Speaker 1 (00:00):
Christopher Media. Let's make some noise from Asthma Core Studios
near Detroit, Michigan. It's the Weedsman Podcast. And now you
have smoked yourself retard. You're the Weedsmen.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Welcome to the Weedsman Podcast. I'm Chris, I'm Aaron. I'm
playing hiatus.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Welcome back.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Yeah. Can I say this?

Speaker 4 (00:28):
What's you can say anything to you? This is your podcast,
our podcast. It's our Yes, but it's yours. It's yours
is point, it's yes, but I'm saying you have one yes,
we both yes.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
I will say at this point, after ten years, it
finally feels like I'm on a real podcast because I'm
sitting in someone's living room. Like we've had a studio.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
And stuff, right, Yeah, this is probably closer to how
most people not that like ours was like I mean,
you say studio people have like an image in their minds.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Yeah. It.

Speaker 4 (01:00):
So we wrote a ruined and basement that was purpose for,
you know, specifically for doing that thing sitting down and
everything set up.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
You have to break it down.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
Yeah, And it's not just like yeah, a couple of
yettie mics like hy cabled into somebody's iPhone.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yeah, we actually tried to make like an actual like
broadcast studio set up to do it.

Speaker 5 (01:20):
Now we're sitting on your couch.

Speaker 4 (01:22):
Now this is the more modular Verde where this is
a temporary studio.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
I guess as mccor is one.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
Point five, No, two point five, two point five, it's right.

Speaker 5 (01:32):
Yeah, we're going on three point zero.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
Yeah, we'll see what three point oh looks like be
in a bedroom when you get when you get settled
in myself in storage.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
Yeah, long story short, I moved and the date.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
That I moved out of my house is sixty days
short of the day that the new people are moving
out of their house. So I'm currently crashing with my
mom and you got a temporary set up here.

Speaker 5 (01:54):
Yeah, for the right, I'll say this in front of
a mic.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
I am living with a senior citizen and I'm the
first one goes to bed and I'm the first one
who wakes up.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
Yeah, oh god, but you're working a job that requires
you to like be there at crack a dawn.

Speaker 5 (02:05):
It's true, but she's retired.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
My mom is like ten o'clock every night, watch a TV,
hanging with her doll.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
I'm a fucking night owl. Man like minut and I
don't have a job. I'm just like my sleep schedule
is THU.

Speaker 5 (02:15):
Gets up at like eight living the dream.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Cousin who said he recently retired, he said, every every
night is Friday night, and every morning Sunday morning.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
Right, Well, I'm thinking when I retire, how is that
going to happen?

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Schev That is, social Security is soon going to collapse,
so I mean, even if it holds. They saw it
coming with the baby boomers. They were like, oh, if
all these people collect social Security, there's not going to
be any money for it.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
And well we're in the middle of it right now.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
Yeah, I just don't see I'm gonna I'm gonna be
working a job, money kids for it or another until
I just keel over somewhere.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
There's no way around it.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
I saw a map that was like minimum income to
just own a house. Her state, Michigan was amongst the
lower and was it seventy eight point five? I think,
Oh cool, I was beating the odds for a while. Yeah,
it just keeps getting frey. I'm not there yet. Let's
just say that.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Well, well no, I'm over that. The new house we
have to combine to be over that. Don't get me wrong,
I've been beating the odds for a while. Yeah, I'm
just cheap.

Speaker 5 (03:25):
I guess Google, you are you? You?

Speaker 3 (03:28):
You are not.

Speaker 4 (03:30):
You've never been like consumed with like ooh, that shiny
new thing out there that I've.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
Been told to several people who don't know each other.
I'm not a conspicuous consumer.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
No, not at all. Like I don't think you know.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
If I like something, I'll buy it.

Speaker 5 (03:43):
That's proof and all the tech I own, sure, but.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
You but you invest in stuff that you know you're
gonna use, and you're gonna use it a lot, So
like why not get the right thing that's gonna work
for a long time.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
That's just I think that's something from like warm Buffett.
If it's something you're gonna use all the time, get
the good one.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Like if they say that, they say to do it
with like a bed a TV, Like I will say,
I cheaped out on the bed for the last seven years.
And I don't cheap out on the bed, folks. Yeah,
I felt like I owned a slab of granite for
the last seven years.

Speaker 5 (04:17):
I like a firm bed. Oh no, my back needs
a soft cushy bed.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
Yeah, I do need more gift because I'm a side sleeper.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
Yeah, I need to.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
I apparently I move around to my I go sleep
on my back, generally wake up on my back.

Speaker 5 (04:32):
But I know throughout the night I'm moving around like I'm.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
I've been told I move around a lot by people
who spy on me. They called me, hey, you know
you move around? Yeah, that's right. What you can't see
in the cameras. I'm also sweating like a maniac. Actually,
I'm looking forward to that, like we're finally hitting the
stretch of like like spring really feels like a tear.
We have numerous warm days where you can just have

(04:57):
a t shirt and you're not sweating either.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
My nit had a couple of times last week, but
I think those days are over.

Speaker 4 (05:03):
Yeah, but I sleep way better in hot weather than
I do in cold weather, because in cold weather, I
feel like I want to bundle and I bundle up
so much that I end up sweating through the night.
And I have a hard time finding that happy medium
where it's like warm weather, it's like it's either a
sheet or nothing at all. And I might sweat a

(05:25):
little because it's hot outside I'm a better and cold
not waking up in a fucking puddle.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
I have to have something on me, so I'm better
in cold weather because right, it's just another blanket and
bundle up.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
I can just spread on a man.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
If I'm trying to like yeah, if I'm trying to
go to sleep and I got nothing on me, like
just laying there like like I can't.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
I can't do it. It sounds like heaven to me. So,
so what's been going on since we've been out?

Speaker 2 (05:52):
I missed a lot.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
I don's been what since like March?

Speaker 4 (05:55):
Yeah, I'm sorry everyone who still has us in your
feed and they're like, oh shit, these guys are still
doing it, not dead. Sorry for the delay, you know,
we had it.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
It's we tried a couple of remote options. They didn't work.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
Remote just didn't work out well. And I mean we
could do it. I mean there's plenty of technology now
on the internet, like you can get programs, but like
you want to invest money in something that's just going
to be a temporary solution and not ideal anyway. The
show is I think best done face to face, Yes,
you know, and it's also an excuse to get together

(06:31):
and h yeah. So I'm glad we found a stable solution,
but anytime, like fucking PC's man, I have no luck
moving them from locational location. And I'm like, I literally
like put this thing in the backseat and buckled it up,
and did you give.

Speaker 5 (06:49):
It a pep talk?

Speaker 2 (06:49):
It's just you pet it before you move, like, all right, buddy, yeah,
I mean for a ride. I'm not taking you to
the farm. It's the same, yeah, taking you upstate to
the computer farm.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Next next place this thing moves too, is going to
be junkyard in the sky and stop acting up.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
But yeah, just uh it's it was.

Speaker 4 (07:10):
It's the same computer that we were using at the
last place, but it just stopped working properly.

Speaker 5 (07:17):
So I don't know.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
I threw a whole bunch more shit at it, and
it seems to it's actually probably way overpowered, even though
it's more than a decade old. Honestly, it's running so
like a champ, running like a champ. Now, let's we'll
get us up and running until we get into the studio,
which at one at that point the computer will fail
and won't be down for another couple of months while
we can figure out how to get that up and running.

Speaker 5 (07:40):
We should just bank some shows now right.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
So uh yeah, A world's going crazy since our last podcast.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
Sure, I feel like it's just been going nuts for
the last ten years. So I got a house in
the middle of nowhere.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
Trump's got a new plane. That's what the newest outrage
is about.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
I guess yeah, with a tar game my jet.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
It gave him a four hundred million dollar jet.

Speaker 5 (08:04):
Right, what do we gotta do? What do we gotta do?

Speaker 6 (08:07):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (08:08):
Like's like clothe it, feed it.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
You have to give someone a handy to get this
thing or what I mean?

Speaker 3 (08:15):
This is good.

Speaker 4 (08:16):
This is like somebody giving your kid a horse for
a birthday present. The kid, the kids elated.

Speaker 5 (08:23):
And wants to ride around on it, and.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
All you can think about is, what the fuck am
I going to do with a horse?

Speaker 3 (08:29):
Where am I going to keep it? What am I
going to do with this?

Speaker 4 (08:32):
And then it's gonna be air Force X and then
the and then the kid tells you that they want
to ride it to school every day. I want to
take it everywhere because right he of course he wants
this thing to be his Air Force one, right, which
means an intense amount.

Speaker 5 (08:49):
Of retrofitting, which is going to cost.

Speaker 4 (08:52):
Three to four times as much as what the whatever.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
Don't say it's done, it's gone.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
Yeah, So like you know one point two billion dollars
or something that it's going to cost us. That's tax
payer money that pays for I agree, yeah, yeah, to
retrofit this thing, and it's probably not going to be
done by the time Trump's out of office. If you're
ready for the next guy, right first, I mean first

(09:18):
first term for a second term. So if work does
proceed on this, I would just assume that Trump has
no intentions of going anywhere.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
I mean, if it's.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
Like if only just because they're like my jets finally done,
you want to me one now?

Speaker 3 (09:35):
And I find like it's all gold.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Well there, I mean, they're right, there is nothing that
says he can't be vice president, right.

Speaker 4 (09:42):
Well, I guess, but what does that mean, like, oh,
he's like shadow president?

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Well yeah, like saying like the because he even came
out was a couple of weeks ago and said he
ain't going to go for a third term. But I said,
like the legal ways, the ways it wouldn't outrage if
he's if he's someone's vice presidential candidate. Is there anything
that says he can't do that, like Advance wants to run, like, hey,
I'll run for president, you be vice president. Is there
anything that says that can't happen?

Speaker 4 (10:08):
I mean, so, you know, I've been I'm still rewatching veep.
And this happens in that. So the arc of her
career she starts off. We meet her as vice president
to a president that has isolated her, throwing her a
few you know, here's some projects to work on. Basically,
here's some crans in a book. Go sit at that

(10:30):
table and leave me alone. Camel ers, yes, yeah, And
then that president ends up stepping down, which makes her president.
She runs to become president for the next election, loses. Actually,
oh she's gerald Ford. She ties, right, she ties, and

(10:52):
in this weird twist of events because of the way
that like I think it's a tie, it was a
tie in the electoral college, tie in the Senate, then
it has to go to the House. If it goes
to the House, they actually picked between the two vice presidents,
and so her vice president was the likely candidate, at
which point he says, if I do get to be president,

(11:13):
do you want to be my VIEP, and she says, literally,
co fuck yourself, but she does actually like the thought
of her like losing complete power gets to her and
she does eventually come around and agree to be vice president,
but he ends up losing anyways.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
It was what's his name House Louri? Yeah, Hugh Lourie plays.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
Her VIEP or a VIEP candidate in this that h
and he's so good in it. Yeah, So, I like,
initially I was thinking, I can't imagine Trump doing that,
but I was like, well, no, somebody you know.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
I just there's a story.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
That I just watched where very egotistical and corrupt person
you know, had that same arc and found her way
around to be in It was deal.

Speaker 5 (12:03):
Be our second in commands Again? Can I still run
on the plane? I sew them in?

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Yeah, right, because her, I mean so like the season
I'm watching that there's six and seven of her like
out of Office, and so I'm in season six where
it's like a big transition for her.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
You're talking about Trump. Let's reel it back.

Speaker 4 (12:25):
You have a nice plane, got a nice plane, it's
gonna be all gold and by the time they're done
with it, right, how do you it's just insane.

Speaker 5 (12:35):
But it's a gift. They're giving it to me, right.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
It loved me so much they wanted to give me
this plane.

Speaker 4 (12:42):
And the Russians gave me a special clock, right, and
they said it should sit.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
In the old whole office right.

Speaker 5 (12:49):
All the sky, get it across the street.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
It was staying in this bay, and told me to
bring it over here.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
This one has to be plugged in.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
I know it's a wind up clock, but you know
there's a special like mechanism in it, so you have
to plug it in. Like, come on, dude, how is
it like how you cannot just accept these things from
foreign countries. I don't even if there are allies, certain
things that we should just have completely in house.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Right, checking in for my flight, and this gentleman came
up and he handed me a suitcase, right, and then
he ran away.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
How many drugs is that they're going to be packed
with when it shifts over? They're like, I think they're
going to check the president's plane. Yeah, yeah, it's.

Speaker 5 (13:32):
It's just going to cost that's.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
A good point. I mean, tons of fentanyl are going
to be in this plane now knowingly.

Speaker 4 (13:38):
And to have have a leader that is so easily
played in that way. You know they had a great
negotiation with them because they knew exactly how is this
the art of the deal right? First of all, be
completely transparent and what you love, let people give it
to you to leverage.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
I hate going to have this because whenever something ludicrous
like this comes up, you know what feeling I get.

Speaker 5 (14:02):
He's like, well, this guy at least knows where he is.
This was the better where he is, This was the
better choice.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Talk about the election, Like I said, anytime something.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
Ludicrous like Trump, like versus prison.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
No, I'm saying for a person to run our country
the choice that we were given in November, and just
versus the last guy like he at.

Speaker 5 (14:23):
Least knows where he is.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
I don't know, Like ask him what he did today,
he could give you an answer, Like did you see
the Biden sixty minutes interview?

Speaker 3 (14:29):
I don't have a strong argument.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
And it's like because I'm thinking, at least Kamala could
be puppeted properly.

Speaker 5 (14:36):
Could she? Though? But did you see Biden's most recent interview.
There's a lot of this is allegedly edited too.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
There's a lot of dead space in between his answers,
and it wasn't a choice between Biden or Trump anymore.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
You were done with Biden by who they.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
Found a small nodule in his anus This week Trumps
fun story, wild stuff Trump Biden.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Oh shock, he's getting the guy with ailmens has more ailments, right, Like.

Speaker 4 (15:08):
If you're out of power, I can understand like this
report on this if it's the president, right, but once
you're out of power, we don't have to hear about
your right like top story, he's got access to the.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Best healthcare.

Speaker 5 (15:29):
Top story. Old guy's getting older.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
He's got access to the best healthcare in the world.
So I'm sure he'll be fine. Yeah, I'm sure he's
spent having regular screenings. They found what like how long
would it have been since Biden's last week?

Speaker 3 (15:43):
He's fine.

Speaker 4 (15:44):
This is not going to like he's not going to
miss a step over this.

Speaker 5 (15:48):
Right, you might miss a couple other steps an see
you tripped over.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
So yeah, we don't need to know that, Thank you.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
ABC News. Oh, we got a new pope.

Speaker 5 (15:58):
Missed that.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
We got dub Poe the Pope and SNL Whift on
that one.

Speaker 5 (16:03):
Come on, like George Wentz busy.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
They didn't do that.

Speaker 4 (16:06):
That was my idea to do that, like the Bears sketch,
they'd be excited about.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
The new pope.

Speaker 4 (16:12):
Was the first pope that's seen a Cubs games.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
An American pope. No, no, hey, you watch your tongue.
He's a white Sox fan. I get you shot in
Chicago making that mistake.

Speaker 4 (16:23):
Wait, it's white where's white Sox Chicago.

Speaker 5 (16:25):
One's north side, one's south side. Yeah, the Chicago has
two teams. They do.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
They're like Midwest New York. As far as size American pope.
They said there would never be an American pope. Whoever
they are, they're wrong.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Troit never had two teams.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Used to be big though.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
Not like need two teams big like New York and
l are like to be two teams.

Speaker 4 (16:48):
Big ch nineteen forty and nineteen sixty, like Detroit was
pretty big.

Speaker 5 (16:54):
True, did Chicago? Only it's only baseball.

Speaker 3 (16:59):
Yeah, but Chicago's just so sprawling.

Speaker 5 (17:01):
It's only based every other sport. One team.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
We lost chut Lemon recently. Yes, yeah, what a Detroit
Tiger that was.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
Here's Chicago White Sox.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Oh he's a White Sox before. Yeah, he played for
the White Sox before he played for the Tigers.

Speaker 4 (17:17):
Oh before yeah, right, did he end his career with
the Tigers? He did, Yeah, and it seemed like it
seemed like more than a decade that he was on
the team. But he was definitely there for the nineteen
eighty four Tigers. That's like, that's as far as I
went with sports, like the eighties Tigers. That's that's all

(17:39):
I cared about. I didn't care about any other sports
or anything else. And part of it was about the
playing cards because it was so fun to like be
able to like get the cards and have all the stats.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
And then like and then see him in action.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Baseball cards are still around, yeah, yeah, they're a whole
different racket now.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
Yeah, but they like in the eighties baseball cards. N
of these baseball cards had just expanded to other things
like uh, you had like your movie theme like Et
and Temple of Doom I remember were big. They had
whole sets of cards that you collect, could collect, and
I had a bunch of those X Men cards. But

(18:17):
maybe that's not until like the nineties when X Men
was big. Things like that, but it never caught on
for other sports. I know they made, they have made
and probably maybe they still do make hockey cards and NFL,
but it never sports.

Speaker 5 (18:33):
But you know, baseball cards cards.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
Never, it was never a thing like baseball cards were.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
Well I think baseball cards are what started the whole.

Speaker 4 (18:42):
Sure, yeah, all the all the like media stuff was
just a spin off of baseball cards. They were just
aping it and other sports aped it too, but like
it just for some reason, I don't know, it seemed like, well,
I guess baseball is probably more stat heavy game than
football is.

Speaker 7 (19:02):
Oh now these days either stats like rule both of them.
Baseball has become a lot more stat oriented though in
the last fifteen.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Years, probably ever since Moneyball.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Right, but yeah, but football even more, like they're both
pretty but yeah, but baseball there's like all kinds of shit.
Now there's ops and war and all this other shit
that I probably don't even even know about and would
say wrong if I even tried to say it.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
What about this baseball stuff?

Speaker 2 (19:33):
Yes, okay, is your slugging percentage?

Speaker 5 (19:36):
Yes, I think that's.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Your I forget, Like, yeah, there's so much war is
wins above replacement, that's a picture thing, Like, yeah, there's
all kinds of shit now win's above replaced.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
So it's like a ratio, like how many wins did
you get versus.

Speaker 5 (19:55):
How many times you were replaced? I think stretch.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
I'm grilling on stuff that you've started the conversation with that.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
I don't know about that.

Speaker 5 (20:04):
I have no clue on most of its some.

Speaker 4 (20:06):
Random acarnyms that I've heard in the ether. Yeah, first
American pope. I guess does that mean anything? I mean,
you're a raised religious what does that mean?

Speaker 2 (20:18):
The first American pope? And they always said there would
never be an American pope. I don't know why would
have to be, but yeah, one got through.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
One got through, had to be eventually, but it seems
like it seems wrong, like it seems like the pope
should be European.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Right, we'll see in my life he's been what a
Polish guy, an Italian guy?

Speaker 5 (20:42):
And then what was the guy that just died?

Speaker 3 (20:46):
Like is a German dude?

Speaker 5 (20:48):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (20:50):
Ratzenberger, Yes, Benedict, that was like the shortest lived of
our that's the pope from modern times.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
That's the pope who didn't die. Just like I've had
enough of poping.

Speaker 4 (21:01):
Yeah, yep, Hey, guys, if you're gonna keep calling me
the Nazi Pope, come out all right, it's not fun anymore.

Speaker 5 (21:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
Yeah, for most popes, the bubble car is just perfunctory.
I feel like I need it.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
It's giving me an ulcer.

Speaker 5 (21:19):
Beeps every time you hit it.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
Apparently, yeah, your little your device there.

Speaker 4 (21:26):
It's got a fucking quite the light show going on
the side of it too.

Speaker 5 (21:31):
Huh it does. I guess the kids like this one.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
I like it because it has a digital readout of
how much vape juice I have left?

Speaker 4 (21:38):
Oh really, it knows how much juice? Yes, oh bro,
yeah that might be worth it twenty bucks.

Speaker 5 (21:46):
It last me two weeks.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
Well that's a that's a disposalsable. What the fuck?

Speaker 4 (21:52):
Yeah, dude, all that fucking ship is going in the trash.

Speaker 5 (21:57):
Yeah, man, I can't. I can't take We should drive
electric cars.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
That is a that as a rave as fuck like
fade device though.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Oh wait, what's the brand? What does it say on
the side?

Speaker 5 (22:10):
Geek bar?

Speaker 4 (22:11):
Oh, geek bar because I remember geek fad or is
that the same company or they just I think so?
Oh it is, yeah, because the logo, like the font,
I should say I.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
Think it's the same company. Just the kids like the
bar vapes.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah, okay, I mean I had a number of their devices.
I liked them.

Speaker 5 (22:28):
I did too.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
The only reason I stopped is because they're uh. I
couldn't find their pods anymore.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
For them, it's sane. It started becoming a hassle to
get their ship.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
So I went with, like, okay, what does everybody have?

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Kind of why I started on disposables. These seem to
be more readily available. Yeah. Yeah, I looked at cigarette
prices the other day. You're twenty bucks is like two
days of cigarettes.

Speaker 4 (22:53):
Now, fuck that, Jesus, that's an expensive habit. I see
like less and less people smoking though, even in the hood. Yeah,
you're in Detroit. We had a guy started work that.
We're in Detroit right now. We're very near and I'm
often there.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
You guys started work today. You know Mikey B. He
used to be on the show. Mikey B still smokes
the analog serotes. He is now like the weirdo everyone
else vapes. Yeah, I remember when you were If you vaped,
you were the weirdo. Never in my friends come up
with the acronym.

Speaker 5 (23:27):
Uh. It came out to cock or dick or something.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Oh, penis personal electronic nicotine inhalation system. These were like
thirty year old men then in their thirties came up
with this like it never stops by by the way, everybody,
it never stops.

Speaker 4 (23:46):
Your friend, it's just yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember, like
I was an early adopter of the vapes, and.

Speaker 5 (23:53):
Now they all vape. By the way, I.

Speaker 4 (23:54):
Wouldn't write, I wouldn't do it in front of other smokers. Yeah,
I have to go off into my own little space
and vapor it.

Speaker 5 (24:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
My girlfriend was asking me, like when do the dick
and fire joke stuff like never because her her her
son is nine, has discovered that like farts are funny,
or her four year old daughter has also discovered it too.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (24:16):
I was like, I'd like to tell you it stops,
but it doesn't.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
Every now and then at work, if I'm working with
like my nephew or something, We'll be in someone's backyard
and I'll just fucking just rip one and he laughs, like.

Speaker 5 (24:26):
It's just it keeps going, and get used to it.
You had a boy, there's no reason not to find
it funny. Dick joke is always funny.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
Yes, doesn't mean these things are funny in all situations.
But that's being adult, is just knowing when to find
those situations when it's the right time to openly fart.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Yes, And sometimes, now you're over forty, you get up
from a chair and you fart. There's no control, it's
just it happens. I tell the guys all the time, like, dude,
shit just starts happening. Like over forty, being in the
middle of the night is just now fact of life.
And sometimes you fart when you get up from a chair.
It doesn't matter what kind of physical shape you're in.
You're just aging. And ladies, we know what happens to you.

Speaker 5 (25:08):
Two.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
I've started taking pre probiotics every day, and my farts
are glorious.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
Oh since I've been last year Greek yogurt and protein powder. Dude,
I could power like a small city some days.

Speaker 4 (25:26):
I started doing it because I got to the point
where like, every time I ate a meal, I would
feel like super bloated, and I wasn't farting a lot,
And yeah, I don't like, I don't feel bloated anymore,
and I just fart away and I love it. So
they're going to start doing road tests here in Michigan

(25:50):
for what for cannabis. They're starting to incorporate a cannabis
swab test and a new bill.

Speaker 5 (26:00):
Actually, I don't think it's passed. Was saying a new bill.
It's got to get through.

Speaker 3 (26:04):
So, but that's the proposition.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
Who proposed it, because that's how politics works now?

Speaker 5 (26:11):
Is it a deer right?

Speaker 2 (26:12):
Yeah? No, I don't.

Speaker 5 (26:13):
I don't know the background about it enough.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
Because if it's an R in Michigan, it'll get swapped.
It'll get swatted down right away because our government's all blue.

Speaker 4 (26:23):
And they let's see, I've got some prosal proposes allowing
police to use road science toliva tests to detect drug
use and suspected impaired drivers.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
I think, what kind of drug use? So many people
are hopped up on fucking prescription meds out.

Speaker 4 (26:42):
There driving, but THC, cocaine and fentanyl is the ones
they list in here.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
So it's cool if someone's whacked up in like four klonopin,
it's cool for them to be driving.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
Yeah, there's some like micrograms of THC per mill a
lid of blood and ratio.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
Limit that they've.

Speaker 4 (27:05):
They've devised that that's like the acceptable limit for driving,
you know, much like a blood alcohol level. Is that
how testing for alcohol works? Per like per how do
you factor in per milli liter of blood? Or did
they just saying the average person has this much blood

(27:25):
in their system and using.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
That as like a constant seven pints in us or
some ship.

Speaker 4 (27:32):
Yeah, but give or take? So I mean those set
like uh like, well, like the.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
Same number of teeth, Well, give you take, We'll start
out with the same number of teeth.

Speaker 5 (27:47):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (27:47):
Maybe it's maybe it's actually how the equipment measures, like
it's able to by just how many particles it finds,
it's able to extrapolate like.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
We know, like what I deal with with work like
we do like parts per million maybe something like that, Like.

Speaker 4 (28:07):
Right, but you have to know what your total is.
Well I'm guessing what your.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Human body has a probably there's a control of We
all have.

Speaker 4 (28:17):
The same amount of blood, and I think this is why,
Like I mean, they have to set a limit for
blood alcohol. But that limit affects you know, a six
foot three hundred pound man different than a five foot
one hundred and ten pound woman.

Speaker 5 (28:35):
You know what I mean. Well, the numerical limit is
point oh eight for anybody.

Speaker 4 (28:40):
Well, look if you if you had, like, I know,
I have to put this many parts per million to
this chemical in this pool to achieve this whatever I want,
you know, the algae to go away, right.

Speaker 5 (28:49):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (28:50):
If you just went okay, average pool is this size? Yes,
and did and use that math for every job, most
of your days might come out fine. Some of them
would be under chemicalized or whatever, and some of them
will be over right.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
But I think we have a standard amount of blood
in our body, is what I'm getting.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Well, wait, I don't think we do.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
I don't think where.

Speaker 5 (29:16):
We're different how blood is in the human body.

Speaker 4 (29:18):
It's going to give you an average because there's not a.

Speaker 5 (29:21):
Number one point two to one point five.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
Right, So she gave you a range.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
Yes, yeah, well then maybe it's based on the range.

Speaker 4 (29:30):
And it was based on a range, then how can
you like get it down to That's not a science
that you'd have to to properly get this number.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
It would have Oh no, my.

Speaker 5 (29:41):
Friend, because now we're straying in. I deal with ranges
all the time.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
For like water to be properly balanced, it has to
be within certain ranges. It could it can fluctuate in
the range.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
Just why your results to be in a certain range
that's acceptable.

Speaker 5 (29:56):
That's different.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Well then wouldn't that be like the principle of this,
like the results to be in a certain range for
you to be sober.

Speaker 4 (30:04):
No, it's a it's a hard limit, right, you're under
your fine, you're over by any amount, you're considered impaired.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
Well, that's how it goes with alcohol.

Speaker 4 (30:15):
Yeah, that's what I'm no, this is what I'm talking
about is alcohol.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
I'm talking about what we use for.

Speaker 5 (30:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:21):
So it's uh, it's barely like science has been used
to apply this method, But the method itself is not scientific.
It's kind of it's kind of more arbitrary. Uh, I
think as far as them implementing a similar dysfunctional system.

(30:42):
And I'm not saying that we shouldn't obviously have like
safeguards for people who are, you know, driving recklessly on
the road because of any kind of drug, alcohol or
whatever the fuck, But if you're if you're going to
have the same imperfect system applied to weed, it should

(31:03):
first start.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
With like do you notice the person being impaired?

Speaker 5 (31:08):
Right?

Speaker 4 (31:09):
Like there has to be probable cause to take that step.
Was the person like swerving, not the person slurring.

Speaker 2 (31:17):
That's the other thing, is what's probable, cause everyone's all
over the road. I get almost sideswiped like two to
three times a week.

Speaker 5 (31:23):
Sure, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
I mean I drive a lot, I drive more than
the average person. But yeah, two or three times a
week someone almost just merges into me, just not even
being attention, or they're on their phone or something, just
swerve into the.

Speaker 4 (31:35):
Lane like well, I think you know, when they started
implementing the blood alcohol limits for impaired driving, it started
lower than it was, much lower than it was today.

Speaker 5 (31:48):
Oh it's higher, it's getting lower.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
Oh no, it used to be like I think it
used to be like point twenty five, and then they
got down to like point one five and then it
was point one. No, because I remember a lot of people,
because I do remember. I was old enough to remember
a lot of people belly aching when it got down
to point eight, and a lot of people are like, well,
it's like two beers.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (32:08):
But obviously, I mean there's an added complexity in this.
Things like cocaine and fentanyl passed through your system pretty quickly.

Speaker 5 (32:18):
You know.

Speaker 4 (32:18):
The THFC sticks around a long time in the body
and could still be found even in the saliva days
after somebody is ingested. It has nothing to do with
like it's probab about to joint and there's like still
shit in my mouth.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
But it's probably, but it's probably in a different concentration.
It's had a few days to be broken down, like.

Speaker 4 (32:41):
Right, But like, let's say you're an everyday smoker who
smokes a lot, and then you don't smoke a day,
Like you get up, don't smoke, you're completely sober. You
get behind the wheel, you know, you get pulled over
because you you know, are looking at your phone and

(33:02):
you sweve out of your lane and now you've got
an impaired ticket because you probably still have enough in
your system to be considered over the limit.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
And I guess the million dollar question is have they
determined to range? There's just like an undeniable range, Like
if they have this range.

Speaker 4 (33:21):
You they haven't. It's like that's why I was looking
for it. It's in the story. There's a definite number
that's in the in the proposal.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
That's what I'm saying, is this My question is about
this number, and like is this number like undeniably Like, dude,
if you have this concentration you have smoked recently, you.

Speaker 5 (33:38):
Have used recently. Nobody knows. That's that's firing question.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
That It's so like everybody's body processes cannabis differently. People
are ingesting cannabis in different ways.

Speaker 3 (33:55):
I mean like.

Speaker 4 (33:55):
It's all over the map as far as usage and
how it reacts with people's bodies that I don't think
it's anywhere near I mean alcohol, The same can be
said about alcohol, but there's way less of a variance, right,

(34:16):
especially once you get to a certain point.

Speaker 5 (34:18):
Everybody's just going to be drunk as fuck.

Speaker 4 (34:20):
No matter what your tolerance is or if you have
you know, like Asians or Native Americans have different tolerances
in general, different tolerances too.

Speaker 2 (34:32):
What is they're missing an end time or something that
helps the processes Asian thing.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
Yeah, yeah, they don't break it down as well as other.

Speaker 5 (34:44):
Basically they hammered way more quick.

Speaker 4 (34:46):
It's going to say cultures, but it's not like instead
of culture a person, Yeah, it's a race.

Speaker 5 (34:50):
Yeah other race is a dirty word. Yeah, I know,
I know, like my brain wants to edit the word
race out.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Yeah, it's insane.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
But we still talk about like people hate Jews, which
is abhorent. But like we talk about racism, all right,
just not a race, but gone.

Speaker 5 (35:08):
Oh god, I feel that it is.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
It's two things. It is a race of people and
answer religion. Like I have to explain to people Semitic
people are Jewish people.

Speaker 5 (35:17):
I guess.

Speaker 4 (35:18):
But because they decided to call themselves Jews instead of.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
Because instead of israelis. Yeah, that's why. I don't know
why they've gone. I don't know the answer to that.
I just know there are Jewish people and there's Jewish religion.
There are two separate things, but you can also be both. Sure, Like, yeah,
I don't know why they didn't go with ISRAELI. They've
chosen to go with Jewish. That is a question. I
do not know the answer to.

Speaker 4 (35:44):
The spot that I go to the jars. It's right
down the street.

Speaker 5 (35:48):
Oh yeah, I mean spot.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
They're all over the fucker, I said, they're taken over.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
I said, I think, I said at a new record the
other day. The most I had to be in that
building was one hundred and twenty seconds. That is the most,
because I did online order and it was dead, so
I just walked you know, game nine D. They checked
me in, went right back, gave my name, hand me
the bag, and do like I want to start timing

(36:14):
my visits like this had to be Mike.

Speaker 5 (36:17):
I walked out. I was like, dude, I could not
have been in this building for two minutes.

Speaker 4 (36:21):
It was Yeah, it was better than picking up a prescription.

Speaker 3 (36:25):
I mean it.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
I do that all the time now. I get my
ship one days when I work from home, and when
I'm ready to break for lunch. You know, I'll like
a half hour before I'll place my order. It's all
connected to plaid now, so it pulls some money right
out of my bank account. So I don't even have

(36:48):
to get cash. I don't have to stop at the
atm yep. I place my order on the on their app,
and I walk in, show my ID and.

Speaker 5 (36:56):
Walk out with a bang. Yep. Fucking beauty.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
Love it and the guy because if you do voice
in Colorado, they got him out there, and I know
they're working on.

Speaker 5 (37:05):
Other states too.

Speaker 4 (37:06):
The one in h the one I go to is
on a mile right, that's fun. That's fine there, it's.

Speaker 2 (37:15):
It's not busy. One of my cleumbs is busy, dude,
one of my clumbs is fucking ridiculous. When it's busy.
It's busy.

Speaker 4 (37:22):
Yeah, I have never seen it get out of control,
but it can get pretty busy in there.

Speaker 5 (37:26):
They had to buy the they had to buy They
had to buy the.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
UH place next to it and tear it down and
make a parking lot so they could have two parking lots. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (37:38):
Yeah, the they've got a metal detector at this one
that you got to go through, right, so you know,
you got to empty all the ship out of your
pockets and all that ship. And I've got my trips,
as I said, now down to a science.

Speaker 3 (37:55):
So like I drive over there.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
All the metals, just leave it in your car, right, like.

Speaker 4 (38:00):
I take out my vapes, my phone, everything. I actually,
like I always wear a plastic belt that has a
plastic buckle on it, just because it's really difficult to
find metals that don't give me a rash for some reason.
Maybe I just have to invest in like a really
nice belt.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
But like, I always wondering about these metal detectors because
for the record, I have walked through the metal detector
at Metro Airport so times with my belt on and not.

Speaker 4 (38:32):
I've heard there's one guard there that I've heard say
multiple times because like.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
He's great.

Speaker 4 (38:38):
I've watched him grill people and they've been like, I
got it. I got a big belt buckle and he's like,
it ain't the belt buckle. These things don't go off
for belt buckles. So yeah, apparently it's.

Speaker 3 (38:48):
A known thing.

Speaker 5 (38:50):
But what was I saying anyway?

Speaker 4 (38:53):
Oh so yeah, I just I walk in, throw my
car keys in the dish and you know, breeze through,
no problem. And last time I was there, the guy
in front of me, I walk in.

Speaker 5 (39:07):
As he's like empty into the dishes.

Speaker 4 (39:10):
He's got his phone, his keys, you know, nicotine, vape,
weed vape, some other like device, like maybe he had
two phones or something like that.

Speaker 3 (39:22):
And then he's handing him.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
This this iPad that's in a case.

Speaker 5 (39:28):
Why do you need to bring all that in with you?

Speaker 2 (39:31):
He said?

Speaker 4 (39:32):
The security guard asked him, did you walk up here?
And he's like, no, man, I drove. And he's like, okay,
you can just leave this stuff in your car. And
he's like, bro, I'm in Detroit, man, I didn't leave it.
A twelve hundred dollars tablet in Detroit. And he goes
he just looks like he goes, your tablet will be
fine son.

Speaker 5 (39:52):
You're obviously from not around here.

Speaker 4 (39:55):
Yeah, I mean this is again, it's on eight miles
in the middle of the fucking day, Like, yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
I roll the dice for ten minutes. I would I
put it under the seat and roll the dice. Also,
what is this tablet?

Speaker 3 (40:10):
A twelve hundred dollars tablet?

Speaker 5 (40:12):
Right? What are you doing with a tablet?

Speaker 4 (40:16):
I mean I know they make like you can get
the full lot, but this this table look the same
size as mine right here, and this was three hundred
and fifty dollars, right, And I don't think his was
even a an apple, so I don't know.

Speaker 5 (40:30):
It's an chop charge.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
So ye, I strolled in behind him and drop my
keys and he just goes.

Speaker 3 (40:37):
This guy gets it.

Speaker 2 (40:44):
I'm secured, tog, Like, what are you playing being here
for three hours?

Speaker 4 (40:49):
Speaking of jars, you know they had a TV ad
the actually ran a wheat commercial. Yeah, so they're not
allowed to do advertisements weed on TV. I mean they're
definitely allow to do it on billboards. You come to Michigan, now,
just about anywhere there's like weed billboards. But that's all

(41:11):
it is. In Detroit, you up and down eight mile
there's only three billboards that you'll see. We'd hire a
lawyer to sue somebody for your own ship.

Speaker 3 (41:23):
And a church.

Speaker 5 (41:26):
Oh my guess is going to be Am the Lord?

Speaker 2 (41:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (41:30):
Church, like it's like church or just promoting the Lord.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
Or like when I was in Missouri, it was porn
the Lord and fireworks.

Speaker 5 (41:41):
Those are all the billboards you saw in Missouri. How
man like? Who's buying all the fireworks? Well they're in
the porn and Jesus too. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:52):
Yeah, so.

Speaker 4 (41:54):
Jarvis was pretty clever about it. I'll just roll this
for you, see if we can. Just to set it up,
A woman goes into a dispensary, but it looks more
like a deli, gotcha, And that's part of I feel
like we're doing a spot for him.

Speaker 5 (42:12):
What is the deli? The are seeing those things for?
What is it they delivering?

Speaker 2 (42:16):
Now?

Speaker 5 (42:16):
No, all it.

Speaker 4 (42:17):
Means is that they've got a glass case with a
bunch of wheat and jars and you get to go,
I like that one, and they bag it up for you. Okay,
you pick it like you to go to the deli.
Every other dispensary ever, Yeah, all they're doing is branding it.
But I think it's kind of it's kind of smart

(42:39):
because I think people like, there's still a lot of
people who don't go to dispensaries.

Speaker 2 (42:47):
They probably have other people.

Speaker 4 (42:48):
Pick it up for them, and they just don't like
it just feels like wrong or something, you know.

Speaker 3 (42:54):
But now it's like, oh, it's just like a deli.

Speaker 4 (42:56):
You know. I said, you think it's like, I mean,
a lot of the stuff that's being purchased now, as
far as actual plant matter is just pre bagged.

Speaker 5 (43:10):
Yeah, you see a lot of that now.

Speaker 3 (43:12):
So and I don't think it's like they're not marketing.

Speaker 4 (43:17):
It is like we have a revolutionary idea. It's just
advertising the fact that they do do this, that like
you can come here and not just get prepackaged product.

Speaker 5 (43:29):
Yeah. So see if the sound's coming through, what's the
steady style?

Speaker 2 (43:34):
Let me show you.

Speaker 5 (43:38):
You see it.

Speaker 4 (43:40):
So they're looking at vegetables. BROCCOLI's weighing out some broccoli.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
Then you enjoy it.

Speaker 5 (43:50):
And hands are a little bagg here broccoli.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
Yeah, I mean all I saw on the commercial was
lettuce and broccoli and brussel sprout.

Speaker 5 (44:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (44:00):
So it's for jars and it says jars and there's
there're logos all over it, and everybody knows what Jars does,
but they never talk about purchasing or consuming cannabis. They
don't say the word cannabis. They don't show any cannabis.
There's not any even paraphernalia in the background or anything
like that.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
Definitely throws in a bag of weed though, that's definitely
a weed bag.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
It was a weed bag, but I have vegetables in it.

Speaker 5 (44:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (44:26):
I guess that's the only thing that would be close
to being like paraphernalia.

Speaker 5 (44:30):
Broccoli. Yeah, isn't it. The emoji you're supposed to use
for weed is broccoli?

Speaker 4 (44:36):
Was that the one they don't use? Like the tree
you're to use the Broccolian trees? I think, Okay, that's
we're old whenever.

Speaker 5 (44:45):
Kids they don't know what to do with the emojis
these days. They don't know what it's like to fear
jail over having a joint.

Speaker 4 (44:53):
Yeah, last thing and them. We'll wrap it up for
this episode. But uh, it kind of reminded because we
were having the conversation about the deli and how it's
just just selling weed like most stores do. Apple announced
that they're getting into the lo fi business by offering

(45:19):
lo fi versions of popular pop songs and is already
out there.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
Yeah, Like I've had a few come up in my
mixing like wait, this isn't then you read say it's
someone doing a cover yep.

Speaker 4 (45:32):
But obviously Apple has, you know, the clout to get
a lot more artists on board, because they still have
to be licensed if you're going to put them out
there for streaming. Feature extended instrumental and reimagined versions of
songs from artists like Imagine Dragons, Katy Perry, Casey Muskraves
and more.

Speaker 5 (45:54):
Gross, I want to hear nothing of what you just said.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
They're calling it sound therapy, the sound Therapy collection. Here's
how Apple and UMG say that the sound therapy these
songs might help you out. Songs have been enhanced with
auditory beats or colored noise to help encourage specific brain responses.
Gamma waves and white noise, A wushlight combination of every
sound frequency may help with focusing. Data waves could aid

(46:19):
in relaxation, and delta waves and pink noise.

Speaker 5 (46:24):
Okay, know what I'm hearing.

Speaker 2 (46:25):
This is where all the ears are now, and this
is we're going to try to get into this game.

Speaker 4 (46:29):
A dreamy version of Katie Perry's Double Rainbow, for example,
could help listeners drift off to sleep while and imagine
Dragon's track might help them tackle a to do list.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
This is where all the ears under thirty are now,
and we're going to get into this game.

Speaker 5 (46:45):
That's what I heard. It's all I'm hearing. So they
invented music, right, Elevator music.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
Another thing young people are going to think they invented now.

Speaker 4 (46:56):
But it's it's interesting how it's come full circle, but
also flipped three sixty in the process. Right because music
muzak was like the lowest form of music right, oh
for sure, And it was used in situations like elevators
and department stores because it was much cheaper than playing

(47:20):
paying license fees to like Fleetwood Mac.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
This is the same age group that loves them some
yacht rock, Like we all just knew it as terrible
soft rock when we grew up, but apparently they.

Speaker 5 (47:32):
All love it.

Speaker 3 (47:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (47:35):
So, But also muzak was like irritating, right, It was like,
especially too much of it would kind of, you know,
I think, agitate most people.

Speaker 2 (47:50):
I mean it was a punchline in like the late
nineties and early two thousands, how many rock videos was there, like,
you know, stupid musak versions of like the song that
the video was for or something like that.

Speaker 4 (48:02):
Like my favorite joke like that is in my favorite
movie of all time, Raising Arizona, because there's a theme
if you remember the movie, there's a yodeler yodeling track
that plays on a lot of the more hectic scenes,

(48:24):
like the chase scenes in the movie, and the older
is going ye, there's like banjos and shit in the background,
and this is playing when after high Rob's a convenience
store for some baby diapers.

Speaker 5 (48:43):
And like there's any other kind and.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
Have you been on the internet?

Speaker 4 (48:53):
And it gets caught by the police, Like the police
come after him and he's running from the police, and
the the odelin theme is playing throughout all of this,
and he ducks into a grocery store and he goes
into the grocery store, there's a musak version like it's right,
it's the same song, right at the same spot. It

(49:14):
just fades right into a musak version of the yodeling theme,
and then he goes out the back door and it
just pops right back into the regular version. But it's
a little quiet, like it's not super obvious, Like it
sounds like the music goes away. I mean, because the
music goes from diagetic to non diegetic right where it's

(49:36):
or maybe I got that flip. Which one is the
one where it's like in the scene, one of them's
in the scene. Diagetic means it's music that is like
actually in the scene, like people are dancing to this music.
If you get like in a club, that's diagetic music,
where not non diegetic means it's, you know, music that's

(49:57):
helping the story. It's not background. The people in the
story can't hear it, yes, correct, Yeah, that's the difference
whether it's actually in the environment that you're watching and
it's part of the production that you're watching. And so yeah,
it seems like the music just goes away, but there's like,
oh yeah, you can hear the theme over the PA.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
So god shit, I got off the same age group again.
I read an article the other day about what did
they say, because costs are so high, create your own
home cafe, which is brewing your own coffee.

Speaker 3 (50:38):
No thank you?

Speaker 5 (50:40):
But what this isn't an age group thing?

Speaker 2 (50:42):
No, it's it seems like younger people like the last two,
and maybe we did it too when we were younger,
but it seems like the last two age groups come
up with things that already exist, and then they think
they invented them, like roommates and making coffee at home and.

Speaker 4 (50:59):
Saving your money, you know, shit like that. Oh wait,
this caffe. I thought it was like, actually run a
cafe out.

Speaker 3 (51:05):
Of your kitchen. It was just like bullshit that you
can make it.

Speaker 2 (51:08):
It was a bullshit they've come up with to make
making your own coffee at home sound more fancy.

Speaker 3 (51:15):
It still seems like, hell, I'm just I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (51:19):
I'm thinking about this playlist and you're like hearing Musak version.
I know it's like not going to be like the
tinny Musak versions that we're used to, but it's like
a lesser quality instrumental.

Speaker 5 (51:31):
Version of a shitty song.

Speaker 4 (51:34):
Right Well, even if I liked the song, like I
want to listen to this, how is that going to
help me relax?

Speaker 2 (51:40):
I don't know. But we're music people. Music affects us differently.
I've learned that.

Speaker 5 (51:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (51:47):
Today, I've also learned, in an effort to get to
stop being such a music snob, I've also learned to
stop laying the public's poor taste at the artist's feet.

Speaker 3 (51:58):
Wait, I'm sorry say that again.

Speaker 5 (52:00):
I've stopped.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
I've stopped trying to fault the artist for the public
having poor taste, like public like the terrible song.

Speaker 5 (52:09):
Oh right, not the artist's fault.

Speaker 4 (52:11):
Yes, yeah, Today I had on a loop an Elton
John song in my like it was an earworm that
I could not get out of my brain. But it
wasn't even the whole song. It was just that part.
What's the what is the name of the song? Even
the one about don't let the Sun go down on Me?

Speaker 5 (52:34):
The song?

Speaker 4 (52:34):
Okay, that's the name of the song. But it's just
that part. It's just the end part of the chorus
where it does that kind of stop dun dunh b
and then and then it goes into those glorious strings, right,
and the strings of the best part of the whole

(52:55):
fucking song. Yes, yes, yes, But my brain just for
some reason just loves.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
That unpopular tape, or maybe.

Speaker 4 (53:04):
Just loops right back before it gets to the strings.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
It just goes back to it. It doesn't even play the
full fucking chorus. I's for the version the live version
with George Michael to the original.

Speaker 3 (53:15):
Oh yeah, that's right.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
Like George Michael comes in in Wales and I think
seems it better than Elton John ever could Yeah, no, wait,
no Michael, No, that's right. George Michael is doing it,
and then he brings in it's from one of his
live album ors something, and he brings in Elton John
is anyone? It was George Michael. George Michael does the
first half and then he brings to Elton John for

(53:37):
the second verse, and then they both harmonized together for
the rest of the song.

Speaker 5 (53:41):
It's fucking fantastic. That's cool.

Speaker 4 (53:44):
John does good collabs well. Recently all of his ones
are to get paid. I thought that Dua Lipa the.

Speaker 5 (53:53):
Yeah, but the follow up, the Britney Spears one.

Speaker 2 (53:56):
I didn't hear that one the Britney.

Speaker 4 (53:59):
I thought it was just a Lipa doing a shitty cover,
and then I heard the whole thing. I'm like, oh,
they're trading each other's songs off. That's kind of cool.
And he did it with Brittany and what it was?
What did the one dou Alipa did?

Speaker 2 (54:11):
Uh No, It's gonna be a long long time, Okay,
so she did man.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
Yeah, I don't know the names of any of his song?

Speaker 2 (54:19):
What was Britney's? I don't know, Brittany hold on her?
And he did the same thing with Brittany like right afterwards, yeah,
hold me closer.

Speaker 5 (54:31):
So he did Tiny Dancer and then one of her songs.

Speaker 4 (54:36):
It's like, not one of my favorites anyway. So does
that mean that Brittany sang on it too?

Speaker 6 (54:43):
Yeah, it's doing one, he's doing two of his songs.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
It's just like, yeah, it's just so processed.

Speaker 3 (55:12):
Hey, yeah that was horrible.

Speaker 2 (55:16):
That was that piece of ship.

Speaker 3 (55:17):
That's great.

Speaker 4 (55:18):
Yeah, yeah, Brittany, we can do a collab like I
did with Dua, but I am neither song.

Speaker 2 (55:26):
Yeah of mine name, none of yours?

Speaker 3 (55:28):
Which one of which song would Elton sing?

Speaker 5 (55:31):
Right?

Speaker 2 (55:32):
Which one? Right? Like you drive Me crazy?

Speaker 5 (55:37):
Yeah right? I don't know.

Speaker 4 (55:40):
I can't picture, like maybe her cover of My Prerogatives
The Girl.

Speaker 5 (55:44):
Yeah yet a woman? Dude, you're seventy eight.

Speaker 4 (55:49):
I saw a video at this point you look like
I was fairly in Portland and the cops were blocking
off traffic on the freeway because there was a a
guy they were trying to catch, right and they had
the spike strips ready to like throw out, and he's
in the middle. This is being filmed from an overpass,

(56:11):
so it's like perfect bird's eye view of the events.
And this cop is he's watching this guy come down
the road and he doesn't know which way he's gonna go. Right,
he's in the middle, so he's gonna throw his spikes
one way or the other, depending on which way this goes.
So the guy goes right, but goes way right and
off the shoulders, so he misses the spikes completely and

(56:35):
just jumps back on the road and keeps going right.
He's blasting Toxic by Britney Spears, like blasting this fucking song.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
Just like what he's going for his mental insanity. Like
he's he's got to lay the groundwork right away. What
is how do I get much? I gotta they gotta
think I'm nuts. What's the craziest song I can put
on right now? All right, let's put this on loop.
Do I have any clown makeup in the car? No,

(57:10):
damn it, exactly No. I think this dude was trying
to lay his insanity defense just right, just right away.
Let's see, can I somehow get all my clothes off
so I can just jump out of the car naked.

Speaker 4 (57:33):
Yeah, that was one of the best pieces of video
I've seen all week.

Speaker 5 (57:40):
That wouldn't make me chuckle.

Speaker 2 (57:42):
That's quite the soundtrack to this chase. I bet you
did you see this today?

Speaker 3 (57:51):
What's that?

Speaker 5 (57:51):
This video?

Speaker 3 (57:53):
A couple of days ago?

Speaker 2 (57:54):
All right, so a podcast or two I listened to
me get to this, okay, because this sounds like definitely
right up a couple of right up one of their's alley,
like they would definitely be all over this.

Speaker 4 (58:07):
Yeah, we got to first hard to know what's gonna
go viral these days?

Speaker 3 (58:16):
Right and less and less does it?

Speaker 5 (58:20):
Last summer it was all about a chick you talk
about spitting on a dick?

Speaker 4 (58:23):
Yeah, so who knows? Who knows? We'll see tune in
next week.

Speaker 2 (58:30):
Next week, hopefully figures crossed.

Speaker 4 (58:33):
We'll see if the toxic speeder goes violent violent because viral.

Speaker 2 (58:40):
Right at the Weedsman for twenty on the social media,
that's where we're at, and Christophermedia dot net is where
all the shows live, every single one of them, all
