1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: So if a politician disappears or deviates from the norm, 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: what right do we as taxpayers have to know about it? 3 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 2: Well, if they disappear, sometimes, at least historically, trend showed 4 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 2: that it does raise questions about where they were and 5 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 2: what they were doing and who paid for it. 6 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: Right, So several little boxes we'll check here. First of all, Trump, 7 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: So there's an interesting article the Hill about a former 8 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: Biden aid by the name of Megan Hayes. She went 9 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: on yesterday Labor Day. She was on CNN and she 10 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: was talking about sort of the lack of public appearances 11 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: from Trump, and she's basically saying that the administration is 12 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: not being transparent about what's going on with him. 13 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, she said that he appeared what in twenty six 14 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: public appearances in August, but has gone silent for six 15 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 2: plus days except for some truth social post. 16 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: Now, he did play the golf, right, he did go 17 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: play the golf. But I don't think that's necessarily unfair 18 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: to say. If you're the president, especially if you ran 19 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: against a guy who you nicknamed Sleepy Joe and they're 20 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,559 Speaker 1: not telling you the truth, I don't think that's unfair 21 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: to say something appears to be off from the normal 22 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: look at me way Trump engages with everything, and the 23 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: public should probably be allowed to know why that is 24 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: and why we've seen such a change in terms of 25 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: his lack of public appearances, lack of public engagement. I 26 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: don't think that makes you a gotcha person. I don't 27 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: think it's gotcha journalism. I don't think it makes you 28 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: never Trumper. I don't think it makes you having TDS. 29 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: I just think if somebody, certainly to the level of 30 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: the president, essentially disappears from the public eye for a 31 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: period of time, the public has a right to know. 32 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 2: And then he calls for this Oval office announcement at 33 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: two o'clock today, and it has a lot of people 34 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: speculating on what he's going to be talking about, going 35 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 2: to be Chicago or tariffs or his health. It has 36 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 2: been announced by his press secretary that it will be 37 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 2: in regards to the Department of Defense. Now he wants 38 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 2: to rename it back to Department of War, so it 39 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 2: could be about that. 40 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: Now. 41 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 2: Here's the thing though, with Trump disappearing. Donald Trump doesn't 42 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 2: do anything by accident. Sure, I believe that this is intentional, 43 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: because he drives the conversation consistently. He moves the ball, 44 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: changes the game. That's what he does. And if he 45 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,279 Speaker 2: wanted to take a pause in conversation, he is intentionally 46 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: pulling back so that at two o'clock today people will 47 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 2: be listening. He is resetting the news cycle, get through 48 00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,679 Speaker 2: the Labor Day holiday weekend. It's by all accounts Monday, 49 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 2: although it's Tuesday, two o'clock. He's going to reintroduce what 50 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,119 Speaker 2: is important to him for the rest of the year. 51 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: Okay, but you think Trump can stand going five or 52 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: six days and not being the center of attention. I mean, 53 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: on a dispute, like with the normal person, I would say, Okay, 54 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 1: that makes sense, But it's Trump. He can't. He cannot 55 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: be the center of attention for ten seconds. 56 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: Right, So that makes me believe even more that's intentional. 57 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: He did that on purpose because he's not even doing 58 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 2: the cafafe. 59 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: You know, what's he doing? Just hanging out of the 60 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: White House, just eating cheeseburgers, watching college football. Like, what 61 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: do you think he's been doing the past six seven days? 62 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: Whatever it's been. 63 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: Well, there was rumors that Malaney was spotted at Walter Reed. 64 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 2: He did play golf, right, so maybe he was just 65 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: taking it easy, getting everything in order to reset kind 66 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 2: of the rest of the year his agenda. 67 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: Hey, look, I hope you're right. I hope there's certainly 68 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with Trump. I hope he's in great hell. 69 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: I just I think it's the behavior is a little 70 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: bit bizarre. And I think when you're what is he 71 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: seventy eight or seventy nine years old, and you've clearly 72 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: got some health issues. Now, I don't think anything that 73 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: people think is going to put him in a box 74 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: within the next you know, six to eight weeks. 75 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 2: Well, we know he has that chronic venus right deficiency, right, 76 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: and the bruising they said was a side effect from 77 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 2: the aspirin that he's taking. 78 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't I don't know. I just think I 79 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: don't think it makes you a horrible person for having 80 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: some level of concern about this morning. No, you're where 81 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: I mean, because look at like what we've had here locally, 82 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: where the Secretary of State disappears, Deo Morales disappears to 83 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: we don't know where, and he's gone for ten days, 84 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: and then it turns out he's on this mysterious trip 85 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: to India with the guy with the that's selling the 86 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: visa access and the venture capitalist. And I think if 87 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: you're a public official and you're not going to be 88 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: if you're you're not going to be seen or being heard. 89 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: Because the whole thing about like Diego needing the car 90 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: was I go to all ninety two counties. I'm traveling everywhere. 91 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: I need to be seen. I need to be out there, 92 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: and then you just aren't seen. Then I think you 93 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: have the right to know, because I think that's a 94 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: red flag. I think it's the same thing with the 95 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: lieutenant governor who going back, the last known sighting I 96 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: can see of him as August the twenty. 97 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: Fourth, where is the lieutenant governor? 98 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,679 Speaker 1: Now, somebody messaged me and said he was in Poland. 99 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: I don't recall a big announcement saying he was going 100 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: to Poland. I don't recall a big thing about here's 101 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: what I'm doing for the state in Poland. Sure, And 102 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: if you're not doing something for the state as lieutenant governor, 103 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: then why are we paying you a salary to be 104 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: the lieutenant governor? If you're gonna I mean, what is 105 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,239 Speaker 1: that that's thirty first, that's eight days, nine days, whatever 106 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: that is? Now Okay, But I think, like the foreign 107 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: country stuff trips. 108 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,799 Speaker 2: It's what's he doing. Is he just on a vacation. 109 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: I don't know, taking a few days off. 110 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: I have no idea if that's even true. I've just 111 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: told by multiple people he was in Poland, which again 112 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: I think that's a little odd for a guy who 113 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: can't stand to not be seen for seven seconds, to 114 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: just disappear and then not tell anybody. I mean, it's 115 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: clear the poster being made of you know, they're not 116 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: most of them have anything to do with him, which, okay, 117 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: you can go, but it's weird not to tell people 118 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: where you're at or what you're doing, or not have 119 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: a big announcement. And again it's totally out align with 120 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: the normal behavior. And we have our state officeholders taking 121 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: a lot of foreign trips, we do, but they're not 122 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: the governor. 123 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: What does that show you how irrelevant that position is? 124 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: Well, it is interesting too, And you and I were 125 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: talking about this that the guy has basically disappeared for 126 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: eight or nine days and no, it's not even a 127 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: news story. It's not anything, And it shows just how 128 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: irrelevant the position and he may actually because at least 129 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: with Diego it was news because you're like, this is 130 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: the secretary of State, he's in charge of elections, he's 131 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: in charge of businesses, he's got a budget. Hearing that 132 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 1: he's not showing that, people like where is this guy at, 133 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: and people trying to put the puzzle together. Lieutenant Governor 134 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: has been gone for eight or nine days and nobody 135 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: seems to care. So anyway, I just look, I think 136 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: with Trump, to bring this back to Trump, because he's 137 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: the one that really matters, is that when it's so 138 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: far out of the normal behavior, there probably ought to 139 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: be an explanation about it, because I think people are 140 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: and I don't think it's malicious. 141 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: I think it's that is something wrong, is something going right, and. 142 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: People have, especially at his age, concern there. I think 143 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: I hope you're right that he's doing some three D 144 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: chess with everyone. I just I'm not sure Trump has 145 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: that anything to just disappear for several days. Well. 146 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: I think the thing that makes people question it even 147 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: more is the fact that Jade Vance did that exclusive 148 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 2: interview with USA today and he said that he was 149 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: ready to take over and lead if needed, and that 150 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: just kind of adds fuel to the fire. He did 151 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 2: say of God forbid, there's something happens. 152 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: It wasn't even like he was like next week, I'm 153 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: ready to go. Put me in coach. 154 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 2: Right. But Donald Trump has been saying that he's never 155 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 2: felt better, and Eric Trump said that any speculation is 156 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: I'm sick and twisted. It's left wing propaganda. 157 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: Well, and he was on the golf course. I don't 158 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: think if you're on death's door you're going to get 159 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: in a quick nine. 160 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 2: But that shows you, though that Donald Trump has in 161 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: a sense trained us to expect things from him on 162 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 2: a daily basis. 163 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: Well, it comes back to we talked about in the 164 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: first hour the conversation I had with the magician over 165 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: the weekend where he was like in Magic bartended this 166 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: event for you're just tuning in over the weekend, and 167 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: they also had a magician there as the entertainment. And 168 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: I was talking to this magician and you know, I 169 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: was talking about like, are there tricks that amaze you, 170 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: et cetera. And he said the trick is irrelevant. Now 171 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: he said, I know a lot of really good magicians 172 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: who do amazing work who can't get past doing people's 173 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: birthday parties because they're boring. And he said I know 174 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: a lot of magicians that aren't really very good that 175 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: do big corporate events, et cetera, because they're super entertaining. 176 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: And that's where we're sort of at with the politics now, 177 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: where people don't pay attention to good public policy. It's 178 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: why guys like Thomas Massey struggle. They're boring. That's why 179 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: people like Ran Paul struggle. They're boring. They have great ideas, 180 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: they create great public policy, they make great points, they're boring. 181 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: People have a you know, the ten second attention span, 182 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: and that's you to bring it to your point. Trump 183 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: has been the master of continually just owning the news 184 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 1: cycle because he can never get enough of himself. And 185 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: that's why this is a red flag that it just 186 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: seems out of touch that for a period the guy 187 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: just suddenly doesn't want to be seen or heard from. 188 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 2: Well, this will be his first on camera remark in 189 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: a week, and by being quiet, he's now owning the news. 190 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. 191 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it really it's going to have something 192 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: to do with the Department of Defense, and he has 193 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 2: been wanting to rename it to the Department of War. 194 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 2: But it is Donald Trump, So you know he's going 195 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: to mention whatever is on his mind in the moment, 196 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: and that may include Chicago sending the National Guard there, 197 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: or tariffs or the meeting that Gee and Putin and 198 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 2: Mody all had together. I mean, who knows what he's 199 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 2: going to say, but because he's been quiet, everybody will 200 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 2: be listening. Yeah, you're right, it won't get lost in 201 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 2: the shuffle. 202 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: You're right. 203 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 2: It is Kendall and Casey.

Yeah, and new podcast drops later today. 220 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 2: Fantastic. 221 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: What are we doing? 222 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 3: I like you. 223 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: I like that you're prepping on my time. 224 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 3: Hey. 225 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of college football, can we quickly 226 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: discuss what happened to Notre Dame? Did you want you? 227 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: Were you bartending that game? I watched most of the 228 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 1: second half. I got home for a lot of the 229 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: second half. I think Notre Dame's well, they turned the 230 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,599 Speaker 1: ball over twice. I say, I don't think that. I 231 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: don't think it's panic mode time. Because you lost to 232 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 1: a top ten team on the road by a field goal. 233 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: They came back tied the game. 234 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: I did come back. Oh man. 235 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: The couple things I would say, One the two turnovers, 236 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: that's not going to work. And two, their offensive and 237 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,599 Speaker 1: defensive lines were extremely disappointing, and that was supposed to 238 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: be the strength of the team. And if they don't 239 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: get that figured out, then they might as well just 240 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: pack it up and head of the Pop Tart Bowl. 241 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 2: So they're off this weekend, I believe, so they've got 242 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 2: some time to watch and see what went wrong, what 243 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: they did. But for me, that's such a disappointment when 244 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 2: your team loses on the first week because like, you 245 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 2: got to win out the rest of the season. 246 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: Well, I think ten and two, if you're Notre Dame 247 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: with that scheduled, probably get you in. So but we 248 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: all know Notre Dame will lose to one obscure directional 249 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: school like they do every year. So yeah, I just 250 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just kind of had a feeling 251 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: about this year. It's so hard to bounce back. Like 252 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: I said, I think people are it's an overcorrection. People 253 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: are Week two is always over correction week with anything. 254 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: So people will be freaking out about that. They'll be fine. 255 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 1: I think they'll be right about that. Ten and two 256 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: mark and everybody just calm down and have a good time. 257 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 2: So I was watching all of the pregame stuff with 258 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 2: an Ohio State fan, and every TV in the house 259 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 2: was turned on to the college game Day and Lee Corso, 260 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 2: of course, Lee Corso said, see ya, you've. 261 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 1: Got one last head here to make all right, this 262 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: is one. This is one of the easiest fix I've 263 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: ever made. Texas is lowered. Texas is number one. They 264 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: haven't manny quarterback pour, oh, Harve state, they got test 265 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,599 Speaker 1: give me my first love. There come. 266 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 2: Of course Lee Corso putting on the brutus head. You 267 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 2: know what's buys. 268 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: You know what's interesting is somebody told me this when 269 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 1: I was younger, and it's absolute, truly the older I get, 270 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: you never really fully appreciate things that you have in 271 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,719 Speaker 1: the moment, even if you're a person who is very 272 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 1: cog in a son of history and thing like. No 273 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: matter how much you appreciate something, you with very very exceptions, 274 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: you never fully appreciate things in the moment until you 275 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: don't have them anymore. And like I was, of course 276 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,199 Speaker 1: people were. Lee Corso was the former coach at IU 277 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: other places, football coach at IU in other places. He 278 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: then became most famous as being, you know, an analyst 279 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: for ESPN and Lee Corso. Again, I assume most people 280 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: know this, but you don't. Sort of his shtick was 281 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: at the pregame show, they would pick a game, there 282 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: would be a big build up. He would go through 283 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: both teams and then he would pull one of the 284 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: team's mascot's heads out and put it on his own head. 285 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: And that so he'd be picked for the game and 286 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: it was a It was a huge, huge thing. And 287 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: I was watching one of the old videos of Lee 288 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: Courses doing picks and they were at Texas Tech. Texas 289 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: was playing Texas Tech and Bob Knight was the coach 290 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: at Texas Tech, and those two guys were just on 291 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: their shooting the breeze with each other, and it's like, dang, 292 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: you know not, does I think Lee Corsos had some 293 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: health challenges, et cetera, which is why he's they they've 294 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: decided to pack it up with him. But it's just 295 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: like like all the people that have passed away recently, 296 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: you think of all whether it's Hull Kogan or Ozzy 297 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: Osbourne or whoever. It's just like you never fully embrace 298 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: greatness or great things in the moment, and then you're 299 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: always just kind of left to reflect on him afterwards 300 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: and go, Wow, that was special. I wish I would 301 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: have enjoyed it more. 302 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, they wanted it to wrap up at the 303 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 2: end of last season. They said, no, we're going to 304 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 2: have you back for one more game. Something new that 305 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 2: was introduced this weekend, the IU Bison. This is this 306 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 2: guy Hoosier made it made an entrance. 307 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: Uh, what it was parashuted in or paraglided, whatever you 308 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: want to call that. It was the mascot, and then 309 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: they brought it, took it away, and they brought it back, 310 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: then brought it back to sell merch. Right to sell 311 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: merch seems like it what do you have to get 312 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: a new like my current IU sweater doesn't work because 313 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: they didn't have the Bison on it. O. GK, you're 314 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: so out of style. It just says Indiana on it. 315 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 2: He entered the stadium, I believe it was Enter Sandman 316 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 2: was the music that was playing, Oh good Creed And 317 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 2: I kept thinking, no, wait, that's another school already uses. Yeah, 318 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: well take a different song, you know. 319 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: I you the football team has always taken a backseat 320 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: to basketball, and now, especially with the success that they 321 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: had last year, I think they want to kind of 322 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: try to make it feel special, right, So they rolled 323 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: this by the way. 324 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 2: It was a cool entrance. 325 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: The new Notre Dame logo didn't do too well, did it? 326 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 2: No? I did nothing. 327 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: We warned him, right, didn't We warned him last week? 328 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 2: He should have learned from Cracker Bear go change in it. 329 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: So they changed the Notre Dame logo from the Irish guy, 330 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: the Leprechaun with the fighting fists. 331 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 2: Yeah to now he's carrying a football. 332 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: Which is stupid. It looks stupid. Just another example of 333 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: don't touch things. Right, if it ain't broke, don't touch it. 334 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about how in another state they're considering 335 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 2: pay per mile fees for electric vehicles. This because they're 336 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 2: not getting their money off the gas tax. 337 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: This is fascinating. 338 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 2: This is an Oregon, yes, but this is fascic. 339 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: So Oregon is a super liberal state, and they obviously 340 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: are one of the numerous lefty states. And I mean 341 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: even the Republican states have done this. And The Hill, 342 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: by the way, had the article, amongst other people that 343 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: have strongly encouraged people, you got to get electric, you 344 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: got to save the planet. You got to do this 345 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: for the country and for the earth, and blah blah blah. Well, 346 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: now these wizards of smart have figured out, oh crap, 347 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: if a lot of our money we're getting is off 348 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 1: taxes on gasoline and people gas. So now they're coming 349 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: for the electric people, who they just begged and pleaded. 350 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: You're doing this great thing for humanity by buying these 351 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: electric cars to save the planet. And now they're looking 352 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: at putting a variety of different fees on these electric 353 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: vehicle people. Which that's the laughable thing to me, because 354 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 1: we're seeing this with the solar panel people with the 355 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: property tax reform bill here in Indiana. Jacob Stewart, who's 356 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: our buddy from the Indie Star who comes on our 357 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 1: show every so often, said, you know, he's getting screwed 358 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: because he's got the solar panels on his house and 359 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: they're doing all sorts of alterations to the solar stuff. 360 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,239 Speaker 1: If you do anything because the government tells you to, 361 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: or you think you're gonna get some sort of long 362 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: term benefit because you're helping society, the government will always 363 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: screw you. They will always go back on their word, 364 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: and they will always find a way to get their money. 365 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: And if you believe them, then I've got some nice 366 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 1: swamp land I'd like to sell to you in the 367 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: they're in New Jersey. 368 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 2: So in Oregon, they're trying to fill a three hundred 369 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 2: million dollar hole in the state's transportation budget, which is 370 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 2: used for their road repairs or snow plowing. And of 371 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 2: course they used to use money from the gas tax, 372 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 2: which they just don't have enough of that anymore. Hawaii 373 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 2: is another state that does this. Makes you pay per. 374 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: Mile, Yeah, you could get you'd either pay about two 375 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: point three cents per mile or choose an annual flat 376 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: flat fee of three hundred and forty dollars. So if 377 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: you think you're going to be under the three hundred 378 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:33,959 Speaker 1: and forty threshold, you can do that. And I think 379 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: you get capped at the three forty. 380 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 2: And they have to go check your mileage, see how 381 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 2: far you drive every year. 382 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 1: And they're raising their gas tax too, so are they. 383 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: Well it just shows you these states. I mean, we've 384 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: had this conversation before. Government is run by morons, and 385 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: the best and the brightest amongst us don't go into 386 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: government because they're out producing, and so you have very 387 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: oftentimes uncreated people who they're just default is what's the 388 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: easiest thing for me to do? What's the easiest thing 389 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: for me to do? And that's what I'll do. 390 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: It is Kendall Lee Casey.

Yeah, and it's. 436 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 2: Sleep through the night. 437 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: And I've told you she's entered the phase of her existence. 438 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,479 Speaker 1: She's very smart, and she's entered the phase of her 439 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: existence where she she processes. I don't know if it's 440 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: subconsciously or not, but she's able processing. This is the 441 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: extent to which I can be punished. Okay, no matter 442 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 1: what I do to them, they can't do it back 443 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: to me. And so everything there's like a decision. You 444 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: can see the wheels turning when she's told no on something. Okay, 445 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: here's the max punishment? Is this thing worth the max punishment? 446 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: And if it is, she's just going to do it 447 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: and you go be able to stop her. So but 448 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: I found if I wear her out, you know, the 449 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 1: more she's outside, she doesn't technically behave better. She's outside, 450 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: she can't do any damage. So we spent a lot 451 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 1: of time outside. 452 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 2: That's good though. 453 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 1: And then we went to see some friends for dinner 454 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: last night and she was very well behaved until the end, 455 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: and then the sleepy monster hit her, so we had 456 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: to retreat.

So my flight was supposed to leave. 466 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 2: I was supposed to board at five point fifteen and 467 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 2: leave at five forty five and get to Baltimore by 468 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 2: quarter after seven. Perfect, right, Well, the plane that was 469 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 2: taking me to Baltimore was late getting here, so it 470 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 2: was like it was flying in from Baltimore and then 471 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 2: it was just going to turn around and fly back. 472 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: I gotcha show. 473 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 2: So that flight was delayed getting here. So that was 474 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 2: delay number one. And then as I'm at the Indianapolis Airport, 475 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 2: there is a huge group of eighth graders and there 476 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 2: we're all wearing matching bandanas and there. I mean, it's 477 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 2: just a huge group. And I originally was thinking, well, 478 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 2: this has got to be a group of kids going 479 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 2: to Washington, d c. For the eighth grade trip. But 480 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 2: then they lined up in front of the posts that 481 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 2: said going to Las Vegas, and a couple of us 482 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 2: kind of joke like what are all these eighth graders 483 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 2: going to Vegas for? And then you know it's southwest, 484 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 2: so you get your section A, B or C. Well, 485 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 2: I was in section A because I did the early 486 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 2: check in and all of these eighth graders lined up, 487 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 2: and then the guy comes on and he says, Okay, 488 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 2: we're gonna let these kids get on the plane first, 489 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: and everybody oh, because they were saying it's a pack flight. 490 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 2: There's going to be no room for your luggage. We're 491 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: looking for volunteers that will give us their carry on 492 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 2: so we can stow it underneath the plane. It was 493 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 2: just a jam pack flight. So then we get on 494 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 2: right and we pull away from the gate and we're 495 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 2: just sitting there, and then a few minutes later, the 496 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: pilot comes on and he says, oh, we've got some 497 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 2: valve that's not starting, so we're going to have to 498 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 2: go back to the gate. The mechanic's gonna see if 499 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 2: they can fix it. 500 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: So you were on the plane, sitting on the plane, 501 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: you could have been up in the air, could have 502 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: been up in the air. Can they tell you there's 503 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: a problem with the plane. 504 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 2: Problem with the plane, We're going back to the gate. 505 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 2: So we sat on that plane for forty five minutes 506 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 2: at the gate while the mechanic came on and they 507 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 2: did whatever they were going to do, and then the 508 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 2: pilot comes on and he says, this could take about 509 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 2: a half hour. If they can't fix it, we can 510 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 2: fix it manually. And I'm thinking, why. 511 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: Don't you just fix it manually? To begin? 512 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 2: Hello, not a whole lot of confidence I'm going on 513 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 2: this plane that you need a mechanic for. 514 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: I don't want you fixing anything manually. I want the finest, nicest, 515 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: most sturdy tools. See this is but this is the thing, Casey, 516 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,239 Speaker 1: And then I'll let you finish the story. Yeah, this 517 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: is what I always say. If I'm driving down the 518 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: road and there's a valve issue, I can pull off 519 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 1: to the nearest exit, right and if I got a call, 520 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: you know, insurance company or whatever that might telling you 521 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: know whatever, and I'll get it rectified. It might be frustrating, 522 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: it might not be ideal, but at least I'll be alive. 523 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: Exactly what if we'd got in the air, Oh there's 524 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: a valve issue, some valve thing. 525 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 2: So after we sat on the tarmac for forty five minutes, 526 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 2: keep in mind this plane is full of eighth grade boys. 527 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, yeah, they can be. 528 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 2: A little, a little sweaty, a little stinky from time 529 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 2: to time. They finally said, okay, where we we got 530 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 2: it fixed, We're going to take off. We're next in line. 531 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 2: We ended up taking off and the flight was fine, 532 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 2: no issues. But by the time I landed in Baltimore, 533 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 2: I could have driven there in the amount of time 534 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 2: that it. 535 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: Took without the valve, without the broken valve. Yeah, this 536 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: is this is why I don't get on the airplanes. 537 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: This is why I call the death to think about 538 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: the hell on earth you had to endure with all 539 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 1: those kids on that plane and you're just stuck there. 540 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: And I'm guessing this wasn't some seven forty seven you 541 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: were on, probably very tight seats. Probably did you have 542 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: some stranger next to you? Who you I had an 543 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: eighth grade boy next exactly. Yeah, why would you want 544 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: to do that to yourself? Why would you subject yourself 545 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: to that? You know who you're subjected to? You in 546 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: your car? Yourself? 547 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 3: Right? 548 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 2: Well, I was subjected to myself in the car yesterday 549 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 2: on the drive home, and. 550 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 1: I bet it was much more pleasant than those eighth 551 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: grade boys or worry about some valve issue, I know. 552 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 2: I mean, it really doesn't exude confidence, does it, Because 553 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 2: the whole time you're flying across the country. You're like, 554 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 2: is this thing going to break? 555 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 1: Exactly? I've told you, have I told you this. My 556 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: wife's new thing is she watches documentaries about disasters. 557 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 2: Oh great, she thinks about me. Well, in a plane. 558 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 1: It's horrible for me because you know, I have the 559 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: OCD and the claustrophobia and all all that stuff, right, 560 00:27:58,240 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: so it's just horrible for me. And she'll just sit 561 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: there and she'll chuckle while it's on, like because she 562 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 1: knows it's driving me insane. So that what's the thing 563 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: that sank the Titanic? Well, but the thing, the thing 564 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: that went down to see the Titanic submersible. Thank you. 565 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: She's obsessed with the submersial. We've watched like ninety two 566 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: documentaries on the submersible and every time like, why you're 567 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: not gonna learn anything else. It's just some guy, some 568 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: AI guy in a different accent, revealing the same information 569 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: to you as the last guy. You know how it's 570 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: going to end. It's not like they magically rise up 571 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: from the sea. Why are we watching another one? Anyway? 572 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,479 Speaker 1: We were watching some thing the other night on this 573 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: English flight in which the windshield wasn't secured properly, and 574 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: the window the glass like it blew out and the 575 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: pilot sucked all the was sucked halfway out of the plane. 576 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: And how some guy was holding onto the pilot while 577 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: the other copilot was trying to land the plane with 578 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: the guy halfway out of the plane. And I was 579 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: just like this is the worst. Then you're like, why 580 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: won't you It makes me sad that we can't fly 581 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,719 Speaker 1: and fly into another country, like why would I do that? 582 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: You're sitting to watching this thing about how the wind 583 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: the pilot got sucked out of the window. 584 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. I I was sitting there the whole time thinking 585 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,719 Speaker 2: I hate flying. I just I hate it. I hate it. 586 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 2: I hate it. Uh, it was nice. The one thing 587 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 2: that has improved in flying was the don't have to 588 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 2: take your shoes off ASA. That was nice. And I 589 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 2: did the thing. I don't know if you've seen these videos, 590 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 2: people will start, you know the song sweet Emotion from Aerosmith. 591 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: Uh huh. 592 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 2: So apparently if you start playing that song right when 593 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: you start going down the runway, the song kicks with 594 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 2: the vocals right when you take off. 595 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: Oh, because the runway is always the same distance. 596 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: And I put it to the test and it worked. 597 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: Oh did you have to pay for Wi Fi? 598 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:53,239 Speaker 2: No? I didn't pay for Wi Fi. 599 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: I just uslayer. 600 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and it worked. It works. So if you 601 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 2: see any of those videos of people playing sweet emotion 602 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 2: as they start to take off in an airplane, works 603 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 2: for me. 604 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: So are you done flying? Was this it for you? 605 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 2: I have to be going someplace that's that's really worthy. 606 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hell on earth. Like if I don't have time. 607 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 2: If I don't have the time to drive there, and 608 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 2: it's the only way it's going to happen. It's just 609 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: not a pleasurable exit. 610 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: It's not. Nothing about flying is pleasurable. Like it's like 611 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: your round strangers. 612 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 2: The guy across the aisle from me, he was he 613 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 2: was beside himself because he was actually flying from Indy 614 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 2: to Baltimore and he was connecting in Baltimore to go 615 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 2: on to New York. And he had like fifteen minutes 616 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 2: because the flight was delayed so long to get his 617 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 2: connecting flight in Baltimore, plus he had to change concourses. 618 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 2: He was older. He was like, I'm not gonna make it. 619 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 2: I'm not going to make it. 620 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: Wait wait wait, wait, wait wait wait. If you somebody 621 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: in the YouTube chat said, I would sleep with one 622 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: eye open tonight if I were you. Nah, she knew 623 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: what she signed up for when she married me. 624 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 2: This message for your wife. 625 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, we dated for several years. She knew exactly what 626 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: was going on. So the wait. They don't take into 627 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: the fact that we've got these connecting flights coming in, 628 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: so we've got to wait for this flight. They don't 629 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: do that at the air At the airport. If you're 630 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: I've never had a connecting flight, so I don't know. 631 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: Like if you're like, if you're that flight from Baltimore 632 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: to New York, they're not like, because there's a. 633 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 2: Connection, wait a little bit, but you know, and is 634 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 2: what happens you miss it? But then but then then 635 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 2: you're stuck in Baltimore. You either got to you know, 636 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 2: get get the money back. Runt of cars depends on 637 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 2: how good you challenge, how good of an argument. 638 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait, wait wait. If the airport screws up 639 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: and you don't get a connecting flight, they'll. 640 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 2: Rebook you baby to a later flight or the next day. 641 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,719 Speaker 2: Sometimes they'll put you up in a hotel. 642 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: They have to know where the flights are connecting from 643 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: don't they like, how many connecting flights could they be? 644 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: We've got like six of these we got to wait 645 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: on Baltimore. Were you're telling me they would just leave 646 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: without you? They do. I get if you miss your pliny, 647 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: like you oversleep or you can't get to the airport 648 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: on time or whatever. I get that. But if there's 649 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: an actual flight that they know is people are enjoying. 650 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 2: The airlines problem. 651 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: And they leave you, Yeah, they could, Yeah, I know. 652 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 2: And that was like, I am not spending the night 653 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 2: in Baltimore. And I was like, hey, what's wrong with Baltimore. 654 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: It's only number three and highest crime in the country. 655 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: And they can legally do that even though you bought 656 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: the connecting flight. Right when you buy the flight, you 657 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: buy and it says you're getting on this one and 658 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: then you're going to this one.

Okay, well, I've heard this my 678 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 1: entire life. Yeah, and I've never understood where or why. 679 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: I guess modern era unless you're talking like brain surgery. 680 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 1: If you don't know something, it's just you're too lazy 681 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: to look. 682 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 2: It up, right, But you could just sit there wondering 683 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:09,399 Speaker 2: for sure. 684 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: Whatever, Right, I mean, that's really remember how it used 685 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: to be, where if you didn't know something, you get 686 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: into like a spirited debate with people and it could 687 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: go on for years. Right now, you have no excuse, 688 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: you just look it up. 689 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 2: That happened quite a few times to me over the weekend. 690 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 2: Somebody would ask something and I said, well, we can 691 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 2: sit here and wonder forever, or we can just get 692 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,240 Speaker 2: on our phone and look up the answer. 693 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: Okay, so this is a big one where Labor Day 694 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: was yesterday, and there's an old saying you don't wear 695 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:41,320 Speaker 1: white after labor Day? Correct, And I've always wondered, why. 696 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 2: Where did that originate? 697 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: Is it even a real thing? Who made that up? 698 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: Why society incorporated that as a saying? And you have 699 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: found the answer. 700 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 2: I have found the answer. So this goes back to 701 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: the same period that'd actually spawned Labor Day. So it 702 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 2: goes back to the Guilded Age. And you may have 703 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 2: seen this, most likely in paintings or in movies. But 704 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 2: the wealthy New York type people during the Gilded Age, 705 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 2: when they would summer in their places like Newport, Rhode Island, 706 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 2: they would wear these cool white frocks. They didn't really 707 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 2: wear bathing city. 708 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: It's a frock a sun dress. 709 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 2: Oh okay, only a pantaloon English, You know, a pantaloon. 710 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 2: I would cover their bodies, right, So. 711 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 1: I don't know what is a pantaloon. What is it. 712 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: It's like you're using the phrase you must know what it. 713 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 2: Is nickers that go down to your ankle. 714 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: Oh, I got you? Okay, very good. 715 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 2: So they would wear these cool white clothing right on 716 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 2: the beach when they would summer. But after Labor Day, 717 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 2: the season would be over. They would return to the city, 718 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 2: so they would pack up all of these white clothing 719 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 2: items and then not wear them again until the next year. 720 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 2: So that's where the adage of don't wear white after 721 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 2: Labor Day came from. However, there are a lot of 722 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 2: people who have broken the mold, including Coco Chanel. She said, no, 723 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 2: you can wear white whenever you want. So it's kind 724 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 2: of like, yeah, it's up to the person to decide. 725 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, is it a weird too? How when I 726 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: was growing up, and I know you're a little more 727 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:25,919 Speaker 1: seasoned than me, so just same for you. Labor Day 728 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: was like everything evolved around Labor Day, like that was 729 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: the end of summer, you know, the schools getting in 730 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: school right right, Yeah, there was even the happenings. I 731 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 1: think had a song will I See you in September 732 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: or lose you to a summer love? Yes? And now 733 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: school starts in July before Labor Day for many of 734 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: these year round school people. And there almost is no 735 00:36:56,080 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: really defined summer because the school goes for so long 736 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 1: now and what was once three months is maybe a 737 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: month and a half. Yeah, and that's really not even 738 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: enough to get into any sort of trouble because well, 739 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 1: I mean, like your summer, you're so you were very 740 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: well behaved of course as a as a teenager. So 741 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: for those of us who work, your summer was really 742 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 1: like played out into three parts. The first part was plotting. 743 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: It was like a movie almost in the sense of 744 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: here's where I'm gonna go, here's my goal for the summer. 745 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,720 Speaker 1: My goal is to make bad choices with that girl. 746 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: And I got because the summer before the internet, no 747 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:40,919 Speaker 1: one knew it took place in the summer. This is true. 748 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: You could, you could deny it. You could out kick 749 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 1: your coverage in the summer, because the girl could always 750 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:47,240 Speaker 1: deny that it ever happened. 751 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 2: Sure, unless you were whispering something on your princess phone 752 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 2: to your friends, well or what your princess phone. Oh 753 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 2: it was the style of telephone. Oh, believe it or not, 754 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 2: you actually had styles of telephone. 755 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, no, no, but I'm saying like you had as 756 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: a guy, you know, you basically had very if you 757 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,240 Speaker 1: were with the girl that was was out kicking your coverage. 758 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: There were very strict ground rules laid out, like if 759 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 1: you tell people about this, I will just cut it off. 760 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: So how long do you want this little endeavor to 761 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: So your first part of the act was figuring out 762 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: how you were going to do this, and then the 763 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: second part, the second month, month two, was the main doing. 764 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 2: It was the doing of the thing and the execution. 765 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,399 Speaker 1: And then the third month was basically the winding down 766 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 1: of you know, this thing is going to end, and 767 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: you really can't tell anybody that it happened, because there 768 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: was part of you who believed, well, maybe it'll happen 769 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: again next summer, and if you tell anybody then it 770 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: just it will never happen on that game off.

Case, they have ruined the summer every thing. 777 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 2: But do you think a lot of people enjoy having 778 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 2: the longer break during the holidays, during Christmas and then 779 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 2: spring break? 780 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: What sort of trouble can you get into? 781 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 2: And Christmas right, it's too cold to get into. 782 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 1: People leave, They're gone. 783 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 2: No, you'd rather longer summer. 784 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: Just like everything else in our society.
