0:54

seven or eight inches it's the most snow in

0:57

one day that they will get in an entire

0:59

year. Here, I've seen snow here but

1:02

1:04

Missouri or further north or New England

1:06

or and what

1:09

I'm wearing right now I'm gonna have to take it off in

1:11

a minute because it keeps hitting the mic is a spangles visor

1:14

that was brought to the Wichita show by termite.

1:16

Thank you I received the visor I am

1:18

gonna wear it in the Midwest if

1:20

I golf just see if anybody notices

1:22

because this is an employee visor. Spangles

1:25

for those of you who don't know is

1:28

a Kansas fast food place family

1:30

owned they shoot their own

1:32

commercials they're on television locally and they look

1:35

like they've been shot by somebody on somebody's

1:37

iPhone. Yeah, let's get rid

1:39

of that for now, but I thank you to the termite

1:41

who brought this, it did make me laugh. They

1:45

so they have great burgers onion rings the bartender and

1:47

told me get the onion rings which I did they

1:49

were worth it worth every calorie,

1:52

but they also serve alcohol

1:54

like I can't believe that this. This

1:57

fast food place like picture. Not

2:00

even if they could take theirs is I

2:02

mean isn't you can eat in there? Which I

2:05

have, but I'm and I've been there before.

2:07

I like to go out as a chain or

2:09

seizure drink specials. At this time it was

2:11

edged vanilla Jim Beam and Pepsi slushy. Yeah, I

2:13

got it. Will Here's the thing. you can

2:15

go through the drive through. And

2:17

they put it in a vacuum sealed bag.

2:19

It is such a mid west the the

2:21

Now don't drink that until you get home.

2:23

Okay and. Unopposed like Argos. Okay, so we just

2:25

trust you're not going to do that. I mean

2:28

secretly, I went to a party, got in front

2:30

of a pawnshop, it over. There but that i

2:32

that I don't want to put this on video that

2:34

a bird in the law so i waited till i

2:36

got by to the hotel and because as hell paranoid

2:38

that's a catholic school will do to you i we

2:40

know who's gonna go to the police gonna come tracked

2:42

me down into they don't know where i'm staying i'm

2:44

young but they know I have a show of they

2:46

wanted to do that. It

2:49

was way too sweet for me. Ah,

2:52

But. Just that they will give you. I know

2:54

Louisiana has drive. The daiquiri is as always make me

2:56

laugh too. But. You just don't see

2:58

Dr. Doolittle that often out of a facile

3:00

place enough. I like a cheeseburger, onion rings

3:02

in a Jim Beam slushy. What was that?

3:05

I have a screwdriver slushy that I really

3:07

did like either. That last summer he goes

3:09

a mimosa and. A screwdriver slushy. But

3:12

I like that they trust me. Don't drink,

3:14

It is acting sealed a little. Bit but I

3:16

you can rip it apart. I did of. The.

3:20

Onion rings are great. Which.

3:22

Is all was so cold it

3:24

i don't own below zero for

3:27

felt like. Twenty below.

3:29

So. I didn't really do much. I was gonna goes try

3:32

to see the House of the Be. Tk Killer cause

3:34

I'm kind of obsessed with Theory of Those, but

3:36

they wrecked it. And the bars at his

3:38

home He was he. Is. In a suburb

3:40

of Wichita. But it was like another. I don't

3:42

know. Thirty minutes from where as at so. I

3:44

ended just and of the lot. Now you

3:46

know, but I doubt that is you don't

3:49

know who to be. Tj Killer is. I'm.

3:51

Using Google that for the younger

3:54

saw. The children

3:56

as he sees that sick chances

3:58

serial killer. And then if you

4:00

go, his real name is Dennis Radar. His

4:03

daughter has done the most phenomenal job of being

4:05

the daughter of a serial killer I've ever seen.

4:07

She's like, she didn't do nothing for a while.

4:09

And then she, she, and unfortunately she was exactly

4:12

like, um, which also probably isn't helping her

4:14

point that at one point to be private,

4:17

but she's just written a, yeah, she's written

4:19

a book and she's just being honest and

4:21

okay, fine. That was my dad. Let's just get this out

4:23

of the way. Good move on her part. I thought, um,

4:27

Michael Somerville. She

4:30

moved to Minnesota. Yeah. Um, and

4:32

what are you going to do? Keep trying to hide. People are

4:34

going to find out. So just, that's a good idea. They just

4:37

go with it. Go, look, I didn't do it. He

4:39

did it. Yeah. That bastard. She didn't even talk to

4:41

him. I wouldn't either. Soon as I found all that

4:43

out, um, Michael Somerville with

4:45

Smithy's very funny comedian, also known as the beer

4:47

monster, Wichita first show

4:50

of the year, down in the balls of 101

4:52

year old theater, the fire. I'm

4:56

like, no, uh, we just got

4:58

12. 100 people in here. I,

5:00

I, if I ever start shows late,

5:03

just so you all know, I'm there at six. It's

5:05

because I want everybody to be able to get a

5:07

drink and I don't want to screw over the

5:09

opening act. I just 10 extra minutes.

5:11

That's all I asked for. I'm not pulling

5:13

some, um, you know, Kelly was two

5:15

hours late. Like, no, no, no, no.

5:18

But anyway, I've done and the fire alarm, I'm like,

5:20

no, we just got everybody in. Everybody's got a drink.

5:23

And then I realized like, nobody

5:25

takes fire alarm seriously anymore. Not in hotels. You

5:27

know, how many times I've walked out in the

5:30

hallway, bunch of other people walk, we all look at

5:32

each other and just go back in our room. I

5:34

mean, they have to come up with a

5:36

different thing because this, we

5:38

did have technically five, five,

5:41

four, four fire trucks showed up because

5:43

the popcorn machine caught on fire out

5:45

front. And

5:47

I went around the side. I knew nobody could see where I was

5:50

at. Let me tell you what, Wichita

5:52

single ladies smoking hot firefighters. It

5:55

was like watching Chicago fires. Yeah.

5:57

I was like, wow. look

6:00

at one another good look at one I'm like wow they

6:02

just keep filing out of these trucks all over

6:04

this stupid fucking popcorn machine just

6:06

throw water on it the popcorn machine died

6:08

us and well it's 2024 let's get new

6:11

popcorn machine Jesus God

6:13

but the people

6:15

were tweeting me

6:18

from the crowd going are we leaving I don't know

6:20

I'm 17 floors down

6:22

in a bunker but I was also so cold

6:24

because those old theaters it's not their fault they

6:26

just don't have eat especially

6:29

backstage then they put you down

6:31

heat rises it doesn't go down

6:33

and the basements are even colder

6:36

they do they do everything they can they get space

6:38

heaters and all that and it just doesn't I

6:41

wore long underwear first time I've worn long underwear

6:43

on stage top and bottom yep and and it

6:45

Tulsa too I sure

6:47

did um and

6:49

Tulsa was great too but let me get through these um

6:52

Isabelle who's my unofficial

6:54

Spanish pronunciation intern and

6:57

my street team to get me more Mexican

7:00

fans if possible I would like them she

7:02

sent me some Baracho jerky I've already

7:04

tasted this I don't know what this

7:06

is I've never seen it before in

7:08

my life it's really good because it has a kick

7:10

at the end it's kind of crunchy mm-hmm

7:13

I'm sure it's all sodium I'm sure that's why I

7:15

like it oh yeah

7:17

500 milligrams yeah

7:21

you call it stroke jerky target it's

7:23

really good though it's hot yeah

7:29

delicious what is about well

7:32

7:34

thank you moving on um

7:38

some stuff backstage well from

7:40

the mail Heather's done a Bigfoot sticker which

7:43

was I love the stickers they can keep

7:45

coming um Dan and Carol gave

7:47

me that visor that's who did that

7:49

I forgot maybe all the um they also

7:51

brought a zombie beer what

7:53

I'm drinking today though I bought

7:56

this when I was in Kansas cuz I

7:58

love the can as always I

8:00

don't even know what that is, but it also says the

8:02

Wizard of Hops. I

8:04

love it. Central Standard Wichita Brewing, Wichita

8:07

Kans is well

8:09

done. I like it. Lisa and

8:11

Rusty really made the beer monster happy because they brought 18

8:14

Butt Life in a thing, like

8:16

a perfect basket, a plastic basket.

8:18

I went, here, Michael. And

8:20

he's like, are these? I go, yeah, just

8:23

for you because there's already beer in there, but this

8:25

is your extra beer. And it lasted the whole weekend.

8:27

So it was great. Some

8:29

Bucky Beaver Nuggets. Then

8:32

they brought these Casey Pretzels and these are, Casey's is

8:34

a gas station. I don't know if it's out. I

8:36

don't remember if it was in California. It's mostly, I

8:38

know it from the Midwest. My

8:40

brother-in-law, man, it's a big Casey's fan. You could

8:42

put anything else, a Bucky's, a Love's, and he's

8:44

going straight to Casey's. I don't, I mean, it's

8:46

fine. He loves a pizza. A pizza,

8:48

yeah. Well, these

8:51

are their New Orleans style pretzel twists. And

8:54

nine out of 10 times I say don't disturb the

8:56

original product. This is

8:58

worth it. They're really good. Well,

9:02

yeah, they just wreck stuff with trying to season it and

9:04

a lot of stuff. Oh,

9:06

that's why it's a tangy combination of salt and

9:08

vinegar, sweet barbecue, and

9:11

a hint of spice. Well

9:13

done. I was hungry. So

9:16

well done on both of those. I'll get these

9:18

out of the way. Carol

9:20

and Ryan. Now somebody brought

9:22

me a bottle of Pinot Noir and

9:24

these little hot dog candies, but there was no card in the thing. Yeah,

9:27

I don't know. But

9:29

this is hot dog candy. This

9:32

looks terrifying, but I'm going

9:34

to do, oh, it's hard candy. Oh yeah. Holy

9:39

shit. You like it?

9:43

Yeah. Tastes like a hot

9:45

dog. Archie

9:48

McPhee hot dog candy.

9:51

This tin is really adorable too. It's

9:54

really weird. Yeah. I'm not going

9:56

to eat the whole thing. You won't hear me sucking on candy. That's

10:01

amazing. Huh. I

10:03

don't know how they did that. Carolyn

10:07

Ryan brought some Nebraska Ambriale. I

10:09

was loving Ambriale. Yeah, you can't have

10:11

too many. Uh-uh. Eric

10:14

and Julie brought some Haribou Bears. I say

10:16

it wrong. Haribo. Haribo.

10:18

I always said boom. And this beer. So

10:21

thank you guys for that.

10:25

And then we moved on down the road to Tulsa. The

10:28

drive from Wichita to Tulsa. There

10:32

were no cars. I mean, to

10:34

the point where you're like, you

10:36

hate traffic. But then

10:38

the other extreme of that is, holy fuck.

10:41

Where'd everybody go? What happened? Like, did

10:43

an alien come? Like, it was crazy

10:46

for miles. Not a car on our

10:48

side of the road. Not a car on the other side of the road. Then

10:52

we stopped at a gas station in the

10:54

middle of the night and they had a

10:57

fentanyl test strip machine. I posted

10:59

a video. Many termites started fighting

11:01

amongst themselves. I didn't say

11:03

if I was for or against it. I didn't even understand

11:05

what it was. I did by the time I left. I'm

11:07

like, oh, okay. So they're selling

11:09

test strips in a vending machine.

11:12

And you had to use a QO card. A QR. I

11:14

don't know if they're free. I don't know if they cost

11:16

money. But you test your drugs

11:19

for fentanyl. Well,

11:21

it was a gas station, but it was a

11:23

very normal get very clean, very bright. It was

11:26

a really nice gas station. So I

11:28

don't know. I just

11:30

never had seen that before. And then I posted the video. I

11:32

didn't know it was going to cause all that controversy, but they

11:35

weren't fighting with me. They're fighting with each

11:37

other. Some people think it's good. Some people think it's

11:39

bad. Some people think I was

11:41

just like, I've seen everything

11:43

and I've never seen this. So

11:46

Oklahoma. I

11:49

don't know what you're all doing now. But

11:53

that was in the gas station. It was really weird.

11:55

But Tulsa was nice and I got

11:57

to go tour. Anybody can go. They

12:00

just sent me a thing if I wanted

12:02

to come and I didn't even know about it

12:04

So for you younger termites the children you probably

12:07

won't know who Leon Russell is Guy

12:09

from he's dead now. He died not that long

12:11

ago. He's his 70s Old

12:14

rock guy, but also I don't know

12:16

they call it the Tulsa sound but

12:19

there's this studio down there much like

12:21

muscle Shoals this recording studio that

12:24

he was from Tulsa and it's

12:26

called the church studio And it was

12:28

just the coolest play people still record there,

12:30

but it's all been redone But they kept

12:32

the authenticity of the old-school stuff just Google

12:34

Leon Russell. You'll know a couple songs I

12:37

had the biggest hit I did not love it was

12:39

I thought it was creepy. It was called the mask

12:41

this masquerade yeah, yeah, I did love the other songs

12:43

though and Some

12:46

lady got the money. They were

12:48

gonna wreck it all and she saved it and

12:50

it's gorgeous and Super cool

12:52

to tour and he wrote songs and it

12:54

played for everybody from Elton John It

12:57

just goes on and on so a little educational fun in

12:59

Tulsa I went over

13:02

to find the Tulsa driller the giant most

13:04

biggest statue of an oil driller in the

13:06

world took a little video outside of there

13:08

for this thing and I

13:11

got a backstage from Rachel a joke writing

13:13

notebook Some Montana big

13:15

sky brewing from Michelle Melissa Marion Sheryl

13:18

Chip and Daisy, thank you for the beer

13:20

side. Oh, yeah, the beers. I had a wine glass. It was very very

13:22

nice And the

13:25

last one is a Oklahoma beer and

13:27

the best one was the jack the gentleman Jackalope. I really

13:30

liked it Yeah So

13:32

that was great. Anyway, so we're moving on I

13:38

Get you know, okay, so the foot the football was

13:40

on And I

13:42

always have the iPad backstage because I wanted so

13:45

beer monster can watch while I'm on stage and vice versa

13:47

and all that Stuff and I was very

13:49

proud to see Charles Barkley who I love Everybody's

13:52

mad about peacock that

13:54

you know, I'm like everybody in the world

13:56

is either at over at their parents house trying

13:58

to do it for them Or calling them on the

14:01

phone, see if your mom and dad likes

14:03

sports. My mom and dad got to the

14:05

point and then couldn't figure the rest of it out.

14:07

And I'm like, yeah, you know, like they're chief sense. Like

14:09

it's just so mean. I said it last

14:12

time, I won't go off on it again,

14:14

but I was very happy to see Charles

14:16

Barkley said it was a really piece of

14:18

shit move and that Roger Goodell is greedy.

14:20

And I hope everybody who did it cancels

14:22

it tomorrow, today, tomorrow, whatever. You signed up,

14:25

pay your money. Like Louis

14:27

said, why not just say the game is

14:29

599 and

14:32

leave it on network and just charge people instead

14:35

of, cause my mom and dad

14:37

know how to do that. It's just mean

14:39

to old people. It's mean to people with old

14:41

TVs because your TV can't download apps properly. Just

14:44

shitty. And

14:47

the football to watch the Cowboys lose the

14:49

way they lost and watch Stephen A. Smith

14:52

this morning of first take. I, the problem

14:56

to me is Jerry Jones. He's

14:59

Henry VIII. And if you're going

15:01

to work for Henry, you have to know King Henry is the

15:03

king and you're not. So are you going to get a super

15:05

awesome coach or are you just going to get some guy who's

15:07

going to yield to this guy's wishes? So

15:10

until Jerry's gone, I don't

15:12

see how the Cowboys fix this. You

15:14

can blame the defense. You can blame Dak

15:17

Prescott. You can blame Mike McCarthy. But

15:19

his kids are looking at him. Then they're

15:21

never getting, well, it doesn't matter if Jerry

15:23

Jones dies cause his son looks like him,

15:25

his grandson's looks like him, his nephew. They

15:27

all have square heads and they're all, they

15:30

look like Russian dolls. One pops out of an egg and

15:32

there's another one and another one, it's never going to end.

15:35

So for my cowboy friend,

15:38

Ron White, it's buckle

15:41

in buddy. I don't see it. No,

15:44

cause who wants to work for him? He's

15:47

doing the press conferences. Shut

15:49

up, dude. You're an owner. Nobody needs to

15:51

see you. The half of the teams

15:53

in the NFL, I can't even tell you who wants them cause

15:56

I don't see him. He's out there getting

15:58

well, I'm super disappointed and I think we could have done. this

16:00

and that's before they interview the coach or

16:02

the players. Yeah. Oh my God.

16:07

Normally they show his box a

16:09

hundred times in a game. They

16:11

were really really and I felt

16:14

the announcers were cheering it on

16:16

too. I don't

16:19

know. I was happy to see Green

16:23

Bay because I like Jordan Love a lot and I

16:25

just even if I wanted to

16:27

root on behalf of my Texas friends for the

16:29

Cowboys, I'm not going to let myself get involved

16:31

in that disappointment every time.

16:33

Well, we're 12 and oh, well, you

16:36

don't get that excited if you beat the Jets.

16:38

Okay. Really? I'm there's a lot

16:40

of people, a lot of teams that I think are in college that might be

16:42

able to beat the Jets. I know that people go, you

16:44

don't know what you're talking about. That's enough about

16:47

sports. But moving on to

16:49

we have King News, but no Queen

16:51

News. Well, Queen News, Tay

16:53

Tay was at the Kansas City game leading

16:56

the cheering in the box with mama Kelsey, the

16:58

chiefs. I'm proud of the Kansas City. I don't

17:00

know if I'm proud of them or they're

17:03

not smart enough to know better, but

17:05

I, it looked good on TV. All

17:08

the Missouri, Kansas people showed up. Stadium

17:10

was full, freezing. I mean, I

17:12

went to the game in Kansas City against Buffalo

17:14

weeks ago and it was like 30

17:17

and I bought, it was like a

17:19

hot chocolate with some liquor in it.

17:21

I don't know. Cause it was too cold for

17:23

a beer. So those

17:25

people, props to you. The

17:27

water was freezing. They took it out of the thing and

17:30

the whole thing just like, like,

17:32

wow. They

17:36

should have just sold like whiskeys and hot

17:38

things. Well,

17:43

it doesn't matter what, no,

17:46

so Tay Tay was there in

17:48

her custom made coat. I did like some

17:50

lady on Twitter posted and you

17:55

Taylor Swift and there's pictures on the, they

17:57

never heard the box and then people. Go

18:00

18:02

times on sideline and some lady

18:04

took a picture of it She goes. Oh my god.

18:06

They're showing him and I'm again. What a distraction How

18:08

18:10

him, but I like Eminem too

18:12

So go ahead show him Barry Sanders was

18:15

19:57

dangerous. Yeah. Yeah, I don't care about

19:59

the rowing or the boxing or I

20:01

don't know. I'll find out

20:03

when the gym that that's I think most people it's

20:06

the number one rated thing. No

20:08

anything to do with X Games I'm too old.

20:10

No I just look at you like you didn't

20:12

have parents at home who would drive you to

20:15

practice for a team so you had to learn.

20:17

No I said I know but

20:19

I look at my Zlachky kids like the ones who

20:21

ride the BMX because that

20:24

if your mom and dad weren't home you don't get to be on team

20:26

so they figured out how to do stuff on their own. I

20:29

do sound like my dad. You

20:31

know good luck to everyone. How about that? King

20:34

Jelly Roll appeared before

20:37

Congress. He's just a

20:39

wonderful human being and

20:41

he's proof. He said look I was part of the

20:43

problem. He was a drug dealer he was

20:46

all of it and he said but he

20:48

went to Congress to pass an anti-fentanyl bill.

20:50

Take it from Jelly Roll and former drug dealer turned

20:53

country music star. I wouldn't even call it country.

20:57

I'd call it clap. Country rap. Clap.

21:01

Clap. The

21:04

son of a sitter in need of favor singer appeared before

21:07

Congress. Tuesday I

21:09

know Thursday and delivered an

21:11

impassionate five-minute statement urging lawmakers

21:13

to pass an anti-fentanyl trafficking

21:15

bill. I don't really know what's in that

21:17

bill. Jelly Roll who's the real

21:20

name Jason Deford addresses Senate Committee on banking,

21:23

housing, and urban affairs channeling his own

21:26

experience with addiction. In these

21:28

five minutes I'll be seeking somebody in the United States

21:30

will die of a drug overdose. It's almost a 72%

21:32

chance that during those five minutes

21:34

it will be fentanyl related. Clearly

21:36

from the gas station on alcohol. I

21:40

mean I know it's a problem. I don't

21:42

know enough about drugs really to give me but

21:48

I'm glad he did this. Jelly

21:50

Roll does not have a political affiliation. He

21:53

told the audience including Sherrod Brown and Tim

21:55

Scott country needs to make the more steps

21:57

to care for people struggling with addiction and

21:59

prevent more fatal. We do need more addiction. We

22:01

used to have a lot of addiction centers. My

22:04

mom worked at one. That closed. A shit-ton closed.

22:06

So if you do have a personal problem, unless

22:08

you're filthy rich and you can do the $50,000

22:10

a week bullshit in Malibu, yeah,

22:14

they let them go out to lunch

22:16

and shit. I'm like, what? What kind

22:18

of... I've had enough relatives in addiction

22:21

places that that ain't going on, at least

22:23

in the Midwest. You're not going out for lunch and

22:25

buying more drugs and coming back here and getting a

22:27

massage. No. America

22:30

has been known to bully and shame drug addicts

22:32

instead of dealing and trying to understand what the actual root

22:34

of the problem is. Fentanyl

22:38

has caused more than 60% of all accidental

22:41

drug and overdoses. So

22:44

the bill, the passage of Fend-Off Fentanyl,

22:46

the bill introduced by Tim Scott, he's

22:48

a Republican from South Carolina, seeks to

22:51

respond to international fentanyl trafficking by imposing

22:53

sanctions and

22:55

anti-money laundering measures

22:57

in attempt to target China. And

23:00

Mexico's illicit fentanyl supply chain.

23:03

Yeah, you go. I know now people

23:05

go argue about this, but I'm just saying

23:07

what he did. Watching him and Bunny

23:09

walk in. Watching him and

23:11

Bunny and X-Tripp are just walk

23:14

right in. He's got face

23:16

tattoos. He's got tears of tattoos. He's

23:18

got a cross on his face. But

23:21

he is really cute. Like in

23:24

real life and stuff. He's

23:26

a handsome man. Yeah. So

23:31

we'll see if they pass it. I don't know.

23:33

There's not more in the article about what

23:36

he said. I believe

23:38

when I saw drugs, genuinely, that selling drugs

23:40

was a victimless crime. But he

23:42

said he now knows he was part of the problem.

23:44

I brought my community down. I heard people. I was

23:47

an uneducated man in the kitchen playing chemist with drugs.

23:49

I knew absolutely nothing. That's my old joke about the

23:51

math lab. Yeah, just like the drug dealers do right

23:53

now when they're mixing every drug on the market with

23:55

fentanyl and they're killing the people we love. Yeah, he's

23:58

right. I would never do a drug. It

24:02

involves rednecks and science. That's my

24:04

old joke about meth labs. I'm like, nope. You

24:06

know what's still sitting at the bar? Bud light,

24:08

Miller light, whatever you want. How about a nice

24:10

amber ale? I don't need any meth. Update.

24:15

I don't have many updates, so

24:17

enjoy the few we have. There

24:19

was a Banksy mural worth over $1.2

24:22

million, and it's

24:24

got the European, well, I'll explain it,

24:26

but it was of the European, the EU

24:29

logo with the stars on the blue, and

24:31

the stars are yellow. Yeah. Well,

24:34

they demolished the building. Oh,

24:37

I know. How do you

24:39

do this, guys? A mural

24:41

painted by Banksy, which first appeared not long after

24:43

Britain voted to leave the European

24:45

Union. So on the mural, he's got a guy

24:47

on a ladder taking a star off. That's

24:50

all painted on. Yeah. The

24:52

artworks that have been valued around it, 1.2 million

24:55

first appeared in the coastal town of Dover

24:57

in 2017, the year after Britain voted

25:00

to leave the union in

25:02

a controversial referendum. Something they

25:04

probably shouldn't have done. The

25:09

mural, which adorned the castle amusement

25:11

building depicted a worker chipping away at one of

25:13

the yellow stars on the blue EU flag. By

25:15

then in 2019, a mural, which would

25:17

become a tourist landmark in the town,

25:20

a major gateway into the EU, disappeared

25:22

overnight after being whitewashed. What

25:24

kind of asshole? Yeah. Despite

25:26

the attempts at potentially restoring the work on

25:29

the building, which was painted on, has been

25:31

demolished as part of a wider regeneration

25:33

project. They just said,

25:35

fuck it. We're not doing it. The

25:40

council didn't want to spend the money. That's too bad

25:42

because it was super cool looking. You

25:44

couldn't have just somehow cut

25:46

that part out. They

25:49

should have. Yeah. We

25:51

have the technology. Come on. That

25:54

was my only update. I only have one. Yeah.

25:57

Some weeks it just there's. I

26:00

have a lot of stuff. It's just that there weren't many

26:02

updates This

26:06

is a new friendly news funny news and

26:08

some just interesting holy shit they found it

26:18

She gets excited I think when she finds them and then

26:20

it does save me the work Yeah, I mean I know

26:22

where to look but sometimes I'm

26:24

busy out there on the road freezing my

26:26

ass off buying long underwear to wear On

26:28

stage and everybody I know I just I

26:30

can't get over those old theaters I know

26:33

it's probably hard to work on the HVAC

26:35

and dangerous too because everything's so old but

26:37

dear Lord Yeah,

26:43

well a huge ancient city

26:46

has been found in the Amazon hidden for

26:48

thousands of years by lust lush vegetation

26:50

discovery changes what we know about the

26:52

history of the people living in the

26:54

Amazon the houses and plazas in the

26:56

Up and oh area in Eastern Ecuador

26:59

were connected by an astounded an astounding

27:01

network of roads and canals Yeah,

27:04

we've just never gone deep enough. That's

27:06

another thing I would do for ransom if

27:08

I was the Ecuadorians I'd say do you want to see

27:11

your new city we found? Well, I have a

27:13

lighter and I'm gonna set this

27:15

whole bitch on fire unless somebody sends us seven

27:17

billion Yeah

27:22

pay off our debt as a nation, thank

27:24

you Oh

27:26

sure, you can all come down now and look at

27:28

the city We found the area lies in the shadow

27:30

of all of a volcano by the way My Iceland

27:33

volcano is erupting again and sadly

27:35

the lava has gone into the town of Grindevik

27:37

if I'm saying that right Yeah, three houses have

27:39

been right, but the people got evacuated again. They'd

27:41

already been gone for like a month and a

27:43

half They let them come home. They thought it

27:45

was good to go not gonna do and then

27:47

fissures started in Yeah,

27:50

there's a few tick tockers out there I've seen too

27:52

that it's just a matter of time till they turn until the lava

27:54

gets them Yep, that

27:56

last video is gonna be really viral because you're

27:58

just gonna see you turn into a stone.

28:03

Sometimes you just want to grab the children and go, you know,

28:06

yeah, this

28:08

comes come with me and we're gonna

28:10

watch a video about Pompeii before you

28:13

decide to keep walking over there with

28:15

your dumb ass iPhone. Anyway, well,

28:17

we knew about cities in the highlands of South America, much

28:19

like Machu Picchu in Peru, it is

28:21

believed that only people only live nomadically

28:24

in or in tiny settlements in the Amazon.

28:26

This is older than any site we know

28:28

in the Amazon. We have a Eurocentric view

28:30

of civilization, but this shows to change our

28:32

idea about what culture is

28:34

and civilization. It changes the

28:36

way we see Amazonian cultures. Most

28:39

people picture small groups, probably naked, living in

28:41

huts and clearing land. I

28:43

didn't picture them naked. They always had some on. I

28:45

don't know. Wow, he went

28:48

straight to full porn. This

28:50

shows ancient people lived in complicated urban

28:52

societies. The city was built around 2500

28:55

years ago. People lived there for up to 1000

28:57

years. It's difficult to

28:59

say how many people live there, but scientists

29:03

say it's certainly in the 10,000, if

29:06

not hundreds of thousands. That's

29:09

crazy. Well,

29:15

that's what they wrote. I

29:17

can't be responsible. This is a

29:19

hard article. This is a hard place. Is

29:22

Phoebe new science? They

29:27

had a central plaza, and then

29:29

they had units around that. They

29:32

had ceremonial buildings, roads. It's

29:34

amazing. I can't wait till

29:36

somebody sends a video out

29:38

of here. Let's see what's

29:40

really going on. Oh, they

29:43

drank their beer was called Chicha.

29:46

This is a sweet beer. Anyway,

29:50

holy shit, they found that. How great is that?

29:52

Let's wait for a special on that. Holy shit,

29:54

they found it. I have another one. This

29:57

one I found. This is

29:59

crazy. it's true. And

30:01

it sounds true. 10 foot

30:04

tall people, 10 foot,

30:07

they think of how we could change the

30:09

NBA and make it even better. We got

30:11

seven foot over seven footers out there now.

30:14

Some some jackass team shows up with a 10 footer.

30:16

10 foot tall people

30:20

discovered by archaeologists in Nevada cave,

30:23

mythology folklore and even the Bible tell us the

30:25

Giants once roamed the earth and as it turns

30:27

out, there's evidence to back up this claim. Extraordinary

30:30

human remains have been found in the US state

30:32

in the US state of Nevada, with

30:34

some of the skeletons measuring up to 10 feet tall

30:37

along their jaw dropping size, the bodies, some of

30:39

which were said to be mummified, were

30:41

found to have red hair. Wow,

30:47

what happened? Clearly, my family never got with

30:49

these people. This

30:51

is fueled the theory passed down to the ages

30:54

that a long forgotten race of humans once

30:56

dominated the South dominated Southwestern

30:58

America. According to the payute,

31:00

a tribe that settled on a

31:02

America tribe that settled in the Nevada region thousands

31:04

of years ago, cannibalistic red

31:07

hair giants called the

31:09

Sotukau came to the America. They

31:12

came from a distant island. They

31:16

soon made a name for themselves as

31:18

being taller, stronger and crueler than ordinary

31:20

men. Then in 1911, while

31:23

digging for a bat

31:25

guano, a key ingredient and fertilizer,

31:27

in a cave in the city

31:29

of Lovelock, Nevada, some miners unearthed a

31:32

number of strange objects. This

31:35

prompted the launch of two official official

31:37

evacuations 1912 and 1924, which thousands

31:41

of artifacts were recovered. Among

31:43

the staggering finds were the mummies, nicknamed

31:45

Lovelock giants, which measured between eight and

31:47

10 feet tall. They also found 15

31:50

inch long sandals that shows signs of

31:52

wear and a boulder etched with what

31:54

appears to be a giant handprint. Oh,

31:57

yeah, shortly after the

32:00

The second evacuation, no I

32:04

didn't say, not an excavation, in 1931, an article published

32:08

in the local newspaper in Nevada

32:10

claimed that the two giant skeletons had been

32:12

discovered by a dry lake bed close to

32:14

Lovelock. Those remains measured 8.5 to

32:17

10 feet high respectively and were mummified

32:19

in a matter similar to that employed

32:21

by ancient Egyptians. While all of this

32:24

may sound far-fetched, the legend of these

32:26

trained people crops up all over the

32:28

Americas. For example, a Spanish conquistador in

32:30

the 16th century called Pedro de Leon

32:32

recorded an ancient Peruvian tale about the

32:35

giant's origin. He said that

32:37

the tower figures came by sea in

32:39

rafts of reeds in manner of large boats and

32:41

some men were so tall that from the knee

32:44

down they were the height of a regular man.

32:46

Wow. Yep. The

32:48

Indians, all the Native Americans said it too. They

32:50

all say they were giant red-headed people. What

32:53

the hell happened to them? The

32:56

Cetica, that's what they were called. If

32:59

you're wondering how they

33:01

disappeared, the

33:03

Native Americans may have the answer. According to

33:05

the mythology, the Cetica waged

33:07

war on them and their neighboring tribes,

33:09

wrecking terror and destruction. After

33:11

years of fighting, the tribes united against this

33:13

formidable foe. Eventually

33:16

the last remaining giants were chased away and

33:19

sought shelter inside Lovelock caves, seizing their chance

33:21

the tribes started a fire at the cave

33:23

entrance, suffocating and burning them alive. Those who

33:25

were left. Think

33:29

about that next time you're in Nevada. Yeah,

33:32

look around the casino. See if you

33:34

see anybody. Speaking

33:36

of out west, just letting you all know

33:38

if you live in Arizona, a wild jaguar

33:43

jaguar is what we would say in the Midwest was

33:47

spotted on camera

33:49

in Arizona. So if you're

33:51

out golfing and you want to go look for your

33:54

ball, just remember you get a little too far off.

33:56

There's the jaguar. Uh huh. Officials

34:00

in southern Arizona confirmed the recent sighting

34:03

captured on a trail came in December and heat this

34:05

thing is Southern

34:09

Arizona That's

34:11

all they say they probably won't say

34:14

exactly where cuz some jackass will go try to hunt it

34:16

But maybe I don't know is it supposed to be there Oh,

34:20

well, I'm gonna tell you where it's in Hawke

34:23

Chew mountains Yep, the

34:25

Federal Run trail came captured the elusive

34:27

creature while the images are not

34:29

yet To be

34:31

publicly released. Well, it is it's in this article

34:34

a conservation advocate Said the

34:36

Southwest had viewed them the significance in the sighting

34:38

lies and the contribution to check where our conservation

34:40

efforts So they're trying to you know Whether

34:43

this latest one is the same one photograph

34:45

last year remains uncertain All

34:48

of them in the Southwest have been males the gender

34:50

is Of this one

34:52

is newly the newly sighted one is

34:54

yet unknown laying another layer of curiosity.

34:56

Just be careful I

34:58

don't go look for a ball in Arizona if I golf. No

35:01

rattlesnake scorpions tarantulas

35:04

javelinas Jaguars

35:10

Very most your ball costs was three dollars

35:12

mine aren't that expensive mine are more like

35:14

a dollar Do you

35:16

want to encounter just a rattlesnake for

35:19

one dollar? No, just let

35:21

it go. Let's let it go The

35:24

sphere in Las Vegas So

35:29

you two is gonna phase out I saw they're gonna

35:31

stop I know you don't like I would go to

35:33

you too, but we I think I may have talked

35:35

about this on here My friend

35:37

Dorf went like if I was

35:39

gonna go to the sphere it wouldn't I can't

35:42

go It's the it's the round ball in Vegas

35:44

venue if you don't know I've talked about they were gonna build

35:46

one in London And now it's a political football now.

35:48

It's not happening. It's so sad London. You're not

35:50

getting one as of now. They've canceled it Well,

35:56

no, it's some political thing

35:59

they One party says yes, the other one

36:01

says no. Anyway, you two,

36:04

like I might've gone, they're fine. I don't

36:06

love you two. Like I wouldn't buy a

36:08

ticket if I got a ticket and I had

36:10

nothing else to do. I might probably

36:12

go. But somebody put on

36:14

Instagram or something the moment we all realize

36:16

none of us really liked you two that much.

36:21

But so I don't wanna go see

36:23

like somebody I love at

36:25

the sphere, cause there's too many distractions. Like my

36:27

friend Dorf likes to go to Deadhead, and

36:30

fish things, that would be awesome cause you're not really focused

36:32

on the musicians. I don't wanna see Stevie there. Cause

36:35

they also look like ants. They don't, no,

36:38

I want Stevie, like just

36:40

Stevie. But in front of

36:42

me playing in a band, like the way that, you

36:44

know, I don't know. But

36:46

this idea, I would

36:49

so buy a ticket. Miley

36:52

Cyrus reconsiders residency at the

36:54

sphere after MSG

36:56

doubles back with big money offer.

37:00

Cause she won't tour. She has said a

37:02

million times she's never touring again. She doesn't like the road.

37:04

She doesn't like the buses. I get

37:06

it. Especially with music.

37:08

There's so many people involved. Comedy,

37:11

I mean, I walk and knock on the back door

37:13

and I have a purse with bar napkins with notes

37:15

on it. Just let me in. Me

37:18

and here's Michael. Yeah, let us in. Do you

37:20

have beer? Thank you, let us in. Do you

37:22

have a space heater? Thank you. Let's

37:24

do sound check. It'll take less than four minutes,

37:26

I swear. If you're good at it, it'll only

37:29

take one minute and then we're done. So

37:31

we are so low maintenance that I could see being

37:33

in a Miley Cyrus thing, like, there's just so much going

37:35

on. I get why she don't want to do the road.

37:38

But a residency might be a different

37:40

story, especially quote, if the money is there,

37:42

that might be the issue. They've

37:44

backed themselves into a corner by paying you

37:47

to a small fortune to open the venue.

37:50

Yeah, I don't know. Like Dorf just wanted to see,

37:52

I go, would you go to you too anyway? But

37:54

he goes everything. I can't use him. They

37:57

reportedly received about 10 million for their

37:59

multimount. month residency. Miley's

38:03

asking for the equivalent or more.

38:05

She should ask you

38:07

can only ask. She

38:12

could make her anxiously awaited debut to the stage as

38:14

soon as 2024. After the Cyrus camp recently

38:18

restarted talks about it. They're

38:20

not they're not saying yes, but that's a good

38:22

idea because I really like her music. A

38:25

lot of the songs I really like but I also

38:27

don't care if I'm really looking at her. Yeah,

38:30

I don't care. Um.

38:33

The initial offer was

38:35

too low. She said nay nay. Who

38:38

I mean, other possible successors. Here

38:40

we go. Beyonce.

38:44

Maybe. Yeah. Harry

38:46

Styles. I don't know enough about

38:48

him. The children.

38:50

The children love

38:53

Harry. Was he in a boy

38:55

band? He was in one

38:58

direct. I don't know any of those boys bands.

39:00

He's Stevie's favorite. I

39:02

know Stevie likes him a lot. Sometimes

39:04

I'm bothered by his outfits as a good

39:07

as a good old person should be. Okay,

39:09

Jack. I know. I sound like my

39:12

dad. Um Lady Gaga. Okay.

39:15

Okay. Dead in

39:17

company. Perfect. Perfect. And

39:20

Bon Jovi. Oh god. I

39:23

think everybody can agree though

39:25

that Bon Jovi's fun. Oh

39:27

yeah. Would I go on purpose? I

39:30

did. You did. Oh god. Bon Jovi

39:32

Def Leppard. Bon

39:34

Jovi Def Leppard. I was in high school. It

39:36

was amazing. I know. I think John Bon Jovi

39:39

is adorable but sometimes the lyrics are

39:41

so dumb. My brain wants to explode

39:43

in the car. I usually say some

39:45

of the country music lyrics are

39:47

the dumbest I've ever heard. Bon Jovi.

39:50

Living on a prayer. We're halfway there living

39:52

on a prayer. Oh, I'm halfway. It

39:55

just, I don't know but the songs are fun. Fish

39:58

will be there for four nights in April. So,

40:00

um, so if you're looking for my

40:02

friend Dorf, that's exactly, he probably won't even leave

40:04

this year. He'll just stay there all day and night,

40:07

find himself huddled in a bathroom

40:09

corner somewhere. Get up Dorf. They're

40:11

playing again. Um,

40:15

Utah. This

40:17

is so great. Now

40:20

I can't wait to go to Utah, but I don't know where

40:22

the city is in Utah. The

40:25

debt, see the adorable and

40:27

deadly black footed cat at a

40:29

Utah zoo. This cat

40:31

is the cutest thing I've ever seen. Cuter

40:35

than baby cat. It's

40:37

yep. It's the smallest thing. And

40:40

they say it's the world's most deadliest cat because

40:42

it has a 60% kill rate. Six

40:46

out of 10 things it attempts to kill, it will kill.

40:50

Baby cat has a 1% kill rate. Uh,

40:54

Chappell, I'd say has a 70% kill rate. No,

40:57

he can't be higher than this guy. So I'd say 40? Kato.

41:02

Kato kills a lot. They're

41:07

both sociopaths. Baby cat's the only

41:09

one that's civilized and refined. Food will

41:12

come out of the container when my

41:14

butler arrives. There's no reason to be

41:16

running around the yard trying to chase

41:18

a bunny. This

41:21

thing is eight month old Gaia as part of a

41:23

breeding program for her vulnerable

41:26

species. She's considered to be the

41:28

world's deadliest cat. Wait, cat, wait till you see

41:30

her picture if you go to the shadows or

41:32

just black footed cat. She

41:34

looks like a little tabby cat. She just got spots

41:37

and stripes. Giant eyes though. It's

41:39

so cute. Big

41:42

cats like tigers and lions have earned a

41:44

reputation for being some of the fiercest predators

41:46

on the planet. But bigger doesn't always mean

41:48

better in the end of kingdom. This is Gaia,

41:50

the eight month old black footed cat who recently

41:52

arrived at Utah's Hogle Zoo. Although

41:57

she may look cute, she's a top notch hunter in

41:59

the wild. They successfully successfully catch their

42:01

prey 60% of the time earning them

42:03

the title of world deadliest cat It's

42:06

in Salt Lake. Yeah. Oh great. Okay. Yeah, I

42:09

think I probably have a gig there coming up

42:11

sometime in 2024 That's not been announced

42:14

the animals eat between 8 and 14 meals

42:17

every evening and Just one

42:19

of the felines can devour up to

42:21

3,000 rodents a year for comparison

42:23

Big cats have a hunting success rate of around

42:26

25% Oh my god, but

42:28

they're in trouble and that's where Gaia comes in

42:30

She's part of a North America breeding program organized

42:32

by zoos and aquariums that helps to

42:34

aim get the numbers cats Cat

42:37

numbers rebounded they brought her

42:39

because they hope she'll mate with a three-year-old male

42:41

at the facility named rider We laugh

42:44

and joke about being an endangered species. Um,

42:46

bum bum. They're trying to fix it They're

42:49

typical than a smaller house cat weighing between two

42:51

and six pounds. Even so there's some of the

42:53

most Exacting killers on the planet

42:55

they hunt at night using their stellar vision

42:58

and quickly speed to bounce Pounce

43:00

on birds reptiles insects and rodents in

43:02

captivity. She's eating special food made of

43:04

organ skeletal muscle and ground bone Plus

43:07

a hue a few humanely

43:09

and euthanized mice. That's

43:11

probably a big treat. It's just the cutest

43:14

thing. It almost looks like a gizmo

43:16

the gremlin It

43:20

doesn't say they're from Africa That's

43:22

where they normally live. Oh So

43:25

if you're in Utah, you want to see it the

43:28

deadliest cat get on down there Just

43:33

being picky oh my god This

43:39

Happened a while ago, but the report has just

43:41

come out This is

43:44

Elon I feel like Elon's out

43:47

of control Yeah, and

43:50

Twitter, you know, I

43:52

used to get the normal amount of followers and now

43:54

they just get taken away I don't I just

43:56

don't let it dissolve. I guess I don't because

44:00

I say that no, no, everything

44:02

I put on Twitter is usually fun. It's

44:05

not I don't get serious. Don't get

44:07

political. He is just letting

44:09

it die. So I mean, I'll

44:12

stay and just let it I'll watch it

44:14

dissolve. But it's not. Anyway,

44:16

in the spirit of him

44:18

being a crazy person, which

44:21

I think he is a Tesla

44:24

robot attacks an engineer at

44:27

the company's Texas factory during violent

44:29

malfunction, leaving a trail of blood

44:31

and forcing workers to hit emergency

44:34

shutdown button. The

44:38

fucking robots are

44:40

attacking. Yeah,

44:43

this was a

44:45

Tesla engineer was attacked by a robot

44:48

during a brutal and bloodly malfunction at

44:50

the company's Giga

44:53

Texas factory near Austin. Two

44:56

witnesses watched in horror as their

44:58

fellow employee was attacked by the

45:00

machine designed to grab and freshly

45:02

cast aluminum car parts. Imagine

45:05

this big silver thing coming over

45:07

to you going back. The robot

45:09

had pinned the man who was

45:12

then programming software for two disabled

45:14

Tesla robots nearby before sinking its

45:16

metal claws into the workers arm,

45:18

leading a trail of blood along

45:21

the factory surface. The incident, which

45:24

left the victim with an open wound on his left hand

45:27

was revealed in a 2021 injury report

45:30

filed to Travis County and federal regulators, which

45:33

had been reviewed. While no other robot

45:35

injuries were reported in 2021 or 22,

45:37

the Indian the incident

45:40

comes mid years of heightened concerns over the

45:42

risk of automated robots in the workplace. Man,

45:46

if I saw now that you know they can do this, if I saw

45:48

one even heading my way, I'd run this bathroom

45:50

and lock myself in. Yeah. Reports

45:54

of increased injury due to robotic

45:56

coworkers at an Amazon ship at

45:58

Amazon shipment centers. failure, droids, surgeons,

46:01

self-driving cars, and even violence from

46:03

robotic chess instructors have led some

46:05

to question the speedy integration

46:08

of the new tech. The

46:11

injury report, they said that the guy didn't

46:13

even need time off work. Oh, I'd need

46:15

a day. Yeah.

46:18

Yeah. There

46:21

was a number of injuries suffered at the factory,

46:23

but they're going unreported. Yeah, because you know he'll

46:25

fire you. Even though he can't,

46:27

because my dad was at work, was a comp lawyer,

46:29

he can't. I mean, he can,

46:31

but you can then sue him back. We gave him

46:33

a $10,000 bonus, and he didn't need a

46:36

day off.

46:41

This under-reporting, this lawyer said, even

46:43

included the September 28, 2021 death of a construction

46:46

worker who had been contracted to help

46:48

build the factory itself. My

46:50

advice would be to read that

46:53

report of the grain of salt, the lawyer said. We've

46:55

had multiple workers who were injured, and one worker who died

46:57

whose injuries or death are not reported in

47:00

these reports that Tesla is supposed to

47:03

be accurately completing and submitting to the

47:05

county in order to get tax incentives. Oh,

47:07

I don't trust him. No, he's

47:10

not going to. Well,

47:14

keep going on. But I mean, just this is

47:16

all lawyer stuff after that, but

47:20

just heads up if you're working at one of

47:22

those places. If that thing starts coming over like

47:24

he's your friend, he's not your friend. No, he's

47:27

been programmed to do something to something that's not

47:29

alive, and he's going to do it to your

47:31

ass. Jesus. This

47:33

is where the, you know, he would not think twice

47:36

about that. I don't think, I don't think he, uh,

47:38

what's his face would care. He

47:40

would just be like, well, okay, we have

47:42

a little restaurant news. Yeah,

47:44

it's quite, it's quite a little segment. So

47:48

who still knows where a Friday's is? Oh,

47:52

no, they did a whole Jack

47:54

Daniel thing. Remember Jack Daniels. Jack Daniels

47:57

ribs and Jack. Jack Daniels ribs. Yeah.

48:00

Well, here's the thing. When

48:02

I was like in high school and college, we

48:04

all loved it. Their potato skins

48:06

were the best. Their

48:08

bar was fun. Their nachos were good.

48:12

I didn't really eat real food there. I

48:14

think because we always got there late because I

48:16

got a fork bartending. Yes, they do have chicken

48:18

sandwiches, hamburgers, ribs. I

48:20

just ate all that stuff. I

48:22

have touched. But I haven't

48:24

seen a Friday's. So last year at some point,

48:27

I did a gig in Niagara Falls on the

48:29

Canadian side, and there was a Friday's. And I

48:31

remember going, holy shit, there's a Friday's. I didn't

48:33

know. Canada,

48:36

I know. You guys still

48:38

don't know who shot JR on Dallas. You

48:40

don't know what happened at the end of

48:42

Sopranos. What happens to Tony?

48:46

Nobody cares. We're all gonna do this together.

48:48

Oh, Canada. We

48:51

stand on guard for the.

48:53

Wonderful handsome. This is

48:55

shocking. There's still a ton of Fridays left.

48:57

I don't know where they're hiding them because

48:59

nobody's on the road as much as me outside of a

49:01

trucker. TGI Abruptly, TGI Fridays

49:04

Abruptly closes 36 underperforming

49:06

restaurants, sells eight more to

49:09

former CEO. Now I did

49:11

go to one. It

49:14

was somewhere in the Midwest. Maybe

49:17

Iowa. I can't remember. I

49:21

don't know. And it was bad. Like

49:24

there were no employees, but

49:26

it was also just that after COVID. So I can't,

49:28

you know, everything was weird then. I mean, lack of

49:31

employees and so on and so forth. But I was

49:33

like, oh man. And they had done nothing new. Menu

49:35

was the same. Sign was the same.

49:39

Casual Dining, TGI Fridays

49:41

Abruptly announces

49:43

closing 36 underperforming

49:46

restaurants. I would imagine there's a lot more

49:48

than that that are underperforming. Photos

49:50

on social media showed some

49:52

of the locations had posted a notice on the

49:54

door that read, we regret

49:57

to inform you that Fridays has made the difficult decision

49:59

to close our doors. effective, I

50:01

think it would have been effective Friday. No,

50:03

it was effective

50:07

January 2nd. As part of the

50:09

closures, TGI Fridays is offering more

50:11

than a thousand transfer opportunities which

50:13

represents over 80% of impacted employees.

50:17

Oh, it's a Dallas-based company. They

50:19

revealed the surprise closures Wednesday. It

50:21

also said previously corporate-owned restaurants in

50:23

the Northeast will be sold

50:25

to former CEO Ray Blanchett. He

50:29

served as the chief, the

50:31

CEO for Fridays for five years. He resigned

50:33

in May as a restaurant chain creator

50:36

of the popular loaded skin potatoes. Yeah,

50:38

that was great. Their potatoes were great.

50:40

Their salads were good too. They had

50:42

good ranch. They're gonna go

50:45

through a new phase of revitalization. Boy, I

50:47

don't know where he's start. I

50:49

don't know. He's got,

50:51

he's then they say we're the ones, he's got,

50:53

they've yet to reveal a definitive list of which

50:55

outposts in the states have closed. The company

50:58

is owned by a private equity

51:00

firm. Tri-Artesian Capital Investors and its

51:02

financial results aren't released. The website

51:04

there says there are more than 850

51:07

Fridays in 55

51:09

countries. Look at us

51:11

spreading potato skins all over the world, making

51:13

the world fat. 275 are located

51:16

in the United States. termites, you have

51:19

a Friday by you? Where do you live? Send an

51:21

email to the team email I like to know. Um,

51:26

I spoke to them for Friday's decline to comment

51:28

beyond what was stated in the press release by

51:30

strengthening our franchise model and closing underperforming stores.

51:32

We are creating an un you know closing

51:34

the underperforming ones, I guess fine. They're

51:37

not, they're not making money. Fuck it. But

51:39

that's not really gonna, that's not that money

51:41

that you're gonna save from those six is

51:43

not gonna help the 269 that are

51:46

left. That is not the answer. Our

51:49

top priorities always for delivering a suspicious,

51:51

superior experience in each and every TGI

51:53

Friday's guest. And we've identified opportunities

51:55

to optimize and streamline our operations to

51:57

we to ensure we are best physician.

52:00

to meet and exceed on

52:02

that brand promise. I

52:05

don't know, can't it be saved? What do we

52:07

think, Terrence? I

52:10

don't know, it would take a lot of money, and

52:13

a lot of, I mean advertising, and you're

52:15

gonna have to think of new shit. Or

52:17

go old school and go member our petate skins.

52:19

We haven't been seeing you in a while, and

52:22

then they could specifically go cat-blade. If

52:24

you promise them to be like they used to be, I'll

52:27

be there, but in a second. They

52:30

were huge. Yeah, you only needed one or two. And

52:32

then you were full, it was great. Taco

52:35

Bell, moving on, a lot

52:38

of restaurant names. They, Taco

52:40

Bell unveils a new

52:43

value menu with shockingly low

52:45

prices. All of this reminds me

52:47

of my nephew Xavier. I could just see Xavier

52:49

just going, because he's in his 20s,

52:51

and they eat whatever they want, and

52:53

massive amounts of, it just, they

52:55

have 10 items worth $3 or less.

52:58

I mean, is that even food anymore? No.

53:02

I think gum's a dollar. Might

53:06

be more, grandma hasn't bought gum in

53:08

a long time here, because grandma has

53:10

spent bazillions of dollars on implants and

53:12

crowns, and gum ain't worth pulling crowns

53:15

off, nope. Taco Bell will

53:17

launch, it's updated a value

53:20

menu with 10 items less than $3. The

53:22

new cravings menu is available at 7,800 outlets. On

53:26

Friday, it features six new meat

53:28

ditches and four existing vegetarian items.

53:31

The vegetarian items include, well, I have an

53:33

old joke in one of my specials about,

53:35

they should, every year, they should receive Restaurant

53:38

of the Year award, because they only have four ingredients,

53:40

and they keep coming up with new things. They just

53:42

put them in different things. It's in a tortilla,

53:44

now, oh, look, now it's on chips. Okay,

53:47

it's, we're gonna make it

53:49

chicken. Their vegan items include

53:51

the cheesy roll-up, the spicy soft potato

53:54

soft taco, just potatoes and

53:56

a taco, cheesy bean and rasburrito, and

53:58

cheesy fiesta potatoes. Um,

54:03

they have adult, these are the meat ones, some of the

54:05

meat ones, double stack taco,

54:08

the stacker cheesy double beef burrito. They're

54:10

just throwing more shit in there, but they're charging

54:12

less. I mean, I don't,

54:15

this is all about getting people in and

54:17

they do it and they're fast. Their drive-thru

54:19

is. Um,

54:24

yeah, you can go look what

54:26

else? Yeah, I'm not going to go

54:28

through this whole menu. It's ridiculous. I

54:31

mean, $1.99 double stack taco

54:34

to two 19 stacker cheesy

54:36

beef flavor stack together. You get it. You

54:39

get the idea. It's just shit coming out of our window, but

54:41

it's good. Last

54:43

restaurant news. This one, I don't know why this

54:45

makes me laugh so hard. Well,

54:47

because I've experienced it with my younger

54:50

brother and sister for their birthdays. Um,

54:54

major US food chain may see a resurgence

54:57

after it almost went bankrupt in 2020. Chuck

55:00

E. Cheese was the only place for kids

55:03

in the nineties and early two thousands to

55:05

have their birthday party, meaning millennials and Gen

55:07

Zers have fond memories of the pizza tape.

55:10

So my youngest brother and sister has had an 11

55:12

years younger than me at their birthday parties and

55:14

then their friend's birthday parties. If

55:17

you could get a Chuck E. Cheese, it was available.

55:19

It was just, it's like a casino

55:21

for kids. It's like crack that you could

55:23

always spare it out the attic kids. Cause

55:25

they'd be like, I don't have any tickets.

55:28

Give me somebody. Cause the tickets would

55:30

come. They had a live band. The

55:33

live band was just phenomenal. But I always

55:35

used to think those are real musicians in

55:38

those outfits. How has it come to

55:40

this? Like if you could play the drums, how did you

55:42

end up in a mouse outfit? It's whatever. I

55:44

don't remember. Um, it

55:47

was fun though. And they had beer. I remember

55:49

that. I don't remember if they had wine. I

55:51

remember drinking beer. Still

55:54

slowed in the early two tens. The

55:56

animatronic robot and his band appealing less

55:58

to children. I'm a track. I

56:00

thought there were people then the

56:03

COVID the COVID lockdowns forced it into

56:05

bankruptcy in 2020 it emerged from bankruptcy

56:07

You know though many sites they shut

56:09

it is fully and quietly but attracting

56:11

new customers and getting all ones back

56:13

Good for the tiny tiny children your

56:15

birthday party is back on it. Chuck

56:18

you cheese the pizza though was awful

56:21

Like as an adult you got a pre-eat before you

56:23

go there. Don't count on the food, but the

56:25

experience was hilarious um Reuters

56:28

is saying it's working with investment bag oldman

56:31

stacks after the sacks after the companies showed

56:33

interest in buying it and returning it To

56:35

its former glory. It's right. It

56:37

is tipped to be worth 1 billion Chucky

56:41

cheese Mm-hmm

56:46

An auction is expected to attract interest from

56:49

private equity firms and companies like Dave and

56:51

busters who operate similar

56:53

businesses Dave and busters I

56:55

didn't think it would make it and they keep opening new ones

57:00

I've gone to some stuff there. It's fine. I would

57:03

I think of going it on you know no,

57:05

but I don't like it Real

57:10

game well, I like Papa shot. That's the only

57:12

thing I like oh the sports is on Well,

57:15

that's fine Could this mean

57:17

a reform a return to Chuck E. Cheese's glory

57:20

days well part of

57:22

the modernization? Yes,

57:24

Chuck E. Cheese has glory days. Oh my

57:26

god Patrick my brother

57:28

he must have attended 50 birthday parties at Chuck

57:30

E. Cheese's in his high day Yeah

57:34

Part of the validation is they getting rid of

57:36

the famous Chuck in his band and replacing them

57:38

with video screens of the characters and a dance

57:40

floor oh Grandma

57:44

doesn't want to get rid of the band

57:47

a dance floor Chuck

57:49

E. Cheese was mostly for littler

57:51

kids not like teenagers that wanted

57:53

dance my

57:56

niece's dance, but Yeah,

57:59

they did I can't even argue that.

58:02

But might want the I would they went to real

59:39

Sea Cruz. First of all, I'm never going

59:41

in the North Sea. Period.

59:43

The videos on instagram of the North Sea

59:45

and tic tac of boats in the North

59:48

Sea. It's the most terrifying should have of

59:50

this has british tourist onboard. Ah

59:52

was struck by a roadway rogue wave. Their videos

59:54

all Birds attack on Put that in there. you'll

59:57

see. Sending. people sliding around the

59:59

floor knocking up and forcing it to be

1:00:01

towed to Germany. Oh my god. Yeah.

1:00:05

It was a ferocious storm in the North Sea. First

1:00:09

of all, the guts you have

1:00:11

to have to get in the wintertime on

1:00:14

a tourist cruise ship to get

1:00:16

in the North Sea in the winter.

1:00:19

Why do they have that? Because they're,

1:00:21

well the other one's going to Antarctica. This one,

1:00:23

they're going to see the northern lights. You

1:00:26

can fly. Fly to Canada. Yeah. Get

1:00:29

out of an airplane. My sister

1:00:31

sees them every day. Yeah. Paddle

1:00:34

sister sees them every day. Yep. Outside

1:00:36

of Calgary. The luxury

1:00:38

cruise ship, which is carrying 400 passengers and

1:00:40

a crew, had started a 14-day northern

1:00:43

lights expedition sailing from Tilbury

1:00:45

on December 9th. It was due

1:00:47

to return to the Essex port on December

1:00:50

23rd. Dramatic footage.

1:00:54

They have footage of this rogue wave. The

1:00:56

TV screen went black. The ship's

1:00:58

horn distress signal sounded. Oh god.

1:01:01

Oh my god. They

1:01:04

expected it to be a rough

1:01:06

ride going over several other big

1:01:08

waves. However, this one, everything became

1:01:10

undone. Tables, chairs. They said there

1:01:12

were no serious injuries except the people like me

1:01:14

that probably would have had a heart attack. Exactly.

1:01:19

And then it's just other people's videos.

1:01:23

And then this one, these people, terrifying

1:01:26

footage shows 95-foot waves crashing

1:01:29

over luxury Atlas World Voyager

1:01:31

cruise ship as it makes

1:01:33

its way through ferocious storm with 115 mile an hour winds

1:01:35

off of Antarctica. Oh

1:01:38

my god. 95-foot

1:01:40

waves. What? I

1:01:43

don't understand. Terrifying footage has emerged from

1:01:45

the luxury cruise liner. I don't need to

1:01:47

go to Antarctica. Go to IMAX. There's a

1:01:49

lovely movie about Antarctica. You can watch a

1:01:52

penguin. Watch a penguin. You can watch all

1:01:54

kinds of things. There's just, this

1:01:56

is crazy. They went through the Drake

1:01:59

Passage or movies. About people dying in

1:02:01

the Drake Passage. I mean I give these

1:02:03

evil credit for trying of this is your

1:02:05

lifelong go on to say is nothing I

1:02:07

could every. right?

1:02:10

Well you know I going see the northern

1:02:12

eaten Is he the northern lights in the

1:02:14

summer? not only the winter but oh then

1:02:16

I gotta go now. Pair of. His

1:02:19

fly somewhere. And get out. Rent a car like a

1:02:21

civilized. And the cruise ship

1:02:23

was shroud traversing the Drake Passage,

1:02:25

the spot in which the Atlantic

1:02:27

and Pacific. Oceans converge

1:02:29

between the southernmost tip the South America.

1:02:32

America and when of Antarctica would I was caught

1:02:34

and upon it did and a punishing the best.

1:02:37

1:02:46

The perilous journey on this is in December

1:02:50

Chairs Everything was floating around. There's.

1:02:53

Water all over the place of

1:02:57

To navigate it. Ah, and

1:02:59

they reached it's destination. Ushuaia

1:03:02

and then in Southern Argentina

1:03:04

without. Suffering major damage? I

1:03:06

mean, You

1:03:08

don't know that they're going to be able to

1:03:11

navigate. You could all just like a shipping container,

1:03:13

shipping date, or things that get caught and he

1:03:15

any and ocean and then you flip and you're

1:03:17

1:03:36

ninety five foot high. Yeah,

1:03:38

I can't. That's geometry I can do that

1:03:40

by, I'm sure that was terrifying. Armor.

1:03:45

As you say and says not my thing

1:03:47

got lover, but he hit not a crucial

1:03:50

those people that went to Canada and so

1:03:52

the Bahamas, I mean. Know

1:03:54

the answers, Know I'm.

1:03:58

Okay, this. I'm

1:04:00

gonna say it. I'm gonna say I want to. Hey,

1:04:03

Warren Buffett. Me and

1:04:05

Warren would not get along that well. I can

1:04:07

tell you that. This was

1:04:09

the cutest thing I'd ever seen. And you... You

1:04:11

got a new Warren. What? You got a new Warren. I

1:04:14

got a new what? You have a new Warren? I'm gonna

1:04:16

do Warren. Okay, good. But this was

1:04:19

the cutest thing I've ever seen. So

1:04:22

this teacher in Texas, she

1:04:25

gifted... She decided that

1:04:27

for her first grade class, she

1:04:29

was gonna take everybody on a Southwest Airlines

1:04:31

flight to Mexico. But

1:04:34

they're not really going. No. Well,

1:04:36

she can't take everyone's children. I was gonna say

1:04:38

no. No. So she made

1:04:40

the whole classroom. She rearranged the chairs like

1:04:42

a Southwest flight. But first she

1:04:44

made them come through TSA. She set all this

1:04:46

up on her own, like a real experience. They

1:04:48

had to have passports, but they're fake

1:04:50

ones. But they made their own passports. They took

1:04:53

pictures of themselves. They cut them out. Like just

1:04:55

so wonderful. Okay, this is gonna be busy work,

1:04:57

but it's fun. But it also teaches them how

1:04:59

you fly. So they understand. And

1:05:01

then she even passed out snacks like a flight

1:05:03

attendant. Each row on

1:05:06

the plane. And then she had a video of

1:05:08

a plane taken off and she's like, here we

1:05:10

go. This... It was the craziest thing. And

1:05:14

then the company Southwest, who... Yeah, sometimes I should talk

1:05:16

them. But they always get where you want to go

1:05:18

and my bags have never been lost. So I'll give

1:05:20

them their kudos. No. Sadly,

1:05:23

I've fallen back and forth to

1:05:25

see my parents so many times. I made a

1:05:27

list. And I think you're supposed to get excited

1:05:29

about that. I was like, it's

1:05:32

fine. Southwest is fine. But they're not... The

1:05:34

employees all seem very happy. I like that.

1:05:36

So they must like their job. Southwest,

1:05:40

they also gifted all of the first

1:05:42

grade teachers and the school principals round

1:05:44

trip tickets to anywhere the airline flies

1:05:46

to. So this is... That's

1:05:49

awesome. Yeah, she did

1:05:51

a video on TikTok. The

1:05:53

video was posted by Sonya White, an elementary teacher

1:05:56

in the Dallas area, her meticulously

1:05:58

preparing for a fun life. She took... pictures of

1:06:00

each one for their passport. They had

1:06:02

the boarding passes that she

1:06:04

did the safety instructions. And

1:06:07

then she played YouTube videos to make them

1:06:09

feel like they were flying out and then

1:06:11

passed out in flight snacks. They landed quote

1:06:13

in Mexico, they went through customs, they exchanged

1:06:15

their money. She taught them how to exchange

1:06:17

money. They ate

1:06:19

at a restaurant set up in the

1:06:22

classroom, which included an authentic dishes of

1:06:24

Mexican food, but provided by some of

1:06:26

the students' parents. It

1:06:28

got millions of views on TikTok, but

1:06:30

she said, we don't have a lot of money, so they have to

1:06:32

make up stuff to do. And I'm

1:06:34

like, that's a lady who really likes the kids. This

1:06:37

lady should get like teacher of the year. The

1:06:42

students were greeted by Southwest employees in their

1:06:44

headquarter building. They got to go to headquarters

1:06:46

after this video went viral. Yeah.

1:06:53

How cool. Yeah, that was great. So

1:06:56

go on TikTok, you can see the video, it's very funny. Yeah,

1:06:59

it was great. Okay,

1:07:01

Warren Buffett. And then

1:07:03

I have a super feel good story. Yeah.

1:07:06

I like that one. Well, first

1:07:08

we do Papa Warren. Now,

1:07:13

nobody's mentioning that clearly

1:07:15

Warren is on

1:07:17

a spectrum and my nephew's autistic, so

1:07:20

I speak with a

1:07:22

lot of knowledge about all this stuff. Nothing negative

1:07:25

about that when you learn how

1:07:27

to work with it at all, but that doesn't

1:07:30

mean Warren's ways are gonna fit everyone who's

1:07:32

not on a spectrum. Now I've decided he's on

1:07:34

a spectrum. I don't know

1:07:36

that he's ever said that, but his

1:07:39

routines are very spectrum-y.

1:07:43

Maybe he's just tight with a buck though. I

1:07:45

don't know, could be one or the other. Sometimes

1:07:48

there's no diagnosis for whatever is going on.

1:07:53

These are things that he says that

1:07:56

we waste our money on, meaning middle-class people,

1:07:59

and we could learn. from him. Consider

1:08:03

these 11 things. And he

1:08:06

suggested that poor people and

1:08:08

middle class people will waste money on. You

1:08:10

can avoid these financial pitfalls and set yourself up for

1:08:12

a wealthier 2024. Number one,

1:08:15

your home. The

1:08:17

cost of living does not equate to the

1:08:19

standard of living. I wouldn't live better if

1:08:21

I had eight houses. If I had a 400

1:08:23

foot yacht. He bought his

1:08:25

house in Omaha 55 years ago for $31,500. And

1:08:27

yet despite his earnings, he

1:08:32

hasn't seen a reason to move. It's warm

1:08:34

in the winter, meaning the house is cool in the summer.

1:08:36

I have everything I want. Plus, it has all kinds of

1:08:38

good memories. Okay, Grandpa,

1:08:41

you know, so people, it's not

1:08:44

that I need it. Maybe I just want a different house.

1:08:46

Maybe I'm tired of this house. Maybe maybe the

1:08:48

memories are good in this house. He could have

1:08:52

been purchased much. I've

1:08:55

seen it. You can go to the house in Omaha,

1:08:57

drove right up. It's on my Instagram somewhere. It's

1:08:59

not, there's better houses in that neighborhood. I

1:09:01

can tell you that it's a fan. It's

1:09:03

a good neighborhood. Like there's a lot of

1:09:05

old really Tudor looking. It's a cool neighborhood,

1:09:07

but it's very normal. Anybody

1:09:10

can drive right up to his house. And

1:09:12

didn't like it's very dark. I'm

1:09:14

like somebody looks sad in there.

1:09:17

I don't know. And just because

1:09:19

you bought a house 55 years ago. All right.

1:09:22

I know what he's saying. You don't need to buy. I do

1:09:24

have friends that buy houses that are way too large for what

1:09:26

they need. I get that. That is kind of a quote

1:09:28

waste of money, but new

1:09:31

cars. Okay. I'm with Warren on this.

1:09:33

I have a 2007 Mercury Mariner and I'm

1:09:35

not giving it up, but it's only because I'm in love with it.

1:09:38

I would go get a new car. And if I was going

1:09:40

to buy a different car, I would buy a new car because

1:09:42

I don't know enough about used cars to trust to know

1:09:45

what I'm buying. I would just go in and

1:09:47

say, here, give me a GMC Acadia. Here's

1:09:50

my car. Tell me how much

1:09:52

I owe you. I don't even negotiate. I don't even have the

1:09:54

whole thing. I was so excited

1:09:56

when Saturday came out and said, we're just going to do

1:09:58

one price. It's on the sticker. You yet there

1:10:00

now And. Then I would go by a Saturday and and

1:10:03

are already gone on a business. I

1:10:05

guess I was the only one it was excited about

1:10:07

the no negotiation part. He

1:10:11

says don't buy a new car. It

1:10:15

would probably take me half a day to go to the exercise

1:10:17

of buying a car and reading the owner's manual and all that.

1:10:19

That's why it as a when a new Korea does. Ornery, The

1:10:21

Owner's Manual. It's. I've never read one

1:10:23

of my life. And

1:10:26

now you only need that one. Lights come on and

1:10:28

the car does it work and you're on the side

1:10:30

of the highway. That's when somebody goes. Get a manual.

1:10:32

Ah, the glove compartment. And

1:10:35

ladies have to go through this whole

1:10:37

thing and would a picture of the

1:10:39

thing that lights up to zap batteries

1:10:41

or on his you're older car still

1:10:43

working. You are pouring money into repairs.

1:10:45

put that time and money into something

1:10:47

else he says. Car. And

1:10:50

home maintenance. Well, you're going to have

1:10:52

more maintenance on old houses. You're going to have more

1:10:54

maintenance on an old car. Lauren. Learning

1:10:57

how to do basic repairs on your home

1:10:59

to our. Oh.

1:11:02

No. None that I

1:11:05

have no interest in learning anything.

1:11:07

About a car engine. And. God

1:11:09

forbid somebody let me attempt that. That would

1:11:11

be a terrible air on. Everyone's part.

1:11:13

Is. Com. He's a master

1:11:16

basic. Do it yourself! Skill skills that

1:11:18

could potentially save you money on repairs and least

1:11:20

I wouldn't get in a car that I worked

1:11:22

on. Know. Know for sure

1:11:24

some ain't gonna work. now. If I

1:11:27

thought that was broken, it's definitely broken.

1:11:29

Now That is Not. That.

1:11:31

Is nice of of have

1:11:34

a realistic to dining now.

1:11:37

He. Says we soon bloody. It's.

1:11:39

No secret that eating out. he goes Mcdonalds everyday

1:11:42

but he sticks to his two dollars and twelve

1:11:44

something is the stock market is up. He gets

1:11:46

hash browns is it's not. He does not. Thoughtless.

1:11:49

Self punishment I can only have hash

1:11:51

browns. Is the markets up. Will.

1:11:56

Opus Dei Creep. It's. it's no secret

1:11:58

that eating out good take it buy it out of

1:12:00

your budget. Go

1:12:02

banking rates recently reported that

1:12:05

a steak dinner cooked at home can cost less

1:12:07

than even a cheap fast-food meal.

1:12:09

Some of us don't have time for that. That

1:12:11

means I have to go get the steak, then come

1:12:13

home, cook the steak. I could have been through Taco

1:12:16

Bell, already eaten and been home. Similarly,

1:12:18

the cost of meeting friends for happy hours

1:12:20

adds up, like

1:12:23

Warren's ever gone to a happy hour, complete.

1:12:26

Instead of investors, we recommended hosting

1:12:28

small gatherings at home. No.

1:12:31

It's a lot easier to say to my friends and meet me at

1:12:33

the bar. Because then I have

1:12:36

to worry about is the house

1:12:38

clean or whatever. And

1:12:40

some happy hours. I mean, I know

1:12:42

one here, not far from

1:12:44

here, and beer is $2. Bottle of

1:12:47

beer for happy hour. Yeah.

1:12:51

Yeah. People at your house,

1:12:53

you don't know. You invite people or they could steal shit.

1:12:58

My parents feel the most out of this

1:13:00

house. I went in to get

1:13:02

a paper bowl for something for baby cat. All of them

1:13:04

were gone. Yeah. Like I

1:13:07

alone use 75 paper bowls. And I'm like,

1:13:09

God damn it. I bet she took them.

1:13:11

My mom took them. Why didn't

1:13:13

you use them all? Well, how about leave me

1:13:15

one? Maybe I won't use 75, but

1:13:18

that's the package they came in. It was going to be good

1:13:20

for like a year. Credit

1:13:22

cards. Aaron doesn't like credit. Dad, dad, I agree

1:13:24

with him. That does cause a lot of

1:13:26

problems, especially with young series cause problems with me. I

1:13:29

had it because at one point I

1:13:31

was trying to get that home loan a long

1:13:33

time ago. And my brother goes, do you have

1:13:35

a credit card at Victoria's secret? I said,

1:13:37

Patrick, I have a credit card from anywhere

1:13:39

that offered one. Yes. Because in your

1:13:42

twenties and thirties, you're like, I get what

1:13:44

$12 off this right now.

1:13:47

Absolutely. I'm signing up.

1:13:51

There was one, my sister and

1:13:53

her friends when they were like in their twenties,

1:13:56

one of her friends, older brother was a money

1:13:58

guy. And shit,

1:14:01

no I can't think of, oh, she

1:14:04

was like, yeah, something like having these money problems

1:14:06

that I'm trying to get like this and that

1:14:08

and they're saying my credit is back, he looked

1:14:10

at my stuff, so he went and looked through

1:14:12

it all and he goes, you and your dumbass

1:14:14

friends need to stop drinking liquor and doing shots

1:14:17

at whatever bar Banana Republic is. He's like,

1:14:19

what bar? She's

1:14:24

like, that's at my work club. He

1:14:26

goes, oh, okay. Warren says,

1:14:29

don't gamble. Warren, how do you think I

1:14:31

get through most weekends of my life when

1:14:33

there's no sports on? I gamble on shit I don't

1:14:35

know about and that's what makes it fun. He

1:14:37

says, no lottery tickets? Well, he's never won on

1:14:40

a scratch off. You don't know the fun, the

1:14:42

fun. Risky

1:14:45

investments. Well, I'm guilty of

1:14:47

that if you consider Bitcoin to be risky, but

1:14:49

I only risked enough that I don't care if I lose it. And

1:14:52

right now it's worth double. By the way, Bitcoin, Ethereum,

1:14:58

I haven't talked about it in a while because it kind of went in a tank and

1:15:00

now it's all back. Never

1:15:02

invest in a business you cannot understand.

1:15:04

These are risky investments. Well,

1:15:07

I would agree with that. Always

1:15:10

research a business before you invest in its stock and

1:15:12

don't be afraid to seek the help of a financial

1:15:14

advisor, whatever. He says, don't buy

1:15:16

the latest gadgets. I'm sure

1:15:19

Warren's wandering around Omaha with a flip

1:15:21

phone. And a VCR. And a

1:15:23

VCR and the tapes work

1:15:25

fine. I can watch Jaws again, watch this.

1:15:27

Boom. Boom. Warren

1:15:33

didn't upgrade his flip phone until 20, 20. He

1:15:36

purchased an iPhone. So I'm sure he's got

1:15:39

the first one ever made. He probably doesn't even know if he went

1:15:41

online and sold that he could get a billion dollars. And

1:15:43

then a lot

1:15:45

of guys want the earlier iPhones because they were

1:15:48

smaller and go better in your pocket. At least

1:15:50

so says my brother. Yeah,

1:15:52

the tinier. Because they just keep getting larger and

1:15:54

larger. And the iPhone

1:15:56

like four, those were super

1:15:59

weenie. Yeah Don't

1:16:03

buy low quality products It's

1:16:05

a low quality product. Yeah, I love it.

1:16:07

We're Donald Trump. Okay, you're a low quality

1:16:10

person This is Christine a low

1:16:12

quality person. I know he loved that say

1:16:14

price is what you pay values what you get But

1:16:17

here's the problem. Um Nobody

1:16:19

knows what called quality is anymore or not. Let's say you

1:16:21

go to Best Buy or you go to Target to buy

1:16:23

a TV I don't know

1:16:25

what's quality or what's not quality They're all look the same

1:16:28

and they're all within kind of the same price range Here's

1:16:30

a little something I learned though You should ask the people

1:16:33

at Best Buy or Target is that a 2024 model? Because

1:16:36

they have the model they can look that up

1:16:38

and they sell TVs in there the cheaper ones not

1:16:40

a lot cheaper A few hundred dollars. It's like a

1:16:42

2022. Yeah, but that does matter for

1:16:45

downloading apps and streaming and anyway, I learned that

1:16:47

the hard way So

1:16:50

he doesn't like wasteful purchases. He

1:16:52

doesn't really Who say

1:16:55

what that is? He doesn't like unused

1:16:57

subscriptions. I Have

1:17:00

a lot of unused subscriptions. Yes. Everything

1:17:02

I do is a wasteful purchase according

1:17:04

to him final note Live

1:17:07

within your means don't spend money. You don't

1:17:09

have everybody does because you gave us credit

1:17:11

cards Warren before that I

1:17:13

can actually remember be I'm old enough to remember when you

1:17:15

could not use a credit card for groceries The

1:17:18

first time they allowed that I was like

1:17:20

what? You always had

1:17:22

to pay cash That's what

1:17:24

led to my mom going put that back put that

1:17:26

back and she had that red little counter that had

1:17:28

three little white Buttons like a little clicker thing and

1:17:30

she back Yeah,

1:17:34

it was totally fascinating Live

1:17:38

with him and don't spend money on things you

1:17:40

don't need well, you don't need all there's I

1:17:43

learned from moving I got my whole life down to

1:17:45

two gym bags. There's all kinds of

1:17:47

shit I don't need but you like

1:17:49

them Warren So

1:17:52

if you're well Yeah,

1:17:55

Warren not so I'm not into

1:17:57

it. I don't want to live

1:17:59

with you I

1:18:02

have 75 bar t-shirts and I like each one

1:18:04

of them because I had a good time in that bar. This

1:18:09

is the greatest story ever and

1:18:12

it's your nation, Paddles. A

1:18:15

wild goose was taken to an animal hospital.

1:18:18

Later his mate knocked on the door to find

1:18:21

him. Oh,

1:18:23

heartbreaking. No, it's

1:18:25

a wonderful story. No, it's not.

1:18:27

They made for life. I know they made for life. As

1:18:31

if a Canada goose named Arnold isn't endearing

1:18:33

enough. So every time you see geese and

1:18:35

you get annoyed that they're going to the

1:18:37

bathroom on the property, which I do frequently, just

1:18:39

remember they really do have like a little soul

1:18:41

going on there and

1:18:44

they're really sweet. Even

1:18:46

though I've had a few hiss at me on golf

1:18:48

courses and I'm like, whoa, whoa. There's

1:18:51

a mean streak. Yeah, they're snappers. They're

1:18:53

snappers. Snapping. Yeah.

1:18:56

Snapping. They're sweet when they're sweet, but they're not

1:18:58

when they're not. As if a Canada goose

1:19:00

named Arnold isn't endearing enough, his partner who came

1:19:02

looking for him when he was injured is warming

1:19:04

the hearts and have a root for this sweet

1:19:06

feathered couple. Cape Wildlife Center

1:19:08

in Barnstable, Massachusetts shared the story on

1:19:11

his Facebook page and what they called

1:19:13

a first for their animal hospital. It

1:19:16

happened in Massachusetts, but they're Canadian geese. We

1:19:18

often have people ask if they can visit

1:19:20

the patients they dropped off, but today we

1:19:22

had our first animal visitor. For

1:19:24

the safety of our patients, we do not accommodate

1:19:26

visitation requests, but in this case we made an

1:19:29

exception. He's a Canada

1:19:31

goose that lives on a pond near the facility and part

1:19:33

in the pair is part of the

1:19:35

mated pair of wild geese that have been together for

1:19:37

several years. The center said the geese usually

1:19:39

keep to themselves and then I can't read that.

1:19:42

It's a particular way to get rid of this. But

1:19:46

one of them noticed Arnold was walking

1:19:48

with a significant limp and kept falling over.

1:19:50

They were able to capture him and bring him to

1:19:52

the hospital for an examination. A goose visits

1:19:55

it. Upon exam,

1:19:58

our veterinary team found out that he had two... option fractures

1:20:00

on his foot. That means the tissue in

1:20:02

the skin would have been pulled away leaving the bone

1:20:04

exposed. Our best guess is that a snapping kernel or

1:20:06

another predator attacked him while swimming. To save his

1:20:08

foot and help him survive this afternoon, they had to amputate

1:20:10

one of the digits and suture the other

1:20:13

wounds closed. They gave him antibiotics and pain meds

1:20:15

and prepped him for the surgery. Then his mate

1:20:17

came knocking. And there's a picture of it knocking

1:20:20

on the front door of the animal hospital. He's

1:20:22

banging his beak or she I guess, I don't

1:20:24

know. Today as we prepared to sedate

1:20:26

Arnold and get him ready for surgery, we heard

1:20:28

a faint tapping at the clinic door. We turned

1:20:31

to see that his mate had waddled up onto

1:20:33

the porch and was attempting to get in. She

1:20:35

had somehow located him and was agitated. She could

1:20:37

not get inside. She

1:20:40

remained there throughout the entire procedure, watching

1:20:43

us work, never moving from the doorway. And

1:20:46

yep, surgery went well.

1:20:48

And once Arnold woke up, the staff decided

1:20:50

to let him recover by the doorway. So he

1:20:52

and his mate could see each other. We opened the door

1:20:54

and gave Arnold his flow by

1:20:56

oxygen in the doorway. His mate immediately calmed down

1:20:58

and began to groom him through the door.

1:21:00

They both seemed much more at ease with

1:21:03

each other's presence. Ah, the article

1:21:05

actually says, ah, he's seated. He needed

1:21:07

several weeks of treatment in our hospital before he

1:21:09

was able to rejoin his mate in the wild.

1:21:12

He will be kept inside for the majority of the time in order

1:21:14

to keep his wound sterile and prevent infection.

1:21:17

We'll do him back to get him out

1:21:20

the doorway as soon as possible so

1:21:22

that his mate can be with him. So

1:21:25

there you go. Feel Good Story of the Day. I

1:21:28

love it. Yeah. Isn't it amazing? She

1:21:30

could probably smell and know where he was.

1:21:32

They're real smart. Or

1:21:34

maybe she watched them and followed them. So

1:21:37

there you go. There's your Feel Good Story of the... Yep.

1:21:41

Termite. Yeah, that would be a Disney movie too. Yeah.

1:21:46

Disney will ruin the movie though because they'll

1:21:48

kill somebody's mother. So

1:21:50

that's what the Disney's do. They kill it.

1:21:52

Oh, there goes my Loch Ness Monster. All

1:21:54

right, Termite. Hey, we added a show in

1:21:56

Anaheim, California. The

1:21:58

Grove. I love it. that place. It's

1:22:01

super fun. So

1:22:03

that's been added. And here's the list

1:22:05

of where everything is happening out on

1:22:07

the road this week, Santa Rosa,

1:22:10

Wheatland. Those are makeup shows. Thanks to everybody

1:22:12

who kept a ticket. That was

1:22:14

when the health thing with the parentals broke

1:22:16

down and I had to cancel. San Louis,

1:22:18

Obispo, Monterey, that's week after

1:22:20

next. Birmingham, Alabama,

1:22:23

Scottsdale, Chattanooga, Chug, Chug,

1:22:25

Chug, Atlanta. I

1:22:27

said Atlanta. Oh, I didn't? Okay. Atlanta,

1:22:30

Cobb. Energy Center. Huntsville,

1:22:33

Royal Oak, two shows, Dayton,

1:22:35

Indy, San Antonio, Austin,

1:22:38

Marietta, Ohio, Cincinnati, Tarrytown, New

1:22:40

York, Wilmington, Delaware, and then

1:22:42

Anaheim is April 26. In

1:22:45

case you want to head

1:22:47

out there. And Thousand Oaks is

1:22:49

the 27th. So that's a little California

1:22:52

weekend. A lot of

1:22:54

California weekends. Far

1:22:56

to fly, but I usually have fun. So that's

1:22:59

it. Oh, Dolly quote, Tay Tay quote, they were

1:23:01

out of here. Sometimes I forget. Random,

1:23:04

open it up. Through

1:23:10

the years, this is Dolly. I've always used my feminine

1:23:12

entity to my benefit. I never slept with anybody

1:23:14

to get to the top though. If I slept

1:23:16

with somebody, it's because I wanted to not to

1:23:19

get from point A to point B. That

1:23:21

was discussing men during an interview with Bus

1:23:23

Magazine. Hey, Tay. Let's

1:23:26

see.

1:23:28

Yeah.

1:23:33

This is what she wrote and said in the

1:23:36

Daily Beast in 2017. Songs

1:23:38

for me are like a message in a bottle. You send

1:23:40

them out to the world. And maybe the person who you

1:23:43

feel that way about will

1:23:45

hear about it someday. Hmm,

1:23:50

depends on what you wrote.

1:23:52

Yeah, because a lot of hers

1:23:54

are fuck you. Here's

1:23:56

another reason I decided you're an asshole. Tell

1:24:00

me about fantasy. Fantasy

1:24:02

football I lost by a half a point

1:24:04

to my friend Kathy Lewis. Lewis was in

1:24:07

the bottom. I finished second.

1:24:10

That just shows you people every point constant

1:24:12

fantasy every single week. I literally

1:24:14

lost by a half a point because Philadelphia

1:24:17

fell apart and I had their kicker

1:24:19

and I had Jalen Hurts. I

1:24:22

just, you know, like different choices.

1:24:24

Yeah. Yeah, but a

1:24:26

second place paid and right now I'm in the playoff bracket

1:24:28

pool and I have won three out of four. There have

1:24:31

really been four games and there are only five of us

1:24:33

who have done that. The only

1:24:35

one I lost was I did pick Dallas

1:24:37

over Green Bay. I'm sorry, Green Bay. I

1:24:40

love you. But

1:24:42

I just fell for what everybody

1:24:44

was saying. Even though. Yeah,

1:24:48

just to watch. How about the kid

1:24:50

league? The Children's League I dominated.

1:24:52

Yeah, there's gonna be a lot of

1:24:54

sad little fuckers sending me one dollar

1:24:56

bills. Yeah, that's two. And my dad

1:24:58

came in second. I don't know why

1:25:01

he's in the Children's League.

1:25:05
