The Daily Deucebag Pledge

Go ahead and assume we got the story wrong. At least we admit it. Not like all those other guys, we can and will lie if it makes the story better.
Two Deucebags and a Microphone
We Talk
Jesus
Everybody knows Mark is a fucking idiot. But Mark would like to take this moment to remind you. You're listening to this fucking idiot.
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 the Goatee. The Goatee is a beard style that dates back to ancient Greece and Rome and is named for its resemblance to a goat's beard.
The Goatee has been worn by many famous men throughout history, including Uncle Sam, Henry M. Hoyt, and Mr. Spock.
The gob ham was often depicted with a goatee, and in medieval and Renaissance art, Satan was depicted with a goatee as well.
The goatee became popular again in the 1940s as a defining trait of the beatniks and jazz musicians.
It fell out of favor again in the 1960s, but became fashionable again in the 1990s and 2000s.
The term goatee originated in the late 20th century. It was originally called a goatee.
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, and who can afford plastic surgery? Stay safe everyone!
Two douchebags and a microphone! I'm Mark.
And I am Rob.
Hi everybody, thank you for joining us. This is a couple days before Thanksgiving.
Hey Rob, what do you have planned for Thanksgiving?
Actually, my son and his girlfriend are coming over.
And I believe her mom and sister and niece, plus we're having my daughter, her boyfriend, my grandson, and the kids' mom.
That sounds cool. Sounds good.
I've been busy busting my ass playing this voice.
Yeah, you know what, it'll be worth it man. Great family.
Oh yeah it is.
Thanksgiving is a great holiday because it brings people together.
And remember, if you want them to leave, start talking politics.
No, I'll start talking douchebag stuff.
Oh yeah, that'll give them the lead real quick.
Alright, I got it.
Okay, let's start off on something a little bit light here.
I have some emails, dude, and there's a couple of them that's really cool because someone remembers the car that cut me off and the people that threatened me.
You know what, I'll get into it a little bit later.
They told me what actually happened because I obviously couldn't remember it.
So, anyhow.
Much like the Rockefeller Christmas tree, a seasonal favorite has returned for the holidays.
On November 20th, McDonald's announced that the McRib will be returning to participating restaurants starting December 3rd.
For a limited time. In addition to the return of the polarizing die-cast sandwich, the Golden Arches has dropped in a whole lot of McRib sauce.
A half gallon jug of tangy sandwich sauce that folks can use wherever they wish.
You ought to see it. It's a half gallon jug of McRib sauce.
Isn't that cool? Oh damn. I know.
So, anyhow, you know, it's also going on to say that they are using a different onion because of the big E. coli thing on the McRibs.
But they say it still tastes fantastic. Let's see.
Okay, so you can buy the whole lot of McRib sauce, a half gallon of it, for $19.99 online only at WholeLotOfMcRibSauce.com.
Starting November 5th, 10am Eastern Time while supplies last.
Anyhow, they went on to say the McRib is more than a sandwich. It's part of a culture. It's a legend. It's an event.
Said the Chief Marketing Officer at McDonald's. So, anyhow, that's all I'm going to go into that one.
That's all anyone needs to know. You can get a whole lot of McRib sauce for $19.99.
And I'm not sure if they charge for shipping or not. I don't know if that's a whole ball of wax or if they go, hey, wait, wait, wait a minute there.
We're going to need $10 for shipping. I don't know anything of that. All I know is the half gallon jug of sauce is $19.99.
So, anyhow, Rob, that was my first story.
Okay, first off, I have something to say to Facebook, aka Metta.
Fakebook? Okay.
Yeah, yeah. Okay, you know how you come across friends you might know and you have a list of people?
Uh-huh.
And you can add them or remove them. Okay, well, I ran across my neighbor who lives two doors down from me.
Uh-huh.
She's like my mom's age. She's disabled. We have each other's phone numbers, but she's on Facebook too, so we figured that. You know, and I found her.
Okay.
Okay. Here's what happens when I'm in people you might know and I hit add friend. And I'm already, this is like my 20th, 21st time in the last two days.
Okay.
I get this big box in the center says, can't send requests. It looks like you may not know this person. Send requests to people you know personally to see their updates on Facebook.
But it was a friend's suggestion.
Two doors down from me. I literally know her.
And it's a friend's suggestion too. That's fucking crazy. They suggest a friend and then they go, well, no, you don't actually know her. We don't think that's stupid.
I think it's the first time I've ever had this happen.
That's what the hell you want to do.
I'm going to go down tomorrow night. I'm going to have her pull me up. See what happens.
I know what. Okay.
I just had to mention that.
AI is probably running that division now and AI is just closed captioning. Any, any more. You cannot tell what it says because AI doesn't know how to read it properly.
And as a matter of fact, there's this tennis match in Europe.
Okay.
That's right.
There's this tennis match in Europe and AI kept following a bald headed guy that was a referee.
They, AI thought the bald headed guy was actually the ball.
His bald head.
Yes. So that's all you need to know about AI. AI does what it thinks it needs to do.
So closed captioning anymore. You cannot, most of it's, you can't read it.
It doesn't make sense because half the time the AI does not capture what it says correctly and it comes up with some stupid shit sometimes.
I mean, and sometimes it doesn't make sense at all.
So, so there you go. That's what I'll bet you anything.
It's AI is doing that division of meta and AI thinks that you don't know her.
What? Who knows? Whatever.
So, but I mean, I thought that was the whole point of fake book was people that you may know or people you don't know, but you may get along with adding them and talking to them.
Right. I thought, wasn't that the whole point?
Right. Yeah. Well, I found a lot of my old friends from school, my old friends, family, you know, no, I know.
I find somebody that lives two doors down from me and they won't let me at them. Like what the hell?
I got a little upset at first, but then I started laughing about it. Like what the hell?
Oh, and last night I'm watching the Monday Night Football game, right?
It's between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Baltimore Ravens.
And did you know that the Los Angeles Chargers have a place kicker named Dicker? So they have a kicker.
I've seen that.
Yeah, they have a kicker named Dicker. Dicker the Kicker.
I just love that.
Yeah, I've seen her Facebook post.
Yeah, like, hey, he's Dicker the Kicker.
I definitely enjoyed that one. I'm like, you know, that's like one of those things like God has a sense of humor. Yes. Yes.
All right. Well, they are some.
You want to hear some of the terms that were the most popular terms in 2024?
Sure.
OK, and these are the this is the hipsters. OK, this is the zeers, maybe some millennials and whatever the hell is behind the zeers.
I don't know, whoever they are, whatever generation you are.
So anyhow, bougie.
We all know what that is. It's an adjective that means rich, luxurious, special or fancy.
We've heard that one before, right? And we reported on it, right?
Right.
Bussin, an adjective that means amazing or really good.
Here's one for you, Rob. Let's see if you can catch it.
Drip.
Have any idea?
No idea.
No.
Nope.
I'm sorry. I didn't hear you say dull.
An adjective that means stylish or sophisticated clothes or appearance.
How they get drip out of that. I have no fucking clue.
Extra.
I can tell the opposite.
Yeah, you were.
That's what drip used to mean. You weren't cool. You were just.
Yeah, yeah. It's like, oh, that guy's such a drip.
It meant like you didn't dress nice. You didn't.
Your hair wasn't, you know, you didn't have a nice haircut.
You didn't have a good personality. They go, oh, man, that guy's such a drip.
Yeah, we were out of the water fountain. You were out of the water faucet.
You were just drip.
Yeah. Yep.
Extra.
That goes back to the 50s.
Yeah, yeah, it does. That's how long it's been used.
Well, I guess the zeers have commandeered it and made drip something completely different now.
How about extra?
Got any idea what that means?
Add on.
An adjective that means dramatic attention grabbing or too much.
How about fire? I bet you can get fire.
OK, yeah.
I bet you can get fire. What does fire mean?
Great, awesome, badass.
Pretty close. Yeah. OK.
OK, according to this, fire means hot, trendy, amazing or on point.
So you're pretty much right.
You know what goat stands for, don't you?
The greatest of all time. Yep.
How about goosey like like the closing clothing? Gucci?
That's the only thing I would put it as.
It means good, cool or going well.
Legit. We even use legit.
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
It's an adjective that means something is authentic or genuine.
Right. Vibe check.
We've reported on that one before, but I think it's pretty easy to guess even if we didn't.
Right. Right.
It's a phrase that assesses the overall atmosphere or energy of a situation.
How about riding shotgun? We all remember that.
Remember you call shotgun and you wouldn't, you know. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, you wouldn't have to ride in the back.
That means you got to ride, you're the second hand man. Yes.
Yeah. Like we used to.
That's how our pecking order was back in the day.
Remember, I'm like, hey, Rob, I need you up with me, man.
You know, I'm going to be driving, you know, I'm kind of lit.
So I need you over there telling me if I'm fucking up.
So Rob sits, you know. Yeah. Yeah. Yep.
That is the second in command of that their party.
So, yeah, hey, I'll writing shotgun and idiomatic expression that refers to the person occupying the passenger seat in a car.
It's the same thing. OK.
How about coded? I don't have a clue.
Well, it doesn't mean you just died and they're trying to bring you back to life.
What it means it refers it refers to something that shares traits with something else.
So like, I don't know, like grass and bushes, you know, they're coded, they're cut, you know, something like that.
I don't know. That's a horrible. OK. OK.
Roman Empire.
I don't have a clue. OK. I know this one.
I know what I know this one. It originated on Tick Tock and refers to something that someone can't stop thinking about.
So like if you like this chick and you go, oh, man, I am so Roman Empire on her.
I mean, you can't stop thinking about her or I don't know. Maybe someone had great lasagna. Right.
Oh, man, I am so Roman Empire on that lasagna. Yeah. Yeah.
It means you can't quit thinking about it. So pretty cool. I like Roman Empire.
I think that's a pretty cool way of of explaining something like that, isn't it?
Thank you for that one. Now you got me want a woman that can cook lasagna.
You know where my mind's at.
Well, now you know where my mind's at.
A woman that can cook lasagna. I hear harps and angels, harps and angels.
I see my next wife.
I never even correlated that. I bet there's something to that, Rob.
All right. Next one. Told you I was in a mood tonight.
I know you are. I can tell. And also your voice is still singing. You're in a good place, Rob.
Yes, I am. That's fucking awesome.
Very happy for you. Very happy for you. I was really worried about you, dude.
Anyhow, I'm good. That's all that matters. Yes. You know me. You know me.
Now I get back up and I keep going. You always you always manage to keep going.
Yep. That's awesome. All right.
Beige flag refers to characteristics. That's why I went in to start and say it refers to characteristics that are slightly out of the ordinary but unremarkable.
I get that. It was it was slightly different, but not enough to go. Oh, wow.
It's going to be a beige flag. All right. And guy it.
I think by now most people know what guy it means. It means a nice thick ass. Who doesn't like that? Right.
Anyhow, it's an acronym for a girl. Your ass is.
Again, something to it, Rob. Something to it.
It guy. It is an acronym for a girl. Your ass is thick. So now I know what guy it came from.
I never knew what what it actually came from. So girl, your ass is thick.
OK. I mean, I can't believe I never thought of that. You put it together, you know.
So anyhow. All right, Rob, you got something.
If I quit hitting the microphone and prime making horrible noises on this podcast. Yeah.
Well, I got to go sad on us. It's a sad day.
Oh, oh, oh. Well, actually, it's four days ago.
OK, so it's a sad week in rock. How's that? Yeah. Sad week in rock. OK.
Alice Brock, the woman who was the real life inspiration for the iconic Arlo Guthrie song.
Alice's restaurant has died. I would have thought she would have been dead years ago. Wow.
Guthrie announced on social media on Friday. She was 83. Wow.
We worked together on various projects during the next few decades.
We remained friends while our lives kept us busy.
Guthrie wrote she was a no nonsense gal with a great sense of humor.
As WBUR reported, she died Thursday after suffering health issues, including COPD.
Alice's death just before the holiday is notable given that song is now known as a Thanksgiving classic.
In nineteen sixty seven, Alice's restaurant got to read Chronicles of the Worst True Story of how he was disqualified from the VIA Amor graph over the course of his recorded 18 minute monologue.
Huh. OK. And it goes on and gives her story.
But yeah, she just passed away this week. I'm like you. I get I didn't know she was still alive.
I would have figured she'd been dead years ago because, you know, you kind of think that a woman that owns a restaurant would be older.
And that was what what year was it again that it came out?
Uh, sixty seven is when that song came out. That's like 50 years. OK, so I guess she's like 30.
Wow. No, actually about 50, 60 years, a 50 seven and 19.
It does go on to say that in 1969, she published a cookbook called Alice's Restaurant.
Oh, awesome. I'll look that up. I have seen that. I have seen that.
I have not. But that's that would be cool. I mean, that would be something I would get into.
I may lend autobiographies, but, you know, every now and then you got to reach for something else.
I don't like fiction books. I know so many people love fiction books. I don't like them. I never have.
But that would be cool. That would be a a a a freshening up, if you will, of what I read.
Hmm. I'll look it up. I'll see if I can't find that.
Unless you get some good meals out of it. That's damn right. You're right. Like lasagna.
Right. Yeah. I'll bet you Alice's Restaurant had great lasagna. What do you think?
Oh, had to have. Oh, yeah. Well, why else would he sing about it if it didn't have great lasagna?
Yeah. I mean, hell yeah. I'd sing about it if it had great lasagna.
Would you? Oh, definitely. Yeah. All right.
So you said you had a couple of pieces of sad news. You got something else coming up?
Yeah, I got one more. Another obituary.
Okay. And I mentioned him here a while back.
You did it, Rob. The world's oldest man.
Yeah. John Alfred Tenniswood died Monday at age one hundred and twelve at the Hollys Rest Home in Southport on England's West Central Coast.
His family said. Tim's would was surrounded by music and love in his final days.
He is survived by daughter Susan grandchildren and Nachika.
Tobi and Robert and great grandchildren, Tabitha, Callum and Neve.
Neve. He was born August 26, 1912.
To add in John Bernard Tinsdale in the reign of King George the fifth.
The great grandfather of King Charles the third and grandfather to late Queen Elizabeth the second.
Wow. May he rest in peace.
Yep. Thank you, Rob.
Was that it of the whole article? Yeah, yeah.
Let's take our first break and I'm going to come back with some emails and there are some interesting ones on here.
A couple of people got me really good. So anyhow, we'll we'll be right back.
You watched the news. It was grim.
This is an apocalypse. We suggest you download our podcast beforehand and have multiple mobile chargers.
Homemade dye from plants are essential.
The dyes can be used to mark locations on trees, even the color clothing or to be laid out to where footprints or paw prints could be left.
The dye can be placed on the ground around the perimeter of your dwelling.
So if you have to leave, evidence will be present to assess the situation.
And now deep thoughts with Mark.
A padlock is turning a door into a wall.
Yeah.
Oh, shit. What's that over there?
Oh, no. It's silent. Horrible jokes.
The second man explained to his doctor, you have to help me. I'm shrinking. The doctor said I will. You have to be a little patient.
To them, but it's in a crash cart will be right back.
Small twigs around the base of your area of camp. That way, if there is an intruder trying to sneak up on you, you can hear the twigs quake and be alerted about them immediately.
When taking a shower, remember to scrub your asshole with soapy water because nobody likes a stinky asshole.
This is Crotch, the old Saint Prick. I'm the guy that comes in after Christmas and gouses all your dreams and hopes.
Oh, well, look here. My first letter is from little Timmy from Akron, Ohio.
It says, Dear Crotch, the old Saint Prick, I would love to have a new bicycle.
Well, little Timmy, I have a poem for you.
It goes, Roses are red, violets are blue. You're not getting dick, so fuck you.
Jam X. What the hell happened?
You were the generation of change.
You never wanted to be one of them. At the feet.
Spoke for you.
Hunk the man.
Hunk the system.
What the hell happened?
The generation of angst.
The generation of noncompliance.
Is now buying a boat.
You're really fed up to kill someone dangled a dollar near you.
Great job, Xers. Everything's ruined.
Two douchebags and microphone on Mark.
And I'm Rob.
I say we gotta get him some.
The man asked for some, we gotta get him.
I don't know, I probably couldn't say his name.
Jerry, I won't say his last name.
Jerry, we're gonna get you some suck my dick coffee.
Okay, like I said, I got some emails.
And Devin, alright, let me try this again because my audio tonic keeps crashing on me.
Devin is a really good friend of mine. I've known him a long time.
Matter of fact, when I first met him, I kept calling him Kevin to piss him off.
And I go, hey Kevin, it's Devin.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry.
And then the next time I'd call for him, I'd go, hey Kevin, it's Devin.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I got it, I got it, Devin.
I'll say it next time.
And then we're in front of a bunch of people, hey Kevin, motherfucker.
So anyhow, I've known him a long time.
And that car that cut me off and I got threatened, he remembers it.
He remembers all of it because I was, I'll just go into it.
Okay, Mark, you are a dipshit.
He's right, I am.
I remember the whole car cutting you off and men threatening you incident, clearly.
This did happen just outside of Westport on Broadway going towards the Plaza.
So you were right, Rob.
It did, you were right, it was right out there.
That's a story you told the first time. That's what I was thinking.
For some reason I thought it was a quick, I don't know, you know what, I don't remember shit.
Okay, so, and whenever I do, I forget the shit I remembered and I, anyhow, okay, anyhow.
I know this for a fact because you were driving behind me to shield me because I had temp tags on.
I remember looking in the rear view and seeing a long black car slide in front of you and stop.
They evidently trusted your driving better than I.
Fuck you, Kevin. I like Devin already.
I'm going to try to get Kevin to call in.
So, okay, so the long black car slid in front of me and they trusted my driving.
Okay, you immediately stopped. Four men came out of this car and opened your car door.
The first guy grabbed you and that's when the second car swooped in behind them
and some dude with a very nice looking suit on jumped out and looked at you and said something
and the whole clan jumped back in their vehicles and split.
You afterwards said there was a red laser dot on my chest. I don't remember that.
So evidently there was a gun involved somewhere.
Yeah.
Yeah, when I went back to check on you, a cop drove by and circled back around to check on us.
He read my expired temp tags and promptly wrote me out a warning.
So we both kind of lucked out that night. I was really horrified.
Not as much as you, but still. Devin, I mean Kevin in the sticks.
I can't believe it, man. Just throw it out there and someone will know something about it. It's funny.
Yeah. Yeah.
I did not expect anyone to chime in. So anyhow, Kevin, thank you for sending that.
And it sounds like he knows the story very well.
He does. And I'm the one it happened to mainly and I don't fucking remember it.
He remembers like every bit of it.
Well, that's probably because you were so damn scared shitless.
I probably had to go home and clean my pants. So I didn't remember a whole lot.
So anyhow, whatever that was about, I don't know.
You know, I guess I look like somebody or maybe it's a car that looked like somebody or possibly both.
Who knows? Anyhow.
And the other thing is, you know, did someone see me jump in my car in Westport and go, hey, that's the guy?
You know what I mean? It had to been something like that.
Yeah. So anyhow. All right.
Rob, why don't you have parody segment two like Rob's advice to the masses or ask Dr. Rob?
I mean, it would be cool to hear you do some parody spots.
Jesse in you, Dora. I like both of them, Rob.
How do you like Ashley? Ashley, I'm I'm in the process of working on stuff.
I really am. OK. I like just what this guy wrote here.
Rob's advice to the masses and ask Dr. Rob. Those are fantastic.
Yeah. Yeah. All right.
I've been working on some stuff and yeah, that actually one of them kind of goes with something I'm working on.
So that's pretty awesome.
So, Jesse, thank you very much.
And you, Dora. So I appreciate it.
Kansas. Yes. Yep.
Yeah, I know where you door is.
Yeah. He did. He did write Kansas.
So and it's a he, not a she. Jesse, it's a he.
All right. Next, Mark, how many podcasts are there now?
I'm starting to get confused. How many hours do you podcast a week?
I believe you are in every single podcast. Am I correct?
Robbie from Iowa. Yes, I'm in every podcast and Tuesdays like today are normally really rough on me
because I go to the city market and podcast for four hours, four plus hours.
And then I come back home that night and I podcast for over an hour.
And yeah, at the end of Tuesday, I don't like saying shit because I said everything I could.
It was done. So anyhow, there's three podcasts.
The main one, two douchebags and microphone, where all this fun spawned from.
And then there's the sports bastards or NFL show me and Topher.
And then there's the music creeps with me and Topher and occasionally Rob whenever he can chime in.
So there's three of them. We really didn't mean for the music creeps to take off yet, but we just couldn't help.
But we started talking about music so much like, oh, fuck it.
Yeah. And the way you and I have talked about it's only sitting.
Yeah, it makes sense. It really is. So we went in and just started talking, you know, about doing it.
We were talking about music so much. We're like, let's just go and do the music creeps now.
So all right. The next one's from Tulsa King, Ronnie. OK.
Mark and Rob, what type of booze will you never touch again in your life and why?
Ronnie and Tulsa, a.k.a. Tulsa King. Yes.
Um, you want to go, Robin? I'll go second. Yeah, I'll go.
OK. Everclear. Fair enough. Fair enough.
Last time I touched it, I popped a cap when I had money and three drinks later it was gone.
Oh, that was a bad night. That is a headache. Never touch that again.
Headache in a jar. Oh, yeah.
Mine. Well, it was on a dare.
Mine is this thing that we used to piss people off in in Westport at Buzzard Beach.
I called it Pap Smear on the Beach. It is old crow. Wild turkey.
And what was the third one? Old crow, wild turkey.
I can't remember what the third one was. It was horrible, horrible. Old crow, wild turkey.
And oh, oh, I remember now PBR.
It is mixed together in a drink.
And whenever chicks would come up and want a drink, we'd say, yeah, but you got to be the drink.
You have to drink what we give you. So we'd order them a pap smear on the beach. OK.
And they drink this. One time, Mac, my friend, got hit in the head with a shot glass because she was so mad.
So anyhow, pap smear on the beach, because I drank about like this thing keeps freaking out on me.
So I'm probably repeating myself. But mine is pap smear on the beach because of that, you know,
because we made the chicks that wanted drinks drink what we wanted them to.
And like I said, my buddy, Mac, got hit in the head with a shot glass because the chick hated the pap smear on the beach that bad.
And I had five of them one night. And I remember all I remember is waking up with my head spinning in an alleyway over there near where California's used to be in Westport.
OK, I don't know where that is. I couldn't remember. Well, I can't.
It's basically behind Buzzard Beach and the old Lone Star and all that.
OK, OK, OK. Yeah, I know. I know.
There's this alleyway spillway behind it, you know, like whenever it like floods, it looks like a waterfall type of deal.
Yeah, I was in that face down.
And vomit streaming out of my mouth down the spillway, head spinning. And anyhow, after that, I couldn't look at old crow, wild turkey or PBR.
None of those. I mean, still thinking about it. I cringe.
That's what I'll never drink again. And the close second is night train because remember how fucked up we used to get.
Oh, yes. Oh, I could never do that again. It would kill me.
I could drink night train and probably kill me and stop my heart.
I don't care how hard up I got. I don't think I could do another drop.
No, no. Oh, night train was something else. OK.
All righty. Then the final one, Mark, could you please give us a review of the Alex Van Halen book, Robin Topher, too, if they read it.
Thanks, Jerry and Galveston.
OK, I read it all and I'm jotting down stuff that I want to talk about on it and go over some stuff.
OK, but my main thing that I want to report on it is the book's too short.
I felt like their whole career, it could have been an encyclopedia, but it's not.
And it was kind of disappointing, really, because there wasn't as much content in it as I thought.
And another thing is in all these autobiographies, they have these old pictures, right?
Like their first gig ever and all this stuff like in Aussies, there is Glenn Hughes, there is Bob Daisley's, but all of this stuff.
There's all these pictures. There's no pictures in this. He doesn't have any pictures in it at all.
He just gets the highest high points, doesn't really get anything else.
It's good, but too short and doesn't cover enough.
But I will all I'm going to write out what I want to talk about and I'll do it on a podcast.
So my review right now officially is it's too short and does not cover enough. It doesn't offer any pictures of value.
So that's it right now, but I'll have more to say a little bit later.
So, hey, those are the emails, Rob.
Yeah.
We turn to you.
All right. Well, I'm going to go back into the rock world.
OK.
A retired band might could possibly come out of retirement and you're not going to believe who is.
OK.
Despite the spectacle of the end of the road world tour that concluded in December two thousand twenty three kids might not be ready to give up live performances yet.
Figures.
Guitarist and vocalist Paul Stanley noted that the band is leaving the door open for future concerts and interview with the Daily Times.
Anything's possible, said Stanley.
Kiss is so far from over, though.
Kiss as we know it is done, but having our hands, ideas and fingers in what kiss continues makes all the sense in the world.
So I look forward to whatever comes next without knowing what comes next.
But I'm open to it all.
OK, so basically now, now tell me if you think I'm right on this of what he was saying.
One, he did not rule out another live show or more.
Right.
Right. Right.
Number two, kiss is going to morph into maybe this online thing or whatever.
Or the the emojis, you know, you know, the AI generated them.
You know, it's going to it's going to be like Internet kiss or whatever.
Right.
Avatar's. Yeah.
Avatar's. That's it. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
See, the story goes into other things.
It goes into the first fell war tour started back in March of 2000.
And then after they played massive Square Garden and finished up this last.
Final tour.
They signed for the digital avatars to come out in two thousand twenty seven.
OK, OK, so it's still a few years off.
OK, yeah.
OK, so that's probably what he's referring to wherever kiss goes and whatever it is.
Kiss isn't as far from over.
So. OK.
Yeah, so I was at the first farewell tour.
So was I.
I was out August.
Two thousand. Yeah.
OK, cool. Yeah.
I was there too, and it was still ace and Peter.
Thank God.
So, yeah, I got a neat little story here, Rob.
Starting December 1st, Delta Airlines first class flyers on routes that cover more than 900 miles will be able to preorder Shake Shack cheeseburgers as a flight in flight option meal, according to a press release.
The partnership is a first. Yeah, I know that's pretty cool.
The partnership is a first of its kind for the airline with plans to expand to additional markets across the country throughout twenty twenty five.
A delicious cheeseburger and iconic comfort food.
Our customers know that, which is why burgers are one of the top ordered menus items that we offer.
And we're thrilled to elevate the offer and with Shake Shack Delta's managing director of onboard services, Stephanie Laster explained.
However, our partnership with Shake Shack goes beyond the burger.
Shake Shack's people, first culture and commitment to enriching their neighborhoods are spot on with our own brand values of service and excellent passengers will specifically be able to order Shake Shack cheeseburgers featured 100 percent Angus beef patty.
Anyhow, they can personalize their order.
You can add tomato.
You can have chips with it or a Caesar salad or a dark chocolate brownie.
So there you go.
Delta Flyers, get your Shake Shack fucking jam it, cram it down.
Ten thousand up.
There you go.
Well, should we take our second break and come right back?
Our constant pursuit for a real knee slapper. It's strange insults from an alien. Real hilarity.
Every time you're sitting in a stall at a public bathroom, may the guy that comes up next to you in the stall have explosive diarrhea.
Two dish bags, a microphone and an effort to keep everything fresh. We offer you first world problems.
Man, my Internet is so slow. This is bullshit. How am I supposed to browse or get on TikTok with slow Internet?
I'm so pissed off right now. I don't know what to do.
Harambe used to call into our original show, two dipshits and a cheap Radio Shack candy recorder.
Harambe stopped calling into our original show, two dipshits and a cheap Radio Shack candy recorder.
Why did Harambe stop calling into our original show, two dipshits and a cheap Radio Shack candy recorder?
Harambe was senselessly murdered because some idiot could not watch her children properly while looking at her phone.
Sadly, Harambe does not listen to any show anymore. Sorry, Harambe.
Next up, Things Overheard in Hell.
Man, Axel Rose is such a great childhood therapist. I hope he writes more books.
And now, Deep Thoughts with Mark.
Hmph. How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink? Huh. I may never know.
Now it's time for Pick Up Lines from a Loser.
If you were a fruit, you would be a fine apple.
A constant pursuit for a real news slaughter. It's strange insults from an alien. Real hilarity.
You are just like a cloud. It's a beautiful day when you disappear.
And I am Rob.
Rob, we left off with cheeseburgers. You got something you want to go into?
Yes, I do. Soon as I find it.
You got it?
Yeah, I got it. I've had it for a little while. I have to go back and find it.
I understand. Same here. I got my notes everywhere and I'm trying to organize them as we do the podcast. So I understand.
Right. Okay.
A TikToker's plan to walk 120 miles, deliver flowers to his girlfriend ended abruptly after realizing he had to work the next day.
Please go ahead.
The TikToker known as Kale went viral after announcing his idea to walk from San Diego to Los Angeles as a heartfelt gesture for his girlfriend named Annie.
In his gaming prior experience as a marathon runner, he set a goal to walk at least 30 miles a day, fully committing to completing the journey despite its challenges.
The TikToker shared his journey with followers and documented two days of progress, walking at least 47 miles total.
Concerns from his girlfriend, his mother, and his own lack of planning cost doubt on how feasible the walk really was.
On the third day, Kale uploaded a video announcing the cancellation of the rest of the walk.
In the video he admits to underestimating logistics, also saying he forgot about having to work the following day.
Oops.
Cool.
I know. He might have meant well, but he's pretty fucking stupid.
Oh shit, I better get back.
All right, well, I got something for you.
Evidently a guy that was missing for a long time, faked his own death.
He is a husband and a father. After an extensive search and rescue, Brian Borgwart, a husband and father who had been presumed missing and dead after a kayaking accident has been found.
Green Lake County Sheriff Mark Poodle said in a November 21st press conference that Borgwart is alive after faking his own death and is likely in Eastern Europe.
So he didn't fuck around. He got completely out of America.
Poodle revealed that police got in contact with a 45 year old Wisconsin resident on November 11th and received video from him confirming he is safe and well.
The video is shown during the press conference. His biggest concern is how the community is going to react to him possibly coming home.
Poodle said, well, that wasn't a very good faking then, was it? He's already coming home.
So Poodle said in November 21st press conference, I can see that.
OK, he staged his death. And unfortunately, one of the things that he did say was he didn't expect us to go more than two weeks in for searching him.
Well, I hate to tell you, he picked the wrong sheriff and the wrong department.
Officials and family initially worried that Borgwart had drowned after his kayak was found adrift in Green Lake on August 12th.
About two months later, during a November 8 press conference, Poodle revealed the investigation shifted based on evidence that suggests that Borgwart was alive and had run away.
We know that he's not in our lake, Poodle said, after a lengthy search for several weeks.
And during the November 21st press conference, Poodle shared how Borgwart staged his kayak in accident and if he would face any charges.
So Ryan Borgwart is a Borgwart or whatever, is a resident of Watertown, Wisconsin, who is believed to have gone missing on August 12th, 2024.
Failed to return from a kayaking trip on Green Lake. He is married and a father of a high school and grade school teenage kids.
So, he decided to fake his own death. So I don't understand why he all of a sudden popped back up. He was in Eastern Europe and he got away with it, right?
Yeah. Did he? I don't know.
Okay. Okay. I have two words. Okay.
Ass paddle. All right, hang on.
We need to start up. Yeah, hang on. Okay, I'm going to make a list.
It's been a while. Oh, and add this tick tocker.
I got a complaint. He tried to walk his girlfriend. Yes.
Oh yeah, yeah. And the guy trying to walk his girlfriend.
Complaint. Okay. Yes.
We don't make fun of Montrose anymore.
I mean, I don't know where else we can take it.
Look, they've been busted. They don't have a power plant anymore and we're really disappointed.
Okay, well, I've read other news. Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, we've took it as far as we can.
Well, that's kind of what I told him because the person told me in person.
And I was like, I don't know where else we could take it. I mean, you know, I Montrose, the first couple they did right, or supposedly someone from Montrose.
All the other stuff was just fun that we added like check going to give us a power cord, all this, you know, obviously that was parody. It was a joke.
But I mean, they don't write anymore. They literally did tear down the power plant. They seriously did.
Yeah. So like it's missing one of the key elements of being the best place on Earth.
The reason is best place on Earth is a power plant, a lake, a campground and a junkyard.
That's a man's playground right there. Now that it's missing the power plant.
It's not the same. So yeah, so we don't care about Montrose.
We got to find another city that or a town that has all of those and we will.
I need to check on Iitan up north and see if maybe they have all of that.
Hey, how about with saying, oh, you know what?
Lacey does have campgrounds. I don't know if it has a junkyard.
Yeah, technically they were. I like going to Lacey better than I did Montrose.
Oh, hell yeah. Much better lake. And bigger. Yeah. Yeah.
And also the land around it. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yep. Yeah.
I like the backwaters there. You go up north on some of those county roads
and where the backwater goes up in the streams that go in that trip contribute to the lake Lacey.
There are some really, really good fishing in there. So you're just a few minutes north of Fort Scott.
Yeah. Yep. Good old Fort Scott on the banks of the crystal blue waters of the Marmotin River.
Yes. Yes. I'm glad you got that right. Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, you know, not only Missouri has these crystal teal, beautiful waters,
but so does the Marmotin River. Yes. Yeah.
Every time I go there, I'm like, who needs tropical when you have this? Right. Right.
Anyway, Rob, we turn to you to turn this shit show around. Good luck.
You don't know how many turtles I had to cut off my fishing line.
Yeah, I probably do. I used to live down there. I used to fish on the Marmotin.
Oh, there's a lot of those not only snappers, but those mud turtles. Oh, yeah.
You don't have to worry about snappers. They're bad. Oh, they are.
The mud turtles, they would like to get themselves hooked really good, man.
They really bit on bait. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'd pull it in. I think it was a catfish.
I'd pull it in. It was a turtle. I just cut my line. Yep.
I know he's been in my food. No, same here, too.
You're probably not going to get that lure or whatever it was back anyhow or the hook.
So you might as well just go, bye bye. Bye, turtle. Yep.
So. And then the last chance of getting bit. Yes.
Because yeah, a mud turtle will snap at you, but it can't really hurt you.
A snapping turtle can take your finger off easily or your hand, depending on how big it is.
And snapping turtles are mean. They don't like you. As soon as they see you, they don't like you.
They have a very mean disposition.
That's what Freddy's I saved up here on the road that one day was. He was a big snapper.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. You told me you like kicked him back off of the highway and saved him.
Well, no, I just got his attention and he started heading towards me.
So I just kept his attention during off the road. That's cool.
I got him back go back down the grass. He took off, went back down the ravine.
I don't see him since.
Well, he went back to Turtleville. So wow. Yeah. Snappers, man.
They another thing about snappers is they have a really long reach on their neck.
So people that don't know get too close to them and get their toe bit off sometimes.
Right. So they can reach out what I think it's four feet. Is that it?
Something like that. Their neck and it lot for a lot further than you think.
Yeah, I forget what it was.
Three. You covered that one. Yeah, three or four feet, something like that,
because they will spring at you just the neck and the head and the beak, you know, and and that's it.
So anyhow, yeah, they can stretch out pretty good and they can nail you when you think that they can't.
So anyhow, I don't know where we're going with this.
But start with the beautiful Marmotin River. So anyhow, go ahead, Rob.
Oh, you were covering the Laceyne. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. The email. Yeah. My buddy, mine complain that we don't make fun of Lacey Montrose anymore.
So, yeah. I. All right. Well, yeah, I mean, take it over here.
OK. Yeah. I mean, I think we said everything we can about Montrose. We're disappointed.
So anyhow, go ahead. OK. It's been about 45 years since former New York Yankees pitcher Jim Bouton
teamed up with independent league pitcher Rob Nelson to create Big League 2 as a healthy alternative to chewing tobacco.
You remember when it came out? Yeah, I do.
Big League 2? Yeah, it was in a pouch like Redman.
Still is. Oh, OK. Do they still make Redman?
Yeah, they still make Redman too, I think. I think you can only get certain places.
I haven't seen any. I've seen Skoll and stuff like that snuff or dip.
But like the pouch chewing tobacco, I don't think I've seen it in quite a while.
I know. Actually, I think you're right. I think it's Canaan's.
Yeah, I don't think they do pouches anymore.
I don't know. I can't remember. I'm going on nine weeks without.
Oh, I remember Levi Garrett would leave a hell of a stain if you spit it on someone's pants.
Not saying that I did that, but maybe I might have. You know, someone wearing white pants.
I might have done that or someone I know might have done that. Yeah.
So, yeah, you chew a little Levi Garrett and you spat some of that brown on him.
It's not coming off. It stains. So anyhow.
Well, since then, over a billion pouches of the shredded bubble gum have been sold.
But now the Washington based company says a licensee is lying to the U.S.
Patent and Trademark Office about who was the official business behind the same gum.
This legal battle is detailed in a complaint filed last week by Big League Q Properties
and the Rob Nelson Company in an Illinois federal district court against Ford Gum and Machine Company,
which is based in Akron, New York.
Big League Q accuses Ford Gum of trade dressed infringement,
which means copying another's product and confusing customers.
The complaint was authorized by Mike R. Turner and other attorneys
like Neil Gerber, Isaac Murray, and Bonds, whoever and King, whatever.
Big League Q says it entered into its first licensing agreement with Ford Gum in 2010.
And the agreement indicated Big League Q has exclusive ownership of trademarks,
trade dress and goodwill associated with the shredded bubble gum.
Big League Q also says it provided Ford Gum with the equipment necessary to make shredded bubble gum.
As Big League Q tells it, the company enjoyed.
Hello?
I'm here.
What did you disappear?
The company enjoyed an excellent working relationship with Ford Gum until 2022
when private equity companies purchased Ford Gum.
Okay.
The new owners, Big League Q contends, demanded that Big League Q pay back $180,000
and a alleged overage of royalty payments.
Big League Q says it honored that demand.
The new owners also tried to convince or badger as Big League Q puts it,
Nelson to sell his company and its trademarks, trade dress and other intellectual properties.
So these other companies bought this guy out.
Okay.
They had that Big League Q originally signed with and was very happy with.
And now they're trying to take over trademarking and everything and Big League Q saying, uh-uh.
No.
Interesting.
I keep getting scammers sending me stuff saying they're from the Federal Trademark Committee
and all this stuff telling me that my trademark has expired or whatever, something like that, right?
And so I was getting sick of getting them.
So now what I do is I ask, they'll text me sometimes,
you got to have all this information to get your federal trademark, right,
for two douchebags and microphone.
So all this information is out there and it's with your trademark.
So they try like trying to scam you saying, uh, it didn't go through or something or something went wrong,
so you don't own it and someone else is getting ready to take it.
But don't worry, you could send me money.
I'm a trademark lawyer and I'll solve it for you and all this stuff.
What I started doing was give me a call and I send it to my lawyer's office that I had trademarked.
Yeah, so when they call, it's a law firm and they hang up.
It's funny.
Right.
It works really well because I get sick of that shit.
It's like, dumb fuck, I had a lawyer do it.
I didn't do it myself.
So, you know, they're, they're, um, what they're doing is they're hoping you did it yourself
and they're kind of not sure if it was right or not.
And that's how they take advantage of people.
They're like, hey, this didn't go through, buddy.
Give me $300 and it'll go through.
And then you give them the $300, but, you know, they, they steal it.
So anyhow, um, all right, I got one.
The famous Brook, um, do what now?
I said, all right.
Oh, okay.
So the famous Brooklyn sidewalk aquarium was officially paved over by the city employees.
Do you remember that?
It was this piece of sidewalk that was missing in Brooklyn, uh, New York.
And people put like a liner in there and water in there and they put like a filter system
and goldfish and guppies and what else?
And, and like little coral looking reefs and little life like that.
And they made essentially an outdoor, uh, or not essentially, but, um, they made a makeshift aquarium
out of this hole in the ground.
And it was really cool.
So first it was like, uh, someone vandalized it.
And then after that, the city of Brooklyn said we got to finish this sidewalk.
So it's got to go.
So anyhow, here's what happened.
The famous Brooklyn sidewalk aquarium was officially paved over by city employees.
The makeshift aquarium was started as a result of a leaky fire hydrant.
Residents in the neighborhood grew tired of the mud pit.
And, um, it was, uh, you know, they turned it, they think as a prank,
some unknown person kept placing goldfish in this, uh, in this little hole in the ground.
Right.
And then finally people that, you know, started, you know, making it like an aquarium.
Anyhow, so, um, the sidewalk, uh, they said the winter is approaching rapidly
and ice will be a terrible scenario for pedestrians.
The water hole is now a slab of concrete that fuses together a sidewalk on that block.
Don't worry though.
Seems like a group of residents built a new koi pond, if you will,
in the public green area near the original hole.
The new pond might be better than the original.
They did a really good job on it.
It looks great.
And it's in the green area right behind the sidewalk where the makeshift aquarium were.
So pretty cool.
Now they have their aquarium back.
Yep. Yeah. That's cool.
It is.
And then, um, I got something else here while we're talking about fish.
And then we can go to a story on you.
But, um, a vet has dramatically saved a family 17-year-old goldfish
after he was struck down by a killer tumor.
Vet Amor O'Reilly performed the first of his kind operation
to remove a growth from the face of their beloved fish Merlin.
Merlin's owners became worried about the veteran pet after he was unable to eat
and a lump appeared near his rest eye, his left eye.
They took the tiny three-inch fish to the MyVet location in Dublin
for treatment last month.
And the vet successfully removed the killer tumor.
And they're happy to say that their 17-year-old goldfish
is recovering fine and eating well.
How about that?
Yeah.
It's pretty cool.
17-year-old goldfish, number one.
Yeah, that's cool.
They cut a tumor off of it and it's doing fine.
So, anyhow, go ahead, Rob.
Okay.
I have a 25-year-old Indian man,
and we're going to call him by his last name, Kumar.
Oh, okay, okay, Indian from India.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Rohitas Kumar.
We're going to call him Kumar.
Fell ill and was transported to the hospital on Thursday, November 21.
Doctors performed CPR on the reported deaf and mute man to no avail
as they saw his heart rate flatline and declared him dead.
He was placed on a pyre, which I looked up...
A tire?
...in Webster's Dictionary.
A pyre.
Oh, a pyre.
P-Y-R-E.
Okay, okay.
Which I looked up in Webster's Dictionary.
A heap of combustible material ready for cremation.
Yeah, it's a Viking funeral is what they like to call him.
Yeah.
Well, he was being cremated.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, it's like a pile of combustible material in a teepee type of looking thing.
Yeah.
Yeah, anyhow, go ahead.
Well, moments before his fiery end, he suddenly started moving and woke up.
According to the Times of India, the postmortem papers indicate that Kumar had died as a result of a lung disease,
such as COPD...
Boy, that's pretty common tonight, isn't it?
Yeah.
...or tuberculosis.
His time of death was recorded at 1.50 p.m. local time,
but metal examiners did not check the body to confirm the death.
They have done postmortem in papers only, and it was not done physically.
District collector, yeah, whoever, told the Times in India,
without performing postmortem, the report was issued as a result of several investigations that took place following the incident.
Three different doctors had been suspended for negligence.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, he woke up around 5 p.m.
Well, good thing he woke up before they torched him. Geez.
Yeah, exactly.
Wow.
Damn, man.
You know, I don't know if you know this or not, but there are...
They dug up a bunch of old coffins from like maybe the 1700s, 1600s, right?
Over...
Yeah.
A good number of them have claw marks from the inside because they thought the person was dead, but they was not.
And when they woke up...
I've heard a lot of stories about that.
Yeah, they have a lot of proof of that.
That would suck.
Wow. Yeah.
Okay. All right. Well, we're getting a little like grim here.
How about if I tell you about Chipotle and their new gimmick?
All right.
Chipotle is ringing in the holiday season by reviving its gift set featuring fan created items inspired by the restaurant.
The limited holiday gift set was originally launched in 2021 and has been a coveted gift for burrito lovers.
These items make up for holiday gift set, each drawing inspiration from the Chipotle ordering experience.
A $50 exclusive, All I Want is Chipotle bundle will feature a personal car napkin holder, a lemon scented water cup,
a lemon scented candle, and a fresh bar of cilantro soap, a nod to the small percentage of people who experience a soap like taste from cilantro.
And I'm one of those people. Cilantro to me tastes like soap.
I know people that love it.
Items can also be purchased individually like the candle at $28, the napkin holder at $23.
Over the years, we've seen these limited items pop up, but you can get them now through the end of the year at any Chipotle.
So there you go.
Do you have an opinion on cilantro, Rob, or not?
Actually, I like it myself.
I think it tastes like soap like other people do.
I don't want anything. That's cool.
I mean, I wonder why that is.
I taste the best. Maybe it's.
Well, I'm used to fresh cilantro though.
There's a difference. Yes.
I'm not used to restaurant.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, it's like a homegrown tomato or pepper.
The difference in the taste of those over something that you get from the store is it's almost not like not the same item.
So right. Yeah.
So I could see that fresh cilantro.
I bet would not taste like soap to me.
It's got to be something with how they like make it.
And I don't know, store it or something.
I don't know. Who knows?
Anyhow, you got something, Rob?
Yeah.
Go through the 70 plus years of Chevy Corvette and you'll notice one year missing.
OK.
1983.
OK.
That year Chevy intended to debut the C4 Corvette, but problems arose.
Yeah. So that it was actually the first year of the C4, but they didn't release it.
I'll be damned in 1983.
Yeah, there is no night.
Well, through the story goes, there was no 1983 release.
Huh.
I didn't know that. Did you?
Well, I did until I read this.
OK.
Chief engineer Dave McClellan led the effort to redesign the Corvette.
The C4 represented a large leap in technology from the C3 created before man landed on the moon.
For example, the new Corvette had a computer controlled liquid crystal,
insulate panel, high strength, low alloy, galvanized steel, one piece, uniform, uniform, and sheet molded body panels.
Huh. OK.
Instead of fiberglass.
OK.
They had not seen it, but this was cutting edge stuff in the early 1980s.
They built 43 pilot cars in 1983, says Brian Gable, National Corvette Museum curator and content producer.
They had some delays in getting those cars built and some inconsistencies in the quality of assembly.
Uh huh.
With those issues, General Motors called off production in 1983.
But what happened to those pilot cars?
The pilot cars were all supposed to be destroyed.
The story goes that they brought in a crusher to destroy all the cars.
All of them got crushed except one.
It was the end of the day and it started raining.
The gentleman who was running the operation had a new pair of cowboy boots and was afraid of rain ruining them.
So the rest of the crew, well we'll just come back and get this last one tomorrow.
The surprise was when they came back to the crusher, the crusher was gone and the car is still there.
OK.
So they come and got the crusher.
Got it.
The car wound up being pushed into a corner in the Corvette assembly plant until it was rediscovered years later.
It then was displayed at the factory before moving into the National Corvette Museum.
The sole 1983 Chevy Corvette is presented with a white exterior and medium blue interior.
It's powered by 350 cubic inch L83 V8 rated for 205 horsepower.
Driven by four speed automatic.
Wow.
The following year, 1984, would be the last for the L83 replaced by the L98 in 1985.
Cool.
Yeah, see I didn't know there was, there was no 83 Vets.
I didn't either.
Wow, thank you.
It's a good article.
I got an interesting one right here.
Lemmy Kilmeister of Motorhead in his autobiography, White Lung and Fever,
wrote that he made more money writing four songs for Ozzy than he did with all 15 Motorhead albums.
Motorhead was a, I know, isn't that amazing?
Motorhead was a popular English hard rock band.
The songs Lemmy wrote for Ozzy were, I Don't Want to Change the World, Desire, Hellraiser,
and Mama I'm Coming Home, which Lemmy wrote for Ozzy and Sharon's much publicized trials and tribulations of their marriage.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's a good song.
It was a smash hit too. You could not go anywhere in America without hearing that blaring on someone's stereo.
All four songs appeared on Ozzy's extremely successful album, No More Tears.
The venture was certified quadruple platinum in 1996.
However, as successful as No More Tears was, it did not outsell the first album, Blizzard of Oz.
His last album, Patient No. 9, however, was his first number one album ever.
That's pretty interesting.
Out of all his stuff, Patient No. 9 was his only number one hit,
and that's because the rock category is not nearly as populated as it used to be.
Right.
And there's just not that many people playing rock anymore is what it is.
And everybody knows Ozzy.
Yes. So when they hear that, they ran out and bought it.
No, not a day.
Yep. And they made it number one.
You'd think an artist like Ozzy would have achieved number one way before that, right?
But no.
Oh, definitely.
Yeah. I've got a question for you, Rob, here real quick.
Who's... Okay. I'm talking about commercials, okay? Ads on TV, all right?
Who do you consider more trustworthy?
A talking box that wants you to wipe your ass and mail it to him?
Or an emo that wants you to buy insurance from him?
Oh, I've got to give it to the emu.
Me too. Me too. I don't trust a talking box that wants me...
Yeah, that emo is cool as hell.
Yeah, yeah. Lemu emu was cool.
Yeah, he keeps the other dude in check.
Yeah, yeah. Doug. Yeah.
Yeah, he keeps Doug in check.
Yep, he does, because Doug's a little nutty and he... Yeah.
I trust him.
I do too. So I thought that that was pretty... You know, I mean, a talking box...
Oh, that's a good question.
Yeah, yeah. A talking box that asks you to wipe your ass and put it inside his box and mail it.
I don't trust that, do you?
No. No. No. Not at all.
No, no. You need to check that box's hard drive. Something's not right.
A new company has an efficient way of sending satellites into orbit.
SpinLaunch has developed a long rotating arm that spins and catapults satellites into space.
Isn't that cool? All it does is spin around and throw...
Hello, okay.
It literally... It launches the satellites into outer space.
Now, think of this. You buy one of them, right?
And then you have people that want to get rid of their refrigerator, their washer, their dryer.
There you go.
Yeah. And you charge them like a small service fee and they get to watch their fucking washer go into orbit.
Wouldn't that be great?
Hell yeah.
Yeah, hell yeah.
Now, I mean, I hope it doesn't land on anybody later on, you know, space junk.
A washer being a space junk would be pretty bad.
Or maybe even a car. Wouldn't that be cool to catapult a car into outer space?
That would be cool.
Yeah. I'm telling you, if you could buy one of these SpinLaunch's catapults, that would be the shit.
Now we're talking guy shit.
Yeah. I mean, people like bring like school buses, shit. Someone might even bring like mobile home, an old mobile home and watch that get launched.
Hell yeah.
Man.
That would be fun.
And that would be a great TV show too, wouldn't it, Rob?
It would be.
You could call it...
That would be a great reality show.
Yeah. Yeah. And like, you know, you have the guy in...
Space launch.
Yeah. You have the guy in the office there.
Hey, Mr. Williams. Yeah, what?
We got a guy out here that wants you to launch his stuffed bear into space.
What?
You know, just weird shit.
Yeah.
He wants to launch his mother's ashes into space.
Huh.
Yeah.
That'd be a great show.
And like you said, you call it space launch.
Yeah, we'll see.
And then like people like us would sit around and watch buses get launched into space.
No problem, right?
I would.
Oh, I would too.
I would watch that.
Oh, that would be entertainment at its finest.
So anyhow.
All right, Rob, you got anything you want to go into or are we going to wrap a bow on this bitch?
That's all I have.
All righty.
Everybody, thank you for joining us.
Have a fantastic Thanksgiving.
Remember to say thanks before and then eat like hell.
Watch watch football and nap occasionally.
Nap when the Cowboys are on.
Don't don't nap when the Lions are on.
Right.
Definitely.
So there you go.
A little word of wisdom.
All right, everybody.
Oh, hi, Grandma Opal.
Hi, Jimmy.
Hi, Ricky.
You're down to what?
Your last week.
I think I got two or three weeks left.
OK.
Hi, Grandma.
Hi, Jimmy.
Hi, Ricky.
OK.
And also, Ricky sent me something and he's kind of right.
He said that he still listens and we need to mention him.
OK.
All right.
OK.
You got to do.
We do mention him.
No, I mean, I mean, after we quit, if they don't get a hold of it.
Yeah.
OK.
All right.
Well, he still listening.
Why not?
He's been with us this long.
Yeah.
Well, he obviously is because he sent me a message going, hey, what about me?
He goes, I still listen.
So you should mention me.
So I'm like, all right.
OK.
You got it.
All right.
All right, Ricky.
Ricky from Dodge City, Kansas.
We certainly hope Grandma Opal and Jimmy contact us.
It's been a long run in tradition and it would really hurt if it ended like that.
It would hurt if it ended like this.
Right.
Seriously.
That serious stuff right there.
Yep.
So anyhow, and we hope that Grandma Opal is OK.
She was pretty, you know, she's, you know, pretty elderly.
So anyhow.
All right.
Thank you guys for listening.
We love you.
Have a good night, assholes.
Good night, assholes.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Gobble, gobble.
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.
