00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:29.719
It is time to leave your worries
outside and join us here in the tree

2
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:35.920
House. I'm Daniel Mallley, along
with Trey Trenholme and newest tree House member

3
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:42.000
Raj Sharma. Hello. Raj.
While you may be new to the official

4
00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:46.679
cast of the show, you're in
no way new to the program. That

5
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:53.759
is true. You and I started
doing radio together back in the mid two

6
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:57.359
thousands, a little after Tray and
I met each other. We're doing doing

7
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:02.320
the show as well on the radio. So while I the reason I say

8
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:08.000
this because technically you're a new official
member, yes, but you've been hanging

9
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:12.159
around the Treehouse for a long yeah. And it was very nice. I

10
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:17.159
was just a Dallas comedy club this
weekend and a bunch of listeners were just

11
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:19.640
happened to be there. Uh,
And it was very It was very very

12
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:26.000
cool that they came up in the
like congratulations on being the a permanent on

13
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:27.879
the on the show now, And
I was like, oh, that's kind

14
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:30.239
of cool. Like they came out
and made it a point to say hello

15
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:34.560
and uh and and all of those
things. So that was a that was

16
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:40.239
a nice feeling. Well, I'm
glad you got to feel nice, are

17
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:42.760
we going to be like a radio
station in ten years from now, Rogers

18
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:48.040
still going to be the new member. I think we should, yeah,

19
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:53.359
I think we should absolutely embrace that
kind of like how if I forgot what

20
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.439
the year was that they finally killed
the Edge, but the station that replaced

21
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.120
it is still referred to as the
News Are one O two one. Well,

22
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:04.799
I think it was I even though
they've switched back, I mean,

23
00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:07.879
I think I'm Until the day they
switched back to the Mix one O two

24
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:12.919
nine, it was still the new
now one of two nine, and that

25
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:20.240
was a sounds redundant and confusing all
at the same time. I don't mind.

26
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.919
I don't mind being the permanent new
guy. I don't mind that at

27
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:30.879
all. It's the tree House with
Daniel Malley, Trey Trendholme, and an

28
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:43.360
all new Rash Charma. But all
that hits, that's right, including Abba.

29
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:47.280
So uh. Speaking of aliens and
conspiracy theories, which have been on

30
00:02:47.639 --> 00:02:53.199
top of mind for us in here
recently, Trey Ras shared with me something

31
00:02:54.400 --> 00:03:00.680
the other day that I never really
thought about, and that is he's never

32
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:05.159
seen your dog Daisy. Really,
No, I mean you you. I

33
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:13.039
firmly believe you've made this dog up. Here's why I say that. You

34
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:16.919
you you talk about her, uh, and that's very sweet, But I've

35
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:23.120
never you keep saying this three pound
chihuahua. I have never seen the dog,

36
00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:28.360
and so I think, uh,
you you were making it up.

37
00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:31.919
That is my conspiracy. I could
be. I don't know any There's no

38
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:36.439
pictures, no list like I've I
have when I, like I said,

39
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:38.719
when I had listeners come up and
like, oh my god, I think

40
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.560
this is cool. This was me
at the last thing on the last live

41
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:47.039
event. And there's always the pictures
of you guys. The last one had

42
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:51.560
me in it. But there's no
Nobody has a picture of Daisy. I've

43
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.000
never seen. She's not like Jerry's
bucket of nails. I don't just carry

44
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.039
her around in my car with me. Yep. But it's a but it's

45
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:01.879
a like never makes a sound,
you never hear it, you never see

46
00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:06.360
her, you never there's I just
uh, I think you make I think

47
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:11.639
you're making the dog up. See. Here's here's my theory. I am

48
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:18.199
also stinged by this trade because by
Raj questioning the existence of your tiny Chihuahua

49
00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:25.160
Daisy. At the same time,
he's also questioning my credibility because I state,

50
00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:28.720
and I state it often, that
I have seen Daisy, I have

51
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:32.160
held Daisy, I have played with
Daisy, that chihuahua. I love Daisy

52
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:36.120
like everyone loves Daisy. And now
Raj is questioning both of us. No,

53
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:40.560
no, I'm not seeing I think
it's not questioning any credibility. I

54
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:43.519
think, oh, you just think
I'm crazy and I see Chihuahua's No.

55
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:46.720
I no, I think I think
you just think it's a bit. We've

56
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:48.800
been doing it for thirteen years.
No, I just think that. Well,

57
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:53.319
I actually hang on, in Raj's
defense, there was a made up

58
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:58.839
helicopter for like twenty five years.
So I mean your track record, uh

59
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:02.079
is as our track record says,
do not trust us, all right,

60
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:06.879
but this one it's real, we
swear. I just think because you are

61
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:12.759
such a good friend every time he
talks about his dog, you go along

62
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:15.600
with it like, yes, she
is real, tright, like that's that

63
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:19.639
like that's the that's the vibe I
get from you, that there's no credibility.

64
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:25.120
I think you want Oh, okay, okay, right now, right

65
00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:29.040
now, Trey, you're holding up
what appears to be just the top part

66
00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:32.920
of Daisy's head, which means the
little round head. And then here's oh,

67
00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:38.800
there's some eyeballs, the slower bill. Wait for it. Here's the

68
00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:41.839
thing you haven't seen about Daisy yet. Wait for it. Wow, that

69
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:47.759
is that is a here's the thing
ros that's not even Daisy going full Gene

70
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:51.759
Simmons with her tongue. Wow.
I have an uncle that looks like that.

71
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:00.439
Wow, that is a very small
dog. Okay, I you know,

72
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.040
I'm I'm willing to admit when I'm
wrong. I think that's something you

73
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:06.839
should Look at that guy. Yeah, look at that girl. Hey,

74
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:12.920
how are you You're a We see
she is a real real That is a

75
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:15.920
real jaua. That is a real
three pounds jaua. I got yeah,

76
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:26.120
okay, I stand corrected the dog. So thank you, thank you for

77
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:29.759
that. I just thought you were
a very I know you're a good friend.

78
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:32.560
I thought you were going above and
beyond by when when Trey would talk

79
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:35.519
about this dog and you kind of
had that look on your face like,

80
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:40.199
yes, right, she is real, sort of like sort of like I

81
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:46.680
had a sort of like Tray's psychotherapist
slash asylum manager. As part of his

82
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:51.439
agreed release, needed to be in
someone's supervision, and somehow that was me,

83
00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:54.959
which man I had to speak to
the doctor and the doctor's like,

84
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:59.399
look, we don't want it to
be too jarring for Trey. So when

85
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.959
he says he has a three pound
chuawa, just go with it because we

86
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:09.319
don't want him to go absolutely insane. Yes, it's very shutter island,

87
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:12.680
right, it's very yes, Yes, it's very shutter Island. Like I

88
00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:15.759
think, like when I when I
picture tray walking dog, I just see

89
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:18.319
it from the people across the street, just seeing a man with no just

90
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:21.720
holding a leash like there's nothing.
I had one of those as a kid.

91
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:26.920
They sold them at Disney World.
It was just like the very strong

92
00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:30.360
leash, like the rope and then
it had like the little collar at the

93
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:31.920
end. It just kind of floated
in air. I had one of those.

94
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:34.240
I saw. I saw that when
I was a kid too. It

95
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:38.560
was a six flags I saw.
Maybe that's what it was, six flags.

96
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:42.519
That's right, rights, Your middle
image of me is that, you

97
00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:46.279
know, I'm just a muttering,
delusional old man just putzing around the streets,

98
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.360
you know, holding an empty leash. Yeah, talking to myself.

99
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:54.959
I mean, that's a very Okay, yes, that's a fair assessment.

100
00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:01.319
You said it, not him.
This is this is this is the shutter

101
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:03.199
Island effect again where we're supposed to
go along with that. Yes, Tray,

102
00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:09.079
I mean we do see that.
I didn't say muttering. You did,

103
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:18.199
but but you definitely are putzing around. But now I have to take

104
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:22.319
that image out. Now there's an
actual dog. I don't I don't believe

105
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:24.439
you. I don't know if she
walks a lot. She's a very small

106
00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:28.160
dog. But I will, I
will, I will take it. I

107
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:33.720
will take it back. You're not
one of those crazy people that talks about

108
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:37.960
their their animal like it's it's real, or like a person like it's real.

109
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:43.879
You're you. You're officially a dog
owner. Uh. And I apologize

110
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:50.480
for any preconceived notion I had of
trade Trino, but you're gonna stick with

111
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:54.240
a part of him putzing around bumbling
to himself. I like muttering. Muttering

112
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.639
is good muttering. This sounds like
you know he's going to mutter one day,

113
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:03.240
like he's well that right there.
I'm with you on Rogers because everything

114
00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:07.559
that you described, actually, I'm
sorry, everything that Trey described isn't so

115
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:13.240
much what I think Trey looks like
now, but it definitely sounds like what

116
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.480
Trey will look like in about twenty
twenty five years. Yes, like you're

117
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:18.960
gonna have that guy like you're the
guy that yells at people to get off

118
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:22.399
their lawn. Like I can see
that. No, no, no,

119
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:24.840
Trey's gonna be wait wait, do
you mean Trey's gonna be the guy walking

120
00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:28.320
by that tells people to get off
their own lawn or to get off of

121
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:33.480
his lawn. Either one would be
hilarious, but to tell people to get

122
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:39.679
off their own lawn, this seems
like something he would do. Get off

123
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:50.080
your lawn, you're killing the grass. Yeah. And the thing is,

124
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.399
what's the reason why Tray is gonna
be saying get off get off the grass,

125
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:56.759
or get off your lawn. So
it's so my imaginary three pounds chihuahua

126
00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:03.360
can take a poop on it.
I just says he and my like Raj

127
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:09.840
sees me is like, you know, uh, you know a character from

128
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:13.639
the Carol Carol Burnett show. You
know Tim what? Yeah? Tim Conway

129
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:16.960
was the butler and he would just
you know, puts around and he had

130
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:22.360
little steps muttering to himself. I
mean, I will actually give you more

131
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:28.440
credit than that. You're You're like
the bell hop from Faulty Towers, Like

132
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:31.679
like he says stuff. He says
stuff. Nobody really knows what he's saying,

133
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:35.799
but he believes it to be important. Like that's like he's just gonna

134
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:37.240
under his breath, is like,
you're gonna do this, So somehow,

135
00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:41.039
somehow, you take it the fact
you've never seen my dog to you know,

136
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:48.120
some semblance of senility for me,
I watch Shutter Island. You're you're

137
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:52.080
Lena. I'm giving you Leonardo DiCaprio
status because I've never seen your girlfriend.

138
00:10:54.120 --> 00:11:07.480
That is true. That is that
we're listening to the Treehouse. Visit us

139
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:22.399
online that Treehouse on air dot com. Yeah, walked into that one.

140
00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:26.799
Now, let's get Rodney Anderson into
the Treehouse. Nine seven two nine fifty

141
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:31.080
two hundred is the phone number you
will need. That's nine seven two hundred,

142
00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:35.080
the website Rodney Anderson dot com.
Rodney, We've talked for years about

143
00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:39.039
how you do a cash out refinance
to help people get out of credit card

144
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.720
debt. But I'm wondering if you
can give a couple of other reasons that

145
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:46.600
a cash out refinance might help someone
Yeah, we're doing a lot of cash

146
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:52.559
our refinances for people buying land,
buying second homes, buying investment properties,

147
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.799
paying off the irs, paying out, paying off an ex spouse when it

148
00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:00.879
comes to divorce. Those are just
several reasons why Dan and one thing people

149
00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:03.679
need to be aware of. Land

166
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:30.840
are a a good time to throw
out the reminder that the show was now

167
00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:35.440
available on YouTube, So if you
two like to see the slow reveal of

168
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:41.960
Daisy on Trey's camera, you can
enjoy that much like RAJ got to,

169
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:48.159
Oh, there's the twelve pound cat
looking at Trey like, put me down,

170
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:56.080
you j a hole. That's that's
all cats think. Lester Shows would

171
00:13:56.120 --> 00:14:00.679
have made a tray holding a pussy
joke for the first time in months,

172
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:07.559
but we're not that show. I'm
convinced my cat like although a lot of

173
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:09.919
times he's dumb as a boxer,
rocks. Then at night, though,

174
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:13.320
I wake up the next morning and
I see how he's he moves all his

175
00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:16.120
toys around and everything else, and
I'm like, you know, it's like

176
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:24.600
he's playing risk and he figured out
how to hold china. It's like,

177
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.600
what are you doing at night?
Like dogs playing checkers? He's you know,

178
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:35.360
conquering the world. Yeah, that's
that's uh. I like how the

179
00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:39.919
uh the daytime is for for him. I guess to rest up. Oh

180
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:43.639
yeah, and then and then at
night he's like, now, yeah,

181
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:46.960
well, well well while the world
is sleeping, I will make my moves

182
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:48.559
exactly. It makes sense. See
the rest of us, the rest of

183
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.240
us watched Pinky in the Brain as
children thinking oh, what a funny,

184
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:56.720
cute show, or or actually with
our age group, we watched Pinky in

185
00:14:56.759 --> 00:14:58.039
the Brain like, this is a
fun show to watch. I don't care

186
00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:05.600
if you're a kid or a old
Tray's cat watches it for ideas on how

187
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:11.679
to take over the world. Oh
yeah, I'm allergic to cats, but

188
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:16.840
it seems your cat seems lovely.
It's just like when you picked it up

189
00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:20.200
and then you put it down and
you started scratching your chest and that made

190
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:24.879
me start a chick. Oh I
just I was just brushing some the hair

191
00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:31.039
off. That's just Tray's not used
to having pussy all over him. Remember

192
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:37.720
earlier when I said, a lesser
show sometimes you gotta take them. Where

193
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:43.200
are they give it given? I
think that's a solid slug line. The

194
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:52.080
Treehouse a lesser show, better than
your lesser show. I would, I

195
00:15:52.080 --> 00:15:56.759
would, I'd listen to it,
I'd watch it. Yeah, I'd put

196
00:15:56.759 --> 00:16:00.480
that on a sticker. Yeah.
Yeah. So anyway it is. It

197
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:03.519
is a good time to remind you
that we are on YouTube if you'd like

198
00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:07.480
to actually watch the show. The
three new words that we've sort of associated

199
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:11.200
with the show now are listen,
watch, follow. There's a bunch of

200
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:15.360
other words that fall into all of
those, including like and subscribe and stalk

201
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:18.559
and all these other types of things. The main thing is we just hope

202
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.440
you enjoy the Show's that's the main
thing. And if you don't, f

203
00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:29.600
off to do pretty simple. It's
a very simple calculus. So speaking of

204
00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:33.039
a calculus, I'm not going to
make a student math because dear God,

205
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:34.600
if I don't have to do it, I don't want to do it.

206
00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:37.120
Not that I'm bad at it,
it just like anything, if you don't

207
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:41.679
have a passion for it, then
why why bother. So as far as

208
00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:47.080
a formula goes. Trey told me
something the other day and I'm curious to

209
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:53.480
hear more about it, and that
is that your energy drink usage is related

210
00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:57.600
to your age. And I'm wondering
how that is. Trey, Oh yeah,

211
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:03.200
all right. So I work at
this place, standard Port, and

212
00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:06.200
and I was talking to one of
the servers, and you know, nights

213
00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:10.960
that I close, I've typically going
from six pm too somewhere between three four

214
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:15.079
am. So old man needs an
energy drink to get them through the night.

215
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:18.359
And I bought a couple Celsius.
And I was talking to one of

216
00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:23.839
the servers and and she's twenty two
and energy drink. The energy drink,

217
00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:29.559
yes, So I'm a big fan
of those. And she's like, oh

218
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:30.960
my gosh, I wish I had
one. I said, well, I

219
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:33.759
got an extra one. You can
have it. And this is like nine

220
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:37.640
thirty. I'm like, yeah,
I'm about to have my noun so h

221
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:40.359
And she's like, oh, oh, I appreciate it, but now I

222
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:42.359
can't drink it. Now. I'll
wait till like twelve one o'clock. That

223
00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:45.680
way i'll have the energy to get
through the night. And I'm like there

224
00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:51.079
is the difference. Like I am
trying to backtime my energy drinking to where

225
00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:55.559
the anything it gives me. It
gies down right about three three thirty in

226
00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:57.240
the morning, so by the time
I get home, I am ready to

227
00:17:57.279 --> 00:18:02.319
go to bed. In your twenties, your thing of that energy drink is

228
00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:04.400
the key to it gets you through
the night. You can see the sunrise.

229
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:10.200
Now that that actually makes sense,
especially with her midnight timing, because

230
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:12.599
she sees it as like you said, Trey, she needs an energy drink

231
00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:17.119
to get her over the hump,
to make sure she feels just as awake

232
00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:21.680
at twelve oh one am as she
did at eleven fifty nine PM. Yeah,

233
00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:23.759
yeah, I don't. I don't
do the I don't do the energy

234
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:30.599
drinks. I don't do coffee or
tea or the the energy drinks. So

235
00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:37.079
but it's like then, no,
I mean, what was a My ex

236
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:38.960
wife had the best sense. She
goes so you just kind of what wake

237
00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:41.319
up? I'm like, yep,
that's kind of yep. I just kind

238
00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:45.599
of get up. Uh. And
I usually beat my alarm. Uh.

239
00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:51.000
So like today was eight thirty eight
thirty, I was up. I usually

240
00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:56.640
beat my alarm too. It's usually
with a baseball back. Yeah, I

241
00:18:56.720 --> 00:19:03.079
just I've never had never been a
needed a cup like needed a cup of

242
00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:04.880
coffee in the morning. I'm not
that guy. I have never had to

243
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:10.960
do that. I've never I've never
purchased. I can say this with so

244
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:15.759
much confidence. I have never purchased
coffee from Starbucks. Never, not one

245
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:19.680
time. Just like I've never had
Chipotlin. I've never had Starbucks. I've

246
00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:25.079
had I've had bottled water from the
Starbucks because it feeds, uh like build

247
00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:29.480
small villages, like it brings clean
water to villages in Africa, according to

248
00:19:29.519 --> 00:19:33.839
the ad on the bottle. But
I've never had I don't. I've never

249
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.640
had the coffee or the tea or
like even when we did back in the

250
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:40.599
day when we did Saturday nights and
was nine to midnight. I think it

251
00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:42.039
is what it was. I never
had a coffee out of the break room.

252
00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:45.599
I never had I've never had a
I've never had a I've never I've

253
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:51.079
had Red Bull one time, and
I will never do that again. What

254
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:55.559
did it do? Yeah, I
slept for about fifteen hours, like I

255
00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:57.759
crashed, like I had I had
I was doing a show. This will

256
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:00.480
let you know how did it at
least get you, Like, did it

257
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:04.759
initially give you wings and then you
crashed? Or did you it just immediately

258
00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:08.200
knocked you out. I was here's
how old, Here's how long ago?

259
00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:11.519
Was are you ready? I was
doing a show at the Bronco Bowl.

260
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:29.720
Wow, who are you? There's
only one? Uh no, it was

261
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:34.559
it was a local show and uh
it was sponsored by red Bull, So

262
00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:37.960
that's all. And I when I
say sponsored by red Bull, that's all

263
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:44.839
they had. So in the Greenland
there was these giant silver and blue drums

264
00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:48.599
that had just i mean filled at
the top with Red Bull. And I

265
00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:51.559
was like, I hear it's a
here, it's all the rage, so

266
00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:53.559
I will give it a shot.
And I had one and I was like,

267
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:56.920
I don't really like the flavor of
it, but okay, this is

268
00:20:56.920 --> 00:21:00.079
supposed to nothing happened, and it's
like it's it's for me. It was

269
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:04.119
like the weed gummy right, like
the edible, Like you're trying to go,

270
00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:07.279
nothing's happening right now, so let
me just eat more. So I

271
00:21:07.319 --> 00:21:11.440
had the one and I was like, nothing's happening. So I had one

272
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.960
immediately after that and I finished.
Yeah, I finished my set, and

273
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:18.559
I got home and I was on
the couch and I woke up the next

274
00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:23.400
day fifteen hours later on the couch
in the same spot. I was like,

275
00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:26.480
this energy stuff is not good for
me. Well, Roger doesn't sound

276
00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:29.880
to me like you got red Bull
And it sounds to me like, is

277
00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:34.880
you got GHB that was packaged in
a Red Bull can? Uh? Yeah,

278
00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:38.480
I have. I have been slipped. Uh. I got slipped GHB

279
00:21:38.640 --> 00:21:41.920
while I was in a bar in
Houston. That did happen. And I

280
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.079
should have I should have kind of
known when because I thought that we just

281
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:49.039
got an extra beer. Uh,
like like like the bartenders do that,

282
00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:52.960
they just give you an extra beer. And the guy who when I go,

283
00:21:52.039 --> 00:21:56.720
hey, I extra beer, and
I cheered a buddy of mine and

284
00:21:56.759 --> 00:21:57.359
he's like, did you order that? I was like, I thought you

285
00:21:57.480 --> 00:22:02.359
ordered and I'd already started drinking.
The guy whose beer was that was sitting

286
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:06.119
next to me was so bombed.
Uh, he couldn't speak, but with

287
00:22:06.160 --> 00:22:07.720
his eyes, I was like,
this is not gonna be fun for you.

288
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:15.680
Even even through his fog, even
through his haze, he knew that

289
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:18.359
that you were going to go down
in flames. And I did, like,

290
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:22.240
here was the weirdest thing about it
is in my like coherent like I

291
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.599
could see I'm about to walk into
this wall. I'm about to walk into

292
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:30.359
this wall. I can't stop it, but I can like literally talking to

293
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:32.720
myself, going, I'm about I'm
about to walk into this wall. Face

294
00:22:32.759 --> 00:22:34.039
first, I'm gonna walk into this
wall. You gotta stop. And I

295
00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:37.960
couldn't do anything about it, So
I just gotta stood there. And I

296
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:40.720
was like, Oh, that's what
that dude was feeling the whole time.

297
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:42.799
But no, I've never had to
do like that's the only time did that

298
00:22:42.799 --> 00:22:45.519
happen. But I never did like, I've never had the like the monster.

299
00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:48.160
I think that was a rage for
a while, and then like still

300
00:22:48.240 --> 00:22:52.440
is still his energy drinks are are
a huge or a huge billion dollar industry.

301
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:57.000
Are they still doing the vodka energy
drink stuff? Some people still do.

302
00:22:57.079 --> 00:23:00.279
Some people still do vodka. Red
Bull is up the thing. I

303
00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:06.720
still I still on inccasion hear people
order that it's not as common as it

304
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:10.039
used to be. I'm not sure. I'm not sure if it's it's I

305
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:11.079
don't know, if it was more
of a fad drink for a while.

306
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:14.240
Trey, you're the one that works
in the service industry right now? Are

307
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:17.200
people still ordering that a lot?
Oh yeah, people fill order of vodka

308
00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:19.759
Red Bull all the time. Yeah, you know, that actually makes sense

309
00:23:19.799 --> 00:23:26.200
because I don't hang around with people
that want the vodka red Bull anymore.

310
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:29.799
Like I had a certain age group, you might have wanted it. But

311
00:23:29.839 --> 00:23:33.079
then in like Treys saying, at
a certain point, you're you're back timing

312
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:36.920
when you want to go to bed, and so if I'm doing vodka Red

313
00:23:36.920 --> 00:23:38.960
Bull and it's like, well,
that's that's kind of a that's a gray

314
00:23:40.039 --> 00:23:41.799
area there. Either I'm gonna pass
out in five minutes or I'm gonna be

315
00:23:41.799 --> 00:23:45.319
awake for five days. Yeah,
that's the weird Like I've never I know,

316
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:48.920
they outlawed, not outlawed, but
like a lot of clubs in the

317
00:23:49.000 --> 00:23:55.200
UK don't serve vodka Red Bull because
it does exactly what you're saying, like

318
00:23:55.240 --> 00:23:56.960
it'll hype you up, but then
the liquors of the pressant. Yeah,

319
00:23:57.400 --> 00:24:00.359
it's kind of like taking a Viking
in while doing you know, like a

320
00:24:00.400 --> 00:24:06.920
bump a blow. Yeah, So
and your body's like, what what happens

321
00:24:06.960 --> 00:24:08.279
at that point? What does your
body do? Did it? Did it

322
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:11.400
just stay flat then because you've taken
both at the same time. And I

323
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:15.240
don't know. I don't. I've
never I've never had I've never done the

324
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:18.160
it scientific. What it does is
is that basically the part of the brain

325
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:22.599
that would keep like put you to
sleep, stays awake, so you keep

326
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:27.839
drinking, and so you just get
a more intense drunk. Uh. I

327
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:33.480
mean that's buying any of the in
any of those things. Yeah. Now

328
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:37.200
the consumer side of it is I
just stay awake longer so I can just

329
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:42.599
keep partying, right And Dan,
you don't see it because I've been out

330
00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:45.240
with you and you and your wife
on the islands. You're in bed by

331
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:51.519
ten o'clock. I don't need your
judgment. I've not. It's not really

332
00:24:51.559 --> 00:24:55.240
a judgment. And sometimes it's envy. But I'm just saying, you know,

333
00:24:55.640 --> 00:24:59.039
people you know, no, no, no, couples are going to

334
00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:02.279
Loubi's for dinner thirty and then popping
a vodka Red Bull so they can stay

335
00:25:02.359 --> 00:25:06.880
up till ten o'clock. Well,
you don't know. Perhaps there's a there's

336
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:11.039
a there's a perhaps there's a dark
corner of the island that not only has

337
00:25:11.119 --> 00:25:15.359
a Loubi's but serves vodka Red Bulls. So if that way you're really feeling

338
00:25:15.400 --> 00:25:18.480
like having a fist pumping good time, you can go next door to the

339
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:23.519
Golden Corral and and and chew on
the chocolate fountain until ten. Yeah.

340
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:26.880
Well, I mean, I guess
they can stay awake so they can catch

341
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:30.119
the Blue Buds. It comes on
at nine o'clock and then they'll be passed

342
00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:34.680
out at ten. Uh. Yeah, I think it is. I'm I'm

343
00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:37.799
a big fan. I don't know
if you guys know this about me.

344
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:42.279
I am a fan of the Loubi's. I'm a big fan. I tried

345
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:45.319
to go get their dinner one night. It was about three months ago.

346
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.920
Do you know they close at eight? I don't know if you knew that.

347
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:52.839
I thought they were all just closed. I'm more stunned by the fact

348
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:56.720
that you found it open Louby's at
all. Oh. Yes, they're midway

349
00:25:56.799 --> 00:26:00.480
and six thirty five. Yep,
oh that one, okay, Yeah,

350
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:03.720
yeah, I think that's one of
the few that's still holding strong. And

351
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:07.599
I'm surprised they're even open until eight. I mean, they're They're dinner rush

352
00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:11.160
is literally four to six. Yeah. Yeah, So I went and I'm

353
00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:15.319
you know, I'm not I'm not
at that of that age group. I

354
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:17.559
was like, you know, it's
about eight thirty I could use I could

355
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:22.799
use uh some turkey breast and dressing. And I went and there were no

356
00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:25.440
cars in the parking lot. I
was like, Oh, this is gonna

357
00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:30.440
be easy. And then I got
to the doormans eight thirty nine, ten

358
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:33.839
maybe uh, and They're like,
nope, we've been closed for an hour.

359
00:26:34.039 --> 00:26:37.839
I was like, wow, you
know, because of so few Luby's

360
00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:44.759
locations left and the possibilities they're in
with open places, Trey, I think

361
00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:48.559
I think your bar could take advantage
here of a gaping hole in the service

362
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:55.599
industry, and that is at the
standard poor in Dallas. In Uptown on

363
00:26:55.759 --> 00:27:00.240
McKinney Avenue, free idea. Here
you do a vodka Red Bull happy hour

364
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:10.720
m paired with a lovely luan platter. So not only do you get everything

365
00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:14.759
that comes with both of those items, one beverage and one drink, but

366
00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:21.480
you also get to cross the demographic
threshold of twenty one to about sixty four.

367
00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:29.039
So you will have one of the
most diverse age groups anywhere in Dallas,

368
00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:34.319
all coming for the Vodka Red Bull
Luen platter pair the hottest spot from

369
00:27:34.359 --> 00:27:41.400
like seven to nine, because that's
when they're getting turned up. So take

370
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:52.680
me home and watch the news at
ten. J's asleep by eleven. You

371
00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:56.359
gotta you gotta put a little sock
on on the old fist pumper. Go

to welcome into the treehouse. Daniel Cook

374
00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:30.680
from cook DFW Roofing and Restoration.
The phone number that you can use to

375
00:28:30.720 --> 00:28:33.920
get that free roof inspection is eight
three three cook DFW. The website cook

376
00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:37.640
dfw dot com. So, Daniel, I know you're outside a lot as

377
00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:41.960
a roofer. That means you're on
roofs a lot in this heat. Ever

378
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:45.559
had anybody call you because they're roof
melted? Dan, Not exactly, but

379
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:51.599
pretty close. We've been on some
roofs that you would not leave how much

380
00:28:51.720 --> 00:28:56.640
the shingles have cracked and separated and
started to literally disintegrate on some of these

381
00:28:56.640 --> 00:29:00.799
homes. And it's scary because a
lot of people had no idea that actually

382
00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:04.680
heat can ruin your roof. Just
like you know, everybody's always panicking about

383
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:08.599
hail and wind, but the sun
and the heat that we get here in

384
00:29:08.599 --> 00:29:14.440
North Texas is damaging very much to
our roofs. And so even if you

385
00:29:14.519 --> 00:29:18.680
do not think you have damage,
you need to get your roof inspected annually.

386
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:21.200
And that was one of the biggest
reasons. Why is the heat that

387
00:29:21.240 --> 00:29:26.000
we have here, nothing can sustain
it long term. So you gotta protect

388
00:29:26.039 --> 00:29:27.920
your home and do yourself a favor. Call us out. We love to

389
00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:30.960
check it. If you have these
type of damages, we can at least

390
00:29:32.160 --> 00:29:34.279
alert you to them before they get
worse. And that's why it's such a

391
00:29:34.319 --> 00:29:38.920
great thing that cook DFW Roofing and
Restoration offers that free roof inspection. Like

392
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:42.839
Daniel said, they'll come out take

get Jacqueline from Brooks Plumbing into the treehouse

396
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:02.359
now their phone number two one four
three six eight thirty eight thirty eight.

397

The Websitebrooks Plumbing Texas dot com.
The other day we were discussing Oliver,

398
00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:10.720
who's your journeyman plumbers? And I
think most people don't understand what that means.

399
00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:12.359
They hear journeyman that they think you're
just kind of running around company.

400
00:30:12.400 --> 00:30:15.480
The company is almost like a freelance. But that's not the case, right,

401
00:30:15.759 --> 00:30:18.680
No. I mean, if you
want to go into the trade,

402
00:30:18.759 --> 00:30:21.559
any trade, especially if it's is
a license trade, the first thing you

403
00:30:21.599 --> 00:30:26.000
should do is find the governing department. We're governed by the Texas State Board

404
00:30:26.000 --> 00:30:30.200
of Plumbing Examiners, which is a
department of the Texas government, and you

405
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:33.000
have to have a certain amount of
hours in the field hands on experience to

406
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:37.839
qualify, to go to state to
take the test to essentially level up.

407
00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:41.200
It's kind of like catching a mushroom
or a star and I'm playing Mario.

408
00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:45.519
To become a licensed plumber, I've
said this before, you actually have to

409
00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:49.640
have more time in the field to
test than you do to become a commercial

410
00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:53.319
airline pilot. And a lot of
plumbers just kind of get stuck. They'll

411
00:30:53.359 --> 00:30:56.799
fill out the apprentice card and they'll
never apply to go test anywhere. They'll

412
00:30:57.599 --> 00:31:02.920
they'll never move up. Journeyman plumber
is the sweet spot because a lot of

413
00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:04.960
people are nervous about working with the
master plumber because they're nervous that they're going

414
00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:08.440
to overpay. But every plumbing company
in the state of Texas has to have

415
00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:14.799
a responsible master plumber to be operational. So if you don't see what I

416
00:31:14.880 --> 00:31:17.960
call an M number on the truck, it's going to be M and then

417
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:22.160
some series of numbers either four or
five. That means that they're they're not

418
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:25.240
licensed. And so you should be
weary of somebody's truck who pulls up to

419
00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:27.920
your house that doesn't have an M
number on it. Jacqueline will teach me

420
00:31:29.039 --> 00:31:32.720
and you anything and everything about plumbing
given the opportunity. And this is why

421
00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:36.079
I love having her in the Treehouse, because I like knowing things, and

422
00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:38.000
I like to make sure that I'm
not being taken advantage of or I'm not

423
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:41.640
having the wrong person or the wrong
company into my home. And that's why

424
00:31:41.640 --> 00:31:45.200
we recommend them here in the Treehouse. Give him a call two one,

00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:25.400
thank you to Jacklin and also the
Oliver, the plumber that came to my

432
00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:32.000
house the other day with the other
plumber to crawl underneath my house lay some

433
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:38.799
pipe so that way we no longer
have any more roaches in the house.

434
00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:49.640
So thank you to Brooks Plumber.
You are way too hard at that.

435
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:57.319
I'm just saying that it's a very
very thorough company. It is. They

436
00:32:57.359 --> 00:33:02.640
went to the deepest, darkest places
and laid laid the good pipe. They

437
00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:10.160
did look out the old nasty pipe
and put it a good one. You

438
00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:13.319
know, as a plumber, they
it's got to get old, all the

439
00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:17.200
jokes that they must hear, or
all the nonsense and like rights sort of

440
00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:22.000
like sort of like you as a
stand up comedian. Anytime you get a

441
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:24.920
heckler, you've been doing it so
long, I'm sure every heckler thinks they're

442
00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:29.200
the first one to think of this
particular heckle, like, I bet he

443
00:33:29.240 --> 00:33:31.279
hadn't you know he because they think
no one's ever come before them. But

444
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:35.240
they're wrong. Same thing probably that
the plumber has to go through. It's

445
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:40.400
like, really another pipe joke.
Great they make they make. I didn't

446
00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:44.359
really as a kid, you don't
think, like when you get older,

447
00:33:44.359 --> 00:33:46.799
you're like, oh, I had
no idea that how much money they actually

448
00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:52.279
make, like they yes, they
do very very very well. I did

449
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:54.839
not know that. I just thought
like a buddy of mine, one of

450
00:33:54.839 --> 00:34:00.599
my frams college actually like quit school
to go into to apprentice with plumbing and

451
00:34:00.640 --> 00:34:06.640
pipe fitting. That's what he That's
what he did because of how much money

452
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:09.119
was on the table. And this
is back in ninety sixty seven, but

453
00:34:09.199 --> 00:34:12.960
how much money was on the table
for him. And he's like, I

454
00:34:13.000 --> 00:34:15.400
can't justify any more student loans,
so I'm gonna go do this, and

455
00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:20.920
then he started. It was unbelievable. I you when you're a kid,

456
00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:22.559
I'm like, oh, I guess
you just figure out you can fix pipes.

457
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:27.079
I don't think. I don't know
how. I don't know how that

458
00:34:27.119 --> 00:34:30.679
works. Again, how you get
you know, you know, snaked down

459
00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:36.960
a certain path. But I don't
want to get on too much of a

460
00:34:37.039 --> 00:34:38.679
high horse here. But I know
I've told you guys over the years in

461
00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:45.760
the past, I'm not anti college
at all, but I'm anti the college

462
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:52.800
racket that has been forced on the
last couple of generations, saying you have

463
00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:55.440
to go to college, you have
to get a degree, otherwise you can't

464
00:34:55.440 --> 00:35:00.719
get, let alone a good job. Now nowadays it's been extended to you

465
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:05.320
really can't get any job without a
college degree, or at least not a

466
00:35:05.440 --> 00:35:10.519
job that you'd want, when the
reality is there are plenty of great other

467
00:35:10.639 --> 00:35:15.679
options, like going into the trades, and going into the trades for some

468
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:21.159
reason, started to be looked down
upon when in the reality of it is,

469
00:35:21.639 --> 00:35:27.840
you can make a very very lovely
life for yourself being a tradesman,

470
00:35:27.880 --> 00:35:31.760
whether it's as a plumber or a
contractor. I mean think of all like

471
00:35:32.199 --> 00:35:39.440
HGTV as an entire channel, yeah, built on trades. Yeah. Yeah.

472
00:35:40.039 --> 00:35:43.519
And so that the college thing always
has been, It's like, and

473
00:35:43.639 --> 00:35:46.400
I think I think this most I
think this most current generation. I'm not

474
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:51.519
sure if it's why or double Z
or whatever. It is, like the

475
00:35:51.639 --> 00:35:55.400
college age eighteen to twenty four year
olds right now are starting to realize life

476
00:35:55.440 --> 00:36:00.960
is shorter than everyone has told us. So we're not going to screw around

477
00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:04.800
and waste a bunch of time doing
things we don't want to do. And

478
00:36:04.920 --> 00:36:07.639
for some of them that means going
to work, but for some of them

479
00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:09.719
it also means that they don't want
to take on a bunch of debt and

480
00:36:09.760 --> 00:36:15.480
they'd rather go do something else.
Yeah, well that's that's that. It

481
00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:19.559
absolutely has been a racket that you
know. I mean when we were growing

482
00:36:19.639 --> 00:36:22.440
up, we were the age like
you had to go to college, and

483
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:25.840
it's ridiculous because we all went to
school with people, know people whatever.

484
00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:29.519
It's like, man, that guy
didn't need to go to college. What

485
00:36:29.599 --> 00:36:34.639
he needed is you know, he
doesn't need calculus or trigonometry. But starting

486
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:36.880
in high school, had he taught
him how to be an electrician, a

487
00:36:36.880 --> 00:36:39.559
plumber, a mechanic, something like
that, he goes on and he's got

488
00:36:39.599 --> 00:36:45.440
a vocation that in this day and
age, you can easily earn six figures

489
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:47.880
being a plumber, a mechanic,
whatever, and and carve out a very

490
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:52.880
nice life for yourself. Yeah,
I just you know, it's again,

491
00:36:52.039 --> 00:36:55.480
it's one of those things like you
don't like nobody gives you that as an

492
00:36:55.480 --> 00:36:59.239
option, nobody presents itself, and
going, you know what I think you

493
00:36:59.079 --> 00:37:01.599
you might be you might be really
good at like he said, an electrician

494
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:07.280
or a carpenter or a mechanic,
like you might be that inclined in that

495
00:37:07.360 --> 00:37:10.119
way. Like, but that's and
that's, and that's and and then part

496
00:37:10.159 --> 00:37:15.119
of the problem with school when we
all went it was those things were looked

497
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:19.920
down upon, though, because the
smart kids were in the AP classes doing

498
00:37:19.960 --> 00:37:22.519
those things, and the dumb kids
keep using finger quotes a lot. Sorry,

499
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:27.280
but it's it's for effect here or
not just for effect, it's for

500
00:37:27.320 --> 00:37:30.760
a reason. And then and then
the dumb kids were the ones that were

501
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:37.559
in wood shop or whatever, and
when in reality, those things are are

502
00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:40.760
skills that everyone would be nice if
everyone had some more knowledge in. But

503
00:37:42.079 --> 00:37:47.360
yeah, so the hypocrisy in it
is you would look down on, say

504
00:37:47.400 --> 00:37:51.840
the kids that went into wood shop
or something and hold up on a pedestal

505
00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:58.800
the kids that you know took the
AP classes and go to college. But

506
00:37:58.840 --> 00:38:01.679
I lost my train of thought,
damn it. You know, if you

507
00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:07.920
really read something had come back on
that MRI if you want a great a

508
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:14.000
great example when we had a high
storm in February of twenty twenty one,

509
00:38:15.000 --> 00:38:20.559
like all the all the people with
college degrees were going, oh crap and

510
00:38:20.800 --> 00:38:22.639
calling the guys that you know,
you made to look down. I'm going

511
00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:25.079
and they're going, you'd be a
thousand an hour and I'll get tea in

512
00:38:25.119 --> 00:38:30.679
about a week and yeah, And
all of a sudden, people realize that

513
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:35.760
there's something called a water meter or
a water main that needs to be turned

514
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:37.519
off, and they what that is. Yeah, you know, and you

515
00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:42.960
and you kind of hit the nail
on the head on like everybody the wood

516
00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:46.519
shop and and all that stuff was
wherever, Like you just automatically have that

517
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:49.679
picture in your head. It's just
a bunch of potheads or a bunch of

518
00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:53.440
drugs, you know whatever. Kids
that were weren't. We're gonna graduate at

519
00:38:53.440 --> 00:38:55.920
the top of the class. Yeah, but they get to come home with

520
00:38:57.000 --> 00:39:02.119
a really badass bird house. Yeah. And you're like, that's what the

521
00:39:02.159 --> 00:39:06.480
stigma was. And I remember now
where where it was. I got lost

522
00:39:06.519 --> 00:39:10.760
in my thought, which was the
stigma from some people from the elitists or

523
00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:17.079
whatever about the wood shop or Hollmack
or whatever versus AP classes. When who

524
00:39:17.119 --> 00:39:22.760
shows up on career day it's the
doctor, it's the lawyer, it's it's

525
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:28.519
the high falutin job. I don't
ever remember on career day someone's dad or

526
00:39:28.599 --> 00:39:32.719
uncle coming in that was say a
contractor or a plumber, because it was

527
00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:35.960
kind of looked down. Not even
the kids would be like, I don't

528
00:39:35.960 --> 00:39:38.320
want my dad to come. You
use the plumber. Yeah, and that's

529
00:39:38.360 --> 00:39:43.639
sad. Yeah, And it wasn't
like again, it wasn't until one of

530
00:39:43.639 --> 00:39:45.760
my Mike Evans, Uh Mike said
he's like, you know what, I'm

531
00:39:45.840 --> 00:39:47.800
just gonna quit school. And I
was like, oh, you can't.

532
00:39:47.800 --> 00:39:50.599
And I was that guy. I'm
like, well you can't do that.

533
00:39:51.159 --> 00:39:52.480
You gotta you gotta finish school.
Yeah, like, well I'm gonna be

534
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:55.880
I'm gonna go ahead an apprentice and
do this plumbing and pipe fit. And

535
00:39:55.920 --> 00:39:59.360
I was like, okay, seriously, how much money can you? And

536
00:39:59.360 --> 00:40:01.360
then he told to me. I've
ran into him a couple of years later

537
00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:04.719
and he's like this what I make
now? And I'm like You've got to

538
00:40:04.760 --> 00:40:07.800
be eff and kidding me like and
he's like, don't think about it,

539
00:40:07.880 --> 00:40:12.079
dude. I'm like you don't.
It's until you need somebody. It's until

540
00:40:12.119 --> 00:40:14.440
you have a nice storm. It's
until you have something where you're like,

541
00:40:14.800 --> 00:40:20.599
oh, now, it's they can
charge me whatever they want to because the

542
00:40:20.679 --> 00:40:23.199
balls in their court. Now I'm
like, oh that makes so much sense.

543
00:40:23.239 --> 00:40:28.800
Now, I'm I'm not I'm not
very mechanically inclined form like I can.

544
00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:31.800
I can maybe maybe, you know, I can reset the time on

545
00:40:31.840 --> 00:40:37.519
the microwave. Uh. And my
mom would every time. Uh yep,

546
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:40.920
I know, ye, thank you, but my mother, my my my

547
00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:45.320
mother got Russia soul would go,
you know, you should be engineer because

548
00:40:45.360 --> 00:40:47.559
I changed the time on the microwave. I think there's a lot more to

549
00:40:47.639 --> 00:40:52.239
it, uh than said you should
be in an engineer engineer. Yeah,

550
00:40:52.360 --> 00:40:55.159
you should be an engineer. And
I was like, really, because I

551
00:40:55.320 --> 00:40:59.719
changed the clock time on the microwave. I think there's like if I walked

552
00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:02.320
into school, if I was an
engineering college and it was just a room

553
00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:06.440
full of microwaves, I'm like,
ah, scam got it. Yeah.

554
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:13.039
Yeah. It sounds to me like
their career Day Pathway test that your mom

555
00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:17.880
took was far different than the ones
we took. They need to bring like

556
00:41:19.039 --> 00:41:21.480
for career day, like they need
to bring Like my mom was a nurse,

557
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:25.280
so they're like they need to bring
them in just because just the stories.

558
00:41:25.800 --> 00:41:30.039
I mean like people should get into
like get into nursing. I'm gonna

559
00:41:30.039 --> 00:41:34.079
be a I'm gonna be a caregiver
and a provider and I'm gonna heal the

560
00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:37.159
sit the stories that my mom would
tell you. I'm like, this is

561
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:40.039
why you got into it. This
is why you got into nursing. Had

562
00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:44.800
nothing to do with caring for people. It was literally like she would always

563
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:46.000
come back to you know who I
had something in that bum. I was

564
00:41:46.039 --> 00:41:55.559
like, oh no, I was
like, where do you work? That

565
00:41:55.719 --> 00:41:59.360
is? That is actually an interesting
twist on that, because yeah, I

566
00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:04.920
think the idea or the secret that
everyone that goes into like the medical field

567
00:42:05.000 --> 00:42:09.199
or especially nursing, you know,
the great secret or the scam is I

568
00:42:09.239 --> 00:42:13.920
got into nursing because I really feel
I want to help people, want to

569
00:42:13.960 --> 00:42:16.880
heal people. I want to have
them feel as much comfort as they can

570
00:42:17.119 --> 00:42:21.559
in their most difficult of times.
Yeah, that's what they tell everybody.

571
00:42:21.719 --> 00:42:23.719
Accept all their friends and family when
they come home and do what your mom

572
00:42:23.719 --> 00:42:27.239
did, It's like, guess who
had something stuck in their butt today,

573
00:42:28.559 --> 00:42:30.199
I don't know why people do drugs
and put things in their bump. I'm

574
00:42:30.199 --> 00:42:36.679
like, I don't, don't.
I'm nine, I don't really. Honestly

575
00:42:36.719 --> 00:42:38.280
though, it sounds like it worked
really well on you, though, rage

576
00:42:38.320 --> 00:42:42.599
because your mom would come home every
day and say, I don't know why

577
00:42:42.679 --> 00:42:46.719
people do drugs and stick things in
their bum And you took those lessons to

578
00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:51.920
heart so much that to this day
you won't even touch a cup of coffee.

579
00:42:54.360 --> 00:42:55.960
I don't. Yeah, I don't. I don't want to. I

580
00:42:55.960 --> 00:42:58.960
don't want to go to Starbucks.
And the next thing you know, I

581
00:42:58.920 --> 00:43:13.760
got a light bulb in my butt. That's a VENTI I believe that is

582
00:43:13.760 --> 00:43:22.559
what they call rock bottom. If
