The 4 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,479 Speaker 1: Sunday Hang with Playing Fuck podcast starts now. 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 2: So I talked about on Friday the fact that I 6 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 2: was going to go to a couple of plays. Solo 7 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 2: weather was awful. I went to go see Denzel Washington 8 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 2: J Gillenhall in Othello. That was an incredible experience, really 9 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 2: cool to see one of the greatest actors of his 10 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 2: generation in Denzel Washington playing the title role in a 11 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 2: Broadway performance in a theater that does not seek that 12 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 2: many people, where you could really experience the incredible talent 13 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: of someone of Denzel Washington's ability. That was really fun. 14 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 2: I wanted to find something to do. I was in 15 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: New York City. Solo weather was awful. I had to 16 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 2: be up super early in the morning, so I don't 17 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 2: want to go out late any for dinner or any 18 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 2: sort of events on Friday or Saturday, because the alarm's 19 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 2: going off at four fifteen in the morning, and so 20 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 2: I knew I had to be up early. I had 21 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 2: to be fresh, I had to be Good on television 22 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 2: for four hours, so I didn't want to do anything late. 23 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 2: I went to a matinee for Athello on Saturday. To 24 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,479 Speaker 2: the extent that any of you have trips coming up, 25 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: I think that is running until mid June. I thought 26 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: it was extraordinary, really impressive. I'm glad that I went. 27 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: But I also went to good Night and Good Luck, 28 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 2: which is George Clooney's play about Edward R. Murrow and 29 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 2: the idea being that media should hold powerful people accountable. 30 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: And it goes back in time, and you guys know, 31 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 2: I'm a history nerd. It goes back in time to 32 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 2: the era of the House on American Activities Committee with 33 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: the junior Senator as he keeps calling him from Wisconsin, 34 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 2: and everything surrounding that entire McCarthy era what was and 35 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: was not communist infiltration in America. And Clooney plays Edward 36 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: are Murrow and the journalists are the story and the 37 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 2: heroes of this entire play. And it goes back to 38 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 2: again nineteen fifties era America with the McCarthy hearings that 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 2: are going on in the Senate and Murrow, George Clooney's 40 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: character plays the nineteen fifties crusading journalist Edward R. Murrow, 41 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: who was trying to stand up to McCarthy and ends 42 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 2: up in a really contentious relationship before eventually McCarthy is 43 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: brought down by some of the overreach of his investigation 44 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: and the CBS news journalists in general are the stars 45 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: of the play, you guys know, making fun of myself. 46 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: I don't like musicals, so I was not gonna go 47 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 2: see any musical, but a Fellow is great, and I 48 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 2: didn't dislike Goodnight and Good Luck. So if some of 49 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 2: you are going on vacation or some of you are 50 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,679 Speaker 2: listening to us on WOO, you're going to be in 51 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 2: New York. I didn't have any issues with the play itself. 52 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: But at the end of the play, as George Clooney 53 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: is delivering a monologue, they start behind him to show 54 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 2: a lot of different media coverage since the nineteen fifties, 55 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: and so they show John F. Kennedy being assassinated. They 56 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 2: show Walter Cronkite reacting to it. If I remember correctly, 57 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 2: they show on up Reagan Berlin wall being torn down, 58 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 2: the nineteen nineties era CNN coverage of the First Gulf War. 59 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: George W. 60 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 2: Bush, Bill Clinton, Monica Lewinsky, all of the things that 61 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 2: the media has covered. And as Clooney is delivering a monologue, 62 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: he is saying that there's a line in the play 63 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 2: where the CBS executive says, well, at some point, what 64 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 2: if there isn't an Edward R. 65 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: Murrow. 66 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 2: They're fighting for what the truth is and they're trying 67 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: to indict both sides. There are clips as the cavalcade 68 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: of imagery continues. There are clips from Fox News, from MSNBC. 69 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: To their credit, they even include the defense of Joe 70 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: Biden's mental acuity as evidence of why you shouldn't trust 71 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 2: the media, and that runs all the way up to 72 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: the present day. Of course, they take shots at Fox 73 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 2: News over dominion and all those different things. Again, it's 74 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 2: sort of a matrix like blanket of television imagery behind 75 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 2: Clooney as he is delivering his closing monologue in the 76 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 2: guise of Edward R. Murrow, and then it ends. The 77 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 2: very final image that you see is of Elon Musk 78 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 2: not tapping his chest and then trying to gesture to 79 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 2: all of the people in the crowd to say thank 80 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: you from the bottom of my heart, which is what 81 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: Musk was trying to do. It does show you the 82 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 2: tapping on the chest. It only shows him doing what 83 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 2: was described in the media as a Nazi salute, And 84 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 2: so it freezes on Musk for the entire theater to see, 85 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 2: and everyone, by and large, at least two thirds seventy 86 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 2: five percent of the audience gasps as if, oh, my goodness, 87 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 2: look at how far America has fallen that Elon Musk 88 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: is doing a Nazi salute on the stay in front 89 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: of all these people. Except it's not true. And we 90 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 2: talked about this back in January. Again, he taps his heart, 91 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 2: and I'll admit, somewhat awkwardly, is trying to salute the 92 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 2: different parts of the arena, as public speakers might do. 93 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 2: But the way they clipped it, they left it with 94 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 2: him giving what they were clearly intending to show to 95 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 2: be a Nazi salute, and the crowd gasped. And I 96 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 2: just found it to be such a fascinating window into 97 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: this sort of New York City liberal mind. And I 98 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 2: would love to talk. I'm sure they won't come on. 99 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 2: I'll have producer Ali invite whoever did the screenwriting for 100 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: the play, whatever you call the playwriting, I guess or 101 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 2: George Clooney himself to try to explain what their intent is, 102 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: because the entire message of the play is be careful 103 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: trusting the media and people in positions of authority, because 104 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 2: they can easily play on your emotions and lead you astray. 105 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: And then the play itself ends with George Clooney's play 106 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 2: insinuating that Elon Musk gave a Nazi salute, which he 107 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 2: didn't actually do, and all of the emotional reaction from 108 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: inside of the play is, oh, my goodness, can you 109 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 2: believe what this awful right wing Elon Musk is doing. 110 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 2: We've allowed an actual Nazi to ascend into some position 111 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: of power. And what I find so incredibly intriguing about 112 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 2: this is, on a beneficial generous reading of this, it's 113 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 2: actually the playwrights ridiculing the vast majority of the audience 114 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: that is watching the play. Because you can make an argument, 115 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: I don't think it's a crazy one, that they're actually satirizing, 116 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,679 Speaker 2: mocking the fact that all of these people think they're 117 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: above being played for fools by the media. You can 118 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 2: make that read, and if they did it, it's somewhat 119 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 2: diabolical and it's lacerating in its penetrating criticism of the 120 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 2: people that think they're the smart ones and that they're 121 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 2: above being played. I don't think they're doing that, but 122 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 2: that's a generous reading of what the intent was by 123 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: showing that Elon Musk image. More likely, I think George 124 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 2: Clooney and all of the other leftists involved in putting 125 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 2: on this play are lighting the entire message of their 126 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: play on fire by using an image that doesn't reflect 127 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 2: what it actually was in an effort to try to 128 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 2: demonstrate how dangerous unchecked government can be. And in actuality, 129 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 2: they did an entire play talking about how great it 130 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 2: is that the media could hold powerful people accountable, and 131 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 2: then at the end of the play they undercut the 132 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 2: entire message of the play by showing that modern media 133 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 2: is actually incapable of giving an honest portrayal and recitation 134 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: of what's truly happening in the country. And the vast 135 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 2: majority of the people in that audience had no earthly 136 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 2: idea what the total context of the Musk salute was, 137 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 2: and I think it's incredibly important to talk about this 138 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 2: and hold them accountable. Elon Musk has responded to the 139 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 2: tweets that I put out I'll share what Elon Musk said, 140 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: but in a larger context, some of you were saying, well, 141 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 2: I don't know why you would pay to go see 142 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 2: a George Clooney play. I do it for the same 143 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 2: reason that I read The New York Times in the 144 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 2: Washington Post every morning. I don't think you strengthen your 145 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: own arguments without confronting the arguments that others are making. 146 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: I am confident that I could make left wing arguments 147 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 2: better than most of left wingers because I study and 148 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 2: read them more. The reason why I make the arguments 149 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,839 Speaker 2: to you every single day is because I'm confident they're 150 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 2: the best arguments. But you can't cover up your ears 151 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 2: and run and hide from popular culture. You have to 152 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 2: engage with it in order to be able to win arguments. 153 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 2: I would argue one reason why left wingers have started 154 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: to do so poorly when they're actually questioned is because 155 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 2: they live in an ecosystem that never challenges the basics 156 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 2: of their opinion, which is why I think Ron DeSantis 157 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 2: wiped the floor with Governor Gavin Newsom of California. If 158 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 2: you remember in the Sean Hannity debate that those guys 159 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: had because Newsom is not used to being pressed because 160 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 2: he lives in a world where the media bathes him 161 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 2: in adulation all the time. Me, many of you, a 162 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 2: lot of us who have sought out our own experiences 163 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 2: to reach the conclusions and the opinions that we have, 164 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: we've had to grapple with and consider left wing opinion 165 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 2: in a way that they never consider right wing opinion. 166 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: So I'm going to open up the phone lines. 167 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 2: But I wanted to share that experience with you because 168 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: if I hadn't gone, I don't know that very many 169 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: people would be talking about something like this at all. 170 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: And I also thought that gasp, that moment when the 171 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 2: audience gasped as if Elon Musk were an actual Nazi, 172 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 2: was so revealing because they buy into things that are 173 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: beyond a shadow of a doubt, not actually remotely true, 174 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 2: and someone like George Clooney profits off it while lecturing 175 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 2: all of us about the importance of. 176 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: Trust and media. 177 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: I just it was such an interesting moment for me 178 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 2: on Friday night when I was watching that play and 179 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 2: I had that moment, that shocking revelation of the Nazi salute, 180 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 2: which wasn't actually a Nazi salute, but I felt like 181 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 2: I might have been the only guy in the entire 182 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: theater who knew the full context of that, and I 183 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: felt like it was so profoundly dishonest by Clooney and 184 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 2: everyone who was involved in the play. 185 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: Sunday hang with Clay and Bucks.

Mark 213 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: has been with me for years, and you know he 214 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: always he's like he was like my mom who made 215 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: sure I did my homework, like I did all the 216 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: reads that I had to do and everything. I mean, 217 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: he was always there. And I said, buddy, you know 218 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: what because I made I made some untoward remarks. I'm 219 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 1: just gonna I made some untoward remarks about ice hockey, 220 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: and Producer Mark was like, how dare you you will 221 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: love it if I take you to if we go 222 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: to a game, and I said, all right, we're going 223 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: to go to a game, and then COVID happened. I mean, 224 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 1: this is like weeks before COVID, right, so it was 225 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: maybe January of twenty twenty or December of twenty twenty, 226 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: or do you know, December of twenty nineteen. So I 227 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: never got to take into the game. And I was 228 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: reminded of this because the team we started talking about 229 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: hockey one day, and so they are going to a 230 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: Rangers game later this week. I mean I can't go 231 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,479 Speaker 1: because I live in Florida now, but Mark Ali and 232 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: h and producer Greg, three of our producers are going 233 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: to a Rangers game, so they will give us the 234 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: full report afterwards. Because I made to promise on the air. 235 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't not send producer Mark, who loves 236 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: loves ice hockey, and then I would talk smack about 237 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 1: ice hockey just to get a rise out of him, 238 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: because it would it would work every time. He loves 239 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: his ice hockey. So Producer Ali, Producer Ali, have you 240 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 1: gone to an ice hockey game before? Is this like 241 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,359 Speaker 1: a first for you or have you it's a too clay. 242 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 2: You've never been to an you've you've never been to 243 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 2: an NHL game? 244 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: No, did she vanish? 245 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 2: Like? 246 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't know where she went. 247 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: But that's staggering to me that you could live in 248 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: New York City as producer Ali was as a single 249 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: woman for many years, and Moby who used to want 250 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 2: to pay. 251 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: Still, I'm pretty sure that the Porcelain Album is just 252 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: about Moby's heartbreak from producer Ali turning him down. I 253 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: don't know totally.

The problem is that is that Knicks 267 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: tickets are insanely super expensive. Yeah, you know, and even 268 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: though the Knicks generally stink and have forever the worst, 269 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: the worst operated managed major sports franchise, I would argue, 270 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: probably in America. 271 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 2: So what's the most you ever spent on a first date? 272 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 2: First date, not like somebody you're dating with. Did you 273 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 2: ever like a three hundred dollars four hundred dollars meal? 274 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 2: Like what like what was the standard average cost and 275 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 2: what was like a high end Like I'm really gonna 276 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 2: try to blow it away here. 277 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: I try.

Some of 280 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: you are gonna say this is gonna sound insane, and 281 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: in parts of the country, you know, like I was 282 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: just in Tucson, and unless you're at the Four Seasons 283 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 1: or something, I don't think you're gonna spend two undred 284 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: dollars a dinner a whole lot of places. But that's 285 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: pretty much for a dinner for two in New York 286 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: City at like a date restaurant table stacks two hundred bucks. 287 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 2: Its alcohol too, right, You're probably having at least wine 288 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: or something like with that. 289 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: But I mean you're not getting out of a restaurant. 290 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 5: You know. 291 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: When I was growing up, it was more like a 292 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: you know, one hundred hundred and twenty, but now table 293 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: stacks two hundred dollars.

If I tried to get rid. 413 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 2: Of any of her shoes, I think she would murder me, 414 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: Like she will get like that T shirt's too old, 415 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw it out.

I'm not 419 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 2: even kidding. I think if I tried to get rid 420 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 2: of any of her shoes. Now, to be fair, she 421 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 2: keeps shoes for a really long time. But the amount 422 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 2: of women fascination with shoes and I never really thought 423 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 2: about it. It actually came up on Fox and Friends 424 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: over the weekend. Our friend Shannon Bream was talking about 425 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 2: the number of pairs of shoes she had, and Shannon 426 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 2: made a comment that I never really thought about before. 427 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 2: She said, unlike other clothes where you can weigh different amounts, 428 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 2: like pretty much, once you're an adult, you wear the 429 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 2: same size shoe for the rest of your life, So 430 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 2: you would have to have a major weight gain in 431 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 2: order to not be able to put on a shoe. 432 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 2: And I've never really thought about it before, but that 433 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 2: actually makes some sense. And I was blown away because 434 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 2: we're in the process, like I said, of moving into 435 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: a new house.

I don't know that there's 443 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 2: anything like it at all. 444 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 1: GG Lloyd from New Braunfels, Texas listens on WOAI, what's 445 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: going on?
