Speaker 1: real crappy airport. Anyways, Oh man, I had the funniest

60
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: thing happen. I thought of you because okay, it was

61
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: multi parent generational. I was in a shopping center and

62
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: I was just killing some time standing in the shade,

63
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: and out from this restaurant comes a little girl, a nerdy,

64
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: little like six year old, and her mom's right behind her,

65
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: and her mom's like, what do you want to do now?

66
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: And the little girl says, can we get some acorns?

67
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: And the mom says what. She goes, can we get

68
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: some acorns? She goes, no, what what? And then the

69
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: dad comes out and he goes, what did she say?

70
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: The little goes, can we get some acorns? The dad goes,

71
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: there's no corns. It's the middle of summer. Where are

72
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: we gonna get acorns? What do you want them for?

73
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: And she's like to eat them? And they're coming out

74
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: of a restaurant and then here comes grandma, lovable grandma,

75
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: uh huh, and they go what is she asking about?

76
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: I Meanwhile, I'm just standing there staring at this whole family.

77
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: And the little girl says it again, can we get acorns?

78
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: And the grandmother goes, mmmm, acorns do sound good? And

79
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: then they walked by me. So I don't know what

80
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: that means. I don't know what secret language this little

81
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: girl is speaking, but I was just thinking about how

82
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: it is insane that this little kid, for some reason,

83
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: was thinking that and three adults had to deal with it.

84
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 2: Also, the grandmother's response is the correct response, Yeah, an

85
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 2: insane request, going well, that would be fun, and then

86
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 2: just continue to because all the kid wants is to

87
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 2: just be like heard, do you know what I mean?

88
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: Whether she's being stick or wants to eat acorns. We

89
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: don't know what's really at the bottom of the.

90
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 2: Later down the line, we can have the discussion that

91
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: acorns don't exist in the summertime and that you can't

92
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 2: eat them.

93
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: Grandma just said, yeah, that does sound good corns. I

94
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: was just like, I'm glad I witnessed this strange family

95
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: having a strange lunch.

96
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: Oh man, I uh. I was talking to Gus speaking

97
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 2: of all of this. Gus is now currently three, are

98
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 2: going to be four soon, and he was doing something

99
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 2: and I can't remember what. He was trying to maybe

100
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 2: kill something, and I was like, gush, like, you know,

101
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 2: everything is alive. Everything in this universe is alive. Can

102
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 2: you believe that? And he just paused and he goes

103
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 2: even the sun, and I was like, you.

104
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 3: Know, interestingly enough, every part, every molecule, every particle in

105
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 3: your body was born in the center, in the heart

106
00:05:58,760 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 3: of a star.

107
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 2: And then he just looked at me. He's three, and

108
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 2: I was like, Gus, you're made of stardust. And when

109
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 2: I told all of this around the same time, she

110
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 2: was like a which star And I was like, you choose,

111
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 2: and she's like and then she like looked up stars

112
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 2: and she's like, I'm at you. I scwed I and

00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: Good and then Gus just I go, you're made of stardust, Gus.

115
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 2: Gus takes a beat and then just goes, no, I'm not.

116
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: All right. I just laughed so hard. He's going to

117
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: be a lawyer, and I like it for him. Yeah,

118
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: he's an artist. I saw him spraying spray on suntaneotion

119
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: on a spider and I said, this kid's an artist.

120
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: The kids, this kid is thinking outside the bond, and

121

00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 1: so naughty.

Speaker 2: He goes okay, and then just got a little further

127
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 2: like behind the planter and continued to do it. And

128
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 2: then I'll go Gus, and he would like poke his

Speaker 2: Yeah, the firstborn is the president. Second born is a criminal.

138
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 2: You're the criminal, Scottie.

139
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: That's time with me. Were you No, you were not

140
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: even a bad kid. I stole like two things, and honestly,

141
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: I've paid it back, no regrets. There were gifts. I

142
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: stole things that I gave to other people. So what

143
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: is that. It's fourteen, fifteen fifteen. I stole beer glasses

144
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: from Mays Beer Glass for my boss at the bike Doctor.

145
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: He was a twenty three year old guy, so I thought, oh,

146
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: I'll get him some pints. And then nobody came to

147
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: check me out, and nobody came to check me out,

148
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: and I went to another one and nobody. I just

149
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: looked around and nobody thought the fifteen year old had

150
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: any money. So I walked right out the store out

151
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: my statute of limitations in Owings Mills Mall, which I

152
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: don't even think is there anymore?

153
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 2: I love them, You said beer glasses. I was so confused.

154
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, that's a weird way to say

155
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: it glasses that are beers, like beer goggles. Yeah, like

156
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: beer goggles. I did say it dumbly.

157
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 2: I think I stole When I was five, I stole

158
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 2: a pack of Gatorade gum.

159
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: Delicious gum, and my mom made me return it. She

160
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: was very mad. Of course, that's okay.

161
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 2: Lessons learned cocaine dumped in the sea off Florida could

162
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 2: have crazy consequences of sharks eate it.

163
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: Scientists.

164
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 2: Fine, I love pure hypothetical here. I love what scientists

165
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 2: are doing out there. They're like, hey, what if what

166
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,599
Speaker 2: if a bunch of sharks ate a ton of cocaine?

167
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: Okay, that's a hypothesis. We're gonna run with so much

168
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: that the bored news cycle will post it.

169
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

170
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 2: So many ban animals sent this in. This was the

171
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 2: best version of the article I think I could find.

172
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: This is from Sky News.

173
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 2: The UK trusts it and this was written by Russell Hope,

174
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 2: the best of the biz, because I know he's the

175
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 2: best in the biz because after his name, it just

176
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 2: says all lowercase news reporter.

177
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: That's what you put it on a tombstone.

178
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 2: Put it, I mean capitalized news, capitalized reporter. If this

179
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 2: is the guy's title, Please all right. Sharks may be

180
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 2: consuming cocaine dumped in the waters off Florida, and it

181
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 2: could be making them act in quote crazy ways. Scientists

182
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 2: have said, I hope that crazy was in the actual paper.

183
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: These scientists too, well, this is this shit's crazy. Sharks

184
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: are doing crazy.

185
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 2: Researchers instant investigating whether drugs dumped overboard impact the region's

186
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 2: marine li for a documentary found some sharks appeared to

187
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 2: be acting strangely and others responded to simular similar stimulants.

188
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 2: Smugglers have left countless tons of cocaine in the season

189
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 2: around Florida, transported from South and Central America, either to

190
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 2: be collected by associates or to avoid arrest.

191
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: The drugs are.

192
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 2: Then often washed onto shore on ocean currents. Just last month,

193
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 2: the US Coast Guard seized more than fourteen thousand, one

194
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 2: hundred pounds of cocaine in the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean,

195
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 2: with an estimated value of one hundred and eighty six

196
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 2: million dollars. That's that's far more than I thought that

197
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 2: that is so much.

198
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: That's a lot of people. That means stuff. They can't

199
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: get enough of the stuff.

200
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: And that's probably a small percentage of what's coming in right, correct,

201
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 2: of course. Marine biologist Tom quote the blowfish heard holds,

202
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 2: what's he happening? This is the well, this is the

203
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 2: guy who does the cocaine shark study.

204
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the blow I'm the blowfish. I do so

205
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: much blow when I'm fishing.

206
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: University of Florida environmental scientist Tracy Fanara. The two of

207
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 2: them studied sharks off the Florida Keys to see if

208
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 2: the drugs were having any impact any impact on them.

209
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 2: During one dive to observe behavior, a great hammerhead, of

210
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 2: species which normally avoids humans, came straight at the team

211
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: and appeared to be swimming wonkily again, I hope a

212
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 2: quote from the from the from the paper. Researchers also

213
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 2: recorded a sandbar shark, which appeared to be fixated on

214
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 2: something and was swimming in tight circles despite their being

215
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: nothing in sight.

216
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: Seems like what sharks do so far. Also, no shark

217
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: swims weirder than a hammer head. Probably creepy a shark.

218
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 2: I found that they can't actually see ahead of them,

219
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 2: so they're they're can't They just always move their head

220
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 2: back and forth that's not like part of them swimming.

221
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, like so somebody that just did a keypomp. They're

222
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: working it out. They don't have jaws, like what they

223
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: do They shake their heads.

224
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: As well as monitoring the sharks of scientists also put

225
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 2: packages similar in size and appearance to real cocaine biales

226
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 2: in the water next to dummy swans as part of

227
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 2: their study. To their surprise, the sharks headed straight for

228
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,959
Speaker 2: the bales, not the swans, taking bites from them. Okay,

229
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: one shark even grabbed a bound swam off with it.

230
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 2: This is this as a study is so looney tunes?

231
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: Yes, this is as if you and I said we

232
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: were scientists and we're like, let's do something. Yeah, first off,

233
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: time we had fun. Are these ocean swans?

234
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 2: As far as I know, a swan is a fresh

235
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: water bird.

236
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 1: It's not out in the middle of the ocean, especially

237
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: not at the bottom of it. A swan.

238
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:58,199
Speaker 2: Yeah the big Oh my god, Okay, it's a swan.

239
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: Secondly, he needed a white thing, is what I'm hearing.

240
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: They needed something white. See.

241
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 2: Secondly, you, how is this shark supposed to be like,

242
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 2: there's a cocaine bail as opposed to any other bail

243
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 2: of thing that fell into the water, which is probably

244
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 2: thousands and thousands of things. And next the researcher made

245
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 2: a bait ball of highly This is fascinating. Next the

246
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: researchers made a bait ball of highly concentrated fish powder.

247
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: This was designed to trigger a dope bamine rush as

248
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 2: close to a hit of cocaine as the team could

249
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: feasibly and ethically do in an experiment. When the sharks

250
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 2: ate the powder, the researchers saw them going wild. Quote,

251
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 2: I think we've got a potential scenario of what it

252
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 2: may look like if you gave sharks cocaine, mister hur

253
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 2: said in the film, Oh the film, Oh, this is

254
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: from a fucking Shark week thing for Discovery Channel. This

255
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 2: show is called Cocaine Sharks. Oh, this is all invented

256
00:13:59,559 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: for TV.

257
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: That's why you're staying now.

258
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 2: That's why somebody named the blowfish is in charge.

259
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: All right. I always say, well, I think it is

260
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: Shark Breek this week, which is fun, and they're running

261
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: out of stuff. I just saw the giant fake whale

262
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: carcass with a guy in it. They had they build

263
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: a fake one with an underwater bubble window that a

264
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: guy is in it, and then it's to get great

265
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: whites to like circle and attack. But it's not a

266
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: real whale, so does it smell the whole thing? With

267
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: sharks doesn't smell their whole Yes, finally, be funny, put

268
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: a mirror out and put some lines of fake cocaine

269
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: on it on the bottom of the ocean and.

270
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 2: See you for sure what we were trying to do,

271
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 2: which was give a shark a birthday cake. That is,

272
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 2: we're gonna make a shark for a TV show that

273
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 2: we had.

274
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: A long time ago.

275
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 2: We were gonna have a cake made of fish guts,

276
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 2: but make it look like a perfect cake. And then

277
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 2: we wanted and then we would chum the waters and

278
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 2: get a shark excited and then have it was when

279
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 2: he came up, we would throw the cake in his

280
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 2: mouth and that would be the start of the show.

281
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: And Mexican Shark Tour said, yes, we will do that,

282
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: but it was just off season and the network would

283
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: not wait for us to do it. But I was

284
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: just I did bad ideas for Quibi now on Roku

285
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: with Adam and we went down to the Bahamas to

286
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: do a shark dive with this wrestling diva Lana c

287
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: J Bari, and so we go out two full days

288
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:33,359
Speaker 1: chumming the water and saw one shark, one blue so crazy.

289
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I've thought that if you just dropped bloody

290
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: fish chum in the water no matter where you were

291
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: that and like we and they were like, oh, there's

292
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: a shark, and everybody's so excited, and it didn't like

293
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: attack the chum box. It was the middle of the

294
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: day and they do seem to go away during the

295
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: heat in the middle of high but we were out

296
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: there so long and so desperate to find any sharks

297
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: that like when I had to pee, I was just

298
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: jumping in the water and swimming with two or three

299
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: buckets of chum in the water. And then we all

300
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: started to do it. And then thank God for CJ

301
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: because she was like, well, I'm just going to turn

302
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: this into Instagram and TikTok content. Will you just take photos?

303
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: And I was like sure, So I just took the

304
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: pictures of CJ while the rest of us just cooked

305
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: in the sun and swam around and chummed waters, peeing

306
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: so smart.

307
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 2: Everyone were people vomiting to.

308
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: Nobody got sick. Everybody was had the cool thing about nonscripted,

309
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: which is like reality shows to most people, is the

310
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: camera and crew for those type of shows are the toughest, gnarliest,

311
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: most badass people. The crew that were department. So these

312
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: two camera guys and the line producer, I just got

Speaker 1: done shooting in the Everglades catching sharks, excuse me, catching snakes.

314
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: They were like a python wrangler thing where you can

315
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: turn in snakes, and these guys would go up to

316
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: their chests in the Everglades while these snake hunters were

317
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: pulling snakes out of the trees. Oh and they're like

Speaker 1: standing on the sidewalk in one hundred degree temperature. It's

368
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: to a grate near the Missouri River more than one

369
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: hour later. So just an hour in the sewer system

370
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: and you go a full mile wow. Friday afternoon, Omaha

371
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: fire investigators said the forty one year old man went

372
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: into the hospital and was in serious condition. He is

373
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: conscious and he was conscious when he was rescued from

374
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: the cold rain water. It all started with two ace

375
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 1: cleaning employees working in a manhole on nineteenth and Howard

376
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 1: on Friday morning when heavy rains hit the area. So

377
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: these guys are just doing it.

378
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 2: So they're just there, So they're just down there, they're

379
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: just clearing it out.

380
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god. One of the two workers was

381
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: pulled from the manhole. That was a fifty year old

382
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 1: who had hooked himself to the sewer's metal wire hall

383
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,160
Speaker 1: system that allowed firefighters to pull him onto the street.

384
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: So this one guy like a safety harnessed thing and

385
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: didn't get yanked away. The second worker disappeared into the

386
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: sewer system. What a ride?

387
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 2: I mean, like this isn't yeah, so like what is that?

388
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 2: Like I'm assuming it's probably like what like two feet

389
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 2: by two feet Like that's sort.

390
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 1: Of a I don't know, Yeah, it's huge and it

391
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: just an avalanche water came like or it's you know,

392
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: just a normal big old sewer tube and then just

393
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: a wall of water caught him. Yeah, that's interesting.

394
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 2: I guess they just didn't realize that it started raining

395
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 2: because they were down below, or.

396
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: It's rating so hard there. I mean, it's crazy that

397
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: this could happen. But also like, yeah, it's like a movie.

398
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: Every movie that has water bursting through it's like here

399
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 1: it comes, and then it's like Raiders of the Lost Argon,

400
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: It's like here comes chasing you out.

401
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you hear it like one second beforehand, right.

402
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a rumble, or if you're down a seweror

403
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 1: just a huge gust of horrible smelling air hits you

404
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: in the face and then you get hit by it. Yeah,

405
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: this has been thrilling.

406
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 2: This is to give you an idea about I if

407
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 2: anybody wants to do this, because this is a YouTube

408
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 2: rabbit hole I like to go down, you know, as

409
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 2: in addition to my classic YouTube rabbit holes of ship

410
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 2: launches and handkerchief twirling, just go to h flash floods,

411
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 2: flash floods, desert and that is so it's people who

412
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 2: chase flash floods. So they'll go and they'll put themselves

413
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: in a dry river bed where they know that like

414
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 2: two miles away is a huge rainstorm, and then they're

415
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 2: just watching this dry river bed and then you just

416
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 2: see it come and it's like the first time it comes,

417
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 2: it's like this, it's a monster. It's like just mud

418
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: and dirt and boulders just being pushed and it's rolling

419
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 2: and picking up everything in its past.

420
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: It doesn't look like water.

421
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: And then within I don't know, fifteen to thirty seconds,

422
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 2: it's a full river and it's like the craziest thing

423
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 2: you'll ever watch on YouTube.

424
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: That's not true. There's a real lot of crazy. It's

425
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: pretty cool though. Also, you reminded me of a story

426
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: that comes. Okay, great, so this story, so thank you

427
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: for that. Search involved multiple rescue crews throughout the downtown area.

428
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: Firefighters pulled manhold covers at Seventh and Jones based on

429
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: the storm sewer mappings. Isn't this when you think of,

430
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 1: like I want to be a fireman? Yeah, isn't this

431
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: one of the things? This is like what if somebody

432
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 1: gets swept away and then I have to be the

433
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 1: one that goes in. This seems like the dream scenario

434
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: for fire person to be, like, let's go get it.

435
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 2: My dream scenario is just to have that sewer map.

436
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 1: What a that?

437
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 2: I of course it won't exists, but I didn't even

438
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 2: think that.

439
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: One more, let's try to get our hands on a

440
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 1: LA sewer map. Sewer map, Yeah, besides the La River,

441
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: the greatest sewer of them all. Investigators say the forty

442
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 1: one year old was briefly caught at seventh in Jones,

443
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 1: but the water swept him away again. So this really

444
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: it's like you're saying, wow, it came for him. Minutes later,

445
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: emergency dispatchers told rescuers the man had made it to

446
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: the water along the Missouri River but was trapped in

447
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: the storm sewer by metal grates, so he literally, God,

448
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: this seems bad. This seems like uh oh yeah.

449
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 2: I can't believe that there wasn't any grates before that.

450
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: Nope, he was just really hot. Yeah. Yeah, this guy's

451
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: just flowing. This guy's just going with the flow. Yeah.

452
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: Definition of Omaha. Fire crews then cut the great open

453
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: and rescue the worker. Again. This is like fire dream scenario. Yeah,

454
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,399
Speaker 1: it's like, you need me. He's trapped against a sewer

455
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: that's going to flood up, and there's debris and we

456
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 1: have to cut this gate. I feel like everybody also says,

457
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: you know, there's like things that you learn in TV

458
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: or hearing movies, and then everybody acts like they're the

459
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: first person to say it. But one of those is

460
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: like people say jaws of life. If you have to

461
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: use those, it's more like jaws of death, and you're like, Okay,

462
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: you don't need to act like you know, yeah, exactly right.

463
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: People like to act like they know that. I always

464
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: pay attention to what people are saying. I'm like, yeah,

465
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 1: I've heard that nine thousand times. AnyWho. The names of

00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 1: the men involved have not been released. ACE Pipe Cleaning

467
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 1: declined Wrestler request for comment. Why you guys are dedicated.

468
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: One guy did the right thing and the other guy

469
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: went with the flow. The owners of Southside Plumbing have

470
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: maintained and repaired the city's underground pipelines, before saying that

471
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 1: the Omaha's storm and sanitary sewers, it's likely the workers

472
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: were in a storm water pipe when they were suddenly

473
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: swept away, So they were in like a specific one

474
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: that's where all the water filters to Basically, Okay, yeah, yes,

475
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,239
Speaker 1: if you're at the bottom of a hill, all that

476
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: surface water is going to be rushed away. I can

477
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 1: only imagine the potential hazard actually being down in a

478
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,199
Speaker 1: structure like that and being swept away. You're dealing with

479
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: significant amounts of water, pretty all right. And then let's see.

480
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 2: There's a There's another thing that I started doing because

481
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 2: I saw it on TikTok, which is there's these guys

482
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 2: who just go to, you know, an area of a

483
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 2: street that's just flooded after it stopped raining, and then

484
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 2: you can identify where the sewer actually is and it's

485
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 2: just all covered with leaves and they go in there

486
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 2: with little rakes and they go and then it just

487
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 2: drains immediately, and it's so amazingly satisfied to watch ticked.

488
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 2: But I did that with Olive once this winter. We

489
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 2: were walking to school and it was just a lake

490
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 2: and I had like my waterproof shoes on it.

491
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: I was like, watch this and she was like, this

492
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: is the coolest thing I've ever seen. I was like,

493
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: I know.

494
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 2: And then she wanted to do it every single time,

495
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 2: and I was like, we can't clean every storm drain

496
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 2: we see, honey, I wish we could.

497
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wish you could, because that would be a

498
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 1: huge TikTok. So if you made it look like she

499
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 1: did it. You go out there in little workman clothes

500
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: and stuff and cool. I'll wrap it up with this O.

501
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 1: Maha Mayor Jean Stothard applauded the work of the fire crews,

502
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 1: as do we police and sewer maintenance workers, because they

503
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: saved this guy's life. In a statement, she said, quote,

504
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 1: the expertise and urgency of our fire and Police department,

505
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: sewer maintenance employees, and private contractors saved lives today. Life

506
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: saving teamwork requires training, shared information coordination. I'm thankful for

507
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: the successful outcome of this rescue and for the two

508
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: workers who will fully recover. So there you go. Good.

509
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 2: I'm happy that they're safe and my good good to

510
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 2: hear that roar. Look out, Scotty, give me that story

511
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 2: I reminded you.

512
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So I worked with this dude who I

513
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 1: won't name the company because he might still be there.

514
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: But this is jeez, a long time ago, ten twelve

515
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: years ago. His name was Kyle, though, I'll say that

516
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 1: all right, And he didn't talk a whole heck of

517
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: a lot, but one day he was like silent Kyle.

518
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 1: Silent Kyle. He His thing on YouTube was he would

519
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: go through videos of wave pools around the world, like

520
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,439
Speaker 1: people that have and sometimes there are live streams, are

521
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: live feeds of wave pools, you know, where people swim

522
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: at water poks, all right, And he would find people

523
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 1: that were making a more while other people were swimming

524
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: in water pools. What, yes, he did, and he called

525
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 1: it smocking. That's what like smocking because he says that

526
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 1: was the sound it makes when two people's bodies pull

527
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 1: apart and they're in water. It's like so he'd be like,

528
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: do you like smocking videos? I was like, what are those?

529
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: And he had saved I don't know, fifteen or twenty

530
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 1: of these things. He's like, look at that couple over there,

531
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 1: and I'll be dog goned in every single video he

532
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: showed me, either to be a crowded pool with people

533
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: with tubes and people swimming around, and then over in

534
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 1: the corner near of the wall, just two people having

535
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: sex in the water in the wave pool while it's happening.

536
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 2: Like the wave pool is a it's an upsetting place

537
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 2: to be at the best of times.

538
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,880
Speaker 1: With all holes sealed, with all the fight of being

539
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: in there.

540
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 2: Exactly where you could use both hands are free to

541
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 2: grab onto something.

542
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: If I say to you, stray band aid, the first

543
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: thing your head goes to is waveful at a water park.

544
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: But he was just clicking through. He goes, oh, yeah,

545
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: this is a good one. Check this one out. Oh,

546
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: this one's in Japan. Oh, this one's in Mexico City.

547
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: And he just had a lineup and you couldn't see

548
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 1: in graphic, but you could tell what they were doing.

549
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 1: But it was they were doing it in public. And

550
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a real name for this,

551
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: but he caught it smocking, and he said, it's what

552
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,239
Speaker 1: two bay has come together, creates a sound that's like

553
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: a wet like sounds. So, so, Kyle, if you listen

554
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: to bananas, I don't know, email me or don't. Just

555
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: keep going, keep living your passion. You're not doing anything wrong.

556
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 2: You're just not doing anything wrong. That's why it's so quiet,

557
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 2: just thinking. He's thinking about this. He's got a constant

558
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 2: he's got a constant movie running up.

559
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 1: Smocking thing. He's smocking Yeah, smoking in the Free.

Speaker 1: There we go, There we go. This is a great start.

563
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: So soiled is the worst. We'll be back with more bananas.

564
00:29:49,040 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 4: Bananas, betty, folks, we are back, Scottie.

565
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: I do have a shout out here. Do you have one? Yeah?

566
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: I got a billion, so you please go first.

567
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 2: All right, this is from Beth vsw cool. She says, Hey,

568
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 2: bee boys, I just got dumped out of nowhere because

569
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 2: I had a panic attack in front of my boyfriend

570
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 2: of several months and he decided he couldn't quote handle it.

571
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 2: So now I'm gonna do something nice for others to

572
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 2: make myself feel better, and because that dude can go

573
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 2: kick rocks.

574
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 1: First of all, shout out to me.

575
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 2: Preparing to start my second year as a substitute teacher

576
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 2: in a small city in Ruralish, Oregon. I decided to

577
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 2: substitute teach because, like in many other areas, there's a

578
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 2: shortage of substitute teachers in Oregon. Teachers deserve to be

579
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 2: able to take a sick day and know they're in

580
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 2: capable hands so students don't lose a day of learning.

581
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 2: It's hard work, y'all, especially since I teach a lot

582
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 2: in middle school where many substitutes refuse to work. Secondly,

583
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 2: for the probably not cool but helping part. This is cool,

584
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 2: don't worry. I'd like to collect supplies for the upcoming

585
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 2: school year to help students and teachers, substitutes and regular

586
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 2: type in my school district and made a link tree

587
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 2: for anyone wanting to help out. And that's link tree

588
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 2: slash substitute supplies. So substitutes definitely don't get any supplies

589
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 2: provided to them, and we get paid even less than

590
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 2: regular teachers. Also, every school my district has federally designated

591
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: a low income school, so I'll share any supplies with

592
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 2: other teachers and directly with students in classes I teach,

593
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 2: and she asks if we could share it. Of course

594
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 2: we can share it, Beth, this is great. Again, it's

595
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 2: link tree slash substitute supplies. Okay, So it's like the

596
00:31:56,120 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 2: way link tree works is it's l l n KR,

597
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 2: link tr dot ee and then slash and then substitute supplies.

598
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 2: We'll link to it in our Instagram as well. Katie, Katie,

599
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 2: if you would just remind us to post this on

600
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 2: the Instagram the day that this goes up, we'd appreciate it.

601
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 2: But Beth, you're doing awesome. Thank you so much, and

602
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 2: that dude can.

Speaker 2: it is an indoor water park hotel that you can

00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 2: The water will run out, they will not have eddy

661
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 2: slides to work, but it'll just be a lot of

662
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 2: squeaking and skin burns on plastic.

663
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 1: At that point, no smile there.

664
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 2: The incident happen Monday night when a woman visiting the

665
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 2: lodge with her family bought a Game Night box as

666
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 2: a birthday gift for her nine year old son.

667
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: Don't you do this quote?

668
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 2: Something was wrapped inside it and I didn't see any goodies,

669
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,840
Speaker 2: so assuming it was all wrapped in tissue paper, me

670
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 2: and my sister Brandy dug in it, Brittany Gron said.

671
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 2: Gron said they picked out wet wipes and didn't realize

672
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 2: it was a diaper until they had it fully unwrapped.

673
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 2: Disgusted was about my only reaction. I was only I

674
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 2: was the one to unroll the package and touch what

675
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 2: was inside. Grand's sister, Brandy Wible said, of course the

676
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,760
Speaker 2: mom just like gives the game and then walks away.

677
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 2: I would it's a wrapped set a game. It's for

678
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 2: people not wondering what a game night box typically contains.

679
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 2: I am it typically contains things like caramel corn, another

680
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 2: fun Great Wolf Lodge treats and toys. However, the box

681
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 2: they received was anything but that. But there might have

682
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 2: been caramel corn in there. And while they were even

683
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 2: given a Build a Bear voucher and a refund for

684
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 2: the package, they said they weren't pleased with how things

685
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 2: were handled the night of the incident. Quote, Monday morning,

686
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 2: we're able to talk to someone and he was more reasonable,

687
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 2: but still I had it on my hands. I'm not

688
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 2: okay with that. If it would have been one of

689
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,399
Speaker 2: our kids. I don't know what my reaction would have been.

690
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 2: Great Wolf for Lodge has refunded the family for their

691
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 2: stay and has released the following statement. We take the

Speaker 2: diaper in anything I order.

733
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: There was an urban legend that I actually confirmed not

00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: too too long ago that was there used to be

735
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,080

736
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:39,360
Speaker 1: hit show called According to Jim. Yeah, I remember Jim Belushi,

737
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,759
Speaker 1: you know, the more famous, the more funny of the

738
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 1: Belushi brothers. Everybody, but I had heard that at like

739
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 1: the season one wrap party at his house or wherever

740
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,839
Speaker 1: it was, that the gift they gave out was his

741
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:58,640

746
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: I have all my workholic stuff sto. Yeah, what I

747
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: heard is they all put it through the open window

748
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,720
Speaker 1: of his like sports car that was parked his driveway,

749
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: so that they filled his entire car with his own

750
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: book as like a fuck you. So I was like

751
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: I had heard this for many years in different writers rooms,

752
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 1: and so I tweeted about it. I was like, does

753
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 1: anybody know anything about this? Does anybody like know if

754
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 1: this is true? And this guy's like not true? The

755
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 1: true story is he gave us season one, according to

756
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: Jim DVD's as a present, not his books. So the

757
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: show they just went over the whole time. So then

758
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 1: they all went outside and there was like his oh,

759
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 1: his windows rolled down like and as wide as a book.

760
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,000
Speaker 1: And so he's just sliding and covering his car with

761
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,359
Speaker 1: DVDs and inside of his car. So when he came

762
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: out in the morning, there were just one hundred according

763
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 1: to Jim DVD's on his own car, and he like

764
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: apologized to make a big deal out of it, but

765
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, good for that crew, great for that crew. Also,

766
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 1: that is.

767
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 2: A organization at a party that is.

768
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 1: Beautiful, beautiful, but you know the first person was like

769
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,120

00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,359
Speaker 1: of the carve is like, yep, this is the way.

771
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 1: This is what we're doing as a whole. Our good

772
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 1: mutual friend Chris used to work for Martha Stewart and

773
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: their Christmas present one year was the Martha Stewart cookbook.

774
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,360

00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 2: I uh I I remember talking to someone.

00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 1: I don't think they were on bananas. You tell me

780
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: if they were on bananas.

781
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:51,360
Speaker 2: But okay, But Chelsea Handler, when I used to do

00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:58,240
Speaker 2: Chelsea Lately, a TV show, Chelsea Handler gave great, great

783
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 2: like Christmas present. Okay, they were always really nice, like

784
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 2: Bose noise canceling headphones. Everybody on there was a traveling comedian,

785
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 2: so it was always on a plane, so like Bo's

786
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,879
Speaker 2: you know, noise canceling headphones. Back in the day, were like, oh,

787
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 2: this is this is luxury a Sonos system right when

788
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,520
Speaker 2: Sonos came out And then I was talking to someone

789
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 2: about it and then they said, oh, yeah, did you

790
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,760
Speaker 2: get the ping pong table? And I was like, wait

Speaker 2: what that's a great gift. Yeah I did not get it.

792
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 2: But also everyone was like when they got it, They're like, oh,

00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 2: this is great. I don't I live in a one

00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 2: Yeah that's so funny. But thank you so much. This

796
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:47,880
Speaker 2: is the most cumbersome gift.

797
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:51,640
Speaker 1: Then just go drop it to your closest state college

798
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: or university. Exactly, or just put it outside because it's

799
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: that's so funny. Yeah, because when I worked for Chelsea,

800
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: our benevolent Overlord, Karen Kilgaroff, our Christmas present that year

801
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: were iPad minis, and I was like, got that. You

802
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: got one. I remember being like, wow, Whitney's really taking

803
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 1: care of us, and they were like, here, guys, these

804
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 1: are custom iPad minis. So I thought by that they

805
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 1: meant like it said Scottie on it, but I just

806
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: searched it, so it was just an iPad mini. It

807
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: was sealed, there was no markings, there's no engravings. And

808
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: then you were like, yeah, they gave me one too,

809
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, well, I guess they just

810
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,400
Speaker 1: bought one thousand of these things. I had that up

811
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 1: until last year. That was my I still have it, eater, Yeah,

812
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 1: I still have it.

813
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 2: I used to let the kids play games on it.

814
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 2: It is now slowed down to the point, thank you

815
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:48,760

Speaker 1: Travel Market Report had this and they're good. This is

831
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 1: written by Daniel Margeritaville McCarthy, who is the best in

832
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,359
Speaker 1: the biz when it comes to foreclosure news, and Times

833
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:59,480
Speaker 1: Square specifically bars that nobody goes to. According to a

834
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 1: reporting real estate news site, The Real Deal. You read

835
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:06,320
Speaker 1: the Real Deal every day, don't you look. It's It's market.

836
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 1: What was the name of this original?

837
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:12,400
Speaker 2: Travel Market Report is first, and then I go to

838
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 2: the Real Deal. Once I've gotten those, I don't read

839
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 2: anything else. I kick a Wall Street Journal to the

840
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 2: curb after that.

841
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,799
Speaker 1: Don't need it, don't need the old gray lady, none

842
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:27,320
Speaker 1: of it. The real deal developer of the property, Soho Properties,

843
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: has defaulted on its mezzanine loan. See you and I

844
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: are so dumb. What is a mezzanine loan? A mezzanine loan?

845
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,799
Speaker 1: I feel like that finance and stuff just they just

846
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: invent terms and create new rules as they get all

847
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 1: the time. Or we're so dumb and everybody's screaming at

848
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:50,120
Speaker 1: their car right now, going everybody knows what that is,

849
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 1: you idiot, dude, This is insane. Okay, here it is.

850
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 2: In finance, mezzanine capital is any subordinated debt or preferred

851
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 2: equity in instrument that represents a claim on a company's assets,

852
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,400
Speaker 2: which is senior only to that of the common chairs.

853
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know what any of that means.

854
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter, We'll never understand it. We are owned, okay,

855
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,799
Speaker 1: society owns us. Anyways, they defaulted on that mezzanine loan

856
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,080
Speaker 1: that we know so much about. The loan lender, art

857
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 1: In Group is now trying to force the sale of

858
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 1: the property. So they're going to sell Margerita Villentimes Square

859
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 1: crazy or you and I even got to spend a

860
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 1: night there. I know, I wanted to go so bad.

861
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:32,319
Speaker 2: Also, what it's so insane that these companies are just

862
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 2: defaulting on loans. They're just like let it go, like

863
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 2: it's so crazy.

864
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, no shame, there's no shame anymore. The future of

865
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 1: the property bump bump boom is now in question. In

866
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 1: a statement to TMR that's Travel Market Report for those

867
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 1: of us that read it every day, when I run

868
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: into you at the coffee shop, I like, did you

869
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 1: see TMR this morning? Yeah? TMR.

870
00:46:53,960 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 5: TMIM on Monday morning, spokes but said the current situation

871
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 5: will not impact guests at the hotel.

872
00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 1: Yeah up, sure, morale is great up and down the elevators,

873
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 1: and that it hopes to be open for a long

874
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 1: time to come, so.

875
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:15,720
Speaker 2: Just someone else will own it, but it will still

876
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 2: be a Margaritaville hotel.

877
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: Yes, And when I get to the last paragraph, you

878
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 1: really understand how crazy this location like, there's been a

879
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,360
Speaker 1: lot of stuff going on. Yeah. The COVID pandemic, followed

880
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 1: by rising interest rates, has created a one two punch

881
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 1: that greatly impacted New York City's hotel owners. Obviously it

882
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 1: was built and open during the height of the pandemic,

883
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 1: not the greatest time to open a Margaritaville resort.

884
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 2: But also maybe it is, maybe it is Florida never

885
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:46,319
Speaker 2: shut down during the pandemic, do you know? So if

886
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 2: they were like, we're going to create our own little

887
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 2: slice of Florida right here in the middle of New

888
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 2: York City.

889
00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 1: Maybe that was they thought that was a good idea.

890
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 1: Maybe they did. The current ownership situation will have no

891
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 1: guest impact in Margaritaville looks forward to deliver great resort

892
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 1: and restaurant experiences in Times Square for a long time

893
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: to come. So here, let me tell you about the

894
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: Margheritaville Hotels. For those who can't picture this shangri la

895
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: in the middle otherwise urban healthscape. The hotel opened in one,

896
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,760
Speaker 1: debuting with two hundred and thirty four guest rooms, five bars,

897
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 1: and restaurants, an outdoor pool in the heart of Times Square. Wow,

898
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 1: outdoor pool in Times Square? Pretty cool?

899
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:38,120
Speaker 2: Okay, there's five restaurants and bars, so there's there's definitely

900
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:44,320
Speaker 2: a Margaritaville. There's definitely a what Hamburger and Paradise Place.

Speaker 2: landing strip, sure.

907
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 1: And then there's Let's Get Drunken Screw. That's the adults

908
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:16,319
Speaker 1: only one on. Yeah, there we go. That's good. And

909
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:21,359
Speaker 1: then Finn's Finns and this is a good song about

910
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: old men creeping on the prettiest person at a bar.

911
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: Ew oh right, yea, just like the whole time Margerita

912
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 1: Ville experience. Just like the whole Jimmy Buffett experience.

913
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 2: In some ways, look agedly, I have I have a

914
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:39,399
Speaker 2: bit where I make fun of Jimmy Buffett at length.

915
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:41,360
Speaker 1: As I get older.

916
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 2: I'm not saying I ever listen to Jimmy Buffett, but

917
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 2: the retirement community that he has, as far as retirement

918
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 2: communities go, I do think that that retirement community seems

919
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,280
Speaker 2: like better than the other retirement communities out there.

920
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:07,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, people are retiring to it at age fifty. I

921
00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:09,920
Speaker 1: know that everybody is so checked out in society now,

922
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: they're like, just get me to Margaritaville for the next

923
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 1: thirty years, please, lord. That's so funny. The company that

924
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 1: for closed Soho properties is also subject to a lawsuit

925
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:27,000
Speaker 1: from the Garment Center Congregation because they were promised where

926
00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 1: the Margaritaville currently stands a new synagogue on the property.

927
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:35,880
Speaker 1: So they just were like, that's right, that was the

928
00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 1: original news story. So the group issued the developer for

929
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:42,240
Speaker 1: failing to deliver on a new synagogue, which instead became

930
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 1: a Margarita resort with a Hamburger in paradise in the lobby. Man,

931
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: that's so funny. This is amazing.

932
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,240
Speaker 2: So then it what, it just goes to another corporate

933
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 2: entity and then they keep running it as Margaritaville.

934
00:50:55,280 --> 00:51:01,440
Speaker 1: Probably, I mean, I think Margaritaville is like it's like crazy, big, yeah, coffitable.

935
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 1: So I mean, they it would seem so insane that

936
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 1: they would just bail on this smack dab in the middle. Also,

937
00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:08,920
Speaker 1: they really need to capture the ball drop, the New

938
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 1: Year's e ball drop, like everybody should be in that

939
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 1: heated pool. They never cut to a camera in a

940
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 1: heated pool outside. That's the place that said sell that

941
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,560
Speaker 1: ticket for five grand a person. Put twenty five people

942
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 1: in there, save your whole business.

943
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 2: I also, I do think they should convert one of

944
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 2: those restaurants into the synagogue, and.

945
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 1: So you get still his lock.

946
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 2: So it's four restaurants, one synagogue. Margueriteville, New York City.

947
00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: Baby, ooh, that is so good. I love that. Yeah,

948
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:45,960
Speaker 1: come Monday, Temple. But come Monday it'll be all right Temple.

949
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 1: That'll be. I think that's a song by him.

950
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,600
Speaker 2: Come Kosher Hamburger and Paradise.

951
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 1: Kosher Hamburger and paradise, come Monday. I'm looking.

952
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 2: That's why it's Hamburger and paradise, because you can't have

953
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 2: the meat and the cheese together.

954
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 1: It is a song. Come Monday, it'll be all right

955
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 1: Temple and Hamburger joint there kosher. It is a shape.

956
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:08,960
Speaker 1: Do you remember that place where we used to swim

957
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,480
Speaker 1: near Times Square? Everybody did their birthday parties Hotel QT

958
00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:16,560
Speaker 1: or Hotel Q something I think it was. It was

959
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:20,760
Speaker 1: so fun. It was door pool crazy with a swim

960
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,880
Speaker 1: up bar and then like saunas, but it was like

961
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 1: a bar bar.

962
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,719
Speaker 2: So like you would walk in and the pool was

963
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 2: enclosed in a in a plexiglass cube.

964
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 1: And then the bar was up against us.

965
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:34,919
Speaker 2: So it was a real bar that you could as

966
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 2: a person who had clothes on and who was dry,

967
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,960
Speaker 2: order food from or order drinks from. But then on

968
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 2: the other side of the bar was just like a

969
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 2: hole above the water line.

970
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 1: Just right at the water line too, just right at the.

971
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,840
Speaker 2: Water line, and people would just swim up and the

972
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,120
Speaker 2: bartenders are handing drinks back and forth. Then you would

973
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,839
Speaker 2: go and get changed in just the bathroom. You would

974
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:56,440
Speaker 2: get changed.

975
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 1: It was so weird. And then night club on one

976
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,440
Speaker 1: side and a pool on the other. Yeah, it was.

977
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,680
Speaker 2: And then there was it was it's a pool and

978
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 2: the pool wasn't huge. And then it was tiered seating

979
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:14,399
Speaker 2: up to like stadium seating up to a steam room

980
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,360
Speaker 2: in the corner. Saw in a steam room in the corner,

981
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 2: and then just various like showers you could just pull

982
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:24,160
Speaker 2: and water would come down yep, like on a seat

983
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,560
Speaker 2: or on like I think there was a rope swing

984
00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:28,840
Speaker 2: as well or something like you could sit on.

985
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,319
Speaker 1: It was there. It was. We went there quite a

986
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 1: bit for like two years. People do birthday parties there.

987
00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:35,920
Speaker 1: I definitely went on a date or two there, like

00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 1: first date. Not what I expected from Manhattan. It was

992
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,719
Speaker 1: a roads I wrote. I was one of the writers

993
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:53,160
Speaker 1: on the Snookie and Jaywall twenty twelve MTV in Times

994
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,879
Speaker 1: Square New Year's Eve show. Yes, yeah, because Jeff Die

995
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 1: who we had worked with on a show, is a comedian,

996
00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 1: got asked to be one of the co host and

997
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 1: he was like, I want you to be a writer

998
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,600
Speaker 1: on this, and so I got like to write for

999
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 1: Snookie and Jaywell and this thank god, this was before

1000
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 1: zoom and all that. Like we had one conference call.

1001
00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 1: I was in LA. They were all in New York.

1002
00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:11,920
Speaker 1: I was like the only person in LA that was

1003
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:15,360
Speaker 1: hired on and they were like just right, oh no,

1004
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,719
Speaker 1: They said, Scotty, you're just gonna punch up Jeff's stand up,

1005
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 1: like whenever he's on screen hosting, just take his dialogue

1006
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,919
Speaker 1: you've written for him before. I said, sure, this sounds great,

1007
00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 1: and so they sent me the script. And this is

1008
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:29,840
Speaker 1: one thing I want people to pay attention to this

1009
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve. If you watch Seacrest, do you watch

1010
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 1: Anderson Cooper, whoever you watch, all they really do is

1011
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 1: just throw to the next person. Because when I got it,

1012
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,640
Speaker 1: it was just Jeff. It'd be like, thanks Snookie, Thanks

1016
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 1: So all I had to do is punch that up

1017
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 1: and there were no bits, and then you go to

1018

1030
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:31,920

1031
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,560
Speaker 2: to riff, but I can't tell if the drunkenness is

1032
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 2: fake or not.

1033
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,239
Speaker 1: And they're now they're like being all uptight about that.

1034
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:41,160
Speaker 1: Like let them ye, like just say these are adults

1035
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,640
Speaker 1: and then let them do whatever they want. And if

1036
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 1: they say something that's career ending and their career, that's fine.

1037
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: If you're gonna drink on live television, you're an adult. Yeah,

1038
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:53,560
Speaker 1: I to own up to it.

1039
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:57,359
Speaker 2: All right, I'll tease this out of this one, Yeah,

1044
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 1: fun little podcast we've all grown to like.

1045
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 2: This one's from Cassidy. Thank you Cassidy for sending this

1046
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:24,280
Speaker 2: in hell. Yeah, scientists call for further research into sex

1047
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 2: in space.

1048
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 1: I bet they don the Washington Examiner. What was that, Scotty,

1049
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 1: I was just saying this. We did have a cool

1050
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,360
Speaker 1: theme in this it was just wet, wild and wonderful.

1051
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:41,560
Speaker 1: Scientists just do it. Weird shit. Yeah, more sex and space.

1052
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:43,560
Speaker 1: I think that makes sense. Now we know that aliens

1053
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:44,920
Speaker 1: are real, we might as well know what they're up

1054
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:46,040
Speaker 1: to up there, all right.

1055
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 2: That's Fry Brady Knox in the Washington Examiner, And basically

1056
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,960
Speaker 2: it's just all about the fact that now that commercial

1057
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 2: space travel is coming more online, like they should start

1058
00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:01,000
Speaker 2: studying sex and space, not just to see how people

1059
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:07,120
Speaker 2: are boning, but in case conception happens in space, how

1060
00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 2: would it.

1061
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,400
Speaker 1: Affect That's interesting. Yeah.

1062
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:11,960
Speaker 2: So that's like I was just like, wait, they just

1063
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 2: want to know, like how they're going to bone. No,

1064
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 2: it's just like they should find out about conception.

1065
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 1: People will volunteer for that. Will go to Miami, ask

1066
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: every third person, Yeah, there will be a whole planet.

1067
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:30,480
Speaker 1: NASA wants you to hump in SubOrbit. I'll do it.

1068
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:33,240
Speaker 1: Go to Vegas, walk down the strip, say do you

1069
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:35,720
Speaker 1: want to have sex and zero gravity? Great, we're gonna

1070
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:36,080
Speaker 1: film it.

1071
00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:39,120
Speaker 2: They're like, no, prober, I'm shocked it hasn't happened yet.

1072
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 2: But they say that the reason it hasn't happened yet

1073
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 2: is because every single inch of the space station International

1074
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:48,439
Speaker 2: Space Station has cameras for monitoring, and so they would

1075
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:49,400
Speaker 2: know if someone did it.

1076
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:53,960
Speaker 1: I see, also kind of creepy, but I see. Yeah.

1077
