[SPEAKER_04]: Hey guys, Paul here.
[SPEAKER_04]: Come along and see us.
[SPEAKER_06]: Let's go!
[SPEAKER_00]: You can listen to the Michael Marasho at michaelmarasho.com.
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow, what a happy year.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a podcast.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I want to excitement.
[SPEAKER_07]: We have today.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the Michael Marasho with Michael Marasho and Rob Spuac.
[SPEAKER_00]: And now here's Rob.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's not Mike.
[SPEAKER_04]: They're not introducing Mike.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm impressed you made the audible.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, well, you know what?
[SPEAKER_04]: All I know is that if a podcast isn't audible, why do it?
[SPEAKER_05]: And I know I am tired of that Paul McCartney clip.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, you are?
[SPEAKER_05]: Can you trim it to just the let's go?
[SPEAKER_05]: We'll see.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't think we need the this is Paul.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, I mean, he's obviously very tired when he recorded it and you want to give him all that he needs to do.
[SPEAKER_04]: Let's hear it again.
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm sorry you have to hear it again, but listen how tired he sounds.
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey, guys, Paul here.
[SPEAKER_04]: Come along and see us.
[SPEAKER_04]: Let's go.
[SPEAKER_05]: Like they just woken and a poor
[SPEAKER_05]: even at it, like his voice changes.
[SPEAKER_05]: His voice tone is different from the beginning to the end.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's really weird because you would think that he of all people would be able to secure a good recording of a voice.
[SPEAKER_04]: He's been at it for a while.
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, folks, no more Paul today.
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey, it's Rob with Josh.
[SPEAKER_04]: This is not called jars, but it is the Josh and Rob show.
[SPEAKER_04]: And Mike is unable to join us today because he's mourning the loss of the Stephen Colbert.
[SPEAKER_05]: He fell off the boat.
[SPEAKER_05]: I thought this weekend.
[SPEAKER_04]: Also that he was so shocked with the news about Goldbear.
[SPEAKER_04]: He fell off the boat.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, Mike is having a total internet crash to a point where he couldn't even raise enough energy to try to join us.
[SPEAKER_04]: And he is right now head to head with the smartest people at Comcast.
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm sure he'll be done any minute.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, I believe the last one said I need a new modem with the last update we saw.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay, Josh, you know this stuff does he need a new modem?
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know because I didn't do any of the troubleshoot and I've left it to Comcast.
[SPEAKER_04]: I understand.
[SPEAKER_05]: Maybe we might need to do a three way call with Comcast later.
[SPEAKER_04]: I understand that as well.
[SPEAKER_05]: But I will say we have had some huge storms down here in Florida.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: And I know he has said him to like right here for the past ninety minutes.
[SPEAKER_05]: There's just been thunder outside my house.
[SPEAKER_05]: There's been no rain just constant loud rolling thunder where I keep waiting for the skies to open up and they have it for ninety minutes.
[SPEAKER_04]: So no rain at all.
[SPEAKER_04]: Just thunder since three o'clock.
[SPEAKER_04]: So with that being said, even if the rain comes crazy, that shouldn't affect internet, should it?
[SPEAKER_05]: No, but lightning will and power search as well, because that will take out your modem.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, and that can also, they can hit a transformer.
[SPEAKER_05]: Right.
[SPEAKER_05]: If there's like bump will be a modem, it would probably an electrical surge.
[SPEAKER_05]: Does he not have a surge protector?
[SPEAKER_05]: I do not know that.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, you helped him wired the studio.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know, I'm thinking more of, well, I wonder what took out the Scarlet because we had to replace his Scarlet.
[SPEAKER_05]: And now I'm wondering if maybe there needs to be a surge protector because maybe a surge is taking out multiple things.
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, I'm afraid that one good hit might take him out.
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, those headphones go right in his ears.
[SPEAKER_04]: He could be gone, gone, gone, gone.
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, we are here.
[SPEAKER_04]: There's no reason to not do a show.
[SPEAKER_04]: As Josh said, well, we're here.
[SPEAKER_04]: So, yes, we are here.
[SPEAKER_04]: The first things I wanted, first of all, welcome home.
[SPEAKER_04]: You haven't been home for many days since some of the game.
[SPEAKER_05]: I've not been home for seven straight days.
[SPEAKER_05]: since the beginning of May.
[SPEAKER_05]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_05]: Because of travel and two jimmies.
[SPEAKER_05]: Then Boston.
[SPEAKER_05]: Right?
[SPEAKER_05]: In the New Jersey trip.
[SPEAKER_05]: Then the outer banks.
[SPEAKER_05]: I am home today.
[SPEAKER_05]: Got home last night.
[SPEAKER_04]: I'd like to think that the New Jersey trip really should be referred to as the King's Dominion trip.
[SPEAKER_05]: I, I, the king's the minion part was the high part of the trip.
[SPEAKER_04]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_04]: I just like good hearing.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes, but, but your home, the muscle, then the kidney stones trip or the, or the camp trip will focus on the king's the minion.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's the blue ice cream trip.
[SPEAKER_04]: Right.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, thank God your home and you know what it must be.
[SPEAKER_04]: I know that sometimes getting away as nice, but as a Frank Sinatra saying, it's very nice to go traveling, but it's also nice to come home.
[SPEAKER_05]: I asked my wife today said, when's our next trip?
[SPEAKER_05]: She said there's nothing on the calendar right now until the cruise.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh wow.
[SPEAKER_05]: Very thankful about that.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's like six months.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's great.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, you can get those things done around the house, change some light bulbs, things like that.
[SPEAKER_05]: I put up a seal in for you today.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, there is nothing worse.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, that's bad.
[SPEAKER_04]: Do you do it by yourself?
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: Did you know I guess if he was the was it replacing a ceiling fan or installing one?
[SPEAKER_05]: It was replacing a light and putting a ceiling fan where I like used to be.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, so did you have enough bracketing already in there that you didn't know?
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, so it's not so bad.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, it wasn't bad at all.
[SPEAKER_04]: The hard thing about that is doing stuff above your head.
[SPEAKER_04]: I hate that.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes, this was by my daughter's bunk bed, so I just sat in the top of the bunk bed.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, that's a lucky thing.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I had installed a lighting fixture in the upstairs.
[SPEAKER_04]: I guess the living room and it was a Edison bulb fixture is very neat, you know, eight Edison bulbs.
[SPEAKER_04]: But it was not like the one that preceded it, so it had to sort of finagle to make it land up there.
[SPEAKER_04]: If you ask me, if while I was installing it, did I fall off a step ladder?
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes, I did.
[SPEAKER_05]: But, but did you fall off due to electrification?
[SPEAKER_04]: No, no, just clumsyness.
[SPEAKER_04]: I learned that day that the best shoes for using a step ladder are not Birkenstocks.
[SPEAKER_04]: So don't use those anyway.
[SPEAKER_04]: So when I fell, I mean, and it was a good, like both feet leave the ladder fall and landed, I believe sort of sideways and ended up face down to which Robert, who was ostensibly helping me came up and said,
[SPEAKER_04]: Dad, it's crooked.
[SPEAKER_04]: Not okay, not what happened, but he just called to mind Maya, Andy work.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, I'm glad you got the ceiling fan it.
[SPEAKER_05]: I got the same fan down.
[SPEAKER_05]: There's more projects to get that enough to be in a way for so long.
[SPEAKER_05]: And now we are in full, get ready for school.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yeah, because your school starts pretty early.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, that's eleven.
[SPEAKER_05]: So, do you feel that's too early as a parent?
[SPEAKER_05]: You know what it is as a parent?
[SPEAKER_05]: No.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: As a northern nerd.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, they started to begin in August because they get out like before Memorial Day.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: So they just started out because June and July are so hot in Florida.
[SPEAKER_05]: They just have to do a little bit.
[SPEAKER_05]: Time shifted it.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: Right.
[SPEAKER_05]: So it doesn't it feels weird to me to start real early.
[SPEAKER_05]: But the fact that they get out May as a parent, I'm ready for them to go back to school.
[SPEAKER_04]: I would think so.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, man.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: But the schools are air conditioned.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: OK, because I mean, I don't want to really show my age, but we had a couple of school closings at Madison High School.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_04]: We told Warhawks based on heat, because it was in an air conditioned school.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, here they do it because of the kids have to walk home in the heat.
[SPEAKER_04]: I see.
[SPEAKER_05]: But whatever they've shifted and this week, we have middle school like try out day or whatever.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so if that's when you get into middle school?
[SPEAKER_05]: Well they go.
[SPEAKER_05]: You have to sing a song to see if you get into school for like three hours where they get to try out their lockers.
[SPEAKER_05]: See where the lockers.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: To the classes, you know, because this is all new going into sixth grade.
[SPEAKER_05]: I remember this with jump between classes.
[SPEAKER_04]: with Julia, they really kids sweat the locker.
[SPEAKER_04]: They don't want it to not open.
[SPEAKER_04]: They really don't like that notion.
[SPEAKER_04]: They want to have everything available at all times.
[SPEAKER_05]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_05]: And the concept of going from class to locker to class.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_05]: And the other class might be on the other side of the building.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's a scary concept for these kids.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's something you have to work out.
[SPEAKER_04]: But I hope they do well.
[SPEAKER_04]: Do they have to provide their own locker?
[SPEAKER_04]: Is the lock already on the locker?
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh no, I have to pay like twenty five bucks to rent a lock for the year.
[SPEAKER_04]: rent a lock and so it's not a built-in.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, that's a scam.
[SPEAKER_05]: I assume that no matter what it's a scam because I can't use my own lock, which is five dollars.
[SPEAKER_05]: So I pay them twenty five dollars.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, and you know what, it's not to rent the lock.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's to rent the locker, which has a built-in lock, I believe.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, if you choose not to rent the locker and you just like give your kid a huge backpack, he just carry everything around.
[SPEAKER_05]: Apparently the justification is not everyone wants a locker.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, it's not that.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's what they want to make me, that's what they use as an excuse for me to pay.
[SPEAKER_04]: What they want is they want everyone to give them twenty five dollars.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's for the whole year.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_05]: I hope.
[SPEAKER_05]: I hope so.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's my understanding.
[SPEAKER_04]: How many students in the school do you know?
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm guessing about five hundred because it's three grades.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's three grades.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: That sounds about right.
[SPEAKER_04]: So that's that's an extra twenty five hundred bucks right in their pocket and they don't have to do anything.
[SPEAKER_04]: That sounds like corruption and maybe crookedness.
[SPEAKER_05]: It, no, it sounds like twenty twenty five where there's a fee for everything.
[SPEAKER_05]: Have you fought this?
[SPEAKER_05]: Has no one fought this?
[SPEAKER_05]: The locker fee?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: I just found out about it and I don't really have a choice, I was just like, okay, whatever.
[SPEAKER_05]: I have not fought it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, you, well, you better fight it because pretty soon they're going to be charging for everything.
[SPEAKER_04]: School trays, every napkins, they'll get you coming and going.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's what the, but that's what everyone does.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: If you go by a technical ball game, they have to add on a convenience fee, even though the only way to purchase it is online.
[SPEAKER_04]: and it's not very convenient for them.
[SPEAKER_04]: Now speaking of ball games, before we get to this, because I did mention this to you when we spoke to the Kelsey's freak off that is, I think it's still, it winds up today, doesn't it?
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know, I saw videos of people splashing.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I saw a photo of like a sleepover movie night or something, you know, like you would do in your twelve.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I saw a picture of Dennis in the pool, but he looked like he just might be remains of a survivor of an accident.
[SPEAKER_04]: But I'm sure he's fine.
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm sure.
[SPEAKER_05]: It looks like it looks like they are having a wonderful time and a great time.
[SPEAKER_04]: I was shocked when we did our little visit with them at one o'clock Eastern, ten o'clock, freak off time on Saturday.
[SPEAKER_04]: I was shocked how many people they had in that one living room, they really have a lot of folks.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes, it looks like, I try to figure out, it's like a twelve year old birthday party.
[SPEAKER_05]: Tomorrow we'll get the feedback about Michael's birthday party, but it looks like a bunch of adults have an birthday party.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I love it.
[SPEAKER_04]: It was so much fun to see everybody in so many familiar faces all put together like that fantastic.
[SPEAKER_04]: So congratulations to the Kelsey's and I won't name all the the attendees because I don't want to leave anyone out.
[SPEAKER_05]: But and that party always makes a great donation to the show.
[SPEAKER_05]: So thank you.
[SPEAKER_04]: Thank you guys.
[SPEAKER_04]: Wonderful.
[SPEAKER_04]: Look like they had nice weather and all things like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I know that a jazz state on the East Coast, but she did post a picture of her TMO has beach towel.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: You don't even know that.
[SPEAKER_05]: My mom does a lot of this print-owned demand stuff.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: Like we do for the beach towel and some of our beach shirts.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: Or she has a whole business where she does that stuff.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: So I was spending time with her this weekend.
[SPEAKER_05]: So she was showing me all these other stuff that we could put up on the store.
[SPEAKER_05]: So I put up some bottle openers.
[SPEAKER_05]: Great.
[SPEAKER_05]: That makes sense.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: I started making card magnets that I think I'll get up later this week.
[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, I love that.
[SPEAKER_05]: I put one product up selfishly for myself because when I put it in I said I want to buy that.
[SPEAKER_04]: What is it?
[SPEAKER_05]: It is a set of pickleball paddles with the TMS logo on it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Good Lord.
[SPEAKER_04]: There is a set.
[SPEAKER_04]: You don't just buy them single.
[SPEAKER_05]: You have to buy a set.
[SPEAKER_05]: Why?
[SPEAKER_05]: I just wanted one.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_05]: But it's not on our website because I have ordered one.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, go ahead of me.
[SPEAKER_04]: Everyone get to the store.
[SPEAKER_04]: I like the idea of the car magnet.
[SPEAKER_04]: They're good.
[SPEAKER_04]: You know what?
[SPEAKER_04]: They're great for covering dense.
[SPEAKER_04]: They are.
[SPEAKER_04]: If you're selling your car, you can do that.
[SPEAKER_04]: And the bottle opener, it used to be a very important thing to me to have a bottle opener.
[SPEAKER_04]: It still is, but it used to be more part of my lifestyle.
[SPEAKER_04]: But it's a French magnet, too.
[SPEAKER_05]: So it'll hold.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: I have one of those, well, I won't tell you, but it was a president.
[SPEAKER_04]: A couple presidents ago.
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't want to cause trouble.
[SPEAKER_04]: Not your guy.
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't have his magnet.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, I don't want to cause trouble.
[SPEAKER_05]: I collect all the president magnets.
[SPEAKER_05]: I did not know that.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, it's a set.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, like the pickle ball battles.
[SPEAKER_05]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_04]: So when we were talking to everyone at the Kelsey's, and thank you again to Steve and Janet for doing that.
[SPEAKER_05]: And the people still there.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I know.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, isn't like Jim Amado is staying for like three weeks, right?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I think I'm in Dennis Murphy bunk beds.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, they got there.
[SPEAKER_04]: They were the first to arrive, and they will be the last to leave.
[SPEAKER_04]: And some, and that way, you can turn a weekend into a week.
[SPEAKER_04]: Like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_04]: So enjoy everybody.
[SPEAKER_04]: I said to you when we were on the visit.
[SPEAKER_04]: I said, you'll never guess where I'm going tomorrow.
[SPEAKER_04]: And you guessed King's Dominion.
[SPEAKER_04]: Not so.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's because of a due to a misunderstanding with my wife.
[SPEAKER_04]: I went to see the nationals play the Padre's afternoon game on Sunday.
[SPEAKER_05]: Now, how did you get mixed into going to a baseball game?
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, first off.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, well, first off, I don't hate baseball.
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't hate watching the game.
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't hate the experience.
[SPEAKER_04]: I like it.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's fun.
[SPEAKER_04]: But it's not I don't have the
[SPEAKER_04]: the sort of where with all you do to like travel to games and see multiple games that's a district for me I like it and so um... she bought tickets and she did this like a month ago and she kept saying well we're gonna go this day and we're gonna have seats in the shade and we we we we we we and that's great all the way all but
[SPEAKER_04]: What I assume she was saying was her and Robert, because her and Robert go to more sporting events than I do, and they've gone to see caps, games, and stuff like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: So I assumed I would be home, but she says, oh, no, no, no.
[SPEAKER_04]: We as all of us, that's the three of us, and that way you can drive.
[SPEAKER_04]: said.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: And I said, they take advantage of you being sober then.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, there's that.
[SPEAKER_04]: And then also remember the last time that Kerry drove to a sporting event.
[SPEAKER_04]: the car seized.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, right.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: So it's a little bit of that lock and pressure.
[SPEAKER_04]: I think so too.
[SPEAKER_04]: And besides, it's been a long time since I've driven on South Catholic street.
[SPEAKER_04]: My favorite road in Washington, DC.
[SPEAKER_04]: So after going there and it was it was hot, but not oppressive sunny day.
[SPEAKER_04]: I think a one thirty five game.
[SPEAKER_04]: And
[SPEAKER_04]: As we're driving there, I said, you know what?
[SPEAKER_04]: This is going to be fine.
[SPEAKER_04]: This is going to be nice.
[SPEAKER_04]: But as I sorted to live the experience of Nat's Park, I began to realize this is a very
[SPEAKER_04]: adequate baseball stadium.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's and I won't give it anything beyond the hat.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, it's a larger minor league ballpark.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's exactly how, although I almost sent you a picture, they have a fill your own skill-tup machine.
[SPEAKER_05]: Free can now.
[SPEAKER_05]: With their own flavors.
[SPEAKER_05]: I do like that.
[SPEAKER_05]: There's five dollars.
[SPEAKER_04]: I think it was an eight dollar and a thirteen dollar size skills.
[SPEAKER_04]: I do like Skittles.
[SPEAKER_04]: I know you and to think you could pick your own flavors.
[SPEAKER_04]: It would be great.
[SPEAKER_04]: So it does.
[SPEAKER_04]: It has that, especially, you know, the courtyard and when you get in it's nice.
[SPEAKER_04]: But when you get into the stadium, it feels sort of tight and hemmed in.
[SPEAKER_05]: And they do that open concourse.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, you're supposed to be able to see the ball feel from anywhere.
[SPEAKER_05]: Right.
[SPEAKER_05]: But it's all flat.
[SPEAKER_05]: So you can't see it.
[SPEAKER_05]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_04]: So we get there.
[SPEAKER_04]: And first off, parking as is anything.
[SPEAKER_04]: in Washington, D.C.
[SPEAKER_04]: Parking is a pleasure.
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: So I just, uh, rude.
[SPEAKER_04]: Steve Kelsey says you need to be louder.
[SPEAKER_04]: I did.
[SPEAKER_04]: So turn my voice.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, thank you.
[SPEAKER_05]: So yeah, garage or even a little lot against the river.
[SPEAKER_04]: I had no plan.
[SPEAKER_04]: So I just, I, I waged my way to the stadium.
[SPEAKER_04]: And that's another thing.
[SPEAKER_04]: You don't see the stadium until you're there.
[SPEAKER_04]: you know baseball is known for skylines yes and outfield skylines there is nothing in the national stadium skyline to tell you that you are in Washington DC and beyond that I I couldn't even see the stadium until I was like on it I mean I was next to it before I saw it because it's surrounded by buildings that are very tall so I get there and the first thing I see is parking lots see
[SPEAKER_04]: and it's terrific.
[SPEAKER_04]: It is when you exit parking lot see, you are leaving the parking lot and you are at the game.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I said, this is almost like science fiction.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, you need a pass for see.
[SPEAKER_05]: You didn't know that.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, I drove into one into right.
[SPEAKER_04]: I drove in and they waved me through and they waved me through and they waved me through and I got to the top and the guy says, do you have a permit?
[SPEAKER_04]: I said, I do not.
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, can I pay?
[SPEAKER_04]: He says, no, leading, we don't think that maybe there is a chance I could pay.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so I countered with, well, what's the best way to get out of here?
[SPEAKER_04]: And he looked at me and the cars behind me and he said, sixty dollars.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so I gave him my card.
[SPEAKER_04]: He says, no, no, no.
[SPEAKER_04]: Cash.
[SPEAKER_04]: So this guy's helping himself out.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, he's letting you because he's letting you and a lot that you're not supposed to be in.
[SPEAKER_04]: But you know what, it was worth sixty bucks in cash because it was so perfect.
[SPEAKER_05]: But you had it, you had sixty bucks in cash.
[SPEAKER_04]: Sure, carry carries cash.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't carry cash.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, what would you, in that situation?
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, that's, you know, that you stopped carrying cash after I kept asking you.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that's the point where it's a vennel.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, but this guy was going to he I imagine he put his job on the line by letting us in for sixty dollars cash, but we got a good parking spot.
[SPEAKER_05]: I believe the deck and you are he's been watching it for a while and knows that this parking lot has not filled up.
[SPEAKER_05]: All year.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, I mean, the attendance of the game to say it was a third full would be really generous.
[SPEAKER_07]: Right.
[SPEAKER_04]: So anyway, so that was a win, even though I was part of some sort of shenanigans.
[SPEAKER_04]: So we get to the game and you just look around and I the only thing can really draw a comparison to is the other major league park that I've been to is Camden Yards.
[SPEAKER_05]: Now, that's also not fair because Camden Yards is a top five park.
[SPEAKER_04]: doesn't matter.
[SPEAKER_04]: Kits is a lot newer than Camden yards.
[SPEAKER_04]: They should have made it better than the top five that already existed.
[SPEAKER_04]: But when you go into Camden yards, you feel, first of all, it's got the beautiful facade of those warehouses and it's right in the middle of everything.
[SPEAKER_04]: And you walk into whatever court yard or entrance you're doing at Camden yards.
[SPEAKER_04]: And you feel like you're entering something.
[SPEAKER_04]: And yes, when you go to an ads game, it feels like you've just happened upon something.
[SPEAKER_05]: Whenever I went to an ads game, yeah, I always felt like no one is here to watch the baseball game.
[SPEAKER_05]: I got a lot of that.
[SPEAKER_05]: They're here just to hang out.
[SPEAKER_05]: They're here to be seen as the local bar.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, they don't and there happens to be a baseball game going on.
[SPEAKER_04]: So we get in and Kerry says, I want a pretzel.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I say, well, that's probably not the best authentic park food you could get, but help yourself.
[SPEAKER_04]: A pretzel counts.
[SPEAKER_04]: When you lead with a hot dog, though, when you lead with a hot dog.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes, of course.
[SPEAKER_05]: They always introduce new foods and I'll try the new food in all these stadiums.
[SPEAKER_05]: Right.
[SPEAKER_05]: But I always got a hot dog in every baseball stadium.
[SPEAKER_04]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_04]: You have to.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so I think she got the pretzel because it was the first thing she saw.
[SPEAKER_04]: And that's like a pretzel.
[SPEAKER_04]: Right.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I don't she's got all the cash in the card.
[SPEAKER_04]: So I don't say any you want to water.
[SPEAKER_05]: I bet you it is like Baltimore and once you get in the park, no cash.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it is a cashless part.
[SPEAKER_04]: It is, but she had the card and the cash.
[SPEAKER_04]: So she got a pretzel.
[SPEAKER_04]: I did kind of water.
[SPEAKER_04]: Robert had a water.
[SPEAKER_04]: She had a water.
[SPEAKER_04]: So for two waters and a pretzel, I believe a twenty twenty three.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, that's a little high.
[SPEAKER_04]: And those prices are
[SPEAKER_04]: adequate, it's an adequate pricing system.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so that's all I'm giving it to this point.
[SPEAKER_04]: So we go in and what's fun is that the escalator is right there and it takes us literally to our section, to a one.
[SPEAKER_04]: We hop on the escalator and it spits us out right at section to a one.
[SPEAKER_04]: So we go to our seats and they are in the shade, they are
[SPEAKER_04]: right by the third base fall yellow pole right we're not in the outfield but along the third baseline can see everything the seats are adequate because they are not
[SPEAKER_04]: We tried sitting the three of us in a row and there just wasn't room.
[SPEAKER_04]: I'll take the bullet on this.
[SPEAKER_04]: This was me.
[SPEAKER_04]: Luckily the game was so sparsely attended that we could spread out sort of in our area.
[SPEAKER_04]: And later a guy would say an older man would sit in front of us who had a distinctive smell of bourbon on him to a point where I could smell it and say, you know what?
[SPEAKER_04]: That's not even cheap bourbon.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's pretty good.
[SPEAKER_04]: He's been at the bar for a while and he would
[SPEAKER_04]: He would cheer kind of like this.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: To be fair, there wasn't a whole lot to cheer for in that game either.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, well, yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's, you know, what the team was adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: They, uh, they did give up a grand slam in the top of the first.
[SPEAKER_04]: This happens.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, adequate play.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, and I only gave up four more runs after that.
[SPEAKER_04]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_04]: It was a never a nail biter.
[SPEAKER_04]: I did look down to carry.
[SPEAKER_04]: And we decided that the pod rays of the worst uniforms in pro sports where they were in the Brown and yellow ones.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, they just looked, they were, no, well, they were just tan.
[SPEAKER_04]: They were just tan.
[SPEAKER_04]: They all looked like they worked in the service industry, which there's nothing wrong with that.
[SPEAKER_04]: But when you know, nine janitors right out on the fields, oh, no, it's the Padre's.
[SPEAKER_04]: The Padre's uniforms were adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so we go around and I'm just not feeling the game experience, the in-between in-game that they put on the job of trying to work like the DJ.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, lazy and then they got the other guy up there who is the announcer and he was playing like they were in the playoffs with standing remotely and it was just landing flat and so we stayed for the game and we watched it and it was inadequate and then we left at the middle of the eighth
[SPEAKER_04]: and Carrie said, uh, all the bets I placed.
[SPEAKER_04]: I said, what?
[SPEAKER_04]: None of them hit.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, no.
[SPEAKER_05]: I said, wow.
[SPEAKER_05]: The hometown.
[SPEAKER_04]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_04]: So, uh, yeah, that was adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: But anyway, uh, good seats, uh, go nuts.
[SPEAKER_04]: Very exciting.
[SPEAKER_04]: I think the, are they seventeen games out now?
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a lot.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know if it's that bad, but I know the nationalists are not having a good season.
[SPEAKER_05]: They fired their manager just like the Orioles did this season.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, his management was adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's the problem.
[SPEAKER_04]: They need to do it now.
[SPEAKER_05]: The nationals are fifteen games out of the wild card.
[SPEAKER_05]: I was not that far off.
[SPEAKER_05]: You were not.
[SPEAKER_05]: The Orioles are only eight and a half out, which still seems like an eternity.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, they will get there.
[SPEAKER_04]: They will get there.
[SPEAKER_04]: Easy, calm.
[SPEAKER_04]: Because you know why they're better than adequate.
[SPEAKER_05]: They're excellent.
[SPEAKER_05]: They did have the because they're so bad.
[SPEAKER_05]: They had the number one pick at the draft this year.
[SPEAKER_04]: And Carrie as we're leaving, she says, do you want anything?
[SPEAKER_04]: Do you want a hot dog?
[SPEAKER_04]: Do you want Ben's chili ball?
[SPEAKER_04]: That's the best thing to get there.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I do want a funnel cake.
[SPEAKER_04]: I said, I don't want anything because these prices are adequately too expensive.
[SPEAKER_04]: Let's just go home.
[SPEAKER_05]: Did you see the little freight containers out in like the outfield concourse area where they would like to sell stuff out of like a freight container and stuff?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: I saw that out there used to be one out there, which was the WJFK.
[SPEAKER_05]: One of six seven the fan container and shows with broadcast from inside those little boxes.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: And I would walk past and feel so bad for whoever was in there trying to do their sports talk.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, at the game.
[SPEAKER_04]: It was dark.
[SPEAKER_04]: The radio coverage for the game was adequate because the studio was not, there was a WJFK studio that was not turned on.
[SPEAKER_04]: There is one piece of landscaping, as I'm looking around this ugly, I hate to say it.
[SPEAKER_04]: This ugly ass ballpark that there is like a grass simulated hill with a grass w in it.
[SPEAKER_04]: And that's it.
[SPEAKER_04]: As far as decorations go, that's it.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so as we're leaving, Harry says, are you sure you don't want to funnel cake?
[SPEAKER_04]: Which means she wants a funnel cake?
[SPEAKER_04]: I said, right.
[SPEAKER_04]: Let's get one.
[SPEAKER_04]: But they were closed.
[SPEAKER_04]: None funnel cakes.
[SPEAKER_04]: So the hours that they run the funnel cake stand were adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: And anyway, we got home luckily because it was a lightly attended game that we left early.
[SPEAKER_04]: Traffic wasn't that bad.
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, rub rub rub root for the home team and if they don't want it to shame, well, it was a shame.
[SPEAKER_04]: And that was my experience at Nads Park.
[SPEAKER_04]: Now you've been to every baseball stadium.
[SPEAKER_04]: Almost.
[SPEAKER_05]: Almost.
[SPEAKER_04]: Almost.
[SPEAKER_05]: Not even that.
[SPEAKER_05]: I think I've been to like eight.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: We go with to hit them all.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: How many are there?
[SPEAKER_05]: Uh, thirty.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_04]: All right.
[SPEAKER_05]: Twenty-two.
[SPEAKER_05]: Something like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, hold it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Do you count Memorial Stadium?
[SPEAKER_05]: No longer in circles because I know Memorial Stadium, but it is now a like park or something.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, but did you does that count on your eight?
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_04]: All right.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, that didn't count my eight.
[SPEAKER_05]: I guess it should.
[SPEAKER_05]: How about RFK?
[SPEAKER_05]: And I've been to both Yankee Stadiums.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, that's neat.
[SPEAKER_05]: So I've got that and I've been to RFK and I've been to Nat's park.
[SPEAKER_05]: Did you see a ball game at RFK though?
[SPEAKER_05]: I did.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, that's cool.
[SPEAKER_04]: I like that.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's a horrible stadium for baseball.
[SPEAKER_05]: You know what?
[SPEAKER_05]: I maybe have only been there for football.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm trying to think of them that if I told them that to play there.
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, actually, RFK's not that great for football.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, it's not.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's horrible.
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, so that was my day.
[SPEAKER_04]: And you know what?
[SPEAKER_04]: I wanted to ask you of the ones you've been to.
[SPEAKER_04]: Would do you feel that there are anyone that are worse than that's part?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: What would you say?
[SPEAKER_05]: Now, I will say, yeah, I'm when I try to run stadiums or whatever, it's tough because for Camden, Camden yards is a church to me.
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay, yeah, I agree.
[SPEAKER_05]: I agree.
[SPEAKER_05]: Where I go and my life is different and I can focus and block out everything else in the world.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's your Kingston minion.
[SPEAKER_05]: It is.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's my Kingston minion.
[SPEAKER_05]: You see, that's sweet.
[SPEAKER_05]: The absolute worst ballpark is proper canopy out in Tampa.
[SPEAKER_05]: Isn't that the one that just lost its roof?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, it lost its roof, so they're not playing there this year.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: But it is so bad that they have taken some outfield seating where no one would sit and they have just put wood planks over the seats to then make it like walkway that they could then sell concourse and sell food and stuff on.
[SPEAKER_05]: where the seats were.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's really depressing.
[SPEAKER_05]: And then they just don't open up the upper deck unless it's playoffs like the third level of the upper deck.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's right.
[SPEAKER_05]: Your indoors baseball indoor sucks.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I would think so.
[SPEAKER_05]: I went to the skydome in Toronto, which is indoors.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: They have this magic button where the roof opens up.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: And then you don't feel like your indoors.
[SPEAKER_04]: Now does every seat have that button?
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah, and it's a vote.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's a voting scheme.
[SPEAKER_05]: He's not hit more than the other person.
[SPEAKER_05]: More super chats.
[SPEAKER_04]: And if it's a tie, they just open it halfway.
[SPEAKER_04]: Right.
[SPEAKER_05]: It goes back and forth the entire game.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, that's better than the ball game.
[SPEAKER_05]: Right.
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, so yeah, I just, I'm not impressed.
[SPEAKER_04]: One thing I did like is, it's adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's an adequate baseball park.
[SPEAKER_04]: And you know what?
[SPEAKER_05]: It's like this show, adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: I feel that I can make it to Camden yards in about the same amount of time because of my distance from your city.
[SPEAKER_05]: In Northern Virginia, you can because the city is so bad together.
[SPEAKER_04]: So anyway, boo, there was, well, the other good moment beside the Skittles machine,
[SPEAKER_04]: And I really, I really should have taken a photo.
[SPEAKER_04]: Is that Robert found a plaque that commemorated the night Paul McCree.
[SPEAKER_04]: They had like all the concert people.
[SPEAKER_05]: They've got plaques about baseball things.
[SPEAKER_05]: They're all over the place.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, they have to.
[SPEAKER_04]: He found the Paul McCarney plaque and said, Dad, why is the Pope's plaque bigger than Paul?
[SPEAKER_04]: I said because he's the Pope.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's why.
[SPEAKER_04]: I mean, Paul's pretty big.
[SPEAKER_05]: The Pope, the Pope's pretty big deal.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, he has a big deal, but he never had a hit record.
[SPEAKER_04]: So anyway, that's that was my day at the ballpark and we do have some beautiful video to play.
[SPEAKER_04]: But before we get to that, I want to ask you, have you ever heard of Livy Dunn or Olivia Dunn?
[SPEAKER_04]: Olivia Dunn?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, the name.
[SPEAKER_05]: She is a, she is an actress.
[SPEAKER_04]: Neither she is an influencer who used to be.
[SPEAKER_04]: She's the gymnast.
[SPEAKER_04]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_05]: I know who Olivia Donn is.
[SPEAKER_04]: Let's take a look for those who don't know who she is and this particular Instagram post got her into trouble.
[SPEAKER_04]: first semester grad school done house hunting at the beach bought a New York city apartment and walking to get a pinia colata you know she's not a bad looking lady but apparently if you buy an apartment that has like
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's something bigger than an HOA.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's like the board of the apartment.
[SPEAKER_04]: Did you ever watch only murders in the building?
[SPEAKER_04]: I have.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's like one of those buildings.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_04]: She bought it and she was a couple days away from getting the keys.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_04]: And it was not an impressive apartment.
[SPEAKER_04]: It was the apartment owned by Babe Ruth.
[SPEAKER_04]: What?
[SPEAKER_04]: Hold on.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: So it's an old building then.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, but it's been.
[SPEAKER_05]: I saw for a long time.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's right.
[SPEAKER_05]: He was adequate.
[SPEAKER_05]: So I assume it's been remodeled.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes, it has.
[SPEAKER_05]: It was a. He lived in this apartment.
[SPEAKER_04]: This was the apartment that he lived with with Mrs. Babe Ruth.
[SPEAKER_04]: It is a is on the seventh floor.
[SPEAKER_04]: Three bedroom two and a half bath at three forty five West eighty eight street.
[SPEAKER_04]: But she paid one point five nine million cash.
[SPEAKER_04]: because apparently she made that's how I buy houses too.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, it's that, you know, you save on the interest.
[SPEAKER_04]: She made a lot of money with her name and likeness deal with the NCAA.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, she made nine point five million through the name, image and likeness rules in the NCAA.
[SPEAKER_05]: So she goes and she pays cash.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, no, you're not.
[SPEAKER_04]: Because you're not, you're not.
[SPEAKER_05]: You mean the male gymnastics aren't making nine million?
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, it's not so much about that.
[SPEAKER_04]: I think you're too lengthy.
[SPEAKER_04]: I might be weak.
[SPEAKER_04]: You know what, maybe if we could do doubles.
[SPEAKER_04]: All right.
[SPEAKER_04]: Because together, we look like a semicolon.
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, the board said, they don't want this kind of attention on their building and they quashed the deal.
[SPEAKER_04]: Based on that one post, you didn't say where she bought the apartment?
[SPEAKER_05]: Now I know why I know the name.
[SPEAKER_05]: Why?
[SPEAKER_05]: Her boyfriend, her boyfriend is like the star pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, is he adequate?
[SPEAKER_05]: He's well more than adequate.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, so, well he does.
[SPEAKER_04]: I bet he was excited to live in Beirut's apartment.
[SPEAKER_04]: And you know, do things that couples do.
[SPEAKER_05]: But why are you buying an apartment in New York if you work in Pittsburgh?
[SPEAKER_04]: Uh, is it Paul Skinniss?
[SPEAKER_04]: Skinns?
[SPEAKER_04]: What?
[SPEAKER_04]: Skinns?
[SPEAKER_04]: Skinns.
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_04]: I guess if you're an influencer, you want a place in New York, right?
[SPEAKER_05]: I guess, yeah, I guess you have.
[SPEAKER_05]: I, what am I talking about?
[SPEAKER_05]: These people can afford houses everywhere.
[SPEAKER_04]: But I just don't think it's fair that she was excited to buy this place and a lovely lady like that could shut out by the, the old Crohn's on the board because she's an influencer.
[SPEAKER_05]: Is that what they voted out?
[SPEAKER_05]: I know stupid HOAs you have to technically be approved to buy in it in the building and all.
[SPEAKER_04]: And they were approved leading up to it to a point where everything looks so good.
[SPEAKER_04]: They hired an interior decorator, but then they were shocked and displeased to find out that the board rejected them and would not reconsider.
[SPEAKER_05]: One and now who lives in this building?
[SPEAKER_05]: It's got to be other famous people.
[SPEAKER_05]: Right, but you're too good for a star pitcher.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: And an influencer, like you don't want these people.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's not like they're not real celebrities that would have a bunch of paparazzi.
[SPEAKER_05]: They're sports people.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_04]: I just think it's not fair.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'm not sure I'd be all that excited.
[SPEAKER_04]: I know about Babe Ruth's diet.
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not sure that's the apartment I want.
[SPEAKER_04]: Maybe something adjacent.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm impressed that Babe Ruth walked seven flights of stairs.
[SPEAKER_04]: There's no saying that he did that.
[SPEAKER_04]: I mean, their elevators were around back then.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I guess so.
[SPEAKER_04]: So yeah, and Mrs. Ruth was there.
[SPEAKER_04]: What was her name?
[SPEAKER_04]: I lost it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, uh, I just think it's very, yeah Pittsburgh pirates and boyfriend of Paul Skennis visiting the co-op and they aborted it.
[SPEAKER_05]: They just knocked it out from under and Quinn's got a good point in the chat.
[SPEAKER_05]: They're probably just preparing for the Yankees to sign Paul Skennis at some point because that's what they do.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's spent all the money in bringing all the best players.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's, and you know what, and now he's got baby apartment to stay in.
[SPEAKER_04]: How very nice.
[SPEAKER_05]: He doesn't.
[SPEAKER_05]: He doesn't have it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, no, and in theory, that would have been the plan.
[SPEAKER_04]: Now, I'm sorry that he can't stay there.
[SPEAKER_04]: Any other old New York Yankees that she should look at apartments for, Lou Derig?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm sure there's been plenty of, I think there's plenty of nice apartments in New York City.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't want it necessarily buy one because Bay Brews lived in here.
[SPEAKER_05]: The Sultan of Swat?
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, and it's not like he just moved out.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, he just he just moved out.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, he died in nineteen forty eight.
[SPEAKER_05]: Like how many people have lived there, but since they've moved, it's not that big of a deal.
[SPEAKER_04]: New York City put a plaque on it.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's that much of a big deal to them.
[SPEAKER_05]: Do you know, well, you know, people in Baltimore still talk about how the baby's dad had a bar in Baltimore.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's right.
[SPEAKER_05]: It was right where home play is now in Camdenyards.
[SPEAKER_04]: And that's true except it isn't right.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, technically that is true.
[SPEAKER_04]: Isn't it?
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: And then there's a home nearby where you can go visit and see Babe Ruth's little bassinet that he was in.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's a baby and other things in the Babe Ruth's museum.
[SPEAKER_04]: Peace.
[SPEAKER_04]: A lot of people don't know, he's left in the bathroom until he was twenty two.
[SPEAKER_05]: I also made his way back to the bass in that.
[SPEAKER_04]: The people should know that if you're not familiar with the work of Babe Ruth, look for him in movies where he played himself, which is really sort of depressing.
[SPEAKER_04]: And then if you ever watch the movie, the Babe Ruth story, that's a great movie where the babe misses a game because he hits a line drive and batting practice and nearly kills a dog with it.
[SPEAKER_04]: and he left the stadium to make sure the dog was okay.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, normally they would like to focus on the whole hit a home line for a kid.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, they didn't do that as much unless they didn't do that.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's what they did on the, uh, I believe it's John Goodman and the Bay.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, the Bay, yes.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's good.
[SPEAKER_04]: Speaking of the Bay, have you seen this video of Living Dog?
[SPEAKER_04]: That's the day right there.
[SPEAKER_05]: Apparently so.
[SPEAKER_05]: All right.
[SPEAKER_05]: My whole childhood.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: My mom told me I was related to Babe Ruth.
[SPEAKER_04]: Why?
[SPEAKER_05]: And because her maiden name was Ruth and her family, always assumed they were married related to Babe Ruth until they finally did a twenty one in meter, whatever.
[SPEAKER_05]: And there's no relation at all.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, there's no alcohol exchange.
[SPEAKER_04]: But she was told it as a kid.
[SPEAKER_04]: I was never told I was related anybody.
[SPEAKER_04]: In fact, my parents denied the fact they were related to me.
[SPEAKER_04]: They did their best.
[SPEAKER_04]: All right.
[SPEAKER_04]: You know what?
[SPEAKER_04]: We're going to pause a moment.
[SPEAKER_04]: But when after you hear this important message, I do have some beautiful video for you.
[SPEAKER_04]: So stick around a folk.
[SPEAKER_04]: We'll be back after this.
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, I like that some beautiful video.
[SPEAKER_04]: Cherry time time and I. Ladies and gentlemen, Charlie Van Dyke.
[SPEAKER_04]: So I just found out this today.
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, very sad.
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm, I'm no great fan of Bill Cosby.
[SPEAKER_04]: Not many people are anymore, but Malcolm Jamal Warner, who played, I guess the third oldest child in the Cosby show.
[SPEAKER_04]: He played Theo Huxtable.
[SPEAKER_05]: The oldest, I thought, right?
[SPEAKER_05]: No, because there was a sister.
[SPEAKER_04]: There was the one who just, two older sisters, right?
[SPEAKER_04]: So he was, I guess, the middle child.
[SPEAKER_04]: And he passed away over the weekend with swimming accident in somewhere near the Caribbean, I suppose.
[SPEAKER_04]: They were on vacation.
[SPEAKER_04]: And it struck me.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it struck me because that's, that's my age.
[SPEAKER_04]: So anyway, I like this clip.
[SPEAKER_04]: I actually remember this clip.
[SPEAKER_04]: from when the cause be show was on.
[SPEAKER_05]: I hate that we can't watch the cause be show anymore.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's sad that it should be in reruns.
[SPEAKER_04]: But you know, you can, you can argue that if you like.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, no, no, no.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm not taking that stand.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm just saying I have great memories.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it was a solid solid sitcom.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I believe this is early on and the plot maybe remember this plot.
[SPEAKER_04]: Theo wanted to buy a very expensive shirt.
[SPEAKER_04]: and he went out and charged it.
[SPEAKER_04]: And the end of the story is that his sister, Lisa Bonet, she made him a horrible shirt.
[SPEAKER_04]: But this is when Cosby, Dr. Cliffhuxtable, finds out how much he paid for the shirt.
[SPEAKER_04]: The one thing I want you to watch here, don't pay attention to Bill Cosby.
[SPEAKER_04]: But pay attention to Malcolm Jamal Warner, who's probably maybe fourteen here.
[SPEAKER_04]: And he's handling the sitcom laughs and the pauses and the delivery, just like a pro.
[SPEAKER_06]: Fuck, how much?
[SPEAKER_06]: But real, real.
[SPEAKER_06]: It's a fact.
[SPEAKER_06]: Pure silk.
[SPEAKER_06]: Are you hands clean?
[SPEAKER_06]: Doctors' hands are always clean.
[SPEAKER_06]: The while they always wash, he knew me.
[SPEAKER_06]: How much?
[SPEAKER_06]: Dad, if you want quality, you're gonna have to pay for it.
[SPEAKER_04]: So it goes into the box to pull out the receipt.
[UNKNOWN]: Oh, there must be a pair of pants in there too.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's a very talented young man right there.
[SPEAKER_04]: And I think it's really sad that he had to meet that end.
[SPEAKER_04]: So it's very weird when a child star that you literally grew up with is old and you know, they pass.
[SPEAKER_05]: And it's just like a piece of his gun instantly recognized.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, guy, because he was so show up occasionally on shows.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, parts and you would instantly say, oh, it's Theo.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, well, my love to his family because that's not anything that anyone deserves.
[SPEAKER_05]: You never prepared for that.
[SPEAKER_04]: All right, local news in DC, let's say you have a pretty high ranking.
[SPEAKER_04]: I believe it's a collegiate baseball team and your field, first of all, you're eager to play because you've had so much rain lately.
[SPEAKER_04]: Lots of rain up here and they've had so many rainouts.
[SPEAKER_04]: So let's say you get back to play and there is a
[SPEAKER_04]: adjacent to your field, there is a fire station.
[SPEAKER_04]: What you don't want to do is hit the baseball as a home run into the car of one of the firemen.
[SPEAKER_04]: Let me let you see this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Look at this video.
[SPEAKER_01]: You probably saw it first.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen this happen at the lead before Tom Rousy's exit count.
[SPEAKER_01]: Montgomery County Fire and Rescue is now apologizing after this scene after a fire fighter sprayed so much water onto a baseball field behind the firehouse.
[SPEAKER_04]: Wait, so he turned the hose on and did this on purpose?
[SPEAKER_01]: You canceled their game.
[SPEAKER_04]: They got rained out again because of the fire.
[SPEAKER_04]: He was so pissed that the baseball in his car, but why didn't anyone go turn it off?
[SPEAKER_04]: No, he was manning it.
[SPEAKER_04]: He was using it.
[SPEAKER_05]: He's up there holding it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes, he was.
[SPEAKER_04]: So anyway, so don't don't do that folks.
[SPEAKER_04]: I like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: I thought you would.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's a Florida guy.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, but it's a Florida guy, but it's in like Montgomery County.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, yeah, but he's the type of guy who he's going to get old.
[SPEAKER_05]: He's going to move down here and be one of those.
[SPEAKER_05]: These red necks down here.
[SPEAKER_04]: He could live near Mike.
[SPEAKER_04]: They could be buddies.
[SPEAKER_04]: Mike needs friends, right?
[SPEAKER_04]: When you have a delivery brought to your house, you just want the food brought in.
[SPEAKER_04]: Maybe he rings the bell.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, you don't want him to be nearly struck by lightning.
[SPEAKER_04]: You don't want this, but it happens.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'll put the food down first.
[SPEAKER_04]: Here comes.
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_05]: What's that lightning way in the background?
[SPEAKER_04]: No, but I think it was very close because of the loudness of it, although it's not really well reflected on the bell.
[SPEAKER_04]: You can't really hear it, but the homeowner was very kind and said, do you want to check your drawers?
[SPEAKER_04]: Which I think is polite.
[SPEAKER_05]: I am impressed at the end drop the food.
[SPEAKER_04]: Me too.
[SPEAKER_04]: I think that's great.
[SPEAKER_04]: Bangor main.
[SPEAKER_04]: I've been there.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's close to where Mike has a place up in there.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's wonderful.
[SPEAKER_04]: It is.
[SPEAKER_04]: They've got a firework store.
[SPEAKER_04]: I know this to be a fact.
[SPEAKER_04]: However, tough weekend in Bangor because not only was it hot, but a guy got onto this roof.
[SPEAKER_04]: wouldn't get down because he claimed there were drugs in the chimney.
[SPEAKER_02]: Man was on this metal roof at this home here behind me for nearly seven and a half hours in this brutal heat.
[SPEAKER_02]: That man is now in custody and he's on his way to the hospital for evaluation.
[SPEAKER_02]: Good.
[SPEAKER_02]: of, uh, look at some of the video from earlier today.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're told the homeowners were, uh, woke in around four AM this morning when they heard something on their roof.
[SPEAKER_02]: They went to the back deck.
[SPEAKER_02]: There is a ladder up against the back of the home.
[SPEAKER_02]: They say that's when they saw the man on the roof.
[SPEAKER_02]: Although they've never seen this man before.
[SPEAKER_02]: When they asked him what he was doing, they say he yelled down to them, but he was trying to retrieve drugs out of the chimney.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're told he also had a knife.
[SPEAKER_02]: They call police and when Bangor fire and police responded, the fire department put a basket up near the roof.
[SPEAKER_02]: The homeowner's point for us as an axe was attached to it.
[SPEAKER_02]: He then jumped from the roof to the basket, grabbed the axe and jumped back on the roof.
[SPEAKER_02]: We spoke to that homeowner, Peter Reedan, who lives at this home and he said, he tried to talk him down.
[SPEAKER_03]: And he was not coming down, no matter what I said to him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now here's the thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's funny.
[SPEAKER_03]: You jumped from our roof to the basket.
[SPEAKER_03]: retrieve the axe and then perceive the chop holes in a roof.
[SPEAKER_04]: They were using the pickup basket to send him a bottle of water as part of the negotiation.
[SPEAKER_04]: But there was a fireman's axe on it and he took it and he started chopping their metal roof.
[SPEAKER_04]: So good for them.
[SPEAKER_05]: I was glad you were able to help me understand that.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: I was trying to figure out why the axe was in it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, he is not hurt.
[SPEAKER_04]: He is not hurt.
[SPEAKER_04]: He is right now believe it or not.
[SPEAKER_04]: You may not believe this.
[SPEAKER_04]: He is in a hospital right now for observation.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, a psych ward.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, but I don't know if there's any drugs in the chimney or not.
[SPEAKER_05]: Imagine thinking there's a raccoon or something on your on your roof and going on.
[SPEAKER_05]: You're seeing a man.
[SPEAKER_05]: I would hate it.
[SPEAKER_04]: I would not like that.
[SPEAKER_04]: And so keep that in mind the next time you hear it.
[SPEAKER_04]: And also, check your chimney for drugs.
[SPEAKER_04]: There's, you know, you don't want people coming.
[SPEAKER_05]: They did not say if there were drugs or not.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, they never did.
[SPEAKER_04]: And you know, in that guy that was talking, he seemed a little suspicious.
[SPEAKER_04]: Maybe he knows about the drug.
[SPEAKER_04]: All right, last video today, and thank you folks for joining us for this abbreviated edition of the Michael Mary Show.
[SPEAKER_04]: Full episode tomorrow, of course.
[SPEAKER_04]: I love when kids are pampered and babyed and made to feel like heroes when they're in the hospital.
[SPEAKER_04]: Robert spent so much time in the hospital.
[SPEAKER_04]: I love when they roll out special treats for kids.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, this hospital for the kids.
[SPEAKER_04]: No, it's not.
[SPEAKER_04]: In this hospital, when kids are coming out of anesthesia, if it's timed right, I know that Robert was visited by several like support dogs that were friendly dogs that would come visit him always nice.
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, this hospital has miniature
[SPEAKER_04]: Horses, just like Arnold Schwarzenegger does.
[SPEAKER_04]: No.
[SPEAKER_04]: I know.
[SPEAKER_05]: I know.
[SPEAKER_04]: I know.
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't think that's good for anybody.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, I don't think it's good for the horse.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'd say everyone got heaven wrong.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's a horse plan of keyboard.
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_04]: I know if Mike was here.
[SPEAKER_04]: He'd want it one more time.
[SPEAKER_04]: So let's do have it one more time.
[SPEAKER_07]: I want to say the kid like reaction.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, wow indeed.
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, so if that was me, you know what?

[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, did you see the dolphins?
[SPEAKER_05]: I did not.
[SPEAKER_05]: Somehow he got a whole family of dolphins to follow him on his boat.
[SPEAKER_04]: They're all fans.
[SPEAKER_04]: They're all people.
[SPEAKER_04]: They love it.
[SPEAKER_04]: Those dolphins are named Dennis and Steve and Janet and Jim.
