Speaker 2:

We're number one. Nothing to it, let's do it. Come on, I'm ready. I'm ready, I want to do it. I wear them. I got one out right now. Give me a geek Madhouse Bar Talks, baby. This is a bunch of shit, if you ask me. It makes no sense Morning.

Speaker 1:

Morning.

Speaker 2:

I hope we're coming through okay. I did some adjusting to the, to the microphone, because it keeps coming out too low and like youtube, and so it comes out okay when we do the audio recording of it, because that gets digitally mastered or whatever. So I'm trying to get it where it records in actually loud and plenty where what people can hear us, mostly because you don't talk loud enough. No, I answered me. So how'd your week go? Just work? Just work, that's.

Speaker 1:

Pretty much.

Speaker 2:

None of this rain got to you. Slowed you down, Mm-mm.

Speaker 3:

Man rain.

Speaker 1:

it's been raining they sent us home a couple times early, but that's concrete business.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

That rain. They came in and that hurricane was a pretty big hurricane coming in. They got towns shut down now bridges out, dams breaking, like that's crazy. Deep end too, like North Carolina.

Speaker 1:

Lookit, I pulled my. You know, on weekends I try to do a couple lawns. I pulled it out, threw everything together. It was like, ah, it ain't supposed to rain until 5. Man, I didn't make it around. I started pulling it off the trailer to go cut.

Speaker 2:

It started pouring up, yeah, I was like damn, I know. It started pouring at the house and me and amanda were there and I was like you know, just gotta go good grass. I was like, yeah, that ain't happening.

Speaker 1:

It got me. I just did it. Anyways, I was like I'm already wet. Did it start up for you? Okay, oh, yeah, well, that's all that matters.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I just did two of them and I went home so yesterday was a big like uh d Dylan for his football. It was a big deal because they were playing the two teams. They were the two undefeated teams, but Dylan's team had given up one touchdown and the other team hadn't given up any, but we've scored a lot more points. So it was like, you know, this was going to be a good game. You know and that's why my voice is so raspy, just like just yelling, getting excited they killed it though they were, they scored three touchdowns on them.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh yeah, they won three, they got three and then one one of them. They did get a touchdown one of them, but again that those refs weren't calling the holdings, which was ticking me off. I mean really ticking me off, but Coach.

Speaker 1:

It sounded like a song Tick, tick, tick me off.

Speaker 2:

Amanda said. The coach yelled at me. I didn't even notice. I was so irate. I mean it was just pissing me off. Like literally the only time they were getting away with anything was holding calls. What did Coach say to you, I don't know. Amanda said he said something like no, jim, no, or something like that. I didn't even hear him, I was so irate in my own zone.

Speaker 1:

Coach is kind of a big dick.

Speaker 2:

I mean it's exciting, man, that's exciting stuff when you're watching them play like that and they're playing so good. You know what I mean. It's exciting, man, that's exciting stuff when you're watching them play like that and they're playing so good. You know what I mean. And that's the game like probably the championship of this year will probably be Ridgeville and Midview probably would be my guess. So it was pretty exciting. It was pretty wild.

Speaker 2:

Not as fun as that flag game two years ago in the mud, but it was up there. It was a pretty good game. We didn't win the one in the mud, but it was still a really good game. That was winning a double overtime and everything. Yeah, that hurricane, though, was leaving. That's the remnants that were coming when you were talking about going to cut grass. Same thing during when he was playing football. It was drizzling a little bit on us and stuff like that. It didn't get bad. They were talking about we were going to have these big windstorms and stuff. We didn't get anything like that here, Not in this area, but man, some of that stuff.

Speaker 1:

I looked at some of that damage.

Speaker 2:

I said, damn that stuff. I looked at some of that damage that's a damn. Yeah, that like ashbury or whatever, that that town's like basically isolated. Every bridge going into town has been wiped out and they're just like isolated. Now it's wild. And then, uh, what was that one in north carolina? I forget, keep forgetting what the name of that one? The dam broke. That's wild, that's, it's scary. That's one thing good about ohio like we, we tornadoes is our big fear.

Speaker 2:

Really, we don't have to worry about hurricanes and earthquakes too much. I mean, either there has been a couple earthquakes, always in lake county too, is there like a fault line down there or something I don't know? Seems Seems like always, always, always, always Morning. Who's that? Johnny Newman, yep, so I guess we'll get into the. Well, you know what I wanted to talk to you about. Have you heard of this Rogel the trucker in Denver? You haven't heard about this guy? His brakes went out. The truck driver His brakes went out and he plows into these cars. The cars blow up, kills four people. They sentenced him to 110 years. There's got to be more to it. They the only thing that they're arguing. Their only argument was that there was a uh, uh, what? What do you call those things? Those ramps? You know how, when you're going downhill, they have that like ramp up the hill.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that there was one right before that that he could have tried out. But it's like what if he didn't check his brakes? And I mean, is that 110 years?

Speaker 1:

man, I don't know. They're like I said, there's got to be more to it.

Speaker 2:

They probably found something in the system or something no it's not what it says no, I don't know, I don't see, that's just an accident, what the hell there's a bunch of people protesting it, but I mean that's, they sentenced him 110 years, but there's a bunch of and the judge is going. There's nothing I could do about it. That's what the precedence is set. That's what it is. It's like I don't think you could get me to drive a truck now ever, if that's the possibility that, like, the brakes fail and I got to go to a prison for 110 years that to me there's.

Speaker 1:

There's got to be more to it.

Speaker 2:

I don't think. So Google it and look at it and see what I'm talking about. It's justice for Rogelle. It's spelled like it looks like R-O-G-E-L is what the whole thing is. No, it's literally. The brakes failed in his truck and he just took them out.

Speaker 1:

I don't know man, I might have Literally the brakes failed in his truck and he just took them out. I don't know man, I might have to see if you got any more cook positions open.

Speaker 2:

I mean right, I mean 110 years. There's not much worth 110 years. No, I don't know, that don't seem right. For a guy that's just working, it don't seem right. And I don't know if it was his equipment, though, either that I don't know if it was his equipment, though, either that I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Either way, accidents are accidents.

Speaker 2:

Well, but it'd be worse, I think, if you get 110 years and you're driving somebody. It's like when you were working for a terminal and you quit because they wouldn't fix the brakes, remember? I mean, could you imagine you go to prison and it was? They wouldn't fix the brakes.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but that would have been my choice to drive it. You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 2:

I get it. But some people don't have that choice Rents. Do you know what I'm saying? You're lucky, your house is paid for, you don't overextend yourself. But a lot of guys are out there. They got a family and they're living paycheck to paycheck and they don't have a choice. They're just going to drive that truck.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

I just did it just to do it. But I don't have a choice. They're just going to drive that truck. Yeah, I just did it just to do it. But I don't know, If I thought about it now I'd be like, no, I ain't driving it. You did then I know, but no, a week I drove it like that, oh you did drive it for a week.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I didn't know that. I thought as soon as you noticed it, well, I guess I knew it was a couple of days, and then you're just like no, this is too much, it's too bad, right? Yeah, I seen that, and that's the first thing I thought about was, for some reason, like the over the road truckers look like foreigners and he's a foreigner, I don't, so I'm assuming. I assume it's his truck, I would imagine for some reason. I think that I don't. I didn't delve into it enough to say one way or the other.

Speaker 2:

But that's kind of crazy, dude. One hundred and ten years and you just drive. I mean, that's just scary to me. Man, screw that. That's what I'm saying. There's got to be more than that. I nothing that I saw. Everything last night that I saw is basically it was negligence to to go up that ramp is the only thing they're saying. Like, that ramp was there for you, you could have used that. But I mean, what if he didn't hit the brakes before then? You know, like, like, I don't know how far the ramp was. I don't know any of that.

Speaker 3:

You know what I mean.

Speaker 2:

Like is that if you're an over-the-road trucker and you see one of those, are you supposed to test your brakes real quick before you pass it?

Speaker 1:

I don't know, I don't do over-the-road.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but you took the classes, right, I don't remember that shit. That shit was over 20 years ago, oh jesus, that's you know what. That's the worst thing. So now you got truck drivers that don't remember that shit. And then, and then now, okay, as I brought this up yesterday because I know of people that that, uh, um, I know people that go to college right now and they use that chat, gpt or AI stuff to do all their homework.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's like.

Speaker 2:

Dude in 10 years from now. Your doctor. That's how he got through school. Your doctor used chat GPT to go through school. You better pray that you picked a doctor, that you know what I mean. You better pray that your doctor was somebody who gave a shit and actually paid attention in class and didn't chat GPT it. Because if I'm going to college I'm chat GPT-ing and I know I am. I'm that person 100 and I know I am. I'm that person 100%. I know I am, especially if you're away at college, like there's a party going on.

Speaker 2:

You've got to do a whole report, or you can just upload it into this freaking thing and get all the answers and be done and partying.

Speaker 1:

That's going to be like maybe right now you could probably get away with it, don't you think you're going to put some uh things where it's going to block that, you know, I mean I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I don't know. I mean I guess somewhere along the way they better because we can't have doctors that went that took. Yeah, I mean seriously we can't. We can't have doctors that did reports with chat gbt, we can't do this right.

Speaker 1:

That's what I'm. I'm saying It'll be monitored or something.

Speaker 2:

I don't know how you monitor it, though I don't know. Jimmy Asif said he thinks it's a lack of maintenance, maybe because he didn't do his maintenance, but still 110 years, dude, 110 years is the part that sticks me. I guess, if you want to say maintenance and you want to say five years or something, it's still a lot and in my opinion, for going to work one day and making a mistake, I mean. But 110 years, I mean a doctor will kill somebody on a, on a on a table, and he gets sued, his insurance goes back to work the next day and goes back to work the next day.

Speaker 2:

And goes back to work the next day. And this truck driver, I'm sure, had insurance. You know what I'm saying. And sure he got sued. I'm not saying he didn't deserve that. But why did he have to go to jail at all, let alone 110 years?

Speaker 1:

That's why I say there's more to it, there's got to be.

Speaker 2:

They're saying that, say there's more to it. They're saying that that's all they're saying is he should have used that ramp dude, I'm telling you, that's what it says I'm well, maybe it's in denver, it's in denver.

Speaker 1:

Well, maybe he said that he he lost his brakes before that ramp I, I guess I still don't.

Speaker 2:

I mean, that's just like you're.

Speaker 1:

You're in a panic mode. You're trying to control this fucking machine going down the road and and you ain't looking like where's the next off ramp you know what I mean yeah, so I don't know.

Speaker 2:

Somebody caught it like somebody was live streaming in their car in the lane right here and it happened right here next to him. So he's live streaming in his car, for whatever reason, I don't know, just just live streaming. However, for whatever reason, he was doing it and and he comes barrel, dude, he's flying, he's probably doing every bit of 50, probably coming into a red light. Basically, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, it is scary to be a driver at that point, but that's just to me.

Speaker 2:

I don't understand how we hold, because how long were you in truck driving school? I think six weeks, six weeks. So you went to school for a whole six weeks, yeah, like the whole time, like full time, 40 hours all right.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was like that like 40 hours for six weeks. Yeah, a doctor goes for like eight to ten years and doesn't have to go to jail when he fucks up. I mean I mean that's just like how does that make sense? Please make that make sense to me. I mean, yeah, make that make sense. I mean he's if he accidentally kills somebody, gets sued and he still has his job. I guess he can lose his license. He doesn't go to jail or prison.

Speaker 1:

That's why I keep saying it had to be Morton than that.

Speaker 2:

I thought the same thing, but I can't find it.

Speaker 1:

Might have not have took his little rest period, the eight hours.

Speaker 2:

He might have not have, but either way, that's still. The doctors are the same thing. They're malpractice. That's what you're talking about is basically malpractice of driving a truck that you went to school for six weeks for, Compared to a doctor to eight to ten years, and all he can get is sued. He's not in prison and this guy is that doesn't make sense to me, right?

Speaker 1:

But I'm just trying to figure out why they would give him that much.

Speaker 2:

I don't understand. I mean there's, it don't matter what it is. Even if you had, I mean the only thing I would say is a dui, but I still wouldn't see that would be 110 years for a dui. I mean it. But if it was a dui, yeah, maybe that would be, or any kind of drugs of any sort, I guess.

Speaker 1:

But some stuff needs to be changed on them. I was on the truck drivers like how is it you can't? You're supposed to do your pre-trip inspection, but there's stuff that we ain't mechanics, you know. I'm saying like how are we supposed to know some of that stuff? You know you're supposed to check lugs and make sure all that's tight and I get that.

Speaker 2:

But yeah, there's and there's certain things that they like, because I know with us like when we like when we run, like scissor lifts and stuff like that, we all have lift cards that they went through and told us that we're supposed to check this, check that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but if something else goes out on it that's not in the card or you're not, you know, experienced, you ain't a mechanic.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, how would you know if the brake lines are strong? Or I mean, how would you know that you would have to like pressure test something right? Those are opposite Brakes work opposite. On a truck, the air pressure holds them open. Really, yeah. So then what? How is it not work?

Speaker 1:

Then it should just close up. Then if there's no air pressure, yeah. But if it's hot and it's, they're just not, they're just going by it. You know what I'm saying? Like the brakes are just, they're on, but it's already hot and it's just going. It's not locking it or you're going too fast, you got them too heated up, huh. But the air, when you build up the air pressure, it opens up the brakes. So when you hit the brakes, it releases air pressure and it makes them go in. That's how the brakes work. On a semi it's different brakes work on a semi.

Speaker 1:

It's different, huh well, all I know is I don't find like I don't find it to be fair. It does not seem like I don't think he's gonna do that on his appeal I probably win.

Speaker 2:

Like I said there, there's a bunch of people, there's, like I think they said, three or four million signatures on it. Yeah, trying to, you know, like a petition basically for it. But yeah, I, that's crazy to me. I, I just I was like who the hell would be a truck driver? That doesn't make any sense to me.

Speaker 1:

No way in hell would I do that that's like a guy we, we was driving with years ago. He uh, he was in a concrete truck and he went to an off ramp. His brakes went out, he went straight through, hit a pole, hit a car, all kinds of shit. Did anybody die? No, but he got. I don't even think he got in trouble, he was driving a couple months later.

Speaker 2:

He got some shit, but you know what I mean.

Speaker 2:

Well, I mean, obviously denver or colorado's state laws are different than ohio state laws too, but I mean that just, it just seems he killed somebody, you know well, yeah, but even if you killed somebody, still, I mean, if you get in a car accident and it kills somebody, I still don't, I still don't understand it. I still don't understand, unless you're, you know, unless you're under the influence, or something like that, or I mean it just doesn't make sense to me. I don't understand where, where it would be, you know, I don't understand how that could be the thing, but I mean I know it's. I mean I get it for the four people that died. Yeah, you feel bad that they died, and but I just don't understand how a doctor's malpractice doesn't land him in prison, but it does.

Speaker 2:

For, you know, for a, for a truck driver, I mean, unless he was purposely trying to do it, like if he was driving his truck through a crowd. You know what I mean. Using it as a weapon, now okay, then all right, then 110 years. But because it didn't stop at a red light, now okay. Now, I don't feel like that's. You know, just the same thing. Pretty wild to me, though. It just made me want, because the first thing I thought about was you, when you wouldn't drive the truck for terminal. I remember you're like, nope, not doing it. They fixed it and I ain't doing it, no more.

Speaker 1:

And then when I went back he said what's the reason why you left last time, missing days? So hell no, I said because you wouldn't fix them, damn brakes.

Speaker 2:

Oh, he tried to put it on like he got rid of you or something.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he goes. What was the reason why we let you go? Last time I said you let me go, I quit. He wouldn't fix them brakes.

Speaker 2:

Then he's like, oh, oh no. I remember a couple days of you telling me I can't keep driving this truck. I remember you telling me and then all of a sudden you're just like, yeah, he ain't fixing it and I ain't staying. Fuck that, yeah. And I mean I guess I can't blame you, but, like I said, some people don't have that option. I mean, your mortgage is due.

Speaker 1:

Your car payment's due. You might. There's another opportunity for you. There could be, but people don't see it that way I know people are. They're scared to take chances.

Speaker 2:

I ain't scared to take a chance, I don't care yeah, but they, you know, I mean that people keep their jobs. A lot of people are like that They'll just keep their job.

Speaker 1:

Maybe that's my problem.

Speaker 2:

That's what I always appreciated about being a carpenter. Like I can always go to work somewhere, you know what I mean. Whereas, like Ford workers or whatever, like their job was always like, just to there, that's it, they're done. You know what? To there, that's it, they're done. You know what I mean. That's it Like if that job they got to go look for another job and they're just not a bunch of jobs paying that same amount of money, right, as a carpenter, you could go and make the same thing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and doing a different job. But you know what I mean.

Speaker 2:

It's flexible, you can do different stuff you can, but most of my career has been mostly just the metal studs, drop ceilings, that's it. I mean, that's what I'm doing right now at Cleveland.

Speaker 1:

Catholic metal stuff. If you had to, you could adapt to finish carpentry. You know what I'm saying. You wouldn't want to.

Speaker 2:

I've done it, I've done it here and there, but it's not my right that's what I'm saying you can, I can, but I'm worth the most money on drop ceilings and metal studs, for sure, no question, and I mean that's yeah.

Speaker 1:

But what I'm saying is you could go into roughing and you could do other stuff. You know, I'm saying you could go into wood framing if you had to.

Speaker 2:

It's no, yeah, I can, but it's just not. It just doesn't. I never did that stuff because it's not what I came up on. Right to other guys, they get into metal studs and it doesn't make sense to them, like wood does to them or whatever. But and then there's some people that want to use metal where they shouldn't even be using metal right, you know what I mean, because they don't understand that yeah, no, I'm just kidding. That happens quite a bit. People like that are like from the metal stud.

Speaker 1:

They try to use it and they don't everybody went over there helped uh randy at his. He put that shit up. That shit was funny I wasn't there for that.

Speaker 2:

Oh, my god, the one in his backyard. I remember it being done, but I wasn't there for that.

Speaker 1:

No, kept taking like scrap metals, where it was long enough to make you know for what he needed and we, that's what it was made out of steel framing. Oh, was it all metal?

Speaker 2:

that shit was funny he still got that shot. I bet he does yeah that was a nice shed.

Speaker 1:

We put an extension on this side. Extension on the side of the middle. We put an extension on this side. Extension on this side, the middle. It looked like a barn. And he had every like journeyman carpenters over there doing this shit, just drinking beers and just kicking it. Yeah, it was funny.

Speaker 2:

That's funny. That's him. He likes to party and hang out.

Speaker 3:

That's his one of his what do you call it?

Speaker 2:

One of his gifts in life is hanging out and partying. Oh, he's a people person. Oh, yeah, for sure, always has been. So I was watching an interview with your boy, my boy, your boy, yeah, yeah, the Trump's buddy over there, trump's buddy that he's bringing in Bobby Kennedy Jr and I was watching it and I was wanting to show it to you. I don't know if it'll come across here. I wanted you to hear it and I actually was waiting for now because I wanted you to hear it. It takes a little while because he gets pretty, he dives pretty good into it, but I wanted to see what you thought of it, because it's everything you've been saying. You know what I mean.

Speaker 1:

I say a lot. What are you talking about?

Speaker 3:

Innocently put into their bodies these days and, most importantly, into the bodies of their children. And it's no coincidence that Americans die earlier than Canadians or Germans or Italians or Japanese or Koreans or Australians or most any other comparable country. And it wasn't always that way. Until the early 1990s, our life expectancy was the same or better than other developed countries. Then, suddenly, more and more Americans began suffering from chronic diseases from obesity, cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, alzheimer's, heart disease and all kinds of autoimmune diseases. Our maternal mortality rate soared to the highest of any developed country on earth, same with infant mortality. Like the frog in the slowly boiling water, we didn't really notice as we got sicker and sicker. We've grown now to accept chronic disease conditions as normal. But now, in 2024, we're finally waking up to this cataclysm and we're asking ourselves how in the world did this happen?

Speaker 3:

A big part of it is our diet. Restaurants that serve contaminated food are fined or shut down, but when it's the government that approves the poisons in our food, a few people get very, very rich and the toxins end up in every supermarket aisle. Let me show you what I mean Doritos, cheez-its, cap'n Crunch, gummy Bears Everyone knows that these are junk foods, so maybe you wouldn't be too surprised to see that the ingredients include a lot of poisons, including a harmful yellow dye called Tatrazine or Yellow Dye no 5. What you may not know is that this dye was originally made out of the sludge that's left over when you turn coal into coke, for blasphemy seriously right yeah, well, they said that red dye was made out of.

Speaker 1:

It still might be made out of. Uh, bugs crushed up bugs.

Speaker 3:

Listen keep going he keeps going it's called coal tar, and I've actually sued many big industries for legacy contamination of coal tar all around the country because it's so toxic and so harmful to the environment and human beings. A century ago it was just an obnoxious industrial byproduct that everybody was trying to figure out ways to get rid of. One of the ways that they did that was by paving roads. But then a British chemist figured out that the coal tar could be used to derive fabric dye. And if fabric dye, why not food? Food manufacturers began using it to cover up the discoloration of low-quality foods that they wanted to pass off on unsuspecting customers.

Speaker 3:

They didn't know back then that this yellow dye, tartrazine, causes tumors, asthma, developmental delays, neurological damage, add, adhd, hormone disruption, gene damage, anxiety, depression, intestinal injuries. Well, we know it now. We've known this for decades. That's why tartrazine is heavily restricted in other countries. In some countries, foods with tartrazine have a warning label that it may cause ADHD in children. Today it's made from petroleum, not coal tar. Either way, it's crazy to add this to your kid's favorite foods. It doesn't even change the flavor. This yellow dye isn't just a junk food. It's in the foods that we consider healthy. It's in everyday kid snacks like popcorn, mac and cheese, fruit snacks. It's in sports drinks like Gatorade and so-called vitamin water. It's even added to chicken broth, to corn, to pickles, to mustard and to yogurt, and so, of course, our kids get sick and we lovingly feed them chewable.

Speaker 2:

This, right here, is the most saying Like. Like what he says right now is what really blows your mind right here, like the thought process behind it.

Speaker 3:

Well, vitamins, which have surprise tartrazine. And so the cycle continues until the coughs and asthma kick in, at which point you go to pick up some cough syrup and yeah, you guessed it tartrazine. I've been picking on tartrazine today, but that's just one of at least 100 chemical poisons that our health agencies allow into our children's food. I can make a video just like this to talk about Red 40, bha, bhd, potassium bromide, chemical after chemical, and on and on and on. If just one of them can cause all of these problems, imagine what they're doing in combination. That has never been studied. If we took all of these chemicals out, our nation would get healthier immediately. We'd have few.

Speaker 2:

And the thing that's crazy is they were saying that like literally, if you buy Froot Loops in Canada, it's one color. Well, or at least they don't have the bright, beautiful coloring that we have here. But yeah, I think they might even be one color you might be right about that and like gummy bears, because that's like every parent out there is giving their kids gummy bears.

Speaker 1:

They're like why are the colors so bright? Why are you even selling them like that? Because the kids want them, because they want this one instead. Yeah, and they're killing them. Dude, that's freaking crazy. Yeah, you always thought your cold cereals in the morning were healthy for you. They're not.

Speaker 2:

You didn't know it was being, you didn't know they were putting it out of petroleum byproducts, like come on, how does that even make sense?

Speaker 1:

Well, they said what was the on uh? Fluoride was supposed to be a byproduct for something and they didn't know what to do with it. So they they made it sound like it was good for your teeth.

Speaker 2:

It's not oh yeah, I keep seeing that everywhere too, that fluoride is one of the worst things. Now I guess they're saying and remember in school when we were kids, they made us put the fluoride yeah, every day that was every morning in homeroom or whatever we'd have to do it.

Speaker 1:

Fluoride is like a byproduct I can't remember what it was and they was like what are we gonna do with all this shit? They was like I put it in toothpaste and stuff like that. That's insane, and there's no, but what's crazy is.

Speaker 2:

It's only america doing it. Oh yeah, that's what's crazy. Canada is right across the border and they're not doing that, they're making it illegal. I mean, and your chicken broth?

Speaker 1:

your gummy bears, I mean those gummy bears.

Speaker 2:

I mean that to a parent today, you know. I mean it's perfect. You get to give vitamins to your kids. You're doing a good thing for them, and here you're giving them poison. I mean what in the hell? It's just. Oh man, that's crazy to me, that blows my mind, and that's like all these uh parents.

Speaker 1:

You know, both of them work and stuff, so you try to find fast foods that are healthy to feed your kids. You know, so you're buying them trash every kid.

Speaker 2:

It's hard to get them to eat like healthy. It just is. And parents, I mean that's what they want to do. They want to make sure their kids eat healthy. But I mean, I didn't eat healthy as a kid and I was. I was as physically as a kid. You're physically fit, period. You're growing, you're running, you're. You know what I mean. It doesn't matter as much when you're a kid and a parent spend all this time worrying about it. Meanwhile you're putting poison in your kid, thinking you're trying to help out, make things better. You'd be better off to just let them go. That's wild to me. I I didn't realize that it was so extreme. I know you brought it up and I knew I remember like. I remember like because didn't he like for a long time you couldn't have a red m&m or something. Then all of a sudden, they just had them again yeah, remember that.

Speaker 1:

yeah, yeah, it was a dye they had in it and they changed the dye, so then they came back to it and then, instead of being cancerous, they just used bug juice or something.

Speaker 2:

But then I was listening to Joe Rogan was saying that he asked he just goes, he had them Google it just to find out how many things it was, because they were curious how many things it was. Because they were curious and he thought it was like one-fourth of everything that that, uh, the fda approves gets unapproved within like five years or something like that. And he said google it, google it, and you know his guy in the back like we need, we need one of those guys. Yeah, that googles it, he googles it and it's one third. It's not one quarter, it's one third of it within five years of everything they approved. They just approve it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, a third of it ends up being bad and has to come off the shelf Like that's crazy. What are they doing over there? I mean, what are they doing over there? That's absolutely insane, I mean, and how do you know what to eat?

Speaker 1:

you don't because the government uh regulators for that they're allowing it.

Speaker 2:

But he said they put it in your corn. How is that possible? Like in the canned corn? Is that what he's talking about? Like cans of corn? It seems like they're going out of their way to put nasty shit in your food. Cause corn on a cop, dude. I wouldn't doubt it, I wouldn't doubt it. I've been reading that chaos book, dude, and I'm telling you, I wouldn't doubt it, I would not doubt it at all.

Speaker 1:

You're a conspiracy theorist.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. You wonder where you like a conspiracy theorist, or when you're just like waking up, and it's common sense I mean, you're looking at stuff like that.

Speaker 2:

That whole thing that went on with that chaos there was. I'll tell you, that's one thing that they said too. He's the one of the studies within chaos that the cia had done one of the studies with with. They said with lab rats. They said Right, but one of the things they did is when they, when they confined them to a tight space and put amphetamines in them, they became murderers. They were murdering each other, and isn't that nothing but the ghettos in the 90s with the crack epidemic? Isn't that exactly what it is and exactly what happened?

Speaker 2:

I guess, I mean it is right, isn't it the same exact thing? Amphetamines and I mean they're calling amphetamines like speed and stuff but isn't that the same effect of crack or coke or whatever? Because when we were little, like you always heard, coke was a rich man's drug and then crack came around. You know, I mean, and that's how they were, the poor people were using coke, right?

Speaker 1:

well, originally I think it was called freebasing right yeah, richard prior did that way back right. Wasn't that how he like? Burned himself up like one of the first crackheads. That's what it is. Yeah, I yeah, I guess. Yeah, no, it is, I, yeah, I don't know, but I mean, but when?

Speaker 2:

we were it is Free basil. Yeah, yeah, I guess, yeah, no, it is, yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

But I mean, but when we were kids, though that was the thought process, was that Coke was a rich man's drug. That's what you always were. Now it's not. Now it's like everybody seems to be doing it. I mean, I don't think people care about money so much anymore, though I think people would just waste money. I don't think anybody puts money away like they should, cause these, these, these like these, like bartenders and and uh, servers at restaurants and stuff like that. They're all doing Coke and stuff like that and that that I don't think. Like in the like eighties, I don't think that was a thing.

Speaker 1:

I don't think you could afford to do it back then, although you were only getting 10 tip, not 20 now like you do now, and the percentage of the 20 is huge yeah, well, yeah, the bills are higher, but still, I mean it was 10, 20.

Speaker 2:

I mean the percentage still should have never changed. It's all I'm saying. At what point is it not going to be 50? You're giving to to the servers Sometimes I do. Well, I'm not saying that, but I mean, at what point will that not be this?

Speaker 1:

common the standard, yeah, the standard, yeah. That's why I like when the old people come in here and leave a buck. Yeah, old people.

Speaker 2:

Well, I mean because I know when I grew up it was like you were supposed to leave 10% tip. That was the thing was a 10 tip and then now all of a sudden it's 25, 20, yeah, like 25 is considered a good tip. Now right, 20 isn't just a tip average, that's just what it is. In fact, the computer, if you have a group and the tip is built in, the computer, figures it at 18. That's automatic 18. I think 15 is like the low end.

Speaker 1:

Now that's like what used to be the good tip, you know was 15 so I think it just says that we're cheap no, no, no, it's, it's.

Speaker 2:

It's so that they can afford coke. We have to tip them more so that they could do coke they don't still pay their bills right and do some coke right.

Speaker 1:

You gotta give. Yeah, it's coke. Money is what it is, it's drug money oh shit, we're, we're uh contributors.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you don't even realize it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, everybody, stop giving the big tips.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you're ruining these, these people yeah, all you're doing is giving them coke money nah that's just joking.

Speaker 1:

These girls ain't all that good.

Speaker 2:

No, no, I'm just kidding, but I mean it's true, though it was a time when Coke wasn't for people that didn't have tons of money.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and people wasn't. It was like in a social event. They would powder their nose, is that true? I don't know. Yeah, remember when they used to say I'm going to go powder my nose. It was either to take a dump or do a line.

Speaker 2:

I think that's what they do now, don't they?

Speaker 1:

When I see them going to the bathroom too much. Oh yeah, you know that. You know which ones are doing.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, when you see them go to the bathroom too much, you assume that's what. Yeah, you're like what the fuck Crying in their mouths.

Speaker 1:

Charles looking like the hinge broke.

Speaker 2:

But, I mean I don't know, I just yeah. But honestly, though, I mean, when you look at the crack epidemic in a crowded ghetto, that is exactly what the rat study said. It's exactly what it said would happen with the rats when they did it, and then they just it's humans and you put them all in apartments.

Speaker 1:

Did you ever look up that one I was telling you about, about the German? Was it German or Russian?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was, it was the sleep. It's fake. It's not fake. Yeah, it is, it's deep fake. It says not fake, yeah, it is, it's deep fake. It says, yeah, everything I see now everything that came out, said it was all fake. Yeah, there was a bunch. In fact, the article you sent me, the link you sent me, if you read all the way down, it tells you at the end that it's fake. Yeah, every inch of it was fake. Yeah, somebody made it up.

Speaker 1:

I think somebody put it was fake after For real it could be.

Speaker 2:

Well, that's what Cat Williams said, isn't he? He said that that's your whole job is to pretend it didn't happen. Yeah, or whatever he said.

Speaker 1:

You know what? I still think a lot of them, people that are coming out now, I think they should be charged. What?

Speaker 2:

do you?

Speaker 1:

mean On like Diddy shit. They're like uh, did he shit? They're like yeah, I seen this and I seen that. I'm like that's pretty much like you're. You allowed all that shit too. You know what I'm saying. You're coming out now. Amanda brought up a good point last night.

Speaker 2:

She goes, she goes. How the hell did Kat Williams know all this shit was going to go down this year? You know, eight months ago he did his interview. He said they're all it's all coming to light that 2024. How did he know that? We started watching it? What started? Uh, listening to the interview again last night just to try and like kind of see exactly. Yeah, just a recap of it because, you know, just to to make sure Shannon Sharp could afford some new sneakers again, I guess.

Speaker 1:

But baby, what he didn't have? Baby oil. I don't think.

Speaker 2:

He got them sharp pills or whatever. The car spark spark, what the fuck spark, spark pills what the fuck.

Speaker 1:

But yeah, I just think, uh, them people that was they're like coming out now and saying, oh, I seen this or I seen that. Why didn't you go to authorities and report it back then? You know like you should be charged for that shit I mean something, if you, if you, yeah, I mean that's like if you've seen a crime and you know and you didn't report it, that's I don't know, but they wasn't. They was at the parties.

Speaker 2:

You know what I'm saying yeah, I don't know how that works, I really don't know.

Speaker 1:

I mean, you've witnessed some shit with minors and stuff and you didn't report it.

Speaker 2:

If you don't step in, I think, yeah, I think you do.

Speaker 1:

I think there is a law against that so now they think it's funny because they're talking about it and shit, I'm like you should be should be charged.

Speaker 2:

Because isn't that how Seinfeld ended, like the end of Seinfeld with the last episode? Isn't that what? They all went to jail? Because they were laughing at somebody who got robbed or something, instead of helping them. Oh Right, I think it was.

Speaker 1:

I think so, but what I'm saying is I think then people should be charged too Shit.

Speaker 2:

If they seen it, knew what was going on.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, well, maybe but do you know that they're unwilling?

Speaker 2:

it doesn't matter there were minors, if they were willing or not oh, if you know they're minors, yeah, yeah, are they saying they seen minors?

Speaker 1:

you seen that, where they actually said they seen mine wasn't justin beaver a minor when he was involved in that shit? I don't know he's went religious did you see that?

Speaker 2:

I bet he did. Have you seen it? It's all over. He's singing gospel music now.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's fine, but what I'm saying is when he was a young kid when he was a young kid he was at them parties and other people seen him at the parties and what they was doing with him drugging him, letting him drink and all that shit. So the people was there should be charged too, see I haven't heard that.

Speaker 2:

I didn't know that that actually came out. I knew that justin bieber was with them, he was going to kick it or whatever. I seen the video with that, but I didn't know. They said he was actually like there's people witnessing him doing notarious shit at the parties well then you got the, the other minors that were there, he wasn't the only minor no, usher was the first one, right. Right, I mean as far as, as far as we know, what was he? 13 or something. Yeah, he was young, he was real young.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's what I'm saying. All them people that was like, oh yeah, I seen him doing this and that, Like they're all coming out now out of the woodwork, they should be charged too.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, when you listen to that Lonely song, you feel like he was touched and he's ready to put a bullet in his head, right, I don't know. That song is strong man, that's a strong song, that, I think. Isn't that what it's called lonely? That one where he sings acapella I don't know, but he's. That boy could sing oh my god, that song is, it's, it's beautiful, but it's like it sounds like there's some demons in that boy. For that, for that song to come out, that's, that's some that was right when the shit started coming out yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

But how did Cat Williams know all this was coming out?

Speaker 1:

Probably everybody knew it was coming out Really.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so he was just telling it.

Speaker 1:

I think there was a lot of people saying that shit way before Cat Williams.

Speaker 2:

And you might be wrong. People might have already turned him in. You know, it's like wasn't that video that came out of him beating her? Wasn't that like, didn't he they get paid to like give up that tape or something like that? Yeah, they should be charged too. Yeah, we said that then when we heard that yeah I mean, people might have came out, but you know people probably got paid. When you got billions of dollars, it's easy to pay people off yeah, but for how long?

Speaker 1:

no, it's. Yeah, that's what the thing. Even if you got paid off, you should go to jail. What do you mean? If you're a person that's seen that stuff and you got paid off to shut up and you shut up and took the money, you should go to jail for that too.

Speaker 2:

That's fine, but not if you don't say nothing and they don't. You don't know who it is. If they never say no, yeah, you know, I mean, how would they know?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but I'm saying they're coming out now but if they, if you, if you start arresting them for coming out, everybody's gonna stop coming out. Yeah, like, if I say something I'm going to jail, I ain't doing that. You know what I mean? Yeah, am I crazy or no? Cuz that's how my mind works. I'd be like yeah, are you saying shit? Do you see what they did to him? Right? No, I mean right or no? Mm-mm, there's people that believe that Justin Bieber song is real.

Speaker 1:

No, that one, I thought was real man.

Speaker 2:

If that was, though it just came out too fast, right after all that shit I was like man.

Speaker 3:

I don't know.

Speaker 1:

But people are quick, man, I swear. The one that sticks out is that little sign on that dude with that fucking fly. That shit was funny. Oh, the pinson kamala debate yeah, that was, that was good, oh my god, what was that? A couple hours later, that shit came out yeah, something like that.

Speaker 2:

It wasn't even that, I think it was maybe like a half hour oh my god, that was one of my favorites. Bill McCoy says he wants to see the perp walk on the 6 o'clock news. Show me the handcuffs With everybody. Get them all arrested, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I can't wait, man. They need to end it. You know whatever happened to Epstein's shit. No list came out, no people got arrested.

Speaker 2:

No, nothing. There was a partial list, but it was like a lot of names were redacted for sure. Yeah, it's like what?

Speaker 1:

They just covered it all up, you know what? And half that diddy shit is never going to come out.

Speaker 2:

Never. I can't believe it was that bad. But I watched a Candace Owens she did, the one where she was talking about her big thing was she was on that interview, was she was talking about Kamala Grandmother's white or I don't know she's basically her grandmother was dead way before the grandma.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah yeah. But at the end of that interview or at the end of that podcast, when she was on she, she had some P Diddy stuff on there. When she was on she, she had some P Diddy stuff on there and there was like there was an interview with the one guy and they're like said something about you know, p P Diddy sees that new, fresh, but he's got to have it. Or ask whatever he said, I don't remember. And and uh, the interviewer goes oh, so you gotta, you got to keep your girlfriends away from P Diddy, and this was like a couple of years ago. And he goes girlfriends, you don't give a shit about your girlfriend. That's crazy to me.

Speaker 2:

Like that's, that's, that's, that's that's. I mean. He's that gay, Like he's really that gay, that's, that's, that's. I mean. He's that gay, Like he's really that gay. And that one where he gets beat in the they're saying she escaped from a party like wanted to freak off or whatever.

Speaker 1:

You remember that girl. What was her weird? She was the one girl that acted like she was black and she was white. And I ain't talking about the running president, I'm talking about she was the head of the NAACP.

Speaker 2:

Who that lady you're talking about? The running president I'm talking about she was the head of the NAACP.

Speaker 1:

Who that lady you're talking about? No, no, no, no. It was that one weird girl, Remember she was. I was black and she was white as shit. You know what I'm talking about. I think she was the head of the NAACP. No, no, no, no, no. I know which one you're talking about. No, that party with a friend and they told her that they had to take blood. Remember?

Speaker 1:

I told you about that before they wanted they wanted to take blood and she had to give up her phone and shit. She looked there she says I ain't going to this party. She turned around, got back into uber you had to go to go to a diddy party. I don't know if it was a diddy party, but it was one of them, higher up parties really yeah, you had to give up your phone and give up blood yeah, they wanted to prick her and get some blood from her.

Speaker 2:

She was like hell, no, what the hell's going on at that kind of party? Jesus, that's all blackmail shit they want to do and they don't want you to have no proof of nothing. I was like, wow, that's crazy.

Speaker 1:

She's like yeah, I'm good she left. They should like that would be a way better party for sure. No, not if you're trying to like. If you was promoting your bar, you had a big old party or you want people to? No, I get that.

Speaker 2:

But if you're having a party with friends, you guys will have a lot more fun. If you just take everybody's phone.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you're talking about the rudeness. Oh, hold on, I gotta catch this call while you're in the middle of a conversation.

Speaker 2:

Yeah one of the one of the guests on one of joean's shows. He was talking about how kids can't watch a movie today, and that's true with Dylan. Dylan, I can't get him to like. It's rare that I can get him to sit through a movie. I think maybe one I remember him ever sitting through. You just can't get him to sit through a movie. Can't get him to even watch a football game. He watches the highlights, only the highlight reels. That's it. He watches the highlight reels, that's it, yeah but listen when you're at home.

Speaker 1:

I bet you look at your phone way more than you do TV. Oh, I don't watch TV at all. I'm only on my phone, that's horrible.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean I am, I'm not saying, I'm that but I can sit and watch a movie. I can set a TV, I can set my phone down and watch a movie. These kids coming up today, they can't relax and watch a movie, no more.

Speaker 1:

While you're watching a movie. If that phone rings, you're going to answer it.

Speaker 2:

I'll answer it, but I'm talking about like scrolling through it or whatever. But Dylan, if you take that phone from him or you take that device from him every time, he's got all the energy in the world he can't sit still. He's just like he can't sit still. I mean you get, you take the phone from him. He wants to play board games. He wants to do this, he wants to go out, play with his friends. He wants.

Speaker 2:

He cannot just sit down and relax, he can't do it. I mean it takes everything in his body. Like he'll get up like on the weekends I still get up pretty early and amanda will sleep in and dylan will get up. Like on the weekends I still get up pretty early and Amanda will sleep in and Dylan will get up, sometimes a little bit before Amanda, and he'll sit there patiently trying to wait. But as soon as I'm ready to like go outside and smoke or something, it's like can I get on my phone. You know it's like he just he can't relax and that's that's a bad part of like that's not good for every. I mean you gotta be able to relax and watch a movie and enjoy, not even not per se, a movie, but read a book, watch a football game? I mean, like I said, dylan can't sit through a football game and watch it.

Speaker 1:

That's not good, dude man. When I was that age, I couldn't sit through shit either.

Speaker 2:

A football game I could.

Speaker 1:

Hell, no, I couldn't. Oh yeah, I don't know none of the sports I could have watched.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I, I loved sports.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, I could have but see, he's probably one of the ones I like to play. He don't want to watch it, yeah I guess I watched.

Speaker 2:

You know something else I did this week. I watched a video. It was remember that shooter and uh, what is that sharding that had killer written on his shirt when he went to court or whatever.

Speaker 2:

So that when he had that written on the court in a courtroom, you thought what a fucking asshole, what a piece of shit. You know what I'm saying. And then I was watching the video. This video is the interview. It's on YouTube for anybody wants to go watch it. It's an interview of him with the police right after when they arrest him and they bring him in the whatever what do they call it Interrogation room.

Speaker 2:

There you go, they bring him in there and it's all recorded when they're sitting down and the video's out there you can watch it. And he actually has a shirt on, a sweatshirt that says Killer on it at that time when he did the the murders in the school. He has a shirt on that says killer at that time and he bought it from hot topics. It was just a shirt at hot topics that they had. He just bought it at hot topics, which I think is bizarre and crazy that they even have that shirt. That's fucked up. But anyways, regardless.

Speaker 2:

I watched the interview and you know what? He seems like a good kid when they're interviewing him how he just murdered these people and he seems like just a. It's scary to me, dude. I look at him I go holy shit, right, just an average kid. Yeah, he's just a dumb, stupid kid. And it's like they're interviewing him and they're like what did you hope to achieve? He goes I don't know, I didn't achieve nothing. I don't know, I didn't achieve nothing. I don't know what I was thinking.

Speaker 2:

He literally found his uncle's gun the day before and did it. Wow, it's like what in the hell? And then he goes into court with that killer on his shirt like just total assholes out. After that. Clearly you know what I mean. But you're watching the interview and it's like he's getting upset. You know what I mean. It's like wow.

Speaker 2:

And he said he only ever had a thought of even doing such a thing for about two weeks and coincidentally he bought the shirt two weeks before that. So I think maybe he seen the shirt, thought it was cool, and then all of a sudden got the idea of it. Maybe possibly, I don't know, I don't know what it was, he didn't tell, but watching that was wild to watch that and see him right afterwards and like how he was acting, like it just I mean I, he seemed remorseful and everything dude, like I mean, yeah, I would say even remorseful. He said that he had two magazines with him. He shot the whole one, emptied it out and then just ran and got out of there and didn't even he, said he. I think he said when he got to the one park he took the magazine out and put another one in, but he never shot it again. After that he said he just didn't want to shoot. No more he, he was like I, I just like I'd already done too much. It's like what the hell?

Speaker 2:

yeah, it doesn't make sense it does not make sense and you ruined all these people's lives and it's just, oh it was, but I you know what you need to do. What's that?

Speaker 1:

don't look into nothing else for two weeks why have you ever? Had a little break.

Speaker 2:

It's too much getting too much in there. Well, I can't help, I can't I. When you see that, like the interview of that kid and he was such the asshole you know what I mean in court, with that killer written on his shirt and stuff I mean I, I can't help but click, I gotta see it, I gotta see how it is.

Speaker 1:

Try to figure stuff out in your own. Yeah, yeah, it makes it just doesn't work.

Speaker 2:

It makes it worse. He said he thought he was going to get killed that day. He thought they would just shoot him. He didn't think he was coming out of there alive. Wow, that's crazy. How old was he? 16, 15?, something like that. Yeah, 16, I think I want to say 16 or 17. I can't remember Young, young, stupid kid and he said he didn't even have an issue with anybody that he shot at, like he didn't even know exactly who he shot at.

Speaker 1:

That's totally random.

Speaker 2:

That's what he said he goes like and his sister was in the room.

Speaker 2:

Did you know that? His sister was in the cafeteria when that happened? He was sitting with her for a minute, walked away. He said he kept walking to the bathroom because he didn't want to do it and then finally he just did it. It's so weird, dude. And he wasn't even like he was just getting ready to go to Auburn Career Center. I guess he wasn't even like going to school that day. He was going to Auburn Career Center, which is.

Speaker 2:

I worked on Auburn Career Center years ago. We've done work out there. We did a record. That was where I did that recording studio where the doors broke off. That I told you because they were like, they were solid plaster doors, they were like three by eight double doors and we tap conned them in real good and all this stuff and we set them in Went home. We set them at the end of the day, the doors. We come in the next morning and the doors are like that, busted the whole frame sheared like four tap cons off on each side, just sheared them off. It was just the doors were just laying on the floor like that no-transcript.

Speaker 1:

No, I was working for somebody else, I was just an apprentice at the time.

Speaker 2:

You had to get a hold of. You had to get a hold of J&A. Yeah, that's a J&A problem.

Speaker 1:

Hey, you remember the cool stuff they used to have in the old houses? Man, they were cool, like the pocket doors, the niches and stuff Like all the little bookshelves built in yeah, the bookshelves, the curial cabinets. My favorite was the damn chute for the laundry chute. Yeah, they don't do that shit. No more man. That was cool. They do them still. I ain't never seen them since then. Oh yeah, they still do them.

Speaker 2:

They still do laundry shoots. I haven't seen them. Now they got that one that vacuums it. Have you seen that? Uh-uh, they got one that's cool as shit. You just like throw your clothes and it just goes and it sucks them in. You ain't seen that? Uh-uh, oh, it's cool. I'll send it to you next time.

Speaker 1:

I just ain't seen them in these houses?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, laundry chutes, yeah we used to go down my aunts and on the East side of Lorraine we used to like we'd go down it, We'd go down the chute, We'd have the basket down there with all the blankets and shit and we'd just, you know, and we'd go from the second floor all the way to the basement.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You'd be in your bedroom, go out in the hallway and throw them in the chute, go all the way down. That was cool.

Speaker 2:

I mean, yeah, I don't know why they stopped doing that, but they do do it still sometimes.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's probably somebody like us be like hey, you know what, Put a laundry chute in there. You know what I mean, but I think there's a lot of stuff they took out of housing.

Speaker 2:

I think they might be dangerous.

Speaker 1:

Well, you wouldn't make them big enough for a kid to go down?

Speaker 2:

No, well, there's that. I think there's that part of it, but I think they're also, like flame, dangerous, like they don't contain the flames.

Speaker 1:

That makes sense. Because, if they were down on the bottom, it would just shoot up to all the floors.

Speaker 2:

Yep, yep, yep. I think it doesn't contain the flames. I think is one of the issues, of issues with them. I think that when they do have them, they have to have like some, like some fire rated uh what do you call them? They're uh, I forget what they call those things they like, they like they. They pop when it gets hot, so it blocks yeah they're, uh, they're fire doors basically, or shutters or something like that.

Speaker 1:

But it makes sense, but I'm just saying I thought they were cool yeah, yeah they are. They still have them in a lot of the old houses in the kitchens of the old houses I like I'm down 28th street and stuff they had the um ironing board in the kitchen that folded up into the wall and then it closed yeah, that way you keep a woman where she belongs. In the kitchen. You get in trouble with that shit, boss.

Speaker 2:

You got to keep them in check.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but that was pretty cool. It was right there in the kitchen too.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, nobody irons anymore though. Yeah, now they got sprays and shit. Well, you know what I didn't realize? Years ago my grandma's boyfriend after my grandfather died, she dated a guy, owned avon cleaners and menswear and he was saying, like that, his business was like big because he had like four stores I think at one time, something like that, and they did drapes. They did, uh, they would drive around, they'd pick up your clothes, take them to the dry cleaners, bring them back, press them, all that stuff. He said all of a sudden, when washing wear came out, and I'm like, huh, he goes.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, washing wear. Like when they started doing washing wear, and I'm like that's a thing. You know what I mean? I remember him telling me about it and it's. I mean, this was years ago. He told me about it in the 90s, but yeah, that's what killed like the ironing and all that stuff, is that apparently clothes are wash and wear. Now he goes. That's just how. What clothes are? Now he goes. But at one time they were wash and wear is what they were called where you could actually just wash and wear them and not have to iron stuff. He goes. And then after that eventually it went away to the. You know you got it in from suits and stuff because it used to be, everybody wore a suit too, you know, all the time.

Speaker 1:

And the hat. Yeah all that stuff, I don't think they shit no more. No, I mean, people wear hats, but yeah, like these, but not the dress hat. Only the bald people.

Speaker 3:

I don't care about that You're right.

Speaker 1:

You got people who wear a hat and got Gallagher hair. The middle's all bald and they got hair hanging out the side, trying to act like they got hair.

Speaker 2:

Looking like a full head.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, take it off and it's all like whoo.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, this guy, I knew Mark Jacoby. When I first met him, we were, I mean, he's he may be older to me, but not by much and I mean I met him at maybe 19 years old, 20 years old, 20 years old I guess. And we're working at that. We're building that target in Strongsville, across from the Strongsville Mall, and we're up on the roof and it's hot as hell up there and he always had a baseball cap on, looked like he had a full head of hair and he pulled that thing off to like wipe the sweat off dude.

Speaker 1:

Wipe his head off.

Speaker 2:

He only had hair where the hat wasn't. That was the only spot he had and I was dying. I'm like whoa what. I didn't say nothing, but I I'm sure if he seen my face I would have told it all.

Speaker 1:

You thought. You thought he could take it off and you just seen this big old there wasn't shit there.

Speaker 2:

I mean, he looked like homer simpson under that thing.

Speaker 1:

Jacoby, he was a funny guy now, as soon as mine start going. I was like I shaved it, I didn't care yeah, I mean that's that's what I would do.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think I would do that too, I wouldn't care, I mean, if you, I mean it doesn't matter if you wear a hat either. I guess the only reason that I would wear a hat like, say, anthony does you know what I mean when he does it it's just easier. You're going to work every day, you throw the hat on, you don't have to shave your head constantly, you know? I mean, that would be a pain in the ass to have to constantly shave your head, you know, adding to your your daily chores. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2:

Well, I got that nice little thing is that, yeah, that one that you hold in your palm. Yeah, I got one.

Speaker 1:

It's junk though I gotta get a good one oh, you gotta spend the money on them. The one you got doesn't work it does, but I gotta like take the clippers through it first.

Speaker 2:

You know you gotta keep up with it yeah, and I ain't doing it yeah, you gotta do it, like every other day or something.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you ain't doing that. That's what I'm saying. That's why I would just wear a hat and let it grow out. You know, I mean, that's what I would do. I would be just like anthony. I do this, and not because I was trying to hide being bald, it would just just so I didn't have to shave my head. That's all the only reason I would do it. I think I don't know if that's oh, I don't know if that's fun or not, like you know what I mean fun, yeah, shaving your head every day, yeah it doesn't, doesn't sound like it would.

Speaker 1:

I tried to do it like every day and it didn't work. I was like man, screw this shit you were, you were trying to do it every day. I was trying to keep it clean and shave it all the time. It was like maybe two weeks and I said, yeah, I ain't doing this shit, no more so I think the government's trying to set us up again.

Speaker 2:

Here's my next conspiracy that. Oh, now you're the one well, this one isn't like some conspiracy, that's out there. But I heard that they're proposing a 28th amendment right now like right now they're trying to propose it, and it's called a continuity in government amendment. What is it about? Basically, it gives them the right to install congressmen if, like a hundred congressmen were shot at one time congress or senate were shot at one time is that like a planning ahead of time? That's what it seems like, right Golly, doesn't it seem that way?

Speaker 1:

Well, yeah, I'd be like hell, no.

Speaker 2:

Period you can't do it without voting, or you wouldn't have to vote, they could just install them. No Hell no, that's scary dude. Why would anybody do that? Why would anybody do?

Speaker 1:

that.

Speaker 2:

I mean just insinuating it Right. You know what I mean that a hundred of them, if a hundred, If this happened to happen. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

No, yeah, yeah, that's nuts.

Speaker 2:

They're speaking it into existence, kind of Definitely. Yeah, that's crazy, that's literally happening, that's literally that's been proposed.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I bet it has that's a happening that's literally been proposed.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I bet it has. That's a conspiracy.

Speaker 1:

I'm sorry it is. I'm sure you got more.

Speaker 2:

What else you got. Did you know that 40% of the American money was printed in the last 10 years?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's crazy. I did hear that a bunch of times.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's crazy and it makes sense. I've been dealing with that. It feels like it's all been printed in the last four years because I've been dealing with these money that can't New bills. Yeah, you can't get them apart and they won't go through the counter. You can't separate them. They're sticking together because they're like so crisp and new, yeah, probably made with cheaper paper.

Speaker 1:

I'm just kidding.

Speaker 2:

I don't know, man, that's like something they take. They have to take so much effort into that, like trying to stop them from counterfeiting it and this and that.

Speaker 1:

Man, they counterfeit. I remember when they came out with them stripes and they was like, oh, this is harder to counterfeit.

Speaker 2:

They had counterfeit probably that week. Yeah, they say american money is the most counterfeited in the world, but I think that everything's based on the american dollar right now, so that would make sense. I don't know with that, what's that other one that they're trying to do? Bricks or whatever.

Speaker 1:

They might start counterfeiting that next yeah, but that's that other currency they're trying to start.

Speaker 2:

I think it's already started actually, but they're trying to base economy on it. That's what they want to base economy on. See, I didn't realize that everything's based on the American dollar. I didn't realize that's based on the American dollar. I didn't realize that, johnny, that's not true. They would take them because that's where I pull them out of and I can't separate them from. He said the carb crack machine won't take them. No, it takes them because I can't get them, damn things apart, when they're coming out of here I'm trying to count them and it just doesn't work. Sometimes I got to run them through that machine, that counter, like four times and then and crinkle them up.

Speaker 1:

You ever get? I don't know, I don't know, like If you put a 20 in the machine and you had two of them stuck together, would it take both of them In the counter In the machine?

Speaker 2:

like for the pull tab? I don't know.

Speaker 3:

I hope so, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I really don't know. I don't, I I know if flaw, if there's a flaw to it, when it goes through the counter, for sure it like fluffs and stops and throws one and it just like messes up for sure when you go to the water, if you put it in the machine and they're stuck, because there's times where I got an extra 20 because they were stuck together, oh yeah, and I probably from here gave them away the same way probably I hope you gave them back to me.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's probably where you got them from. I hope so, but I mean I I, when I look at that, that why is it printed? Why are we printed 40 of the money in the last like recently? Why? Why is it printed? Why are we printed 40% of the money recently? Why is that? Because it ain't worth as much. That's why we're just printing it, right. We're just straight printing money. This is the reason I find that to be. I guess this is my point. I guess maybe you're not understanding. Isn't everybody using credit cards and stuff? Wouldn't we be printing the least amount of money right now? I mean, everybody's using debit cards and cash app cards.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you're right, I mean, that's where it doesn't make sense to me. Why have we printed 40% of the money in a time when nobody's actually using money? They're using cards.

Speaker 1:

Because they want you to take and pull money. And then when they're basically taking your money out of your card, and then when they cancel out the dollar bill and just say, hey, we're going to credit cards, you just lost a lot of money, because if you got, your cash, you lose it all, yeah, when they go to just only cryptocurrency.

Speaker 1:

Or credits like your credit, they want that. How many credits you got all yeah, when they go to that crypto, to just only cryptocurrency, currency or credits like you're a credit, they want many credits you got.

Speaker 2:

Well, that's what it is, that's what cryptocurrency, that's what they want to do. They want to do a one world currency. That's the plan. I think that, well, that's not the point. There's some people's plan. Is that that that's how they want it? Could you imagine, dude, what do you do about side jobs and stuff like that?

Speaker 1:

That would just be scary, it'll be all trade Border Barter.

Speaker 2:

Barter.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, just barter.

Speaker 2:

Well, how's Diddy going to pay off chicks and stuff like that?

Speaker 1:

I mean that's not.

Speaker 2:

There's not enough bartering in the world.

Speaker 1:

What do you mean, chicks? He's going to be with a bunch of dudes or guys. How's he going to barter off with guys? I?

Speaker 2:

don't know One baby oil or two baby oils. Did you see that? They're saying that there was like a chemical in the. The courts aren't saying that. But, the interwebs are saying that it's not baby oil, that it's like a chemical in it. And what is a chemical for? It's like I don't know it's initials. It sounds like it's like date rape type shit, though On the baby oil In the baby oil. Yeah, Let me rub your back, yeah, so it sounds like something like that.

Speaker 1:

Ah, that's crazy.

Speaker 2:

But why would you even let a guy rub your back anyways, regardless.

Speaker 3:

You know what I mean?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, even your back anyways, regardless, you know what I mean. Yeah, even if it's p diddy, you're like, you know, maybe you're starstruck or whatever. But I mean I guess if you're a dumb 13 year old kid, you know, thinking this is the way of the world, you're not even wrong.

Speaker 1:

Hey, when you say no diddy to d. Does it make sense? Does it does still work?

Speaker 2:

I don't know. I just got to watch, I got to listen to the rest of that Cat Williams. I've seen the whole thing once, but I want to see the whole thing again and I'm into it now. But I haven't got to the part where I remember when I first saw it. I remember what he said. He said sometimes you got to tell Diddy no, and I'm like what the hell? Like it threw me for a loop. I'm like huh, what is he talking about? Yeah, that was like that. So I haven't gotten to that part because that's when it all kind of like he says what he said and it's not real long what he says about Diddy, but he says they're all everybody's going down in 2024.

Speaker 1:

So I just it's going to be an epstein thing yeah, or weinstein, or weinstein, whatever, weinstein, epstein.

Speaker 2:

Epstein's the one with the island that was doing the stuff, weinstein's the one that was like making people's careers by. But cat williams said an. He said Weinstein, ask if he could suck his dick. He goes in front of all my people, he goes. And when I got in and I told him no, he goes. So when I got on the film, he goes. And I seen all these other men in there.

Speaker 1:

I thought what did they do to get there?

Speaker 2:

Right, right, I seen that you know what I mean.

Speaker 1:

They got something with Suge Knight saying something about the egg thing. Did you see that one?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, something about yeah.

Speaker 1:

Jesus Christ, what the fuck is going on?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, if you couldn't get the egg in there. You ain't put in the work yet. Yeah, if it busts, yeah, you ain't put in the work.

Speaker 1:

yet if the egg busts, yeah, get out of here.

Speaker 2:

But he said that what he was saying with the Weinstein thing, though. That's why I think, Because Diddy was making careers, Weinstein was making careers. Epstein was just doing sick, perverted shit with rich other people. Yeah, but neither one of their shit came out. Yeah, but Epstein didn't make. Nobody made their career hanging with Epstein.

Speaker 1:

They made their careers with Weinstein. But what I'm saying is none of the list came out for nobody. Yeah, like, where's all this? You got all this evidence. How long has it been? How, oh you know what? Another thing is there's. There's kind of like bets going on of how long, how long and how is they gonna kill off diddy?

Speaker 2:

oh yeah, I keep seeing all the, all, the um, the things where hillary clinton's doing it, or something, yeah, yeah, yeah, Like Hillary Clinton's trying to kill him or something. Yeah, yeah yeah, Slipping on the floor.

Speaker 1:

I think, or something Choking on the chicken On the baby oil.

Speaker 2:

He's going to slip on some baby oil on the floor.

Speaker 1:

The chicken oil was funny I don't know. We might have him choke on a chicken.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I don't understand. I mean with that whole thing, because they already said he's on suicide watch. That's how the other dude was too. Yeah, but you know what, if I'm him, I'd probably do that too. Fuck it. What do you mean? I'd probably I wouldn't. If I did all that shit and it's about to come out, I'd probably just off myself.

Speaker 1:

No, because, listen, he's gay, he's going to prison. Oh yeah, that's different, that's a little different. Oh yeah, you're right, he could be like huh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he's going to the freak off of all freak offs.

Speaker 1:

He's just going to step up from his other party, without baby oil, though.

Speaker 2:

I think he could get it. What happens to all his money? Then though, if that goes down, what happens? Because I think his kids are involved too, like?

Speaker 1:

they're gonna take it, government's gonna split it up between each other, and that's all what money that's what they're gonna say.

Speaker 3:

What?

Speaker 1:

money. There was no money. We didn't find no money.

Speaker 2:

Well, I mean, I don't know how that works, like if I mean that, new five million dollar boat.

Speaker 1:

I got that. That wasn't had nothing to do with that I. I was getting that before that. Yeah, I had I already put the paper down.

Speaker 2:

I mean, how does that work? I mean, if you're that like I would think you would take that money, right, I think you have the right to take that money. Who? The government Maybe? Yeah, I mean not to take it not to the government, but yeah, I mean not to take it, not to the government, but I would say, seize it and give it to victims. Maybe split it up between victims Maybe? Yeah, I don't know, I would think so. Why not?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I don't think I'd let it float where it is.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't think he gets to keep it. I think you give it to his victims.

Speaker 1:

I think I think all of the, the rights for all that music goes to the people, that the artists I think that goes to the artists. The uh money goes to the victims, uh you know shit like that.

Speaker 2:

Have you listened to any diddy music since then?

Speaker 1:

no, I didn't really listen to him before, like if it came on the radio or whatever, I'd listen to it, but I didn't feels like.

Speaker 2:

It seems like it would feel dirty to listen to it now. Yeah, like R Kelly. Yeah, I don't listen to R Kelly no more either. That's true too. Yeah, that's a shame too, because he was a shit. Yeah, he was good. Why is it that all these like I can't figure out why, all these fucking famous people and artists and musicians, why are they all so freaking weird dude, weird dude. Like, why are they like so like? Why it seems like in their all it seems like so many are gay. Like why are they just like? Is that like a thing? Like? Is it? Is it like when I said something about my one buddy who had a success because he was ugly? Is it kind of the same thing? Like they have success because they're not married and they're not dealing with like married life and family and kids and stuff.

Speaker 2:

I don't know, like my, you know. You know I'm talking about right, my one buddy that's a comedian and he's had pretty good success. And I always say it's because he was uglier when he was young so he couldn't get a girlfriend, so he had time to go.

Speaker 2:

Well, he had to be funny, but he also didn't have like nothing holding him back. Oh, you know, he worked at. He worked at where hilarities or something at the door, and then somebody got him an option to go to Funny Bones, omaha and he just could go. He didn't have a girlfriend or family here, you know what I mean. He could just go. He was a single guy, you know what I mean. So I actually say it worked to his benefit to be an awkward kid when he was young. You know what I mean.

Speaker 3:

That's kind of not a nice thing to say. Well, he knows he's ugly, jesus Christ.

Speaker 2:

Oh my God. I mean, if he doesn't know he's ugly by now, I'm sure somebody's told him right.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but beauty's in the eye of the holder.

Speaker 2:

Beauty's in the eye of the beer holder.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that too.

Speaker 2:

No, nowadays it's different Girls date ugly guys. I don't know what that is. For some reason it seems like they just switched over to ugly guys. Some guys are like, I mean, I don't know what happened Somewhere along the way, some ugly dudes. You start seeing it and you're like, wow, that girl's way too pretty for that ugly dude. But they must have like a personality or funny, funny something. Money funny I haven't seen them with money. That they're like like, that it's like oh, you've never been to louisiana no, I have never been to louisiana.

Speaker 2:

That's how it is down there. Oh yeah, that's, the girls are after the money. That's all gold diggers, pretty much. I thought that louisiana was like all broke, poor people nah towards new orleans.

Speaker 1:

No, it's not like that. You got the french quarters and all that. All the people got money those are big money.

Speaker 2:

People are big money, big big money people. Yeah, like the people that were setting up kennedy to get shot probably the ones that was invited to dady and stuff.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, probably.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, isn't what's his name, isn't? Who's from Louisiana. One of them is Is it Lil Wayne? Yeah, or was he from Baltimore? Oh, he's from Louisiana, louisiana, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Ninth Ward. What's that? It's called the Ninth Ward area in there.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I got you. Does he live there now? Got you. Does he live there now? I don't know. Oh, okay, because I thought he was a kid in baltimore. Doesn't he tell a story?

Speaker 1:

where a cop comes in. I thought that was steps over him or something. I thought it was baltimore or a cop saved his life where he snatched him up when he got shot yeah, well, he shot himself, I think yeah, yeah I think he was playing with a gun, or someone who's a kid or whatever, something I don't remember.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't know, goofiness, goofiness, but you got anything else you wanted to get into today. No, I wanted to talk to. The only thing I wanted to bring up is a clam bake. So anybody who wants to come to the clam bake, don't forget to get your clam bake tickets. This week it's next Sunday, october 6th at 1 o'clock We'll have the half chicken, the corn on the cob I'm going to get the corn from Fennec, I think, or Fennec, I mean.

Speaker 1:

I had some last week too. Oh my God, that corn is so amazing. Yeah, it's so good.

Speaker 2:

Hopefully he still has it. I'm hoping that I get there in time.

Speaker 2:

He told me it's going to be close, but he says that every year it's going to be close, but he knows I want it anyway, so I got the half. Chickens are ordered. I think we're in good shape, Joe, this is the week we're out here from Joe every day. He's very good about it. I mean he makes sure everything's going where it's supposed to be going and doing and he's got everybody where they need to be and he puts the time and effort in this week and I mean he really puts the time in.

Speaker 2:

So the tickets are here, you can get them inside at the inside bar. They have them in there. And then Joe Bennett, if you run into him, he should have some on him, and so should Keith Marsh, for anybody who wants to get tickets for next sunday for the browns game, the browns away game, and uh, it's gonna be a good time. I'm excited, I love my. I love the clam bake. That's my favorite one, I think it does get really good yeah.

Speaker 2:

Well, I like joe bennett always does a good job with everything he does. Just got to do more with him. More with him, yeah, More with him, yeah yeah. The problem is that seafood gets so expensive and we're just not like it's hard to get people to come in and spend that kind of money a lot. I mean they'll come in for events that we have with them.

Speaker 1:

I'm not saying once a week, but I'm saying more often.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I'd love to. Yeah, I wish we could sell perch every day. I wish it would sell like it used to, but it just doesn't because the price is too. People can't afford it like that, no more, and we can't afford to let us sit there and, you know, go bad or whatever. You know I mean, unfortunately. I wish we could, because I actually enjoy the perch. I never was a perch guy until I got this place. Now I love it. Oh yeah, so all right.

Speaker 1:

Well, there's a difference too.

Speaker 2:

It's Lake Erie, lake Erie, yellow perch. Yeah, I mean, I never even was into that, though when I was I just didn't wasn't really my thing. Like I mean, I've never really been into fish too much when I was younger never, not that I can ever remember being into it.

Speaker 1:

I always liked fish but did you? Yeah, I didn't go out of my way to go get it.
