Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Start uf dot up, start up, Brooklyn Boys, start up,
Brooklyn Boys, start data. They make it noise data up.
I hope it's episode two fifty two of the Brooklyn
Boys podcast. If you count it, is it? Yes? All right?

(00:24):
I want to make sure, yeah, because sometimes I'm a
little unsure of the other the number, you know, I
mean after you know, after we hit two hundred, you know,
we're just coasting at that point, right, it's a good point. Yeah,
what's going on, David Brodie? Well, let's see if you're
putting day for our mats when we're recording this. Yeah,

(00:46):
you and I normally go to what No, we normally
go to the game. We're normally there right now, but
right and and we are podcasting today, which I'm not
instead of being at the game offended by it's kind
of a cold, dreary day in New York. It's man,
you know, yesterday was supposed to be opening day for
the Mets, and it was sunny in eighty degrees and

(01:08):
there was a threat of heavy downpours. So two days
ahead of that, the Mets canceled opening day and made
it today instead. Well, needles to say, we got no
rain and now here we are on the cold, dreary
afternoon where the Mets are opening. I'd rather be sitting
here in my underwear doing the podcast with you. Yeah
you know what I I wasn't. We weren't going to

(01:29):
go yesterday. First of all, it was passover. You were tired,
so we didn't make plans to go. No, right, we
have to apply for media passes, so we didn't do that.
They moved the game to Friday, and like it's too
late to apply for the media passes and truthfully it's Friday. Yeah. Well,
I have a bone to pick with the Mets. And
it's not like a Mets thing where everyone listening is like,
I'm not a baseball fan. I have a bone to

(01:50):
pick with the Mets. Today people say like commercialism is
getting out of hand. You know Nascar drivers they have
matches all over their sleeve. Oh, I know where you're
going with this. And I'm just as upset in fact
that my Yankee fan friends are texting me this go ahead.
So as of today, the Mets home jerseys. O God,

(02:12):
have a patch on the sleeve for New York New
York Presbyterian, but don't give them. Why not sponsoring us
they're not paying us to say that. So not only scary,
are they wearing a patch on their arm of a
sponsor horrible, which is something that Asian League Baseball leagues do.
The Major League Baseball doesn't do that. But I realize

(02:34):
what they did, and I've seen other people on Twitter
have noticed it. Also, they're not so on the Mets
jersey and a lot of teams have a logo on
their on their sleeve right on their shoulder. The Mets
left patch is usually a Mets logo and the right
sleeve is used for like when someone dies they put
their number on their like to memorialize the person. They

(02:57):
moved the Mets patch to the right arm, which is
sacrilegious in my opinion, to move it on on the
jersey and put the sponsorship arm on the left arm.
But wait only on right handed players, only on players
that bat right handed, so when they're at the bat,
at at the plate batting, the patch faces the camera. Yep.

(03:20):
So half of the jerseys on the team, probably sixty
are patch on the sacred left sleeve where the team
patch used to be, and are on the right arm
because that right when you're left handed, you're right on
faces the camera because New York Presbyterian wanted camera time,
because they wanted to make sure that it's always exposed

(03:41):
in the foreground, because when when you're showing from the
pitcher's angle the batter, you can't see the back arm
of depending on the which way there. Yeah. Now, I
understand the Mets have the highest pail in baseball and
the richest owner in baseball, and I get you have
to pay for the players. I get that it just
looks tacky to have, for of all, an ugly white patch.

(04:01):
It looks like it's it can't even read it, to
be honest with you, they should have made it. You can't.
You can barely read it. You're not gonna be able
to read it on camera when they're at the plate.
Second of all, the fact that half the team has
the jersey one way and half team is the judge
other way. Some idiot decided that was a good idea,
or like you said, they're paying an extra to have
it faced the camera. Yeah, pictures don't even bat in

(04:22):
baseball anymore, ninety nine percent a time. Not The biggest
defense even that, the biggest defense to this about this
patch is it's fucking huge, it's like halfway up to sleeve.
And yeah, and it's in the hospital. It's also it's
also its own logo within it, its own patch. Whereas

(04:45):
in the past they would incorporate it into the pinstripe
and would be kindly blended in, it would done a
lot more. It was done a lot more tastefully. This
case is so the fucking thing on top of and
its own little box. And whoever negotiated this, I mean,
whoever approved this. Yeah they whoever decided to half the

(05:07):
jerseys one way. It's three times the size it should be. Yeah,
it is horrendous. It overtakes the whole uniform. So we're
not talking sports, we're just talking about overadvertising. And again
with NASCAR, they paint the cars. I get it. They
were in flammable jumpsuits, they have the logos. That's fine,
that's a thing in NASCAR. Plus there was a time

(05:28):
when they didn't generate enough money. They needed the extra money.
I get it. But that Eminem's car is the entire hood.
It's the entire car. It's an Eminem And that's sort
of the stick of Nascar. That the third place, we
don't do that well. Actually, I mean, who are we
to talk? If you think about it, I mean, you know,
we played commercially in a couple of commercials on our podcast.
Imagine if we put a sponsor on our logo, so

(05:50):
every time you opened up. Wait a minute, that's an idea.
Imagine if during this conversation someone was subliminally saying Budweiser
culture and you could barely hear us. If I got
paid to say Die Cooke, no ice and I don't
even drink it, forget it? What? Forget about it? What? What? Anyway?
I just had to get it off my chest. I

(06:10):
didn't listen. That's what grinds my gears today grinds my gears.
So the New York Mets, the minor league team is
the Brooklyn Cyclones. They play him Brooklyn and they're named
after the roller coaster, the Cyclone. Scary Jones, Yes I
did no, you did not. Yes, I did no, you didn't.
I showed up. You did show up. I want to

(06:30):
read something that Scary posted on social media. He put
a picture of himself up with the Mayor of New
York and he said, well, well New York City Mayor
Eric Adams, and he tagged him ride the first Cyclone
ride of the season with me implying that scary was
going to go on. Arguably the scariest roller coaster in
New York, even though it's not as large, not as

(06:50):
fast upside down, it's a school frightning ninety six year
old roller coaster and it was the grand opening. Every
year every year they do they do the big egg
cream smash. They smash an egg cream christ to christen
it like they would christen a ship. You know, they break,
you know in the ships they christen they but they

(07:10):
break a bottle of champagne. And the thing about the Cyclone,
and by the egg cream is a very Brooklyn drink.
Yeah it's but there's no egg in it. Nope, or
cream or cream. It's milk, seltzer and syrup. But go ahead.
The thing with the Cyclone, they built it on a
city street and in a very small space, so the
turns are very tight because they couldn't go wide they
had at it's very narrow roller coaster, so you get

(07:32):
slammed against the side of the car over the bar.
It's ancient technology, but a classic roller coaster that people
come from all over the country. If they're enthusiasts. They
started with a fucking stick that comes out of the ground,
a wooden stick. It's like a huge lever that's the
size of a person. And they pull it right, they
pull the stick, it comes out of the ground, the wood,

(07:54):
the wooden planks. It's an old as old can get
in an So if they don't like you, they hit
you with the stick. They beat you with it. So again,
it says, will New York City Mayor Eric Adams ride
the first cyclone ride of the season with me? That
says to me and everybody follows. Scary on social media
had Scary Jones. He's going to ride the cyclone. Yeah,
And the question is will the mayor man up and

(08:15):
ride the cyclone? Boy? Here we go. Apparently Mayor Adams
took got in the cyclone and what do he do? Scary?
He got in the car, He got in the front car. Yep.
Then he did it for the photo op. All the
all the flash bulbs went off, take all the pictures,
look at me here I am. I'm about to ride
the cyclone. And then as soon as the pictures were done,

(08:36):
he jumped out. Now where were you when this was happening?
Were you in the cyclone behind him, so a bunch
of us were granted access with him to ride. Took
the pause there there was like a two seconds to
ride the first ride of the of the year. Exciting. Yep,
first time they were taking this thing up, taking it out. Fantastic.
And I went into position uh huh neck to a

(09:00):
car that was empty, that was earmarked for me. Oh yeah,
And I watched to see what the mayor did the
BMW car, the car for skiy. What jumped out? Yeah?
I decided, well, I ain't going in now, oh, because
you don't want to show off to show up the mayor.
Is that right now? You know what it is? Coward?

(09:21):
I said, Wait a second, I said, if the mayor
of New York is not going to jump in the
cyclone and ride the first ride, I'm not going to.
If he's going in, I'm gonna go in with him.
But he decided not to, so I go. You couldn't
be at a man of the people. Well I started
thinking about it in that moment, now, right. You know,
when you think about the times if you've been on
the cyclone in your life, count it up over a dozen,

(09:44):
maybe more, maybe two dozen. Oh Okay, yeah, long several times.
I love the cyclone. However, I like it better in
July after it's been warmed up and it goes around
a few times. Oh, okay, this is the first ride
of the season. Hasn't run all hasn't run all winter.
They were running it, they've been running it for days. Yeah,
but now with people in it, I'm like, you know what,
what if this is the one that makes the headlines

(10:07):
after a hundred years. Yeah, I'm like, and the mayor's
not in it. If the mayor is in it, you
can't get in it, because you know the old rule,
never get into it, Never get into a situation with
someone more famous than you, because if if you, if
you and the mayor go flying off the tracks and die,
it's gonna be Mayor Adams killed in the cyclone, no
mention of you, You're out. But if the Mayor's not

(10:30):
in it and it goes over the side, local radio
personality killed. Thoughtful. I don't even want to think these thoughts.
But if if you have to know, my true would
be worse, be honest, dying in the accident and not
getting mentioned to dying in the accident and getting the headline,
probably getting the headline. Are you think it's worse now?
I think that's better, right, That's what I'm saying, So
don't be like you would. But at the same time,

(10:52):
I my fears overtook me. All I could think about
at that point was this. This is the first ride
of the season, and I am I am not ready
for this. I'm not ready because I don't know what's
going to happen here. It's creaky, it's old. Anything goes.
So I would rather come back in June and July.

(11:14):
After it's you know, gone on the track a few times.
It is okay, So we will see video this summer
on your Instagram A fucking you know, I put the video.
We'll put it up on our TikTok at the Brooklyn Boys.
You know you now have one video. Don't tempt me.
I will do it. I'm tempting you. Okay, do it? Okay,
the Brooklyn Boys. We will be read. I love Brooklyn.

(11:38):
Look well, you're Italian. You love Brooklyn. You have to
love Brooklyn. Well, I have an Italian question for you. Yes, sir,
how would you react to this? I went to a
great pizza place last night in New Jersey really good.
One of my one of my favorites in the area.
I'll give him a shout out. Known as Pizza I Love.
I've been there, terrific Route ten no wrong, Lauren Park,

(11:59):
Floren Park. They have a margarita pizza which is really
like a sweet sauce and freshmanter allo cheese and of
course I picked a basil off. Anyway, all the food
there is great. They do an Almbe rip off slice,
you know the oppside down Brooklyn Slice and Melonbell Sicilian
is solid. Everything there is excellent. I went there last

(12:20):
night for dinner, had a great, great waitress. Again, never
have a bad time there. I ordered a sausage palm Hero.
Normally I ordered a dinner chicken palm. I was in
the move a sausage palm. And, by the way, I
reminded later I get to talk about palm. Oh, oh,
I do too. Actually, I'm it's the video that you
said l Yeah, yeah, we'll talk about the later outrage. Yeah.

(12:40):
So I order a sausage palm and the person I'm
with orders a salad, and the waitress says to me, oh,
you're ordering a sausage palm Hero, would you like French
fries with that. What thank you? Thank you. French fries
are not the accompaniment for sausage. Pause, this isn't burger king,

(13:05):
I said, are you trying to d Italian my meal?
What do you mean? French fries don't go with sausage.
I know you're trying to. I know you're trying to
up sell. You take something to eat on the side.
If you like to offer me a side of spaghetti,
some zdi well, okay, even a meat paul. I'll take
a meat paul as a side. You don't do the
whole protein. They're not going to offer that. I do.

(13:25):
There could be a carb that goes with it, though,
I'm trying to think, not French fries. No, I think
like spaghetti. I think that's it spaghetti or zedi or
you know what. It's usually sold by itself. Nothing. You
don't get shit. The carb is the bread. No, I understand.
It's a complete it's a complete meal by itself. You
don't treat to serve me a little extra. I get it.

(13:46):
I'm not mad at the woman, but she's Italian. The
whole people, all the people are Italian from what I
could tell. I checked looked under the hood. I was like,
what French fries that you know what? It reminds me
of those people that go to the Chinese restaurant and
they order like chicken wings and French fries at the

(14:06):
Chinese place. Yeah, I'm like, what are you doing. You're
there for Chinese food, and you know what they say
to me, they make the best chicken wings and fries.
I'm sure you know why because it's in the same
oil they're cooking the egg rolls and all the other
and the fantail shrimp. Yeah, so it's getting the Chinese
food flavor. You can go for French fries, come on
at the Chinese restaurant. So, yeah, you can't serve French fries.

(14:28):
You know what, when we were in high school, they
used to serve pizza with French fries, which was weird.
Yeah they did, they did. They did serve pizza with
French fries. Yeah. But yeah, chicken pot, fausage palm with
French fries. I'm on, I'm not even a fries fan
anymore unless it's unless they're good fries. I don't know why.
I just I've fallen off with fries for whatever reason.

(14:53):
You know, when when you in the world. Well, when
when you crave the catchup more than the fries and
you just realize that the fry is a is a
way to get catch up to your mouth, right, then
I think it's time to abandon the fries unless they're
like outrageous, unless you've heard about like you know, it's
like a fresh cut potato. Now you're talking. No, I'll

(15:14):
tell you who has good fries. And it's not the fries,
like you said, it's the sauce. Sometimes it's always the
dipping sauce. It's the catch up. Yeah, so I had uh.
Have it been a Habit Burger? Is that the vegan place? No?
Why would I go to Habit Burger by myself for
your daughters? I don't know. I wouldn't. I wouldn't. I
wouldn't go there habits, but I don't. I don't make

(15:34):
it a habit of going to Habit Burger. No, okay,
all right, not on my radar. It's a chain and
they have massive burgers with like goop on it, like cheese.
It's like a monster burger. Food's good. The fries are excellent, Okay,
I'll tell you the fries are excellent. They have garlic fries,
sprinkle parmesan cheese or I think it's a Romano cheese. Anyway,

(15:59):
it's a great cheese. And then they give you a
garlic sauce they put when you go in there. They
poured over the fries, which is excellent. But they have
a weird way to order at Habit Burger. And it's
the same in the restaurant as it is on the app.
There's screens off to the side when you walk in,
and you order off of the screens, and you can
make customizations to whatever you want. So you don't order

(16:21):
at the register. You order and you pay on the screens.
So I happen to be ordering on the app to
pick some food up from from one of my kids, okay.
And what they do is you go to order something
and it says like okay, it says seasoning, and then
on the right there's arrows up and down at like
left and right arrows. You can either you can say
no change or extra or light pickles none extra or light.

(16:44):
So they wrote mustard with no Dame Mustard. This is
spelling us to their app. Then they wrote Portobell, Portobell mushrooms. Yeah,
mushrooms Okay, how do you spell the name of a
food row you're a restaurant in the app happens all
the time. I see a lot. Okay, Okay. So there's

(17:07):
also if you order like certain types of burgers, you
can like add lettuce and tomato. I ordered them the
patty Melt, but it doesn't let you add tomatoes. Why
it lets you ad lettuce, mayo, mustard, whatever you want,
not tomatoes. It says, after you place your woulder, click
here to leave feedback. So I left feedback, and I said, Hey,

(17:27):
I just want to let you know your food's great,
but you're missing the d and mustard. You have mustard,
you're missing the eye and terry hockey. It just says terry.
Ok but there's room. They're longer words in this app, okay.
And I said, and I can't add tomato to my
patty Melt, and I just feel like, you know, you
should know these things. They immediately sent me a credit

(17:49):
for three free cheese, of course, and I wasn't even complaining.
I was giving them feedback. Yeah, but I did want
to send a shout out to a Habit Burger while
at the same time him I'm taking a shot at Chipotle,
not Chipotle. Chipotle did. They were like, don't make it
a habit of complaining to us. Well, I want to say,

(18:10):
I want to give props to Habit Burger. But some
of you may have seen that I tweeted at Chipotle
yesterday for having the worst Oh boy, I'm having a wireful. Nope,
I love them. I love them as a company. Okay,
but I have a problem with him yesterday. Yah. Yeah, Okay,

(18:31):
I just tried the new chicken al pastor from Chipotle.
It's delicious, excellent. Yes, well, I'm gonna talk and you
don't have to comment, Okay, Okay, so my opinion only again.
I like Chipotle. I'm there all the time, my kids
there all the time. But I had an incident with
one person. Don't tell you what happened. Okay. And by

(18:52):
the way, while I was having this problem, I was
on the phone fighting with Direct TV. That's a whole
other story. By the way, we gotta get back to
the palms of two. Let's not lose focus. Okay a minute.
So my name is David Brody. My first initial ist D,
my last initialist B. Whereas your initials are as if
they are right or S, J depending on where same. Okay,

(19:15):
but those are initials that are far apart from each other, Yes,
D and B or right at the beginning of the
alphabet the alphabet. So when you when you order on
the app, you order everything right, and then you say
your name, and when you go to pick it up,
like most places now, there's a rack broken up by initials. Yeah.
So the top shelf was A through E, the next
shelf was F through K, so on so on. So

(19:37):
I go in at ten to one yesterday. My food
is SPA be ready at one ten, and I'm like,
oh little early. I'm not going to bother them. I'll
just wait. And I'm staring at the top shelf, A
through E. There's nothing on the top shelf. There's five
bags jammed on the second shelf, four bags jammed on
the fourth second okay, And the girl who the two
girls who are making the food, they're busting it out.
It's busy. They're putting all the stickers on the long

(19:57):
side of the bag, but they put them in sidewell.
There's short side of the bag. You can't see that,
but you're just sitting there, your eyes are focused on that.
A three waiting for d bes right food. So I'm
not going to be that guy that goes up and says,
is my food ready yet? No, because it's not on
the shelf you're waiting for. I'm not gonna be that guy.
I'm gonna be nice today. Of course, I was in

(20:17):
a good mood except for direct TV. Okay, So I'm waiting.
It's one ten. I go, you know what, they're busy.
I'll give an extra few minutes. And I'm watching them
make the food, and I see they're not making what
I ordered. So I'm like, that's not up to me yet.
They're busy. One fifteen, one twenty. The top shelf is
still empty. One and now people are walking up and
bothering you. D it's one twenty eight. Yeah, I've now

(20:42):
been there thirty eight minutes. I said, that's it. I
gotta go up and ask. I say, excuse me, so
iry to bother you. This is my order number. My
initials are dB. My name is David. Right, I can't
I show him the order? Right? It was my food? Lost?
Is it? Where? What's it? She goes, I'll hold on
and she looks on the second shelf, F through K

(21:03):
and there's my food f through k because you got
fuck fucked. So I said, how do you Why would
you put my M D or D They're both on
the top shelf. Why would you put them here? She
says she had a really good excuse. She looks at me.
She goes, oh, sorry, how long have it been there?

(21:27):
So I don't that's what I say. I go, Now
my food's called. But here's the thing. I had to
pick my daughter up somewhere, so I couldn't wait. I
couldn't speak to the manager. I was like, guy, whatever,
so I leave. When you call the store, they won't
put anyone on the phone. Our staff is currently making
bowls and burritos, so please um use our automated system,
or you can chat. We'll send you a link, or

(21:49):
you can talk to somebody at our corporate office. So
you can't call the store. So I get the corporate
office and there's a phone problem yesterday. They go hello,
can we go book? Can we help look? Can we
help you? And I said, yeah, I'm trying to have
a problem at the store at my order. I was
working about speak to you. Yes, how God? So I
called back the same thing. It was the whole system

(22:11):
was down, so you can't call them. So then they
send me the chat. They have an automated chat system
called Pepper. Okay, what are you going to complain about
this point? I wanted to let them know that I
waited forty minutes for the food and it was cold
when I got to my daughter, and I paid twenty
two dollars for it. I wanted to let them know,
did you get your money back? No, Pepper, the automated

(22:32):
chat system. Hello, I'm Pepper, Pepper says, so. I said
live assistant, Live assistant, and Pepper types back, Okay, I
understand you want a live assistant. Please give us your
phone number and we'll connect you with a live assistant.
Pepper gets salty with you. That's correct, So I know
it's Pepper like chili Pepper. So I put in my
phone number and it says, hold on, we'll get you
a live person. So I get the live person. I said,

(22:53):
the person is what happened? So I voiced text what
happened and they say I can't follow you. Okay, So
what happened was they put my food on the wrong level.
I'm sorry, it's not making sense to me. I said,
look if you don't speak English, Well just tell me.
Can you just call me? We can't dial out, you can't.
I love how. I love how you're sitting there all
this time wasting I know. But the thing is you're

(23:16):
you're not letting them get away with it. It's like,
all right, because if it was me, honest mistake, you
put it on the wrong fucking rack. I waited an
extra fifteen minutes. I don't care about that. Whatever cold
the food was called? Okay, anyway, why couldn't they solve
it right then and there and say, look, this is
this is cold food. Make my order over. I had
to leave and they were busy. I already waited forty

(23:36):
minutes anyway, So I said to the guy, can you
call me? He says, we can't dial out. I said,
if you can't dial out, why did the automated system
ask me if my phone number? Yeah, that's a glitch.
It's a none glitch. It's a non glitch. Yeah, Pepper
asks you a phone number, but they can't call you.
David Brodie makes a mountain out of a mole hill
every single time, but in Mexican food, to pronounce mole.

(23:59):
Oh okay, well, okay, you're gonna get your food, You're
gonna get your money back. My point was habit, So
what does more to it? So I have to log
in to get my reward points. There's no Y can't.
I can't log in. I put in my password, which
I know what it is, and it says wrong password.
It says click here if you forgot your password. So
I put in my click the link, and I says,
we'll send you an email. No email. I do it again,

(24:20):
no email. So I check my spam folder. No email.
So then I tweeted them, and they tweet me right back,
and they say, hey, we'd like to refund your money.
We'll give you rewards money. What can you log into
your reward account? I said, no, my passwords not working.
Oh well, I'm not getting a link, because oh, we'll
send you a link right now. Click the link and
and we'll give you your money back. Great. So he

(24:42):
sends me a link. No link. I said, I'm not
getting an email anyway, So he says, well, I don't
want to tell you then, So I'm shit out of
lock because the system won't send me an email to
reset my password. Once again. I'd like to say, habit
Burger even though you spelled Portobello wrong. You win, you
win the day. I'm just gonna bite my tongue on this,
I know, and I'm sorry I had to remain silent

(25:12):
there for for other reasons. But anyway, if they'd like
to sponsor this podcast, yeah right, I'll forgive them. I
was got run over by a fucking biker the other day.
So you know, we made Harley like a real motorcycle.
We made our move from Tribeca to Midtown Manhattan, two

(25:32):
totally different areas of Let you say, you mean the
Morning Show, right, Yes, yes, we the Morning Show. We
the people Elvis to Rand Morning Show. Now. Down in Tribeca,
it's like a country club. It's like Manhattan Light. It's
not really it's Manhattan, but there's places to go and
there's places to move around. Midtown is just tourists and

(25:57):
traffic and chaos, so and trucks. So they created these
green lane adjacents to a lot of Manhattan streets, and
in a lot of cities in America, where between the
curb and the parking, the parking if you park straight,

(26:17):
you know, up and down parallel park, right, there's a
there's a green space a green lane for bikes, east
scooters and things of that nature to fly by. Okay,
I'm not used to not only just looking both ways
from crossing the street. I mean that part I've had

(26:39):
down because I've done it my whole life. But as
you're walking across the street and you look both ways
and then you pass the parked cars, you now have
to look both ways again before stepping onto the curb
because there's that green lane there where you don't know
what the fuck is whizzing by. Yeah, and this is
not just once or twice. It's happened so to several

(27:01):
members of the Morning show. See, we didn't have that
in Tribeca, but in Midtown this is a thing. Okay,
I almost got fucking run over by a biker and
I literally became came within centimeters of being run the
fuck over. Now is this a biker like a motorcycle
or a guy on a bike? A guy on a bike?

(27:22):
Oh that's a bicyclist, a bicyle cyclist. And hold on,
try that again. An e bike going a million miles
an hour. It could have been a scooter, It could
have been a bike. It doesn't matter it was it
was electric powered and they were whizzing by. Now I
get it. I have to. Like it's like final destination
where people are like trying to avoid death. You didn't

(27:42):
go on the cyclone, and now the world is trying
to get back at you. I'm just pissed because and
and I'm sorry if you're if you ride, if you
ride a bike, and you're a you're a biker, a bicyclist.
I'm sorry about to say this. You are power hungry,
you're drunk with power because for all these years, it's

(28:06):
always been the cyclist has the right of way with
the car, because when in cars, if it's car versus bicycle,
cyclists have the right of way, even though they don't
make the smartest moves, and they'll go against traffic sometimes
or they won't use their green lane, which is fucking
designated to them. They took away a whole lane of
New York City traffic and made from two lanes to
one just so they could create these green lanes. And

(28:29):
then then the bicyclists are in the middle of the
street anyway, ding down the buses. Yeah, and spoiler of
your car. It's like, you know what, fuck you you
have your space driving it right in that But that aside,
you've been coddled, and you've been you've been the apple
of the eye, and you've gotten the right of way

(28:50):
with the law over the car all these years, that
all of a sudden, when it's cyclist versus pedestrian, you
think you have that same right of way, Well fuck you.
I can't stand bicyclists who just don't give a shit
and they're just zipping by and they don't look out

(29:12):
for people crossing the street. I'm sorry, I'm on foot,
you're on You're on a device. You're on an EA
scooter at this point, you're not even peddling. You're just
on on a motorized device short just short of a
moped or a vespa for that. For as far as
I'm concerned, you gotta look out for us. Yeah, you
gotta watch out for the pedestrian. You know, As of

(29:34):
the next week, I think, or the end of this week,
they're getting rid of e bikes in France. Is that
the trendom I'm just so sick of bicyclists power drunk,
drunk with power or whatever they you want to call it,
that they that they get the right of way in
favor of a pedestrian. That's correct. You've got to watch

(29:56):
rather be hit by a car asshole on a little bike.
It's just fucked up. They're assholes. They're assholes, not all
of them. I know some of you are probably listening
to this podcast while you're riding a bike, but I'm
sure you're a more friendly person and you're more mind
even if you're riding an new bike. But a lot

(30:16):
of them happen to be the delivery people, you know,
the Uber Eats and the seamless is and the Postmates
and these restaurants and yeah, and the door dashers, and
they're just zipping by and then making it. And I
get it. You have you have places to go. You
got to get that order in. But the laws in
your favor already. You're not sitting in traffic, you're zipping by.
The Least you can do is look both ways and

(30:38):
be mindful of it. You don't just sit there and
just a minute. Wait, wait, wait, wait. If a bike,
if a bike is coming down the street, they have
to look forward. You want them to look both ways,
you want them to look behind them, look in your periphery.
We all have perifholio. Look to the left and right. Yeah. No, yeah,
I'm not talling to look behind you. I'm not trying
to look looking forward. Yeah, look a little bit. What

(30:58):
I'm saying is, but I'm being mindful of pedestrians and
the hold on. When when you're driving down a side
street in New York in a car, okay, are you
looking between every car as you on both sides of
the road as you drive or in the street. No?
Usually for the car, No, usually my I can't listen.
I can't assume that a pedestrian is looking both ways.

(31:22):
So I'm drive down the street. When I'm driving the
street right left, left, right, left, right, left, my eyes
are going from left to right, scanning left to right,
left to right, left to right. That's what you're supposed
to do. That's part of defensive driving. But so your
foot's on the brake ready to stop? No? I mean yeah,
but no, not quite. Just I'm just saying, you're asking
the bike guy to be different than the car guy.

(31:45):
I just find it presumptuous for a biker to assume
that that green lane is just go go, go, go,
go go go. I'm there's been some people killed by
bicyclists this East scooters google it. Yeah, I don't know.

(32:05):
It's it's a growing problem. It's a problem, but I
think it's a problem that you have to complain to
the government who put those lanes there. I disagree with it.
I don't know if the bikers are like I don't
like them. I don't like the Potestians, don't like the
wall in that case there. I don't mean to be
a I don't need to be a curmudgeon, but I
don't like I don't like a tourist areas in Times
Square and you close down the roads, I don't like.

(32:27):
Oh that's the permanent closures. There's even more. They close
down even more of Broadway now permane. I know. I
don't like it. I don't like it, but if it's
gonna be there, I can't blame the people for sitting
on the bench. No. Yeah, but what I'm saying is
the bicyclist too much. That's what I've noticed. Oh yeah, me,
I'm the worst. Be laid back, Yeah, laid back, chilling

(32:48):
like mats call everything rolls off my shop. That's all
I have to say on that matter. That's it. Sorry, Well,
not that matters. I have to say, hey, happy pay
sock for you, thank you. It is past over, pass over,
and today's because it Easter is a round the corner. Oh, happy,
good Friday, today's good Friday. Now you don't only say that.
It's actually the saddest day on the Catholic calendar, but
they call it good. There's nothing good about Friday. Call

(33:11):
it's sad Friday. I know what. I don't know why
the allegedly Jesus died, right, so today was the day
that Jesus was nailed to the cross and died for
our sins. And then three days later he he shall
rise and later Friday to Sundays. Two days Friday, Friday,
Say that's two days. It's none it was it was
Friday morning, days later, Friday morning, Saturday morning, Sunday morning. Right,

(33:33):
but it's two days later. Why does it take three days? Well,
all of Friday, all of Saturday, and I guess most
of Sunday. Right, So he's just Sundays the day that's uh,
the day he they say he rose. But yeah, good
Friday is a very high day on the Catholic calendar.
And it's not happy. It's like it's like yom kipper
or yum kipper if you don't speak so it's said

(33:54):
it's a solemn day, was a day of atoman and sins,
and you you pent for all your your your transgressions.
It is the day that lent ends, the day that
you were supposed to have. You know, you've you supposed
to have given something up for the forty days prior.
Oh and what did you give up? French fries. I
gave up giving things up? I mean, yeah, that's the
same old adage. I just I just stopped. I just

(34:18):
stopped because I'm not even gonna hide it anymore. You
just stopped. Why people give up carbs? They say, oh,
but and then they sneak it anyway. So why would
I give up something just to say that, just to
pretend and lie to myself that I'm giving that up
when I know I'm gonna cheat. So yeah, well I
gave up. I gave up green onions. I can't wait.

(34:41):
I'm meeting my niece for the first time on Sunday,
Easter Sunday, my niece. No, my, you've dated cousins before.
It's fair for me to ask. You made out with
a cousin, didn't you shout out to Ruby Rose, my
first niece. That's Ruby Rosa by the way, Ruby Rosas. Yeah,

(35:03):
Ruby Rose. Yeah. No, I have three nephews and now
a niece. I have a bunch of gifts that I
have for her, very nice. What did you get? You
get a Franken sense and merst. I got her a
bunch of some clothes that you'll go into. Okay, okay,
oh you got you got her? Like? How did you
time them size wise to the seasons? Yes? I did,
but I didn't get current season and current because I

(35:25):
feel like they have enough clothes for now. People out
of Look, you know, people aren't thinking six twelve months
down the road, so I did have to. You have
to think six twelve months and then the season. Yeah
you go six months from now will be yeah you know,
yeah right, you gotta get a tuba close. I did
that math. But you didn't get your niece a spoon
or a plate from Tiffany. No. I've given up on that.

(35:46):
I've been made fun of way too much. Okay, So
that's if you don't know, if you're not listening in
order or you listen to the Big Show for years.
Scary used to get very expensive non gifts for the
child that weren't really gives for the child. He gave you,
like a Wedgewood plate, a silver a silver spoon from Tiffany,
a gold plated ashtray, more commemorative, more commemorative, Yeah, I

(36:10):
get me got yeah, civil wall plates you would order
from the Franklin Mint. It's funny. I um, when my
parents were cleaning out the shed and uh, they had
a box of stuff for me and they were like, here,
this is all the stuff is for you or cleaning
it out and either you wanted to throw it away.
So I'm like, what is this bowl with a like

(36:34):
ceramic cup? What is this? And they're like, oh, that's
a porridge bowl that you were given when you were
when you were kidding from when I'm sitting on my tought. Yeah,
do you remember when a long cand the spider whatever
I was, I'm supposed to put the curds and way
into this bowl when you're eating the porridge. Did you

(36:54):
get in the bed that was too hard or the
bed that was too soft? So I said, it's a
it's a horridge bowl and a saucer and I'm like, oh, well,
what is it. It's a baby. It's made for a baby.
And my mom used to think you were a cat,
so we bought you this. My mother's like your aunt
Pat got this for you when you were a baby,
when you were one. And all I could think about
was all the irrelevant gifts I've given to others, like oh,

(37:19):
this is a fancy porridge bowl and saucer. So I
wonder if people have gifts and things that they were
just never used because they were just more symbolic. I guess,
you know, when they were kids, did you get Daniel's
a second son, like a set of drill bits? I know,
I got him the silver I got him the silver spoon.

(37:42):
You know you're fucking you know. One Christmas, I got
Producer Sam a really fancy jar from Jonathan Adler, who's
a famous designer slash. He makes crafts and things. It
was like, you know, a little boogie, a little booge
usually on the jar, and it was a jar that

(38:05):
said Barbitious and it looked like it was shaped like
a circus tent. It was like a circus thing and
you open it it was like really cute. It like
black and white stripes. That's perfect for Christmas. Yeah, and
I hope you know, you open it up, you keep
things in there, you keep cookies, whatever, dog trees. That's
the thing they put the blue water and the combs
in at the barbershop. But it was ironic because it

(38:25):
said barbitious on it, which is a drug. So it
was like funny. I mean, that's the kind of stuff
that Jonathan Jonathan well, Jonathan Adler does funny shit like that,
where it's like with Quayludes. I think I said one
of those says Quailudes, one of his barbituous I think
it's in Quayludes on it. So it's like, what what
you know? You go into somebody's house and you see
this beautiful, this beautiful ceramic piece and it says Quailudes. Well,

(38:48):
needless to say, she sold it yea on pass mark
for like a quarter of the price and made like
nineteen dollars off of something that I paid well over
one hundred dollars for. And I'm like, what the fuck
are you doing? She goes to twentieth of what you paid.
She's like, because I didn't need it, she sold it.

(39:10):
She'd rather have the nineteen dollars. I'm like, that is awful. Well,
this was two years ago and I still joke about
it to this day. Do you know today we had
a Jonathan Adler candle in the studio and she came
into this Sam came into the studio. She was, oh,
what's that? I said, I said, that's a Jonathan Adler candle?
She was, I love Jonathan Adler And I'm like, um less,

(39:36):
do we forget a year and a half ago when
you sold the Quelude's Christmas gift I gave you because
you didn't know what Jonathan Adler was. Now, all of
a sudden, you've grown into Jonathan Adler. I'm just saying
it was. It would talk about like full circle and
now all of a sudden she's you know, she loves

(39:56):
Jonathan Adler, but yet she sold they Let me remind
you that was a johant to that little piece that
you sold at a fraction of the price to someone
a posh mark. And let me ask you a question.
Scary you like BMW? Right? I love BMW's BMW came
out with a with a minivan. Yeah, would you buy it?
Because since you love BMW? No? Right, that's the point

(40:18):
loving a brand and loving a drug related reference jar
that you have no use for is not the same
she likes the candle. So na, nah, that's what I say.
Nah nah, Well it's the boys podcast, scary. I did
a I cheated on you. I was on another podcast

(40:40):
that you've been on it. I've been on it, We've
been on it before. Yeah, I talked about it last week.
You know, I'm right podcast. Oh yeah, of course, and
the guys I cheated on you. I was on a
podcast yesterday too, So me nah. So, Nick and Joe
have tagged me on every social media platform multiple times.
If you're looking for it, just look for me being

(41:01):
tagged on YouTube and Twitter, and and and and wherever.
So it was a great podcast, Nick and Joel great
um and I wanted to give them a shout out
because we had fun on the podcast. Um and uh.
It was sponsored by my friend's restaurant in Staten Island,
New York, Juicy Lucy for barbecue. So if you're yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,

(41:26):
Juicy Lucy with the metallicus knowledge Lucy Lucy's Juicy Lucy Juicy,
I'm home. Hello. So I wanted to just mention that
that podcast, Um, there was something else I wanted to
mention about the podcast, but for the life of me,
I just had a brain fart. So we'll just leave it.
We'll just leave it at that, okay. Um, I want
to talk real quick if I can, about what happened

(41:48):
to me at at Tommy's Tavern and Tap. You've been there, right,
I sure have. They have several locations in New Jersey.
You know. Yes, I want to say I happened to
love Tommy's Tavern and Tap. All the food there is
very good. It's like a theme restaurant, but better food.
And most of the seating area on one half of
the restaurant is all television sets. There's got to be

(42:12):
like twenty television sets, so wherever you're sitting you can
look at a TV. And in the bar area there's
more TVs. Okay. And because they know a good TV
when they see one, they're all Samsung. Okay. One of
one of the better brands of TV is you Samsung TV. Okay.
So I'm gonna leave that in the back of you
mind for a second and let you know that I

(42:32):
was there on March thirtieth for dinner, I believe. And
when the bill comes she says, just so you know,
there's a three percent charge three point ninety nine percent
charge for using a credit card. So do I want
to pay cash? Cash? She's shouldn't splitting the bill at

(42:55):
my buddy, and I said, where is it? Where's there
a sign? Where is there anything that says just look
at the bottom of your check? Like then a bottom
of you check? I said, how does that help me?
Before I came here, when did you start that I
don't have I was like one hundred dollar bill for
the two of us. I don't have fifty sixty dollars
in my pocket. I'm not going to pay cash. So
it's as well. It's very unpopular. Oh I talked about

(43:17):
this something you know. I'm right podcast, That's why I
brought that up. She said, it's very unpopular. So just
so you know, next month we're getting rid of it.
But today I have to charge you. I said, wait
a minute. Next month is two days from now. Are
you saying if I come back in two days, I
want to pay this fee? Yeah? A lot of people complained,
So why am I paying it on March thirtieth? Yeah?

(43:37):
If you're ending it April first, Yeah, nothing I can do.
Fucked up. It is fucked up. So let me explain
to you. She's like, well, technically, we're giving you a
discount for cash. No you're not. No, you're not. You
didn't lower the prices. You Wait a second. What if
you sat there to midnight and then asked for the bill? Then?
Well I was two days later. It was the thirty
thirty one days about hypothetical. We should know that anyway, Yeah,

(44:00):
I couldn't. So here's what I want to tell you.
Here's why they do that. In case you don't know,
every time you use your credit card in a business,
the business play pays a small percentage of the transaction
to master Card or Visa or American Express or Discover whoever,
for the right to use the credit card. So, if
you own a gas station, you are paying a small

(44:22):
fee so that I can pay you. Right, you want
your customers to be able to pay you. So you say,
I'm gonna I'm gonna use credit cards and be for
the right to use credit cards, I'll pay the credit
card company. Well, now, what these motherfuckers are all doing
is that making us pay for the right for them
to have the right to use credit cards. We're paying

(44:43):
their fee. Are that's not right? Oh? Yeah, that's right,
they're passing they're passing it on to us. Right, So
not only are you paying interest on your credit cards
if you don't pay your bills, you are now paying
the restaurant's fee. Yeah. That they they said, I want
to own a business and I want to use credit
cards so my customers can shop here. Oh how does

(45:03):
VSA master Card make money? How do they make money? Well,
part of it, addition to interest payments, is they charge
the companies, the businesses a small percentage. So now they've realized, oh,
we'll just fucking fuck over the customers. Yeah it's not good. No,
fuck you. So so I did something that Tommy's tapp
and Tavern I didn't. I'm a nice person, so I

(45:24):
didn't go all the way with it. But I'm gonna
give you a little secret. I can't swear to all televisions,
and I can't swear to what kind of phone you have.
But if you have a Samsung phone, there's a program
called smart Things, and what that's designed for is if
you have a Samsung TV, you open up your Samsung

(45:45):
Things and it searches your house for Samsung televisions or
Bluetooth speakers or whatever. Yep, and it lets you connect
to them and then you can put whatever's on your
phone screen on your TV screen. That makes sense, right, sure. However,
when you're in a restaurant or bar that has Samsung

(46:06):
TVs and you open up the app and you search
for nearby TVs, the TV's in that establishment will show
up on your phone. And I was able to play
a Mets video on the screen of any TV I
wanted at Tommy's Tap in town. How great is that?
So I put this, I put my phone on the

(46:27):
screen for a second and I went, okay, I'm not
gonna fuck with them. My light coming here, and you
could see my phone logged in. It said, here's the
pin into the pin the code. I entered the pin code,
and it then said, so you could totally just take
over their system. That's yeah, each TV one at the time.
You know, there's a way. By the way, my friend's son, okay,
my friends sorry a year ago, was out in the

(46:50):
parking lot and put porn up on the TV. Oh god,
and then he was disconnected it. But he was able.
You could put an that was on your phone onto
any Samsung TV in public, and there's no way to
stop you. I'm just giving you that little tidbit. That
is great. Yep, you want to play some pranks on people,

(47:10):
well I think, well that that totally that totally. No, don't,
don't do it. I know you can't. I'm saying don't.
It's a tech, it's it's a hack. You do it.
Don't send us video or post it and tag us
whatever you do. Don't do that. Do not send it
to the Brook Boys Padroo Boys podcast at gmail dot com.

(47:32):
Do not send us that video of you tag us
if you post it, because that would be wrong, awful awful. Okay.
You know there was a similar system for a jukebox
where you can hijack the fucking jukebox box juke box,
oh juke or well the modern day juke boxes where

(47:52):
you just basically you can make a request for a
certain amount of money and they just plays the MP
three's for you. It's an MP three thing. It's not
it's not even on CD and more but anyway or record.
A lot of these, a lot of these um places
bars have that and you could hijack it for like
ten bucks, I just play the whole thing. I've forgotten.
There's like an app for it. I gotta, I gotta

(48:14):
look it up. But it reminded me of that, except
you're talking about porn or rather than porn. Why don't
you uh put up some videos of the Brooklyn boys?
Oh oh yeah, they'll never figure out who did it.
Then I'm saying, well, there are no videos, Well there's

(48:34):
well there's audio video, right, so you can No, you can't.
I don't think you can put it. It's too loud.
There's no volume on any of the TVs because there's
like twenty two idea like that. I mean, if you
were to take our logo off of a website, I'm saying,
technically you could, you could cast our video onto a

(48:56):
TV screen at a public place. I'm not saying you
should do that. Not do that, but if you did
do that, was there with your reward for that, and
then you posted the TV with our logo on it,
not photoshopped and tagged us, that would be bad. Also,
don't do that. Whatever you do, don't don't do that.
Mail talk that sounds like it's mail time. Welcome, you've

(49:22):
got mail. Yeah, an old friend is back. We haven't
checked our email in a while because we weren't so
busy with talkbacks, so if you if you want, you
could still old school, get in touch with us emailing
us at the Brooklyn Boys Podcast at gmail dot com. Um,
first of all, shout out to the grammar police people.

(49:42):
We have some grammar police. Uh whoever sent me that
assorted fudge signs sorted fudge four ninety nine. The problem
is they tried to abbreviate assorted and put ass period,
so now it just says that's fudge four ninety nine.
Thank you for that. There's also another grammar police. This

(50:05):
is a special sign, this one from Benjamin Long say, hey,
I saw this sign and um, I had to come
back and take a picture of it. Benjamin from South
Georgia takes a picture of a sign on a store
and it said ninety nine cent power every item ninety

(50:26):
nine cents and up or less. What the hell's that mean?
Ninety nine cents up or less? Yes, here, Brodie, I'll
show you. We're looking at each other in the screen. Yeah,
ninety nine cent power, ninety nine every item ninety nine
cent up or less. So what does that even mean?
I don't know what that even even means. What does

(50:46):
it even mean? What does it even mean. Right, okay,
so shout out, thank you so much for that. If
I could just add on, yeah, go for it, bass
hugah at bass Elope seven sent me something on Twitter. Are,
by the way, people who tweet at the Brooklyn Boys
and at David Brodie. That's great, but also put in
at Scary Jones. Please he didn't see this. He got
a group on everything here as it is at least

(51:10):
up to seventy five percent off. At least wait, at
least everything here. Hold on, let me see if you
can see this. Yeah, I could see it. Yep, too
bright everything everything here is at least up to seventy
five percent off. The fuck does that even mean? I
don't know at least seventy five percent off. I get
it at least up to seventy percent off. So thank

(51:31):
you bass who go all right? Yes, question for us?
Don't say my name, don't say my name. Don't say
my name, don't say my name? Has just signed a slice?
Question for you, Brodie, You're a smart guy. Thank you.
Leave it there. Just curious do you invest in bitcoin?

(51:53):
If no, would you in the future? What about you?
Scary would you? I saw on my PayPal app there
I was selling bitcoin. I was shocked since crypto is
not regulated and PayPal is widely known. Well, first of all,
I would double check that because there's been a lot
of scams related to PayPal and bitcoin, So make sure
that that's legit. And I don't know, bro, do you

(52:15):
go first about it? How do you feel about crypto?
I'm not touching it. Okay, that says a non expert,
but the experts say don't touch it, right, it doesn't exist.
I'm not doing it. And as a non expert as well,
I didn't invest non in bitcoin in ethereum, I invested

(52:35):
in crypto, and I've lost two thirds of my money.
So yeah, And now, had I gotten in at the
right time before the bubble burst, I would have made
crazy money. I have a friend who invested like six
seven years ago in all this and he cashed out

(52:57):
and bought himself a house. He made a lot of money.
I saw him buy the house and said, oh, I
want to invest now too. The only thing was a
month later the whole crypto market collapsed. Now it's stable.
It's been steady at a sixty six percent loss for

(53:20):
the past six months or me, So I think it's
I want to say it's bottomed out. Some people like
to call it a crypto winter. I'm not giving anyone
any advice on it. All I know is that once
it bottomed out from me because I got in right
as the bubble was about to burst, and I lost
two thirds of my money. The money is still there

(53:41):
the other third of it, and it's been steady at
a third, slashing around for seven eight months now. I
don't know what that means. All I could tell you
is it's been to this guy. I should right shout
out to Amanda Bazinski. You can read my name on
the podcast, asked what's up, Brodie? Scary scary Brodie. It's

(54:02):
a man to be from Hawaii checking in, always rocking
my Brooklyn Boys swag at the beach. It was such
a trip meeting you guys at the steakhouse meetup. Can't
wait if you to see if you guys are gonna
do another one. Lots of love Aloha, Amanda b and
she sent the picture of her on the beach with

(54:24):
her thermis and her Brooklyn Boys stickers. She made it
a Brooklyn Boys thermis. This is her own, it's this
is her yet as her yetti water bottle with all
of our stickers, with our stickers on it. So she
made her own Brooklyn boys, so like, thank you so much.
A man to be. We love you for that, by

(54:45):
the way, a man to be. If she ordered from Chipotle,
first name of last name, she'd be on the top
shelf next to David B. You would think, because it's
a bad breaking news, breaking news, now breaking news from fansided,
it's a Mets blog page. The headline it just popped
up in my Google a alerts fans roast the Mets
over new ridiculously large jersey patches absolutely one m One

(55:06):
person wrote, let him hear it. One person wrote, the
Earth is covered in seventy one percent by water and
twenty nine percent by this new stupid patch. Let him
have it. Oh my god, it's so bad, of course
it is. How can they get away with it? How
did they think that this was gonna be okay? Dear Mets?

(55:27):
Why did you make the patch bigger than the JumboTron? Yep?
Why are all the Mets suddenly in the hospital. Is
that part of the sponsorship? Oh my god, Um, did
the Yankees pay for that patch to be on your jersey? Yeah?
That's so great. Let him have it. Yeah. I don't

(55:51):
know if we shouted her out last month. It is
a month old. Nora Skelton is a new Slice for
Life hel to Skelton. But I think we said hi
to her last time. Hi again. You got you got
a second shout out? All right? What do you got
an email? Broody? I got some stuff I want to read.
This person wanted to buy something for me. I had

(56:11):
two lamps for sale, and they wrote, and so that
the title of the of my posting is they're available
two lamps. So of course they write, is this available?
I wrote back, yes, they are. He wrote, you the
letter have the number two. You have two? No question mark.
I don't know what that is. What do I do

(56:31):
with that? They're confirming that there's two lamps available? You
have two? You have two? Yes, okay, no question mark.
This person wanted to buy something that I was selling. Oh,
I'm selling something for you, Scary Jones, and I'm asking
three hundred and fifty dollars for it. It's something that
you have that's very valuable. You ask me to sell it? Yes,

(56:52):
and I'm selling it? And they wrote, is everything in
it brand new? I said yes, all used unopened. He wrote,
what's your best on it? Lowal and cash? Well, first
of all, I'm selling it on Facebook, so everything's local
and everything is cash. I said, so okay, So I
was selling it for four hundred dollars. I apologize. So

(57:12):
I said, I'll take three seventy five. Now again, he said,
what's your best on it? Local and cash? I said
three seventy five. He responded, would you do two fifty? No,
but you'll do three fifty take it? So I said, no,
thank you. I told you my best price. Well yet
you asked me again what my best price was? Why
why would you do that? No? No, no, no. Also,

(57:34):
I wanted to give you two examples of when you
correct someone be right okay. On Facebook there was this
video Riddles Right. People put up pictures in his riddles.
It says, I'm a word with six letters. If you
remove one letter, you're left with a dozen. Wait one
more time, I'm a word with six letters. If you

(57:56):
remove one letter, you're left with a dozen. So the
answer is s dozens dozen boys, you left with a dozen.
So Noel writes dozens is both singular and plural. Dozens
is not a word to which I wrote, Rule number
one of correcting people is to be correct. Correct you

(58:17):
are not dozens is a word like as in dozens
and dozens and dozens when you don't know how many
of something there are. Also, I was corrected by someone
who's not correct. I put up a clip of B Author.
I commented on a clip from B Author from the
nineteen seventies. She was on a TV show called Maude
m A U d E. It was a very important

(58:38):
clip and I commented on it and I said, amazing
that fifty years later she's that far advanced in her mind.
Such progress for a woman in nineteen seven. And there's
a fifty year old show. And Isaah wrote, this show
ran from nineteen eighty five to nineteen ninety two. It's

(58:59):
not fifty years old. And I said, rule number one
of correcting people is to be right. This show ran
from nineteen seventy two to nineteen seventy eight. It's called Maud.
You think it's Golden Girls, which is the wrong fucking show.
That's right, So don't correct me. Same same actress be
Arthur was in it. Right, be off, be correct, be Arthur.

(59:21):
And then I got one more thing. I wanted to
read here. Hold on, Oh, so the the the Philly fanatic.
We love the Philly fanatic. If you go to Phillies games.
We've met the Philly fanatic. Yes, we have. In fact,
I have his phone number. A character. He gave me
a cell phone number when we when I was when
we worked at on the radio st He said, if
you haven't anything, you haven't need him be doing an appearance.
Here's my phone number. So he was doing a bit

(59:42):
because there was chemicals dumped in the Delaware Delaware River,
and so he did a bit. It's on it's on Instagram,
and he the first class of water. So there's three
glasses of water and there's three cards identifying the water.
You mean, hold on, you're ruining my joke. Joke. The
first one it says tap water. He turns the cart around,

(01:00:03):
he says tap water, and he drinks it and he's
like thumbs up. Then he takes the second glass, he
turns it around and it says wood w O O
D E R, which is how people in fill it
go accent say wood. And he drinks that and it's fine.
Then he drinks the water from the Delaware River with
the chemicals and he dies on the floor. So this girl,

(01:00:24):
this girl corrects him and says, you spelled wonder wrong.
Oh my god. So then everyone has to explain to
her that it's wood. So I said, just out of curiosity,
what would wonder water be? Right? Like, yeah, yeah, you
don't make any sense. So again, don't correct people unless

(01:00:45):
you correct. And the last thing I wanted to read.
So you know, you get advertisements on Facebook for whatever.
So an advertisement popped up for hymns, which is a
hairy growth. You spray it on your head. Now, if
it works, Gary, would there be any bald people left
in the world? None? No, would Jeff Bezos be bald? Never?
If it worked. So this guy James writes to the company,

(01:01:05):
does it really work? What is the company going to respond? Scary?
Of course it works, right? What how can you does
it really work? What are they going to write back
to you? You're old enough to be bald, but not
old enough to be smart? Last question? Scary? Uh. There
was a posting for Emilio's Blato, a great Italian restaurant.
We're friends with the head chef and somebody. People are

(01:01:27):
writing like it's it's always crowd and hard to get
a table. And this person writes, how long would the
weight be if I got there at seven o'clock? Well,
how the fuck is anyone's supposed to know that? I
don't know. You don't know any on any given day? Right?
Is it raining? Is it a Saturday? Is it Tuesday?
Is it? Are they open? How long would the weight

(01:01:47):
be if I got there at seven? An adult? People
are dumb, That's my point. I'm sorry, Can I say
the R word? Sometimes? I just want to say the
R word? No rejects no VR word that we grew
up with that we can't say anymore because these people
are that. Well, how about this person? His name is Brendan. Oh.

(01:02:08):
There was an advertisement for How I Met Your Father
and it says Hulu original program, and then it says
it's a spinoff from How I Met Your Mother. So
this guy writes, Hulu colin. They say it's an original show. Also, Hulu,
it's a spinoff, doesn't make any sense. Well, it's a
Hulu original it because it's originated on Hulu and it's

(01:02:29):
first run. It's first run and it's a spinoff doesn't
mean it's not original. Oh my god. Yeah, people are stupid,
stupid with body and scary. Speaking of stupid, yes that's me. Oh,
what'd you do? I will never take the lead again

(01:02:51):
on someone's birthday when it comes to making plans. I
thought I was the man a few weeks ago. You
always do a few weeks ago, went out or one
of our coworker's birthday. She does one of the other
shifts at the radio station. She had a big dinner,
and then halfway through dinner at a restaurant, she's like, scary,

(01:03:12):
She's the other man about town. You know everything, you
know the places to go, you got the plug, you're
the hook up. Where are we going next? And I said,
where do you want to go? I said, I got connections?
So what do I do? I get involved? I'm texting
my friends, or what's the hot spot tonight? Where we going?

(01:03:33):
I come back with three three answers within a matter
of five minutes, and one of them was, let's go
to a strip club? Oh, because I had a help
to a strip club. My friend was like, dude, would
get your whole party through? There were twenty of us
having dinner. You know how difficult it is to move
twenty people anywhere on a Saturday night in New York City.
Very difficult, if only, if only, if anyone could do it.

(01:03:56):
Though it's scary, Jones, you know what, I pride myself
on that I was up for the challenge. I felt
it like more of a challenge, So I said, here
are three options. They quickly all jumped on it. Strip club.
We're going I'm great and the female disc jockey on
air personality to go along with. She was the one
who it was her idea, and all the women at

(01:04:17):
the table wanted to go to the strip club. It
wasn't the guys, it was the women. Now, so I
appreciate you're not mentioning her name, but there's only two
women who do shifts on. Both of them were there,
and both of them, three of them, yeah, two of
them were there part time. The part time one was
there too, yes, oh another uh. They were all there,

(01:04:38):
and they were all into the strip club. They all
wanted to go, including some promotions people whatever it was. Anyway,
there's no names. I'll say this twittled it down to
both women. When you're when you're halfway in the bag
and everyone's getting drunk at the table and they're halfway
through a dinner just I would cut your losses right there.
I wouldn't plan shit for anyone because stand up, yeah,

(01:05:01):
don't be that guy. But I had to be the man.
I had to show everybody I was the man. Oh
I can get that done. So what do you think
I did? I said, fuck it, we're going. We all
get there. It's down three hours later. Get to the club.
It was a trip club. They give us prime location.
They're like, you got a no bottle minimum, We're gonna

(01:05:23):
give you a free bottle to start, no bottle minimum,
no admission charge like that, front and center and pay
as you go. And then we're like twenty of us.
So what do I do. I'm like, you know what, great,
let's do that free bottle of vodka and we're gonna

(01:05:43):
start it off with a bottle of tequila too. So
here I am. Will you ordered the bottle? You had to? Well,
they take the person who they take my credit card.
They have to take someone's credit card an I d
when you get in there. It's part of the rules.
So we're sitting there and we're having a good time.

(01:06:04):
Five minutes in, ten minutes in the birthday girl, ten
minutes in ten minutes in. Yeah, all the alcohol hits
the birthday girl. She's fallen all over the place. Oh
my god, love whatever. She makes it about ten minutes
into her own strip club birthday party, after party, okay,

(01:06:27):
and then two people had to carry her out. Now
we're now you didn't volunteer at that point, I'm assuming
now they're seventeen of us, We've eat, we've all had
a drink or so, okay, and then once the birthday
girl leaves, the party starts to end because now the
people that are left have nothing to do with one another.

(01:06:48):
And they were all there for the birthday girl, and
people were tired, and they were drunk. You said, I
know it. After hours off everybody. So within the next
half hour, our party of twenty at the strip club
collapses completely, completely collapses. People start leaving left and right.

(01:07:08):
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom. Before long, there
was three of us left. By the way, were those
the names of the girls who danced there? Boom boom boom,
boom boom. There were two thirds of a bottle of
tequila left, two thirds. You made it sound like everybody
was drunk. Everybody was drunk. From the from the dinner. Oh,

(01:07:29):
what I'm saying is I was left holding the bag
Scary Jones, big Man on campus and then with it
was a half hour. We lasted about a good half
hour to forty minutes. And my buddy who worked at
the place, came up with me and we're like, dude,
what happened everybody? We gave you a prime location, we
set it up, and I'm like, you let the club down.

(01:07:52):
I did. And I'm like, failed at a strip class.
I'm so sorry. Guys. Did anyone get a lap dance?
No one got a lap dance? Sex in the champagne room.
I was so sex on the way. Dave wasn't there.
It was embarrassing. We made I made it. By the
time the last two of us crawled out of there,
it was we had been there from maybe forty five

(01:08:12):
minutes to an hour. It was like it was the worst.
And then I wrapped up the bill. People offered to
give me money, like, then, moan me some money the
strip the strippers, why didn't they just put money in
your g stresses? It was the lesson strippers. Lesson learned? No,
I did lesson learned less leave before Crystal to the
main stage, Crystal to the main stage. Did you leave

(01:08:35):
before that happened? I left before all of it. But
my point is just when you see don't get involved. Well,
you know, if it's you're a party, I get it.
If you put Scary Jones's neck on the line, you
use your cred to get the spot, the best spot
in the strip cloth. And I had to follow down,
and I had to follow through by bringing everybody there

(01:08:57):
and and buying a bottle. It was what you do
with the tequila. That's the sad part. You can't even
take it with you. You can't New York is you know.
I understand in certain states and the pandemic he used
to be able to not any longer. And in certain
states you can actually bottle it up, cork it up,
put a cap on it, and take it with you.
Not in the state of New York. So you can't

(01:09:18):
plug anything in a strip club. It just sucks. It
all went to waste. Hi O, I know, I know,
I know I'm ignoring you at this point. Thank you.
My point is, don't be the man. Don't don't try
and razzle dazzle everybody and show and and flex like
your contacts. It was just it was sad, you know,
I mean, and then I gotta have a bachelor party.

(01:09:40):
You could have had it, you know, but you took
a birthday girl to a strip club. She was all talk.
She'd called me the next day apologize. Yeah, She's like,
what happened last then? Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
I might want to venmo you and and I'm like,
it's fine, it's fine. Things are good. Where we had
a good You can't be mad at No, I'm not
added her mad at the night. I just I wanted

(01:10:03):
us to you know, I wanted full send that night.
I wanted you wanted everyone to come back and say,
scare you the man. Great night you got. You got mid.
You got mid. That's what you got. I got mid, right,
it was it was mid at best. You pick it
up lingo from your daughter's vibes. You got none of
the fields, you got nothing. It was mid. It was
so mid. You were choogie. Oh god, we have a

(01:10:24):
few minutes left because I have some things. Oh, let's
talk about Let's talk about the palm video. Let's talk
about palm baby. Okay, we gotta before you go, before
you go any further, yeah, let's call it what it is.
It's called chicken parmisana, and we'll explain. Okay, that's the
name of the dish. Chicken. Everyone repeat after us. Parmisana,

(01:10:48):
chicken parmisana. That is the correct didn't although although I
did google it, it seems that eggplant parmesana is more
common and chicken parmesan is more parmesan. Yeah. Well, well
we'll get we'll get to it. Okay, okay, but but
both of those terms mean uh from the recipe from
Parma Italy, it doesn't mean parmesan cheese. But anyway, little

(01:11:11):
miss Foodie, she's got an elite chicken palm recipe that
will blow your mind, little miss, little miss food. He
can't be wrong, little miss, little miss little miss food
he can't be wrong. Very nice, scary so um uh.
By the way, this was the palm doctors, right. Yeah,
So this this chicken palm hack that will blow your mind.

(01:11:34):
It's gonna blow my mind. It's gonna be bad. I
was today years old when I found out this recipe.
So her idea is to bread egg and bread a
cutlet and fry it like a cutlet, both sides right
in the starry in a pan. You want to put
sauce and cheese on top of that ham in the

(01:11:56):
frying pan. Spam, Yeah, and cook and melt the cheese
and sauce in the frying pan so that you save time.
And then you pour it over chicken breast. Ridiculous. That
is not chicken palm that's a that's a fried chicken.
And you poured sauce and cheese. The sauce has no
time to soak into the crust, the breading of the chickens.

(01:12:19):
The cheese didn't. It's terrible. So the comments, I'm not
gonna even read any of them, but you should go
and read. I wrote some comments, by the way, but
um uh. The people commenting on what a piece of
shit recipe? This is hilarious. Um. And then one person writes,
why do you call it chicken palmisan? There's no parmesan
cheese on it. It can't be put chicken pomesan. Well,

(01:12:41):
you're wrong again, will be right? Parmesan cheese, the grated
cheese you put on top, that's parmesan. That's parmesan p
A R M E S E A N. Right. But
that's not why chicken palm. It's not chicken parmesan because
you put parmesan cheese on it. Now, you can have
parmesan cheese in the bread crumbs and you could pour
it on top, you could sprinkle it on top. Right,

(01:13:02):
But it's called chicken palm because it's a recipe of
sauce and cheese on top of a dish created in Parma, Italy.
The fuck out of here parmigiana, and Parmigiana is p
A R n A g I A n A And
that refers to moots Yeah. Oh, and by the way,
she calls it mozzarella. So again, you're not gonna give

(01:13:23):
me a chicken palm recipe. Will you refer to the
cheese on top as mots arella? It's mozzarella if you're
gonna be authentic. So I'm signed, little miss Foodie. Little
Miss Foodie can be wrong, You can be wrong. Yeah,
tell her, tell her that, Tell her how great her
chicken palm recipe is terrible. Anyway, we're done with her.

(01:13:43):
And I think when when Burger King came out, remember
Burger King came out with you, Well, they came out
with the sandwich. It's called the Italian original chicken sandwich,
which is basically chicken, well their version of chicken and
unmelted cheese. So here's the problem, and here's the here's

(01:14:05):
the disconnect, Brodie Um. If you look at advertisements for
b K and their chicken parmesan m I will show
you exhibit A the way they spell it. Yeah, you
can spell. They spelled it chicken parmesan with this still
means that's parmesan. Cheese is from Parma. No, but that's

(01:14:27):
where they all comes from, right, But the Parisiana is
the mut the MutS, and it speaks to the MutS
and tomato sauce. If you google is parmesan, it means
sauce and cheese. That's it. It's a recipe. But it's
but it's cheese. Usually yes, well, but but I the

(01:14:51):
parmesan cheese p A R M e es e an
the way burger king is spelling. The name of the
sandwiches is the graded stuff that you put over it,
or you put in the breadcrumbs. It's not muzzedella. It
could be mus. I don't think it is scary chicken
parmerjan the spelled the way you want that you're saying, uh,
p A R m es a n eesa still is

(01:15:13):
still refers to my cheese and sauce muzzaedla cheese. Yes,
well provolone according to the web. But I never would
put provolone on my chicken parm I wouldn't. Uh, some
people do. I do not. I understand why the comments are,

(01:15:34):
are you why they don't, Why they don't get it?
You know, why why there's a disconnect. I can understand
the confusion. I really can, because not everyone was born
in Brooklyn like we were. I mean we we lived it.
This is with like the home of Chicken parm right,
you know, or Parma Italy? Right? Wait, did they spell
it e n? Did you say s e a n

(01:15:54):
burger king in all their ads when they weren't calling
it the Italian chicken sand? Which spelled it p A
r m E s e a n which is raw machean,
which is armchan. No, that's parmesan with parmesan cheese, with
which is the When you say p A r m

(01:16:15):
E s e a N, you're referring to the grated cheese.
You're referring. No, there's no e. I'm looking at it.
Whatever it is. P A R M E S a
N is parmesan cheese. Hold on, you are p A
R Oh my god, p A no p A R
M E s A N. Sorry right, yeah, you added

(01:16:37):
an E. No no, yeah, yeah, I'm sorry. I stand corrected.
I meant there's no e. Parmesan cheese is the cheese
or a style of recipe either way. I could see
people fffing it up. I could see people being confused.
Other people from other parts of the country, you know,

(01:16:59):
they just don't. Don't be a little missfoody and then
tell them and then pronounce it monza and and and
all these gratuitous people trying to make recipes that from
foods that are already made and then throwing him in
a blender and then recreating it in another format. But
you're not doing it. You're not doing anything. You watch

(01:17:21):
chef reactions, right, I love chef reactions. One of my
favoritetions on Instagram is fantastic. He watches people try to
reinvent the wheel and goes, what are you doing? What
are you doing? Just put it in a pan like
you crumble a bunch of cookies, and then you throw
it in a food processor with other cooked items that
are already made already and then just it's it's like, uh,
it's like a woman cookie I made a Sunday. Look,

(01:17:42):
I know you're not doing shit. You're not doing shit,
you're not really cooking. But I also think these people
are going for the viral hit so people like us
would talk about it. I think she said mozzarella deliberately.
Someone did something so fucking stupid the other day. They
took a dozen eggs and it took it, and it
took a an ice cube tray of twelve ice cubes
with twelve eggs. They literally cracked the twelve eggs in

(01:18:06):
the twelve yolks, in the twelve compartments for ice cubes,
in what she called an ice maker. It's an ice tray,
it's an ice maker. And she threw it in the freezer.
And then she comes out and now now each egg
is its own individual ice cube. And she throws it
in a fucking frying pan with no butter, and she
fries in and she makes eggs. She was look what

(01:18:26):
I did, And the whole point was, look, you can
make individual eggs. Eggs already. Individuals come in their own shell. Yeah,
you fucking moron. Oh, by the way, when you watch
food videos, now I want you to watch out of
something because they want you to comment. What they do
is they put things in the cabinet or in the
freezer or in the refrigerator that don't belong there so

(01:18:47):
that you'll get interactions and send it to your friends
and like, look at this person. So this egg person
had tampons and Maxi pads in her freezer. Yes, And
then the one one video I was watching, it was
a guy made can um I don't know, he's making
Lucky Charms cake or something, and he opened up his
refrigerator and there was a bottle of tide in it.

(01:19:09):
So I'm just letting you know. It's not like what
a weirdo. They want you like, why do you have
tied there? Yea? They want you to interact with them
and send it to your friends and go look at
this woman, I know, and then you want they want
you to look up and go why would I put
tampons in the freezer? And they want you to ask people.
It says it's stick it work. But also they realized
they figured out the algorithm. They know that the more

(01:19:30):
comments they get, the viral the video will go. So
