Speaker 1: How are you gonna let something listening to enjoying yourself? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Cool, what's the matter? Put on your headphones? Welcome to
Speaker 2: ball Chat.
Speaker 1: You screaming? Now we're back. It's Wednesday. How you doing, buddy?
Speaker 3: Not?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 1: What's the matter today? I was told to stop screaming? Less?
Speaker 1: Who says that?
Speaker 3: Who are fantastic listener with Jody?
Speaker 1: Jody?
Speaker 3: Yeah, she said we shouldn't argue so much.
Speaker 1: Oh no, she likes that.
Speaker 3: No, she said she specifically doesn't like that. So what
Speaker 3: she said, you should you You you can't control Scottie,
Speaker 3: but you can control your emotions. And I thought that
Speaker 3: was really really a nice thing that she said. Yes,
Speaker 3: that's a very poignant, So thank you.
Speaker 1: Jody sounds actually heard that in therapy. Why are you
Speaker 1: what because it's just relaxed. This is relaxed, setting it relaxed.
Speaker 1: I'm not relaxed. I'm not relaxed at all. I come
Speaker 1: into the studio.
Speaker 3: This is just me venting. This is just me venting.
Speaker 3: I'm not yelling, I'm not arguing. I'm keeping my tone
Speaker 3: at a low medium tone. Okay, I walk in, hmm.
Speaker 3: I asked you to set up I did.
Speaker 1: The box was set stupid man was also hearty to go.
Speaker 3: Not the box was set up. Yeah, there was a
Speaker 3: microwave in front of me. There was fifteen boxes of
Speaker 3: cereal to the right of me. Yes, I would have
Speaker 3: had a sliver about yay bag. So what you actually
Speaker 3: sit here? A microwave would have been in my face
Speaker 3: for the entire thirty minutes.
Speaker 1: That we record there. Then I could have warmed up
Speaker 1: my meat sauce.
Speaker 3: I don't want you to heat up your meat sauce
Speaker 3: while I'm doing a podcast, So I'd really appreciate if
Speaker 3: we just move things. It's a very small space, Andrew,
Speaker 3: I understand I don't have the room.
Speaker 1: You don't.
Speaker 3: And do you know why why you're a hoarder? Because
Speaker 3: I'm looking around.
Speaker 1: Now it's all cereal, nothing cereal. It's not all cereal.
Speaker 3: Yes, you have empty boxes, they're not empty bags.
Speaker 1: It's not empty.
Speaker 3: You have a fridge that doesn't work.
Speaker 1: It works. The little cabinet you don't put anything in.
Speaker 1: Look at it.
Speaker 3: You are choosing to hoard yet again, false, It is
Speaker 3: not false.
Speaker 1: It is everything in here is needed for this show.
Speaker 3: Okay, Scott, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Why do you rile me up?
Speaker 3: I'm not riling you up. Can't you tell that I'm
Speaker 3: speaking in a low tone. I'm not raising my voice.
Speaker 3: I am simply saying you're a hoarder, and you hoard
Speaker 3: things and you don't put anything away, and so therefore,
Speaker 3: when we try and record and I'm sitting in front
Speaker 3: of a microwave, that's not great for me.
Speaker 1: Are you done?
Speaker 3: I am done now, Thank you.
Speaker 1: Welcome to February. Today is the first. It's the first
Speaker 1: of a new month. What are you doing? You need
Speaker 1: a windshield?
Speaker 3: Just inhaling and exhaling, Scott, all right, don't do it
Speaker 3: into the mic. I can do what I want. I
Speaker 3: own these mics.
Speaker 1: It's annoying to people.
Speaker 3: Well, what's annoying to one person may not be annoying
Speaker 3: to another.
Speaker 1: All right, So this is Bulchat. It is the sister
Speaker 1: podcast to Serial Killers. That's the main show. This is
Speaker 1: the offshoot, even though apparently this has more listeners than
Speaker 1: serial Killers. Is that true? Yes, Oh, you better go
Speaker 1: take the call. I don't know, but you know what,
Speaker 1: you better take it. Take it right here on the air.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna turn here. Here you go. I turned it
Speaker 1: up for you.
Speaker 3: What you're really trying to rile me up today. No,
Speaker 3: you're doing it yourself. Hello Andrew speaking, Hi Andrew.
Speaker 1: Hold on one second, Hello, how are you good? Good? Hm? Oh, yes,
Speaker 1: he's doing it on the show, like that's what he's doing.
Speaker 1: He's having a conversation on the show with somebody. Now
Speaker 1: he's creeping out the door. I'll just keep going. I
Speaker 1: don't care. So I do have to defend myself with
Speaker 1: the hoarding thing. I'm not hoarding. People continue to send
Speaker 1: us cereal, and the space that we have here is
Speaker 1: probably one fifth, I would say, of the old studio.
Speaker 1: So yes, the cereals are starting to build up. Because
Speaker 1: I have a dilemma. So we try the cereals, we
Speaker 1: you know, take a couple of cupfuls of cereal and
Speaker 1: then that's it. Then what do we do with it?
Speaker 1: If it's not the best cereal in the world, it
Speaker 1: just sits around because nobody eats it. So I don't
Speaker 1: know whether or just maybe leave it in the kitchen.
Speaker 1: Do I want to still save the boxes because at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, while it's kind of cool
Speaker 1: to have the boxes from every cereal that we've tried,
Speaker 1: what am I doing with these boxes? I have right now.
Speaker 1: All the flattened boxes are in the storage clib you, okay,
Speaker 1: don't trip over that Cereal box. All the flatten boxes
Speaker 1: are in the storage closet, and I don't know what
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do with everything. So I was just telling
Speaker 1: our friends that I don't know if I should save
Speaker 1: every box. Again, I don't think you should. But it's
Speaker 1: cool to you, I think to Cereal people, okay, cool,
Speaker 1: Cereal fans okay cool, which is again a limited audience
Speaker 1: compared to the people that you work with.
Speaker 3: It's not just about you and what you think. It's
Speaker 3: cool work in an office with thirteen other twelve other people.
Speaker 3: It's your space, but that doesn't.
Speaker 1: Mean I've invited you in.
Speaker 3: But the problem is that they can see into your space.
Speaker 3: But people also have to come work into your space. No,
Speaker 3: So the more that you hoard you don't need not
Speaker 3: a horde. Listen, it's Cereal, Cereal, That's what we do.
Speaker 1: It is what we do.
Speaker 3: But we also should not hold on to things that
Speaker 3: we don't need. Cereal, we don't need it. We eat
Speaker 3: it for the show, Let's go put it in the
Speaker 3: kitchen afterwards. Let's give it up to the people who
Speaker 3: work here. People will eat the cereal.
Speaker 1: I just go to I don't think people will eat it.
Speaker 1: I think they will. I don't know about you, but
Speaker 1: I wouldn't go into a shared space i e. A
Speaker 1: kitchen or something like that and just eat from something
Speaker 1: that's open. If I saw it.
Speaker 3: I think everybody here knows that we do a ceial podcast.
Speaker 3: You can't go with the notion of Wow, it's fantastic
Speaker 3: and everyone knows this for being serial killers, that's why
Speaker 3: I have to have it. But then also say, I
Speaker 3: can't put it in the shared kitchen because nobody will
Speaker 3: know what these boxes are from all these like numerous boxes.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean radio people are a special breed. Radio
Speaker 1: people will eat anything. So to your statement, yes, we
Speaker 1: could leave it there. We should, and people will eat it.
Speaker 1: We should, but I don't. But but otherwise it just sits.
Speaker 1: There's cereal boxes just laying around. I've noticed the same
Speaker 1: ones over by the coffee machine. I didn't put those machines.
Speaker 1: I didn't put those there.
Speaker 3: You have like fifteen boxes in here. I want to
Speaker 3: why don't we take some and put them in the kitchen.
Speaker 3: This way it creates a little bit more space. For
Speaker 3: you here, because otherwise it's gonna get out of control
Speaker 3: really fast. You're gonna have no leg room, and it's
Speaker 3: just gonna get to a point where it's like, this
Speaker 3: is a lot, and why is there so much?
Speaker 1: I just I'm I'm torn with the boxes, okay, just
Speaker 1: because we've kept them all Okay, so I don't know
Speaker 1: if I could throw them out.
Speaker 3: That seems like a psychological issue that you should work
Speaker 3: out with someone, because you can get rid of them.
Speaker 3: There's no reason why you should be keeping the top
Speaker 3: these boxes. They What did you do with all the
Speaker 3: other boxes that you brought home to your house? I
Speaker 3: don't bring them home in a storage closet. Why are
Speaker 3: the boxes in the storage because?
Speaker 1: Scott, do something with them?
Speaker 3: What are we doing? It's been thy years. We haven't
Speaker 3: done anything with them, Scott, almost four. We need to
Speaker 3: get rid of them, Scott.
Speaker 1: But maybe somebody wants the collection. Wod he wants them? Scott.
Speaker 1: We really should just get rid of I guarantee you
Speaker 1: that somebody will right underneath this, okay, I would like
Speaker 1: the boxes. Okay, great, So then we'll send them to you.
Speaker 1: Has that sound Oh that's expensive? Okay?
Speaker 3: So then they're heavy, so then there's no solution as
Speaker 3: problems exactly.
Speaker 1: So that's see. See those are roadblocks.
Speaker 3: That you're putting up. We just really fix that. Yes,
Speaker 3: so let's get rid of the boxes. Okay, I don't,
Speaker 3: I can't. We can, Scott. I'll walk with you.
Speaker 1: We'll go.
Speaker 3: We'll throw them in a nice dumpster together. Or we
Speaker 3: could do like a nice bonfire and use them as cardboard.
Speaker 1: But one day I might need them. What would you
Speaker 1: need them for?
Speaker 3: Scott?
Speaker 1: When we're reminiscing, I can go home. What do you
Speaker 1: mean I have this? When would you reminisce on that?
Speaker 1: Scott's on video and it's audio. You could hear it.
Speaker 1: I like to reminisce. Yeah, but Scott, your attic have
Speaker 1: you gone every once? And I do every once in
Speaker 1: a while. How much is every once in a while?
Speaker 1: Maybe once a year. I go up into my attic
Speaker 1: and I sit down, I open a box and go oh,
Speaker 1: and I look at my things from preschool and I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, and brings back great memories.
Speaker 3: So what's cool about that, and maybe a little different
Speaker 3: that maybe we should talk about here is that's pictures
Speaker 3: of you, and that's a life experiences, things.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's things.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but those are nice pictures in my hand.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So what is a box certificate caramel Applejacks from
Speaker 1: twenty twenty going.
Speaker 3: To do for you?
Speaker 1: There's in there because it makes me think of you,
Speaker 1: and I just want to burn them. Yeah, so let's
Speaker 1: do that. If that'll make you feel better. It won't,
Speaker 1: and you don't want to make me feel better? Is
Speaker 1: if they go to a nice home, Scott, nobody's taking
Speaker 1: the box. I guarantee you somebody wants. You just said
Speaker 1: if somebody commented under the video, yeah, you would have
Speaker 1: send them to them. I'll part with them, Scott. You
Speaker 1: can have the collection. We will tell you question Scott. Yes,
Speaker 1: it is just boxes. We will interview and find out, Scott.
Speaker 1: We're not interviewing people because do you know what I've
Speaker 1: listened to the last Serial Killers episode that aired? Yeah,
Speaker 1: this week it was great. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Remember when you told me that I could put the
Speaker 3: email on your phone and then the show ended and
Speaker 3: I never put the email on your phone.
Speaker 1: I had to leave no, Scott.
Speaker 3: The goalpost keep changing, Scott. You keep moving things and
Speaker 3: you keep pushing them away. We need to put the
Speaker 3: email on your phone, because we're not interviewing people to
Speaker 3: see if they want our cardboard the ceial boxes.
Speaker 1: I think we should. I want to go to the
Speaker 1: home I want to should the best home should have them.
Speaker 3: I think what I'm going to do is let's start
Speaker 3: getting rid of some of the older boxes that we
Speaker 3: know we never want to see again.
Speaker 1: They're all integrated, they're all mixed, so.
Speaker 3: Let's take some that you like. I think you should keep,
Speaker 3: like your favorite fifty boxes.
Speaker 1: No, yeah, that won't work.
Speaker 3: I think it will, Scott.
Speaker 1: I see. I think somebody like Gabe from Serial Time
Speaker 1: he would appreciate them, and the ones that he doesn't have,
Speaker 1: he would proudly display them. And I was at a home.
Speaker 1: I want them to go to a good home. He's
Speaker 1: in a homes.
Speaker 3: We are in a not even what is this by five?
Speaker 3: This is smaller than ten by ten. This couldn't even
Speaker 3: fit a full size mattress. Scott, we really can't do this.
Speaker 3: And I'm being as calm as possible, and Jody, please
Speaker 3: come up to my desk after you hear this episode.
Speaker 3: I'm really trying my hardest for you, Jody.
Speaker 1: I want them to go to a nice place with
Speaker 1: somebody that will appreciate that, they'll go to the farm. Bud.
Speaker 3: They're gonna go roam free on the farmland.
Speaker 1: That means they're dead, no, Scott. Yes, when you say
Speaker 1: they're going to the farm technic, that means they're going
Speaker 1: to be extinguished.
Speaker 3: Technically you took the guts out of them. Right, So
Speaker 3: now we're just holding on two boxes.
Speaker 1: People keep saying they're gonna make quilts out of them? Scott,
Speaker 1: who's making a quill? Scott? Who's making the quilt? That's
Speaker 1: a big quilt. Who told you you're making the quilt?
Speaker 1: Lots of people say, oh, make a quilt? Yeah, who
Speaker 1: can do that? How can you make a qui cardboard?
Speaker 1: A cardboard quilt? How do you do that? What are
Speaker 1: you doing?
Speaker 3: You spit the quilt? Who would you talk to you
Speaker 3: about the quilt?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Are you on the email? Has anyone
Speaker 1: emailed us about it? Hang them up where Scott? Right?
Speaker 1: They're looking at up wall, Scott.
Speaker 3: That's not going to happen. Why it's not going to happen, Scott.
Speaker 3: You don't need more storage. You need to get rid
Speaker 3: of things.
Speaker 1: I want them to go to a good home. So
Speaker 1: if somebody wants them, then they can go to a
Speaker 1: good home.
Speaker 3: I don't think they're going to a good home. I
Speaker 3: think the home is in the trash where they'll get
Speaker 3: recycled to make more cereal boxes.
Speaker 1: Bud, No, yeah, I want them to be displayed. It's
Speaker 1: taking up space in our already limited office.
Speaker 3: How where blood, sweat and tears are in those boxes?
Speaker 3: My blood, sweat and tears are on the YouTube and
Speaker 3: what I upload a box? Really, there's no sentimental value.
Speaker 1: My tears are right here, right now, sitting next to you,
Speaker 1: because because I'm trying to tell you to get over
Speaker 1: these boxes.
Speaker 3: No, no, we need to get rid of the boxes.
Speaker 1: Great, Okay, We're going to do rambling for twenty minutes.
Speaker 1: We'll be back right after this. It's been ten minutes.
Speaker 3: We'll be right after the special after school special, Scott.
Speaker 1: That was he said special twice, and we're bad. What's
Speaker 1: going on?
Speaker 3: You said we rambled for twenty minutes. It's been twelve minutes.
Speaker 1: I said twelve, You said twenty. Whatever. I felt like twenty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because the hard truth sometimes feels like that.
Speaker 1: Maybe why don't you have hard truth? I here's the
Speaker 1: hard truth. Gotta throw out boxes. It was stupid.
Speaker 3: It's the after school special. We're trying to tell you
Speaker 3: to get rid of things because when I come into
Speaker 3: the studio and it seems frequent, now there's no room
Speaker 3: for me on This is.
Speaker 1: A big difference between me like snorting coke and jumping
Speaker 1: out a third floor window and then me saving cereal box.
Speaker 3: Well, you know what, that's why A and he highlighted
Speaker 3: both shows in both Hoarders and Intervention.
Speaker 1: It was on ABC. Hoarders After School Specials was on ABC.
Speaker 3: Well, what I'm saying is you're talking about with the
Speaker 3: snorting and all that other stuff, that's a show called Intervention.
Speaker 1: No, that was an after school special. The girl snorted
Speaker 1: coke and jumped out the window and died. What I'm
Speaker 1: saying is it's not the same as saving cereal box.
Speaker 3: Again, and this is what I'm trying to say. There
Speaker 3: are shows that deal with that, and then there's also
Speaker 3: shows that deal with hoarding. That's called hoarders. Both are
Speaker 3: both issues different.
Speaker 1: But look the moral of this story is if you
Speaker 1: want our boxes, they don't they need to go to
Speaker 1: a good home. They don't. I want them to be
Speaker 1: displayed somehow, And I want to be able to visit
Speaker 1: them should I ever want to. So if you are
Speaker 1: that person, Scott, why are you going to visit a box?
Speaker 1: Perhaps if you live in New York about.
Speaker 3: This, Scott, are you're going to visit a cardboard box?
Speaker 3: I'll deliver it that you're gonna What if the person's
Speaker 3: in like.
Speaker 1: Are you listening? But gosh, I said, if you live
Speaker 1: in the New York area the tri State, I'll deliver
Speaker 1: them to you. You can keep them in your home.
Speaker 1: That you could be our storage shed. How about that they.
Speaker 3: Don't need a storage shed because you know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 3: What all of these boxes, You're gonna start saving two
Speaker 3: So it just creates the same issue. Let me just
Speaker 3: set the new precedent that we don't do that. We
Speaker 3: put the cereal in the kitchen. People get to enjoy
Speaker 3: the cereal after we enjoy it. So this way we
Speaker 3: share the love. People could come to us now and
Speaker 3: say like, oh my god, that great value appleforter which
Speaker 3: we haven't tried yet. That's not if anything, you might
Speaker 3: need a cereal sack again because I don't want you
Speaker 3: to see yeah, so that so that could go in
Speaker 3: the kitchen someone could be like, oh my god, thank
Speaker 3: you so much for putting that in there.
Speaker 1: I loved it.
Speaker 3: But instead we're saying like I'm the Cereal Gremlin.
Speaker 1: What's gonna happen to my storage? Here's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you what's gonna happen. So one Saturday afternoon,
Speaker 1: I'm going to drive my car and I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: to IIKA and I'm gonna buy some shelving units now,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna come in here on a weekend no
Speaker 1: nobody's around, and I'm going to assemble them here and
Speaker 1: I'm going to start the car doing that.
Speaker 3: You're not doing that, says Scott. Really ask yourself why
Speaker 3: you need that to happen.
Speaker 1: Do you see other podcasts that have different themes? Do
Speaker 1: you really in the background they have things.
Speaker 3: I don't disagree with you sports.
Speaker 1: I've dug the helmets and the footballs and bats? Okay,
Speaker 1: did you know where there Surreal? Do?
Speaker 3: You're raising your voice, Scott?
Speaker 1: But people don't like that. But we need to have something,
Speaker 1: at least give me the backdrop. Let's do a banner. Fine,
Speaker 1: make it. We have the picture of the old place,
Speaker 1: make it. Do it.
Speaker 3: Let's do like a nice banner or just something serial killer.
Speaker 1: Say it's hot air, hot air. I don't see anything ever, well, Scott,
Speaker 1: because in the meantime, your hoarding is clogging up the
Speaker 1: closet and we just don't have nowhere to move on.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Can we just move on? Please? What else is going on?
Speaker 1: Just stop? You're breaking it? What am I doing with
Speaker 1: this microwave? Scott? Why does it bother you so much?
Speaker 1: Because Scott, I walked in and it was like this.
Speaker 1: It was on the table. It wasn't on the table.
Speaker 1: It was literally here, you're scratching it. And you said
Speaker 1: to me, what's the big deal? You can't record like this? Right, Scott,
Speaker 1: I'm sitting in front of a microwave. It's a nice microwave, but.
Speaker 3: You yourself has said no one's using your glands for
Speaker 3: said you don't want to use it.
Speaker 1: I heart read it's beautiful. But where's I'm gonna find
Speaker 1: a little table. I'm gonna set it up. Okay, we
Speaker 1: don't have to walk all the way to the kitchen
Speaker 1: to warm things all the way. I want to heat
Speaker 1: my soup during the show. I don't want to go
Speaker 1: all the way down the hall.
Speaker 3: I gotta say, ever since I started using a retinoid cream,
Speaker 3: I can notice the difference not so much. Aw, that's cute.
Speaker 1: You still have that alopecia.
Speaker 3: I will say, it's actually getting a little better.
Speaker 1: I don't see this, I think. So can we talk
Speaker 1: about you dressing up as what's her name? And where
Speaker 1: we can find that video?
Speaker 3: Hold on, let me move this giant microwave.
Speaker 1: I didn't put it there.
Speaker 3: Well, I moved it because you wanted this to be how.
Speaker 1: That we were origining, fingerprints all over it. Why are
Speaker 1: you doing this? Why do you like to destroy things?
Speaker 1: Is it being destroyed? It's brand new and not used.
Speaker 1: I used it once, I did. I warmed up soup
Speaker 1: in it. Not kidding. Okay, you're gonna break the round thing,
Speaker 1: the turntable. Well, it's not like anyway. Tell me about
Speaker 1: the dress up thing.
Speaker 3: It was a murder Mystery part.
Speaker 1: Okay, So what made you dress off? Is my aunt Gloria.
Speaker 3: I got chosen to be Mama Rosa in the Murder Mystery?
Speaker 1: Right? So you figured you just go all in?
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean it would be stupid to go
Speaker 3: because everybody else was getting dressed up. So I don't
Speaker 3: want to be the lame person. Like I'm confident in myself.
Speaker 3: I don't care if I have to wear a wig
Speaker 3: in a dress like that's lame. I bought at Cole's.
Speaker 3: I went to Cole's. I originally had a dress that
Speaker 3: I ordered from Amazon. And so you actually lost weight
Speaker 3: to get into it, which I loved.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did.
Speaker 3: Anyway, Yeah, and I felt great when I was able
Speaker 3: to fit in it. But then the problem was I
Speaker 3: lost weight here, but not here.
Speaker 1: Nothing beats a great pair of legs, you know.
Speaker 3: The problem was then my dress was a little tight
Speaker 3: in the bulge area. So that's when I said to myself,
Speaker 3: I can't go to a party with this.
Speaker 1: It's very uncomfortable.
Speaker 3: It'll be very distracting.
Speaker 1: Remember when I was Caitlyn Jenner. No, oh my god,
Speaker 1: it was so uncomfortable. Yeah, so uncomfortable. Well, so then
Speaker 1: I wound up going with my and Amanda to holes.
Speaker 1: My ball's hurt for like a month. I'm not any kidding, Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't know why, because they were so they were constricted.
Speaker 1: I was wearing pantyhose.
Speaker 3: Oh see, I didn't go that far. Yeah, I didn't
Speaker 3: think that was necessary for me. But anyway, I went
Speaker 3: to Coles. I got a nice jacket. I got a
Speaker 3: little black dress to fit underneath it.
Speaker 1: I think you looked great. Thank you so much.
Speaker 3: I've gotten so many compliments on my legs, so that
Speaker 3: was that was a really nice confidence booster.
Speaker 1: Can you pick me up a two inch binder mine broke?
Speaker 1: Do we have any in the storage closet?
Speaker 3: I don't know, hidden under your cereal boxes?
Speaker 1: But where can people see that video? Because I think
Speaker 1: it's great. Maybe we can post it the wire it's
Speaker 1: wrapped around my foot. It's like a constrictor.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, gosh. Anyway, it was very fun. I had
Speaker 3: a great time. Murder mystery parties are so much fun.
Speaker 1: I don't get into theme stuff.
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't know why you dress up for like
Speaker 3: most Halloweens.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, because I would go to this big Halloween
Speaker 1: party every year that's themed, like the theme night of
Speaker 1: the year. Yeah, but that's that is Halloween. I don't like.
Speaker 1: I don't really go to theme things. What do you what?
Speaker 3: What what you wear cereal shirts on a Cereal podcast? Well,
Speaker 3: I haven't want a Cereal shirt in a long time.
Speaker 1: Okay, tell me when.
Speaker 3: When it's like certain days or you know someone's coming in,
Speaker 3: you'll walk in and be.
Speaker 1: Like, hey, I mean, I'll wear the Lucky Charm shirt
Speaker 1: on Saint Patrick's Day. That's on the way. You'll see.
Speaker 1: So you get into theme stuff, this is it's the
Speaker 1: opposite of everything you just said. But I'm not going
Speaker 1: to go to a theme party. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: go to a you do. It's called Halloween. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to go to the super Bowl party and wear
Speaker 1: a jersey. Yeah, Eagles. I'm like, I'm not that guy.
Speaker 3: Okay, So what you're that's no, No, I don't. I
Speaker 3: don't know what you mean.
Speaker 1: What do you mean? You're just you're just talking what
Speaker 1: I I don't. I don't.

Speaker 1: We've broken records, like the longest time ever with no measurables.
Speaker 3: Ever been happier for no snow?

Speaker 1: and sleds and tubes sitting there sitting sorry, John at
Speaker 1: A's hard Yeah. Well, my friend Todd that owns Trio

Speaker 1: of ice melt, yeah, you know, and then you're stuck
Speaker 1: with fifteen cases and who's the storage for that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: who does. You either have to sell it at a
Speaker 1: deep discount at the end of winter or hang on
Speaker 1: to it and waste all that storage based like in
Speaker 1: our closet until next year. Yeah, it's crazy. You don't
Speaker 1: feel bad for mom and pops. I feel I don't

Speaker 1: Brown on your phone. It's a shoe shoo. I don't
Speaker 1: know if they still make Buster Browns.
Speaker 3: Know what I remember more than anything, hush puppies. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I remember I had to wear hush puppies because it
Speaker 3: was a private school and they wouldn't scuff the floors,
Speaker 3: so you had to get specifically hush puppies.
Speaker 1: Oshkosh gosh. They didn't sell them there. Look it up
Speaker 1: buster Buster Brown, Buster Brown. Yep, and it's gonna be
Speaker 1: the guy with his dog and he was the shoe dude.

Speaker 1: it's old school. Look at that right, look at it.
Speaker 1: Look at the dog.
Speaker 3: It's like, oh, that's exactly what he's Liker, that's your
Speaker 3: dog noise.
Speaker 1: We'll be back right after this, and we're back this.
Speaker 1: This episode is just I don't I kind of want
Speaker 1: to just like erase it and start over. Why. I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's just, you know, the fighting in the beginning,
Speaker 1: then the fighting on my part, and the Italian and
Speaker 1: the Jew thing, and you're funny tell me that I'm racist.
Speaker 1: I know that's the joke of it, but it's also not.
Speaker 1: A First of all, can we talk about racist for
Speaker 1: a second. I know that. Look I don't. I'm not
Speaker 1: getting into racism. I'm just saying people say you're racist.
Speaker 1: You know, like Italian is not a race.
Speaker 3: Just FYI, well it used to be a race. Yeah,
Speaker 3: same thing with Irish. So when immigrants first came over
Speaker 3: Irish Italian, they were all racist and then they just
Speaker 3: found it easier to just classify that's nationality. Well again,
Speaker 3: like you checked the box and have your own that
Speaker 3: would be like Italian, Irish or whatever.
Speaker 1: Show me one of these forms from from the twenties aps.
Speaker 1: Did you ever go to Ellis Island? I went there
Speaker 1: once when it was closed, got it? You didn't go
Speaker 1: to ell it's I passed by it and we went
Speaker 1: to the Statue of Liberty. Yeah, I went to the
Speaker 1: Statue Liberty. It was closed, but no, no, we walked
Speaker 1: all the way up to the crown. We had to
Speaker 1: see special tickets and we went all the way up
Speaker 1: the spiral staircase. It was cool. If you ever have
Speaker 1: the opportunity to do that, do that? What walk up
Speaker 1: to the crown of the Statue of Liberty. It's very
Speaker 1: limited and you have to get a ticket, and you
Speaker 1: have to you gotta be pretty, you know, feeble, because
Speaker 1: I mean you got to walk up a spiral staircase
Speaker 1: that's this wide, you know, and what are you doing?
Speaker 1: What are you looking up? I'm looking enough for you.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know. I know. Well, so like
Speaker 1: on the nineteen ten census it says race Italian.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it wound up happening because again you have
Speaker 3: to think in like the nineteen late eighteen hundreds, early
Speaker 3: nineteen hundreds, when all these immigrants were coming over. You
Speaker 3: had people moving here, but they didn't like nobody was
Speaker 3: really You went from having the country being all white
Speaker 3: from wherever people to then all of.
Speaker 1: A sudden they weren't from here. All these immigrants coming
Speaker 1: white people weren't from here. Well again, you're taking it
Speaker 1: came from places, yes, but on the name of the
Speaker 1: Penta and the Santa Maria.
Speaker 3: Okay, now that's Columbus. You're going back even more.
Speaker 1: He's also Italian. Okay?
Speaker 3: What is the marriage of newcomers endangered to national panic
Speaker 3: and led Americans to adopt him more No, going right
Speaker 3: here to adopt a more restrictive, politicized view of how
Speaker 3: to how whiteness was allocated. Journalists, politicians, social scientists, and
Speaker 3: immigrations officials embraced the habit separating ostensibly white Europeans into
Speaker 3: quote unquote races. Some were designated whiter and more worthy
Speaker 3: of citizenship than others. And it all has to go to,
Speaker 3: like unfortunately, back to slavery, how they viewed black people
Speaker 3: at the time.
Speaker 1: There's a whole I've just about this nowadays is when
Speaker 1: people cry racist, it's it's not a race, it's a
Speaker 1: religion or ethnicity.
Speaker 3: Well, yes, but I'm saying it was a joke.
Speaker 1: It was a joke. Well, ethnicity is a race, isn't
Speaker 1: it ethnic ethnicity? But nationality is not a race, religion,
Speaker 1: and nationality are not racist? Again all I was trying
Speaker 1: to say racist.
Speaker 3: Okay, Wow, we're really We're really going a lot of
Speaker 3: places in this episode.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Anyway, back to snow. Don't you don't you just
Speaker 1: love like the pure No? No, now, when snow like
Speaker 1: a fresh snowfall, I need to have at least one
Speaker 1: good storm, Like if I can't break if I can't
Speaker 1: break out the snowblower, fail fail, why immediately? Now, then
Speaker 1: why do you live here?
Speaker 3: I mean, I was born here. It's kind of close.
Speaker 3: You could have just moved to see the rapids where
Speaker 3: there's even more snow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's great, terrible. I don't like the snow.
Speaker 3: I don't like it because I like when it first
Speaker 3: happens and because you're got cozy feelings. But then within
Speaker 3: two hours I'm wondering how I'm going to traverse around this,
Speaker 3: and then it sticks and then I'm stuck having to
Speaker 3: like walk around gross black snow.
Speaker 1: Where you live and I work in the city.
Speaker 3: Everywhere I work in New York City, there is disgusting
Speaker 3: snow everywhere.
Speaker 1: I could see you, like in Santa Monica. No, no,
Speaker 1: you're not a West coast coast.
Speaker 3: It's too slow slow. Yeah, it's too slow paced. I
Speaker 3: like the convenience of everything here.
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty convenient. I mean there's no city
Speaker 1: like New York anywhere you know where you just walk
Speaker 1: out and things are open. It too like La is way, way,
Speaker 1: way too big. I don't like that you have to
Speaker 1: drive everywhere, like Vancouver. I would move to Vancouver in
Speaker 1: a second. I thought that it was like perfect Tim
Speaker 1: Horton's all day. I love Vancouver.
Speaker 3: If you are seeing in Canada and you have a
Speaker 3: I guess an open position somewhere where I could somehow
Speaker 3: get Canadian citizenship, so I could somehow move to Vancouver.
Speaker 1: Hit me up, and if you live in Canada and
Speaker 1: you want our cereal boxes, that will be difficult, but
Speaker 1: I'll get them to you if it's a good home.
Speaker 3: Oh, that would be a fun little road trip. Oh,
Speaker 3: I would love to drive to road on the road
Speaker 3: to Canada.
Speaker 1: That would be great. That would be nice. I've only
Speaker 1: been to Canada once and it was Prince Edward Island,
Speaker 1: which isn't really Canada. I want to go to like Canada, Canada.
Speaker 1: I want to go to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls.
Speaker 3: Have you been that's Toronto, Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know the geography. That's fine. I don't know.
Speaker 1: That's like I want to go to Sascatchwan because I
Speaker 1: like the name.
Speaker 3: That's I feel like that's west of Toronto.
Speaker 1: I would never know how to spell that. Saskatchewan. Yeah,
Speaker 1: something with a cue a lot and asks, Hey, if
Speaker 1: you want to go to Raman, I'll go with you.
Speaker 1: So we got to end this soon. Rice bowls. I
Speaker 1: don't want a rice bowl. I don't know. I really
Speaker 1: love that chili chicken. I just want some differing chili
Speaker 1: chicken rama. Oh, let me make a reservation right now. Well,
Speaker 1: that one when you're walking just wants to go see
Speaker 1: if he's here. He is, I'm to call him.
Speaker 3: Why don't we just ask him after this? Just call
Speaker 3: him real quick because Nate might want to go.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's still here. Nate still here?
