No PT in the Morning

We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Well, no. This is true. You are right. I am not getting up for PT in the morning. That's not happening. The land But it will it fly you? No. No. That's just not gonna work.

Hey, man. Hello, and welcome to 2 grumpy vets. And, dude, I am your host, Brian Lyle here with the other 2 hosts. We got Rich and the dude, and we are talking about the aftermath this week. For sure, we're because last week, we were talking. It was during the debate. We were just kinda made some comments about the bait and our thoughts and all that. Yeah. Holy smokes, man. That turned into a dumpster fire and a half,

Well, going crazy. Going crazy, to be honest. Yeah. Yeah. Got some good news, all the way around. I'm back in a contract with the house down here, the 1 I looked at earlier and tried to go for. The sellers didn't wanna do it. So, but but this time, apparently, they were a little more a little more amenable in, everything. So, yeah. So so I'm back in the contract there, and then I found out, last night, I got an offer on my house up north. Uh-huh.

Right? There you go.

And and so I countered and they came back and, raised their raised their offer a little higher and I took it. So the paperwork is getting drawn up with that. So it sounds like within 2 weeks to well, 3 weeks maybe. Okay. I might I might be doing a lot of dag gum driving because I still I still gotta run up, get my stuff I'm getting out of the house Right.

Yeah. That too. All of a sudden, feels like it was 3 weeks ago and went just 2.

Right. Oh, god.

And and guess what? We gotta ask to come back again next year. Oh, there you go. And but but Adam got smart and moved it back to October.

Oh, thank god. Yeah. Maybe I'll be able to attend next time then because I wasn't about to go down there during July.

I'm crazy enough, and I'm gonna go down there during July. So Right. Right. Yeah. No. It was but, yeah, next year, it's October 9th through 12th. And so, yeah, we, yeah, Adam asked us to come back again, and we're we're like, hi. We didn't know. You know? Right. But, so, yeah, that that happened. And then, yeah. Like I said, I went into contract with the that 1 house I I looked at down here with the hardwood floors. So, man, it's gorgeous. God, big ass backyard.

So it's a second house?

Yeah. Yeah. The second house. Gotcha.

Gotcha.

And, and then, yeah, got an offer on mine, countered, and I accepted this offer. And my, my realtor up north is actually doing the paperwork right now to get everything rolling there. So, yeah. Once once we get that paperwork signed, then it's up to the title company to, you know, do their job. And after that, then it's closing. Right. And then of course we have our our tears event. And so, yeah, I'm not sure it's gonna be a juggling act for a minute, but it'll be a good 1. You know?

It ain't something out of anywhere. It's gonna be it's you're you're gonna be, you're gonna be mister homebody.

Yeah. Exactly. Because well, let's see. My house is a 1, 000 miles from here. And if I have to run up, get my stuff Is it really? Yeah. It's 993. God dang. Yeah. So so so if I have to run it before the event, that's 1, 000 miles up, load my stuff up 1, 000 miles back, and then, and then it's, like 8:60, I think, out to Oklahoma.

Trash your what?

Yes. Go ahead.

As far as your stuff in the house is concerned and trying to yeah. It's gonna be a juggling act to get that. Have you thought about getting a pod and just put everything in the pod and then have the pod obviously delivered down to Mississippi? But Right. Have it delivered once you close on the other house so you're not hapten to storage unit and, you know, drive the stuff down yourself. I know it may be I don't know what the cost difference is, but have you thought about getting oh, excuse me.

Yes. And a pod is anywhere between 1500 to $3, 000. Also, U Haul's about 800. And say, I don't have this other house yet, and I probably wouldn't have this other house before I closed on my house. So, and and I already have a storage unit. And I mean, I'm not getting, I mean, a 15 foot U Haul will hold everything that I'm putting out of my house. Everything else is staying. I'm getting I'm getting my personal stuff, the washer and dryer, my bed,

So the dish is What I'll what I'll stand?

My, convection oven, my Blackstone, my microwave, my refrigerator, dishes, a full set of dishes, and, let's see what else. Probably a few other things. I can't think off the top of my head, but but, yeah, a lot of the stuff is staying because all I have left after that is just my clothes and tubs. You know? My stuff. Tubs and stuff. So yeah. Because now and while my lawnmower's staying, my, my little trailer's staying

Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. So Was that was that part of the offer and everything with all those items?

That was my decision before anybody ever looked at it.

But the new homeowners are they already know that everything. All that stuff is gonna stay there?

Yes.

Okay.

Yeah. They yeah. Yeah. Because, in the lit it was it was put in the listing what was staying with the house. And so so that that stuff that stuff had had had had had already been stated before, anything had, you know, ever been talked about. Oh, okay. So so, yeah, that's that's what's happening on this end. Good. And and and and I still need to, find some time to shave. Haven't found 0. 0. 0, wait. Hang yeah. Oh, no. No. Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead.

Shave. It's not like you're getting up from PT in the morning.

Well, no. This is true. You are right. I am not getting up for PT in the morning. That's not happening. But, on well, no. No. No. That's just not gonna work. But but, see, I was gonna say,

I, resemble that remark.

No. It it it, was it was it yesterday? Yeah. It was yesterday. When I got up, shoot. I was on my phone from 8 o'clock because Breezy called me and wanted to video chat, or maybe that was this morning. That was this morning. Yesterday morning, Matt called me.

well, look at Brian. The the razors missed his face quite a few times. Oh, yeah. Yeah. For a while.

A lot. Razor is dot. I I I've dodged razors come flying at me. I'm like, oh. So Mhmm. No.

So, dude, what you been up to, man?

Man, I tell you what. My week was a dumpster fire. So last Friday, got the air conditioner serviced. Got some Freon put back in the system. Didn't know that the main drain or the condenser was clogged. So the main drain filled up, overflowed the condenser into the drip pan. The drip pan was not in the right spot that it was supposed to be in. But Sunday, I see I hear this tick noise. And how many times how many times do you look up and look at the ceiling?

Oh, no.

So, you know, with all the water that had been collected by the insulation and all that. The sheetrock just failed. And then I had a 4 foot roughly a 4 foot by 8 foot hole in my ceiling. You know, I'm looking at all my air conditioning ducting and all that. And I'm like so then I finally figured it had to redirect the main drain and do a well, it's an ugly fix, but at least it's fixed. Then an ugly patch to patch up a hole, with OSB plywood.

Well, okay. Let me ask you this. Did you put, did you put Freon in yourself, or did you have someone else do it?

No. I had it serviced by a by a company.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Let me ask this. Why didn't they clean out the drain?

They well, he couldn't find the plug, which is is understandable. The system is 35 years old.

Well, okay. I under I understand it, but but there's still a drain, man. And, I mean, they do this.

Yeah. They do. They do. He did, but we couldn't freaking find where the where the hell the drain was at. Well, once the the fucking catastrophe happened, I found

it. Well, yeah.

So and I'm not going to go back on that company for that because, you know, it it's my fault. So I, will take full brunt of responsibility. I'm not gonna go after them for that and not getting the drain line unplugged because I don't even know where the plug is at. It's some it's plugged up someplace where the drain line goes into the outside wall to where it drains outside. Mhmm. But I don't know where it's at. So I just

Well, that that is a good thing. Is your house cooler now?

A little bit. Not like I would like it at the current cost of electricity. But, yes, it is a little bit cooler, And this being a, what, 35 year old house, you know, the insulation is is starting to collapse. Yeah. Up in the ceiling, the blown insulation. It's not like it used to be when it was first blown in. And so there's some work I have to do on the house.

Right. Right.

But it's it's a little bit cooler enough to where at least I can get to sleep at night cool. And, you know, it gets to be about 80, 81 in the house with the air conditioner running. Again, it's an 1800 square foot house. So even though I have some of the doors and some of the vents closed for this not getting air conditioning, it's just it's just an older house, the windows, and everything else. Well, it is what it is. It is what it is.

I was gonna say that's that's the wrong way to get woke up if you ask me. So, yeah, I I would I would probably have a few choice words myself.

Yeah.

Especially with no coffee.

Yeah. No. I was not unfortunately, I was not able to come out into the living room, look at it, and go, damn. I wanna go get a cup of coffee. I probably should have. I probably should have because the damage was already done. Right. And it's like then at least sitting there looking at it, I would have had a cup of coffee sitting there looking at the hole going, you know, crying and saying all my fucking choice words and and cussing, screaming, and stomping and,

dude. I know. Coffee is the first thing, man. Come on. You know you know it as well as I do. Coffee is number 1. Everything else can wait. It

yeah. You're yes, you are absolutely correct. Everything else could wait. I I just I looked at it, and I was so pissed, for lack of a better word, that it's like, y'all coffee didn't even enter my mind. I'm like but now that I now that I think back on it, it's like, yeah. I should've just, like, looked at it, went and made a cup of coffee, made my coffee, sat down, sipped my coffee, and then looked back up again at the hole and go, how are we gonna get this shit fixed?

See, that's I mean, that's that's exactly what I would do because it's like, I'm sorry. No. It's just I gotta have my car. I my brain can't function. I mean, it was this morning when, when when a Breezy video chatted me. I had just I had been up maybe 5 minutes. I was still making coffee. And it says, like, shit. I don't wanna answer it, but I always answer when breezy

Well, you said you were already making coffee, so it probably was just the brewing time. Right. Yeah. Right?

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. But but, see, and, see, that's the thing is Breezy is about the only 1 that can Breezy, MJ, or me is about the only 1 that can get away with me talking to him before I've ever had any coffee.

Well, Steve, I can probably I can probably deal with you before coffee because I have dealt with you before coffee at, you know, at some of the other events, but, you know,

I'll just turn it over. I've never seen seen seen the dude with a tear in his eye when he walked away, but he did it.

No. But in the process of, talking to you in the morning without you having coffee, Yeah. By the time you get your coffee made, yeah, you need to get slapped.

Mhmm.

Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. You're you're right. Yeah. I I I know it, dude. I know it. I mean, I I mean and and that's the thing. Anybody that knows me, I tell them in ahead of time, do not talk to me without my coffee. When I at least a half a cup, give me a half a cup. And, and my brain starts to, whatever it starts to do in the morning. I, I don't even think that hard in the morning.

Yeah. Because, you know, when we were out there, it's like, you know, you wake up, good morning. Yeah. Kissed my ass. I haven't talked yet. Leave leave me the phone. Good morning. Bullshit. It ain't good until copy is served. That's right.

That's right.

And you Yeah. And, you know, I I'm the same way, but, you know, I have my, you know, my, kettle to heat the water, and I do my instant coffee. So I'm all ahead of you. You know? I'll have that half a cup of coffee done before you before you get yours poured.

Oh, yeah. Oh, I know that. I know that.

But I remember a couple of mornings that's like, you want some instant? Oh, hell yeah. It's already you've already got the you already got the, the water boiling? Oh, hell yeah. I'll just do instant.

Hey. I don't care if I'm scared. I ain't scared.

Yeah.

Okay. I'll worry about that later. So so Brian Well, at least at least that

is done, and then just work has been oh my god. Work has been just another nightmare dealing with what I have to deal with before I can even get on the road. Hell, I didn't even get on the road this morning until freaking almost noon.

Oh, wow.

Yeah. Mhmm.

That's crazy.

Yeah. It was. And I was I'm too happy. But, of course, waiting on other individuals that have well, we ain't gonna go there. I didn't leave until I didn't leave until almost freaking noon, and my 1 way trip was a little more than 2 and a half hours just to get to the branch. And then when I got to the branch today, they didn't even have anything ready.

Oh, wow.

Yes. That really sent me right over the edge. I bet. So I I looked at him and was like, well, I'm gonna go out and fuck I'm gonna go out front and I'm gonna have a cigarette. So you got y'all figure this out, and I'll get back with you.

There you go. It's the best way to do it. So, so Brian, why are you looking so perplexed?

Oh, help me with the I have just came across A picture. Okay. Well, what I was doing is I was looking around on the mail just seeing you know, trying to find something that it's, some of the different topics that, they won't might be able to talk about. Mhmm. And they were talking about Laura Flint Oil. Talking about what? And Beth Laura Flynn Boyle. She's from, Twin Peaks.

Twin Peaks. What? The restaurant? Sure. Okay. The thing that

no. The television. David Lynch's Twin Peaks.

Okay.

Never watched it, but go ahead. Just let you know, Brian yeah. Just to let you know, Brian, your video keeps freezing up.

Oh, does it? Yeah. It does. Yep. Hold on. Let's fix this. Let's do this right here and right here.

Yeah. I can't Here we go. And let me strike this over here. I can't say as I have ever watched the show.

Okay. Well, either way, really struck me was that they the top the the the headline is Laura Flynn Boyle, 54, makes rare comment about ex about her ex, Jack Nixon, who's 87, as reveals that they still keep in touch. And what really threw me is that Laura Flynn Boyle is only 3 years older than I am. And then I looked down at a picture of her, and it may not be the most flattering picture of her, I guess, because it's her straight on. Right. But she looks like she's about 62.

Yeah. You are.

Okay. So I know exactly what to do with this.

I'm, I'm, seeing a picture of her. Let's see here. Let's go. She's really nice looking, actually.

Oh, no. She's She's beautiful. When she was growing up, she was there. When she was younger, she was very beautiful, but, you know, I never knew she was only 3 years older than me. Right. And I was just going, no. Oh, she's not 3 years older than me? Apparently, yeah. Yeah. She's she's 53. I'm 51. Or she's, what, 50 yeah. Or 2 years older. I gotta do math sometime. She's 50 no. 54. Okay. 3 years. Yeah. So

Yeah. And she's she's,

Well, I think I've got 1 thing I want about.

And how old is Jack Nicholson, you said? So He's old. You said Jack Nicholson? Yeah. Okay.

80 some. 87.

87. So a what? A 34 or 32 year difference between them.

Okay.

Yeah. Look. Gerard Butler just, just found love again. That was the other thing that kinda caught me is that Gerard Butler, 54. He's also just, you know, at least he looks about our age.

Right.

And he's 54 also.

And, just to let y'all

just to let y'all know, if you have enough money, women will find you attractive because he apparently just landed a 25, a woman who is 25 years his younger bikini model, and she can't seem to do anything that doesn't have under boob involved.

Well, see, though, the thing is, though, look at the roles, Gerard Butler has played. I mean, put the money aside. And I mean, you know, I mean, wasn't he wasn't wasn't he 1 of the hot symbols, sex symbols for a year 1 time?

Well, he he played, lanatus in, in 300. He also was, I can't think of the name of the movie, but he played the, he was, he played a part that is actually very similar to what the what the lax male coaching is because I talk a lot about masculinity and stuff. And he was a very he they portrayed him as being kind of a kind of a chauvinistic style of of of a guy,

Well, I don't doubt that.

So I asked probably to go off, and I think I've still got a, a

But, yeah, he you know, you know, that's the thing. Yeah. Yeah. He does he does have a buttload of money, but also he also has the looks,

you know? Oh, yeah. He he definitely has the looks.

You know, I mean, I mean, I'm not saying that that that, you know, I'm just saying. I can see that Who was the 25 year old.

Gerard Butler. Yeah. They, yeah, I can't they go off and and keep you from being able to view anything on, daily mail if you put if you turn your ad blocker on. It's like, we file ads on our sites. It looks like you're using an ad blocker. We allow them to advertise to help fund our site. It's like

Well, it's well, it's either that or pay, like, $9 a month just to read, you know, read a newspaper, and it's like, yeah, ain't doing that. Yeah. Well You know? I I mean, yeah, the ads are very annoying. So so, Brian, what have you been doing this week?

This week, I have been getting ready to go to Amarillo is what I've been doing. So You're going to the big town of Armadillo?

Yep. Yep. What pray tell you you go to Armadillo?

I wanna hang out with the grandkid and watch fireworks. And son wanted me to run off about a $100 worth of fireworks from, from, Oklahoma, because he thinks that Oklahoma has got more powerful fireworks than Texas does. So I was like, alright. Well, that's your money, man. I'll I'll do what I want. Right. He made a mistake in not telling me what type of fireworks he got. So he's getting a big old glitter.

Yeah. No. You see. So are you guys are you guys gonna have a bottle rocket wars?

No. No. I mean, well, he's got we got some, Roman candles and and, Oh, so you're gonna have Roman candle fights? Well, I'll let them shoot Roman candles at each other. I'm not my, my my I'm getting old enough to where my my skin's getting a little crepey, and so I don't wanna go off and light up like a crepe, you know, like crepe paper at a, at the, at the Carrie prom. So Come on, Brian. Live a little too. No. I just don't wanna go.

No. No. That would be funny. Your your I'm sure you would find that funny. I I would. I would.

And we're and let's say we heard this loud poof all the way from Amarillo or Armadillo or Amarillo. It's like everybody was working around going, what the fuck was that poof sound?

That was What was that?

We'll know. I just went up in a flame of smell and puff a smoke. So, but how how, you know, all in all, nothing, nothing big's happening in in in my area. Just got, just working on some advertising and, trying to decide what, what direction I I really wanna go business wise. I mean, how do I wanna get the word out? I'm still I've got 1. I got 1 paying, 1 paying client. And Sweet. Oh, there there's that win.

So I've got

there's the offer. Which

which, which ads are you looking at doing? Like Facebook, Twitter, X?

5:30.

LinkedIn?

Oh, I'm I'm actually looking. Well, it's a combination of duct tape marketing or grill marketing. And, and then also.

You are leaving a legacy.

I am leaving them. And it's funny because, John, the guy I was talking about, he he, he's like going, well, I could tell where you stopped. He's like, why? He's like, because there's a style I'll be pulling up to a to a pump or something, and all of a sudden, there's a orange, relaxed mail sticker stuck on it. And there's once there but there's what's funny is there's 1 sticker that I that arrives

Well, put it on the front side of the pump, you know, on the stainless steel part.

Yeah. Don't. Nope. That's I've I've done it there. Nope. Poop. On the pump. A lot of times if it's right off to the side, but also if you can find a truck stop, that's a little bit older, but you really don't care as much. So, like, like, over in, Harold, Texas,

that's And only they're they're huge.

No. This 1 this 1 here is I mean, the store itself is a good size, but, there's only, like, just a little bit of parking. There's not much for so but I was like I walked up. I went to go use the bathroom, and I as I walked walking up, I realized, like, hey. There's a set of set of windows beside the door. You know, nothing really on there. There's at 1 spot is is often that hidden area. You gotta be paying attention. If you see it, it'll be great. So

Right.

15 seconds ads, 32nd ads, depends on what it is, but it's really inexpensive. You you put up a 15 second ad for, like, $25.

Oh, wow. And, so over, over what timeframe is that a month or yeah, yeah. $15

a month for 15 second ad per screen. So you want to put it on 1 screen. All right. It's $25, but it on 2, 2 screens. Okay. Then you'll get $50 that type of thing. So, and they've got several around it. So I'm really trying to, I'm trying to size, like, do I want to go on ahead and put together a little video ad, little 15 second video ad that will might entice people to, to try to or try to entice people to go over to to Relax Mail and and

And that's I mean, I mean, as long as you're not signing a contract for a year or 6 months. You know? I've actually I've used them a couple times, and I'll do it for a couple months and

and Right. And then stop, and I used it for, for above all home care whenever I was helping my friend, Burl. Right. Really? So now I mean, when you wanna quit, you just quit, and they're like, alright. Cool. And and they they just don't reupload your, your ad to the, to the television the following month. That's pretty cool.

Right. Right.

So I'm I'm broke, man. I understand that y'all y'all worked your ass off. But and, again, Google. Oh, but Google was such a wonderful tool that they had. It was. I

But but hold on. Hold on. You see, some of these software companies that there are, you know, like that AB testing that you're looking at, they want $99 a month. Okay. Yeah. They worked their ass off. But how much money did they spend getting that program wrote, you know, and all like this? And how many people do they have subscribed? So that's a $100 a month per person. Yeah. 10 people is a 1, 000. A 100 people is 10, 000. Mhmm. Okay? Yeah. I mean,

Man, they it's been way too way too I mean, they've been paid plenty of times. Now am I is it,

Well, see, this is the thing. Go because because back in the early days of the Internet and all the way up into the 2000, you could pay 1 time by a software and boom. You you had the software and you had updates. And then they slowly started going to this subscription as a service, which is like everything now. I mean, shit. I'm I'm shocked. I'm shocked. You know, they don't they don't have public restrooms as subscription as a service.

I think, man, someone just someone just heard it when, like Right. Why don't we not think of it? Alright. Yeah. We can set that up. We can just I've got an app we could make. We could make the app, and then you just hold your Right. RFID tag on there, and then just read. Well Connects to the Apple Wallet. Boom. You're good.

Okay. What's up what's up with, like, fucking McDonald's and and and Burger King and all these others that that that now have mobile apps. What the hell is that for?

It's like you're you're Actually, it's, it is to track you. Yeah. Exactly what it's. They wanna know where does it go? And they, you know, everything that they, when, you know, when everybody was talking about the, about the TikTok band, they know too much about you. They know they know less about you than what Facebook knows. They know less about you than what

McDonald's.

But no, I mean like the McDonald's app, the subway app, the Wendy's app, the burger king burger king app, Arby's app. Sonic app.

Yeah. C. C.

C. And They all know, hey, he's traveled over here. Every time he goes home, he likes to order a big old large pizza when you know, every Friday so he gets home. So we know we can actually advertise them to to him then, which makes again, makes no sense. Why are you spending money on somebody that you already know is going to buy crap from you every Friday? They just want more money. Well, I know, but again, there, but to, to want more money, but, and maybe that's just me, the broke man talking.

But but now you see, that's the thing.

They wanna keep everything in your mind so you're always thinking about it. Well, then I get that. That's I mean, stay on top of your mind. That is the branding

advertising. That's the Well, yeah. I understand that. But still, I say no. No. Because when when I roll up to Burger King or or, McDonald's, first thing they ask, you use an app? Fuck no. Hell no. I'm gonna order my food off the menu like a, like a regular human being. Oh, and and they they You get to interact with a human there. Oh my god. Yeah. Right? You know? And and and the thing is they, they are freaking trying to say, oh, you'll get special discounts. Yeah. A small freaking fry.

Yeah. Get a small fry and a yep.

Buy a, buy a hamburger and you get a small fry. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. You know, a small fry is what? A dollar, what, 79 now? I can't remember.

That

was all. Too damn much. Well, yeah. No. It is. It is. But yeah. No. So it's like it's like, yeah. I don't I don't freaking do them apps. I can't stand them apps. It's like it's like you said, yeah. Yeah. It's freaking another way for them to track you And and, gear, adds, you know, to to what they want you to see. Right. It's like, no. I don't like that. I am. Hey. I learned something. Uh-oh. I learned something.

Well, I'm sure why were you putting your tablet in the bathtub?

Well, I, did put it in the bathtub, up at Stubborn. When we were up there, I had my tablet, and I say I had my bible, I had my tablet, I had a few other things. Well, they was on the floor behind mess behind the driver's seat. Okay. And I knew they were there. Totally spaced it all out. And then I went to the river. Oh. And got the floorboard of my Jeep. Just, I mean, I'm talking like inch and a half, 2 inch of water

Oh, can't see it. Nope. Nope. Oh, hang on. It blends in with the background.

Hang on. Let me, turn my background off. No. I don't wanna why do why do I always have to figure this out? Yeah. That should be it. Because

you old.

Right. So, yeah, I got this. This is this this is a, Samsung Galaxy, a 7 s or FE

Okay.

Tab. And, believe it or not, it's used. It was refurbished, by the Geek Squad. And Okay. They had it for sale for, like, $400 off what it normally is. There you go. So yeah. But but yeah. So so I got a tablet again. And, but, yeah, this 1 this 1 I'm gonna And is it Go ahead, dude.

Does that 1 can you put a SIM card in it for a phone number for your, or do you have or do you do Wi Fi on it?

I, actually, I do Wi Fi on it, but you see with with, Samsung products, if you have a Samsung phone, you can actually tie your Samsung phone to this tablet and basically operate it as a big ass phone.

Oh, there you go. Oh, okay. Yeah. I don't have a Samsung phone, so I'm not gonna buy a Samsung tablet.

Well, I mean I mean, you don't need I mean, because this this runs on Android anyways. So so I just use the I just use the Wi Fi or my mobile hotspot on my phone, and, I can still get online and, you know, do things that I need to do. Because sometimes, you know, if I'm out and about it and I have to sign papers for, you know, house, you know, house deal shit, and I don't have to wait till I get home and trying to look at my screen and read the information. No.

Well, that'll definitely come in that'll definitely come in handy when you're using it, for a navigational tool in a Jeep. That's for damn sure. Yeah. You just gotta fucking buy a you just gotta find a big enough bracket holder to hold it.

Right. Right.

That is And they're out there though. Best place to look for them is over at a truck stop.

Really?

Thank you. You can find them at a truck stop. Because a lot of truckers will actually use it for their, their e logs.

Yeah. But yeah. No. This 1 this 1 here is GPS enabled. So, yeah, it doesn't it doesn't need a phone. It's I I can I can hit Google Maps, bring it up, and it's like, damn? But but yeah. No. No. I got I got this 1 because my other 1 when I saw it died, it's like, shit. I actually really need 1 now. So that's why I got this 1. Well

So are you able you able to pull up any of your, stuff out of the old, tablet, though? No. I can't.

I can't. Won't even turn on, dude.

Oh, okay. I mean, that's so much yeah. Right. Well, it it,

freaking won't even charge. I mean, I tried because because before I even tried to, turn it on, I plugged it into the charger, you know. And yeah. No. It yeah. Screen said nothing. I tried turning it on, and I've tried it 2 or 3 different times. Yeah. It it's done for. It's a paperweight is all it is.

Officially been bricked.

Yep. Yep. And so yeah. Next time, I'm gonna make sure it's not in the floorboard. I mean, I didn't lose much stuff on there because, you know, I didn't have much stuff, but I did I did lose a few things. But nothing major because I had backed up a lot of my stuff.

Oh, okay.

Yeah. Yeah. This I've I've gotten I've gotten in the habit of that because let's say my phone, right? My old phone, the the, back was cracked and, actually, the other day, it was acting up. Right? And so I was right in Pascagoula, and I'm like, well, let me go to the Verizon store because the phone was, you know, the phone service was just shitty. And so I went in there and I was asking him. He's like, dude, I can already tell you.

It was Or how far of a distance?

2, 3 miles.

Wow.

Yeah. Yeah. Because, when I went to the Verizon store, I was just on the north side of 90. They were, they were fine. Phone worked great. And, but but but but when you got south of 90, and I like that, yo, yeah. No. It it was it was done. So so I was like, okay. But, you know, with the back cracked and all like that, it's like, you know what? I'll go ahead pay a $100, get a new phone. And I got the same phone as I had before.

My contacts are all Google contacts. Mhmm. So that's I put everything everything up there. The my pictures go up. I've I get a I do a Google subscription so I can put all my pictures up on on the Google, on the Google Photos, and then I mean, it it's all it's all on the cloud. Now my so many times my daughter and my son, they're like going, I don't wanna do that because then I have to start trying to figure out who all the phone numbers are. It's like post it up on the

So Right. Well, and and see and see, this is the thing. At first, when when the cloud services came out, I was like, oh, hell no. Uh-uh. No. Well, I loved it. I knew exactly what that what good that was. Oh, no. I no. I see see. I didn't trust it. And then finally, I I tried Dropbox and then Google Drive and all like that. And I'd I'd keep couple files up there and then found out I could access some other. And I was like, okay. Alright. I could deal with this.

Right?

I'm sorry. But, yeah, that's because, yeah, if a strange number comes in to me, it's like, I'm not gonna answer you, you know, you know, unless you say, you know, Richard or something, then yeah, okay. I'll be like, but, yeah, other than that, it's it's, yeah, I've gotten used to the cloud, so I I don't mind doing the cloud thing.

Yeah. It's, I've gotten, like I said, I've gotten around to where I really enjoy everything the cloud does. May and that's just because I I used to be 1 of those who could who was just all about the technology, and I would try everything out out that was brand new. I mean, if it's if it's closer to bleeding edge, I was gonna try it. Mhmm. Willing to just ignore any type of pain that would be involved with it. That was 1 of those where I had I had my, a, a calendar setting put in, in once a year.

Yeah. No. And, see, that's the thing. You know, when you know, this was a new phone. This tablet was set to fact, you know, back to factory.

Uh-huh.

Trying to set all that shit up, and then, of course, field phone calls and text messages and all this and and emails. It's like, I I just I wanted to break something.

I really did.

Yeah. Because it it was like it was like people. Yeah. And okay. Check this out. Normally, my phone don't ring. Right. It I don't get no emails. No 1 wants to talk to me. But it seems like when I'm trying to do something,

oh, hell no. Oh, yeah. The whole world wants to call me. Yeah. All of a sudden. Yeah. You could be as long as you're, long as you're sitting around doing nothing, no 1 cares to talk to you. Soon as you get something that's really important. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Oh, my God. The world's come to an end. I mean, well, that's like my, I finally got my daughter, trained on it that, especially at, from Saturdays, 8 o'clock in the morning about 11 o'clock.

Right. Well, that's like that's like this evening, just just before we started, Breezy was texting me, asking me if, come on. Are you busy? I'm like, I I feel bad because normally, you know, at this time of night, I could talk to her. I'm like, yes, honey. I'm busy. I'm podcasting tonight. Okay. I was gonna show you something I was building. I'm like, oh, fuck. You know, it's like it's like, you kill them here, sweetheart.

You got that manipulation done. She's like going, oh, let's let's turn that heart just a little bit right there.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She could do it. I'd I'd tell you what. She could do it. So, yeah, I'll probably hear from her, first thing in the morning. So because, I I told her to call me, but yeah. No. It's it's funny. When I want people to call or or bug me or interrupt me, nope, don't happen.

So it's, it's That's the same way. I mean, especially, and especially if I'm in a crunch where I'm like, you know, I've got like 2 hours before, podcast is supposed to go out and I just realized I forgot to throw something up And I'm like, oh, shit. I better get this all to ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Text messages going off. It's like, what? What you got? I'm try I've got stuff I've gotta do. Can't do that. Ding ding ding. Right. It's like, son of a bitch. Goddamn, man. Quit that.

Right. Right.

Why is the world gotta burn when I'm busy?

I know. It's dude, I feel you, man. I feel you're paid, brother.

And I I and it might be just a touch of you know, I'm I'm not ever been diagnosed with ADHD, and I'm not ever going to be 1 who goes off and says, you know, my ADHD just causes all sorts of problems because 1 no. A lot of times, it's just you happen to not be whatever it was that you got distracted by just means whatever you got distracted by was more important to you than the thing that drew you away than what you were drawn away from. Right. With ADHD.

look at a girl in a bikini and go, damn.

I'm and I I've known a few. I've known quite a few. And they're but they're they're few and far between, especially if the if you're married to them, then you're gonna go, why are you like that? Except for the time that whenever I was we were in, San Diego and had just gotten her mood, and we had been married for a while. Well, see, I got married, went off to Westpac, came back. So it's been about, we'd been married about 9 months, but hadn't actually lived together yet.

That that kind of sounds familiar.

So, yeah. Yeah. Grocery stores. This is a place where there's a bunch of groceries. Amazing. What what that is. No. No. Amazing stuff. Just a great idea to call it a grocery store and actually have groceries there. It's No. I mean, Von's,

the name.

Yeah. But oh my god. Anyhow, so we were we were in there. We're doing some doing some shopping and, getting stuff. And this girl walks in with you can tell she's it has to have been a stripper just because of how her her schoolgirl outfit was designed. And I was just a dumb guy. I walked past with to to to to to to to. And about that time, my wife was standing over beside over on that side that I looked and all of a sudden I looked over there and she looked at me and went busted.

Now I just said, damn, you're beautiful, honey. I mean, you still would have been busted, but I

just figured it was just better just to go ahead and pass up to the fact that, yeah, I was looking at the girl, that the stripper in the school girl girl outfit and, yep, just bite the bite the bullet. So

Well, yeah. The yeah. It is it is it is normally better to just admit it upfront than trying to hide it. You know?

Bullshit. I called bullshit. Oh, no. No. So

But, yeah, I I I I know what you're talking about. Hey. There's a title.

Bullshit. I call bullshit.

There you go.

I like that.

Well, except for the fact that there is an ex split of in there. And, some of the, some of the the We'll spell it wrong.

Put it put a freaking asterisk. Bacon sandwich. B s No. You know, this is what this is this is what irks the shit out of me. And, yes, I'm gonna use an expletive or 2 is is is a fact that that that we have to worry about how we spell our titles and shit. I I give 2 shits.

Oh, you in all reality, you don't. Unless but at the same time, you do you have to weigh out your options. Right?

Okay. What options?

Well, what are our options? Displayed in Apple podcast directory, or you can choose to not be, displayed. You Who's the number 1 who's the number 1 directory that most people find their, their, their podcasts in.

Go ahead and click.

You mean to say that that apple will kick your episode out if it has cuss words in it?

Yeah. No, it, they can kick your, like 1, they can drop your podcast if your, if your title has expletives in it.

Yes. Really?

Now they can also drop it if you happen to have your podcast marked as clean and you're cussing a lot.

They'll drop you for that also. Oh, I see. That's why that's why I mark everyone. No. This is not clean. Well yeah. And the the only most of them are. And, I mean, we don't we don't cuss that bad, but still, I I I I I know 1 of us, 1 of us 3 is gonna say at least 1 cuss word Yeah. We're gonna every week. From the phone. Say big green donkey dick somewhere along the way. So there we go. We got it out of the way. So

why why is it gotta be green?

Peach. Why is it gotta be green? Purple is purple is just a weird fucking color, man. Oh.

And and, dude, and, dude, that's coming from a navy guy. I couldn't pass that 1 up, man. That was that was perfect. But no. But also but the ramification

of us being a being a, being a a a show that has cuss words in it. And with that, we marked ourselves as having, oh, crap. I keep wanting to say dirty words. He said a dirty word. He said a dirty what? I can't think of what the, anyhow, the settings Expletives. Expletives. Because we have our settings set to dirty word mode there we go. There's there's the show title, dirty word mode.

Now, you know, them fuckers over in India cuss, just like we do. Oh, yeah. And I've got a, I've got a ringtone

of the 1 of the the 2 it's actually from a road rage incident where where 2 Indian dudes get together and you bloody bloody you bloody bastard butter bloody bastard bastard. Bloody you you blood bloody you bastard. Buster bastard black. Bloody bloody man. You bloody man. You know? And they're just going at each other, and I've got that as a as a as a ringtone just because it cracks me up every time because Right. It's fun.

But still, you see you see, I I don't I don't freaking, I don't know this. So so, apple apple is liberal.

What side of the coast, what side of the world are they on? They're on the west coast. So yeah.

I I mean, I I I mean, I was I was kinda hoping They would have some sort

of burn. No. No. No. No. Okay. They are At least they are very beholden to

to, making sure Well quote unquote, I am safe. So

Yeah. I see. Yeah. Woke.

Well, and that's what it is. I mean and a lot of people are starting to realize exactly how Horrible. The whole concept of brand safe is.

Okay. That's fine. But are they gonna do anything about

it? Well, yeah, that's a lot of companies actually will turn to these brand. I was trying to say brand safe, evaluators. I think it's You know, there's so funny. You you know, this brand shield. Yeah. Brand shield is 1, things like that. But what it is is they actually will go out and sadly they, they take shortcuts. So what is considered quote unquote brand safe is varies tremendously. I mean, I know we're not brand safe. I mean, we are not, we're gonna say everything that's,

Thank freaking god. I like I like breathing, dude. I mean, it's bad enough I've got a CPAP machine at night.

So, Brian, you are 1 of those that they have on the the TikTok that, here's a Taco Bell commercial, and their butt is where the, blowout is for, the sewer system.

Yeah.

I don't think that's a visual I needed, but I don't think. Yeah. For for everyone on the audio side of the podcast, thank God you didn't get to see that visual. Yeah. Sometimes sometimes I forget when we're doing these that that we have to explain some of the things for the audio side. You know? I'd totally space them.

So your friends,

not what it is. It's not evaluator. It's auditors. But see but see, that's the thing. You know? You know, back in when when we was growing up in the thirties, forties, fifties, sixties, I mean, we never had to worry about that. So so why are we catering to the few percent or the few minuscule of a percent that are bitching about it.

Because The squeakiest wheel or the squeakiest wheel gets the most grease. Well, it there is that. But the big part the big dish issue is, 1, it actually doesn't affect us. This is why we get ridicule and mock and talk shit about it. Well, no. I know. But but the thing is We are not brand brand safe, but the problem that the issue is is the 1 reason why we have gone to podcasting advertisement. And if you're, go watch any type any, any YouTube video these days. They're not going to say porn

Right. Right. But but okay. Hang on. Hang on. Back in the sixties seventies at the height of of advertising, how did we get away with all the innuendos and sexual connotations? That's the that's how they did it, was with the innuendos.

Right. Back then, you couldn't even talk about a you saw who was it? I think it was in the Dick Van Dyke show when Mary Tyler Moore was pregnant. Yeah. We actually never saw her pregnant. Or no. No. It was Lucille Ball. You never saw Lucille Ball actually pregnant because you couldn't even mention it was considered rude, and it was considered very, uncouth to talk about a woman being pregnant. Why? Because how did she get pregnant in the first place?

Okay. But okay. The Brady slept What's that, dude? The Brady slept in the same bed. Yeah. But but the monsters were actually before the Brady Bunch. But seems Oh, yeah. That's true. Thing is though, but but you know, once you hit the late sixties and then the seventies, that all kinda started going away.

Seventies, yeah. It started to started drift away. And I mean, you had a lot of a lot of fairly risque jokes. I mean, even in the old days, you had very risky jokes. I mean, Groucho Marx famously got into a lot of trouble once because he was, I forget what his name of his show was. It's, he had a kind of a game show type thing that he did for a while. Smothers? No. It's not Smothers Brothers. No. It's not Smothers Brothers. It's Gratow Marks. Because, he

And he your life.

Something like that, probably. Yeah. And he would he would pull he started talking to this 1 lady and she was talking about how she had something like 6, 7 kids. And she was pregnant still. And, and he's like, wow. You must be really tired. And she was like, yeah. Yeah. He's like, well, I really love my husband. And he said, well, I really love my cigar, but I take it out from time to time.

You you cannot laugh. I'm sorry. You can't. I mean,

I love my cigar, but I take it out from time to time, you know, every once in a while. You know? And so my god. And, yeah, he got he got, taken off the air for that. But and so, I mean, cancel late canceling doesn't always is not a new thing in society. It's just Well, no. But right that it's happening. And because but yes. Podcasting is 1 of those great mediums because we have taken the gatekeeper of media.

For $7. For $7. You know, I hey. No judgment here. No judgment.

But any some of the ads on there are just mind blowing. We got 1 that's for it's 4 for a guy who has a, who has what's called bit nail syndrome. All right. And that's when, when their pecker isn't straight up and down, it curves off real sharp off to the left or off to the right or down or up. And, you know, it's tough.

Yeah. It's Peyronie's disease.

Peyronie's disease. Peyronie's disease. Not prions. Pions are are protein in your brain.

But Priones

disease. Yeah. I think it's something like that. Yeah. But any so they've got a they they have a ad, but it's a bit carrot. And so they it's all these carrots are around, and they're all cranked off on the end of fucked up directions. And I'm looking at my wife going, what in the hell? And this should do after that, it'll come up and there'll be something about women's hoo hoo hoo. And and it's just like,

Right.

Through 3 hours worth of show.

Well, the thing is, though, is that was in his contract with Spotify that that he had to do that. And see, that's that's why was him doing the ad reads instead of going, and now and I I work for my sponsor. I'm, you know, going off listening to something about food. Well, well, see, that's the thing. Ad reads, I can I can stomach ad reads by the host better than I can just a straight up ad? Oh, yeah. You know? Oh, I can too.

Until that host goes off and records his ad read. And then he just takes that ad read and puts it in every single, every single episode. So you hear the, Hey, do you have dirty underwear? Hey, do you have dirty underwear? Hey, do you have dirty underwear? It's like, God dang, man. Come on. Just put a little extra put a little thought into it. Yeah. Alright. Yeah. You've checked off all the boxes. I could tell when you do that. You're almost I can almost hear the check mark going.

Well, that was we'll see. That's why that's why, you know, if I hear that in a podcast, I don't care what the content is. Guess what? I'm not going to listen. Oh, no. I'll fast forward. Especially if I go, I go click. I go find another podcast. That's 1 of the glories of,

thing ads, or podcasts, platforms like, overcast, podcast guru and cast O Matic. You can actually, at the beginning of the show, if you know, they put 2 minutes worth of ads in there, you could actually automatically make it skip 2 minutes worth of the show. It's very whew. It's off. It's over on the starting there and right around that area, you'll catch it. I had a, I love the show. Love the guy who does it, but for whatever reason, he likes to play the whole damn song of of a,

like Well, no. We'll we'll see. You see, that's the thing though. You know, if it's, I mean, I'll just I'll just find other podcasts. I won't I won't I won't work that hard because there there are so many podcasts out there in in all different, genres of, you know, topics except for roller skating,

dude. Yeah. I mean, somebody I I I think Someone someone really needs to talk to me. If they they that likes roller skating. It's very fun as roller skating. You know? And I bet you, if he was to ask to find the right person, he could probably even get, get popcorn to be his title song. I I bet you have the record label.

You know what? I love popcorn. You know, who what's the name of the group that made popcorn?

We've looked it up, but it's been so long ago. I can't remember.

Hot butter.

Hot butter.

Really? Hot butter?

Hot butter is the name of the group that made popcorn. See, dude. You can And here's another thing with popcorn. Mhmm. When I was in 5th grade, 4th grade, we had that song as our song for when you do when you're in school, you do an act. What the hell is that called? No. What? Shit. A play? No. Not a play. It's where a whole you know, different people, they have different acts or different whatever. Variety show. Talent contest. Not a variety show. Fuckin' a

Uh-huh.

There was 5 of us with a wax paper comb combs singing to popcorn. I will that is the 1 thing in my life that I will never forget is that talent show.

That's funny.

And, yeah, it was and I got that on my my, what the hell is that channel? Hold on just a second. My YouTube music? Oh, yeah. I got 3 different, I got 3 different variances of popcorn. Do you know that they have a, or synthesizer version of popcorn?

I'm sure. Yeah. Did not know that. It

it is badass. You need to look up on YouTube popcorn, and there are several different variances, but there is 1 that is a synthesizer that is a good fucking rendition of popcorn. Yep.

I see that's the thing, you know, check check with the band, Hot Butter, and see if you could use it. You could use that as your intro and your outro for your podcast, man.

Yeah. That's you try now trying to find them, that's a different story. Gotta remember, we we used that song in in 5th grade, and I'm 55. Yeah. But, yeah, that's all for you to call.

Just to let you know, I was looking it up, and I came I was looking around, and the original popcorn song was actually written and released in 1969 by Gershon Kingsley for the album Music TO Moog by. Music TO Moog? Moog, m o 0 g, Moog.

Okay.

No. We're not we're all we all know from 72 when, when it was, in 72, a rearranged version of the instrumental was recorded by the Kingsley's First Moog Quartet, which was intended, for the namesake album 1st Moog Quartet, which was, had been otherwise rereleased in 1970. So, apparently, I guess it didn't take off in 69, so they tried it again in 70. And then in 72,

Well, I I I Okay. So talking so talking about songs that have been remade by various, bands, You guys know the song Personal Jesus by

Depeche Mode. Oh, yes. No. Never heard it.

Okay. Where is that?

What? Really. Never heard it.

Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode. Look it up. Okay. You'll like. You'll like that song. There's You know how many people you know how many people sung it before Depeche Mode? Nope.

9. Oh, what?

Yep. And Johnny Cash was 1 of those 9.

Well, it was covered by Johnny Cash in 2002. Marilyn Manson did in 2004, Def Leppard bid did it in 2018, Iggy Pop, and Phoebe Lunny Looney in 2023. But, yeah, it started out it started out as, Depeche Mode was the original, was the original creator in 2009.

No. It wasn't. Is that what it says, that the Depeche Mode was the original creator of that?

Let's see here. The background of the composition. Depachevo

took it from somebody else.

K. See, the background of the composition in 8 in 9 mid 1989, band began recording in Milan with the rec record producer Flood. The results of this session was a single personal was the single personal Jesus, which featured featured a catchy bluesy rift and a drum based sound, radically different from anything the band had released so far. Although not the 1st Depeche Mode song to feature guitar parts behind the wheel and the cover of Route 66 featured, guitar

Saying is And I like and I like Marilyn Manson's version.

Yeah. No. It's not a horrendous. It's not a bad 1. I've, it I'm very there's, I mean, I liked early Marilyn Manson stuff.

You know I like his from his Yeah. Children. Yeah. There's a couple of songs I like of Marilyn Manson, but the 3 that I like most are the ones that he did that he remade. Yeah. Purple Jesus being 1. Sweet Dreams Friday, another 1? Sweet Dreams. Yep. And then there was another 1 from another eighties band that he did a remake of, but I don't remember the name of the song off the top of my head.

See, the track listings. Yeah. So but yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There's weekly charts. Denmark, it made up to made it up to 8. No. You, UK Rock and Metal was, made it to number 2. So and that was when weekly charts, year end charts. So

so what you're doing what what eventually or so what the overall aspect was is you want me to make a podcast, roller skating.

I still think we wanna. Yeah. Dude, we've only been talking about it, what, 6, 8 months now? Hell yeah, dude. Heard that. We've been for a couple years.

Yeah. Something like that.

Dude, you would do you would do good at that.

Find the old, roller skating stars, Start talking to all the all the, old roller derby girls.

Go around and get friends.

Bring up the movie Xanadu.

Xanadu? Good god, Xanadu. I I thought you were gonna mention, like, roller babies or something. So or solar babies. That's not what it is.

You could go to different roller skating rinks and interview them?

Yep. I mean,

a lot of things you could do, and believe me, I I I bet you word spreads like wildfire, you'd wind up with quite a few people listening.

Or even oh, here you go. Yeah. There then there's the, the ever popular and insanely great romantic comedy roller boogie From 1979?

I I was I I by the title, I was thinking it was mid to late seventies.

I'm getting let's see here. Where's the, cast? Who's all in here? Oh, Linda Blair was in it.

Really?

Like Terry Berkeley. And Jim Bray was Bobby James. Beverly Garland played Lillian Barclay, and Kimberly Beck, Lana. Albert Encinia was Gordo. Sean McClory was Jammer Delaney. Let's see here. Stoney Jackson, MG Kelly. And that's not the machine gun Kelly that everyone thinks that we're talking about. Right. Axle Rod, Roger Perry, James Van Patten, and Mark Goddard.

That's that, that sounds like the, top 10 of of of the B listers.

I was gonna say, man, that that will take the cheese needle and snap it off. Right.

I mean, yeah. I, yeah, I'd never heard of that movie either.

I love 1 of the best things about IMDB is their trivia sections for all the different, movies. Linda Blair actually had 2 stunt doubles. She also did some of the skating, developed bursitis in her hip. Look like look like you're having fun. I'm tired.

Well, I guess, yeah, no big time soon. Right.

Movie is also listed among the, 100 most enjoyable bad movies ever made in golden raspberry award founder John Wilson's book, the official Razzies movie guide.

Okay. You lost me. Well, what was all that? Okay. Simplify.

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The movie is listed as about the 100 most enjoyably bad movies ever made. Okay. And and these and it's actually listed in the official Razzie movie guide. So the Razzies are the, the bad movie awards. So kinda like the Oscars, but but

But the Razzies.
