So well, you gotta think smaller, no, 0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:00.600 but I sat Saturday mornings when I leave. But it's 0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:03.639 not about you. I'm starting vacation at nine fifty when 0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:07.199 we go to commercial boom on vacation. Sometimes I feel 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:10.680 like you're on vacation before that, though. Yeah, is that 0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:13.320 that little low low low in the last hour of 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:16.480 the show. I gotta ask because we've talked about this 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:20.200 behind your back, so I just that's nice. Did you 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:22.839 ever did you ever? We ever listening on hold because 0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.240 you know, the setup is we're all in the studio 0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:27.199 and a lot of times Brody is not and he's 0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:30.960 home and he's listening on a bluetooth. So we've we've 0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:35.640 asked ourselves, are wondered. Have you ever fallen asleep accidentally? 0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:42.960 Be honest, No, you've never once during this entire two 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:44.760 and a half years that we've been doing it, because 0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:46.520 I had the TV on. I have the TV on. 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:51.040 I've got usually dogs bothering me. No, I have I 0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.440 watched TV in the background. So I've starting to look 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:55.720 at But while you're on hold, where are you? Are 0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:58.440 you laying down? Are you are you laying horizontal or 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.040 you know, I'm in the den, I'm sitting on a couch. 0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:05.640 I'm answering text messages, I'm watching television, I'm writing jokes. 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:10.359 Uh so you're active. Yeah. When people text in that 0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:13.480 there's a problem with the new Haven station, I interact 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:15.560 with them and I folded onto the new Haven people 0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:18.720 in our tech team. No, I'm constantly working. I'm not 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:21.920 trying to point the accusatory finger. I'm just it crossed 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:24.679 my mind. I'm like, because if it was I was 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:26.840 trying to put myself in your shoes. If it was 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:30.440 me and I had the plantronics in my ear or 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:33.560 some kind of bluetooth, would I'd be like, you know what, 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:35.840 I'm gonna make myself comfortable. I'm gonna lay down and 0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:39.880 do this because no one sees me. Uh all right, 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.959 let me think back, Okay, So I will say to 0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:49.480 you sometime maybe in the summer or early fall of 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:58.280 twenty Yeah, I might have fallen asleep. I might have 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.560 like set the like I might have taken like knowing 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:03.839 because there's a couple of breaks where like we play 0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:07.520 the phone tap, so we go into a commercial break 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:11.480 a song, the phone tap back back back back in 0:03:11.800 --> 0:03:15.919 something like that's there's like twenty minutes roughly where we're 0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:18.880 not on the air. I might have I might have 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.959 snoozed once. Might I might have been so out of it, 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:27.240 probably a Monday, because my week, my my sleep time 0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:30.000 is screwed up during the weekend and then so like 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:32.160 Sunday night, I can't fall asleep, So Monday for me 0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:34.680 is drag ass. So there may have been a time 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:36.400 where I like hit this, I put the like the 0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:39.600 phone on my chest with the alarm. But never but 0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:41.160 that was it. The one time I did it, and 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:43.440 I woke up in a panic because when the alarm one, 0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:45.760 I was like, I was like praying it wasn't like 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:48.600 eleven twelve o'clock at night, like because I was that tired. 0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:50.560 But no, I don't sleep during the show ever. I'll 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:53.160 tell you what I have done on occasion, not on purpose. 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:55.800 Is I've overslept the first few minutes of the show, 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.320 right because there's nothing going on for me in the 0:03:59.880 --> 0:04:02.960 x scepped. When someone texts in like the first five minutes, Hey, 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:05.280 my station's off the air, And if I don't see 0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:08.160 that for a few minutes, then you might wonder, like 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:09.800 why is already getting back to them about that? But 0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:12.200 that hasn't happened very often, But that I a couple 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:15.600 of times I've I've where I was walking the dogs 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:17.240 early in the morning and they took longer than the 0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:19.760 show started, So I've missed the first few minutes of 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:21.760 the show. But I've got the earpiece sense even if 0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:24.000 I'm in front of the computer, I'm still listening. So 0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:27.360 no falling asleep, except at one time I absolutely did 0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:31.479 it must be well you you I got to fall asleep, 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:34.000 and I haven't had one day off in during this 0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:37.000 two and a half years, not one day off. I 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.520 haven't no, no what I'm saying, aside from what we're allotted, 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:42.360 I haven't. I haven't not showed up for work. I've 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:44.440 been in that studio every single day during the pandemic. 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:47.720 You are you, I don't listen. You are the uh not. 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:50.839 We've established you're not the safest person medically health wise. 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:54.880 Were you talking about no, no, no, no, safest, safest 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.520 as far as like avoiding. You know when COVID was 0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:05.040 was was this height. Yeah, So I tend to be 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.360 more precautious, a little more safe, but you aren't. And 0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:11.240 you haven't gotten sick once, and I'm amazed by that 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:14.600 you've managed. I had, I had the flu a couple 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:17.400 of times, uh that I missed. I had a power 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:20.000 outage in my house where I missed the day. Uh 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.520 you know I had, I had no furnace. Knock on wood. 0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:24.800 I don't want to start now, and certainly not while 0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:29.200 I'm going on vacation. Okay, can well Saturday morning into 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:32.600 the ether. I'd like you to come home healthy. To 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:36.320 take a second, let's talk about where you're going, because 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:40.120 I am planning a vacation, possibly this week, but does 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:42.359 not live up to the level of yours. So should 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:44.680 I go? Let me go second, see if I can 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:48.520 top where you're going. What are you going? So on Saturday, 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:52.960 I'm headed to Costa Rica. M that's not a town, right, 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:55.600 that's a country right as it makes it clear. But 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:58.040 that's not like a town in California. Didn't hear about. 0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:01.599 We got these lives at the Marriott, not a sponsor 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:06.400 by the way, Marriott Villa Villas. Yeah, the house. No, 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:09.280 we're standing at the Marriott and we're hanging out, um, 0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:13.120 and we're just exploring black sand beaches. Now it's a 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.080 big story of black sand beaches and Coney Island, Brooklyn. Yeah, 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:18.000 that's a different kind of black sand though that Yes, 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:20.919 I'm talking about the sand that actually is naturally black, 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.600 not not sand that's black because of the dirt and 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:26.960 the pollution and the mufflers land there and the car 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:31.680 parts and then syringes, the syringes. Yeah, so I will 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:34.640 say that that I'm excited to go. Um, I don't 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:35.840 know if we're gonna be doing the a t V 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.760 thing like I did last time where we went off roading. Um, 0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:43.679 which you still trededly. Well, you didn't believe that idea 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:46.200 last time. No, because there's no pictures of you doing it. 0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:48.640 There's only pictures of you sitting in the a TV. 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:51.760 You gotta hold life, dude. When you're going fast like that, 0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:54.599 you need to hold on and grip. There's no time 0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:57.040 for fucking face while we're holding on in gripping to 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:03.200 the handlebars, dude, a TVs. Dude, there's no time for selfies. 0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:05.200 What do you think this is? So I just thought 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:06.880 maybe they had, like, you know, you could rent a 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.119 camera and go pro. You you didn't bring a GoPro 0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:12.200 our tour guide. No. Our tour guide said, all right, 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.720 when we get to the bridge, it's a nice lookout point, 0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:17.120 so we're gonna all sit here and then we'll all 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:19.040 line up the a t v s and you hold 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:21.120 your helmets and and I took those pictures and you 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:23.640 saw them, listen. And I went swimming in the black 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:26.160 sand beach a beautiful but I will not surf. It's 0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:29.440 a big surfing area too, so whatever. So so we're 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:32.520 doing that for first first half and then I'm gonna 0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:38.200 take a flight on Wednesday to go to Carta Hannah, Columbia. Now, 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:41.040 I was told yesterday this morning on the radio that 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:43.840 I was pronouncing it wrong. I was, and pardon me. 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:47.800 I said Cartagenia, UM, which is another beast beach town. 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:51.480 But it's not Cartagenia. It's Carta Hannah, allegedly. So I'm 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:53.560 going to Carta Hannah. And and it's like my buddy's 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:56.520 big birthday, and it's like fifteen of us going, and 0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.520 it's gonna be a ship show because these guys all 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.400 have differnt wants and needs. These guys like smoke cigars 0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:05.960 and like drink like single malt Scotch and whiskeys and 0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:09.080 bourbons and reminisced about the good old days. And then 0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:11.280 then there's other groups of people that want to go out. 0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:13.240 Other people want to go Some people want to go 0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:14.920 to a restaurant and eat. Other people want to go 0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:16.280 to the beach day to want someone want to go 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:19.160 to the pool, Brodie, I don't know what. And then 0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:23.240 then some want to show what currency. Uh it is 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:29.480 the It is the Coasta Rican, It's the Sea cr C. 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:33.920 I forgot the name of it. I forgot Okay, Columbia, Columbia, 0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:35.679 I'm sorry. What Columbia is another one. I don't even 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:37.520 know what that is. Yeah, you want a Columbia too, Yeah, 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:41.599 so you get two different exchanges anyway. So yeah, so 0:08:41.679 --> 0:08:43.920 that's gonna be my vacation and I'm gonna literally take 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:46.400 it right up to the Sunday night when we before 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.839 we have to come back to work. All right, so 0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:57.199 what are you doing? Well? I am possibly jumping in 0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:03.199 my car, yeah, and iving to new Haven, Connecticut, where 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:07.680 the currency is the dollar. By the way, I believe 0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:09.679 it's pronounced new Haven. I used to think it was 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:14.079 New Haven, but it's New Haven, and I may be 0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:19.280 going on a tour, a self guided tour of the 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:23.320 pizza in the third best pizza city in America. Shut up, 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:27.840 I'm very excited about that, like a ball what they 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:29.319 call it a bar tour? What do you mean the 0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:34.280 third best? I mean you think Chicago new Haven? Okay, 0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:37.840 can I say something I better than Chicago? I said Chicago. 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:39.840 I love the deep Dish even though it's not really pizza. 0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.800 I think you're gonna come back and it's going to 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.640 be in second place. I do alright, maybe, alright, alright, 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:48.599 I'm maybe I got all mapped out. I know the 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:50.600 five or six places. What are the spots you're going 0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:52.079 because I we have a lot of listeners in the 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:55.240 New Haven area. Well, I'm definitely gonna do Frank Peppe's, right, 0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:59.160 that's a great spot. You gotta do the Pepster I'm 0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:01.439 gonna do. Now, forget about that. I know the name. 0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.440 It's not Stacy's. I'm gonna probably do Sally's a Pizza, 0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:09.000 Sally's Appease, Modern, Modern, those of the do you hit 0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:12.960 the three right there? What else you got? The pictures 0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:15.160 look fantastic and the reviews on yelp for five out 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:17.680 of five, five out of five, can't go any higher 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:21.920 than that. And the party's and I got it's a party, 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:24.599 it's a parties. It's a party, right, And then I 0:10:24.640 --> 0:10:27.400 got some hotel reservations, and then I was from people 0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:30.280 and I was told, let's see, I gotta go to Modern. 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:34.920 I gotta go to Louisi Cheese Panini, Lenny's Indian Head Seafood, 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:41.160 and Archie Moore's Buffalo Chicken nachos that's from H. J. Strawberry. Okay, 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:45.079 before you get to those, Yeah, after the pizza, you 0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:49.000 gotta go to Louise Lunch to where the birthplace of 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:54.920 the hamburger was The hamburger was arguably born at Louise 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:59.880 Lunch in New Haven, Connecticut. They have these cast iron 0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:06.640 vertical um hamburger makers from the eighteen hundreds, the original 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:11.280 iron fucking things, and they're vertical and like a toaster, 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:13.880 like a pop up toaster oven. They're hard to explain 0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:17.720 because because you've never seen anything like it, and they 0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:20.040 don't make them anymore. Apparently there's like two or three 0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:23.199 of them they have left, and they're the originals. And 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:25.959 if you google it, you know little slices you could 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:30.440 google along Louise Lunch Hamburger Iron you could see them there. 0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:34.079 They are legendary and apparently the this is a place 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:37.640 where you abs a fucking lute need to visit for 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:42.880 your burger. Although I'm hearing controversially they don't have ketchup. 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:46.439 That's the problem for me. If you may want to 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:48.480 be y O on the catch up, bring the hinds 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:50.839 and you do little squirt squirt, but you've gotta go 0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:53.000 to Louis, gotta go to Louise Sorts and I get 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:54.240 back to the hotel. I'm not gonna do it in 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.719 the restaurant. That's wrong. Hey, I gotta call out some 0:11:56.800 --> 0:12:00.240 bad etiquette right now. So very awkward because I went 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.360 on Twitter and I said, Hey, I'm going to at 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:05.880 Sally's a pizza uh and and I may do a 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:09.480 pizza tour. Recommend places that I could stay that are 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:12.600 pet friendly. So I want to bring uh to bring 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:14.920 a couple of dogs, one dog to dog. I've decided 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:19.400 yet I want to bring a dog. So um yeah, well, 0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:20.800 because I can't bring all of them, but I want 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:22.160 to bring I might want to bring the one i'm 0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:24.520 watching for my daughter, my daughter's dog, and bring may 0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:26.160 bring him with me. I can't bring the other two 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:29.040 because my family would freak out. Uh. So I tweeted, 0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:31.960 I said, now I didn't find a Twitter account of Peppie's. 0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:34.599 I don't need it that badly. Whatever, just know that 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.760 you know what what what Pats and Geno's and lou 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:41.400 Malnadi and Gym's is to Philly for stay. I get it. 0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:46.320 That's that's your one two three punch right there. Here's 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.719 the problem. I want to thank the people that responded, 0:12:48.800 --> 0:12:51.800 but you guys have to learn the difference between reply 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:55.959 and reply all on Twitter. So I tweeted at Sally's 0:12:56.440 --> 0:12:59.880 going up to New Haven looking for recommendations for a hotel. 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.000 I thought maybe Sally's would get back to because they've 0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:04.439 tweeted me in the past, right like, oh, we should 0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:06.680 go here or whatever whatever, blah blah blah. So people 0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:08.760 are coming back with great suggestions. But I want to 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:12.800 call out rich Sports Talk who tweeted me and Sally's 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:16.880 you need to go to Peppi's and bar. Don't tweet 0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:20.760 at Sally's about the other places competition. And then Amy 0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:24.599 Joe Fitzgerald, Amy, but thank you Misfits eight thank you, 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:28.079 But she tweeted back best choice for New Aven pizza 0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:31.439 Ernies Pizza is good too, So she said Sallie's is 0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:33.880 the great, but said Ernie's is good too, So just okay, 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:37.040 I just want to because she said Sally's is the best. Misfits, 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:42.679 I want to know. I wants not you. I apologize, 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:44.719 Amy Joe fitz By the way, that is by way, 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:47.439 Amy Joe Fitzgerald, that is a that's a fantastic name. 0:13:47.600 --> 0:13:50.520 I love it. I love that name. Anyway, misfits. That's 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.760 that's by the way, that's misfits, like like the Misfits, 0:13:56.400 --> 0:14:01.040 S s and it's misfits, but it's Missa.

Okay, Now the big reveal from 0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:32.640 last week. Remember I told you that I got my 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:36.240 girlfriend a very controversial gift. Yeah, and you talked about 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:38.520 it very briefly on the air, and then we got 0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:43.240 confused text messages. Uh, most everyone supported you. I'm not 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:44.760 sure how I feel about it. So what did you 0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:49.640 get her? So I basically decided, I'm getting my girlfriend 0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:54.200 a vacuum cleaner for Valentine's Day. Okay. Now, some would 0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:57.160 say that's not a sexy gift. In fact, I couldn't 0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:00.520 think of anything less sexy than a vacu cleaner. And 0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:04.160 it's too practical. And what is a vacuum cleaner? Scream? 0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:09.320 It screams ladies, women clean? Hey, bitch, do the chores 0:17:09.520 --> 0:17:12.520 like like you know, like, which is absolutely uncalled for. 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:14.680 And you know, I'm just telling you that that's what 0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:18.760 that's what a message that some people think that it's said. Right. Okay, however, okay, 0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:21.480 you have to take a step back and understand who 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:24.119 my girlfriend is and what she loves. First of all, 0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:26.600 my girlfriend is a neat freak. She loves cleaning. Every 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:29.520 time I'm calling her on a Friday Saturday, she's always 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:32.639 got the vacuum running, at least I think it's a vacuum, 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:37.159 and she's she's cleaning her house and she's got a 0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:41.920 regular vacuum whatever. Um. I decided to now feed into 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:44.120 one of her favorite hobbies, which is cleaning the house, 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:48.560 and by her a fucking Dyson vacuum, because the Dicon 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:53.160 isn't just a vacuum. It is the Porsche or Porsche 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.920 of vacuums. It is sexy, it is as the day 0:17:57.000 --> 0:18:01.199 is long. It's fun. It may people who normally wouldn't 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:03.359 want a vacuum one a vacuum. It's a really cool 0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:07.160 product they make. Maybe they make several models. You guys 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:11.560 have heard of them before. So I said, hey, home 0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:14.600 Shopping Network, as I'm watching you late night on a 0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:18.399 Saturday night doing nothing, you you Home Shopping Network a 0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:20.560 gift for her. Well, it came on the screen I'm like, 0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:22.919 that's what I gotta get it for the Valentine's Day. 0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:26.520 She would love it. So I fucking called them old school. 0:18:26.920 --> 0:18:29.520 And I haven't done this ever. I never called anything, 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:31.560 even in the eighties and nineties. I've never called the 0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:34.359 home Shopping Network. And I called the Home Shopping Network. 0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:36.600 And I bored her. I bored her at Dyson, and 0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:39.920 you know what, she was smiling from ear to ear. 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:42.640 She loved it. However, I took a lot of ship 0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:47.719 for for buying her that. Well, why did you get 0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:50.639 her last year? I got a washer and try it. No, 0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:55.160 I hop you gotta one of those swippers. I hook 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:58.000 We've been together, so we I hook hook her up 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:03.920 with jewelry here and there, to accessories, jewelry, jewelry, jewelry, jewelry, 0:19:04.280 --> 0:19:09.160 to syllables jewelry. It's not jewelry. Well either way, it's three. 0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:12.800 You know. You could say jewelry jewelry, or you could 0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:17.880 say jewelry, jeweljewelry, jewelry. You can't say jeweler jeweler, though 0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:19.880 they should have made it like what the jeweler makes. 0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:21.800 I get it, but it's not spelled that way. I 0:19:21.840 --> 0:19:25.440 mean jewel they're all they're all Jewish anyway, you know, 0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:30.239 in the city, So it's jew jewelry, that is correct. Well, 0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:32.800 they're not talking about the Diamond District in Manhattan. Diamond 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:38.400 District in Manhattan, that's what I say. It could be jewelry, 0:19:39.080 --> 0:19:42.040 you know whatever. I don't know, so yeah, if I don't, 0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:43.359 I don't know if they still do it because they 0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:45.840 probably have security now. But there was a time I 0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:48.880 don't know. I remember walking through the Diamond District when 0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:51.760 I was looking to buy an engagement ring from my 0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:56.080 my my girlfriend at the time, and the hasid um 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:58.040 and if you don't know what that is, I'm not 0:19:58.040 --> 0:20:00.800 going to spell it, but it's Pussie them. They're the 0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:03.920 the very religious sect of Judy, isn't there wears the 0:20:03.960 --> 0:20:05.480 black coats and the big hats and the beard and 0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:09.760 right uh. They would walk around with briefcases like handcuffed 0:20:09.800 --> 0:20:14.800 to themselves because they had jewelry in them or money cash, 0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:19.080 right so uh. And they would walk alone and then 0:20:19.160 --> 0:20:21.359 they stopped because people a couple of them got jumped 0:20:21.400 --> 0:20:23.480 and it was but you they would because you know, 0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:25.639 you'd go from your one business to another day, like 0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:28.040 the buyers would go to the stores. The store owners 0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:29.920 would go to the bank and and they'd be walking 0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:32.720 around with briefcases like handcuffed like you see in the movies. 0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:35.440 But then I think, like, you know, really bad people, 0:20:35.440 --> 0:20:37.680 I just cut your hand off. Yeah, like they don't. 0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:40.840 They don't. Yeah, so you can't like run buy and 0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:43.320 grab it and run because it's attatched to them. So 0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:45.639 so so yeah. So I I got a jewelry, and 0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:48.560 I have moved in the past or whatever, and this 0:20:48.680 --> 0:20:51.400 time around I also slipped the you know, an accessory 0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:55.520 a little while.
