Man, so I don't know, I've been on a kick here lately. I've been watching a show that used to be a late night treasure and that is cheaters. And I've been watching a little too much cheaters. And you know, first of all, you know, I don't know, I'm talking to a very limited crowd here. One, did you know that Clark Gable is dead? Like he died? Oh, the guy that hosted the show? Dang, I didn't know that. He was pretty young. Yeah, the guy that hosted the show. Yeah, apparently he overdosed.
And then two, did you know that Joey Greco now is a real estate agent in Dallas? So you could buy a house from this man in Dallas, Texas. I hate to say it, but I thought if anybody was going to overdose, it would have been Joey Greco. You thought it was going to be Joey Greco? That dude, what's funny is mess is watching it now because the first time I really watched cheaters, I was a teenager.
And so things were a little different now that watching it through what I think is funny is how Joey tries to assert himself, just like, don't you see what you did hurt this person? And it's like, nobody's talking to you right now. I don't know, bro. He always be inserting himself. I think what I like more about Joey Greco is he actually tried to stir up drama versus Clark Gable. He would, he would just kind of just be there and just he'd be calm and cool.
I didn't know that guy had a drug problem. He just seems so put together. I mean, I, I, I would have guessed that he probably would have done more adult entertainment films rather than drugs. Like he gave me that kind of vibe. But Joey Greco, I definitely thought he was on some drugs. Well, well, you know that Clark Gable, he was Clark Gable the third and that was, uh, Clark Gable, like the actor back, you know, the early, early actor. Oh, really? That was his great son.
Oh, well, I just thought he was just making up that name because he, uh, Yeah, I thought so too, but apparently not. See, this is how much I've been watching cheaters. You, you look up Wikipedia on it and you find out all this information. I'm Chris and I'm Michael and this is the donut box podcast. Well, that's always interesting. The more you learn, I learned something new today. Yeah, man. And you know what?
If you're ever looking for a house in the Dallas, Fort Worth Metroplex, hit up Joey Greco. Yeah, I think I might, I think I might reach out to him, but I wonder if he ever gets anybody that like, it's like, Hey, you're on that show and they ask him questions. Maybe, maybe not. I think that's a limited person. You know what's interesting?
We're going to go down a small rabbit hole here because I actually did read his bio and the funny thing was, uh, this real estate agent, see, he works for is actually pretty prestigious kind of hoity, toyy. And so I was kind of curious of, uh, how they were going to play off the fact that he was the host of cheaters because it's probably not exactly the greatest look for these guys. And, um, here's, here's the exact verbiage right here. It's, um, from his ESPN success.
So apparently he started off at ESPN Greco transition to the reality television market, spanning a decade as the host and co-producer of a long running internationally claimed television show among other product or other projects. So yeah, they just, they just didn't even want to mention it. They're just like, yep, he was on TV. That's all they said.
I think the funniest part of the bio though, if I have to say it's Joey success could be summarized with one word and that's quote, listen, there you go. Ladies and gentlemen, there you go. Donut box listeners. We're so glad that you've joined us for this fun ride. I have a feeling it's going to be an interesting one today, but we are back to our regularly regularly scheduled programming. It's officially June, man. It's officially summer. Yeah, man.
And I don't know about you, but I am pretty darn tired. It's been crazy couple of weeks. And so like you said, it might be a wild ride on this donut box podcast. There's no telling what's going to happen. Well, we're going to start off with the old fashioned donut, which is a story from our past. Incidentally, right around this time we're releasing this episode.
It will be have, it will have been 11 years that we moved to Texas and shortly after we moved to Texas, we took a little trip around Texas and one of the places we visited was San Antonio. I had never been anywhere except through Dallas and then the Lubbock and then we kind of visited around West Texas, but we visited San Antonio for the first time and that was an interesting experience.
Yeah. And if you've heard of previous episodes where we talked about the first vacation that we took through Texas, we did San Antonio, we did a couple other cities, but San Antonio in particular was a little bit of an interesting experience. So first and foremost, we took a car with my grandfather and my parental units and we went down to San Antonio and it was a black car in the middle of summertime and the AC was out, but they didn't want to admit that the AC was out, but the AC was out.
Would you agree with that statement? Yes, it was. I remember thinking now like six hour trip. That's a really long trip, but back then I don't know. I don't know if we just watched movies. I don't know what we did kids back in the day before iPads. You kind of had to entertain yourself on a road trip. Now there were like portable DVD players and those were a thing, but kind of had to entertain yourself.
Yeah, but when there's two people, unless you had a splitter and that's a lot of cables, you know, it can't be sharing the electronics like that. So you got to figure something out. What does that cloud look like? The license plate game. And then of course there's punch buggy where you punch each other every time you see a BW, but hey, that's a whole different subject. So we go down to San Antonio and we stayed at this hotel. You know, this was so however you Chris, you were 18, right?
Yep, I was 18 going on 19. And I was 17 about to turn 18. And think about this. We just got on vacation. It was a pretty big move. It was a move across states and everything. So we're looking to have a good time, but there's only one car and we didn't have access. They wouldn't let us drive this car around. Plus it had no AC so that really stunk. So we had to find our own fun and not to mention we were sharing a room with grandfather there. So we couldn't really do anything.
We couldn't even watch Family Guy. Could we, Christopher? No, yeah, it was kind of weird that like I wish that grandpa would have got his own room, but you had of course parental units or cheapskates trying to save money, all that good stuff. So there were three of us sharing the room. And yeah, we did get control over what we wanted to watch. I just remember we came into the room and he was watching this guy walk across the Grand Canyon on a tightrope with no harness.
And this guy had like some powerful Christian testimony. I remember Joe Losten was there. They were all gathered around the TV and they're like, yep, yep. They're like, this guy's got, he's doing this for the lower. That's what he's doing. And so we, we would turn on Family Guy and I just remember his grandfather waking up being like, I thought this was a family show. This is inappropriate. It's like, no, it's just titled Family Guy.
He got so mad and this was, I think this came on and it was like 930 at night, something like that. I don't know. And so it was, it was kind of a bummer. So I do remember that Hampton Inn, they be making cookies. So we would go downstairs and be getting some cookies from the front desk. And well, Chris, what do you want to say about what happened at the front desk? No, no, no, I'll let you tell it because I don't know about, I don't remember what happened.
I don't remember how it even got to that point. So, so, you know, we're going to share a little bit here. So Chris and I had a rule back in the day, because you know, we're friends, you got to be wingman when you, when you're trying to get with the ladies. And so I remember I famously broke the rule because the rule was you help me, I help you. And a lot of times we'd be just hitting on random women and it's like, okay, yes, you're pretty fine. So you know what? It's my turn, right?
So you're going to help me hit on this lady, right? And so I remember there was this particular lady at the front desk of the Hampton in there. And well, she flirted with you first. So I was like, okay, well, got to got a cussid to that. So I'm going to help you out. So we kept going down there for, you know, as a famous comedian would say some milky cookies. No, just mainly some cookies. Yeah, I don't even remember how it like progressed or even what she said or I don't know.
I was at the time I was like, oh yeah, just Texas people are friendly. I just thought she was being friendly. But anyways, continue the story. I'm sorry. For sure. And so anyway, so that first night we, you know, we pack it in whatnot and help my boy a little bit. Second day we turn around and this was in the middle of summertime and we went downtown San Antonio and I remember we went did the Alamo and then we also did. Ripley's believe it or not.
And then we also did tower the Americas, which what did you think of all of those? The Alamos, you know, if you haven't seen the Alamo, it's great to go to her. Yeah, I love the Alamo. We, I went back recently, probably about two years ago and I was like, man, like just a history of it. Some people don't really care, but like it's a big piece of Texas history. So I, I, I think it's awesome. It's amazing. I think it's a great tour walk toward the boat tour, which is also with that.
And then of course Ripley's believe it or not, like if you've never done it before or been to the wax museum, it's pretty cool to go to Tower of the Americas. I was just like, we had to pay to go walk up this tower. Yeah. Yeah. And I have a particular fear of glass elevators and there's a lot, a big lift up to, up to the top of this thing. And I'll say this, I actually went back to Tower of the Americas to eat in because there's a restaurant there. It's not that great to eat at either.
I kind of made me sick afterwards too. Anyways, I digress. So I remember doing all of that. The other thing I remember, it was really, really hot. Like it was really hot. And a particular person in our party decided to be, I have a lot of delightful words that I'd like to describe her as in this moment. There you go. That's a great word. And she decided to be that way. And so it was really cramping our style.
So we get back to the hotel and we start finding anything that is away from the hotel that is just in the vicinity. Well, what was next door was the Chuck E. Cheese. And you know, as Chris used to be a employee of Charles Entertainment Cheese, we decided, you know, why not? We kind of know the ins and outs. And I don't even know why didn't you still have like some tokens or something? I feel like you still had some tokens from then like when you moved.
I still had a ton of tokens from when you had a cup full or something. And so we were just like, you know what? We might as well. And so we went over there and basically had a fun arcade time. And that's what we ended up doing the whole time. But to get back to the lady story. So Chris started macking on this other gal that was up in the Chuck E. Cheese. So he had his little hotel thing going on. And then he had the Chuck E. Cheese thing going on.
And all I remember is just being like, you know what? It's just like, you know, because Chuck E. Cheese is supposed to be my term. But hey, it was one of those things to where it's like we had to. Yeah, I broke. I broke the rule. I broke. But he was nice about it. He asked. He was like, Hey man, can I break the rules? And he's like, Yeah, yeah, for sure. But she was into you too. So it was like, yeah, I know this sounds really bad.
We had like a rule that we're like, I promise we were just 17, 18 year old kids that would just flirt with anybody that would give us the time of day. So but yeah, so, so yeah, I did ask Mike. I remember asking him, Hey man, I know that last time it was, it was my turn. But do you think it's okay if like we skip this time and you know, then the next time you'll get a double turn. It's just like, yeah, for sure, man. That sounds great. So, so yeah, it was, it was this whole thing.
And so we ended up doing all of that. But what we end up happening was I just remember the majority of the time in San Antonio after that, we really didn't go out. I just remember we went to Chuck E. Cheese mainly. What else did we do? I think we went to what is now Boop Barn. It was Shepherds at the time. We did go out there. Also you have to mention too, when we went to downtown in San Antonio, it was crazy because the San Antonio Spurs had just won the finals.
Oh yeah, because the Spurs had won the champion. Yeah, they had just won the championship. And if you've never been in a downtown area, now it wasn't like LA where they flip in cars and stuff's on fire. But you know, it still was very, it was still a really crazy time. I remember traffic being just out the wazoo. But and I remember there being a ton of people, ton of drunk people too. Yeah. So we got to pick back up off this story. So I don't know what happened. I don't know how it happened.
I think I may or may not have gotten her number. I'm not sure. I don't remember. But I just remember her being like, hey, like I have to work the overnight shift, right? Like I'm going to be here hanging out. Like if you want to come hang out later. And I would just like, oh, okay. And she was like, yeah, like there's a movie that we're going to put on here, but I'll just be here hanging out if you want to come hang out. And I was like, oh, okay.
So then I just remember talking with Micah because the thing about his parental units and his his and grandpa and grandpa grandpa. Do you, you just didn't want to tell him what you were doing because they'd ask you a million questions and they wouldn't let you get out of the hotel room. Even though you were like 18. I was like, I'm not leaving the hotel. I'm just going out of my room. And even if they did, they'd be doing some weird stuff like they'll be making rounds.
Like you'd be sitting there with her and all of a sudden you'd be seeing them. It's like, why are you walking around? Anyways, go ahead. So then I just remember like going downstairs and I remember like we watched the movie and we talked, but but she ended up telling me she had a boyfriend. And so I was like, well, why the heck are you sit sitting down here with me watching a movie? So that's when I kind of like backed off.
I like backed off and I was like, yeah, I ain't gonna like, I ain't gonna pursue this no more. Yeah, for sure. And that was that was always real interesting. How long was I gone? Do you know how long I was gone for? I don't remember how long I was gone. I think it was only like an hour. It wasn't that long. It wasn't that long. I also remember too, like we had to wait till homie fell asleep, grandpa fell asleep. I feel like we planned that out because you were like, yeah, I'll come for you.
Like we got to wait till he falls asleep. So I didn't end up going down there till like 10 o'clock. Yeah, you know what we ended up doing? I shut the bathroom with the light on and if he was going to wake up, the whole plan was, yeah, he's in the bathroom. He's not feeling too well. And just to buy you some time. So thanks. Yeah, it was a good friend. It was a good friend. Amen. Amen. It is what it is. That's all about being a good wingman, right? But yeah, that that vacation was interesting.
It was, yeah, I don't know. I guess that's the that sums up a lot of what happens with our friendship. You got to make your own fun. Like we kind of made our own fun on that trip, I guess. Yeah, because it was especially like they, they would be like, we're going to go back to the hotel and we're going to just hang out at like four o'clock and like being a 17, 18 year old kid, well, you don't want to go hang out at the hotel. Like you're in a new city.
Like you want to just go explore everything, but we didn't have a car. So it's like, all right. And that, and again, like Micah said, that's one of the things about our friendship is like, okay, what can we do to make our own fun that we're not going to spend a whole bunch of money doing? Like, that's always the challenge. And so, and when you do that, you find creative ways to have fun.
And then you find like, sometimes hole in the wall places like we did with a couple of arcades and you're like, Oh, like this is actually a cool place. Yeah, absolutely. And, you know, and like Chris said, and cheap, I think that was the best part about Chuckie Cheese going into that was, I think it was once you did finally run out of tokens when that was, it was, I remember it being like $10 and it by two hours worth of games. So it was, it was a good deal.
Back then before inflation, ladies and gentlemen, you could spend $10 and get like 200 tokens. Yeah. And one last funny story, I just remember this was the first time I'd ever seen this. One of my parental units, the one that wasn't being crabby, he actually found us at the Chuckie Cheese is like, Oh yeah, I went to come find you guys. It's like, yeah, you're, it's like your mom's B to B. And I was just like, dang, okay.
And he, he like, I just remember he wanted to come hang out at the Chuckie Cheese and I was like, man, this is just sad. Even the adult can't take the freaking car and go somewhere fun. We got to hang out the Chuckie Cheese. Crazy times. So we're moving to the next segment, which is the jelly donut. What do you say private pile? Sorry, jelly donut, sir. A jelly donut. And that's the jail report. So I actually have a jail report for us today. Holy cow. What has this been?
It's been quite a few episodes since we've actually had a jail report. Yeah. So, so yeah, I have a couple of stories. They're actually real arrest stories. And so here we go. The first one, um, this man got arrested on his wedding day. Oh man. Yeah. So the groom got arrested. A Nevada man was arrested after he forcibly removed his mother from his church wedding and carried her to her car where, when she objected to his impending nuptial.
So she stood up, you know, that part where they say, if anybody objects, please speak up or forever hold your peace. He stood up and injected to it and he, uh, he told her to sit down and she didn't. And then he forcibly removed her to the car.
So he got arrested for that assault or what here also to, it says a scuffle between the mother and son and soon when the mother tried to doubt 911 from her cell phone, according to a volunteer at the church, the mother said, as soon as I walked into the church, my son grabbed me by the neck of my shirt and drug me out of the church. The groom contends he simply carried her to a car because of leg problems, according to the report.
The groom was arrested in charge with disorderly conduct and coercion. He was taken to the jail and later released, uh, wedding vows were not exchanged. The newspaper reported. So could you imagine having that on your wedding day? Yeah. Um, do you think they'll ever go through with the wedding or do you think that means they called it? No, well, that was a long time ago. So I don't know what happened. I don't know what the, uh, yeah, I don't know what the, uh, issue was. Yeah. Who knows?
That's pretty nuts though. That would be a pretty crazy wedding day. Get, uh, get put in jail. Now let me ask you, what would you do in that situation? Get bailed out. Well, your situation is a little bit different. So yeah. Yeah, no, no for sure. But in that situation, man, I'd be doing a lot of thinking, I think, because, um, sounds like the other family's a little, little crazy there. All right. This next one, this, uh, this man got arrested for using an air mattress to cross the river.
Oh, okay. So, uh, but I'll tell you why. So this guy, Mr. Bennett bought an air mattress at Walmart and then allegedly paddled across the St. Croix River to Canada. So Canadian official said they found him walking down a road in New Brunswick with his clothes stopping wet. Police said that, uh, Mr. Bennett had tried to cross legally to the country, but had been turned away at the border. Apparently his pregnant fiance was in danger.
He told officials Bennett had pending criminal mischief charges in the States, which prevented him from crossing the border. Uh, Bennett was taken into custody and charged for the illegal crossing during the sentencing. Police said the judge noted that Bennett intended to come to Canada, come hell or high water. So yeah.
So I guess the story is, is that, uh, his, his fiance was in trouble and he tried to cross, um, but got turned away and then he was like, well, I'm going to get into Canada one way or another. Well, I mean, I get that, but at the same time, yeah, that's, that's a heck of a thing to get detained for. I mean, you have a couple of family members that are banned from Canada. So yeah. And it makes you wonder why?
Cause the story didn't add up, but the story you told makes a lot more sense of what could have happened anyways. But my thing is like, it's Canada. They're pretty nice up there. Like what do you have to do to be banned from Canada? I don't know. I, I've heard it was because, uh, had too many weapons in the vehicle and, and it freaked them out because they're from Texas. They had too many weapons in the vehicle. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know, man. All right. Hey, I don't know.
Next one. Amanda Montana named Levi was wanted on forgery charges. So the great fall slash Cascade County Crime Stoppers put his photo up among a gallery of most wanted on April 3rd. A short time later, police noticed a man named with the same name had liked the photo on social media. So then they tracked him down and it was the same guy and they arrested him on April 24th. That's like, bro, you can't be like in your own picture on crime stoppers. Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, dumbass. That's stupid.
Like how are you going to like your own picture on crime stoppers? Well, it sounds like, um, what was that one time on the jail report that we talked about that one lady who commented on our own pictures? Like you used the bad picture of me or whatever. It's just like, why are you doing that? And the police said, Hey, we'll be happy to come down and take a new picture of you. Yeah. This next one. And I have to put the disclaimer out there.
The the situation and the crime, sorry, the crime itself is not funny, but the situation itself is something to laugh at. Okay, so the crime is not funny, but the situation itself, um, and the headline is funny. So a man, a man assaulted his wife with a McChicken sandwich. Um, it says a picky eater was jailed Tuesday for reportedly using a McDonald's McChicken sandwich as a weapon against his pregnant wife.
According to a police report, uh, Mr. Hill admitted to police that he threw the sandwich at his wife because quote unquote, he does not like them. Hill was arrested for simple domestic assault and taken to the Polk County jail. So the police met with Hill at the couple's home and Hill told them it was actually his wife who assaulted him. Hill said that his wife woke him up around 1pm with a McChicken in hand.
He admitted to police that he was upset and threw the sandwich at her, then picked up some of the bun, again, he threw the bun at her again. Oh my gosh. The wife went to the bathroom to clean herself up, but hold on, I gotta take a minute, but Hill followed her and began recording using his cell phone, which he later shared with police in the video. Police saw the woman knock the phone out of his hands. Hill's wife had mayonnaise on her shirt and face when the opportunities arrived.
Oh, it's too good. It's too good. It's too good of a story. According to the woman, Hill had forcibly smashed the bun into her face. Police noted that the woman's nose was swollen and believed Hill was trying to entice the woman into knocking the phone out of his hands to make her appear aggressive. The report stated Hill was arrested and his weapons permit was confiscated.
I don't know what that has to do with anything, but the fact that my man assaulted his wife, pregnant wife with a McChicken, man, the assault itself is not funny, but using a McChicken. Oh, just the report itself. This man said, B, you know, I don't like McChicken's frigging through it at her, picked the bun up, throw it back at her, then smushed it up in her face, leaving mayonnaise residue.
Can you imagine, can you imagine you're a police officer on the 911 call and you're like, yeah, there's a report of a man assaulting someone with a McChicken and then you show up and they're just mayonnaise on the lady's face. Shoot. If I'm over here as the police officer, exactly. I'm sitting over here going in here and McChicken. You want to explain this to me? I wouldn't, I wouldn't believe my ears if he explained it to me like that. I wouldn't believe it.
Yeah. Well, ladies and gentlemen, assault is never okay. Especially with the McChicken, especially McChicken. That's a waste of a McChicken, bro. It's like, man, I don't know. Anyways, you know, like McChicken's. All right. That was the last one. I've got one. I think I saved the best one for last. Yeah, you did, man. I think I got one actually real quick if you're okay with it. We'll go on. So, um, recently I moved, had some movers, whatnot.
And one thing I like to do with movers, including Chris, that was got wild stories, right? So I was like, man, I bet you got some wild stories. And this guy said, yeah, yesterday, in fact, so the day before this, he was moving, um, this elderly couple, they had to be in their 80s.
And so they were moving and he said, um, he goes out to the truck and this guy, he was really ripped, but had tattoos and stuff, walks up to him and says, Hey, is, um, so and so in the house and like asked for the guy by name. And he said, yeah, I think that's his name. And he pulls out this picture out of his pocket and says, is this him? And he's like, yeah. And whoever it was got on the radio and called bunch of people in six cars, pull up and go and take this elderly man in custody.
And the wife was going crazy about, and meanwhile they're moving all this guy's stuff, right? And the wife is going nuts about, no, no, no, this happened 20 years ago. And the cop was like, nah, this happened just in 2020. Apparently like he exposed himself to a bunch of kids or something like that. And the, well, and the wife was trying to be like, nah, it was 20 years ago.
And it's like, nah, it was just, but yeah, they took him off, but it sounded like it was a little bit more than that with the whole, it sounded like it was like an undercover operation with like a bunch of vehicles and stuff. But they were, they were saying that was the craziest thing because he was just this old man, like he was real feeble, like he could barely, barely walk. Here they are hauling him off to jail.
And he was saying, the weirdest thing is, you know, we're in there loading, you know, loading up their new house. Like they had just bought a house. And so they're sitting here going, so do we keep loading the house or do we stop and come back another time or like what's going to happen? But they end up doing the job. And but I figure I was like, man, that's pretty nuts. It's pretty crazy. Yeah. That's nuts. You're over there and like, oh, that's going on. You got to stop. Okay. All right.
That's done. Now I got to keep loading up your house. That's wild. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. But yeah, man. So I think it's time to move into our next segment, which is the donut hole. Chris, what we got there? Is it a quiz? We got a quiz. You know, we got a quiz. And if you remember, I don't remember if it was this season or not, but I did an office quiz with you. The TV show. Oh yeah. Yeah, you did. We're doing the office part two.
And I'm going to ask harder questions because last time Mike, Micah went 10 for 10. Got them all right. He knows we're going to see how. Yeah, we're going to see, man. We're going to see how well I know this. I tried to make it a lot harder, but we'll see how you do. You might go 10 for 10. I believe in you. All right. All right. First question, which actor had to wear a wig for most of season three of the office a Steve Carell who played Michael Scott, be Oscar Nunez who played Oscar Nunez.
See John Krasinski who played Jim Halper or D Rainn Wilson who played white Shrew. I actually don't know this one. I'm probably going to take a guess, but I'm trying to think you said it was season three. I'm going to take a wild stab and say Steve Carell because season one, he had thin hair and then like the more the seasons go on, it was thick. It was actually John Krasinski who played Jim Halper and he had cut his hair for that movie Leatherheads.
And so for Jim, yeah, for Jim, he had to, he had to wear a wig for most of it. And then I think in season three, that's when they were like, Oh, you got the haircut. What's up, dude? Like you look all nice and everything. He was going to interview for that job and work. Yeah. I think so. All right. The actor was the first to be cast a Michael Scott be Ryan C Stanley or D Phyllis. It was Ryan actually. Right? Yes, it was. It was Ryan because the actor that played him was a producer.
He's a producer. You know, it's really weird him and John Krasinski, the guy who played Jim or like childhood friends. They like knew each other and childhood and whatnot. And they didn't know they were going to be auditioning for the same thing. Wow. All right. So how many birthday parties are there at Dunder, Mifflin? This goes from season one to season nine. How many birthday parties total are there? A 14 B 20 C 15 or D 17? Gosh, I'm going to have to count it up now.
Two seconds because we know the very first one was the birthday party for Meredith because it wasn't her birthday. It was like a month off and there was, I'm going to count these internally. So it's got to take me forever to say the minimum. You said 15 was a choice, right? I'm going to go with 15. I think there was 15. 17. Okay. Next one. What book did Michael buy Ryan for the launch party? Was it A, Oh, the places you'll go. B, somehow I manage C, green eggs and ham or D, total money makeover.
All the places will go. It's actually green eggs and ham. I thought it was a, well, I mean, that would be more of a Michael Scott thing because it's like, why didn't you buy him? Oh, the places you'll go. Well, didn't he throw it out the car? Whatever. He found out that he was only invited to the virtual party. Yep. That's true. All right. Where does Michael move for his new life with Holly? A, Nashua, B, Boulder, C, Philadelphia or D, New York? Boulder, Colorado.
Which toy did, did Dwight Shrewd buy all of so that he could make a fortune during the Christmas season? Which toy did he buy up? A, Princess Unicorn, B, G.I. Joe, C Barbie's dream house for D Beyblades. It was Princess Unicorn. There you go. My horn appears to sky. I don't know. I remember that. Who does Dwight end up trapped in an elevator with? A, Angela, B, Kelly, C, Pam or D, Phyllis? Pam, yeah. Yep. That is correct. That established a peak corner.
What sandwich does Dwight, sorry, let me repeat that. What sandwich does Dwight trick Michael into eating so that he can break into the Michael Scott paper company? A, tuna salad, B, an ultimate hero, C, a meatball parm, and D, ham and cheese. It was the meatball parm. Is there a worse sandwich? Who got dumped at the Dundee's in season seven? A, Michael, B, Kelly, C, Erin or D, Gabe? That's the later ones. Season seven. Let's see. I don't remember to be honest with you. That's a hard one.
I'm going to take a stab. Was it Gabe? Was it Gabe? It was Gabe. It was. I never liked that guy. No, I didn't either. Listen, I didn't like Andy, but I'd rather Erin be with Andy than Gabe. All right. Last question. When Dwight receives the facts from himself in the future, like from his future or so, what does the facts tell him not to do? A, trust Jim. Don't drink the coffee. Oh, there you go. I didn't have to read them. There you go. That's correct. Don't drink the coffee.
More instructions to follow. I know that. I know that one. I know these things way too, way too well. Now where it gets a little fuzzy is the later seasons. That's where it gets fuzzy. And let's be honest, when old Saber buys it, it's not as good. That's true. Well, that was our donut hole. And now we are going to move into what fries my donuts. What fries your donuts, buddy? Oh, man, we've talked about this and I'm going to keep it brief.
And maintenance people drive me nuts or just a part of not the people themselves, but just apartment maintenance in general drives me absolutely bonkers. So Christopher, I'm going to try to summarize this succinctly here because as you know, it's a long story. So we've had a problem in our apartment. We just moved in and we run our first load of washer and dryer and seems like it goes okay.
It's a little funny, but then the washer stops working like the middle part, the agitator that spins around in circles stops working. And so of course, okay, well, it can't really wash clothes to a net. So we put in maintenance requests for it. Not to mention there's now a water spot in our ceiling and there was dripping water and all sorts of stuff that started happening after we ran the dryer the second time. So this is a Saturday. So we call the emergency maintenance.
They came over there like, well, just don't use the dryer and we'll be back tomorrow. To look at the rest of it and fix the washer and dryer. They didn't come back because that was on Sunday. They didn't come back on Sunday. I called the office and they said, oh yeah, like they're not going to be back around until Tuesday because it's the holiday weekend. So they're off today and they're off Monday and they'll be back on Tuesday and they'll come do it on Tuesday. So I said, okay, fine.
Tuesday comes and goes, I don't hear nothing from them. Don't see them or anything. So Wednesday rolls around and I called them Wednesday morning in the office and I'm like, okay, are they going to be coming today and the lady up front said, yep, yep, they're going to be coming shortly to you. So be expecting them. Bro, I sat there and waited all day. They didn't show up.
So then what happens on Thursday, I went up to the office physically and asked for the manager and they said, oh, the manager's out all week. They're out all week. They only have one maintenance person to go around and a lot of ACs are out and whatnot. So like they're, they're trying to handle that and then shorthanded, but they'll be by sometime today, but definitely tomorrow for sure. So Thursday goes, of course, they didn't show up.
So then today, Friday, nobody shows up and this is about noon. And so I told my wife, I said, you know what, I'm about to go up to the office and I'm about to, you know, raise some hail. We go, we go raise some hail because this is, you know, getting ridiculous. And so it took me having to go in there. And by the way, it's funny because I go in there and I said, I want to talk to the manager. Well, the manager's not here right now.
Okay, we'll get them on the phone or something because we're going to have to talk about this. And it's funny. They were there. Wouldn't you, wouldn't you know they were there in the office. They come out. How can I help you? So then we go back in the office and I freaking tell them about everything that's going on and how it's ridiculous and how it's a part of our lease and all this other stuff. I'll spare you all the details.
You know what, 20 minutes, the maintenance guy came by only took them 20 minutes after that little chew out for that to happen. Sometimes you got to chew them out so you blew in the face till something freaking happens. But you know what's interesting, they came in here. Here's what aggravates me. It's like, Oh, so nobody's been here since Saturday and the maintenance guy was shocked and I'm sitting here going. That's what I've been trying to tell people.
Nobody's been by here since freaking Saturday. And not just that, they fixed three of the five problems, but they fixed the dryer issue and stuff, but they left the West patch in the ceiling and they said they'll be back on Monday for that. And then not just that, but they're trying to convince me. Oh yeah, the washer is not really broken. It's the timer on the washer, not the washer itself or the motor on the washer. And I'm going, I think you're full of crap.
And you just need to get me a new washer, but hey, it is what it is. And so anyways, man, all that to say this apartment maintenance and having to deal with it is just really, really crap. I know you've had some bad experiences with it, but man, it's just, it's a doozy.
Yeah. I feel like they, with apartments like they are just like, wow, we have so many units and all that stuff and we, um, and we, you know, we're trying to get to it, but they're like, well, there's nothing you can really do about it. So you got to, you're at our beck and call. You're just like, what the heck? And another thing, this is a sign note. You know how they try to tell you, you need to be making, well now I think it's three times the rent, right? To be in there, right?
You know them girls enough is don't be making three times the rent. You know, they don't be making three times the maintenance dudes, neither. Yeah. And I'm just like, bro, but I think that's the hard part is like, it's hard to find people for like apartment, apartment maintenance unless you're like either a, like just got released from prison or B, you're like a young kid, like 19, 20 years old, right? Like not too many. Yeah. Trying to look for some cheap living jobs.
Like, so that's kind of hard. Yeah. Really the only people, the only reason people work apartment maintenance jobs and I thought about it for a while is because of the cheap rent. You know, a lot of places either give you a place for free every month or they will give you something at a really, really reduced rent rate. And you know, that is pretty beneficial, but at the same time, it can't be a great job.
As much crap as we're talking about, it can't be a great gig because you, I, you know, I know some of the stuff that they got to deal with. And but at the same time, it's, I think what also bothers me too, and this is more than just the maintenance, this particular maintenance guy, bro, what drove me nuts is I told him a few times different things that were going on about this. One part about it was the leaky ceiling that was happening.
The previous maintenance guy had told me, Hey, it's the return air that is sending the hot air out from your dryer and it's sending it outside, but something must have built a nest or something in there. And so the condensation, I thought it was kind of full of garbage, but I didn't walk out there and see that, you know, the little vent thing that, you know, it's a vent covering that like has a little flat, but it keeps things from coming into the vent pipe out there.
Mine was missing off of there. So I noticed that. So I tell the guy, you know, that's probably part of the problem. You should probably fix that. Man, this dude didn't even listen and goes tells his, his little assistant like, Oh yeah, go down there and see what little vent fans are flapping. And he comes back up there and is like, Oh yeah, it's missing. It's like, bro, I already told you that.
Not just that, but he did things like he had to replace my microwave door because the handle broke on the first day when we were here. So you replaced the door, but I'm glad I looked because a little while later I go to use the microwave and he left all the screws in the mic, like screws and everything like in the microwave. I didn't take them back out. So if I would have ran that thing, it would have been, it would not have been very good, dude. So it's just stuff like that.
And it's like, man, it's like, I want to have grace for these people, but at the same time it's like that lack of attention to detail too. And then you take this long to get back to me and then you're going to be like, Oh yeah, we'll be back on Monday. It's like, bro, come on. This is just crazy. Got to love apartment maintenance. Ladies and gentlemen, gotta love it. Well, we are going to move into our improv segment. I'm ready to move on and that's our mystery donut.
And I think today we have a game questions only. Yeah, there we go. This one's a hard one. We haven't done it in a little bit. So questions only. We can only ask each other questions. Do you want to start off with the topic or something? Yes, I do. How about at a graduation part? Do you think there'll be cake? Why, why did you bring potato salad when you knew that I was going to bring potato salad? Are those chips? How many times do I have to tell you it is a chip?
You not know what a chip looks like? Does it look like I know what a chip looks like? Do you sometimes stop and think to yourself, maybe I should wait and ask this question at a later time? Do you really think through the questions that you ask? Do you know who my parents were? Do you know that? Sorry, hold on. I'm going to go back. Dang, I got you. Okay. Anyways, sorry. All right. All right. Next one, I'll let you choose the topic. That's all good. Okay. Shopping for a cell phone.
Shopping for a cell phone. Do you guys have any special deals on cell phones? Does this look like the latest model to you? How many gigabytes does this have? Does it look like I should know? Do you think that I can get a price cut on this phone? What's the deal with you and deals? Which is better, Apple or Android? Why do you always ask that question? Why wouldn't you ask that question? Who the heck cares?
Wouldn't you want to know what kind of phone you're getting and what kind of price you're paying? This is T-Mobile, isn't it? Did you hear that AT&T is having a 59, 99 monthly special unlimited calls, unlimited tech? Didn't you hear what I said? This is T-Mobile. Why can't you guys be more like AT&T? Why all these freaking questions? Do you remember Sprint? Does anybody remember those guys? Why wouldn't I remember them? Can you hear me now? Raising the bar. Okay. That's a rise.
There you go. Ladies and gentlemen. Hey, we can just start going with really old, yeah, slogans for telephone brands. All right. You want to do one more? We'll do one more. Let's see. Getting an oil change. Is this your best price? Would you like to get our 59, 99 a year warranty? Why are you always trying to have add-ons? When was the last time that you got your brakes inspect? Jesus, you and the add-ons. Why the add-ons? Did you know that your air filter's going out?
Is that going to be another $50? Would you think that I would charge you another $50 for the air filter? Will that be cash or check? How many miles do you have on your car? How do you want to know? Would you like for us to detail your windows while we're at it? I don't have anything else to that. All right, ladies and gentlemen. That was questions only. Well, there you go. Questions only. That was, it gets hard after a while because you want to answer with the non-question, but yeah.
But you can't do that because it's questions only. But you can't do that. Yeah, but I do like that game. We're going to move into our E. Claire, which is our positive advice. And I'll go first this week, I think it's my turn, I'm not sure I don't remember, but I'll go ahead. And I'm preaching to myself. I have told Michael this this week, we've talked about it. My problem is, is that I focus on the 10% that I'm doing wrong, instead of the 90% that's going well.
And that has been kind of a personal struggle for me. And I tend to do that with almost everything and I don't celebrate the wins. I tend to think that all the 100% is bad when really and truly it's just the 10% that needs work or needs improvement. And it's not that I'm failing. So just give yourself some grace when you're thinking everything is going wrong. Focus on the 90% that is going right.
And if it is the fact that, hey, you're failing or you're doing a bad job, I promise you other people will let you know or tell you. But don't be so hard on yourself and instead of just focusing on that 10%, focus on the 90% and celebrate it and it's okay. Yeah. What do you think body Claire was going to be? Well, it was, we don't give each other enough grace. We don't give, we don't give each ourselves enough grace that we would give each other.
So I was, you know, what I wrote down was, if a friend told you everything that you were currently going through in reverse, what would you say to them? And that was, that was a big thing that happened, you know, and I'm guilty of it too. It's a hard way to think, you know, when other people, if other people were going through what you were going through and they told you, would you be lenient towards them or how would you feel towards them?
Would you feel that they were doing a good job or a bad job? And you know, if you look at it like that, a lot of times you give yourself grace and you actually see yourself for what situation you're actually in. It's really, really hard. And, you know, most of the time for these other people, if they were other people, like a friend like Chris, you would respond with compassion and, oh man, you know, you're doing a great job. Don't worry about it, that sort of thing.
But for some reason, we talk to ourselves very poorly and we just don't give ourselves a lot of grace sometimes. And so, you know, it's easy to focus on the negative like Chris was saying, but it's one of those things to where you just got to give yourself the grace and lean into your support network because, again, like Chris was saying, they'll tell you what's going on if you're not right.
But chances are, if you're already consciously aware of the 10% that's wrong and you care about fixing that 10%, you don't really have anything to worry about. The people who don't do what they're supposed to do don't really care about the 10% anyways. So that's very true. Well it has been such a great time, hasn't it Mike? Yes, it has. Yes, it has. And you know what?
It's even better time over at the trash can nation on our social media pages on YouTube, all that good jazz aviator society over on Instagram as well. If you like to play and stuff, man, we have all sorts of stuff going on there. Of course, you got plenty of playing stuff. Of course, you got podcast stuff and you know, we'd be sharing origins of sayings and all sorts of other stuff as well, which are pretty interesting.
There's all sorts of stuff that we say all the time that you have no clue where it comes from, right? So it is some cool stuff. So anyways, man, check it out. Other than that, man, I think we're ready to take this donut box out to the trash. What do you think? I think so, man, keep this out. All right, man, I'm Mike and I'm Chris. This is me.
