1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
Oh my gosh.

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Sheldt's having beer panic attack.

3
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,000
I didn't want to put the wet beer on the

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Jep's Bar, Dutakus coaster, and ruin it.

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,000
These things are the last. I've got 300 more.

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000
Be very careful with each one.

7
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,000
So the music is in my right ear.

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
It's always something. Just deal with it.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,000
There's always something, man. I'll fix that later.

10
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,000
His eyes are going to start twitching.

11
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000
I gotta fix it now!

12
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000
If I have a seizure it's because somehow the music is in my right ear.

13
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,000
Oh, I didn't put it on there. Oh my bad.

14
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,000
It's okay. It's funny. I think it's funny.

15
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Alright, here we are. Second half.

16
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
And we're drinking something slightly more potent.

17
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
So this might be an interesting second half.

18
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Yeah, we'll see.

19
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
We will.

20
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Oh my gosh. It's slightly...

21
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,000
Actually, well, hold on.

22
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000
It doesn't drink that way. We'll talk about it.

23
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
It does not drink that way.

24
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,000
Sean just vomited, I think.

25
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Oh my god. You ever had those burps that were so long and volatile that your eyes just tear up?

26
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,000
That's actually never happened.

27
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Did it come down from your taint was rattling?

28
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,000
It was guttural. It just came out.

29
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Oh yeah. Those feel good.

30
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000
A lot of references to taint tonight.

31
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Well, you guys are having a discussion that male taints are 60% larger than female.

32
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Let me...

33
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Let me clarify. That would be Sean.

34
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,000
Dudes Like Us, I'm Sean.

35
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,000
I'm Paul. And I'm Jeff.

36
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,000
Let me elaborate on what's going on here.

37
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Check us out on Dudes Like Us podcast or Woodcraft through Facebook or Instagram.

38
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,000
I had an experience I want to talk about real quick.

39
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,000
I was irritated.

40
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
I'm not irritated anymore, but I was irritated as hell.

41
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,000
I rented a vehicle through Hertz.

42
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Alright?

43
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,000
I'm curious how this is going to turn back to taints.

44
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Yeah, I know.

45
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Well, actually it is. It will. 100% will.

46
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,000
I'm going to pump through this as quick as I can.

47
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,000
I went on.

48
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,000
My son comes up to visit.

49
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000
He doesn't have a ride back because he came with his girlfriend.

50
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000
I was like, fuck it. I'll just rent a car.

51
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000
You take the car back and you just turn it in there.

52
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
But we didn't really know exactly what was going to happen.

53
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,000
All I did was get a car.

54
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:14,000
I picked it up because the local one here in Frisco doesn't have cars available.

55
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,000
You have to go to the airport.

56
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,000
I went to Love Field Airport.

57
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Pain in the ass.

58
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000
I picked it up.

59
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,000
The thing is, when I was filling out the online,

60
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,000
where I would check it out,

61
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Like your preferences of what kind of car you want?

62
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,000
Plus, I'm a gold member of President's Circle.

63
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Ooooooooh!

64
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,000
Yeah, it's a real thing.

65
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,000
I'm kind of a big deal over there.

66
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000
So I fill out the thing I do all the time,

67
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,000
and this little thing pops up.

68
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Hey man, you want to save a few bucks?

69
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Are you gay? You can prepay.

70
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,000
I don't prepay.

71
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,000
Prepay for the car.

72
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,000
I never do it before in the past.

73
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,000
I don't prepay because I don't care.

74
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,000
But this one was like, hey man, you want to save a couple bucks?

75
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,000
And you said yes.

76
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,000
I just clicked on it.

77
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Let's do it. Let's save some fucking money.

78
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000
It's Christmas time.

79
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000
It's Christmas time.

80
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000
So I pick up the car.

81
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000
We're home.

82
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000
It's time to head back.

83
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
What kind of car was it?

84
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,000
It doesn't matter.

85
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,000
It was irrelevant.

86
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Little Hyundai Kona.

87
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,000
It was cool. It was functional.

88
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Tiny, tiny SUV.

89
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,000
The whole thing is I asked for a Buick.

90
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,000
It was supposed to be a small Buick SUV.

91
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Which I was kind of looking forward to.

92
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,000
The Enclave.

93
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,000
No, not the Enclave.

94
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
The one smaller than that.

95
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,000
It was actually kind of cute.

96
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,000
I saw it driving by and I was like, fuck.

97
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000
That's spiritual.

98
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,000
I get the car.

99
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,000
And Preston is about to head back.

100
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,000
I'm going to just take the fucking car.

101
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000
I'm fine.

102
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,000
And I go back.

103
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Because this is what I normally do.

104
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,000
You can change stuff on the fly.

105
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Hey, look, I'm not going to drop it off here.

106
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,000
I'm going to drop it off there.

107
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,000
Because on the website, it's kind of difficult when you want to return it.

108
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,000
Because some places aren't open.

109
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Some places are open.

110
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000
But at airports, they're open 24-7.

111
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,000
So you just click on it and then you just change it whenever you need it.

112
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Without thinking that was what was going to happen for Hertz.

113
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000
But a big middle finger to Hertz.

114
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,000
I'm telling you.

115
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,000
I'm so burnt out with them.

116
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,000
But I'm dug in.

117
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,000
Because I've got a relationship with them.

118
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,000
Because you have all these loyalty points.

119
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,000
And I'm going to stick with them.

120
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,000
But at the same time, I'm like, come on, guys.

121
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,000
Do better.

122
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Do better, Hertz.

123
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,000
So I call them up.

124
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,000
And I'm like, hey, I can't.

125
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Oh, by the way, you get on the phone.

126
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000
On the website.

127
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,000
I went to the website.

128
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,000
And you guys gave me the middle finger saying error.

129
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,000
I couldn't change it.

130
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,000
So I call them up.

131
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000
They're like, yeah, you can't change it because you're under a contract.

132
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000
You said pay in advance.

133
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000
And it creates a contract.

134
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,000
And I was like, yeah, technically you guys already broke that contract.

135
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,000
When I didn't get the Buick.

136
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Did you say bitch, please?

137
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
No.

138
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Bitch, please.

139
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,000
And so they were

140
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,000
this was Saturday.

141
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,000
And they were like, yeah, sorry.

142
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,000
So now I'm digging in.

143
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Even though they knew.

144
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Did they have any idea who you thought you were?

145
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,000
That you're a gold elite member?

146
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,000
Well, it didn't matter.

147
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,000
I wasn't going to argue.

148
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,000
And I didn't have time to argue because Preston was literally on the road.

149
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000
Unbeknownst to me, he came over to Jeff's house.

150
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,000
But that saved me a few minutes because I was on the phone with him the whole time.

151
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000
But I thought he was on the road like 20 minutes.

152
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000
I was like, fuck, I got to ask him to turn around and come back.

153
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000
So I was like, yeah, sorry.

154
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,000
I'm going to come back.

155
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,000
So I was like, fuck it, man.

156
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,000
I said, Preston, you need to get back because I got to drive you to College Station from Frisco, Texas.

157
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Drive to College Station and come back because Hertz will not let you return it there.

158
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000
It has a big middle finger up their butt.

159
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
I'm disappointed.

160
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
So anyways, that happened.

161
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,000
And so that consumed my whole Saturday.

162
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,000
And I was salty about the whole thing.

163
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000
I would have been.

164
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,000
In retrospect, you know.

165
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,000
You're talking about six hours of driving, bro.

166
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,000
I do enjoy going down to where Preston lives.

167
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,000
I do. We enjoy. I enjoy hanging out with him in the car for the for the two or three or three and a half hours, whatever it was.

168
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000
You know, and that's your line.

169
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,000
Silver lining of the. Yeah, it was.

170
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,000
And that's where here come the tape thing.

171
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,000
So we're we're listening to the Joe Rogan podcast.

172
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,000
They're talking about see if you can Google the Jizz Quiz.

173
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000
I want to find out who this doctor is.

174
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,000
The Jizz Quiz.

175
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,000
It may show up. It may not.

176
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,000
But there's a female doctor that that came up with.

177
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Let's see here.

178
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Let's see. Yeah, it is. That's our Shannon.

179
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:46,000
Shannon Swan. So she's actually she was on the podcast, which the Jizz Quiz we don't need to actually look at that.

180
00:06:46,000 --> 00:07:00,000
But the Shana Swann said something about how the man's taint is larger than the females by 60 to 100 percent longer.

181
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,000
And I just thought that just stuck in my mind.

182
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,000
So we were talking about earlier in the green room and I kind of meant.

183
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,000
So how do they measure the taint?

184
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Is it like from the butthole to what section of the underball?

185
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,000
I thought it was a lighter, a lighter.

186
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,000
What's the thing on LIDAR? LIDAR.

187
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,000
They measure it, but it has to be really up close.

188
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,000
So what's the demarcation line that says, OK, this is the ball sack.

189
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,000
This is where the taint starts.

190
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Excellent questions, Jeff. Excellent.

191
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,000
Is there a seam? These are good.

192
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:34,000
So what I'd like to especially our listener in Helsinki, Finland.

193
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,000
Well, he wants to know about this. I can promise you.

194
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:49,000
I'm almost certain he knows the answer because everybody knows that the fringe of the scrotum is the clear line marker from the fringe of the scrotum up to the anus hole.

195
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:56,000
Yes. Well, and this is to the middle of the anus hole or just to the I would imagine it's just to the edge because to the edge.

196
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:02,000
But it doesn't really matter because when you're dealing with numbers like 60 to 100 percent bigger, it doesn't matter.

197
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,000
The point is in the noise is that it's in the hair.

198
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,000
I was thinking there's more of a space, but there's not.

199
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,000
And this segment is brought to you by Hertz.

200
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:20,000
Yeah, thanks, Hertz. You did this to me because had I not been in that car, I wouldn't have had to listen to that podcast and I wouldn't have had that conversation.

201
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,000
And you wouldn't have bonded over taint links with your son.

202
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:31,000
And here's the other thing. Well, first of all, I did enjoy the trip because I went and I hung out with him at his work and I had lunch and then I drove back.

203
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:36,000
It's really not. It is three and a half hours, but the three and a half hours goes by pretty quick. It really does.

204
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:44,000
Did you stop at Buc-ee's? I didn't stop anywhere. It's like straight through just right back home.

205
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:56,000
So the thing is, is that I have to return the car Monday morning back to the source in which I got it from Lovefield.

206
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:02,000
So I called them up. Well, first of all, on Sunday, I called Chuck. I'm like, hey, Chuck, I'm kind of a predicament.

207
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:08,000
And I usually ask Jeff, but I'm kind of spreading myself thin with everybody.

208
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:14,000
I want to I want to spread the hate so you get to enjoy one of these. He's got to get him off that day and under his breath, I can hear him.

209
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:19,000
A fucking asshole. I clearly heard that it was it was almost audible.

210
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,000
But I kind of read between the lines. So I got him prepped for it.

211
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:29,000
And then Monday morning I call up and I call this the number again and they they totally change it.

212
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,000
They did a reverse. But I had to fight for it.

213
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:41,000
So the difference from the Saturday conversation and the Monday morning conversation, which had you returned it to College Station?

214
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:51,000
No, well, it sucked. No. But what they said is that I can return it back in Frisco because I was kind of like they were like, no, your contract says you have to return it to the airport.

215
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:57,000
And I was kind of like, all right, I want you to I want you to think outside the box here.

216
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,000
I mean, honestly, you just answer me off the record. Is this an absurd thing or what?

217
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:07,000
I mean, you're asking me to drive an hour to the airport as opposed to five minutes to the the Hertz. That's right here.

218
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,000
Right. I mean, what that doesn't make sense to me at all.

219
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:16,000
Be honest with me. Does that make sense? I know the contract says that. But come on. I mean, this is Texas. It's Frisco.

220
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:23,000
You guys are that that location never has cars. So they're going to be super happy that there's an extra freaking car.

221
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:28,000
Right. It's money forever. It's a win win. And my name is Sean. No, I didn't say any of that.

222
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:34,000
I'm a gold platinum. The president's son. I have a gold president.

223
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,000
I'm in the president's circle. You know what that means?

224
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Quite honestly, I don't know why they were giving you grief. Obviously, it means nothing because that's what I thought.

225
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:46,000
Dude, no, I'm being serious now for them to give you any grief at all for you being in the circle.

226
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:51,000
Bullshit. That's like being in a crystal platinum on on American Airlines.

227
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,000
Whatever you want, they do. They just do. Yes.

228
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:59,000
Cars all the time. I know you do. Like literally every week. Almost.

229
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:04,000
You know, but whatever. But they changed the whole thing. So I'm thinking, well, that was nice of them.

230
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:11,000
It was. It was nice. And I'm thankful. But at the same time, I'm like, could you just do that with the college station thing and avoided the whole God bless and trip?

231
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Right. I mean, it's a double edged sword. Take the silver lining. I did take it. I enjoyed time with my son.

232
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,000
And now you know that men's taints are bigger than women's taints. Yeah, that was crazy.

233
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:26,000
That's actually the most important part of the story. And that they're actually called the women's is not called a taint.

234
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:33,000
It's a perineum. Yeah. Why don't you walk us through that? Because you mentioned something about how you would massage your wives.

235
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:41,000
I did that. But that's that's an exercise that you could use to relieve the pain. You learn this how you let some other man massage her.

236
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:48,000
No, we we skipped that doctor. No, we took the I would say Lamaze class, but we took some birthing class.

237
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:57,000
And that was one of the suggestions that when they get here and they start having the contractions, you can massage their perineum, stick your thumb in and just kind of.

238
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:05,000
What rub? OK. And it relieves. You know, that is I'm very we did not do that.

239
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:12,000
I get that it probably does cause some sort of relief for them. But at the same time, have they met us?

240
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:18,000
We have a penis between our legs. If our hands get anywhere remotely to that area, it slips.

241
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:23,000
It's it's even if it's contracting, it's like it's like a Super Mario Brothers mushroom.

242
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:28,000
You start running across the room at high speed and then you hear ding ding ding ding.

243
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:33,000
She's yelling at you like there's a baby coming out and you want to put your dick in.

244
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:39,000
What? Jeff, you misunderstood us. Oh, I don't know where you went with that one.

245
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,000
I don't know. Wow. Well, you said you you did it. OK. You massage.

246
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,000
So this is the second half of the podcast. So we did because I don't know.

247
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:55,000
I don't know if we want to talk about this, but remember when did mention is when women were third 30th when women give birth, it can apesia to me.

248
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,000
You know, that's where they cut and make a little bit of a little heart. Correct.

249
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:03,000
And it's not fun to watch. I watched it. It looks extremely painful.

250
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:08,000
So which way do they cut it up or down? They cut it. They cut it towards the anus.

251
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,000
Yes. So they shorten the. Oh, wow. So they they the taint.

252
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,000
What do they call the perineum? Yes. Perineum.

253
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:18,000
So they they. So the perineum is a disposable little strip of skin down there.

254
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,000
No, no, no, no. They're not cutting it off. They're no, they they're slicing it.

255
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:25,000
We're splitting it to give more room for the baby. Good Lord.

256
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,000
Is that because they didn't allow time for it to dilate correctly?

257
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,000
Sometimes the babies are just too big. They're too big. Whoa. Yeah.

258
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,000
I cannot believe we're talking about this, but it's a fascinating topic anyway.

259
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:40,000
So in prep for this, they say you can massage that area because it's likely and possible

260
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,000
that that has to happen. The appeasing might have to happen.

261
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:49,000
And it makes that surgical procedure easier and less traumatic.

262
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,000
If it's like a massage of that, I don't know, there's a muscle there.

263
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Correct. And it doesn't have to be a doing doing ding ding ding ding moment.

264
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,000
Like I'm going to have to go. I'm about to pull the yellow card on this whole top.

265
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,000
So you had to do that in the hospital in front of everyone?

266
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:09,000
Well, we did it for months beforehand over and over again every night.

267
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Well, this is shit. Dudes go through not everybody, but certain dudes have to deal with this.

268
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,000
The face. The face is why we need videos. Yes.

269
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,000
Seeing the pain, the pain that he's going through.

270
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,000
By the time my wife had her fourth kid, poor Austin, he was like coming out of there.

271
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,000
I mean, I had a baseball glove. It's got him.

272
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,000
Same here. Except for Preston. He wasn't the same.

273
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:36,000
He came out kind of what they call that comes out. It was a breach.

274
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,000
It was crazy. Preston. Oh, shit. Oh, dude. It was crazy.

275
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,000
He came out. He had to like twist them. And I was kind of dude, you're going to fucking kill him.

276
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,000
And he was like twisting his neck all sideways. They don't fuck around.

277
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Like it can be a tense, very tense. It's going to happen fast.

278
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,000
And he was good. He was good. He knew exactly what to do.

279
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:57,000
And me, I've been looking at him and I'm and you know, I know why guys pass out their labor.

280
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,000
It's because we're we're pacing their breathing like.

281
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,000
Then we just like pass out. You hyperventilate.

282
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:12,000
Dude, I don't know. You know, we could tell lots of stories about how that whole experience went.

283
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:18,000
But remember, my wife did no med. All three natural births.

284
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:24,000
So she had to go into her cocoon of pain management and I had to coach her through it.

285
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,000
And it was a it was an experience, man. And we and for Dawson, we had scary moments.

286
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,000
Lost the heartbeat. People run in and out of the room.

287
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,000
You know, all this kind of crazy stuff going on. It was it was scary.

288
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:40,000
It can be. Yeah, I can be very an emotional, traumatic.

289
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,000
Tara did one of those. Yeah. Emily was without anything.

290
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:49,000
You know, she was just like, I think at the time, because we didn't have insurance.

291
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:54,000
So we had to pay cash. Right. It was like it was like thirteen thousand dollars.

292
00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:00,000
Gee, out of pocket. Right. There you go. And Tara was like in her methodology was like,

293
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,000
I'm going to save thirty five hundred bucks and just skip to the the the drugs.

294
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,000
I'm all the stuff that is involved. Yeah. Right. And yeah.

295
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,000
After what she's like, yeah, I'll spend the next time.

296
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,000
Well, actually, she did say that she did say that.

297
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,000
But she also she really sincerely wanted to to have that experience.

298
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,000
So, yeah, she did say that was the reason.

299
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,000
But she really did want to have that experience.

300
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,000
And then after that, she was kind of like, yeah, yeah, fuck that.

301
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,000
No, no, no. Then the two boys came out, you know, Preston.

302
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,000
He's fucking Fred Flintstone. He came out and she was like, good God.

303
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:35,000
She he broke that system. Yeah. Brandon, when Brandon came out,

304
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
the apesiotomy was not enough. Oh, yeah. He's big boy.

305
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,000
He's big. He was big. He's like Bam Bam. Yeah.

306
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,000
And he was he was a bloody mess when he came out.

307
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:50,000
The doctor held him up for the picture. He was just like, like Carrie.

308
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:54,000
There's this from Alien. No, from the movie Carrie.

309
00:16:54,000 --> 00:17:00,000
No. So so the decision was Queen drenched in blood.

310
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Yeah. The decision was made since Brandon was so large.

311
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,000
You know, that's that's what he looked like.

312
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,000
Oh, no, Mr. Producer. OK. Yeah.

313
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,000
That's not a good face, but that's really not a good visual.

314
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,000
Fire eyeballs. Yeah. The decision was made since Brandon was so large

315
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,000
in the complication that Stephen was going to be a C section.

316
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,000
Oh, yeah. So was he? Yeah. Stephen was. Oh, I get it.

317
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,000
Yeah. You don't want to go through that twice because Brandon was was so large for

318
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:32,000
cause it's problems. It is funny that you say the fourth one was like

319
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,000
super like Austin was super cool. Yeah. Yeah.

320
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,000
But Austin wasn't as big either. Yeah. For Brody, it was like, oh, honey, I think I

321
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:44,000
could. Yeah.

322
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,000
I mean, it's like, oh, OK, I got you.

323
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,000
I'm sure our female listeners out there, we got these guys are fucking dip charts.

324
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,000
They have no idea what they're talking about until they pass birth.

325
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,000
They can just shut the hell up. We don't know what that experience is like,

326
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,000
but we know what the experience is like. 100 percent as a father being there.

327
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,000
It was a trip, man. And we played a big role.

328
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,000
I played a big role. I mean, I was her little contraction machine

329
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,000
was going up and up and down and you were massaging it.

330
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,000
No. And she was in her cocoon.

331
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,000
She wasn't speaking. Her eyes were closed the whole time.

332
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,000
And so I was like, OK, I don't know what to do or say.

333
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,000
You're like, I'm going for a beer. You won't know how I left.

334
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,000
I was like, you know, anyway, but no, seriously, I was telling you.

335
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,000
No, that's not true. It was Jack and Coke.

336
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,000
Of course. No, back then it was a California cooler.

337
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,000
No, or the Zima. Probably Zima.

338
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,000
It was it. Robin Coke. It would have been Captain Morgan.

339
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,000
Which they didn't let me have in the room.

340
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,000
I was like, that's bullshit. You know what I'm paying for?

341
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Anyway, so I was watching the machine and I told her it's peaked.

342
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:49,000
I was just talking to her and tell her I know she did not say a word.

343
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,000
Her eyes were closed the whole time.

344
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,000
And I would tell her it's because coming down, it's coming down.

345
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,000
Shelly's not here. Only pretty much.

346
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:00,000
And then later she told me you were so helpful.

347
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,000
And I was like, well, like what?

348
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,000
I was stood there, you know, being supportive.

349
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,000
But when I told her that it peaked, she couldn't tell.

350
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:14,000
Like in her body, she just felt it was like intense and high.

351
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000
And she was like, oh, my God, I don't know if I can keep doing this.

352
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,000
And then I told her it's peaked and she was like, oh, it's coming down.

353
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,000
I can do this. You know what I mean?

354
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,000
Going back up? Just kidding.

355
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,000
That's a false peak.

356
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,000
You son of a bitch.

357
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,000
This machine is fucked up, man.

358
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000
Anyway, it was it was a trip, man.

359
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,000
It was a trip. Anyway, wow.

360
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,000
And you're still married. We have literally right.

361
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,000
We have literally never talked about that before.

362
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,000
That was a fascinating topic.

363
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:48,000
One of the things that happened when Brandon was born, Julie had so much water, amniotic fluid or whatever you want to call it.

364
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,000
Oh, yeah. She was very, very large.

365
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Her stomach. I mean, he was big, so he had a lot of water.

366
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:58,000
And they had to induce what do you want to call it?

367
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Break the water? Yeah.

368
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,000
So he went in there with his little little hook or whatever.

369
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,000
It's like a creepy little hook.

370
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,000
Yeah. So he went up there and he pulled it in this water.

371
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Went all over him. He's like, no one's gotten me in like five years.

372
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,000
He goes, that's incredible.

373
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,000
He squared it all over him.

374
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Fucking bunny shot, huh?

375
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,000
It went all over the floor. I was standing there holding her hand.

376
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Next thing I know, I was in tube socks. Next thing I knew, my socks were drenched.

377
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,000
Hold on. Hold on. Stop. You were in fucking tube socks?

378
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,000
I was in tube socks.

379
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,000
Did they have a go fast tripod?

380
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,000
No, they were just white ones.

381
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,000
You were not dressed appropriately then, huh?

382
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,000
No. And then.

383
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,000
You need your duck boots.

384
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,000
Everyone knows you should have worn glosses.

385
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,000
And what's funny is I was standing there in all this amniotic fluid on the floor.

386
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,000
And then they covered her up.

387
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,000
And then her brother came in to visit with her.

388
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,000
And I took my socks off. I was like, here, Don, can you hold these for me?

389
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,000
You did not. Just to fuck with him?

390
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,000
No, I wasn't even thinking. I was like, can you do something with these?

391
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,000
Your tube socks, you took them off?

392
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,000
Yes, because they were just soaked.

393
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,000
He's like, here, smell these.

394
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:06,000
And he still brings it up to this day. He's like, you wanted me to hold my sister's embryonic fluid.

395
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Embryonic fluid socks. Wow.

396
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,000
It was bad. It was warm. Warmed my feet up.

397
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,000
Oh, that is crazy.

398
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,000
That was a little too much.

399
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,000
That was a lot.

400
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,000
Quite an experience, though. That's a different experience.

401
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,000
But you were there for all four births, obviously, right?

402
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:30,000
All four. And I will share something that's a little embarrassing and life changing for me.

403
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,000
I think I know this story.

404
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,000
Oh, do you?

405
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:39,000
So when my first son was born, which is child number three,

406
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:47,000
I had a career where I was doing construction during the day and doing whatever it took to make money.

407
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,000
So construction during the day, and I was a disc jockey at night.

408
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,000
Right.

409
00:21:51,000 --> 00:22:02,000
And I was out on a gig and I got drunk. Long story short, I was drunk.

410
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,000
And my wife went into labor and I struggled getting there.

411
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,000
Ouch.

412
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:14,000
And I swore from that day forward that would never, ever happen again.

413
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,000
And it has, but it.

414
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,000
Not while she was pregnant.

415
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,000
It happened for the next baby.

416
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:26,000
It has, but it didn't happen until they were like two decades later.

417
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:35,000
And so I stuck to it. I was like, I will never, ever put my family in a position to where I will be too inebriated to take care of them.

418
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,000
It was life changing because I was kind of like I failed.

419
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000
I felt like a failure.

420
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,000
Nobody else knew because nobody knew I was drunk.

421
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,000
They kind of thought he's drunk, you know, but they didn't know.

422
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,000
Yeah, I knew. Yeah, they didn't know.

423
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,000
And you just reeked of Grand Marnier.

424
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,000
Do I get to break the water?

425
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,000
Or pinch?

426
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,000
No, none of that was there because there was no one else there.

427
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,000
It was just me because it was in the middle of the night.

428
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,000
Oh, right. So it was just me.

429
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,000
So the mother, no one else was there.

430
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,000
Excuse me.

431
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:12,000
But anyways, so the point is, is that it's kind of a life changing thing for me.

432
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,000
And these things like self realization things.

433
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,000
That's a good. That's a good one, though.

434
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,000
It was. It is good.

435
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,000
And I'm thankful that I had it.

436
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,000
I wasn't thankful that it went through.

437
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,000
It wasn't actually when he was.

438
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:23,000
I misspoke.

439
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,000
It wasn't when he was born.

440
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:33,000
It was prior to that because she was having issues with her ambiotic fluid being low

441
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:40,000
and that she had to go to the hospital in an emergency, you know, and I was notified.

442
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000
And her mom couldn't get there in time.

443
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,000
And I was on my way.

444
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,000
It is just it was just I know what you mean.

445
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:50,000
So I showed up and it was late and I could have been there sooner.

446
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,000
She was thankful I was there.

447
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,000
And, you know, I fell asleep next to her.

448
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,000
You know, you imagine me fucking snoring, right?

449
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Yeah.

450
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Fucking symphony.

451
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,000
Fart everywhere, too.

452
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Just vocal flatulence.

453
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,000
Just going everywhere.

454
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,000
Did the hospital staff ask you to leave?

455
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:10,000
They're like, we need to get him a CPAP.

456
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,000
There it is. 23 straight.

457
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,000
There we go.

458
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,000
Congratulations.

459
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:19,000
I recommend for all those people out there to get a CPAP machine.

460
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,000
This moment brought to you by Med-Res.

461
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,000
The last one, you're like, well, if I don't need one, I'm not going to get one.

462
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,000
I don't snore anymore. I lost weight.

463
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,000
Fuck you.

464
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000
That was you, Jeff, on the last one.

465
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,000
It was. I don't know about the fuck you.

466
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,000
But yeah, I don't believe I said that.

467
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,000
Now, we read between the lines.

468
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Anyways, those are those are important things.

469
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,000
We had a plan on talking about this.

470
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,000
That was not on the board.

471
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,000
It was not.

472
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:48,000
But with, you know, with life comes death and there have been some deaths in significant ones this week.

473
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,000
So one punch I've been bad.

474
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,000
I think we should start.

475
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,000
We'll leave the big one.

476
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,000
They're all big.

477
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,000
Well, probably the most popular one.

478
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,000
Right. So Chuck brought up Linda Lavin.

479
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,000
So she I had to look her up.

480
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,000
She's Alice.

481
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,000
Yeah, that's the only thing I know her from.

482
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,000
I feel stupid for Alice.

483
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,000
OK, Alice, what show like like Alice?

484
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:17,000
It's called Alice.

485
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,000
She's a waitress in a diner.

486
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,000
Can you give me a still or flow ever with Mel?

487
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,000
And there was that one woman on there.

488
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Man, you can kiss my grits.

489
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,000
Those flow when donkeys fly.

490
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,000
Give me give me a YouTube short of this because I'm struggling.

491
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,000
No, it's Alice.

492
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,000
There you go.

493
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,000
Would I recognize it?

494
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,000
I would immediately recognize it.

495
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,000
Right.

496
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:37,000
See if you pull up a little video.

497
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Oh, yes.

498
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:46,000
Well, to me, that's I got confused that maybe that was part of play a little Greece lightning, not lightning, but tapped on you.

499
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,000
What?

500
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000
What am I thinking of?

501
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Oh, yeah.

502
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,000
I know exactly who you're talking about.

503
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,000
Night, Calvin.

504
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,000
It's not going to be a good night for me.

505
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,000
It must be love.

506
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,000
Look at the era.

507
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,000
It's kind of crazy.

508
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,000
Just hates to see Calvin leave.

509
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,000
So do I.

510
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
The only customer we've had all night.

511
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,000
Mel.

512
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,000
Yeah, the only person coming in here now.

513
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:13,000
Which one's Alice?

514
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,000
Her?

515
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,000
No, that's Flo.

516
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:17,000
That's Flo.

517
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,000
The one is Alice is at the sit down.

518
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,000
Yeah, she's countertips right there.

519
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,000
Yeah.

520
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,000
Coins.

521
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,000
She was the pretty one of the three.

522
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,000
Whatever.

523
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,000
Anyways, I watched that show.

524
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,000
I watched it.

525
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,000
OK, I recognize it.

526
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,000
I recognize it now.

527
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,000
How do I stop?

528
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,000
So she passed away.

529
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,000
How old?

530
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,000
Just for my body.

531
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,000
How old was she?

532
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,000
Seventy three.

533
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,000
Am I calling that correctly?

534
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,000
I have no idea who she was.

535
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,000
I think we're good with that.

536
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:45,000
Yeah, thank you.

537
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,000
That was perfect.

538
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,000
I didn't follow her career, so I don't know.

539
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,000
I watched Alice.

540
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,000
She was born in 1937.

541
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,000
So she was 87 years old.

542
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,000
Oh, that's a good amount.

543
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000
Yeah, she made a good run.

544
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,000
You know, anything past the 75 marker, what is it?

545
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,000
73 to 76?

546
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,000
Yeah, 74 to 70.

547
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,000
Who knows what it is for the women.

548
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,000
Five foot three.

549
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:09,000
And you know, we know her.

550
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,000
Like Sessions.

551
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,000
Right.

552
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,000
And we know her for that show.

553
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:19,000
But the reality is she probably had 20 years of Broadway.

554
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,000
Yeah, that's just it.

555
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,000
I'm looking at it.

556
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:26,000
And she had something called L. Smith in 2024.

557
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,000
Oh, that show's on right now.

558
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,000
Yeah, I don't watch it.

559
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,000
But yeah.

560
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,000
Tony Award.

561
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,000
She was in the Muppets Take Manhattan.

562
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,000
Really?

563
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,000
Very nice.

564
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,000
It's Superman.

565
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,000
She's on a couple of movies.

566
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,000
Nice.

567
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,000
She had a long career here.

568
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,000
I haven't seen her.

569
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,000
And the thing is, we probably have seen her.

570
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,000
You probably have.

571
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,000
You just don't realize who it was.

572
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,000
That's right.

573
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Yeah.

574
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,000
Well, that's outstanding.

575
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,000
She was in Barney Miller as well.

576
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,000
Was she really?

577
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,000
Rest in peace.

578
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,000
That's what it says.

579
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,000
Lovely actress, lovely career, lovely life.

580
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,000
Excellent.

581
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,000
All right.

582
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,000
All right.

583
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,000
And who?

584
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,000
The other one was.

585
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,000
Did we already talk about the?

586
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,000
We talked about Brian Gumbel, so we don't have to talk about him too much.

587
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:12,000
But the big one, in my opinion, is Jim Carter.

588
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,000
Yes.

589
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,000
The president.

590
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,000
President Carter.

591
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:16,000
President Carter.

592
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:17,000
Jimmy Carter.

593
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,000
You know what's crazy is how he died.

594
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,000
I mean, well, he was 100.

595
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Well, he died of old age.

596
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,000
But I mean.

597
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,000
I was going to say, what was he, skydiving?

598
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,000
What happened?

599
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,000
He tackled a horse.

600
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,000
Because he had cancer.

601
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:28,000
He had melanoma.

602
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:29,000
For real?

603
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,000
Skin cancer.

604
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:31,000
Yeah, he had skin cancer.

605
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:32,000
Oh, no shit.

606
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,000
And he beat it.

607
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,000
And he lived for another 13 years.

608
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,000
Good for him.

609
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,000
Now, he was the peanut farmer.

610
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Yes.

611
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,000
That was his brother.

612
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,000
Billy.

613
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:42,000
Billy.

614
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,000
Carter.

615
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,000
Billy Carter.

616
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,000
Yeah, he was the peanut farmer.

617
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,000
Yeah.

618
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,000
So Billy Beer.

619
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,000
Remember Billy Beer?

620
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,000
No.

621
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,000
Yeah, that Billy Beer back in the late 70s as well.

622
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,500
You know, I mean, Jimmy Carter was supposed to be one of the worst presidents ever.

623
00:28:57,500 --> 00:29:02,000
Yeah, he wasn't a great president, but he apparently was a super peaceful man.

624
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,000
He was very, you know.

625
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,000
He's probably right where the Democrats need to be right now.

626
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,240
And, you know, he was in the middle.

627
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,000
He was not effective president, though.

628
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,000
No, he was not.

629
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,000
He was a one term, man.

630
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,000
Yeah, Reagan beat his ass.

631
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,000
Yeah, that's right.

632
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,000
Oh, absolutely, because things were failing.

633
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,000
Then Reagan came in and...

634
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,000
Yeah, and he was the one that had the Iran hostages.

635
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,000
The hostages, yeah.

636
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,000
And then Reagan came in and...

637
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,000
Reagan just annihilated that.

638
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:30,000
Well, and maybe on the last...

639
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,000
I think they released him in the store.

640
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:37,000
Actually, on the last podcast, I asked why, like what did Reagan do or say to make them

641
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,000
release him on day one?

642
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:44,000
But you guys were saying that they knew they could, you know, get away with it or maybe...

643
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,000
I don't know.

644
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,000
Yeah.

645
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,000
I don't know either.

646
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,000
I don't know what...

647
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,000
I was 11 when Reagan got elected.

648
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,000
So it's similar to what Trump getting to office right now.

649
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:57,000
They can anticipate what's going on because, look, there's people overseas right now, the

650
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:02,000
terrorist organizations, the Iranians, all these people that are like, we know that we

651
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,000
could take advantage...

652
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,000
Any time the Americans have a Democrat in office, we could do whatever the fuck we want.

653
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,000
Well, especially Biden, because he's not in control.

654
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:11,000
I'll give it to Obama.

655
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,000
He was there when they took out bin Laden.

656
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,000
Bin Laden.

657
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,000
Yeah.

658
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,000
So I'll give him that.

659
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,000
Yeah, but then he blew the intelligence of it.

660
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,000
Did you hear what happened on that one?

661
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,000
No, what happened there?

662
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:29,000
Also, they did the raid in Pakistan, right, and they got all his computers and they were

663
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:34,000
like, they got this trove of information and they were desperate to keep it quiet so they

664
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:39,000
could chase down all the people, hook together the network that's involved with bin Laden,

665
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,000
and then go get them.

666
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,000
But Obama was so eager to tell the nation that...

667
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,000
We have all the computers?

668
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,000
No, that we got bin Laden.

669
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:53,000
So as soon as they announced that they had got bin Laden, the network connected to him,

670
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,000
poof.

671
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,000
Right.

672
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,000
Bane it.

673
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,000
Disappointed.

674
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,000
Just like that.

675
00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,000
Yep.

676
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,000
And the intelligence agency was like, you mother...

677
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:05,000
So Jimmy Carter, born and raised in Plains, Georgia, graduate from the US Naval Academy

678
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:10,000
in 1946, joined the US Navy, submarine services, returned home after military service to his

679
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:15,000
family, peanut growing business before a beginning of career in Georgia politics where he supported

680
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,000
this movement as a state senator and later a governor.

681
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,000
He won the 76 Democratic presidential nomination as a dark horse candidate.

682
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,000
Probably need to find out what is a dark horse.

683
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,000
Dark horse is the what?

684
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,000
The underdog, right?

685
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,000
The unlikely candidate?

686
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,000
Yeah, the unlikely candidate.

687
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,000
So defeating Gerald Ford.

688
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,000
So what was up with Gerald Ford?

689
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,000
Gerald Ford took over for Nixon.

690
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,000
Right.

691
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,000
He was almost like a...

692
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,000
He was a transitory.

693
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,000
Yeah.

694
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,560
This guy was a quality individual, Jimmy Carter was.

695
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:52,880
He might've been an ineffective president, but he was a quality human being and everyone

696
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:53,880
is in agreement on that.

697
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:54,880
I think so.

698
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:55,880
He was a centralist, I think, mostly.

699
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:56,880
You know what?

700
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:57,880
Look, he had a long life.

701
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:02,440
That's the way most Democrats were back in the day.

702
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,000
They weren't what they are today.

703
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,000
Yeah.

704
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:06,000
They're not left.

705
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,000
They're not progressive, bullshitty people.

706
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Wokey.

707
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,000
So, but I wonder...

708
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,000
That's absurd.

709
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,800
I wonder now that Biden is done.

710
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,520
They consider Carter one of the worst of all times.

711
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,120
I don't know if they'd say Trump is too, just because they're pissed off at him.

712
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:22,760
But I discount that.

713
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:28,200
I wonder how they're going to weigh Biden in these last, basically this last year of

714
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,200
his administration.

715
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,480
I mean, what did he really accomplish, Biden?

716
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:34,480
I don't know.

717
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:35,480
What did he accomplish?

718
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:36,480
Yeah.

719
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:37,480
I mean, you can...

720
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:38,480
Not much.

721
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,480
I mean, the same thing.

722
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:46,120
I mean, I wasn't there when we were, but I wasn't into politics when Jimmy Carter was

723
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,120
in office.

724
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:48,120
So it's hard to say.

725
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,960
I think it was worse during Carter, because I do remember the fuel lines.

726
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,240
Oh yeah.

727
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,240
You don't have that with Biden.

728
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:56,240
That was the...

729
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:57,240
Inflation went way up.

730
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,680
Unemployment went way up.

731
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:04,040
There were fuel lines where you'd see a hundred cars waiting to get gas.

732
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:05,040
Yep.

733
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,040
I remember that happening.

734
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:07,040
You only see that at Costco now.

735
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:08,040
People are stupid.

736
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,040
I know it.

737
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,040
They're stupid.

738
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,040
They're stupid.

739
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,040
Go across the street and spend 50 cents more.

740
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:13,040
I know.

741
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,040
I think you're right.

742
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:15,040
I know.

743
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:16,040
But still, okay.

744
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:17,040
It's amazed me.

745
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:22,840
I'm kind of curious how the general people, I don't even know who it is.

746
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:23,840
Who are these people that...

747
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,040
I mean, when they start grading these presidents, when you ask AI...

748
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,040
I don't know who does this.

749
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:28,040
Oh, it's ridiculous.

750
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:34,600
It's probably like the New York Times or some conglomerate of Ivy League leaders.

751
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,600
I can promise you it's not based on a metric that's consistent and standard.

752
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:45,320
Mr. Producer, can you type in a new Google search engine and say, tell us who... list

753
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,280
the president's popularity.

754
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:48,840
Popularity or...

755
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:50,600
Or successful.

756
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,200
Best or worst.

757
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:53,200
Yeah, best.

758
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:54,200
There you go.

759
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:55,200
Best or worst president.

760
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,760
Trump's going to be dead last.

761
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:57,760
I can promise you.

762
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,400
I think they should use the dudes like us ranking.

763
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,400
Oh, that'd be a good one.

764
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:03,400
Yes.

765
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:04,400
Trump would be...

766
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:05,400
Well, that's not AI though.

767
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,400
He'd be one and two and three and four and five.

768
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,520
I said they're probably not going to list that.

769
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:10,520
Trump is...

770
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:11,520
Where's Biden?

771
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,520
All right, let's see here.

772
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,160
Okay, who's number one?

773
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:16,160
Is it Lincoln?

774
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:17,160
Lincoln, Washington, Roosevelt.

775
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:18,160
Where's Biden at?

776
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:19,160
There's Reagan.

777
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,160
Reagan's pretty high.

778
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:21,160
Look at that.

779
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:22,160
He should be.

780
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:23,160
I agree.

781
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,160
Yeah, but these lists are old.

782
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:25,160
Like the one who's up there is from 2022.

783
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:26,160
Oh, Biden's probably not even on there yet.

784
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:27,160
Obama's way too high, dude.

785
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:28,160
Come on.

786
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:29,160
Yes, I agree.

787
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,160
Get out of here.

788
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:31,160
I think Clinton deserves to be up there.

789
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:32,160
All right, so February 19th, 2024, they came up with a list.

790
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,160
There's Clinton.

791
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:34,160
I see Clinton.

792
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:39,160
He's right above Ulysses S. Grant.

793
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,160
HW.

794
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:44,600
Yeah, so that's not a fair assessment.

795
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:45,600
I don't think that.

796
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:46,600
That's from 2022 anyway.

797
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:47,600
It's C-span though.

798
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,880
That seems to have a little more credibility, maybe.

799
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:51,880
I don't know.

800
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,880
Donald Trump's down there at the bottom of fourth.

801
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:54,880
Oh, God.

802
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:55,880
Really?

803
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:56,880
What are they basing that on?

804
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:57,880
Yeah, it's just...

805
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,280
I want to know the metric, the criteria.

806
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,920
Well, he has points right there, right?

807
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,840
2021 final score, that's why Biden's not in there.

808
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,320
There you go.

809
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,320
Oh, whatever.

810
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,120
Well, so it's a vote.

811
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,160
I was thinking that AI would actually produce a list.

812
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:14,160
Typically they would.

813
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,000
You want to go chat GPT and say...

814
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,320
Well, I don't know if we have chat GPT on there.

815
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:20,720
I'm kind of curious what it says.

816
00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:22,080
This is the Chucksters computer, so I don't know.

817
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,080
I can try it on my phone.

818
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,080
You want me to try that?

819
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,520
Ranking U.S. presidents from best to worst is inherently subjective.

820
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:28,520
Thank you with being honest.

821
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:29,520
Of course it is.

822
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:33,440
It depends on criteria used such as leadership, crisis management, policy impact or legacy.

823
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,760
However, there is a general ranking based on the combination of historical surveys,

824
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,960
scholars' opinions and public consensus.

825
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:44,440
All right, number one, Abraham Lincoln, George Strait, George Washington.

826
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:45,440
George Strait.

827
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:46,440
Yep, I know.

828
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,440
I didn't even know he was president.

829
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,720
God, what year was that?

830
00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:54,440
Franklin Roosevelt, Roosevelt, two Roosevelts in a row, back to back.

831
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:55,440
Well, excuse me.

832
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:56,440
All right, mid-tier.

833
00:35:56,440 --> 00:36:03,920
Truman, Eisenhower, JFK, Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama, controversial or mixed legacy presidents,

834
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:08,920
Andrew Jackson, Woodrow Wilson, Bill Clinton, George W. and Donald Trump.

835
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:15,040
Bottom presidents, Herbert Hoover, Richard Nixon, Harding, Andrew Johnson and Buchanan,

836
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,160
which means they haven't ranked.

837
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,360
I guess they haven't ranked.

838
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:20,360
What's his name?

839
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:21,360
Biden yet because he's not done.

840
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,360
Oh, what are we doing here?

841
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,800
Is this a live stream?

842
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:26,800
I don't know.

843
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:27,800
Is it a real?

844
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,640
We got Jeff on the Dudes Like Us podcast.

845
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:31,640
I'm doing a real.

846
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:32,640
Yeah, you just decided to...

847
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:33,640
Instagram.

848
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,240
You just decided to go rogue and...

849
00:36:35,240 --> 00:36:36,240
I did.

850
00:36:36,240 --> 00:36:37,240
That's all right.

851
00:36:37,240 --> 00:36:38,240
...start filming during the podcast.

852
00:36:38,240 --> 00:36:39,240
So the...

853
00:36:39,240 --> 00:36:40,240
It doesn't sound like it's...

854
00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:41,240
Well, you know what?

855
00:36:41,240 --> 00:36:42,240
It's difficult to rank, though.

856
00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:46,120
It's difficult to read some of those lists because, like it said, there's so many things

857
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,120
to consider.

858
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,320
But they had Trump in the top portion, though, it sounded like.

859
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,440
No, I thought it was the bottom portion.

860
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:53,440
Was it really?

861
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:54,440
I thought it...

862
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,320
You said it was Trump, then you said, now for the bottom portion.

863
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,320
Did I?

864
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:58,320
I thought...

865
00:36:58,320 --> 00:36:59,320
Yeah, you said it kind of weird.

866
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:00,320
I said it weird.

867
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:01,320
Yeah, you did.

868
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:02,320
OK, no, Donald...

869
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:07,760
OK, he was in the controversial or mixed legacy present.

870
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:08,760
Mixed legacy.

871
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:13,360
Yeah, he's number 15 in the Donald Trump under George W.

872
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,360
Well, I mean, look...

873
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:16,360
No, I don't know.

874
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:17,360
It's very subjective.

875
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:18,360
And it said that.

876
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:23,600
We had a president die, Jimmy Carter, and he had a fantastic life.

877
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,560
Yeah, 100 years.

878
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,880
Yeah, 75 years, 76 years with his wife.

879
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,640
He would pop up every now and then.

880
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:32,640
He'd make some comments.

881
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:37,000
But I think for the most part, he stayed out of the limelight, didn't he?

882
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,160
Most of them do, other than...

883
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:40,160
Barack.

884
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:41,800
I was going to say, some of the most recent ones.

885
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:42,800
Lord Barack.

886
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:48,560
Seriously, seriously, as soon as you are done with your presidency, you're out.

887
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:49,840
We don't need to hear from you.

888
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:50,840
Ever.

889
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,800
Never then, nah, I mean, when they do like Pearl Harbor.

890
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,120
Well, I mean...

891
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,720
You know where all the presidents need to stand together in unity?

892
00:37:58,720 --> 00:37:59,880
Yeah, that's good, too.

893
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:00,880
But when Barry...

894
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:09,280
When Barry was sitting at that promotion for Kamel Toe Harris, when he was saying, I mean,

895
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:13,100
right before the election, he was still saying, yeah, well, there's still good people on both

896
00:38:13,100 --> 00:38:14,100
sides.

897
00:38:14,100 --> 00:38:15,100
Very fine people.

898
00:38:15,100 --> 00:38:16,100
Very fine people.

899
00:38:16,100 --> 00:38:17,100
I mean, it's just the fact that he said that.

900
00:38:17,100 --> 00:38:18,100
Crazy.

901
00:38:18,100 --> 00:38:19,100
I know it.

902
00:38:19,100 --> 00:38:20,100
Dude, come on.

903
00:38:20,100 --> 00:38:24,860
ruined it. Even his own party's like, yeah extra states left bro, you're done.

904
00:38:24,860 --> 00:38:30,860
Yeah they're done with the Obamas I think. I think so too. Which is good.

905
00:38:30,860 --> 00:38:37,140
So I want to talk about something. What about Michelle? She's being called out for her holiday season comment.

906
00:38:37,140 --> 00:38:41,340
What did she say? I saw something. It's gonna say Merry Christmas like most of the planets.

907
00:38:41,340 --> 00:38:44,620
In fact I posted something on her Instagram I don't know if you saw it.

908
00:38:44,620 --> 00:38:48,300
It said Merry Christmas United States and they have the red United States of all the

909
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:53,380
republicans and happy holidays and they have the blue highlighted.

910
00:38:53,380 --> 00:39:01,780
Yeah I'm still good though. I wonder if some people don't know that that if it

911
00:39:01,780 --> 00:39:05,860
irks people when you say happy holidays instead of Merry Christmas.

912
00:39:05,860 --> 00:39:11,220
I don't know. It's interesting because in Europe they say Happy Christmas.

913
00:39:11,220 --> 00:39:19,180
So I've learned through my job and you probably have too being in the corporate world.

914
00:39:19,180 --> 00:39:27,540
You know it's I say Merry Christmas and I've been informed that I should be saying happy holidays.

915
00:39:27,540 --> 00:39:33,180
You were told that? Yeah. Like in my form? Email? It wasn't a direct email towards me.

916
00:39:33,180 --> 00:39:40,220
It was a general email. These are preferred ways to respond.

917
00:39:40,220 --> 00:39:44,660
But why do you feel like it was directed at you?

918
00:39:44,660 --> 00:39:49,100
No it wasn't directed at me. Oh okay. I thought you were being singled out because.

919
00:39:49,100 --> 00:39:58,140
No no no. I got the same things when I was a corporate. I got those same type of emails.

920
00:39:58,140 --> 00:40:02,740
I'm still liberal. Hold on and you're saying that they were saying hey guys.

921
00:40:02,740 --> 00:40:09,140
Instead of saying Merry Christmas. No no no no. I disagree. We can say whatever the fuck we want man.

922
00:40:09,140 --> 00:40:13,660
I do and I did and I still do. Don't tell me I can't say Merry Christmas.

923
00:40:13,660 --> 00:40:19,260
My little letterhead on the bottom has my name and then I like Thanksgiving I'll have a little turkey.

924
00:40:19,260 --> 00:40:23,820
In Christmas I'll have a little Christmas tree. In you know February I have a little heart.

925
00:40:23,820 --> 00:40:29,340
A little cupid and Halloween I have a little pumpkin. You know I try to make it fun.

926
00:40:29,340 --> 00:40:36,060
You know just let people know hey I'm human. I didn't understand when I was a kid. Xmas.

927
00:40:36,060 --> 00:40:41,020
I still don't understand. They're taking Christ out of Christmas.

928
00:40:41,020 --> 00:40:46,620
Is that the real thing? I thought it was just a way to shorten it. Is it? Is it? I don't know.

929
00:40:46,620 --> 00:40:51,060
I'm not on board with that and then when Shelley explained to me or I don't know who it was explained to me.

930
00:40:51,060 --> 00:40:57,300
My mom maybe? I was like Merry Xmas. Merry Xmas. You know what I mean? Just doing what a little kid does.

931
00:40:57,300 --> 00:41:03,700
And then somebody said to me uh uh. You don't say Xmas. You say Christmas. Just like Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

932
00:41:03,700 --> 00:41:11,260
Alright so people use the abbreviation Xmas for Christmas because the X represents the Greek letter chi which is the first letter of the Greek word Christos.

933
00:41:11,260 --> 00:41:18,500
Yeah but I kind of call bullshit. Well that's the official AI overview. AI.

934
00:41:18,500 --> 00:41:30,060
I mean what do you guys think? Am I being am I am I uninformed on this one? Well I know there's well I don't know I've never heard that but I know there is a group of folks or that say that you aren't removing Christ from Christmas.

935
00:41:30,060 --> 00:41:35,260
That's what I get with it. Whether it's the case or not. But I didn't know about this Greek thing.

936
00:41:35,260 --> 00:41:47,140
So the origin the abbreviation originated in the 1500s as a way to to represent Christ across languages the X was meant to be read as the Greek letter chi not the English pronunciation of X.

937
00:41:47,140 --> 00:41:52,300
Alright if we're supposed to take that for what it is then I retract. So it's Chimus? It's Chimus.

938
00:41:52,300 --> 00:42:01,660
But look I always thought it was an abbreviated form of Christmas. That's all I was. I was like I don't have enough room to put all that in there.

939
00:42:01,660 --> 00:42:06,060
And when you when you mentioned that you take the Christ out of Christmas yeah that kind of rings a bell to me.

940
00:42:06,060 --> 00:42:14,300
I don't know who planted that in my head when I was little or you know you know sub-adult but yeah that was probably Father Joseph.

941
00:42:14,300 --> 00:42:22,860
Probably. Well you still say Christmas. Christ. Christ. Miss. Christmas. Yeah you still say it. Christ-class. As you used to write it.

942
00:42:22,860 --> 00:42:27,500
True true. I don't know I don't know if that's a conspiracy or not but I don't know.

943
00:42:27,500 --> 00:42:32,220
Well I've always thought I actually I think it was because of you.

944
00:42:32,220 --> 00:42:38,460
Um. Yeah what? That's the first time I've ever brought it up to anyone. No no no you you've brought it up to me in the past. Did I? Yep.

945
00:42:38,460 --> 00:42:44,700
I remember it's okay it's okay because I had said something about in some sort of past email or text message ex-message.

946
00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:51,340
Don't you ever do that again Sean. You didn't say it like that. Oh I didn't. You were just like I hate you. Oh it's even better.

947
00:42:51,340 --> 00:42:56,380
No but you you brought it up and I was like well maybe that does mean that you know they don't have Google like they have now.

948
00:42:56,380 --> 00:43:00,700
So I didn't fact check you realize you're full of shit. I was just like I said well maybe he's right.

949
00:43:00,700 --> 00:43:10,940
You know and you should have assumed I was full of shit come on. No no no but because they're that does have some merit to it. It does. Because I mean it's it does. Christ is missing. It doesn't look good ex-message.

950
00:43:10,940 --> 00:43:20,060
But it's been around since the 1500s. Yeah I don't know. Were they doing that back then? That seems I don't know. Were they PC back then? They put that on tablets.

951
00:43:20,060 --> 00:43:27,580
Well it says the abbreviation originated in the mid 1500s. The Rosetta Stone. Is that on there? It's not on there. It's not on there. I can promise.

952
00:43:27,580 --> 00:43:37,180
All right hey I want to bring up something else. It's not some Samarian text. I know this is kind of a maybe not a left turn but hey I want to talk about the horrific story on the subway. New York City.

953
00:43:37,180 --> 00:43:43,980
Oh my god. I know there's a downer. There's a downer but there's a good story about it. It's a good spin on it. How? How could that be good?

954
00:43:43,980 --> 00:43:53,980
Okay so this you know there's all sorts of carnage that's happening on the damn New York City subway right? Right. And and the governor's like oh it's safe and and blah blah blah blah blah blah.

955
00:43:53,980 --> 00:44:05,500
I read a story today that the Guardian Angels, I don't even know who they are. Is that a gang? Who are the Guardian Angels? So they are a gang. They are liberated through a community that used to be in gangs.

956
00:44:05,500 --> 00:44:20,220
And they're just they're a community non-profit organization. They just a group of guys that get together and hey we're going to patrol our own neighborhoods and we're going to make sure that the people so that people like Daniel Penny don't get put in an uncompromising position where they have to choke someone out and accidentally kill them.

957
00:44:20,220 --> 00:44:34,220
Oh you know they're going to be in the same position by the way. Not as a group. Do they call those uh is it renegades or vigilantes? Vigilantes. Is that kind of they call them vigilantes? Yeah but they're sanctioned. A point is well. By who? The city.

958
00:44:34,220 --> 00:44:47,020
Can you check that out Mr. Producer? Are the Guardian Angels that they have they are now going to patrol the subways of New York City because after that woman was burned to death by the homeless dude. They need it bad. They need it so bad.

959
00:44:47,020 --> 00:45:00,540
And I'm like okay well I wanted to know who are these Guardian Angels? Are they sanctioned by the by the New York Police Department? Okay sanctioned was probably a little bit too too strong but they're recognized. I'm happy I'm happy that I heard that.

960
00:45:00,540 --> 00:45:10,300
Okay it says all right let's see what we got here. It says Guardian Angels resume New York City patrols after subway burning death. Never seen it this bad. Okay.

961
00:45:10,300 --> 00:45:36,060
So what who are they? They're a volunteer crime prevention group. Okay but are they are they immune to the Daniel Penny? No this is back in the late 70s. So they're not they're okay look they they are controlling they're controlling the negative influence that is happening on the subways by mass. Preventative. Basically it's like a group of them.

962
00:45:36,060 --> 00:46:06,060
Basically it's men being in the right place at the right time to stop people from doing stupid shit. And they're usually they're in a group like there's four or five guys. And they have jackets I think. Yeah they wear red jackets. Yeah. They're just showing a picture of it right now. Yeah. They look kind of cool. And braids. Yeah. I would do it. And carrying an AK. I don't think they're carrying an AK. Oh they're not? I think it's a bazooka. Oh it's a bazooka. I'd do that. Yeah. I think they only carry Tutsi roll pops. But I love that because and I guarantee the citizens

963
00:46:06,060 --> 00:46:36,060
of New York City love it too. Because it's got to be tired of it. Who else is going to get out there? The Hells Angels? I mean the the Harley-Davidson folks? I mean somebody's got to get out there and do it. Somebody's got to protect the people man. Crazy. I mean look if it were me I would have military soldiers out there. I have the National Guard. Well Hoco put the is it the National Guard into the subways but they were looking at purses. They did? Yeah she did. They were doing what? All they were doing were checking purses. They weren't on the subway itself so it was in the entrance. How would that help?

964
00:46:36,060 --> 00:47:06,060
Why are they checking purses? Hold on. Just the fact that they're present there is a step in the right direction. It is but checking purses? Yeah there was video. She did it about six nine months ago. There are video and there are like the TSA. They're stopping people looking at their purses. Yeah because women pulling out guns out of their purses on the subway seems to be a prevalent crime. Well you're not allowed to have guns in New York anyways. Oh that's right. There are none right? But I'll tell you the. That's right. None. Right. That's great.

965
00:47:06,060 --> 00:47:36,060
That law worked. Yeah. You know the uh god damn it lost my train of thought here. I was talking about how they were checking purses. So the a lot of these people out there it's the immigrants that are causing this. Yeah. Actually that's not true because the Daniel Penny thing wasn't from an immigrant. No. You know it's kind of difficult man. Mental illness. But you've got but you've got these people that are raping raping women in front of a bunch of people. That did nothing. Did nothing except video to record it. That's crazy.

966
00:47:36,060 --> 00:48:06,060
I mean it is crazy. It just. Well they're also talking about potentially going after the folks who sat there while the guy lit that lady on fire. They weren't alone? No. Oh god please. Okay so look how crazy this is. Unbelievable. So they're going to go after the people that didn't do anything and then but when they do do something then you're going to go after them and still. Right. I mean come on. Come on. You nailed it right there. It's ridiculous. I'm so glad he was acquitted by the way. I don't know if we talked about it on the podcast. Amen.

967
00:48:06,060 --> 00:48:21,060
I think that would have set a huge precedent where no one was going to help anyone. They already don't. They already don't but you have folks every now and then step up that would have killed that. Right. Oh it would have been the ender of anybody who even thought about it. Yeah.

968
00:48:21,060 --> 00:48:26,060
This guy who got caught from Guatemala.

969
00:48:26,060 --> 00:48:44,060
He's an illegal alien. Trump sent him back when he was. He came over during Trump. Trump administration found him sent him back. Oh great. And he crept back over during the Biden administration. He's been here for a few years. So my question. So he got caught doing this.

970
00:48:44,060 --> 00:49:03,060
The charge. The charge. No. New York doesn't have death penalty. The harshest they could do is life in prison without parole. Put him life in prison. They'll whack him in prison. So hold on. I think you. So the question is do you send him back with any confidence that he's going to be in prison down there.

971
00:49:03,060 --> 00:49:22,060
And he's just like a turn around and come back or do you pay for him the rest of his life via taxes to be in prison. So what is the name of that movie. Glorious Bastards. So in Gloria in glorious bastards. So remember when Brad Pitt took his knife and put a swastika on the forehead.

972
00:49:22,060 --> 00:49:38,060
And he said we can't have you walk around thinking you're just a regular old Nebraska resident. So he carved a swastika. He did. They need to be branded. They need to wear the Nathaniel Nathaniel Hawthorne scarlet letter. I mean they need to be branded.

973
00:49:38,060 --> 00:49:57,060
I don't know what to say. I so if I were like I don't know president who makes this decision. Let's say I was president. That's probably Holman right. His his right. My station. I would I would contact Guatemala and I would say I'm going to send this person to you.

974
00:49:57,060 --> 00:50:15,060
And you're going to deal with him. Extremely harshly. Hopefully death penalty. Right. Hopefully death penalty. And if you don't. Blah blah blah blah blah blah. That's right. Baby. Yeah. That's what I mean. Do you. That's what I would do. You roll that dice. There's no fucking way I'm spending money. Right. That was the question.

975
00:50:15,060 --> 00:50:30,060
I'm going to send him food and letting him watch TV. I'm so three squares and a looking forward to home and coming in and opening up a can of whoop ass. Oh yeah. You know and just he and he's talking serious. Well this trend or agua or whatever.

976
00:50:30,060 --> 00:50:47,060
You say it. They need to go. Oh they are ready. The gang. Oh they're the one in Aria. The Venezuelan model. The Venezuelan role. They're in Texas to the Venezuelan gang. Oh yeah. They're like in yeah. They're like in 13 states. Yeah. They're all over the place. They're all the big cities. Here's here's what I think is encouraging.

977
00:50:47,060 --> 00:51:06,060
I think for as many people are coming out and say we're going to you know we're going to restrict or block you know the Trump administration as much as we can and we're not going to do this and we're not going to let them do this. There are so many more agents on the ground everywhere that feel helpless.

978
00:51:06,060 --> 00:51:21,060
And are frustrated that they can't do their jobs. Right. And they're going to be empowered and they're going to be on board. Well you'll see this as well where the governor or mayor says that they talk. But the sheriff and the police are like yeah I'm not.

979
00:51:21,060 --> 00:51:38,060
That's exactly that's exactly what I'm talking about. You mean they're not going to provide support. No they'll they'll they'll disobey their governor like when they when they start. There's been some things where they're like we're not going to allow people to own guns in our city or something like that or ice to apprehend.

980
00:51:38,060 --> 00:51:49,060
Yeah. We're a sanctuary city. Yeah the sheriff will come out and go. Yeah our crime is too bad. We'll be helping them. Yep. We'll be. Yeah. So basically disobeying the mayor and the governor and good. Yeah.

981
00:51:49,060 --> 00:52:04,060
Because the sheriff is an elected individual. Yep. Yep. 100 percent. Take it on. I'm working for the people. Well you'll you'll you'll even see sheriffs in California say that kind of stuff. I mean they they. That's where I've seen a lot. Yeah they lay it down. I love it. It's good stuff.

982
00:52:04,060 --> 00:52:22,060
It's what needs to happen. I know. I agree. Yeah they need to get rid of the these bad bad actors. It'll be interesting. There's a lot of bad stuff and it's all over the place. It's it's the the the Palestinian flags that are popping up all over the place.

983
00:52:22,060 --> 00:52:39,060
And it's not. Look I don't care if you raise a Palestinian flag. I don't. It's just it's the it's the crime. It's why are you doing it. It's the whole going through antagonizing people that aren't part of that culture.

984
00:52:39,060 --> 00:52:55,060
It's just like dude do your thing. I mean because that's what we are. We're a big melting pot. OK. You want to be you want to have your religion. You want to have your stuff. Do it. Just don't infringe on other people's rights. Right. You know that's that's respect each other. Right. You know that's the bottom line but they can't assimilate.

985
00:52:55,060 --> 00:53:07,060
That's that's that's the most difficult thing. If you can't assimilate then don't fucking join us. Get the fuck out of here. That's why I think we have some assimilation problems here in Frisco. We do. To be honest.

986
00:53:07,060 --> 00:53:30,060
I would agree with that. Talking about. Well because there's no incentive to. Why do you need to assimilate if if every single part of your culture is available. Yeah. It's been rebuilt here. Yeah. 100 percent. Yeah. I agree with that. I know. All right. Another left. Well I'm trying to think of a way to spin that. But yeah.

987
00:53:30,060 --> 00:53:45,060
Let's do another left. I want I don't want to run out of time for we cover the NFL draft order. Well let's let's roll into H1B visas. Yeah. That's good. That's top of mind right now. Just because Elon has said some things.

988
00:53:45,060 --> 00:54:03,060
I was a little disgruntled that a lot of folks have some issue with. I think H1B needs to be completely revamped. I don't think I'm 100 percent against it but I think it needs to be very narrow. Yes. And right now it's very broad and people are abusing it.

989
00:54:03,060 --> 00:54:32,060
Companies are abusing it. So I will I will tell you this. All right. So a little little context for anybody that's not paying attention to this issue. So I think there is a lot of frustrated Americans that the H1B visa program is being abused. Correct. And it's giving it's giving American jobs so to speak. Jobs that should go to American graduates. Correct. Right. To foreign born people that are being you know at a discount. Yeah. Well and being pumped into this country by by the way.

990
00:54:32,060 --> 00:54:55,060
That is being pumped into this country by by their companies that are just hand over fist getting these H1B visas right. Right. Boom boom boom boom boom. OK. So then with all this context of you know Elon Musk and Vivek and doing the doge. I I was thinking wow maybe maybe those guys are going to like address the fact that we're taking away American jobs.

991
00:54:55,060 --> 00:55:11,060
And Musk immediately came out and said he endorsed H1B big time and said yeah I built my companies on the backs of bright you know engineers that you would not find in America. And then the fact doubled down. Yeah but that's different. Well that's not the abuse that Jeff was mentioned right.

992
00:55:11,060 --> 00:55:30,060
Well it isn't. But but what so that came out and said well those that's our only option because American American teenagers don't have the work ethic. Correct. And they're more concerned about being the prom queen and the prom king than they are about you know.

993
00:55:30,060 --> 00:55:46,060
And he makes a good point. I mean I think that that that's valid. That's culture. Right. So then I was like oh shit. I was hoping that they would take put this under a microscope and see what's not where the abuse is right to your point Sean where the abuse is of this program.

994
00:55:46,060 --> 00:56:04,060
And then Trump came out and said no it's a great program. But today Musk said it's a broken it's a broken system. We need to take a deeper look at it because there is there is abuse. That's the problem with Musk right now is he he opens his mouth a little bit too fast.

995
00:56:04,060 --> 00:56:19,060
And he look Trump is his boss essentially. Oh yeah. Yeah. So I mean he should be respected that he right now he's a headache for Trump by saying that out loud right now. He should have they should have had a powwow before saying stupid things like that because we're all on the same page.

996
00:56:19,060 --> 00:56:35,060
Well I mean I think they were on the same page. But the fact that he said he admitted that there's something to look at. I mean that's all I wanted them to say. Right. Is that the H1B program is got to be. I wonder if there's a lot of reform.

997
00:56:35,060 --> 00:56:46,060
I wonder how that will impact the general area here in Frisco. Some of them will go back go home. That's what I mean because I think there's a lot of some of these H1B programs.

998
00:56:46,060 --> 00:57:06,060
I mean they're able to open up small businesses. You know they get these fantastic loans. Oh yeah. They have houses. Oh yeah. I mean why don't the United States citizens have that opportunity. Yeah I heard on the radio that the good way they put it is you know it should be for like the top one tenth of a percent.

999
00:57:06,060 --> 00:57:23,060
Yes. Engineers stem the brightest of the bright. That's what it's like impossible to staff. Correct. Yeah. And what it's turned into is now you're bringing in marketing teams you're bringing in accountants finance people every possible I.T. job you can think of.

1000
00:57:23,060 --> 00:57:53,060
And you have 50,000 new graduates every year with accounting degrees who are looking for jobs. Yep. And don't can't find one. They can't find one because H1B's are the way. Total bullshit. For an accountant. There shouldn't be an H1B accountant. You know what. And I will tell you from personal experience we did have we had a guy from Ecuador. Super bright. Great project manager. He was one of one of the best employees I've ever had. I'm not saying they're not smart. No no no. But get this though. Did he make great coffee. No I'll admit I'll admit. Where did he get that. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

1001
00:57:53,060 --> 00:58:11,740
Where the flaw was in this. So when you fill out the form to the government that says why do you have to have him. What does he offer that you can't get from an American graduate. It does say that. And you have to put in the justification right. And so we like sat down and we're figuring.

1002
00:58:11,740 --> 00:58:30,140
Because otherwise his visa was going to not be extended and he was going to have to go back to Ecuador. And we didn't want that. I didn't want that. OK. And so I was brainstorming and we were like what are we going to do. And I you know it finally came down to saying how he was bilingual. Right.

1003
00:58:30,140 --> 00:58:44,540
He was totally fluent in Spanish and we had a segment of the business that was Spanish speaking and it wasn't untrue but it wasn't. It's kind of weak. It was weak. But we did it anyway. And I'm sure you could have found a bilingual graduate. Yes.

1004
00:58:44,740 --> 00:58:56,060
And sure enough it got approved and on we go. And then that made me realize that's what's happening. Every single manager like me I was guilty in that situation. Right. Of course it wasn't.

1005
00:58:56,060 --> 00:59:10,460
No it was an IT job but it was a little different. But anyway but that's what they're doing. They're saying they're saying no one else can do this job. This is this for a DEI kind of concept. No no no no. This is this is a skill set that you cannot find domestically.

1006
00:59:10,460 --> 00:59:23,860
And that's why I have to this guy has to do the job for me. And that's why his H1B visa needs to be the whole thing is broken. It's broken. It's broken. There's no you know I mean there's no.

1007
00:59:23,860 --> 00:59:36,260
Well it's a perfect thing for the Department of Government. Excess. Excess or is that what it is? Excess? No government efficiency. Yeah. I like mine better. It is better. Alright let's send Musk an email.

1008
00:59:37,460 --> 00:59:43,060
Anyway so yeah I know we hammered on that but anyway it does need to be fixed. Well we need to jump on to the.

1009
00:59:46,860 --> 00:59:51,260
Wild war of sports. I thought it was wild war of sports. What it was doing with the boozy baking company thing but.

1010
00:59:51,260 --> 00:59:59,300
No it's breaking news. Yeah it's breaking news. Hi this is Mike. This is Walter. Dan Rather like Dan Rather.

1011
00:59:59,300 --> 01:00:07,300
Hi I'm in the middle of an aircraft carrier or a helicopter and I'm flying. Was that Dan Rather that lied? No that was Tom Brokaw. That's Peter Jennings.

1012
01:00:07,300 --> 01:00:15,700
That's Peter Jennings wasn't it? Okay do we have time to talk about. In the Philadelphia let's do this real quick. Here's why I want to talk about this. This is crazy.

1013
01:00:15,700 --> 01:00:24,500
So the New York Giants alright they had two wins and Luck. What's his name? Luck?

1014
01:00:24,500 --> 01:00:36,700
Luck. He throws for 330 yards and five touchdowns and the Giants beat the Indianapolis Colts and knocked the Colts out of playoff contention.

1015
01:00:36,700 --> 01:00:42,100
Right and everybody's like wow what an upset. That's such a cool thing and all the fans are like what the fuck.

1016
01:00:42,100 --> 01:00:53,100
You just blew our chance at the number one pick in the draft. In my opinion these players are paid to win. Yes. Not to take games for the next year.

1017
01:00:53,100 --> 01:00:59,100
And it's so jacked up because in the press conference they were like you know they're all excited. All the players are excited. They want to win.

1018
01:00:59,100 --> 01:01:05,100
They want to win and then one of the reporters was like how do you feel about basically how do you feel about blowing the number one pick by winning?

1019
01:01:05,100 --> 01:01:13,100
And the guy was like no comment because he was like fuck you. It's like that's not what this sport's about. Yeah they get paid to play.

1020
01:01:13,100 --> 01:01:21,100
And you know what if their stats are going to dictate what they get paid next year you don't want to you want as much as you can every single game.

1021
01:01:21,100 --> 01:01:28,100
Yeah. Yeah. It's just crazy to me because the funny thing about this I'm a Titans fan. They suck this year. Three wins.

1022
01:01:28,100 --> 01:01:37,100
And by New York winning Jacksonville winning now Tennessee has plopped into the second spot. There it is right there.

1023
01:01:37,100 --> 01:01:42,100
How is that? How come there's so many have they played each other. It's based on strength of schedule.

1024
01:01:42,100 --> 01:01:50,100
That is OK. So there is a so it's like so it's like the college playoffs. Yes there is a metric. It's strength of schedule.

1025
01:01:50,100 --> 01:02:06,100
And so our our schedule was easy or harder harder. Who cares. I think easier because if your schedule is easier that means you suck worse.

1026
01:02:06,100 --> 01:02:12,100
Right. If you think about it right. So we had an easier schedule than the Browns and the Giants. And so we're now at number two.

1027
01:02:12,100 --> 01:02:20,100
I just think it's funny as hell because here I am watching the game. I wanted to lose which never happened as my whole fandom.

1028
01:02:20,100 --> 01:02:27,100
Right. I wanted I wanted to play hard the team to play hard but lose. And now all these other things happened.

1029
01:02:27,100 --> 01:02:36,100
And so now the Titans have a chance of picking up one of the top two quarterbacks in the draft where the where the Bengals the Cowboys let's see Cowboys at 13.

1030
01:02:36,100 --> 01:02:44,100
Now you're 16 16. So they're eight and eight. Go back to the Cowboys. What were those eight seven nine seven nine.

1031
01:02:44,100 --> 01:02:50,100
Yeah I just wanted your take on it was just a different experience for me watching these games this last weekend.

1032
01:02:50,100 --> 01:02:57,100
I was my only concern was the draft order not the playoffs the draft order because I had a shitty team.

1033
01:02:57,100 --> 01:03:03,100
I think the Titans won you'd be disappointed. I would have been disappointed. That's wrong.

1034
01:03:03,100 --> 01:03:09,100
I think I know your team to win. Well I want them to play hard but I didn't want them to win.

1035
01:03:09,100 --> 01:03:15,100
Okay well we get that's crazy right. I understand the motivation but I still think you want your team to win.

1036
01:03:15,100 --> 01:03:23,100
Three wins. What's the point. Well then why just why play. Okay so only thing we care about right now is why play.

1037
01:03:23,100 --> 01:03:29,100
The analogy I agree with the analogy is running out the clock concept. You're basically running out the clock.

1038
01:03:29,100 --> 01:03:35,100
Yeah yeah to end it and to get status quo. I don't want to fucking lose. I want to just go I forfeit.

1039
01:03:35,100 --> 01:03:39,100
I'll lose the last three games. Well but none of the players want to do that and I love that.

1040
01:03:39,100 --> 01:03:44,100
I love that because I want to watch a competitive game and it was a competitive game and they were well not the Cowboys.

1041
01:03:44,100 --> 01:03:51,100
They were the Eagles. That was terrible. What's spanking. And then that fight. I didn't see the game.

1042
01:03:51,100 --> 01:03:59,100
Dude the fight where the safety of the Eagles threw the guy into the tunnel and it got ugly. I didn't see that.

1043
01:03:59,100 --> 01:04:04,100
And slammed him down on the pavement in the tunnel. Play that for us Mr. Producer if you can find it.

1044
01:04:04,100 --> 01:04:11,100
Producers know by the way how are the Cowboys 7 and 9. My god. They suck. They suck. They're 2 and 6 at home.

1045
01:04:11,100 --> 01:04:19,100
Home. Yeah and didn't they start out strong. I mean like weren't they like 5 and 2 or 6 and 2. No.

1046
01:04:19,100 --> 01:04:23,100
Well we have our front line that's all banged up and you know the only receiver we have.

1047
01:04:23,100 --> 01:04:32,100
The only star we have is like CD Lamb and we spent some money getting our running back Ezekiel Elliott who's a big shlap knob.

1048
01:04:32,100 --> 01:04:41,100
Why were you not watching the game Sean? I was doing domestic duty. No you went to Costco.

1049
01:04:41,100 --> 01:04:47,100
You said hey I'm going to Costco at 1 o'clock and I looked at the schedule like the Cowboys are playing. I didn't go at 1.

1050
01:04:47,100 --> 01:04:53,100
I'm just saying. Here I am watching the Titans in their 3 and fucking 13. Well you know what you could have said that.

1051
01:04:53,100 --> 01:04:57,100
What's wrong with you guys? Honestly I thought the Cowboys were playing at night. Okay.

1052
01:04:57,100 --> 01:05:02,100
That's honestly that's what I thought it was. You didn't miss anything. Alright show us the video. Here we go. This is ugly guys.

1053
01:05:02,100 --> 01:05:09,100
This is what started it. What an official field judge. He got tied up in a 2. Watch this guy.

1054
01:05:09,100 --> 01:05:14,100
He just turns into a scrum there. Slams him down on the pavement in the tunnel.

1055
01:05:14,100 --> 01:05:20,100
It was not pretty. I don't know if that was a slam. I just think he was. Well if you see from a different angle he.

1056
01:05:20,100 --> 01:05:24,100
Did he bounce? He bounced. He bounced.

1057
01:05:24,100 --> 01:05:30,100
Look at this. I did see this. I didn't know what. I tuned back in for this. Oh that was a prayer group.

1058
01:05:30,100 --> 01:05:35,100
That is not a prayer group. Did they pull out the base? The pepper spray?

1059
01:05:35,100 --> 01:05:41,100
Right. That was a college football team. Right. Right. Oh crazy.

1060
01:05:41,100 --> 01:05:47,100
Tell you what that bangle game was kind of crazy. It was crazy. He missed the field goal. I was just like.

1061
01:05:47,100 --> 01:05:52,100
Didn't it hit the post? Yeah. Oh I was laughing my ass off. Not to your detriment.

1062
01:05:52,100 --> 01:05:57,100
But you ended up winning anyway. Dude they stormed down and scored a touchdown and boom it was over.

1063
01:05:57,100 --> 01:06:03,100
Yes. We watched it. We were into that game. Yeah that was a good game. Joe Burrow is. He's on a game. He's on a roll.

1064
01:06:03,100 --> 01:06:08,100
He's one of the best seasons of any quarterback. Yes he is.

1065
01:06:08,100 --> 01:06:14,100
We've got a toast to Burrow and the Bengals. Hey guys I want a toast. We can toast to that.

1066
01:06:14,100 --> 01:06:20,100
I want to toast to the Dudes Like Us podcast. We have a 2024 into the 2025.

1067
01:06:20,100 --> 01:06:26,100
We had a great year. This is the last podcast of 2024. We've got the Chuckster sitting at the production wheel.

1068
01:06:26,100 --> 01:06:30,100
What a perfect way to end the year with Chuckster at the wheel.

1069
01:06:30,100 --> 01:06:36,100
You know we're going to. It's a new edition and we're going to be sliding Austin in and out until Chuck gets moved into here.

1070
01:06:36,100 --> 01:06:40,100
While Austin's away in college and we'll just kind of firm this up.

1071
01:06:43,100 --> 01:06:48,100
And we're toasting with something that's special. It is special.

1072
01:06:48,100 --> 01:06:53,100
It's special because of what the name brand. It's special.

1073
01:06:53,100 --> 01:07:00,100
The biggest reason I think it's special is because it's so fucking hot and it doesn't taste anything like what it is.

1074
01:07:00,100 --> 01:07:06,100
It's 131.1 proof and it tastes like it's 115. 110.

1075
01:07:06,100 --> 01:07:09,100
What do we got there? Mr. Producer what is it?

1076
01:07:09,100 --> 01:07:14,100
This is Jack Daniels single barrel proof rye whiskey.

1077
01:07:14,100 --> 01:07:17,100
It's single barrel, barrel proof rye.

1078
01:07:17,100 --> 01:07:19,100
Right. And it's a store pick.

1079
01:07:19,100 --> 01:07:25,100
It's a store pick for the total wine. Thanks Stan. Thanks Stan. Thanks Kevin.

1080
01:07:25,100 --> 01:07:31,100
You guys help us out whenever there's something in you kind of give us a little heads up.

1081
01:07:31,100 --> 01:07:36,100
We can't save it for you but you guys can get here quick while I key straight and hide it for you.

1082
01:07:36,100 --> 01:07:41,100
Yeah. Even my wife drank this and she had me pour some in the cup for her.

1083
01:07:41,100 --> 01:07:44,100
Yeah. She wanted more. She's like that tastes really good and it's not hot.

1084
01:07:44,100 --> 01:07:47,100
Here's the nose. Spearmint. Caramel. Cedar. Cedar.

1085
01:07:47,100 --> 01:07:52,100
What did I tell you when I first smelled it? You said. There's mint. Cinnamon.

1086
01:07:52,100 --> 01:07:56,100
I heard pine. Mint. And petroleum.

1087
01:07:56,100 --> 01:07:59,100
Just oil. Smells like Earl.

1088
01:07:59,100 --> 01:08:04,100
Now you said mint. Yes I said. And.

1089
01:08:04,100 --> 01:08:07,100
Tea. My green tea. Yep.

1090
01:08:07,100 --> 01:08:10,100
Okay the last thing on here is circus peanut. Really?

1091
01:08:10,100 --> 01:08:13,100
The candy. It's not enough to say peanut.

1092
01:08:13,100 --> 01:08:17,100
Well that's the candy peanut. Oh candy peanut. I got you.

1093
01:08:17,100 --> 01:08:19,100
I've never heard it called circus peanut before.

1094
01:08:19,100 --> 01:08:23,100
Well the tasting notes of rice, spice, fruits, toasted,

1095
01:08:23,100 --> 01:08:27,100
oak, caramel, vanilla, dark chocolate. Some say it's thick, creamy, mouthful.

1096
01:08:27,100 --> 01:08:32,100
Others say it's velvety on the tongue. Here are some more tasting notes from reviews.

1097
01:08:32,100 --> 01:08:35,100
The raisin and burnt oak.

1098
01:08:35,100 --> 01:08:38,100
Raisin. I can pick up raisin. These add depth to the nose.

1099
01:08:38,100 --> 01:08:42,100
The butterscotch and caramel. These weave into the palate.

1100
01:08:42,100 --> 01:08:44,100
Leather and this injury. Leather and cigar box.

1101
01:08:44,100 --> 01:08:47,100
I actually pick up banana. That's in the finish as well.

1102
01:08:47,100 --> 01:08:50,100
Absolutely. I taste bananas. I smell banana for sure.

1103
01:08:50,100 --> 01:08:53,100
And bananas is a classic Jack Daniel's note in case you weren't one.

1104
01:08:53,100 --> 01:08:56,100
What does a cigar box taste?

1105
01:08:56,100 --> 01:08:59,100
Well you know what a cigar box smells like right? Oh I do.

1106
01:08:59,100 --> 01:09:05,100
So the cigar box are traditionally made out of wood and then you've got the cigar.

1107
01:09:05,100 --> 01:09:09,100
No it's where the cigar is resting in the box. There's ashes everywhere.

1108
01:09:09,100 --> 01:09:13,100
You take your fingers and you scoop them up. Oh but you also said green apple.

1109
01:09:13,100 --> 01:09:19,100
And the green apple is listed on this. Dark cherry, candy fruit, eucalyptus, green apple and a marzipan.

1110
01:09:19,100 --> 01:09:23,100
Marz-bar. Marz-a-pan. Marz-a-pan.

1111
01:09:23,100 --> 01:09:27,100
Marz-a-pan. That's very particular. These notes dance along on your tongue.

1112
01:09:27,100 --> 01:09:30,100
Mint chocolate chip dipped raspberry.

1113
01:09:30,100 --> 01:09:32,100
I pick a lot of that up. I do.

1114
01:09:32,100 --> 01:09:35,100
What do you think Chuck? What say you there, see?

1115
01:09:35,100 --> 01:09:38,100
131. It's good stuff.

1116
01:09:38,100 --> 01:09:40,100
He didn't like it.

1117
01:09:40,100 --> 01:09:43,100
And for the price.

1118
01:09:43,100 --> 01:09:45,100
You didn't like it there? 60 bucks.

1119
01:09:45,100 --> 01:09:48,100
Oh I tasted the mint on there. Did you like it or not?

1120
01:09:48,100 --> 01:09:50,100
I said it's good stuff. Good stuff.

1121
01:09:50,100 --> 01:09:52,100
For a rye? I don't normally like ryes.

1122
01:09:52,100 --> 01:09:55,100

1127
