00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Live from the historic river market in downtown Kansas City, Missouri, from the crystal blue waters of the Missouri River, it's Two Douchebags and a Microphone Podcast.

2
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:22,000
And now it's time for the Daily Douchebag Pledge.

3
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:29,000
Two Douchebags and a Microphone Pledge, I, Joe, or Jane listener, hereby promise to download every show.

5
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,000
I, Joe, or Jane listener, hereby promise to go to public computers and download the show from there.

6
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,000

And finally, I, Joe, or Jane listener, promise to visit Montrose, Missouri, to take advantage of the power plant, campgrounds, and junkyard all within its quarter mile radius.

9
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Attention, attention, Two Douchebags and a Microphone did not invent Dummy Down of America. We just express waited. Carry on.

10
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000
And now, Deep Thoughts with Mark.

11
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:50,000
So, if I have a glass of ice water, and the ice melts into the water, is my water then watered down? Hmm, I may never know.

12
00:01:50,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Now, from this underground bunker in Camden, Missouri, stocked with dried guts, canned food, and a couple of vibrating toys, is ramblings of a madman featuring Rob Rad.

13
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:19,000
All those who believe in psychokinesis, raise my hand. That needs to happen.

14
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:37,000
Music

15
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Good evening everybody, this is Two Douchebags and a Microphone, I'm Mark.

16
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,000
And I'm Rob.

17
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
So, Rob, you had your first day back at work after how long of a hiatus did you have?

18
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,000
Two and a half weeks.

19
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Oh, wow. That's a pretty good little hiatus. Good? Good.

20
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000
How was that first 100 pound piece of metal you lifted? Did it feel good or not?

21
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:06,000
The first one did, but I don't know, man, they're getting heavier.

22
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Yeah, they do. Yeah, they do. I'll tell you what, now that I don't do...

23
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Especially when you've been off for a while, you know? Your muscles ain't used to it no more. You gotta get into it again.

24
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:30,000
Yeah, yeah, you do. I don't know if I could do what I used to do now. I don't think I could. It's not that I'm like out of shape or nothing, because I still get plenty of running in on my job now.

25
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:37,000
But I just don't think I could do that heavy work anymore. I hear what you're saying, Rob. It catches up with you.

26
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,000
Yeah, the older you get.

27
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Yeah, yeah. So, you know, speaking of getting older, you know, I don't know if you knew this or not, I was a huge Steve Purple fan, still am. Okay?

28
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Yeah, yeah, me too.

29
00:03:51,000 --> 00:04:04,000
For like, I don't know, 30 years now or something, for a long time, Steve Morris has been their guitarist. You know, Richard Blackmore left, and then they never got him back, and he went his own way, and they went their way.

30
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Steve Morris has been there probably 30 years, and a couple years ago, about a year and a half ago, he stepped down. And nobody really knew why. I scoured the internet going, what happened? Did they have a spat or something? They've been together so long.

31
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:31,000
You know, I couldn't imagine it would be something like that, and it wasn't. And I was like, well, he didn't say anything about retiring, because most of the times, you know, that type of a situation, like, you know, I just don't want to tour anymore.

32
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:41,000
You know, I'm semi-retired, or I'm done with music or whatever, but he didn't really say much of anything. So, finally, we know what happened.

33
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:53,000
Steve Morris, formerly of Deep Purple, the Dixie Dreads, and Kansas, just to name a few, Morris has been a premier guitar player for years, known for his unique picking style.

34
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:05,000
It helped lead to his ability to be ultra-fast and precise with his very own sound. And he is a very good guitarist. It's odd how he, like, never comes up in guitarists' names, though, you know.

35
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:14,000
You always hear about Steve Vai, Satriani, Nuno Bettencourt, Zach Wild, which are all great guitarists. Eddie Van Halen, of course.

36
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:23,000
But he is a virtuoso, too. He can play fast, he can do all that stuff, he can do finger tapping. He's a very good guitarist.

37
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:34,000
But, anyhow, he is one of the upper echelon of guitarists. A few years back, he stepped out of Deep Purple. I never really found an explanation until now.

38
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:43,000
It seems that Steve has bone arthritis, which makes it very painful for him to play, and worse yet, his picking style added tremendously to the pain.

39
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:58,000
What he did was, it's called a picking mute, where he muted it out while he picked. And, anyhow, you have to see it done, because even I, you know, I can't really explain it, too, because I'm not that great of a musician.

40
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:05,000
So, somehow, by him muting it on one side and then picking on the other, he came up with this sound that works very well.

41
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:16,000
Steve hasn't been an active musician for a few years now, so he has had time to develop a gadget that he can put on the end of his guitar near his tuners.

42
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:24,000
This allows him to do his picking mute style, yet perfected. The gadget is simple, but appears to get the job done.

43
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000
When he goes to do the finger mute, he would have to bend his wrists and not angle, causing severe pain.

44
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Now his gadget he invented is easy to adjust. There isn't any word on morse and possible touring or new music.

45
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:49,000
It's not known if he's ever going to be a part of Deep Purple again. You know, nothing. It's not known if he can still do a full show even with the new gadget.

46
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:57,000
I think this invention is a step in the right direction, and it's good to know that he doesn't want to retire.

47
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:02,000
I saw him in Purple a couple of years ago, and he is still a brilliant player.

48
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Hopefully you have him around musically for many more years.

49
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:18,000
But the article didn't exactly...you know what I mean? It didn't say, well, Morse is ready to go back on tour, or Morse can do a full show, or nothing like that.

50
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:31,000
It just said that it helped alleviate some of the pain. So I don't know if he's talking about practicing, or if he's talking about maybe playing a show here or there, or if he's just talking about just being able to play at home.

51
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:39,000
They didn't really go into any of that, but if I see anything, I will let everybody know. But I thought that...at least I have an answer about Steve Morse now.

52
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:44,000
So, anyway. Yeah, and I know you're a fan too of Steve Morse because...

53
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,000
Yeah, yeah I am.

54
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:51,000
Yeah, all the bands we mentioned, plus many more. He's been in numerous bands, and he's a really good guitarist.

55
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:59,000
Like I said, he's been the guitarist of Deep Purple for probably 30 years. So, anyhow. He did many albums with him too.

56
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:13,000
So, in a related note, you know, Kiss's dressing room always smelled like burnt toast according to people like opening bands, right?

57
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,000
Did you ever hear that?

58
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,000
Steve Morse did that story last week.

59
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,000
You should have done it because it's a great story.

60
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Well, I did. I did. I did.

61
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:36,000
Okay. According to an article on Ultimate Class Rock Magazine, former Night Ranger guitarist Jeff Watson recalled his band's early tour dates with Kiss and explained why the headline acts, dressing rooms, always smelled like burnt toast.

62
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:47,000
As a result of the experience in early 1983, as one of the openers of Kiss, Creatures of the Night Road Trip, Watson said he permanently connects the scent with that era.

63
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,000
It was eye-opening, he wrote, in a social media post.

64
00:08:51,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Tanks on stage, big guns dripping with fog, waiting for showtime, flamethrowers, canisters with nozzles hanging from the massive lighting trusses, dripping with fog, religious protesters in front of the shows with band-printed signs, reading Kiss, Knights in Satan's Service, and shit like that.

65
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Watson eventually discovered that the flammable liquid Gene Simmons was gulping into the mouth before igniting with a torch was very toxic.

66
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:35,000
And if he mistakenly swallowed any, which did happen, the fastest remedy before getting medical attention is eating as much burnt toast as possible.

67
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:42,000
It does something to help neutralize the poison until proper treatment, Watson said.

68
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,000
So it seems that the smell of burnt toast in Kiss's dressing room was due to Gene Simmons' fire-breathing stunt.

69
00:09:48,000 --> 00:10:04,000
The smell of burnt toast was a result of the remedy of the toxic, flammable liquid that he was trying not to consume in his mouth before he spit it out onto a torch and then very famously blew fire.

70
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:13,000
So I can't believe he didn't do that story, Rob. That was a great story. I never knew that. I mean, I was just like, wow.

71
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Yeah, well, it also went in to say that I forget who it was.

72
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,000
Okay.

73
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Some woman would stand off to the side with a plate of toast in case she needed it.

74
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Oh, yeah, yeah. It did go.

75
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,000
She'd be right there on the side of the stage.

76
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:41,000
I probably should have went into that, but I thought that was a story that I might just cap off early because not everybody is a great, you know, huge Kiss fan like we were.

77
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Right, right.

78
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:48,000
So that's why I stopped that. But no, that was interesting that they did have a law enforcement person there with toast.

79
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,000
And this law enforcement person, he didn't say this, but the way I take it, was probably a paramedic.

80
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,000
More than likely.

81
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,000
Yeah, and he was probably there with his own vehicle.

82
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:11,000
So if anything happened, he would administer the toast to Gene Simmons and then rush him to his car to get him to medical attention immediately.

83
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,000
I would think, probably.

84
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Well, I'm sure there was an ambulance on site. It's a concert.

85
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,000
Yeah, it could have been an ambulance too. I don't know. It depends on how they wanted to treat it.

86
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,000
You know, if he was law enforcement.

87
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Gene Simmons would be over everybody when it comes to treatment, you know.

88
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Yeah, yeah. Well, I'm sure they already had a deal worked out that if this happens, you're going to this hospital, which is this far away.

89
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,000
And so and so is going to be there to work on you or whatever.

90
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,000
So anyhow, interesting stuff.

91
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:52,000
So now, since then, I go into this.

92
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:59,000
Jimmy Kimball threatens to sue Aaron Rodgers over suggesting he might be a Jeffrey Epstein client.

93
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,000
Did you hear about that, Rob?

94
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,000
No, I have not heard about that.

95
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:12,000
I'll tell you what. If someone said that shit about me, I would hunt them down and pop them right in the fucking mouth.

96
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,000
And I'm assuming Kimball is innocent, which I believe he is.

97
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000
I don't believe that he had anything to do with Epstein.

98
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:28,000
And especially with his reaction to this, you know, Prince Andrew, when he was asked, I don't sweat, you know, when the girl said he was like lurking and sweating on her.

99
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,000
And his reaction was, I don't sweat.

100
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Or you can do some of the other people that have been all over that plane with Epstein just not saying anything.

101
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:46,000
But Kimball, I'm glad he fought back because this is not something you want to be associated with.

102
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers says he will pop some sort of bottle when the Epstein client list is released and suggests Jimmy Kimball will be named.

103
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,000
Rodgers said on a show, it was a Pat McAfee podcast, I believe.

104
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,000
There's a, and today they said, hey, they don't have anything to do with the comments.

105
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,000
They didn't endorse him. He just said him on his podcast.

106
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,000
You know what I mean? Which is what he should have done.

107
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,000
So Pat McAfee did a good job.

108
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:17,000
There's a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimball, are really hoping that doesn't come out.

109
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,000
I'll tell you what, if that list comes out, I will be popping some sort of bottle.

110
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:30,000
And that was a direct quote on the Pat McAfee podcast from what I, from what I read, allegedly and all that good shit.

111
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Kimball's response on ex, formerly Twitter.

112
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Dear asshole, for the record, I've not met, flown with, visited or had any contact whatsoever with Epstein.

113
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Nor will you find my name on any list other than the clearly phony nonsense that soft brain wackos like yourself can't seem to distinguish from reality.

114
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,000
Your reckless words put my family in danger.

115
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,000
Keep it up and we will debate the facts further in court.

116
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Bravo. And I don't like Jimmy Kimball that well.

117
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,000
Bravo, Jimmy Kimball. Bravo.

118
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,000
You don't let some...

119
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,000
See, Aaron Rodgers was stirring up shit on that show.

120
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:19,000
He has been doing this for quite a while. He's the one that is stirring up shit, trying to stir up shit with Kelsey.

121
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,000
Did you say that was Tuesday's show?

122
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,000
Tuesday's show, from what I understand.

123
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,000
Okay. Well, here's a story for you.

124
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,000
Okay.

125
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:41,000
Those who subscribe to the NFL script conspiracy have even more ammo now, thanks to something Aaron Rodgers pointed out while on the Pat McCaffey show.

126
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,000
They pay him like a million dollars or something to come on that show is what I read.

127
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:58,000
So, go ahead. Go ahead. Well, he's trying to stir up the idea that the NFL might be hinting at the Super Bowl teams with the logos over the last few years.

128
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:09,000
On Tuesday, Rodgers said he is eager to see the Super Bowl logo for next season and he hopes it appears green as one of the main colors.

129
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:21,000
If the Super Bowl is Baltimore and San Fran, when I tell you what, that Super Bowl emblem better have some jet green in it, Rodgers said.

130
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,000
It surprises me.

131
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:31,000
He's going into what we've talked about and a lot of people are talking about.

132
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,000
Well, I mean, okay, Topher brought this up.

133
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,000
The last two Super Bowls, the colors were in the emblem.

134
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,000
Look at it. Go online and look at it.

135
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:59,000
Put just type in Super Bowl emblem conspiracy and you'll get the last three or four, the last four, I believe, starting with the Chiefs in San Fran, the Cincinnati against the Rams to the Chiefs against Tampa and then the Chiefs against Philadelphia.

136
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,000
They're all in there and the color coordination is really close.

137
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:08,000
Close enough to make people think and go, wait a minute, what's going on here?

138
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:22,000
Now, Topher brought this up a long time ago on this podcast and you know, the NFL changed its description from a sport to entertainment.

139
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:32,000
When you do that, you cannot be sued or held liable if someone finds out that it's all been scripted. So if you're betting on it, that's buyer beware.

140
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,000
It's scripted or it could be scripted.

141
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:43,000
So I'm not saying it is scripted or not, but in my opinion, it's heavily influenced by the referees.

142
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,000
And that's why you get these bullshit calls.

143
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Like I said, well, you also have mentioned about betting now.

144
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,000
Betting is a big part of it nowadays.

145
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,000
It's so big that they even start mentioning it almost just in it.

146
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,000
I mean, just out in the open.

147
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:10,000
It used to be innuendos that like Al Michaels would say, like, well, there goes everyone's interest in the game or, you know, kind of like letting you know, like, well, they just blew the spread.

148
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Forget it, guys. Turn the TV off.

149
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:20,000
Now he's just almost and other ones are just almost just coming right out and going, well, there goes the spread, guys.

150
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:33,000
You know, so I mean, it looks to me in my humble opinion that the referees are influencing the games.

151
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,000
And it looks to me like they're doing it on purpose.

152
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,000
I could be completely wrong.

153
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,000
This is completely my opinion only you draw your own opinion.

154
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,000
You draw your own opinion.

155
00:17:46,000 --> 00:18:02,000
But going back to that Cowboys Detroit game and how that went down, the Chiefs game and how that went down, the Chiefs build game when that when that went down, the Chiefs clearly scored with only a few seconds left.

156
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:08,000
Right before that, Kadarius Tony had his foot down on the line.

157
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:13,000
He looked over at the referee and he asked him, is my foot on the line?

158
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,000
The referee didn't respond.

159
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,000
I would have done the same thing.

160
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,000
Oh, OK, coast clear.

161
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,000
And then the flag was thrown so late, like it was thought of.

162
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,000
This is my opinion.

163
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:31,000
It looked to me like it was thrown late, like he thought about it.

164
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,000
And so wait a minute. OK, I got to stop this score.

165
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,000
Those flag ball comes back.

166
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,000
You're talking about two people that never dogged the NFL, that's never said a bad word about that.

167
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,000
And that would be Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid.

168
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,000
They never say anything bad about that.

169
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,000
They knew that this was such bullshit that they immediately said some things about that.

170
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:58,000
It felt that wasn't really good and they subsequently got fined and I think it was fifty thousand dollars each.

171
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,000
So that tells you the magnitude of this screw up.

172
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,000
But to me, I don't in my opinion, I don't believe it's a screw up.

173
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:18,000
I think it's deliberate and I think at the Cowboys game was deliberate to in my opinion, because I don't think that anyone with any type of brain power at all.

174
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:31,000
Would be that stupid to one, do it after they already reported being an eligible receiver and two, after that, doubling down and saying they were right.

175
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000
If I was wrong and I mean I definitely wouldn't go with it.

176
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,000
I'd be like, you know what guys, I'm sorry.

177
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:42,000
I saw it wrong. I forgot. I got, you know, I got I got messed up in the whole hoopla.

178
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,000
Sorry, I was wrong.

179
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:54,000
And I would, you know, but you think since it took so long to figure it out that the referee could have went over there said, you know what guys, he did report to me.

180
00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:01,000
I'm sorry. Let's go ahead. Let's pick up that flag and go ahead and go with the game.

181
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:07,000
They scored the two points and that's what that dumbass referee could have done in Kansas City said, you know what?

182
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,000
He asked me, I should not have thrown the flag.

183
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,000
I messed up.

184
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:20,000
So it's either they're that fucking stupid and they're that inept or they're swaying the games.

185
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,000
They're influencing the games.

186
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:32,000
I'll tell you what, to me, I would never bet on a game because I am that to myself, my opinion, I'm confident that they're influencing the games on purpose.

187
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,000
So why would I vote on something that someone else has a complete controls to?

188
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,000
So anyhow, all right.

189
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,000
Let's see what we're talking about.

190
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,000
Aaron Rodgers.

191
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,000
Anyhow, I'm not a Jimmy Kimmel fan, but on this Bravo, you know what?

192
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,000
You stand your ground on this.

193
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,000
You don't want anyone saying that about you.

194
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,000
If that's not true, I'll tell you what I would.

195
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:07,000
I would throttle somebody within an inch of their life if they fucking went out and told people that I did something like this or I was a part of something.

196
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Yeah, that is a low blow.

197
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:14,000
And also his reaction wasn't like the Prince Andrew reaction.

198
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,000
I don't sweat.

199
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,000
That's a bullshit.

200
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,000
That's a bullshit statement because of this.

201
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,000
The first thing you say if someone accuses that is I did fucking not.

202
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,000
Who the hell said that?

203
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,000
Point him out.

204
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,000
Bring him here.

205
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,000
You don't go.

206
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,000
I couldn't be.

207
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,000
I don't sweat.

208
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,000
No, no, no.

209
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,000
That's that's a non answer.

210
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,000
So anyhow, Rob, you got anything?

211
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,000
Yeah.

212
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,000
I found out how Brian Cranston got his start.

213
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,000
You're talking about Breaking Bad, Brian Cranston?

214
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,000
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

215
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,000
Okay.

216
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,000
And also Malcolm in the Middle, Brian Cranston.

217
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,000
Yeah.

218
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,000
Yeah.

219
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,000
I love him.

220
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,000
He's so versatile.

221
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Go ahead.

222
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,000
Okay.

223
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,000
Everybody has to start somewhere.

224
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,000
Even for time in the award winning actors.

225
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:26,000
Years before his breakout role on Malcolm in the Middle and his critically acclaimed portrayal of Walter White on Breaking Bad, which earned him those four Emmys, Brian Cranston was just looking for his big break.

226
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:36,000
So in 1983, Cranston appeared as a spokesperson in a commercial for Hamroy Ointment Preparation H.

227
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:45,000
Now you can now you can relieve inflamed hemorrhoidal tissue with the oxygen action of preparation H.

228
00:22:45,000 --> 00:23:06,000
A bespeckled Cranston said in the ad, at the time of the commercial, Cranston had already made an appearance as a guest star on beloved top comedy Chips and was set for a reoccurring role as Doug Donovan on soap opera Loving.

229
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,000
I never even knew there was a soap opera named Loving, did you?

230
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:17,000
Honestly, I've heard of it. It's just recently in different articles I've read.

231
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Okay.

232
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,000
I, you know, well, I never was in the soap operas.

233
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,000
No, me neither.

234
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:29,000
I mean, when I was a kid, I remember all my children because that's what my mom watched every day.

235
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:36,000
But other than that, he was into other commercials too.

236
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Mars, Mars Candy, Prudential, Micolob, Good Season Salad Dress.

237
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:51,000
Wow. Okay. I didn't know that, but I love him.

238
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,000
He was in the commercial.

239
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,000
Didn't know. He's a, he is fantastic.

240
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:10,000
The whole inception of Bryan Cranston being this mild-mandered chemist into this outlaw that's trying to fund his chemotherapy is just so insanely genius.

241
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:20,000
You know, when he shaves his head, he literally looks like a different person and he acts like a different person.

242
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:30,000
It is just like one of the biggest, what would you call it, transformations ever in the history of TV.

243
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:37,000
And it was just brilliantly done by acting and writing. The writing was so solid too.

244
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,000
So anyhow, that's cool. I like Bryan Cranston. Big fan of his.

245
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,000
Yeah, I did too. I did too.

246
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:49,000
Well, I guess we couldn't enter him in the Harry Asshole Olympics. He done looked at Harry.

247
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000
No, he don't.

248
00:24:51,000 --> 00:25:00,000
Okay. Well, we'll just bring your name up. Hey, let's just, let's like, let's like have Bryan Cranston in every one of them and he goes out in the first round.

249
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,000
No.

250
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Yeah, just for the hell of it.

251
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:07,000
Yeah.

252
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:12,000
Okay. All right. We're going to take our first break and then we'll be right back everybody. Thank you.

253
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Next up, Things Overheard in Hell.

254
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:26,000
Well, that new Hanson CD is just a laptop. Uh huh.

255
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:36,000
The apocalypse just happened. You don't know what to do. You don't know where to go. But we can tell you what you can eat.

256
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:42,000
Sheep sorrel and wood sorrel are salad variety greens, reminiscent of romaine types of lettuce.

257
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Are both healthy and delicious. Vinegar and oil can be stored for a long period of time. So post apocalypse salad is possible.

258
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:56,000
It can also be ground for a tasty spice as well.

259
00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:07,000
Oh shit. What's that over there? Oh no. It's the island of horrible jokes.

260
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:15,000
Why did the villains not get married? Because they can't elope.

261
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,000
Ha ha ha ha ha.

262
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:31,000
Break shit house energy drink. That's right. Break shit house energy drink. Make men and women girl.

263
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:38,000
Two hundred balls. Who wants to fuck shit up? Run for a scum across America.

264
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,000
Break shit house energy drink is for you.

265
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:47,000
Please enjoy break shit house energy drink responsibly. It's not readily available anywhere. Because of liability issues.

266
00:26:47,000 --> 00:27:00,000
Continuing our quest here at Two Douchebags in a Microphone to be constantly funny. Once again we offer you strange insults from an alien.

267
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,000
When you own shit from your computer, your head goes so attached.

268
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:23,000
Music.

269
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Two Douchebags. Alright everybody. Okay good good good good. Okay well that's going to be an odd little segment there.

270
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,000
Yeah.

271
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:41,000
Alright and I'm just going to leave it in there because there's no way to take it out really. I mean it's just dumped over another one. But anyhow.

272
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,000
Why not? It just proves we're human.

273
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,000
You know what? They're getting their money's worth.

274
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,000
We're not gods. We're not gods.

275
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:58,000
Yep. Ruthann is not answered. We may have lost her Rob. We may have lost Ruthann from north central Ohio.

276
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,000
I tried.

277
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:06,000
I can't believe that she's willing to hurt you to get to me.

278
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,000
Some people.

279
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Do you know of Twin Peaks restaurant Rob?

280
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,000
I haven't heard of it.

281
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,000
It's like a Hooters.

282
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:24,000
You go in there and I think they're wearing like plaid short skirts and bobby socks.

283
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:28,000
Yeah yeah yeah. I've been reading some of it. Yeah.

284
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:34,000
Okay and you know they like to have wings and burgers and stuff. It's basically to me like an old man hangout.

285
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,000
Hooters.

286
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,000
Do what?

287
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Yeah. No one's like Hooters.

288
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:53,000
Yeah. It's a lot like Hooters. It was built off of that type of a restaurant. And there's one in Independence and one in Olathe and a couple other places.

289
00:28:53,000 --> 00:29:04,000
But okay. Social media is a buzz over a letter indicating a new TIP refund policy will be implemented at Kansas City area Twin Peaks restaurants.

290
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:18,000
The memo which has been reshared on Facebook thousands of times says processing fees will be deducted from credit card tips of area employees of the sports bar starting Monday.

291
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:28,000
It says 2.5 will be deducted from Visa, Discover and Mastercard tips and 3.25 will be deducted from American Express tips.

292
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:44,000
So they're taking it out of the waitresses end on the tips that they add. They're taking 3.25% and 2.5% depending on the card.

293
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,000
And then it was accompanied with this.

294
00:29:47,000 --> 00:30:02,000
We understand that the implementation may raise concerns and we assure you that this decision was not made lightly reads the letter which appears to be written with the letterhead for franchise group 3B Lodge owner of the Kansas City area Twin Peaks.

295
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:10,000
3B Lodge is run by Brent and Brad Stephen who also own Twin Peaks locations in Wichita which there's two of them.

296
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:17,000
Neither 3B Lodge nor Twin Peaks responded to the STARS which would be the Kansas City STARS request for comment.

297
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,000
And that's where the story came from the STARS.

298
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:27,000
The STARS communicated with servers who said a letter was given out but they did not wish to be named for fear of losing employment.

299
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:33,000
The letter was given to area employees on Wednesday according to the information that's been circulating on social media.

300
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,000
The STARS was not able to obtain a copy of the letter as of Friday afternoon.

301
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:45,000
So anyhow so what they're saying is is they're like if we're going to process a tip for you.

302
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,000
We're not paying the processing fee.

303
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,000
But here's the wild card Rob.

304
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,000
Okay.

305
00:30:52,000 --> 00:31:01,000
Have you ever known anybody to segregate a tip like paying cash and go well I'm going to pay my tip with a card.

306
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,000
Right.

307
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:07,000
Yeah. It's all added together right.

308
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:15,000
Yeah. So to me what this company is saying is we're going to take and we're going to figure out how much of that 2.5.

309
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:19,000
We're going to take 2.5. Let's say they get a $20 tip.

310
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:31,000
They're going to just take 2.5 or 3.7 or whatever it is whatever the numbers were out of that because that's the processing fee.

311
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:36,000
I don't like it.

312
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,000
And here's why.

313
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:49,000
If it was just a tip to where let's see a guy goes OK here's 120 cash for me and my boys for the food.

314
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:56,000
And here's 30 on a card from me and the boys.

315
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,000
Then they could do it.

316
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:06,000
Because all of that went straight to the person and none of it went to the restaurant right.

317
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,000
To me. Right.

318
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,000
In my opinion I think it's kind of shitty to do that.

319
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,000
I don't think any other restaurants doing that.

320
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:21,000
If you're that starved for money which I don't think they are I've seen their prices.

321
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:26,000
It's not like they're handing anybody special deals in my opinion.

322
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,000
I don't.

323
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:34,000
I think they do plenty well that they don't have to do this.

324
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:42,000
And I think it reflects badly on the company and it's going to help them not get people in the doors because of this.

325
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,000
And that's what I think at least Rob.

326
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,000
Go ahead.

327
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:53,000
Well there are hard times I hope.

328
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,000
Especially now that this came out like this.

329
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:04,000
Because you know a lot of a lot of restaurants have went to putting the tip on the bill.

330
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,000
Yes.

331
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,000
There's a lot. I got a great story.

332
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,000
I still leave a few bucks on the table.

333
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,000
That way I know they get something.

334
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,000
So do I.

335
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,000
And I've got a great example Rob.

336
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,000
Before Covid.

337
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:25,000
You know you went to the carry out section of any restaurant right.

338
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:30,000
It did not have a tip on there did not prompt you for a tip.

339
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:37,000
But during Covid because these people were in there in quotations risking their life.

340
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,000
Making sure you can get food.

341
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:46,000
Tips were not mandatory but highly looked at favorably right.

342
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:53,000
They're kind of like you know these people are in here working and guaranteeing that you get to sit at home and not get Covid.

343
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:59,000
So how about if you slide them 15 20 percent like a regular waiter or waitress.

344
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,000
That you know if you had the ability to come in here you'd be spending that much anyhow.

345
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,000
So most people went along with it right.

346
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,000
And most people left money.

347
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:12,000
Well that never went away after Covid.

348
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:18,000
So you know.

349
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,000
Here's another problem I have with it.

350
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,000
Okay.

351
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,000
If this company is allowed to get away with it.

352
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:32,000
It's going to open the doors for everybody else and it's going to become a normal thing.

353
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:39,000
Yes and that's a great point Rob because I think that that's bullshit that it might be a regular thing in a couple of years.

354
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:46,000
Because to me that's just if they see this company's getting away with it then everybody else is going to follow suit.

355
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:51,000
And I've always said this although I didn't follow it at my previous employment.

356
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,000
Because they were definitely doing this in my opinion.

357
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:00,000
Once they start sticking their hand in your wallet they have nothing left to offer you.

358
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,000
Agreed.

359
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,000
Right. Right. Yes.

360
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,000
They need to be putting it in your wallet not taking it out.

361
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,000
Exactly.

362
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,000
And in my opinion my old place was doing that a little bit too much for my liking.

363
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,000
Right.

364
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:17,000
The place I'm at now doesn't do that and I'm very happy there.

365
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,000
So but anyhow I'm not here to doggone the old place or nothing like that.

366
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:25,000
You know everyone knows how I feel about them that's been listening to this program.

367
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,000
But anyhow I still live by that.

368
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:34,000
I think that once a place starts reaching in your pocket you're going to look for that forever.

369
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:35,000
It's not going to end.

370
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,000
They're going to keep doing it.

371
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:41,000
And to me this kind of seems what this might be a deal like in my opinion is.

372
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:45,000
They're starting to reach into their pockets and I don't think it ends there.

373
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:46,000
So.

374
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,000
That's what I'm saying.

375
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,000
It could open the door for other companies to it.

376
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,000
And then everybody gets screwed.

377
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,000
Yeah and then it's going to be norm.

378
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,000
And then that's what I don't want it to be because I mean you know what.

379
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:02,000
These people work their ass off for us and I want them to get the money.

380
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,000
Right.

381
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:11,000
So yeah anyhow the corporation in my opinion charges enough for lower wages and we do.

382
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,000
Yes.

383
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,000
Yep.

384
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,000
Yeah.

385
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,000
Because they get tipped.

386
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,000
Right.

387
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,000
And that tip is figured in.

388
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,000
They're figured in at 20 percent taxes.

389
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:22,000
Right.

390
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,000
They pay taxes on 20 percent whether they get 20 percent or not.

391
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,000
They could have a bunch of people in there grouchy or just thought that they didn't do good or whatever.

392
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,000
Give them five percent.

393
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,000
They're still paying taxes on 20 percent.

394
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,000
Yeah.

395
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,000
So how fair is that.

396
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:38,000
Not.

397
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Anyhow that was Ronnie Reagan that introduced that one.

398
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,000
So.

399
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,000
OK.

400
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,000
I have another story here and then we can get to something you want to talk about Rob.

401
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:56,000
Then it feels handed down a punishment for the Carolina Panthers most accurate toss of week 17.

402
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,000
Did you hear about this.

403
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,000
No.

404
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:16,000
The league officially find Panthers owner David Tepper three hundred thousand dollars for his actions during the Jacksonville Jaguars 26 and nothing win over the Panthers on Sunday with NFL deeming the contact the conduct unacceptable.

405
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:27,000
The National Football League today find Carolina Panthers chairman David Tepper three hundred thousand dollars for his unacceptable conduct in Jacksonville during Sunday's game.

406
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:36,000
All NFL personnel are expected to conduct themselves at all times and ways of respect for our fans and favorably reflect on the team and the NFL.

407
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:47,000
And in a video captured by a Jaguars fan on Instagram Tepper appears to hurl his drink towards the Everbank Stadium crowd in a moment of frustration.

408
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:55,000
Panthers general manager Scott Federer is also in the background of the video and it's very apparent.

409
00:37:55,000 --> 00:38:04,000
They were mouthing off and having fun at him and he got mad and he threw his drink at them.

410
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,000
Yeah, yeah, you can look it up.

411
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:07,000
Look it up on YouTube.

412
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,000
It's everywhere.

413
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,000
And yeah, he got frustrated.

414
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:15,000
He threw his drink at the crowd, which is a bullshit thing to do.

415
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:21,000
You know, I mean, you don't respond to the crowd.

416
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:33,000
You know, you in my opinion, you should be better than that if you're in the NFL and representing the NFL, which is basically what they said.

417
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,000
Is that right there?

418
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,000
You don't do that.

419
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,000
You don't care what they say.

420
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,000
You just like who cares, man.

421
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:40,000
I own the team.

422
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,000
You don't fuck off, you know.

423
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,000
But the thing is, he reacted to it.

424
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,000
He's getting three hundred thousand dollars fine.

425
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:54,000
I know he's probably a billionaire, but still, I think it's still going to probably piss him off that he's going to shell out three hundred grand for that.

426
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,000
You got anything you want to say about it, Rob?

427
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,000
Not really.

428
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,000
It speaks for itself.

429
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,000
Yeah, it speaks for itself.

430
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,000
Yeah, and he's getting a pretty good fine.

431
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,000
So I guess I'm good with it.

432
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:13,000
I don't think it's an offense where you have to sell your team or anything.

433
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:19,000
I just think now if he keeps it up, that could be, you know, in the cards.

434
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:26,000
But he, you know, he is human, but he should hold him.

435
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,000
He should hold himself to a higher standard.

436
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,000
And that happened.

437
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,000
So, Rob, we turn to you.

438
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,000
I know you probably have some stuff you want to say.

439
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:40,000
Yeah.

440
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,000
I found this in CBS News.

441
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,000
OK.

442
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:54,000
The first U.S. execution by nitrogen gas would cause humiliating death, experts say.

443
00:39:54,000 --> 00:40:02,000
I didn't even know they're entertaining the thought about doing nitrogen for execution.

444
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,000
That would freeze him, right?

445
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,000
Wouldn't that freeze him?

446
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,000
I'm about to tell you about it.

447
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,000
OK, sorry.

448
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:19,000
Calls continue to mount for officials to halt the execution of a death row inmate in Alabama

449
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:26,000
who is scheduled to be put to death later this month using nitrogen hypoxia,

450
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:33,000
a controversial method that international human rights experts have denounced

451
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:39,000
as a potential to cause severe and unnecessary suffering.

452
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:47,000
We are considered concerned that hydrogen hypoxia would result in a painful and humiliating death,

453
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:54,000
say, group of experts in a statement issued Wednesday by the United Nations.

454
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:58,000
And it gives the experts names.

455
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,000
OK.

456
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:04,000
They're all part of the Human Rights Council special procedures program

457
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:10,000
where independent specialists work on a volunteer basis to investigate and advise

458
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:14,000
on human rights issues across the world.

459
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,000
Mm hmm.

460
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:27,000
This will be the first attempt of nitrogen hypoxia execution, experts said in their UN statement

461
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:36,000
and know that there is no scientific evidence to prove that execution by nitrogen inhalation

462
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:41,000
will not cause grave suffering.

463
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:45,000
Well, this is the first one. There's three sets.

464
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,000
There's another one in Oklahoma and one in Mississippi.

465
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,000
OK.

466
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,000
But this is to be the first.

467
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:54,000
Nitrogen, wouldn't that freeze someone to death?

468
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:58,000
Yeah, it says nitrogen inhalation.

469
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,000
OK.

470
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:00,000
So it frees your lungs.

471
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,000
It frees your lungs, yes.

472
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,000
OK. So that's how they, that's how they put it on there.

473
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,000
But they're saying you would suffer.

474
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:14,000
Um, probably wouldn't you think, wouldn't you think that inhaling something and your lungs freezing like that

475
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:19,000
would probably cause suffering until you died?

476
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:23,000
I don't know for sure.

477
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,000
Um, I don't know.

478
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,000
I'm thinking it would be pretty quick.

479
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,000
OK, maybe it would.

480
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,000
You would just lose your breath.

481
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,000
You'd be like taking your breath out of you.

482
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:37,000
I mean.

483
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,000
You'd be passing out and catching your breath. You'd be dead.

484
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,000
Wouldn't be worse than old Sparky, would it?

485
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:45,000
Because a lot of times people survived old Sparky and they had to do it two or three times.

486
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,000
So, yeah.

487
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,000
Yeah.

488
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,000
Um, I don't know.

489
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:55,000
If I knew enough about it, I have an inkling which way I felt about it, but I don't know enough about it.

490
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,000
Well, here's my opinion.

491
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:58,000
OK.

492
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,000
Here's my opinion.

493
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,000
It's the first one.

494
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,000
Let's do it and see how it goes.

495
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:05,000
There you go.

496
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,000
We're talking about someone that probably did a very heinous crime, so.

497
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,000
You're on death row. You're dying anyway.

498
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,000
Yeah, you know what? You can be a guinea pig at that point, right?

499
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:18,000
You'll be, yeah, you'll be the guinea pig.

500
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,000
OK, I'm good. I'm good with that.

501
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,000
Yeah.

502
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:28,000
Alright. So there you go, Justice Department or whoever OKs that shit.

503
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,000
There you go.

504
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,000
Two douchebags and a microphone.

505
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:32,000
Say yes.

506
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,000
Try it on the first one and see how it goes.

507
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:36,000
And also.

508
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:41,000
The UN's even trying to fight this, so.

509
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:42,000
Oh.

510
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,000
We'll see. OK.

511
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,000
Yeah, we'll see.

512
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:54,000
I think that Ruthann is getting ready to go on the Two Fuck Nuts and Recorder program.

513
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,000
I know.

514
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:56,000
Yeah.

515
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:57,000
I know.

516
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,000
You might.

517
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:04,000
I know. I don't know. I thought they were our friends. I guess not.

518
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,000
I told you.

519
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:11,000
You're right. Yep, you're right. She bailed. She went to Two Fuck Nuts and Recorder.

520
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,000
Well, that's not their fault, though. That's not their fault.

521
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:21,000
No, you know what? I'm sure she's a very entertaining guest and that's why they have her on there, right?

522
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,000
Yeah. Yeah.

523
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:24,000
They're likely.

524
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:30,000
OK. We are going to take our second break and come right back with more bullshit. How's that?

525
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,000
Sounds good.

526
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:37,000
Alright. We'll be right back.

527
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:46,000
Somewhere in the heavens, your great Grammy Gertrude is crying because her little Bebo is listening to this film.

528
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:52,000
In that brand new future, strange insights from an alien.

529
00:44:52,000 --> 00:45:00,000
May you always step in a wet spot after putting on fresh socks.

530
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:08,000
Brick Shit House Energy Drink. That's right. Brick Shit House Energy Drink. Make men feel like a girl.

531
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:16,000
Chow on their balls. You want to fuck shit up? Run for a scum across America? Brick Shit House is for you.

532
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:23,000
Please enjoy Brick Shit House Energy Drink responsibly. It's not readily available anywhere because of liability issues.

533
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:30,000
And now, Deep Thoughts with Mark.

534
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:37,000
So, I order spaghetti and meatballs. My meatballs automatically fall apart as soon as I touch them.

535
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:43,000
So then, does my dish automatically change its name to spaghetti and meat sauce?

536
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:50,000
Hmph. I may never know.

537
00:45:50,000 --> 00:46:05,000
We're back. Two douchebags and a microphone. I'm Mark.

538
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,000
And I'm Rob.

539
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:16,000
Rob, you know, time to time periodically we've been trying to keep the elder people and middle-aged people up to date on the newest phrases, you know, to keep them hip, right?

540
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,000
Yes. Yes. Yes.

541
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:21,000
Because we care here at TKS fans. We need them too. We need them too.

542
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:28,000
Yes, we do. And this is why we bothered to look them up and let you guys know about the newest phrases.

543
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:34,000
That way we can appear cool to everybody even though we're probably not that cool, right?

544
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:37,000
We try to be. Yeah, we try.

545
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:51,000
I have some more phrases that are for the youngsters, the Zers and the Xers and maybe even the Alpha-ers who are, I think the Alphas are like 12 and under, so I don't know. Anyhow.

546
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:57,000
Have you ever heard the phrase beige flag?

547
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:58,000
No.

548
00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:17,000
Me neither. It was introduced to draw attention to the quirky neutral traits in partners that may not be deal-breakers to the person.

549
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:31,000
So in other words, they throw a beige flag out there and the reason it's not a red flag or a white flag or whatever is because these are things that may or may not bother the person according to who they are, right? Does that make more sense?

550
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:36,000
Yeah. Okay. Yeah. The white flag, the red flag.

551
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,000
Yeah, so like let's say...

552
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,000
I've heard of a beige flag.

553
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:48,000
Let's say you get a new girlfriend, right Rob? And her name's, I don't know, Sarah. Okay.

554
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:55,000
And I notice that Sarah gets on her phone a lot when you're talking to her and doesn't hear you.

555
00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:01,000
And then I pull you aside and I go, Rob, I don't know, you know, this is kind of a beige flag.

556
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:07,000
But you know, I notice every time you try to tell her something, she doesn't really listen because she's on her phone.

557
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:11,000
That would be me giving you a beige flag and then you could be like, yeah, I don't give a shit.

558
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:16,000
Or yeah, or you could be like, you know, yeah, you know what, I'm starting to notice that too.

559
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:20,000
I agree with you. Or you could be like, you know what, Mark, I don't think I really care.

560
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,000
She can look at her phone when I'm talking to her.

561
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:28,000
You see, that would be a beige flag. It's nothing that's like eminent that says this person is a horrible person.

562
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:35,000
Run as fast as you can. It's something that may be concerning to you or may not.

563
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:41,000
Right. OK. The next one. Yeah, it's cool to know this stuff. Next one.

564
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:45,000
That one's a good one to know.

565
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:50,000
It really is. It really is. If someone throws you a beige flag, you know what they're talking about.

566
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:55,000
Hey, man, you know that business deal? I got a beige flag for you. Oh, yeah?

567
00:48:55,000 --> 00:49:00,000
You know, and then they could tell you whatever. So anyhow, next one.

568
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:10,000
Bet. B-E-T. Bet can be used as a confirmation or in agreement with or to simply relay.

569
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:17,000
You can count on me or I'm all in. So someone goes, man, I'm going to go there and I'm going to smear those fuckers at Pac-Man.

570
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:21,000
And then someone goes bet. That means they're going to be with you, right? Hell, yeah.

571
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:27,000
We're both going to smear their ass. Or, man, I just beat that guy's ass on Pac-Man.

572
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,000
And the guy comes up and goes bet. Use like that. That means hell, yeah, you did.

573
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:40,000
Confirm it. Yeah. So that's interesting that that phrase bet has two different meanings.

574
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:44,000
And it depends on how you use it.

575
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:50,000
Next one. Cap. C-A-P.

576
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:57,000
Cap means lying or making false statements. And that's it. So let's say someone comes up and goes, all right.

577
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:06,000
Yeah, I saw Rob down the road stealing someone's political sign.

578
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:11,000
Then I go cap. Rob doesn't do that.

579
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:17,000
I don't know. That's the best I could come up with. So anyhow, I think you guys got the picture of that. OK.

580
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:21,000
Yeah, because I don't know if I would or not.

581
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:27,000
It depends. It depends. It depends. Yes.

582
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:35,000
We're dick jokes. That's what we are. Very proudly offer you dick jokes and fart jokes on a platter.

583
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:40,000
Next one. To be honest, we're anything but politics and religion.

584
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:48,000
Exactly, because everybody knows where they stand on that and we're not swaying. We're not swaying anybody's opinion.

585
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:55,000
So we're going to go back to the basics, try to make people smile. That's all.

586
00:50:55,000 --> 00:51:01,000
And tell you about things you didn't know. Yeah, like coffee badging.

587
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:05,000
Any idea what that is, Rob?

588
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:25,000
Oh, I could. I would say a somebody goes around trying different coffees and calls themselves like a critic.

589
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:40,000
You're in the ballpark, but not quite. Coffee badging is used to describe a person that shows up at the office long enough to say hi and to make an appearance that they showed up.

590
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:51,000
And this is what I used to call on the local jobs that I used to do, my old job, a project manager.

591
00:51:51,000 --> 00:52:05,000
The project manager, in my opinion, would coffee badge. They would come up there and look around and act like they knew everything about the job and then go back to the office and go, yeah, I was out there and it seems to be everything's going pretty well.

592
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:10,000
We had a couple issues we worked through, but really they went there, said hi and left.

593
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:18,000
And they probably went down to Dunkin' Donuts and spent 40 minutes there.

594
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:25,000
So to me that's coffee badging, in my opinion, allegedly, and all that good shit.

595
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:28,000
I was totally off on that.

596
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:32,000
Well, you said coffee, so I gave part of it to you.

597
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,000
Yeah.

598
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,000
Okay, all right.

599
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:41,000
Look, that was not easy to identify.

600
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,000
Next one is...

601
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,000
I understand now.

602
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,000
Qazi Lives.

603
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:52,000
C-O-Z-Z-I-E-L-I-V-S.

604
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,000
It was first used in the UK.

605
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,000
Yeah, that's why I didn't even ask.

606
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:01,000
There's no way anyone could get this that hasn't heard what it is.

607
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,000
It was first used in the UK.

608
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,000
Pertains to challenges of the cost of living.

609
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:12,000
For an example, Netflix and chill, no fucking way.

610
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,000
Channel 4 and no oil.

611
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:19,000
Hashtag Qazi Lives.

612
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:23,000
So no Netflix, you couldn't afford it.

613
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:27,000
And no, it's not going to be warm because you couldn't afford the heating oil.

614
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:32,000
So it's regular network TV and cold.

615
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:36,000
Qazi Lives, Qazi Lives, whatever.

616
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:39,000
I actually kind of like that one.

617
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,000
I do too.

618
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:45,000
It's actually describing it very well.

619
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:48,000
Once you know what it means, all you've got to do is go,

620
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,000
Hey, are you going to go to the concert?

621
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:53,000
Qazi Lives.

622
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:56,000
Okay, gotcha.

623
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,000
But Qazi Lives to me now that I talk about it.

624
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:02,000
Cost of living, Qazi Lives.

625
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:06,000
So you have a pretty good little shortened sentence.

626
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:09,000
And you don't have to go into detail.

627
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:15,000
Maybe you don't want to go and go, Nah, dude, I'm flat busted in front of a bunch of people.

628
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,000
Maybe it's kind of embarrassing.

629
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:20,000
So if someone questions you, you just go, Qazi Lives.

630
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:21,000
Oh, okay.

631
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:22,000
All right, thanks.

632
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:23,000
All right, better luck next time.

633
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,000
Whatever.

634
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:30,000
Next one, Delulu.

635
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,000
Any idea, Rob?

636
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,000
No.

637
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:38,000
Short for delusional.

638
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:44,000
So someone comes up to you and goes, man, there's an escape monkey down the road.

639
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:45,000
Don't go that way.

640
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:47,000
He jumps on your car and tries to get in.

641
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:48,000
I get it now.

642
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:52,000
And then a guy comes up to you and he goes, Delulu.

643
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:53,000
Ah, thank you.

644
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,000
Thank you.

645
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:59,000
You know, the guy's fucking nutbag and been doing this or what, you know,

646
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:05,000
or the guy knows him and he's a nutbag or whatever, cracked out or something.

647
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:10,000
The next one is, I understand how they got that name though.

648
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,000
Uh huh.

649
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:20,000
Vu is in view and Lou is in lunatic.

650
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:22,000
I never even thought about that.

651
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,000
You're right.

652
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:24,000
Delulu.

653
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,000
Yeah, that makes sense.

654
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:29,000
A delusional lunatic.

655
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:30,000
There you go.

656
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,000
Delusional lunatic.

657
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:33,000
Delulu.

658
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:34,000
That's it, Rob.

659
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:35,000
I didn't.

660
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,000
Cool.

661
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,000
Wow, thanks.

662
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,000
That was cool.

663
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:40,000
Yeah?

664
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,000
Um, next one.

665
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,000
Finsta.

666
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:49,000
F-I-N-S-T-A.

667
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:50,000
Don't know.

668
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:55,000
Means fake Instagram account.

669
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:56,000
That makes sense.

670
00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:03,000
You just put the F for fake and then Insta.

671
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:07,000
F-R. Just F-R.

672
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:12,000
Sounds like a key on a keyboard.

673
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:15,000
Abbreviation for the term for real.

674
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:22,000
So let's say you write down, man, that fucking, that, that, man, that motor was loud.

675
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:26,000
Someone walks up behind and goes F-R.

676
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:27,000
Means for real.

677
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:28,000
Absolutely.

678
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,000
That's what it is.

679
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,000
Rob is right.

680
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,000
This next one, I love this one.

681
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,000
And we'll see if you can get it.

682
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:41,000
It's simply called Hold This L.

683
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,000
Like the letter L.

684
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:46,000
Hold This L.

685
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,000
Hold This Loss.

686
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,000
Yeah.

687
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:51,000
Yep.

688
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:56,000
Phrase to describe on social media that a person needs to accept this defeat.

689
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,000
Perfect.

690
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:00,000
Good job, Rob.

691
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,000
You nailed that one 100%.

692
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:04,000
And then.

693
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:06,000
The L.

694
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:07,000
Yeah.

695
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:08,000
Hold This L.

696
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:10,000
And I like that one a lot.

697
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:11,000
It's like here, own it.

698
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:12,000
It's yours.

699
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:13,000
Here's your baby.

700
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:14,000
Yep.

701
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:15,000
Mr. Radford, here's your baby.

702
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:16,000
Wipe it off.

703
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:17,000
Hold it.

704
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:18,000
So there you go.

705
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,000
Or Mr. Wallace, here you go.

706
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:21,000
Okay.

707
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:24,000
I'll take my L and go home.

708
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,000
And the last but not least, Hot Girl Summer.

709
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:30,000
I think I might have covered this on another list.

710
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,000
I'm not for sure.

711
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,000
It sounds familiar.

712
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,000
Either that or someone used it on me.

713
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:35,000
Yeah, that does sound familiar.

714
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:36,000
It does, doesn't it?

715
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:40,000
So anyhow, if I'm reusing it, I apologize.

716
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:42,000
If not, then now you know.

717
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,000
I still want to hear it.

718
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:45,000
Okay.

719
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:55,000
Describes a term that encompasses a state of mind characterized by confidence, self-acceptance, and unabashed enjoyment of life.

720
00:57:55,000 --> 00:58:00,000
So it's like, hey man, how's Lisa doing down the road?

721
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,000
I mean, she kind of had a tough winter.

722
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:03,000
Oh, Hot Girl Summer.

723
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,000
Oh, good, good, good.

724
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,000
She's doing great then, you know.

725
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:08,000
Yeah.

726
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:11,000
So yeah, that's kind of, man.

727
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:14,000
You got anything, Rob?

728
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:20,000
Yeah, I got five foods you can't get in 2024.

729
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:21,000
Interesting.

730
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:22,000
Go forth.

731
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:23,000
Yeah.

732
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:24,000
It's funny.

733
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,000
That's why I started laughing a while ago.

734
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,000
You mentioned Dunkin' Donuts.

735
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:30,000
I was wondering about that.

736
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,000
I didn't think it was that funny.

737
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,000
Okay.

738
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:41,000
No, the very first one on this list is Dunkachino.

739
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:54,000
According to today, a Dunkin' spokesperson confirmed that Dunkachino is retired for now, but there's always the chance for its return in the future.

740
00:58:54,000 --> 00:59:00,000
Is a Dunkin' Chino a frozen drink?

741
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:05,000
It's a popular drink that is a blend of coffee and hot chocolate.

742
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:11,000
Oh, okay. So it's not like a Frappuccino where it's a blended ice drink. It's okay.

743
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:14,000
No, it sounds like it's a hot drink.

744
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:17,000
Okay. Sounded good to me.

745
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:22,000
That's why I was laughing because I was sitting there reading that.

746
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:28,000
Okay.

747
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:46,000
Next, 2023 was tough for Pringles fans as the company shut down production of four flavors, including jalapeno, jalapeno mustard, and their wavy line of chips.

748
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:54,000
So no more jalapeno mustard, mustard, and wavy Pringles. They're all gone.

749
00:59:54,000 --> 01:00:00,000
Yep. Jalapeno, honey mustard, or any of the wavy lines.

750
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:09,000
I know some people that will irritate, they won't be happy about, but I've never been a Pringles fan. I just never really liked the taste of them that way.

751
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:10,000
I like Pringles.

752
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:11,000
You do?

753
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:12,000
I like Pringles.

754
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:13,000
Okay.

755
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:14,000
Yeah.

756
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:19,000
All right. That's cool.

757
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:31,000
Next, the Cheerio brand sells close to 140 million boxes of cereal each year, placing it atop the cereal food chain.

758
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:40,000
This year they'll be adding several new kinds of cereal while axing maple Cheerios.

759
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:47,000
I couldn't agree more. They're disgusting to me.

760
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:50,000
Yeah, their maple don't, yeah.

761
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:54,000
To me, in my opinion, it does not taste like maple.

762
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:57,000
No. There's something wrong with it.

763
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:02,000
It's too sweet in the wrong direction is how I would describe it. So anyhow.

764
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:09,000
Yeah.

765
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:17,000
Next, the first ever Girl Scout cookie created to be exclusively online is being retired.

766
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:28,000
The Raspberry Rally won't be sold this upcoming cookie sale season, which runs January through April 2024.

767
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:34,000
Well, I can tell you this, it's a good cookie because I don't think Girl Scouts make a bad cookie, do they?

768
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,000
No, I don't think they do.

769
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:43,000
No, I can guarantee you it was good.

770
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:52,000
And finally, Trader Joe's Minty Mallows.

771
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:59,000
Now I've seen those. I've seen those, but I've never tried them at Trader Joe's.

772
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:04,000
I've never been to Trader Joe's.

773
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:11,000
Each January, lots of stores rotate their holiday stock out, including Trader Joe's.

774
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:19,000
Despite being a seasonal favorite, Trader Joe's Minty Mallows won't be back next year.

775
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:22,000
So they're doing with them away for good.

776
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,000
Yeah.

777
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:31,000
I find that interesting because they sure seem like it's a pretty good seller, but I don't know. Who knows? Whatever.

778
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:34,000
Okay. Wow.

779
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:38,000
They might be making one for a different flavor.

780
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:44,000
I'm sure they are, and I'm sure the next flavor will be as good.

781
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:48,000
M&M's real quick before we leave this podcast.

782
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:56,000
M&M's is coming out with a new flavor, and it is New Easter Sunday Flavor.

783
01:02:56,000 --> 01:03:03,000
And you can get them at Target and Walmart. And this is a flavor that's never been introduced before, and they're pretty proud of it.

784
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:12,000
It's vanilla ice cream flavored topped with hot fudge and a touch of cherry.

785
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:17,000
And that will be the new Easter Sunday Flavor, something that tastes like that.

786
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:25,000
And it's for a limited time. When Easter comes and goes, that's it. You can get it right now until Easter, and that's all.

787
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:29,000
And it is a brand new flavor. It's never been introduced before.

788
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:35,000
So if you are an M&M fan and you want to try something different along their product line, I suggest you go out and get it.

789
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:41,000
And it says here Target and Walmart. Like I said a little bit ago, Target and Walmart have it, so go get it.

790
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:49,000
Anyhow, you got anything else you want to say, Rob, or is that going to be it?

791
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:52,000
That's about all I got for tonight.

792
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:59,000
Yeah, yeah. I got a slight headache. If I sound a little down, I don't know what's going on.

793
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:06,000
I mean, I don't feel bad or nothing, but I got a dull headache that's just like screwing with me because I can't really read the computer screen very well.

794
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:09,000
It's almost like a slight migraine, but I don't think it is.

795
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:14,000
So if I sound a little different, I'm a little like subdued. That's what's going on.

796
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:21,000
So I'm going to get the hell off of here and, I don't know, take a muscle relaxer.

797
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,000
It was my first day back to work.

798
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:29,000
So I imagine you're probably pretty beat.

799
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:38,000
Oh, real quick. So you guys almost had a layoff before. Do you guys have enough work now or is it still kind of up in the air?

800
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:43,000
Oh, no, no. It was just a holiday deal.

801
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:44,000
Oh, okay. So they do...

802
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:52,000
They usually give us like a week off, but this year we got two and a half weeks.

803
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:54,000
Okay. Okay. That's cool.

804
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:59,000
I mean, we're slow, but we still have work.

805
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:03,000
Okay, good. That's good to hear. Good.

806
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:09,000
All right. Well, Rob, have a great night. Thank you, everybody, for joining us. Have a great night.

807
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:18,000
Good night, everybody.

808
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:40,000
Hey, where do they go? Where are the douchebags? Oh, my God. Someone took a dump in the corner. Oh, geez. Glad they're gone. Let's just hope they don't come back. Man, that smells.

809
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,000
Okay.
