Speaker 1

Tell me why I need life insurance. See, you're not one to think long term. No, I'm not. I'm a short term guy. When you start thinking about your life, your family, your commitments, I have to worry about, like what's going to happen if I'm not around? And so I started doing research. Did you know seventy people say they need life insurance but only actually have coverage the way, where's the rest of the like they procrastinate? That would be me. I'm in the minority. Then I'm a procrastinator.

Here's the good thing about procrastinating. If you didn't get life insurance, now is a better time to get life insurance. There's a company called Policy Genius that makes it a lot easier to figure out what you're doing and where to buy your life insurance from. We were educated about this, We were talking to our friends about it, and now they've joined our podcast, so we're actually joining forces with these guys. So I want to learn more about it

because I really think I'm gonna go genius. Shout out to Policy Genius for trusting us as sponsoring The Brooken Boys. Learned that they helped out for million people shop for their insurance and uh, twenty billion dollars in coverage, is that right? Yeah, So if you go to policy genius dot com you can easily compare coverage. Now you can also compare disability insurance, renters insurance, health insurance. They're portal at policy genius dot com. We'll allow you to do that.

Sounds good. Do like I'm about to do. Go to policy genius dot com. If you've been putting it off because it's too confusing, like I thought it was before this conversation, Now the time to do it because it's the easy way at policy genius dot com. Plus, you find the best value. There's no sales pressure here, there's zero. There's nobody like trying to sell you anything. You just go and you look and you see your decide. But most of all, but here's the here's what we need

you guys to do. Now. If you go and do that, we hope you do. There's a little questionnaire at the end, and it's gonna ask you where you hurt it. Make sure you check that you you heard it on the Brooklyn Boys. When it's this easy to compare life insurance, why put it off Policy genius dot com. Hey, this is Jim found here listening to the Brooklyn Boys Start Up, Start Up, Brooklyn Boy start Up Data. They're making noise data up episode forty four. It's a palindrome, right, yeah, yeah,

I think about that for a second. By the way, I didn't have Jimmy Falon say with Brode and Scary that was he was in a hurry, so I just made it short. Yeah, but we got a really good one. But next week I can't wait. Yeah, we didn't have it produced. Listen this time in the podcast. Next week, well, just listen to forty five. That's all. By the way, that's episode Yeah, but that that's not a palindrome. No. A palindrome is a number that reads the same forwards

and backwards. I have a really so the number four five four in the news a lot these days, but for all situation references the podcast. Yeah, yeah, four four is a pound drum as well, because it's the same number twice. It's the same forward and backwards. Race car. Who's a race car? Race cars? Pound drome, race car, race car. The word race cars a pound rome R A C E C A R and it's spelled the same forward and backwards. That's great, Thanks, bub I like that.

By the way, bub Pound Rome bub. So, how are you feeling, Brodie feeling? First? You feeling summer? I'm feeling something. I'm feeling seven Up. That was the old commercial. I'm feeling seven Up. I bought a bottle of seven up. It's not a sponsor, not a sponsor on Get Paid. I bought a bottle of seven Up. It was on sale, and I was like, oh, I haven't had seven Up in a while. I really like seven up, said now,

how does seven okay? I've never been to the Lemon into the Lemon, or the lime or the Lineman those it was those Lineman commercials. It's like lemon and lime together a Lineman. I've never been into Sprite versus seven Up. But what is the difference between seven Up and Sprite in taste? It's like Pepsi and coke Ki. It's just it's different. Is it better? Well, it's like one tomato

sauce or another. It's just it's slightly different. But seven Up comes from the Pepsi family, right, but they used to be seven Up is now owned by Sprite, is owned by Coke Sprides owned by Coke Pepsi. I think Pepsi and seven up now they bought. Yeah, well so yeah, but that that's very you know, that's odd for you, Brodie. You know you support the Coca cold. That's not true.

I support what's on sale. Tell you that if I if I go, if I go to the supermarket and my diapepsi is five for five, I get the diopepsi. If the AMW cream soda is five for five, I get it. Dr Brown's black Cherry cream soda. You know, five five, I get it. But when it's three ft five, they can shove it up their ass. I'm not paying three for five. You've ever noticed that when you're, you know, walking up and down the aisle of a grocery store. In the soda aisle, they a lot of them. They

just don't carry Seltzer club soda. I don't know why. That's old man drink. You know it's not it's it's healthy man. No, it's not. It's like it's coming back in a big way. It's not coming back in a big way. You need it as a mixer for your for your liquor. So nobody like I'm gonna have. I get so excited and all of a sudden, next to the diet ginger rail. There's nothing. The only person I know that says I'm gonna have a glass of seltzer drinking. I love so and and you're part of the country.

It might be known as soda water, but soda water, seltzer club soda pretty much the same thing. One of them. Soda has the point. The point is it's clear, and it's got no calories and it's healthy. So does diet sprite no calories. A lot of places discriminate that. I don't know. Why is it because it's cheaper? You know what it reminds me of. I'll tell you two things.

One that's gonna no one's gonna get this. But one of them is when you were sick as a kid, that's not you had alka seltzer, right, I love that stomachla Seltzer. I can't drink gingerill. So I used to put the little tablet in the water and pop fizz or what a relief. It is one of the greatest commercials of all time. But it tasted like awfulness. It tasted like soda with no syrup. It was just like but if you go to the if you go to a restaurant. You get like a diet coke and it

doesn't have enough syrup in it. It's to seltzery. You send it back. Why would I want all seltzery. It's like no diet coke. I've become accustomed to it. It's the only way I could drinks. I think you can diet coke, no coke, no. I I don't know, man, I don't know. I just out And you're paying for fart water. That's really what it ishtag fart water. What seltzer? You're fart in the tub, that's what you're getting. You're getting bubbly water. Not paying for that. Water should be free.

I gotta pay the same price for seltzer as I did for soda. That's why I think it's a conspiracy, because I think it costs less to make, and they forced to They're forced to charge you less, and they don't want you paying less. They want you to pay a premium. I want to syrup in the saccarin and the fructose and the all the chemicals and to kill me. I want all of that for the dogs. Fifty three sugars. Yeah, if it's I'm paying a dollar, I want crap in my water. I don't want just bubbly water. I want

something in it, ingredients, farts and water. That's it carbonation. What are you paying for the soda stream and do that? It's a conspiracy. Stream can do that at home. You don't need to buy Seltzer my stream. Millie still has the glass bottles from the Seltzer. That was the reference. I was gonna make Seltzer man. Back in the day, there were those old school Seltzer bottles. You might have seen them. They're big, like back in the day. They

weren't old school. They would just would Seltzer bottles right, but they were blue and they were green. They were beautiful. They made a glass and they had like a spray bottle on the top like a hose like and you would you would pull, you would pull on right and they would and when you would leave the you would leave the empty bottles outside, and then the Seltzer man would come and he would refill you and you would get a dozen new bottles on them. He had like

a pickup truck. It was like a wooden flatbed truck, and it was all like milk crates of so eltzo bottle crates of Seltzer bottles and he would bring that. Like when you like offices get water jugs delivered. I mean, what right, right? But this is like before the internet. That looks carbonated water. When people used to get milk delivered in jugs and jars. That's what I was. I was gonna say the same thing. The Seltzerman's coming, the Seltzerman and the milkman. For a little while, my dad

would get my dad would make egg creams. Why can't we go back to the egg creams. You know what egg cream is. There's no egg in no cream, but a seltzer in syrup. Right, but but combinated chuck, Those were the days, man, Why can't we bring those backs my day we had coming to the house. I mean, it's there's nothing more pure than water. That's carbonated water,

not far water. Did you have the scissor man that used to come by scissorman, Yeah, like we had the ice cream man, we had the Seltzer man, the knife shopping, the knife sharpener. A guy tells you he's a scissor man. Run like hell. Guy would come around and he would actually he would sharpen like things that needs to be sharping, garden tools, or kitchens or something you're gonna stab someone

with neighborhood. And he always had like a lab coat with blood on it, Like I always thought like like because it would spray like people to give them dirty knives sometimes. Yeah, I always felt like he had like nine fingers. Yes, artifacts of a bygone era. No, I've still seen Kni've seen shopping trucks. How do you have a business, How do you sustain yourself? Because there are people like I have a nice set of kitchen knives, and they come around and they sharpen, they sharpen your knife. Well,

here's the thing. I know there are places that do that, but i've there is in my in in the general vicinity of where I live in New Jersey, there's a truck that goes around and it's a knife shop. What is it? No, it's a it's an old style truck that could be an ice cream truck again, but that is a forgotten art of driving a truck. Basically like a wheel that goes spins and you put the knife against it at an angle and it shopping is the knife.

But what's the thing you stick in the whole? You know, what isn't it something I guess there's no other way to sharpen your tools. Give out our email, you know what, tweet at Scary Jones. If you're a nie shopper, or there's a guy in a truck they don't have an ax chord in their car to hear this podcast. If not, if you're a knife shoppinger. And by the way, I don't mean to insinuate that if you're a woman, you're not a nifeving around your knife sharpening truck. Why don't you?

But if we have seen one on the street, like what, how's a knife shoppening truck? You know what this? They exist all right? Well, the Brooklyn Boys Podcast at gmail dot com. That's our email dress the Brooklyn Boys Podcast at gmail dot Curry reads that make sure you address everything that Brodian scary, scary Brodie. I had a couple of scary Brodies in there. And Brodie and Scaries I hadn't both both alive. I've gotten some really good stuff

on Instagram, like I didn't screenshot. Well, first of all, people's screenshotting. So we set the table, we lay at the menu. You want to lay out this the menu? Yeah, So here's what I was on what's today's specials. We've got unused jokes. That's that we got those. It's a short week, but we got a couple of those. I got a couple of good emails people that emailed me at Brodie, Elvis durand dot com. Keep the the keep in mind, I only checked that like every couple of weeks.

I don't feel like I didn't. One that gets checked every day is the Brooklyn Boys podcast at Gmail. That's what That's what we check a lot. I've got a medium rant about a movie theater related thing, and I've got an uber rant, but not about uber. I've got a big rant, but about a movie theater. They got movie related. I may split them up between two podcasts. I know I still owe the direct TV rant, right,

I didn't do that one yet. I still have that one, and I feel like, oh and I got a I got an airline one unrelated to the airline rants I've been doing. I have. I have to bitch about United Airlines because when I tell you this, you tell me how the hell this happens. I'm gonna tell you, now go for it. I'll tell you now go ahead. Let it out, Brodie, Now let it out let it out like carbonation in a Seltzer part water fart water felt. Hold on, I'm I'm actually pressing. I'm I'm pressing your

your your nozzle and I'm letting it. Don't I'm pressing your Admittedly, you are not very good at geography right now, I'm okay. Now, I would imagine Jimmy kim By the way, if you have a chance, go on look an uh Jimmy Kimmel alive the YouTube page if you didn't see it happen on his episode last week, Jimmy Kimmel did a street bit. Now I know they probably interview a thousand people and they only show the dumb ones. But they had like ten people on. They showed him a

flat map of the world. Right, the earth isn't flat, but it's a flattened map. Yeah, but all the country silhouetted, nothing written on them. And they asked people on the street, name a country anywhere on the map, just name a country. Half of them pointed to the continent of Africa and saith Africa. It just a little reminder, Africa not a country. Not no, it's not a country. It's a that is a continent, right, nobody else could figure out they couldn't

find a country. One person pointed to although if they would have pointed to Australia instead, Australia, that is a county. It is the only kind of county country. Yes, but Africa, Africa not a country, right, Okay, So they pointed to Asia, they pointed to Russia. They said, where's America? And they pointed Russia, which, by the way, if you follow the news lately, insert your own joke there. But this is what really happened on Jimmy Kimmel. Okay, so they could.

They're terrible at geography, so it's hilarious and painful. And a couple of them are college graduates. Like, I'm so embarrassed they couldn't find America on a map. Look, if you look at America the map of America and the states are silhouetted, and you can't name them all. I get it. You should be able to. But if you can't, I can name about I could name all of them. But anyway, if you can't name all the capitals, you should, but I get it. But if you can't find America

on a map, like if you can't find let's say Nebraska. Right, you're like, I don't remember which ones Nebraska, which ones? Olmaha? I mean, not which one Ohoma? Oklahoma? I can't remember which Oklahoma? Which ones? You know? I get it, right, they're all in the Midwest and you don't know the Midway. I get it. Or or if you're looking at the northeast and you're like, which one is Vermont, which ones New Hampshire? I get it. But if you can't find

America on a map, you got a problem. The people that he interviewed on the street, I think work for American airlines. Okay, my my daughter, one of them just is in Costa Rica right now, which, by the way,

most people probably couldn't find Costa Rica on the map. However, when we put her on the flight, they have a policy you pay twenty five dollars a bag for American flights and free baggage on international flights, figuring the tickets probably more expensive, right right, Okay, they charged her and me because I paid for it dollars for for one bag to check a bag to find a Costa Rica, because they told me that it's not considered an international flight.

What the fund is that? Since what is Costa Rica part of America. Costa Rica is not an internet should wait Latin America. Don't tweet me telling me it's got the word America in it. No, Well, maybe in their mind, international means leaving the continent of North America, because technically that's part of the continent of North America. Is it not that you leave in the country in their world, I'm not listen Devil's advocate. I don't. I don't agree

with them because it's not part of America. It's not part of the states. You should have had them name the fifty states and say is Costa Rica one of them? No? Giving my fucking money back, That's what you should have told them. I'm not trying to make excuses. I'm trying to understand their rationale. Okay, so before I'm just trying to understand where they're coming. Here's what I'm gonna tell you. My wife booked the flight, my wife took it to

the airport. My wife gave me specific instructions. Don't make a scene, don't call up and complain about the off the fight. Do you see that. You've seen the videos on TV, on the news, You've seen those viral videos why would you throw my daughter off the flight? What are you talking about? Well, because if you if you're gonna put up a stink and they're like, you know what, I'm not gonna do it while she's on the plane. Before they take off. I'm gonna run to the airport

and and make a shape. Might be a marked woman. I don't know that. They might put some notes in your file and then when she gets on the flight to like keep an eye point. I'm adding them to the list a few American airlines twenty five dollars for a non international flight to Costa Rica? Did you confuse Costa Rica? Puerto Rico? Puerto Rico not an international flight? Part of United States, Commonwealth of the United States, not an international Costa Rica to my knowledge, we haven't conquered

them yet. Not part of America. But what about them? By the way, don't be one of these people that says, you know, the name of all countries not America, declude state. Fuck you too, what about it's America the beautiful I get it. I know what the official name is. My name is David Brody. An calls me Brody. You know America is a nickname. We get it. What about when they say you could fly anywhere in the United States, what they say, you can't fly to Hawaii. Hawaii is

part of the United States. Okay, but that's a five hours and five and a half they say continentally United States. And I understand why because it's like it's like saying you can have anything here for free except the flame and young. I get that, Like if you get in a shopping spree, they go, oh, you can go anything, and you're wanting a shopping spree. You just can't have the ten thousand dollar television. You have to make rules. I get that. You can't fly Awa, Well, that's their rule.

Their rule is Costa Rica. That's not a rule. You can't change the geography of Costa Rica. You can't do that. You can't decide, well, we're gonna consider that it's not far enough. Did you did you get your money back? And did you You heard me? My wife won't let me. What are you going to But I know, I know you're not gonna listen to your wife. Was the last time you listen to what she had to say? Uh, the night before we got married exactly. Yeah, that's not

going well for me. By the way. So there you go. I know, after the flight's over, you're gonna try and recoup that cash. You know what are you trying a kid? I may? I may? Are you gonna leave money on the table? No, I'm not leave him. I gotta figure up. Now, come on, man, I can't a minute trying to pull everybody's eyes technically, technically, my wife said, you're going on that definitely. My wife said, don't call them and ask for a refight, and you're gonna be like, okay, I'll

email them that. Hold on, we didn't say I couldn't DM them and ask for a credit. You're gonna slide into their d I may slide to the d M. S oh can I okay? By the way, what airline do you know? Are you happy with that? Blue Love Jet? Blue Love? Like last week was the terret chip thing. No, that's that's the chip that was United United United fine, but they needed better entertainment system. God, as you fly on these airlines, you always have complaints about them. But

I will says free bagged international flight. This is why the airline suck. You can't do that, but DA haven monopoly on that. That's like saying dollars. SODA's a refills but not the sprite why not? Nope, don't change rules. Fuck United Airlines, American I'm sorry, un fun United Airlines. Fuck American Airlines, and it's okay. Fuck the United States of American Airlines. For those people that want to tell yeah, no, you know what I'm piste off. All right, Well you

know you're gonna get your money back. Five dollars, twenty five bucks, all right, twenty five dollars. I I tell you, twenty five dollars is more than halfway to get the new Omaha Steaks deal. That's all I'm saying. Keyword Brooklyn Boys a commercial commercial that I'm saying, it's almost steaks from. We can't charge them. We can't. It's not a commercial. It didn't schedule. There was none this week though, but I do too. Uh, you want to get it. First

of all, don't forgett riding into d MS. I got to talk about that with another freaking company that doesn't understand about sliding in. You started, ah, you started this thing this morning because you you saw this article that our beloved boardwalks of Jersey Shore and Coney Island are robbing people blind Okay, so I don't have the story. If you know what, everybody has been to a boardwalk and some I guess, unless you're landing, play carnival games

and this stuff. So there's like fucking squirt the water in the clowns mouth and the balloon, or get the ping pong and the goldfish bowl or what was your favorite? I like throwing um the baseballs at hands to knock them down. I was a fan of the basketball game. It was the only form of basketball I was ever decent at it is getting the basketball and the thing. But they used to bend the goddamn rims. And this story you brought to me today was actually I'll tell

you the story in a second. I will say that I've won the knocking the milk cans game down, and I've one at um. I want to say, I'm gonna say, uh, what about score? Then sesame place testime place in h in Pennsylvania. I won the milk can game. I got the softball to bound straight up and then into the hall. Really, yeah, have you I want a giant eagle that my wife throughout when it got dusty. I was good at the horse races where you have what position. Did you come

in exactly? No, you you know, he had to roll the roll and if it gets into three, the horse moves ahead three and if and then you get the five and it moves ahead five paces. Yeah, I was I love that one. You know there's scams and horse race scam. How's that? Well, you know what you played three card. Let's get to the gaming commission and I'll tell what the scam is. So the Gaming Commission what goes around in every state to make sure that there's fairness in the games at at the fairs and and

at the boardwalk. And he placed as a midway they called midways, which, by the way, we will be or I will be at the Iowa ninth to the eleventh where I'll be playing some of these games. I hope the State Commission of Iowa went around to check how effective and how fair those games. Well, you got, you got. You can't win those games. You have grease all of your fingers and all the fried foods. And so they

went around New Jersey Shore. The article, I mean, this is every town USA that has one of these, but this is New Jersey Shore. They found twelve establishments on the Jersey Shore in different towns, two different towns in particular, where the games weren't winnable, where they were rigged. Like you don't say, like the crane game Skill Crane one

of my favorites. Someone told me they put vasiline on the tips of those of the freaking No, this would come off on the stuffed animals unless you're picking up like boxes and stuff. Here's not gonna tape about the crane game. First of all, if you own a crane game and you make your livelihood off the crane game and you put them in pizza places and you put them in different I apologize. Okay, don't play the crane game. What's wrong with the crane game? You'll never win the

radio for a dollar. You're never gonna win the giant stuffed animal. Now look you're gonna tweet me go I want it once. The odds are astronomical. Why what did they take that five bucks and buy your kid is stuffed animal? What is the Gaming Commission saying they're doing the rig these kids, they said a lot of them don't have enough pressure in the crane to grip, or the items are too heavy for the crane to possibly pick up well. And you ever noticed, like it almost

makes the band and oh it falls. They find stuff that's way to the exact weight, right weight that it falls all the time before it gets in the hall all the time. You're not gonna win the crane game. People get a job, go buy a stuffed fish. And by the way, why would I even want that after I wanted to see. To me, it's just wants what's in there? You're not gonna get all if I get if I get the dollar bill, I'll go for a hunter all bill. I'm gonna win the hunter. I'll know

you're not. You're not gonna win a hundred all the bill. That's the game. That's why the casinos are so big. That's why you're playing the game. And some guy owns that machine. So what else did what were their findings they had the skill Crane game. They found well, I

can tell you they found something. You had to like do three things to win, but the third thing wasn't possible, and there was one way you had to do four things with the only three chances to win, Like you had to answer like there was there wasn't enough, Like you had to like, uh, inflate things, but you couldn't even it was impossible to have enough time to inflate it. And then the old school basketball games with the real rims.

The rims were they were so high up and you were so far away that you couldn't tell the angle you were looking at it that the rims were actually bent in an oval and the actual basketball didn't fit into the rim. It wouldn't go in because it was and the way you were looking at it was like, well, no, it goes in, but its exactly so you have to get it like spot By, and you can't. So that's what the guy goes. Look, it goes right in. It's not a circle, it's an oval. Terrible. Well, let me

see if I can find the story here. I get the game. I would love to know what other things are being Please expose these vision of consumer affairs. Let's see multiple towns violated. It's that time of season on crane machines. Were prizes too heavy or packed too tightly, so they like put like a hundred toys in there, like yeah, but then the crane take it in because there's so many toys and they're all shoved in there. Yeah. Or games where it's impossible to win the top prize

in the number of a lot of chances. Terrible don't play the crane hashtag don't play the Crane game back on the Crane game. Yeah, alright, pretenders, pretty much. I think it's time for some email mail talks like welcome, you've got mail, and thank you so much for emailing us at the Broken Boys Podcast at UH at gmail dot com.

However, he is, uh, there's a lot in common with me in terms of customer service. He says, I always argue with companies and bargain like you do. I took your advice today with the expression, here's what you're gonna do. Optimum started charging me for DVR one year into the two year promotion of free

DVR service. I let them have it. I said, here's what you're gonna do, and it worked. They took off the charges. Now you that's but by telling them what they're gonna do, they're gonna actually their preprogrammed to do it. Well. I have a coming up in my rant. I I used the no, here's what you got. I said, here's what you should do? Uh, and that worked as well. We'll get to that. I have one more email here from Lisa see housing. I'm assuming that's how you pronounced

the name the housing. Either that or it's see Who's okay, Lisa wrote to me, and should I just want to say thank you. I just recently started listening to your podcast. I have been a fan of the Big Show for a long time. I live in St. Louis, and I have to listen to the replays in my heart because you're no longer in St. Louis, which I explained to her in case you don't know, and I don't know

how you don't know by now. If you listen to the Elvis Durrand Morning Show and you can't get the radio signal either or not your market anymore, you're somewhere in the country that doesn't have it live, and you're like, oh, listen to replace channel or demand channel because they can't. Let's do it live. Yes you can. All eighty of our affiliates have their own I Heart channel that broadcast to show live or in your time zone delayed in

their own market under their file under their city. So go to Elvis, durand dot com and is it placed on the top of the things is listen to Elvis or find Elvis and go to there and you'll see wanted to go to New York City, go to listen to us. No, here's the thing. If you live in California, you can't listen to See A hundred five. It's three hours later. So find a radio station that's in your time zone, like Chico, California, Madison was Montana, were right

the right, different old, different area codes. If if we're not your market, Madison, Wisconsin right there on from five to nine there, So St. Louis five to nine. You're one hour behind us, but still live, still live, and you can listen to the show live. You can participate live, you can call us and live joined conversation. Here is no way to listen to this podcast live unless you're in the room, which we do not offer currently at this time. No, not an option. Now finally caught up

from Lizard, I'm not done reading Lisa's email. Go for it anyway, she tells us. So I'm gonna just give you the bullet points. She had a problem with um. She was going to a wedding and they rented suits, they got them altered, and they rented tuxedos. They picked them up like a day before the wedding, and then when they didn't have time to like try them on.

It was acting whatever, partially her fault, but okay, when when her son put the suit on going to the wedding, the pants were too wide like clown pants, and they were four inches short, it looked like there was a flood going on. So she had a problem with the company. And here's what she wrote to me. I'm one of these people that I see it. I called a spade a spade when I see it. But I've never been good at negotiating things to myself, like raises, salaries or

free dessert. She goes on and tells the story how this suit company screwed them over. She said, when I left the store, piste off, but I felt it is what it is. I spent almost a thousand dollars between buying my husband's suit and renting the suits for the kids we were leaving. For all, it was their marriage, right, Okay, I guess they got remarried. Uh they were, We were leaving for all honeymoon and didn't have any more time

if it's screwed. Around two months later, I started listening to the Brooklyn Boys and started hearing your rants and learning more about free dessert. Strangely enough, this suit company started sending me emails to my work email. I was just going to delete the email and block the address. When I thought no Brody would get his free dessert. I email their corporate office, and after a few days of back and forth emailing, I got my free dessert. I was really just looking for a refund for the

cost of the suit. They gave me a full refund, plus a hundred and fifty dollars in gift certificate and a forty dollar coupon, even as not even free dessert. I was so excited when I read the email. I've never been able to negotiate like that. I'm the person who has been to a restaurant and we served partially cooked fish, got no replacement meal, and still paid for dinner. Thank you for taking the time to read this email and educating insecure people like me about free dessert. Love

Love Love the Big Show, Get this. I'm only three podcasts in so far and he already got the free dessert message, but loving the Brooklyn Boys podcast. Sincerely Lisa the housing. Thank you. That's awesome. That's a great email from Lisa. Finally caught up, Elizabeth says from law Pennsylvania. Hello, Brooklyn Boys. You guys being on vacation helped me get caught up and I finally have sent you guys this email. I want to say, if you're not listening in order,

use are a big fuck you. Come on people. Uh, Brodie, you're absolutely the best down to earth person. I know you, I know and and and your girls are so lucky to have you as a dad. Oh I sometimes wish you were my dad. Your intellect, wisdom and taste and geeky nerd culture plus walking Dead makes it worth it to put up with your difficult way of being scary. I love how I don't know how what's the name

that's Liz from p A Hey, listen, listen. How about instead of dad just friend his friends A daddy daddy scary. I love how easy going you are and how you don't let things bother you or take it personal. Your contrast to Brodie one of the reasons why the podcast is so successful love you scary. Now off to the fan army name suggestions? Please? How about how about the even squad a playoff of Even is not even? Brodie? Are not nine that? What about the df WU gang?

Don't funk with us? How about the fu army suggested many times, that's not the worst thing. How f you army? Maybe we can't put on shirts? F you Army? Anyway? I up? Anyway, I will send another email later on. It's some of the seventies san since episode zero. Uh. We also got one from Grady Rogers. This is a long one, Brody and scary Scary Brody finished episode forty three. Hey Brodie, your Father's Day card jokes were terrific, The

Drake one easily the best. You're shared distaste for people who board planes earlier than they're supposed to with their group brought a story to mind that made me chuckle and feel awkward in the position it put me in. Seven weeks ago, I went to l A with my family, were boarding a flight and they called group three, which is us, and so we're in line and the woman in front of us says, oh, group far oops and

begins to turn around to get out of line. How I wish all the people were so my father, trying to be the nice guy, says to her, Oh, don't worry about it. What are they gonna do? And so she stays in line, and when she gets to the gate attendant to get a ticket scanned, they tell her, oh, I'm sorry, man, we're only born in groups one to three right now. So she was left walking her ass back to the end of the line once again thanks to my father, and now she probably has to stand

behind the fives. By the way, that fucking buzzer goes off. If they're only on one to one to three and your group four, it will go and they will get you out of the line. I've seen it done before. Okay, you have any more emails? I want to have one more email, but Greg t is calling my cell phone, which is where I'm reading the email. Line music. By the way, I got your music. You just read an email about people who get on the plane too early. Yeah, I want to talk about I mentioned this last week.

Uh it was the same flight with the two old people and the luggage and fuck you. You You know how the line works, right, Okay, I think I called a fun faces. The fun Faces Okay. So as I told you, we were in row nineteen. Okay, the people behind us, very nice people. They had a cat. I don't know if it was a comfort cat. What do they call us pussies. That's a lot of comfort, no emotional emotional distress, the service animals, yeah, whatever. They had the cat on

their lap. Whatever, And so my kids play with the cat for a second. I'm like, okay, find a nice people now in the plane lands. We talked about this. I think in one of the episodes. The people on the front should get up. The people in back. You'd sit your ass in the seat. You're not going anywhere, right, just sit down. When it's your road, get up, get your bags, get off the plane. Don't get up behind me. And if you get up behind me, you wait until

I leave. Oh the plane lands, the funk face to get off because they're like in rod thirt fourteen whatever they are, And then oh Mr Mrs Cat decide they're gonna get off the plane in row twenty before my road nineteen. So they get up. Excuse us, we have a cat. Fuck you cat. You're in road twenty. Go sit in first class if you want to sit up and get up the plane. Nineteen gets off before twenty. Doesn't up before nineteen. Let's get off the back of

the plane. But you know what twenty often does. They jostle their way into the aisle to block you before night. So my kid is next to me. That so my kids on the aisland. She's like, oh, Dad, they get the cat. No, no, your cat's not going sit out. And he's like, oh, I had cat. So he had already got the attention of row eighteen and eight. Team was like, go ahead, Why where's the cat? Why is the cat getting preference? The cat doesn't know it's on

a fucking plane. The cat doesn't know it's gotta get the plane. The cat doesn't have to go get its baggage. I have to get my luggage the funk out of here. Even a cat, you have a cat? I got three kids at the pea. I got three girls that can't They don't want to pee on the plane because it's not clean. I gotta get off the plane. You sit your ass down. You get a cat, What does that? What's the correlation between the cat and getting off the plane. I'm sorry, And if I have a dog, does the

dog get off the plane? Before the cat. There's the dog growl at the cat, and the cats are gonna fuck you. I gotta okay, I get it. The dog goes first. There's a bigger dog go before a smaller dog. What are the animal rules? What is I have a cat means? Someone explain to me why the cat has to go to play before me? Are the cat's legs cramped from sitting on a lap? Are you gonna walk the cat through the air put to stretch out? No?

You know, you know, Brodie, I I'm just my blood is starting to boil too, because I fucking hate when people do that. Rose. Are there for a reason you go in row water? We'll look right. We were taught that from fucking kindergarten, right from the first goddamn grade. Second grade. You don't skip the fucking the third grade before the second grade. You know well you did. But you know what I'm talking right, there's less by the way. By the way, this shows you what I'm gonna ask

whole I am. When I was a kid, when the teacher would say, everybody getting two lines, I would stand in two lines and they go, what are you doing? He said, stand in two lines? And they would yell at me, go no, get in the line. He said no, he said, getting too long. I was literal back then. No, But you're right, Brodie, and I fucking hate those people. I really really did have me. Dude, if I get off a plane faster, I'll buy a cat just to take on the plane. So I get a plane first.

This is similar to the person. It's like, I'm in a wheelchair. Yeah, I gotta broke, I gotta cast on my fly. I gotta go. I'm in a wheel Just sit down already, dude. The cats sat curled up on their lap the whole time. The cat didn't get a shitty meal on the plane. The cat doesn't have its ears popping. The cat didn't have to pay twenty five dollars for baggage. That's right. The cats not afraid of flying. I don't like planes. I had got into a fight. I was all stressed on the floor. I get off

the plane. I'm sorry. You want to say your kids sick? They have the plane. This is a hell of a flight. This is by the way, this is still the same flight that we were talking about from last week. By the way, if you didn't listen to episode yeah, this isn't the one where the people put their trays down and took my armrest. It's the same physic you said that next week, meaning this week you had to the l A flight when you and I and Nate went to l A. That was a lot of flying that night. No, no,

this is this is what I want. No, yeah, for the fuck you the twenty cat, that's it. The cat. The cat looked at me like, ha. The cat gave me the look. You know, cats give me that look right like I'm a cat. The cat gave me look like I'm getting off the plane and and you know what I got to look. I got the look from my wife and kids like don't say anything because of the cat. I go on front of the Hour about the cat. I am so mad about the cat. Not as mad as I am about the movie theater, but

I'm mad. Okay, I'll get to the movie theater minute. We have some unused jokes, Yeah, I got unused jokes. Or we got grammar police, we got all of it. We're just lining up. We're planes lining up. Three. Can I give you a grammar police, let's get let's get some grand done. Anymore gram police grama police police. Police. By the way, let's keep the grammar police is on Twitter at Brooklyn Boys w T WTF on Twitter. Please get the same place show and yeah, so we can

retweet you. We love retweeting. Still tweet me at David Brody and at What's yours um. But here's the thing. Stop with the type of police. Okay, typo unless it's funny. Unless if it's fun it's funny. But you're trying to catch me with a y'all grammar plaze. If I voice text and it says the wrong word, I don't I know my two two and two's my two right? And yeah. So if if if I've always texted or I or I I put P E A ins that a T and I typed it fast, that's not grammar police, that's

spell it fat thumbs. Okay, so this one's not a grammar place, but I was in front of it. I went to a Chinese restaurant with my mom over the weekend, and next to the Chinese restaurant is a pizza place that's missing a couple of letters on their sign. Should I give the name of the pizza place? Okay, it's D and T. It's the ampers and D and T pizza, but the pizzas missing the A, so it says piz But that's not the bad part. And again this isn't

grammar police. I I just, I just I. It has to do with wording, and the word restaurant is missing the end, so it says restaurant. I'm sorry. That's the one ladder. You can't take out a restaurant if you run a restaurant. Because I'm reading it, I'm going you don't. I don't have to put this up on my Instagram, hopefully on this up today it says restaurant. That's terrible. That's that's the world the most awful grammars that you can make. I mean, you could take out the s

be retaurant, I get it, but restaurant. You don't want that. What else do you have? A grammar police? Let me say, well, you know, um Omar sent something in on on Twitter which I thought it was hilarious. The freezers. No, the freezer. I'm going to read in a second unless you read it. You read the freezer one, go for it. That was a grammar police. Actually it's actually just kind of funny. It's a verbage police. It says lowslice, Yeah, lows, taking

the guests work out of storing the bodies. So it's a sign for freezers. And it says capacities one person three point seven cubic feet, small family eight point fourteen cubic feet, eight to fourteen medium to lunch family fifteen cubic feet. Now, what they meant was, if you're one person alone, you probably needed three to seven cubic feet, right, But it looks like you put those bodies. Very funny,

very funny on that one. How about the divorce lawyer that the divorce lawyer team that Omar sent in ditch your quick and hide did your quick and hide divorce lawyers? And that's funny. But that's not real coming. I don't know, man, it's not real. Should we google it? No, you don't think these three guys got together and said, hey, let's be divorce lawyers. Were all in the same field. Let's put our names in this order because they make sense. I don't know, Brodie, I'm not doing it. I'm not

giving enough credibility. Um. And also I had one other ground police that was a pretty bad mistake. But I don't even know where it is. Do you have you have another one? Uh? Did we read this one about the the clam shrimp but it was spelled C L A N C. No, no, no, no write it. It supposed to be clean shrimp, but they wrote clam shrimp. How about this, I guess that means they have hoods? And how about this one from my guess home depot?

Somebody said us a picture of a I guess a bunch of two by four is on a palette that were reduced from five four cents to four dollars and ten cents. They were on Clarence, not clearance. But somebody hand wrote that sign clarence. Do you do you really know how to how to spell the word clearance? Oh? You know what? Well, here's another one. The stake the steaks. Uh, somebody said they were it was it was some Spanish dish at a restaurant. It was a menu and they

were serving something and they said ches. I don't know, cheese was spelled wrong. It's chess. What's chess? Oh? Yeah, I have that one too. I can't find the sign on the I talked about dry cleaner sign. No, which one is it? Uh? It's it's as a dry cleaner in my town. And the sign says voted um most of quality, most of quality of quality. I think that's what it says. If you have your Grammar police for us,

please screenshot the signs. We'll try and get to them on a future episode of Brooklyn Boys at Brooklyn Boys w t F. Put them there and we'll retweet them hashtag grammar police. All right, why were you late today? You made a big deal. I meant talked about this earlier in the podcast. You when the show ended at ten o'clock East Coast time. We did the fifteen minute morning show and you said, Broody, can we just do the Brooklyn Boys? We just and I said, I said,

eleven o'clock. That gives me an forty five minutes normally. Did prepare everything, get all the papers ready, and clear my work with my intern? Yeah, you're like eleven o'clock oclock. Please promise me, promise me. Promised. I wanted to do to eleven. And I said, scary. Every time you say eleven o'clock, you're down in sales closing deals. You're doing this, you're trying to solve a sales issue. And the problem was I had a tive with someone. Yeah, you have

someone in your life that sets times on meetings. Yeah, you you And then they are in a meeting. Well, it was five. I was where I needed to be and the door was closed on the guy, and I'm banging on the door. I'm like hello, and I'm pointing to my wrist. And who wears watches anymore? I don't, And I'm pointing at my wrist. I'm like, hello, time I gotta go. I gotta go. Point to your phone for the time people are gonna go. You wanta call?

You wanna call it right? And of course there was somebody in the office, so I'm like, okay, I guess I'll hang around here for a little while. Then I walk away, and then I come back at ten fifty five, I'm like, I gotta get this because I gotta talk to this dude before I came up here to do the podcast. And then freaking straight Nate is in there, Straightenna sitting there in a conversation, sitting on the guy's couch with the door closed, and I'm like, hello, can

we talk? I opened the door. Yeah, we you know, not gonna happen right now. So I waited and waited and waited, and I still didn't get to talk to the dude because I waited till ten after eleven. I'm like, you know what time for me to go upstairs and go do the podcast with Brodie. That's why I was late. Sorry, Brodie Okay is so notorious always still being in the meeting when he has a meeting with you. Yeah, and I didn't want to really out the guy, but we

just didn't look. And it doesn't mean we don't like him. But every time he schedules me, criple schedules. You know what he does is he schedules his meetings, let's say every half hour, but his meetings run long. Now, if you're in the meeting, you're like, bonus, the guy cares about me. You want to spend more time with me. But if you're outside the glass looking in, and it's never two minutes, it's always a half hour longer. And he tricked me, he said, I just need two more minutes.

It's like when you go to the doctor, you make a four o'clock appointment. If you get there four or two, you get the dirty look from the receptionist. Your appointment was at four, signed the sheet and have a seat. But if you get there earlier on time, you sit there for a fucking hour. So why am I getting there on time? When have you ever gone to a doctor where the doctors like the doctors running early today? Bullshit, I'll talk about that. I did. I already rant about

this probably yeah, yeah, exactly. So that's what he is. He's the doctor who says, make an appointment. So my problem is you made an eleven o'clock appointment with me knowing full well you actually had the appointment with Dr Late Guy, so you knew his receptionist was going to tell you he's in a meeting. I was hoping people who are later late tore late people, but he fucked me for a half hour, and then I have to come up here and do the podcast. What are you

telling me? I got to meet you at eleven o'clock when you knew you had a ten forty five with Dr Late Guy. Listen. I thought I was gonna be quick. I thought I knew you weren't getting here eleven because I knew you were meeting ten forty five guy, which means eleven fifteen. And then I texted you at eleven fifteen, and you and I said what the fuck? Because that's how we talked to each other. I said w t F and I wrote no, you wrote coming pissing, and

I wrote back, which one are you doing? And then I waited five minutes and I want, you know what if he's gonna piss, I'm gonna piss because he's not here. So I went to the men's room. And where do I find? You're in the bathroom paying, which means you weren't coming or paying when I when you texted me? So what were you doing when you texted me? I was on my way to the bathroom. No, you said coming,

which to the studio, and then you're like, pissing. It doesn't take five minutes, so you were all the way downstairs, probably still in the meaning wrapping up right, your fucking liar. I never got to the know. After this podcast is over, I still gotta go back to walk to the guy. I'm ending you to the list. You scared? Don't you? If you scaring me? Hit the hit the music fromounce On. Before we get into that, we got a text from Area Code is right. No, hey Brookelyn boys, you guys

kick ass. Hope you're recording right now, I'm stuck teaching summer school to a bunch of smelly fourteen year olds. F you to them and their non bathing, non deodorant wearing stench. I feel a coming on, so fuck you, non bathing, non deodorant wearing stenchy smelly fourteen year olds. The tom here's to you, fourteen year old non bathing smelling. On the other it's it's summer school time. Oh god, that must be the worst. Remember being fourteen and not knowing what degree was or I was? I was a

junior high school. But listen, here's what I'm gonna say. If you're not smart enough to avoid summer school, you or not. You're not. And by the way, tweet me that you were in summer school and you didn't stink. Everybody stinks in summer school. It's a hundred degrees in the classroom, no air conditioning because the town didn't budget for it and they didn't schedule the thermostats properly for

the summer. And that's party of punishment. Next time, study in January, and you don't have to be doing homework in July. But I feel bad for the poor teacher who all they're trying to do is make some money as a side hustle. You know they're trying, you know, get that cash. And and this is what they have to put up with. Well, maybe day one should be pay everyone where deodorant? You should be able to tell your class to wear deodorant, especially if you're four team.

I think at that point you need to know. And if you don't know, now you know. And where are the parents? Where are the Listen? We were all four team. We all stunk, right, we all didn't when we first started smelling, and you're like, oh, my mother had to say something to be like you need to start were on the olderan Where are the parents telling these kids

it's gonna be hot? They're probably not home. These are these are people, These are parents that probably know whether these are the parents that are on the New York City subways that don't win the olderant. And there's got to be a rule if you're on the subway and and and most subways have these, but if they don't the term strap hanger. They have these handles they were they replaced the old straps and if you put your arm up to hold onto them, you cannot where you

cannot hold onto those. There's gotta be the deorderant rule. You gotta hold the poll, wrap your arm around the pole on the subway. If you have pit stink, don't. I don't want them exposed. I was on Instagram the other day. When are you not on Instagram? I mean, I'm always on Instagram, that's right. But I was checking out our our friend Carling Marie her story. She has a new podcast, Side Hustlers. That's that's what that's the

light bulb went off. Yeah, she talks to people doing side hustle stuff and I find that very an interesting concept. You should check it out. It's on Heart Radio, it's on iTunes. Side Hustlers with Carla Marie. We love her

and she also he's on a bunch episodes. Yeah. She also has an interesting um an interesting conspiracy theory that that the purse people are in cahoots with the fashion design world for women, where they they're paying them off or something they're paying off the fashion people to not create women's clothing with pockets on purpose, so the fashion people don't make pockets on women's clothing so the purse

people can make money. Okay, that's like saying that cargo shorts are not considered fashionable anymore because of the Fannie pack industry, and they want to sell Listen, they usually they do run in the same similar circles. They're fashion people, so so the people the big purse companies want to make as the maximum profit they can, so they force women into buying purses because none of their outfits have pockets on it. Have women carry purses anyway? Have you

ever thrown of that? But women I see with pockets carry person I'll pockets. I'll tell you. If anyone should be thinking, I don't know, it's an interesting If the person industry should be thanking anybody, it's the yoga pants industry because there's no place to put anything anywhere. I mean, you got a coin purse usually coin purse perty, Yeah, yeah, looked at it. Hold on, where's Carla Marie? I'm just taking off whatever? Can I do my jokes? Oh? You

want to do your jokes? Okay, play the music. I just want to make sure. Yeah, but while you're looking through your phone, Mike FRANCESSA, uh, why don't I pull out audio up? Because I just referenced it. Oh, I gotta do the nuts thing. You're nuts sticking the jokes, do the jokes and then uts thing, the nuts thing, pissed off. Well, you're doing the unused jokes. I'm gonna pull up the nuts thing. Yeah, okay, Silberg Burger, this

is for you. These are jokes and punch lines that Brody gave to Elvis that needn't used on The Big Show. The people on the show, so we don't we we're doing them here on this show. This is what we call unused punch lines. F you, Daniel Silberberg, go Brody. All right, very nice. Hold on, I'm looking at my phone getting alerts. All right, yeah, no, no, uh, Netflix wins us bankersy courts approval determining contract what the Weinstein Company? Very nice? Okay, oh that's not good. What's n's a

sad news out of cypress? And look that up? Look and some Walking Dead news. By the way, Big the Walking Dead news will be on the next episode of Walkers and Talkers. Hi. So today we talked about on the show and The Big Show what one word describes other people on the show, and it was one word described scary. Well, nobody asked me my one word was. And if you guys listen in order. You know, spittle one of my favorite parties. I did not get to do that on the air. Uh. Kathleen, web girl Kathleen

on our show runs Elvis rand dot Com. She was she was smelling her arm pits, and so I pointed it out and I was called her in the studio and she said she had shrimp scampy last night at a place called Scampis in New York, new restaurant, not a sponsor, and that her arm pits smelled like scampy, like the garlicy wine sauce. That she was sweating scampy sauce.

So I said, she's got scampits. We didn't get to it. Uh. Straighten Nate on the show had camel toe today, he had like crabi pants were so freaking tight you could tell he's not Jewish. And uh, so I said and said, a straight Nate, we should call him off to the left, Nate, because he clearly was off to the left. Today Elvis was telling a story about a friend of his who's penis has a little pocket. He's unser compsized and he has a little flap of skin that you could put

things under, like stole little notes. You may at joke about it a little penis pocket. I said, oh, that's a cocket. He wouldn't say that on the air. Now he's a joke. Is the misinterpreted, misread joke of the day of the month. You may may not know that Elvis Durand got engaged this week to his long time boyfriend Alex. Very happy for them. We thought it was never gonna happen. They got engaged. You also need to know that Elvis there's a couple of homes. It's done

very well for himself. He has more than one place to live. He's got a few places. When we joked at him about it, right, so we talked about how he was gonna go to home depot. Oh, no, by getting married. He said, Alex wants to register at home depot because he likes to do fix her upper stuff. He likes to do stuff around the house. They should register at home depot. So my joke to Danielle, what does that You see that right? Deppi's paper there? Yeah, no,

what it says? I held it up to Danielle for her to do the joke, and she looked at it. Went right. Now, I stand sort of in a triangle in the studio where Elvis's if Elvis was, if it was a clock, if Elvis the way I was facing, if Danielle was at twelve o'clock, Elvis is at three o'clock, and I'm at six o'clock right, So Elvis is off to my right in an angle. So he sees the piece of paper at an angle of the joke I wrote, and I held up for Danielle to look at, and

Danielle made a face. So we go to commercial and Elvis's, hey, man, don't give offensive jokes to people that they're not comfortable doing, so I said, talking about and I realized what he thought I wrote. Now, what I wrote was he should go to homes depot. Homes right, I got a home depot. I have one home. He should go to homes depot. Not the greatest joke in the world, but a little chuckle, well chuckle. Elvis and Danielle thought that I wrote homo

depot because he's getting gay married. But that's a funnier joke anyway, but it's inappropriate. I would never write that joke, not for the radio. But you don't fair well all fair like joking with Elvis. I would go yeah, you should go to Homo depot because he knows I'm joking with him and he is accepted on the air. Now, I would never do that. It's offensive to many people,

of course. And by the way, if if you took offense to that, just now, and you happen to be gay, But if you're not gay, but don't get offended, like, don't get offended by things if you're not that person, Like, don't get offended by by Asian jokes. If you're not Asian, you can point out it's insensitive, but don't be offended for other people. Anyway, I didn't use it, And if I would never write that as a joke, right, I

don't call people that. Elvis knows I would never, but he thought I did in the heat of the battle. The show is live. I just want to say the joke is Holmes depot. My handwriting is bad, I get it, but I would never written. So it was a joke that didn't get done because they thought it was an offensive joke. It was not. Now we have the we have the nuts left here, all right, So from time to time I bring an audio. Now it's me holding

the phone up to the radio in my car. So I apologize for the audio, but I'm gonna tell you what the audio is, and I'll tell you why I'm upset. We make fun of morning shows where um, people just giggle for no reason. You watched like morning television and they all go nothing funny was said, and bad radio

shows do that. And yesterday on Ellen, if I may add, go ahead, she had some guests in the studio and they were applauding at everything, applauding every five seconds to the guests on stage like yeah, it was like a heartfelt moment and right, and then they're like yeah. And then my father and I we got back together. Ah, So what are you gonna do for a living when you get older? What are you gonna do? I'm gonna I want, I want for the I'm gonna be a lifeguard.

Oh oh and you and what are you gonna what are you gonna do? I think I'm gonna be a teacher. And oh It's like and I stopped and I sat there and I'm like, these people are fucking idiots. Be a studio audience will laugh and we'll club all any at anything at any time. I let me take a couple of things about studio orders. I'm gonna pull back the curtain on some TV shows. I can't say for all of them, I'll tell you for some of them.

I was annoyed, all right. Sometimes they have somebody offices to the side and would applause signs telling you to applaud and go on whatever. I went to the taping of a TV show. Now I know that one of the hosts, and I'm not gonna I'm not gonna out them yet. I'm not going out them. Don't don't tell me I said I was gonna say. I'm not gonna say it. But we went to the show and they do a warm up. All TV shows do a warm up.

They have a comic come out. They warmed the crowd the warm up comic or entertainer or produced that they came out, had the audience run through a list of reactions that they filmed. So they go, all right, you just heard something hilarious. You can't believe it was so funny. Your sides hurt. Go and we and they would film us going right. They go, now, you just heard something. You're shocked. You didn't know. Everyone act amazed and point right. Okay,

Now pretend someone just revealed something. But you then, but you thought it was serious turned out to be funny. I get it now. Yeah, And they had a tool his reactions. So what they did was when the show aired, they had like audience cuts to us doing those things that we know we did in the pre show, right slick Stephen Colbert does this and and he doesn't pretend, but they do it for like he does Midnight Confessions on Thursdays or Fridays, by all the Friday shows are

taped on Thursdays. He makes a joke of it's not really a secret, but it's all a great Friday crowd. But it's actually they do too on Thursday. But they do a thing like he goes, um, you won't tell anybody,

will you? And they all go no. You know that that wasn't alive because you can't get everybody to say the same thing like instantly, right um, And so they I'm sure they pre record them saying everybody go no, one to no. So it looks like when he says you won't tell anybody, and they go, oh, he goes, of course not. That's they all say, of course not.

But you can't get everyone to say of course not exactly the same time, unless they've been rehearsed ahead of time and say on the count of three, not of course do it again. This side was late, right right, and they get that in the can they have the perfect one and then they show that. So so anyway, so I believe my point was Ellen may have staged that, they might have been like legit reactions, but either way, shame on the producer for overdoing it with the os.

Look a bunch of monkeys, which reminds you of that sketch from SNL when when when they had the fake Oprah sketch and she gave away stuff and their heads exploded in the crowd, They're like, oh my god, the heads exploded. Yeah, so this nuts laugh. Um, oh, hold on, Karen sass At Karen sass four says, hey, Brody and Scary, please have both of your mom's back on the podcast, all right, coming speaking a Sassin going on a tangent

reminds me of uh, I believe he's a senator. By the way, I think there's free food in the lunch room because people are walking with Hold on a second, I want to get this right because I want to be I'm gonna be wrong. Hold on a second, m h alright, Mike Francesa, No, hold on yeah. Senator Ben Sass. Senator Ben Sass spells his name s A S s E. Now, this is not political in terms of what my opinion is.

You guys can probably figure what my opinion is. But during the try the it was more like testimony of FBI agent Peter Strock. It's pronounced Strock, but it's spelled str z okay, probably Eastern European, you know whatever, but it's But so if you hear a name over and over again, like Robert Mueller, who's doing the Trump investigation, he spells it m U e l l e R, which is spelled Mueller, but his name is Mueller. If

you're in a room, hello Muller. If you're on TV, you're on your cable news, right, and everyone's like Muller, Muller, Mulla, Muller. Why are you the asshole of Goes Mueller? Are you not hearing everybody say it? Right? So in this Peter Struck hearing his name is Struck, right, they are not the introduced him as Struck Peter Struck, pet So is this the clip? Now we're gonna play I'm on a tangent, and then people are calling him Strusak, streak, right, stroke,

his name is Struck. Stop looking at how things are spelled and pronounced them the way their names are pronounced. That's it. Man's name is Mueller. So the point was Ben Sass is a US senator. Right, If you don't know Struck's name or Mala's name, I give you one. I'll give you a pass one. But if you're in the House of Representatives and you're holding this hearing and you quote Ben Sass, how dare you call him sassy? One of the one of the guys said it referred

him as Ben Sassy? How do you not know his name is Ben Sass? Happens all the time. Though we see this, we see this happen a lot. We hear it a lot on reports on the news. Yeah, I don't understand. You hear a million market TV, small market TV news the worst. Well, I don't understand how you can hear a thousand people say it one way, and but you look at the spelling and you said, I have to pronounce the way it's spelled, or you have it in your head. You can't help you. How do

you not realize it's wrong. How do you not realize if everyone in the room there's there's like fifty congressmen and women, congresswomen saying struck, struck, struck like Trezak, Mr. Strazak. Maybe they weren't paying attention. How does some of that elbow them? Gonna? It's Strock? The name was said a thousand times struck star talk tresok sassy, I don't get it sassy all right? So people laugh for no reason.

This clip, they were talking about being on a plane, that they're getting rid of peanuts on a plane, that they're not going to Southwest Airlines long gonna peanuts because the peanut allergies. So the woman says, I've never been a peanut fan. I don't like peanuts. I'm not that upset about it. She s goes, what about you? And the guy says what he likes? Now, if you can't make it out, I'll tell you what he said afterwards.

But he doesn't say anything funny and listen to her reaction and I try, so she says, I'm not really a peanut person. I put my earbuds in and I try to get through the flight. And he says, I like mixed nuts. Now, if you're making a sex joke, you couldn't make a laugh about that, Like, I bet you do, right, Here's I like mixed nuts, salted almonds or pretzels. And on pretzels, She goes, ha ha, play the clip again now that you know what they said,

and I just try to what's funny about pretzels? If you said like nuts, you go, here's I like the mixed nuts, almonds, salted pretzels. Yeah, people do it all the time. It's cartuitous. It's like it's almost her way of wrapping up the conversation. But why wouldn't you laugh at mixed nuts? Why are you laughing at peanuts at pretzels? People do this all the time. This is That's what I'm saying. They did it on Ellen, they do it

on a million shows. They do it pre rehearsed, they do it when it's not I would like someone to stop in the middle of a go I'm sorry, why are we laughing? I watched the episodes of Dr Rage. They do the same thing. But what would she say if you said that, why are you laughing? It was funny? What was funny? I said? Salted pretzels, you know, because it's not funny. She should be fired. I don't even know who she is. Out of a job. It's a nervous laugh. No, it's not a nervous later on television

that got to you, huh. It pissed me off, and I didn't think twice about it, No, because I work hard to make people laugh for real. Alright, this guy's getting free laughs. He's not getting people giving him five stars on iTunes. By the way, continue giving his five stars on iTunes. We need that, you know what. Maybe, just maybe I'm upset because we're from Brooklyn.
