76 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,000 Yeah. 77 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:13,000 Well, 2023, I have a list of the words that are fashionable or whatever. 78 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,000 You know, or whatever. 79 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,000 You know, the most looked up phrases. 80 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Like, they look this up on this is Wikipedia, which is kind of like Google, but a little bit more in depth. 81 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,000 I think everybody knows what it is. 82 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:30,000 And so, anyhow, English Wikipedia raked in more than 84 billion views this year. 83 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:39,000 According to numbers released Tuesday by the Wikipedia Foundation, the nonprofit behind the free publicity edited online encyclopedia 84 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:44,000 and the most popular article about was ChatGPT. 85 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:49,000 And of course, I mean, to me, that was not a surprise. 86 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,000 Is it a surprise to you, Rob? 87 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,000 No. 88 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:58,000 I mean, the AI chat bot is the most looked up word, and I know why. 89 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:09,000 I mean, not only is it like people doing it for their own whatevers, but it is also for people looking on TikTok and stuff. 90 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,000 I mean, it is just everywhere, and I can understand that. 91 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:21,000 And I mean, you know, so anyhow, since the since its launch just over a year ago, OpenAI's ChatGPT has skyrocketed into the public's consciousness 92 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:28,000 as the technology makes its way into schools, health care, law and even religious sermons. 93 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:36,000 The chat bot had also contributed to growing debates about the promise and potential dangers of generative AI. 94 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,000 And this is true. 95 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,000 AI is warning us about AI. 96 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,000 So anyhow, much as which is documented on its Wikipedia page. 97 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,000 Yeah. 98 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:52,000 You evidently didn't check out that one thing I sent you a while back. 99 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,000 Which one was it? 100 00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:01,000 That was about AI and the book of revelations. 101 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,000 Yeah, I thought you were going to go into it, so I left it alone. 102 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,000 No, no, I just wanted you to listen to it. 103 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,000 I did listen to it. Yeah. No, no, no, no. 104 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,000 That's a scary shit. 105 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000 I didn't say anything because I thought that was your article. 106 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,000 So I left it alone. 107 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,000 No, no, no, no, no. We're not going to talk about that on here. 108 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,000 Okay, that's cool. 109 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,000 No, no, that's deep, dude. That's deep. 110 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:34,000 Okay, well, you know, since its launch just over a year ago, OpenAI's ChatGPT has skyrocketed into the public's consciousness 111 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:39,000 as the technology makes its way into schools, healthcare, and even, I'm repeating this a little bit. 112 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:47,000 The ChatBOK has also contributed to growing debates about the promise and potential dangers of generative AI, 113 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,000 which is documented in the Wikipedia page. 114 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:58,000 The second most read article on Wikipedia in 2023 was the annual list of deaths, which sees high traffic year after year, 115 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:04,000 taking the number four in the number one spots in 2022 and 2021 respectively. 116 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:12,000 Individual entries for notable figures who were passed away also garnered significant interest this year, 117 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:18,000 including pages for Matthew Perry and Lisa Marie Presley, which she did die this year, but it was much earlier. 118 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,000 So a lot of people don't realize that she actually died this year. 119 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,000 They kind of contributed to last year, but it was this year that she died. 120 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:33,000 Meanwhile, the highly anticipated 2023 Cricket World Cup took third place alongside three other cricket related entries 121 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:39,000 in Wikipedia's top 25 articles this year, including the Indian Premier League at number four, 122 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:50,000 marking the first time cricket content has been made, has made the list since the Wikipedia Foundation started tracking in 2015. 123 00:08:50,000 --> 00:09:03,000 So there you go. That's a pretty good little insight onto what the public's thinking and what they're looking for and what they, you know. 124 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:07,000 So I thought that was pretty informative and I thought I'd pass it on. 125 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:17,000 A little bit different news. McDonald's is trying to find new ways to get into the market, OK? 126 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:23,000 McDonald's has kind of been hurting because the Millennials and the Gen Z's just aren't as into it as we were. 127 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:28,000 You know, we were into the Big Mac. We remember the Whopper Big Mac Wars of the 80s. 128 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:35,000 Then Wendy's came out and they kind of took the crown for a while with their square burger and it was thick and it was like a real burger. 129 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:40,000 It wasn't this little bitty thing. Burger King did with the... Go ahead. 130 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000 Back when they actually weighed a quarter pound. 131 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,000 Burger King's Whopper used to be one of the best burgers on the market hands down. 132 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,000 I mean it was a thick patty. It was charbroiled. 133 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,000 Oh my God. Yeah, that was my all time favorite burger of the Whopper. 134 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:02,000 But it's not the same anymore to me just like the McDonald's hamburger. The quality consistency is not there. 135 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:11,000 If I went to a Burger King to me, and to me this is my opinion, if I go to 10 Burger Kings in 10 days in a row, 136 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:17,000 I might get one close to what it used to be. I might. 137 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:24,000 But it won't be the same portions, the same lettuce, the same pickles, onions, tomatoes. It won't be the same. 138 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,000 But it'll be a lot better than the rest of them. But the rest of them will just be garbage. 139 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:33,000 In the same way with McDonald's and even Wendy's isn't what it used to be. 140 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:39,000 I had a completely gross meal at Wendy's which I just... I could not eat. It was so bad. 141 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:47,000 In my opinion, you have people that don't care, slopping crap on the stuff that they don't give a shit about, 142 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:52,000 and people that they hate when they come through the drive-thru. It's just pretty much... you can see it on their face. 143 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:58,000 They're like, oh fuck, look at this fucking asshole ordering this and let's see, it's 10 minutes until closing. Fuck this guy. 144 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:09,000 So, yeah, you know, so anyhow, so McDonald's is trying to stay ahead of everybody in the market. 145 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,000 So, you know, as it looks ahead, McDonald's is planning new types of locations. 146 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:23,000 They're called COSMACs, C-O-S-M-C-A-P-S, and other opportunities for small format stores. 147 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:33,000 Looking at its presence in the U.S. more broadly, our footprint reflects that the population looks like probably 20 to 30 years ago, said Kozinski. 148 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Kozinski is a representative talking about this. 149 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:43,000 There's a number of places around the U.S. where it's significantly underdeveloped relative to the population. 150 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:53,000 And what these COSMACs do is they're designed to be a very small store and a very high volume output. 151 00:11:53,000 --> 00:12:00,000 And you know how Subway's broken to the market because they were into every strip mall in America virtually? 152 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,000 Yeah. 153 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:10,000 This is what they're talking about. You could be walking down a strip mall and, okay, there is a vacuum place, sells vacuum small appliances. 154 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,000 There is a dime store. 155 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,000 There is, I don't know, a music shop. 156 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,000 And then right in the middle of that is a little McDonald's. That's unheard of. 157 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:31,000 That's what they're trying to do with these COSMACs is make them small, concentrated little places that they can put virtually anywhere. 158 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:38,000 So I think what they're figuring out is like these places on the corner where they've searched for for years and bought the property. 159 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,000 Some of these properties they knew were going to be developed. 160 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:50,000 They bought them 20 years ago and simply didn't put a McDonald's there until the population suited what they wanted for volume. 161 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,000 Did you know that? 162 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,000 Wow. No, I did not know that. 163 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:59,000 Yes. A lot of these corporations, they bought this property 20 years ago. 164 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,000 Like, okay, you know this area, so a lot of people listening to this podcast will not. 165 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:10,000 Lee's Summit. Lee's Summit has exploded in growth. Odell and Park has exploded in growth. 166 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:19,000 So they knew these places were primed for development and primed for the explosive, you know, everyone wants to move their type of thing. 167 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:25,000 You know, that's the place to be. That's the suburb life, you know, the 2.1 kids. 168 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,000 They jump in before everybody else does and they're ready to go. 169 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:36,000 And they buy the primo property and they hold on to it and hold on to it and hold on to it and then finally, bam, and they simply use it as a write-off. 170 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:44,000 I think is what happens in my opinion. It looks to me like, oh, we lost money on this investment, you know, and then all of a sudden 20 years later it's like, well, we're going to build a store on there. 171 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,000 Go ahead. What? 172 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:53,000 Well, and that's the other thing. You buy it that far ahead of time, you buy it a lot cheaper. 173 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,000 Yes. That is the other thing. 174 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,000 Before everything's developed. Yeah, so they're making money on it. 175 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:07,000 Oh, yeah. And if things go south, if things go south, they just sell the property for 10 times what it was worth and they're still gold. 176 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,000 Yeah. 177 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:16,000 So, anyhow, yeah, I mean, I think it's the way that they have to go. 178 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:25,000 And I mean, I think once again, McDonald's is trying to stay ahead of the curb. Look at how many generations McDonald's has expanded. 179 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:29,000 I mean, just kept going and kept going. It looked like they couldn't get any bigger. 180 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,000 It looked like they couldn't do any more. And they looked like they were dead in the water. 181 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:39,000 And every time they figured out, they figure out the market and they come back and they're unscathed. 182 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:45,000 They're still a huge corporation. They still sell billions and billions of burgers a year, you know. 183 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:52,000 And this is part of their thinking that has developed that, you know, that has brought them the success. 184 00:14:52,000 --> 00:15:01,000 So, anyhow, I've got another story that I want to go into here. 185 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,000 All right. OK, what it is is how to get rid of unwanted guests. 186 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:12,000 I know this is kind of a weird segue. 187 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,000 This sounds like one of our segments. 188 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:19,000 It really is. They said it on the news this morning. 189 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,000 And they would come up with the shit we would. 190 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,000 Well, you'll see. OK. 191 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,000 Oh! 192 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:33,000 OK. OK. So, you know, since it's holiday season, right? 193 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,000 Yeah. 194 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:40,000 OK. A lot of people have their family over. And a lot of times, family and friends don't know when to leave. 195 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:46,000 Right. They just linger and linger. Oh, man, I wish they would leave. 196 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:53,000 What the hell? You know, and people are too nice usually to go, well, you know what? 197 00:15:53,000 --> 00:16:00,000 We leave. You know, just go. I mean, I'm sorry. Love you. But you got to go. OK. 198 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:06,000 So they just wait and they wait and they wait. And then, you know, and it sucks. 199 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:17,000 So anyhow, here are some suggestions that some of the top, I guess, psychological, psychologists or whatever come up with. 200 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:23,000 How to get rid of guests properly. Not the way that we're going to tell them, of course. 201 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:33,000 Yeah. But OK. One of the best ways is, you know, you're all sitting there yawning and stuff and nobody really gets to get the hint because you're yawning and everything. 202 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:40,000 They're still sitting there talking. Turn the conversation to the next day. 203 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,000 They say that's a good way because all of a sudden it turns it from today. 204 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:51,000 You're pretty much what you're saying without saying is, OK, today's over. What's going on tomorrow? Right. 205 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:58,000 OK, I understand that. I've done that. Yeah, I think we all have. And sometimes that doesn't work. Yeah. 206 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:09,000 Sometimes it don't. Yeah. The next thing they say that you could do is be honest and ask them to leave. 207 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:18,000 But, I mean, you know, you got to watch how you do that because some people take it personally and then they're like, you know, we're never coming back, man. 208 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,000 I don't like the way they kicked us out. You know, I've heard that shit before. 209 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,000 And it's like, no, maybe they were just tired and they wanted to go to bed and you wouldn't get the hint. 210 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:36,000 You know, so yeah. And then for the next year, you got to listen to grandma complain about every time she talks to great Aunt Betty, how you can. 211 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:46,000 Yes, yes. Yeah. And it's like this undertone for the whole year. Yeah. You know, yeah. 212 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:52,000 You know Robin, his new wife did. You got to be careful. Yeah, they could. It's like walking on eggshells. 213 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:58,000 They kicked Bernice out. What? Yeah. Yeah, I got what you mean. 214 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:09,000 So the next thing is if you have people staying for an extended period of time, you make self time with weekend guests. 215 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Like if they're staying for a few days or whatever, what you do is you go, all right, I got to do this. 216 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,000 And you don't invite anybody like a walk or something. And this is your time. 217 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,000 You know, this is time that you get away from everybody because we all need that. 218 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:31,000 You can love someone to death and just need to be away from them for a little bit. Right. I do that with my kids. 219 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:40,000 I think everybody does or has. So, yeah. And that was the best suggestions they have. 220 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:57,000 So, well, you know, we had to come up with our own. Jeffy X. Jeffy X came up with some new ones that he thought were ones that might have done well. 221 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:07,000 And like I said, you know, you've embroidered his underwear with the special Steven Pearcey pouch on the front where he can fill in full all he wants. 222 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:16,000 He's got a lot of things coming. I'm buying him a bunch of hookers and I don't know, cocaine or weed or whatever, whatever he wants. 223 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:25,000 Well, in the state of Missouri, weed is legal. Yes, yes. But cocaine is not. Just to make that clear. 224 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:32,000 So, it's probably going to be weed. It'll be weed. It won't be cocaine because I don't believe in doing anything illegal. 225 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:40,000 So, no, no. So anyhow, and what else were you embroidering, Jeffy X? 226 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:45,000 Oh, shit. You came up with something. I'm still not even doing my whole wardrobe. 227 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:55,000 Okay, great. I think you need to make him a Sergeant Pepper outfit. Oh, no, no. It was the flying suit. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah. 228 00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:04,000 I'm going to work on that this weekend. Okay. It's like the suits the guys wear and they fly through the air. 229 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:13,000 I want him to have a Sergeant Pepper. It's going to have a big X going across the back of it. It's going to be cool. 230 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:20,000 Oh, he'll love that. He will wear that everywhere. Yes, he will. He is quite fashionable, Jeffy X's, and he would love that. 231 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:34,000 So, anyhow, I want him to have a Sergeant Pepper outfit. That would be cool. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, with like the little tassels on the shoulders and the wide and the stripes on the pants. 232 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:42,000 Yeah, he'd look fantastic. Well, we'll see how much spare time I get. I might be able to work on that too. 233 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:52,000 Well, these are Jeffy X's top suggestions. I don't know if he got these from somewhere or not because he just sent me a blanket email. 234 00:20:52,000 --> 00:21:03,000 He didn't say in 10 minutes they're going to go away or nothing. So I think these are just suggestions from Jeffy X and not actually something that he had to physically steal from somewhere. 235 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:13,000 Right. Okay. His first suggestion is, is I'm very gassy. You guys really don't want to be here. 236 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:24,000 I think I'd leave. I like it. Yeah, you'd be like, what? Yeah, I am extremely gassy right now. I just went to the bathroom and it's not going away. 237 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:34,000 If I were you, I would leave because this room is going to smell horrible and you're going to want to vomit. So if I were you, I would just leave right now. Just give me a fair warning. 238 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:45,000 And any smart. That's actually pretty respectable. Yeah. Or I mean, you know, you could get some, well, you don't want to do this because this is your home, but you could get some liquid ass. 239 00:21:45,000 --> 00:22:01,000 But then then your whole house would smell like shit. So horrible, horrible shit. So probably not. Or get you a golden lab pup. Oh, yeah. 240 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:14,000 Oh, yeah. More issues. Oh, no, it's getting better. Just every now and then she still goes in the house. But that dog shit stinks. 241 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:30,000 That would work, too. Well, Jeffy X's next suggestion is is you say I strip every night at this time. Be right back. 242 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:40,000 That would be a pretty good little thing. Yeah, you know, so well, they're well, they're, you know, you're going to go to the bathroom to like take off said clothes, right? 243 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:46,000 And probably put them away that circuit to get the fuck out of there. Right. 244 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:53,000 And then when you then you can act like a friend and go, what you guys don't want. I don't understand it, man. It's natural. 245 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:58,000 I don't understand why you guys don't want to see me naked. It really hurts my feelings. 246 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,000 And then you're the victim. 247 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:15,000 Next one. Better yet, better yet. Don't say nothing. Just start getting naked. Oh, this is my time. Yeah. 248 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:23,000 Look, if you guys want to be here, this is what happens this time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're after hours now. Yeah. 249 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:32,000 Yeah. You're on my team. So put up with it, bitch. Yeah. OK. The next one is you can start yodeling uncontrollably really loud. 250 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:44,000 That would make me leave really quick. Oh, yeah. Who the fuck wants to hear anyone yodel uncontrollably for hours? Oh, yeah. 251 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:49,000 Yeah. So I think that might be a very stellar suggestion myself. 252 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:57,000 That brings back nightmares. You can sound like the guy off the Price is Right on the cliff. 253 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:02,000 The cliffhanger game. Oh, dude, dude. 254 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:11,000 You just happen to mention the Price is Right. The Price is Right is my next story. Oh, OK. All right. 255 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:16,000 Well, after we get done with this. Wow. How do you do that, dude? 256 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:22,000 That is a great segue. So everyone remember I talk about the Price is Right and what's Rob Ragh going to do next? 257 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:27,000 He's going to have a Price is Right story. Yeah. It's a Price is Right story. 258 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:37,000 This is why this podcast hits so deep, right? Hard-hitting journalism like that. 259 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:44,000 And we have not spoken since last night. We had no idea about this. 260 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:50,000 That's right. I am going to go ahead and sprain a muscle, patting ourselves on the back. 261 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:57,000 Oh, oh, oh. I'm doing it. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, actually, I'm going to keep doing that. That feels good. 262 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:02,000 Yeah. I did get a massage today, so I am a little bit limber. So, you know, it is good. 263 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:10,000 Fuck you. OK, sorry. A very well-earned massage. I'll work with you all day, OK? 264 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:19,000 Rob, you realize I did that. You realize I did construction for 37, 36, 37 years, right? 265 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:26,000 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you did. I sympathize with you. I know. OK, next one. 266 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:35,000 Grab a socket wrench and threaten them with it. Yeah. I think I'd take that hint, wouldn't you? 267 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:41,000 Yeah. Come at you with a socket wrench. Get the fuck out of here. Get the fuck out of here. OK, OK. No problem. 268 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:48,000 See that door? I am getting ready to go through it. Put down that wrench. Put down that wrench. I am gone. Hands up. 269 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,000 Yeah, yeah. You come at anybody with anything and they will back down real quick. 270 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:57,000 A socket wrench. I am pretty sure you have been busted with a socket wrench before, right? 271 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,000 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Whether you did it yourself or someone else did it to you, fucking hurts. 272 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:08,000 No, actually I think it was my dad. Yeah, I remember one time I left a fucking monkey wrench. 273 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:15,000 It was probably because I am now gone. I left a monkey wrench or a crescent wrench or whatever you want to call it. 274 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:22,000 The adjustable wrench. I left it in the yard. I was working on my bike and my dad ran it over with a lawn mower. 275 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,000 Oh, shit, dude. It fucked up the blades and I was getting ready to walk in the house. 276 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:31,000 All of a sudden I get a BAM across the back of my head with that fucking wrench. 277 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:36,000 I am like, oh, fuck. What the hell? Only I didn't say fuck because I know I have been in more trouble. 278 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:42,000 And I look at it and it is all chewed up and the mower is over there and he fucking hit it. 279 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:50,000 I told you to pick that up and I am like, OK, OK, I am sorry. 280 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:56,000 Good times. Good times. No wonder I am so warped. It is not my fault. 281 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:04,000 Oh, yeah, yeah. You just said that. I just shot about a couple more memories. 282 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:10,000 A couple more memories. Yep. And then whenever my dad did that, it brings back terms of endearment. 283 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:17,000 Because, I mean, it is like, look, he did this because he loved me and didn't want me to be a stupid ass. Right? 284 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:26,000 Yeah. If he didn't love me, he would be smoking dope with me and trying to be a cool guy. 285 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:32,000 But because he loved me, he did stuff like that. He made me not like him regularly. 286 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:43,000 So, anyhow. So, the next one is turn up handsome music really loud. That will do it. 287 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:48,000 That might be the best suggestion. Here, mmm bop. Ten times. 288 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,000 Oh, that would be awesome. 289 00:27:51,000 --> 00:28:00,000 Oh, yeah. Mmm bop. Da da da. Mmm bop. Da da da. Mmm bop. Da da da. Right? Right? 290 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,000 Am I right or am I right? OK. All right. Next. 291 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:17,000 No, no, you're right on that. I've unfortunately had to see them in concert with somebody else. 292 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:27,000 Oh, well. You know what? Let's just move right along. How's that? 293 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,000 Yeah, let's do that. OK. 294 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:39,000 Next thing you can do is turn on a marathon of Will and Grace and play it really loud. 295 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,000 That would do it. That would do it. 296 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,000 Yeah. 297 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:50,000 Next thing you can do, and this is all from Jeffy X, our genius, our resident genius. 298 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,000 Yeah, these are good suggestions, Jeffy. Really. 299 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,000 They really are. 300 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:02,000 Next thing you can do is put a fan in the back of your work boots and aim them at the guests. 301 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,000 That'll do it. 302 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,000 That would work. 303 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:12,000 That will work. Oh my God.

Garlic mustard 409 00:34:54,080 --> 00:35:00,560 is plentiful everywhere. It is actually an invasive weed, but it can be very delicious 410 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:09,080 and easily taken from about any pasture. Garlic mustard can be stewed or even pan-fried for 411 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:14,800 delicious taste. It can also be added to other ingredients, whether it is a salad or any 412 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:20,680 other type of food to enhance it. Garlic mustard should be a go-to staple during the apocalypse. 413 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:27,320 Somewhere in the heavens your great-grandma Gertrude is crying because her little Bevo 414 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:33,440 is listening to this film. 415 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:39,680 And now, deep thoughts with Mark. 416 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:46,960 Should I throw away all my socks, then only buy 30 pair of one kind of sock?

And I'm Rob. 419 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,960 Alright, Rob, you got anything you want to get to? 420 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:33,040 Yeah, I still need to get to my Price is Right story. 421 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:34,040 The floor is yours. 422 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:40,040 Okay, and I found this on Do You Remember? 423 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,040 Okay. 424 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:50,040 The first card Bob Barker gave away on The Price is Right was one of the worst. The Price 425 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:57,080 is Right holds the record as the longest-running game show in TV history and initially ran 426 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:09,760 from 1956 to 1965 until its revival in 1972 with new host Bob Barker. The show is known 427 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:16,760 to put smiles on the participants' faces with high ticket prizes like vacations and 428 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:28,760 cars, which were not always perfect. The first card Bob gave away was a shitty Vega. 429 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:39,760 The episode was not up to par despite its appearances on other game shows like Settled 430 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:49,760 the Century. The Vega had manufacturing issues, including aluminum engine subsequent to melting 431 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:58,760 high heat. The car also had overheating issues with frequently blown engines, making only 432 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:04,760 worse by automotive strikes taking place at the debut. 433 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,760 I knew someone that owned a Vega. They were pieces of trash. 434 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:12,760 They were, but all my friends turned them into hot rods. 435 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:19,760 Well, yeah, you can do that. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, that's true. And a lot of people 436 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:20,760 did. 437 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,760 Yeah. Yeah. 438 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:36,760 Okay. There's this story, and this is on TikTok, and it's about a lady that bought a pizza 439 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:45,760 at $7.59 at a local pizza joint, right? And it was a chicken Parmesan pizza. And they 440 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:52,760 were so pissed off that she ordered one that close to closing that anyhow, they put everything 441 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:58,760 on it they're supposed to. Only the chicken, they put bone-in chicken wings on top of it. 442 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:03,760 And she went to TikTok and showed everybody it while she was still in the store and said, 443 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:09,760 look at what I just got from these guys. It went viral and it had over 300,000 hits the 444 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:15,760 last I knew. And anyhow, the pizza place, the people in there, I think were all fired. 445 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:20,760 But they did that as retaliatory because she came in at 8.59 and they close at eight o'clock 446 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:26,760 or 7.59 and they close at eight o'clock. And they did that on purpose instead of putting 447 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:31,760 in, you know, chunks of chicken like they're supposed to. They put full bone-in wings on 448 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:37,760 top of it. And the lady opened up the box right there and then she started filming with 449 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:42,760 her phone and said, look, this is what these fuckers do when you order a minute till they 450 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:49,760 close. And she showed like the full chicken wings sitting on top of the pizza. And I thought 451 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:55,760 that was interesting. Yeah. So yeah. Yeah. I mean, look, I mean, I understand people 452 00:39:55,760 --> 00:40:00,760 getting mad, but I mean, man, we used to know this working at working at restaurants like 453 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,760 the Jackson Jim's, Jack stack was no different. People came in late. You had to treat them 454 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:09,760 the same. And if you didn't, you were in trouble. Right. Yeah. I mean, that's just the way it 455 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:15,760 is. Or the people that would linger and you couldn't close till they left, which was more 456 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:21,760 of a problem. So anyhow, it's just, it's just the nature of the business. And if you don't 457 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:29,760 like it, you don't work in it, I guess. Right. So, right. Hey, yeah. Yeah. Can I have a look 458 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:36,760 again? Yes, absolutely. I just went across a story from today that I'm just now hearing 459 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:47,760 about it. Okay. And this is on the Associated Press. Okay. Norman year, Norman Lear, the 460 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:54,760 writer, director and producer. It was like a 101 or something. 102. 101, 102, something 461 00:40:54,760 --> 00:41:04,760 like that. Really? 101. Okay. Writer, director, and producer who revolutionized primetime television 462 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:12,760 that only the Fallen and the Family, and Jefferson and Maude, propelling political and social 463 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:25,760 turmoil into the once insulated world of TV sitcoms, has died. He was 101. Okay. Since, 464 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:30,760 yeah, I knew he was really old and I was surprised. I looked at the list of people much younger 465 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:35,760 than him that he had on his shows that are all dead. Yeah. It's kind of hard to believe 466 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:42,760 that he was still alive. Lear died Tuesday night in his sleep, slain by family in his 467 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:48,760 home in Los Angeles. He must have been sick then. Huh? He must have been sick if he was 468 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:56,760 surrounded by family. Yeah. Wow. Okay. What was it? Just a couple years ago, they were 469 00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:07,760 bringing back, on primetime TV, they would have remakes of these shows, but it was like 470 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:14,760 live plays. Yes, and I did not like them. I didn't think it was up to par because the 471 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:20,760 talent wasn't there, in my opinion. Yeah, the talent was, well, also- You'll never get 472 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:25,760 another Carol O'Connor. They were both too live, you know. Well, there's the other thing 473 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:29,760 too, but I think of his better talent, I think they would have done a better live, actually, 474 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:34,760 in my opinion. Yeah. I mean, you'll never find another Carol O'Connor, and I forgot 475 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:43,760 who- No, it ain't no- I forgot who Edith, what the hell was- Shit. She was just phenomenal. 476 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:51,760 Oh, you could have been her. You had to be a special person to play that part. Yeah. 477 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:56,760 I mean, all of that, I mean, it was just groundbreaking, everything that they did, but not only was 478 00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:01,760 it groundbreaking, there was a lot of truth embedded in it, and it was funny. It was really 479 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:06,760 funny, and it was a really good parody of what was actually going on in America. In 480 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:12,760 the time, in that time period. You had the conservative Republican dad, and you had the 481 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:17,760 liberal beatnik son that's married to his precious daughter, and he had long hair, and 482 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:23,760 he was like, hey, man. Which, by the way, has a new podcast of his own. Oh, I don't like 483 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:33,760 the guy. I think he's a fucking idiot, but okay. No, it's about who killed JFK. I might 484 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,760 be able to listen to it, but I don't know if I really think he's a credible anything, 485 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:42,760 but anyhow. Okay, you know what? I might listen to one of them and see what he has to say. 486 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:49,760 That's what it's called, who killed JFK. Oh, okay. I might just check into that then. Cool. 487 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:54,760 That's him and sudden doubt. The truth is, is there's so many podcasts out. I really, 488 00:43:54,760 --> 00:44:03,760 I mean, gosh, I really like, I don't know. Yeah, anyhow. To be honest, the main one I 489 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:09,760 listen to is ours, but then there is another one I listen to a little bit. Oh, okay, what 490 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:20,760 is it? It's, you just caught me on. I can't think of the name of it all. Oh, well, that's 491 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:24,760 okay. You know what? I mean, if they want to promote us, we could say their name too, 492 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:31,760 but whatever. It doesn't matter. Oh, no, they won't. Okay, then let's take our second break 493 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:36,760 and I'm going to come back with a kiss story. Does that sound okay? Oh, sounds good. Okay, 494 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:44,760 we'll talk to you guys here in a minute. Next up, Kings of the Heard in Hell. Hurry up. 495 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:51,760 King Jung Un is playing Santa at the mall again this year. Yay. And now, Deep Thoughts 496 00:44:51,760 --> 00:45:08,760 with Mark. Is a Pop-Tart a ravioli or is it a sandwich? I may never know. 497 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:32,760 Please enjoy Brick Shithouse Energy Drink responsibly. It's not readily available anywhere, 498 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:39,760 because of liability issues. Two douchebags and a microphone, says. You ever dream about 499 00:45:39,760 --> 00:46:06,760 eating chocolate pudding and wake up with a spoon in your ass? Just asking. Two douchebags 500 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:14,760 and a microphone. My name is Mark. And I'm Rob. Okay, like I promised a little bit ago, 501 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:21,760 I have a kiss story here. And this is about what Paul Stanley considers one of their biggest 502 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:28,760 screw jobs ever of getting screwed and misled. Doc McGee has revealed how kiss was, in Paul 503 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:35,760 Stanley's words, screwed over and misled during their appearance on the 2014 Macy's Thanksgiving 504 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:51,760 Day Parade. Stanley made those comments on Twitter shortly after the nationally televised 505 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:58,760 event, which found kiss performing on a stripped down float that was a far cry from their usual 506 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:04,760 bombastic stage presentations. Stanley said we all deserve better, without going into 507 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:10,760 details about what went wrong. Five years later, their band manager filed, er, he didn't 508 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:18,760 file, he filled in the missing puzzle pieces during a Q&A session aboard the annual kiss 509 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:24,760 cruise. The worst thing we did was we played the Macy's Day Parade, McGee said. We were 510 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:29,760 supposed to be on the Gibson float, which was this huge float, so it was great. It was 511 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:37,760 just like kiss, well, you know, what kiss is accustomed to, big and elaborate and a huge 512 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:42,760 stage. Well, the night before we found out that they wanted Paul to play a Gibson guitar, 513 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:50,760 and he doesn't play Gibson's, he plays Washburn's, and that's what his, you know, that's his 514 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:57,760 endorsement, is Washburn guitars. So we couldn't go on the float, and they said, oh, okay, 515 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,760 we have another float for you, so they're thinking they're, you know, that the float 516 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:08,760 is going to be comparable to the Gibson float, right? Well, problem solved, right? Wrong. 517 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:13,760 So we get there, and the new float is literally like 25 feet long, with two microphones on 518 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:18,760 it. We looked like, it looked like the shittiest thing on the Macy's Day Parade. When I saw 519 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:23,760 it, I went, oh, this is how you get fired. That was just a horrible time. Stanley revisited 520 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:29,760 the incident in a November 2020 tweet, which included the above photos, which if you saw 521 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:37,760 it, you would be laughing. Anyhow, it went from being surrounded by a hundred baton twirlers 522 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:50,760 and in kiss makeup and escorts and lights and pyro and fog machines into basically like 523 00:48:50,760 --> 00:49:00,760 a couple of mic stands and just a glorified flatbed truck. Or actually really like a trailer. 524 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:08,760 Like a trailer that you would almost put mowers on. Yeah. Yeah, so anyhow, and just because 525 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:13,760 he didn't play a Gibson and he couldn't by contract, he didn't say that in the actual 526 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:19,760 article, but I know that he endorsed Washburn guitars, because that's one of his famous 527 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:29,760 guitars. The shattered guitar, I believe, was a Washburn. And anyhow, so that kind of 528 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:36,760 went awry there. So Rob, do you have something you want to get to? 529 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:46,760 Actually, I could do a whole show on this. Okay. We're not going there tonight because 530 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,760 I did one last night. Well, let's go ahead and close out the show with one more thing 531 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:58,760 here and then we'll be done. Okay. A giant tumble... What? What'd you say? I said alright. 532 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:04,760 Okay. A giant tumbleweed roughly the size of a Volkswagen Beetle was spotted hurdling 533 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:09,760 its way down a four lane road in California this week. The jaunty brown bundle of brush 534 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:15,760 was captured on video and posted on Tuesdays X, formerly known as Twitter, where it has 535 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:21,760 gathered a number of fans who have compared it to a giant hairball, belly-lint Gone Wild. 536 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:29,760 All the critters from the... from the... the named the, you know, the critters horror show, 537 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:35,760 1986 sci-fi horror show. Anyhow, it's pretty cool because it is actually bigger than a 538 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:41,760 Volkswagen and it was just flying down the freeway in the wind in California and it was 539 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:49,760 really kind of cool looking. So... Oh damn. Yeah. Yep. Sounds cool. Yeah, it was. So anyhow, 540 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:52,760 we're going to go ahead and wrap this up and we'll probably give you a segment of 541 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:57,760 something old to come up next, but we're running late tonight. We both had stuff that 542 00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:01,760 we had to get to and Rob had some stuff that he, you know, said at the first set was going 543 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:07,760 on so it's just kind of the way this nature goes. We're still giving the most of a podcast. 544 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:12,760 We're about 10 minutes short is all we are. So you'll get like, I don't know, some prank 545 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:18,760 phone calls or something, you know, something, you know, some ha ha or something. Or maybe 546 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:25,760 I'll just put all of Island of Horrible jokes and strange insults from an alien in a row. 547 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:30,760 Well, throw a little sum of Tofer in there. No, that's what I want to do. Yeah, I had 548 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:35,760 a good talk with Tofer today. Yeah, throw a sum of Tofer. I bought a really nice flying 549 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:40,760 guitar today. Tofer showed me this neat little guitar shop in Blue Springs and I will show 550 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:44,760 pictures of it when I get a chance, not tonight, but maybe tomorrow or something. I'll show 551 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:51,760 some pictures of it. But anyhow, Tofer and I talked for a while. But guess what? I'm going 552 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:58,760 to figure out three way calling and Tofer wants to call in here and there. Yes. And 553 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:04,760 here's another thing that happened where we normally broadcast from the mat. The magic 554 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:10,760 table is gone. I didn't know it, but that was Hope's table. Hope's tables were out there 555 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:16,760 in front. And that's where we broadcast from was her table. And I didn't know it. So when 556 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:21,760 she, when she retired and went out of business, her tables are gone and there's nothing in 557 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,760 that commons area now for us to broadcast off of. So we got to find another area at 558 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:32,760 the city market to do it. But I think I know what we can do. We can bring up our own fold 559 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:38,760 up table and our own fold up chairs and just makeshift one there. Yeah, we'll figure it 560 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:42,760 out. Yeah, we'll still get it done. It won't be our magic table, but you know what? It'll 561 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:52,760 be close. So anyhow, anyhow, Tofer is going to join us from time to time. It's going to 562 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:58,760 be a three way call and it's going to be three douchebags, but the name stays the same because 563 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:04,760 we ain't changing it. So, all right, everybody. Thank you very much. Have a great night. Thank 564 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:06,760 you everybody. Good night. 565 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:26,760 Hey, where do they go? Where are the douchebags? Oh my God. Someone took a dump in the corner. 566 00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:34,760 Oh jeez. Glad they're gone. Let's just hope they don't come back. Man, that smells.
