We've 49 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: had a lot happen here in the last couple of weeks. 50 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 1: We're not gonna waste any time. We're gonna kick right 51 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: into it. We just had the week one of the 52 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: NFL season. And if you didn't know, I also write 53 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: for a website called twsn dot net. It's a sports 54 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: website and I write about bright I mean, I say 55 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: random things. I've written football, if written baseball, some gambling, basketball, soccer. 56 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: I think I wrote a soccer article. And there are 57 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: lots of things. But this year, right now, for the 58 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: NFL season, I'm doing a bottom five power ranking. So 59 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: it's the worst five teams of the week or moving 60 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: forward into the next week weak ones. It got a 61 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: little controversial. I had Tennessee Titans in at number five, 62 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: being the fifth worst worst team in the NFL. They 63 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: lived up to it with their brutal loss sixteen fifteen 64 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 1: to the New Orleans Saints. They really didn't do anything 65 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: to prove me wrong, despite people saying they're coached far 66 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,559 Speaker 1: too well to be end up in the bottom five 67 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: of the NFL. And here I'm saying they have no 68 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: future currently at quarterback on the roster. They're an aging team. 69 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: Prime example is signing star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. That 70 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: was their key addition in the offseason. Is by definition 71 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: and aging wide receivers, So that's the deal. They've got talent. 72 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 1: I mean, Hopkins is a playmaker, but he's not the 73 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: guy that's going to be there, I guess for the 74 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: next five plus years to help move your offense forward. 75 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, I mean this is probably while we're we 76 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: on the back end of the prime. I mean, he's 77 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: still incredible, but we're in the back end of that. 78 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: And ten Hill is just not the QB anymore, at 79 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: least not going to be. So I'm saying, yes, they're good, 80 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: Yes they're going to be competitive, but not playoff bound 81 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: and certainly heading in a direction where this team is 82 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: not going to be relevant with the current makeup of 83 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: the roster here in the next year or two. So 84 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: they have a new stadium on the horizon, I am 85 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: predicting they will be in a rebuild here, even with 86 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: coach Frabel you know, involved, But they will be in 87 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: a rebuild here and gearing up to be really good 88 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: and a contender again once the new stadium opens. It's 89 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: kind of how it works, right. So anyway, I was 90 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: proven right with the sixteen to fifteen loss to the 91 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints, who didn't even have their best playmaker 92 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: on offense, Alvin Kamara. He was suspended obviously. So now 93 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: we had just released Week two's bottom five that also 94 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: has stirred some folks up. Titans moved up to number four. 95 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: I think they earned that with their loss. But at 96 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: number five is a team that has that has Super 97 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: Bowl aspirations, these Cincinnati Bengals. So I've been called a troll, 98 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 1: and I'll tell you right now, I've never been called 99 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: a troll. Leprechaun. Sure the hair picks like that that 100 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: that fits, man. I put on anything green and don't 101 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: put a hat on this head, and yeah, sure Leprechaun 102 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: all day, all right, troll, no, no, no no. Maybe 103 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: when my hair was longer and I didn't wash it 104 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: for a couple of days and it could kind of 105 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: stand up straight. I kind of looked like those trolls 106 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: that were real popular in the nineties. But no, I'm 107 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: not trolling. I'm calling as I see it. This is 108 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: a team that looked really, really bad in Cleveland. Cleveland 109 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: took care of business. I don't buy Cleveland, but man 110 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: did the Bengals sure make them look good. And Joe 111 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: Burrow coming off of the richest contract in NFL history, 112 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: and he put together his career low in passing in 113 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: his worst performance as a starting NFL quarterback. So everything fit. 114 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: I mean, even Jamar Chase after the game, his mind 115 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: was kind of boggled by this. You know, he called 116 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: out the Browns and called the Melves and he just 117 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: couldn't believe they lost to Elves. You did lose to Elves, 118 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: So now you need to be in the bottom five. 119 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: And this may be the only time they ever make 120 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: an appearance in the bottom five, because this team does 121 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: have talent, and you know they're going to figure it out, 122 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: and they started zero to last year. It's happening again, right, 123 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: But I'm not a troll leprecun maybe not a troll, 124 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: not today. Johnny Palaimo has been called a troll before. 125 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: I know that for a fact. Got that kind of 126 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: little troll looking face, you know, kind of goonish. It's okay, 127 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: you're my friend. Let's see what else has been going 128 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: on with On a stand up show a week ago 129 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: Friday night, It's a show called Comedy Wars. That was 130 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: that back line in downtown Omaha, Nebraska. Show went well, 131 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: had four good minutes, felt really good about it. Here's 132 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: the fun thing about about that night. I wrote that 133 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 1: four minutes that day it was real life experiences of 134 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: things that happened I mean that day. And I find 135 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: that fun, I find the interesting. I find that challenging. 136 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: That doesn't make me a better comic, though, Like I'm 137 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: I need to work on my material over and over 138 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: and over and over and over again. I understand that, 139 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: and I'm going to do that. But in this particular instance, 140 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: I had something stuck in my head and I didn't 141 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: need to get it out, and it was kind of 142 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: therapeutic to be able to talk about it and have 143 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: people laugh with me on it. So that was fun. 144 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna hear a clip from that here in just 145 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. But man, it was a good show. 146 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 1: I met some folks for the first time. Clem he 147 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: as funny as hell. He He's who I went up against. 148 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: So comedy Wars as you've got, had two head to 149 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: head matchups and then winners of those first two rounds 150 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: move on. They go head to head and then the 151 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: winner of that round then heads to the finals to 152 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: go up against the champion from the month before, and 153 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: cle I went head to head with Clem. He advanced 154 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: to the next round. Hilarious. I have never seen him before. 155 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: He's uh TikTok is TikTok. You gotta check him out 156 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 1: on his TikTok. I will get it here, I'll put 157 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: it on my Twitter. I'll put it on the Twitter 158 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: and share it for you. But man, his one liners 159 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: were just incredible. And then he'd break into a story 160 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: about his kids and he had this vests with these 161 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: it was all metal, so you know he was ready 162 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: for war. 163 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: He was ready for it. 164 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, I'm talking about expired milk, so there was a difference. 165 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: The crowd definitely was very much into what he was 166 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: given and you know should have won. You know should 167 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: have won, And I would love to have seen him 168 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: in the finals. I think he was prepared to put 169 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: on a great show against which you be in the finals. 170 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: But another time, I'm sure he will be there. He 171 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: is hilarious and I hope to do more shows with 172 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: Clem in the future.

So, Johnny, all 187 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying is right now, if you look at all 188 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: the teams after Week one in the NFL, the Cincinnati 189 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: Bengals did not perform as a super Bowl favorite. Okay, 190 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: they didn't perform as an AFC favorite. They didn't even 191 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: perform as an AFC North favorite. They performed like one 192 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: of the bottom five teams in the NFL. And if 193 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: you look at the betting odds, they're slipping now. They're 194 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: now thirteen to one shot to make the super Bowl, 195 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: which is still you know, top six, but there's teams 196 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: jumping ahead of them now, as they should. That's all 197 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: I'm getting at. If anybody has a problem with that, 198 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: I guess come up with your own rankings. I have 199 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: my own rankings, and I believe I wrote even in 200 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: the article one of the basis for how I'm determining 201 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: the bottom five is vibes, and the Bengals did not 202 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: have good vibes. They were soaking wet, it was raining, 203 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: and they were in Cleveland. It was terrible conditions for them. 204 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: They're a team that really needs to play indoors. Frankly, 205 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm now comparing the Bengals, the twenty twenty three Bengals 206 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: to those really good Saints teams with Sean Payton, Drew Brees, 207 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: Darren Sproles. Yep, put them outside. It's a little dicey. 208 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: All right, that's a terrible take. I'm gonna take that 209 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: one back, that one. That one's not real, Johnny, please 210 00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: cut that from the from the show. So I had 211 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: the show the other night, Comedy Wars. It was a 212 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: great time. I just wanted to say thanks again to 213 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,079 Speaker 1: William Watts the third for having me again. I've done 214 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: this show a few times, and every time I do 215 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: the show, it's fun to see how William introduces me 216 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: before I come on stage. He legitimately acts like he 217 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: found me on the streets and he felt bad, so 218 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: he opened up four minutes for this poor guy to 219 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: come on stage. I do appreciate I don't know. I'm 220 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: not on a lot of shows right now, so I 221 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: do appreciate his time. But you would think he saw 222 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: me on a street corner begging for stage time, and 223 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: he's my savior. But he's really funny. When he introduces me, 224 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: he tries to get the crowd going because you know, 225 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: my humor sometimes is grocery store related or Crohn's disease related, 226 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: so it's not always the most fun topic to talk about, 227 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: which maybe that that's where I'm going wrong because it's 228 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: comedy and you're supposed to make people laugh. I don't 229 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: know this is the stuff Johnny tells me to talk about. 230 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: But here we are here anyway. Here's the intro William 231 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: gave me. The other night. 232 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: Contestants are y Odom and Clem Jameson and so coming 233 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 2: up to the stage versus been somebody who has competed 234 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 2: on Comedy Wars and didn't do so well and has 235 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: beat himself up NonStop, thoroughly twenty four to seven until 236 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 2: he got this fucking opportunity to come back up on stage. 237 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: In front of you people. 238 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 2: So when he gets done with his four minutes, whether 239 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 2: he does well or not, I want you to fucking 240 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: get loud for the smuggle Blumber. Everybody puts her hands 241 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: together for jury. 242 00:14:52,680 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: Odom, I love quin Boy introduced me every time he 243 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: imagine I make away. He saw me outside and he's like, yeah, 244 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: that one's dying inside. So let's just break this down 245 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: from the top, William says, I've been on the show 246 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: numerous times and I have I think that's the third 247 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: time competing, and one time I was brought in as 248 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: a special guest. He said I didn't do so well 249 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: last time. I know for a fact, after every show 250 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: he's told me I did really good. The audience laughs. 251 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: Now do all the punchlines hit. No, I'm working on stuff, man, 252 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: I'm working on stuff. But you know, he said I 253 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: didn't do so well. I don't know what time, what 254 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: like what? Which which show is he referencing necessarily. I 255 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: really do think the last one was pretty good, and 256 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: it really felt like he was begging for the audience 257 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: to be there for me. I did feel like to 258 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: make a wish child without the like terminal disease like 259 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: he was making. It seem like, I really need you 260 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: guys to laugh today for this guy in particular. The 261 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: rest of them, they're gonna make you laugh because that's 262 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: what they do. But this guy, please, this guy right here, Jeremy, 263 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: he needs it more than you know. It's all good. 264 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: At least I had that say, able to have that 265 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: moment at the front and you know, really express myself. 266 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: Thanks William though for having me on the show. I 267 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: do really enjoy that show. I love the format, and 268 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: it's a lot of fun. And I had a lot 269 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: of fun with all the comics there. And anytime you 270 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: get to see Richie Bee tell jokes, I mean, it's 271 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: a good nut. So at the top of the show, 272 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 1: I was telling you how I had written the material 273 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: the four minutes for Comedy Wars that day and it's 274 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 1: actually it's all based off a true story that happened 275 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 1: to me that morning. So as you know, or maybe 276 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: you don't know, I am your poor man's ride in secrets. 277 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: I got like five jobs, one of them being a grocer, 278 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: and I woke up, I wake up early, driving into work, 279 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: and I get a text from my wife and she 280 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: had screenshot it a complaint from a customer who had 281 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: been shopping in my area of the store the night prior, 282 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: saying beware, you know if you're gonna shop at this store, 283 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,239 Speaker 1: that this is happening. And she was saying that there 284 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: was gallons and gallons and gallons and gallons and gallons 285 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: of milk that were expired on the show Elf and 286 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: she had to basically go on a hunt to find 287 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: one that was not expired, and I'm like, great, like 288 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a problem. But how is this possible? 289 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: Because I was just there the day before and this 290 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: was not the case. So immediately I go in check 291 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: the shelf and there's nothing out a date on the shelf. 292 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: Going to the cooler and there's two gallons in the 293 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: cooler that were dated for that day for today. So 294 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: then I go about my business. I'm just you know, 295 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: filling eggs. I do enjoy the eggs. You know, there's 296 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: really nothing better than looking at the entire egg case 297 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: when it's completely full faced, ready for business. I don't 298 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: know why, but I love a good egg case. I 299 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: just don't always have Yeah, no, no real true way 300 00:18:55,600 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: to explain my love for the eggs. But I don't know. 301 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: Someday I'll need to like talk that out with the 302 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: therapist or something, because man, I love the egg So 303 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: he's one of the first things I'd do in the 304 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: morning is get that egg case up and going anyways, 305 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: the milk. There was nothing out of date of the milk. 306 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: So I'm going about my business and then I get 307 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 1: a call from my boss and he says he saw 308 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 1: this post that he got sent from his boss and 309 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I know, I saw it. I checked. 310 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: Everything's good. I mean, there was two gallons pulled. I 311 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: don't know if that's related or not, but you know, 312 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: everything's good. And he's like, all right, I just made 313 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: you know, blah blah blah blah stuff. Then I get 314 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: I just happened to walk by another manager in the 315 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: store and he said, hey, if you didn't know, and 316 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: he tells me the same story. All right, So I 317 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: explained again, I know, I checked that there's nothing wrong. 318 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: Then I come across another manager who actually was there 319 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: the night prior, who spoke to this very customer, and yes, 320 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: he did pull those two gallons that would have been 321 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: not expired when he pulled them, but they were expired 322 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: the next day. So that day I was talking to 323 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: him and he said that she had just mentioned that 324 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: there was a couple and he went back and grabbed 325 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: them and all good. So everybody did their part. Why 326 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: why does keyboard confidence come into play with folks sometimes 327 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: with things that just don't matter. What was she protecting 328 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 1: or saving by complaining about the milk that night and 329 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: over exaggerating, right, All she did was put me in 330 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: a position where it's like office space, you know, with 331 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: the with the TPS reports, and I'm hearing about it 332 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: from all angles about uh. And the worst part is 333 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: then the post then becomes a thread of multiple complaints 334 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: coming from all angles that may or may not have 335 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 1: they do with each other. And they all could be 336 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: exaggerated or they all be true, for who knows, but 337 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: one little thing spins out of control into one hundred 338 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: other million little problems. And uh, I mean, at the 339 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: end of the day, I can't have that milk so 340 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: close stated on the shelf. But what it didn't have 341 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: to be exaggerated. And she complained, She didn't complain. She 342 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: brought it to everyone someone's attention, and that it was 343 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: taking care of that night. There's got to be something 344 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: done with folks like this, you know, in a say 345 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: you know, no one needs to be harmed.

So as I was working that day, 348 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: I wrote four minutes of material on this and this 349 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: is what I did at the at Comedy Worth.
