#180: You're Not Famous... GET OUT!

The Brooklyn Boys. It's scary and Brodie and Brodie and scary. And I'm here with a cannoli. I got a cannoli broil from ordered off a Slice. We'll hear more about that a little later, but I figured, oh, look at this pizzaia that I'm ordering from this week. They also sell dessert and they had tear missiou tartufo, which would have melted on the way here, and CONNOI so I

have two big cannolis. But I'm one man. Have you tried to eat your own connoli way back in the day in a previous episode, If you want to know, then you tried to ask your own c I y K, y K. If you know you know? Anyway, If you don't, you're not listening in order. Shame on you. Hey, Speaking of if you know, you know, you know the song we end, we end the show with the uh the Boys from Brooklyn, which is a parody, of course, of No Sleep Till Brooklyn by the Beastie Balls. Of course,

no secret, we're big fans of the Beastie Boys. You more show than me. You're a huge Well. Twenty years ago the Mets, New York Mets, our team brought a new minor league franchise into existence in Coney Island, Brooklyn, in a stadium right off the boardwalk, right by the ocean. Uh. And we hadn't had Brooklyn baseball forty four years since the Brooklyn Dodgers moved out to California the New York Giants moved out to captain San Francisco. Right. It was a big deal, and so I was very excited. Scary

was very excited. Our old friend Baldfrey Grani very excited, And so I thought it would be good to write a song, uh Baseball in Brooklyn to No Sleep Till brook which I think that we played baseball in Brooklyn on this podcast, I think we did. So I got contacted by our friend Gary, who's the big vp UH marketing and promotions and big shot over at the Brooklyn Cyclones. He says, hey, guys, we got anniversary coming up June must yeah, and we'd like you guys to film a video.

Maybe we'll thank you something. And I said, sure, I'll film something. He says, yeah, I mentioned the song and all the things you've done A nice great I'll tell Scary, no problem. By the way, Scary, did you do your video? Um? No, okay, very good. All right. So I go out and the minute I go outside have to I stitting for like five days. It starts to drizzle. It's drizzling, but I said, you know what the hell ward it, I'm gonna do it. So I did like four takes. I kept like sucking up. Halfway.

The rain was getting in my eyes. The rain was like knocking the paper off my phone that was blowing. The wind was blowing the notes. I couldn't read them. So I see, you know what, I'm gonna wait like fifteen minutes till it because it was like a light rain. I go back in the house I wait fifteen minutes, I retaped the paper. I see that it stops raining. I go out, and I want you to hear this what I'm taping. See if you can, if you can hear this now, and you'll hear in the background after

it stopped raining again. I waited five days. Here we go, Here we go, hold up many years since I wrote, and I gotta get what the hell was that? Here one more time. Listen in the background, and got sounds like a lawnmower, lawn more. My neighbor's my neighbor's lawnmowing company comes by just as I'm ready to record, and and they wanted them mowing the lawn. So I film it. I filmed the damn thing like uh seven, seven or eight times, and I finally like, I'm feeling good about it.

I feel like I have a rhythm. I'm gonna nail it. So here's here's like at this point, it's like take twenty one. So at this point that what I did, what I haven't nailing it on the seventh raight? Well, okay, so I realized on the last one eight I said I was, I was, I was during in the morning show. I didn't I slurred the Duran part, so I'm like, I gotta do the whole thing again. So I wait, and they stopped. They stopped mowing the lawn. Okay, stopped

mowing the lawn. The guy takes out a chainsaw and starts trimming branches off a tree, and so I think this is what happened. This is this is what the chainsaw. Here we go since I wrote and got again, it's almost like they have binoculars and they were like fucking with you, and like, you know what, now is the time? Here I start the law mowers up again. He's about to record. Yeah, yeah, I couldn't. So that's what I

get from procrastinating. I could have between the rain and the shade, but you didn't have that problem, and didn't have that problem because I'm the ultimate procrastinator because I didn't do a video. But now I feel bad that I didn't do one. So yeah, we've got a lot of grammar police to get to. We need your opinion on something, if this is offensive or not. Just tell me if it's offensive or not. Okay, Um, there's a website, you know, like on Facebook page for our old neighborhood,

benson Hurst riddles. Yeah, terrible, it's terrible. Anyway. You know who the son of Sam was, right, And if you don't know, the Son of Day, he was a mass murder in the seventies. If you're old enough to remember it, you remembered. If not, it was the late seventies. It was a summer of very. It was the hottest, one of the hottest summers on record in New York City. The Bronx was burning, and it was it was trash everywhere, right, and this go was was not dead blackouts anyway, it

was summer, but some sun. A Sam killer. He said that his dog Sam was telling him to kill people. Anyway. He killed I don't know how many people, but he wounded a lot of people. And there was one couple down by the by the water by the Verizonto Bridge. They were making out in a car. Allegedly right son of Sam walked up to the car, shot the girl, killed her, shot the guy and he lost his eye. Okay, guy's name was Valenti. Tragic story, tragic this to live

with that this girl from he was killed. Well, I'm still okay. So this guy, for some reason posts on the page, the Brooklyn page. He wants to know if this guy Valenti is still alive right now? Why you didn't google it, I don't know. But he figured a lot of people knew him because the guy was from our neighborhood. Okay, so the guy writes, hey, is the guy Valenti that got shipped by the son of Sam

still alive instead of shut? So a bunch of people gave him honest answers, and one guy wrote, well, if he got ship, he's probably fine, you know, probably stunk a little bit whatever. Well, you know, are our people in Brooklyn and benson Hurst. They savaged him, savaged him. How could you be so insensitive? How could you make fun of the guy being shot? So then he and by the way, wasn't me. I was so I thought I made the same joke in my head, but I

wasn't gonna write it. And the guy's like, hey, I was making fun of the post, not the guy, so scary. I'm asking you, is it okay to joke on this ship mistake and you're not making fun of the guy being shot in the eye? Or is it insensitive because the guy might see it? He has one eye, so I'm not making a joke what he might see that, but it's not about him. Well, yeah, okay, you said that.

I didn't anyway, is it offensive or is the guy being a snowflake because a lot of people attack the guy and threatened with I think people are being I think anyone who's complaining is being a snowflake. Right. Well, one guy, I've never seen this before. So one guy threatened to beat the guy up right, you know, the usual Brooklyn threats one guy. I'm so excited. I'm not a part of this page. Yeah, so I didn't. I didn't post, I didn't comment. One guy, I've never heard

this before. He says, I'm gonna call my uncle Charlie. Right, So the guy goes, what is he in the mob? You're gonna threaten me like some bullshit? Your uncles in the mob? He says, Nope, my uncle Charlie works for the I R S. He just gave him your name and he's gonna order your ass be prepared to pay taxes and get your ass ordered. Who does that? Who threatens somebody with an uncle working for the I R S? And what uncle at the I R S is gonna

order some rando from Facebook? Because you didn't like his joke. Have you ever heard that? To have you do? Is there anyone in your life that does something for a living? And by the way, you guys can tweet us, I'm curious and we'll read him next week. Do you have someone in your life that has a job that you could hold against and threatened somebody with? Right, Like if you if your actors right, and you're like, if your your uncle's a big agent, You're like, you'll never work

in this town again. Right, But do you have like a mechanic who like, oh, he's gonna fucking car off, or like, do you know anybody in your life that that could ruin somebody? My uncle was an artist, so he will draw you. He will do it. He will do a bad, bad caricature of you with a tennis racket in a big head. Yeah. Why does why do all those caricatures make you with a tennis rack? I don't know. Like when you go to a button, miss,

We've seen the commercial that the guy commercial. They do that where the guy stands out and he's got a giant sandwich in his hand. Yeah, they over the woman's like, I'm gonna make it look just like you. I don't know why people do that? All right, So what do you got? Um, well, I'm I'm kind of I'm a I'm a little thrown because my phone keeps ringing again. There it is again, this is you. This is the third time. No, no, this happened right before the I'm

not answering it. It's my front desk. This happened right before the cast started. Um, my phone starts ringing incessantly. And it was my front yeah, like the front desk of my of my apartment building. So I said, what do you need? They're like, you have food down here, and I'm like, no, I said, I ordered food already. I came about an hour ago. It was slice, and I you know, I was telling you about my cannoli that I just you know, I had my cannoli here anyway.

So I'm like, hold on a second. So I walked downstairs and and I actually get in the elevator and then I'm not walking down flights of stairs high rise and them at the top, so and they're like, this is your apartment number, and Mike, yeah, but what is this bon chon chicken? I didn't order bonchon chicken. Chicken is so good. It's Korean twice fried chicken, you know. But don't get me wrong. I love bon chicken, but bond it. They chon it. It's so good they rub

it down. Oh no, I said, listen, guys, this is not my food. And I looking at it. I'm sure enough. I'm looking at the receipt and it was my apartment number, but a different building. Now this is the second time this has happened this week. On Sunday morning, I woke up at like nine in the morning, I opened up my front door and it was a giant bag of Indian food sitting outside my doorstep. So I'm like, huh. I look around, I look left, I look right. I

take it inside. And apparently I've been sitting there all night because the receipt said the order was placed at PM at the night before, and I guess it must have been delivered at like twelve one o'clock in the morning. I had already been in my apartment sleep But I'm reading this stuff. I even I talked about this on the air briefly. I called Gandhi from our show and I'm like, dude, I'm like this stuff, the Southern Indian street food. Tell me what is tica, What is paneer?

What is what is u? Dosas? Like? All this stuff? That was? You called Gandhi to tell you what that what? You didn't go y because I was about to throw the whole bag away, But and uh, what else did you have to tak whatever it was? It was? It was it was it was some kind of a cheese. Anyway, the point is, I'm like, you know what, if I love the food, I'm gonna put it in my refrigerator and I'll eat it later. And if I hate it, so she described it all to me, and it sounded delicious.

So I put it in my refrigerator and I ate it later that night. But once again, it was delivered to my apartment. Somebody got past the doorman, came up here and then uh and left it in front of my door at like midnight or one o'clock in the morning or something. So so that was that happened last week. And then it just happened before the podcast with the bon chon Chicken. I went down to stay us to

clear up the problem. And now they're they're ringing my phone again and I'm not answering it this time because it's like a joke as somebody sending food to my apartment and like, you know, I mean it's an expensive joke if you ask me, I mean it's Indian food that's pricey every time. So this time it was it was. It was so somebody with your address or similar address is not getting their food, right. So I got free free dessert. I got free free meal. So you took

the bonch on, right, No? I did not this time. Now I gave it back. I said, call up, call up the right thing, the right thing. Well, you know, if I'll tell you what though, they're not gonna they can't bring you can't bring it, they can't bring it back, right we would you open it? No? No, no, it was downstairs in the front desk and I looked at it and I'm like, no, I don't want it. I'm good And uh so I gave it to my dorman. I'm sure he's gonna eat it. Oh you should have

you gave him the bonch on. He got the bonch on. I would have come over and done a broadcast at your house. Oh oh, is that what it's gonna take first to get back together again? Well, I was at the I was at the radio station today. You were this afternoon. Yeah, I'll tell you that later. Why it was in Manhattan, it's quite the story. We'll get to that late a second. What were you doing up at the radio station again? It was in Manhattan for something?

And why weren't you in Manhattan? Why weren't you in Manhattan to do our podcast in person? Because the I had I'll tell you what it was, but i'll tell the story later. I had a traffic court appointment today because back in March of last year, I was accused of going through a stop sign. So it kept getting delayed because of COVID. So today I had to go to court in Manhattan. Okay, very nice. And then afterwards I went up to the radio station to say hi

to all the people in the afternoon. I haven't seen in a while. I never met you, never met. Yeah, Crystal is great, She is fantastic. She is also great. Yeah, So anyway, I was there today. I was gonna leave you a note, but then I thought, you get all pissy that I was there, and I you know, I didn't go AnyWho there. You know, I you know this, this podcasting from home thing has to come to an end really soon. It has to Um, I'm not lucking doing it at night, and UM, I'm sick of the

echo in the delay. And I love to have you in front of me so we can look at each other. You look at you, so I could stare you right in the eye. Brodie, speaking of echo. Our friend Mr Well formerly Mr movie Phone, then the Movie Man, his real name is Russ. I called him this week and he said, oh, how's your how's your podcast doing? What's scary? I said you should listen to it? So he did. I had him listen to three episodes. He's now a big fan. If you don't know movie Phone, and welcome

to movie Phone. That guy it's the old seven seven seven film guy. Movie dot com sold at a O L got it back sold again right now. He's the movie Man does six second reviews. He did for a while, I don't always doing now. So he listens to the brook and boy he does now big fan. But he said he said he didn't recognize your voice at first. He said you sound different. You sound you have a lot of uh reverb, and you didn't sound I said, well, scary.

He's got a three point nine million dollar set of equipment. Uh it maybe makes his voice sound better, but maybe not like in the studio on the street scary Jones. He said, I sounded perfectly perfectly. Well, so my my hundred dollar equipment, your hundred dollar microphones, like like just fine, and and that's great. I have all kinds of processing and things online, but the stuff that I can't undo.

So all right, So what we can need to do is go back to the studio so we both are sound even and because we're both on the same type of microphone, the same studio. Would imagine by the I would say by August first, I would imagine most of us will be back if I had to guess by August. If I had to guess, yeah, I like that. I like that because nice going on. We're going on on a on a vacation for goals. Yeah, well, you know, we will be off for a couple of weeks, and

I'm depending on when you hit this podcast. It's every year. We go on the vacation at the same time every year, and we always take you and we always take two weeks. Okay, don't June first, we get July. Right, there's nothing changes here right now. I would radio you take vacation when your listeners usually take vacation. Now, I know you're thinking, I'm not a vacation. I understand. And people listen to podcasting differently. They binge episodes like crazy. So we'll let

us say this. After you listen to this episode and its entirety, wouldn't it be great to go back and listen to episodes that you might have missed from the bottom now you here? Yeah, we would be awesome if you did, because that's song. Ready no, no, but guess what when we get back into the studio, I'll have it all my fingertips. Yeah, yeah as well I when I run the board on occasion. Agreed. I would love that.

I would love nothing more. So speaking of vacation, UM, I am going to remember our friend to bald Freak Rannie, another Brooklyn boy. Yeah, he's sang the Brooklyn Boys the Brooklyn Cyclones song with us. We just talked about. He did he didn't he listened to the podcast. Uh. Ronnie and I we are going to Tampa and St. Tampa, St. Pete. So we're going to hang out in Saint Petersburg. We're gonna visit that area. Appear apparently the west coast of Florida is a thing. You know a lot of times

I think for millions of people. Well, no, I know, but you know, I said again another thing I mentioned on the people took the ring to this podcast would know you wouldn't be going there unless it was a thing. Hashtag boogie bastard. It's not a well, it is a thing because it's a thing. The thing is, we don't we don't go as people from this area in the Northeast.

We'd usually go to the east coast to Florida, and they say that is heavily populated, and the water is rougher because it's a it's in an ocean right at the Atlantic Ocean, whereas you get the Gulf of Mexico on the west coast and the water is calm. You could walk out for a hundred feet and it's still up to your waist and it's beautiful, and the sharks don't have to travel as far that way. So he has to keep the number one beach in the United States,

and St. Pete is not far behind that. So so Ronnie and I were gonna are gonna explore the west coast of Florida, and yes, and then you're gonna be jealous of me, Prodie, What are you doing? After that? We're flying to Atlanta and we're gonna catch the Mets play the Braves in their new stadium in Atlanta. How great is that You're going for steak dinner after that, you prick? I'm sure we will. You know what, now that you mentioned it, I'm gonna buy Ronnie a steak dinner.

I hate you so much sometimes, but that's gonna be fun. And then of course I'll be down in Asbury in New Jersey Shore. I want to know what you're And by the way, there's still another week after that that we're off, so I have to plan that. What are you I'm so glad you went first, Scary. What are you doing? Brodie? Oh well, let's see. The first week, I'm gonna relax and prepare myself for second week Eve.

And then the second week, the second week, I will prepare myself for going I call it going back to work Eve. So I will be relaxing around the house. No, not at all. I am going to swim and hot tub it and the ice cream and I know what, I know what I'm gonna do, Scary, I'm gonna I'm gonna do you one better. Normally the way the way my pool is my in ground pool. One side of the pool is about two ft wide as far as the concrete like the deck around it, right, a concrete

deck with a fencing around it. Right. The other side is about ten ft wide, So that's where your lounge chairs are at. That's where my storage units are for the floats and stuff. That's what my table with the umbrella is the wider the wider side of the of the pool deck, right. I think in honor of you going to Tampa, I'm gonna jump in from the short side for a change, I'm gonna go to the left side and jump in from the left side of my pool.

Because you know, people always go to the east coast to the pool, so you're gonna go to the west coast to the plan. I'm gonna go to the west coast, just which is right on uh CS the lawn right there, right as opposed to uh casa was it Uta del deck on the right, I'll be at uh CS the grass right there. CS the lawn. Depends on where you're from, somebody in your pool, yeah right. I also may go to the you know, like you're on a cruise ship,

go to like the leado deck to party deck. I'll be going to the deck deck and getting into my hot tub, and in honor of you. Instead of getting in on the front side, which faces the doors to my my my house, I'm gonna get on the on the side side, which faces my pool. Stupid question, Yes you can't come. No, I watched a stupid question. Why don't you We have a lot of days off in

a row. It's it's actually two weeks wrapped around three weekends plus a day because we're gonna take off on Frintay, right, Yeah, I know what you're gonna say, I should go somewhere. Why don't you go somewhere? Well, I'm thinking about it. But here's here's the truth. My my daughter, who was living in Chicago for the past year, working in Chicago, is home between jaunts, and so she's gonna be jaunting to Europe, uh to go for a master's degree. And

I would like to see as much as possible. So I don't I don't think I'm gonna go away with that is you are being that is being a great father right there. Well, she's very special to me. And I want to spend as much time as possible. So that is Oh my god, you've got some brownie points. I'm actually I almost shed a tear there, Malfi motherfucker kids, no kids? Yeah, So can I want to share a story? What can I get? Tell you story about motherfucker. It's

a real quick story. Yeah you can, because after that we have to get our grand prize winner on the phone. Yes, okay, great. So in my joint today, I'm going to tell you about it my court appearance, I took my first lift. I was in Uber. Rather, I took in Uber for the first time in two years from Lower Manhattan to Lower to Lower Manhattan to Extra Low Manhattan. Right, and I'll get to that later. I took a train back. I don't want to. I don't want to. Well, you

know what I'll tell you about the lift. The Uber driver I had to go to um seventeen Battery Place. Now, the battery is the area of Lower lowerman I know exactly what you're gonna say here. It's near Wall Street and seventeen Battery Place is a is a street that goes like along the water. It turns and wraps around the Manhattan so by the way, it's almost impossible to

get to Yeah, it's right, right, right. So we went down the West Side Highway west, the west of Manhattan, the Tampa St. Pete of Manhattan, right, and uh, I see we get onto Battery Battery Place and he's like two or three minutes. He makes a turn and he goes this good. I go, yeah, it's fine. And we're right in front of number. I seen the seventeen on the building, and I go great. I give him a nice tip. You know why, because these guys have been

struggling because of the pandemic. He was really nice. I gave him, Hey, big spender. So I get out of the I get out of care, Hey, have a nice day. I'm extra nice to the guy. By the way, I still have to give him a review. I didn't gi hm a review yet. I just remember. I get out of the car. I look at the big seventeen on the building. Right, seventeen Battery Place. No, no, my friend, seventeen Slate Street. Oh, Battery Place turns into Slate Street again.

That's too. In five minutes, so I had to walk back like four blocks in uncomfortable heat today, and because I was on a court. I wore a decent shirt long pants, so I was not comfortable the tip. No, no, of course not, of course not. The guy still needs the money. He just been a mistake. So I decided to take the subway back. Now there's a subway station right there, which is involves two trains to get back

to where we work. Right. I didn't want to take the two trains down there because I was afraid I might be late. Like, no, let me just take the car. I'll get there the guy. I'll know where I'm going door to door. As it turns out, it wasn't. So rather than spend like twenty bucks, I'm like, I would take the train for two seventy five whatever it is. Uh, So I get that. I go down on the train platform.

There's a woman carving fruit and then wrapping it and putting it on the top of a little shopping cart like a little wagon. Right, she's got a little store set up, and she's got a little Indian music playing mountain right, a whole stall scenario going right. Okay, Dan is a guy on the playfor No. If you've never been to a New York subway, there's always entertainers there's guy's dancing playing the upside down buckets. There's always one guy playing that um like a little windpipe thing. Sure

it's hoo, it's like Indian music, like Native American. Okay, this guy's got long hair, big muscular guy. He's got a guitar and he's got a little blow bucket for money, right and uh it will sign it says I take requests now, you know, a mail a rocker, and I think you know what I'm feeling that New York vibe. I'm feeling like I love my city. I'm back for the first time in a long time. You're back in the New York groove. And thank you, Ace Freely. I'm back.

By the way, what commercial is that? Is it Cores? Yeah, Core's Light. If you're not from New York in New York are you probably would see it. But Cores Light now has this new commercial that New York is back and this servant beer. I guess that's the sign of New York being back? Is this serving Corps Light? I don't see the correlation, but anyway, they're like New York can't be stopped and they're like, I'm back back. Love Ace Freely, Okay, by the way, ace T really didn't

write that song was written by Russ Ballard. That's great. You just keep going, Brodie, just keeping my point. Was My point was, so I go up to the guy who's working to make X your money, right, he's probably not making three thousand dollars as a lawyer. He's in the subway paying for tips, playing for tips, right. So the sign says I play for request. So I said, um, I saiyu you you know any Rush the band Rush I was. I was in the mood and I had

like a bunch of singles in my pocket. The guy looks at he goes, now, I'm sorry, I'm on a break. So he wasn't taking requests. He's on a break. And where have you ever seen a subway musician on a break? I had cash in my pocket. You know what, he probably he probably has a specific threshold that he needs to meet every couple of hours, and he probably made the money he needed to make. And now he took

a break. Nice life. You got there. You're working tax free in the subway and the train was eleven minutes away. So I'm like, I waited a couple of minutes. I'm thinking maybe someone else will give him some money. I felt bad. Now you're saying he'sself, David, did you did you give him any money anyway? No? I did not. I did not know you. And I didn't buy any subway fruit from the woman. I'm not. I can't do that. It's because she's using her bare hands to cut the front.

Something un sanitary about never mind, never mind. I have been known to buy a Turro though, from the lady with the Turro shopping cart. I have, and they're very good. So when we were kids, we used to go to the met game and uh, whoever was outside, they'd have like an old rusty shopping cart. Do you remember those? Yes, And they used to make ices out of them. No, no, no, no, you know the little part where you put the kid

in the front. Right there, they would put a round wire basket with hot coals in it and they would cook the right they cooked the pretzels. You'd buy the pretzels from the guys like three dollars outside. They're using the actual metal wiring of the of the cart as as the wire rack of a barbecue to cook. And so I was a kid, I was like, oh, I gotta have a pretzel. If the Mets one I got. That was my thing. The Mets I got a pretzel. Now I go I go to the games. I see

these people with like rusty shopping carts. It's like cooking on radiator in your car, like or again probably getting some metal in your mouth and whatever. Or I will say this. When I was a kid, we also we had the the ice man. He used to he again he had an old shopping cart, and they used to have the water ices, and he used to put everything in Philadelphia. Just ices just ices as opposed to all ices. It's water right, so ices, I call them water ices

because they differentiate. Because it's a big country we live in a lot of people. Why would you differentiate saying their ices is well, people think it's it's ice cubes. Like what is it? Ice cube? I'm just ice cube lemon ices? Right ices? Yeah, cherry ices like that. Anyway. By the way, if you want to call water ices, you gotta say water ices. Wooter ices. All right, can we listen. We we have a price to give away.

This is this is a very very important people. A lot of people entered a lot of people were bragging about how they had they were gonna win, so like we we didn't pick it. We have this is the top line. We had a website called the Brooklyn Boys Free Pizza dot Com with our friends slice it was it was really cool. So they picked the winner at random. They gave us the phone number. Hello. Hello, Yes, congratulations, Matt, you're our winner of a year worth of pizza. Oh

They put me through the ringer on the morning show. And I know that you, you specifically Brody, had questions. I was screaming at so Okay, so you're in the

studio getting telling you a story. I'm home on the couch, monitoring the show and doing what I do, and I'm screaming at my laptop, screaming at my my my audio system where I'm hearing the show because once again, you have out boogees yourself. I didn't booge I didn't out boogie myself. Okay, I I all I did was all you did. I had already guilty. I had to throw my name out because I was backed into a corner

and they made me angry. You remember the Incredible Hulk where where he said you don't like me when I'm angry, and the shirt rips and he turns green and he turned into the Hulk. Okay, that was me in the moment that I was put into a corner. And and we won't make this very long, but nobody puts Scary in the corner. I went into a bar that normally has no slots available, no reservations. It's a bar slash restaurant. Okay, I'll try. It's called Jitano Garden of Love. I'm just

gonna throw it out there. That's a g I t a n oh. And there's one location in Tulloom, Mexico. And the location is in New York City. Now with this place av so I roll up there. It was six o'clock. It was before. It was before we had to go out to dinner with my friends. It was right, but it was we were pre gaming and there was no line to get in, and my friends and I were going in and my buddy and the guy says, actually, we there's three of you. We have three spots at

the bar. Go sit at the bar. So my friends and I who sat at the bar, which is where we kind of wanted to be anyway. But during the night I looked at the lay of the land and I noticed that there were twelve by the way, this place has like fifty tables, but there were twelve tables in particular lining the bar area, which are really like key tables, and they were like either two tops or

four tops. Great group by the way from the sixties and now it's a quarter to eight, two hours later, and I'm realizing, look at this, there's no none of these tables have been sat yet. I kept going on my app because I'm sitting at the bar, and I had to know, like if I tried to get a reservation right now, could I And the answer is no, they're sold out. So I'm saying that that's a physical impossibility.

This place is losing revenue by the minute. They have twelve empty tables here and it's been an hour and forty five minutes and they haven't said anybody at them. So what did I say, Brodie? What did I say? What did I say? I said, excuse me, miss Spartander, I said, uh, you know, what's it doing with these tables here? It says you're sold out? And she was, oh, those are v I P tables. So I got curious and I said, so, how do you become a v I P? And she says, oh, you need to be

either an Instagram model or a famous person. And I said, I'm famous. I said, I looked it right in the eye. My my buddy spit out his drink like almost of course, but I said it, and it wasn't do she it was more a matter of fact. But I was so upset. I gotta be honest. But I said it. Oh, how should I have said it? Well, I would at first I would have said Ron Burgundy style like I'm kind of a big deal. No, I would have been a little more humble and say, well, just just out of curiosity,

like how famous? How well known do you have to be to qualify his fame? Like I would like play it out like I wasn't sure of myself. She quickly were like, I'm famous. She immediately didn't believe me, so she's like, and I immediately pulled out my phone and I showed her my Instagram following because the blue check mark combined with what a hundreds eighties seven thousand something followers, that okay, And it may be a douche thing to people listening, but in the heat of the moment needed to.

I needed to prove myself that I can back back it up because I said something and now I need to back my statement up with some sort of proof, whatever that may be. In this case, it was in the form of Instagram. I don't know, So I hand a hand uder my phone and she socials. Oh, she rolled out from behind the bar to get the general manager. And the general manager comes up to me, and you know, I mean, I don't wanna have to go into great detail, but let's put it this way. We had a nice

conversation and by the end of it. At first he even listen to radio, and he was a little a little you know, a little sass. You got a little sass there and then but then we became friends. I said, I don't I don't expect you listen to radio. You live in the city, and you know he's not from here. And he's like, um, you know whatever. So the short of it is, now he says, anytime you want to come in, text me, but just give me more than an hour's notice. Now, I don't think they should do this.

They should have this for anybody for you know, forget about the fact that I got through and I got to be able to be sitting at one of these tables quote for the future. And I know it's again I don't want to come off sounding pompous, but no, but wait a second, but but but I don't think they should be treating I think anybody and everybody should

be able to have those tables. I was just doing it because I've I've tried to go there in in weeks and months and years past, and I can never freaking get into this place like I got to crack the code. It almost becomes a challenge on how can you how can you like beat the system? How can you get a leg up? Don't you see that? I

I see that, I do see that. Um yeah, I just I just think you could have been a little more humble about it as opposed to wit a minute, I've got a three point nine GPS if that's what it takes to get into Harvard, look at me. So I feel like I listen, I I don't know if I would have done it, I would have I would have questioned it. I would have I would have sort of been beating around the bush and you know, so uh you know, um how you know and just play

like what is it? Qualified? Then once they said, well, if you know you're an influence or you have a lot of followers, you a well, you know, what's the thing I qualified as an influencer to I got two out of three. Funny, you should mention that you know, I have a hundred and fifty thousand, whatever. You get numbers, you don't have to brag about it. You know, you're verified on Instagram, You're a big shot. I think you could have eased into it as opposed to throwing your

phone at her. I just felt I I felt slighted. I felt like, really, I think every anybody in that position, the way she made the statement to me, well, those tables are form V I p s. That's for Instagram models and influencers and famous people. Like it's almost like, oh, yeah, you betch like I want. I just I was, you know, backed into a corner and I started punching. I just just throwing it all, throwing the kitchen sync at her. I just want anything that I could get my You

know that that it was that momentary. But it was that momentary, you know, because that's not my demeanor. You know, that's not my character. You know that I'm not the kind of person to go throwing myself around like that

and in inserting myself in situations. By the way, if you have a friend who you told to listen to the podcast and they've listened to an episode or two and they like it, and they come to me and they say, hey, I'm really enjoying the podcast, but I can't tell the two guys apart which one is the humble one. Remember, I justa me me mr. I'm always right. I just became the normble one. Thank you. Hold on dropped my mic. I just dropped the mic. How did

you become the humble one? Because I would have been humble in this particular situation. I told you what I would have done. Oh all right, well, um, you know, I mean I I might qualify. I'm not sure. I mean I I have some notoriety because of the job. For you have been triggered the way I was. She was she was. She literally pulled the back the sling shot and shot the ball between my eyes. That's how she That's how she made the comment to me. She would foom. So she's doing that, I gotta go right

back up. Foom foom foom. That's that's the point. That's the point. It's nothing to do with me trying to throw my name around. I was just it got me so angry in that moment. I think anybody would have been pissed, but I really don't. I think everybody should be able to have a shot at going to this place. What you could have done was you could have you could have done a U. Do you remember the movie

Pretty Woman. Yes, Julia Roberts is a prostitute. And by the way, they make it like it's a romantic Disney film, but you know, all the rescued by the rich guys. She's a prostitute. I mean, let's you know, if you're a prostitute listening to the podcast God Bless you, I'm

just saying. In the movie she's anyway, she goes into this fancy was at bell Air Rodeo Drive Rodeo Drive store, and she goes in and she's looking and she says, like, you know, her hair is messed up, and she's wearing ratty clothes from like her hooker days or whatever, and that she goes into this posh posh, posh posh posh

bush store and they don't they don't help her. They don't help her because they think she's not on their level, right, And so Richard Gere, who is the guy who's paying hard to be his escort, his um, his arm candy for an event, he gives her the credit cards and she goes in this huge shopping spree right in every store. But this one store where they where, they were like laughing at her and didn't want to help her, and they treated like they embarrassed her. They made her feel

like like poor. Right, she goes back in with these bags from all of the big stores. She's all fixed up, she looks fantastic. She Julia Roberts, right. She says excuse me, and they like, yeah, she do you work on commission? And the girl says yeah and shes big mistake, huge and walks out. And so that was your opportunity to pretty woman them and say, you know what, I'm scary, motherfucking Jones. By the way, do you understand the absurdity

of what you just said there? Yeah, Like you know what, I am famous, I am an influencer, and I'm walking the funk out of here and I'm going to influence my people not to come to this establishment. Boom walk out. Mistake, huge, big mistake huge. It doesn't work like that. Come on, that's what you should have done, right now, you know you should have be like, oh, oh, I can get

a table now, thanks, I'll take a table. Didn't order a bunch of food and then walked up the funk out order some Johnny Walker blue like really expensive ship, like twelve year old Scotch and then just go. You know, you know, my my ferraris outside. I gotta go put in the quarter in the meet. I'll right back and just leave the funk out of there. And you walk out. You put your fists in the air, and you go for the people, and you walk out for the little guys,

for the slices, and you walk out. That's what I would have done, exactly what I would have out and blaze of glory. You know. The thing is, I want to be there. I want to go back again. That's the problem. That's problem. You don't want to visit this place. I don't want to. I don't want to ruin it. I don't want to last. You're honest about it. I don't want to burn a bridge. I mean it's a great spot. No, it's a nice spot. We're actually you want to go there for drinks? I don't rate. Yes

you do, let's go. I don't have as many Instagram followers, allegedly, I'm very by the way, I have not. I've not tested this yet. This guy probably you know, he maybe he gave me a number like a burner phone number or some ship. He's not going to ask you here. I hear. It's an awesome place for the record. But you know what if in honor of the slices, I

don't think I'm gonna go, at least not yet. When when the little people can go, when everyone is free in America, if they served steak and they got you a steak dinner, uh yeah, but they'll probably compy you because you're famous, your influence. Well there, so you beat, Well, I met beat because I didn't fall for it. I didn't fall for it. All right, So we have some sound we gotta play, and then a lot of sound. Last week's sound we didn't get to in this week's sound.

All right, let's play some sound, homie. Let's do it, all right? So I have um Happy Father's Day here, Happy Father's Day. Or we can skip that one and move. Oh no, I'll play it. I just remember what it was. Maybe play a second of it, refresh my memory about our whole line of automotive accessories. Go to weather a check that or called one hundred car mats for the ultimate Thedoko protection. Choose weather Tech, proudly made in America

and from all of us at weather Tech, Happy Father's Day. Okay, So I look, I don't want to make fun of anybody's accent, but the way he says it, he says happy. Now I know that's that's northern Midwest, So I apologize. I just was trying to identify where that's from. Play played again. Just who says happy? Is it? Is it? It's Midwest? Is it Ohio? Minnesota? Who says happy? Those two about our full line of automotive accessories. Go to WeatherTech dot com or called one hundred car Mats for

the ultimate thedeople protection. Choose weather Tech, proudly made in America and from all of us at weather Tech, Happy Father's Day. Sounds like he's from Cleveland. Okay, that smart, that's a educated guess. All right. So Anderson Anderson Cooper, Oh, Anderson Cooper. I have been to like Anderson Cooper. We've had him on the show. He's a brilliant man. And by the way, if you don't know, Anderson Cooper's mother

was Gloria Vanderbilt. Uh in the in the in the eighties, Gloria Vanderbilts sold Vanderbilt jeans, but before that, she is part of the Vanderbilts, which is which is one of the richest families in the history of America. If you've ever been there, like, um, what is it? What's the area in Newport, Rhode Island where the houses all the mansions. They were like bigger than hotels, and they the people were so rich. They were there for like a week a year, like they go for a week or two

in the summer. They had kitchen staffs of like a hundred people. It was like a like a giant hotel. So that one one one of the places has like every bit of red marble marble in Africa. They imported every bit of red marble. The unbelievable mansions anyway, So so Anderson Cooper's home, one of his homes, is one of these mansions. That's now it's half a museum and half is still a residence. That's how big it is. Anyway. Anderson Cooper is an award winning journalist, award winning a brilliant,

well spoken man. Okay, play the clip of him talking about his son, who is now twelve months old, just celebrated his birthday. Anderson, how old your son turned one? Yeah, he just he turned one April he turned one years old. One years old, one years old, one years old. Anderson's Cooper's Anderson's Cooper. It's only one year, one year old. Why don't you got Gary Cohen from the match? He's Cohen. Gary Cohen is a legend, long time an. Gary Cohen is legend. I want you to play the Jinnee Cokeley

clip next. Gary Cohen is a legend. He is one of the greatest baseball announcers. I don't care. You're a fan of whatever team. I know you love your guys, whoever they are, your announcers. I'm telling you Gary Cohen is an award winning, all time great announcer. Well, the Mets. If you're Cleveland, Cleveland Indian fan, you know they traded this offseason for Francisco Lindor, one of the best shortstops in baseball, one of the best players in baseball. I'm

sorry to Cleveland and you're upset we lost him. He's been on the team now since I don't February January when they made the trade. Whatever, right, Francisco Indoor play the clip? How many different styles of gloves and shoes do you think Fernando brings to the table of Fernando. Oh, that's an honest mistakes straight. Gary knows these players backwards and forwards. It's just a he just that's a brain fart right there. He called him Frando three times. Alright, Okay,

do you have Jeanne Cockley? Uh, Louise Yeah, yea yea yeah, yeah, okay, Janette. Sorry, Janet Cockley, I'm sorry Janet Cockley. In my opinion, she's um a local sportscaster on the Mets Network. Okay, I believe she's a very attractive, very bright woman, but I don't believe she really is into sports. I feel like she reads the teleprompter. Okay, Now, the Mets have a player Louise ga Mo g u I l l e R m O. He's been on the team for a

few years. He's not a new player, Luis Guillermo. If you know him, you know how to say his name, right. Obviously she doesn't. If you looked at the teleprompter, it would look like g U I L L E R like Guillermo. Right, but you should know the guys on the team for a few years. Let's listen to what how she pronounced all right? Back to the madre or went to for four. They both got it wrong. No, he corrected her. He said me, you said Guillermo. What

you said, I'll tell you what I said, Guamo. I'm sorry I said Gillermo because the next clip somebody calls him Guermo. I'm sorry, it's me. It is Luis Giorme. I apologize. I brave farted deck to show right here. Well, no, but I'm looking at if you could scre up, you're right, but I'm looking at my notes right here, and it says Guermo. Giermo gearme on my on my computer right. So I was okay. So the point was he's on the team. It was as if she had never heard

his name before. Never his name. No, what I got Pat? Oh, Pat vi Linka. Let me tell you about Pat vi Linka. So the Mets bring up a third string catcher, not known for his hitting, never heard of him. He's not a top prospect, kind of an unusual looking guy with glasses and a beard. And he gets up I think his first game. He hasn't every major league hits basses loaded, and he swings as hard as he can. The ball goes about twenty ft, little squibber, and he wins the game,

he's save it for wins the game. He's a hero. Right the next night, if I remember correctly, because a few weeks ago, he walks with the bases loaded, wins the game. He's the game winning guy, the hero. Two games in a row, he said, nobody hasn't had a lot of major league experience, right, Okay, So, so play

the clip of them talking about him. The right center field that falls in there, Kevin Polar racing in the Mets came back, they tie the game at two and two, and then moments ago Pat Laka Mr fielder's choice hangs in there and the bad here coming. Bar Okay, So that there's a clip he's very excited about Pat Vilenka. The problem is his name is Meskas. M hmm, Okay, I think I'm saying the guy's name is Pat Mezkis. It's not Ka. No, he kept calling Vilnka. It isn't

even close to Meskas. Where where do the Mets came there? Announcers these days, Volinka, I really do feel that a prerequisite of being a Mets announcer would be knowing how to pronounce and knowing the names of everyone on the team. Okay, but again, that wasn't a lot. I mean everyone else listening. People listening didn't get it, but you corrected it and you understand understand it. Now Muzik is right, but they're

not also not working for the Mets, so right there. Okay, so that that guy also works for the Mets network. He's doing the highlights after the game. It wasn't live, which means he's reading it off teleprompter where somebody typed in Velinka, Okay, what's the next clip? I got back Sync and we're done. No, I sent you more than that. It's all I got. I have all the clips from last week. That's all I got for this week is back Sync. Let me look at my clips. It doesn't matter,

it's we got. It's all we got to sink. Here's the entertainment reporter talking about the members of back Sync, which is two guys some Backstreet Boys and two guys from in Sync. Correct, this is the entertainment reporter talking about four of the biggest pop stars of the past thirty years. Play the clip tricks on You that is in syncs WLANs Bass and Joey Ptode joining the Backstreet Boys, Nick Carter and A. J. Blean for that new version of in syncs Big hit Bye Bye Bye. Isn't a McClane.

You're gonna you're splitting hairs, roady, Come on, man, this is a waste of time. What are we doing here? What are we doing? Let let's edit that one out. Let's edit that one out. No, no, okay, it's been edited. No stop, dick. I just think that the guy got got his name Roy, isn't it. I'm asking you a serious question because McLean. It doesn't make it's so close. I mean, I'm asking what the country thinks it's McClean happens. What does he say? He says McLean, I don't know.

It doesn't but it doesn't matter either way. It's it's way too close for us to highlight as a clip. It doesn't make sense and delete it. No, well, then you're a bigger dick than I am. You sucked me last week. I said, I said, edit this out. You're like, okay, reading it out? And then you didn't? You dick, or even good god? You know, we we have to really raise the bar or lower the bar a little bit on these clips because it's sometimes it's all interpreted. It's

interpreting open interpretation. McLean McClean is not okay, it's not like, oh my god, he made a mistake. Okay, we shouldn't have ended on that one. Then that's too late, pad Vilinka. But again that is in either direction. Know who he is. The point is his name is Meziki Okaye made a mistake on camera. I feel terrible. And Gary Cohen he's a long time you know he knows Francisco Lindor is Fernando multiple times. Just he's slipped his mind. It happens

to the best of us. A right now, Sometimes we gotta get when you got you famous guys, you like to apologize. I'm just saying. I'm just saying sometimes you get gotta get people a little bit of a pass. All right, it's the pass and nine mistakes that you know. It's the Katie. But as of the world that next time, all right, Anderson Cooper can get a pass for one years one years old. No, you know, his brain said

one thing, his mouth said another. And that's not the only time in his life he said one years old. I'm gonna go I wanna go on record and say that this entire clip segment was all uncalled for. I think we didn't have to call these people out for their their little minute. Another one. You made the mistake too, You made the mistake. Okay, hold on, So if you can't get it right, I can get it right. I was right, all right, you know what use celebrities? Enough?

Fair enough. I had an embarrassing moment at a great new restaurant. I went to. What happened, Well, so there's a new restaurant. It was a location um about half hour from my house on a major strip. There used to be a place called Chevies, right, yes, Chevy, and some people call it Chevis and guess what they wouldn't be It was not an outrageous mistake. If they call that Chevies, it's Chevys, like the car. That's great. But some people call it Chev's. It's okay, Okay, what if

they call it Reese's Pecs? Now you got to say no because it's the guy's name. Okay, Well, Chevy's is named after a car. Okay. Anyway, Chevy's burned down. They replaced it with a place called Zinberger, which was very good, but they got hit by COVID and they went out of business or whatever. They went out of business round sometime last year. Well, they reopened as a place called Timothy's Pub and Grill, or no, let me, let me

school you. That's called Tommy's Tapping Tavern. And by the way, there's five of them, with one being in seabright, another one being in free Hold. Yes, I haven't checked out the one in Clifton yet. Tommy's Pub and Tavern wasn't Tommy's Tapping Tavern. Let's get the clip of Brody's saying pub. Hold on a second. Let's let's all right. My point is I went there for the first time, to this location. What did you think The menu, first of all, is almost the size of um It's almost the size of

the menu of cheesecake factory. It's it's it's huge. When thea came over, were just came over. By the way, the way to his name is Katie, so I saw. I was with my friend Jeff, who does not know that Katy babs bit so the wages because my name is Katie and it perhaps and nobody else talked about. But you entertained yourself. I left so hard. Anyway. She was a great waitress. There was no there's no bad

part of this story. The menu is so long. What we ordered on drinks, we ordered an appetize when the girl when when Katie came back to the table, I wasn't even done reading the salads yet. There's then there's like ten twelve burgers, there's fifteen entrees, there's wraps, there's oh my god, we had the you know, like bang bang firecracker, shrimp and firecracker. It was half columari, half

shrim and I've had that before. Fantastic. Okay, everything on the menu, I would say almost everything, maybe ninety three and a half was brody food. It was fun, tasty, great combinations of burgers, of chicken, palm, of salads. I would eat, wraps, pulled pork, mac and cheese, you name it. They had dropped my phone. They had so many things. Then the back was all these you could customize pizza they had. Uh, it's it's a playground. It is a

food playground. I didn't think we could get either alive. I have not been this excited about a theme restaurant in a long time. And Katie was great. The food was perfect. This is not a commercial for them, but not a commercial. I'm gonna try to get into our sponsor because they have several locations, so they've got to have some money. Give that name again. Scary not they're not a sponsor. Homies tap and tavern and there's enough.

You gotta go to the one and see bright and you gotta go to the one in Freehold both imagine they're all the same menus. Yeah, but I know, but those get turned up on the get turned I was going there to get full Saturday night. They turned into like a little mini night ubs. They're awesome. Here's the problem. And I don't know if it's their fault or not, because, like I said, it was zin Burger and before that it was Chevy's right. So they may not have they

may not have built the bathrooms. So and I think I've talked about this before. So you're saying the bathroom was from a previous owner, the previous the existing bathrooms, they're in the same location. Whether or not they change things, I don't know. So I go into the handicap stalks. That's the one that's available. There's somebody near the stolen The handicap stole is handicap optional. You don't have to be handicapped to use it. You can it's just there

in case your hand. Sure, so I go in now when you sit on the toilet scared and I think I've talked about this before, but who can remember every episode besides the slices. Of course? When you sit on the toilet, do your knees face forward? Are your feet flat on the ground? Do you do a little man spreading when your knees go out to the side a little bit? Nah? Straight on? Really, see, I like to do a little man So I like to spread the kneecaps a little bit to get a little little stottle area,

you know, let the boys breathe. And so to the right of me, whether handicap rail was is exactly where they put the giant toilet paper dispenser, so that it's right up against your leg. There is no You're like you're trapped against the toilet paper dispenser. And because you're in a handicap stall, I understand why it's normally lower, but it's so low the bottom you have to reach down underneath to get the toilet paper. You have to

reach up and under even if you're handicapped. Once you're on the toilet, you can reach a little higher up right you're sitting is sitting okay. I So I do my business and I'm feeling like I'm gonna need a lot of the toilet paper. That's where I'm going with this. Well, yeah, we had finished eating, so you finished eating, and to make my bed eyesight cost me a lot of money. I'll tell you why in a minute. So I reach under. No, I don't reach under yet. I'm still going right. It's

one of those perpetuals where you're not finished. Do you think you finished, but you're not. And then the somebody knocks on the door bo and he's jiggling the door like he's trying to open it. I'll go, whoa, whoa, someone's in here. He says, I think you're gonna want me to come in. I go, what excuse me? He bends down and he throws under the under the door a giant wheel of toilet paper, and he says, sorry, man, normally I leave it open. I went to get toilet paper,

and you got here before I got back. So there was no toilet paper in the giant toilet paper to spencer next to me. You hadn't even noticed it. No, because it's black plastic. The bottom is so low you couldn't see whether there was toilet paper hanging out of the bottom or not. So he saved your as literally literally saved my ass. So I'm like, holy shit, I said, no, punish you. I said, thank you so much. He goes, I told you want me to come in at least.

So back in March, which

was Monday, I believe, we got sent home early. It was the first day of the officially the pandemic as far as our company was concerned. And they said, that's say everybody got home. If you're not essential, get out. And so we all left together, Scary, Nate from the Big Show me. The three of us left at the same time to go to our garage. We all went, we talked, and I pulled out of the garage first, Nate and Scary right behind me. I got to the

I may have told the story on the air. I got to the first second corner, which is has a park on the left. There's no street, just a park, and then you can go straight or make a right. I came to the stop sign. I stopped, to the best of my knowledge, looked around. No one on the street barren because of the pandemic. There was no one on the street in New York. I may the rice signaled and made the right. I signaled, made the next right,

and I whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo. Who I get pulled over A guy in a school in a little three wheeler like a box with wheels. Uh, and and say says, uh, you blew the stop sign. No, I did not blow the stop sign. You know, I'm out into that. But I said, officer, I I thought I stopped. He says it was a rolling stop. So I said, I said, I'm terribly sorry. I said, but um, I said, look I I it's gonna sound like I played the I'm Scary Jones in the in the bar thing. But I said, look,

I'm not I'm not a lawbreaker. Um. My dad was a police officer for thirty years in New York. In fact, for some many of his years, he wrote a scooter. He wrote one of these three wheel little boxes that he did. I said, did your job? So I have nothing but respect, I said, But you know, I I came to the light to stop sign. I thought I stopped. I may have done the stop. It's okay to go. I may have done that. I may have, you know, come to like two miles an hour. Nate was right

behind me. I was I was worried. M you know, rerend me. And I said to him, I said, look, I'm a little stressed. It's COVID. We don't know at that point, nobody knew anything. We didn't know how serious it was gonna be. I just was like, if I'm getting sent home and the news reports in Italy and I'm a little for a little scary, a little right, okay, right, the guy's hold on sod. One more thing. I said to him. I said, look, I said, I'm a little nervous.

I said. Plus at the time, a year and a half ago, I don't know if you remember this scary. My mom had fallen down heart her ankle, and so she was getting physical therapy. And you know, with the COVID outbreak. My mother's was an advanced age at that point she had she couldn't leave the house, right, They're like old people gotta stay home. You can't be out right. So I said to you, alvious, look, my mom's not doing well. I'm the only child. I'm going there today.

I go there almost every day. I take it to her rehab appointment. I take her home. Um. In fact, uh, we're trying to get I'm trying to get like rehabit home. I said, please, I'm just a very please give me a break. And he said, he says, you know, did you look around? I said, yeah, I looked. There was nobody there. I said. The only person I saw there was one guy in the park, but he was on the other side of the park, like forty ft away. And now I only told him that so he would know.

When I got to the stops and I looked around, I said, it was a guy in a green hooded sweatshirt. Whatever. Right, So he comes back. He goes to his car. I figured, he's gonna run my license plate to see if it's stolen car. It's not. I figured, I'm clear, dad's a cop. I gotta help my mom COVID. I'm I'm a little, you know, stressed. He goes, I gotta give you a ticket. What now, I've never gotten a ticket violation. Okay, I get wait a minute, I have to I'll back up

in a second. So I said, what do you mean. He says, I was gonna let you off as a courtesy to your father, and you seem like a good guy. But you told me I saw a guy in the park. I said, yeah. The guy was fourty feet away. He says, yeah, but he could have had a kid. Kid could have run in front of your car. I said, Officer, the kid would have had a run out a hundred miles an hour, and if if he went in front of my car at one mile an hour, I think he

would have been fine. I looked at the point was I looked, I'm sorry, because you can fight it in court if you want. So it's got postponed a year and a half because of COVID, which is why you were in Lower Manhattan today for your court date. Right, So you have to go into the lobby of the building. When I finally got there, and they send you to an officer of the court security guard whatever he is. He's behind a wall. You go bind the wall and

he says, A right, let me see your information. He says, I go over to that wall and scan the bar code with your phone. If you don't know how to do it, I'll show you. Well, there's a sign on the wall and it's it's a it's a QR code. So I said, I don't see a barcode. I wasn't being a wise ass. He says, it's right down the wall. I said, there's a QR code here. I don't know what that is. But you want to scan the bar code? So I said, do you mean? Hold on? So I part was My part was a lot of people were

confused and just me. You see the square box with the thing in it, everyone knows. They picked out the phone and they hit eight pages taped to the wall. I didn't know which one he was playing. Way, the point is I went upstairs, right, okay. So now as a whole way with a bunch of benches, and I had to go into room eight. So I wait my turn and go into roommate and there's a clerk working behind the counter, very nice lady, and I said, hey, listen, I'm a little nervous here. I said, uh, uh, is

this is this judge? Is he? Uh? Good guy? Says I. I've been working with him for years. He's the fairest of all the judges. You got lucky, fast of them. All right, you got lucky, he said, judge. Blah blah blah. He's the best. You should be. Okay, you're a good guy. You Okay. So I got in the hall and I'm sitting with a I don't know, like eight eight guys who look guilty and some look innocent. But it's a couple of guys. I'm You're sitting out there with twelve

angry men, the twelve angry men. Yeah, those were the jurors, by the way. An So I'm talking to one guy and and another guy and like five of them all in the same problem. They're all on a bridge of Manhattan called the fifty nine Street Bridge of the Queensboro Bridge, and they all were caught driving in the H O V lane, which you can't do if you're alone. Okay, Now I'm thinking to myself, I only saw one police officer walk into the room, into the court, into room eight,

and he had a mask on. I don't think it's my guy. And so he turns out he's the guy for all of the other people sitting there who all got nailed on the Queensboro Bridge. Now, the Queensboro Bridge is all the way uptown on the Upper Easton, has nothing to do with the district that this cop would be working, right, And I'm like, this guy is not my guy. Ship you guys not gonna show up here.

It comes okay. So now that the first guy goes in and he's got a little broken English and he's trying to explain, and I hear him going, but do you know I was in there. They told me right, and the copy. The cop is yelling at him, don't tell me. That's not an excuse. I know what you did. And the judges like, sir, do you have any valid proof that blah blah blah and I and we hear the yelling like, oh my god, this is supposed to

be the nice guy. Oh my god. So then the second guy goes in and he's getting yelled at the cops yelling at him because he's not making any sense. And the judges like, you can't come into my courtroom and make up this and and fabricate that you have photographs. You're not photographs. Don't waste my time. I'm like, oh my god, this is the nice guy. Okay. So one of the lawyers comes out of room five and he sees me on the bench and he sits down across and he goes, uh, you in room five. I said no,

I'm waiting for roommate. He goes, oh, if you're in room five, today's your day. I said, why there's a little scam. He tells me, because I'm not supposed to say anything. But he says that the officer that's that's supposed to be in room five today, he's he's um, he called out sick today, but he got transferred to like upper upper upper Upper Upper Manhattan, like he left the NYPD. He's he's gonna be a Westchester comper with

white plains. He goes, he's got one more week on the job here in the city, so you don't give a ship. He goes anyone, he goes anyone who wants to come in. Just ask for a postponement for two weeks, and then he's guaranteed not to come back. And apparently if the officer doesn't come back, it's your word against his. They dismiss you. It's instant dismissal. Okay, Now, one thing I didn't tell you was in Jersey. If you could now, I said I had never been pulled over before. Remember

an old episode. I got pulled over for holding my phone because you wouldn't stop texting me. So in New Jersey, if you go to court, they let you plea out. They'll come up and you go, listen, we're backlogged here. Too many people in line. Uh, you want to plead guilty to no seatbelt and then they don't give you two points and the fine goes down. You're like, yeah, no seat belt no problem. You go to the judge. He goes, no seatbelt, uh huh yep, and you leave.

You just pay the ninety bucks whatever you leave. Well, in New York they don't do that. They will not drop the points. So my violation was like two thirty dollars and two points, which means my insurance goes up. So I'm sweating bullets at this point, right. So the fourth guy goes in, he gets ye all that. Now, I had a one o'clock appointment. It's one fifty five, okay, I have not seen my guy. My officer, the lawyer I was talking to. He says, hey, man, it's almost

two o'clock. If this guy doesn't show up by two o'clock unless he called out sick and the judge is aware of it, you're good to go. So I'm like, this is fantastic. I'm good to go. Well, I hear Brodie. So I go in the room and the officer is now not wearing his mask, and I realized it's my guy. All fuck, So I go, hi, officers, nice to see again, Hey how are you? And the judge says, oh, welcome, Mr Brodie. Stand over here, and he says, say your name your birthday, the whole thing. He says, do you

have any paperwork you'd like to submit? And now I have a whole speech prepared. Scary. I've been rehearsing my speech about my father and I came to a stop. I worked around the guy in the park. I got the whole thing memorized right, and I brought my mom had a print out of her re have schedule right, all the dates she had rehabed, trying to make her go to rehab. She said no, no, no, So I said to the guy, look, it was the first day of the pandemic. Everyone, I tell little Frazzle whatever I said.

In plus, I was my mother's only caregiver and she was going in home rehab, and she had a couple of rehab appointments I had to take her to, and every day after work I would drive to her house, bring her groceries, bring her food. She couldn't leave the house. I was her only caregiver, and I was terrified if I got sick, I wouldn't be able to see my own mother. So he says to the officer, is that is that true? So he says, well, yeah, he did mention his mother was not well, but it was after

I gave the ticket, which is not true. I told him right away, he says. So he says, all right, all off, sir, are you prepared to testify? And he says, listen, um, look, I don't want to. I don't want this. I don't want to punish this guy's helping his mom, you know. And the judge looks at the paperwork he says. He says, you know, she didn't have a rehab appointment that day, but you were taken care of her, right yep, every day I take care of her, officer, Are you prepared

to testify us to what happened that day? Yeah, she's uh, you know, I I'd rather not. Alright, not guilty boom. But you know what, he knew you were David Brody for the Elvis to Ran Morning show, Garret. We didn't know. He didn't because I said to him, I said, oh, we're big fans of your precinct, because you know there's a precinct right by our station. I said, you know, you know, I said precinct. He knew. No. No, he goes, well, I don't know what that means because I'm not from there.

I'm a roving traffic guy. So they put him wherever they they want to do, like a traffic like a hot spot, like a trap matter. He's a trapnee in vehicle twelve hours a day, listening tour. He was a good guy. They let me off because I listen. I'm glad I brought this the physical therapy schedule because I was able to prove that she was in physical therapy. And I said, you know whatever, he's like, but you should have seen the game was so nice. So I

was like, officer, not in respect nothing. You guys love it. I said, Judge, you're the best. And then the clerk, the woman who told me he was the fairest judge, She hands me my my release papers and she fist bumps me. She goes, I told you. Everybody else got yelled at everybody else. It was your lucky day. I was sitting in the hole. It was like watching people get killed, like going into a room and have their

hands cut off. Like the third guy got yelled at in The fourth guy was like, I don't want to go in there, grace. Guys are going to clear up. Put on a happy thing. Oh my god, not guilty, not guilty. You can't. You can't trap me in the car. I can handle myself because you're from broken. Nice see you in three weeks.
