WEBVTT - #186: Cleaning Up The Balloon Knot 0:00:00.760 --> 0:00:07.360 Start aft dot up, start up, Brooklyn Boy, start up, 0:00:07.440 --> 0:00:12.080 Brooklyn Boys, start dat up. They're making noise. Dat up 0:00:14.160 --> 0:00:21.439 dot up. Episode one eighties six. It's the Brooklyn Boys podcast. Yeah, 0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:26.200 so my Walkers and Talkers podcast, which we started a 0:00:26.320 --> 0:00:29.479 year before the Brooklyn Boys podcast, my co host Jamie 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:33.279 and I started it. Um, we're up to episode one 0:00:33.440 --> 0:00:38.199 ninety three. I think so, because, uh, we take some 0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:41.080 time off occasionally because sometimes the Walking we do a 0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:44.800 Walking Dead review show. Then we review all three Walking 0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:46.680 Dead shows and then a couple of the shows. But 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:48.319 sometimes we take a few weeks off here and there. 0:00:48.560 --> 0:00:51.000 So in our taking weeks off, the Brooklyn Boys is 0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:54.640 only seven episodes behind, right, So now you mention that 0:00:55.520 --> 0:00:58.280 six because when it was one eighty six of Walkers 0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:00.560 and Talkers, I went on a little speech about how 0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:02.720 it reminds me of six, which is the last time 0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:05.280 the Mets won the World Series. And guess what the 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:08.160 way they're playing today? Oh my god, I don't think 0:01:08.200 --> 0:01:10.759 we're gonna see a World Series from them for several 0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:13.920 years to come. I'm really sports fan discussed and your 0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:18.200 team's discussed place for May, June and July, and you're like, 0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:20.080 oh my God, we're gonna, We're gonna, We're gonna win 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:23.080 the division finally, and then a couple of players get 0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:26.119 injured and they just they loose. It's terrible. I bit 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:28.400 my tongue early in the year because when the Mets 0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:31.040 were on a roll in first place and the Yankees 0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:33.640 were shooting the bed, a lot of my Met friends, 0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:37.120 fans friends were mouthing off at the Yankee fans like ha, ha, look, 0:01:37.319 --> 0:01:40.560 and I'm like, guys, don't do it. It happens every year, 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:43.960 wait till past the All Star break. Every year they 0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:47.480 happened first place, but the Mets usually hold on. The 0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:51.360 Mets usually have a great run early and shipped the 0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:54.440 bed towards the end. Let's go back to two thousand 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:58.400 seven two when they when they choked, like at the 0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:01.000 end of the season in September. What I'm trying to 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.920 say is turning into a sports podcast. What I'm saying 0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:07.120 is this, you aren't surprised. I was so not surprised. 0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:10.200 I mean, my eyes couldn't roll harder out of my 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:12.600 head than they have been the last couple of weeks 0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:14.400 to see the Mets drop. We're up to five in 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:16.840 a row. Now that we lost. Yeah, by the way, 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:18.520 you know, they got rained out a lot last week, 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.560 which is the best thing that could happen. But because 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:22.880 of the pandemic rules, and they don't want you to 0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:24.840 have to like be around the other players anymore than 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:28.040 you have to be used to be in baseball. If 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.080 the game was rained, like the rain was so bad 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:33.920 prior to the middle of the fifth inning, they would 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.400 cancel the game and you play a whole new game. 0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:39.679 Now because of the pandemic rules, you just continue with 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.840 the next day. So like, I don't earlier last week, 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:44.680 maybe I think it was last week. The Mets were 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:47.840 getting hammered early and then the rain came, so I 0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:50.040 was like, yes, the old expression is when your team 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:51.880 is bad, you pray for rain in baseball, so I 0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:54.840 was praying for rain forgetting about the rule. So the 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:59.160 game gets rained rained postponed, and instead of the Mets 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:01.520 having a fresh clean and slate, they had to continue 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:04.160 to get him pick it up from being slaughtered after 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:07.280 three innings being beaten, and had to continue to get beaten. 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:10.280 I think they lost like fourteen of four Gusta or 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:13.040 something like that. I will never ever be I always 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:16.200 bite my tongue I never once this season said yeah, 0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:19.200 let's come because here here we go and Yankees are 0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:21.359 on the rise and the Mets are on the fall. 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.679 Speaking of you not being the biggest sports guy, you 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:28.359 played golf this week. You see that. I was gonna apologize. 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:30.079 I was gonna have said, yeah, I shouldn't have said 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:33.200 you played golf. You were there in a golfing environment, 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.880 on a golf course while people were playing golf. Yes, 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.600 you were doing you what you were you were Um, 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:43.000 you were reorganizing the dirt, that's what you were doing. Yeah, 0:03:43.200 --> 0:03:47.000 I was. I was actually creating new jobs for the 0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:50.640 people who take care of the grass, like, oh look, 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:52.600 we gotta we do the grass again because there's all 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:55.760 these divots in it, because he's some dirt. If you 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:57.800 were rost some friends, you would have been saying, da 0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:05.160 great reference. So you got a couple of points on 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:06.880 that one. You know. I was part of a charity 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:10.400 event and I was so excited. It was a charity 0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:13.640 case and a charity event. And I went with Gandhi 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:15.560 from our show the picture on to what looked like 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:17.840 you went to saw I'm not saying an in bed 0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:20.400 so a Gandhi put up video of you driving down 0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:24.360 a road which was lined with trees, beautifully kept, perfect trees. 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:26.320 It looked like something out of a movie. Right. So 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:28.120 you're on a one lane road or you know, one 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:31.240 one lane each way, and off in the distance is 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:34.080 a castle looking castle was a castle in the sky. 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:36.840 It didn't look real. You like, driving down this road. 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:38.600 It looks like it's a quarter mile long at least, 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:40.440 and there's nothing at the end of the road except 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.240 the castle. Castle on the hill, just like she said. 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:47.640 That's it's called Okeka Castle and it's in and it 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.880 is on the National Suffolk border of Long Island, in 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:54.560 Huntington's Long Island. You can call it Woodberry. It's off 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.839 of Jericho Turnpike. You know, you know I love Jericho, 0:04:58.040 --> 0:05:01.680 my favorite turnpike. Yeah, your favorite turn pike to these 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:06.400 days or maybe not so much. I don't know. Jericho's 0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:11.200 really that's a stretch, bro, I'll tell you what a stretches. Yeah. 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:14.280 You try to have your own day. Yeah. So we 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:16.159 went to so we went to Oh he Could Castle 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:17.720 for a charity event. It was a two day to 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:20.000 night thing. We did party in the night and then 0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:22.120 we did a golf thing in the daytime. Now, originally 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:26.040 we were not supposed to play. But Johnny Damon, who 0:05:26.400 --> 0:05:28.360 used to play for the Yankees and some other teams 0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:32.680 and the Red Sox, he uh he was a big 0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.080 fan uh and was going to go golfing that day. 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:39.120 And unfortunately he had some personal issues. There was um, 0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:41.680 I guess the death in the family. Whatever. He didn't 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.120 make it to he could castle, so they scratched him. 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:50.120 And now you have to understand, Brodie, people paid ten 0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:55.160 thousand dollars to have a foursome on the golf course 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.800 with a with a celebrity. I know that sounds filthy 0:05:57.800 --> 0:05:59.880 if you're a non golfer. Four people go out on 0:05:59.920 --> 0:06:03.360 the golf course together and then the fifth person is 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:07.280 a celebrity. Someone paid ten thous dollars for the rights 0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:10.680 to have a golfing outing. Again, old money goes to 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:16.120 charity with with Johnny Damon as a celebrity. How do 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:18.839 you think that conversation went when they in the back 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:21.880 office had a rearrange kind of refund or something and 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:25.040 they said, hey, Johnny couldn't make it today. So you 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:27.840 get Scary Jones and Gandhi from the Elves to Rand 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:34.520 Warring Show and see wow, that's equal right. Uh, you 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:40.840 know what, she's the great great granddaughter of Gandhi something. 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.040 I'll say this, that's a couple of hundred bucks. As 0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:45.160 luck would have it, one of the guys in the 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:47.760 foursome was a huge fan of our morning show and said, 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.360 we'll definitely take them. Yeah, okay, Johnny, can't make it 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:56.720 call scary and Gandhi. Well, Gandhi actually happens to have 0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:59.440 a little gusto when it comes to golf. She knows 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:02.039 what she's doing and she's Gandhi has been there before. 0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:05.680 Gandhi's like like golfed. She had her boyfriend golves a 0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.000 lot and she obviously that was a good student. And 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:11.680 the point, the point is you you cannot golf, right. 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.440 So you got these four guys thinking they're in the Masters, 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.600 you know, earning their green jackets, Gandhi holding her own 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:21.440 and here I am you should have been holding your holding. 0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:25.000 I would have been better off, should been playing with 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.200 your own putter. I was brodie. How do you take 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:29.160 a whack at the golf? At the how do you 0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:31.440 take a swing? How do you how do you take 0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:33.760 a whack and and miss the fucking ball three times 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:36.560 in a row. That's what I here's how you don't 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:39.560 do that. You miss it twice and then you stop swinging. 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.480 That's how you don't miss it three times. I was 0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.480 so embarrassed. I was. They were like, you have to 0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:47.640 stand up next to the ball. You have to line 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:56.160 up ball. Thank you, Honeymooners Norton. Great joke. Uh. Yes, So, 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:58.000 So I don't know what I did wrong, but I'll 0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:01.280 tell you what I did right. Um, I left the 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:04.320 golf course early and let these guys play their game 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:07.640 and finish off because honestly, five six hours with us 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:09.720 on the field, we were just slowing it down. Did 0:08:09.760 --> 0:08:14.040 you say field? Of course that's also a problem right there. Yeah. 0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:16.760 So I lost the two balls that I did hit 0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:20.040 ended up in the water. Lost them. So I'm not 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:22.640 good for golfing. Golfing is not good for me. I'll 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.120 drive the court the car all day, I'll eat the 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:28.000 food at the halfway point, I'll drink the drinks, and 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:30.240 I'll be there for a great conversation. But do not 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:32.199 came on the clubhouse guy. You're more of a guy. 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:36.640 I'm a clubhouse and the shower and lockers guy. After 0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:38.319 some guys are on the back nine. You're just on 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:41.319 your back exactly, chilling on a chase lost. So yeah, 0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:42.960 but it was great. We raised money for d up 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.840 on cancer. So it was a great chair all right, 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:49.640 no jokes. Everything that you ask your own d up 0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.640 on cancer, d up on cancer, right, so it was 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:55.480 d up on cancer. Is that's a good cause. I'm 0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:57.319 not making fun of the cause, just you yeah, just 0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:00.600 because that. Yeah. So anyway, that was it. That was fine. 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:04.120 That one day was that. That was on on Monday, 0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:05.920 on Monday. So let me see what I did. What 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.839 I did Sunday Monday. My daughter, my middle daughter is 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:12.520 away at college. Now. We drove her up to uh 0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:16.800 to college up State New York. And college is beautiful 0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:20.200 and it's oh god, it was. It was a number 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:24.800 of hours, many many hour drive from where we live. Okay, yep. 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:29.560 And as you know, again, what I'm gonna say is nothing. 0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:32.120 It's not an insult on rural areas. I'm just pointing 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.520 out the differences in rural areas to the city ish 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:37.959 area I live in that we grew up in. So 0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:40.760 some of the turns, once you get off the main roads, 0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:44.520 we're going by barns and farms and and trailer homes 0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:47.640 and it's fine. But it's like open space, right, it's 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:50.640 like corn fields and his cows and and so like. 0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:53.040 From one house to the next is like a quarter mile. 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:58.000 This tremendous space. But there's a lot of um like 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:01.360 houses attached to silo and you know, like their bonds, 0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:04.320 which is very cool. I always wondered what happened in there, 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:07.400 Like what do they store in there? Still a grain 0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:10.520 or corn and silos because you don't want to store wide, 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:12.920 so you store high. Takes up less room, right, But 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:14.680 when you have all that space, who gives a funk? 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:18.480 If it's wide? Well, I guess again, because you don't 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.160 want to waste space. You can be growing stuff on 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:24.600 true true well anyway, so there's no bales of hay 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:27.320 in the silos. There were bales, no I was there. 0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:28.880 Would bal say, I don't know what. Listen, people who 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:30.640 have their own silos, they can put a missile in 0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:32.840 the silo. I don't know what's in there. I'm telling 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:34.240 you some of the things they have grain and corn 0:10:34.280 --> 0:10:37.000 with different things. Someone will tweet you, I'm sure and 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:43.480 tell you. But here's the thing I get. While you'd 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:47.240 have a banner for a sports team. Right, you're a 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:51.160 sports fan like Pittsburg Steelers, right, huge fan, Jet fan. 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:54.520 I'm a jet fan. You put a banner. I wouldn't 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:56.240 put a banner of a sports team on my house, 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:58.520 though I might fly a little flag in the front, 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:00.640 like on game day. But I don't know if I 0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:03.800 would put a banner, let's say, like a ten ft 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:07.000 by six ft banner over the side of my house. 0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:09.679 If you have that kind of space, why not on 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:12.760 my house? If you lived where these people lived in 0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:17.240 these rural areas. Okay, so here's where I'm going. And again, 0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:19.880 if you do this, God bless you. I just it's 0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:23.080 not I don't I can't relate to it. There were 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:27.000 a lot of banners for politicians. I think you were 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:30.080 talking about sports teams. No, no, no, nope, nope nope. 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:34.000 And I get you like a politician. But these homes, 0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:36.560 let's say they were like twenty ft why they weren't 0:11:36.559 --> 0:11:39.520 big houses. Half of the front of the house or 0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:42.760 two thirds of the side of the house, sometimes covering windows, 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:47.200 were giant political banners. Some of them said they were 0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.960 rooting for a particular candidate, and some of them said 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:54.240 fuck the other guy. By name, and these are local 0:11:54.760 --> 0:11:57.200 candidates for po No, no, no, these are these are 0:11:57.280 --> 0:12:01.080 big ones, are big ones. But to have a banner 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:04.280 on your house, I'm gonna I'm just gonna say Jones 0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:06.880 because you're scared Jones. Let me say Jones. If you 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:10.240 have a banner that says Jones or Jones twenty four 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:13.800 right on half of your house, and then you you 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:15.400 may have two of these banners because I saw this 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:21.160 one a lot. Fuck Jones right, funck Jones giant back, 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.040 Like I can't imagine the place where I live, where 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:26.760 my family lives, where my kids are growing up. Like 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:28.360 even if you want your kids not to like this 0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:32.120 particular politician, well because you got you got everyone looking 0:12:32.160 --> 0:12:34.959 at that, you got families, right, So, so is it 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:36.679 just that there's nothing else to do in that kind 0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:39.640 of area, Like it's there's nothing to do, Like there's 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.680 there's no like I mean, they do make shopping store fronts. 0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:44.240 Do you make the best corn mazes there? They got 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:47.559 plenty of time to carve it out. It's just like 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:50.079 you see one, you go, oh, that's interesting, right, Like 0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:52.480 sometimes you're driving around like rural areas of our of 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:54.560 our area, Like if you're in New Jersey, you might 0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:57.080 go to half hour west right where it's a little 0:12:57.080 --> 0:12:59.319 more rural, and you might see one house with a 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:02.360 with a flag, a flag or or a little like 0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:05.559 some things in the lawn. These scary. I'm telling you 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:08.440 that we maybe fifteen ten twelve fifteen ft wide six 0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:12.440 eight ft hot giant flag banners. I love this guy. 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:18.120 So I remember my car went with one with one 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:19.240 of my other kids because we had to go up 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:21.439 in two cars. And and she says to me, she's 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:24.120 like interesting, I'm like yeah, So I was like, who 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:28.040 do you think they bought it for? So again, I 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:30.199 don't care who you vote for. It's it's not the 0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:32.760 point of this. It was just like so different, Like 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:35.760 can you imagine in Brooklyn, Like we're growing up so 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:38.240 close to each other, the in apartment buildings and to 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:43.280 family houses with like at banner over the front of 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:46.480 the whole house. It's like a billboard on your house. 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:50.400 So alright, alright, well okay, you know so, but the 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:52.719 thing is by putting those banners out there, they're not 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:55.520 going to influence other people. Well, there's no change to 0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:58.120 change their right to change their minds. Like it was, 0:13:58.280 --> 0:13:59.840 it was, it was it was, It's go away from 0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:02.800 a It's almost say, nobody around this is who I 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:04.959 I want to world to know. It's like giving the 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.679 world the middle finger. Maybe not the world, maybe just 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:10.319 the half people are driving that road occasionally exactly and 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:13.160 pretty much half the people that that traveled down that road, right. 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:18.160 I just was, I was like, fuck Jones fu right 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:19.600 like I like, I would I put a fun the 0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:22.360 Yankees sign on my house. I would think about it, 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:24.920 but not that big. I'm a mad fan, but I'm 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:28.760 not a Yankee hater, right right, yeah, especially since you 0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:31.040 know the Yankees usually end up dominating by the end 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:32.400 of the season. I don't want to be the guy 0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:35.760 that they're coming after, right right. Yeah, I get you. 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:40.840 I get you. Um um um. I was gonna say this, 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:46.760 I got more stories podcast. What's that in your dude, 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:54.360 I'll tell you what it is? Uh? What was that? See? 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.680 He went away? The hamas gone. See it's all it's 0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:01.800 not my equipment, folks, it's Brody. See okay, he disconnected. 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:06.120 He's resetting his line. You're you're clean it is, and 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:08.480 now Brodie signs on you get the echo again. The 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:10.520 Ham is now gone. Tell you what the hamba is 0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:14.680 it's gone. Oh it's there. It sounds better. Now that 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:18.400 was good. What are you doing? I'm not doing anything. 0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:20.520 You hear me. The way it was just a second 0:15:20.560 --> 0:15:23.640 ago was even better. You keep going away and coming back. 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:28.880 I'm here. Now it's bad. Yeah, I moved the microphone. 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:32.400 The problem with this microphone is I know the problem 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:34.680 with the microphone is the USB connector in the bottom 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:39.360 is loose. And so a couple of uh six, eight 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:42.240 weeks ago, couple of months, I opened the whole microphone 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:44.360 up and I crimped it with pliers like you're supposed 0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:46.960 to do on YouTube video, and I tightened it. But 0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:49.280 now it's loose again, so you bump into it all 0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:52.200 you jiggle it, it disconnects for the YouTube how video. 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:55.960 How to videos with electronic equipment never end well for me. 0:15:56.240 --> 0:15:58.200 Now this ended I did. I did worked well, it 0:15:58.280 --> 0:16:03.160 worked well. Well, that's fine. Speaking of it sounds actually 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:06.760 it sounds like I was like before. It's like it's 0:16:06.800 --> 0:16:08.200 like the buzzer they use it on when you when 0:16:08.200 --> 0:16:11.000 you're getting a haircut. No, you know what it's the 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:14.280 it's the fan from my laptop. I didn't turn it 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:18.120 off this afternoon so it's been running since yesterday and 0:16:18.320 --> 0:16:21.640 I have a lot it needs a break. But now 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:24.000 regarding haircuts, I just gonna want to tell you what 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:25.600 happened to me on my last cut. You know, I 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:28.520 got a fresh cut over the weekend. Yeah? Is that 0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:31.480 because you had so many appearances this week? Yes? Okay, 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:33.960 because I want to talk about one specific appearance you had. 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:36.440 I meant to grab the audio, but I didn't, but 0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:38.920 I'll describe it. And you're going, Erica, well really quickly. 0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:41.840 This happened to me, and my my hairstyles tried to 0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:45.080 cover it up. I had. I'd like to have my sideburns. 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:47.760 I like to have my side burns down to, like, 0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:50.400 you know, lower than my ear where my cheek is 0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:52.560 whatever the case, like when my cheeks starts the cheek 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:57.560 boat is a little bit of a sideburn. Well, she 0:16:57.720 --> 0:16:59.920 knows I like that. She cleans me up, and then 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.800 she puts out the buzzers. By the way, you caught 0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:07.200 your car is an ugly piece of ship. Oh sideburn? Sorry, okay, 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:09.440 sorry anyway, So then she puts the buzzer on the 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:13.800 sounds like this, I mean Brodie's audio, and she goes 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:17.159 across the sideburn, and I'm looking in the mirror like, 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:19.760 oh my god, she cut off too much. It's like 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:23.240 way above with the top of my ears. So now 0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:25.720 I'm sitting in well, we're nearly were the top of 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:27.639 my ears. So she was, oh, she goes, She was, 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:31.600 I only wanted to swim a right. Yeah. So so 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:33.560 then she goes to the other side and she's, I 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:37.200 gotta even it out. Now she goes. But guess what 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.679 she did when she even did out. She went too 0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:42.119 high on that one. So now she's gotta go. Now 0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:44.920 she's gotta two ears are competing with each other, the 0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:48.040 two sideburns left to right to left to right to try, 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:52.440 and they were uneven every time before Before long, I 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:55.639 had no sideburns, less left because she couldn't get them 0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:58.080 even what do you mean you can't put hair back 0:17:58.560 --> 0:18:00.760 even as not even even as not even especially in 0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:04.840 sideburn world. So now she's anyway. So yeah, So so 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:07.040 I have like no sideburns, so I'm trying to grow 0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:10.640 it in and not shave up there for a while. Wow, yeah, 0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:14.120 you got screwed over. So you you did an appearance. 0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:16.200 I'm not gonna say where it was, because you couldn't 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:18.480 decide if you want to say where it was. But 0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:21.040 you you have an ability to do something I can't do. 0:18:21.840 --> 0:18:23.720 You can pump up a crowd even when there's no 0:18:23.760 --> 0:18:26.800 crowd there yet. You can get excited when it's not 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:30.000 nothing to get excited about yet. And so for your Instagram, 0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:32.040 you were trying to get people to come on down. 0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:35.440 And so you've you from the great video of this 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:38.920 beautiful place you're at.
