Speaker 1: Today's Thursday. We normally record on Wednesday, So I ordered
Speaker 1: my lasagna through Slice yesterday, so I feel like I
Speaker 1: should have ordered Slice again. Well, I got my Pizza
Speaker 1: Republic waiting for me as soon as we're done with
Speaker 1: the show. For everybody else, you gotta go to Slice
Speaker 1: life dot com and get five dollars off your first
Speaker 1: order using code Brooklyn. So do like we just did,
Speaker 1: support your local pizza place, say five dollars on your
Speaker 1: first order Keyward Brooklyn. Slice is the largest network of
Speaker 1: independent pizzerias in the country and that's why we love them.
Speaker 1: Guess who just got that today? There Brooklyn mos that
Speaker 1: it'd been away. They both have so much to see.
Speaker 1: You know their names. A brilliant Scaring began toast episode
Speaker 1: one seventy seven and Brooken Boys podcast, and we were
Speaker 1: playing that music. That's the we were off for a
Speaker 1: week on vacation music, even though we weren't really off
Speaker 1: of vacation. I mean, normally we wouldn't be playing that
Speaker 1: here because we would have had an episode last week,
Speaker 1: but we didn't, so we're playing it. So yeah, so
Speaker 1: you know what, Uh, we did a piss poor job
Speaker 1: of notifying the people you think I took a personal week. Uh,
Speaker 1: and we weren't able to do a podcast because I
Speaker 1: wasn't around equipment and a lot a lot going on
Speaker 1: in YadA, YadA and YadA. And by the time that
Speaker 1: we picked up all the pieces, it was Friday, and
Speaker 1: we're like, uh, not only did you take a personal week,
Speaker 1: but uh, we didn't eds you a podcast. Uh. And
Speaker 1: the slices are clamoring for one. Uh yeah, so apologies,
Speaker 1: although somebody damn me and said, did your podcast get canceled?
Speaker 1: Which I'm not. I'm not sure how that opened. We
Speaker 1: do our own thing, like we don't like exactly like
Speaker 1: cancel culture. Yeah, like you can't fire us from our podcast.
Speaker 1: It's our podcast, so not so there you go. But
Speaker 1: one of these days we will quit and that's how
Speaker 1: it will get canceled. But no one didn't even want
Speaker 1: to think that's the possibility. And it's like it's like,
Speaker 1: did you want you didn't watch the Friends Reunion? Right?
Speaker 1: Not yet? Okay, So they talked about how they thought
Speaker 1: the show would go on forever because it was so successful, like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is not gonna cancel the show. At the height
Speaker 1: of their success, they canceled themselves. Well, the network canceled
Speaker 1: them because at some point they were married and had
Speaker 1: babies and it was a different show. I'm thinking of Seinfeld,
Speaker 1: the show that went out on top. They could have
Speaker 1: done five seasons. Oh, absolutely, absolutely, they could have, but
Speaker 1: they didn't. So and then the finale wasn't great. The
Speaker 1: Friends finale was very good. I have to say, I'd
Speaker 1: like to think that you and I will be here
Speaker 1: doing this podcast long after we are off the Big
Speaker 1: Show or the Big Show finishes, you know, not that
Speaker 1: that not that I see that end anytime. But if
Speaker 1: the Strand Morning Show ends, that doesn't mean we end. No,
Speaker 1: at some point we'll need to get jobs. But hopefully
Speaker 1: this will keep us busy and in the industry of industry,
Speaker 1: I mean the business. Yeah, and that's the point where
Speaker 1: we put ourselves behind a paywall, and it's thirty dollars
Speaker 1: a month because because we're broke. I don't know about
Speaker 1: thirty dollars a month. I'm kidding, I'm kidding, or a
Speaker 1: dime something like that. Yeah, speaking of walls, no names,
Speaker 1: but there was a guy he used to be He
Speaker 1: was on in New York radio for a really long time,
Speaker 1: really long. Oh, I know who you're talking about. This
Speaker 1: is embarrassing. Well yeah, well there's there's two parts to this.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that the the we'll talk about the
Speaker 1: first part where he built like a zillion dollars studio
Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere after his radio show went off, right,
Speaker 1: so he moved on. He moved to Texas, I think,
Speaker 1: and he built a huge radio studio and said I
Speaker 1: don't need to restore radio anymore. And he signed on
Speaker 1: with some third rate wrestling association. And then he's been
Speaker 1: doing commercials where he's promoting his action figure. But it
Speaker 1: makes it look like the Wrestling Federation, not the w
Speaker 1: w F, the w w A, not the like not
Speaker 1: the real one, but like this other wrestling company is
Speaker 1: promoting his action figure. But it's not he bought the
Speaker 1: action figure. He's paying for commercials and has wrestling in
Speaker 1: the background. But he started a podcast with a paywall
Speaker 1: and not what was this like, it's like a month.
Speaker 1: There was a lot of money. It was a lot
Speaker 1: of money. But people like I'm gonna show you the
Speaker 1: funny and all my listeners from radio for the last
Speaker 1: forty years, his voice, his voice radio listens are gonna
Speaker 1: follow me over. Guess what, he's not Howards Stern. They
Speaker 1: did not, they did not follow him. I don't think
Speaker 1: he does his podcast anymore. I don't know, but I
Speaker 1: think you have to like if we did this for
Speaker 1: pay like, I'm not let me stay for the record,
Speaker 1: I'm not confident that that, let's say, this was our
Speaker 1: this was our thing that we did for a living focus,
Speaker 1: our sole focused and we like dedicated all the time
Speaker 1: energy to this right as our only job. I am
Speaker 1: not confident that people would follow us over if we
Speaker 1: put ourselves behind a paywall, because listen, if it's for free,
Speaker 1: it's for me. I mean, listen, We'll talk about free
Speaker 1: dessert all day. But if you gotta pay now, all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, everybody's got out of alligator arms and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, long pockets with the money they don't know.
Speaker 1: And by the way, we aren't testing the water. This
Speaker 1: is just us talking. Yeah, Now, this is a if
Speaker 1: I if there was a podcast I loved, you know what?
Speaker 1: I Would I pay five dollars a month? That seems
Speaker 1: like a nominal fee. Would I pay fifty dollars a year?
Speaker 1: That sounds like more money? Right? Even though fifty dollars
Speaker 1: a year is less than five dollars a month. It
Speaker 1: sounds like more, doesn't it. Yes, we would have to give.
Speaker 1: We would have to give the show. We would have
Speaker 1: to give more episodes a week for starters. If we're
Speaker 1: going to charge you any monthly fee, that's not now
Speaker 1: you Now you're just torpedo and the whole thing. Shush. No,
Speaker 1: you think we're gonna skate by on once a week
Speaker 1: and have people paid. If you pay five dollars a month,
Speaker 1: that's a dollar episode. That's not a lot of money.
Speaker 1: But that's like buying a song on on iTunes. And
Speaker 1: who doesn't die anymore? Well, we're we're an hour, hour
Speaker 1: and fifteen minute podcast usually, so that's much longer on
Speaker 1: a song. I don't know. I'm not even thinking about
Speaker 1: this stuff. But the whole point was that that guy
Speaker 1: tried to do that. He gambled and lost, which is
Speaker 1: why I'm scared. That's why i'm again. I think our
Speaker 1: slices are more loyal. I don't think his people were loyal.
Speaker 1: I think they listened to him because he was what
Speaker 1: was on the station they liked. I think you have
Speaker 1: to have people like you, right, Like there was no
Speaker 1: passion for him, like Elvis could Elvis could do that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you think Elvis. Elvis retires in twenty years, he could
Speaker 1: probably do a podcast where people would check in, you know. Yeah, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: So I want to give a little backstory. We had
Speaker 1: no problem. We're gonna We're gonna do the podcast today
Speaker 1: at like two o'clock in the afternoon. You know. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was ready to go. In fact, I you to
Speaker 1: tweet last night that said, hey, slices tomorrow, a new
Speaker 1: podcast is coming in the afternoon, and here it is.
Speaker 1: Any So people were already deeming me, going, well, where
Speaker 1: is it. Right, Here's what happens. I sat down in
Speaker 1: my basement studio. I turned off the dryer, which my
Speaker 1: kid had closed in the dryer. She came down, She's like, hey,
Speaker 1: my clothes are way. I was like, I have to podcast.
Speaker 1: Oh I need my clothes for tonight. So that was typical,
Speaker 1: you know, teenage situation. However, we weren't recording. So it
Speaker 1: wasn't the end of the world. Why weren't we recording? Well, uh,
Speaker 1: we we set everything up and and uh, I said
Speaker 1: to Scary, so are you ready to go? And I
Speaker 1: hear this yeah, I'm ready to go like like eight
Speaker 1: seconds days. So then so then I I go to
Speaker 1: repeat it because like, why aren't you answering me? I said,
Speaker 1: I did answer you, so there was silence and said
Speaker 1: totally why aren't you talking? Basically, there was a terrible delay.
Speaker 1: And it was like a terrible delay four second delay
Speaker 1: between me hearing Brody and responding and then Brodie hearing
Speaker 1: me back and him responding. Could you imagine if we
Speaker 1: decided to hit the record button this afternoon with a
Speaker 1: four second delay. It's like when back in the day
Speaker 1: when CNN used to throw it to Iraq in the
Speaker 1: nineties and he used to say, okay, Wolf, what's going
Speaker 1: on and then used to sit there through and then
Speaker 1: they would talk. That's what it would be like for
Speaker 1: every response, right, and you have to do that on
Speaker 1: on cable news. You have to do nod uh huh
Speaker 1: you're waiting? Uh yeah. So anyway, it was terrible and
Speaker 1: I was getting a message saying your WiFi is delayed,
Speaker 1: your internet's delayed. Well you knew it wasn't my six
Speaker 1: hudred seventy three dollar equipment over here? Oh whoa did
Speaker 1: you sell off half of it? No? It wasn't your equipment.
Speaker 1: It was definitely. So I then had the troubleshoot what
Speaker 1: was going on? So Scary says, just close the browser,
Speaker 1: tried a different browser. So I tried a different browser. Nope,
Speaker 1: not that didn't fix me. Tried for an hour. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he says, oh, you know what, a clean rebooting, clean
Speaker 1: re boo didn't fix it. Clean clean reboot didn't fix anything.
Speaker 1: Rebooted the router, pushed the button, hit the reset, unplugged
Speaker 1: it for a minute, did all the things Verizon is
Speaker 1: gonna tell me to do? I did? So do you
Speaker 1: want the whole story now? No, let's let's save part
Speaker 1: two for the rant. That's what I'll say. The lack
Speaker 1: of doing the show at two o'clock gave put me
Speaker 1: into a spiral, a rabbit hole that the whole time
Speaker 1: I'm going this is content. So I didn't have a rant,
Speaker 1: but I have a rant now, yes, And so thankfully
Speaker 1: we're doing the podcast later this evening here, so Brodie
Speaker 1: could get screwed. Brody got fucked. That's in the five hours,
Speaker 1: and he has a rant for later on. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I want to know why I can't walk around with
Speaker 1: a child world t shirt child World. Remember the beach,
Speaker 1: Remember remember the beach? In New Jersey. No, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: none of them. No. In North Jersey and in the
Speaker 1: Tri state area, there used to be a regional toys
Speaker 1: to or called child World, and they used to have
Speaker 1: a jingle that's it, child World, child World, everything a
Speaker 1: toy store should be. Yes, I remember that. It was
Speaker 1: like kind of like toys as then it was Kaby Toys,
Speaker 1: and then it was child World. It was like which
Speaker 1: is why they were out of business, by the way.
Speaker 1: So in fact, a little toy stores pretty much are
Speaker 1: so you know, basically it was like a you know,
Speaker 1: a panda and all that stuff. So you want to
Speaker 1: you want a retro shirt. Bumbled upon a website which,
Speaker 1: as we should we have a sponsored world dot com
Speaker 1: because that's dangerous. I was on, I was on a
Speaker 1: vintage T shirt exactly where you were going with the
Speaker 1: prody and I ordered this shirt. Okay, I ordered It
Speaker 1: was a blue It's a nice light blue sky blue
Speaker 1: shirt with the old school eighties child World, the toy
Speaker 1: supermarket logo on it. I buy the shirt online and
Speaker 1: it gets sent to my house and I start waxing
Speaker 1: nostalgic about it, right, I'm like, yeah, old school. And
Speaker 1: then I realized, oh good, I can't really wear this
Speaker 1: anywhere because if people don't get the joke, if people
Speaker 1: don't get that, oh my god, that's cool, that was
Speaker 1: like that old school brand from the eighties and nineties,
Speaker 1: then they're gonna look at me like I'm some fucking
Speaker 1: freak so or a representative from Florida. So I tried
Speaker 1: to Uh yeah, I wore it to work. I weren't
Speaker 1: to work yesterday, but I wore it to the radio station,
Speaker 1: and I did get a couple of like weird looks
Speaker 1: kind of people look at the side. I anyway, we
Speaker 1: didn't talk about it on the air, but I'm going
Speaker 1: to dress it right here. If it's for the sake
Speaker 1: of nostalgia, if it's if it's an old school logo
Speaker 1: with an old school print on it and it happens
Speaker 1: to be called child World, the Toy the Toys Supermarket,
Speaker 1: why is that a bad thing? Okay? Does the shirt
Speaker 1: say child World Toy Store. It says the World the
Speaker 1: Toy Supermarket. It says child World the Toy Supermarket. It's
Speaker 1: the full logo of what it was now again, you
Speaker 1: may not know what child World is or what is
Speaker 1: again terrible name. Probably they would have changed it by
Speaker 1: now if they still exist, the world child World. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but there's a lot of those brands and a lot
Speaker 1: of those things that existed regionally, Like we had these
Speaker 1: things places called corvettes. We had places department stores, department stores. Yeah,
Speaker 1: everybody knows the kaldor Bradley's. These are by the way,
Speaker 1: I bought all the shirts. I brought all of them
Speaker 1: on this one website. It's all right, So you're you're
Speaker 1: living in the in the eighties with brands that are regional.
Speaker 1: It's it's not ironic. It's I got an Entimate T
Speaker 1: shirt because that's okay, fine, I was gonna buy a
Speaker 1: Crazy Eddie shirt. You know they have the prices are insane.
Speaker 1: So yeah, Crazy Eddies was a legendary electronics store in
Speaker 1: this area. Anyway, here's what I would say about child World. Please,
Speaker 1: you can't take that risk because it sounds like like
Speaker 1: if you went to Okay, let me ask you a question,
Speaker 1: if you went to Plant World, what would you expect
Speaker 1: them to sell weed? Alright, plants though, plants, of course. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you went to Dog world. They'd be selling dogs.
Speaker 1: I see where you're going with this. You're going to
Speaker 1: child world. You're buying children on the black market. Like,
Speaker 1: that's the terrible name. And if like it looks like
Speaker 1: you know what it sounds like, if you don't know
Speaker 1: it's a toy store. I'd look at that shirt and
Speaker 1: think it was like supposed to be a funny attempt
Speaker 1: that here's a store where you can buy children. Oh,
Speaker 1: you can buy kids in the store. It's like, I
Speaker 1: get it. It's a pun. That's why they were in stock.
Speaker 1: And they weren't sold out like the crazy Eddie Shore
Speaker 1: who was because nobody but I was the only one
Speaker 1: who bought it. Oh no, there's a couple of guys
Speaker 1: with vans down by the river right now. But they didn't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: for other reasons. I actually am. I'm innocent about it,
Speaker 1: and I just don't God, see, how do I get
Speaker 1: myself into this ship? See now here? I was thinking
Speaker 1: I was going to show up at the bars this
Speaker 1: summer with an ironic sort of not it's not even ironic,
Speaker 1: it's the wrong word, but like a nostalgic graphic t
Speaker 1: where somebody in the crowd might be like, look, at that.
Speaker 1: I remember that. Oh scary, look at that old shirt.
Speaker 1: You can't do that. No, you can't show up to
Speaker 1: a bar of adults with a Child World shirt. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you certainly can't go near a school. But but did
Speaker 1: you wear it with your trench coat? This? It match
Speaker 1: this print? Brody has I'm gonna I'm I'll post a
Speaker 1: picture of it later. No, actually you shouldn't know, because
Speaker 1: then the Internet's gonna cancel me. Damn I can't. God,
Speaker 1: damn it. I can't even show it anyway. It's it's innocent.
Speaker 1: A right would be making but they wouldn't be making
Speaker 1: it if it was for any other reason. It's just,
Speaker 1: you know, we all like to go into our past. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you don't. You don't, Okay, but you can't. No,
Speaker 1: it's terrible. No child alright, I've got just got another
Speaker 1: sleep shirt. So thanks, you're gonna You're gonna sleep in
Speaker 1: your Child World shirt. No one's gonna see me. That's
Speaker 1: the point. Sleep shirts are just for me. Yeah, Michael
Speaker 1: Jackson like sleep shirt, dude, come on a sleep shoot
Speaker 1: at donald Get Yeah. When I know I wear T
Speaker 1: shirts at night underwear you have unders. No one sees
Speaker 1: the shirt but me. That's my point, and this shirt
Speaker 1: will never see the light of day period. I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna I'm not gonna wear it anywhere, you know, only
Speaker 1: for myself at night. What am I gonna do? Throw
Speaker 1: it away? I mean, you definitely can't sk your own
Speaker 1: d wearing that shirt. That's just that's terrible. I'm just saying, Brodie,
Speaker 1: you know you're being disgusting. Now, You're not a path No,
Speaker 1: I'm just hearing that. Why didn't you think about it
Speaker 1: before you bought the shirt? I didn't because you don't
Speaker 1: want because my money doesn't go there. Because I'm actually
Speaker 1: pretty pure about that. You know what I'm saying. Did
Speaker 1: you also like a girl Scout shirt? No? Dude, come on,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's I'm innocent. That's why
Speaker 1: I bought it because I don't think the way I
Speaker 1: probably should. I'm innocent. Also, I just think you're asking
Speaker 1: for trouble. Yeah, all right, well, I'm not gonna well
Speaker 1: forget it and I'm retiring the shirt, but you know
Speaker 1: the rest will live on, you know. All right? Well,
Speaker 1: I gotta m AFU now I need your opinion on something,
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna give credit where credit is due. I
Speaker 1: told you I'm a big fan of a New York
Speaker 1: radio show on w f A and Carton and Roberts.
Speaker 1: Craig Carton, Evan Roberts. You give them credit. I've mentioned
Speaker 1: them before on this podcast. They had a conversation yesterday.
Speaker 1: They got me very got me irked. But before I
Speaker 1: tell you the conversation scary. You know those people that
Speaker 1: when you're on an exit to a parkway, right, Let's
Speaker 1: say you're like eighth in line, seventh in line, and
Speaker 1: then that car comes in at the right, at the end,
Speaker 1: it right at the exit, chisel they chisel in. Okay,
Speaker 1: what if the second car in line decides they're gonna
Speaker 1: let that car go ahead of them? Does that second
Speaker 1: car have the right to do that? No, it doesn't, right,
Speaker 1: because they're speaking for the entire parkway right, they're letting.
Speaker 1: But if the chisel er chiseled his way and then
Speaker 1: the second car just backed off because they don't want
Speaker 1: to they don't want to get to an accident, then
Speaker 1: I can understand. Because sometimes I wanted to get you
Speaker 1: on the record on chiselers before I give you this conversation,
Speaker 1: because I'm pretty sure I know what you're gonna say. So,
Speaker 1: Craig Carton says, he is this great idea, right, great
Speaker 1: idea for when you're at like a concert or a
Speaker 1: sporting event and it's a really long line. He says,
Speaker 1: you go up to the second person in line, because
Speaker 1: don't do this if the line is not that long.
Speaker 1: But if the line is really long, you go up
Speaker 1: to the second person and you say, hey, man, if
Speaker 1: you could just add on a couple of things for me,
Speaker 1: like a beer and some fries or hot dog whatever,
Speaker 1: I'll pay for your food in mine. He said. It
Speaker 1: works every time. The guy, the guy on online of
Speaker 1: the woman will always say that, oh, you're buying my food.
Speaker 1: No problem. You give him like forty bucks whatever. They
Speaker 1: buy your food. Also when they go up and then
Speaker 1: you don't have to wait online and it costs your money,
Speaker 1: but you have to wait online paying for access, which
Speaker 1: is I see no problem with you, don't. You don't
Speaker 1: see that as chisel that's not a chiseler. Why because
Speaker 1: the person, the second person in line, the second person
Speaker 1: in line, is going to give the order all at once.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be one transaction and that's the end of it.
Speaker 1: It's not two transactions. It's one. Yeah, but what if
Speaker 1: they order a popcorn and it has to be microwaved.
Speaker 1: What if they order a condition has to be microwaved
Speaker 1: that they weren't gonna order. What if they wanted a
Speaker 1: beer and then the beer tap runs out, they gotta
Speaker 1: change the beer tap. It's gonna take at least an
Speaker 1: extra minute or two to get whatever food. That's where
Speaker 1: I did well, that's where I have to disagree with
Speaker 1: my own statement from before. I think that there's nothing
Speaker 1: wrong with that. I think it's clever. And I think
Speaker 1: if you're smart enough to think about it, and you
Speaker 1: have the money to pay for it, and you feel
Speaker 1: like you want to reach into your pocket and do
Speaker 1: it and it's a nice gesture, I think you have
Speaker 1: every right to do it. And I disagree completely because
Speaker 1: you for it. That's why you know, you've you've you.
Speaker 1: That's not now I would if I didn't want to
Speaker 1: wait a line and and nobody else was offended. Let
Speaker 1: me ask you this scary. Let's say you're the guy
Speaker 1: third in line, right, You've waited forty minutes to get
Speaker 1: to that point. Now, the guy in front of you
Speaker 1: was making a profit and slowing you down more. You're
Speaker 1: not bothered at all. You have no problem with it.
Speaker 1: As the third guy in line, I had a problem
Speaker 1: with it. But I have to sit there and eat
Speaker 1: my words. I have to take it. I have to
Speaker 1: take it because because somebody came and you know, outsmarted me.
Speaker 1: Sometimes sometimes you use, sometimes you lose. And if I
Speaker 1: was third in line, I would have been a loser. Well,
Speaker 1: if I was third in line, I would have said,
Speaker 1: pay for half my food. I'll do it for less.
Speaker 1: You know who did this? The guy in front of
Speaker 1: me do this? Last week? Um Our producer Sam's boyfriend William.
Speaker 1: You know, big buff William William in the sauna with
Speaker 1: sauna William that he worked me out in the saunas
Speaker 1: did uh? You know he's a physically fit guy. Um
Speaker 1: They were saying. Sam was waiting to get into the nightclub.
Speaker 1: She gets in the club, but then she's you know,
Speaker 1: but but William hadn't entered yet. He was all the
Speaker 1: way in the back and he wanted to get some food,
Speaker 1: but the line was long. So she sees at the
Speaker 1: corner of her eye he's buying five slices of pizza.
Speaker 1: Five slices of pizza. All the way out because give
Speaker 1: me a line. There's a line for the club and
Speaker 1: then in the and then you know, several feet beyond
Speaker 1: that is an open food court for anybody to get pizza. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me just set that up for you. That's the
Speaker 1: death Jenkinson's in Point Pleasant Beach, not a sponsor. So
Speaker 1: so he didn't he didn't do the pizza walking, did he. No,
Speaker 1: he didn't. One better, So she's like, why is he
Speaker 1: buying five slices of pizza for himself? It's just for himself.
Speaker 1: He would never do that. He didn't, you know what
Speaker 1: he did. No, he wanted to slice of pizza. He
Speaker 1: legit went cut the line all the way to the
Speaker 1: front and and just whispered to the person, Hey, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you the slice of pizza if you you know,
Speaker 1: let me you know, cut you or something like that,
Speaker 1: or you and your group of people here because you
Speaker 1: wrote extra pizza for people bought. He bought three extra
Speaker 1: slices for the p for the group of people that
Speaker 1: were like right in front, and he handed it to
Speaker 1: them as if he was part of the group that
Speaker 1: he was walking back, so to them they knew he
Speaker 1: was a line cutter. Right, they're getting free food out
Speaker 1: of it, and he said it low enough for them
Speaker 1: to you understand what saying for them to be you're
Speaker 1: part of our group. So when will you walk up
Speaker 1: and start saying talking to the guy like he's your buddy.
Speaker 1: Everything you have everyone in back, all the people that
Speaker 1: were waiting on line to get into the club, they
Speaker 1: got fucked. They got fucked, but they didn't know they
Speaker 1: got fucked because they thought, oh, he was the he
Speaker 1: was the fifth friend that decided to go get pizza,
Speaker 1: and now he's bringing it back to them. He's with
Speaker 1: that group and no one, no one called him out
Speaker 1: for it, and he got away with it and it
Speaker 1: cost him three exercises. So is that wrong? Okay, well,
Speaker 1: before I answer that question, let me go back to
Speaker 1: the Parkway by Sam was already in the club and
Speaker 1: witness the entire thing. I was like, holy sh it,
Speaker 1: that was genius. We should be talking about that on
Speaker 1: the radio. But here's the thing. Let me go back
Speaker 1: to the car chiseling in at the exit. Okay, Let's
Speaker 1: say the guy rolls down his window in his BMW
Speaker 1: and he says to the guy, because that's to those
Speaker 1: people you know. He says to the guy in the ford, Hey, man,
Speaker 1: can you let me in? I'll give you I'll give
Speaker 1: you ten bucks, and he throws the ten dollars into
Speaker 1: the guy's call window and the guy lets him in
Speaker 1: for ten bucks. Now it's the same situation. Now, is
Speaker 1: it okay to chisel in? Oh your fad, get ahead,
Speaker 1: get head ahead. It's not ah okay. Oh so what
Speaker 1: if we're The guy in the BMW was like, Mike, Mike,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I haven't seeing you in a while.
Speaker 1: I love your new Ford, Mikey babes, let me get
Speaker 1: in front of you, Mike. And the guy in the
Speaker 1: Ford's like, oh yeah, alright, Tony, give me ten bucks.
Speaker 1: They're like oh yeah, and he cut some cut in.
Speaker 1: That's fine then, right, Yeah, it's about the Benjamin's or
Speaker 1: the pizza. Yeah, that's not okay either. That's why I
Speaker 1: set you up at the traffic scenario first, because I
Speaker 1: know the way your mind works. You love cutting lines,
Speaker 1: you love the belt. We all do. We all love
Speaker 1: cutting lines. We all love access, don't we like access?
Speaker 1: I like access. When it's like, hey, you guys work
Speaker 1: on the radio, we'd love to have you come in
Speaker 1: the club. That's not cutting anybody, that's just giving you,
Speaker 1: letting you in in addition everybody else. But that's different
Speaker 1: than cutting in. I've never chisel in the parkway, never chisel.
Speaker 1: I'm a no chat and I I'm the guy. I'm
Speaker 1: the guy who who like rides the bumper the guy
Speaker 1: in front of him. Okay, you are not getting in
Speaker 1: getting Look you are not getting I don't even look
Speaker 1: at them. What if you're at home? I love I
Speaker 1: love the William pizza thing is that it's brilliant. It's brilliant.
Speaker 1: What I don't think it's nice. What if you're okay?
Speaker 1: What if you're eating pizza, speaking of pizza, and you're
Speaker 1: sitting at home and you're waiting for your pizza to
Speaker 1: get there okay from slice, and you know he wanted
Speaker 1: to get there extra quickly to make sure your pie
Speaker 1: is hot. I feel like this analogy is gonna be terrible.
Speaker 1: And he did, he did, he did the chisel. Would
Speaker 1: you be okay if you were on the receiving end
Speaker 1: of hot pizza from your favorite local pizzeria? Do I
Speaker 1: know eachise me and say said to you, I chiseled
Speaker 1: my way into a line because Otherwise you wouldn't have
Speaker 1: gotten this pie for an extra ten minutes and it
Speaker 1: would have been cold. Would you, as the recipient of
Speaker 1: the pizza, wait, who paid for that pie? You'd be
Speaker 1: able because I'll tell you what, what about the guys
Speaker 1: that that had to wait that much longer on the
Speaker 1: on the exit? Who maybe we're on the way to
Speaker 1: watch the birth of their child or their favorite TV
Speaker 1: show and they don't have a DVR or their wife
Speaker 1: told him the next time you're late, that's it. You're
Speaker 1: sleeping on the couch. Right, You never know what those
Speaker 1: people will late. The people at Chisel Scary think that
Speaker 1: their life is more important than everybody. Whatever's in their mind.
Speaker 1: I go, oh, I gotta Chisel because I got a
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah. They are They are egotistical
Speaker 1: enough to not care about other human beings. All right,
Speaker 1: we were talking about Slice, so we might as well
Speaker 1: talk about Slice. Because Pizza Republic is a local pizza
Speaker 1: spot by me and I ordered. I ordered a rice ball.
Speaker 1: They have two types of rice balls there. They got
Speaker 1: the one one of my food yesterday now I'm hungering. No,
Speaker 1: they got I got the rice ball with the meat
Speaker 1: and peas which is the classic Sicilian. Pick those peas out,
Speaker 1: and then I have a cheese rice ball. Uh. And
Speaker 1: then I got a chicken millonnaise which is waiting for me,
Speaker 1: and two slices just because. The best part about Slice
Speaker 1: they literally work with the local pizza person. They've saved
Speaker 1: pizza people two fifty million dollars in fees. This is
Speaker 1: supporting list on your order. Yes, this is supporting local.
Speaker 1: This is supporting small businesses because all these pizzai is
Speaker 1: they don't have their own apps. They can't do it,
Speaker 1: so they link up with Slice. That helps them compete
Speaker 1: with big boys you know that are in town. Scary.
Speaker 1: Not only do they help the little guy by giving
Speaker 1: them the technology of a big guy, they don't charge
Speaker 1: them exorbitant fees. That's the real thing. They give them
Speaker 1: the service and they charge a minuscule amount of money
Speaker 1: for these pizza places to have the technology so that
Speaker 1: pain in the butt me can place the customized order
Speaker 1: through the app and not annoy the people. That's that's
Speaker 1: the real The real thing is they're not getting me
Speaker 1: annoying them, and they're not paying a lot of money
Speaker 1: for it. You could take five days in a week
Speaker 1: and order from five different local pizza shops, and each
Speaker 1: time you order you get another pizza point. You get
Speaker 1: eight pizza points, five pie bam. I couldn't wait. I
Speaker 1: couldn't wait for you to say it. So you're earning pizza.
Speaker 1: You're earning. And right now, if your first time ordering
Speaker 1: through Slice, you can get five dollars off, just just
Speaker 1: code word Brooklyn right, new customers, five dollars off your
Speaker 1: first order. But here's the thing. You have a spouse,
Speaker 1: someone you're dating, get them and download the app even
Speaker 1: though you have it, and then use their five dollars
Speaker 1: you got. I see a pattern developing here. I see
Speaker 1: a way to get more five dollar coupons. You know
Speaker 1: what you do, Go and to work, have somebody at work,
Speaker 1: A couple of people that work download for them on
Speaker 1: their phones, and then they can get five dollars off
Speaker 1: and buy you lunch. How about that? How about that?
Speaker 1: More info is at Slice life dot com with Body
Speaker 1: and scary Um. We always do that together, you know.
Speaker 1: After a commercial breakople, ma'am, I want to play sound
Speaker 1: if that's okay. But I also want to talk about horoscopes.
Speaker 1: It's about her scopes for a second. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: not a fan of her scopes, neither of mine. Look,
Speaker 1: if you believe in them, that's fine. You you be you,
Speaker 1: not you you slices. If you guys believe in her scopes,
Speaker 1: you be you? Okay, you do you Me personally, I'm
Speaker 1: not a fan of someone who writes for a newspaper
Speaker 1: or website writing horoscopes and determining how my day is. Right. Oh,
Speaker 1: you're gonna make a new friend today. You don't know that.
Speaker 1: You know you. If you knew me, you know I'm
Speaker 1: not making new friends. So where I was born? Who?
Speaker 1: You can't tell me my day based on what day
Speaker 1: I was born? So many years, a lot of times.
Speaker 1: They're written in generalities, generalities, up against the wall. Oh
Speaker 1: you might make some money, an opportunity is gonna arise.
Speaker 1: Don't look at gift horse in the mouth. Be careful
Speaker 1: how you walk today. Uh, you might get a new
Speaker 1: project at work. Somebody's gonna call you and you go,
Speaker 1: oh my god. Three of the seven things were so me.
Speaker 1: It's perfect again. So somebody raised an interesting question that
Speaker 1: I'm surprised no one has ever brought up before. So
Speaker 1: here's what the text message said, I have a question,
Speaker 1: where do you get your horoscopes from? If you go
Speaker 1: online and ask for daily horoscopes, every horoscope for today
Speaker 1: is different. Why is that? In other words, the morning
Speaker 1: show horoscopes aren't the same as the New York Posts
Speaker 1: horoscopes or horrorscope dot com or your Daily Horoscope dot
Speaker 1: org or whatever. They're not to say why, So I
Speaker 1: wrote back, you want the real answer. They're written by humans,
Speaker 1: random generalities that randomly seem to be talking right to you.
Speaker 1: So they wrote back, I just find it odd that
Speaker 1: they write different hortorscopes for the same day, but yet
Speaker 1: people can't miss them. The people love their right, so
Speaker 1: I said again, it's people who get paid to make
Speaker 1: them up all over the world. They aren't based on anything,
Speaker 1: just random words thrown together. It's not like you have
Speaker 1: uh astrology experts in the Oklahoma Gazette where they're like
Speaker 1: looking at the maps and the charts and they they
Speaker 1: put some ship together on Tuesday that very easily could
Speaker 1: have been Thursday. They tell Aquarius stuff they very easily
Speaker 1: could have told Pisces. It's not a thing. It's not now. Look,
Speaker 1: if you go to somebody that you believe. As an
Speaker 1: expert and a fortune teller, I'm not gonna get into
Speaker 1: that somebody who could read my palm it looked. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna tell you that every higher power it does.
Speaker 1: I'm a skeptic, but if it works for you, it
Speaker 1: works for you. I'm only a dry sing written horoscopes. Okay.
Speaker 1: It's people that read tarot cards. There are people that
Speaker 1: read these lifelines. They look a look at different, They
Speaker 1: look at the creases in your in your hand. These
Speaker 1: people are onto something else which could which may or
Speaker 1: may not be a scam as well. You know, if
Speaker 1: you listen, listen when when my parents went to a
Speaker 1: fortune teller before I was born, they did it like,
Speaker 1: oh that's a goof. They were out another couple. They
Speaker 1: were like, let's go to fun tell right. The woman
Speaker 1: said to my mother, you're gonna you're gonna have a child.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have a son. She wasn't pregnant, Okay. I
Speaker 1: told my father, you're expecting news about a new job. Okay.
Speaker 1: Like a couple of weeks later, my mother found out
Speaker 1: she was pregnant with me, and my father found out
Speaker 1: he was going to be a police officer. Now you
Speaker 1: can tell everybody, oh my god, this woman was you know,
Speaker 1: had amazing powers, or you can go that's random. You
Speaker 1: saw a young couple come in. They're probably at the
Speaker 1: age we're gonna try to have kids like you can an.
Speaker 1: I don't look, I don't know. I don't know the woman.
Speaker 1: The reason is sometimes they're right. The reason as far
Speaker 1: as her scopes go, they're all different because so the
Speaker 1: person wrote back, thank you for responding. I get it. Now.
Speaker 1: There's a common thing here, though, Brodie. That the reason
Speaker 1: why I bring up tarot cards and fortune telling, Tarot cards,
Speaker 1: tarot cards, fortune telling and reading your your your lifelines
Speaker 1: and all and like, and horror scopes, all of it
Speaker 1: together has one thing in common. It it's something for
Speaker 1: people to believe in. People want to believe in something.
Speaker 1: Brett Michael's yeah, because I get something to believe thank you,
Speaker 1: poison poison. But Brett Michaels, my my, So that was
Speaker 1: my larger point when you bring up her scopes to me,
Speaker 1: it all falls in this world of I'm not saying
Speaker 1: tomfoolery or trickery or random thought nous, whatever I'm saying
Speaker 1: it it falls into you. It lies with the people
Speaker 1: that believe people. And that's why I'm saying, if you look,
Speaker 1: you can believe in whatever you want. You can believe
Speaker 1: in hard scope. If you're a slice, you're going, hey, Brodie,
Speaker 1: what the fuck? No? No, no, no, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You can believe in it. All I'm saying is this
Speaker 1: is the first person in all of my years of
Speaker 1: reading text messages and emails and being alive, no one
Speaker 1: has ever asked why they don't all match, right, Like,
Speaker 1: why does one say you should get an adventure today
Speaker 1: and one says you should be cautious today? Because right
Speaker 1: because of the random randomness of it, because it different
Speaker 1: people are just writing them. I love how. By the way, uh,
Speaker 1: nobody calls me all day. I've said this once before
Speaker 1: and nobody texts me. Nobody calls me. And now here
Speaker 1: we are about forty minutes into this podcast, and I've
Speaker 1: gotten about seventeen texts from different people. My phone is
Speaker 1: ringing off the hook right now. Look what is so important?
Speaker 1: I told everybody, Hey, I'm recording a Brooken Boys podcast.
Speaker 1: But obviously they don't want me to do this podcast
Speaker 1: for some reason. They're like, you know what, go another
Speaker 1: week without doing a podcast. So here's an old trick.
Speaker 1: When you're on hold with a company for a long time,
Speaker 1: and it happened again today. When you're on hold and
Speaker 1: like we'll wait with your momentarily, it calls very important,
Speaker 1: sit down on the toilet, start peeing. They will pick
Speaker 1: up almost every time. Oh yeah, it's like like like
Speaker 1: you're peeing right, like hello, So like you gotta hit
Speaker 1: the mute button, cut the stream off. So I try
Speaker 1: to remember to put it on mute when I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go to the bathroom because I know they're gonna pick up.
Speaker 1: They're absolutely gonna pick up. That's that's the way the
Speaker 1: world works. But that's not horoscopes. That's just that's just
Speaker 1: bad luck. Yeah, it really is. All right, well, we'll
Speaker 1: can wrap that conversation up because I think we're gonna
Speaker 1: have people that are really piste off at us. All right,
Speaker 1: so we play some sound. We should change the subject
Speaker 1: for that. I have a little bit of a surprise.
Speaker 1: Oh little surprised will throw throw a little wrench in
Speaker 1: the works here. Okay, I didn't we didn't plan this,
Speaker 1: Well you didn't plan this, But who's on the phone,
Speaker 1: say hi to my other podcast? Host Cheryl, what are
Speaker 1: you doing? What's up? Well, I'm doing a podcast and
Speaker 1: my boy, he didn't mention, he was putting more on.
Speaker 1: That's terrific, you know, because we're kind of like, you know,
Speaker 1: we're kind of like work together, but we don't work together. Right.
Speaker 1: We got these two podcasts with Mr Terry Jones over here,
Speaker 1: and we never get to talk anymore if you're familiar,
Speaker 1: But everyone listening and watching the Speaking Volumes podcast with
Speaker 1: Share and Scary, where we you know, we talk about
Speaker 1: lifestyle and uh fun pop culture things as well. Um,
Speaker 1: but you know, it's not just every day that I say,
Speaker 1: let's do a little cross promote here, but today's a
Speaker 1: special day. And I shared Brody, do you hear how
Speaker 1: giddy Share is. She's got so much excitement in her voice,
Speaker 1: and they give you a backstory before you tell everybody
Speaker 1: why she's excited. I remembered earlier, earlier, today, I remembered
Speaker 1: that Share had a reason to be excited, and I
Speaker 1: texted her, I said, hey, can you remind me the details?
Speaker 1: I want to help promote it. You got a big
Speaker 1: day coming up. She was like, how did you even remember?
Speaker 1: How don't you remember that? And I said, well, unlike

Speaker 1: We've been texting all day today. Yeah, we've been texting
Speaker 1: all day. You have been Honestly, I haven't even gotten
Speaker 1: a chance to see Brody in forever because do you

Speaker 1: you about my friend, our friend, Anthony Roda, who is
Speaker 1: on our podcast. Now. I un uncovered something big, uncork
Speaker 1: something I may have I may have unleashed the kracking.
Speaker 1: There's something big is going on, and I gotta tell
Speaker 1: you about that. So the first thing I have here
Speaker 1: is bad seventies DJ okay. So everybody, by the way,
Speaker 1: I posted on our Instagram on my Instagram at David
Speaker 1: Brody the commercial of Oh My Right the monoclonal antibodies
Speaker 1: right what she calls her aunt. Oh my. When you
Speaker 1: see the commercial at David Brodie, it's even worse to
Speaker 1: hear it because she hangs up on her aunt. She
Speaker 1: goes for a run on the beach with her dog.
Speaker 1: She didn't give a shit about her aunt. Her aunt's dead,
Speaker 1: her aunt is you watched the commercial. There's no way
Speaker 1: the aunt's gonna call her doctor anyway. People were commenting
Speaker 1: how much not only they love that, but they love
Speaker 1: oh my, and they and they love um Katie, Katie,
Speaker 1: Babs Katie, I gotta request that, says, we gotta do
Speaker 1: that every show. Yeah, so okay, So, uh you know,
Speaker 1: I've talked about having satellite radio in my car, and
Speaker 1: I was flipping around, as they call it, the channels,
Speaker 1: and uh, if you, if you, if you go to
Speaker 1: like channel five, it's the fifties. Channel six is the sixties,
Speaker 1: seven and seventies, eighties and eighties, nine is the nineties
Speaker 1: and whatever. So here and and I hit on channel
Speaker 1: seven for the seventies al right now. I like seventies
Speaker 1: music occasionally, so I stopped to listen for a second.
Speaker 1: And this guy, I want you, he's making a joke. Okay,
Speaker 1: he makes the joke, and then then he kind of
Speaker 1: like takes credit for the joke, as if he just
Speaker 1: made a brilliant joke. So I want you to hear
Speaker 1: the clip and tell me what the funk he's talking
Speaker 1: about made up? Okay, hold on, stop? Oh wait wait
Speaker 1: wait wait wait. First of all, we mean to tell
Speaker 1: the audience this. Yeah, most of the most of the
Speaker 1: people on this channel and all the rest are voice tracked.
Speaker 1: They are they are prerecorded, which also means this guy
Speaker 1: had a chance to do this all over and he
Speaker 1: chose to say, you know what, fuck it, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: play it. That's terrible if I did that, Because I
Speaker 1: can understand if if you're live and some it comes
Speaker 1: out wrong and it doesn't make any sense, you go
Speaker 1: with it. But unless that was live, and a lot
Speaker 1: of them are not, most of them, I can't. I
Speaker 1: can't promise you that that wasn't live. But of the
Speaker 1: stuff that they do or voice tracked me, and they
Speaker 1: do it way in advance, right, That means this guy
Speaker 1: thought that that was awesome and he left it that way. No,
Speaker 1: and then he followed it up with I just came
Speaker 1: up with that like top of my head, I got
Speaker 1: I gotta hear that again. Serious seven by Manlode that up.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. But you know what, and it wasn't
Speaker 1: a Jennifer Lopez song. He had no reason to mention
Speaker 1: Jennival Lopez fanolo of Janolo and j Lo. You know
Speaker 1: what he did, j Lo ja and oh like Manilo,
Speaker 1: you're a fan of Barry Manilo. You're that, we know.
Speaker 1: But if you're a Jannalo, you're a fan of Jennival
Speaker 1: Lopez and Barry Manlo. Right, but he was going into
Speaker 1: a Barry Manilow song. By the way, he hit the post,
Speaker 1: so he gets a point for that. Well, you know
Speaker 1: why I hit the post. By the way, hitting the
Speaker 1: post means you stopped talking at the exact second the
Speaker 1: lyrics start. That's like a big accomplishment in radio. That's
Speaker 1: but if you're live, it's an accomplishment. If you're pre
Speaker 1: recording it, you just lay your voice down when you
Speaker 1: line it up, line it up with the track. So
Speaker 1: that okay. So now so you have the the other
Speaker 1: clip of um Nirvana, I want to play that next.
Speaker 1: I do not I have I don't see Nirvana. I
Speaker 1: see David Cross Yeah, David Cross. Okay, I love David Cross.
Speaker 1: David Cross is one of the funniest people on television.
Speaker 1: He was on Arrested Development, The Man Show, Brilliant, brilliant,
Speaker 1: funny man. Okay, he did The Man Show. It Bob
Speaker 1: oden Kirk, who we we've talked about. He was in
Speaker 1: the movie Nobody. Recently, David Cross got fucked by somebody
Speaker 1: on this countdown show for Amorial Day weekend. So, and
Speaker 1: what's what's doesn't make any sense to me is he
Speaker 1: gets the song wrong, but it's all prerecorded, right, So
Speaker 1: what happens is you go into a studio. You don't
Speaker 1: sit there for six hours. When the music counts down,
Speaker 1: you go in, you record all the intros, you record everything,
Speaker 1: and then somebody in post production assembles it all later
Speaker 1: they all shuffle it together. So you go and you go.
Speaker 1: That was number one, one hundred, Hey, that was number
Speaker 1: seventy five, coming up a number fifty. Right, It's like
Speaker 1: the VJs and MTV. They don't stand there and watch
Speaker 1: the videos. They record all the intros and outros and
Speaker 1: then so many places and in there mind blown today
Speaker 1: years old when you learned that. So I'm gonna play
Speaker 1: this for you. I'm gonna rip it apart, and then
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why it's even worse. So here's
Speaker 1: David Cross. You guys all know the song that's playing.
Speaker 1: Listen to the song he says it is, and then
Speaker 1: listen to the song, and then what he says about
Speaker 1: that song and where he thinks it should have been
Speaker 1: in the countdown. So he's backtracking Song A hundred third
Speaker 1: eye Blind. Hey, I'm comedian actor David Kross. He probably
Speaker 1: know me as Tobias from Arrested Development or not. This
Speaker 1: is Lithium's listener voted top one under countdown all Memorial
Speaker 1: Day weekend. We're going to be doing this. That was
Speaker 1: smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana, number one hundred. I
Speaker 1: would have I would have put them a little higher,
Speaker 1: but you guys voted, and this is what you had
Speaker 1: to say. And I'm interested to see what's number one.
Speaker 1: I thought that would be number one, but somebody took
Speaker 1: the track in the wrong place. No no, well here's
Speaker 1: no no, no, they didn't put the track in the
Speaker 1: wrong place, so they told him or whatever the case.
Speaker 1: He says, that was song a hundred smells like Team Spirit, right,
Speaker 1: did they play the wrong song? Well, let me let
Speaker 1: me get to this. So then he says, God, now
Speaker 1: that this is the Alt Countdown, all alt rock, so
Speaker 1: being in its alt rock, he goes, wow, number a hundred.
Speaker 1: I would have thought smells like teen Spirit would have
Speaker 1: been number one. Huh, but you guys voted, so what
Speaker 1: do I know? Right? So I kept listening to the
Speaker 1: countdown about twenty five minutes later because he didn't do
Speaker 1: a lot of intros. A lot of times they'll just
Speaker 1: have a sweeper where like the voice goes seventy six
Speaker 1: and then and nobody intows it right because the guy
Speaker 1: hosting the countdown really only talks about like twenties songs
Speaker 1: out of a hundred. The rest of them, they give
Speaker 1: me the impression he's there and they go that was
Speaker 1: you know, here's whatever this whatever song is, right, it's
Speaker 1: just a way of them piecing it all together somewhere
Speaker 1: around like song seventy He goes, hey, I just want
Speaker 1: to correct something I've been told that. Uh I said
Speaker 1: it was Nirvana, but it was Third Eye Blind. Uh,
Speaker 1: sorry about that something like that. He made like an apology, right, right, Nirvana,
Speaker 1: that's very good. I see the number one song on
Speaker 1: the countdown actually was smells like teen Spirit. But here's
Speaker 1: the thing, it's not live, right, And so he says
Speaker 1: that was smells like teen Spirit, but it wasn't. Then
Speaker 1: later on in the countdown he says, hey, I just
Speaker 1: want to correct myself. I said it was smells like
Speaker 1: teen Spirit, but it was semi chalm life by third
Speaker 1: Eye Blind. So did they go in and make him
Speaker 1: re record the change? Like? I don't understand. If it's
Speaker 1: not live, that's it's live. Somebody would have told him, hey, man,
Speaker 1: it's live. You messed. You knew about the error. Then
Speaker 1: why did they just delete that track and just play
Speaker 1: one of those numbers? Why did they even have to
Speaker 1: have him? They're saying the wrong thing to begin with.
Speaker 1: If it was prerecorded, Yeah, Brodie, that's weird. I can't
Speaker 1: figure that out. All right, all right, let's play the
Speaker 1: next audio clip. What do you have? I have a narcoleptic?
Speaker 1: Oh okay, So on the on the radio today on
Speaker 1: the other strad morning show, you did you were talking
Speaker 1: about narcleptic, but you did not say narcoleptic, narcolepsy. Nope,
Speaker 1: what did I say? Play the clip? Narc electric or
Speaker 1: something you said narcolectic be an arc electric or something?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, eclectic. You know I meant narcoleptic. I know
Speaker 1: what you meant. I just was like for you, I
Speaker 1: love it. I love it when Brodie Brodie stands there
Speaker 1: with a bullhorn amplifying it. Every mistake. For it was
Speaker 1: one mistake. I never I would never make like two
Speaker 1: mistakes and point out two mistakes. It was one. Play
Speaker 1: the clip, the have the elephant clip? Will you play
Speaker 1: you have the elephantlip? All right? So now on the
Speaker 1: fifty minute Morning Show podcast, you prove to me that
Speaker 1: you don't listen to this podcast because you made a mistake.
Speaker 1: We always talk about I should have said, I want
Speaker 1: to tell you, right, I should have said no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: play the clip, not that I would have a point
Speaker 1: out two of your mistakes. But go ahead. You're you're
Speaker 1: about to point out three elephant in the room or
Speaker 1: it's actually not at the pound gorilla, or no, it's
Speaker 1: also the elephant in the corner, elephant in the room
Speaker 1: or Okay. So the expression is like, what is the thing,
Speaker 1: the big obvious thing we're not addressing, right, We're not
Speaker 1: talking about the gorilla or the elephant in the room
Speaker 1: a pink elephant. We've talked about this when you're drunk
Speaker 1: is when you're drunk, you hallucinate and you see a
Speaker 1: pink elephant. It's a cliche like, oh seeing pink. All right,
Speaker 1: So I got that wrong. But you've heard, we've talked
Speaker 1: about it on the podcast. But you wouldn't point out
Speaker 1: three of my errors in a row. No, I would never.
Speaker 1: That's why we're going to take it to this next
Speaker 1: clip where he corrects me. Yeah, here we go. No,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. All right, So me and my Brooklyn friends
Speaker 1: we do this bok. I know it's my Brooklyn friends
Speaker 1: and I. But here's the thing. I don't get, like,
Speaker 1: you speak really well, but every time you talk about
Speaker 1: your Brooklyn friends on the air, you say me and
Speaker 1: my Brooklyn friends. It's the only time you do that.
Speaker 1: So that's three in a row. Now you have a
Speaker 1: fourth clip. What else you're gonna correct? No, No, that's it.
Speaker 1: I wasn't correcting you. I just wanted to know why
Speaker 1: the only time you make that mistake is when you
Speaker 1: say me and my Brooklyn friends. Is that because you're
Speaker 1: trying to Brooklyn? Probably? All right? I remember, as I said,
Speaker 1: on the other this morning, A classic line, I speak
Speaker 1: common man. Well yeah, clearly, yeah? What else he got there?
Speaker 1: I gotta got a couple more clips. That's all I have.
Speaker 1: I have those five. Oh know what? Nothing else? That
Speaker 1: is all I do. Have a commercial break, so we'll
Speaker 1: be right back after this. We could say that you
Speaker 1: want to say that, all right, I did you just did? Okay,
Speaker 1: great podcast, and Rody, I'm sitting here with well hold
Speaker 1: on to remind myself of this. I have four pistachio nuts. Okay,
Speaker 1: um sitting in front of me. Were they in the couch?
Speaker 1: What do you find four postessio nuts? This is a
Speaker 1: reminder for me tell the podcast, to tell everybody listening
Speaker 1: to the podcast, all the slices. Do not pie pistachio
Speaker 1: nuts in the shell? Why? Because there's always several of them?
Speaker 1: Oh that are that? You know? How? You have to
Speaker 1: you have to peel the like they have the two edges.
Speaker 1: They have no openings. There's no openings. It's just I
Speaker 1: have four whole nuts. So I have to actually hit
Speaker 1: him with a hammer to open them up to get
Speaker 1: the statos out of them. No, you don't. You put
Speaker 1: them between your teeth, your back teeth with the crease
Speaker 1: up and down the tep of the crease. You need
Speaker 1: right now is a trip to the dentist this week,
Speaker 1: you big wos. Seriously, but anyway, get the shelled pistachios.
Speaker 1: You can't get the shell because then you eat them
Speaker 1: like like a gavone. You eat them like and the
Speaker 1: bag is gone. You need the shells to slow you
Speaker 1: down the ones in the shell. First of all, you
Speaker 1: gotta take it. You have to have long enough nails
Speaker 1: on your thumbs to take your two thumbs and pry
Speaker 1: open the shells. No, you don't. You use the No,
Speaker 1: you don't. You use the soft party of thumbs and
Speaker 1: you push them outward. You can, then you push them out.
Speaker 1: You don't use your nails. I would think you're an animal.
Speaker 1: I would think that the free dessert person in you
Speaker 1: Brody would agree with me. You go back four, you
Speaker 1: buy them. You buy them by weight, so the shells way. Yes,
Speaker 1: if you if you're weighing your stats, come on, and
Speaker 1: you do at certain stores. If I'm weighing the pistachios,
Speaker 1: then if it's pure pistachio, then I get all pistachio.
Speaker 1: I'm paying just for pistachio, but I'm paying for pistachio
Speaker 1: and shells. If I weigh a pistachio, it's a no
Speaker 1: win situation. And then you get a handful of them
Speaker 1: like this that are closed. What the hell do you
Speaker 1: have to work out it for? I'd rather take handfuls
Speaker 1: of it and you shove them down my throat. I
Speaker 1: would hope a lot of our slices are yelling at
Speaker 1: their phones right now. You realize the price of unshelled
Speaker 1: pistachios is not the same price per pound as shelled
Speaker 1: pistachios with shells on them, not shelled shells. Okay, you don't.
Speaker 1: You don't pay the same price. It's like if you
Speaker 1: buy a t bone steak bone steak, you're paying for
Speaker 1: the bone, but that's factored in a ready to the price. Alright,
Speaker 1: So then I guess the challenges. Why don't we unshell
Speaker 1: up pistachio, weigh the shell and then way the pistachio,
Speaker 1: and see how much of a difference, how much of
Speaker 1: a difference it is, and see if you're getting a
Speaker 1: bigger bargain by buying the weighted pistachios by the shell
Speaker 1: with shells or shell lists I don't have that kind
Speaker 1: of time. You dude, You've got time to argue. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah with everybody. Come on, look at you. You have
Speaker 1: a store you're about to get into. Here. Before you
Speaker 1: do that, though, UM, I have to bring up one
Speaker 1: other thing. I gotta get to my Anthony Roda story.
Speaker 1: Yes do you think no? No, no, no, it's our thing.
Speaker 1: I have to Yeah, I'd like to know this. Okay,
Speaker 1: this is something that I mentioned on the Big Show. Um,
Speaker 1: but we didn't really dive into it. And I usually
Speaker 1: bring them up here on the podcast too. I was
Speaker 1: in North Carolina last weekend with my friends and we
Speaker 1: went out to a restaurant, and I want to know
Speaker 1: how you would handle this too, Brodie, because we didn't
Speaker 1: get your opinion on the air for some reason. Um,
Speaker 1: I was off last week. That's right, you took a
Speaker 1: personal week. Oh you don't even really, you don't even
Speaker 1: hear this. So I didn't hear. Importantly, you didn't get
Speaker 1: my opinion on the air because Elvis doesn't go to
Speaker 1: me all the time. So we were out of a
Speaker 1: restaurant in Charlotte, North Carolina, at a place called five
Speaker 1: Church or Fifth and Church, whatever the hell you know
Speaker 1: what the point is. At the end of the meal,
Speaker 1: the bill comes and we've all seen extra lines for
Speaker 1: extra tips, right, we've seen the whole there's a tip line,
Speaker 1: and then there's the captains to been all this, and dude,
Speaker 1: here's a new one ready kitchen tip. What there's a
Speaker 1: line for kitchen tip. So let's say the bill was
Speaker 1: a hundred bucks, and then you figure there's a line
Speaker 1: for tip. You'd put twenty dollars in traditionally, and then
Speaker 1: there's another line before it's his total, that's his kitchen tip.
Speaker 1: I'm like, turn to my friends, but what the fund
Speaker 1: is this pandemic? The kid no, no, because certain certain, no, No,
Speaker 1: that would be a built in charge. It'll say COVID
Speaker 1: charge because I've seen that on bills before, on a
Speaker 1: lot of bills, trying to say like help out the
Speaker 1: kitchen staff because times are tough. No, no, so they
Speaker 1: said to me. So I went over to the waitress.
Speaker 1: I said, hey, so what is this extra line for tip?
Speaker 1: What is the kitchen tip? And she goes, oh, that's
Speaker 1: a nod to the chef, a nod to the sucking
Speaker 1: chef gets a tip. Now chef gets apparently it's customary
Speaker 1: in Charlotte, or at least this restaurant and Charlotte, that
Speaker 1: if you eat the food and you love the food
Speaker 1: so much, that you should not only pay for great service,
Speaker 1: but you should also evaluate how great the food was,
Speaker 1: and you should tip the chef. How do you feel
Speaker 1: about that? Not tipping the chef to the chef the
Speaker 1: chef went to killinary school to make a full salary.
Speaker 1: The reason you tip the waitresses and waiters is because
Speaker 1: they're working for minimum like two dollars three dollars an hour,
Speaker 1: and you're paying them for good service. The chef usually food,
Speaker 1: they gets a salary, right, am, I wrong? No, he
Speaker 1: gets a sal is the salary. This is like putting, um,
Speaker 1: I guess money in the tip jar and the chef tip.
Speaker 1: But here, okay, here's the thing to wait. So so
Speaker 1: so she let me elaborate. She said, um. She continued
Speaker 1: to say, yeah, we don't split the front of the house,
Speaker 1: doesn't split the tips with the back of the house.
Speaker 1: So the people in the kitchen, meaning everyone from the
Speaker 1: people who wash the dishes and the chefs, the cookline
Speaker 1: and the sioux chef and everybody in there, the people
Speaker 1: with the fluorescent lights behind the doors. Do not get
Speaker 1: their tips. Ship do not have any tips that they get.
Speaker 1: They don't get a piece of what you. The waitresses
Speaker 1: and the bartenders, they don't get tipped out. They don't
Speaker 1: get tipped out at all. So this is their way
Speaker 1: of kind of making their way into your bill and
Speaker 1: and kind of raising their hand and be like hi
Speaker 1: us to hi. Oh well in that case, no, but
Speaker 1: I kind of figured that would be your answer. But
Speaker 1: I felt that so I said, you know what, I
Speaker 1: gotta give him twenty bucks. What why is you giving
Speaker 1: this chef twenty bucks? I don't know. It's a kitchen tip.
Speaker 1: I come over to the table and give you, like
Speaker 1: an a pair of teef to start off. I would
Speaker 1: have no, I would have looked. I would have looked
Speaker 1: stupid brody. It would have it just said. I would
Speaker 1: have put a slash there like a sucker. Never mind
Speaker 1: stupid different s I put Ship. I said, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe they'll whack up twenty between all them. There's probably
Speaker 1: twenty people back there. And what about the landlord tip?
Speaker 1: The guy who owns the building, he provided you an
Speaker 1: a door to come in, So you didn't give a
Speaker 1: landlord tip? No, you know, Brodie, I don't know. I
Speaker 1: just felt caught off guard. I don't know what to
Speaker 1: do next time. I'm gonna have to have it planned.
Speaker 1: Do you do? You tip the coach check girl, if
Speaker 1: you don't have a coat, you just walk up and
Speaker 1: five bucks. No, let's turn money around. But I ate
Speaker 1: the food because I can't take me to fucking steak dinner.
Speaker 1: But you give this the chef twenty bucks. The entire
Speaker 1: kitchen staff, they split it. So the guy who had
Speaker 1: to wash my plate, I mean, no, he has he
Speaker 1: has a job. He probably makes I listen, restaurants. I
Speaker 1: used to work in restaurants. I was telling my kids
Speaker 1: the other day. When I worked at Chuck E Cheese
Speaker 1: back in the day, I made three dollars and forty
Speaker 1: cents an hour. I got a raise to three dollars
Speaker 1: and forty five cents an hour. I thought it was
Speaker 1: the greatest thing ever. I went home told my parents.
Speaker 1: I was like, and then like you you bragged, right,
Speaker 1: because then like the three forty people, you're like, I
Speaker 1: make three five. So I get what it's like to
Speaker 1: get ship pay for working your ass off doing dishes.
Speaker 1: So this is uh a major I think to get
Speaker 1: the music ready. I think the music the music ready.
Speaker 1: I think that is that's a Southern hospitality, Stamboni. You
Speaker 1: know what I think. I'll tell you what I think.
Speaker 1: So So, I used to work in a shopping mall
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn King's Plaza, and there was there was a
Speaker 1: lot of people in that mall that wouldn't tip on
Speaker 1: larger parties, right, and so at the bottom of every
Speaker 1: menu it would say eighteen dollar tip added to parties
Speaker 1: of six or more. This way, like a waiter, a
Speaker 1: waitress busted their ass for like ten people. They wouldn't
Speaker 1: get stiffed on a tip, right. I had one guy
Speaker 1: tell me I got very upset, very upset. I was
Speaker 1: the manager at the time. He was throwing a fit
Speaker 1: in the middle of the dining room and he said,
Speaker 1: you know they were called He said the establishment was racist.
Speaker 1: I said, why is that? Why? What's the matter, sir?
Speaker 1: How can I help you? He said, you gave me
Speaker 1: this menu because because I'm black, you think we don't tip.
Speaker 1: And I said, nope, you can look every menu in
Speaker 1: the restaurant has it at the bottom. I said, terribly sorry,
Speaker 1: and I explained him. I said, look the kitchen staff,
Speaker 1: my half, my my front end staff. Our clientele is
Speaker 1: very mixed. But the point was he thought that there
Speaker 1: were different menus for different people. Okay, now I understand
Speaker 1: where he's coming from, because I think you got a
Speaker 1: different menu. I think a different receipt. I think you
Speaker 1: guys came in there like, hey, give me some of that.
Speaker 1: Those clams, give me some of that. You're like kiming
Speaker 1: them in your New York accent. So they the old
Speaker 1: bait and switch, and they gave me one. They gave
Speaker 1: they gave you the Yankee tip, the Northeastern that the northerner,
Speaker 1: the coming the guy coming from the big city, doesn't
Speaker 1: know any better. We're gonna North Carolina his ass, right,
Speaker 1: we didn't lose the war. Fuck you, right, And uh,
Speaker 1: I think they gave you the old Northeastern check where
Speaker 1: you go, Oh, I guess that's what they do down here.
Speaker 1: It's like when you go to Europe. You know what
Speaker 1: that the that is that? Yeah, that's not tax that,
Speaker 1: it's it's the it's the ante gratuity rights. The government.
Speaker 1: The government and insists that you put the VAT on
Speaker 1: there for tourists, right right, And then they and then
Speaker 1: they put the VAT on there and then they leave
Speaker 1: a tip line for you, right, and they put the
Speaker 1: vat is the tip, that is the tip, right, So
Speaker 1: they it's just a way of fooling people. You think
Speaker 1: that they they said, Hey, here's a bunch of Northerners
Speaker 1: coming in here, and maybe they'll pay the kitchen tip
Speaker 1: if we tell them too, because that's what we do here.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I have to look
Speaker 1: further into this. I will tell you. In all my
Speaker 1: years of eating, and you know that I eat a lot,
Speaker 1: I've never seen the words kitchen tip on a on
Speaker 1: a receipt. Maybe it's something new, and if it is,
Speaker 1: maybe we'll adapt. Maybe they don't pay their people in
Speaker 1: the kitchen properly, and I don't know why that's my problem,
Speaker 1: but I felt bad, so I gave him extra money.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I did whatever I know I got and
Speaker 1: Bony whatever, Brodie, you know, if it made someone's day,
Speaker 1: if you know now, you got scamboni. So I'll tell
Speaker 1: you another scamboni. I was watching an old episode of
Speaker 1: Um Big Bang Theory, one of the greatest shows of
Speaker 1: all time, and at the end of every episode of
Speaker 1: Big Bang Theory, UM the writer, creator of Big Bang
Speaker 1: Theory and Two and a Half Man and a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of other shows. I forget his name at the moment,
Speaker 1: don't tweet me. And uh so, what he would do
Speaker 1: is he would write a vanity card at the end,
Speaker 1: so it would say it would say like he would
Speaker 1: like ramble on for like ten minutes about something right,
Speaker 1: like like a couple of paragraphs of whatever he wanted
Speaker 1: a rant about. Some of them were funny and some
Speaker 1: of them were not funny, but they were always interesting
Speaker 1: to read. You'd pause your DVR, and uh you would
Speaker 1: you would look at what he wanted to say. So,
Speaker 1: since it was an old UM episode, I looked at
Speaker 1: this old vanity card that I had in a while,
Speaker 1: and it said he was talking about Belarus. Right. Belarus is,
Speaker 1: as you know, Chuck Laurie, Chuck Lori is a creator
Speaker 1: and writer. He was talking about UM a show in Belarus,
Speaker 1: which is a European country right next to Russia that
Speaker 1: has a TV show about a bunch of really smart
Speaker 1: scientists and a hot blonde girl who lives across the hall, right,
Speaker 1: and they're all nerds, and how what they do is
Speaker 1: they take word for word pretty much the script of
Speaker 1: episodes of Big Bank Theory and reenact them in I
Speaker 1: guess Russian dialect and act them out. And he can't
Speaker 1: do anything about it because the network is owned by
Speaker 1: the country, so you have to sue the country of Belarus.
Speaker 1: So the name of the show is The Theorists, like
Speaker 1: Big Bank Theory the Theorists. You can go on YouTube
Speaker 1: copy word for word, script for script episode pretty much
Speaker 1: like it's it's very close, and they can agree with
Speaker 1: it because there's no one to sue. You can't super
Speaker 1: you can't You're not gonna win, right, And so I
Speaker 1: went on YouTube and I watched this and it's it's
Speaker 1: hilarious because you're watching like fake Sheldon, right, and it's
Speaker 1: it's a blond dude and then a fake Penny and there,
Speaker 1: and I watched the first episode, and I watched the
Speaker 1: first episode of Big Bang on YouTube and it's it's
Speaker 1: they're doing the same jokes, right. I love it. Now.
Speaker 1: I wonder if there are other shows that have been
Speaker 1: recreated in other countries. Yeah, absolutely can't love Yeah, it
Speaker 1: happens all the time. So the reason I'm bringing this
Speaker 1: up is, you know, friend Anthony. Yes I do right
Speaker 1: now he does, Um he does characters based on his family. Yes,
Speaker 1: he does, and he does right and then don't. And
Speaker 1: it's a high pitch thing. It's like Anthony and it's
Speaker 1: very pitched up, and it is like an exaggerated big mouth.
Speaker 1: And he's become very it's a filter, right, it's become
Speaker 1: very famous doing this character. And it's pitched up. So
Speaker 1: it's not his real voice, right, his real voice is
Speaker 1: like he sounds like he's been on our podcast. He's like, hey,
Speaker 1: Anthony doing but he does. He's like, it's okay. So
Speaker 1: I'm in the car, and mostly in the car when
Speaker 1: I'm driving by myself, I would say I listened to
Speaker 1: the news and sports more than I listen to music.
Speaker 1: Depends on my mood, how fast I'm going on the turnpike.
Speaker 1: And so there's a commercial that runs. I Now, you
Speaker 1: know I'm in radio. I tune out the commercials a
Speaker 1: little bit because you know, I've heard them so many times, right,
Speaker 1: and uh so there's a commercial. I think it's a
Speaker 1: BMW and it's Anthony Roda. He's like, he's kind of
Speaker 1: you're gonna get cars to bring the car and I
Speaker 1: think him again and it sounds just like him, and
Speaker 1: it's a very funny commercial. Right, but after hearing it
Speaker 1: like nine or ten times and he's like, scary, is
Speaker 1: it okay? He's getting paid? So that hold on? So
Speaker 1: I I put up this this the video today the
Speaker 1: last night of the oh my commercial, and Anthony commented
Speaker 1: on it very funny, that was hilarious. So I said, hey, man,
Speaker 1: congratulations on your commercial. It's on all the time. So
Speaker 1: he DMS. He goes, what commercial? You know commercial? Bellaruse?
Speaker 1: They got belarouse, So he says, so, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: does a trademark nobody can do that? Well, somebody's doing it.
Speaker 1: He's like, well, you gotta tell me the commercial. So
Speaker 1: I don't remember the commercial, even though I've heard it
Speaker 1: a thousand times, right because I tuned it out because
Speaker 1: ripping off his entire act right now, I know Anthony.
Speaker 1: So I don't listen because I'm like, oh, that's my buddy, Anthony.
Speaker 1: I don't have to listen to the commercial. I've heard
Speaker 1: his routine. I like, so, I don't even know the
Speaker 1: product with shame on me, right, and I can't remember
Speaker 1: if it's on the sports channel w f A and
Speaker 1: in New York or the news channels. I listen to it.
Speaker 1: I wonder if he even has a case though, because
Speaker 1: he does that. Anyone can do a voice, no, okay,
Speaker 1: can't hold on it is. He told me his voice
Speaker 1: is trademarked. Now, when you hear commercials like here, like
Speaker 1: there's a commercial running now, it's some it's um Doc
Speaker 1: from Back to the Future Christopher Lloyd and mar and
Speaker 1: McFly right Michael J. Fox, And it says celebrity voices impersonated, right,
Speaker 1: but they don't tell you who it is. They never
Speaker 1: say like their names. They just go Doc Marty right,
Speaker 1: But that they don't it's like, you know, they don't
Speaker 1: actually like that stay. They kind of like they go
Speaker 1: to the edges, right, you know who it is, but
Speaker 1: they don't. It's not they're not trying to pretend it's
Speaker 1: Christopher Lloyd Michael J. Fox, but they're sort of like
Speaker 1: doing impressions of characters that maybe your sort of public domain.
Speaker 1: They didn't do that in this commercial, And it's not like, Okay,
Speaker 1: there's a difference if you pitched me up and you're like, Hi,
Speaker 1: how are you doing? Right? If you pitched me up
Speaker 1: and I'm just me talking now, and I go, hey,
Speaker 1: it's brilliant, scary. You just pitched me up. You could
Speaker 1: pitch yourself up. That's fine. But what Anthony does is
Speaker 1: he talks it like it is. Uh. He does a
Speaker 1: whole accent. He does a whole thing. Right, they're doing
Speaker 1: the exact same accent. They're not just pitching themselves up.
Speaker 1: They're doing his voices. But he doesn't own that he does.
Speaker 1: He copyrighted the I don't think you can chance just bugs.
Speaker 1: But I've heard I've heard Larry King do commercials on
Speaker 1: the radio, and then there was a Larry King impersonator
Speaker 1: that they wanted to. They say, they have to say
Speaker 1: so you don't think that they're endorsing. You wanted you
Speaker 1: to think that it's him. But I'm like, wait a second,
Speaker 1: that's Larry King. On no, wait, it's not. And you
Speaker 1: have to say the voices celebrity voices impersonated so that
Speaker 1: you don't think Larry King's endorsing. I will say this.
Speaker 1: He may have a point, but this is gonna be
Speaker 1: an uphill battle for him if he's going to try
Speaker 1: and pursue anything. Oh, I just wanted to. I'm just
Speaker 1: saying I uncovered this because I like the way that
Speaker 1: you were the bearer of bad news for him, and
Speaker 1: the fact the fact that I that I didn't know
Speaker 1: it wasn't him helps his case. Yes it does, Yes
Speaker 1: it does, but I'd like to see in a court
Speaker 1: of law it's hard. It's hard to prove that. Alright.
Speaker 1: So finally, Brody, let's talk about what what's what went
Speaker 1: on today and why this podcast went on the air
Speaker 1: so late. This is another another Brody know the chat
Speaker 1: pulling in. This is why you are Larry David. Because
Speaker 1: one thing I didn't deserve, it gets the next, he
Speaker 1: gets the next, and I just I got big, get screwed.
Speaker 1: That's what I got. Okay, So we told you how
Speaker 1: my router wasn't working properly. Right, So I call Verizon
Speaker 1: because I have a FiOS internet here and I've done
Speaker 1: all I you know, listen, I'm not one of these

Speaker 1: know all the reset buttons. I know you have to
Speaker 1: hold it in on plug it certain. There's certain things
Speaker 1: they tell you to do. Put a pin in the
Speaker 1: red thing and hold up a fifteen. Say I did
Speaker 1: all that. I couldn't get the router to work, which
Speaker 1: is why we didn't do the podcast. Okay, so I
Speaker 1: call Verizon and I get the we're experiencing delays. If
Speaker 1: you'd like you can speak to someone in a chat,
Speaker 1: we'll send you a text message, which they do immediately,
Speaker 1: which I didn't want it. I didn't want to do

Speaker 1: of buttons I'm not aware of. So they go, all right,
Speaker 1: enter your phone number, the whole thing. They say, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna re send the signal to your router. Please hold.
Speaker 1: Here comes that game. They go, We've resent the signal

Speaker 1: not been fixed. So I'm on hold now for fifty
Speaker 1: three minutes. Uh, they pick up and I get a
Speaker 1: part of another part of the world again. Other part
Speaker 1: of the world is on the phone with me, and
Speaker 1: uh I. I tell him what's going on, and he
Speaker 1: does the thing they all do. Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
Speaker 1: We realize how upsetting this must be for you, and
Speaker 1: we were terribly sorry. We know how difficult it can
Speaker 1: be not to have WiFi service. Can you please help me?
Speaker 1: Can you not do the thank you think everyone is

Speaker 1: he has me do that all the things again, right,
Speaker 1: all the things again, and none of it works. He goes,
Speaker 1: all right, I need to send me photographs of the router.
Speaker 1: So I send him photographs of the router. He sets
Speaker 1: me up like a link in a link to click
Speaker 1: where I can direct message him photographs. He says, oh,
Speaker 1: that router, that's the old router. I said, all right,
Speaker 1: well can I get the new router? Oh? The new routers?

Speaker 1: a month. Give me the give me the same router

Speaker 1: point six miles from your house. So I go to
Speaker 1: the store. There's two sales guys in there and two customers.
Speaker 1: So he says, hey, man, wait on, wait on the bench.
Speaker 1: No problem. So I'm waiting on the bench and the
Speaker 1: guy on the phone says to me, Uh, listen, I
Speaker 1: can't help you, only get you my supervisor. I said,
Speaker 1: it's about time I waited like twenty minutes. He's like
Speaker 1: hemming and hawing. He did the whole thing, like you know,
Speaker 1: the car dealer. The car salesman goes, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: talk to the manager for a better price. So he
Speaker 1: did the all I'm gonna go talk to my supervisor.
Speaker 1: So he puts me on hold, and he comes back
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes later. Yeah, my supervisor says, nothing he can do.
Speaker 1: That's bullshit. He put me on hold. He went to
Speaker 1: go like, you know, whack whack off a little bit
Speaker 1: or take a lenk. So he comes back. I go
Speaker 1: get me the supervisor. So supervisor gets on the phone

Speaker 1: fights because I let me know what you come up with. Okay,
Speaker 1: great with that. I see this mean, ornery looking couple,
Speaker 1: man and woman. He looks like just just a dirty, grubby,
Speaker 1: big guy right and his ugly woman with him. They

Speaker 1: I can see their trouble. And they were like they
Speaker 1: were nasty to the guy, completely nasty, like they didn't
Speaker 1: want to wait in line, they didn't care that I
Speaker 1: was next. They were rude to him like, well, you

Speaker 1: right right, because that that was right there, that was
Speaker 1: the uh the trigger right. Had there not been like
Speaker 1: fuse lit right, he might have may not have done.

Speaker 1: You know you know I'm holding the router in my hand,
Speaker 1: the whole box when new cables, he gave me new
Speaker 1: cables and desert don't go free dessert. So you know
Speaker 1: what my point is? Two things slices Number one. Sometimes
Speaker 1: don't take any crap on the phone right when they're
Speaker 1: gonna tell you it takes three days supervisor overnight and
Speaker 1: explain to them is unacceptable to wait three days for
Speaker 1: a new router. The world revolves on WiFi. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I gotta have it, and eventually they will go all right, fine,
Speaker 1: And sometimes you gotta look at that opportunity in life
Speaker 1: where you can be extra nice and get a little
Speaker 1: free dessert. So I did. I played both sides today.
Speaker 1: I played good cop and bad bad cop. But the
Speaker 1: good cop, let's face it, let's remember this. The good
Speaker 1: cop is what one you the free dessert in the
Speaker 1: end this time, not the bad Well no, I got
Speaker 1: free overnight shipping from bad copy. I got a little
Speaker 1: both sides. Your dogs are barking, my stomach is growling.
