Bella had been very sick 58 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: for a long time. At Bella my dog. Uh, we 59 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: talked about bell Bella would sit in the studio during 60 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: COVID and sit next to me while I did the show. 61 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: That was the studio audience was my dog, Bella and 62 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: love bell. Bella just got old and things happened, and 63 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 1: she just had doggy dyslexia and things like dementia, I 64 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: should dementia, and so she had problems. 65 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 3: And I was like, when did she write a paper 66 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 3: for you? 67 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: Well, you know, she'd write the monologues. But anyway, so 68 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: we we had to do the adult thing, do the 69 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: right thing, and and send Bella off to the Great 70 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: Kennel in the sky and so we were bummed out 71 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: and depressed and all that. And because Bella had been 72 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: with us a long time, we loved Bella Bella. There's 73 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: some famous stories Bella running away on the fourth of 74 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: July as I was leaving to go to the radio 75 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: station years ago. 76 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: I remember that one. 77 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, Bella ran I chased after she ran through somebody's backyard. 78 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: I told my wife, Bella's gone. I gotta go to work. 79 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: She's gone. But we were able to get her back 80 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: and then got eaten by a coyote. What that was? 81 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: That was crazy. That was in the middle of the night, 82 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: went out to go to the bathroom, go to check 83 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 1: on her, and she's got a big piece of her 84 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: shock bitten out of her from a coyote, which I 85 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: guess spit her out. Didn't didn't like to taste, Yea. 86 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: But Bella finally checked out and so we sent her away. 87 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: And but we we would like to make the formal announcement, Danny, 88 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: that the next generation in the Malor Mansion has arrived 89 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: here as double your Pleasure, Double your Fun. There was 90 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: this great debate about what to do. Do we get 91 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: a dop ganger of Bella? Do we recreate the Bella 92 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: magic like what do we do? Like, which direction do 93 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: we go? And so we were looking at Shitsuo's and 94 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: we were just like, you know, we wanted to get 95 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: a rescue type dog situation. Want to buy a brand 96 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: spanking new dog. I thought we'd give a dog a 97 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: new life, second opportunity. Why not. So we were looking around, 98 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: scouring the interweb, and then we started looking at some 99 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,239 Speaker 1: other dogs just to kind of see what was out there. 100 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: And we were debating which direction to go. I was like, well, 101 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: I don't want a dog that barks. They can't have 102 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: a barking dog. So that's a problem because I do 103 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: the show from the home studio, so that's an issue. 104 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 1: So we were going back and forth and trying to 105 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: figure out what. 106 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 5: We wanted to do, and then we found the dog, 107 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 5: the dog which we picked up and can now make 108 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 5: the formal announcement. 109 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, the robot dog from the Jetsons. 110 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: Is one hundred percent correct, Danny, We actually got a 111 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: robot dog. It's not we don't have to feed it, 112 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't piss, it doesn't shit, it's wonderful. No, we 113 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: have picked up our dog, Moxie, who now Moxie you're 114 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: probably wonder what kind of dog is that? What kind 115 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: of dog? This is the dog that I have wanted 116 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: my entire life, but I have never never gone out 117 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: and gotten I've had a lot of different dogs since 118 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: I was a kid. My mom always had dogs at 119 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: the house when were growing up, and from my little 120 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: dog Oliver when I was a kid, all the way 121 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: up through all the different dogs we've had, and then 122 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 1: as an adult, I've always not always. When I was 123 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: a bachelor, I did not have a dog, but I 124 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: kind of thought I did because my mom. I visit 125 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: my mom all the time. She had dogs, so I 126 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: kind of consider that like my dog. But the dog 127 00:06:52,360 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: we have now is a wrinkly faced, overweight but muscular bulldog, 128 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: an English bulldog, and the only person that knows outside 129 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: of the family Danny, is Karen k. I reached out 130 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: to kk Now, if you're new to the show, I 131 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: haven't listen that long Karen Kay. I did the show 132 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: with Karen k for a years. She was she was 133 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: with Fox Sports Radio, and I've known Keren a long 134 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: time and. 135 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 3: She used to bring her two big bruisers into the 136 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 3: studio with her. 137 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, Karen always had bulldogs and she loved the bulldogs. 138 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: And I loved looking at the bulldogs and admired the bulldogs, 139 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: but I never had a bulldog, and so I wanted 140 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: her to know before anybody. I was like, Karen, I 141 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: got this bulldog and it's a girly dog named Moxie. 142 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: And loved the dog, absolutely loved the dog. The dog's great, 143 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: But there are some things about bulldogs that are unlike 144 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: any other dog that I've had, and I think you 145 00:07:54,200 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: probably know what those are, Danny, But oh yeah, I 146 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: have named Moxie Old Faithful. And the reason I have 147 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: named Moxie old Faithful is because around every twenty minutes 148 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: she just lets it rip with flatulets. There's a lot 149 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: of even when she's sleeping, she's just farting. And these 150 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: She's bulldogs are about fifty pounds or whatever, give or take, 151 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: and so yeah, it's a decent sized fart and the 152 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: smell I have to leave a fan on. 153 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 3: Oh they are known as fart machines. 154 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but they're so damn cute. There's no way to 155 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: take a bad picture. I'll put some photos up of 156 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: Moxie today. And I was studying the English bulldog. I 157 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: was curious, what's the history of linguist bulldog and all 158 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: this stuff? And I did not know. I did not 159 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: realize that the origins they were bred to fight bulls. 160 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: How crazy is that they were? It was bull baiting. 161 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,839 Speaker 1: It was a blood sport in the UK goes back 162 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: to the twelve hundreds and it was only banned in 163 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: the eighteen thirties, so for six hundred plus years bulldogs 164 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: were specifically bred to have a violent encounter. They would 165 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: they would kind of creep up low to the ground, 166 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: and the way it works from what I read online, 167 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: as I understand it, they would bite the bull or 168 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: sometimes bears or horses nose and then would hold on 169 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: for dear life. They just grab a hold and you know, 170 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 1: they'd be thrown in the air by the bull or 171 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: the bear or the horse or whatever, and a lot 172 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: of a lot of the animals suffered big time injury. 173 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: Even humans at this would die because the bull would 174 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: go flying into the crowd of spectators. And that, you know, 175 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: that's a blood sport. So that's I had no idea 176 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: that was did you eat? No, I had no idea 177 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: that was a sport. 178 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 3: I'd no, no, I didn't know that either. 179 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but Maxie does love playing fetch. That must be 180 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: in her genetics from back to the you know, twelve 181 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: hundreds where she just can't get enough of it. And 182 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: she does like to latch onto things and not let go, 183 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: which is a slight problem sometimes. 184 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 3: But did you see photos or meet her parents? Do 185 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 3: you know how large she will get? 186 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: Well, she is a rescue, so it's rare to get 187 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: an English bulldog and a rescue. She had been breeding, 188 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 1: she'd been used for breeding and then she was she's 189 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 1: about four years old. Now. The thing that kind of 190 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: scares me a little bit, Danny, is bulldogs don't live 191 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: that long. Like they only almost been there, like eight 192 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: to ten years, So she's not gonna be around that long. 193 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: We know that going in. But she's a great dog 194 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: and it's been really cool, and she's kind of getting 195 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 1: potty trained. She had lost her way potty training wise 196 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But so far we've had her 197 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: for a little bit. I wanted to make sure everything 198 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: was good before we made the announcement, and so she's great. 199 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: I get up in the afternoon, I'll take Moxie out 200 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: to get busy and go to the bathroom and all that, 201 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: and then she'll lay down next to me. I've got 202 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: my laptop up and I'm getting ready for the show, 203 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 1: and she'll are watching games or whatever. She'll just lay down, 204 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: just fart every twenty five minutes or thirty minutes or whatever, 205 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: like old faithful and no problem, just slobber all over 206 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: the place and then congratulations.

We also picked up This is 209 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: a desert runaway dog, a buddy my right hand man, 210 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: found out out in the desert roaming around the desert. 211 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: And this dog, which is also now part of the 212 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: Malor Mansion, named Luigi, that is a we had a 213 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: little test done, Danny. It is a pug mixed with 214 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: a French bulldog. Oh okay, they call that a frog 215 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: bello so legendary. You had to replace her with two 216 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: different dogs exactly. Well, we were only planning one, but 217 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: we ended up with two. But this is a French 218 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: bulldog pug mix, which I didn't even know was a thing. 219 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: It looks like a pug, but it's a lot bigger 220 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: than a pug because it's got the French bulldog in 221 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: it's called a frog and I didn't even know what 222 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: that was.

Now, 293 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 4: when we told this to the guy who was wheeling 294 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 4: the big mattress on one of those flat carts, he 295 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 4: looked at us and he said, that's the most costco 296 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 4: thing I've heard all day. 297 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's that's about right. And that reminds me 298 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: of I think his listener, Blake, who listens to this podcast. 299 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: I hope he's hearing this. One Blake in Arkansas who 300 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: he's the guy Danny that opened up the Amazon Clearance 301 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: store where they'd buy trucks of returned items to Amazon 302 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: and sell them for like ten bush. 303 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 3: That's right. 304 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, So he moved into the mattress space. He moved 305 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: into the mattress space a while back, and he told 306 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: me that there's so much money in mattresses. He said 307 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: it should be illegal, is what he said. He said 308 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: that the mattress warehouse places will buy wholesale mattresses for 309 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: I think he said one hundred or two hundred dollars 310 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: per mattress and then sell them for five six, seven, eight, whatever, 311 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: it might be one thousand dollars a mattress. And so 312 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, he's like this is this is 313 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: crazy because us commoners, Dan, he can't pay one hundred 314 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,719 Speaker 1: bucks for a mattress, right, we have to buy it 315 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: at the price which is five hundred plus or whatever 316 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: or more for the mattress. But I think that makes 317 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: sense because the most famous person to sell mattresses is 318 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,239 Speaker 1: that guy in Houston, Mattress Mac. He's the guy that 319 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: makes the multimillion dollar bets every year. 320 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 3: And oh he's a he is loaded. 321 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's worth millions and millions from selling mattresses. And 322 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: now we know how he is worth millions and millions 323 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: selling mattresses because of that. But yeah, that guy Blake. 324 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: Maybe Blake can send us an email let us know 325 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: more about how the mattress mattress hustle works. But is 326 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: it a good mattress?

And the good thing about Costco 337 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: is if you don't like it, you can always take 338 00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: it back. 339 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 4: Do you under stand what you just said? Was her 340 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 4: final selling point to me. Aha, She was trying to 341 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 4: convince me to buy said mattress. This is the place 342 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 4: to get one, because if we don't like how. 343 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 3: It feels, we could just bring it right back. 344 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, which will be very easy to load that into 345 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: the car and just drive it on over to the Costco. 346 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 1: That will not be an inconvenience at all. You will 347 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: not be back out putting that in the car. And 348 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: it's much easier, of course, to put a thing like 349 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: that in the car after you've already taken it out 350 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: and laid it down on the bed and let it 351 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: air out and all that stuff. 352 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 4: Right, you're right about returning it because it's not a 353 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 4: good sign that it's been sitting in the box in 354 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 4: her car. 355 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 3: For a week. 356 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: Oh, it's been in the car. You just left it 357 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: in the car. 358 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's in the box in the car for a 359 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 3: week now. 360 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: Huh. Interesting. You know, we'll have a follow up next week. 361 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: We'll have our big Super Bowl weekend next weekend on 362 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: the fifth hour and more on that. I guess we 363 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: can mention that right now. Right the plan is weather permitting, 364 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: we should have fresh podcast. The podcast on Friday will 365 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: be up a little bit later next week because we'll 366 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: be at Radio Row. I'll be hanging out. You'll be 367 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: there all week, but I'll be hanging out with you. Yeah, 368 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: for Friday, I'll be in Vegas at the Radio Row 369 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: thing doing some interviews. Last year we had Emmett Smith 370 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: on and who is it, the Green Bay Packers guy, 371 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: I forget his name? 372 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 3: Watson? 373 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he was there with us. 374 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 3: So we had Christian Watson. 375 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, he had a great, great year with Aaron Rodgers 376 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: that year. 377 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 3: D Watt. 378 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: I didn't have his great a year this year, but 379 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: that's fine. He was injured some and whatnot. And so 380 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: we'll be there time now for the word of the week. 381 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: The word of the week, The word. 382 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 3: Of the week. 383 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 1: The word is sarcasm something that we dabble in quite 384 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: a bit. Sarcasm, that great word, right, it means obviously 385 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: sharply ironical, taunt or whatever. But did you know the 386 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: word In the sixteenth century, the definition was violence. That's right. Sarcasm, 387 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: which originally comes from the Greek word which of a 388 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: similar sound to it. It means to rend, tear away, 389 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: or rip apart flesh was the original meaning of sarcasm, 390 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 1: so slightly violent. And it was decided at some point, 391 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: at some point along the way, that a verbal attack 392 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 1: was a better ends to a mean than to make 393 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,479 Speaker 1: a point, rather than rip apart flesh and whatnot, And 394 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: so that is where it turned into sarcasm. It goes 395 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: back to the sixteenth century, the fifteen seventies biting, taunting, 396 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: and then it became a satirical thing over the course 397 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 1: of time to kind of mock and jest and whatnot. 398 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 1: But that's the current meaning. But back in the late 399 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 1: fifteen hundreds early sixteen hundreds, the word sarcasm originally again 400 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: tearing away or ripping apart the flesh, but now it's 401 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: a metaphorical tearing away and ripping apart of the flesh. 402 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: In the the modern, modern perspective. I wanted to get quickly. 403 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: We're not gonna do too much. Pop goes the culture, 404 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 1: but we'll have Ohio, I'll go ahead, Ohio, I'll do 405 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: your thing, job job, all right, thanks, Ohio. So here's 406 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: Danny Pop goes the culture. And since you brought this 407 00:22:54,000 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 1: story up with Costco, did you see the TikTok who 408 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: went viral this week for returning a sofa to Costco 409 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 1: that was two years old. 410 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 4: No, but that does not surprise me, as my older 411 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 4: brother has returned to TV that was three years old. 412 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's this great debate on the internet. So 413 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: this woman of course documented everything she put it on 414 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: on the TikTok to get views and go viral and 415 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: gain clout and all that stuff. And sure enough she did. 416 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: And she's like, hey, I've had this for two years 417 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 1: and it's you know, kind of dirty. So we're gonna 418 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: load it up and return it to the Costco and 419 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: I'm done with it. And she was like, well, they 420 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 1: have the return policy. It's like, but this is the 421 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: kind of thing. These are the people that take advantage 422 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 1: of that and then they ruin it for the rest 423 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: of us, Right, It's like the people that are fraudsters 424 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: with insurance, and so everyone's insurance rate goes up because 425 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: there's fraudsters out there, and there's no such thing as 426 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: a free lunch. And you know, it's like it's like 427 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: the government handing out free money during COVID. Someone's going 428 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: to have to pay for that, right so someone is 429 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: everyone else is going to have to pay for that. 430 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: And so you return crap and I can stay I'd 431 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: say within a year, okay, but two years plus it's 432 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: si ridiculous. And I was reading that the worst offender, 433 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: the single worst offender, and I may or may not 434 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: be guilty of this. The Costcos in Hawaii day that 435 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: on a regular basis, tourists from the mainland will go 436 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: to Costco when they get to Hawaii. They will buy 437 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: all of the beach chairs, all of the umbrellas, they'll 438 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: buy coolers, all of it. They will use all of 439 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,959 Speaker 1: it for a week or ten days or two weeks, 440 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: and then on their way back to the Maui airport, 441 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: they will stop buy the Costco and return everything wow, everything, surfboards, 442 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: scoob suits, whatever it might be, all back to Costco. 443 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 1: And that is said to be the single worst. The 444 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: different locations on the Hawaiian Islands are the worst of 445 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: the worst. 446 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 3: Can you imagine being an employee at one of those locations? 447 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: What a nightmare? 448 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 3: Man? 449 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,959 Speaker 1: What do they do? I guess they factor that in, right, 450 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: there's a certain percentage of products that get returned. They 451 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: know that going in. That's just kind of the way 452 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: that it works. 453 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 3: But yeah, so people basically treat them as if they're 454 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 3: a rental place. 455 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty much, that's the way it goes. What else 456 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: in Popco's the culture? I saw the follow up last 457 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:45,679 Speaker 1: week we had the Taylor Swift AI porn scandal and 458 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: we talked about that. Alf did some research to make 459 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: sure that that stuff was off the Internet and he 460 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: was able to find some photos of Ai Taylor with 461 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 1: Oscar the Grouch and he made sure to send those 462 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: over to me. Thank you for that, Alf, I appreciate 463 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: that very kind of you to do that. Didn't need that. 464 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: But Taylor Swift as a search term was actually blocked 465 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: briefly on X because of that schedule could not search 466 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift because so many people were like trying to 467 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: find find these photos. And one other note, the schools 468 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: around the United States are having a big problem with 469 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: kids going to the bathroom and vandalizing, vaping, smoking weed, 470 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 1: doing you know things kids do in bathrooms. So did 471 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: you see in Houston and Green Bay they have gone 472 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: to extreme measures to stop kids from doing this in 473 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: the bathroom. A Green Bay High school has put a 474 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: glass door on the bathroom because the schools like, we 475 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: got to stop kids from vaping and vandalizing the bathroom, 476 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: so we're just gonna put a glass door so we 477 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: can see in the bathroom to make sure they're not 478 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: destroying the sink. And in Houston they've gone next level, Danny. 479 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: They've been installed bathroom cameras to record to make sure 480 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: that no one destroys and does drugs in the bathroom 481 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: and destroys. 482 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 3: The sink and whatnot. That's okay with the laws in 483 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 3: their state. 484 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 1: Well, no it's not.
