Speaker 2: us very teeter.
Speaker 1: Oh check it, check it? How's that? What's up now?
Speaker 2: I mean?
Speaker 1: Should I start over?
Speaker 2: No? This is fine.
Speaker 1: Welcome to bull Chat. Should I play a thing? Undo?
Speaker 1: The button pushed over there? Why you should raise your
Speaker 1: chair a little bit so you don't have to keep
Speaker 1: doing this every time you speak. Raise up the chair
Speaker 1: and welcome to bull Chat. Today's Wednesday, March first. Welcome
Speaker 1: to the IDEs of March. Is that what it's called,
Speaker 1: hides the IDEs of March? So it's funny. I was
Speaker 1: on vacation last week. I was on the cruise ship
Speaker 1: on Norwegian Epic, and I was listening to last week's
Speaker 1: bull Chat. It sure was invigorating.
Speaker 2: Unlike you, I had to work. I worked. I said
Speaker 2: I was going to do it, and then what wound
Speaker 2: up happening was like, oh busy, imis I'll do an
Speaker 2: extra episode one of these days. I just were gonna
Speaker 2: get Yeah, I was gonna do it with Newman and
Speaker 2: Newman movie.
Speaker 1: Newman wanted to do it with him.
Speaker 2: No, Newman, I'm sorry, a Friday episode, Newman, I'll text you.
Speaker 2: I'm going to text Newman Noasis, but I don't forget.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask him when he's available to do a
Speaker 2: Friday episode.
Speaker 1: That would have been epic, just like my cruise all
Speaker 1: Norwegian epic.
Speaker 2: Everybody has been asking me to do. To read your
Speaker 2: caption everyone in your voice.
Speaker 1: You're gonna pull him up. Absolutely. Oh, I'm very excited.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll save that to the end. That's a tease.
Speaker 1: Did you go anywhere last week?
Speaker 2: No? I stayed home, and I have to say a staycation.
Speaker 2: Well it wasn't even a staycation because I was working,
Speaker 2: like I worked the entire week. You didn't work, Yes,
Speaker 2: I did. What did you do well? I don't know
Speaker 2: if you know.
Speaker 1: I managed so many things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have, uh my other podcast that I work on.
Speaker 2: I had to do those, and then I had a
Speaker 2: meeting on Thursday here about a morning show thing that
Speaker 2: we're going to be doing.
Speaker 1: Do I get to go?
Speaker 2: This didn't have to do with a trip as much
Speaker 2: as it did with do I get to.
Speaker 1: Be a part of it?
Speaker 2: I mean not really.
Speaker 1: Why I always get left out of it?
Speaker 2: You're not a client, so you don't need to fill
Speaker 2: out this form, but I was doing that. So yeah,
Speaker 2: I was busy, but it was nice because I was
Speaker 2: home so I got to sleep and just relax and
Speaker 2: like wake up on my own time. I have to say,
Speaker 2: I love waking up on my own time and not
Speaker 2: like if I wanted to get to work at eleven.
Speaker 2: I got to work at eleven and it was crazy.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: I was on vacation last week with my girls on
Speaker 1: the ship, and I never got to sleep in late
Speaker 1: ever because we were always doing something in the morning.
Speaker 1: And I mean, it's fine with me because I'm used
Speaker 1: to getting up at three fifty two am on every
Speaker 1: weekday and so at least I was waking up at
Speaker 1: six thirty or seven, which is sleeping in for me.
Speaker 2: See, that's the thing sleeping in for us is getting
Speaker 2: even an extra hour of sleep. We take it for granted,
Speaker 2: but getting that extra hour changes you as a human.
Speaker 2: When I get to wake up at five thirty sometimes
Speaker 2: because I'm just like, I don't want to go in
Speaker 2: at four thirty, it's it is life changing.
Speaker 1: Have you ever tried to get a fifteen year old
Speaker 1: girl out of bed? I know that sounds a little
Speaker 1: it a little sounds a little weird, I'm not, but
Speaker 1: it's it's not easy.
Speaker 2: I can imagine it really is.
Speaker 1: And' it's like, hey, Ashley, we gotta leave in thirty
Speaker 1: minutes to got it out the door a minute? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: we have to go. We have to go. No, just
Speaker 1: ten minutes.
Speaker 2: Well, she get up for the bus.
Speaker 1: She always makes it somehow, she always makes it out
Speaker 1: the door, six fifty two gone, you know, no matter
Speaker 1: when she wakes up. And I'm very proud of her
Speaker 1: for that. Yeah, I can get it together, but when
Speaker 1: you're on vacation, you really don't want to have to
Speaker 1: get up any specific times.
Speaker 2: See, that's the thing. And this is when it comes
Speaker 2: to vacations. I've realized this. Like I will do a
Speaker 2: day or two where I am more than happy to
Speaker 2: go enjoy. I don't like being idle on vacation. Like
Speaker 2: to me, a tropical vacation where I just go to
Speaker 2: a beach every day doesn't sound fun. Like I want
Speaker 2: to explore, I want to go see things like I
Speaker 2: like that, but I also like doing it on my
Speaker 2: own time, if that makes sense. Like I want action,
Speaker 2: I want fun, but.
Speaker 1: I also want to like never mind.
Speaker 2: I just want to do it on my own time,
Speaker 2: that's it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So we actually traveled with some friends of ours
Speaker 1: who are also like, don't want to sit on the
Speaker 1: beach all day? Yeah, but we did. So it was
Speaker 1: nice because Cooper is also not a full on I
Speaker 1: want to sit on the beach. Your phone is square, yeah, rectangle.
Speaker 2: It's my new phone case.
Speaker 1: Sorry. So, uh, Cooper doesn't like to just sit on
Speaker 1: the beach all day, you know, she likes to do things.
Speaker 1: So luckily we were with friends who took Cooper on
Speaker 1: two days. One of the days it took her on
Speaker 1: a train excursion around Saint Lucia, fun and the next
Speaker 1: oh no, it was at Saint Kitts whatever it was.
Speaker 1: One of them was a mudbath, so Cooper went with
Speaker 1: them in a mud bath. I can't get into mudbaths.
Speaker 1: Something about it just really like freaks me out.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe it's just because it's mud.
Speaker 1: You think it's gonna be like quicksand and you're gonna
Speaker 1: go under.
Speaker 2: No. I just don't like. I never liked face painting
Speaker 2: as a kid. I never liked any of that, so
Speaker 2: to me, it kind of skews me out. But I
Speaker 2: don't want to rub muddle over my face and body.
Speaker 1: It just looks I get. We did that when we
Speaker 1: were in Iceland and Raykovic and you go in the
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I'm old. Whatever the hell is that? Things
Speaker 1: kind of cool because it's like twenty degrees below zero
Speaker 1: outside in this thermal bath, it's like eighty degrees and
Speaker 1: you put this white cream all over your face.
Speaker 2: But I was gonna do that when we went last
Speaker 2: August on to whatever place that is, but I was
Speaker 2: so sleepy, so I didn't go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, here here's my tip for cruisers. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm not a cruiser by any means. Yeah, up until
Speaker 1: three years ago, i'd never been on a cruise because
Speaker 1: I was always like, oh my god, I'm gonna be trapped.
Speaker 1: But it's not like that at all, because you do
Speaker 1: you get off almost every day. Yeah, But my advice
Speaker 1: for you if you cruise, and we'll never have before,
Speaker 1: always book excursions. Yeah, if you want to get off
Speaker 1: the ship, book them. Because there was one day in
Speaker 1: Saint Lucia where we did not book one because there
Speaker 1: was anything available by the time my lazy ass got around,
Speaker 1: you know, to booking stuff. And so that's the day
Speaker 1: that our friends took Cooper to the mud bath, and
Speaker 1: Ashley and I were like, hey, let's just go to
Speaker 1: the beach. And everyone's like, yeah, just get a taxi.
Speaker 1: When pull into port, no problem, get a taxi, you know.
Speaker 1: And so of course everyone once you get there, they're
Speaker 1: all in cahoots, you know. So I'm like, well, which
Speaker 1: beach is the nicest one to go to? Oh? You
Speaker 1: don't want to go to that beach, even though I
Speaker 1: researched that beach, Pigeon Beach, I think it was called
Speaker 1: I don't remember Pigeon Beach. Maybe I would never go
Speaker 1: to a beach called Pitcheon Beach, but it was called
Speaker 1: So they're like, no, no, no, you want to go to
Speaker 1: Rodney Beach, you know. So I was like, okay, that's
Speaker 1: the nicest sand and beautiful. I'm like, okay, let's go,
Speaker 1: you know. So we get into cab. It was I
Speaker 1: think it was forty dollars round trip or whatever it
Speaker 1: was for the two of us. Maybe it was a
Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty minute drive. There was traffic, so it
Speaker 1: was like thirty minutes. So we got there and as
Speaker 1: soon as you get out of the cab, the guy's like,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, come with me, you know, because the cab
Speaker 1: driver knows the girl that's sitting there, and the girl
Speaker 1: gives you to some hands you off to some guy
Speaker 1: that walks you into the beach. Oh yeah, I'm on
Speaker 1: this that the other you know. And he's trying to
Speaker 1: you know, He's like, you want any drugs? And I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: I'm good, you know so and I was thinking of
Speaker 1: you the whole time. No Ganja, you know.
Speaker 2: No girls, so that I can't have it, see the
Speaker 2: wiki to Becky.
Speaker 1: So they walk us way down, walk us way down.
Speaker 1: He's like, okay, the blue chairs with the umbrella, those
Speaker 1: are yours right now. I was like, thanks very much, man,
Speaker 1: I really appreciate it. Now, mind you, this is a
Speaker 1: public beach. Okay, so there's no charge to get on
Speaker 1: this beach, you know. So we get there and I'm
Speaker 1: not a sucker, but I know, and I'm like being
Speaker 1: soft waggled, you know what I mean. And so he's like, okay,
Speaker 1: chairs are ten dollars each, with the umbrella thirty dollars.
Speaker 1: I'm like what I said, I don't need an umbrella.
Speaker 1: I want to be in the beach. I don't need shades.
Speaker 1: He's like, all right, ten dollars and they whipped the
Speaker 1: umbrella out of the ground like all right. So I
Speaker 1: had to give the guy twenty dollars. And the second
Speaker 1: that we sit down, seventeen people come over bracelets, jewelry bracelets, coconuts, donations, gumbo.
Speaker 1: They have a crock pot behind us with it, you know,
Speaker 1: and it looked like complete baby diarrhea. They bring you
Speaker 1: to their friend's beach. You're gonna get sold the whole
Speaker 1: friend's area where they have everything, you know, beers and this,
Speaker 1: that and the other. And it's like, dude, please just
Speaker 1: leave us alone. We just want them to sit there.
Speaker 1: And I hate saying because you know, I once I
Speaker 1: start getting worked up, then I started becoming nasty to
Speaker 1: these people, and I don't want to be like, no, pal,
Speaker 1: we're good. We just chill out, you know. And then
Speaker 1: of course I'm afraid to go in the water because
Speaker 1: my bag is there, and the people are pissed because
Speaker 1: I didn't tip them or buy anything from them. I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is just a this is not a relaxing situation.
Speaker 1: It is my own fault for taking too long to
Speaker 1: book an excursion. So here, I am on Rodney Beach
Speaker 1: and these people are up my ass. And let me
Speaker 1: tell you something. When we're there, the guy like bent
Speaker 1: over when he got pissed off to take the umbrella
Speaker 1: out of the ground. He had a gun in his waistbelt,
Speaker 1: and I was like, okay, I didn't tell Ashton because
Speaker 1: I didn't want her to be scared.
Speaker 2: Excuse me, Taxi, I'd like to go back to the
Speaker 2: ship please.
Speaker 1: I mean the beach itself was nice, but it just
Speaker 1: I didn't like the situation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you felt like you were being That
Speaker 2: happened to me and show. When we were in Morocco,
Speaker 2: we did a tour and on the last day at
Speaker 2: this camp that we stayed at, they they insisted on
Speaker 2: taking us to the Berber village. They were like, we're
Speaker 2: gonna take you to Berber Village. And I had been
Speaker 2: to Morocco once in the past and when they take
Speaker 2: you someplace, hey, buddy, hello, we're recording bull chat. We're bullchat.
Speaker 2: So we went to the village and they were saying
Speaker 2: to us. I said before to Michelle, I said, I
Speaker 2: don't want to go to Berber Village. And I'll tell
Speaker 2: you why. They're gonna sell us carpets because Morocco is
Speaker 2: known for its carpet I have a great story, but
Speaker 2: go on, and we wound up going on the last
Speaker 2: day while we were going to go to the next place,
Speaker 2: and they're like, we're stopping at the Berber village or
Speaker 2: getting Berber pizza.
Speaker 1: Great Berber as in like Burbery.
Speaker 2: No, it's like a certain tribe. Okay, did Berbery come
Speaker 2: from there? No, that's not it.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: So they make these rugs and they show you the
Speaker 2: rug store and they're saying, oh my, oh god, look
Speaker 2: at this rug. Do you know you could get this
Speaker 2: rug for cheap if you buy it here and not
Speaker 2: in like Marrakesh where you're going buy it here. This
Speaker 2: is a real carpet. You want a carpet. For forty
Speaker 2: five minutes, they gave us a carpet demonstration about all
Speaker 2: the different types of carpets and the stories of the
Speaker 2: carpets and the feeling of the carpets, and then at
Speaker 2: the end we were like, we live in six hundred
Speaker 2: square foot apartments. We do not have room for a
Speaker 2: fifty foot carpet to go in our house. And they're like,
Speaker 2: but the quality is so worth it here, and I
Speaker 2: kept saying, no, I don't need a carpet.
Speaker 1: Because of your ancestry where you're thinking that maybe they
Speaker 1: were Sars carpets.
Speaker 2: Come on, please get out of here, idiot. Needless to say,
Speaker 2: I didn't buy a carpet. Michelle didn't buy a carpet.
Speaker 2: And then we awkwardly ate pizza sitting and the guy
Speaker 2: was staring at us like, you know you could get
Speaker 2: a carpet.
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's so weird. And it leads me
Speaker 1: to this. When we were in curisow at that stop
Speaker 1: so they drop you off before can I just yeah,
Speaker 1: of course, I just want to why did you have
Speaker 1: my picture? Oh? Here we go? Are you gonna do
Speaker 1: the Curoso?
Speaker 2: Was it? Where's that one?
Speaker 1: Kisaw? Was the second day?
Speaker 2: Second day? So? No?
Speaker 1: Maybe it was the first day.
Speaker 2: That's San Juan Juan?
Speaker 1: That was it? That was it? In front of the
Speaker 1: NCL thing was cirousaw this one? Unless maybe that was
Speaker 1: the c day.
Speaker 2: No, that's when you had a great day at the casino.
Speaker 2: Something I really love about cruise like is that we
Speaker 2: get to stop at a bunch of different places rather
Speaker 2: than just flying to one today Carousel, spent the day
Speaker 2: with our good friends, went snarkling on a beautiful beach,
Speaker 2: did some shopping a doubt, led back to the ship
Speaker 2: for the show and dinner at Maderno. So much meat
Speaker 2: hashtag cruise Norwegian hashtag noldigil epic.
Speaker 1: All right, let's go back to the in town shopping.
Speaker 1: All right, So the port, they drop you off at
Speaker 1: the port, and of course is you know you're right
Speaker 1: in this little First of all, they have the coolest thing.
Speaker 1: It was, it was the strangest thing.
Speaker 2: So you wait, can we just before Yeah, we are
Speaker 2: about to get to that point where we should say
Speaker 2: we'll tell you the story of Cursal.
Speaker 1: Right after this dun dun dun, dun, dunt dunt, and
Speaker 1: we're back. So we're never gonna have the commercial break
Speaker 1: song ever again. Okaz, I'm gonna get the box. Okay,
Speaker 1: so stupid man box comes back. So anyway and curresw
Speaker 1: how cool is this? So you get off? Shut up.
Speaker 2: The whole time, I just I can't not look at
Speaker 2: like a picture of you and not picture that voice.
Speaker 2: So the whole time I saw pictures of you, I
Speaker 2: just kept like imagining you at the place as being like, well,
Speaker 2: isn't this a quaint little down curesal.
Speaker 1: Walking around with a microphone.
Speaker 2: The weather here is wonderful.
Speaker 1: So here's the cool thing. This is the first cool thing.
Speaker 1: And then I'll tell you the weird thing. So they
Speaker 1: drop you off at the port. And as you're walking
Speaker 1: like toward town, it's like a ten or fifteen minute walk.
Speaker 1: There's little vendors and stuff like that, and great music
Speaker 1: and food and trucks and stuff like that. So and
Speaker 1: then you walk over the bridge. You know, right before
Speaker 1: you get to the bridge, you see all those like
Speaker 1: beautiful colored houses in the background. Oh yeah, famous picture.
Speaker 1: So that's right at the bridge. So you start walking
Speaker 1: over the bridge. Yeah, and it's it's weird because you
Speaker 1: can get trapped. I didn't realize this. Just as we
Speaker 1: got off the bridge, all of a sudden, we hear
Speaker 1: a bell. It's like and everyone's like, what's going on.
Speaker 1: We have no idea what's going on? And then the
Speaker 1: gates at the ends of the bridge close, So you're
Speaker 1: trapped on the bridge and you can't get off. You're like,
Speaker 1: what's going on?
Speaker 2: What would happen?
Speaker 1: Okay, So instead of a drawbridge, you know, a drawbridge
Speaker 1: goes up to let boat traffic go. No, this bridge
Speaker 1: just moves to the side like an engine starts, Like
Speaker 1: on a go kart, an engine starts and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, the bridge just starts going sideways, or it
Speaker 1: just moves over a little bit, so like a boat
Speaker 1: can pass through, because it's not really elevated at all.
Speaker 1: It just sits on the water. So when a boat
Speaker 1: or a ship or anything has to go through, it
Speaker 1: just moves. And you're standing on it and you're like,
Speaker 1: what is happening right now? And the kids, of course
Speaker 1: wanted to be back on it. They wanted to be
Speaker 1: We want that ride, you know, like it's on a ride.
Speaker 1: The bridge is moving. It was the Cooper's like, walk
Speaker 1: slow because she wanted to get stuck in the middle.
Speaker 1: But it was the weirdest thing. So that was why, No,
Speaker 1: unfortunately not that was weird thing number one. So weird
Speaker 1: thing number two is then you're in like in town
Speaker 1: and the village where all the bars and restaurants and
Speaker 1: shops and all the beautiful things are whatever. So we're
Speaker 1: walking around and you know, I was so excited because
Speaker 1: there was a sketcher store there, you know, and so
Speaker 1: we walk a little further up, and the friends that
Speaker 1: we were with, she says, I want to go into
Speaker 1: this store. I'm like, what it's called mister Tablecloth. Okay.
Speaker 1: So in the middle of all the touristy stuff and
Speaker 1: the drinks and everything, and the food and the conk
Speaker 1: and the whole nine yards, there's a store called mister
Speaker 1: Tablecloth and it's literally like a fancy tablecloth store. Bizarro,
Speaker 1: Why is there a fancy tablecloth store in the middle
Speaker 1: of tourist country. You know, there's t shirt shops, buy magnets,
Speaker 1: all this, that and the other. And then you walk
Speaker 1: in there and first of all, it's beautiful, air conditioned.
Speaker 1: So I was like, okay, it feels nice, but it
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense to me. And let me tell
Speaker 1: you something. The store was busy. There was a lot
Speaker 1: of people in Mister Tablecloth and they were all buying shit.
Speaker 1: People were spending hundreds of dollars in the tablecloth store,
Speaker 1: and curras out that I were with it spent like
Speaker 1: eight hundred bucks on table runners and tablecloths.
Speaker 2: Well, maybe that's their Burper village, But what do you
Speaker 2: just specialize in tablecloths? Maybe at Cirousol.
Speaker 1: No there was one store.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's what they're known for.
Speaker 1: Let me google this cairousel and table you have to
Speaker 1: have a little symbol underneath the sea. It's like a thing,
Speaker 1: I know, whatever that that's called. But I was I
Speaker 1: was fascinated yet disturbed by mister tablecloth. I didn't understand
Speaker 1: what it was doing there, and I could not understand
Speaker 1: why it was so busy and why there was a
Speaker 1: line to check out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are no, it's like a linen store. They're
Speaker 2: a known thing. Their Instagram is big too, huh I
Speaker 2: I looking up beautiful that table cloths?
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, they were beautiful tablecloths. But it just didn't
Speaker 1: make sense to me, that's all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, hmm. Well, I mean.
Speaker 1: That's like I don't know, going walking through Times Square
Speaker 1: there being like a volcanic rock store, Like it doesn't
Speaker 1: make any sense.
Speaker 2: Well it could, because again, if that's what they're known for, like.
Speaker 1: But not there, why go to the tablecloth areas to
Speaker 1: tablecloth village like off the trail?
Speaker 2: Well why are rugs big in like this in Morocco
Speaker 2: of all places where it's really.
Speaker 1: Worn right, But there were lots of places selling rugs,
Speaker 1: so that was a thing here. There was just like
Speaker 1: this one random store.
Speaker 2: Nobody else. There was nobody else in the place. There
Speaker 2: are no other tablecloth stores. Okay, well then that is weird.
Speaker 1: It was very strange.
Speaker 2: It was just it's like the Raising Canes that's never
Speaker 2: coming to Times Square. They keep saying it's coming, but
Speaker 2: it's been under construction since the pandemic.
Speaker 1: What's raising canes?
Speaker 2: You've never been to Raising Canes? I can't really say
Speaker 2: it like sine. I can't say it like that because
Speaker 2: I've only ever been once with Gandhi. But they're a
Speaker 2: fried chicken places. But they're not for their They give
Speaker 2: you Texas toasts, that's like their thing. And they have
Speaker 2: the cane sauce, which is good. It's decl is it
Speaker 2: c ai n or c aaa and e s Raising canes.
Speaker 2: They're building one in Times Square, but it's been like
Speaker 2: the Jersey City Whole Foods that has been under construction
Speaker 2: since twenty eighteen. Yeah, I don't know how long it
Speaker 2: takes to build a freaking Whole Foods, but it's been
Speaker 2: five freaking years.
Speaker 1: We go. We have the Amazon Fresh store that they've
Speaker 1: been building since like twenty nineteen. I don't know, I
Speaker 1: really want by my parents.
Speaker 2: I'm so excited to be able to go to that,
Speaker 2: but everything's gonna get charged to my credit card, so
Speaker 2: I really have to figure out how I'm gonna split
Speaker 2: my parents off.
Speaker 1: Miamaz Tanya, it's just a it's just a gimmick. I
Speaker 1: can't see people shopping there all the time. It's for
Speaker 1: someone to say, haha, beep, beep beep, this is so cool.
Speaker 1: Haha beep beep, and then that's it. There's no savings there.
Speaker 1: It's just kind it's just.
Speaker 2: Haha, beep beep, ha ha bepepep.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the old people aren't gonna go there. My
Speaker 1: dad's be like, what I don't understand.
Speaker 2: I have Amazon, I brought my laptop.
Speaker 1: Can I get it?
Speaker 2: Is this what I'm supposed to do?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Your dad, I remember trying to get his keyboard hooked up.
Speaker 2: It's the green wire. God, this wire it usually works.
Speaker 2: I know you have to plug it into this one. No,
Speaker 2: I never plug it into that one.
Speaker 1: You have no idea. So he he's a court stenographer
Speaker 1: and he's been working from home all COVID and now
Speaker 1: he still works from home because that's the only way
Speaker 1: he'll work now. And he'll call me or he'll text me.

Speaker 2: And he's got an old computer too.
Speaker 1: He just got a new one, just upgraded it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but still the zoom thing is still he doesn't get
Speaker 1: you know, So why is there a picture of my
Speaker 1: car on there? You know? When I'm not talking, I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: that's your back screen. Yeah, once you once you log on,
Speaker 1: that's your profile picture. Right then then it'll start. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And he like calls me over while he's in the
Speaker 1: middle of the case, like because a court and a
Speaker 1: whole thing and and the attorneys and he's, you know,
Speaker 1: doing his thing, and he's like what And I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: I don't want to be in the screen. You know.
Speaker 1: He doesn't like, he doesn't he doesn't get it. But
Speaker 1: it's it's it's very it's just it's very tough with
Speaker 1: old people and technology. Look, I'm getting there. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I have to ask my kids, Hey, how do you
Speaker 1: change that? I got to ask you, ude, how do
Speaker 1: I change my background on this thing? And like boo boo,

Speaker 1: Okay, okay, By the way, I got to use my

Speaker 1: Why it was great?
Speaker 2: Olah, miamo Scott. Don't they a stall applia?
Speaker 1: Yeah? And he took us to the PLI I can't
Speaker 1: it was great.
Speaker 2: You mean the U is didn't that a US territory?
Speaker 1: It sure is. But the official language is Spanish there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you know English is the second language there. And
Speaker 1: if you look under that newspaper right there, you'll see
Speaker 1: what I brought back from Puerto Rico that we're going
Speaker 1: to talk under the newspaper, friend, that we're going to
Speaker 1: talk about on Monday. Check it out complete chocolate flavored
Speaker 1: Telloggs Complete. They had a bunch of different flavors. That
Speaker 1: was coconut, there was a couple other words.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie. The chocolate looks like poop straight
Speaker 2: from a butt.
Speaker 1: Where else where else would it come from?
Speaker 2: Look at that the way the chocolate is that this
Speaker 2: is not appetizing.
Speaker 1: I think I'm going to get into pudding again. I really,
Speaker 1: that's just reminded me what a big I'm a big
Speaker 1: pudding fan. What I feel like your oldification is getting
Speaker 1: like pudding is not for old men. Oh pudding is
Speaker 1: an old person. For Why when I was kids, we
Speaker 1: had putting pops.
Speaker 2: But Carl, I don't have but paint. Then, couldn't you
Speaker 2: get me my porty?
Speaker 1: Okay? What would the kid version be with teeth? I mean,
Speaker 1: I like pudding, it's just they don't drink any drinks
Speaker 1: anymore because you don't need teeth to drink. I don't understand.
Speaker 1: I made no sense.
Speaker 2: Just putting is one of those foods that's an all
Speaker 2: retirement home.
Speaker 1: Well, I had lots of jello on the ship.
Speaker 2: I'm sure you did.
Speaker 1: Cube it was cubed.
Speaker 2: I had Buddy a cube jello on board the weeds
Speaker 2: and epic stop.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I you know. My favorite pudding flavor is
Speaker 1: what pistachio, Oh jello pudding, instant pistachio.
Speaker 2: I love pistachio. Pistachio ice cream is amazing. Pistachio I
Speaker 2: just but so so Stashio coffee.
Speaker 1: Remember when, yes, now Starbucks? Can we talk about Starbucks
Speaker 1: for a damn second, Like, I don't know what they did.
Speaker 2: But I went to Starbucks for the first time in
Speaker 2: like three years the other day three years. I don't
Speaker 2: go to Duncan.
Speaker 1: Is my choice a giant law? You've done.
Speaker 2: My friend Kam is calling, come on, she can wait
Speaker 2: because there's a water main break in Hoboke.
Speaker 1: But there always is, Okay. So if you don't know
Speaker 1: the area here where we live, New York and New
Speaker 1: Jersey are very close. New York City right through the
Speaker 1: tunnel is Hoboken. Right through the other tunnel is Jersey City.
Speaker 1: So it's it's very very close New York New Jersey
Speaker 1: just bordered. We're on the border sides. And Hoboken is
Speaker 1: a beautiful, cool city. Young people live there. I lived
Speaker 1: there for like eight or nine years or something like that.
Speaker 1: But it's a very very old city and the infrastructure
Speaker 1: is very very old, and there are constantly water main
Speaker 1: breaks because the pipes are well over one hundred years old.
Speaker 1: So like the slightest vibration from some construction down the
Speaker 1: street will burst one of these giant water mains from
Speaker 1: you know, eighteen ninety eight, and so there's always it's
Speaker 1: basically just they just patch them, you know, they replaced
Speaker 1: that one section and that's it. For them to completely
Speaker 1: redo all the water pipes and water mains and the
Speaker 1: entire city is just an impossibility. So they have to
Speaker 1: fix them as they break. But the problem is when
Speaker 1: they do break, it gushes a lot of water. And
Speaker 1: the way that Hoboken is is, you know, the back
Speaker 1: of the city is kind of it's down. It's I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's below sea level, but it's like down.
Speaker 1: So all the water, even when it rains, will flood
Speaker 1: the back of the city, and especially when there's a
Speaker 1: water main break. It is an effing nightmare. I lived there,
Speaker 1: like I said, probably in the early two thousands, and
Speaker 1: I'll never forget. There was a huge, huge rainstorm and
Speaker 1: we had to go watch our friend's cat, you know, Cubby.
Speaker 1: He had lived in Hoboken the way back the end
Speaker 1: of it, like down on Monroe Street, you know, the
Speaker 1: way back, and he was away and we had to
Speaker 1: go feed his cat. So I just walked in on
Speaker 1: the most random part No, and so there was a
Speaker 1: huge rainstorm. Yeah, and you know how the back of
Speaker 1: Hoboken floods. I mean, all you need is a light
Speaker 1: rain and as it floods. So we were walking down,
Speaker 1: you know, second toward the back of Hoboken, and all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the water gets really deep and we
Speaker 1: had Boomer with us, the dog Boomer. You know, it
Speaker 1: was so deep that he started swimming.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: So we were walking and Boomer was doing the doggy
Speaker 1: paddle and we finally got the Kupey's apartment and the
Speaker 1: whole ground level was flooded, but we were able to
Speaker 1: get up and feed his cat. Wow. Yeah. So I
Speaker 1: was just telling them how how volatile the old pipes
Speaker 1: and Hoboken are because they're century old.
Speaker 2: Well, my friend Michelle and her sister Kim, they live
Speaker 2: in Hoboken and a water main break happened yesterday. So
Speaker 2: they had yesterday and.
Speaker 1: When they do, it's brown.
Speaker 2: But today they said it was going to be back
Speaker 2: in I think ten to twelve hours. It's been ten
Speaker 2: to twelve hours and now they're like soon ten.
Speaker 1: To twelve days if they're lucky. Seriously, Well, I mean
Speaker 1: they take a long time. Oh god, that was it
Speaker 1: the whole city that's out?
Speaker 2: Or is it just that bad? So our friend Veronica,
Speaker 2: who also lives in Hoboken, was like, do I still
Speaker 2: have water?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: Did you watch that show? No? Exactly, so calmed down Toots. So, uh,
Speaker 2: she had water yesterday, but then she said this morning
Speaker 2: she was like, well, the water is starting to do
Speaker 2: the like the thing, yes, where it starts sputtering out.
Speaker 1: Yes, that happened to me a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So then it's now out completely. So I think
Speaker 2: all Hoboken is gonna be without water.
Speaker 1: So we we had to shut the hot water heater
Speaker 1: off for a minute because it was leaking and they
Speaker 1: were over fixing it and I forgot when you turn
Speaker 1: it back on, Yeah, the hot water is so I was, well,
Speaker 1: I was at the kitchen sink and I turned it
Speaker 1: on and I came off for a second and then
Speaker 1: it started going to it started jerking, you know, and
Speaker 1: I went because it scared me. I didn't know what
Speaker 1: was happening after the pipe was exploding or something, and
Speaker 1: it was like it just it has a spasm for
Speaker 1: a little bit and then it turns brown and then
Speaker 1: it goes back to normal.
Speaker 2: Well, when after COVID, the first time I went back
Speaker 2: to my apartment after like two three months with my
Speaker 2: parents during COVID, Yeah, I remember going back and turning
Speaker 2: the water on and it just wouldn't turn on, like
Speaker 2: the pipes frozen. No, it was June.
Speaker 1: Oh, I didn't oltho. I didn't hear that part. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So by the time I got back, I and all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, I left it on for a solid
Speaker 2: like fifteen minutes and then it just went it just
Speaker 2: this brown water. Everyone's nasty.
Speaker 1: My favorite part is whenever there's a water outage or
Speaker 1: something's wrong with the pipes or whatever, and they say
Speaker 1: that you could see brown water. Oh, you always see
Speaker 1: brown say, but it's safe.
Speaker 2: I'm not drinking brown water.
Speaker 1: Right, No, gross, that's sediment from the bottom of it exactly.
Speaker 1: So all right, you're done.
Speaker 2: I'm done.
Speaker 1: You have to go. Yeah, pudding, so no, but you
Speaker 1: know where it's the best, So I have to go.
Speaker 1: I know it sounds gross, but when they make it
Speaker 1: at a diner, yeah, and it sits for a little bit,
Speaker 1: Oh god, next day, please it has no please, please,
Speaker 1: please please?
Speaker 2: What the coating?
Speaker 1: Yes, like a film pudding film, No, I hate the
Speaker 1: pudding used to actually sell putting what do they call it?
Speaker 1: Putting top? Please? What do they call it? It's called
Speaker 1: something something, damn it. I can't think. But there was
Speaker 1: a there was, like, you know, like Betty Crocker or
Speaker 1: something would sell putting tops. No, and it would be
Speaker 1: like a thin thing on two pieces of plasta to
Speaker 1: open it up and you would just eat the pudding tops.
Speaker 2: So gross.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't like that. Okay, it's delicious.
Speaker 2: I just I don't know something about it feels just
Speaker 2: old and congealed, and I just don't think it's good.
Speaker 1: Well, there's certain foods. As they get a little bit older,
Speaker 1: they're better, and that's one of them.
Speaker 2: Ketchup like with all the disgusting, crusty ketchup on the top.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is kind of gatt As you're squeezing at
Speaker 1: the heart, chunk falls in. Please, I hate it.
