This week on the Donut Box podcast, hear about how Micah almost made me go blind when he
sprayed me in the face with pepper spray.
Oh man.
And how we stole a gallon or two of milk from the homeless ministry because of that.
Then we're going to talk about some funny arrest stories in the jail report and then
followed up with the donut hole, which I'm going to leave that a little bit of a secret.
We're going to give Chris a little bit of a quiz on one of his favorite hobbies.
How well will he know it?
We're going to find out.
And then on what prize my donuts hear about how I have been with southerners and the way
they do things.
Is it really southern hospitality?
Are they just being a jerk to your face in a nice way?
Find out all about donuts.
Yeah, yeah, we all know that.
But you know, there's that.
We got a few more segments in there, but you won't want to miss those.
Go ahead, take a ride with us.
Let's get started.
Hi, I'm Micah.
And I'm Chris.
And we've been friends for over 20 years.
Surprisingly, we haven't killed each other yet.
Years ago, we started our own variety show and it sucked.
Now that we're adults, we decided to give it another try.
And you know what it says like in the movie?
Life is like a box of donuts.
You never know which one's going to be the next one.
Wait a second.
It's chocolates.
Life is like a box of chocolates.
You never know what you're going to get.
Oh, right.
Okay.
Well, let's start the show.
This is the Dona Box podcast.
Well, Christopher, we are back for another episode here of the Dona Box podcast.
Welcome.
If you're a first timer, thank you for joining us.
If you are returning, oh, gee, as we'd like to call you over here at Trashcan in the Dona
Box podcast.
Thank you so much.
And welcome back, man.
We've got a episode chock full of all sorts of things.
Chris, how are you feeling this week, man?
It's a brand new year.
We haven't seen you guys since last year.
Oh, my gosh.
Don't you love it when people say that?
I don't know.
It's always kind of, I know.
It's always fun to say it, but when people say it to me, I'm like, oh gosh, I don't know.
It's always one of those things.
It's like one of those double-headed things.
I don't know.
Yeah.
It's going to be a great episode.
We're excited for what's coming in 2025.
If you're listening on Spotify, go check us out on YouTube, Trashcan Network, or Dona
Box podcast.
That's D-O-U-G-H-N-U-T Box podcast.
And see our wonderful faces because we're now live and live in color.
Yeah.
Live and in color.
Yeah, exactly.
So it's been a great run here in season four so far, but we're just getting started.
So on this episode, we're going to start with our old-fashioned donut, which is a story
from our past, which by the way, didn't mention it before, but we're on a regular scheduled
program and our regular scheduled structure here.
So I think they get it at this point, but old-fashioned donut, story from our past.
So Chris, this one's a little bit of an interesting one.
As you alluded to in the intro, I almost blinded you.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
That's the reason we have to wear glasses now.
I'm just kidding.
Yeah, right?
We're going to have to wear glasses before then.
Well, you know, you see he's got contacts.
It's like we should pull up the picture where you had the eyepatch and be like, no, it's
because of the mic up for the eyepatch.
And I'm joking.
That was way before that even happened.
So yeah, that was way before.
Anyways, so if you've listened to the Donalbox podcast before, we spent a lot of time in
church.
So that was the biggest thing.
We spent a lot of time in church together.
And so this event where Chris got pepper sprayed by yours truly happened at church of all places.
So we decided, I mean, shoulders straight.
Listen, it is what it is.
So at the time to give a little backstory, Chris wanted to be a police officer.
And so he was going through what is called the Explorer program.
It was through the county's police department and it was for high school students who wanted
to be in, you know, wanted to go into the academy and be a police officer in the future.
So they would ride along and things like that.
So he really wanted to.
So I just remember we were hanging out at church.
And at this point, Chris was, he had those Explorer group on that Thursday.
So typically he couldn't come to church on Thursdays, but he would come after he was
done and kind of hang out for a little bit after we were done as well.
And so I remember we were sitting there and there was this one gal and it was actually
the same gal again, if you've been listening, it was the same gal who tried to lure me into
the Popeyes and Chris saved me from her.
It was the same, same gal.
And so if you haven't heard that story, go back a few episodes and listen to that one.
But anyways, so we were sitting there.
I don't know how it came up.
I think it was just on her key chain.
Do you remember how it came up?
Yeah, it was on her key chain.
And I remember like looking at it and I was like, oh, like pepper spray.
And I remember asking her like, why do you have pepper spray?
And she was like, oh, like, because I'm a girl and like, in case anybody tries to like
steal me or attack me, then I can pepper spray them.
And I was like, you know what?
I don't know why I had this bright idea.
But I was like, you know what?
I know in the academy, you're going to have to get tased and you're going to have to get
pepper spray.
You know what?
I kind of want to know what it feels like so I can get out of the way.
So whenever like, I actually have to go through it, I can be mentally ready and like, all
right.
So I'm like, okay.
So I don't know why she let us borrow her pepper spray.
Like, I think we just asked and we were just like, hey, can we have pepper spray for a
minute?
Can we have a pepper spray?
She was like, yeah, sure.
And so I remember like, it was after church.
I remember us going to like the top of the hill and you've heard us talk in other episodes
about Jay Rizzle and why we did not become friends with him later on.
And this is one of the reasons why, because this guy could not keep his lips shut for
nothing.
So this was after the camping incident where he got us caught because we played a prank.
And so I remember him, we were being like, hey, let's try to pepper spray each other
and see what it feels like.
Like Michael, you're gonna pepper spray me.
So he went and told him, he's a guy's guy's gonna pepper spray each other.
Like you guys got to come watch.
So we're just hyping up everybody, everybody in the whole place.
By there was even one point, I think he was like yelling in the parking lot like everybody,
they're gonna pepper spray each other.
It was it was one of those things like he alerted just everybody.
So a small crowd gathered began gathering.
I remember the whole youth group.
So we went to the top of the hill where our cars were because I was like, I'm not going
to do this in front of the leaders where people get C.
So I remember like us going back and forth and I was like, okay, I'm going to put my
arm like that, like over my eyes.
So it doesn't get in my eyes.
I just wanted to like feel it on my skin to see what was going to happen.
So I remember like, Micah sprays me and like, nothing happens.
Like, and I'm like, okay, like nothing's happening.
Like my skin doesn't hurt nothing.
And did I did I spray you?
Did you like?
Yeah, you sprayed me with the arm up with the arm up just once, but like you sprayed me.
And I think if I remember correctly, like we did it a few times, like I was so I sprayed
you again.
And it was it was one of those things.
I think she got mad because she was like, you've got to like waste all of it or something
like that.
And so finally it was like, well, maybe it's not the skin because we had sprayed each other
enough times to where it was like, okay, maybe it's not the skin, maybe it's the eyes.
And so I remember you saying, okay, I'm going to I'm going to what did you say?
You were like, I'm going to get just like a little bit.
No, you said spray it on my arm and I'm going to rub it off and I'm going to rub a little
bit into my eyes and see what it's like.
And what ended up happening was I sprayed him and he pulls his hand off too far and it just
went and I sprayed a lot this time because it was supposed to be enough to where he was
supposed to get it and like wipe it into his eyes.
And so like it like drained into his eyes.
It was quite a bit that drained into his eyes.
It was hurting pretty bad.
So if you've ever like had a really bad sunburn, it was like, I remember yeah, for our cop friend
Jamie like telling us like, it's like sticking your head in a french fryer.
And whenever like the pain started, I was like, yeah, it's like, it's like a really,
really, really bad sunburn.
Like really, really bad.
And you do feel the effects of the skin like on your skin when water hits it, which is
the next part here because so we thought we were prepared us a smart young men and we
had a bunch of bottles of water lined up on Chris's viewing and we thought, okay, because
what we saw and the real bit was we watch cops and things like that all the time.
But what we saw in cops was what always happens.
They pepper spray them and they take bunch of water and they wash your eyes out.
Right.
Like it's not a pleasant experience, but you figure like, okay, that's the thing to
do.
Oh no, that makes it worse.
And so here Chris is.
And so we're like, we're like taking me.
So like he's doing the Tim Tebow, like taking a knee and he's like looking up, you know,
and I just reported it.
Once that stuff like gets in your, then it starts getting your nose.
So then you're like starting to cough.
Yeah.
Like, yeah, like coughing.
And I just remember pouring it on his face and like trying to get in his eyes and I just
remember him like being like, Oh my God.
And like he think about it.
Like we were, we were really, really good Christian boys who didn't use the Lord's name in vain.
So when he's like, Oh my God.
You know, I, that's what I'm like, Oh man, it hurts.
Yeah.
And so I remember just trying to figure out, okay, what, what do we do next?
What do we do next?
And so I'm just going to stop here.
Christopher, did you ever think you were going to go blind at any point like during this
process?
No, I didn't know.
I just remember being like, okay, it's going to be over.
Like I can't open my eyes or whatever.
And so like somehow I think Michael looked it up on his phone and he was like milk, like
buttermilk helps.
Like something happened.
But I remember Michael like went to go like, go, Oh no, this was, I could tell you this
was in the days before phones, like smartphones.
I had to run inside and there was the computer.
It was the computer we used to run the lyrics on and the youth group.
And I looked it up on the internet right quick, like what does for pepper spray?
They were like milk.
And right in the back, back there was the, was the homeless ministry.
And in the mornings, like, I think this was, this had to be a, no, this was Thursday, but
I think Friday or something, they were doing something.
And I just remember they had a gallon of milk and I just went out there and I think we dumped
that entire gallon of milk on your head.
So while Michael was going to get the milk, I guess one of the kids got really concerned,
like really worried that I was going to go blind.
So they went and found one of the leaders.
And so like, I was like, Oh man, like I'm, I'm an eyeshet.
So I don't know who's around me.
I know Mike is there.
Like that's it.
And I remember like, I just remember like while the milk is like going on my eyes, I remember
the ones who was like, why did you guys do that?
That was really stupid.
You shouldn't have been doing that.
And I was like, I was like, yeah, I know it was dumb.
I was like, I'll do it again.
I don't care.
And like, I already have beef with this particular leader.
No, you know what you said to you finished off with get out of my freaking face.
Oh yeah.
Get out of my freaking face.
And then I didn't know that our leader Tony was there and he was like, that's when he was
like, well, you could have been really, he was like, that was a really dumb thing.
He was like, you could have gone blind, like this and that.
I remember being like, okay, I know the biggest thing was like, oh crap, are we going to get
sued?
Like, oh man, like they were really upset.
Like, and again, being a youth leader, like I would probably be upset too.
So it was like, I get it.
But I was like, you can chastise me after, but like right now, while I'm in pain, like
let's not do that.
Right.
And then like, like the milk is like working everything.
And so ladies and gentlemen, if you ever accidentally get pepper sprayed or anything, or even a
sunburn, like milk is a great way to go.
Like it was, it helped.
So I remember like I drove my car and I was like, I can't drive home.
Like Micah's got a right home.
So he calls my mom and was like, uh, miss Debbie, I got something to tell you Chris is okay.
But like, there's been a little bit of an accident and my mom was like, were y'all drag racing
in the parking lot or what happened?
And my mom, and he's like, no, he's like, I sprayed Chris with pepper spray.
And like my mom started laughing and she was like, Oh, okay.
She was like, that's all.
And, uh, he was like, yeah, he's like, I'm taking him home.
It's like, okay.
Like, and my mom was pretty cool about it.
Like she thought it was funny.
Like she did.
I didn't get in trouble or anything.
Yeah, I just remember getting to your house and it was interesting because by the time
we got to your house, it was about a 20, 30 minute drive, something like that.
Maybe, I don't know.
It was probably around that long.
But by the time we got to your house, like you were fine.
I remember like your eyes were fine.
In fact, you drove me back home.
I drove Micah back home.
But no, I remember going in the house and then like getting, getting you inside and she
was just still laughing.
She was like, I thought that you guys had gotten into like a drag racing accident or
like had accidentally hit somebody in the parking lot or like something had happened.
And so when you told me that it was pepper spray and she just started laughing.
She thought that was the funny.
She was not as she wasn't mad.
I didn't get in any trouble.
Micah didn't get in any trouble.
So listen, I'm pretty sure she was just at that point that is Micah Christian Anagin's
like, I think that was just.
I was leaving to go to Texas pretty soon.
So that's also why I kind of like was like, I don't freaking care.
Get out of my freaking face to that leader.
Cause I was like, I'm not even going to see you anyway.
Like no more like I didn't, when I tell you I didn't care anymore.
I legitimately did not care.
Cause I was like, I'm not going to see any of you people ever again.
I'm moving to Texas and I don't care.
There's always an interesting feeling.
Or do you ever scared that like I was going to go blind?
No, I was more, it just looked like it hurt really, really bad.
And I knew that it did.
I think probably the worst that happened with me was so I didn't ever get it like in my
eyes or anything like that.
I just remember going home after everything and taking a shower.
Oh, and shower is when it was a real problem.
Cause I remember it was all over my arms.
And then it was like on my hands, of course, from when I was spraying.
And so it was one of those things to where like it, it feels like a really like the worst
sunburn you ever had pretty much like it, it starts activating once you have the water
on there.
So I remember it was a pretty painful time and like I was having to be careful where
I touched because it was like, I didn't want to, you know, like it was, and I didn't want
it to like put it on my face or anything.
So yeah, it hurt pretty good.
So it was not like, it wasn't funny either.
So I remember just being like, that hurts.
So yeah, just cause, just cause you think the first stage is over with, does it mean
that it's, it's like when you, like after you get a tattoo and then like you are in
the shower or like you're washing it and you're like moving, it hurts.
Like it's a lot like that, but like a couple times worse.
But yeah, I survived pepper spray.
There was part of me, there's always been part of me that's like, I wonder how bad getting
taste hurts.
I know it's not fun, but listen for me, I want to go through that.
Me and electricity do not mix.
So I'm going to go down a side avenue very briefly.
I don't even think you've heard this story.
I worked for a, a new old Japanese place.
It was a Japanese place run by white people, which was kind of interesting, like a bachi
style without the show.
And so they had this ticket machine in the back, like one of the old school ones.
And for whatever reason, you know how electronic sometimes there's a black box that's in the
middle, like there's two segments to the cord, like the power cord.
And so this black box was like uncovered.
So like all the electronic components were open and I was wiping down that back bro and
I hit that dude.
And I don't know how much went through.
All I know is I was on the floor and like they had to take me to the hospital.
Like I remember like going up there and being like, what the heck happened?
And I just remember my body freaking hurt.
Like it hurt like for hours afterwards of just, I didn't want to go to the, at the time
I was like 19.
I was like, don't take me to the hospital.
But I was just like, man, it really, I remember it like really hurting.
So like when somebody is like, yeah, to get taste of like, no, thank you, especially not
the police ones were like just the prongs.
Cause like it's not just getting taste.
Like you got to get those things like yank daddy.
Like it's pretty gnarly.
I don't want to go through that.
But again, I'm also like, man, I've been through a lot.
Like even when we talked about tattoos and those, some of those are pretty painful, but
like I don't want to go through being taste.
So yeah, for sure, man.
Well, all right.
Go ahead.
I was going to say we're going to move into our next segment, which is the jelly donut
and that's the jail report.
Oh man.
So you got for us.
We got plenty of wonderful, wonderful arrest stories.
Now tend to be exact.
I know being from Mississippi like I am and the education system, I don't know.
I didn't think I could count that high, but here we are.
So the first one, and I dug deep for these, they're all very good.
So the very first one, the potterailer peeler robbery.
So this was happening in 2018 in New Hampshire.
And so this man was charged with attempted robbery.
So he attempted to rob a store with a potato peeler claiming to that it was a knife.
The cashier just laughed and basically wrote him off.
And so he actually ran off and then ended up getting arrested, but he tried to stick
the place up with the potato peeler.
Christopher.
Yeah, I think I remember reading a story like that before.
Yeah, that's why I think I kind of I think I've seen that.
I think you were like to conceal part of it.
Yeah.
Or if you did like the little jacket maneuver, you know what, like some people, I mean, it
works better with a gun, but like, you know, I'm talking about where people like the little
jacket maneuver.
All right, so the next one, this is the pineapple thief.
This happened in good old Florida 2019.
And so this man was charged with theft.
So this man was arrested after he was caught stealing pineapple from the store from a public
actually.
Okay, good, good, good old publics.
The man had been caught with a via surveillance footage and then they chased him out to the
parking lot when he was arrested, he claimed that he just wanted a quick snack, but he
was charged with theft on that one.
Yeah, he'll be out in no time.
That's not like a big charge.
I'm like, bro, you're gonna risk it for a pineapple for a pineapple for a pineapple.
Okay, so this guy here, or I'm sorry, it was a lady, this lady here, she was arrested for
assaulting people at the local Walmart.
You gotta love the local Walmart.
And what would happen is she would approach unsuspecting strangers, give them a tight hug
to the point where it was thought to be evasive.
And then when people would try to do like evasive maneuvers or something like that,
then she would just try to hug them harder while giving compliments at the same time.
Now, I don't know what compliments these were, but at the same time, I wouldn't want no random
lady at the Walmart coming up to me, hugging me, giving me some random compliments.
So she was asked to leave by management.
She said no.
So they ended up arresting her for battery, battery, geez, I've mixed those two words
up battery, battery, I said it again, battery and disorderly conduct, battery.
I mean, there are worse things to get arrested for, but like, it's like, no, you're going
to take this hug and you're going to take this compliment.
Does she have like some weird fetish or what?
I don't know.
It's just like you come here, you know what?
Your handsome man just like give him a, I don't know.
But at the same time, I'm just like, not, not for me at the Walmart, not for me at the
Walmart.
I forgot to tell you where that was at.
That was actually in California.
I was kind of expecting that to be somewhere in the South for some reason, but then ended
up being the South.
Interesting.
All right.
This one happened in our good old state of Texas.
All right.
So this was two men got arrested because they were having a dance off in a public park while
very intoxicated.
So both of them were very drunk and they had some sort of dispute.
According to police or according to what they told police, they decided instead of having
a full on fight, they were going to have a dance contest because there was a local venue
that was playing music loud enough for them to hear.
So they were just in the park having a good old dance contest instead of swinging and the
cops got called.
So they still got, they still got, they only got cited for public intoxication.
But I still thought that was a little interesting.
They're not hurting anyone.
Like they were at least adult enough to have a dance off instead of swinging on each other.
Like, let them be like, let these two drunk guys be like.
That's pure.
That's free entertainment.
I just, I just, I still thought I was, I added that one just because I was like, even not
being arrested, even just being cited with some public intoxication, getting a ticket.
It's like, hey, at least they had swinging on each other.
At least they're just like, you know what, you're moved, buddy.
And they just got in, you know what?
It's good.
All right.
This happened in the UK.
So overseas fishing ships, mate.
No, I'm joking.
That's not great.
So this one was, a man was arrested after he was playing an air guitar causing a public
scene.
But here's the kicker.
He had no pants on.
So he was playing the air guitar in his underwear.
So yeah, he got arrested for public indecency and disturbing the peace.
So you can't do that.
You just can't do that.
It's a bit odd.
It's just.
It's a tad strange, isn't it?
I'm sorry.
Yeah, I love British people.
They always end things with a question.
I don't know.
I don't know how they do it.
Anyways, all right.
So this is the most, this is a Southern thing.
And I'm just going to say where it happened, where it happened.
I can't talk today.
It's a Mississippi, bro.
That Mississippi twang's coming out.
Oh man.
I've been sick all week.
It's been a little interesting here.
All right, so this happened at the good old waffle house.
Got to love the water house.
Georgia.
This was just outside of Atlanta, Marietta.
So what ended up happening was a man tried to escape arrest by climbing on to the waffle
house roof.
So then they get into a standoff for over two hours trying to get the man off the roof.
He was then caught for a short time later, but he was arrested for disorderly conduct
and resisting arrest.
Now, here's the thing.
My first thought when I read this story, because I was just going to pass this story
on by, right?
Just okay, man climbs a waffle house.
No, no.
This man, you would think, okay, most waffle houses have that ladder that's in the back,
right?
That you could climb onto the roof.
No, no.
This man somehow scaled the waffle house to get onto the roof.
I don't know what he was on, but like somehow, according to this story, he did not use the
ladder and somehow scaled the building to get onto the roof.
Yeah, he had to be on drugs.
That's, that's, yeah.
He was probably high and was like, let's go to the waffle house to eat.
Like that's great.
The things you see at the waffle house, man, like if you've never been to the waffle house,
it's a special place, especially the later at night it gets.
It's a special place, special place.
All right.
The next one.
This one is the case of the mismatch shoes.
So this woman went into a store in the mall for Christmas.
This actually happened here in 2020.
She goes into the mall for Christmas.
She goes into a shoe store and she gets a pair of shoes, doesn't pay for it in leaves.
So surveillance camera, they look at her.
They didn't catch her, but they had her picture, all sorts of stuff.
This same woman comes back to the same store.
Why?
She tried to return the shoes because they were not mates of each other.
So one shoe was one size.
The other shoe was the other size.
She was trying to get the shoes.
She tried to do it without a receipt, but she tried to get the shoes, the perfect pair,
the same size.
And that's when they caught her.
So there you go.
Mike, you know, if that would have happened at the bootcrawl, one of us would have gotten
written up for selling a mismatch.
Yeah.
Ladies and gentlemen, that was the thing at the bootcrawl.
If you sold a pair of mismatch boots and they had stickers on the bottom of them, then
they had to have matching sticker numbers.
If you sold a pair of mismatches, right up.
But anyways, I can't believe she tried to do that.
It's like, that's got what's coming to you.
One too many times in the cookie jar.
That's what I got to say to that.
All right.
So we got just a few more here.
So this one, a man was arrested for stealing 20 bottles of Heinz 57 ketchup.
You got to really love some ketchup.
The man seemingly obsessed with the condiment, filled his backpack and tried to leave without
paying from it's another grocery store here.
Have you ever heard of Tom Thumb?
Yeah, I'd say the division of Albertsons.
Geez, how big is that company?
I don't know, I guess it's old, out and bought.
So I don't know.
They're pretty big.
Anyways, so he was caught and arrested for the unusually large ketchup stash because
obviously they caught him.
But yeah, he was arrested for theft.
But when they asked him why, he just said he liked ketchup.
So he couldn't go to McDonald's and get some ketchup packets or Chick-fil-A and get some
ketchup packets or no.
No Christopher, he's got to have his fancy glass bottle Heinz 57.
It wasn't a plastic bottle.
You know what I mean?
It was a restaurant.
That was a nice name.
I'm joking.
I have no clue what kind of bottle it was.
But yeah, it's one of those things where he had to have his ketchup.
He had to have his 20 bottles of ketchup.
All right.
So this one happened at the good old Burger King.
You got to love Burger King.
You know who fell off the Burger King.
All right, so a group of customers at the Burger King received their burger with what
they thought was considerably too many pickles.
So they thought that their order, their whopper had too many pickles.
So this person decided that whoever was working in the back, they thought that they had some
sort of perceived slight against them for some odd reason.
So what ends up happening is the person who was in the lobby who had the two many pickles
threw their drink towards the back towards the cook and then a fight ensued where food
was thrown and apparently a brawl ensued in the middle of the Burger King.
Oh, yeah, though.
If you're throwing food at me, I'm oh, yeah, it's all it's in the tank is especially, you
know where this happened where Chai Rat over Chicago, this happened over Chicago.
So I'll throw food in I'll give you Chai Rat, Knuckle sandwiches.
But but yeah, they were the people who got the whopper with the two many pickles were
arrested for disorderly conduct.
Knuckle sandwiches was a two piece with a side of two piece fries.
There you go.
And I'll give it to you for free.
All right, the last one here, you got to love this one.
And this one happened in a great state of Alabama.
So we've got a man arrested because he out tried to outrun a police cruiser and his souped
up lawn mower.
Now how many of you have heard about lawn mower races?
I don't know how many of y'all have heard about lawn mower races, but they are things
especially in the south.
And this filler, he had himself a lawn mower that he raced apparently.
And so he spent away on said mower and the cops ended up pit maneuvering the mower.
I shouldn't laugh, but I'm just imagining this little mower and he getting pit maneuvered.
And so he ends up, you know, taking a tumble and then he was arrested for drunk driving
and reckless endangerment.
But man, I just could you imagine it's just like you never catch me alive, you know, on
his lawn mower.
You don't see that on police simulator.
So you don't see that one.
You know, when they say that each call out is different, what do they say?
Each traffic stop is different.
Don't ever be complacent.
It's like don't ever be complacent.
It's like, oh yeah, because some dude on a souped up lawn mower might take off on it.
That sounds like Alabama.
All right, man.
Well, that's all that I got there for the jail report.
They got some pretty wild stories.
What was your favorite one?
Um, probably the whopper one or because he got a big old whopper after you and I'm just
kidding.
Um, probably that one or probably the potato peeler one or probably the dance off.
Gotcha.
Well, that's good to drop.
Drop it in the comments of what you thought to what you think as well.
All right.
So let's move on to our next segment, which is the donut hole and you got to give the
drum roll or however you do that.
Um, I couldn't get my tongue to do the thing on that one.
But anyways, the donut hole is one of Chris, the first favorite hobbies.
He's got it behind him.
It is a wrestling quiz.
Yeah.
Back, back there, back there.
Yeah.
A wrestling people are.
Can you name any of them?
I see Sean Michaels, but that's because I see a ginormous.
You could, you could lettering.
So that's Sean Michaels.
Yes.
Let's see.
Um, that's seeing point.
That's Kevin.
Yeah.
Anyways, this is 1980s to now wrestling quiz and I'm going to go by and I'm going to go
by air.
Are you excited for this?
Let's see if I know what I'm doing.
Okay.
So we're going to start with 1980s wrestling here.
Who?
Oh, hold on.
If I can get this whole thing.
There we go.
Who was the WWE champion?
Why is this?
Sorry.
Are you on buzz?
Is that what you're?
No, I'm not on no buzzfeed.
I'm having some technical difficulties with my little quiz later where I wrote up this
quiz here, but that's okay.
Who is the WWE champion in the first ever WrestleMania in 1985?
Was it a whole Cogan B the iron chic?
See Andre the giant or D Roddy Piper was Hulk Hogan.
Yeah, it's your favorite person.
Oh, Hulk Hogan.
Chris loves the guy.
Like I mean, don't really don't don't.
Okay.
I don't like that guy, but we don't have time here.
Yeah.
We don't, we don't have enough time on this.
Now you're going to know this one, which legendary wrestler known as the nature boy was famous
for his catchphrase.
Whoa.
In the 80s, you can go ahead and say it.
I know you know, is it Rick Flair?
Yes.
Yes, it is.
I feel like even non wrestling people know that even non wrestling people know that.
Let's see.
All right.
So I think so too.
Enough people know Rick Flair.
I feel like.
All right.
So next question.
Who did Hulk Hogan famously body slam at WrestleMania in 1987, making one of the biggest moments
wrestling history?
Was it a King Kong, buddy?
B Andre the giant C Randy Savage or D Ted Diabasi?
How do you say that dude?
Yeah, Ted Diabasi.
He's the million dollar man.
I'm going to say Andre the giant.
Yes, that is correct.
That is correct.
So you're doing pretty good there.
All right.
So the next one here, we're moving on to round two.
That was the 80s.
So let's do the 1990s.
The 90s.
All right.
So which one of these WWE superstars was known for his stone cold stunner finishing move?
Go ahead and say.
Oh, bro, you're setting me up stone cold Steve Austin.
Who's that?
No, I'm joking.
Everybody knows who that is.
All right.
In the 1990s, which famous wrestler famously made the jump from WWE to East or to WCW,
sorry, leading to the formation of the in WO.
That's kind of a trick question because there were several of them.
Is it a answers?
Is it a Bret Hart B. Shawn Michaels C. Hulk Hogan or D. Kevin Nash?
Oh, that's a trick question.
Kevin Nash.
It is Kevin Nash.
Yeah.
I was like, you could you could argue that it's Hulk Hogan because Hulk Hogan did the
same thing, but it's Kevin Nash.
Yeah, for sure.
All right.
So next one here, which wrestler known as the People's Champion went on to become one
of Hollywood's biggest stars after his wrestling career?
Freakin Rock Dwayne the Freakin Rock Johnson.
I picked some of these just to make sure that it just, you know, another woman just frustrates
the fire out of me.
Fry your donuts, if you will.
Mm hmm.
All right.
So that's pretty much all I had for the 90s.
You ready to do the 2000s?
Sure.
Since you're acing all of these, I made it too easy, apparently, which if I can talk,
good superstar is known for his yes chant, which became a crowd favorite during his rise
to WWE stardom.
Brian Danielson or Daniel Bryan, however you whichever way you want to go with that.
Wait, so he has two names.
His actual real name is Brian Danielson, but when he wrestled for the WWE, he was known
as Daniel Bryan.
Okay.
Oh, there you go.
All right.
Next one here, which wrestler is often called the beast and, you know, has a dominant reign
Brock Freakin Lesnar, which I'm very disappointed at his actions.
Yeah, he's kind of a bad name.
It's kind of a note.
They're pulling all of his stuff like he's pretty much pulled from WWE, all of his merchandising
and everything.
So in 2014, a WWE superstar faced off against the Undertaker WrestleMania, ending a streak.
Which one was that?
I was Brock Lesnar.
Brock.
It was Brock Lesnar.
Brock Lesnar ended the streak.
All right.
The next question I have is what is the name of the finishing move used by the rock, which
was popular in the late nineties and early 2000s.
The people's elbow.
Yes, it was the people's elbow.
Which wrestler is known for the RKO move, which is often executed out of.
Does he hear voices in his head?
Because it might be Randy Orton.
Yes, it is ready or 90.
I didn't have to finish the thing here.
Okay.
So I got two more questions for you here.
Which fan?
Oh, man, I can't.
I can't talk.
Which wrestler famously broke a chair over his own head on live television during the
1990s?
Was it a McFauley be Chris Jericho?
See Eddie Guerrero or D Stone Cold Steve Austin?
Yeah, it sounds like McFauley.
So McFauley.
Yeah, it was.
It was crazy, bro.
Have you seen his hell in the cell match where he got thrown off the top thing by the Undertaker?
Oh, yeah.
No, I have seen that.
I have seen that.
It was like freaking stick it.
There was nothing.
Why?
I don't know.
All right.
So last question that I have here in the early 2000s, WWE introduced a wrestler named
the hurricane who was a superhero gimmick.
Is that true or false?
That is true.
And what ended up happening with the hurricane?
Who knows?
We don't know.
It fell off, huh?
All right.
Who is who is the current WWE champion right now?
Cody Rhodes, Cody Raheem Rhodes, my boy.
Cody Raheem.
Is his middle name actually Raheem?
I don't know.
There's jokes.
I was part of black history.
Part black.
And then he's the black champion.
And I'm like, oh, right.
It's like Cody Raheem Rhodes.
I can't even, but man, I know you like Cody Rhodes and all, but I know there's some things
that doesn't exactly make you happy and kind of alluded to it earlier in this episode.
But what really fries your donuts in our, what fries are done at segment today, Christopher?
So I alluded to it earlier and again, hear me.
It's not, I'm, I'm dumping on Southerners.
Okay.
I grew up in the South.
Michael grew up in the South.
I'm moving back to the South oddly enough.
The nice part of the South.
But like, there are certain things that I had just learned that as part of Southerner culture
that I'm like, bro, I'm not a fan of this.
Now, and Michael can attest to this because he has to sometimes frequently see his Mississippi
folks and they sometimes have some of these Southernisms.
And I will tell you a lot of people talk about Southern hospitality, but Texas has the best
hospitality.
I'll tell you that right now.
So when people say Southern hospitality, Southerners are nice up into a point.
But if you try to talk to like a random stranger, like in the South, they'll kind of like, look
at you like, hmm, Texas, you can just talk to anybody in any way.
I will talk to you.
Now one of the things that frustrates me about one of these Southernisms is have you
noticed that like Southernisms, like if they're hungry, they won't tell you that they're hungry,
but they'll try and if you're with them and you're at someone else's house, no one's
going to speak up and be like, Hey, I'm hungry.
Can we eat because that's considered rude.
What they will do is, is like, Oh, I think Mike is hungry.
Michael, you're hungry, right?
And it's like, no, I'm not.
No, yeah, you're hungry.
Maybe, maybe, maybe it's time to eat, you know?
And they're using you as an excuse to say that they're hungry, but they won't come out
right and say it.
Am I right?
Oh yeah, no, absolutely.
And there's, there's a lot of these other Southernisms that, and I don't know if this
is, I've seen this once we've got to Texas, it'd be different.
But one that was very strict was there was kind of an underwritten thing of you don't
go to the bathroom and other people's houses and less.
They're told to, like, apparently people in Texas do not understand that.
They're just like, Oh, you want to use my bathroom?
Like go for it.
Like nobody cares.
But in Southern thing, like even if you ask, I've been in situations where it's like,
and typically I wouldn't, or you've seen people ask and say, Hey, I need to go to the bathroom.
And they'll kind of be like, and kind of act like real weird about it.
And it's like, what's the problem with me going to your bathroom?
There'll be things like that.
There'll also be going back to food.
The one plate limit, like there's a, there's a mythical like one plate limit unless they
tell you like, Hey, pile on for a second plate.
And they're like obnoxious about it.
Even if they tell you like, Hey, get seconds.
That's still like a test.
You have to, you have to wait till someone else goes.
Yeah, right.
It's seconds before you don't want to be the first one to go and be that guy.
Now also too, I've also found this is a Southern deal.
It's like you, it's unspoken, but you're supposed to know this.
And if you do it, it's kind of like, they won't say it to your Facebook.
They'll talk about you after you leave.
But if you take the last of something, like if you're the, if you take the last roll or
you take the last bit of sweet tea or whatever, like they won't say that to your Facebook,
that's considered a root apparently.
Well, and even, even if you ask them, like, I mean, my thing is there's a lot of times
where it'll be like, does anybody want the last bit of it?
And everybody be like, Nope, I don't.
And then afterwards be like, could you believe that guy?
He just takes the last bit of stuff.
Hey, I have no respect for nobody.
He just thinks that he just runs the place.
It's like, I even asked.
And that's just think about Southerners.
It's like, if they have an issue with you, they will wait till you leave and then like
talk about it.
Talk about everyone else.
It's very like, yeah.
And it's like, if you have a problem with me, why don't you say it?
But they'll say it like in a nice, they'll be like, they'll say it in a nice way, but
they're insulting.
Oh, well, like for example, and this is pretty common among like, probably if they're another
woman commenting about another woman's dress, like the way they dress, not their actual
dress, maybe that place, they'll be like, they'll be like, wow, you must not really
get that cold or you must be awfully cold.
And that's what they're saying is, is that you are dressing very inappropriately.
Therefore you must be a promiscuous person.
Am I right?
Yeah, they're suddenly calling you hoey.
They're like, hey, you hoey.
And then, you know, it'll, it'll be like that for clothes.
It'll be like that.
Like there's a lot of judgment in things that are going on.
And I think the classic Southernism that people always talk about is the bless your heart.
Oh, bless your heart.
That is not a good thing.
That's like, I either feel sorry for you or like, oh, you're going through a hard time
or oh, you're just stupid.
It's like that.
They're really ragging on you, but it's got that smile on your face.
Like, oh, just.
I love the weirdest thing, but like, yeah, I'm like a hornet who got trapped in a cup full
of Coca-Cola and can't find his way out and it's like, okay, what are some other like
Southernisms that you have noticed?
Some of the other ones that I've noticed is, and I don't know if this is a generational
thing if this is just for the males or whatnot, but it's like, I've noticed that if you don't
know how to work with your hands like completely and what I mean by that is so like there's
some basic things like a lot of people don't have to change a tire and stuff like that.
That's not what I'm talking about, but there's a lot of folks that are in the South that
are most of them are really handy.
And of course, a lot of people in the South have had to come up and make do with what
they've had.
And so it'll be like, you've never built your own house before.
What are you talking about?
It's just like, no, I've never built my own house before.
And there's a lot of things that it'll be like, they kind of look down on you because you
don't have these.
Like what do you mean you never plumbed an entire commercial building?
It's like, I've never.
When I'm talking about the South, I'm talking about like the deep South, like Mississippi,
Alabama, Georgia, like that kind of thing.
There are nice parts of the South like Tennessee, the Carolinas, like those are nice parts.
But like also down like Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, like they don't have a lot of industries.
So most of them have to do some kind of trade like plumbing or electrician or like whatever.
So they are more hand.
Yeah.
I think, I think what I'm saying more is like people not only look down on you, but they'll
kind of be like, they'll kind of be like that kid.
Hey, you don't know what the heck he's doing.
And like, that's what they say.
And basically it'll be like what I'm doing, like I'm in it, right?
It's like, they won't trust me doing computer stuff.
It's like, well, I don't know how to do no plumbing.
So it's like, they make some like weird assumptions.
Yeah.
And you're going, well, that doesn't mean that doesn't equate to anything.
The biggest thing for me that comes to mind Southern wise is the Southern goodbye.
When somebody says we're going to say goodbye, that's not true.
That is not true.
Like Texas, it is better.
I will say that Texas is a little bit more wrapped up.
It is still take a long time.
And a lot of times when I'm talking about as church or some sort of gathering or function,
it doesn't matter really what it is, but it'll be one of these things of like, all right,
bye.
And then it's just like, well, did you say bye to so and so?
And it's considered rude if you don't go basically to everybody and say, hey, bye.
And it doesn't, it's not just like, hey, bye.
It's, hey, I'm leaving.
Oh, you're leaving already.
And then next thing you know, you're in your whole conversation about this whole thing.
And you're just like, and before you know it, it's like, I said I was leaving two hours
ago and here we are, like we're still just saying bye to folks and like it happens.
It really does.
It's like, I don't know.
It's very social.
Do you want to talk about expectations when it comes to vacations or visiting each other?
Let's say that for another episode.
Okay.
We're going to say that for another episode.
All right.
You already move on to the next segment here and hear me again.
I'm not, again, I grew up around people from the South.
So like I'm not dumping on them, but like I wish Southerners would just be direct and
like say, Hey, like I'm hungry or Hey, I really need to use a bathroom or like if you're thirsty,
you have to wait for someone to offer you a drink at their house.
Like just voice how you're feeling.
And then the passive aggressiveness, like if you're really upset, like don't, they will
be the people to tell everybody else except you that they got a problem with you and then
be like, Oh no, that's it.
So just Southerners, please, if you're listening, use your words, communicate.
That's all I'm asking.
Yeah.
And then we'll talk in the future, but what Chris is alluding to too about vacations and
some things, there's, you know, some of these Southern people, it's just like, if you were
to go to their location for a vacation, they're not going to show you around town.
They're not going to do whatever they'd be like, what do you want to do?
But it's like, if you, they come to your town, they expect you to have this whole grand plan,
you know, everywhere they're going to eat.
They know, you know what they're going to show them.
You have the whole thing lined up.
You've taken off work the entire week, like because they have, they are there.
You're rolling out the red carpet.
Congratulations.
They're in town.
But it's like, when you get to town, it's like, well, I won't be seeing you too much.
I'll be working all week.
It's like, it is what it is.
But anyways, all right, man.
Well, let's move on to our next segment, which is our mystery donut, which is our improv
segment and Chris, we have bad presentations today.
We haven't done this one in a while.
So the game is just what it sounds like.
Chris and I are going to give each other a sales pitch or something to pitch.
And we have to give basically an anti-pitch of what, why, why you wouldn't want to buy
it pretty much when the worst absolute quality is about this thing.
So Chris, do you have an idea for me or?
It's like, I've got an idea for you.
And this is going to put you in the real challenge.
Oh, great.
Give me a bad presentation about buying a plane ticket somewhere.
Okay.
I'm going to, I'm going to offend some people here.
Well, you're trying to go somewhere and you want a real vacation.
Think of Mobile, Alabama.
Mobile is a great place to go.
You're looking for a plane ticket.
I will put you on the biggest can of crap that is going from Atlanta to Mobile.
Let me tell you, it's commute air, the CRJ 900.
And for those non-plane people, that's a heap of junk.
So pretty much what you're going to love is you're going to get on this plane.
It's going to have the aroma of burning crap.
That's what's going to happen.
It's burning.
It's, and then you're going to sit down.
And what's going to happen is the seats going to fall off.
It's literally just going to fall off behind you.
And they're going to say, well, the flight's full.
So you're going to have to sit in this gentleman's lap.
So there's that.
And what's going to end up happening then is the bathroom is going to overflow.
It's going to go down the main aisle.
And then before you know it, it's only an hour flight, but it's been hijacked.
What do you know it?
It's been hijacked.
So now they're taking it to none other than Jackson, Mississippi, where they're going
to, you know, I'm not going to finish that statement, but you know what?
Doesn't that sound like a great trip?
Chris, that sounds like a great trip.
I'm looking for plane tickets.
You should be looking for plane tickets right now.
There are some all-inclusive deals at willidiotravelindustries.com.
Willidiotravelindustries.com.
A book, my next location there.
I'm ready.
Alrighty.
I just started a new, I just started a new website for the Dota Box podcast.
Pitch me the worst website you could possibly imagine for the Dota Box podcast.
Don't do that because then we're crapping on our brand.
Okay, fine.
Google just came out with a brand new search engine.
Crap on the search engine.
Do you want to have a search engine that takes five seconds just for you to get your loaded
answers?
Well, jokes on you, it's going to take a minute for you to get your answers once you put it
in the search engine.
Oh, and by the way.
This search engine doesn't curate the best website first.
It curates all the websites that were possibly give you potential spam.
So make sure you click on those websites first.
Also, are you tired of being tracked by the government?
Well, with this search engine, you're not going to have to worry about that problem because
it automatically tracks you and AI will calculate your every move.
As soon as you put one letter into the search engine, you're going to get all of the ads
on Facebook and Instagram starting with a letter H each day.
So try this new search engine by Google called the hell of bad.
All right.
All right, man.
I want more for you.
Sell me a, sell me a moving truck.
It's a moving service.
A moving service.
Are you tired of moving things yourself?
Would you like to have a crew of exactly one guy who has been broken down and is about
65 years old, come to your house and move all your stuff?
Well, you're what we're looking for and you were looking for you.
So come over here.
And what we are is we are elderly veterans moving service.
That's right.
The one and only because there's only one of us.
So we give you the time estimate typically wrong.
It should say two, three hours.
No, no.
Did we say two hours?
We've been two days.
So here's the thing.
If you're not looking to be on a timeline at all, don't worry about it.
This is the place for you.
It could take anywhere from a few hours to a few days to a few months.
Who knows?
He might not even show up at all.
If you like someone who takes frequent maps instead of actually doing the work.
Hey.
That's great.
In fact, he started squatting at a few people's houses.
He's forgotten why they're actually there.
So if you're looking for somebody who could possibly do this, that's us.
Come find us.
The movers, the one and only.
Don't you want to move with us?
You also forgot to add how he'll break all your stuff too.
When he puts it in the moving truck.
He's broken himself.
All right.
One more for me.
All right.
Sell me tickets to a Lido concert.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm doing a bit.
This is not how I feel.
Have you ever wanted to see a live bowl of chocolate melted ice cream?
While you're in luck, come to the Lizzo concert.
You'll see this bowl of chocolate melted ice cream perform live as she plays the flute,
sing about how she doesn't need a man.
But yet all of her songs are about needing a man.
Also, do you want to hear some really bad singing?
Come to the Lizzo concert.
Have you ever wanted to experience the category five earthquake?
Come to the Lizzo concert where there's no talent.
You have to pay a thousand dollars just to get in.
And it's basically like going to the grocery store and buying a bowl of melted chocolate
ice cream that can sing.
Do you want to smell a dead whale at row 17?
Go to the Lizzo concert.
I'm going to.
Sorry, people.
Oh, man.
Sorry if there's any Lizzo fans out there.
I really I have I did not know who that person was until a few days ago.
And so and the only reason I found out who she was is she was right on a golf cart and
made the front like tip up.
No way.
Are you serious?
Are you?
Yeah, bro.
Look at look at the video.
She like wrote somebody's golf cart and made the front tip up.
I was like, who is this?
So I looked her up.
To listen to any more music.
I did not offer principle, but what principle I don't really know.
But I'm not crazy about it.
Like it's all right.
She seems like she's like into dance pop kind of stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm not.
I'm not huge on that anyway.
So wouldn't wouldn't typically be a bad bit.
But nothing against it.
I just saw that.
No, just it's it's great.
Great humor.
Bro.
You know, great.
I can't talk this week, man.
Great humor notes there.
All right, man.
Well, we are on to our last segment and that is our eclair segment or our positive advice
for the week.
So Chris, I think I went live first last time.
So if you want to go ahead and give our positive advice for this week, um, this is going to
be kind of a hard one for me.
And I won't go into too many details, but just let some things go.
You gotta let some things go and when people do you wrong or people cheat you or mistreat
you, you gotta let it go.
And it's and when I say let it go, that doesn't mean ignore your feelings.
That doesn't mean invalidate your feelings, process the feelings.
But if you're looking to get revenge or to try to get justice like and I'm a firm believer
like the Lord says that vengeance is mine.
And so it's really hard because you want to get even and you want to make things right.
But what you got to do is you got to let it go and you got to trust, you know what, I'm
going to have the highest character possible, even if they're not acting the best and I'm
going to take the high road and eventually you got to believe that it's going to work
out.
And I know some people are like, well, that's a really like rose colored lenses way to look
at it, but I firmly believe everything it's going to work out.
Because people that mistreat you or do that and they do that to others, it'll come back
on them.
And so you just got to learn to let things go and it's hard.
So don't let them have power over you.
Don't let them make you bitter because whenever you let them make you better, they hold all
the power over you.
And so keeps you from stepping into what God has really called you to do.
And so you just got to let some things go.
Absolutely, man.
That's good.
Mine is a little bit of a different accord here.
You know, something that's really, really hard and makes me think about it every year
is when we get to the new years and it's like, okay, new year's resolution and everybody
wants everybody, but it's always a natural, a good time, a reset of, okay, where do I
go from here or what are my goals for this next year and things like that.
But I've noticed that so many people in December and so many people during other times, when
they will wait for that perfect moment or they'll wait all through December and say,
you know what?
January 1st is the time that I'm going to do something.
And then January 1st comes and goes and it's like, okay, well, that's not it.
And then it's January the 15th or January, you know, I'm going to start the beginning
of February and things like that.
That sort of thing happens.
But the biggest thing to help combat those things is consistency.
But the other thing that I will say is this is there's never such a thing as a perfect
moment for anything.
There'll always be chaos.
There'll always be something crazy.
Grandma will be in the hospital.
You'll have your car going out.
You'll have this going on.
You'll have that going on.
Your dog's taking a poop in your bed.
I don't know.
You got all sorts of crazy crap going on, right?
But there'll never be that perfect moment.
And just know when you do start something that is worth it, it's going to be hard and
everything's going to hit the fan, especially hard after that.
But consistency is the key.
That's the biggest part about it is if you can get past, I don't know why I'm thinking
about this, but if you've ever seen that movie cast away, what was the hardest part about
getting off the island to cast away was those first few rounds of waves.
Like there were massive waves that would just, but if you can get past them, great, you're
great and you can keep going.
And so anytime you're starting something, you're always combating those first few waves.
And so, but there's never that perfect moment, but just be consistent and try your best and
I believe in all of you out there.
New Year, new me.
Shut up.
Still on mess, Cheryl.
That's such a great video.
I'm going to put that at the end.
Yeah, you should put that at the end because I send Micah that video or we send each other
that video around the new year.
It's hilarious.
New Year, new me.
So that's something else before we before we do it.
We were doing this.
We kind of talked about doing this, but we're going to go ahead and do it.
So let's go ahead and roll the video that we just talked about.
It's our video clip of the week since it's the new year, new year, new me.
All right, Chris.
Well, here's the thing.
After we had New Year, new me, let's, let's talk about where we can go here.
If that is over at the trash can network, the trash can network, and you can either
type that into YouTube as the trash can network or the Donut Box podcast.
And that's donut with D O U G H N U T.
We can't do that whole shorthand stuff that somebody else.
We don't, we don't mess with all of them.
So a donut box podcast, go find us over there and then it's over at the trash can network
over on Facebook and Instagram.
And so go give us a like and a follow over there.
Things are really popping off and booming.
We really appreciate all you guys.
And that's pretty much all I got, man.
Yeah.
So I think it's time for the Starship to take us out.
I'm Chris.
And I'm Micah.
And this has been the donut box podcast.
