00:00:08.389 --> 00:00:12.949
Hey there, everybody. This is season five, episode

00:00:12.949 --> 00:00:18.410
10 of the Mark Mo Show, Seasons in the Abyss.

00:00:18.829 --> 00:00:22.530
Welcome. Welcome to our little podcast. Now,

00:00:22.629 --> 00:00:26.550
just about completing five seasons with you fine,

00:00:26.629 --> 00:00:29.550
beautiful people and my amazing co -host and

00:00:29.550 --> 00:00:32.719
producer of the Mark Mo Show. Amongst many other

00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:34.920
things. Aidan Maloney, how are you? Hola! Doing

00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:37.979
pretty good, pretty chillin'. A bit of a long

00:00:37.979 --> 00:00:41.140
week got rained on, which was kind of refreshing,

00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:43.960
actually. It was like one of those warm rains.

00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:46.899
Right. You know? It's like nature's way of saying,

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.359
yeah, winter's just about done. Right. And then

00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:52.140
go figure, because we're in the Midwest, there's

00:00:52.140 --> 00:00:54.880
like a 80 % chance of snow on Wednesday, and

00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:57.560
it's like, god damn it! Yep. This is why we can't

00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:00.200
have nice things. It's exactly why we can't have

00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.289
nice things. Absolutely devastating. It's diabolical.

00:01:04.049 --> 00:01:05.829
Diabolical's a good word for it. It is a good

00:01:05.829 --> 00:01:09.129
word. It's a word that I get from my friend Papa.

00:01:09.609 --> 00:01:11.189
And if you know, you know. And if you don't,

00:01:11.430 --> 00:01:13.930
too bad for you. An excellent adjective. Mm -hmm.

00:01:14.069 --> 00:01:15.670
Yeah. Thanks. Appreciate that. For sure. Yeah,

00:01:15.670 --> 00:01:18.969
no doubt. Well, you made it. Did I? Sure. That's

00:01:18.969 --> 00:01:26.310
special. Anyway, god, five seasons. Aiden also

00:01:26.310 --> 00:01:29.049
has his own YouTube gaming channel called Aiden

00:01:29.049 --> 00:01:32.030
Spelled the Right Way. PC gaming content like

00:01:32.030 --> 00:01:34.189
GeoGuess or PolyBridge, Observation of Duty,

00:01:34.790 --> 00:01:37.170
and much more every week. Lots of horror movie

00:01:37.170 --> 00:01:40.829
content. Well, horror movie game, horror game.

00:01:41.890 --> 00:01:43.750
You know what, I'm not gonna explain it. What

00:01:43.750 --> 00:01:46.329
you need to do is you need to go to YouTube and

00:01:46.329 --> 00:01:48.189
check that shit out is exactly what you have

00:01:48.189 --> 00:01:53.390
to do. And Aidan, what's going on right now on

00:01:53.390 --> 00:01:56.290
your gaming channel? What's new? It's been a

00:01:56.290 --> 00:01:59.170
fantastic time. I've been playing a lot of, well.

00:01:59.469 --> 00:02:02.530
It's all new games to me, but a lot of newer

00:02:02.530 --> 00:02:05.230
releases as well. I just played one the other

00:02:05.230 --> 00:02:09.069
day called the 18th Attic Oh, which is kind of

00:02:09.069 --> 00:02:11.210
one of those like looping horror games almost

00:02:11.210 --> 00:02:16.330
pt -esque where Not to give out too many spoilers,

00:02:16.430 --> 00:02:18.870
but let's just say a freaky mannequin might chase

00:02:18.870 --> 00:02:22.250
me around as I'm panicked lead trying to make

00:02:22.250 --> 00:02:27.189
sure I don't die to anomalous poltergeists That's

00:02:27.189 --> 00:02:30.030
terrifying in your own attic It can be right

00:02:30.030 --> 00:02:33.250
at home, and you'd never know. Never know. Yeah,

00:02:33.430 --> 00:02:37.229
very excellent game, though. Much enjoyed. Yeah,

00:02:38.150 --> 00:02:43.050
I'm one, and I've watched enough of your content,

00:02:43.150 --> 00:02:46.229
especially on the horror side of things. Not

00:02:46.229 --> 00:02:49.530
only is the commentary hilarious, but some of

00:02:49.530 --> 00:02:53.530
these games are legit scary. Oh, yeah. And this

00:02:53.530 --> 00:02:57.680
coming from a dude, like, I'm... Even though

00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:00.520
I'm a little older, I still consider myself a

00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.900
tough guy until something puts me down for good,

00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:07.060
I suppose. I can get up from being hit from a

00:03:07.060 --> 00:03:11.539
car, so I got that going for me. But I will be

00:03:11.539 --> 00:03:15.199
damned if I'm not gonna hightail it out of a

00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:18.099
house or an apartment or any sort of building.

00:03:18.500 --> 00:03:20.400
I start hearing some noises, I know I'm the only

00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:22.180
motherfucker there, and all of a sudden it's

00:03:22.180 --> 00:03:24.650
like tink. bump. And I'm like, I'm not doing

00:03:24.650 --> 00:03:27.469
the dink and the bump. Somebody else is. Clearly.

00:03:28.210 --> 00:03:32.830
And they now are the ownership of this area.

00:03:32.990 --> 00:03:35.909
So I shall make my leave. Ski -daddle. I shall

00:03:35.909 --> 00:03:39.650
ski -daddle because what I don't know I fear

00:03:39.650 --> 00:03:42.580
a great deal. You know, then you feel like a

00:03:42.580 --> 00:03:44.120
jerk. You turn the corners like a little kitten

00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.159
near and then you're like, wow, gosh damn it.

00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:48.460
Yeah. Wow. Holy cow. But then I'd probably still

00:03:48.460 --> 00:03:51.240
run because it's cat. Sure. Cats have these mystical

00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:54.599
powers. Freaks me out. But at any rate, yeah,

00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:57.580
man, it's good stuff. I think anyone, especially

00:03:57.580 --> 00:03:59.819
spooky, especially if you really are into the

00:03:59.819 --> 00:04:01.780
horror movie genres, there's a lot of great content.

00:04:01.819 --> 00:04:06.099
Yes. Yeah, I agree. Just fantastic. So that being

00:04:06.099 --> 00:04:08.919
said. We came up with this great idea. We do

00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:14.199
have a few. And that great idea is, we're like,

00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.100
hey, why don't we take the chaos and the improv

00:04:17.100 --> 00:04:18.720
and all the stuff that we do here on the Mark

00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:23.500
Mo Show and merge it together with some gaming,

00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:28.019
kind of that chocolate in the peanut butter situation.

00:04:28.660 --> 00:04:31.079
And it's been going swimmingly. So that's the

00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.660
A &M Gaming channel. Oh, both are on YouTube,

00:04:33.660 --> 00:04:39.420
by the way. And it's been a lot of fun. It's

00:04:39.420 --> 00:04:41.420
been very fun. Yeah. It's been a lot of fun.

00:04:41.660 --> 00:04:47.519
And so we had been doing, gosh, for like five

00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:52.220
weeks running this Dream Daddy. Dream Daddy.

00:04:53.740 --> 00:04:55.600
It sounds just like that. That's why we have

00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.560
an album. Yeah. So yeah. So we do this Dream

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:04.240
Daddy game, which has been fun. and allows for

00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:07.279
all that chaos that we've talked about. But we've

00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:09.459
also done things like GeoGuessr, which is a lot

00:05:09.459 --> 00:05:12.740
of fun. We've done the Observation Duty, I think.

00:05:13.100 --> 00:05:15.879
What did we do last, eight? Yes. Observation

00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.319
Duty 8. And it's kind of funny. And if you watch

00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:24.500
it, I'm a bit sleepy. Oh yeah, so we had to crack

00:05:24.500 --> 00:05:27.040
out a little energy drink for you midway through.

00:05:27.259 --> 00:05:28.920
Oh my god, I was definitely a little sleepy.

00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:31.860
I was like, man, I got to get my crap together

00:05:31.860 --> 00:05:34.600
here. And then kind of midway through, all the

00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:37.420
energy drinks hit. And I was just like, oh yeah,

00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:39.920
let's go. And then we solved it. Yeah, we beat

00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:42.759
it. Second try. Wow, I really need to do this

00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.339
when I'm awake. Right, right. But it's a lot

00:05:46.339 --> 00:05:48.459
of fun, guys. So I hope you check that out. Like,

00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:52.660
subscribe, all that kind of good stuff. And yeah,

00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:54.839
there's the Mark Mo Show. I'm trying to think

00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.319
if we're doing anything else, even in my life.

00:05:57.480 --> 00:05:59.040
I don't know. Yeah, I know, right? It's like,

00:05:59.180 --> 00:06:03.579
what's really been going on? Yeah. Got a new

00:06:03.579 --> 00:06:05.860
back pain. Oh, that's exciting. Which is kind

00:06:05.860 --> 00:06:08.259
of fun. That's exciting. Yeah, not sure where

00:06:08.259 --> 00:06:10.420
it came from or if I just worked myself too hard

00:06:10.420 --> 00:06:13.420
yesterday, but I was flying I was flying I was

00:06:13.420 --> 00:06:16.000
not gonna let my my own decrepit body slow me

00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:19.759
down and It is not paid dividends. What's the

00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:24.100
opposite of dividends? losses It's paid losses

00:06:24.100 --> 00:06:28.339
losses. Yeah. Oh, yeah the loss of a back that

00:06:28.339 --> 00:06:31.759
didn't hurt as much But that's new that's been

00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:34.459
going on. Yeah. Yeah lifting heavy things can

00:06:34.459 --> 00:06:37.759
can do that. Yeah, I am I've kind of been in

00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:39.959
the same boat, but that was, you know, I'm almost

00:06:39.959 --> 00:06:42.660
two weeks out from being hit by a car. Not in

00:06:42.660 --> 00:06:45.800
my car. I got hit physically by a car. As a pedestrian.

00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:49.579
As a pedestrian. And number one, lived to tell

00:06:49.579 --> 00:06:52.980
about it. How about that? Sure. But number two,

00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.959
found out I have a super hard head. Apparently

00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:03.180
what I know it's just shut up. I just Know I've

00:07:03.180 --> 00:07:05.060
been making jokes. I've been making jokes the

00:07:05.060 --> 00:07:07.199
last two weeks about oh, yeah, you know that

00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:09.120
your mother had always said I had a hard head

00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:16.199
ha lol This it's true so yeah, I didn't split

00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:19.639
it open or anything like that got a hell of a

00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:23.680
concussion along with like neck pain back pain

00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:27.649
all that kind of stuff, so uh healing uh definitely

00:07:27.649 --> 00:07:31.310
healing so that's the positive thing uh but just

00:07:31.310 --> 00:07:34.050
aches and pains and things like that might visit

00:07:34.050 --> 00:07:37.029
the old chiropractor sure yeah you know so we'll

00:07:37.029 --> 00:07:41.430
see see how that goes but uh anyway yeah this

00:07:41.430 --> 00:07:46.870
is uh this is seasons in the abyss for our our

00:07:46.870 --> 00:07:49.589
fifth i want to say it's our finale but i'm gonna

00:07:49.589 --> 00:07:53.209
i'm gonna explain in a minute but it is and it

00:07:53.209 --> 00:07:56.829
isn't so this is the end of five seasons here.

00:07:57.069 --> 00:08:00.110
And it's called Seasons in the Abyss, which for

00:08:00.110 --> 00:08:03.089
you Slayer fans know that that was their fifth

00:08:03.089 --> 00:08:06.470
studio album. Whoa! And I thought, hey, how fancy.

00:08:07.189 --> 00:08:11.670
We just have a baller album be the title of our

00:08:11.670 --> 00:08:13.810
finale, not finale. And the reason I say not

00:08:13.810 --> 00:08:16.350
finale is because next week I'm going to be sitting

00:08:16.350 --> 00:08:21.410
in a studio with a phenomenal young musician.

00:08:21.449 --> 00:08:27.509
Her name's Ava Rainwater. And that If not the

00:08:27.509 --> 00:08:31.670
finale, then she's maybe the bridge from season

00:08:31.670 --> 00:08:35.110
five to season six. So that's going to be really

00:08:35.110 --> 00:08:40.490
interesting. She's got some of her own music,

00:08:40.730 --> 00:08:43.230
which is going to be super exciting. And we're

00:08:43.230 --> 00:08:46.889
going to learn a lot more about her. And hopefully,

00:08:47.169 --> 00:08:49.549
at least locally, locally we're here in Valparaiso,

00:08:49.690 --> 00:08:54.200
Indiana. Imagine like the northernmost portions

00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:56.659
of the state of Indiana, not too far from Lake

00:08:56.659 --> 00:08:59.620
Michigan. Some call it the region, some call

00:08:59.620 --> 00:09:02.980
it the South Shore. That's kind of our area.

00:09:03.059 --> 00:09:08.700
That's home, as it were. So region, South Shore,

00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:11.080
you're going to get to know this person this

00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:14.200
summer. You're welcome. And you're welcome for

00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:19.399
that. I've loved... having local musicians featured

00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:24.139
on my shows. Joe Valani is definitely one that

00:09:24.139 --> 00:09:29.840
I've had featured. Ava, Kaia Bryce, who was local

00:09:29.840 --> 00:09:33.159
playing shows. We had her, not only had her on

00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:35.779
the radio show, but we had her on, I did a 24

00:09:35.779 --> 00:09:39.830
hour radio thon. And yeah, I'm freaking crazy.

00:09:40.690 --> 00:09:42.950
But I had plenty of libation to keep me moving.

00:09:43.350 --> 00:09:46.090
So it was fine. It was fine. I was looped as

00:09:46.090 --> 00:09:49.269
hell by the time morning rolled around. But she

00:09:49.269 --> 00:09:51.789
came in and performed on that. And now she's

00:09:51.789 --> 00:09:54.230
in Nashville. And she's on the verge of making

00:09:54.230 --> 00:09:59.049
it. So it's pretty cool. If there's any way we

00:09:59.049 --> 00:10:03.009
can use this platform to help people out, I should

00:10:03.009 --> 00:10:05.740
say. good people, because it's got to be people

00:10:05.740 --> 00:10:08.379
I have a good vibe about. Sure. I'm not going

00:10:08.379 --> 00:10:11.679
to just do it to do it and be one of the Joe

00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:13.860
Rogan's of the world. Right. I don't want to

00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:18.779
do that, but I want to genuinely put good people

00:10:18.779 --> 00:10:22.419
on this side of the microphone, whether they're

00:10:22.419 --> 00:10:24.039
a comedian, whether they're a musician, whether

00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:28.259
they're anything else, and feature them, because

00:10:28.259 --> 00:10:30.980
I think that's kind of cool. Yeah, I agree. Yeah.

00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:34.799
So anyway, Yeah, five seasons, man. What are

00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:37.759
your thoughts? The big five. I mean, it's been

00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:40.639
a happy birthday. Happy birthday. What are you

00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:43.600
thankful for? Yeah. What are you thankful for?

00:10:44.120 --> 00:10:48.860
Oh, yeah. Let me look at the list. It's been

00:10:48.860 --> 00:10:52.259
good. I like looking back on all the seasons

00:10:52.259 --> 00:10:56.039
we've had, it's kind of, it's easy to see how

00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:58.779
far we've progressed and we've kind of, I don't

00:10:58.779 --> 00:11:01.809
want to say settled into. something because,

00:11:02.049 --> 00:11:05.129
you know, we've got revolving segments and we

00:11:05.129 --> 00:11:07.970
try and keep things fresh and new. But we've

00:11:07.970 --> 00:11:11.029
kind of settled into this little rhythm that

00:11:11.029 --> 00:11:14.850
seems to be popping off to be very natural. Yeah.

00:11:14.929 --> 00:11:17.870
How the shows tend to progress. Not that we ever

00:11:17.870 --> 00:11:19.889
had a problem with that. I think even in season

00:11:19.889 --> 00:11:23.490
one of the show, we still had a similar rhythm

00:11:23.490 --> 00:11:28.350
from doing the radio show for so long, radio

00:11:28.350 --> 00:11:33.129
shows for so long. But it was different because,

00:11:33.389 --> 00:11:36.210
first of all, we're not on air. We're live. And

00:11:36.210 --> 00:11:37.970
then I edit it afterwards and get it up and all

00:11:37.970 --> 00:11:43.389
that. And then having a two hour radio show versus

00:11:43.389 --> 00:11:47.370
having an approximately 90 minute podcast. Correct.

00:11:47.950 --> 00:11:49.809
Kind of had to fit some things around. And also

00:11:49.809 --> 00:11:55.129
the copyright problems of, you know. That was

00:11:55.129 --> 00:11:57.250
interesting. Yeah, that was interesting to find

00:11:57.250 --> 00:12:00.700
out sometime in season one. When you're like,

00:12:00.860 --> 00:12:03.039
oh, yeah, I found these royalty free songs and

00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:07.580
then we use them in between segments and Wouldn't

00:12:07.580 --> 00:12:11.220
you know they got copyright claimed? So so let

00:12:11.220 --> 00:12:13.299
me I want you to continue but I just want to

00:12:13.299 --> 00:12:16.299
say What the hell else are people going to use

00:12:16.299 --> 00:12:19.600
royalty -free music for if you can't? Utilize

00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:21.820
them on social media platforms without getting

00:12:21.820 --> 00:12:24.000
tagged and be like, that's mine. You said it's

00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:26.659
royalty -free, dude. This is free music Yeah,

00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:30.200
so I don't know if it has to do with the the

00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:34.480
language of royalty -free law like with attributions

00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:37.220
with permission blah blah blah like if if there's

00:12:37.220 --> 00:12:40.159
just something we needed to do to not have it

00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:43.720
claimed I'm not sure about that but that could

00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:47.340
just be the reason. But I remember in season

00:12:47.340 --> 00:12:50.139
one, one of our first episodes that kind of popped

00:12:50.139 --> 00:12:52.759
off and felt, not only popped off, I think it's

00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:55.559
still one of our most watched videos on at least

00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:58.299
the YouTube side, but it was kind of one of the

00:12:58.299 --> 00:13:00.620
first episodes where I felt like, okay, this

00:13:00.620 --> 00:13:05.200
is good, is the 40 acres and a mule episode in

00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:07.860
season one where we're talking about Kendrick

00:13:07.860 --> 00:13:11.830
Lamar. Halftime show and just music in general.

00:13:11.830 --> 00:13:14.269
I think that's maybe the episode where music

00:13:14.269 --> 00:13:17.309
really started creeping in to Unless that was

00:13:17.309 --> 00:13:21.070
sometime in season two or three That's a good

00:13:21.070 --> 00:13:23.830
question. I that might have been season one I

00:13:23.830 --> 00:13:25.970
mean you can you can obviously do live research

00:13:25.970 --> 00:13:28.990
here, but sure I thought it was season one. It

00:13:28.990 --> 00:13:33.049
was like the fourth or fifth episode and We were

00:13:33.049 --> 00:13:35.009
having a little bit I don't want to say trouble

00:13:35.009 --> 00:13:37.389
because it's just, you know, when you first start,

00:13:38.070 --> 00:13:39.850
your numbers aren't going to look great because

00:13:39.850 --> 00:13:43.289
you're just starting out. But I want to say it

00:13:43.289 --> 00:13:45.389
was like the fourth or fifth one for that year.

00:13:46.090 --> 00:13:47.289
And all of a sudden it was like bam. It was the

00:13:47.289 --> 00:13:49.110
fourth one, yeah. And I was like, oh, they see

00:13:49.110 --> 00:13:51.409
us now. It's just like you had to wait for that

00:13:51.409 --> 00:13:55.190
moment or that right thing. And with Kendrick

00:13:55.190 --> 00:13:59.090
Super Bowl halftime show and that amazing line,

00:13:59.169 --> 00:14:01.980
I was just like. Okay, I think this is definitely

00:14:01.980 --> 00:14:04.100
something that we need to talk about Yeah, it

00:14:04.100 --> 00:14:06.480
was the halftime show alone was excellent. And

00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:08.919
then of course recently we talked about the Bad

00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:12.320
Bunny halftime show Yes as well, and I just wanted

00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:15.159
to bring this point up too which happened in

00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:19.320
season one is We made an episode called no fly

00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:22.460
zone. It was our fifth episode of season one

00:14:22.460 --> 00:14:26.929
and We specifically we kind of chatted On and

00:14:26.929 --> 00:14:28.850
off about it of like okay. We don't really want

00:14:28.850 --> 00:14:31.049
to be a political show You know we we'd like

00:14:31.049 --> 00:14:33.389
to keep things light and everything right and

00:14:33.389 --> 00:14:35.549
the fifth episode was the first one where he

00:14:35.549 --> 00:14:41.210
started talking about politics Right was that

00:14:41.210 --> 00:14:44.090
fifth episode the fifth one and since then I

00:14:44.090 --> 00:14:47.210
know season two was politics heavy Very much

00:14:47.210 --> 00:14:50.350
so season three season four on and off politics

00:14:50.350 --> 00:14:55.250
heavy but It's it's hard not to talk about politics

00:14:55.250 --> 00:14:58.110
when that's the biggest, craziest shit going

00:14:58.110 --> 00:15:02.389
on in the world is mostly caused by our country.

00:15:03.090 --> 00:15:06.409
Correct. Yeah, that's that's fair. And, you know,

00:15:06.549 --> 00:15:08.870
growing up as a kid of the 80s, I have to say

00:15:08.870 --> 00:15:14.769
that despite the heavy conservatism of the time,

00:15:16.090 --> 00:15:17.710
politics was still something. Number one, you

00:15:17.710 --> 00:15:19.950
just didn't talk about it because it was just

00:15:19.950 --> 00:15:21.750
like, oh, yeah, you go and you vote and that

00:15:21.750 --> 00:15:23.899
person's going to do a job. And that's all you

00:15:23.899 --> 00:15:25.779
really thought about it. And were there still

00:15:25.779 --> 00:15:28.059
things in the news that were heavy, Iran, Contra,

00:15:28.100 --> 00:15:29.960
and other things? Yeah, there were those things.

00:15:30.539 --> 00:15:32.980
But for the most part, you didn't have to worry

00:15:32.980 --> 00:15:34.879
about anything. You're like, oh yeah, everybody's

00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:37.279
there just doing their job. And then if your

00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:38.820
neighbor was a Republican or your other neighbor

00:15:38.820 --> 00:15:41.740
was a Democrat or whatever, no one cared. We

00:15:41.740 --> 00:15:43.220
just didn't care. We're just like, we just want

00:15:43.220 --> 00:15:46.019
people to go to work and just do the job. And

00:15:46.019 --> 00:15:47.799
maybe you're gonna do a good job and I like it,

00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:49.960
and maybe you won't. And so then I'll look for

00:15:49.960 --> 00:15:52.500
a new candidate next time. But like we just didn't

00:15:52.500 --> 00:15:55.120
sweat it. It wasn't that serious. But now we're

00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:59.019
in a time where every decision that's being made

00:15:59.019 --> 00:16:02.820
is is is crucial and it's affecting millions

00:16:02.820 --> 00:16:06.940
of people and not in a good way. Right. So it's

00:16:06.940 --> 00:16:09.600
that's why. I mean, that's why we do it. And,

00:16:09.860 --> 00:16:11.620
you know, do we drill down and do we get angry

00:16:11.620 --> 00:16:16.320
sometimes? Yeah, we do. Yeah. But do we try to

00:16:16.320 --> 00:16:20.529
be the steward of Comedic political viewpoint

00:16:20.529 --> 00:16:24.429
we try right because when when the craziest shit

00:16:24.429 --> 00:16:27.230
in the world is going on and you've got Pedophilic

00:16:27.230 --> 00:16:29.889
clowns running your government right you have

00:16:29.889 --> 00:16:33.870
to try a way to to find the comedy in it You

00:16:33.870 --> 00:16:37.269
have got to be yeah it because it is comical

00:16:37.269 --> 00:16:41.070
It's the most absurd shit. This is like. This

00:16:41.070 --> 00:16:44.240
is like something so absurd The recent happenings

00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:46.220
in this country over the last year and change

00:16:46.220 --> 00:16:49.519
are so absurd, people would be like, oh, wow,

00:16:49.700 --> 00:16:51.559
yeah, the onion went kind of far with this bit.

00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.159
No, it's real. It's happening. It's really happening.

00:16:56.179 --> 00:17:02.360
It's happening. I mean, I just... This is not

00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:05.579
a political show. I mean, about... One quarter

00:17:05.579 --> 00:17:08.000
of the show is the opening dialogue is the opening

00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:11.140
dialogue, right? We we talk about how we're doing

00:17:11.140 --> 00:17:14.619
we talk about the weather crazy happenings and

00:17:14.619 --> 00:17:16.500
then we usually have a subject we want to cover

00:17:16.500 --> 00:17:20.500
for the day whether it's toxic masculinity within

00:17:20.500 --> 00:17:24.960
fan bases or correct talk about the holiday coming

00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:29.220
up and Then sometimes it's like okay. This this

00:17:29.220 --> 00:17:31.259
news cycle is fucking crazy. We need to chat

00:17:31.259 --> 00:17:34.250
about what's going on in the White House. Correct.

00:17:34.490 --> 00:17:38.789
Yep. So it's not, I never wanted to describe

00:17:38.789 --> 00:17:43.769
this as a political show when it's an occasionally

00:17:43.769 --> 00:17:47.549
political segment of the show. And I think that's

00:17:47.549 --> 00:17:50.210
fair to say. That, yeah, that's definitely fair

00:17:50.210 --> 00:17:54.470
to say. And, you know, I think another thing

00:17:54.470 --> 00:17:57.990
too, and this is worth mentioning, is that sometimes

00:17:57.990 --> 00:18:03.679
we take on serious situations that aren't very

00:18:03.679 --> 00:18:06.799
political, at least not directly when we talk

00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:09.880
about them. For example, mental health. And I

00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:11.799
think mental health was something we really drilled

00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:14.279
into, especially that first season. Oh, sure.

00:18:14.599 --> 00:18:16.740
But it's something we keep coming back to because

00:18:16.740 --> 00:18:18.980
I just think it's super important, especially

00:18:18.980 --> 00:18:20.880
when all of these other things are going on in

00:18:20.880 --> 00:18:22.940
your world that are just negative, negative,

00:18:23.140 --> 00:18:26.559
negative. It's heavy weights. It's so hard to

00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:28.380
kind of put those blinders on and be like, OK,

00:18:28.380 --> 00:18:29.940
I'm just going to keep moving. I'm just going

00:18:29.940 --> 00:18:33.220
to keep moving forward. But that is a lot easier

00:18:33.220 --> 00:18:36.980
said than done. Sure. It just is because these

00:18:36.980 --> 00:18:40.019
other things in the world just keep just keep

00:18:40.019 --> 00:18:42.200
slugging away at you and you got to keep moving

00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:44.940
forward. And, you know, from that mental health

00:18:44.940 --> 00:18:48.779
perspective and suicide and other things like

00:18:48.779 --> 00:18:53.000
that, it's it's worth talking about. And I I've

00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:55.990
tried to be. is genuine and transparent, especially

00:18:55.990 --> 00:18:59.490
on that subject, as I can, because it's something

00:18:59.490 --> 00:19:03.670
that's affected me a lot over the past five -ish

00:19:03.670 --> 00:19:05.769
years. I want to say, like, after COVID. Yeah.

00:19:05.970 --> 00:19:09.230
Honestly, after COVID. And who knows how much

00:19:09.230 --> 00:19:12.450
post -COVID has affected my mental health as

00:19:12.450 --> 00:19:15.210
well as other people's mental health. Right.

00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:18.539
Just in addition to the world. I just felt like

00:19:18.539 --> 00:19:21.579
that that was such a focal point and it was like

00:19:21.579 --> 00:19:23.660
oh This is where the world changes. You don't

00:19:23.660 --> 00:19:26.059
know it yet, but everything's about to change

00:19:26.059 --> 00:19:30.759
right and sure shit I mean, I just in some ways.

00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:34.990
I don't recognize like what's going on. No, no.

00:19:35.630 --> 00:19:37.869
It just doesn't make sense. Right. And because

00:19:37.869 --> 00:19:40.170
of the lack of mental health care and welfare

00:19:40.170 --> 00:19:43.990
programs in this country, we never got the time

00:19:43.990 --> 00:19:48.250
to think about it, you know? Yeah. And really

00:19:48.250 --> 00:19:50.450
get those thoughts out about like, wow, we really

00:19:50.450 --> 00:19:53.210
just went through a pandemic, a million Americans

00:19:53.210 --> 00:19:55.890
died, you know, tens of millions of people across

00:19:55.890 --> 00:20:01.680
the world died, around 10 million or so. what,

00:20:01.740 --> 00:20:06.359
three months into the shutdown, it was just like,

00:20:06.380 --> 00:20:09.160
oh no, we're opening back up, we gotta keep the

00:20:09.160 --> 00:20:11.259
capitalism machine turning, so everyone just

00:20:11.259 --> 00:20:12.900
go back to work and forget it ever happened.

00:20:14.660 --> 00:20:17.920
Bro. Right. We didn't get time to process the

00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:19.579
trauma of living through a pandemic, and then

00:20:19.579 --> 00:20:21.940
you're just tossing us back in like, oh, go enjoy

00:20:21.940 --> 00:20:23.640
your low wages again, we need you out there.

00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:26.380
That's right. Like, well, cool, buddy. No, I

00:20:26.380 --> 00:20:29.559
agree with that assessment. And I feel like that's...

00:20:29.559 --> 00:20:34.019
I would say the difference between personal politics

00:20:34.019 --> 00:20:37.259
and bipartisan politics, because we do talk about

00:20:37.259 --> 00:20:39.759
both. That's true. And we had a recent episode

00:20:39.759 --> 00:20:41.480
where we talked about the youth of the nation

00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:46.279
and how anxiety and depression rates are skyrocketing

00:20:46.279 --> 00:20:49.420
and drug usage and alcohol usage skyrocketing

00:20:49.420 --> 00:20:53.140
amongst Gen Z 'ers and younger millennials. And

00:20:53.140 --> 00:20:57.400
that's not a bipartisan political show. Correct.

00:20:58.000 --> 00:21:00.079
we're talking personal politics, we're talking

00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:02.660
about human beings, and I think that's an important

00:21:02.660 --> 00:21:06.480
distinction to make too, is of the maybe two

00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:11.799
-fifths of our episodes that are political, half

00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:14.200
of those are, we're talking about personal politics,

00:21:14.420 --> 00:21:16.880
not bipartisan politics. That's right. I think

00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:19.119
that's a fair distinction to make too. Not that

00:21:19.119 --> 00:21:21.779
I'm, not that I have to be defensive about the

00:21:21.779 --> 00:21:25.880
content we make, but... I like making that distinction

00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:30.200
for my own self, just to be like, okay, I'm not

00:21:30.200 --> 00:21:32.700
one of those chodes online just yapping about

00:21:32.700 --> 00:21:38.200
left versus right, red versus blue all day. Right.

00:21:38.579 --> 00:21:44.200
Because that's what they want. Division. They

00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:46.420
want the division and that sort of stuff. And

00:21:46.420 --> 00:21:49.180
look, when we look at things or you put things

00:21:49.180 --> 00:21:51.650
under a microscope, we can look... you know if

00:21:51.650 --> 00:21:53.049
you're on the right or you're on the left and

00:21:53.049 --> 00:21:54.869
you can look at things and you can put things

00:21:54.869 --> 00:21:56.750
under a microscope and if you want you could

00:21:56.750 --> 00:21:58.910
just sit there and be like oh the left oh the

00:21:58.910 --> 00:22:01.049
right and this and that and you can do that if

00:22:01.049 --> 00:22:05.869
you want but ultimately this is this is a an

00:22:05.869 --> 00:22:08.650
issue with humanity this is an issue with how

00:22:08.650 --> 00:22:13.599
we're moving forward as a people right um and

00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:15.900
not just in america it's just it's everywhere

00:22:15.900 --> 00:22:19.000
else where this is taking place in this this

00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:25.880
um sort of authoritarian uh theocracy like it's

00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:28.519
it's this thing is creeping up corporatocracy

00:22:28.519 --> 00:22:32.220
all of it and it's it's very hard for that average

00:22:32.220 --> 00:22:35.230
person to deal with it and as i said Even during

00:22:35.230 --> 00:22:38.210
the 1980s, he didn't have to deal with it as

00:22:38.210 --> 00:22:41.549
much. He was like, oh, okay, so we're not all

00:22:41.549 --> 00:22:44.670
poor anymore. There is still a middle class.

00:22:45.130 --> 00:22:48.150
We still can take a vacation every year. Okay,

00:22:48.250 --> 00:22:51.269
things aren't that terrible. But now here we

00:22:51.269 --> 00:22:55.210
are. Well, and were the seeds planted for what's

00:22:55.210 --> 00:22:58.619
going on now? Maybe, some of it. But here we

00:22:58.619 --> 00:23:01.960
are, and it's not good. Right, it's not good,

00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:04.640
and I look at it just now from a personal perspective,

00:23:04.680 --> 00:23:07.200
because it has affected me personally a great

00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:11.079
deal, especially in my professional life. But

00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:15.400
I look at it more because I'm very empathetic

00:23:15.400 --> 00:23:17.480
towards other people, and I don't know why. Maybe

00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:19.460
I'm a superhero, I don't even know it. Superheroes

00:23:19.460 --> 00:23:23.180
are always sad. But I look at it from just like

00:23:23.180 --> 00:23:25.720
people, and I see people struggling, and I'm

00:23:25.720 --> 00:23:28.240
like this... This doesn't need to happen. Right.

00:23:28.460 --> 00:23:30.279
Like, people can just have a normal life. I don't

00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:31.799
think people are like, oh, I want a Lamborghini

00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:34.539
in the driveway. We don't want that. You know,

00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:37.799
the Elon Musk's of the world, they're the ones

00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:40.680
that have more money than they could ever use

00:23:40.680 --> 00:23:43.079
in 10 lifetimes. Right, in a thousand lifetimes.

00:23:43.079 --> 00:23:46.980
A thousand lifetimes. Meanwhile, it's just like...

00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:49.900
Well, you know, I have this car, and it's kind

00:23:49.900 --> 00:23:52.420
of shitty, and my home's not so great, or I got

00:23:52.420 --> 00:23:54.839
this apartment, and the landlord doesn't give

00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:56.960
a shit. Right, and you have three jobs just to

00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:59.680
make ends meet. Right, you have to. And at that

00:23:59.680 --> 00:24:02.359
point, you're looking at quality of life. And

00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:04.400
people trying to say how great America is, or

00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:06.500
America great again, or whatever that bullshit

00:24:06.500 --> 00:24:09.059
line is. It's not. You know, and you look at

00:24:09.059 --> 00:24:12.160
it, and you're like, for who? Right. For who?

00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:14.779
You know, you got people wearing those red caps

00:24:14.779 --> 00:24:17.210
living in a double -wide. And their car's falling

00:24:17.210 --> 00:24:22.589
apart. And I'm like, do you see what's going

00:24:22.589 --> 00:24:25.589
on here? And that's, you know, so I guess that's

00:24:25.589 --> 00:24:29.869
just a reason why half of our shows so far, give

00:24:29.869 --> 00:24:34.410
or take, have had that glimpse into this political

00:24:34.410 --> 00:24:36.990
culture that's going on right now. Because it's

00:24:36.990 --> 00:24:40.109
everything happening around us. Right. And I've

00:24:40.109 --> 00:24:43.509
always said, look, you know, we do, politically,

00:24:43.829 --> 00:24:46.859
we do slant a certain way. We do. without question.

00:24:47.680 --> 00:24:52.599
But we do try to take a fair look at everything

00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:56.539
as it is. And trust me, you know, when the left

00:24:56.539 --> 00:24:58.839
is being stupid or they're not doing their jobs

00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:01.359
or whatever the case is, I'm gonna lay into them

00:25:01.359 --> 00:25:04.960
too. Right. Because their job is to make our

00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:08.059
lives a little better. They are funded by taxpayer

00:25:08.059 --> 00:25:10.559
dollars. They work for me. They work for you.

00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:12.880
They're supposed to. They're supposed to work

00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:18.400
for us. And they don't. Right. So that's why

00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:23.400
I think on occasion we have that openings that

00:25:23.400 --> 00:25:26.099
we do on various issues. Right. Because I think

00:25:26.099 --> 00:25:28.019
it's worth talking about and it's topical maybe

00:25:28.019 --> 00:25:29.759
especially at that time that we do it. Yeah.

00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:33.559
The politicians work for the rich cunts who own

00:25:33.559 --> 00:25:37.240
all the media who are informing you to fight

00:25:37.240 --> 00:25:41.119
a culture war that is complete nonsense instead

00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:44.460
of actually having solidarity and fighting a

00:25:44.460 --> 00:25:49.440
class war, which is necessary. Yes. Full stop.

00:25:49.859 --> 00:25:52.700
That's it. That's the cycle. Yeah, that's it.

00:25:53.339 --> 00:25:55.660
And, you know, if anything, like I said, it's

00:25:55.660 --> 00:25:58.559
tough because there may be people that like to

00:25:58.559 --> 00:26:02.200
listen to our show, and maybe they're a little

00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:04.599
bit right on the spectrum, and they don't agree

00:26:04.599 --> 00:26:07.740
with us. But you know what? That's okay. That's

00:26:07.740 --> 00:26:10.740
that's part of what is supposed to make this

00:26:10.740 --> 00:26:13.359
country great is that you have different viewpoints

00:26:13.359 --> 00:26:16.359
and you can agree or you can disagree But let

00:26:16.359 --> 00:26:19.240
me just say that's where it should end. That's

00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:21.400
where it should end. There shouldn't be all this

00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:24.079
violence It shouldn't be like, oh, yeah, they're

00:26:24.079 --> 00:26:27.019
they're domestic terrorists and there's no no

00:26:27.019 --> 00:26:30.890
We're not right We just have a different viewpoint

00:26:30.890 --> 00:26:34.609
on things. And if I say, hey, I believe in this,

00:26:34.670 --> 00:26:36.869
and you're like, well, no, I disagree. I think

00:26:36.869 --> 00:26:39.589
it should be this way. That's fine. It can stay

00:26:39.589 --> 00:26:42.009
there. And then it's like, well, OK, we just

00:26:42.009 --> 00:26:45.680
don't agree. And we move on. Or. we can have

00:26:45.680 --> 00:26:48.759
constructive dialogue and be like, oh, that's

00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:51.400
interesting. Why do you think that is that way?

00:26:51.539 --> 00:26:54.099
Right. And then you would try to explain it.

00:26:54.099 --> 00:26:56.720
And I'd be like, oh, here's my perspective. Like

00:26:56.720 --> 00:26:58.700
that is how people should communicate. We've

00:26:58.700 --> 00:27:01.220
also had shows on communication. Right. A communication

00:27:01.220 --> 00:27:03.880
breakdown recently. This is true. And it's just

00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:07.380
it's communication. And back, I can think of

00:27:07.380 --> 00:27:10.640
Reagan and Clinton as two examples. far from

00:27:10.640 --> 00:27:14.880
perfect people, but what they would do is understand

00:27:14.880 --> 00:27:19.140
how things work and realize, hey, to get this

00:27:19.140 --> 00:27:22.880
done, I have to talk to the other side. We have

00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:25.920
to come to some sort of agreement. And like,

00:27:25.940 --> 00:27:28.900
that's why shit got done and things worked for

00:27:28.900 --> 00:27:31.759
the most part. That's not how it's done anymore.

00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:36.339
Right. It's like a dictatorship. One guy at the

00:27:36.339 --> 00:27:41.440
top and all the other little a little insignificant

00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:43.960
peon sitting in that big building called the

00:27:43.960 --> 00:27:46.339
Capitol. The individuals who are supposed to

00:27:46.339 --> 00:27:49.440
provide checks and balances. Don't. Don't. Don't.

00:27:49.500 --> 00:27:52.000
So we need to get back to working how it's supposed

00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:54.819
to work, is what we're supposed to do. I don't

00:27:54.819 --> 00:27:56.940
know if we can get back there. I'm going to be

00:27:56.940 --> 00:28:01.339
completely honest. If this can happen in our

00:28:01.339 --> 00:28:04.420
system, it means the system was not infallible

00:28:04.420 --> 00:28:07.890
in the first place. Correct. And if this can

00:28:07.890 --> 00:28:10.509
happen, it means the system is not good. Nope.

00:28:10.829 --> 00:28:13.210
And must either change or be completely uprooted.

00:28:13.450 --> 00:28:14.990
Yeah, I would agree with that. Fundamentally.

00:28:15.309 --> 00:28:18.789
I would agree with that. But yeah, five seasons

00:28:18.789 --> 00:28:22.529
of this, guys. And as I said, you know, we do

00:28:22.529 --> 00:28:26.029
take hard look at some things sometimes. But

00:28:26.029 --> 00:28:29.910
we also like to talk about things, like we talk

00:28:29.910 --> 00:28:31.650
about mental health, other things like that,

00:28:31.869 --> 00:28:33.869
and try to be constructive about it and kind

00:28:33.869 --> 00:28:36.950
of look at it because we know in our listening

00:28:36.950 --> 00:28:38.970
audience, we know there are people out there

00:28:38.970 --> 00:28:42.730
having a tough time, maybe economically, maybe

00:28:42.730 --> 00:28:45.289
in relationships or their job or various things

00:28:45.289 --> 00:28:47.930
like that. And things are tough. And we want

00:28:47.930 --> 00:28:49.630
to be able to talk about that. We want to be

00:28:49.630 --> 00:28:51.250
able to talk about that with you guys and let

00:28:51.250 --> 00:28:55.049
you know, hey, trust me, we're all going through

00:28:55.049 --> 00:28:58.670
some level of this stuff. Right. Some of us more

00:28:58.670 --> 00:29:02.849
than others. But just to know that we can have

00:29:02.849 --> 00:29:05.880
a constructive conversation about it. and you

00:29:05.880 --> 00:29:11.500
guys can engage with us. Maloney Media on Instagram.

00:29:11.789 --> 00:29:14.690
is one place where you can find us. You can find

00:29:14.690 --> 00:29:17.890
Aidan or my name, Mark. You can find us on the

00:29:17.890 --> 00:29:22.109
various socials. You can leave comments on the

00:29:22.109 --> 00:29:25.390
YouTube side of things. I'm not sure about all

00:29:25.390 --> 00:29:28.509
the podcast platforms if they... I don't know

00:29:28.509 --> 00:29:30.970
if they have... You can leave a review. A review,

00:29:31.250 --> 00:29:32.690
but yeah. I'm not sure if that really counts

00:29:32.690 --> 00:29:33.930
as a comment section. But I think YouTube is

00:29:33.930 --> 00:29:36.450
better for engagement from that side of things.

00:29:37.009 --> 00:29:40.279
But by all means, leave a comment. And if your

00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:42.400
comment is, you guys are douchebags, then hey,

00:29:42.500 --> 00:29:45.099
best of luck to you in your life. Right. That's

00:29:45.099 --> 00:29:47.579
fine. But you know what? Especially in our gaming,

00:29:47.720 --> 00:29:50.480
I do like that in our gaming we do happen to

00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:54.319
have more engagement. But I do love that people

00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:56.119
do that. And they're just like, hey, you guys

00:29:56.119 --> 00:29:59.180
keep going. And I love that. That's super great.

00:29:59.900 --> 00:30:02.900
Or like that one guy. We were doing our gaming

00:30:02.900 --> 00:30:07.230
show. It was GeoGuessr, which is fun, and you

00:30:07.230 --> 00:30:09.710
shall play it. They just kind of drop you in

00:30:09.710 --> 00:30:11.049
different Google Maps. You're supposed to figure

00:30:11.049 --> 00:30:13.089
out where you are. Right, right. It's super fun.

00:30:13.609 --> 00:30:17.410
And so we were at the Denver Broncos Stadium.

00:30:17.470 --> 00:30:19.829
We were dropped there. Now we knew we were dropped

00:30:19.829 --> 00:30:22.029
there, but we're trying to get as close to where

00:30:22.029 --> 00:30:22.789
the pin is as possible. We were trying to get

00:30:22.789 --> 00:30:26.450
a perfect score. Now, Aidan and I were there.

00:30:26.599 --> 00:30:29.940
And so we're going around like, oh, why doesn't

00:30:29.940 --> 00:30:33.220
this make sense? We know we're here. And then

00:30:33.220 --> 00:30:35.700
this other guy is like, oh, no, no, no. You were

00:30:35.700 --> 00:30:37.440
right with your first thought. It's over here.

00:30:37.579 --> 00:30:39.839
And we started overthinking. We were overthinking

00:30:39.839 --> 00:30:42.519
it. But we love that engagement, guys. We love

00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:47.220
it. And can you criticize? Of course. That's

00:30:47.220 --> 00:30:51.559
fine. Can we have discussion? Yes, we can. Can

00:30:51.559 --> 00:30:54.660
you send us DMs? Yes, you can. Will we answer

00:30:54.660 --> 00:30:58.960
your questions? Well, well, well. We'll get to

00:30:58.960 --> 00:31:01.160
that later. Remains to be seen. It remains to

00:31:01.160 --> 00:31:03.700
be seen. Might be a little trick to that one.

00:31:04.700 --> 00:31:08.940
But at any rate, we're five seasons in. I get

00:31:08.940 --> 00:31:12.539
to do this about every week with my son, which

00:31:12.539 --> 00:31:17.119
is amazing. And, you know, who the hell am I?

00:31:17.420 --> 00:31:20.380
But this guy's the talent. Without question this

00:31:20.380 --> 00:31:25.619
guy over here is is something else and I'm just

00:31:25.619 --> 00:31:27.180
I'm privileged to be able to sit here and do

00:31:27.180 --> 00:31:30.000
this every week Just have an absolute blast with

00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:32.960
it. And as we said, you know, we have those openings

00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:34.799
and everything else, but we have the top ten

00:31:34.799 --> 00:31:38.220
list Which God we've been we've been we did this

00:31:38.220 --> 00:31:40.480
when we're on the radio side of things just shy

00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:45.660
of a decade of doing Yeah half of a decade It's

00:31:45.660 --> 00:31:48.000
just it's that segment that won't die because

00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:50.640
people like it So and there's you can make a

00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:53.440
top ten list of anything of anything anything.

00:31:53.619 --> 00:31:58.299
Yes top ten light bulb brands You can anything

00:31:58.299 --> 00:32:01.559
not that we've stooped that low right exactly.

00:32:01.559 --> 00:32:05.119
It's a top ten reasons. We are constipated, right?

00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:08.559
Number one the cheese number one that cheese

00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:11.920
So yeah, I mean, you know, it's just been so

00:32:11.920 --> 00:32:17.759
fun Carpe Diem you Roku. For Roku owners, you

00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:18.339
know what I'm talking about. There's a story

00:32:18.339 --> 00:32:22.019
there. There's a story. But Carpe Diem, you know,

00:32:23.279 --> 00:32:26.819
that was just something that was born out of

00:32:26.819 --> 00:32:29.599
pure engagement and comedy. People interacting,

00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:31.579
yeah. And interacting. And it's just so much

00:32:31.579 --> 00:32:35.539
fun on that end of things. That has been really

00:32:35.539 --> 00:32:37.980
great. We've had so many other segments, some

00:32:37.980 --> 00:32:39.720
that we've had on the shelf for a while. Maybe

00:32:39.720 --> 00:32:42.259
we'll have to have a discussion about bringing

00:32:42.259 --> 00:32:45.220
some of those back. But we've done. There's been

00:32:45.220 --> 00:32:47.779
a lot of crossover, too, from a podcast I used

00:32:47.779 --> 00:32:53.099
to have where, like, Burning Questions kind of

00:32:53.099 --> 00:32:56.039
was similar in a way to Carpe Diem's, but the

00:32:56.039 --> 00:32:57.779
questions were sourced from Reddit. And then

00:32:57.779 --> 00:33:00.420
we have Tier Listing, which we've done a time

00:33:00.420 --> 00:33:04.049
or two on the show, which is super fun. And of

00:33:04.049 --> 00:33:06.210
course, World of Weird News is a classic. That

00:33:06.210 --> 00:33:08.549
is a classic. It's so good. Because you guys

00:33:08.549 --> 00:33:10.670
are weird and we love you for it. Yeah, we've

00:33:10.670 --> 00:33:15.150
had Rotating Fry Guy, Frozen Guy, Reddit Rabbit

00:33:15.150 --> 00:33:18.309
Hole, While You Were Sleeping, Review Preview.

00:33:18.809 --> 00:33:21.109
Yeah. A lot of different segments. A lot of different

00:33:21.109 --> 00:33:25.750
segments. And it's been, God, it's been a ride.

00:33:26.009 --> 00:33:28.970
And I'll have to say this, we're on the radio

00:33:28.970 --> 00:33:31.150
side of things here in Valparaiso, Indiana. That

00:33:31.150 --> 00:33:35.650
was our start. And I have to say that there was

00:33:35.650 --> 00:33:38.309
a process to all of it, where I was a co -host

00:33:38.309 --> 00:33:40.549
and then I became the host and I became the host

00:33:40.549 --> 00:33:43.410
of multiple shows. And then Aidan came on board

00:33:43.410 --> 00:33:45.630
and Aidan was kind of doing his own thing. And

00:33:45.630 --> 00:33:49.769
so like that, it was just like a progression

00:33:49.769 --> 00:33:53.650
along the way. And we realized at some point

00:33:53.650 --> 00:33:57.789
that what we are doing on regular terrestrial

00:33:57.789 --> 00:34:00.049
radio, and I don't want to say radio is dying,

00:34:00.490 --> 00:34:04.319
but It's struggling mightily. Sure. I think is

00:34:04.319 --> 00:34:07.380
a fair comment. Everything is moving over to

00:34:07.380 --> 00:34:11.719
podcasts and Spotify and everything else. The

00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:15.320
accessibility is better and just the control

00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:19.519
of catching up on shows. I mean, that's why so

00:34:19.519 --> 00:34:23.679
many big... I listen to Q101 in the mornings.

00:34:23.679 --> 00:34:27.079
Sure. Yep. And they've got this show, Brian and

00:34:27.079 --> 00:34:30.260
Kenzie. It's it's an excellent show. I really

00:34:30.260 --> 00:34:32.960
like it. They're fun, but they they have their

00:34:32.960 --> 00:34:35.239
own podcast So they take the radio show they

00:34:35.239 --> 00:34:37.880
do and all the bits in between that don't make

00:34:37.880 --> 00:34:40.039
the air They just turn it into a podcast because

00:34:40.039 --> 00:34:43.559
they know that's where they'll hey you miss you

00:34:43.559 --> 00:34:46.019
miss the show Okay, you can catch up there or

00:34:46.019 --> 00:34:48.760
you know, right extra ad revenue or different

00:34:48.760 --> 00:34:52.889
sponsorships Oh for sure that you know you may

00:34:52.889 --> 00:34:55.550
not get on radio. So it's just kind of the way

00:34:55.550 --> 00:34:59.550
that the content train is moving. Oh, for sure.

00:34:59.769 --> 00:35:06.389
Yeah, 100%. And yeah, so that's been amazing.

00:35:07.389 --> 00:35:10.070
Making that move and being here and just that

00:35:10.070 --> 00:35:11.949
one day just sitting down at a table and being

00:35:11.949 --> 00:35:15.110
like... I want to make the Mark Mo Show a podcast.

00:35:15.469 --> 00:35:17.510
Yeah. And we literally, it was hilarious because

00:35:17.510 --> 00:35:19.889
I remember we sat at a boardroom table and we

00:35:19.889 --> 00:35:21.610
were laying it out and we were looking at different

00:35:21.610 --> 00:35:24.329
segments. We're like, okay, about how many minutes

00:35:24.329 --> 00:35:26.170
do we need for that? Right. How many minutes

00:35:26.170 --> 00:35:28.289
do we need for this? And we're breaking all of

00:35:28.289 --> 00:35:30.789
this down, knowing we have to be under two hours.

00:35:31.269 --> 00:35:32.909
We're like breaking it down and breaking it down

00:35:32.909 --> 00:35:34.909
and breaking it down. It was like an hour and

00:35:34.909 --> 00:35:37.369
54 minutes or something. And I just started laughing.

00:35:37.489 --> 00:35:40.409
I'm like, yeah, that's how tuned in we are. I'm

00:35:40.409 --> 00:35:42.889
like, we are absolutely tuned into this. And

00:35:42.889 --> 00:35:45.349
it reigns true. Even when our shows run long,

00:35:46.030 --> 00:35:49.769
we will place the intermediary music between

00:35:49.769 --> 00:35:51.449
segments. It'll come out. It'll be like, oh yeah,

00:35:51.469 --> 00:35:55.550
it was an hour 57. And when the shows run short

00:35:55.550 --> 00:35:58.210
or we're a little more succinct in the opening

00:35:58.210 --> 00:36:02.010
dialogue, it'll be like the 90 minutes we originally

00:36:02.010 --> 00:36:06.190
shopped for, like an hour 45. Yeah, exactly.

00:36:06.269 --> 00:36:09.690
So it is pretty tuned in. It is tuned in. And

00:36:09.690 --> 00:36:12.920
we hope you guys have fun. And if you get triggered

00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:15.440
by some political talk and stuff like that, just

00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:19.619
move 20 minutes ahead and we've got another hour

00:36:19.619 --> 00:36:24.380
and 20 of comedy and silliness and just good

00:36:24.380 --> 00:36:27.079
times. All the segments are broken down. You

00:36:27.079 --> 00:36:29.440
can use your podcast app and just skip to the

00:36:29.440 --> 00:36:31.780
segment you want to hear. Yeah, exactly. We do

00:36:31.780 --> 00:36:34.900
that on the backend for your listening pleasure.

00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.159
Yeah, no doubt, no doubt. You know, we're five

00:36:38.159 --> 00:36:42.719
in. What's next? That's a great question. I think

00:36:42.719 --> 00:36:52.760
six. Yeah. Jesus God. And after that? Six, seven.

00:36:53.260 --> 00:36:58.260
Six, seven. I'm going away now. I lured you into

00:36:58.260 --> 00:37:01.519
that one. That was terrible. I had a van with

00:37:01.519 --> 00:37:03.659
candy on the side and he just went right for

00:37:03.659 --> 00:37:09.070
it. Ooh, candy. Ooh, candy. Huh, well, number

00:37:09.070 --> 00:37:11.730
one, well, I guess most important, thanks to

00:37:11.730 --> 00:37:14.789
you guys, because we do have listeners. The metrics

00:37:14.789 --> 00:37:18.289
say that up to 25 or 26 countries, maybe more

00:37:18.289 --> 00:37:20.989
than that now, I don't know, have tuned in a

00:37:20.989 --> 00:37:23.449
time or two, and we have people that are, who

00:37:23.449 --> 00:37:25.269
did we have last week? You had said we had a

00:37:25.269 --> 00:37:28.849
new country. We had listeners in India and UK,

00:37:29.650 --> 00:37:31.789
and in previous seasons we've had people pop

00:37:31.789 --> 00:37:36.289
in from Curaçao and Malaysia and Ireland. Russia

00:37:36.289 --> 00:37:39.230
for a while, but they shut us down. Yeah. Oh,

00:37:39.250 --> 00:37:41.349
well. Oh, well. It was nice while we were here.

00:37:41.590 --> 00:37:43.769
Yeah. Well, hey, maybe, you know, maybe we're

00:37:43.769 --> 00:37:45.530
still the start of the revolution. Who knows?

00:37:45.710 --> 00:37:48.929
God bless. Hopefully. God, let's hope. But yeah,

00:37:48.949 --> 00:37:51.889
I mean, I just, I just love the fact that there

00:37:51.889 --> 00:37:55.570
is, there are people somewhere in this globe

00:37:55.570 --> 00:37:58.210
that found us. Right. And listened and were like,

00:37:58.269 --> 00:38:01.070
oh, that's funny. You know, and we just appreciate

00:38:01.070 --> 00:38:04.900
that. We had a DM one time. from a guy in the

00:38:04.900 --> 00:38:08.119
Philippines. He's a military guy. And just found

00:38:08.119 --> 00:38:10.340
the show and thought it was funny. Said, thanks

00:38:10.340 --> 00:38:12.460
a lot. Made us think of home. That's pretty cool.

00:38:12.460 --> 00:38:14.780
That meant so much. Yeah. I'm like, that's the

00:38:14.780 --> 00:38:17.039
point. I mean, that's what we're trying to do.

00:38:18.159 --> 00:38:19.920
You know, sometimes a little serious, sometimes

00:38:19.920 --> 00:38:22.119
funny and silly and just everything in between.

00:38:23.500 --> 00:38:26.599
Life. Yeah. That's kind of what this is all about.

00:38:28.289 --> 00:38:30.670

things that we'll do moving forward. And just,

time to time, just switch things up because that

00:39:19.710 --> 00:39:22.469
keeps it fresh, it keeps it fun. And that's what

00:39:22.469 --> 00:39:24.369
we're gonna do. And once again, engagement. So

00:39:24.369 --> 00:39:28.730

you guys did this. Okay. Right. I mean, we are

00:39:34.309 --> 00:39:36.570

00:39:36.570 --> 00:39:40.019
the tambourine little cymbals. Yeah. Ting, ting,

00:39:40.039 --> 00:39:42.380
ting. Dance for me, monkey. OK. Yeah, no problem.

00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:44.340
I mean, we're pretty easy that way. We'll bust

00:39:44.340 --> 00:39:47.079
some moves. Yeah. Oh, no doubt. I will shake

00:39:47.079 --> 00:39:50.360
this ass. I will. It brings all the girls to

00:39:50.360 --> 00:39:52.099
the yard. Yeah, that's what they say. So I've

00:39:52.099 --> 00:39:54.079
been told. Yeah. So I've been told. So the people

00:39:54.079 --> 00:39:57.880
tell me. Oh, god. We need to be put away. I need

00:39:57.880 --> 00:40:00.920
to be put down. Yeah, just put me down. Old Yeller

00:40:00.920 --> 00:40:04.420
style. Anyway, we're going to take a little break,

00:40:04.420 --> 00:40:06.380
and we're going to come back with a little Carpe

00:40:06.380 --> 00:40:17.409
Diem for you. All right, we are back, everybody,

00:40:17.429 --> 00:40:22.050
and it is time for Carpe Diem. That is our segment

00:40:22.050 --> 00:40:25.989
where you send us some messages and we read them

00:40:25.989 --> 00:40:28.349
on the air. And if they are in the form of a

00:40:28.349 --> 00:40:30.949
question, you just might be playing Jeopardy.

00:40:32.929 --> 00:40:35.210
But seriously, I thought if they were in the

00:40:35.210 --> 00:40:38.469
form of an answer. Because then you get the answer

00:40:38.469 --> 00:40:40.349
and then you have to ask Trebek the question

00:40:40.349 --> 00:40:45.170
rest his soul. Oh Well, not to not to poke a

00:40:45.170 --> 00:40:49.429
hole in your In your segment intro, but I'm pretty

00:40:49.429 --> 00:40:51.429
sure Jeopardy. You didn't poke a hole you sank

00:40:51.429 --> 00:40:55.010
my battleship Jeopardy gives you the answer what

00:40:55.010 --> 00:40:59.530
you did Yeah, they well you get the I god damn

00:40:59.530 --> 00:41:02.389
it you get that right Like they give you the

00:41:02.389 --> 00:41:05.130
answer like oh, this is this is the boat that

00:41:05.130 --> 00:41:07.750
had all of its things replaced and Philosophers

00:41:07.750 --> 00:41:09.789
always ask if it's the same boat and then you

00:41:09.789 --> 00:41:17.070
ask is that the ship of Theseus? Right Okay,

00:41:17.150 --> 00:41:18.949
because you answer with a question you answer

00:41:18.949 --> 00:41:20.809
that you answer the answer with a question Why

00:41:20.809 --> 00:41:22.969
do they have to be so difficult? Right because

00:41:22.969 --> 00:41:24.869
you can't just say the ship of Theseus because

00:41:24.869 --> 00:41:28.690
you didn't ask the question What is mm -hmm who

00:41:28.690 --> 00:41:33.349
is exactly? Whatever. Anyway, Carpe Diem's is

00:41:33.349 --> 00:41:37.250
not that. You give us a question, and we may,

00:41:37.510 --> 00:41:41.789
can, could answer it. You sank my battleship.

00:41:43.650 --> 00:41:46.170
Just at the bottom of the ocean, man. It's because

00:41:46.170 --> 00:41:48.449
the secret is you put the tiny patrol boat on

00:41:48.449 --> 00:41:51.650
like A1 and A2, and no one guesses those. And

00:41:51.650 --> 00:41:54.510
no one guesses those, right? Well, low -key I'm

00:41:54.510 --> 00:41:57.550
gonna tell you exactly what I do, because I don't

00:41:57.550 --> 00:41:59.710
play the game anymore, so I will share my strategic...

00:42:00.690 --> 00:42:03.969
Bit here on battleship. I group all my ships

00:42:03.969 --> 00:42:06.809
together in a corner Yeah, all of them just group

00:42:06.809 --> 00:42:09.010
them like they're sitting there having a powwow

00:42:09.010 --> 00:42:11.389
Boop all there and then people are guessing all

00:42:11.389 --> 00:42:13.869
over the board and like miss miss miss miss miss

00:42:13.869 --> 00:42:16.250
miss now even if they come down to a certain

00:42:16.250 --> 00:42:19.849
section and They're like hit chances are they're

00:42:19.849 --> 00:42:21.449
gonna hit one boat Then they're going to hit

00:42:21.449 --> 00:42:22.909
a different boat. And then they're going to hit

00:42:22.909 --> 00:42:24.730
a different boat. They're going to be like, Jesus

00:42:24.730 --> 00:42:27.090
Christ, I've hit this thing four times. They

00:42:27.090 --> 00:42:29.269
didn't sink his battleship yet? What the hell?

00:42:29.409 --> 00:42:31.449
Yeah, what the hell? It's shaped like a cube.

00:42:31.530 --> 00:42:36.110
What is going on? Yeah, so that's my s - I do

00:42:36.110 --> 00:42:38.130
the same thing, I'll group them all in one of

00:42:38.130 --> 00:42:40.469
the corners, but I do take the tiny patrol boat,

00:42:40.530 --> 00:42:42.710
the two -hitter, and I'll hide it somewhere else.

00:42:43.170 --> 00:42:45.070
So if they find the corner, they're like, oh,

00:42:45.070 --> 00:42:46.750
I see what you did, you put them all in the corner,

00:42:46.929 --> 00:42:48.929
they never get the patrol boat. Right. Because

00:42:48.929 --> 00:42:51.889
that's on like H8, you know? Yeah, you just put

00:42:51.889 --> 00:42:54.590
it on the opposite side. Yeah, that's a good

00:42:54.590 --> 00:42:58.010
strategy too, for sure. Anyway. Anywho, oh yeah,

00:42:58.130 --> 00:43:02.030
Carp IDM's. God damn it. Okay. Did you guys tune

00:43:02.030 --> 00:43:05.139
in for Battleship Tips? Yeah, I think that's

00:43:05.139 --> 00:43:06.739
what they really were looking for. Yeah, question

00:43:06.739 --> 00:43:09.320
number one. How do I win a battleship? Right,

00:43:09.320 --> 00:43:15.099
exactly. So anyway, here we go. I have some DMs

00:43:15.099 --> 00:43:18.679
from you beautiful people. So let's start out

00:43:18.679 --> 00:43:23.119
with Jayla Cakesy. Jayla Cakesy? Jayla Cakesy.

00:43:23.300 --> 00:43:26.280
Great name. Her comment, moving to Indiana was

00:43:26.280 --> 00:43:28.480
a terrible decision. Like, why did I do that?

00:43:29.420 --> 00:43:32.010
Hey man, depends where you moved from. If you

00:43:32.010 --> 00:43:34.190
moved from Chicago, you did it because it's cheaper

00:43:34.190 --> 00:43:36.630
over here. It's money. It's money. If you moved

00:43:36.630 --> 00:43:40.309
from anywhere else, I don't know why you would

00:43:40.309 --> 00:43:42.630
do that to yourself. I question your logic. I

00:43:42.630 --> 00:43:45.750
question your being. Yeah. Aside from the Chicagoland

00:43:45.750 --> 00:43:51.389
part of Indiana, Indiana stands as a task, right,

00:43:51.590 --> 00:43:53.670
for most people? Sure. It's just a place you

00:43:53.670 --> 00:43:57.130
go through to get to where you need to be. You

00:43:57.130 --> 00:44:00.409
drive through Indiana to get to Chicago. You

00:44:00.409 --> 00:44:03.409
drive through Indiana to get to Cincinnati, you

00:44:03.409 --> 00:44:08.050
know That's right. So I don't know J J J J cakes.

00:44:08.530 --> 00:44:11.469
Yeah, JC JC cakes. What is the word their name?

00:44:11.530 --> 00:44:15.130
Jayla? Casey? That's right. Yeah, the next one

00:44:15.130 --> 00:44:19.699
is from Julia princess There's a lot of E's and

00:44:19.699 --> 00:44:22.179
S's. A lot of E's and S's, okay. What is it called

00:44:22.179 --> 00:44:24.539
when you're proud to be from Chicago but embarrassed

00:44:24.539 --> 00:44:29.940
to be from America? Oh, a Chicagoan. Just a Chicagoan.

00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:33.460
Yeah. Yeah, that's why in so many dystopian novels,

00:44:33.699 --> 00:44:36.179
like Chicago is like always left standing. Right.

00:44:36.199 --> 00:44:39.619
Because they just know that even though Chicagoans

00:44:39.619 --> 00:44:43.800
have that Midwestern folksy vibe a little bit,

00:44:44.420 --> 00:44:48.019
we're also hard as fuck. Yeah. And we'll be like,

00:44:48.039 --> 00:44:51.289
no. We're hardened by the winters. Oh, yeah,

00:44:51.289 --> 00:44:53.130
I think so. I think the winter has a lot to do

00:44:53.130 --> 00:44:55.309
with it. I think our blue collar background has

00:44:55.309 --> 00:44:59.530
a lot to do with it. And yeah, we don't care.

00:44:59.889 --> 00:45:03.590
Yeah, Chicagoan by heart, American only by law.

00:45:05.070 --> 00:45:13.949
Well put. Well put. The next one is from Sarah

00:45:13.949 --> 00:45:18.639
Margaret Eats. OK. And hers is, what's the most

00:45:18.639 --> 00:45:22.639
underrated fast food chain? Ooh, underrated fast

00:45:22.639 --> 00:45:31.179
food chain. Yeah. Good question. I will say,

00:45:31.179 --> 00:45:34.039
I'll say Culver's. I'll say Culver's, and Culver's

00:45:34.039 --> 00:45:36.820
is a Midwest chain. So you'll find them - Largely,

00:45:36.900 --> 00:45:41.380
yeah. Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana.

00:45:41.820 --> 00:45:43.860
Mostly in the Midwest, they're fairly contained.

00:45:45.309 --> 00:45:47.230
Highly underrated though. I think the food quality

00:45:47.230 --> 00:45:50.250
is excellent. I think the burgers are great I've

00:45:50.250 --> 00:45:53.690
never had bad service in a Culver's, you know,

00:45:54.110 --> 00:45:57.989
yeah all the employees are just at the very worst

00:45:57.989 --> 00:46:01.530
content Yes, you know, whereas if you go into

00:46:01.530 --> 00:46:04.510
a McDonald's or God forbid a Burger King Everyone

00:46:04.510 --> 00:46:07.010
looks like I want to kill themselves for sure,

00:46:07.210 --> 00:46:10.150
you know, yeah So I think Culver's has got to

00:46:10.150 --> 00:46:13.929
be that that most underrated one because they're

00:46:13.960 --> 00:46:16.000
In my opinion, I think they're just excellent.

00:46:16.340 --> 00:46:18.579
Yeah. And the fact that they've stayed contained

00:46:18.579 --> 00:46:22.360
in the Midwest is kind of baffling to me. I'd

00:46:22.360 --> 00:46:25.920
rank the burger above Wendy's. I'd probably rank

00:46:25.920 --> 00:46:28.460
that one of the best fast food burgers. Yeah.

00:46:28.760 --> 00:46:30.599
Honestly. In my head, I'm trying to think of

00:46:30.599 --> 00:46:34.039
what else I would put above it. I can't think

00:46:34.039 --> 00:46:36.960
of anything off the top of my head. Maybe five

00:46:36.960 --> 00:46:38.900
guys, but you're going to spend twice as much

00:46:38.900 --> 00:46:41.519
at five guys than Culver's. That's true. That's

00:46:41.519 --> 00:46:46.940
a good point. God, I don't know. Underrated.

00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:50.039
The Culver's was a good one. Yeah. I would...

00:46:50.039 --> 00:46:53.480
You could argue DQ for the Chicken Sammies. You

00:46:53.480 --> 00:46:56.019
could. And Chicky Tendies. Yeah, those are good

00:46:56.019 --> 00:46:58.260
with that white gravy. The Dairy Queen burgers

00:46:58.260 --> 00:47:00.599
are not very good, though. No, they're not. They

00:47:00.599 --> 00:47:04.320
put that weird artificial smoke -flavoring shit

00:47:04.320 --> 00:47:06.300
that Burger King uses in there. I'm like, why

00:47:06.300 --> 00:47:08.800
just make a good burger, dude? It's just beef.

00:47:08.860 --> 00:47:11.320
You know, I'm gonna go out on a limb, and there's...

00:47:11.369 --> 00:47:14.349
There's not many of these left and I don't know

00:47:14.349 --> 00:47:16.489
if underrated is a is a right term because I

00:47:16.489 --> 00:47:18.849
think one of these actually does make a lot of

00:47:18.849 --> 00:47:21.670
money so Maybe that's not the right way. But

00:47:21.670 --> 00:47:24.630
like I was thinking hearties. Oh the hearties

00:47:24.630 --> 00:47:27.530
Yeah, because like you get it and it's like there's

00:47:27.530 --> 00:47:30.210
rarely people there But like you get the food

00:47:30.210 --> 00:47:31.909
and then you're like, damn, this is really good.

00:47:32.050 --> 00:47:35.630
Why there are no people there. Yeah So I would

00:47:35.630 --> 00:47:39.920
probably put hearties up there I would, oh god,

00:47:40.000 --> 00:47:42.840
the other one just left my head. Checkers Rally's

00:47:42.840 --> 00:47:44.699
is always good. That's, thank you. That's the

00:47:44.699 --> 00:47:47.760
one that just left my head. Yeah, and those clothes

00:47:47.760 --> 00:47:49.980
and stuff, but those fries are great. The fries

00:47:49.980 --> 00:47:53.300
are great. The good fries, and like that spicy

00:47:53.300 --> 00:47:56.440
chicken sandwich is really good. So yeah, like

00:47:56.440 --> 00:47:59.719
that's some good stuff too. Harbys and Checkers

00:47:59.719 --> 00:48:03.349
just have the best fries. Yeah. Yeah. And the

00:48:03.349 --> 00:48:05.090
only one I'm going to bring up, and I don't think

00:48:05.090 --> 00:48:07.829
it's underrated as much as that it's just growing.

00:48:08.090 --> 00:48:10.570
It's just growing now. Yeah. And we used to hit

00:48:10.570 --> 00:48:12.550
it when we would take road trips down south because

00:48:12.550 --> 00:48:14.590
that's where they were from. But now it's expanded.

00:48:15.110 --> 00:48:18.949
Raising Canes. Oh, yeah. And they don't have

00:48:18.949 --> 00:48:21.190
a vast menu. They do chicken. They do chicken.

00:48:21.190 --> 00:48:22.530
That's what they do. Yeah. They're not trying

00:48:22.530 --> 00:48:25.550
to be anything else. And their chicken fingers

00:48:25.550 --> 00:48:27.170
are phenomenal. They give you that big chunk

00:48:27.170 --> 00:48:29.510
of Texas toast with it. And whatever that sauce

00:48:29.510 --> 00:48:32.480
is that they make. Ugh. Pretty crazy. So good.

00:48:33.019 --> 00:48:35.139
So yeah, maybe I'd say those. Yeah, that's fair

00:48:35.139 --> 00:48:38.260
to say. Yeah. Let's see what else we got here.

00:48:38.699 --> 00:48:44.119
This is from Sharon Renee Best. Announcement.

00:48:44.340 --> 00:48:47.219
We no longer want him impeached. We want him

00:48:47.219 --> 00:48:50.000
arrested. Thank you for your attention to this

00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:52.320
matter. I love how you can tell who they're talking

00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:54.179
about. You don't even need to name them. I agree.

00:48:54.559 --> 00:48:58.539
Yeah. I agree. I mean, if you're a pedophile,

00:48:58.539 --> 00:49:01.550
you belong in jail. or under the ground, allegedly.

00:49:01.829 --> 00:49:03.909
People say. People say. That's what the people

00:49:03.909 --> 00:49:06.389
tell me. When you abuse a 13 -year -old girl

00:49:06.389 --> 00:49:09.210
and punch her in the face, it's like, yeah, you

00:49:09.210 --> 00:49:11.369
need to go away. Yeah. Forever. Yeah. You need

00:49:11.369 --> 00:49:13.769
to be buried under the prison. Right. Yeah, I

00:49:13.769 --> 00:49:16.849
agree with that. My last one is from our friend

00:49:16.849 --> 00:49:21.889
at stonerstanley420. Alan and Momo are in the

00:49:21.889 --> 00:49:27.210
house. I mean, I guessing. Left the dollar place.

00:49:27.909 --> 00:49:34.090
Walking sucks, I will smoke now. Oh, man. I love

00:49:34.090 --> 00:49:36.530
his sentences being so succinct. They really

00:49:36.530 --> 00:49:38.510
are. It's just like, get the message across.

00:49:38.570 --> 00:49:41.809
This is what I'm doing. Just him trying to stay

00:49:41.809 --> 00:49:44.590
on point sometimes is hilarious. Well, you're

00:49:44.590 --> 00:49:46.250
right. We're in the house. We're in the... We

00:49:46.250 --> 00:49:48.670
are in the house. We're in the A &M Studios room

00:49:48.670 --> 00:49:52.730
of the house, the aforementioned house. Glad

00:49:52.730 --> 00:49:54.429
he found his way out of the dollar place. I was

00:49:54.429 --> 00:49:57.269
starting to think he would be forever lost. Right.

00:49:57.530 --> 00:50:00.289
I'm glad wherever he's walking. He's got service

00:50:00.289 --> 00:50:03.510
to check in still correct kind of promising that

00:50:03.510 --> 00:50:07.469
is promising Yeah, that's it for me. So that's

00:50:07.469 --> 00:50:09.090
my carpet EMS. What do you got? I got some here.

00:50:09.090 --> 00:50:12.489
I got one from drippy Gunther Yeah, what's a

00:50:12.489 --> 00:50:18.190
big lie that people still tend to believe? Oh

00:50:18.190 --> 00:50:20.929
Wow that Donald Trump wants to make America great

00:50:22.600 --> 00:50:26.480
sorry that's sorry not sorry yeah the first one

00:50:26.480 --> 00:50:30.179
that came to my mind especially in this dogshit

00:50:30.179 --> 00:50:33.840
excuse of capitalism is that hard work will get

00:50:33.840 --> 00:50:37.900
you anywhere it does not it just doesn't doesn't

00:50:37.900 --> 00:50:41.820
it doesn't it's you were either born rich you

00:50:41.820 --> 00:50:46.579
had rich friends or you got lucky a lot of times

00:50:46.579 --> 00:50:51.389
in a row yeah that's it That's the only way you

00:50:51.389 --> 00:50:55.849
succeed in this corporate oligarchy that we have.

00:50:56.230 --> 00:50:58.449
Hard work does not get you anywhere because people

00:50:58.449 --> 00:51:03.130
who are working at the Dollar Tree and then midnight

00:51:03.130 --> 00:51:07.150
at the McDonald's are working their asses off

00:51:07.150 --> 00:51:09.090
and barely making ends meet. So hard work does

00:51:09.090 --> 00:51:12.389
not get you anywhere. And it's just the whole

00:51:12.389 --> 00:51:13.989
class solidarity thing. We were just talking

00:51:13.989 --> 00:51:17.690
about people. That's the big lie. That is a big

00:51:17.690 --> 00:51:22.510
lie. I got a DM here from, hmm, quite. Oh, no.

00:51:23.130 --> 00:51:25.570
What do some people do in public that really

00:51:25.570 --> 00:51:30.989
annoys you? I will say talking loudly on their

00:51:30.989 --> 00:51:32.809
cell phone. That's the first thing that came

00:51:32.809 --> 00:51:36.429
to my mind, too. And not so much just out in

00:51:36.429 --> 00:51:38.670
the open. If it's just out in the open, maybe

00:51:38.670 --> 00:51:41.369
they're 50 yards from me. That's not going to

00:51:41.369 --> 00:51:44.010
bug me so much. But it's like when you're...

00:51:43.949 --> 00:51:46.510
in the coffee shop and it's kind of crowded and

00:51:46.510 --> 00:51:48.250
whatever and the dude's on the phone right in

00:51:48.250 --> 00:51:50.530
front of you and he's about to get in line and

00:51:50.530 --> 00:51:52.329
have to pick the coffee that he wants which he

00:51:52.329 --> 00:51:54.469
hasn't done yet because he's on the phone right

00:51:54.469 --> 00:51:57.170
talking to his proctologist about his nasty asshole

00:51:57.170 --> 00:51:59.130
and he's sitting there and he's talking loudly

00:51:59.130 --> 00:52:01.869
and you're just sitting there going no no guy

00:52:01.869 --> 00:52:05.150
no right this is not how we communicate that

00:52:05.150 --> 00:52:07.409
conversation couldn't wait five minutes until

00:52:07.409 --> 00:52:12.190
you get your super sugar bomb latte thing right

00:52:12.190 --> 00:52:15.940
come on man yeah Or especially, and especially,

00:52:16.719 --> 00:52:19.679
the people who do speakerphone in public. Like,

00:52:19.820 --> 00:52:22.860
speakerphone on a train, or in the fucking DMV.

00:52:23.039 --> 00:52:27.260
It's like, dude, no. Yeah, no way. You're irritating

00:52:27.260 --> 00:52:30.159
and bothering the people around you. You're oversharing

00:52:30.159 --> 00:52:32.880
whatever you guys are talking about. The person

00:52:32.880 --> 00:52:34.760
on the other line probably has an expectation

00:52:34.760 --> 00:52:37.139
of privacy that this is not being aired throughout

00:52:37.139 --> 00:52:43.449
the DMV lobby. It's just so unkind. and just

00:52:43.449 --> 00:52:46.750
reckless behavior in public. I have another one

00:52:46.750 --> 00:52:49.630
too. And the other one that I have is for when

00:52:49.630 --> 00:52:53.090
you do nice things for people. Just nothing out

00:52:53.090 --> 00:52:56.710
of like the ordinary or nothing that is very

00:52:56.710 --> 00:53:00.570
like taxing on you to do. We're talking things

00:53:00.570 --> 00:53:02.929
as simple as like holding a door for someone

00:53:02.929 --> 00:53:05.809
or like getting to a stop sign and waving someone

00:53:05.809 --> 00:53:08.550
on. Be like, yeah, come on in. And nobody waves.

00:53:09.010 --> 00:53:12.010
Nobody waves anymore. It's like no one gives

00:53:12.010 --> 00:53:14.289
tuition. So I'm to the point now where I'm just

00:53:14.289 --> 00:53:16.789
like, nope, mm -mm, no more. I'm gonna go. And

00:53:16.789 --> 00:53:18.030
then they can give me dirty looks and I'll be

00:53:18.030 --> 00:53:19.989
like, nope, you weren't gonna wave. Right. You

00:53:19.989 --> 00:53:22.250
weren't gonna wave, so peace out. Peace out,

00:53:22.369 --> 00:53:24.110
Girl Scout. Yeah, at some point it leaves you

00:53:24.110 --> 00:53:26.590
jaded. It really does, man. Like the people you

00:53:26.590 --> 00:53:29.409
hold the door for and like, it's not an obligation

00:53:29.409 --> 00:53:31.969
that I hold this door open. The same way it's

00:53:31.969 --> 00:53:34.650
not an obligation that you say thanks. Correct.

00:53:35.010 --> 00:53:38.329
But I still did it. Correct. So, whether or not

00:53:38.329 --> 00:53:40.650
you say thank you, I still know in my heart and

00:53:40.650 --> 00:53:43.610
soul, I did something cool today. You know, I

00:53:43.610 --> 00:53:47.429
held a door open, or, you know, I let someone

00:53:47.429 --> 00:53:49.210
into traffic where they would have been fucked

00:53:49.210 --> 00:53:53.730
off, else, like, in any other situation. But,

00:53:53.869 --> 00:53:57.010
yeah, it's just like, I don't know, it's so simple.

00:53:57.429 --> 00:53:59.909
To just like, to give a wave, or, oh, thanks,

00:54:00.030 --> 00:54:03.409
man. Like, it's, I don't know. It's low -hanging

00:54:03.409 --> 00:54:06.349
fruit. It's easy stuff. It's not constant. I've

00:54:06.349 --> 00:54:10.349
got like a 50 -50 rate of like people being kind

00:54:10.349 --> 00:54:13.690
or people just fully ignoring like tiny little

00:54:13.690 --> 00:54:16.289
gestures like that. And I'm not doing the gesture

00:54:16.289 --> 00:54:18.929
to get a thank you. I'm doing it because I would

00:54:18.929 --> 00:54:21.150
hope someone else would do that for me. Correct.

00:54:21.550 --> 00:54:24.210
You know. But I do have a different experience,

00:54:24.250 --> 00:54:27.230
especially with the driving ones, of driving

00:54:27.230 --> 00:54:30.690
big semi trucks. Because if I have to make a

00:54:30.690 --> 00:54:34.980
wide right turn, You know it's it's you can't

00:54:34.980 --> 00:54:37.539
get on the inside of me get right you can't you

00:54:37.539 --> 00:54:40.260
can't be on the inside of me sometimes especially

00:54:40.260 --> 00:54:43.119
if I'm in a city like I was just Especially older

00:54:43.119 --> 00:54:46.420
cities with narrow roads. I literally might have

00:54:46.420 --> 00:54:50.679
to make a right turn from the oncoming left lane

00:54:50.679 --> 00:54:54.199
curve into the Next oncoming left lane. Just

00:54:54.199 --> 00:54:56.440
to get into the right lane without hitting a

00:54:56.440 --> 00:54:59.119
curb or a light pole. Right. And that takes some

00:54:59.119 --> 00:55:02.619
awareness of the drivers around me and some kindness

00:55:02.619 --> 00:55:05.360
of the drivers to leave me room. Right. So like

00:55:05.360 --> 00:55:07.300
if I'm the car on that one oncoming lane and

00:55:07.300 --> 00:55:08.980
I see you trying to make that turn, I look behind

00:55:08.980 --> 00:55:10.519
me, there's nobody behind me, I go, oh shit,

00:55:10.679 --> 00:55:12.440
yeah, let me back up, brother. Right. You know,

00:55:12.440 --> 00:55:14.119
and I'll move back 20 feet, give you that room

00:55:14.119 --> 00:55:17.239
to get your truck on the right side of the road.

00:55:17.539 --> 00:55:19.420
Right. And then you give that person a wave.

00:55:19.880 --> 00:55:22.440
Thanks, dude. Oh yeah, for sure. Yeah. Oh yeah,

00:55:22.599 --> 00:55:25.420
there's no doubt. I love, especially truckers,

00:55:25.920 --> 00:55:27.460
I love it when you're going down the highway

00:55:27.460 --> 00:55:30.119
and they're going the opposite way and they give

00:55:30.119 --> 00:55:31.900
those little boop boop, the little flash of the

00:55:31.900 --> 00:55:33.760
lights, letting you know there's a cop ahead.

00:55:34.179 --> 00:55:35.400
There's a cop ahead. I was like, oh, thank you,

00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:38.659
brother. My man. Yeah, oh yeah, for sure. or

00:55:38.659 --> 00:55:41.320
if I'm on a crowded highway and I see like a

00:55:41.320 --> 00:55:43.719
truck trying like hell to get over and I will

00:55:43.719 --> 00:55:45.920
slow that down so they can get over and then

00:55:45.920 --> 00:55:47.739
they boop boop they tap the brakes like thanks

00:55:47.739 --> 00:55:50.679
dude yeah right I mean that's because you got

00:55:50.679 --> 00:55:53.659
to be aware that's 60 feet of vehicle right I

00:55:53.659 --> 00:55:56.059
mean your car is eight feet long they think there's

00:55:56.059 --> 00:55:58.579
any kind of congestion it's just a bear to get

00:55:58.579 --> 00:56:01.019
over just gotta be yeah and typically people

00:56:01.019 --> 00:56:03.300
will understand okay it's a big truck they gotta

00:56:03.300 --> 00:56:06.150
get over yeah It's not like they're cutting you

00:56:06.150 --> 00:56:09.969
off. Average Chicagoan cough -cough. True. Oh,

00:56:10.030 --> 00:56:14.289
yeah. That's very true. The final DM I received,

00:56:14.869 --> 00:56:17.769
an old viewer, CrippyGru, checking in. Cripp.

00:56:17.889 --> 00:56:21.710
If you woke up to $1 million in your bank account,

00:56:22.110 --> 00:56:26.630
what are the first three things you'd do? Pay

00:56:26.630 --> 00:56:31.489
off my personal debts. Let's see. Move into a

00:56:31.489 --> 00:56:35.079
new apartment. Three. Go away for a week somewhere

00:56:35.079 --> 00:56:38.900
and just get away just de -stress and it's funny

00:56:38.900 --> 00:56:40.559
too because a lot of times like you're out of

00:56:40.559 --> 00:56:42.480
work, right? And it's like the weeks turn into

00:56:42.480 --> 00:56:45.139
months and whatever and it's just it sucks, you

00:56:45.139 --> 00:56:47.320
know But then like you try to convince people

00:56:47.320 --> 00:56:49.880
like yeah if I had that million dollars Getting

00:56:49.880 --> 00:56:51.400
away for a week somewhere is what I'm going to

00:56:51.400 --> 00:56:53.440
do. You've been off work. You've been off work.

00:56:53.440 --> 00:56:56.000
I'm not sitting in a lounge chair eating bonbons.

00:56:56.039 --> 00:56:58.159
Right. You know, it's like when people are out

00:56:58.159 --> 00:57:01.179
of work, it sucks and it's stressful. Yeah. So

00:57:01.179 --> 00:57:04.019
that means would I like to de -stress for a week

00:57:04.019 --> 00:57:07.519
and go sit on a beach or just go to Vegas and

00:57:07.519 --> 00:57:11.320
just drink and party and have fun and just just

00:57:11.320 --> 00:57:13.559
get away from shit for a week? The answer is

00:57:13.559 --> 00:57:18.179
yeah. Right. 100%. Yeah. I think first thing

00:57:18.179 --> 00:57:23.170
I would do Oh, man. New car. New car. Mine is

00:57:23.170 --> 00:57:26.070
dying. It's dying a slow death. Definitely on

00:57:26.070 --> 00:57:31.130
its deathbed. Which, to be fair, it's a 17 -year

00:57:31.130 --> 00:57:35.829
-old car, and it's got almost 250k miles on it.

00:57:36.090 --> 00:57:38.730
It's a trooper. So it's a trooper, but it is

00:57:38.730 --> 00:57:43.150
dying. So new car, numero uno. There's a lot

00:57:43.150 --> 00:57:46.090
I have to fix in this house. So I'd probably

00:57:46.090 --> 00:57:48.570
like kitchen renovation and new electric panel

00:57:48.570 --> 00:57:51.849
and all that. The third thing, as tempting as

00:57:51.849 --> 00:57:55.150
a vacation might be, I'd probably just put it

00:57:55.150 --> 00:58:00.269
away. Invest some of it? Yeah, yeah. Invest it

00:58:00.269 --> 00:58:04.769
in content creation and savings and whatever

00:58:04.769 --> 00:58:08.130
else. That's cool. Just because I don't have

00:58:08.130 --> 00:58:11.449
the PTO for a vacation, so I'm kind of stuck.

00:58:11.449 --> 00:58:13.110
That's fair. And a million's not enough to leave

00:58:13.110 --> 00:58:16.530
the job. Exactly, exactly. So that'd be my three.

00:58:16.750 --> 00:58:18.769
No, that's good. And how nice a million dollars

00:58:18.769 --> 00:58:23.820
would be. Oh my god. Shit. Well, that's Carpe

00:58:23.820 --> 00:58:27.139
Diem for this week. Please send us your Carpe

00:58:27.139 --> 00:58:32.059
Diem to the Mark Mo Show. We have a page, Facebook

00:58:32.059 --> 00:58:35.239
page, Maloney Media on Instagram, Hayden Maloney,

00:58:35.360 --> 00:58:38.519
Mark Maloney on most socials. You can find us,

00:58:38.559 --> 00:58:41.500
so shoot us a DM. We'll read it on the air. Maybe.

00:58:41.980 --> 00:58:45.500
Yeah, maybe. Probably, but still maybe. Right,

00:58:45.760 --> 00:58:51.630
the caveat is maybe. I think that is fair. That

00:58:51.630 --> 00:58:55.670
is definitely fair. All right. Let's do a little

00:58:55.670 --> 00:58:59.369
frozen guy review. Now, I don't get this one

00:58:59.369 --> 00:59:02.050
as often because they're usually not on sale.

00:59:02.090 --> 00:59:05.630
So I'm on sale. I was so excited. I wanted to

00:59:05.630 --> 00:59:07.650
buy all of them. Then I'm like, OK, I'm just,

00:59:07.650 --> 00:59:10.389
you know, I'm not living that high life to be

00:59:10.389 --> 00:59:13.210
able to buy five frozen meals. So I was like,

00:59:13.289 --> 00:59:15.550
OK, I'll just have to pick one. So I went and

00:59:15.550 --> 00:59:19.280
got Amy's. which is a great brand, and it was

00:59:19.280 --> 00:59:23.500
Amy's Cheddar Pasta Bake. So frickin' good. Yeah?

00:59:23.920 --> 00:59:27.139
Oh, it's excellent. Big corkscrew pasta, and

00:59:27.139 --> 00:59:29.860
the cheese is so good. Corkscrew holds the sauce

00:59:29.860 --> 00:59:34.840
nicely. It does. It really does. And they have

00:59:34.840 --> 00:59:37.340
the little bread crumble on the top of it too.

00:59:37.340 --> 00:59:40.980
Oh, nice. Which is always nice. Did it stay nice

00:59:40.980 --> 00:59:44.860
and crumbly? That's a great question. I often

00:59:44.860 --> 00:59:48.639
find... That the crumble some of it stays on

00:59:48.639 --> 00:59:50.619
that little plastic packaging that the bowl comes

00:59:50.619 --> 00:59:54.659
in so some of it kind of stays on that And then

00:59:54.659 --> 00:59:56.880
I find out when I put it in the microwave I heat

00:59:56.880 --> 00:59:59.059
it up because the heating instructions very simple

00:59:59.059 --> 01:00:00.940
on that way You don't have to cut any film and

01:00:00.940 --> 01:00:02.460
stir it and do all that kind of stuff. Yeah,

01:00:02.619 --> 01:00:05.780
you literally just put it in five minutes take

01:00:05.780 --> 01:00:09.780
it out of the plastic and Let it cool down for

01:00:09.780 --> 01:00:12.460
a minute or two and then you eat it. Okay, very

01:00:12.460 --> 01:00:18.260
simple stuff But I find that half of the crumblies

01:00:18.260 --> 01:00:20.099
end up on the bottom of the bowl. And I don't

01:00:20.099 --> 01:00:21.840
know how they end up there. And they just get

01:00:21.840 --> 01:00:25.380
stopped up. Yeah. Yeah. So that isn't great.

01:00:25.780 --> 01:00:28.980
But when they're in the bowl, very good. I think

01:00:28.980 --> 01:00:34.159
it's enough food for a lunch, for sure. $6 is

01:00:34.159 --> 01:00:36.519
the price point, so it's a little bit higher

01:00:36.519 --> 01:00:40.400
on the frozen food scale. Still less than your

01:00:40.400 --> 01:00:43.079
average shipped Burger King or McDonald's or

01:00:43.079 --> 01:00:47.920
anything like that. But at any rate, yeah, so

01:00:47.920 --> 01:00:54.619
it was a really good meal, good quantity, quality

01:00:54.619 --> 01:00:57.440
was excellent. Did I get it into the nights?

01:00:58.039 --> 01:01:01.429
That was the question. Right. And the answer

01:01:01.429 --> 01:01:05.010
is not quite. 8 .5 is where I went with Amy's.

01:01:05.010 --> 01:01:08.670
Still solid. But very good. Yeah. Still probably,

01:01:08.670 --> 01:01:11.530
for me, puts it in the top 10 % or 15 % of the

01:01:11.530 --> 01:01:14.130
frozen meals. Correct me if I'm wrong. Are those

01:01:14.130 --> 01:01:17.469
Amy's organic meals? They are. Oh, OK. Yeah.

01:01:17.510 --> 01:01:20.949
So they're a little bit healthier for you than

01:01:20.949 --> 01:01:24.469
your average frozen meal. So from the quality

01:01:24.469 --> 01:01:26.769
standpoint, from what you're paying for, but

01:01:26.769 --> 01:01:29.250
you're paying for some better food. it kind of

01:01:29.250 --> 01:01:32.829
all comes out in the wash. Yeah. So it's 8 .5.

01:01:32.849 --> 01:01:36.050
That's solid. Yeah, it's definitely good. So

01:01:36.050 --> 01:01:38.170
check out my Frozen Guy reviews here. One of

01:01:38.170 --> 01:01:40.329
these days I will get around making an Excel

01:01:40.329 --> 01:01:42.750
sheet and putting everything graded on there

01:01:42.750 --> 01:01:46.369
and then maybe release that at some point. Before

01:01:46.369 --> 01:01:49.349
we take our next break, we're on to the other

01:01:49.349 --> 01:01:52.920
foods. That's where Aidan scours the globe. Yes,

01:01:53.039 --> 01:01:54.800
little Globy's got. It's really cute. He scours

01:01:54.800 --> 01:01:57.860
it for hours sometimes. It's amazing. I just

01:01:57.860 --> 01:02:02.219
get lost in the sauce. I would too. Oh man. Anyway.

01:02:02.420 --> 01:02:07.139
Anyway. Anyway, he finds foods from other places.

01:02:07.599 --> 01:02:10.920
Sometimes from here, most times not. And they're

01:02:10.920 --> 01:02:12.860
just, they're disgusting. They're gross. They're

01:02:12.860 --> 01:02:15.900
the worst, most despicable thing ever. But he

01:02:15.900 --> 01:02:18.800
finds them. He lets you know about them. Yes.

01:02:19.000 --> 01:02:21.800
Yes, I do and this one comes from our good friends

01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:25.860
in Greenland a sovereign state the sovereign

01:02:25.860 --> 01:02:28.840
state of Greenland Greenland the sovereign state

01:02:28.840 --> 01:02:35.420
of Greenland a seagull wine Oh Seagull wine a

01:02:35.420 --> 01:02:39.139
traditional albeit infamous Inuit concoction

01:02:39.139 --> 01:02:41.619
from the Arctic Circle specifically Greenland

01:02:41.619 --> 01:02:45.159
the sovereign nation of Greenland made by placing

01:02:45.159 --> 01:02:48.719
a dead seagull into a bottle of water and allowing

01:02:48.719 --> 01:02:53.699
it to ferment in direct sunlight. Oh, no. I just.

01:02:54.119 --> 01:02:56.500
Maybe they shouldn't be there on their own. Maybe

01:02:56.500 --> 01:02:58.659
they need help. They need. They might need help.

01:02:58.820 --> 01:03:00.760
They need Denmark to step back in and be like

01:03:00.760 --> 01:03:03.159
fellas. Yeah. Fellas, come on now. Let's figure

01:03:03.159 --> 01:03:06.960
this out. Quote. Although Denmark's been an offender,

01:03:07.219 --> 01:03:10.800
too. Well, yeah, this is true. It is considered

01:03:10.800 --> 01:03:15.389
a potent. Heady alcoholic beverage often described

01:03:15.389 --> 01:03:19.010
as highly unconventional. Well, no shit with

01:03:19.010 --> 01:03:24.489
a reputation for being exceptionally strong The

01:03:24.489 --> 01:03:26.489
preparation of course is as simple as putting

01:03:26.489 --> 01:03:31.210
it a freshly deceased seagull Typically stuffed

01:03:31.210 --> 01:03:33.590
into a container like a glass bottle and then

01:03:33.590 --> 01:03:35.670
just filled with water and left to ferment in

01:03:35.670 --> 01:03:37.869
the Sun So it's like you ever heard of Sun tea?

01:03:38.039 --> 01:03:40.099
Yes. Where you just, you know, the tea bags and

01:03:40.099 --> 01:03:41.119
let it waddle through the sun. This is gulty.

01:03:41.300 --> 01:03:44.280
Yeah, it's just, it's just gulty. Which essentially

01:03:44.280 --> 01:03:47.260
turns it into wine. Oh my god. Because of the

01:03:47.260 --> 01:03:49.800
whole rotting seagull part of it. Oh god, god.

01:03:50.380 --> 01:03:55.460
Um, the scent and taste, very simply, quote,

01:03:55.519 --> 01:04:00.000
it is known for producing a musky and ammoniacal

01:04:00.000 --> 01:04:05.699
odor. Oh, why? Oh man, I mean, there's better

01:04:05.699 --> 01:04:07.780
ways to get your buzz on, dude. You don't have

01:04:07.780 --> 01:04:15.019
to drink seagull. But yeah, apparently it's a

01:04:15.019 --> 01:04:18.800
quote -unquote extreme Inuit method of preservation,

01:04:19.059 --> 01:04:24.900
and it's just not good. It's just not good. It's

01:04:24.900 --> 01:04:29.400
not how I would ferment things. Not that I am

01:04:29.400 --> 01:04:32.739
the judge, jury, and executioner of how you should

01:04:32.739 --> 01:04:35.349
or shouldn't ferment. But dead seagull in the

01:04:35.349 --> 01:04:38.969
water, in the jar, in the sun? Yeah. Yeah. You

01:04:38.969 --> 01:04:41.650
know what? Not for me. No. It's just not for

01:04:41.650 --> 01:04:45.130
me. Yeah. In my opinion. I get it. We'll seagull

01:04:45.130 --> 01:04:48.510
wine for you. That's, ooh, god. Just for you,

01:04:48.510 --> 01:04:51.789
actually. Yeah, thanks. You're welcome. That's

01:04:51.789 --> 01:04:55.130
amazing. Well, I made it. Oh, did you now? Are

01:04:55.130 --> 01:04:57.929
you sure it's a seagull? No. Because I heard

01:04:57.929 --> 01:05:00.590
pigeon wine is awesome. Well, yeah, you take

01:05:00.590 --> 01:05:05.380
the pigeon and you put it in the rat milk. And

01:05:05.380 --> 01:05:08.739
then you stick it under your furnace for five

01:05:08.739 --> 01:05:12.239
years. Oh, God. Yeah, see, that's where I mess

01:05:12.239 --> 01:05:14.260
it up. I always bury it in the arm. Yeah, exactly.

01:05:14.579 --> 01:05:16.219
And then you take it out from under the furnace

01:05:16.219 --> 01:05:20.340
and swiftly die of botulism. Aw. I know. That's

01:05:20.340 --> 01:05:25.219
so nice. What a way to go. God, what a way to

01:05:25.219 --> 01:05:29.099
go. He died just as he lived. Drinking pigeon

01:05:29.099 --> 01:05:33.159
rat wine. Oh, God. That's, I'm actually gonna

01:05:33.159 --> 01:05:36.019
drink some right now. I'm gonna do that. Goodbye.

01:05:47.199 --> 01:05:49.699
All right, we are back everybody, and it is time

01:05:49.699 --> 01:05:53.659
for our feature segment, You Just Made the List.

01:05:54.059 --> 01:05:56.699
And that's basically what it is. We make a list

01:05:56.699 --> 01:05:59.599
each and every week. Could be basically anything.

01:06:00.119 --> 01:06:04.239
10 through 2 with our big number 1 reveal. And

01:06:04.239 --> 01:06:06.139
then I've consulted the rule books. Here are

01:06:06.139 --> 01:06:10.400
the rules we have to follow. Oh, no. Yeah, yeah,

01:06:10.539 --> 01:06:13.739
yeah. The stipulations. Well? All the red tape.

01:06:14.260 --> 01:06:16.860
Yeah, all the red tape. According to section

01:06:16.860 --> 01:06:21.820
5, line 4, subsection B, there are no rules.

01:06:22.360 --> 01:06:25.079
Ooh, let's go. How about that? Let's go. Surprised

01:06:25.079 --> 01:06:27.380
they had to go to subsection B to say that, but...

01:06:27.340 --> 01:06:29.840
It's still appreciated. You know, I don't make

01:06:29.840 --> 01:06:33.440
the rules. I just follow them. This is true.

01:06:34.079 --> 01:06:36.579
We do follow them very closely. Indeed we do.

01:06:37.260 --> 01:06:42.880
So this week, our top 10 list, canned beverages.

01:06:43.579 --> 01:06:47.099
Top 10 canned beverages. Can go a lot of ways

01:06:47.099 --> 01:06:49.059
with that. Any beverage you can fit in a can.

01:06:49.639 --> 01:06:52.300
That's right. Canned rat milk. Can that fit in

01:06:52.300 --> 01:06:55.860
it? Do they make it? Ooh, yum. Yeah, we haven't

01:06:55.860 --> 01:06:58.920
done that. We did research on rat milk. We did

01:06:58.920 --> 01:07:02.440
was that in season 5 or was that 4? That feels

01:07:02.440 --> 01:07:04.679
recent. Feels a little more recent. I wanna say

01:07:04.679 --> 01:07:07.579
beginning of season 5 maybe. So is season 5.

01:07:07.820 --> 01:07:09.340
The rat milk debacle. Season of the rat milk.

01:07:10.519 --> 01:07:13.940
Yeah. We're like, well they have babies. Does

01:07:13.940 --> 01:07:15.619
that mean they have nipples? Does that mean those

01:07:15.619 --> 01:07:18.550
nipples have milk? They are mammals. So because

01:07:18.550 --> 01:07:20.989
there's all these crazy types of milk, and we

01:07:20.989 --> 01:07:23.449
have rat milk. Right. And yes, they do have rat

01:07:23.449 --> 01:07:25.769
milk. They do. It's not meant for human consumption.

01:07:25.769 --> 01:07:29.550
It is not. But it could be. Could be. Boy, that'd

01:07:29.550 --> 01:07:32.110
be a challenge, right? Get somebody on a podcast

01:07:32.110 --> 01:07:36.429
to drink a cup of rat milk. Right. God they die

01:07:36.429 --> 01:07:39.309
right on air man. I do it would you do it? I'd

01:07:39.309 --> 01:07:41.829
be we're already the rat milk guys. We are the

01:07:41.829 --> 01:07:43.750
rat milk I have to go through the proponents

01:07:43.750 --> 01:07:46.469
of rat milk exactly the biggest supporters. Yes

01:07:46.469 --> 01:07:49.030
legalize rat milk I go to my local coffee shop,

01:07:49.030 --> 01:07:50.869
and they're like whole milk, and I'm like do

01:07:50.869 --> 01:07:52.829
you have rat milk rat milk Yeah, please please.

01:07:52.829 --> 01:07:55.389
Oh, we've got soy. No. I'll go with the rat the

01:07:55.389 --> 01:07:59.190
rat milk, please I'm sorry. Did I stutter yeah,

01:07:59.269 --> 01:08:03.449
right? So anyway, top 10, what do you got? Top

01:08:03.449 --> 01:08:05.989
10 canned beverages of all time. I'll run my

01:08:05.989 --> 01:08:10.030
10 through 2. Number 10, Zero Sugar A &W Root

01:08:10.030 --> 01:08:13.550
Beer. Oh, good one. It is, in my opinion, the

01:08:13.550 --> 01:08:18.550
greatest form of root beer. It's so tasty. And

01:08:18.550 --> 01:08:22.130
usually like with zero sugar or diet versions

01:08:22.130 --> 01:08:27.010
of sodas, you can kind of taste the weird aspartame

01:08:27.010 --> 01:08:30.819
sucralose kind of chemical -iness. Yeah. It does

01:08:30.819 --> 01:08:33.680
not. It's hidden by the wonderful flavors of

01:08:33.680 --> 01:08:36.300
root beer. That's pretty amazing. It is fantastic.

01:08:36.520 --> 01:08:39.760
I'm not a huge soda guy, right? I know that.

01:08:40.319 --> 01:08:43.399
Yeah, I'm not a soda drinker. It's either water,

01:08:43.720 --> 01:08:46.359
coffee, or sparkling water, or energy drinks

01:08:46.359 --> 01:08:48.939
for me. But yeah, that is a soda I had to put

01:08:48.939 --> 01:08:51.720
in the top 10 because it is fantastic. Number

01:08:51.720 --> 01:08:55.619
nine, Great Lakes Barrel Aged Christmas Ale.

01:08:56.199 --> 01:09:00.770
It is fantastic. Wow. the best Christmas beer

01:09:00.770 --> 01:09:04.810
I have ever had, and easily in my top ten canned

01:09:04.810 --> 01:09:09.029
beverages. Number eight, the Arizona RX Energy

01:09:09.029 --> 01:09:12.210
Tonic. If you've ever tried that. I have not.

01:09:12.409 --> 01:09:15.149
Most places still have them for 99 cents. Some

01:09:15.149 --> 01:09:17.890
of the shittier places charge like $1 .50 now,

01:09:17.890 --> 01:09:21.109
which is kind of whack, but it is fantastic.

01:09:22.149 --> 01:09:28.029
It's like an herbal tea, herbal tea energy drink.

01:09:28.659 --> 01:09:31.199
essentially. Okay. And it's really good. It is

01:09:31.199 --> 01:09:34.119
very, very good. And for being one dollar, it's

01:09:34.119 --> 01:09:37.840
hard to beat. No doubt. Number seven, the Trader

01:09:37.840 --> 01:09:41.819
Joe's Pineapple Hard Cider. I'm a huge pineapple

01:09:41.819 --> 01:09:45.760
guy. I do enjoy my ciders, even though some of

01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:48.819
them can get pretty sweet. This one was not overly

01:09:48.819 --> 01:09:54.340
sweet. And it's fantastic. We for a segment coming

01:09:54.340 --> 01:09:56.539
up later, our official beer review, we use the

01:09:56.539 --> 01:10:01.300
untapped app. to rank beers and ciders and malt

01:10:01.300 --> 01:10:05.079
beverages and how much we enjoy them. I had tried

01:10:05.079 --> 01:10:07.979
that one, I think, a year ago when I first tried

01:10:07.979 --> 01:10:12.800
it. I gave it a 475 out of five. It is fantastic.

01:10:13.359 --> 01:10:18.039
Number seven, the Revolution Brewing Maple Jacket

01:10:18.039 --> 01:10:24.159
Barley Wine Ale. It is thick, it's heavy, it's

01:10:24.159 --> 01:10:26.880
wintery. The reason we haven't tried it on the

01:10:26.880 --> 01:10:30.380
mark mo show is because it's very expensive Yeah,

01:10:30.699 --> 01:10:34.659
yeah a six pack of 12 ounce cans run something

01:10:34.659 --> 01:10:38.840
like 20 or 30 dollars damn But goddamn is it

01:10:38.840 --> 01:10:41.720
good? Yeah, yeah, really good. I don't remember

01:10:41.720 --> 01:10:44.520
if it's limited run or not They may have already

01:10:44.520 --> 01:10:48.460
went through the run. Yeah, but it was it's fantastic

01:10:48.460 --> 01:10:54.760
number five the cherry lime La Croix The best

01:10:54.760 --> 01:10:57.439
sparkling water I've ever had. And I love sparkling

01:10:57.439 --> 01:10:59.199
water, but that is far and away the best one.

01:10:59.239 --> 01:11:01.300
It comes in the slim cans because it's special

01:11:01.300 --> 01:11:06.119
and cool. It's fancy, but it is absolutely wonderful.

01:11:06.600 --> 01:11:09.520
Number four, not your father's root beer. The

01:11:09.520 --> 01:11:13.239
better version of root beer. Yeah, yeah. Making

01:11:13.239 --> 01:11:15.779
root beer floats with that is a dream come true,

01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:19.279
quite honestly. Number three, the New Belgium

01:11:19.279 --> 01:11:24.029
Voodoo Ranger Juice Force. IPA. I'm a big IPA

01:11:24.029 --> 01:11:26.109
guy and I think that's probably my favorite IPA

01:11:26.109 --> 01:11:28.869
of all time. Is it? Absolutely. Yeah. And number

01:11:28.869 --> 01:11:33.010
two on my list, Mountain Dew Kickstart Pineapple

01:11:33.010 --> 01:11:37.489
Orange Mango energy drink. Oh, energy drink,

01:11:37.710 --> 01:11:41.949
yep. Yep. Yeah, I never knew until probably in

01:11:41.949 --> 01:11:45.029
the last year or so that Mountain Dew makes an

01:11:45.029 --> 01:11:47.409
energy drink called Kickstart and I tried, like

01:11:47.409 --> 01:11:49.760
I... That's the thing when I get energy drinks,

01:11:49.819 --> 01:11:52.539
I don't want them to be super sugar heavy. Yeah.

01:11:52.680 --> 01:11:54.819
Because I'm not really a huge sugar guy anyway.

01:11:56.359 --> 01:11:58.479
But yeah, I looked at it and it's like 10 grams

01:11:58.479 --> 01:12:03.279
of sugar for the whole thing. Where like a typical

01:12:03.279 --> 01:12:05.840
can of Mountain Dew is like 50. Yeah. I was like,

01:12:06.220 --> 01:12:09.100
oh, that's not so bad. And I tried it and it's

01:12:09.100 --> 01:12:12.359
one of the most wonderful canned beverages to

01:12:12.359 --> 01:12:16.039
grace my tongue. Wow. Yeah. Well put. Absolutely.

01:12:16.380 --> 01:12:18.819
Almost also a big pineapple guy should have said

01:12:18.819 --> 01:12:22.699
that yeah not on your pizza though No, no that

01:12:22.699 --> 01:12:25.239
that'll get your pineapple stay sweet not savory

01:12:25.239 --> 01:12:29.760
Yep, yeah That was number two. Yeah. Mm -hmm.

01:12:29.880 --> 01:12:34.140
All right my top ten list number ten bush light

01:12:34.140 --> 01:12:39.189
because of the cheaper beers That one does not

01:12:39.189 --> 01:12:41.449
offend my palate as much and when it's cold,

01:12:41.630 --> 01:12:43.750
it's actually not too bad. Sure. And you also

01:12:43.750 --> 01:12:46.430
found the trick of you can put like a lime and

01:12:46.430 --> 01:12:49.350
an orange in there. Yep. Yeah, you get a fruity

01:12:49.350 --> 01:12:52.170
bush. Fruity bush. That's our favorite thing.

01:12:52.890 --> 01:12:56.430
Indeed. Love a fruity bush. Number nine, modello.

01:12:57.130 --> 01:12:59.869
Big modello guy. Yeah, you know, a little lemon

01:12:59.869 --> 01:13:01.970
in there. Modelo is pretty good. Negra Modelo

01:13:01.970 --> 01:13:04.250
is fantastic. Yeah, Negra Nello is pretty good.

01:13:04.550 --> 01:13:07.270
Yeah, the amber version, I think. Yeah, amber

01:13:07.270 --> 01:13:10.710
is cute. Anyway, yeah, I don't even know her,

01:13:11.109 --> 01:13:13.989
really, that much. Amber, I hardly know her.

01:13:15.329 --> 01:13:19.010
Hey -o, that's back to the list. Anyway, number

01:13:19.010 --> 01:13:23.729
eight core is light. Number seven, bang, purple

01:13:23.729 --> 01:13:28.989
haze. If you like, grape. Grape is fantastic.

01:13:30.130 --> 01:13:32.510
That that is a great underrated fruit flavor.

01:13:32.510 --> 01:13:35.869
Oh, I agree underrated fruit as well. I like

01:13:35.869 --> 01:13:38.529
fruit Oh most fruits. I don't like I like their

01:13:38.529 --> 01:13:40.529
flavoring. I like their flavoring. I don't like

01:13:40.529 --> 01:13:43.890
to eat them. Yeah Grapes are one of them. Like

01:13:43.890 --> 01:13:45.789
you put them in your mouth and I feel like why

01:13:45.789 --> 01:13:49.670
am I eating an eyeball? It's nature's gusher.

01:13:49.670 --> 01:13:52.689
It is nature's gusher Yeah, like you bite into

01:13:52.689 --> 01:13:54.510
it and it's just like a big fat piece of boba

01:13:54.510 --> 01:13:57.810
in your mouth. I'm like ah No, the reason I don't

01:13:57.810 --> 01:13:59.960
drink boba The same reason I don't eat grapes.

01:13:59.960 --> 01:14:02.939
Don't eat grapes, sure. Those bang energy drinks,

01:14:03.000 --> 01:14:05.800
those are like popping, man. That's like 300

01:14:05.800 --> 01:14:08.420
mils of caffeine in there. Those get you going.

01:14:08.420 --> 01:14:11.420
Almost enough for me. Yeah, exactly. Almost enough

01:14:11.420 --> 01:14:13.779
for me. I literally need an injection of caffeine

01:14:13.779 --> 01:14:15.819
to keep moving every day. Yeah. I don't know

01:14:15.819 --> 01:14:19.279
how I do it. Number six, Guinness. Oh, there

01:14:19.279 --> 01:14:22.140
you go. Number six, Guinness. Aiden has perfected

01:14:22.140 --> 01:14:24.680
the can pour. The can pour of Guinness I have

01:14:24.680 --> 01:14:29.100
down to a science. That is fair. I agree. It's

01:14:29.100 --> 01:14:31.140
just fantastic. Now, out the bottle, it's fine.

01:14:31.399 --> 01:14:33.680
It's good. It's still Guinness. But the can,

01:14:33.819 --> 01:14:35.199
you get the little... Better than the can. You

01:14:35.199 --> 01:14:38.180
get the little ball of nitrogen in there. Yes.

01:14:38.859 --> 01:14:42.079
Similarly to how it's nitrogenated out of the

01:14:42.079 --> 01:14:47.100
keg as well. Right. Yep. Yeah. Number five, Diet

01:14:47.100 --> 01:14:50.979
Dr. Pepper. God, I love Dr. Pepper too. Yeah.

01:14:51.479 --> 01:14:53.600
It's so good. I don't know what the 23 flavors

01:14:53.600 --> 01:14:55.840
are. I don't want to know. Yeah, sometimes a

01:14:55.840 --> 01:14:58.680
mystery is best left unsolved. Right. Yep. So

01:14:58.680 --> 01:15:00.579
it's like, die Dr. Pepper, you want to keep those

01:15:00.579 --> 01:15:03.579
23 to yourself. Feel free. You know, the Colonel,

01:15:03.840 --> 01:15:05.920
you got all your herbs and spices. You just do,

01:15:05.920 --> 01:15:08.159
you do you boo. I don't need to try to copy you.

01:15:08.300 --> 01:15:10.020
Yeah. And there's like people online who are

01:15:10.020 --> 01:15:11.979
like, oh, well, I know what the 11 herbs and

01:15:11.979 --> 01:15:14.020
spices are. And I just, I block them immediately.

01:15:14.140 --> 01:15:16.000
Yeah. I'm like, how dare you? Wow. Yeah. Great

01:15:16.000 --> 01:15:18.060
for you. Yeah. What would the Colonel think?

01:15:18.530 --> 01:15:21.069
Oh, Colonel's gonna... He's gonna be quite cross.

01:15:21.250 --> 01:15:23.869
He is going to be cross. He's gonna be crisscross.

01:15:24.130 --> 01:15:29.050
Whoa, applesauce. Oh, no. Oh, no. It's not where

01:15:29.050 --> 01:15:31.529
I wanted that to go. Were you thinking of the

01:15:31.529 --> 01:15:33.789
rap artists? I was thinking of the rap artists.

01:15:34.029 --> 01:15:35.909
And then you said applesauce, and I'm like, oh.

01:15:37.050 --> 01:15:41.039
Oh, no, his white is showing. Yeah. Yep, he went

01:15:41.039 --> 01:15:43.340
from pineapple to applesauce and just like all

01:15:43.340 --> 01:15:44.640
his street credit is gone. Pineapple apple pen

01:15:44.640 --> 01:15:46.899
or whatever. I never had street credit. You're

01:15:46.899 --> 01:15:48.600
like, I never had street credit. Are you kidding

01:15:48.600 --> 01:15:52.159
me? I have a reputation below zero. Below zero,

01:15:52.159 --> 01:15:55.640
that's fair. Number four, Miller Lite. Number

01:15:55.640 --> 01:15:58.560
three, Miller High Life. Ooh, there you go. And

01:15:58.560 --> 01:16:00.899
number two. Champagne of beers. It is a champagne

01:16:00.899 --> 01:16:04.420
of beers. Number two, Diet Pepsi. Big Diet Pepsi

01:16:04.420 --> 01:16:08.039
guy over there. Huge, huge. And you know, I want

01:16:08.039 --> 01:16:10.460
to give a shout out to Diet Coke, but only. the

01:16:10.460 --> 01:16:13.500
Diet Coke at McDonald's. Yeah, they do it different

01:16:13.500 --> 01:16:15.340
somehow. They do. They put crack in it. I don't

01:16:15.340 --> 01:16:17.039
know what they do. Yeah, they put the cocaine

01:16:17.039 --> 01:16:20.140
back in Diet Coke, is what they do. Allegedly,

01:16:20.319 --> 01:16:24.060
I hear. Thank you? Yeah. So thank you is an order,

01:16:24.199 --> 01:16:28.460
I guess. All right, we're on to number one. Numero

01:16:28.460 --> 01:16:31.560
uno, best can beverage of all time, in my humble

01:16:31.560 --> 01:16:35.439
opinion. The Monster Zero Ultra, the white can.

01:16:35.659 --> 01:16:39.340
The Monster White can. It's fantastic. It's got

01:16:39.340 --> 01:16:41.880
this, like, tropical -y, citrus -y kind of flavor

01:16:41.880 --> 01:16:44.500
to it, where your tongue is kind of confused.

01:16:44.680 --> 01:16:46.779
It's like, is that pineapple? Is there lime in

01:16:46.779 --> 01:16:48.779
there? I don't know, papaya or guava? Like, what's

01:16:48.779 --> 01:16:51.579
going on? And it doesn't matter. It's one of

01:16:51.579 --> 01:16:54.000
the greatest energy drinks I've ever had. And

01:16:54.000 --> 01:16:55.619
the only reason I don't get it more is because

01:16:55.619 --> 01:16:59.239
it's a little too pricey for my taste. So I just

01:16:59.239 --> 01:17:01.859
buy energy drinks from Oldie, because they're

01:17:01.859 --> 01:17:05.220
almost as good. And, like, one third of the cost.

01:17:05.520 --> 01:17:08.359
Well, but that is that's the best can beverage

01:17:08.359 --> 01:17:11.460
in my opinion is is the white monster can It's

01:17:11.460 --> 01:17:13.859
just so good and it gets okay gets the heart

01:17:13.859 --> 01:17:17.539
pumping. Yeah. All right. Yeah. Um, all right,

01:17:17.699 --> 01:17:25.260
so mine to no surprise PBR 16 ounce can the peber

01:17:25.260 --> 01:17:28.079
Peber yeah, there's there's a reason I walk into

01:17:28.079 --> 01:17:30.119
most bars and they just put it in front of me

01:17:30.119 --> 01:17:32.569
pint of peber ready to go Yeah, that's the way

01:17:32.569 --> 01:17:34.869
to go. Yeah. And there's very, that's something

01:17:34.869 --> 01:17:36.770
I've noticed too, is there's very few places

01:17:36.770 --> 01:17:40.829
that tap a PBR keg. They just have pints of PBR

01:17:40.829 --> 01:17:43.289
cans. That's true. Which is fine. I mean, PBR

01:17:43.289 --> 01:17:47.750
is PBR. Yeah. The PBR remains good. But I like

01:17:47.750 --> 01:17:50.390
the 16 ounce can more than the draft. Oh, is

01:17:50.390 --> 01:17:53.409
that right? Way more. Like I actually do not

01:17:53.409 --> 01:17:56.109
like the draft. What about it do you think changes?

01:17:56.729 --> 01:17:59.470
I don't know. The flavor profile is just different.

01:17:59.770 --> 01:18:02.390
Concentration of bubbles or maybe drinking it

01:18:02.390 --> 01:18:04.850
out of glass is different. Yeah, there's there's

01:18:04.850 --> 01:18:07.789
one bar in particular in town and that I'll get

01:18:07.789 --> 01:18:09.569
the draft room a lot because they just happen

01:18:09.569 --> 01:18:13.189
to have draft specials for the domestics. And

01:18:13.189 --> 01:18:18.810
usually it's PBR old style or light. OK. And

01:18:18.810 --> 01:18:22.590
I will take the light or the old style before

01:18:22.590 --> 01:18:25.970
I will take the PBR. I just don't like it. And

01:18:25.970 --> 01:18:27.810
maybe it's their tap. I don't know. Maybe if

01:18:27.810 --> 01:18:29.710
I tried another place, it might be different.

01:18:30.229 --> 01:18:33.250
But I'm not a fan. Interesting how that works.

01:18:33.310 --> 01:18:37.050
But I love it out of the can. Fancy that. Fancy

01:18:37.050 --> 01:18:39.109
that. You always learn something new. Just like

01:18:39.109 --> 01:18:40.930
the Guinness in the can versus Guinness in the

01:18:40.930 --> 01:18:43.609
bottle. Yeah, this is true. This is true. It's

01:18:43.609 --> 01:18:46.350
two different drinks, in my opinion. I agree.

01:18:46.829 --> 01:18:51.470
Fully agree. Well, if you have any canned beverages

01:18:51.470 --> 01:18:54.050
that we didn't mention that you love... And so

01:18:54.050 --> 01:18:57.329
we were definitely caffeine and beer heavy. Oh,

01:18:57.329 --> 01:19:00.149
very much so. But that's most of the good canned

01:19:00.149 --> 01:19:06.210
beverages. Maybe Reginald Crotchbottom is sitting

01:19:06.210 --> 01:19:10.449
there going, you know, I do happen to like the

01:19:10.449 --> 01:19:16.670
tomato, you know, tomato juice in the can. I

01:19:16.670 --> 01:19:21.260
drink caper brine out of a can. I'm Reginald.

01:19:21.479 --> 01:19:27.500
Did they mention rat milk? Yes, we did. We did.

01:19:27.500 --> 01:19:29.819
We did. We can't not mention it. We do not want

01:19:29.819 --> 01:19:32.680
to disappoint. Yes. That is for sure. All right.

01:19:32.680 --> 01:19:35.039
This is where Aiden goes down the Reddit rabbit

01:19:35.039 --> 01:19:37.939
hole. He does this every week. And he makes it

01:19:37.939 --> 01:19:40.260
out most times. Sometimes we have to send a rescue

01:19:40.260 --> 01:19:43.399
party. This is true. But he's here, which means

01:19:43.399 --> 01:19:45.520
he made it out. So what did you find down the

01:19:45.520 --> 01:19:48.739
Reddit rabbit hole? I found an interesting article

01:19:48.739 --> 01:19:53.619
here. annual theft losses in the United States.

01:19:54.079 --> 01:19:58.720
And this comes from the FBI uniform crime reporting

01:19:58.720 --> 01:20:03.060
and this statistic is accurate of 2012 reporting

01:20:03.060 --> 01:20:06.640
annual theft losses in the United States. And

01:20:06.640 --> 01:20:10.239
I found this very interesting. So these types

01:20:10.239 --> 01:20:13.680
of theft robbery is point three four billion

01:20:13.680 --> 01:20:18.340
dollars annually. Wow. in the United States.

01:20:18.560 --> 01:20:23.619
Auto theft. Grand theft auto, if you will. 3

01:20:23.619 --> 01:20:27.460
.8 billion dollars. Yep, and that's just from

01:20:27.460 --> 01:20:31.819
my gameplay alone. Exactly. Burglary in general,

01:20:31.920 --> 01:20:36.760
kind of a wide term. 4 .10 billion dollars in

01:20:36.760 --> 01:20:39.979
the U .S. annually. Wow. Mind you, these statistics

01:20:39.979 --> 01:20:44.600
are a decade old. Decade and change old So these

01:20:44.600 --> 01:20:46.199
numbers are probably a little more inflated,

01:20:46.199 --> 01:20:48.100
but this is just the most accurate graph I could

01:20:48.100 --> 01:20:51.699
get recently larceny five point three billion

01:20:51.699 --> 01:20:56.180
dollars yearly Thefted in the u .s. Here's where

01:20:56.180 --> 01:20:58.920
it gets crazy those numbers. I just mentioned

01:20:58.920 --> 01:21:03.079
Yeah, are about 25 percent of this graph. Oh,

01:21:03.079 --> 01:21:08.520
no the other 75 % Yeah, are some form of wage

01:21:08.520 --> 01:21:14.039
theft Really? Approximately 75 % of theft yearly

01:21:14.039 --> 01:21:16.859
in the United States is wage theft from the working

01:21:16.859 --> 01:21:20.960
class. Is that not fucking crazy? That's unbelievable.

01:21:21.399 --> 01:21:26.579
Off the clock violations. Oh. $3 .2 billion every

01:21:26.579 --> 01:21:31.079
year. Wow. Rest break violations. $4 billion

01:21:31.079 --> 01:21:36.060
every year. Overtime violations. $8 .8 billion

01:21:36.060 --> 01:21:40.170
every year. No. The largest portion of this pie

01:21:40.170 --> 01:21:43.430
graph, about one third of it. Minimum wage violations.

01:21:44.449 --> 01:21:49.489
$23 .2 billion. Oh, that's disgusting. Every

01:21:49.489 --> 01:21:53.850
year in the United States. Theft in this country.

01:21:54.430 --> 01:21:57.489
Three quarters of theft in this country are wage

01:21:57.489 --> 01:22:00.390
violations. That's gross. That's so gross. Wage

01:22:00.390 --> 01:22:03.710
theft. God. How foul is that? That's foul. I

01:22:03.710 --> 01:22:06.899
mean, that's... And what is the fucking billionaire

01:22:06.899 --> 01:22:10.920
-owned media run? Oh, a store got robbed recently.

01:22:11.220 --> 01:22:15.479
Oh, the 7 -Eleven got held up. They're stealing

01:22:15.479 --> 01:22:19.640
Kia's and Hyundai's. They're reporting on the

01:22:19.640 --> 01:22:23.720
25 % of this graph that affects them. Good lord.

01:22:24.359 --> 01:22:29.000
75 % of theft losses in the U .S. are wage theft

01:22:29.000 --> 01:22:33.020
violations. Interesting how those don't get reported.

01:22:33.229 --> 01:22:36.409
Mm -hmm. Very interesting. That's what I found

01:22:36.409 --> 01:22:38.189
going down the red rabbit hole, and it just kind

01:22:38.189 --> 01:22:41.449
of made me mad. Yeah, wow. Just kind of made

01:22:41.449 --> 01:22:45.369
me mad. That, uh... Three fucking quarters. God.

01:22:45.930 --> 01:22:48.090
That's unreal. I would have never guessed that.

01:22:48.289 --> 01:22:50.270
Yep. If I had ten guesses, I wouldn't have guessed

01:22:50.270 --> 01:22:54.170
it. That's unbelievable. Yeah, I found that insane.

01:22:54.750 --> 01:22:57.810
That is insane. Wow. Straight from the FBI's

01:22:57.810 --> 01:23:02.510
mouth. Yeah. Well... From 2012 so it's oh so

01:23:02.510 --> 01:23:04.890
reputable yeah reputable agency at that yeah

01:23:04.890 --> 01:23:08.550
exactly got it All right before we take our final

01:23:08.550 --> 01:23:11.470
break while you were sleeping so Aidan takes

01:23:11.470 --> 01:23:14.930
a look at things like movies and TV shows and

01:23:14.930 --> 01:23:18.630
and youtubers and various other things in pop

01:23:18.630 --> 01:23:21.890
culture the things that kind of Just kind of

01:23:21.890 --> 01:23:24.329
slid under yeah under the radar, but Aidan finds

01:23:24.329 --> 01:23:27.329
him he finds him, and he says hey you you yeah

01:23:27.329 --> 01:23:29.760
you No, really. I'll wait a minute. Go to a mirror.

01:23:29.920 --> 01:23:33.079
Yeah. It's cool. You! Did you get there? You!

01:23:33.520 --> 01:23:35.380
Or just like selfie mode on your phone. Just

01:23:35.380 --> 01:23:37.760
selfie mode, whatever. Unless you're driving,

01:23:38.079 --> 01:23:40.260
in which case you got the rear view mirror. Just

01:23:40.260 --> 01:23:41.819
a thought. Or you could just pop on your phone

01:23:41.819 --> 01:23:44.100
and just cause death and mayhem. Most people

01:23:44.100 --> 01:23:47.100
do. Yeah, indeed they do. Is what I hear. That's

01:23:47.100 --> 01:23:50.500
what I hear. So, for everybody, except for Don

01:23:50.500 --> 01:23:52.420
who just looked at his phone while he was driving

01:23:52.420 --> 01:23:54.739
and... Passed away tragically. Killed a school

01:23:54.739 --> 01:23:59.289
bus full of nuns. So, what did we miss? You guys

01:23:59.289 --> 01:24:02.770
missed a YouTube video. Now, I think I've talked

01:24:02.770 --> 01:24:07.369
about this YouTuber before. They are Drew Gooden.

01:24:07.789 --> 01:24:10.750
Excellent, excellent YouTuber. This dude goes

01:24:10.750 --> 01:24:13.390
back to the Vine days of social media and then

01:24:13.390 --> 01:24:16.189
transitioned over to YouTube. And this YouTube

01:24:16.189 --> 01:24:20.310
video is called Greed is Destroying the World.

01:24:20.770 --> 01:24:24.000
Greed? Greed. Now, you can probably look it up

01:24:24.000 --> 01:24:26.000
and find it by typing, Greed is destroying the

01:24:26.000 --> 01:24:29.960
world, Drew Gooden, and you will find it. It's

01:24:29.960 --> 01:24:34.520
an amazing video. It's just over 30 minutes long,

01:24:34.659 --> 01:24:36.260
so you could probably watch it during your lunch

01:24:36.260 --> 01:24:39.060
break, if you get one, which most of us don't.

01:24:40.180 --> 01:24:44.840
He's not a political commentary guy. He's just

01:24:44.840 --> 01:24:47.829
a commentary YouTube. He'll talk about... sports

01:24:47.829 --> 01:24:52.029
media or silly bad Christmas movies and just

01:24:52.029 --> 01:24:54.550
funny things like that. And out of the blue,

01:24:55.670 --> 01:24:58.729
in winter of 2025, he drops this video, Greatest

01:24:58.729 --> 01:25:02.250
Destroying the World, probably one of the best

01:25:02.250 --> 01:25:09.010
researched and presented videos on how billionaires

01:25:09.010 --> 01:25:13.329
and corporations are destroying the earth and

01:25:13.329 --> 01:25:16.399
societies we know it. Right. this dude that talks

01:25:16.399 --> 01:25:18.680
about bad Christmas movies just woke up one day.

01:25:18.779 --> 01:25:21.619
Now granted, not to downplay Drew Gooden, he's

01:25:21.619 --> 01:25:25.659
a very intelligent and funny guy, but I was just

01:25:25.659 --> 01:25:27.960
kind of flabbergasted at how well presented this

01:25:27.960 --> 01:25:31.020
was. And you know me, I've had a handful of YouTubers

01:25:31.020 --> 01:25:35.340
before, Vsauce and Veritasium of the science

01:25:35.340 --> 01:25:39.880
genre, and I love well presented things. I love

01:25:39.880 --> 01:25:42.680
complex topics that are kind of broken down and

01:25:42.680 --> 01:25:46.140
put in terms that are... Easier to grasp and

01:25:46.140 --> 01:25:49.079
that's exactly what this is. It's not like the

01:25:49.079 --> 01:25:53.380
bullshit jargon you hear on CNBC It's not like

01:25:53.380 --> 01:25:57.039
all dividends and stock breakdowns and shit.

01:25:57.039 --> 01:26:00.560
No, it's it's put Not to dumb it down. It's put

01:26:00.560 --> 01:26:04.140
in Lehman's terms with Overwhelming evidence

01:26:04.140 --> 01:26:07.880
to back it up and it's just the best presented

01:26:07.880 --> 01:26:13.020
I've ever seen the argument against this weird

01:26:15.259 --> 01:26:17.819
destructive corporatist oligarchy we find ourselves

01:26:17.819 --> 01:26:20.399
in. And I just recommend everyone go out there

01:26:20.399 --> 01:26:23.939
and watch it because it's incredible. It's incredible

01:26:23.939 --> 01:26:25.500
and it's not going to take you a lot of time.

01:26:25.699 --> 01:26:28.560
It does not beat around the bushes. It's just

01:26:28.560 --> 01:26:31.300
like, here's fact, here's why. And it's presented

01:26:31.300 --> 01:26:36.500
in a wonderful visual manner that I find very

01:26:36.500 --> 01:26:41.199
entrancing to observe. And he sources every source

01:26:41.199 --> 01:26:44.159
in his description. In case you're like, I don't

01:26:44.159 --> 01:26:45.800
know about that, you can literally click on the

01:26:45.800 --> 01:26:48.060
thing and be like, oh, it came from the Department

01:26:48.060 --> 01:26:51.460
of Labor. Okay. Right. So I just wanted to shout

01:26:51.460 --> 01:26:54.880
that video out. It does have 5 .8 million views.

01:26:54.960 --> 01:26:57.819
So it's not to say this went under the radar.

01:26:58.600 --> 01:27:01.500
But it's to say that I think it's not reaching

01:27:01.500 --> 01:27:03.500
the people who need to hear it the most. The

01:27:03.500 --> 01:27:05.380
most. That's fair. And I think that's a really

01:27:05.380 --> 01:27:07.939
good look at it. Because 5 .8 million views is

01:27:07.939 --> 01:27:11.560
good. Yes. It's very good. Yes. But. You know

01:27:11.560 --> 01:27:15.100
when you're a country of what 350 million right

01:27:15.100 --> 01:27:20.100
and and this this video not to Glaze it too much,

01:27:20.100 --> 01:27:23.460
but in my opinion. It's better presented in research

01:27:23.460 --> 01:27:26.380
than most like Netflix documentaries that just

01:27:26.380 --> 01:27:31.000
Oh our our biggest presenter. He's never talked

01:27:31.000 --> 01:27:33.239
about it before it's just some fucking chode

01:27:33.239 --> 01:27:36.819
Right like no this this this is where it's at.

01:27:36.819 --> 01:27:39.399
Yeah greed is destroying the world the video

01:27:39.399 --> 01:27:43.100
on YouTube you should watch awesome well thank

01:27:43.100 --> 01:27:47.800
you for that and we are going to take our final

01:27:47.800 --> 01:27:52.720
break maybe a nap maybe something to eat might

01:27:52.720 --> 01:27:56.100
go for a walk wash the car do the laundry feed

01:27:56.100 --> 01:28:10.840

and then, ahem, world of weird news coming up

01:28:30.060 --> 01:28:34.239
as well. But first, let's, let's. chug down some

01:28:34.239 --> 01:28:38.739
beverage, and may technically not be beer, but,

01:28:38.840 --> 01:28:41.359
uh... Oh, but I think it technically is. Oh,

01:28:41.600 --> 01:28:44.260
alright. Inter -sante. Speak that truth. This

01:28:44.260 --> 01:28:47.340

Dad. Uh, it's... It's a brew, but it's brewed

01:28:58.819 --> 01:29:01.760
by I had to do some deep research because on

01:29:01.760 --> 01:29:04.439
Untapped which we mentioned earlier It's it's

01:29:04.439 --> 01:29:06.920
just an app on your phone that you can use and

01:29:06.920 --> 01:29:09.319
rank beers and they know where you had it What

01:29:09.319 --> 01:29:11.600
your flavor notes were and all that get in social

01:29:11.600 --> 01:29:13.899
circles, and then you know you just share that

01:29:13.899 --> 01:29:17.460
information Yeah, yeah, it's fun um and on the

01:29:17.460 --> 01:29:20.359
app It'll tell you like oh you drank cold snap

just says contract Brewery Under happy dad. So

01:29:27.010 --> 01:29:29.869
they just contracted a brewery and I had to go

01:29:29.869 --> 01:29:34.329
to the Green Bay Press Gazette To find out that

01:29:34.329 --> 01:29:37.750
it is made in Wisconsin by the minhas brewery

01:29:37.750 --> 01:29:39.770
is where they make it All right, that article

01:29:39.770 --> 01:29:42.090
is accurate as of 2021 So I'm not sure if that

01:29:42.090 --> 01:29:44.250
has changed but that is the most recent thing

01:29:44.250 --> 01:29:47.310
I can find out about it. So it's made in Wisconsin.

01:29:47.430 --> 01:29:52.590
I believe And it's grape flavor the style guide

01:29:52.590 --> 01:29:56.979

any occasion with its fruity and refreshing charm.

01:30:35.000 --> 01:30:38.159
Wow, that is something. Now what I did notice

01:30:38.159 --> 01:30:40.300
in all those different examples of when and how

01:30:40.300 --> 01:30:43.819
you might enjoy a happy dad, I noticed driving

01:30:43.819 --> 01:30:47.199
a school bus full of handicapable children up

01:30:47.199 --> 01:30:49.119
a mountainside was not one of them, and I'm kind

01:30:49.119 --> 01:30:51.560
of insulted by that. That seems like a strange

01:30:51.560 --> 01:30:54.329
exemption they made. Don't you think so? Yeah.

01:30:54.670 --> 01:30:57.569
We can write to whoever owns the company, which

01:30:57.569 --> 01:31:01.029
we kind of discovered might be a very disturbing

01:31:01.029 --> 01:31:05.729
person. I'd rather enjoy it. I don't know about

01:31:05.729 --> 01:31:09.430
you. Alrighty, we're drinking it out the can

01:31:09.430 --> 01:31:12.470
today, enjoying it in the A &M studios, and we'll

01:31:12.470 --> 01:31:15.109
give you a ranking on a scale from 0 to 5, and

01:31:15.109 --> 01:31:17.770
give you our flavor profile. Grape hard seltzer,

01:31:17.890 --> 01:31:24.250
Slantja. Smells incredible. I'm not getting the

01:31:24.250 --> 01:31:27.050
hate. I don't understand the hate on this. Not

01:31:27.050 --> 01:31:30.010
that they get a lot, but I mean, you see some

01:31:30.010 --> 01:31:34.409
of the rankings. It's good. It's clean. It's

01:31:34.409 --> 01:31:38.569
not overly grapey. I will say it is more aromatic

01:31:38.569 --> 01:31:42.609
than it is flavorful. Yeah. It smells like grape

01:31:42.609 --> 01:31:45.750
Kool -Aid. It smells like that classic Concord

01:31:45.750 --> 01:31:48.909
grape scent, that grape Kool -Aid flavor, but

01:31:48.909 --> 01:31:53.149
it's very light in the mouth. Super. It reminds

01:31:53.149 --> 01:31:55.649
me of something. I don't know what it is though.

01:31:55.949 --> 01:31:59.149
Ooh, I'll go back in for another sip It smells

01:31:59.149 --> 01:32:02.590
amazing Like for example when I gave my review

01:32:02.590 --> 01:32:06.270
or actually part of my top 10 list was the bang

01:32:06.270 --> 01:32:12.250
Purple haze yeah, that is very grapey. Yes. Yeah

01:32:12.250 --> 01:32:15.770
that flavor is full Yeah, that's very grapey.

01:32:16.130 --> 01:32:19.550
This is just a hint, but you get it Yes, but

01:32:19.550 --> 01:32:21.689
it's just a hint and it's just your palates clean.

01:32:21.689 --> 01:32:23.930
This is a very clean drink. You know what the

01:32:23.930 --> 01:32:26.949
note I'm getting? That I knew what it was and

01:32:26.949 --> 01:32:30.689
it just hit me Greek yogurt. Oh my god. What

01:32:30.689 --> 01:32:33.770
there's an I swear to God there's a note of Greek

01:32:33.770 --> 01:32:35.670
yogurt in there when it's first on your palate

01:32:35.670 --> 01:32:41.789
that kind of Acidic kind of holds your tongue

01:32:41.789 --> 01:32:44.699
for a while I swear to God that's in there because

01:32:44.699 --> 01:32:47.659
it's it's Concord grape on the nose and it hit

01:32:47.659 --> 01:32:49.640
my mouth. Yeah, and I'm like, that's Greek yogurt.

01:32:50.819 --> 01:32:55.039
I I like it. I like it. It says happy dad and

01:32:55.039 --> 01:33:00.479
I'm happy No false advertising there. I Love

01:33:00.479 --> 01:33:02.979
the scent and I too love grape flavored things.

01:33:02.979 --> 01:33:05.880
I love grapes. I do yeah I love grapes and I

01:33:05.880 --> 01:33:08.439
love grape flavored things as well. They make

01:33:08.439 --> 01:33:12.399
a I believe it's a Mountain Dew Kickstart that

01:33:12.399 --> 01:33:14.840
that's a grape flavor. Yeah, how many grapes?

01:33:17.779 --> 01:33:22.479
Sir, this is a lemonade stand But yeah, this

01:33:22.479 --> 01:33:25.300
this is not grape on the mouth like like the

01:33:25.300 --> 01:33:28.119
energy drinks or the sodas are yeah Well, yeah,

01:33:28.199 --> 01:33:31.100
cuz when you like grape crush very creepy. Yes.

01:33:31.359 --> 01:33:35.000
Yeah. Yeah I'm torn on how to rank this honestly

01:33:35.289 --> 01:33:37.829
Because when I took that first whiff I was like,

01:33:37.829 --> 01:33:40.470
oh this is gonna be good. That's that's Concord

01:33:40.470 --> 01:33:43.930
grape Wonder right there and then it hit my tongue

01:33:43.930 --> 01:33:47.390
and it's just like it's giving grape flavored

01:33:47.390 --> 01:33:51.630
Greek yogurt to me Yeah, I don't I don't get

01:33:51.630 --> 01:33:54.609
the Greek yogurt but to be fair I don't think

01:33:54.609 --> 01:33:57.550
I've ever eaten grape yogurt or no. Yeah Greek

01:33:57.550 --> 01:33:59.470
yogurt. Yeah or grape yogurt for that matter.

01:33:59.470 --> 01:34:04.229
Sure Hmm. I swear it's in there Yeah, like I

01:34:04.229 --> 01:34:07.069
do get a little bit of flavor on the palate,

01:34:07.109 --> 01:34:09.789
but it's not overbearing. It's just kind of there.

01:34:10.590 --> 01:34:13.090
It's just kind of grapey, but it's very mild.

01:34:14.229 --> 01:34:18.689
It is mild, yeah. I definitely see how you could

01:34:18.689 --> 01:34:20.829
pair this with like a hot dog if you're at like

01:34:20.829 --> 01:34:24.609
the Cubs game, you know? I have to be honest.

01:34:24.630 --> 01:34:28.130
I was also thinking of a pairing. But I was going

01:34:28.130 --> 01:34:32.489
to pair it with Tito's vodka. Call me what you

01:34:32.489 --> 01:34:36.909
will. This is to be fair, 5 % ABV. So if you

01:34:36.909 --> 01:34:40.609
wanted to bump that up to a 10, you could put

01:34:40.609 --> 01:34:44.649
two shots of vodka, glug, glug, glug, glug, glug,

01:34:44.649 --> 01:34:48.289
glug, glug. Exactly. Why not? Let's get a couple

01:34:48.289 --> 01:34:50.590
of shooters at your local store. Yeah, exactly.

01:34:51.430 --> 01:34:53.569
I wonder if you could almost pair it. You know

01:34:53.569 --> 01:34:57.590
those little pink Whitney? like lemonade, vodkas.

01:34:57.789 --> 01:35:00.289
I wonder if that would pair, because I, anytime

01:35:00.289 --> 01:35:03.829
I eat Skittles, which is rare, I'm not a big

01:35:03.829 --> 01:35:06.789
candy guy, I'm not a big Skittles guy, but anytime

01:35:06.789 --> 01:35:10.270
I eat Skittles, if you eat two grape Skittles

01:35:10.270 --> 01:35:13.470
paired with one lemon Skittle, the flavor is

01:35:13.470 --> 01:35:17.569
incredible. Interesting. So, grape and citrus

01:35:17.569 --> 01:35:21.250
do work. Do work together. Yeah. Keep that in

01:35:21.250 --> 01:35:23.170
mind. We're gonna have to keep that in mind.

01:35:24.329 --> 01:35:28.050
I like it. I like it. I like that it's not overly

01:35:28.050 --> 01:35:31.970
gravy. It's just so good on the nose. I'm definitely

01:35:31.970 --> 01:35:36.470
going to add aromatic to my flavor profile. I'm

01:35:36.470 --> 01:35:38.710
torn on how to rank it. I'm going to be honest.

01:35:39.609 --> 01:35:47.010
Really? Yeah. Hmm, very interesting. I was looking

01:35:47.010 --> 01:35:49.189
at your flavor profiles like they give you the

01:35:49.189 --> 01:35:51.890
top five, but then you can... In the app, you

01:35:51.890 --> 01:35:54.729
can kind of go in and there's like 150 other

01:35:54.729 --> 01:35:57.130
different. Oh, yeah. Probably even more than

01:35:57.130 --> 01:36:00.430
that. So I was going to add crisp because that

01:36:00.430 --> 01:36:03.189
was not on one of the top five. Crisp or clean,

01:36:03.350 --> 01:36:07.210
yeah. Yeah. So I was going to add that. So it's

01:36:07.210 --> 01:36:09.729
an alphabetical order, by the way. Yeah. So I'm

01:36:09.729 --> 01:36:13.789
looking at things like creamy, cranberry. Do

01:36:13.789 --> 01:36:17.350
you know I'm looking at two words and it says

01:36:17.350 --> 01:36:22.960
corn grits. Corn grits. That's hysterical because

01:36:22.960 --> 01:36:26.020
I want to know, because somebody created it.

01:36:26.020 --> 01:36:27.960
Yeah. Which means there's some beverage out there

01:36:27.960 --> 01:36:31.140
that reminds them of corn grits. Corn grits is

01:36:31.140 --> 01:36:34.739
such a specific thing. So specific. Now, to be

01:36:34.739 --> 01:36:41.479
fair, on this Grape Happy Dad Siltzer, any time

01:36:41.479 --> 01:36:44.479
you check into a beer and give it your ranking

01:36:44.479 --> 01:36:48.600
and your thoughts on it, It has five flavor profiles,

01:36:48.659 --> 01:36:51.640
which I believe are the most selected flavor

01:36:51.640 --> 01:36:55.779
profiles, and the five that were given to select

01:36:55.779 --> 01:36:59.500
were grapes, sweetener, balanced, creamy, and

01:36:59.500 --> 01:37:02.699
butyric. And we had to do some research as to

01:37:02.699 --> 01:37:04.319
what butyric means. So I looked at that word.

01:37:04.399 --> 01:37:06.039
I'm like, I don't think I've ever seen that word

01:37:06.039 --> 01:37:09.560
before. And it's based on butyric acid, which

01:37:09.560 --> 01:37:13.260
we did some research and seems that if something

01:37:13.260 --> 01:37:17.500
tastes, a drink tastes butyric, it can be acidic

01:37:17.500 --> 01:37:21.340
or fatty tasting, which to be fair might be that

01:37:21.340 --> 01:37:23.859
Greek yogurt note I'm getting. That you're getting.

01:37:24.239 --> 01:37:26.859
Just, yeah, that little bit of acidity in it.

01:37:26.859 --> 01:37:29.579
Yeah. Yep. Which is kind of interesting. That

01:37:29.579 --> 01:37:32.649
is interesting. Very interesting. I'm torn. I

01:37:32.649 --> 01:37:36.050
swear. I love it, and then there's that Greek

01:37:36.050 --> 01:37:38.189
yogurt note, and it's like, why is this here?

01:37:39.029 --> 01:37:42.810
I'm giving it a 2 .5 out of 5. 2 .5 out of 5.

01:37:42.949 --> 01:37:48.750
I am at a 3 .5. I'm at 3 .5. I do like it. I

01:37:48.750 --> 01:37:51.930
would definitely have that in the fridge on a

01:37:51.930 --> 01:37:54.550
hot day, and I think it'd just be super refreshing.

01:37:55.489 --> 01:37:59.180
So yeah, I do like it. And as always, we both

01:37:59.180 --> 01:38:03.880
have different palates, and I'm like IPA Belgians

01:38:03.880 --> 01:38:07.399
and Stouts, and you're Stouts and Lagers and

01:38:07.399 --> 01:38:10.699
Joyer. So take this with a grain of salt. If

01:38:10.699 --> 01:38:12.979
you combine our scores, that's an average of

01:38:12.979 --> 01:38:15.340
three out of five. So take that how you will.

01:38:15.340 --> 01:38:16.880
That's about right. Yeah. That's about right.

01:38:16.939 --> 01:38:19.800
And it's funny, because your two and a half,

01:38:19.920 --> 01:38:21.579
my three and a half comes out to a three, and

01:38:21.579 --> 01:38:25.220
I think the overall ranking was 3 .1. 3 .17,

01:38:25.220 --> 01:38:28.800
yeah. So that checks out. I unlocked a badge.

01:38:29.260 --> 01:38:33.119
I unlocked free THC seltzers. Wow. Well, you

01:38:33.119 --> 01:38:35.260
have fun with that. I can't do it. You can't

01:38:35.260 --> 01:38:36.920
do it. I'm not allowed. I'm unemployed. I can

01:38:36.920 --> 01:38:39.619
do it till the cows come home. I got a badge

01:38:39.619 --> 01:38:44.239

too. Yeah, I'm a home drinker. Well sometimes

01:39:21.670 --> 01:39:26.810
Sometimes we go where the people are because

01:39:26.810 --> 01:39:29.189
they're pretty and they're nice and I like to

01:39:29.189 --> 01:39:31.529
drink with them What's wrong with that? Anyway,

Women's Day shining a light on the amazing contributions.

01:39:59.439 --> 01:40:01.720
I swear I could have just read this. Did you?

01:40:01.979 --> 01:40:05.880
Yeah, I did. What the? Were you not there for

01:40:05.880 --> 01:40:10.020
that part? I was there for that part. Did you

01:40:10.020 --> 01:40:12.420
want me to say it again, or should we just pause

01:40:12.420 --> 01:40:14.619
the video? I can go back and play you when I

01:40:14.619 --> 01:40:19.220
say all that, or? I'm just going to say it. He

01:40:19.220 --> 01:40:21.100
started reading it. I'm like, oh, he's doing

01:40:21.100 --> 01:40:23.640
a bit. And then you kept going, and I was like,

01:40:23.939 --> 01:40:26.140
oh my god, did he not hear what I said all that?

01:40:26.300 --> 01:40:30.159
I did. I did. I didn't realize it until I got

01:40:30.159 --> 01:40:32.520
a couple sentences in, and I'm like, oh my god.

01:40:34.220 --> 01:40:39.159
To be fair, less than two weeks ago, I got smashed

01:40:39.159 --> 01:40:42.039
by a car. This is true. And I landed on my head.

01:40:42.060 --> 01:40:46.600
You got the scrambled eggs. So, you know, I'm

01:40:46.600 --> 01:40:50.619
not Dementia Don yet, but, you know, I struggle.

01:40:50.720 --> 01:40:55.600
Give him a break. I struggle. God damn it. I'm

No, I'm protesting. No, I'm not reading it. No.

No, I'm mad. Ah, freaking losing it. Absolutely

01:41:20.319 --> 01:41:23.539

01:41:42.250 --> 01:41:44.689
the last segment in the opening to this segment.

01:41:44.729 --> 01:41:47.850
I did! I know that I got. Oh, okay, you got that

01:41:47.850 --> 01:41:50.569
part? That I got. I was just looking at the clock.

01:41:50.789 --> 01:41:55.510
Oh, okay. Son of a bi - Anyway. Now it is time

01:41:55.510 --> 01:42:00.789
for the world of weird news to close out the

01:42:00.789 --> 01:42:05.470
show. Close out everything. Anyway, I'm gonna

01:42:05.470 --> 01:42:07.869
read mine because I'm probably gonna have a stroke.

01:42:09.449 --> 01:42:13.460
So... This one comes from the Rockingham, North

01:42:13.460 --> 01:42:16.100
Carolina County Sheriff's Department announced

01:42:16.100 --> 01:42:19.720
on February 20th that it had located a woman

01:42:19.720 --> 01:42:22.899
who went missing in Virginia on December 9th

01:42:22.899 --> 01:42:29.449
of 2001. Whoa. Michelle Hundley Smith, now 62,

01:42:30.289 --> 01:42:32.510
kissed her kids goodnight and left her home to

01:42:32.510 --> 01:42:35.109
do some Christmas shopping around 8 .30. She

01:42:35.109 --> 01:42:38.149
was not seen again. Yo. Detectives said they

01:42:38.149 --> 01:42:41.369
had received new information about her and made

01:42:41.369 --> 01:42:44.909
contact with her, but Smith requested that her

01:42:44.909 --> 01:42:53.250
whereabouts remain a secret. Yo, what? Whoa.

01:42:54.470 --> 01:42:57.739
Wow. She smooched the kids on the forehead and

01:42:57.739 --> 01:43:01.979
then bounced. She's like, yeah later later stinkies

01:43:01.979 --> 01:43:04.319
I'm done with you dirty diapers and you sick

01:43:04.319 --> 01:43:10.199
attitudes. Mama's gone now the Individual that

01:43:10.199 --> 01:43:14.079
wrote this article ended the story with Netflix.

01:43:14.079 --> 01:43:20.399
Are you getting this? Oh my god Not everyone

01:43:20.399 --> 01:43:25.149
needs a documentary not no no I just find it

01:43:25.149 --> 01:43:30.329
fascinating that 25 some odd years ago, she checked

01:43:30.329 --> 01:43:32.930
out. She checked. She had had enough. And you

01:43:32.930 --> 01:43:35.430
know what? That's actually a better ending. You

01:43:35.430 --> 01:43:39.930
see these tragic stories sometimes. Like my girlfriend

01:43:39.930 --> 01:43:42.869
will fall asleep listening to these true crime

01:43:42.869 --> 01:43:45.590
stories. And there's always these really disturbing

01:43:45.590 --> 01:43:50.449
ones of mothers who just snap. They just snap

01:43:50.449 --> 01:43:53.590
and they kill their children. and the husband

01:43:53.590 --> 01:43:57.229
finds the dead kids, and the wife is just like,

01:43:57.430 --> 01:43:59.409
I don't know what happened. Right, they play

01:43:59.409 --> 01:44:04.550
stupid. Right. And it's just like, I understand

01:44:04.550 --> 01:44:07.810
how, like we talk about mental health, mental

01:44:07.810 --> 01:44:10.949
wellness all the time on the show, but to just

01:44:10.949 --> 01:44:14.010
snap and kill your kids, at least Homegirl was

01:44:14.010 --> 01:44:17.920
just like, I think I've had enough. I'm a bounce.

01:44:18.100 --> 01:44:20.319
I'm a bounce. I'm a bounce. And you know what?

01:44:20.319 --> 01:44:23.199
That might just be the happy ending. It might

01:44:23.199 --> 01:44:24.880
be. Because otherwise it could have been a true

01:44:24.880 --> 01:44:28.920
crime story. That's right. So bless this woman.

01:44:29.319 --> 01:44:32.520
Hopefully her life away from those dastardly

01:44:32.520 --> 01:44:35.100
dumb kids. Because I assume they're pieces of

01:44:35.100 --> 01:44:38.340
shit. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

01:44:38.439 --> 01:44:40.840
That was a joke. I'm not because fuck them kids.

01:44:40.880 --> 01:44:45.460
But still. But still. Okay. Get this and I'm

01:44:45.460 --> 01:44:47.699
gonna take it from a different perspective Think

01:44:47.699 --> 01:44:50.720
of all of the manpower and the hours and the

01:44:50.720 --> 01:44:54.239
taxpayer dollars spent to find her. I just bounced

01:44:54.239 --> 01:44:57.739
right. She's like I'm out She could have left

01:44:57.739 --> 01:45:00.220
a note. Don't look for me. Don't call the cops

01:45:00.220 --> 01:45:04.619
about yeah, this is true But then again if I

01:45:04.619 --> 01:45:07.159
don't know it's so it's so tough because if someone

01:45:07.159 --> 01:45:10.840
wants to disappear and you leave a breadcrumb

01:45:11.119 --> 01:45:14.600
I mean you can hope that the husband or the children

01:45:14.600 --> 01:45:17.560
won't go out and search for her But if she if

01:45:17.560 --> 01:45:20.479
she just wanted to disappear disappear, right?

01:45:20.899 --> 01:45:23.159
Maybe you just you just bounce and you go work

01:45:23.159 --> 01:45:25.460
in some small town in South Dakota and you're

01:45:25.460 --> 01:45:28.399
like You'd change your name right because I mean

01:45:28.399 --> 01:45:30.520
witness protection program is not super easy

01:45:30.520 --> 01:45:34.140
to get into Well, yeah, I mean it's not but in

01:45:34.140 --> 01:45:37.460
the same sense to imagine imagine all the interviews

01:45:37.460 --> 01:45:40.840
that that Dad had to sit through with the police

01:45:40.840 --> 01:45:45.859
and be like, where's your wife? Well, I came

01:45:45.859 --> 01:45:49.000
here to find that out. Where were you at 1137?

01:45:49.359 --> 01:45:51.039
Right, because the spouse is the first suspect.

01:45:51.140 --> 01:45:53.899
Well, I got home and then I, where did you get

01:45:53.899 --> 01:45:56.859
home from? Imagine all of that that he had to

01:45:56.859 --> 01:45:59.840
go through. This is true. And she just bounced.

01:46:00.039 --> 01:46:02.060
She just bounced. It makes you, like if you're

01:46:02.060 --> 01:46:03.539
that dude, it makes you want to go to the police

01:46:03.539 --> 01:46:05.460
station and just cross your arms and just stare

01:46:05.460 --> 01:46:09.300
at them. You motherfuckers. Yep. I need to go

01:46:09.300 --> 01:46:13.579
through all this. Right. Ah, yeah. Man, I don't

01:46:13.579 --> 01:46:15.600
know. Like I said, she should have just left

01:46:15.600 --> 01:46:17.819
a message. Hey, don't look for me. I'm bouncing.

01:46:18.079 --> 01:46:21.579
See ya. See ya. Best of luck. Best of luck. I

01:46:21.579 --> 01:46:23.279
see your point. I definitely, definitely see

01:46:23.279 --> 01:46:26.100
your point. Yeah, man. I feel for that dad, not

01:46:26.100 --> 01:46:28.220
only because he had to like pick up and be like

01:46:28.220 --> 01:46:29.819
super dad now. Single father, right. You know,

01:46:29.939 --> 01:46:31.640
and that could have just as easily been a super

01:46:31.640 --> 01:46:33.899
mother, but in this particular story, it's a

01:46:33.899 --> 01:46:35.500
super dad and he'd be like, oh, he's probably

01:46:35.500 --> 01:46:37.460
got to work. Now he's got to take care of these

01:46:37.460 --> 01:46:39.899
kids. Being a single dad with no heads up is

01:46:39.899 --> 01:46:42.829
also a stressor, so. That's a stressor. Yeah.

01:46:43.029 --> 01:46:44.710
Plus the fact he's thinking, oh my god, what

01:46:44.710 --> 01:46:47.770
happened to her. Right. She got kidnapped. Exactly.

01:46:47.949 --> 01:46:49.649
You know, Mexican cartel. Am I gonna get a ransom

01:46:49.649 --> 01:46:51.670
note or? Right. What am I getting? Am I getting

01:46:51.670 --> 01:46:53.350
a finger in the mail? What's gonna, you know,

01:46:53.390 --> 01:46:56.010
you just don't know. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know,

01:46:56.130 --> 01:47:01.430
man. Crazy. Crazy. I agree. My story here. in

01:47:01.430 --> 01:47:04.210
the world of weird news, comes from the Tampa

01:47:04.210 --> 01:47:10.409
Bay Times. Sounds like Florida man. Florida man.

01:47:10.729 --> 01:47:13.949
Breaks into home, cooks meal, tells homeowner,

01:47:14.170 --> 01:47:20.090
go back to sleep. Oh no. Oh my God. Here's the

01:47:20.090 --> 01:47:23.750
subtitle. The 19 year old Marine was drunk at

01:47:23.750 --> 01:47:28.569
the time, deputy said. That's how it starts usually.

01:47:29.689 --> 01:47:33.229
Oh shit. Here we go from the Tampa Bay Times.

01:47:33.689 --> 01:47:36.270
A 19 year old Florida man was arrested last Tuesday

01:47:36.270 --> 01:47:38.210
after breaking into a home and cooking himself

01:47:38.210 --> 01:47:41.229
a meal, deputies said. According to the Pinellas

01:47:41.229 --> 01:47:44.529
County Sheriff's Office, Gavin Crim, an active

01:47:44.529 --> 01:47:48.189
duty Marine living in Palm Harbor, entered James

01:47:48.189 --> 01:47:52.770
Appelt's home in Huntington Boulevard in Safety

01:47:52.770 --> 01:47:55.890
Harbor through an unlocked back door around 4

01:47:55.890 --> 01:47:59.399
a .m. according to his arrest report. He made

01:47:59.399 --> 01:48:02.380
his way to the kitchen where he cooked and ate

01:48:02.380 --> 01:48:06.100
food belonging to Appelt. Deputies said Crimm

01:48:06.100 --> 01:48:09.220
was under the influence of alcohol at the time.

01:48:09.520 --> 01:48:14.479
Hey, no kidding. Uh -huh. Appelt told the deputies

01:48:14.479 --> 01:48:17.680
he confronted Crimm, who told him, quote, go

01:48:17.680 --> 01:48:25.520
back to sleep and kept eating. Appelt told Oh,

01:48:33.420 --> 01:48:42.470
no. burglary of an occupied dwelling. He was

01:48:42.470 --> 01:48:45.310
booked into the county jail and released the

01:48:45.310 --> 01:48:48.810
next day after posting the $1 ,000 bail. According

01:48:48.810 --> 01:48:52.470
to the Department of Defense, Crim had been a

01:48:52.470 --> 01:48:55.810
member of the Marine Corps since June 11, 2018.

01:48:56.489 --> 01:49:00.029
Oh, wow. Yikers, big dog. Wow, kisses, drink

01:49:00.029 --> 01:49:03.890
on. Gets his drink on. I'm sure this house has

01:49:03.890 --> 01:49:08.390
food. I'll lie myself in. Hey look man, listen

01:49:08.390 --> 01:49:12.949
to what I say. So I'm in a house. It's not my

01:49:12.949 --> 01:49:16.750
house. Look at the hungry. But is this a marine?

01:49:18.109 --> 01:49:21.869
Semper fi - Semper fi - Semper fi - I was saying,

01:49:22.409 --> 01:49:26.390
I cook. For you, but for me. Nah, go back to

01:49:26.390 --> 01:49:29.310
sleep. My god damn, I'm half as eating this meal.

01:49:29.510 --> 01:49:33.170
I was just, you got sage? Where's the rosemary?

01:49:33.369 --> 01:49:37.170
Where's the rosemary? No, not your wife. It's

01:49:37.170 --> 01:49:40.390
in the spice. The Marine Corps is just like,

01:49:40.409 --> 01:49:42.590
you should have just kept eating the crayons.

01:49:43.149 --> 01:49:45.550
I know, right? It's a god damn it. It's a bad

01:49:45.550 --> 01:49:47.689
look for us, Crim. It's so much better when you're

01:49:47.689 --> 01:49:50.489
sitting in Afghanistan eating that whole 64...

01:49:50.489 --> 01:49:54.449
Yeah, the Crayola pack. 64 Crayola pack. I like

01:49:54.449 --> 01:49:57.829
the yellow flavor. The yellow one is the sun.

01:49:58.550 --> 01:50:00.869
Yeah. Thank you, Krim. Very good. Yeah, very

01:50:00.869 --> 01:50:03.949
good. Very good. Just tap him on the head. He's

01:50:03.949 --> 01:50:07.090
doing good, buddy. Oh, that's crazy. What a crazy

01:50:07.090 --> 01:50:10.149
story. What a crazy way to end. It almost makes

01:50:10.149 --> 01:50:12.890
me wonder, like, what did he make for the meal?

01:50:13.510 --> 01:50:15.189
I don't know. How elaborate was the cooking?

01:50:15.850 --> 01:50:18.010
Wouldn't that be something? Yeah, like, did the

01:50:18.010 --> 01:50:20.979
homeowner wake up and he's like... Hmm Italian

01:50:20.979 --> 01:50:24.800
cuisine at this hour He comes down scared. He's

01:50:24.800 --> 01:50:26.800
scared shitless is bigger. I'm like a chef's

01:50:26.800 --> 01:50:31.119
hat on He's like I have done a rack of lamb along

01:50:31.119 --> 01:50:34.939
with mint jelly and these garlic potatoes Enjoy

01:50:34.939 --> 01:50:40.119
the homeowners like the lamb is fucking raw Where's

01:50:40.119 --> 01:50:45.920
the lime sauce? I've eaten this! It was only

01:50:45.920 --> 01:50:49.020
then that he realized he'd broken into Gordon

01:50:49.020 --> 01:50:55.850
Ramsay's home! You feed me this slop! And then

01:50:55.850 --> 01:50:57.829
right then he's like, oh my god, I gotta go back

01:50:57.829 --> 01:51:00.050
to Afghanistan. I gotta get out of here. I think

01:51:00.050 --> 01:51:02.670
I'm gonna barf. Look how raw it is. Look how

01:51:02.670 --> 01:51:05.590
raw it is. Mint jelly? I've eaten this. Where

01:51:05.590 --> 01:51:08.789
did you get this mint jelly from, Aldi? You got

01:51:08.789 --> 01:51:11.069
it from a can? From a can? You could make it

01:51:11.069 --> 01:51:15.630
at home. Oh my god. Oh, that's good. It's fucking

01:51:15.630 --> 01:51:20.890
frozen. It's frozen. Bollocks! Ah, so funny.

01:51:21.210 --> 01:51:24.310
Oh, Jesus. What a way to end. God bless. Well,

01:51:24.529 --> 01:51:27.029
end, but not end Season 5, because as I said,

01:51:28.170 --> 01:51:30.569
this is the... usually it's 10 episodes, and

01:51:30.569 --> 01:51:33.670
this is the end of Season 5. Typically, it goes

01:51:33.670 --> 01:51:35.909
a quarter. That's about right. So it's like 10

01:51:35.909 --> 01:51:39.829
episodes, ideally two interviews, but, you know,

01:51:39.850 --> 01:51:41.729
those come and go when they happen, you know,

01:51:41.829 --> 01:51:45.149
when scheduling allows. Yes. But yeah, the Markbo

01:51:45.149 --> 01:51:48.270
show itself is 10 per season. Yes, it is. And

01:51:48.270 --> 01:51:51.770
so this upcoming interview, which is going to

01:51:51.770 --> 01:51:55.550
take place next week, is going to be with Ava

01:51:55.550 --> 01:52:00.890
Rainwater. She's a local singer -songwriter who

01:52:00.890 --> 01:52:04.350
is not even scratch the surface of her talents,

01:52:04.449 --> 01:52:07.750
and her voice is amazing. So she's agreed to

01:52:07.750 --> 01:52:10.689
come on to the Fireside Chats portion of the

01:52:10.689 --> 01:52:13.909
Mark Mo Show, which is usually about a 25 to

01:52:13.909 --> 01:52:18.960
35 minute interview. but she has her own music,

01:52:19.159 --> 01:52:23.720
so... Ha, copyright, middle finger to you. Right.

01:52:24.300 --> 01:52:26.859
Unless she gets a label and the label's like,

01:52:26.939 --> 01:52:29.220
hello, Markmo Show. Yeah, right. Tink, tink,

01:52:29.239 --> 01:52:31.399
tink on the glass. Tink, tink, tink. Gosh, damn

01:52:31.399 --> 01:52:35.199
it. Damn it, we can't win. Rainwater, give us

01:52:35.199 --> 01:52:38.319
an out. Throw us a bone, come on. But no, she's

01:52:38.319 --> 01:52:39.579
going to sit down, she's going to play a few

01:52:39.579 --> 01:52:43.859
of her songs, and we're going to not only introduce

01:52:43.859 --> 01:52:48.779
all of Valpo, Indiana, to Ava, but hopefully

01:52:48.779 --> 01:52:50.439
everybody across... of the country and around

01:52:50.439 --> 01:52:53.439
the world. Malaysia, Russia, India. Absolutely.

01:52:53.500 --> 01:52:56.619
Curacao. Amazing voice. Can't wait to get her

01:52:56.619 --> 01:52:59.899
on the show. And she's a good peeps, man. And

01:52:59.899 --> 01:53:01.760
that's kind of what we talked about a little

01:53:01.760 --> 01:53:05.140
bit earlier in the show. You find good people

01:53:05.140 --> 01:53:06.579
with talent. I don't mind putting them on the

01:53:06.579 --> 01:53:10.659
air. And if it helps, great. If it doesn't, hey,

01:53:10.739 --> 01:53:15.039
we give a shot. But in this case, I don't think

01:53:15.039 --> 01:53:18.140
this will be wasted time at all. It is going

01:53:18.140 --> 01:53:20.640
to be a really good interview. And I'm looking

01:53:20.640 --> 01:53:23.560
forward to it. And if you're listening and you

01:53:23.560 --> 01:53:27.479
are in Valpo or the region, keep an ear out,

01:53:27.600 --> 01:53:32.420
keep an eye out for her because I think it's

01:53:32.420 --> 01:53:34.260
going to be some good stuff coming up really

01:53:34.260 --> 01:53:36.779
soon. It'll be bueno. So maybe she's more of

01:53:36.779 --> 01:53:41.180
the bridge from season five to season six. It's

01:53:41.180 --> 01:53:42.760
going to be some good stuff. And then, of course,

01:53:42.760 --> 01:53:45.560
we always take a week off of the Mark Mo show

01:53:45.560 --> 01:53:48.460
at the end of every season, which also coincides

01:53:48.460 --> 01:53:52.039
with St. Patrick's Day weekend. Because in Chicago,

01:53:52.039 --> 01:53:55.159
you don't celebrate just for a day on St. Patrick's

01:53:55.159 --> 01:53:58.520
Day. You celebrate pretty much the whole month.

01:53:58.939 --> 01:54:01.119
Yeah. Yeah. Give or take. Give or take. You go

01:54:01.119 --> 01:54:03.760
hard on the week, but you also get the whole

01:54:03.760 --> 01:54:07.359
month. You get the whole month. So for us, it's

01:54:07.359 --> 01:54:09.779
pretty much the weekend before St. Patty's Day.

01:54:10.260 --> 01:54:13.380
That we have a good time on Saturday. We go to

01:54:13.380 --> 01:54:16.739
downtown Chicago throw back a few pints sing

01:54:16.739 --> 01:54:21.300
some folk Irish tunes and listen to some bagpipers

01:54:21.300 --> 01:54:24.079
and have a good time and then Sunday is the south

01:54:24.079 --> 01:54:28.039
side of Chicago very Irish II part of the city

01:54:28.039 --> 01:54:33.520
and Yeah, that is That's a parade and beer and

01:54:33.520 --> 01:54:35.979
I know it's gonna be weird when I say it but

01:54:35.979 --> 01:54:40.039
pizza now for those of you that know you know

01:54:40.039 --> 01:54:42.539
most of you are like pizza what this fucking

01:54:42.539 --> 01:54:46.640
guy you know you gotta okay let him educate you

01:54:46.640 --> 01:54:50.779
yeah so i'm really let's see i i'm i'm actually

01:54:50.779 --> 01:54:53.340
looking at the time of our podcast because it

01:54:53.340 --> 01:54:57.279
could take a minute i there's a thing in chicago

01:54:57.279 --> 01:55:02.100
called tavern style pizza now deep dish is quote

01:55:02.100 --> 01:55:05.000
unquote chicago pizza Now, I like a good deep

01:55:05.000 --> 01:55:07.699
dish once in a while. It's fantastic. You can't

01:55:07.699 --> 01:55:09.859
eat it all the time. It'd be 500 pounds. Yeah.

01:55:10.380 --> 01:55:12.500
But once in a while, usually when tourists come

01:55:12.500 --> 01:55:14.180
into town, oh, we want Chicago style pizza and

01:55:14.180 --> 01:55:17.779
they think deep dish. Real Chicago style pizza

01:55:17.779 --> 01:55:21.439
is tavern style pizza, very thin crust, circle,

01:55:21.699 --> 01:55:24.680
cut in squares. And yes, you do nail those little

01:55:24.680 --> 01:55:30.460
corner pieces immediately. That's what real Chicago

01:55:30.460 --> 01:55:32.560
pizza is, especially when you get out into the

01:55:32.560 --> 01:55:35.560
neighborhoods. Fox's is a south side pizza place,

01:55:35.760 --> 01:55:37.260
not sponsored, soon to be sponsored, hopefully.

01:55:37.899 --> 01:55:39.840
Actually, no, because we have a new sponsor.

01:55:40.159 --> 01:55:42.220
Oh, new information about that. We have a new

01:55:42.220 --> 01:55:46.859
sponsor. It is a local place in Valparaiso. And

01:55:46.859 --> 01:55:49.000
when we kick off season six, we're going to introduce

01:55:49.000 --> 01:55:53.079
you to them. So that's a teaser. Ha ha. But Fox's

01:55:53.079 --> 01:55:55.939
is on the south side of Chicago. So when we get

01:55:55.939 --> 01:55:58.560
to the south side of Chicago, there's usually

01:55:58.560 --> 01:56:01.520
two conversations. We're getting Fox's pizza.

01:56:01.899 --> 01:56:05.619
pops beef. That's it. That's the conversation.

01:56:06.060 --> 01:56:09.260
Right. Once in a while Janssen's drive -in because

01:56:09.260 --> 01:56:11.340
the cool 1950s drive -in kind of thing and their

01:56:11.340 --> 01:56:15.119
food's pretty good, but mostly beef or pizza.

01:56:15.840 --> 01:56:19.739
Pizza is exquisite. It's great. Very thin. Cornmeal

01:56:19.739 --> 01:56:23.159
crust on the bottom. Yep. And the sausage is

01:56:23.159 --> 01:56:25.760
great. However they make the sausage, it's amazing.

01:56:26.739 --> 01:56:30.079
Great, great pizza. And so, because we don't

01:56:30.079 --> 01:56:32.060
get back there that often, when we're there,

01:56:32.619 --> 01:56:35.060
we head on down to the pub, we grab ourselves

01:56:35.060 --> 01:56:37.539
a big ass pizza, and then they usually have this

01:56:37.539 --> 01:56:39.399
little old guy who, God, he's gotta be pushing

01:56:39.399 --> 01:56:41.560
80, and he gets in there with his little squeeze

01:56:41.560 --> 01:56:44.079
box, and he sings all these old Irish tunes.

01:56:44.579 --> 01:56:46.760
It's just a vibe. It is. It's a vibe. It's a

01:56:46.760 --> 01:56:50.180
time. It's a great time. So, if you're ever there,

01:56:50.479 --> 01:56:53.000
check out Fox's Pizza. There's other good spots,

01:56:53.340 --> 01:56:58.300
too. Rose Angelina, Palermo's, Nicco Vito's.

01:56:58.500 --> 01:57:00.840
You gotta get in line quick, it fills up. Right.

01:57:00.960 --> 01:57:03.279
We always leave the parade early to make sure

01:57:03.279 --> 01:57:05.100
we get to Fox's, because otherwise you're not

01:57:05.100 --> 01:57:07.539
getting in the door. It's a very tiny pub. But

01:57:07.539 --> 01:57:10.380
it's a good time. Yes. Damn right. It is definitely

01:57:10.380 --> 01:57:13.380
a good time. Anyway, we're up against it. Yep.

01:57:13.779 --> 01:57:16.460
Later. We're up against it. See ya. So, bye bye.
