Speaker 1: Start a dot up. Start up. Brooklyn Boys start up,
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Boys start dot up. They make it noise, dot up,
Speaker 1: dot Up. Episode one, The Brooklyn Boys and making some noise.
Speaker 1: It's the podcast of the Brooklyn Boys. It's us, we're here.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I think all we do is make noise and
Speaker 1: not a whole lot of sense. I walked away from
Speaker 1: last week's podcast scratching my head and I'm like, did
Speaker 1: we really did we make any points? Did we make
Speaker 1: anyone laugh this week? I don't know. These are the
Speaker 1: things I can't sleep on. I usually do the podcast
Speaker 1: and then I go to bed after we upload it.
Speaker 1: It's usually like later at night on a Wednesday, right
Speaker 1: on a Wednesday, and I and I just I always
Speaker 1: like lay there for the first fifteen minutes before I
Speaker 1: go to sleep, and I'm staring at the ceiling, like
Speaker 1: did we move the needle with our slices? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's funny because people will will tweet
Speaker 1: us and ask us questions about something from three episodes ago,
Speaker 1: like I'm calling upmselves behind, but what you said about cheese?
Speaker 1: I don't like, So just what we've talked about this
Speaker 1: you guys listen in order. By the way, we have
Speaker 1: not played any listening in order jingles in a while.
Speaker 1: We should have one ready for today. Have one of them,
Speaker 1: Pearl Jam, one of them. Yeah, we don't have them
Speaker 1: here at home, but I'll have to go get them. Suck,
Speaker 1: you have to bring him up. So, uh, when our
Speaker 1: podcast ends, right, we go baseball and the boys in
Speaker 1: Brooklyn ahead, yeah, and then we all right, I was great, okay,
Speaker 1: And Brody's usually off the mark because he's at home,
Speaker 1: and I want to address that in a minute. I
Speaker 1: want to address that because we've got some tweets about it,
Speaker 1: and so Scarce as I, I gotta just uh put
Speaker 1: this together and uh call me. Intendants will call up
Speaker 1: with a title. So I call him back. He goes,
Speaker 1: I'm writing a description what we talk about. Then I
Speaker 1: gotta go back and look at my notes, and well,
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of times when we finish
Speaker 1: after like seventy eight minutes, and I'm just wiped, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, what did we talk about? It's a roller
Speaker 1: coaster for us too, I know for you guys listening there, like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, they're all over the place. Yes we are.
Speaker 1: We're all over the map. We are all over the
Speaker 1: place where someone a listener wants did a flow chart.
Speaker 1: One of our favorite slices did a flow chart of
Speaker 1: what we talked about. And if you like to see
Speaker 1: the way this thing is Instagram, scroll back a year
Speaker 1: or so at David Brody. It's blue and orange. Of course,
Speaker 1: it's just the flow of conversation and how it goes
Speaker 1: and how we're always we sidetrack ourselves. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: do it because it would be we We can't do
Speaker 1: it in the moment. But you know, I like that
Speaker 1: that the the director's commentary On some DVDs, like back
Speaker 1: in the day, you could watch them and the director
Speaker 1: would go, what we were thinking here if you look
Speaker 1: at the dinosaur right and then you get like the commentary,
Speaker 1: so you know what the director was thinking. And they'll
Speaker 1: they'll stop and I'll go look behind looking on there
Speaker 1: on the wall. You may have missed this, and they
Speaker 1: give you the rundown. They narrate the movie that we
Speaker 1: we could narrate an app. You know what we could
Speaker 1: do what we can be open up a only fans page.
Speaker 1: By the way, the band, the band is temporary lifted.
Speaker 1: I heard about that you can. Actually you can actually
Speaker 1: upload porns. You could always could, but they were gonna Bandrenna, right,
Speaker 1: but now you can. Now you can upload porn again.
Speaker 1: They never was October. It was supposed to go away.
Speaker 1: Continue you did right as of now, they're not changing yet.
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's right, you can. So maybe we do
Speaker 1: like a director's cut where we listen to our episode
Speaker 1: and then we we chime in with that wasn't planned.
Speaker 1: That wasn't planned. I mean to say that, I didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't even say that catch that where I said
Speaker 1: that joking. Yeah, you know we've been tried. We've tried
Speaker 1: to be better with streamlining, right, I guess in recent episodes. No,
Speaker 1: we don't. Every time you and I sit down before
Speaker 1: we start, you say, Bright, we should really kind of
Speaker 1: structure this, and I think we should stay focused. I
Speaker 1: think was really just make a list of things we
Speaker 1: want to talk about and stick to the list. I go,
Speaker 1: that's not how we do we do now. I saw
Speaker 1: like a consultant. Sometimes radio consultants will do. No, don't ever,
Speaker 1: don't ever put me in that box. I never want
Speaker 1: to become that when you get a radio consultants, So
Speaker 1: so just pull back the curtain. Unless I'm on I'm
Speaker 1: on the balls of my ass and I wout a job,
Speaker 1: then then maybe a radio consultant, and I would be
Speaker 1: a radio consultant. Don't come in with charts and graphs
Speaker 1: and research and they go, um your your praying phone
Speaker 1: calls need to be three minutes and forty seven seconds.
Speaker 1: That is, we put it into a computer and optimally,
Speaker 1: we think we calculated um your Your entertainment segments should
Speaker 1: be no more than a minute and three point nine seconds,
Speaker 1: only doing two stories about singers and one story about
Speaker 1: an actor or actress and maybe a death. They're in
Speaker 1: a laboratory and they're mixing chemicals and things and they're
Speaker 1: like like they're Bunsen burners boiling. They test people either
Speaker 1: in a room or on a computer, but there's really
Speaker 1: no good way to test people as they're showering and
Speaker 1: shaving and getting dressed in the more in their car
Speaker 1: right or in their car because five things going on.
Speaker 1: So so if you listen to something, if you listen
Speaker 1: to a song in the car you're driving, bah bah,
Speaker 1: you're like, oh that was great. When you experience it
Speaker 1: in a different way, right, like that was a great song.
Speaker 1: Sit in a room alone and listen to a song
Speaker 1: where you're studying it, paying attention to the lyrics and
Speaker 1: deciding whether you like it. That song becomes nine minutes, right,
Speaker 1: or a praying phone call, or a news report or
Speaker 1: anything else. If you're alone and you're focused on it,
Speaker 1: it seems like forever, right, But you're on a roller coaster,
Speaker 1: you like, wow, it was like twenty seconds, like not
Speaker 1: a minute. If you're in a car, you're pulling up
Speaker 1: in the drive through, you got the kids crying in
Speaker 1: the back, someone's here, like, and you're you don't really
Speaker 1: you experience it in a different way and it goes faster.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do director's cut. Here's a freebie ready for
Speaker 1: What we're listening to now was not planned. It just
Speaker 1: came out of nowhere. It really like that. We did
Speaker 1: not play talk about that. It just happened. It just
Speaker 1: fell out of ours now speaking of me not sinking
Speaker 1: up at the end because I'm on us a little
Speaker 1: bit of it. We're gonna correct that really soon. You
Speaker 1: know how We're gonna get back to the fucking studio. Well,
Speaker 1: we'll see about that. So David Hugo h U G.
Speaker 1: E L He's uh Hollywood Hugo thirty one. Why am
Speaker 1: I excited for the Brooklyn Boys to one day get
Speaker 1: back in the studio together so David Brody can sync
Speaker 1: up with Scary Jones on their intro outro love you guys,
Speaker 1: and I left every time Scary says you're off again.
Speaker 1: That's right after I hear the echo on Brooklyn because
Speaker 1: you you hear we are on the way. And then
Speaker 1: Cappy kaplan Caplan Cappy. He says that goes double for
Speaker 1: free ship for us the jingle um and then David says,
Speaker 1: I was trying to figure out how to type Brooklyn
Speaker 1: and then Brooklyn and then yean for how it comes
Speaker 1: across but goodn't now, but yes, the free ship for us.
Speaker 1: Here's a little backstage. Had this been another podcast, we
Speaker 1: would have edited it, and I would have we would
Speaker 1: have SYNCD up the tracks to make sure right. But
Speaker 1: as you know, this is like a live to tape
Speaker 1: podcast where it just falls out of our mouths right
Speaker 1: on and you're hearing things is unedited. We don't l
Speaker 1: suggest I would suggest listening to last week's episode. I
Speaker 1: believe it was one ninety three, The Walk the Walkers
Speaker 1: and Talkers podcast because the way we end every episode
Speaker 1: is I say, Jamie, you know what time it is?
Speaker 1: She's what time is it? And I say it's time
Speaker 1: to shut that ship down, because that's a line from
Speaker 1: Megan from The Walking Dead where he says no excuses,
Speaker 1: I will shut that ship down, and we have shirts
Speaker 1: that say it. So that's how we end the podcast.
Speaker 1: So I say jam what time is it? She says
Speaker 1: what time is it? And I say it's time and
Speaker 1: we both say to shut that ship down. But I
Speaker 1: said she was it's time shut shut, shut to shit down.
Speaker 1: She's trying to time it based on what she hears
Speaker 1: and it's a train wreck every time perfect, And so
Speaker 1: I did. I say to her, don't worry, I'll edit that,
Speaker 1: I'll line it up. Don't wry about it. And I
Speaker 1: never do, of course, and then I then I leave
Speaker 1: the banter of heart telling me she's sorry. She's like,
Speaker 1: which is and I go, no, don't worry. We chopped
Speaker 1: this up. Make it something the same time. Whenever you
Speaker 1: say like, hey, edit edit that, edit that, I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: I'll edit it that later while you hear the whole thing.
Speaker 1: So even if you don't like The Walking Dead. And
Speaker 1: by the way, I think you should listen to the
Speaker 1: Walk as Doggies podcast because it's funny as shit. Um,
Speaker 1: but at least listen to the endings because Jamie Debt's
Speaker 1: probably trying to sync up and I just go, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll just I'll move it. Don't worry, I'll move it. Well,
Speaker 1: a couple of the housekeeping issues here. First of all, UM,
Speaker 1: to everybody who is hearing this episode right now who'll
Speaker 1: be living it up, who didn't have not listened to
Speaker 1: last three, can you please do us a favor and
Speaker 1: and help us catch up, catch yourself up because I
Speaker 1: know you didn't listen to the last three episodes. Well,
Speaker 1: how can they do that if they're listening to this
Speaker 1: one after this one's over, and then after this one's over,
Speaker 1: go back and do a double shot. You know, most
Speaker 1: likely they're up to two these I'm telling you there
Speaker 1: are people listening to this right now that have been
Speaker 1: skipping episodes. I hear you, I see you. Yeah, Well
Speaker 1: it's something's weird. Way, there's no way that you we
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make up numbers now, right, I'm I just
Speaker 1: go one through ten. There's no way. We can have
Speaker 1: episodes that have seven six, seven, three, nine, four, twelve,
Speaker 1: you know, listeners right right, listen, downloads, whatever. So either
Speaker 1: people are coming on and they're never listening again, but
Speaker 1: then like two weeks later, we have a huge spike.
Speaker 1: So the last couple of scari is convinced on a
Speaker 1: summer break, and that's what it is. I'm attributing it
Speaker 1: to people have different habits and attitudes. Right now, the
Speaker 1: theory doesn't work. No, well, well, hold on a second.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's we're coming to the end of summer,
Speaker 1: people trying to get their last licks in before fall.
Speaker 1: Before we do you think by nine they're gonna be
Speaker 1: back on. I think yeah, I think we're gonna have
Speaker 1: a strong one ninety. Okay, so when we do episode
Speaker 1: one ninety, we need to remind people you missed some
Speaker 1: great ship from five to seven. The other thing is,
Speaker 1: don't come looking for us next week because we are
Speaker 1: on vacation, which next week is well, if you're listening
Speaker 1: leaning into Labor Day, Yeah, labor we are off next
Speaker 1: week week of August. Opportunity catch up on the episode
Speaker 1: that was my follow up point, or just go back
Speaker 1: and listen to your favorites. Go back and listen to Dill,
Speaker 1: Go back and listen to the ups RNT. Go back
Speaker 1: and listen to me yelling about the garbage pay never
Speaker 1: they never get old. Go listen to me talking to
Speaker 1: Scary about Brooklyn industrial classics. And now while you're there,
Speaker 1: be inspired and go to our merch store. Brooklyn Boys dot,
Speaker 1: Big Cartel dot com. That's another Oh whoa yeah, don't
Speaker 1: even say the word dot's ahead. That's that's Brooklyn Boys dot,
Speaker 1: Big Cartel dot com. And now, now maybe some people
Speaker 1: are having trouble spelling the word cartel, but it's c
Speaker 1: A r t e L. If you thought it was
Speaker 1: k A r t u l, or if you didn't
Speaker 1: think that there were two dots in there, there are
Speaker 1: two dots. It's Brooklyn Boys dot. The way, it's commernity.
Speaker 1: It's commernity. What am I talking about? Stupid? The stupid
Speaker 1: name fights are just gave its vaccine. They took COVID
Speaker 1: and m R and A vaccines and um, something else
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Don't tweat me. I'm just drawing a blank
Speaker 1: right now. And they wanted to sound like community, and
Speaker 1: they're calling the Fiser vaccine is now commernity. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: a joke that nobody gets right. They're not they're not
Speaker 1: understanding it because they don't know what they don't know
Speaker 1: what m RNA is. Right, it's a type of vaccine
Speaker 1: which which is using proteins that build up antibodies. It
Speaker 1: doesn't use a life virus anyway. Blah blah blah. So
Speaker 1: that that that brilliant idea was like one guy was saying,
Speaker 1: I got an idea. Let's take the code from COVID,
Speaker 1: the murna from m r and A and and the
Speaker 1: itdy from whatever, yeah, and murder she wrote, and it
Speaker 1: we'll call it commernity. You know what her name was
Speaker 1: working really well, the Fiser vaccine that was working, that
Speaker 1: that one, that one right there. A hundred million people
Speaker 1: were like called it that you called it that, That's
Speaker 1: what it was. Now they're like, what's commernity? Is it tested?
Speaker 1: Is approved? Yeah? The mistake that's a marketing blunder, yeah,
Speaker 1: I would say so. Yeah. So anyway, so there's that
Speaker 1: just some housekeeping we had to you know, sweep up
Speaker 1: a little bit. We haven't really you know, talked about
Speaker 1: that stuff in a while. Um. We did um Alive
Speaker 1: broadcast last week from Jenkinson's Point, Pleasant Beach, where we
Speaker 1: were being the other Strand morning show, not the Brooklyn Boys. Correct, correct,
Speaker 1: although we may have some good Brooklyn Boys news where
Speaker 1: we may be able to all hang out soon in
Speaker 1: a couple of locations. We're working on there there in
Speaker 1: the pipeline. As we say an apologies to all the
Speaker 1: people that were there looking for Brody and Scary Scary
Speaker 1: and Brody because it was just scary. Yeah, I was.
Speaker 1: He was not at the Jenkins. I met a couple
Speaker 1: of slices. We took some pictures. It was great. I
Speaker 1: did I did you know, say I wish Brody was here.
Speaker 1: He was unable to be here. Yeah, for lack of
Speaker 1: being invited. Well it wasn't my invite, No, it was not. No,
Speaker 1: they were keeping the staff small and uh, They're like,
Speaker 1: you know, you don't have to come. I'm like, all right,
Speaker 1: it's fine. So it wasn't offended by it. It It was
Speaker 1: what it is. But it was because they were keeping
Speaker 1: the staff small, the stage small, and you know we
Speaker 1: are going to be doing some Brooklyn Boys. Hold on,
Speaker 1: they used my c fish on Mendez so showing you welcome. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then so yeah, so we will be doing Brooklyn
Speaker 1: Boys stuff coming. And by the way, it's not the
Speaker 1: Pike line. It's either coming down the pike or coming
Speaker 1: down the in the in the pipeline on the pipeline
Speaker 1: or pike, but not on the pipe, down on the
Speaker 1: pipe or pike, but not Pike line. That that's incorrect.
Speaker 1: It's price line not yes, ok, alright, So so I
Speaker 1: want to get into this, and I know you have
Speaker 1: some things that you want to bring up as well,
Speaker 1: and grammar police. I feel like you just grammar police
Speaker 1: a little bit. How how did you do that? The pikeline,
Speaker 1: the pikeline? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was a little lesson
Speaker 1: because someone said Pike line. Someone someone emailed about the
Speaker 1: Pike line, and I'm like, no, it's not the Pike line.
Speaker 1: All right, because I have some I'm ready for some
Speaker 1: grammar police when you tell me, we're ready, So you want,
Speaker 1: let's do a quick grammar police and then we um yeah,
Speaker 1: well yeah yeah, and then yeah, once again, this was
Speaker 1: not scripted. This was unplanned, and it sounds like a
Speaker 1: police It sounds like it was That's fine. I gotta
Speaker 1: look at my notes now with some of the other Yeah,
Speaker 1: go ahead, I gotta get the jingle. I gotta get
Speaker 1: I gotta get kick kids. Police is one more thing
Speaker 1: I was, you're off police. Yeah, people make mistakes. I
Speaker 1: called my cor insurance company, and again the woman said,
Speaker 1: then number you work at, you work at the insurance company.
Speaker 1: We have to retire some of these. We gotta hang
Speaker 1: We gotta lift jersey up from the rafters. Raptors. Rafters rafters, rafters,
Speaker 1: Raptors are from Oh, raptors are from Jurassic Park, a
Speaker 1: movie you promised our listeners you're gonna finally watch. I
Speaker 1: will so yeah. So some of them, like or vin
Speaker 1: An a t M. We should hang up and we
Speaker 1: should not even address anymore because they're just these keep
Speaker 1: coming up. We need new examples of grammar police. Okay,
Speaker 1: so h L So this was sent to me by
Speaker 1: uh Mike Sinhauer. I believe now it wasn't. It wasn't
Speaker 1: sent to me by Mike Senhauser. It was sent to
Speaker 1: me by Oh, dear God. I'm so sorry, um oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know who said that to me. I apologize.
Speaker 1: But there's a place in Texas called El Royo and
Speaker 1: people use it as a meme, and they put they
Speaker 1: make it look like a like a church sign with
Speaker 1: the white letter black letters on the white. I don't
Speaker 1: know if it designs real. It's photoshop. It's his irony
Speaker 1: is when someone writes, you're an idiot, why oh you are?
Speaker 1: Why oh you are right? And I find I when
Speaker 1: you when you were on political TikTok. That expression is
Speaker 1: used all the time, really, when you're yeah bye bye yes,
Speaker 1: how how so well. I don't want to stereotype, but
Speaker 1: some people who may lean on one side of political TikTok,
Speaker 1: when they insult you, they say you're an idiot, use
Speaker 1: a wrong yours. So somebody tagged me in this I
Speaker 1: apologize right. So then everybody who was posting was posting
Speaker 1: with deliberate bad grammar. So a guy named Mike wrote
Speaker 1: too funny t O but he did it deliberately. So
Speaker 1: then this girl I r E I c h L,
Speaker 1: I reach, I reach right, she wrote. She replied to
Speaker 1: him and wrote t O O question mark. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's just stupid. Right, So I wrote joke question mark
Speaker 1: and she wrote, um, no he was wrong or something
Speaker 1: and short for sure, And I wrote no, no, I
Speaker 1: was pointing out the other person was making a joke
Speaker 1: with the wrong two and didn't need to be corrected,
Speaker 1: And she wrote, I understand. What I want to know
Speaker 1: is why is this important to you? And I said,
Speaker 1: why was it important to you to correct the grammar
Speaker 1: of someone who's making an obvious joke on a bad
Speaker 1: grammar post? So that was, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 1: She's like, why do you do you care? You cared first,
Speaker 1: you corrected a guy on a bad grammar post, thinking
Speaker 1: you one up him, and it was it was deliberate.
Speaker 1: He deliberately wrote it wrongs. Oh my god. Okay, alright,
Speaker 1: so I I have one grammar police. Here's one. This
Speaker 1: is from um Phoenix Morrigan love the last line of
Speaker 1: this trucker drawing. Okay, first of all, it's a two parter.
Speaker 1: First of all, this is a sign. I don't know
Speaker 1: possibly how Remy Martin, a big brand of liquor, uh
Speaker 1: could get this wrong. But this person says, I don't
Speaker 1: this does not sound right. I can't decide if it's
Speaker 1: wrong or not. So Remy Martin has a it's a
Speaker 1: red sign and it's just says Remy Martin. One life period,
Speaker 1: Live them, period, so that's their slogan. It's just and
Speaker 1: actually it's professionally written, so they did it on purpose.
Speaker 1: Brodie Remy Martin, one life, Live them, Now, that would
Speaker 1: that would speak to the fact that you have several
Speaker 1: lives because it lives them, because otherwise you would say
Speaker 1: live it right or life go live them. Like to everybody,
Speaker 1: it still makes no sense. One life period, live them period.
Speaker 1: That's it. So if it was one life, live it,
Speaker 1: that should make sense. But the fact that it says
Speaker 1: them is throwing phoenix off. Live them. I don't think
Speaker 1: that works. I don't know. And then there's um a
Speaker 1: truck driver signing this was a poster somewhere and they
Speaker 1: screenshot at it, uh and basically it was just all
Speaker 1: these instructions on what to do at this place, and
Speaker 1: it says thank you for your patients at the end,
Speaker 1: where patients was spelled p A T I E N T. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that a patients one. All right, back to your grammar police.
Speaker 1: So Governor Cuomo of New York, right, but he's he'll
Speaker 1: always be governed a Cuomo. That's the way the title works.
Speaker 1: He stepped down, right, And so every article I read
Speaker 1: said he's stepping down Monday at midnight, Monday at midnight.
Speaker 1: The problem is he was stepping down at midnight Tuesday morning,
Speaker 1: midnight Tuesday, right. So I'm I'm writing a report Sunday, right,
Speaker 1: I'm writing report for Elvis, the local New York stories.
Speaker 1: So I want to be accurate as to when Governor
Speaker 1: Cuomo is stepping down. And every one of them says,
Speaker 1: first thing, Monday at midnight, Sunday night at midnight, No,
Speaker 1: it was, it was. It was Tuesday morning. So Monday nine,
Speaker 1: one minute later is when he resigned. So it was
Speaker 1: Tuesday at midnight. You understand what I'm saying. Midnight starts
Speaker 1: the next day. I know we think of it like, oh,
Speaker 1: tonight at midnight, I'm gonna go out, but it's technically
Speaker 1: the calendar. You look at your phone, look at your watch,
Speaker 1: the day switches. And that was a problem. Also, I
Speaker 1: don't know if this is a grammar police um as
Speaker 1: much as um it's a peeve, that's grammatically a problem. Scary.
Speaker 1: I was listening to a commercial on the radio, a
Speaker 1: DJ last week, a DJ I'm not gonna say who
Speaker 1: it is, and they were talking about how much they
Speaker 1: love this time of year because it's the return of
Speaker 1: pumpkin spice. And man, do I love pumpkin Oh? No,
Speaker 1: there's no. There's no fucking pumpkin in pumpkin spice. All
Speaker 1: pumpkin spices is cinnamon and things like that. Scary. Is
Speaker 1: there steak in steak sauce? No? Is there duck in
Speaker 1: duck sauce? Right, it's pumpkins spice because it's the spice
Speaker 1: you put on a pumpkin. Duck sauce is the sauce
Speaker 1: you put on a duck. Steak sauce is the sauce
Speaker 1: you put on a steak. Have you tasted pumpkin It
Speaker 1: tastes like glop. It's like you have pumpkin pie pie.
Speaker 1: There's pumpkin and pumpkin pie. But but the thing it's
Speaker 1: almost tasteless. The thing that makes pumpkin pie amazing is
Speaker 1: the stuff that's in it with it, the ingredients. So
Speaker 1: this guy is going on about I love pumpkin pie,
Speaker 1: I love pumpkin cheesecake. Oh, and pumpkin spice. Anything pumpkin,
Speaker 1: I'll eat it, except there's no pumpkin. Like many years ago,
Speaker 1: I heard someone say I can't pumpkin spice. I can't
Speaker 1: eat pumpkin, like, oh my god, oh my grammar police
Speaker 1: thing is, which is why it is. So that's like,
Speaker 1: that's like people the people who the same people who
Speaker 1: thought that the coronavirus was was made because of the
Speaker 1: Corona beer. Corona Beer gave you coronavirus. You got that
Speaker 1: audio clip for me? Yeah, we do right after this.
Speaker 1: All right, we're a clock, my friend. You have to
Speaker 1: edit where I talked over the bump. No, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'll do that, all right, thank you a long time.
Speaker 1: All right, So continuing the grammar police, I just want
Speaker 1: to I want to listen. I love the guy, um,
Speaker 1: but scary. You know when you see at the corner
Speaker 1: of your eye, right, yeah, that's your I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: say what it is because it may give away with
Speaker 1: the clips. So during a Mets game, uh, Gary Cohen's
Speaker 1: the first voice you'll hear, and and and Todd ziel
Speaker 1: who's a who's a former player. Played played for a
Speaker 1: lot of teams in baseball nine or ten, maybe seven
Speaker 1: or eight. You had a couple of classics for the Mets. Yeah,
Speaker 1: great guy, great player, very talented. He's usually in he's
Speaker 1: eating the studio for the postgame show. But he was
Speaker 1: filling in and I'm not picking on him, but we
Speaker 1: do a grammar police segment. So they were talking about
Speaker 1: the white line of the batter's box and in Dodger
Speaker 1: Stadium because somebody years ago was was distracted by the
Speaker 1: thick lines that go around the batter's box where you stand.
Speaker 1: They made them thinner. He has to make them thinner
Speaker 1: instead of talking about why are you looking down at
Speaker 1: the ground when you should be looking at the picture? Correct?

Speaker 1: be on the picture and it's a release point. Yeah,
Speaker 1: unless you've got the most amazing peripheral vision. I've heard that.
Speaker 1: I've heard that a lot. It's not peripheral. Again, unless
Speaker 1: you've got the most amazing peripheral vision. Not peripheral. It's
Speaker 1: never peripheral, but common mistake, peripheral, peripheral, peripheral, or you
Speaker 1: can talk about your periphery, the peripher free. It's it's
Speaker 1: either periphery or peripheral. But it's not peripheral. Right, it's
Speaker 1: even harder to say it it is. It is so
Speaker 1: all right, Um, we're done with ground and police for
Speaker 1: the moment. Yeah, so god. You know I was telling
Speaker 1: you teasing about the broadcast last week and then we

Speaker 1: the fun was. Um. We talked about this on the air.
Speaker 1: It became a topic. I was saving you for the
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Boys, but I'm like, this is too good not
Speaker 1: to give to the big show. And we talked about
Speaker 1: it a little bit. And I want your opinion because

Speaker 1: I mean the business, and I get I get tickets
Speaker 1: for me and for my wife to go to see
Speaker 1: thirty seconds to Mars unplugged, right, And it was mostly
Speaker 1: Jared Letto because it's just him on a guitar and chicks.
Speaker 1: And it wasn't all hot chicks. It was it was
Speaker 1: you know, kids that are like old kids, goth kids
Speaker 1: that were kids and not grown as men. Well, you know,
Speaker 1: it was ten years ago, so I was ten years younger,
Speaker 1: but I was still grown ass man whatever, and my
Speaker 1: wife looks a lot younger than she is at you know,
Speaker 1: And so we went. We were like old people, but
Speaker 1: we weren't young people whatever. And we got there early,
Speaker 1: and so they kept us waiting three hours outside in
Speaker 1: Harlem uptown in the heat. It was in the summer.
Speaker 1: That's how late it was before they let us in.
Speaker 1: They told us get there at like five o'clock whatever
Speaker 1: it was. So it was almost three hours before we
Speaker 1: got inside, right, And we go in and it's it's
Speaker 1: set up like a church. So there you probably go
Speaker 1: watch it online if you could see the episode. And
Speaker 1: this church pews two rows where everyone's sitting, so they
Speaker 1: seed everybody. They see us and they go, yeah, hang
Speaker 1: back right here, hang back with it right, okay. I'm like, okay, okay, fine,
Speaker 1: And they put everybody in their seats based on the
Speaker 1: and they put some people off to the side. We
Speaker 1: were we weren't in the front, we were maybe in
Speaker 1: the middle. So they were putting people like ten at
Speaker 1: a time in the room. Okay. So we get in
Speaker 1: the room and my wife and I are standing off
Speaker 1: to the side. We told it was over, it was
Speaker 1: always sold, and I said, look, we're industry people. Like,
Speaker 1: I this was I got these passes from so and

Speaker 1: he's pointing to people as if they're not human. He's like, oh,
Speaker 1: let's get these guys, let's switch out right here please,
Speaker 1: meaning like and there was a couple of overweight girls.
Speaker 1: He made him sit in the back and then and
Speaker 1: then he's like, do you guys know the lyrics? Yeah,
Speaker 1: well let me hear you. And he like he started
Speaker 1: singing and anyone who didn't know all the words, Yeah,
Speaker 1: these guys, let's go swit search them out. Literally, you're
Speaker 1: just you're just pawns on a set. You're just he
Speaker 1: just moving objects around. You're just an object to him.
Speaker 1: And you would think, because they're gonna film it for
Speaker 1: TV right right now, you would think scary. He would
Speaker 1: have a stage manager who would like, go, uh, fat girl,
Speaker 1: gotta move to the fact girl, get the girl out
Speaker 1: in the in the over like as terrible as that is,
Speaker 1: he did it himself. He stood there five ft in
Speaker 1: front of the people, going, can we can we swap
Speaker 1: out the front row and the half the left row,
Speaker 1: like like making it really obvious who he was moving
Speaker 1: and why right right, But he made it like they
Speaker 1: know the lyrics and then he's like, I need people
Speaker 1: who allowed you guys are loud enough, but he was trying.
Speaker 1: They were bringing hot people up to the front. Of course,
Speaker 1: what happened was the people in charge of seating well
Speaker 1: like you know, like a teenage volunteers, you know, people
Speaker 1: were They weren't like part of his road crew. So
Speaker 1: once they sat everybody, he then unsat them, yeah, musical
Speaker 1: chairs because he wanted to make sure that it looked
Speaker 1: right on for his camera. Almost an hour scary of this, right,
Speaker 1: they still didn't stall. My wife says to me, it's
Speaker 1: been four hours, let's just go. So we left. We
Speaker 1: didn't even wait because Jared Letto was having like a
Speaker 1: diva moment and we It's funny because we met Jared
Speaker 1: Letto up at the radio station years later. It couldn't
Speaker 1: have been the nicest guy couldn't been any nicer. Rather, well,
Speaker 1: it's all optics. You know, the same thing happened with
Speaker 1: me with SNL when I went to go taping of SNL.
Speaker 1: They put you on Sunday. You're not saying you're the
Speaker 1: dress rehearsal Sunday. There's the dress rehearsal, the live show,

Speaker 1: five chairs on the floor that every time they cut
Speaker 1: to somebody or whatever. Sometimes there's the people, the pretty
Speaker 1: people in the audience. Tell me the slovenly toothless guy.
Speaker 1: Never got there first, never got there early. It's only
Speaker 1: the young they literally looking people. Now, we were definitely, yeah,
Speaker 1: we were. They were casting us as we were walking
Speaker 1: into the room like nope, you two go over there.

Speaker 1: All I could see is that the dry wall from
Speaker 1: from the set, I can't even see the state right
Speaker 1: right about a fucking line of sight. But no, they
Speaker 1: do that. But but do they do it on a
Speaker 1: restaurant level. They, I absolutely believe they do. I did well.
Speaker 1: They do. We do. We have discussed. They do it
Speaker 1: in the clothing stores for people that they you know,
Speaker 1: there's a people that work in the front of house,
Speaker 1: and then then there's the heart of the house, the
Speaker 1: back of the house. Yeah, the the ugly people and
Speaker 1: the unattractive and the randoms you guys go go to.
Speaker 1: You guys are in the back of the stock room.

Speaker 1: that's what they call it. They call it door horse. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so there is a there is a pecking order. So
Speaker 1: I felt like bringing it back. Sushi, even sushi on
Speaker 1: a Thursday night we got put in the third room
Speaker 1: because I don't know we were we were definitely now
Speaker 1: were the front two rooms. Film We were profiled. This
Speaker 1: is this is profiling. I was profiled. Ugly lives matter,
Speaker 1: Yes they know. God oh man, Um, I had a
Speaker 1: conversation with a guy scary. If you were there, you
Speaker 1: would have had to hold me back the frustration level.
Speaker 1: So um, yeah, we're gonna get to that. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get to that. Yeah, right after this, sir, it's the
Speaker 1: Boys podcast. Okay, So um uh you you I've told
Speaker 1: you my mom's as a home in an adult community, right,
Speaker 1: And it's so it's it's just once you go in

Speaker 1: It's a massive property with a golf course and it's
Speaker 1: all winding roads. It's its own streets like everything. It's
Speaker 1: like a whole town by itself. Right, and there's um,
Speaker 1: there's a deli near the entrance, okay, and the Delhi

Speaker 1: I'm like, look, I'm not trying to I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to be difficult. Now. Look there was nobody in their cars.
Speaker 1: I would have asked them. Nobody was getting out of
Speaker 1: the cars. There was no one else. They were closing
Speaker 1: in five minutes, so the cars were probably only the employees, right,
Speaker 1: And the employees are all in the back cleaning up
Speaker 1: and this, I and this. So I'm like, please, I
Speaker 1: want to get in the parking lot next time. He's like, well,
Speaker 1: you just gotta go in the entrance. When you leave,

Speaker 1: to get in that fucking parking lot. Poor guy, poor guy,
Speaker 1: not not poor guy. By the way, his name is Paul.
Speaker 1: Fuck you, Paul you, Paul you. Paul boy, the Jersey boy,
Speaker 1: the Jersey kid. He has great tease theory. Is anyone

Speaker 1: he's time. Yeah, it's time. Was a problem. Um so
Speaker 1: um yeah, no, I mean I don't know, it's right there.
Speaker 1: Just go. It's just like that, when you pull out,
Speaker 1: you'll see it, you know. Um. I was with my
Speaker 1: friends the other night and I wanted to uh, And
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're like this? Are you like this?
Speaker 1: Are you you and your friends? Me and my friends?
Speaker 1: Know who? What them? One of these days you're gonna
Speaker 1: come out and you're gonna hang out with us. Yeah,
Speaker 1: as long as you don't say me and my friends,
Speaker 1: I might show my friends and I my friends and
Speaker 1: I I have to say goodbye to everybody in the room.
Speaker 1: I I and I mentioned this briefly on the Big Show,
Speaker 1: and I around the room. I'm the king of the
Speaker 1: long goodbye. Oh that's the Jewish goodbye? That did you right?
Speaker 1: Did Jewish goobye? Because as the Irish goodbye, it was
Speaker 1: where you just disappear. About where it might go? Right?
Speaker 1: But I can't and I don't know what it is.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be better at it because I feel
Speaker 1: like it'd be more efficient in life and I'd be
Speaker 1: able to hit my target and go. But if you're
Speaker 1: with a group of seven or eight people, and maybe
Speaker 1: you know your best friends with maybe two, and then
Speaker 1: there's a couple of close friends, and then there's a
Speaker 1: couple of acquaintances or people you just met for the
Speaker 1: first time because they're friends of friends, well, do you
Speaker 1: care about that them or you never see them? That's
Speaker 1: the thing. What's the cut off and saying goodbye to people?
Speaker 1: If let's just say you're at a bar, okay and
Speaker 1: you know there's people scattered around, I have to go
Speaker 1: over to everybody, shake hands, asia soon, take care of goodbye.
Speaker 1: You're like the mayor. I think what you gotta do
Speaker 1: is go your buddies. You go, hey, hey, Darren, Mike, Steve, Pete, guys, Bobby,
Speaker 1: Bobby making and Mike making my next weekend. Hey you guys,
Speaker 1: was great, a great time to night. Byebye. You give
Speaker 1: a group to the rest of them, you give the
Speaker 1: group wave. You go always so you do, you do
Speaker 1: personalized shake hands goodbye with your friends. Right, and then
Speaker 1: you tell you tell your best buddy, right, you tell it,
Speaker 1: you tell you tell Mike, you go, Mike. If I
Speaker 1: wasted anybody, just you know, tell my sig about I'll
Speaker 1: call you tomorrow. Yeah yeah, yeah, but you don't. You can't.
Speaker 1: So so with me, my my wife will tell me,
Speaker 1: like in the night, hey we're leaving at nine, Just
Speaker 1: be ready with leaving at nine, right, then she'll talking
Speaker 1: to me and go start saying goodbye, start start start
Speaker 1: because like like because you you need to wind up
Speaker 1: like I do. Like if it depends on where we are,
Speaker 1: So you do you are? You are a Jewish person
Speaker 1: who does the Jewish goodbye? Well that's what I have
Speaker 1: to Yeah, you show your wife's not Irish. I'm sure
Speaker 1: she's not. No, she just knows that I need the time, Okay,
Speaker 1: But but I do agree to sneak out. I think
Speaker 1: the cutoff there is definitely everybody else gets the wave.
Speaker 1: It's like yeah at some point, yeah, because I don't
Speaker 1: know who you are. I met you tonight, I'm not
Speaker 1: probably not gonna see you again, and then you're again.
Speaker 1: It depends on the mix. Like like, so my cousins
Speaker 1: have a Halloween party every year where the whole family goes.
Speaker 1: If I'm there, I gotta say goodbye everybody. But that's
Speaker 1: that's the problem. If you're trapped in a house and
Speaker 1: see a bar. Setting is a little bit more informal.
Speaker 1: But if you were invited to somebody's house and you're
Speaker 1: at a party at a house, now you're in a
Speaker 1: situation where not only do you have to say goodbye
Speaker 1: to the host, but if you have to walk past
Speaker 1: people to get to the door. You gotta say goodbye
Speaker 1: to everybody. Well, the other thing you can do is,
Speaker 1: let's say you're mingling right, you know you're leaving at nine.
Speaker 1: You can talk to you can talk to phil at
Speaker 1: like and go, hey, listen, I'm leaving. I'm leaving. I'm
Speaker 1: leaving within the next half hour or so, so I
Speaker 1: don't see you have a great night. So you don't.
Speaker 1: You don't have to go back to the double background.
Speaker 1: You let him know I'm going. I respect you as
Speaker 1: a human being. You're you know you're not You're not
Speaker 1: a dick. But you know I'm not coming back for you.
Speaker 1: I don't like you enough to come back at five
Speaker 1: to nine. He'll understand that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: And it's also out of the conversation. The other thing is,
Speaker 1: I don't want to be the guy who's lingering so
Speaker 1: long saying that I'm leaving, and then they they come
Speaker 1: out up to you like, dude, I don't you left
Speaker 1: a half hour? Are you gonna leave a half still here?
Speaker 1: Still there? Because what happens is if you go, if
Speaker 1: you go to your best friends first, now you're you're
Speaker 1: saying goodbye to the stragglers, your best friend's like, why
Speaker 1: you're still here? But if you think about the stragglers
Speaker 1: stragglers first, then they see you're like, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: now he's talking to his buddies. He fucking blew me off.
Speaker 1: So you can't do that either. If you go to
Speaker 1: the stragglers first, they're gonna hate you because now they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: he's said goodbye to me at seven thirty, still here
Speaker 1: at nine o'clock saying goodbye. But if you say to them, listen,

Speaker 1: It was great meat seeing you. You're good. Hey, hey,
Speaker 1: Matt's huh, let's go yeah, yeah, hey uh. Then you
Speaker 1: get you're fine, but you you gotta get you gotta
Speaker 1: make it quick. You once. It's a mixed company, but
Speaker 1: you don't owe them anything whatever That gets a bullus.
Speaker 1: Happened to me twice in the past week where I
Speaker 1: took me a half hour to get the funk out
Speaker 1: of there, once with my friends and then last week
Speaker 1: at the broadcast you weren't invited to with Jenkinson's. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they had. They had a party going all afternoon and
Speaker 1: and I just kept running into salespeople and I kept
Speaker 1: running into and worst if you don't say goodbye to
Speaker 1: them and then nobody notices, well if you go, hey, hey, Charlie.
Speaker 1: I didn't say a body of the thing. I feel bad.
Speaker 1: He was like, oh, well when did you leave? There
Speaker 1: is a right you're right, you're right. Well, yeah, that
Speaker 1: party I got drunk at. You know, we was the
Speaker 1: middle of the afternoon. I did some day drinking. Me
Speaker 1: and my girlfriend. We were there all afternoon, my girlfriend
Speaker 1: and I. We were there all afternoon because we were
Speaker 1: just given these drink tickets, like you know, the ones
Speaker 1: that they spit out for ski ball, like the raffle
Speaker 1: tickets instead of the pencil shopping are you went for
Speaker 1: the other which, by the way, um I could have
Speaker 1: I could have easily brought my own raffle. I could
Speaker 1: have brought a Staples unlimited free drink tickets all afternoon.
Speaker 1: Ski Ball maybe America's first or one of the first
Speaker 1: ever scambonies ski Ball ski Should I play the jingle
Speaker 1: that I accidentally played earlier? Sure? I played the Scambony
Speaker 1: Jingle Tour. Yeah, so you could you could hit the
Speaker 1: five fifty? Is no Google? Ski ball? You don't know
Speaker 1: what ski ball is? Come on now, for some people
Speaker 1: s k e ball. No, But just for people that doesn't,
Speaker 1: it's a it's an arcade game, or it's the kind
Speaker 1: of game if you're on a boardwalk or a pier
Speaker 1: where like you roll a brown wooden ball up up
Speaker 1: a ramp and then it goes into holes that have
Speaker 1: different point value. You've seen them, the circular rubber circular
Speaker 1: rubber things. Explain what football is next. Some people don't
Speaker 1: know what skill is, all right, I understand that, but
Speaker 1: just google ski ball anyway. The point of ski ball
Speaker 1: or any games where you get tickets. Right, Let's say
Speaker 1: if the claw game and every time, every time you
Speaker 1: hit your points you could get the perfect score. You
Speaker 1: could stand up at the top of the game and
Speaker 1: drop the ball in the top hole every time. You
Speaker 1: will never get the amount of tickets for the value
Speaker 1: of anything. So if if you get a hundred tickets,
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a toy that is not worth a dollar.
Speaker 1: That's just how it works. So if you and then
Speaker 1: to get those tickets, how much money do you have
Speaker 1: to pump into that machine? Whatever you spent. Let's say
Speaker 1: let's say you spend fifty cents right to play the game,
Speaker 1: usually a quarter, but let's say it's fifty cents a
Speaker 1: dollar whatever the rip off places charging you. Right, let's
Speaker 1: say you put in a cents. You can't get cents
Speaker 1: worth of tickets. It's when you go you and your girlfriend,
Speaker 1: like I got twenty three d tickets. Like do you
Speaker 1: want the pencil or the inflatable bat? I love those
Speaker 1: people by the ways, they're sitting there so proud they Honey,
Speaker 1: I want that ship for you. Yeah, okay, the Chinese
Speaker 1: finger trap or a stuff wood would pecker, that's jes
Speaker 1: You can have the plastic ring with the carrot on
Speaker 1: it and tell youybody have a one carrot ring. Or
Speaker 1: you can get the the butterfly, the plastic butterfly. Well,
Speaker 1: the one military man, you get the one army man.
Speaker 1: You're never know. It's fun for kids. I get it.
Speaker 1: But that's the bit that's oh my god, it's a scamboni.
Speaker 1: It's like to shoot the ball in the basketball hoop
Speaker 1: and then if you see an aerial shot, you see
Speaker 1: the rims are slightly oval. Yeah, and the ball doesn't
Speaker 1: go in it that it does off you put it
Speaker 1: like dead Center. We've talked about had an episode we
Speaker 1: were talking about ski body, so I speak, it's not
Speaker 1: a scam. But I saw a guy. It was such
Speaker 1: a slick move at the Verizon store. I want. I
Speaker 1: shook the guy's hand while I I fist bumped him
Speaker 1: because you know pandemic. Uh it was a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago, because my hand either. So anyway, so, um this,
Speaker 1: this guy next to me was returning his Verizon cable
Speaker 1: box and his Verizon remote. Okay, he had like two
Speaker 1: boxes too remotes. And a woman comes in and she says, hey, um,
Speaker 1: I lost I lost my remote. I need a new
Speaker 1: remote or it's though it says it's dead. My remote's dead.
Speaker 1: That's what it was, or something like that, and they go, well,
Speaker 1: it's whatever. I think it was like fifteen bucks. They
Speaker 1: got fifteen bucks for a new one. So the guy
Speaker 1: sitting next to me with the two cable boxes and
Speaker 1: two remotes, he excuse me, kind of trump for a second.
Speaker 1: So he says yeah. I says, let me ask you
Speaker 1: a question. I'm returning two cable boxes and two remotes.
Speaker 1: If one of my remotes doesn't work anymore, am I
Speaker 1: gonna get charged for that? So so the guy says no,
Speaker 1: because if you're handing it in. He goes, okay, great, honey,
Speaker 1: here you go, gives him his remote that works, and
Speaker 1: takes to prokeram him and totally hooked her up. Nice. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's good that we like, we love that move. That
Speaker 1: really was And then he did it without doing He's
Speaker 1: not trying to say that he hooked her up, No,
Speaker 1: he's just like, oh, I think he's like, that's my remote.
Speaker 1: He's remote winner. And the guy at the store didn't
Speaker 1: carries like, oh, good move, good move. He didn't care man,
Speaker 1: and the girl was like, oh, that's awesome. There are
Speaker 1: great people in this world. Yeah, so she got a
Speaker 1: remote because the guy was like, I'm just handing in
Speaker 1: my remote. Take mine a man. I love that. How
Speaker 1: was that for a smooth operator? Yeah, you missed your opportunity.
Speaker 1: I just said smooth operator. That was before the commercial though.
Speaker 1: I know you right, all right, chardon chardonnay, alright, commernity Shart.
Speaker 1: It sounds like something in your underwear. I have to
Speaker 1: tell you something, and I know you don't look. You
Speaker 1: know I'm pro vaccine, But if you told me, who're
Speaker 1: putting commernity in my arm? I might say no commercy. Commercy.
Speaker 1: That's how bad that name is. That's a terrible name.
Speaker 1: It's off like I'm all about it, but that's a
Speaker 1: terrible name. I just it's just terrible. So last week
Speaker 1: in the Northeast, we had a hurricane or hurricane sort
Speaker 1: of a tropical store. By the time it got to us,
Speaker 1: it was that is a terrible name. I understand it
Speaker 1: comes from the expelled H E N R I, but
Speaker 1: it's hey, you know something, we call it Henry if
Speaker 1: it destroys your house, fucking Henry. Somewhere in the somewhere
Speaker 1: in the Atlantic. It turned into a hurricane for a minute,
Speaker 1: but that's what captured the headlines. And then by the
Speaker 1: time it hit it was by the time it blew
Speaker 1: through what we were at the Jersey Shore and into
Speaker 1: the Northeast and there Connecticut Long Island, it was it
Speaker 1: became a tropical storm and then a depression. All right,
Speaker 1: So that's usually the way storms go. I had empty
Speaker 1: the water out of my pool. We got so many,
Speaker 1: did you really well? Yeah, like not the whole water,
Speaker 1: but uh so I would say I emptied out, oh boy,
Speaker 1: for about a foot of water. Yeah, so we have
Speaker 1: a wow. Okay, well this is what would Brody do for?
Speaker 1: Because I was stuck in a in a bit of
Speaker 1: a pickle, if you know what I mean, and a
Speaker 1: dill pickle, as long as the pickle wasn't stuck in you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well you know we've had that happened before. Not not mate,
Speaker 1: You tried to ask your own day, ask your own pickle.
Speaker 1: So so so so I was. I was planned. I
Speaker 1: had planned to go to the Jersey Shore for an
Speaker 1: extended weekend because we were going to be down there anyway.
Speaker 1: So I had booked, uh Friday night, Saturday night. Now
Speaker 1: you cannot get out of the reservation, um be for
Speaker 1: you know you have seven days in advance. Is when
Speaker 1: you have now a lot of places in tourist attraction
Speaker 1: areas at the shore and the beaches. They put this
Speaker 1: in place because they don't want you to see the
Speaker 1: weather on a Thursday and then cancel your whole fucking
Speaker 1: weekend they want so they don't want you to cancel,
Speaker 1: and they get stuck with an empty room. Well that's
Speaker 1: exactly what. You cancel the weekend and then they're stuck
Speaker 1: so with bad with bad weather and no revenue. So
Speaker 1: what they do is they force you into this, the
Speaker 1: seven day cancelation policy. So this way you bear, you
Speaker 1: don't really know what the weather is gonna be. It's
Speaker 1: it's a crapshoot, right, so you're planned in advance. And
Speaker 1: and yes, I've done that in the past, and I've
Speaker 1: gotten screwed over in the past. Where oh funk, it's
Speaker 1: a rainy weekend. But I have to just eat kro
Speaker 1: or I have to pay the money and I have
Speaker 1: to show up. So I went to one of my
Speaker 1: you know, one of my favorite hotels, the Shore. I'm
Speaker 1: not going to mention their name once again. Uh. And
Speaker 1: then I brought into Friday night, Saturday night, I'll be there,
Speaker 1: and all through the week I was a good soldier.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be there, yep. And then the weather was
Speaker 1: coming right this this by the way, stop. I I know,
Speaker 1: we don't get to name everything americanized, but that's not
Speaker 1: anyways so much too difficult. So so I actually stuck
Speaker 1: with it. I'm like, let's see how bad this gets.
Speaker 1: So Friday comes around, Friday night, I stay there. It
Speaker 1: was kind of crappy. It was like Friday night Saturday daytime.
Speaker 1: They have a heated pool it's cloudy out, it doesn't
Speaker 1: really rain. So we're trying to enjoying the day, but
Speaker 1: the warnings were coming through. Get home. It's treacherous. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be treacherous. It's gonna be there's gonna be flooding,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be high winds. You don't want to be
Speaker 1: in this. You don't want to be And all I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about is what is it going to be like
Speaker 1: when I wake up on Sunday morning at the shore?
Speaker 1: Am I gonna what's gonna happen? Is it gonna be flooded?
Speaker 1: And is it gonna be raining? I have to be
Speaker 1: I'm making a trap there because road is gonna be
Speaker 1: closed down, power lines and trees, you know how this
Speaker 1: ship goes. So my girlfriend and I made a concerted well.
Speaker 1: We made a decision that on Saturday evening we were
Speaker 1: gonna take a shower and get dressed and instead of
Speaker 1: going out to eat at the shore with the weather
Speaker 1: coming and then waking up there on Sunday morning, we
Speaker 1: were gonna go. We were just gonna just pack our
Speaker 1: ship and check out checked out at seven thirty pm
Speaker 1: and just head north and just go eat at home.
Speaker 1: Ended up going to Fushimi. I wanted whatever we ate,
Speaker 1: we ate, We had a great meal. Whatever that was that.
Speaker 1: David Brodie, what would you do do out to the
Speaker 1: Jersey Shore on a storm weekend? Damn? Okay, fuck you.
Speaker 1: I was already in. I was balls deep in my reservation.
Speaker 1: So and I already did the Friday night and we
Speaker 1: were gonna stay Saturday night. We had every intention. What
Speaker 1: would would you? Would you then on the back end,
Speaker 1: just first of all, would you just chalk it up
Speaker 1: as a loss? I lose my money for Saturday night,
Speaker 1: see you later? Or do you try and have a
Speaker 1: conversation with the people after the storm passes on Monday morning,
Speaker 1: you call the office and see what's up. No, I
Speaker 1: would preempt He's what I would do. So you decided
Speaker 1: to leave on Saturday, right, yes, Saturday, not and not
Speaker 1: stay Saturday evening? Right because of all the warnings. Right,
Speaker 1: but this is already seven o'clock at night, so they
Speaker 1: can't possibly rent. They were comparing it to Minnie Sandy, okay,
Speaker 1: which was a bad hurricane that storm. Yeah, okay, So
Speaker 1: if you had left it like three in the afternoon,
Speaker 1: you'd have more of a case. But you're already half
Speaker 1: way into the night, you've already used the Saturday room.
Speaker 1: But I know what I've done. What I would have done, Well,
Speaker 1: you've saved them on the hotel, the making the bed,
Speaker 1: I guess or whatever. So here's what I would say.
Speaker 1: I would call the hotel right before I left and say, hey,
Speaker 1: you got any rooms available, and they go, yeah, we
Speaker 1: got plenty of rooms available. Now I've got now, I've got, now,
Speaker 1: I've got Now, you got proof. And now they can't say, oh,
Speaker 1: we could have turned You could have turned the room around,
Speaker 1: because you know, damn well, nobody was going to be
Speaker 1: coming in to rent a room, right so they want
Speaker 1: to take your money and not give it back. But
Speaker 1: it wasn't like they would have lost money. They would
Speaker 1: have been even because you didn't stay in there. Now
Speaker 1: you could have said, look, I understand how he's doing.
Speaker 1: For a couple of hours. The room was two hundred bucks,
Speaker 1: I'll give you seventy five. Let's I'm a regular customer here,
Speaker 1: let's let's do right. Let's you know, or I'll you
Speaker 1: know what I'll do, I'll right now, I'll book next
Speaker 1: weekend right now, and I'll give you the money. Well,
Speaker 1: but you. You, I understand why they charged you. You
Speaker 1: waited too long. You waited into like because you get
Speaker 1: your room at like one o'clock, you're six hours in
Speaker 1: your you you put the tip in at that point.
Speaker 1: I know. So I I called them on Monday morning
Speaker 1: and I said, look, here's my hardship. And they understood
Speaker 1: where I was coming from. Look I just got out
Speaker 1: of there. They completely understood. They completely understood. She calls
Speaker 1: me back today and says, um, I spoke to the
Speaker 1: general manager Mr Skiery, Mr Skery. They call him us
Speaker 1: the skier because that's yeah, it looks. And they said,
Speaker 1: I spoke to the general manager, and we are actually
Speaker 1: giving you a room credit for your next day. They
Speaker 1: credit me back of my stay. So now I got six.
Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna pay thirty on my next day, which
Speaker 1: by the way, is Labor Day weekend, because I have
Speaker 1: to be down at the shore. I'm gonna be a
Speaker 1: bar a on a Saturday night. Is that? Are you plugging?
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. Are you plugging right, Daddy?
Speaker 1: You have to be at the bar for our appearance.
Speaker 1: I'm doing a bar a appearance on Saturday night of
Speaker 1: Labor day weekend. Okay, you're plugging, Yeah, that's what that was.
Speaker 1: But I actually I woke up on Monday and I did.
Speaker 1: I decided not to put it in the rear view
Speaker 1: and sweep it under the rob you said, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna fucking give him the call because what could
Speaker 1: it hurt. I could come back with nothing, because I
Speaker 1: don't deserve free dessert. But this case, you did because
Speaker 1: I used the room for the for a good part
Speaker 1: of the day. You caught me on that one, but
Speaker 1: not the whole day, not the I didn't sleep over,
Speaker 1: and they they have record of me checking out at
Speaker 1: seven thirty, so they knew that I checked out at night,
Speaker 1: and and they were really cool a bad And then
Speaker 1: since I've been a great customer all this time, they said, here,
Speaker 1: here's some here's a lot of room credit. So basically
Speaker 1: I'm getting like close to a free, free night out
Speaker 1: of it. I like that, you know, and that awesome.
Speaker 1: Here's the best part of it. By the way, Mr scary,
Speaker 1: you do know that on Sunday at the Jersey Shore,
Speaker 1: it didn't ever rained and there was no flooding because
Speaker 1: the storm went up to Rhode Island and then so
Speaker 1: we got shipped on here in the Tri State area
Speaker 1: in New York, but the Jersey Shore was largely intact,
Speaker 1: and the sun even came out, so that I stayed
Speaker 1: how I stayed, I would have enjoyed a beautiful sunday there,
Speaker 1: you would have anyway, all right, all right, Um, I

Speaker 1: of them. Well, guess what Frank and Berry I of
Speaker 1: stuff is Frank and Berry for fucking Halloween. It was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's pinky in the brain. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: what the are you talking about? Fucking Frank and Berry? Bitch,
Speaker 1: who's the fanken Berry is? When you wipe your ass
Speaker 1: and you get a little toilet paper stuck to your hair,
Speaker 1: got a little Frank and Berry. Little Frank and Berry's down?
Speaker 1: That what then? And I'm thinking, like, and that was
Speaker 1: ten years ago, and like people don't know this fucking costume.
Speaker 1: And I'm addressing this giant ass with a foam head head.
Speaker 1: I was Frank and Berry go on TikTok and see
Speaker 1: if you see a lot of kids doing like a cosplay,
Speaker 1: is Frank and Berry. Dude. I was so upset. Oh
Speaker 1: can I tell you about TikTok? I got TikTok story hilarious, Yeah,
Speaker 1: TikTok don't stop. Yes, So um this by the way,
Speaker 1: that's that's an event that I was planning. And then
Speaker 1: COVID hit with the radio station. We were gonna do
Speaker 1: a it doesn't matter. So this girl, this girl films herself.
Speaker 1: She's like, I worked from home and you're gonna go
Speaker 1: look it up. Her account is Corporate Natalie Corporate and
Speaker 1: at corporate Natalie on TikTok. I don't follow her, but
Speaker 1: I screenshot at it right, and she says, oh, I
Speaker 1: work from home, and I noticed today that the woman
Speaker 1: in the apartment building across the street is working from home.
Speaker 1: I see her every day. She's working from home. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna make a new friend. So she hangs up her
Speaker 1: sign and she she writes out a sign. She films
Speaker 1: herself with a magic marker, making a paper sign, and
Speaker 1: she says, Hi, I also work from home. Do you
Speaker 1: want to be friends? And the woman puts up. The
Speaker 1: woman goes and gets paper. Now I'm fairly confident this
Speaker 1: is legit because the woman who had paper supplies near
Speaker 1: her desk, and she writes, not really. And then the
Speaker 1: girl writes back the girls staring at her, and she goes,
Speaker 1: I can't believe. He says it wound be my friend.
Speaker 1: And then then she writes another one that says, are
Speaker 1: you filming me? And then the woman closes her blinds,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I do I do you know what
Speaker 1: I want to get? I'll get the audio for next week.
Speaker 1: But in my four you page you know when you scroll,
Speaker 1: and they want to get stuff right, So I follow
Speaker 1: a lot of politics and comedy on TikTok, right, and
Speaker 1: so I'm constantly getting prank pranksters, and there's this I
Speaker 1: would have blocked them. But these a couple of guys
Speaker 1: in their twenties maybe, and they do that. What they
Speaker 1: do is they they prank people by in public. They'll
Speaker 1: say something to a girl that has a secondary meaning
Speaker 1: and when she gets offended or the boyfriend gets offended,
Speaker 1: another friend walks up with that item. Right, So like
Speaker 1: they these two hot girls that were walking by, and
Speaker 1: he'll go, He'll look right at them and go nice rack,
Speaker 1: and they'll go, what did you say? And he'll keep
Speaker 1: walking and his friend is holding a bike racks and
Speaker 1: they do it all the time, right, Like, so that's
Speaker 1: the bit like, oh, I can't wait to grab ahold
Speaker 1: of those jugs and then at least buddy of me
Speaker 1: behind her with jugs like I was talking to them.
Speaker 1: But it's oh fake, it's so just saying that that
Speaker 1: it's not spontaneous and they're not really getting real genuine
Speaker 1: reactions speaking, the boyfriend would have punched the guy. It's
Speaker 1: so obvious that it was you said it to my girlfriend,
Speaker 1: And it's a bit you're doing like and it's it's
Speaker 1: and they're like, are you talking to me? Like it's
Speaker 1: the whole thing is set up right Then I saw
Speaker 1: another one where these two guys are in a car
Speaker 1: and I gotta find the audio. I don't know if
Speaker 1: I saved it in my favorites or not. They're filming
Speaker 1: in four K high definition and a woman they're saying,
Speaker 1: it's a Karen video, and an old lady's behind the
Speaker 1: car and she's screaming at them you can't park there
Speaker 1: in a strip mall. You can't park here, And they're
Speaker 1: using like multiple camera angles and they're filming the backup
Speaker 1: camera they're filming and they come from camera to camera.
Speaker 1: Then that's how you know it's fake right there? Scary.
Speaker 1: The quality of the video is clearly like eight K
Speaker 1: even it's like it's like it's like video like TV
Speaker 1: show quality, like you're watching a TV show. And they're like,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about, lady? Why would we have
Speaker 1: to move? Like it's so fake, And she's like, you
Speaker 1: can't park here, but she never gives a reason. And
Speaker 1: then like some guy walks up, he was why are
Speaker 1: you yelling? Why why can't they park here. They can't
Speaker 1: park here. I know they can't park he's doing skits.
Speaker 1: But it's got a million views and all the comments
Speaker 1: are like, what a crazy Karen, So glad you filmed it.
Speaker 1: It's so so fake fake. There isn't when they when
Speaker 1: they film the backup camera, then she starts pointing like
Speaker 1: she starts like acting out to the camera. You know
Speaker 1: what a backup camera looks like on a car. It's
Speaker 1: a little fish eye lends the size of a nickel.
Speaker 1: But she was looking right into it. Why would you
Speaker 1: do that if you yelling at the people in the car.
Speaker 1: It's the worst fake. They can't even fake fake. But
Speaker 1: then all the people are like, oh this is great,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, she's crazy. We have an eye and
Speaker 1: an ear for that ship. I will say one trend
Speaker 1: that I do see on TikTok that maybe real. Have
Speaker 1: you seen girls jumping up and down? Have you seen yeah?
Speaker 1: Have you seen the one? Have you seen the one
Speaker 1: with the the the fake the fake TikTok message that
Speaker 1: appears there's a there's basically what you're supposed to do
Speaker 1: is it's it's a it's actually a filter for TikTok.
Speaker 1: But you go in ahead of time, and it is
Speaker 1: a drop while the film while you, while you're your
Speaker 1: significant other is watching the film, watching TikTok with you.
Speaker 1: It's like using the front facing camera. The About two
Speaker 1: seconds into the video, a dropdown will come down, a
Speaker 1: fake drop down with looks which looks like somebody slid
Speaker 1: into your d M s on TikTok, and you ahead
Speaker 1: of time will write in in the box, um, hey
Speaker 1: did your boyfriend leave yet? Can't wait to see you tonight.
Speaker 1: So someone goes to write that ahead of time, and
Speaker 1: then they filmed themselves with their boyfriend and saying look
Speaker 1: and say, hey, honey, look at this. There's this new
Speaker 1: filter here does my look at my look at my lips?
Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, the drop down of
Speaker 1: the message that she road ahead of time comes down
Speaker 1: and says, hey, is your boyfriend still there? I want
Speaker 1: to see you later. And then you get their genuine
Speaker 1: reaction of ry, but it's still a fake. No, well,
Speaker 1: you get the genuine reaction of the of the person.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you, Brodie, that challenge that is fucking
Speaker 1: real because I've seen I watched no less than thirty
Speaker 1: because this it's so funny, but I will say, I'll
Speaker 1: tell you, Brodie, they these were unplanned. These are these
Speaker 1: are these are people playing jokes on their girlfriends and boyfriends.
Speaker 1: And you know, the dropdown would come in like a
Speaker 1: second into the video and and the guy like, looks
Speaker 1: the things funny? But who's who's Maurice? Who the funk?
Speaker 1: What the fund? You better tell me? And and I'm
Speaker 1: telling you you can't plan. I mean some of it's
Speaker 1: acted out, but I would say a lot of it.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I'm tired of. And I don't
Speaker 1: know why after one person does it, other people think
Speaker 1: they need to do it. What's that? It's the I'm
Speaker 1: sitting on the couch and the girlfriend just happens to
Speaker 1: walk and sit down at the couch, and the friend
Speaker 1: just happens to be filming it. And it's high quality
Speaker 1: video and the guy takes his legs off and hands
Speaker 1: him to her, and she's like, oh, yeah, your legs right.
Speaker 1: There's hundreds of them different and so what what? Basically what?
Speaker 1: And they show you the guy you cut a hole
Speaker 1: in the couch. First of all, who's cutting a hole
Speaker 1: in your couch unless you're a professional stunt guy? Right,
Speaker 1: you cut all in your couch. You put your feet
Speaker 1: through it so only your torso is sticking up through
Speaker 1: the couch cushion. You cut a hole through the couch cushion,
Speaker 1: and then you take fake mannequin legs wearing pants you
Speaker 1: normally wearing shoes and socks, and you you put it
Speaker 1: up against your torso so it looks like you're sitting
Speaker 1: on the couch. Then when your girlfriend sits down, you go,
Speaker 1: can you hold these for a minute, And you pick
Speaker 1: up the fake legs and hand him to her, and
Speaker 1: then they freak out, oh my god, your legs came off,
Speaker 1: and what world? What worlds coming off? And and and
Speaker 1: and if it was real, you'd really cut a hole
Speaker 1: in your own couch. And it's so high definition it
Speaker 1: looks like it just doesn't even look like. It's just terrible,
Speaker 1: and it's not like you sold one guy and you
Speaker 1: keep seeing it. They all keep doing it, and the
Speaker 1: comments are like, oh my god, she was so scared.
Speaker 1: You're like, no, she wasn't. She's an actress. They're all
Speaker 1: in on it, are everything. When they walk in the
Speaker 1: room and they get shot with a water bottles. Some
Speaker 1: of the some of the stuff is real, but you
Speaker 1: could really I could smell a rat a mile away now,
Speaker 1: if you'll excuse me, Brodie, I have to take shipment
Speaker 1: of a delivery of crates milk crates, so I couldn't.
Speaker 1: There was a guy showboating yesterday. I saw on TikTok
Speaker 1: and this motherfucker he was carrying a bottle of vodka
Speaker 1: and he goes up the crates and he gets the
Speaker 1: very top of the top pinnacle of the seventh crate
Speaker 1: and he literally just takes opens up the vodka, takes
Speaker 1: a huge swig and then comes down the other side
Speaker 1: and he makes it. If you don't know what the
Speaker 1: crate challenges, google it. It's basically stacking milk crates in
Speaker 1: a pyramid style and you have to get all the
Speaker 1: way up to the top and then all the way
Speaker 1: to the bottom. If the walk up like a staircase,
Speaker 1: but most people fall. There's been people in the hospital
Speaker 1: like crazy fucking injuries from this thing. I would not
Speaker 1: suggest you bust a fucking kneecap on the way down,
Speaker 1: because you're so high up in the air by the
Speaker 1: time you get to that A crate that's stacked seven high,
Speaker 1: which is the top of the top of the staircase.
Speaker 1: That ship so fucking wobbly. You better have a center
Speaker 1: of gravity or you're dead. You're dead because you will
Speaker 1: fucking fall and there is no easy way to fall.
Speaker 1: You can't because you're gonna fall on top of the
Speaker 1: fucking hard milk crate on something. You're gonna break something,
Speaker 1: break your wrist or something, I don't know, break your head.
Speaker 1: See that, it's a lose, lose because if you do it. Okay,
Speaker 1: you walked up milk rates and you got seventy years,
Speaker 1: Yeah you got, You got milk crates. So what you
Speaker 1: walked up milk rates? You know, graduate from Harvard, like,
Speaker 1: do something real. I walked up milk rates. So that
Speaker 1: you're either gonna kill yourself, hurt yourself, or accomplish something
Speaker 1: that no one's gonna care, like a five years and
Speaker 1: now I gonna go. You know, back in I walked
Speaker 1: up milk crates. I I Steve, Thanks, right, what are
Speaker 1: you gonna award for? He? Hey, hey, come one, what's

Speaker 1: like the two old men in the balcony on the listen.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying there are a third There are certain
Speaker 1: challenges that are like you can go, but I just
Speaker 1: feel like the milk crate challenge, there's no other than
Speaker 1: like your friends to go, wow, you did it. A
Speaker 1: week later, no one's gonna care. It's just it's gonna
Speaker 1: be the next challenge. Right It's too because you know what,
Speaker 1: it's not as much based on your skill as whether
Speaker 1: or not the milk crates want to challenges that waste
Speaker 1: food dude challenges. I'm gonna eat fifteen cheeseburgers, that's fine,
Speaker 1: but it's up to the milk crate whether you succeed
Speaker 1: or not. Right Like, I feel like that's the part
Speaker 1: we have to go to some wait wait, wait, wait wait,
Speaker 1: I might get hurt because the milk crate might decide
Speaker 1: not to stay locked into the milk crate under it
Speaker 1: through no fault of mine. I'm not taking that chance.
Speaker 1: Congratulations to the milk crate manufacturer companies. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: been on a run. There's been a run on them
Speaker 1: and now and they contain a store like the prices
Speaker 1: are inflated. Not since the days of vinyl records milk
