It is time believe your worries outside and laugh with

4
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:18.640
us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley, along with Trey

5
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:25.120
Trenholm and our very own Jerry Caldwell. I gotta admit,

6
00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:31.039
I have to admit to you, guys, I am completely

7
00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:35.079
overwhelmed today. There is so much to talk about. I

8
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:38.479
hardly know where to start. I know where I'm going

9
00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:47.840
to start, but there's so much. I mean, I thought

10
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:49.799
the day was going to be good when I saw

11
00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:52.520
last night going to bed some guy in China who

12
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:55.159
got his head stuck in an animatronic dinosaur.

13
00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:03.000
Yeah, but then the news just kept pumping out Overnight.

14
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:09.799
I saw a video of doctor Oz on Trump Junior's

15
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:14.120
podcast talking about how the president thinks diet soda kills cancer.

16
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:20.280
I got feet picks for tips from Uber Eats drivers.

17
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:24.239
Baby Jessica was pulled out of that well and beat

18
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:26.560
the ever love and piss out of her husband apparently.

19
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:31.519
And there's some guy named Clavicular.

20
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:34.840
And I don't know if that's intentional or he just

21
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:39.200
misspelled clavical because he's that stupid. But he's the looksmaxing

22
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:42.200
influencer who's best known, I believe for telling people to

23
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:44.239
tap your face with a hammer to look better.

24
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:55.319
He's having a rough week. I bet so, Trey. Do

25
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:57.560
you know who Clavicular is?

26
00:01:58.159 --> 00:01:58.560
I do not.

27
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:13.919
Clavicular is the looks maxing influencer who just.

28
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:20.360
Jesus Like two days ago, a snippet of an interview

29
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:25.759
from sixty Minutes Australia. Okay, this is I'm just gonna

30
00:02:25.759 --> 00:02:29.159
play this point. This went viral a couple of days ago.

31
00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:34.080
This is Clivicular during an interview sixty Minutes Australia.

32
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:39.000
It was obviously its own created body and sell community.

33
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:41.960
How do you feel about being linked to that group.

34
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:44.800
I'm not linked to that group in any way. Looks

35
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:50.479
Maxing is self improvement, right, So it's about potentially even

36
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:54.159
ascending out of that category, and so that's that would

37
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:57.199
be kind of one of the goals is to disassociate

38
00:02:57.240 --> 00:02:59.520
from being a hint sell and overcome that.

39
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:06.240
You also maintain you've been seen with certain people who

40
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:11.000
are from all parts of that world. I mean, just

41
00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:15.879
as an example, you've obviously shared company with Andrew Tait

42
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:22.159
and other dare I say, rather controversial figures. Why do

43
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:24.639
you spend time with people like that?

44
00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:29.120
Are you trying to I see you want to make

45
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:30.800
this political.

46
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:33.800
Not at all, not at all. I'm just curious that's

47
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:35.520
what you want to do. Is No, you know you're

48
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:37.879
not at all, not at all, not at all. I'm

49
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:43.319
not and talk about I'm just curious, no, not at all.

50
00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:45.360
I don't care about your politics. I know you're not political,

51
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:49.000
You've said that repeatedly. I'm just when you get seen

52
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:51.759
with those people, obviously, people make assumptions. I'm wondering what

53
00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:55.000
the thought process and motivation for your.

54
00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:59.000
I guess you watch the Peers interview, too bad. I

55
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.199
didn't have time to look into you know anything about

56
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:07.479
potentially uh you know who's who your wife cheated with.

57
00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:10.520
But don't try to go down that line of questioning

58
00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:13.759
uh with me, all right, because.

59
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:18.360
I'm not doing any political I'm all married. But I

60
00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:21.439
I was simply only ask you because with these people

61
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:22.839
so I.

62
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:24.480
Could, uh, I could teach you about looks Max and

63
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:27.399
then maybe you could switch that up. But thanks for

64
00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:29.560
thanks for the time, appreciate the interview.

65
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:32.920
All right, Jesus Christ.

66
00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:35.759
As many people have said, if you're going to be

67
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:38.120
this much into looks maxing. Perhaps you should get into

68
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:43.519
some books maxing, learn maxing talk maxing might be beneficial.

69
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:48.959
Maybe don't hit yourself in the head with a hammer

70
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:50.399
so much and you'll be able to answer just a

71
00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:53.560
straightforward question, what.

72
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:58.639
I don't understand about that thing? And clearly just I

73
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:02.240
don't know, not that smarter a what But he said,

74
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:03.920
I don't want to get political, guy says I'm not.

75
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:05.600
All you had to say is I don't want to

76
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:09.399
answer that question, move on whatever. And but and say

77
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:11.920
he's the one who kept seeming like going back to it.

78
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:17.199
Yeah, And and so he.

79
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:19.920
Hits himself in the face with a hammer to make

80
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:21.319
his looks better. Yeah.

81
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:23.519
I think we talked about that a couple of months ago.

82
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.079
I think he's at the forefront of that where the

83
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:28.480
idea is you take the hammer and you smash your

84
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:31.319
cheek bones a little bit to make them, you know, more.

85
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.160
Esthetically pleasing slash pronounced.

86
00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:39.560
What happens when you hit it too hard and you

87
00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:40.560
shatter something.

88
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:45.560
This you become You become this fair enough.

89
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:53.920
So clavicular or as the very respectable sixty minutes Australia

90
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:58.079
interviewer there was calling him Clave. His real name is

91
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:01.279
Bryden Eric Peters born to some seventeenth, two thousand and

92
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:05.959
five is a controversial American kick and TikTok streamer known

93
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:09.879
as the face of the extreme looks maxing trend of

94
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:13.399
twenty twenty five twenty twenty six. He promotes extreme, often

95
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:18.680
self harming methods or physical improvements, such as bone smashing

96
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:23.480
that's the uh, you know, the gentle face spacking with

97
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:28.040
a hammer. He also promotes steroid use and dangerous dieting.

98
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:35.759
M key details regarding clav This is from a AI's

99
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:39.519
Google assistant Jemini Content and fame. He gained notoriety on

100
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:43.439
kick and TikTok, gravocating radical looks maxing, maximizing physical attractiveness,

101
00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:47.240
often showcasing extreme dangerous practices. He's been involved in several

102
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:49.680
controversies which all of us here in the Treehouse know

103
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:54.240
as seven, including allegedly running over a pedestrian with a

104
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:57.360
cyber truck using racial slurs. I don't know if those

105
00:06:57.360 --> 00:06:59.519
two happened in the same instance, although that would be

106
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:03.439
even worse the first, and associating with figures such as

107
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:07.759
Andrew Tait and Nick Fuintez legal issues and health issues.

108
00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:10.720
In March of twenty six, so just last month, he

109
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:13.519
was arrested in Broward County, Florida on a warrant for

110
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:15.920
misdemeanor battery related to a video brawl.

111
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:18.000
As of April.

112
00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:20.959
Fourteenth, twenty twenty six, he was reported to be hospitalized

113
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:25.279
for a suspected overdose during a live stream, which he's

114
00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:27.959
confirmed by the way, So you get this sixty minutes

115
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:30.199
interview that goes viral a couple of days ago, and

116
00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:33.199
then like the next day, the dude overdoses during a

117
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:38.639
live stream at a restaurant in Miami on what don't know,

118
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:43.759
but he did post on x.

119
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:51.639
He said, uh, just got home. That was brutal.

120
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:54.959
All of the substances are just a cope trying to

121
00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:59.079
feel neurotypical while being in public, but obviously that isn't

122
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:02.399
a real solution. The worst part of tonight was my

123
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.560
face descending from the life support math and then as

124
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.360
a photo of him after the fact, you know, in

125
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:10.199
his bathroom lit.

126
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:12.720
Bruise on his face.

127
00:08:14.199 --> 00:08:15.759
So I think the other thing about him is that

128
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:19.319
I don't know if he actually is or just identifies

129
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:24.759
as neurodivergent in some fashion like he's on the spectrum.

130
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:27.800
A little bit more background on CLAV. He's known for

131
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:32.320
Menisphere adjacent content, as we just shared here. Was interviewed

132
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.679
by sixteen Minutes Australia, where he walked out after being

133
00:08:34.759 --> 00:08:37.679
asked if he identifies as an in cell. Does everybody

134
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:39.960
know what an in cell is? I didn't know that

135
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:41.720
term until just a few months ago.

136
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.639
Yeah. Involuntarily celibate.

137
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:53.000
Okay, so a lot of times associated with mass shooter

138
00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:57.759
types and they're really angry at things. Sometimes it's from

139
00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:01.440
the in cell, the involuntary celibatetion crowd. So this is

140
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:05.440
where you get all the manisphere stuff where it's I'm

141
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:09.240
an off of male blah blah blah, but I hate

142
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:14.200
women misogyny and a lot of it derives from not

143
00:09:14.279 --> 00:09:19.600
getting any attention from women because basically, you're an asshole,

144
00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:24.440
but it's not your fault, it's their fault, and since

145
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:31.279
they have blackballed you, it's their fault, not yours. Involuntarily

146
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:34.639
celibate blah blah blah blah blah. This is a like

147
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:38.320
I'd say it's a subculture, but I don't even know

148
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:41.320
if it's necessarily a subculture. I think it's just an

149
00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:44.720
outright culture. It's kind of part of the mainstream. Like

150
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:47.879
these are all names that get thrown around in the

151
00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:49.559
news on a weekly basis.

152
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:54.360
I mean, well, which names this.

153
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:58.799
Clavicular guy Andrew Tait. I mean, this is not necessarily

154
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.080
a weekly thing. But he's He's had a couple of

155
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:02.279
pops in the media.

156
00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:05.480
I mean, Nick quintess is a vile human being.

157
00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:11.159
Oh absolutely, and that's but he's but people still he's

158
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:13.879
he's part of this sort of community, like the in

159
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:16.679
cell thing where it's he's I think that he was

160
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:18.799
on a Pierce Morgan I think it was on Pierce

161
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:22.200
Morgan show. And he says he's a virgin.

162
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:24.559
But he also thinks women shouldn't should not be allowed

163
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:28.080
to vote, and he thought Charlie Kirk was too liberal.

164
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:32.320
I mean, I mean, this is all a huge mess.

165
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:35.120
Listen to some things Nick Flint says about the Jewish community.

166
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:39.399
He is absolutely just a vile human being. But I

167
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.960
also I have contended for a while now there is

168
00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:48.720
a group of that what were, you know, conservative podcasters

169
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.200
whatever that I feel like they're all trying to get

170
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.159
into the Alex Jones Lane especially Candice Owens, I mean

171
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:58.399
Candace Owens. Like even Alex Jones has been making fun

172
00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:01.000
of Candace Owens for being out there.

173
00:11:02.559 --> 00:11:11.039
You know, I'm sorry, but that's a moment of self reflection.

174
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:15.080
It's kind of like I mean, honestly, if it's like

175
00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:17.080
back in the day, I say, back in the day,

176
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:20.360
it was like ten years ago. If you're on one

177
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.240
side of the war and someone else is on the

178
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:23.759
other side of the war, but on your side of

179
00:11:23.799 --> 00:11:28.360
the war next to you are clansman, I would reassess

180
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:34.200
some things. If if I'm Canvas Owens and Alex Jones

181
00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:37.759
is saying I'm crazy, I think it's time for some

182
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:39.279
deep thought, some journaling.

183
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:43.039
Perhaps that's the very least some self reflection.

184
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:46.919
I mean, you would think. But I truly think especially

185
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:51.039
Candice Owens and Tucker Carlson, they saw the money, especially

186
00:11:51.039 --> 00:11:55.039
after that verdict that Alex Jones had been making, I mean,

187
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:58.440
which was a ton, and I think they all are like,

188
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:01.519
all right, we've got you know, not like we're doing

189
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:05.879
bad anyways, but that lane's about to be vacated, and

190
00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:08.639
you know, let me see if I can get into it.

191
00:12:08.720 --> 00:12:11.720
And well they went full full force.

192
00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:16.159
So it was.

193
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:19.879
I think it was two nights ago that the clavicular

194
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:26.919
guy Od's during a live stream and he's twenty years old.

195
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:30.279
Few d according from the time that we were recording

196
00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:33.799
this episode, according to CBS News, few details were released,

197
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.159
but a City of Miami Fire Rescue spokesperson told CBS

198
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:39.080
News Miami the cruise were called to the corner of

199
00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:41.840
Ninth Street and South Miami Avenue in Brickle or Brokel,

200
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.559
don't know how you said, after getting reports of a

201
00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:47.039
possible overdose of a twenty year old man. TMC's already

202
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:49.279
released part of the audio of that nine one one call,

203
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:53.039
and then he goes on social media and just basically

204
00:12:53.080 --> 00:12:55.240
confirms all of this, So you don't need to say

205
00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:56.320
suspected in a ledge.

206
00:12:56.360 --> 00:13:01.279
He's saying, yeah, this happened, so yeah. And so a

207
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:04.440
guy who I can't tell if he's looking for sympathy,

208
00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:07.600
if he's doing this as some sort of like a change,

209
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:10.240
you know, the conversation kind of thing. He's so embarrassed

210
00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:14.360
by his horrific sixty minutes Australia interview that he then

211
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:19.240
you know, copes by doing drugs in Miami and then over.

212
00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:25.200
Overdoses aka drug maxing, And is it because he's trying

213
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:28.919
to change the headlines that he's overdosed instead of being

214
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:31.679
embarrassed by this interview, or is he just that much

215
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:35.080
of an effing moron that he just can't help himself

216
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:35.639
with any of it.

217
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:41.720
I'll go see, there's, you know, a deep seated psychological problem.

218
00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:44.519
Because if you're hitting yourself in the face with a

219
00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:47.960
hammer and oding on drugs on purpose, which seems like

220
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:51.279
you know, it might be time to get a little counseling.

221
00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:56.240
Also, some maybe maybe he should go to a journaling

222
00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:03.559
class with Candice Olens. A nice irradiated ball rose at

223
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:11.120
the infrared ball class with Tucker Carlson. So yeah, people

224
00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:13.840
got problems all over the place, and it's getting really

225
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:15.200
hard to keep track of all of it.

226
00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:17.639
But I will say this.

227
00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:24.960
When I wake up and I see a story about

228
00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:33.279
a manness fear slash idiot influencer guy who partly has

229
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:39.200
been brought to fame because he's into bone smashing and

230
00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:45.600
working out, taking steroids, taking meth to curb his appetite

231
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:52.360
to look as good as humanly possible. You know, I look,

232
00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:55.440
this is not a kind thing to say, but I'm

233
00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:58.080
not beholden to anyone by saying this.

234
00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:01.320
I'm okay if he ods.

235
00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:05.720
Yeah. I mean, I don't think the gene pool is

236
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:06.919
going to be dying, you.

237
00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:10.840
Know, and you're thinking it might, it might bring our

238
00:15:10.840 --> 00:15:13.360
collective average up a little bit. On the IQ side.

239
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:19.519
Where is he from?

240
00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:22.720
Well, all of this happened in Florida. I don't know.

241
00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:26.120
I mean, that's that's that's I'm just gonna assume he's

242
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:28.919
from Florida because it just it makes too much sense.

243
00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:31.360
It really, it really does. Like I like, there's no

244
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:36.120
way this dude's from Texas.

245
00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:37.960
I just.

246
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:44.360
And it troubles me because, as it even says here

247
00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:47.440
in the description on who he is, he's a highly

248
00:15:47.440 --> 00:15:51.799
controversial figure for his extreme methods and influence on young

249
00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:54.919
male viewers. We said this the other day, and I

250
00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:57.000
think it bears repeating. Please keep an eye on what

251
00:15:57.039 --> 00:15:59.720
it is your children are looking at and consuming online.

252
00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:00.559
Mm hmm.

253
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:05.519
Well, I think there's there is something that we do

254
00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:10.720
not give enough credence to it and it perviates all

255
00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:22.240
issues right wing, left wing, LGBT. Everything is people's need

256
00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:26.840
and want for attention and popularity, especially on social media,

257
00:16:28.200 --> 00:16:30.960
is such a huge driving force that they will do

258
00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:39.879
our say almost anything. Yeah, and unfortunately, you know, they're

259
00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:41.840
like the bad kids that keep getting attention and so

260
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:42.799
they keep acting bad.

261
00:16:43.200 --> 00:16:46.039
Yeah. To me, while this.

262
00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:50.639
Current movement, like you said, tree is sort of is

263
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:55.879
based in social media the internet, to me, this is

264
00:16:55.919 --> 00:17:00.799
part of the Kardashian effect. That and even it predates

265
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:03.240
the Kardashians, they're just to me best known for it.

266
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:05.960
When you get when you when we started getting the

267
00:17:06.079 --> 00:17:09.200
rise of social I'm sorry, when we started getting the

268
00:17:09.279 --> 00:17:18.119
rise of reality television, where we started showcasing our richest

269
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:27.000
and stupidest, thus making them wealthier and stupid er, they

270
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:32.720
had no reason to change. It's it's reinforcing bad behavior.

271
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:36.559
And why would you change if you know you keep

272
00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:40.680
getting all this fame and money, And that to me

273
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:42.599
is where the shift started.

274
00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:48.359
Oh, I I think it's always I don't think I

275
00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:54.079
think it's always been there. But I think then the Kardashians,

276
00:17:54.319 --> 00:17:57.279
you know, people were like, oh, reality TV, but that

277
00:17:57.440 --> 00:17:59.759
was still you know, not that many people could do it.

278
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:05.279
Then you get TikTok, YouTube, social media, anyone and everyone

279
00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:07.799
can do it. If you can just you know, find

280
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:09.000
your lane and.

281
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:13.519
Be extreme and yeah, it's like the combination of Jerry

282
00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:15.880
Springer and lifestyles of the rich and famous.

283
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:18.839
It's well, yeah, I mean I was watching some clip

284
00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:23.880
the other day and literally these some of these guys,

285
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:27.359
I I guess they consider themselves trans but they look

286
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.400
like what we used to pay, you know, for tickets

287
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:33.640
to see at the State Fair of the bearded man.

288
00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:36.640
Oh yeah, okay, I mean it's one guy.

289
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:41.720
I mean he is like full beard and in abroad

290
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:43.720
and clearly he's gotten implants.

291
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:49.559
Now you're not talking about Christy Nolam's husband, right, Sorry,

292
00:18:49.599 --> 00:18:50.559
he was clean shaven.

293
00:18:53.559 --> 00:19:00.519
You know. It's like, so you're a woman. I don't know.

294
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:02.480
It's just you know what people will do, do or

295
00:19:02.519 --> 00:19:06.079
say just about anything if it'll get them likes and follows.

296
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:09.720
It really is. It's the rise of extremism across whether

297
00:19:09.880 --> 00:19:13.519
socio political whatever. It's just and we need to stop it.

298
00:19:13.559 --> 00:19:14.440
And by the way, I.

299
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:16.839
Was saying we needed to stop it like two decades ago,

300
00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:18.400
and we have it, and look at where we are.

301
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:24.319
Maybe it's you the great oracle.

302
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:26.279
I am, thank you.

303
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:36.720
Trade I am an oracle. Look at me with extreme views.

304
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:44.160
You're listening to the Treehouse visit us online that treehouse

305
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:46.599
on air dot com. I was just thinking I was

306
00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:48.759
a trailblazer. I didn't realize that you thought I was

307
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:49.440
an oracle.

308
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:56.160
Let's get Daniel Cook from COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration into

309
00:19:56.240 --> 00:19:59.839
the treehouse. Daniel, you are the owner operator of cooked

310
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:05.799
W Roofing and Restoration. Roofs are one of your focuses.

311
00:20:06.200 --> 00:20:08.839
Restoration the other side of the business doing hom remodeling

312
00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:12.559
and things, but really at its core, what you do

313
00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:14.000
every day is take care of people.

314
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:18.319
We are definitely a customer service focused business and that

315
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:22.119
is up to all of our standards. We tell of

316
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:25.319
our guys that's number one. It's not about, you know,

317
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:27.759
the profit. If you do well and you take care

318
00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:31.039
of clients, the profit comes later. That is the mission

319
00:20:31.079 --> 00:20:35.279
of our company is educate, inform, make sure the client

320
00:20:35.319 --> 00:20:37.839
has the best information to make their decision, and then

321
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:39.799
follow up with everything we say we're going to do.

322
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:40.000
So.

323
00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:42.839
Yes, customer service is by far the number one thing.

324
00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:45.920
And what's fascinating to me about that is there are

325
00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:47.759
lots of companies out there that will tell you that,

326
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:53.359

True dad.

And I know something that makes me feel better every

358
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:41.640
single day. That's Birthdays. Today is.

359
00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:46.880
Thursday, April sixteenth, twenty twenty six.

360
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:56.839
Birthdays today. Martin Lawrence is sixty one. Wow, Martin Lawrence

361
00:22:57.000 --> 00:23:03.240
sixty one. If you haven't, if you haven't seen the

362
00:23:03.880 --> 00:23:05.279
most recent Bad.

363
00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:09.480
Boys movie, The Rider Die mm hm is really no

364
00:23:09.640 --> 00:23:15.599
neat Honestly, the one before that, there's a look. I

365
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:17.480
I took the bullet for you.

366
00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:19.640
You don't need to waste your time on those films.

367
00:23:19.720 --> 00:23:21.599
There's something to be said about it. When Dan says

368
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:23.200
it's not great exactly.

369
00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:25.799
I quit after the second one.

370
00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:29.240
You chose wisely, I.

371
00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:34.279
Mean, especially as when Martin Morris got so fat, it's

372
00:23:34.279 --> 00:23:41.480
like yeah uh and then yeah no, I mean, I

373
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:43.279
he was brilliant. I mean he he had a run

374
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:52.559
and from Martin to Bad Boys, I mean, and its

375
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:53.839
stand up was was good.

376
00:23:53.920 --> 00:23:56.440
But and a bunch of the films that he did

377
00:23:56.440 --> 00:23:58.160
with Eddie Murphy also very good.

378
00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:04.400
Yeah, and then uh yeah, there was he said he

379
00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:06.240
had a run. But then it seems like ever since

380
00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:08.880
he had that instant and you know where, like he

381
00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:11.119
was freaking out in the middle of the street in

382
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:14.200
Hollywood and like in a sweatsuit or something. This was

383
00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:18.680
probably twenty years ago, fifteen, twenty years ago. But uh,

384
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:21.160
like he had a he had a breakdown at one

385
00:24:21.160 --> 00:24:24.759
point kind of in a Britney Spears. It seems like

386
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:27.400
it was around the same time. He's he's never been

387
00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:28.599
the same man.

388
00:24:28.680 --> 00:24:34.559
I don't remember that. Oh yeah, yeah, you know what.

389
00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:38.000
We all got our problems.

390
00:24:39.039 --> 00:24:42.319
But you know what, Trey, you were like, like Bad

391
00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:46.680
Boys won. That's it's not a masterpiece, but that's a

392
00:24:46.839 --> 00:24:48.000
that's a fun but it was great.

393
00:24:48.480 --> 00:24:52.000
That's so much fun. Michael Bay, you know peak Michael Bay.

394
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:57.839
Bad Boys Too was fun. That had a lot of good,

395
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:01.279
sort of redeemed things in it, and that was a

396
00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:04.319
fun movie. After that, there's really no more need.

397
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:08.680
For the Bad Boys franchise. It was like, but yeah,

398
00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:09.599
so Martin Laurn.

399
00:25:09.519 --> 00:25:16.079
Sixty one, Ellen Barkin seventy two, Chance the Rapper thirty

400
00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:21.880
three one, of my favorite current actresses of note.

401
00:25:21.880 --> 00:25:26.720
Anya Taylor Joy is thirty today. She's fantastic. It is

402
00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:29.119
unreal the career she has already had.

403
00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:34.720
Yeah, she's in the Dune three movie coming out later

404
00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:35.240
this year.

405
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:40.039
She was in a movie opposite Miles Teller.

406
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:42.640
It's called The Gorge, but I believe Trey first thought

407
00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:46.559
it was called The Gulp or sorry, the Gulch, The Gulch.

408
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:50.400
I remember when you asked me about that.

409
00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:53.440
You were saying that you would watch this movie on

410
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:54.720
Apple and you're like, what's that.

411
00:25:54.759 --> 00:25:56.880
I think it was called The Gulch, Like, oh, no,

412
00:25:56.960 --> 00:25:59.799
the Gorge. Yeah. And those are some of her lesser

413
00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:01.519
known things. I mean, she was in.

414
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:04.480
God, I'm brain fighting on the name of it now,

415
00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:09.519
there was it? Norseman or Northman with scars? Guard are

416
00:26:09.559 --> 00:26:11.599
the Stars guards Her?

417
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:17.680
The Queen's Gambit is a fantastic show on Netflix, which,

418
00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:21.079
by the way, if you want to see there's a

419
00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:25.720
new documentary about like this chess feud cheating scandal. It's

420
00:26:25.880 --> 00:26:27.359
highly entertaining you if.

421
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:30.839
You now that you mentioned that.

422
00:26:31.000 --> 00:26:34.480
I thought I saw a headline the other day that

423
00:26:34.559 --> 00:26:40.039
it was at some chess tournament a chess grandmaster champion

424
00:26:40.160 --> 00:26:43.599
took a selfie with his competitor.

425
00:26:43.319 --> 00:26:45.319
And then kicked her out.

426
00:26:44.680 --> 00:26:46.480
And then like a few minutes later you accused her

427
00:26:46.519 --> 00:26:46.920
of cheating.

428
00:26:47.519 --> 00:26:49.519
Well no, so we had her kicked out because you're

429
00:26:49.519 --> 00:26:51.279
not supposed to have a phone in the competition.

430
00:26:53.319 --> 00:26:56.359
Oh what an a hole? Well so, because in the

431
00:26:56.359 --> 00:26:59.480
photo he's smiling like geez, and he.

432
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:04.200
Is part of this of this whole thing. It's about him.

433
00:27:04.200 --> 00:27:06.519
He is he is the number one player in the world.

434
00:27:06.519 --> 00:27:11.359
And then this American kid who you just kind of

435
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:14.839
in the same like god on on like twitch and

436
00:27:14.880 --> 00:27:19.640
whatever and playing chess and acting like you know, mixing

437
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:23.839
wrestling and chess basically and just yell and screaming all

438
00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:28.759
this stuff, and then that it works as it's it's

439
00:27:28.799 --> 00:27:33.000
an entertaining show, works his way up to being, you know,

440
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:36.920
in competition and then beats the number one player, and

441
00:27:39.119 --> 00:27:42.640
it's it's funny thing they ended up. There's a site

442
00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:44.160
called chess dot com that you know a lot of

443
00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:48.799
people play live on and it turns out they knew

444
00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:52.519
this kid was cheating, and they had an algorithm that

445
00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:56.680
could say when people were cheating. Then they go back

446
00:27:56.720 --> 00:28:03.039
and watch his lie in on board games and they

447
00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:05.240
analyzed all the movies. We're like, no, he wasn't cheating.

448
00:28:06.680 --> 00:28:09.200
Uh it's and then I mean went as far as

449
00:28:09.279 --> 00:28:13.279
they accused that he had a vibrating butt plug in

450
00:28:13.559 --> 00:28:16.680
and that was how he was getting signals on the chessboard.

451
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:21.039
Did they get that confirmed?

452
00:28:22.039 --> 00:28:26.000
No, it's it's it's not. Did not seem to be true.

453
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:27.920
I do remember seeing that headline.

454
00:28:27.920 --> 00:28:30.480
I'm almost positive if I was to go back and

455
00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:32.559
scroll back through my notes from a few months ago,

456
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:35.000
I'm almost positive I have that written down. And now

457
00:28:35.000 --> 00:28:37.039
I'm wondering what the hell else happened that day that

458
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:38.279
we didn't get to that story.

459
00:28:39.960 --> 00:28:42.200
So, yeah, that was the whole day. That was one

460
00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:44.799
of the one of the theories that was, you know,

461
00:28:44.839 --> 00:28:46.880
put out on the internet is maybe had a vibrating

462
00:28:46.920 --> 00:28:51.279
butt plug. And of course it just took off because.

463
00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:52.359
That does you know, of course, of course it does.

464
00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:54.000
You gotta keep it. You gotta keep an eye on

465
00:28:54.039 --> 00:28:56.759
those things. They'll get away from you real fast. Yeah,

466
00:28:56.920 --> 00:28:57.640
keep it clinched.

467
00:28:57.960 --> 00:29:02.920
Yeah, lets it's secure really up there. But then the

468
00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:05.839
guy was like, well, now it's all I'm ever gonna

469
00:29:05.839 --> 00:29:09.400
be known for, is vibrating butt plug or whatever. It's like, Yeah,

470
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:11.440
I mean, you're not wrong. I mean he ended up

471
00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:15.440
suing the I forgot the guy's name, the same guy

472
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.680
involved in the story about the selfie suing all of them,

473
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:20.839
and they settled with him because they I guess they

474
00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:21.880
knew they had screwed up.

475
00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:23.039
Oh yeah, but.

476
00:29:23.119 --> 00:29:29.240
It's he's irritating as hell just watching him and listening

477
00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:34.799
to him, and but it's so fascinating of of the

478
00:29:34.839 --> 00:29:37.000
world of high stakes chess.

479
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:39.759
You're part of the problem. Tree, You're part of the problem.

480
00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:41.960
You're part of the reason why we have the cliviculars

481
00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:46.039
of the world and and the crazy butt plugging chess masters,

482
00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:49.880
because you're the one. It's you and people like you that,

483
00:29:50.000 --> 00:29:52.400
even though you know you shouldn't, you can't help but

484
00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:53.920
watch this stuff.

485
00:29:54.240 --> 00:29:56.920
Well I watched this stuff because by the time a

486
00:29:57.000 --> 00:30:02.400
documentary has made it's typically over all.

487
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:04.839
Right, you found an out. I'll give you credit there.

488
00:30:04.880 --> 00:30:08.079
You're not watching the show that made them famous. You're

489
00:30:08.119 --> 00:30:11.039
watching the documentary that comes out a couple of years later.

490
00:30:11.119 --> 00:30:12.519
So you're not part of the problem.

491
00:30:12.759 --> 00:30:13.160
You're just.

492
00:30:14.960 --> 00:30:15.839
You're just an observer.

493
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:18.440
I'm just a vulture feeding on the what is in

494
00:30:18.440 --> 00:30:18.960
the corpse.

495
00:30:22.480 --> 00:30:23.319
It's pretty well put.

496
00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:29.440
Actually, other birthdays today besides Anya Taylor Joy, Kareem Abdul Jabbar,

497
00:30:30.440 --> 00:30:33.240
a phenomenal actor also a decent basketball player.

498
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:36.319
He's seventy nine years old today. Had a great role

499
00:30:36.359 --> 00:30:37.880
in Airplane, Yes he did.

500
00:30:38.519 --> 00:30:40.799
He also had a little guest starring role for a

501
00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:45.079
few episodes in New Girl. Actually, it's probably not even

502
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:49.920
fair to say guest starring. Sort of, so there was

503
00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:51.640
at one point one of the characters in the show

504
00:30:51.680 --> 00:30:55.240
New Girl was interning at a radio station and the

505
00:30:55.279 --> 00:30:59.720
main radio host was being portrayed by Phil Hendry, who

506
00:30:59.799 --> 00:31:02.480
was a well known radio guy out of la and

507
00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:06.119
Kareem Abdul Jabbar played the co host, but he played himself.

508
00:31:06.920 --> 00:31:09.000
It was actually it was it's a pretty good little

509
00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:10.920
episode arc of that show.

510
00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:12.960
He was also on a on an episode of The

511
00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:20.359
Big Bang Theory where it's Will Wheaton, Kareem or Phil Kareem,

512
00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:23.119
But it was just funny because it was Will Wheaton,

513
00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:32.599
Kareem Shatner, Joe, I think he Magic, Mike, I can't

514
00:31:32.599 --> 00:31:36.319
say his last name. Uh, I think he was Mary, Yes,

515
00:31:37.960 --> 00:31:42.079
Kevin Smith were all they're playing dungeons and dragons. Wow.

516
00:31:43.160 --> 00:31:44.480
I think I remember that episode.

517
00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:46.960
Yeah, I remember thinking to myself, like, oh my god,

518
00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:48.359
this is a hell of a cast.

519
00:31:48.559 --> 00:31:51.119
Yeah, for one scene and one show.

520
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:55.039
Playing dungeons and dragons just made it perfect.

521
00:31:57.039 --> 00:32:00.759
One of the greatest basketball players of all time and

522
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:07.119
he's whatever level or something. But yeah, that's that's pretty solid.

523
00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:13.519
It's things like that that I I know are embellished

524
00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:17.519
and exaggerated for comedic effect in Hollywood, But somewhere I

525
00:32:17.640 --> 00:32:20.880
like to think that there's an actual Hollywood D and

526
00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:24.759
D group and it's from people like that all together

527
00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:25.799
in the same world.

528
00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:27.799
Now, I will say that.

529
00:32:29.559 --> 00:32:35.640
Joe Mannganello is a big, muscled out geek, like I

530
00:32:35.720 --> 00:32:36.759
believe he's full on.

531
00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:40.480
Into D and D. I think I've seen that about him.

532
00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:43.720
I mean, you're right, I'm sure there is the way.

533
00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:48.519
It's like like Henry Caville, you know, Superman, he's the

534
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:52.359
New Highlander. That dude's That dude's into some nerdy stuff

535
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:55.519
as well. It's called Warhammer, but I think it's it's

536
00:32:55.599 --> 00:32:59.920
one of those offshoot like fantasy toy type things, and

537
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:03.559
Warhammer is is tabletop miniature warfare.

538
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:04.960
It's all about the.

539
00:33:04.880 --> 00:33:08.279
Little minis and the maps and the geoform and.

540
00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:13.519
Yeah, you're in. You're into it too, aren't you. It's okay,

541
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:18.200
Henry is your leader. It's okay.

542
00:33:19.279 --> 00:33:23.960
I mean you are right, though there is probably and

543
00:33:23.960 --> 00:33:26.960
and it is unique. It is it is the only one.

544
00:33:27.799 --> 00:33:31.240
But somewhere in Hollywood there is a cool Dungeons and Dragons.

545
00:33:30.839 --> 00:33:36.440
Game and it's the only time I've wanted to play.

546
00:33:36.680 --> 00:33:42.720
Yeah, you're in the tree house.

547
00:33:43.559 --> 00:33:55.640
Visit us online, a treehouse on air dot com. You're

548
00:33:55.720 --> 00:33:59.920
in the tree house. Visit us online, a treehouse on air.

549
00:34:06.680 --> 00:34:11.039
Oh man, what a day, What a week? And we're

550
00:34:11.119 --> 00:34:21.360
not done yet. So Jurassic Park was supposed to teach

551
00:34:21.440 --> 00:34:25.639
us not to mess with Mother Nature, but we didn't

552
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:32.800
learn a goddamn thing. M A lab, a lab has

553
00:34:32.840 --> 00:34:37.960
grown Tyrannosaurus rex protein sequences, not to put in the zoo,

554
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:42.239
but to make a handbag. Oh that's right.

555
00:34:43.079 --> 00:34:47.840
T Rex leather handbags are now a real thing thanks

556
00:34:47.840 --> 00:34:54.119
to such. The first handbag made from lab grown leather

557
00:34:56.000 --> 00:35:00.199
inspired by reconstructed t Rex protein sequences went on display

558
00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:04.599
two weeks ago at the Art Zoom Museum in Amsterdam.

559
00:35:05.360 --> 00:35:08.119
After a six weeks exhibition, the t rex bag will

560
00:35:08.119 --> 00:35:10.440
be auctioned and sold to the highest bidder starting BED

561
00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:14.840
five hundred thousand British pounds or around six hundred and

562
00:35:14.840 --> 00:35:18.679
sixty three thousand US dollars. For now, it's a one

563
00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:22.119
of a kind collector's piece designed by high end Polish

564
00:35:22.159 --> 00:35:26.360
techware label enfond le Vais, which sounds more French, but

565
00:35:26.480 --> 00:35:28.400
I don't speak Polish, so it is what it is.

566
00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:33.199
But acceptance among the elite and influencers can lead to

567
00:35:33.320 --> 00:35:35.320
ministream products.

568
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:38.039
They're gonna make boots.

569
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:43.159
I had the same thought persons I'm out on. But

570
00:35:43.199 --> 00:35:45.360
you show me a nice pair of t Rex leather

571
00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:46.400
lu cases.

572
00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:53.159
And I might be in. I mean even anyone.

573
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:54.840
Can say though, oh this is gator, or this is

574
00:35:54.920 --> 00:35:58.199
ostrich or that's rattlesnake. But you put a pair of

575
00:35:58.199 --> 00:36:03.039
boots on the table that's t Rex leather, and you

576
00:36:03.039 --> 00:36:04.480
you kind of got something there.

577
00:36:05.320 --> 00:36:06.920
I mean, especially if you could figure out a way

578
00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:11.159
like you know, like Cayman crocodile boots and sometimes you

579
00:36:11.199 --> 00:36:14.840
know you get the ridges from from the gator on

580
00:36:14.840 --> 00:36:19.159
on on the crocodile on the boots. If you could

581
00:36:19.159 --> 00:36:20.880
get the little t rex hands on the toe.

582
00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:26.159
Yeah, I need you, I need to like, you go

583
00:36:26.159 --> 00:36:28.559
to the salesperson, I need I need to know can

584
00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:31.920
those grab things?

585
00:36:33.840 --> 00:36:36.159
Just imagine sticking your feet up on an airplane with those.

586
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:41.039
According to this at the moment, lab grown leather often

587
00:36:41.199 --> 00:36:45.360
struggles in the luxury space because it seems because it's

588
00:36:45.400 --> 00:36:49.519
seen as an imitation, something trying to replicate traditional leather

589
00:36:49.559 --> 00:36:53.039
but never quite achieving the same sense of exclusivity.

590
00:36:53.719 --> 00:36:55.760
Give it time. They said the same thing about lab

591
00:36:55.760 --> 00:36:58.440
grown diamonds, and you know they get more and more

592
00:36:58.440 --> 00:36:59.360
popular every year.

593
00:36:59.719 --> 00:37:03.400
Yeah, but with t rex leather, the intention is to

594
00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:07.599
shift that perception entirely, which I'm pretty sure it would

595
00:37:08.519 --> 00:37:12.119
because it's all about status and exclusivity. You want a nice,

596
00:37:12.239 --> 00:37:14.719
you know, handbag, it's like, oh, well this is made

597
00:37:14.760 --> 00:37:19.440
with Terennosaurus direx. That might get you into some circles

598
00:37:19.480 --> 00:37:22.239
you otherwise might not have had the opportunity to.

599
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:27.760
Might be the closest to the to the geek sphere

600
00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:29.920
that some people will ever get.

601
00:37:30.480 --> 00:37:34.000
Yeah, they're even saying by positioning t rex leather as

602
00:37:34.119 --> 00:37:37.840
ultra luxury, we're showing that ethical lab grown materials can

603
00:37:37.880 --> 00:37:41.800
be just as desirable, if not more so, than traditional leather.

604
00:37:42.480 --> 00:37:44.480
Yeah, but you can't get that anywhere else except out

605
00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:46.920
of the lab. You know, it's not like it's a cow.

606
00:37:47.079 --> 00:37:53.800
You guys bang your belt. It's it, you know, there's

607
00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:54.440
some effort to it.

608
00:37:54.559 --> 00:38:01.880
Yeah, I would like I would like, uh, like the

609
00:38:02.159 --> 00:38:06.639
what is it like, a little flower thing boot near Yeah,

610
00:38:06.679 --> 00:38:07.239
thank you, Trey.

611
00:38:07.239 --> 00:38:10.079
I would like I would like a booteneer from that

612
00:38:10.320 --> 00:38:13.320
dinosaur that doesn't and then spits the ink in your eyes.

613
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:17.440
I'd like that.

614
00:38:19.559 --> 00:38:23.000
Instead of the one that squirts water at squirts ink. Yeah,

615
00:38:23.079 --> 00:38:24.000
but it's poison ink.

616
00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:28.840
It's acidic poison. Yeah. Actually, now that I think about it,

617
00:38:28.840 --> 00:38:31.920
I shouldn't be trusted with something because I'll use it.

618
00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:38.440
Oh god, oh uh uh.

619
00:38:39.000 --> 00:38:40.880
Story I mentioned at the beginning of the show that

620
00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:42.519
I want to make sure I mentioned.

621
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:44.159
Before We're out of here today.

622
00:38:45.480 --> 00:38:51.880
We all remember Baby Jessica. Yes, tiny little baby thing

623
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:57.280
fell in a well, glued to the TV. The whole

624
00:38:57.360 --> 00:38:59.440
the whole world was glued to the TV for th.

625
00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:05.320
Well. Her story is not quite over because.

626
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:11.519
Jessica McClure, also known as Baby Jessica, allegedly choked and

627
00:39:11.599 --> 00:39:18.719
scratched her husband before being arrested. Jessica McClure Morales.

628
00:39:18.760 --> 00:39:20.760
She's now known.

629
00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:23.199
The famous baby Jessica, who made national news when she

630
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:26.480
fell down a well in nineteen eighty seven, allegedly choked

631
00:39:26.480 --> 00:39:30.679
a member of her family. Just reading that sentence, it

632
00:39:30.719 --> 00:39:34.320
would make sense if you thought, well, maybe she was

633
00:39:34.360 --> 00:39:37.239
angry about being left unattended in the backyard with an

634
00:39:37.239 --> 00:39:40.239
open fucking well, Yeah, I'll do something to you.

635
00:39:40.639 --> 00:39:43.880
Yeah, But no, not in this case.

636
00:39:43.880 --> 00:39:47.119
According to a probable cause affidavit for Jessica's arrest, police

637
00:39:47.119 --> 00:39:50.960
in Midland County say Jessica told them the Saturday confrontation

638
00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:53.159
began when she and her husband got into a heated

639
00:39:53.239 --> 00:39:56.440
verbal argument, during which she allegedly scratched him while trying

640
00:39:56.480 --> 00:40:00.639
to shove him away. The witness told police front story.

641
00:40:01.480 --> 00:40:03.960
Please say they were told someone advised Jessica and her

642
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:05.519
husband not to fight in front of a child who

643
00:40:05.559 --> 00:40:11.960
was in the room. Her husband allegedly said that before

644
00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:17.280
she grabbed him by the throat. Please say they spoke

645
00:40:17.320 --> 00:40:19.559
to a witness who claims Jessica's husband shoved her away

646
00:40:19.599 --> 00:40:22.760
and that led Jessica to trip over the child. Everyone's

647
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:25.639
got stories on this one. Jessica was arrested Saturday night,

648
00:40:25.719 --> 00:40:29.239
charged with assault causing bodily injury involving family violence, posed

649
00:40:29.239 --> 00:40:31.440
for a mugshot at Midland County Jail and was released

650
00:40:31.440 --> 00:40:35.000
from custody after posting bond. And of course we all

651
00:40:35.039 --> 00:40:39.400
remember from nineteen eighty seven, at eighteen months old, she

652
00:40:39.519 --> 00:40:42.719
fell into a very narrow well at her aunt's Midland home,

653
00:40:42.760 --> 00:40:47.880
becoming trapped twenty two feet underground, finally rescued after fifty

654
00:40:48.039 --> 00:40:51.719
eight hours, fifty eight grueling hours she was in that

655
00:40:51.800 --> 00:40:57.280
well and for us fifty eight hours of grueling TV

656
00:40:57.440 --> 00:40:59.960
watching with no high death.

657
00:41:00.800 --> 00:41:02.880
It seems like it was a lot longer when you

658
00:41:02.920 --> 00:41:07.159
think about it, just how many fifty eight hours?

659
00:41:07.320 --> 00:41:09.519
Yeah, that's a little over two days. I thought it

660
00:41:09.519 --> 00:41:11.800
was a lot longer than that. It felt like all week.

661
00:41:12.440 --> 00:41:15.960
Yeah, And I still even because that was nineteen eighty seven,

662
00:41:16.000 --> 00:41:17.440
so I would have been like six or seven when

663
00:41:17.440 --> 00:41:17.960
that happened.

664
00:41:18.880 --> 00:41:24.639
Even then at that age, I wondered with a well,

665
00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:28.719
that's that tiny. How do you fall in there? And

666
00:41:28.760 --> 00:41:31.840
I still remember the diagram of how she was positioned

667
00:41:31.920 --> 00:41:34.800
in that well. It was like one leg down. She

668
00:41:34.920 --> 00:41:37.559
was like feet first right, there was one leg down

669
00:41:37.599 --> 00:41:38.920
and like one leg up.

670
00:41:38.800 --> 00:41:41.800
Looking like one of my sister's dolls like baby dolls,

671
00:41:42.239 --> 00:41:46.079
and it's like, how do you fall down a well

672
00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:51.880
that small get stuck? That still sounds suspicious to me

673
00:41:52.360 --> 00:41:56.239
all these years later, because if it's a well in

674
00:41:56.320 --> 00:41:58.280
the ground that was covered up and didn't realize that.

675
00:41:58.320 --> 00:42:00.440
She walks over and the board gives like a normal

676
00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:02.559
size well, you know, like three or four feet across,

677
00:42:03.960 --> 00:42:08.599
I get it, But what was like eighteen inches? Yeah,

678
00:42:08.800 --> 00:42:10.719
something like it was like, it feels like someone put

679
00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:12.119
her in there and like shoved her down.

680
00:42:16.960 --> 00:42:20.440
I wondered that myself. That's but again being one of

681
00:42:20.480 --> 00:42:24.480
those kids that was like never interested in seeing what

682
00:42:26.119 --> 00:42:30.480
parts of myself fit into weird things or what weird

683
00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:31.599
things I could get into.

684
00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:37.039
And I never tell us more.

685
00:42:37.159 --> 00:42:41.960
Jerry, I I've just never I've never been that guy,

686
00:42:42.400 --> 00:42:44.199
never been interested to see.

687
00:42:46.719 --> 00:42:51.320
You know what my fingers what I could you know

688
00:42:51.360 --> 00:42:55.199
what I'm talking about. I am this is all new

689
00:42:55.239 --> 00:42:55.440
to me.

690
00:42:55.519 --> 00:42:59.840
Please tell us more about where you think you should fit,

691
00:43:00.360 --> 00:43:01.960
what things you've tried to fit into.

692
00:43:02.800 --> 00:43:04.760
I haven't. That was the thing. I've never been interested

693
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:05.559
in doing that. You know.

694
00:43:05.679 --> 00:43:08.559
I hear the stories about guys sticking their junk into

695
00:43:08.800 --> 00:43:11.320
into things just let's see if that would fit. I've

696
00:43:11.320 --> 00:43:13.440
never been interested in that. I've never been interested to

697
00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:15.440
see if I could crawl to an eighteen inch pipe before.

698
00:43:16.320 --> 00:43:22.039
Yeah, okay, I'll tell you what though, I want to

699
00:43:22.039 --> 00:43:25.159
talk about someone with the threat of solitary would really

700
00:43:25.159 --> 00:43:25.800
get their attention.

701
00:43:27.480 --> 00:43:36.280
Oh yeah, Jerry's confused. Mm hmm.

702
00:43:38.679 --> 00:43:45.000
You mean me? No, Oh okay, maybe that would be

703
00:43:45.239 --> 00:43:47.360
trapped it trapped in a well solitary confinement.

704
00:43:48.119 --> 00:43:50.599
Ah, there it is.

705
00:43:50.880 --> 00:43:52.880
There's there's you can see if you look really closely,

706
00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:54.119
you can see the little light bulble.

707
00:43:54.280 --> 00:44:06.559
Jerry, We're going to put you at a Yeah.

708
00:44:06.639 --> 00:44:09.000
And finally, I want to make sure I mention this

709
00:44:10.199 --> 00:44:12.239
feet picks for tips.

710
00:44:12.960 --> 00:44:14.199
Young woman has gone viral.

711
00:44:14.199 --> 00:44:18.519
She's an uber each delivery driver, and she's gone viral

712
00:44:18.599 --> 00:44:22.679
for her additional tip making ability because when she drops

713
00:44:22.679 --> 00:44:26.079
off the food, as most food delivery drivers do, they

714
00:44:26.119 --> 00:44:28.239
take a photo of the food placed at the front

715
00:44:28.280 --> 00:44:30.320
door and they send it through the system so you

716
00:44:30.360 --> 00:44:32.480
see that the food has in fact been delivered.

717
00:44:33.000 --> 00:44:37.559
But she's done something very smart. She's managed to take

718
00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:40.440
a photo of the food on the doorstep with her

719
00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:45.239
feet perfectly positioned next to the bags of food. Netting

720
00:44:45.280 --> 00:44:50.480
her a lot of extra money. One particular receipt had

721
00:44:50.519 --> 00:44:55.199
her delivering a sixteen dollars food delivery, but the receipt

722
00:44:55.239 --> 00:44:57.920
included a fifty dollars tip because she got her feet

723
00:44:58.039 --> 00:45:01.159
just perfectly positioned and they're freshly pedicured in everything.

724
00:45:02.119 --> 00:45:04.679
And I'm not mad about it. If anything, I'm a

725
00:45:04.679 --> 00:45:07.760
little envious kind of thinking. I keep, you know, I

726
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:09.679
keep looking at my feet and think, you.

727
00:45:09.639 --> 00:45:12.280
Know what, they're not that bad. I don't know if

728
00:45:12.280 --> 00:45:15.599
there's a market for dude feet, but I'll stick my

729
00:45:15.599 --> 00:45:17.760
feet and some mashed potatoes for a few thousand dollars.

730
00:45:18.119 --> 00:45:18.599
There you go.

731
00:45:18.880 --> 00:45:23.880
What other weird fetishes are you envious about? Dan?

732
00:45:25.400 --> 00:45:27.639
Just most of the ones that pay really, really good.

733
00:45:32.679 --> 00:45:41.960
