1
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:30.359
Welcome into the Treehouse. I'm Daniel
Malley along with Trey Trenholm, and because

2
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:35.679
of a little uh casting shuffle,
we are joined in the Treehouse today by

3
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:40.960
actor, comedian and friend, longtime
friend of the show and the Treehouse,

4
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:44.759
Raj Charma. Hello, Raj,
Hi, buddies, what's going on?

5
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:51.399
Oh? You know, just three
card monte with heads. Yeah, I

6
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:55.840
see that. It is. It
is. It's been too long, but

7
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:59.840
it is uh great to see you
and talk to you, Raj. Yeah.

8
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.520
And um, are you guys both
wearing the same color, by the

9
00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:06.480
way, or did we plan this
out? It's the No, it wasn't

10
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:08.400
a plan, but I guess Tray
and I SYNCD up and it kind of

11
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:12.159
works out because it actually is uh. Even though we don't do video on

12
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:15.959
the show, we use it during
the show to look and talk to one

13
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:19.920
another. Maybe maybe one day we'll
throw some video around. It looked like

14
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.920
you guys sort of like a like
a like a best Buy competitor and like

15
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:26.239
this is the break. They're like, okay, let's get let's let's get

16
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:30.359
a show out. Let's do this
real quick before we gotta But instead of

17
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:36.040
blue shirts, we're gonna go with
purple, purple. But it actually is

18
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:41.200
kind of fitting into our personalities because
I'd say traditionally, Tray is a little

19
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:44.879
more a little more proper and traditional. I'm a little more laid back.

20
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:49.719
So I've got a T shirt that's
purple and Trays purple. Oh that's a

21
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:53.719
polo Oh of course, of course. But to Tray's credit, he's much

22
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:59.359
more relaxed now. I think in
what has happened is since he got out

23
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:04.000
of the corporate world, and maybe
it's also related to him being sober now

24
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:07.919
for but six seven years, Trey, yeah, almost seven. Trey's uniform

25
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:17.800
used to be button up shirt,
jeans and his boots. Now Tray is

26
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:22.159
so relaxed now that he doesn't drink
or work in the corporate world anymore,

27
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:30.319
which are probably somewhat related. Now
he's polo U khaki shorts and some on

28
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:35.800
running sneaks. Oh that's nice.
Do you look like you could like you

29
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:39.319
could from the waist up, you
dress like you could be deposed? Uh,

30
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:44.960
and then and then and then in
your whole out it's like, hey,

31
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:52.479
if golf breaks out, I'm ready
to go. Sadly, this is

32
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:57.280
a sad truth. It was last
summer. So it's almost a year that

33
00:02:57.479 --> 00:03:00.319
I actually started wearing T shirts.
Other than that, for twenty plus years,

34
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:05.879
no one had ever seen me in
anything but a college. So was

35
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.319
it like so like okay, so
when you would go home, like would

36
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:13.120
you like close the blinds, like
turn on some like really sexy music and

37
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.680
throw a T shirt on and just
like like like just stare at yourself like

38
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:22.479
this is what this is the real
meat, that exotic, it's a It's

39
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:27.560
just it's a strange quirk I picked
up from my dad. My dad out

40
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:31.240
in public always had a collar shirt
on and I and honestly, I just

41
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:35.479
got tired during the summer it's so
damn hot. I was like, I

42
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:38.159
wanted to breatheable shirt. Finally,
I was like, screw it, I'll

43
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.759
just start wearing T shirts. I
was like, these are comfy. So

44
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:44.560
you've been so you've been seventy since
you're a kid. I just need something

45
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:50.280
breathable. And it's weird too,
because I have now seen Trey at the

46
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:55.039
three different stages of his fashion life. So stage one, back when he

47
00:03:55.080 --> 00:04:00.039
worked in real estate, was a
really nice suit because a lot of the

48
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:03.879
real estate that Trey did when he
was in real estate in Dallas. Four

49
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:08.199
Worth was pretty specific. It was
high end real estate, and a lot

50
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:11.439
of it was in you know,
Highland Park, University Park. And you

51
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:15.199
can't walk in there like looking like
you just you know, rolled out of

52
00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:17.839
the Dart bus station. You've got
to look the part. So Trey war

53
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:23.000
suits, and even when he started
in radio, he would do real estate

54
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:26.240
some then he'd come to radio and
he'd still be wearing a suit and tie.

55
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:30.480
Then he stopped doing real estate,
did radio only. That's when phase

56
00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:33.680
two of Trey's fashion life began.
That was the button down shirt, the

57
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:39.480
jeans, and the cowboy boots.
Then he left radio, stopped drinking again,

58
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:44.560
probably related and because he didn't need
to anymore, and started working in

59
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:46.399
the bar businesses like okay, well, you know, cowboy boots not the

60
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:51.600
most comfortable service industry shoes. So
now Trey's running a hugely successful not anymore

61
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:56.519
because he quit. But then he
started running a hugely successful Dallas night spot,

62
00:04:56.839 --> 00:05:00.199
and he went more relaxed. He
went polo with he shorts and comfy

63
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:06.360
running shoes. Yeah, the sad
thing that really precipitated me not wearing boots

64
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:11.199
anymore. It's just I've hit an
age and for some reason, all of

65
00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:14.279
a sudden, my feet started killing
me. I'm like, screw that is

66
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:18.000
old. Are you old enough to
know that Doctor Shouls doesn't do insults for

67
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:23.399
cowboy boots? Yeah, it's like, I just need something breathable and art

68
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.360
support. I'm like, good,
my god, I tell you right now,

69
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:30.079
this is how it happened. Travis
probably scrolling through Instagram hoping to find

70
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:34.120
the one ad that was a collaboration
between Luke Casey and Doctor Sholes, but

71
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:43.879
it never happened. I think we're
onto a this is one perish. I'm

72
00:05:43.879 --> 00:05:46.399
gonna find them. I'm gonna find
them, and I'm gonna have these shoes.

73
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:49.279
I'm gonna have boots made for you
with with art support and oddly breathable.

74
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:54.480
I don't know, I'm gonna find
a breathable like it'll be air wicking

75
00:05:54.480 --> 00:06:01.600
ostrich. I hear the EMU doesn't
sweat. I don't know a truth about.

76
00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:04.399
One of the weirdest things is that, you know, in my mid

77
00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:09.639
forties, my feet grew a size
and I think it was because my arch

78
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:15.920
is kind of collapsed. And okay, easy berry bonds unless you were on

79
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:19.120
a massive amount of the stairs,
Like and my hat size, I have

80
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:23.040
gone from a ten and a half
to eleven to eleven and a half.

81
00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:30.079
Did you hear that? Ladies drend
home coming on strong in middle age?

82
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:34.560
You might want to go see a
doctor about this. I think a doctor

83
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:39.600
would want to see him about this. You know, it's weird. My

84
00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:43.720
hands and feet just keep growing,
like you might want to see there might

85
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:48.279
be a side effect from all the
yeager you've no longer drink. Honestly,

86
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:53.000
are you getting nutrients back in your
body? That might actually be a part

87
00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:55.720
of it. Yeah. All of
a sudden I showed looking down at my

88
00:06:55.839 --> 00:07:01.360
you know, shoes, and so
glad sudden my big toe started rubbing through

89
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.519
and sticking out, and I'm like, what the hell you like the Incredible

90
00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:10.720
Hulk like when he changes. Yeah, most people seem middle aged and getting

91
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:14.279
over the hill as you know,
going downhill or his trays like he's just

92
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:16.360
coming into his own finally. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean,

93
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:21.079
I don't get me wrong, I'm
a fan of arts support, but I

94
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:25.040
have a feeling like you you wait, like you wake up in the morning

95
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:30.519
to yell at people about your lawn. That's what like, but you're ready

96
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:32.240
to chase somebody down that threw something
on your lawn, Like that's where the

97
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:35.519
shoes come in. You have a
breathable shirt because it's hot in the summer.

98
00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:40.800
I get it, buddy. I
mean it's your fashion and whatever makes

99
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:44.959
you, whatever makes you happy,
and those are life goals. Like twenty

100
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:46.639
years from now, then I want
to sit on a porch and chase people

101
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:50.480
off my lawn. Twenty years from
now? Are you just dressing early for

102
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:58.480
the part? I can't talk.
I've got three chains on for no reason.

103
00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:01.480
I don't know. Yeah, I'm
not sure why that is. I

104
00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:05.519
don't know if it's just I don't
know why that is. What you just

105
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:07.079
you just need the jewelry you need. You need to bling someone to be

106
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:13.360
like are you worried about being lost
in the dark. Yeah, well it's

107
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:18.480
a superstition, so it's good luck
charms. And but like Dan's always been

108
00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:22.519
like I think your wedding I think
was the most dressed up I ever saw

109
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:26.279
you. M yeah, that sounds
by right. And outside of that,

110
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:30.480
outside of that, like your T
shirt collection must rival most people like I.

111
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:33.679
If you if you ever want to, if you ever feel like you

112
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:37.720
know, t shirting it there,
Trey, talk to that guy right there.

113
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:39.799
No, no, no, Raj
is correct, Tray, I know

114
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:43.519
the right brands. I know the
right brands and softness and hug you in

115
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:48.639
all the right places. He's not
giving you like the low quality Gilden my

116
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:52.159
friend. No, no, no, that's a Haynes with the tag less

117
00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:56.080
thing on the bat. That's what
we're brushed cotton. That's a he's a

118
00:08:56.120 --> 00:09:03.679
brush cotton kind of guy. Uh
poll tribelend. Oh okay, well now

119
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:07.360
you're getting sexy. I didn't know
what kind of show this was. Apparently

120
00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:13.759
it's about fashion all of a sudden
ironic because the guy that just left would

121
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:24.480
have loved the fashion discussion. Hi, Elfie should have stuck around the thing

122
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:26.200
with Trey. I think what happened
with your feet is maybe it was your

123
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:31.200
boots or the wrong size, Like
maybe you were your boots were too tight

124
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:33.279
because you were wearing boots. There
were ten and a half. You stopped

125
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:37.120
wearing boots and then your feet got
to relax to a normal size. Maybe

126
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:39.919
that was it. Oh, but
that could be it actually, because I

127
00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:41.879
mean that's a different fit, right, and depending on the width of your

128
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:45.559
flight. For some people I know
that. I like, i'd for Tony

129
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.600
brothers that couldn't wear boots because they're
too wide. Yeah, there's big guys,

130
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:54.159
so they couldn't. So it could
actually be that you were just hobbling

131
00:09:54.200 --> 00:10:01.360
yourself for like an ancient Chinese woman, except with col bindings binding your feet

132
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:07.000
and that's that. But that's for
a very specific, very specific look here

133
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:11.440
in in Dallas and and Trey actually
with with the boots that he wore.

134
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:16.159
They were the tapered toe, so
they were kind of sharp at the end,

135
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:18.279
as opposed to like that squared off
toe that got popular for a little

136
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:22.480
while. Yeah, I had I
still have the areas that are the square

137
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:28.919
toes because they can't do that.
Like that just looks painful. It's yeah,

138
00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:33.639
good. A good pair of boots
are one of the most comfortable things

139
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:39.000
you can wear. I just I've
got to an age I just couldn't be

140
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:41.759
on. You know, when you're
on your feet twelve hours a day.

141
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:46.080
I have you come to tiresome?
Have you wound your pocket watch today?

142
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:50.879
I don't know what is that?
Like? I'm just waiting for you to

143
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:54.919
spit into a spatoon at some point, like you know what a good pair

144
00:10:54.960 --> 00:11:00.320
of boots. Puh, I could
dip in years ago? You were really,

145
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.679
Oh, yeah, I quit.
I have. Actually I quit dipping

146
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.159
about six months before I quit drinking. And it was the harder of the

147
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.440
two. Really, Yeah, because
I haven't had a I haven't had a

148
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:16.039
cigarette in a year. Good for
you, that's awesome, congratulations. Yeah.

149
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:18.600
The I got I got sick in
July, and that's so that's where

150
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.480
a lot of the so like the
feather is that I have there, that's

151
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:26.799

feather is the uh like, the spiritual

152
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.519
like it's supposed to represent in Native
American culture is the great one, the

153
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:35.879
all knowing, and it's it's connection
to us. Okay, that makes more

154
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:39.039
sense because from what I remember,
you didn't smoke American spirits. I did.

155
00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:43.039
That was what I smoked at the
end, was it really? Okay?

156
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:45.919
American spirit yellows man, That's what
I was going with. And then

157
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.960
I had the evil eye thing.
And then I have the doorg of the

158
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:52.440
Goddess the Protector because I got sick
in July and uh I had to go.

159
00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:58.799
It was in the hospital, so
technically, uh I was dead what

160
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.840
yeah, Uh, technically, I
mean I was still talking, but uh

161
00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:07.519
they couldn't like I broke the record
for the lowest blood pH uh at that

162
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.000
hospital or I'm probably ever I went
to the hospital was on July third.

163
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:16.279
I was going to Kaboomtown and uh
getting things ready, getting you know,

164
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:22.519
uh launch hairs and coolers filled,
and had a hot dog and I had

165
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:26.159
a bud light and I was like, man, that bud light's not sitting

166
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:30.559
that hot dog. I'm not.
It was just feeling nauseous. Did the

167
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:35.320
bud light make you feel funny?
Like not quite? You like maybe need

168
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:41.960
to be somebody else I was.
I was drinking with kid Rock and uh,

169
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:46.759
we're getting as ak loaded and uh
but no, I just wasn't feeling

170
00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:48.919
well and I was like, I
think I'm gonna throw this up and it

171
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:52.720
did and it was like all like
it was a couple and a half of

172
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:58.000
blood. Oh yeah, So I
went to the paramedics take me to because

173
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.440
I couldn't. I couldn't walk,
Like within the hour, I couldn't,

174
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:05.679
like couldn't didn't have any energy to
walk. Is that because you were going

175
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:09.120
you know, full fourth of July
and you were wearing like Tray's cowboy boots

176
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:13.879
and khaki shorts. I know boots
and shorts. I was a hot bitch

177
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:18.679
that day. Uh No went to
the hospital and they're like, um,

178
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:24.000
they was wild. They so things
have changed. So things are changed now.

179
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:26.960
So I get into the r and
this, uh, this young man

180
00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:30.159
comes to the door. I'm forty
seven now and this kid comes to the

181
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:35.799
door and he looks nine, but
he's got He's got the uniform on right,

182
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:39.120
he's got and I can see I
can see where it says MD at

183
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:41.320
the end of his name. And
he goes, swear, do you this

184
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:45.440
is noble? Uh? He goes, so bro, I went, oh,

185
00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:48.200
we're gonna start this Ah no,
no, no, no, no,

186
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:50.039
no, he goes. He goes, I'm Jake, And I'm like,

187
00:13:50.039 --> 00:13:54.200
did you run my card? Did
anybody my insurance car? Did anybody

188
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.399
run this? And he's like uh. And he gets all the blood work

189
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:00.679
and they're taking a lot of blood. And this is the weird part is

190
00:14:00.840 --> 00:14:03.840
in their chaos because there's so much
happening. They were taking a lot of

191
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:09.000
blood, but they weren't putting any
back. So I started to hyperventilate.

192
00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:13.000
So in my room, Uh comes
three very sweet short Filipino ladies. Do

193
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:16.360
you need anything? Can I get
you into them? I'm like, blood

194
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:20.240
would be great, because like my
blood, my blood pressures going through the

195
00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:24.279
roof, my heart rate is through
the roof. And uh. They finally

196
00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:28.000
get me on some some stuff for
nausea, and they gave me some anxiety.

197
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:30.399
They thought I was having a panic
attack, and I'm like, nope,

198
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:33.639
just you're taking all of my blood. You're not. You're not You're

199
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:37.159
not giving me any back, or
even if you were having a panic attack,

200
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:39.159
that was as a result of them
taking all of your blood. And

201
00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:43.039
night gets I mean like it was
like it was like tubes this long and

202
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:45.679
like that. That's like the kind
of stuff that they would they would draw

203
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:48.679
blood out of a cow exactly,
and they do like eight of them all

204
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.159
at once, and I was like, and I mean I was poured it

205
00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:56.799
up like that. I had eight
total uh ports um for IVS and stuff.

206
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:01.399
But at one point, my girlfriends
says, next Philipps like, I'm

207
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.320
feeling a lot better. I still
can't catch my breath, but I have

208
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:07.840
a very serious question and you cannot
lie to me. He goes, Okay,

209
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:09.159
what's going on? I was like, you have to tell me the

210
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:11.600
one hundred percent truth. And I
was like yeah, and I just look

211
00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:13.399
over at the Filipino ladies and that
point I go, you can see them

212
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:18.360
too, right, because my fear
was like that's who is coming to get

213
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.559
me? And like my fear was
like being taken to heaven by three angry

214
00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:26.559
Filipino ladies. Like does the whole
time do you have your charger? Do

215
00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:31.559
you have your charger? They have
it. I'm like, ah, yes,

216
00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:35.960
I have my charger. Please leave
me alone. But then Jake comes

217
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.279
back in and he you know the
rolling stool with the no bat. Yes,

218
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:43.840
he gets on it and he rolls
up and he grabs me by.

219
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:45.879
Well, hang on what he says
he gets on it? Did he do

220
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:48.639
it like I imagine a doctor of
his age doing it, like with both

221
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:54.039
feet on the stool like surfing in
or did he actually butt on? He

222
00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:58.840
walked? It was seamless. He
walked and as he walked he sat and

223
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:08.559
roll Wait, don't don't get ahead
of yourself. Their new balance. So

224
00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:14.519
uh, he grabs me by like
mafia style, like grabs my hands and

225
00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:21.879
he goes bro and I go,
hmm. He goes you are a hot

226
00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:25.639
mess, and I go all right, and he goes but it's nothing Jake

227
00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:29.200
can't fixed, and then used me, I swear to you, used me

228
00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:33.360
to push off and then spun in
the stool and then walked out. And

229
00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:37.960
I was like, that is that's
Jake. Everybody, I'm gonna I'm definitely

230
00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:45.240
going to die. Jake will kill
me today. But yeah, we get

231
00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:49.320
up to I was in the ICU
and uh, I had I've been taking

232
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.480
some medication and some of it was
over the counter, UH for acid reflux,

233
00:16:53.559 --> 00:17:00.480
and apparently do not take prilosec if
you have acid reflux because it is

234
00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.000
very dangerous. If you look on
the back of the thing, it says

235
00:17:03.319 --> 00:17:08.200
can mask the symptoms of a heart
attack. But I was getting because I

236
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.440
was taking it. I was also
getting and also my diet was garbage and

237
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:18.200
smoking and fast food and drinking and
all of that stuff led to me like

238
00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:21.400
really really tiny ulcers about that big, but about one hundred of them.

239
00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:25.880
We're lining my stomach and it caused
this thing called h pylori, which then

240
00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:30.640
turned into pancrea titus. But when
they they walked in and again it's like

241
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:34.240
vegas. So there's no clocks,
so you don't know how long you've been

242
00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:38.359
there, and that way they can
really run up your bill. I just

243
00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:42.440
got doubling down. Uh but uh, this this very sweet nurse came in

244
00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:45.359
and she looks at my girlfriend.
She goes, okay, how's he doing?

245
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:49.839
And she's like fine, Like okay, how are you? I was

246
00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:52.319
like, Hi, can tell me
your name? I was like, yeah,

247
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:55.920
gave her my name, David Bird
social Security. So do you know

248
00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:59.079
where you are? It was like
hospital because do you know which one?

249
00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:03.279
Presbyterian plane? She goes, okay, and how long have you been in

250
00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:07.680
a coma? And I just look
at my girlfriend and go how long have

251
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:12.000
we been here? And apparently the
guy who was next to me was in

252
00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:19.480
a coma and intubated and his pH
was was higher than mine, and so

253
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:25.480
they couldn't imagine how I was still
coherent. And so the name of my

254
00:18:25.599 --> 00:18:27.599
the new special that I'm working on
for stand up is called not Compatible for

255
00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:34.160
Life because on my chart it said
pH of six point nine or below not

256
00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:41.960
compatible for life, and your boy
was a five. Oh man. Yeah,

257
00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:44.079
So they're like, we don't know
how you're alive. And I was

258
00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:48.200
like, cool, let's get to
fix in me. Let let's let the

259
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:51.720
wonderment wear off and let's let the
medicine start going. But at the end

260
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:52.759
of it, they were like,
you know you're you're if you're ready to

261
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:57.960
go. And I didn't realize just
being in bad for almost five days,

262
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.039
I didn't realize how much weight I'd
lost. I went in at one seventy

263
00:19:02.079 --> 00:19:07.200
four and I came out at one
thirty four. Jesus j Yeah. So

264
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:12.240
I I go to this big six
foot eight uh black nurse came in and

265
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:15.680
he's like, uh, you might
want to get some might want to tell

266
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:17.519
your girl to bring you some clothes. And I was like I'm good.

267
00:19:17.559 --> 00:19:22.799
He goes all right say it was
like all right, and then I was

268
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:23.960
like all right. He's like going
to help you to the wheelchair. I

269
00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:26.680
was like, no, I got
He goes okay, and I stand up

270
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:30.599
and my pants fall off, and
he goes, you want me to call

271
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:33.200
her. I was like, yeah, that'd be it would be good,

272
00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:37.079
and I just kind of helped,
like he pulled up my pants and just

273
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:38.839
kind of held onto him. He's
like, try to tell you. I

274
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:41.880
was like, yeah, you did. He's like, you need some help

275
00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:44.759
to the wheelchair and I go nope. I took two steps and I looked

276
00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:48.839
at him and goes, I got
you basically picked me up and put me

277
00:19:48.839 --> 00:19:52.200
in the wheelchairs, like uh anything
else. I was like, I think

278
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:53.519
I can make my way to the
to the car, and he goes,

279
00:19:53.799 --> 00:20:00.160
really, you're right, You're right, You're good. So I was sweatpants

280
00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:04.559
for for two and a half weeks. But now, so I say,

281
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:08.799
quit drinking for seven eight months.
I had to go do a low fat,

282
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:14.680
low sugar diet, no smoking,
um, and I just kind of

283
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:17.599
kept it up. I mean,
I put the I put weight back on,

284
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:22.079
so I'm back at the one seventy
one mark, but in the gym

285
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:26.079
and uh and and doing all the
all the stuff. But I told the

286
00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:30.279
doctors what do I need to do
to never see you again? It's like,

287
00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:32.480
can you quit drinking for the next
three months? So I was like,

288
00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:33.279
you got it? He goes,
can you quit smoking forever? And

289
00:20:33.319 --> 00:20:36.119
I was like yes, And I'm
like in my head, I'm like,

290
00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:40.839
Okay, that's kind of a tough
one. But eight nurse walks in and

291
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:44.480
goes, really you know you're gonna
quit. I'm like you, I'll do

292
00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:48.640
anything you tell me to do Sir
picked me up, but no, I

293
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:51.680
was so that I know that he
said he quit dipping, and that's that

294
00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:53.960
was harder than so. I don't
know what was in the i VS.

295
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:57.559
But like I had no like issue, like like with the drinking, though

296
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:03.559
I didn't want to smoke. The
only thing that changed was sweets, like

297

you know you're gonna just crave sweets. I'm like, no, there's no

304
00:21:32.200 --> 00:21:36.680
way. First day I quit drinking, I would have gutted somebody for a

305
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:40.640
snickerdoodle. Uh yeah, that'll see
that. I've had friends that that quit

306
00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:42.440
drinking there like that, but be
careful. I'm like, okay, Like

307
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:48.920
the only thing like I still liked
like Dan and I will have the affinity

308
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:51.400
for peanut butter, Like I still
like peanut butter and I like chocolate,

309
00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:56.319
but I was never My thing was
sweet, like a sweet So like,

00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:04.200
stuff that you can pour in water, A little squeezeable stuff you know what

312
00:22:04.200 --> 00:22:07.920
I mean that it's like a hot
to flavor your water. Yeah, the

313
00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:12.119
MEO stuff. Yeah that, so
I would do that in like a sprite

314
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:15.839
zero. Like to me, that
was like, oh, this is greater

315
00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:18.559
than anything ever to have existed on
this planet. Like that's kind of what

316
00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:22.559
I wanted. I don't know because
based on the description, I'm going to

317
00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:23.839
try one to trace Nick or Doodles
if he's willing to, you know.

318
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:26.640
Yeah. But then but then it
was like then somebody was like, hey,

319
00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:29.559
do you want to scoop ice cream
with that? I'm like yeah,

320
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:30.400

I'm like, of course I do.

323
00:22:37.880 --> 00:22:41.519
And then that was like I'm like
okay, but like the weird thing is

324
00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:45.119
like drinking and the gym and the
work like that stuff was like I haven't

325
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:49.839
had a cigarette since but that was
never like it never even crossed my mind

326
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:53.279
that I had quit smoking. It
was like months later I was like,

327
00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:56.400
oh, yeah, I haven't had
one of those. So when you were

328
00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:59.279
talking about like it being hard,
like I don't know what, Like,

329
00:22:59.359 --> 00:23:02.799
just find out what they were giving
me, and for anybody that's having a

330
00:23:02.839 --> 00:23:06.920
hard time quitting smunk, whatever they
were giving me outside of some weird lady

331
00:23:06.920 --> 00:23:08.559
trying to get me all ghacked out
on fent and all, I'm like,

332
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:14.240
just don't just find out what it
is in that IV because it was like

333
00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:17.559
everybody says, that's the hardest thing
to do, and I was like,

334
00:23:17.599 --> 00:23:22.319
yeah, just it smells good sometimes, but that's about it. But I

335
00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:27.079
the dipping thing, I don't I
know guys that still like we'll quit drinking.

336

here into the Treehouse his phone number
nine seven fifty two hundred. Website Rodney

341
00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:15.160
Anderson dot com so let's start with
this today, Rodney. We talk a

342
00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:18.440
lot and have over the years about
how important the preapproval process is for someone

343
00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:22.880
getting into the home market. But
what are let's say, what are five

344
00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:26.279
major reasons people need to get pre
approved right now? Well, Number one,

345
00:24:26.359 --> 00:24:32.319
you have a clear understanding of what
your budget is. Preapprovals is the

346
00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:37.480
preapproval process DAN can provide a clear
picture of what's your payment look like,

347
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:41.240
how much money am I going to
need? And does this home fit into

348
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:45.440
my budget? Number two, it
gives you increased negotiating power when you're preapproved

349
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:51.920
and you've got and you're competing against
other offers. Realtors want pre approval letters.

350
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:56.279
They're even calling us day in and
day out asking how strong is your

351
00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:00.279
customer, how strong is the preapproval
letter? And so we see that as

352
00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:06.960
well. Number three streamline homebuying process, meaning preapproval streamlines the homebuying process by

353
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:11.400
reducing the time between binding your dream
home and closing on your dream home.

354
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:18.680
Number four, identify. It gives
you identification of potential issues, meaning is

355
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:21.960
your credit and good inline or do
you need to pay off a debt?

356
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:25.480
Do you have a medical bill,
something that's hurting your credit. And last

357
00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:30.200
and fifth, confidence and peace of
mind. Preapproval. You know, you

358
00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:33.000
know who we are as a lender. You know that you have the negotiation

359
00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:37.319
power and you're able to go out
and find a home and close in as

360
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:40.759
a little as ten to fifteen days. So it gives you just a purchasing

361
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:42.759
power and it gives you peace of
mind. Yeah, and I can actually

362
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:47.039
speak to this from both ends of
that spectrum. One, as a homeowner

363
00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:52.079
trying to sell a property, I
didn't entertain anyone really looking at their property,

364
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:56.599
let alone entertaining any serious offers unless
they were actually preapproved and gone through

365
00:25:56.640 --> 00:26:00.720
the entire process. And then as
a buyer, I knew I had a

366
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:04.920
leg up on other potential buyers because
you had already prep preapproved me through the

367
00:26:06.119 --> 00:26:10.240
entire thing. So from whether you're
selling a property or you're looking to buy

368
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:15.160
one, the preapproval process is absolutely
major. So give Rodney and his team

out. It's nine seven two nine eight

for him, good job. I'm
all about someone getting their bag when when

398
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:30.960
they can. Yeah. My whole
thing is is I like people to have

399
00:28:32.039 --> 00:28:34.279
earned what they've what they've attained.
You know, I was supposed to would

400
00:28:34.319 --> 00:28:37.559
yeah like nah, here you go. You know, you kind of suck,

401
00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:38.680
but we're gonna give you a bunch
of but that. But that's the

402
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:41.000
thing about Hollywood, Like if you
stick around long enough, they're like,

403
00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:45.119
oh, you're still here. Here's
money. They'll just at some point like

404
00:28:45.519 --> 00:28:49.480
they do that, They're like,
here's just makes something and then if they

405
00:28:49.559 --> 00:28:53.319
if it's good, they'll the other
networks and other studios will will buy that

406
00:28:53.400 --> 00:28:57.799
idea. There was something I'm trying
to remember the name of the actor.

407
00:28:57.839 --> 00:29:00.880
It's on the tip of my tongue. I look it up real quick,

408
00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:04.440
so bear with me. Is it
Chris Cooper? Yeah, it is.

409
00:29:04.480 --> 00:29:07.279
It's Chris Cooper. So this,
I think, is what you're talking about.

410
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:11.799
Roger is a good example of this. Chris Cooper's super generic name,

411
00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:15.200
right, and you probably don't know
who he is based on his name,

412
00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:22.319
but he's now sort of this high
end character actor in Hollywood. But he's

413
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:26.880
been in Hollywood forever. He's been
in tons of stuff. I guess.

414
00:29:27.319 --> 00:29:33.839
One of the first times I really
recognized huh. So you just looked him

415
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.599
up, didn't you, tree h
So when I first really started noticing him

416
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:41.880
setting outside of a random role was
when he was in The Born, one

417
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:45.799
of the Born movies, the first
Born movie, I think, and he

418
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:48.119
was sort of the bad guy.
He was supposed to be Jason Bourne's handler.

419
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:51.720
He was it was the Bourne identity, and he was the bad guy

420
00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:55.240
in that. Ever since then,
he's been in all these amazing roles.

421
00:29:55.240 --> 00:30:00.160
He was in American Beauties and Sea
Biscuits, all these Yeah, yeah you

422
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:02.400
see him. You like, I've
had that guy. But for like twenty

423
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:06.480
years he was just there. And
now all of a sudden, because he's

424
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:10.519
been around for so long, everyone's
like, oh, let's get that role.

425
00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:12.640
That's got to be Chris Cooper because
he's fantastic. Well you didn't think

426
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:18.000
it's fantastic thirty years ago. But
also like it is that thing where you're

427
00:30:18.039 --> 00:30:22.079
like, he's been there long enough, he knows like he knows people that

428
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:26.559
are that have moved up the ranks. So it is like the but like

429
00:30:26.599 --> 00:30:30.400
when people are like, Hollywood is
not a meritocracy. Correct, Uh,

430
00:30:30.599 --> 00:30:33.640
it's when people go, hey,
that's my buddy. He's been around forever

431
00:30:33.759 --> 00:30:36.880
and I'm here now let me let
me, let me give him this part.

432
00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:40.880
Yeah, this is this is for
him because you know, we stuck

433
00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:42.279
around long enough, or we did
this, or we did ad like like

434
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:48.480
a wild because you'll Jason Priestley for
the longest time. This is a great

435
00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:51.880
story. But he was the he
had two roommates and he was the working

436
00:30:51.920 --> 00:30:55.799
actor. He was the It was
a guy that the one roommate had a

437
00:30:55.839 --> 00:30:57.599
car, and that guy would be
the one that Jason would be like,

438
00:30:57.599 --> 00:31:02.240
hey, listen, I'll introduce you
to the casting directors or the producers,

439
00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:04.440
but you have to drive me to
the audition, and that roommates like,

440
00:31:04.480 --> 00:31:07.240
cool man. I just appreciate all
the help and thank you so much.

441
00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:11.599
And they went to casting went to
an audition for him, and he brought

442
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:15.960
this guy along because again that guy
had the car. Jason does not get

443
00:31:17.000 --> 00:31:18.319
the part. This guy does.
And now you know, Brad Pitt.

444
00:31:22.160 --> 00:31:26.599
It's amazing how that stuff works.
It is amazing. Also like with the

445
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:30.200
like with the Chris Cooper guy,
he's an older guy and the age thing

446
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.039
got me thinking, when you're old
enough, you start sticking around long enough,

447
00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:36.000
you have a history built up,
you know people, you know certain

448
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:40.200
things, you can relate to certain
things. And it actually, strangely enough,

449
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:45.519
this reminded me of something Trey posted
recently on Trey was on your Instagram

450
00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:48.440
story, so I don't know if
it's still up. It was this lady

451
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:55.839
talking about being Oh I think I
remember now. It was how gen x

452
00:31:56.400 --> 00:32:00.519
with those because I think all of
us are gen X right, we were

453
00:32:00.640 --> 00:32:04.640
put We were really as a generation
put through the ringer as far as various

454
00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:10.720
things, especially things that weren't necessarily
dangerous for us, but we still had

455
00:32:10.759 --> 00:32:15.079
to go through it. Like and
this is one of the things Trade posted,

456
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:19.759
was this lady talking about this sort
of unfounded fear instilled in us as

457
00:32:19.839 --> 00:32:25.960
children about scoliosis, because all three
of ushre of an aged where at one

458
00:32:27.039 --> 00:32:30.920
point in elementary school, it was
they did the test when you have to

459
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:34.599
go into the nurse and you lined
up outside the nurse's office your entire class,

460
00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:38.000
and you you walk and then one
at a time you go in.

461
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:43.920
You pull up your shirt or take
it off, and then you bend over,

462
00:32:44.400 --> 00:32:51.680
which just that description right there would
get you on like a cancel list

463
00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:57.720
immediately just right then. Yeah,
but then the nurse would then touch you,

464
00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:00.799
but they were looking to see if
you had scoliosis, and most of

465
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:04.480
us really didn't understand what it was. And then they try to tell you,

466
00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:07.119
oh, it's a curvature of the
spine, and I'm like, why

467
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:08.440
am I bending over? And why
do you have to do your finger?

468
00:33:08.480 --> 00:33:13.440
It's like you would think as soon
as you Honestly, you would think if

469
00:33:13.480 --> 00:33:15.720
you have scoliosis, it's pretty obvious
when you walk into the nurse's office,

470
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:22.839
if you're already been over or or
you look like a question mark. I

471
00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:27.359
had completely thank you so much for
doing that, tray. I completely forgot

472
00:33:27.400 --> 00:33:30.680
about that we had to do that. That's can. I never knew anybody

473
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:35.559
with scoliosis, have you? Yeah, I do know a couple of people

474
00:33:35.559 --> 00:33:38.839
that have the spine curvature, but
that's so with chiropractic and with traction,

475
00:33:38.960 --> 00:33:43.720
Like there's a whole million there's a
million things inversion chairs and all that stuff

476
00:33:43.759 --> 00:33:46.519
that you can fix that curvature of
your spine. But I forgot about that

477
00:33:46.559 --> 00:33:52.880
test. That's hilarious because that doesn't
even sound legal, Like no today,

478
00:33:53.000 --> 00:33:57.279
Like there's no way that's a test
Nowadays, you're gonna have to not only

479
00:33:57.279 --> 00:34:00.680
send a permission slip home to be
signed, but the teacher, I'm sorry,

480
00:34:00.920 --> 00:34:05.720
your parent may also have to be
present and bring an attorney. Yeah.

481
00:34:05.759 --> 00:34:10.320
I two questions in my head,
like what day of nursing school is

482
00:34:10.360 --> 00:34:15.519
that They're like, all right,
and now we teach about scolios. Everybody

483
00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:22.280
index fingers up, let's get you
got to get your vertebrate tracers warmed up.

484
00:34:22.400 --> 00:34:25.960
Did you feel anything weird? Kick
that kid out, he's a weird

485
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:35.039
one, just mart. Was there
a gap in the bumps like that was?

486
00:34:35.199 --> 00:34:38.119
It's like that was the that was
the test? Like that was you

487
00:34:38.119 --> 00:34:40.159
need to go see something, You
need to see a specialist. What did

488
00:34:40.199 --> 00:34:46.119
you do that? And the weird
thing is, Roj you mentioned this and

489
00:34:46.719 --> 00:34:50.760
going to a chiropractor. I've gone
to chiropractors for years, worked in an

490
00:34:50.800 --> 00:34:52.639
office, you know, before I
started in radio, and they've all been

491
00:34:52.679 --> 00:34:58.800
pretty consistent in saying, pretty much, everybody's got some degree of curvature or

492
00:34:58.800 --> 00:35:00.599
the spine. It's just a matter
of what degree. That doesn't necessarily mean

493
00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:05.599
everybody has scoliosis, but you kind
of do. It's just a matter of

494
00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:09.559
how severe is it and does it
actually need you know, aggressive treatment?

495
00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:15.039
How bad of was there? Like
my now that I'm thinking about it,

496
00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:17.599
because that's the comic, I had
forgotten about that test, so thank you.

497
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:22.880
Now I'm I'm also thinking about like
the bomb drills, all that stuff,

498
00:35:22.920 --> 00:35:27.119
but bomb drills, tornado drills.
I mean, now there's school shooting

499
00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:29.440
drills on top of it. It's
almost like there's so many drills, how

500
00:35:29.440 --> 00:35:35.559
do they have any time to be
indoctrinated by one of My thing is like

501
00:35:35.599 --> 00:35:42.440
what, like what was there an
outbreak at some point of the scoliosis?

502
00:35:42.440 --> 00:35:45.920
Like was there a lot of just
scoliosis people walking around? They're like we

503
00:35:45.039 --> 00:35:51.760
gotta we gotta test or they're gonna
be everywhere like this fear Like like,

504
00:35:51.800 --> 00:35:53.000
well, yeah, I'm just trying
to think, like what's the fear of

505
00:35:53.000 --> 00:35:57.760
that? Like you know your kid
could be next? Like I tea.

506
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:01.239
I remember, and I had a
doctor I was in college tell me I

507
00:36:01.239 --> 00:36:05.280
had scoliosis and I was highly offended. I'm like I was checked for that

508
00:36:05.320 --> 00:36:09.840
every year. And that's the problem
with the scoliosis. They never really told

509
00:36:09.840 --> 00:36:14.400
you in depth what it was,
so we didn't really know. We're just

510
00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:16.679
trusting this adult to put their hands
on our bare body and like, okay,

511
00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:20.599
well to test. Yeah. I
think they just had to have something

512
00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:22.880
for that school nurse to do,
like at some point like hey man,

513
00:36:23.000 --> 00:36:28.440
nobody knows what you really do here
because it's like it was always the solution.

514
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:30.800
I remember there's like a couple of
times I went in I was like

515
00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:35.480
I'm not feeling take a nap.
I'm like, all right that I don't

516
00:36:35.480 --> 00:36:37.679
know if you have. Is there
anything in the first aid kit except for

517
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:42.039
like a blow up pillow, like
I don't know what, like like a

518
00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:45.000
blankie and a pillow like that in
your first aid kid, because that's all

519
00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:47.239
she ever told us to do is
take a nap. In addition to that

520
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:52.039
first Aid kid having the blankie and
the pillow, there was also a card

521
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:59.480
with very specific instructions on how to
administer an immediate scoliosis test because maybe the

522
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:04.760
source of you're not feeling well was
your curvature of the spine. But you're

523
00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:07.639
right. When when Trey It boasted
this, it got my wheels turning.

524
00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:09.440
It's just like yeah, like I
had forgotten about that too. It was

525
00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:14.320
it was something that we just did
all the time. You did it every

526
00:37:14.440 --> 00:37:15.960
year. I think it was at
the beginning of the school year. It

527
00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:20.239
was like, okay, you get
your class schedule and then and you find

528
00:37:20.280 --> 00:37:22.119
your classes, you meet your teachers, and then you go to the nurse

529
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:28.000
you get your scoliosis test. Um. But it also go ahead Russian.

530
00:37:28.559 --> 00:37:32.280
Did anybody question when it stopped?
Like like they don't do that anymore?

531
00:37:32.400 --> 00:37:36.719
So like yeah, I don't think
they do it anymore. Yeah, how

532
00:37:36.719 --> 00:37:37.400
did that? Like? How did
that? That's what I was like,

533
00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:39.719
how did that? What meeting is
that? I was like, Oh,

534
00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:44.920
what about scoliosis? I've been I've
been running my finger up and down backs

535
00:37:44.920 --> 00:37:47.880
for thirty five years, haven't found
one. Like, I think we're good.

536
00:37:49.559 --> 00:37:52.239
We can stop with this test now. It's just getting Now I'm just

537
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:54.559
a creepy dude in a in a
cubby that just goes, thank you for

538
00:37:54.599 --> 00:37:59.519
coming back, thank you for going
like that's that's all you're doing at that

539
00:37:59.559 --> 00:38:04.079
point. That also reminds me I
come across this someone had posted the other

540
00:38:04.199 --> 00:38:08.880
day. Uh if if you if
you did any of these things growing up,

541
00:38:09.079 --> 00:38:15.760
then you're old and and and it's
not some of these things. It's

542
00:38:15.840 --> 00:38:20.880
any one of these things, right, And I'm curious. I'm curious to

543
00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:25.679
see if you check off as many
as I did using a pencil to rewind

544
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:29.719
a cassette tape. Oh yeah,
yeah, Trey, I'm sure you've done

545
00:38:29.760 --> 00:38:32.360
that. Oh yeah. Hearing someone
yell, get off the internet. I

546
00:38:32.400 --> 00:38:38.880
need to use the phone. Yeah. Now this is this is a much

547
00:38:38.920 --> 00:38:43.800
older one. Cars that needed two
different keys, one to unlock the door

548
00:38:43.920 --> 00:38:46.400
and a different key that actually started
the engine. Yeah, and the one

549
00:38:46.440 --> 00:38:52.360
that unlocked the door also unlocked the
glove box. Yes, typically the door

550
00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:59.400
key was round and the ignition key. Yeah. When everyone's favorite treat was

551
00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:01.519
push up ops, but that's basically
yeah, I was thinking about that day.

552
00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:05.519
A push up pop is basically just
ice cream that you're eating out of

553
00:39:05.519 --> 00:39:09.639
a toilet paper roll. Yes,
yeah, I was actually because uh,

554
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:15.239
somebody I posted the thing about it's
called on my Uh it's another joke that's

555
00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:19.559
gone viral on on my Instagram or
the graham Is the kids call it,

556
00:39:20.360 --> 00:39:23.559
uh is I call it a chicken
curry incident. It happened to me one

557
00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:28.400
husand the third grade. My mom, I would take my lunch or I

558
00:39:28.400 --> 00:39:30.639
would get lunch at school, but
depending on what the lunch was that day,

559
00:39:30.719 --> 00:39:35.360
because we growing up didn't eat beef
in the household. Uh, And

560
00:39:35.400 --> 00:39:37.719
so if there was like burgers that
day, my mom would send me with

561
00:39:37.800 --> 00:39:40.480
lunch. And it was usually peanut
butter and jelly, maybe a banana,

562
00:39:40.599 --> 00:39:44.920
some grapes or you know, apple
slices or whatever in this day, normal

563
00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:50.239
stuff that that kids and mysquit would
eat until this day and then Uh,

564
00:39:50.280 --> 00:39:52.119
I grabbed. I had had a
dukes. I had to remember the metal

565
00:39:52.760 --> 00:39:59.400
lunch boxes that were themed, So
I had had dukes of Hazard and uh,

566
00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:02.239
did you have with the General Lee
on the front and then the Duke

567
00:40:02.320 --> 00:40:06.880
brothers and Daisy and then Boss Hog
on the inside and the thermis that came

568
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:08.639
with it? Yeah, yeah,
I have to have themis yeah. So

569
00:40:08.719 --> 00:40:13.039
I grab it, didn't even checked
it, didn't even ask my mom what's

570
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:15.800
in it, just automatic, I
know there's gonna be a sandwich. I

571
00:40:15.880 --> 00:40:21.280
get to lunch and I opened it
up and there's white long grain Boss munthey

572
00:40:21.360 --> 00:40:25.039
rice and I was like, oh
my god, what's in the thermish?

573
00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:30.400
And I cracked the thermis halfway open, and everybody in that cafeteria got angry

574
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:35.039
because my mom thought that day was
the perfect day for chicken curry and rice.

575
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:39.000
Uh. But somebody was like,
you know, I don't get to

576
00:40:39.159 --> 00:40:44.800
I didn't get to trade lunches.
I'm like neither did. I Like,

577
00:40:44.800 --> 00:40:46.119
like, you know, everybody else
had snack cakes and I was like yes,

578
00:40:46.320 --> 00:40:50.960
like twinkies pop like that came up
on my feet. Somebody's like,

579
00:40:50.960 --> 00:40:53.639
remember trading for twinkies. I was
like, no, because my mother was

580
00:40:53.639 --> 00:40:58.480
a nurse, so that she was
trying to be as healthy as possible.

581
00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:01.639
So if it was a peanut butter
and jelly sandwich, it was definitely coming

582
00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:06.519
with like two fruits and like some
sort of vets. It would be broccoli,

583
00:41:06.639 --> 00:41:08.840
and then there would be either an
orange or banana or grapes and some

584
00:41:08.840 --> 00:41:14.320
some form of There was nothing like
there was nobody that I'm trading a little

585
00:41:14.400 --> 00:41:17.159
Debbie Star crunch that popped up on
the feed too. Yeah. Yeah,

586
00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:22.280
because if if you and Trey were
in the same elementary school, there's no

587
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:25.400
way he was going to give up
his snack back for your chicken curry.

588
00:41:25.559 --> 00:41:29.519
Yeah, exactly right. So,
and so somebody was like, but did

589
00:41:29.519 --> 00:41:32.440
you get the quarter for milk?
And I'm like, how was it?

590
00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:36.039
How was it? In third grade
the milk was a quarter, And then

591
00:41:36.039 --> 00:41:39.360
in ninth grade it was too,
like where was the inflation? The price

592
00:41:39.360 --> 00:41:43.079
of milk never went up? It
turns out it was even back then.

593
00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:46.880
It was all about greed all along
from the milk industry. Yeah, but

594
00:41:46.920 --> 00:41:50.920
then somebody's like, well, somebody
was like, well I would drink from

595
00:41:50.960 --> 00:41:53.639
the water fountain, uh, and
then use that quarter to get the push

596
00:41:53.719 --> 00:41:58.239
up pop and I was like,
oh my god, it's the orange the

597
00:41:58.280 --> 00:42:01.639
little push up pop. Yeah,
we had my elementary school, I will

598
00:42:01.639 --> 00:42:07.320
say this for Mesquite name brand still
had the actual push up not the not

599
00:42:07.440 --> 00:42:09.760
the clear toilet paper roll but the
plain white one. But this one had

600
00:42:09.800 --> 00:42:13.199
to light the polka dots on it
and said push up pop on the side.

601
00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:15.280
And did you get the ever get
the one that you push and it's

602
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:19.719
kind of slides over and it's just
for the whole day. No, I

603
00:42:19.760 --> 00:42:22.840
guess I didn't get the name brand
one. Instead, I got like whatever,

604
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:25.280
the Kirkland brand toilet paper roll version. Yeah, we had. We

605
00:42:25.320 --> 00:42:29.079
had the actual and then sometimes you'd
push up on it and it just it

606
00:42:29.079 --> 00:42:32.360
would just go wonky and there was
no there's no refunds. Back then you

607
00:42:32.360 --> 00:42:36.599
figured out how to you just unravel
the toilet paper roll. It is kind

608
00:42:36.639 --> 00:42:39.119
of eight what was there. But
yeah, that's the push up pop,

609
00:42:39.239 --> 00:42:44.199
Twinkies and star crunches, the other
things that if you've done any one of

610
00:42:44.239 --> 00:42:46.960
these, let alone multiples, you're
old printing out your directions for a map

611
00:42:47.039 --> 00:42:52.559
quest. Yeah, I think we're
all old enough to know even before that,

612
00:42:52.679 --> 00:42:57.320
where like my grandmother actually had the
old spiral map thing that she kept

613
00:42:57.320 --> 00:43:00.320
in the back of the car.
It was called a map Scoll mapsco exactly.

614
00:43:00.360 --> 00:43:04.320
She had that. I remember doing
that, having a notebook where he

615
00:43:04.400 --> 00:43:07.599
kept track of all your friends phone
numbers. If you watched a movie,

616
00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:10.679
you had to switch to channel three. That was back before TVs had different

617
00:43:10.679 --> 00:43:15.480
input options. If you ever accidentally
burned yourself with a cigarette with a car

618
00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:22.039
cigarette lighter, oh yeah, finding
out which movies were at the local theater

619
00:43:22.039 --> 00:43:25.719
by checking the newspaper, or if
you called movie phone. Uh, that

620
00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:30.880
guy I feel so bad for because
he was he was he was he was

621
00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:35.320
the man like that guy just I
mean for however long that was. He

622
00:43:35.360 --> 00:43:38.360
had his window, just his job
security and the amount of was like hi

623
00:43:38.519 --> 00:43:45.400
and welcome to movie phone. That
Yeah, wasn't that Shadow Stevens. No,

624
00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:47.000
that was not. You would think
so he was too busy with the

625
00:43:47.119 --> 00:43:52.320
Hollywood Squares. But I'm pretty sure
they had a pretty intense rivalry though.

626
00:43:53.079 --> 00:43:57.119
Yeah. Fine, I just like
his career in Double Craps, his lost

627
00:43:57.119 --> 00:44:02.239
movie phone in Hollywood Square, Jim
J. Bullock had a better career than

628
00:44:04.239 --> 00:44:14.000

Yeah, Dan, we see this so

634
00:44:44.239 --> 00:44:46.840

inspector out and low, behold,
you got haill damage all over your roof

636

to be replaced before you sell your home.

welcome into the treehouse Jacqueline from Brooks Plumbing.

656
00:46:01.800 --> 00:46:07.079
The phone number is two one four
three six eight thirty eight thirty eight.

657
00:46:07.119 --> 00:46:10.199
The website Brooks Plumbing Texas dot com. So, Jacqueline, let's start

658
00:46:10.199 --> 00:46:15.519
with this. At one point I
was entertaining the notion at a previous home

659
00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:20.199
of installing a tankless water heater.
And I'm curious to know what you and

660
00:46:20.239 --> 00:46:24.159
Brooks Plumbing thinks about the tankless water
heater, good or bad? Why or

661
00:46:24.159 --> 00:46:28.480
why not? Every house is different, And that's the short answer. The

662
00:46:28.559 --> 00:46:31.840
long answer is is it something that
you really need? I always ask people

663
00:46:32.039 --> 00:46:35.800
how many people in the house?
Are you guys running out of hot water?

664
00:46:35.960 --> 00:46:38.400
Now, if you are running out
of hot water just because of the

665
00:46:38.559 --> 00:46:43.719
sheer capacity that your family uses,
maybe that's the right ticket for you.

666
00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:46.000
If you're not running out of hot
water, it's just time to replace the

667
00:46:46.039 --> 00:46:51.039
heater. It might not necessarily be
the best financial move. There's a lot

668
00:46:51.079 --> 00:46:53.039
of companies that don't tell you out
of the gate that a tankless water heater

669
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:58.440
is indeed significantly more expensive, depending
on where you get it, sometimes two

670
00:46:58.519 --> 00:47:01.800
to four, sometimes even five or
six times more expensive than just a traditional

671
00:47:01.800 --> 00:47:06.800
tank heater, depending on who's selling
it to you. Now that being said,

672
00:47:06.960 --> 00:47:10.559
our preference for tankless heaters is always
gas. I think there's a little

673
00:47:10.559 --> 00:47:16.280
bit of room of improvement in the
manufacturing department for electric tankless heaters. But

674
00:47:16.400 --> 00:47:22.840
every house is different, and I
just think that if if you don't have

675
00:47:22.920 --> 00:47:25.079
to spend the money. Maybe don't
do it, especially considering a lot of

676
00:47:25.079 --> 00:47:29.159
people don't tell you that you have
to get those tankless heaters serviced once a

677
00:47:29.239 --> 00:47:31.440
year or they're prone to failing due
to sediment build up, and that can

678
00:47:31.480 --> 00:47:35.599
be expensive. So you know,
every house is different. What's right for

679
00:47:35.679 --> 00:47:37.199
your household? That's the question.
And the good news is you're going to

680
00:47:37.239 --> 00:47:40.960
give your honest assessment, your honest
take to someone that gives you a call

681
00:47:42.039 --> 00:47:45.760
and asks you directly, hey,
I think maybe I want a tankless water

682
00:47:45.800 --> 00:47:47.000
heater. You're going to be as
honest with him as you were with me

683
00:47:47.079 --> 00:47:52.159
just now. And the other cool
thing is if it is right for someone's

684
00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:54.880
home and family, you've not only
service those tankless water heaters, but you

685
00:47:54.920 --> 00:47:59.719
also install right. Oh absolutely yeah. Service is easy. Sometimes we can

686
00:47:59.800 --> 00:48:01.599
even walk you through it because they'll
flash codes that we can look up for

687
00:48:01.639 --> 00:48:06.400
you. So this is why I
recommend Brooks Plumbing. So give them a

So, Roger, obviously we have really

698
00:49:00.280 --> 00:49:01.920
caught up much on what you've been
up to. I saw you post the

699
00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:07.880
other day. Did you get Are
you on another show that's on Amazon?

700
00:49:07.039 --> 00:49:09.800
Now? What's the deal? Oh? No? So I did a travel

701
00:49:09.880 --> 00:49:15.159
show for Amazon that was really really
cool. It was probably the most fun,

702
00:49:15.000 --> 00:49:17.840
uh, I've had in a very
long time. But it was on

703
00:49:17.960 --> 00:49:23.159
Amazon and you had to buy the
episodes to watch them. I'm on episodes

704
00:49:23.199 --> 00:49:28.400
two and six. It's called Destination
Unknown with a J. Yeah, with

705
00:49:28.440 --> 00:49:30.960
a J, like like destination but
jay because all comics. Uh, And

706
00:49:31.039 --> 00:49:36.920
we're in India and it's my buddy
Virdas, who is a great comic.

707
00:49:37.000 --> 00:49:38.559
He's blown up. He's all over
the world now. And so is that

708
00:49:38.599 --> 00:49:40.800
the guy that I saw? I
know, i've seen him in places.

709
00:49:40.840 --> 00:49:45.440
How do you spell his name?
Vr uh? Last name is Das,

710
00:49:46.559 --> 00:49:51.320
whole name is six letters, got
it. Yeah, he's seen him.

711
00:49:51.360 --> 00:49:53.679
He was in a handful of things. It was on the H. He

712
00:49:53.719 --> 00:49:55.880
was on the H. It was
only one season, but it was a

713
00:49:55.880 --> 00:50:00.280
show called Whiskey Tango. That's that's
the one where I first record NS.

714
00:50:00.280 --> 00:50:01.960
I watched that yeah with with Scott
fall. It was a great show.

715
00:50:02.039 --> 00:50:06.119
I just think that the budget was
like there, it was filmed in Prague.

716
00:50:07.400 --> 00:50:12.320
The I think the whole thing high
tum. It was filmed in Prague,

717
00:50:12.400 --> 00:50:15.800
and so like the first episode,
I know their budget was thirteen million

718
00:50:15.840 --> 00:50:19.960
dollars for the first episode. And
so that's a very fast way for network

719
00:50:20.000 --> 00:50:22.639
to go and thank you, thank
you. We'll be in touch, like

720
00:50:23.159 --> 00:50:25.599
like, but we have the whole
we have the whole season in the camp.

721
00:50:25.639 --> 00:50:29.760
I'm like, well, we'll still
be in touch. But I did

722
00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:31.599
the show with him, and it's
really cool. But now it's on Amazon

723
00:50:31.719 --> 00:50:36.320
Prime or sorry on Amazon Video,
so you can just go look it up.

724
00:50:36.320 --> 00:50:38.920
You don't have to pay for the
per episode. You can just go

725
00:50:39.000 --> 00:50:43.480
and watch. So I'm for free
even though you gotta pay like a hundred

726
00:50:43.559 --> 00:50:45.039
something. About a year now,
I think it's gone up. But yeah,

727
00:50:45.079 --> 00:50:47.880
okay, so that's yeah. I
was watching the trailer and I was

728
00:50:47.920 --> 00:50:51.639
like, I haven't watched this.
I feel like a jerk. Yeah.

729
00:50:51.679 --> 00:50:54.840
So we did two cities. It
was two opposing climates. So the first

730
00:50:54.840 --> 00:51:00.679
city was a place called Jodpoor in
Rajasthan, India. So it's the desert.

731
00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:05.480
So we did like camel racing and
uh, that was that was the

732
00:51:05.519 --> 00:51:09.519
most horrific thing I've ever done,
because it was were saying something because because

733
00:51:09.519 --> 00:51:14.519
while you were not technically paid for
for most of it, you've done radio,

734
00:51:15.679 --> 00:51:20.119
I know, Uh, very true. Uh, and uh there was

735
00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:23.599
we did camel racing when we got
to the desert. Uh, at eleven

736
00:51:23.639 --> 00:51:28.760
am, it was one hundred and
see if I get this right, it

737
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:31.280
was one hundred and seventeen. It
was one hundred and twelve in the shade

738
00:51:31.679 --> 00:51:35.400
when we started filming, it went
up to one hundred and twenty. And

739
00:51:35.440 --> 00:51:39.760
then one of the people that was
I think it was doctor. Somebody was

740
00:51:39.760 --> 00:51:43.599
like, well, flesh starts cooking
at one hundred and twenty seven degrees,

741
00:51:44.239 --> 00:52:00.960
just to let you guys know.
And like every now and again, somebody

742
00:52:00.000 --> 00:52:02.639
will come up like, hey man, you do a joke about football,

743
00:52:02.639 --> 00:52:06.639
and I'm like, should have told
you it was him, and then they

744
00:52:06.679 --> 00:52:08.920
just walk away. So yeah,
so that'll get for you. It's very

745
00:52:08.920 --> 00:52:12.360
well deserved. I mean, thanks, after twenty one years, I'm an

746
00:52:12.360 --> 00:52:17.360
overnight success. And you know what's
more fitting about all that? Almost the

747
00:52:17.719 --> 00:52:22.760
entirety of what you and Trey discussed
in that time, and the secret to

748
00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:27.840
going viral on Instagram is lost forever
because the power flashed here and I heard

749
00:52:27.840 --> 00:52:31.559
none of it therefore recorded there.
Oh my goodness, look at that.

750
00:52:31.800 --> 00:52:37.199
But now now we're gonna have to
do something with scoliosis because I forgot about

751
00:52:37.199 --> 00:52:39.239
that. Thank you so much for
the next when it goes viral, I'll

752
00:52:39.280 --> 00:52:44.800
credit Trey for that, because who
would have remembered that the scoliosis test.

753
00:52:44.920 --> 00:52:49.079
Oh my god, that's so wild. I still think highly illegal. I

754
00:52:49.119 --> 00:52:52.559
don't think that was I think that
was there was some deal made by some

755
00:52:52.920 --> 00:52:55.960
Oh well, but you just mentioned
just now you just mentioned things that it

756
00:52:57.039 --> 00:53:00.840
might have been highly illegal that we
you know, did growing up as kids

757
00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:05.639
or were done to us that were
the norm at the time. Twenty first

758
00:53:05.679 --> 00:53:10.039
century playgrounds on especially like at elementary
schools. You know, they have like

759
00:53:10.280 --> 00:53:15.800
soft pellets or something that's around that
basically at a hamster would live on,

760
00:53:15.320 --> 00:53:21.119
but now they have children on it. Everything's you know, candy coated plastic

761
00:53:21.199 --> 00:53:24.239
and soft. There's no sharp edges. Everything's round it. There's no metal,

762
00:53:24.320 --> 00:53:29.559
there's no wood. When we grew
up, I mean, it was

763
00:53:29.719 --> 00:53:32.400
rocks. So when you flew out
of the swing and you landed on your

764
00:53:32.480 --> 00:53:37.079
knees, you had rocks in your
knees for weeks. Yeah, that was

765
00:53:37.559 --> 00:53:39.519
their solution to come. I mean, the only way you knew if you

766
00:53:39.559 --> 00:53:44.639
truly got everything out of recess that
day is if you came back dirtied and

767
00:53:44.719 --> 00:53:49.559
bloodied. Yeah. I mean,
I don't know if you guys know this,

768
00:53:49.599 --> 00:53:52.239
and maybe it's still in LA thing, but it is kind of moving

769
00:53:52.719 --> 00:53:57.519
across the country. Is you can't
be on so the few playgrounds that still

770
00:53:57.559 --> 00:54:00.760
have swing sets. I don't know
if you know as much blow your minds.

771
00:54:00.199 --> 00:54:04.599
You have to have to be adult
supervised. Now, so there's yeah,

772
00:54:04.679 --> 00:54:07.519
so in la uh they'll have the
swing set and then there's like a

773
00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:12.559
little you know, they're like the
little bathroom check in at Bucky's. Yeah,

774
00:54:12.559 --> 00:54:15.079
like the checklists like hey, who
cleaned it? And the guy signs

775
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:16.320
like you if like if you?
And that's why I'm so glad I have

776
00:54:16.320 --> 00:54:20.639
no children. I just because I
just get a kick out of scene.

777
00:54:20.679 --> 00:54:22.719
It's like if you it doesn't even
have to be your kid. It just

778
00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:28.199
has to be kids swinging like a
like an adult will have to go over

779
00:54:28.199 --> 00:54:30.880
and be like I'm standing here like
I'm supervising this to make sure that they

780
00:54:30.920 --> 00:54:35.559
don't get hurt. See that's that
to me, is is is a complete

781
00:54:35.559 --> 00:54:39.840
one eighty because you're saying, now
you have to have adult supervision a Swedie,

782
00:54:40.280 --> 00:54:43.800
to have a kid on a swing, an adult has to be watching

783
00:54:43.800 --> 00:54:46.000
you today. Hi kind of And
I kind of understand that one though.

784
00:54:46.480 --> 00:54:51.400
Yeah they're dude, because we were
assassins as kids who look at it this

785
00:54:51.440 --> 00:54:54.840
way. So now it's it's standing
up. It's a standard operating procedure.

786
00:54:54.880 --> 00:54:58.800
You have to have adult supervision to
have a kid on a swing. But

787
00:54:58.880 --> 00:55:01.280
when we grew up if we were
on a swing set and there was an

788
00:55:01.280 --> 00:55:06.840
adult watching you. It wasn't a
teacher, like that was the weirdo and

789
00:55:06.880 --> 00:55:09.599
the bushes and you're and you're calling
for the teacher's assistance because there's a weirdo

790
00:55:09.679 --> 00:55:14.360
watching you swing. But let me
ask you this, how many times did

791
00:55:14.400 --> 00:55:17.559
you yell jump to your friends when
they were swinging it, like when they

792
00:55:17.599 --> 00:55:22.559
got to the highest part. How
many times? That's well, it was,

793
00:55:22.639 --> 00:55:25.280
it was. It was almost fifty
fifty. It was either jump or

794
00:55:25.719 --> 00:55:29.719
see if you can go all the
way around. Oh, that was a

795
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:31.280
good dud. Do the loop?
Do the loop? And then they fall

796
00:55:31.280 --> 00:55:34.599
out, hit their head on the
crossbar and all to the ground. They

797
00:55:34.599 --> 00:55:37.199
break every bone in their body and
they still got up and you know,

798
00:55:37.280 --> 00:55:38.960
and had a nap afterwards. Yeah, yeah they did. But that guy

799
00:55:39.039 --> 00:55:43.159
could have also like like prior to
that, this is how my brain works,

800
00:55:43.159 --> 00:55:45.880
like prior to that, Like he's
he's swinging, he's having the time

801
00:55:45.880 --> 00:55:47.440
of his life, but it's like
still good will hunting, like in his

802
00:55:47.480 --> 00:55:52.159
head like he's solving, like he's
figured out how to cure cancer. And

803
00:55:52.159 --> 00:55:54.679
then we're like jump and he's like
sweet and then he just sees the crossbar

804
00:55:55.159 --> 00:55:58.880
and dings his head and then all
the numbers get jumbled up, and now

805
00:55:58.920 --> 00:56:02.239
he doesn't know how to cure anymore. But instead he's dyslexic. He's just

806
00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:07.239
he's just a dude that you said
now just stands outside of an academy sports

807
00:56:07.239 --> 00:56:10.159
and outdoors in his letter, Jack, like, we could have made it

808
00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:15.440
like that's that guy instead of being
the world renowned doctor that he was going

809
00:56:15.480 --> 00:56:19.039
to be. Uh yeah, so
I mean I understand that. And also

810
00:56:19.039 --> 00:56:23.559
then they can't you can't grade kids
tests in red ink anymore. Yeah,

811
00:56:23.679 --> 00:56:29.320
that's too aggressive. There was that, And then I actually saw I saw

812
00:56:29.360 --> 00:56:31.639
a photo and I don't even know
if this was real. So this is

813
00:56:31.679 --> 00:56:36.159
a generational thing. So we're looking
at the old man thing. It's like,

814
00:56:36.199 --> 00:56:38.199
oh, kids today, they you
know, they play on soft playgrounds,

815
00:56:38.559 --> 00:56:43.039
whereas you know, we had metal
slides and chains and things on our

816
00:56:43.079 --> 00:56:49.239
playground equipment. Um an occasional broken
glass. But then I looked someone had

817
00:56:49.239 --> 00:56:52.079
posted a photo of a I don't
want to say it was like a turn

818
00:56:52.079 --> 00:56:57.960
of the century or Great Depression Arab
jungle gym that kids were playing on,

819
00:56:58.320 --> 00:57:01.880
and oh my god, it looked
like something that was almost like something out

820
00:57:01.880 --> 00:57:07.719
of the medieval torture playground. And
even I'm looking at those kids shouldn't be

821
00:57:07.760 --> 00:57:12.880
playing on that, And that was
supposedly like part of the Greatest Generation.

822
00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:15.599
That's the stuff they played on.
And then when they turned eighteen they went

823
00:57:15.599 --> 00:57:21.079
and storm Normandy. That's but that's
why, that's why, that's why they

824
00:57:21.119 --> 00:57:23.519
could do those things, right,
is because that and I just wrote this

825
00:57:23.559 --> 00:57:28.239
the other day. Yeah, because
they weren't playing, they were training.

826
00:57:28.840 --> 00:57:31.840
They were training, right, and
like that's that's the reason they saw they

827
00:57:31.960 --> 00:57:37.039
signed up for war, Like there
wasn't a draft. They're just like we're

828
00:57:37.079 --> 00:57:40.000
coming, right. They had to
they had to take out their their version

829
00:57:40.000 --> 00:57:45.880
of the anger that they had going
down the hot metal slide whatever their version

830
00:57:45.960 --> 00:57:47.800
was, like, we have to
kill, like that's the only way to

831
00:57:47.880 --> 00:57:52.159
feed that anger is. It was
like they had to kill like that and

832
00:57:52.360 --> 00:57:55.960
no power steering. Now, that's
how they built their upper body strength to

833
00:57:57.039 --> 00:57:59.800
go hand to hand, you know, in the trenches. Yeah. Yeah,

834
00:58:00.000 --> 00:58:04.039
and that's why they like they drink
like those guys drank whiskey and ate

835
00:58:04.199 --> 00:58:07.679
steak, because like you can't you
can't turn two and a half ton Buick

836
00:58:07.719 --> 00:58:10.559
with sober arms, you know what
I mean, Like you have to you

837
00:58:10.599 --> 00:58:15.119
just have to be like blackout drunk
with a steak dangling out of your mouth

838
00:58:15.320 --> 00:58:20.519
to make a U turn into thirty
five buick. And and I think that

839
00:58:20.599 --> 00:58:22.480
was part of the reason why,
like after after nine to eleven, you

840
00:58:22.719 --> 00:58:27.480
start to see all these terrorists training
videos come out, and really all their

841
00:58:27.519 --> 00:58:30.079
training on was stuff that we did
in like you know, fourth grade.

842
00:58:30.800 --> 00:58:36.440
Yeah, these are supposedly grown adult
you know, a terrorist assassins training on

843
00:58:36.480 --> 00:58:37.480
the monkey bars. I'm like,
man, I was doing that when I

844
00:58:37.519 --> 00:58:42.199
was six. I was like,
like the monkey bars. Every time I

845
00:58:42.239 --> 00:58:45.920
see that video, I'm like,
what are you guys training? Four?

846
00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:50.599
Like, like do you think there's
gonna be like every like like America is

847
00:58:50.639 --> 00:58:53.639
just all obstacle court, Like it's
all American Ninia Warrior, Like there's just

848
00:58:53.679 --> 00:58:57.639
some abilities you can walk into,
Like just why, I like, you

849
00:58:57.639 --> 00:59:00.360
don't have to like do pull ups
to get into that makes that that to

850
00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:02.960
me is hilarious, Like it was
basically the King of the Hill, Like

851
00:59:04.000 --> 00:59:06.400
what was that thing? Yeah,
that was King of the Hill, Yeah

852
00:59:06.400 --> 00:59:09.400
exactly, Yeah, that was the
thing that some playgrounds had that like the

853
00:59:09.480 --> 00:59:13.760
big dome and you would like climb
to the top or whatever dome of death.

854
00:59:13.880 --> 00:59:16.119
Yeah yeah, and so yeah,
the Merry Go Round was not I

855
00:59:16.159 --> 00:59:21.360
mean, that's not conducive to child
safety. I'm still I still get motion

856
00:59:21.400 --> 00:59:25.719
sickness, and I blamed it round
for it. I have to I have

857
