Next up… things overheard in hell.
Time8 10 has a brand new album and movie!
Sweet.
You watched the news.
It looks grim.
Is it an apocalypse?
Inevitable?
We suggest you download all our podcasts beforehand and have multiple mobile chargers.
We have imposed apocalypse lights.
Make sure and have plenty of rope, strong threaded durable rope with a rating of 400
pounds or greater.
You need to know basic knots so you can go to the library and download the Boy Scouts
Handbook and have a reference to slip knots and other essential rope tricks.
Rope can be used in traps to catch food or would be predators.
Rope is a key ingredient in post apocalypse survival.
And now, deep thoughts with Mark.
What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
I may never know.
Guess what?
Earth gets a second moon this year.
This is actually an asteroid that will be pulled into orbit.
The asteroid is horseshoe shaped and will be visible for around 58 days.
This will start in a couple of weeks.
How about a buy one get one free moon pie?
It could be cooler than two moons.
Ok I keep hearing about this dead butt syndrome.
Sounds odd enough, but is it actually a medical condition?
Well, I guess it is.
What happens is sitting for long periods of time can cause glute muscles to weaken and
flexors to over tighten.
This can lead to dead butt syndrome, in which the muscles and joints are working inefficiently
making other muscles in areas of the body overcompensate.
So driving into work today, I think there is another syndrome.
This would be called, I'm pretty sure, dead brain syndrome.
Catch it at every stop light in America.
And now, in the because we need it department, there's a brand new Lays chip.
All dressed is not just a name.
These chips literally get dressed with all the flavors.
Well really just the four popular flavors, ketchup, barbeque, sour cream and onion, and
salt and vinegar.
The resulting flavor is pleasantly mouth puckering, tangy and sweet with subtly smoky and garlicky
notes in short.
They're irresistible and impossible to stop eating.
Ruffles is all dressed, are available now alongside Lay's newest flavor Kettle Cook
Cajun Spice, which sounds excellent too.
You can find Ruffles all dressed nationwide on grocery store shelves and on Snacks.com,
but they're only here for a limited time, so stock up quickly before the shelves clear.
And also, this is, they've been doing this in Canada for a long time and they love this
flavor.
So I'd have a feeling if it catches on in America, they may just not use it as a prop
gimmick but actually really keep it around.
But I don't know, we'll see what happens.
But I know that Canada has had it for a long time offering because I've been up to Canada
and I've seen it there, so anyhow.
And then just because we needed this, Hershey's is getting into energy drinks.
With its line of sweet snacks, Hershey's isn't known as a purveyor of diet foods.
However, the company's newest products are made specifically for those on a fitness kick.
All the use of weight loss drugs, Ozempi, Guagovi, it grows.
The 130-year-old confectionary company is adjusting to the new era by pushing further
into wellness category with protein powders and energy drinks and popular candy flavors.
The Hershey's company has struck a deal with C4 Energy, a top-selling supplement brand
that has gained popularity as people have looked to build muscle and work out.
More following the pandemic than ever, Hershey's namesake milk chocolate and Reese's peanut
butter and chocolate will soon be sold as protein powders and its Jolly Rancher candies
will be turned into bubbly energy drinks.
That's cool.
So maybe you get a sour lime one into an energy drink and I don't know, one of those watermelons
or one of those lemon ones or the limes.
So anyhow, what a great partnership this is going to be.
I mean, C4 is a pretty popular energy drink and of course Hershey's is a huge candy company,
so they could actually help each other out and we shall see.
It didn't say anything about if they're out on the shelves yet or not.
So anyhow, I suggest you go to your store if you're interested and ask them if they
have it.
Well then, I guess they're not out yet.
Now this is a bullet point that we're going to get to on the sports bastards when we record
this Tuesday or Wednesday.
At the end of week two encounter, NFL fans noticed that Cincinnati Bengals quarterback
Joe Burrow had quite the short exchange with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
But Burrow says there's nothing to read into the situation.
Turned on the Rich Eisen Show, Burrow shot down the theories from outsiders.
Well we had talked to each other before the game, he said.
After a game like that, not much to say.
I got a lot of respect for him and I think he has a lot of respect for me.
Sometimes you guys talk, you don't exactly know what's going on.
We had seen each other before the game, so it was no big deal.
So that settles that.
So there's no question that Bengals and the Chiefs are two parties in the NFL's hottest
new rivalry with Burrow and Mahomes as the figureheads in this battle.
So that's interesting and I think it's very believable.
They do talk to each other and they said they've talked to each other and they do say that
they're friendly with each other, just like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes are friends
and they talk to each other too.
So I think this is people just hungry to get a little bit more juice squeezed out of this
whole thing, this whole rivalry.
Well I mean if the Bengals can get it turned around, you will see them again and we will
probably play them in the postseason.
So there you go, save all the speculation for that and then have at it.
And in the new trend department, younger people, Gen Zers and possibly even Millennials, they
are into taking family gaps.
These are not just vacations, they're extended vacations of rest and recreation.
They do this a lot more than other generations did.
I've known people that went from one job to another or maybe they got terminated or laid
off or something and taken some time off.
I mean I have before and taken like a three month break, grabbed some unemployment and
just kind of take it easy for a while.
I get it.
But this is a whole family and everybody altogether taking family gaps.
And this is like a month, two months, maybe even three months.
It couldn't be longer than that.
But this is to refresh and recharge.
So you know I can kind of get this, you know, everybody works hard and that's part of the
mental health part of it, that's keeping your head right.
You know you need to stand back and you know kind of sort things out sometimes and you
know work is kind of like a clutter that clutters into your mind and you need to kind of like
sift through it and sort it out sometimes.
And I think this is a good idea but I still don't know how they afford it.
I want to know where this money tree is because a lot of people don't come into work a lot
of times so I don't know how they do it.
You know me, I have to.
So if not then yeah I'll probably be selling my guitar which I don't want to.
So therefore I will keep working.
So or any of my price CDs or my whatever's.
So alrighty.
And there's been a study by Travel Leisure and Home or Home and Leisure or something
like that magazine.
I didn't get the exact name.
I think it might be Home Travel Leisure etc. or something like that.
And this is people that realize they booked the wrong hotel and this is what people go
by.
This is what they go by saying that you know they look around and go oh shit I should have
booked this one because sometimes you go to Priceline right and when you're on Priceline
you know okay hey this is a great deal look at that it looks great.
Then you get there and it looks completely different than what you thought and it's just
like there's trash everywhere and people lying around in the parking lot needles you know
stuff like that.
So these are the top ones that they've given.
Okay the first one is a heat lamp in the bathroom.
You know I can see that.
I mean that's like so 1970s that's crazy.
Number one heat lamps don't work.
Number two who the hell is going to lie in the bathroom floor to get any type of a tan
at all because from what I understand those heat lamps are for tanning and that's where
the tanning bed idea came from I guess.
So I yeah I would say heat lamp is a very good indication that you did not book the
right hotel.
So another one is and this is funny I think all these are really obvious but quarter slots.
Quarter slots I believe they mean for the bed.
I mean I guess it could mean like I don't know what rubber machine or something but
the way I took quarter slots on this would I think would mean a bed like a vibrating
bed or something they have quarter slots.
There used to be hotels that offered that and he used to be out there vibrating beds
you know all that stuff and there's even hotels that paid by the hour for people doing something
sneaky on the sly.
So quarter slots were not real common but they did have some hotels with quarter slots
and I can't believe this even came up.
This must mean that there are hotels with quarter slots again if this is the same quarter
slots that I think.
The next one outdoor ice machine.
Yeah because okay I get it an outdoor ice machine would indicate that it is a strip
hotel and they're usually not that desirable.
They're usually really old hotels and musty and carpets all worn down and the toilet bowl
has a big crack in it.
You know stuff like that the sinks all gummed up you can't get the shower to drain right.
I get it and I've had to stay in those a few times and yeah so I guess that would probably
be true because you can't have the ice machine indoors because there's no area there's no
commons area so yeah I'm saying I outdoor ice machine would probably be correct on that
as well.
The next one is no breakfast meat.
Yeah yeah yep no breakfast meat definitely.
I mean they got like muffins and those danishes that are hard as a rock and those biscuits
that have been just warmed up a little bit and they're all dry and they just kind of
flake off and they don't have any taste and you don't have any meat to wash it down with
so I get that I'm well that's yeah yep get that exactly.
Then finally this one kind of caught me off guard because I didn't know there's hotels
that did this maybe it's in a different part of the country but it says here a Denny's
voucher free to egg breakfast.
I guess that's in lieu of not having a breakfast bar or breakfast at the place I guess.
I don't know if anyone knows any different about this send me an email but I'm going
to say that because they don't have a free breakfast there or they don't have the area
for a breakfast it might be a strip hotel or something that they say hey free breakfast
then when you go in there they go yeah it's a Denny's down a block down or right next
door or something so I think that might be how that works but okay so anyhow they think
if you go to a hotel with a Denny's voucher who I'd be I'd be very happy with that I'd
be like oh I get a breakfast down to Denny's cool I take my voucher and go down there and
eat but you know what I get it.
So that's the end of that list they didn't have that many on it but I thought it was
an interesting list and I agree with all of it which is rare.
Hey look I think we found land oh my god I think we're safe oh no it's the island of
horrible jokes.
In some endless in Hawaii laughter is found upon that a low ha is appropriate.
Swimming in toxic masculinity and wiping their ass with politically correct wash rags.
Two douchebags in a microphone invade your ear holes in three two one.
Hey there fuckstick you're just in time for brand new feature news nobody gives a shit
about.
A woman in California attempted to steal a truck in front of the CVS store she jumped
in the truck and tried to operate a manual transmission she couldn't figure out how so
all she did was tie up traffic and get herself caught.
Tomorrow morning while grinding your coffee beans for your double mocha latte remember
to not get your genitals caught in the grinder it really hurts who can afford plastic surgery.
Stay safe everyone.
Our constant pursuit for a real knee slapper it's strange insults from an alien real hilarity.
You're as useful as a car light with bells.
So I was doing a little bit of research and I noticed this survey I guess well not survey
but a study according to plush care some fast food restaurants are worse than others particularly
Five Guys which scored the number one spot in their ranking as the health unhealthiest
cheeseburger with a 50 point unhealthiest score the fries also weighed in as the unhealthiest
with 28 points.
Whataburger smash burger and Carl's jr. trailed behind on the list Five Guys however had a
33% more saturated fat than any other food cheeseburger on the list.
Geez.
To come to this conclusion the site analyzed each menu items calories sugar saturated fat
and sodium content based on the Department of Health's nutrient profiling method.
Ultimately healthy eating comes down to taking control of what you eat the online health
care platform reports that might mean avoiding fast food altogether but it can be as simple
as making an informed decision about which fast food chains to visit and which of their
products to choose Burger King and McDonald's somewhat shockingly tied for second lowest
unhealthiest scores at just 18 points.
They have a quarter of the saturated fat and let's see well it's basically saying that
let's see it's a lot lower it's got a scale point of heart disease risk and weight gain
and it's considerably lower than Five Guys and less than half of a Wendy's burger.
The lowest was Culver's at 17 points as for the unhealthiest chicken sandwich Popeyes
beloved Sammy scored 39 points to receive the title as unhealthiest while McDonald's
once again ranked as the healthiest the McChicken had nearly half the unhealthy points Burger
King's 31 points the KFC 27 points with just 14.
However there is of course a caveat while the McChicken is healthier Plush Care points
out that it doesn't necessarily make it a healthy sandwich while the McChicken is significantly
less unhealthy than other fast food chicken burgers it's still high in sodium fat and
calories because it is made of a ground chicken patty the nutrients it does not contain are
high quality Popeyes also ranked number one for unhealthiest chicken nuggets and fat burger
was the worst shake I don't know what fat burger is don't think I've ever even heard
of it but they're the worst shake.
So I could tell you how come Burger King and McDonald's has a more healthier burger and
the reason is because they've been around a lot longer than these other ones and they've
been getting heat for a lot longer than the other ones like Five Guys and Smash Burger
and all them they you know they have been around nearly as long as these two pioneers
and these two pioneers for years I mean even back when I was a kid I remember them getting
a lot of shit for for being unhealthy and being high in saturated fat a lot of chemicals
and all that so those two in particular had to kind of quell their way of doing things
somewhat because of the bad name that they were getting even back in the day so you're
going to see that like some of these ones that are been around longer if you notice
the ones that are longer seem to have a better healthy score whatever and I'd also like to
know about Taco Bell I mean I know they're just talking about burgers here but I would
like to talk about like the beef and stuff like that or maybe even go into roast beef
you know we have this newer one around here I don't believe it's nationwide it's called
Lion's Choice they're all roast beef Arby's of course started roast beef but I don't even
know if they anyone even buys roast beef from them anymore I think people pretty much forgotten
with their menu that they even serve roast beef so the Lion's Choice is basically almost
all roast beef and I don't know you know I like I would love to have an article that
delves into all that and I would also like an article that delves into the ingredients
to see if we have any known carcinogens in any of these foods I would I would guess that
there is probably a lot of chemicals that you do not want in your body in all of these
foods I don't know for sure just just just a hunch so anyhow allegedly and all that good
shit so anyhow I guess the whole moral of the story is is go to sit down restaurant
if you want to be healthier or better yet stay home and make something healthy what
a novel idea huh and now I'm going to go into the Brooklyn goldfish some of you probably
already heard about this because it's a really neat story and of course a lot of you have
not I'm sure but in Brooklyn there was this horrible little at the corner of a road in
Brooklyn there is one of those surrounded by a concrete barrier there is like a bunch
of mud where they did construction and nobody put anything there just a bunch of mud so
very geniusly someone shoveled it out put in a liner put in water and put in goldfish
and oh those little lily pads and stuff and it was really cool I mean right in the middle
of the city and all this garbage and something that would look like hell it did look like
hell so it actually did something original and people are going by you know a lot of
people went by and fed the goldfish kids marveled at it it was such a unique idea well some
idiot destroyed it and I know they're they're building it back but I just you know I'm just
like man you know I it's you can really really really get down on people whenever something
like this happens and there's still a lot of good people left in the world and I would
say that probably more people than not are still good but it would seem like in this
day and age that the bad outshadows because there is a lot more bad there's a lot more
people on earth and there's a lot more opportunity for people to be bad so anyhow it's cool if
you ever get a chance just putting Brooklyn goldfish side of the road or something google
it or as the younger generation they don't google anymore they search it search it and
take a look at it's pretty cool I don't think they ever caught the idiot responsible or
idiots that did that but why in the world would some idiot want to do something like
that what kind of sense does that make but then again I guess it's as much sense as just
going by and murdering someone for no reason too so so and also in addition to this people
have been going on reddit and they've been bitching or mouthing off about this and finding
some fault in it and here's here's a few of them at best these fish might be swept in
a rainstorm down a storm drain and become an invasive species in a waterway somewhere
the poster wrote no we've had goldfish around forever and they are not an invasive species
they haven't morphed into some like weird fish that can like walk on land and go into
water amphibious type of thing they don't go around and eat a bunch of other species
nothing like that not like the Japanese carp and I forgot the other one that's even worse
or the or the fish with human teeth I forgot what they call them all those are invasive
species that someone brought over here from usually like Asia somewhere around there and
then they learned to adapt and became like our worst enemy over here and they kill our
you know our national our natural wildlife and really hurt the ecological system so another
person wrote at worst they'll suffocate in their own waste burning gills from chlorine
diseased overcrowded and stressed the temperature swings alone from such a shallow puddle could
kill them boy glad they're looking on the bright side huh this did ignite attentions
from the nape Jaquan Irving one of the organizers of what's now being called Gav's fish pond
has said the fish are being fed multiple times a week and that the group intend to install
lights and plants in the pit I'm with them after Campbell's rescue attempt Irving and
other members of the group monitor the fish all day we are here to maintain peace and
tranquility a group member told Brooklyn paper during August 13 visit we can't raise enough
funds we plan to give the kids in the neighborhood the goldfish the group has started to go from
me to help build a better habitat including an outside ventilation system for them so
they can survive the seasons so the community continue to enjoy the beauty of nature as
of August 14 donors had contributed more than 1300 to an online fundraiser which has a
$2,500 goal Benjamin Rosenblum a veteran of the founder of the wet pet vet a mobile fish
health clinic and lab said the creatures are likely common or comic goldfish small cheap
species and often used as feeders for other marine animals but even though small fish
need up to 40 gallons of water on their own and while they're pretty adaptable Rosenblum
said unfiltered water can lead to a buildup in nitrates ammonia it can kill fish extreme
temperature changes can also shock fish making them ill or killing them the best outcome
for these fish would be removing into an appropriate very large aquarium or pond he said their
water coming directly from the tap without proper conditioning means it contains chlorine
which is which is toxic to the fish and especially damaging to their gill tissue I could go for
a long time on why this is an inappropriate environment for these fish for many many reasons
but the bottom line is that keeping them in such environment is cruel and should not be
undertaken okay then maybe not but I can also tell this as an owner of a koi pond for many
years until I had so much problems with it I had to put in a rock garden this year goldfish
to actually survive being froze over this koi pond the I have this heating element it
went out and it froze over when last year we had a week of like 30 below and pretty
much nothing else well during that time it froze solid and then in the coming weeks after
that when it warmed up to 30 or something it all melted out the fish were fine and they
were all frozen all the way through so I don't know how that works but they were fine and
they were still swimming around and doing good till I had to release them to a neighborhood
area that has goldfish and fill in that koi pond with a rock garden which does look neat
so anyhow I don't know I like the idea of having it and I say just switch the fish out
after a while if the fish start to get ill take them to a better habitat and then put
some more fish in there this pond looks so cool I couldn't imagine just getting rid of
it I'm sure like kids love it I mean it's in the middle of a bustling city a huge city
and it seems to me like it's like a little glimpse of happiness in a world of some things
that are not so happy so I don't think there's anything wrong with that a little morale booster
so anyhow I hope they get it figured out and they can still have fish
Yo mama's so old she walked out of the museum and the alarm went off
Have you ever wondered where something came about?
Have you ever looked at something and said, hey I wonder what the origin of that is?
Well so have we. That's why we give you the origin of...
The origin of Coca-Cola. On May 8th 1886 Dr. John Pemberton served the world's first Coca-Cola
Jacobs Pharmacy in Atlanta Georgia. The drink was served as a tonic for common ailments.
And now deep thoughts with Mark.
If I was to speak into a megaphone backwards would it then sound like a whisper?
I may never know.
Now it's time for pick up lines from a loser.
Hey girl are you a beaver? Cause daaamn.
Two douchebags and a microphone says.
You ever dream about eating chocolate pudding and wake up with a spoon in your ass?
Just asking.
Hi all this is Chicago. I am the most dangerous city in North America.
You can't touch me.
Oh yeah? This is Kansas City here. Hold my beer bitch.
Next up. Things overheard in hell.
John Wayne Gasey is in charge of human resources.
Just got back this afternoon from a quick trip out of town.
We were supposed to go to the Mozart Festival in Sedalia Missouri.
So like I mentioned numerous times before that I was going to Mozart Fest in Sedalia.
Well Mother Nature gave us concert goers a good kick in the ass.
We made it to Sedalia just barely and the entire show was cancelled due to the extreme muddy conditions.
So I got on Instagram and messaged Glenn Hughes.
Believe it or not he usually answers.
I suggest he have his people called Knuckleheads.
They've had numerous impromptu concerts held there.
One was Sebastian Bach. He was held up in Kansas City for some reason going from one place to another.
They intercepted him and he did a show there impromptu.
They just sent out the notices at night and they filled the place just by Facebook and Insta getting messages out.
Hey Knuckleheads having Sebastian Bach.
This has happened quite a few times and Knuckleheads is a place to do it.
They have enough of a social media presence and people know to check their places on social media to see what's going on.
Because it does change sometimes rather quickly like that.
So anyhow he did answer me but later they were already in central Kansas headed to Denver.
They have one show in Denver Tuesday and one in Colorado Springs Wednesday.
So they opted to head that way instead of trying to look for a gig.
I'm pretty sure you know the insurance pays for it on something like that.
They're not going to come all the way to Sedalia Missouri and not get paid.
So they were you know I'm pretty sure they got a check cut and they're probably good about that.
They're like alright we got our money so let's just go ahead and go to Colorado.
I don't blame them but you know I mean it'd been cool if they could have stopped by like a place like Knuckleheads or wherever.
I was saying Knuckleheads because they do that. They do impromptu shows a lot.
But anyhow it didn't work out so I even sent Knuckleheads a message.
They never replied so you know what fuck you guys.
No I love Knuckleheads.
So Val and I decided to you know we're in Sedalia and we're at this barbecue place.
Caddy's barbecue or something like that.
K-A-H-D-E-S and it's in an old part of it is in an old train that used to run through Sedalia.
It's a passenger train and part of the seats are in there and people wait a long time to get in there.
We opted not to go in there. We're like just wherever you can fit us in.
So we got right in and after we got done eating we're like well shit you know.
I had that place in Sedalia already booked the comfort in.
So you know I looked at Val and Val looked at me and we're like you know what.
Hey let's try to find your lake house.
Her parents lake house when she was growing up.
It took forever. All these winding roads and everything.
If anyone's familiar with Lake of the Ozarks it's just I mean you think something looks like it's just right down.
You look on a map or on Google now and you look just right down there and it's like a half inch away.
You're like oh it's right there.
But really in real time with the hills and the steep inclines and the twisty turns and all that in the hills.
It's actually about an hour away.
So we spent a good amount of time looking for this house.
So we finally located it.
We had to call a couple of people that she knew growing up that she's still friends with.
And they had a lake house right next door and she told them you know it's over there near this place called Cliff Drive.
So we went over there and we found it.
We got out on the dock and enjoyed the sunset.
She's still good friends with the current owners.
She knows who owns that house and you know that lake house now.
Val messaged them but they didn't respond until we were gone.
And anyhow they said hell you guys can stay there if you wanted to.
But we were already out of there and on our way to either going back or going to Lake of the Ozarks Bagnell Dam area.
Camden Tent something like that.
So we would have gotten a hold of Rob but it was too late.
You know he has to work Monday morning.
This is a Sunday evening or at night right around 8 o'clock give or take.
So I didn't want to bother him.
So anyhow the Chiefs game started.
We both agreed not to drive back to Sedalia.
So we just let that room go.
Paid for it.
No big deal.
Then we're you know taking on the task of booking a place on the spot.
Mile marker 3.5.
So I'm sitting there I go alright alright.
I got pretty good signal here.
So I start looking.
Sedalia is an hour and a half away.
So we got on booking.com and found us a night resort.
Not too horribly priced.
But this is the slow season 2.
We upgraded to a Lakeview room thanks to a very pleasant front desk guy who I looked on my Visa card.
It doesn't appear like he charged me for it either.
He's supposed to charge me like 40 bucks or something for the upgraded room.
I think he just said that to cover himself and like maybe forgot to charge it or something.
I gave him a pretty good tip.
He's a hell of a guy.
So you know like I said I was in Rob's town so he gets up too early.
So I didn't want to bother him.
He's probably already in bed because he gets up at like 4.30 or 5.
So we find this place and it was called the Resort at Lake of the Ozarks.
And it has a huge swim up bar plus huge outdoor bar and grill.
This place is so cool.
It actually has full sized palm trees there that they keep warm during the winter.
And I mean it really looks like a place tropical because everything is all green and lush and beautiful.
You have the lake.
You have the swim up bar.
The huge heated swimming pool with glass all around it.
You're overlooking the lake.
Lake of the Ozarks that overlooks a beautiful sunset.
It is a fantastic place and I got in for it for not that much more.
I mean it really was not that bad a price.
I was really kind of surprised.
But like I said it's the slow season so you know it's pretty cool.
It had a huge indoor sports bar named the Encore.
It's actually the official chiefs bar of Lake of the Ozarks and it was.
Everywhere there was big screens all over everywhere.
I mean everywhere you look there's a big screen.
They had miles of them.
I mean just all around there.
I mean even on the ceiling.
And it was all glass to where you could look out and see the view of the lake.
It's just a beautiful place.
So there's this old white haired man with long hair at the main bar.
And he was just sitting there right.
So I didn't know but anyhow he was the owner.
So every one of these TVs that were everywhere they had the chiefs on.
So you know every time the chiefs would score the first moments.
They finally scored the first moments of the second quarter.
The old man, the old white haired man and I later found out he was the owner.
He turned out to be the owner but I found out a little bit later.
But I was like what the hell is that guy doing?
He had a real police megaphone.
Really loud one.
And he started cheering and pretty much blowing everybody's ears out.
He goes and the chiefs score and there's like I don't know.
There's a fan from Atlanta there.
They're probably up there vacationing or something.
And anyhow he like went up right next to him and started going and the chiefs score.
And the guy turned out to be pretty cool.
He was laughing and everything.
But I was like sitting there going it was just weird because it was like what the hell is going on here?
You know we come down here with the Lake of the Ozarks.
And we don't expect to one find a huge chiefs bar there.
And two get into a really good resort like that.
Not have a swim up bar.
I mean it was just a fantastic place and we're going to go back that's for sure.
But it's called the resort at Lake of the Ozarks and it's at Bagnell Dam area.
And it was just fantastic.
I mean we had a great time.
Yeah I didn't get to see my show.
I didn't get to see my boy Glenn Hughes.
I didn't get to see Head East.
I didn't get to see Starship with Mickey Thompson.
Didn't get to see any of that.
But you know what we had a fantastic time.
It was great.
And we will probably spend some time down there at that resort and the old lake house too.
So I would call this a fun successful trip.
We would have booked another night there but I had a doctor appointment at 1.30.
So I had to be back in Kansas City.
So we had to leave relatively early.
It's about two and a half hours away from Kansas City proper where we live.
So we had to get out fairly early and it sucked because I really wanted to go down there.
And go back to the Encore the swim up pool.
And hang out there and just you know watch the sun come up.
But it was cloudy and it was misty and rain too.
So it wasn't necessarily the best weather for it.
But yeah we had a great time and this is a great place.
We're going to be going back to it.
Oh and the Chiefs ended up winning another Thriller.
Another Nut Tugger down to the wire like every one of them has been.
And Topher and I will have a lot to say about this tomorrow when we record the Sports Bastards down at the City Market.
So we will talk about that more then. I have a lot of stuff that I want to get into.
We have some bullet points that are really good this week.
We have some more idiotic comments.
But this time it's not just head coaches.
It's players and everybody.
Whenever they say something stupid we catch it.
We write it down and we relay it to you.
So I believe Chris Collinsworth has a few.
Just about everybody has a few.
I think even Al Michaels might have said a couple.
Which is weird because he usually doesn't.
But anyhow I have them and we're going to be going through them.
We're going to go through our picks which was trash.
And we're going to go through our picks for next week.
Which is going to be probably trash too.
So now we go to a neat little story here I would like to relay to everybody.
A man discovers in California that he's been paying his neighbors electric bill for 15 years.
Yeah 15 years.
So here is what happened.
His suspicions were raised when his bill seemed unusually high.
Despite his best efforts to reduce energy consumption.
In a starling revelation a resident of California discovered he had been footing the bill for his neighbors electricity for over 15 years.
According to ABC News.
Ken Wilson is a Pacific Gas and Electric PG&E customer who lives alone in an apartment complex in Vacaville since 2006.
His suspicions were raised when his bill seemed unusually high.
Despite his best efforts to reduce energy consumption.
An inquiry by the local power company uncovered the shocking mistake.
Exposing the 15 year mix up that had Mr. Wilson unknowingly shoulder the financial burden of his neighbors electricity usage as well.
Before the discovery Mr. Wilson had been taking proactive steps to reduce his soaring electricity bills.
By cutting back on usage and purchasing a device to track the wattage of his appliances.
Despite these efforts he notices meter bill continuing to rise even when his breaker was switched off.
That's a pretty smart idea he did that.
Before the discovery I had been trying to conserve electricity and lower my costs is what he said.
It was really getting expensive. I kept going outside to check my meter and I couldn't believe it.
Even after I turned off my breakers I kept going outside to check my meter to see if it was still running and it was still running.
Mr. Wilson told local TV station KMAX KOVR.
Suspicions he contacted Pacific Gas Electric to investigate presenting his findings and the measures he had taken to reduce usage.
PJ&E launched an inquiry into ultimately confirmed his suspicions.
Turns out he had been inadvertently paying his neighbors electricity bills since 2009.
Three years after moving into his apartment.
Our preliminary investigation has found the meter number for the customer's apartment was being billed to another apartment since potentially 2009.
A spokesperson for PJ&E said,
We sincerely apologize for the oversight and regret any convenience caused by this duration of this issue.
The spokesman added, PJ&E acknowledged and accepted responsibility for the mistake assuring Mr. Wilson they would rectify the issue.
Now when they're saying rectify the issue I'm thinking they owe him money with interest.
He needs to figure out every one of those electric bills and all the overage and he needs to get that in a check with whatever the going interest rate is right now.
And anything short than that is a lawsuit.
And I would sue the piss out of them because this type of stupidity cost this man a lot of money that he could have put in the stock market.
That he could have put in savings. He could have saved that money.
He could have put in the stock market and made a lot of money.
I mean he could have started his own business with this stuff.
I mean who knows what he could have done with that money but he didn't have it because these knuckleheads that couldn't figure this shit out.
So I'm telling you he better be getting a lump sum of quite a bit of money plus a little, we're sorry, pat on the ass with a little bit of more money because this is ridiculous.
And also I'm going to be going over this next subject with Topher tomorrow because it is a sports related subject.
It's disturbing.
It has to do with Jerry Jones. I think about everything to do with Jerry Jones anymore is disturbing pretty much.
So I guess Jamie Foxx was doing a live spot.
Maybe it's on the internet or something. I'm not for sure.
I read this briefly this morning before we had to take off and come back here for my doctor appointment.
But I was like hmm. So from what I gather if I read it correctly in the amount of time that I took which is hardly anything was Jamie Foxx is doing some sort of an internet show.
And he was with Jerry Jones and they were going through the locker room and he was talking about football and talking about the team and everything.
And suddenly Jerry Jones started talking about how big one of their genitals were of the players.
He said that I don't know if it gave the name or not. If it did gave the name I still don't want to give the name because I mean I wouldn't want you know this is a private thing.
But he said so and so one of the players had an eight and a half inch dick.
This is what he told Jamie Foxx. Jamie Foxx quickly cut off the video.
I guess a lot of people seen it because it was live on Facebook or something or live on YouTube or something like that.
Jerry Jones. Number one. Why are you worried about anybody's dick let alone the people that work for him on that team.
Number two. Why in the hell would you broadcast this to everybody.
I mean it's not like it's a horrible thing to be known for but it's probably something he really didn't want to hear.
Especially coming out of the owner of the Dallas Cowboys mouth and especially live on YouTube or whatever.
Fasted X or whatever they were doing the spot on.
Jerry Jones. I think that would be another reason he needs to leave the NFL besides everything else.
That team is falling apart. I mean the Ravens let him back in it yesterday.
The Ravens were killing him and I think they kind of let the foot off the pedal and kind of let him back in.
But there was never a doubt on that game that the Ravens just buried him and the Ravens were 0-2.
The Cowboys are horrible. Dak Prescott has the most passing yards of any other quarterback in both leagues.
And no wins to show for it except one.
How can that happen? How can a quarterback be so successful with stats but not win a game?
I'll tell you how. He's not a leader. He's not a guy that can come in there like Patrick Mahomes.
Patrick Mahomes had a horrible game. He threw like 150 yards or something.
He didn't play very well. He admittedly played horribly.
And they still won the game.
And this is because, well one, Mike McCarthy is no Andy Reid by any measure.
Mike McCarthy is probably not that good of a coach from what I can tell and what a lot of other people think too.
But Dak Prescott obviously is not a leader if you can have stats that great and still lose.
And then lose in the playoffs all the time. Never making it to the promised land.
But he's always been a stats guy but he's never been a guy to win the games.
I mean, Jeff George was like that. He had all kinds of great stats but never could take him to the promised land.
There's a lot of other ones too that were like that that could never take him even to the Super Bowl.
Let alone the playoffs.
Interesting stuff. I don't know how I got on Dak.
Well actually, Dak irritates the piss out of me because he should be winning more.
Not like I like the Cowboys or nothing.
But every time I see his stats they look great and I look at his wins and they look horrible.
So that's what I got with that.
I'm going to end that because tomorrow we're going to be going more in depth of it.
Topher and I on the sports bastards.
You won't hear this until later but if you're at the city market come by and say something.
As a matter of fact, people will say something because we have people chime in all the time.
So if there's people down there, the last time we were there there weren't very many people there so we had nobody chiming in.
But there's very, very many people down there.
We'll get people to chime in especially now in football season.
People like to boast and pound their chest about their team.
They like to mother crank the other teams. You know, stuff like that.
So anyhow, should be a fun time and like always going to be broke down into two podcasts.
It'll be over three hours like always because we can't shut our yappers in under three hours.
That's for sure. So we're always blithering something.
Oh no, looks like the show's over kids.
Mark has explosive diarrhea and can't afford a wireless mic.
Fear not assholes. They'll be back invading your ear holes soon.
