00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,440

00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: I'm ready to go. Now.

86
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: We're brothers, right, so we've known each other forever, but

87
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: it's it's odd. We're two different people. We are personalities.

88
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: I mean, although we find we have a lot of

89
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: the same sense of humors and some of the same likes,

90
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: and we honestly we have the same friends group. But

91
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: we're two different folks. But one of the things that

92
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: people can identify us with we have in common, and

93
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: it's our hair reputation. Would you say that's that's fact.

94
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 2: I mean, in so far as we were, you saying, okay,

95
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 2: and I get a lot of a lot of hair comments.

96
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 2: You get a lot of hair you do give you

97
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 2: that you do?

98
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: So what what do they say about your hair? What

99
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: would you say?

100
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 3: So I've had the same hair for like, I don't know,

101
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 3: since I was twenty two, fourteen years now, and.

102
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: So I get, well, the same hair style, you get

103
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: it cut and whatnot. It's not just free flowing, No.

104
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: That's true. Story, that'd be that'd be a bad deal there,

105
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 2: all right. I get a lot of people thinking it

106
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 2: takes me forever to do this.

107
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, you so you have you got a little bit

108
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: of a wave going on the front. You're always styled,

109
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: it's pristine. No matter what you're doing, everybody says you're

110
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,119
Speaker 1: the guy with the hair. And then that's just always

111
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 1: been the case, right, And like a great example of

112
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: was last Saturday, you did a mud run in Kansas City,

113
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: and one of the comments on the pictures in the mudd,

114
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: I mean, you're you're disgusted, right, You're filled with mud

115
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: and you sweat and you've been through it all, but

116
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: your hair looks perfect.

117
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: Yes, what I do exactly, I'll run through fire, I'll

118
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 3: get through the mud, I'll go swimming.

119
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. You're still perfect.

120
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: Hair looks good. Yeah, you just you've got the hair.

121
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: So people always identify you with the hair. It's just

122
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: the way it's always been for as long as I've known. Yeah,

123
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: And then on the flip side, people have always identified

124
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: me with my hair because it's red and I'm the

125
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: only one in our family with the red hair. I

126
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: don't know what's going on there, but the jokes, not

127
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: the jokes that I get to tell, but the jokes

128
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: that people want to tell and do taeill at me

129
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: are just gold so when you've been.

130
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: Hearing these jokes for you know, a lot of years.

131
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, but it's almost you got to be like,

132
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: here's the deal.

133
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 3: Guy, you've been hearing this for forty years. You got

134
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 3: to come up with something.

135
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: Dude, come on, well, here's the thing. I'm forty, right,

136
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: So when I was young, it was all hate and

137
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: just making fun of me and like, who the hell

138
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: are you with your red hair? Right, like, there's that

139
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: You've got problems. Now that I'm older, I get countless

140
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: older women being like your hair is so beautiful, and

141
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: so it's it's now it's flip side. I'm a hero

142
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: now with the red hair as the old guy. But

143
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: as the young guy, it just it was let's just say, it.

144
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 3: Was like this is kind of like the story of

145
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 3: life there though, right, You're like growing up, you get

146
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 3: through some things to come out on the other side,

147
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 3: and life's great.

148
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. I suppose I suppose you could say that unless

149
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: you go through all the ridicule and the beat down

150
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: and the and the hatred of your hair while you

151
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: were young and healthy, and then you get Crohn's disease

152
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: and then you're like, hey, I'm dying on the inside.

153
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: But now I get compliments about my hair.

154
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: I may have forgot about the crones for a second.

155
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: So I don't know if I'm on my redemption. Aren't

156
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: quite yet, but we'll see. We'll see where we're going. Man,

157
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: So we were gonna record the other night. You're like, man,

158
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: I can I can go at like eight or eight

159
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: thirty or whatever it is. And but you you had games.

160
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: You're coaching your coach Ozzie's team or no coach.

161
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 3: Him.

162
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: Okay, so nobody listening to show knows you. So that's

163
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: in the intro. I'll make sure that's clear that you've

164
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: been heard and seen nowhere. But you are my brother,

165
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: so you're relevant to the show. But for folks that

166
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,319
Speaker 1: don't know, you've got three children and you're coaching your

167
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: youngest is flag football team. You were talking about the

168
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: game and ended up losing what by a touchdown and

169
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: Ozzie almost had the game winning touchdown.

170
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 3: Absolutely, we're down one score our offense.

171
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 2: So we're struggling this year. Not gonna lie. It's tough

172
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 2: to coach third and fourth graders.

173
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: Right, Oh yeah, So we're trying to move the ball.

174
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 2: We can't move the ball at all. And it's fourth down.

175
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 2: We're basically backed up against our own end zone. Okay,

176
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 2: and there's forty seconds.

177
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 3: So either you you know, you punch and basically say

178
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 3: all right, we'll stop them, we'll lose the game by

179
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 3: a score, or you take one final shot and you

180
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 3: try to actually tie this up, try to win.

181
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: We took one final shot.

182
00:09:55,400 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: Were you considering just not taking the wild shot? Now? Oh?

183
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 2: Okay, you were.

184
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: You were laying down the options. I'm like, is that

185
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: an option? We played to win the game?

186
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 2: Look at you right? Oh yeah?

187
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 3: And you got parents looking at you, and you're like,

188
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 3: I hope everybody's on the same page as me, because

189
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 3: this is what we're doing.

190
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 2: We play to win.

191
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: Yep.

192
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,720

00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: We're in a safe space here, Okay, we are in

200
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: a safe space here. So you you said it's a struggle,

201
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 1: you know, coaching young young kids, and I don't. I

202
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: don't know if you have some stories from practice or

203
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: from the games, but I don't coach either of my

204
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: two kids teams. But I do sit in a car

205
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: watching practice.

206
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 2: And why are you in the car? Bring a chair, guy.

207
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: I listened to music and listen to podcasts, and the

208
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: chair i'm outside. I get some burn. It's a whole

209
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 1: it's a whole deal. But but one of the things

210
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: that happened a couple of weeks ago practice, I'm sitting

211
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: in the car and there's you know, kids probably even

212
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 1: younger and Aussie. They were probably I don't know six,

213
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: you know, six or so. They're playing flag football. They're

214
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: in practice. It's in between the soccer practice that is

215
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: going on that Hattie's in, right, So I have no

216
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: I'm watching practice. I'm watching Hattie's practice, but I'm also

217
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: checking in on these kids playing flag football and seeing

218
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: what's up. And the fella that's coaching that team, that

219
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: poor guy. He was trying to run the office and

220
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: kind of teach him how to line up and get

221
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: plays going. But meanwhile, the linebackers are digging in the

222
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: dirt they wanted. He picked up a rock he bent over.

223
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: He was acting like he was pooping it out, and

224
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: he just thought it was great. While the offense is

225
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: running plays like this guy who knew that in flag

226
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: football you might need offensive defensive coordinators just to keep

227
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: the kids straight from pooping on the field. But I

228
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: don't know, do you have any any stories like to

229
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: have it? I saw this in person the other day.

230
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 2: Yes, this is a very real thing. So we do

231
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 2: have offensive defense. I run the offense yep. Again, ignore

232
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,199
Speaker 2: that we couldn't move the ball last game. And then

233
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 2: my assistant coach, he runs a defense.

234
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 3: He's fantastic, and so we A lot of things like

235
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 3: that happen, right, So take this last practice, kise. We're

236
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 3: trying to work on handoffs because if you have smooth handoffs,

237
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 3: you're gonna move the ball. You know, you're talking about

238
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 3: nine year olds, right, You can't. You're not the best

239
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 3: of passing. But if we have smooth handoffs, life's good.

240
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 3: So we're working on this drill.

241
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: Okay. One of my guys comes over to me. I'm like, hey,

242
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,719
Speaker 2: you know, coach needs to run that.

243
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 3: I gotta talk to him. He comes up to me, Coach,

244
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 3: I think my part was wet handoffs? You go, can't

245
00:12:59,040 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 3: I go.

246
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,079
Speaker 2: Talk to my mom? Absolutely, do what you gotta do.

247
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 1: Is my kid on your team?

248
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: All of a sudden, I'm in shock.

249
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: I was not prepared. I'm trying to get everybody doing

250
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 2: handoffs here.

251
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 3: But he runs across the field, you know, does what

252
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 3: he does, consults right, comes right back to me, doesn't

253
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 3: get back in line. I'm like, I don't know what's

254
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 3: about to happen. It comes back, coach. Can I go

255
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 3: to the bathroom? Absolutely?

256
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 2: You do what you got to do. Man, You do

257
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: what you gotta do.

258
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 3: And we're having one of those, you know, sports complexes, right,

259
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 3: So bathroom is not right next to yet.

260
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: So he takes off. He's running. It's it's not a

261
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 2: mile away, but it feels like a mile away. So

262
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 2: he's gone. He's gone for a while. Okay a while.

263
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 2: Dude comes back into practice ready to go, and it's over,

264
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 2: and I'm like, you do all right?

265
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 3: Yeah?

Speaker 3: So I had to I had to clean up, but

273
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: you're handing the ball to him and then everyone else

274
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: is touching the ball and you don't know what's gonna happen.

275

00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 2: Right now is oh, it's chaos right now.

310
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: And it's it has to do with the quarterback, right

311
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: has a Joe Burrow. I mean he's too big of

312
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: a question mark right now. I mean the excitement of

313
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: his long term deal, in being the highest paid player

314
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: in the NFL, The excitement of that's gone, like just

315
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: it's a it's a long distant memory. Right, Nah, you're

316
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: zero and too. He's re injured himself. He came back

317
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: probably too early. I don't know, it doesn't seem like

318
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: they're getting the ball in their playmaker's hands.

319
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 2: I don't know. How do you how can you say

320
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 2: he came back too early?

321
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 3: He sat for six weeks, didn't do any practice, six weeks,

322
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 3: felt amazing.

323
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 2: Doctors checked him out and said he is amazing. I mean,

324
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 2: anything can happen.

325
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 3: You can't.

326
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 2: It wasn't just because it was aggravated. All right, he

327
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 2: got an injury. That happens. But here's the deal. Here's

328
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 2: what here's what Bengals fans need to understand.

329
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 3: Here's what I need Jeremy to understand. All right, whether

330
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 3: he plays or not. For beating the Rams on Monday,

331
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 3: we got the defense without with or without Joe Burrow.

332
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 3: You have Higgins, you got Chase, you got Boyd, you

333
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 3: got Mixing.

334
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 2: It's it's not gloom and doom. Man.

335
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 3: They won one game in the first two weeks in

336
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 3: the last five years, that's insane.

337
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 1: Well here's what you got going for it. Go ahead.

338
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, go ahead, No.

339
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 2: I'm just saying.

340
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 3: And they also in the past what two years AFC

341
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,959
Speaker 3: Championship appearents AFC Championship victory.

342
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 2: So it's like, come on now, just let it, let

343
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 2: it play out. We've proven as.

344
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 3: A franchise that, you know, slow starters, right or wrong,

345
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 3: better or worse, it happens for slow starters.

346
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 2: It's still gonna happen.

347
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,159
Speaker 1: Last year started zero and two, but the difference was

348
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: there was a feeling of this team is talented, the

349
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: best players are gonna be on the field, and they're

350
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna figure it out.

351
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 2: Man.

352
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: This year just seems like, uh, Joe, Joe's injury is

353
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 1: really gonna be a cloud over him. But I don't know,

354
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: you never know. I mean, and they are playing, the

355
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: Rams are playing Monday night and the Rams are beatable.

356
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: I mean it should it should be a good game,

357
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: but they are beatable. Is that is it at home?

358
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, it's at home?

359
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 3: Super Bowl rematch, White Tiger game.

360
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 2: Joe and Boomer in the house.

361
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 1: Oh man, that's yes. That makes it even worse that

362
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: you're starting quarterbacks and I could be playing.

363
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 2: That's hey, you might be.

364
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: First of all, you practice today, if you're if you're

365
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 3: ranking based on.

366
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 2: Vibes, the Bangles better be number one after this week,

367
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 2: all right?

368
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: No? Oh, so they're the worst team in the NFL.

369
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: I could totally I could get on board with that.

370
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,360
Speaker 1: I was trying to inchim in, but you're right. I'll

371
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: just kidding.

372
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 3: If we're talking a bottom five, how come we're not

373
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 3: even mentioning a team from Los Angeles.

374
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: The Rams.

375
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 3: I know at once, at once quarterback in the NFL

376
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 3: this summer can't figure out how to how to keep

377
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 3: a lead in the fourth? How to you know, score

378
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 3: some points in the fourth make a comeback?

379
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 2: What's what's going on there? Why are you talking about that?

380
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: I know you're talking about the Chargers. Here's here's the difference.

381
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,919
Speaker 1: Here's the difference between the two. The Chargers offense is

382
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 1: top three in the NFL, so they can put they

383
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: can pile points on. The defense obviously is a problem.

384
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: It's at the bottom of the NFL right now, giving

385
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: up just crazy amounts of points, but we're averaging at

386
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 1: the top and points scored. Herbert looks legit. I mean,

387
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: he gets a bad rap for these end of game

388
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: situations where we're down one score and he's got the

389
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: ball in his hands because he's he's actually man, I

390
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: wish I had that stat in front of me, but

391
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 1: he I saw today where he's converted to either tie

392
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: or take the lead in those situations more times than

393
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 1: almost every team in the league since he's been in

394
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 1: the league. It's it was a crazy stat but he's

395
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,199
Speaker 1: in that position. But he's in that position weekly. His problems,

396
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: he's in that position weekly. You can't you can't be

397
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: in that You know how many times Joe Burrow in

398
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 1: that spot, right, He's in there a few times a season.

399
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: All the time you with the game on the line

400
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 1: at the very end, balls in his hand down one score. Absolutely, No, Joe,

401
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: They're they're winning the they're leading the game more times

402
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: than not.

403
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 3: No, they're a and then something happens and then they

404
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 3: gotta come back in the second half.

405
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 1: Well now I want to look it up. But what

406
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: I do know is that they watch every Chargers game.

407
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 1: And this is a thing. I mean, it's uh, it's

408
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: just like the Huskers, you know, they're they find new

409
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 1: ways to lose. And you know, I was just on

410
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: the wtl UH Sports Betting podcast the other night and

411
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: one of the things we were talking about is finding

412
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 1: new ways. They're like, somebody's got to win rights the

413
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: oh and two Vikings and the two Chargers, and I'm

414
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: I do not put money on the Chargers winning this game.

415
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: Do I think that the better team one hundred, But

416
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 1: they'll find a way to not win. That could mean

417
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: a tie. Like I'm not saying they're gonna lose, but

418
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: they may die. Like they just find new ways, and

419
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: at this point they're running out of new ways to

420
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: invent it. And that's I don't know, it's it's sad.

421
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: It's disheartening, and I feel I've been through it and

422
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm a broken soul of a person now.

423
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: But my you know, my son who is a Chargers

424
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: fan because of me, I feel bad for him. He's

425
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: growing up with all these losses just piling up. It's

426
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: Brayden's going before. He's going through it all right. At

427
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: least we're past like the heartbreak of when it happens

428
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: into tears. I mean, at this point he's we can

429
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: see it coming, right, and then it happens and it's

430
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: like dang, the disappointments still there. But you know when

431
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 1: we finally win, and you know that's gonna happen. I

432
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: mean you've seen it with the Bengals, when you finally

433
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 1: get through and you win, it's gonna it's gonna be special,

434
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: but it doesn't change the fact that the Bengals are

435
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: bottom five in the NFL currently, and I'm gonna continue

436
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 1: to rank them there until they can turn it around.

437
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 2: Who's okay, give me who's the other sword? What are

438
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 2: we talking about?

439
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 1: The worst team? We're worst team in the NFL, Arizona Cardinals.

440
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 1: We can agree on that, right, Okay? Number two the

441
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: New York Giants.

442
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't agree.

443
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 3: I don't necessarily agree that they shouldn't be about five,

444
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 3: but number two, they just had the what one of

445
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 3: the biggest comebacks in Giants history?

446
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and who was that against the Cardinals? The worst

447
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: team in the NFL. If there's a team that you

448
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 1: can come back from twenty one on, it's the worst

449
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 1: team in the NFL. And before they came back from

450
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: the twenty one they started this season like down sixty

451
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 1: to nothing.

452
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 2: Hey, calm down, this.

453
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: Is a bad team. And you know, they just lost Barkley,

454
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: you know, and he'll be back. It's just a sprain.

455
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 1: But you know, they lost Barkley, so that's that's a

456
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: real thing. I don't like this team at all. I

457
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: think there was a lot of hype last season because

458
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: they overachieved. They've got the you know, they had the

459
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 1: new head coach. I think now there's maybe too much

460
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: on him that people know what's up.

461
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 2: But wouldn't you agree though that.

462
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 3: Okay, last year, like you said, overchieves, right, yep, but

463
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 3: it felt like game plan personnel wise, they were never

464
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 3: out of the game.

465
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, so I'd say it.

466
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 3: They came back one of the largest comebacks in Giants history,

467
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 3: no matter who was against.

468
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 2: Right, and then just last night we witnessed Yep, they lost,

469
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 2: but they were never out of it. It felt like

470
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 2: you were going against one of the top, top, top

471
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 2: tier teams in the NFL. They were never out of it.

472
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,120
Speaker 2: So I think they might have found their way.

473
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: I think they might be okay, all right, all right, well,

474
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: well we will see. I mean that's why they play

475
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 1: the games. Number three, the Pittsburgh Steelers.

476
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 2: Oh that they should be number one. I hate the Steelers.

477
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 2: I hate everything about them. They're terrible. They can't their

478
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 2: quarterback cannot throw the ball.

479
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 3: I don't understand why people think he's a thing, but

480
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,360
Speaker 3: they fortunately only because I'm a Bengals fan. But fortunately

481
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 3: they're gonna waste the talent of Pickens because he looks amazing.

482
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 2: Yep. But they can't get on the ball.

483
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: So they've got the best defensive player on the on

484
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 1: the defense of side, and he continues to rack up

485
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: sacks and cause havoc to the opposing quarterback. Their offense

486
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: is just non existent. But you gotta love it because

487
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: it's the Bengals and there's two wins, hopefully, and when

488
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: you're a team that is bottom five in the NFL,

489
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: you're gonna need a rack up win somewhere. So that's uh,

490
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: that's where we're at. Okay, number four, the Minnesota Vikings.

491
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 1: So it's the team that the Chargers are going up

492
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: against this one. And here's why, because there you could say, oh,

493
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 1: the Vikings, they score points, and why are the Chargers

494
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: not in this bottom five? The Vikings offensively are just

495
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: killing themselves with the turnovers. Their running game is non existent.

496
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: They've got some of the best playmakers in the league

497
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 1: in the NFC for sure on the offensive side of

498
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: the football, but they are just causing so many turn

499
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: like just self made turnovers. That is put them in

500
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 1: the position of their where their defenses to do something,

501
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: and their defense sucks So that's kind of where I'm

502
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: out for Vikings and and they are feeling that level

503
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: of maybe last year we overachieved and there's a lot

504
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: of pressure on the team, you know, to still try

505
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,880
Speaker 1: to try to win the North, and it's just not there.

506
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: This team just isn't ready for it.

507
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 2: You might, you might be right.

508
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 3: I just think I think Kirk Cousins gets it done,

509
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 3: justin Jefferson gets it done. New guy Addison seems to

510
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 3: be getting it done. If they don't have a run game,

511
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 3: you're not wrong about that. And they just traded for

512
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 3: running back who is even worse. So I don't know

513
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 3: what's going on.

514
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 2: There, but uh, I think they might be on the

515
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 2: up middle of the pack.

516
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 1: Now I heard I heard Acres got traded from the

517
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: Rams just because he wanted to hook up with mcveigh's wife.

518
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 1: Is that true?

519
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:47,479
Speaker 2: Breaking?

520
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 1: I think it might be breaking news here on the

521
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: Laugh with Me podcast. Uh yeah, cam Acres, That's what

522
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,399

523
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: everything I see on the internet, but this felt right.

524
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 2: So I don't know. Sounds like Wilson.

525
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: No, that would be the coach's mom, not the Oh

548
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,880
Speaker 1: you through the ringer about your favorite team. Now let's

549
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: talk about work. You and I both we've grown up

550
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 1: at the grocery store, over twenty years of dedicated service

551
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 1: to the people, and along the way some crazy I

552
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: mean we see crazy stuff, we live crazy stuff. I

553
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,400
Speaker 1: don't know that we cause crazy stuff, do we?

554
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 2: No?

555
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: No, no, never. I guess we haven't been twenty years

556
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 1: of leadership, but we've been most of it now. I

557
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: mean we're on the back end of that. There's no

558
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: way we've caused this craziness. I can't imagine that we've

559
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: ever put our people in a position where we've bought

560
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: so much of something and said just figure out and

561
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: sell it and it's something dumb. If you ever had

562
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 1: any instances of that.

563
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 3: Uh well, now you got to call me out like that.

564
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 3: So I was, you know, I was a young guy, right,

565
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 3: my first you know, managerial position.

566
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 2: I was excited.

567
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 3: Okay, you know, you got these vendors. They come up

568
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 3: to you, they try to say everything in the world

569
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 3: and it all sounds great, right, They say, hey, we're

570
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 3: taking this much off.

571
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 2: If you buy this much, get after it. So I

572
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 2: thought that was a great idea about a whole palette

573
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 2: of lint rollers. Yeah, so that was good. So I

574
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 2: don't know if you know how that goes.

575
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 3: But no one needs something you need like one in

576
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 3: that last year eighteen years so uh yeah, eight months

577
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 3: later and me trying to struggle to hold onto my job,

578
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 3: I'm trying.

579
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 2: To do demos. I'm hitting people's pants with these limp rollers.

580
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: Plent rollers. You're just you have no idea rolling up

581
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: to people pets?

582
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, absolutely.

583
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: Like do you have pets? I can tell here, why

584
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: don't you try this lent roller? No idea?

585
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 2: Do you have a palette? What are you supposed to

586
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 2: do with that? Oh? It's terrible for a year, painful.

587
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,959
Speaker 1: That's the beauty of it, though, Like sometimes you just

588
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: you're like, okay, that's a deal. You see dollar signs,

589
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: You're like, who doesn't need a lit roller? And then

590
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: you have them, like you're excited about it the whole

591
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: time until you have them, and then you're like, what

592
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: did I do? Nobody needs a lit roller? You know

593
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: they always say, like the numbers don't lie, Like there's

594
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: probably data to back up that you should not have

595
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: done that, But what an idea right, You're.

596
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 2: Like I could do this. What those other guys just suck?

597
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 2: I got this.

598
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I had a similar situation the same department.

599
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: Actually I got sold on three pallets of cartoon socks

600
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: and like like kids swimming trunks, like they were all

601
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: free kids. And I'm like easy money, Like who doesn't

602
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: buy socks, you know, like especially cartoons these SpongeBob or

603
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: Mickey Mouse or something, and yeah, I maybe could have

604
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: sold half a palette and it got a man. I

605
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: was pushing those socks, you know, the old sidewalk sales.

606
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 1: I would fill up these bins full of them and

607
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: put them out in the front sidewalk. And then the

608
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: boss is like, why every weekend do you trash my

609
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: store with your socks. It's like, man, I'm making money.

610
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: He's like, no, you're not, No, you're not.

611
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 2: Do you feel cool? You got people walking by like

612
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 2: take a pair of those. You're just like, yeah, what.

613
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: If I give you a dozen for the price of one?

614
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: How do you feel about that? And then they instantly think, well,

615
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: these are trashed, and I'm like they are not trash.

616
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: These are quality goods that I have to sell well

617
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: below cost because I screwed up. That's where we're at

618
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: right now. I thought it was a great idea. Yeah,

619
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: those are tough lessons that we learned, but like fun,

620
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: I mean there, it's a challenge, right. You love a challenge,

621
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: especially when you're in a business that you're primarily selling

622
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: basic goods and sometimes can be unfun. The last, you know,

623
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 1: few years we went, we had so many peaks and valleys,

624
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: you know, because of the pandemic. But the beauty of

625
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: the pandemic, that's why I tell people all the time.

626
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: And you you may not think there's any beauty in

627
00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: what happened here, but we were kings. I don't know

628
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: if you remember this, but we were freaking kings. We

629
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: were essential. They the folks needed us to show up

630
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 1: to work because they need to eat. And I would

631
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: literally pull out a pallet of toilet paper and hand

632
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: it to people because they needed it so bad. That's

633
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: a level, that's a level we'll never see again. Likely.

634
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: Hopefully we could get.

635
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 2: Like five pallets and a hand sanitizer. We were clings

636
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 2: for an hour and then it was gone.

637
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: Hand sanitizer. I was begging for more hand sanitizer, more

638
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: toilet paper, until we had plenty, and then I couldn't

639
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,959
Speaker 1: get rid of that stuff, like what kind of like

640
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: you know, back in the day, it was cool to

641
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 1: like go on Pinterest and like, oh, what kind of

642
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: cool stuff can you make with candy corn and some

643
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: nuts right in a jar and build a display? And

644
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: I'm I'm thinking, I'm gonna go on Pinterest what kind

645
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: of cool shit can we make with hand sanitizer in

646
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: toilet paper? Because I need to find new ways to

647
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: sell it, you know.

648
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 2: And then you realize everyone's done with it.

649
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: But everyone's done. Everybody got clean. You know, when you

650
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 1: when you're at home working constantly and not going out

651
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: in the public, you get too clean, right, Is that

652
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: what it is?

653
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 2: I think?

654
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 3: So, I know I never experienced that, but I would

655
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 3: imagine it's got here's what you missed out on.

656
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 1: Okay, perfect time for those limp rollers. People are at home,

657
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: they got their animals. They need to just be rolling

658
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: hair off of them constantly because it's just not used

659
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 1: to being around that much.

660
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 2: You know, Man, I think you're right. I was too

661
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 2: focused on the sanitizer.

662
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: Ye put it in the notes for the next pandemic.

663
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: You're gonna You're gonna want you're gonna need that one. Uh.

664
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 1: So you and I we've not only worked in the

665
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: same business, we have worked together at the same store.

666
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 1: It feels like it is three lifetimes ago. But there

667
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: was a time where I was running the dairy and

668
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: you were my number one in the dairy.

669
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, number one.

670
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: And uh do you remember when I carried the egg

671
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: in my pocket constantly?

672
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:28,959
Speaker 2: The egg Man?

673
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: Yeah it was the Eggman. Do you remember the egg Man?

674
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,240
Speaker 2: I remember, Okay, I'll tell you this. I remember vague

675
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 2: memories of the egg Man. I don't remember peak egg

676
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 2: Man like you.

677
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I lived it. This is like top five

678
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: moments of my life.

679
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 2: You know.

680
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 1: There's the when you get married, there's when your your

681
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: kids are born, there's when you're the Eggman. I mean,

682
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: there's just times that you want to fondly remember. But yeah,

683
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 1: I couldn't remember. I didn't know if you remembered what

684
00:34:58,880 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: that time was.

685
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 2: But I feel like I would have had people come

686
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 2: up to me saying, are you the Eggman's brother? But

687
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 2: I never got that, you know, and.

688
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 1: You didn't even get to be Eggnog. We had a

689
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: kid in the department nicknamed Eggnog because he would chug

690
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: a court of eggnog every time he worked.

691
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 2: Oh that sounds brutal.

692
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was brutal. It was brutal. Watch He always

693
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: asked if I wanted one, and I'm like, like a

694
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: drink and he's like, no, a court, And I go, no,

695
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: I don't want a court. Looking back on it, I'm like,

696
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 1: if I did that now with my crones, Oh, it

697
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 1: would be quite the situation overnight, I think with the

698
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 1: you know, rotten egg, dead body smell that would be

699
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 1: created by me, but it would be It would be

700
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: fun but funny story. Ashley has a cheat code on

701
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,720
Speaker 1: that where we just used my forty pound weight to blanket.

702
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 1: It just holds everything down. So it's worked out great.

703
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 2: So until giant reveal in the morning, everyone does at

704
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 2: the same time.

705
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 1: As long as she wakes up before me and gets

706
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: out of the bedroom and closes the door, all is safe.

707
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: All is safe. Poor cats, cats or chokes. But well,

708
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,799
Speaker 1: the Eggman is a is a story that I've I've

709
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: brought up on stage a number of times. So Johnny,

710
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: if you can roll that clip at the grocery store,

711
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: perfect starter job that only lasted twenty five years. One

712
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: of my favorite gates at the store. When I was

713
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 1: a team, was working in the dairy. You know, fill

714
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: the eggs, filled the milk. Easy gig, right, But it

715
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: left me a lot of time for shenanigans. One of

716
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: my favorite bits in the dairy was being the eggman.

717
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 1: So I'd wear these baggy cargo pants and all the

718
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 1: ones with the side pockets, and people would call me then,

719
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: y'all egg man, because I'd have an egg in my pocket.

720
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 1: People swing by and asked about the egg I'd pulled

721
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: out of the pocket and just kind of toss it around,

722
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: just kind of show it off like a party trick.

723
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: I ran the egg game for a few months until

724
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: people stopped calling out, hey man, because I just got

725
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 1: weird with the game pocket. But I think I was

726
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,839
Speaker 1: just a little ahead of my time because if I

727
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: was wearing the cargo pants now and had pockets full

728
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: of eggs, I could be outside on the corner and

729
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: I can make some serious money.

730
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 2: Man. That's what I mean. It's a it's a good role.

731
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 2: It's good.

732
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: It was. It was a good role.

733
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 2: But it's right up there with mayor.

734
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 1: I think I'm the I'm I'm the mayor of Going

735
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 1: and going and and the people. The people don't even know,

736
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:55,720
Speaker 1: but they will, they will pretty soon. You just wait

737
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: the big reveal. Yep, you just what a teaser you

738
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,280
Speaker 1: just gave the people, the mayor of going and going.

739
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: We just we haven't hit you know, prime like, uh,

740
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,720
Speaker 1: voting what I'm saying, voting season?

741
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:14,399
Speaker 2: What is it?

742
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: It's okay, it's okay. I'm getting older. Sometimes I forget.

743
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 2: You're supposed to just watch news.

744
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: I'm at the age where this should have mattered way

745
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 1: more than what it just did in this brief moment.

746
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: But anyways, back to the things that really matter, which

747
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: is shoplifting. So something that you and I have encountered

748
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 1: many and many and many at times is the old shoplifter.

749
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's people when people think of it, and

750
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: it's evolved, right because people used to think at the

751
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: grocery store, the shoplifter was the high school kid with

752
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: the backpack, which is still around, but it's just that's

753
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: a lost art. Now it's the folks with the grocery

754
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:01,760
Speaker 1: carts full of tide that they're gonna e on eBay

755
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: and they're just walking right out. Yeah, there's no hiding it.

756
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: It has become so you hear major retailers all the time.

757
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 2: I know.

758
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 1: Walmart and Kroger have both said that that is a

759
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 1: been an impact on their earnings because they've had so

760
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 1: much walk out, you know, at their stores, and it's

761
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: just crazy. But what we're not supposed to do, obviously,

762
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:32,760
Speaker 1: is to go after the shoplifters just because of safety anymore.

763
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: But you know, obviously you want to retain your goods.

764
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 1: I want to say that I'm a proud pepper spray survivor.

765
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 1: In one of these instances, they.

766
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 2: Hit your like square one.

767
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so full grocery cart full of goods, birthday

768
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: cake on the top. I wanted my grocery back, yep.

769
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: And I asked for the car. I said, giving my

770
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 1: cart back, and she said no, and I was like, well,

771
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 1: I'm taking my car. And I pulled a cart and

772
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 1: she pulled out the pepper spray and luckily I saw

773
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: the pepper spray or something coming of a person. I

774
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 1: kind of turned my head and I just got soaked

775
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 1: on the side and the back of my head, like

776
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: soaked right.

777
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 2: For like ten seconds. String she emptied the can.

778
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, she emptied the can on me. And the thing

779
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: is I was turned right, so at that moment, it

780
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,840
Speaker 1: wasn't in my eyes. And I laughed and I'm like, ha,

781
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: you're you're out of pepper spray. Now what are you

782
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: gonna do? And I took that car and I grabbed

783
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: my phone. I'm like, I'm calling the police. Well she

784
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: takes off running, so she gets away, right. I call

785
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 1: the police and they're all, you know, they're looking for

786
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 1: somebody running through the neighborhood. And I have my groceries back.

787
00:40:55,960 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: I thought it was funny, except for I had long

788
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: hair then, and I'm outside and it's windy and I'm

789
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: full of pepper spray. So the pepper spray, you know,

790
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: instantly gets on my face and in my eyes. And

791
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 1: I come inside and I'm I'm I bring in this

792
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 1: grocery cart and I'm like, you don't get it ready.

793
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: The police are coming and they're like what happened. I'm like,

794
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: I got pepper sprayed, and everybody's like, oh my god,

795
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: what happened. I'm like, I got pepper's braid. I just

796
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 1: told you. And so I've never been pepper spray before,

797
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:30,319
Speaker 1: have you? No?

798
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 2: Never?

799
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 1: I don't want to either, No, don't do it, but

800
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 1: I did so I didn't know what to do. So

801
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, I'm gonna wait. I'm gonna wait for

802
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:39,720
Speaker 1: the police. Maybe the police need to smell the pepper

803
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: spray or something because I've just been assaulted.

804
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:44,320
Speaker 2: You didn't do anything.

805
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 1: There's nothing I could do. No I needed to wait

806
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 1: it out.

807
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 2: Just shove water in your face or something.

808
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 1: Well, we have those I washing stations, you know, so

809
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 1: I I did, like, but my hands, you know, they

810
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: touched my hair. So I'm just I'm trying to be careful.

811
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: I'm just had a dab, a little bit, just a

812
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 1: small dab, and then I get it just enough so

813
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,760
Speaker 1: I can kind of open my eyes and it hurts

814
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: like it just it's just an unbearable pain. And you know,

815
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,439
Speaker 1: you know when you ate that hot chip, the one

816
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 1: Chip Challenge, and you know how that felt coming out awful?

817
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,320
Speaker 1: Those were my eyeballs. Those were my eye balls.

818
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:22,280
Speaker 2: Okay.

819
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 1: So I'm talking to the police and they're like, hey,

820
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: you gotta wash yourself like you you're covered in pepper

821
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: spray and you're walking around this place, and I'm like,

822
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 1: what do you want to do. I've never been pepper sprayed,

823
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 1: and you know, side note, I did a little side

824
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: note on this. I had an armed police officer or

825
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: security guard or whatever they are in the building. What

826
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 1: that did nothing for me? You know what this person did.

827
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: This person took notes and this person made sure to

828
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 1: ask me every question in the book when I came

829
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 1: back with the goods. But they were not there to

830
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 1: help me when I was getting attacked.

831
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 2: But you were trying to become a video on YouTube.

832
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 2: They were. They were trying to avoid that situation.

833
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: Oh man, I that would have been that would have

834
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 1: been a funny video. But so the police. Luckily I

835
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: did wait and talk to them, because they did give

836
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 1: me a warning that that helped me immensely, which is

837
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: wash it all out right, get soap, water, get get

838
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: it all out. But be careful because the next morning,

839
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: when you wash your hair and get it wet again,

840
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 1: it reactivates. Oh no, I would not have known that,

841
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: and I would have just have been a washing and

842
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 1: probably felt that burn all over again.

843
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,319
Speaker 2: So well, so what are you supposed to do?

844
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: You just gotta be careful, wash your hair out like

845
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: you do the first time. Just don't touch your eyes,

846
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: you know, be careful, and it'll it'll eventually come out.

847
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: But it reactivates, at least that first time, and I

848
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 1: know my head was soaked, so.

849
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 2: You know that's crazy.

850
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the break. We're just we're working grocery stores.

851
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 2: You know, that's did you get a metal for those not?

852
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 1: I did not, But you know a couple of months

853
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 1: later that was one of the final straws with me,

854
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 1: and I ended up leaving that company. But we won't

855
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 1: get into that. Yeah, but that's.

856
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 2: Nie pulled on me one time.

895
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 1: good at that point. Oh man, that's funny. At the

896
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:55,279
Speaker 1: first story we worked out when we worked together Sunday mornings,

897
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: uh at one at one of the jobs that I

898
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,440
Speaker 1: did there, I would be the heist manager charge. And

899
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: I was not by any means a high manager, but

900
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 1: on Sunday mornings, I was a high manager in charge,

901
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 1: right because everybody wanted it off. So I'm at customer

902
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: service and I think I'm just going over maybe a

903
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 1: list of employees that are coming in that day, and

904
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 1: just kind of getting the game plan. And this customer

905
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 1: comes up and he's got a rolled up newspaper and

906
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: he goes, you want this, and I go the news.

907
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know. At that time, I loved

908
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 1: reading I still love reading the newspaper, but back then

909
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: I just truly did. And I'm like, no, I'm good.

910
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 1: I got the paper and he opens it and there's

911
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 1: a gun. There's a handgun.

912
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

913
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 1: And I go whoa and he goes, hey, is not mine.

914
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: He goes, do you want it? It was in the bathroom,

915
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, shoot. So I take it from

916
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 1: him in the newspaper and it turns out the armored

917
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 1: guard who had just been in there to pick up

918
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: the money, went to the bathroom and he took his

919
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 1: gun off and he forgot it in the bathroom.

920
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's.

921
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 1: At first I'm like, holy cow, I'm being robbed. And

922
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 1: then once that went away and it was truly like

923
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 1: an accident, then I'm like, you know, young me again,

924
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: I'm not, by any means an important person in this building,

925
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,879
Speaker 1: but I'm the most important in that day. So I've

926
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 1: got a little bit of bravado about me. And I

927
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:25,839
Speaker 1: call the guy and I'm just like, no, he came

928
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: back for it. That's right. Because I was gonna call

929
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 1: him and he came back looking for it. I go,

930
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: you're looking for this, and I gave him so much

931
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 1: shit for that, and I'm like, I could call your

932
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:41,880
Speaker 1: boss and I thought I was hot. Shit, I'm like,

933
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 1: don't you worry. I thought I was gonna be my

934
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,120
Speaker 1: pants about five minutes ago because of this guy. But whatever,

935
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure he was too. Oh yeah, old man. Well,

936
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: I'm so this is the part of the show where

937
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 1: I've I've got some new material, let's say, and I

938
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: just want to see if maybe you think it's gonna

939
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:08,759
Speaker 1: work on stage, maybe you've got some ideas. Feel free

940
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:11,800
Speaker 1: to laugh if it's funny, okay, but we're working here,

941
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 1: so we're we're gonna see if if this has any

942
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,560
Speaker 1: potential to be used. Okay, does that make sense?

943
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 2: Sounds absolutely Okay.

944
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 1: So you know who doesn't love the holidays, right, But

945
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 1: there's always that like holiday depression that hits some folks

946
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 1: after because there's the big hot you know, the big ups,

947
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:36,239
Speaker 1: and then afterwards there's really nothing. And some folks, you know,

948
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,600
Speaker 1: relate it to the weather because it's kind of a

949
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:40,640
Speaker 1: drowning type of year, you know. Wherever you get that

950
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:45,239
Speaker 1: post holiday depression. Not me, Like I get the depression,

951
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,279
Speaker 1: but it's just because I missed the attention caring that

952
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:56,240
Speaker 1: I'm around, you know, Like he goes see family at Christmas,

953
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,919
Speaker 1: they're like, Jeremy, how have you been? And they didn't

954
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 1: say a word to me the three hundred and sixty

955
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 1: whatever days of the year, But the holidays are fun

956
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 1: because they're like, hey, you're alive. I get it.

957
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,000
Speaker 2: I get it. You're gonna have to work on that one.

958
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 1: But is there something to that one? Okay?

959
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 2: All right, that's the real thing. There's a lot of people.

960
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 1: Is that Is that a real thing? It's it's it's

961
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,919
Speaker 1: comparable your dad. You you probably experienced this too. When

962
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 1: dad comes home from work. It's an event. Right, you

963
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: open the door Dad's home, and you know, paying the

964
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 1: age of the kids are coming up. They're tackling you

965
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: and they're throwing stuff at you, and it's like a

966
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 1: whole thing. You're picking up the kids and you're swinging

967
00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: them around.

968
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:35,799
Speaker 2: Oh.

969
00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:40,040
Speaker 1: I mean that lasts until I see something that's like

970
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 1: obviously wrong in the house and I'm like, hey, are

971

Speaker 2: Or yeah?

973
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: And then I remember again and they're like, oh, shoot,

974
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:53,839
Speaker 1: Dad's hold for six minutes a day.

975
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I get that. I get that post Dad's

976
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 5: home depression, I get that kind of daily Yeah. Okay,

977
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,839
Speaker 5: let's see, so let's see.

978
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,839
Speaker 1: Okay, So one of the funniest Twitter followers I've seen

979
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 1: is Magic Johnson. He you know who Magic Johnson is.

980
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 3: Right day he survive things exactly right.

981
00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 1: But he's also a very good businessman. He's very prominent,

982
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 1: you know. Now, he's an owner of the Washington Commanders.

983
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,200
Speaker 1: He's a part owner of the LA Dodgers. He's very

984
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: prominent still in the Los Angeles Lakers organization. He tweets sparingly,

985
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:40,600
Speaker 1: but when he does tweet, it's generally in support of

986
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 1: somebody or something. Right, but he's always a day or

987
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: two behind, like you know, like when Lebron breaks the

988
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 1: next record or whatever, everybody is all over it that day.

989
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Magic will come in two days later as

990
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 1: if it just happened. And I have to wonder if

991
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:05,279
Speaker 1: maybe that's a symptom of the eights, Like is that

992
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: something that maybe hasn't been diagnosed yet, something I gotta

993
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:15,239
Speaker 1: look at though, right, I feel like that is that

994
00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:16,400
Speaker 1: good eight survivor?

995
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 3: And you give me a sound like I should not

996
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 3: have said it, and then you went there.

997
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 1: All right, I did go there. Well, I didn't want

998
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: to show my cards like too soon.

999
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 2: Oh I didn't mean to do that. That's good.

1000
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,879
Speaker 1: There's something though, Is there something to that one?

1001
00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:34,400
Speaker 2: Because as somebody who does not follow Magic.

1002
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:39,839
Speaker 3: Johnson, I just thought it's hilarious that that's just good

1003
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:40,720
Speaker 3: stuff right there.

1004
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:47,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's something. But I think there's something to the

1005
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 1: to the eighth symptom, but I don't know.

1006
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 2: I like it, Yeah, yeah, I like it.

1007
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 1: Okay, So you've seen the movie Weekend at Birnings.

1008
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 2: Oh I love it.

1009
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 1: Okay, great movie.

1010
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:56,879
Speaker 3: Right.

1011
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,719
Speaker 1: There's the two guys and they're at the party with

1012
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 1: their Bernie and then Bernie ends up dying. Yeah, he's dead,

1013
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:09,920
Speaker 1: and they drag him along everywhere as if you know,

1014
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,320
Speaker 1: he's still alive so they can enjoy this beach house

1015
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: and and kind of live this lavish life that they

1016
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:19,120
Speaker 1: didn't have before. So I'm watching it with Ashley and

1017
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:20,960
Speaker 1: she's being seen it for the first time, and she's like,

1018
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 1: you know what's unrealistic? Unrealistic about that movie? And I'm like,

1019
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:36,919
Speaker 1: I don't know. The decomposing body, like she's talking about

1020
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,239
Speaker 1: them using them like a puppet and then nobody would

1021
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 1: notice that. I'm like, how about the rotting body that

1022
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 1: they're dragging around? That thing would be shipping all over

1023
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:48,360
Speaker 1: himself anymore realism in the movies.

1024
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 2: The whole movie has been carrying a dead guy. And

1025
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:59,879
Speaker 2: she says, you know what, that's what I'm saying. That's good.

1026
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,359
Speaker 4: That is good, all right, So there might be there

1027
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 4: might be something there, all right, wild, okay, all right,

1028
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 4: let me see I got some I got some other stuff.

1029
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:28,040
Speaker 2: Here, m keep your stuff and like a notes file.

1030
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm flipping through it, and some of it I

1031
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 1: could probably get more.

1032
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 2: Overnight. Well half of it is magic, Johnson aids related.

1033
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:47,600
Speaker 1: I've got so much stuff. Oh man, you don't even

1034
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:49,799
Speaker 1: know it's And that's the thing. You don't know. Like,

1035
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 1: first of all, you don't know if like younger audience

1036
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 1: even knows who Magic Johnson is. And then then you

1037
00:53:56,080 --> 00:54:00,239
Speaker 1: have to know or hope that they no that he

1038
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,719
Speaker 1: has AIDS or has HIV that could turn into AIDS. Right,

1039
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,800
Speaker 1: and then he's had this for how long? How's he

1040
00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,520
Speaker 1: still living? I don't know. I don't want to hate

1041
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,040
Speaker 1: on the guy because I love him, but man, he's

1042
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:12,879
Speaker 1: two days late on everything. It's because of the aides.

1043
00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:13,920
Speaker 1: I will stand by that.

1044
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 2: Well, you don't really hear about the HIV anymore. The kids,

1045
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:19,319
Speaker 2: the kids don't know.

1046
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 1: The kids don't know.

1047
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 2: I know the streets are too safe.

1048
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 1: Okay, So I'm gonna leave you with this last one. Okay, Okay, So, uh,

1049
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:30,600
Speaker 1: you know sports better you you bet? You bet sports.

1050
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:37,279
Speaker 1: They're the only people that are never wrong. Like, they

1051
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: never lose. It's never their fault, right, because if the

1052
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,760
Speaker 1: coach would have called the right play with two minutes

1053
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 1: left and the fourth, if that kicker would have made

1054
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:52,719
Speaker 1: the field goal to cover the plus three, I would

1055
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,760
Speaker 1: have won my bet, right.

1056
00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 2: Is uh? This is fact?

1057
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 1: This is fact. No nobody who's betting a game is going, man,

1058
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:23,919
Speaker 1: I got that one wrong. Like that's true. It's always man.

1059
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:27,160
Speaker 1: If that freaking fat kicker wouldn't have made that field goal,

1060
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:30,800
Speaker 1: the missoo wouldn't have won, Like you know, like that's

1061
00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 1: just true, that's just how it works. But you know

1062
00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: it's it's Uh, it's funny because gamblers are so smart.

1063
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,879
Speaker 1: But when you all people when they're driving like around town,

1064
00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:45,880
Speaker 1: they're they're super smart too. They instantly become city planners.

1065
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:48,040
Speaker 1: You know how many times have you been in a

1066
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 1: car with somebody and they're like, man, I don't know

1067
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: if I'd have built that there kind of an odd

1068
00:55:55,120 --> 00:56:00,560
Speaker 1: spot for Walgreens. Huh. Do we really need three banks

1069
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:05,080
Speaker 1: all three different corners? I don't know if I've done that.

1070
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,560
Speaker 1: Did we really need two roundabouts here by the high school?

1071
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 1: I don't think So. There's just something about being in

1072
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: the car and you're just instantly a qualified city planner.

1073
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, you think there's anything with this.

1074
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:24,239
Speaker 2: I think I think there is work. I think there's
