Speaker 1: know what you're talking about. After this episode, listen to

Speaker 1: funeral and that I went to and the guy the
Speaker 1: funeral flower flower rangement. The flower rangements were a gun,
Speaker 1: a cigar, a golf course, and a middle finger. I
Speaker 1: got fist giving the middle finger, all in flowers, I said,
Speaker 1: four ft tall. But so many people when I posted
Speaker 1: the pictures at the Brooklyn Boys all over our social media, Twitter,
Speaker 1: Instagram and Facebook, give you the trifect on that one,
Speaker 1: they were telling all the comments were like, wow, I
Speaker 1: didn't I envisioned them to be big. But I thought
Speaker 1: you guys were like, you know, going overboard with your descriptions. No, man,
Speaker 1: that's that big, big tall ship. Yeah, just unbelievable. Seeing
Speaker 1: it again, I laughed again. I have to say, I
Speaker 1: gotta look at that our social media at the Brooken Boys,

Speaker 1: the video the visual companion um. But robin on Margolis huge.
Speaker 1: She's hilarious because she picks out everything she is wrong. Well,
Speaker 1: according to her, she said that the ring okay, so
Speaker 1: it was a fist giving a middle finger, and the
Speaker 1: middle finger was facing us, and it was again it
Speaker 1: was all made of flowers. But it's a right hand
Speaker 1: and the wedding rings should be on the left hand.
Speaker 1: That's right. So the ring finger has the ring on
Speaker 1: on the finger, and she's like, well, wait a second,
Speaker 1: it's at the finger. The ring goes on the left hand. Well,
Speaker 1: people wear rings on their right hand. It doesn't have
Speaker 1: a wedding ring. But this, well, okay, it's not a
Speaker 1: wedding ring. It's just a ring on the finger. Maybe
Speaker 1: the guy was known, you know, like you know, kiss
Speaker 1: the ring some some people, some Italians like the water ring.
Speaker 1: I'm lifting my middle finger now to see if it
Speaker 1: matches in a second. Mm, actually, no, you're right. It
Speaker 1: is a right hand so it rings on their right hand.
Speaker 1: It doesn't say this is my wedding ring. Okay, but
Speaker 1: I assumed it was the wedding ring. Now okay, it's
Speaker 1: move on, all right, whatever anyway, whatever, Thank you, Robin.

Speaker 1: right there. Hey, so I did a podcast guest appearance. Wait,
Speaker 1: let me know when you get to picture what we'll
Speaker 1: talk about in a minute. I did a guest appearance
Speaker 1: on a podcast for our friend Tom Kelly. Tom Kelly
Speaker 1: works for the comedy company, the comedy division of our
Speaker 1: radio company, Right Premiere Comedy, and he works in one
Speaker 1: division and I work at another, and I I sort
Speaker 1: of helped him get the job. And he's a stand
Speaker 1: up comic and he has been the warm up comic
Speaker 1: for the View and Good Morning America and Late Show
Speaker 1: with Stephen Colbert. If you've never been to a taping
Speaker 1: of a show, a warm up comic is the guy
Speaker 1: who entertains the crowd, usually like the twenty minutes before
Speaker 1: the actual filming starts, tells you when to laugh, when
Speaker 1: to clap, gets you in a good mood. Right. Funny guy. Tom,
Speaker 1: he's a good guy. He's the war He has people
Speaker 1: up guys. So he has um a website. He's on
Speaker 1: social media at at Tom Kelly, k yellow Y at
Speaker 1: Tom Kelly Show like that plug. I know he will
Speaker 1: and I think the website is Tom Kelly Show dot com.
Speaker 1: You should be able to find I And I tweeted
Speaker 1: it today on on October twenty from at David Brody
Speaker 1: and it was supposed to be he begged you know,
Speaker 1: you didn't beg me. And he's like, oh, could you
Speaker 1: please find time for a twenty minute podcast? All he
Speaker 1: needs twenty minutes? Twenty minutes? And I said, sure, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll find twenty minutes. It took a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: we found time for it. And he likes to eat.
Speaker 1: He normally does podcast without a guest. He talks about
Speaker 1: whatever he wants to talk about, which is very difficult,
Speaker 1: by the way. Yeah, just do your own podcast by
Speaker 1: yourself and not anyone's crime drama or anything. It's h
Speaker 1: And so he said, you know, I'd like to interview
Speaker 1: people that I feel influential in my career. And then
Speaker 1: I look up to and I'm not tunting my own horn.
Speaker 1: But that's why he wanted me, he says that on
Speaker 1: the podcast, And so I had to find twenty minutes
Speaker 1: to do a podcast with him. Now, I don't know
Speaker 1: if you're a member. Oh, we talked about it on
Speaker 1: this podcast. I want to say about thirty episodes ago
Speaker 1: that I was asked to do fifteen minutes an interview
Speaker 1: of fifteen minutes on a science fiction podcast, right, I
Speaker 1: remember that, and I ended up doing an hour and something.
Speaker 1: Remember that he only posted fifteen minutes and put the
Speaker 1: rest of it behind a paywall and made money off
Speaker 1: of it. But it was because you know scary, You
Speaker 1: and I talk, We go off on tangents, we get
Speaker 1: on a roll. And so my twenty minutes with Tom,
Speaker 1: how long do you think we ended up recording you
Speaker 1: and Tom? I mean, well, knowing you and knowing Tom
Speaker 1: the way both of you don't like to you know
Speaker 1: you know you don't tell it, you guys, go joke
Speaker 1: for joke. I want to say, seventy five minutes, you
Speaker 1: are correct? How about that? See my my mental calculator
Speaker 1: is sharp today. Let's put it this way. I did.
Speaker 1: I spoke to him about my free dessert theory because
Speaker 1: something came up in the conversation and you wanted you
Speaker 1: to explain it, and and I explained, which he loved. By
Speaker 1: the way, he apparably never heard the full blown free
Speaker 1: dessert explanation. And I think he's making that its own episode.
Speaker 1: So he's gonna cut up the hundred and fifteen minutes
Speaker 1: into multiple episodes. But check it out after you listen
Speaker 1: to this to future hey, listen, don't don't put it
Speaker 1: on the back, don't put it ahead of Brooken Boys episodes.
Speaker 1: But it's I think it's entertaining. He is he going
Speaker 1: to take the rest to that footage and put the
Speaker 1: paywall and charge people. Yeah right, the audio. Yeah, No,
Speaker 1: he's gonna split it up. No, we had a good time.
Speaker 1: We had a good time. But episode one thirteen of
Speaker 1: the Uh Tom Kelly Show podcast, and feel free to
Speaker 1: check out other episodes. I I haven't listened to previous,
Speaker 1: but I might. Uh. Tom has been a friend for
Speaker 1: a long time, so I'm gonna get that out of
Speaker 1: the way. But I just wanted to say typical David
Speaker 1: Brodie fashion. Uh. He mentioned wicker and of course I
Speaker 1: went off on a wicker tangent. Wait you went off
Speaker 1: on a wicker tangent here on this podcast? Did I? Yeah? Oh,
Speaker 1: what was I talking about? Do you remember? It was?
Speaker 1: It was the wicker furniture from that place that you
Speaker 1: was it Fairway? You got the wer you got the
Speaker 1: second one, and the chair from Wayfair. It was that way,
Speaker 1: way Fair. It wasn't really wicker. It wasn't no, it
Speaker 1: was it was black and it was like an eggshell.
Speaker 1: That's what I said on the podcast with him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course get the picture I sent you. I did.
Speaker 1: I'm staring at it right now. Okay, So I get
Speaker 1: all my phone charging cables. And by the way, this
Speaker 1: is a pet peeve of mine at one more pet
Speaker 1: peeve of mine. My kids do this and I've met
Speaker 1: other people that do it also. They asked for a
Speaker 1: phone charger, but they mean the cable. So this, yeah, right,
Speaker 1: so you sent me They say, can I borrow your charger,
Speaker 1: which I mean is can I borrow your cable? The
Speaker 1: chargers the box charges the box, right, But my kids,
Speaker 1: I need another another charger, and I give him a charger.
Speaker 1: They go, no, no, the long one. I go, that's
Speaker 1: the cable, okay. So I was buying the new ones
Speaker 1: because eventually they wear out or they break whatever. And
Speaker 1: so this is an ad for a three pack of
Speaker 1: six ft charging cables. And in the picture it shows
Speaker 1: the three tops which is the USB part U S A,
Speaker 1: and the three bottoms which is the iPhone chord connector
Speaker 1: lightning the lightning cable. Right, So it shows you the
Speaker 1: three tops and the three bottoms and the same sounding
Speaker 1: looks like the three of the same cable, right. And
Speaker 1: I always checked the reviews. I know they are all
Speaker 1: the good ones aren't always real, but the negative ones
Speaker 1: tend to be real, tend to be so I like
Speaker 1: to read a few a few positives to see if
Speaker 1: they're real, a few negatives. And these cables were not
Speaker 1: getting five stars, so I wanted to check out the reviews.
Speaker 1: And one of the negative views says deceptive description. The
Speaker 1: package only contained three pieces, yet the picture shows six pieces.
Speaker 1: Why is that? I'm very disappointed. You fucking moron. So
Speaker 1: this idiot gave a bad review on Amazon because it
Speaker 1: shows six cables. No, you fucking moron, that's the other
Speaker 1: end of the cable, you asshole. Oh my god, how
Speaker 1: stupid can you be? And Unfortunately, unlike Instagram, he kiss
Speaker 1: On doesn't let you write a comment on someone's comment.
Speaker 1: Otherwise you would have tore into that person. Oh it's
Speaker 1: killing me, killing me that I can't come. That sucks.
Speaker 1: They should really allow that, Yeah, they should, they should,
Speaker 1: but they do not. Oh my god, I'm so angry. Yeah,
Speaker 1: me too. I'm living. I'm living. To find a way
Speaker 1: to make a nasty comment. You could find screen name,
Speaker 1: do some research, catch him on Instagram or something, or
Speaker 1: slide into a m at loving soul. You know he's
Speaker 1: got at least a handle. I think it's a woman
Speaker 1: loving soul. She's so loving, she's complaining about not getting
Speaker 1: She's the opposite. She's doing the opposite of what her
Speaker 1: handle says. I love those people too, and it's you
Speaker 1: know what? You know? How much the three the three
Speaker 1: cables are? How much you wanted six? What pieces of
Speaker 1: ship are you're looking to buy? A dollar a cable?
Speaker 1: And don't tell me. You buy cables the dollar store
Speaker 1: for a dollar and they're great. They know they're terrible.
Speaker 1: They last six months and you don't realize it's gonna
Speaker 1: cause your next fire. Next time, you know, the whole
Speaker 1: cab it will be burning down the cables. Or there's
Speaker 1: no difference. There's plenty of differences charging time, and there's
Speaker 1: long gemt. A lot of people don't realize cables charge
Speaker 1: at different times, so you can plug in a good cable.
Speaker 1: Might say you've done my charge in forty seven minutes.
Speaker 1: I've done my research on that. Then you charge, you
Speaker 1: put in the shitty cable and it says your phone
Speaker 1: will completely charging two hours and nine minutes. Certain differences
Speaker 1: they move it, they move it certain speeds and old
Speaker 1: cables versus new the connection. You've got to check that.
Speaker 1: There's a YouTube. It's a great YouTube video. Uh. And
Speaker 1: for the iPhone users listening to this and I'm talking
Speaker 1: to you guys, uh, let me say not you not
Speaker 1: you brodie. But I will say there's a great YouTube
Speaker 1: video about the iPhone chargers. Oh man, I should actually
Speaker 1: post that. But it shows you all the cables in
Speaker 1: which one is the best one? And honestly, right now,
Speaker 1: the fastest charging cable able for an iPhone is the
Speaker 1: the new larger not the regular ice cube, the little
Speaker 1: square one, the old school one. There's a brand new
Speaker 1: one that looks a little bit larger from Apple. From
Speaker 1: Apple that comes with the right that one into the
Speaker 1: its native UH wire into USB. What is it US?
Speaker 1: But it is because it's just perfect frequency for the
Speaker 1: far correct rights USBC connector to lightning into. What is
Speaker 1: the frequency, Kenneth, I don't know. I think that was
Speaker 1: an R reference. No, actually that is the reference for
Speaker 1: uh rather, but rather it's an R E M song though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so so uh as we go to a commercial break,
Speaker 1: the newsman Dan the commercial break, people get excited about
Speaker 1: commercials coming out. You know what, fuck it, I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna hit him with it. So I was saying mean
Speaker 1: as I was saying before the commercials, No, Dan Rather?
Speaker 1: Uh was? It was legendary newsman Dan Rather. Didn't someone
Speaker 1: try and to try and shoot him. They loved him.
Speaker 1: They were like they were sort of almost kidnapping him, Yes,
Speaker 1: And all he remembered was one of them kept asking
Speaker 1: him what the frequency was? What is the frequency, Kenneth?
Speaker 1: What is it right? So R. E. M Wrote a
Speaker 1: song what's the frequency can and she said, which makes
Speaker 1: no sense. They just threw it in the song. I
Speaker 1: can't believe that. I mean, I can't believe one random
Speaker 1: thing leads to another random thing and then they then fallout.
Speaker 1: Boy when when with the line in the song, she
Speaker 1: tastes just like you only sweeter write something like that.
Speaker 1: It's from the Jennifer Garner movie thirty going on thirteen
Speaker 1: or thirteen going on thirty. It's a line from a movie,
Speaker 1: but it means nothing in the song doesn't really make sense.
Speaker 1: It's just something that's thrown there as a pop culture reference,
Speaker 1: like yeah in case, all right, all right, Yeah, Bannaking
Speaker 1: ladies do that all the time. They just throw ship
Speaker 1: and you're like, what are you talking about? Yeah, their
Speaker 1: entire being is that? No, just a song one week,
Speaker 1: one week classic song. That's my favorite song from them.
Speaker 1: Well that's it's a lot of it's non sequitors, back
Speaker 1: to back to back. Wh Is there a a a
Speaker 1: hoser because they're Canadian, but they have they have a
Speaker 1: fantastic catalog of music as some of their stuff is funny.
Speaker 1: They do comedy songs and some of the stuff is
Speaker 1: just very catchy and poignant. They run the gamut, they
Speaker 1: run the gamut. Hey, last weekend, I went to go
Speaker 1: see Tyler Henry. You know Tyler Henry is I do not,
Speaker 1: You're not, You're not gonna you don't. Okay. He's a
Speaker 1: Hollywood medium. He's the guy oh Irene teller story in
Speaker 1: the air. Bullshit. Okay, I knew it. See, this is
Speaker 1: why I'm bringing it up, because I knew you were
Speaker 1: sitting there stewing in your own juices. Yeah, my stewing
Speaker 1: in your own juices. So Tyler Henry Hollywood medium, and
Speaker 1: he had a TV show he went around Hollywood, Hollywood
Speaker 1: me nothing. My girlfriend paid for the tickets. This was
Speaker 1: her idea, not mine. So Brodie, I was like you
Speaker 1: in this case, I went in as a nonbeliever. I'm
Speaker 1: sitting there like, okay, here we go. So if you
Speaker 1: don't know him again. He had a show where he
Speaker 1: would knock on Hollywood doors go inside, and then he
Speaker 1: would literally when you say Hollywood doors, you mean the
Speaker 1: doors of Hollywood doors of stars and celebrities, and he
Speaker 1: would do readings for them and people would come through,
Speaker 1: like in their family, and then they would film the
Speaker 1: show and you would see these actors and actresses, and
Speaker 1: even though they are actors and actresses, they weren't acting
Speaker 1: when when Iced Tea and Coco were there and he
Speaker 1: was like telling them all about you know, so and
Speaker 1: so wanted to get through and and say the following thing.
Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't hurt that Iced Tea and Coco
Speaker 1: or a little cookie to begin with that they might
Speaker 1: be sust What I'm saying is I went into that
Speaker 1: audience as a nonbeliever, ended up believing everything this guy said.
Speaker 1: This guy really is a clairvoyant bridge to sell you.
Speaker 1: The second half of the show. Now, I I thoroughly
Speaker 1: enjoyed it, but the second half of the show was
Speaker 1: you know, he was the circus guy. There was a
Speaker 1: sucker born every minute. Okay, sorry, what what time did
Speaker 1: you go to the show? It? You go ahead? No,
Speaker 1: You're gonna offend a lot of people here, because no,
Speaker 1: I'm not offending them. I'm only offending you. Some people
Speaker 1: have a way about them. They have they've got a
Speaker 1: way about them. Sorry, Billy, are you not? Are you not?
Speaker 1: Am I not entertained gladiator? Yes? I'm entertained on Okay,
Speaker 1: so I wanna. I'm gonna give you an example. So,
Speaker 1: so basically, people and you know, come to him, the spirits,
Speaker 1: you know, whatever. So you know, so if he's in
Speaker 1: a house, it's concentrated and focused. The energies are focused
Speaker 1: on that family. Okay. In the audience, he got eight
Speaker 1: hundred people there, so he's got to fight off all
Speaker 1: these spirits and people trying to come through all there.
Speaker 1: But he is right. So he walks around, he paces
Speaker 1: the floor. He goes, all right, I'm being pulled in
Speaker 1: this direction, and I'm being pulled in this direction. Wait,
Speaker 1: I'm sensing the letter M. Wait. No, So then he goes, Mary,
Speaker 1: is it Martin. I'm gonna give you one example he
Speaker 1: did Jane, Yes, Jane has an end. It's like an M. Yes, Jane.
Speaker 1: He did this five times, so so finally you know,
Speaker 1: five different people. Okay, but I'm gonna give you one example. Okay,
Speaker 1: he says. He says, I'm seeing uh is there? Okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: there's a Bob and Bob. I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: a if it's somebody in the audience, or if it's
Speaker 1: someone's father or somebody past. Who's bob um? Okay? So
Speaker 1: now there's a problem because there was a Bob died
Speaker 1: in a really terrible, tragic way. But then there's there's
Speaker 1: a second layer where something really bad happened after that,
Speaker 1: where oh, no, it's bad. And then now the triple
Speaker 1: there's a trifecta of bad things, a series of bad events.
Speaker 1: Uh is there? And then three or four people from
Speaker 1: the audience kind of come to the microphone in the
Speaker 1: middle and say, yeah, that's me, that's me, And then
Speaker 1: he sends one person away, and then he goes, maybe
Speaker 1: it's you, and then he finally he kind of auditions
Speaker 1: them or something. And then finally the guy gets to
Speaker 1: the microphone that he wants to talk up to. When
Speaker 1: he goes, yes, uh, what's your name? He goes, Oh,
Speaker 1: I'm Jerry. Okay. He goes, who's Bob, Bob's my father, Okay,
Speaker 1: Bob's your father. Okay. So, um, I understand Bob died
Speaker 1: several years ago. And then the guy shakes his head, Yes,
Speaker 1: Bob died several years ago. My father, Yeah, year two thousand, um,
Speaker 1: and um, how did he die? And then uh the
Speaker 1: guy The guy says, oh, yeah, well he had got
Speaker 1: into a car accident or something. Or it was it
Speaker 1: was tragic. Okay, great, that matches up next thing, you know,
Speaker 1: Tyler Henry then says, and I understand there was a
Speaker 1: lot of family belongings to a lot of things that
Speaker 1: meant a lot to him, and uh they were lost
Speaker 1: in a in a in a terrible, terrible house fire recently.
Speaker 1: The guy stood there, put his hands over his mouth
Speaker 1: and just lost it. He was like, that's my father. Yes,
Speaker 1: and yes, there was a bedfire and we feel terribly
Speaker 1: about it. We lost everything that belonged to him, all
Speaker 1: the mementos. So Tyler was like, well, that's why he
Speaker 1: came through today tonight to tell you that your father said.
Speaker 1: These are just material things. They mean nothing. Stop stressing
Speaker 1: over it. It's okay, don't worry about it. And then
Speaker 1: the third layer was something that Tyler didn't say out loud,
Speaker 1: but he kind of alluded to, was like, I guess
Speaker 1: there was a family fight over money or something to
Speaker 1: that effect. But he didn't want to get too personal
Speaker 1: because he's in front of eight hundred people and he's
Speaker 1: telling this guy's life story. So okay, so that so so,
Speaker 1: and then and then you know, there was a big
Speaker 1: round of applause anyway times that by five five different
Speaker 1: people who he owned in on. This guy's a genius.
Speaker 1: He actually has a gift. Okay, so let me play
Speaker 1: Devil's advocate for you. Number one. The guy in the
Speaker 1: audience could have been a plant, could have been you
Speaker 1: don't know, number too if he was a clairvoyant. Right,
Speaker 1: he said, Oh, your father died tragically somehow. Right, listen
Speaker 1: to your story back when you when we record this
Speaker 1: and you post it, you said, yeah, my father died
Speaker 1: of what his car accident? Right? But I sent something
Speaker 1: else happened? Something else? No, no, he he had said
Speaker 1: that before he even got to this guy. No, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: he said what else happened? And who who told the
Speaker 1: story about the house fire? Oh, Tyler did Tyler? Did?
Speaker 1: You said? The guy told? Tyler did the guy said
Speaker 1: there was a house fire? There was he the belongings
Speaker 1: were lost? Years later? But who told that story that
Speaker 1: the belongings were lost? The guy? You said? The guy did? No,
Speaker 1: Tyler did the guy? The guy? The guy told the
Speaker 1: story of him dying in a car accident. He honed
Speaker 1: it on and there right, Tyler got it right. So
Speaker 1: Tyler out of nowhere said, and I see that all
Speaker 1: his belongings were destroyed. Oh yeah, he said that before
Speaker 1: the guy got on stage. Before the guy there was
Speaker 1: a secondary thing and maybe a third thing. You didn't say,
Speaker 1: he said, And there was a house fire. You didn't
Speaker 1: say that. You said, so you said something else happened,
Speaker 1: and then you said. The guy said, yeah, the house
Speaker 1: burned down. We lost everything. No, Tyler actually told him,
Speaker 1: said that, said in an inquisitive fashion. Was it a
Speaker 1: house fire? That like almost was confirming what he was
Speaker 1: hearing from his dad that was talking to you. Sure?
Speaker 1: All right, Maybe I didn't hear it right now, but
Speaker 1: are you sure? Yeah? Yeah, Robin was there, my girlfriend
Speaker 1: was there? No? No, no, no, no, no, I'm asking
Speaker 1: if you're sure you just told that story just now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Tyler said you lost everything in the house. Yes, he
Speaker 1: he said, at point blank, before the guy could even
Speaker 1: say all right, I'm convinced, thank you. I'm not convinced.
Speaker 1: You're not convinced. Of course, you thought the guy was
Speaker 1: a plan. There's nothing in the human brain genetically that
Speaker 1: any scientist is every how, Okay, okay, look, let's slices.
Speaker 1: If you believe it, that's fine. If you get enjoyment,
Speaker 1: if you've had it done and you believe that's fine.
Speaker 1: I'm a skeptic, that's all. I believe that I went
Speaker 1: in half hearted and I came out a full onbeliever. Alright.
Speaker 1: But but the only thing, the reason why I was
Speaker 1: was bringing it up was not just to say. It
Speaker 1: was more about do I want this in a public forum,
Speaker 1: because if you think about because the people, there were
Speaker 1: some people that started walking out, and the reason why
Speaker 1: is because a lot of people come there. Well, there's
Speaker 1: a lot of desperation in the room because a lot
Speaker 1: of people want to come there for answers and closure
Speaker 1: in their personal life. You walk into you're in the
Speaker 1: middle of Atlantic City. You're in the middle of Atlantic City,
Speaker 1: which is great and exciting stuff, but no, it's a casino,
Speaker 1: this craziness going on. And then you enter this theater
Speaker 1: and you feel like you're walking into a funeral and
Speaker 1: everyone's and there's this air of desperation, and then the
Speaker 1: show starts and then everyone thinks that they're going to
Speaker 1: be called on when in reality five people got there,
Speaker 1: got their readings done, um everyone else. But it brings
Speaker 1: peace to people because everyone else is you know what,
Speaker 1: my loved one must be out there as well, because
Speaker 1: everyone's loved ones around right. Well, there's that, But a
Speaker 1: lot of people were like, the loved one know to
Speaker 1: go to Atlantic City? How did Bob know to go
Speaker 1: to Atlantic City? No, because because um, Tyler is a clairvoyant,
Speaker 1: so he just kind of he whoever's in the room.
Speaker 1: Bob's spirit was like the the sun was there in
Speaker 1: the audience. So you think the spirits just follow you
Speaker 1: around forever? Yeah? I think so what if they have
Speaker 1: two kids, they're always with us, They're always with all kids.
Speaker 1: Eight kids, you can't be in eight places. There was
Speaker 1: energy in the room and and Tyler felt it. All
Speaker 1: I'm saying is but but my one, that was my
Speaker 1: my one. Two criticisms are a everybody you know, five
Speaker 1: people end up getting satisfied. Everybody else walks out like
Speaker 1: what the fuck? You know? It's kind of deflating, And
Speaker 1: do you really know? You're listening to these stories and
Speaker 1: the only thing you can be excited about is that
Speaker 1: he got it right. That's a payoff. But if it
Speaker 1: was me, let's say, like my aunt Millie came through,
Speaker 1: I would have been scared shitless because I don't want
Speaker 1: to go up onto the microphone and be I don't
Speaker 1: want him doing this reading in front of eight hundred people,
Speaker 1: are saying things that I don't want to be said,
Speaker 1: or you know what you're doing your aunt Milly? Do
Speaker 1: you guys make out what's going on? Dude? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like, I don't want I don't want gross.
Speaker 1: I just think it's a weird. I think that a
Speaker 1: reading is a private thing, and the fact that you
Speaker 1: have eight hundred people in an audience, Uh, it's kind
Speaker 1: of to me slightly icky because it's not my I
Speaker 1: don't I would want it done in private. I want
Speaker 1: the reading done, but I wouldn't want I wanted to
Speaker 1: come over my house and hang out with me and
Speaker 1: my family and then we talk. I don't want it
Speaker 1: on a microphone in front of eight hundred strangers. So
Speaker 1: to me, that's where he lost. Can we at least
Speaker 1: agree that nobody goes to these things unless they've got
Speaker 1: unresolved issues. For the most part, I would agree with that.
Speaker 1: What's Robbin's unresolved? She said, it's pure entertainment for her.
Speaker 1: I asked you that same question. But but you have
Speaker 1: to realize most of those people are going for salvation
Speaker 1: or hope, and that's great. I'm a big fan of
Speaker 1: anything that brings people peace, as long as it doesn't
Speaker 1: cost you your bank account, you know, as long like
Speaker 1: you see these scams on television, these documentaries, these uh
Speaker 1: dateline shows where you know, people get sold their homes
Speaker 1: to pay a clairvoyant to tell them about their daughter, uh,
Speaker 1: and you know it was a scam. So as long
Speaker 1: as you don't spend a lot of money and it
Speaker 1: brings you happy, I'm fine with it. It's no different
Speaker 1: than religion in my mind, whether you believe in religion
Speaker 1: or God or whatever, if it brings you in her peace,
Speaker 1: I'm fine with it. I would never tell anyone don't
Speaker 1: believe in that religion or what my My beliefs are irrelevant,
Speaker 1: what what I believe in, what I practice, if it
Speaker 1: brings you happiness, and you don't force your beliefs on me,
Speaker 1: God bless you, it's it's only when it's only when
Speaker 1: you force your you know, you believe that the seventy
Speaker 1: five rules you were taught have to be for everyone,
Speaker 1: if only we can all respect each other in other
Speaker 1: facets of life as well. With those same rules. I'm
Speaker 1: a listen I I expect everyone unless their grammar is bad,
Speaker 1: then I have to tell them boys podcast. I'm loving
Speaker 1: that jingle, the one we played earlier before the commercials.
Speaker 1: People know what I mean. The one that played before
Speaker 1: the commercials, the Fabreeze one. Yeah, I like that to
Speaker 1: be happy fa breeze La la la. That's not what
Speaker 1: they say in the commercial. That's not how they sing it.
Speaker 1: La la, No, not follow Lot's on Christmas in a
Speaker 1: weird mood tonight. Why I got my parents blown up
Speaker 1: my phone? They're hanging out. You know, my parents are
Speaker 1: empty they're empty nesters. So they're in del Ray right
Speaker 1: now with their uh that's Florida, Delray Beach, Florida, with
Speaker 1: the other couple. The other couple. Now that my father's
Speaker 1: they swing with my father's you know something. My father's
Speaker 1: known him since he was a teenager and then they
Speaker 1: were double dating together. This like my my my parents
Speaker 1: have a swing, Like do you think your parents? Oh

Speaker 1: out with that other girl tonight. Sp oh stop it.
Speaker 1: Well anyway, Bobby and Carol and Rosanne and Tony there
Speaker 1: together in Delray Beach. So I'm helping them get to
Speaker 1: uh into this hotel. I met a friend of Bob
Speaker 1: and Carroll's I told you that, yes you did, Yes
Speaker 1: you did. Yeah. If I know you like you work
Speaker 1: on a show, do you know? I always find that
Speaker 1: fascinating when people come up to you and you know you,
Speaker 1: like as soon as they find out I'm working at
Speaker 1: Z one hundred in New York and like, I have
Speaker 1: you ever met that Elvis Durant? Yeah, so I get
Speaker 1: I get that a lot, not being a host of
Speaker 1: the show or on air all the time. You ever
Speaker 1: met Elvis Durant? Like, they'll go, do you know Elvis? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I stand like three ft away from him every morning
Speaker 1: for twenty three years. So I also I also, I'm
Speaker 1: not a fan of people who like acknowledge they know
Speaker 1: where I work, but then they don't care. They want
Speaker 1: they want me to help them meet the other people.
Speaker 1: That sucks that, Yeah, well it does. Yeah that happened.
Speaker 1: We talked about this as well, Happy where people try
Speaker 1: and use us in d M to get to other
Speaker 1: people on the show. So we're at the New York
Speaker 1: City Wine and Food Festival. We didn't even talk about that. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: uh yeah, we have a lot to talk about there.
Speaker 1: So after we went on stage, people then were reminded
Speaker 1: what we look like, what outfits were wearing, you know, um,
Speaker 1: and so people were coming up to us afterwards. In
Speaker 1: other words, the doors opened. I think it's for us
Speaker 1: at six o'clock and then for everyone else it's six
Speaker 1: thirty seven o'clock, whatever it was. And we didn't go
Speaker 1: on stage to introduce uh uh Ti Ti vert as. Yep, Okay,
Speaker 1: he's great. He's one of the nicest guys we've met
Speaker 1: a long time, not that we've had a lot of
Speaker 1: guests on in the past year and a half. But
Speaker 1: he couldn't have been nicer and just more genuinely happy
Speaker 1: to have a job in music. Just what a what
Speaker 1: a what a fun, nice, warm, six ft seven person.
Speaker 1: So once we came off stage and we Elvis introduced
Speaker 1: all of us, a lot of people were coming up
Speaker 1: to us, including Kristen and Gavin and a lot of people.
Speaker 1: And so when they come up to me, they go,
Speaker 1: I get a picture, and I always say, yeah, but
Speaker 1: introduce yourself first, like Hi, my name is blah blah blah, um,
Speaker 1: you know, because I always feel like it's about the
Speaker 1: They just want to get a picture. They think that
Speaker 1: they're bothering me, and I always say, no, you know
Speaker 1: you're not bothering me. Please, let's take a picture. What's
Speaker 1: your name? Where you're from. I like to talk to
Speaker 1: people because I appreciate that they want to get a
Speaker 1: picture with me or that they're a fan of the show.
Speaker 1: So most people were fantastic. But at one point, these
Speaker 1: two girls come up to me and they say, hey, um,
Speaker 1: where is everyone from the show? And I said, you
Speaker 1: know Elvis, Dan, yell, Gandhi, where where is everyone when
Speaker 1: you guys going on stage? I said, we were already
Speaker 1: on stage. You missed it. So she recognized me enough
Speaker 1: to ask me, right, so she didn't see me on stage,
Speaker 1: she read, So she says, oh, where are they now?
Speaker 1: I said, they're over by the stage, which is over
Speaker 1: there on the right, like I know, forty ft away.
Speaker 1: They went, thanks, and they walked away. Insignificant man. You yeah,
Speaker 1: like you don't want to take a picture, that's fine,
Speaker 1: but she's going I love the show. Or if you
Speaker 1: don't know my name, that's fine. But what a few
Speaker 1: people are like using me to ask directions. Hey, is
Speaker 1: Elvis coming around? Is he gonna be? Is he walking around?
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what he is. I don't know. Oh, well,
Speaker 1: well if you see him, could you tell him. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna mention the person's name. But they said, can you
Speaker 1: tell him that? Blah blah blahs looking for them? I said, no,
Speaker 1: you know what, you know what? No, I'm not gonna say. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I said, you know what, I'm not gonna tell I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go over there and get a meat ball palm hero.
Speaker 1: So I really can't promise you anything, but he's walking around,
Speaker 1: you can find him, so speaking to meat ball palm.
Speaker 1: So the way the way the food festival was, they
Speaker 1: were a little tents, like little kitchens with a tent
Speaker 1: like like at a flea market right where like this
Speaker 1: this booths right outdoor. And so there was I don't
Speaker 1: know thirty restaurants that brought like an oven at or
Speaker 1: pots and they were cooking their specialty and serving it
Speaker 1: little cups or little plates. So there was like a
Speaker 1: lasagna place that was fantastic, and uh, a tortellini plays
Speaker 1: and a few pizza places. Uh, I want to shout
Speaker 1: out our two and two of our favorite pizza places
Speaker 1: are to Choke Pizza and Village Square. What a pleasure
Speaker 1: to be able to eat both of them on the
Speaker 1: same night. And there was so so one of the
Speaker 1: places all around the end of the pier. They had
Speaker 1: the worst spot. I didn't get to it yet. Scary
Speaker 1: comes up to me and he says, Scary, what did
Speaker 1: you say to me? It's a brody. Please, whatever you do,
Speaker 1: don't miss Arthur and Sons. It's the last booth all
Speaker 1: the way out at the end of the pier. They
Speaker 1: got the best meat ball palms. Seriously, the best balls
Speaker 1: I've ever put in my mouth. Now, we were on
Speaker 1: PIERO eight six, which is next to the Intrepid Aircraft
Speaker 1: Carrier Museum and it's where the the hmer UH commercial
Speaker 1: Concord jet from British Airways, one of the many I
Speaker 1: think there were a dozen at some point. One of
Speaker 1: them is now a museum and it's just parked on
Speaker 1: the pier so you can walk under it. And this
Speaker 1: booth was right next to the concorde. Unbelievable to stand
Speaker 1: next to the concorde. The plane used to break the
Speaker 1: speed of Sound in the seventies, eighties, and nineties before
Speaker 1: they retired it. And I tried because I trust scary
Speaker 1: way to tied food even when he overdoes it. Bro,
Speaker 1: don't care. I drop what you do when you gotta
Speaker 1: go it. I went and had this meetbol Palm and
Speaker 1: had shaved age provolone on top. And keep in mind,
Speaker 1: you guys know I'm eating healthy, so I tried my
Speaker 1: best to did. I didn't do it to be rude.
Speaker 1: I didn't, you know, because a lot of times I'll
Speaker 1: you know, I want to mind my own manners because
Speaker 1: I know how it is when I'm first quarter scary
Speaker 1: trying to fast. So it wasn't being an intentional dick.
Speaker 1: It was worth the calories. And I didn't eat the
Speaker 1: whole thing, which was one of the hardest things I've
Speaker 1: ever done in my life. It was outrageous, outrageously right.
Speaker 1: And they're opening up not a not a sponsor, at
Speaker 1: least not a sponsor yet, but Joe the chef fantastic.
Speaker 1: I made friends with him, of course, because you want
Speaker 1: to be friends with the guy who cooks really well.
Speaker 1: And it turns out he's the guy that started Black
Speaker 1: Tap Burgers. They're the ones that make those crazy shakes
Speaker 1: right as it black tap right. He sold the company,
Speaker 1: but he's the genius behind that. And so I went
Speaker 1: up to Elvis later and I pulled a scary and
Speaker 1: I said, hey, Alice, did you have a chance to
Speaker 1: walk to the end of the pier? Did you have
Speaker 1: author and Son's people palm hero? And he says, what
Speaker 1: are they paying you? Who's paying you? More? Them? More? Scary?
Speaker 1: Scary has already been nagging me for a half hour.
Speaker 1: I said, Elvis, he's right though, it's that good because
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't need you telling me what
Speaker 1: he's like. I gotta I'm good, I'll find everything he's
Speaker 1: he's But by the way, you gotta try. Was it
Speaker 1: um No, that's a that's a was a as an
Speaker 1: Italian restaurant, right, he says, he but you're gonna try.
Speaker 1: But favorite is my favorite restaurants right now. But so
Speaker 1: so he did to you what I did. So they
Speaker 1: had a Tortalini. It was a it was a Totalini
Speaker 1: called it. They called it an It was a Totalini
Speaker 1: for those people who don't care that muther and it
Speaker 1: was what was inside, but look it up. It was
Speaker 1: up sweet. I want to I think I took a
Speaker 1: picture of the sign um and so I said told
Speaker 1: us like, wait, I said, scary, and I can't promote.
Speaker 1: We can't promote the Arthur and Sons Sons, but you
Speaker 1: can promote your Italian restaurant us. He's like, you got me.
Speaker 1: It was fantastic. The whole event was was great. Um
Speaker 1: had no complaints, no except the people that were using me.
Speaker 1: Just yeah. And by the way, I almost offended someone.
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't exactly hear what she said, and
Speaker 1: so I asked if I could please make an inappropriate joke. Oh,
Speaker 1: here it is fire roasted chestnuts stuffed with Parmesiano is saba.

Speaker 1: much good food. Yeah, all right, what what did you say?
Speaker 1: What are you gonna say? I was, I don't know
Speaker 1: what are you gonna say? I know, Oh I offended someone?
Speaker 1: So Kristen so it was really loud, right, and so
Speaker 1: we were talking about she said something about, oh, I
Speaker 1: I ordered food. I'm a I'm a. She's not the
Speaker 1: order she's the purchaser for a supermarket chain in Connecticut.
Speaker 1: And I've heard of the supermarket chain once I heard
Speaker 1: what she said. But I said, oh, that's great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she said, uh, I work at big Y. But I
Speaker 1: thought she said I have a big y, which made
Speaker 1: me think of like her nether regions. So I, first,
Speaker 1: who calls it a y? Wouldn't it be V? It's
Speaker 1: a V? Right? But I you know, I I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know what she's What do you mean she
Speaker 1: has a big y? I go, I go, that sounds inappropriate.
Speaker 1: What do you I forgive me for asking what do
Speaker 1: you mean? You have a big y? So she left
Speaker 1: you just no, no, no, I work at big Y.
Speaker 1: What you could say that on the podcast? I'm not offended.
Speaker 1: So shout out to Christian who works in big Y,
Speaker 1: Big Y, Kristen Christen. That's what she said. She tweeted
Speaker 1: me big white christin Christian checking in. UM, I wanted
Speaker 1: to ask you, Uh, first of all, I have a
Speaker 1: couple of things. But first of all, I wanted to
Speaker 1: a story of hope, a story of hope, okay for
Speaker 1: produce and I want to see all this hope. Producer.
Speaker 1: Sam and I were leaving the radio station and we
Speaker 1: were parked on the street on Friday, and my meter
Speaker 1: had expired probably five minutes prior. As I'm walking towards
Speaker 1: the car, a good Samaritan was literally standing there and said, oh,
Speaker 1: it is your car. I said yeah. He goes, oh,
Speaker 1: you're good till eleven thirty. Now, in New York City,
Speaker 1: when you park your car and you want to extend
Speaker 1: your parking your your your parking meter, you have to
Speaker 1: pay the meter with a credit card and then you
Speaker 1: you print out the slip and then you put it
Speaker 1: on your windshield to show that you are you know,
Speaker 1: you're league, you're legally parked. You don't feed meat physical
Speaker 1: meters anymore with quarters. So he had all these paper
Speaker 1: slips and he's going up and down the line, the
Speaker 1: line of cars and putting the updated these paper slips
Speaker 1: under the windshields of all the cars he had. He goes, yeah,
Speaker 1: you were about to get a ticket, dude, And I
Speaker 1: just paid your meter. I said, I said, do I
Speaker 1: know you? And he goes, No, man, my name is Francisco,
Speaker 1: he goes, But I just don't like it when these
Speaker 1: these meter people are sitting there at you know, waiting
Speaker 1: to pounce when the meters are up, and they just
Speaker 1: waited to give that ticket with one minute after, you know,
Speaker 1: one minute after expires. I do. I wanted you to.
Speaker 1: I want to make sure that you you got your
Speaker 1: your parking paid for. So he renewed my meter and
Speaker 1: about three other people that were parked in that row,
Speaker 1: and he saved them all from getting parking tickets. How
Speaker 1: crazy is that? That's that's excellent. I mean it cost
Speaker 1: him like a dollar a car. But would you have
Speaker 1: the wherewithal? Would you have the uh? Would you jump?
Speaker 1: Would you have done it? Would you have done it?
Speaker 1: If you saw you sitting you're just sitting there and
Speaker 1: you you saw this meter person, you know, the ticket
Speaker 1: person coming down the street, like I'm gonna go, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go see which cars are expired, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go buy quickly go to the master meter and start
Speaker 1: you know, paying with my credit card and start spinning
Speaker 1: out like extra time for and start putting the slips
Speaker 1: on people's windshield. So there within the time limit. Would
Speaker 1: you would you do that? Yeah? I think I think
Speaker 1: I I think I would. I would feel terrible. I
Speaker 1: like if it was old school and I had a
Speaker 1: quarter in my pocket, I would put the quarter in Yeah,
Speaker 1: so right, okay, Yeah, and I would too. I just
Speaker 1: you know, just when you lose all hope in humanity,
Speaker 1: just know there are people like Francisco out there. Well,
Speaker 1: there's a woman. I was at Target a couple of
Speaker 1: days ago, and I'm in the parking lot and the
Speaker 1: car directly in front of me where nose two knows
Speaker 1: a woman with a couple of kids. So she's sort
Speaker 1: of like balancing one kid in the cart, one kid
Speaker 1: in the crook of her arm. She's loading the back
Speaker 1: of her SUV, and she's got a lot going on.
Speaker 1: I hear a woman yelling mass, Mess, Mess, And a
Speaker 1: woman runs by my car up to this woman, and
Speaker 1: I cracked the window open so I could hear the conversation,
Speaker 1: and she says, I think you dropped this. The woman says, what,
Speaker 1: I was behind you in line in the store and
Speaker 1: I noticed as you were leaving you dropped this. So
Speaker 1: it wasn't a Target employee, it was just another customer
Speaker 1: that saw the thing and rushed through the parking line.
Speaker 1: By the way, it was raining in the rain, rushed
Speaker 1: out to give her bag of whatever it was. See,
Speaker 1: we need more people like that, we do, we do.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you who We don't need more people of
Speaker 1: the kinds of evil son of a bitches that would
Speaker 1: steal stuff off of your work desk. This you did,
Speaker 1: hear it? You blew me off. I'll remind you. Oh no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no, I'm gonna tell the story right all right.
Speaker 1: So we've been in these offices now since two thousand eight.
Speaker 1: After so we had um, we had really nice offices
Speaker 1: prior to two thousand eight. Jersey City, New Jersey, we
Speaker 1: were there from We had a giant office with huge
Speaker 1: space and tables for hanging out, an extra desks. I
Speaker 1: didn't appreciate that place at the time, but I appreciate
Speaker 1: it more now looking back. Two Fox and we had
Speaker 1: a lot of We had cabinets above our cubicles. And yeah,
Speaker 1: so when we moved into the new place, Greg t
Speaker 1: the Jersey Kid, he and I had face to face
Speaker 1: cubicle by the window, right, so if I stood up,
Speaker 1: I saw the top of his head okay, So at
Speaker 1: the side of our cubicles was a little wall, like
Speaker 1: partly my wall, partly his wall, because the cubicles were
Speaker 1: were face to face, right head to head, cheek to
Speaker 1: cheek exactly, And so when we moved in, there was
Speaker 1: no place to hang our coats. And yes, you can
Speaker 1: put your coat on your chair, but when you lean back,
Speaker 1: the coat falls off. It's never convenient. Plus you might
Speaker 1: want to hang up an umbrella or a book bag
Speaker 1: or whatever, you know, a backpack, whatever. So t went
Speaker 1: to home depot and brought these really nice. He had
Speaker 1: to buy a few of them until we found ones
Speaker 1: that fit into a little space between the shelf on
Speaker 1: the cubicle and the edge of the cubicle is a
Speaker 1: little like a half in space where this over the
Speaker 1: hook thing, which had like a magnet weight on it,
Speaker 1: fit in perfectly so that the coat wouldn't be able
Speaker 1: to pull it off, right, because some of the over
Speaker 1: the door ones are thin, so they fit right. This
Speaker 1: was like the perfect like it was made for our cubicles.
Speaker 1: And we've had those on our desk since two thousand,
Speaker 1: late maybe maybe early two nine, right, it's been a
Speaker 1: long time, a long time, well, number one. I haven't
Speaker 1: been in the office in a while. Did you said
Speaker 1: it's been a long time since we rock and roll?
Speaker 1: Of course, yeah, And so I haven't used it in
Speaker 1: a while because I have only barely been in the
Speaker 1: office in the past a year and a half, maybe
Speaker 1: five times twice, and then I've been in the office
Speaker 1: much more lately. So on Friday, since it's now getting
Speaker 1: colder in New York, was the first time since March
Speaker 1: March Anniversary show May so since I've been coming in
Speaker 1: sporadically since May. Um, it's the first time I've needed
Speaker 1: a coat, So I hung up my coat on the
Speaker 1: hook on Friday. On Tuesday, Elvis was in the studio,
Speaker 1: so I came in. My hook is gone, Gregg teath
Speaker 1: hook is gone. We're both gone. So there's only like
Speaker 1: twelve people outside the morning show. There's only I think
Speaker 1: seven people that work at the radio station. And so
Speaker 1: I emailed everybody and I went and I walked. Everybody
Speaker 1: walked at all the studios looking for him. Maybe someone
Speaker 1: put it over the door, Maybe someone used it as
Speaker 1: like for a they filmed a video, what did they
Speaker 1: and they put it down somewhere. Nothing can't find it.
Speaker 1: So I send that an email to everyone on the
Speaker 1: staff and I'm like, hey, if you see my hooks,
Speaker 1: can you please return them. I'm not accusatory, but I
Speaker 1: like my hooks back. They just they've been there for
Speaker 1: how many years? Now? Twelve years? They disappeared frieda did
Speaker 1: you well, well, let me ask you this. Did you
Speaker 1: find them? No? Um, it is dawning upon me right
Speaker 1: now where they might be. You tell me where they are.
Speaker 1: The first thing you said to me was, Brody, what's
Speaker 1: the big deal, go buy new ones? Well, yeah, because
Speaker 1: they're fucking hooks. Who cares at the time. At the time,
Speaker 1: it seemed to try. Here we are trying to put
Speaker 1: together a one city, multi market morning show for a network,
Speaker 1: and you're running around with a chicken, like a chicken
Speaker 1: with out a head, looking for a freaking hook for
Speaker 1: your coat. I was gonna say, do what we all
Speaker 1: do in the morning. We show up and we just
Speaker 1: throw our coats all over the back of chairs wherever
Speaker 1: there's an empty space. What's so important that you have
Speaker 1: to hang your coat on a damn hook When we
Speaker 1: have bigger fish to fry at that hour of the morning.
Speaker 1: That's where that's where I was coming from. So you said,
Speaker 1: just go buy another one. So I said, if it's
Speaker 1: not the bigger deal, give me the money to buy
Speaker 1: its problem. Well, I'm not gonna make your problem problem.
Speaker 1: What about the guy, the good nature guy who put
Speaker 1: money in the met to for you? Well, well that's
Speaker 1: different about but we need more people like that. We do.
Speaker 1: But on that. But when you're screaming at the top
Speaker 1: of your long for book, I didn't screaming you. I
Speaker 1: just said I can't believe I'm back in the office
Speaker 1: and since Friday one of my coworkers stole my code on.
Speaker 1: It's gonna look really petty if you send an email
Speaker 1: out to the office. I didn't accuse anyone. I said, hey, uh,
Speaker 1: if they're laying around, maybe someone used them for something.
Speaker 1: If you could do me a favor, put him back
Speaker 1: when you get a chance. I said. It's been a
Speaker 1: sound petty, like here's Brody again complaining. Tell you what
Speaker 1: one of the DJs threw three other people under the bus. Really, Oh,
Speaker 1: you left off these two people and this person worked
Speaker 1: on the weekend. You should check them out too. Well.
Speaker 1: As I'm sitting here right now, I just thought of something.
Speaker 1: I bet you no, no, what I think might have happened.
Speaker 1: I think Greg T reclaimed his property because he might
Speaker 1: have him in his office guaranteed. Did you ask Greg T? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I did. I did think I may have. Okay, I'll
Speaker 1: tell you why, because I know because he's been he
Speaker 1: comes down the hall all the time, and he was
Speaker 1: in this studio last week, so he might have went
Speaker 1: to his old desk and like, oh my god, I
Speaker 1: forgot these. And then so first of all, f you
Speaker 1: for getting my hop stop that you thought you knew
Speaker 1: where they were? That was I thought you were gonna say,
Speaker 1: you know, now that I think about it, Okay, it's
Speaker 1: not an educated guest. Second of all, Greg T has
Speaker 1: a full size office with the door now now that
Speaker 1: he has his own hosting, his own morning back of
Speaker 1: the door, he's got a code a code hanger like
Speaker 1: a coat stand. Right, he didn't need the cheap hooks.
Speaker 1: He doesn't have a cubicle anymore. And he wouldn't have
Speaker 1: taken both of them. He would have taken his. And
Speaker 1: he did not take them. I asked him, I said, T,
Speaker 1: where'd you get those? I need to buy another one.
Speaker 1: He didn't say, oh yeah, I took him. Okay, nope,
Speaker 1: he said, I don't. I don't have him. So I said,
Speaker 1: if you took him to it's fine. I know you
Speaker 1: were there for the hooks. So he claims he didn't
Speaker 1: take him. Now did he take him home with him?
Speaker 1: And he's lying to me. He would have just said
Speaker 1: Brodie took him home. I bought him. I took him.
Speaker 1: I wasn't upset about it. I just I just I'm
Speaker 1: just tired people stealing ship. I know. I know to
Speaker 1: me they just hooks how much? But now you're putting
Speaker 1: it in context and making me feel like a shad
Speaker 1: because they were probably was about to say, and there
Speaker 1: were the ones that fit that space so deepot makes
Speaker 1: them anymore more importantly than the price they were. They
Speaker 1: were the ones that fit, and you couldn't find them anymore.
Speaker 1: I've already looked at the three over the doorhooks I
Speaker 1: have at home. None of them are gonna fit. So
Speaker 1: my life is over. Your life is over. And I'm
Speaker 1: just wondering if you tip the ice guy at the club,
Speaker 1: the ice guy, what are you talking about? My return
Speaker 1: to the club was on Saturday. On Saturday night, I
Speaker 1: went to my first Duck club I went to I
Speaker 1: was not wearing my dit the easiest Friday to the
Speaker 1: listen when in Rome, right, I was down in a C.
Speaker 1: I told you we were seeing the taller Henry show.
Speaker 1: We stayed over at the Ocean beautiful, more addressing younger
Speaker 1: than they should be. I'm seeing a name and and
Speaker 1: Anthony Andrew something like that. Hardy har har harror. So
Speaker 1: after so after dinner, they were like, we want you
Speaker 1: to check out h Q two, which is the nightclub
Speaker 1: which is reopened. It's probably the only large scale nightclub
Speaker 1: opened in uh a C right now. So they're like,
Speaker 1: we're gonna set you up with a table and some
Speaker 1: bottles where we're gonna do it right, bottle of champagne,
Speaker 1: bottle of vodka, bring your bring your crew. They So
Speaker 1: I show up at the club and again, I haven't
Speaker 1: been to a club in a like a club like
Speaker 1: that in a long time, because since before the pandemic.
Speaker 1: If I'm thinking, yeah, because because we don't, we haven't
Speaker 1: done that, we haven't done those those nightclubs, you know,
Speaker 1: DJ turning it up, laser light focused everywhere, crazy go
Speaker 1: bows in the sky. You know. So anyway, so we
Speaker 1: get there and then you know, you know, we have
Speaker 1: the late the woman who pours the drink. They refused
Speaker 1: as soon as they see you from across the room,
Speaker 1: you know, trying to pour your own drink. Pick up
Speaker 1: the vodka out of the ice. She comes storming over. Now,
Speaker 1: let me let me get that for you, because they
Speaker 1: want the big tip. Well, every ten minutes the guy
Speaker 1: was there was a guy trailing her, and he was
Speaker 1: like kind of made it known up front, like you know,
Speaker 1: when you're pining for a tip and you want to
Speaker 1: show that you're part of the team, and like, oh,
Speaker 1: don't just tip the hot waitress over there who's pouring
Speaker 1: your drinks. I'm here too, I'm part of the team.
Speaker 1: So when they came over to introduced themselves, it was
Speaker 1: it was her and him. And then every ten minutes
Speaker 1: he started replacing the ice, even when it didn't need
Speaker 1: to be replaced. So all of a sudden, he would
Speaker 1: like to be like, oh hold on, let me get
Speaker 1: let me get the ice, because it's all he could do.
Speaker 1: He doesn't pour drinks, he doesn't handle the bottles, he
Speaker 1: doesn't do the check any of that stuff. So he
Speaker 1: takes away dirty glasses and it takes two ice, and
Speaker 1: he goes and he replaces it with new ice. Now, Brodie,
Speaker 1: how we're in a we're in an air conditioned club.
Speaker 1: How often do you think the ice needs to be changed? Oh?
Speaker 1: Every two hours? Right, the guy with every ten fifteen minutes,
Speaker 1: he'd come by, he'd be like, oh, let me replace
Speaker 1: your ice, And he goes to get another bucket of ice,
Speaker 1: and then he puts the old bucket, takes the old
Speaker 1: bucket away, and it takes everything that was sitting in
Speaker 1: ice from the old bucket and and puts it in
Speaker 1: the new bucket with the ice. And I'm like, the
Speaker 1: guy's giving us fresh ice every fifteen minutes. So at
Speaker 1: the end of the night, it was time for me
Speaker 1: to tip the waitress, obviously, But how much do you
Speaker 1: tip the ice guy? Uh? How much does he tips?
Speaker 1: The ice guy? Two dollars? Two dollars? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I give the guy who drives my car two dollars
Speaker 1: of the fair he's part of the team. Well, maybe
Speaker 1: they pull the tips. I don't know. I gave her.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, the waitress, I gave him. How much
Speaker 1: was the tab scary? And then up being oh no,
Speaker 1: well no, I keep in mind the bottles were comped,
Speaker 1: So what what what would have been if it was
Speaker 1: it was gonna be like forty dollars for the ice guy.
Speaker 1: I gave the ice guy forty bucks. You gave him
Speaker 1: forty bucks for changing the ice. What's it like to
Speaker 1: live in your world? No, but I had to keep
Speaker 1: in mind I did not pay for anything else. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and we there was like there were six of us there,
Speaker 1: so we were gonna encouraging the ice guy to be
Speaker 1: a professional ice guy. Well that's that's my point. It
Speaker 1: was like the ice guy and I know a lot
Speaker 1: of people listening to a lot of people. Mom, I
Speaker 1: dropped out of college. Look at me, Now I got
Speaker 1: forty bucks for changing ice. Ha If here's a lot
Speaker 1: of people that are listening like, oh, I just go
Speaker 1: to a bar and I got beer and shots and
Speaker 1: what then are you talking about? Scary? And I understand
Speaker 1: that if this is a very bougie tipped a sparkler
Speaker 1: girl putting the sparklers in the ball. Oh my god.
Speaker 1: They came by with one of those A little something
Speaker 1: for your sparkle lady. They came by with a sign
Speaker 1: that was lit up like letterbox and it said h
Speaker 1: Q two welcomes Scary, and they had a bottle parade
Speaker 1: and they were going up and down with the sign
Speaker 1: and they had each other on each other's shoulders, and
Speaker 1: about six six bottle girls came out with sparklers and everything.
Speaker 1: I didn't tip them anything because that was the presentation moment.
Speaker 1: Now a lot of people again cannot relate. But my
Speaker 1: point is, at some point in your life can't relate. No,
Speaker 1: But at some point in your life, you may be
Speaker 1: going to someone's bachelorette bachelor party, or you're gonna do
Speaker 1: like some crazy night out. It's maybe a once in
Speaker 1: a lifetime to bachelorette party. I went to a girl's
Speaker 1: shot ping pong balls out of her huha, that's not
Speaker 1: quite the same thing. It was in the Knights of Columbus,
Speaker 1: like a rinky dink back room with and the bachelor
Speaker 1: had a whiffootball bat and he was hitting the ping
Speaker 1: pong ball. If you do a Vegas you could do
Speaker 1: a Vegas thing a Vegas or Miami and you go
Speaker 1: to the club the things that's Knights at Columbus club night. Duh.
Speaker 1: That's duh, by the way, Columbus. So my my larger
Speaker 1: point here is do you tip the ice guy? And
Speaker 1: because I felt bad, so I felt like I had
Speaker 1: money had to come out of my pocket. He was changing,
Speaker 1: he was replacing the ice every ten minutes. I can't no,
Speaker 1: I just I'm dumbfounded. I should be an ice guy,
Speaker 1: probably make more money. So I did the wrong thing.
Speaker 1: I gave him four. I gave him for his because
Speaker 1: I had to calculate. I'm like, how many times did
Speaker 1: he come back? All right? And we've been here for
Speaker 1: three hours? The guy was like waiting on his hand
Speaker 1: and foot. I mean, you can't put a price on
Speaker 1: good service. I mean, so you know, I figured it
Speaker 1: has to be worth more than that. No, I guess
Speaker 1: it has to be. It has to be that. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I know it's a lot of money. It
Speaker 1: is a lot of money. It's forty dollars. But but
Speaker 1: when considering I was camped and I didn't pay anything
Speaker 1: going in, I'm not gonna walk into like a freeloader,
Speaker 1: drink all their drinks and leave. Yeah, I guess. I guess. Okay,
Speaker 1: had you paid for the bottles? Uh? Now? Or have
Speaker 1: you given the ice guy? Probably? Nothing? Oh? Okay, So
Speaker 1: now he should work for freeze. What you're saying, Well,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I felt like I don't know. I
Speaker 1: felt like I I felt guilty that no money came
Speaker 1: out of my pocket, so I felt like I had
Speaker 1: to tip the ice guy. I feel like, if the
Speaker 1: ice guy dies, if you don't tip him and he
Speaker 1: dies tragically, the next time you go to see Tyler Perry,
Speaker 1: the clairvoyant, whatever that guy was, he's gonna say, does
Speaker 1: anyone know Ice? I'm hearing Ice? There any about Ice?
Speaker 1: That guy would come back from the dead to tell
Speaker 1: you that he didn't You didn't tip him. I'm sensing
Speaker 1: a cheapness at the club. Did you not tip the
Speaker 1: ice guy? He says he's he's still holding a grudge.
Speaker 1: I bring it up because it is absurd and wesertain
Speaker 1: things on this podcast. Before we wrap this up, to
Speaker 1: have time to tell you about a tip situation with
Speaker 1: me that happened at a restaurant. We have all the
Speaker 1: time in the world right after this, so I was
Speaker 1: at a very nice theme restaurant with my buddy Jeff.
Speaker 1: By the way, I've mentioned him on this podcast a
Speaker 1: bunch of times. I've also referred to him as my
Speaker 1: friend without saying his name friend. He was at the
Speaker 1: Wine of Food festival and when I guess so when
Speaker 1: people come up to me to say, you know I
Speaker 1: brought you can't get a picture? I said, sure, my
Speaker 1: friend Jeff here will gladly take the picture if you want.
Speaker 1: And every almost everyone said, oh my god, yours friend
Speaker 1: from the podcast with the jeep and the cars and
Speaker 1: the all thing. People remembered him. So he he's like
Speaker 1: he became famous because all of a sudden, he's the
Speaker 1: guy I keep talking about. Not not all my stories
Speaker 1: about him, but some of them are. So he was like, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm famous for the So we went to dinner on
Speaker 1: Monday night on a Monday and our waiter's name was Tom,
Speaker 1: and Tom I could tell was not a good waiter.
Speaker 1: I could just tell he wasn't a good waiter. He
Speaker 1: was just like nervously like, I'll be with you guys
Speaker 1: in a second. And I was like, okay, Tom's not
Speaker 1: a good waiter. So he came over and he says,
Speaker 1: you have you guys been here before? I said, yep,
Speaker 1: we're here all the time, all right, Because I was
Speaker 1: gonna tell you what the bathroom is. God, it's very nice,
Speaker 1: but no we've been here before that no one's ever
Speaker 1: told where the bathroom was. I thought that was that
Speaker 1: was helpful. I guess right. And he says, I'll come back,
Speaker 1: come get your order, let me know when you're ready. Said, well,
Speaker 1: we're ready. We're here all the time. We know what
Speaker 1: we want. So, uh, my friend orders a drink, you know,
Speaker 1: iced tea or whatever, and so I said, just give
Speaker 1: me a glass of water. Be fine. And I said,
Speaker 1: we'll place the appetizer order now and we'll come back
Speaker 1: with a We'll give you the whole thing now, so
Speaker 1: we'll give an appetized order. We went to case the
Speaker 1: Diaz and we order our dinner and uh my friend
Speaker 1: orders what he used the orders, and I order what
Speaker 1: I would used the order, but I had something different
Speaker 1: less time, because I told you I'm beating healthy. And
Speaker 1: so they make this, uh maple glazed salmon with um
Speaker 1: an apple, an apple fennel chopped up thing so it
Speaker 1: tastes like liquorice. It's fantastic, and parsnips or something. So
Speaker 1: I don't want the parsnips. So the last time I
Speaker 1: was there, I had them substitute these. Uh they're this.
Speaker 1: How do I explain this. If you make the O
Speaker 1: sign with your fingers like an okay sign, that they
Speaker 1: would be inside that hole. That's how big the potatoes were,
Speaker 1: like the size of a quarter potato. Yeah, there were,
Speaker 1: there were, There were Yukon gold potatoes. Those are the
Speaker 1: small ones and the small ones, right, And so the
Speaker 1: last time I got them, I had a glaze on them,
Speaker 1: and they were like double stuffed with some cheese inside.
Speaker 1: Unbelievably good. They were so good the last time I
Speaker 1: was there, I took an order home with me, that's
Speaker 1: how good they were. So I tell Tom, instead of
Speaker 1: the parsnips, I'd really like the Yukon gold potatoes that
Speaker 1: come with the steak. Should be no problem. So he says, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm not familiar with those. I said, we'll just tell
Speaker 1: the guys in the back the potatoes that you cause
Speaker 1: the little ones. They come, excuse me, come with the steak.
Speaker 1: See right, So they were already on the menu with
Speaker 1: another dish, right, I said, It's not like you're asking
Speaker 1: him to go back into the kitchen rummage through the
Speaker 1: ship that for something that may not exist. So he says,
Speaker 1: all right, and he sounds confused, like his brain is
Speaker 1: gonna explode. And I've tried to be easy with him.
Speaker 1: It was just like one, one substitution, just just that.
Speaker 1: So he comes back and he says, I think they
Speaker 1: know what it is. I think they know what it is.
Speaker 1: Think And he brings my friend his drink and he says,
Speaker 1: are you sure you don't need a drink to me?
Speaker 1: And I said, no, I ordered the water. Oh I
Speaker 1: don't think you did, but not a drink or he
Speaker 1: just didn't hear you the first time. Well don't don't, don't,
Speaker 1: don't ever blame me. So I said no, I absolutely
Speaker 1: ordered the water because I knew what you know. I
Speaker 1: knew I ordered the water because I didn't order to
Speaker 1: diet coke no ice, because I'm trying to cut down
Speaker 1: on anything that would that would trigger me to want food,
Speaker 1: so I would out of my way to Oddly in
Speaker 1: my mind, me saying it a water sounded weird. Well
Speaker 1: it sounded like the cash register doesn't wring in his brain,
Speaker 1: because that's true, that's what that was. Probably the water
Speaker 1: is very nice about it. Whatever. And so the food
Speaker 1: comes out and I've got a giant baked potato on
Speaker 1: my plate, cut in half. So I said, I'm sorry
Speaker 1: about the time, but I really want the small Yukon
Speaker 1: the little Yukon potatoes, little ones, And I said, and
Speaker 1: these have bacon in them. I don't. I don't want bacon.
Speaker 1: I want the double fluffed re stuffed that I had
Speaker 1: him last time. I wish I was. I would have
Speaker 1: eaten that. It was fine, but I don't know what
Speaker 1: hell calls you? Good friend you have and so he goes,
Speaker 1: let me check, and so a manager comes out. Very
Speaker 1: I didn't ask for the manager. A manager comes out
Speaker 1: and he says, oh, you want the Yukon potatoes. He goes,
Speaker 1: those are the Yukon potatoes. I said what. He goes, well,
Speaker 1: those are the potatoes we have currently in stock that
Speaker 1: they're ferent sizes than what you're used to. So I said,
Speaker 1: you don't have the little potatoes with the cheese, and
Speaker 1: they go, these have cheese in them? You have they
Speaker 1: have bacon them the ones in that bacon. Oh they
Speaker 1: should have. So I was here on got to put
Speaker 1: the bacon in day and he doesn't laugh. I go,
Speaker 1: because I had to. I had two orders of them.
Speaker 1: They didn't bacon. He's all a supposed that bacon, I said,
Speaker 1: so all right, that's fine. So I had these giant
Speaker 1: potatoes now on my plate, which is not what I want.
Speaker 1: And I wanted the little ones with the glaze on.
Speaker 1: These were bone dry awful. Okay, anyway, we get that.
Speaker 1: That was fine. It wasn't a big deal. So the
Speaker 1: check comes and I ordered salmon and my friend ordered
Speaker 1: a flatbread pizza. Now mine was what was like ten
Speaker 1: dollars more than his, and I just as easily as
Speaker 1: I don't want to overpay for somebody else, I said,
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna pay more for for the
Speaker 1: food because I ordered the expensive salmon. That's well, that's
Speaker 1: how I roll. I'm not cheap. I'm smart with money,
Speaker 1: and I do the right thing. So I I said,
Speaker 1: you know what, I'll have them split it. I did
Speaker 1: the math and I said to the to Tom when
Speaker 1: he came back and said, Tom, I have the blue
Speaker 1: credit card, he has the green one. On the blue one,
Speaker 1: put thirty four dollars and then the rest on his
Speaker 1: You really think that, uh, Tom, Tom? Tom Tom dumb
Speaker 1: order as a professional waiter. You think he's gonna get
Speaker 1: pole to split the check. He can't even get your
Speaker 1: order right, and if your introspect. I should have split
Speaker 1: the check and had and I would have friends. That's
Speaker 1: what you should do. But I said, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just split the check and I'll pay the
Speaker 1: more money because I you know, you said you put
Speaker 1: this amount here in that amount, just charged thirty four dollars. Right,
Speaker 1: So he comes back. He by the way, he doesn't
Speaker 1: offer us dessert for some reason. But the other every
Speaker 1: other table we hear him saying, would you like the dessert?
Speaker 1: We have this lovely blah blah blah and this amazing
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. He probably wanted to get you the
Speaker 1: funk out of here. I'm not did not offer us dessert.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking he sign right there. So he brings the
Speaker 1: check and it's split evenly. Who was Tom dumb? Tom dumb?
Speaker 1: So so the manager walks by, goes, how are you guys?
Speaker 1: Everything good? I said, well, you couldn't help yourself. I
Speaker 1: wanted my coat hooks at the restaurant. So I said
Speaker 1: that the guy, hey, you know, um oh man, we
Speaker 1: asked for the check to be split a certain way,
Speaker 1: and it was even It's not a big deal, But
Speaker 1: what is it a big deal to resplit. He is, no,
Speaker 1: I'm ridiculous. So he said, I'll take care of for you.
Speaker 1: So it ten minutes later he comes over and he goes,
Speaker 1: I'm really sorry. The printer had to have the paper
Speaker 1: replaced her at a paper to go to the back
Speaker 1: and get more paper. Uh, and uh, it just took
Speaker 1: a while. I'm sorry about that. But here you go,
Speaker 1: and it was done. But it was just it took
Speaker 1: like an extra fifteen minutes to get the check from
Speaker 1: what I ordered the check to be split a certain way.
Speaker 1: So lesson learned to me, when the guy is not
Speaker 1: really all there, don't ask him to do a little
Speaker 1: extra because you're not gonna get it. You ain't gonna
Speaker 1: get it. I'm not gonna get it. So I got Uh,
Speaker 1: I got a good meal and had oversized potatoes. And
Speaker 1: now what was just scary. Let me ask you a question.
Speaker 1: Number one, what would you have tipped the guy? And
Speaker 1: number two would you ever trust to order that order again?
Speaker 1: Number one, I would still give him because I think
Speaker 1: that that is automatic. I think that, but isn't it
Speaker 1: isn't it supposed to be? Like, thank you for great service.
Speaker 1: And by the way, please don't tweet us that T
Speaker 1: I p S stands for and golf is not gentleman
Speaker 1: only ladies forbidden. You know, we've got So you give him.
Speaker 1: What would he have to do to get less than
Speaker 1: be a rude, obnoxious asshole. So if he's like what
Speaker 1: if he's tripped in if it was all accidental and
Speaker 1: it was all being aloof and unaware and he's just
Speaker 1: forgotten he was dumb and forgetful and just being stupid,
Speaker 1: I still give him. They still did the work, they
Speaker 1: put the effort in for what they thought was a
Speaker 1: good job. It's when they start treating you like a
Speaker 1: piece of ship, or they start getting nasty or any
Speaker 1: of the any any of that stuff. That's all if
Speaker 1: you dessert, no, no, no, that's when the one he
Speaker 1: starts coming off from me. But but right, and that's
Speaker 1: that's what I say. That's that's when the letter writing
Speaker 1: campaign begins. Because now I got I want to get
Speaker 1: I want Now I have a couple of email I
Speaker 1: want to read them. Yeah, I have some stuff too,
Speaker 1: So okay, so one last question, what would the ice
Speaker 1: guy had to have done to have gotten a less
Speaker 1: of a tip? The ice guy have gotten wrong? What
Speaker 1: I have given you did you give him less than
Speaker 1: than give me dirty okay, give me dirty looks. What
Speaker 1: if you hand jammed your ice accidentally, I'm okay with
Speaker 1: it if you didn't know what he was doing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but if he like really fucked me over, now would
Speaker 1: have to be intentional. I listen, I'm not gonna fault
Speaker 1: anybody for getting shipped wrong or whatever, because you get
Speaker 1: what you pay for when it comes to where you're,
Speaker 1: where you're at, and who who's who's helping? You know
Speaker 1: who's working. To the shift, you know, the Sunday morning shift,
Speaker 1: you know those the two you go into any said,
Speaker 1: uh fast food chain or or even casual fast casual
Speaker 1: chain on a on a Tuesday Wednesday afternoon. A lot
Speaker 1: of times that's where the newbies are, the training people,
Speaker 1: the rookies. They give them more experienced shifts, in my opinion,
Speaker 1: to the week the weekend nights like those are your
Speaker 1: prime timers, right, the ones that can work fast and
Speaker 1: do the better job. So I don't but I don't
Speaker 1: take money away from them. I just feel like they're
Speaker 1: just in training, and I attribute it to that. I

Speaker 1: years ago, I looked at my kids and said to myself,
Speaker 1: I gotta be better, simply because I want to be
Speaker 1: here as long as possible for my family and myself.
Speaker 1: I started running, working out, eating better, and the forty
Speaker 1: five year old me would easily kick the ass of
Speaker 1: the twenty five year old me. The important thing is
Speaker 1: I don't believe in diets. You have to make all
Speaker 1: the positive changes a part of your daily lifestyle. So scary.
Speaker 1: Let's stop the quarterly versions of you. You can do better. Also,
Speaker 1: you can eat whatever you want, keep eating pizza, chicken,
Speaker 1: parm and meatballs. You just gotta balance it out with
Speaker 1: meal size over healthy eating habits and physical activity. Okay,

Speaker 1: to touch on real quick. It's uh, it's it's not
Speaker 1: baseball ish. But somebody, I don't think I read this.
Speaker 1: If I read this before, I apologize. I was on
Speaker 1: a Mets Instagram page, like a like a fan page,
Speaker 1: like somebody who like really follows the he writes a
Speaker 1: blog for the Mets, and uh, this person wrote, where
Speaker 1: the Mets whenever we're not in a close game, we're
Speaker 1: getting rocked. There aren't those the only two options? It's
Speaker 1: either or right, it's either a close game or it's
Speaker 1: not a close game. Those are the other than being
Speaker 1: a tide game. I guess, so I O, I go,
Speaker 1: there only two options? What are you like? We're typical
Speaker 1: Mets were either we're either losing by a little, losing
Speaker 1: by a lot. You know? Oh yeah, shut, that's sorry.
Speaker 1: Just don't be stupid. Rachel Kohler the dog, Rachel Color,
Speaker 1: Dog Training. That's where this email comes from. Rachel Color,
Speaker 1: the dog trainer, Brooklyn Boys. I will not say names.
Speaker 1: I started listening to the fifteen Minute Morning Show years ago,
Speaker 1: going through phases of binge listening to it. While listening
Speaker 1: to that, I had a hard time telling y'all's voice support.
Speaker 1: Once I was caught up on that podcast, I needed
Speaker 1: more podcast content from Elvis around morning show. Since listening,
Speaker 1: I have no idea how I used to mix you
Speaker 1: all up, so she used, So she started listening, and
Speaker 1: then she started she was on to say. I decided
Speaker 1: to finally listen to the Brooklyn Boys podcast. I started
Speaker 1: from the beginning currently up to episode fourteen from October
Speaker 1: two thousand seven, two thousand seventeen. That's where we played
Speaker 1: the unedited phone taps. I believe now that was episode
Speaker 1: fifty because I'm tweeted editing. Yeah. By the way, since
Speaker 1: it's Halloween week, goal listening episode fifty and you'll hear
Speaker 1: our unedited phone taps. You're welcome their Halloween theme. They're
Speaker 1: perfect just in time of the season. Going back to
Speaker 1: her email, every time I hear y'all read the emails,
Speaker 1: I want to send you one, and once I get
Speaker 1: caught up, and if y'all read my email, maybe I'll
Speaker 1: get to hear a little snippet of it. Guess what
Speaker 1: you will at some point, but not right now because
Speaker 1: you're an episode four team. See maybe in three more years. Um. Anyway,
Speaker 1: that being said, I enjoyed listening to you all on
Speaker 1: the fifteen minute Morning show and this podcast. I always
Speaker 1: turn on the Brooklyn Boys while network. Like everyone else
Speaker 1: who writes, I love the rants and y'all's arguing. The
Speaker 1: only thing I hate is that I can't chime in
Speaker 1: on the arguments. Why are you not live? Well, that's
Speaker 1: not a podcast radio show? Yeah, writing this email on
Speaker 1: October seventee. What year will it be When I hear this,
Speaker 1: I will write to you. Then I feel like episode
Speaker 1: two hundred, we should maybe experiment with the thing we've
Speaker 1: been talking about experimenting with. Yes, I think so too. Alright,
Speaker 1: let's throwing out maybe that lit the b b Q. Alright,
Speaker 1: So here's what I want to wrap up with. And
Speaker 1: and just scary. We have teased you about slipping in
Speaker 1: a commercial endorsements, and you'll endorse any product, and you
Speaker 1: do a good job with clients. You're you're a fan
Speaker 1: of I get that. You know what, No, he promotes
Speaker 1: their clients like you. So I'm gonna I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: ahead and I'm gonna mention a client. But only because
Speaker 1: in order to mention this client on your on your
Speaker 1: social media, don't interrupt. You risk the lives of yourself
Speaker 1: and the people around you. On the verizontal bridge, the
Speaker 1: second the is it the that's the second longest suspension
Speaker 1: bridge in the world. It was at the time the
Speaker 1: longest suspension bridge in America, I believe, or second to
Speaker 1: the Golden Gate. I forget, which doesn't matter, don't twet me.
Speaker 1: But it's it's one of the longest suspension bridges in
Speaker 1: the world while driving. I don't know if you followed
Speaker 1: this truck from the warehouse to make it look like
Speaker 1: you just happened to pull up behind it. But I
Speaker 1: see you changing lanes and passing cars to get in
Speaker 1: behind the truck from a company that you are currently
Speaker 1: doing an endorsement for, and you filmed it on your
Speaker 1: phone back of the truck, and you wrote, I see
Speaker 1: you at Dumbo Moving for Dumbo Moving Company. You tagged them.
Speaker 1: I have a field. Please tell me you didn't tag
Speaker 1: them while driving. Please tell me that was late. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna okay, slices, I'm about to just take the wind
Speaker 1: out of Brodie Sales right here. My girlfriend taped that
Speaker 1: from the passenger seat. Well, that ruins the joke. You
Speaker 1: don't have to do that. You don't have to do
Speaker 1: a podcast. Why would you say that? Because I'm being honest,
Speaker 1: because I don't want people to think I'm a fucking idiot.
Speaker 1: And then I'm that I'm that I'm driving a car
Speaker 1: over a bridge on an expressway and I have my
Speaker 1: phone out because I would never do that. Okay, but
Speaker 1: you were driving and passing people, and I will say,
Speaker 1: I will say this. I will give you that much. Um,
Speaker 1: they are my client, they wore my client, and they
Speaker 1: are and they I was driving and I spotted them
Speaker 1: past me. They whizzed past me. I'm like, the right lane.
Speaker 1: I know. I was on the left lane because it
Speaker 1: was the first was the lane to the Bell the
Speaker 1: Bell Parkway. Wait, hold on up and grab a camera.
Speaker 1: I was like, take out your phone. I'm like, give
Speaker 1: me some footage, give me some footage. So she she
Speaker 1: grabbed the footage and hastily and that's the first time
Speaker 1: your girlfriend ever ever grabbed the footage, if you know what.
Speaker 1: So so she basically did the taping for me and
Speaker 1: I did the weaving to try and get I had
Speaker 1: to get near the truck so I can get the
Speaker 1: proper angle we were actually we're talking about, truth be told.
Speaker 1: I was trying to catch up to it for a
Speaker 1: good ten minutes because it started on the stat Now
Speaker 1: and Expressway where it went past me, and then finally
Speaker 1: I caught up to it on the bridge. Um yeah again.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so I wasn't being reckless broke, but you
Speaker 1: did go above and beyond I did for your client.
Speaker 1: I did. That's next level ship right there next level
Speaker 1: there on the way. I do I do have a
Speaker 1: bone to pick with you on that commercial because you
Speaker 1: say I'm from Brooklyn, but you don't say that the
Speaker 1: moving companies from Brooklyn or they specialized in Brooklyn. So
Speaker 1: it sort of seems like something was edited out of
Speaker 1: the commercial just a future reference, because yeah, Dumbo is
Speaker 1: is where they started in Britain. It stands for down
Speaker 1: under the Manhattan and Brooklyn bridges. Right. I'm sorry, it's
Speaker 1: down under the Manhattan and Brooklyn overpass, right because there's
Speaker 1: a there's a road that connects. It's the it's the
Speaker 1: beak that yes, uh yeah. That that commercial they're probably
Speaker 1: needs some more context. Also, there's a grammatical error in
Speaker 1: the commercial you do with Garrett for Delarusso Eye laser
Speaker 1: I mentioned. Let's talk about that. No, no, I'm just
Speaker 1: saying these are things, but let's let's fix that. Dumbo
Speaker 1: commercially deserve the best. I think we should go to
Speaker 1: Dumbo for some pizza. Alright, stopping you may get me
Speaker 1: hungry now I've had too much pizza. But you know
Speaker 1: what it is, Brooklyn. You missed it again. No,
