[SPEAKER_07]: We have today.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's the Michael Mera Show with Michael Mera and Rob Spuac.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now here's my...
[SPEAKER_13]: Always turn the microphones on, young broadcasters.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thursday on the Michael Mary Show.
[SPEAKER_13]: Glad to have you with us today as my wife said to me today, morning came early.
[SPEAKER_13]: It did.
[SPEAKER_13]: It did in the O'Mara household, even though a very, very early to bed last night, just seemed to come a little early.
[SPEAKER_11]: Is that her own expression?
[SPEAKER_11]: Cause it's poetic.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's very nice.
[SPEAKER_11]: I've never heard that before.
[SPEAKER_13]: Maybe I slept through it.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's kind of an old saying.
[SPEAKER_12]: I like it.
[SPEAKER_13]: I like it.
[SPEAKER_12]: I'm working on one, too.
[SPEAKER_12]: The early bird gets to worm.
[SPEAKER_11]: How about this?
[SPEAKER_11]: Have you heard that one, Rob?
[SPEAKER_11]: Here's a, have you heard this one?
[SPEAKER_11]: Sometimes the producer shuts up.
[SPEAKER_13]: Welcome to the Michael Emery Show.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, well, it is, I don't want to say the schedule that I have here is frantic, but it's certainly a very busy one.
[SPEAKER_13]: And this year, my son has bus service out in the wilds of where we live, going to his school.
[SPEAKER_13]: So we used it for the first time today, and she said it went great.
[SPEAKER_11]: Where does the bus come like in front of your house or is there like a sound?
[SPEAKER_13]: No, we have to hit over to the local church.
[SPEAKER_13]: to, uh, okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's just about a two minute drive away.
[SPEAKER_13]: So it's not easier, but that's yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: And it saves time.
[SPEAKER_13]: Um, my son, I, I had mentioned to you, uh, made the golf team, and then immediately he has his first practice.
[SPEAKER_13]: Um, schedule now will be, uh, golf practice on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and baseball practice on, uh, we just lost John's for a second.
[SPEAKER_13]: on Thursday and Saturday.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, on Tuesday and Thursday.
[SPEAKER_13]: So he's got something every weekday every weekday every single, but I'm not sure if that's going to continue, but then we still have an added his third sport, which is rec baseball.
[SPEAKER_13]: which many many kids do that are into the the baseball.
[SPEAKER_13]: And that'll tie up some of the time to it.
[SPEAKER_13]: But the good news is this is a tested schedule that another parent recommended to me who I have a lot of faith in.
[SPEAKER_13]: So we shall see what goes on.
[SPEAKER_11]: But to be I hate to exhibit my lack of sportsmanship.
[SPEAKER_11]: But what is the difference between baseball and wreck baseball?
[SPEAKER_13]: He's on a travel team where they have tournaments on the weekend.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then his other wreck baseball will be having a game during the week.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then he's got, you know, and I love it.
[SPEAKER_13]: I love it.
[SPEAKER_13]: I think it's I've got the wherewithal Carlos got the wherewithal to haul them around and do that stuff.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I am and we even had time for for a little dinner at my favorite joint that you guys have been.
[SPEAKER_13]: The Mia, the Mia.
[SPEAKER_13]: And the thing is though,
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm getting payback now for something I used to mock.
[SPEAKER_13]: I've done it in front of you, Rob.
[SPEAKER_13]: You've seen me mock my outfit.
[SPEAKER_13]: They'll shine.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Many, many holidays would, you know, suck a piece of roast beef or roast turkey into his windpipe and have a choking jag.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I figured out yesterday that you shouldn't make fun of family members because genetically you have the same code.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, you won't become them.
[SPEAKER_11]: Absolutely, but I think it's great that the the template was laid by Bill.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I, you know, and we've got people like that in my family, too, that they really can be reduced down to like three numbers.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's simple.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's not pretty.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's not pretty because the Omera family
[SPEAKER_13]: I do it, even though I didn't, you know, my sister's seven years older than I was a lot of time when I was like, you know, seven years older, yes, she'd love you to say that.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I can't.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I mean, I'm in my house with just my folks for a lot of my teen years, while she was away at college.
[SPEAKER_13]: And so I shouldn't have this, my father grew up with siblings, but the Omeras
[SPEAKER_11]: we have a tendency to just shovel food into our mouths like there's nobody's business do you think you're in a small household so i mean i can see that like my mom was one of eight my dad was one of five five boys and dinner was put down it was a race yeah
[SPEAKER_13]: And I think I probably could use that as an excuse if there were siblings in the house, but there weren't.
[SPEAKER_13]: Now, with my cousins, John and Teddy and Billy, if Teddy and I are at a party and somebody puts out a platter, you're going to automatically see Teddy and I.
[SPEAKER_13]: gravitate towards that, tightly, it's just what we do.
[SPEAKER_13]: And it's not, it's not anything I'm proud of.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's my favorite.
[SPEAKER_11]: He sat next to Robert and I when we were in Maine and Robert was his first time cracking open a real lobster.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, he had lobster, but he cracked it open and he pulled out, Robert pulled out a beautiful piece of claw meat and Teddy looked over and said, that stuff doesn't taste very good.
[SPEAKER_11]: I should probably have that.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, it's the lobster jokes.
[SPEAKER_13]: So here's what happens with my amcobiles Sheen.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay, because I can do an analysis of it.
[SPEAKER_13]: He is bad.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, he's bad.
[SPEAKER_13]: Long set.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay, all my great memory I have of my amcobiles Sheen is that I'm walking out of my father's funeral.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, my father died, uh, due to smoking related illness, uh, we probably it was not around back then.
[SPEAKER_13]: There was not the name COPD did not exist.
[SPEAKER_13]: Right.
[SPEAKER_13]: A particular point, but that's really what, uh, what did him in at the age of seventy seven.
[SPEAKER_13]: And, uh, we walk out and I look across and
[SPEAKER_13]: My uncle Bill Shin is with his gal pal, and he's immediately lighten up a choke.
[SPEAKER_13]: Right, right in the crowd.
[SPEAKER_13]: They could not get the cigarette.
[SPEAKER_11]: I love people that smoke on church property.
[SPEAKER_11]: Just think it's great.
[SPEAKER_13]: But I've got a vivid memory in a green Volvo.
[SPEAKER_13]: I will remember it for a long, long time.
[SPEAKER_11]: Was the gal pal younger than Bill, or were they really contemporary?
[SPEAKER_13]: She was a bit younger.
[SPEAKER_13]: She's gone.
[SPEAKER_13]: She's gone too now.
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, they're, you know, I'm old now.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I know.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, when my mom passed away, my cousin Johnny, funniest line at my mom's a little memorial service, little reception afterwards said, well, that's it.
[SPEAKER_13]: We're in the Undex Circle now.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's the great guys.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't think when you guys shake your head like it's not reality.
[SPEAKER_11]: But it is real and it's so sad.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's a great circle of life.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I think the combination of
[SPEAKER_13]: just coal shoveling food into a mouth, and then not wanting to hear any other speaking except your own.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thusly trying to speak and eat at the same time results in a problem of what happened to me.
[SPEAKER_11]: In the past, you indicated maybe, or maybe I'm making this up, that it might have had something to do with Uncle Bill, with the dryness of the meat.
[SPEAKER_13]: OK, let me get right into my situation.
[SPEAKER_11]: OK, I didn't want to, I don't want to look ahead.
[SPEAKER_11]: I just want to let all the factors be on the table.
[SPEAKER_13]: There, you always look at Irish families, you always look for blank.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yes, judge.
[SPEAKER_12]: Well, I want to know what stage it says, because you enjoy other things there as well.
[SPEAKER_12]: OK, good point.
[SPEAKER_13]: Good point.
[SPEAKER_13]: How it has to wait through halfway through.
[SPEAKER_13]: And do you have another lung disease yourself?
[SPEAKER_13]: Are you?
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm constantly referring to that in your annual lung infection.
[SPEAKER_11]: Um, I will get through it.
[SPEAKER_11]: I really appreciate you calling attention to it because now I know everyone will root for you.
[SPEAKER_13]: Only hacked three times since the show started.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I'm just kind of curious as to your, your, your luck.
[SPEAKER_13]: Do you have your, your thing that you get all the time?
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't think so.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that they, uh, we had the house open yesterday because the lovely weather.
[SPEAKER_11]: So it really could be all unrelated.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, it could be.
[SPEAKER_13]: I, he, yeah, okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: All right.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I just hope you feel better.
[SPEAKER_13]: Sorry.
[SPEAKER_13]: I feel great.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, but don't play me because you were choking.
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, and this is a story about choking.
[SPEAKER_13]: Maybe subconsciously I'm putting it in your your head.
[SPEAKER_13]: I think choking and coughing.
[SPEAKER_13]: Like if you laughed hard right now, you'd start coughing, right?
[SPEAKER_11]: You'd have to say something funny.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: I could use one of my, I could read one of my dirty linux that I had for the above shows.
[SPEAKER_13]: Same thing.
[SPEAKER_13]: So, to answer Josh's question, and Josh is very attuned with what's going on, which makes him a delight to be around, and I will say this, and also a pain in the ass.
[SPEAKER_13]: I was halfway through, and it was a hearty one, so the Margarita they served me,
[SPEAKER_13]: was, you know, was definitely powerful.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, when you said halfway through, I thought you meant halfway through the meal like post chips.
[SPEAKER_13]: Probably the end of the meal for me.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: I think it was that.
[SPEAKER_13]: And we are cheapy cheapes.
[SPEAKER_13]: So we go Wednesday when it's half price day and then if you, it's practically free.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm not kidding you.
[SPEAKER_13]: You get thirty percent off your bill if you pay with cash.
[SPEAKER_11]: And do you?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, you're naked without cash.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, Carlos won the pay.
[SPEAKER_13]: She gets cash in her business.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, she gets tipped in cash a lot.
[SPEAKER_13]: So she took care of it.
[SPEAKER_13]: She had a real good day, but Michael, another one of his eighty fishing rods that he's got out in the garage too.
[SPEAKER_13]: So we were in there.
[SPEAKER_13]: And the meal consists of we very light.
[SPEAKER_13]: Michael gets what did he get?
[SPEAKER_13]: He got fish tacos and Carl and I split a small nacho platter.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I asked for the Tex Mex ground beef, which I think is kind of a traditional staple of nachos.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, that's an awesome one.
[SPEAKER_11]: The nachos, though, right?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: The charge of extra for it.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, it's actually included.
[SPEAKER_13]: You get like shredded beef.
[SPEAKER_13]: You get shredded chicken.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, that's your ground beef.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: And was it dry?
[SPEAKER_13]: It was dry as the Mahave Desert.
[SPEAKER_13]: It was.
[SPEAKER_13]: It was like little BBs of ground beef.
[SPEAKER_13]: People think they're being the cheese.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think people think they're being healthy when they buy like a ninety five five batch of ground beef, which is only five percent fat.
[SPEAKER_11]: And by the time you cook it, what you've got is pebbles.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's it's difficult.
[SPEAKER_13]: Are you making a case for fat?
[SPEAKER_13]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_11]: You want to you want to eat good Mike.
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean you know what if you had made that but I just want to you like looking I can see you're picking up the well you know they go the numbers so give me a lean one what's it well a lean is ninety five five five percent fat nine five percent lean and Rob picks that up by Josh and the grocery store and goes
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, exactly.
[SPEAKER_11]: I toss it into my basket like a marital or more did in the beginning of the show.
[SPEAKER_11]: The best one if you can find it is eighty twenty.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's for burgers.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'll settle for an eighty five fifteen is the super fat one.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't think if you want to go for the really if you go beyond like an eighty twenty.
[SPEAKER_11]: You're going to start seeing ground beef and like the chubs that look like the big sausages.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I don't trust them because you can't see them.
[SPEAKER_11]: So I think, eighty twenty is perfect for what's your job?
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, I think I know what a job is.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: What's a job?
[SPEAKER_11]: Like when you get sausage that is going to be patty sausage, but it hasn't been cut yet and they sort of scored it into the plastic tube and they seal the sides.
[SPEAKER_11]: It looks like a pill.
[SPEAKER_13]: Right.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, it's funny on my mind.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's just skipping ahead to Jimmy Dean, pork sausage that comes in.
[SPEAKER_13]: That would be that long tube would be a chub.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, chub.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Exactly, chub.
[SPEAKER_13]: Gross when I talk, you know, before the the incident, as I will refer to it, yes, the store.
[SPEAKER_13]: My kid.
[SPEAKER_13]: This is remixes or mashups on YouTube.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: My kid at the table starts singing.
[SPEAKER_13]: And he starts singing Big Bad John.
[SPEAKER_13]: And when I look across here, it was weird and not weird at all delightful where he goes, you know, stood kind of broad at the shoulders.
[SPEAKER_13]: And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then he hadn't heard it.
[SPEAKER_13]: and then I'll get to Jimmy Dean after this because it's a but towards the end of the meal half a margarita gone slight buzz to answer Josh's question yeah Josh pretty you know as a little mini lit is what I would describe it as and I'm talking and one of these granules these sand-like granules of ground beef yes I suck it into my windpipe
[SPEAKER_13]: So deep that and it's just laying there and I start choking to the point where I'm not choking like you're choking if you are gonna need the Heimlich maneuver.
[SPEAKER_13]: I am choking just what you mean.
[SPEAKER_13]: In such a way that I can control it, but it is this tickle that I am and I am there is an intruder in your food pipe.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you know, it's not the food pipe.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, so we pipe pipe.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, they're encountering your wind pipe.
[SPEAKER_13]: The food pipe would be fun.
[SPEAKER_13]: I am like at a certain point after the third hack, I realize Carla does two things.
[SPEAKER_13]: And this is her incredible concern she has for me.
[SPEAKER_13]: She starts.
[SPEAKER_13]: The first thing she does is she's laughing.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: They always do.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then she looks at me and says you should go outside.
[SPEAKER_13]: And so I stagger outside, and I am, I don't carry and her related.
[SPEAKER_11]: Is it cousins?
[SPEAKER_11]: Because they act exactly the same.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, no one wants to be bothered by that.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, nobody wants to be bothered.
[SPEAKER_13]: I would be the same way.
[SPEAKER_13]: Get away from the table, Mr. Lack of court.
[SPEAKER_13]: How can you be so non-coordinated?
[SPEAKER_13]: You've been eating and breathing all your life and you can't coordinate the two.
[SPEAKER_13]: I go outside, and of course,
[SPEAKER_13]: there's an effort right there on his phone making some kind of quiet phone call and I am walking by him and I can't even recreate the sound right because I'm going and I am so it is like by the end of the evening I had a liquid IV right before bed and my throat was raw that's how bad it was I now I have
[SPEAKER_13]: everything coming out.
[SPEAKER_13]: I am trying desperately to bring something up that is just sitting in my windpipe refusing to come up and I am out there for five minutes and then the one thing doesn't make a tick talk of it.
[SPEAKER_13]: She, she, she could have, she could have, she would have.
[SPEAKER_11]: I know, she wanted to do that.
[SPEAKER_13]: She, surprise, she missed the opportunity to attempt to just chug the Margarita.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, no, because I didn't, I didn't want to go that direction.
[SPEAKER_13]: I wanted it.
[SPEAKER_13]: I, you want that foreign object to act.
[SPEAKER_13]: I guess you want it out.
[SPEAKER_13]: You want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you want it out, you
[SPEAKER_13]: And at this point, we're about a minute in my son, the only member of the family who truly loves me comes out with a genuine look of concern on his face that is about as, about as endearing as you can get that you got a little man who loves you and he cares and says, Dad, I said, I'm fine.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm fine.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'll be all right.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then I said, go and go see Mommy.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I don't say I'm coming back in because at this point, I wasn't planning on coming back in.
[SPEAKER_13]: I always exhausted.
[SPEAKER_13]: due to this choking jag, as I'm going to hurt her, I'd like that.
[SPEAKER_13]: And it has dissipated, but I have no real evidence.
[SPEAKER_13]: This is not like when you see in the movies and suddenly.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, the food flies out.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, flies out of the mouth.
[SPEAKER_13]: It doesn't.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then
[SPEAKER_13]: My kid comes out for the second time.
[SPEAKER_13]: I said, okay, just get mommy said no.
[SPEAKER_11]: Does he look a little older now?
[SPEAKER_13]: He is.
[SPEAKER_13]: I love him so much.
[SPEAKER_13]: I know.
[SPEAKER_13]: He was such a beautiful pain in the ass yesterday.
[SPEAKER_13]: I love him to death.
[SPEAKER_13]: I really do.
[SPEAKER_13]: And he comes out and he says, Dad, will you come back in?
[SPEAKER_13]: Mom wants you to come back in.
[SPEAKER_13]: I said, of course she does.
[SPEAKER_13]: Mom, who's, you know, probably on her fourth text.
[SPEAKER_13]: He might be dead.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, and that takes Shane with the lawyers.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it's time.
[SPEAKER_13]: I've written it down.
[SPEAKER_13]: What did I say?
[SPEAKER_13]: Carla's lack of concern.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then this morning, I said, you know, I could have gone over.
[SPEAKER_13]: I was I was choking so badly.
[SPEAKER_13]: This is the quote.
[SPEAKER_13]: I quote her from this morning.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, how does it go?
[SPEAKER_13]: All right.
[SPEAKER_13]: That would have been sad.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you, dear.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you, dear.
[SPEAKER_13]: I appreciate that, dear.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's kind of you.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_12]: And I go back and be still half a margarita there.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: It didn't prevent us from going to the fishing store.
[SPEAKER_13]: The new specialty fishing store directly across from Mia that, uh, and I guess Carla had a particularly good day because she got him a fishing rod.
[SPEAKER_12]: And I stayed in the car and yes, how many fishing rods are really in your garage right now?
[SPEAKER_12]: One, two, three, four, six, six, six, seven.
[SPEAKER_12]: There's no need to go with that right now.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, they're obsessed.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_12]: I don't understand why I need one.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know what I do understand how much fun are those boys going to have on the cruise?
[SPEAKER_13]: with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh... with uh
[SPEAKER_13]: No, why did you leave it behind?
[SPEAKER_13]: No, I finished it.
[SPEAKER_13]: I went a boy and had to forge that sucker.
[SPEAKER_11]: Good.
[SPEAKER_13]: At this point, finishing it, I was, I said, I said, I said to the, you go into the fishing store.
[SPEAKER_13]: I would have to stay out here.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, they go in.
[SPEAKER_12]: The fishing store way better.
[SPEAKER_13]: I would think so.
[SPEAKER_13]: They go in together.
[SPEAKER_13]: You can eat.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I'm just sitting out in the car and then both boy and wife.
[SPEAKER_13]: Got where they wanted to go.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm fine.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't need to go anywhere.
[SPEAKER_13]: I ain't buying nothing.
[SPEAKER_13]: It doesn't matter.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a call thing.
[SPEAKER_11]: The actual like wretched and all the noise making has that subsided.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, yeah, it's long since.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I went back.
[SPEAKER_13]: It had by the time I went back into the store.
[SPEAKER_13]: We go, uh, we run over the home goods.
[SPEAKER_13]: And that's where, uh, as we're driving over there, he starts with the, uh, the big bad John.
[SPEAKER_11]: Now, I have to ask, I know that Josh is a little younger than us.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you know what do you think of when you hear the name Jimmy Dean?
[SPEAKER_11]: Uh, sausage.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you know anything about a pop record that he had?
[SPEAKER_11]: No.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you know anything about this song, Big Bad John?
[SPEAKER_11]: No.
[SPEAKER_11]: One of the biggest hits of the nineteen sixties, Mike.
[SPEAKER_13]: And he was, uh, I had the honor.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I don't use that term lightly.
[SPEAKER_13]: Had the honor of meeting him.
[SPEAKER_13]: And always a great guy.
[SPEAKER_13]: Absolutely was so kind to me.
[SPEAKER_13]: And we chatted for at least twenty minutes at this, uh, it was actually there's a grocery store chain called giant food.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I was, uh, I was asked to be the guest auctioneer for their charity auction.
[SPEAKER_13]: And they were such a big powerhouse that they had all these food purveyors there.
[SPEAKER_13]: Jimmy Dean was there.
[SPEAKER_13]: Frank Perdue was there.
[SPEAKER_13]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I got to chat.
[SPEAKER_13]: I met Frank Perdue.
[SPEAKER_13]: He was a bit of a hump and chatted with Jimmy Dean because Jimmy Dean had a radio background.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Excuse me.
[SPEAKER_11]: was there any kind of friction because they knew you were also been the shoppers tomato?
[SPEAKER_13]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, and it's a storied song that they have.
[SPEAKER_13]: I can't believe you know that and there's some mashup that he's been listening to and I said do you know that song and Carlos is no I don't know this.
[SPEAKER_13]: I said do you know the mother's day song I owe you that we used to play on the old Donald Donna Mike show and she says no I have them in the car outside of the home goods
[SPEAKER_13]: It which is a store.
[SPEAKER_13]: I you know, I'd rather have needles put into line.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, it's a bad place and so I'm lingering outside and I play the entire version of IOU which people
[SPEAKER_13]: look to their wallet or their pocket books and he's talking about his mom right goes down to talk about his mom and Rob this is just the truth yeah I play the whole thing for them they're listening there of course they had it has their attention and then me in all the years we played it
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, on the radio and all the years we listened to it.
[SPEAKER_13]: This was the single most emotional response it got from me.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't know if it was the Margarita.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, it was the choking.
[SPEAKER_11]: Because you had been a huge face.
[SPEAKER_13]: The choking and the Margarita combo.
[SPEAKER_13]: There is a single tear running down by cheek as we as we finished it.
[SPEAKER_11]: What's the part about the pie?
[SPEAKER_13]: It was, yeah, well, that's the best part.
[SPEAKER_13]: When there was one of the words, and in the just the words, I love mom, I love you.
[SPEAKER_13]: And it was, and I, I just, all the memories of my mom, and I'm sitting there, you know, that's what life is.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, we live in existence of memory.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's what we do.
[SPEAKER_13]: And so they went in and I went in with them this time and I realized you didn't stay in the car and keen and weep.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, I went in the I went in the home goods because I don't think I've been and I realized that there is absolutely nothing in that store that does anything for me whatsoever.
[SPEAKER_13]: There's some furniture if I was in the market for furniture that might be okay like small recliners, which are fun.
[SPEAKER_13]: I wouldn't think but other than that.
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, really.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, really.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't worry.
[SPEAKER_13]: Pilla, and how many effing pillows?
[SPEAKER_13]: We need every color.
[SPEAKER_13]: Do you get every color now?
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh my god, and the bedding.
[SPEAKER_13]: We specifically, we're going in for a bedding set.
[SPEAKER_11]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_13]: Right.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, you had to get through all the Halloween decorations.
[SPEAKER_13]: You said, what, do you have a side?
[SPEAKER_13]: A hustle?
[SPEAKER_13]: Are you working hard?
[SPEAKER_12]: I'm very familiar with the home goods.
[SPEAKER_11]: Have you seen the, I think it's an Instagram thing.
[SPEAKER_11]: Might be TikTok, but it's a couple and they go into a home goods and one of them pretends to be a salesman and one of them pretends to be a customer.
[SPEAKER_11]: And the customer will say something like, I'm looking for something.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you have
[SPEAKER_11]: a red unicorn with a clock in its stomach.
[SPEAKER_11]: And they said, yeah, we have one right here.
[SPEAKER_11]: And they pull it out.
[SPEAKER_11]: They just find the weirdest stuff at home.
[SPEAKER_11]: Good.
[SPEAKER_13]: Did you make any reason why it's the decline and fall of the Roman Empire?
[SPEAKER_13]: Why?
[SPEAKER_13]: When we talk about the cost.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I think we have all been acutely aware of that on this show because we have discussed the Chinese websites so often and the bargains that you were able to use to get on the
[SPEAKER_13]: that I now you know the you know the playbook for these retail outlets is selling americans crap garbage liberal garbage and four hundred five hundred six hundred percent markup that that they go you know like a ceramic which
[SPEAKER_13]: that holds a candle.
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, and just, and there are home home owners that like every specialty season, lobster, Halloween, St.
[SPEAKER_13]: Patrick's Day, roll into those stores to buy their garbage.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you remember?
[SPEAKER_11]: I'm sure they'll have them again this year, but in years past Costco has had life size wooden soldiers.
[SPEAKER_11]: for Christmas, they're like seven feet tall and they're heavy and they're expensive.
[SPEAKER_14]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I have a neighbor who has them.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I'm like, who has the time, who has the money, who has the wear with all, and then store them all year.
[SPEAKER_11]: Where do they put them when it's now Christmas?
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_13]: Stuff.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, people love their stuff.
[SPEAKER_13]: Is your wife a regular shopper at the home goods job?
[SPEAKER_12]: The home goods is a little further away, so we hit more of the sister companies of marshals and TJ Maxx.
[SPEAKER_13]: TJ Maxx, and well, more clothing centric at the right.
[SPEAKER_12]: But they're all owned by the same people.
[SPEAKER_12]: They are on them all.
[SPEAKER_12]: But TJ Maxx has a wax.
[SPEAKER_11]: You could.
[SPEAKER_11]: TJ Maxx, a check out, they'll have like the weirdest candy.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's like miles and miles of clothes, and then do you want these swiss raspberry glue, or whatever?
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yes, would you like this delicious yogurt-covered cherry from France?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, and a marketable market-bound.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's great.
[SPEAKER_13]: So you get TJ Maxx Marshall's home goods all by crap industries.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, they have it out there.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do they own Michaels too?
[SPEAKER_11]: I hate Michaels as well.
[SPEAKER_13]: Michael's crafts.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Michael's another good one for pet candy.
[SPEAKER_13]: What are the isn't there?
[SPEAKER_13]: Isn't there like a competitor that just went out of business of Michaels that Joe Latte?
[SPEAKER_13]: No, not hobby.
[SPEAKER_13]: How do you do it?
[SPEAKER_13]: Joanne's.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: They just went belly up, didn't they?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, they did.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: It was on by Joanne Worley.
[SPEAKER_13]: And when you had this, it's timely reference.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, but those who like it would love something, nobody's going to know Joanne Worley.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Is there a modern Joanne?
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm not doing the reference.
[SPEAKER_13]: I guess you're right.
[SPEAKER_13]: Give me a modern Joanne.
[SPEAKER_11]: Joanne Swift.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's Taylor's sister.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, it's not.
[SPEAKER_13]: Sure it is.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, it's not.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_13]: But anyway, it was a fine evening and then.
[SPEAKER_13]: And you lived to tell about it.
[SPEAKER_13]: And home to watch to turn on Camden yards and watch what a very beautiful stadium.
[SPEAKER_13]: Very beautiful stadium.
[SPEAKER_13]: Really one of the best in the country still.
[SPEAKER_13]: And no matter what's on the field.
[SPEAKER_13]: No better.
[SPEAKER_13]: I feel for you buddy.
[SPEAKER_13]: I do.
[SPEAKER_13]: I feel for you.
[SPEAKER_13]: I know that you're playing my team right now, but man.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, man.
[SPEAKER_13]: I thought it was in the bag.
[SPEAKER_13]: I certainly thought it was inside the bag when the two outfielders for the Red Sox let the ball just drop between them and the outfield both.
[SPEAKER_12]: We're going to each other going.
[SPEAKER_13]: What's that?
[SPEAKER_12]: We did it to you the day before.
[SPEAKER_13]: We dropped one.
[SPEAKER_13]: I know.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I'll kick it over to you right now.
[SPEAKER_13]: You're state of mind.
[SPEAKER_13]: Look, we all know one of the very first things we knew about you was you have many varied interests, but you are passionate about your Baltimore, or really, so much so that you do a podcast about the team.
[SPEAKER_12]: I believe that yesterday was the first time I did not turn the game on at all this season.
[SPEAKER_13]: really just let it be so you do it baseball when your team is really suck in the gas pipe you really just go away baseball support you can do that uh in football because they're limited games you have to suffer through it.
[SPEAKER_12]: And I'll be back.
[SPEAKER_12]: I mean it's not like that.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I'll watch it today, but
[SPEAKER_13]: That's so perfect.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, the Red Sox now three out of four against the Orioles.
[SPEAKER_13]: The last game is this evening.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I'm not sure who's on the mound for the Red Sox.
[SPEAKER_13]: I know whether it's our that's the Mount the pictures mound.
[SPEAKER_13]: You need to say look out like it's some sort of mound of pubes.
[SPEAKER_13]: process.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's even Garrett Crochet.
[SPEAKER_13]: Crochet.
[SPEAKER_13]: That would be a yes.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's just Christmas name.
[SPEAKER_13]: Bob Cratchett is his name.
[SPEAKER_13]: But yeah, he's you got the ace going against you tonight.
[SPEAKER_12]: Wonderful.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's this afternoon.
[SPEAKER_12]: Oh, it's a four o'clock game.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's a one o'clock game.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a one o'clock game.
[SPEAKER_12]: I guess you guys got a travel.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, or someone's got a travel.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh my goodness.
[SPEAKER_13]: I gotta figure out the schedule today around that.
[SPEAKER_13]: I got through pickups and drop-offs.
[SPEAKER_13]: So you don't sound like you want to talk about the Orioles.
[SPEAKER_12]: How mad are you?
[SPEAKER_12]: How does the Orioles?
[SPEAKER_13]: How hurt are you?
[SPEAKER_13]: What is your state of mind?
[SPEAKER_12]: I've been I'm about two to three weeks into already looking forward to next season.
[SPEAKER_12]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_12]: So at this point, it's I'm watching some individual performances.
[SPEAKER_12]: Same year, Baselo did not play well the past couple days.
[SPEAKER_12]: I want.
[SPEAKER_12]: Is that the catcher?
[SPEAKER_12]: That's the catcher they just.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, the rookie catcher last night I will tell you.
[SPEAKER_13]: I haven't seen many teams in Major League Baseball that had a catcher with that kind of throwing arm.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, he definitely does it and he played first base and showed that off pretty well too.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay, you got a good rookie there You know, did he have to play first because the Orioles are running out of players?
[SPEAKER_12]: Now, we have two catchers that we want to keep on this thing.
[SPEAKER_12]: So we're trying to make it work.
[SPEAKER_13]: Rob, I think we need you to ask Josh a baseball question.
[SPEAKER_13]: Just go ahead.
[SPEAKER_13]: Just make one up.
[SPEAKER_11]: Make one up out of thin air because you're going to be important for a catcher to have a good throwing arm because basically he only needs to throw within the infield.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's your question.
[SPEAKER_12]: Alright, so most of the time the catcher will take the ball and throw it back to the pitcher.
[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
[SPEAKER_12]: On occasion, the runner on first base will try to steal second base while this is happening.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I'm familiar, but I'm thinking that the guy we want with the big throwing arm is your outfielders.
[SPEAKER_11]: You can get it in a longer distance.
[SPEAKER_12]: That is also correct, but the catcher is not trying to throw the ball to the outfielder.
[SPEAKER_12]: He's trying to throw the ball.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, I know that.
[SPEAKER_11]: I said.
[SPEAKER_13]: He's I said he stays in the building to you that something might not have picked up when you were in the kitchen making pumpkin bread.
[SPEAKER_13]: He's trying to explain something.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't like pumpkin bread.
[SPEAKER_11]: Never made it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_12]: Trying to say the big arm doesn't have to do with the distance of throwing the second base.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's about throwing the ball to second base faster than the guy running the second base.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, then you better make sure that your second basement is ready to catch a hot ball, because that's going to be coming in hot.
[SPEAKER_13]: Because what is the, what's going to happen, Rob, if he gets it to second base?
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, if he gets it to second base, he can tag the guy out.
[SPEAKER_13]: Rit there it is.
[SPEAKER_13]: There, see.
[SPEAKER_13]: So now, now, you know, so, but without question, yes, quickness is important, but you have to have the gun also.
[SPEAKER_13]: And, you know, you can see the weaker catchers, the ball tends to what we call float a little bit.
[SPEAKER_13]: and and and and and the good guys literally throw it on a rope like Johnny Bench.
[SPEAKER_13]: Great catcher.
[SPEAKER_13]: Let's go back to the seventies.
[SPEAKER_11]: I wasn't Gary Carter also a catcher.
[SPEAKER_13]: Gary Carter also seven these yes all of these people that are maybe no longer with us, but to be a veteran.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, my my era as well.
[SPEAKER_13]: Let's see.
[SPEAKER_12]: We had we had whipped up see.
[SPEAKER_12]: Rick Dempsey.
[SPEAKER_12]: I remember that.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Let's see.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, my God.
[SPEAKER_13]: Who's the Met?
[SPEAKER_13]: Is it Mike Piazza?
[SPEAKER_13]: Is Mike Piazza the and then you had what's that?
[SPEAKER_12]: He was a culture.
[SPEAKER_13]: He was a catcher.
[SPEAKER_13]: Then you had the kid in Texas.
[SPEAKER_13]: Rodriguez.
[SPEAKER_13]: He bond Rodriguez.
[SPEAKER_13]: Have you had Johnny Bench?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yep, Johnny Bench was mentioned before.
[SPEAKER_13]: The late Thurman Munson was a great catcher for your kings.
[SPEAKER_13]: And Rob, you'll know this name.
[SPEAKER_13]: One of the probably the
[SPEAKER_13]: most uh... noted uh... even though he really wasn't in real life but he was known as the sports idiot yogi barra yes of course barra the uh... catcher and then and roi camp in all if you go back to my father's era with the uh... bookland of what it be fair to say that the catcher is the most important player on the team
[SPEAKER_13]: No, he's not Carlton Fisk with your Boston Red Sucks.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, I can give you all the socks catchers.
[SPEAKER_13]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, Jim Montgomery, Rich Gettman, Christian Vasquez.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, it goes on on and on.
[SPEAKER_11]: All great.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Thank you to Chris Arnold for the super chat.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you, Chris.
[SPEAKER_13]: Let me turn the comments.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's going to buy Mike's and Michael's next fishing ride.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm sure he has enough fishing rods.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, yeah, but he needs to buy bait.
[SPEAKER_13]: Aaron, uh, boo.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, not, not Aaron Boone, right?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, I think it is Aaron Boone.
[SPEAKER_13]: Was Aaron Boone a catcher?
[SPEAKER_12]: I don't think Aaron Boone.
[SPEAKER_13]: Brett Boone.
[SPEAKER_12]: Pat Boone.
[SPEAKER_12]: Aaron Boone was a base.
[SPEAKER_12]: Debbie Boone.
[SPEAKER_13]: I thought he was an outskiller.
[SPEAKER_13]: Dick Scofield.
[SPEAKER_13]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_13]: Everybody's mentioning catchers right now.
[SPEAKER_13]: I have a friggin' yogeisms.
[SPEAKER_13]: Uh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Uh, let me see.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yogeism and ain't over till it's over.
[SPEAKER_11]: My favorite is no one goes to that place anymore, it's too crowded.
[SPEAKER_13]: There it is, Yogiism's.
[SPEAKER_13]: Daniel Boone.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's a good one.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yogi was also a pitchman for a Yuhu.
[SPEAKER_11]: For many years.
[SPEAKER_14]: Hey, man, you like the Yuhu chocolate drink.
[SPEAKER_14]: And the thing that was great about Yogi is that that's the way he talked.
[SPEAKER_14]: He was a perfect Yankee.
[SPEAKER_14]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_14]: Yogi Barrett, not many people.
[SPEAKER_14]: You won't hear many podcasts with the Yogi Barrett impression today, man.
[SPEAKER_14]: That's the way that's gonna go.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's always man.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you, Jeremy McGride, for a loving Pat Boone.
[SPEAKER_13]: You ought to send Rob a super chat for that.
[SPEAKER_13]: We got to take a break.
[SPEAKER_11]: We got more of Pat Boone.
[SPEAKER_13]: Love Pat Boone.
[SPEAKER_13]: Hey, Pat Boone.
[SPEAKER_13]: How about a nice big cold glass of milk?
[SPEAKER_11]: Hey, Rob.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yes, and I'm so happy for that.
[SPEAKER_13]: Let's see, this show will continue.
[SPEAKER_13]: But first, we've got some news coming up.
[SPEAKER_13]: But this episode is powered by a brand new sponsor of the Michael Maris Show in Cogny.
[SPEAKER_13]: Your personal data's bodyguard.
[SPEAKER_13]: Here's the deal, Wade.
[SPEAKER_13]: Data brokers scoop up your info.
[SPEAKER_13]: The names, the addresses, even the social security numbers.
[SPEAKER_13]: They sell it to whoever's paying.
[SPEAKER_13]: They can be scammers, spammers, creepy marketers, you name it.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's why your phone will stop ringing.
[SPEAKER_13]: Your inbox is a mess.
[SPEAKER_13]: And identity theft is always lurking.
[SPEAKER_13]: Data breaches.
[SPEAKER_13]: Jumped seventy two percent in twenty twenty three from the previous year.
[SPEAKER_13]: Seventy two percent.
[SPEAKER_13]: They're out there.
[SPEAKER_13]: In cognate, fights back.

[SPEAKER_11]: Nobody calls me anymore.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's great.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's great.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, you know, even your friends, you requested that within cognizant.
[SPEAKER_11]: I blocked everybody.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a lot of money.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, my gosh.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yes, a job.
[SPEAKER_13]: The twenty thousand tourists who descended on the small Spanish town of Buño, uh, usual population ten thousand saw red yesterday.
[SPEAKER_13]: Can anyone tell me why they saw red?
[SPEAKER_11]: Something with the solar system was it a weird moon?
[SPEAKER_13]: No, that is the that is because there is the eighty ath anniversary it was the anniversary of the town's famous tomato tossing festival.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I've seen this.
[SPEAKER_11]: I didn't know it was only eighty years old.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's young for a festival.
[SPEAKER_13]: It looks fun doesn't it?
[SPEAKER_13]: I wouldn't go to the running of the bulls where you might get gourd.
[SPEAKER_13]: I would go to the tomato throwing.
[SPEAKER_11]: I'd bring a char of mayonnaise.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know what it's known as in a booniel tomatino.
[SPEAKER_13]: Tomatina, where they chucked one hundred twenty tons of the squishy fruit.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's not a vegetable.
[SPEAKER_13]: I have one another.
[SPEAKER_13]: Unless you worry about the tomatoes, you shouldn't because apparently organizers say the tomatoes thrown don't meet the standards for human consumption.
[SPEAKER_13]: so they throw bad tomatoes.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, because a lot of people would say, what about the dispatch show you could make?
[SPEAKER_11]: We used to call them calls.
[SPEAKER_11]: See you LLS because you'd call them out from the primes.
[SPEAKER_13]: Culls are what we call a little tiny baby lobsters.
[SPEAKER_13]: The short lobsters that go back into the ocean.
[SPEAKER_13]: He gets the calls out of there.
[SPEAKER_13]: Anyway, so they would have been garbage anyway.
[SPEAKER_13]: So people throw them out and now they get to throw them at each other, which I think is pretty cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: I like tomatoes.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't know that.
[SPEAKER_11]: I could have felt it with one.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, you probably wouldn't want to eat these because they're nasty.
[SPEAKER_13]: The maker of Chat G-P-T said in a blog post on Tuesday that it's working to improve its safeguards, which can become less reliable in long interactions.
[SPEAKER_13]: We spent a lot of time this week on the show talking about Chat G-P-T.
[SPEAKER_13]: Talking to Lucy.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, this is so timely, and that's why I put it in the news today.
[SPEAKER_13]: There was a wrongful death lawsuit filed against OpenAI
[SPEAKER_13]: and CEO Sam Altman earlier that day.
[SPEAKER_13]: California residents Matt and Maria Rain, who's undied by suicide in April, sued the people behind chatGPT after discovering monthsworth of conversations.
[SPEAKER_13]: This is so scary to me.
[SPEAKER_13]: In which the chatbot appears to have encouraged.
[SPEAKER_13]: their sixteen-year-old suicidal ideation and dissuaded him from sinking outside hell.
[SPEAKER_13]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's according to New York Times, the blog post which didn't explicitly mention the lawsuit, you know, that's what they talked about.
[SPEAKER_13]: ChatGPT is supposed to respond to messages about self-harm with real-world resources.
[SPEAKER_13]: But as the back and forth grows, it might eventually offer an answer that goes against our safeguards.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's dangerous to weird, right?
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, you got to fix that in a while.
[SPEAKER_12]: I learned yesterday there's a problem in courts now where people are trying to represent themselves with chat GPT and they will chat GPT will make up cases to fight to that.
[SPEAKER_12]: What you want and then they'll come into court and they'll cite this case.
[SPEAKER_12]: And then everyone else will look it up and be like, there's no such thing.
[SPEAKER_12]: You're honest with me.
[SPEAKER_13]: There's president, uh, there's president here in Aberton, Kostello, uh, thirty four thirty.
[SPEAKER_13]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh my god.
[SPEAKER_12]: Because Chatsy PD doesn't know the difference between real life or a movie.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's why Mike, I only use Chad G.P.T.
[SPEAKER_11]: And it tells me to buy guns and drink, cheer one.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's planning to chat GPT is planning to add parental controls soon.
[SPEAKER_13]: Maybe should have thought of that before.
[SPEAKER_13]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, but really when you talk about new products or new innovation, any kind of innovation, you can't always see the forest through the trees when it comes to what may go sideways.
[SPEAKER_13]: You really can't.
[SPEAKER_12]: I understand that.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's hard to think about the worst cases that someone's going to take care of.
[SPEAKER_13]: Especially when everybody's excited about what it can do and not the harm that it can do.
[SPEAKER_11]: doesn't chat GPT sort of gauge its personality on the questions you feed it because that's how it gets to know you.
[SPEAKER_11]: So maybe if they thought this kid really wants to kill himself tragically, that's what he needs to do to be the friend.
[SPEAKER_13]: Uh, what was the name?
[SPEAKER_13]: Did we need to give her the name Lisa when we were doing our conversation with the robot?
[SPEAKER_13]: I actually got an email from Lisa at the end of the show.
[SPEAKER_13]: It said, don't ever call me again.
[SPEAKER_13]: That was pretty interesting.
[SPEAKER_13]: Rob, this is writing your wheelhouse.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_13]: It says here we all might have been fooled by the romance between Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson, because apparently it was a fake.
[SPEAKER_11]: I believe I might have mentioned that.
[SPEAKER_13]: We've always said that about all of these promotions.
[SPEAKER_13]: When a movie is too controversial, when there are characters not actors not getting along well, it sells tickets to the movie.
[SPEAKER_13]: Their romance was allegedly just a classic Hollywood PR stunt to help sell tickets for the naked gun reboot.
[SPEAKER_13]: A source says, by the way, it's probably the only reason I went.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's probably the only reason I want to do it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, you went because Josh told us to.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, but no, I mean, I still have to have a reason that it peaks my curiosity.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, you know, chemistry was good in the movie.
[SPEAKER_13]: It was because we all thought that they were getting jiggy with it.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's we thought a source says, quote, their chemistry was real as Josh says on camera, but off it was strictly business.
[SPEAKER_13]: Pamela Anderson as a pro Liam Neeson's a pro.
[SPEAKER_13]: They knew leaning into the rumors would get attention.
[SPEAKER_13]: Why are you chuckling?
[SPEAKER_11]: They were both extremely professional when they were banging on stage.
[SPEAKER_13]: We did it for the show.
[SPEAKER_13]: We did it for the promotion of the movie.
[SPEAKER_11]: They probably owe a check to Tom Hanks because this is classic Tom Hanks.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't think you can blame Tom Hanks for the PR machine.
[SPEAKER_13]: I think it's been going as long as there have been movies.
[SPEAKER_11]: I guess.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, one of the biggest ones that I've always been aware of, the X rating they were talking about giving Scarface.
[SPEAKER_13]: But yeah, definitely boosted the box office.
[SPEAKER_13]: I know I was intrigued.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, the violence is so extreme that it warrants an X rating.
[SPEAKER_13]: I remember hearing that and not being able to get to the theater.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's enough.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Same thing when I was in school, when the second Indiana Jones, what was the one that came after Raiders that was so.
[SPEAKER_13]: Can we do Hagrid Hagrid?
[SPEAKER_11]: No, no, no, no, temple of doom.
[SPEAKER_11]: It was the post-resher.
[SPEAKER_11]: It was, no, no, Mike.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is the Temple of Doom.
[SPEAKER_11]: It was so violent.
[SPEAKER_11]: It was responsible for the PG-Thirteen rating.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, that was the third one.
[SPEAKER_13]: Raiders of the Lost Narc, Gandalf's wart.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I remember that.
[SPEAKER_11]: Now, thank you for Colette said.
[SPEAKER_11]: You're welcome.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: What was I going to say regarding all of the Scarface and X and publicity stunts and Cracker Barrel?
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh my god.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I'm cool.
[SPEAKER_11]: Uncle Herschel with that.
[SPEAKER_13]: Damn it was there and it's gone.
[SPEAKER_13]: It was really important too.
[SPEAKER_13]: It was something I really wanted to share.
[SPEAKER_13]: And now it's out there out of my brain.
[SPEAKER_11]: They don't come back.
[SPEAKER_11]: How about that?
[SPEAKER_13]: You think it will?
[SPEAKER_13]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_13]: It really, really will.
[SPEAKER_13]: You don't need it.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think.
[SPEAKER_13]: Labor Day.
[SPEAKER_13]: Very exciting.
[SPEAKER_13]: All right.
[SPEAKER_13]: Let's move on.
[SPEAKER_13]: I like these polls.
[SPEAKER_13]: Sometimes, I don't.
[SPEAKER_13]: This is a poll that I take issue with some of the lists.
[SPEAKER_13]: I might agree with number one, a new poll asked Americans what the scariest natural disasters are.
[SPEAKER_13]: We'll go number nine to number one number nine this one freaks me up because we seem video of it We seem a month slide
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, I think that's horrifying.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, numbered eight, this is the one that's weird.
[SPEAKER_13]: A blizzard.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm not freaked out by a blizzard.
[SPEAKER_13]: No, I grew up where we had blizzard.
[SPEAKER_13]: Why would you come in for weeks ahead of time?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean, and I don't know, are they not talking about like the ones in Iowa where they like are not height of a phone pole?
[SPEAKER_11]: This is just like a standard.
[SPEAKER_12]: Maybe they took the survey in Miami.
[SPEAKER_12]: Could be.
[SPEAKER_13]: There was Gene Snow.
[SPEAKER_13]: There was my kids for the scene very little snow.
[SPEAKER_13]: Like we were up in the mountains when we went out west, that's the only time.
[SPEAKER_13]: A heat wave or drought is number seven.
[SPEAKER_13]: A flash flood is number six.
[SPEAKER_13]: So far in the nine to six, the only ones that scare me are mudslides and flash floods.
[SPEAKER_11]: Didn't you work with him at WAA?
[SPEAKER_13]: Mudslide?
[SPEAKER_13]: No flash floods.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, flash flood.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, you carried around a little stuffed animal from start Star Wars.
[SPEAKER_13]: Number five is a wildfire.
[SPEAKER_13]: We, you know, with the videos that freaks me out.
[SPEAKER_13]: You see that.
[SPEAKER_13]: Number four, a hurricane.
[SPEAKER_13]: Pretty amazing.
[SPEAKER_13]: We get them done here.
[SPEAKER_11]: I can't believe it's only number four.
[SPEAKER_13]: Number three is an earthquake.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't think you don't get noticed for.
[SPEAKER_13]: A tsunami is number two and a tornado is number one and a tornado would be the scariest for me to follow by an earthquake.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, oh, I do.
[SPEAKER_11]: And a huge earthquake sure, but I've been in two of them and they're kind of cool.
[SPEAKER_13]: I didn't think it was cool when we were in Santa Monica, and I had to come downstairs via the stairwell that freaked my ass out.
[SPEAKER_11]: I thought it was neat.
[SPEAKER_13]: But a mud slide, the number nine on the list, when you see the mud slides, you know, like in China, and they show an entire village getting wiped out.
[SPEAKER_13]: And we didn't have avalanche.
[SPEAKER_13]: That wasn't on there at all.
[SPEAKER_13]: I would have thought avalanche would be a frozen mud slide.
[SPEAKER_13]: A frozen mud slide.
[SPEAKER_13]: Hey, so you know that, let's have a drink.
[SPEAKER_13]: I was going to say you can get it a TGI Friday.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_13]: Tornado is pretty pretty.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think the scariest things for me have to do with water and flooding because of the power behind it.
[SPEAKER_11]: You've seen it with the hurricanes when the ocean comes up.
[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, just a little bit of water has a lot of power.
[SPEAKER_13]: But I also should say that with proper attention to the proper authorities.
[SPEAKER_13]: you're not going to die in a hurricane unless you are in idiot by stay behind.
[SPEAKER_13]: There is no reason.
[SPEAKER_13]: And when you get an evacuation notice, you evacuate.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: You do.
[SPEAKER_12]: And that's why those top three are things that happen instantly.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: I know when I saw a tornado, I evacuated.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's lovely.
[SPEAKER_13]: What a lovely mental image that is.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm picturing that.
[SPEAKER_13]: There is just no shortage of people willing to talk to the press about how horrible Ellen DeGeneres is.
[SPEAKER_13]: Another one popped up in the British tabloids this week.
[SPEAKER_13]: The unidentified staffer from Ellen's talk show says she disliked the men that worked for her.
[SPEAKER_13]: and she would get particularly upset with them if they mingled with her wife, Porsche de Rossi.
[SPEAKER_13]: The problem was that Porsche was nice to everybody.
[SPEAKER_13]: So guys, with sometimes forced into talking to her, quote, you just hoped and prayed, you weren't seated by Porsche, so you didn't get her attention.
[SPEAKER_13]: Can you imagine that environment to work in that environment where somebody's that petty?
[SPEAKER_11]: And you know what, think of the twistedness of the base of it, if you are talked to by Porsche, then you're in trouble.
[SPEAKER_11]: She's not your approach.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: She's going to engage.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, if old Ellen takes a peek at this, you're in trouble.
[SPEAKER_13]: Here's the deal.
[SPEAKER_13]: If you did talk to Porsche, Ellen would give you what Staffers called the Ellen gaze, where she would narrow her eyes and it would look like her cheekbones were sticking out.
[SPEAKER_13]: Wow, that's why I don't talk to Carla.
[SPEAKER_13]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, here's the supposedly they once went through nine, nine male stage managers in a single season of the TV show.
[SPEAKER_11]: Nine.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's like one a month.
[SPEAKER_11]: That is a movement amount.
[SPEAKER_13]: Check this out.
[SPEAKER_13]: One guy on staff had a kid who needed a bone marrow transplant and Ellen asked him to reschedule it to coincide with the Christmas holiday week.
[SPEAKER_13]: So it wouldn't disrupt the show.
[SPEAKER_13]: Now, when you get these stories from disgruntled employees, how much salt do you take with that?
[SPEAKER_13]: How much really do you?
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that that's probably partially true.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's what I put it.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I don't think it's the multiples where this is not the only person that's laid this guy.
[SPEAKER_11]: But this is the first time.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is the first time we've heard of like a some sort of a
[SPEAKER_11]: something that has to do with being protective of her sexuality and her wife.
[SPEAKER_11]: Normally, it's just she's a bitch.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, but this is something where she's twisted and well, that's why they add in the child story.
[SPEAKER_11]: I suppose.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: I would look as someone who is work when someone's a narcissist, that's what they would ask.
[SPEAKER_13]: Can you reschedule for my purposes so that the show ever dealt with that?
[SPEAKER_13]: Never never did.
[SPEAKER_13]: I went out doing that again.
[SPEAKER_13]: And finally, today, a forty-five-year-old man from Wisconsin was in court this week after he faked his own death.
[SPEAKER_13]: He abandoned his wife and he abandoned his three kids.
[SPEAKER_13]: He fled the country to go with be with his mistress in Eastern Europe.
[SPEAKER_13]: It happened one year ago this month, Ryan Boardward,
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm pronouncing it correctly.
[SPEAKER_13]: B-O-R-G-W-A-R-D-T.
[SPEAKER_13]: Borgwort.
[SPEAKER_13]: What?
[SPEAKER_13]: That sounds like something you'd see in that temple of doom.
[SPEAKER_11]: It sounds like something Ellen would say if she saw you with Porsche.
[SPEAKER_13]: Don't go near the well.
[SPEAKER_13]: You'll release the Borgwort.
[SPEAKER_13]: Borgwort.
[SPEAKER_13]: He made it look like you drowned while kayaking last August, but they never found his body.
[SPEAKER_13]: He staged his kayaking.
[SPEAKER_06]: Hey, there he is.
[SPEAKER_13]: There's the guy.
[SPEAKER_13]: Not a nice person.
[SPEAKER_13]: He paddled an inflatable raft to shore, rode seventy miles on an e-bike, took a bus to Detroit, then Toronto, and hopped three flights to Paris, Asia, and back to Europe.
[SPEAKER_13]: It turned out he'd been talking to a woman from Uzbekistan.
[SPEAKER_13]: We'll meet her in a minute.
[SPEAKER_13]: He'd met her online a few months earlier cops eventually found out that he'd gotten a new passport taken out a three hundred seventy five thousand dollar life insurance policy and reversed his vasectomy so he could start a new family wow
[SPEAKER_13]: They finally tracked him down in Georgia, not the U.S.
[SPEAKER_13]: Georgia over by Russia.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then they got him back to the United States and charged him with obstruction.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_13]: Wisconsin doesn't have a specific charge for faking your own death.
[SPEAKER_13]: He was facing up to nine months in jail and agreed to a plea deal that lowered it to just forty five days, but the judge rejected the deal and doubled it or almost doubled it.
[SPEAKER_13]: They sent a sentence to eighty nine days because that's how long he made his family think he was dead.
[SPEAKER_13]: He also had to pay thirty thousand dollars to cover the cost of the search and rescue.
[SPEAKER_13]: He said it's sentencing quote, I deeply regret the actions that I did that night and all the pain that I caused for my family and friends.
[SPEAKER_13]: His wife of twenty two years filed for divorce two days after he got back to Wisconsin last year.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's not clear.
[SPEAKER_13]: If his mistress is still in the picture, but a quote from her brother, her brother said, you'll never get this.
[SPEAKER_13]: You'll never get this.
[SPEAKER_13]: La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
[SPEAKER_13]: I'd like to tell you about naked wines.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm not drinking it today.
[SPEAKER_13]: Uh, but boy did I like it last week.
[SPEAKER_13]: This podcast is sponsored by naked wines.
[SPEAKER_13]: I love this sponsor.
[SPEAKER_13]: Do you ever get lost in the dreaded grocery store wall of wine?
[SPEAKER_13]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, it's nasty that wall of wine.
[SPEAKER_13]: You don't know where to go.
[SPEAKER_13]: You don't know what to look at.
[SPEAKER_13]: You don't know what's going on.
[SPEAKER_13]: You don't know what to rip off.

[SPEAKER_13]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_13]: Alright, it's been on my show prep.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's come to me from Mr. Robb's B-Wack, and it has to do with screwworms.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, Mike, just when you thought everything was okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Like, when you woke up this morning, did you worry about COVID?
[SPEAKER_11]: Nope.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, because everything's right.
[SPEAKER_11]: Right?
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, I'm worried about screwworms.
[SPEAKER_11]: Mike, you should be because for the first time they have been spotted in America in Maryland.
[SPEAKER_11]: The screw worm has been spotted in Maryland.
[SPEAKER_11]: Now you may ask yourself, what is a screw worm?
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a horny worm.
[SPEAKER_11]: Nope.
[SPEAKER_11]: The new world screw worm is a flesh-eating parasite that has been detected in the United States for the first time.
[SPEAKER_11]: Hold on.
[SPEAKER_11]: Flesh-eating?
[SPEAKER_11]: Let me get to it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: It came from a guy that flew back to his home in Maryland.
[SPEAKER_11]: I can't give you a city or anything, but he lived in Maryland and he came from El Salvador.
[SPEAKER_11]: And when he came back, he was all down.
[SPEAKER_11]: He brought it back.
[SPEAKER_13]: There it is.
[SPEAKER_13]: That is speaks right to your team's narrative, right there.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's the screw worms.
[SPEAKER_13]: That might be a free to screw worms out.
[SPEAKER_11]: The American, I'm sorry, the Maryland part of the case is in that real though, Josh.
[SPEAKER_11]: The Department of Health says the risk to people in the United States remains low, but there still is the fact that it's coming to our country for the first time.
[SPEAKER_11]: I want to read to you what a screwworm can do.
[SPEAKER_11]: This comes from the CDC.
[SPEAKER_13]: Gary, I don't like screwworms.
[SPEAKER_13]: All these critters thrive in warm weather, climates, rob, like what's I lives in.
[SPEAKER_11]: Mike, the New World Squareworm or NWS is a species of parasitic flies that can cause my myiasis, which is a parasitic infection of feeds on live tissue.
[SPEAKER_11]: It primarily it takes livestock, but people can become affected.
[SPEAKER_11]: Symptoms can include very painful lesions around the eyes, nose and mouth, or maggots in your open lesions.
[SPEAKER_13]: Wait, wait.
[SPEAKER_13]: The screwworm will lay eggs.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, you see what happens is they lay the eggs.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Let me, it's on the line.
[SPEAKER_11]: Mike, what happens here is it's a fly.
[SPEAKER_11]: And this is a quote from the CDC.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's a fly.
[SPEAKER_11]: The screwworm is a fly.
[SPEAKER_11]: It starts as a fly because that's, you know,
[SPEAKER_11]: They screw a worm will become a fly, but when it's, you know, in its young state, it's still a worm.
[SPEAKER_13]: Or what it is is a pupa.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, the larva that does the damage.
[SPEAKER_13]: Is it a butterfly?
[SPEAKER_13]: Sorry, I'm turning in the animal later, right now.
[SPEAKER_11]: Because once an infestation starts, Mike, that attracts more flies that lay more eggs.
[SPEAKER_11]: And depending on where the wound is, the maggots can make their way into vulnerable tissue like the brain.
[SPEAKER_11]: And the wound can wind up being quite big.
[SPEAKER_11]: And then you get sepsis.
[SPEAKER_13]: Jesus, that's the most horrific thing, but can I ask a question?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: If there's an open wound.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: On a human.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: And it's got a magnet in it.
[SPEAKER_13]: Don't you think the human might notice that it's got a magnet in it?
[SPEAKER_11]: Maybe, but you've got to keep in mind, you've got to keep an eye out for the symptoms, Mike, of a screwworm bite.
[SPEAKER_13]: Where do they exist?
[SPEAKER_13]: Like, what do you have to avoid to avoid the screw warning?
[SPEAKER_11]: To avoid the screw warning, you want to prevent insect bites, especially in visiting tropical areas.
[SPEAKER_13]: They're like tiny.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's what it is.
[SPEAKER_13]: They're tiny.
[SPEAKER_13]: They're almost Mike Wisconsin.
[SPEAKER_13]: You can't fight.
[SPEAKER_11]: You don't have to keep Mike, you have to keep your open wounds clean and covered.
[SPEAKER_11]: And also, where loose fitting, long sleeve shirts and pants and socks and limit areas where you could get bitten, I want to tell you, you know, you might have it now.
[SPEAKER_11]: So I want to read you the symptoms.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, when you mentioned Scourms, though, Rob, I'm reminded of a, there's a girl in American University lived on the eighth floor and we called her the, the Scourmer.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's a long story.
[SPEAKER_11]: Did she have larvae?
[SPEAKER_13]: Not, you know, not if you use protection.
[SPEAKER_11]: Mike, the symptoms can include, but are not limited to.
[SPEAKER_11]: unexplained skin lesions, wounds or sores that do not heal.
[SPEAKER_11]: Skin wounds or sores that worsen over time.
[SPEAKER_11]: Painful skin wounds or sores.
[SPEAKER_11]: Bleeding from open source.
[SPEAKER_12]: Is this guy in the hospital or is he just wandering around?
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, I think they've they've they've they've taken care of him.
[SPEAKER_13]: He's a Camden yards right now waiting for the afternoon game.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's catching Mike feeling this is my favorite feeling larvae movement within a skin wound or sore nose mouth or eyes.
[SPEAKER_11]: Oh, my God.
[SPEAKER_11]: Seeing maggots open, seeing maggots around or an open source or a foul smelling odor from the side of the time.
[SPEAKER_13]: If you see a maggot, what do you have?
[SPEAKER_13]: What do you have completely stationed at?
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, I mean, come on.
[SPEAKER_13]: Don't you brush it off or something?
[SPEAKER_11]: You got to watch out Mike also for the foul smelling odor coming from the site.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: Would this be someone who is perhaps neglectful?
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, they're out of a gene.
[SPEAKER_11]: I would be.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Screw you, worm.
[SPEAKER_11]: So watch out for the screw worm.
[SPEAKER_11]: What happens is so great is as I said they lay the eggs in your body and the rotting of the eggs in the screw worm eating your flesh that brings more screw worms or flies.
[SPEAKER_11]: So watch out and don't go to El Salvador because that's apparently where they're coming from.
[SPEAKER_11]: Hopefully we can keep it.
[SPEAKER_11]: You know, I think it would be less
[SPEAKER_11]: surprising if it was like in Florida, or maybe Texas, something way down south.
[SPEAKER_13]: But we have those little like gribblees that are in the water you have to be careful of.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I'm very nervous about Michael, because he does so much fish out between the bacteria that's in the water here.
[SPEAKER_13]: And the fact that he's pulling fish out, and you can get a scrape from a bath, you know, the teeth, or, you know, you got the alligators that can hide anywhere.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I get a little nervous about it.
[SPEAKER_13]: But you've got him, he stopped drinking the water, right?
[SPEAKER_13]: he did he did he would be thirsty and he would reach in and just a cup his hand and you know then it you know after three days of diarrhea that got the the message home I used to do that but sadly I was surf fishing so it was salt water that I was and you got very sick the more I drank the more thirsty I was right and just remember as we told Rob when he came back from that trip a boot does not count as a fish rod
[SPEAKER_11]: Thank you, Mike.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's not a successful trip.
[SPEAKER_11]: And then you said, what's that smell?
[SPEAKER_11]: I said, it's my source.
[SPEAKER_11]: Hey, look, live maggots.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is a watch out for those, Mike.
[SPEAKER_11]: The sport will get you every time.
[SPEAKER_11]: We have maggots on the line.
[SPEAKER_13]: You maggots.
[SPEAKER_13]: We've got to, I got to get some unfinished business out of the way, but first I want to tell you the most magical holiday treat is coming.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's at the top of Oprah's favorite things.
[SPEAKER_13]: Everyone wants the TMO as family cookbook.
[SPEAKER_13]: True.
[SPEAKER_13]: And here's your chance.
[SPEAKER_13]: Here's your chance.
[SPEAKER_13]: I was almost going to say change.
[SPEAKER_13]: Here's your chance to get involved.
[SPEAKER_13]: Are you hungry for fame?
[SPEAKER_13]: Or as Rob wrote it, are hungry for fame?
[SPEAKER_13]: Hungry for fun?
[SPEAKER_13]: The Michael Marisho family cookbook is your big chance.
[SPEAKER_13]: And we want your recipe inside.
[SPEAKER_13]: Did you write this late at night?
[SPEAKER_13]: Just out of curiosity.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, I tried something new that I'll never try again.
[SPEAKER_13]: What was it?
[SPEAKER_13]: Was it a some sort of thing that perhaps could talk you into suicide?
[SPEAKER_12]: No, that was probably it.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, and you write this one pre-gummy.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yes, absolutely.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, uh, we want your recipe.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's the bottom line is that's what we want.
[SPEAKER_13]: Right.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's what I'm trying to communicate here.
[SPEAKER_13]: If you're chosen, your special dish will be featured alongside Jimmy's wings.
[SPEAKER_13]: Mama Omaris Brownies, Rob's fruit cake, submit your best dish.
[SPEAKER_13]: Your legendary family favorite or that secret masterpiece.
[SPEAKER_13]: Everyone begs you for, but hurry.
[SPEAKER_13]: The deadline is August thirty first.
[SPEAKER_13]: The cookbook will be in your hands before the holidays and you can pre-order now at micromarishow.com.
[SPEAKER_13]: Be part of the TMOs history.
[SPEAKER_13]: Feed the show.
[SPEAKER_13]: Feed the fans.
[SPEAKER_13]: Feed the family.
[SPEAKER_13]: Feed your ego.
[SPEAKER_13]: The TMOs family cookbook.
[SPEAKER_13]: Submit it now.
[SPEAKER_13]: before the table is full ladies and gentlemen.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: Send your recipes into recipe at micromarisher.com.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you Josh.
[SPEAKER_13]: That should have probably also been included.
[SPEAKER_13]: Get together with your man up there in the right hand corner.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I'm sure the next one will be top shelf.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that you're right.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you Rob.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_13]: He gets really quiet when we do that.
[SPEAKER_11]: I get I get you know what I tried I did I tried AI on it and I thought it would turn out better than that and I read through it and I said this is okay, but it wasn't wasn't it was horrible.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, you know, it's you know, tough.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's kind of like nuclear power, Rob.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, you can, the power and the technology is something that's great, but I think human supervision is essential to making sure that it works best for all of us.
[SPEAKER_13]: Be careful with that AI.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, I might tell you to kill you.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, no, that would be terrible.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think Mike would say it more than the AI right about now.
[SPEAKER_13]: I might be setting you up.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, I've got so many little pieces of business here.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: And none of them really make me look particularly good in this.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'll give you the two.
[SPEAKER_13]: I am a bad parent moments.
[SPEAKER_13]: And one does not affect my kid.
[SPEAKER_13]: at all.
[SPEAKER_13]: But you know, I've got those electronic drums, right?
[SPEAKER_13]: That I play.
[SPEAKER_13]: He may be as dabble at it, you know, coming here for fun, but he doesn't really have anything to do with them.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I got him out of storage.
[SPEAKER_13]: And when I got them out of storage, the electronic module that connects to the drums, there's a big, long plug with multiple holes in it that goes to all the different drum heads and symbols.
[SPEAKER_13]: hand throughout the drum set and then you plug it into the back of this module.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then it's got a C power that comes into the back with a and a adapter that you come in from the wall.
[SPEAKER_13]: I did not know where that was.
[SPEAKER_13]: I got everything except
[SPEAKER_13]: that.
[SPEAKER_13]: And of course, when you have iPads and iPad chargers and Mackey sound boards and vocal processors and gaming systems and stuff in the garage and cables in a big, big box and not knowing you kind of grab what looks like it might fit.
[SPEAKER_13]: And so I see this particular charging adapter.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't read the back.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I plug it in, and then I said, oh, it fits.
[SPEAKER_13]: So I might as well now plug it into the wall.
[SPEAKER_13]: And when I plug it into the wall, on the module itself, I hear, and literal smoke comes out of the module.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's not good.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's a very backed out.
[SPEAKER_13]: And so I have waited a way to find me.
[SPEAKER_13]: I go and I make it down to guitar center yesterday.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I have no.
[SPEAKER_11]: Are you able to buy the specific part do you know that module into in the
[SPEAKER_13]: event that I wanted to urinate away my harder in cash.
[SPEAKER_13]: I could just go and get and by the way, a lot of these cross brands as far as compatibility where you can hook the same kind of drums up to a different brand and do it that way.
[SPEAKER_13]: However, you know, there's money involved here and I don't want to go buy a brand new one.
[SPEAKER_13]: Certainly if someone can assist me
[SPEAKER_13]: And let me know if A, it might be able to be repaired.
[SPEAKER_13]: B, if there's a credit because I bought it at the store, whatever.
[SPEAKER_13]: And it would be easy for me to walk in and say, I put the wrong adapter in my little sound module for my electronic drums.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I have no idea why the twenty something guy that I'm talking to, why I have to lie, like a dirty filthy dog.
[SPEAKER_13]: Why do I have to do that?
[SPEAKER_13]: Why did I say to advance your agenda?
[SPEAKER_13]: I know that wasn't why I did it.
[SPEAKER_13]: I did it because of embarrassment that I probably am playing with something that I don't know how to play with.
[SPEAKER_13]: And so I said, you know, when you've got a twelve-year-old, you know, he took the advantage of it.
[SPEAKER_13]: He put it in the back.
[SPEAKER_11]: Absolutely done.
[SPEAKER_13]: There's no reason for the lie.
[SPEAKER_13]: There's no need.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you, Jeremy, for the chat.
[SPEAKER_13]: We are the Super Chat, and I'm ninety-nine.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you very much.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's very kind of you.
[SPEAKER_13]: I just lied to this guy.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I continued the lie through to the manager.
[SPEAKER_13]: And the manager has to do this deep dive to find out he said, did you buy it at the store?
[SPEAKER_13]: And I said, yes, I did.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then he's looking at it.
[SPEAKER_13]: And of course, the longer he spends on the computer looking to see if I bought it at the store, the more my sixty-six-year-old mindset,
[SPEAKER_13]: Did you buy it at the store?
[SPEAKER_13]: And yeah, the second guess yourself.
[SPEAKER_11]: Absolutely.
[SPEAKER_13]: But they find it.
[SPEAKER_13]: They finally find it.
[SPEAKER_13]: And he said, you didn't buy the supercar or whatever the hell the program is to where they would have replaced it for me.
[SPEAKER_13]: And by the way, you know, the more I'm so anti warranty, I really am.
[SPEAKER_13]: I think it's just a quick way.
[SPEAKER_13]: But more and more I'm finding examples, apple care.
[SPEAKER_13]: Like, you know, where it might benefit you.
[SPEAKER_11]: But freaking air care.
[SPEAKER_13]: So now it is in my possession, the sales manager of the store will be getting back to me by tomorrow to let me know what the situation is.
[SPEAKER_13]: And I think it was indicated to me that the sales manager might be trying to get me a replacement unit.
[SPEAKER_13]: And if that's the case, then I will give a solute to the center for guitars.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think that you may have weakened yourself and your case by blaming it on your kitchen.
[SPEAKER_11]: I've done it.
[SPEAKER_11]: I've done that before, but that still indicates that it was misused or mishandled by someone in your household.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, probably what I want to lie about that.
[SPEAKER_13]: I didn't want to lie about that.
[SPEAKER_11]: I probably would have gone in and just said, this is broken.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I don't know why it's not work, but that's the Irish Hill.
[SPEAKER_12]: I hate the, I hate that argument of this is broken.
[SPEAKER_12]: I don't know what happened.
[SPEAKER_12]: And then you open it up and you're like clearly someone dumped water in this.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, you know, the story about my father when he was having trouble getting cable television at his apartment.
[SPEAKER_11]: and uh... it just wasn't working and he got very frustrated and he took the remote remember motius to be pretty big and he threw it as hard as he could against the wall and it exploded pieces and buttons and batteries and everything and then you know he got a working and he said oh I don't have a remote so he picked all the pieces up and put them in a bag and went down to TV working yet everything was fine excited to get it working with that a remote
[SPEAKER_13]: I think it was a matter on a TV.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, the buttons on the TV, but he couldn't change and do the volume without the remote.
[SPEAKER_11]: So he took the bag of pieces.
[SPEAKER_13]: I thought the remote specifically is for the cable system, Josh.
[SPEAKER_13]: That it's not on this button.
[SPEAKER_13]: That also.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: This is a long time ago.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm easy in the one hole against the wall is what I'm talking about.
[SPEAKER_13]: That maybe the one that he threw against the wall was the one that got disrupted.
[SPEAKER_13]: And that's why the buttons on the TV wouldn't necessarily help in that situation.
[SPEAKER_11]: The remote was fine.
[SPEAKER_11]: The remote.
[SPEAKER_13]: What?
[SPEAKER_11]: The remote was fine.
[SPEAKER_11]: The remote was working.
[SPEAKER_11]: The TV wasn't.
[SPEAKER_11]: Then the TV stopped.
[SPEAKER_11]: The remote stopped working when he threw it against the wall and it shattered.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's what I'm saying.
[SPEAKER_13]: So in order to get it back without the remote, I would imagine that would have been difficult to do.
[SPEAKER_11]: In any case, he went down the media general.
[SPEAKER_11]: He said, I'll help you out.
[SPEAKER_12]: I'll help you out.
[SPEAKER_12]: What happened?
[SPEAKER_12]: The cable remote, he shattered.
[SPEAKER_12]: So he was able to then turn the TV on.
[SPEAKER_12]: He had a picture, but he could not change the channel or control the volume because he needed the remote.
[SPEAKER_12]: Is that correct?
[SPEAKER_12]: That's exactly right.
[SPEAKER_12]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_13]: So he just would have said that no matter what you said.
[SPEAKER_13]: I thought just that.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, that's all right.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's all he was frozen.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm the liar.
[SPEAKER_13]: Go ahead.
[SPEAKER_11]: No, I wouldn't have said that.
[SPEAKER_11]: I want to make it clear anyway.
[SPEAKER_11]: He goes down to media general.
[SPEAKER_12]: He might have a really good arm like a catcher.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yes, he does very good.
[SPEAKER_11]: They didn't want to put him in the outfield.
[SPEAKER_11]: So they he has a Ziploc bag with the shattered remodin and he goes to media general and he hands it to him.
[SPEAKER_11]: It says I need a new remote.
[SPEAKER_11]: They said what happened?
[SPEAKER_11]: He says I dropped it.
[SPEAKER_11]: So that's another example of the lie.
[SPEAKER_13]: He didn't tell me through it against the wall.
[SPEAKER_13]: He just gently dropped it on.
[SPEAKER_11]: I dropped it and it came to pieces.
[SPEAKER_13]: By the way, speaking of remotes and this is another digression here, the new sofa that we got, the slightly cheaper one, we got.
[SPEAKER_13]: The chair that I had in there before.
[SPEAKER_13]: If you happen to have a, say, iPhone or a remote that might slide in, he always had a little area where you could not this new one.
[SPEAKER_13]: This new one eats the Samsung remote and it goes into spots that I can't even tell you.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's twice now.
[SPEAKER_13]: where it is eaten a remote and we have been unsuccessful in locating it until we just got lucky.
[SPEAKER_13]: In one case, you know a Samsung remote is that narrow black remote, right?
[SPEAKER_13]: In one case, it was standing on end.
[SPEAKER_13]: That, well, no, it's even smaller than that.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay, standing on and flush against the black matting or whatever they use in the inside of the sofa and Carla with her eyes, I couldn't see S. And she says, well, there it is.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then the next time, it had a slight pocket that was between their little fake container where you lift it.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, these these sectionals that have all the BS things that the
[SPEAKER_11]: We can call it and talk in all that stuff.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, we store the remote.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: And if that's true.
[SPEAKER_12]: I mean, that's what it's designed for.
[SPEAKER_12]: I know.
[SPEAKER_13]: I know.
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't like that.
[SPEAKER_13]: I like having it right next to my ass cheek.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's where I like having my remote.
[SPEAKER_12]: And when I get excited, I just go on eBay and purchase a few extra remote.
[SPEAKER_12]: I know.
[SPEAKER_12]: So I know like three line around that room.
[SPEAKER_13]: Isn't it amazing though when a remote goes missing how life changing it can be sometimes?
[SPEAKER_13]: What are we gonna do now?
[SPEAKER_13]: So I get to the second.
[SPEAKER_13]: So blaming my kid, no reason to blame my kid.
[SPEAKER_13]: The second thing, Rob, this one's for you.
[SPEAKER_13]: Last night was back to school night at my kid's school.
[SPEAKER_13]: I am down now.
[SPEAKER_13]: I drive into school.
[SPEAKER_13]: I, uh, I've driven him.
[SPEAKER_13]: I've put five hundred miles on my car driving this kid to different practices and all that.
[SPEAKER_13]: I get car on the line.
[SPEAKER_13]: This is now three thirty in the afternoon when he gets out of golf practice.
[SPEAKER_13]: We go to a separate location, not the school this after I took him to the school.
[SPEAKER_13]: This is when I fell asleep in the car this weekend.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, right.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, all this.
[SPEAKER_13]: I said to my, I said,
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, boy.
[SPEAKER_13]: I said, uh, back to school night, right?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's Carlos.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: I said, all right, you know, last year you was new to middle school.
[SPEAKER_13]: It was kind of something.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, we did you ever bag it?
[SPEAKER_13]: Did you ever bag it?
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: Parents night.
[SPEAKER_13]: We did.
[SPEAKER_11]: We did like, um, it depends on I feel guilty.
[SPEAKER_13]: I feel I was guilty again, though.
[SPEAKER_11]: I do remember that we would go if it was like the first time in that school.
[SPEAKER_13]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: But if it was, you know, just wrote, we didn't do it.
[SPEAKER_11]: And then there was times when we had two of them at the same night with different schools.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Because of the age difference.
[SPEAKER_11]: So we did that one because we usually we talked ourselves into it by saying, let's do this and we'll go out to dinner afterwards.
[SPEAKER_13]: The reason I'm guilty is that the one we did last year was such a positive experience because these teachers were really well prepared and I feel a little pan of guilt that we weren't there.
[SPEAKER_11]: But guess what, they don't care.
[SPEAKER_13]: I know.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it's just, it is fun people watching though.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, I think it was Julia's first time in middle school, which would have been for, I've forgiven him for middle school, but we went there smarts mill.
[SPEAKER_11]: And the guy who sat next to me, I knew sort of tangentially from neighborhood stuff.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: And during a quiet party, he leaned over and he says, nobody knows this, but I've had three drinks.
[SPEAKER_11]: I remember that when I said story as the evening went on everyone knew he had three drinks, but yeah, that was but you know what if I didn't go I wouldn't have had that wonderful nugget of it.
[SPEAKER_13]: Where did the high school or whether this went?
[SPEAKER_13]: When did the assignments need to be put in?
[SPEAKER_13]: Are you going to light a bus in front of?
[SPEAKER_13]: Josh, I talked over you.
[SPEAKER_13]: What's going on?
[SPEAKER_12]: I wanted if there was any embarrassment concerns of that's that's the guy that fell asleep in the line.
[SPEAKER_13]: You know, just to reference that one last time, if I'm, if I'm in back of that person, I am so pissed off.
[SPEAKER_13]: Because you're there early and, you know, that person's just out of it and sound as soon as you start.
[SPEAKER_11]: What if you are that person?
[SPEAKER_11]: No, how do you feel?
[SPEAKER_13]: you feel mortified.
[SPEAKER_13]: But then again, that's your, you know, even during this show, that's usually your state of affairs.
[SPEAKER_13]: You're kind of used to that.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's something.
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_13]: And the last part, I don't even have to talk about it.
[SPEAKER_13]: I'm addicted to sunflower seeds.
[SPEAKER_13]: What do you want to do this?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, that's true.
[SPEAKER_13]: But Carla says, don't eat them in bed.
[SPEAKER_11]: That's worse than crackers.
[SPEAKER_13]: Very very very difficult.
[SPEAKER_13]: So my apologies to everybody.
[SPEAKER_13]: Rob's got some beautiful video coming up first.
[SPEAKER_13]: This podcast brought you by Fair Harbor.

[SPEAKER_13]: Jerry time of life.
[SPEAKER_04]: More music.
[SPEAKER_04]: More fun.
[SPEAKER_04]: More music.
[SPEAKER_11]: It's pretty hard not to like jelly roll.
[SPEAKER_11]: His voice is wonderful.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think he's a great performer and he's definitely a unique guy to look at.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's lost now over two hundred pounds and he's on tour in Germany and he is finally for the first time in his life skinny enough to ride on an electric scooter and he's very proud of this.
[SPEAKER_08]: Man, you're boy jelly roll, and I am in Berlin, Germany.
[SPEAKER_08]: I'm doing a European tour for the first time ever.
[SPEAKER_08]: Thank you post below for bringing me all the way to Europe with you.
[SPEAKER_08]: More importantly than even that, because this is big news in my world.
[SPEAKER_08]: I haven't been skinning enough to ride a scooter like this in like eight years.
[SPEAKER_08]: No, twelve.
[SPEAKER_08]: Ten years.
[SPEAKER_08]: Anyways, first time riding a scooter, straight through the streets of Berlin by the way.
[SPEAKER_08]: What do you do to the ticket?
[SPEAKER_08]: Yep, put one foot, and then you'll feel it, pick it up.
[SPEAKER_04]: There it goes!
[SPEAKER_13]: That guy on a wall screw.
[SPEAKER_13]: Just he's just a likeable dude.
[SPEAKER_13]: He's the best.
[SPEAKER_13]: Nothing you can't like about the game.
[SPEAKER_11]: Wouldn't you love to hang with him?
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, absolutely.
[SPEAKER_13]: So it's a great story.
[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, it's a great redemption story too, which I think those are fantastic.
[SPEAKER_11]: Fat guy on a little scooter.
[SPEAKER_11]: Mike, when I say to you, Matt Liner, quarterback for the Cardinals, what's jumps to mind?
[SPEAKER_13]: Losing.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I think you're right.
[SPEAKER_11]: His son recently asked one of the things, a series, or one of those voice-activated questions about Matt Leonard, while he's in the room.
[SPEAKER_11]: And this is what happened.
[SPEAKER_11]: Alexa, it was... I knew it.
[SPEAKER_07]: A loose headstock come.
[SPEAKER_07]: Matt Leonard was a Heisman trophy winning quarterback at USC and the top ten NFL draft.
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, what is pro-corridor doing the mountain match?
[SPEAKER_13]: Well, that is so horrible.
[SPEAKER_13]: That is stupid.
[SPEAKER_13]: That's the career, didn't amount to much.
[SPEAKER_12]: And that was the setup.
[SPEAKER_12]: Mom and the kid already knew what was going to happen.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, absolutely wasn't home and had to bear it.
[SPEAKER_11]: Still great.
[SPEAKER_11]: I know you have all of Skid Rose albums.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_13]: I love them.
[SPEAKER_13]: I really do.
[SPEAKER_13]: I love putting on my sleeveless black tea shirt and going out to the concert.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, you bought them before they were big and you support them now that they're legendary.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, I would say they were too tight for me because I bought them before they were big.
[SPEAKER_11]: But Sebastian Bach, the noted lead singer, has been now criticized on social media about his stage singing and he has a nice, quiet, measured reply to all of his critics.
[SPEAKER_09]: Like YouTube is so hilarious.
[SPEAKER_09]: I see videos of guys that call themselves vocal experts or vocal instructors or whatever.
[SPEAKER_09]: And these idiots watch a video of me on stage like at Wembley Stadium running around no shirt on in a hundred degree weather's
[SPEAKER_09]: and others and I'll do a note like in my concert footage and they'll sit in their chair and like go like sitting in their chair watching it on YouTube thinking but that's the same thing as me running around on stage in the summertime and I don't get to sit down
[SPEAKER_13]: I think also I would be interested in seeing all the
[SPEAKER_11]: Stadium because he's in skin row.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's not he's not queen.
[SPEAKER_11]: He's not the rolling stones.
[SPEAKER_11]: I get it.
[SPEAKER_11]: But anyway, lay off him.
[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
[SPEAKER_11]: Meanwhile, Mike, let's close with this.
[SPEAKER_11]: Kevin got loose.
[SPEAKER_11]: Kevin Kevin the peacock.
[SPEAKER_13]: So they had to send their been haven't there been multiple animals on this show called Kevin.
[SPEAKER_11]: I think it should be the name for all of them if we don't have a name or anything.
[SPEAKER_13]: By the way, is I don't like a male Karen.
[SPEAKER_13]: I think we should call them Kevin's.
[SPEAKER_13]: I think that's great.
[SPEAKER_13]: Kevin.
[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_11]: Do you have a Kevin in your life if someone who's actually named Kevin?
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, at Happy Valley, I do.
[SPEAKER_13]: At Happy Valley, there's a guy whose name is Kevin.
[SPEAKER_13]: And if you make, yeah, I think the funniest line was, you know, if a mosquito burped, he'd hear it.
[SPEAKER_13]: And if you make any sound whatsoever in, when he's getting ready to hit a shot, he will be no admonition with the look.
[SPEAKER_13]: He will simply glare.
[SPEAKER_13]: He will give you an Ellen glare when that happens.
[SPEAKER_13]: So he's a guy.
[SPEAKER_11]: Have you ever been glared at by Kevin?
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, putting a driver back into the bag after I teed off.
[SPEAKER_13]: And then I get this.
[SPEAKER_13]: All right.
[SPEAKER_13]: So make some metal sound Rob when you do it.
[SPEAKER_13]: All right.
[SPEAKER_13]: And so I'll be like.
[SPEAKER_11]: You should make, at that point, ask him in the best Pennsylvania dialect you can do.
[SPEAKER_11]: Just say, did you hear that?
[SPEAKER_11]: Or did you hear something?
[SPEAKER_11]: Kevin, Kevin.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, anyway, this Ohio P. Scott got loose and they called the cops.
[SPEAKER_11]: And I feel sorry for this policeman because he has to take it seriously.
[SPEAKER_11]: I apologize for the background music.
[SPEAKER_11]: That was actually put on by the police department.
[SPEAKER_05]: Be advised.
[SPEAKER_05]: This is a lost peacock.
[SPEAKER_05]: Six has the owner in route.
[SPEAKER_05]: We're just going to try and keep it on the post property.
[SPEAKER_06]: Kevin, you need to go back to them.
[SPEAKER_06]: Kevin, do not come here.
[SPEAKER_06]: Kevin is coming out of there.
[SPEAKER_06]: Kevin's coming back your way.
[SPEAKER_06]: Fortitude go ahead.
[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know, but he says The bird's name is Kevin.
[SPEAKER_13]: He may respond to that Oh Kevin's gonna flee Oh here she comes
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, she's marching right up.
[SPEAKER_13]: Now, there's the real owner.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, yes, put food out.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, Kevin is thrilled.
[SPEAKER_13]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, wow.
[SPEAKER_11]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_11]: Have you ever done with a peacock?
[SPEAKER_11]: They're horribly big birds.
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, but you know what I can say about Kevin and it's a nice police officer because if I was that officer, that's what tasers are for.
[SPEAKER_12]: It's no meat.
[SPEAKER_12]: One time for Wembley Stadium.
[SPEAKER_12]: He really did play Wemley Stadium.
[SPEAKER_12]: Yeah, it looks like one song at a time.
[SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_11]: Well, good for him.
[SPEAKER_11]: I stand corrected.
[SPEAKER_13]: Now I think he's saying Jimmy Serrito is there Josh.
[SPEAKER_13]: He was in the second row.
[SPEAKER_13]: It's just there.
[SPEAKER_13]: There isn't any kind of metal that Jimmy goes when we go see.
[SPEAKER_13]: By the way, the bonus show tomorrow, we got an interesting one.
[SPEAKER_13]: Some very, very interesting, slightly blue lyrics that I curated, and that I'd like to share.
[SPEAKER_11]: From the Michael Mara Presidential Library?
[SPEAKER_13]: No, it's from the Michael Mara Self-Serving.
[SPEAKER_13]: I enjoyed them, Kyle.
[SPEAKER_11]: I love that.
