shelves in the closet, and he looks at
me like he's done something very wrong. And then I
go in the closet and I didn't see anything, but
then I saw Tony dog. So there's a lot of
stuff going on my head, like there's tiny dog. I
(17:25):
thought tiny dog was downstairs? Do we have a ghost?
I don't know what's going on. It's crazy, fucking ay.
And then on top of it, I go and I'm like, okay,
we're not getting the right the right video, the right
fucking anything on this stuff. So I'm just gonna take
a photo. When I was a kid growing up, I
(17:47):
have no shirt on I'm dancing. It's a video. It's
it's a really funny thing. It's you know, it's just
it's it's it was funny. I posted on TikTok, so
I thought, okay, let me take this photo and say, oh, here,
take this guy in the photo and make him like
he said, chippendale dancing.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
It'll be funny. Uh.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I had it spewed back at me quicker than I've
ever had a message to spewback, saying to me, we
do not support photos of children at this time. So
I don't know if I ended up on a list
now a watch list because of posting my own childhood photo.
And then it got me even more paranoid because I
(18:25):
thought to myself, I have a whole bunch of photo
albums in the garage of me as a kid, and
for some reason, as a kid, I decided to wear
no fucking pants. And I'm not just meaning pants, I'm
meaning everything was gone.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Everything.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I was like fucking Winnie the Pooh, all right, you know,
Winnie the Pooh, just the shirt, no pants, That's how
it was. No underpants, nothing like Winni the fucking Pooh.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Okay. And then I was like, well, How the fuck
do they get those photos process.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Right? How did they get those photos processed? And then
I'm thinking, man, there was a lot of photos to
me with no pants. They got processed somewhere somewhere.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Back in the day.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
There might have been a you know, a photo technician
at the Omni Foods that was a little pervy. I'm thinking.
I'm just guessing. I'm guessing. Okay, I'm guessing, just guessing.
Oh man, I'll tell you though, I'll tell you, I
tell you. But all you can do at the end
of the day is smile. Is this smile really?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
You try?
Speaker 2 (19:27):
You fake it till you make it. You gotta put
you gotta put that smile on your face. You really
got to, because look look up and I say, hey,
I just take this fun podcast with you. Thank you
for letting me vent I the owe my own comedy
special coming up. Yes, you're gonna fall out of your
seats if you hear this one.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I'm hoping you do the Daily Life of Frank Morning Show.
That's something coming. There's a lot of fun things coming.
But you know, before I forget, I don't know if
I said this part because I am old and I'm
forgetting things. Uh what got me is they had music
playing on their phone at the front desk. I'm not
even kidding, Like they like turned on their fucking Spotify
(20:08):
and that was playing in the lobby.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Well, anyway, friends, I hope you have a great week.
Hopefully you are not uh you know, uh turned away
because of a pot look. Enjoy yourself and I will
see you back here next week for more of the
daily life of Frank. Thank you everybody, Let's go bye.
