eleven pm, a Tarrell police officer was killed during a

10
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:34.280
traffic stop. According to police, the incident occurred when the officer,

11
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:39.719
identified by Taryll police as Jacob Candonosa, stopped a driver

12
00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:42.000
in the parking lot of a Super eight motel along

13
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:45.280
the sixteen hundred block of South State Highway thirty four.

14
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:50.480
Police said Candonosa requested a cover unit during the traffic stop,

15
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:56.239
and additional officers were sent to the location within moments

16
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.640
of dispatching the other officers. The Tarot Police Department Communications

17
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:03.760
Division received two nine one one calls regarding an officer

18
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:08.599
being shot. The department also received a radio transmission from

19
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:11.639
a citizen who used the officer's radio to give the

20
00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:16.479
same information. Tarot Police officers, as well as the Tarot

21
00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:20.319
Fire Department and Care Flight responded to the scene. According

22
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:23.199
to police, that responding officers confirmed an officer had been

23
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:28.199
shot and immediately began to administer medical attention. Officer Candonosa

24
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:31.039
was transported to Baylor, Scott and White Family Medical Center

25
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:37.280
in Forney, where he later succumbed to his injuries. Officer

26
00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:40.560
Candanosa was a police officer with the Tarot Police Department

27
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:44.280
since July of this year. The department said he leaves

28
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:50.960
behind a wife and a young child. According to Lieutenant

29
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.719
Mary Hager of the Tarot Police Department, we want to

30
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:58.439
extend our deepest condolences to the family during this hard time. Also,

31
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:02.479
according to Hager, Candanosa gave the responding officers the suspects

32
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:06.879
license plate information. Following the traffic stop. Off duty officers

33
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:10.919
and Texas State troopers later spotted the suspects vehicle in

34
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:13.919
the Canton, Texas area in Van Zank County, about thirty

35
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:18.360
miles east of Terrell. Officer searched the area by foot

36
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:24.319
with canines and drones. Yes, East Texas has drones, and

37
00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:27.199
reported that the suspect had been taken into custody around

38
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:30.280
the Mill Creek Resort off I twenty around five thirty

39
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:33.159
in the morning Monday, was being held at the Kaufman

40
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:38.639
County Detention Center. Tarot Police Chief Arley Santsom said before

41
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:40.599
dawn on Monday that this has been a very difficult

42
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:43.120
time for his department they and that they would release

43
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:47.400
more information later. Tarot Police. At the time of this

44
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:52.000
recording and the time of this particular story from NBCDFW,

45
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:56.240
Tarot Police have not shared any additional information or really

46
00:03:56.280 --> 00:04:04.039
any information about the suspect that was apprehended. Yes, the

47
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:08.599
RMS Treehouse Listeners Foundation will be issuing a check to

48
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:15.439
the family of Officer Jacob Candanoso in an extremely similar

49
00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:21.120
incident to the situation that just happened in Greenville, Texas,

50
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:29.879
another young officer who had left behind a young family.

51
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:36.560
And in this instance, this location of this incident, it

52
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:40.120
falls within the boundary of the foundation, so we will

53
00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:43.639
be able to issue a check to his surviving members

54
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:47.000
of his family, unlike the situation of the Greenville officer

55
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:50.240
where that fell outside the territory. I say all that

56
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.839
because we always want to remain transparent with the Foundation

57
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:58.399
as we always have because it's not our money in there.

58
00:04:58.439 --> 00:04:59.920
I mean, there's some of our money in there, but

59
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:02.879
the vast majority of the money that's in the foundation

60
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:06.360
is your money. The Listener's Foundation, that's what it is.

61
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:09.920
And as stewards are the foundation, it is our job

62
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:14.160
to then disperse the funds according to the bylaws that

63
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:18.240
were enacted by Russ, Martin and Trey years and years ago,

64
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:22.759
so that will be happening. And we also would received

65
00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:25.399
word that officer came to knows so while he was

66
00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:29.199
only with Terrell since July of this year, he was

67
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:35.800
prior to that a Dallas County Sheriff's deputy. So once again,

68
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:39.079
I mean, it's one of those situations that it's on

69
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:44.040
an outer area of what's considered DFW or the Metroplex,

70
00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.079
but this does fall within the geographical boundary of the

71
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:54.600
Foundation and will be issuing funds for his family. And

72
00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:03.720
this will be the fourth check that the Foundation will

73
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:08.920
have written since August, just since August, and it's the

74
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:13.720
fifth officer since August to fall in the line of duty.

75
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:17.800
So in that time, just since August, the Foundation has

76
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:24.439
issued four checks and in order to keep issuing those funds,

77
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:28.199
especially at the dollar amount at which we issue them,

78
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:32.120
which is forty thousand dollars. We need more money and

79
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:36.959
if you know, we'd like to continue to do that.

80
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:41.079
In order for us to do it, they're just you know,

81
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:43.439
you've got to have more money in it. That's the unfortunate,

82
00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:47.439
clear and cut reality. So if you would like to

83
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:50.959
donate to the RMS tree House Listeners Foundation, you may

84
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:53.160
do so. Go to Treehouse on air dot com, click

85
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:55.279
on Listeners Donation or the tab at the top. There

86
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:56.839
are all the ways to donate right there.

87
00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:01.439
And I'd like to say something about this, and we

88
00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:03.920
can we can edit this out, Dan, if you so choose,

89
00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:11.759
But so everyone understands, like even with the situation with

90
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:16.160
the Greenwelle officer, when someone passed away, had they stuck

91
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:18.759
their original will and not given their entire estate to

92
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:22.199
the owner of an adult theater, we probably could have

93
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:24.000
extended the parameters of the foundation.

94
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:37.680
I thought about that occasionally. I have, so just a

95
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:46.920
whole lot of head nodding going on here. So yeah,

96
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:50.439
if you would like to donate, where you know, the

97
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:54.439
money goes to the families of fallen police officers and firefighters,

98
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:58.560
in DFW. You can do so go to Treehouse on

99
00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:01.040
Air dot com and click on Listener's Foundation or the

100
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:04.120
little tab at the very top that says RMS Treehouse

101
00:08:04.199 --> 00:08:06.519
Listeners Foundation Donate tab. You can do that right there.

102
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.639
In the meantime, we still have a show to do

103
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:14.920
and we are going to do it and while remembering,

104
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:18.399
you know, the fallen officer and those that have fallen

105
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:22.839
before him, We'll continue to do what we do and

106
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:26.079
hopes that we can continue to do those other things

107
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:30.360
that we also do. Which sounds very vague if taken

108
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:32.320
out of context, but trust me, it's it's not all

109
00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:36.799
just you know, boogers and farts. There's also some actual

110
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:39.279
philanthropy going on around here.

124

132
00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:51.440

00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:53.519

for a few days. We've we've we found Raj and

160
00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:22.120
h or he found himself whatever it was. Uh So

161
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:24.679
if you saw him on somewhere along the I thirty

162
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:27.320
five corridor and pointed him in the right direction. We

163
00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:31.200
appreciate that, and uh, we're glad to and we're glad

164
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.840
to have you back inside the treehouse, buddy, Thank you,

165
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:37.120
bud h. I figured we could do something to celebrate

166
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:41.240
your grand return inside the treehouse. Who wants to play

167
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:42.120
wrong answers only?

168
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:44.879
Oh yeah, let's do it all right.

169
00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:49.519
It is time or wrong answers only inside the one

170
00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:51.840
and only tree House. That is where I will In

171
00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:56.240
today's edition, a holiday edition, pose a headline to Trey

172
00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:58.840
and Raj and ask them to fill in the blank

173
00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:04.720
with a wrong an So, gentlemen, let's get started. A

174
00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:10.320
Florida man honors a classic holiday movie with a giant

175
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:21.000
replica blank in his yard. A Florida man, hang, I've

176
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:23.960
already forgot what it was. A Florida man honors a

177
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:29.559
classic holiday movie with a giant replica blank in his yard.

178
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.840
I need your wrong answers only, Raj? What do you have?

179
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:38.679
Can can we say? Dild?

180
00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:40.919
I don't know?

181
00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:43.919
Can you I just that's what my guess would be,

182
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:46.960
is that all right? Giant replica dildo in his yard A.

183
00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:49.919
Nice big holiday dong. No, that is not the correct answer,

184
00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:54.639
but that makes it a wrong answer, So good job, Trey.

185
00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:58.879
A Florida man honors a classic holiday movie with a

186
00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:02.519
giant replica blank in his yard. I need your wrong answer.

187
00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:04.480
Only knock a Tony tower.

188
00:13:04.919 --> 00:13:08.200
Ooh, that is a wrong answer, which makes it a

189
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:11.000
correct answer on wrong answers only. And my god, this

190
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:15.360
game show is confusing. I'm glad I'm not drunk. The

191
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:20.840
correct answer is. A Florida man honors a classic holiday

192
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:26.480
movie with a giant replica leg lamp in his yard.

193
00:13:27.320 --> 00:13:30.600
Ah. Yes, from the movie you guys love so much?

194
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:33.120
You still have never seen a Christmas story?

195
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:35.840
Have you? I did? I watched it all.

196
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:37.480
That's right, I forgot. Yeah, you did watch it, but

197
00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:41.080
you hated it, Yes, trampling all over all over my

198
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:42.240
loving nostalgia.

199
00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:46.879
Yes, and I drunkenly told Peter Billingsley that I didn't

200
00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:47.600
like the movie.

201
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:50.080
That's right. This sort of this is this is not

202
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:52.559
just the time of year to celebrate the birth of Christ, allegedly,

203
00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:57.600
but also to celebrate the time that Raj once told

204
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:00.759
the actor who portrayed Ralphie that movie doctor.

205
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:03.720
Yes, and he was mad for a second, but he

206
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:05.879
said the same thing. He goes when did you watch it?

207
00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:08.000
And I said a couple of weeks ago. He goes,

208
00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:08.919
that's why you didn't like it?

209
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:12.039
Yeah, because you were how old when you watched it?

210
00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:16.360
Forty five for four? Yeah?

211
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:18.279
Had you seen it when you were four or five,

212
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:19.679
you might have loved it?

213
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:28.080
Yeah? Yeah, really really from Chile? How dumb your dad?

214
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:28.879
I'm with Raj.

215
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:30.120
I think it's a horrible movie.

216
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:31.480
Thank you so much?

217
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:34.080
How dare you?

218
00:14:34.200 --> 00:14:40.399
Yes, Vindicator, have never understood people's love and obsession with

219
00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:40.960
that movie.

220
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:44.840
A Christmas Story is not a horrible movie. Zombieavers is

221
00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:48.240
a horrible movie. A Christmas Story is a childhood classic.

222
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:51.279
I would rather watch Zombieavers.

223
00:14:52.480 --> 00:15:00.960
Twenty four hours on Christmas Day or whatever it is.

224
00:14:55.759 --> 00:15:03.639
Then that crap movie. But the kid who plays the

225
00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:05.159
and it.

226
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.039
He follows me on Instagram, so he kind of likes

227
00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:10.399
my post from here every now and again. So Zach something,

228
00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:13.159
I can't remember his name, I know you're talking about.

229
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.639
Yeah, well, you know what, I'll let the local news

230
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:20.159
experts take it from here, telling us about the gentleman

231
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:26.039
in Florida who has the twenty foot leg lamp shrine

232
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:28.679
to a Christmas story in his yard. Fore Man and

233
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:32.080
Neptune Beach took his love of the nineteen eightiest Christmas movie.

234
00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:33.720
By the way, if you ever wonder what happens to

235
00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:36.679
old strip club DJs, occasionally they end up as TV.

236
00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:40.159
Anchors, and so does the old strippers apparently.

237
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:47.759
I bet they were great at the Platinum Club together nineteen.

238
00:15:49.399 --> 00:15:51.200
I could just hear him calling for the shot specials

239
00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:54.039
now fore Man and Neptune Beach took his love en

240
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:56.399
eighties Christmas movie to the next level.

241
00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:57.200
Yeah you know it.

242
00:15:57.559 --> 00:16:00.759
He recreated the leg lamp from A Christmas Story, but

243
00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:02.759
made it larger than life.

244
00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:12.519
This is Gary and Cinnamon from Yes from the news

245
00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:14.759
for Jacksonville News Station.

246
00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:18.399
You're looking at an exact repica of the leg lamp

247
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:23.159
from a Christmas Story. It is four percent bigger than

248
00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:25.080
the one that appears in the movie.

249
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:26.440
So it's twenty feet tall.

250
00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:30.559
How convenient twenty feet tall happens to be four hundred

251
00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:35.799
and twenty percent larger than the original from the film

252
00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:38.080
Florida's going to Florida each and every time.

253
00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:42.759
Yeah, that's just that's when you have too much money.

254
00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:45.279
I don't think that's a whole lot of money. Because

255
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.000
this guy, he did it himself. This was a holiday

256
00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:50.480
DIY project. Here let him. Let him tell you all

257
00:16:50.519 --> 00:16:55.240
the the parts that went into making his homemade twenty

258
00:16:55.279 --> 00:17:00.360
foot leg lamp, which if you notice around the lower

259
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:03.480
leg of the leg lamp, there's a replica Ralphie in

260
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:05.640
the bunny suit hugging the lower part of the leg.

261
00:17:08.759 --> 00:17:12.440
This is golf netting that I bought off Amazon's. It

262
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:13.559
was like ten dollars.

263
00:17:13.839 --> 00:17:17.680
Yep, the fringe or you catch that. So golf netting

264
00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:21.759
is what makes up the fish net, and then you

265
00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:24.119
got fringe for the edge of the lamp.

266
00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:28.119
Teenage fringe is the half mile of that. Everyone's decorating

267
00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.319
their houses, and I thought it'd be fun to have

268
00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:32.759
like like a neighborhood like competition who could have like

269
00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:36.599
the best Christmas decorations. And I was tossing attorney one

270
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:38.839
night and then I had like this epiphany. As a

271
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:41.880
kid in like the eighties, like going to see two

272
00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:44.839
and three movies in a weekend, and now like the

273
00:17:44.920 --> 00:17:46.920
movies just don't.

274
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:47.720
Really do it.

275
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:51.960
People come by and like they're sometimes their kids haven't

276
00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:54.160
seen the movie, and they're like, oh no, we got

277
00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:55.799
to go home. We're going to force you to watch

278
00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:58.559
this movie, a forty year old movie with no CGI

279
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:01.799
and people are still courting it forty years later.

280
00:18:02.519 --> 00:18:05.680
It's interesting. So he's got golf netting for the fish net.

281
00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:10.359
Then he's got a fringe half mile of fringe around

282
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:13.799
the bottom edge of the lamp. And I'm guessing the

283
00:18:13.920 --> 00:18:19.200
lamp shade is made from uh SpaceX robot parachutes or

284
00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:22.119
maybe just left over from the Columbia disaster.

285
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:23.799
Oh Jesus.

286
00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:33.400
Uh yeah, it's that's when you have too much time

287
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:36.759
and money. That's what it was. And he's tossing and

288
00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:38.240
turning and had an epiphany and that's what he came

289
00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:38.480
up with.

290
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:43.480
Thank he's sm smoke a second bowl and then.

291
00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:45.680
Yeah, that's what I was about to say, like, that's

292
00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:47.920
that's a that's a that's a weird thought.

293
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:51.119
Yeah, is what makes that happen. The troubling thing for

294
00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:53.480
me is the the news crew lets him go on

295
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.559
and describing what he used to make the leg lamp.

296
00:18:57.640 --> 00:18:59.680
But I don't see the portion in the piece where

297
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:01.960
they asked him about what do you use to make that?

298
00:19:02.079 --> 00:19:02.400
Kid?

299
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:06.319
Like did someone go up to that that Ralphie in

300
00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:09.440
the bunny costume and poke him just to make sure,

301
00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:14.279
it's not somebody's kid, it is Florida.

302
00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:18.400
Yeah, I mean yeah, you know, part time, part time job,

303
00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:19.839
acting gig.

304
00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:23.079
Or the fact that that shoe is big enough to

305
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:25.160
sleep in, which is maybe the reason why this dude

306
00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:28.759
was tossing and turning all night. He was trying to

307
00:19:28.759 --> 00:19:30.039
figure out what am I going to do with this

308
00:19:30.079 --> 00:19:30.839
big old shoe?

309
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.960
Ah, I do, I do think you were unfair though

310
00:19:33.960 --> 00:19:38.480
when you said disparaging the Jacksonville News team saying they

311
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:41.559
were former you know, strip club DJ and dancer. I

312
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:43.759
think they might be current and you know they just

313
00:19:43.799 --> 00:19:45.920
got off shift and then went directly in the morning show.

314
00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:49.920
You know what, You're right, I have assumed too much.

315
00:20:00.599 --> 00:20:02.400
You're listening to the Treehouse.

316
00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:11.640

322
00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:27.279
house in Dallas, Jacqueline, you came out a few times

323
00:20:27.319 --> 00:20:30.400
to help us with some issues and your response time

324
00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:33.359
was phenomenal. And it wasn't just because it was me.

325
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:35.880
It was because that's the kind of company you run.

326

Well, I mean, the reality of it is is that

329
00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:46.640
plumbing is unfortunately a need and not so much a want. Yes,

330
00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:49.960
you can want to remodel the bathroom and that's not pressing,

331
00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:53.839
but typically when it comes to service or leak investigations,

332
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:56.640
et cetera, et cetera, if you've got to stoppage on

333
00:20:56.720 --> 00:21:00.720
the mainline and you don't know and you keep putting

334
00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:05.880
liquid or you know, waste into the drains, if it

335
00:21:05.920 --> 00:21:08.240
has nowhere to go, we'll come back in the house.

336
00:21:08.480 --> 00:21:11.440
And at that point in time, it's no longer a want,

337
00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:14.359
it's a need, and that sort of thing can't wait.

338
00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:18.359
When you have those emergencies, you have got to figure

339
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:20.519
out how to manage the crew so that you can

340
00:21:20.640 --> 00:21:22.319
have the best response time.

341
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:24.559
That's right, and they'll show up and they'll do it quickly.

342

354

are inside the treehouse. You are welcome. I'm Dan along

355
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:16.680
with Trey and Raj. Are you a VIP at the cemetery?

356
00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:17.920
Hm?

357
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:22.960
The uh? The grave is about to get crunk y'all

358
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:30.400
because in England, a unique cemetery says grieving relatives must

359
00:22:30.440 --> 00:22:37.279
pay for VIP passes to visit graves. I don't know

360
00:22:37.319 --> 00:22:39.200
if I've ever had to get on the list to

361
00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:44.119
see Grandma before, but if she starts fist bumping out

362
00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:45.160
of that grave, I'm out.

363
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:48.000
I hate to be the bouncer.

364
00:22:50.079 --> 00:22:53.160
If you have a VIP section, you gotta have a bouncer.

365
00:22:53.200 --> 00:22:55.039
There's gotta be a guy with a headset and the

366
00:22:55.079 --> 00:22:58.559
clipboard and maybe even a velvet road.

367
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:04.240
Yeah, bottle service, you gotta have. You gotta pop those bottles.

368
00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:07.440
It's gonna look weird to people in the regular uh

369
00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:10.519
section of the cemetery to see you popping bottles next

370
00:23:10.519 --> 00:23:14.400
to grandma. But until until you've experienced it, I guess

371
00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:15.039
you just don't know.

372
00:23:16.039 --> 00:23:17.640
Yeah, that's you know, that's when you're like, this is

373
00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:18.480
how she would have wanted.

374
00:23:20.119 --> 00:23:21.400
I mean, I think it's got to have, you know,

375
00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:27.160
graves or like that one we saw where the guys

376
00:23:27.160 --> 00:23:28.920
in the casket, you know, like it's a taxi and

377
00:23:28.960 --> 00:23:31.559
it's spinning around. I mean, there's gotta be some uh

378
00:23:31.759 --> 00:23:35.279
you know, some motions, some theatrics going on here, you know,

379
00:23:35.279 --> 00:23:37.519
to give it that true VIP experience.

380
00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:43.359
That makes sense. Like fog machines, Yeah, light bark barklers.

381
00:23:43.559 --> 00:23:45.200
I don't know if I go with the black lights

382
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:45.960
as much.

383
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:51.039
I would hate for shell people.

384
00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:55.599
Yeah, to tell people, what do you do in the graveyard?

385
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:58.359
DJ, That's what I That's what I do for a living.

386
00:24:03.160 --> 00:24:06.079
They always they always to stand Yeah, to stand out,

387
00:24:06.079 --> 00:24:08.920
You've got to carve out your own your own niche there.

388
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:13.920
What's the playlist I got we need to figure that out.

389
00:24:20.240 --> 00:24:22.799
Hey, maybe that news guy in Florida is also the

390
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:30.480
graveside DJ. Ladies and gentlemen, got breaking out, My broke off.

391
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:35.200
It's time.

392
00:24:35.480 --> 00:24:39.519
It's time to say good bye to Grandma.

393
00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:44.000
Got shot specials mm hmmm.

394
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:46.920
Five dollars fireball, not just for you, but just in

395
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:49.640
case she comes back to life.

396
00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:54.119
Five dollars fireball, because that's where she's going.

397
00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:06.720
Yeah, Granny was kind of a bitch, but it really is.

398
00:25:06.759 --> 00:25:10.799
No one said this is this is? This is From England,

399
00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:14.640
a cemetery has started charging five pounds per visit to

400
00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:18.319
their loved ones graves. Grieving relatives can still access the

401
00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:23.359
Garden of Remembrance for free between nine am and three

402
00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:26.559
pm Monday to Friday, but after nineteen years in operation,

403
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:29.920
the graveyard will soon require the purchase of a one

404
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:37.519
off VIP pass for visits outside normal operating hours. This

405
00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:40.960
costs five pounds to visit a grave or cremation plot,

406
00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:44.599
and ten pounds per person to visit the rose garden.

407
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:49.960
Oh all right, Electric gates will prevent anyone without a

408
00:25:50.039 --> 00:25:53.599
VIP pass from accessing the grounds. Isn't that as wasn't

409
00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:55.880
that a section of Thriller with Michael Jackson.

410
00:25:59.519 --> 00:26:03.079
I mean, so if you get them cremated and keep

411
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:04.519
them at home, you're just having a house.

412
00:26:04.359 --> 00:26:12.640
Party, whereas Kidd and Play would call it up the

413
00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:18.640
Jama Jammie jam.

425
00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:15.000
Are you in the mood for some ode to filthy

426
00:27:15.079 --> 00:27:18.480
clogged toilette? I know it sounds like an odd question,

427
00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:24.599
but uh, you have Miller High Life to think, because

428
00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:29.759
Miller Highlife is set to release barfume that smells exactly

429
00:27:29.920 --> 00:27:35.079
like a dive bar. You're excited. Yeah. The scent of

430
00:27:35.119 --> 00:27:40.440
the so called dive barfume blends cedarwood and pechuli to

431
00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:43.960
recreate the smell of a bar counter, tobacco and leather

432
00:27:44.039 --> 00:27:47.440
to evoke those worn in leather barstools, sea salt for

433
00:27:47.480 --> 00:27:51.400
the basket of fries, and popcorn, and champac blossom to

434
00:27:51.559 --> 00:27:54.160
replicate the smell of Miller High Life.

435
00:27:55.240 --> 00:28:00.240
Yes, that's shit, bes you want to replica at the

436
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:04.400
smell of a dive bar, stale beer, fabuloso and vomit.

437
00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:08.920
And some cigarette yeah, cigarette smoke.

438
00:28:08.880 --> 00:28:11.839
Yeah, some stale cigarettes. Yeah, yep, that's it. That that's

439
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:14.480
the concoction right there. It just doesn't sound as good

440
00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:21.039
as cedar wood and you know and other things. But yeah,

441
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:22.920
this is this is one of those things where it's

442
00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:27.240
it's free marketing for Miller High Life, and if we're

443
00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:30.720
being honest, if they have an actual product of it available,

444
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:33.480
it makes for a great holiday gag gift. The only

445
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:35.240
down say is, I don't think they're going to be

446
00:28:35.319 --> 00:28:39.519
available for your white elephant parties. I don't think they're

447
00:28:39.559 --> 00:28:42.440
going to be actually available till next year.

448
00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:45.000
Okay.

449
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:47.119
They say gen Z is really big into their their

450
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:52.200
colognes and perfumes, so maybe that's it's their way of

451
00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:53.079
bringing the.

452
00:28:53.039 --> 00:28:53.720
High Life back.

453
00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:58.400
Especially gen Z doesn't know what the high life is

454
00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:00.440
exactly they think they know.

455
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:04.839
Maybe they're trying to get high Life. Is, you know,

456
00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:09.000
to be with to gen z what you PBR became

457
00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:09.640
to hipsters?

458
00:29:09.880 --> 00:29:10.279
I don't know.

459
00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:12.200
Yeah, it's very possible.

460
00:29:13.079 --> 00:29:14.599
Is the champagne of beers?

461
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:19.559
Yeah, Miller Highlight the champagne of beers, whereas like PBR

462
00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:23.519
was sort of like the go to hipster beer or

463
00:29:23.559 --> 00:29:27.519
the millennial's choice to be sort of like the down

464
00:29:27.599 --> 00:29:30.000
home beer choice. But at the end of the day,

465
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:32.839
it's like at a dive bar, the standard dream quarter

466
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:38.119
is beer in a shot. So I mean it's whatever

467
00:29:38.240 --> 00:29:44.000
cheap beer and well whiskey you got, but it's apparently

468
00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:46.839
just sixty dollars a bottle, and I take it back.

469
00:29:46.960 --> 00:29:51.000
Apparently it is going to be in time for the holidays.

470
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:56.440
They say. This bar fume cologne from Miller High Life

471
00:29:56.599 --> 00:30:03.440
is currently sold out, but it's also I just I

472
00:30:03.519 --> 00:30:07.160
just trying to find it. Give me a second. High

473
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:09.440
Life is bringing that dive bar scent, you know, and

474
00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:12.279
love to your home with High Life Dive bar fume

475
00:30:12.359 --> 00:30:14.039
just in time for the holidays. Happy high Life. That's

476
00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:17.759
according to the Fragrances. Fragrances listing. The Champagne of Beers

477
00:30:17.759 --> 00:30:20.640
has other beer themed holiday offerings in it shop, including

478
00:30:21.039 --> 00:30:25.799
Miller High Life stockings and Christmas tree ornaments. Instagram users

479
00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:27.839
had a field day in the comments of the post

480
00:30:27.880 --> 00:30:30.880
announcing the cologne, with one commenter saying, this was my

481
00:30:31.000 --> 00:30:33.880
scent for seven years. Trey's got you beat.

482
00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:36.720
That was his for like twenty I did not drink

483
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:38.960
High Life.

484
00:30:41.960 --> 00:30:44.119
That's drug he really was.

485
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:45.079
I had standards.

486
00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:49.680
Yeah, it's not like it's not because your your haunt

487
00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:54.200
was not technically a dive bar. It was the Loon

488
00:30:54.359 --> 00:30:57.440
Mayshi Rest in Peace and Uptown Dallas for for many

489
00:30:57.480 --> 00:31:01.519
many years, and to me, the Loan was not a

490
00:31:01.720 --> 00:31:07.799
dive bar. It was a sort of under the radar

491
00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:12.279
establishment because I mean the Loon didn't even have a sign.

492
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:13.759
You just had to know where it was, and you

493
00:31:13.799 --> 00:31:16.160
had to know what it was. If you walked into

494
00:31:16.200 --> 00:31:19.119
that place accidentally, everyone can smell it on you, ironically.

495
00:31:21.359 --> 00:31:23.680
But I actually looked up because I was curious, and

496
00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:26.400
it's like, okay, well, what actually constitutes a dive bar?

497
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:31.519
So I asked Google, and according to the AI overview,

498
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:35.640
a dive bar is a casual, inexpensive drinking establishment that's

499
00:31:35.640 --> 00:31:39.559
often old fashioned, dimly lit, and has a local clientele.

500
00:31:41.920 --> 00:31:44.480
They also say here for the ambiance, I'm sorry for

501
00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:47.119
the atmosphere. Dive bars are typically small, eclectic, and have

502
00:31:47.160 --> 00:31:49.640
shabby or data decor. They may also have me on

503
00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:52.720
beer sides. Drinks. Dive bars typically serve a cheap, simple

504
00:31:52.759 --> 00:31:55.319
selection of drinks such as well drinks and beer. The

505
00:31:55.359 --> 00:31:58.279
client tell dive bars are off in neighborhood institutions where

506
00:31:58.319 --> 00:32:02.839
local residents gathered to drink and socialized payment. Dive bars

507
00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:06.000
are often cash only. Other features. Dive bars may also

508
00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:08.880
sell packaged beer and have an ATM in the back,

509
00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:14.039
something that Texans you don't really understand. What Having a

510
00:32:14.079 --> 00:32:16.599
liquor store attached to a bar is not a thing

511
00:32:16.599 --> 00:32:22.440
in Texas. I've seen it in other places Florida, but yeah,

512
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:24.759
that's not a standard thing in Texas. But I love

513
00:32:24.759 --> 00:32:27.079
a good dive bar, but I don't want to smell

514
00:32:27.160 --> 00:32:31.640
like one because to me, another great indicator of a

515
00:32:31.680 --> 00:32:35.519
dive bar is no bathroom doors on the stalls. Of course,

516
00:32:35.519 --> 00:32:37.079
that could also be a gay bar. So it's just

517
00:32:37.119 --> 00:32:43.480
kind of you to each his own.

518
00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:46.079
Yeah, yeah, and you have.

519
00:32:46.039 --> 00:32:49.599
To have the old bartenders, you know, past their prime

520
00:32:50.079 --> 00:32:50.720
in the dive bar.

521
00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:54.240
Yeah, at a dive bar, the bartenders are not there

522
00:32:54.240 --> 00:32:55.160
for their looks.

523
00:32:55.559 --> 00:32:56.799
Yeah.

524
00:32:57.279 --> 00:32:59.680
In fact, their looks are typically more scowl.

525
00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:04.680
They don't want to eire either.

526
00:33:07.400 --> 00:33:08.880
No, most of the time they don't.

527
00:33:09.519 --> 00:33:10.319
What's next though?

528
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:13.440
Man is a glitter company gonna you know owe the

529
00:33:13.480 --> 00:33:14.039
strip club?

530
00:33:16.119 --> 00:33:24.839
Oh no, yeah, day ship, but they still use glitter.

531
00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:29.920
You've got You've got Lebrona James on the main stage

532
00:33:31.039 --> 00:33:35.839
glitter as she comes out that way. When you go

533
00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:38.720
back to the office, everybody knows where you were.

534
00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:47.839
Who are you wearing? Day shift for men?

danil Malley along with Trade Trenholm and Raj Sharma. In

544
00:34:36.559 --> 00:34:40.079
my Google searching about dive bars, there was another interesting

545
00:34:40.280 --> 00:34:43.079
result I wanted to share with you guys. And that

546
00:34:43.280 --> 00:34:49.599
was an article titled dirty, Dank and occasionally Dangerous that's

547
00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:53.840
supposedly describing dive bars. It also sounds a little bit

548
00:34:53.880 --> 00:34:57.000
like a diddy party.

549
00:34:57.880 --> 00:35:01.280
I'd just like to back up for one second.

550
00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:05.119
That too happens that you're you're.

551
00:35:05.159 --> 00:35:12.880
Googling of dive bars, right, did you do any actual research?

552
00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:13.960
Why?

553
00:35:14.000 --> 00:35:16.719
Why are you doing so many bunnier fingers? And you

554
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:21.400
quotes research? That's how research gets done. What do you

555
00:35:21.440 --> 00:35:21.920
want me to do?

556
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:27.559
Go to a library, No, go to a dive bar,

557
00:35:27.880 --> 00:35:29.960
because that's enough time in one.

558
00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:34.079
Really, really, I live at dive bars.

559
00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:34.480
I know.

560
00:35:34.519 --> 00:35:37.360
That's what I'm saying is you're having to google dive bar.

561
00:35:38.400 --> 00:35:41.199
I feel like I do that. No, no, no, see I

562
00:35:41.199 --> 00:35:43.199
I google it because I'm curious to see what the

563
00:35:43.199 --> 00:35:46.519
internet is going to say versus my own experiences. Because

564
00:35:46.559 --> 00:35:48.679
I know dive bars, I need to give you. I

565
00:35:48.679 --> 00:35:50.920
could give you a good list of them. Some of

566
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:53.679
my favorite bars are dive bars. By the way, do

567
00:35:53.679 --> 00:35:56.239
you know how dive bar got its original name? Because

568
00:35:56.280 --> 00:35:58.320
typically they were the basement bars off the side of

569
00:35:58.320 --> 00:36:02.800
the streets. Therefore, people would dive in to them.

570
00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:03.559
I got it.

571
00:36:04.039 --> 00:36:06.960
Yeah, you that's also why the doors need to be padded.

572
00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:12.480
So if you ever go into a bar and wonder

573
00:36:12.519 --> 00:36:14.559
why it's got padding on the outside, it's because there's

574
00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:19.320
a dive bar. That's so stupid. I just made that up.

575
00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:24.800
Okay, Yeah, I.

576
00:36:24.760 --> 00:36:26.039
Know it makes a lot of sense when you think

577
00:36:26.039 --> 00:36:28.039
about it, but no, I just I'm just I'm just

578
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:29.639
bulling all over the place here.

579
00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:33.480
Yeah, but you sold it. There was so much conviction

580
00:36:33.559 --> 00:36:34.599
behind when you said it.

581
00:36:34.880 --> 00:36:36.719
Look, it goes to show you can convince people of

582
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:38.920
damn near anything if you just say it properly.

583
00:36:39.639 --> 00:36:42.719
Yeah, okay, that's why they're called that.

584
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:46.360
Good to know now, the diving part, that part's real.

585
00:36:46.440 --> 00:36:47.440
The padded part is.

586
00:36:47.320 --> 00:36:49.280
What I made up. Oh gotcha, Okay, sorry.

587
00:36:50.280 --> 00:36:53.159
But at the same time, uh, it was also like

588
00:36:53.199 --> 00:36:56.159
a term I think that came around around prohibition era

589
00:36:56.320 --> 00:36:59.199
as well, so kind of diving at the same time.

590
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:02.280
Not everyone there, there's nothing conclusive about it in my

591
00:37:02.360 --> 00:37:04.800
online research. If I mean to use the bunny finger

592
00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:07.360
air quote tray air.

593
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:11.199
Quotes, I'm just pointing out you spent plenty of time

594
00:37:11.239 --> 00:37:12.880
in a dive bar. You really didn't need to google

595
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:13.400
a damn thing.

596
00:37:13.639 --> 00:37:15.480
You're right, I'm just s curious to the Internet says,

597
00:37:15.519 --> 00:37:15.880
that's all.

598
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:18.599
I just want to make sure it agreed with you.

599
00:37:19.199 --> 00:37:21.840
Yeah, pretty much. I needed to make sure there wasn't

600
00:37:21.880 --> 00:37:28.559
a comment section that needed to be set straight. All right.

601
00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:34.000
Today is Tuesday, December tenth, twenty twenty four. Let's celebrate

602
00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:39.000
with some birthdays. Raven Simone is thirty nine today. Got

603
00:37:39.000 --> 00:37:45.719
her start on The Cosby Show. Remember her. It's interesting.

604
00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:48.880
It's weird because I identified with her so much watching

605
00:37:48.960 --> 00:37:53.639
The Cosby Show, not because I was a little black girl,

606
00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:56.639
but because she and I are basically at the time,

607
00:37:56.679 --> 00:37:59.000
we were like close in age. Although now that I'm

608
00:37:59.039 --> 00:38:01.840
seeing this, this says it she's only thirty nine and

609
00:38:01.880 --> 00:38:03.960
so that makes me a few years older than her.

610
00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:07.760
But still, I just I was like, hell, someone kind

611
00:38:07.760 --> 00:38:10.320
of my age on that show. That's also one of

612
00:38:10.360 --> 00:38:12.199
the things that they used to gauge now if a

613
00:38:12.280 --> 00:38:14.239
show is on its last leg is when they start

614
00:38:14.280 --> 00:38:19.760
introducing new child characters. Trey, why are you looking at

615
00:38:19.800 --> 00:38:22.920
me like that? You're looking at like all skeptical, I mean,

616
00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:25.920
like you can't wait to cross examine me in front

617
00:38:25.960 --> 00:38:27.599
of a House Judiciary committee.

618
00:38:27.639 --> 00:38:32.199
It's just interesting you identified with Raven. Was she adopted?

619
00:38:34.199 --> 00:38:38.199
Maybe?

620
00:38:39.119 --> 00:38:41.199
I mean why not? Why not Kisha Knight poems? She

621
00:38:41.239 --> 00:38:42.559
would have been closer to your age.

622
00:38:44.000 --> 00:38:46.320
Oh you know what I got it confused. Keisha was

623
00:38:46.360 --> 00:38:49.960
the one that I identified with, Yeah, Raven Simone. Yeah,

624
00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:52.800
I didn't like her because she was the kind of

625
00:38:52.840 --> 00:38:55.400
the towerp. You're right, Keisha and I pulled him. She

626
00:38:55.440 --> 00:38:59.280
and I are like, yeah, she's the one.

627
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:01.800
I think Raven's someone's doing stand up now if I'm correct,

628
00:39:02.559 --> 00:39:04.920
If she's doing some stand up comedy out there.

629
00:39:05.320 --> 00:39:07.280
Well, it's better than the guy who played her dad

630
00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:09.519
on The Cosby Show. I think he's still a Trader Joe's.

631
00:39:11.599 --> 00:39:14.599
No, he got a gig. Tyler Perry signed him.

632
00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:16.559
Good for him, And let me just say not that

633
00:39:16.559 --> 00:39:18.559
there's anything wrong with that. Trader Joe's is great.

634
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:21.920
Yeah, I mean, where else can you have a face

635
00:39:21.960 --> 00:39:23.320
tattoo and be the general manager?

636
00:39:24.840 --> 00:39:31.440
Uh? Maybe as Bill Cosby selly. So everyone that came

637
00:39:31.440 --> 00:39:33.119
out of the woodwork is like, oh my god, that

638
00:39:33.159 --> 00:39:35.920
guy's working at Trader Joe's. Well would you wouldn't you

639
00:39:35.920 --> 00:39:38.199
prefer that versus how Bill Cosby ended up?

640
00:39:39.840 --> 00:39:40.039
Yeah?

641
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:42.280
But I wouldn't want to be Cosby's cell man. If

642
00:39:42.280 --> 00:39:43.920
you just walk in the first day and he's left, well,

643
00:39:43.920 --> 00:39:45.039
we'll see you put in pop.

644
00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:52.320
I'd actually be kind of excited because that means I

645
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:59.960
get to be the guy that chokes Cosby Damn Predator.

646
00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:04.039
Other birthdays today. Thank you Raven smoone for turning thirty

647
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:06.760

648
00:40:06.840 --> 00:40:14.480
Keisha Knight Beliea. Other birthdays today. Emmanuel Sheriki is forty nine.

649
00:40:15.159 --> 00:40:18.559

everything from Shakespeare to directing the first thor movie.

656
00:40:47.679 --> 00:40:48.559
Oh I did not know that.

657
00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:52.920
Yeah, And if I remember correctly, unless I missed a

658
00:40:52.920 --> 00:40:55.920
news story, I believe he and Emma Thompson are married.

659
00:40:55.960 --> 00:40:57.920
I don't think they've ever I think they're still together,

660
00:40:57.960 --> 00:41:01.960
So good on them making a Hollywood work. Susan Day,

death of his friend, who he thought was a burglar. Whoops.

666
00:41:23.639 --> 00:41:26.800
This is why I don't own guns. You'll never have

667
00:41:26.840 --> 00:41:27.920
to worry about that happening.

668
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:31.400
I agree. I think it's good that you don't own guns, Raj.

669
00:41:32.199 --> 00:41:34.079
But me and me and Trey, though, could walk into

670
00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:36.320
the same room armed and we're not going to shoot

671
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:36.639
each other.

672
00:41:39.440 --> 00:41:42.559
Yeah, But if he thinks you're an intruder and you're

673
00:41:42.599 --> 00:41:48.079
just stumbling in from a dive bar, and then Trey's like, oh,

674
00:41:48.199 --> 00:41:50.320
I'm getting broken into and you're like a lost my key.

675
00:41:51.239 --> 00:41:53.159
Trey knows it's me. He knows how he knows how

676
00:41:53.159 --> 00:41:58.519
I look and smell and act when I'm drunk. Although

677
00:41:58.559 --> 00:42:00.920
if it's either if if he gives me an option

678
00:42:01.079 --> 00:42:03.280
at him shooting me or taking me to an AA meeting,

679
00:42:03.320 --> 00:42:04.880
I'll probably ask for the bullet.

680
00:42:08.320 --> 00:42:10.960
Let's Dan'll be wearing his dive bar scent, so I'll

681
00:42:11.000 --> 00:42:12.159
smell him from a mile away.

682
00:42:14.199 --> 00:42:15.000
I'm sick.

Air dot com.

684
00:42:36.639 --> 00:42:38.400
You're listening to the Treehouse.

685
00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:44.719
Visit us online at Treehouse on air dot com.

686
00:42:44.920 --> 00:42:47.880
I don't want there to be any misinformation out there

687
00:42:48.119 --> 00:42:50.760
and then you attribute it later to those idiots in

688
00:42:50.800 --> 00:42:53.400
the treehouse. I want to make sure you can properly

689
00:42:53.519 --> 00:42:58.320
define dive bar. So I re googled it, or as

690
00:42:58.320 --> 00:43:01.880
some people would say, I researched it, and according to

691
00:43:01.960 --> 00:43:07.039
the AI overview from Google, a dive bar okay. The

692
00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:10.440
term dive was first used in the United States in

693
00:43:10.480 --> 00:43:15.079
the eighteen eighties to describe disreputable places that were often

694
00:43:15.119 --> 00:43:18.400
in basements. The precise definition of a dive bar is

695
00:43:18.519 --> 00:43:22.320
rarely agreed upon and is the subject of spirited debates.

696
00:43:23.679 --> 00:43:25.760
I see what he did there. Some say that a

697
00:43:25.800 --> 00:43:29.559
dive bar is mostly about feel, while others say it's

698
00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:33.480
a place where you see the same folks day after day.

699
00:43:36.599 --> 00:43:38.639
I would like to point out that if you're going

700
00:43:38.679 --> 00:43:43.639
around feeling a dive bar, you don't belong there. Yeah,

701
00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:45.719
because most of the dive bars I've been to you

702
00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:47.440
don't want to touch those walls.

703
00:43:51.639 --> 00:43:53.760
Doesn't say anything about sticky floors, or.

704
00:43:55.719 --> 00:43:57.920
It doesn't say anything in there about sticky floors. But

705
00:43:57.960 --> 00:44:00.239
I can give you like a quick I guess. I

706
00:44:00.239 --> 00:44:03.239
guess we can all because we've all spent way too

707
00:44:03.280 --> 00:44:05.039
much time in bars, and we spent a lot of

708
00:44:05.039 --> 00:44:07.559
time in dive bars as well. When we've run the Gambu,

709
00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:10.400
we've gone high end, low end, we've even hung out

710
00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:13.159
in the middle some but a good dive bar. I

711
00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:15.639
think we all know that there are certain tenets, one

712
00:44:15.639 --> 00:44:21.840
of which is a strong, poor, full of locals, neighborhood establishment.

713
00:44:21.880 --> 00:44:24.320
To me, those are some easy dive bar type things.

714
00:44:24.360 --> 00:44:27.039
And one of the things we read earlier was maybe

715
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:31.599
sort of an eclectic or old decor.

716
00:44:32.199 --> 00:44:36.519
That's to me two things that you have to have.

717
00:44:37.039 --> 00:44:40.119
Dark and a little bit dated and a little dated.

718
00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:45.079
Yes, dark and dated, which is also Raja's hinge profile.

719
00:44:50.599 --> 00:44:55.239
You beat me to it. I was gonna say that

720
00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:56.360
was my nickname in college.

721
00:44:59.360 --> 00:45:03.480
Also true. All all those things work. It's almost like

722
00:45:03.639 --> 00:45:06.199
it's almost like an ad libs for punchline. Just insert

723
00:45:06.199 --> 00:45:09.960
your own right there. Uh yeah, there's the The sticky

724
00:45:10.000 --> 00:45:11.320
floor thing is part of it because a lot of

725
00:45:11.320 --> 00:45:15.400
times dive bars aren't necessarily the cleanest of bars, because

726
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:20.280
they're they're big fans of if they if they if

727
00:45:20.320 --> 00:45:22.559
they wipe it down with a bar rag, then it's clean.

728
00:45:23.079 --> 00:45:26.079
Even if that bar rag, even if that bar rag

729
00:45:26.079 --> 00:45:27.840
could itself order a drink legally.

730
00:45:32.000 --> 00:45:33.519
Uh, there's a popcorn machine.

731
00:45:33.559 --> 00:45:35.320
I can always tell if you walk in and there's

732
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:38.000
a popcorn machine in there, I'm like, they're they're not,

733
00:45:38.119 --> 00:45:40.440
They're not really worried about you eating mm hmm.

734
00:45:40.880 --> 00:45:43.880
I also like and and this is one of those

735
00:45:43.880 --> 00:45:45.760
things that's not common in Texas, but I've seen it

736
00:45:45.800 --> 00:45:48.239
in my travels around the world. And by the world,

737
00:45:48.320 --> 00:45:52.519
I mean Michigan, uh, which is uh and and actually

738
00:45:53.840 --> 00:45:56.880
a portion of Washington State I've seen this as well,

739
00:45:57.280 --> 00:46:02.199
where they have uh the grill for the food is

740
00:46:02.239 --> 00:46:03.840
basically next to the bar.

741
00:46:04.960 --> 00:46:05.360
Yeah.

742
00:46:05.400 --> 00:46:09.599
Oh, you may actually have the bartender frying some fries

743
00:46:09.840 --> 00:46:11.440
next to making your drink.

744
00:46:12.880 --> 00:46:15.679
Yeah, solid totinos.

745
00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:17.559
If there's a if there's a if there's a pizza

746
00:46:17.679 --> 00:46:19.840
little toaster oven there.

747
00:46:20.519 --> 00:46:22.280
I think I think I think that's going more uh

748
00:46:22.440 --> 00:46:25.440
more upscale, because I mean, if if you if you

749
00:46:25.480 --> 00:46:27.519
have a bar that's got a pizza oven, I mean,

750
00:46:27.559 --> 00:46:29.599
come on, I.

751
00:46:29.599 --> 00:46:32.760
Said, dollars.

752
00:46:34.599 --> 00:46:41.960
That did that place sounds awesome. That might that might

753
00:46:41.960 --> 00:46:44.000
be considered a dive bar. But I mean, I'll tell

754
00:46:44.000 --> 00:46:45.880
you right now some of my favorite dive bars. If

755
00:46:45.880 --> 00:46:48.800
they had a Totino's coming out of a toaster oven,

756
00:46:49.039 --> 00:46:55.880
oh yeah, I'd probably live there. Although it does make

757
00:46:55.920 --> 00:46:59.199
you wonder, how is it that the Lakewood Landing in Dallas,

758
00:46:59.239 --> 00:47:02.000
how do they not have a Totino's coming out of

759
00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:04.639
a toaster revenant? That's really about the only thing they're missing.

760
00:47:10.960 --> 00:47:12.440
They're busy with those little corn dogs.

761
00:47:12.480 --> 00:47:15.000
I guess damn those are.

762
00:47:14.840 --> 00:47:18.920
Good corn dog bites. Mmmmmmm solid.

763
00:47:20.400 --> 00:47:21.760
Also some damn good wings.

764
00:47:23.079 --> 00:47:24.880
Oh okay, so that's not diving.

765
00:47:25.000 --> 00:47:28.760
Then the food is obvious.

766
00:47:28.840 --> 00:47:29.400
You get.

767
00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:34.239
Like, not only are there photos up of the regulars,

768
00:47:34.239 --> 00:47:36.800
but the regulars and the photos of them are now

769
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:46.840
turning into a memorial wall. That's another big indicator of

770
00:47:46.880 --> 00:47:51.719
a dive bar, like when the barstools say, here, Sat Jeff,

771
00:47:57.480 --> 00:48:04.599
We're damn this corner of the bar. Dedicated to raj
