38
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,840

40
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: He was was dead. He was really offended when I

41
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 2: handed him my coat by uh oh yeah, top hat

42
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 2: and my cane when I came in, right. Yeah, you know,

43
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 2: he doesn't like to see people come up in the world.

44
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm actually I'm kind of surprised you didn't

45
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: bring your trophy. I thought you normally have that thing

46
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 1: on you, but not today.

47
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 2: Not today. So it's in the bank, it's in safety

48
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 2: deposit box. As got to be safe.

49
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, as it should be. That's I often wonder what

50
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: people do, like with major awards, you know, when they

51
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 1: have trophies and whatnot, and uh, you know, not that

52
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: I'm comparing Guests of the Year trophy to like an

53
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: Academy Award or an Emmy. I'm certainly not doing that,

54
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: but I am in this moment. What what do people

55
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: do with those? Do they put them on their mantle?

56
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: Do they have them in like a secured locker? Because

57
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: there's some value to those, I would assume.

58
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you know who had a lot of kids?

59
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: A lot of kids?

60
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 2: Adrian Peterson?

61
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah he did.

62
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: He had like eight kids. And I feel like about

63
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: every year and a half you get a news story

64
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 2: talking about how he like is pawning off like a

65
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 2: trophy or something. Right, So I have no children that

66
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 2: I'm aware of. How many children would I need to

67
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 2: have before you think it would be acceptable? For me

68
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 2: to pawn the guest with your trophy.

69
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: One and a half.

70
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 2: So one and a half, that's a curious number.

71
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, one and a half. You would already have to

72
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: have the one child, you know, and then you've got

73
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: one on the way.

74
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 2: And I think you've been doing bedding spreads too much

75
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,799
Speaker 2: because I don't know anybody who has half a kid.

76
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 1: Shout out where the line? Yeah, that's the thing is. Uh,

77
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: I do tend to put everything in has anymore, which

78
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 1: is really making.

79
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 2: Would you just speak in an absolute could you stop now,

80
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 2: you know, quivering on this number.

81
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: I would love to say yes, but it's going to

82
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: be difficult the world I live in.

83
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 2: You need to stop trying to make six and a

84
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 2: half happen.

85
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: Like.

86
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 2: It's not gonna capitalize. It's not split in the difference.

87
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: Nobody thinks it's clever.

88
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: I think it's possible. When football season's over, I'll get

89
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: it out of my system.

90
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 2: But I don't know.

91
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: We'll see Oh, funny story. So you're familiar with the

92
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: predictive markets, no, you know? So a segment we're doing

93
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: now on where's the Line is we're coming up with

94
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: things that we could very well see this year on

95
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: the predictive market, right, and there's some tongue in cheek

96
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 1: with it. But one of the things I brought up

97
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: just yesterday was that the University of Nebraska Lincoln football

98
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: team is gonna have a farm system and the pipeline's

99
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: gonna run through Mill South High School just forty miles away, right, Yeah,

100
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: And because they had just brought in a quarterback from

101
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: Illinois who's transferring to Omaha, who's gonna go to mild South,

102
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 1: but he's gonna live in Lincoln then he's gonna go

103
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: to school there the next year, right literally, So I

104
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: brought this up yesterday because of the quarterback thing this year,

105
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 1: that's going to be the start of the pipeline. Just today,

106
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: there's a wide receiver from Texas coming. He is also

107
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: going to Middle South. He is also going to Lincoln

108
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: after his senior year. Like, it's a thing, This is

109
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: a real thing.

110
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: How crazy is it that twenty years ago we'd be

111
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 2: looking at the college for the pipeline into the.

112
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 1: Pros into the pros.

113
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and now here we are in twenty twenty six. Well,

114
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 2: we got to have that high school pipeline.

115
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't that wild? And My understanding is in some

116
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: states like Texas, this is the thing, this is what

117
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: they do well.

118
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 2: And that makes a ton of sense because we just

119
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 2: found out that Nebraska is going to be getting its

120
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 2: first BUCkies, So BUCkies big Texas brand. Yeah, now we're

121
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,679
Speaker 2: going to start treating football like Texas.

122
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,679
Speaker 1: Man, that's a middle South. You're gonna need to upgrade

123
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 1: that football stadium because big things are coming. Big things

124
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: are common, not that you don't already have great things.

125
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 2: Back to back champion James, But I can't believe you're

126
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 2: distant on the bule. I'm not.

127
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, well, beautiful establishment. It's just if we really

128
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: want to be Texas big, we're gonna need to upgrade

129
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: the facility, which means they're gonna need some donors. So

130
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: I don't know anyone listening wants to become a big

131
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: time donor for Mill South High School athletics.

132
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 2: Do they have nil yet?

133
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: Oh? Those kids are getting paid. I mean yeah, they

134
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: got to be getting paid something, right, have to be.

135
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: Who are the donors? I mean, we're the alumni of

136
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: Mill South Like I'm damn shit.

137
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm I'm shadow band still I think from

138
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 2: Millod South.

139
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: Football games just because you haven't gone to one. Well,

140
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: I mean that's what you determine what shadow band is

141
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: is if you've decided not to go or it just

142
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: hasn't ever come up to guard your shadow band.

143
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 2: All right, flashback to the fall of two thousand. Okay,

144
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 2: so I didn't you know, somebody, maybe myself maybe somebody else,

145
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 2: calls Mode South that morning and says, Eric is not

146
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: going to be to school today.

147
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: Somebody, maybe you.

148
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: I have no idea who made this this call. Okay, YadA, YadA,

149
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 2: ya da. The day that goes on the football game

150
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: is that night I'm in attendance.

151
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: Uh.

152
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 2: And I believe I was talking too loud. You know,

153
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: things got a little rowdy sometimes in the third quarter

154
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 2: when we would hang out with our friend that was

155
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 2: in band, and I think we were yelling and horsing

156
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 2: around and such.

157
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: Well, because you got to speak over all the music. Yeah, yeah,

158
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: obviously that's our I mean, that's our fault first hanging

159
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: around the band.

160
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, too loud. So logohold I get pulled aside, talking

161
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: too loud, horsing around too much. Need to go see

162
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 2: the assistant principal that next morning. Oh and what is

163
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 2: the first thing that assistant principal said, if you're too

164
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 2: sick to coming to school, one would think that you

165
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 2: are too sick to go to the football game.

166
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: All busted.

167
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: So I haven't been to another game since. Really, Yeah,

168
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: I'm I'm afraid I think they probably still got my

169
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: picture up.

170
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: You think you're on their radar? It's you said that

171
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: was in twenty That was in two thousand. Yeah, yeah, okay,

172
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,839
Speaker 1: it's been nearly twenty six years. You think you're on

173
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 1: their radar still?

174
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 2: Well, I mean they haven't apologized yet.

175
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good call. Hey, all right, Well, I

176
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: think this is an awesome platform to demand an apology

177
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: from Millered South Athletic or do we want it from

178
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: the faculty or do we want it just from somebody.

179
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: I don't need it from our principal who had a

180
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 2: you know, checkered past.

181
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: But okay, so we're not asking for anything from the principal. Yeah,

182
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 1: but somebody who represents Millard South High School in Millard, Omaha, Nebraska.

183
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: We're looking for an apology.

184
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: I'm ready to forgive. Yeah.

185
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: Well, no, you seem like it. And honestly the fact

186
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: that I've never even heard that this was still, you know,

187
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: laying on your shoulders, like, I figure, this is something

188
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: you're willing to let go. I would have heard about

189
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: it constantly if it was a thing that you're still

190
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: like upset about it.

191
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,160

276
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 2: didn't show up with much to talk about today. I

277
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 2: feel like that's why our conversation's got.

278
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 1: The way that Well, one thing you did come to

279
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: the table with is and I know because you texted

280
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 1: Kyle and I that you know Kyle famously works in

281
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: the grocery industry. Yea, I used to. And you've decided

282
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: to revolutionize the grocery industry as we know it today.

283
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and just this is a tough audience. It's

284
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: tough presenting ideas to you guys. Because you guys have

285
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 2: poo pooed so many of my ideas, like these are

286
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 2: guaranteed hits, and you guys do nothing with it.

287
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: Well, usually it's like, hey, this the front doors at

288
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: this location are just bad. Yeah, and that location has

289
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: nothing to do with us, so there's nothing we could

290
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: even do about that. Not to mention, whenever you're gonna

291
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: like tear down a wall of any type, that's like

292
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: a million dollars.

293
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,239
Speaker 2: Oh so, oh so you got to sell some more bananas?

294
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: Like what, it's a lot of bananas, Like, I don't

295
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 1: see what the big deal is speaking of bananas. Though,

296
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: before we forget about banas, there was another podcast and

297
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: they were like, you won't believe this. What do you

298
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: think is the you're one selling item in Walmart for

299
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: an entire year? What do you think that item isn't it?

300
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: And I instantly was like, oh, it's bananas and they're like, well,

301
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: it's got to be like a mountain dew or oh,

302
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: probably toilet paper, and we're like nope, bunyanas. Any like

303
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: blew their mind, and I'm like, what you really got

304
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: to think about this, because anytime you have an item

305
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: like that, that's wrung up by the pound. I mean

306
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: that stuff adds up fairly quickly. And bananas, I mean

307
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: everybody buys bananas, whether they eat them or not. They

308
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: got a bundle of bananas on their counter.

309
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 2: You know, it still does annoy me anytime that I

310
00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 2: don't get around eating the banana.

311
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: Do you like banana bread?

312
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 2: I don't know how to make it?

313
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: Okay, you don't know how to make banana bread.

314
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 2: I do not.

315
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: You don't know how to use Google either.

316
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: It sounds like, yeah, well, I mean, who has the time?

317
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: You uh want one thing? I so baking and cooking

318
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: and whatnot used to be fairly easy around here until

319
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: I start getting involved and I start adding halves to everything,

320
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: and then now it's like the ingredients are a mess.

321
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 2: No, but it's call back. That was a good. Call back.

322
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: That was good.

323
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. No. So you know, the banana when they're still

324
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 2: on the counter, but they're all like brown and spotty

325
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 2: and stuff. It's just like, I'm not eating that. Thats

326
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: it bothers me because you know, my brain then doesn't

327
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 2: register with the fact that when I was at the

328
00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 2: register that six bananas was like a dollar thirty Oh right.

329
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, yeah, Yeah, it's really not that much,

330
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: and people get worked up when it jumps jumps, it

331
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 1: goes up a couple of pennies.

332
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 2: It's it's amazing when they talk about, like when the

333
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 2: tariffs were a big thing last year at this time,

334
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 2: there's like a country that it's like ninety percent of

335
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,959
Speaker 2: their trade is like bananas, and it's just like, how

336
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 2: many bananas do you? Like? What's your margin? Right? Like,

337
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 2: you know you make two cents a pound and that

338
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 2: that runs the entire country apparently.

339
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, because you're putting out so many pounds, yeap,

340
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: that act that would make sense. It's no different than gasoline.

341
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: You know, when you really think about it, gasoline is

342
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 1: a penny business, and you know every level of the

343
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: distribution is selling and making something off of the gasoline. Right,

344
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: it's literally the same deal, penny business, but you're selling

345
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,679
Speaker 1: so many gallons that it just adds up.

346
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 2: Gosh, you learn something today, I did.

347
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: I did so anyway, grocery idea. You have this grocery idea?

348
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I sent the se you guys. You guys

349
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 2: hardly said anything about it, which I took as a

350
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 2: little bit of an insult to begin with because I

351
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 2: identified a problem and I identified a solution. So the

352
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: problem was is there too many olds and children in

353
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: the store? Okay, And so my solution was just no

354
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,959
Speaker 2: olds and no children.

355
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 1: Now Kyle didn't respond because he said, well then where

356
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: will you guys shop? I think referring to us as

357
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: being old.

358
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 2: Oh I thought he was calling us children. No, Well,

359
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 2: either way, he's he was wrong.

360
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: He was, you know, coming at us with something. So

361
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: that's that's interesting, because is it where do you find

362
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: yourself in that mix? Like what's the rain?

363
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 2: I mean? So I took that information. I took his response.

364
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 2: I internalized it. I thought a little bit more about it,

365
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 2: and I was just like, all right, so when I

366
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 2: say olds and children, I'm not really defining witches which

367
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 2: or how to come to those measurements. So I thought

368
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 2: of a better idea.

369
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,959
Speaker 1: Better is completely different.

370
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 2: So it's it's just a way for us to determine

371
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 2: in a fair way who gets in the grocery store

372
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:21,199
Speaker 2: and who doesn't.

373
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: Okay.

374
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: So my idea is that there's one entry point to

375
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 2: the store.

376
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: Yep, the party is and so at this entry point

377
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: you build.

378
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 2: A twenty foot by ten foot room. So like a

379
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 2: long hallway ten foot wide, twenty foot long.

380
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 1: It's like a vestibule.

381
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 2: Yes, And then in the dead center of that room,

382
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 2: you put an X in there, and you have a

383
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 2: store employee that stands right there. Now, people when they

384
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 2: want to come in the store, only one person can

385
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 2: be in that bestibule at any time.

386
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: So you're going one person at a time, one person

387
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: at a time.

388
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 2: What if like you and I roll up to so

389
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,640
Speaker 2: grab one of us would have to say, hey, I'll

390
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 2: go first, and then the other one would have to

391
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 2: follow with like an elevator. Yeah, so you enter at

392
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 2: the one end of the hallway.

393
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: Okay, how long is the hallway?

394
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 2: Twenty foot twenty foot my?

395
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: Okay?

396
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 2: And so what you have to do is you have

397
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 2: to get by the store employee without them punching you

398
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 2: in the face. And like I'm not talking like smacking

399
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,199
Speaker 2: on the side of the head or that they're going

400
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 2: to do anything fancy. If they can basically square up

401
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 2: and punch you in the eye, yeah, you can't come

402
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 2: in the store.

403
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: So you're so are you assuming? So when you're eliminating

404
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: olds and children, you're just assuming this store employee can

405
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: take down olds and children.

406
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 2: Well, just that they're not going to have the reflexes,

407
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 2: the motorability, because I've seen some of these people push

408
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 2: cards and they've got you know, they need to they

409
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: need to go to the olds store, right, So.

410
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a whole separate store.

411
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 2: For the old. Well, I assume they'll figure it out.

412
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: And then like maybe like a store I don't know,

413
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: I'm just spitballing toys r US. We'll call it toys

414
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 1: r US for the children.

415
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, So basically, if you go in, you know, person

416
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 2: squares up, they punch you in the eye. Okay, you

417
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 2: turn around, you leave, yep, next person comes in, you know,

418
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 2: I mean children at a certain age they get they

419
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 2: get kind of clever and agile. Yeah, and it's gonna

420
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,640
Speaker 2: be really tough to pin them down. That's fine. I'm

421
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 2: not worried about running them over. But like a toddler,

422
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 2: toddler isn't gonna they're not gonna be smart. They're they're

423
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 2: probably gonna walk up to the person and they're gonna

424
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 2: get punched in the eye.

425
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: They're still getting punched, They're not getting like pushed aside. Yeah, Yeah,

426
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:53,679
Speaker 1: what the liability for punching people in the face for.

427
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 2: A place that they want to get in. Yeah. I

428
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 2: mean I feel like people would learn pretty quick.

429
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 1: Let's go, let's let's circle back. We'll come back to

430
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: the punching in the face. What's what's the problem with

431
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 1: the olds?

432
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 2: They're just slow and they kind of clog everything up.

433
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fair.

434
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 2: It doesn't seem like they know what they want or

435
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 2: where they're gone. Okay, I mean they're probably retired. Yeah,

436
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 2: there's they probably just yeah, they have they have a

437
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 2: lot of time. So it's just like, oh, well, you know,

438
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 2: let me look at this packet of rice, like, oh,

439
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 2: it's mesquite.

440
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, you'd have an older clientele hanging out in the

441
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 1: grocery store from very early in the morning.

442
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, they slowed me out.

443
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: They slow me down, sometimes not even buying anything. Yeah,

444
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: they're hanging out chatting as well.

445
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 2: Be the Pokemon kids.

446
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: The Pokemon kids. Do you remember those Pokemon kids? I

447
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 1: do back of the day with Pokemon. Well, I mean,

448
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: I guess it's still a big deal, but it was

449
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 1: it was different, a big deal back then, like kids

450
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: actually played the game.

451
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 2: Well, you had no way to share, so true, you

452
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,919
Speaker 2: had to physically have people in the same spot as

453
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 2: you to show off your your goods.

454
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 1: That's a good point. We didn't have the smartphones like

455
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 1: we do today, and so they would go to of

456
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 1: like the the cafeteria area of the grocery store and

457
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: just play Pokemon on like a Tuesday night.

458
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 2: It was carrying a big Pokemon binder. Probably gonna slow

459
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 2: you up, uh huh, gonna make a little bit tougher

460
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 2: to get by that guy, orkl.

461
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 1: I mean, so the old will slow you down, the

462
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: children slow you down. How quickly are you wanting to

463
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: get in and out of the grocery store?

464
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 2: I mean, I want to set a new record every

465
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 2: single time I go in there, like I know what

466
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:28,400
Speaker 2: I want.

467
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: So it's a competition for you, well, I.

468
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 2: Mean against myself, like I want to constantly be improving.

469
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: So you're since you're limiting who's in and I'm assuming

470
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: you want like minded people going into the grocery store

471
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: and getting past the guy that punches you, or are

472
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,959
Speaker 1: you challenging the store employee and you you're just saying, oh,

473
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get past this guy punch of people.

474
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 2: Oh one hundred percent, I get by him.

475
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: Okay, So you also are getting challenged like everybody's got everying.

476
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 1: So then you get through, the employee standing on the

477
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: X doesn't punch you in the face. What if he

478
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 1: does punch in the face, but you just it doesn't

479
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: bother You keep going, No, no, you gotta leave. Okay,

480
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:07,959
Speaker 1: So if you get punched, you're out.

481
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 2: It's like tag yeah, okay, so you just leave, you leave.

482
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: You Probably it's like a dodgeball situation. Yeah.

483
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 2: Maybe there's a stand outside that just sells like frozen peas,

484
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 2: you know, something to push against your your eyes so

485
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 2: it doesn't get as black, you know, so you're not

486
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 2: like a little side hustle.

487
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 1: Maybe. Yeah, so you've got somebody separate selling frozen p's

488
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 1: out front.

489
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 2: I don't buy peas, so I don't really care how

490
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 2: long the line is to get those.

491
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: But did you have like a bag of frozen peas

492
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: in your freezer right now? Just specifically for its situations like.

493
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 2: That, I'm not afraid of getting punched in the.

494
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: Face, Okay, all right, okay, So the grocery store with

495
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: no olds and no children and just people zipping through

496
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: as fast as they can, I mean, is it the

497
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 1: same set up as you see today with all the

498
00:24:58,720 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: departments and.

499
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 2: Would be the only thing you have to change of

500
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 2: the store is just building the entryway. Otherwise you can

501
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 2: leave everything about the store the same.

502
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: So all these years that you've been complaining about the

503
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: front doors at this specific grocery store was the problem.

504
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: There was nobody standing in the middle of a long

505
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:15,400
Speaker 1: hallway punching.

506
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 2: People, well, checking people, checking people for checking people to

507
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 2: make sure that they're not gonna get my way.

508
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: All right, this is wild. So you this is gonna

509
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: impact a lot of things at the store. I mean,

510
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna sell nearly as many things you're asking. So

511
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: the staff, I mean, the staff is gonna be running

512
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: around like wild, trying to keep up with all the

513
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 1: people running around fast through the store to fill you.

514
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 2: Know, well, so no, no, hold on, hold on, hold on. Okay.

515
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 2: So I mean you have the extra employee that's sitting

516
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,719
Speaker 2: there punching people in the face, But you don't need

517
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 2: any extra staff. I mean, that's the thing about it.

518
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 2: It's like I'm a very responsible shopper, Like I'm not

519
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 2: intentionally like messing stuff up. I don't have like old

520
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 2: limp hands that are just gonna knock stuff over, old

521
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 2: limp hands I'm not like a little kid that's just

522
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 2: you know, licking everything that's within the two foot of

523
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 2: the floor.

524
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 1: No, I will say, I've never seen a child in

525
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 1: grocers licking stuff.

526
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, who knows what they do. It's disgusting. What

527
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 2: what this is?

528
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: Wild? So you want a store that caters one hundred

529
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: percent to you, yes, and eliminates the people that you

530
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: do not like. Yes, Okay, we're getting to the bottom

531
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 1: of this. So it's not really so much a suggestion

532
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: for the grocery industry as much as they don't cater

533
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: enough to your wild dreams.

534
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,479
Speaker 2: Well so, but I feel like there'd be a lot

535
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 2: of appeal out there. I feel like a lot of

536
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 2: people want to.

537
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: Shop like me, all right, There is a lot of

538
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: people want to get in and out quickly. So to

539
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: your point, that's true.

540
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 2: Oh we could. They could put all self checkouts. They

541
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 2: wouldn't even have to have like they just need like

542
00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 2: two people up front.

543
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: No, you can't do that. Do that?

544
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 2: What do you mean you can't do this?

545
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 1: Stores were doing that. It became a problem twofold number one.

546
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,639
Speaker 1: People were like, oh, you replaced all the people's jobs.

547
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: Look at this, Even though that's just not true at all.

548
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: Number Two, people just are stealing stuff. Oh all right,

549
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: I mean they're not usually actually using the self check out.

550
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 2: So we've got the twenty foot by ten foot entryway,

551
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 2: put the employee in it. Yeap. What if we did

552
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 2: a twenty foot by five foot exit okay with an

553
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: employee in the middle.

554
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 1: Were they standing on the X or No.

555
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 2: They're standing on the exit in the middle, okay, And

556
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 2: you got to show your receipt to get out or

557
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 2: they punch you.

558
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's Costco Costco. You ever been to Costco? No,

559
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 1: you got to show your receipt, They dig through your cart,

560
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: they make sure that everything's there.

561
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

562
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: I've never been punched, but I also wasn't stealing anything either, So.

563
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 2: We would you want to steal something if you knew

564
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 2: that it was going to lead you getting punched? Well?

565
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: No, no, did you hear my stuff?

566
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 2: I heard it earlier. Oh and you chose to not

567
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 2: acknowledge it.

568
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: Well, first of all, I'm wearing headphones, so I don't

569
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: know what you can hear. But that was so loud

570
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 1: it had to have been heard. Like, my stomach is

571
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: upset that this is even a topic conversation.

572
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 2: I think it's I think your stomach's nervous that you'd

573
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 2: get punched in the face.

574
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 1: I'm getting punched in the face over getting in a

575
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: grocery store. Again, what's the age? Like, what are we

576
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: talking about here? Like? How close are we to the

577
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: point of getting punched in the face just for oh,

578
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: I being old?

579
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 2: I'm probably a good thirty years from getting caught with it.

580
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: So we are you say you we are?

581
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 2: You are probably closer to eight eight, So it's what

582
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 2: you're kind of slowing down.

583
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: I am slowing down, damn it. Although hey, I'm also tall.

584
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: So I got breaking news. Breaking news, Johnny, You're gonna

585
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: want to listen to this because this is going to

586
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: impact you because you may have a job longer than

587
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: you thought you were. Okay, I had a doctor's appointment

588
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: earlier in the week, and it turns out the new

589
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: medicine I'm on is working. Yes, it turns out there

590
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: is a chance and my crosses are going to remission.

591
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: So we are on your path to victory here, which

592
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: I would think gets me a few more years into

593
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: the grocery store. What do you think it?

594
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it just comes down to your moves.

595
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Well I'm certainly physically like I'm still agile,

596
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: like I still move yeah, yeah, yeah.

597
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 2: But when you're not having to, you know, test those

598
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 2: moves against Braden out on the basketball hoop? Oh man,

599
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 2: how are you gonna are you gonna keep sharp?

600
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what it's. It's uh, it's something that

601
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: I never thought, like, you know, you and I we

602
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: went to high school again, we actually taught. We opened

603
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: the show talking about mills out. You know, after school

604
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: there was like a summer, like a spring, where we

605
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: played a lot of basketball, right, a lot of one

606
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 1: on one and I was I remember it as I

607
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 1: was tearing some shit up, like I was beating some people.

608
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: I was winning some basketball games. I mean, you can

609
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: correct me if I'm wrong here, but I distinctly remember

610
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 1: winning some games. Flash forward to you know, the last

611
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,239
Speaker 1: few years, and now I've got a son that's at

612
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: that same age that I was back then, and uh, boy,

613
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: that fella, he he puts me in my place sometimes

614
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: and it really mentally, I'm still that kid in the

615
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: backyard of my parents' house beating people. But physically I'm

616
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: getting stuffed.

617
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 2: What's up with that? I mean I seem to remember

618
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 2: you getting stuffed back then.

619
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 1: No, no, that's not true at all. Wait, how if

620
00:30:56,160 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: all right, let's let's just for argument's sake, say you're correct. Okay,

621
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: even though I don't believe you are, let's just say

622
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: you are correct. How is it possible that I remember

623
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: it so differently because I distinctly remember just beating people,

624
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: except for Mike, who had my number, like he was

625
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: like my arch rival, like he, for whatever reason, could

626
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 1: out physical me and have those longer arms and could

627
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 1: he was.

628
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 2: He was by far the best defensive player. Oh yeah, yeah,

629
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 2: because the rest of us were like, well, I don't

630
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 2: want to touch the other person.

631
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: Which is wild because you're the you were the tallest.

632
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just like I don't want to box this,

633
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 2: like yeah, he's gonna he's gonna touch me, Like no, no,

634
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 2: I'll back up a little bit more. Mike was just

635
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 2: like animal all hands.

636
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: Hmm, well, I remember being pretty good.

637
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 2: Why don't you keep that image in your head. Don't

638
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 2: don't ask me to pop pop that bubble.

639
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: Because like if yeah, because if you pop that bubble,

640
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: like I don't even know where to go from here,

641
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: Like I'm you know, luckily, who knows. With the news

642
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 1: I just shared and the girl's potentially going to a remission,

643
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows. Maybe I'll get back out on

644
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: the court.

645
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 2: I mean who knows? Honestly, Yeah, I think if you

646
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 2: get back on the court, you're definitely not going to

647
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 2: get punched in the face by the by the grocery guy.

648
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 2: By the grocery guy.

649
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: What kind of fellows or ladies are standing on the

650
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: X to punch people? Just normal people, just normal people.

651
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it don't matter. I mean, it's just another thing

652
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 2: to schedule.

653
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 1: There's no age. I mean, there's like age limits to

654
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 1: everything now.

655
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, well, if they're bad at the job.

656
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 1: Like, can you imagine if you world up and you

657
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: were able to just walk around?

658
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I mean if they were bad at

659
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 2: the job, I mean you got to pull them off

660
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 2: of it. Yeah, I mean I'm sure that's the same

661
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 2: as like a cashier, Like you know, you probably have

662
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 2: this cashier up there and you're like, you're a really

663
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 2: nice person, but you are the slowest cashier that I've

664
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 2: ever encountered. Ever. Yeah, you encounter that quart, You're we're

665
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 2: not putting you back at the deli. You're gonna make

666
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 2: sandwiches now? Yeah?

667
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: You know, well we need fast people in the food

668
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: service too. Well, if I was working in the grocery store,

669
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: I guess I yeah, I still think of it that way,

670
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: Like anytime somebody may it was twenty plus years whenever

671
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: somebody brings up something, you know, grocery operational or whatever,

672
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: I instantly my brain starts spinning, like, all right, well,

673
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 1: what's how's that work?

674
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 2: Like?

675
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: How what kind of person do we need? What's it

676
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: gonna cost? Like I just start running the numbers and everything.

677
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: And as you're talking about extending the front lobby into

678
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: this long twenty foot hallway and then having somebody standing

679
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: in the middle prepared to punch people in the face,

680
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: just choosing who gets in who gets out, not choosing

681
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 1: Oh they're punching everybody, ye yeah yeah, So I guess

682
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: it's not really a choice. It's you're punching everybody. But

683
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: to have that you create, I.

684
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 2: Think there's some employees that would excel at that.

685
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 1: Oh there'd be something that would want this job. Yes, yeah, hmm,

686
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: this is something you would I mean, you have to

687
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: give them breaks their their fists, their poor fists, would

688
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,240
Speaker 1: get pretty sore quickly.

689
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 2: It also like, as I'm kind of thinking about it now,

690
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 2: you'd almost need like a bouncer or two, like at

691
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:20,399
Speaker 2: the front doors. Uh, because you know, like grandma gets

692
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 2: punched in the face, like she could have family member

693
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 2: that let's to come back.

694
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: So here's the thing now you've got, you've got?

695
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 2: Uh?

696
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 1: All right, So a normal like busy grocery store in

697
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: the Midwest, Okay, twenty thousand to fifty thousand people through

698
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: the door every week. What what you're gonna diminish that

699
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: people aren't gonna want to get punched. I mean there's

700
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: just good people who avoid the grocery store altogether, which

701
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: I guess to your point, it just plays into what

702
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: you're saying. Yeah, you want less people going to the grocery.

703
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:57,919
Speaker 2: Store when I'm shopping there?

704
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: Oh my, Okay, how many times do you go to

705
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 1: the grocer store in a week?

706
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 2: But once? Okay?

707
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: Do you want to change society as a whole to

708
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 1: make it more comfortable for you and your one trip

709
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: a week? There are people who go every day.

710
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 2: They better be fast, damn it.

711
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: Well that's going to impact a lot of things. I mean,

712
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: have you thought about that have you thought about how

713
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: that's going to impact the grocery industry, the food industry.

714
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 2: I mean not every store needs to do it, just

715
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 2: the one you shop at.

716
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 1: Yes, Okay, so you're specifically calling out the stores that

717
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 1: you shop at. What if you switch downs, what if

718
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: you move again?

719
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I feel like this grocery model would

720
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 2: work for one store in every single town at least.

721
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 2: Let's call it. Let's call it one store per two

722
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 2: hundred thousand people.

723
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: That's what you're calling the store. The store is called

724
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: one per two No.

725
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 2: No, no, that's that's the ratio. So if you got

726
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,839
Speaker 2: like if you got Atlanta that's got six million people

727
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 2: in it, Yeah, thirty of these stores can be there.

728
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 2: Omaha with three or six hundred thousand three stores, we

729
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 2: went three stores, one in North Though, one in South

730
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 2: oh one, and West oh You've I.

731
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: Mean, depending on where part of town you shop in.

732
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 1: I mean you probably have this situation going on right now.

733
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 2: Uh, Lincoln, Yeah, they can't survive without the Olds. I

734
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 2: mean that that's the entire town is the Olds. So

735
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 2: you don't need one there.

736
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 1: That's I ran a grocery store in a small town

737
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: that was predominantly old. It would have been a problem

738
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: for me. Yeah. Man, And you would have wanted this

739
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,919
Speaker 1: because you would come visit what a couple of times

740
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: a year. So you're like, well, I would I need

741
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:53,479
Speaker 1: to build go to gros store.

742
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 2: Yeah. It probably would have been one of them where

743
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 2: I would.

744
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: Have you know, yeah, this is crazy.

745
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 2: Hey, I'll come to des Moines, you come visit me

746
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: up there. Yeah, oh you know that's my halfway.

747
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 1: Well, I think this would cause a ripple effect through

748
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 1: the food industry as we know it. That would be detriment.

749
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 1: I mean, is this going to I mean it does

750
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,439
Speaker 1: add a level of service I guess to the people

751
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,360
Speaker 1: who do make it in because it's quicker, right, and

752
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: you have less people in the store.

753
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 2: Children don't buy anything, They do.

754
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 1: Not buy anything. So to your point, that does help

755
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: the people who do get past the guy or gal

756
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 1: who's punching.

757
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 2: Yes.

758
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: How does this impact grocery prices?

759
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 2: Oh, they'd have to go way up. Yeah, okay, okay,

760
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 2: you got a much much smaller market. Yeah.

761
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 1: I mean, we had a president who ran his old

762
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: campaign on I'm gonna lower grocery prices. You can't just

763
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: be raising prices for your for your needs here.

764
00:37:58,560 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 2: Well, it's not gonna happen.

765
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well, I certainly don't think Kyle's going

766
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 1: to get behind this. I mean, famously, he's in the

767
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 1: grocery business. Kyle also has something of your personal property.

768
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, how long has he had.

769
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 1: That little Napoleon little Napoleon statue, the bust.

770
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 2: It's gotta be going on a decade now.

771
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 1: So for the listeners who don't know who Napoleon is,

772
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: let's not judge. Let's not judge. But for the people

773
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 1: who don't know who Napoleon is, can you give us

774
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 1: kind of a quick synopsis on who he is? I say, quick?

775
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, if you go to the fall of the

776
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 2: Roman Empire, very few human beings have had the impact

777
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 2: of Napoleon.

778
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 1: Napoleon. No, I'm not going to Napoleon dynamite. Okay, this

779
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: is what do they do?

780
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 2: The Emperor of the French, the Emperor of the French.

781
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, get a history. Listen here. So you have

782
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: this like pocket Napoleon bust. Where did this come from? Like?

783
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,280
Speaker 2: Give us it's not designed specifically go into the pocket.

784
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: Oh it's not. No, it's like a pocket size.

785
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 2: It's like you have knickknacks that are all pocket sized

786
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 2: here in your studio. Yeah, I don't. I don't go

787
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 2: here and say, oh, this coffee mug is pocket sized.

788
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: First of all, that's that was a dumb statement coffee.

789
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 1: There's no coffee mugs that are pocket sized. That's a

790
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: coffee mug, and in fact, that's a Spiccolian meg in

791
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,479
Speaker 1: the morning's coffee cup. There's nothing, there's nothing to shame there. Okay,

792
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 1: that's that going in your in your pocket. We've got

793
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: a tops Allen and Ginter twenty twenty four Tim Robertson

794
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: baseball card. That's not going to anybody's pocket. You could

795
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: bend it. That's not happened.

796
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 2: Why would you put a cast iron Napoleon in your pocket?

797
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 1: Well, I'm just saying it could. It looks like it

798
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,399
Speaker 1: would fit in your pocket. I guess it wasn't made

799
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 1: to go in your pocket. No, okay, No, you don't.

800
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 2: Carry that around, all right, that's fair. Well, you couldn't

801
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 2: fly on an airplane. You can go in a baseball stadium,

802
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 2: is that true? I mean a big a metal in

803
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 2: your pocket?

804
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,840
Speaker 1: Am I misremembering how big this thing is?

805
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 2: No, it's it's really small. It's like little the size

806
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 2: of this fireball bottle.

807
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:12,239
Speaker 1: Okay, pocket size. Okay, So give me the backstory on

808
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 1: the on the Napoleon, Uh not the guy the boss.

809
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,280
Speaker 2: Can I talk more about the guy you want? Napoleon

810
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:25,440
Speaker 2: would have gotten to any grocery store. He's very low

811
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 2: to the ground, very like a cat.

812
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, he could have been. He could have been. Maybe

813
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:32,879
Speaker 1: somebody would have called him a child.

814
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 2: So friend of the Pod.

815
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,720
Speaker 1: Bob Roberts, Oh yeah, Guest of the Year nominee yes.

816
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 2: Was over in France, and he picked it up for me,

817
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 2: gave it to me, and I had a tendency to

818
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 2: pull it out of my coat pocket not pants pocket,

819
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 2: coat pocket when challenged to a game of risk, and

820
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 2: I needed his advice as a attempted world conqueror.

821
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 1: I think my favorite part of this is there's people

822
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: that are probably like, he just carried that thing in

823
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: his pocket at all times, just in case a challenge

824
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 1: at the game of risk were to come up, Not like, oh,

825
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,800
Speaker 1: you knew you were going to play risk and I

826
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,920
Speaker 1: brought the deployment. This was if if, by chance, somebody

827
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:28,240
Speaker 1: challenged me on the streets or wherever, I would.

828
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 2: Pull this out.

829
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 1: I would pull this out.

830
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 2: I feel like I probably pulled it out at some

831
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,759
Speaker 2: point during a chess game against you. You know, just

832
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 2: again give me that strategic intuition.

833
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:39,800
Speaker 1: I still think that that's probably the first time I

834
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 1: ever saw you would have busted it out on like

835
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:42,959
Speaker 1: a chess game or something.

836
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:44,919
Speaker 2: You know, what's funny is you know, so I've read

837
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,319
Speaker 2: this biography about Napoleon. It's like a twelve hundred page book.

838
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:49,360
Speaker 1: What's funny about that?

839
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 2: Well that I did that like ten years ago, and

840
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 2: that I got the bust of Napoleon probably eighteen nineteen

841
00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 2: years ago. Oh so it way pre day the obsession

842
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 2: with Napoleon.

843
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: Okay, So all right, so we've got the story on

844
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: where the bus came from Kyle. Yeah, so that's the thing.

845
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 1: How did Kyle end up with it? Why do you

846
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: not have it back? How long has it been?

847
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 2: He stole it?

848
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 1: He legit, just stole it, Yes, Where and when and why?

849
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 2: We were playing Game of Thrones risk for the Royal rumble.

850
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 2: Oh okay, and he took it. He put it in

851
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 2: his pocket and I didn't know it was in there

852
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 2: because it didn't make a bulgey and he just waited

853
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 2: until I left, and now he's just been holding over

854
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 2: my head ever since.

855
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: Holy Cow. So that would have been like was that

856
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: that was at his old house in a Holy Cow.

857
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,719
Speaker 2: That was a long time That was a long time ago.

858
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 1: Yeah and yeah, thief, that's like I'm running the numbers

859
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, sixteen.

860
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 2: Twenty sixteen. God, life was so much better in twenty sixteen.

861
00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: It had to have been around then. Wow. So I

862
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: know Kyle. I know Kyle. He displays it in his

863
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: home prominently. I've seen it. Wait what, Yeah, I've seen it.

864
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: I've seen it as recently as last summer. So what

865
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: do you What are we gonna do about this? We're

866
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 1: gonna go there, We're gonna get this thing. What are

867
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 1: we What are we gonna do?

868
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 2: I'm gonna find a reason to get Kyle in a

869
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 2: ten twenty foot hallway and let's just say, I'm gonna

870
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 2: be standing in the middle of Seid hallway and he's

871
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 2: gonna give it up.

872
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: He's gonna give it up, all right. So you were

873
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 1: getting a job at a grocery store and you're more

874
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: is he the puncher?

875
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:47,839
Speaker 2: Wait?

876
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 1: Is grocery store?

877
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:54,319
Speaker 2: Is that what you're saying I don't think Kyle has

878
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 2: the strength to punch. Yeah, yeah, I don't.

879
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,319
Speaker 1: It's just you would put the boss out there punch

880
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 1: of people. Anyway. They'd want people in to sell stuff, right, yeah,

881
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 1: you It would just be counterproductive to put the boss

882
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 1: in the lobby to turn people away, because you want

883
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 1: people in the door to buy things.

884
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, he's got he's got a vested interest in

885
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 2: getting as many people in the door as possible. So yeah,

886
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 2: it wouldn't make sense to put him in.

887
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 1: So this rule almost has to be like government mandated,

888
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: because you what business is going to be like, Yo,

889
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 1: I need somebody keeping me in check. I need somebody

890
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,719
Speaker 1: standing in the door, punch of people so that way

891
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,280
Speaker 1: we can filter out the olds and the children.

892
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,840
Speaker 2: Do you think you could pass this idea on to

893
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,360
Speaker 2: I don't know, Joe Exotic.

894
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he no, he's got their ear.

895
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's friends with Trump, So I mean

896
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 2: if anybody could tell the government about this.

897
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll pass it on to him. Actually, and just

898
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,839
Speaker 1: see that's a good call. Maybe I need to get

899
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: him back on to ask him about this idea and

900
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: what he can do about it, just before he gets

901
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 1: out because I don't. He's a wild card once he

902
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 1: gets out of prison.

903
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to phrase it that you don't like

904
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 2: just from the like, even before you mentioned the punching thing. Yeah, like, no,

905
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 2: you cannot put a tiger in.

906
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 1: The hallway, one hundred percent.

907
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 2: You cannot put it like that's that's dangerous.

908
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,200
Speaker 1: Let's just know right now, no tigers are going in

909
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 1: this lobby, even though it's a correct size.

910
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 2: They would they would eat the toddler.

911
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: They would like, Hey, maybe that's this is the answer

912
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 1: you've been looking for.

913
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 2: Why I don't want to get rid of the toddlers.

914
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:35,839
Speaker 2: I just want them to get punched in the face

915
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 2: so that they don't come and shot there until they're

916
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,320
Speaker 2: spry enough to get past the puncher.

917
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 1: Are we concerned about concussions?

918
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:43,360
Speaker 2: No?

919
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 1: Okay, all right. Are we concerned about hemorrhages of the brain. No? No.

920
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 1: Is there going to be training on where to punch

921
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:52,919
Speaker 1: and how to punch?

922
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:54,839
Speaker 2: Well, again, it's got to be right in the middle

923
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 2: of the face.

924
00:45:55,800 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 1: Okay. So we're gonna be breaking noses and that's fine. Okay, boy,

925
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:05,320
Speaker 1: this is really gonna help the medical industry. So hospitals

926
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 1: and clinics. I mean they'll be busy. You know.

927
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 2: The Sam's Club, you know, will have like a doctor's

928
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 2: office inside Sam's Club. Most grocery stores have that out well,

929
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,840
Speaker 2: so you know, much like the P's. You'd actually have

930
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 2: that still, but it'd be facing the outside of the store.

931
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: There you go, man dry business to them.

932
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 2: You need a prominent sign to that said you're not

933
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 2: allowed to, like punch back.

934
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 1: They're not allowed to punch back. No, you're just you

935
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,800
Speaker 1: can so you can try to avoid it right like

936
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 1: you can.

937
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 2: You can't preemptively punch the person that's trying to punch you.

938
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: No, that's not fair. Yeah. Interesting, I don't like it.

939
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: I don't like it at all. I'll be honest with you.

940
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 2: What about the other idea that I had for the

941
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:54,479
Speaker 2: grocery store of just you're leaving the store, your hands

942
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 2: are full with the bags of just an employee out

943
00:46:56,760 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 2: there that would you know, you're obviously in your sunglasses

944
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 2: over your collar because it's the summer, that would just

945
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 2: pull your sunglasses out and put them on your face

946
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 2: because your hands are full with the groceries.

947
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:11,239
Speaker 1: I remember having an answer for that, which is the

948
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 1: the guys and gals who carry your groceries out for you,

949
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 1: so you yourself can put the glasses on your face.

950
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 1: Just let them take it out with you or leave

951
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,720
Speaker 1: it in the car. You got carry everything.

952
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 2: I would this would slow me down. This would be major.

953
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 1: It would not slow you down to have somebody carry

954
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,440
Speaker 1: the groceries for you. This is absolutely insane. Okay, if

955
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 1: you've no sense, for a guy who's a giant in

956
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:41,920
Speaker 1: the transportation industry, you're really killing business. There's gonna be

957
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 1: less trucks coming into those grocery stores. Did you think

958
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 1: about that? Did you hear my stomach?

959
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 2: Did you hear that a lot of grocery stores use

960
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:52,400
Speaker 2: private fleets?

961
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:53,320
Speaker 1: We could eat pizza.

962
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,439
Speaker 2: Yes, I think it's about time.

963
00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 1: It's about time to need some pizza. Dammit. Well, I

964
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,480
Speaker 1: think you've made a solid case to the start of

965
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 1: your title defense's guest of the year, and that's with

966
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 1: this insane idea.

967
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,640
Speaker 2: Are there any analogies for that in sports of just

968
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 2: somebody that starts their title defense with just this.

969
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 1: That's we're gonna have to think about that, like what

970
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 1: would be the equivalent of that? Because that is, boy,

971
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:29,799
Speaker 1: that is something I mean, that's like Chuck Knoblock. I mean,

972
00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 1: this is an old reference, but winning Rookie of the

973
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 1: Year and then forgetting how to throw a baseball from

974
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 1: second to first. I mean, that's what are we.

975
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 2: What are we doing here?

976
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,080
Speaker 1: You got that Yankee money, though he did get that

977
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,040
Speaker 1: Yankee money, which at the end of the day, that's

978
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:46,400
Speaker 1: what we're all striving that we're all one. That's awesome. Hey, Eric,

979
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 1: thanks for coming on the show with your grocery ideas. Hey,

980
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: we need to get that Napoleon back though we do.

981
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 1: I'm serious about that.

982
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 2: We need to.

983
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 1: We need to really think about that, like how we're

984
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,600
Speaker 1: going to get that Napoleon back, And I think we

985
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 1: should really put something together and see if we can

986
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 1: get back there or later. Yeah, because it's not Kyle's property,

987
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 1: I don't I don't like that he hasn't and you

988
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: just haven't been the same person, honestly for the last

989
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: ten years since
