Speaker 1: Guy named Brett Darren. He's an A and R and
Speaker 1: publishing consultant, former casting consultant for America's Got Talented Americans?

Speaker 1: interested in putting together a girl group? Yeah? I mean,
Speaker 1: now here's the thing. Is he talking about an orgy
Speaker 1: or is he talking about a music group? Either way,
Speaker 1: I'm in So I never contacted him back. But what
Speaker 1: do you think? Scary? Should I should? I like? Why me?
Speaker 1: Why would he ask me? Because I passed? Did you? Yes?
Speaker 1: He contacted you? Sure did? No, dude, you got my
Speaker 1: sloppy seconds on this one. I got all these girls
Speaker 1: sloppy seconds. I gotta find it in Instagram and pull
Speaker 1: it up. What's his name? I'm Brett. I love these people.
Speaker 1: They're playing Mommy and Daddy with us, Good Cop, Bad Cop.
Speaker 1: Well you know I didn't go first. Well, because let's
Speaker 1: check the date. Hold on, what's his name? I'm searching? No,

Speaker 1: I did a screenshot, So let me go back to
Speaker 1: my install. You tell me what yours is, and I'll
Speaker 1: I'll pull up my Instagram and see what day it was.
Speaker 1: It could have been the same day. Let me say,
Speaker 1: hold on, I'm scrolling the search on mine doesn't work.
Speaker 1: If I search for Brett, it'll show me every bread
Speaker 1: on Instagram doesn't September, I am okay. Nothing like sitting
Speaker 1: there after midnight, hanging out in bed or wherever he
Speaker 1: may be, and hitting up my d M s. Here
Speaker 1: come the group text messages. Oh my god, stop, So
Speaker 1: let me just tell you what you would you be
Speaker 1: interested in putting together a girl group? And I wrote, yeah,
Speaker 1: copy and paste. I would not know the first thing
Speaker 1: about it. I'm not a record label. And then he writes,
Speaker 1: you're in radio, so figured you knew some talent. And
Speaker 1: then he gave me the emoji with the shades. Now
Speaker 1: is he throwing shade or like sorry? Or what is
Speaker 1: that supposed to be cute when you throw the emoji
Speaker 1: with the sunglasses on it? I don't know. I got
Speaker 1: the emoji with sunglasses. Yeah. And then and then um,
Speaker 1: I wrote back to him, I wish, but it would
Speaker 1: also be a violation of my contract and a conflict
Speaker 1: of interest with what I do for a living l
Speaker 1: O L. Because it's true, I mean, because we work
Speaker 1: in dude, we never in real life be able to
Speaker 1: uh to put together. You just couldn't pitch them to
Speaker 1: the radio station. You couldn't you couldn't do anything to
Speaker 1: help them. I was under the impression that we can't
Speaker 1: do anything in the music industry that would taint or
Speaker 1: sway and said, you know, you know anything, because then
Speaker 1: that means I can manipulate the playlist. You know, if this,
Speaker 1: what if this girl group becomes big, I might have
Speaker 1: to step aside from my radio job. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I don't know about this. I guess the podcast is okay.
Speaker 1: It can also be talent searched through the station. Not
Speaker 1: so much. I love you, Brett. Um. I wouldn't know
Speaker 1: the first thing about getting together a group, producing a group.
Speaker 1: I'm not. I just don't understand why he would come
Speaker 1: to two producers on a morning show, Scooter Braun, Scary Braun,
Speaker 1: skip me a bo bop. I don't. I don't get it.

Speaker 1: got another blanket text this week. Let me let me
Speaker 1: pull up the other one I got this week, and
Speaker 1: you tell me what you make of this, because I

Speaker 1: she doesn't follow anyone else from the morning show. So
Speaker 1: somehow she likes only me on the morning show. Right.
Speaker 1: It's not like she's a Brooklyn Boys fan, because you
Speaker 1: would have followed you also on the Brooklyn Boys, so
Speaker 1: I said. So I wrote, Um, thanks for a nice note, Mara.
Speaker 1: I have a question. You don't follow any of my
Speaker 1: co workers, so I'm wondering how come how you came
Speaker 1: about my work or my Instagram account? She says, Oh,
Speaker 1: I saw you on Clubhouse wanted to extended thank you.
Speaker 1: I'm an actress and a producer. Okay, So, so I
Speaker 1: wrote back, Okay, but I'm not on Clubhouse. I assumed
Speaker 1: you were a listener to my morning show or my podcast,
Speaker 1: but you aren't. Forgive me. I often get people copy
Speaker 1: and paste notes to people in the industry who just
Speaker 1: want to connect to other people, and that's fine. I
Speaker 1: was just curious as to what I've done it you'd
Speaker 1: like so I can keep doing it? What is it?
Speaker 1: Exactly I've done that. You like, I have not a response. No,

Speaker 1: lot of like industry shows. I don't see any other
Speaker 1: comics that I that I'm looking at. Not of politicians.
Speaker 1: We overlap on some politicians. Huh uh No, nobody, nobody
Speaker 1: that I know. But she follows me, and she's thanking
Speaker 1: me for my work. But apparently she thinks I'm great
Speaker 1: on Clubhouse. Well you know something wing on Clubhouse? Who
Speaker 1: must be raking it in? Well maybe he's out of
Speaker 1: the David Broody. Oh can we talk about that? No,
Speaker 1: I'd rather not that that ruins my day. That can
Speaker 1: I just tell you. I would like to send a

Speaker 1: problem with with two people who sent me vicious hate tweets. Okay,

Speaker 1: your son of a bitch. She attacked me like a
Speaker 1: lot like people do when I think I'm the guy. Okay.

Speaker 1: I wrote like six people right because the guy said
Speaker 1: something that most people would think is stupid, and they

Speaker 1: immediately said, my mistake. I didn't realize. I didn't. She
Speaker 1: took it down after she said no. She didn't realized.
Speaker 1: You know, Jason Curly, thank you very much for your
Speaker 1: for your hate love. You know what I love so
Speaker 1: much about us, about about our podcast. But we always
Speaker 1: know how to start on such a positive note. And
Speaker 1: there it was, Oh would you like a positive note?
Speaker 1: I'll give you a positive note right after this, because
Speaker 1: I was gonna drag us down. I was gonna bring
Speaker 1: us right back into the mud because I gotta complaint.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm seeing them with anger Brodie. But I'll save that.
Speaker 1: It could be a scary rant for later on. But
Speaker 1: now we gotta we gotta balance it out, all right. Well,
Speaker 1: thank you Jason Romana, who I didn't thank for sticking
Speaker 1: up for me. But I had some good news. You
Speaker 1: got you save money in your car insurance. I did
Speaker 1: so after almost a year of trying to get it
Speaker 1: done and getting a graphic that was high res enough
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Boys dot Big Cartel dot com. That's Brooklyn Boys
Speaker 1: dot Big car Cartel dot com. There you go. You
Speaker 1: can now purchase a Walker's and Talkers T shirt. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's right there in the store right there, so have
Speaker 1: at it. It's a very it's a multi call. It's
Speaker 1: more colors than one logo than anything the Brooklyn Boys
Speaker 1: put together so far. However, we talked about some merchandise
Speaker 1: land this week on this on this podcast on the
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Boys, and we have an updoda merchandise And by
Speaker 1: the way, I'm getting a little excited because we saw
Speaker 1: some designs for some said merchandise. Team has already worked
Speaker 1: on some designs and by the way, he created three
Speaker 1: new ornaments, three ornaments for a Christmas tree, and all
Speaker 1: three of them I'm in love with. But yeah, and
Speaker 1: he's going to continue. Um nobody, there'd be some hone.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah. Also, I had an idea for a shirts scared.
Speaker 1: Do you think people would buy the shirt? It says
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Boys dot big Cartel dot com. Then in big letters,
Speaker 1: much bigger font, this says that's and then it gives
Speaker 1: the Brooklyn Boys that big Cartel dot com again. Uh maybe,
Speaker 1: I don't know if that would sell. Maybe a wallpaper
Speaker 1: for your laptop. I don't know if that would sell.
Speaker 1: Maybe a tattoo. I got burned out of twenty bucks
Speaker 1: over the weekend. I was upset. I had radio music festival. No,
Speaker 1: this isn't the rant, This isn't the rant. No, No,
Speaker 1: the rant is the rant. Happened yesterday afternoon afternoon, and
Speaker 1: it loved fucking fun. Me over with my food? You know,
Speaker 1: one who comes between me and my food? Okay, pisses me.
Speaker 1: I want to lose a finger. So I was at
Speaker 1: I heard a music festival and we were backstage hanging
Speaker 1: out at the Warner Brothers music lounge. They do it
Speaker 1: like a special thing for some of the artists and um,
Speaker 1: some of the people that are hanging out back there.
Speaker 1: And I was, you know me, I like to what
Speaker 1: do they call old school eighties reference hob nob with
Speaker 1: the goober smoochers just stole that one guy who used
Speaker 1: to work Okay, anyway, I used to be basically hanging
Speaker 1: out with some friends and in radio, and there was
Speaker 1: a guy and then again judging a book by its cover, um,
Speaker 1: that's what this story is about. He was standing in
Speaker 1: the corner, tall, like lanky guy, blonde hair, just had
Speaker 1: a T shirt on with a giant credential around his neck.
Speaker 1: You know. So I'm like, maybe he's probably probably a
Speaker 1: record guy and he's talking to just one person and
Speaker 1: no one else is around them. So one of our
Speaker 1: one of our friends from Detroit I believe, or where
Speaker 1: were we Chicago? She was like, hey, one of our
Speaker 1: radio friends. She says, hey, because that's Phineas. Phineas if
Speaker 1: you don't know, is is the older brother of Billie
Speaker 1: Eilish helped her. The two of them collapsed on on
Speaker 1: on her album When You Go to Sleep? Where do
Speaker 1: you go When We Go to Sleep? You know? That
Speaker 1: the smash album that we were playing five songs from,
Speaker 1: and he had been on stage with her probably about
Speaker 1: half hours on stage with Billie Eilish with her with
Speaker 1: bill Billy a half hour prior, rocking his fucking guitar,
Speaker 1: just just fucking playing like like frenetically with her, like
Speaker 1: going crazy. And I was there to see it, right
Speaker 1: in the front and that though. I was. I walked
Speaker 1: into the pit to see her set and he's going crazy.
Speaker 1: Someone's going nuts, right, and then and then and then
Speaker 1: fast forward a half hour and the dude's in there right,
Speaker 1: and then she goes, hey, that's that's got that's Phineas.
Speaker 1: Looks like him, and I'm finish jab. I'm like, that's
Speaker 1: not like, there's no fucking way that's Phineas. I said
Speaker 1: that it's faux Phineas. And then and she's like, no,
Speaker 1: it's him. So she starts googling pictures and images and
Speaker 1: and I'm like, look, why don't you just look at
Speaker 1: the video that I took a half hour ago. So
Speaker 1: we take my video from Instagram and we're trying to
Speaker 1: spause it and like look, and I'm like, look, the
Speaker 1: sideburns don't match. I'm like, that's not him. I'm like,
Speaker 1: and plus he's got higher cheakbones with her sidebones. He
Speaker 1: took his sideburns off. And that's so I'm looking. I'm looking,
Speaker 1: and she's looking. And and now four of us and
Speaker 1: our friends Spike from the Mojo show in the morning,
Speaker 1: he was he gets in on it goes, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: I think that's fake Phineas. And then the other girl goes, now,
Speaker 1: that's Phineas fraud and then I'm like yes, and then
Speaker 1: she's like, dude, it's got to be him. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: but look look at the frame. And now we're holding
Speaker 1: up my phone with the picture that I took thirty
Speaker 1: minutes prior, and the guy standing in front of us,
Speaker 1: and obviously the outfit was completely different. And I'm like
Speaker 1: and I'm like, not a he uh, I'll bet you
Speaker 1: twenty bucks so that it wasn't, you know, some guy,
Speaker 1: one of the guys from put up twenty bucks. The
Speaker 1: girl decided not to you know again, and I said, no,
Speaker 1: that's Faul Finias. I said twenty bucks. Twenty bucks says
Speaker 1: he's fineas and I said, nope, not a shot. Now
Speaker 1: wait a minute, you're the guy who I convinced some
Speaker 1: guy in a restaurant was the quarterback of the New
Speaker 1: York Giants because he had a blue teeth. Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones before but when he first was a rookie,
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, that's right, and I'm like, I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know what I said, I'm not gonna fall for
Speaker 1: that ship again. That's fake finas So this is partly
Speaker 1: I'm I'm partly to blame for his story. You are,
Speaker 1: because I don't believe it anymore. We're not falling for
Speaker 1: the banana the tail pipe again. Plus, if you think
Speaker 1: about it, it was thirty minutes ago. And what is
Speaker 1: the artists? What do the artists do after they perform
Speaker 1: the off? They leave? No, they leave because they're finished
Speaker 1: or they're fineast there, it's it's the f I N
Speaker 1: finale then done? So a long story longer? Uh oh good?
Speaker 1: He goes at this right the guy from the radio, wait,
Speaker 1: hold on, yeah, it's been edited. If you're listening to
Speaker 1: this right now, we edited this down from thirty seven minutes.
Speaker 1: He went, he goes over, he goes and he goes, yeah,
Speaker 1: he goes. Thank you can take a picture. Sure, click
Speaker 1: it wass fucking phinny is to explain his sideburns against
Speaker 1: all odds, I don't know. No, thanks, uh, Phil Collins.
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe it was just hanging out in the
Speaker 1: He was just hanging out in the freaking room drinking,
Speaker 1: no one around him, no security guards, and he was
Speaker 1: just wearing a ragged T shirt with some jeans, and
Speaker 1: he had a pass over on him like an actual credential.
Speaker 1: Well he's Jewish, a credential, he said, pass over a
Speaker 1: pass on. Okay, So I just know that, you know,
Speaker 1: some of yours, some celebrities could just be hanging out incognito,
Speaker 1: just kind of like chilling, mingling with the crowd, not
Speaker 1: wearing not trying to be like, I have sunglasses on,
Speaker 1: I don't have an entourage, I'm not hanging out in
Speaker 1: the corner. No, he's just talking to people at the bar,
Speaker 1: hanging out like it was just really cool. Pick phineas well.
Speaker 1: Speaking of Phil Collins, since you mentioned Phil Collins, Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you don't, you should know Phil Collins is, if
Speaker 1: nothing else for the drum solo in the airtight to
Speaker 1: Doom to Doom, to Doom, to Doom, Doom, don one
Speaker 1: of the most famous drum fills of all time. Okay,
Speaker 1: so I think I told the story about meeting Phil
Speaker 1: Collins and the close talker who used to work with us,
Speaker 1: who was rambling to him for like five minutes about
Speaker 1: every concept you ever saw. I did tell that story.
Speaker 1: So when I had met Phil Collins, I guess it
Speaker 1: was about four years ago. He had like he had
Speaker 1: a hip surgery and knee surgery, and he was he
Speaker 1: had lost a lot of weight. He wasn't walking well,
Speaker 1: but couldn't have been a nicer guy anyway, he's he
Speaker 1: was in a pace. I guess he's back in the band,
Speaker 1: but originally was in a band called Genesis, where he
Speaker 1: was just the drummer, which, by the way, they're saying
Speaker 1: Genesis is going to tour again and it will be
Speaker 1: their last tour. Interesting. Interesting that you're giving me news
Speaker 1: from a year ago. So Phil Collins was the drummer
Speaker 1: of Genesis and Peter Gabriel was the lead singer. Peter
Speaker 1: Gabriel left Genesis for his own solo career in the
Speaker 1: eighties and Phil Collins was thrown into the lead singer role.
Speaker 1: And then eventually when when solo, So you know, him
Speaker 1: from a he has a lot of hits. Well, they're
Speaker 1: already back on tours, Scary Jones. And the story is
Speaker 1: he's so frail that he's singing from a chair. So
Speaker 1: he just sits in a chair and then the band plays. Now,
Speaker 1: if you remember about I don't know, yes, uh, well
Speaker 1: you can't hit the high notes anymore, so he doesn't,
Speaker 1: and so I can't sing an him aloo boom, I
Speaker 1: can't stand and him all okay, okay. So if you
Speaker 1: remember Dave Grohl from Food Fighters also, who was the
Speaker 1: drummer in Nirvana and then became a singer and lead
Speaker 1: guitar player once Kurt Cobain died, So so Dave grohld
Speaker 1: Phil Collins. Something in common right there, drummers who became
Speaker 1: lead singers and then and in another career after the
Speaker 1: first band. So if you remember Dave Grohl had leg surgery,
Speaker 1: broke his leg or something. He did a whole tour
Speaker 1: sitting in a big throne. Could not could not walk.
Speaker 1: Axel Rose did that I think with a C D C.
Speaker 1: Sat in a chair. He couldn't, he couldn't run around,
Speaker 1: So not unheard of, but would you if you were
Speaker 1: a fan of this band and they're all like seventy
Speaker 1: at this point around seventy, would you feel ripped off
Speaker 1: that he wasn't running around and we'd be like, I
Speaker 1: came here to music, Ah can't I'm singing, I'm singing.
Speaker 1: I can't dance. I can't sing. But he jokes now
Speaker 1: during that song this video of him performing in Florida
Speaker 1: where he's joking about how he can't he can't dance.
Speaker 1: So so let me ask you this, what percent of
Speaker 1: his voice is still there? Is it still there? It's
Speaker 1: still Phil Collins. So this is the We're cashing in tour? Everyone, Well,
Speaker 1: this is the good. This has got to be the
Speaker 1: Gooba tour. I can't imagine he's gonna have much left
Speaker 1: in him. Spears breaking. You to see Britney Spears lip
Speaker 1: sinking in a chair, that would be like no good, right,
Speaker 1: pottery while you go see Brittany or Janet Jackson like
Speaker 1: you know performers or j low Is to see the dancing.
Speaker 1: Like if you want to see j Low in Constant
Speaker 1: she was in a chair, you would you wouldn't. That
Speaker 1: wouldn't be good, right? You want to see your butt
Speaker 1: shaking around carawling on the stage. But Phil Collins is seventy,
Speaker 1: you're like, no, non, Kevin moves around this amount. I
Speaker 1: don't know. You know, it depends on how much you
Speaker 1: love the artist, if you know it's going to be
Speaker 1: their last stand. No pun intended, definitely meant pun intended,
Speaker 1: pun intended. You know, if that was the case, and
Speaker 1: and this was your all time one of your favorites,
Speaker 1: I think I I would. I would go to the
Speaker 1: show anyway, just with lower expectations and really saying this
Speaker 1: is it is what it is, right. I mean. But
Speaker 1: if you're like Billy Joel for instance, too, he says
Speaker 1: to his piano, Well, he can get away with that
Speaker 1: because that's what he does, right, right, Well, Elton two
Speaker 1: years so Billy will come out. Elton doesn't move from
Speaker 1: the piano for the most he's another one, right, but
Speaker 1: Billy will come out and play like start start with
Speaker 1: his guitar and play we didn't start to fire or
Speaker 1: something like that. He doesn't we didn't start the fire,
Speaker 1: But yes he did. I saw him do it personally.
Speaker 1: You can't tell me what I but he did it
Speaker 1: in the one show he just opened up with that.
Speaker 1: I've seen the man like he was playing guitar, and
Speaker 1: he came in and he played guitar. But he plays
Speaker 1: guitar for one song and then he goes and sits
Speaker 1: at the piano and that's where his fatast. He plays
Speaker 1: piano standing up. He runs around the back of the stay.
Speaker 1: He's still not Billy Joel. He he walks with a
Speaker 1: little limp, you know, he does. He's been hitting with
Speaker 1: a few shells, but he walk You don't walk with
Speaker 1: a limp. Well, he walks with a limp, hasn't been
Speaker 1: hit with any shells. But yeah, point is, uh, I could,
Speaker 1: I could, I could forego I could. I love Billy
Speaker 1: that much that I'll continue to see him again and again. However,
Speaker 1: bon Jovia, on the other hand, I don't know. Man,
Speaker 1: they bon Jovi was in a chair and fist pumping
Speaker 1: from a chair, I'd be okay with it. See for me,
Speaker 1: it's like all right, like for instance, right now, like
Speaker 1: I've seen I've seen bon Jovi performed in recent years,
Speaker 1: and he does not hit the high. Now you're talking
Speaker 1: about the band of the band. Okay, I've seen them
Speaker 1: perform and John doesn't people call him bon Jovia. That's
Speaker 1: everything they're doing. All the songs are slowed down and
Speaker 1: more melodic, and they're not as they're not as like
Speaker 1: you know, rock metal edge like they used to, like
Speaker 1: you remember on the track. So I saw him on
Speaker 1: the Norwegian cruise line cruise a couple of years and
Speaker 1: listen to how he performs no offense. I love bon Jovia,
Speaker 1: I still admire and respect John and everyone, but but
Speaker 1: when he does live it on a prayer, it just
Speaker 1: doesn't have that oomph because it's like it's like a melodic,
Speaker 1: like slow light light FM version of a song. He's
Speaker 1: living on a cushioned prayer right now, it's just kind
Speaker 1: of it's all we're halfway then you can hit the
Speaker 1: notes he's got. It's not even it's not even as
Speaker 1: fast or furious or loud. It's a there's no there's
Speaker 1: no emphasis. And so that album came out, Okay, Slippery
Speaker 1: Wint Slippery win Wet came out. There was the third album,
Speaker 1: by the way, I was Living on a prayer that
Speaker 1: was I was on there. Yep, it's a massive mass.
Speaker 1: This problem is just fantastic. I have the original cover
Speaker 1: with the girl with the wet T shirt and the
Speaker 1: boob's popping out, and then that was too risky risque
Speaker 1: for a lot of retailers, so they came out with
Speaker 1: the road signed slippery Win Wet Yeah. But the original
Speaker 1: cover google it is a girl in a yellow cut
Speaker 1: off tank top with a boobs bursting. Anyway, so that
Speaker 1: song is thirty five years old right now, there are
Speaker 1: people listening to so many slices that are like, like,
Speaker 1: love that song even though it's older than you, because
Speaker 1: it's such a classic song. Classic right if you've seen
Speaker 1: him in concert and heard the song with thirty five
Speaker 1: years you know what, it's kind of a cool vibe
Speaker 1: the way he does it now. It's sort of a
Speaker 1: nice change of pace if I want to hear that,
Speaker 1: If I want to hear the rocking version, I can
Speaker 1: put on the you know, put on the music myself.
Speaker 1: So I don't mind the adaptation. But there's some songs
Speaker 1: I feel like, um oh, like, uh was it? What's
Speaker 1: what is it? Let it rock? Is it? Let it rock? No?
Speaker 1: Some of his will upbeat, like thunderous anthems. I feel
Speaker 1: like you, uh, you have to be upbeat for let
Speaker 1: it rock, Let it rock, Let it rock. No, No, no, no, no, anyway,
Speaker 1: there's some Bung Jovi songs you have to play, and
Speaker 1: he does. He does play electric versions of of some songs.
Speaker 1: But I think that you know, he's he's married with kids.
Speaker 1: He's sixty or fifties, late fifties, whatever it is, early sixties.
Speaker 1: Happen you have a bad name. It's like, you know
Speaker 1: now he's talking about his kids, boyfriend. No, I get it.
Speaker 1: It depends on Norwegian crews. So I was very excited.
Speaker 1: I'm going I'm just gonna say those It depends on
Speaker 1: how much you loved these artists. These legacy artists would talk, well,
Speaker 1: who is your favorite? Will you see you too? You too?
Speaker 1: Sitting in chairs? They did an acoustic set, you would
Speaker 1: I'd go, yeah, Beasty Boys, Beasty Boys, not even not
Speaker 1: even a question, I'd go, I know, unless you would,
Speaker 1: of course, right, I mean I want to go see
Speaker 1: them act out their book twice. You know, they had
Speaker 1: their book coming out and they did their their their book.
Speaker 1: They read from their book and they told stories to
Speaker 1: the audience. There was no music involved there. But you know,
Speaker 1: the surviving members of the Beastie Boys, how can I
Speaker 1: think you know what time it is? It's time to
Speaker 1: sit still. I can't stand till Brooklyn. Yeah, well listen,
Speaker 1: getting older it's a thing, right, Yeah, I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: blessed press now really really, well, are you depressed? Because
Speaker 1: Phil Collins was all right, what are you gonna do?
Speaker 1: You know? Yes, we do that on every break. By
Speaker 1: the way, you notice that the Boys podcast, we both
Speaker 1: both cut each other off and then we both paused
Speaker 1: to see what each other had to say. Oh, like
Speaker 1: like that, like that. We got some angry text messages
Speaker 1: on the Elvis rd Morning Show today, and I think
Speaker 1: sometimes people developing here, by the way, with angry texts. Well,
Speaker 1: how about Monday. I don't know what happened Monday. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna read them all, but Monday was just vile, angry,
Speaker 1: upset with everything, people offended, hurt. How dare you? You
Speaker 1: should be ashamed of yourself. So Danielle mentioned that Danielle
Speaker 1: and Elvis were talking about how they bought some stuff
Speaker 1: on Amazon. They got Amazon packages. I think Elvis said, everybody,
Speaker 1: what was the last thing got from Amazon? Everybody around
Speaker 1: the room and talk about that from Amazon. So people
Speaker 1: would text. A couple of people texted in don't shop
Speaker 1: at Amazon. They treat your employees like crap. Right, So,
Speaker 1: so I thought to myself, I understand the point, right,
Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying. But here's the problem. If
Speaker 1: you don't shop at Amazon, you've you've taught Jeff Bezos
Speaker 1: a lesson. But all those people who work there will
Speaker 1: lose their jobs. Right, You're like, don't shop at that?
Speaker 1: What what about the employees? They treat the employees like crap.
Speaker 1: But if the employees don't have jobs to be treated
Speaker 1: like crap. So I don't know where the balance is,
Speaker 1: but I think we all we we far too often
Speaker 1: say don't shop there. Yes, you're not realizing the ramifications.
Speaker 1: And then you choose a company that's a bigger offender,
Speaker 1: but you don't even realize it because they're owned by
Speaker 1: another company. Sometimes that people say, we'll support local, and
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of that, but sometimes local businesses
Speaker 1: are owned by assholes. Yeah, and guess what, sometimes those
Speaker 1: local businesses go through Amazon to have their products sold. Well,
Speaker 1: that's also true. So I mean, you can't just avoid
Speaker 1: them because they're you know, Well, how about you remember
Speaker 1: the the the It was about ten years ago where
Speaker 1: everyone wanted a boycott gas stations for a day. That
Speaker 1: was always a thing like that would be a big thing. Okay,
Speaker 1: on September three, nobody by gas. We'll teach these gas
Speaker 1: stations a lesson these gas companies. Right, well, that's fine,
Speaker 1: but you're gonna go by gas the next day, going
Speaker 1: to get gas. You're gonna may right, they may set
Speaker 1: them before. So the only thing is their profits are
Speaker 1: just delayed by a couple of days. Right, It's not
Speaker 1: you're gonna stop using gas. You're like, we're not. Everyone's
Speaker 1: gonna just well, do a gas out on Tuesday, gas out. Okay,
Speaker 1: then you're gonna have long lines on Wednesday. Who you you?
Speaker 1: You you? That's how you fight a gas company. We're
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna you switched to electric. That's how you
Speaker 1: how You're right, that's ultimately, that's what I'm going to
Speaker 1: oil heat funk all y'all, Well, that's still gas. You're
Speaker 1: talking about natural gas. That's you know, natural gas versus
Speaker 1: oil versus gas. But still it's not oil heat versus
Speaker 1: gas heat oil. He's still oil. The oil oil. It's
Speaker 1: from some of the same companies that make gasoline. So
Speaker 1: you're fucked either way. Right, that's why I have to
Speaker 1: use natural gas. But in the in the world of fuel,
Speaker 1: then you you would you would buy a you know,
Speaker 1: a tesla right right, if you, if you, if you
Speaker 1: really want to screw over the you know, the gas companies,
Speaker 1: you know in the heating companies just live in the cold.
Speaker 1: They're just live in a cold house. You'll show them
Speaker 1: some utilities are unavoidable and you can't boy up. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I wanted to bring something up. Well, you
Speaker 1: should get a podcast maybe. Um. So yesterday I was,
Speaker 1: how would you handle this, Brodie? What would Brody do?
Speaker 1: W w B d Um ordered a salad from Sweet Green.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna call him out, I was. I was
Speaker 1: struggling in my head. Do I call these people out
Speaker 1: or not? Yes? Sweet Green Sweeten famous chain. They have
Speaker 1: a hundred twenty two stores around the country. Now they
Speaker 1: they're blown up the vegetables so well, they're still salad,
Speaker 1: you know, not really your speedy. They do fancy salad
Speaker 1: they do. They do things with roasted like sweet potatoes
Speaker 1: and their chicken roasted spicy roccoli in there they throw.
Speaker 1: You know, it's one of those salad places that have
Speaker 1: they made their mark. Um. But here in the in
Speaker 1: the city. There are a bunch of locations New York City,
Speaker 1: New York City, right Manhattan. They opened up a location
Speaker 1: in Jersey and New Jersey, Brody, New Jersey. Now Here
Speaker 1: comes the relatable part where I think that you know,
Speaker 1: what would Brody do? Okay? They the only Sweet Green
Speaker 1: this side of the Hudson. And by the way, it's
Speaker 1: a very well respected and known brand and brand we've
Speaker 1: established that. I'm done to know what happened? I ordered.
Speaker 1: I ordered a salad with a bunch of things in it,
Speaker 1: of course, with some kind of pesto, something dressing and
Speaker 1: chicken and you know, a scary Jones style salad. You know,
Speaker 1: they had a parmesan parmesan shavings on it, a hard
Speaker 1: boiled egg in there. So extra healthy, extra extra. Now
Speaker 1: what is it in the Greek sality cream? What? What?
Speaker 1: What is it in the Greek salle you hated? I forgot?
Speaker 1: Oh nothing, I forgot. I don't know. From one of
Speaker 1: our earlier episodes when and if they leave the pits
Speaker 1: in the olives, that wasn't it. There was some mr
Speaker 1: ingredient you didn't like, whatever it was, I don't know that.
Speaker 1: The point here is I ordered it through seamless tweet
Speaker 1: scary letter and you guys remember go ahead, So you
Speaker 1: ordered through seamless, and I thought I smelled something funny
Speaker 1: there was I thought something was up before I ordered it.
Speaker 1: Looked at my Google reviews. This place has reached a
Speaker 1: three point oh out of five stars. I'm like, hawk,
Speaker 1: that is awful. Then I then I go to Yelp
Speaker 1: and I see it has two point five stars. I'm like, huh,
Speaker 1: guess what it's this fucking location. It's it's the specific
Speaker 1: location that sucks up your ship. But I didn't you
Speaker 1: know what it's We've green how bad could it really be?
Speaker 1: All the other locations are fucking phenomenal and over the
Speaker 1: moon and off the charts awesome. But that's a culture
Speaker 1: they've created over years where people know how to you know, place, Well,
Speaker 1: that's all the other ones. All the other ones have
Speaker 1: great reviews. Right, yeah, you're talking about a franchise location.
Speaker 1: That's where I went wrong. I ordered it seamless, let's
Speaker 1: put it this way, and it wasn't seamless as what
Speaker 1: I'm here. Well, it shows up the fucking salad with
Speaker 1: all the delivery fees and all the extra extras cost
Speaker 1: me thirty thirty three zero dollars. And it was the
Speaker 1: only item cheese on top. It was the only thing
Speaker 1: I got in my in the cart. It was the
Speaker 1: only fucking item. And when I've gone this week Green
Speaker 1: before Brodie, I used to fucking pile that thing into
Speaker 1: the into the bowl. And in fact, and they used
Speaker 1: to put the cover on top, in the plastic cover.
Speaker 1: It was like a Starbucks cover where it would overflow.
Speaker 1: You know, the whipped cream, the whipped cream, you know,
Speaker 1: a little opening at the top, you know how you
Speaker 1: know how the Starbucks has the whip dome. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: salad used to come with a dome and he used
Speaker 1: to just pack it on, used to open up the
Speaker 1: fucking flat leg. Well yeah, not only did I get
Speaker 1: flat lid, and it gets worse, they flat lid at me.
Speaker 1: And it was only half full. It was like a
Speaker 1: soup bowl, a small soup bowl that was like kind
Speaker 1: of half full, half empty. Just well, that's me. I'm
Speaker 1: pessimist today. Yeah, well no, I'm the pestimistimist. I'm the optimist, optimist,
Speaker 1: the optimist, the pessimist. And but the salad wasn't even
Speaker 1: touching the flat lid. But it gets worse. They forgot
Speaker 1: the fucking salad dressing. What dude, salad place, How do
Speaker 1: you forget the salade? Far as I'm concerned, that's the
Speaker 1: entire meal, because eating dry salad is not even an option.
Speaker 1: So I went on seamless and I'm like, what the fuck?
Speaker 1: And I go back and forth because at first I
Speaker 1: called the place and they're like, all right, I got
Speaker 1: Sweet Green. I'm sorry. I went to Sweet called the place,
Speaker 1: and I got pushed to Sweet Greens online chat because
Speaker 1: the people at the local store don't want to hear
Speaker 1: from you. They just want to busy the salad dress.
Speaker 1: They want to suck you over. So yeah, well that's
Speaker 1: exactly it. So so they push you to the the
Speaker 1: corporate chat. So I I laid into them on the
Speaker 1: corporate chat and I'm like, look, I'm like, you're one
Speaker 1: of your local stores. Is leading a stain on your brand?
Speaker 1: I said, because this this, and this happened, charge me
Speaker 1: three dollars for a second. It wasn't a salad dressing stain,
Speaker 1: you know that much exactly, So I said, So I
Speaker 1: said to them, and they're like, oh, sorry, you have
Speaker 1: to go to seamless because you ordered your food from there. Well, Seamless,
Speaker 1: that's bullshit. So Seamless. I go to the what's missing
Speaker 1: this and that and the other thing, and then Seamless
Speaker 1: is like, uh, they don't even leave have salad dressing
Speaker 1: as an option. It's just like, is the cucumbers missing?
Speaker 1: Is the chicken? Is the beats? I'm like, no, none
Speaker 1: of the above, and it says, okay, we're done here.
Speaker 1: Like no, I had rewind and I go back to
Speaker 1: the beginning, and I say, okay, they they made my
Speaker 1: order wrong. I chose that selection and it seems goes
Speaker 1: we've fund to But that's a seams But that's Seamless.
Speaker 1: My issue is not with Seamless. I'm still pissed at
Speaker 1: the fucking store. First of all, you're tarnishing the brand.
Speaker 1: I go down to the Google reviews. I go to
Speaker 1: the Yelp reviews. You guys, hey slices, Google Sweet Green,
Speaker 1: Hudson Street, Jersey City, New Jersey. Oh seven three one
Speaker 1: oh that specific you are hardcore? No Google it, look
Speaker 1: at and look at the review at least look at

Speaker 1: fucking place. It's one complain after the next they're so
Speaker 1: Chiinsey with the food. They're so the salad was the
Speaker 1: salad was dry. Someone uploaded a picture of plastic wrap
Speaker 1: that was inside the salad. Say, um, I don't think
Speaker 1: this is supposed to be here in my paying extra
Speaker 1: for it? Like like literally problem if the problem? You know,
Speaker 1: I complained about I complained about the food not being
Speaker 1: up to par or and they said yeah so and
Speaker 1: got blue drink with me. The people behind the counter,
Speaker 1: what a bunch of assholes and they don't want to
Speaker 1: answer their phone. Who owns this place? People, I'm so pissed.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying this is wrong on so many levels.
Speaker 1: You want to you're the only I'm gonna call it
Speaker 1: the flagship Sweet Green for New Jersey, the state of
Speaker 1: New Jersey, because there are no other ones here and
Speaker 1: this is this is your introduction, your debut to a
Speaker 1: very crowded salad market. Might I ask? Might I add
Speaker 1: in Jersey City and Hoboken. You know, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of people that are very big on salad, and there
Speaker 1: are ten places that are ten times better. But I
Speaker 1: see the Sweet Green logo. I'm a loyal customer. Sweet
Speaker 1: Green when all the city ones and now they sucked
Speaker 1: me over here at this location and I still have
Speaker 1: yet to get to anybody. I said, I want to
Speaker 1: talk to the general manager of the store who owns
Speaker 1: this place. Why the fuck are they not? Are they
Speaker 1: not making good on this? I have to have seamless
Speaker 1: jump in and bite the bullet on a thirty one
Speaker 1: dollar salad that you guys only filled up halfway and
Speaker 1: didn't even give me my dressing or apologize for. And
Speaker 1: all the corporate chat did was saying, all right, we're
Speaker 1: gonna pass this song. We're gonna elevate this to corporate
Speaker 1: higher ups because some seems like some team training is
Speaker 1: in order here and they need to figure some stuff out.
Speaker 1: And I said, damn straight you do, because you're disappointing
Speaker 1: customers left and right. This is your introduction to the
Speaker 1: Jersey City market. Oh I'm so angry. You sound angry.
Speaker 1: I don't know why you let these places get you
Speaker 1: so upset. You know me, I let it all roll
Speaker 1: down my back. Okay, so I can't. Here's what I'm
Speaker 1: gonna do. I'm gonna promise you guys an update because
Speaker 1: I had a very similar situation to what Skier he's
Speaker 1: going through with. Uh we'll just call him t J.
Speaker 1: I my days, Okay. Uh it was I would say
Speaker 1: eleven points seven times worse than the story you just told.
Speaker 1: And this was back in uh first week of August.
Speaker 1: So now we're looking at almost two months where they
Speaker 1: have not helped me. Corporate is not helping me. However,
Speaker 1: Uh while I was napping today, Uh John from the
Speaker 1: corporate office called me left me a voicemail to go
Speaker 1: over and talk to me about the situation I had
Speaker 1: in my local right, so this is after will you
Speaker 1: hear the story. I'm not gonna do it now because
Speaker 1: it's gonna sound a lot like what you just told
Speaker 1: and I don't want to be It's too much negativity.
Speaker 1: And by the way, I'm not gonna most slices of
Speaker 1: saying like, you know what, why did he say sweet Greens?
Speaker 1: And then because I know that's what we do at
Speaker 1: the end of the rent truth do it. Nope, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna do it because I love Sweet Green. I
Speaker 1: love I love them. They're the best except for that store.
Speaker 1: Fuck that location, okay of specifically right in the Jersey
Speaker 1: City location. They never ever ever done me dirty and
Speaker 1: I've been I've been going to them since I'm so angry.
Speaker 1: Right now, let me give you a customer service experience
Speaker 1: that wasn't necessarily bad, but because I'm prepared, Uh, this
Speaker 1: may be a helpful tip for you guys. So I
Speaker 1: told you how I got locked out of my house.
Speaker 1: I said that story, yes, right, So I had I
Speaker 1: broke a window by accident, a storm window, and so
Speaker 1: I took it to a window as I called. I
Speaker 1: called a couple of window places. One one company wanted
Speaker 1: eighty five dollars, one company that had had worked for
Speaker 1: me before wanted sixty five dollars. And then a third
Speaker 1: guy who came very well reviewed, wanted thirty dollars, but
Speaker 1: it would take a week, so it was longer. The
Speaker 1: other people were like two days, Like, well, I don't
Speaker 1: need a storm window. It's fine. I take a glass.
Speaker 1: So he said, you have thirty dollars, not a problem,
Speaker 1: drop it off and I take about a week because
Speaker 1: it was it was right after a storm here in
Speaker 1: the area, so a lot of people. It was after Ida,
Speaker 1: so a lot of people had like broken windows. So
Speaker 1: he was backed up. Okay, so he said thirty dollars.
Speaker 1: So in my notepad on my phone. I had put
Speaker 1: all the places, um phone numbers and names and their estimates.
Speaker 1: This way I can remember what all the estimates were,
Speaker 1: so I can look back and then a decision. Right,
Speaker 1: so I go Bob's Glass, Okay, blah blah and eight
Speaker 1: five dollars. Right, It's all on my notepad. And then
Speaker 1: when I just decided to go with the thirty dollar guy,
Speaker 1: I emailed myself his address, right, so i'd have it
Speaker 1: and the phone number and the quote of thirty dollars.
Speaker 1: You follow me so far? I do. So now I'm covered.
Speaker 1: I drop off the window. Uh. And I very nice guy,
Speaker 1: he says, I'll give you a calling me a call
Speaker 1: next next Wednesday, which was a week ago yesterday. So
Speaker 1: it's one of these like it looks like nobody's cleaned
Speaker 1: up the place or updated the place in a hundred years.
Speaker 1: Like all the guy does make less. Right. It's a shop.
Speaker 1: It's not a fancy store. It's a guy who just
Speaker 1: he's got a table. He's got a table in the
Speaker 1: back like a cutting he's got a desk, and he's
Speaker 1: got like hundreds of window panes lined up in the
Speaker 1: front leaning against the wall with tags on them. That's it,
Speaker 1: bare bones, past the savings onto the consumer. Okay, no computer, right,
Speaker 1: everything's on a notepad. He writes for seats, down post,
Speaker 1: it notes everywhere, not the most. But he's got a system, right,
Speaker 1: you know, he's got a system of dred years. So
Speaker 1: I got to pick up my window and he goes
Speaker 1: here you go, he goes, uh, that's uh forty dollars
Speaker 1: plus tax. But I it was, uh, sorry, you you
Speaker 1: quoted me thirty. No, the size of the window here
Speaker 1: that's forty. So I said, yeah, that's because it is
Speaker 1: more glassed, there's more more of a job, because it's bigger. No,
Speaker 1: he didn't say that. He didn't say, Look, it was
Speaker 1: harder than I thought. He said, oh no, not for
Speaker 1: his window. This windows forty. It's says my standard. That's forty.
Speaker 1: But what makes one window less than the other if
Speaker 1: it's the same labor well, if you well, it may
Speaker 1: not be maybe larger, alright, alright, alright, it may require
Speaker 1: to take off my mind screws. So I said, well,
Speaker 1: you quoted me thirty. No, that doesn't sound right. So
Speaker 1: I take out my notepad and I showed it to him,
Speaker 1: and he says, yeah, I don't think I would have
Speaker 1: said thirty. Then I showed him my email to myself
Speaker 1: and go, look, I emailed myself on that date you
Speaker 1: said thirty. I wrote it twice. So he says, well,
Speaker 1: let me check the measurements again, and he measures the
Speaker 1: glass and he goes, son of a bitch, yeah that's thirty.
Speaker 1: So all I'm saying is, well, I'm not blaming the guy.
Speaker 1: He was honest, man. He wasn't trying to take advantage.
Speaker 1: But sometimes people went out like a real filing system
Speaker 1: and a laptop or you know. He was going by
Speaker 1: post it note and his memory and his memory and
Speaker 1: he's trying to eyeball it. Yeah, and he put a
Speaker 1: post it note on the frame and said forty. But
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's not what you told him. Sometimes it's all,
Speaker 1: you know, it's all just opinion. How you feeling, How's
Speaker 1: which way is the wind blowing? Hopefully not towards my
Speaker 1: window because it was open. You know, what side of
Speaker 1: the bed did I wake up on this morning? You know,

Speaker 1: Something some would say they are back. It's not what
Speaker 1: I'm saying it because it's a package. Right, No, I
Speaker 1: did not. No, I was not calling you up. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, what your internet went off? Now you're back? No,
Speaker 1: I hit the mike cable. It's back. Yeah, No, you
Speaker 1: know I wasn't called Yeah, I wasn't calling you out
Speaker 1: on that A not at all. Alright, alright, moving on
Speaker 1: to other sound Yes, oh what are the clips do
Speaker 1: you have there? Of course the famous John Gruden clip? Oh,
Speaker 1: John Gruden. Remember when I we played the clip of
Speaker 1: the fan yelling about the home run they had Las
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders The Vegas Writers head coach John Gruden miked
Speaker 1: up and didn't turn his mic off. So while the
Speaker 1: announcers are talking about the game, listen to John Gruden
Speaker 1: in the background. And by the way, he is a
Speaker 1: former broadcaster and shouldn't know better. He was in the
Speaker 1: booth for head Monday Night Football to send the game
Speaker 1: into overtime. I mean, I think John is not the
Speaker 1: third man in the broadcast booth, but he is. You
Speaker 1: can't really hear it, but what was he saying? But
Speaker 1: by the way, it didn't help that they put the
Speaker 1: camera on him, so if you couldn't hear it, you
Speaker 1: could mouth the words and along with it. So it
Speaker 1: actually if there was any question what he was saying,
Speaker 1: the real problem is the cameraman who put the camera
Speaker 1: on him while he was cursing his upper storm. What
Speaker 1: what what was he? What was he pissed about? I
Speaker 1: don't know. I wasn't watching the game. I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: not a fan of John. So you have the Vikings clip. Alright,
Speaker 1: So some of you guys may have heard this already,
Speaker 1: but I was listening to UM the Sunday Drive. Now,
Speaker 1: the guy didn't do the line I wanted to play.
Speaker 1: He usually does with Bill Tory and Phil Tory and
Speaker 1: Bill Lets. He does like a whole likes the most fake, right.
Speaker 1: They didn't play that particular rejoined when I was in
Speaker 1: the car for the half hour. I was in the car,
Speaker 1: so I couldn't get that audio. Few guys, but I
Speaker 1: heard this clip when they want to let's go live
Speaker 1: because UM the Sunday Drive on the NFL channel. They
Speaker 1: go from game to game whenever someone's like in the
Speaker 1: red zone, we're close to scoring. So I heard this live.
Speaker 1: They're like, let's go live to Minnesota for the kick
Speaker 1: to win the game? Shop are you kidding me? Mr? Wright?
Speaker 1: All Right? So First of all, here an announcer, you
Speaker 1: have monitors. You also can see the line judges like
Speaker 1: put their hands up or wave them off. This guy
Speaker 1: is obviously a Homer, which is fine. Team it means,
Speaker 1: it means the announcer over roots for the team. Certain
Speaker 1: cities allow it, like everything. I was about to say,
Speaker 1: that's terrible. It shouldn't these broadcasters remain sort of neutral, Like,
Speaker 1: I mean, that isn't that bad. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: I don't live. We live in New York City where
Speaker 1: they're not allowed to do that. Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: Over the years, the Yankees have had had announcers that
Speaker 1: were Homer's. Phil Razuto, former player, was a Homer. I
Speaker 1: would I would say that the two current radio announcers
Speaker 1: they have now are major Homer's Atlanta. He's saying Homer
Speaker 1: by the way, Carry was a big Homer, Harry Carry
Speaker 1: in Chicago. Certain cities they've they've grown to love their announcers,
Speaker 1: and announcers are part of the fabric and they will
Speaker 1: cheer and live and die like a fan, whereas some
Speaker 1: announcers will be like yes, yes, home run. And they've
Speaker 1: they've they've taken a lead for making capture the energy.
Speaker 1: But they don't like yes, yes, like they don't loot.
Speaker 1: They're like they're like home roun here here in New York.
Speaker 1: You're screaming into the mike, here in New York. Here
Speaker 1: in New York with Gary Cohen, Ron Darling and Keith
Speaker 1: Hernandez du former, two former Mets and a former uh
Speaker 1: you know, fan of a fan of the Mets. He
Speaker 1: grew up and watched every went to every single game,
Speaker 1: Garry Cohen. They they clearly are Met fans, but they're
Speaker 1: tasteful and classy in the way, and they will spank
Speaker 1: the Mets for making bad plays or letting things happen.
Speaker 1: It's they're they're actually they're fans of the game and
Speaker 1: they want to be fair at the same time whatever
Speaker 1: you're used to. So I just can't believe that this
Speaker 1: exists in other cities. I was shocked to hear how
Speaker 1: biased some of these announcers are. I mean, you'll never
Speaker 1: get it on a national like Joe Buck, You'll never
Speaker 1: get it on the national broadcast because they're not they're
Speaker 1: not fans of the team. They're they're going to miscellaneous
Speaker 1: games when you watch, like I fell on Fox, but
Speaker 1: it's the radio guys that are the like the Jet
Speaker 1: announcers are on the radio, they screaming, go crazy at
Speaker 1: the end, I'm like, oh my god, it's so biased.
Speaker 1: I never really listened to tune into that before. So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna tweet something out. Let me pull
Speaker 1: up my Twitter play this more time? Are you kidding me? Mr?
Speaker 1: Right right? I'm gonna retweet this right now at David Brody.
Speaker 1: The tweets called the worst and what it is? Someone
Speaker 1: sent it to me right thank you for sending it
Speaker 1: to me. Uh. It is a kid stopping the tape
Speaker 1: of a Jets game. He's like a twelve year old
Speaker 1: kid and he uh he breaks down the play and
Speaker 1: shows you out of position everybody he is. And I mean,
Speaker 1: let me pull up the clip because I want you
Speaker 1: to hear the audio of this. Because at one point
Speaker 1: there's two Jets lineman standing off to the side. They
Speaker 1: look like they're about to block each other. There is
Speaker 1: nobody on the Patriots around. Listen to this kid, hold
Speaker 1: one play this songs up the New York Jets. This
Speaker 1: one has to be it. This Patriots winning off the edge.
Speaker 1: This Jets lineman is probably holding there's a patriot charging
Speaker 1: up the middle at sac with no blocking at all.
Speaker 1: This Jets dude is being pancakeed on the ground. Give
Speaker 1: these two idiots staring at each other like, Yo, what
Speaker 1: are we doing? I don't know, let's just stand here.
Speaker 1: I love that we have these two idiots. And literally,
Speaker 1: when you look at the picture, it's two Jets standing
Speaker 1: there like what do you want for lunch? I don't
Speaker 1: know what do you want for lunch? There's nothing happening
Speaker 1: around them, but they're just standing there and the quarterback
Speaker 1: is about to throw a horrific interception and they are
Speaker 1: doing nothing. And this kid, this kid watched the tape
Speaker 1: and shredded them and analyzed it good. Then I want
Speaker 1: to give this props for you, scary you get the
Speaker 1: upper hand here. Uh. Stephanie Minker at Ville two who seven?
Speaker 1: She tweeted at us, My daughter and I love the
Speaker 1: Brooklyn boys. Smart family. She said, Mom, you have to
Speaker 1: send this to them. Do you have their number? How
Speaker 1: cute is that? Maybe they will call us? She was
Speaker 1: too cute. Hope you enjoy. So this is a little
Speaker 1: girl in a in a minivan car seat. It looks
Speaker 1: like here it is hold him podcast. So it's scary.
Speaker 1: It's the bumper we play into commercial yeast right, I'll
Speaker 1: play it. People know what it is. I don't have
Speaker 1: to play it. Will have one that is right. We
Speaker 1: don't see you don't seem to play that one as
Speaker 1: much do I do? I I rotate. They just played
Speaker 1: yours three times in a row. We went to a
Speaker 1: full false commercial. You dick, I know how great was that?
Speaker 1: You got me to do it three times? I did,
Speaker 1: didn't I? So? Hey, I was a Target over the weekend.
Speaker 1: Love Target? Who doesn't love Target? Not a commercial target,
Speaker 1: Target practice, not a commercial with Target. So I two
Speaker 1: problems a target. One was the cashier. So I went
Speaker 1: with one of my kids and I got two boxes
Speaker 1: of cereal, some frozen pizzas, an ice cream that's also
Speaker 1: you know frozen, a board game, some candy whatever. So
Speaker 1: I like to organize everything on the conveyor belt when
Speaker 1: I go shopping. Put all the frozen foods together, all
Speaker 1: the cans, all the boxes whatever. So I put the
Speaker 1: two cereals together standing up, and I put the frozen
Speaker 1: foods and I put you always put the potato chips
Speaker 1: of the eggs last, so that those bags end up
Speaker 1: on the top of your your call it right. She
Speaker 1: starts willy nilly packing right, So she puts the frozen
Speaker 1: pizza in the bottom of the bag, then ignores the
Speaker 1: ice cream, grabs the box of cereal, puts that in
Speaker 1: with the frozen So I said, oh, I kind of
Speaker 1: want to keep the frozen food together. So she says,
Speaker 1: all okay, takes the box of cereal out, puts the
Speaker 1: ice cream in right, then makes another bag, grabs one
Speaker 1: box of cereal, then tries to put the Monopoly game
Speaker 1: in with the cereal. They said, can you can you
Speaker 1: put the other boxes cereal and with the cereal And
Speaker 1: she says, you know what, that's that's a good idea
Speaker 1: that the grocery they went next to each other. She scary,
Speaker 1: no joke. She had to reach around the second box
Speaker 1: of cereal to grab the monopoly. Second box was standing
Speaker 1: there like a tower, and she went around it and
Speaker 1: grab the monopoly. She just doesn't know. I mean, she's
Speaker 1: just seeing things. And you know you gotta do it
Speaker 1: by by fragility, like how fragile something is right? And
Speaker 1: and tetris and the rest is a Tetris game, like
Speaker 1: how can I position this stuff and you put the
Speaker 1: boxes together, and the cans and the bottles. He's putting
Speaker 1: cereal boxes and all my frozen pizzas. Come on, it's
Speaker 1: that her cabin. Cabin. I ask you a question. Do
Speaker 1: you play Monopoly? Yes? I do? Okay, I love Monopoly,
Speaker 1: grew up never in my whole life, and unfortunately i'd
Speaker 1: like to be I'm always the shoe or the hat.
Speaker 1: I love the shoe. I used to used to play
Speaker 1: with my father and I think I beat him once.
Speaker 1: I don't I'm gonna get to play with him again
Speaker 1: because he's I don't have him any longer. But that
Speaker 1: was our game, Checkers and Monopoly. That was the only
Speaker 1: board game he wanted to play. That was he played
Speaker 1: it when he was young, and he loved Monopoly. Right now,
Speaker 1: since the days of my dad and me growing up
Speaker 1: with Monopoly and paper money, they've come out with electronic
Speaker 1: Monopoly and everything imaginal Star Wars Monopoly. I've got a
Speaker 1: New York Jets Monopoly, and what when you buy a
Speaker 1: New York Mets Monopoly or Chicago Club's Monopoly or Disney
Speaker 1: World Monopoly. For the most part, I'm sure they'll be exceptions,
Speaker 1: but for the most part. What do they do? They
Speaker 1: just changed changed the property name, and they changed the cards,
Speaker 1: the community chest and check, but it's still it's in
Speaker 1: a boardwalk and park place. It might be like Space
Speaker 1: Mountain and and they changed Oh, and they changed the
Speaker 1: figurines that you used to go around the board. Right,
Speaker 1: but it's monopoly. It's still monopoly. Right. So we were
Speaker 1: a Target on Friday and my daughter says, oh, look
Speaker 1: this Target monopoly and look they give you a little
Speaker 1: shopping cart and a basket. The pieces are you can
Speaker 1: get a little shopping cart. How cute is that? And
Speaker 1: we she and I have not played monopoly in a
Speaker 1: long time. So she's, Daddy, can we get the monopoly?
Speaker 1: I said, come on, man, we're paying I'll tell you
Speaker 1: the price yet, right, So I said, it's it's blah
Speaker 1: blah blah amount of money, which seems like a lot
Speaker 1: to pay for monopoly, and it's just gonna be monopoly.
Speaker 1: But like with red stuff. She's but, but I'll play
Speaker 1: it because it'll be different. Said okay, fine, I'll break down.
Speaker 1: I'll get the monopoly. How much do you think the
Speaker 1: Target Monopoly was a lot of Target? So okay, so
Speaker 1: we get home. We're all excited to play target Monopoly,
Speaker 1: and she says, I want to be the dog. Well,
Speaker 1: the dog has a little but a flat butt, should
Speaker 1: have the bull's eye over its face from the commercials
Speaker 1: have but it's the little dog figurine and it it
Speaker 1: has like it has like three legs in a butt.
Speaker 1: But if you don't place it perfectly, it falls over. Yeah. Right,
Speaker 1: there's a shopping cart, which is fine, and I don't
Speaker 1: know what else the pieces were because she was the dog,
Speaker 1: but shopping The instruction booklet is about six pages long.
Speaker 1: Why because it's not monopoly. It's got the board right,
Speaker 1: the board looks like monopoly. Everything is cleverly, you know, rechanged,
Speaker 1: you know house swears and computers and televisions. So they've
Speaker 1: they've done the usual, but the us of the game
Speaker 1: are completely different. You you get little properties, but you
Speaker 1: don't you can buy a property, right, you can buy
Speaker 1: TV and it's it's tiny, right, and it fits in
Speaker 1: your little basket. It's not like the big properties. There's
Speaker 1: no rent, there's no mortgage, there's no houses, no hotels. Man,
Speaker 1: that's watered down ship. You have to check out from
Speaker 1: free parking where the registers are or go right. Once
Speaker 1: you buy a property, someone else lands on it. They
Speaker 1: can buy it from you, you can buy it twice.
Speaker 1: You have to then save up coupons all the already
Speaker 1: hate this kid, it's a nightmare. I'm not here. The
Speaker 1: point is it's really it's like a monopoly with like, uh,
Speaker 1: it's like you made you Let's say your mom made
Speaker 1: the perfect Marinarow sauce, right, the perfect red sauce, and
Speaker 1: then come along and squirted mustard in it, mixed them
Speaker 1: up and said his mom's sauce, Like what house mustard
Speaker 1: doing it here? Don't worry about it. Awful, so confusing bucket.
Speaker 1: So please if you want to confuse your kids and
Speaker 1: yourself by Target monopoly, by Target monopoly, Um, I haven't
Speaker 1: they returned? Can I return it once it's open on
Speaker 1: the grounds it sucks? Yes, I would do that if
Speaker 1: I were you. Now I have something for you guys
Speaker 1: right after this. Please it's the perfect But yeah, I
Speaker 1: feel like we brought this up on the Big Show
Speaker 1: and Brodie didn't have a chance to comment on it,
Speaker 1: and I think we should. We should do it again.
Speaker 1: That's a pattern. Well, you don't get to talk on
Speaker 1: the Big show. Otherwise, half the stuff that you talk
Speaker 1: on about this podcast, you'd be able to expand on. See,
Speaker 1: I get to speak about things on the big show,
Speaker 1: but I don't get to expand on them. That's that's right,
Speaker 1: because you're an executive producer and I'm only an executive producer.
Speaker 1: That makes no sense, uh I was. Earlier this week,
Speaker 1: we had a little mini conversation about about etiquette with
Speaker 1: photos taking pictures. I wanted to know how you feel
Speaker 1: about being in the middle of a picture and what
Speaker 1: do you do with your arms, because I tend to think,
Speaker 1: and I said this on the air and I'll say
Speaker 1: it again, I think it's selfish if you stand in
Speaker 1: the middle of a picture and you have your arms
Speaker 1: at your sides, or you let everybody put their arms
Speaker 1: around you like you're the middle and you're the center
Speaker 1: of attention, Whereas I think a better look is by
Speaker 1: putting your arm. If you're in the middle, you put
Speaker 1: your left arm around the left person, the right arm
Speaker 1: around the shoulder the right person, and it's kind of
Speaker 1: like chummy. It's more endearing. It's more like we're a
Speaker 1: group taking a picture and it doesn't matter that I'm
Speaker 1: in the middle, it's not It doesn't matter that I'm
Speaker 1: in the middle, because I'm actually we're all together in there. No,
Speaker 1: it's a risky move. Why well, first of all, if
Speaker 1: it's two women, it's doubly risky. But but let's just
Speaker 1: keep it as two people, right. If you do the
Speaker 1: double reach around and then they don't, then you go
Speaker 1: And should I not be doing the double reach round?
Speaker 1: Is this awkward? Did I take? Did I take this
Speaker 1: to be a closer friendship than I thought? Because now
Speaker 1: they're standing there going this guy's arms around me? So
Speaker 1: I do the like when I take picture with celebrities,
Speaker 1: I do the reach around, but I don't touch them.
Speaker 1: So my hand is behind them for the so that
Speaker 1: my arm is somewhere to go, but I don't touch
Speaker 1: them even if they like. Sometimes it's like, especially the
Speaker 1: female celebrities, they'll put their head on my shoulder. They'll
Speaker 1: put their hand on my shoulder where I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: as long as you did it, but I will not
Speaker 1: touch their back like I do. No, he's the move
Speaker 1: I do usually if I don't know the people well enough,
Speaker 1: if they haven't put their arms around me, is I'll
Speaker 1: cross my arms like you know, like like an eight sitcom,
Speaker 1: like hello, I got my arms crossed, but you don't
Speaker 1: do that, you don't, but you and then some people
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of people, um and and
Speaker 1: I guess, um. Actually you ever see the breakfast club
Speaker 1: Envy and DJ Envy and Charlemagne and Angela when they
Speaker 1: take a picture with the celebrity, nobody touches anyone. In fact,
Speaker 1: they all have their different poses, like like like one
Speaker 1: guy will have like have his arms crossed. Uh the end,
Speaker 1: you will have his like left leg up against the wall.
Speaker 1: And not only those are not only radio professional, but
Speaker 1: they look it looks like a magazine cover every time.
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, their TV profession perfectly styled. I'm like,
Speaker 1: why can't we do more of that? I mean, maybe
Speaker 1: that's a solution. Maybe that's why you and I don't
Speaker 1: have a TV shows and uh radio gigs like that
Speaker 1: around morning show. I'm just trying to figure it out
Speaker 1: because when I look at pictures, I judge if I
Speaker 1: see that the person in the middle, or they'll have
Speaker 1: an arm around one person and the other arms limp.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I guess they don't like the person on
Speaker 1: their right enough to take a picture of a boy band,
Speaker 1: Like if you take a picture with Backstreet Backstreet boys,
Speaker 1: everybody puts the arms on everybody. That's their pose. So
Speaker 1: then you're like, you're in the middle of it. That's fine,
Speaker 1: you could be in the middle because it looks like
Speaker 1: they're all like buddying up to you. But and if
Speaker 1: and and if they say like sometimes they're like move
Speaker 1: in a certain way, like so you'll move your arms,
Speaker 1: think you're closer, and then you have to put your
Speaker 1: arms behind them because they're so close. It's like squirshed
Speaker 1: to get in the photo. Like if they're like everybody
Speaker 1: squirsh in. Can't get everybody in the picture. Like with
Speaker 1: a large group, you gotta picture arms around them. I
Speaker 1: still don't touch them, though, do you touch them? I
Speaker 1: do every one of them now celebrities aside. I also
Speaker 1: realized that something else. Yeah, when I'm when I'm taking
Speaker 1: pictures with women versus pictures with men, and this is
Speaker 1: uh this those for our listeners. No, not necessarily. I smile.
Speaker 1: I give big smiles all across the board. Yes, but
Speaker 1: with the guys, I go over to the shoulders and
Speaker 1: with women I go to their waist. I put my
Speaker 1: arms around their waist. In fact, one time, accidentally, and
Speaker 1: this is embarrassing, someone pointed out that I had a
Speaker 1: picture with someone and it was a woman and my
Speaker 1: I guess they were so small, they were so petite
Speaker 1: that my arm went around them and over around, and
Speaker 1: it looked like I was touching their boob from like
Speaker 1: a reach around from the from the back all the
Speaker 1: way back to the front, from the front to the back,
Speaker 1: from the back to the front like that. I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's embarrassing. You can see my fingertips
Speaker 1: under on their underbooth. That's too high up. But no,
Speaker 1: I was. But then again, I'm a tall person though,
Speaker 1: and they're shorter than me, so obviously you gotta angle down.
Speaker 1: And I've never got down. I see I've done. I've
Speaker 1: done the reach around crouch around them. No, I know,
Speaker 1: well you know when I now, I don't think she
Speaker 1: does it anymore. But the three or four times Taylor
Speaker 1: Swift came up to the radio station, if you're a
Speaker 1: Facebook friend of mine, you'd know this. But otherwise you
Speaker 1: wouldn't know this. Uh, And if you're not my we
Speaker 1: didn't go to high school with me or my cousin
Speaker 1: you're not a Facebook friend of mine. I'm sorry. But
Speaker 1: on my in my private galleries, UM, all of my
Speaker 1: pictures would Taylor because she's so tall. I felt really
Speaker 1: short next to her. So I said, hey, can you
Speaker 1: crouch down if you're really short? And I would stand
Speaker 1: on my tippy toes and she would crouch down a
Speaker 1: little bit. And so I have pictures of her like
Speaker 1: standing straight and crouching, standing straight, crouching, So, uh, it's she.
Speaker 1: She was a good sport about it. But by the
Speaker 1: time it was like the third one, She's like, I
Speaker 1: know you want me to crouch down. It was like
Speaker 1: a joke. She remembered me. She's like, oh yeah, and
Speaker 1: she crouched. She crouched down because Taylor is tall. And
Speaker 1: then with the heels, she's really tall, and it makes
Speaker 1: you look really, I'm surprised. I'm surprised that you put
Speaker 1: your arms around her after this is all? This is all. Uh,
Speaker 1: there was thousand eight. There was a very public it
Speaker 1: was a very public lawsuit with a radio d J. Well,
Speaker 1: I know, no, I've never put my I've never I've
Speaker 1: never put my hand on Taylor. I always put my
Speaker 1: arm if it goes I would put it like behind her,
Speaker 1: but like six seven inches away from her back. If
Speaker 1: I feel like I think that they're uncomfortable, I do
Speaker 1: the same thing. I hide it in the back, so
Speaker 1: to the to the person looking at the picture, it
Speaker 1: looks like I have my arm around them, but I'm
Speaker 1: not touching them. I will. I will tell you that,
Speaker 1: I'll make this observation and tell me if you think
Speaker 1: I'm wrong. Sometimes newer artists and artists who haven't had
Speaker 1: a hit in a while are much more touchy feely
Speaker 1: friendly in photographs with people at radio stations. I believe
Speaker 1: it like you got a you got a girl who
Speaker 1: has like unsigned our, she has like her first song,
Speaker 1: her album's coming out and she has like one single.
Speaker 1: A lot of times they'll like they'll do the lean
Speaker 1: on your shoulder thing. They'll put like hand over hand,
Speaker 1: like when I met Dualipa before any of her songs
Speaker 1: were out right, she was an unknown and she like,
Speaker 1: oh she leaned on me right, like she put on
Speaker 1: our hands right, Duelina. They're very good, but like that
Speaker 1: won't happen again. First of all, I think the record
Speaker 1: labels are like hey, you know, And plus I don't
Speaker 1: think after a while, I feel like they're like U
Speaker 1: radio DJs, take pictures with them whatever. But when they're
Speaker 1: when they're starting out, they're very casual. It's all very
Speaker 1: you know whatever. But like boy bands always with the
Speaker 1: arm around, always always right, friendly boy bands just saying hey, um,
Speaker 1: we were talking before about the other David Brody. Right,
Speaker 1: So there's other people with famous names of famous people
Speaker 1: with names of famous people that aren't famous. Well, that
Speaker 1: happened to me. I got, I got. I got tricked
Speaker 1: unintentionally or otherwise. Before you go into that, let me
Speaker 1: just give you one example. My friend, a long time
Speaker 1: friend of mine. His name is Jeffrey Epstein. Yes, always
Speaker 1: met him in Combine be leave it right there, that's
Speaker 1: his real name. And now he's like, don't yeah, that's
Speaker 1: a problem. It's a problem. So I'm listening to the
Speaker 1: Fantasy upball channel on Sirius XM because I'm a hardcore
Speaker 1: fantasy football player and the guy, the guy says, hey,
Speaker 1: good friend of mine is coming up, uh to talk
Speaker 1: about whatever he's talking about. And he says, uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: this guy has made a name for himself in the
Speaker 1: fantasy world. And I got lucky enough to meet him
Speaker 1: years ago. We've stayed friends. I consider myself very fortunate.
Speaker 1: And so my buddy Ryan Reynolds is coming on to
Speaker 1: talk about whatever. So I'm like, wow, this guy knows
Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds. Now a lot of celebrities have fantasy football
Speaker 1: teams and they'll come on. So you thought maybe Ryan
Speaker 1: Raynolds was coming on and give you his picks and
Speaker 1: tell you what he thought, right, and and a lot
Speaker 1: a lot of celebrities, you guys are probably if you've
Speaker 1: ever listened to sports stations, there are there are athletes
Speaker 1: that love fantasy football, or celebrities rather, and they'll come
Speaker 1: on and give their picks and and they'll be in
Speaker 1: leagues and they're like everybody else. So I'm like, who
Speaker 1: doesn't love Ryan Raynolds? This is great. He's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: my buddy, Ryan Reynolds. And so his CAUs goes, how'd
Speaker 1: you get Ryan Reynolds know? Like he's like, I've just
Speaker 1: I met him years ago. Now he's blowing up. He's
Speaker 1: got a new column out that he writes for this website,
Speaker 1: Like Brian Reynolds writes a fantasy football website. This is tremendous.
Speaker 1: So the guy comes on, he's like lady and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds, and he's like, hey, everybody, I wanna talking
Speaker 1: about my picks this week, Like this isn't fucking Ryan Reynolds.
Speaker 1: So apparently this guy is a big deal now in
Speaker 1: fantasy football, and now you gotta listen to his name
Speaker 1: every time, and you're gonna be psyched out every single
Speaker 1: The point was he was making a big deal about
Speaker 1: his buddy Ryan Reynolds, because the guy in the fantasy
Speaker 1: world is worth knowing. I think he did it on purpose,
Speaker 1: just for tuning. He definitely he's like, hey, guys, got
Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds coming up. My friend Ryan Reynolds. Never once
Speaker 1: said hey, same name as the famous guy. He wanted
Speaker 1: you to think it was really him. That was him
Speaker 1: doing little tease and little tune in a little tickli
Speaker 1: your balls with a feather. Right. He didn't say I
Speaker 1: went to college with him. I met him at about
Speaker 1: a thing years ago. No, no, yeah, Now he did
Speaker 1: it on purpose, absolutely, of course. So my friend Jeffrey
Speaker 1: Epstein's coming Jeff Epstein on the next broadcast with the
Speaker 1: Big Brooklyn Boys podcast. See, but Jeffrey one, he's dead right.
Speaker 1: He may have not have hung himself, depending on what
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory you're in. Oh, Adam Levine. Adam Levin coming
Speaker 1: up next next week on the show. My friend, I'm
Speaker 1: an accountant. Well, why I know what Adam Levin? I actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: I can. I'm gonna call him up. I haven't spoken
Speaker 1: to him since middle school, but you know he's he's around,
Speaker 1: Adam Levine. All right, speaking of middle school and Brooklyn,
Speaker 1: and um, are you gonna are we doing something with
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn coming up? Yeah? I mean in the New
Speaker 1: York Comedy Festival. No, no, no, that would be Manhattan.
Speaker 1: I know. That's why I'm trying Brooklyn. I thought we
Speaker 1: were supposed well, they was supposed to do something on
Speaker 1: the rides in Brooklyn. Yeah, we never happened. It never materialized.
Speaker 1: I thought they were gonna save it for fall. But
Speaker 1: maybe not. Maybe that's a dead conversation. We were trying,
Speaker 1: They were trying in the background, will just be honest.
Speaker 1: They were trying to bring the Brooklyn Boys to Brooklyn
Speaker 1: with all y'all listening and all the slices. Although you
Speaker 1: don't say y'all in Brooklyn, you know, we do not.
Speaker 1: But we were we were supposed to do something uh,
Speaker 1: and it just never happened. But so what are we
Speaker 1: doing in Brooklyn? Scary? Well right now? Nothing? Well, so
Speaker 1: I thought you knew something I didn't know. No, I
Speaker 1: thought we were going to do that, but I heard
Speaker 1: that that was still maybe on the table for the fall.
Speaker 1: But I come on, that's what hurt now, your dogs
Speaker 1: howling at the moon? I think we should. Uh, we
Speaker 1: gotta go. We gotta a cruise ship to board, and
Speaker 1: I gotta pack. Can I just I want to just
