8
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: kind of it's continuing the story of you know, something

9
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:59,279
Speaker 1: that's been ongoing, especially on the socials. It's this uh,

10
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 1: it's this beef. I got this beef out there with

11
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: this local Omaha Open micro named Ben Webb, and today

12
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: he takes his final wrestling place in our world. And

13
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to that, but before we get there,

14
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you a story. And there's kind of

15
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: where this all started as far as this episode. Because

16
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: this episode today, Johnny, we are giving you the very

17
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: first ever And of course it's gonna be ever, it's

18
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: gonna be fluid. Right this we may who knows, maybe

19
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: in a week, maybe in a month, maybe in three years,

20
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: we will come back and we will update this. But

21
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: right now we know for a fact we have our

22
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: very first inaugural Laugh with Me band list. That's right, Johnny,

23
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: there are some people getting banned from Laugh with Me.

24
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: Now you might be asking, Okay, they're getting banned, big deal,

25
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: What does that mean? They just can't be on the pod? Like,

26
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: what's what's the story there? Well, if you are in

27
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 1: fact on the banned list, yes, you're not allowed to

28
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: be beyond the pod as a guest. That's a given right.

29
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: If you're on the band list, why would we ever

30
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: have you on as a guest? Johnny, Please take note

31
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 1: of this list. Okay, I don't. I don't want to

32
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: get a rundown one day and see see some people

33
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: that are on the band list as guests. I mean,

34
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: that's not how this works. Can you get off the

35
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: band list? Sure you can, Sure you can. Everybody deserves

36
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,839
Speaker 1: a second chance, right, sometimes the third, fourth, fifth, even

37
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: six chances, Robert Downey Jr. So there is a chance

38
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: that you can get back in the good graces of

39
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: Johnny and I and in the world that is the

40
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: Laugh with Me Podcast. But it's not an easy road

41
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: ahead for you. I'm just gonna tell you that right now,

42
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: because it's not just that you're getting banned from being

43
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: a guest on the pod. You're also being fully committed

44
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: as a character on the show. Now, Okay, So that

45
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: means whomever is banned might be evolving in our world

46
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: just a bit. And let's just say you've earned it. Okay.

47
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: If that's the case, then you have earned it. Now,

48
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: we've got one guy in particular that is going to

49
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: be inducted into the Laugh with Me Podcast banned list today,

50
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: and we're going to get to him. But before we

51
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: get to that, I gotta tell you this story because

52
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: there's this other guy who has made the list, so

53
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: to speak. And I didn't see it coming. It started

54
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: a few weeks back. I got new phones. Okay, got

55
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: the you know you're at Verizon, you get you can

56
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: upgrade your phones. Got the kids new phones first, Okay,

57
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: they wanted new phones. Blah blah blah blah. Got a

58
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: new phones. So then I had their old phones and

59
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 1: it you know, you've got the options. You can have

60
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: them mailed back, you can drop them off at a

61
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: like brick and mortar Verizon store, which there's many There

62
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 1: is a many Verizon stores in Omaha and surrounding areas.

63
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: So I had many options there. And then I'm like, well,

64
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: you know, I've I've got the two I've got two

65
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: phones with the kids. And then you know I got

66
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 1: the other two phones. We're gonna get my upgrade those. Well,

67
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 1: that that eventually came weeks later someone out of necessity.

68
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: It was time to get a functioning phone that wasn't

69
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: going to be completely full of space, and I mean

70
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 1: I needed space. Basically, it wasn't completely full the memory.

71
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: So now we have four new phones, and now that

72
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 1: means we have four old phones. Now, what I did

73
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: was two of them were set up to be shipped back. Okay,

74
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: two of them were set up to just be dropped

75
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: off at the local Verizon store. No big deal, I

76
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: don't care what my my mistake here. It wasn't in

77
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: having two different things as far as how to return them.

78
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: My mistake was that I just didn't return them on time. Johnny,

79
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: that one's on me hand up, and I I will

80
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,679
Speaker 1: tell you. When I saw the Verizon guy in person,

81
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: I said, this was my fault. I should have returned

82
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: these on time, but I didn't. So because I didn't,

83
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: they took off all the credits of all the returns

84
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. Right, So then suddenly my bill

85
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: is astronomical. And then and it's not a lot like

86
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 1: the cell phone bills aren't already astronomical, right, They're always creeping,

87
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: they're always creeping up. But this one was ridiculous, so

88
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: obviously I'm not paying that right. Well then they shut

89
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 1: it off by phone that is, so then I'm like, well, shoot,

90
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: now I gotta pay it. Knowing when I returned these phones,

91
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 1: I'm going to get a credit blah blah blah blah blah.

92
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: I'm basically just like paying double right, you know, one month,

93
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna get that back the next month.

94
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: Oh I know, I'm like paying ahead essentially, So that

95
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: part didn't bother me. It was just that now there's

96
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: a sense of vergency. I've got to do it, so

97
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: I do. I go, I grab all four phones, I

98
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 1: grab a box, and I'm like, here's the deal. It's

99
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: not like I can call rising as well. My phone's

100
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: not working now. So now I go to the Verizon

101
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: store that I had the two phones set up to

102
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: be dropped off at. I'm like, the worst case there,

103
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get these two phones dropped off. Maybe they'll

104
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: take all four. I doubt it, but maybe they will

105
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: I'll have them, but for sure, I'm gonna drop off

106
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: these two. Be good to go there, pay what I

107
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: need to pay. Get this bad boy rolling. So you

108
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: go to writing the store and then like it's just

109
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: you know, like anywhere, you're gonna have to wait, you

110
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: know when you're dealing, when you want to deal one

111
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: on one with somebody, and that's okay. I expect that.

112
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: So I've got my box, I've got my four phones.

113
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: I'm sitting there just patiently waiting, and I'm not I'm

114
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: not looking to buy anything, so not like I'm looking

115
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: at all the goods. I'm just sitting there. I'm being patient.

116
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: There's four people working. One of them opens up, he's, hey,

117
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: you know, let me help you out. I'm like, yeah, perfect,

118
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: So I can come up with my box. And I'm

119
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: explaining to him how I've got these four phones, but

120
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: two of them I'm to drop off. I'm laid on it.

121
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: My bad, that's on me. But here's my situation. He

122
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: immediately shuts it down. He goes absolutely, not absolutely, Now,

123
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: you can't do this. I'm like, what are you talking about?

124
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: Like all I'm just trying to like return the phones

125
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: like I was supposed to Johnny. He looked at me

126
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: like I was the biggest idiot in the world. He's like,

127
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 1: did you get your new phone here? And I'm like, well,

128
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: I got my new phones at Verizon and I did

129
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: it on the website that it is absolutely impossible that

130
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: you can drop off these phones here at the store

131
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: unless you received those new phones from this location. And

132
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: I go, well, I don't know where the new phones

133
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: came from. All I know is that's how I ordered it.

134
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 1: And it specifically asked me if I want to drop

135
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: them off at the store. It had your location and everything.

136
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: It was absolutely not you have been bamboozled. And I'm like, bamboozled.

137
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: How does a guy get bamboozled by their own company,

138
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: like it was their own website. And He's saying, I

139
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: got bamboozled just because it told me I could drop

140
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: off two of the phones at the store. He's like, Nope,

141
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: you got to call blah blah blah blah. And I go, I, well,

142
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: here's the thing. I can't call them, So here's I

Speaker 1: go about my business knowing that my future building is

147
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: going to be back to what it was. And he's

148

Speaker 1: just like, well, absolutely not. Can't can't help you. Nothing,

00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: He goes, absolutely not unless you got him right here

155
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: in the store. And I'm like, I I think you're wrong, sir,

156
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 1: And I kind of chuckled, and he's like, I am

157
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: not wrong. You have to call a blah, And I go,

158
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,800

00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: you the situation, and I promise you I'm going to

162
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 1: He did not want me back. That's when I told him,

163
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: you know, and that's the thing. Remember this all started

164
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: my fault hand up. I didn't return the phones in

165
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: appropriately at the right time to the right place. Apparently

166
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: I didn't do those things. What what I was expecting

167
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: I guess from the company in which I'm paying the

168
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: money to. That's that's helping me. Here is just some

169
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:37,559
Speaker 1: guidance in uh, you know, how to how to accomplish

170
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,520

00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: and then I know I'll have credits coming and then

183
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: And this is how you know it's getting low. My

184
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: my body temperature is running really really warm. I'm super tired,

185
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 1: and I'm on edge. And this guy, I'm passionate about

Speaker 1: customer service, have been it's in my bones serving people.

187
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: And this guy refused to even consider the thought that

188
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: he could help us. And you know what, I should

189
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: have known because the couple, the older couple that was

190
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: being helped by him, and I'm being when I say helped,

191
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: I should have air quotes up. They were being helped

192
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: by him before me. And he was very adamant that

193
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: he absolutely will not cannot print a statement for them.

194
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 1: They wanted like a like a billing statement or something, ease,

195
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: you have to do that on your own. I will not.

196
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: I cannot do that. We cannot print that here. I

197
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: don't know what that's all about. I don't know that.

198
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: Maybe there's a deeper story there, but the story within

199
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: this one with me is that he refused to help me.

200
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: And I had his goods, I had his phones, and

201
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: I said, I'm going to call this number. I'm gonna

202
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: figure out a way. I'm gonna call this number, and

203
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: they are gonna tell me that I come back here,

204
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna come back and I'm gonna be a problem.

205
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: And I told him that wasn't a promise, that was

206
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: a threat. Well then you say the word threat, whether

207
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: it's or not, And I what am I gonna do?

208
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: What's my threat. My threat was that I'm coming back

209
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna be a problem, which just means, yeah,

210
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you know how wrong you were because

211
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: you're being a little bitch. That was my threat, Well

212
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: hit a threat to him. I couldn't mean anything, right,

213
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: So anyways, I didn't go out and cuffs or anything,

214
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: but I did leave with my box, with my four phones.

215
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: There was a Scooter's coffee shop nearby. I used the

216
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: Wi Fi to be able to call this number. Well,

217
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 1: the number wouldn't work because, like I told you, freaking

218
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: fuh like, I shut off right now. But I was

219
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: able to pay the obnoxiously large bill and then it

220
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 1: took fifteen minutes or so or whatever before I could

221
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: finally speak to somebody. And you know what, when I

222
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: spoke to this lady, and she was super nice. When

223
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: I spoke to this lady at Verizon, she could not

224
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: believe that that guy would not take the two phones

225
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: that were supposed to have been dropped off there. Her

226
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,479
Speaker 1: mind was blown. And I'm like, ma'am, you do not understand.

227
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 1: He said that you guys bamboozled me, And that's just

228
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: completely obnoxious to her that that would even be a thing.

229
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: So in the end, she got me taken care of.

230
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: All four phones were then mailed. I got it all.

231
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: It's all done, it's all taken care of, and everything's

232
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 1: right in the world as far as that goes. But

233
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: one thing that we do need to do, just to

234
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: kind of get closure on this is we we cut

235
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: we have we have to declare are on this Verizon location,

236
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: and we are putting the Verizon guy that I dealt with,

237
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: He's on the list. You're on the band list, Verison guy.

238
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: I highly doubt that guy's ever getting off this list

239
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: because you know, frankly, I probably won't ever run into

240
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: him again, but if I do, I'm gonna have to

241
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: let him know he's on this list. I also reserved

242
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: a right to create a character in your name. Those

243
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: are the rules. That's the banned list rules. Okay, but

244
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: he's the very first inductee onto the Laugh with Me

245
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: band list. Well deserved. I think I told you very

246
00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: passionate about customer service, always have been, and the fact

247
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: that he just wouldn't even like, wouldn't even consider that

248
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,439
Speaker 1: there was something that he could do. Maybe take my payment,

249
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: then I could call, then I could sort out like

250
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: there were options here. He didn't even put in my

251
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: name or number or anything to see if what I

252
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: was saying was true or not. He could have looked

253
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 1: it up and be like, oh shit, yeah, you've boy one.

254
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: You should have returned the phones too, You should have

255
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 1: paid the bill. Yeah, I am aware, sir, And here

256
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: I am trying to rectify all this like that. There

257
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: could have been a fun back and forth there and

258
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: we could have paid it, okay, And then now here

259
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: we are rising guys on the band list. So that's uh,

260
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: that's that's where we're at. But he's not the only

261
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 1: one making the band list here today. No, no, no,

262
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: We've got a wide ranging list of characters that are

263
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,359

307
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: scandal so quickly. It still bothers me. Maybe it's because

308
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: he's a Dodger and I'm a Padres fan and I

309
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: gotta watch his ass beat us up all freaking season.

310
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,719
Speaker 1: But either way, I don't know how he's so quickly

311
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: and so neatly had that ginormous gambling sports betting gambling

312
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:13,800

Speaker 1: not over, but it just certainly does appear to be over.

314
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 1: And he isn't. His interpreter is going to be the

315
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: fall guy, is the fault guy. I mean, either way,

316
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 1: it's it's it's sad. It's sad that you know, there's

317

331
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: actually is one of our most listened to episodes of

332
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: the entire year is the Academy Awards preview when we

333
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 1: just had our third one with Grant Pearson. And he's

334
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 1: our movie guy. He is the expert. He watches all

335
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: of the movies and some so we really wanted to

336
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,120
Speaker 1: keep that one clean and just focus on the movie.

337
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 1: But the two episodes before that, we're talking about your boy.

338
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: We're talking about your boy. And here's the thing, We've

339
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: put out some social activity, man, Ben. I don't know.

340
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 1: I know the people that have been coming to me

341
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: and telling me what they think, not just about the show,

342
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 1: but about you. And I know that those episodes have

343
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: been very much listen to, actually gained quite a bit

344
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:43,200

Speaker 1: practice acting and whatever whatever it is you're doing. And

348
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: maybe instead of taking selfies at the middle of rehearsal,

349
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 1: you should be like focusing. But that's just my opinion, sir.
