#107 Pass The Stuffing ...BTW...Your Friend Is Dead

jangle complete Boys about in Town. We don't have to do that, and we'll play it next week because we're technically taking off this week, but we're not because this is last week's podcast. See it's weird. We didn't give you a podcast last week. This podcast you're hearing right now on a Monday, November twenty five was supposed to be recorded last Thursday, but and this week you were

supposed to have off. By the way, I just got an email from I won't say a direct boss, but someone who's higher up in the company that we worked with for many years, and an email went out something that had to be approved, and then they emailed me a helpful suggestion, Hey, why don't you make sure you tell everyone else in the morning show? Right? So, I said, oh, of course, because I absolutely would. It's the kind of

thing of course would tell everybody else. So I said, of course absolutely, we know what the problems would be if I didn't tellnybody. And then he wrote back again and said, yes, that way you avoid the bubbah blah and bub I didn't want the first email. I acknowledged in my email that I absolutely knew to do the first email, And now you're coming back at me hard with a third email explaining to me why it's important to do the thing in the first email that I

already knew the importance of doing. You're being scolded over email if no, I'm being advised that like I should know something but I know it, making it look like I don't know it, which I feel like I don't want to go back now and go do it like I said, yep, totally get it. Don't go back. No, I'm gonna just leave it now, leave it. But I feel like that person shouldn't have sent the third email. You let people bother you. That's why we have a podcast.

That's right, See this right, it's a stack of ship stop with a lot of uh okay, So, oh my god, what's going on here, Why is this thing playing in my pocket? It was vibranty, an old episode of ours is playing in my pocket, and that happened to me on the plane. It's it's so embarrassing. Yeah, it's at the most inopportune moments. It happened. Oh my god, it happened at my aunt Jenny's funeral. Back up and agree

with me. It was gonna wait and we have to wake and all of a sudden, like someone's phone goes off. The actually the priest had come in and start doing some kind of a blessing and a prayer, and all of a sudden, don't don't You're not in no wise. It's like the iPhone standard someone who's lazy enough to not change it. I got it. That sounds a lot like you going make that your ring tone. Then you just interrupt people your ring tone. So yeah, that was

embarrassing anyway. Sorry, Yeah, but your phone goes off in your pocket too, And it's always on hot radio. It always just goes off because you know what, it's usually the last app. Why do you think it is? I don't know. So what I did was I moved the app off of my homepage. So just to clarify. On an Android, you have a dock of four to six icons. I think of three. This whatever you can make as man as you want. And then I have the page and and it scrolls like a cube. It goes around

because you can make it do that. And so I put it first. I put it on a secondary page so it was in my pocket. It wouldn't get pushed, and it opened up. Then I deleted it. There was no shortcut on my desktop, and it would still open up. I think it's you know how like iPhone kills their own batteries. You buy a new phone and it makes the the phone slowdown. I think there's something with the I Heart radio app that it just knows to automatically open, kissing me off. I gotta be honest. I wonder if

it happens to other people too well. I know it's fine. Funeral, that's not a good time for that to happen. The funerals and my aunt Jennie's funeral. If we're gonna go in that direction, I think we should because this is a dilemma. Now. I had a similar dilemma in my family, oh a long time ago. Mike, I'm not gonna give you what, how, how it happened. But I'm gonna just

tell you why it's different once you explain yours. I had a grandmother who was I would say she was in her nineties or right about ninety, maybe eight, and it was clear she didn't have that much longer to live. She had some health problems, right she lost her daughter, My aunt passed away, and they didn't tell her because they knew her mind was going. She my aunt lived across the country, she barely saw her, didn't talk on a phone a lot. She probably would be like out

of sight, out of mine. Wouldn't think about it. And it worked out beautifully. That's well, I mean, sadly, my grandmother passed away, but we never had to tell her. We never had to tell her. It worked out beautifully. I mean, I mean she died. She died, and it worked out. But the plan I was a kid, so the plan worked out. I'd never say in the matter, well I wasn't a kid. But the point was it worked out because we knew my grandmother's health was failing. It was not the case in your slor. No. A

couple of months ago, my aunt Jenny passed. My aunt Jenny was eighty five years old, young for your family, very young. My family, a lot of them, thank god. They they blust into their nineties and who there hundreds. So and Jenny was married to my uncle Joe, who's ninety. Okay, Now my aunt Millie, it's nineties six. She has a CBD oil company and that's Millie. Oh c no longer a sponsor. I no, no longer a sponsor, So don't

hit the jingle. Right, So Million, Uncle Joe are brothers, but Millie, I'm pretty sure Aunt mill the brother and sister and Amilion and uncle Joe or brother and sister Emi, Uncle Joe ninety and of course Joe Jenny being Joe's wife. Well, well, my Aunt Millie knew her for the better part of fifty something years. Fifty years they lived across the street from one another. Did they still live across the street up until this point? But to that point, yeah, well

they will, okay. So recently my aunt uh was had to go into assistant living, so she's no longer living across the street from she lives. She lives about ten minutes away. Year old aunt in the home. Eight five year old aunt passes away. Yes, and around Uncle Joe. Yeah, yeah, I love it, love it. And And we're gonna see him for Thanksgiving. He's gonna be eating it. Yes, he was eating the three three brined. It's pre brined organic Willie Bird free range turkey coming from California, a sponsor you

pay full point. In fact, it's Monday, it's being delivered tomorrow. It's probably being killed right now. I would imagine a large part of our audience, me included, don't know what pre brine means means, but what is brining. Brining is when you you put it in a salt solution, you stick a bunch of needles in it, and it injects the skin and threw the skin into the into the meat, into the flesh with like a salty mixture. So doesn't

that doesn't sound right at all? It doesn't sound right from it tastes amazing because the male turkey, I'm assuming when you put the turkey in and when you we actually when you eat the turkey, it's extra juicy and extra flavorful from having salt in there. It actually keeps the turkey moist. I know, we hate that word. I don't mind the word moist. When you Brian a turkey. It's heaven. You don't like a nice moist towel out on a plane like the clean your face. Yeah, that's good.

So the express if we're side being sidetracked for a second, Yes, the pre brind organic free range. It's probably being killed down. It will be sent it's being fedexed to the house that my parents would get tomorrow. The corps is being FedEx But here's how it arrives. It arrives in a beautiful package. The trumpets. No, it goes here. I got turkey neck, you do, but you're also pulling on your neck. I'm making a gobble sound. They arrives with gobbling trumpets.

And on Tuesday, the turkeys. It shows up fresh. So it's never frozen frozen. How does it get crossed country with up? It's just refrigerated. It's fedext in in a refrigerate, refrigerated, yes container, it's on ice, a dry ice, but not frozen, not frozen, not fresh turkey. And and and it shows up cleaned right and pre brined, okay, And it's just all it has to do is go in the fridge for two days and a Thursday morning, my mother throws the bird in the oven and it comes out amazing anyway.

But that's I have one more question though, So I get turkey for free at the supermarket. They give you like whatever size turkey for So the question is, is the cost of the turkey that much better than the free turkey? Is it's three hundred dollars better? And I'm gonna bring that up because we have a hotel situation similar here's well, here's the problem with it, same situation, most of them. Most I don't splurge for much during the year for the bird. I splurge for the bird

because everybody's heard about that. You haven't heard about the bird about everybody's heard about the bird, And so I splurge on the bird, splurge on the bird. But the price it sounded like somebody splooges on the bird. That's what I was alluded to before. The reason why it's so expensive is because of the shipping. Unfortunately, the actual price of the turkey. Listen, it's it's more expensive than a regular hunt because it's it's it's it's organic. You

know that you're paying more for that. It's fresh. Turkey's running off of my neighborhood. Because this one comes from Sonoma County, California. It's not wine in it. It's called guys, look it up. It's called the Willie Bird. Williams Sonoma

actually sells it, right. But why can't they give you an East Coast bird not chipping because these this specific turkey is raised in Sonoma County and apparently it lives a wonderful life like the movie, every time Thanksgiving comes, a turkey loses its wings and its How do we get on this topic. We're talking about my aunt. We're not talking about Jenny. Oh, we're talking about Jenny to the person who made the float chart for us, like fifty episodes ago. We're ready for this episode to be

the float good luck, good luck? All right? So my uncle Joe, So my aunt Jenny passes a couple of months ago, and she'll never get that bird. A big family fight ensues between my brother and sister and I versus my parents and me whatever, because my parents are like, we can't tell Aunt Millie, Like, what are you talking about. She's gotta come to the wake, she's gotta come to the funeral. She's gotta no, it's too much to transport her back and forth from the assistant living place. Here's

the problem. So you aren't afraid to tell her. You were too lazy to tell her. It's not that, it's I you don't want to break the woman's heart too well, I'd lead with that story because you're leading with it's a slip, it's a lot, and the thing is. But the thing is, my aunt has all her marbles. My aunt is very star old, sharp, as attacked. I'll let her call an uber and get over that. So she's so with it, okay, But my parents are like, listen, you used to steal. This was Uncle Joe's decision. I'm

like Uncle Joe's ninety. I'm like, take the reins and make the decision to tell her. But she's she's got to be part. So now we're arguing, and the whole thing during the funeral, during the wake, during all that, so at this point you didn't tell it was World War had the wake and did not tell mill right, So the entire family was was was like disagree and

disagreement over it. So I said to my parents, I want to go Facebook live father Milly on Facebook live father versus my sister, Like why did we not tell aunt? Millie about Aunt Jenny. Where did your father stand on this? Today? Dot's not getting involved in family first. Oh he's stepping back. Listen, Dan Joe, uncle ter tell here's the one time. I'm like,

they're gonna they're gonna tell her. In a couple of weeks, they're gonna show up at that it's just a living and they're gonna tell her it all happened so quick she missed everything. Yeah, I'm like, how's that gonna go over? So anyway, all that time passes by, and then finally they say, my uncle Joe went to go visit my Atta Milly and didn't have the heart to tell her, so they came up with this wonderful plan singing telegram

to tell him Millie at the Thanksgiving table. Oh no, because they're like, you know what, we're going to Millie's coming to visit. Thanks're gonna be at the house. Can you pass the potatoes and picking a passing? We had a passing into family and Jenny's dead. What the fuck are my parents and Millie? Can you pass the stuffing? Speaking of which they had the stuff and Jenny before they put her out on too much? Now you stop it. The giblets, all right, I got a gravy pun. It's

just it. It bothered me so much. I was really I was so incensed by the entire handling of this from beginning to when you want to do after dinner? I hope at least something they don't know when. As soon as we get this once the trip to fan kicks in, I said, I said, guys, this is all wrong, and now you've procrastinated so much that she's gonna show up? And where's Aunt Jenny? Funny story, Aunt Milly. You know

how some people lie in staidy have a dentist appointment. Well, Jenny didn't want to come to Thanksgiving dinner, sola thing. I'm like, are you going to continue this ruse like, Oh, she's sick, but Uncle Joe and Carmina here her phone? Does she never call? But she asked for her? How's Jenny? Right? Okay? So realistically I know what she family. I have to ask the question, how much time does Aunt Millie have left? Five I'm hoping if she's in good health, at some

point she's gonna ask what that's the problem. She's Aunt Jenny mobile, like did she walk around? So why isn't Aunt Jenny coming to visitor? What if she develops in her mind a feud against Aunt Jenny for not coming to visitor. She had been asking, and Uncle Joe's like, oh, she's homesick, she's sick, she couldn't come. Vince. Jenny is mad at you. She never gonna forgive you. Leave it at that, So I so, I'm like, guys, this is one lie compounding another on top of another. Wait till Christmas?

Well it all ended last week. Oh uh so what was going to be a huge problem at the Thanksgiving table? Thank god? My parents said, let's let's talk to step In, Tony and Roseanne. They went went to go visit my Emily. Against Uncle Joe's wishes. It was, yeah, he thanked my Uncle Joe thanked my my parents. After this, he's My parents went in and they said to Emily, is it look well? She said, she actually asked for her. She was where's Jenny because she's been she's been asking the

last couple of weeks. Was Jenny, where's Jenny? So my my father or nine my father looked at my mother and I looked at my father and we're like There was a long pause and who said it? My mother said, whose family is it? It's my mother's side. She's got to do it this. Yeah, Jenny passed a month ago. Yeah. And then my aunt looked at her dead in the eye and said, I knew it. No anger though, oh there was anger. No what the what? The followed by tears,

and then she had a chance to grieve. Thanks. My father says, you want the whole story, We'll tell you the whole story. And they told her the entire story, from beginning to end through everybody in the bus. Yeah, but they don't want to tell you. Talked, talked to Joey. He told Mikey, Mikey, Tolvinny, they had a whole thing. I just think it's brody. It's just just pulling. You don't want you don't want to give an old personal heart attack. You don't, so you caught bet you in

the rock and a hard place. I don't. I don't know how I would have handled it. Actually I know I would have. I would have just went all in and I would have honestly, you know, all kidding aside, I would have properly told my aunt when it happened. You gotta figure she's eighty. She had to get married in the twenties. They got married early, right, he probably

knows if a sixty five years fifty. I told you at the beginning of this years fifty something close to sixty, you gotta give it the option to get her ass out of bed and go to the wake. If she says I can't, I can't. You could write a note, but just but it got so bad that it was gonna go be thanks At that point, someone's gonna go, you know what, let's just talk about policy exactly. I was threatening to walk on Thanksgitting. I was really gonna tell my family. I'm like, you know what, you all

handle this. I'm not coming to Thanksgiving this year. Here go eat the turkey. I'll mail you a turkey, have a party. Because I didn't want it was so it was gonna be so uncomfortable. So thank god it's a little less uncomfortable because they they broke the news to her last week. I mentioned this quickly on The Big Show. But this is the long force. You know what, I'm not gonna be able to I'm not gonna well, I might talk politics on Thanksgiving, but I will be having

a turkey leg at Disney World on Thanksgiving. Wait a second, you're going to be out of town. I will be at the happiest place on earth as opposed to the most stressful place on earth, which is Thanksgiving dinner with the families. So we decided, we decided, you know what's just got to think, which it's too much, too much. So if I talk politics, all kids feel the same way I do about everything. Sin's great mostly so that's cool. So no, no drama will be in a public place.

I wonder if if has there ever been a difficult or uncomfortable moment where in a predicament that you had gotten into similar to this, Well, I told you, I told well, yeah, we couldn't tell my grandmother that got my aunt died that right, and then, um, you know other other Thanksgiving uncomfortable Thanksgiving woman. Oh yeah, so uh two years ago. I don't care if they hear it or not. Um. So, my wife is one of three kids, three three girls. So I have two sister in laws

and two brothers and two brother in laws. So there's six of us, right, we all have kids, six of us. So every other year we go to dinner at my father in law's place. He picks the restaurant and we and we we go. We go with the wife's family. Then the other year we go to my mom for Thanksgiving. Okay, so every every single year we go to the same place. My grandfather in law loves the same place. They have

a private room. We get a long table and everyone sits around this long rectangular table, right, and we all eat and it's great and the food is great. Everybody's gone. Someone decided not gonna name any names in the family. Someone said, will be a good idea. Make it a little more intimate. Let's break the tables up into like you know, round tables here, a square table there, and this way everyone can mingle, the kids can sit together and the okay, well you know how many grandkids there are?

No how many table and they put them at a table for six. So that was awkward when one of my kids had nowhere to sit. Uh you know where the the people at my level, the parents, not the grandparents my level. The six of us set at a table for five, so everybody was crushed. So we got there and the other four are sitting there and his one seat left. So I said to my wife, I go, how you sit there? That's fine, fun them, and I go and sit with kids with grandpa, my father in law, right,

his girlfriend. One of my nephews who didn't who So I said, with the nephews who are tweeters, they're not old enough for the old for the parents and too old for the kids table. And then one of the kids that had no room. So basically, after we spoke about on previous table, I'm at the leftover table over and I love my nephews. It wasn't that it was like who doesn't have a chance somewhere else. I'm at that table. But the whole night I'm looking over at

my brothers in law and sisters a long going. Oh, here were guys doing over there? What are you laughing about? There were here? Yeah, so that was awkward. That's when we sort of decided, you know what, We're gonna go to Disney World. But I have the same prom with Disney World. If I might add, you know, I have three kids, but wife and three kids. People, it's five people. You go on a roller coaster everything four four, it's too two and dad to two and dad usually so

I get to know strangers. So first time at Disney and then after ride to go. You know that guy was from St. Louis because I get to know him. Yeah, I get that. That's my recommendation. By the way, have four kids or two kids, have six kids if you want the five thing only works that one of them doesn't want to go on the ride exactly if someone's scared. Otherwise you're on the Little Mermaid ride under the sea, all by yourself under the sea. So but I'm looking

forward to it. It'll be it'll be a lot of fun. And I think I think I might get some seat companionship. I think we can do some rotating a little bit this time. I think UH got a lot of UM. I got a lot of unwanted emails. Sometimes I get a you know, I got a lot of extra spam, extra direct mail, direct marketing. But this one I actually welcomed with open arms. I'm like, hey, thanks for the email. Figs. They this is the subject line was just in insanely

cozy pajamas from our friends at Figs. Now. This is like a Now Figs is basically what we talked about. We talked about them, and we're they're back there. When we talked about the people that we love to honor in our in our world, the nurses, doctors, dentists, the people who work in the medicinal and healthcare industry. Um, we want people who are scrubs. We want to get back to them, right, of course we do. So why not give them something a little bit more comfortable in

scrub form? And might I say, because you know I have them already fashionable? Yeah, fashionable scrubs. There are higher qual They're not that that thin everyone wears the same blue or green. You know, they don't fit their shapeless that's so stagnant and old school. These have nice trim

around the collar. They're little, a little shiny. If you really want to surprise somebody in one of these industries, you're gonna hook them up with hook yourself up from with scrubs from Figs because they are so freaking cool. Then speaking of the material, anti microcrobial protecting from germs and bacteria, Uh, it's got moisture wicking fabric so the sweat isn't gonna get like a puddle up all over

the all over the scrubs. And they have yoga waist bands so you can you know, they just they just snap on you like down all the time. They're really for everyone, and every time you shop at Figs, they give scrubs to healthcare providers in need around the world through this Threads for Threads initiative, So Figs gives back. So you're really doing a great thing for people around in the world who need this stuff the most. Uh. That's why we love Figs and that's what sets them

apart from these other companies. Um. But here's the best part. Figs is gonna make it easy and they're gonna give you fifteen percent off your first purchase by going to their website where Figs dot com, W E, A, R F I G s dot com and put in our code boys at checkout. Yeah, enter our code boys at check out. You get your fifteen off your first purchase. UM at where Figs dot com and get ready to love you scrubs instead of hating them. Now, can I

I got? I want to I wanna. I'm very upset about a phone call I had, but I want to get to that in a minute. I want to talk about the dinner. We had a great week in Miami, So let me set the stage. UM. The company put us up in a hotel for a couple of nights in Hollywood, Hollywood Hollywood Beach, which is a beautiful area, beautiful beach. It's a little quieter, it's not near the cruising in the fast cars. It's somewhere north of Miami and somewhere south of Fort Lord, right. So I stayed

at the Diplomat Beach Resort Hotel. UH. They gave us beautiful UH accommodation. Accommodation I had I had wrapped around un deck. Could see the video of what I where I stayed at David Brody on Instagram press. I liked it scary. UH and Gandhi wanted a more UH central, not central located in the heart of South Beach located hotel. They wanted a place where the action was, where the ferraris were pulling up in the front. I'll give you a million examples if I mean, I did this on

the fifteen minute morning show earlier. Were hanging on one second. So rather than take the the company provided room, which I freaking loved. At the Diplomat they gave me by the way, they gave us food. Yeah, I got chocolate covered cherries and blueberries and raisins and and cashews, fantastic um. By the way, here's a question in the room when they give you the gift bag. I didn't get that, Okay, I got okay, I got the toad bag, all the food. I got a diplomat towel. It must be nice to

have diplomat on your side. And then I had by the way, no one got that Hamilton's reference the last time. That's another Hamilton reference. I got one of those water bottles, the steel ones, you know. And uh Now on that table was a card gift for David Brodie. It's all in the video. You could see it. But there were two bottles of regular heavy on water, giant bottles and two giant bottles of fart water. Now is that water part of my gift? Or is that water? It's here?

But if you open it with charging you what is it is? I wasn't sure, so I didn't open it. And then on the last day I said, effort, I had a great time whatever they charged treat myself to what. But he's like, here's what I did under my door. They slipped the bill. It said zero. So then I opened the bottle of water. Good, here's your final bill, right, and then you can always pin it on the house cleaning. I checked out already. I don't know whatever happened. None

of my repons. Because I was there for three days. I did to do not disturb thing. I put the donot the stubs on the chip minute I check in at I don't want you in my room. I don't want to have to lock up my suitcase every time I leave the room. I just go in and make myself turned down for nothing, Right, I have enough towels and toilet paper. I'm good, you're good. So no one was in my room to say whether or not I

went in the mini bar. I had to. You're saying like, no, that's probably part of the gift, but I didn't chance it. And I can't take the word with me on the plane because I didn't check a bag. I was like, how much liquor can I take? So that'd be worth it? Stayed there. I stayed there, and I stayed in Miami. It would be the equivalent of if I'm hanging out. If you heard the fifteen minute morning show today, we apologize. We talked about this. It was it was, it doesn't matter.

It was if you live in De Moines, can and I'm showed up in de Moines. I stayed in the Moine. Brodie stayed in Ames. I stayed forty minutes north of where Scary was in another beautiful part of If I'm staying in Cleveland, Brodie stayed in Akron. That's had no problem with. If I'm staying in the Times Square, New York City, Brodie stayed in Long Island, I'll keep going. If I stayed in Philly, Brodie state in Point is

I stayed in a lovely area with nice restaurants. Amazing restaurants at the Diplomat Hotel, by the way, two of them owned by Jeffries and carry in. Brodie stayed in Orange County in San Diego. Who are the restaurants at the Diplomat are? Were owned and and and and and founded by Jeffries and Carrion who if you if you listen in order, you probably remember I said, I used to work for him. He's the only famous person I know that isn't from radio. So I felt weird eating

in his restaurants. I have to tell you they were fantastic. But anyway, I stayed there, but my whole we stayed in the middle of it. You stayed at the bougie place. Don't call it bougie. Stop it. I stayed in Miami. It doesn't matter where I stayed. It doesn't matter. Does The point in this conversation is definition. Who goes who goes to who? No? No, no, Brodie, Brodie Brodie. You're missing the point. Yeah. The aspiring to be a higher

class than one is derived from bourgeoisie, meaning class. If we're talking about location only, forget about where I stayed. The location was fine, you did stay. Talking geographically speaking, do you guess where the action is? You know where the action is? Not so? But I had the action I wanted. I wanted a qual You wanted more action. You wanted to hang out with me my friends. But not because it was South Beach. Gandhi was with me, But not because it was where the action was. It

was because where you are, that's where the No. But where we were, where the chefs were, where the action was, where the party was, where the where the great rooftop bars. I had five star hotels in the lobby the steakhouse. By the way, there was a steakhouse that's very well respected called Prime in the lobby of the Diploma point. And what I said, let's have dinner there. You said, Pep, I'm going to out beach. Point is you have to

to where the action is. Um, I can't get a bunch of people where we are to come with you are? So you paid for that room, correct? I did, because to me, it's location, location, location. You you chose. I will pay a higher price to be in the location. You chose the Williams Sonoma Turkey of hotel rooms over my free to hurt turkey. I got a free turkey and and a delicious turkey. There's nothing wrong with rights. And you had the Willie Bird hotel room that you

paid more for. Your room was building a weekend nest. You want to You had a pre briant hotel room. But I want to be where the nest is. My eggs are right, the eggs are in that I was under the sea. You up where the people are. So if you want to come hang with it, I did. So it costs me. You're gonna suck it up uber right each way, which I did, right, But you know a noble effort. Brodie and I hung out both nights. One night was just to drink met all you drunk friends.

I had my one drink and then the next night I went out to dinner with everybody right coming back and forth. Brody commuted to my party. But I spent a hundred dollars on Uber. No you know what? Maybe maybe yes, because you spent six It was we got we got a discount, so I mentioned the other thing or no. The point is we got a discount, and you shouldn't be You shouldn't have a problem with taking an Uber to meet your friends if you're the one who's the outcast who decided no, no, no, no, I

wasn't the outcast. You guys left me flat. You left me, and I got you the room so free I got think. I don't care about free action because I don't want to hang out in Aims or Akron or no offense to those towns, you know what. I like those place I don't want to. Yes, have great restaurants in Acron, and I don't want to hang out on Long Island by the way, no one, it should be nice to Long Island the huge part of our I don't want to hang out in Cherry Hill. I want to hang

out in Cherry Hill's got great cheesesteaks. No offense, that's not where the action was. Okay, no offense to Cherry Hill. Cherry Hill isn't right on the ocean in Florida where they wrap around massive window. I had a thirty foot glass windows, uh that and wrapped around the with a view of the water. This is the fact that you make it sound like I was in a hut. I want convenience? Was I not in the taco bar the extra closest side of taco bar? Well, that place. We're

gonna talk about taco bar in a minute. I'll talk about it right now. This is the kind of crap you get when you stay up in the area that that's not true. It's one place you're telling me there's no there's no places that give you bad service in Bougieville. I'm sure there is. Okay, then don't say it's the area. Well, this is the problem. We had a taco but let's talk about taco balls. So scary scary. We we get in off the cruise ship. We were on Norwegian Encourse.

Just the night that we all spent in Hollywood Beach, Florida, right, Okay, the one night that everybody stayed there. So as we're taking the ride from the port where the ship was, Danielle gets hungry. Danielle says, I'm hungry. So we all agree on Mexican food. So Scary goes, all right, I'm gonna go and yelp, I'm gonna find the best Mexican places,

highest review in Mexican places near the hotel. So he finds one place called taco stand at one place called Taco Bar, t joint tacos Gondi loved because said they were joint in it. So we go there. We have them drop us off a taco joint and it's like a Chinese takeout place. It's a little it's on the beach. It looks like it's has potential. Yeah, but it's the kind of place that if you at the beach, you'd walk up, you'd grab and go back in the sand.

It's the probably paper plates at nine o'clock at night. Not a good option, Not a good So now we have to walk back. Is the car's gone to Taco Bar, which was I don't know, a ten minute walk. But Danielle saw it and she's like, you know what, that place looks cool. It was very colorful. People had a vibe and atmosphere. So I'm like, I don't guys, it gets a four point oh in Google Reviews doesn't have the four point five. The taco joined by rights better judgment.

So we go and as we walk in ares an older white gentleman with gray hair and scary was are you scary? Was? It was some whoever was in the front uh says uh oh Hi, good evening, Like uh yeah, like we need a table, and the guys that I don't work here. He was just some guy standing. So we walked five feet and Danielle laughs at Gandhi, thinking the guy worked there. And some girl on the couch a listener of ours, and her boyfriend like, oh my god, you're Danielle big fan of the show. We put a

picture up on Instagram and go look at it. Very nice anyway, So we get our table. By the way, that was the best part of that night. So we get a table and the waiter. I don't think anyone saw this but me, because I was facing the direction of the waiter. The waiter so that there was I don't know, maybe twenty tables. They're like little tables four tops. Well maybe twenty tables maybe eighteen tables, and I would

say like eight or nine of them were empty. Well, I saw this guy take the order for the table that just sat down next to us, and then he was looking at the table behind us, and he looked at us. He was standing behind scary by about ten ft and he had to look like shit, I got sad again. So he's looking to the left and the right for some other server to come over and take our order, because he he was no, there are other there are other waiters, but none of them were there

at that moment. So he gave that look. He saw me looking at him, and he goes, oh, I guess I better take the table because it was in his section. For whatever reason, the hostess was like his table, his table, his table, rather than spreading it out. So I already knew, like up, there's a problem. So he comes over and asked for the order, and we ordered. We ordered drinks. I ordered uh, my usual dicoak mice. Uh it came with ice. That was a bad sign right there. We

ordered appetizers. We ort to chips with kiso, caeso with chips, and walk with chips right, and then we ordered our entrees Daniellow ordered like three tacos. I ordered a burrito. Scary, what do you order the taco taco salad? And then Gandhi ordered some burritos or something case is whatever she worded.

So the chips in caso come out and the caso is like the size like a three ounce ramick in those little cups that give you a little side of sauce, a little plastic, a little metal cup and the standard size. You know, the ones were talking right, a little tiny tiny right, it was maybe a smidge bigger than that. It made a metal like is that for one person? That's not an order? He can't like the chips. The chips were still there when the cheese was gone. The

were greasy and they were in pieces. They were like the top twelve chips hole and then you got crumbs. It was like because you know what they do, you know they fill those baskets, right, they scooped through the large bin of chips and they scrape along the bottom and they give you all the So it was like little nuggets of chips that if you dip them you got the cheese is on your finger. So I had to take the case so and poured on my plate and a little sauce on my plate so I could

dip it without putting it into the community cheese. Disgusting, Okay, it was decent case. So so the food's not out yet. We're at the twenty minute mark, but we have all these chips left because there's no fucking cheese. So we asked the guy, can we get another round of cheese and chips whatever it costs? Fine, Okay, Now it's forty five minutes, maybe almost I would say over fifty minutes. So we're all like, you know what, we have to do a show in the morning. This is getting out

of hand. Let's just get the food to go. He says, like everyone's like that at that moment. It was at that moment I knew there was going to be a bigger problem because now you're adding you're adding tasks right to an already overworked server. Right. So I said to the guy, look, hey man, it's been almost an hour. We just can we take the food home because we arout a minute away from plating it, right, So I'm like, well, please go put in boxes whatever. So then a guy

comes out who's running the food. He goes, hey, we already played in it. So I'm gonna give you the food. I'll bring you out boxes. So now he didn't make it to go what you could have done in the kitchen. But now I gotta box up my own food. Is that what you're telling me? I should have gone a fucking name my own food. Okay, But now you're like, oh, here's your food that we took an hour to make. You know, by the way, you could pack it up. And while you're at it, why don't you ask me

to fill a salt pepper shake your flazy fuck excuse me? Sir? Could you want go in the back and help yourself right to soda the refrigerator? Could you could? I should have? We could? We could some grape? All right? Did you while you're at it? Why don't you serve table sixteen? Because you're gonna passed by it anyway while you're packing up, bring this to the table. So the guy's like, I'll go get your boxes. So then Pedro comes out a waiter. It was Pedro. He comes out and he goes, oh,

I'm gonna get your box. So am I all right? Uh? But shouldn't you pack it up? He's like, well, I'm really slammeding a lot of tables. I said, you know, we waited almost an hour for the food. And he says, oh, the kitchen was backed up. Wait and then he said, so I get him a look like that's it. That's what I said. Clearly the kitchens backed up with the eight tables that we're eating there or whatever it was. I said, I I don't really I get the kitchen

was backed up. I said, but we didn't get to eat. So that's not that's not good. He's what do you mean? I said, So Daniel is like, you know, I'm not even gonna eat my food. I'm not even gonna pack it up. I can't eat at night, and I'm flying out. She's losing her she's losing her appetite. So I said, Pedo, look, uh take it off the bill. Take it. I said, she's not eating, so you gotta take it off the bill. And the rest of us did not get the experience

we were hoping for. So I would very much like to you to do something about this because telling me the kitchens backed up, I get it, but are it has ruined? We waited so long, we had all the second appetizes where it was so hungry and we were

in disagreement. By the way, we talked about this on the Big Show that half of us, Danielle and I wanted to just say this place, get out of here, because because nothing is more important than recouping my time, reclaiming my time, I had to get out of At this point, were like before the guy came over, though, Danielle said, I'm going to pick up the check and put a credit card down, So now Scary doesn't care about the money because it's not his credit card and

got excuse me. Gandhi says, yeah, Brodie, I would say something kind of like nicely. She's like, Brodie, I would say something. Your manager comes over. I said, can you get the manager because you're not helping me pedro. The manager comes over, he says, what seems to be the problem, So now I gotta rehash the whole story again. So he says, yeah, the kitchen was backed up, and what was his solution? Solution he says, he says, so he says, you know what, you want to do a shot with me?

I want to do a shot with you. I didn't get my dinner, I didn't get my meal and now you're asking me what if I were recovering alcohol? Like, you don't know what I am. I don't drink to begin with, but second third of all one of us got screwed. How is that settling the problem by offering me a shot of shit whiskey? Want to give you thirty cents worth of fucking tequilla? Yeah, hey, man, I'll give you a fucking h a shot of whervo. It's

just like querbo. We'll do a shot of that. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no no, I said, you gotta do something about the money. He's what do you have in mind? I go take something off the bill, take her food off the bill, and maybe the appetizers. Her food was like eleven dollars, right, So uh, he goes, well, let me see what I can do. Absolutely, you sure you don't want the shot? Yeah, buddy, I sure don't want absolutely either. Yeah, I'm sure I

don't want the shot. So now the manager doesn't come back. The waiter comes back and does that thing where all is good if you crouch down, the all good crouch down. She crouches down next to Dan. Yella goes, I'm very sorry. We uh we couldn't take the item off the bill because the check is already closed. So Daniel goes, all right, fine, I said, She goes, I just alright, fine. Oh no,

So I said, you gotta you gotta avoid it. She goes, well, if we if we avoid it, he goes, you know, let me see, he goes, he goes, he goes, I'll avoid it. He goes in the back. He comes back and he goes, Um, we didn't avoid it, because if we avoid it, your card will be charged twice until the void goes through, and then they'll be at you know, a hold on the money twice. So so I didn't avoid it. I said, So what are you doing for us? Oh there's nothing we can do. I said, that's where

you're wrong. Pedro all contray, and then I said, here's what you're gonna do for me. You're gonna go. First of all, don't so she doesn't want you to build twice. She should afford whatever the seventy eight dollars was twice on her credit card. She'll be good for a day. Plus it's a weekend, so the void's gonna clear first thing Monday morning. She's fine. Second of all, you should

have come over and asked her what she wanted. Not decided far, So you're gonna go avoid it and and and give Rewring it minus hard meal and our appetizer. And he goes, oh, I got I get a talk to my manager. So the manager comes out and he says, yeah, that's not what we can do. I I go, no, we're not leaving. At this point, Gandhi's like, get him brody. She's pissed now because he had first. He says the kitchen was backed up and doesn't apologize. Then the manager

wants to offer me a drink. Right then he won't avoid the check on top of bed, So Scary goes, I already called the ober, right, we gotta go. So he he gets up and Gandi's like, I'll go with you and then go and get in the uber. They're gone, So Danielle and I are standing there and the manager comes back and he says, uh, you know what, I'm really sorry. He has twenty dollars cash, So I go, I deal because you sucked us on eleven dollars, and

I go, you know what, that's fine. Danielle is happy she's paying for I wouldn't have accepted twenty dollars, but Danielle was happy with twenty dollars. I was happy for so getting the uber and scary goes your probably did you, Brody, I said, we got daniel we got twenty bucks, Brody, one free dessert, twenty bucks. Done so a taco bar. You and fuck you, Pedro. But you're in the fucking hospitality industry. About some hospitality. This is what disgusts me

about restaurants around America. They just aren't up to fucking They are not up to par. They did so many of them falls short, so far short. Yeah you know, I I'll give you another example of a good, a great restaurant. Went to this place upland not a sponsor sponsor. I was with my friends. Yeah, we were talking about what a great meal that was. Well yeah him but no, no, Claude, I told you about Claudette. No, that was the place we went to brunch twoyear the week before. I think

we talked about it all this. I thought there was someone you we took to run places like that where you just everything is on point and went the second the second they even get get a hint from you and your table that it's not there. We went to a great place on Saturday that was fine, and on Norwegian cruise we had no problems. Although you had the funniest line on the cruise. You said, I want to get this right. I wrote it down. You look at the menu and you went, um, what do people order here?

What do people order? Which appetises the people order? I feel like that's an odd question. And Elvis heard you also, and we were left on our asses off. You're like, what do people order? The food? Scary? They order the food? What do people order? Said? What's the most popular thing doesn't mean it's good. I want your signature dish. I want anytime I go somewhere, I want to know. I want to order what you're known for. You didn't say, because honestly, it's what you do best, because it's what

made you famous. Nine out of ten times, when you walk into a restaurant, wherever you are, there's something that made that as a there's something that's a standout that made it what it is, right. But that's different. On a cruise, they have a set menu that and everything there is made by top chefs. It's not a it's not an Italian restaurant. They make everything. That's why I asked, what do people who order like give me the popular dish?

What was that restaurant went to Saturday night? Because that was excellent restaurant. It was called Okay, So something happened there. I thought in Miami, Miami, something happened there. I thought it was hilarious. So we were out with a young lady named Carolina, not the one that used to be on our morning show, one that runs the board. Uh she helps, right, she runs all the controls while we're on the air. She's great. I never hung out with

her before. She's great. Love her. So she's from Florida, hardcore, grew up there from Miami whatever. So you know they take their college football very seriously down there. So she says to the table, and I guess she thought maybe you cared about sports or for college football. And she says, can you believe f I beat you M? And so Scary looks there goes yeah, wow, right. Now, I know Scary probably doesn't know what f I U or U M stand for, nor does he know the significance of

one beating the other. So I said, okay. So my educated guest at first was, well it sounds like an upset, because obviously that's why she came out with that state, right, So he said, so, I very cleverly jumped in and said, I know what an upset that one? Like, yeah, right, upset? What's upset? Right? And she and she agreed with me. She goes yeah, and then it wasn't upset right. I said, I bet they're unseated. Okay, So I called you out in the carpet and I said, I said scary, I said, Kelly,

and I want to apologize. Scaries are the first thing about college football. He doesn't know those teams are. And he goes, yeah, do you am that's University of Maryland. I know who they are? Or he said, Michigan one of them. I think it's Maryland. It's not Maryland's University of Miami. And you know, I said, what's f I you when you're like at a Larida Institute of something Florida. I by you. Well, the f i U was an

unseated team that upset. Okay, So you say that. So you said, I know it's an upset and I said, because one of them is unseated, and c goes, what are you talking about? He goes. You know, one of them seated, one is not seated, So seated only about a college basketball term, that's okay, you seed, and well it's it's called ranks. It's more ranked. It's an unranked team. In college football, we seed in a tournament, but you're ranked for the year usually alright, like tennis players are

number one seed. That's for the year. They're seated. It was an upset, university. It was only an upset because she said it was an upset. But I'm I'm a clever one. I'm just adding to the conversation. You are a clever one. So I got that out of the way. Oh uh. And you know how we joke about you don't pay attention, you don't listen. No, I don't. Okay. So we're happy they're at the studios. And by the way, we've been there a hundred times. We broadcast from there.

So coming at the whole building used to be uh supermarket, this massive building that they gutted, and they there's a lower level and the upper level is a ring. It goes around in a square, uh like a raised level. So when you're in the bottom on the first floor, you can look up and you can see that all the doors and every other top floor a giant square. So Scary says the froggy, Hey, Frog, you remind me where the bathroom is. So he says to Scary, you

make a left out the studio door. You make a right, and it's on your left. He goes, ah, yeah, make a right, and then on the left. Here's no he goes, Scary, go out and make a left, make a right, and it's on your left. He goes, got it. So you walk out the first door. There's two doors. And after you got the first door, I said to Froggy, here near a fucking word, you said, He goes, yeah, typical, Scary. You go watch and make a right. You walked out

the door. You made it right. Okay, So you had to go around this massive football field of a of a building to go all the way around all When did you realize that what you fog on? I eventually got there, didn't I? Yes? It was just the place is a square. It would be the equivalent of you being in New York and wanting to fly to California and going east to Europe, to Asia to Russia. Ventially, just get stuff that bothers your day. It's just the

things that these are the things that really grind your gears. Um, I think the slices who have heard a hundred and six episodes of this No, yes, the answer is yes because you really really do need to chill with that. Who cares? It's the fact you don't listen because I don't I don't care to listen. That's the that's the point. You're like, this is what you here like, you're under the peanuts sty Where's why did you ask where the bathroom was? If you're going to go your own way anyway?

I mean it was fifty make it left, make it right? He say, where's the bathroom? And why don't you remember where the bathroom is? You've been there a hundred times. You gotta go with take a break? Why do you have that look before you hit the commercial button, like a minute and a half ago, this look like because because it's it's it's now Monday, which is really a Wednesday, because it's three days before Thanksgiving. It's a holiday week

when the only slubs in here everybody. Oh, by the way, thank you whoever whoever created the uh the flex schedule. There's a flex schedule and effect for our sales team, or what they call it a flex where you get to make your own schedule. You could come into work. Oh, you can work from home. So now people on the sales floor, you think it's barren and desolate, as as it was certain days of the week. On a Friday,

forget about this week. No one's there because people have the option of working home from where from home, and that is permanent. How great would that be? Imagine doing the radio show or a podcast from our houses. We don't have to come in. Yeah, do you feel about to do that? Elvis is in Santa Fe doing this show from his house. Imagine how great would that be? Though I don't know. I like the camaraderie of coming in. I've always wanted to do this podcast from home. I

do my other podcast from home. It's so great. Yeah, I do love it. I'm on one end my friends share who does the podcast speaking volumes with me? Yes, I haven't been on in a while. On give a listen she does it from her The slices would listen. If I was on, we we faced time each other. It would be great. Where is this going? I'm just I'm just saying it's it's a lonely It's a lonely week. Because I looked at went downstairs to the sales Florida was gonna make close deals with I don't need to

close any more deals. Okay, I got so much to talk about. Let me can I throw a couple of quickies in do what you want? And a lot of people. I got screenshots and stuff I wanted to talk about. I feel like we ranted a lot. We talk a lot. I wanna I wanna say. I want the jokes. I need some jokes. You have the too Soon Police jingle? I need that too Soon Police. Of course, this was a national story, but it was local um and it was the guy at the bagel Boss in Long Island,

New York. He very short guy who went in and he was yelling at the women behind the counter because they would make they would give him funny looks because he's short, and he's starting to fight people. Some guy knocked here, he's a borderline misogynist. He's he's he's yeah, he's a little Google Goggle bus. So then somebody the guy, now, he's what are you gonna do about it? And the guy knocked him down, and and and and and threw him to the ground and and and basically shut him up.

He got what he was coming to him, and then he picked another fight somewhere, and then he was gonna fight Lenny Dike Shrowho used to play for the Mets in the eighties. He puts himself in the media. He's trying to be famous, but he's known for being a hothead and not very nice guy. And he lives in his fucking car in the parking lot across the street from Baby Boss in Long Island, so he very unfortunately

he had a stroke. Okay, he did, and they said it wasn't good, but he was going to recover so being and he's not the nicest guy in the world. I wrote a joke. Now, again, when you're a comedian, your mind works so differently. What you think is too soon is not. We've talked about this. You're too soon level is different. So I wrote a joke and I said, uh, well, it looks like he's also short of breath, right, he's

short short of breath or whatever something like that. Almost all of our listeners were like, ha ha, liked it, retweeted it, except there was that one snowflake. I got two snow flakes too, Like, that's not fucking funny, you clown. You know this guy had a stroke and I go, it's offensive. And whenever I go offensive, You're like, yeah, it's too soon. Please ke. So he's like covering the dream Police by um a cheap trick. Pull up the dream Police, Pull up the dream Police, Pull up. I

Does that guy follow me on Twitter? What else? Is too soon? These are punchlines never written for the show but never quite used and throwing them in the garbage. We are saved now. Some of these are from like four weeks ago. It's fun. They have

So after he said that, because I said, Elvis, having I wrote the jingle, I said have him sing this, which was our tampons are on your inside, And he said, we can't do that's offensive. Um, there's a serial at Scottie b Broad and Scotty the host of Serial Killers podcast. There's a serial called colon Cereal. Right, it's so much fiber it cleans you out. So my

My minot's already lit as a Jewish joke. Nobody got it. Um oh. We were talking about how

Disney did we do this on the air. They've done a many but I like him enough, I'm gonna read anyway. Disney has a warning now in front of their movies on Disney. Plus, Hey, these movies are filmed a long time ago. Some of the content was okay at the time, but maybe considered offensive now, Like, yeah, they're changing some of the names. The Siamese Twins song, isn't that my film? Right? So? I think we may have read these on the air, but I like him so much. We read him here.

I wrote, the Lion King is now the Lion king or queen whoever they identify. We're not sure. Yeah we did these on the air, right, Beauty and the less than traditional looking Man because you don't want to call my beast and Snowflake white and the seven Little People you can't call him dwarves. Um and then uh oh um, you know what addictick is. Isn't that a bird? No, addictic is like a it looks like a little it looks like a deer, and uh some other kind of animals.

They're only even like Australia, right, and so so then Daniel goes, what do you call a small dicktic? And I said, Nate, I said, I made that joke. That's how long ago. That was too soon? Yeah, too soon? Yeah, and it's and I understand it's not get it. And then Elvis said, I don't like man buns he's talking about. I don't like man buns. I said, no, but you do like man buns. Say like man buns. He likes man ones. That sounds like it's welcome. You've got the

text message we got? He said, I love that phone tap. I'm literally laughing. Which phone tap doesn't matter. He's literally laughing. It's called laughing. You can always email us at the Brooklyn Boys podcast at gmail dot com. I just don't you should know him A slice Feel life. Currently re listening to the podcast from zero a second time, Love It, love you, and yes, I have an all email account and also so fuck you. I was watching a show called Atypical on Netflix about a boy with some type

of autism or living with autism. Turns out that Michael Rabbitport is one of the main characters. I desperately wanted him to go off and say fuck you, you fuck but I haven't heard it yet. He doesn't say it's it's you, fuck you, you fuck you. The Michael ra Report episode is my favorite episode from the Brooklyn Boys. Just do It, I would share, eagerly waiting the next show. Thank You f r D see at a o L dot com carried Jordy says hey free ship for me.

I jokingly told my friends I was gonna send Red Bull a thank you card for getting me through college. For a year and a half, I worked the third shift bar, attended and kept up at three point oh g p a while taking a full semester of classes. Recently graduated from Northern Illinois University, and remember to send my thank you to Red Bull. After an exchange of email, Red Bullocks asked for my address. About a week later, I received a handwritten note from Red Bull headquarters and

two free cans of original Red Bull. It was unexpected yet so appreciated. Just thought I would share with you guys. Thank you guys. So she got free ship just for complimenting Red Bull. Isn't that nice? So she wasn't even asking for free dessert, but she got it nice? Okay. Finally Ken's stomach, it says Joey P wanted to thank you guys for a great podcast. Brodie has me laughing pretty hard most days. Scary is truly a city boy. I think this is why the two of you work

so well together. Brodie made it a point to bring you. Brodie makes it a point to bring you back to reality where most of us are. I have to admit the Jersey kid forgot his name. Don't tweet me. Maybe impossible for me to listen to the fifteen minute morning show podcast? Which is that other podcast we do? Um. I'm sure he's a great guy, he's just not great at leading us, leading a talk show or a podcast. The two of you guys make it work together perfectly though.

Trying to listen in order, but my heart makes it impossible. On Android, Yeah, we're working on that. Keeping the last coming, Making you guys make my long nights on the road fly by ps. Scary upstate is not everything north of the city, Western, central, eastern or capital region of Northern New York. Brodie, we have Shabagel's up here by the ways, Thank you Bagels, Joey p Oh speaking of s Bagels.

So we were why one hundred in Miami right at the WAGO station, and after our show, they had a meeting. So the meeting that catered in bagels and orange juice. And I went over and I looked and Scary was like ten ft behind me. I was trying to went, don't bother bagels? What would do? Asks Elizabeth A Uh, Brody, what would you do? I ordered uh and got installed a new garage door. Cost me two grand installed the door, but they didn't have the correct hinges. Of course, I

they fuck you on the hinges every time. They waiting on them to get the parts and finished my door for about a month. Haven't charged me for the door yet until it's complete. But we're still upset. We've been waiting this long. I want my free dessert. Feedback is appreciated, Thank you, Liz. I'm saying if it was a big inconvenience to you, like it was no big deal, but if the door doesn't open and you're manually lifting. It

depends on how much you're you're being put out. I would think four to five hundred dollars off a four office fair alright because of two grand. Yeah, so I would say four hundred dollars back for your trouble, because you paid for what you paid for when it was supposed to be put in if they funked up on the hinges. And by the way, you know, my mother always used to say, David, they always fun the hinges. Yeah, always, they always do. Kristen Mara Klein, thank you for checking in.

She's a new listener Slice for Life. Also another one, Jamie Fazzina. Jamie Fazzina, she's a media specialist. I wanted to know how much I love she likes dating and she likes walks in the park. Well, she's up to episode twenty two right now. Oh man, But I have to tell you episode twenty one, when you guys talked about anchovies on the Greek salad and cracked me the hell up? Uh, And then the Ben's in her song

on episode twenty two was fantastic, so funny. I can relate to everything you guys say I grew up on six and eleventh Avenue by Ridge, right right there, and that's started by Rich. Yeah. Moved to Staten Island, now live in Jersey. I'm exactly Scary's age, which is forty five years Is that true? Found out everything you guys is so relatable, especially talking about Christmas, Eve and sushi. I love it because my family doesn't do the whole fish thing anymore. Kind of said, if you think about it.

I I do listen to the newest podcasts in between catching up on the old ones. Is that okay? Is that okay to catch up in between? I don't know, man, I got some I got something. When you're done, all right, ye take it up, take it away? Uh d M from Thomas va Levin. Hey man, just listen to the fifteen minute Morning Show and that turtleneck and the bone a Lisa joke absolutely killed me. I'll explain those in

a minute. Have you thought about doing stand up? I know you kill it at improv, but if you wrote a solid thirty Netflix would easily give you a special. One of my favorite comedians well, as I explained it, Thomas doing what we do here and being quick witted. Uh and good at improv really doesn't translate to stand up. As I told him, doing stand up involves writing material, rehearsing it, beating it to death, and in basic repeating the same thing over and over again, night after night.

Like you're in a play, right you have to you have to tell stories and have punch lines and anecdotes and then callbacks. And it's an art form which I greatly admire and respect, and you have to perform at night and tour and play dives and club listen. It's difficult, but it's not like, oh, he's funny, she do stand up? Stand up is not being funny. You have to be funny, but also not how to craft everything is structure a joke.

There's a lot more to go into it. Not that I couldn't do it eventually, but it's a lot of work. I don't have the time, but I appreciate the compliment. I'm not sure Netflix would give me a special but I love that. Jamie Fezzina did you read Jamie? Yeah? Uh oh, she's the new listener. She's listening to twenty. She likes all the stuff that we've been doing well.

She wrote slightly different words when she tweeted me. She said, Hi, I'm a new listen to the Book of Boys podcast and just want to say how much I love you both. I listened to The Big Show forever, but just now became a listen to the podcast. I can relate to just about everything. She rewrote. She re wrote, re wrote it. Yeah, that's my boarding past. You don't need to hear me read that. Um s o s Underscore forty eight commenting on the picture of the fruit that Norwegian Cruise Line

Jordans s j s K zero eight four tweeted do you see the irony and it looks like it's a pop up ad for Tom's Pizza Palm's Pizza and it says after your workout, check us out at Tom's Pizza and Restaurant for a Greek chicken salad.

We are approaching getting clients that might be able to help a sponsor T shirts and we might be able to sell that monopoly game. We're trying to figure this out before the early next year. I did want to read Rudy Marino, Rudy, Rudy, Rudy, Rudy,

Ruddy drives a truck. Uh, he wrote, UH, love you both. Twenty days without a day off, and You're the only thing I listened to in the truck, my Brooklyn boys getting me through the day. Got home today, put the news on mute, and continue to listen to episode sixty four even though I've heard it three times. That's dedication. And then he said, I I don't know. I said, why do you why do you like sixty four? What's the special about sixty four? He said, I don't know.

They're all great. I love the banter, the topics. You and Scary make a great team. One other thing, thanks for nixing the birthdays. I don't fucking care if it's your birthday, you and a million other people have the same birthday. There you go. So I wanted to just read Rudy's um. Well, well, the birthday thing was intended to be a shout out for people that like, like, like hardcore slices, But we do that. We read their emails and their tweets, and I wish we could do

something for Slice for life's birthdays. We gotta have everybody, but we gotta have something. We gotta have gotta have so I don't have to mention it. We don't have to mention it on the podcast. When we first started, we were just kind of finding our way. But we should do something. Yeah, he's what we'll do. We'll do an episode next week because I feel bad we didn't get a chance to send you in visible T shirt.

Visible T shirts. You know what, the guy with the four kids you just read an email, Send him in a visible T shirt. Will ruin it. I want to get out of here on a high note. Uh, just a quick little rant because I know you'll agree with me. I don't know if this ever happened to you. All Right, this is it, and then we're gonna go, and I'm gonna I had to take all right. I had to take it uber to the airport from my hotel. It's about a half hour ride to Miami International Airport. So

you gotta take ninety five. You get a ninety five. It's the main road. There's always traffic, but there wasn't traffic on Sunday when I was going. The woman didn't speak any English. Very little English. Not a problem. She speaks Spanish. She said to me. Uh, And I said, Umi, poco. Oh, she's got very excited, like m bom poco a little yeah, No, I said, MOI poco very little, very little. Right, listen, I speak a little Spanish. Poco means a little bit,

but okay, but I said very little. That's correct, MOOI poco very little. Moss is more boys, hold on, moi poco is not is not a thing? No, no, it's un poco. She didn't correct me. Whatever, hold on with your story. I'm translating. Moi poco means very little, fuck you. I took Spanish in five years and worked in restaurants with MOI poco very little? Are you speakinglish? Very little? Moi poco? Thank you? Suck it? Then what's un poco? A little? Won is? Ah? Okay, all right, you don't

speak Spanish. Put more in front of everything. Then moi mui. That means very moist, so very fun, very sun, very sunny, very hot, soul is the sun. Okay. So we're riding and there's no conversation because she doesn't speak right, and so, uh it's being English and I don't speak Spanish enough and uh. She gets off the parkway there's little bit of traffic and starts taking the streets and she's got the the Google maps. I guess she's using on her phone.

That's the worst. It's clipped to the air conditioning event like the one that's INAPT, the INAPT thing. Maybe maybe that's I don't know what. It didn't look like Google, but no, it wasn't ways, it wasn't Google. It was whatever nav system. So all of the I'm not following along with the with what she's doing and and all of a sudden, like this is a neighborhood is getting kind of bad. It's looking a little CD not ranked CD. And uh she she says to me, uh, um, uh,

you have phone? See and she says, uh, that means I have a phone. Scary, And so I said yes, she was could uh could you could you google map? You google map? I see see your tank and she was, uh, my name and my system. No, good, right, I'm gonna do in the accent because that's what And I'm trying to convey that she didn't write, okay, I said, what do you mean? Don't ever come down on me for doing an accent again? Thank you? Continue. That's exactly how

she sounded. I'm trying to explain, so so she want so she just my navigation is basically said, my navigation is not working. It was all over the plate. It was going sideways crooked. Because can you can you put on your nap system? Basically what she says, you can put Google maps? I go what she wanted you to do? Some work? She says, I I'm I didn't getting lost lost? Why did you get off the park way? If you're lost, you're an Uber driver. You have one job. Get me

to the airport. I didn't say, get me to like Mike's bagel shop. I asked, gave me to the international airport. You're cast. You go to the airport automatically, but you got off and you start making turns by flat fixed shops and skanky looking liquor stores out of where we were right. Okay, So I'm like this, why I'm paying for this? So I put my phone on. By the way, I got a message on my phone an hour earlier. Eisen says, you've used data for the month, which I

know is my kids. But I'm like, fuck now, I gotta turn my data on and my location services so I can use Google Maps. So I'm in the back with Horror and she goes, Okay, where do I go? So I go, dus kay a in that direction, and I go she's making a left. I'm speaking in her language. She's still making wrong turns. She had a back out of the street because she made in this Canada instead of a direction. Okay, so not even in Spanish. She's going the wrong way. So I see she's going um

south and we had to go north. So I make her turn around, and then I tell her to turn. I say, turn on on on on first Avenue. Right. She turns on second Avenue and then can't make the turn to get on the parkway. So now I have to I'm recalculating, and I go, I go. So I get her back on the parkway finally, and and she goes. Uh. I said, now you're on now all the side and say Miami International Lamport. Right, the road is splitting to the left a giant sign. Even if you didn't speak English,

it says Miami, which in Spanish is still Miami. Right with a giant white plane on the side. Right, Miami aeroplane right, okay, on the left, um and on the right sign where the road splits, it says a bunch of words, a bunch of towns and cities. Guess what. None of them said airport, and none of them had a plane on them. I assume as an uber driver, right, okay, uh, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say. I don't even have to pronounce her name. I assumed the lady knows

airport signs. Right with the airplane picture, you know how you say you know you know what an airplane picture is? In Spanish? An airplane picture. So at the last minute, she's going at the middle, at the middle, at the divider, and she's going which way? So I look up, I go it's Gerada. Okay, that go? It was the crazy Yeah, I know, but Brodie, there's a language barrier there. There's a like Miami Airport logo. I don't know what do you want to say? I know I she probably doesn't part. No. Look,

she was a sweet woman. I gave it five stars and gave her a nice tip. My point is, why why am I using my data? I'm paying you for the er? Do I get a discount? Did I get off? I'm giving a direct It's like the guy who wanted me to pack my own food. You didn't want to pack your own food. I didn't. Would you want to go into ouper? And I have to give the directions and use your data? And I don't have a limited data before you like it's a long story, A long story.
