00:00:08 Speaker 1: And I invited you here, thought I made myself perfectly clear. 00:00:17 Speaker 2: But you're a guest in my home. 00:00:21 Speaker 1: You gotta come to me empty, And I said, no, guests. Your presences presents enough. I already had too much stuff. So how did you dant to surbey me? 00:00:47 Speaker 3: Welcome to I said, no gifts. I'm Richard Wineger. Here we are. It's the beginning of the podcast. I'm entering into the eighth hour of Zoom for the day. My face it feels burned from the computer screen at this point, and so who cares. I hope you're having a nice day. I hope you're having a nice time. And we're just gonna get into the podcast. I'm not gonna sit here and complain about staring at a computer screen for eight hours. I'd rather talk to the guests. The guest is so lovely, so funny. It's Frankie kenyontez Oh. 00:01:26 Speaker 2: Thanks for having me, Bridgie. How are you? You know? I'm good, thanks for getting better, and I mean the world's still kind of weird, but I guess less weird, but yeah, yeah, I'm good overall. 00:01:37 Speaker 3: What have you been up to? 00:01:39 Speaker 2: Well, we just finished filming a Hulu show last Thursday, So that was pretty much just my whole life for the last three months. But yeah, super excited about that. And then just been recording this scripted podcast The Frankie, you know, on the show that I've been working on, and then you know, trying to spend time with my girl now and kick it with my family and you know, catch up with everybody, and then just you know, trying to stay positive. 00:02:05 Speaker 3: Yeah you were you were doing the show with Chris Estrata, who has been on the show before. Is such a funny person. 00:02:12 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's that's a good homie of mine. Yeah, he's a good dude. 00:02:16 Speaker 3: You guys were shooting in Los Angeles. Yeah, correct, What was that like? What was the experience like? Oh? 00:02:23 Speaker 2: Man, it was it was like a dream come true. You know, I've known Chris a long time since he started comedy and then we've been touring together for years, and he had been working on this show a long time, and you know, I always believed in it, I told him, and you did it with the corporate guy. So I've also known for a decade and it was just cool to see it all come together. And then Fred Armison stepped on and and then yeah, just things just worked out where they really didn't have me in mind for this role, but then they had me start reading for it, and then it kind of we kind of reinvented the character it's based off Chris is real live in his family, and and then yeah, just it just worked out. And then they, you know, they pushed for me and the network gave the green light and I got the part and then we just got right to work. It was an exciting time. 00:03:11 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you were in the show. You're playing Chris's cousin. Yeah, Luis, did you base it all your performance on anyone? 00:03:20 Speaker 2: You know? 00:03:21 Speaker 3: Do you have cousins in your life? 00:03:22 Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, I got a lot of cousins. What's your cousin's situation? 00:03:27 Speaker 3: Oh? 00:03:27 Speaker 2: Man, I mean there's well, you know, I have one cousin, his nicknamed Sonic, and him and his mom used to live with me, and so he's kind of like my brother. But a lot of my cousins were kind of close in age, and so we were all like pretty close, you know what I mean, And some were Luckily I'm grateful that a lot of them they were kind of running around the streets. You know, you know, some some were straight up gang banging and then out of jail this and that, but they had like once they started having kids, they slowly grew out of that and luckily survived and made it out. And you know, I'm proud to say that a lot of them are just hard workers now providing for their family. And you know, they're they still got that kind of tough guy vibe, but but they're they're mostly just all about their family now and it's it's a cool, cool thing to see. But I draw a lot of material from there, for sure. 00:04:17 Speaker 3: I have a ton of cousins as well. I have cousins I love dearly and like, but also cousins I find extremely annoying. Do you have any annoying cousins? 00:04:26 Speaker 2: Oh? Of course, Ridgard, come on, man, Yeah, but. 00:04:29 Speaker 3: That's what I want to hear about. Yeah, I don't want to hear about cousins doing well. I want to hear about annoying cousins. 00:04:36 Speaker 2: Right a fucker. You're talking about my Bridger show, you know. Yeah, I'm like, no, you listen to Bridging with the fun. But I got man, I got some uncles and cousins are just like you know, they're they just it's like a switch goes off, but they have too much a drink, you know that they're just like the classic and then they want to relive their old days and it's just say shut up, man, like we're here right now, like come on. And then I don't know, there's always some kind of family beef going on about some dumb shit like oh, you stole me seventeen dollars from our Chucky cheese trip seventeen years ago. You know, it's like just fucking shut up, like Grandpa's here, you know, let them have people like, let them be at peace, right And are you? 00:05:21 Speaker 3: Are you from LA originally. 00:05:23 Speaker 2: Originally from the San Fernando Valley, Yeah, from LA, but I mostly grew up in Ventura County, which is like about an hour north. 00:05:29 Speaker 3: So most of your family is around here. 00:05:31 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. My family in LA is mostly in a like in San Fernando and Pacoima, the city of Pacoyma and then and then a lot of family in the city of Oxnard, which is a Venture County. Then I got a bunch of family in a you know, Orange County, Santa Ana area, Riverside County, like you know, we get out there man. And then I got a bunch of family in Indian Reservation in Texas that's on my mom's side. 00:05:55 Speaker 3: Oh wow, So you're basically just surrounded by family. They're inescapable. 00:05:58 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, there's no getting away. 00:06:00 Speaker 3: I mean. 00:06:00 Speaker 2: And now with you know, comedy, it's it's going good. I mean, you know, it's I've been doing it for sixteen years. But once I started getting some success at it in touring in places, I meet new cousins. Oh of course, yeah, which, God bless them. I haven't puffed up. No, I'm you know, I'm Linda's cousins, brothers, And I'm like, oh, okay, that's what's up. 00:06:21 Speaker 1: Man. 00:06:21 Speaker 3: You know, where were you when I wasn't successful? Oh here's a question. Have you ever had a shamrock shake? 00:06:32 Speaker 2: Now? I can't say I have? What is it? Look? I was. 00:06:35 Speaker 3: I went over to McDonald's to get a diet coke earlier, and I see this thing once a year. It's some sort of mint milkshake for Saint Patrick's Day every year McDonald's. Yeah, at McDonald's. Okay, people rave about this thing. I've never had one, but once a year I see the posters. I see the pictures, I think, should I try it? And of course this episode will probably air after it's gone out of stores. So I mean, if listeners like that thing, I'm sorry to remind you now that it exists, but I was hoping that you would say, yes, I've had it, it's good, or yes I've had it it's bad. It's this kind of mystery in my life that won't go away, and I don't know that I care to actually try it. So I don't know why, I why I'm even bringing it up. 00:07:18 Speaker 2: No, No, I mean the fact that we're kind of now I'm invested it in my mind now, Okay, I can't. I can't stop thinking about it, Like I feel like I feel like we need to try to stay bridger, like we're ready. 00:07:30 Speaker 3: Are you a big milkshake drinker? 00:07:32 Speaker 2: I do? 00:07:32 Speaker 3: I do love milkshakes, So where are you getting a milkshake? 00:07:36 Speaker 2: That's the thing is like I gotta pick. I gotta pick my spots now, the in and out. I like the in and out milkshake. But you know, I used to love the nasty Oreole ones from like Jack in the Box and all that. Sure, I'm in my forties now, home you know what I mean. 00:07:50 Speaker 3: So that can do some big car damage. 00:07:53 Speaker 2: It's a big commitment. Even fat Burger has a has an oriole shake in a it's just like it's I love it. It tastes delicious, but I'm out like like it's it's a rat for the rest of the day, Like I got gas. I'm fucking tossing and turning. I'm just I'm making noises, you know. But oh it was so good, right, it was worth it, right. 00:08:13 Speaker 3: Frankie, you're describing lactose intolerance. 00:08:16 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I got problems, olha for sure. 00:08:21 Speaker 3: Do you have any allergies or anything? 00:08:23 Speaker 2: You know what I feel like I do. It's funny that you say that, because when I was a kid, they thought I was lactose and tolerant, but I don't know. I didn't. We didn't. I didn't really have like good doctors or anything. So I think they were just like But then I started drinking milk like two years later, and I was fine. But I think I don't have any like allergies outies, Like no, you know, I could. I pretty much eat everything, you know what I mean, But I try to as I'm getting older, you know, I have to kick back on a lot of shit, just because because I didn't diagnose anything, just because I go through the things I was describing, you know. 00:08:52 Speaker 3: I mean speaking of the shamrock shake. Do you ever do you do anything to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day? I mean, yeah, it's okay if you don't. I certainly don't. 00:09:03 Speaker 2: I don't like planning anything out. But if if it's if it's something's happening, and you know, if a homies, hey we're at the bar Saint Patty's Day, like all right, it is crowded, what's up? All right, I'll you know, I try, I'll try to, like if I remember, I'll put something green on, even it's a pair of socks or something. 00:09:18 Speaker 3: You know, so you give it a little bit of an effort. 00:09:21 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I do. And my brother in law is Irish, so he definitely goes in. And my goddaughter, you know, he has a daughter and her name is Frankie, Frankie Rose after after her Nino, her godfather. 00:09:32 Speaker 1: Me. 00:09:32 Speaker 3: That's so sweet. 00:09:33 Speaker 2: So as of like lately she's only three years old, but ever since, you know, her dad's Irish, so they make the thing of it, like I've gotten more into it you know what I mean. 00:09:44 Speaker 3: But what do you like to do for fun? What's your like main irregular go to. 00:09:50 Speaker 2: I used to like anytime I have some time off, I'll love to go to like festivals and or like see I have a lot of DJ homies and go that like a good day party with something. Just dance my ass off in the sunshine, like I like dancing on me and just shaking my booty and getting down on the get down. Just let's go, you know, just mean just like a dope beat, funky ship like that's my thing, Like yeah, let's live. But you know, sometimes I would party too much on that. But I'm getting better at just going out and just like no, we're just dancing. Come on, let's just go dance. There's no extasy or cocaine. Just like go have a milkshake after and that'll be it. You know. 00:10:27 Speaker 3: Do you think you'll go to any festivals this year? 00:10:29 Speaker 2: I think so, man, I was it was funny. I was like, I'm not I don't know, I'm not a big like I know, you know, Coachella is like the Big Ones and all that, but I like more of the cuddy like boutique, like the last one I went to was like in the mountains in San Diego and it was maybe like two thousand people. What was this It was called West Coast Weekender. It's called and it's a it's a dope. One year they had they had it at Lafayette like this, wholetel in San Diego take a boutique hotel, not a not a big place, but they'll have a pool and they have the DJ by the and all that. And then this this particular year though, they had it like up in the mountains like on these like casino grounds, and uh, it's super fun, you know when it's the one that's smaller like that, it's not all like oh shit, like worst. I mean, let's you still told me to meet them right here by the giant you know or whatever. And then it's like this should say hey, you're on the nansar R cool, I'll see you there. And then it's like you know what I mean, it's more of a community vibe. 00:11:23 Speaker 3: Let me ask you this about festivals. Do you when you go to just a regular concert, like you know, it's Tuesday night and you have a ticket to see a show, what's your general experience? So do you enjoy it from beginning to end or is there like a fatigue? 00:11:36 Speaker 2: Oh, there's definitely a fatigue. I used to be to enjoy it for being, but you know, I got to factor all that stuff in now, like how far is the parking? Like where's the thing? Like what time am I going to get out of there? And I gotta be like rested up? I don't know. There's just a lot of because and then if you're dancing to and all that, and you know, it's the whole thing, and what's the food situation? Am I gonna? I'm kind of weird like that. I get a little I get anxiety sometimes in like big crowds, and like it's like I gotta like research all that shit to be like okay, that's okay, what's the thing and where's the walking space? And because I'm a little homey too, I'm like, you know, five six five six and a half with shoes on, and you know, usually I'm about shoulder up to people's shoulders. So when she gets crowded, I get a little weirded out, you know what I mean. Like, and it's sus because sometimes a lot of venues and stuff you want to get up front and see your favorite artists up close. But it's just like, nah, I'll stay in the towards the back, you know what I mean. 00:12:35 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sorry to answer your question. No, No, this is that's very you know. The reason I ask is because when I go to a concert, within fifteen minutes, I'm very tired. I'm ready to go home. I've never been to a festival because my fear is that I do like going to concerts, but that's you know, a two hour you know, two hours of your life. A festival is all day. I don't know that I could physically do it. 00:13:01 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, festivals are. It's a thing. You know. I got to have my water pack on and you know, but I'll plan it. You know, I've gotten better. I used to just go on stage rage and see what happens. But now I'm like, okay, uh my, the DJ I like is playing at this time, so you know, we should have breakfast at this time and then you know, I'll walk over, we'll get a space, you know, half hour before he goes on, and you know, I'm like doing all that shit now. 00:13:25 Speaker 3: It's like, I love this awareness you have of yourself becoming kind of a dad just a dad energy. 00:13:32 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I just yeah, yeah, I just can't do it. I went so hard back in the day that I think it it's like, yeah, I just can't do it anymore, can't pull it off. 00:13:40 Speaker 3: Did you ever play music or anything? 00:13:42 Speaker 2: Yeah, I used to be. I used to wrap like like some underground hip hop, like you know, socially conscious positive raps. 00:13:49 Speaker 3: You know, like no way do recordings exist? 00:13:53 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're out there. I mean I've actually thought about like just putting like just putting some out to see because I have like a whatever count like a distribution thing where I put out some of my comedy songs and stuff. But I have I have like straight like a couple of albums of like some underground hip hop shit. 00:14:10 Speaker 3: And what year? What year were you recording them? 00:14:13 Speaker 2: Oh man, this was a probably from like ninety nine to like two thousand and for four or five around there. 00:14:24 Speaker 3: And do you are you proud of it? Or is it something like an embarrassing thing for you at this point? 00:14:28 Speaker 2: No? Not, I mean maybe like the real early shit, I'm like, I won't play that, but but some of the layer stuff, I'm like I was into it. We had we had it we had it going, you know, we had like a little bit of a following and would throw shows. People will come, and so that's why when I started doing stand up, I was kind of the ice was kind of already broken as far as getting on stage. And but the thing is with music, you have, you know, an MC partner at DJ, you kind of have things not to hide behind, but you kind of have things that like take you know, yeah, but you know it's a stand up I was just you and the mic and the crowd. That's like, what's up? What you got? Wow? 00:15:05 Speaker 3: Well, you've got to put some of those songs out. I bet people would be thrilled to hear those. 00:15:10 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I've been listening to someone Homie I used to do it with it. He just like recovered like some old tracks from a computer that crash, and so he's been sending them to me. I'm like, damn, you know what, this shit still holds up. It's kind of you know, that's great, and it's like, you know, it's just all positive and like you know, trying to all spiritual and like you know, I mean elevated consciousness. We rocking this, you know, all that shit. You know. 00:15:36 Speaker 3: Oh, it is wonderful. Put it on Spotify and you could make like three dollars. 00:15:41 Speaker 2: If I'm lucky. 00:15:43 Speaker 3: Well, i'm talking about a decade. We're talking about a decade's worth of plays. That's a retirement plan. I think. 00:15:52 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, look. 00:15:54 Speaker 3: Speaking of you know, things in our past and things that we may or may not be embarrassed. I do want to talk to you about something. And you agreed to be on this podcast a little while ago. And we've never met each other, but I was very familiar. We have a lot of mutual friends. I think you're so funny. So I was happy you were going to do it. Thrilled. 00:16:17 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no is an honor. You're hitting me up. 00:16:19 Speaker 3: HOI thank you, well, of course, but you know the podcast is called I said, no gifts, And so I was. You know, last night, I was driving around town. I had just had dinner with a friend. Nice evening. Then I thought, you know what, I'm going to drive over, you know, west of where we were eating and just see what's going on in the world. And I stopped at a house and knocked on the door, and I was greeted by someone who handed me what appears to be a gift from you, and so I just thought I'll drive home. I'm not going to let this ruin my evening. I'll talk to Franky about this tomorrow. And so here we are. We're on zoom. It's a safe space. Is this a gift for me? 00:17:08 Speaker 2: It is? Man, I couldn't resist Bridger. Okay, well, it's. 00:17:15 Speaker 3: It's very it's beautifully wrapped and kind of some Christmas colors, shimmering Christmas colors. It's a little I would say it's about ten inches by ten inches box. Would you like me to open this here on the podcast? 00:17:28 Speaker 2: Please do it. I'm just dying to see you open this thing. Man. All I can think about is you opening that give and the shamrock shape for McDonald's. 00:17:43 Speaker 3: So, okay, well i'll open it here. I'm happy to do so. Maybe this is some tough tape you've got on here. Holy I'm just gonna say, there's possibly too much tape on here. 00:18:01 Speaker 2: This is very difficult, and well you know and lista, it's not. We now gave me the the box inside the gift that. 00:18:10 Speaker 3: Was extremely cruel of him, unfair, and I ended up opening that thing for probably twenty minutes of is this what I think. So for my initial impression of this, it is a it looks like binoculars, but what it actually is is a hidden drink flask? 00:18:35 Speaker 2: Is that what this is drinking? 00:18:40 Speaker 3: What am I looking at here? This is? Is this actual working binoculars or just a disguised flask? 00:18:47 Speaker 2: See I think it's just a disguised flast, but I didn't check to see if if they're actually working. If they are working binoculars, and damn, I might have to ask for that back. 00:18:57 Speaker 3: What gave you the idea to give this to me? 00:19:00 Speaker 2: You know, I just because we were talking about how I said, like, I can't go up front at advance now and I go to the back and I don't want to deal with walking to the line, you know, walking to the bar all that. So it's boom, it's right there. Because it's not fishy like, oh he has binoculars, because he's sitting in there, he's standing in the back. It's all good. Or you know, just. 00:19:20 Speaker 3: The having binoculars always makes you look fishy. 00:19:23 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right. 00:19:25 Speaker 3: There's never the time someone with binoculars looks like they're not up to something, unless you're like with. 00:19:32 Speaker 2: A bird watching group in the park. Then it's like all right, cool, But then, right, homie, you don't want your bird watching homies to know you're a full blown alcoholic. So you got the ship. 00:19:42 Speaker 3: Why why does Frankie have binoculars? And another pair of binoculars that look a lot cheaper. I love this idea. I could you could take this to the gym, even just fill this with some nice water. I'm going to use this as my main drinking source at this point. Now have you everer Where did you find this thing? 00:20:04 Speaker 2: It was one of those like random shops in a It was on Caesar Chavez and they say had like, you know, it's like one of those uh, I don't want to say bizarre, but it's kind of like an indoor swap. I mean many shops. You know, they got a little bit of everything. You get undershirts, socks, you know, you know, you get a toaster, and then they got these little like novelty things, and I don't know, I was just like, I gotta get this, you'n. 00:20:29 Speaker 3: We couldn't look at it here? 00:20:30 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, check it out. 00:20:31 Speaker 3: And so the box says binocular drink flask looks like real binoculars. Okay, So it's not real binoculars, says for adults, so uh not for children. And it's two sided to hold sixteen ounces. Not a bad if you've got some really hard liquor that could really just ruin your life. 00:20:52 Speaker 2: Yeah, or you got me, you could put a shamrock k hicken there on. 00:20:55 Speaker 3: Me, right, just full of a dairy ruling it. Okay, I'm taking it out. Well, this does look like real binoculars. I'm now holding them, and you obviously can't see through them, but you could easily look at that. 00:21:14 Speaker 2: This is incredible. 00:21:15 Speaker 3: Both sides open up and it's like a little two little drinks. 00:21:19 Speaker 2: Yeah, those are separate chambers, right, so you could almost you could put you know, if your partner's favorite drink is something else, put it on that side. 00:21:28 Speaker 3: You could put one thing in one side and another for a mixer in the other side, and then your your own little bar tender and now does it let's stay here if something else have oh there's it even comes with a funnel to get the drink into them. And uh a, uh what is this a bank? What do you call this a strap? That's what we're talking about. Yeah, absolutely, this. 00:21:54 Speaker 2: Is an experienced drinker who invented this? I'm not. I wonder what this guy his life is. I mean, like, and he went out of his way to get patented everything. 00:22:04 Speaker 3: And it's incredible. Have you had a hidden flask of any type before? 00:22:09 Speaker 2: Yes, I mean I've had plenty of flasks that you just put in and stuff like. 00:22:13 Speaker 3: That, but but no, like novelty shaped flasks. 00:22:18 Speaker 2: No. I mean there was one point when I had the the head. 00:22:22 Speaker 3: Like Homer Simpsons style. 00:22:25 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I was like, it was bro man, you know what I mean. It's like, you know, I don't want to be that guy. You know what I mean? 00:22:30 Speaker 3: Did you use that thing? 00:22:32 Speaker 2: I used it like once, I think or twice. It's just like I was like, you know what, this isn't me. I'm trying to be something I'm not and I had to move on with my life. 00:22:41 Speaker 3: Where did you use? It? Was a party? I hope it was just alone. 00:22:44 Speaker 2: No, No, it was at like a softball game or it was like my cousin's softball game. And I don't know why I thought it was you know, I don't know. I just thought this will be funny. Right as soon as I showed up with it, I was like, what am I doing. 00:22:59 Speaker 3: You know, just a humiliating yourself at a little at a little league game. That's difficult memory for you. 00:23:07 Speaker 2: You're like, oh, you were the annoyed becuzin. 00:23:11 Speaker 3: Discovery, I don't have any annoyed they're all thinking it's Frankie. Don't want you at the family events. They want you as far away as possible. Oh what, what's your drink of choice? I don't drink, so I'm always curious about like people's drinking habits. 00:23:29 Speaker 2: Okay, oh damn, what I got you? The fat? I mean you could put the I can put one. I can put in the water. Yeah. 00:23:35 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no way, trust me, not about that. 00:23:39 Speaker 2: And I honestly thought that I was not to say that, you give me square vibes. 00:23:42 Speaker 3: But I was like, oh, I give a lot of square vibes. 00:23:45 Speaker 2: You kidding, I will be honest, you doquare. 00:23:50 Speaker 3: If I'm not giving square vibes, something's gone very wrong. 00:23:52 Speaker 2: Yeah right, but yeah, yeah, I was like, I thought, man, you might not drink it. 00:23:58 Speaker 3: Then. 00:23:58 Speaker 2: I honestly thought that. I was like, well, you don't have to put alcohol flask, you know, no flask. I don't know that's what they're going for. But who's you know, they're you know, you can put whatever in there. 00:24:06 Speaker 3: Any liquid will fit. I mean I could fill it with bird seed. Yeah, there are so many things I can pour in there, just sand. And also there's always the point that I turned to such hard drinking that I need sixteen full ounces of something that and it needs to be hidden, so I'm prepared. Yeah, do you own binoculars? 00:24:30 Speaker 2: I do? I have, like a they're small though, they're like kind of like oh kind of like they're pretty yeah, but I it's I hardly are bring them anywhere, you know, like because I'm always ah, then they don't have to carry them around after and you know, like usually if I'm going to a game or something, I'm gonna hit the bar after then I'm just rolling around with the pair of binoculars. And then like you said, and then I'm that guy like what what the fuck is this? Yeah? 00:24:56 Speaker 3: Wait, I'm sorry, I never I never got an answer. What, Like, what do you drink? 00:25:02 Speaker 2: I'm mostly like like whiskey, but I drink mescal, tequila a lot of that, but whiskey is more of my like get home mind down right, Yeah, pop powers. 00:25:12 Speaker 3: Irish whisky is my favorite oh, this is a very Irish episode of this podcast. I mean, maybe we should just do a special Saint Patrick's Day release. Neither of us is Irish, and we are just giving this these people the spotlight today. 00:25:33 Speaker 2: The Shamrock Shake. 00:25:34 Speaker 3: I'm sure the Shamrock Shake is very you know, age old tradition for the Irish people. Yeah, okay, so you like a whiskey every night, just a small glass of whiskey. 00:25:51 Speaker 2: I mean it was funny. I never used to drink every day. I mean I've done. I was more like weekend warrior, like I would party like I have my party party days. But now, obviously I had a metal while. But during when the pandemic hit, I caught myself like, oh shit, I'm drinking every day now, homie. And I know that was you know, i'll call sales went up. I know, I wasn't alone with everyone. Yeah, and so yeah, I was like, so just during pandemic it was every day. But lately I've been like, now that things are back and I kind of had shed some pounds, I've been laying off it, you know, But once a weekend comes, I'm like, yeah, but yeah, I try to not drink every day. Like to make a point of it, because I got so in the routine I didn't I didn't even notice it, you know what I mean Because during but I was just like, yeah, let me drink. I'm my dream. It was just something to do. Then all of a sudden, I was like, oh shit on me, you're drinking every day and. 00:26:46 Speaker 3: That's how it happens. And then you've got it than your binoculars and you're kind of stumbling around. 00:26:51 Speaker 2: Coach, I want you to enjoin there by busery. 00:26:54 Speaker 3: I'm like, come on, you drenk need a flask and me like, do you have any interesting drinking stories from when you were drinking more often partying more? 00:27:07 Speaker 2: Oh? Man? I mean, I mean I probably got more interesting in drug stories. 00:27:13 Speaker 3: But oh, let's hear one. If you're willing to share, what. 00:27:16 Speaker 2: Do you need like the embarrassing ship or just like the raging shit or like just ship ship Like I straight up had ship in the warehouse party one time and they didn't have no total paper. He's my undershirt. But anyways, I don't. 00:27:27 Speaker 3: Know, I mean, I think that covers everything you just described. But I mean, if there's another embarrassing story, use your undershirt. 00:27:39 Speaker 2: Yeah, it loves it because the next thing after that is a sock on me. And I'm all right, well fuck, you know, but but I remember I was like, cause I took an ecstasy pill and sometimes you know when you take one that though, it makes you feel like it, I mean, it makes you ship straight up like you know you could. It's like oh. And then I'm like, oh man, I'm at this warehouse party and just and then there was a line for the restroom. So I'm in the restroom just my cool little clench on me just because you know, and I want to feel good. But I'm like, no, but I'm on next to seat right, but o little gotta ship so little, so many things, you know. And then finally I get in and then I don't even look if there's you know, I'm just I get to the toilets. 00:28:13 Speaker 1: Bam. 00:28:13 Speaker 2: You know, I'm doing the hover thing because you don't want to touch her now, guys. So I'm doing the hover thing, like really working my my glutes and ship and then uh just letting the letting that ship drop. And then as I finished, I look around there's no fucking toilet paper. I'm like, whoa. So but I'm feeling good though, because once you get that ship out, then the you know, the drugs really start kicking. So I'm like, oh oh, but there's no toilet paper hole. So I'm bummed out, but I feel good. Oh what am I gonna do? Then you go in to a survival mode. I'm like, all right, the sock and then I and then I remember grabbing my my chest and I'm like, oh, ship, I got an undershirt, you know. And then so I took out my old shirt together undershirt. I was like, oh, hell yeah, undershirt came through, homie. Just wipe that up, through it in the trash. Let's hit the nash floor. This is what that was old me Bridger, you know what I'm saying. That's incredible. 00:29:03 Speaker 3: I mean, I think this is kind of a psa to anyone that's going to be dancing at a warehouse this weekend. Someone you're dancing with may have just done this in the bathroom. 00:29:12 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, definitely trust no. 00:29:15 Speaker 3: One when you're in a warehouse. The things that are happening in that bathroom, that people are coming back out and now you're interacting with somebody who may have just used their undershirt, and where did the under shirt end up in the trash. 00:29:29 Speaker 2: You know, I balled it up nicely. 00:29:31 Speaker 3: Very considerate. 00:29:33 Speaker 2: You know, I didn't just throw it. You know, I was like, okay, let me tidy this up here. You know. 00:29:42 Speaker 3: Oh that's incredible. I mean, the things you'll do in those situations. 00:29:48 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean that was great. Luckily they had salt, you know, I washed my hands good and they had They just had the blower thing but no paper of any kind. Yeah. 00:29:58 Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like you were very considerate and responsible, considering considering you were on ecstasy. 00:30:04 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I was probably more so considerate because you know, hey, I want I want everybody to be good. You know, I don't want somebody to come in here look at this fucking shit rag or shit shirt whatever. 00:30:16 Speaker 3: Thank God for that undershirt. 00:30:18 Speaker 2: Like, no, brother, I love you. Sorry for my shif fumes. Brother, I love you. Here, let me tidy this up here. 00:30:23 Speaker 3: And oh my god, that is just that is a real difficult situation to be. And Okay, so you've obviously you've lived so many lives, Franky, I think that's clear. 00:30:40 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:30:40 Speaker 3: Hell, and now I've got these binocular this binocular flask, which yeah, it's gonna be very It could be a real turn in my life. 00:30:50 Speaker 2: Yeah, or did the birds heat? I want to side in the shamrock hicking the other and you know, it's a good time. 00:30:57 Speaker 3: I needed to start brainstorming things I can pour in this. I'm very excited about this opportunity. Do you like giving gifts? 00:31:04 Speaker 2: I do? I do? 00:31:05 Speaker 3: But do you like is it like special occasions or just like you'll see something at the store and buy it for somebody? 00:31:12 Speaker 2: Yeah, and like or if I see something dope and I'll be like, oh, that's perfect for so and so, and it doesn't have to be an occasion. I'll just like get it. It's kind of selfish because a lot of a lot of times I get gifts is because when I'm depressed, and it's a way for me to deal with depression. One of my boys gave me that advice one time, and he's like, hey, do some do some kind shit for some people. It helps, it helps, you know, And then it does, and then so yeah, I started, I'll just like, so the homies get gifts, you know that something you know I'm depressed. 00:31:41 Speaker 3: You know, everyone's benefiting from your depression. They're doing nothing to help. 00:31:47 Speaker 2: Hitting me up here? Are you sure not bummed out? You know, I could use some socks. You know. 00:31:56 Speaker 3: Have you gotten any gifts you're particularly given, any gifts that you're particular really proud of. 00:32:01 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, my homie Rob actually who you met. You know, he's the director homie mine, he's shot. We've been filming stuff together for over ten years now. But U he loves toothpicks, right and so, and it became a problem in our relationship because he would just leave the shit in like you know, toothpick, you get the food out, you might leave it in there for a couple of minutes or two, but he was doing the whole thing, leaving it in there, and he would get the flavored ones, and it kind of gives an arrogance, you know, kind of like like a cocky vibe. 00:32:33 Speaker 3: It's an immediate cocky vibe. When you've got a toothpick hanging out of your mouth. It makes you feel cooler than you look. You feel cool, but you don't look that cool. 00:32:42 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and then when you're talking to me, it's like like you're condescending or like talking down to me, like you know, he's got that toothpick a well, you know, I think we should do it this way. And you know, and I'm like, I get that shut from my homie. You know, you can't you can't understand the words cleared anyway. Anyway, he loves toothpicks and he's like investing them. He researches where you get the best price of the flavors and the packs, and it's a whole thing on me. And so I got him a leather toothpick holder and got his initials engraved oh on this thing. Yeah, And so you could fit about five or six toothpicks and this thing and the top of them kind of hangs out and it's just dope ass little leather thing out. I mean, like I was kind of like, fuck, but I don't want to invest in his bullshit, you know what I mean. At the same time, like that's the homie. Yeah, but I was like, oh, this is so perfect for him, you know what I mean? And so I had to get it. So I got it for him. 00:33:38 Speaker 3: That's so thoughtful. What flavor of toothpicks is this man buying? I'm familiar with cinnamon and mint. 00:33:44 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got the mint and he's got the peppermint one oh, and there's one that has like a little bit of caffeine in it. And so yeah, I say to what end? Yeah exactly, I'm just have a coffee. Yeah, exactly. 00:33:58 Speaker 3: How much could you possibly getting off of a toothpick? 00:34:01 Speaker 2: Exactly? I can't wait to tell you. You know what Bridger said on me, tell him you're coming back. 00:34:09 Speaker 3: I am going to get in a fight with him about the caffeine toothpick. That makes no sense. Whoever invented the caffeine toothpick needs to be run out of business. Okay, well, well that's wonderful. I think it's time to play a game. 00:34:24 Speaker 2: Okay, let's do it. 00:34:24 Speaker 3: We're gonna play a game called Gift or a Curse. But I need a number between one and ten from you. 00:34:29 Speaker 2: Nine. 00:34:30 Speaker 3: Okay. I have to do some light calculating to get the things we're gonna play with. Right now, you have the mic, you can promote, you can recommend, do whatever you want. I'll be right back. 00:34:39 Speaker 2: Okay, cool. Hey, what's up, homies, this Frankie Butt. You tune in on my podcast at FRANKI Show, presented by Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network, or you can just continue living your life. What are you doing right now? Now, it's none of my business. 00:34:59 Speaker 1: Oh. 00:34:59 Speaker 2: I also watch this fool coming out on Hulu this year, like June or July. I think it's gonna be good. And then yeah, you can check out the instagram's like total creeper Frankie gies. Yeah, that's yes about it, all. 00:35:16 Speaker 3: Right, Frankie, let's good to go. 00:35:20 Speaker 2: Let's do it. 00:35:21 Speaker 3: Excellent recommendations. There, you've got your very funny podcast and that show will be out at some point, yes, and it's gonna be terrific. 00:35:29 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I can't wait for that one. 00:35:31 Speaker 3: Okay, this is how gift to a curse works. I'm gonna name three things. You're gonna tell me if there are a gift or a curse and why, and there are correct answers so you can lose, which is just humiliating, so be very careful. That's all I'm gonna tell you, all right. Number one, gift or a curse. This is a listener suggested this someone named Brianna. Gift to a curse desks in kitchen, so like computer desks, but they're in kitchens. You ever seen this before? 00:36:05 Speaker 2: Yeah, that I'm gonna say, that's a curse. 00:36:08 Speaker 3: Why it's makes it too much. 00:36:10 Speaker 2: Those are separate spaces on me. I don't want to give. I don't know. It depends on the space too. If you're in a studio apartment, I get it. But if it's like I don't know, I feel like I see, Okay, you're trying to be more efficient. No, I can eat. I can eat here, I can work here, I can you know, but it's like, no, you need eating. Eating is like a I love eating. I like to cook too. I need that. That space is for that, you know what I mean. But I feel like I could just lead to too much. Like you could be with your partner in the kitchen, focusing on the food you're getting, your nurturing and all that area of nutrition, and you know, talking about that shit, and all of a sudden it's like, oh but no, but look at this, and oh but on the internet there's this, and I know that happens to anyone on the phones, but it's just too available right there. It's just too You need time to enjoy your food and all that and enjoy the company that you're having while eating your meal. That's too distracting. You're going to get caught up with some old workshit or something when it's not time for that. 00:37:09 Speaker 3: Frank, right, I don't know that is right? Of course, that's right. What are we talking about with a desk in a kitchen, that's like putting a black hole in your kitchen. There's no reason to have it there. It's just you're going to of course, it's just going to get cluttered with junk. No one needs a computer in the kitchen. Again, if it's in a small apartment, of course, yes, we're on board with that. But I don't want to walk into your five thousand square foot home and see that you've dedicated part of your kitchen to a computer. 00:37:41 Speaker 2: No, thank you. It's so tacky. 00:37:43 Speaker 3: I think it to me feels like a leftover of like the late nineties when everywhere a computer needed like that was a nice thing to have. No, no, we don't need a desk in the kitchen. Put the desk elsewhere. Put the computer elsewhere. It's a curse. Of course. I have like two memories of like going to friends homes as a kid and their weird parents had a desk in the kitchen. Made me so uneasy. Just it's not natural, especially if you have. 00:38:12 Speaker 2: A home you have like a whole house and you really it's kind of like. 00:38:15 Speaker 3: A weird flex like right, it's what are you doing on that computer? Anyway? It's just it makes everybody uncomfortable and nobody wants somebody just sitting on the computer, you know, playing roller coaster Tycoon while everyone's eating. It's a bad idea and uh, a curse. So you got that one right, Congratulations? Okay, number two? Gift or a curse. When a movie trailer says from the mind of so it'll say, you know, from the mind of whatever director rather than just from director. 00:38:51 Speaker 2: Mmm, I want to say that's a that's also a curse. Why it just sounds the way it's just I think it's the way you said it right now too. It's like the mind of or you know, you just say from director. It's like you're putting too much on it home. You don't have to be like, I don't know, it's like two, I don't know. Fun. It's the way you said it, I think is what's doing it for me right now. 00:39:19 Speaker 3: There's no other way to say it. Those words are. 00:39:26 Speaker 2: From the mind of. 00:39:29 Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't mumble from the mind of you have to. I mean, I guess I would. 00:39:36 Speaker 2: Rather prefer like from the director of this or from the producers of Da Dad, from the mind of sounds a little too godly or something or I don't know, I mean, I don't know if that's I guess. Yeah. Actually I'm gonna say for me, curse because just say director, producer of like the mind of sounds. 00:39:57 Speaker 3: Like there's I'll tell you what, you didn't get it right. You made an excellent, excellent argument right there. I think they're a gift because they saved me time because now I'm not seeing the movie. No, thank you. If you're advertising your movie that way, I've checked out. What a horrible thing to do. No one wants from the only people who should be saying from the mind. Maybe if you had come up with like a cure for a disease from the mind of the person who who you know, cured cancer, that works. But when we're talking about they made a movie from the mind of no, just say from director, from the person who directed leave it alone. But of course for me an absolute gift. It says we're talking about something that thinks it's better than it is. And I'm not going to be going to the movies for that movie. Perfect gift, you're wrong, so you've gotten one out of taste. Okay, Now finally this gift or a curse? Riding side saddle? So when you're on a horse and both of your legs are on one side. 00:41:09 Speaker 2: No, that's that's a curse. I mean why, because that's that's dangerous. I feel like you're gonna fall, and it's like what are you doing? You're posing for a picture, like like if you got to saddle up? You know what I mean, you gotta. It just feels yeah, how are you going to control the horse? 00:41:28 Speaker 1: No? 00:41:28 Speaker 2: No, no, that's a curse. You need help, Like. 00:41:33 Speaker 3: Frankie, you're wrong. Of course, riding side saddle is a gift. It looks incredible riding around with your legs crossed, you know, kind of dainty. Maybe you have a you know, like a parasol over your shoulder, maybe you've got a long flowing skirt on. There's nothing wrong with it. It's a perfect activity to do. 00:41:52 Speaker 2: And I a bridger. We're going horseback riding, and I want to see you do side saddle ship right there. I will happily take all the ig photos you want. Pull that shit. I'm good. 00:42:02 Speaker 3: You better watch out. I'm gonna hold you to this. I'm gonna get the full photo shoot of me riding side saddle on it, and then. 00:42:10 Speaker 2: It looks pretty dope. You're just like, just did you get it? Frankie. I'm like, yeah, yeah, I got it. HOI day, you look good. 00:42:21 Speaker 3: I'm going to show up in a full prairie dress and just be ready to ride side saddle. 00:42:26 Speaker 2: Hell yeah, we got you get widdles be hats. You see it the horse track races a prairie dress. Hell yeah, my boy. You were looking dope out there. 00:42:35 Speaker 3: Galloping until I get thrown off the horse and get trampled by another horse in my dress and then that's a that's a dark scene for everyone, but I think it would be worth it. Well, Frankie, you got one out of three you I mean, let's just be let's be honest. You failed, but that's fine. 00:42:52 Speaker 2: I learned a lot from that though, you know what I mean. 00:42:53 Speaker 3: So it was educational at the very latest. Okay, well, this is the final segment of the podcast. It's called I said no emails, and people write into I said no gifts at gmail dot com. I can't tell you how many problems my listeners have. Every one of these people has some gift related issues, some social related issue that they expect me to solve, and then I drag my guests into it. Would you help me answer a question? 00:43:19 Speaker 2: Yeah for sure. 00:43:20 Speaker 3: All right, let's read. Let's see here. Okay, Well, there's a problem almost right from the top of it, says dear Bridget and guests. So we've just got this person calling me Bridget, which is, you know, offensive and uh not a great way to kick off an email. But let's see what happens. This is I need your help. I'm curious about your thoughts on giving second hand gifts. I love searching thrift stores and estate sales for treasures and often find incredible things vintage bar wear, gorgeous inlay cutting boards, beautiful pottery, et cetera, when they're in great condition. Do you think these make acceptable gifts? Why do we as a society deem that gifts need to be brand new items? Thank you? And they just signed Treasure Hunting in Colorado, so they went out of their way to you know, give themselves this title. Meanwhile, they're misspelling my name, calling me Bridget. I mean, I kind of just feel like not even answering the question. I could easily delete the email and move on here, but let's let's try to settle down here. And what do you think is giving used items acceptable as a gift? 00:44:34 Speaker 2: I mean, well that HOLI it depends on their financial situation. If they're broke and shit and they bring me some use shit but they kind of polish it up whatever, I'll accept that. But if I know you've got a decent job and you're coming with that bullshit, it's like you're just being cheap on me. You're not really respecting our friendship. Like I know you can afford at least, you know, some something new have to be expensive, but it doesn't have to be old and already used and shit somebody shit all over, especially with COVID and everything not. Come on, man, But I don't know if it's like an antique that oh dad, Like, I get that, but I feel like this person is And I know they said that those words, but I feel like they're more just cheap. 00:45:20 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm obviously very suspicious of this person. I mean they've obviously they're talking about vintage barwear and beautiful pottery, et cetera. But I feel like they're probably not telling us that. They're probably just giving people a bunch of ratty old T shirts. 00:45:33 Speaker 2: You know what, that's the kind of vibe by God, especially when they call you bridget, It's like he's definitely giving. You're probably giving the T shirt. I use that warehouse, fucking reshurroom, the shit like, oh no, it's you know, not on me. 00:45:48 Speaker 3: So treasure hunting in Colorado, I mean, I guess you're the real answer here is well, look, yes, of course you can give used items. I think that's fine for me. The older the better. I want to but a gift and for it to just dissolve in my hands. I would love to just bring me garbage. I'm happy to do that. There's no shame in a used item. I feel like this is something you your own personal problem, treasure hunting in Colorado, that you've brought to the podcast. You've got some insecurity, and you're expecting me to kind of give you a go ahead on just buying crap for your friends, don't. I don't support that. But if you're if on the off chance you weren't lying and you are finding these beautiful items, great, you know they're unique, they're treasures, and I'm sure if those things even exist in reality, your friends and family are loving them. But like we said, the fact that you're just kind of wrapping up trash, yeah, it's it's a hard pill to swallow. 00:46:54 Speaker 2: Some like the antique road show type people, they pay attention to detail, you know what I mean? Right, this hold me calling you the wrong name, call you bridget like he's obviously not or he or she's not paying attention to details. So you're not finding the dope antiques because otherwise you'd be, you know, crossing your t's and dotting the eyes and all that shit, and that's not happening, thank you. It's some old raggedy sweatshirts from Goodwill and it's like, oh no, it's a gift. 00:47:22 Speaker 3: Use microwave, you know, exercise bike that doesn't even function. They found that the yeah, behind the thrift store. It sounds like this person's a problem in a lot of people's lives. 00:47:35 Speaker 2: Do you mind if we read one more? Let's do it. 00:47:38 Speaker 3: Okay, this says deer Bridger and guest. So they've got my name right, they've just called you a guest. We're off to a good start. My fiance and I are getting married in the mountains of Vermont this coming May. We met six years ago at a mutual friend's Halloween party and hit it off right away. We are now having that same mutual friend be our efficient at our wedding. I have known her since we were in kindergarten and our families have always been very close. My fiance met her while working at the same swim and tennis club as lifeguards. Okay, I'm starting to sense something here that the fiance has met this person separately, but we can get into that later. She obviously means a lot to both of us, being both a close friend and the reason we met at all, and we are ecstatic to have her be the one to mary us. She will be such a huge part of our wedding day, and we want to get her something special to show our appreciation for her friendship and her part in our wedding. She is a massage therapist with her own company, Loves Harry Potter, Kats and Games. What is something that we can get her to show our appreciation. Thank you for your gifting wisdom, and that's from Kelsey. Now, Frankie, there is something that I just picked up on as I hinted at while reading this thing at, Kelsey's fiance met this woman separately in a different situation. I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but I feel like this person is planning to steal her man. 00:49:10 Speaker 2: Don't you get that feeling? Mess separately. 00:49:15 Speaker 3: And they were lifeguards together. They were in their bathing suits when they met, so it was immediately sexy. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I guess let's say we don't know if this is a manneral woman that Kelsey's marrying. I can't remember. My reading comprehension is very low. But let's assume that this is a man for them. Well, I mean, it doesn't matter. What does matter is that this woman has stepped into their lives and is already planning to destroy their relationship, she said. Kelsey says right here in the email, she will be such a huge part of our wedding day. And I don't think she realizes how huge of a part, because I think that this woman has something planned. That said, let's let's try to be optimistic. What if she does show up and things go, you know, go as according to plan. What what do you get this person who loves Harry Potter, Cats and games and is a massage therapist. 00:50:09 Speaker 2: That's a little that vibe too, is like that's what you're putting out there. 00:50:13 Speaker 1: You know. 00:50:13 Speaker 2: It's like I'll fuck with all those things, but to be the main points of describing this person, it's like you know what I mean, Like like, yeah, I like cats too, but that's what you're gonna put as your main shit, like Harry Potter, cats. 00:50:27 Speaker 3: And like this is what I'm thinking. She's putting that out there in order to as kind of a disguise while meanwhile she's a sexy lifeguard. She's putting out kind of the spinster vibe. That's like, I'm not a threat to your relationship. You have nothing to worry about. Yes we met at the pool, but things are gonna be fine. And because I love Harry Potter and cats, but meanwhile she's an absolute minx. 00:50:54 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, if she's if she's out there, yeah yeah, lifeguard status. And I'm not trying to oh yeah all left guards are hot or whatever. I'm not trying to do all that. But you're right, I think that's a decoy her being like, no, Harry Potter and kats and what was it massage. 00:51:10 Speaker 3: Therapy, balls of yarn. Probably let's see massage therapist, which actually is kind of a sexy thing as well. This woman is coming for your fiance, Kelsey, and they met separately. Like, yeah, that's the one thing where what's happened? 00:51:25 Speaker 2: I think Kelsey writing this letter is her kind of asking, like kind of putting the question out there, like, am I tripping? Is this is this girl coming from my man? I think she's kind of asking that, you know in this Oh man, there's. 00:51:40 Speaker 3: Red flags right there, Kelsey. Oh, there are so many red flags. This is pure psycho sexuality. This is white, single white female. 00:51:50 Speaker 2: You're gonna ruin this wedding. 00:51:53 Speaker 3: No, I'm gonna save this relationship, Kelsey. You've got to get rid of rid of this woman. I don't care if it comes to violence. The gift, the whole gift situation, forget it. It's off the table. I mean, you know, maybe by yourself a spare Harry Potter book that you can read, should you not give it away, But otherwise I say, disinvite, do not allow her at your wedding. And you know it's time for a shared Facebook account with your husband. You should share a cell phone, shared a email at least for the next five to ten years, just until this woman has moved on, because she is coming for you. And look, let's not just blame the woman here. The man is obviously up to something. 00:52:41 Speaker 2: A week squeaky clean right now, we've got to make sure to mention it. 00:52:44 Speaker 3: I think leave break off the engagement, Break off the engagement, get this jerk away from you. You were so nice to write into the email and so respectful to me. You're obviously a good person, and you've surrounded yourself with kind of the these spiders, these snakes, and there's nothing but heartbreak ahead for you, Kelsey, unless you heed my words. Frankie, do you agree? 00:53:12 Speaker 2: Yes, you need to go get homegirls, some Harry Potter books and a bottle yarn and a new kitty Kat and just tell her to bounce on me. Be on your way, girl. There's my may and we're getting married. Kelsey. 00:53:26 Speaker 3: You've gotten your answer, loud and clear. Frankie is co signed. I don't think there's anything left to discuss. If your fiance or his mistress want to write into the podcast, that's up to them. I probably won't answer their question. But you know, look, Frankie, we've done an excellent job here. We've done what can only be described as a perfect job, and we've helped the public. And now I also have my binoculars, which is so exciting. Become a secret drinker. Always the best way to start drinking is just alone and secretly, and so that kind of lies ahead for me. I've had a wonderful time with you here. 00:54:12 Speaker 2: Oh man, I had a blast. Bridger, thanks for having me on me. 00:54:15 Speaker 3: Thank you and listener. I hope you've taken some important lessons from today's episode. I hope you're able to apply them in your own life, you know, to enrich your existence. And if you can't do that, I don't know. I don't know why you're listening to the podcast. I don't even know why what you're doing. I want you away from me, get away. But if you are able to do those things, I'll meet you here again next week. I love you, goodbye.
