USA beats Canada and Sean Stricken knocks out Hernandez the Mexican man. My name is Brandon Thrasher at the Daily No Show over there. It's Chuck Iron Fist. How you doing? 1:12 Speaker 2 I mean, you know how I'm doing. I watched it. We, we were, we were not leaving Chattanooga until we watched the end of that game. And then it went to sudden death and we're walking out to the van. We were maybe off the TV for two minutes and I guess USA scored like a minute and 40 seconds into the into overtime. 1:32 So we get in the car and they're all celebrating and crying and stuff and Megan's like, what? What just happened? So we had to go back and watch that. But dude, what a great game. Did you watch the whole thing? 1:41 Speaker 4 No, I actually didn't watch any of it. I showed up over to my dad's house to get my stuff to delete the truck. And they, they had it on in there and they're like, USA just beat Canada. I'm like, hell yeah, America, baby. And that comes, you know what? 12 hours after Sean Strickland wins Fight Night at UFC, knocks out Hernandez, the Mexican man. 2:00 Speaker 2 Yeah, yeah, and it'd been 46 years since United States has won the Olympic gold medal in hockey. What are you, 1980? 2:10 Speaker 4 We played Canada in something like last year or two years ago. Also when we beat them, as I remember, it was a big thing. Florida, Florida beat them. What is that? Is that the NHL Cup or something? 2:18 Speaker 2 I have no idea, I guess. Yeah, you're talking about the NHL, you know, the Stanley Cup. But they did play them in the Olympics last year and they beat them early in the Olympics. But then Canada obviously ended up coming back and beating them. And it's always Sidney Crosby. Dude, that dude, he was on this team. 2:35 I'm like, how old is this guy? He's got to be like 50 something. I don't know. Hockey players do it, go until they're like 55 years old. 2:42 Speaker 4 Yeah, they're just a certain kind of a person to be a hockey player. I feel like you just normally, you know, your kids going to be a hockey player when he just runs in the wall with his head first like all the time and just like falls off shit and breaks stuff. But he just keeps going because those guys are beat the hell up, man. I don't know how their bodies do it either. I feel like it's probably worse than than a football player, I would think. 3:00 Speaker 2 Yeah, we'll do. Jack Hughes. So Jack Hughes is the one who scored the game when the golden, the golden shot, right? He's the one who scored to win. And after the game, they're interviewing him and he's missing his two front teeth and Megan's like, why would why would he not put his teeth in for the interview right? 3:17 Then they start talking about it. He had them knocked out in the game. Like he was still bleeding from when he got his teeth knocked out. One of them was broke in half and the other one was gone. And I'm just like, these dudes are monsters. And he's just up there smiling. Like if I had a broken tooth, I'd be like, yo, coach, I got to go. 3:34 Like, I can't, I don't care if it's a gold medal, I can't be here. I got to get to see a dentist. But that was awesome. And then did you see the emotional ending with the with the jersey of the player who died? 3:46 Speaker 4 No, I, I do not. But real quick, I just, I just love how like last week or two weeks ago, Chuck, I don't give a fuck about the Olympics. I'm not watching anything. I'm not watching. I don't care about Winter Olympics. And now he's coming in with a dressed up in USA jerseys and telling me all about the Olympics that he does not watch. 4:00 and 4:00 in the morning. I'm trying to get to the radio station. That happened 6 times. It was terrible. I. 4:01 Speaker 2 I'm out. This is my jersey that I had that I freaking wore all through high school playing hockey. Now, I do care about hockey. I just don't care about the Olympics. The Winter Olympics are so stupid. They should just have a hockey tournament and call it the Winter Olympics because that's the only sport that matters men's, by the way. 4:17 So anyway, my point is the the guy I and I, I'm going to murder his name. It's like Gatineau or Gastineau. Anyway, this hockey player, he, him and his brother died in a car accident and he was 32 years old yesterday, or it was a year ago or something like that, but he had been on the USA men's hockey team through all these Olympics. 4:38 He would, he would have been, he was, he was playing in the NHNHL. Very good hockey player. So dude, they win the gold. They start skating around with his jersey in their hand. OK, OK, you know, not going to cry. I'm not crying. You're crying. 4:54 Then they're all taking their big famous picture where they're in the middle of the rink that and they, they're all like on top of each other with their gold medals and the American flags. And two of the players leave the crowd of, of players. They go up in the stands and they grab his two kids that are like 5:15 Dude, bro, like, and you know me, I'm driving down the road as I'm watching this. So I'm scratched because I'm, you know, I'm tearing up. My God. But it was, it was a very, it was a very good weekend for the United States. And yeah, I, I couldn't have ended better for that. 5:32 So, yeah, it was exciting. And of course, you know I was in Chattanooga for all that I saw. Owen hard. 5:38 Speaker 4 I saw the I saw that one skater chick lady got her face sliced open. Do you see that? 5:43 Speaker 2 No, you talking about the Chinese? Well, the lady that skates for China, but she's an American. 5:49 Speaker 4 No, I, I don't know about her, but someone got cut in the fucking face. Like she fell down and the skate came and cut her from like the cheek all the way up to her eye socket. It was, it was gnarly. I was like, hell yeah, that's awesome. 5:59 Speaker 2 What was it just her? 6:00 and they skate them out there and they put them in the picture with them and they're holding his jersey. 6:01 Speaker 4 Yeah, yeah, she's the only one. 6:02 Speaker 2 So she cut herself? No. 6:03 Speaker 4 No, no, I mean someone else's skate cutter. But she fell, and she's like, you know, when they're like flinging their kicks, you know? 6:10 Speaker 2 What kind of what kind of trick are you doing? You cut your own face. 6:13 Speaker 4 Fucking Scorpion or some shit like that. But yeah, we're in second place for the medals. I think we've got what, 3 more days? 6:20 Speaker 2 Something like that. It's over, man. 6:22 Speaker 4 I thought it was the 26th it ended. 6:23 Speaker 2 No one but, but that was it. Today was it. Oh. 6:26 Speaker 4 Sunday. Sunday was the last day. 6:28 Speaker 2 That's it, That's it. The US men's hockey is allegedly I just found this out always the last event. 6:34 Speaker 4 Oh, I didn't know that. Well, I guess we didn't win them. We came in second place then. Unless they're still counting medals. I have no idea. But when I checked earlier before, before Canada won, we were in second behind Norway. But we'll see. 6:45 Speaker 2 Yeah, they were talking about how only 38 people have ever United States citizens have ever won a gold medal in hockey. In the history of the world, that's 38 guys. That's all that's ever won. 6:59 Speaker 4 What they just have on that team, fucking 14 that just won. 7:00 and I walk up and I came and I check in. 7:03 Speaker 2 No, they had like 20 so but the only twice that's ever happened was like what 1960 something and the 1980 it hasn't happened since. So but I was it's crazy when you look at I mean when you look at the All Stars, I guess the Canadian team, because dude, if you to watch the game, Canada skated circles around the United States like it wasn't even fair. 7:20 But United States goalie who is actually the goalie for the Winnipeg Jets. He's an All Star. This dude had 35 of 36 goals he blocked in the first or second period or whatever. I'm I'm like. 7:33 Speaker 4 3536 shots on goal. Oh my God. 7:36 Speaker 2 That's only and only one got by him. I was and this dude, Oh, he what's that was? 7:41 Speaker 4 He just fucking massive, just blocking the whole fucking net. 7:43 Speaker 2 He's a monster. I've never seen anything like it. I mean, I'm watching these goals. I mean, dude, it was literally in Canada was shooting the entire game at the United States goal. And every time the US would get a chance, they'd just clear it because they had no shot against these guys. I mean, because it's all All Stars, Canada's all All Stars, you know, Sidney Crosby's and all these other clowns. 8:01 But dude, this goalie was ridiculous. That's why after the after the thing, I'm like, dude, do they have like an MVP? How do you not have an MVP award? Like this dude single handedly saved the United States when you, when you can block. Like I think at the IT had to be over 50 shots he blocked and the Canadian goalie maybe blocked 6. 8:20 You know, like it was crazy. So US had no freaking no hope of winning that thing. But I'm glad they did 'cause I know you would love Canada and if you'd have watched them when they got their silver medals. There is nothing better than the look on somebody's face when they know they should have won. 8:36 Speaker 4 Much Americans. 8:37 Speaker 2 Dude, they were so pissed, every one of them. Like they'd put the little, the little necklace around them, you know, with their chit, with their medal and they didn't even, they would not even crack a smile. They were just like. 8:47 Speaker 4 Yeah, that's like, that's like their one claim to fame besides like Justin Bieber and Drake, you know, that's all they got people, Sir. Justin Bieber, Drake and hockey and we. 8:56 Speaker 2 Dan Aykroyd. They got Dan Aykroyd. 8:59 Speaker 4 Oh yeah, and I think, I think Tate McRae, she's pretty hot right now. I think she's Canadian, but she lives in the US now. We take everything good out of Canada and we take it for ourselves. So fuck you guys. 9:09 The Agility of Squirrels and Hawk Attacks on Pets Oh, man, before we, before we move on there, I, you know, we had our dog the other day where, you know, we're babysitting Bruno Wood Ted sheds dog, right? And he, he treated a squirrel up in her yard. And I started thinking, man, how far you think a squirrel can make it from our yard? Like could he cross the entire US without ever touching the ground? 9:25 You know, 'cause you got the trees connected, then you got power lines. I was just thinking, I was like, damn, I've never thought about that, how much time squirrels can spend in the sky 'cause they probably never have to come down for anything, right? Unless they get I. 9:36 Speaker 2 Don't think you'd have to. I saw when they were out there finishing my deck last week we saw, I'm guessing it was a male and a female squirrel. Male was chasing the female trying to get lucky and dude they went all the way around my backyard and back and never came out of the trees. They were just jumping tree to tree to tree, going higher and lower, fighting each other. 9:54 Dude, they're freaking crazy. I never knew squirrels without a like had that much agility. I always thought they had to come down and gather nuts and then go back up. I didn't know that they could, like, live up there. 10:00 at night with my kids in Chattanooga, find a Mellow Mushroom to go eat and just hang out and wait for a place to check in. It was a nightmare. Now granted, they did get us in they definitely charged me for parking, which I thought was stupid because I should have got that free, I think because they kind of screwed me, but I'll take care of all that. 10:00 and they watched K Pop Demon Hunters until me and Carter got back. And then, yeah. 10:03 Speaker 4 Yeah, no, that's what I, I remember. I think I told that story before I was like 12 or something. I went to Kentucky and me and my cousin went squirrel hunting on his land up there and there's this one fucking squirrel, man. I mean, we were pop shot in like both of us 20 twos in the air and this thing's motherfuking Jason Bourne or something. 10:18 I mean, he's he's doing 30 foot leaps and drops and grabbing limbs and flinging around. We each wasted like like 20 rounds. They're like, that dude deserves to live, I guess. Ended up hitting the ground from like 50 feet up. And then he took off running again back up a tree. But I think that was, that's what I was thinking. 10:33 Like, you know, people always ask me what kind of animal I'd want to be if I could. You know, that's like a daily question I get in my life and I never, I've never thought a squirrel, you know what I mean? Like, you know, he ain't got a lot of predators. You know, he's got to watch out for Hawks and eagles. I think that's about it, right? I mean, snakes ain't really fucking with you unless you get caught lacking on the ground. 10:51 Maybe a dog or a cat. But I think if you stay in the in the limbs, in the power lines, I think you're golden, right? 10:58 Speaker 2 10:58 Speaker 2 I don't know man, Hawks are really dangerous. I've seen, I've seen squirrels get picked up by Hawks. Like they'll just swoop down, grab them. And squirrels don't stand a chance, man. They take them up and then they eat them alive. They just like Peck their stomach out while they're alive, guts and everything. It's nasty. So I'm good, man. 11:14 I'd rather be a hawk than a squirrel. 11:16 Speaker 4 Yeah, but I feel like flying, you know, you don't get to enjoy things as much. Life's just too easy, you know what I mean? Then you got to then you got to worry about other Falcons and Hawks and Eagles because they. You got a big target on you, you know what I mean? I. 11:26 Speaker 2 Don't think so. I don't think I've ever seen an eagle attack another eagle. 11:30 Speaker 4 Oh, they do. They will. They're like territorial. 11:30 PM on Saturday night. 11:30 AM on a Sunday morning? I took a shit. US men's hockey won the gold. 11:32 Speaker 2 You don't even know that. That's not even true. You're just like making that up. How? 11:35 Speaker 4 Often do you Bald eagles are like endangered. You rarely see them. How often do you How many times have you seen a bald eagle? 11:41 Speaker 2 In my life. 11:42 Speaker 4 Yeah, I. 11:43 Speaker 2 Don't know 10. 11:45 Speaker 4 Probably about 23 times, but. 11:48 Speaker 2 Why? What does this have to do with anything about them attacking each other? 11:52 Speaker 4 Well, I'm just saying you don't see it as often because there's not as many out there. Like between us, we've only seen 33 in our, what, 50 or 80 years of life, You know, you just don't see them as much 30. 12:01 Speaker 2 Three, I don't know. I just, I think there's never been a documented case of an eagle killing another bald eagle, but. 12:09 Speaker 4 But there's probably a documented case of an eagle killing like a Falcon or a hawk, because that's more. 12:13 Speaker 2 Common. That's probably and and the owls are supposedly really, really mean. 12:17 Speaker 4 Oh, they're they're they're great predators, but. 12:22 Speaker 2 But I'm just. 12:23 Speaker 4 Thinking, you know, that in that case you wouldn't want to be like a chipmunk. I think squirrels, though, I think they've got, if they, you know, if you put like those coyote collars on them or something, I wonder how long you could get it to last. Like survive what? 12:34 Speaker 2 The heck's a coyote collar? 12:35 Speaker 4 It's a collar with the spikes to go around it. 12:38 Speaker 2 What are you talking about? 12:39 Speaker 4 You put them on your dog or something if you're out in coyote country or or wolf country. 12:43 Speaker 2 But why would you put one on a? 12:44 Speaker 4 Squirrel, because that's where they go for the kills on the neck. Usually that's where they grab them. So the bird goes down to get it and it stabs them. So we could see how long the the squirrel would last. Like we just started putting collars on all of them. 12:50? 12:55 Speaker 2 I don't think any bird is going to care if it grabs a squirrel by the back, takes it up to a tree limb, holds it down with its talents and starts eating its guts. It's not going to be like, oh, it's going to sharp collar on it. I mean, let's get that dollar is going to drop when they cut it in half, it's not even going to be an issue. 13:11 Speaker 4 I thought they I thought they grabbed them by the neck though. 13:13 Speaker 2 Or is that just dogs? I think they just grab them wherever they can get them. Oh dude, did I tell you the story about my sister when her her one of those ugly little dogs with the big eyes Chihuahua. When I say the story about when the eagle or the hawk picked up her Chihuahua. 13:26 Speaker 4 What I've heard about that but I've never seen. I heard they keep your babies and dogs inside. 13:30 Speaker 2 My niece was walking their Chihuahua in their neighborhood on a leash. Bro on a leash and a hawk came down and grab the Chihuahua took it up in the air. My niece let go of the leash because she didn't know what to do. She didn't know what to do. Like the hawk took it up like 40 feet and just dropped it. 13:49 Speaker 4 Oh my God, I guess it. 13:50 Speaker 2 Died absolutely. It was like suffering. My my brother-in-law had to go out there and he didn't know what to do because you know, my niece is bawling her eyes out. She's got like PTSD already from this whole situation. So my brother-in-law goes out there and he's like freaking out because the dog's like, so. 14:07 So he takes it, he carries it back to the house and it's like, got all these holes in it from the talons. It picks you up. It just like pierces you, right? So it's it can't breathe. It's having all these issues. So dude, such a terrible story. Guess what he did? Stomped it with his boot. 14:23 He used a shovel. 14:25 Speaker 4 Oh, top his head off. 14:26 Speaker 2 He, I don't know if he chopped his head off. He just said he put it out. He put it out his misery with a shovel. And I'm like. 14:30 Speaker 4 Was this like in a? 14:31 Speaker 2 Neighborhood or something? Or it was like a subdivision. My freaking my niece. My niece was like, dude, she was traumatized. 14:40 Speaker 4 We asked. It's all our fault for letting go. Why'd she let go? I don't think it would have. 14:43 Speaker 2 Been any better? If she held on it probably would have just ripped the dog in half. 14:49 Speaker 4 You actually just looking up, it's your doggy covering guts and it just flies off with half your dog. You got the other half on the ground. 14:56 Speaker 2 Yeah, the hawk didn't even go back for it and just left it. It was like too much work, you know? 15:00 Speaker 4 Hey, if you think it just wanted to kill it, like it just didn't like that dog, it seemed to say. And it's just like, fuck that dog. So I think they're pretty smart. 15:07 Speaker 2 Have you ever seen a Chihuahua? 15:09 Speaker 4 Yeah, yeah, they're annoying. 15:11 Speaker 2 They're really annoying. So maybe, maybe that's the whole, maybe sometimes birds just come down. They're like, you know what, I'm going to take this guy for a ride. Just take him up 40 feet and just drop him. I. 15:21 Speaker 4 Just fucking ripped him open and just let his guts fall out, man. That's fucking insane. That's pretty crazy. But yeah, I don't know. We should, we should. I've always wanted a baby squirrel to raise it as my own, but but at it's, it's hard to find them, you know, they don't fall on the streets as much as they used to. 15:37 Speaker 2 You see them, you see those videos on Instagram and like, you know, TikTok where these people like rescue, I don't know, squirrels, porcupines, freaking armadillos, They have everything, these people. 15:48 Speaker 4 Porcupines just seems like a bad idea and armadillos are weird looking. 15:51 Speaker 2 They are weird looking now. I, I wouldn't do AI guess I'd do a squirrel. I mean, the, the ones on Instagram, they look really cool. Then chill. They just, like, jump on your shoulder and they, like, hang out and they eat and, you know, you can give them nuts and. But I don't know, I there's a lot of better animals. 16:06 Like, you know, Mike. Mike's. Mike's moving to Florida. Oh, is he? Yeah. Guess what he's giving away? 16:12 Speaker 4 Squirrel. 16:13 Speaker 2 Nope. Closed pot bellied pig. Pot bellied pig. 16:18 Speaker 4 Why is he giving it away? I think the I think pigs are native to Florida, aren't they? 16:22 Speaker 2 I I don't know if they're native, but I know that, he said. 16:22 Speaker 2 I I don't know if they're native, but I know that, he said. So when they move down there, they're not allowed to buy a house right away because they something with, because he does, you know, he, he, he does work on cars. He's a, he's a mechanic. 16:36 Speaker 4 Yeah, he's. 16:37 Speaker 2 So he's moving down there and starting his own business down there. And he said that if you don't have a year of showing, like, what your income is going to be, you won't be able to get the mortgage that you want. Right. Because his wife works. Yeah, his wife works for UPS, so she can show her salary. 16:53 But since he's quitting his job here and starting his own business, he's not going to have that. So he's like, we got to rent for like a year or two. 16:59 Speaker 4 Why would he not just buy the house now with his current job and then once he gets down there to get a new job? 17:03 Speaker 2 Because he has a house here that he's paying on that he's got to sell. 17:06 Speaker 4 Oh well, why don't they get like a camper? Just sell it and find one on the way down. 17:09 Speaker 2 OK, that doesn't solve the problem of having a freaking £250 potbelly pig. 17:15 Speaker 4 Oh, I for some reason Potbelly, I think it meant like small like a miniature 1 like you. 17:19 Speaker 2 Put so according to Mike, it's a potbelly. I think he got screwed because Mike gets screwed a lot on things like he's a very trusting man, right? This pig is massive, bro. And and he had it inside the house because they said, oh, potbelly pigs can live inside the house. 17:34 And I go over there one day and I walk into like their, you know what their mud room? Like there's a hole from the mud room into the garage. Those two rooms don't connect by a door. That pig ate its way through the wall, through the insulation into the garage. 17:56 And he said all he would do is take it's nasty snotty nose and it just push it up against the drywall and just like rub it and rub it and rub it until it got really soft and then it'd bang its head through the freaking. I'm like, dude, this is like the smartest animal in the world, but dude. And he's like, and he's like, yeah, so we're not going to be able to take it with us because we're renting, bro. 18:14 Why would you even have that in your house when you're not renting that? But he thinks it's a pot bellied pig. But I don't think pot bellied pigs are £300. 18:20 Speaker 4 I thought they stayed small but maybe not. I don't know. It's probably just a fucking wild boar that was a baby. 18:25 Speaker 2 Somebody was like, would you like this pig? Me pig, me piglet? And he's all like, Oh yeah, that sounds great. 18:31 Speaker 4 Man, that thing does look tiny. He's going to stay that. I was like, Oh yeah, man, you're only going to get a little bigger about it. OK, man, I'll take it. I'll take it. 18:38 Speaker 2 He's like, he's like Bandit, get up here. Oh, there's Bandit. He only weighs 100 lbs. Maybe you're like bro, that thing £500 like he's in, like he's in complete disbelief. 18:47 Speaker 4 Did he not want to eat it? 18:49 Speaker 2 That's what I said. He said he can't name it because he or he can't eat it because he named it. Yeah. 18:55 Speaker 4 Could he, could he trade it to a butcher for like some already cut meat that didn't come from the pig because. 19:00 Speaker 2 You know what's embarrassing is he's been trying to give it away and him and his wife are doing interviews for possible Yeah, to make sure that it's not going to be. 19:08 Speaker 4 Eating some. 19:09 Speaker 2 Yeah. 19:10 Speaker 4 Oh man, why don't you just take it, eat it, just say it died, say a hot. Got it. 19:14 Speaker 2 I did came. 19:14 Speaker 4 Down and got it. 19:16 Speaker 2 I did tell him I would take it and he immediately said I know what you would do with it. I'm not giving it to you because, you know, as soon as he goes to Florida, game on, right, He ain't coming back. So no, no, just take some take some videos of the pig and just like keep him in the phone that way. And he's like, hey, man, send me a pic picture, send me a video of the pig. 19:32 It's like, oh, here it is. You know, like. 19:33 Speaker 4 Two years later, yeah, you run out of pig pictures. You got Germany fucking making you got ones, Yeah. 19:38 Speaker 2 Me and the pig freaking out just going for a walk in the neighborhood. 19:43 Speaker 4 19:43 Speaker 4 Yeah, I remember doing that with Flat Stanley back in the day in school. You got it was a book, Flat Stanley. And then you send it all over the place and he hangs out with your grandparents and whatnot. They still do that? No, no. Oh damn well. 19:54 Speaker 2 No, you remember you wanted me to do that in in Europe. 19:58 Speaker 4 With with Flat Stanley. 19:59 Speaker 2 Yeah, with my kids, you were saying, oh, you got to do like a Flat Stanley. 20:02 Speaker 4 Oh, that'd be cool. Yeah, yeah, should do that. That would be a good idea. But no, I like Flat Stanley. But last thing on squirrels and we'll move on. 20:10 Planning Charity Events and Billboard Advertising for the Show You know, recently I'm. 20:11 Speaker 2 Pretty sure, I'm pretty sure you're autistic today. I don't know why it's it's so like you've been waiting all weekend to talk to somebody about squirrels. 20:22 Speaker 4 Well, I, I just observed things, man. And the the other thing about squirrels is I don't see as many dead on the road as I used to. Are they have they evolved now? Because I mean, the first car came out 200 something years ago, right? Or no, not that, not that long, probably what, 100 something? 20:39 Speaker 2 About 120 years, let's say. 20:41 Speaker 4 Yeah, and the squirrels lifespan is probably, what, five years? 20:41 Speaker 4 Yeah, and the squirrels lifespan is probably, what, five years? So that's been a lot of generations. I mean, that's like 30 generations of squirrels. Do you think they've learned by now that cars are bad? I mean, or, Or do you see just as many dead squirrels now as you did like 15 years ago? 20:55 Speaker 2 OK, if that was possible, an evolution took place. I I don't believe in evolution. Yeah, I I 100% do not believe in any sort of evolution. I just think we. 21:03 Speaker 4 Adapt to our environment. 21:06 Speaker 2 Not anymore. I, I feel like once, once you evolve to the point you're going to evolve and that's it. If that, if we, if we were continuing to evolve, then we would all have Iqs of 300, right? We would all be way stronger, way faster, or way fatter, I don't know. But either way, I just don't. 21:21 I'm not. I'm not an Evolution fan. That's a conversation for another day. 21:24 Speaker 4 I think that also is because our lifespan's longer, though. Like squirrels, they don't. They live five years. We live 10, you know, 20 times that or 18 times. 21:30 Speaker 2 So maybe they, so you're saying maybe they used to evolve faster than we do? 21:33 Speaker 4 Oh, they just pass it down the knowledge be like mother was killed by this thing and then then before you know it, 20 years later, it's great great great grandma was killed by this thing and the story's been told down the down the. 21:43 Speaker 2 Squirrel So how do you explain deer getting smoked more? 21:47 Speaker 4 Than ever they live longer. 21:50 Speaker 2 So they just they don't pass down the knowledge. 21:52 Speaker 4 Yeah, cuz I mean 50 years old, you know, he gonna pass it down to, you know, if the generate if they only they don't last 50, but they probably last like 15 years, probably three times as long as a squirrel. So there's just not as many generations has happened so far. 22:04 Speaker 2 So why? So why has nobody told mosquitoes to stop eating or biting humans and only eat or only bite animals? 22:11 Speaker 4 They don't live long enough to to relay the message they're they're life spans like 3 days. 22:14 Speaker 2 OK, you can't. You can't have it both ways, dude. They're. 22:19 Speaker 4 Not mammals, all right? First off, they're not mammals. I'm just going with mammals here, all right? Those are insects. They're retarded. They don't know what's going on. 22:26 Speaker 2 OK, I got to think of another mammal that lives a shorter period of time than a squirrel. That's Dumber. God, let me think. Dumbest mammal that lives less than five years. 22:41 Crap, I don't think I can think of 1. 22:44 Speaker 4 See, look at this. 22:44 Speaker 4 See, look at this. All right, so continuing crap. 22:47 Speaker 2 Possum. 22:49 Speaker 4 I don't see a lot of the possums either. 22:54 Speaker 2 OK, OK, let's say your theory is true. Go ahead. 22:56 Speaker 4 I'm just saying, have you, have you seen a decline in dead squirrels on the road in the past 15 years? That before on the road, my dad lives on where I grew up. I mean, there'd be at least three dead on the road every time. And when I started driving, I would hit probably, you know, 3 or 4 a week. But now I do. 23:12 I haven't had a squirrel in, I don't know how long. It's been a minute. And I've been driving for a while. 23:16 Speaker 2 I've spent my entire life trying. OK, I know this sounds terrible. Don't judge me. Megan hates this. But I, I don't know why I've spent my entire life trying to kill a squirrel, my car, like I, I will swerve at a squirrel to try to hit it because I know I can't One time. 23:31 And I told you it was the time that I was riding my, my Kawasaki Ninja when I had my, my, my motorcycle and I had a squirrel and I had spent my entire life trying to kill a squirrel with a car. Never got one that they're like little ninjas, right? They just jump out of the way. But the one freaking time I'm flying on my freaking motorcycle, I hit a squirrel and I almost died because of it. 23:54 And I was like, bastards, you know, They got me. 23:54 And I was like, bastards, you know, They got me. So that's it. 23:59 Speaker 4 What happens when you live in the cities? You rarely see eagles and you ain't killed no squirrels. How many deer have you killed with a vehicle? 24:07 Speaker 2 Probably three. Damn. 24:09 Speaker 4 I'm I'm about about 1111 deer. It's. 24:13 Speaker 2 Because you live out in the sticks. I only, and I only like the last one I hit was up in Blue Ridge. 24:17 Speaker 4 Yeah, yeah, I mean, deer country is where you hit them normally, but sometimes it's fun. Sometimes it's like, oh shit, my car is all fucked up and it's 24:31 Speaker 2 Mean hitting deer? That does suck dude. 24:33 Speaker 4 Especially in Hyundai Santa Fe when they hit the windshield and then I put 3 radiators in that sum. Bitch man, that is terrible. Yeah, they can kill a lot better. 24:40 Speaker 2 And they can kill you. The deer will kill you if you hit you the wrong way. 24:42 Speaker 4 I ain't got killed by 1 yet, but I'll let you know if that ever happens. 24:42 Speaker 4 I ain't got killed by 1 yet, but I'll let you know if that ever happens. You're on your way. You're close. Yeah. If you're driving a car, there's a good chance you'd die. Yeah, but the worst one was when it went up when I was in my lifted truck when I first started driving, and the deer got all caught between like the fucking steering, the tie rod ends and the axle and everything. 24:59 It was dragging, man. There's fucking hair and blood everywhere. It's terrible. And the brake started sounding weird after that. I got it fixed though. 25:04 Speaker 2 Have you ever, have you ever had a squirrel get in your engine and and drive your car for like a long drive with the squirrel in there? 25:11 Speaker 4 I've never had that happen. 25:13 Speaker 2 Are you serious? 25:14 Speaker 4 Not that I know of. 25:15 Speaker 2 So that happened, that happened to me. I, my, my GMCI had AI freaking had all like I opened up the hood and I'm like, what the heck is that? It was like a nest in my in my engine area, like in the top by the battery. So I cleared it all out and I can't remember what I was doing. 25:30 I was doing something in my truck. I was having something wrong with it. It's like a month later, open it up again. I got another nest. I'm like, what the heck, dude? So freaking. I clear it all out. Well, I put something I can't what I put down. I put something I taped over the area or something. I put something up there. Anyway, it was probably a month later. 25:47 I'm driving down the road. Dude, I just smelled like I turned the vents on. I just smelled something weird, you know, I didn't know what it was. We're going to open it up. There's fur all over the freaking. What's that belt thing? 25:59 Speaker 4 Serpentine. 26:00 Speaker 2 That there was just fur all in there and I'm like, what is that? And I'm like digging it out. It looked like deer fur, right. And then I, you know, like there's no way a deer got in here like a. 26:09 Speaker 4 Small deer, man. 26:12 Speaker 2 A squirrel or a deer climbed in my engine compartment, but yeah, they'll do that for warmth. So yeah, I never, I don't know. I don't know whatever happened to him, but I saw remnants of him. But it was definitely him because I've never had another nest in my engine. 26:26 Speaker 4 Damn. Probably hiding from a hawk or something like that. Closest thing I had to that was I was, I was like 15 or 14. Me and my buddy were trying to get my dad's 94 Thunderbird running and we opened the fucking the hood and I'm looking in there and there's like, you know, you got all your coolant pipes and everything and your vacuum lines and whatnot. 26:43 I'm like, that fucking coolant pipe's moving. And then turned out to be a big old fucking snake. So we just shut the hood and cranked that motherfucker up and relaxed them to stress. 26:51 Speaker 2 Oh my God. 26:53 Speaker 4 It's scary too because once I saw it was fucking staring right at us too. I'm like, oh fuck. After I saw him moving, that guy was just like a rat snake. Not like a copperhead or anything. You got a lot of copperheads around there, but got that thing out of there. So it was always sketchy driving in it again too, but sold it to a Mexican like fucking three years later. 27:09 One of those parts. Guys, this beginning English, man, no English. It was a very hard transaction but just got to hold up the numbers, how much you want and they know. 27:19 Speaker 2 So. 27:21 Speaker 4 All right, well have you listen to it on iHeartRadio app, podcast or Spotify?

Hey, I can only my I only have so much like brain space to have conversations with all these bands. 28:34 I think I got the one. OK, I think we're good. I pray we're good, but I I think we're good. And if not, we're going to be OK. We got a, we got a long list to go through still. 28:44 Speaker 4 We're going to have 10 bands show. 28:44 Speaker 4 We're going to have 10 bands show. They're all going to want 10,000 each and we're going to be like all right, well, we're. 28:48 Speaker 2 Going on a three day. 28:49 Speaker 4 Party guys, you all are trapped in here. You got to eat all the food, buy all the beer so this then you can pay for it. 28:54 Speaker 2 You know what I the best part about some of the bands I'm talking to now is, you know what money they want, Brandon? None. Nothing. That's that's when you know. No, no, But they're bigger than any band I talk to. And I'm sitting here like, that's what it should be, right? I mean, this whole thing's for charity. 29:09 Like, if we do these events, we're not making any money. We're doing it for charity. And we want to raise ten $15,000 for charity. Well, you have to have a band that's on board with that. It's like, hey, we're just going to go. We're not going to make anything, but we get to hang out with the coolest people in the world. You know who that is? 29:27 Jesus and us, Right. Yeah. And John Daly. What? 29:33 Speaker 4 He might come, I don't know, so I'm going to ask him. 29:38 Speaker 2 You know what? I bet you John Daly would come. 29:38 Speaker 2 You know what? I bet you John Daly would come. If we invited John Daly, we said we're going to give him 4 cases of beer. I bet you he'd come for leukemia. What do you think? 29:47 Speaker 4 Yeah, yeah, we got to find his address, send him a letter. Is that how you do that still? 29:50 Speaker 2 Or do you got to How would you send him a letter? 29:53 Speaker 4 He got we got post offices across the street from the house. I think I sent it through there and they got it. 29:58 Speaker 2 All right, you're in charge of getting. You're in charge of getting John Daly. OK, I'll get the band. You get John Daly. 30:04 Speaker 4 All right, what if you want the money? 30:07 Speaker 2 Tell him, tell him what I told this last band. I can pay you, but anything I pay you does not go to leukemia. 30:16 Speaker 4 Be like, all right, so you need 2000. That'll be about 223 children dead, but that's. 30:21 Speaker 2 Fine, exactly. 30:25 Speaker 4 That's fine. That's what that's what you want to sacrifice it so. 30:28 Speaker 2 So, yeah, so we have, but we have everything under control, man. I know we we tell you guys everything because we like to be open books and you guys know everything is going on. But we got it right now. Don't worry. I don't don't panic with us. We're not panicking. The other thing is I got another. 30:41 Speaker 4 E-mail today. Uh oh. Good, bad medium. 30:44 Speaker 2 Let's just say it's from Lamar Bortz and they would like a down payment on the Billboard so they can. Now I have not responded because he was, he was very nice. But I I did think about maybe moving the goal post a little bit. 31:01 Speaker 4 Pushing it back, is that what you mean? 31:03 Speaker 2 Kinda. How do you feel? Well, no, no, no. I guess we'd be pushing it forward. 31:07 Speaker 4 That means we got to pay quicker. 31:09 Speaker 2 No, no, I don't think you're picking up the analogy. What I mean is we got to make it easier for this to happen, OK? So I think maybe we float the idea of instead of the Billboard being on I-85, we put it somewhere in the sticks. 31:28 Speaker 4 Oh, Southside, Yeah, do Southside with me so people in the hometown can see it. 31:31 Speaker 2 And it'd be like 300 bucks, you know? 31:35 Speaker 4 I mean, that might be better if we just get like, you know, like three $300 ones like 1000 a month. 31:40 Speaker 2 31:40 Speaker 2 OK, OK. We don't have a sponsor. I don't want to spend anything. 31:43 Speaker 4 I thought we had a lunch meeting somewhere, someplace fancy that I got to wear a Jewish hat so I can wear a hat. 31:48 Speaker 2 Yeah, next Friday. We have a lunch meeting next for this Friday. Jeez, time's flying this Friday. Yes, you got to. You're not wearing a hat. OK. Anyway, Yes, but that I don't think that's for the Billboard. That's for an actual title sponsor, the show, but I don't think he wants to be the Billboard guy. 32:06 But maybe we maybe we float a cheat. Maybe we, I, I just have to have an answer for the freaking billboard dude. Like this guy is crazy. And now he's starting to get a little aggressive. How much is the down? 32:16 Speaker 4 Payment. 32:18 Speaker 2 You got to pay for half the boards. What is it 32:21 Speaker 4 Oh, OK, 50%, we're doing OK. All right. When did he send you that message? 32:26 Speaker 2 Yesterday. 32:28 Speaker 4 OK, we're good. 32:28 Speaker 4 OK, we're good. We're good. Yeah. It was a weekend. It was fine. All right, We get busy schedule, we'll get we'll get back to him before, you know, tell him we're we're meeting with our people Friday, OK? 32:37 Speaker 2 OK, but we're not, we don't have any people. We don't have any guy on the hook for this. 32:41 Speaker 4 Look, I'm prepared to do something crazy at the restaurant if the guy signs with us on Friday. 32:46 Speaker 2 OK, All right, I'll, I'll let him know that we have a plan. Well, I have. 32:53 Speaker 4 Concepts of a plan. 32:56 Speaker 2 I mean, what he's going to say? What is your plan? Well, I mean, I don't want to divulge all the details, but let's just say that me and Brandon will be together in a room with a rich guy. 33:07 Speaker 4 At a nice place, and Brandon will seal the deal by doing something stupid there if he had to spend the night in Sandy Springs Police jail, you know. 33:16 Speaker 2 Middle, middle of the lunch. Brandon's going to stand up and be like, did you just touch my penis? Did you just touch my penis? And the guy's like, what? No, that that'll be $2500, Sir. I'm telling everybody. 33:28 Speaker 4 This guy's here to meet a 12. 33:29 Speaker 2 Year old boy. 33:33 Speaker 4 Blackmail. Good old blackmail. 33:34 Speaker 2 Oh, that, that sponsor's going to love that bit. 33:37 Speaker 4 Nah, Nah, he is he listening right now? Tell him to start. 33:38 Speaker 2 Listening after Friday? Oh God. Well. 33:42 Speaker 4 He didn't say any names, so they don't know who it is. And we've got three, We got 4 meetings this week, all right? So you're not going to know which one it was, all right. 33:49 Speaker 2 That the one we're talking about is with the band that we hate. 33:52 Speaker 4 Yeah, bowling with Cox. All right, All right, we'll go on getting two. 33:58 Hilton Hack, Mosh Pits, and Political Rants at a Concert What the check? What the? Chuck. Yeah. You want to Chuck me? Chuck it real hard. 34:05 Speaker 3 Chuck me, Chuck me. Chuck me. Chuck me. 34:07 Speaker 4 34:07 Speaker 4 I'm full of Chuck. Oh Chuck, Chuck it real good. What the Chuck DJ in vision? 34:15 Speaker 2 Are. 34:16 Speaker 4 You drinking liquor right now? 34:19 Speaker 2 This is actually part of my what? The Chuck? So this is Chattanooga. It's up from the Chattanooga Distillery. It's like a bourbon. 34:29 Speaker 4 I'll say it can be bourbon, can't it? It's. 34:31 Speaker 2 Not that good. What? 34:32 Speaker 4 Well, that's probably because it can't be bourbon. 34:35 Speaker 2 Why can't it be bourbon? 34:36 Speaker 4 A bourbon was only made in Kentucky. 34:40 Speaker 2 Is that true? 34:41 Speaker 4 Pretty sure. Pretty sure that's what makes bourbon if it's made in Kentucky. 34:46 Speaker 2 Man, they really ripped me off. 34:47 Speaker 4 Where is bourbon from that is legally required to be produced in? 34:55 Speaker 2 34:55 Speaker 2 Kentucky. All right. Thank you. Chattanooga. I was in Chattanooga. I was. I was in Chattanooga, Kentucky. Did I not tell you that? 35:03 Speaker 4 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I know that place. 35:06 Speaker 2 Anyway, so as you guys all know, this whole weekend was set up for a very good bonding trip for me and my son. My my son has never been to a concert he's been complaining about never been to a concert in his entire life. His sisters have gone and seen Laney Wilson, Ke$ha, you know, Morgan Wallin, all whatever. 35:25 So he's just been getting robbed, dude robbed. But I said look, if I'm going to take you to a concert, it's going to be one that I know is good, that I enjoy the band and you can have a great time. So I get tickets, see Dropkick Murphy's right? Well, I've seen dude. I've been going to Dropkick Murphy shows for 20 years. 35:41 I've probably seen him 15 times there for a while. I think he went through a 10 year period hitting him every year with my buddies. We'd go to a different city, see Dropkicks and then bounce. So I was like, this is going to be great, you know? Well, of course, last minute Megan and the girls were like, yeah, we're going, right. 35:57 So they wanted to come and crash our party, which is fine. You know, we, we got a we're at Hampton Inn and Suites. The rooms were plenty big and the girls came and, dude, it was great. We get there on, what was it Friday night and we go get ready to check in and, and it's like 36:16 The guy goes, yeah, I can't, I can't help you. All the systems are down with Hilton and I said, what does that mean? He goes, we can't check you in. There's no way to check you in. I'm like, OK, yeah, good one. And he's like, no, I'm serious. He's like, we got hacked and nobody in Hilton can check anybody in right now. 36:34 Fucking idiots. And I'm like, there's no way this is true. So I get on my Hilton Honors app, I'm trying to freaking argue this and I'm like looking because I'm trying to get a, because they have a thing on your Hilton Honors app where you can just like check in. Essentially, you'll get your room given to you and then you'll just walk up and use your phone to get into your room. 36:50 It wasn't working. So I called Hilton Honors and I said, hey, you know, I need to get this taken care of. And the ladies like, I can't help you right now because all the systems are down. And I said, oh, in Chattanooga. And she's like, no worldwide, like every Hilton property in the world on Friday night was unable to check people in for two hours. 37:13 Speaker 4 Damn, yeah. 37:14 Speaker 2 You know it's. 37:15 Speaker 4 It was crazy how much money they lost and the the fine they're going to get. Because I looked it up, we were talking about last time that happened, they got fined like $12 million for getting hacked. Isn't that funny? 37:24 Speaker 2 I can't even imagine because I'm I'm over here going. 37:24 Speaker 2 I can't even imagine because I'm I'm over here going. Well I'm getting reimbursed because I now have to stay out until 37:48 But anyway, so I thought that was interesting. We get the hack. I call Brandon. I'm telling him like, dude, this is crazy. This is how the world's going to end, right? They're going to hack all the hotels. People are going to lose their minds for killing people because I was pissed. OK, but anyway, so we get done wake up the next day, hit the pool, heated pool. Good to go take the kids to the the climbing park, which is one of the greatest things to do in Chattanooga. 38:09 It's just all climbing. So they, you know, rock climbing and things like that. It's about $22.00 a kid, which isn't bad. I send Brandon the pictures and he's like, oh, Savannah looks thrilled. 38:19 Speaker 4 She left that stupid rock with stupid. I got to climb it. What the fuck? 38:23 Speaker 2 Bro, having two daughters and doing anything like that, I mean I spent most of my day picking Sydney up off the mat. She was strapped in to the cable laying on her back just going, this is so stupid. And and I was like, look, I'll give you 20 bucks if you make it to the top. 38:43 She'd run full speed up to the rock, get 3 up and then jump off, fall on her back and just lay there and be like, it's impossible. All right. And of course Carter's over there and he's like, hey, Sydney, watch this. And he's like, he climbs the same one and then he comes down. He's like, it's not impossible. 38:58 And she's like, I hate this place so much. Right? Dude, it was, it was 2 hours. I'll never forget. It was so much fun. So anyway, we get done there and we go to this place called the Chattanooga Choo Choo, which is where the the whiskey and all distillery and all that's at. But they're great restaurants, great venue. 39:13 That's where the venue is going to be for the drop kick Murphy show. It was just awesome, man. So we go down there, we do some shopping, do some they have like flea markets, things like that different. Megan did a wine tasting. They had antique shops. It was just really cool. So, you know, comes time to go to the concert. 39:29 OK, now I've thought everything through Brandon. I've got my son in a bright yellow shirt. It's a Puma like soccer shirt. And I'm thinking if I lose him, I'll find him, right? Because, you know, he's in the shirt. So we get there a little bit early. 39:46 I take him, I get him a chocolate milkshake. I make him take a shot of Red Bull. Like I'm like, dude, I got to get him going. This is going to be awesome. So he's really nervous. So I've been talking about the mosh pit. I've been talking about, you know, he gets there and it's all freaking what looks like a biker gang out front and, like, cut off, like, leather vests. 40:02 And he's like those. He's like, are those the people that are going? I'm like, yeah. He's like, Oh my God. Right. So we get inside and this band, Haywire's plan, which I can only explain Haywire's being one of the heaviest bands I've ever heard in my life. Where you can't understand a word he's saying and he's just like, oh, right now people are just freaking losing their minds and all that. 40:25 He's watching my sons watching. He'll just punch each other in the face. People are bleeding everywhere. Like it's just, it's chaos, right Attack. 40:32 Speaker 4 He's in the air, he's flying all over the place. 40:34 Speaker 2 Security's grabbing people and just carrying them out, and Carter's like, this is awesome. I said I know, right? So I said, hey man, you got to get in the mosh bed, but don't tell your mom if it goes bad. Just like, tell her you weren't in the mosh pit, whatever. 40:48 Speaker 4 Just down there punching people in the nuts, like, yeah, yeah. 40:52 Speaker 2 So all these people, like we met all these people that are around us and these two girls that were kind of odd with the way they were treating Carter, like they're rubbing his back and stuff and. 41:02 Speaker 4 They were like, Oh yeah, they're trying to take them. 41:04 Speaker 2 Well, it's kind of weird. I mean, they're like 1 was 42, the other one was like 36. And they're like taking pictures with him and like rubbing his back. I mean, Carter liked it, but I'm like, this is weird. I feel it felt like that teacher scenario that we've been talking about. You know what I mean? 41:16 Speaker 4 I let it happen or do I stop I. 41:17 Speaker 2 Should have looked, I should have looked at him, but like, so who do you guys? Where do you guys teach? You know, because obviously they were teachers, right, Because it was weird. So anyway, they're they're talking to him and and you know, dropkick Murphy start their set and everything's going to freaking Johnny. I hardly knew that. Just hard black out. 41:33 They're doing those good songs. And I said, Carter, Are you ready? He's like, I'm ready. He takes his hat off, he takes his glasses off and he gives them to me and there's this huge dude. He's a freaking monster and he's next to me and he goes, you going in with him, dad? And I said, you know, I think this is something he needs to do on his own. 41:50 I feel like this is one of those moments in life, right? And he goes, you want me to take him in? I said, yeah, it's fine. I said, watch his back, Just make sure he doesn't get killed. I mean, that's I, I, if he comes back with a bruise or hurt a broken bone, I'm in a lot of trouble. So I videotaped the whole thing of Carter going in and getting in the mosh pit, his first mosh pit ever. 42:08 And he made the whole loop and came back out unscathed. And dude, it was like winning the lottery to this kid. Like, he was so excited. He talked about it all the way back to the hotel. He's like, dude, I was in a mosh pit at 11 years old. I said legit, like, I can't tell you I ever did that. 42:24 I never did. I was seeing Boys Demand and Montel Jordan at 11. So I was borderline gay, right? But not him. So anyway, everything's going great. And then this is where this whole story turns, Brandon. So as we all know, there's a lot of political things that are going on in the United States right now. 42:41 Speaker 4 Oh, really? 42:42 Speaker 2 Yeah. And I am not one that wants to get on that and I don't really care. I'm going to say this. I told everybody that we were around. Well, let me tell you what happened. First, wait around. 42:55 Speaker 4 Who are you talking about? Your families. 42:56 Speaker 2 Or no, just like the strangers that we were all just clumped in there to go. I mean, dude, there was like thousands of people. We're all just pushed up. So I got I got Carter to the front row. 43:03 Speaker 4 At the concert. We're back at the concert. Oh, OK. 43:05 Speaker 2 So we got to the front row, but we're at the concert and Ken Casey gets up. He's the lead singer. He's the lead singer. And he goes, you know, America is a nation of immigrants, and America was founded by immigrants. 43:20 Speaker 4 The good ones. 43:21 Speaker 2 Well, and he says he goes, I, we are a punk band that will never not say what we think. And I just want to let everyone know, F Donald Trump, F Donald Trump, F, you know, he's doing this whole like, F Donald Trump thing. 43:37 And I'm looking around and I'm like, dude, we're in Tennessee, right? Like it was about. And it was weird because about 20% of the people there were like, yeah, yeah, you know, And I started looking at those people. Didn't know there were trans there but I saw him when he said that. 43:54 Speaker 4 Very. 43:55 Speaker 2 Quickly at that point I spotted him and I was like, we got a, we got a trans crowded A dropkick. This is interesting, right? And then he's like, and I want to talk about ice and he starts getting into ice and he starts talking about how they're all pieces of crap and how F ice F this. And he's doing this whole like, you know, like, like monologue about how crappy the United States is, right? 44:19 And I'm just sitting there and and I'm like, dude, I've been to, you know, 20 years of dropkick Murphy show and I'm sitting there with my 11 year old son and I'm going, that sucks. This is the last one I'll ever go to, you know, and and so at the end of the show, no, it's just because of their, I mean, the political message. 44:35 I don't care about your message. Like I don't care if you believe a certain thing, but don't don't preach to me when I'm at your show, when I paid money to be here and I've been paying money for 20 years. And you're going to preach to me about politics and about the president. Like, I don't care if he was to get up there and be like, F Joe Biden, I'm not going to be up there chanting F Joe Biden. 44:54 Like why it, it makes no sense. It's divisive. And, and you're sitting here looking like, dude, you guys, this band's been around for 25 years. Why do you want to divide your fan base? Right? And, and so at the end of the show, Carter's up front, Ken Casey comes down and he freaking gives Carter 5. 45:11 And he walks down a little bit and he comes back to Carter and he's like giving him five and shaking his hand and, you know, all this stuff. And, and Carter's like, Dad, I want to go backstage and meet him. And I was like, Nah, you know, like I'm done with these guys. And it's just, so I thought it was interesting that that happened at 45:34 And, you know, and you know what happened at 45:44 Speaker 4 Oh hell yeah. 45:45 Speaker 2 And when they interviewed those Olympians, every one of those hockey players said the same thing. I'm just glad we're able to do this for our country. We love our country. And we did this for all the people in the United States, blah, blah, blah, blah, right? Like it was so political and so much more, I guess, non divisive, right? 46:03 And it brought these people. 46:03 And it brought these people. And so I just thought it was interesting. Over a 12 year, I told Megan over a 12 hour period, I went from going to one of the most divisive things I've ever seen in my life to seeing what we saw today that has not happened or yesterday has not happened in 46 years. And so that was kind of a odd situation. 46:20 And because we're walking back that night to the hotel and Carter goes, Hey, dad, why did it look like you weren't having fun at some of the during some of the concert? And I was like, I was just shooting around. I know that was not it. No, that was not it. He he noticed that though. He's like, I think I saw a trans. 46:36 I was like, I saw, I've never seen that. And all my years going to see drop kicks. I've never seen trans. But I think, you know, because your political views, you you vocalize those, you bring in those people and chop your Dick off. I guess so, yeah. 46:52 We were walking back though, when he said that and he said, you know, I just, I feel like you weren't having fun at some of the concert. I was like, no, I was man. I was just, you know, just making sure that, you know, you were good and make sure you I didn't want to talk. He he didn't even notice. He still doesn't notice. But he he did get his, his, his, his, his plate full of FF bombs. 47:08 That was that was hell yeah. Yeah. He's like Uncle Brandon must love these guys, right? Yeah. And I heard this. 47:17 Speaker 4 Man, I don't even love him man. 47:19 Speaker 2 Brandon loves Haywire Carter. He's like, yeah, I could tell. Yeah, I could tell. 47:24 Speaker 4 Man, hell yeah. Well, that sounds like a good time. So what did the what did the rest of your family do, the women Pope when you were found there? 47:32 Speaker 2 So they went, they went back to the climbing place for Round 2 because we got a whole, we got an all day pass. It's like as much as you can climb, right, Come and go. So they went back, did that. Then afterwards they went and got pedicures. Then after that, Savannah had to go to this place to get a fresh like a local pizza joint to get a slice. 47:50 She did that. And then they went to a Thai restaurant, ate Thai and I think that's it. They got back around 9/30, 48:05 And that was it. It was, I mean, dude, again, it was a great, it was a great thing. I, you know, first, first concert with my kid. I can't, I can never because there's only three kids in the whole place. I can't, I can't take that away from it. But I just don't understand the politics, dude. I just don't, I don't understand why these bands are doing this. 48:22 I mean, they're like buzz kills, right? 48:24 Speaker 4 Yeah, I mean, yeah, I don't know. I mean, you know, Green Day likes doing that too, but they've been singing, you know, faggot in America for fucking ever since the song came out. 25 years. But I don't think they ever made it pull up. I think they did say some shit about Bush though, back in the day, didn't they? Second Bush. 48:38 Speaker 2 Bush Yeah, I guess. I mean, I know Dixie Chicks did the same thing, but even like, Kid Rock, right? Like everybody knows there's no secret. I mean, I'm a huge Kid Rock fan. I've always been a huge Kid Rock fan. I'm tired, bro, of the politics. I'm tired of now, you know, every time I turn on the TV, it's Donald Trump and Kid Rock. 48:57 I'm like, dude, what are you doing? Just, I don't understand why these musicians think that their opinion matters. Does that make sense? 49:03 Speaker 4 Yeah, I mean, I guess they're leaning into the majority of their fan base, though, I would guess, you know, I mean, right. I mean, Kid Rock fan base is more, more or less Donald Trump fans. 49:12 Speaker 2 Well, now, I mean, you have no choice once, once you make that decision, it's over. I mean, dropkicks, I would not have thought Dropkick Murphy's fan base was predominantly liberal. But I mean, because I mean, I know all the people that are friends or fans of them that I've been going to the concerts for years and we're not. And all the people last night, I assure you, I saw a lot of American flag veteran tattoos with all the freaking dudes in the mosh pit. 49:35 They're not liberal. And it's like, but whatever, man. 49:35 They're not liberal. And it's like, but whatever, man. It was just, but it was interesting. It was a good trip. And then of course, you know, on the way back, we had to stop at Bucky's. If I ever tell you I'm going to go to Bucky's again, can you just punch me in the face? Like at what point do we as Americans stop putting ourselves through this? 49:52 When was the last time you went to Bucky's with me? 49:54 Speaker 4 Yeah, when I got my new shoes. Yeah, it's terrible. 49:56 The Future of Fast Food: Automation and Employee Debates Bro, the one we went to, not that bad. You could actually move around. I got in there, I couldn't even find my wife lost. We're texting. I said hey, I don't know where you're at. I found the kids over by the Slurpee machine. I don't know where you're at. And she's like, I got 1. You lost 2 within 10 minutes. 50:12 Like it's dangerous in there. Oh. 50:14 Speaker 4 Man, that's yeah. Oh, Bucky. So. All right, Well, I'm glad you had a good time. We're going to get into De la Dos Adam news. 50:23 Speaker 3 Got your Daily dos Adam 50:46 Speaker 4 50:46 Speaker 4 Full autonomous fast food restaurants are expected to be common by 20-30. So we got about four years, about 30% of fast food restaurants will be adopting high levels of automation. And then hopefully by 2036, somewhere around there, majority of fast food restaurants are going to be 100% autonomous. 51:07 Now you got some people, which is kind of ironic to me, you got some people that are complaining about this, mainly fast food workers. And the problem is you're being phased out because 1/2 the time you can't do your job. Second off, in order to keep prices low at these fast food places, you got to have a low entry wage. 51:25 And it's not meant for people, you know, past maybe 23, I would say, you know, maybe you're having some struggles or maybe you got to go back to McDonald's and work there as a manager for a little while. But I mean, it's, it's, it's a very low skilled job that I, I can't believe has not been replaced by majority robots already. 51:42 Because you just can't get good people to work in there because either A, they just got a bad attitude and they don't give a shit, or B, they're getting paid a low wage because it's not a very demanding job, you know what I'm saying? 51:56 Speaker 2 I told you that I work fast food and I put Hardee's out of business. OK? So if anybody ever says that workers are more important than robots, just remember, robots don't give away free food to their friends, right? Robots. Robots know how to count when it comes to give and change, OK? 52:14 They don't just guess. I just guessed, you know, like, oh, your pill was $10.48, You gave me a 20. Here's 1012 back, you know, like I didn't, like, I didn't know. I just, I just was like, this is stupid. Like I'm here, I'm 16 years old. I I care more about talking to the pretty girls and joking around my buddies and making crazy food than any of it. 52:35 So yeah, I think it it to me at least, it'll be safer because do you ever worry like especially when you go to like a fast food? Because this has me a lot, you know, I go, I hit a lot of fast food restaurants. You go through the drive through and you're like, and they're like, yeah, you're going to be using your app today and you're like, you're like, no. 52:53 Speaker 4 I should just drive off right now. 52:55 Speaker 2 And and then you're like, can I get #3 with, you know, medium fry and a regular sweet iced tea or whatever, And they go #3 is that the two cheeseburger meal? 53:10 No, Nope. I'm looking at the same thing you're looking at. It definitely appears to be, you know, a whopper or I'm sorry, like whatever it is, you know, chicken Nuggets, I don't know. And then you're like, OK, well, how do you not know your menu? And then the worst is when you get up there, you pay and they go, yeah, man, would you mind going ahead and pulling it up there to the yellow line and somebody will bring it out to you and you're like that used? 53:29 Speaker 4 To never happen until like the past 5-6 years ago. Like what the fuck are y'all doing in there? What what? What do you mean I got to pull up? This is supposed to be fast food and it's taking me fucking 15 minutes to get this shit. 53:38 Speaker 2 So This is why I think, because every time that happens to me, there's nobody in front of me and there's nobody behind me and I'm going, why do they want me to? Like why do they want me to not have any type of visual? Oh, why? 53:53 Speaker 4 Oh, because they can, they can get their order, order numbers up quicker. You know, if they tell you to move on, you're not in front of the camera or anything, you'd be like, oh, I already paid for that guy. So then when the managers come and check, they're like, oh wow, you got this guy in and out in 3 minutes. But they don't know. You pulled up past the camera and the sensor and everything and you're fucking sitting there for damn, you know, 8 minutes. 54:11 Speaker 2 I didn't even think about that dude. I was thinking more about putting their balls in my Big Mac. 54:15 Speaker 4 Oh, they could probably be doing that too, Yeah. 54:17 Speaker 2 That's what I'm afraid made-up because I know what we used to. I mean, we never did stuff like that. But Megan, Megan had a guy, he worked at Ryan's Steakhouse. He was pissing on the steaks. 54:28 Speaker 4 Pissing on that, How's she know she working there? 54:31 Speaker 2 I don't know. I don't know. She wasn't working there was her best friend. But I know we went there for like a field hockey tournament after dinner or whatever, or like end of season and the dude, the dude got arrested. 54:46 Speaker 4 Coming from the wildest sport ever, a field hockey tournament, to Ryan's where the guy pisses on the steaks in the back. What the fuck? 54:53 Speaker 2 Dude, like all of them. He was just like letting it rain on all of us. 54:55 Speaker 4 Was he a cook or like a busboy or something? 54:58 Speaker 2 He's a cook, yeah. 54:59 Speaker 4 He's asked my secret sauce, man, I guarantee there was somebody there that specifically came for a steak because it just, something about it just tasted different. 55:07 Speaker 2 Like, man, just good. I got to fix this. I got to fix this to get in trouble. 55:07 Speaker 2 Like, man, just good. I got to fix this. I got to fix this to get in trouble. I don't want to get, I don't want to get sued. It wasn't Ryan's. It was Hoss's Hoss's Steakhouse. 55:15 Speaker 4 I've never heard of Hoss's. 55:16 Speaker 2 Wow. 55:17 Speaker 4 Is it a one off they? 55:18 Speaker 2 Probably went out of business after the whole piss incident. 55:22 Speaker 4 Once that comes out, if you're a chain man, then you got then they think it's like a coordinated attack. You're like, are they pissing on everyone in every restaurant? They they got sleeper cells activated to start pissing on steaks. 55:32 Speaker 2 It scares me, man. That scares me, people. I mean, especially when you've got 16 year old kids, because we don't think like when you're 16, you don't think about the ramifications, you know what I mean? And like you're up there like all right, I'm going to put this Patty on my balls. That's funny, you know, and then you don't realize like, dude, it's it's a felony, you know, because they didn't tell you. 55:49 Like when I went, when I was working fast food, there was never a time they sat us down and was like, hey guys, it's a serious offense if you mess with the food. 55:57 Speaker 4 They never can't, Bill. There can't be nothing in the mail anymore. I saw you. I saw you. 56:01 Speaker 2 They never told us that. I remember I used to freaking wait, this isn't that bad. But like when you would like come up, you'd order food and you're like, hey, you know, I want this, this, this. And I knew it was going to be a minute. I'd be like, hey, man, just go grab a seat and I'll bring it out to you. You've heard them say that to you, right? 56:16 Well, they'd bring, they'd make the tray, the food would be done and I'd eat a couple fries off your, off your tray, you know, because snacky snack, you know, I'd grab a couple, I'd pop my mouth and then I'd walk out there and get it to you, you know, So, I mean, that's just how it goes. So I, I, I love this idea of having robots do it because they're not going to be doing that. 56:36 Speaker 4 Just Oh well, five are hot. Be careful. They're good though. Perfectly. 56:43 Speaker 2 Salty. 56:44 Speaker 4 That's how I like them. So, but no, yeah, I think it'd be a good idea because, you know, like I said, you've got the people that are, I don't, I don't know if maybe in California that did this where they raised the minimum wage for fast food workers to 15 or something crazy like that. It's, it's not a you know, First off, it's, I think it's going to be good for two reasons. 57:01 One, it's going to get these people, it's going to force them to find another job. I mean, more likely they'll just go on food stamps or something like that or EBT. But more than likely, hopefully they'll get pushed to like a Chick-fil-A or, or something. I think Chick-fil-A is probably going to keep their employees. They seem to do it right. I don't taste any ball sweat on my chicken normally. 57:17 And they all look like respectful people. You know, they're, they're wearing their uniforms. They're I mean, you go to McDonald's and you're like, do you even work here? Or you just, you just walked in and just went in the back. I mean, you look homeless as fuck. What are you doing? 57:28 Speaker 2 So I got a question for you, and I'm not. I'm not being funny. I'm not trying to be funny at all. I'm being serious. This is a serious question. Did you not make a joke about this? Do you promise? 57:36 Speaker 4 OK. 57:38 Speaker 2 So I was at this place called Chump Chumpy's or No Clumpy's Ice Cream in Chattanooga. It was actually really good. It was really good. Been around for like 50 years. So the guy that was making Carter's shake was he? 57:54 What's the word? How am I supposed to? 57:56 Speaker 4 Say it less brained. 57:58 Speaker 2 Yeah, so he was, he, he had something, he he was mentally disabled. OK. And I'm thinking about it because it gets to, he's checking me out too. Like he's working the cash register. Actually, no, no, like he was like, he was like giving my bill and he was going to take it. 58:16 And you know, there's a small part of me that was like, hopefully he messes this up. And this only cost me a dollar. I don't know, maybe but you did so but but, but he, but he did bring it up correctly and it was like $8.75 for the shake. And so I paid and then it asked for a tip. 58:31 Like do you want to give it a tip? Now? I'll be honest with you. It took this dude, and I'm not over exaggerating, at least 15 minutes to make this shake. Like it was like he was putting together a bomb. OK? I've never seen anybody take this long to make a shake. Me and Carter were over there and Carter's like, how long does this take? 58:48 I'm like, I don't know what's I don't know what's going on. He filled the cup with ice cream, walked over to the blender and then scooped out all the ice cream in the cup and put it in the blender. And I'm like, why didn't you just take the blender over there? You know what I mean? Like this is so weird. But anyway, I digress. 59:04 The reason I asked this question, do you think Chick-fil-A or this ice cream place pays special needs employees the same as like, I don't want to say whole brained, no, you know, you know what I mean? 59:23 Like do they pay them based on their skill level because every every other company does. 59:27 Speaker 4 I would think so, yeah. I think they're probably at the at the bottom down there, the lowest paid. They just want them to have something to do, you know, and it's, I think it's a win win for both because it's like, all right, it gives you something to do. You obviously don't need money. I mean, what are you going to buy? You know, you know, chicken tenders, like we'll give you free chicken tenders, but it's just one of those. 59:44 Speaker 2 59:44 Speaker 2 Things, they need money. They need money, Brandon. I don't think they act like they can't spend money. They can still spend money. 59:52 Speaker 4 Yeah. But I mean, it's not like they have a house payment or a car payment or anything like that. 59:57 Speaker 2 You don't know. 59:57 Speaker 4 That 95% probably don't, all right. They probably got government assistance also, and more than likely for the majority of them now, there might be someone that just got, you know, over the IQ level and he's getting screwed. He's at one point above whatever you have to be to be regular brain, full brain. I don't know what you call it. 1:00:14 Now that guy's going to be pissed. You know, he's probably going to go back to his IQ test and flunk it so he can get, you know, the benefits. But I mean, it depends on your skill level. I mean, it comes down to that. Obviously you can't have someone that doesn't know what's going on managing the bitch or it's going to turn into a McDonald's. 1:00:28 Speaker 2 OK, so, so, so bear with me. Imagine this. You said that they want to have all these fast food places be autonomous, correct? Yeah. Imagine if they're all autonomous, but all you do is hire special needs staff at everyone. 1:00:47 That's all you have is special needs staff, and you pay them half of what you'd pay a normal employee. Not that they're not normal, because they're normal, but how awesome would that be? I. 1:00:57 Speaker 4 Think that'd end up very bad to go home to the machine. They're going to be all twisted up in the machines and everything. They're going to step in the do not go areas and because you got to have someone to be able to fix the fucking machines and recalibrate them if something's going on. I mean, they're going to they're going to fuck it up and they're going to get hot oil all over them or you know, Jimmy over there is going to get his legs snapped off by a burger flipper only going to get their throat sliced by a damn spatula getting flung around. 1:01:19 It doesn't seem like a good idea. I think they're just going to hire like one person to put in normal or well abled all. 1:01:25 Speaker 2 Right. So one well abled person and like 10 like like, you know, I would go to that restaurant like that'd be so much fun. 1:01:32 Speaker 4 I, I, I think that's the last job they need to be in is the food industry. You know it's not a not. 1:01:38 Speaker 2 A. What should they be in Brandon? What? What is OK for you to have them in? 1:01:42 Speaker 4 I don't know, like painting painting. 1:01:47 Speaker 2 Why did you say painting? That's like the worst. Not what if I had to think of 100 jobs that I'd want a special needs person to be doing? Painting would not even be in the top 1000. 1:02:03 OK, well, you're not going. 1:02:04 Speaker 4 To have them cut in or anything, just have them paint a fucking blank wall. Just like I don't touch the ceiling, don't touch the floor. I mean, if you can't get past those two options, I don't want you making a burger, you know what I'm saying? Because I'm thinking. 1:02:15 Speaker 2 I'm thinking like janitorial staff would be good. 1:02:18 Speaker 4 Yeah, yeah, we had a couple of those at our school. I know at our school they all the special needs, they made all the chocolate chip cookies and they were good. I don't know, I don't want to know what they're putting in there, but they're the best chocolate chip. They're so, so moist. You know, I'm might have been because. 1:02:31 Speaker 2 They took them out early every time. 1:02:34 Speaker 4 Yeah, they couldn't wait or they're drooling on them or something. They were good. I ate them, you know, I did not discriminate. I bought them every day. You know, you get 2 for a dollar. They were good. I don't know where that money went. I don't know if it went back to them or the teachers were keeping it or what, but they were getting some money out of it for show. 1:02:50 But I think it's a good idea. I mean, it'd be great, you know, just go there orders correct the exact same every time. It's not fucked, you know. And then these other people, I mean, they're getting, they're going to find regular jobs, I guess, you know, a little more higher skilled, so. 1:03:04 Speaker 2 Those are regular jobs. 1:03:06 Speaker 4 Well, the, you know what I mean, like higher skilled jobs where they pay more, you know what I'm saying? I mean, you're not, you're not expected to work at a McDonald's and buy, you know, a house and a car, You know what I'm saying? Just it's just not feasible unless maybe maybe we're the manager. I don't know how much a McDonald's manager gets paid. Maybe like 80 grand, probably right? 1:03:21 Speaker 2 Yeah. 1:03:22 Speaker 4 But then you got to deal with all the idiots, you know what I'm saying? So if you just got to deal with robots, I think you're going to be good. You know, they'll pay you probably 80 grand also, but they're saving so much money. But your only job is to clean the machines, make sure they're fucking running. That's all you got to do. You can sit in the back and Jack off all you want, but you. 1:03:36 Speaker 2 Know. 1:03:37 Speaker 4 Make sure the machines are operational. 1:03:39 Speaker 2 I promise you as soon as this kicks off, the first time I go to do a drive through, they're going to be like, thank you, Sir. Please pull forward to the yellow line and wait for your meal to be delivered. And I'll be like, God Bless America, like are you serious? That's what they're going to do because it the machines are good until they're not. 1:03:57 But. 1:03:58 Speaker 4 You're still going to have a person there, you know what I'm saying?
