They closed early 42 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: on Christmas Eves. So I got there. They said to 43 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 1: pick up the chicken fifteen, you know, fifteen minutes or 44 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: so before they closed. So I got there when I 45 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: was supposed to. They closed at three o'clock, so I 46 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: had to get there like two forty five.

Now. 96 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: My my sister in law and brother in law gave us, 97 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,119 Speaker 1: me and my wife what was described as a couple's gift, 98 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: a couple's gift, the gift we could both enjoy. They 99 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: gave you a massage. Not quite so they presented a 100 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: giant box. Now they explained prior to this that they 101 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: the gift they were giving, they were re gifting that 102 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: they they had gotten it that my brother in law 103 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 1: had got and he works in television, and it was 104 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: a gift that they gave the crew. And but they 105 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: thought it would be perfect for us as a couple's gifts. 106 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: So giant box and my wife opens it up and 107 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: I kind of opened it on. My wife really opened 108 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: and and it was a very nice gift that was 109 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: in the box. It was very watching the box. It 110 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: turns out it was it was a real gift, as 111 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: we said, but it, uh, it was very nice. I 112 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: gave a thank you. I said, this is a wonderful gift. 113 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: I appreciate that very much. Inside was an espresso maker. Okay, uh, 114 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: so it was very nice and and that was that, 115 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: and I said thank you, and I moved on. My wife. 116 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to say she was upset, but she 117 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: was mildly annoyed, Danny at She felt I should have 118 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: been more appreciative of the gift, that I was not, 119 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: that I did not show the proper amount of love 120 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,679 Speaker 1: for the gift. She was unhappy with my My joy 121 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: meter needed to be closer to at ten and I 122 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: was at like a four and she needed at a ten. 123 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: So let me make my case here and I will 124 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: present my case and then I will rest, and then 125 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: I will allow the judge and you, Danny, to determine, 126 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: and you the listener. If you want an email, me 127 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: and tell me what you think about this. So ay, 128 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: it was presented as a gift for both me and 129 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: the wife, a gift we would both enjoy. The problem is, 130 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: I don't drink coffee. This is a coffee maker. My 131 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: wife drinks coffee. I don't drink coffee, and I'm happy 132 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: for her that she has a coffee It's a very 133 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: nice machine. Is a several dar but I will have 134 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: zero use for this, right I be I. It's not 135 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: like I was a total douche. I was polite. I 136 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: said thank you, that's great. I just didn't bend over backwards. 137 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: And and so that was the second ware. And then 138 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: then the final thing parts sea this to me, and 139 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: it's pretty open. I've been very It's the one thing 140 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: I can talk about at parties is it's the real 141 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: odd thing about me is I don't drink coffee. And 142 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: I do an overnight radio show and I don't drink coffee, 143 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: and people are blown away by that. So it's a 144 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: great conversation starter. Everyone in the room knew about it, 145 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: that I don't drink coffee. It would be equivalent of 146 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: giving someone giving me a coffee maker would be akin 147 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: to giving someone in my family who's a vegan a 148 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: subscription to Omaha Steaks, Right, it would be the same. 149 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: They get the same use out of it. You know. 150 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: It's like or if I said, in one couple, you know, 151 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: a couple of one of them eats me, the other 152 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: one doesn't. I said, this is a great couple's gift. 153 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: You guys are gonna enjoy this so much. Here's a 154 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: subscription to stakes. Every month you'll get a different cind 155 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: of meat that will be delivered to your front door. 156 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: So that's my that's my argument, Danny G. How do 157 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: you see it? Let me ask a couple of questions. First, 158 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: all right, your wife e does she start her day 159 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: kind of grumpy before she gets her coffee? Well, she 160 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: claims that she's not a human being until she's had 161 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: a cup of cough. That's all right, because I've heard 162 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: that before too. Like you, there's plenty of women who 163 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: say that, like, oh my god, don't speak to me 164 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: until I've had my coffee. And it's a meme. It's 165 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: a joke, but women say it half jokingly because they 166 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: really mean it. In that case, it is kind of 167 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: a couple's gift because if your girl not your woman 168 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,599 Speaker 1: in particular, but just women in general. If it allows 169 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: us to not have to have a bitchy significant other, 170 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: then it kind of is a couple's gift. I mean, 171 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: I'm not liking what I'm hearing here, Danny, and I 172 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: gotta tell you I'm not. I don't. I don't think 173 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: you're a good judge. But you know, men are supposed 174 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: to stay together here, Danny, But no, here's my wife 175 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: has successfully been able to navigate the coffee this entire time. 176 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 1: She's found a way to get the coffee, and she's 177 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: lived fine, and she figures it out and and all that, 178 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: and so it's not like this is something where she 179 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: hasn't been able to get coffee. It's not like we're 180 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: in the Sahara desert water and we're getting water now. 181 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: It's not that. Okay, one last quick question. I know 182 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: a lot of guys listening to this right now have 183 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: gone through this same thing. If you were to look 184 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: at a bank statement for the month, are there a 185 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,599 Speaker 1: lot of coffee charges? Oh? God, yes, I think that 186 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: the reason Starbucks stock is as high as it is 187 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: is because of my wife. Absolutely, no question, no question 188 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: about women, especially when they go run errands and go shopping. 189 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: There's something about I gotta go through the Starbucks drive 190 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: through first, and then it's like they can't function and 191 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: run errands unless they have a big Starbucks in their hand. 192 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: This is correct. However, I will play devil's advocate. I 193 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: will point out that this will while it will limit 194 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: the Starbucks, it will not end the Starbucks. That still, 195 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: when out and about, when appropriate, there will be runs 196 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: to the Starbucks on the Starbucks app on her phone, 197 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: she will be ordering said Starbucks. So it's now now. 198 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 1: I would agree with you if this cut out all Starbucks, 199 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: that this is the this machine is like a gift 200 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: from the gods and no more Starbucks. But that's not 201 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: going to be the case. No. I feel like on 202 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: the thank you and appreciative Ben Mallory scale of one 203 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: to ten, you out of five or six would have 204 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: been fine. Your wife should have been the one out 205 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: an eight bending over backwards to thank them. You could 206 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: have been the robin to her batman for that gift. 207 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:10,079 Speaker 1: All right, Well, I stand by my position, and as 208 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: someone that is not part of the colt that drinks coffee, 209 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: I felt greatly. I don't say I was offended the gift. Shoot, 210 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: here's my position. The gift should have been presented as 211 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: a gift for her. Yeah. I would have been fine 212 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: with it. But when you told me you're giving me 213 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: a gift, I'm thinking, well, this is exciting, this is 214 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: something I can you know. And I open it up 215 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 1: and it's like a lump of coal for me. I'm like, 216 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: what the hell you know? Anyway, all right, I'm married. 217 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: My wife wants to dress up. She um moving on 218 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: from that.

So just for some background, 242 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: I haven't been careless with any of it, and I 243 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: feel like that's why I dodged it all these years. 244 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: So I'm thinking, Ben, that it was dirty Las Vegas. 245 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: I'm thinking for Southwest in particular, was the culprit Well, 246 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: you're fortunate that you you flew Southwest prior to the 247 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: last week. I caught one of the last Southwest flights 248 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: that actually flew well Southwest recover from this that I 249 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: don't know but you're you're gonna recover from COVID before 250 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: Southwest Airlines recovers from what the last last week has 251 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: been for that airline. Geez, Louise, for sure, I'm almost better. 252 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: You're you're you're almost over it though, right If you 253 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: sound pretty good, you sound good. The reason I took 254 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: one of the tests that you and I got at 255 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl in l A. They were giving away 256 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: free COVID tests and at the time, places were trying 257 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: to scalp these tests for what hundred bucks? Oh yeah, 258 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: they were there. You couldn't find them for a while. 259 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: They were all the stores were sold out. Yeah, lines 260 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: of people waiting to buy these stupid COVID tests back 261 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: in the day. And these little companies, especially some of 262 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: the little urgent cares, were totally taking advantage of everybody. 263 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: Um well, you and I we went to Radio Row 264 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: in l A. And they were giving away these free 265 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: COVID tests. So we kept getting back in line, and 266 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: our joke was we were going to sell them on 267 00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: the on the black market. Um, so I took. The 268 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: reason I took the test on Christmas morning was because 269 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: my girl I just thought I had a bad head cold, 270 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: but my girl made scrambled eggs and bacon, and I'm hyped. 271 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, we only get bacon a few 272 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: times a year. It's a treat. I take a bite 273 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: of the bacon. I can't taste it. I couldn't taste 274 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: the syrup. I couldn't taste the waffle. I couldn't taste 275 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: the eggs. I literally got scared ben because it felt 276 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: like somebody had scraped the taste buds off of my tongue. 277 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: Bake taste like now. I also thought, damn, this actually 278 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: could be a good diet. If this goes on for 279 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: a while, I'm not gonna eat anymore, because what fun 280 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: is it if you can't taste anything? Well, you could 281 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: do that, or you could go the other direction, said, 282 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: just give me some vegetables. I can't taste those, like 283 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: the food you don't like that are good for you. 284 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: You could go the other direction and be like, I'll 285 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: just eat nothing but broccoli and cauliflower. It'd be great. 286 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: Who cares? Yeah, that's actually a good point. You could 287 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: turn your health around.

Yeah, but isn't that gonna 464 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: come flying off if he's driving and hit a car 465 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: behind him? Though?

A lion or an alligator, that 488 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: would be kind of cool. You know, maybe a rhino 489 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: are similar. I was allowed to have whatever I wanted. 490 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: It wouldn't hurt me. In a perfect world, and I 491 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: could have that.

Man racing kanes, Yeah, 514 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: raising Kanes. All right on, pop goes the culture. We 515 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: got a little more time. I think we'll do one 516 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: more here. We'll see if we have time. But how 517 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: about how about this one from the the wacky world 518 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: of a real estate. So this group of friends in Pennsylvania, 519 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: they bought this abandoned high school. They spent a hundred 520 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: thousand dollars on this abandoned high school. This old school 521 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: like relic from back in the day, like the nineteen forties, 522 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: nineteen fifties, and I've been used in years. And they 523 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: renovated it and they turned into this awesome looking thirty 524 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: one unit apartment building. It's got a gym, shared living space. 525 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: It's awesome. And these guys in their thirties they got 526 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: together and they said, this is great real estate. This 527 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: is a gold mine. We gotta we gotta figure out 528 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: how to do it Homestead, Pennsylvania. And it's it's really neat. 529 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: It's like this really sweet looking old building that was 530 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: this this high school. It's four stories tall. And they 531 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: got together with a developer and they turned it into 532 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: twenty nine one bedroom units. They're charging four a month, 533 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: and they've got some two bedroom units as well. That 534 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: are mixed in there. But that's a great idea. I'd 535 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: love to do something like that. I think that's a 536 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: wonderful Is there also a built in brothel. I don't. 537 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't see the brother, but they made it very 538 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: it's very grand. It's very grand like it. It's an 539 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 1: old building and they refurbished it. They did this in 540 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: like six months and it's it's pretty cool. And they 541 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 1: just bought another school. I guess this is a new thing. 542 00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: They just bought another school, an elementary school which is 543 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: no longer in elementary school, and they're gonna turn that 544 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: into some some studio apartments also, So that's kind of neat, 545 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: some ingenuity.
