Speaker 1: Other than powerwashing. What can a homeowner do to preserve
Speaker 1: the life of their deck?
Speaker 2: They off it.
Speaker 1: Kashsha Cash Shows Show. Welcome to Tash Show. I'm your host,
Speaker 1: Daniel Tosh. We are here in Malibu, California, and I
Speaker 1: know everybody likes to always talk about how crazy they
Speaker 1: think the people of Malibu are, But I've got some news.
Speaker 1: This is definitely a sign that people here in Malibu
Speaker 1: are not as crazy as I once thought they were,
Speaker 1: because I was confused when I first moved here and
Speaker 1: I found not one, but two large crystal shops very
Speaker 1: close to each other. You know, you see two Starbucks
Speaker 1: next to each other, and you're like, oh, my goodness,
Speaker 1: that's so ridiculous. Hey, but apparently that business model can
Speaker 1: handle that type of saturation. I don't know, but when
Speaker 1: I saw two crystal shops very close to each other,
Speaker 1: I was so confused. I mean, if I saw one
Speaker 1: crystal shop, I'm like, of course these idiots are buying
Speaker 1: crystals and they can afford to have good storefront location
Speaker 1: in Malibu. Well, anyway, both of them have gone out
Speaker 1: of business. Wow, that's good. He's how you're saying, Oh,
Speaker 1: you're applauding a company failing. Yeah, I am, because it
Speaker 1: was a stupid business. Guess what opened up in one
Speaker 1: of the locations. My favorite car wash guy, he turned
Speaker 1: one of it into a detail shop. Yeah, it's like
Speaker 1: a little bit building and now it's it used to
Speaker 1: be crystals and now it's now it's his car wash spot,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna use them constantly. I just I couldn't
Speaker 1: be happier. I told him, I go. The place looks
Speaker 1: so much better now. There's not dumb crystals. I mean
Speaker 1: these weren't like crystals, like like small crystals. These were crystals. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're huge that they have to get craned in and
Speaker 1: they cost like millions of dollars massive, And I'm just like,
Speaker 1: what dumbfuck is spending money on this?
Speaker 2: You know, they are a waste of money because they
Speaker 2: leave them outside and no one steals them.
Speaker 1: Right, there's five million dollar crystals being left outside. Well whatever,
Speaker 1: they're out of business. Good riddans, I say, and I,
Speaker 1: you know, support the new car wash. Probably have him
Speaker 1: on the show soon. I think we have time this
Speaker 1: week to do my favorite segment, Dear Toss Show. That's
Speaker 1: where our subscribers write to me. They're problems and I
Speaker 1: fix everything all right, Eddie, let it rip.
Speaker 3: My wife wants to start watching sports with me so
Speaker 3: we can spend more time together. How do I not
Speaker 3: let this happen? Should I just stop watching sports before
Speaker 3: she ruins them for me?
Speaker 1: I like to where his HEA's at. I dated a
Speaker 1: girl once that really loved sports and knew everything about it,
Speaker 1: and I was miserable the whole time. I can't do this.
Speaker 1: He's right now. Should he stop watching the sports? Now?
Speaker 1: Here's what he has to do.
Speaker 2: In the world of.
Speaker 1: Unlimited DVR storage and hide score technology on all the apps,
Speaker 1: you have to go into your preferences. You gotta change
Speaker 1: your Apple TV so that it doesn't ever put any
Speaker 1: little icon up in the corner. Close game between Miami
Speaker 1: and Charlotte. You gotta get rid of all that. And
Speaker 1: he needs to just start watching all of his sports
Speaker 1: after she goes to bed. And I know what you're saying,
Speaker 1: that's porn time. No no, no, that's got to get pushed
Speaker 1: even later. Okay, so's he's got a block off and
Speaker 1: the and the good news is, uh, you're gonna watch
Speaker 1: it alone peacefully, and you're cut the time, you know,
Speaker 1: in half. Especially if it's a if it's a bad game,
Speaker 1: you can really start jumping ahead. So yeah, you're gonna
Speaker 1: watch the sports after she goes to bed, then your pornography.
Speaker 1: Uh and then uh, and then go to bed.
Speaker 3: That's a brilliant idea.
Speaker 1: Well listen that why That's why I do the segment.
Speaker 3: My girlfriend always leaves her phone unlocked when she does this,
Speaker 3: Is it okay to read her text messages? And if
Speaker 3: that's okay, is it then okay to text people horrible
Speaker 3: messages from her?
Speaker 1: Short answer, yes, But there is some layers to this.
Speaker 1: I used to always take my wife's phone back when
Speaker 1: we were dating, way before children, and I would fire
Speaker 1: off horrible things from her phone and then eventually her
Speaker 1: friend groups like oh okay, this is this isn't carly.
Speaker 1: But I mean I would I would start normal, and
Speaker 1: then I would just get it like ridiculous, like hey,
Speaker 1: oh I think you we should do this, and hey, hey, girls,
Speaker 1: send me photos of what underwear you're wearing right now.
Speaker 1: I'm just curious, Yeah, stuff like that, innocent stuff anyway,
Speaker 1: But now that we have kids, I don't do that.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's too much. Uh. But uh. The second
Speaker 1: thing about reading your wife's text. If you're lying in wait,
Speaker 1: then it's wrong if you're if you're trying to, But
Speaker 1: if you're just bored and you want to read, it's
Speaker 1: it's way more fun to read your wife's text than
Speaker 1: your own. I'd agree, So yeah, I think it's fine.
Speaker 1: And who cares if it's unlocked and you don't know
Speaker 1: their code. I know my wife's code. Trust, These problems
Speaker 1: are easy. This is why I do the segment to
Speaker 1: spread my vast knowledge. Now I don't I don't know everything.
Speaker 1: If you were to ask me a question about what
Speaker 1: type of wood is going to age the best in
Speaker 1: a certain climate, I'd be at a loss. But I
Speaker 1: know who i'd call, the deck Doctor. Enjoy Casa. My
Speaker 1: Guesterday is known as the Malibu deck Doctor, which means
Speaker 1: if you want him to build you a new deck,
Speaker 1: but you live in Santa Monica, you can eat shit.
Speaker 1: He's a total character and one of my favorite contractors
Speaker 1: I've worked with. The Doctor is in Please welcome Freddy
Speaker 1: sim Sullivan. Freddy, thank you for being here. First of all,
Speaker 1: let's start with the simple one. Do you believe in ghosts?
Speaker 2: That's so hard hitting one, right, off the bat, But
Speaker 2: I'll have to say I haven't seen one, but I
Speaker 2: do believe that.
Speaker 1: Where you can't see ghost, they're invisible.
Speaker 2: Then I don't.
Speaker 1: Hey your accent. You from Louisiana? Yeah? Born? And were
Speaker 1: you born in the Bronx?
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, actually I was born in Queens, moved to
Speaker 2: the Bronx at a very early age, the Lovely Bronx.
Speaker 2: And yeah, I can't watch this accent. That's it. I
Speaker 2: just can't. You know, to thirty years in California, look
Speaker 2: at this accent.
Speaker 1: Is it help business? Your accent?
Speaker 2: God?
Speaker 1: Does it hurt business?
Speaker 2: You know what? I gotta be honest with you. I
Speaker 2: you know, if I'm meeting someone from back East, Hey,
Speaker 2: New Yorker, you know everyone else. You know. Basically, I
Speaker 2: just try and tone it down as much as like you.
Speaker 1: Don't tone it down at all. Really, Freddy, the very
Speaker 1: first time I met you, I was like, oh no,
Speaker 1: what did I get myself into? This guy is crazy?
Speaker 1: And first of all, always say a few things about
Speaker 1: I'm I'm very I'm a big fan of yours. But
Speaker 1: you're You're intense, You're a close talker, and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is this is my nightmare. Then quickly I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is the greatest guy ever. I told my wife,
Speaker 1: I'm like, this guy's amazing. You know everything about what
Speaker 1: you're talking about, like your job, you know the woods,
Speaker 1: you know everything about So I was like, well, he's
Speaker 1: smart and he knows what he's doing. On top of
Speaker 1: the fact that he is a maniac.
Speaker 2: And I lovedn't mention handsome at all.
Speaker 1: You're not handsome at all, Freddie, those days have sailed?
Speaker 1: Are you a diehard Yankees fan? Yeah? What about the Mets?
Speaker 1: You like the Mets?
Speaker 2: Mets suck. I'm a Yankee fan. I love the Yankees,
Speaker 2: but I have no real reason for loving the Yankees.
Speaker 1: Now, I.
Speaker 2: Think that's only because I'm from the Bronx. You know
Speaker 2: we got out of the Bronx. Yeah, well, you know
Speaker 2: the place is a piece of ship, So you know,
Speaker 2: I only associate the Bronx, I guess, with being a
Speaker 2: Yankee fan. So that might no. No, now I'm thinking,
Speaker 2: is that the reason why I'm proud of being a
Speaker 2: Yankee fan of the Bronx.
Speaker 1: Did you study decking in college?
Speaker 2: Uh? No?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: How did you get into the offer that?
Speaker 1: How in the world did you get into being literally
Speaker 1: the deck doctor.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you know what. My story is long
Speaker 2: and boring, but I'll edit it.
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 2: I was a hyperactive kid, so I got the heck
Speaker 2: out of New York as soon as I thought I
Speaker 2: was capable of doing something. I was a musician. I
Speaker 2: always thought I was going to be an actor. But
Speaker 2: I got to be honest with you. It came out here,
Speaker 2: studied a little bit, played in some bands late eighty
Speaker 2: did all that stuff, long hair. I'm not what kind
Speaker 2: of music sad to say, glam rock music.
Speaker 1: Lambrock's wonderful. Well, it had its moment.
Speaker 2: Look, I'll be honest with you again. I did. It
Speaker 2: wasn't that crazy about it was in a couple of bands.
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, Guns n' Roses hit, glam.
Speaker 1: Rock just went by the wayside. Do you play the strip?
Speaker 1: Did you ever play on the strip?
Speaker 2: Played on the strip? Gizaris? Let me see, really the
Speaker 2: Rainbow a couple of times at the Rainbow. But you
Speaker 2: know that's it.
Speaker 1: Just you know, drugs not many. You know, it's funny.
Speaker 2: I just and the funny thing was that I was
Speaker 2: working during the day as a carpenter to support my
Speaker 2: my musical and acting lifestyle. I was studying with Susan Strasbourg,
Speaker 2: you know, a daughter of the father of method acting.
Speaker 2: You know, I really thought I was going to get
Speaker 2: in to it, but I had no money to survive,
Speaker 2: you know, and I'm dead tired going to these classes
Speaker 2: at night. So I'm like, fuck this. I said, I'm
Speaker 2: going to just dig in. I'm gonna do what I
Speaker 2: know how to do, and started some just small jobs
Speaker 2: here and there. That kind of led to a few
Speaker 2: other gigs with a few lesser known actors that I
Speaker 2: kind of I like doing it. I like being outside.
Speaker 2: That was pretty much it. And everyone that I had
Speaker 2: no training. Oh no, I've been a carpet this. Oh
Speaker 2: all right, you know why you want to go back? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm fifteen years old. I get arrested for running into
Speaker 2: a Crazy Eddy, which was basically an electronics store in
Speaker 2: New York. Famous electronic store, oh famous commercial Crazy Eddy. Anyway,
Speaker 2: make a long story short. My friends damned me to
Speaker 2: run into Crazy Eddy. I steal something from Crazy Eddy.
Speaker 2: I run out, I jump into the car. They grabbed
Speaker 2: my shoe. Three days later, the cops knock on my door.
Speaker 2: They're like, is this is your shoe, I said, yeah,
Speaker 2: and you're under a rest.
Speaker 1: My parents, if you fell for that, you said, yeah, completely.
Speaker 1: You thought it was the story of Cinderella going to
Speaker 1: the pokey.
Speaker 2: I went to the pokey and all right, you know
Speaker 2: you're gonna you're gonna, definitely you're gonna have to take
Speaker 2: this one.
Speaker 1: What are you buttoning up for? Yeah? Chilling.
Speaker 2: I'm nervous because now I'm about to tell you something
Speaker 2: from here. My mother I told I said, Mom, it
Speaker 2: was a mistake. I mean, she said, You're gonna get
Speaker 2: fucked in the ass, and I said, my god, Mom,
Speaker 2: I started crying on the spot of fifteen years old.
Speaker 2: That was it. From that moment on, I went to
Speaker 2: what they called a board of Cooperative Educational Services program
Speaker 2: where they started to teach me carpentry. Next thing you know,
Speaker 2: I was out on a work program, working for a
Speaker 2: contractor taking English at night at high school. Next thing
Speaker 2: you know, I'm bailing on New York and heading to
Speaker 2: California in my early twenties. And that was how I
Speaker 2: got here, Yes, Santa Monica, Hollywood, trying to do a
Speaker 2: little acting, little music. Uh, and then yes, ended up
Speaker 2: just strapping on my tools and sticking with it, but
Speaker 2: have met a lot of wonderful, really cool people and uh.
Speaker 1: All right, Freddy, I got to know, did you get
Speaker 1: fucked in the ass?
Speaker 2: No? No, no, I'm waiting for that. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 2: I figuratively yes, yes, but but but no.
Speaker 1: No, good for you. Do you like these celebrities try
Speaker 1: to like tell you like, hey, don't ever use my
Speaker 1: name or don't ever say that you've worked on my house?
Speaker 2: All of them? Yeah, look, I work. You know, you're
Speaker 2: a heck of a celebrity. I mean what I mean
Speaker 2: by that is, you know, you seem to be a
Speaker 2: pretty a pretty straightforward guy. Your family guy. You know,
Speaker 2: I like your dog, your wife, your kids. At uh,
Speaker 2: you know, believe it or not, we have more in
Speaker 2: common than you would think.
Speaker 1: I believe it.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's it's just so you know, I have
Speaker 2: had people that I've been so uncomfortable working around that.
Speaker 2: Yeah that I just like, what, you know, what the
Speaker 2: fuck am I doing? You know that like celebrity ship.
Speaker 2: I'm not. I don't even want to associate with these
Speaker 2: people and they're basically my neighbors. But the uh, you know,
Speaker 2: you know, I'm I'm trying to really sugarcoat this. But
Speaker 2: there what happens, you know, really, really what happens the
Speaker 2: most is that. And God bless carly Man, because I've
Speaker 2: had wives of let's just say, you know, more prominent people,
Speaker 2: and the wives come out and they wheeld that ship.
Speaker 2: All right, I've been on a project. I'm not going
Speaker 2: to tell you who it was, but it was not
Speaker 2: far from here. And literally, I take off my I
Speaker 2: take off my shoes. When I walk in your house,
Speaker 2: I take off my shoes.
Speaker 1: I tell people not to take the shoes off.
Speaker 2: You go, okay, and I take them off.
Speaker 1: I don't want your shoes already, rather your shoes than
Speaker 1: your socks on my floor.
Speaker 2: Well, I got news to you. When I walk into
Speaker 2: people's house, I take them off, okay, and and and
Speaker 2: I say who it was? But she says, you bringing
Speaker 2: you know, I guess maybe people do bring bring in
Speaker 2: whatever with with? She said, well, do you have something
Speaker 2: to cover the floor with? I said, and I didn't
Speaker 2: want to say I just took off my shoes, but
Speaker 2: I said, no problem. I went out and I got
Speaker 2: some of my drop clothes, right, which are marginally clean
Speaker 2: drop clothes, but their drop cloths. I come back. All
Speaker 2: the drop cloths are shoved to the side, and their
Speaker 2: brand new clean sheets on the floor. It's not it
Speaker 2: was beautiful. But now I'm going to start walking on her.
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, I walked on the here she did. I
Speaker 2: brought the whole crew in it. But now that being said,
Speaker 2: you know, there I am, you know, doing my best
Speaker 2: to respect their home and everything like that. And when
Speaker 2: I came back in, I saw the clan you know,
Speaker 2: all right, you know, yeah, you made your point, you know.
Speaker 2: So yeah, so sometimes you know, it's just a matter of,
Speaker 2: you know, what, how did I get into I'm not starstruck,
Speaker 2: but sometimes you get a you know, bring like.
Speaker 1: Okay, cool Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2: That's another thing, all right. I cannot know not Mario
Speaker 2: Lopez or when I get a kick out of you know,
Speaker 2: because now that I you know, I washed the Tash Show.
Speaker 1: I washed the shot it.
Speaker 2: But now that I watched the Tash Show, you love it.
Speaker 2: It's actually take in here.
Speaker 1: Please, I gotta ask a question, let me talk, Let
Speaker 1: me ask some questions. How did you come up with
Speaker 1: a deck? Doctor? H I'm surprised that wasn't taken.
Speaker 2: Doctor dek deck doctor. They both roll off the tongue.
Speaker 2: But everybody, everybody who's ever built the deck is a
Speaker 2: deck doctor, all right. Every contractor they ever know it
Speaker 2: always you know built, there's always decks on his resume,
Speaker 2: and a handful of them will call themselves, you know,
Speaker 2: Joe Schmoe contractor a ka deck doctor. So I've seen
Speaker 2: it over the years forever when I try to get
Speaker 2: deck dooctor dot com, deckdoctor dot com has been gone
Speaker 2: for thirty five years as some guy in Pennsylvania deckdoctor
Speaker 2: dot com. So I'm like, fuck it, I'm gonna become
Speaker 2: Malibu deck doctor. I don't have to leave the neighborhood.
Speaker 1: By the way. Uh, you know you've been doing that
Speaker 1: building these decks for thirty years, have you? You mess
Speaker 1: with porches at all? You fuck with porches or.
Speaker 2: No, you know what, anything outdoor man, anything that has
Speaker 2: to do. I just want to stay outdoors. You gotta
Speaker 2: pull pergola, you got a trellis, you got an arbor,
Speaker 2: you got anything you want to do outdoors. Pool deck,
Speaker 2: second story deck.
Speaker 1: We've got stoop. You mess with stoops.
Speaker 2: Stoops and normally you know, you associate them with concrete.
Speaker 2: So you know, if I had to, yeah, I've built
Speaker 2: wood decks over stoops.
Speaker 1: You know you deal with concrete at all or no.
Speaker 2: I mean when I have to. I'm doing a job
Speaker 2: down the block from you right now, where I got
Speaker 2: to pour concrete slab for a jacuzzi and you know,
Speaker 2: a little curb to hold a little bit of retaining
Speaker 2: walls hall City Hall like you you know what city
Speaker 2: Hall changes? You know a lot. I mean back from
Speaker 2: when I believe or not when you dealt with them
Speaker 2: several different inspectors even since then in the neighborhood, we
Speaker 2: got probably about five or six of them. My I'm
Speaker 2: lucky because a deck that's below thirty inches technically doesn't
Speaker 2: need a permit. Okay, So flip side of that is
Speaker 2: any job that I do over one thousand dollars, technically
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to permit. So you know, go figure.
Speaker 1: You ever been red tagged?
Speaker 2: No, I had been. I have been popped by an inspector.
Speaker 2: Let's come on my job and said, hey, you know
Speaker 2: you've been down to the city on this one, and
Speaker 2: I have to say no, I'll be down there tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Good news is that I build a code, so I've
Speaker 2: never had any problem. But yeah, of course, I've a
Speaker 2: side stepped the building department.
Speaker 1: Please walk me through the processed time frame and cost
Speaker 1: to build a moderately elaborate deck.
Speaker 2: Your deck is about one hundred and fifty grand whoa, By.
Speaker 1: The way, is my deck bigger smaller than Justin's.
Speaker 2: Justin claims to have the largest deck.
Speaker 1: He won't shut the fuck up about this. Look he
Speaker 1: keeps telling, let me tell you about go ahead, Justin.
Speaker 1: I don't know why. By the way, Justin has put
Speaker 1: a few people on this show. He introduced me to you,
Speaker 1: and he introduced me to Alligator Jesus. Anyway, Justin tells
Speaker 1: me he's this French guy that I can't interview him
Speaker 1: because he won't let me talk. Ever, He's basically like
Speaker 1: a shark tank guy. People ask him for money and
Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, I'll give you money. That's all I've
Speaker 1: ever figured out with him. But I'm at his house
Speaker 1: and I'm like, this deck is beautiful, and he says,
Speaker 1: you have got to meet doctor Deck. And I said,
Speaker 1: I'm like, your deck is beautiful. He goes, well, it's
Speaker 1: the largest deck in Malibu. I go, is it? I go,
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like the largest deck. My deck seems
Speaker 1: almost as big as this, and I would never even
Speaker 1: think to consider my deck as the largest deck. Now,
Speaker 1: go on and tell me if Justin's deck is the
Speaker 1: largest deck in Malibui.
Speaker 2: All right, look, I'm building a deck right now that's
Speaker 2: about almost four thousand in the square feet. So Justin's,
Speaker 2: I gotta admit, is a big deck, but it's broken
Speaker 2: up a little bit more to pain in the ass
Speaker 2: to work on. He spent god knows how much on
Speaker 2: that beautiful Brazilian hardwood deck and all you see is
Speaker 2: a billion screws in that thing. Forgive me, Justin.
Speaker 1: He didn't plug them, he didn't have plug, he didn't.
Speaker 2: Plug it, and uh, you know, I'd put my foot
Speaker 2: in my mouth. I go, Justin, I can don't worry.
Speaker 2: I'll come back. I'll do it for fifteen grant immediately, immediately,
Speaker 2: as soon as I no, no, no, what am I
Speaker 2: talking about. I can't afford to do that for Justin.
Speaker 2: I can't afford to do it for fifteen grand But
Speaker 2: I will come back and take care of it for you,
Speaker 2: I promise. So, yeah, as soon as I that subject
Speaker 2: came up, Yeah.
Speaker 1: I got to just a technical question break. Sometimes my
Speaker 1: plugs start to have our floating up. There's no way
Speaker 1: to tap those backs.
Speaker 2: Give it a shot. If they don't go back in,
Speaker 2: it's probably because, yes, all right, you want to get.
Speaker 4: Technically sometimes all right, this talk about this wood, this
Speaker 4: would well.
Speaker 2: This this looks this looks like just a piece of oak,
Speaker 2: simple red oak that's been created into a table shape.
Speaker 2: And but my point is that, uh, you look at
Speaker 2: this grain. Okay, the grain is heading in one direction. Technically,
Speaker 2: if I put my plug in with the grain in
Speaker 2: the same direction, yes, I shouldn't have a problem. Okay,
Speaker 2: but when you're putting in ten thousand plugs, you're just
Speaker 2: putting them in. So when the plug swells, technically it's
Speaker 2: not swelling with the wood itself, so it'll want to pop.
Speaker 2: You've got an interesting deck because your deck is like
Speaker 2: a thermally treated hardwood that has been chemically treated as
Speaker 2: well as heat treated. So it's it won't burn. I
Speaker 2: know that during those Really it's it's it's a very
Speaker 2: unique product. It's expensive.
Speaker 1: You misread it at first. At first you thought it
Speaker 1: was a red wood.
Speaker 2: No. At first I thought it was an epaid deck,
Speaker 2: and then I thought it was a a there's another
Speaker 2: product that's called Kebny that's a very similar product. But regardless, yes,
Speaker 2: you're right, it's sometimes these decks they throw me a
Speaker 2: little bit, mainly to the truth because of the color.
Speaker 2: When you see a color that's not naturally in nature
Speaker 2: or that a tree doesn't have, and you know, if
Speaker 2: you look at your deck, it's hard to describe that color.
Speaker 2: You can say, oh, it's mahogany, or it's oak, or
Speaker 2: it's it's a teak, or it's you know, brown. You know,
Speaker 2: it's like just this kind of it looks like, it
Speaker 2: looks very durable.
Speaker 1: It looks durable.
Speaker 2: That's the color.
Speaker 1: Give me a low end what somebody can spend on
Speaker 1: a deck and off the charts, what could they spend.
Speaker 2: Off the charts, off the charts honestly, right now, in
Speaker 2: the last couple of years, you know, I'm just finishing
Speaker 2: up one hundred and twenty thousand dollars deck that's about
Speaker 2: five let's just say, about the same size as your deck,
Speaker 2: but broken up into about five different decks on the property.
Speaker 2: That's about one hundred and thirty grand. That boils down
Speaker 2: to almost fifty grand in material right there. Our issue
Speaker 2: right now is fire coat, firefirefire Epay Brazilian hardwood. My
Speaker 2: specialty is the only I've been trying to get it
Speaker 2: mandated in Malibu for fifteen years as the only wood
Speaker 2: to be used for decks. But yes, they're coming up
Speaker 2: with some of these thermally treated products that are capable
Speaker 2: of handling the embers and things like that. But again,
Speaker 2: the Garapa that I'm using right now, in no way
Speaker 2: compares to an Epay deck. So all these other decks
Speaker 2: that are in the area when people want tone and
Speaker 2: color instead of just durability, well yeah, they're getting a
Speaker 2: class B, class C fire rating. These things will go
Speaker 2: up like tinder.
Speaker 1: So what did I do wrong to mind mine that
Speaker 1: you had to come in and fix? God, because I have.
Speaker 1: Everybody's getting all their socks dirty if they walked on it.
Speaker 1: There's oil come out of it constantly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, your deck doesn't require oil because again, oil is
Speaker 2: required to nurture the cellulose fibers in the wood. Okay,
Speaker 2: you've got something that the fibers are petrified. They've heated
Speaker 2: this wood. They've gotten to a point.
Speaker 1: Where why do they oil it? I didn't tell them.
Speaker 2: To no, But you know, the it's almost like, as
Speaker 2: a matter of fact, you know, deck's done, let's get
Speaker 2: some oil on it takes out some of the blemishes
Speaker 2: and then they don't even know what to put on
Speaker 2: top of the product. So yeah, so it sits on top.
Speaker 2: Oil attracts dirt, It doesn't really want to dry because
Speaker 2: it's oil. It doesn't really evaporate.
Speaker 4: You're telling me though the air this uh this marine
Speaker 4: marine layer. Yeah, that acid rain marine layer crappy. You know, look,
Speaker 4: we as wonderful as our neighborhood is, we do still have.
Speaker 2: Pollution in our area. And a deck is an outdoor
Speaker 2: floor that everyone beats the cowboy heck out of nobody.
Speaker 2: But nobody cleans their deck except a handful of customers
Speaker 2: that I'll go and swab the decks on a monthly
Speaker 2: basis just to keep them.
Speaker 1: How should you clean a deck?
Speaker 2: Basically, you gotta swab the deck with a little epsom
Speaker 2: salt and water. That's the worst case scenario. If you
Speaker 2: don't want to use a cleaner or brightener, just a
Speaker 2: little bit of salt and water because you don't want
Speaker 2: I don't like to use a lot of chemicals. I
Speaker 2: like everything that I use to break down into the
Speaker 2: environment as salts so epsom salt is like an old
Speaker 2: school method of scrubbing the deck with a little lep some salt,
Speaker 2: wash it down. It's dirt free. Oil is the only
Speaker 2: thing that nurtures wood. So yes occasionally raw wood, redwood, epay,
Speaker 2: any wood that's raw, it's gonna need a little bit
Speaker 2: of oil occasionally. In your case, you really don't. What
Speaker 2: you're just trying to do is waterproof it, to maintain
Speaker 2: the stability of the cellulose fibers in the wood.
Speaker 1: Rank these woods in terms of favorite when building a
Speaker 1: deck epay, Acacia, cedar, redwood, or hempher.
Speaker 2: You're talking about almost five different families of wood. They're
Speaker 2: all so distinctly different. So hemphur quickly framing lumber, that's
Speaker 2: a two by four. You're building your house with cedar,
Speaker 2: not normally associated with decks anymore because it is a
Speaker 2: little bit soft. So cedar you'll use it on siding,
Speaker 2: You'll use it a on fence post. Build fences, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I build fences. You know, you go for beauty sometimes
Speaker 2: and grain or ultimately I'm just building for default, just
Speaker 2: the badass wood that you know most likely is going
Speaker 2: to survive through most fires, not what we just recently
Speaker 2: add But.
Speaker 1: You work with landscapers when you're building your decks, I do. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that seems like those things go pretty we go hand hand.
Speaker 1: That's the one thing I regret. I didn't do the
Speaker 1: right lighting on my deck.
Speaker 2: Nobody does. Nobody does. And every time I do a deck,
Speaker 2: I always tell my customers let's think big. Let's think big,
Speaker 2: and then we can back off.
Speaker 1: Based on But I should I should have talked to you, Freddy,
Speaker 1: because I should have wired for lighting everywhere on my
Speaker 1: deck and I didn't.
Speaker 2: Now, you do have an opportunity with solar to do
Speaker 2: some nice stuff that you don't have to do a
Speaker 2: lot of hard wiring for. But the solar is so unpredictable.
Speaker 2: Light hard wiring, Yeah, it's a hard hardwired.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Lighting. Exterior lighting is.
Speaker 1: A way to washing. Should I be ever power washing
Speaker 1: my deck or should I stay away from it? I'm
Speaker 1: due to power.
Speaker 2: Wise your deck and buy another year from now.
Speaker 1: What's the hardest part of building a deck?
Speaker 2: It's really not a difficult thing. What's difficult for me
Speaker 2: is maintaining the highest quality control I can with guys
Speaker 2: that I hire.
Speaker 1: Now A lot of people that might look at California
Speaker 1: from Afar might just think these are day players from
Speaker 1: home Depot. But these guys really are are, you know,
Speaker 1: masters of their career.
Speaker 2: To be honest with you, you can get some quality
Speaker 2: at a home depot. Okay, all right, Now that being said,
Speaker 2: if you're a homeowner and you go to home depot,
Speaker 2: the first thing they're going to say is, okay, let
Speaker 2: me take.
Speaker 1: You can't do the accent.
Speaker 2: I can't do that.
Speaker 1: Jesus. You're going to.
Speaker 2: Say, okay, may I see the job and I will
Speaker 2: quote it for you after I see it, And You're like,
Speaker 2: you need to see the job. You can't tell me
Speaker 2: how much it's going to cost to work for three
Speaker 2: or four No, So what I'm saying is the whole
Speaker 2: negotiation thing has become part of the routine now. You know,
Speaker 2: even if I pull up believe me, I pull up
Speaker 2: a lot and I I see guys that I've known,
Speaker 2: they've been there for years. But the first thing that happens,
Speaker 2: they're all going to crowd my truck and then you know,
Speaker 2: I gotta do a hand pick one or two. But
Speaker 2: I'll always just say I weed them out of metals
Speaker 2: who speaks English.
Speaker 1: No, you can't say that because they they know that
Speaker 1: question they do. They just say, yes, we gotta have
Speaker 1: a trickier question.
Speaker 2: You're right, you're right, but that does break the ice.
Speaker 2: And usually the one there's usually a leader, as you know,
Speaker 2: there's one who will speak for everyone. That's the guy
Speaker 2: always say okay, And you have them work with tools,
Speaker 2: you know, and that's usually not important because I just
Speaker 2: need them to dig a hole or sand or something
Speaker 2: like that. But I'm trying to somehow vet these guys.
Speaker 1: For sure. It's like a dating guy.
Speaker 2: Exactly exactly, because you know, next thing you know, they're
Speaker 2: going to be in my truck with whatever colonne they're wearing.
Speaker 2: That's what I got to deal with. But that being said,
Speaker 2: all right, these guys alone, oh man, I'm wearing a
Speaker 2: little bit of money.
Speaker 1: You working on a deck of a house while a
Speaker 1: porn was being filmed? Yes, okay, First of all, are
Speaker 1: you sure you were not in that porn? Have you
Speaker 1: watched that porn? Like you're in the background, sand in
Speaker 1: or something like an extra?
Speaker 2: Look, I gotta be honest with you. I'm known as
Speaker 2: the hammer, but that's uh.
Speaker 1: Who calls you the hammer.
Speaker 2: Nobody calls me the hammer. The point that I'm trying
Speaker 2: to make is that yes, they actually were out on
Speaker 2: the deck and camera ndering out, not cameras, but.
Speaker 1: That's not a point. That's just people sex.
Speaker 2: No no, no, no no. They were definitely filming inside.
Speaker 2: But you know, the the the actors were coming out
Speaker 2: on the deck to have cigarettes. Yeah, and this was
Speaker 2: the section of the deck that I had completed and
Speaker 2: I'm on the other section. It was it was an
Speaker 2: interesting moment. Your guys loved you that Oh my guys
Speaker 2: loved me that day. And the funny thing with the
Speaker 2: greatest part of the day was that they asked they
Speaker 2: asked us if we needed anything.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: So it's like sometimes when client desks if you need
Speaker 2: anything normally you know, no, no, we're good.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: I tell my guys, you know, we don't go in houses,
Speaker 2: we don't use the bathroom.
Speaker 1: But where do you go to the bathroom when you're
Speaker 1: building these decks, then.
Speaker 2: That's kind of tough because a lot of times, you know, well,
Speaker 2: we'll take a break, you know, the guys have cards,
Speaker 2: will take a break for lunch, the guys will go
Speaker 2: but no, no, we got you know, occasionally got to
Speaker 2: sneak one off, you know, And I always tell you
Speaker 2: I didn't pee in your yard.
Speaker 1: That's fine, But I always tell people that they can
Speaker 1: use the airstream is unlocked and there's a bathroom in there,
Speaker 1: so I always tell people to go in there.
Speaker 2: I we don't never use the airstream.
Speaker 1: I tell you, I'd rather that than pee in my yard.
Speaker 2: You know what.
Speaker 1: And that kid comes around and then sees some big
Speaker 1: old hog. He's like, how come yours look so much
Speaker 1: bigger than my dad's. I don't want to have that conversation.
Speaker 1: People may be surprised. You know that you're forty five years.
Speaker 2: Old as of last week. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: How old are you, Freddy?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I'm sixty three. I will be sixty
Speaker 2: four years old.
Speaker 1: I'm sixty three, almost sixty four. By the way, you're physically,
Speaker 1: how are you doing physical? Are you still in pain? Where? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Where's the pain level?
Speaker 2: I I swear to you I am not in an
Speaker 2: ounce of pain right now. But apparently I've got degenerative discs,
Speaker 2: I've got osteo arthritis. I've got a bunch of stuff happening,
Speaker 2: like right in my core that keeps me in a
Speaker 2: bad quite a bit.
Speaker 1: But how often are you taking baths every day?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I probably spend at least two hours a day
Speaker 2: in a tub.
Speaker 1: What Yeah, two hours a day in the tour.
Speaker 2: In the morning. When I get up four point thirty
Speaker 2: in the morning, I am in the tub because it
Speaker 2: look I sleep with a vibrator.
Speaker 1: Okay, where.
Speaker 2: I sleep with a vibrator? Man, I am literally up
Speaker 2: three times a night, and I'm making this move because
Speaker 2: that's the area, okay, is in your back right on
Speaker 2: my lower back?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and I am literally I probably get
Speaker 2: two or three solid hours of sleep a night. Once
Speaker 2: I'm up and moving, I feel pretty good.
Speaker 1: What do you love most about living in southern California?
Speaker 2: Oh, there's no place I'd rather live than where I
Speaker 2: live right now. The best thing about it, it's easy
Speaker 2: to say, the weather. There's very few places I really
Speaker 2: enjoy going. We go to Mexico a lot.
Speaker 1: But your daughter wanted me to bring up the fact
Speaker 1: that you got busted in Mexico with her when she
Speaker 1: was a young child.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, all right, real quick, all right, take
Speaker 2: the kid to eastlam Moo Harris A right, tiny little
Speaker 2: island off of Cancoon All. They have his golf carts there,
Speaker 2: so you rent the golf cart and he cruise around
Speaker 2: the island. So I got my eight year old with me.
Speaker 2: I think she's eight nine years old. And to make
Speaker 2: a long story short, what better time to teach a
Speaker 2: kid how to drive?
Speaker 1: Sure driving a golf cart something? The same rules, Mexico whatever.
Speaker 2: Mexico roads are empty, throwing the driver's sea. She's doing
Speaker 2: a great job. You know where this cop came from.
Speaker 2: But woo, we get pulled over by is he in
Speaker 2: a golf No, he's in a He's in a pickup truck.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. I had no idea where he
Speaker 2: came from. Literally, I say, sweetheart, just keep driving, just
Speaker 2: you know, outrun him. No. I just thought maybe she'd
Speaker 2: pull it off, like, you know, just if she looked,
Speaker 2: you know, like.
Speaker 1: She meant like a nine year old exactly exactly.
Speaker 2: So he pulls in and he stays behind us, and
Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, just keep driving, keep driving right.
Speaker 2: So then he pulls up alongside of us and we're like,
Speaker 2: all right, we don't want him to ram us. I said,
Speaker 2: pull over over here. She pulls over shoots the tires exactly.
Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, he's getting serious. Pulls up, comes over right.
Speaker 2: So I'm trying to think quick. Immediately, I grab my
Speaker 2: leg and I put it up on the golf course.
Speaker 2: I've seen a hold of my leg.
Speaker 4: Or you're taking injury, taking an injury right, just man
Speaker 4: Spanish by the way.
Speaker 2: My Spanish sucks, but enough to have him guide us
Speaker 2: to a hospital. And I say guide us, I mean
Speaker 2: Sarah's still driving.
Speaker 1: Fake it all the.
Speaker 2: Way, we fake it all the way. I'm like, oh
Speaker 2: this is I'm like, okay, pull into a hospital. He
Speaker 2: literally pulls into the hospital. I get out. I limp
Speaker 2: into that plump, got a plate all the way through,
Speaker 2: a limp into the hospital. I'm sitting there. I'm in
Speaker 2: the waiting room and they're like, s senor, guess who program?
Speaker 2: What is the problem? What is your problem? You know?
Speaker 2: This was after about three or four.
Speaker 1: Times on the police left. Are they still?
Speaker 2: They're in the parking lot. So I'm sitting there going, okay,
Speaker 2: you know, do I check in?
Speaker 1: Do I?
Speaker 2: So I reached my pocket. I'm looking I I got
Speaker 2: about probably twenty five hundred aesos. It was a couple
Speaker 2: hundred bucks, give it to Sarahs and get out there.
Speaker 2: Just give it to the cop. Just go give it
Speaker 2: to him. Say thank you. My father's going to be fine.
Speaker 2: Thank you. You know, I said, hug him if you
Speaker 2: have to.
Speaker 1: She goes out, an eight year old go out there.
Speaker 2: With cash, shows that this is this is the way
Speaker 2: it's done. Literally watched him. I mean he took the
Speaker 2: money from her, like you know, there was no hey,
Speaker 2: had no qualms about it. Took the money, literally looked
Speaker 2: at it, flipped it over, put in his pocket, got
Speaker 2: on his pickup truck, drove away.
Speaker 1: And her.
Speaker 2: What's the problem, what's the problem, like, guys, Literally at
Speaker 2: that moment, she started walking back the door he left,
Speaker 2: made the right endo boom out of there, jump right
Speaker 2: back into the golf cart. Other direction?
Speaker 1: Did she driven? Okay, how exhausting is it having a
Speaker 1: kid that's involved in so many activities.
Speaker 2: I'd be a multi multi millionaire at this point had
Speaker 2: I not sacrificed all the time that I took with
Speaker 2: that kid. All right, so it's all say.
Speaker 1: Okay, your daughter's graduating soon too. She's a hockey product.
Speaker 2: Yea, yeah, we can't she's a hockey prodigty.
Speaker 1: That is probably the most expensive sport.
Speaker 2: Thank you. Like I said, there's so much stuff, would
Speaker 2: be a Malta Malta.
Speaker 1: I remember as a kid in Saint Louis, my dad
Speaker 1: loved the Blues, love the Saint Louis Blues so much,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I was like, should I get
Speaker 1: into hockey? Baby? And he's like, you don't want to.
Speaker 1: They basically said you don't want to get into hockey
Speaker 1: because they were because they knew how expensive it was,
Speaker 1: and they just didn't want me to play.
Speaker 2: Every sing I did with my kid from the age
Speaker 2: of two years old, they said, she's got to do it.
Speaker 2: I took her to I got pictures of her running
Speaker 2: five years old medals for running. I took her to
Speaker 2: swim class Lenny Krazelberg swim class. She was already completed
Speaker 2: the whole program by seven. I took her to the
Speaker 2: gymnastics place over and Agora Hills over there, right, the
Speaker 2: lady comes up through Russia. You must train your daughter
Speaker 2: with us every day. I'm like, what she's gonna be
Speaker 2: the Olympia. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, Literally everything
Speaker 2: that kid could touch she could do.
Speaker 1: Okay, So it's a hockey prodigy. She's not interested in
Speaker 1: playing college or beyond. Is that because nobody cares about
Speaker 1: hockey outside Canada and the Northeast.
Speaker 2: No, it's because obviously, what future does a woman have
Speaker 2: playing hockey? And even if it gets you into a school,
Speaker 2: the school is so determined to win that you're training
Speaker 2: on the ie, you spending two hours a day in class.
Speaker 2: My kid happens to also be a you know, a singer,
Speaker 2: and she's a.
Speaker 1: Singer, a capting of her debate team. That brings me
Speaker 1: to this. Go ahead, why doesn't she just not go
Speaker 1: to college and go straight to Disney on ice singing
Speaker 1: and ice skating? Boom, I solved all your problems.
Speaker 2: From your lips to God's ears.
Speaker 1: Everybody's on the show gets gifts. I just got to.
Speaker 1: I just find stuff around my house and I give
Speaker 1: it to you. You ever get splinters working on decks?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah. My wife has drawing salve and I'm like what
Speaker 1: she is, like, who uses drawings? She goes, oh, it's
Speaker 1: good for you for and I'm like, and it leaves
Speaker 1: this like black tar stuff on you. I'm like, I go,
Speaker 1: I don't ever, this is I've never heard of drawing
Speaker 1: salve until I met my wife, and then she's always
Speaker 1: got a tube of it. And I'm like, I'm not
Speaker 1: putting this stuff on our kids. I don't even notice.
Speaker 1: For anyway, I'm gonna give you some drawing salve. O. Hey,
Speaker 1: I will also give you all of her these because
Speaker 1: of your back, all of these hot packs and cold packs.
Speaker 1: I got a bunch of hot and cold packs for
Speaker 1: you to break open for your back. I need you.

Speaker 1: in your car. You pop one, you stick on your back.

Speaker 2: I can't.
Speaker 1: No, I have extra. Uh, I have extra doormats. I
Speaker 1: figure you, of all people, need some extra. These are
Speaker 1: brand new, never been used. These are good. I don't
Speaker 1: know what this. What is this? Chili witch? Send me
Speaker 1: more of these, Chiliwitch. I like these that you bring
Speaker 1: these to the next time you have some hoity toity. Uh, person,
Speaker 1: say I bring my own match to my gig. This
Speaker 1: is so you don't walk on people's deck. I don't
Speaker 1: know why I have these stilts, okay, but I think
Speaker 1: you need a pair of stills to walk around These
Speaker 1: are nice. They're they're retractable, so we'll get them to
Speaker 1: your height.
Speaker 2: I'm going to send you a photo of me on
Speaker 2: the deck. No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: That'd be nice. You give those away or do whatever
Speaker 1: you want.
Speaker 2: Definitely a functional gift. I think that nice. Functional well,
Speaker 2: you know, look, I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: The warranty on No, no, those things are from Amazon.
Speaker 1: They have to be quality. Eric, get these floor mets
Speaker 1: in the fort, the drawing soult on the floor.
Speaker 2: It's just like Christmas. There is more than I got,
Speaker 2: you know, well.
Speaker 1: But you're gonna love it. You got this good stuff here.
Speaker 1: You've been doing this line of work for over three decades.
Speaker 1: In that time, have you experienced deck building becoming increasingly complex?
Speaker 2: That is the most boring question, asked Breddy.
Speaker 1: I won't ask you you ever fuck with any of
Speaker 1: those composite materials or fastating a fuck?
Speaker 2: They need your customers.
Speaker 1: Have you ever had a second any of your customers?
Speaker 1: That's a good have you.
Speaker 2: You want to get into it a little bit?
Speaker 1: No, unless you want to tell me do I know
Speaker 1: them then my neighborhood. I built my wife's deck before
Speaker 1: she was your wife. No, that's not true.
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to find I have a couple of
Speaker 2: questions for you.
Speaker 1: Oh Jesus will take you ten hours to figure out
Speaker 1: how to use your own phone.
Speaker 2: Thank you. Yeah, I'm a little inept. No, no, continue,
Speaker 2: please continue with your line of questioning. Something I lose.
Speaker 1: My is Justin's the biggest deck in Malibu? Yes or
Speaker 1: no ah.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty convinced I'm building a larger deck than he
Speaker 2: has now. But I'll tell you what. Let's let him
Speaker 2: live with that, because you know he's he's got such
Speaker 2: little little in the life. He should.
Speaker 1: Make sure that stays in the show. That's too fun.
Speaker 2: Justin. I'm sorry, man, I love you, and forgive me
Speaker 2: for not recognizing you a Trancis Market. I kind of
Speaker 2: knew it was you. You're driving that Bronco, that retro.
Speaker 2: It's not.
Speaker 1: Blazer, he mocks me, because I have a retro bron
Speaker 1: You got.
Speaker 2: The retro Bronco.
Speaker 1: You know you think you can build a dock, of course,
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night. One night, in the
Speaker 1: middle of the night, I got to do it illegally.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I did in Malibu Lake. But uh uh,
Speaker 2: you know what, we can try and pull that off.
Speaker 2: Why not. Yeah, ship, I'll bring a crew over there.
Speaker 3: A crew.
Speaker 2: You got too many people going to keep that quiet?
Speaker 1: No, no, you gotta you gotta knock it out in
Speaker 1: the winter, in the middle of the night. You get
Speaker 1: a long night.
