Not not not to make this fan. It's like you didn't sand Okay, baby, time for friends. Wolf River Electric, you can go solar and I might actually do this, by the way, I'm looking into it. Go solar with Wolf River Electric and see him at the Home and Garden
show. I think my wife's going today, and I think if you're there, she's the redhead spending money. Yeah, uncle, can you spend money at the Home and Garden Strea can? Yeah? Yeah, boy, he is going to be a rough da this guy. It's all right, buckle up. Someone's going to step up and be a daddy. According to the Economist, marrying your cousin is probably fine in most cases. What good news. Someone's going to step up and be a daddy god, Despite being illegal
in twenty five states. A new report in The Economist says that marrying your cousin is quote probably fine in most cases. I attracked her down. Oh ma o, good for your buddy. My it's only illegal in half of the states. Yep. That's terrifying. Well, I mean, do they really have to make a law? I suppose sex we do. Did any of you have awkwardness? If you have AT and T during the twelve hour outage yesterday? Not as bad as I think. No, I didn't either.
I made calls and text I don't under I was very confused. Everybody else is doing do this and do that. I'm going I'm not having any problems. What am I missing wi the whole time? I don't know? Probably, I mean I have Wi Fi set to on always. Am I not supposed to be doing that? No? No, I met like most people said that when they weren't on Wi Fi get work and they could get nothing. Okay, that makes more sense. Oh, I'd questioned you,
daddy. I wasn't sure either. Police in Seattle arrested a twenty eight year old man who stole about forty thousand dollars worth of Magic the Gathering cards from a warehouse. Oh nerd continues to happen, but keep poppling, like thirty five years. But even so, if you're a true thief, I wouldn't care what I stole if it was worth something or what's the difference between money, art, jewelry or cards. If the cards are worth a ton, target, it's cool. If it's cash and marked, though it's easier.
That is correct. But I assume there's a black market for selling art the same way there's a black market for selling things like high priced Magic The Gathering cards. You know what says they're both black mark. I I don't know what magic the Gathering. It's a strategy card game. It was. I mean, it's probably not popular. Is a strategy card game. It's like cards. We's like Dungeons and Dragons, but cards. A lot of Honestly, this is really weird to say this, but a lot of Magic The
Gathering nerds ended up transitioning into poker because of the game theory. David Williams is a big Magic the Gathering fan was a huge fan of that was he really yeah, that checks out about the initials game caller, it was like, h D d is and Dove can deserve to lose you name drop Dob and expect me to get you fifty nine to five. No, fanks, it is rigged. It I knew it. It might be. Uh. No, one in four Americans have dropped their phone, keys, wallet,
or purse in a public restroom toilets. There's five of us. Have any of you done it, marting your hands up. I flushed my phone. Excuse me? What was in Valley Sports North offices prior to where we are now, And the toilets flushed violently like it didn't swirl around and then go down. It was just a sucked it down there. And I had a like a hook, and I had such an abomination a small fire. But I was wearing a hoodie like this, and I had my flip phone.
So this was a good ten years ago. But I had my flip phone in my hoodie pocket, and so being a gal, I sat down naked, well body and when I stood up, so then I lean, you lean a little bit, and I flushed it and it fell out of my pocket and went and it was gone. And I contacted the building and maintenance and everybody was checking pipes and stuff. Nobody ever came up with it gone. Ye, I would have reached in and grabbed it, yeah, of
course, well, yeah, yeah, yes, dropped. I don't really It was a little more than a few years ago, so I don't exactly remember exactly how it got into the toilet, but yeah, I remember reaching in there and grabbing out quick. I think it was just an accidental like I went to throw something away in one hand and accidently threw my phone in the toilet too. Yeah, was that it clean? It was clean? Yeah, it was clean. I dropped my glasses in there. Didn't use
the phone again. By the way, I had like the end of my glasses like dangling out of my mouth, like from one of the like this. Oh yeah, yeah. I started singing, open your mouth and they went right in the toilet. But I put them right back on. Yeah, yesterday, you guys. No, no, and I'm on all the time. It is true. No, I never have Here's a dumb I is he about a month ago? Uh? You guys noticed that when you mentioned it a day or two ago. When I play cards, sometimes I
put my AirPods in even if I'm not listening to anything. I went to the bathroom during one of our breaks, and I forgot that I had them in my ears because I'm not listening to anything. I just have them on. We're in right. Well, I go to the bathroom and I sit down, not tipee, I'm not Chris Hockey at night. Uh. And one of them starts to like jiggle like a loose tooth and I'm like, if I if this thing, if I don't catch this thing when it falls,
it doesn't matter if it goes in the toilet. If this thing hits the floor, what do I do with it? If a tear pod hits the floor, Clark's wipe. Yeah, I'm more send it to hell. Hell yeah, and again for the last time. I know I've said this before, but man, it just I can't get over this. One of the good things temporarily that came out of COVID was everybody in public washed their hands right because it was you were You were violently shamed if you just went
right out of the bathroom. Yeah, clearly America is back to going I don't care about washing hands. Forget about COVID. I'm just talking about you. I just watched you walk out of the stall and we're gonna go play cards, and there's fifteen of us in the bathroom. All fourteen of us are watching you walk out wash your g D hands. God, it drives me nuts. Even the courtesy water. Yeah, if you're a lazy ass
and don't want to use the soap, can you at least rinse? At least I would feel better if you went to the sink and just mind it. Yeah, just don't walk right out. That's just giving all of us the middle finger. That's discussed. It's so gross because now you're shuffling chips. Eventually the goal is to get them from you. I don't want to touch your dirty fecal chips. Yeah, that's why d it's so gross. And they do them with like their head held high, not in shame,
with their head down like I got sneak out of here. It's just like, good luck everybody and the rest of the tournaments. What are you doing? That's me live in the bathroom? Dirty hands? Ah? Man, guys are the worst. Do women do that? Martins? Oh? Do all women wash their hands? Or do they sneak out to with their head down? I would say it's like an eighty percent to ninety percent situation that we do wash. What would you guys say in a in a public restaurant,
sixty do Yeah? I bet forty percent, don't I see it? I agree, Yeah, it's pretty common. I think it's over half due, but it's nowhere near eighty or ninety percent, especially just the urinals. I think there's a lot of guys are like, it's just the urinals. I'm just touching that for a second or two. We're fine. That's still gross. Yeah, it's gross. You know what I'm saying. You touched your wing. Yeah, if you go in the stall, it should be one hundred percent. Oh my god, yes, one hundred percent. I
would again I argue a urinal should also be one hundred percent. But my gosh, I just the fear of being judged and shame isn't higher if you're the only one in there and there was like a you know, secret camera and we're watching how many people what percent wash their hands when at least one other person is in there watching you, versus if it's just you. That's exactly that point is the COVID shame, right, we all you better wash
your hands and you're gonna get just ridiculed. Which made sense. We were all fighting the pandemic. Jesus, that fear of just the shame, forget the cleanliness. The shame factors out the window. We're back to pre pandemic again. Nobody cares. But there's still a judgment, and there was a judgment before it probably escalated to shame during COVID, but the judgment is still gone. So have you ever called anyone out? No, it's just in
my head. I'm just like I just I'm baffled by the decision to blatantly do it when we all we're all going back to the same place. It's not like you're at a gas station bathroom and it's you're gonna see You're going to disappear into somewhere in the United States of America. This is I might even be at the same table as you. I know exactly where you're going. Rosie doesn't wash his hands and he looks back over his shoulder and goes, buddy, I don't know who you are, You're about to get chlamydia.
How does Rosie say that? Because he thinks it's funny. Yeah, well he's have you Have you guys seen coworkers do that here at there's one very famous one who does the time. Do I know this, I don't know. I would take I see it. I see him do it all the time, an on air personference station on the fan different station. Oh, you do it proudly like I know you see me, But I know he just walks right out. I don't even think about it. Yeah either,
I guess I've never seen stall. But you're a journal straight out the door, straight out the door, all right again weird. It's a coworker, I know. And they are not even like they don't even think about it. I'm not going to high five m yep, brilliant. Yeah, that's funny, thank you. It's a way to finish. Not even close to the grossest thing that we talked about on the show and off the way, not even close. Martins, You're an American treasure. Tonight at Bally's
