Eddie & Rocky -- 12/9/25

With Eddie and Rocky, the Prodigal Sun returns. He's tanned, rested, and ready so tanned up.

He's trying to kick his cigarette habit that he picked up while in Aruba.

I'm very surprised I didn't smoke down it.

Really, I'm a little disappointed.

That's only I I only certain there's only certain boundaries of countries that I crossed when I smoke again.

So yeah, So in other words, when you go to London kind of a quarter Dreyer place, like it's time to start ripping.

Yeah, I'm not going to sit outside in the sun it's ninety degrees and have a couple of heaters. Man, I'm good, punch a stick with my my ties or whatever. I bet you had a few of those stuff. Yeah, So let's talk about the matters at hand. Rock And We've had this a gentleman on many times, and I love talk about breaking down the hospital bills and getting itemized stuff because.

You don't know what you're getting, right, You have no idea, and you know that they catch you in a vulnerable position, right, and you just want to get something paid. You got somebody sick or yourself sick, and you're Okay, we'll just pay this thing. And there's been a big push for a while here, especially in particular with our next guest, about making that more transparent and lowering bills for folks a bit.

Well, let's get him on right now, doctor Bill, welcome back to the program.

Well, thank you, Merry Christmas, Cincinnati.

You've all been demoted.

While your health insurance costs go up more than the raises you didn't get.

Let's fix that.

Wow, doctor, our guests, and well before we go into further Doc, explain to people. You've got a new gig. Right, what are you doing right now?

Oh?

I do.

I'm with the ARC Group in a strong partnership delivering healthcare that's affordable for America. The reason we got together I showed you guy, we have an AI bill repricer now, so now all of America can understand their bill. You drag and drop your bill into a box on a PDF form, and you see the full name of every care item that the hospital hides, the price per care item that the hospital previously hides, and what you should really pay, which is what Blue Shield United singing that

So this is something that you do before you go to the hospital. You plug this in. You figure out which hospital is going to give you the better deal, depending on whatever ailment it is you have.

This one's really for an aftercare. They said, a lot of people get care and they didn't plan on getting care, and then they get stuck with this thing that we all know is called a surprise medical bill. And they look at the sticker shock. After they're done a thinking or saying out loud, they're expletives.

They don't know what to do. And this is where we say, look.

Your itemized medical bill is your personal property.

The hospital must give it to you and at no cost.

That falls under HIPPA Law of nineteen ninety six Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act. Under the privacy law, your bill is your property. Hardly anybody knows that. That's why I repeat it again. In other words, I teach everybody you don't pay one dollar towards your bill until you have looked at an itemized bill, which is exactly.

What you do in the rest of your life.

Yeah, and let me ask you, doc, how easy is it to fight this stuff?

Yeah?

You can go through and say, okay, you charge me, you know, fifteen dollars for an aspirin or something about how do you find it?

This is easy.

I heard you guys talking before I got on. I sit down, I put a cigar in one hand, I pick up the cell phone in the other and pull. If it's gone in ten minutes. Okay, not everybody's me, but it is easy. At true charge dot some health.

Sumhealth dot org.

The form that is there to request an itemized bill, that's free. Anybody can download it, copy and paste it. You don't have to know all the big words that I do. Copy and paste it. And then when people get an itemized bill, the stuff the hospitals and the health insurance companies previously have hidden and you see names. So many people see things that well, they never did that to me, but they spend five minutes with me,

Interesting And how long has this been been around?

Doc?

This offering has been around since November.

Okay a month. That's it pretty new.

Well, so anybody can use it, but at a minimum, everybody needs to know your bill is your property and there's a free request form on how to ask for an itemized bill so that the right information's in there. And if everybody did that, we'd be forcing price transparency because we'd be stopping the hospitals from get Imagine every person in America that got carried to a hospital that I'm not paying my bill to you give me an itemized bill.

They just don't get paid any And I know it's pretty new, but any estimates on the average amount of money that has saved per bill the folks that are using.

This, you know, when we do the bill negotiation, we're averaging about seventy percent off bill charges. And if I just reversed that and say for what a hospital in the United States charges for care, And if I've I was picked to say, what are they really get paid by their friends at Blue Shield United Singa. The answer

Get a number at her around there.

Wait, so you say, look, here's my bill, but here's what I can pay right now, take it or leave it. A lot of times you're saying they'll take.

It, that's correct.

Or if you don't want to pay the three thousand, he said, well, you know they came back and they said five thousand. I'd say, you know what, give them fifty dollars a month in a paper check each month, and you call it a good faith payment. And if it's a good faith payment, now, all you're doing is they can't sue you because you've made a good faith payment. Most of these are large nonprofit hospital systems, and they can't.

Now, who is it with the hospital that you call? Like, I mean, what number? Do you you know what I mean, like, who's the person you're seeking out that's gonna you can wrangle with about this. Who's gonna give you the time? It's not going to be an AI generated voice or someone in Pakistan, Like, how do you who's the person you go to?

It's a great question.

So to request your itemized bills, I do recommend calling. You would think you just ask for the medical billing department. Well that's true half the time, but the other half the time you send it to the request of the medical records department. So I call the medical billing department and say I want an itemized bill. I'm going to use doctor Bill's form from true charge dot somehealth dot org where I send it. It's either medical billing or medical records.

And then you get it.

You typically you are talking then to somebody in medical billing when you're negotiating this down just to you'd say I'd like to settle my bill. Who do I talk to? I can't afford your crazy price here. We know nobody pays it, so I'm looking to be reasonable.

You can do that.

There's one other secret number, the financial assistance. If you're making between ballpark thirty thousand, dollars to eighty thousand dollars.

Well, doctor Bill, please tell us hell this can happen. Because the TikTok video you sent was was amazing and it was just a sample kind of bill. But it went from my thirty five thousand dollars to like three grand or something like that. And just by using this app and picking through the stuff. So where can people find out more?

Yeah, for the AI bill repriser and to get the itemized bill request form. To start your fight with or without our assistance, you go to true charge dot some sumhealth dot somehealth dot org and there's a thirty second video there. There's the itemized bill request there and our frequently asked questions and you know, I would say, also try not to go to the hospital. It's the most expensive place for routine e elective care. But at the

With that, we will let you go, Doctor Bill Hennessy. We really appreciate it. Always good stuff, man.

Great beaking with you, fellows.

Doctor Thank you.

Uh doctor Bill Hennessy who apologized that he was going to be on the member. He sent us to the pictures for he was on like the beach and or something last time.

Rock, a big old thanks to our good friends. It's Skyline, absolutely dropping by the mac and cheese three way back. Remember we had this conversation last year. We're both trying to figure out how you say coma tappi pasta.

It's it's back that word that you and I.

It's quite good and it's it's all Skyline. You what it tastes like? And the chicken chili all good, wonderful stuff and uh here to heat us up on this cold winter's day, just.

Like some hot Skyline.

Is our little cheese cony. I don't know what to say about it. Sut it out, Let's not that's fine. I could have said, but.

I'm so no, thank you very much. Way to hold back on this.

I knew he was. I've known him way too long. I mean, I'm in my head. I'm like, he is battling right now. How to use the word three way? I introducing so anyway?

I was interviewed, who is the guy from oh, shoot with the Little Olsen Twins?

Yeah, the show, Oh, the Family Feud, one of those.

So I want to interview John Stamos And I said something naively like that, So I understand you love sin said, He goes, yeah, I love a three way and I'm like, that's great, you know, And we're going through and I don't realize that he's just making pun honey with me, and I'm just I'm just going with it, like, oh really, I love anyways too, I mean, like an idiot, a.

Five woy gal. And in at the end he's like, are we talking about the same thing.

Or but by the way, we were not talking about.

The same I let's uh, well, let's let's talk about more important matters. You will you wrote this story on the on the mayor and the car repossession. What I was watching this happen from Afar and it's like, how about a cluster. This is let's the guy get himself in that situation.

Oh okay, well, I mean, look, I am not an apologist for the mayor.

Please do not call me an email me saying I please do not do that.

I did this actual story. But actually I have to give credit. You know, there is a Facebook site signal ninety nine, and they had put it out there, and you know, it piqued my interest.

Is this true?

And you know, I can't just assume what they're saying is true. They're start putting something out there, and so I reached out to the mayor's office. I ended up getting the document that they had on signal ninety nine, and I talked to the mayor on the phone and he said, yeah, I had.

My car repossess last year.

He also they now taking nine nine suggested that there was a second repossession order out there. He's like, I don't know anything about the second repossession order, and I am paid enough to date and I can prove it. I didn't ask him to prove it at that moment, but that's what he told me. And I, you know, I talked to a dealer since then and they looked at that order, that's that alleged second repossession order, and

Therefore, you know whatever.

Anyway, but yes, so he admitted that, yes, indeed, he had his car repossessed last year, he would have issues with.

His auto pay.

And you know, look, I got to tell you whether you like a person or not as a human being, and I know I'm there to ask tough questions and I am happy to ask tough questions. That was an uncomfortable conversation for me because it's embarrassing. It's an embarrassing thing to have to ask someone. It's embarrassing for him to have to admit to it. But the question I want to ask you because I have gotten blowback, like you cannot believe on this story, whether it's people saying

No, I think you're absolutely in line. Because and Steve Gooden we had him on the show yesterday talking about this, and he brought up a great point, which was, you know, if if you're in a you know, public official position, right, you have people coming at you all the time about this and that, and and if the word is out that you're, you know, financially struggling or could be, you know, there's the potential for for someone to dangle something in

Okay, you know ed you do? You feel similarly well, and.

You asked the question of did you go too far one way or the other? I see it sounds like you did exactly your job, because if you're getting equal pushback from both sides, sounds like you just reported the story. And if you know what I'm saying, if if nobody, if nobody's siding with you, you did your job as a reporter, is my.

Is my take.

I think Dad had probably heard me say this, your wife that if I've ticked off both sides equally, I know I did it right.

Correct, right, And that's why you being married to a former reporter, I know that to be true.

You know, I think everyone at this point knows I'm married to someone who's an elected official, and I had to think from his perspective, like, what would happen if it's for him?

I do believe if this were him, they would have reported.

That one thousand percent. Okay, oh for sure, especially well, you know, yes.

Yes, yes, right, and it would be like a really awful picture of him like pointing his finger or something. Anyway, I do believe, like what you said, that there is that fear that if you are an elected official you have you can be compromised by having debt debt debts, And I think that that is it's a real thing. And let's hope that that does not happen often in local so it doesn't happen like at all, But we know we're not naive enough to believe that that's true,

I think, yeah, And there I guess give the mayor credit. You know, it wasn't like he played some ultra victim car thing.

You know.

Now, the story about the auto pay I think there's a lot of holes in that because apparently when you get your car repoe that they don't want to repel your car, right. They they call you, they text you, they email you, they come to your house. His name is aftab Pirival. There's not like there's twenty seven of

I will say this.

He did own it, you know, he he he called. He did not have to call me. He did not have to fess up, right, He could have left us guessing. So you know, it would have probably become something much larger had he decided not to say anything. And you know, here we are almost a week later, still talking about it. But I do give him a lot of credit. That's something that is embarrassing to have to admit to, especially as someone who is, you know, a forty three year

Their car repossessed.

They they messed up, they just did, and they were you know, they had their heads buried in the sand. They thought everything would work out, you know. But they were younger people, you know, at that time. So it's not It does happen, and I feel for anyone that happens to I mean, for sure, but I do think it was important that we told that story that day. And yeah, and it props to him for at least saying it.

Look, here, here's a guy who also was, by all accounts, a rising star in the Ohio Democratic Party. Now, what kind of a thorn is an't going to be in the future. I don't think that's not going to come back and bite you in the butt.

I mean, you just used the past tense. Does just that that's a question.

I mean, does that change Let's say he was being considered for a big position statewide. Does that change someone's opinion if they're wanting him to run for Congress or be a lieutenant governor. Does that change the minds of those who are making that decision.

I don't know.

Well, if you don't think it's not going to be on uh An issue in the in the future, if he does decide to run for an office like that, trust me.

And both sides would would use that. And that's the the ugly you know, the fair, fair games side of the whole deal. But whether it's effective or not, you know, I still think Tanya fortunately or unfortunately give even given this and given the violence downtown, if they were if there was an election tomorrow for mayor, he would win by eighty percent.

Again, that's just so many people said, oh, and you didn't know about this before the election, like the hate that I the vitriol I would get it, Like, oh, sure, why didn't you report this before the election?

Well?

One, I didn't know.

Two what I mean one? Let's just start him with one. I didn't know that before the election, or I would have reported it.

But if you do think about it, like, do you think it would have really changed anything?

I don't.

I don't think so. No, I agree with you.

I think that this city is very, very deep blue, and the results would have been extremely similar to how they were even if people knew this.

That's my opinion only.

All right, Well, Tanya, with that, we will let you go. But before we let you go, sure your your thoughts on uh just uh before well, because next week, you know, we're going to have a kind of a Christmas extravaganza with you and talk about your plans and your dreams and your hopes, uh or not, but your thoughts on your Cincinnati Bengals.

Oh, leaver with a downer.

I thought you might have enough gifting kind of there's still hope alive.

Oh come on, come on, we need like train racks to ocur, you know, meteorates to fall out of the sky, you know, rivers to run the.

Other direction, and us to win on Sunday. So I look, it's been a sad season. It's been fun in a lot of ways. I am forever grateful to Joe Blacko for being really just providing.

Us with some like oh thank you, thank you.

For you know, being that guy, and Joe Burrow for coming back because he could even though he didn't have to. So I think it's you know, I love the Bengals, I do. I just please, can we just get better?

Please? The Reds have gotten Schore.

We're I mean, come on.

I think everybody was pipe dreaming on that one.

But it shows how loyal and good of fans we are in this town that it just happens over the years multiple times. Are we still hang in there? We still root on our Bengals and our Reds?

What is the other option? The other option is go what?

I don't.

I'm never going to root for my home team again. I'm gonna be boring too. Yes, there's something, Yeah, it probably.

Doesn't I'm still going to be a Bengals and.

Reds, you know, all right, Tanya. With that, we will let you go and we'll.

Talk to you.

Thoroughly depressed. Now I'm gonna go buy some candy and eat it up.

Then wow, okay, it's on sail at Rogero.

Well, you'll get access to the most advanced treatments available for your cancer.

To the last person on the face of the planet to talk about personal responsibility, but I.

Will correct, this is a pretty wild story here about this guy was aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship and died.

How did he die?

You say, well, he was served thirty three alcoholic drinks at the bar on the cruise ship. So who's that fault here?

And they are in the family is suing, he is suing, and apparently it's very convoluted, and here to sort of it all out for us. He is our legal expert. He has been a defense he's been a prosecutor. He's a defense attorney. He knows all, sees all. He was our good friend, Jeremy Rosenthal. Jeremy always our pleasure.

How are you?

You're good?

So so Jeremy. First off, the question has to be asked what happened with with personal responsibility is does that come into play here?

That's boring?

I mean, you know, look, can I really be held accountable for anything I do after like.

The eighth drink, I don't think.

I don't think so.

I think at that point it's everybody else around me his problem big time.

Yeah, so I've claimed my wife before. I don't know what it ain't my fault. Yeah, and we don't know.

Yeah, boy, I mean, were these thirty three drinks at once? Was it thirty three drinks.

Over eight days?

Uh?

Probably it was at once?

Right?

You know that that that's kind of what you're arguing to the jury. But this is what you would call and and really it's not what you would call a dram shop case, which is that's where you're over serving somebody and then they go get in the d w I accident. But it's but it's real comparable because here, you know, when you're when you're on a boat and you're out.

At sea, you know, it's man, it's.

It's tough, you know, uh, you know, because you're you have limited availability to medical resources. You know, somebody can hurt themselves, somebody could fall.

Into the ocean. So yeah, there's probably some liability here.

So I mean, let's take the case on land. And I know it's different because it's usually you know, when someone gets in a call. But would but say that's is anything like this? I guess I'm looking for precedence. Is there any sort of case like this before, whether it was on a boat or on land, where somebody you know, got served too many drinks at the bar, bartender gave them too many drinks and not that they went and got in the car, but they went them

Yeah, I don't know.

I don't know about that quite that specifically. I wouldn't be shocked if it was. But yeah, it's a pre you know, over serving alcohol is that's a thing, you know. And and not only that, but there's licensing issues with the alcohol and beverage, uh, you know, commissions and and all that stuff.

I mean, so that this is hot water it really is.

Pardon the pun, but yeah, I mean, you know, and especially and you've got here this is under maritime law, which which makes it a little bit weird. But this is the type of thing that just makes missus Rosenthal never ever ever want to get on.

A cruise boat.

You know, she just this is reason number four hundred and seventeen. I mean, have you seen the I think there's a Netflix documentary it's called The Poop Boat.

Yes I saw it, Yes, yeah, but that But the thing is Jeremy and I think where they're going to I think we're Royal Caribbean is going to have a little problem here is that this guy gets all liquored up and then he starts jumping bad on this on the crew and stuff because he was trying to find his room and he got lost and then he got belligerent with people, and so then they were trying to hold him down. They pepper sprayed him, and then they

Sounds like they were ready, doesn't it.

This has happened before, right you think you think, oh.

No, get the get the bottle out, get the what was it called?

Yeah, you know, get the what is it?

Hello?

Per at all? I don't know.

There's probably some pharmacy tech out there listening that's just making fun of us. But but yeah, you know that they've got that ready for you. No, this is I mean, this is why alcohol is heavily regulated. It's because it's dangerous stuff. And not only that, you know, it's pretty foreseeable that when somebody kind of gets this way that something like that's gonna happen. But yes, the counter argument's

So yeah, I think there's problems here. It probably gets settled. You know, there is a set of law, Like I said, it's maritime.

You got to sue people in this one court in Florida and they handle all of these things so they get all the fun cruise cases.

Boy, yeah, yeah, that'll.

Be you know what, that'd be a fun case to go, do you know, we'd have to do an experiment with the jury, you know, take them out and say all right, well let's see how you guys are after see you see how many of you guys can make.

It to thirty of these, the.

Whole number of over Like, like you said, I got eight drinks in me. I don't even know who I am anymore, let alone thirty.

That's but look, I mean, anybody who's been on a cruise knows that you sign up for the all you can drink package, you pay it up front, and you know, I'm you know, when Ed does that, he gets his money's worth, and so does everybody. Everyone wants to get their money's worth and say, hey, I paid, but boy, I got over on them, and it sounds like a like a challenge. I didn't really want this drink. But ah, right there, right there, you know, what are you what.

Are you gonna do? You know, I mean you can't you know, you don't want to waste.

I mean it's for the ecology, right, and it's for the environment at that point, correct, you know?

Yeah, I'd be foolish not to, right. That's kind of the conversation you have with yourself.

So how do you think, how do you see this thing playing out?

Jeremy?

And in reality?

Yeah, I think it settles, you know, I mean, these are kind of these are some ugly facts.

Here, and and you know, you got the bad publicity.

And look, I mean these cruise companies they're no strangers to bad ink, right they they kind of get it all the time. And and you know, I think they're just kind of looking to get this out of the headlines. Or maybe maybe they'll lean into it and maybe they're like, see, you know, come and we'll you know, we'll we'll overserve you too, or we'll overserve your you.

Know, your spouse to you good sir. Yeah, looking to push him over the edge.

I mean, you know, lose what is it lose lose one hundred and fifty pounds overnight, you know, so or three hundred and thirty pounds overnight as it was with this guy.

This guy was pretty pretty big dude.

Oh I say, I didn't catch that as a big Yeah.

Yeah, he can put him.

I mean he's a big boy.

I think, you know, whereas my limit would be like five or six or seven or whatever his was, he might be in the teams, you know, but uh.

But yeah, still well below thirty three. You ever try to keep up with a guy like that, it's not pretty Oh.

I uh, Well, Rocky played professional football, but he and I've never gone out and tried to get a drink on. But one time I was drinking with one of the Bengals, uh, former offensive lineman. And and forget about I'm I'm I'm five. I'm five to seven on a on a good day, Jeremy in one hundred and fifty five pounds. I'm out there trying to carry on with a guy who's like six' five three thirty, right that wasn't, happen and he was drinking beers like they were in.

Thimbles.

Yeah, now once you said offensive, LINE i. KNEW i knew how this thing turned. OUT i, mean, yeah, YEAH i did that one time with a Former Texas tech offensive. Lineman and it was at a. CONFERENCE i was supposed to speak the next day AND i didn't BECAUSE i was in the field position in my hotel room for nine. Hours just just, yeah praying for for whatever mercy and yeah tomorrow.

Up, okay but what are you supposed to do if you go to this bar and then you grab a couple and you go to that.

Got a text from my, old my old dear friend right Of. Mojo oh, yeah right of the Late Gray Mojo ye talking and she was A chargers. Fan but when they were still that's where they used to live, in, Uh San. Diego Ryan, leaf that was a big, one ridiculous blah blah blah came To San, diego AND i guess everybody there was about ready to jump off a bridge because he did not do.

Squat, yeah and he's Had LIKE i actually talked to him BECAUSE espn we employed him for a little bit AND i think we did A bowl game LIKE i was ON, tv he was on radio or. Something we talked and he was like a nice. Guy BUT i think he was one of those guys that was just like something you just catch him on the wrong.

Now, NO i MEAN i didn't watch him, play BUT i think you know folks would Say Greg cook, again not not his, fault but like JUST, I i guess maybe the better way of of saying it is someone whose career didn't really pan out the way anyone dreamed it, Would AND i Think Greg cook would probably be a part of. That, again no fault of his, own but happened to get the wrong injury and at the wrong era that couldn't be repaired the proper, way and it cost.

Him well that's a And i'm sure you've heard it as as well AS i, have but that if that would have happened to him to, date that he would have he probably wouldn't have even missed a.

Season, yeah it's, awful. Terrible we Mentioned Johnna. Carter these are all local. Examples, WELL i feel like a. Guy what do you think About Ken.

GRIFFY J i heard you guys talking about that, earlier.

Com lamb all right back With eddie And rocky a little while, longer but rog before we get out of. Here always loved to talk to OUR abc friends and we had A we talked to our lawyer friend about this story earlier in the. Show but here to give us the ins and outs of what happened on This Royal caribbean cruise. Ship Alex stone FROM Abc and what a weird.

Story, Alex, yeah it really. Is and we're hearing from the family attorneys now as. Well, yeah a big part of going on a cruise, Is i'm sure you guys have been talking, about is drinking a. Lot and family members Of Michael, virgil the thirty five year old, guy say that this is a case of not your normal drinking on board a cruise ship and that it led

Top the, kid he was not a big. Drinker he's not used to.

This so the lawsuit, says after a while waiting for that, bar The virgil's seven year old son and wife grew. Impatient they went to check on the cabin, status and That virgil left the bar while they were away and stumbled down the hallway and got into. Trouble and there is cell phone video of him violently kicking a ship's

Back haines saying the, Video, Michael i'm agitated kicking a. Door it's totally out of. Character for, Help we're not going to good. Behavior but that's not who he, was a person who the lovely. Father they both believed that he was a gentle. Giant so that's what alcohol does to. You it transforms you into a different, person especially that much.

Alcohol so they claim he, was while being held, down injected by onboard security with a sedative to calm. Him down and he, died and The La County Medical examiner his role that his death was a homicide death in the hands of another, person saying number of factors played a, role but his death was due to body compression while he was being restrained and held. Down obesity and alcohol played a role as. Well but the family is Suing Royal.

Understand ending that essentially everything that happens on board is trek. Digitally there will be a digital footprint of, everything including when the rooms were, available how many drinks for, sure.

That sort of. Thing, so, guys the cruise line is TELLING abc that it's saddened by his, passing that it worked with authorities on their, investigation but The Royal caribbean won't be commenting further because of pending. Litigation but the family Blames Royal. Caribbean they say they serving him thirty three drinks when he was clearly drunk and then injecting him with a sedative and all. That they claim that this was unneeded and should not have gone down that,

Filed what DO i think was more the?

Cause was it the alcohol or the sedatives or the sedatives mixed with the. Alcohol but then you also said it was he died by you, say as suxiation or just.

Yeah the compression on his. Chest, WELL i mean The ultimately they are arguing That Royal caribbean should not have served him thirty three, drinks that that was the starting point where even if you've got the unlimited drink, package that at some point the servers have to, say you know, what you've had thirty three, drinks like we're? Done and did they say that that is and that the main crux of their argument is that they overserved, them they

Well now do they know did he get these all at the same bar or is any and how we're talking, earlier usually eight different bars that you could go here and get, one go over here and get three and then come back to the other one later.

Do we know.

That, yeah the allegation is that he went to the one bar that they directed him to while waiting For and we don't know what timeline was this an, hour was it two? Hours that's not yet, clear but it seems at least the allegation is that it was all at one bar that he sat, there and you have to assume it was. Shots you'd be very full after drinking thirty three. Beers i'm kidding that that in a fairly short amount of, time that that he downed a lot of likely shots in that one.

Bar all right with, That, alex we will let you. Go, buddy thanks so.

Much you got to pick.

Case and you, know and they're and they're claiming that this fellow wasn't a big. Drinker, Well i'm, sorry, MAN i had you AND i can put a couple of drinks.

Away. Yeah.

Uh if you're not a quote unquote big drinker and you're sitting just doing shots in a, bar you're going. DOWN i don't care how big of.

A guy you, are going down. Fast. Yeah if you can get past, eight then then you are an experienced, drinker, right and an experience drinker and getting past like three or four you know WHAT i mean for, sure that's what that's my alonely thirty.

Three they're trying to this guy off as some kind of, angel you, Know mormon dude or. Something AND i would argue that you have to have some experience doing a little drinking if you're throwing back to quila. Shots because you got to guess he's on a cruz going To mexico that he's probably said they're doing tequila.

SHOTS i would bet that's part of the.

Equation so, Well god bless. Him, man that's the way to go over the.

Family but you, KNOW i, mean, look you brought up. Earlier at some, point you can't blame everybody for what. Happened you have a lot of personal responsibility wrapped up in, that and it's, unfortunate but that's the.

Case.

Okay, well in other, news rock crime related. News go to the police. Blotter since there we're just talking about this. Stuff this, HAPPENED i believe it. Was, YEAH i was a couple of days Before, thanksgiving and, hey look maybe a little early For christmas, caroling ain't gonna.

Lie, yeah, question have you ever Been christmas caroling at any point in your?

Life, Well, kime, well it is like a, joke a.

Joke.

Yeah we.

Some friends of ours used to always have a bunch of us over to their house and, LIKE i don't remember if it Was Christmas eve a couple it was right Around, christmas but we would all one friend lived down the, street and then we would all get together there and then just walk up to his house because they only lived about five houses away or whatever it.

Here, yeah.

But.

Rock this happened In, Annapolis. Maryland so these three twelve year old, GIRLS i guess they, Decided, hey It's thanksgivings close enough To, christmas let's get everybody in the holiday. Spirit so these three little twelve year old girls go out and start singing Some christmas, carols well until they

CAROLS i don't need Any christmas. Cirls no we're going to sing, anyway, Right, no you're.

Not.

Uh the police recovered a loaded forty cow glock from his. Home he was exhibiting loud and belligerent. Behavior when he was, questioned he did admit that he did point the gun at the. Girls so he's now facing big time assault, charge which is, weird some kind of menacing.

Charge whoa, wha? Whoa where they were they good or are they? Annoying because if they're, annoying that's why he has a.

Case, well if they were, bad then just shoot.

Them MAYBE i shoot. Him i'm all for fire in a warning. SHOT a couple of rounds over, yeah two three feet over their. Head, yeah, No i'll get the.

Message but another nicer news this happened In. Florida the police they are trying to solve the mystery behind some suspicious. Incidents it's around The orlando area between during one week in Late, november in seven separate, circumstances a mask man was captured on surveillance video get some people's ring cameras and, whatnot delivering piece a piece of wood and a dollar bill on front porches of. Homes what you would put a piece of wood and a dollar bill on their front. Porch,

What's the dollar? FOR i don't, know to pay the toll to the boat man or, whatever midnight stalk.

Orwever you, know you don't, know And i'm, look illness is not, Funny but you don't know what goes on people's minds as they decide they're going to do stuff like.

That, Right, yeah that's the. Thing maybe maybe this is like just some prank THAT i don't think is, funny but maybe he thinks it's, funny or maybe the guy's nuts or maybe he's really nuts and good harm. You, well that's the.

Thing you never know when it's going to go from cute nuts to create to bad. Situation, yeah, right as opposed to firing squeezing off a few routes at some twelve hour, girls that's perfect to be, reasonable but, yes with, that we check in with traffic and, weather what's going.
