Trashcan presents Nightline News.

2
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,520
I'm your host, Dan Crosby.

3
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:16,360
We all here in America put our faith and our trust in our congressmen and women.

4
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:21,440
We trust them to steward our votes correctly to get our bills passed.

5
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:26,280
But can we trust them with our beloved cartoon characters?

6
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:31,880
From South Carolina, Ted Robinson is now in a lot of trouble after reportedly going

7
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,160
to Disney World and trying to solicit Minnie Mouse for a lap dance.

8
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:40,880
Apparently the congressman had tried three times prior to solicit Minnie Mouse for the

9
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:46,040
lap dance and after being denied he then quoted the Bible verse that says, Man has dominion

10
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:47,920
over beast of the earth.

11
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,480
Ted Robinson is here with us tonight to explain his actions.

12
00:00:51,480 --> 00:00:53,120
Ted, welcome on the show.

13
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,000
Hey, thanks for having me.

14
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,240
Now Ted, you are in some trouble right now because of these allegations of with Minnie

15
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,240
Mouse.

16
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,360
Do you care to explain what went on?

17
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,880
Now I know everything looks really bad right now.

18
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:12,800
I just want to say that and I just want to thank the Fifth District for all their support

19
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,640
and their love during this time.

20
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:21,200
They have sent me great amount of letters and they said, Ted, we still believe in you.

21
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,360
The Lord still believes in you and he believes in the work that you're doing.

22
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:30,600
Now congressman Robinson, I have to ask, we're all thinking this.

23
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:36,720
Why would you solicit Minnie Mouse, a beloved cartoon character for the ages, for a lap

24
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:37,720
dance?

25
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,840
Don't you think that's a little inappropriate?

26
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,960
Now I just want to clear some things up.

27
00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:45,440
The media has really skewed this story.

28
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,320
I tell you this much.

29
00:01:47,320 --> 00:01:50,640
Minnie Mouse, she's not as innocent as she leads on.

30
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,240
First of all, I just let you know that.

31
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,120
Second of all, you should ask her about the cocaine that night.

32
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:58,120
That's second.

33
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,520
And third, the Fifth District knows what happened.

34
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,800
They're still behind me.

35
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,720
America's still behind me.

36
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,720
I'm thinking about running for president.

37
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:12,320
But why the Bible verse, congressman Robinson, why the need to use the Bible verse?

38
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:18,520
It is vital that God stays the centerpiece of our daily lives.

39
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:24,640
We trust in his word, regardless of the situation and what's going on.

40
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:25,800
He loves us all.

41
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:26,800
He loves us all.

42
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,240
And we just got to be reminded each and every day of his goodness.

43
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,240
Amen.

44
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,480
Congressman Robinson, is there anything that you would like to say to Minnie Mouse or Mickey

45
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,680
Mouse or the general public because you are on national TV?

46
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,400
Don't let me catch you in the street.

47
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:42,560
Neither one of you.

48
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:48,040
And for the rest of the general population, I would love to just say right now I'm announcing

49
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:53,120
my candidacy to the Republican Party and we're going to win and sweep this whole entire

50
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,360
nation clean all the dirty wrongdoing and bad stuff.

51
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,280
And I know this might have made me look a little, but people are trying to out to get

52
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:02,280
me.

53
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:08,200
And it's the media and I'm telling you, if you vote for me, we'll be A-OK.

54
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,360
I don't have a slogan yet because I just announced presidency that I'm running.

55
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,360
All right.

56
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,000
This has been Dan Crosby for Nightline Nightly News.

57
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,000
We'll see you next time.

58
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,480
Hi, I'm Chris.

59
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:21,480
And I'm Micah.

60
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,000
And this is the Donut Box Podcast.

61
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:39,800
Well, buddy, it's another week, another great episode that we got planned up our sleeves.

62
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:40,800
Guess what?

63
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,560
We got a new listener, not in a new state, but in a new country.

64
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,320
So, okay, Canada, we appreciate the support.

65
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,480
I would sing it if I knew the lyrics, but all I know is it says, oh, Canada, and I kind

66
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:51,480
of know the tune.

67
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:52,480
But yeah, awesome.

68
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:53,480
Canada.

69
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,320
Also, shout out to our overseas listeners, Belgium.

70
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:04,400
And I mean, we got so many, Ireland's been on there too, a good bit.

71
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,160
I mean, we got a ton of overseas listeners out of country listeners, but we also thank

72
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:12,920
our country, or our in-country listeners here in the United States appreciate it, especially

73
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:19,400
in our home state of Texas and Virginia, Oregon, Washington state's been really big too.

74
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,320
Iowa, man, we got so many listeners.

75
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,320
It's Ohio.

76
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:24,920
We can keep on going.

77
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,200
I think you were trying to channel your Congressman Ted Robinson there for a minute.

78
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,480
But anyways, we are going to jump into our old-fashioned donut, which is a story from

79
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:34,480
our past.

80
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,600
And Micah, what do you got for us this week?

81
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,160
We got an interesting story.

82
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,000
So, we used to have yard sales.

83
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,760
I'm pretty sure if I could say show of hands, how many of y'all had a yard sale when y'all

84
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,680
were a kid or a garage sale or whatever, an estate sale if you're fancy.

85
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,120
I'm sure everybody would be like, yeah, we had at least one or we knew somebody had

86
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,120
one.

87
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,680
So, we had this yard sale.

88
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,480
And I don't really remember too many specifics about this yard sale, do you?

89
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,040
I don't remember at all.

90
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,040
And prior to this yard sale, I had never had a yard sale at my house.

91
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,200
Our family never had a yard sale.

92
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,480
So, the only time I had yard sales was whenever you guys decided to have a yard sale.

93
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,240
But do you remember why we had a yard sale?

94
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,240
I don't remember.

95
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:18,240
I don't remember either.

96
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:23,040
I just remember it was like, okay, we're going to get rid of a bunch of stuff, yard sale,

97
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,480
and you'd have to get up really early, like five in the morning.

98
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:33,800
And I actually do remember one part that I didn't remember before going into this.

99
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:40,920
I remember we had to put out little flyers on the windows because my father was a little

100
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,480
ee-ee about things.

101
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,760
And so, we had to literally go put flyers on these cars at this grocery store.

102
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:51,160
And I remember somebody came out and said, you can't do that or something.

103
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,280
And he still made us do it.

104
00:05:53,280 --> 00:05:57,120
He's like, you got to let some little pipsqueak tell you not to put things.

105
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,200
Well, I mean, it kind of works for the business.

106
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,600
I think the exact quote was, are you going to let some little buggy pusher push you

107
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,600
around?

108
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,160
I think that's what the quote was.

109
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,280
Yeah, I think that's what it was.

110
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:08,440
I think you're right.

111
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,400
But anyways, so we had to do all this stuff and then we had to put out signs at like five

112
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,160
in the morning, put all the crap out.

113
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,560
And I mean, for those of you who haven't been to a yard sale or know about yard sale, some

114
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:21,800
people take it really serious.

115
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,600
I mean, we had a lady out there, like 5.30.

116
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:29,320
We barely had stuff out in the yard and she's out there with flashlights going through it.

117
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:30,440
It was insane.

118
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:35,520
But anyways, the only reason this yard sale really stood out was one.

119
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:42,000
So my father at the time had a motorcycle and it was in the backyard and Chris, come

120
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,800
on buddy, tell him about this guy.

121
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,280
Well, this guy just walked up and he didn't say anything.

122
00:06:48,280 --> 00:06:50,680
Didn't say, Hey, how are you doing?

123
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:51,680
Hey, how's it going?

124
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:52,680
Nothing.

125
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:57,680
He literally, the first thing he walked up and was like, all I hear is, ooh, nice pipes.

126
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,800
And I'm like, well, that was a little sexual, I think.

127
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,520
And he was like, he was like, and he had a very feminine nature about him.

128
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,400
I'm not trying to try to talk mess, but he was just like, so how much is your motorcycle

129
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:13,400
for sale?

130
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,600
And I just remember he was very interested in your dad's pipes.

131
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,560
Your dad might have known him from somewhere.

132
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:20,560
Yeah.

133
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,680
I mean, wine did dine.

134
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,800
Anyways, what I'm thinking.

135
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,080
I mean, that was, that was, I don't know why for the longest time, it was like, ooh, nice

136
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,080
pipes.

137
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,960
It would just stuck forever.

138
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,600
But the other thing that showed up, or the other person that showed up that was a little

139
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,520
weird, there was a fake Elvis that showed up.

140
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,360
So, but it wasn't, it wasn't like a very good fake Elvis though.

141
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,960
Do you remember, I remember it was like this guy showed up.

142
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,480
He kind of had Elvis hair and like sideburns, nothing really else.

143
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,000
He was like an Elvis impersonator, but he wasn't working.

144
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:00,040
And I think he just wanted to show up to the yard sale and he was like trying to impersonate

145
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:05,200
Elvis, but he was just in normal clothes and you were like, what the heck is going on?

146
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,200
But he looked like Elvis.

147
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,760
And I remember we took a picture with him because we're like, oh, that's cool.

148
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,320
But I don't know why we decided to take a picture with him.

149
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,320
Yeah, I don't know.

150
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:19,000
I do remember that the pitcher has like the neighbor kid in it as well.

151
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,240
He like jumped in the pitcher.

152
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,760
So I don't remember neighbor kid's name.

153
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,080
So that's interesting.

154
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,080
But so that was a weird yard sale.

155
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:33,480
You know, I didn't like those yard sales, but on a similar note, I'll lead into this

156
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,760
one as well.

157
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:41,240
We used to go to this auction and Chris, talk a little bit about what this auction was like.

158
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,320
It was pretty unique.

159
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:47,360
I don't know if you've ever been to a bingo house before, but a bingo house is like a

160
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,440
whole bunch of people smoking and it's very smoky.

161
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:56,720
So this was just like this auction was in a barn and it's like a typical auction, but

162
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,680
there was just like cigarette smoke everywhere.

163
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:02,320
You could like buy snacks and stuff.

164
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:08,160
And I remember like we brought a couple of things to the auction to sell, but I remember

165
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,440
it's like a typical auction.

166
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:15,080
I remember I guess your parents at the time are really big into like American pickers and

167
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,840
auctions and deals.

168
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,480
And so they thought it was a good deal.

169
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,320
No pun intended, a good thing to go to.

170
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:27,200
So we would go there like every Saturday and we would see what was there and see if we

171
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,320
could get a good deal.

172
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,600
And it was not about like buying stuff.

173
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,000
It was about getting the best deal that you could.

174
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,040
It didn't matter what it was.

175
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,560
And I think that was the whole high for them.

176
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:43,760
So Christopher, myself, went a couple of times with Micah and there was a certain lady that

177
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,720
worked the snack bar.

178
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,720
And I got to know her a little bit over the period of time.

179
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,200
And I thought she was a pretty good looking gal.

180
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,520
And I was 16, 17 at the time.

181
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,600
I was like, there's no way she's over 18.

182
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,440
And she was an elementary school teacher, wasn't she?

183
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,720
Well, she was a pre-school, she was a pre-K teacher.

184
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,800
So I remember I like got the nerve to like ask her out.

185
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,080
I was like, I'm going to ask her out.

186
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,320
I'm going to ask if I could get her phone number.

187
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,320
Because I thought she was 18 at least.

188
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,520
I was like, no way.

189
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:16,520
She's older than that.

190
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,320
And I went up to her and I was like, hey, so can I have your number?

191
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,520
And she was like, oh, that's so sweet.

192
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,600
She was like, but I think I'm a little too old for you.

193
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,840
And I was like, well, how old is too old?

194
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:34,840
And she was like, well, I'm like 23 or 24 or something like that.

195
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,080
She was like, maybe seven years older than me.

196
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,240
And so I was like, oh, well, that's not a problem.

197
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,640
And she was like, yeah, that's kind of a problem.

198
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,000
Because I was underage.

199
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,120
So I got denied by a preschool teacher.

200
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:47,920
Kind of hurt.

201
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,400
Yeah.

202
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,600
I remember that they had great hamburgers there, though.

203
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,760
And they had the bull peanuts and all sorts of stuff.

204
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,600
It was an interesting place.

205
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,680
But I remember we would go and we would sell stuff.

206
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:07,440
Auction would take like 10% of the cut of whatever you would make.

207
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,640
And I don't know.

208
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,240
Sometimes you'd be able to get good deals.

209
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,200
Sometimes it was just kind of nothing.

210
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,040
Because what it would start off as,

211
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,880
it would start off as people would just bring a bunch of their stuff

212
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:20,880
that they want to sell.

213
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,320
And so it's just a bunch of individuals items.

214
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,400
It's like live eBay, essentially.

215
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,080
And then after a while, then they bring in businesses.

216
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,560
And the businesses would sell their goods.

217
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:33,960
But I don't know about you, Chris.

218
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,080
All I remember about the business stuff, when they started selling theirs,

219
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:41,480
it was like, pardon my language, but cheap Chinese crap.

220
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,160
It wasn't anything very good.

221
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,560
Or it would be like boxes of M&M's.

222
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:47,880
It wasn't good at all.

223
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:52,400
It would be like, who wants 30 boxes of M&M's or something like that?

224
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:52,800
Oh, yeah.

225
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,160
It was like bulk stuff, huh?

226
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,520
Yeah, that's nuts.

227
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,720
I just remember not liking the auctions or the yard sales.

228
00:11:58,720 --> 00:11:59,320
You know why?

229
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,320
Because we would always have to do all the work.

230
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,760
We didn't have to be all the heavy muscle.

231
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:09,160
And then we would get maybe $15 for the whole day.

232
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:14,080
When we were kids, slave flavor was a common thing for us.

233
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,120
Yeah, they would literally be like, oh, yeah.

234
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,560
You're two strapping young kids.

235
00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:19,520
You can do this.

236
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,160
And we just said, yeah, because that's what we were used to doing.

237
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,800
But now, you've got to at least pay for my lunch kind of a thing.

238
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,360
Yeah, it gets old after a while.

239
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,800
But it was an interesting time.

240
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,040
We saw some interesting things.

241
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,360
One other thing that I'm going to say about the auction,

242
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,520
I think one of the weirdest buys that I've ever seen was Joan of Barks.

243
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,080
Do you remember that?

244
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,720
It sat on our back porch for forever.

245
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:45,520
Oh, yeah.

246
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,160
Tell them what Joan of Barks was.

247
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,840
For those of you who are familiar with the history,

248
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,520
Joan of Barks, if you don't know, or go look her up on Google.

249
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,800
But essentially, this local artist

250
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,880
decided that he was going to make this statue.

251
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,040
And Joan of Barks was burned at the stake.

252
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,600
Essentially, it was her burnt, but it was made out of tree bark.

253
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:14,880
And so she was in this kind of arms raised and tied up feet.

254
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,360
Like she got burned.

255
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,920
But it was like tree bark that was outside of this foam.

256
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,840
And yeah, they just sold it.

257
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,600
And it was really, really, really random.

258
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,080
And I really don't remember why we had it or why we bought it.

259
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:36,600
Because it's not like it could go in the house.

260
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,000
I think your dad thought it was cool.

261
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,720
And if I remember right, she was kind of like,

262
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,400
the forum was kind of like naked, I think.

263
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,400
I think I remember that.

264
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,200
And your dad got his jollies off of Joan of Barks.

265
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,320
So well, we are going to move into our next segment.

266
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,640
And we're not going to do the jelly donut today.

267
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,280
We're going to do the strawberry donut.

268
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:01,960
And it's just a little bit different.

269
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,760
So instead of doing jail reports,

270
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,280
we are going to do the funniest and weirdest ways

271
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:08,920
that people got fired.

272
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,880
So a lot of people have gotten fired over some dumb stuff.

273
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:16,360
Man, I know that people bosses sometimes are tripping.

274
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,640
So are you ready to hear why people got fired?

275
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,480
Yep, especially Texas, because it's a right to work state that

276
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:22,800
can fire you for no reason.

277
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,000
I know other states are like that.

278
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,600
So I'm interested to hear some of these.

279
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:26,240
All right.

280
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,960
So a CEO from Las Vegas was apparently

281
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,240
uncomfortable with the reelection of President Obama

282
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,600
whenever he got reelected in 2012.

283
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,080
So he's only known as David.

284
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,680
And we don't know what company he works for.

285
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,480
But he decided to terminate the position of 22 of his employees

286
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,800
because Barack Obama got reelected,

287
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,280
declaring that elections have consequences.

288
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,400
And that he needs to quote unquote, survive.

289
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,640
He says, I had to lay off 22 people

290
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,760
to make sure that my business is going to thrive.

291
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,000
And I'm going to be around for years to come.

292
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,680
And I have to build up that nest egg now for the taxes

293
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,040
and regulations that are coming my way.

294
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,720
Dude, that's really messed up.

295
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:12,560
Like I get being paranoid about the changes and all that stuff.

296
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,920
But that's no reason to fire people.

297
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,000
That's not a really good leadership either.

298
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,360
I'm just going to say that.

299
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,960
Because you adjust for the times.

300
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,520
You adjust while the times happen.

301
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,200
Yeah, and you can have some of that forethought.

302
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,640
But my thing is, if he was talking about like Obamacare

303
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,840
and having to have everybody have health care

304
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,880
and provide health care to everybody that's full time,

305
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,320
there also weighs around that to where it doesn't really

306
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:38,240
affect your business.

307
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,240
So dumb stuff, especially 22 people.

308
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:43,360
That's a lot of people.

309
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,520
It's kind of put in the cart for the horse.

310
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,720
But anyways, on to the next one.

311
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:53,080
So a hotel maid got fired because she wanted an autograph.

312
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:58,960
So apparently, Jennifer Lopez was at this luxury hotel

313
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,480
where she was going to stay in Germany.

314
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,680
Like any other fan would do, the hotel maid

315
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,080
decided to approach the singer when she knocked on her door

316
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,480
for an autograph but was turned away by two assistants.

317
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,920
The hotel maid would then receive some tragic news

318
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,360
after she had a phone call and told that she was fired.

319
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,440
She was just fired for asking for an autograph.

320
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,400
I mean, I would do the same thing.

321
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:20,760
I would ask for an autograph.

322
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,040
Yeah, I mean, I'd totally get it.

323
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,160
Whenever I had an airport position

324
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:26,880
where we were doing private jets,

325
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,600
and that was like the first thing that they told us

326
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,200
is you will see celebrities and like don't go up to them.

327
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,480
You have to treat them like they're a normal person.

328
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,680
Like you can't ask for their autograph

329
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,080
or take pictures with them or anything like that.

330
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,720
And it's frustrating because you're like, man, especially

331
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,920
in this day and age, it's like, you know,

332
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,760
picture didn't happen, right?

333
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,200
If I tell Chris, like, hey, I saw Jennifer Lopez today,

334
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,720
he's gonna be like, yeah, where's the picture with her?

335
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,360
Or, you know, are I, you know what I mean?

336
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:55,720
So it's super hard.

337
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:56,760
I get it.

338
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:57,600
Exactly.

339
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,000
But then on the, I get why they do that,

340
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,480
but then on the flip side, like there have been people,

341
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,200
especially with wrestling WWE,

342
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,400
they literally find out the wrestlers like flight arrivals

343
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,920
and stuff and they wait at the airport for them

344
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,080
just to get an autograph.

345
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,240
They're like leeches, bro.

346
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,760
And I'm like, yeah, if I was a wrestler or a celebrity

347
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,360
just getting off the plane and I have people shoving

348
00:17:19,360 --> 00:17:21,080
pens and autograph stuff in my face,

349
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,400
I'd tell them, yeah, get lost.

350
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,680
I heard that happened to Ray Mysterio.

351
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:25,720
Like, and he got pretty.

352
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,840
That did happen to Ray Mysterio because these people,

353
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,280
they don't just want an autograph for like themselves,

354
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,480
they want it so that they can go sell it on eBay.

355
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,440
They can resell it, yeah.

356
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,600
And cause I saw a video with him

357
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,520
where he was getting pretty upset and it's like,

358
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,160
listen, I already signed one for you.

359
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,040
Like one's all you're gonna get.

360
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,720
I couldn't imagine like flying through the airport,

361
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,120
and getting swarmed by people that you know are,

362
00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:50,680
just out for profit kind of thing.

363
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:51,520
But.

364
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,160
All right, so this next one,

365
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,760
this guy got fired for being a good Samaritan.

366
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,720
Mr. Juan was working at a Thai food restaurant

367
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,080
in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

368
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,320
when he ended up being involved in a situation

369
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:04,600
he would never forget.

370
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,000
While he was at work,

371
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,920
Juan decided to help a woman who was being car jack

372
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,280
outside of the restaurant.

373
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,640
So he took down the suspect who had a knife

374
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,000
and held him down until the police came.

375
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,640
Apparently he was fired for all the attention

376
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,080
he brought to the restaurant.

377
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,120
And I'm like, man, like, that's really messed up.

378
00:18:22,120 --> 00:18:24,800
Either something sketchy was going on at that restaurant

379
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,080
or what, but I'm like, the dude tried to do the right thing.

380
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:29,760
And he got penalized for it.

381
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,480
Man, if they gonna do that to you,

382
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:32,840
you don't wanna work there anyways.

383
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,320
Some, yeah, something's going on with that.

384
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,880
You know, I never understood stuff like that.

385
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,600
You know, we kind of talked about this.

386
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,760
Working at Papa John's as a pizza delivery guy at one point,

387
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,920
you know, carrying a certain amount of bank on you.

388
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,800
If you were carrying more than $100 on you

389
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,960
and you like how to go cash it,

390
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,040
you would have to go cash it in periodically

391
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:55,760
in case you got robbed.

392
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,040
If you had over $100,

393
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,120
which is really easy to do,

394
00:18:59,120 --> 00:19:01,360
some people will pay you $100 bills.

395
00:19:01,360 --> 00:19:04,560
And so it's like, you got over $100 in one pop.

396
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,960
If somebody robbed you, they will fire you for it.

397
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,800
So like imagine getting robbed

398
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,880
and then you get fired all of one go.

399
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,880
Like I just don't understand that stuff.

400
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,160
I don't understand that either.

401
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:15,600
All right, a couple more.

402
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,240
So this older guy was preparing to retire

403
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,240
and he had been with the company for 30 plus years.

404
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:26,120
So he was training this guy to take over his job.

405
00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:29,280
And he was training this guy for seven months.

406
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,160
And until he felt like, hey,

407
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,440
this guy's ready to take over, I can retire.

408
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,880
So the boss was afraid to lose 30 plus years

409
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,440
of experience and he fired the trainee

410
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,640
to keep the old guy for a little longer.

411
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:43,720
That's crazy, man.

412
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,840
Like he was like, oh yeah, I'm not gonna lose you.

413
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,400
So I'm gonna fire this new guy.

414
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:48,640
Like that's messed up.

415
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,560
Yeah, and it really is messed up for the,

416
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,240
you know, the guy that was trying to get in there

417
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:54,880
because he really didn't do anything wrong.

418
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,080
He was just kind of caught in the middle in that deal.

419
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,040
Yeah. A lot of these wrongful terminations,

420
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,720
people have said that they have sued and then they won.

421
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,240
And so they got money for it.

422
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,600
All right, last one.

423
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,000
So this lady, she worked as a hostess

424
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,760
and got along with all of her coworkers.

425
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,880
She regularly got told how great she was at multitasking

426
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,680
and keeping the wait time down

427
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,760
and managing the weekend wait list.

428
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,560
And she was told that she was the best hostess

429
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,800
they had in a while.

430
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,960
She got fired after about six months

431
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,880
because a guy who regularly came in

432
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,480
with his giant party of a family,

433
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,000
usually 10 to 13 people on Sundays after church

434
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,600
during peak wait time thought that

435
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,200
she didn't smile at him enough.

436
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,480
So she got fired because he complained

437
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,720
and was like, hey, she's not smiling at me enough.

438
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,240
That's really messed up, man.

439
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,040
Yeah, no, that's really messed up.

440
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:47,320
That's super messed up.

441
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,080
And I'll say this too, folks after church,

442
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,240
y'all need to be watching yourselves

443
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,480
because y'all be some of the worst.

444
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:56,800
I don't, I really don't know.

445
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,920
Every time I was in customer service and things like that,

446
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:02,560
it was always right after church.

447
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,080
I mean, people would come straight from church

448
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:05,600
and they would just be acting a fool.

449
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:06,920
I don't know what it is.

450
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:07,760
It's like that.

451
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,600
Oh, I checked my moral box for the day.

452
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,800
Now I can do whatever I want.

453
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,760
But yeah, those are some of the crazy reasons

454
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,160
why people got fired.

455
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:20,960
But yeah, so we are going to segue into our donut hole.

456
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,000
And it's my week.

457
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,320
And guess what, Michael, you're off the hook.

458
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,360
We're not going to play a game this week.

459
00:21:26,360 --> 00:21:27,760
Oh, we're not playing a game?

460
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,760
I was all geared up and ready for it.

461
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,880
Oh, man, well, I haven't done a movie review in a while,

462
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,360
mostly because there haven't been any good movies to go review.

463
00:21:36,360 --> 00:21:39,200
But I finally got one to review for us.

464
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,040
So you ready?

465
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:40,960
OK.

466
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,280
Yeah, what's up?

467
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,360
Now, wait to hear the review before I say it, OK?

468
00:21:46,360 --> 00:21:48,600
I'm going to review Creed 3.

469
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,560
And I know you're going to be like, oh, another Rocky movie,

470
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,000
another Rocky movie.

471
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,600
Creed 3 was amazing.

472
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:55,800
And I'll tell you why.

473
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,560
Number one, Sylvester Stallone was not in it at all.

474
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,680
Rocky was not involved at all.

475
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:07,080
Number two, this movie, it didn't feel like a Rocky movie.

476
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,360
It felt like it was his own thing.

477
00:22:09,360 --> 00:22:12,880
Now, it made nods to Apollo Creed being his dad and stuff

478
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:13,400
like that.

479
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,440
But it didn't make a nod to any of the old movies.

480
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,360
So if you guys don't know, in Creed 1 and 2,

481
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:22,680
Creed is about the illegitimate son of Apollo

482
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:23,960
Creed from the Rocky movie.

483
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,800
So Apollo Creed had an affair on his wife

484
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,560
and has this illegitimate son that they find out is there.

485
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,920
And he's got all this anger and stuff.

486
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,600
And then he decides that he wants to become a boxer.

487
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,360
He pairs up with Rocky Balboa.

488
00:22:37,360 --> 00:22:38,400
Rocky trains him.

489
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,680
And he becomes the greatest guy in the world.

490
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:46,360
Now, not Rocky, Creed 3 is now he's at the peak of his career.

491
00:22:46,360 --> 00:22:49,280
And he decides that he finally wants to retire.

492
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,320
But Creed, Donis Creed, who was played by Michael B. Jordan,

493
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,640
he has had a rough past.

494
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,960
And apparently he was involved in this big,

495
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:01,920
I wouldn't say murder, but it was this big crime

496
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,080
with one of his childhood friends.

497
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,920
Creed got away, but his childhood friend did not get away.

498
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,320
And he got locked up for 18 years.

499
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,040
Now, during the time of this story,

500
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,800
his friend is just fresh out of prison, right?

501
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,360
And he wanted to be the heavyweight champion of the world.

502
00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:21,680
So he's got this big chip on his shoulder.

503
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,520
And he's kind of like, you know what?

504
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:24,960
You owe me for all of this.

505
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,360
You owe me because I got locked up and you didn't.

506
00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:29,040
So Creed's trying to help out.

507
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,920
But the guy is just reckless.

508
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,080
And he's like, you know what?

509
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,240
I'm coming for everything that you have.

510
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,200
And Creed has to come out of retirement

511
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,160
because he's basically the only one that

512
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,200
could stop his friend from just hurting people.

513
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,200
Because this guy is legitimately hurting people on purpose

514
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,240
because he's got this chip on his shoulder.

515
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,560
And I thought it was really a good movie

516
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,240
because it was its own original movie.

517
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,360
It made some references to the other Rocky movies

518
00:23:54,360 --> 00:23:55,760
and to Apollo Creed.

519
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,680
But just enough, it wasn't like, oh, we're

520
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,440
trying to do a reboot or a continuation of the Rocky

521
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:01,920
story.

522
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,400
It was its own thing.

523
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,280
Also, it was also cool because in the movie,

524
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,720
his daughter is deaf.

525
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,160
And so it was cool to see them use sign language

526
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,480
for half of the movie.

527
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,920
So anytime they interacted, they were using sign language

528
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:16,640
with the daughter.

529
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,400
I think that stuff is really cool.

530
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,320
It was good storytelling, good casting.

531
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,240
It was a boxing movie, but it wasn't like a typical boxing

532
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:25,520
movie.

533
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:26,200
Does that make sense?

534
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:26,680
Yeah.

535
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,240
It had more of a storyline than just the boxing

536
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:30,680
or the sports aspect to it.

537
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:30,960
Yeah.

538
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,400
And it's not like this thing of it's all about boxing

539
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,560
and it didn't have a cheesy montage.

540
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,920
Like it did have a montage of them training.

541
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,360
But it was more about Creed's life than his boxing.

542
00:24:42,360 --> 00:24:44,760
Like the boxing kind of took like a secondary.

543
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,520
But it was more about Creed having

544
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,480
to deal with his past and having to reconcile that

545
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,400
with his current thing right now.

546
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,280
And then I'll tell you, the lady that played his wife,

547
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,080
I think her name's Tessa Thompson, dude,

548
00:24:58,080 --> 00:24:59,840
she was amazing in it.

549
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,080
Because I love that balance when it's

550
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,520
like you have a strong female lead,

551
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,040
but they're not like men suck.

552
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,360
And I'm going to kick everybody's butt.

553
00:25:08,360 --> 00:25:10,040
But she was like super strong.

554
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,880
And so it was a good balance of that.

555
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,840
And so I thought it was really a good movie to go worth seeing.

556
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:15,360
Yeah.

557
00:25:15,360 --> 00:25:17,840
And it sounds cool because it's, like you said,

558
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,040
it's differentiating.

559
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,360
Because you know my biggest thing about, I don't know,

560
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:26,120
you know my biggest thing about sequels and sequels

561
00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:28,760
and the force and the fists and the, you know,

562
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,160
so it's cool that it is separate.

563
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,920
And it gives nods to the past, but it's not quite,

564
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,360
you know, it's its own storyline.

565
00:25:36,360 --> 00:25:37,480
Yeah, it's its own story.

566
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,480
It was actually better than Creed II.

567
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,120
And Creed II I expected to be really good because basically

568
00:25:43,120 --> 00:25:49,040
the storyline about that is that it's Ivan Drago from Rocky IV,

569
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,520
the big Russian dude that killed Apollo Creed.

570
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,400
Well, Creed's son is fighting Drago's son.

571
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,040
And so like they got that Rocky IV rivalry going on.

572
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,000
And it was like kind of falling flat for me.

573
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,400
I fell asleep during it.

574
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,240
But Creed III was amazing.

575
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,440
Go check it out.

576
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,200
If you haven't yet, it's definitely worth watching.

577
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,280
Michael B. Jordan is like, he's great in anything that he's in.

578
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:16,560
Wasn't he also, he was also Black Panther, right?

579
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,000
Or in the Black Panther movie?

580
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,960
He was in Black Panther the first one.

581
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,800
He was the villain in that one.

582
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,000
But enough about that.

583
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,560
Let's go ahead and see what fries my donuts.

584
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,280
And Michael, what's frying your donuts, buddy?

585
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,040
You know, and I absolutely can't stand.

586
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,600
And we've already done something similar to this,

587
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,880
but not on the same lines.

588
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,480
Construction while driving.

589
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:40,320
Oh yeah, I hate that.

590
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:41,240
Here's my thing.

591
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,720
Or like road construction drives me mad.

592
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,760
I just don't understand a lot of it.

593
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,400
And tell me this, Chris.

594
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:49,800
I know where you live.

595
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,080
It's the same way.

596
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,160
We have stretches of road that have been under construction

597
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,880
for at least 10 years now.

598
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,680
And I don't see a construction worker out there.

599
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:03,600
I don't see.

600
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,160
And when I do, they're all sitting around gabbing

601
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,080
and eating their sandwiches.

602
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,080
And I'm sitting here going, when is this going to get done?

603
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:11,920
When are we going to?

604
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,640
And meanwhile, I'm sitting in traffic going two miles an hour

605
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,480
past them, watching their stupid behinds,

606
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,760
eating all this stuff, chilling, having a good old time,

607
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,880
all my taxpayer dollars are paying for them to quote unquote

608
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,640
fix this road.

609
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,360
It just drives me nuts.

610
00:27:28,360 --> 00:27:31,200
And then when you talk about going on a long distance trip,

611
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:35,440
oh, Lord, you're going to hit at least three or four patches

612
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,120
of really bad traffic, really bad construction.

613
00:27:39,120 --> 00:27:41,000
And you might see people out there.

614
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:41,800
You might not.

615
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,560
You might see them actually working.

616
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,280
You might not.

617
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:46,000
It's a crap shoot.

618
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,000
Oh, yeah, exactly.

619
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:51,520
And especially whenever I go down to visit down

620
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:56,360
in the central Texas area, I have that one stretch of road

621
00:27:56,360 --> 00:28:00,240
where it's literally the road is a one lane highway.

622
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,920
And you have to sit at that light and wait for it.

623
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,160
And that's been going on for over a year and a half.

624
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,960
And you're sitting here like, dude, when

625
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,480
are you all going to finish this?

626
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,000
And you're like, I either see them just sitting around

627
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,920
or I see one person working and all the rest just

628
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:16,920
standing around.

629
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,120
I'm telling you, man, it really gets under my skin.

630
00:28:20,120 --> 00:28:23,400
And it's like, why do we have to wait on this construction

631
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:24,400
to take so long?

632
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,200
And here's my thing.

633
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,080
I don't think the road's that bad to even begin with.

634
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,800
Like the road, the stretch of road that they're working on,

635
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,640
you're like, why did this need to be fixed?

636
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,480
I don't think this needed to be expanded.

637
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:37,920
Like what's going on here?

638
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:38,360
No.

639
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,200
And I'll say this, the stretch of road he's talking about,

640
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,040
one, it's in the middle of nowhere.

641
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,400
Like I'm talking, it's on a stretch of road

642
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,800
and there's just nothing around it at all.

643
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:53,920
And there's a light, which I've never seen before.

644
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,160
Normally they'll have like a flagger out there, right?

645
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,920
They'll have the one guy on one end

646
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,360
and they'll have the other guy on the other end.

647
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,600
They'll tell you, OK, you can go or you can go.

648
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,960
I've even seen like the truck where they'll have a truck

649
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,800
and it's like you follow the truck and whatever.

650
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,000
But this one has an actual traffic light.

651
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,440
But this sucker is like three and a half miles long.

652
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,640
So if it turns red and it turns green on the other end,

653
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,400
you've got to wait for them to drive three and a half miles

654
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,160
on that one lane to get to where you are

655
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,960
and that whole line of people to get there.

656
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,440
And it stacks up because of how long it took the other side

657
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:29,600
to do it.

658
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,440
Then when it turns green, then you have three and a half miles

659
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,600
to go and you're dictated by the people in front of you.

660
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,040
Hopefully you're the first person in line.

661
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,360
But it's just it's a pain in the rear.

662
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,520
And every time I'm at that light, I'll tell you this much.

663
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,560
I always get stuck behind a trucker.

664
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,280
And nothing against truckers, I know

665
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,680
they have a hard time getting up to speed.

666
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,680
But my goodness, it'll be one of those things.

667
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,400
It takes even longer to go that three and a half miles

668
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,040
because you're only going 25, 30 miles an hour.

669
00:29:59,040 --> 00:29:59,400
Yeah.

670
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,200
And then after that, you don't have a passing lane

671
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:03,640
for another five miles.

672
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,760
So you're sitting there just stuck and you're like, oh my gosh.

673
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:10,240
And I think I don't know if we talked about this before.

674
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,960
But where I lived, the city planning was so dumb

675
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,040
because I live in a college town.

676
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:20,520
And Texas Tech is big football, big football season, right?

677
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:25,440
So they had all summer to work on this stretch of road that

678
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,760
was the main road by the campus.

679
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:32,280
And they could have started as soon as school let out.

680
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:36,360
But they didn't start until the first week

681
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,360
in August, right before school started.

682
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,960
And they closed this road down to one lane.

683
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,880
And they did it, the construction,

684
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:47,080
all during football season, backing up all of the traffic,

685
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,000
making it hard for people to get into the stadium

686
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,520
to get around campus.

687
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,920
And I'm sitting here going, like, who planned this?

688
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,680
Like, who thought it was a good idea

689
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,320
to start on this construction at the very beginning

690
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:00,440
of the fall semester?

691
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,440
Heck, do it at the spring semester

692
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,760
because there's not even that much going on either.

693
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:05,960
That's what I'm saying.

694
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,040
Something like that happened where

695
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,920
I was living in San Marcos.

696
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:12,480
It's a college town as well.

697
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:13,920
And they were going to build a bridge.

698
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:18,720
And literally, they had all summer to do it.

699
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:19,600
When did they start?

700
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,240
Right when fall semester started.

701
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,600
And literally, it's the main way to get in and out of there.

702
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:25,760
It was just ridiculous.

703
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,960
But my big thing, too, especially in the state of Texas

704
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,640
where we live, this makes perfect sense to me.

705
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,160
I don't know why they don't enact this further.

706
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,760
Why don't road crews work at night?

707
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,360
Like, that's my big question.

708
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,040
They come out there middle of the day, right,

709
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,240
where the most amount of traffic is.

710
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:47,480
They'll start in the morning.

711
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,320
And I remember living in Austin.

712
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:51,280
It was the absolute worst.

713
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,480
They would get started at 6, 7 in the morning

714
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,160
right when rush hour starts.

715
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,880
So you have rush hour on top of construction traffic.

716
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,640
It makes everything so bad.

717
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:01,760
But think about this.

718
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,920
If you're working and you get started at 9, 10 o'clock

719
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,480
at night and you go until 3 or 4 in the morning,

720
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,120
there's not going to be a lot of people out.

721
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,120
Even if you do get a lot of a bit of traffic,

722
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,000
it's not going to be much because there's not

723
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,400
a lot of people going to be around.

724
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,960
That's what I was thinking, too.

725
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:22,040
And I was wondering, is it the temperature?

726
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,120
Is it the fact that they can't find people to work overnight?

727
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,480
Like, they can bring in those lighting trucks.

728
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,160
And they can bring in lighting for them to have ample lighting.

729
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:32,400
But that's what I've thought, too.

730
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,040
It's like, why don't y'all do the work overnight whenever

731
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:35,920
no one's there?

732
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,600
And you can get more done.

733
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,720
And you can get it done quicker.

734
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,120
And yeah, man.

735
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,000
And most of the time, whenever they're

736
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:44,520
quote unquote working on the road,

737
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,360
I feel like they don't even be doing that much at all.

738
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,200
But the little stretches of road that they're working on.

739
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,480
Not for days at a time.

740
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,960
But then there will be that one day that you'll pass it.

741
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,840
And you'll go, oh, man, y'all are doing everything today.

742
00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:59,880
I don't know if you've seen that before, too.

743
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:02,040
It'll seem like they're just chilling, chilling, chilling.

744
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,960
And they might be doing something.

745
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,480
You might have a couple of the workers scraping or doing something.

746
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,120
Half the time, it's like they're doing something with a tool.

747
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,360
And it's like, what are you even doing right now?

748
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,360
I'm not even really sure what you're doing.

749
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,160
And then one day you'll pass.

750
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:17,680
They'll have all the equipment out there.

751
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,520
They'll have the big roller.

752
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:20,960
They'll have the big bulldozers.

753
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:21,960
They'll have everything.

754
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,920
And they'll have 18 people working on it.

755
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,240
And they'll all be smoothing it out.

756
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,520
They'll be doing all this stuff.

757
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:27,720
And you go, oh, dang.

758
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,240
They really kicked it in the high gear.

759
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:33,480
But the days surrounding that is a whole lot of nothing.

760
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:34,200
Yeah.

761
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:35,480
I hate road construction.

762
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,240
I hate how people are driving road construction.

763
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,680
I just hate that people can't drive in it.

764
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:41,600
And I'm sick of it.

765
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:42,200
Yeah.

766
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:43,320
I hate it, too.

767
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,040
I just hate how it drags on.

768
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,600
I just can't stand how not just how people drive in it,

769
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:55,920
but also how police officers act in it.

770
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,120
As bad as it is, police officers use

771
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,800
construction zones as extra chiching.

772
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,760
And so you got to be extra careful because you'll

773
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,720
get pulled over in a heartbeat, too.

774
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,280
I mean, doing any little thing.

775
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,920
I mean, it's not even speeding.

776
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,080
If you failure to maintain the lane,

777
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,080
they will pull you over in a heartbeat for that

778
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,200
in a construction zone.

779
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,240
They love those double fines.

780
00:34:18,240 --> 00:34:19,400
I just hate it.

781
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,920
I don't get it whenever it says end road work.

782
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,200
And then literally a mile, then it says begin road work.

783
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,120
Is it just another project that they're working on?

784
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,040
Or what?

785
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,560
Because I'm like, why did you say end road work or end

786
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,000
construction zone?

787
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,440
And then it lets me know, hey, I can break the speed limit.

788
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,920
And then I have to slow down in another mile or so.

789
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,160
That doesn't make any sense to me.

790
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:43,680
I don't know.

791
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:47,160
I know definitely some areas, especially in the South,

792
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:52,720
they'll set up bogus construction zones to like that

793
00:34:52,720 --> 00:34:54,920
as speed traps, essentially, to where

794
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,200
it'll be like, OK, I'm out of this construction zone.

795
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,680
Let me floor it and get back up to regular speed limit.

796
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,320
And then a mile later, it's really easy to miss those signs.

797
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,240
And if you miss the sign, then all of a sudden a cop's

798
00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:07,440
waiting on the other end of it.

799
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,760
You got any more to say about construction zones?

800
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:10,720
Oh, I got plenty.

801
00:35:10,720 --> 00:35:13,760
I wish there's been a lot of times.

802
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,200
And they probably are like, what the heck.

803
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,360
But I have rolled down my windows a few times

804
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:19,960
and been like, what the heck are y'all doing?

805
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,800
Just sitting around.

806
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,400
Yeah, I've let some frustrations out

807
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,360
of the construction guys on the road there.

808
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:26,960
Have they said anything back to you?

809
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,480
No, they just stare at me.

810
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:29,600
I've done it twice.

811
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,920
And both times, they just kind of like stared at me like,

812
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:32,760
what did he say?

813
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,320
I couldn't really tell what he said.

814
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,800
Well, we're going to hop into our next segment, which

815
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:38,360
is the Mystery Donut.

816
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:39,600
And that's our air prop segment.

817
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,400
So guess what?

818
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,360
I think the coffee shop guys are back, right?

819
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:44,480
All of them.

820
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,200
Well, not all of them.

821
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,480
We got so many characters at the coffee shop now,

822
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,840
I don't even know if I can remember all the voices we've

823
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:51,640
done to this point.

824
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:52,400
I can't either.

825
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,840
I think just whoever shows up shows up.

826
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:56,960
It's always random.

827
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:01,240
But actually, a funny story, because we talk about those old

828
00:36:01,240 --> 00:36:05,120
guys that sit at the coffee shop all the time.

829
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:11,080
My pastor was talking about how at his old church,

830
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:14,120
there was these guys that would always sit at the McDonald's

831
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,000
and talk and gab.

832
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,400
But what they would do is, like the first couple hours

833
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,160
in the morning, they would go to the church and like help out

834
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,400
and do whatever it was and then go to the McDonald's

835
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:25,240
and get their coffee.

836
00:36:25,240 --> 00:36:29,280
And they called themselves the Hawks, helpful old guys.

837
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,040
That's what they called themselves.

838
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,240
I was like, oh yeah, that's definitely an old guy group.

839
00:36:34,240 --> 00:36:36,960
Man, that just falls right into that stereotype

840
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:38,160
of what we're going for.

841
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,480
Well, let's kick off the coffee shop.

842
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:42,440
Back again.

843
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:43,120
Back again.

844
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,040
See, all my friends at the coffee shop,

845
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:46,560
we're going to talk some mess.

846
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,920
And so first and foremost, who thinks

847
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:50,800
it's going to win this week?

848
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,440
What do you mean?

849
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:53,520
Who's going to win this week?

850
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:54,880
It's going to be the Dallas Cowboys.

851
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,680
You know that they're going to win all the time.

852
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,160
You know that's God's team.

853
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,360
That's why they have them retractable roofs because
854
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,360
God's always smiling on the Cowboys.

855
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:07,600
All I'm saying is the Cowboys haven't quite been good.

856
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,080
I don't know.

857
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:15,960
Been probably, oh, what's it been about 20, 25 years?

858
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,280
Yeah, Hans, I love the Dallas Cowboys, man.

859
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,320
I love that Daks Prescott guy, man.

860
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,560
He always be throwing the football, the time,

861
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:23,680
to all that guy.

862
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,880
He better than Patrick Holmes, man.

863
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:28,680
It's Dak Prescott.

864
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:30,200
Dak Prescott.

865
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:31,680
That's what I say, Dak Prescott.

866
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,040
Dak Prescott.

867
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:34,080
D-A-K.

868
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:35,080
Dak.

869
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:38,520
I don't know why you guys always argue over football.

870
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,240
You know the San Francisco 49ers are the best.

871
00:37:41,240 --> 00:37:44,360
Listen, Mr. Quown, ain't nobody like the 49ers,

872
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,200
but yourself.

873
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,960
One time, my mom took me to a Chief's game.

874
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:55,240
And Patrick Mahomes, he signed my football.

875
00:37:55,240 --> 00:37:57,960
Last week, I had to clean up my stoma.

876
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,440
And I stumbled upon a piece in a newspaper

877
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:01,720
about Patrick Mahomes.

878
00:38:01,720 --> 00:38:07,480
And he could have thrown a lot of ball throws,

879
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:08,280
I'll tell you that.

880
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:12,240
Now, John, didn't you say that you cut down from 10 packs a day

881
00:38:12,240 --> 00:38:13,360
to five packs?

882
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,240
Yeah, but I'm back up to seven.

883
00:38:15,240 --> 00:38:19,400
Yo, yo, yo, yo, you guys haven't said nothing to me all week.

884
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,720
We all know it's about the Patriots,

885
00:38:21,720 --> 00:38:23,520
the New England Patriots.

886
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:24,600
They're the Bee's Knees.

887
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:29,880
Tom Brady is my nephew from down the road.

888
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:31,080
You see?

889
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,000
I knew him back from Bean Town, you know?

890
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:34,800
Tom Brady.

891
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:35,480
Tom Brady.

892
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,400
That guy ain't nothing but a washed up pack.

893
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,160
You know who the best quarterback all the time is,

894
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:39,760
don't you?

895
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:40,720
You know who that is?

896
00:38:40,720 --> 00:38:41,920
Roger Starback.

897
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:42,640
Roger Starback.

898
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,520
He got 10 times in the Mellon County.

899
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:45,560
Tom Brady, hey.

900
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:46,400
Tom Brady.

901
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:47,240
Couldn't even last.

902
00:38:47,240 --> 00:38:50,080
Roger Starback, throw him like a football.

903
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:51,800
Had I known you'd say something about it.

904
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:52,640
Roger Starback.

905
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,200
I was Roger Starback, but you.

906
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:55,640
Roger Starback, Roger Starback.

907
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:57,760
That's all you, that's your haircut?

908
00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,280
That's your life.

909
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,320
If you had it, you'd name one of your kids.

910
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,880
It's going to be the kids named Roger.

911
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:08,080
All right, now we need to stop doing all the jiver-jiver

912
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,120
and putting each other down.

913
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:11,000
This is a group.

914
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,680
I thought this was the type of group

915
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,960
where we lift each other up and we talk about other stuff.

916
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,680
All you guys want to talk about is football and all,

917
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,320
joking around with each other.

918
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:21,160
Too much joke.

919
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,880
Now I'll tell you this much, Danny Evans in the house.

920
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,160
Oh hell, I'm going to get out of here.

921
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,880
I ain't going to be here with no rainbow twinkle toes, Danny Evans.

922
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,040
Hey, welcome here.

923
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:33,040
Hey, welcome here.

924
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:37,360
Oh, Lord, I can't believe he done came in this place today.

925
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:38,760
He ain't welcome here.

926
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,360
Hey, Hans, you guys aren't going to run out on the tab.

927
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,160
I won't have to feed my seven kids.

928
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:44,720
No, you just leave it to Mr. Kwan.

929
00:39:44,720 --> 00:39:45,640
That's what happens.

930
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,080
Stick in with the tag.

931
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:47,880
Ain't bad.

932
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:48,520
All right.

933
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,080
And that was our improv segment.

934
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:52,240
Pretty good.

935
00:39:52,240 --> 00:39:52,720
Pretty good.

936
00:39:52,720 --> 00:39:55,920
I always loved that bit of improv because it

937
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,640
challenges me to think outside the box.

938
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,720
But we're going to move into our E-Claire, which

939
00:40:00,720 --> 00:40:01,840
is our positive advice.

940
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,200
And Micah, I think you're up, buddy.

941
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,960
I just want to have a little reminder today.

942
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,240
Communication is really, really important.

943
00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:11,560
And it's really, really hard sometimes, especially when

944
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,200
you're going through really hard times.

945
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,320
But remember, the people around you don't know what they

946
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,280
don't know.

947
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:24,120
And I mildly plan this, but not really.

948
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:27,800
Just like in driving, if you don't put on your blinker,

949
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,800
the person in the lane next to you doesn't know that you

950
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:30,840
want to come over.

951
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:35,120
And so the thing is, a lot of the times, it's really easy not

952
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:35,800
to communicate.

953
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:37,840
And it's really easy to not tell other people your

954
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,840
intentions and just assume that they understand and they

955
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:40,360
know.

956
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:41,360
And then what happens?

957
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,640
You swerve into their lane, and then they flip you off.

958
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:45,240
And you're like, wait, why'd you flip me off?

959
00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:47,280
It's because they weren't expecting that.

960
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,360
And that was a bomb dropped on them.

961
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:55,720
And so the thing is, it's important to communicate and

962
00:40:55,720 --> 00:40:57,320
let other people know what's going on.

963
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,720
Even if you feel like it's minor, it could be very

964
00:40:59,720 --> 00:41:02,160
important to them understanding and being able to help you.

965
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:02,520
Oh, yeah.

966
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:03,480
That's definitely true.

967
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,640
I had to do that today, actually, because sometimes

968
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,280
people just genuinely don't know that they either hurt

969
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:10,880
your feelings or did something wrong.

970
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,760
And it might be something minor to them, or you think

971
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:15,400
that's minor.

972
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,240
But it can be a big deal, because sometimes those

973
00:41:18,240 --> 00:41:22,040
little things can build animosity and build bitterness.

974
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:28,800
But my eclair is more of a leadership advice thing.

975
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,840
And it's kind of more of a sports reference.

976
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:33,160
But build your depth chart.

977
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,200
And what I mean by that is always have people that you

978
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,160
are training to be in the spots.

979
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,920
And we always used to say this at a job that I worked with.

980
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,600
It's always train your replacement, because you

981
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:45,120
never know.

982
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:49,320
Someone might call in sick, or God forbid that you go

983
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,520
through a health crisis, or you have a family emergency

984
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:53,440
that you have to attend to.

985
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,200
But if you have that strong depth chart of people that

986
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,960
know how to do your job, that know how to do the things

987
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:02,760
that you do, then whenever you do have those things pop up,

988
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,480
those people can hop into those spots.

989
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,280
And two, you can take a vacation.

990
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,920
And you can take time off and not worry about what

991
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:10,920
things are being taken care of.

992
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,440
So always train your replacement.

993
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,080
Build your depth chart so you can have those people in

994
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,560
position to take over so that eventually you can be promoted

995
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:19,880
and you're not stuck in one place.

996
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:21,160
Yeah, it's good stuff.

997
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:22,880
It's really important.

998
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:23,560
It's really important.

999
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,760
And also to add to that, also it's important to document

1000
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:28,880
things that you do.

1001
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,800
And this is primarily for job wise.

1002
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,520
But document things that you do all the time so that, again,

1003
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,440
once that replacement happens, you can hand them

1004
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,400
documentation as well that gives them step by step on how

1005
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:41,320
to do it as well.

1006
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:42,280
That helps.

1007
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,840
You don't want to be like that guy that had 30 plus years

1008
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:50,000
of experience and then the trainee got fired because they

1009
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:50,880
couldn't afford to lose them.

1010
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,880
All right, well, I think we're about done.

1011
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,040
About to take this tonal box out to the trash.

1012
00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,040
But hey, we got to tell you all about our stuff.

1013
00:42:59,040 --> 00:42:59,920
And we got to plug it.

1014
00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:01,240
So you know how that goes.

1015
00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:04,520
TVTrashCan.com, TVTrashCan.com.

1016
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,480
We even got more stuff on there.

1017
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,040
So go check it out.

1018
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,560
Facebook, Instagram, YouTube.

1019
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,040
We own everything.

1020
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,560
I know a lot of you all have been listening on Spotify.

1021
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,080
We even on Apple Music.

1022
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,320
So go check us out, all of it.

1023
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,400
And we really appreciate you all listening to us.

1024
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,000
But we've had fun.

1025
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,040
I always enjoyed doing these podcasts, man.

1026
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,040
It's always real cool.

1027
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,280
So we're going to take this tonal box out to the trash.

1028
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:33,080
I'm Chris.

1029
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:33,800
And I'm Micah.

1030
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,440
And this is the Donut Box Podcast.

1031
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:37,440
I'm Chris.

1032
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:38,440
Bye.

1033
00:43:38,440 --> 00:44:07,440
Thank you.
