00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:15.519
I'm the worst person to have a podcast.

00:00:15.839 --> 00:00:28.640
I do fairly what's up, everybody.

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:31.359
Welcome back to the Hook and Bridge Podcast.

00:00:31.600 --> 00:00:38.159
I am your host, Harley, joined by my co-host and little sister, Taylor.

00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:38.960
Uh-huh.

00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:41.039
What's up, buddy?

00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:42.560
Nothing much.

00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:45.280
We haven't done this in a long time.

00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:46.560
Long time.

00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:48.159
We've been busy.

00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:51.039
I know.

00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:51.920
It's just us.

00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:53.200
How exciting.

00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:57.280
So I'm going to reveal some stuff to you.

00:00:58.320 --> 00:00:58.640
Okay.

00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:03.520
So on Friday.

00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:14.959
Um I did half an hour giving you a farewell because you were leaving the show.

00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:16.560
Yeah.

00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:23.680
Me and Chris did half an hour just talking about you and saying all that.

00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:25.040
Hopefully all nice things.

00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:25.599
It was.

00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:26.719
It was all nice things.

00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:34.560
And telling, you know, telling the audience how sad we were to see you go and understanding the situation.

00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:39.200
And that's crazy because they were really big shoes for Chris to fill.

00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:40.400
And now I'm here.

00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.640
They're actually they're they're very small shoes.

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:44.400
Don't look at my dogs.

00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:46.159
Don't look at those.

00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:56.079
Um but like it was a it was a complete shock to Chris because I was like, Yeah, you know, it's just she wants to, but the schedule's not working out, blah blah blah.

00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:58.640
So he he didn't know until we were on the air.

00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:00.000
I told him on the air.

00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:04.079
So his crazy was genuine.

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:10.560
And then a couple hours later, you texted me, I'm gonna try and make it work.

00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:12.879
So, okay, so here's the thing, guys.

00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:14.400
Here's the thing.

00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:24.319
I my work schedule, Harley and I were talking about this, and I know I work eight-hour days, okay, and I get that, and I get that's a normal working time.

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:27.360
However, I have to do opening.

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:31.919
So like I work 4 30 until like 1, 1 30.

00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:40.240
So, you know, anywho, with that being said, I am usually in bed and asleep by this time.

00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:46.159
Like, I have been trying to like because like last night I didn't sleep very well, and it's been a whole thing.

00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:55.520
So I've been trying to like get to bed at a certain time, and then Saturdays is my one actual day off, like my guaranteed day off.

00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:58.240
And that's also Dylan's guaranteed day off.

00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:04.479
So, like, normally Friday night is when we go out to do something because neither of us have to get up early to go to work.

00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:11.280
So, like, we've been spending a lot of time with his family and going and doing things on Friday with his family, and anywho, yeah.

00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:28.000
So I am going to make an effort to set time aside for uh either uh we do this earlier in the evening or like him and I are done by like seven and we do it.

00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:29.919
I'm gonna attempt my best.

00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:35.840
But the past couple weeks, honestly, the past couple weeks we have had actual like family dinners that we've had to attend to.

00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:37.759
Like it just wasn't gonna work out.

00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.159
Um yeah, no, so that's that.

00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:41.680
I'm gonna try.

00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:44.560
We're gonna try, we're gonna see what happens.

00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:46.800
Uh, Starbees is wrecking me.

00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:50.400
They are working me like a dog.

00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:51.680
I got sent home early today.

00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:52.560
That's a thing.

00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:55.039
Oh yeah, not in a bad way.

00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:58.080
Oh yeah, yeah, no.

00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:02.080
I got there and there was nothing for me to do.

00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:06.719
And I was like, okay, that's funny because they were so slow today.

00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:14.080
And they put me on support, so like I'm supposed to go like restock and get ice, do all of these things, but all of that was done.

00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:16.160
And I said, Okay, so then what do I do?

00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:19.120
She was like, honestly, I don't know.

00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:24.160
We're all trying to just kind of trying to find things to do because athletes you can't just hang out.

00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:25.680
Like, if you hang out, you get in trouble.

00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:26.480
Sure.

00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:31.199
Which is like, I get it, but also there's genuinely nothing for us to do.

00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:32.879
You know what I mean?

00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:34.560
Like, just let it anywho, not the point.

00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:37.759
So I got there, there was nothing for me to do.

00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:41.279
Honestly, they could have sent me, I got sent home at like 2 30.

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:42.800
I was supposed to work until four.

00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:44.959
They could have sent me home at 12.

00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:47.360
I had nothing to do.

00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:55.360
So then I I made a joke because the one shift lead, we switched shift leads because with me working eight hours, I go through three different shift leads.

00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:58.480
So the last shift lead, uh, he said something.

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:00.720
I was like, oh, do you want me to go like deep clean the bathroom?

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:02.000
He goes, I already did.

00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:03.360
Okay.

00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:06.639
He had sent me on, I got two 10-minute breaks today.

00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:07.519
Dang.

00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:10.720
That never happens because we're always so busy.

00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:12.720
I'm supposed to have two 10-minute breaks.

00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:16.000
So I'm supposed to have two 10-minute breaks and a 30-minute lunch break.

00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:20.399
But like, I'm always guaranteed one 10-minute break.

00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:23.759
And then if I get another one, cool.

00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:25.120
If not, it's fine.

00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:26.319
Uh yeah.

00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:30.240
So I went on a 10 and then I did a whole trash run situation.

00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:35.040
And then he was like, I mean, I guess there's really nothing for you to do.

00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:36.240
Like, do you want to go home?

00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:37.680
And I said, Are you serious?

00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.800
And he says, Yeah, like I don't, like, we can handle it.

00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:43.519
Like, there's there's three of us here, and he was like, It'll be all right.

00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:44.879
I said, See you later, Don.

00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:48.480
Now you know you don't get paid for those last two hours that you went home.

00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:48.879
Oh, okay.

00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:50.079
Okay, well, yeah, I clocked out.

00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:55.839
But I I worked nine and a half hours the other day, so like theoretically, it's gonna kind of equal out.

00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:56.720
Right.

00:05:56.959 --> 00:06:02.639
Uh so the other thing too that'll make things easier is with me moving.

00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:04.879
Um, I'll be I'll be home earlier.

00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:05.600
You know what I mean?

00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:07.120
So I'll be which will be nice.

00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:07.519
Yeah, yeah.

00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:11.759
I'll be able to, if we need to, do the show a little earlier.

00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:14.000
Um that that'll help out.

00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.879
And I think that would help Chris too, doing it a little earlier.

00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:18.160
I agree, yeah.

00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:19.279
Yeah, yeah, ideally.

00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:29.839
I am yeah, I am I don't know if I can put that on here, but did you were you able to reach my lips?

00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:34.800
Yeah, I think you said that you were looking to uh bomb Starbucks.

00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:36.720
Yeah, close enough.

00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:40.720
Um, I uh everybody I'm getting.

00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:41.439
That's not what you're saying.

00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:43.040
It's a joke, it's a joke, it's not what I said.

00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:45.360
If you want to know what I said, you better watch this on YouTube.

00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:54.879
Anywho, so I'm currently doing that, so I'm hoping that will help the situation, and I'm you know I don't know.

00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:57.920
I'm either I'm also like I'm willing to work part-time.

00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:01.439
Like I'm not willing to take a pay cut, like it would have to match my pay.

00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:02.399
Sure, sure, sure.

00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:08.000
I'm willing to do part-time because I've I've put a hefty amount of money on my credit card so far.

00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:09.519
I got it down to about five grand.

00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:11.279
Down?

00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:14.160
You got it down to yo.

00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:21.279
I'm in a lot of debt, but like each all of my paychecks have been like a thousand plus dollars, not by much.

00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:23.759
It's been like eleven hundred, twelve hundred.

00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:29.680
So I'm just putting like nine hundred to a thousand dollars each time on my card.

00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:32.959
So hopefully that'll get paid off soon.

00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:36.879
But uh, so some updates.

00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:38.319
Umdates.

00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:51.279
So we did that, we did that on Friday, me and Chris, and uh it was a half an hour show uh that I think I may release as like the ending to this show just for funsies.

00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:52.720
That's super fun.

00:07:53.199 --> 00:08:03.439
Um, but Lindsay was having a heck of a time with the baby, so she busted in in the middle of the show and just dropped Adam off on me and then was like, I gotta go clean some stuff up.

00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:11.120
And then he was screaming, and there was a whole thing, and then she came in and she took him back, and then she slammed the door, and I looked at Chris and I was like, I think I have to leave.

00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:12.800
And he was like, You better.

00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:14.720
And I was like, Yeah, that's crazy.

00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:15.360
What happened?

00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:16.639
What do you do?

00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:30.399
Um, so the the dog uh peed on the floor, and um he was trying to like get into it.

00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:35.919
So McKenna was supposed to join us, uh, but she is unable to.

00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:39.360
She said that we have she hopes that we have a great podcast.

00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:45.440
Oh, yeah, I heard you were rage baiting McKenna, which is crazy because I don't even think you listened to Sabrina Carpenter's new album.

00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:52.399
Because I said that Tears was my favorite song, and I think you just ran with that and you told her that it was the worst song ever, but she called me.

00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:59.360
She called me after the birthday party and said we have to talk because why is he rage baiting me like that?

00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:00.159
What does that mean?

00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:01.519
What's rage baiting mean?

00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:05.200
Um, meaning that you say something to get a rise out of the other person.

00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:08.320
Oh no, no, this was my genuine opinion.

00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:13.360
So I actually I actually did because I actually do enjoy music.

00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:21.919
So I'm staying in the loop on everything, so yeah, I've listened to I've listened to the new uh Sabrina Carpenter record.

00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.879
Um, I've listened to the new Rob Thomas record.

00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:29.360
Oh, I didn't know there was a new Robinson record record, the new Lofy record.

00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:45.039
Um, but yes, I did listen to her her whole album in its entirety, and I listened to the last one in its entirety afterwards to because to I wanted to give like a concise true analysis.

00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:56.480
Yeah, and I knew that you wouldn't do that level of research, even though you love so here's the thing is I have recently listened to both albums in their entirety.

00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:58.480
Like I listen, I do that anyways.

00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:03.039
Well, let's let's table that for a little bit later.

00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.120
We're gonna there's going to be this Sabrina Carpenter discussion.

00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:09.519
The show may go a little longer than I thought.

00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:10.879
Oh, buddy.

00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:13.360
I don't know if it can.

00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:14.879
I still have to eat dinner.

00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:16.159
Me too.

00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:24.399
Um, so anyways, that was Friday, and then Saturday, my little boy turned one year old.

00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:26.159
He's a big boy now.

00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:32.000
He's one year old, and Hems is so cute.

00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:33.759
He's such a wonderful guy.

00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:36.000
We had a great little party for him.

00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:38.639
Oh, it was so cute.

00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:44.320
It was Hungry Caterpillar themed from the Hungry Caterpillar book from Eric Carl.

00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:49.200
Uh, it was very, very fun, very, very cool themed.

00:10:49.519 --> 00:10:57.679
Um it was a very nice venue, and you know how there's bridezillas?

00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:19.440
Yeah, no one talks about the momzillas, and I think that there should be more um uh words, more light brought to that's not the word that I'm looking for, more awareness.

00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:26.320
That's the word more awareness brought to these momzillas because turns out I married one and I didn't know.

00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:28.320
I could have told you that.

00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:29.279
Yo.

00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:34.399
In the best way, I love her to death, but she takes Adam very seriously.

00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:41.600
It started Friday night, and then it bled into most of the day on Saturday.

00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:45.120
Um, dude, Saturday?

00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:47.919
We got so the party started at 1, right?

00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:50.480
Yeah, we got there at 12:30, right?

00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:50.799
Yeah.

00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:57.759
Now, now I know everyone that knows me personally is gonna be like, it's not that big of a deal, you're a big guy, you know.

00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:02.720
And people that watch the YouTube video are probably gonna be like, eh, it's not a big deal, you're a big guy.

00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:06.240
Uh people listening, just so you know, I'm a big guy.

00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:13.200
But I woke up, I've been trying to cut back on coffee, trying real, real hard to cut back on coffee.

00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:19.440
And I woke up and I didn't drink or eat anything.

00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:24.720
I just immediately started taking care of him so that she could do what she needed to do.

00:12:25.600 --> 00:12:30.559
So then I thought, you know, a couple hours of that and I'll I'll get a break.

00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:40.320
And then a couple more hours went by and I didn't get a break, and then it was 11:30, and I was like, okay, well, I have to get a shower because I have to be a part of this party.

00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:56.480
So I got a shower, and then I got out of the shower, and I continued taking care of him, and I got yelled at all day for random things, but I didn't eat or drink anything until an hour and a half into the party.

00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:04.320
It was like 2 30 before I got anything into my body.

00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:06.559
You and I are two very different people.

00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:09.120
Like I oh, sorry, go ahead.

00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:12.480
So the first thing that I had, so we had it at an ice cream place.

00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:15.200
Shout out Beans Ice Cream in Picosin.

00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:16.720
Fantastic.

00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:28.639
Um, but we had it at this ice cream place, and uh, I went next door, so they have like a party area that is next to the actual ice cream shop, and then they close it up and you're in the party area.

00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:40.320
So I went next door to the ice cream place because I saw a picture on the wall in the party side of somebody holding coffee, and I was like, Do they have coffee?

00:13:40.559 --> 00:13:42.960
So I went next door and I was like, Do you guys have coffee?

00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:51.919
And they're like, Not only do we have coffee, but we make a cold brew shake with any flavor of ice cream that you want.

00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:52.559
Wow.

00:13:53.200 --> 00:14:02.399
So I got a vanilla cold brew shake, and they use stoke coffee to make it.

00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:09.200
So as soon as the girl the girl pulls out the bottle of green stoke out of the freezer, like, is that stoke?

00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:10.240
Is that how you're making this?

00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:11.200
And she was like, Yeah.

00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:21.519
I said, Listen, I'm gonna need you to pour half that bottle into the choose a shake, and I said, and then you can just give me the other half because I'm about to drink it.

00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:24.159
Literally, like, here's$20.

00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:25.120
Take all of them.

00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:29.759
Uh, but that shake was fucking phenomenal, dude.

00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:30.799
That sounds delicious.

00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:32.159
So good.

00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:39.679
I had Lindsay try some, she loved it, so then I went and got her one, and I got me a second one because as you should.

00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:41.519
It was my son's birthday.

00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:43.440
Yeah, got him.

00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:44.960
Drink up.

00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:46.960
But he had he had a blast.

00:14:47.039 --> 00:14:47.679
He had a great time.

00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:48.320
That's good.

00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:52.639
And then he had a great time all day yesterday and today.

00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:54.559
Um was he on a sugar hike?

00:14:55.360 --> 00:15:00.159
Um, he didn't have he didn't have a sugar crash.

00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:04.240
He had a I've been awake because he didn't nap either.

00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:09.840
Dude, he was up for like yeah, he was up for like seven hours straight.

00:15:10.080 --> 00:15:11.120
What a guy.

00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:18.000
Oh, he finally got home and crashed around seven, eight o'clock and was out for the night.

00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:20.639
Yeah.

00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:22.240
Go for him.

00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:24.320
He's been going through it today, though.

00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:26.080
He has been a grouchy little dude.

00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:28.320
Wow, he misses the party fun.

00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:31.039
Oh that's a fun.

00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:34.159
Yeah, he's he's getting he's gonna get better though.

00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:38.240
I think Dylan and I have the same chair, but in different colors.

00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:38.879
You do.

00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:40.559
I said that when you got the chair.

00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:41.120
Ah.

00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:43.279
You really don't listen when I talk.

00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:45.120
Most of the time, no.

00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:48.720
I literally was I literally was like, you and Dylan have the same chair.

00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:50.159
We had a whole conversation.

00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:56.159
Um, so you haven't listened to the new AJR at all, right?

00:15:57.519 --> 00:15:59.519
I want to show you one song.

00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:02.240
And we're gonna make me cry.

00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:03.519
No, no, no, no.

00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:04.000
Okay.

00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:10.399
Um, but we're going to we're gonna play it, but we're gonna talk during it so that we don't get copyrighted.

00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:11.440
Okay.

00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:17.440
Um, but I really want your take on it because it's really, really good.

00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:20.960
It might be my new favorite AJR song, honestly.

00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:23.440
Um, it's called The Big Goodbye.

00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:27.840
And it's it's not sad.

00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.200
Um and the music, oh, I can't wait.

00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:33.200
I'm gonna show you the actual music video.

00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:36.639
So let's see here.

00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:44.080
Well, while you show me that, we can talk about uh the situation that happened at Starbucks.

00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:45.200
Oh, dude.

00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:48.240
There's so much drama happening.

00:16:50.159 --> 00:16:52.480
So Lisa is leaving.

00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:54.320
Lisa's leaving.

00:16:55.039 --> 00:17:03.279
Yes, so she is going on a coffee break, I think they call it, or something like that, where she gets paid.

00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:09.839
I I think because she's been there for over 20 years or something, that she gets to just take a year off.

00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:12.400
What so come October?

00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:15.119
She's just like on a sabbatical for a year.

00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:16.720
What?

00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:20.640
Yeah, so and I found I found this out because Kristen said.

00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:22.400
Oh, can I use anything?

00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:24.160
Can I use actual names?

00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:25.680
I probably shouldn't, right?

00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:26.880
Can we put it on the case?

00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:28.880
Uh we're not saying their last names, you're fine.

00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:29.440
Okay.

00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:36.400
Um, yeah, so I think she gets paid, not like her full pay, but I think she gets some sort of compensation.

00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:38.319
Like she I think she still gets her health insurance.

00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:44.559
Yeah, but she also has like it's something you have to earn because she's been there for X amount of years.

00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:46.880
I'm 10 years away.

00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:49.839
So no, I'm nine years away.

00:17:50.319 --> 00:17:51.119
Nine years away.

00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:57.039
So Kristen, um, I found this out because she asked me, she said, Do you want to learn how to do tits?

00:17:57.680 --> 00:17:58.799
I said, Yeah, sure.

00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:01.119
You know, and I was like, that's random.

00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:03.119
And she goes, Yeah, well, Lisa's leaving.

00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:05.599
I said, What do you mean Lisa's leaving?

00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:07.599
Also, there's so many other people here.

00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:08.880
Why do I have to learn how to do it?

00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:09.519
I can't camp.

00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:12.160
Like that is that simple.

00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:14.480
Anywho, so there's that tea.

00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:19.599
Um, but this guy came through the line today and he had this giant order.

00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:21.359
It was like$50.

00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:28.880
And which is not hard, obviously, where I would have coffees in a sandwich.

00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:42.640
Literally, but he got it, it's he got three or four different coffees, um uh some sort of frappuccino, and then a refresher, I think, and then like a couple food items.

00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:48.480
Anywho, so he gets these lattes, you you and me both, buddy.

00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:52.319
So he gets these lattes, and I was over it.

00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:55.119
Like, I was tired of reading people's things back.

00:18:55.279 --> 00:18:58.880
I didn't get a lot of sleep last night, so like I wasn't reading very well.

00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:09.519
Anywho, so I was like, if everything looks correct for you on the screen, it's going to be this price, you know, kind of like a speak down forever hold your peace situation.

00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:17.119
Okay, that if I tell you if everything looks correct on the screen, and you say, Yeah, it looks good, that's it, that's your order.

00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:18.720
That's what you're getting.

00:19:19.039 --> 00:19:19.759
It's that simple.

00:19:20.079 --> 00:19:23.839
All right, so for any of you listening, that's on you dog.

00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:29.759
He pays for it, but doesn't question the price or anything, pays for it.

00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:37.359
I hand him out these drinks, and he goes, We're not supposed to have three lattes.

00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:41.039
I said, Wow, that's crazy.

00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:44.240
I was like, Did you read the screen when I asked you if everything was right?

00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:45.440
Yeah.

00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:56.400
I said, Okay, well, the three lattes were on the screen, and also they were different types of lattes, and I definitely was like, This latte, this latte, this latte.

00:19:56.480 --> 00:19:57.680
And you said, Yes.

00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:01.359
And he was like, Well, we're not supposed to have three.

00:20:01.440 --> 00:20:03.440
I said, Do you want me to have someone come over here and take it off?

00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:04.960
No, I guess it's fine.

00:20:05.279 --> 00:20:06.720
And he was like mad about it.

00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:08.559
I'm like, please don't come back.

00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:10.160
Sorry.

00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:18.960
And then I had another guy come in who wanted an iced espresso shot with like all of these things, and he was super nice.

00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:22.799
But we're going through everything, and he goes, and then I want two side cups of ice.

00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:30.000
And I said, Okay, so I go through everything, and I tell him everything that's in his iced espresso with the two things of ice.

00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:32.480
And he's a regular, so I had someone come over and even help me.

00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:34.240
She was like, Yeah, this is how he likes it.

00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:37.599
Please tell me why he gets it.

00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:40.880
And he goes, Oh no, I didn't want ice in the espresso.

00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:52.960
And I was like, I literally asked you if you still wanted ice in the espresso, or if you just wanted the espresso and then your separate cup of ice, and you're like, No ice in the espresso.

00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:55.680
I cannot make this up, anywho.

00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:59.440
So then he was like, Do you want me to pay for it for like a new one?

00:20:59.519 --> 00:21:01.119
I said, No, we'll remake it, it's fine.

00:21:01.519 --> 00:21:04.160
Also, for those of you listening, I don't actually tell the people this.

00:21:04.400 --> 00:21:07.119
I'm very nice, except for the guy that came through the drink.

00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:09.359
I told him because that's wild.

00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:13.759
Anywho, then he goes, Oh, well, are you sure?

00:21:13.839 --> 00:21:14.960
Like, are you just gonna throw these out?

00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:18.160
I said, You can just have you know like you can have these these twos.

00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:23.759
But like this dude left with like five espresso, like like venti espresso.

00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:25.119
Yeah, it was crazy.

00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:26.880
And he was like, This seems like a lot of coffee.

00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:28.720
I said, Yeah, you're gonna be juiced up.

00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:31.200
Like, my bad.

00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:33.440
Anyhow, then I got some home early.

00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:35.359
Trying to think.

00:21:35.519 --> 00:21:42.880
Dylan and I are having um fighting problems at the gym with some old ladies.

00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:44.720
So there's that drama.

00:21:44.880 --> 00:21:45.119
Yeah.

00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:47.839
Do you want to play the AJR album over this?

00:21:49.440 --> 00:21:50.240
Or under this?

00:21:50.559 --> 00:21:53.200
No, but I want you to to give your opinion on.

00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:55.519
So then what are we gonna talk about?

00:21:56.240 --> 00:21:58.400
Oh, we got plenty to talk about about.

00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:01.359
No, I meant like while the video is playing.

00:22:01.599 --> 00:22:03.519
We're gonna talk about the video and the song.

00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:07.039
Oh, well then for I was I was giving you filler information.

00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:07.680
Never mind.

00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:09.440
Oh, you really?

00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:10.720
Sorry, yeah.

00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:12.640
Alright, here comes.

00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:17.920
Um, let me turn the volume down a little bit though.

00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:20.160
Cause she's gonna be a little loud.

00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:22.480
Alright, ready?

00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:23.279
Mm-hmm.

00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:24.960
Oh well, here we go again.

00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:29.200
Let me know if that's 525, really, give me 30, make it 30 really given.

00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:29.759
No, that's okay.

00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:34.559
I love like the auctioneer thing in the beginning.

00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:35.440
Yeah.

00:22:36.079 --> 00:22:38.880
525, really, give me 30, make it 30, really.

00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:40.960
Dude, the beat on this thing is sick.

00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:41.440
I love it.

00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:42.559
We gotta get one of those.

00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:45.200
It kind of looks like um Adam's hip hop board.

00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:46.079
It does.

00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:48.400
This video Adam did that.

00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:50.559
This video was so well shot.

00:22:50.880 --> 00:22:51.200
Yeah.

00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:57.440
So they uh for everybody that's in the audience that's uh not watching and just listening with us.

00:22:58.000 --> 00:23:02.079
Uh this new AJR song is filmed in a bar.

00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:02.799
Yeah.

00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:05.759
Um and it reminds me of like Tears.

00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:09.119
It does.

00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:11.519
Congratulations.

00:23:13.279 --> 00:23:15.359
Or like a like a shitty TJI Friday.

00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:17.359
Oh what?

00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:19.519
Like a shitty TJI Friday.

00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:21.920
Yeah, I'm used to.

00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:24.880
Honestly, I think there's a little bar that looks like that in Ohio.

00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:31.119
And I should be so happy I could cry.

00:23:31.359 --> 00:23:33.279
Oh, this breakdown's so good.

00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:36.880
This is what a happy end looks like.

00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:43.599
Someone down in my hand.

00:23:44.720 --> 00:23:47.039
I love that they added the port too.

00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:53.680
Looking for an ad whatever.

00:23:55.200 --> 00:23:58.079
I like that the hat is just, you know, it's just part of the mouth.

00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:04.319
Yeah, have you noticed his uh his pin white t-shirt dude is it's got a heart on it now.

00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:07.279
Oh no, I can't come in here.

00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:17.519
Ah, it's on the green garden!

00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:25.200
And my whole life could sound like this.

00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:33.519
Um, I love that.

00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:38.400
Oh, it's so good.

00:24:43.039 --> 00:24:45.519
Chris also listened to the entire album.

00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:47.119
Yeah, did he cry?

00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:49.759
No, no, he doesn't even like them.

00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:52.640
He was like, eh, it's like Really?

00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:53.839
I love his voice.

00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:55.599
Yeah.

00:24:55.920 --> 00:25:00.240
Like it's such a clean, like, I'm a big fan of Yeah, absolutely.

00:25:02.720 --> 00:25:04.640
It's also super like a bad boy.

00:25:04.799 --> 00:25:16.319
Nobody's not gonna be like, I'll be number one.

00:25:16.559 --> 00:25:19.119
Drum the player's still hanging out with the drama.

00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:28.400
For the first time in years.

00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:30.319
But I need the window.

00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:36.559
Yeah.

00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:38.079
That'd be cool.

00:25:41.519 --> 00:25:43.039
Or at least like all the brats.

00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:46.160
And sound like this.

00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:49.839
Oh, that little piano breakdown.

00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:53.279
Don't turn around, kid.

00:25:53.680 --> 00:25:59.839
So I was talking to Lindy about the song and um trying to figure out.

00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:13.279
I think that this is gone is uh like the reprise for that one song that they had on it was called uh Come Hang Out.

00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:16.640
Where it's like Come Hang Out.

00:26:20.240 --> 00:26:22.400
Um, I think it's the reprise.

00:26:22.480 --> 00:26:26.400
I think the the chord structure is the same, and this is like the follow-up to it.

00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:28.240
Alright then.

00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:34.079
Oh, do so good.

00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:41.039
Just make it sound like that.

00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:42.640
I just love the auctioner part.

00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:44.079
I think I just I really love that.

00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:54.880
It's also crazy that like they do all of this on like three things, you know what I mean?

00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:59.759
Yeah, I mean what's crazy is that they produce the entire thing themselves.

00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:02.799
Start to finish, they do all of it on their own.

00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:03.599
Yeah.

00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:05.759
Jack of all trades.

00:27:06.160 --> 00:27:09.599
They hire these and tell them what to do.

00:27:09.839 --> 00:27:10.319
Yeah.

00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:14.640
And some they are saying about the shit out, dude.

00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:16.799
You know how much money they save doing that?

00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:18.319
Oh, I'm sure.

00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:20.799
Well, they also own their own label, too.

00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:22.799
Oh, I didn't know that.

00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:23.440
That's cool.

00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:25.519
Well, they did.

00:27:25.599 --> 00:27:27.680
I think they're signed to somebody now.

00:27:28.079 --> 00:27:33.519
Ah, but anyways, uh, that was uh that was the big goodbye.

00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:47.039
And for the audience, Taylor and I are going to do a special engagement where we sit down and listen to that album front to back, just the two of us, and dive in emotionally.

00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:49.599
So stay tuned for that.

00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:51.039
Um excited.

00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:53.039
That's gonna be on YouTube only.

00:27:53.119 --> 00:27:56.079
That is gonna be a uh live stream.

00:27:56.480 --> 00:27:57.599
No, we won't do it live.

00:27:57.680 --> 00:27:58.400
We won't do it live.

00:27:58.640 --> 00:27:59.279
I don't want to do that.

00:27:59.440 --> 00:27:59.920
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:05.119
No, no, no, it won't be it won't be a live stream, it'll just be a YouTube only show.

00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:07.599
Um, so yeah.

00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:13.200
Anyways, um, so Adam turned one.

00:28:13.519 --> 00:28:15.680
We talked about your Starbucks adventures.

00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:17.759
Tell me about this gym situation.

00:28:20.319 --> 00:28:21.680
Sorry, standby.

00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:24.559
Oh, she's laughing.

00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:26.960
No, I was so I was concerned.

00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:32.319
It sounded like a scary screen, but it's laughing.

00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:32.880
We're good.

00:28:33.039 --> 00:28:34.240
Okay, so gym situation.

00:28:34.319 --> 00:28:42.079
So Dylan and I have been going to the gym, and Dylan used to live in a different part of Florida, and then they moved to where we are now, right?

00:28:42.319 --> 00:28:48.240
Now the different part of Florida that he lived in had the same gym, it's like a like a gym chain situation.

00:28:48.559 --> 00:28:49.440
What's the name of it?

00:28:50.000 --> 00:28:51.359
Um, it's LA Fitness.

00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:52.640
Oh, okay.

00:28:53.440 --> 00:29:02.880
So, and with LA Fitness, you have a home gym, and then any other LA Fitness that you want to go to, you had to pay ten dollars to get to, which is crazy.

00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:04.559
That's that's crazy.

00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:07.519
Anywho, we signed up.

00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:15.599
I already had issues when we signed up because the guy like didn't talk to me, like he was just talking to Dylan.

00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:19.920
Like, Dylan came, like, we went in together and he was like, Hey, can you help me get her signed up?

00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:21.920
Like, we can't do it online, obviously, we have to do it here.

00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:24.240
And he was like, Oh, yeah, like no problem, blah blah blah blah blah.

00:29:24.880 --> 00:29:44.720
Takes me back, a lady was helping me, she was talking to me, like explaining everything to me, but he was only talking to Dylan, even when he was explaining like the facility, and Dylan has been to this gym before, he's had his membership since 2020, but even when he was explaining the facility, he was only talking to Dylan.

00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:47.519
And I was like, Okay, you know, whatever.

00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:54.160
I'm not gonna think about how that until he told Dylan, he said, What type of membership would you like her to have?

00:29:56.240 --> 00:30:01.279
Yeah, so that I was like, Well, that's what it's My credit card.

00:30:01.599 --> 00:30:02.799
It's my debit card.

00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:04.480
He's not paying for this.

00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:06.960
This is my membership.

00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:07.519
Yeah.

00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:09.680
Which is the reaction everyone should have.

00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:12.319
Dude, that is crazy.

00:30:12.400 --> 00:30:13.359
That's what he said.

00:30:13.599 --> 00:30:15.039
I was like, okay.

00:30:15.599 --> 00:30:19.680
Like, rugs me the wrong way, but sometimes I look too too far into things.

00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:20.640
So I said, okay, whatever.

00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:22.480
I was gonna no, that was not too far.

00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:23.920
Did Dylan fight him?

00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:26.480
No, he didn't say like he didn't realize.

00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:29.279
Oh, like he didn't even think twice about it.

00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:32.319
Well, I told him while we were walking, I was like, I didn't like how that was.

00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:35.119
And he was like, Well, maybe he didn't like mean anything by it.

00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:37.519
I think he just meant because I know more about the gym.

00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:41.680
And I said, asking you what type of membership you want me to have is crazy.

00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:43.039
Is this the 1950s?

00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:44.079
I don't think so.

00:30:44.400 --> 00:30:55.920
Dude, it's it's layered too, because it's like it's the idea of like he's deciding, he thinks that men should decide everything for women, right?

00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:06.079
There's that layer, but then it's also like asking what kind of membership he thinks that you should have insinuates like what do you think she should work on as far as her body?

00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:07.279
No, exactly.

00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:10.640
So yeah, so I was like, that's a wild thing.

00:31:10.799 --> 00:31:12.720
I was like, okay, but like whatever, right?

00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:14.000
The lady was really nice.

00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:18.319
I was like, oh, misogyny's insane, crazy, but whatever.

00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:21.599
So then he had also told Dylan, he said, Do you live here now?

00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:23.680
And Dylan was like, Yeah, I we live here.

00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:34.880
And he said, Do you want me to put a note in saying um that you want this to be your home gym so we can change it, so then you don't have to pay the ten dollars.

00:31:35.200 --> 00:31:37.440
And Dylan was like, Yeah, that actually would be great.

00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:38.000
Thank you.

00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:40.240
So this note was supposed to be in the here, right?

00:31:40.640 --> 00:31:44.079
Dylan went to the gym without me on numerous occasions.

00:31:44.240 --> 00:31:49.119
We had been there like 10-ish different times, nothing was said.

00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:50.799
He went to go the other day.

00:31:51.119 --> 00:31:59.519
This the I guess these two old ladies were really grouped in, like fully like yelling at him because this wasn't his home gym.

00:31:59.839 --> 00:32:01.920
And they said, You need to pay ten dollars.

00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:08.480
And he said, Oh, it should there should be a note in there that this was said, this was supposed to be changed.

00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:13.440
And they said, You have to come Monday through Friday between 8 a.m.

00:32:13.680 --> 00:32:14.880
and and 5 p.m.

00:32:15.119 --> 00:32:17.519
or something like that, while the manager is here to have him change it.

00:32:17.599 --> 00:32:19.680
And Dylan said, Yeah, it should have already been changed.

00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:25.839
There's a note in the file, fully like didn't believe it, accused him of sneaking it.

00:32:26.319 --> 00:32:31.279
He was like, I have been here multiple times, and they're like, Oh, you must have just snuck past.

00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:33.359
Where'd you go?

00:32:35.200 --> 00:32:42.319
I'm just he was like, he was like, You she was like, You must have been just sneaking past, like you must have been sneaking it.

00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:44.640
And he was like, I literally paid for the membership.

00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:46.799
What do you mean sneaking it?

00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:49.839
Like, anyhow, so it was this whole thing, they were really nasty.

00:32:51.359 --> 00:32:54.480
So we went in the the next day.

00:32:54.640 --> 00:32:57.920
We went to go to the gym together because he was like, Whatever, we'll see what's up.

00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:00.000
Like, I'll just use your guest pass.

00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:03.359
Tell me how we didn't even get up to the desk.

00:33:03.599 --> 00:33:06.640
She stands up and goes, I told you you couldn't be here.

00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:15.839
I told you that you had to come during this time, blah blah blah, like running her chunks, didn't even let us speak.

00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:23.519
Now there was a guy there who was there when we signed up, and this is the same guy that has been letting Dylan through because he knew the situation.

00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:25.519
Not that not the same guy you told him.

00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:26.480
Sure, sure, sure.

00:33:27.680 --> 00:33:29.279
It's a guy that was there, like witnessing it.

00:33:29.440 --> 00:33:31.680
So he remembered Dylan, he didn't have an issue with it.

00:33:32.000 --> 00:33:34.000
LA Fitness, get your shit together.

00:33:34.160 --> 00:33:35.200
I hope you hear this.

00:33:35.599 --> 00:33:36.799
LA fitness.

00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:40.640
First of all, I'm about to cancel my membership and his membership.

00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:42.480
Second of all, they should start working.

00:33:42.559 --> 00:33:51.920
You need to have people work on their customer service because this whole thing could have been avoided if they were just nice about it and they're like, hey, like we understand you like on our side, it's not changed.

00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:52.720
You know what I mean?

00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:55.680
Like, still ridiculous, still ridiculous.

00:33:56.240 --> 00:34:00.559
However, should have been anyhow, should have been handled a different way.

00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:03.279
Fully nuts, dude.

00:34:03.440 --> 00:34:06.720
Oh and it was like late.

00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:08.480
It was like 7, 8 p.m.

00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:11.039
Because we go to the gym like that's another thing, LA Fitness.

00:34:11.360 --> 00:34:13.760
Why is it on the weekends that you close at 6 p.m.?

00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:16.079
Who does that?

00:34:16.239 --> 00:34:16.800
That's crazy.

00:34:16.880 --> 00:34:17.199
Anywho.

00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:19.760
Wait, they're not even a 24-hour gym.

00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:21.519
No, they're not a 24-hour gym.

00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:22.239
What?

00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:23.679
What are you doing?

00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:28.800
Anywho, so we uh I went to go stay.

00:34:29.920 --> 00:34:31.280
I said, Wow, that's crazy.

00:34:31.360 --> 00:34:33.199
I had to deal with stupid people at work.

00:34:33.360 --> 00:34:35.280
I was at work at 4 30 this morning.

00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:37.199
I've been up, I have not taken a nap.

00:34:37.440 --> 00:34:38.000
Let's go.

00:34:38.079 --> 00:34:39.920
We'll go toe-to-toe right now.

00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:42.559
And Dylan goes, I'm sorry, ma'am.

00:34:43.039 --> 00:34:43.679
I have a job.

00:34:44.239 --> 00:34:47.280
He said, Those days, you said I actually worked during those days.

00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:50.960
And I very seldom watch him get an attitude.

00:34:51.360 --> 00:34:54.880
He was so mad, rightfully so.

00:34:55.280 --> 00:34:58.000
So then she said, Well, you have to pay.

00:34:58.159 --> 00:35:00.000
He said, I'm using her guest pass.

00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:02.079
Then she had a problem with that.

00:35:02.559 --> 00:35:03.599
I said, That's crazy.

00:35:03.679 --> 00:35:05.360
He's using my guest pass.

00:35:06.400 --> 00:35:08.559
Well, you need to make sure that it's filled out properly.

00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:09.199
I said, That's fine.

00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:12.880
I'm sure this gentleman is going to help us fill it out because that's who we were talking to.

00:35:13.119 --> 00:35:15.039
Anywho, so then she left.

00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:16.400
It was the end of her shift.

00:35:16.480 --> 00:35:21.599
She left, and the guy tells us he was like, Hey, like, you know, she means well, she just takes this very seriously.

00:35:21.840 --> 00:35:22.400
I don't know.

00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:26.079
No, I said, absolutely not.

00:35:26.559 --> 00:35:28.320
He is great though, I will say.

00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:30.719
He is amazing, he is so nice.

00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:36.320
He fully took care of the situation, set up a gas pass for Dylan, and then today when we went in, he remembers us now.

00:35:36.480 --> 00:35:40.559
I scanned, he didn't even ask to see Dylan's name, he just said have a nice work at Austin Laker.

00:35:41.679 --> 00:35:42.320
Do you know?

00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:44.239
Did you grab this lady's name?

00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:47.199
No, so I completely forgot.

00:35:47.280 --> 00:35:49.039
I didn't even think about it because she was like leaving.

00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:50.320
They don't wear name tags.

00:35:51.679 --> 00:35:53.199
So I want this woman.

00:35:53.280 --> 00:35:57.599
I people I want I want her and the other lady.

00:35:57.760 --> 00:35:59.840
Oh, and then the guy was asking.

00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:08.480
He said, Well, what is the the guy who um what was it?

00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:11.519
The guy who helped you guys, do you remember what his name was?

00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:14.239
I said, No, this was a month ago.

00:36:14.639 --> 00:36:16.800
Oh like two and a half weeks ago.

00:36:17.119 --> 00:36:19.199
I was like, I couldn't tell you.

00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:22.800
Like, I can pick him out of the lineup, and he also he comes in to Starbucks every day.

00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:24.320
I can literally tell you his Starbucks.

00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:28.800
He comes in every day, and I'm like, I have no idea what his name is.

00:36:29.039 --> 00:36:34.800
So it turns out I ended up getting his name because he came into Starbucks through the cafe, and I'm pretty sure it's him.

00:36:34.880 --> 00:36:35.599
This isn't the point.

00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:37.599
So he was like, Well, can you describe him to me?

00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:42.639
So, like, we're trying to describe like what he was wearing, what he usually wears when we're there, like he had a goatee.

00:36:42.719 --> 00:36:43.920
And the guy's like, I need more.

00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:46.320
And Dylan was like, Do you want me to say that he was black?

00:36:46.480 --> 00:36:48.639
Like, is that what you're looking for?

00:36:49.280 --> 00:36:54.960
And he was like, Yeah, like he was a tall black guy, he wears compressions, he has a goatee, and he goes, Well, that doesn't help.

00:36:55.039 --> 00:36:56.719
We have two tall black guys.

00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:03.840
I said, Okay, and Dylan was like, He's he's he was like, He's a light skinned black guy.

00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:09.039
I don't know how else, and it was so funny, isn't it?

00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:14.400
So funny, I I do it too, and I I try, I think it's like out of respect.

00:37:14.559 --> 00:37:17.039
I don't I mean, I guess so.

00:37:17.679 --> 00:37:29.119
No, I mean like like the skating around, you know, yeah, no, but like we weren't trying, like we gave so much detail that I feel like it was just trying to get it out of us.

00:37:29.440 --> 00:37:34.480
But yeah, I do that too, though, where like I'll skate around like literally, yeah.

00:37:34.639 --> 00:37:44.159
Trying not to say it because also honestly, if you're listening and uh you're a person of color, um, please comment and tell me, does that make me a bad person?

00:37:44.559 --> 00:37:46.079
Like, I don't know, genuinely.

00:37:46.159 --> 00:37:46.639
I don't know.

00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:48.559
I think it depends on the situation.

00:37:48.719 --> 00:37:53.519
I think if it matters in the situation, do you know what I mean?

00:37:53.840 --> 00:37:55.760
I only do it out of respect.

00:37:55.840 --> 00:37:56.400
That's my thing.

00:37:56.719 --> 00:37:57.599
Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying.

00:37:58.000 --> 00:38:03.599
Because I wouldn't describe like I wouldn't describe a white person and then be like, you know, the white guy.

00:38:03.679 --> 00:38:05.440
Like, you know, oh, I do.

00:38:06.400 --> 00:38:13.679
Like, I think it's out of respect that I'm like, well, if I wouldn't do that for a white person, I shouldn't do that for a person of color either.

00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:16.320
Yeah, I see it.

00:38:16.559 --> 00:38:20.639
I like I said, I think it depends on the situation, like if it's necessary.

00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:25.280
Like, I I hear stories and they're like, oh, and they were white, or oh, they were black, or they were Hispanic.

00:38:25.360 --> 00:38:27.039
I'm like, that didn't add anything to sort.

00:38:27.199 --> 00:38:28.639
I didn't need to know that.

00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:37.519
But I have I have had people um call me out and be like, the black guy, and I'm like, Yeah, yeah, like uh same thing.

00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:42.639
You like you're like, I gave you so many other details about persons to me.

00:38:42.719 --> 00:38:48.000
It actually says that the person who says that only sees the color, yeah, yeah.

00:38:48.239 --> 00:38:49.199
So well, we were allowed to be able to do that.

00:38:49.360 --> 00:38:52.559
Either way, people people uh comments, please.

00:38:52.639 --> 00:38:53.599
I I'm very curious.

00:38:53.920 --> 00:38:55.599
And we were allowed to learn as a person.

00:38:56.000 --> 00:39:09.679
Um there was the lady who helped me, and she was so nice, so nice, but the only physical description I could give to her is she had like botched lip filler and a fake butt.

00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:11.679
And I know that sounds so mean.

00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:14.960
This is the this is the bad lady, no, no, no.

00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:23.519
The lady who was so nice who signed me up, and she was so kind, and I was like, and I didn't want to say that because I'm like, that sounds awful, and I don't mean it.

00:39:23.599 --> 00:39:26.400
That's just my observation, you know?

00:39:27.039 --> 00:39:32.239
Anywho, so I had um I told him I said I can literally point out where her desk was.

00:39:32.400 --> 00:39:33.599
Like, I can't walk you over to it.

00:39:33.760 --> 00:39:35.039
I don't remember their names.

00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:39.920
Anywho, yeah, so Dylan's gonna go on Tuesday, see what he needs to do to get it figured out.

00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:44.320
Um, he also I think is just going to get a different gym membership collectively.

00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:46.239
I think we might both get a different gym.

00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:50.559
Like a planet fitness or something, at least a 24-hour gym.

00:39:50.800 --> 00:39:52.559
But like find a 24-hour gym.

00:39:52.880 --> 00:39:57.119
So we're gonna go to one where Dylan's sister's boyfriend goes to, I think.

00:39:57.360 --> 00:40:00.239
And it's more of like a like a family-owned gym.

00:40:01.599 --> 00:40:02.559
Describe him.

00:40:03.199 --> 00:40:04.480
Um, he's a white guy.

00:40:06.159 --> 00:40:18.239
Um, yeah, no, so I think we're gonna go there because the whole reason that I was going we were going to this gym is because it was so close um to my work, like it's literally across the street from where I work.

00:40:18.639 --> 00:40:21.360
So I was like, oh, I can go after work, but then I'm so tired.

00:40:21.440 --> 00:40:22.480
I'm like, I don't want to go.

00:40:22.559 --> 00:40:24.079
I'd rather go with Dylan, anyways.

00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:26.480
Like it being in a gym alone gives me weird vibes.

00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:27.679
I don't want to do that.

00:40:27.920 --> 00:40:29.760
Um I have sound effects now.

00:40:30.320 --> 00:40:31.440
That's exciting.

00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:32.400
Yeah.

00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:33.280
Yeah.

00:40:33.599 --> 00:40:35.360
I like I like sound effects.

00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:37.119
Since our soundboard doesn't work.

00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:38.639
Do you hear them when I play them?

00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:39.440
Yeah.

00:40:42.000 --> 00:40:42.639
Yeah.

00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:44.719
I have to play with it more.

00:40:44.800 --> 00:40:47.679
I I I can I can add sounds to this one too.

00:40:48.079 --> 00:40:48.400
That's fun.

00:40:48.559 --> 00:40:52.320
And it's and it's built into StreamYard, so I don't have to have like a separate thing.

00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:54.480
Yeah, it's pretty pretty dope.

00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:55.760
That's super insane.

00:40:57.199 --> 00:41:03.119
So I want to talk about uh some new music stuff going on.

00:41:03.199 --> 00:41:06.159
So I I obviously I want to talk about the AJR stuff.

00:41:06.239 --> 00:41:10.880
Like I think that this new album is incredible, it's deep, it's raw.

00:41:11.119 --> 00:41:20.320
Um, I think that uh this is the most that those three talented men has ever given us of them.

00:41:20.639 --> 00:41:23.039
Um very, very personal.

00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:27.760
Um but it's it's just it's really well written.

00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:32.880
I would say as a diehard AJR fan, it's not for everybody.

00:41:33.039 --> 00:41:51.119
Um, but if you can appreciate their story, not their story of like them being musicians, but like their personal story and what they've had to overcome the past couple of years, um, this album is truly a work of art.

00:41:51.280 --> 00:41:57.519
Um even even that being said, that song I just showed you is just it's so catchy.

00:41:57.679 --> 00:41:58.800
It's really good, yeah.

00:41:59.039 --> 00:42:02.719
Um, but the other ones are all very deep.

00:42:03.280 --> 00:42:04.639
Uh besides Betty.

00:42:04.719 --> 00:42:11.920
Betty's really just a fun song, but um but I also want to talk about this Sabrina Carpenter issue.

00:42:13.440 --> 00:42:14.960
This shoe is crazy.

00:42:16.079 --> 00:42:22.400
Somehow I heard another podcast say that she was uh something plant.

00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:24.559
What's it called?

00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:28.880
Yeah, like a music industry implant.

00:42:30.559 --> 00:42:31.519
She's not real.

00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:37.039
I don't I don't disagree.

00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:41.679
I they also said that her parents are Scientologists, and I don't know how to treat them.

00:42:42.000 --> 00:42:42.719
I don't I don't believe that.

00:42:42.800 --> 00:42:43.360
I don't believe that.

00:42:43.440 --> 00:42:44.239
Yeah, I didn't look at it.

00:42:44.719 --> 00:42:50.239
I don't I wouldn't go as far as to say that she's a plant for the music industry.

00:42:50.880 --> 00:42:54.800
I think she is a product of the music industry.

00:42:55.039 --> 00:42:55.440
Yeah.

00:42:55.599 --> 00:43:03.519
I think that she didn't start off that way, but has very, very much turned into it.

00:43:03.840 --> 00:43:05.280
Um yeah.

00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:07.519
Yes and no.

00:43:07.920 --> 00:43:10.239
I I agree when I kind of disagree.

00:43:10.559 --> 00:43:19.440
Let me give my my opinion, my my full opinion musically, and then we'll have this discourse.

00:43:19.760 --> 00:43:22.880
Um her first album.

00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:24.320
No, sorry.

00:43:24.559 --> 00:43:27.199
The first album that I listened to.

00:43:27.519 --> 00:43:28.159
Short and sweet.

00:43:28.320 --> 00:43:29.599
Short and sweet.

00:43:31.119 --> 00:43:34.880
It was very pop-heavy, it's radio pop heavy, right?

00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:36.719
Yeah, we all agree.

00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:52.880
That has espresso on it, and it has um Juno on it, and it has uh what was that other big one that everybody was obsessed with?

00:43:53.039 --> 00:43:53.519
That's on there.

00:43:53.920 --> 00:43:56.960
Espresso and oh hang on, I can't remember the name.

00:43:57.199 --> 00:43:58.559
Yeah, I can't either.

00:43:58.880 --> 00:44:01.280
It's so funny because I think I just have it up.

00:44:01.599 --> 00:44:04.639
It's the one with uh Jenno Ortega in the video.

00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:09.599
Yeah, and I can't remember taste.

00:44:09.760 --> 00:44:11.599
Oh, and it has please, please, please.

00:44:11.920 --> 00:44:12.800
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:14.079
How did I forget that?

00:44:14.320 --> 00:44:25.280
So even despite that album to me being pinnacle music industry driven pop.

00:44:25.679 --> 00:44:31.119
Yes, oh absolutely songs, please, please, please.

00:44:31.840 --> 00:44:34.719
Despite how I feel about it, is a catchy tune.

00:44:34.960 --> 00:44:37.440
Yeah, espresso is a catchy tune.

00:44:37.760 --> 00:44:43.039
Taste, I genuinely just like because of the artistic take of the music video.

00:44:43.199 --> 00:44:45.920
Uh you like that her and Jenna Ortega make out.

00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:48.880
No, honestly, that was the worst part for me.

00:44:49.119 --> 00:44:52.320
Um, I'm not a f I'm not a fan of Jenna Ortega, I'm really not.

00:44:52.400 --> 00:44:55.039
I I don't I don't find her attractive.

00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:57.599
Um, do you like her as an actor though?

00:44:57.760 --> 00:44:58.400
Like as an actress?

00:44:58.559 --> 00:45:00.880
I think she's a fine.

00:45:01.119 --> 00:45:05.760
I I don't think she's a bad actress or actor, however she prefers to be pronounced.

00:45:05.840 --> 00:45:08.320
Yeah, I don't think she's bad by any means.

00:45:08.559 --> 00:45:12.800
I think she keeps getting put in bad roles, which is not her fault.

00:45:13.039 --> 00:45:15.760
Yeah, I think she's a great Wednesday Adams.

00:45:16.079 --> 00:45:19.679
Yeah, she's being forced into that role though.

00:45:20.320 --> 00:45:29.840
Similarly to the girl from uh Parks and Rec, that yeah after that role, she just played that same character in other things.

00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:32.079
So, like, I that's not her fault.

00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:33.920
That's not Jenna Ortega's fault.

00:45:34.079 --> 00:45:40.320
Yeah, I think that she was okay in that Death of a Unicorn movie.

00:45:40.639 --> 00:45:47.679
Um that was a really fun movie for me, yeah, but she wasn't what what solidified that movie, to be honest.

00:45:47.760 --> 00:45:48.719
It was Paul Rudd.

00:45:48.800 --> 00:45:54.400
I felt like Rudd uh is just a far more elite actor than her.

00:45:54.719 --> 00:45:57.920
I mean, he's also like in his 40s, for sure, yeah.

00:45:58.400 --> 00:45:59.039
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:45:59.360 --> 00:46:01.679
Like 75 movies or something.

00:46:02.480 --> 00:46:11.119
Yeah, like but I do feel that um unfortunately, she just keeps getting cast as the same person, and that's not her fault.

00:46:11.440 --> 00:46:23.920
Um but I felt like the artistic vision on that uh music video was very fun, it was a very fun throwback to the 80s horror, and yeah, I liked it.

00:46:24.000 --> 00:46:24.639
You know what I mean?

00:46:24.719 --> 00:46:26.159
I I enjoyed it.

00:46:26.639 --> 00:46:28.800
Um please, please, please.

00:46:28.880 --> 00:46:30.159
The music video sucks.

00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:32.079
Um, I don't know if I've ever watched it.

00:46:32.159 --> 00:46:33.679
I'm gonna be 100% real with you.

00:46:33.920 --> 00:46:39.920
I did a deep dive because of this new album, and and there's a lot that I have to say about it.

00:46:40.159 --> 00:46:47.679
Uh espresso, I feel like is your the and that this is where I'm this is where I'm getting to.

00:46:48.320 --> 00:46:54.400
Espresso is the music industry's golden goose.

00:46:56.400 --> 00:46:57.440
Hold on, hear me out.

00:46:57.599 --> 00:46:58.400
Hear me out.

00:46:59.119 --> 00:47:07.280
The music video is scantily clad, it's clearly sexual and full of innuendos.

00:47:07.760 --> 00:47:15.039
Um, unfortunately, provocativeness is what pushes our society forward.

00:47:15.519 --> 00:47:20.239
Uh, the more provocative, the more the younger people gravitate towards it, right?

00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:23.360
So that's just the society that we live in.

00:47:23.440 --> 00:47:23.840
You can argue.

00:47:24.320 --> 00:47:27.679
You you say that, but everyone threw a fit.

00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:29.280
No, not everyone.

00:47:29.519 --> 00:47:32.880
Specific types of people threw a fit, not which is crazy.

00:47:33.119 --> 00:47:41.039
If everyone threw a fit, this album wouldn't be the number one in the Billboard 100 for the last three weeks or whatever, but I digress.

00:47:41.360 --> 00:47:54.400
Um, we're getting to that album, but right now, talking about espresso, I think that the music industry and unfortunately, Sabrina Carpenter saw the success that espresso brought.

00:47:54.639 --> 00:47:55.119
Yeah.

00:47:55.440 --> 00:47:59.679
And she was already kind of getting heat for her live performances.

00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:18.800
And I feel like between the heat, the controversy, and trying to kind of shove it in people's faces and be like, I'm gonna do what I want, fuck you, um, pushed her more and more into what the music industry was going after, anyways.

00:48:18.880 --> 00:48:19.519
You know what I mean?

00:48:19.679 --> 00:48:39.760
I felt like she didn't want to become this person, but with everything kind of coming at her in the way that it has the last 12 months, yeah, that this now new album called Man Child is exactly what the music industry has wanted.

00:48:39.920 --> 00:48:51.679
And like, yeah, it's not even it's not even the the provocativeness or the eccentricness of like talking about sex and how she talks about sex.

00:48:51.920 --> 00:48:54.159
Like, that's a dime a dozen.

00:48:54.239 --> 00:48:57.199
You can find 50 million people that do that every day.

00:48:57.920 --> 00:49:00.880
It's the shitty music element part of it.

00:49:01.039 --> 00:49:02.320
It's not good writing.

00:49:02.559 --> 00:49:03.840
It's not good writing.

00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:19.760
It is let me push you all of the things that are gonna draw people to be like, you're either gonna be like, oh my god, I love this, or oh my god, I'm going to burn down a church because Sabrina Carpenter is too sexy.

00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:25.519
Like that I get she also something to understand, and I might get heat for sending this.

00:49:25.760 --> 00:49:27.440
I think she is very clever.

00:49:27.599 --> 00:49:29.360
I think that she is very funny.

00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:36.239
Like when you listen to some like the song, like like Man Child, and I said this from the beginning, I don't think it's a well-written song.

00:49:36.320 --> 00:49:36.719
I think that's a good thing.

00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:39.440
I think that the music video is better than the song.

00:49:39.599 --> 00:49:40.960
I think it's a funny music video.

00:49:41.360 --> 00:49:46.800
That's like I think that what she says is funny, but she's not a songwriter.

00:49:47.039 --> 00:49:48.559
No, do you know what I mean?

00:49:48.960 --> 00:49:49.920
She is though.

00:49:50.159 --> 00:49:51.039
You think so?

00:49:51.280 --> 00:49:58.800
Yes, because I at first I I so I listened to her first ever album.

00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:00.639
Don't ask me what the name of it was.

00:50:00.800 --> 00:50:01.920
I listened to two songs on it.

00:50:02.239 --> 00:50:07.039
Um, it is called Eyes Wide Open question mark.

00:50:07.280 --> 00:50:21.039
I listened to two songs on it, and the writing style and elements, granted, she was much younger, and she was a Disney But the writing style and elements that went into that album.

00:50:21.280 --> 00:50:22.400
Yeah, eyes wide open.

00:50:22.800 --> 00:50:26.320
She is a songwriter, and she's not like a great songwriter.

00:50:26.400 --> 00:50:27.519
I'm not gonna say that.

00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:29.599
Well, no, that's that's what I'm saying.

00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:40.079
Like she's a solid songwriter, yeah, and it doesn't show in the bullshit she just put out, which brings me to tears.

00:50:40.559 --> 00:50:43.280
Probably the worst song ever written.

00:50:43.519 --> 00:50:54.000
That's I throw it right up there with WAP as far as like it's just dirty to be dirty.

00:50:54.480 --> 00:51:01.599
That song is just meant to be like, hey, all of you Christian people that were in an uproar over my album cover.

00:51:01.760 --> 00:51:02.559
Guess what?

00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:03.920
Here you go.

00:51:04.880 --> 00:51:09.119
And honestly, though, but it's just to get that conversation going.

00:51:09.360 --> 00:51:10.719
That's all it's for.

00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:25.280
It's for the discourse, it's for the the camaraderie or not not camaraderie, that's the opposite, the combativeness of these two sides, people who are more conservative and people who are not.

00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:30.000
We're not gonna use that other word because people get in trouble for saying things.

00:51:30.320 --> 00:51:34.719
Um, you're just pushing those two people against each other.

00:51:34.880 --> 00:51:45.760
This song is not meant to do anything else, and there's no one who can come on here and truly argue with me that this song is anything but that.

00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:47.679
It's just I like it.

00:51:48.079 --> 00:51:49.360
Sure, you can like it.

00:51:49.519 --> 00:51:50.239
Like, that's my thing.

00:51:50.320 --> 00:51:55.199
Like, I never said that it was like a a cra I yeah, I mean, I felt that way with short and sweet too.

00:51:55.280 --> 00:51:56.239
I just like the music.

00:51:56.400 --> 00:51:58.320
Yeah, you I like it, I bop to it.

00:51:58.639 --> 00:51:59.440
I think it's a good time.

00:51:59.599 --> 00:52:01.920
Yeah, like it, anyone can like it.

00:52:02.079 --> 00:52:05.760
Yeah, anyone can come and say that it's catchy, anyone can have their opinion.

00:52:05.920 --> 00:52:07.280
This is my opinion.

00:52:07.440 --> 00:52:11.679
Um, yeah, no, I don't think I don't think on any of the albums.

00:52:11.840 --> 00:52:15.119
I don't no Juno, I like how Juno is written.

00:52:15.440 --> 00:52:16.719
It's it's a solid, yeah.

00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:18.880
I'll give Juno's a solid album.

00:52:19.440 --> 00:52:22.400
I would even say espresso is solidly written.

00:52:22.559 --> 00:52:28.800
Yeah, but it's written, it's a pop song, like it was written for this purpose, and it served that purpose.

00:52:28.960 --> 00:52:39.679
Yeah, um, like I said, I think that taste, like the art direction, like she is an artistic person, she's a creative, like like she has talent, yeah.

00:52:39.920 --> 00:52:46.239
But this album in particular is the void of talent, it's just her controversy.

00:52:46.800 --> 00:52:54.239
What really bothers me is she I think is an incredible singer, and and this is why.

00:52:55.599 --> 00:53:14.639
Her the past two albums have been like her higher voice, but you listened to her first album, and like her lower voice and like her, and I know talking voices and singing voices are two different things, like I'm well aware of this, but like I don't know if you saw clips, I she is an incredible performer too.

00:53:15.199 --> 00:53:19.519
Like, she sings, and there's a lot of performers performers out there that just lip sync, right?

00:53:19.599 --> 00:53:20.639
Like, we all know this.

00:53:21.280 --> 00:53:37.519
She sings her music, and she did a cover of It's Raining Men, and it was incredible, and everyone was like, Oh, we didn't know that she could do this, her lower register, we need more songs like this.

00:53:37.679 --> 00:53:39.280
Where did this Sabrina come from?

00:53:39.360 --> 00:53:43.679
And it's all because all of you have pushed her into this box.

00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:45.679
Do you know what I mean?

00:53:45.920 --> 00:53:58.960
Like, she doesn't get to do the lower register, she doesn't get to experience she doesn't get to experiment and give her actual talents, and that's where that's where I'm coming from.

00:53:59.039 --> 00:54:08.320
On like, I do think that she is a music industry plant in the sense of like yeah, they have built her as a product now, to be, yeah.

00:54:08.559 --> 00:54:10.960
She is a Hollywood product, yeah.

00:54:11.440 --> 00:54:15.199
And whether or not she agrees is up to her.

00:54:15.679 --> 00:54:20.559
Um but the masses are seeing it, it's it's hard to argue.

00:54:20.800 --> 00:54:22.159
Um, no, I agree.

00:54:22.400 --> 00:54:27.039
I'll tell you this, everyone that's listening and Sabrina Carpenter fans that are listening.

00:54:27.119 --> 00:54:37.039
I hope you understand that I'm coming from a place of just a genuine music enthusiast and examining it for what it is musically.

00:54:37.280 --> 00:54:40.239
And I'm a Sabrina girly, I'm a Sabrina fan.

00:54:40.480 --> 00:55:00.159
But what I will say is the message that I I am in the scene as far as like talking to business owners and uh record store owners and and musicians, and what they're calling this album is just the filler to get through to the next Taylor Swift album.

00:55:00.320 --> 00:55:01.760
It's the same audience.

00:55:01.840 --> 00:55:09.039
They're they're both of those art artists are captivating or capturing the same audience, yeah, which is sad.

00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:18.079
And her Man Child album is just the filler for everyone to get through to the new Taylor Swift album, but that's coming from the record companies.

00:55:18.719 --> 00:55:19.360
That's what I'm saying.

00:55:19.440 --> 00:55:20.880
That's from the people that are selling this stuff.

00:55:20.960 --> 00:55:24.800
They're like, Yeah, I got in 30 copies, we moved four of them.

00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:29.519
We'll probably end up shipping half of them back because just filler.

00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:33.679
Which is sad because she is so musically talented.

00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:36.239
Absolutely, she she deserves.

00:55:36.880 --> 00:55:38.800
She needs to take a break.

00:55:39.119 --> 00:55:45.280
She needs to take a break, yeah, and get rid of whoever it is that's managing her.

00:55:45.599 --> 00:55:51.519
Because she and like I knew her beforehand because I watched Girl Meets World.

00:55:51.760 --> 00:55:54.559
I knew her music before she popped off.

00:55:54.719 --> 00:55:58.800
Um, and then she opened for Taylor Swift, and then everyone was like, Who is this?

00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:00.079
You know what I mean?

00:56:00.159 --> 00:56:04.239
And then they put her on this whole pedestal.

00:56:05.119 --> 00:56:09.599
And I agree that she I think there was also pressure to get this album out.

00:56:09.760 --> 00:56:12.800
Yes, because she's she's at her high point, yeah.

00:56:12.960 --> 00:56:14.880
So she's like, I need to get another.

00:56:15.599 --> 00:56:18.960
If you're not out, if you're not making content, you're not gonna be relevant.

00:56:19.199 --> 00:56:24.559
I know, which is so sad, and it's like it's the reason I put this show out every week.

00:56:24.880 --> 00:56:26.320
And like, I like I get it.

00:56:26.480 --> 00:56:32.639
Not everybody can be Adele, not everybody can be Taylor Swift, you know what I mean, and take those breaks and those times in between.

00:56:32.800 --> 00:56:34.000
Like, I get that.

00:56:34.559 --> 00:56:37.199
Um you can though, you can.

00:56:37.679 --> 00:57:07.039
If you're if you're developing the right audience, you can that's the issue, and that's that's where my truly that's where my issue with her lies, and and I know she's never gonna hear this, but if she were to, Sabrina, my issue with you is that you're not worrying about the audience that you're developing, yeah like you can have longevity in this business if you cultivate the right audience.

00:57:07.280 --> 00:57:11.360
Yeah, Taylor Swift cultivated the right audience, yeah.

00:57:11.599 --> 00:57:24.800
Adele, uh Beyoncé, the Beatle, and she also she's also like I'm just saying they cultivated the right audience at the right time.

00:57:25.199 --> 00:57:25.760
Exactly.

00:57:26.079 --> 00:57:31.599
If she puts in the right work, yeah, that audience will follow.

00:57:31.920 --> 00:57:33.679
And she's in the same room.

00:57:33.840 --> 00:57:35.760
Well, no, I don't like Triple Room.

00:57:36.000 --> 00:57:36.559
Never mind.

00:57:36.880 --> 00:57:40.079
I was gonna say, like, she's like 25, 26.

00:57:40.480 --> 00:57:41.039
You know what I mean?

00:57:41.119 --> 00:57:42.079
She's so young.

00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:45.599
That like not in the music industry though.

00:57:45.679 --> 00:57:56.159
That's I know, but but for her to just like pop off like that, like to have her music beforehand and then to have her pop off, like I don't know.

00:57:56.400 --> 00:57:59.039
Like to me, she's still so young.

00:57:59.199 --> 00:58:02.000
And that was my thing with Chaperone and Olivia Rodrigo too.

00:58:02.559 --> 00:58:06.960
Or like you guys are so like you're just trying to develop her sound, you know what I mean?

00:58:07.199 --> 00:58:12.400
Like, I feel like this is her first time with one so much fame, right?

00:58:12.719 --> 00:58:19.199
Like, so there's that, and then also like with I'm sure a big record label.

00:58:19.360 --> 00:58:26.320
I mean, I never looked into all of that, but it's like she went from being a like a Disney music star, right?

00:58:26.480 --> 00:58:35.599
And then having her her little albums in between, like Taylor Swift came out the gate and then had, do you know what I mean?

00:58:36.079 --> 00:58:44.239
Like, had the big record label started doing those shows so early to be able to work up to where she is.

00:58:44.639 --> 00:58:56.639
Well, and I think that's the issue that we keep talking about in the music industry, and it's an issue that I'm finding more and more artists um not willing to have that conversation.

00:58:57.039 --> 00:59:02.159
But there is an issue in the industry right now, and it's accessibility.

00:59:02.480 --> 00:59:09.440
Yeah, you you can go to bed a nobody and wake up a somebody, yeah.

00:59:09.760 --> 00:59:17.760
And that accessibility does not build and cultivate the right artist.

00:59:17.920 --> 00:59:19.280
Like, yeah, I agree.

00:59:19.840 --> 00:59:24.000
You're not getting an audience that's gonna stand by you for the next 30 years.

00:59:24.159 --> 00:59:30.320
There are going to be some people, you are going to build like like you're gonna have an audience, you know what I mean?

00:59:30.639 --> 00:59:36.079
But it will dwindle over time, you're gonna have that spike and it will dwindle over time.

00:59:36.320 --> 00:59:49.440
Yeah, you don't have that with the Beatles and ACDC and Led Zeppelin and Queen and Pink Floyd, and I can continue going on and on, Aerosmith, I mean, stained.

00:59:49.760 --> 00:59:59.840
Like there are so many artists that are they just they did the right thing at the right time.

01:00:00.239 --> 01:00:03.599
Time and a lot of it is luck, but a lot of it's hard work.

01:00:04.159 --> 01:00:07.920
And I'm not saying that these people aren't working hard.

01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:09.840
I'm not saying that they're not hardworking artists.

01:00:10.159 --> 01:00:13.440
No, it's just like you But it's night and day.

01:00:13.519 --> 01:00:17.519
Like yeah, like you like they are over sensation.

01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:19.039
That's what I was gonna say.

01:00:19.119 --> 01:00:30.239
It's they had time to work up, develop their sound, like find their audience, find their niche, do all these things, and and people are just waking up.

01:00:30.320 --> 01:00:38.639
I mean, literally, Olivia Rodrigo had one hit, and then she is now a major pop star.

01:00:39.360 --> 01:00:42.559
And it's like and and it's happening to people so young.

01:00:43.039 --> 01:00:49.280
But the thing is, is like the diehard Olivia fans will tell you that no, she's been working at this for like 10 years.

01:00:49.440 --> 01:00:50.079
You know what I mean?

01:00:50.159 --> 01:00:59.840
Like, like those diehard fans were there at the beginning, and I'm not saying that their their opinions are valid, like they were there, they existed.

01:01:00.400 --> 01:01:04.079
But there's a difference between the drops.

01:01:04.239 --> 01:01:13.760
Yeah, there's a difference between playing like shows that like open mic nights, and you know what I mean, like things like that.

01:01:13.840 --> 01:01:22.719
Like, that's to then the next day wake up and be like, Oh, I have all these fans, and now I'm going to make an entire tour and I'm going to sell up stadiums.

01:01:23.039 --> 01:01:32.880
Well, that that's my the other issue, in my opinion, is it's become less about the content, yeah, more about the image.

01:01:33.199 --> 01:01:34.480
And I hate that.

01:01:34.639 --> 01:01:38.960
And that that's been the music industry for the last years.

01:01:39.199 --> 01:01:47.599
Yeah, it has slowly become less about the content and more about what is the image that you are going to portray.

01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:50.960
Yeah, how can we market what you look like?

01:01:51.199 --> 01:01:53.679
Yeah, and that sucks.

01:01:53.840 --> 01:02:01.920
You see very, very few artists that come out with some real deep shit that can withstand the test of time.

01:02:02.079 --> 01:02:09.199
Lewis Capaldi, I would say, is like an artist who can withstand the test of time with his writing.

01:02:09.519 --> 01:02:12.400
I with that, I was gonna say Alex Warren too.

01:02:12.480 --> 01:02:13.440
I don't know if you've looked at the world.

01:02:13.679 --> 01:02:18.000
Warren's a great drama going on right now.

01:02:18.239 --> 01:02:18.800
Yeah.

01:02:19.039 --> 01:02:23.039
Um, I would say uh that one guy that you like, Khalid.

01:02:23.760 --> 01:02:25.519
Yes, I think it's Khaled.

01:02:25.679 --> 01:02:29.440
I say I say Khalid because it's it I don't know, to me it's better.

01:02:29.519 --> 01:02:32.079
But I think it's I don't know because I don't listen to it.

01:02:32.800 --> 01:02:37.679
But I I from what I agree I've listened to, yeah, he is going to withstand the test of time.

01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:41.679
Like yeah, because he I mean he literally has maybe four albums.

01:02:41.920 --> 01:02:53.440
There are just certain people who will withstand it, but I I just think that pop music as a whole is going so far south.

01:02:53.679 --> 01:02:54.639
Yeah, I agree.

01:02:54.880 --> 01:03:03.840
And I think that this particular Sabrina Carpenter album just feeds into that cesspool of the ether, and it doesn't stand out.

01:03:04.480 --> 01:03:09.840
And I am not a Sabrina fan, but I did do the work, I did listen, I didn't.

01:03:10.159 --> 01:03:13.039
I also I mean, I am a Sabrina fan, and I agree.

01:03:13.199 --> 01:03:16.320
It's not something that stands out, like it's not something totally different.

01:03:16.639 --> 01:03:18.079
I said that was our last album.

01:03:18.239 --> 01:03:19.440
It's a fun listen.

01:03:19.599 --> 01:03:21.119
I also love pop music.

01:03:21.280 --> 01:03:22.000
We all know this.

01:03:22.159 --> 01:03:23.920
I love music that sounds the same.

01:03:24.559 --> 01:03:34.320
It it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside, so I try to look for that same sound, but it's not something that's like and and for anyone who wants to attack me, please.

01:03:34.400 --> 01:03:41.199
I do welcome it, but um understand that I also listen to super shitty music.

01:03:41.280 --> 01:03:42.559
I'd be the first one to tell you.

01:03:42.800 --> 01:03:46.559
Yeah, like it's just it's you like what you like, and that is okay.

01:03:46.800 --> 01:03:52.480
It is just my my job to commentate on this particular album.

01:03:52.639 --> 01:03:54.159
Like that's what we do here.

01:03:54.400 --> 01:03:56.800
Um, so I hope that it's not too much of a dig.

01:03:57.119 --> 01:03:59.119
And if you're a fan, please be a fan.

01:03:59.199 --> 01:04:01.760
Don't let my opinion sway you at all.

01:04:02.079 --> 01:04:05.679
No, but I like I mean, I am a fan and I have the same observation.

01:04:06.000 --> 01:04:11.119
Like, you can be a fan and then be like, well, yeah, like it's it's I want to see her do better.

01:04:11.199 --> 01:04:19.440
I want to see her be successful and do better, and I think that comes from a place of of love for the industry and love of music.

01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:20.400
Yeah, yeah.

01:04:20.559 --> 01:04:22.400
Yeah, me too, because it she has a dinner.

01:04:22.880 --> 01:04:25.119
Yeah, she's so talented.

01:04:26.079 --> 01:04:30.880
I will say I have been on the record saying I I think she's got a couple years left.

01:04:31.119 --> 01:04:32.159
Uh probably.

01:04:32.719 --> 01:04:36.719
I don't want that, but it's just how it feels.

01:04:37.280 --> 01:04:38.559
What I would love.

01:04:39.599 --> 01:04:42.000
I would love to for her to get back into acting.

01:04:42.800 --> 01:04:43.920
I'd like to see that.

01:04:44.639 --> 01:04:46.559
She's a great actress, guys.

01:04:47.119 --> 01:04:49.920
And everyone keeps like tiptoeing around that.

01:04:50.000 --> 01:04:52.159
Like they forget that that that's where she came from.

01:04:53.039 --> 01:04:54.880
She's a fantastic actress.

01:04:56.719 --> 01:04:58.960
So I wanted her to get back into that too.

01:04:59.440 --> 01:05:02.079
That was uh that was a super solid discussion on it.

01:05:02.159 --> 01:05:05.599
I I enjoyed the the friendly banter.

01:05:06.639 --> 01:05:06.960
Me too.

01:05:07.119 --> 01:05:08.000
I mean, we agreed.

01:05:08.079 --> 01:05:12.960
I don't know if we did, but we also had some disagreements, I think.

01:05:13.119 --> 01:05:13.519
You know?

01:05:13.840 --> 01:05:14.320
Yeah.

01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:16.480
Yeah.

01:05:18.800 --> 01:05:20.719
Sorry, my pro's a little dry.

01:05:21.119 --> 01:05:21.519
You're okay.

01:05:22.079 --> 01:05:23.519
My eyes are a little heavy.

01:05:24.079 --> 01:05:26.320
I I know you want to eat some food.

01:05:26.480 --> 01:05:28.079
I'd like to go eat some food.

01:05:28.320 --> 01:05:31.039
So thanks for hanging out, buddy.

01:05:31.360 --> 01:05:32.320
Yeah, anytime.

01:05:32.400 --> 01:05:33.840
Thanks for uh yapping with me.

01:05:34.079 --> 01:05:38.559
I have um when we do a show next, I want to talk about the Alex Warren drama.

01:05:38.639 --> 01:05:39.760
So everyone stay tuned.

01:05:40.159 --> 01:05:47.760
Everyone already knows about it, but by the time this comes out and whatever episode you're talking about comes out, it'll it'll be long over.

01:05:48.000 --> 01:05:51.519
Honestly, I I hope so, and I hope it gets figured out because it gets me fired up.

01:05:51.760 --> 01:05:52.000
Okay.

01:05:52.159 --> 01:05:52.480
I don't know.

01:05:52.639 --> 01:05:54.079
Like it's not what's going on.

01:05:54.320 --> 01:05:55.360
Do you really not?

01:05:55.760 --> 01:05:56.559
I have no idea.

01:05:56.800 --> 01:05:58.159
Oh, what time is it?

01:05:58.400 --> 01:05:59.840
Can I can it be like a five-minute?

01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:01.119
Can I just fill you in really quick?

01:06:01.280 --> 01:06:02.079
Forget it.

01:06:02.159 --> 01:06:02.480
Yeah, yeah.

01:06:03.199 --> 01:06:08.880
So Alex Warren has been on tour for like a while now, right?

01:06:09.039 --> 01:06:16.239
Um, he was supposed to play this some festival, I think it was in Canada, but I could be wrong about that.

01:06:16.400 --> 01:06:19.840
And it was like a smaller festival, but he was like the bigger name, right?

01:06:20.239 --> 01:06:30.639
And months ago, he had told his record or his label, whatever it is, management, he was like, guys, I am not doing well mentally.

01:06:30.800 --> 01:06:32.000
Like this, this has been a lot.

01:06:32.079 --> 01:06:33.599
I miss my house, I miss my wife.

01:06:33.760 --> 01:06:36.000
Like, like I won't, I just need a break.

01:06:36.079 --> 01:06:37.599
Like, just give me a few days.

01:06:37.920 --> 01:06:40.639
And they're like, Okay, this is when we can sweeper break it.

01:06:41.360 --> 01:06:43.840
And it was during the time of that festival.

01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:49.199
So he reached out to them and he was like, Hey, again, not doing well mentally.

01:06:49.280 --> 01:06:51.360
And he's been very open about his mental health.

01:06:52.079 --> 01:06:55.599
And he was like, I like I'm not going to be able to do this.

01:06:55.679 --> 01:06:56.239
I'm so sorry.

01:06:56.320 --> 01:07:00.639
And he also, I think, was supposed to be on some talk show too, and that also got canceled, right?

01:07:01.280 --> 01:07:03.039
And so this was and so it was a whole thing.

01:07:03.360 --> 01:07:05.440
I don't know, actually, I don't know if it got canceled or not.

01:07:05.519 --> 01:07:06.880
But he ends up going home.

01:07:07.519 --> 01:07:14.159
The festival didn't tell the people that he had happened all the time.

01:07:14.639 --> 01:07:20.159
So so I agree, I agree, but bands also drop out of festivals all the time.

01:07:20.480 --> 01:07:21.039
You know what I mean?

01:07:21.280 --> 01:07:22.880
Like things come up, they can't make it.

01:07:22.960 --> 01:07:23.920
This is not new.

01:07:24.400 --> 01:07:47.119
However, the the festival made a public announcement bashing him and saying that he made other arrangements that were more important, and then put out the talk show that he was supposed to be on, and pretty much was like he doesn't care about his audience fully bashing it.

01:07:47.199 --> 01:07:48.159
Like it was awful.

01:07:49.039 --> 01:07:53.039
So his management was like, hey man, don't say anything, don't say anything, don't say anything.

01:07:53.280 --> 01:07:55.280
And he's like, No, I'm gonna say something.

01:07:55.760 --> 01:07:58.559
He's like, This is wild that you're not saying something.

01:07:59.199 --> 01:08:05.760
So he went on TikTok and he made a post and he said, Hey guys, just letting you know what they're saying isn't true.

01:08:05.840 --> 01:08:07.199
This was discussed months ago.

01:08:07.280 --> 01:08:09.280
I didn't just drop out the night before.

01:08:09.599 --> 01:08:13.440
Like, went through this whole spiel, and he was like, I just wanted to be home.

01:08:14.559 --> 01:08:24.399
Like, I just wanted to come home for a couple of nights, and everyone also was like thinking that maybe his wife was pregnant, and that's why he wanted I don't know how true that is, that's just speculation.

01:08:24.720 --> 01:08:48.239
But it makes me so mad because then like Dylan and I were just talking about the other day, like Avici he himself, and it's like you we lose these these incredible musicians because no one is understanding the total, like you think about having to leave your wife and kid for months, and like it that takes a lot on you.

01:08:48.319 --> 01:08:52.079
Like, just let the man go home, and also I'll sorry, go ahead.

01:08:52.560 --> 01:08:56.800
Well, I was gonna say they also like they're they're doing their job.

01:08:56.960 --> 01:09:15.680
Imagine, imagine if every day you were doing your job, people watched you do your job, wanted to talk to you about your job, wanted to tell you how your job changed their life, and like just constantly talk about your work non-stop forever.

01:09:15.760 --> 01:09:18.079
Like, granted, they get to do their job, right?

01:09:18.159 --> 01:09:48.880
It's music, like it's it's yeah, thing, but like we do forget that these people like are people, and it becomes their job when they're gone six months a year on these tours doing the same show for you and 50,000 other people every night, yeah, doing it the exact same way, and then 30,000 of you say, Oh, it wasn't as good as this city, like like and that's my thing, and it's crazy and so unprofessional.

01:09:50.960 --> 01:09:58.000
Yeah, it's awful, and it's it's so wild to me that like that I'm gonna have to find it and send it to you.

01:09:58.079 --> 01:10:01.199
I I think they took it down because they got a lot of backlash.

01:10:01.520 --> 01:10:16.880
Um, but then but then so many people are like, Well, you still had an obligation to your fans, and I'm like, you know, if you're a real fan, I I can't because also granted the people who bought the tickets for the festival, they didn't get a refund, they bought it for a festival.

01:10:17.199 --> 01:10:18.159
So that's like odd.

01:10:18.479 --> 01:10:27.840
You should have known you should have known that like anyone can drop out of a festival at any time, it doesn't matter how big, small, the name, like it just is what it is.

01:10:28.159 --> 01:10:33.279
But like the show, because he canceled his own shows too, they all got their money back, right?

01:10:33.439 --> 01:10:37.199
And like that, I'm sure have first come, first serve when it gets rebooked.

01:10:37.439 --> 01:10:38.239
Do you know what I mean?

01:10:38.319 --> 01:10:39.600
Yeah, yeah, and it's things like that.

01:10:39.680 --> 01:10:47.920
Like, he did everything right, and to have this festival bash him like that, and then to have other people be like, Well, yeah, you need to just get over it.

01:10:49.680 --> 01:10:54.880
That's wild, and it makes my heart so sad because he is so talented.

01:10:55.439 --> 01:10:58.720
That's like he and he genuinely cares about his fans.

01:10:58.800 --> 01:11:00.159
Like he, I don't know.

01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:03.600
Like anywho, it gets my blood going.

01:11:03.680 --> 01:11:05.920
It really does, because it makes me so mad.

01:11:06.319 --> 01:11:16.079
Well, if if you've hung out this long, um, stay tuned for an extra 20-ish minutes and and hear how Taylor quit the show.

01:11:16.960 --> 01:11:17.840

01:12:26.159 --> 01:12:26.640
Yeah?

01:12:26.880 --> 01:12:27.600
Yeah, I can hear that.

01:12:28.159 --> 01:12:29.840
We got sound effects.

01:12:33.840 --> 01:12:36.479
Uh, so that's gonna happen a lot more.

01:12:36.720 --> 01:12:41.279
Um so I have some news for you.

01:12:42.319 --> 01:12:53.039
It's it's been a long time coming, and uh the audience is gonna be sad, but they will they will get over it.

01:12:53.359 --> 01:12:57.359
Um Taylor has officially quit the show.

01:12:57.680 --> 01:12:58.319
What?

01:12:59.119 --> 01:13:00.640
It it is official.

01:13:00.880 --> 01:13:07.039
Taylor, she her her schedule does not line up at the moment.

01:13:07.359 --> 01:13:12.159
I let her know that the the spot is always open, she's always welcome to come hang out.

01:13:12.720 --> 01:13:19.920
Um, but she's doing her thing in Florida, and it doesn't involve us, unfortunately.

01:13:20.239 --> 01:13:24.399
So unfortunately, Taylor Taylor is done.

01:13:24.640 --> 01:13:25.920
Stop smiling.

01:13:26.159 --> 01:13:27.760
I'm trying not to smile.

01:13:28.239 --> 01:13:28.960
You doing.

01:13:30.239 --> 01:13:35.760
Um, yeah, she, you know, it's been it's been heading that way.

01:13:36.159 --> 01:13:39.760
Um, but she has decided to step away.

01:13:39.920 --> 01:13:47.600
Um, she'll still pop on on occasion whenever she has the time, and she'll still do some side stuff here and there with us.

01:13:48.000 --> 01:13:50.640
Um me and Taylor are cool.

01:13:50.800 --> 01:13:53.680
There's been no no bad blood or anything.

01:13:54.000 --> 01:14:01.439
Um but Chris, you ready to pick up the mantle as the official co-host of the show?

01:14:01.760 --> 01:14:03.920
I have to get a pretty sweet wig.

01:14:05.920 --> 01:14:08.000
I'll be the other Taylor.

01:14:10.960 --> 01:14:12.319
Oh, that that does suck.

01:14:12.399 --> 01:14:20.960
I was just talking to uh Kenny and Chelleck the other day, and Kenny was like, you know, it's nice to have everybody everybody's different.

01:14:21.199 --> 01:14:22.079
All three of us.

01:14:22.239 --> 01:14:24.479
It's so that was that was nice.

01:14:24.720 --> 01:14:25.359
Yeah.

01:14:26.000 --> 01:14:30.399
Um, but like we've said before, we are expanding.

01:14:30.640 --> 01:14:37.520
So uh there's a guy named Ron that Chris met recently that will be joining the show more.

01:14:38.079 --> 01:14:53.760
Um as long as his schedule lines up, he's gonna be in the background kind of doing those sound effects and and handling like the the logistics sides of things, um handling like uh like the media type stuff, you know what I mean?

01:14:54.000 --> 01:14:58.640
Because he's just he's super good at that stuff, and I am not, he's cool.

01:14:59.760 --> 01:15:06.720
Um but yeah, our our cook and bridge podcast team is expanding.

01:15:06.960 --> 01:15:10.239
And uh, you know, down the road, who knows?

01:15:10.479 --> 01:15:13.920
Um but yeah, it is official, man.

01:15:14.000 --> 01:15:16.880
It's it's you and me, it's you and me, brother.

01:15:17.600 --> 01:15:20.479
Um, so yeah, that's the big news.

01:15:20.640 --> 01:15:22.560
That's sad, sad day.

01:15:22.800 --> 01:15:23.600
Sad day.

01:15:23.760 --> 01:15:26.479
Yeah, I couldn't have I couldn't have faked that surprise.

01:15:26.560 --> 01:15:29.520
So thank you for not telling me before you know before recording.

01:15:29.680 --> 01:15:31.359
I was like, come on, what is it?

01:15:31.439 --> 01:15:32.000
What is it?

01:15:32.159 --> 01:15:33.520
That's not what I was hoping for.

01:15:34.319 --> 01:15:38.960
Yeah, yeah, it's you know, it's sad, it's unfortunate, but I I get it.

01:15:39.119 --> 01:15:56.079
She's you know, she's 24, she's you know, figuring things out down there, and it's not that she doesn't want to do it, it's just that her life in Florida has become more important than doing the show, and that's all right, you know what I mean.

01:15:56.239 --> 01:15:59.359
It's Taylor, if you're listening, which I know you don't listen to the show.

01:15:59.920 --> 01:16:01.199
I listen to the show.

01:16:01.439 --> 01:16:02.880
How could you abandon me?

01:16:03.039 --> 01:16:05.920
I thought we were gonna start our own thing and kick Harley off.

01:16:08.000 --> 01:16:10.159
I wonder if she'll start listening now.

01:16:10.319 --> 01:16:12.960
I doubt it, I highly doubt it.

01:16:13.279 --> 01:16:15.840
Um, but yeah, the audience is gonna be sad.

01:16:15.920 --> 01:16:18.319
It's a sad day, but it'll be all right.

01:16:18.479 --> 01:16:23.199
We're gonna have so much fun, we're gonna do a ton of fun stuff on here.

01:16:23.439 --> 01:16:26.079
Um, you and I we hit it off, man.

01:16:26.159 --> 01:16:27.359
We're we're golden.

01:16:27.680 --> 01:16:32.239
Um, so yeah, it's it's gonna be it's gonna be some tough shoes to fill, man.

01:16:32.399 --> 01:16:34.640
But you're you're doing a great job.

01:16:34.960 --> 01:16:41.199
Just don't ask me to do the uh this list this list that's all you're getting.

01:16:41.279 --> 01:16:42.000
That's it.

01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:49.439
I I told her I told her on the phone today because so she's not gonna hear it, so I don't care.

01:16:49.680 --> 01:16:52.319
Um, so full disclosure, I called her.

01:16:52.399 --> 01:16:53.520
So I texted her yesterday.

01:16:53.600 --> 01:16:56.000
I was like, hey, just confirming 7 p.m.

01:16:56.479 --> 01:17:00.239
same time we've done it, three years in a row, same day.

01:17:00.560 --> 01:17:02.399
She was like, Yeah, yeah, we're good, we're good.

01:17:02.640 --> 01:17:05.760
Then today she's like, Hey, can we do 8 p.m.?

01:17:06.000 --> 01:17:07.920
Because I'm gonna go to dinner with Dylan.

01:17:08.079 --> 01:17:10.960
And I was like, working, so I didn't answer.

01:17:11.199 --> 01:17:20.239
And then later in the day, I get, hey, actually, I think we're going out as a family, so we may have to reschedule.

01:17:20.640 --> 01:17:21.760
I didn't answer.

01:17:22.000 --> 01:17:30.720
So then I call her on my way home, and she's sitting in the pool drinking with Dylan's mom and this party town.

01:17:30.880 --> 01:17:33.359
She's like, Yeah, I'm gonna try to be back by eight.

01:17:33.600 --> 01:17:36.880
I was like, buddy, it's just not gonna happen.

01:17:37.600 --> 01:17:42.479
There's no way you're not gonna go out and get home by eight.

01:17:42.560 --> 01:17:43.439
It's just not gonna happen.

01:17:43.600 --> 01:17:46.800
I was like, it's uh I don't blame her.

01:17:46.960 --> 01:17:49.680
I mean, I'd love to be drinking in a pool.

01:17:49.920 --> 01:17:50.720
I agree.

01:17:50.960 --> 01:17:54.159
Like, uh, I did tell her, I was like, you know what's funny?

01:17:54.239 --> 01:18:00.960
I said, if you want to feel bad, I said, I asked both you and Chris the same question, can we do a show today?

01:18:01.279 --> 01:18:08.560
And your response was yes, followed by no, followed by maybe, followed by no.

01:18:08.720 --> 01:18:11.199
And then uh that was Taylor's response.

01:18:11.359 --> 01:18:19.119
Then Chris's response was yes, what are conversation topics, and let me research those topics today.

01:18:21.680 --> 01:18:22.960
Don't make her hate me.

01:18:23.279 --> 01:18:26.159
I was like, he's just a better co-host.

01:18:26.960 --> 01:18:29.600
I was like, because she was she always jokes around.

01:18:29.680 --> 01:18:32.079
She's always like, Do you think Chris is a better sister than me?

01:18:32.239 --> 01:18:36.319
And I was like, No, but he's definitely a better co-host.

01:18:38.800 --> 01:18:40.239
Oh man.

01:18:40.720 --> 01:18:42.319
No, she's cool, she's cool.

01:18:42.399 --> 01:18:52.880
She she totally she was like, Yeah, she I think her whole thing is she just doesn't want to upset me by saying, Yeah, I'm just not really into it anymore.

01:18:53.119 --> 01:18:55.920
Um, and that's fine, you know what I mean?

01:18:56.000 --> 01:19:00.720
Like it she doesn't want to upset me, but I was like, it's not gonna hurt my feelings if you're not into it, you're not into it.

01:19:00.800 --> 01:19:01.680
You know what I mean?

01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:03.920
Show will always go on.

01:19:04.560 --> 01:19:10.319
Um speaking of that was a crazy article you sent me a little bit ago.

01:19:10.479 --> 01:19:12.720
Speaking of bad, sad news.

01:19:13.039 --> 01:19:16.720
Yeah, walk us through what happened.

01:19:17.039 --> 01:19:21.600
Oh I mean, I didn't I I read enough to be like, oh my goodness.

01:19:21.920 --> 01:19:27.520
So uh that's why I was panning it to you because I also read enough to be like, oh my goodness.

01:19:27.920 --> 01:19:28.560
Yeah.

01:19:28.880 --> 01:19:36.159
So uh I was once again, like all my news, I get it on iFunny, and I was like, This can't be real.

01:19:36.319 --> 01:19:37.680
Someone's just making this up.

01:19:37.840 --> 01:19:45.279
So the song uh songwriter Brett James, among three, killed in small plane crash in North Carolina.

01:19:45.680 --> 01:19:50.159
Um he wrote Jesus Take the Wheel.

01:19:50.720 --> 01:19:55.680
Yeah, and I was like the co-writer with Carrie Underwood on that song.

01:19:56.159 --> 01:19:57.199
Oh, possibly.

01:19:57.439 --> 01:20:04.079
I just know that song makes me good cry, so Jesus Takes the Wheel.

01:20:05.439 --> 01:20:06.880
Is your good cry song?

01:20:07.840 --> 01:20:12.079
Well, I never listened to it on purpose and always hit you like sometimes.

01:20:12.239 --> 01:20:19.680
Sometimes I forget that you are like a good old-fashioned red-blooded Christian American.

01:20:22.880 --> 01:20:24.720
Um, some of those things are true.

01:20:24.880 --> 01:20:33.520
They do have red blood, and uh I've never been hit by a religious song.

01:20:33.920 --> 01:20:35.600
Like, I don't know why.

01:20:35.760 --> 01:20:37.600
They've just never really hit me.

01:20:37.760 --> 01:20:43.680
I mean, Amazing Grace gets me, but that's like I don't know, it's amazing grace.

01:20:43.760 --> 01:20:44.560
You know what I mean?

01:20:45.199 --> 01:20:48.640
Is the do have you ever heard the song The Christmas Shoes?

01:20:50.239 --> 01:20:52.319
I've told you this a million times.

01:20:52.560 --> 01:20:54.640
I do not know songs by names.

01:20:54.800 --> 01:20:57.920
Like if you play it, I'd be like, Oh hell yeah, I love that song.

01:20:58.239 --> 01:20:59.760
Oh, if only I was allowed.

01:20:59.920 --> 01:21:01.520
Um, I can't even sing it.

01:21:01.680 --> 01:21:03.600
Um, because I don't know it that well.

01:21:03.840 --> 01:21:07.199
I was gonna say, I'm sure you don't sing it well enough to strike.

01:21:07.279 --> 01:21:14.159
So no, I just don't know the words, but that I just I don't know if that song is considered a Christian song or not.

01:21:14.399 --> 01:21:15.520
What's it called that one?

01:21:15.600 --> 01:21:17.439
It's called The Christmas Shoes.

01:21:17.680 --> 01:21:21.840
Um, but that one, dude, you want to talk about a song that'll pull at your heartstrings.

01:21:22.159 --> 01:21:23.199
Oh my god.

01:21:26.159 --> 01:21:27.760
Related to the movie?

01:21:28.000 --> 01:21:28.880
Yes, yeah.

01:21:28.960 --> 01:21:30.800
I believe it was written.

01:21:31.039 --> 01:21:33.279
No, I believe the song came first.

01:21:35.439 --> 01:21:37.439
Well, I'm gonna tell you right now, I'm gonna love the movie.

01:21:37.520 --> 01:21:38.880
It's got Rob Lowe in it.

01:21:39.039 --> 01:21:39.840
Yeah, yeah, dude.

01:21:39.920 --> 01:21:42.399
The dog, dude, that movie's sad as fuck.

01:21:42.640 --> 01:21:44.560
That was a bad that's a bad one.

01:21:44.800 --> 01:21:47.600
That's that's uh that's a sad ass movie.

01:21:47.840 --> 01:22:03.680
Um yeah, uh I don't know if it's a if it's a well, it's a Christmas song, and the the holiday of Christmas is related to Christ in turn would make it a Christian song, right?

01:22:04.239 --> 01:22:07.199
Uh I think Frosty the Snowman.

01:22:08.159 --> 01:22:11.600
I mean, reference Christmas in that.

01:22:11.680 --> 01:22:14.239
Honestly, I don't know Frosty the Snowman well enough.

01:22:14.479 --> 01:22:18.479
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer is is a hymn.

01:22:20.880 --> 01:22:21.920
I don't know, man.

01:22:22.159 --> 01:22:23.680
You're the music expert.

01:22:24.319 --> 01:22:36.960
I'm just thinking, like, in in Christmas, we celebrate Christmas um for the celebration of Christ, which is Christianity.

01:22:37.439 --> 01:22:46.640
Um, so therefore, Santa Claus is coming to town is a religious hymn.

01:22:46.960 --> 01:22:51.840
I I get I mean you you can look at it however you want this day and age.

01:22:52.159 --> 01:22:56.159
Two degrees of uh separation or whatever they say.

01:22:56.640 --> 01:22:59.680
Um dude, I forget what was I?

01:22:59.760 --> 01:23:05.119
I was just talking to somebody about uh about something relating to something like that.

01:23:05.279 --> 01:23:06.720
What the hell was it?

01:23:07.439 --> 01:23:08.880
I can't remember.

01:23:09.199 --> 01:23:12.079
Um oh well, it must not be that important.

01:23:12.640 --> 01:23:14.399
Uh you'll text me about it later.

01:23:14.479 --> 01:23:17.920
You'll be like, this is absolutely will.

01:23:18.399 --> 01:23:26.479
Um no, I was definitely I was definitely talking to somebody about uh something being something because oh oh Christmas movies.

01:23:26.640 --> 01:23:28.399
Um, I was talking to Taylor about it.

01:23:28.560 --> 01:23:32.159
Um, we were talking about uh Gremlins.

01:23:32.560 --> 01:23:35.039
Gremlins is a Christmas movie.

01:23:35.279 --> 01:23:36.479
Do you agree?

01:23:37.760 --> 01:23:38.079
No.

01:23:39.119 --> 01:23:39.600
Why?

01:23:39.920 --> 01:23:42.479
Just because it just because it happens around Christmas.

01:23:42.800 --> 01:23:47.520
I mean, so the argument is like movies that have Christmas in it.

01:23:48.319 --> 01:23:52.479
One argument is it automatically makes it a Christmas movie, right?

01:23:52.800 --> 01:23:53.359
Diehard.

01:23:53.680 --> 01:23:54.159
Diehard.

01:23:54.239 --> 01:23:59.279
I mean, I agree with the diehard though, but hear me out, hear me out, right?

01:24:00.720 --> 01:24:15.520
I heard the argument that the Harry Potter universe has Christmas, the wizards celebrate Christmas, but only in the first, third, and fourth movies.

01:24:15.840 --> 01:24:21.439
So I do consider the first, third, and fourth Harry Potter movies Christmas movies.

01:24:22.560 --> 01:24:23.199
Yeah.

01:24:23.760 --> 01:24:25.920
But I'm gonna turn you around on Gremlins.

01:24:26.079 --> 01:24:26.640
You ready?

01:24:26.880 --> 01:24:27.199
Okay.

01:24:27.439 --> 01:24:40.479
So let's take the idea of the world saying that Christmas movies have to involve Christmas in some capacity in the movie, they happen around Christmas time, like Die Hard, right?

01:24:42.239 --> 01:24:53.680
Gremlins takes it a step further because the Mogwai is a Christmas present, they celebrate Christmas in the movie.

01:24:53.920 --> 01:25:00.159
The entire plot of the movie revolves around Christmas, technically.

01:25:01.680 --> 01:25:03.680
Yeah, I guess.

01:25:04.000 --> 01:25:07.359
So then I consider it a Christmas movie.

01:25:08.800 --> 01:25:12.560
I mean, I'm always down with new and exciting Christmas movies.

01:25:12.960 --> 01:25:22.159
Uh, I think that I should be able to sit down and watch Gremlins and the Frosty the Snowman claymation movie in the same afternoon.

01:25:22.399 --> 01:25:22.720
Why not?

01:25:22.960 --> 01:25:23.439
You're an adult.

01:25:24.319 --> 01:25:25.520
This is America.

01:25:26.239 --> 01:25:27.520
This is America.

01:25:27.920 --> 01:25:36.399
Um, but yeah, that was our that was our conversation the other day, was talking about Christmas movies, and then we got into like the weeds of like, okay, well, this movie has Christmas.

01:25:36.560 --> 01:25:38.399
Okay, well, this movie has Christmas.

01:25:38.720 --> 01:25:45.520
So yeah, I think Gremlins is a Christmas movie and Jurassic Park is a horror film.

01:25:49.039 --> 01:25:50.239
Oh man.

01:25:51.119 --> 01:25:58.239
Um, so speaking of horror films, we had uh we had a live show recently, you and I.

01:25:58.479 --> 01:26:02.000
Yes, over at Frank's Monster Munchies in Cantina.

01:26:02.159 --> 01:26:02.640
Yes.

01:26:02.880 --> 01:26:04.720
Shout out Frank.

01:26:04.880 --> 01:26:05.760
It's a mouthful.

01:26:06.000 --> 01:26:07.359
Frank's is awesome.

01:26:07.520 --> 01:26:10.079
If you guys are ever in the area, stop and check it out.

01:26:10.239 --> 01:26:14.399
So uh me and my wife got there a little before Harley did.

01:26:14.960 --> 01:26:16.880
So we got to sample some of the food.

01:26:16.960 --> 01:26:18.960
Oh my god, it was so good.

01:26:19.279 --> 01:26:20.880
It was so good.

01:26:21.600 --> 01:26:22.640
Oh, amazing.

01:26:22.720 --> 01:26:23.520
I can't wait to go.

01:26:24.720 --> 01:26:33.760
Yeah, we will be back um on October uh 8th.

01:26:34.159 --> 01:26:39.119
The 8th of October, we will be back over there doing another live show.

01:26:39.359 --> 01:26:41.520
So definitely come out and hang out with us.

01:26:41.760 --> 01:26:43.359
But no, it was great.

01:26:43.520 --> 01:26:44.640
I had a blast.

01:26:44.880 --> 01:26:50.079
Um, full disclosure, because I I love my audience and I'm not gonna lie to them.

01:26:50.399 --> 01:26:51.840
No one showed up.

01:26:52.000 --> 01:26:53.520
I wasn't going to say it.

01:26:53.680 --> 01:26:59.680
I I I argued with myself on whether or not I was gonna say it, but they deserve to know.

01:27:00.000 --> 01:27:03.199
Zero people showed up to the first live show over there.

01:27:04.399 --> 01:27:10.079
I don't know if it was the the time, I don't know if it was lack of advertising.

01:27:10.720 --> 01:27:14.319
Uh it it it was a Wednesday, it's in the middle of the week.

01:27:14.560 --> 01:27:17.920
Like there are a lot of variables for sure.

01:27:18.159 --> 01:27:21.680
Um, I think this next one's gonna be a lot better.

01:27:22.000 --> 01:27:28.880
Uh, but even with nobody but us and the staff, we still had a blast.

01:27:29.119 --> 01:27:32.000
Yeah, I I yeah, that was that was fun.

01:27:32.239 --> 01:27:33.199
That was fun.

01:27:33.680 --> 01:27:38.960
The uh the family that owns was yeah, they sat down, talked to us.

01:27:39.520 --> 01:27:41.039
Yeah, it was awesome.

01:27:41.600 --> 01:27:43.520
Yeah, you did a great job.

01:27:43.680 --> 01:27:45.039
Um you stop.

01:27:47.439 --> 01:27:49.680
Uh yeah, you you did a great job.

01:27:49.840 --> 01:27:52.960
Your wife did a fantastic job filming.

01:27:53.199 --> 01:27:53.760
Almost.

01:27:53.920 --> 01:27:57.520
She kept turning the phone, and I was like, oh goodness.

01:27:58.319 --> 01:28:00.399
Babe, you got to put it on screen lock or something.

01:28:00.479 --> 01:28:02.239
I mean, I don't know what you're doing.

01:28:02.800 --> 01:28:09.119
The so far, the one video that I did put up on our Instagram page was perfect.

01:28:09.359 --> 01:28:17.600
The in she caught the intro perfectly, and then you turn and look at the camera and she zooms in on you and you make a funny face.

01:28:17.680 --> 01:28:21.680
It's the perfect clip uh to promote what we do.

01:28:21.840 --> 01:28:22.479
It was awesome.

01:28:22.640 --> 01:28:25.760
No, she didn't she did a great job, fantastic job.

01:28:25.920 --> 01:28:29.920
Um, but no, it's it's gonna be a great time the next time, too.

01:28:30.239 --> 01:28:35.279
Um, what uh what would you say was like your favorite part of the live show?

01:28:38.159 --> 01:28:39.199
Oh man.

01:28:43.520 --> 01:28:54.239
Honestly, with five kids and my mother-in-law in the house, it was just nice to get out of the house and not go to work.

01:28:54.479 --> 01:29:00.720
Um I don't know, it was it was honestly hearing their opinions.

01:29:01.920 --> 01:29:04.880
Like talking to them was great.

01:29:05.119 --> 01:29:10.960
Like, yeah, like that it I want to say it was them, they made it great.

01:29:11.279 --> 01:29:17.680
Yeah, I love um I love the audience banter, I love involving and and asking questions.

01:29:18.079 --> 01:29:28.079
Um I think right right in the beginning would be my favorite part when we were just asking the bar staff about podcasts and stuff.

01:29:28.239 --> 01:29:32.319
Like I I love getting like the crowd work of it in, you know what I mean?

01:29:32.479 --> 01:29:32.800
Yeah.

01:29:33.039 --> 01:29:37.680
Um I like uh I like that kind of comedy as well.

01:29:38.000 --> 01:29:42.479
So getting any chance to present some crowd work, I'm in.

01:29:42.640 --> 01:29:42.960
Yeah.

01:29:43.279 --> 01:29:45.520
Yeah, everybody everybody missed it.

01:29:45.760 --> 01:29:49.680
Harley, uh Harley confessed his love for the island boys.

01:29:53.520 --> 01:29:55.119
Who did I confuse them with?

01:29:55.279 --> 01:29:56.079
I still don't know.

01:29:56.640 --> 01:29:57.920
The Suicide Boys?

01:29:58.079 --> 01:29:59.840
Yes, I gotta look up.

01:30:00.239 --> 01:30:01.279
Who the hell that is.

01:30:01.520 --> 01:30:02.079
Me too.

01:30:02.319 --> 01:30:03.359
I'm gonna do it right now.

01:30:03.520 --> 01:30:08.159
I'll leave it on one of my uh I'll leave it on one of my browsers, one of my 136.

01:30:09.039 --> 01:30:12.079
Dude, I was so convinced that's who they were talking about.

01:30:12.239 --> 01:30:13.600
You knew it immediately.

01:30:13.760 --> 01:30:14.800
That was great.

01:30:15.119 --> 01:30:18.000
As soon as they said boys, my first thought was Suicide Boys.

01:30:18.079 --> 01:30:18.720
And I'm like, oh.

01:30:18.960 --> 01:30:20.000
Or no, the island boys.

01:30:20.159 --> 01:30:20.880
The island boys.

01:30:21.039 --> 01:30:26.000
Yeah, that was the I could see them in my head and their like fucked up hair and teeth.

01:30:26.159 --> 01:30:27.600
And I was like, really?

01:30:27.840 --> 01:30:30.239
That's who you're gonna go pay money to see?

01:30:30.640 --> 01:30:39.600
They they they kind of remind me of uh of like a whitewashed was it the Applejacks?

01:30:40.239 --> 01:30:44.319
Yes, the the cinnamon, the cinnamon stick guy, like that's what they're reminding me.

01:30:44.880 --> 01:30:46.319
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:30:46.479 --> 01:30:50.880
Yeah, it's like oh oh they're they're uh they're an interesting.

01:30:50.960 --> 01:30:53.359
I want to know what they're doing right now.

01:30:53.920 --> 01:30:56.399
Are they still like around?

01:30:57.359 --> 01:30:58.800
They've gotta be, right?

01:30:59.039 --> 01:30:59.600
Oh yeah.

01:30:59.680 --> 01:31:01.359
Look at Rebecca Black.

01:31:02.319 --> 01:31:05.119
Don't you say a another bad word.

01:31:05.840 --> 01:31:10.560
I'm just what in the okay, all right.

01:31:10.800 --> 01:31:12.319
Here's a picture of them kissing.

01:31:12.399 --> 01:31:13.439
Please be AI.

01:31:14.720 --> 01:31:24.399
I you remember when we were there and that one girl was talking about um his baby.

01:31:25.760 --> 01:31:27.920
I just saw a picture of the baby.

01:31:28.479 --> 01:31:31.760
I thought she was I thought she was kidding.

01:31:32.079 --> 01:31:33.439
I don't know the situation.

01:31:33.600 --> 01:31:40.319
I'm not going to go deep into it, but I thought she was kidding on what she said at the show.

01:31:40.640 --> 01:31:43.439
No, it's but I'm looking at the picture.

01:31:43.760 --> 01:31:46.479
She was fucking spot on, dude.

01:31:46.960 --> 01:31:52.560
What that's that's something.

01:31:52.800 --> 01:31:54.479
That's something.

01:31:55.199 --> 01:31:55.920
Interesting.

01:31:56.159 --> 01:31:59.520
Okay, I'm not diving into this whirlwind.

01:32:02.239 --> 01:32:06.239
Don't act like you didn't just take the poster down that's been behind you every show.

01:32:06.880 --> 01:32:08.800
Yeah, you like the renovations?

01:32:10.640 --> 01:32:13.039
I look like I'm in a prison cell, man.

01:32:13.840 --> 01:32:18.720
Oh, yeah, you're definitely in some kind of insane asylum padded room.

01:32:18.960 --> 01:32:19.840
Yeah, yeah.

01:32:20.079 --> 01:32:21.039
What's odd?

01:32:21.600 --> 01:32:23.359
That's the casting couch.

01:32:23.840 --> 01:32:25.279
Yes, probably.

01:32:26.239 --> 01:32:28.239
That's probably what this room was for.

01:32:28.560 --> 01:32:30.880
Hey guys, how do you think I got the job?

01:32:32.479 --> 01:32:40.479
Uh I will say that this shot of the studio right now is the cleanest shot of the studio.

01:32:40.800 --> 01:32:44.000
The rest of it is real bad behind me.

01:32:44.239 --> 01:32:50.560
I was gonna say, you you I can still see a bottle of or an open bottle of barbecue sauce on the couch.

01:32:50.880 --> 01:32:52.399
What's up with that, Harley?

01:32:53.199 --> 01:32:55.680
I I put barbecue sauce on my titties.

01:32:55.840 --> 01:32:56.720
That's my thing.

01:32:57.920 --> 01:32:58.880
I don't believe you.

01:32:59.039 --> 01:32:59.840
Prove it.

01:33:00.800 --> 01:33:04.560
Thanks for listening to the Hokin Bridge Podcast.
