Speaker 1: middle of the afternoon, and it's not seven o'clock at
Speaker 1: night when I'm falling asleep. Okay. One of the main
Speaker 1: reasons we're doing this podcast on a Friday afternoon is
Speaker 1: that you realized it was gonna rain, and it wouldn't
Speaker 1: You wouldn't have any plans, so you're like, oh, let's
Speaker 1: do it friday afternoon. Yeah, I don't have anything to do.
Speaker 1: It's raining, it doesn't interfere with anything. But I got
Speaker 1: a noose for you, dude. There's a blue sky that's
Speaker 1: coming from the northwest right now. What didn't you say
Speaker 1: this morning on the new you did the weather report

Speaker 1: g um. She'd be a gusty shower tomorrow. Oh, gusty shower.
Speaker 1: That's it. I thought that sounded like a stripper. Gusty
Speaker 1: showers today. Now entering the room, gusty showers, give it
Speaker 1: up stage, the latest gentleman, now approaching the pole, speaking
Speaker 1: of strippers. Had an awkward moment last night with my
Speaker 1: youngest daughter. So please tell the story quickly. I don't
Speaker 1: want to because I'm already draining my own conclusions. No no,
Speaker 1: no, no no, no no no. So she and her friends
Speaker 1: went to to the Islanders Devil's hockey game last night.
Speaker 1: My daughter is uh was raised to be an Islanders fan,
Speaker 1: even though we live in New Jersey, and all her
Speaker 1: friends are Devil's fans, so she went an island of gear.
Speaker 1: And of course, how did that happen? My wife is
Speaker 1: from Long Island, where the Islanders are from, and my
Speaker 1: wife up a big hockey fan. They had season tickets,
Speaker 1: so she's the Islanders fan, and they're all her friends
Speaker 1: and Devil's fans because they live in New Jersey. So
Speaker 1: she went to the game. I said, I said, listen,
Speaker 1: you know that you gotta get booed right people. I said, no,
Speaker 1: one's gonna hit you because you're little, but you're gonna
Speaker 1: get booed. It's like, I'll be fine. No one's gonna
Speaker 1: bother me. I'm a little I'm a young girl. I'm
Speaker 1: like okay. So after I picked her up and she's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I got yelled at and booed. Did the Islanders win? No?
Speaker 1: They lost for nothing? Oh that makes it worse. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's at the point of my story, and it's
Speaker 1: never a point to my story. But they I got
Speaker 1: her some our friend I don't want to give his
Speaker 1: name out. I don't get in trouble, but we had
Speaker 1: a friend who worked for the Mets and now he
Speaker 1: works for the Devil. So he hooked me up for
Speaker 1: them to get them into the lounge areas. There's two
Speaker 1: lounge areas that are there behind the seats on two levels.
Speaker 1: You can watch the game, but there's they have a
Speaker 1: bar and they have a buffet, and it's really nice
Speaker 1: areas and it's part of a club package. If you
Speaker 1: buy certain tickets to those sections that have the club
Speaker 1: behind them, you can go up the stairs and behind
Speaker 1: your seats is this lounge area. And so I said, listen. Uh,
Speaker 1: she says, well, kind of get Shirley Temple's, you know,
Speaker 1: which is basically sprite or seven up with the grenadine.
Speaker 1: Grenadine being the the juice that the Maraschino cherries are in.
Speaker 1: I don't know that to be a fact. I think
Speaker 1: Marichino cherries are in sugar water. But it's the same
Speaker 1: kind of sweet, pinkish uh stuff that anyway, So I said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure you can, but listen, take some singles with
Speaker 1: you now, uh. And I said, well, I go, so
Speaker 1: you have to tip the you have to tip the bartender.
Speaker 1: So she didn't say anything. So I'm driving her and
Speaker 1: and her friends in into the game, a couple of
Speaker 1: their friends, and I said, did you bring singles? And
Speaker 1: she didn't. I said what she was why? I because
Speaker 1: if the bar, even if it's free, if the bar
Speaker 1: tender makes you drinks, you should give him like a
Speaker 1: dollar for every two, you know, a couple of dollars.
Speaker 1: If you make seven for a Surly Temple, it's it's
Speaker 1: sprighting and some grenadine. And she's a kid, so missed
Speaker 1: apple tini. Relax. So I'm getting free drinks at the bar.
Speaker 1: I'm tipping five dollars on every drink because he's still
Speaker 1: like Shirley Temple, My, why would my kids pay five
Speaker 1: dollars for soda from the whole point of getting in
Speaker 1: the lounge to can drink soda for free? I understand,
Speaker 1: I understand a dollar for your kid. I'm trying to
Speaker 1: teach her to do the right thing, right. So I said,
Speaker 1: you gotta give him a couple of bucks if you
Speaker 1: get like five drinks to give him to three dollars,
Speaker 1: you give him something or horror, you know, He goes,
Speaker 1: why is the you're treating the bartender like a stripper?
Speaker 1: So I said, I'm not telling you to put the
Speaker 1: dollar bills in his pants. And she says, how do
Speaker 1: you know that? How do you know it's what you
Speaker 1: do with strippers? She threw it right back at you.
Speaker 1: So I said, I read it in a book once. Well,
Speaker 1: I gotta be gotta be careful with because now especially
Speaker 1: they're getting the sharpest attacked. They're getting older and wiser,
Speaker 1: They're gonna start asking more questions. Yeah, well, yeah, the
Speaker 1: question is they don't want dad to know stuff, just
Speaker 1: like they know a mom to know stuff. I get it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like I've got to put a close pin
Speaker 1: on my nose right now, because there is something fucking
Speaker 1: foul coming through the vents from This is the drawback
Speaker 1: of living in an apartment building. All the vents are connected,
Speaker 1: so my kitchen vent and my bathroom vent have various
Speaker 1: smells coming through them from other apartments cooking. Someone is
Speaker 1: stewing cabbage. It smells like a giant fart in my bed,
Speaker 1: in my bathroom, which is appropriate, but the accept it's
Speaker 1: it's clean and I haven't been in there. Cabbage is
Speaker 1: just terrible. Cabbage is awful. It gives off the most
Speaker 1: disgusting But who's cooking what? And do I get to
Speaker 1: complain about it? I guess I can. No, I don't
Speaker 1: think it complain about cabbage or any kind of smell.
Speaker 1: But you eat call Slaw, right, which is real cabbage? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that doesn't have that There's not a sent to it. This.
Speaker 1: Somebody is cooking. Someone's boiling cabbage on a human. It's
Speaker 1: like farts. It's just awful. I was Did I tell
Speaker 1: you the story about col Slaw? I tell you the
Speaker 1: cabbage con Sla story. No, so do you remember? I
Speaker 1: don't mind outing them because that's just the way it was.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they still do it. But I
Speaker 1: used to be a manager, assistant manager for a huge,
Speaker 1: one location, upscale fast food place called Roll n Roaster,
Speaker 1: a huge, hugely successful place and they it's fast food,
Speaker 1: but they make everything fresh they make. We made, we
Speaker 1: made our own soup, our own sauce. Known for their
Speaker 1: roast beef yeah. Yeah, and putting cheese was on everything.
Speaker 1: Fries with cheese, roast beef with cheese, please, that's correct,
Speaker 1: that's the slogan. So as an assistant manager, one of
Speaker 1: the things you did was you were in the back
Speaker 1: and you were preparing the food. So I had to,
Speaker 1: you know, make the pecampie mix and slice the roast
Speaker 1: beef and do all the stuff to get the fresh
Speaker 1: food out. You know, we had frozen mozarella sticks and
Speaker 1: frozen french Yeah yeah, right. So the cole slaw. Now
Speaker 1: I don't like cole slaw, would never eat call slaw,
Speaker 1: but we had to make cole slaw. Wow, you didn't
Speaker 1: get it from a package. I feel like that's one
Speaker 1: of those shortcut foods. No, I told you this place makes.
Speaker 1: We had to make our own clam chowder because they
Speaker 1: would be right there with the frozen mozzarella sticks, because
Speaker 1: the volume of mozarella sticks is outrageous. We wouldn't be
Speaker 1: able to bread all the mozarella sticks for the thousand
Speaker 1: orders a day that we did. But the cole slaw
Speaker 1: wasn't a huge item. It was you know, maybe we
Speaker 1: sold fifty a day, forty little cups of coles. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: here we go. So you had these giant plastic bins, right,
Speaker 1: and you would use the slicer and cut up the cabbage.
Speaker 1: You'd slice and shred the cabbage in the slicer. Some
Speaker 1: places have a machine, like a Hobart machine. Hobarts the company.
Speaker 1: You'd put it in it with like I think maybe
Speaker 1: we did. Maybe we use the attachment. We may have
Speaker 1: had an attachment that shredded it. I don't remember. Anyway,
Speaker 1: you shredded or sliced the cabbage and then you poured
Speaker 1: in the I think it's mustard seed, some kind of
Speaker 1: caraway seeds, some kind of seed goes in the in there.
Speaker 1: Not that kind of seed. No, nope, nope, nope, nope,
Speaker 1: not even for the angry customers, No, not even for
Speaker 1: the rude Karen's. No. No, it wasn't load slaw. It
Speaker 1: was Coleslaw. So and then we had like we had
Speaker 1: Hellman's cole Slaw mix in giant one gallon jugs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's well, it's the it's the liquid that's in the
Speaker 1: cole slaw. It's pre made with all the seasonings that
Speaker 1: you'd have in there. Okay, well there's no easy way
Speaker 1: to mix this giant bucket. Okay, you gotta stop right there.
Speaker 1: So I've eaten loads of this slaw over my lifetime,
Speaker 1: right well, uh well no, again, this is before before
Speaker 1: maybe people were as glove crazy as they are like
Speaker 1: in restaurants. Come on, so we would you just put
Speaker 1: your arms, your bare arms and hands into the giant
Speaker 1: bucket and and slop it around and you'd squeeze it
Speaker 1: to get like all the draw in the bottom and
Speaker 1: make sure all the coast because the giants spooned that.
Speaker 1: We didn't have like a we didn't have a massive
Speaker 1: thing that so we just did it with our hands.
Speaker 1: I was like, you're serious. So I thought it was
Speaker 1: a prank when I did it the first time. I'm like,
Speaker 1: come on, you guys are pranking makes on the new guys. So,
Speaker 1: oh my god. This is a long time ago around
Speaker 1: the same time you were doing that, you were across
Speaker 1: the street. I was across the street at the Palm
Speaker 1: Short Club and I had I had to make the
Speaker 1: tuna fish. Now what how do you think you made
Speaker 1: tuna ficient bulk, Brodie? But your feet, Brodie. We used
Speaker 1: to take a giant bus box, a bus boxes, the
Speaker 1: giant oh, the gray one, the gray boxes that you
Speaker 1: usually put all the plates in and silver. Oh no,
Speaker 1: the bins for the coal slow were bigger plastic than that.
Speaker 1: But these are big giant bus box which which is
Speaker 1: sometimes it's used for dirty dishes made you see in
Speaker 1: every restaurant. Yeah, well it's been sanitized, and then they
Speaker 1: take We used to take these oversized cans of chunk
Speaker 1: Light tuna in oil. And now chunk Light is the
Speaker 1: cheap tuna. And the can of the tuna was huge.
Speaker 1: It was like one of those It was one of
Speaker 1: those Costco jet trow restaurant size, which is the size
Speaker 1: of maybe like a fucking half gallon of tuna, and
Speaker 1: each can shore and then we used to open it
Speaker 1: up and we just go throw it into the fucking
Speaker 1: bus bin, throwing them in, throwing them in, and then
Speaker 1: we used to take the oversized gallons of Helman's mayonnaise,
Speaker 1: of course, and literally take the whole gallon and throw
Speaker 1: it in the bus box sound with the tuna on
Speaker 1: a giant grand scale. Then roll up your sleeves, wash
Speaker 1: your hands really well, scrub them really well, of course,
Speaker 1: and then because everyone did that, and then you take
Speaker 1: both your hands and you literally used to massage it
Speaker 1: like you're massaging someone backing like the call slaw, like
Speaker 1: mixing the two. And they made that sound that it
Speaker 1: was disgusting. Dude, like mayonnaise and tuna. I don't like
Speaker 1: cole slaw, so me, it was worse. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: you just brought back some bad memories. So for that reason,
Speaker 1: I never I never eat storeboard the store made tuna,
Speaker 1: because all you do is I see it in the delicates,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I know how that was made. And
Speaker 1: by the way, the egg salad and a chicken salad too,
Speaker 1: So I just ruined everyone's mealcast and rody. So you
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier that you had a smell in your apartment, Well,
Speaker 1: I have a good news bad news story that I'd
Speaker 1: like to share with you. One is me getting over
Speaker 1: on the system, and one is the system getting over
Speaker 1: on me. So I thought the law on the law one,
Speaker 1: the law one. So you know, I do the morning
Speaker 1: show every day from home when I don't come Well, okay,
Speaker 1: it's actually a cushion gig It's a couch cushion giga.
Speaker 1: And so I'm in my den, which is about six
Speaker 1: steps off the kitchen, and um, you know, it's got
Speaker 1: a nice TV on the wall, and I have a
Speaker 1: nice couch and coffee table. I have a set up
Speaker 1: in there to make you know too, so I can
Speaker 1: get you know, I have everything I need to to work. Anyway,
Speaker 1: over the past year and a half, the carpet has
Speaker 1: just gotten black and and so the this this besides
Speaker 1: the staircase, there's three doors in my den, one down
Speaker 1: to the basement, one to the garage, and one to
Speaker 1: the backyard. So when you come in from the garage,
Speaker 1: you're coming into the carpeting in the den. When you
Speaker 1: come in from the backyard, you're coming into the carpeting
Speaker 1: in the den. And if you take a bag of
Speaker 1: garbage from the backyard to the garage, you shoot sometimes
Speaker 1: drag it through the den. So I had just drag
Speaker 1: stains and footmarks and just awful dirt in the pathway
Speaker 1: from the back door to the garage door, because no
Speaker 1: matter what, garbage is being dragged through right otherwise you
Speaker 1: gonna walk around the whole house. So sometimes they just
Speaker 1: bring it through and I hope for the best, but
Speaker 1: it's a lot of walking in from the garage. It's raining.
Speaker 1: If he get there's no great system, don't tweet me
Speaker 1: with suggestions. We've tried everything, so I'm gonna put tile
Speaker 1: in my den. So I decided last Saturday would be
Speaker 1: the perfect day to rent from home depot the carpet
Speaker 1: shampooing machine and you buy a jug of the soap
Speaker 1: and you bring it home. You get if it's twenty
Speaker 1: four hours, Well, what's special about Saturday into Sunday last week?
Speaker 1: M hmm, Saturday. I rented the machine at three o'clock
Speaker 1: and the girl says to me, you have to bring
Speaker 1: it back by three o'clock tomorrow. Okay, I said, that's fantastic, scary.
Speaker 1: I got it for twenty five hours because of daylight
Speaker 1: saving booom boom day. The best day to rent something
Speaker 1: for twenty four hours is on that day because you
Speaker 1: get the extra hour. Xtra you want to rent the
Speaker 1: truck a car. That's the day to do it, Daylight
Speaker 1: Savings day, the day before anybody would save. You want
Speaker 1: to work, you want to work a shift at a bar,
Speaker 1: not the day to do it, because you get ripped off,
Speaker 1: ripped off by an hour. Well, when I used to
Speaker 1: work at Rolling Roaster, we used to we used to
Speaker 1: work until two in the morning, and so sometimes they
Speaker 1: make us work till three and then back the clock
Speaker 1: up terrible to keep us open later because they wanted
Speaker 1: the extra hour, like oh it's two o'clock. No, it's
Speaker 1: only one o'clock, and which stay open. But then they
Speaker 1: stopped doing X. People go like, that's ridiculous, but but
Speaker 1: but that that is the ultimate day of the year.
Speaker 1: Mind blowing everybody to rent something for twenty four hours
Speaker 1: because you get it right. So okay, but so here,
Speaker 1: So I come home, I bring machine on my mixed
Speaker 1: the solution into the bucket and I had to had
Speaker 1: to mix it into the bucket like I don't know
Speaker 1: eight or nine times, because I did that copet. I
Speaker 1: did the competing upstairs, I did the rug in the
Speaker 1: dining room. I went crazy with ifs right, went Ham,
Speaker 1: I went ham like all over the place and when
Speaker 1: I did the den, because it was so heavily soiled,
Speaker 1: I kept going over the same spots a couple of times,
Speaker 1: rather than like, did you get all the stains out?
Speaker 1: I got all the stains out. You may, so I
Speaker 1: bring the machine home on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. I'm
Speaker 1: loving life, my copet. I'm so proud of myself. Wednesday night,
Speaker 1: I start smelling something. Apparently I let the carpet not
Speaker 1: dry fully. I didn't suck all the water out, I
Speaker 1: didn't put fans on it. And now I've got a
Speaker 1: mildew smell in my den. So I got to home
Speaker 1: depot and I buy arm and hammer powder to remove
Speaker 1: the mold and mildew smell from your carpet, and I
Speaker 1: sprinkle it all over. I let it sit for half hour.
Speaker 1: And you know, I put fans on from Wednesday night
Speaker 1: to Thursday. I had two small circulating fans retriculating but yeah, right,
Speaker 1: oscillating oscillating fans. Yeah, oscillating fans to dry the carpeting.
Speaker 1: And then I put the powder down in the den
Speaker 1: and in the rug in the living room, in the
Speaker 1: dining room rather and I waited a half hour and
Speaker 1: I did the rug in the dining room, no problem.
Speaker 1: Smells better, I wouldn't say perfectly, but better. And I
Speaker 1: powdered the hell out of the den carpeting, let us
Speaker 1: sit for forty minutes just in case, and I vacuumed
Speaker 1: it up well. Apparently in one area the carpet wasn't
Speaker 1: completely dry, even though at the top felt like it
Speaker 1: to dry, it was not, so I vacuumed it. Now
Speaker 1: it smells like mildew for breeze. Breathe, happy foot, breeze,
Speaker 1: La la, la, la la. It smells like arm and
Speaker 1: hammer powder for breeze and mold. But he is where
Speaker 1: it gets worse. In the spot right next to the
Speaker 1: the coffee table where I broadcast every day, it was
Speaker 1: a little moist, and so I've created a paste like
Speaker 1: substance in the competing so when you walk on it,
Speaker 1: your sneakers get sticky. When I go up to the
Speaker 1: kitchen and it goes that's disgusting. So I got my
Speaker 1: free hour, and guess what I'm doing Saturday again, And
Speaker 1: this time you only get it for twenty four hours.
Speaker 1: Twenty four hours. I'm getting ripped off. But now you
Speaker 1: gotta read it again, though, it sounds to me like
Speaker 1: you better Regina, Regina Steamer that bitch, Yes, I got.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to Stanley Steamer. I'm gonna have to
Speaker 1: do something. They have. They have that jingle Stanley Steamer
Speaker 1: gets carpets clearly what you call them. I'm not paying
Speaker 1: a company to come here, and I'll do it my
Speaker 1: because it takes a half hour. I'll do it myself.
Speaker 1: I'll just make sure I get all the water out
Speaker 1: this time. Famous last words favorite Bernie is going to
Speaker 1: do it himself. Well, okay, how did it turn out
Speaker 1: for you when you install old You're hot tub? I
Speaker 1: didn't stall my hot tub myself, or even when I
Speaker 1: tried to fix one. We tried to fix one little thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I may have disconnected a wire a tube and and
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I gotta fix But doesn't bode well, Brodie.
Speaker 1: I fixed some things. I fixed you you've you've heard
Speaker 1: me on this podcast. I fixed it. I know you're
Speaker 1: missed to fix it, but something Remember there's there is
Speaker 1: a margin of error. There is that chance that you're
Speaker 1: gonna fox something up. All right, Well, speaking of doing
Speaker 1: things myself, I'm not going to tell you here now
Speaker 1: because I know you have something that you want to
Speaker 1: talk about, but I do want to tell you about
Speaker 1: my experience at the dry cleaners, about you know, the
Speaker 1: same ones I told you that I tried to charge
Speaker 1: me too much for this. I had the dry cleaner
Speaker 1: problem too. I mentioned it on the air, and I
Speaker 1: was wondering what was well. I guess we'll talk about
Speaker 1: it when we talk about dry cleaning, I guess. But
Speaker 1: but I wanted to bring everybody up to speed about

Speaker 1: flip it and reverse it in order to work it right.
Speaker 1: And then it's just a jump to the left. I
Speaker 1: was doing, miss Elliott, I know, and I'm adding on
Speaker 1: by doing the rocky pictures. Yes, why can't you gotta
Speaker 1: put that thing down? It's you know, like when you

Speaker 1: are the way somebody texted in when you told the story.
Speaker 1: Got you tell the story. Remind me to tell you
Speaker 1: about the text message we got because I don't think
Speaker 1: he saw it. Go ahead, tell the story about you jeans.
Speaker 1: So they were brand new, fucking jeans. And if you
Speaker 1: remember jeans a man, nice easy off jeans, Yeah, they
Speaker 1: have snap on the snaps you just rip them off
Speaker 1: like I'm like, I'm a stripper. Yeah. So if a
Speaker 1: couple about a month ago, I think we talked about
Speaker 1: it on this podcast. There was icing donut icing on
Speaker 1: the freaking share of the radio station of the studio.
Speaker 1: In my brand new jeans that I had only worn
Speaker 1: once I walked by it, and this yellow number yellow
Speaker 1: number five icing I think it's that fucking yellow chemically
Speaker 1: of red number five, which was banned in the seventies,
Speaker 1: but yellow number five still exists. And that's how do
Speaker 1: you know what shape? I think it's called yellow? Number
Speaker 1: five is mombo number. It was a yellow. It was
Speaker 1: a yellow whipped cream icing, and it was on the
Speaker 1: chair and I rushed past it and it got all
Speaker 1: over my fucking brand new jeans. I was fit to
Speaker 1: be tied. I brought those jeans to the cleaners. Sure, well,
Speaker 1: that's their job, clean up, clean them all right. And
Speaker 1: of course at these cleaners, you pay up front ten dollars,
Speaker 1: twelve dollars whatever it is to remove a stain, I said,
Speaker 1: must remove stain. That's a scam. By the way, Well,
Speaker 1: of course the scam paying up front, they pay you
Speaker 1: up you pay up front. That's staying for dinner before
Speaker 1: the food arrives. Well, because if they don't do the
Speaker 1: job properly, then you can't get your money back. See
Speaker 1: if you you could always refuse to pay if you
Speaker 1: don't like the job they do, which is why they
Speaker 1: ever come back, which is why they charge you right
Speaker 1: up front, right or never come back. Or the people
Speaker 1: store there, you know, people store their mink coats, their
Speaker 1: fur coats, their winter coats. They bring them in for
Speaker 1: dry cleaning in March and then they'll come back from
Speaker 1: till October. They just leave him there. Well, I ended
Speaker 1: up picking my stuff up and I said to the guy,
Speaker 1: who whoa, whoa, whoa, what's this? I could still see
Speaker 1: the yellow It's still yellow. This the yellow stain is
Speaker 1: still there. And he goes, yeah, we tried. We tried
Speaker 1: our best. We tried it twice. Uh, you know, nothing
Speaker 1: that we have is gonna solve this problem. So I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: that's great. You charged me sixteen Hello, Uh what's up? Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: you that's it. We we went it went through the cycle.
Speaker 1: So it went through the cycle twice. They tried their best.
Speaker 1: I'm ship out of luck. What would Broody do? Well,
Speaker 1: For one thing, I would immediately take it to another
Speaker 1: dry cleaner, because I would see if someone else can
Speaker 1: get the stain out. Now I'm paying triple. Well know
Speaker 1: if somebody if someone you're paying dumb double, if somebody
Speaker 1: else confirmed they can't get the stain out, then that's
Speaker 1: then you've done. What are you gonna do? However, I
Speaker 1: would say, look, I paid you full us to clean it.
Speaker 1: They're gonna say, well, we we did did the process.
Speaker 1: We we did, we did the thing. There's no guarantee.
Speaker 1: That's problem is no guarantee. I would not be happy.
Speaker 1: I said, well, I'm either run it through again, well
Speaker 1: you have to charge you again. I'd say, you know what,
Speaker 1: charge me have price, run it through again. But I'm
Speaker 1: not paying full price. But they won't do it because
Speaker 1: they're still using the same chemicals, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: it's a big vat. They throw in a vat. It's
Speaker 1: not a thing, it's not so so I don't but
Speaker 1: don't they owe me my money back because they didn't
Speaker 1: complete the task. They'll say that, they'll say it's some
Speaker 1: kind of crazy chemical. They'll they'll make up some excuse
Speaker 1: so just so so they get paid just for the effort.
Speaker 1: I guess they get yeah, because it's one of those jobs. Man.
Speaker 1: I hate them. I hate the industry and my backup
Speaker 1: the two backup places in my area, the one around
Speaker 1: the corner of the one across the street. They one
Speaker 1: of them went out of business and one of them,
Speaker 1: uh they they they're they're vacationing. They went back to
Speaker 1: their Homeland. It said I went went to see family
Speaker 1: because I went in there once. They were like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: we we We sometimes go back to whatever country they're from,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. And so they were like, we're closed
Speaker 1: for a month, so I can't use them either. So
Speaker 1: I'm like fuck so, so all right, so you're fun.
Speaker 1: So tell me a slice advice. Am I wrong here?
Speaker 1: Or should I just get over it? Scary Jones. I
Speaker 1: have a pair of jeans from the Gap, okay, and
Speaker 1: they're one of the genes I could not wear previous
Speaker 1: to my weight loss. M hmm. So now I'm in
Speaker 1: good old normal day well slimmer Dave Brody jeans, the
Speaker 1: ones that don't have the built in flex that American
Speaker 1: Eagle puts in. Right, So i'mwhearing my my standards. So
Speaker 1: I remember now, oh, it's been a few years since
Speaker 1: I wore these. The button, the metal button at the
Speaker 1: top that you tuck into the loop, the whole the
Speaker 1: loop de loop, you know when you button your pants
Speaker 1: at the top. It had the nub at the bottom
Speaker 1: of it goes into a hole in the jeans. Right.
Speaker 1: The whole had been stretched a little bit so that
Speaker 1: on occasion when you button your jeans and you went
Speaker 1: to open them, the button part would go with the
Speaker 1: left side and come out of the right side, right.
Speaker 1: So I brought it in. And you know, the buttons
Speaker 1: on gap jeans, they say gap on them right when
Speaker 1: you look at them, gap gap gap around it right.
Speaker 1: So I bring the button in and I show them
Speaker 1: the whole, and I said, hey, can you guys just
Speaker 1: sew this whole a little tighter? No problem, no problem,
Speaker 1: pay in advance, of course. So I had something else
Speaker 1: need to be sewn, and that two things need to
Speaker 1: be sewn, and I pick him up Wednesday. I picked
Speaker 1: him up Wednesday, and I put the jeans on and
Speaker 1: the and the button, the buttons looking good, buttons looking
Speaker 1: it's it's fine, it's tight. And did a nice job
Speaker 1: sewing it. But but I'm noticing on my jeans that
Speaker 1: the color of the button is not the same as
Speaker 1: it was, and it doesn't match the rivets on the pockets.
Speaker 1: Something's up. So I look at the button and it
Speaker 1: doesn't say gap, gap gap, cap gap. It says Calvin Klein,
Speaker 1: Calvin climb. Now, unless someone's down there at my crotch,
Speaker 1: which God willing would be nice if somebody was someday,
Speaker 1: but nobody, nobody is. No one's gonna notice it, but
Speaker 1: I notice it. They swapped out my button, either because
Speaker 1: it fits better or because they lost the original one.
Speaker 1: But now I've got a Calvin Climb button on gap Jeanes.
Speaker 1: Am I wrong? It's driving me crazy. But it's so
Speaker 1: small and minuscule, You jewish, I'm talking about the button.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the button. Sorry, it's taney. It's such
Speaker 1: a it's scary. If if they brought your own money
Speaker 1: exchange jeans in and they put a cost O Kirkland
Speaker 1: button on them, you would not be happy. Admit it,
Speaker 1: admit it. A bunction button. A button is there for function,
Speaker 1: not for okay, so I'm not there for style. Your
Speaker 1: button set Armani a X right. I wouldn't give a fox.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't give a fuck. You couldn't give a funk
Speaker 1: if you're Armani buttons. If it's aid a f because
Speaker 1: I don't give I don't care. If it's aid a
Speaker 1: f full of ship, full of ship. No, I'm not, No,
Speaker 1: I'm not. I am. There are certain things that I've
Speaker 1: learned are just not worth fighting for. Certain things. You
Speaker 1: let it go let it go. Okay, and I would
Speaker 1: let it go. Okay, you'r Alexis, you drive Alexis right, Uh, okay,
Speaker 1: you're about to compare my lexus to a pair of
Speaker 1: jeans and a button. Here we go. Let's hear this
Speaker 1: comparison to BMW. Let's hear this analogy. Let's say let's
Speaker 1: say your your floor mats. That's say Alexis on them.
Speaker 1: You bring him in to go to a car wash.
Speaker 1: But when you get back in the car wash, you
Speaker 1: have the same exact call of mats. But now they
Speaker 1: say Chevy on them. That's a problem because they're visible.
Speaker 1: That's visible to the naked eye. No, it's a little
Speaker 1: tiny logo by the gas pedal, a little logo in
Speaker 1: the corner, a little wouldn't mind if it's if it's
Speaker 1: not visible, if it's unobstrusive, don't care, don't care, don't care.
Speaker 1: I only care. If listen the function is there. You
Speaker 1: get to button your jeans again. So so there you go.
Speaker 1: They had to replace days and there was a reason
Speaker 1: why they changed the button, Brodie. It was probably because
Speaker 1: they couldn't work with what they had. So that should
Speaker 1: be a phone call. Hello, Mr Brody. Is it okay?
Speaker 1: If we put a Calvin fucking Client button on your jaans,
Speaker 1: is it the same color? It's a little different. It's
Speaker 1: half the time you wear a belt over your jeans.
Speaker 1: You don't even see the button. I don't tend to
Speaker 1: wear belts either way, Nobody, nobody is gonna ever notice.
Speaker 1: It's the principle of it. I paid full price. I
Speaker 1: want my cap. You're a neurotic. I'm neurotic. You're the
Speaker 1: one who the cream on your pants? Where is the stain? Scary?
Speaker 1: Where on the jeans is the stains? Oh, it's all
Speaker 1: over the fucking thigh and it's on, It's on my ass,
Speaker 1: it's on it's on my left cheek. You got a
Speaker 1: cream stain on your I got a cream stain on
Speaker 1: my ass cheek. That sounds awful. That's the name of
Speaker 1: this episode is cream stain ass cheek. No, I'm kidding,
Speaker 1: that's not or maybe, but really I think there's a
Speaker 1: big difference between that and a button. I think you're
Speaker 1: taking a little bit too uh, all right, all write
Speaker 1: a right or wright a right a right? Alright, Um,

Speaker 1: looking at a menu sliced milf. Yeah, West Virginia term.
Speaker 1: I don't know about sliced milf. But what keystroke could
Speaker 1: have gotten wrong to make that? I mean, there's nothing
Speaker 1: even close on the keyboard that would make sense in
Speaker 1: that place. Milk maybe sliced milk, milk sausage. Is there
Speaker 1: a phone number of the place? No? I got the
Speaker 1: website though, and tell you what, let's call them next
Speaker 1: week on the podcast. Well, thank you, thank you so
Speaker 1: much gamer Clone for that. For that was a grammar
Speaker 1: police moment. Uh, Kim Hills said, I love you guys.
Speaker 1: Wanted to let you know I'm a relatively new listener
Speaker 1: and I love it. Although I've been listening to Elvis
Speaker 1: for a while, I decided to give your podcast to
Speaker 1: listen and now I'm hooked. Keep up the great job.
Speaker 1: That's it. We need more people like Kim Hills in
Speaker 1: this world. Yes, what year will it be when she
Speaker 1: hears this though, because I don't know. Oh, this is
Speaker 1: terrible grammar. Police coming in from Desiree Dadio from Meridian
Speaker 1: or Merridan, Connecticut. M E R I d E n
Speaker 1: uh sent this to you. This was in front of me.
Speaker 1: It was a g MC pick up advertising their roofing,
Speaker 1: siding gutter business. And it has their license number on it.
Speaker 1: But license is spelled l I C E n c
Speaker 1: E linse and that is permanently written. So the fun um. Okay,
Speaker 1: back to you, Bertie, back to me. All right, let
Speaker 1: me see what I have here? Uh, scrolling through my phone,
Speaker 1: which I know you are a big fan of Loody
Speaker 1: sent me this picture and I'm sorry I don't I
Speaker 1: didn't screenshot who it was, so uh, I apologize. There's
Speaker 1: a sign. It's for Compound miter saw on sale new
Speaker 1: lower price three nineteen was three. I love it, Shelly W.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I if I read Shelly W
Speaker 1: last week, I apologize, but good for Shelly if I
Speaker 1: read it twice, Uh, it's you sent me a picture
Speaker 1: of a sign for Buffet Hours, so at dub At
Speaker 1: love to rescue you. What a cute name, Shelly W.
Speaker 1: The Buffet Hours every day. The hours are eleven thirty
Speaker 1: am to close. That's what the sign says in the window.
Speaker 1: Lots of lots of helse very very helpful, very helpful. Um,
Speaker 1: let's see if that woman, Oh so I'm gonna tea
Speaker 1: have to back out here because I'm not in the water,
Speaker 1: Jeffrey at laws t x O U L. How would
Speaker 1: you interpret this picture? The waitress was explaining to me
Speaker 1: it was one adult meal entree for one kid's meal.
Speaker 1: But if you look at the bottom of the the
Speaker 1: asterisk is it says two free meals per entree per
Speaker 1: adult Who would who would be correct in the other restaurants.
Speaker 1: So let me read to you what the sign says.
Speaker 1: It says kids eat free on Halloween free kids meal
Speaker 1: for children twelve and under with purchase of an adult entree.
Speaker 1: So that that's that's obvious, right, you get a free
Speaker 1: kids meal, right, But then it says asterisk right at
Speaker 1: the bottom asterick limit too free kids meals per adult entree.
Speaker 1: Limit two free kids meals per duld entree. So the
Speaker 1: way that's written is you can get to two free
Speaker 1: kids meals. Yeah. Sounds to me like if I'm one
Speaker 1: adult that I got two kids with me. They're both
Speaker 1: eating for free. Right. What it should have said was
Speaker 1: limit two pfamily, two offers per family right, right says
Speaker 1: limit too free kids meals per adult entre so or
Speaker 1: it should say limit too and in parentheses free kids
Speaker 1: meal per adult Andre Burgess right by one adult get
Speaker 1: another kid. But that means you would have to buy
Speaker 1: full too full adults to get two full kids. Right,
Speaker 1: and that's the limit. Oh yeah, that's written poorly. You
Speaker 1: know what you would take advantage of that? I would
Speaker 1: demand satisfaction. You would have some fucking lutely right right.
Speaker 1: I didn't tell you how I'm gonna what Facebook? That's
Speaker 1: a Facebook store. I get to that in a minute.
Speaker 1: Uh let's see. Did I tell you about my when
Speaker 1: I ordered my food from actively? How they screwed meat?
Speaker 1: I tell you that we are you? Are we done
Speaker 1: reading emails? No? No, no no, no, that's why I just
Speaker 1: I'm I'm crossing it over. It's hold on h oh,
Speaker 1: that's different thing. Um. This was sent to us by
Speaker 1: Megan Loreen l O r e N. She d M me.
Speaker 1: She sent me a picture of a place near where
Speaker 1: she lives called Chad's Pizza and she's she wrote, pizza pizza.
Speaker 1: Would you go to Chad's Pizza? Uh? Probably not? Based
Speaker 1: on this podcast and the way we the way we
Speaker 1: have opinions, probably not we go to Chad's pizza. I mean,
Speaker 1: i'd like to think that if you're if you have
Speaker 1: the balls to open a pizzeria and your name is Chad,
Speaker 1: it's better be damn good. Chad is selling keish, Chad's
Speaker 1: out on his yard eating like or dervs. Chad's not
Speaker 1: eating pizzazza. Hey, I'm Chad. How you doing? No, that's
Speaker 1: not who Chad is. Hello, I'm Chad. Would it served
Speaker 1: on some avocado toasts with cheese what we call a pizza? No?
Speaker 1: Way am I going to Chad's pizza. I'm sorry. And
Speaker 1: if you live near Chad's Pizza, go ahead and go
Speaker 1: ahead and send us an email that you think it's
Speaker 1: the best. Send us a piece of pizza. No, I
Speaker 1: don't want chade. I want to taste it. I want
Speaker 1: to know that it sucks. Amanda sALS Amanda Lane eight
Speaker 1: two saw this and had to ask is basing the
Speaker 1: recommended tip in the app on the total after adding
Speaker 1: the delivery fee or is this a Scamboni seems to
Speaker 1: me it should be based on the sub total before taxes.
Speaker 1: So looking at the the order her order in the
Speaker 1: app that she ordered from this restaurant, it says uh
Speaker 1: suggested tips, and it shows the amounts. Right, the sub
Speaker 1: total of her order was, which is normally the amount
Speaker 1: you tip on always the sub total after taxes. A second, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: you don't tip on taxes. I do. Well, you're an idiot.
Speaker 1: It's just easier. No, it's not just easier. Look, how
Speaker 1: is it easier? You look at the total, You look
Speaker 1: at the total. If something comes to the building, if
Speaker 1: the bill comes out to forty three, ball in right,
Speaker 1: I'm round that to me. There's the taxes in there.
Speaker 1: I'm rounding up to fifty map I'll give him ten bucks. Boom, Okay, great,
Speaker 1: that's great. What if your totalist and then the tax
Speaker 1: makes it your logic is stupid. I move up to
Speaker 1: eleven dollars. Well, you can do that without the tax.
Speaker 1: Regardless of the tax. You can still up. You can
Speaker 1: round up. But yeah, but they're getting less of they're
Speaker 1: getting less of a tip if you don't tip the
Speaker 1: government taxes. They didn't do anything for the tax. You're
Speaker 1: typical on the food they brought. Yeah, but at this point, no,
Speaker 1: everybody assumes that you're gonna tip on the final number. There.
Speaker 1: If you're the first person I've ever heard of tips
Speaker 1: on the tax on pet bullshit, you're waste of money,
Speaker 1: ship bullshit. Everybody tips on the final whatever they see
Speaker 1: that number. When you see that number, whatever, that number
Speaker 1: isn't black if if hold on a second, if it's
Speaker 1: if it's in black with the fucking underline, and it's bold,
Speaker 1: it's black and bold right there, boom that number. You
Speaker 1: always double it and you get your you get your
Speaker 1: double it, you know, double take tempas I'm saying, no, no,
Speaker 1: no, no no, you move, you move the decimal points over.
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. I
Speaker 1: don't don't tip on tax that's ridiculous. Once again, if
Speaker 1: a bill is a hundred dollars, for argument's sake, if
Speaker 1: and that's the final number after taxes, I'm giving twenty bucks, well,
Speaker 1: then you're a douche and you're a piece of ship
Speaker 1: and a cheap skate for giving seventeen I'm tipping on No,
Speaker 1: I'm giving eighteen I'm tipping on ninety two. Well that's
Speaker 1: that's that they didn't do the eight. You see a
Speaker 1: hundred bucks, you get twenty boo. Now you're a wasted
Speaker 1: that's yeah, you're you're awful. You're an awful human being
Speaker 1: for doing that. I guarantee people are gonna look at
Speaker 1: your fucking side. I'll be like, look at this motherfucker.
Speaker 1: How did he The bill is a hundred dollars and
Speaker 1: the motherfucker gives me eighteen d teen dollars. Oh so
Speaker 1: if I go to a state that has high tax
Speaker 1: I have to tip more. If I go to a
Speaker 1: state it's just I tip less. It's a small number here,
Speaker 1: This isn't it? Back to Amanda's dilemma. So she's got
Speaker 1: the sub total the tax and a four dollar delivery fee,
Speaker 1: and they're basing the the tip percentages on the total
Speaker 1: of the tax and the delivery fee. So now you
Speaker 1: have to tip on top of the delivery fee. Is
Speaker 1: that what you're telling me? Scary? It all together? And
Speaker 1: the delivery fee goes to the store I know, or
Speaker 1: goes to grubhop or whoever the app splitting Splitting Hair
Speaker 1: you're telling me you're tipping on the app fee. I
Speaker 1: have to see the way it's configured. It's I'm telling
Speaker 1: you what it's configured right here. Sub total tax seven,
Speaker 1: which delivery fee total? Which company was seamless? I don't
Speaker 1: know which one it was, doesn't matter. H this person, Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't have to know what they were tired during
Speaker 1: the pandemic that give him extra money. You don't know
Speaker 1: what they did. They could have just gotten hired, cut
Speaker 1: it out and no one was going out to eat
Speaker 1: during the pandemic. So they work because they worked their
Speaker 1: balls off, risking their lives to deliver you food to
Speaker 1: your fucking plush couch. They deserve it. They deserve the
Speaker 1: extra money. They didn't work any harder. They drove a
Speaker 1: car like they do now. The people like you, the service,
Speaker 1: the service industry people deserve it all the time. These
Speaker 1: workers deserve every penny they can do all the time.
Speaker 1: But Jimmy and his mom's Corolla didn't work over tip
Speaker 1: over to more money. Jimmy, everyone should over tip. Why
Speaker 1: am I over tip? And Jimmy? This is the problem
Speaker 1: with America. America. It's a problem, It's an issue problem.
Speaker 1: He has the problem with America. People are serving you,
Speaker 1: and people spend on their feet all day. For twelve hours,
Speaker 1: you're in a restaurant. They're going back and forth dri
Speaker 1: a call. Guess what I'm giving them twenty dollars and

Speaker 1: By the way, I'll tell you something I feel guilty about.
Speaker 1: You wanna talk about feeling guilty? Yeah, what show up
Speaker 1: at the station today? And of course candy appears, because
Speaker 1: it always does, and it looks like somebody took their
Speaker 1: overstocked Halloween left over candy and dumped it all over
Speaker 1: the counter. But they were good. They were good things
Speaker 1: in there. They were kit cats and hershes and Reese's
Speaker 1: peanut butter cups. I'm like, oh my god, this is awesome.
Speaker 1: So all morning I'm like nosh ing on it, munching
Speaker 1: on it. A little piece of candy here, a little
Speaker 1: Mr Goodbar there, will crack all over there. We talked
Speaker 1: about that last week and then Scotty's like, you're enjoying
Speaker 1: the candy. I said, yeah, he goes, good, good, I'm
Speaker 1: glad that that was Cooper's. And I'm like, what are
Speaker 1: you doing? What? What the fuck? Because yeah, Cooper's Halloween candy.
Speaker 1: We caught her. What did you when you caught her?
Speaker 1: We told her she's not allowed to have candy in
Speaker 1: her room. She went Halloween trick or treaty and she
Speaker 1: took some of the candy in a stash and hit
Speaker 1: it in her closet and we found it. So we
Speaker 1: punished her by removing all the candy. We took it
Speaker 1: away and I brought it in a giant bag and
Speaker 1: I brought it to the radio station and I threw
Speaker 1: it all over the counter for everyone here to eat.
Speaker 1: So I'm happy that you're eating Cooper's candy. Now I
Speaker 1: feel like you should had I said, Scotty, that's an
Speaker 1: awful position to put me in. I'm eating your fucking
Speaker 1: daughter's hard earned Halloween candy. He goes, Yep, serves her right,
Speaker 1: she deserves it. She's this is her punishment. I think
Speaker 1: it's awful. That's awful. You don't think it's terrible? Ye?
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that? Would you do that? To your kid. No, okay.
Speaker 1: So so that it was a rule in their house
Speaker 1: don't hide the candy. You can have the candy, but
Speaker 1: don't hide it. So she hid some candy and then
Speaker 1: they found that. You know, I guess Scotty found it.
Speaker 1: He grabbed it all through it in a bag and
Speaker 1: brought it to the radio station and fed it to me.
Speaker 1: That's terrible. I didn't earn this candy, not I I
Speaker 1: felt it. I felt terrible to doing but I ate
Speaker 1: it anyway. He was good, Yeah, you didn't feel so
Speaker 1: bad that you took get and gave it back to her. Well,
Speaker 1: I didn't give it back to her. I just I mean,
Speaker 1: isn't it awful? Will you do that to your kid?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just I felt I felt very
Speaker 1: guilty whatever. Speaking of candy last week, I mentioned that
Speaker 1: I was gonna return the Halloween candy. Didn't use right
Speaker 1: that this sack of candy, sack oh candy, the sack
Speaker 1: of candy bars. So I go back to Target, as
Speaker 1: as I do, and I go to the customer service
Speaker 1: desk with my bag of candy, and she says, yeah, okay, sure,
Speaker 1: do you have your receipt? I said, no, but I
Speaker 1: have the credit card that I used to purchase it. Okay,
Speaker 1: not not a problem. Mm hmm, not a problem. And
Speaker 1: I put the card in and she says, uh, oh,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, wait a minute, this is halloween candy.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think I can take it back
Speaker 1: and she asks a supervisor, and supervisor says, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't bring back halloween candy. Did you buy this
Speaker 1: for Halloween? Oh? So? I so. I looked at the bag.
Speaker 1: I said, it doesn't say Halloween candy. It says party
Speaker 1: pack on it. I bought it for a party. You
Speaker 1: don't know what. How would I bought it for? She says,
Speaker 1: you're telling me I can't return it if I bought
Speaker 1: a folloween. I said yeah. So she says, well, would
Speaker 1: you buy it for? I said, I bought it for
Speaker 1: my daughter's dorm room. She's going back to college. But
Speaker 1: she decided she's a diet she didn't want it. So
Speaker 1: she looks stunned. Stunned she's met her masters what the
Speaker 1: problem is and she says, ohh okay, we'll take it back.
Speaker 1: You you you can't tell me why I bought She
Speaker 1: look I said, look, if this is halloween candy, right,
Speaker 1: it would have Halloween themes. It would be orang it's
Speaker 1: if it's bat shaped or pumpkin shaped or whatever like Halloween.
Speaker 1: Well even pumpkin could be fall. But if it says
Speaker 1: like Halloween. Addition, I get it. I get it because
Speaker 1: it's Halloween gay pack you sell all year round. You
Speaker 1: can't prove when I bought it a y, so I said,
Speaker 1: I bought it for my daughter. You did, Yeah, huh, okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: I win, Brody wins. That's actually very funny. I'm surprised
Speaker 1: she questions you, to begin with, I'm surprised she actually
Speaker 1: questioned it, seeing that it was regularly branded year long candy,
Speaker 1: like the like the brand that you see or the
Speaker 1: you know, the packaging that you see all year long.
Speaker 1: It's probably what she's been been used to for the
Speaker 1: past two weeks, right, people bringing back in the best
Speaker 1: week one, people bringing back the goods. Brody, be honest,
Speaker 1: but why did you buy that candy but for Halloween?
Speaker 1: But that doesn't preclude me from bringing it back. It
Speaker 1: doesn't say you can't bring back candy, and it doesn't
Speaker 1: even say you can't bring back Halloween candy. The Arbitrarlie
Speaker 1: just saying, oh, yeah, you can't bring back candy bought
Speaker 1: you bought for Halloween? Okay, what if you bought what
Speaker 1: if you what if you mysteriously bought it on October?
Speaker 1: It's coincidence my home from school, which she was, she
Speaker 1: came home. I'm just came home for the weekend. Devil's advocate.
Speaker 1: That's bullshit. I can't prove this. I can't prove this.
Speaker 1: I have a bit of a dilemma for tomorrow night.
Speaker 1: Tomorrow is Saturday night, Saturday. What are you doing? So?
Speaker 1: I have a choice. One of my all time, all
Speaker 1: time favorite singers, rock singers, heavy metal singers from one
Speaker 1: of my favorite bands from back in the day. He's
Speaker 1: solo now and I was gonna go see him last
Speaker 1: year and his show got canceled. Well, he's playing. He's
Speaker 1: playing New Jersey tomorrow night. He's playing. He's playing a
Speaker 1: decent sized club venue, New Jersey tomorrow night. I'm all
Speaker 1: set to go. I bought my tickets yet I have
Speaker 1: not brought my ticket, but I'm but I'm psychic, and
Speaker 1: I know the guy. I've become friendly with him. Oh
Speaker 1: you know you live no dick? He uh. He he
Speaker 1: also produces up and coming talent and he needed he
Speaker 1: wanted advice on a pop star, and he reached out
Speaker 1: to me as because I had reached out to him
Speaker 1: that I was a fan. He saw where I worked
Speaker 1: and said, oh, I have this really really good up
Speaker 1: and coming female vocalist that wants to transition from rock
Speaker 1: to pop. Can I pick your brain? And I said, oh,
Speaker 1: are you kidding? Absolutely? And so he came up to
Speaker 1: see one hundred. I got to meet him, take pictures.
Speaker 1: I met her. She's very talented and uh, she ended
Speaker 1: up going back to rock music because she's really hot
Speaker 1: and she's really like she's a rocker, like she's like
Speaker 1: Katie Brabs. No, she's um uh no, she's good. She's good.
Speaker 1: Her name is Rachel Lauren l O R E N.
Speaker 1: I believe anyway. Yeah, she's really pretty, really talented rock singer. Anyway,
Speaker 1: So I've become friendly with him, have his phone number now.
Speaker 1: But he's somebody that used to go seeing concert when
Speaker 1: I was younger, Like I were a big fan. That's
Speaker 1: pretty cool. Who is this? I'm all set to go, Well,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, but I'm most set to go see
Speaker 1: him tomorrow, and I get it. I get I see
Speaker 1: on um Instagram one of my favorite comedians I can
Speaker 1: say his name yet is playing Carolines all weekend. I
Speaker 1: can't go tonight. I don't think I can go tonight,
Speaker 1: which means i'd have to go to Marrow morn. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Now unless I go to the concert and run to
Speaker 1: the late comedian show. Comedy show at Carolines, the greatest
Speaker 1: place to see a comedy club performance. Huh. So I
Speaker 1: don't know what to do. It's Michael Rappaport. Oh, he
Speaker 1: was on this podcast. I remember. It was my idea
Speaker 1: to have him on as a gain. You fucking liar.
Speaker 1: By the way, I would like you to play the
Speaker 1: Michael Rappaport I d did for us, but you don't
Speaker 1: have it. He can you please bring that home? Yeah?
Speaker 1: That's great. You have a choice between. I have to
Speaker 1: see if I can go to the concert. If the concert,
Speaker 1: let's say the concerts at eight opening act, he goes
Speaker 1: on at nine, Maybe he's done by ten thirty, I
Speaker 1: won't be able to get to the eleven show in time.
Speaker 1: I won't be able to get to it. So I
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know if I don't have to
Speaker 1: do both or now, how far away are the two
Speaker 1: venues well ones in northern New Jersey. I guess it
Speaker 1: would probably take me forty five minutes to get into
Speaker 1: the city and then park at a garage. I don't
Speaker 1: think I can make it because Michael Michael is gonna
Speaker 1: go on probably ten o'clock. What time is the seven
Speaker 1: seven thirty with an opening act? Maybe? So I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna make it, but Michael's doing two shows. Can you
Speaker 1: go Sunday to see Michael? No, I'm I gotta watch football,
Speaker 1: No kidding aside, he's not playing Sunday. Big comics don't
Speaker 1: play Sunday's like Carolines Friday Thursday, Friday Saturday. Yeah, wow,
Speaker 1: that's tough. I'll tell you what. I'll go see rapping
Speaker 1: Port in your place, and then I'll tell you about
Speaker 1: the show. Yeah, and I'll make sure to get in
Speaker 1: touch with him and let him know that the anti
Speaker 1: fan is coming. He didn't want him on our show.
Speaker 1: And he's fantastic. He's a boy he uh he during
Speaker 1: the pandemic many social media. I gotta tell if you
Speaker 1: like what he says, he's fantastic. If you hate, if
Speaker 1: you don't like when he says you're gonna want to
Speaker 1: punch your phone. And by the way, if you haven't
Speaker 1: heard the Michael Rapp Report episode, why don't you scroll
Speaker 1: back listen to forties. I think listen to them. It
Speaker 1: says Michael Rapp Report right there on the title. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was really good. He was really funny. Listen to
Speaker 1: that episode. Kept we kept it neutral? We did we
Speaker 1: get the neutral? Something else? Um, I I can tell
Speaker 1: you about a shopping problem my head. Dude, when do
Speaker 1: you not have a shopping problem? Um, it wasn't so
Speaker 1: much a problem. It was one of those where I
Speaker 1: the sign wasn't helpful and I told him it would
Speaker 1: be a good idea to help fix the sign, and
Speaker 1: they didn't. So you've been a shop right, I have
Speaker 1: anyone anyone listening? You've been to deli counters where you
Speaker 1: take a number and you tell the guy or the
Speaker 1: woman what you want and they slice it for you. Well,
Speaker 1: the shop right, one of the shop rights that have
Speaker 1: the many shop rights near me now has digital screen
Speaker 1: ordering only, like when you go to wah Wah or
Speaker 1: you go to like seven eleven, you order the food
Speaker 1: on the screen. So it's a stupid system. So you
Speaker 1: go and you say I want meat. Right, Then it
Speaker 1: says do you want uh turkey or beef products or
Speaker 1: or catering. So let's say you hit turkey. Now it
Speaker 1: says you want plain turkey or season turkey. So you
Speaker 1: choose season turkey. So I want to order a quarter
Speaker 1: pounds of let's say Chipotle turkey. Then after you order
Speaker 1: it hit add to cart. Does it go back to chicken?
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, it goes back to the main menu,
Speaker 1: which is moronic. So now you have to go, I
Speaker 1: want Deli meat, I want chicken, I want season chicken.
Speaker 1: And then pick another chicken. Right now, I want KARAOKEI chick.
Speaker 1: Poor app build out, poor app build out. So you
Speaker 1: place your order and there's a sign on the glass
Speaker 1: of the counter. World the meat is, it says, because
Speaker 1: you enter your phone number, it says pick up your
Speaker 1: food when ready at the olive bar. What scary, right,
Speaker 1: So it says behind the olive bar. Where's the olive bar?
Speaker 1: Thank you doesn't tell you where that is? So I
Speaker 1: say to the guy, I'm sorry, where's the olive bar?
Speaker 1: He says, you go over there, You make a left
Speaker 1: and you go around it's over there, I said, Do
Speaker 1: people ask you that all the time? Yes. Everybody who
Speaker 1: orders asked me where the olive bar is? So I said,
Speaker 1: wouldn't be easier to put it in the instructions. Why
Speaker 1: don't you just put it there on the located behind you, uh,
Speaker 1: behind the by the bread, because that would be too
Speaker 1: too easy. He goes, yeah, it's a good idea, and
Speaker 1: his co worker goes, yeah, yeah, yeah. I go back
Speaker 1: two weeks later. Nothing, I'm nothing. No, of course, not
Speaker 1: that is cursing the darkness rather than lighting a candle. Yes,
Speaker 1: the epitome of that, to be quite honest. And you
Speaker 1: know it's funny. It's a it's a it's an eight
Speaker 1: by eleven like a printed sign, and the lettering is
Speaker 1: only the top half of the sign. You can right,
Speaker 1: there's enough room for turn around and buy the bread.
Speaker 1: Is the olive bar? Everybody? Every I walked, I stood,
Speaker 1: I waited, I watched, I watched as I was waiting
Speaker 1: for my food. Everybody, excuse me, where's the olive bar?
Speaker 1: Excuse me? Was the olive bar? Excuse me? No one
Speaker 1: of them is motivated enough to write. Take a pen
Speaker 1: or a magic marker and write this is what the
Speaker 1: olive bar is. Turn around. This is stupidest thing. Also,
Speaker 1: they could do, you know what the store manager should do.
Speaker 1: Turn the olive bar around. The turn the big thing around,
Speaker 1: because on one side is an olive bar and the
Speaker 1: other side is a shelf with the food. Turn it around.
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's wired to the floor and
Speaker 1: his air conditioning unit in the bottom. Turn it around.
Speaker 1: Turn it around, Turn it around, Jerry scar I, Um,
Speaker 1: I I feel like I don't want to. I don't
Speaker 1: want to jinx myself. I don't want to jinks. I
Speaker 1: don't want to jink myself. Okay, but if you notice,
Speaker 1: I'm the only person that hasn't gotten sick in the studio.
Speaker 1: Everybody every day we have our big show that was
Speaker 1: ram big show. And I have a theory here. I
Speaker 1: could be wrong, but basically everybody has has gone down.
Speaker 1: Everybody's sick someone they're sneezing their cough, and everybody's got
Speaker 1: a little something there. I'm clearing their throat and I
Speaker 1: know it's that kind that's part of the season and stuff,
Speaker 1: but I for some reason, I'm like a cockroach. There's
Speaker 1: no way that I'm getting you know, I have not
Speaker 1: gotten sick. Now. I attribute this to the fact that
Speaker 1: I never stopped the party. See, I wasn't exposed. I
Speaker 1: was exposed to germs since the since I never stopped
Speaker 1: throughout the pandemic, I've been everywhere. I've been going places.
Speaker 1: I feel like this has now helped my immune system
Speaker 1: because because I've built up this the tolerance, because I
Speaker 1: was able to get all these viruses and things in
Speaker 1: anatomy and whatever, and I was just kind of take
Speaker 1: it as a comes and I feel like now I'm
Speaker 1: a stronger person for it. Now that could be a
Speaker 1: complete fallacy. I'm not a I'm not a doctor, are you?
Speaker 1: Are you an NFL quarterback? Quarter at medical researches out
Speaker 1: the window, bro. But I'm just saying again, I don't
Speaker 1: want to get hung knocking on wood. You've built up
Speaker 1: an immunity by putting yourself in dangerous situations. I just
Speaker 1: feel like your your body is immunity. I've come through.
Speaker 1: I've come through luckily thus far. Now keep in mind,
Speaker 1: it'll all It'll all change because I've jinxed myself. But
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, for the sake of this podcast. Up
Speaker 1: until this recording, things are I've been okay. I've been okay,
Speaker 1: and I'm I think your regular life is such ship
Speaker 1: you don't even realize when you're sick. I think you're
Speaker 1: such bad healthy might really even realize when you're ship.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's what it is. I think you're always out
Speaker 1: of breath, and you're always winded, and you're always tired,
Speaker 1: and you're always exhausted from from a day at standing around.
Speaker 1: Don't forget you're the guy who you pulled a muscle
Speaker 1: in your back from you wanting. I know. I think
Speaker 1: you're such a bad physical specimen at times that you
Speaker 1: don't even realize you're sick. But by the same token,
Speaker 1: I went to Florida and just just this past weekend
Speaker 1: and I partied my face off Thursday, Friday, Saturday night.
Speaker 1: I was around people, we were hanging out, We're parting,
Speaker 1: we were screaming across the room, we were drinking. Were
Speaker 1: you drinking? Are you what? Are you standing still? And
Speaker 1: you were you were out of breath. No, I was
Speaker 1: doing all that differently, Who's doing all that? And then
Speaker 1: I came back and they get sick? You know, I
Speaker 1: don't know, Gandhi gets a little sick everyone's get a
Speaker 1: little into the wed. I don't know. I don't know
Speaker 1: what it is you're spreading it. I don't know. I'm
Speaker 1: just it's just an observation, Just an observation, Bertie. Is
Speaker 1: that all it is? That's it? All right, that's it.
Speaker 1: I'm sure there are people out there like me. That's
Speaker 1: why I'm mentioning it, because I know that there are
Speaker 1: people that never were, people that never get sick. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But I don't think that's because you haven't. Like I
Speaker 1: don't think disease entered your body and you fought it off.
Speaker 1: I think you've been fortunate enough. Maybe because you breathe
Speaker 1: out so much, you keep breathing away. I think because
Speaker 1: you've been maybe that's what you do. Maybe and and
Speaker 1: the disease goes. Maybe I've been. Maybe I've been like
Speaker 1: breathing polluted air my entire life. You're a super spreader.
Speaker 1: Maybe you're the guy who carries the disease to other people.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's your role in life. Yeah, that's why everyone's sick.
Speaker 1: Mr mucus am I the Green Snubb commercial that was
Speaker 1: a sponsor of yours at one point. Here they're coming
Speaker 1: back in January. Oh, I'll remind you to play the jingle. Then, yes,
Speaker 1: but not right now because guess what, they're a sponsor
Speaker 1: right now? Oh, I didn't tell you the text message
Speaker 1: about your jeans about so you were bitching about your gensamy,
Speaker 1: somebody texted in and said, why would Scary go to
Speaker 1: the dry cleaners? Wouldn't it be cheaper if he just
Speaker 1: brought another pair of jeans? So here's what I want
Speaker 1: to know. Here's what I want to know from this person.
Speaker 1: Does this person pay a hundred dollars to go to
Speaker 1: the dry cleaners? Or does this Does this person think
Speaker 1: that his does this person's genes cost five dollars? Because
Speaker 1: that's the only way his tweet, his text message makes sense,
Speaker 1: because I don't know in what world a pair of
Speaker 1: jeans is the same price as going to a draw.
Speaker 1: I think he meant it as a joke. I don't
Speaker 1: think he meant it literally. No, it was he said
Speaker 1: some of the things like he's so stupid. I didn't
Speaker 1: want to put that in there, but he was like,
Speaker 1: he's so stupid. Why what you need? Just buy a
Speaker 1: new pair of jeans? Oh okay, So so again, do
Speaker 1: you pay a hundred dollars at the drying cleaners. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying you pay a hundred dollars for your geans scary,
Speaker 1: But some of your jeans are hundred dollars some of
Speaker 1: your nineties. The theory ones, right, the theory, yes, that
Speaker 1: was for you. The theory ones. Yes, that's my theory. Right. Oh,
Speaker 1: I got a little on my jeans. I got a little.
Speaker 1: So I don't think this person is a slice, but
Speaker 1: I want to give a shout out to this person.
Speaker 1: Do you know the song? Um, I'm gonna you know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull the song up as I'm telling you
Speaker 1: this story every day? Is he the police officer you're
Speaker 1: talking about. No, I'm gonna tell you the police story
Speaker 1: because after that, every calling me, oh my god, the
Speaker 1: Jersey kids calling me, don't answer that. Don't answer that

Speaker 1: to give you the exactly what I wrote back to them,
Speaker 1: And I'm sure they're a good person. I said, might
Speaker 1: be time to pick a different song, just saying and

Speaker 1: devoted to fans. They get their minions to request songs
Speaker 1: on Twitter and on text messaging. Right, please play this song. Please?
Speaker 1: Doesn't want to hear they're not even listening to the
Speaker 1: radio station. They're just giving people from here's a text
Speaker 1: textee one hundred, New York. They're a big radio station.
Speaker 1: Here's a text message. This is what they do. They
Speaker 1: give them the text number and then they say copy
Speaker 1: and copy and paste his message, right. And they don't
Speaker 1: like the fans. And my favorite part is, do these
Speaker 1: companies think we're fucking stupid that we don't, that we
Speaker 1: don't they're the ones that picked the songs, that they're
Speaker 1: fan armies, that they're not at four o'clock in the morning,
Speaker 1: like they're really listening to the radio station from Minnesota. Right. Also,
Speaker 1: when you text Elvistar in the morning show and you
Speaker 1: text at ten o'clock at night, we're not gonna see it.
Speaker 1: People are like, oh, hey, Elvis, I love what you talk.
Speaker 1: We're gone to ten a m. East Coast time. We're gone, right.
Speaker 1: The only way anybody sees it is if I have
Speaker 1: the screen open on my computer at home and like
Speaker 1: while I'm working from home and I accidentally look at
Speaker 1: it and I see Elvis's name or something. But other
Speaker 1: than that, like the jocks at night, tell them like,
Speaker 1: don't why are you what are you doing? This is
Speaker 1: on our personal phone. This is a screen that the
Speaker 1: entire radio station sees all day. And if it's something
Speaker 1: really important. Sometimes it's a really nice text message, please
Speaker 1: do it while we're on the air so we see it.
Speaker 1: We don't want to miss a text message. All right,
Speaker 1: So this this fan army person texts in, please play
Speaker 1: blah blah blah bla blah blah blah. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: credit the song. It's not by anybody I've ever heard before.
Speaker 1: It's not somebody that a hit music station would ever play, right,
Speaker 1: because we play hits. We don't play songs that nobody
Speaker 1: heard of. We play songs that are established hits. And
Speaker 1: that's a whole other story how that happens. And but
Speaker 1: the follow up to the text message just says, leased
Speaker 1: play blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. You can
Speaker 1: stream it on any platform, right, So I wrote back, great, god,
Speaker 1: our guest. But the point was, it's so popular, it's
Speaker 1: on every platform. Well you know what, you know what
Speaker 1: on every platform this podcast, but Elvis isn't gonna play
Speaker 1: it on the true story, True story. So I was like,
Speaker 1: so that was my snarky text message of the day.
Speaker 1: I wrote back, Yeah, you can stream on every platform. Enjoy, goodbye,
Speaker 1: good bye, peace out. Oh my god, I'm dying to
Speaker 1: het foone on Blondes. Then play it, play it. You
Speaker 1: have it on your phone. I know you do. I
Speaker 1: heart radio is free. You don't have to pay for that.
Speaker 1: All right. So I'm picking up my daughter at school
Speaker 1: on Wednesday, maybe Tuesday, Monday Tuesday, went doesn't really matter.
Speaker 1: It was after the podcast, uh uh this week? So
Speaker 1: it was Monday Tuesday. So the entrance to the giant
Speaker 1: hill that goes down to the school that she goes
Speaker 1: to is part of a plus sign. A plus sign
Speaker 1: meaning the road goes north and south. And then you know,
Speaker 1: like like a plus sign, it's a four way right,
Speaker 1: but it's not a folly intersection. There's the main road
Speaker 1: that goes north and south. There's the road that goes
Speaker 1: let's say it goes east, okay, and then across the
Speaker 1: road is a street that goes up a hill to
Speaker 1: the west. Got it. So there's four entrances, right, but
Speaker 1: it's a main road. And then one part of the
Speaker 1: plus sign goes down to my daugh to school, and
Speaker 1: one part of the plus sign goes up the hill
Speaker 1: to where people live. Okay. Uh. There's a line of
Speaker 1: cars that comes northbound and lines up in the right
Speaker 1: lane to pull into the the line to the school
Speaker 1: pick up. There's a turning lane going south that turns
Speaker 1: in to the hill to go to my daughter school.
Speaker 1: And it's right where the street that goes up the
Speaker 1: hill to where people live is you. Got it's a
Speaker 1: it's a it's an intersection. I'm envisioning it, Okay, But
Speaker 1: remember that there's no stop signed there's no red light.
Speaker 1: There's a main road, and when you have a clearing,
Speaker 1: you make the left into the parking lot, or you
Speaker 1: make the right into the parking lot into the onto
Speaker 1: the hill that goes down, and usually when you get
Speaker 1: there to pick her up, the line on the hill
Speaker 1: is all the way back up to the top of
Speaker 1: the hill, so you have to wait till it moves
Speaker 1: a little bit so you can turn onto the hill.
Speaker 1: You follow me so far, okay, I am the first
Speaker 1: car southbound in the turning lane, getting ready to make
Speaker 1: the left onto the top of the hill. When there's
Speaker 1: enough room I can squeeze in. Okay, so I do that.
Speaker 1: I have a choice. I can stay there, or I
Speaker 1: can make the left and just fit my ass in
Speaker 1: my car into the line where it's not sticking out
Speaker 1: into the oncoming traffic that's going northbound. So I decide,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm gonna do it. I make the
Speaker 1: turn and i'm my park now because it's about ten
Speaker 1: minutes to the hour, which means the line on the
Speaker 1: hill is not really gonna move now until the top
Speaker 1: of the hour when the doors open and the kids
Speaker 1: start coming out. So I put my car in park
Speaker 1: and I turned the engine off, and I call. I
Speaker 1: call a doctor's office to make an appointment. So I'm
Speaker 1: leaving a voicemail. Hey, this is David. You know Brody.
Speaker 1: I'm calling for dr blah blah blah. I'd like to
Speaker 1: him boom, what happened behind me? Not my car? Oh?
Speaker 1: Now again on the top of the hill. So my
Speaker 1: trunk is right by the edge of the road. Okay,
Speaker 1: the lane next to the turning lane. So the lane
Speaker 1: that's going straight southbound. A car at full speed, which
Speaker 1: is about forty mile smashes into a car that was
Speaker 1: coming down the hill coming out of the other street
Speaker 1: right behind me. Oh, so I hear and and he
Speaker 1: didn't have time to stop because all the heir was
Speaker 1: dam It wasn't even like so he hit him going
Speaker 1: full speed. So I don't see the accident because I wasn't.
Speaker 1: If I had been the car in the first spot
Speaker 1: in the turning lane, witness, you would have seen the
Speaker 1: whole thing. But all I heard was the big smath.
Speaker 1: So I jumped out of my car. There's a silver
Speaker 1: uh BMW with a guy who looked like as nWo
Speaker 1: somewhere around there. Young guy and an older overweight guy
Speaker 1: in a nine nineties Camaro green Camaro that must have
Speaker 1: been coming out of that side street. The front of
Speaker 1: his car is gone. The front of the BMW is
Speaker 1: laying in the road. The cars. I saw the cars
Speaker 1: spinning because I stawted as soon as the crash I
Speaker 1: heard they spun and stopped on the grass on the
Speaker 1: side of the road. They were able to roll like
Speaker 1: like roll the cars on the side of the grass.
Speaker 1: So now the right lane of the road has part
Speaker 1: of a car and the whole front of one car.
Speaker 1: So the right lane is completely the southbound lane is
Speaker 1: completely jamboot traffic with with debris and there's a lot
Speaker 1: so like everybody stopped. There's the turning the Cause south
Speaker 1: and north trying to get into the school, and the
Speaker 1: southbound and northbound traffic now at a dead stop because
Speaker 1: no one can go. I jumped out of my car immediately,
Speaker 1: called immediately immediately. The cause is still smoking. At this point,
Speaker 1: the woman in the first car, who was behind me
Speaker 1: in the turning lane jumps out. She's uh, some kind
Speaker 1: of medical professional. She runs over to give aid. I said,
Speaker 1: I got I'm calling nine one one now, so I
Speaker 1: call him. I say, I get a police officer. I
Speaker 1: tell him exactly where it is, and I said, please
Speaker 1: send an ambulance. One of the guys is injured, because
Speaker 1: I can see the fat guy is having a hard
Speaker 1: time getting out of the car. The teenage guy, I'm
Speaker 1: like the young guy. He's out seeing if the other
Speaker 1: guys okay. The airbag went off and the guy looked shaken,
Speaker 1: so that the officer says to me, what's wrong with him?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just told you to need your
Speaker 1: car accident, send it in, But I don't know what's
Speaker 1: wrong with him. Well, can you tell if he's I go, No,
Speaker 1: I can't. I'm across the street. Can you send an ambulance?
Speaker 1: Like it's a stupid question. I'm always wanted to tell
Speaker 1: me he stupid. I don't. I don't know. I get
Speaker 1: I said, please send anance. Okay, So I tell him
Speaker 1: it's a big accident. Right. So now I see the
Speaker 1: cars aren't moving, so I get out of the car
Speaker 1: and I'm now a traffic cop guy. So I'm the
Speaker 1: guy going, okay, everybody northbound, let's go. And I get
Speaker 1: like twenty cause and I stopped them. I've got the power.
Speaker 1: I stopped them. I waved the southbound cause let's go,
Speaker 1: let's go. So I'm in. I'm wearing my red shirt,
Speaker 1: uh that I wore Monday. It was Monday. I wore
Speaker 1: a red shirt and it's a brody on it Monday,
Speaker 1: and uh, that's the day we didn't do thet podcast
Speaker 1: and nobody saw somebody recognized, you know, because we didn't
Speaker 1: do the podcast. Noah, No, no one was looking at
Speaker 1: my shirt. So for ten minutes, scary. And a woman
Speaker 1: got out of the car in the northbound lane, the
Speaker 1: pickup lane, got out of the car to help me.
Speaker 1: So she's up the road and as I go like
Speaker 1: two hands up, stop, she's stopping the cars five cars back.
Speaker 1: So that because you know, when you this actual system
Speaker 1: going on. So I'm in the road without a whistle
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm Joe officer now and I had the power.
Speaker 1: I gotta say kudos to the people because they were
Speaker 1: all stopping for me because they see what's going on.
Speaker 1: And then they thought you were hired. They're like, you
Speaker 1: know what, this isn't queens right. So so now, so
Speaker 1: my town, the ambulances don't put sirens on. It's one
Speaker 1: of those things. I don't know why, So I'm waiting
Speaker 1: ten minutes. At this point, I'm where the where the
Speaker 1: police officers? Where, where's the ambulance? I said, it's an emergency.
Speaker 1: We're in the middle of a major area of my
Speaker 1: my town. There's major roads on both sides. There should
Speaker 1: be no problem. There's a hospital like eight minutes away,
Speaker 1: there's ambulances everywhere. Nobody's there, so I'm the guy's like,
Speaker 1: I'm like, is he okay? She's like, yeah, he's shaken.
Speaker 1: I'm telling him not to move. He may have some
Speaker 1: back injuries. I don't know. So finally, one there's no
Speaker 1: ambulance and this this traffic. Because I'm directing the traffic.
Speaker 1: The police officer shows up and he's alone one guy
Speaker 1: in the car. He gets out, looks at me, and
Speaker 1: then walks over to the guy at the car. He's
Speaker 1: checking on the guy. Meanwhile, I'm still directing traffic, so
Speaker 1: I say to him, excuse me, officer, Should I keep
Speaker 1: doing this right? Because I don't know if I like
Speaker 1: he thinks I'm just some asshole power tripping, which I wasn't. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: everyone on the hill is gone and my car is
Speaker 1: sitting on the top of the hill, parked with the
Speaker 1: engine off as everybody's going past my car because I'm
Speaker 1: in the middle of the road kicking off their kids.
Speaker 1: So the cop the officer looks at me goes, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm seeing how the guys do it over here. I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: but that doesn't answer my question. I don't should I
Speaker 1: keep like it's I'm not authorized to do this. What
Speaker 1: if I make two cars crash into each other right like,
Speaker 1: I'm not responsible? What if I waved the guy on
Speaker 1: the left and the guy in the right who has
Speaker 1: the right away because his lane is open. What if
Speaker 1: he goes and I waved the guy on the left
Speaker 1: anyway and he crashes into the guy on the right?
Speaker 1: Am I responsible for that? I expect him to give
Speaker 1: me space really quickly. I would have got back in
Speaker 1: my car as soon as I possibly could have and
Speaker 1: just went along your stop again. I felt bad, so
Speaker 1: then out. About three minutes later, the ambulance shows up,
Speaker 1: right but but lights are going but no no siren,
Speaker 1: so no one's getting out of the way. So I've
Speaker 1: got to get the southbound traffic to move so the
Speaker 1: ambulance can get through. Because the ambulance isn't sired firing
Speaker 1: the alarms. I don't care what the ordinance is. Who
Speaker 1: you're trying to be quiet about. You have an injured
Speaker 1: person in a car accident, and you're not putting the
Speaker 1: sirens on the funk out of here. So I let's
Speaker 1: I get the ambulance to come through. I waved the
Speaker 1: ambulance around. I waived the ambulance around. The ambulance goes
Speaker 1: over to the Camaro, and then the police officer. Once
Speaker 1: the guy is being taken care of by the E
Speaker 1: M T. S. He looks at me, goes, I, that's it.
Speaker 1: I not even He goes all right like that I
Speaker 1: and then starts directing traffic. So I slowly back away
Speaker 1: like I've been replaced. But it doesn't say to me,
Speaker 1: thank you, good citizen. You should be commended, thank you
Speaker 1: for doing another and beyond hey, I really appreciate you. Covered.
Speaker 1: How about the fact you send one police officer for
Speaker 1: a major car Listen, you know what they do now
Speaker 1: in New Jersey. You have to have two cars pull
Speaker 1: you over, right, because in case of to protect the
Speaker 1: first officer, you send two police cars. They send one
Speaker 1: police officer to a crime, to a car act car accident.
Speaker 1: Well you don't know that I am. My point is,
Speaker 1: even if one of the police officers is supposed to
Speaker 1: check on the injured person, then shouldn't one one officer
Speaker 1: be sent to do what I'm doing put down road flares? Sucks?
Speaker 1: That's that's my town. I listen. Actually, my taxes are
Speaker 1: really high. You'd think we pay for come to that conclusion.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna trying not to get into an accident
Speaker 1: of your town, Saran. I gotta say, as much as
Speaker 1: the police officer let me down, and you know me,
Speaker 1: I love police officers. My father was a police officer,
Speaker 1: and I felt, really I felt like my dad for
Speaker 1: a minute. I have to say, like I felt like
Speaker 1: my like I had my dad's power when he was
Speaker 1: a police officer, like I was running ship. Not that
Speaker 1: my my father was was a humble man. He was
Speaker 1: not a tough guy cop. He was like I don't
Speaker 1: want to I hope that happens. He wasn't that kind
Speaker 1: of guy. But I felt like, you know, it felt good, scary.
Speaker 1: I have to say, it was like I'm director cars.
Speaker 1: The cars are listening to me. David Broke on the radio,
Speaker 1: a new sheriff in town and his name is David Brody.
Speaker 1: And it wasn't because, oh that guy is a podcast,
Speaker 1: we should listen to him. It was just because they
Speaker 1: were doing the right thing as citizens. So thank you citizens.
