#198: Keeping Up With The Kentuckians

gonna offer anything special. So the guy who's making a big deal out of two hundred is part of the opening, says, we shouldn't make a big deal out of two hundred. You just made a big deal out of it. I don't have nothing planned. No, we got nothing planned to anything from episode one either. I love the way people are contacting us, the slices. We love you, but please let's under promise and over deliver. You know, we don't want we want to manage your expectations here. One guy said, Oh,

I can't wait. Maybe they'll do a retrospect, right, this is like the major cable news channel or or a TV show. We don't have personnel, we don't have staff. I'm sitting in my basement exactly, washing washing, machine next year, and you know, I'm in my apartment hanging out, and you know I don't have a whole lot of time.

Here's what we did. Here's what Scary and I took the all of the best things we've said, all of the best rants, all of the best parodies, all of the best questions at Scary has every We've taken everything, and we've spaced them out evenly over a hundred previous episodes exactly and with zero zero So you can and follow Brooklyn boys quotes on Twitter. Yeah, yeah, you know,

be quotes, I think. But the thing is this though, I mean, because he puts all the quotes in what he feels are the best of and it puts a time code. Someone suggested we we get together and we we get edited down like little clips of the best of our moments and make that part of two hundred. But I don't have them. We don't have the manpower to do that. We don't have a staff. Yeah. Now you might be saying yourself, well, don't you guys both

edit audio and don't you guys absolutely? Yeah, But I'm going to the Mohamas in about twelve hours, right, and I'm going back upstairs. Yeah, we're off next week, The Morning Show, the Big the Big Ship. Wait a second, what I think you're supposed to count? You just counter that with something big something I'm doing. I'm going back upstairs to my all inclusive house. I've got a well stocked refrigerator. All my drinks are included for the first time in the history of The Big Show and and

my career. Yeah, I have the whole week. We're off, the entire week. We never get the entire week, we only get technically on vacation. Right now, This is vacation time. Right now, we're cutting in. This is Friday, right they had November. Yeah, And so I figured, you know what, to commemorate my very first ever or time of getting off the entire week of Thanksgiving, I'm gonna go to the Bahamas for a couple of days and I'll be back in time for Thanksgiving next week. So there nice.

I'll be honest. I have looked into, um possibly taking just going away for a day of myself, a day to day. Yeah, I may go up with my friend, uh for a day day. I'll tell you why. Where which is my My middle daughter is home from college as of a couple hours from now, and I can't very well be like, oh, I'm so glad you're home from college. I'm going away. Why not she did it to you all this time? Yeah, yeah, she I paid. I paid for her to go away. Uh you know tuition. No,

I'm I'm not gonna do that. I'm not gonna know, so I I said. I told her. I said, listen, there's one night you're gonna go out with your friends whatever, and I may go out. Did you set up some quality time with your daughter? She comes home. Yeah, we're gonna have dinner one night, like just just so like I'm gonna I'm gonna go one night just with her two of us. You guys can go out. Yeah, she wants the steak din I'm taking for a stake dinner. Well, I mean this fair stuff, but I haven't seen it.

I want to spend some time. So she said, well, one night will at least one person is buying you, buying me. I'm buying at least one person is getting a free steak dinner here and that's her. Yeah, my favorite thing. Last night, by the way, Scary calls me last night's Thursday night and he says, you know, he had some handsome, stressful things that he had some scheduling problems, and we couldn't. We couldn't record Thursday. We're gonna, you know,

we record Wednesday. We couldn't record Wednesday because scaryead an appearance, which we'll talk about later. I definitely want to talk about that. So we moved it to Thursday. And then Thursday, Scary calls me and says, like, dude, I'm not I can't. I have all these things. And I said, that's fine, we'll do it Friday. We're gonna do a Friday afternoon. No, I'm going out. I have a thing. I'm doing something with the Brooklyn Boys. So I said, we we are

the Brooklyn Boys. What are you talking about? And then Scary reminded me the harsh slap in the face that when he says the Brooklyn Boys, he means his friends that he grew up with in Brooklyn were here first. Yes, as you know, Scary and I grew up in the

same neighborhood, but not at the same time. We didn't know each other prior to twenty years ago, a few years apart in age, and we were I don't know, we didn't know each other back then we're about ten blocks apart in a very big neighborhood, and in our neighbor to benson Hurst, Brooklyn two blocks is a city. So I know these guys since I was twelve. In fact, one guy I know since I was six. We were in the same kindergarten together right through. So we I mean,

this long standard history goes. When you first said Brooklyn boys, I was like, you're Brooklyn boys, right. And so he says, Oh, we're going out for a dinner at such and such restaurant. I said, okay, great. He goes, yeah, Ronnie's gonna be there. I was like, oh, great, bull freak, ball freak. And he says, oh, and Mike and Tony and Vinnie and Gino and he's one on the list. Hey, listen, list my name is on that list. I don't really care

who's going with. You said, that's a youth thing. Well, the reason why, the reason why I wanted to tell you the list was to make you less less wanting to come along with us, because it sounded to me at first you were like, oh, you guys going out for a steak dinner. Oh you want a steakhouse? All right? Oh, ball Freak is gonna be there. Oh oh yeah, okay, um yeah. And then then I had was fine when you got to like a little Pete, big Pete, that

was fine. But then when you got to guy I met at seven eleven named Joe, I thought that was a bit of much to be inviting him and not me. What I'm trying to say was I was trying to paint the picture of this group of people I'm going out to dinner with, including ball Freak. You don't know them all. You don't know any of them except for me, and I would ever get to know them would be to go to dinner, right, But we have old school like inside jokes. I don't want it. Yeah, but that

was the reason why. But that's why I you wouldn't want to go hang out with me when I got my my uh my junior high school reunion people, So that's what you met. But you opened this by saying that I was going on in a list of people. The reason why you went on and give you the list of people to make you not want to come because like, okay, you're right, this is how rude that sounds. No, But because I wanted to illustrate to you to make

sure you wouldn't want to come. I wanted to illustrate to you that that this is not your group, right. I wanted to paint the nice picture for you, a complete picture. I wanted you to come to your own conclusion that you know what, Yeah, I don't want to go to with them. It's there, it's their little click. I mean, technically, there could be a day where you, Ronnie and I go out to dinner as the uh Elvis s r. And Morning Show Brooklyn boys. Yes, yeah,

I don't mind. That could happen, and then you know who's gonna invite himself? The Jersey kid that he's not from Brooklyn. All right, well maybe the three of us will go out. We can actually figure that out if you want. Greg. He also owes me a part of the stake dinner conversation. So yeah, somehow he's got lost. We don't talk about his anymore. We haven't talked about his in five years. He owes you at dinner. Most

paranoid person ever. Yeah, I'll tell you what happened. So a couple of weeks ago, we were in studio on a Friday. On a Friday, Friday, right, And so I texted him and I said, and that was the week before you guys were going to Miami for the big wedding. So I texted him because he's down the hall. I hadn't seen him in a while. I said, Hey, t I'm in studio today. Everybody's here. Why don't you come down and say hello? So he texts back, ha ha, very funny. So I texted him back and I said,

what are you talking about? Come come say hi, We've got food. Comes hi. He says, I know you guys are Miami. I'm not a dick. Stop it. So I said, we're not Miami. Miami's next week. Okay, yeah right. So he didn't come down even though we were there. So I was in studio this week, Monday and Tuesday. On Monday, I walked down to his his radio station down the hall, and he wasn't there, and his producer informed me he only comes in Tuesday, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. He likes to

have long weekends. He doesn't come in on Mondays. And Frida sign me up for that. Yeah, I bet you exactly. So she says he'll be in tomorrow. It's okay, not a problem. Not a problem. So she must have told him that I was there. So he texts me and he says, hey, man, what's wrong. Nothing's wrong. I came down to Shi call me out of like this. Yeah. So, so I said, I'm gonna be in tomorrow. Don't you come say hi? No? Really, what's wrong? What are you

mad at me? I don't have your coat hooks? So I said, I don't think because so he goes, you come down check my office. I don't have him check my office. See that the code hook thing was was like a month ago. I don't think you have my coat hooks. You actually have a cult rack in your office. I don't. I'm not. I just wanted to say hi, I haven't seen you. Oh okay, And then he didn't. Then then he came down for the food. On Tuesday, he snucked down with his sweatshirt pulled over his head

at the hood up and and and left. So I text him, I go get in the studio. So he came in, but it's so difficult to get him to participate. He's so paranoid. He said, oh, what's wrong? He's got he's got some drain damage. I didn't steal anything. Yeah, so what's going on. I have a we gotta get my buddy Brian on the phone at some point. Not not not toilet Brian, jet skip Bryan because he is a character and fall asleep on the toilet Brian. Now not fall asleep on the toilet, Brian jet Ski. Bryan

is a character from Brooklyn. He's from sheep Said Bay and he is a fucking riot. Well what we got to talk to him at some point because he will bring a lot to this podcast. Um. Yeah, So sheep Said Bay is part of the southern part of Brooklyn near Coney Island, so it's on the water, big fishing town, so it's all fishing boats and seafood restaurants. In fact, I lived and worked in sheep Said Bay for a period of time. He got his jet ski business. He

started that in Sheep's at Bay. And then they're also home of the roach beef wars between the Rolling Roaster and Brennan and Carr getting very low, very sometimes I like to get annuals. There's two places in that area that are known for their roast beef and and we so when I worked at one of them, we used to play the other one in softball, and one of them I worked at Rolling Roast doesn't manage system manager.

So there was such a rivalry that had to stop having the softball games because we wanted to kill each other. Was it that bad? Because inevitably like like yeah, well you know you're you're up by a run, but your roast beef sucks. It just get ugly and they're not the same thing, like ones to sit down. One's a fast food place that happens to have some tables, but there's a rivalry there, but they can co exist. The

town is big enough for two roast beef joints. Please have a God help anybody who opens up a third. You know, thirds don't work normally. Usually it's one and two mutable laws of marketing that I think we talked about. We did, we did. You can't be third, right, So if you want to be sprite, you've got to create a new ladder and be first on that one. And technically the mellow Yellow Mellow Yellow is not like a thing. He's got sprighting seven up. Why would you go to

Meli yellows? You wouldn't sale. We've talked a lot about this at this podcast. I feel like I actould go into marketing if I if I ever leave radio, this this gig doesn't work out for you. One of my junior high school friends, his name is Ian. He's huge in the marketing and advertising world. He's like he's a president of companies. Every time he leaves a job to get the job as a president of company, big big sixcess,

very successful, bright guy. I'm I've known him for my you know, since junior high schools in seventh grade, and I always make jokes with him, like I'll send him like ideas for a product or something and he'll say, I'm working on this big ad for such and such, and I'll throw in I'll send him some stuff. I always want to make sure I keep my foot in the door in the creative marketing world, just in case the creative radio world ends up, you know, ending someday. Yeah,

you never listen. You never know when you want to, you know, you want to have connections, right, Oh, what's uh? You know? Because I'll so I'm creative. I would, I would, I would go I would stay in radio. Obviously, I would go into television if this gig dries up, because I like writing comedy. But I could do advertising and marketing because I I've come up with slogans and marketing

campaigns previously for other things that have worked. Um. In fact, I came up with the whole marketing campaign for NCL Norwegian cruise line that they loved. They haven't used it yet, but they love it. They love it. Yeah, And I recently wrote a political commercial that I'm never going to tell you about interest and tell you I did it. I became very popular anyway that a company produced it for me and they took credit and that was fine anyway.

So what would you fall back on if not radio industry? What would you do? That's a big problem for me right now. I don't have a plan. B and and you know the truth is I live and breathe and radio, and maybe I'll be a consultant for radio, but who knows. I remember when I first started, so I was probably working at the radio station for six eight months, maybe up to a year, and I was so goofy excited. Every time I got a song parody produced, or a spoof commercial or a jingle, I would I would get

copies of everything. I would I would put I would put stuff on cassettes and digital tapes and burn CDs, and I would say to Scary, hey, man, what do you have on your demo? I don't have a demo, dude, you should put together a demo. I haven't had a resume since I got my job in college with twenty three years. I've repeatedly said to Scary, you know you, that you should put that on your demo. Dem what if? What if this morning show ends and you need to find a job. What if what if I heart doesn't

let you back in the building. I can't think about these things. I can't think about these things. Brodie, I know, but you have to. I know. I guess we'll have this podcast. I have these memories. I have these memories with you. Yeah, well there you go. You know what? Speaking of our podcast, Hold on a second, what big news? What? Okay? Well, well, tickle tickling? Yeah, yeah, I'm tickling with the very proud, proud some some news involving our podcast, which after this

it's the boys podcast. Teasing it I do stop my wind up. I was teasing my heart to put us on a clock we were supposed to break four minutes ago. I'm just telling you listen, uh, speaking of my heart, we got an email. Well, I sent out an email to the to a corporate shot, big shot in the heart podcasting world, and I said, hey, how come we're running commercials for other podcasts on our podcast and a

lot of them aren't employees of I her radio. I think you should be running our promos on other people's podcasts. Down o the people's podcasts. And so that was before the pandemic, right, And so during the pan when the pandemic hit, he's today, we're putting a hold on some stuff and we've gotta bring out, rejiggered some things and figure to whatever. So when the pandemic, you know it's

you know, it's winding down. I'm not gonna say it's over, but when people are getting back to normal, I emailed them. I said, hey, remember we talked about that. Oh yeah, yeah. So he said, well, if you got promos getting to me. So we put together some promos and we sent them and they're gonna be on as of next week. The week of Thanksgiving, they start and you're running on national

podcasts around the country. That's what we're talking about. Let's get to listen to other podcasts and hear one of our commercials let us, let us know, let us know if you if you find it, if you hear it. Um, we're going global, Jerry Baby. So I'm actually excited because, um, I'm doing Thanksgiving at my brother's house this year. I don't know what you're doing for Thanksgiving, Brodie. Um, I'm

going to your mom's house. Oh, perfect, perfect, Yeah, it's not gonna be anybody there because my mom will be at my brother's house with me. That's why I'm going. Just break in, break in, get all the pictures of young Sky as a little bit. This is gonna be an interesting one. And I'll and I'll tell you why because I've for entire life, I was we always did Thanksgiving. That was the one holiday we always did at my

parents house in Brooklyn. So I've gotten so comfortable over the years that I you know, you know, over eat and then just you yeah, always, and then fall asleep on the on the lazy boy and we'll be watching watching the Cowboys game or whatever whatever it was. I would but but the point is I would get my sleeping in and I would sleep and I would be so good. They waked me up when it was dessert time.

So between dinner and dessert. Now that I'm going to my brother's house with my sister in law, I gotta be on my best behavior because her family is from Kentucky, from the South, and they were all coming up. Your brother married a Kentucky girl. Her family is southern. Now she was born in New Jersey. But and and her but her her mom's side of the family is from the South. And know nothing wrong with it, but but Brooklyn and Kentucky are not similar. So she's got all

my things. They are, but they're not the only thing we have there is Kentucky fried chicken in Brooklyn. Yeah, And so they're from the South, her her mother's side of the family, and they're all gonna be visiting, which is great because but at the same time, I'm not going to be able to do my after dinner rituals because first of all, I'll be in my in foreign soil, which is my brother's house in New Jersey. Well, normally you do have an appearance, you go and get paid. Well,

that was the other that was the other thing. Usually I I do that, you know that that event that I that takes me to Macy's. And we're not doing that this year. That's off the table but night. But beyond that, I'm now going to be amongst people I don't know. So I have to be on on my ship, right, I have to be like talkative, engaging. I've got to actually do so the offensive about Southerners, now, I would never do that. It's not about that, but it's more

about I just can't check out. I can't go lay on a sofa like a big oath. I can't like pay attention to the game and not the people. I have to get to know some of the people in the room. It would be rude if I didn't. And not only that, I'm also going to be eating different foods because they bring different side dishes to the table. So I think a turkey a company that turkey is gonna be a honey honey baked ham. And then beyond that, we're having like these Southern dishes which I don't know

what they are. Yeah, I'll report back to you know hello, yeah, yeah, okay, I'll listen to you. I think you're falling asleep and you're lazy boy. I'm like, where'd you go? But listening to you talk about your dinner? No, no, I you know, my, my, my, larger point here is, um, I don't know what I'm gonna do. Two A stay awake, be not be embarrassing, and you know, blow up a bathroom or something, you know, or see. It's just I like to be in the comfort of my own home to dress down. You like

to be casual. Thanksgivings the holiday for me where I could just let it all hang out. Wait a minute, supplying the Williams Sonoma pre brian turkey, I am, I am to your brother's house. Yes, it's it's that will be accompanied by the honey baked ham and what other these these southern dishes. What if these Kentuckians are the type that like a pre shot turkey. Well that's a great question. I don't know if they do or not.

I don't know. I'm gonna have to learn all new traditions and things that they may do at the table, you know. So so it's just gonna be a different Thanksgiving. I'm looking forward to it. But this is like me, you know, being out in public. I have to dress up for this. I have to shave, I don't you know. Usually I like to wear a crappy T shirt with a hole in it. Some stains jeans that are just you know, my comfy jeans. You know the deal. So this is it's gonna be an interesting one. And and

my my nephew Jack is turning too. It's his birthday on Thanksgiving, so we're gonna I gotta buy a you know, show up with a present, bring him an Elmo cake, you know that kind of thing. So what do you doing for Thanksgiving? By the way, I just googled Kentucky Thanksgiving and apparently Kentucky and eat turkey with their hands only. That's weird to me. That's a joke. No, No, I just googled it. Well, dude, I mean you should see

what I do to the bird. I'm I assault the freaking bird when I'm done cutting it, when i'm carving it. I carve because I carved the turkey in my house. By the way, I don't even know if I'm gonna be doing that this year. I don't know if I have a carving The man of the house, isn't he the carver? Yeah, I don't think I'm gonna I don't think I'm gonna be carving the turkey. And not to imply that your sister inlaw can't call the turkey because she's a woman. I'm saying, but he's it's his house,

it's their house, but he's he's hosting it, right. So yeah, so I may be off the hook on that too. But if we're not making the turkey, right, I have when I'm in the kitchen, I'm carving the turkey. After I'm done. You know how you have the bird there and then there's some meat leftover, and is you pick? I pay, lick your fingers. Oh my god, it's so good. I I rip part of the you know, the part closest to the breast, off of the undercarriage, by the

dark meat, by the thigh, but what's left underneath. We're talking about turkey, right, we're talking turkey. I love doing that. To me, that's the most flavorful and best part of the turkey. Do you put stuffing into turkey? No, we don't do that. Oh you're insane. Oh that's disgusting. That's salmonilla city. Oh you cook it long enough, it's great. And then you get that turkey juice stuffing inside in the ribs. Pull it out your fingers. That ship's dirty

in there. You shove stuffing into the cavity of the It's called stuffing because you stuff it in. Listen, I think we're on this. I know a lot of slices do that, but that's not me and my family. We don't do that. We stuffed the turkey cavity with sweet smelling things, with apples oranges and beat them rosemary celery, no onion celery. We shove us salary in my turkey. We shove things in there that that will make it smell nice and a little aromatic, little fragrant for a bathroom.

Body works turkey. I don't care what it smells like. You light a candle inside of it, noly sh it, it's not a lantern. And then by no, no, no, no, no, you've got it all wrong. You throw pot pourri in there. That's wrong with you. And then you you put you take this cheese cloth, but you put oh, you take the skin, and you put butter under the skin. You and then you put a cheese clush cloth over that. There's a whole way to keep it nice and juice.

Realizing this poor turkey, no juicy and moist turkeys. That's what we serve. And now you, on the other hand, what's your stuffing. Half of it's gonna be burnt. Half it's gonna be no, not at all. Like all the juices in the turkey, the outside gets crispy and the inside gets moist. Mustastic, No, not mush juicy, I just saturated. There's something about fantastic. The stuffing that went inside the bird.

It's just not my thing. I don't know. But what I've seen, the way you eat, that's where you draw the line. You I mean you, you, you. There's not a food that's come up to the radio station. You haven't gone off of some of that. And and you won't eat stuffing in the turkey. The our generations upon generations of Americans have been putting stuffing into turkey. But you're gonna be different. You're gonna do But for as many people that do that, there are a lot of

people that do it my way. And then that is stuffing outside the first tradition. I get that. I'm a traditionalist. I want stuffing. I don't want I'm not a I'm not a corned beef with peppers and onions and all kinds. I give me bread. Stuffing, that's it. Read stuffing, stuffing, that's it. I don't want. I don't want sausage stuff already, and well maybe, ah, there you go. I give you a sausage sausage. I'll tell you what ground beef. You

don't want to ground beef in your stuff. I'll tell you what I am doing for Thanksgiving for me personally now. Every year for Thanksgiving the radio show, our friends at Carmines and Virgils, not a sponsor, send up food for us. They usually do like a special Thanksgiving catering, and Carmines does a traditional They do turkey and sweet potatoes and cran bread stuffing and um and sausage stuffing and there's

like eight things you can like. You can get a pre course like a pre pre made meal, take it home or eat it there. And then Virgil's Barbecue, which is up the block, they do a smoke turkey, so the same sides, but a smoked turkey, which I like on occasion, but I think I prefer the non smoked for Thanksgiving if I'm thinking traditional turkey exactly so, because we're not doing it in studio, I called our buddy Glenn up and I see, Glenn, can I buy a little dinner for to action of the stuff I like

like not. I don't need the full I don't want I don't want string being cast I don't want Brussels sprouts with bacon. I don't whatever that is. I don't care, I said, Can I just get like the stuff? I like the Dave Rody stuff you canna you with the David the sweet potatoes stuffing that you know, the non green stuff. He said, absolutely. So I'm going in Tuesday to the city, I think to pick up my specially prepared David Brodie Thanksgiving meal that I will eat Wednesday

pre Thanksgiving. How about we're not going to share that with anybody. I got it for two if anybody in my family wants it. My wife doesn't eat turkey, not a fan of the turkey. My kids aren't either. They would rather have steak, the big steak fan for Thanksgiving. We've made turkey and then we'll make steak. You know, some some some people. Can you imagine that having venison on Thanksgiving? Listen, you do what you want. I'm not judging. There are some place in the Midwest people do it.

This probably places more in the South that do it, or you know, it's it's not a New York City thing, but it's definitely an American thing. You know, you eat what you eat, you eat whatever's around. If you live in a deer populated area, you know, the deer ends up on the table. What are gonna do now? In my area, we have deer roaming around and we have turkey. What I don't understand. I live in a in a popular populated town in New Jersey. It's not like I

live in the sticks. But everywhere every year, and I don't know if they're running away from somebody or they escaped, but every year around Thanksgiving, I feel like we're by the campfire, gather around kids. There's a pack of turkeys that walks down the street. I don't know if it's to say, come and get us your bitches, or look at us. We're not in the supermarket. Do you think

that they're grandstanding? They're hot dogging? Yeah, because I don't think you're allowed to shoot turkeys in my in my my my part in New Jersey. I don't you know the Staten Island area which New York City. A couple year they are infested. There is today too. I see people's posting video currently on Instagram, there's a lot of turkey,

turkeys and Staten Island. The problem is those you don't You un't you are what you eat you really wanna You want to shoot a wild turkey from Staten Island and you know it's been walking around pecking at the fucking disgusting garbage and muck all over the floors, and serve that for Thanksgiving? Would you do eat lobster? Yeah? Do you know what they eat? So move on their bottom feeders. They eat the bottom of the ocean, right, which is right, which is one of the reasons why

it's not kosher. Jewish people thousands of years ago decided that was bad, don't eat the bottom feeders. But with turkeys, I don't know. For some reason, it just seems more disgusting. While you shoot hunters don't hunt deer from like a farm. They don't. They don't go to like a petting zoo and shoot deer. Right. But while deer they eat, we're they eating eating grass and other animals poop. But I just feel like the turkeys on stand Island are just

pecking around eating garbage. If deer don't eat poop and the vegetarians that you don't tell me that there I think they're herbivores. They only eat Yeah, I believe so, I don't. But but turkeys are doing the same thing. But they're picking it like really gross things. And you know so I wouldn't. I wouldn't chance it. Would you rather eat a Staten Island turkey or stuffing from inside the bird? Stuffing from inside the Did I tell you about the email that one of our top sales guys

sent out. He phrased it wrong and got everyone excited. So you tell me based on I'm reading this now right, I'm gonna read take word for word what he wrote, and you tell me who, Well, how many people have access to tickets to this Broadway show ready for their For their big reopening, they have offered up two pairs for everyone on the show that would like to go. Oh, all that means anybody who wants to go gets two pairs.

Read that again, Read that again. For the reopening, they have offered up two pairs for anyone on the show that would like to go. Yeah, that means that means if you want to go, here's two you can have four tickets. Right now. That's four tickets for everybody. So I wrote back, I'll take it I'll take two pair, and he wrote back, they're already gone. Well, how can they be gone? You just everyone on the show. He says, No, Danielle took the two pair. What do you mean the

two pair? So what he meant was they've offered up a total of two pair and anyone else that's poorly Where who wrote that? Why? You know one of our sales guys, you know he wrote it or did somebody else wrote He wrote it was from his email and he probably did it really fast. He yeah, he didn't mean, he didn't mean any harm. But I was like, what are you talking about? You wrote they have offered up to pair for anyone? Oh my god. But he meant two pair for anyone who wants it. So I didn't

feel I had to rush. I was go, I'm gonna I'm gonna take a shower and get some lunch and then I'll email them. I was like, yeah, cut me in. So this massive Broadway show, their massive reopening on Broadway, contacts the biggest morning show, one of them in New York, right, it says, you know you have eleven people on the show. The whole point of sending radio people to your show is so that they'll do social media, they'll talk about on the radio. Right, don't you want as many people

to go as possible? At least you want like six pair, five pair. No, Look, it's very nice for them to provide a pair. The theaters aren't huge. I get that, But the wording I was like all excited, like, Hey, we're all gonna go. This is great, fantastic. No, no, you're not going you think that that would get my hopes up? Now I got excited. I was about to say, now you're gonna try and call pull some broad bullshit on him and be like, no, I read that's what

that's what it says. No free dessert. I can't do that for the not to the radio station. Hey, I talked up last week about the button my Calvin Klein button on my jeans, on my cap jeans, and I want to work and I you made a very very poor analogy too well about your floor mats. Yeah, because you're talking about you know, A versus a fucking said Yeah, I get that. I get that. So I did want to give a shout out to someone who wrote, UM, let me see if I could find his his Twitter. So, uh,

I went into um, to work wearing those jeans. I finally put them on, and I said, you know what, I'm gonna wear them. What the hell I'll see if you know, Elvis maybe wants to make a topic out of it. He did not. He said, Brody, you're weird. I didn't want to do a topic out of it. However, Amber Nichols at Nightmarrow M A. R Oh tweeted at me and you and said, I wouldn't ever be able

to wear those gap jeans with the Calvin Climb button again. Heck, I can't even wear my victorious secret underwear with my pink bra. And they're literally the same brand meaning pink, meaning they're they're sub label pink, just separate divisions. I can't do it. That's scary. Jones is neurotic, so uh, Amber out neurotic to me. But did I mention to you about where my my jeans were on the big rack? Did I talk about that? No? You didn't. Were they?

So you know that every dry cleaner, almost every dry cleaner has them. It's that big conveyor belt thing where they hang them in numerical order, so they break them down by tens and then they put yours in like two hundred and eleven would be in the two slot in the first one, right, so they can say they easily find everything. So they pushed the button and it goes around and goes up a little higher, and around and and down. How have you ever ever walked in

to a dry cleaners and your clothing was right there? Never? Never, no, it was. It's always like in the back. So you have to wait for the thing to do a full circular motion. And it's going right here. Okay, So you know they're all numbered, right, So I give the guy and we've all done this, we've all done this. I give the guy my ticket, it has the number on it. He sees it's jeans and what else the give in the pair of jeans? I don't know. Let's just say it was it was a shirt to dry clean Okay,

it was jeans at a shirt. I don't remember what the item was, but let's say it was. So he knows it's jeans and a and a shirt. Okay, as it's coming, I see it coming, I say to him, there it is. Do you think he fucking needs me to tell him where it is? Probably not? He's and the clothing is in numerical order. But for some reason,

we've all done it. You did it, and then you felt foolish for telling him that, right, because uh, he probably gets that all the time and he probably rolls his eye, rolling in his head like, okay, another one of these idiots. Now forgive me. I don't remember what comedian it was, so if you remember that, you want to tweet me, that's fine. But it was last week and it reminded me of the incident at the dry cleaners.

He was talking about going to Chippotle and saying, when we all do this too, we go to Chippotle and we pointed the thing we want, I'll have that of the corn, and you point to it as if the guy doesn't know where the corn is. He knows where the corn is. You're like, I'll have the pork and you point to it. Of the cheese, you point to it. Yeah, pretty much, right, So I I don't next time you going to dry cleaners, don't tell him like, there's my coat, I say, he knows where. He's gonna stop on the

two tens and get you and get it. Even even if he's off by a little, he can out down to ten. They're all labeled, So I just felt like I could see the look he sort of he didn't look at me. He turned away and looked towards the back of the place. That's how he made his face. I know that we used to do that Starbucks when I when I was a manager at Starbucks, I would actually train my staff. You know, they have the counter.

It's like waist high when you go there. So back in the day when I worked at Starbucks, not only did we have the counter where you take the drink order, the register, and the counter where you put your your your your order up, but we used to have a long counter where all the beans were in drawers and you would choose which of the thirty types of beans from around the world you wanted, and you would buy a quarter pound, a half pound, of full pound, and

you would tell us what type of machine you had and how you wanted it ground, a drip, a French press, a percolator, and so it's time for the percolator. So they don't do that anymore. They it's pre bagged, right, you don't you don't get to pick out one of thirty coffees. Right. But if people were stupid, and they often wore, especially back in the early nineties when people didn't understand Starbucks because I worked there when it was

new to New York. I would I would tell people like, there were drawers at your like your thigh level, bend down to get stuff out of the drawers, and make all the faces you want, but when you pop back up, make sure you have a smile on your face. And so I would constantly see my employees bending down, opening drawers, tying your shoelaces and making faces like a motifucker. Okay, let's let's explain the French press again, because you couldn't make like a sour puss face. I think the dry

cleaning guy did the same thing to me. I think he turned around as if he was looking in the back so he could make the face like this fucking guy thinks I can't find his fucking jeans on a conferyr belt that's numbered, so it's so scared. This is where you go, Dude, be careful. He could spit in your well. I don't think you could do anything to them. M not that, because I've seen it. Yeah. Hey, we were talking earlier about the fact that you made a

surprise well we didn't say what you did. But I was doing it appearance the other night and I thought it was really cool. I wanted to point out the slices. I did this on the Big Show. But we give you accolades right now. David Brody not being paid for his appearance at as I've often done before, But you just Brody just shows up to Calandres where we're we're we're because we were giving out jingle ball tickets. We had a nice captive audience. Shout out to Shady Jew

Mobster and his entire family. Shad Jew came out to support. He was wearing his old Brooklyn Boy shirt with the original six color logo with the circle around one yeah. And then Scary said he was going to be there from six to eight on Wednesday. I originally was going to record my Walkers and Torcos podcast at seven o'clock, but I I we bumped it a little bit later. We bumped it to seventh. So you put on some pants and you drove down the road and you come

came to hang out with me. Well, I didn't drive down the road. It's it's fifteen minutes away. But well you did. With the point is you made the effort, whether the effort because I was already out. I was out. I dropped my daughter off somewhere and I was rushing home to do the podcast, and my co host said, you know what, can we back it up until seven thirty? And I said, yeah, not a problem. So then I

thought to myself, go stop popping on Scary. So I walk in and there this place, Calandras, has multiple locations, but the particular one not a sponsor of mine, but I've eaten dinner there many times. They have a full blown bakery set. So it's a lot, it's like a it looks like a strip mall on its own. It's a giant location and they have so you go in and so to the right is a giant bakery that they have prepared foods. On the left is a giant dining room and in the middle is a smaller bar

type room with dinner tables. You can eat in there, and his TVs and a bar. And it's a little more intimate, a little more casual. Rather it's it's closed. And so Scary was hosting this event where you can win jingle ball tickets. So when I walked in, he was at the bar talking to a couple and I walked up next to him and I just stood there and he's a good time. I was. I was shocked that you walked. I turned around and there he makes

a left. He looks to the left and sees me, goes, oh hey, goes back to talking to the people, and it doesn't double take ghost. He's very surprised to see me, so I said, oh, shady jew mobsters here. So when he said I walked up, he's got his back to me. He's eating dinner, and I I slapped him in the back of the head. He got up. I figured he's not going to get upset with me, so he gotta goes, Oh my god, I brought he's here. So we had a nice time, a nice time getting him and his family.

Although I have I have, I have to call somebody out I do. I tell me, tell me how you feel about this scary I met his lovely wife, Meredith, and his little boy, and she says, oh, we've been listening to your show for five years. We love you guys. You know what we listened since you guys started. Oh we're big fans. At very nice. At no point did she say she was a fan of the Brooklyn Boys. But she said she loved the water He Show and she loves which is fine. He's a super fan, shady Juice.

Here is the problem. Here's the problem. So we took pictures with the family, very lovely family. It was a pleasure meeting them. It was no, no, no, no, nothing bad to say about them. And they put the picture up and they tagged me, and his wife commented, so great to meet you guys. And I clicked on her profile and guess what, but she does not follow me on Instagram. Oh no, I'm very hurt. She's maybe a Brooklyn she's maybe a fan of the Big Show, but

now the fan of the Brooklyn Boys. Now, that's exactly what I wanted to point out. So what the people at Calandras didn't know was that I showed up with trunk full of Brooklyn Boys merchandise I have. I had sweatshirts of the pizza slice, you know, the Slice for Life. I've sweatshirts for me, you know, from our items from our merch store. I had had the brand new I had ornaments. I had Christmas ornaments with me. I had

I had Brooklyn Boys beanies. The were the new items, so I left them in my trunk because I'm about to bring them out with me. They're like, wait a second, let me just leave my trunk. Let me see what

kind of crowd this is. And obviously they wanted to win jingle Ball tickets for Z one hundred New York, the radio station that I was representing, and I'm of course, I do my stick and you know whatever we're talking talking got on the m I C and at one point during the ninth there was a bit of a wall and I'm like, this is the time that I'm gonna unleash. I'm gonna go back to my car and unleash the Brooklyn Boys merch. But let's just see. So I said, hey, out there, you know who who here? Who?

He listens to the Brooklyn Boys? Dead silence? Who see Shady? Jew was like yeah, And I'm like, no Brooken Boys podcast fans out there, and and it was again it was a little weird, and I'm like, I heard a couple of you know, usually because I was like, you know, makes a noise. I heard a whoo hoo, no id what whoo hoo? I heard a yeah. I'm like, you know, And then I sat there like, oh, well, when that happened,

did Meredith yell at anything? Okay? In fact, Meredith was into my majority the people who did not say a word. So in my mind, I'm thinking like, Okay, I'm guess I'm not gonna walk over to my car and get the fucking Brooken Boys merch shot because I was about to me like if I would have gotten the response I was anticipating, I was gonna and they don't know this. Nobody knows us until right now. I'm letting the slices know. I was about to just literally, Brody, I had a

ship ton of stuff I was gonna give away. I had one of a kind things that aren't even the merch store, you know, some of the test item stuff that we got. I was ready to blow it all out, and I'm like, I had nobody here. You realize the stuff that you have in your car, I pay for half of it, right, Well, yeah, so you don't get to throw out Alan merchandise at you're app here and do that. Well the larger point here again once again, another larger point moment. Uh yeah, Brodie, Well I didn't

know that, so I don't tell you. Then when I was there for like fifteen minutes. We took pictures and everything. Well, I thought there was gonna be a good time. Into the mic and he goes, oh, I got a special surprise. My co host David Brody from The Brooklyn Boys is here. And we hear the same thing like yeah who and then and and then a shitty jew bobster jumps up like yeah right, so I know is I know his real name now? And I still but I'll say it anyway,

Um did not give away any Brooken Boys merch. That went over like a lead blown. So yeah, maybe in a future appearance where there's a lot of slices, a high concentration of slices, maybe I will whip out the Brooklyn Boys merch that I left in my trunk. It's still there to this day. Yeah, scared. Do you remember a few episodes ago I talked about talk shows and game shows, the people that yell out from the audience what they think you should do this, box five, box five,

like it matters, like right, prices right? They do do that all the time. The audience is screaming. They all yell out prices right, you know, why why don't you win? And come on down and you get to yell out. But it's the people that like they have to count the money three D five Okay, that's fine. They probably tell him to do that. But Jimmy Fallon often plays

games that involve numbers. They do charades, right, we have to like pick a number off like this tower of numbers, and and like you pick number seven, then he'll read seven fish gerades. So Jimmy will always go, I went number shod I pick an audience yells out numbers. I still again. I started figuring out why anyone would care whatnot, Like it doesn't mean anything. They're just numbers, right that you have no idea which ones are good clues. You're

just yelling out numbers, yelling out something random. So he and so he plays a game called lie to Me. There's these giant boxes on like a rack, like it's three on the top, three in the middle. It's like, no, I think there's nine, ten boxes whatever it is, and the you and the select He and the celebrities sit on opposite sides of a table with a wall between them with a cutout so they can only see their faces.

They can't see the other person's table and they pick a box at random, and they open it up and usually some crazy thing in the box, and you have to describe it to the other person or lie and describe something that isn't in the box, and they have to decide if they think you're telling the truth are lying. Taylor Swift was not very good at lying. She wasn't. But that being said, you know Taylor's favorite number is thirteen. Yes, so there is no box thirteen. But here's what she did.

When Jimmy says, I go pick a box, the audience starts yelling numbers. She goes right to box one. She didn't ask anybody's opinion. She wanted box one. So then Jimmy picks his box and he looks back to the audience and they're all telling what box to pick right. Then it's her turn to pick it out the box. What box do you think? She picked two? What number? Just right? So what box? Did she pick? One? One and three? Right box? So she completely ignored the audience.

She wanted box three because thirteen is important to her. I give her major props. She knew what she wanted, she got what she wanted, and she wasn't gonna play the audience game. This is the three people yelling numbers. You can't make everybody happy anyway. It's the first time I've ever seen the celebrity just go fuck it. I want one and three yourself. I don't care what the

audience has to say right now, Look Tailor. You know I'm a big I'm a swifty Legitimately, I'm a big fan of tails person and as a musician, I've had her. I've had her take pictures at my desk at work. I've had to take pictures with my kids a few times. I'm a fan. Bit twist, I go, I've seen him in concert many times. But I got a caller out

on something. So she opens the box, the second box, and there's a joke book, a book that's not real, and it's it's Tales from the Golden Arches, right, and it's a book by Grimace, you know, the purple Purple Monster for McDonald's right. So she's not lying, she's legitimately describing the book. And she says to Jimmy, uh, there's a book here, and it says Tales from the Golden Arches,

which is very specific if you're not good at improv. Obviously, you're reading what's there and there's a fuzzy thing on the cover, and it just says, I don't know, I don't know what this is. Grimace. I don't know what that is. So that he says, you're you're telling the truth, and she is, and he says it's Grimace. She's like, I don't know what. She doesn't know. She says she's a no Grimace because it's not her time. I mean, jen Xers and above and and and boomers know who grimaces.

But by the time millennials came around, they phased out all those characters. You were lucky to know who Ronald McDonald was. Isn't that a little bit part of pop culture? It's not especially the secondary in tertiary characters like Hamburglar, the Hamburglar, Nah, the fucking early Bird. What are those three pom pom fucking things? Guys. Yeah, yeah, no, no, no, they that's the right there. That's a generation of Generation gap. Don't be don't be upset with her. I just would

have thought her life on social media. She would have seen a thrownback video, not a shot. Remember the time I dressed as Frankinberry for Halloween and that would overtake. They thought it was Pinky in the brain. No, no good, Yeah, you stressed as a Rick from Rick and Morty. Well no, that's it. No, people know. The kids knew who that was. I know, they thought you were they, But the older people thought you were Christopher Lloyd from Back to the

Future Albert Einstein. But when I went to the dude. But I when I went to that party on Sunday night, everyone knew who I was because it was a younger demo. You have to play to your demo, and and and unfortunately, I mean the people listening to this podcast, like, how the fund did you not know Grimace? I'm with you, Brodie, Well, how old are you that you're listening right now? If you're if you're thirty years old and under, you're not

really expected to know who Grimace is, you know. But if you're forty and over, you know, the mid thirties are a kind of a gray area. But if you're over forty, you're a gen xer. You as fucking lutely know who the Purple Monster Grimmas is, and the and and and the Hamburgler. You just, um, this is aren't jokes. I'm being real that's that's just life. I mean, I studied this stuff, believe it. I could not believe. I

thought Grimace was global. I knew Grimace is the kind of thing you pay if if I saw that, I'd be like, there's no shot she knows who that fucking purple monster is because they haven't had those commercials were in the eighties and maybe Early Night and maybe this is a stretch. Four or five years ago, during the presidential election, a lot of people were posting videos of Donald Trump from eighties TV commercial where he's in the McDonald's commercial with Grimace. Oh, and I thought, again, you

would have seen him in the commercial with Grimace. Right well, I'm gonna I'm gonna like blow your mind right now down gen Z, which is like twenty five and under. If you show them the clown, they may not know that his name is Ronald McDonald. They might not who that know who that is? Um My kids and your kids, well, your kids are more educated in a But he sits

out on a bench in front of McDonald's. He's on commer I listen, my kids don't watch broadcast telling Ronald McDonald hasn't been part of the McDonald's campaign or commercials or marketing in years let alone. Well, the Ronald McDonald house still exists. But they don't know. They don't know because they they decided like ten years ago that clowns scare people and it's a creepy thing. And they don't have him part of anything. The Ronald McDonald's thing with

his face. You can't find that anywhere for for for years now, for years, he's still sitting on the bench in front of something he's not Maybe time. If you have an old McDonald's that have been there since had a farm, right, if you're old McDonald's that that's been there for like twenty thirty years, they haven't hasn't changed or gone undergone a facelift. Yeah, they they that might be there for nostalgic purposes, but no way, man, No, Look at have you been into McDonald's recently. It looks

like you're you're in like a Chipotle or Starbucks. I I know that they've they've redone it. I No, I don't go into McDonald's right off. Everything is supermodern in their touch screen everything. I think I went into a McDonald's after Yeah, to use the bathroom. Yeah, my daughter needed the bathroom. So we stopped McDonald's. But other than I don't I don't need mcald story. You know, I don't need Mcdonald's've talked about this. They don't have fines

catch up, they have fancy catching fancy. Hey, listen, we have some sound here that I'm pulling up the sound banks pieces. I think we should get to some of that you wanna get today. You're not gonna hit the commercial jingle while I tell you lit place sounds. We'll do that. That will take a quick commercial break. But all right, because I got a lot of stuff today, I'm ready to go. Sound. What do you got? I got? I got three peas? Okay? Well is it really okay?

So you're guilty of it as well. So there's a tragic story, possibly tragic story right now of a very famous Chinese and I say Chinese, I mean she's from China, Chinese tennis player. So she she she called out sexual harassment on a very powerful person in in China. Now, you know, China doesn't always have the same they don't

have the same freedoms we have here. And there's a concern she may have disappeared because she criticized a powerful people so her name is spelled p e n g and her last name is spelled as hu a ai ye. And so you know when you when you design your house, um, according to Chinese symbolism, function to provide forgive me if I'm a little loft, but it's proper energy and proper placement, and you want to have things put in stone areas. This it's it's gotta go look it up anyway. The

woman's name is not pronounced Functui. My bad. I didn't know that. So right, So this is this is now a major newscaster on a major cable news Play the clip it's been nearly three weeks and then that's penge. Oh then I'm sorry, Uh yeah, play pengay one. She says that how it's supposed to be. It's been nearly three weeks, and the mystery is only getting deeper around Pung sway her well being. Pung is that the correct way? Yes,

pung sway? Okay, that's right, all right, now play the clip of the woman who number two is the story, Yeah, the biggest stars in tennis. Adding to mounting outrage against Chinese officials, where is beeng Shui the latest missing Chinese athlete. Whoops, yep, pengway, she clearly fell into the feng shui category. We did again, I know you did, but you're not. So here's what I'm gonna say it again, especially with the name, Well, you're not sure how to pronounce it. The teleprompter should

spell it phonetic you it's ridiculous. In fact, I'll give another example. I don't have the audio three. Well three was just an edited versions. You could hear say it again. Somebody produced a commercial that ran on our morning show for a movie coming out by Lin Manuel Miranda. Oh my god, I heard this. I heard this. This is someone who has been voicing commercials for forty years. Let's get him on the phone right now. When he read

the spot, he said, produced by Lynn Manuel Miranda. Now it's spelled Manuel or Manuel manual, but it's it's You shouldn't assume with names that people that are going to read the copy. But Spanish is usually Manuel. But but even you know, they could have written Manuel M E N W E L L. Because it's not going on a screen anywhere. It's only being read into a microphone, so no one's gonna see it. So spell it purpose purposefully.

Spell it wrong. M A n W E l L. Spell it that way so the person can read it read. I'm only partially blaming the guy who did it, because he should have known better. But I'm blaming the people who gave him the script stopped leaving it up the chance. If the woman's name is punk Shu, I spell it p o n g pong. Don't spell it p e n g. No one cares how teleprompter. I'm not seeing it exactly. We got the Raiders fans, all the Raiders, Okay. I think it was Thursday Night Football or Sunday Night.

It was the pre show. And Drew Brees, retired New Orleans Saints quarterback, used to play for the San Diego Chargers at the beginning of his career. And a little little known fact here for you. The Chargers had the number one draft pick one year and Michael Vick was gonna be the number one pick. They traded the number one pick to Atlanta, who drafted Vic second, and the Chargers, well, I'm sorry they drafted him number one. The Chargers traded down.

They drafted La Dainian Tomlinson, who's a Hall of Fame running back, and in the second round took Drew Brees, who's a Hall of Fame quarterback. They got two Hall of famers in trading from Mike Vick, who will not be going to the Hall of Fame. So it ended up very well for the Sandy Go Chargers. But I'm telling you that because people like Drew Brees didn't play

with the Chargers. Yeah he did. Then he heard his arm and they didn't think he was gonna have a comeback, so they drafted Philip Rivers and traded him to the Saints. But when he played for the Chargers, if you were hibout football, you know anything about football. The Chargers and the formerly Oakland Raiders had a huge divisional rivalry right playing the same division in California, the a f C West. They hated each other. So they're doing a little, I

don't know, two minute piece on. There's a TV show coming out talking about the black Hole. The black Hole was the end zone in Oakland where the Raider fans would wear the armor and uh, the silver paint and look like something out of Mad Max like Warriors, like crazy like and those the craziest fans were there in the black craziest fans. So they're talking about So Drew Brees at this clip is talking about how he handed the bowl off to Ladanian Tomlinson, who scored a touchdown

I think to win the game. But it was in the end zone where the crazy Raiders fans were and he talks about what they did, the fans did to the players, and then listen to the other guy talk about the fans celebrating there in the end zone and the black hole. They don't like that. Hey, gonna start off with maybe topcorn and tey nuts, and then it was beer, and then it was batteries. Black put your helmet on the batteries and ends. That was the old

black hole there. Legendary, Yeah, definitely legendary. Great fan base there. Okay, so if you can make out what he said, a great fan base. Touchdown, Yeah, they threw popcorn at us and beer, but they started throwing batteries at us and we were getting welts on our bodies. They were throwing batteries at us. Yea. And the guy's response was, yeah, great fans. Yeah, they're great fans. Yeah. So we're celebrating there in the end zone and the black hole. They

don't like that. Are you gonna start off, the maybe popcorn and keey nuts, and then it was beer and then it was batteries. Don't like put your helmet on, take off the shiner there. Yeah, definitely, and that ends on. That was the old black hole there. Legend Yeah, definitely is legendary. Great fan base there, great fan base there. Well, he meant it, he meant I can kind of see his point. They're so fanatical about the home team. It's

a great fan base for the home team for the Raiders. Said, well, they're fanatical, they love their team, but they're not great fan You don't throw batteries, you can't. You can't reward them. Well, that's a great fan base right there, because they're so loyal they throw batteries and the other team. Yeah, that's pretty chitty. That's the same thing in Philly. But I heard they did the Eagles. But the teams that are that are you know, I've been told when the fans

down they get rowdy. They were. Actually the survey just came out and was it the Eagles that were the Yeah, the Eagles were amongst the rowdiest fans. The Raiders fans are and they moved to Las Vegas, so a lot of their fans aren't feeling it's could be, could be wrong. Maybe the Eagles, Oh no, I've been to Eagle my brother in laws from South Jersey, so he had season tickets. So we us got Eagles games all the time. And it's it's ugly in a fun way. If you're there

for the Eagles, it's great. If you're if you, God forbid, were like a Cowboys Jersey, You're not getting out of their life. You're getting out of there. Just downright stupid. And now I got finally, I got, I got one more, and I know what this is all about. I see it. I see the letters s D. Yeah, okay, if you didn't see Saturday Night Weekend, Pete Davidson was playing. They were doing a skit about Saturday in a sesame street

because Big Bird got vaccinated and people complained whatever. They were doing a sketch making fun of it, right, and so they had Joe Rogan on because he's involved in the vaccinations, but it was it was Pete Davidson dressed as Joe Rogan. Now, Joe Rogan earlier in the week was saying he has a large enough penis he's able to do the thing we always joke with Scary about and so when you're seeing your own okay, that's well, that's what, that's what, that's what we We have an

episode titled that with the Brooklyn Boys. I know, I know, but I didn't want to give away the joke. But you can, okay. So you know how sesame streets like today's episodes brought to you by the letter M and the number seven. It's all random. They're not really sponsors. But Scary would be like M M, and I'd have to hit the jingle on him because he'd be mentioned with sponsors. So so Pete Davidson as Joe Rogan says

the episode sponsor go ahead. Today's two sponsors of the letters S and D as an I can s my own d it's so of course I put that up on Instagram and so many people said they ripped you guys off, as if we had invented that phrase, right, but everybody else was. I got a lot of d ms, and thank you all for for pointing that out, and as your own d M, I didn't see. I still didn't see it. Did you get you? And I still don't see the episode. I can't wait, I said, did you get d MS or did you get s your

own d M, that's my own d MS. I have to repeat the joking up attentions and scary. Wow, you don't even give me a chance to breathe with that button. Yes, sorry, you know, time is money. Money's time. Hey, it's time and time is money. I I with the mind on the money and my money on my mind. Um, you know, let's see here, I had something that I wanted to all up for you, but I want to want to pull up by the way I want. I'd like to

point something out. Okay, you guys have all made fun of and I mean I see you guys, I mean the slices as well. You've all made fun of me about my six dollar home set up equipment. Okay, the first part you've you've increased it for a couple of millions,

every millions of dollars equipment. Here, I will have you all know, have us know that it's a very affordable piece of equipment that if you're if radio is your career and you're really serious about it, and this is your craft and you want to go further, and you you you've built up a little bit. My point is producer Sam and best desist Andrew is sistant Andrew. Yes, they both bought what I have in my house, the road Caster Pro. So suck it, David Brodie, you keep

saying I spent all this money in this equipment. Now you have other people that have done the same thing that I added onto it like you have. You've got special mounts, special microphones, special The point is the centerpiece of this production. The production workhorse is the road Caster Pro, which now I have turned other people onto. Obviously, this is not a boogie by if producer Sam and Andrew are are buying it. So I rest my case. I don't believe that you have the same thing I've seen

you set up. No, it's not just that thing. You know, you've surrounded with more equipment. You know you have a UM the Brooklyn Boys Slices. It's a private Facebook group on on you know you and I are not members of it. Correct. However, if you joined some Facebook groups, like if you join a swap site you know, like you like, Let's say you want to be in UM Let's say Springfield, Ohio as a Facebook group. When you go to apply for it, it may say please answer

these three questions. Do you agree you won't try to sell anything, you won't be offensive? You right, yes? Do you live in Springfield, Ohio? You're right yes? And um, you know what is the name of the statue in the park because they want to prove that you're from the town. That you could google it, but they ask you questions to make sure you're a legitimate Springfield, Ohio person. I joined the Mets group and it said who is your favorite player? Um, what's your favorite memory of going

to UH baseball game to see the Mets? And who's their all time home run leader? Whatever? It was questions to prove your Mets fan. Do you know what the question is to get admission to the Brooklyn Boys fan page? What what is Brodie's drink of choice? We'll diet coke no ice, of course. And you have to say it in one word, that's not that's not so I love you know, but like I feel like that's that's really being exclusive. I'm sure, Well, yeah, that's really exclusive. Well

that just means shady Jobop's wife can't get in the club. Right. If you want to be part of the brook and Boys club, you should make it a little easier than that. I'm sure they let people who write die coke noise in three words get in. I'm no, but I'm saying they just changed the question altogether. Something we want to want to ask. No, No, that I think these are two. These are very in the room. I'm sure they. Yeah. I think that's a fun question. It is fun. No,

it's good. I just I feel that maybe you should just if you want to get more people into the group, just make it a little bit a broader of a question. I think if you're joining a fan club of a podcast, you've got a pretty good idea. What my favorite drink is? I mean we talked about it from episode one I think or two. I mean we talked about it ever we talk about so you know, alright, that's pretty fun. Last episode I talked about renting the carpet cleaner. What

two episodes ago? And did you get the Regina steamer? I got the extra hour because of daylight saving steamer makes carpets cleaner. Well, let's get to cleaner. So Andrew a benoint oh five to one b E N O. I T could be ben walk could be annoying, depends on well the balls. Okay, so he said in a tweet thank you for another quality episode of The Brooklyn Boys.

A little tip for about home Depot rentals. If you do a four hour rental three and a half hours before they close, you can keep the rental overnight and return it at nine a m. The next day nine and a half hours free. It sounds like you're kind of deal. That's my kind of deal. I like that a lot um. I do have a story of my my return trip to home Depot that I want to share with you, but I want to make sure that you don't have anything else you want to get to

before I tell you. Know. I'm good. I'm good for today because I have the world is caving and I got seventeen thousand calls coming in. I've got I'm putting everything on silent. I like the new focus feature on the iPhone in the in the latest upgrade of the I the iOS, you could you have focused where you can just put the focus button on and you could have certain apps and things come through and other things go on mute or go fund yourself. Scary is focusing

on himself. If you know what I'm saying, go focus yourself, Go focus yourself. You you're gonna yeah, so anyway, so yeah, so I put this, I put the focus thing on right now because we gotta finish this off here and uh yes, so so go right ahead, David Brodie, all right,

So let me tell what happened at Home Depot. So you know, I rented the car machine a couple of weeks ago and it didn't dry properly, and so I got a little stink, a little mildew, moldy smell, a little yeah, yes, And I used the armenhammer baking powder whatever not that it's carpet cleaner. You you sprinkle it down and I vacuum it up, and it didn't help. It smelled like Armen hammer powdery smell and mildew didn't It didn't work for me. I don't know if it

works other people, but didn't work. So I go back to Home Depot uh Saturday at one o'clock to rent it again. Now it's a twenty four rental. Now I know. On Sunday at one o'clock, what am I doing? Well, let's kick off to fan football and it's I play fantasy football. So I can't leave the house until I

make sure that everyone's not injured. That I get all the advice from the TV shows, and I double check, and I get all the matchups to the last minute, because you know, if a defensive player might be out, you want to make some switches whatever. So I know I'm not going to be at home Depot Sunday at one o'clock. So when I rented, I say, look, I don't I'm not going to be back here tomorrow until

two o'clock. Do I have to wait until two o'clock today in the parking lot to rent this or can I rent it today and you guys will just forgive me for the hour. So this guy Jim, who works there, older gentleman, the guy who's ringing me up. The woman I'm the woman is bringing me up has orange hair, but she's got black roots and like just orange tips like the Halloween. She says, well, Jim tells him the story. He goes, don't worry about it's an hour. It's not

a big deal. She says, oh, because you know when you rent the truck, they pro rated if you rent the truck for four hours and you're over an hour, they charge of the of the four hour charge. And I don't worry about it. I'll be here worry about. Nobody cares. It's fine, it's fine. I already see a problem. Yeah, that motherfucker's not gonna be there when you show up with it. I rent and again, well and again. It's

fifty dollar deposit to rent the machine. The machine is thirty seven dollars for twenty four hours, and when you return it, you get back thirteen dollars. That's how it works. Ye. So I rent the machine and I have two small fans in my basement and they they rent a blower machine, a giant blower with a fan and it goes and it blows the floor dry, but they don't have it on Saturday, went and there like shit. So I rent

the machine because that's my time to do it. And I vacuum the carpeting downstairs in the den and the upstairs level where the kid's rooms are, because I also did that. It smelled a little bit. I do both levels. I go back the next day and I put my little fans on the floor and I move them around and I wrote that they're like, they're there. They're the ones that turn and I put them out and they're

drawing the floor. The oscillating ones right. Well, the next morning I see, I see that the floor is still it's still moist. It hasn't started smelling it, but it's not drawing as fast as i'd like. I bring the machine back and uh uh. Glenn is working behind the counter at the return desk where you rent the machines from, and uh, Glenn. I bring the machine back and I say, hey,

how much is the blower machine? Now? The machines are on a rack off to the side, and the up machines are on the floor because they have wheels, so you line them up and you put them under the first shelf, and on the first shelf, on top of each one of the three machines, it says thirty seven dollars carpet cleaning machine, thirty seven dollars carp clean machine, thirty seven dollars carp clean machine. Above the left one is the blower, and above the blower is spray cleaner.

And the prices on the shelf above the blower are for the cleaning products, not for the blower. So I said, I said, Greg, hey, how much is the blower? He walks around the counter and over to the rack and he says thirty seven dollars, and I said, um, the blower is just a blower, it's not like a big machine. And there's no sign there. Yeah, the science has thirty seven dollars, I said, Greg, I don't wanna be difficult, but that sign is for the steamer. Oh, it's for

both of them. Can you check now it's I'm sure of it. Well, by the way, did you really quickly google the the actual retail price this? Well, I didn't do that yet, because I could have opened up my phone and done it, and so I said, I would have been right there. I said, Greg, I understand you're sure that it's the same price, but you're you're the guy who just went around the counter to look at the sign because you weren't sure, right, But now you're sure because you want to look at a sign that

isn't there, and now you're sure. Can you look it up? That's how much it is? I said, Well, I'm not gonna rent it at thirty seven dollars. Why do you run into the rudest people, the rude he was being cocky. Well, that's what I'm saying, that's that's equivalent of rude in this case. So he I give him my name, and he looks me up. He goes, I, you owe me three dollars and fifty six cents for the steamer. What I'm supposed to get back thirteen dollars? Now, that's what

it says. It says. It says here that it's forty three dollars for the rental and UH and the overage and everything, and all those three dollars for the six cents, I go overadge it's thirty seven dollars plus tax I get back like eleven dollars and change. I did it last week. He said, I'll print out the receipts. You can see it. I said, I don't need you to print out the receipt I rented it last weekend. It's thirty seven dollars plus tacks. I get back eleven dollars.

So he says, I'm gonna print it out so I can explain it to you. I I don't need you to explain it to me. I said, you're you're overcharging me. So that he prints through. Seattle goes, yeah, you're late. I said, I was here yesterday. Yes, I knew it. I knew it, and I was told by Jim. Now Jim's there, by the way. Jim's uh at a at a register like four registers down, A couple of registers down. I said, Jim was here, and so was the girl. The girl with the orange hair is standing at the

next register. I said, this young lady was here. She rang me up. They both said, don't worry about the overage. He said, well, but you're late. That's what the price is. I said, Greg, I'm not paying the overage. They told me I could come in two o'clock. It's two o'clock. He goes, all right, I'm gonna get Jim to explain it to you. Greg, I don't need Jim to explain it to me. Jim told me I could have it,

not a problem, no overage. By the way, he was trying to fuck you this guy, because he he was like, you know, what fun does this motherfucker. I'm gonna charge him every penny I possibly can, right, So so he so he calls Jim over and he says, um, Jim, this guy is claiming it doesn't matter that he's an hour late and we have to charge him the ext hour, and he doesn't want to pay the extra hour. And I'm trying to explain it to him. So I printed

out the receipt. You could explain it to im. He tells me, I don't need to explain it to him, but he wants to explain to him. So can you explain to him? He has to pay the extra hour because I've tried and he's not accepting my response. I don't know what to do. I'm sorry, sir, but I don't know how to help you. So Jim sees me and he says, calm down, Greg. I told him he could be late. He's absolutely right. And Greg's he's fuck

because because he was like a trauma queen. He was very like he was getting all the Jim just like Jim just looked at me went because Jim's like an old guy's like walk slowly, doesn't care. He's looked at Calm down, Greg, just calm down. I told him right now. Greg doesn't want to look at me. Greg doesn't want to turn his head. He's not so so I said, hey, Jim, quick question for you. How much is the blower to rent? And Jim goes it's twenty bucks. Oh, for some reason,

I thought it was thirty seven. I'll take the blower too, bad. Go fund yourself and by the way, blow me while you're at an asshole. Yeah. So Greg, calm down, Greg calm refund my money, and I said, you know what, take my refund, put it towards the twenty dollars for the blower, and I took the blower. He got his just desserts. Oh man, his face, he would not turn to look, rather than turn to me and say I'm really sorry. No, you know, because God forbid, he should

eat crow. No he ain't crow. No, but he just didn't know. He didn't apologize. No, he didn't. He didn't say anything, He didn't eat anything. Sorry, So then should he could see a look on his face. So Jim goes, I'll ring up over here, David. So I went to Jim's register and Jim rung me up. So when as I'm leaving, I walked up to Greg, who wasn't with a customer. Said Hey, Greg, I'm not looking to make your day difficult. I said, you see, I'm sure you're

a good guy. But in the future, when someone asked you for a price, you should actually look it up. And when they tell you somebody else said something, you should just go ask them that's all. It would have been much. I said, So I have a lovely day, have a nice day. He is the guy. Yeah, see you next Tuesday. Like it look like it was wrong. Yeah, well you know what he you made your bet, now you lie in it. Yeah, man, he lied, he lied, He's I'm sure. Can you believe that? He was sure?
