Speaker 1 (00:01):
But if you're interested in a pan where you just
scream like that, we are roll on.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I think he's saying roll on, Is that right?
Speaker 3 (00:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
It's the name of the song. I never heard this
song before. It's what about deodorant? Or what are they
rolling on? Yeah? That's what British deodorant commercials sound like. Yeah,
makes sense.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
That's how British people do it. They they have to
scream at each other to brush their teeth. Isn't it amazing?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
They don't really brush that often. London was maybe the
most advanced society in the world, and then in droves
they imported third world crap and now London's not the
same anymore. It's just not the same thing as it
once was. Uh, we're aware of how it happened, so
we're gonna put a put a stop to it, right,
and we don't let that happen here too light? Yeah,
(00:45):
I think it might be too late. Yeah, No, I
think he's right about that. I don't know if we're
there's anything we could do about it at this point, Elliot,
you know, well, we make.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
It, we can try it. It'd be a whole lot
cooler if we could. But I don't think we can. Really,
I think it's too late. We're just gonna have to
hand the country over to the Islamic extremists.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
That's that's all. That's laugh. That's the only choice.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
It's their country now, you know they own it. It's
you know, they they had DIBs on it. They said
it was their turn. Jinks, you owe me a country
and next thing, you know, Jinks.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
I remember, those are fun days. No, it's still Jinks
is still in place. My people don't do that much
so much.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, Jinks still qualifies. Yeah, you could do that. You
get a coke out of it.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
You can get a country, you can get London. What
what the hell, what's the matter, Billy. You know, I've
got the Anna Paulina Luna update on my phone. I
got the phone setting. Oh god, I love her. So
if she does anything, announces anything, if there's any new
stories about Anna Paulina Luna, uh, this special app that
(01:46):
I've got will update me. And apparently now she has
announced that she is going to visit El Salvador. Not
the same way the idiots in Maryland were. No, she's
gonna hang out with Kelly, She's not going to see
the deep criminal that everybody wants back so bad. She's
gonna actually go meet with the president up there, and
I think, tell him, you know, good job, she's going
(02:07):
down there. And can we get her to come here
and meet with us and tell us good job? Do
we need to imprison some MS thirteen gang members here
at the station? Well, I don't know that's an interesting idea,
but I'll do it if that's what if that's our
prize at the end of the day.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
There's a bigger issue here, Billy. Well, the real victim
here is Andrew and Drew, Yeah, Andrew Gamberski. That would
be Anna Polina Heluna's husband. If you're if you're Anna
Polina a Lune, have you seen bou Kelly? Have you
seen what this guy looks like? Uh, she's gonna go
He's This dude is slick. I mean, this is the
kind of guy you don't want a loan with your woman?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Say it? You find him to be extremely attractive? I
mean no, But I could tell when a guy's good looking.
I'm not I'm not blind. I could I could tell
an ugly person from a good looking For you have
noticed that he is an attractive man, But Kelly is.
I've noticed how women re act to bou Kelly. Chicks
dig bo Kelly look real recognizes real, game recognizes game.
(03:05):
I could tell when a guy is a player. I
happened to be one myself. And when I see Bukelly,
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, you damn right, my man, mister
Oh gets it. I look at bo Kelly, I look
at mister Oh. I look at Javier Malay, and it's
like this guy, this guy is slaying poo tang. That's right.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
You want now, if you're Andrew Gambertski, the US Air
Force combat controller, you want that.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Dude alone with your wife. No, I don't, thank you,
absolutely not. You don't want him alone with your wife.
For how in a foreign country you don't want him
alone with your wife in the next room, much less
some tropical paradise, Central America. El Salvatory's gonna take her
as the fancy resort, take him out on a yacht,
Probably go on a boat.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Probably gonna go I've never seen anything like that before.
Probably gonna go on some jet skis. Maybe they're gonna
get drink some tequila. You have some oysters. You know,
that's an Afro desiac oh oh really, yeah, I did
not know that, dude, Andrew. I feel bad for Andrew
right now, my man, Andrew, that guy get you get
that guy, an Ice pack Anna Paulina a Luna. I
just want to let you know, if you want to
meet with foreign political leaders, I happen to be the
(04:05):
diplomat in charge of uptown Houston.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
You can meet with me. You can do that. Now
I'm still focusing more on the her than you, and
the story turned into you being a She said, I'm
honored to accept a personal invitation to meet with the
presidentkal Kelly. That's bou Kelly. So apparently all we have
to do is send her a personal invitation, which we
(04:28):
have yet to do, by the way, So she said
she'd be honored to accept a personal invitation. I think
we need to do that, all right, So what are
you thinking, like flowers candy, what should we send her? Well,
we don't want to we don't want to make it look,
you know, to want to make it look like official
business visit, you know, so we'll come up with something.
What's that called when you get the special letter head,
(04:49):
what's that called? I mean special letter?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
You know, you get the letter head with your name
on it. They got a word for that. I forgot
what in her head? No, I never had it before.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Well, you can make that on your computer. You just
you know, do the thing from the office off Kenneth R.
Webster Junior. Make it official. That's that's what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna do that. Yeah, absolutely So when we put
that on there, we put it in some special envelope.
You think we got to get one of those Pope stamps.
We got another problem here? What's happen Billy? I ever
a paragraph? I read more? Problem? Not only is she
(05:20):
gonna go meet this handsome Boukelly guy, she's bringing her
coach chair Vincente Gonzalez with her on the trip. Oh no,
Chinese finger traps. Poor Andrew, this this husband of hers,
I mean, he just he just can't win in this situation. Man,
that's not right. That's not how you do a man
(05:42):
that serves in the military for his country. Man. Maybe
we ought to like pass a hat around, get Andrew
a lap dance from someone, or you know, yeah, I'm
sure he needs your help. Send him to meet some chicks.
So how did he score in a Polina Luna without
your help. I mean, I don't know bou Kelly wasn't
in the picture, then maybe he'll be all right. Boy,
I'm still worried about him, though I know eight's six six.
(06:04):
I love w J As a lot of you are
probably aware now, today's Administrative Professionals Day. It's what administrative
professionals read a book day or something. No, it used
to be called secretary's day, Billy ed, Yeah, times have changed,
you know, opinions vary. Once upon a time secretary's day.
Now I've explain why so many women are here in
the office this morning. Almost every day of the week,
(06:28):
half these people aren't even here. They don't come to
they if they work, they work from home. Now, Billy,
and I think those women are here today because there's
a sales meeting. Those women are sell The sales meeting
was yesterday their account executive. They are waiting for somebody
to spring for free lunch. That's what they're waiting on.
I don't I wouldn't say not to free lunch.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Well, anyway, Hey, I brought this old film strip in
from back when it used to be called Secretary's Day.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
That you know they teach it to kids in college
and what have you. But can you can you spoil
this up for me? Billy I? Did you bring the
projector in here? Wouldn't set you up?
Speaker 3 (06:58):
All right?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Hang on a second, here, spool up the There we go.
This is Janet.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
She's a secretarycretary. He's wearing a two piece wiggle dress
with balero jacket, pantyhose, and high heel puffs. Janet is
typing the day schedule on her Smith Corona typewriter.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Rule.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Here's her boss, mister Johnson. He's inviting her into his
office to take dictationation.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
She walks in.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Mister Johnson is on the phone with his wife. He'll
be telling her to eat dinner without him. Next, he
tells Janet she's going to have to work late. He
wants to thank her on Secretary's Day by taking her
out to dinner. Looks like Janet's going to get a raise,
if you know.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
And what exactly are your demands? We need more lemon pledge?
You need more lemon pledge. Yes, we're not responsible for that.
You should just bring it from your own home. Wolton
and Johnson were director of the Texas Lottery Commission. Has resigned.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
It's the latest shake up at the state's retail gambling enterprise.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
It's a mess.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Multiple investigations into jackpots in the year twenty twenty three
reveal there kind of looks like they were some third
party group was colluding with people in the Texas lottery system.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
To rig the lottery. It's partly that and partly because
they offer you an app to play the lottery. But
if you win and you use the app, then they
don't pay you. That's hurt some feelings. Believe it or not.
Some woman won like eighty three million dollars and she
didn't get paid because they said, well, you use the app,
(08:36):
but you said I could use the app. Well you
could use it to play, but you can't win on it.
See that's the rules. You can use it to play,
but you can't win. You go to a casino or
re read them stories about people playing them slot machines,
and all of a sudden, a slot machine, Oh, it
paid off jackpot one hundred thousand dollars. And then the
guy comes over and goes, oh, now we checked the machine.
It turns out that it was wrong. Okay, if you
(08:58):
give us a mechanical error and you didn't win, nothing.
If you could play but you can't win, then you
can't play, right because the whole that's the game. Now
you see whap people are upset.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Yeah, anyway, the whole thing is very corrupt and it's interesting.
I generally I find the Houston Chronicle to be useless,
but they did explain this, so they call it that
the useless Chronicle. Yeah, the the or the Houston Comical.
But they do have a reporter there that explained the
controversy quite well.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
I'm Eric Dexhammer of the Houston Chronicles investigative team. For
the past year, I've been covering out the Texas Lottery
Commission helped a single player arranged to win a ninety
five million dollar jackpot. Now another player's filed the lawsuit.
He claims the incident cost him nearly one hundred million
dollars and you might actually have a case. In April
twenty twenty three, a single Lotto Texas player essentially guaranteed
(09:47):
he would win the jackpot by buying up virtually every
possible number twenty five million tickets in all. The operation
was planned by a man in Malta, was organized through
a London betting company huh and it was carried out
by Texas online ticket sales companies, and even though it
was unfair to other players, the Texas Lottery Commission actually
assisted the state agency in charge of overseeing the game,
(10:10):
made sure the organizers had plenty of official terminals and
lottery paper to process all those tickets, and its eagerness
to help. It also appears to have ignored several of
its own rules. After the big win, the next person
to match all six lot of numbers was a guy
named Jerry Reid.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
This guy's piss.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
He won the jackpot about a month later. He bought
his ticket at a convenience store outside of Fort Worth.
You're supposed to a lot of jackpots go back to
zero after someone wins, so Reid's pay day was relatively low,
about seven million dollars. This week, he followed the lawsuit
saying that because of all the rules that were broken
in the ninety five million dollar jackpot draw just before
(10:48):
his right, that money should have gone to him instead,
So instead of seven million dollars, he actually should have
won more than one hundred million.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I think he has a valid point.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
If you're buying lottery tickets in a foreign using a
third party app and you're not even an American citizen.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
That's not what a lottery was invented for. And you
know they'll pay that person, but they won't pay the
woman that bought hers just because she used the app
to do it instead of having to go to the store.
What a bunch of flaming douche canoes these. Yeah, I
can see what folks are upset. I cannot stand that
all Texas in charge of the lottery is what they
old to do. Five's in charge. That kind of stuff
wouldn't happen anymore now, believe it or not.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Only I think a system has been designed to prevent
you from handling hundreds of millions of dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
That sounds about right. Some would argue that someone like
you is exactly the kind of person that shouldn't be
put in charge of that, and I can't really argue
against that. Maybe the fact that someone like you was
put in charge of it is the whole reason we
have these problems in the first place. I mean, I'm
just you know, you're starting to get a little personal now.
I'm just saying it seems like you've made your point
and you just won't keep making it. In addition to
you being grossly responsible, taking a little deeper and infinitely untrustworthy,
(11:54):
you also have a certain amount of body owner that
might rub off on the Texas Lottery tickets, and then
not only would we have a corrupt system, but it
would smell like Billy D's bo after a long day
of mowing the lawn. It just smells manly, is all
it is. You're the only guy I've ever met who
sweat smells like chilula. How do you do that? That's
the secret I'll keep all the way to my grave.
(12:15):
I mean, you don't smell as bad as the guy
at the end of the hallway and on my floor there.
But yeah, it happened again. He came outside of it. Yeah,
of his house sister. Every day of it. Now, dude,
the smell of this guy is like slaps me in
the face. Every time I see this guy. It's pungent.
I can tell if he's home when I get off
the elevator because the smell comes down the hallway so bad,
(12:37):
just terrible. And look, I'm not saying that I don't
know what it's like in Pakistan. I have no idea.
But if that's what Pakistan smells like we have to
invade Pakistan. Okay, that's all I know. I'm just saying.
I don't want to be insensitive, but I get the
impression there's something wrong with their food. Help them. Let's
just start a charity to get better smelling food for
people in certain parts of Central and South Asia. If
(13:00):
even if it takes like add in petroleum products and
hard to pronounce chemicals to their food, Okay, what if
that's say? What if the only thing that's keeping our
food from smelling bad is all this fluoride and petroleum
and a lot of it has to do with that.
What if all the stuff that RFK Junior hates is
actually the stuff that's keeping our food from smelling as
disgusting as my neighbor after he makes lunch. Maybe if
(13:21):
the food didn't look and smell so delicious, we wouldn't
all be obese. And maybe that's what these other countries
have got going for them. Their food sucked. See I
was just you don't want to eat it as much.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
I was just aid it because nobody exercises anymore, that's
probably it.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Or they eat too much, you don't exercise enough. Could
it be both? Move around? More eat less, that kind
of thing. And I'm sure you've noticed the sizes since
you travel, you know, to Europe a lot. The sizes
of the well, the portions you get in a restaurant
in Europe differ quite a bit from the portions that
they serve you here in America. Right. You can order
(14:00):
lasagna at Carabos, for example, and it's enough to feed
a family of four that the one serving. Because I
don't know about you, but I never finish an entire
meal in a restaurant. I always either take some home
or split, you know, we share stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
See, this is why you can't squat. You don't finish
your food. Dude, you gotta eat. Yeah, you gotta eat, bro,
you're supposed to eat.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
You gotta do. And lasagna is the key to powerful squats.
Look I hear.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
I find it's best to just like fist bags and
gummy bears right before I gotta go work out.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yeah totally. I just I get those about corn nuts.
Where are you on the corn nuts? I'm not anti cornuts,
It's not my first pick, but I mean, bab I'll
tell you this. Once you go flavor, it's hard to
go back to playing what do you do that with sabby? Yeah,
I mean it good. And you know they got just regular,
just spicy, and then they got wet sabby spicy and
printing on the package. One of them's kind of orange
(14:53):
and then one's green, and that's how you know you
got the green.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
And with sabby is a different kind of spicy. It's
like spicy on the back of your tongue, a little
bit like a horse radish has that flavor to it.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
See, that's exactly why I wonder about you. Sometimes horse
radish that don't make no horse ratish flavored corn nuts?
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (15:11):
I didn't know that's not That's the stupidest thing I've
ever heard, mister Kenneth. You should be ashamed of yourself.
I don't even think we should do celebrity birthdays after this.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
You know, we got to call that all. Yeah, you
have two options. Option A is to stay with your
wife for the rest of your life. Option B B
B B. I choose bing Walton and Johnson Radio Network
But if you're interested in a pan where you just
scream like that, we are roll on.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I think he's saying roll on, Is that right?
Speaker 3 (00:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
It's the name of the song. I never heard this

we're gonna put a put a stop to it, right,

I think it might be too late. Yeah, No, I

and next thing, you know, Jinks.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
I remember, those are fun days. No, it's still Jinks
is still in place. My people don't do that much
so much.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, Jinks still qualifies. Yeah, you could do that. You
get a coke out of it.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
You can get a country, you can get London. What
what the hell, what's the matter, Billy. You know, I've
got the Anna Paulina Luna update on my phone. I
got the phone setting. Oh god, I love her. So
if she does anything, announces anything, if there's any new
stories about Anna Paulina Luna, uh, this special app that

prize at the end of the day.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
There's a bigger issue here, Billy. Well, the real victim
here is Andrew and Drew, Yeah, Andrew Gamberski. That would
be Anna Polina Heluna's husband. If you're if you're Anna

to spring for free lunch. That's what they're waiting on.
I don't I wouldn't say not to free lunch.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Well, anyway, Hey, I brought this old film strip in
from back when it used to be called Secretary's Day.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
That you know they teach it to kids in college
and what have you. But can you can you spoil
this up for me? Billy I? Did you bring the
projector in here? Wouldn't set you up?
Speaker 3 (06:58):
All right?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Hang on a second, here, spool up the There we go.
This is Janet.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
She's a secretarycretary. He's wearing a two piece wiggle dress
with balero jacket, pantyhose, and high heel puffs. Janet is
typing the day schedule on her Smith Corona typewriter.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Rule.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Here's her boss, mister Johnson. He's inviting her into his
office to take dictationation.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
She walks in.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Mister Johnson is on the phone with his wife. He'll
be telling her to eat dinner without him. Next, he
tells Janet she's going to have to work late. He
wants to thank her on Secretary's Day by taking her
out to dinner. Looks like Janet's going to get a raise,
if you know.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
And what exactly are your demands? We need more lemon pledge?
You need more lemon pledge. Yes, we're not responsible for that.
You should just bring it from your own home. Wolton
and Johnson were director of the Texas Lottery Commission. Has resigned.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
It's the latest shake up at the state's retail gambling enterprise.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
It's a mess.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Multiple investigations into jackpots in the year twenty twenty three
reveal there kind of looks like they were some third
party group was colluding with people in the Texas lottery system.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
To rig the lottery. It's partly that and partly because
they offer you an app to play the lottery. But
if you win and you use the app, then they
don't pay you. That's hurt some feelings. Believe it or not.
Some woman won like eighty three million dollars and she
didn't get paid because they said, well, you use the app,
(08:36):
but you said I could use the app. Well you
could use it to play, but you can't win on it.
See that's the rules. You can use it to play,
but you can't win. You go to a casino or
re read them stories about people playing them slot machines,
and all of a sudden, a slot machine, Oh, it
paid off jackpot one hundred thousand dollars. And then the
guy comes over and goes, oh, now we checked the machine.
It turns out that it was wrong. Okay, if you
(08:58):
give us a mechanical error and you didn't win, nothing.
If you could play but you can't win, then you
can't play, right because the whole that's the game. Now
you see whap people are upset.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Yeah, anyway, the whole thing is very corrupt and it's interesting.
I generally I find the Houston Chronicle to be useless,
but they did explain this, so they call it that
the useless Chronicle. Yeah, the the or the Houston Comical.
But they do have a reporter there that explained the
controversy quite well.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
I'm Eric Dexhammer of the Houston Chronicles investigative team. For
the past year, I've been covering out the Texas Lottery
Commission helped a single player arranged to win a ninety
five million dollar jackpot. Now another player's filed the lawsuit.
He claims the incident cost him nearly one hundred million
dollars and you might actually have a case. In April
twenty twenty three, a single Lotto Texas player essentially guaranteed
(09:47):
he would win the jackpot by buying up virtually every
possible number twenty five million tickets in all. The operation
was planned by a man in Malta, was organized through
a London betting company huh and it was carried out
by Texas online ticket sales companies, and even though it
was unfair to other players, the Texas Lottery Commission actually
assisted the state agency in charge of overseeing the game,
(10:10):
made sure the organizers had plenty of official terminals and
lottery paper to process all those tickets, and its eagerness
to help. It also appears to have ignored several of
its own rules. After the big win, the next person
to match all six lot of numbers was a guy
named Jerry Reid.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
This guy's piss.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
He won the jackpot about a month later. He bought
his ticket at a convenience store outside of Fort Worth.
You're supposed to a lot of jackpots go back to
zero after someone wins, so Reid's pay day was relatively low,
about seven million dollars. This week, he followed the lawsuit
saying that because of all the rules that were broken
in the ninety five million dollar jackpot draw just before
(10:48):
his right, that money should have gone to him instead,
So instead of seven million dollars, he actually should have
won more than one hundred million.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I think he has a valid point.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
If you're buying lottery tickets in a foreign using a
third party app and you're not even an American citizen.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
That's not what a lottery was invented for. And you
know they'll pay that person, but they won't pay the
woman that bought hers just because she used the app
to do it instead of having to go to the store.
What a bunch of flaming douche canoes these. Yeah, I
can see what folks are upset. I cannot stand that
all Texas in charge of the lottery is what they
old to do. Five's in charge. That kind of stuff
wouldn't happen anymore now, believe it or not.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Only I think a system has been designed to prevent
you from handling hundreds of millions of dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
That sounds about right. Some would argue that someone like
you is exactly the kind of person that shouldn't be
put in charge of that, and I can't really argue
against that. Maybe the fact that someone like you was
put in charge of it is the whole reason we
have these problems in the first place. I mean, I'm
just you know, you're starting to get a little personal now.
I'm just saying it seems like you've made your point
and you just won't keep making it. In addition to
you being grossly responsible, taking a little deeper and infinitely untrustworthy,
(11:54):
you also have a certain amount of body owner that
might rub off on the Texas Lottery tickets, and then
not only would we have a corrupt system, but it
would smell like Billy D's bo after a long day
of mowing the lawn. It just smells manly, is all
it is. You're the only guy I've ever met who
sweat smells like chilula. How do you do that? That's
the secret I'll keep all the way to my grave.
(12:15):
I mean, you don't smell as bad as the guy
at the end of the hallway and on my floor there.
But yeah, it happened again. He came outside of it. Yeah,
of his house sister. Every day of it. Now, dude,
the smell of this guy is like slaps me in
the face. Every time I see this guy. It's pungent.
I can tell if he's home when I get off
the elevator because the smell comes down the hallway so bad,
(12:37):
just terrible. And look, I'm not saying that I don't
know what it's like in Pakistan. I have no idea.
But if that's what Pakistan smells like we have to
invade Pakistan. Okay, that's all I know. I'm just saying.
I don't want to be insensitive, but I get the
impression there's something wrong with their food. Help them. Let's
just start a charity to get better smelling food for
people in certain parts of Central and South Asia. If
(13:00):
even if it takes like add in petroleum products and
hard to pronounce chemicals to their food, Okay, what if
that's say? What if the only thing that's keeping our
food from smelling bad is all this fluoride and petroleum
and a lot of it has to do with that.
What if all the stuff that RFK Junior hates is
actually the stuff that's keeping our food from smelling as
disgusting as my neighbor after he makes lunch. Maybe if
(13:21):
the food didn't look and smell so delicious, we wouldn't
all be obese. And maybe that's what these other countries
have got going for them. Their food sucked. See I
was just you don't want to eat it as much.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
I was just aid it because nobody exercises anymore, that's
probably it.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Or they eat too much, you don't exercise enough. Could
it be both? Move around? More eat less, that kind
of thing. And I'm sure you've noticed the sizes since
you travel, you know, to Europe a lot. The sizes
of the well, the portions you get in a restaurant
in Europe differ quite a bit from the portions that
they serve you here in America. Right. You can order
(14:00):
lasagna at Carabos, for example, and it's enough to feed
a family of four that the one serving. Because I
don't know about you, but I never finish an entire
meal in a restaurant. I always either take some home
or split, you know, we share stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
See, this is why you can't squat. You don't finish
your food. Dude, you gotta eat. Yeah, you gotta eat, bro,
you're supposed to eat.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
You gotta do. And lasagna is the key to powerful squats.
Look I hear.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
I find it's best to just like fist bags and
gummy bears right before I gotta go work out.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yeah totally. I just I get those about corn nuts.
Where are you on the corn nuts? I'm not anti cornuts,
It's not my first pick, but I mean, bab I'll
tell you this. Once you go flavor, it's hard to
go back to playing what do you do that with sabby? Yeah,
I mean it good. And you know they got just regular,
just spicy, and then they got wet sabby spicy and
printing on the package. One of them's kind of orange
(14:53):
and then one's green, and that's how you know you
got the green.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
And with sabby is a different kind of spicy. It's
like spicy on the back of your tongue, a little
bit like a horse radish has that flavor to it.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
See, that's exactly why I wonder about you. Sometimes horse
radish that don't make no horse ratish flavored corn nuts?
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (15:11):
I didn't know that's not That's the stupidest thing I've
ever heard, mister Kenneth. You should be ashamed of yourself.
I don't even think we should do celebrity birthdays after this.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
You know, we got to call that all. Yeah, you
have two options. Option A is to stay with your
wife for the rest of your life. Option B B
