Speaker 1: up to other stuff. He's listening. It's his role now,
Speaker 1: God bless him, but it's a It can give you

Speaker 1: like a lot of extra pounds these days. Didn't because
Speaker 1: we're having more pizza tomorrow. We don't eat pizza. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I can't get off of this. You don't have to
Speaker 1: eat the pizza scared. Oh you know, I'm gonna though,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I know with the Brooklyn boys have pizza. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I a an art of Choke pizza place open
Speaker 1: in Hoboken. Vodka. I have the vodka, by the way.
Speaker 1: Not a sponsor, by the way. I I d m
Speaker 1: the guys who owned Auto Choke because they're friends of us.
Speaker 1: And I said, you know, we talked about pizza all
Speaker 1: the time. You guys should be would be a great sponsor.
Speaker 1: I'm her back, yet you are. They franchise it out now,
Speaker 1: so up in a location in Manhattan. And so here's
Speaker 1: what and here's what they do. And I found this
Speaker 1: out because other places around the country do this when
Speaker 1: they franchise their products out. If you've got something that's awesome,
Speaker 1: you have a central essential commissary. They do this with
Speaker 1: fala falafel from mo Moons, where they force you into
Speaker 1: buying the actual like for instance, with the falafel place,
Speaker 1: you have to buy their falafel, their balls, of course,
Speaker 1: their sauce, their secret resci franchise. That's what franchise means.
Speaker 1: You got to know. But the thing you can't that
Speaker 1: means that gives them quality control, and all you gotta
Speaker 1: do is pretty much heat it up. And that's what
Speaker 1: they're doing with with with art Choke and Hoboken, because
Speaker 1: they have to get the special They get the sauce
Speaker 1: from a location, they get the crust come from. That's
Speaker 1: why it tastes just as good as the other locations.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna speak for it Choke, but most franchises,
Speaker 1: if they pre backage, like if they're getting like the
Speaker 1: buns and the burgers and everything that's like pizza dough
Speaker 1: should not come pre made, I'm saying usually, I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure that even that is done now if they shipped
Speaker 1: the dough and the flower, Like when I worked at
Speaker 1: Chuck E Cheese, a fine establishment back in the day,
Speaker 1: you would get Chucky Cheese flower and then every franchise
Speaker 1: you could buy like your own tomatoes. But you how
Speaker 1: to use their recipe, how to use the Chucky Cheese recipe.
Speaker 1: But the thing is, you can't trust them at the local.
Speaker 1: But no, no, there was a Chucky Cheese seasoning pack
Speaker 1: like of the regano and the salt pepper pre made.
Speaker 1: Nothing's left the chance, nothing even but even a Chucky
Speaker 1: Cheese convey about pizza, which, by the way, we've talked,
Speaker 1: we talked about we've talked about this well, conveyer belt pizza. Dude,
Speaker 1: if you go into a play, if you're a favorite place,
Speaker 1: god bless you if you like it. But if the
Speaker 1: best pizza place in your town puts the pizza in
Speaker 1: one end of an oven and it goes through on
Speaker 1: a conveyor belt it comes at the other end, it's
Speaker 1: not the best pizza. It's not. No, it's not, And
Speaker 1: it's okay when you hungover in a world of some world,
Speaker 1: in a world of so many choices, unless you don't
Speaker 1: have a lot of choices. Well here in our area
Speaker 1: we do, so there's no excuses. I just can't believe
Speaker 1: what I see every day. And I'm not gonna I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna out any specific place, but I'm like, really,
Speaker 1: I'm like, we got five the best pizza places within
Speaker 1: any of these places we're thinking of could end up
Speaker 1: as a sponsors. But guy, I'm always surprised living in
Speaker 1: Jersey now, Like in North Jersey area, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of Italians who know good pizza. I'm not saying Irish
Speaker 1: don't know pizza pizza, but like do better but like
Speaker 1: I I know a guy. Uh, he's a friend of
Speaker 1: a friend. So he's not like my friend because I
Speaker 1: could never be his friend. But he's a friend of
Speaker 1: a friend. He's a Talian guy, and uh, he'll go. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I like ordering from that place, the conveyor belt franchise place, Like,
Speaker 1: why would you do that when such and such is
Speaker 1: right there? Yeah? I like it. It comes to bread sticks.
Speaker 1: It like the salad. I know, you don't want to
Speaker 1: be Okay, you don't know what the pizza to get breadsticks? Right?
Speaker 1: You don't go to a steakhouse because you like the
Speaker 1: sliced tomatoes. Necessarily you go for the steak, right, you know? Oh,
Speaker 1: I like I go there at fish place because the
Speaker 1: tatto sauce is really good. No, you go for the good.
Speaker 1: If the tatto sauce is good, that's great, But if
Speaker 1: the fish sucks, who goes there? I go for the breadsticks.
Speaker 1: You don't go to the pizza place for bread sticks, Okay,
Speaker 1: so that shouldn't be why you choose your pizza. You know.
Speaker 1: The other thing is, you know, people sometimes will tweet
Speaker 1: me for food advice. I'm coming to the city. Oh,
Speaker 1: I have a feeling I know where you're going with
Speaker 1: this because I was writing about this to Ganda and
Speaker 1: they're like, so I'm gonna be in there? We could
Speaker 1: December twelfth. Yeah, where should I eat? Where should I go?
Speaker 1: Wh should I eat? But I'm sitting there like, are
Speaker 1: you fucking kidding me? There a two thousand restaurants in
Speaker 1: Manhattan alone. Yeah, no, you know what? Give me parameters? Right?
Speaker 1: What's your price point? What are you gonna be? Are
Speaker 1: you going on a Saturday night? What time of day?
Speaker 1: What you pick a cuisine narrowed down? Give me a
Speaker 1: short of vocation of where you're gonna be in Manhattan
Speaker 1: is huge. And when you say you're coming to New York?
Speaker 1: Are you going to Brooklyn? Are you going to Queens?
Speaker 1: I will glad are you going? I will gladly give you.
Speaker 1: But but zone. We had a text message that came
Speaker 1: in Wait, a text message came in late last week. Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm going to Florida. What should I do? Florida? Florida
Speaker 1: it's a giant long state. Like are you going to Orlando?
Speaker 1: You're going to Tampa, You're going to Tallahassee? Where are
Speaker 1: you going? Are you gonna go to see? S The
Speaker 1: key even if you're like someone said to me, where
Speaker 1: should I go for palm in New York? Again, I
Speaker 1: don't know where you go and what your price point is?
Speaker 1: Are you going alone? Listen? You know I love cam
Speaker 1: mines with their family style, which means you spend twenty
Speaker 1: four dollars for a chicken palm, but it feeds four.
Speaker 1: You can go by yourself, you cannot walk. I did, well,
Speaker 1: then you take home right, But but you like you
Speaker 1: gotta go with three, four or five people so you
Speaker 1: can all share like four platters. So I got to
Speaker 1: know the parameters. That's the way he haul to help you.
Speaker 1: So there's another this this is kind of embarrassing. So
Speaker 1: somebody said into my d M s and said, look,
Speaker 1: I'm visiting my son. My son lives in Jersey City,
Speaker 1: just moved to Jersey City, right outside Manhattan. So he's
Speaker 1: saying that we're going to go to this place. Blah
Speaker 1: blah blah. Now I'm saying, is that good? Is there?
Speaker 1: Is there? Better write it down on a piece of paper. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me see where. So there's not Keep in mind,
Speaker 1: it's a mother asking me right about the sun because
Speaker 1: the sun's bringing them there. Okay, son just went to
Speaker 1: Jersey City, and she knows that I live in Jersey City.
Speaker 1: So she's slewed into my d M s and said,
Speaker 1: hey see this place right? Oh oh no, right, I've heard.
Speaker 1: So so here's my question. I'm gonna I'm gonna look
Speaker 1: that place up on YELP real quick, hold on, it'll
Speaker 1: it gets okay remarks, but it's not. Listen, it's it's
Speaker 1: it's okay, but it's not. It's not. There's about ten.
Speaker 1: So I wrote back to her, I'm like, I don't
Speaker 1: want to insult your son because like it's a mother
Speaker 1: and son, and I don't want the son to be
Speaker 1: pissed at me. So I said, look, I said, if
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, I say, and you know me,
Speaker 1: I'm the foodie and you came to me for a reason.
Speaker 1: But your son seems to have his heart set on this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I said, it's okay. I mean, if he doesn't love you,
Speaker 1: it's fine. It's pub grub. You guys have a strained relationship.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you like, if you like food that's
Speaker 1: boiled in a bag and just they cut it with
Speaker 1: his scissor and they PLoP it onto the plate. Then
Speaker 1: you're good, but it's not like if you're like a
Speaker 1: place that gives your limited bread sticks. This is the place.
Speaker 1: It's not a chain, by the way, But so I said,
Speaker 1: I said, here's what I said. She was, oh, she was,
Speaker 1: so they are better places. She goes, give me your suggestions,
Speaker 1: and I legitimately listed twelve and I emailed it back
Speaker 1: to her. She was, oh, my god, she was, all
Speaker 1: these places are better than yeah, and I said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I said, a lot better. She's, well, you know, good food.
Speaker 1: She goes. You know what she was, I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take this list. I'm gonna give it to him,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tell him to pick one of the
Speaker 1: restaurants that you suggested. Scary, now, I feel like a
Speaker 1: dick because the kid is gonna be like, this could
Speaker 1: be his favorite place, it could be fair anything. He
Speaker 1: could maybe have been waiting for like months to take
Speaker 1: his parents. But he wasn't waiting months for a reservation
Speaker 1: at that place. No, he was. No. In fact, it's
Speaker 1: one of the places that I'm sure that they stand
Speaker 1: out on the sidewalk with a menu and usher you in,
Speaker 1: say we got specials here. So I feel like I
Speaker 1: really feel like I did a bad thing because I
Speaker 1: came between a mother and a son. Because then the
Speaker 1: mother and the mother is gonna be like, this is
Speaker 1: what you're think of me. You're taking me right to
Speaker 1: this place. Scary Yeah, scary, Jones said. Trash scary said,
Speaker 1: these twelve places are better, right, I mean, if you
Speaker 1: want to eat out of a paper container, God bless you.
Speaker 1: So I said, I said, I said to the mother,
Speaker 1: I said, I'm so sorry. I'm like, I said, I
Speaker 1: don't mean to intervene. I said, but you did ask
Speaker 1: my opinion, right, and I gotta be honest, that was
Speaker 1: my opinion. Right. So now they're gonna try one of
Speaker 1: the twelve restaurants on my list. The kids. The price
Speaker 1: is the price point the same of you your restaurants
Speaker 1: in that place. Some of them are I feel like not,
Speaker 1: I feel like you're recommending more more dollars signs on Yelp.
Speaker 1: She wants, she wanted the best. That's what that's two
Speaker 1: dollar signs, yeah too. Yeah. Maybe I had a couple
Speaker 1: of three dollar signed places for her that maybe one
Speaker 1: four Yeah, yeah, I don't spend. If you're coming to
Speaker 1: Jersey City, I want to show you the best of
Speaker 1: Jersey City. I know, I know, but listen, she asked, Okay,
Speaker 1: but I didn't you just said you're a foodie. Can
Speaker 1: I can I address something happened at at a holiday party?
Speaker 1: Ms the foodie, because when I think about this, maybe
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be recommending anything to this woman. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: paint the picture so like, forty of us went to
Speaker 1: lunch and by the way, we it was snowflake alert
Speaker 1: with snowflake alert with the picture. We'll get to that
Speaker 1: in a minute. I'm gonna start at the end. We
Speaker 1: had a lot of food. Went to an Italian restaurant
Speaker 1: in the Greenwage. I'm sorry, little literally sat town called

Speaker 1: places looked back in the day. Great guys run the places.
Speaker 1: Derek and his a cousin. All right, I forgive me
Speaker 1: Derek's cousin, I can't remember your name, but both great guys. Anyway,
Speaker 1: After we eat, Derek says, oh, you're not gonna have
Speaker 1: a dessert, and so we're like, oh stuffed, can't I
Speaker 1: can't even. We gotta tie and cheesecake here, you gotta
Speaker 1: have a piece. So Scary goes all tie and cheesecake
Speaker 1: because you love it. China cheese. Who doesn't love it?
Speaker 1: Time and cheesecake. It's fluffy, it's well somehow, Well, hold
Speaker 1: on a second, if I may interrupt for a second,
Speaker 1: I would never dump to putting on their coats right
Speaker 1: and getting up, and I'm like, okay, yes, we're not
Speaker 1: staying for dessert. I usually this is the part of
Speaker 1: the meal where I order a double espresso with some

Speaker 1: in his shirt and a fork and a knife in
Speaker 1: his hands like a five year old waiting for Stabettos
Speaker 1: who led the charge to put on the jacket, because everyone,
Speaker 1: this is something that you do sometimes when you just like,
Speaker 1: is it time to go? Can we go? Who's gonna
Speaker 1: make the first move? And someone does the coat reach
Speaker 1: with the chair or the chair shuffle they like shuffle
Speaker 1: their feet and they pull the chair out in here,
Speaker 1: but the chairs coming up as soon as she's get
Speaker 1: one of those, like seventeen people, well we'll bring on
Speaker 1: put on their coats, all get up at the same time,
Speaker 1: which leads me to believe everyone was in the fucking
Speaker 1: rush to get out of there. I don't know what
Speaker 1: was going on. By the way, there were two spouses there,
Speaker 1: and I think it was like the spouses wanting to leave.
Speaker 1: Whatever it was, it wasn't me because I'm ready for
Speaker 1: some sample of the forty people. Thirty eight well up,
Speaker 1: Scary was down and one or two people were standing
Speaker 1: around Scary. So Derek brings over the cheesecake, which, by
Speaker 1: the way, I did not order, so where it came from.
Speaker 1: You have a reputation. The cheesecake fell out of the sky. Nobody,
Speaker 1: by the way, they would have broken. The table was
Speaker 1: a massive was given the menu. No one ordered dessert.
Speaker 1: I was to get up with everybody. So I'm standing up.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I guess we're leaving, so I put my
Speaker 1: coat on. And then then Derek came from boom, big
Speaker 1: cheesecake right in front of Scary. But it wasn't just
Speaker 1: a cheesecake. It wasn't an American cheesecake, which is made
Speaker 1: of cream cheese cheesecake, right that is. I hate cheesecake,
Speaker 1: but tag and cheesecake and my favorite. I love all cheese.
Speaker 1: Gotta taste of like a tinge of vanilla in it. Okay,
Speaker 1: so good. So Scary starts. He's forking it down pretty
Speaker 1: fast and he gotta have some, and it's falling out
Speaker 1: of his mouth. He's like onto the table. There's chunks,
Speaker 1: like there was a food fight. But it was also
Speaker 1: given some to other people. I'm like, I can't eat
Speaker 1: this by myself. And by the way, now fifteen and
Speaker 1: the forty people are already out the door, right and
Speaker 1: now like I got tal and cheesecake starts come back.
Speaker 1: And now it's on his shirt. So he says to me, Brod,
Speaker 1: he gotta have to cheesecake and cheese. So I said, well,
Speaker 1: I just wanted a forkful on my way out there.
Speaker 1: Now we've established Scary like people like to drink alone,
Speaker 1: Scary likes to share his food. He wants everyone indulging
Speaker 1: in the food. Yeah, I don't just want you gotta
Speaker 1: try this. You gotta trying to make no mistake about it.
Speaker 1: I share my food, right, I love it. By the way,
Speaker 1: Scary got stymming at the beginning of the meal because
Speaker 1: the menus come out and the first page had like
Speaker 1: thirty five different appetizers to choose from. And you know, Scary,
Speaker 1: we've established this. I'm gonna appetizes for the table. Give me,
Speaker 1: give me three of everything over here. Whatever. Before I
Speaker 1: go Scary appetizing for the table, he goes, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: it gives me the wink because we were sitting diagonally
Speaker 1: from each other. Before he can start placing an order,
Speaker 1: the staff comes out with pre ordered, predecided appetizers to
Speaker 1: put on the table. Scary's face dropped like his day
Speaker 1: was ruined. Like I was I was gonna be in charge.
Speaker 1: I was gonna tell you what though. Yeah, whoever did
Speaker 1: the order, they did right. They did the right thing.
Speaker 1: They ordered bike clams, bike clams, cold seafood sound. That
Speaker 1: is my favorite. You know what. I gotta say, that's
Speaker 1: the stuff I wouldn't want anyway. So I was okay, right,
Speaker 1: But when he first saw the way it is coming out,
Speaker 1: you want to wait, whoa, whoa, what what do you
Speaker 1: do too much? I don't want people to order for me.
Speaker 1: And then they had that that cannellini pasta with it
Speaker 1: got in the seasing it. But anyway, that's story, okay.
Speaker 1: And what were those little cheese puffs? They make their
Speaker 1: like little raviolis, but they were over triple stuffed amazing.
Speaker 1: This by the way, there was spinach in there, and
Speaker 1: you ate it. I picked it out, by the way,
Speaker 1: I cut them in half and scraped away the pot
Speaker 1: without the green What do you think I didn't look?
Speaker 1: Do you think I eat a pocket or anything without
Speaker 1: looking inside? Do you think I eat a dumpling but
Speaker 1: I open it up? Come on to the audience. I
Speaker 1: really thought they I really thought that they put one
Speaker 1: past Brody because he said it was the best thing
Speaker 1: of his life, the best thing he's ever eaten, and
Speaker 1: and and I'm sitting here and thinking like why can't
Speaker 1: we for the podcast? I'm gonna tell him there was spinach. No,
Speaker 1: you know what, you can ask Froggy. He saw me
Speaker 1: picking it out. You picked up the spin It was
Speaker 1: good otherwise anyway. So I said, the cheesecake ches gonna
Speaker 1: cheesecake delicious. So I said, all right, I don't have
Speaker 1: a fork because at this point the table is trashed,
Speaker 1: everybody's eating already. It wasn't like they came around with like, oh,
Speaker 1: here's your dessert fork and dessert spoon, because there was
Speaker 1: no time. They were like you're leaving. He has a cheesecake, okay.
Speaker 1: So scary see is there's an unused fork next to him,
Speaker 1: because you know, you get a big fork, a salad fork.
Speaker 1: You got a couple of forks, and they give you
Speaker 1: a little little big clam fork, a little like little
Speaker 1: poseidon fork right looks like a like a pitchfork. For
Speaker 1: so he gives me. I guess it was a salad
Speaker 1: fork that was clean, and he hands it to me,
Speaker 1: but he grabs it with his fist and he grabs
Speaker 1: The time's part, the fork part, the part you put
Speaker 1: in your mouth and hands it to me, handled first,
Speaker 1: and I went, I'm good, scary. He said, what you
Speaker 1: needed a fork? I said, I wanted a clean fork,
Speaker 1: no offense. But you just fisted my fork. But it
Speaker 1: sounds really dirty. Since when do you care about cleanliness?
Speaker 1: Since when do you care about germs? Since when do
Speaker 1: you care about what am my animal? Think about it
Speaker 1: for a second. You do filthier things and put filthier
Speaker 1: things in your mouth that have touched filthy things things.
Speaker 1: I don't put pencaps in my mouth like you do.
Speaker 1: I don't put pencaps in my mouth. But you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You don't like what you don't think.
Speaker 1: Everything is ski box. You don't think. I don't mind
Speaker 1: hand jamming and cereal exactly. Hold on because you're grabbing,
Speaker 1: and you're grabbing, you're just taking the cereal out. You're
Speaker 1: not putting your hand and rubbing the cereal. But no, no,
Speaker 1: but when you when you put your hand in a
Speaker 1: cereal box, you go hand ford for split second. That
Speaker 1: means your your fingers touch your mouth. Then you go back.
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't know, I don't double hand jam.
Speaker 1: You go back into the No, I never go back
Speaker 1: in the box. You're surlive it gets on the cereal. Nope,
Speaker 1: I don't go back in the box. You don't double hand.
Speaker 1: You know that's disgusting. Alright. Also, you're sweaty meat hooks
Speaker 1: after a meal, we're grabbing the fork. You're like, oh god, okay.
Speaker 1: So I was like scared, what are you doing? I'm
Speaker 1: so embarrassed. I'm so embarrassed. I apologized. You acted like
Speaker 1: I'm surprised. You were surprised, like you had never done
Speaker 1: it before. Brain fought sorry about that. It was that time,
Speaker 1: there was like, no big deal. That was Monday. Tuesday,
Speaker 1: Nitro ice cream comes up. What were the name of
Speaker 1: those guys? Nitro Girl? Nitro Girl not a sponsor. They
Speaker 1: come out from. By the way, scary goes to coincidence.
Speaker 1: I had this conversation with Mario from a comedy department.
Speaker 1: I was talking about They were talking about Elana's mar
Speaker 1: set his new Broadway show Jagged Little Pill, which the
Speaker 1: reviews are fantastic, and they were saying about, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure she does ironic. I said, you know, half
Speaker 1: the ship in that song is just shitty. It's not ironic.
Speaker 1: And I and I said that to Elvis a couple
Speaker 1: of days ago. We're talking about the jagged little pill,
Speaker 1: and he had never heard of say that before. I said,
Speaker 1: rain on your wedding day. That's just shitty. That's not
Speaker 1: ironic anyway. So Fork and river right spelled fork coincidence.
Speaker 1: Scary's out there all broading. Oh, he always gets there
Speaker 1: first because he runs for the food. And he's like, oh,
Speaker 1: what they did was at this place, Nitro girl, they
Speaker 1: put cereal into ice cream at they home, make the
Speaker 1: ice cream right, and then they freeze it so the
Speaker 1: cereal stays hard in the ice cream. Outrageous. So Scary like,
Speaker 1: oh the shot they put alcohol in some of it, right,
Speaker 1: that was really good. So I said, oh, I don't
Speaker 1: see any spoons. Scary says, oh, here's a spoon, Brody,
Speaker 1: And he didn't do it delivered to be funny. He
Speaker 1: grabbed the spoon by the scoopy pot and handed me
Speaker 1: the handle again, and I got scared. What are you
Speaker 1: doing two days in a row. You said, you've told
Speaker 1: my mother on this podcast that I eat like an animal,
Speaker 1: which I do not. You have no manners, and you
Speaker 1: hand people handle first, handle first. That's that's new level ship. Dude,
Speaker 1: you can't you look you do it once brain fart
Speaker 1: twice sober. What's up with that? Yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: what it is. I think I'm overworked. Haven't you seen
Speaker 1: what I've been doing lately? Yeah, you've missed eight hours.
Speaker 1: You missed every day. You have been filling in and
Speaker 1: doing the job of former member of our show, Greg T.
Speaker 1: I have been Greg to use the schedule the best
Speaker 1: of So we go on vacation. We've talked about this.
Speaker 1: Let's pull the curtain back, Brody, Let's tell him what
Speaker 1: goes on here. In order to doing days, Fri too
Speaker 1: was taking a two week break, So the three weeks
Speaker 1: leading up to us going away for two weeks for
Speaker 1: the holidays, we have to edit, plot out and plan
Speaker 1: so it fits in a four hour format. To go
Speaker 1: out in a in a in a in a predetermined
Speaker 1: set schedule where commercial breaks and and traffic and weather
Speaker 1: reports and promos radio shows, We'll just say fuck it
Speaker 1: and just run an entire day like we're gonna take
Speaker 1: and it's gonna run the whole show. They don't even
Speaker 1: edit it. We don't do They're like, oh, Mike's gonna
Speaker 1: be at a comedy club tonight, Mike was just six
Speaker 1: months ago. But they didn't edit it. No, we don't
Speaker 1: do that. In this show. We edit, we take out
Speaker 1: timely references. That makes sense, plane like, oh that was
Speaker 1: those eight minutes were funny. Let's make that the best, right.
Speaker 1: So back in the day, producers, Sam will take the
Speaker 1: twenty minute conversation on the radio, make it like eleven
Speaker 1: or twelve minutes so it's streamlined and all quality. And
Speaker 1: then back in the day, Greg T the frat book
Speaker 1: by or Greg T or Carolina with Gregg Tea now
Speaker 1: as it is, Uh, greg T would sit in the back,
Speaker 1: go through this giant book of of all the things
Speaker 1: we've done and what time we did it, because if
Speaker 1: it ran at six forty on our show, we'll running
Speaker 1: today twenty different audience. Usually he plodded it out neatly,
Speaker 1: but he and Scary would yell. He would go, Scary,
Speaker 1: you know, eleven minute bit for this segment, and Scary
Speaker 1: give him choices and great, no, it's no guard. We
Speaker 1: already talked about relationships. I need a different but it
Speaker 1: worked out. They would fight like like Ernie and Bert
Speaker 1: we call them from Sesame Street. They would just fight.
Speaker 1: It was great. Always worked out great, well well great.
Speaker 1: And by the way, that was Greg T's job, mainly
Speaker 1: air that he was when he was sitting there at
Speaker 1: his desk, when he wasn't doing fantasy football on Tuesdays
Speaker 1: for his way of time, he wasn't on the air,
Speaker 1: he was back there and he was getting these shows
Speaker 1: ready right. Well, now he doesn't exist anymore on the
Speaker 1: show by our show, and so b Boom scary used
Speaker 1: to do it with him. Now you do it by yourself.
Speaker 1: And now I'm like dying here because I'm spending four
Speaker 1: or five hours a day after the shows for in fact,
Speaker 1: when this podcast is over already we started, this started,
Speaker 1: we started three hours late. It's a quarter after three

Speaker 1: I want to get to It's holiday time and by
Speaker 1: the time you're hearing this right now, I don't know
Speaker 1: if it's gonna be too late. Hopefully, I don't think
Speaker 1: it won't be. I don't think it will be because
Speaker 1: it's still before Christmas and before the holidays. But you know,
Speaker 1: you can get someone special something in you, someone special
Speaker 1: in your life, a special something that they might take
Speaker 1: for granted. Yeah, we're talking about scrubs, big scrubs, big
Speaker 1: scrubs from the tree that yeah, or you're like your
Speaker 1: great grandfather used to have one and used to pick
Speaker 1: the figs off. We're talking about an actual company that
Speaker 1: has made where ring hospital scrubs and doctor scrubs cool.
Speaker 1: I mean it's for everybody. So first of all, for
Speaker 1: the person in the medical field, check get you know
Speaker 1: that that's like a no brainer. Give them figs scrubs
Speaker 1: for the holidays. And if they're used to wearing those
Speaker 1: green with the string and they're not form fitting, they
Speaker 1: fall down all the time, the elastic breaks. These are
Speaker 1: high quality, uh designer fashionable scrubs and and and they're
Speaker 1: not just for nurses, doctors, dentists, and healthcare people anymore.
Speaker 1: Think of them as just comfy every day person. I
Speaker 1: warm last weekend just laying around the house. I put
Speaker 1: on my scrub pants with the pockets. Were your Netflix
Speaker 1: and chilling. I was Disney Plus and chilling Demandalorians fantastic,
Speaker 1: by the way. Uh And I was wearing the scrub
Speaker 1: bottoms one day over the weekend, and I slept in
Speaker 1: the scrubs top, which, by the way, you can wear out.
Speaker 1: You can just go out what I what I like about,
Speaker 1: especially because you know I get food on me when
Speaker 1: I eat. We both do. It's anti microbial, so it
Speaker 1: protects you from germs and bacteria. It's really soft, it's
Speaker 1: moisture wicking, so if it's not gonna get you all
Speaker 1: like hot and sweaty. Look, medical professionals work fifteen eighteen
Speaker 1: hour days. Sometimes you want something that's comfortable, lets you breathe.
Speaker 1: FIG scrubs and you know what's what's awesome is they
Speaker 1: are a company who cares. They give back. Uh. Figs
Speaker 1: give scrubs to health providers in need around the world

Speaker 1: they have this threads for threads initiative. And that is

Speaker 1: if I want a gift for my wife, all my girlfriend,
Speaker 1: I'll go there. What else you got dred yards? Okay?
Speaker 1: So do you know what um when you project stats
Speaker 1: in any math, right, if you like, if that guy
Speaker 1: gains ten pounds every week, you're gonna go you know what,
Speaker 1: it's probably gonna gain sixty pounds in six months. So
Speaker 1: in sports, they'll go at the at the at the
Speaker 1: halfway point, they'll say, he's got thirty home runs, he's
Speaker 1: on pace for sixty because if you double how many
Speaker 1: games he's played, it's sixty. Right on pace means mathematically,
Speaker 1: based on what he's done so far, this is what
Speaker 1: he's going to get. That's it math. Listen to what
Speaker 1: this guy says. This is a guy that was on
Speaker 1: pace for what hundred receiving yards maybe more, maybe more.
Speaker 1: You're on pace for fourteen hundred. You can't be on
Speaker 1: pace for fourteen hundred maybe more. You can if if
Speaker 1: you accelerate. What if next week he throws more, but
Speaker 1: then the pace then the pace changes, the pace changes, right,
Speaker 1: But he's he's he's saying next week he he's going
Speaker 1: to improve his performance even more, that maybe he'll be
Speaker 1: on pace for even more. He's saying currently, he said, currently,
Speaker 1: currently he's on pace for fourteen hundred yards or more.
Speaker 1: You can't say or more. What are you smoking? I'm
Speaker 1: not smoke anything. These people three strikes on this one.
Speaker 1: No no one, no no. Usually I'm with you on
Speaker 1: the grammar ship. You know that you know him right
Speaker 1: on the right there with this is you can't say
Speaker 1: you're being nit plus you say pace once, you say pace,
Speaker 1: the guy's on pace, And give me this again. I
Speaker 1: don't believe this was on pace for what four hundred
Speaker 1: receiving yards maybe more? You can't be this guy is
Speaker 1: the guy who was on pace for fourteen hundred yards
Speaker 1: or maybe more. No, he was on pace. There's a
Speaker 1: pace there. Or he could be unsure of how many
Speaker 1: yards he was on pace for. So he's covering his ass.
Speaker 1: Was on pace for what four hundred receiving yards maybe more?
Speaker 1: Maybe Okay, So let me interpret it that with maybe
Speaker 1: he didn't have his statue in front of him. He's
Speaker 1: like in his head, he's thinking like maybe he was
Speaker 1: on page for like one thousand, four hundred fifty yards
Speaker 1: um but I just had the word fourteen hundreds, so
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say maybe more to cover myself. I don't
Speaker 1: like to hear defending people don't like it at all.
Speaker 1: But I don't like that. This is why the Beatles
Speaker 1: broke up, just being logic because now listen with that
Speaker 1: ear was on pace for what fourteen hundred receiving yards
Speaker 1: maybe more. He he obviously didn't have handle a handle
Speaker 1: of the facts. He didn't know the English language, he
Speaker 1: didn't know no nothing, nothing in front of him buying it.
Speaker 1: He didn't have the answers in front of him. So
Speaker 1: he's covering himself, not liking it. Got one more clip there,
Speaker 1: that's all. I got a son of a bitch that
Speaker 1: really that's it? Yeah, oh oh yeah, there's this one.

Speaker 1: can't even find it because they didn't label it anything.
Speaker 1: But they put the cut number in the email search
Speaker 1: by cut number. These guys unprofessional. In the Tales of Cocktails,
Speaker 1: we love them, but when it comes to they should
Speaker 1: have just named it the vadge game. What are they
Speaker 1: afraid to write the vadge game? And it's vague, it's
Speaker 1: VG like, what's the big deal? I did you find it?
Speaker 1: You look by cut number? I'm sure, yeah, but in
Speaker 1: what category? All of them? It should be under bits
Speaker 1: t O c oh No, they coded it. They they
Speaker 1: named it t OC clip for Brooklyn Boys. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: so just to reminder, just reminder the vadge game, I said,
Speaker 1: I heard I heard this story that that at bachelorette
Speaker 1: parties and at bridle showers, some women play the vage
Speaker 1: game with a compare the width of the opening of
Speaker 1: the orifice right, and then at the at the baby shower,
Speaker 1: they recompare the numbers and they see who has the
Speaker 1: least difference, and you win prizes. They hand up prizes.
Speaker 1: I don't go to these things and so scarce like,
Speaker 1: I don't. I've never heard of this thing. No, never
Speaker 1: heard of it. It's crazy and you're talking about And
Speaker 1: then we had Diamond from our show called a friend
Speaker 1: of hers live on the podcast and said, hey, friend,
Speaker 1: female friend, have you ever been a bachelor party? Would
Speaker 1: pay the badge games? Like? Absolutely been a couple? And
Speaker 1: Scarce like I didn't know. So the guy's over tales
Speaker 1: of the cocktails, Astro, Wendy, Daniel de Lulo and West
Speaker 1: by the way coming up West ranting about you. I
Speaker 1: have a rant and it's it's about us. Love you. Though.
Speaker 1: These guys heard us talking about the vadge game and
Speaker 1: they said, oh, you know what, I'm on the podcast
Speaker 1: with three women. I'm going to bring it up as
Speaker 1: a topic. I alright, Well, once you do it, send
Speaker 1: us the clip. How long is the clip? Three minutes?
Speaker 1: We have not heard this? If not, that's the truth.
Speaker 1: This isn't like a radio thing. But I mean, I think,
Speaker 1: how is this? How is this gonna be funnier? Well?
Speaker 1: I will play the clips the clip? Yeah, yea that
Speaker 1: I think of your comedy. Yes, okay, I want the
Speaker 1: orders to hear them talking about it. Okay, play the clip.
Speaker 1: All right, let's let's play the clip. Clip. The first
Speaker 1: brought this out already. Okay, alright, we're playing the clip.
Speaker 1: Our friends the Brooklyn Boys, I guess we were talking
Speaker 1: about in their episode one oh five I believe it was.
Speaker 1: And how I guess some people played a badge game.
Speaker 1: I guess it's a bunch of females at a party
Speaker 1: or something like that. Apparently they play this thing called
Speaker 1: the badge game, which I've been to so many baby
Speaker 1: and bridle showers. I like this. I've never even seen
Speaker 1: any of my friends badges. Okay, so I heard it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know of them? It's two guys on
Speaker 1: a podcast talking about it. I heard it. I was like,
Speaker 1: you know what, we should talk about it here? It's
Speaker 1: one guy. We couldn't really find anything about it. But
Speaker 1: the only thing I did find there was, um, you
Speaker 1: can name it. They have the yes party vage game names. Okay,
Speaker 1: so actually compile the list for us. Let's hear him.
Speaker 1: Would hope we have grant? Can you we got real? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm not saying I'm not saying the last names. I mean,
Speaker 1: the only last time I'm using is Danielle because she
Speaker 1: always says Daniel delil. So it's you take the you
Speaker 1: take the first initial, the first name in the first
Speaker 1: initial the last name. So danielle Um, according to the list,
Speaker 1: would be Harry Pouch. How did you get to Harry Potch?
Speaker 1: You take the pace? No, I mean it's there's a website.
Speaker 1: It's it takes this. You take the word from the
Speaker 1: first unitial post. Malone guy his name, but it's not
Speaker 1: a Harry Pouch because she's as a tap like nobody.
Speaker 1: I got no Harry pal and I'm sorry. Astor's was
Speaker 1: probably the funniest. Astra is crusty doughnuts, noss going on.
Speaker 1: It's squeaky clean baby? Is that why you haven't gotten
Speaker 1: a date? And then Wendy was whiffy pedal pedal? What's mine?
Speaker 1: I'm actually going to mind mine. I wrote that down. Also,
Speaker 1: mine would be Whiffy destroyer. And if I use J
Speaker 1: and J for you, you would be Tuna Tuna wallet.
Speaker 1: It's a good tuna. So we really don't know what
Speaker 1: the badge game is. We couldn't figure out what it is.
Speaker 1: We just show you. Actually, actually I think I saw
Speaker 1: the badge game being played when I was in Thailand.
Speaker 1: It's called the Ping Pung Show wait Game. When that
Speaker 1: was round two of the Bally, we learned that it
Speaker 1: is anything you wanted to be and the boys likely
Speaker 1: made this thing up on that ship. That was again
Speaker 1: our friends from Tales Over Cocktails had a long way.
Speaker 1: They're very funny. Yeah, you gotta listen to them. Download
Speaker 1: their podcast. I feel like the first couple episodes like
Speaker 1: ours were growing pain experience right right, and then they
Speaker 1: added the lilo and it's just mayhem every time. Now
Speaker 1: we'll all four of them are amazing, hilarious. I I
Speaker 1: tipped my cap, you know what, I raised my cocktail.
Speaker 1: You and I have to say Astra and Wendy on
Speaker 1: the show Radio Professionals, We've known him for a long time.
Speaker 1: Who are the sweetest women and most talented women in
Speaker 1: I know? I know Wendy since she was like sixteen.
Speaker 1: Didn't she like want to be an intern and you
Speaker 1: got an internship another radio station. I had nothing to
Speaker 1: do with it, She wrote to me in America Online. Yeah,
Speaker 1: in an I am and goot name was like Kiwi
Speaker 1: Flower or something exactly, and she said, you know, she
Speaker 1: wanted to talk, she wanted to radio. She saved that note. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then she got a job at the w b
Speaker 1: l I on Long Island, in Long Island or on
Speaker 1: Long Island whatever, and then Astro followed suit. They worked
Speaker 1: at the same radio station, doing nights in afternoons. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we don't need anyway, the point is it now they're here.
Speaker 1: But but they partnered with Daniel, who was not a
Speaker 1: radio professional, and and West who's an engineer, and hold
Speaker 1: On West. Hold On is an I guy. West is
Speaker 1: supposed to be an I T guy, but he's also
Speaker 1: a photographer. Yeah, the guy's great. Everything he puts his
Speaker 1: hands on on that guy, it turns to gold. But
Speaker 1: I should I talk about my problem with the with
Speaker 1: I T now or wait till later? Because West is
Speaker 1: all okay, okay, why don't you let so. West came
Speaker 1: to me two weeks ago and he says, there's the
Speaker 1: vege game thing is we're gonna talk about that. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be a good segment. We talk about it and
Speaker 1: do some research, see if the girls have heard about it. Whatever.
Speaker 1: So as you could see, they did initiate a conversation
Speaker 1: on this show which was turning out very very very
Speaker 1: funny that we'll take credit for that, and then they
Speaker 1: called bullshit on us, which I don't think. It's very
Speaker 1: nice with friends in it. We promote them all the
Speaker 1: time because we love the podcast. It very funny. Also
Speaker 1: on iHeart radio anywhere you get your podcasts. Um. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing. We did that like five six weeks ago, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I made that up. I made that up. There's no
Speaker 1: such thing as the vege game. But I had scary convinced. Okay,
Speaker 1: Diamond called her friend, uh and she played along. If
Speaker 1: you listen back to the episode where I was convinced
Speaker 1: that there was no such thing. But then, but then
Speaker 1: Diamond's friend gets on the phone, and I know Brody
Speaker 1: didn't set her up. Nope, did you set her up? Nope,
Speaker 1: you did not, because I saw her just just dial
Speaker 1: the phone and put her on the fact that Diamond's
Speaker 1: friend claimed to have played it right led me to
Speaker 1: believe that maybe there was such a thing. Right then,
Speaker 1: We finished the podcast that afternoon and Brody let me
Speaker 1: off the hook. He goes, dude, it was the fucking which,
Speaker 1: by the way, kudos to Diamond's friend for not ruining
Speaker 1: the joke. She was she was thrown into the Listen
Speaker 1: back to the how long? For thirty minutes? You were
Speaker 1: in on it though you felt like it was I
Speaker 1: felt like it was a thing. When when Diamond's friend
Speaker 1: was on the phone, Yeah, said, yeah, you did not
Speaker 1: set her. I did. I texted Diamond when she went
Speaker 1: to go call her friend. Also, you texted her and
Speaker 1: then she because I don't know how Diamond came in
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden the friend was on the phone.
Speaker 1: I thought that it was too quick. No, it was
Speaker 1: all I mean. I I texted her like play along. Okay,
Speaker 1: So you did text her right now? Yes, I had
Speaker 1: you beat for forty minutes. Right, well, well you I
Speaker 1: gotta give it to you, sleight of hand. Whatever you
Speaker 1: were doing, you quickly texted her to tell you her
Speaker 1: friend to get on board. I thought her friend just
Speaker 1: jumped on board and was like I'm gonna go. I mean,
Speaker 1: I also gave her the like the winky face every
Speaker 1: time you looked at her in the eye when you
Speaker 1: were looking at me was on the phone. There was
Speaker 1: no way. So either way she must have prepped her friend.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's great, awesome, Yeah, well you know what. Okay,
Speaker 1: after that, Brod, He's like, because I said, look, we
Speaker 1: gotta go back on the air in the next podcast
Speaker 1: and just lock the audience off the hook that the
Speaker 1: whole thing was a joke. And then he said, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give us the tales over cocktails and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna and I'm gonna let them talk about it on
Speaker 1: their podcast first, and then we're gonna play back the
Speaker 1: audio and then we're gonna let everybody off the hook. Right.
Speaker 1: But that, as you can see, backfire now face because
Speaker 1: they called bullshit on us, Right, But that's okay. We
Speaker 1: still got to do a topic and talk about us
Speaker 1: and promote us. So that's fine, all right? Can I
Speaker 1: talk about Wes from it? I'm talking about this whole
Speaker 1: new thing that's going on. So we have a system here,
Speaker 1: the trouble ticket system where if something breaks. Back in
Speaker 1: the old days, I didn't like up to like two
Speaker 1: years ago, if something broke, you said, hey, Jeff, George
Speaker 1: west raj whatever, can you come fix my laptop? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll add it to my list. I'll be there later. Well,
Speaker 1: then corporate was like, how do we know how much
Speaker 1: they're working every day? We don't know if these guys
Speaker 1: sit around and throw darts or they're doing work. So
Speaker 1: now at my fat head droom cardboard fath ahead of
Speaker 1: me and through darts at by the way, you shouldn't.
Speaker 1: That's really not a fathead picture, right, So I didn't
Speaker 1: want to say that. Okay, but I don't get big.
Speaker 1: I don't want to imply that they sit around throwing darts.
Speaker 1: I was sort of being the tongue in cheek. You
Speaker 1: have to go say that anyway. They do work very hard.
Speaker 1: So now if you want them to fix something, you
Speaker 1: have to go to a website, right, the internal website,
Speaker 1: and you put in some information what's broken, what department,
Speaker 1: where is it located? In a brief description, And it
Speaker 1: used to go right to them. They would see it
Speaker 1: pop up on the screen and it would go all
Speaker 1: I'd be right there and like five minutes later, boom,
Speaker 1: boom boom. So a couple of things went wrong this week?
Speaker 1: Is it tast Thursday? So Tuesday, my phone doesn't log
Speaker 1: onto the free WiFi, the I Heart WiFi here in
Speaker 1: the building. Now, in order to get on that WiFi,
Speaker 1: you have to work here and have a code, right,
Speaker 1: all employees have codes. I have a code, it's in
Speaker 1: my phone. I walk in it goes on WiFi. So Tuesday,
Speaker 1: it's not going on WiFi. It's not connecting. Nope. So
Speaker 1: they have an I heeart guest account, which is like, oh,
Speaker 1: here's some freebee. It's like you wanted steak dinner and
Speaker 1: they hand you like dog bones. It's the worst WiFi ever.
Speaker 1: But you can go on like Google dot com. But
Speaker 1: you can't go on like Twitter sites with high volumes
Speaker 1: and refresh rates. It's terrible. It's like, if you want
Speaker 1: to send an email slowly, that's fine before it uploads anything.
Speaker 1: So the whole day, I keep trying to log in,

Speaker 1: this point, I've texted West three times, Hey man, what's
Speaker 1: wrong with the WiFi? No response, thanks West. So now
Speaker 1: he's my body. So I text them, even though that's
Speaker 1: not really the corporate way, but okay, so I see

Speaker 1: you gotta have like a button bar or like one
Speaker 1: of your favorite things they click on them, right, Okay,
Speaker 1: well I can't do the podcast without that. So I
Speaker 1: log into my account and all the important screens are
Speaker 1: off the screen, where like you can see the bottom
Speaker 1: of it, but you can't drag the bottom, don't drag
Speaker 1: the top, but you can't get to the top. So
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, what the hell someone changed the resolution?
Speaker 1: You're right so on the desktop. So I go to

Speaker 1: have to you're not paying attention? How do you give
Speaker 1: a ten with one key stroke? You can't on your

Speaker 1: customer service was between zero and ten, tending the highest
Speaker 1: and only one key stroke? You have? You need the
Speaker 1: one thing because if you hit the one right, So

Speaker 1: as ten. Yeah, the zero is ten. I can go
Speaker 1: for the zero because you can't go less than one.
