What a fun, fun weekend. 43 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 1: It was myself and Shane Douglas and the Sandman and 44 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: we did we did a virtual together that Friday, which 45 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: got a little out of hand. It was a little loud, 46 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: a little crazy, but that's what you should expect when 47 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 1: the three of us get together. We did an in 48 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: store Saturday afternoon. I met a lot of good people 49 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: from Twitter that came by to say hello, and then 50 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: we went to the Tracy Smothers show at nighttime. And 51 00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: so when we got to by the time we got 52 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: to the Tracy show, it was about four o'clock in 53 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: the afternoon and I sat to start signing, I started 54 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: getting this weird feeling in my neck out of nowhere. 55 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: It just boom, pulling, pulling, pulling, and the pain was 56 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: it starts at like my hairline and it goes down 57 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: into my shoulder. And I kept saying, I can't move 58 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: my neck. So Shane jumps up. It gives me this 59 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: little massage. Is that better or no? But thanks Hack. 60 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: Sandman kept saying, you need cold, you need cold, so 61 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: he it was so cute. He runs to the concession stands, 62 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: he buys me a Coca cola and puts it on 63 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: my neck. So I'm sitting there with a bottle on 64 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: my neck. But uh, I just I get this twinge, 65 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: this pain, and it's hard to it's hard to turn. 66 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: So the first couple of days I did cold and 67 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: now I'm doing heating pad like an old friggin lady. 68 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there with a heating pad on and I 69 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: don't know what happened. I don't know what it is, 70 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: but I did something to it. I tweaked it somehow. 71 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: Was it the plane? It was the plane uncomfortable? Well, 72 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: I don't know because I flew on that Friday and 73 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: I was fine until Saturday at around four when, like 74 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: I said, when I sat down to sign autographs. You know, 75 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: it was just it was one of those things, like 76 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: I know. Jerry called me this week, Jerry Lynn, and 77 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: I was telling him and he said, oh, he goes. 78 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: I pulled something trying on a pair of jeans, and 79 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: I said, yeah, I guess we're at that age where 80 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: any little movement we do we could boom, something could 81 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: pop or break or pull, you know. So it was 82 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: it's been a week for me telling me maybe the 83 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: finger pressure on the marker or the pen and then 84 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: no what it was. But I mean besides that, we 85 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: we we were saying, like to Shane and I were 86 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: texting this morning and he said, I have never laughed 87 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: so hard in my life. We were up until one 88 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: thirty in the morning, and instead of like the old 89 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: ECW you would see people like either do a drugugs 90 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: or drinking or banging rats or whatever they did. Next 91 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: time it was myself, Shane and Hack talking about our kids, 92 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: you know, our home life, our aches and pains, what 93 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: we do on our off time. It was like I said, 94 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: would you imagine like twenty years later, the three of 95 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: us would be sitting here discussing like adult things, Like 96 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: you know, nobody was drinking, nobody was doing drugs, nobody 97 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: was being obnoxious or it was very monotone because you know, 98 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: it was very late and we were just sitting there 99 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: and we were just discussing life and it was so fun. 100 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: It was so fun. That's awesome. Now you guys look 101 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: like you're having a ball. I checked in on the 102 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: virtual It was a lot of fun.

I don't get to see 105 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: these guys often enough, but when I do, I mean, 106 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: my bedtime's usually nine o'clock. But I you know, I 107 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: was up till one thirty two o'clock hanging out and 108 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: it was worth it because it was it was just 109 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: a lot of fun and I missed those guys, you know, 110 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: So it was it was a great weekend, and I 111 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: think Chad was happy.

It was a nice setup. 150 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, when I checked in, I said to the lady, go, 151 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: oh you guys just open.

And of course 156 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: I want a pot pie. Oh we don't do pot 157 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: pies anymore. Oh okay, can I get the fried pickles? Now? 158 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: We don't have any pickles? And I was like, really, 159 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: should I just go down the list and you just 160 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: tell me you don't have anything in stock? Because that's fine. 161 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: Fried pickles are a commodity these days, because I know 162 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: two places around here that have run out of them 163 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: over the last few months. Run out of pickles. I 164 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: don't know Charlie's, though, I was just like, you know, 165 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: what you're pissing me off is not the one with 166 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 1: the cake or something that you talk about the caramel pie, 167 00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 1: which I did not get because of my braces. Oh 168 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: that's that's so good. But I mean we we had 169 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: a nice little family sit down dinner and it was 170 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: it was just a great weekend. It's really fun. Did 171 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: you have somebody else order it so you can enjoy 172 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 1: it through them? So you could see there, no one 173 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: got deserved because honestly, there were four appetizers at the table, 174 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: so people were filling up on the I think it 175 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: was spinach and caso dip with the chips. There was 176 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: like four of them, and we were just talking and 177 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: as you're talking, you're eating. And then by the time 178 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: our entree came, it was just I was full. I 179 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: couldn't even finish what was on my plate. But it 180 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: was delicious. They do a good dude. I just really 181 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: liked the pot pie and they didn't have it, so 182 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: I was pissed off. How about the wild eyed Southern 183 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: boy Tracy Smothers memorial invitated, What was the deal with 184 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: that that I saw? No, Yeah, there were many people there. 185 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: I mean, we we had you know, we were there. 186 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 1: I think we were there for two hours. We had 187 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: little drips and drabs of people you know that came 188 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: over for for autographs, Like everybody that was there basically 189 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: came over. But there were not a lot of people 190 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: in attendance. So now people could have came right before 191 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: bell time in droves after you guys all the way, 192 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: but your tail tail lights were in the distance. Yeah, unfortunately, 193 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: from you know what I saw, Like even the DJ 194 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,719 Speaker 1: was like for the six people in the room, put 195 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: your hands over there, and I was just like, really, oh, 196 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: you can't say that. You can't you can't acknowledge the 197 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:45,359 Speaker 1: elephant in the room several times several times. Yeah, oh boy, 198 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: I mean there were more than six people there, but 199 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: it wasn't you know, thousands of people in attendance. So 200 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: the South is weird when it comes to the kind 201 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: of stuff you know, like people like some some people 202 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: were complaining on uh, if you had to pay ten 203 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: dollars for an autograph. They were complaining about ten dollars 204 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: And I know the cost of living is different in 205 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: the South and stuff, but come on a little bit. Yeah, 206 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: that's it's Chad and I have talked about that before. 207 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: He said the same thing, like the first he goes 208 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: I go here, I gotta charge there. I go here, 209 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: I gotta charge. Yeah, it's like a different level no 210 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: matter where you I said, God, come up north, I said, 211 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: you make a killing. You come up north where you 212 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: charge triple than what you would charge normally for double 213 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: the truth and people pay. It's it's just it's a 214 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: whole different world down there, and I like it, don't 215 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: get me wrong. And everybody was very, very sweet. But 216 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: when you complain and moan about ten dollars, it's just 217 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: time to just stay home. I don't agree. But a happy, 218 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: happy reunion when you got back, A nice family, welcome 219 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: my kids. Yeah, oh absolutely yeah.

He's I say it all 228 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: the time. He's like one of the best guys I've 229 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: ever worked for. So it's a good time. He's the man. 230 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: The other day he's a good dude, like him, really 231 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 1: is like him a lot good people. So there's a 232 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: couple of things we talk about today. Would you like 233 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: to hear my Ashley Furniture drama before we do that? Sure? 234 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: Did you see my tweet the other day? I did not, Okay. 235 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: I don't take to the social media waves to express 236 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 1: my frustration with stuff just because I don't like to bitch. 237 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: You know. I bitched to you, a bitch to people 238 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: I know, but not in public. Okay. Oh, Ashley Furniture 239 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: pushed me over the limit. They I can't even begin 240 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: to express to you how much I regretted having to 241 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: do it, because I really do like Ashley Furniture as 242 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: a furniture store. Do have you ever purchased from Ashley? 243 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: I know I've shopped there. I think there aren't they 244 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: more of the higher end furniture outlets if you were 245 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: to go back and forth between, Yeah, the higher it 246 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: would be on that higher tier. It's got a different style. Okay, Okay, 247 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: So I love it. I think their stuff is great. 248 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: We've gotten couches, we've gotten the Queen bed, We've got 249 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff from them. Well, I ordered a 250 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: twin bed for my oldest daughter, and, just like I 251 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: did any other products I've ever purchased from them, went 252 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: on a website. Did the thing, clicked the clicks? Did this? 253 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: Did that? Click the installation? Okay, which I do because 254 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: I'm not a furniture builder. I am just the Chad 255 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: st not a furniture builder. So I clicked the installation. 256 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: I noticed it was a little higher than normal. Okay, 257 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: it was about one hundred and ten dollars for installation. 258 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: I figured inflation, right, I figured it was week to 259 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 1: week my bed. I had gotten a queen bed seventy 260 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: nine dollars installation. This was one hundred and ten. But 261 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: I didn't really think much of it. Make the order, 262 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: don't really hear anything anticipated or arriving. I know things 263 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: are coming late, especially furniture. Out of the blue, I 264 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: start receiving packages to the house via FedEx, big packages, 265 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: big packages, one big one here, one big one there. 266 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: It turns out the bed was getting shipped to me 267 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: in pieces, in pieces, so I'm like, all right, that's weird. 268 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: I've never seen it like this from Ashley. It always 269 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: gets delivered on a truck. When the gentlemen come, they 270 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: put it together and give them a little tipski and 271 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: then they're on their way. But I had never heard 272 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: anything up getting these pieces, so I got Ashley on 273 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: the horn. Found out apparently they have a service they 274 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: employ for pieces that fall under a certain size. So 275 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: a twin bed fell into this category. Okay. The service 276 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: is called Handy. Have you heard of handy? Okay, Handy 277 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: is now like the top retailer installation. They do it 278 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: for everybody.

Okay, 317 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 1: So that obviously sent me off.

Well throughout this process, I get in touch 327 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: with an escalations lead, big name at Ashley, who takes 328 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: her three days to get a hold of somebody at Handy. Okay, 329 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: the refund never went through. They just yeah, I trust me, 330 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: I need a handy. By the time this is all over, 331 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: I'm very stressed.

So 333 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: she just hung up on me and canceled it because 334 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: she was mad. So they still charged you one hundred 335 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: and ten for the installation across the bed. And when 336 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: Ashley did there, we apologize for your inconvenience. We'll give 337 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: you something back. They gave me ten percent off my purchase. 338 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: It's twenty nine dollars. So what do you so? Who's 339 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: putting your bed together? So, because the Chads is persistent 340 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: with his bitching and complaining, there was a man here 341 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: at my house last night at six thirty pm installing 342 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,479 Speaker 1: this bed. Turns out he's a contractor. So Handy is 343 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: just a service that sits in a call center and 344 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: has a rolodex of handymen in your area that they 345 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,479 Speaker 1: call when they need you to do something. So they 346 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: called this nice guy that lived very close to me. 347 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: So did you pay for him to come? I mean 348 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: I was told so Handy eventually got in touch with me. 349 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: A rep from them said, they're giving me a physical 350 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,719 Speaker 1: check of the refund for the installation and it was 351 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: brought to me on their dime. Oh their guy. So 352 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 1: I did get it in the end, it just took 353 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: a long time. Monday Tuesday once it took four and 354 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: a half days to get this done. But still I 355 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: had the bed for eight nine days in boxes that 356 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: I said. Look, I go, I don't work for Ashley. 357 00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: I know your inner workings. I go. If I'm clicking 358 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: the installation box, I think it's coming the same way 359 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: every purchase has ever come from Ashley, just on the 360 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: truck and dropped off of my house and built. Not 361 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: it's coming in FedEx here. Ups, it's this, it's that. 362 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: So word to the wise, if you purchase from Ashley Furniture, 363 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: make sure you're getting something that ain't installed my handy, 364 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: because yeah, well, I mean the bright side is you 365 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: saved one hundred and ten dollars, you got free installation.

I just hate doing it. 391 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,679 Speaker 1: People wrestlers do it all the time. For on the airlines. 392 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: I notice with airlines they're always tweeting a Delta or 393 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 1: you know, Southwest or whatever the company is, like, you know, 394 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: I've been on the layover for five hours and now 395 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 1: I'm stuck for two days and you didn't give me 396 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: a hotel and blah blah blah, oh please DM US. Yeah. 397 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: I actually like I saw DDP do one of those 398 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. I Sean Waltman do one. He 399 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 1: literally was canceled as he sat there at the airport 400 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 1: and they told him, yeah, we won't have anything like 401 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 1: for you in two days or something. Oh shit, and 402 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 1: they didn't offer him a hotel. I'm pretty sure it 403 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: was him. Oh wow. I was like, and what are 404 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: you going to do to fix this? I was like, 405 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 1: Oh no, that's terrible. Oh my gosh, that's crazy. That 406 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: is crazy. One of the good things that happened this 407 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: week for US was we finally booked our Disney trip. 408 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we're all set for for next year, so 409 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: very very excited about that. Kids are excited and the 410 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: only thing left to do is book the food reservations 411 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: because you have to do that. Sixty days out. Lights 412 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: were booked, we got great, great airfare, hotel is booked. 413 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: I think the tickets might be purchased. I don't know 414 00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: did we purchase them. But everything's good, So a little 415 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 1: bit of joy in my heart from uh, that's Disney. 416 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: We did not get Genie Plus. They can just put 417 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: themselves on that one, not using that system. But it 418 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: did say that crowd capacity will be low when we 419 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: will be there, So I am hoping that that is 420 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: the case, and that everybody stays home, and that the 421 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 1: cheerleaders and the dance troops get the frig away from 422 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: me and no offense the foreigners. I don't think they 423 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: can come back now. No, they're allowed to entry back. 424 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 1: That's true too. But the dance and cheer competition is 425 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: what really gets under my skin because I told the 426 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: story about how they pushed my child. Yes, yes, you 427 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: did pushed her right back, did you, little bitch? And 428 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: I nudged her right back. They you know, they carry 429 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: their flag proudly from wherever. Uganda wherever the hell they're from. 430 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: I don't even know where they're from. Now they all 431 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: end up in Disney World the same time. There's thousands 432 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: of these obnoxious tweens running around clapping and singing their 433 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 1: songs in these languages I don't even know. Yeah, they 434 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: break out and dance in the middle. They stop in 435 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 1: the middle of the road and you can't get by 436 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: because there's so many of them, and it's like, really, bitch, 437 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: get out of my way, I gotta go. I have 438 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: you know when we use that fast passes, I got 439 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: a fast passed for this. I got a reservation. Right 440 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: when they get into standby line, there's a million of them. 441 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: You have to wait five hours for the ride. It's just, oh, 442 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: it's terrible. They break out the thriller dance and they're 443 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: doing Oh I can't, I can't with them. And if 444 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: you're listening in your kids one of those people, I'm sorry, 445 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: but it's the truth. And anybody who goes to Disney 446 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: that does not have a child involved in cheerleading or 447 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: dance that competes, they know what I'm talking about. The 448 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: conversations with complete strangers down there all take out our 449 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: frustrations together as a group, and we don't even know 450 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: who the hell we are. We don't know each other. 451 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: But it's annoying. Democrats, Republicans, Jewish together against the cheerleaders, 452 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: Muslim everybody comes together against the cheerleaders of Disney World. 453 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: It's an epidemic of epic proportion. We hate them. I'm sorry, 454 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I can't stand them. I wish to god 455 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: they would pick another week, but it just happens the fall, 456 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: the two weeks that were there, they're just and they're 457 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: outside the door when we're in our hotel at eleven thirty, 458 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: twelve o'clock, they come cheering through. They come cheering. It's midnight. 459 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: Get out of here. I want to sleep. I gotta 460 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 1: wake up early.

Yesterday, wwe released another forty two thousand people 525 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: from their roster, and you know people aren't just assuming 526 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: that the sale is going to happen because they keep 527 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: releasing and releasing and releasing. I'm not going to play 528 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: it here, but Drake Maverick, who was rockstar Spud, he 529 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: put out a brilliant video this week. I saw it. 530 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. The best line. Don't quote me on it 531 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: because I'm not going to say it one hundred percent accurately, 532 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: but he said something like, I didn't grow up wanting 533 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: to be a WWE superstar. I wanted to grow up 534 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: to be a professional wrestler. And that hit home because, 535 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of people think if you don't 536 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: get to ww you haven't made it in this business, 537 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: and that is so far from the truth. You know, 538 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: and getting there. I've said it a million times. Just 539 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: because you make it to WWE does not mean you're 540 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: going to be successful, rich, well known. I mean, they 541 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,959 Speaker 1: could just sweep you under the rug. There have been 542 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: people that work there that have never been on TV. 543 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: And we're getting paychecks to sit home yeh whole time, 544 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,239 Speaker 1: and it's an easy paycheck. But when you're in this 545 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: business and you love what you do and you love 546 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: to work and it's a passion, you want to get 547 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: out there and you want to show the world what 548 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: you can do. And a lot of these people are 549 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: so talented and never got the opportunity there that they 550 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: should have so big, big opportunities now for other organizations 551 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: to pick up these talents and to do right by them. 552 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: But an interesting tweet that I read was from how 553 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: do you pronounce her name? Is it? Taya Taya tya valkyrie? 554 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: Taya Taya yeah, Tya Valkyrie. Yeah, she's John Morrison's wife. 555 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: I've seen her wrestle before. She's really good and she 556 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: has a really good luck to her. She's been tweeting 557 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: she was let go first and then her husband was 558 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: lego yesterday. So she tweeted something. I'm trying to find 559 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: it on the timeline here, give me one second, because 560 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: people are, you know, in the up and arrow. Let 561 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 1: me see. She tweeted something like, why are you support 562 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: Why do you keep supporting a company that treats their 563 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: workers like shit? That was the gist of it. Now 564 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: I can't find it. I don't know. I got it, 565 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: I got it. I'm sorry. Stop supporting the company that 566 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: is zero respect for their talent. You love professional wrestling, 567 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: spend your money on the hundreds of other alternatives. This 568 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: is wrong ethically as employers. They don't care about us, 569 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: talent or fans. And I think she's got a point there, 570 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: She's on point. I honestly think she has a point. 571 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: And then she put up another tweet. She says her 572 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: husband removed it, but she wrote her my husband got fired. 573 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: This is why I'm saying this. I'm speaking my truth. 574 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 1: I'm sick and tired of people treating us like shit. 575 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: In two weeks we lost both our incomes before the holidays. 576 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: I'm all out to feel how I do. Yeah, people 577 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: forget that. Yeah, for people like giving her backlash on 578 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: tweeting her feelings, like, I don't get it. She is 579 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,239 Speaker 1: allie out to feel how she feels because this is 580 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: happening directly to her and her spouse. Yeah, so why 581 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: can't she mouth off? Did you see the number that 582 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: they've released no ninety talents this year? It was a 583 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: ninety okay, ninety talents. And then on top of that, 584 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: I think close to two hundred total office employees have 585 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: been let go in the last year. That's that's insane. 586 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: Something's happening. Thing is going down that needs to be 587 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: revealed very soon because what are they gonna do. Are 588 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: they going to use the same guys over and over 589 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: again and it's just rotate them. Yeah, they are to 590 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: have no one left. Yeah, I don't. I don't get it. 591 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: It's weird. They've like they they rated the indie scene 592 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: over a three four year period and they've essentially replenished 593 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 1: it as now, bringing them up as like fifteen times 594 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: the star they were when they were signed. It's very weird. 595 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: I feel like they signed certain people only to not 596 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: let other organizations grab them. Could be. Yeah, that's the 597 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: way I feel about it. And I feel like the 598 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: ninety day no complete is total bullshit. I just I 599 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: don't understand, like, uh, you know, if you in other words, 600 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: like if you don't want me, but another company does, 601 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: why do I have to wait ninety days? Yeah? Let 602 00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: me just go work. Yeah you know what I mean. 603 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: I just I understand they're paying you for that ninety 604 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: days to sit home. You know, it's an easy payday 605 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: or whatever. But man, each day that goes by is 606 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: a day that you might not get that offer again 607 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: in three months because somebody else might come along and 608 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 1: they will look at them before you, and it's it's 609 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: a cutthrow business as well. It's hard. I think there's 610 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 1: only been one person to challenge the ninety day and 611 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: just completely ignored, and it was Raven and I think 612 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: two thousand and four, two and three or two thousand 613 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: and four, whenever he was let go by WW went 614 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: to TNA. He just he was released on a Monday. 615 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: He was at TNA on Wednesday, and what happened were 616 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: there are no percussions nothing. So that's why a lot 617 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 1: of people say it's more of a fear that you 618 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: can't do anything for those ninety days when you read 619 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: the contract. But essentially they're not going to come after you. 620 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: Nobody challenges it, though, and they collect the money and 621 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: then they move on. But I wonder if if Scotty 622 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: was cut off from pay at that point, I sure 623 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: I might have that might have been the thing to take. 624 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: They would have paid him while he's on somebody. That's right, 625 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 1: that's correct. But he tested the I'm just gonna go 626 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: on and do my own thing. They okay, well we're 627 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: not paying you anymore. Well I got a job, so 628 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: for him, and that's and I don't know how many 629 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: times that comes up anymore, because contracts are what they are. 630 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: But now you see the NXT contracts are only thirty 631 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: days versus ninety and Scarlett Bordeaux got around that. So 632 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,720 Speaker 1: Scarlet Bordeaux is able to start taking bookings and moving 633 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: on because it's only been thirty days for her. Now 634 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: Killer Cross has to wait until February. Well, you can 635 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: take bookings, you just can't appear on somebody else's TV, correct, right, 636 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: But or you can't. I don't think you can wrestle 637 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: for those ninety days, right, I don't think as long 638 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: as it's not on TV. It's such a slippery slope 639 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: now though, because everybody's technically got some form of well yeah, 640 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 1: I mean I know when I was released, the first 641 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: thing that was said to me was you can't work 642 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: for TNA. That was the very first thing they said 643 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:06,240 Speaker 1: to me. And I went right the weekend. The weekend 644 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: after that I was released, I went and I started 645 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,760 Speaker 1: working again, and I was doing shows all over the place. 646 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: I just couldn't be on somebody's television. And also now 647 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: the name thing has been brought up, so now for 648 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: those ninety days, Killer Cross cannot sign an autograph carrying 649 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: Cross has to be Killer Cross. Really Okay, Well, that. See, 650 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: I never had to deal with that because my my 651 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: name was borrowed because it's my birth name, right, so 652 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: they couldn't. They had no control over that because I've 653 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 1: used that since they won, So I was good to go. 654 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,879 Speaker 1: But yeah, there's that gray area. They so your your 655 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: WWE name. You can sign it eventually, but not during 656 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 1: your ninety days. You cannot sign no technically, well no, 657 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: they had somebody at these signings sits do not do it? 658 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 1: Don't No, there's you know, how do you know, Joe? 659 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: You know, somebody could have called me he said, hey, 660 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: get to so and so's house now it wants to 661 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: I've and signing and then they go, hey, just do 662 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: me a favor. Just don't put those out for like 663 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 1: another month, Like yeah, sure, oh yeah, I got those 664 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 1: in September. What are you talking about? Uh huh? So 665 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: so selfish it really is, you know, you're dealing with 666 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: people's livelihood. This is this is how people make money. 667 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: This is their job. And it's right before the holidays, 668 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 1: like she said, look, Thanksgivings next week. I mean, come on. 669 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,240 Speaker 1: You know what's tough though, and this is an interesting 670 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: thing for somebody as yourself a veteran of the industry. 671 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 1: All these new talents now I have been released, right, 672 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: So now they're coming their way onto the convention scene, 673 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,320 Speaker 1: and the convention scene's gonna start getting a little cloudy 674 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 1: because there's a large group of people now that's getting included. 675 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 1: So now maybe a veteran might not get booked because 676 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,320 Speaker 1: a TV talent's available. They're essentially letting so many people 677 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: go once. It's like they're overbooking events on paper because 678 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: there's so many people out there now. Unless somebody just 679 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: decides I'm done, I'm not going to do anything. It 680 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 1: kind of hurts in the grand scheme of things, right, 681 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it depends. You know, a lot of these 682 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 1: guys are charging way too much, and a lot of 683 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: the promoters, you know, they either can't afford it or 684 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 1: they have to get two or three people to come 685 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:33,720 Speaker 1: in and help them bring one talent, you know, to 686 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 1: to an event. If you are someone like myself who 687 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: only works with certain people, because honestly, I get I 688 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 1: get a lot of different people approaching us saying, oh, 689 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: I want you for here, I want you for there, 690 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 1: But I don't know them from Adam, and I won't 691 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 1: I won't go. You know, I don't. I only take 692 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: bookings from people that I know, or if one of 693 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,919 Speaker 1: the other talents is one of the guys that I've 694 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: worked with, I won't go alone. I won't if I 695 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: don't know you, I'd work for you kind of deal. 696 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: So I'm blessed because I have that little group of 697 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: promoters that I work with that I know will use 698 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: me for certain shows. Talent always finds a way to 699 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: get in the door. You know, a lot of the 700 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 1: guys will adjust their pay, and that's another thing that 701 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: bothers me, Like if everybody would just stay steady with 702 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: what they want and stop dropping their fees. You know, 703 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: it's like these guys come in and they charge ten 704 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 1: thousand dollars, but you know someone I'm not going to 705 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: use myself, but just anybody. Oh, they now they have 706 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: to go. They were getting a thousand, let's say, and 707 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: then they dropped it to five because those so and 708 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 1: show's coming in. That's not fair. I don't think it's 709 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: fair at all. And if everybody would just put their 710 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: foot down. And I know a lot of people need 711 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: they have to work, and they work every weekend consistently. 712 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: But like me, I'm not going to stand for that. 713 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: So if you don't want to pay me what I want, 714 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to stay home. I have that luxury. A 715 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: lot of the guys don't. But I just don't find 716 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 1: it fair that so and so needs ten thousand dollars 717 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: and you can't bring another person in because you have 718 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: to give them all your money. Yeah, I've seen it 719 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: on the I'm stortying a out on the you know, 720 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: the private end. Anytime somebody's let go, I get a call, 721 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,319 Speaker 1: do you want so and so? Okay, how much are 722 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: they charging? They give you the number. It's like astronomical 723 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,959 Speaker 1: for a private signing. Yea, this is what they want. 724 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,800 Speaker 1: And there was one guy in particular that I literally 725 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: turned down like once a week that they keep on 726 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,800 Speaker 1: pitching to me, and I go, look, I'm not interested 727 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: because there's no chance to make money. Dave, he that's 728 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 1: what he feels he deserves. That's great, But I go, 729 00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 1: that is a lose lose for the businessman because you 730 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 1: can't sit on two hundred autographs for ten years. That 731 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: drops his value because then I can't sell. I'm like, hey, 732 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw them up for ten dollars each. On 733 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: Facebook and see if somebody wants one. It sucks. But 734 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: you're smart. Yeah you. I'd give you all the credit 735 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 1: in the world for how you run your business. You 736 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: do it very smart. I feel like, if you can 737 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,760 Speaker 1: get it, get it right, you know, like these guys 738 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: that are just coming off TV. If you can get it, 739 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: go ahead and do so. I'm not knocking talent. I 740 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 1: just don't like the fact that the promoters, you know, 741 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: people that have been consistent and good to work with, 742 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: and then they turn around, oh, well I can't give 743 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 1: you this, but I can't give you that, then I 744 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: don't come in sorry, you know. And a lot of 745 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: the guys will do it because they need the money, right, 746 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 1: this is the way they make their living. Bothers me. 747 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: We were talking about it this weekend. We were like, 748 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: if everybody would just stay consistent with their prices, then 749 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: nobody would be going in and they would have to 750 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: figure out a way to pay these workers what they're worth. Yeah, 751 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 1: you know. It just to me, it blows my mind 752 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: that some of these guys who have done so much 753 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 1: for the business get paid in peanuts. It's not fair. 754 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 1: It's not a fair business. I would just listen and 755 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 1: I'm not a prima donna. I'm not saying I'm worth millions, 756 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 1: but I do know what i'm worth, and if it's 757 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 1: not worth it for me, I will stay home with 758 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 1: my children and I will have a great weekend because absolutely, 759 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 1: that's that's it. At this point, I'm too old for 760 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 1: this bullshit. I'm tired, almost fifty and fabulous tour coming 761 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 1: for one, that's right, almost almost yeah, yeah, and like 762 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: next week is restle Kid.

Yeah, 784 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: So we we started toding the outside. We added a 785 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 1: new piece to our outdoor display hubs, but a tree, 786 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 1: one of those trees that are like all the lights. 787 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: It's like the big, huge triangle that has all the 788 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:22,720 Speaker 1: lights for outside. So we added that and we added 789 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: red and green. We have torch what are they called 790 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 1: torch lamps or torch lights going around the front of 791 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: our house. They're usually like an orange amber color, but 792 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:37,919 Speaker 1: he changed it to red and green, so now they're 793 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: all red and green, which is cute. And we also 794 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 1: have a projector in the window oh, okay, yes, and 795 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: it will project Christmas scenes like Santa, you know, putting 796 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: the presents under the tree, or reindeer flying or snowman. 797 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: It's very animated, very cute. We also have a manger 798 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,399 Speaker 1: because Jesus is the reason for the season, that's right, 799 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 1: and we have him up up front and center with 800 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:09,360 Speaker 1: a spotlight on and a little little wooden thing. That's cute. 801 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 1: It's real cute. So we started doing that because, honestly, 802 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: yesterday was gorgeous. The day before was gorgeous. The kids 803 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: and I were out and about doing walking and enjoying 804 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 1: the weather. And you know, today's forty friging eight years degrees. 805 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 1: It's freaking cold out. Yeah, the winter's here, even though 806 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 1: it's it's not here yet, but it's here. And but 807 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: at least it matches everybody's decorations like it finally, at 808 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 1: least it makes it worth it. I wanted to start 809 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 1: because I usually start Thanksgiving weekend and I'm not going 810 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: to be home, and then by the time I do 811 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 1: get home, I get him late Sunday evening. Monday, I 812 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 1: have a dentist appointment, so I wouldn't be able to 813 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 1: start until like Tuesday, and that's already like we're already 814 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: into like December almost, so I said, well, let me 815 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:58,720 Speaker 1: start this week that way we have time to enjoy 816 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,440 Speaker 1: completely agree. Yeah, we're putting up the tree tonight. Okay, 817 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: we have the decorations for the outside, we haven't put 818 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 1: them up yet. I'm not fully. The most I ever 819 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: did was a little on our townhouse, little string of 820 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: lights around the doorway. Well, now I got columns, I 821 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 1: got windows that have wreaths that are going on with 822 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 1: the lights. So yeah, it's a big So we're slowly 823 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 1: was surely gonna work on it this this weekend, but 824 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:27,359 Speaker 1: damn Thanksgivings next week. I know, actually it's Thursday as 825 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 1: you listen to this, right, yeah, it's it's it's creeping 826 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 1: up on us. So I asked the kids, like, what 827 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: do you want to eat? Because you know, I don't 828 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 1: do the turkey if it's just the five of us, 829 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 1: because none of us eat it. So I think what 830 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 1: we're gonna do is we're gonna look at the Wagman's 831 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 1: sol could the easiest thing in the world for everybody? Yes, 832 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: their pre made platters are out of this world. So we're, uh, 833 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,879 Speaker 1: we're each gonna pick what we want, and then we're 834 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 1: gonna have a nice uh nice together, and everybody gets 835 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 1: what they what they hoped and dreamed for. Have I 836 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: ever told you about the Betty Crocker sweet potatoes? You 837 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 1: might have last year? But I remember, all right, Well 838 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:15,440 Speaker 1: they're instant mashed potatoes, right, but they're sweet potato, right 839 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 1: Betty Crocker. Well they discontinued them. Oh no, but if 840 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:20,400 Speaker 1: you go on lie you type it in, you can 841 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 1: still find them. I don't know where the hell they 842 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,400 Speaker 1: come from, but I ordered them on Amazon right. God, 843 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:26,879 Speaker 1: they're from nineteen seventy four, so that's when it came. 844 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 1: I was like, you know, one I thought about it, 845 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: I got anything about the expiration date, I go, I 846 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: wonder if, and when it came I confirmed it. The 847 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 1: expiration date is twenty twenty two September, but I think 848 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:45,760 Speaker 1: the manufacturer date was twenty thirteen, so they're still technically good. 849 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 1: Well I had them the other night. They worn't go great, Okay, 850 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:53,399 Speaker 1: so I'm not dead. I actually feel great this week. 851 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 1: I've been very strict on the dieting. I've been working 852 00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 1: out this week very clear head first week in along time, 853 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:02,480 Speaker 1: so I think the sweet potatoes are just part of 854 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:07,839 Speaker 1: the process. Who knew that sweet potatoes could could turn 855 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: your whole life around? Who would have known it could 856 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: make me sweeter? That's true. You can't get much sweeter 857 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:18,799 Speaker 1: than that. But very good. Well, yeah, I just I 858 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 1: was really bummed for everybody who got, you know, fired 859 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:26,880 Speaker 1: this week and it's just shitty right before Thanksgiving. That stinks. 860 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 1: I mean that I was fired from a job right 861 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,120 Speaker 1: before Christmas a few years back. Yeah, few years like 862 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 1: twelve years ago, right, it feels well, it had long 863 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 1: lasting effects that I think we only really recovered from 864 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 1: a few years ago. Right while this was pregnant with 865 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 1: the first baby. It was like a gut punch. I 866 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,320 Speaker 1: got fired right before my wedding in two thousand and 867 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 1: nine from a job, and that was bad. This one 868 00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: felt worse just because of the timing right before the 869 00:48:55,200 --> 00:49:01,720 Speaker 1: holidays sucked? It does it? Does? I just? I don't again, 870 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: I I there's something's going on a sale. I'm thinking, 871 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: I thinking they're going to sell to who. I just 872 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 1: I don't want it to be Disney. I don't want 873 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 1: Disney to acquire them. Now there's a wonderful company that 874 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 1: owns a cable company, or that it's a cable company 875 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 1: that owns a broadcasting entity called NBC. If they are 876 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 1: acquired by anybody, I think it's going to be comcasts. Okay, 877 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 1: well I can deal with that. I just don't want to. 878 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to have to go to Disney Parks 879 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 1: and look at wrestling. I don't design be like if 880 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:42,839 Speaker 1: you smell what the rock is cooking restaurant that way, 881 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:47,400 Speaker 1: I don't want any of that stuff in my parks. 882 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:52,480 Speaker 1: Get out. The Ultimate Warrior Remembrance Pavilion is that way. 883 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 1: I don't want any of that bullshit in my parks. 884 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 1: The Hockey talk Man, yoursel of progress is that? No? 885 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,759 Speaker 1: But I you know, well, a Honckey talk Man and 886 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,760 Speaker 1: I had really deep and meaningful conversations at Rhode Island 887 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: Comic Con. I love the Hockey talk He was at 888 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 1: my table every day talking to him and JBL just 889 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,359 Speaker 1: talking to me every day. Honckey talk Man gets a 890 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 1: bad reputation based off of being a shrewd business guy 891 00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:24,319 Speaker 1: in the height of being the Hockey talk Man. When 892 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: you talk to him directly, he is a very smart guy. 893 00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:31,319 Speaker 1: He is He's just he's seen some shit, but He 894 00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: is a very good dude. I like the Hockey talk 895 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 1: Man a lot.
