Speaker 2: Do you hear that, Bruty? Yes, you're slapping yourself on
Speaker 2: the face.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I gotta wake up, wake up, wake up,
Speaker 3: wake up. I'm on vacation, bro, And I'm not used
Speaker 3: to this. See at what are you talking about? You
Speaker 3: worked this morning?
Speaker 2: I didn't know. I didn't. Oh, you were on vacation
Speaker 2: as of yesterday. Yesterday. Yeah, Oh, that's why you were
Speaker 2: out partying last night. I was Instagram. I was out
Speaker 2: partying last night. But the problem is, it's crazy because
Speaker 2: on days that I get up at four in the
Speaker 2: morning and I have a full day, and I go
Speaker 2: to work and I come back, I'm usually okay for
Speaker 2: a good part of the afternoon, and then I peter
Speaker 2: out toward evening. But here we are. When you when
Speaker 2: you say you petered out towards evening, is that I
Speaker 2: mean you tried to ask your own d exactly, Okay,
Speaker 2: But on.
Speaker 3: A day like this where I wake up at ten
Speaker 3: o'clock in the morning, I'm only like four or five
Speaker 3: hours into my day when we're recording this, and I'm
Speaker 3: already tired.
Speaker 2: So why is it like that? Why do you get
Speaker 2: tired when you don't when you get too much sleep?
Speaker 2: Is that right? Does that make sense? I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean I woke up around the same time today.
Speaker 2: I'm on vacation as well as you know, are you. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's a permanent vacation, as Aero Smith would say. And
Speaker 2: I'm not There are days I'm tired in the afternoon. Yeah,
Speaker 2: because you're doing a lot more. You're doing stuff like
Speaker 2: your job doesn't involve a lot of activity. You stand
Speaker 2: around in radio and talk. Now you know you're up,
Speaker 2: you're walking around the house. You may have gone out
Speaker 2: for a little while. Your body's not used to this
Speaker 2: exercise as people call it. You should get one of
Speaker 2: those watches and account how many steps you took today.
Speaker 2: It's probably more than you normally did. Well.
Speaker 3: Let me say, oh, that reminds me, bro I did
Speaker 3: something that I've never done in my life before a
Speaker 3: few days ago. And uh, go ahead, math, yeah, hold
Speaker 3: on a second, way, hold on, Hey, Siri, turn off
Speaker 3: the kitchen lights.
Speaker 2: Thanks, thank you, Siria had to turn off the lazy
Speaker 2: You're a lazy bastard. You look at a one bedroom apartment. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I told Siri to turn my lights off. Your
Speaker 2: light switches are never more than three steps away, and
Speaker 2: you have everything on voice activity. My kitchen lights are
Speaker 2: in my kitchen, But you expect me to stop the
Speaker 2: podcast and go close shut the lights off myself. No,
Speaker 2: I just expect you to turn them off or not
Speaker 2: care about them, being on energy conservation. I don't want
Speaker 2: to like bro the guy. The guy who leaves his
Speaker 2: car running when he gets gas is now worried about
Speaker 2: the lights in his kitchen for an hour. Yeah that's me.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well yeah, yeah, so you'll be proud of me, Brodie,
Speaker 2: I did something I did not, but go ahead, I
Speaker 2: did a thing. So you know. I've been working out
Speaker 2: twice a week with a personal trainerting quotes. Yeah, oh no, No.
Speaker 2: He puts me to work when I'm there, but I
Speaker 2: refuse to go above that threshold of two times a week.
Speaker 2: I refuse for whatever reason, I don't know. I don't
Speaker 2: want to give him that much time. And he's always
Speaker 2: been saying, in your spare time when you're not with me.
Speaker 2: You have a full gym up in your apartment building.
Speaker 2: Why don't you work out in your building on your
Speaker 2: own when you're not with me in other days? Like
Speaker 2: the kind of the alternate days? Okay? He asked that
Speaker 2: with a straight face. He asked you, like, whoa a
Speaker 2: Scary Jones? Why this person I see in the gym
Speaker 2: and I know very well? Now? Why don't you work
Speaker 2: out in the gym in your building? How long have
Speaker 2: you lived in that building? Scary? Seven years? Seventeen years,
Speaker 2: seventeen years? Have you ever been in the gym ever?
Speaker 2: Love me? No, I have with William Sam's husband, the
Speaker 2: one who went into the sauna together, remember that one?
Speaker 2: All right, right, that doesn't really count yet. No, No, I've worked.
Speaker 3: No, I've no, no, but I've worked out with him
Speaker 3: up there. I've had personal trainers here over the years,
Speaker 3: but I never stuck with it well anyway. For the
Speaker 3: first time ever, I took it upon myself to say
Speaker 3: to get into some gym clothes and go up the
Speaker 3: elevator into the gym and work out on my own, unguided,
Speaker 3: and do my own things. And I sat there for
Speaker 3: forty five minutes.
Speaker 2: In when you got on the elevator and you pushed
Speaker 2: the button to go up to the gym. Yeah, were
Speaker 2: you exhausted? Did you have to stop and take a
Speaker 2: break on like floor twelve and just relax?
Speaker 3: You are something else, You are a character. No, so
Speaker 3: I so I had my I did my own workout.
Speaker 3: I went on the rower for five minutes.
Speaker 2: I did some weight training on my own, and then
Speaker 2: I went back to the rower for another five minutes.
Speaker 2: And I worked out for about thirty to forty minutes
Speaker 2: on my own, without any guidance, without anyone telling me
Speaker 2: what to do, without having to keep an appointment. How
Speaker 2: many reps of the elevator doors opening and closing did
Speaker 2: you do? Open? Close, open, close? One more rep? Did
Speaker 2: you do? Ten? Some of the elevated doors opening, closing?
Speaker 2: Make all the fun I will? Did you really row
Speaker 2: the boat for five minutes? Did you you did the
Speaker 2: rowing machine?
Speaker 1: I did?
Speaker 2: I did about nine hundred meters each one each time? Wow? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I just nonstyle with the rower. When you
Speaker 2: got back to your apartment, what did you eat a yogurt? Yeah?
Speaker 2: That's it? Are you you thought I was gonna say? Oh?
Speaker 2: And I and I jumped into some entimens donuts. Yes,
Speaker 2: such some devil dogs. Right, ah, very good. Well listen,
Speaker 2: you're you're this is uh it's a start, it's a start.
Speaker 2: You're you're approaching third quarter scary. Yeah. Yeah, well well
Speaker 2: hold on a second. No, no, we are approaching the
Speaker 2: third quarter on the calendar. My my mistake, my mistake.
Speaker 2: We're approaching third quarter. Yeah, this is the danger zone, Brody, Yes,
Speaker 2: I know, thank you. Uh Hi, it's the highway to
Speaker 2: the danger zone. Thank you. Uh are you trying, Kenny Loggins?
Speaker 2: Are you trying to avoid third quarter skary? Yes? And
Speaker 2: now are you trying to avoid third and fourth? Are
Speaker 2: you trying to push off third to fourth so that
Speaker 2: fourth is only as bad as third? That's what I'm
Speaker 2: trying to do.
Speaker 3: Well, the lofty goals, that's my beginning goal, But the
Speaker 3: ultimate goal would be to stay second quarter, maybe second
Speaker 3: and a half right through the fourth quarter. If I
Speaker 3: can do that, I actually stand a great chance next
Speaker 3: in January, when I do the detox, that that I'll
Speaker 3: actually see better results. But but it's so difficult this
Speaker 3: time of year.
Speaker 2: If if you were to start next year as second
Speaker 2: and a half quarter skiers, yes, you could conceivably then
Speaker 2: lose the weight and get down to like negative first
Speaker 2: quarter skiars. That is, you could be, you could almost
Speaker 2: be You'll almost be brody thin at that point. Brody thin,
Speaker 2: that's right? Is that a trademarked word. Trademark friend? It is? Now? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'd like, yeah, you could be bru thin. Yes, I
Speaker 2: don't know. Well, here's the but.
Speaker 3: But here's why it's it's dangerous because I'm now e'mbarking
Speaker 3: on a two and a half week vacation. Right, we
Speaker 3: don't go back till July seventh to the morning show,
Speaker 3: and we we've been lost since yesterday morning. And now
Speaker 3: what starts happening? All the drinking events start piling up,
Speaker 3: the dinners, barbecues. My buddy will is having a big
Speaker 3: barbecue Saturday night. You think I'm gonna hold back?
Speaker 2: You think last Saturday he had an indoor barbecue with
Speaker 2: some with some ribs. They did rib racks of ribs.
Speaker 2: And then tonight we got our friend UK Chris is
Speaker 2: in town and yeah, I like Chris.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he wants to go to dinner tonight. By
Speaker 3: the way, you want to come to dinner with us?
Speaker 3: He just texted me, I got No, I have a
Speaker 3: pick to pickleball. No, it'll be too late to go
Speaker 3: to dinner with you.
Speaker 2: No, won't. The night's just because I can't. I got
Speaker 2: a you got pickleball? But thank you? But that and
Speaker 2: that wasn't even that wasn't even the last minute thing
Speaker 2: because he texted me that's his last minute. Well for me,
Speaker 2: you're asking me last minute. But I'm not blaming youbody.
Speaker 2: Let's move on right. So the point is, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: be eating tonight. You know. No, wait a minute, you
Speaker 2: said you're having a barbecue Will's place. When I called
Speaker 2: you on Tuesday to see about doing slice time, you
Speaker 2: were in the car with Will and I said, oh,
Speaker 2: where are you guys going to eat? And you were like,
Speaker 2: how funny you should ask? We're going to a barbecue.
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: That was?
Speaker 2: That was That was Frank Locerto's barbecue. It was a
Speaker 2: barbecue though it's a barbecue season. But don't say it's
Speaker 2: because you're on vacation. You were. You were at a
Speaker 2: barbecue two days ago during the week. Yeah, it was
Speaker 2: on a Tuesday. Got the grill slices like that. Slices
Speaker 2: have no idea who Frank is you're like, oh, that
Speaker 2: was Frank, Baba bas Frank barbecue. Okay, okay, barbecue, And
Speaker 2: and I realized that the word barbecue means something very
Speaker 2: different than it does for some people.
Speaker 3: Like like grilling. People say, what I consider a barbecue
Speaker 3: is grilling for much of the South and other parts
Speaker 3: of the country. So we were, we did grilling, and
Speaker 3: we're going to be doing grilling on Saturday night. Barbecue
Speaker 3: does not mean barbecue. Is what a form of yah barbecue.
Speaker 2: In the in the South, and if you're from the South,
Speaker 2: I know I'm a little off, but they call it
Speaker 2: when you cook, when you cook food that's actually bought,
Speaker 2: like barbecue, ribs, barbecue, chicken. It's a style of cooking.
Speaker 2: Whereas up north, anything on the grill is barbecue, hot dogs, hamburgers,
Speaker 2: barbecue on barbecue, you barbecue and going to the backyard
Speaker 2: for barbecue. That's what it is in the North. In
Speaker 2: the South, we actually have to have to cook food
Speaker 2: that is considered barbecue food. Up North, you could put
Speaker 2: shrimp on a grill. You're like on barbecue and shrimp, right.
Speaker 3: But in the North, if you're in the South, if
Speaker 3: you're eating hot dogs and hamburgers.
Speaker 2: You're grilling. Oh, we're gonna put it thrown on the grill,
Speaker 2: chicken on the grill. But for us, Yeah, when I
Speaker 2: when I say barbecue, we did a barbecue on Tuesday,
Speaker 2: I got another one on Saturday. That means that means
Speaker 2: everything steaks, chicken. Yeah, could be you're gonna have so
Speaker 2: you're gonna have to work out a lot more than
Speaker 2: once in your building. Well, I think you're gonna hold
Speaker 2: off the ocean of the third quarter scary coming in
Speaker 2: because that tsunami's coming. My friend, You're a whole lot
Speaker 2: of ketchup and potato salad on it mustard on its
Speaker 2: way coming your away. My friend, I don't know what
Speaker 2: to do. I mean I slowed down, to slow down.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe only go to six barbecues this week while
Speaker 2: you're on vacation. I want you to do on vacation.
Speaker 2: I went to the Island of Barbeque. That's what I
Speaker 2: went to the ABC Islands. I went to BBQ BBQ
Speaker 2: right all right, yeah, thank you? Podcast with Scary and
Speaker 2: Rode Scary. I want to I want to tell you
Speaker 2: about a lunch I had yesterday. But but before I
Speaker 2: do that, I need your opinion and the slices opinion.
Speaker 2: This is an opportunity to leave talkbacks. Now. This is
Speaker 2: your homework assignment. I messaged a guy that we worked
Speaker 2: with a long time ago. I'm friendly with him on Facebook.
Speaker 2: Good guy. I haven't spoken to him in a few years,
Speaker 2: but you know, interact on Facebook a little bit. And
Speaker 2: I messaged him asking him for a favor. First, I said, first,
Speaker 2: I messaged him and I messaged him through Facebook Messenger,
Speaker 2: so I don't have his phone number. He's new, he
Speaker 2: changed his number in the past few years. And I
Speaker 2: messaged him and I said, hey, man, can I ask
Speaker 2: you a question? I hate to bob they out of nowhere.
Speaker 2: I hope everything's good. He said, yeah, man, what's up.
Speaker 2: Great to hear from you. So I said, hey, I
Speaker 2: kind of need a favor from you. What do you
Speaker 2: think about doing this? Would you be able to do
Speaker 2: this for me? This favor doesn't matter what the favor is.
Speaker 2: And as soon as I hit send, I see his profile.
Speaker 2: His avatar in the left side popped up, which means
Speaker 2: he's on. Then I see the three dots he's typing,
Speaker 2: and it says he's typing, and he's typing and he's typing.
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I'm hoping he answers the question I asked,
Speaker 2: and he says he can do the favor for me.
Speaker 2: This is great. So I'm stating I'm all anxious. I'm like, oh, yes,
Speaker 2: what's this. He's doing me the favor. Its gonna be
Speaker 2: huge for me. I really need his favor. And then
Speaker 2: the dots are going, the dots are going, The dots stop,
Speaker 2: wait a minute, and then the dots start again. It's like, go, oh,
Speaker 2: he must have paused or he had everything what he
Speaker 2: was thinking, and the dots start. He's typing again, and
Speaker 2: he's typing. He's typing, he's typing, and then it stops. Now,
Speaker 2: underneath what I wrote it is his avatar, which shows
Speaker 2: me he read what I wrote. That was four hours ago.
Speaker 2: He has not responded, and I know he's not working
Speaker 2: because I know his work schedule. So my question is,
Speaker 2: did he need a couple of hours to like answer
Speaker 2: the question, find out the question I asked the answer
Speaker 2: to the question and didn't want to give me the
Speaker 2: wrong answer, Or does he not want to do me
Speaker 2: the favor and has to figure out how he's going
Speaker 2: to tell me that or ignore me if it was.
Speaker 2: If it was if it was anyone else, I would say,
Speaker 2: he needs some time to get it done. But because
Speaker 2: it's you, you ain't getting the favor done. He thought
Speaker 2: twice about that. Again, he thought twice about helping that
Speaker 2: he because he was clearly so. The initial the initial
Speaker 2: response was, h you got It's not like you just
Speaker 2: threw a question out and you waited for him to respond.
Speaker 2: It was basically you started a convo. So he had
Speaker 2: his phone in his hand, he had the mindset to
Speaker 2: go back and forth.
Speaker 3: With you on a couple of back and forth, and
Speaker 3: he just said, yes, absolutely, whatever you need, okay. And
Speaker 3: then you asked him and then you presented him what
Speaker 3: the favor was. I asked him a question.
Speaker 2: Answer to this question, yep, And and if you do
Speaker 2: know answer to that question, could you do me this favor?
Speaker 2: Would you mind doing me this favor? Well, do you
Speaker 2: mind sharing what the question was? If scared him? Asked
Speaker 2: your question? Because I know you're not You're not the
Speaker 2: smarter person on this podcast. I've gone out of my
Speaker 2: way to not say what it was right and your
Speaker 2: response is but that makes it not interesting. I think
Speaker 2: you should just tell everybody what the favor was, and
Speaker 2: I will judge based on the favor you asked if
Speaker 2: he's going to do you the film or not scary?
Speaker 2: If I want slices. Do you have a friend like
Speaker 2: this who doesn't take a fucking hint? Okay, so you
Speaker 2: don't want to be you don't want to Okay, So okay, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, Yes,
Speaker 2: based on based on what you said, which is very vague, okay,
Speaker 2: I I asked him if he had naked pictures of
Speaker 2: your girlfriend Robin, and then as a favor, I said,
Speaker 2: could you send me those naked pictures Brody with the
Speaker 2: clutch joke to save it and turn it all? Right,
Speaker 2: So here's here's what I want to say. Okay, based
Speaker 2: on based on what can you pick that up? Can
Speaker 2: you pick it up? And you get a chance, can
Speaker 2: you pick it up? Pick what up? The hint I dropped?
Speaker 2: Can you pick it up? You are an asshole? Okay,
Speaker 2: all that being said, based on what little info I
Speaker 2: have or the limited info, because we do have limited
Speaker 2: info here, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna dig. I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna dig. I'll tell you a little bit. I
Speaker 2: asked him to put in a good word for me
Speaker 2: about something. Okay, all right, fair enough, I say, hey,
Speaker 2: can you put a good word for me?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 2: So right now, okay, you've given me more to go on,
Speaker 2: and already I'm telling you based on that little knowledge
Speaker 2: I have. Yeah, he thought about what he thought of
Speaker 2: you as a character, as a person, and he said, no,
Speaker 2: I don't want to put in a good word for him.
Speaker 2: I don't because I don't have a good word to
Speaker 2: say about him. So now for sure, I'm leaning with
Speaker 2: this guy ghosted you, and you're not getting a He's
Speaker 2: not gonna do you a favor, all right. Well, here's
Speaker 2: the thing. I had a good relationship with him, uh huh,
Speaker 2: so other other than other than the fact he may
Speaker 2: not agree with me a lot on Facebook, in real life,
Speaker 2: we had a good relationship, gotcha, gotcha. I don't know
Speaker 2: if he doesn't want to do me this favor based
Speaker 2: on your Facebook relationship, right, or if he's basing it
Speaker 2: on our old relationship, which was a good one, our
Speaker 2: real life relationship. How long did you know this person,
Speaker 2: oh boy? Ten twelve years? When was the last time
Speaker 2: you had any real interaction with this person? Beat besides
Speaker 2: this dialogue? Oh maybe five or six years. So you
Speaker 2: came out of nowhere with hey, how you doing? I said,
Speaker 2: how you doing? Helpe all his gun? It's been a
Speaker 2: while based on your previous relationship. I don't know, Brody,
Speaker 2: I'm I want to say that.
Speaker 3: Maybe he said, rather than to respond to him, I'm
Speaker 3: just gonna go find out what I can do and
Speaker 3: then get back to him later. Which, yeah, But when
Speaker 3: you write that, when you writ yes, well, that's the thing.
Speaker 3: If he really felt he was going to help you,
Speaker 3: he would have. He would have said it right there,
Speaker 3: let be brb, hold my beer stand by right, something
Speaker 3: like that.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: The fact that he started meeting, he was having second
Speaker 3: thoughts as he wrote the text, and he took.
Speaker 2: Me about how do you how do ghost somebody? When
Speaker 2: I can see that you read my post and my
Speaker 2: message and I can see that you are typing, you
Speaker 2: can't ghost me. Then you can't be like, oh, bro
Speaker 2: I didn't see it. I saw that you saw it, right?
Speaker 2: But does he know you saw you saw does he
Speaker 2: know that you saw us? Because he knows how messenger
Speaker 2: works on Facebook Messenger, you can see the avatar goes
Speaker 2: underneath once you read it. He knows I saw him typing.
Speaker 2: Because he was typing, he knows how it works. So
Speaker 2: now it's a question of it is does he give
Speaker 2: a ship that you know that he you correct that
Speaker 2: you saw it. He knows, he knows that, he knows right,
Speaker 2: he knows that you know that he knows that you
Speaker 2: know he saw that. I know he knows right, you know,
Speaker 2: so if you know you know, but you know so,
Speaker 2: he so he probably he probably said, well, he doesn't
Speaker 2: want to help you that much that he's willing willing
Speaker 2: to ghost me, be embarrassed by it or not if
Speaker 2: he wants. If he wants to make sure I never
Speaker 2: asked him another favor, He's now made sure I never
Speaker 2: asked him another favor. He's like, oh, Brodie's gonna be
Speaker 2: so mad at me for not getting back to him.
Speaker 2: He'll leave me the fuck alone and never asked me
Speaker 2: for a favor again. Could it be an off chance
Speaker 2: that he was busy with family stuff? He said he
Speaker 2: wasn't working today, so maybe there was something in his
Speaker 2: family or he got he got distracted, and he's like,
Speaker 2: I can't give my full attention to his Now I'll
Speaker 2: come back to that because I do that sometimes sometimes
Speaker 2: I'm like in the middle of a conversation, yes, and
Speaker 2: then I just go, you know, go dark. But how
Speaker 2: long does it take when you're already typing for like
Speaker 2: thirty seconds to just say let me get back to you.
Speaker 2: It does hit?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well okay. So the question now is what
Speaker 3: do you follow up with? Or do you not follow
Speaker 3: up at all? Or do you throw in one of
Speaker 3: your brodeisms one of your like.
Speaker 2: Slide slices, Part two slices is that he never if
Speaker 2: he never writes back, do I be like, okay, thanks anyway,
Speaker 2: or hey, sorry, you know, I'm sorry if I was
Speaker 2: it was an imposition, or or do I be like
Speaker 2: cool man, thanks, Or do I put a ghost emoji
Speaker 2: because he ghosted me? Do I would just passive aggressive
Speaker 2: about it? Or like aggressive aggressive? You would just go
Speaker 2: ghost him back and never ask him another favor.
Speaker 3: Now, what I would do is I would send him
Speaker 3: the meme of the of the skeleton sitting there with
Speaker 3: his hand.
Speaker 2: His hand under his shin and you know, waiting.
Speaker 3: With his waiting, with with the five fingers on the desk,
Speaker 3: putting his fingers on the desk.
Speaker 2: Waiting, waiting, waiting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would send that or or just be snarky
Speaker 3: and be like, all right, great chat, great chat, good times.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, good times, Yeah, good time. Hey man, great
Speaker 2: catching up, great catching up, catching up. I don't know, man, Yeah,
Speaker 2: so that's my dilemma. Slices helped me out. Thanks. I
Speaker 2: don't know. I would. I gotta say I would feel
Speaker 2: filthy doing that to somebody, knowing that they I saw
Speaker 2: that I was texting them back and stops. Yes, I
Speaker 2: would at least cover my ass and say yeah, let
Speaker 2: me get back to you on that, and then ghost them.
Speaker 2: So this way the closure on the conversation. But to
Speaker 2: be moretal sentence, tell me you couldn't figure out the
Speaker 2: answer to the question, uh, and then tell me yeah,
Speaker 2: I couldn't help you out. I wasn't able to you know,
Speaker 2: to put in a good word for you for whatever.
Speaker 2: That's like taking a piss midstream. You cut yourself off.
Speaker 2: You're like gotta go when you're in the middle of
Speaker 2: maybe you're in the middle of a flow, you're in
Speaker 2: the middle of something, yes, or maybe you say, hey,
Speaker 2: I put in that good word for you. Just no,
Speaker 2: I would ever know one way or the other. That's
Speaker 2: the other thing. You can lie it lie through your teeth,
Speaker 2: and I don't know why he didn't change that route.
Speaker 2: I don't either. How little respect does he have for you?
Speaker 2: Then he's apparently apparently very little Jesus, apparently very very
Speaker 2: fucking little. It's I gotta tell you what happened. A
Speaker 2: couple of times. Let me hold on, let me update you,
Speaker 2: let me update you. Date. I'm looking on my phone.
Speaker 2: Still no comment. Okay, let's see if he comments back
Speaker 2: by the end of the podcast. How long was it?
Speaker 2: It was it three hours ago, four hours ago? Let
Speaker 2: me check, Yeah, three and a half hours ago. There
Speaker 2: is a slight chance he got interrupted and then went
Speaker 2: ahead to do the favor, to try and do the favor,
Speaker 2: and he'll get back to you later. I will see.
Speaker 2: All right, we need an update by Slice time on Monday. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 2: Slice time on the very remember that set a note
Speaker 2: very beginning of the Slice Time. The first thing you
Speaker 2: do is update us, and then we moved on. I
Speaker 2: won't have to update as a reminder because Slice is
Speaker 2: gonna leave talkbacks about this and that'll remind me for
Speaker 2: an hour. That's true. That's true. So thank you, slices man.
Speaker 2: A buddy of mine has been dating this girl for well,
Speaker 2: he was dating this girl for a few months. And
Speaker 2: he's not sex on the way, Dave. No, he is
Speaker 2: one of the Hoboken Well he's a satellite Hoboken satellite crew.
Speaker 2: He used to look at Hoboken and now he's moved away.
Speaker 2: But so he was with this girl. He's been playing
Speaker 2: the playing the you know, dating roulette. And he was
Speaker 2: with this girl for I would say three or four months.
Speaker 2: But it was more casual. It was more like, yeah, whatever,
Speaker 2: let's get together when we can. And you know, they'll
Speaker 2: do dinner, they'll do drinks, they'll smash, they'll go you know,
Speaker 2: over each other's house whatever. But she became too clingy
Speaker 2: for him. He does not want to get you know,
Speaker 2: to get married. He doesn't want to you know, have
Speaker 2: any of any of these feelings. He just wants to
Speaker 2: do what he does at his own pace, you know,
Speaker 2: like a lot of guys. Right. So he's casual and
Speaker 2: so he he's been uh with this girl back and
Speaker 2: forth on and north and and then he ghosted her
Speaker 2: about a week and a half ago, just ghosted her
Speaker 2: altogether and said it's not for me. Did she did
Speaker 2: she ask him to put in a good word for her,
Speaker 2: and then I think that's might have been what happened.
Speaker 2: But he felt she was too clingy, it was getting
Speaker 2: too serious. He doesn't want serious. She wanted to know
Speaker 2: where it was going one of they, you know, she
Speaker 2: was ready to move in with the guy. So so
Speaker 2: he started distancing himself until finally he faded away and
Speaker 2: started ghosting her. Now fast forward to it's better to
Speaker 2: burnout than fade away. Yeah, fast forward to last night.
Speaker 2: I went out with this guy and uh, oh I didn't.
Speaker 2: I didn't realize. Congratulations are exactly now you know who
Speaker 2: I am? Right, I went out with this guy. So
Speaker 2: the merse was my The merse was my clue. So
Speaker 2: I went to go hang out with him and we
Speaker 2: were we were at a at a party, at a
Speaker 2: at a restaurant barbecue oh right, okay, lounge, and we
Speaker 2: were chilling and he was chatting up maybe two three
Speaker 2: four different women. He's like, wow, this this place is
Speaker 2: a hotbed. There's so much tail in here. So he's like,
Speaker 2: and he's did he really say did he really say that?
Speaker 2: He called he called it tail? Yeah, Oh, this guy's
Speaker 2: a catch. Okay, he calls it ass. There's so much
Speaker 2: ass in here. You know. It was like it was like,
Speaker 2: you know, eight to one women to men, but it
Speaker 2: was it was an after work thing. It was like,
Speaker 2: you know, it wasn't late night bars and club it
Speaker 2: was you know, it was a professional crowd, upscale, and
Speaker 2: we were just kind of hanging out having some drinks,
Speaker 2: and you know, he's like chatting away at people here
Speaker 2: and there, and you know, we had some mutual friends
Speaker 2: in the room too, so we were, you know, talking
Speaker 2: to them. But he's he he's his one woman, and
Speaker 2: he's like, oh my god, she's hot, and he starts
Speaker 2: talking to her and chatting her up. And I think
Speaker 2: she happens to be popular on social media. I don't
Speaker 2: want he saw some tale that he liked.
Speaker 3: He saw some tale, Yeah, and she was on social
Speaker 3: media and she's pretty popular, and so he they're going
Speaker 3: back and forth and like, hey, get to know each other.
Speaker 2: And I'm hanging out there too. Of course I'm the
Speaker 2: third wheel. And he goes, oh shit, scary, like he
Speaker 2: backs away from the girl he's talking to for a second.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, here comes so and so the girl
Speaker 2: that I ghosted. I'm like, what what the fuck is
Speaker 2: she doing? She enters the room. Now, she had no clue,
Speaker 2: no prior knowledge that he was gonna be there.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no no, she had no idea.
Speaker 3: But because of the circles of friends, we run, we
Speaker 3: run in. It was she showed up there through somebody
Speaker 3: else and she happened to be coming to the same party.
Speaker 2: Wow. Well, oh shit did not go well because as
Speaker 2: soon as she enters the room, she was like a magnet. Hey,
Speaker 2: how you doing so? And so, oh my god, hug
Speaker 2: kiss like a suction cup, sat there and would not
Speaker 2: let him go. It's totally sandbagged this guy. And now
Speaker 2: he's like, hold on, hold on, hold on hard. Let's
Speaker 2: call him Pete, so I can Pete Pete. So Pete
Speaker 2: sees her, Yeah, and doesn't hide. He just stands there. Unlets,
Speaker 2: they're come up to it. It's a small room. It's
Speaker 2: you could only hide for so long. Wait, maybe you
Speaker 2: can get away with it for forty five minutes. At
Speaker 2: some point your paths are going to cross. This wasn't
Speaker 2: a moment. Yeah, And is she not acting like she
Speaker 2: knows he ghosted her. She's acting like, yeah, oh I
Speaker 2: just had Well that's the thing. I'm like, God, if
Speaker 2: I if you ghosted me and then I saw you,
Speaker 2: I'd be like, oh fuck yourself, bro, or like I
Speaker 2: don't want to deal with you. What the hell?
Speaker 3: But obviously she's got low self esteem and insecure, so she's.
Speaker 2: Like, oh no that's the case. Well why else would
Speaker 2: you be a boomerang and come right back in and
Speaker 2: go boom here I am and well like nothing and
Speaker 2: by the way, like nothing happened because I saw the
Speaker 2: initial interaction and I'm like, this does not look like
Speaker 2: how long had it been since they interacted about it?
Speaker 2: Two weeks? Okay? Maybe it's like the Seinfeld episode where
Speaker 2: George quits his job on Friday and then on Monday
Speaker 2: morning goes back to work as if he didn't quit
Speaker 2: and walks back in like nothing ever happened. Oh that's right,
Speaker 2: what a great episode.
Speaker 3: So she she's basically like a goldfish. She forgets everything,
Speaker 3: like you know, goldfish, as they say, has like a
Speaker 3: five second yes.
Speaker 2: Kay, And that's what we call you. We always say
Speaker 2: you're the goldfish. Well, if you're a goldfish in a
Speaker 2: bowl and you know you're circling the bowl, you say, oh, look,
Speaker 2: call you that analogy. It's a comedian. He's like, oh,
Speaker 2: look at treasure chest. Oh, look at treasure chest. Oh,
Speaker 2: look at treasure chest. Oh look at treasure chest, over
Speaker 2: and over.
Speaker 3: So that could be the type of person she is,
Speaker 3: where she just forgets or she lets it roll off
Speaker 3: of her.
Speaker 2: But anyway, I don't know what in what she thought
Speaker 2: would make him want to change his mind about her. Okay,
Speaker 2: so so did Pete say, like, listen, I kind of
Speaker 2: with aw the end of this. Did he say it
Speaker 2: into her? No, he got roped in sitting on the
Speaker 2: couch and talking to her for a good hour hour
Speaker 2: and a half, and every chance he got, well, she
Speaker 2: went to go get a drink or went to the bathroom.
Speaker 2: He's coming over to me, goes, Oh my god, I'm
Speaker 2: so miserable right now. Oh my god, this is awful.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, she's fucking she said, why doesn't he
Speaker 2: just tell you see the problem? She's cock blocking him
Speaker 2: though she com flocked him from it, from getting to
Speaker 2: one and all the other girls. No, he this was
Speaker 2: his prime time, This is Pete, and then prime time
Speaker 2: Pete was ready to go. Okay, He's like, you know,
Speaker 2: and he calls me this morning saying, dude, I had three,
Speaker 2: four or five different girls on the hook. I could
Speaker 2: have gotten these numbers here. I could have, but she
Speaker 2: fucking came in and she wouldn't tail blocked him. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so I wanted tail, he got no tail. No, I
Speaker 2: don't understand something. Are you telling me that this general
Speaker 2: or the generation we're in now, or the society we're
Speaker 2: in now, if you want to break up with someone,
Speaker 2: you just stop texting them, right, you just stop? You
Speaker 2: just ghost them? Yeah, but in person, he can't go
Speaker 2: old school and be like, listen, it's over between us.
Speaker 2: Like I ended it. It wasn't working. Why do you
Speaker 2: think I didn't invite into this party tonight? Why he
Speaker 2: what is he gonna do? He's gonna reghost her tonight?
Speaker 2: Like when she texted, he just won't respond. Well, apparently
Speaker 2: nothing happened to come over his house tonight. Well, I
Speaker 2: think that the offer was made, but he was not
Speaker 2: into it. He's like, fuck this, I'm out and that's it,
Speaker 2: and so he went back don't fuck this? Right? But
Speaker 2: I feel bad. The thing is this, I feel bad
Speaker 2: for her because I feel like she should have seen
Speaker 2: the writing on the wall, and just so you insulted
Speaker 2: her earlier and said she had low self esteem, and well.
Speaker 3: Why what other kind of person would just would take it?
Speaker 3: And well here's the I mean, her ego had to
Speaker 3: have been damaged by this.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying well, by the way, I'm not saying
Speaker 2: what he did was right either. I'm not saying it.
Speaker 2: But you've you've never been in a relationship where the
Speaker 2: other person didn't care for you as much as you
Speaker 2: cared for them and it didn't deter you. In other words,
Speaker 2: let's say they're like ambivalent towards you. They are five,
Speaker 2: there are six for you, they'll hang out with you, whatever,
Speaker 2: but your head over heels for them. You've never been
Speaker 2: in a relationship like that where, despite the fact that
Speaker 2: they didn't love you ten, you love them ten. I
Speaker 2: guess it's always uneven, right, I guess that's what causes problems.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I've I don't know, but either way,
Speaker 2: but the second it's damaged. Never you've never been in
Speaker 2: a relationship where you liked the other person more than
Speaker 2: you got the feeling they liked you in your whole life.
Speaker 2: Maybe I have, Yeah, maybe I have. Okay, Then did
Speaker 2: you have low self esteem or did you really like
Speaker 2: that person. I don't I really liked them, but I
Speaker 2: don't think I could. You can't change them. Logic would
Speaker 2: dictate that you cannot change somebody. There's no logic when
Speaker 2: it comes to love, because in your mind you can
Speaker 2: be better. You could be more like them, You can
Speaker 2: be more, uh in line with what they might like.
Speaker 2: You might try to change yourself, you might try change
Speaker 2: them be better. Well, you try to figure out what
Speaker 2: it is that they don't like that, what would make
Speaker 2: them like you more than bebe even you try everything
Speaker 2: when it comes to that, and it's love isn't rational.
Speaker 2: It takes a long time to realize like it ain't working,
Speaker 2: and even then you go, well it could have worked.
Speaker 2: And then like six months, lady, you're like, I wonder
Speaker 2: if I give it another shot and might work this time. Absolutely, dude,
Speaker 2: we were all we were all younger, we all had
Speaker 2: that ship when we were single.
Speaker 3: Come on, yeah, but I whatever, whatever, the case was
Speaker 3: ruined because this week's gonna be ruined because she's gonna
Speaker 3: call him this week. Of course, well she already called
Speaker 3: them like today. All right, you said she's gonna she
Speaker 3: invited him out. She invited him out today. I think
Speaker 3: I think to go to six flags.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. If they've got mutual friends or mutual circles,
Speaker 2: they're gonna run into each other barbecues and pool parties
Speaker 2: and she keeps showing up. Yeah, I think that's what's
Speaker 2: gonna happen. But I mean, look, I don't know. I
Speaker 2: guess you're right when you say that love is love
Speaker 2: is blind. I don't know. Player Pete, player Pete, Uh,
Speaker 2: maybe gets what he deserves. Maybe he shouldn't be stringing
Speaker 2: all these people along and spinning plates all over all
Speaker 2: over town, because sooner or later, one of those plates
Speaker 2: is gonna crack on your head. It's very true. Well,
Speaker 2: Pete is very Uh. Pete was distraught because he felt
Speaker 2: like it was an opportunity missed for him to Well
Speaker 2: what if he was in the process of getting Tail
Speaker 2: and she walked up and like interrupted him talking to Tail?
Speaker 2: What would he have done? Then?
Speaker 3: How would you have introduce her? Well, that's what you think.
Speaker 3: He was talking to somebody. He was at the moment,
Speaker 3: at that very moment. He yeah, he was.
Speaker 2: He was in the middle and said what oh hi Pete, Hey,
Speaker 2: how are you? What's up? And then what did he say?
Speaker 2: To the girl. He was looking at it the bar
Speaker 2: like talking nothing.
Speaker 3: Well, she just kind of drifted away because she took
Speaker 3: a hint that, oh they know each other, I'll let
Speaker 3: them catch up, and she walked away.
Speaker 2: Oh oh that's harsh. But you know what, I don't
Speaker 2: feel bad for Pete. You don't feel bad for I
Speaker 2: don't know, because he didn't have the decency to tell
Speaker 2: her I don't want to see you anymore. Well, that's
Speaker 2: hold on. He either ghosted her because he's a coward,
Speaker 2: or he ghosted her because he wanted to see if
Speaker 2: she'd come back, and then maybe three months from now
Speaker 2: or three two weeks from now, when he was horning
Speaker 2: on a Sunday, he might call her up and go, hey, sorry,
Speaker 2: I've been a little busy lately. Let's bang. I don't
Speaker 2: think he wanted to get rid of her completely. And
Speaker 2: now he's paying that price now he is. So it's
Speaker 2: his own damn fault because he's a he's player, Pete player,
Speaker 2: Pete prick. You have sympathy for Pete. You feel bad
Speaker 2: for Pete only in the sense that he was he
Speaker 2: had some chances last night to make some new relationships.
Speaker 2: And yes, the last one. Yeah, well that right, But
Speaker 2: that's how that that's how gen Z communicates with communicates,
Speaker 2: gen Z is pe gen Z No, but that's how.
Speaker 2: But that's how people communicate today. Is they just ghost
Speaker 2: but beyond all, be honest. Did Pete say to you
Speaker 2: I ghosted her and I planned on never talking to
Speaker 2: her again? Or did he say I ghosted her? Left
Speaker 2: the door? Probably left the door open. Then the door
Speaker 2: then the door swung back and hit him right in
Speaker 2: the ass, right, got hit in the ass. Don't don't
Speaker 2: don't look hit you in the way out.
Speaker 3: Don't you wish you were back in the dating game?
Speaker 3: PROTI don't you wish you could go back to your
Speaker 3: club days?
Speaker 2: No, I can. I can without a doubt say I
Speaker 2: don't miss it, and I I I don't think I
Speaker 2: would ever do that again. If given given the the
Speaker 2: unfortunate opportunity to be single again, I would I would
Speaker 2: not do that. You do have my You do have
Speaker 2: my curiosity peaked. You told me earlier today when we
Speaker 2: were on the phone, that you have a you found

Speaker 2: so let's let's go current. Speaking of current things, did
Speaker 2: you see the cover art for Sabrina Carpenter's new album
Speaker 2: that's coming out? No, but but I got a bunch
Speaker 2: of alerts today that everyone's talking about it. Let me
Speaker 2: it's called Her new album is called Man's Best Friend.
Speaker 2: And here is look, Brodie, take a look. That's the
Speaker 2: The album cover is heart in a in a short
Speaker 2: black dress with black heels on, and she is on
Speaker 2: all fours and on her knees and on all and
Speaker 2: with her yeah, with a guy in a suit standing
Speaker 2: over her, and her head is just a few inches
Speaker 2: away from his crotch, and he's got one hand he's
Speaker 2: got one hand on her hair pulling, and he's pulling
Speaker 2: her hair, so he's one hand in her pocket. So
Speaker 2: it's basically the leash.
Speaker 3: He's like almost like the leash is her hair being
Speaker 3: pulled and it's literally her on all fours.
Speaker 2: I gotta say that is one of the sexiest album covers,
Speaker 2: even though there's not a whole lot of skin or
Speaker 2: anything that is very suggestive, very sexual. I expect nothing
Speaker 2: less from Sabrina. It's very She's very fully dressed though,
Speaker 2: which is also surprising. But she's on all fours and
Speaker 2: like looking at the camera with this longing stare, and
Speaker 2: I gotta say, I've got no problem with it. And
Speaker 2: people are livid. This sets the women's movement back to
Speaker 2: the nineteen fifties. What does she think she's doing? Look
Speaker 2: at her? She's a disgrace.
Speaker 3: I gotta say, listen, artistic impression is artistic impression. Who
Speaker 3: the hell are you to be like commenting and the
Speaker 3: fact that it made you feel some sort of way
Speaker 3: is mission accomplished for Sabrina, because that's all she wants
Speaker 3: is a reaction. She's not but like and it's a
Speaker 3: play on words man's best friend, she's a dog's she's
Speaker 3: in a doggy style position, she's on all fours. But
Speaker 3: but people are saying, well, this, you know, this objectifies
Speaker 3: her or this makes her look like, you know, a
Speaker 3: possession looks like, oh, it's also.
Speaker 2: She's a dog now, or she's she belongs to this guy.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't have a problem with it,
Speaker 2: but I'm very liberal in my thoughts of you know, I,
Speaker 2: I don't know. You're an older guy looking at a
Speaker 2: hot blonde girl on her knees, thinking about how hot
Speaker 2: that picture looks. It's the problem. Okay, let me you
Speaker 2: ask me my opinion. Here's my opinion. Sabrina Corpenter is
Speaker 2: a sexual artist. She's she's a talented artist, but she's
Speaker 2: a sexual seen her concerts. Yes, we talked about the
Speaker 2: position everybody, and when she plays the song Juno, she
Speaker 2: does a new sexual position. I taught you that. I
Speaker 2: told you that, I know. But then after you taught
Speaker 2: that to me, I went to go look on TikTok
Speaker 2: to see as many videos in as many positions. Yes,
Speaker 2: I bet you did, Yes, I bet you did. And
Speaker 2: there's a lot of them. Okay, So here's my point.
Speaker 2: Sabrina Carpenter originally was a Disney style artist right Nickelodeon, Disney,
Speaker 2: appealing to young girls. Her audience, her lyrics, her fan
Speaker 2: base is not thirty forty fifty year old men looking
Speaker 2: at that album cover and fantasizing about getting a BJ
Speaker 2: from her, although some of us slipped through the cracks,
Speaker 2: and she does have some older fans, so I'm sure
Speaker 2: she does. I look you you had said six months
Speaker 2: ago or whatever it was, that Sabrina Carpenter is going
Speaker 2: to be as big as Taylor Swift, right, the next
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift. And my opinion, as I'm who understands the
Speaker 2: music industry, who is part of the industry for many
Speaker 2: years and it has daughters and whatever, is that is
Speaker 2: what is going to keep her from being the next
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift. Now, could she be the next Madonna, next
Speaker 2: Lady Gaga or you know, sex kitten whatever. Sure, but
Speaker 2: what puts Taylor Swift on that other level is that
Speaker 2: she appeals to everyone that she's supposed to right, and
Speaker 2: she's safe for parents to buy tickets to their concert. Concert.
Speaker 2: This is going to cost concert tickets from from more
Speaker 2: conservative families that are not going to want to send her. So, yes,
Speaker 2: she's a sex symbol of sex pot she barely is
Speaker 2: dressed on stage. You know, my kids would probably enjoy
Speaker 2: her concert. They like her, or two of my kids
Speaker 2: like her. I don't think that's going to help her
Speaker 2: with the fringes of the audience. Right. I understand she's
Speaker 2: not casting a wider net, like like a tailor, but
Speaker 2: I just can't believe so many people do I see
Speaker 2: anything that's wrong with it. How old is she twenty two,
Speaker 2: twenty three? Yeah, she didn't mid twenties. So yeah, so
Speaker 2: she taught to do that, she gets to do it.
Speaker 2: She's part of the Part of the problem is that
Speaker 2: Sabrina Coppinger looks like she's fifteen. I think that's on you.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know what I'm saying with the person
Speaker 2: who's She's not on me, that's on the person who
Speaker 2: takes exception to it, because I don't feel that she
Speaker 2: looked that way. You know what I'm saying is, I
Speaker 2: don't think people remember she's twenty three. I don't think
Speaker 2: people remember she's a woman. I don't think they remember
Speaker 2: she's twenty three, twenty four, whatever she is. I think
Speaker 2: they look at her and think she's seventeen eighteen from
Speaker 2: Nickelodeon or whatever. She's still a young girl and why
Speaker 2: she's doing But a lot of the backlash is is
Speaker 2: not that though a lot of the backlash is she's
Speaker 2: objectifying herself and she's making it terrible for a But
Speaker 2: if nick but if Nicki Minaj did it, or or
Speaker 2: what's the other way, Cardi B? No one would give
Speaker 2: her Josa cat they all, they all know one would,
Speaker 2: can't they all? No one would care. It's it's the
Speaker 2: fact that she's a seventeen year old looking white girl
Speaker 2: that used to be safe and now she's horing it up.
Speaker 2: In their opinion, not my words. I think it's a difference.
Speaker 2: I think I don't think anyone thinks Cardi B is
Speaker 2: setting the women's movement back by talking about shit being
Speaker 2: stuck up in her ass or whatever. That song is up,
Speaker 2: it's stuck at whatever. If it's up, then it's up,
Speaker 2: then it's up, then it's stuck right, which she says
Speaker 2: is about poop whatever. My point is, nobody looks it's
Speaker 2: nothing sexual fund But anyway, nobody thinks Gaga set the
Speaker 2: woman's No one thought Madonna said the well, people thought
Speaker 2: Madonna's at the women's movement back. The point is that
Speaker 2: she doesn't represent women. She represents Sabrina Carpenter. That is right,
Speaker 2: That is correct. If you want to be a doctor
Speaker 2: or a lawyer, woman who wants to go to you know,
Speaker 2: Harvard or your medical degree or whatever. You want to
Speaker 2: be a politician, a world leader. This has nothing to
Speaker 2: do with you. It doesn't. If you think it sets
Speaker 2: the mentioned the little girls like, oh I'm gonna grow
Speaker 2: up and crawl on my hands and knees, then your
Speaker 2: parenting skills are poor. That is right, because because I
Speaker 2: don't think Sabrina Coppiner's parents taught her that. But that's
Speaker 2: how who she is. Kids are gonna grow up to
Speaker 2: be who they are. Yep, they are, and they're either
Speaker 2: gonna want to be Taylor Swift or Sabrina Carpenter or
Speaker 2: the next astronaut, not Katie Perry. But so I don't
Speaker 2: think I don't think it's a good career move on
Speaker 2: her part, but it fits the character.
Speaker 3: I think it's a great career move. I think it's awesome.
Speaker 3: I think it gets more people talking. I think it
Speaker 3: breaks the internet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it is the thing. Nobody buys albums and
Speaker 2: guess what, like the song the first single off that album,
Speaker 2: I'm Man Child, is already number one, number one her
Speaker 2: song because it's because it's because it's a good song.
Speaker 3: Well, it's her popular, it's her second number one single,
Speaker 3: all right, but album number.
Speaker 2: One because she's Sabrina Corpenter, not because she's on all fours.
Speaker 2: But really, album covers, think about it? Scary? When was
Speaker 2: the last time. Now, look, I'm a student, I'm a
Speaker 2: child of album covers. I used to love looking at
Speaker 2: album covers. Some of the look at the Stones covers,
Speaker 2: weren't they the zipper, the physical zipper on the cover,
Speaker 2: he unzip it the person. There was always sexual content
Speaker 2: on album covers. My point is, how often do you
Speaker 2: see an album cover now unless you're in Target looking
Speaker 2: at an album cover and Walmart is gonna put a
Speaker 2: black sticker over it, or you won't be able to
Speaker 2: see the album cover. Well, they'll put it in a
Speaker 2: bag because they're you know, they're more conservative, uh, you
Speaker 2: know in some of the parts of the country. But
Speaker 2: how often you see how you go on Spotify, you
Speaker 2: might see the album cover, you know, if you look
Speaker 2: bit I mean it's it's it's well, yeah, when you're
Speaker 2: in in the car where you're playing music, the album
Speaker 2: cover comes up as the vision if you have that,
Speaker 2: if you have that type of car, sure, I get it.
Speaker 2: But even though you're looking at a two by two
Speaker 2: album cover. My point is, I'm not offended by it,
Speaker 2: but I'm not the person. I'm not the I'm not
Speaker 2: the demographic that would have a problem with it.
Speaker 3: I just don't know why anyone has a problem with it,
Speaker 3: And and and I don't think people have a right
Speaker 3: to have a problem with it. This is poetic license
Speaker 3: or artistic express, artistic expression.
Speaker 2: You could you get to do what you want to
Speaker 2: do and paint your own palate. And that's how she wanted,
Speaker 2: you know. And by the way, it wasn't. She wasn't
Speaker 2: coerced or forced into that. She chose that. That's her.
Speaker 2: So everyone can go fuck off. That's it. Look you
Speaker 2: don't like it, don't look at it. Close your eyes.
Speaker 2: There are lots of women and men who might be
Speaker 2: submissive in the bedroom, in their sex lives and their
Speaker 2: relationships and then go out and lead a very powerful life. Yeah,
Speaker 2: how many? How many like you? Watch Succession? If remember
Speaker 2: the main ki nuts succession, billion Billionaire, Billions, Billions. The
Speaker 2: main character in Billions is this highly successful rich Wall
Speaker 2: Street guy. Does he get peede on to a he
Speaker 2: goes to a he goes to a mistress. Uh yeah,
Speaker 2: dominate trix, a dominate strix who walks on his back
Speaker 2: and treats him like shit because he spends his whole
Speaker 2: day in power and needs to be like knocked down
Speaker 2: a peg. The fact that she might be submissive to
Speaker 2: her man and and go on all four if that's
Speaker 2: their relationship in this album cover, that doesn't mean she's
Speaker 2: not a strong, powerful woman the rest of for life.
Speaker 2: So I think people make to them like, oh, that's
Speaker 2: setting women back. Listen, men can be on all fours.
Speaker 2: Women who gives a fuck? You know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to the next album. I'm looking forward.
Speaker 2: I just don't think it's gonna help her be Taylor
Speaker 2: Swift in your words, but it's gonna help her be
Speaker 2: the next Madonna, which is totally fine.
Speaker 3: All yeah, Well that next thing, you know, she'll be
Speaker 3: whipping out the cones and putting along her boobs. Remember
Speaker 3: when Mada Madonna did that.
Speaker 2: The cone bra That was not a very attractive look.
Speaker 2: I don't whatever it would be would be like coffee
Speaker 2: filters for Sabrina the Boys podcast, We will be right back.
Speaker 2: Is this the last break? Yeah? Man, it is. You
Speaker 2: can't keep caring. I'm surprised. So I'm only going to
Speaker 2: tell you about half of my lunch with my friend.
Speaker 2: So I mean to just tell you about the This
Speaker 2: is a slice conversation. This is a scary at age.
Speaker 2: Your opinion, Okay. So I make up to have lunch
Speaker 2: with my friend. We see each other like once a
Speaker 2: month maybe or so. When we go, we go to
Speaker 2: a casual dining place. You know, I've mentioned the places
Speaker 2: I go to. I don't go to expensive places. It's
Speaker 2: casual dining theme type place. So we go to the
Speaker 2: go to the location near his house, and I get
Speaker 2: before him because he's always a half hour late, always
Speaker 2: half hour late, which we'll talk about next episode. So
Speaker 2: I get, I go, I walk in and I'm not
Speaker 2: sure he's there because I texted him I would be
Speaker 2: eight minutes late. I was running a few minutes late.
Speaker 2: There was some traffic on getting there. So I walk in.
Speaker 2: I say, I'm looking for a friend of mine. He's
Speaker 2: about this tall and whatever, and I'm like, no, nobody
Speaker 2: about that description. I said, Well, I'm waiting for my friend.
Speaker 2: Can I get a booth? Yeah, no problem, a booth
Speaker 2: for the host? You want a boo booth. I want
Speaker 2: a booth with a thh I could be so the
Speaker 2: men so I said, there's just the two of us.
Speaker 2: Can we get a booth? So he grabs the menus
Speaker 2: and walks me over to a booth for four. Now,
Speaker 2: this particular restaurant puts out a plate with a napkin
Speaker 2: wrapped around the silverware on top of the plate at
Speaker 2: each of the four spots at the booth, and all
Speaker 2: the tables have a white plate and silverware wrapped in
Speaker 2: a napkin, a plate like a serving, a place setting
Speaker 2: on top of the napkin. You got the picture so far? Yes,
Speaker 2: so far? Yeah? Okay. So I sit down in the booth,
Speaker 2: which is against the wall, and I sit on the
Speaker 2: booth in the booth, on the outside seat with my
Speaker 2: right hand near the waiter. So the seat to my
Speaker 2: left is empty, okay, And the two seats across from
Speaker 2: you are empty, and the waiter is to my right.
Speaker 2: And the waiter says, this is the menu. I go, yep,
Speaker 2: no problem, I'm here all the time. And I put
Speaker 2: the menu to my left because there's a plate in
Speaker 2: front of me with a serving, So I just put
Speaker 2: the menu on the seat next to me okay, and
Speaker 2: he goes and this is the drink menu. Yep. I know,
Speaker 2: I'm here all the time and this is the specials
Speaker 2: but yep, no, I got it here all the time.
Speaker 2: And I take the three menus now and I put
Speaker 2: them on the seat next to me. Yep. He then
Speaker 2: hands me another set of menus, the three menus, and
Speaker 2: puts it on top of my play setting. So I'm like,
Speaker 2: that's awfully weird, because why do I need two play settings? Okay?
Speaker 2: So typically in a restaurant, when you sit down at
Speaker 2: a table and there's only two of you and there's
Speaker 2: four play settings, what is the waiter do or the host?
Speaker 2: They take the two away that you're not using. Yes,
Speaker 2: thank you. So I lift up my I lift up
Speaker 2: my menus serving in front. Yeah, and I assume he's
Speaker 2: going to take my play setting and the one across
Speaker 2: from me, leaving one next to me and one across
Speaker 2: from me. Yes, And I said, yeah, my friend will
Speaker 2: be in a little while. Great. He takes the two
Speaker 2: play settings on the other side of the table, and
Speaker 2: I now realize he gave me the second menu because
Speaker 2: he thinks I put the first menu to my left.
Speaker 2: He thinks my male friend that I described is gonna
Speaker 2: sit next to me.
Speaker 3: Even if it wasn't a male friend. When you're in
Speaker 3: a booth and your two people, you don't sit on
Speaker 3: the same side of the fucking booth.
Speaker 2: You absolutely the rules of the booth will dictate that
Speaker 2: you must have. You must be looking at each other
Speaker 2: and sitting across from each other. Now, if I had said, listen,
Speaker 2: my wife, my girlfriend will be here any minute, and
Speaker 2: I put the menu down next to me, you know
Speaker 2: he might be thinking, all he wants to sit next
Speaker 2: to his well even men. No, that defies the rules
Speaker 2: of the booth. Correct. Now, before you slices say, well,
Speaker 2: you put the menu there. No, No, I took the
Speaker 2: menu and I put it there like I was like,
Speaker 2: I don't need the menu, I'm here all the time,
Speaker 2: and I put it down. I didn't put it there
Speaker 2: because the person who's going to sit next to me.
Speaker 3: No, the default has got to be take away the
Speaker 3: two settings on one on either side of you and
Speaker 3: assume that the person coming, whether it be a male
Speaker 3: or female, whether it be your wife or your girlfriend,
Speaker 3: or your gumaud or the or you or your son
Speaker 3: or whoever, is going to sit across, because when you
Speaker 3: enter a booth, you already enter. You already enter a
Speaker 3: space that is designed for correct two people looking at
Speaker 3: each other on either side, you look ridiculous. If two
Speaker 3: people let's say it's a booth for six people, and
Speaker 3: would it be it would be awfully weird if three
Speaker 3: people all just came in and sat on the same side.
Speaker 2: With nobody on the other side. It doesn't make any sense,
Speaker 2: but hell does that. I have gone in my life
Speaker 2: to many restaurants with my wife, and you've gone with
Speaker 2: Robin many many Okay, And if I'm with my wife,
Speaker 2: I would love to sit next to her and cuddle
Speaker 2: and hold her hand at dinner and snuggle or whatever. Right,
Speaker 2: but I also want to talk to her and look
Speaker 2: her in the eye and have a conversation and not
Speaker 2: be like that we had couple staring at an empty booth.
Speaker 2: I have never sat next to my wife at a
Speaker 2: booth now where no one was on the other side. Now,
Speaker 2: I will say this. At a table, if it's a
Speaker 2: square table and your two people and you're a couple,
Speaker 2: we do do the right angle thing where it's like
Speaker 2: an l like I'll sit I'll sit in one spot
Speaker 2: and Robin will sit to my left or to my right,
Speaker 2: but not across.
Speaker 3: Because that's that's that's acceptable, that's acceptable. That's fine if
Speaker 3: you're at a square if you're at a square table,
Speaker 3: not a booth, and then your partner because it's weird sometimes.
Speaker 2: But if I'm with my boys, that's awkward. If I'm
Speaker 2: with you, Brody, and we answer a square table situation
Speaker 2: across across across, you cannot can I no, I don't
Speaker 2: want my knee, my knee bumping into your knee. But
Speaker 2: we would not want to be close like a like
Speaker 2: a right angle. That would be all that would be weird,
Speaker 2: right unless we're dating, correct? Yeah? Correct? Now? I I
Speaker 2: knew a couple ones that used to like to sit
Speaker 2: next to each other in a booth. They did, really,
Speaker 2: they like they like to be next to each other.
Speaker 2: But I thought that was weird. And I it was
Speaker 2: a long time ago, but I do know a couple
Speaker 2: that I don't know them anymore, but I knew a
Speaker 2: couple that would sit They were like, oh, yeah, we
Speaker 2: sit next to each other. I'm like, what the what slices?
Speaker 2: You don't do that right? You don't sit next to
Speaker 2: your partner and this guy like, wait, guys, hold on.
Speaker 2: Exception all the rules, here's this one. If you are
Speaker 2: at a table, right, a longer table, like a rectangular
Speaker 2: table or whatever, and it's the two of you and
Speaker 2: there's something to be seen in the distance, like a
Speaker 2: view of something, then are you're looking there's an attraction
Speaker 2: in the distance, Yes, that is a focal point. Then
Speaker 2: it is fine for the two of you to sit
Speaker 2: on the same side of the table. Yes, and not
Speaker 2: even ye. I'll tell you when that's when that's allowed.
Speaker 2: One when you're at medieval times watching people just look
Speaker 2: and you're all sitting in bleacher seats or at the
Speaker 2: movie theater, yes, that's too. Or if you're Jesus's last
Speaker 2: supper and everyone has to sit on the same side
Speaker 2: of the table because that's how you're drawn, that's how
Speaker 2: you're painted. Right, that's it. Jesus was the last person
Speaker 2: to sit on the same side of the booth with
Speaker 2: all those other people. I will say, though, in Europe,
Speaker 2: you go to any piazza, I don't understand Mike piazza,
Speaker 2: any piazza, not Mike. But if you go to any
Speaker 2: any of these town squares where there's like a center
Speaker 2: of whatever, and all these cafes and restaurants and people
Speaker 2: sitting outside eating, they absolutely sit on the same side
Speaker 2: of the tables, one another, facing out, facing the action. Like, hey,
Speaker 2: we're about to see a movie and there the movie
Speaker 2: is people walking through the piazza or the water in
Speaker 2: the middle. So people do sit on the same side.
Speaker 2: If you're in Italy and you have like a table
Speaker 2: facing the Trevy fountain or like a beautiful piazza, Like
Speaker 2: I said, there's an attraction, there's a point right, that's different.
Speaker 2: But if you're at a booth looking at the other
Speaker 2: side of the booth, no, no, it doesn't make sense. Yeah, no,
Speaker 2: good Sorry, Ay, slices got a lot of homework. Brodie,
Speaker 2: are you gonna Brodie, Let's let's do something awkward. Let's
Speaker 2: go out to dinner. Nonner. I'll tell you what. I'll
Speaker 2: give you your steak dinner if you agree to sit
Speaker 2: at a square table with me on a right angle,
Speaker 2: or even better, were still on the same side of
Speaker 2: a booth, not at a booth, not at a booth,
Speaker 2: at a table, but we're in the middle of everything. Okay,
Speaker 2: let me get this straight. You will buy me a
Speaker 2: steak dinner. If I sit right angle next to you
Speaker 2: in a steak dinner steakhouse. No, no, I want you
Speaker 2: to see on the same side as me. I'll have
Speaker 2: to get back here next to me. Yeah, I may
Speaker 2: be out the slices. I'm out. I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 2: I got that steakner. Is it old homestead? It would
Speaker 2: be so they have booths there. But you know what,
Speaker 2: that would be awkward if we sat on the same
Speaker 2: side of a you know what. I'm just thinking of
Speaker 2: the visual. But here's here's the thing scary. If we
Speaker 2: take pictures and then talk about it and post it,
Speaker 2: we can write it off on our taxes as a
Speaker 2: business expense. Oh. I kind of like where that's going.
Speaker 2: All right, steak dinner, same side of the table, So
Speaker 2: I may say yes, So listen. So we're going to
Speaker 2: deliver you guys another slice time on Monday. I'm even
Speaker 2: I'm on vacation for two and a half weeks, but
Speaker 2: I will be in town until at least Monday. I
Speaker 2: got my my nephew, Lucas, who's graduating, you know, because
Speaker 2: I'm the last I'm the switch. Well I'm getting he's
Speaker 2: getting the Nintendo switch.
Speaker 3: To But but yeah, you know, I'm his I'm his
Speaker 3: afterthought for the fourth ticket of the of the graduation.
Speaker 2: So we're doing that. And then I have a question
Speaker 2: for you. It's it's gonna be one hundred degrees and
Speaker 2: it's outdoors. Can I wear shorts and a T shirt
Speaker 2: or shorts and like a button down short sleep share
Speaker 2: because I'm debating in my head and a hundred people
Speaker 2: were to keep graduations one hundred. I wore shorts to
Speaker 2: my daughter's college graduation. Yes, so, but I try to
Speaker 2: be dressed up with two parents being suits and stuff
Speaker 2: with the parents of the kids. I mean, my sister's
Speaker 2: SNAr semi casual. I don't know, you're an uncle. The
Speaker 2: kid doesn't even want you there. He's not gonna carry
Speaker 2: watch there. But you know, to an extent, uncle scary.
