I'm 41 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: not I'm fine. I mean there'll be a president and 42 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: then that my life will not really change much at all. 43 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't believe other than full you didn't 44 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: checking out the prop votes that were bettered against. What's that? 45 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: I voted against every prop but the Uber deal or 46 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: whatever they But as far as the taxes going up, 47 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: anything with tax going up, I voted, Yeah, Well, those 48 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: actually lost. We're gonna have increase in state taxes. Come come, 49 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: hell or high water, look came, and our taxes will 50 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: be right. So the property tax thing went up, I 51 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: think it was Prop fourteen was was green let the 52 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 1: property tax? I believe it was another one. I did 53 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,119 Speaker 1: see that California rejected um rent control and they did 54 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: reject no cash bail. That's it. Well, if the mortgage 55 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: thing went up, this is good because I can finally move. 56 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: I can convince my wife you get the hell out 57 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: of here and go to a place where they actually 58 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: respect their citizens and don't gouge them with taxes. So 59 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: that could be a good thing. Is it would be 60 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: a short term pain for the long term gain. Yeah, 61 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: but what I mean California is what one and a 62 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: quarter percent of your property value assessed value? Uh? Well, 63 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: I haven't read. I don't know what you're talking. I 64 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: didn't see the guideline that I knew. One of the 65 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: props was they would raise the property taxes tremendously. Um 66 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: And I don't know if that's the one you're referring 67 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: to or if that is something else. No, No, I've 68 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: just been in general. Are are general state tax for property? 69 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: I think it's one in a quarter percent or at 70 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: least enough. But they had the thing that was, you know, 71 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 1: my father, because they bought the house a long time ago, 72 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: their property taxes have stayed flat. Yeah, they're protected. They're 73 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: protected depending on when they got into the house. They're protected. 74 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: And you can obviously transfer that if you're in a 75 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: trust too, which is nice. But if you're not, and 76 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: then you transfer that title from you know, your parents 77 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: name to somebody else, than they immediately immediately get reassessed 78 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: to a new value and they get hit with that 79 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: property tax rate. That trust is the way to go. 80 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: That trust things the way to go. Yeah, it's best fit. 81 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: You can obviously protect everybody that's underneath that that trust. 82 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: At the same time, like God forbid, someone does have 83 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: something bad happened to him. You got it. All in paper, 84 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: and the attorneys just divvy everything up according to the 85 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: trust and that's it. You don't have to worry about 86 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: a will and a power of attorney and everything else 87 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: that comes into play. Nice to be a trust fund, baby. 88 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: That would be good to be a trust fund baby. 89 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: Man man, But what would you do though? I like, 90 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: you'd have to work, you'd have to do something, especially 91 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: in the pandemic. That's how I'm wired. But it'd be 92 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: nice to not feel the pressure of you have a 93 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: bad show. You're like, I'm losing my job and lose 94 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: my house and you know that whole thing. That'd be 95 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: nice to not have to deal with that. I don't 96 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: think you're under that kind of a risk. No, I don't. 97 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, probably not. But I'm just saying, like, 98 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,239 Speaker 1: it'd be nice to have, you know, go on vacation. 99 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: It's like, all right, we have money now to go wherever. 100 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: You know, we don't have to you know what I'm saying. 101 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: You feel you feel me? I do. I do. I 102 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: just don't know how you actually spend your money. So 103 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: it's a little bit different from from my my standpoint, 104 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: like what do you spend your money on? It well, 105 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: I'm spending on my mortgage, I spending on my car insurance, 106 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: cell phone, car payment, cell phone, no cable, Internet, no cable, 107 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: we don't have cable. Certainly not spending it on gas anymore. 108 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,239 Speaker 1: What are you getting at there? You're not driving anymore. 109 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: To drive on the weekends, you probably save I would 110 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: imagine you probably save anywhere from two to four dollars 111 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: a month now and gas. Uh yeah, it's probably it 112 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: depends on the price of gas. But I was spending 113 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: because you get what like thirty eight miles to the 114 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: gallon in your car maybe I used to. Now I 115 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: get like thirty three or something, but I used to 116 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: get that. Uh. I you know, I would say I 117 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: would spend like to fifty a month minimum probably on 118 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: gas I have to fill up. Yeah, so yeah, because 119 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: we drive a lot on the weekend. So it's like 120 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: during the week it was like five hundred miles um 121 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: a week, and so it would be getting a tank 122 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: like every filming the tank up every like eight or 123 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: nine days would see you fill it up. Like yeah, 124 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: maybe not that much, and maybe it was like going 125 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: around two hundred not to fifty, but it was a lot, 126 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: and the price of gas is fluctuated, going up and down. 127 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: Especially in California. We pay about a dollar tax on 128 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: every gallon that you purchased, right, adding gas tax, and 129 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: and then an extra ten cents if you use your 130 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: debit or credit card. You know, one thing I would 131 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: like to mention with these stupid propositions. The last election, 132 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: the voters in California voted to get rid of daylight 133 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: savings time. Yes, and nothing's happened with that, So what 134 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: the fuck? What's the point of voting for it if 135 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: you're not gonna do it. I don't know. It's extremely frustrating. No, 136 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: because if California got rid of daylight savings time, then 137 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: that the entire like West Coast would be. They'd have 138 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: to do it right, because yes, all of those states 139 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: on the West coast, Arizona doesn't observe daylight second, good 140 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: for them, that's a good job by them, you know. 141 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: And Nevada because of Vegas. Whatever time California is on, 142 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: because they want those l A dollars flowing into Vegas, 143 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: they're not they're gonna keep. At the same time, they're 144 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: not gonna you know, they're gonna model that after after 145 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: the California model. So oh yeah, Nevada and Arizona are 146 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: coming closer and closer to California as we speak. So yeah, 147 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: well there'll be a big earthquake. Everyone will be out 148 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: in the open. Be all right, I get my life preserver, 149 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: I'll be Okay. Were you at least excited for the 150 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: election to take place and see how much of a 151 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: turnout we had? Um, I'm I'm excited. I mean, then 152 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: I guess I only it's gonna change that much. I mean, 153 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: I guess if Biden ultimately is the president, I'll have 154 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: to you know, stay stay in more and uh, you know, 155 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: I'll be in lockdown and it'll be a police state 156 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: and all that. But uh, and I don't think he's 157 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: gonna change that. I mean, it would just be annoying 158 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: on a different different kind of annoying, right, you know 159 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like, So I'm like, I'm not really 160 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: I'm not as worked up as some people are worked 161 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: up into a ladder like I I'd like to think 162 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: Trump is gonna find a way to win, But if 163 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: he doesn't, that's fine, I mean, and that means I 164 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: guess he can run in four right, he can come 165 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: back and be president four years later, and imagine that. 166 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: I'm actually think it's crazy. Now, imagine if he ran 167 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: again four years from now. I wouldn't want him to 168 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want no, I think, I mean I wouldn't. 169 00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want Biden to run anyway if I was 170 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: a a hardcore Democrat. Well, the only problem over the 171 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: age thing, because Trump he's seventy four, seventy eight, and 172 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: that's well how old is Biden? So yeah, I mean 173 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: that's and Biden seems like he's way too old to 174 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 1: be president. So that would be a problem. Yeah, you 175 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: just want to Trump loses like Biden lost his fastball. 176 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: He's he was a very sharp well you like him 177 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: or not, he was a sharp politician for years. I 178 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: mean he was, he was on his game. He's not anymore. 179 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: He's a shell of what he had been. I guess 180 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. But is Trump gonna be like, is 181 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: he gonna have that same cognitive decline over the next 182 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: four years or is he gonna still You know, some 183 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: people keep their fastball right up until the end. Yeah, 184 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: very few, but some people do to their last breath. 185 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 1: Still got their fastball. I was at least excited to 186 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: see the amount of turnout that we we saw across 187 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: across the land, like people actually in person voting, and yeah, 188 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: you're talking about think districts and the representatives and the 189 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: and the councilman um, the representatives across the state of 190 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: California everywhere. I mean, it was It's good to see 191 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: that kind of drama. That's really good TV in my opinion. 192 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: Although you ultimately love to have a decision on said 193 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 1: day as opposed to dragging the shift out, but you know, 194 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: this stuff is gonna go right to the Supreme Court 195 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: and we won't probably get a decision until December. I think. Well, 196 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: one thing I would like to mention though, is I 197 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: did get a kick out of the political pundits is 198 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: the night went later and later and they started bitching 199 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: and complaining because they had to stay up all night. 200 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: And it reminded me of when the trade deadlines would 201 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: be at midnight, and we like Rachel Nichols complained so 202 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: much and a couple other media people in the NBA. 203 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: They used to have the NBA trade deadline. It was 204 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: like midnight Eastern, which was great for us, or the 205 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: free of the start of free agency would be at midnight. 206 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: It was awesome because we'd be on the radio and 207 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: stuff would be trick coming in all night long. We 208 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: get woe Jan Shams, bombs bombing runs in the middle 209 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: of the night. And then you know these elitist like 210 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: Rachel Nichols and these people complained, and so the NBA 211 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 1: cow towing, get your fine, you know, taking a knee, genuflecting, 212 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: I should say to the to the media, they moved 213 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 1: it to like the afternoon. Yeah, and the politically, we 214 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: we we should have a deadline. You're new to announce 215 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 1: the winner for the White House, but you know ten 216 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: o'clock at night or something like that. Well, there's two 217 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: guys like Chris Cuomo for CNN and Bill Hemmer for Fox. 218 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: Those two guys they had I don't know how they felt, 219 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 1: but they looked like they had a ton of juice 220 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 1: left in them. Like I went to bed, I think 221 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: the night of the election, went to bed at two AM, 222 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: maybe three. And those guys are still up. Those guys 223 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: are still rocking. And that's on the East Coast. You 224 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: think possibly they might have had some ambient Maybe Hember 225 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: City took a forty five minute nap because they had 226 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: to do a show the next day, and then Cuomo 227 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: the same thing too. Like those guys, those but I'm 228 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: not gonna give them like a gold star. That's their gig, 229 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: this is their super Yeah. I mean, if you're a 230 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: political pundit like Cuomo and Emmer and these guys, and 231 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: your job is to deal with politics, and this is 232 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: this is what you live for you. I mean, how 233 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 1: many how many people who are in political media would 234 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: give their left testicle to be on election night anchoring 235 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: election night coverage? Oh yeah, it's it's great, especially because 236 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: if you're on the West Coast and you're in some 237 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: of those battleground states that all all the attention, like 238 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 1: the microscope is on you. So if you're in Arizona, 239 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: if you're in Nevada, if you're in parts like that, 240 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, like everything of the Republic 241 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: is now on here. If you're a beat reporter like that, 242 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: more often than I you don't get that kind of coverage, 243 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, once a year or once 244 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: every four years, you did. Yeah, So we'll see what 245 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: happens with the election stuff. I as I told you, 246 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: guess I believe that this will drag on like whoever 247 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: we maybe they've already announced the winner by the time 248 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: we're doing this. I don't know, because we recorded this 249 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 1: a few days ago. But to me doesn't matter. I give. 250 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: If you know, Trump were to win, the Biden people 251 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: would sue Trump's already suit, so you know that's that's 252 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: already So it's going to be decided by the court system. 253 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: And I don't even know how that all works, because 254 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: you know, what's the chain of command on that, what's 255 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: the the social order? And does it go to a 256 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,719 Speaker 1: Senate vote? Like how do they determine it's supposed to 257 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: be the vote of the people. So it's a very 258 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: convoluted situation. I just I'd like to think they will 259 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: have that decided by the end of the year. I 260 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 1: just I don't get, for the life of me, how 261 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: I could walk into a polling center and cast my 262 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: vote and all they asked me to do is identify 263 00:13:54,760 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: my name and my birthday. That's it. Well, you think 264 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: they should like fingerprints or something. Well, I think they 265 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: should at least identify me. You know, you know this, 266 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: we pay up the wazoo for all kinds of bullshit 267 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: in California, and now that includes mostly everyone here in 268 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: the state has to pay for a new identification carter 269 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: driver's license. So if you have a passport, you're safe, 270 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: but they want you to get a new driver's license 271 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: to use that when you fly across the country. Oh yeah, 272 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: I had to get a new driver's license yet, So 273 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: you're paying that money. Where does it go? Like why 274 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: can't it be used in situations like this for voter 275 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: identification when you're at the ballot box. Yeah yeah. When 276 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: they make the counter argument it's racial profiling and all. Yeah, 277 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if, I don't know where that comes from, 278 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: but they put it out there, and not everyone has 279 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: an idea. I mean, I got I. I have a 280 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: valid driver's license and I have to carry it with 281 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: me when I drive. I have valid vehicle insurance. I 282 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: have to carry that with me if I drive. If 283 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: I don't have those with me, then I get a ticket. 284 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: I get to fix it ticket. I it fine for that, Like, 285 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: how how does that not? I can't board a plane 286 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: without an identification card? No, listen, I hear you. Um. 287 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: And then other people have said they should streamline the 288 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: election process. But I don't think that's a good night. 289 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: It's a it's a big country. Every states rights. I 290 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: would like to see the states get get off the toilet, 291 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: you know, stop sitting there. Like Florida screwed up their 292 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: election in two thousand and they were the most efficient state. 293 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: They had that thing nailed down Florida very very fast, 294 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: compared to some of these other states which are taken forever. 295 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: So I saw a great tweet you that night. Uh, 296 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: one of these girls that was on Twitter. She said, 297 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: So let me get this straight. Vegas and Nevada have 298 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: no problems with partying and gambling and dancing and doing 299 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: drugs all night and into the morning time. But god forbid, 300 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: you can't count votes into the middle of the night. No. 301 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: I know these people. It's like it's like Cinderella. They 302 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: turned into a pump midnight. They can't do it, cannot work. 303 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: They don't have the all night jeans. They just they're 304 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: not workhorses. They're not. All right, we gotta get to 305 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: a gascon now. But that ends the political portion of 306 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: the podcast. But now that's the third round, my mom, 307 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:18,479 Speaker 1: that's the third round, alright. So big rig Benny, big 308 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: rig Benny. Another example of the difference between myself and 309 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: David Gascon. So Monday, I had an emergency Mallard meet 310 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: and greet, an emergency Mallard meet and greet. Now, if 311 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: you don't follow me on social media, you probably don't 312 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: know about this. But if you do follow me on 313 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: Facebook or Instagram, chances are you saw photographic evidence. And 314 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: as the late great radio icon. At one point when 315 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: I was early in my career, the most listened to 316 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: person in radio, Paul Harvey would say, Now for the 317 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: rest of the store. So I pressed the flesh with Mallard, Militia, 318 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: bring a dear general, moving man Matt, right out of Boston, 319 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 1: Right out of Boston, hanging out with moving man Matt. 320 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 1: So how did this happen? All right, I will walk 321 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 1: you through. I'm gonna hold your hand, and I'm explained 322 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 1: to you like you're you're in kindergarten. Alright. So, first 323 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: of all, Matt, who he had informed us, he called 324 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: into the show over the last couple of weeks and 325 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: he said, list I'm on my way to California. He 326 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: stopped off in Colorado. He had he was at the 327 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: restaurant in the snow there where they had the Mallard 328 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: maneuver in outside Danver, about seventy miles outside Denver. So 329 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: he did that. He's stopped and had the full Mallard 330 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: food tour a couple of times. Anyway, so Matt reached 331 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,239 Speaker 1: out on the show and then he emailed me and 332 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: we started playing email ping pong. We went back and forth. 333 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: There maybe email racquetball, however you want to call it. Um. 334 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: So I have a steadfast rule where I called it 335 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: the Doc mic because I cannot give out my number 336 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: to a list Now. A few of the listeners have 337 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: been grandfathered in and have my number from years ago. 338 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: But Doc Mike wounded for everybody. That fiasco with Doc 339 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: Mike when Doc was one of my guys in Chicago 340 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: and he said, I'm going to jail for two years. 341 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: You gotta I gotta be able to get ahold of 342 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: you want to get out. And so of course the 343 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: dummy that I am gave him my number, and I said, Doc, 344 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: listen giving you my number. I don't want you to 345 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: call me until you get out, and then I want 346 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: you to lose my number. Yep, absolutely no problem. You 347 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: can trust me. Guy calls me four days a week, 348 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 1: four days a week. It's been twenty years since he 349 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 1: had his little escapades there. So anyway, so back to 350 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: the story. So moving man matt Uh, he sent me 351 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: a couple of dates. He's gonna be in California, in 352 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: southern California, moving people around the country. So he had 353 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: a couple of dates and the one that worked out 354 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: the plan and it's aligning is Andrea the sports sorceress 355 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:08,880 Speaker 1: would say, was Monday afternoon. So I made the pilgrimage 356 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: out to Ontario, California. Right off the ten Freeway, I 357 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 1: cruised into a place gascon would never be seen, at 358 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: the Petro truck stop right off I tend there, one 359 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: of the great truck stops in California. And I pulled 360 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: into the parking lot and they had gas ganiall be 361 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,239 Speaker 1: happy to know. They had a Popeye's Chicken, they had 362 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 1: a Burger King. There was an Iron Skillet, but that 363 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: was closed to a big travel store there and a 364 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: huge as big as you can possibly imagine parking lot 365 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: with nothing but these monster eighteen wheeler trucks. I'm talking hundreds. 366 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: I didn't count, but it seemed like hundreds of these 367 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: trucks just sleeping in the in the parking lot. So 368 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: so anyway, I get in there. And there's two parts 369 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: of this. There's the parking lot where you can park 370 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: like regular cars, and then there's the actual truck parking lot. 371 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: So I was in the mallarmobile, so I parked in 372 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: the regular parking lot. So then I'm like, well, I 373 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: I can't talk to you know, my guy moving man, 374 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: Matt on the phone. So I'm like, all right, so 375 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: I emailed him, got right back to me. I'll come 376 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: see it. So he ran over and uh, he said hello, 377 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 1: and he had his partner in crime with him, Louis. 378 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: Louis is a ferocious French bulldog. Uh. That is his 379 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: travel companion on the on the road and it's pretty cool, 380 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: says Louise only has to stop, like, you know, a 381 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: couple of times a day to do the poop and 382 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: the school and so anyway, so, uh, Matt came over 383 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 1: and we we were like hey, whatever, and he's like hey, uh. 384 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 1: He says, I want you to pull the Mallard maneuver. 385 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: This is the second part of the story. So he says. 386 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: Matt's like, hey, listen, why don't you you go over here, 387 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: We'll do the Mallard maneuver. So I was like, I 388 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: don't know, okay. Uh So he says, go around out 389 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 1: of the parking lot you're in and where the normal 390 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: civilians are, and then you make a left and then 391 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: another left, and I want you to go into the 392 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 1: big rig parking lot. Um. So I'm like, okay, you 393 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Whatever, you must know the way 394 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: this works. You your truck driver, you're in the you 395 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: know you're here, You've stopped here before. So so this 396 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: is a metered parking lot. David's me the parking lot. 397 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: The first two hours are free. So I I take 398 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: the Malawabile to the back gate there and I'm just 399 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: to paint you a picture here, a word picture. I'm 400 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: driving a normal car the mallon Wibile. You know, it's 401 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 1: normal sedan, it's nothing outraged on eighteen wheeler. So as 402 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: I'm pulling around a lot, I am surrounded by these 403 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: giant trucks behind in front of me. I get to 404 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: the gate, I make the left turn. I get to 405 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: the gate at the Petro the truck parking lot. It 406 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: is designed there's you know those those when you go 407 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: into a paid parking lot, the gate comes up and 408 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 1: comes down. So it's designed for eighteen heelers. So I 409 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: have to I have to stop my car, I have 410 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: to physically get out of the car reach up to 411 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: grab the ticket because it's so high, because it's designed 412 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: for you know, in a truck, you're much higher than 413 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: a car obviously. So so then I had an epiphany 414 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 1: and I realized that I could simply just cruise under 415 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: the gate without getting touched by the arm bar. That 416 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: that thing was so high to stop trucks from going 417 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 1: in like like that would actually stop a truck. That 418 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: I could just drive under it and not didn't have 419 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: to get a ticket, but I did. I took a ticket, 420 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: and I cruised around, and Matt told me exactly where 421 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: he was, and so I found I found his rig. Right, 422 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: Moving Man Matt found his rig there, told me where 423 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: to meet him. And then the final thing here the 424 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: main event. So moving Man Matt, he says, I'm gonna 425 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: pull the rig away from the trailer that he was 426 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: hauling with all the moving stuff. He said, so I 427 00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: could see in person the fur first ever mobile moving 428 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: billboard for the Mallar Militia. Guess Scott. He pulled that 429 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: rig away from that trailer, and it was like seeing 430 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: the Mona Lisa. It was like seeing the Hope diamond. 431 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: It was looking at Michael Angelo painting the ceiling at 432 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: the Sistine champell. Uh. It was goose bumps. It was breathtaking. 433 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 1: It was extraordinary there it was right in front of 434 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,479 Speaker 1: me in all its glory. I had seen photos of it, 435 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: but here I was face to face, eye to eye, 436 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: belly to belly. With the hashtag Mallard Militia. It was 437 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: a religious like experience. Guests, guy, it was did you 438 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: guys hold hands and cuddle and share a glass of wine? 439 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: You know, we we we might have hugged it out. 440 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: You might might have hugged it out. It was a 441 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: very emotional situation there, as you know, and beautiful. It's 442 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: just beautiful. My God, great job and you'll be happy 443 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: to know that. Uh. As we were chatting, and I've 444 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,439 Speaker 1: met moving man mat before. He came to the Mathern 445 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: Meet and great the great twenty nineteen Boston Meet and 446 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: greet at the Casking Flagging on a cold night across 447 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: from Finway in April of twenty nineteen.

So I've met 449 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: him before and so so that was one of the 450 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: reasons I was willing to meet him again. But he 451 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: did inform me he would like to punch Doc Mike 452 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 1: in the face because of the number debacle and how 453 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: much more difficult it was to get ahold of me. Uh. 454 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: And he's also not a fan of Gascon how about that? 455 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: Not a fan of Mr West of the four oh five. 456 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: And he wanted a piece of Gascott. He wanted to 457 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: give you the business, is what he wanted. Yeah, how encouraging. Yeah, 458 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: so it once you to know, uh, And he didn't. 459 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: He educated me a little bit on the truck the 460 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: trucker lifestyle, he informed me. And I didn't know this. 461 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: Have you ever heard of a lot lizards? A lot lizards? Now, yes, 462 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: I didn't either. I didn't know what he said. He's 463 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: all stay away from the lot lizards or something like that. 464 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: I forget exactly what he said or something like that. 465 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,719 Speaker 1: And so, what are you talking about? And so then 466 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 1: he told me about this. There's this documentary. Um, it's 467 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: a few years old. I'm actually gonna try to find it. 468 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: It's like four years old, and it is a documentary 469 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: about truck stop sex workers. Yeah, and it's like there's 470 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: three million truck drivers. There's thousands of truck stops throughout 471 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 1: the United States, and many of them are frequented by 472 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: whorse drivers referred to as lot lizards. And Matt was 473 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: telling me that that I don't want to disparage that 474 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: truck stop, but apparently back in the day, I don't 475 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,360 Speaker 1: know if it's still the case, that was a legendary 476 00:25:54,480 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: spot for a lot lizards to do their business. Apparently 477 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 1: the truck drivers very open to that. And uh yeah, 478 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: very very open to that. And there's the money to 479 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: be made there. You do a Google search on lot lizard, 480 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: the first thing that comes up is what does a 481 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: lot lizard mean? And then it goes what makes a 482 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: good truck stop? That's good, that's good. So and I 483 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: don't want to speak for prostitutes, but I would think 484 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: if you're a prostitute, this is like, you know, you know, 485 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 1: I think it would be difficult. You're walking the streets 486 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: waiting for somebody to, you know, pull up to your car. 487 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: But if you go to where the customers are right, 488 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: if you're you know, why not, that's very efficient. And 489 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: the best part is is you're not worried about a 490 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: small car, that's true, yes, yes, And and Matt was 491 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: telling me that the you could tell the guys that 492 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: had the lot lizards because they would most of the 493 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: guys would back their truck in so you could see 494 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: inside the rig. But if they parked against the wall, 495 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: that meant they were doing the hanky panky in the 496 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: truck right there because they want anybody to see it. 497 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: So and it was like, I think I would have 498 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: been a pretty good truck driver and maybe that'll be 499 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: my fallback if this whole thing doesn't work out with Radio, 500 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: if they get rid of me. But you know, you 501 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: buy yourself a lot. You know, these guys actually make 502 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: pretty good money. I mean, my guy Matt is hustling. 503 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: He's got a bunch of kids, and he's you know, 504 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: he's supporting the hell out of his family, and he's 505 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: on the road twenty five twenty days out of the month. 506 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 1: He's home for like ten days at the most, and 507 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: he's back on the road and he's making the cash. 508 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: Though he's probably gonna clear more than I make, uh 509 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: this year driving the truck. So there you go. Guess 510 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: you want to get out of Radio guest and you 511 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: want to make the real money.

To all the longshoreman. 515 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: It's hard to get in on that though. Well, I 516 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: actually no right now if they're getting a ton of work, 517 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,880 Speaker 1: even the casuals are getting out.

But overall, I would say I've been 649 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: very pleased with the last year, and they've been We've 650 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: had two big f ups where we had the situation 651 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,439 Speaker 1: at work where I did not make it in time 652 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,919 Speaker 1: and ship the pants and I had to do a show, 653 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: which was awkward. And then the famous story from a 654 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,320 Speaker 1: couple of months back when I was walking and I 655 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: couldn't make it to the bathroom. And then I finally 656 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 1: made it and I tried to squat I made it 657 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: a squatty potty in the uh the commode, you know whatever, 658 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: the toilet and or like what do they call it 659 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 1: the can in Canada, the powder room. They call the 660 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: can the powder room. And uh, I missed my mark 661 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 1: there and turned the outhouse into a ship house and 662 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: uh yeah, good times. Fried food is your enemy, right, 663 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: like fried food. Once fried food is still eat fried No, 664 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 1: I mean, but like once you ingest fried food, you're 665 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: on the clock. It doesn't always work that way. It 666 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 1: is weird because when I, you know, I eat back 667 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 1: to back days during the week, you know, I eat 668 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,760 Speaker 1: like in kind of pods, right, so when I eat 669 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: every day, it does not has affect me, It does 670 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: not infect my body as much. But when I don't, Yeah, 671 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: the spicier of the fried food, it just kicks my 672 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: intestines ass. It's brutal, very uncomfortable. I'm happy that you've 673 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: lived past that one year thank you anniversary. Not that inconvenient. 674 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: There are worse problems to have. Yeah, it's a bit 675 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: of a nuisance from time to time. But the way 676 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 1: I look at it, it just it empowers me to 677 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: not eat much because when I eat, I occasionally have 678 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: these issues. So if I don't eat, then I don't 679 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: have to worry about I just drink water. That's good 680 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 1: and I'm good. So there you go there, alright, So 681 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: why don't we want to save the Sunday Podcast. Will 682 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: do some pop quiz on the Sunday Podcast. All right, 683 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: we'll do that on Sunday.
