Should've listened to this lady. Who

told you Florida was gonna win it all? This

and watches shit. I told you to bet on
9:06
Boston for basketball, winner.
9:10

Day weekend? It'd be hot

out there, but who cares? Go to the pool. Or
9:41
like me, just stay inside the whole time and gamble. Some
9:45
guy, by the way, some casino, somewhere in
9:47
Asia. I gotta look it up more.
9:50
He won $4 million and he
9:52
instantly had a heart attack and died in
9:54
the casino. Well, I could see it

Ohio. That was
10:11
my second road week ever, Columbus, Ohio.
10:14
And I was in Philly the first week, and I can
10:16
say that some of the servers were a little aggressive and
10:18
mean, and I may have cried the entire way from Philly.
10:21
Bill Ingvold kept telling me, it'll
10:23
be fine. And I'm like, he's
10:26
like, there's just a few servers here who
10:29
are having a lot of problems in their life. I'm like,
10:31
I'm not even in the way. I am out of the way.
10:35
But the club turned out to be great there in Philly. It was
10:37
just when you don't know what you're doing, it's a little frightening. Second

Hall. October 11th,
11:06
Troy, New York. October
11:08
12th, Burlington, Vermont. So
11:10
there you go. I love it when Lewis,
11:15
my little friend Lewis Black, who's older
11:17
than me, I won't say about how
11:19
many years. He sends me
11:21
people that have sold out Madison Square Garden
11:24
and he just writes, who is this? Today,
11:29
there's some youngster Sabrina who?
11:34
Sabrina Carpenter? Is that right? Yeah.
11:37
I guess she opened for Tay Tay. It's
11:40
blowing up on Twitter because the kids can't get
11:42
in and they've been in line. One of them
11:44
said they were, and she took a screenshot of
11:46
it. She's 41,550th in line. 41,000
11:50
people ahead of her. I
11:52
mean, I don't know. Ticketmaster
11:55
runs my stuff fine, but I'm also
11:58
not Sabrina. I mean, but. Lou will
12:00
just send this person who's selling out and
12:02
he's like, who is this? And then I
12:04
have to go, okay, Lou, well, here's the
12:06
thing, or this is a TikToker, or yeah.
12:11
I did not know though, to be fair, who is
12:13
Sabrina. No, I did not know.
12:15
She's one of
12:18
the children. She's one of the children and
12:20
the children want to go, but where are the children getting the money?
12:23
That's $300 for nosebleeds. That's
12:25
not counting fees. Sabrina Carpenter is 25. She's
12:28
25 years old. Oh my God. How
12:31
do you sustain that for the rest of
12:33
your life? She's dating
12:35
a 31 year old. She's dating
12:37
a 31 year old. Oh, avant-garde.
12:39
How avant-garde. He's Irish. A
12:42
real Irish person? He's in
12:44
the banshees of Inneshirn. He's in the
12:47
banshees of Inneshirn. Inneshirn being what? One
12:49
of the three Aran Islands. Okay.
12:53
So shout out to the West Virginia Club. It
12:55
was super fun. It was a casino gig. And
12:57
then there's a racetrack that's attached and
12:59
I realized I've never been here in summer. I've only
13:01
been there in the winter and I got
13:03
to go watch the first race. And
13:05
then I had to go to work, but then the
13:08
guy who's running it down there,
13:10
this guy Mark, he waited for me afterwards.
13:12
He goes, did you really want to be a jockey? I said,
13:14
yeah, I did. I said, I used to
13:16
go to Fairmont track with my dad when I was a
13:18
kid. I said, and there was one jockey. If you bet
13:20
on him, he always won. He goes, Dave Gall. He knew
13:22
it. I was like, oh my
13:24
God. Yes. And then my friends, I kept
13:27
going when I was 18, 19, 22, I went my whole life
13:29
to that racetrack
13:31
for something to do. Just go. And
13:33
he's like, well, if you come next time, I'll take
13:36
you to meet all the horses because it was over
13:38
by the time I was done. I heard the, you
13:40
know, the call, the post call. It
13:42
was crazy. I can't believe there's a casino and
13:44
a racetrack. It's just overwhelming.
13:46
And then they're like, I'm like, where do
13:48
we park backstage? We'll follow the stables, take
13:51
a ride at the next stables. It's
13:54
a fantastic little place, Hollywood Casino.
13:56
It's great. Then
13:59
I accidentally. I walked down to
14:01
the mall and I walked into
14:03
a liver walk, which I thought
14:06
was ironic and really suitable. I
14:08
wanted to buy t-shirts for all my siblings for Christmas, but
14:10
you couldn't buy them. You had to sign up to get
14:13
in the walk. I'm like, well, I can't come in. I
14:15
gotta go. Mama's gotta go
14:17
do stuff. But
14:19
it was, yeah, I'm a savior
14:21
liver. I posted a little video, but then I don't want
14:23
people to get mad. I know people get
14:25
liver problems that aren't drinkers. I'm just saying for the
14:27
drinkers that do have the problems and I know quite
14:29
a few of them, I
14:32
would have walked for all of us. I texted
14:34
all my cousins. I'm like walking for everybody, walking
14:37
for the Madigan's, the McCues, the
14:39
Debsters. We're the Lord. Doing
14:42
the work of the Lord. Accidentally walked probably
14:45
half mile with them. Yeah, I'm
14:47
just like, wow, it's crowded for eight in
14:49
the morning. I was trying to
14:51
beat the heat. Yeah, why don't we stop and have
14:53
a drink? Oh, maybe not in this walk. Nope,
14:56
nope, nope, nope, nope. We're
14:58
not gonna do that. All
15:00
right, the queen king news. Well, Tay
15:02
Tay, where's Tay Tay Skinny? Tay Tay
15:04
was in England, Buckingham Palace,
15:07
the guards played Shake It Up. Still
15:10
like the bagpipes better, but it was
15:12
cute. It was a good attempt. Her
15:15
show was a big smashing hit. Harry
15:17
was invited. I
15:20
mean, Prince William was invited Harry and
15:22
Meghan, nay nay. If you take Billy
15:24
Bob, William, you can't take, I'm
15:27
sure that'll drive her crazy. Billy Bob. And
15:31
the children, Charlotte and whatever the
15:33
other two are named. Tom
15:35
Cruise was there. He had
15:37
to go friendship with. And Tay Tay brought
15:40
Travis out on stage. Now I said last
15:42
week, I don't like the boyfriends getting on
15:44
stage. It's different. He just carried around. He
15:46
doesn't want to be a singer. He doesn't
15:48
want to share her limelight. And she got
15:50
all excited. So, you know. Are you drafting
15:53
him this year? Am I drafting
15:55
Travis? Probably not. No.
15:58
No. He's getting old. He's
16:00
amazing. You
16:03
take them I'll have little Jack take
16:05
them he likes the Chiefs he likes everybody involved No,
16:08
I'd rather have one of the 49er guys. I can't
16:10
think I'd rather have George kiddo. Yes
16:13
Anyway, that's two inside football talk for you people
16:15
who aren't following Travis
16:19
look very good in a tuxedo There
16:22
was a video of Jason Kelsey the brother and
16:24
he walked the whole length of the stadium with
16:26
a beer in his mouth Like his teeth were
16:28
holding on to the cup because he had friendship
16:30
bracelets and I'm like that's a drinker Yes, if
16:32
you can do that, they should have races like
16:34
that That would be super fun But you
16:36
have to jog and whoever has the most beer left in their
16:38
cup at the head is a winner And
16:40
you can't drink it you have to just hug So
16:45
to take a had a very successful
16:47
Stevie's fine jelly is good Snoop. I'm
16:49
not sure what he's up to Tanya
16:52
Pictures state fairs, whatever country people
16:54
do share super quiet and that's
16:56
never good and Dolly
16:58
prop I'm sure she hasn't taken a week off.
17:00
We just haven't heard what new things she's going
17:02
to be selling or whatever All
17:06
right, I have the cast iron skillet I'll show it to
17:08

17:11

a congratulations by the way shout out to
17:30
my friend Lewis black inside out to broke
17:32
all the records and Lewis
17:35
gets little bonuses. So keep going to
17:37
see it he gets Lewis
17:41
a king I
17:45
have a lot I talked to him every day. I can
17:47
tell you exactly what he's doing this afternoon. Mm-hmm Where's
17:51
he eating that's the only thing he cares about but
17:54
it's the only thing he's cared about his whole life He's
17:56
a food guy. It's just amazing like a
17:59
bad lunch can wreck his day, but
18:01
a good roast beef sandwich can turn the whole ship around.
18:04
No matter how shitty things are, like at work, or if
18:06
there's problems, and I go, look what I found at the
18:08
deli loom. Oh, wow,
18:10
this whole thing changes. I'm
18:12
like, wow, I've never cared that
18:14
much about food. Another thing too,
18:16
I did a podcast with Pete
18:18
Holmes, and I love, love, love
18:20
Pete Holmes, and there's a
18:22
story on there about me almost killing my mom, 100%
18:25
true. She's still mad about
18:27
that. Like, it is not my fault. That
18:29
the golf course had bald tires on the cart, and it
18:31
had just rained, and you said go down the hill. So
18:33
I fucking did it. And boom, she
18:35
flew into the forest. Anyway, Pete's one of
18:38
the smartest people, and I don't mean that like in a,
18:40
are you smart, smart way, he
18:42
can just talk about anything, and
18:44
he's funny, and he's fun. It's
18:46
probably my favorite, well, I
18:48
had a lot of fun ones this year so far that I've
18:51
done, I'm gonna do a bunch more in the fall. Everybody's kind
18:53
of out on vacation now, but Pete, there's
18:55
links to it on all my stuff. If you wanna go
18:57
listen to that, if you got an hour drive or something.
19:00
That's termites. Well, termites, yeah,
19:03
what podcast do you like? Who do you like?
19:05
Who do you listen to? I'll see if I
19:07
can go do them. They usually
19:09
say yes. These are
19:11
just a few funny things. We've done King and Queen,
19:13
I got nothing else on anybody. Nope,
19:15
I liked all his hat. So last
19:17
week I talked about the power washer, me
19:21
using the wrong nozzle. This person, it's
19:23
a dude, Randy, wrote, I
19:26
hired a power washer who used the wrong nozzle
19:28
and power washed the face off one of my
19:30
lions in the drive. How close were
19:32
you to the lion, sir? You
19:39
got the wrong thing and you're, oh my God,
19:41
that is just hilarious. You probably drove home that
19:43
night and the headlights hit it and went fuck,
19:45
it doesn't have a face no more. This,
19:49
I think this was a lady, I don't
19:52
know, DJS. This person, I'm
19:54
here to get tips on how to get to the
19:56
middle and enjoy your life. Spent an afternoon with a
19:58
cousin's husband who was always talking to me. about how
20:00
many deals he'd make and for the amount
20:02
of money he was making and how good he
20:04
is at hustling. He took calls every five minutes.
20:06
He thinks he's impressing us. I think I'm sitting
20:08
here enjoying doing nothing and nobody's bothering me with
20:10
calls. I can tell you who I think is
20:12
more successful. That's right. Attend
20:15
my TED Talk, how to get to the middle
20:17
and enjoy it. That's right. I'm going
20:19
to come up with a better title so there's good merch, but that's
20:22
the working title right now. And
20:25
then one more thing because this is crazy. But
20:28
trying to have a baby for years, went to your show
20:30
in Reno last September for my birthday
20:32
I might add. And what do you
20:34
know, flash forward, I have a beautiful three week
20:36
old daughter. I'm sick as
20:39
fuck. So what can I say? Seemed like perfect
20:42
timing. Thank you for the opportunity to create my
20:44
daughter. Perhaps you're some sort
20:46
of fertility idol. No, probably not. But
20:49
at any rate, the show is amazing. I'm
20:52
enjoying watching her stand up while super sick
20:54
tonight. Be well, Emily. And
20:56
because I would have attached a photo
20:58
of said cute baby,
21:00
but I don't want you to think I'm some
21:02
Nigerian prince. Nobody opens
21:05
sketchy attachments. No, I would not
21:07
have. I did open the popes and
21:09
that was real. That was real. By
21:11
the way, the person who set
21:13
all that up for me, I did track
21:16
down to say thank you
21:18
and that was all
21:21
real. Like, yeah, it's just amazing.
21:24
People can be really good and social media isn't
21:26
all bad. That's what I'm saying. I've met a
21:29
ton of people from Twitter, Instagram.
21:31
I pull them out of the crowd sometimes and
21:33
just go come on back if they look normal.
21:36
And I love it because each wherever I
21:38
pick them from, they represent the
21:40
genre without knowing it. Like
21:43
the Facebook people, usually older talk
21:45
a lot. And that's okay.
21:47
That's okay. If I don't have to go
21:49
to where I can talk a lot. Instagram
21:51
kids, they just want a picture and they leave. They
21:53
don't even care about talking. Twitter people, so I'm very
21:56
smart and short to say and they're out. Yep,
21:58
that's it. They don't even want the picture. I'm
22:00
like, I thought you guys, I mean, I'm not gonna force
22:02
a picture of me in your phone, but
22:05
okay. It's just funny how they, and I
22:07
don't know about the TikTok people, I don't know that I've,
22:10
they're not like a- 10 seconds, and then
22:12
they scroll. Yeah, they scroll. They look at
22:14
me for 10 seconds, I go, bored, bored,
22:17
bored. Okay,
22:21
so update
22:23
the children. The
22:26
children. Oh no. Oh
22:29
no. I wish I
22:31
could have a meeting with these people. Like
22:33
there's very few times in life where I go, no, I'll
22:35
be in charge of that meeting. Because normally I don't want
22:37
to be in charge of anything. Like I just, I'll attend
22:40
the meeting, but I don't want to, I'm not going to
22:42
talk at the meeting. I don't want
22:44
to, the climate protestor children, they,
22:47
two incidents. This one, again,
22:50
security, get a load of this
22:52
one. They target UK,
22:56
United Kingdom airfield hosting Taylor
22:58
Swift's private jet. Two
23:00
environmental activists spray painted several
23:02
jets. I mean, Christ,
23:04
it costs, you know, eight
23:06
grand to get your car repainted. I mean, I don't know,
23:09
is that right? I only have my car repainted one and
23:11
insurance had to pay for it because of accidents. I don't
23:13
know. But imagine having to repaint a
23:15
jet. I mean, I can't even, they,
23:18
it was parked at Stan said airport
23:20
in Sussex, England, in Essex,
23:22
sorry, Essex, England on Thursday, just hours
23:25
after her jet arrived. They
23:27
don't know that hers got hit. Do
23:29
you want to know how much? How much
23:31
to repaint a jet? I'm
23:34
going to say, I'm going to say $125,000. It's
23:38
70 to 180 thousand. See
23:41
look at me, 70 to 180 thousand. Standard.
23:44
Standard. Takes 48 weeks. 48 weeks.
23:48
Yeah. Well, this airfield, so
23:51
these were the just stop oil people. Okay.
23:54
I don't say what they said. I'm not, because I
23:56
don't agree with the tactics. I agree with some of
23:58
their causes. I agree with that. They're right. I
24:01
mean, look, the weather is, I think it's too
24:03
late. Now, remember, I flunk
24:05
science. Whenever you hear things like
24:07
that, just go, oh, right, that lady flunk science. Because
24:15
it doesn't mean it's true. I'm
24:17
just a lady with a beer at
24:20
the bar saying what I think. I
24:22
don't know if it's, there's dams collapsing
24:24
in Minnesota, the flooding in Iowa, the
24:27
heat that's, I know everybody goes, oh,
24:29
it's been hot before. Not like in
24:31
June like this. This is like, at least for
24:33
the Midwest, this should be, or even the South,
24:35
this should be more into July, August. 90,
24:38
yeah. Yeah, 90, not 106. Like
24:41
what the actual, I don't
24:44
know, maybe it's not too late. But anyway, so
24:46
I kind of, you know, I understand, but okay,
24:50
this is my thing. I'm not going to
24:52
get into it. But if we're going to stop oil, what are we going to use?
24:56
Electric? And there's issues with
24:58
that. And
25:00
then even if we all do it, is China going to do it? No.
25:04
Is India going to do it? No. So
25:06
they got the most people. I
25:08
don't know. It's their tactics. I, I
25:12
try to do my part, especially when my
25:14
friend Amy comes and redoes my entire house
25:16
against my will. And I
25:19
have to remind her, Amy, I live somewhere else,
25:21
250 nights a year on the
25:23
road in hotels. If you're pissed at me,
25:25
if you don't like my setup, you should actually go
25:28
to a Marriott because that's where I stay with my
25:30
gay grandparents. Those two men that are
25:32
by the elevator and I love
25:34
a Marriott. I love a courtyard. I love a
25:36
JW. I love the entire chain. You
25:40
know, talk to them about plastic. Or
25:42
what, what are their dryers set on? I
25:46
support a lot of aluminum. Look at all the
25:48
beer I drink out of aluminum cans. That's probably
25:50
bad too. But I recycle it, which
25:53
is hard here. Because in
25:55
Nashville where I'm at, out in the woods, kind
25:57
of. You
26:00
know, the lady's like, I can bring you second
26:02
trash can, but it's all gonna go same place.
26:05
I was like, oh, you don't have recycling? Not
26:07
with us, honey, you'd have to take it to
26:09
a special facility. I'm like, okay. I
26:12
mean, you know, there's only so much you
26:14
can do. But anyway, yeah, I try, whatever.
26:17
Amy teaches me little things that I'll go,
26:21
okay, I'll do that and I won't do that. I'm
26:23
not washing dishes in dirty dishwater. Especially
26:25
when I have a goddamn dishwasher, Amy. How
26:30
many times do you think I use that in a month? Twice?
26:34
I don't know how to use a dishwasher, not
26:36
really. When it beeps and shit,
26:38
I just let it go. I don't know. Anyway,
26:42
they took fire extinguishers filled with
26:44
orange paint. They
26:47
cut through a fence with fence cutters
26:49
and got onto the private airfield. Now,
26:53
in my life, I've flown a private
26:55
jet maybe three times, Ron,
26:58
one with Ron, no, twice
27:00
with Ron, maybe five times. Leno
27:03
gave me a ride home one time from Vegas, which
27:05
was very nice. And
27:07
then I have friends
27:09
that have one. Well, they rent one,
27:11
but whatever. Now, every time I've gone
27:13
there, I assume this
27:15
is super security. I'm guessing because
27:18
these people, they're
27:20
rich and famous and whatever. You
27:22
could have told me at a private airport,
27:25
these kids, well,
27:27
they're very young, one guy's not. One
27:29
guy looks like a Philly pop fort.
27:31
Maybe that's their dad. Cut
27:34
through with wire cutters and went out onto
27:36
a tarmac. A
27:39
tarmac with fire extinguishers
27:41
filled with paint. Again,
27:43
where is security? I mean, I'm not
27:45
blaming the people that did that. That's
27:48
just vandalism, but they
27:51
don't know if hers was hit.
27:53
And then, yeah, they cut into the fence.
27:56
I mean, they're mad.
28:00
We're living in two worlds and it's true one where
28:02
billionaires live in luxury and able to fly private jazz
28:04
Well the other well unlivable conditions
28:07
are being imposed on countless millions billionaires
28:09
are not untouchable climate breakdown affects everything
28:11
what? Yeah, yeah, but
28:14
this isn't how to do it. This is why
28:16
we need to have a meeting and it's
28:18
called using humor to get your way Ted
28:22
talk number two Stop
28:24
being vandals And then
28:26
so you guys know I like golf. I
28:28
had the golf tournament on Sunday
28:31
and on the 18th hole and Scotty
28:33
Sheffler was gonna win again, but he had a
28:35
putt left These children.
28:38
It's a mob of climate protesters storm the
28:40
18th green at the Travelers
28:42
tournament this best weekend. So everybody's standing there. Scotty's
28:45
got one putt to win it Then we're all
28:47
done where I wrapped up and these kids I
28:49
watched it live Because I was like
28:51
whoa what and then they started spray painting the green
28:54
for everybody to I mean, I'm sure that's fixable You
28:57
wash it off but this
29:00
group um was No
29:04
golf on a dead planet I Forget
29:07
what group there. Oh there. Oh There
29:10
just stop oil as well. Yep. Oh
29:13
my gosh but you
29:15
know and and one of the
29:17
golfers got tackled by accident That
29:20
I will say the police security reacted super
29:22
fast, but how did these kids get
29:24
in here with goddamn spray can't I can't I mean I?
29:27
Don't know I know what the if you I've only
29:30
been to the practice rounds at the Masters You can
29:32
get tickets on stuff up for like 400 bucks for
29:34
Monday If you ever want to go you can do
29:36
that you can enter the lottery my dad won people
29:38
do actually win that um But
29:41
the masters like you have to go through
29:43
security metal detectors no phones What
29:46
is got is going on? I mean Backpacks
29:49
filled with shit. I don't know It's
29:52
dangerous. What if one of these kids wanted to do
29:54
something crazier? It's
29:59
just the children, but the update on
30:02
that is the
30:04
update, oh the update on Stonehenge.
30:07
Update! Sorry, update! So
30:11
the children that spray painted Stonehenge,
30:15
they were able, we removed the powder from
30:17
the stones and thankfully there appears to be
30:19
no visible damage. We move quickly as the
30:21
powder could harm the rare lichens.
30:24
I don't know. Lichens?
30:27
And if the powder, if
30:29
the powder combined with water it could leave, I don't
30:34
know, never heard of this word. A
30:36
lichen. Well I like it, I
30:38
like a lichen. It could
30:41
leave difficult to remove the streaks. So it could
30:43
have been permanent. I mean you
30:47
can't, all they're doing is making people not like
30:49
them. And guess who's gonna come to your
30:51
party if nobody likes you? Nobody. That's
30:53
right. I don't
30:55
know. I see the weather and I'm just like I don't
30:57
know if it's, can
31:00
we get a handle on this? Or is it
31:02
just the weather? I don't know. Then I sit
31:04
at the bar with my friend Mark who only
31:06
listens to Tucker Carlson. Sometimes
31:09
we sit down and I go Mark I can't hear from Tucker
31:11
today. Tomorrow, I'll listen
31:13
tomorrow. Right now I want to enjoy a
31:15
pitcher of beer and chicken wings and tell
31:17
me about your
31:19
golf. But he repeats
31:24
all the time that this is just weather. Maybe.
31:30
Maybe we didn't keep records 500 years ago.
31:33
But I don't know. It just
31:35
seems to be getting hotter and hotter and
31:37
hotter. And I think Minnesota is
31:39
gonna be the new. I have friends
31:41
that have a cabin up there and they sent me the temperature last week.
31:44
It was 69. It was 96 here. Update! Queen, the band. They've
31:52
sold their catalog. Guess
31:55
how much? Lots. Very
31:57
much lots. Very much lots. Lots
31:59
and lots. Guess, don't
32:01
Google it. $80 million. 1.27 billion.
32:04
Billion. Billion. Billion.
32:07
Yep. It's
32:09
the biggest acquisition of its kind. Earlier
32:12
this year Sony paid $600 million for 50% of
32:15
Michael Jackson's publishing and recorded master's catalog. Company
32:18
also purchased Bruce
32:20
Rixi, Paul Simon. Yeah.
32:25
And then it gets into the details which are totally
32:28
boring. Yeah. 1.27 billion. And
32:31
then you got to divide that between four people, I
32:33
suppose. Well Freddie, whoever wrote
32:35
it probably gets more. One
32:41
more update. So
32:44
I'm keeping an eye on the Iceland volcano doing the
32:46
work of the Lord for all the termites who have
32:48
jobs and are too busy for all this. We
32:51
now have to rush to block the
32:54
lava from engulfing a power plant.
32:57
Yeah. It's
33:02
Grindevik, the town where I still want to
33:04
know where are all, where did all the
33:06
people go? Where are they? Do
33:08
we have any termites that are Icelandic? The
33:13
volcanic eruption in the Icelandic town of
33:15
Grindevik is ongoing with lava posing a
33:18
threat to nearby infrastructure. Now urgent measures
33:20
must be taken to prevent the lava
33:22
from reaching the Svaasghe power plant.
33:28
The latest eruption which began in May is the fifth in
33:30
the area since December 2023. It's been
33:32
marked by vigorous lava flows and some
33:34
of the highest recorded and recent activity covering
33:37
main roads and threatening the infrastructure of Grindevik
33:39
and surrounding areas. If
33:41
I trust anybody, it's anybody
33:44
in these countries, whether it's Norway,
33:47
Sweden, Finland, Iceland
33:49
to know what to do. They're very
33:51
organized. I think they could figure it out.
33:53
They're kind of used to it. But
33:57
on the other hand, I don't know where
33:59
it goes. Holy
34:01
shit, they found it. This
34:04
is crazy. I never even heard
34:06
of this. Magnet fishing. Yeah,
34:09
I don't understand that. You get a giant
34:11
magnet on a rope, and then you're
34:14
hoping to find stuff in the lake or the creek
34:16
or whatever. Money
34:18
doesn't grow on trees, but for one New York couple,
34:21
it emerges from the filthy gunk at the bottom
34:23
of a city pond. James and
34:25
Barbie... Barbie? Yeah,
34:27
her name's Barbie. ...were magnet
34:30
fishing, using a cable to toss
34:32
a powerful magnet into a body of water when
34:34
they hooked something big. They yanked up
34:36
their hull and discovered their magnet had
34:39
grabbed onto a safe with bundles
34:42
of $100 bills inside. Inside.
34:44
The soggy, but intact bills were a $100,000
34:47
fortune for the couple. Yeah,
34:50
we pulled it out. We were seeing stacks of
34:52
hundreds, and we freaked out. They had found
34:54
other old safes, but they were
34:56
typically empty or contained plastic bags, and disintegrated
34:59
remains of money. They couldn't believe
35:01
it. They were freaked out. We
35:04
call it poor man's treasure hunting. Yeah, I
35:06
would not think the money would last. I think the
35:09
water would seep in somehow. Yeah. They
35:12
also found World War II grenades, an
35:15
intact motorcycle, foreign coins, and jewelry.
35:17
That's awesome. Yeah. Cover them.
35:20
If you'd like to watch them, they have
35:22
a YouTube channel called Let's Get Magnetic. Pow!
35:25
Oh my gosh. Of course
35:27
they do. Oh, God. Last month,
35:29
a magnet fisher in New Orleans found a
35:31
human skull that had been padlocked to an exercise
35:33
dumbbell. There you go.
35:36
Yeah, maybe I don't want to do that. I don't want to. No,
35:39
I'm good. Never thought about
35:41
pulling up bad shit. No. This
35:45
is a great holy shit they found. So
35:48
these people had a pet donkey, and it disappeared
35:50
five years ago. Their pet. And
35:53
he's been spotted living with a herd of wild owls. Stop it.
35:56
He's out living his best life. Oh,
35:58
wonderful. Yep. When
36:01
Diesel the donkey ran away on a hike
36:03
near his home outside Sacramento five years ago,
36:05
the owners assumed the worst. He's not aggressive,
36:07
he's a lover, but
36:10
right now he's scared. This was days after
36:12
his escape. Years passed without a sign
36:14
of life from Diesel until earlier this year when
36:16
a hunter spotted them and filmed a herd of
36:18
at least a dozen elk in
36:20
the Northern California wilderness. Among them, strangely,
36:22
was a wild burrow. Drewree
36:25
is positive that the donkey in the
36:27
hunter's video is her Diesel. We
36:29
finally saw him. Finally, we know he's
36:31
living his best life. He's happy, he's healthy, and it was
36:34
just a relief. They adopted Diesel from the
36:36
Bureau of Land Management and he had lived on
36:38
in their ranch for the first few
36:40
years of his life alongside chickens, a llama, and
36:42
a miniature donkey. My friend Andrea has a miniature
36:44
donkey, it's adorable. It's adorable
36:46
till it has diarrhea in the garage. And then,
36:49
yeah, not so much. On
36:53
a fateful hike in 2019, Diesel noticed something that
36:55
spooked him and took off running. Dragging
36:57
Drewree's husband, Dave, through the bushes behind him, she
37:00
told him for some time. For weeks they searched
37:02
for him, through the rugged terrain, though they
37:04
spotted him once on a trail cam and found some
37:06
tracks that may have matched his, they never found him.
37:11
And then this guy took a video. She said, I
37:13
can't get over it, I'm amazed. The donkey looks so
37:15
happy and healthy. That's a great little
37:17
story. Yeah, he's out there just having the
37:19
life he was supposed to have. Yeah,
37:21
they're not gonna go get him. She said,
37:23
nope, you know, let him go. They're not
37:26
gonna try and catch him or bring him back. Donkeys
37:28
in the wild can usually find plenty to eat.
37:30
And the donkey appears to be thriving in the
37:32
wilderness with friends by his side. He's truly a
37:34
wild burrow now. Compared to
37:37
the not so feral cats that
37:39
let another cat come in this house today. What?
37:43
Yeah. What happened? I opened the
37:45
door to let in a Charpo
37:48
and Cotto wanted in for a while. They like to come
37:50
in for a little bit, as long as
37:52
I don't shut the door. Baby
37:55
cat'll say in 24 sevens, she don't care. These are not
37:57
feral cats. No, not
37:59
feral. No, not anymore. And then
38:01
I went in to go put in my contacts
38:03
and came back out. There's an orange and white
38:06
cat Yep, just sitting there
38:09
Eating treats out of the Bigfoot dish. I'm
38:11
like, wow they do nothing I think
38:14
it's because they were outside so long when they
38:16
were little they're just used to everything There's
38:18
a raccoon that comes every day It
38:20
eats it looks and then it gets a drink out of
38:22
the water fountain Even if I put the food away it
38:25
comes for a drink which is fine And
38:27
I don't want them to get in fights, but
38:29
they could do a little better guarding just say
38:31
maybe not today right Move
38:35
it on to news people Moving
38:38
on to news Mmm,
38:42
I could not tell if it was feral or not the orange
38:45
and white one. I think it might have been a pet It
38:48
was a little dirty though The white part was a
38:50
little dirty which makes me think it's been in
38:52
the woods a lot And then I had to chase one of
38:55
these jackasses in the woods and I got chiggers everywhere If you've
38:57
ever had a chigger bite, they'd never
38:59
go away and I found a medicine
39:01
though I'm gonna do a video. It's called chigurex It
39:04
worked great Chigurex
39:07
Yep There it's way
39:09
worse than a tick bite Do
39:12
I read no I took it to the pharmacist I go
39:14
use this work and he looked at
39:16
me he goes I'd get the Hydrocordizone also.
39:19
I'm like, oh judgey judgey judgey Just
39:21
read what's on it. Does it work? They
39:25
scar too it takes forever for a chigger bite to
39:27
go away Chigger
39:30
and the thing is you can't really see them like
39:33
a tick. I don't know where
39:35
I was I had it in the woods Oh
39:37
with my mom Walking the
39:39
dog and then I had a tick on it came on
39:41
the side of my ear. Damn. There's
39:43
still a huge bump Yeah,
39:45
it's nasty anyway from research
39:48
assistant Bob Reed unpaid
39:50
intern Hooters
39:52
is closing 300
39:55
restaurants. No, what
39:57
will my friend Ron White do for lunch? I
40:03
am not a Hooters wing person.
40:06
No, I like the traditional buffalo wings. I don't
40:08
like the way there's like mini
40:10
fried chicken wings. No,
40:13
I'm not in love with it. The rest, that's fine
40:15
if you want to go in for a salad. Fine,
40:17
but I
40:19
don't really choose Hooters. For
40:21
beers, fine. But they've
40:25
made the difficult decision to close a select
40:27
number of underperforming stores. One is by Bob's
40:29
house. The company did not release illicit affected
40:31
locations or a specific number. Well, you know what? We
40:34
could do that right here. Right. Doing the work of
40:36
the Lord. Terrence, do you have one that closed by
40:38
you? Let me know where it's at and
40:40
I'm gonna out these people for where they're closing them.
40:42
They say the
40:44
brand remains highly resilient and relevant.
40:49
There's one about two miles from where I'm sitting
40:51
and it's not usually that crowded.
40:54
No. Waffle
40:56
House is booming, but Waffle
40:58
House is smart. Only have
41:01
four booths. We look packed.
41:03
Accounting for the closures.
41:07
Hooters has about 300 global locations and a 12% declines
41:09
in 2018. Menu
41:12
prices, blah blah blah. Doesn't matter.
41:15
There's more Miller Ale houses and
41:17
more Dave and Busters. They're building
41:19
new ones. I like a
41:22
Miller's Ale house on the road. Yep. They have
41:24
a great chicken sandwich. FYI. They even
41:26
Busters. I don't even know that I've ever
41:28
eaten there. I've played Crazy Taxi. I love
41:30
that game. And drank
41:33
and it's a video game. Where
41:35
you drive a taxi and you pick people up. You get
41:37
to pick what your driver is and then you can pick
41:39
people up or not. If they look like drug dealers because
41:41
some of them could shoot you. Right.
41:44
Exactly. News. Little
41:46
Catholic news. Love it. This is why he's
41:48
my favorite Pope. Pope Francis
41:50
said priests should give short sermon so people
41:52
don't fall asleep. Oh yeah. That's
41:55
right. Keep it tight. Yeah.
41:58
I mean I know. for everybody who's
42:00
gonna say something. I know the Catholic Church has
42:02
its issues. We just acknowledge all that. I'm just
42:04
saying these are the things, this is
42:07
progress. Let's tighten it up. Open
42:10
mic night, you get five minutes. He's giving you
42:12
eight. He's being generous. He gave you three more
42:14
than an open mic spot and you
42:16
go over eight. I think there should be a red light and
42:18
then we turn off your mic. Yep. Frank
42:21
gives you the light. He
42:24
said this Wednesday at the Vatican. Sometimes priests talk
42:26
a lot and you no longer understand what they
42:28
are saying. The homily, that's a speech
42:30
of if you're not Catholic, you read
42:32
something out of the Bible and then they give a speech
42:34
on that little tiny speech. But it used to shit. I
42:37
mean, some of the people, when I was a kid would
42:39
go on for like an hour. And
42:42
then my dad would be like, we're fine at a
42:44
different church. We're not doing that again. And then we
42:46
would drive an extra 20 minutes to a different church.
42:48
I'm like, was that really a time saver, dad? We
42:50
just drove 20 minutes one way. We're gonna drive 20
42:52
minutes back. We could have just walked down. We can
42:55
get the carnal game on. The homily, a message
42:57
delivered by the Catholic priests during the church service.
43:00
It must be short, an image, a thought,
43:02
a feeling. Ooh. That's
43:06
hard. I never
43:08
think about that when I'm doing
43:10
my act. Is this a thought or a feel, an
43:12
image? That's hard. It
43:16
should not last more than eight minutes because after that the
43:18
attention is lost and people fall asleep and they are right.
43:21
It's at the Pope, age 87, Selma, Vam, Vam,
43:23
Vam. He's smiling while he
43:25
says it too. It's
43:28
giving after reading from the Bible and
43:30
then used to reinforce religious teachings. The Pope's words echo
43:32
the recommendations made by Archbishop so-and-so in 2010
43:34
in his book, The
43:37
Word of God, which prelates to
43:40
keep their homilies to eight minutes or
43:42
shorter and to avoid improv from the
43:44
pulpit. Oh. Why can't you do
43:46
a little improv if you thought of something, say
43:49
it. Exactly. What's that about? Yeah, that's made it
43:51
interesting. Yeah. I don't ever feel
43:53
like they wrote it. I
43:55
feel like it's all improv. Maybe they're that good at
43:57
it. It's also.
44:00
in line with the shrinking American tension span,
44:02
which is causing leaders and other professions to
44:04
issue advisories on how long that things should
44:06
go on. Per CBS News, the
44:08
Associated Press has advised writers to keep most
44:10
articles under 500 words. The
44:12
average shot in a
44:14
movie now is under five seconds. No,
44:18
but I noticed that because sometimes it gets too jumpy
44:20
for me in a movie where I'm like, slow the
44:22
fuck down. Why do we have to
44:24
get a shot of his nostrils when we were
44:26
on his whole body and he was talking? I
44:29
don't like it, but I don't know. I'm not one
44:31
of the five second people. I'm not one of the
44:33
children. You're not a TikTok. I'm not. Well,
44:36
I'm going to get my TikTok. I'm going to get my TikTok
44:38
in shape. Yeah, it's been neglected
44:40
because I've just been busy, but I'm
44:43
going to get it rolling. Rocking.
44:46
Rocking. Well, I have all my specials. I don't
44:48
know. There's like eight that could
44:50
be chopped up for jokes and then, you
44:53
know, I haven't done it, but I do
44:55
my own Twitter for the most. Sometimes if
44:57
there's a graphic, I didn't design that, but
44:59
I'm doing my own Twitter, my own Instagram,
45:02
the facial book I have a little help with because I don't,
45:05
it's overwhelming to me. You
45:08
hate Facebook? Well, I don't love it, but I do
45:10
look at it. I look at the email
45:12
from this, the podcast on the inbox
45:15
and all that. Some of them are very funny.
45:20
Not all of them I can't. I don't have time, but I look at a
45:22
lot. News.
45:26
Flip phones are surging. They're
45:29
on the comeback as
45:31
folks seek a connection without distraction.
45:35
Now a long time ago, a man
45:38
who I may or may not be related
45:40
to, I won't
45:42
say who, who knew he
45:44
was such a dirty little bird, told
45:46
me that a lot of his guy friends
45:48
had flip phones in case they wanted to
45:50
like have an affair. Because
45:53
then they talk on that phone and there's no
45:55
record of it on their real phone and they
45:57
keep that phone in the glove compartment of the
45:59
car. You know, I
46:02
know I know people are busy
46:04
busy dirty birds busy bitty bit
46:06
But anyway flip phones are
46:08
having a moment. It's true People
46:10
are snatching up the bit my friend Chuck always has
46:12
a flip phone. He always has well He
46:15
likes it because it is true when you
46:17
close the phone the conversations on off I
46:20
mean for sure off how many times
46:22
I can tell you I think I've turned
46:24
off the phone And
46:26
I haven't and then I
46:28
thank God I haven't said anything shitty about somebody
46:30
but if I had they'd have heard it, right
46:34
my parents No idea how
46:36
to turn off a phone. It's a conversation never
46:38
hangs up It's just I that's why they're all
46:40
they're like why are our chargers aren't working. No,
46:42
it's that your phones never off It couldn't keep
46:45
up if we had 17 of
46:47
the most brand new chargers on the planet So
46:49
when you shut the flip phone, you know,
46:51
it's over right? It's a guarantee Versus
46:54
that It's
46:56
true people are snatching up the basic clam shell
46:59
throwbacks of the early 2000s faster Oh,
47:01
I think I still have to maybe I'll put them on the
47:04
on the eBay That a bag
47:07
of discounted Reese's didn't have that's not
47:09
funny. The reasons are simple We're burned
47:11
out on smart phones social media and
47:13
passively allowing our lives to melt away
47:16
mindlessly stuck on screens I
47:20
Learn a lot on social media. Yeah, I
47:22
get a lot of information that actually is
47:24
in my life. Yes that matters
47:28
Unless a lot of sports stuff speaking in which I forgot
47:30
to say if you'll notice Fred bird The
47:34
cardinal mascot is sneaking out because
47:36
we're in second place albeit our divisions
47:39
terrible second the
47:42
Brewers and My
47:44
friend Dax is a cubbies person and they have gone
47:46
from second to last Now that's
47:48
gonna change all summer and I am NOT thinking the
47:50
Cardinals are gonna be spectacular. I don't like that I
47:53
don't like the owner. I don't like the manager. I
47:55
think it's all bullshit not
47:57
a happy fan But because the players
47:59
themselves I've done a good job, I'm moving for a burto.
48:02
Anyway, according
48:05
to late statistics, the average person spends five
48:07
hours a day on their smartphone. I
48:10
don't think so. Which
48:12
equals six days a month and a
48:14
mind boggling 12 years over a lifetime.
48:20
Yeah, but you know, like in the
48:22
morning, I get up and do the phone. Why is that
48:24
any different than the newspaper that I used to read? Like
48:27
on the road. It's more environmentally friendly.
48:30
You write? Yeah. And we're not
48:32
wasting all that paper. No, we're gonna lower it. So in the row, on the
48:34
row back in the day, I would go down
48:36
and get the local paper, say the
48:38
Omaha World Herald and USA Today and
48:41
get my coffee and I would read, why is that any
48:43
different than me reading on the phone right now? I don't
48:45
think that, we're still just reading news. I
48:48
mean, I don't know what the rest of the day people are
48:50
doing, but I know at least us
48:52
old people. Or, you know,
48:54
I'm on Instagram or looking, when
48:57
Cindy Lauper coming, that, you know, things
48:59
that fucking matter. She's on the
49:01
road. I wanna see her, I've never seen her. Well,
49:04
she on tour that much. I wanna see her
49:06
and Annie Lennox. Together. Well,
49:08
together, apart, I don't care. Whatever they
49:11
wanna do. Wow. Yeah.
49:15
Yeah, our human willpower
49:17
and band-aid fixes like built-in social
49:19
media app limits don't help. If
49:22
you took an alcoholic, who had a problem with alcohol
49:24
and couldn't control it, then said the best thing to
49:26
do is get the alcohol out of the house, right?
49:28
So that's how I sort of looked at it. This
49:31
guy said, Will Brawley from his home. He
49:35
created and co-owns the popular restaurant
49:37
software thing, I don't care. He
49:42
replaced his iPhone with a Verizon flip phone four
49:44
years ago, and he says he does not miss
49:46
it at all. Boy,
49:48
I get yelled at for having an Android.
49:50
What if I was at a flip? What
49:52
if I could text from a flip to
49:54
the family thread? That would just really, really get
49:57
me deeper in shit. Yep. a
50:00
goddamn flip phone. It
50:05
wouldn't be green. No, it would just be numbers. It
50:07
wouldn't even make any sense. I
50:09
didn't like who I was when I had an iPhone.
50:11
I wasn't present with other people. I was constantly checking
50:14
email texts, sitting at a stoplight, looking at my phone,
50:16
constantly grabbing the phone, being distracted, and being distracted while
50:18
I was with my wife and kids. Now,
50:20
having just a flip phone, it's a
50:22
mental health boon for me. He said,
50:25
the small inconveniences are so enormously outweighed
50:27
by the positive outcomes just from my
50:29
presence, mental health, my anxiety, all of
50:31
that's improved
50:33
dramatically. Well, maybe
50:36
you had a problem. I
50:39
don't feel like when I'm with other people,
50:41
I turn my phone on. My
50:46
parents are sick, if I
50:48
have to, like in case there's an emergency,
50:50
but I don't sit there while people are
50:52
talking and check my phone. That's rude. Examples
50:57
of simple flip phone features, not
51:00
the snazzy Galaxy Flip 5, are
51:02
up for the second year. The
51:05
new Galaxy is a
51:07
flip phone? The Samsung Galaxy Flip 5.
51:10
Are you going to get it? I don't
51:12
know. I have to go look at it. I
51:14
might get it. I don't know. I don't
51:17
like going to this rent store or T-Mobile,
51:19
whatever it's called. The children are
51:21
so helpful. There are two of the
51:23
actual children, Zoomers, they're like in
51:25
their 20s, and they just look at me like I'm their
51:27
mom, and I just act dumber
51:29
than I even am, which is really stupid, but about
51:31
tech stuff. I don't know anything. And I'm like, can
51:34
you just make everything in this phone go to that
51:36
phone? Do not send me home to go to some
51:38
fucking app. I'll never do it. I won't do it
51:40
right. Then I'll lose every video and picture I have.
51:43
They do it. They're like, okay, so can
51:45
you go get lunch or something? I'm like, absolutely.
51:47
I'm going to go get lunch. Yeah. But
51:50
they're very nice. Those are all your
51:52
cat videos. This
51:58
one girl, she's an and influencer too, but
52:01
she, oh, she
52:03
takes it out because it makes her more
52:05
present, but it also eliminates drunk text and
52:08
bad hookups. All of the bad things
52:10
about college, all of the good things about a flip phone,
52:12
which is connected with people and
52:14
taking videos and photos. I will-
52:16
Just eliminate drunk texting. Well,
52:19
because to text on a flip phone, remember
52:21
when you could? Yeah. A. A.
52:24
A. It's a lot hard. A drunk won't
52:26
go through all that. It's more like Morse code. Yeah,
52:29
I don't think a drunk person would
52:33
have the wherewithal. I wouldn't. No.
52:35
That's another TED Talk. Yeah. Drunk Texting.
52:38
So is that, oh, here's a picture of
52:40
the, I've
52:42
seen this one flip. I don't
52:44
know. Is it cool? Gotta think about it. Well, yeah, it
52:47
looks better than the old ones used to, but- Let's
52:49
go look at it. Well, we'll go look at it. I'll
52:51
go look at it. And I'm gonna go to the Cracker
52:53
Barrel by my house that claims it's remodeled. And I'm
52:55
gonna do the work of the Lord, and I'm gonna go
52:57
get some pancakes. And then this
53:00
is from research assistant, Louis
53:02
Black. Unpaid intern.
53:07
Baseball stadium becomes the first to offer
53:09
THC products for the fans. What?
53:12
Yep. That's hilarious. Well, first
53:15
ballparks offered hot dogs and pedestrian lagers. The
53:17
then concessions boomed with all sorts of nibbles,
53:19
entrees, and drinks, highlighting local restaurants and craft
53:21
beers. Now you can go to a ballpark
53:24
and get high. Not every ballpark. But
53:27
you can at Walker Stadium in
53:29
Oregon where the Portland Pickles play a minor
53:31
league ball team. The Portland Pickles, I bet
53:33
their merch is great. The
53:36
team announced this month that through
53:38
a partnership with Cycling Frog, a
53:40
dispenser of hemp derived THC plus
53:42
CBD products, that it would sell
53:45
seltzers with THC in it. That's
53:48
confusing. Yeah. Oh, what if
53:50
you don't know? The
53:53
team said it's the first time a sports team
53:55
is selling THC products at a live
53:57
event. What? I
54:01
don't know, I don't care. Whatever.
54:04
It's Oregon. If anybody's going to do it,
54:06
it should be them. The Portland Pickles
54:08
have a responsibility in the sports industry to
54:10
take leaps and set precedence of innovative partnerships,
54:13
as we saw in 2019 becoming
54:15
the first team ever to partner with
54:17
a CBD company and quickly turn teams
54:19
all the way up with Major League
54:21
across sports follows suit.
54:25
Yeah. Speaking of which, did you guys go
54:27
watch Renee? Did you watch the documentary? Here's
54:29
the things I'm excited about too. I
54:31
know I'm skipping back a little bit. I cannot
54:34
wait to watch the Celine Dion documentary. There's
54:37
part of her that is so off-putting
54:39
to me because everything's so dramatic. But
54:42
there's also part of her that I'm fascinated with
54:44
because she is that person. And
54:46
I believe her. I believe she's sincere. I
54:48
kind of can't wait. And then for...
54:51
A lot of narcissism
54:53
I've heard. Narcissism you've heard? Yeah, I've heard.
54:55
Well, she's had rough road. Her husband died.
54:58
Her mom died. Everybody's
55:00
dying. Predated that.
55:04
Would you be saying this because you're from the west
55:06
of Canada and maybe you don't care
55:08
for the middle Quebec? Is that because
55:11
you were forced to learn French for just one tiny
55:13
group of people? Is that why I feel the hatred
55:15
coming? I think I do. And
55:19
I can't wait to watch PBS. They have a
55:21
new thing called the new
55:24
dig about Pompeii. So I just
55:26
meant to say those. Yeah. All
55:28
right. Now, here's something. Would
55:31
you go to this termites? I'm going
55:33
to tell you this. Would you go? Would you spend,
55:35
I think they said 50 bucks. I saw a story
55:37
online about it. I saw it on TV and then
55:39
I saw it online. Netflix is going to open two
55:41
massive venues with experiences, shops themed
55:43
to its shows. Now
55:46
here's something that was super cool. So
55:49
remember when Vikings was on? On
55:51
the history channels. It's a Discovery Channel. I think they
55:53
were all, they're all the same, under
55:55
the same house. In New York, they
55:57
had a Vikings exhibit. At
56:01
the same time as Vikings was on, I
56:03
was first lady there in the morning. Yep, buy
56:05
my ticket, 30 bucks or whatever. It
56:08
was awesome. But it was
56:10
great because it's like interacting with
56:12
what's on your mind right now if
56:14
you're watching Vikings. But
56:17
this one, they're called,
56:20
it's a Netflix house. The
56:22
first two locations which will include events and shops
56:24
themed to its shows will be in Dallas at
56:27
their Galleria, I believe. And the King of
56:29
Prussia Mall in Pennsylvania.
56:34
You get to immerse yourself in the world as your
56:36
favorite shows. The experimental
56:38
complexes will include elaborate events
56:41
in a repurposing of empty retail
56:44
space. I'm telling you, turn in every one
56:46
of these malls into it's a pickleball
56:48
court. And bars. Well,
56:51
around the pickleball. Pickle bars.
56:53
Pickle bars, pickleball bars. Pickle,
56:55
bar, bar, bar, ball. Well,
56:59
who'll brand that? Pickle bars. All old people would
57:01
say, especially all
57:03
my friends would say, let's
57:05
play pickleball and have some wine. They
57:08
would like to congratulate themselves for 42
57:11
minutes of fake exercise. And
57:13
then as I would, and then go, I
57:15
deserve this. Very
57:18
competitive. They are gonna occupy these
57:20
Netflix houses, former department store locations at the
57:22
Dallas Galleria. They'll spend 100,000 square feet.
57:25
They're set to open in 2025. I
57:29
don't know. For fans of say, Squid Game, the
57:31
dark drama and reality show, Netflix
57:34
promises to recreate the program's
57:36
glass bridge challenge. You
57:39
walk or jump across clear panels
57:41
that shatter and drop
57:43
them if they stand on the wrong one. No,
57:46
I'm not doing that. Well,
57:49
I'm not gonna do anything at this age
57:51
that's gonna scare myself on purpose. It's
57:54
not happening. We're not their target audience. I
57:56
don't know who it's for, but like what
57:58
other shows, Burgerton? I watch season one.
58:01
I know that's stupid. I can't. Well, good
58:03
for you, pal. You, you, you, you motor
58:05
on and with your palm, palm Royal season
58:07
two, something to do for 12 hours. We
58:11
watch different stuff. I don't know. I just
58:13
don't, I can't even think of any shows
58:15
on Netflix that I would be like, yeah,
58:17
I want to get
58:19
in that show. I
58:22
want to be part of it. Yeah. That show
58:24
is part of it. I'm not sure. I'm not sure.
58:28
Yeah, that shows part of it. The
58:31
Queen's Ball. I
58:34
don't know, but I heard on the thing. It's not written
58:36
on here. It's like 50 bucks a ticket. That's
58:38
a lot. It's a lot. How long did you get to be in
58:40
for? What about the children? Fine.
58:42
They don't want some of the children do. I don't know how long
58:45
you get to stay in. They'll show them.
58:47
They'll show them. Ask their parents. Speaking of shit
58:49
I wouldn't do. This
58:53
is why, like, I don't know. You
58:56
just get to an age and this isn't
58:58
recently. This is probably a good 20 years
59:00
now. I just refuse to go on rollercoaster.
59:03
I won't do anything that could
59:05
cause my death unnecessarily because I
59:07
know it's common. Eventually we're all
59:10
going to die, but do I need to speed
59:12
it up by doing some Jackassery? No, I don't.
59:14
But when you're young, you don't think like that.
59:17
So I understand why people do it, but at
59:19
this age I won't do 28 people are trapped
59:22
upside down on an amusement park ride rescued
59:25
by the fire department in Oregon. 28
59:27
people. It went on for like
59:29
a half hour. I was just crying. I
59:31
was more happy. I was alive, a rider said, after
59:34
being taken off the thing. Yeah, more than two
59:36
dozen people recovering after theme park ride
59:39
in Oregon left them hanging upside down for more than
59:41
20 minutes. Upside
59:43
down. On
59:45
Friday, June 14th, 28 passengers
59:47
were riding Portland's Oaks amusement
59:50
park atmosphere with
59:52
fears and all cabs atmosphere.
59:55
The ride stopped in place suspending them
59:57
all upside down in its apex position.
1:00:00
Oh my God.
1:00:03
The riot operators working
1:00:06
on atmosphere which can operate at either 180 degree or
1:00:08
300 degree setting
1:00:10
as it sends its riders flipping through the
1:00:12
air in a loop called 911 and begin
1:00:14
initiating emergency. Can
1:00:17
you imagine the headache? 20
1:00:19
minutes upside down. All of the blood
1:00:22
is rushing to your brain. They
1:00:25
arrived, the firefighters were pretty quickly
1:00:28
and got everybody off safely. But this is
1:00:30
like, right. You just got
1:00:32
scared literally like to death. You
1:00:34
thought you were going to die. Yeah, no. And
1:00:37
you paid for that. She
1:00:44
said, the one girl said she
1:00:47
was afraid, but more importantly, her
1:00:49
entire waste, her entire
1:00:51
waste below everything
1:00:54
below her waste was asleep. All
1:00:57
the blood had gone away. You
1:00:59
have to hold your leg back. It was so hard. It
1:01:02
was so bad. So there's like, there's
1:01:05
this like woman firefighter and she's so
1:01:07
tiny and she's like, oh, I got
1:01:09
you describing her rescue. I'm like,
1:01:11
are you sure? And she literally like picked
1:01:14
me up and I was just overwhelmed and
1:01:16
everything. And I gave her like the biggest
1:01:18
hug. I
1:01:21
just, this is why I can't, I
1:01:23
can't even know. And like my nieces and
1:01:25
nephews at six flags or whatever, go ahead
1:01:28
or ask if there's another adult who wants to take
1:01:30
you. I'm not doing it. I'll get
1:01:32
on the teacups. There's a lot of shit I'll get
1:01:35
on. Antique cars. Sure. Oh,
1:01:37
log, right? Love a log, right? Log,
1:01:39
flume, flume. Doug
1:01:45
Benson used to have the funniest joke. I
1:01:47
don't know if he still does it. He's
1:01:49
a comedian. He's very funny. The log, uh,
1:01:51
ride it, whatever, say six legs, whatever he said
1:01:54
he liked to get. Um,
1:01:57
this is his joke, not mine, but he liked
1:01:59
to get. in a
1:02:01
family log and he's the
1:02:03
only one that's not part of the family and then
1:02:05
at the end it always takes your picture of you
1:02:07
coming out of the thing and he said he particularly
1:02:10
wanted to get in with the Asian families because their
1:02:12
pictures meant so much to them like and they had
1:02:14
their friends taking pictures and then he would behave
1:02:16
like a moron in the back of their log And
1:02:21
they'd be pointing at him and go you ruin
1:02:23
a whole log Sorry Just
1:02:28
to think I'm gonna get in that log and ruin
1:02:30
these people's family I know
1:02:32
but it's funny. I mean who knows if
1:02:34
he really did it. I believe he would Here's
1:02:38
something where you're like really are you guys
1:02:40
really I'm gonna doubt this lady The
1:02:43
woman's oldest the world's oldest woman who claims she
1:02:45
was born six months before the death of Queen
1:02:47
Victoria celebrates her 124th
1:02:50
birthday it's believed she
1:02:52
that they have to she claims
1:02:54
claims the ladies a hundred twenty-four
1:02:57
I mean just believe her her
1:03:00
name is Amantina Oh Santos
1:03:04
the Virgum also known as Donna julio.
1:03:06
She was born on June 22nd night
1:03:10
Julio Julia
1:03:12
Donna Julia is what I read Donna
1:03:15
Donna Julio She
1:03:19
said to have been born on June 2nd 22nd 1900
1:03:22
which is really weird because I always look at rental car
1:03:24
things and how old can you be? Yeah, I believe it
1:03:26
was Hertz. It said 1904 and
1:03:29
I that's my grandpa's birth year and I'm like,
1:03:31
wow So you'd let somebody that would be a hundred and
1:03:34
twenty four right
1:03:40
She lives in Sierra Gaius in
1:03:42
the state of piranha Um
1:03:47
Right 124 Her
1:03:49
social worker says she doesn't have diabetes headaches or
1:03:51
high blood pressure. She doesn't take any medicine and
1:03:54
she doesn't have gray hair She loves wearing earrings
1:03:56
and bracelets They threw
1:03:58
her a special party to celebrate the official
1:04:00
date of her birth? Well, where we get
1:04:02
that? She's Brazilian. Although
1:04:05
her age is recognized by the Brazilian government,
1:04:07
she's been denied a place in
1:04:10
the Guinness World Book of Records because of a mix-up
1:04:12
with a birth certificate. Can't
1:04:15
you just put in there, this lady's alive and we
1:04:17
think she could be too? Just come on, be nice.
1:04:19
Put the lady in the book. What do you give
1:04:21
a shit? Yeah, just put it, yeah,
1:04:23
but ask her to buy it. Say, maybe, you know,
1:04:27
she spent a significant chunk of her life
1:04:29
on the streets. She was adopted at the
1:04:31
age of a hundred by
1:04:34
a woman named Maria Edner
1:04:37
de Alameda. And then
1:04:39
there's a picture of the lady. She
1:04:43
kind of, well,
1:04:46
she's very tiny. She's a very tiny
1:04:48
person. No, no, but I
1:04:50
mean not from like shrinking and stuff. She started out
1:04:52
like my height and now she's probably four
1:04:55
two. She's a tiny little hands,
1:04:57
tiny little hands. Oh,
1:04:59
here she is in a winter coat. You can barely
1:05:01
see her face. She's got her hood up. Current World
1:05:06
Book of Records, they say the oldest person in
1:05:08
America born is Spanish. We know this because you
1:05:10
listen to this podcast. Maria
1:05:12
Brannes-Moria who turned 117.
1:05:14
This lady's way older, I believe her. She
1:05:19
spent a lot of her life on the streets. That's all it says. It
1:05:23
doesn't say, and she's not in a nursing home or
1:05:25
nothing. She's active on
1:05:27
social media, frequently posting on Twitter.
1:05:33
She said, I'm surprised and grateful for the- She posts on Twitter.
1:05:36
Well, with the help of her daughter. Who's probably
1:05:38
90. Yeah,
1:05:45
so there you go. I believe her. I
1:05:47
just, I can't believe people, I know there's no, you
1:05:49
know, but the thing is if you're gonna be this
1:05:51
old there may not be proof. Maybe
1:05:54
they didn't keep records in Brazil at that time of
1:05:56
those people. Um, because
1:05:59
this is crazy. Well, tell
1:06:01
me what you think about this termites.
1:06:04
Uh-huh. So
1:06:06
if you look at my Wikipedia, it says I was
1:06:08
born in Florissant, Missouri, which is also
1:06:10
the Ferguson-Floresant school district, which is why I say I'm
1:06:12
also from Ferguson, but really I
1:06:14
was born in Jennings, Missouri.
1:06:17
But Florissant is what it kind of turned into. So
1:06:20
the Midwest restaurant is igniting conversation
1:06:22
over its
1:06:24
strict age policy. Termites
1:06:27
tell me what you think. On May
1:06:29
26th, Bliss Restaurant, a recently opened Caribbean
1:06:31
restaurant in Florissant, Missouri, announced
1:06:34
a policy for its patronage that has
1:06:37
since gone viral around the internet. The
1:06:39
eatery, which serves dishes like oxtail, jollof
1:06:44
rice and fried plantain,
1:06:46
revealed that its age restrictions for
1:06:48
its entry are women must
1:06:50
be over 30, 30
1:06:53
or over, and men must be 35 or older. I
1:06:56
like that they decided we are five years
1:06:58
more socially well behaved than men. They're
1:07:01
like, well, the women are fine by 30. The
1:07:03
guys, I don't know, let's hang on until 35.
1:07:06
Yeah, they're not, you know, it takes them a hot
1:07:09
minute to learn how to behave. And
1:07:11
then it says, as a black-owned business, Bliss
1:07:14
Caribbean Restaurant is dedicated to providing North County
1:07:16
with an upscale dining experience.
1:07:19
They wrote on Facebook, and they're
1:07:21
adding that the restriction ensures a
1:07:23
grown and sexy atmosphere. Now,
1:07:26
here's the thing, but I'll
1:07:28
never forget. So when my
1:07:30
brother Pat and his wife, they had little
1:07:32
Pat, he was probably at the most two,
1:07:34
he's in a high chair,
1:07:38
I know this, and they
1:07:40
were in Florida, we were all down seeing my mom
1:07:42
and dad, and they decided they were going to go
1:07:44
out on their own to have an anniversary
1:07:46
dinner or something, but they had to take little
1:07:48
Pat. I don't know why they ended up by
1:07:50
themselves. And I
1:07:53
said, how was dinner? Was it romantic
1:07:55
for your anniversary? He goes, no, Kathleen.
1:07:57
He goes, little Pat. He
1:08:00
goes, I mean, I didn't mind so much,
1:08:02
but there was a couple not far from us
1:08:04
really trying to have a romantic dinner. And it's
1:08:06
just not romantic when a fork that isn't yours
1:08:08
flies through the air and lands on your table.
1:08:13
And I could just picture little Pat just,
1:08:15
like, I mean, there
1:08:17
is a thing that kids can kind of
1:08:20
make the atmosphere. I think it's
1:08:22
funny, but if you're trying to
1:08:24
have, like he wants a grown and sexy
1:08:26
atmosphere, the
1:08:29
restaurant lists three reasons for his policy.
1:08:31
Oh, the one time the twins, my
1:08:33
sister's twins, they were like a year,
1:08:35
we were again
1:08:38
down seeing my parents in Florida and we
1:08:40
all went out and they were
1:08:42
really good babies. But for whatever reason, they were
1:08:44
like nine months old, both of them were in
1:08:46
high chairs. When one would lose it, the other
1:08:48
one would lose it. It was like a mirror
1:08:51
effect. They were twins, yeah. And then it started
1:08:53
with Claire and then Emily mimicked it and it
1:08:55
just kept getting louder and louder. My brother-in-law Matt,
1:08:57
who's like a country guy, like he was just
1:08:59
like, Katie, we don't
1:09:01
leave. You gotta stop that, make them
1:09:03
stop. It's
1:09:06
like, Matt, I can't just make them stop.
1:09:08
They have clean diapers, they've been fed. They're
1:09:10
just angry. Like he's like, what do you
1:09:12
mean they're angry? Their minds don't even work
1:09:15
like that. We gotta get these babies out
1:09:17
of here. I
1:09:20
said to Kate, because I was with him, I
1:09:22
couldn't stop laughing. I thought it was so funny
1:09:24
and I'm like, it's
1:09:27
funny to us and I understand it's not funny
1:09:29
to other people, we do need to figure out
1:09:32
how to stop it. Make them stop it, Katie. It
1:09:36
went on, she's like, let's just get the food to go.
1:09:38
I'm like, great idea. And it went on for a good,
1:09:40
I don't
1:09:42
know, five to 10 minutes and in a restaurant
1:09:45
that's kind of a lot. There's other people trying
1:09:47
to eat that don't need all this shit, anyway.
1:09:52
The restaurant lists three reasons for its policy.
1:09:54
It creates a mature and relaxed atmosphere for
1:09:56
guests and the restriction allows staff
1:09:59
to focus on quality. and that the
1:10:01
policy ensures our restaurant remains a premier
1:10:03
destination for those seeking an upscale, cribbing
1:10:05
dining experience. This policy helps us make
1:10:07
a sophisticated environment, hold up our standards,
1:10:09
and support the sustainability of our unique
1:10:12
ambiance. Yeah,
1:10:15
I just love that they made it 30. But
1:10:17
then there's other people that are mad about
1:10:20
it. But really, is a
1:10:22
kid gonna want oxtail? I
1:10:24
mean, maybe you could go to 25. What's...
1:10:30
I don't know. They've
1:10:33
gotten a little bit of backlash, but that's okay. They're sticking
1:10:36
to their code. Next time I go home, I'll
1:10:38
go there. See what it's like. I'll do it with the work of
1:10:40
the Lord. Well,
1:10:43
I do like a plantain. I've never had oxtail. I can't
1:10:46
judge it. I haven't. Somebody...
1:10:50
Twitter comments are always so funny. Some
1:10:52
lady wrote, grown folks only and no
1:10:54
twerking on the tables. I support it. Boom!
1:10:57
Yep. Somebody wrote, we need 10
1:10:59
of these in California. We don't
1:11:01
need them. We need about four in Oakland alone,
1:11:03
LOL. Love this, because it's
1:11:05
for a mature crowd. But it makes you want to go out... It
1:11:08
makes you want to go out again without
1:11:11
the nonsense. I wouldn't have minded if you said
1:11:13
40 and up. Oh, wow. Let's make it. Let's
1:11:15
keep going. Yeah.
1:11:19
A lot of people really like the idea. I don't
1:11:21
see anything wrong with it if you're a restaurant. Right.
1:11:24
You know, sorry. No
1:11:26
kids. This...
1:11:32
Oh, by the way, I think this is
1:11:34
wonderful. It's another reason I love the United
1:11:36
States Postal System. I'll have...
1:11:38
I'm seeing my neighbor, Jeff, tonight. He'll tell me what's wrong
1:11:40
with it. He loves to tell me what's wrong with the
1:11:42
post office. And then I go, have you ever... Has a
1:11:45
male ever been lost, Jeff? No, it
1:11:47
hasn't. No. Even when I wished
1:11:49
male had gotten lost. Exactly. To me,
1:11:51
it didn't. The long time
1:11:53
host of Jeopardy, Alex Trebek, is now
1:11:56
honored with the U.S. Postal stamp. Wonderful.
1:11:58
Answer, who is eligible? That's right,
1:12:00
he'll be, he gets a forever stamp to
1:12:02
celebrate his legacy and the show's 60
1:12:05
diamond anniversary.
1:12:08
The stamp says, this
1:12:10
naturalized US citizen, because he's what? Canadian.
1:12:15
This naturalized US citizen hosted the quiz show
1:12:17
Jeopardy for 37 seasons. Underneath
1:12:20
written upside down is the correct response,
1:12:23
who is Alex Trebek? That's right. Yeah,
1:12:25
good for him. Wonderful. That's
1:12:27
a good thing. Maybe next time I go to the post
1:12:29
office and get yelled at by the post office ladies for
1:12:31
not picking up my shit out of the post office box,
1:12:33
I'll buy some Alex Trebek stamps. This
1:12:36
I don't know how much taller people can get, but
1:12:39
this is nuts. This is
1:12:41
crazy. Oliver
1:12:43
Rue makes
1:12:46
Zach Eddy, these are basketball players, look
1:12:48
like Mugsy Bogues. Mugsy was the shortest
1:12:50
guy ever. He was like 5'2 or
1:12:52
some shit. He was great.
1:12:55
I always rooted him on. He was so, so tiny. He made
1:12:57
it to the pros and he was great. An
1:12:59
incoming Florida basketball freshman,
1:13:03
Oliver Rue has gone viral in recent
1:13:05
days after Internet sleuths discovered his bio
1:13:08
page on the school's athletic website,
1:13:11
list him at a staggering 7'9". That's
1:13:14
crazy. There's videos of it
1:13:16
online. I'll put it in his notes. I mean, it
1:13:19
literally looks like a tennis ball in his hand and
1:13:21
then he just goes like that. He just reaches over
1:13:23
and puts it in a bucket. It'd be like me
1:13:25
walking around with tennis balls and just putting them in
1:13:28
buckets. There, look, I scored again. I
1:13:30
scored again. I don't even know. Now
1:13:33
there was that one really tall skinny guy, Sean
1:13:35
Bradley. He was the Mormon guy and he went
1:13:37
off to do his thing and he
1:13:39
didn't ever beef up. So he didn't really, he did
1:13:42
okay, but he didn't turn into what
1:13:44
they thought. You can be tall if you're too skinny though.
1:13:47
You're going to get, you got to get, got to beef them up
1:13:50
even if you're that tall, but I don't know.
1:13:52
I mean, to the point where does it even matter
1:13:55
if he beefs beefs up? I mean, if
1:13:57
you're still, wow. He's
1:14:00
from Montreal, one of your
1:14:02
favorite places. The
1:14:04
height would make the Montreal native the tallest
1:14:07
college basketball player of all time, passing up
1:14:09
seven foot eight Florida Tech and Mountain State
1:14:11
Center, Paul Sturgis. He recently
1:14:13
entered the Guinness World Book of Records in 2002
1:14:15
as the tallest living male teenager. As
1:14:19
a child, he spent hours looking through his Guinness
1:14:21
World Book of Records, studying the tallest people and
1:14:23
comparing himself to the record holder. That
1:14:26
is something I never did with my, I mean.
1:14:28
In free time. He brought plenty of
1:14:31
eyes to his height and his proudness, just like other giants
1:14:33
before him. Yeah, he
1:14:35
is a giant, I mean, he's a giant. Perhaps
1:14:38
the most recognized skyscraper
1:14:41
is the late Manute Bowl, who I
1:14:43
did Conan O'Brien with one time. Oh,
1:14:46
cool. I got my picture taken with him and I look two
1:14:48
foot eight. You're kidding. Nope.
1:14:50
Nope. He was skinny, he was
1:14:53
seven foot six. Some say seven seven. Oh,
1:14:56
wow. Yep, he was playing division two in the
1:14:58
eighties before the Wizards. Lewis's
1:15:00
team drafted
1:15:03
him. He doesn't really follow
1:15:05
basketball because Baltimore, like Washington
1:15:07
did pro. Yeah, because he
1:15:09
loves college. University
1:15:11
of North Carolina, baby blue, baby. Ron
1:15:17
likes the lot of horns. Michael Jordan went there. All
1:15:19
right, Lou. Okay. Yeah.
1:15:25
This guy's ready to go. I
1:15:28
mean, wait till you see him. Seven foot nine.
1:15:31
He was six foot one as an eight year old. What?
1:15:38
Go to your room, smack. He could
1:15:40
literally pat me on the head and
1:15:42
then smack me. Yeah. He
1:15:45
joined the seven foot club. Yeah.
1:15:51
Six foot 11th and sixth grade and joined the seven
1:15:53
foot club before he entered seventh grade. Wow. Mm-hmm.
1:15:57
He's kind of cute too. Yep. Yeah.
1:16:00
Sometimes when everybody gets that tall, it starts looking weird. Yeah,
1:16:02
no, he's cute. All right. He's
1:16:05
going to be a ganger. Yeah.
1:16:09
I almost think it's cheating. But
1:16:12
I got in an elevator once in
1:16:14
Detroit. I was going to the show and
1:16:17
the door opened and it was Kevin Durant. Oh,
1:16:20
cool. Yeah. And I'm not the
1:16:22
biggest pro following, but I know Kevin Durant. And
1:16:24
I was like, hey man. I mean,
1:16:26
he's so, so, so tall. And
1:16:29
he was like, do you have plans
1:16:31
tonight? I said, yeah, I gotta work. I had
1:16:33
a show with the, whatever. What's
1:16:35
a theater? I can't think of it. The
1:16:38
Royal Oak. The Royal Oak, right. Royal
1:16:40
Oak. And he was like, well, I have some free tickets. I thought,
1:16:42
oh my God, he's trying to give away his comps. And
1:16:46
I'm like, I seriously would come.
1:16:48
He was so nice. I'm like, dude,
1:16:50
I would seriously come, but I really do have a
1:16:52
job. Like he doesn't know what I do for a
1:16:54
living. I'm like, I got a clock
1:16:56
in. I got a clock in by 5 30. And
1:16:59
he was like, okay. I think he thought I was just like,
1:17:01
I don't want to go to basketball, but I don't want to
1:17:03
say that. Of course I would go. And
1:17:06
he's for basically, I'll go, but yeah, he
1:17:08
was extremely nice. So sometimes you hear people
1:17:10
dog talking to him and I'm like, well,
1:17:12
I was a total stranger. Yep.
1:17:17
This is for, we're going to do this.
1:17:19
And then I got some thank yous. And then
1:17:22
our quote. Lucky
1:17:25
the Beaver appears to be
1:17:27
having a midlife crisis. The
1:17:30
42 year old mascot just debuted a
1:17:32
new slimmer looks and Texans are not
1:17:34
loving it. Oh,
1:17:36
I noticed that. Nobody wants
1:17:39
a skinny beaver. Beavers
1:17:41
are choppy. That's what they're supposed to be.
1:17:45
Fast food mascots come in every shape, size and personality, but
1:17:47
I like to see them with a little girth. Big
1:17:50
boy's belly isn't just his body type.
1:17:52
It's proof. That's the big boy.
1:17:54
Yeah. And then he goes through all the other one.
1:17:57
Yeah. Uh, yeah. Uh,
1:17:59
yeah. to the video because he's
1:18:01
felt now, why did
1:18:03
they do this to my beautiful boy? Oh
1:18:06
my gosh. Beavers
1:18:08
have been evolving in Texas for 15 million
1:18:10
years and the North American beaver,
1:18:13
Bucky, who's been evolving since 1982, they
1:18:16
loved him so much last year that
1:18:19
they named a fossil in his
1:18:21
honor, but they are not having this
1:18:23
person, but there's a lot of Bucky's. Why
1:18:26
is it just the Texas one? The one
1:18:28
in Tennessee isn't any skinnier. The
1:18:30
new ones are changing them. Oh. Oh.
1:18:36
The statue and stuff. Yeah. Here's,
1:18:39
oh no, I don't
1:18:41
know what I would think. I don't, they wear
1:18:43
the mascot outfits the same. They're
1:18:47
changing the outfit? Yeah,
1:18:49
it doesn't have a thing in it. Oh, the little
1:18:51
bottom part where he looks, kind
1:18:53
of a little fat ass. Yeah, and then the
1:18:55
bronze statue. The bronze statue's
1:18:58
chubby. Yeah, but it's getting smaller. Oh.
1:19:01
Yes, too. Well, I'm gonna have to look next time at Bucky's. Shout
1:19:05
out, thank you. These coasters, it's a
1:19:08
Madigan pup cast are awesome. That's
1:19:10
from Vicky, Vicky with a Y. The
1:19:13
peanuts, we got that soap rock and
1:19:15
some bath gel from Pennsylvania Termit Lin.
1:19:18
Laser pointers for geese removal. Whoever heard
1:19:20
of that? Gotta look at that. I
1:19:22
don't know, I'm gonna try it. There's an awful lot of them
1:19:24
though. I'm gonna have to get like eight of those if it
1:19:26
works. That's Charles
1:19:28
on a termite, Cindy and Danielle, and local
1:19:31
beards some cat treats, which is good, because I
1:19:33
was out of greenies when I returned. They
1:19:38
like temptations too though, so that was fine. I'm
1:19:41
not gonna feed them until they start to stop
1:19:43
letting other animals in the south. Something's getting weird.
1:19:45
That's from Jen and Aunt Lori, and
1:19:48
some cat toys from Termit, Melissa. All
1:19:51
right, so let's do our little quotes. Thanks
1:19:55
again to everybody who came out in West Virginia. I'm
1:19:58
in Maine, can't wait to see you guys. I have... Kelly McFarlane
1:20:00
with me. She's very,
1:20:02
very, very funny. Do not be late to the show.
1:20:06
All my shows, I always take pride in
1:20:08
who I book to
1:20:10
work with me and to open the show because they're
1:20:12
all headliners in their own right. And
1:20:16
she's one of the ones that I,
1:20:18
I actually, I always kind of stand side
1:20:20
sage and listen, but sometimes I, I
1:20:22
don't know, I get more excited to listen, for
1:20:25
instance. Kelly's just funny. This
1:20:28
is a Dolly quote. On
1:20:33
songwriting during an interview for the Oprah
1:20:35
magazine, God's like a
1:20:37
farmer. He gets up, throws
1:20:40
out all of these ideas like corn and
1:20:42
I want to be the early bird. Oh,
1:20:45
I never thought about that. Yeah, I got
1:20:47
to think about that. Are things happening in
1:20:49
the morning? Are
1:20:51
things happening in the morning?
1:20:54
No. Yeah. And they
1:20:56
on the today's show when they have a concert out there,
1:20:58
I'm like, nope. Hey, can
1:21:00
you come down at 7 30 and do 10 minutes? Nope.
1:21:04
Nope. I do not care. I am not getting
1:21:06
up at five to put hair, makeup. No. No,
1:21:08
there was a country singer on there this morning and I thought, what
1:21:10
time did you get out? And
1:21:12
Hoda and all those people are jacked up on
1:21:14
20 cups of coffee. We've
1:21:17
already had spaghetti. Like,
1:21:19
oh my God. This
1:21:25
is a,
1:21:30
this is on Twitter in 2014. She
1:21:33
wrote, Tay Tay wrote, good memories
1:21:35
can leave even more of a scar on your heart
1:21:38
than the bad times. Deep
1:21:42
thought. I don't know. Well,
1:21:45
what, see, this is where I get to leave real
1:21:47
logical. What do you classify as a good memory? And
1:21:49
then why is it a good one? If it's something
1:21:51
that's going to make you sad. I
1:21:53
would put it in the not good one unless it's like,
1:21:56
okay, good, but they died. You still
1:21:58
want those memories and they can make you sad. happy
1:22:00
at the same time. True that. True that.
1:22:02
Yep. Well here's
1:22:04
another one. This is on Tumblr. Does that
1:22:06
even exist anymore? Tumblr? I
1:22:08
don't know. We'll look it up. I
1:22:12
never participated in the first place. No. She
1:22:16
said, I've always said that the world is a
1:22:18
different place for the heartbroken that moves on
1:22:20
a different axis at a different speed. Time
1:22:23
skips backwards and forwards fleetingly.
1:22:25
The heartbroken might go
1:22:28
through a thousand micro-emotions a
1:22:30
day trying to figure out how to get through it. Sad
1:22:34
clown. Serious. Sad. Very
1:22:37
serious. Very serious.
1:22:40
Isn't that wonderful she's happy now? Yeah,
1:22:43
I'm so happy she's happy now. Good for
1:22:45
the whole family. Good for everybody. The world's
1:22:47
a different place. Where's
1:22:50
she going next? Where's
1:22:53
Tay Tay? Dublin.
1:22:55
Dublin. Oh and you know
1:22:57
what? I have a friend, I won't
1:22:59
say who, who may have some inside
1:23:02
information and I don't think this is necessarily a bad
1:23:04
thing to say out loud. I would not say it if I
1:23:06
thought it was something I shouldn't. Tay
1:23:08
Tay paid all
1:23:11
the people that are working on that crew. She paid
1:23:13
for their spouses to come over for a week.
1:23:15
So great. Boom. How
1:23:18
nice is that? And I don't know if I'm supposed
1:23:20
to say that so if I wasn't I didn't say
1:23:22
that. How about that? I didn't say shit about that
1:23:24
but how I know that is
1:23:26
a different set of circumstances
1:23:29
and once again shout out to Burt
1:23:31
Kreischer from my medal. I want to wear it at
1:23:34
Christmas and see if anybody says anything. Just
1:23:36
to watch my brother go why the fuck do
1:23:39
you have a giant medal around you? It's
1:23:41
so heavy
1:23:44
my neck actually hurts. I've been around for
1:23:46
what an hour plus and it's like, all
1:23:49
right that's it we got a little fire and bye bye. You
