We don't have to wake her up. 20 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to do that smoking a cigar somewhere 21 00:00:55,200 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: that's a pipe or something.

That's aggressive though, like it really is, 28 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: but it's kind of goals. It is gold. 29 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 4: Why you tired?

Yes, say gambling. 38 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you get to a certain point 39 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,559 Speaker 1: in your life where you may as well just enjoy, right. 40 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 3: Right, wouldn't you. 41 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 4: I don't get cigars. They look cool, but they don't 42 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 4: do nothing to me. 43 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: Nah, well they I think people like the taste and 44 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: the experience. 45 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel like Tony Soprano when I smoke one, 46 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 5: But other than that, I'm like, what am I really doing? 47 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: Well? 48 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 3: Does it have to get you high? Seems is it Okay, 49 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 3: if it doesn't, it is, but it. 50 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 4: Seems pointless, like why are we doing. 51 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: It's kind of like a relaxing activity, and I think 52 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: the nicotine does get into your system. 53 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 3: I used to work in a cigar store. 54 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: So I guess I'm defending the practice two different ones, 55 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: high school and college. 56 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm really envious. What did you do there? I 57 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 3: sold cigars o like Stockholm. I didn't roll them. I 58 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 3: didn't sit there with a straw hat. Yeah, I got fired. 59 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: Remember that, I've only been fired from one job in 60 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: my whole life, and it was that one. Well, in retrospect, 61 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: I probably should have gotten fired. But then again, well 62 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: there's two sides of this. So I worked at a 63 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: cigar store in college, right, so college students, I should 64 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: have gotten fired from two jobs cause I was working 65 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: in radio at the same time college students. As you know, 66 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: like the semester ends on the tenth of December or something, 67 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: and you don't go back until the tenth of the anywhere. 68 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: So I was unavailable to work during the holidays, which 69 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: in retail is the busiest time, and then it's when 70 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: everybody gets vacations. 71 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 3: So I go to the radio station. 72 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, I'm out of here, see in January, 73 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: and they're like, like, you know you work on Christmas. 74 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: Bro I'm like, but I don't because I don't live here, 75 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: you know, I live somewhere else and going home. So 76 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: somehow I didn't get fired for that, but I mean 77 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: in retrospect, they should have, because it's like, wait, wait 78 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: a minute, this is the reason that you this reason 79 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: we put up with you so that you can be 80 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: on the you know, in the middle of the night 81 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: when the middle of the night guy wants to go 82 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: and you know, celebrate Honaker or whatever. And then the 83 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: same thing with the cigar store.

So you get to come back. Yes. 118 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: So that was a great working environment where the manager 119 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: manager loved me because every basically he had no juice 120 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: on me anyway, like, no juice over me anymore. 121 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: Like, yeah, you know I could do. 122 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: I could blow smoke in his face now because I 123 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: couldn't get fired by him. 124 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 3: But imagine that. Imagine if you. 125 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: Fired someone as a manager, Jason, and then a bomb 126 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: goes over your head and was like, really you fired 127 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: that person? 128 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: No, unfired? Well, then that person's a respect you anymore. Right, 129 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: it seems likely, but it would still bug me. Yeah, No, 130 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 3: that does sound like something it would happen around. Yeah. 131 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I did talk to the guy the other day. 132 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: He's doing very well, the guy who they forgot to fire. 133 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: If you've been listening for a while, you might remember 134 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: that story. The first time I was on the radio 135 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: during the day, I showed up. It was a Saturday 136 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: at like nine forty five. I was ten to two. 137 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: First time I'd ever been on with light shining through 138 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: the window. It's so nervous. I show up and the 139 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: guy who normally would have been on at that time 140 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: showed up at the same time, and he's like, what 141 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: are you doing here? And I'm like, I don't know. 142 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: They called me last night and told me to come in. 143 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: He's like, why would they do that? You know I 144 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: do this six days a week. I'm like, I don't know, man. 145 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: So he goes out in the hallway, gets on the phone. 146 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: I can see him through the glass. He's not in 147 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: the sad. He's like, okay, all right, comes Dany, grabs 148 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: his bag. He goes they forgot to fire me, and 149 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: watch out. They were supposed to fire him at five 150 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: o'clock or like two o'clock whenever, got off the air 151 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: on Friday, and somehow they just they failed to mention 152 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: that to him. They forgot, and so they called. But 153 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: they remembered to tell me to come in to cover 154 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: for him, right, But they forgot to tell him for 155 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: the reason why. 156 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 3: So that was awkward, got it? 157 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: Yeah? At least, hey, at least they did the post 158 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: planning part. That's usually the part that we forget about. 159 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: We are really good in this company at firing people. 160 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: But what we forget to do sometimes. And I hear 161 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: Stephanie Spielberg just walked out of the room. She wants 162 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: nothing to do with this. She's actually she's physically hiding 163 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: from me. Now she's under the table. No, we're really 164 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: good at firing people. And then we remember, oh, wait, 165 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: they did something here that we needed them to do, 166 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: and then and then we have to figure that out. 167 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 3: But yeah, that's what you've been fired from. Ever been fired, 168 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 3: never fired, none of you. 169 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: No one's ever been fired in this room. Well wow, 170 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: that's amazing. Have you ever quit in glorious fashion?

I don't know 281 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: they're mad about that, but it's back. If you're into that, 282 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: and the party is over you guys, if you want 283 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: to rent an Airbnb, they're going to make the no 284 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: fun police have taken over.

The system analyzes factors 290 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: like trip length, booking timing, and distance from the guest 291 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: location to flag potential party plans. Since implementing these measures 292 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, Airbnb reports a fifty percent drop in 293 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: party incidents across the US.

Many are saying that 345 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: it was made by AI and it included books that 346 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: don't even exist. So it was in Sunday's newspaper and 347 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: included books that don't exist by real authors. Social media 348 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: users have alleged the list was created by AI. The 349 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: newspaper said that the list was licensed content that was 350 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: not created or approved by the paper's newsroom. The paper 351 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: went on to say it's unacceptable for any content. It 352 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: provides two inch readers to be inaccurate, and then later 353 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: confirmed that it was an AI generated list.
