1:08 All right, Before we get to all that stuff, today we are going to start with a six to seventh event in Shrewsbury, which is just outside of Saint Louis, spiraled into chaos on Sunday, as police said, more than three hundred unaccompanied juveniles youths brawled outside. A battle of the brawl spilling into this Shrewsbury parking lot. That is what Rashida Glover, a mother of two, saw outside her window Sunday afternoon. We had a great time there, but I noticed something was wrong as we was leaving the facility in the angry mob outside a bunch of young teenagers and they was mad and angry.

1:49 A symbol of Sunday fun day turning into absolute chaos. Glover says she was trapped in her car after leaving Shrewsbury Sky Zones six seven day celebration. The Shrewsbury Police say the facility was not prepared for what happened next, eight fights in a matter of minutes, Glover capturing the turbulent turnout on her cell phone. And I was simply just trying to leave the facility and I got caught in the chaos. The venue reaching maximum capacity, the juveniles ranging from ten to seventeen not allowed in without someone twenty five or older. You could just hear in the crowd amongst Kirston, you can hear them saying like let me in, and that's not fair Skyzone.

2:32 It's how great is Skyzone that these kids are ruling to brawl with one another outside because they won't be let in. Is it just like one of those jump like trampoline places. Yeah, it's happened. This isn't the first time. I mean this happens. I can't remember in the last couple of months. It's even happened locally. Yeah, these places are huge draws, but a lot of them now you have to be a company by an adult. And that's why apparently well and also liability purposes, because I can't imagine just like just based on your insurance as that type of facility that you'll be allowed to have kids in there without you know their they're folks in toe.

3:16 Well, it's hard enough, you know, to tell whether a kid is over twenty one or not, you know, you want to get into whether a kid is fourteen or seventeen. So yeah, they most of the places require you are accompanied by an. Adult, an actual adult, and the utes don't seem to like that. No, no, at least I give him credit on that front, because when we were kids, we rebelled against the the you know, our elders against the olds. And I'm happy to see that some traditions are alive and well that you know, you're young and you'll still do dumb stuff, and uh, you know, parental figures be damned.

3:58 But. We didn't. You just would this crap didn't happen. Well, it's it's an unleashing type of an effect, right, So what I believe happens in these type of situations is is us when we were growing up, we went outside quite a bit, right, So we were used to going out into public, sometimes on our own, actually frequently on our own, So we didn't have this pent up whatever to unleash upon one another. With a lot of these kids, they spend so much time inside that when they are unleashed into public spaces, they just don't know how to act, respond and socially interact.

4:42 So they end up punching each other and said, you know, just hanging out. They just don't know how to act, That's what I'm saying. Saying inside, they just don't know how to and the greater problem is they just don't know. They're not used to being told. Nom that is also very accurate. Yeah, but I know a lot of I know, I know someone's going to take great offense to this, but I don't ever care. Your kids are kind of like a dog, right If you never take your dog to the dog park, your dog's not going to be socialized, and so it might show signs that it, you know, it might affect it negatively. Same thing with a kid, and that's kind of to my point. But then they partly don't know how to act because they haven't been socialized with one another. No, it's and listen, I lay this problem squarely at the feet of gen X because I hate that. I hate that, but it's you raise kids like you were raised.

5:32 We were raised with very little supervision. It was just go outside, don't hurt yourself, and don't break any laws. I mean, it's and that was it. And they've raised kids the same way, except you know, instead of going outside with friends, they got online. They have the internet, they have social media, and it has you know, brought out the worst in these kids. Speaking of bringing out the worst, this story actually gets a little bit worse that it's already think to. Social media less than twenty four hours later, saying quote, we are so sorry we sold out before we could get everyone in. We cannot control who gets dropped off at our front doors.

6:17 But it was literally just dropping them off and going about their business. Shocking details coming out Monday, as police say they had to take away a butcher knife from a twelve year old who saw the chaos on social media and then came to join it. For oh. Woh, Holy Week and all the fun they're having. Let me grab the butcher knife and run to the sky zone. Oh wow, oh look, at least they went outside. To go inside. What still. They went outside because in theory they had to go from point A of the car to point B and side the trampoline place.

7:02 You know, And you're right, because and what caused all this chaos was them being told no and you can't come inside, which left them outside and they didn't know how to act. So this is like the planets of stupidity for the young generation aligning they were told they were told no. They had Internet influence building up for all of this, pinned up energy, pinned up energy because they're pinned up inside a lot and then they weren't allowed to go inside another place that they really wanted to go. This is just horrible. Well, it's also I think it is a very much a reflection. And this is where I just am really going to sound like the old man. But look at some of the games they play, Minecraft, Roadblocks, whatever. A lot of those games you get in big groups and you attack other people.

7:54 Oh I didn't know that. Yeah, I thought those I thought those games are just you know, building stuff. Minecraft's building. But there's BVP aspects of Minecraft as well. Yes, yeah, so that's there. That's that's who's telling them how to socially interact y. That's not good. No, it's not. And what Trey, I. Mean it just in light of everything going on, let's let's let's if you keep weapons at home like parents, do a better job, lock up your knives.

8:37 On. Rashida says she's disappointed in the minors and their parents too. The event could have been real good, but it's turned bad, and they's simply because the kids wasn't being chapelone. Just be more active in your kids life. Napole tell me. The twelve year old caught with a butcher knife told them she brought it for protection. No officers were injured. And I spoke to an owner of my place to have to close early. He tells me this is a sign the community. He's a step up. Yes it is. This wasn't just something simple like that, you know, they didn't just show up and then they locked the doors, and somebody turned around and said, this is Tommy's fault. He stinks, and then the whole thing. That's not how that happened.

9:19 No, and this is the trickle down effect of the place. I saw another story on this. It was called my Place at the bar restaurant looked very nice. They had to close, you know, and. So you not only god, how insane is that you're a bar and you had to close because there's some unruly children. Well it's not three hundred and yeah, Like because they feared for their safe they had to lock the doors. And that's what I mean about how absurd it is, Like this is a place that serves alcohol to adults, which is usually where bad ideas are, but instead it was the kids outside that didn't let the adults even get warmed up.

10:05 Well, and a restaurant, and but you you want to know the trickle down effect of not watching your kids. You then have a whole staff that lost out on a day's pay because you're a shitty parent. It's interesting though, because like try, I know what you're saying, and I one hundred percent agree with you that you you raise you raise kids how you were raised, and but there's these but there's these corrections, there's these over corrections that that we've also talked about because you know, since like we don't really have kids, so the people that I know that have kids, and my neighbors that I've seen that have kids, especially around this age, I'm very observant because I'm curious about it, right, And there was even a study done.

10:48 I can't remember if I told you about this. That part of the reason why, especially jen Alpha, but also gen Z says they're usually in their screens and on their phones is because it's a place they can go where are not being monitored by their parents. So like a lot of them think that their GenEx parents are sort of helicoptering, they're over monitoring whatever it is that they're doing, and so if they can get in their screen, then the parent just leaves them alone. Now, granted, that's where bad stuff can also happen because they're online, but they say that's part of the reason they don't like to go outside is because they can't go outside and be left to their own you know, whatevers. Yeah, because they act a fool, and that's the problem.

11:29 It's kind of what you're saying is kids don't like to be parented, and that's not new, and that's not new, and the problem is there's just not enough ass whipping going on there. It is at yes, we don't keeping in mind, while keeping in mind we are all still dealing with trauma from our youth from being overwhipped. Fair enough. But I also what kept me from doing stupid stuff like this is the thought of the police calling my father and saying you need to come get him out of jail, or that the very worst, just come pick him up. We've detained him. That might have been worse. That is what kept me from doing a lot of stupid stuff when I was a kid.

12:24 Yeah. So I don't know how much of a unique perspective this is, but it's a perspective that I would like to share as as a kid who grew up with a family of teachers. Okay, at one point both my parents were teachers. My grandmother was a lifelong teacher, my aunt was a teacher. Other people in the family teachers, And there was a genuine shift at some point that they all noticed because as parents themselves, they were very. Much hold the kid accountable. Let the school dole out punishment as well, will dole out punishment at home as well. But then there was a shift among parents at some point where when the school, whether it was a principal or a teacher, would tell a parent, hey, we have this issue with your kid.

13:15 It used to be a joint thing to deal with the problem. There was a shift when they would address an issue with a parent, the parent would defend the kid at all costs and say, it's not the kid's fault, it's your fault. You're supposed to be doing this, this is your failure. And the accountability went off the cliff somehow, and there was an actual shift in it, and they would complain about it every time they got together about how parents just don't listen to the schools anymore. They just defend the kids. I don't know if it's out of defensiveness, because if you say to a parent, Hey, your kids. Being unruly or you know whatever.

13:56 The parent gets dismissed because they see that as a failure on them, so they're acting out. I don't know, but from growing up inside a family of teachers, there's a very hard shift in parents defending their kids as opposed to trying to hold their kids accountable with the schools. Oh, I think there was very much a mentality shift of it's the school's job to raise the kids, right, Yeah, yeah, And you would have thought, and this is something I am sadly uniquely familiar with given my situation at the time, you would have thought COVID and homeschooling really taught all these parents an effing lesson. You'd think you would have thought, because you know, there's an entire generation that lost and it doesn't sound in the big picture, it doesn't sound like a lot, but it really is a year of education in some places even more than that.

14:57 Yeah, but I thought about that the other day, where it's like, because a year year and a half, you know for some and yeah, in some places it might have been a little bit longer, but for the most part in the United States, you know about a year, like was it really that catastrophic. And I guess so. Yes, because for a lot of I mean at the time, I you know, my ex's kids, they when I said they lost a year, one of them was, you know, they were still learning basic math that you learn in second and third grade in fourth and fifth grade, and and and catching up reading skill. I mean, that's a whole nother problem because to them, for gen Z, I'm sorry, Jen, Alpha books are even are are just foreign? Yeah, and they don't get homework. That it's I mean, the education system has definitely capitulated to parents, and I mean it was shocking that even going into like sixth grade, no homework.

16:15 I'm trying to remember the first grade that I remember starting to get homework. I want to say it was third grade. It was first grade for me, was it? Yeah? And there was there there See it started to shift a little bit with me, I remember, because in the beginning it was this is stuff we're doing in class, and then this is stuff that you will be doing at home. And I agree with assigning them things to do specifically at home. You don't need to do that. If you can't get through whatever you need to do during class hours, you know, you don't need to. You don't need to give them extra. Now, if you have an assignment that's in school and they give you overnight to do it in class and then take it home and do it, then that's fine. And that started shifting about halfway through when I was in school, where it's like whatever was left over the assignment, you take that home, you finish it, and you bring it back.

17:16 Yeah. Yeah, I mean obviously, like Trey, like you have more knowledge on this than the rest of us in here right now because you've been around kids in school recently. So yeah, I'm not even sure how the homework thing works these days, how accountability is really working in schools versus parents, you know, defending their kids or whatever. But yeah, I mean the COVID thing, it's almost like like, as an adult, I think one year shouldn't be that big of a deal. We're talking about COVID and the effect it had on kids, but they're not adults. So a year to me and a year to you guys is very different than a year to a twelve year old or a fifteen year old. It's kind of like dog years, right, So a year for a kid like multiple years for us as adults.

18:02 It's still the formative years. It's developmental. Yeah yeah, and that's true to a ten year old, one year is ten percent of their life. Yeah, but it's and their brains aren't anywhere near the sizes of ours. Well, but it really is. It's laying the foundation for everything, and you just took a big chunk out of it. And the no homework thing is just I mean, it's just so I remember at one point, you know, because there were times like in high school where you'd have hours of homework and there was the beginnings of a pushback back then of hey, you're not giving the kids any time to have any do anything else or between this and sports, and you know, there needs to be more of a balance, and it shifted too far the other way. So and then you know, instead of you now now the parents, you know, have their kids in these stupid ass private sports where they're paying thousands of dollars because they think, you know, that's the only way their kid's gonna make it pro.

19:08 Yeah right, yeah, yeah, you are right. But and yeah, I will say this, I wonder what the conversation was like with that twelve year old who brought the knife this guy's zone. Like did the parents say, all right, look, Tiffany, I'm really proud of you for going outside, but we need to talk about the fact that you brought a knife. To a bounce house. You brought a knife anywhere, Okay, sure, but I mean like to a place where you bring the Yeah. At twelve at the These are for cooking. These are not for stabbing. I don't care. I don't care what you've seen with me and mom.

19:54 You don't need a knife if you think here here, this is I think the lesson that we have really lost out on, Tiffany. If there is a place you're thinking about going that you think you need a knife, don't go. That's good. That's really good parenting advice. Yeah. Yeah, hey eighties movie slow clap. Yeah, right there, right in the hallway, that's right there, Trey. Yeah, I'm proud of us. We did some good work here. Lucas, Yes, I'm Lucas, you're Charlie Sheen and Jerry's obviously Kerrie Green.

It's not just about shingles. Absolutely, Dan. A lot of homeowners underestimate the amount of attic heat build up that their home has, affects their AC system, affects their roof condition long term, affects just overall their home.

21:35 And so when we come out we make that assessment with the homeowner, we try to educate them, make sure they have the proper ventilation. There is a calculation of this. We walk them around if they're interested in going around, we show them what their intakes look like, what their exhaust system looks like, and try to make the best fit for their home. So that's a very common thing that we do, and it should be done every time you have construction done at your property. You need to be educated on what's happening and why, and if.

Back inside the Treehouse now, I'm Daniel Malley along with Trey Turnholm and Jerry Caledwell as I stalled just a little bit to get our birthdays pulled up. All the talk about going outside, I can segue that into us going outside as children and one of my favorite movies as a kid, and I think probably.

23:23 Top five baseball movie. The Sandlot. The Sandlot appears to be coming back. And what I mean is this. Hang on. Patrick Renna to reunite with the Sandlot cast on a new comedy called Dugout Dads. Patrick Renn is the one that played the catcher with the Freckles in The Sandlot. Patrick Renna is bringing the gang back together. He and many of the original cast members from The Sandlot are re teaming on a new comedy series from Renna and Kyle Howard, to be produced through their production company Hambino Media.

24:08 That's a great name. The series marks the first official reunion of the original cast since the release of the nineteen ninety three Coming of Age sports film more than three decades ago. Doug Ot Dads will star Patrick Renna, with appearances across the season from Tom Geary, Chauncey, Lea Pardi, Marty Yorke, Brandon, Quintin Adams, Victor Di Matilla, Shane of Adzinski, Grant Gelt, and Will Hornet basically the entire infield from The sand Lot, and Danielle Fischel from Boy Meets World Fame, also known as Tapanga, will star as Renna's wife in the series. I need to go back and watch that movie. I just don't really remember it.

24:51 I don't either. That's one of those movies tray where our age gap may play a factor. Yeah, because see for the first time as a kid, you know, back in ninety three, I was in it. I mean I was see ninety three, I would have been thirteen. So these kids were in the movie just a little like they were. I was in that age range they were in, like I think in their age ranges, they were like ten to fourteen, somewhere in there on the sand lot. So I was right in the middle of that. And I feel like I knew kids that I played baseball with from the movie. But at that point, you would have been like senior and no. I was a so high school college sophomore in college.

25:32 In ninety three. Yeah. Yeah, I had just graduated high school that summer. Yeah, So I'm not sure if this movie missed you just a little bit, but yeah, to me, it's it's definitely worth a rewatch. I mean, it's it's such a it's such a feel good film. It's got so many great moments. It's got James Earl Jones out of nowhere. That was a cameo no one expected. When that happened, You're like, oh crap, the dog that was you know, terrifying that just ended up being a mastiff, But I mean, to be fair, that's the same dog that was Kujo. But yeah, that I'd love that movie, especially as a baseball kid. I'm always wary about reboots or adding on to storylines, but to me, this is the top Gun Maverick effect is Hollywood just needs one good successful example to keep doing the thing that they were already trying to do that had failed so many times before.

26:33 Oh. I think this is also a social media effect because I know Patrick Renna has developed a huge following on social media, okay, and some of the stuff he does is funny, and a lot of it is hinting back at The Sandlot, But there is a huge nostalgia for that movie, So I mean, I can't blame him. No, not, And I appreciate the extension of the story to be like, Okay, now we're dads, and they're probably going to have their kids, and they're probably going to be dealing with some of the stuff that we talk about today and that we talked about in our first segment, which is maybe they're challenging their kids to go outside and go to the sand Lot because they're all just faces and screens and stuff. The only reason I'm a little wary about it is because they tried this with a Christmas story where it's Ralphie becomes an adult and then he's trying to save Christmas for his family kind of thing, and it was a major flop.

27:35 It wasn't good. But I will stand on I stand on this hill. The original sucked. I know you think that. Like, you can't build on a bad foundation. It's just sure you can. Yeah we have like, yeah we have ten fast and the Furious is eleven technically, I mean, yeah, you're not wrong. But Jason Morhes went to Space and it's one of my favorites. I mean, Hollywood loves to double down on a bad premise. I think a Christmas Story just for some reason, just there's a nostalgia, like there's a couple of things that make people think, oh, I love that movie, but it's really just not a good movie.

28:23 And I don't know. I would be curious to see a national poll on that to see what the percentage is on people that like a Christmas story or sort of like how they do like the political polls, do you like, do you do you strongly agree somewhat agree, neutral, somewhat disagree, strongly disagree with the statement A Christmas Story is a great movie and then you know, you figure it out from there. But I mean, it was the first movie. I don't think there's ever been a movie before it that got played. For twenty four hours in a row. I don't think any movie had ever had that accoly until A Christmas Story. Oh, It's a Wonderful Life.

29:04 Did they do that with It's a Wonderful Life? Okay? Man? I remember, well A Christmas Story was better like received, I guess, as opposed to its wonderful life. And that makes it partly because you know, It's a Wonderful Life was old and black and white. I was saying, this story was in color, Congratua. Color and there's a kid sticking his tongue to a pull. It's great. But then now they do it with other movies too, you know, like Yelf and stuff they do like the four hour deal. Speaking of old movies, especially eighties movies and baseball, I have my favorites. Like they're they're let's have this talk. I'm in it. Field of dreams mm hmm, bull durham mm hmm.

29:50 Major League, Yeah, leg yeah. And they all they all hit on different buttons. Mm hmm. You know feel the dream still this day. I I have never watched that movie once and not cried. Here's the outlier for me. And I don't know. And I think maybe I was just too young for and the natural. I'll go thank you eight men out. Ooh, the Black Sox Scandal movie. I think I was just too young for to really uh grasp that. I just I remember it being very dark and and and maybe I need to go back and watch it. But I was looking recently, I saw a list of like, you know, one of a movie list, and they put that as one of the great movies, and I just I don't. I don't feel that way about it.

30:51 I remember watching it. I remember John Q. Sax in it, and that's yeah. It's it's got a hell of a cast, there's no doubt about that. But because it was, it was less about it. Was more about the courtroom, the proceedings and the story around the Black Sox scandal. I believe it was nineteen nineteen. World Series Chicago White Sox were accused of, you know, throwing games. I mean, that's shoeless. Joe and all that isn't it? Yeah, and they got they had dubbed The Black Socks negative because of the accusations of of you know, throwing games to you know, for betting and stuff. I think because that movie was so much about the entire story and less about the baseball aspect of it, so there wasn't as much like baseball action in the way they were used to like a baseball movie.

31:42 Maybe that's why we. Weren't as in it, because I mean it was it was basically a courtroom illegal proceeding with the backdrop of baseball. And also just at the time it came out, because that mid eighties, I want to. Say, uh yeah, I would say eighty seven, eighty eight somewhere in there. Eighty eight, but I was just too young and to really comprehend, you know. I mean, it's very relevant now betting, betting in sports. We'll bet, except today's version would be would be starting with the NBA, starting in Cuba.

32:25 Well at that too yet, But yeah, I just I don't. I don't hold it up there in the same regard as I do the other ones. I don't either, and I don't think I don't think most people would that's not a movie that typically comes up in conversations with me that that's more a favorite baseball movies and are. Like something that gets critical acclaimed. But I don't. I don't even remember it being that successful. I don't think so. Yeah, I will say this, and I don't know if this is necessarily a hot take. But what ever, if you are doing a ranking of the best baseball movies of all time and your list does not include Major League, then you did not play ball.

33:13 That's it. I'd love to fight you on that one. But no, I mean, but you know major League is on your list. Yeah, no, it's you know, like I said, it's it's it and Bulderham. Uh, all right, But the funny thing with Buldurham is Buldurham. I even as an adult, you know, it's something. It hit one way when I when it came out as I was a teenager, but then as adult it hits in different ways and it's still really funny. Yeah, it's it really is one of those movies that you could watch it as a kid. There are some themes that may not be appropriate, like the little you know, the ratings say, uh, but still the baseball stuff was really fun and it was good.

33:58 It was funny. But then yeah, as an adult you see the relationship aspect of it, You're like, god, this is it's such a good movie. Yeah, all right, well our there's our baseball talk for the day. Let's do some birthdays. Today is Thursday, June eleventh, twenty twenty six. Birthdays today, Star the Star of House. What you gotta give you time to hit the hit your sounder? My band the Star of House in one half of the comedy duo Fry and Laurie. Hugh Laurie is sixty seven today. Right before we started today's show, I saw a brief headline. I didn't get a chance to click on it, but Hugh Laurie was apologizing for a drunken outburst at someone who said something negative about House. I don't even know if I had that whole headline correctly, but you know what, I'm one of those guys that there are some people that, even though I don't know them personally, if they if they do something, I'm assuming they had a good reason for it and will support it.

35:03 To me, Hugh Lori is one of those people. Yeah, that's that's That was a really good show. I've actually gone back and started watching some of those very solid. I actually never watched the whole series. I watched like a couple episodes here and there. I never, for whatever reason, ever pulled me in that way. I always enjoyed when I did watch some of it. I but yeah, I think I Hugh Laurie is awesome. Speaking of awesome, also celebrating a birthday today, Peter Dinklige, the Little Actor, is fifty seven Emmy winning actor, best known as Tyry and Lanister on Game of Thrones. He was Simon something or another in Elf. Now, Trey, I know, Trey, I know you're not a fan of Elf, and I know you can't stand Will Ferrell, but I would think at the very least you would appreciate that scene when he gets his ass kicked by Peter Dinklage.

36:00 Yes, and it's not that I'm not a fan of Will Ferrell. At that point of Elf, Will Ferrell had I love Will Ferrell. Old School is to me, Great Will Ferrell, Saturday Night Live, Great Will Ferrell. Will Ferrell as even as the lead on a great ensemble cast, fantastic All Will Ferrell as an Elf wears on me. I just, I can, I just I didn't think Elf was funny. I thought it was predictable. I thought it was it was a movie that capitalized on his stardom at the time. But it's like it's like Steve Carrell.

36:44 I like Steve Carrell as part of an ensemble cast, Like I think forty year Old Virgin another terrible movie. So with with now you've you've got that set right your thoughts on Will Ferrell? How do you feel about Talladega Knights. I love Talladega Knights, got it okay? But and with him so again ensemble cast him with is it John c Riley? Yeah? Who magic duo? Same with step Brothers, Yes. We brothers. Talladega Knights to me is better than Stepbrothers. But again Will Ferrell with even just a duo? But he and John c Riley magic? Yeah?

37:31 Uh so. Peter Danklin's fifty seven Joshua Jackson, best known as Pacy from Dawson's Creek, At least to me, he is forty eight today. Now there there's this This is that is where our age gap shows. I've never watched dawson Creek. Don't have a fing. Clue, honestly, Trey. I'd have questions for you if you had, I. Know, I believe that was Katie Holmes and H. Vanderby Vanderbet, James Vanderbet, Katie Holmes, Joshua Jackson, and Williams Kelly Williams, Heath Ledger's widow. I'm brain fighting on her name the Blonde. So that was that was the main forecast on that show. And to be honest with you, I didn't really watch that show either, sure, I swear.

38:19 I didn't, not very much. I believe you. All right. Look, I'd rather my mom walk in on me watching porn than Dawson's. Creek faough all right, Happy birthday, josh Jackson.

39:16 You're in the Treehouse. Visit us online at Treehouse on Air dot com. Hit it. Yeah, all right here we are back inside the Treehouse now, Dan, Trey and Jerry. Two things to get to before we close up the Treehouse for the week. On the regular episodes. Coming up, the epic taco bell shutdown to end the show. But first, I had no idea you could breed these Australian officials say they've made a record breaking and pretty creepy seizure. Authorities in New South Wales have confiscated more than one hundred thousand live exotic cockroaches from a commercial breeder, the largest bust of illegal invertebrates in Australia's history.

40:12 I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that I think Australia is the only country on the planet that probably tracks that. Illegal invertebrates. Okay, the hall valued at one hundred and forty thousand dollars of cockroaches included Dubia roaches. I have never even heard of those. I don't know if they meant to say Dubai, but it's a little d Dubia. Never heard of it. And Madagascar hissing cockroaches. Those I've absolutely heard of. These are species that are banned in Australia.

40:53 Why for food, like I for food for other like reptiles stuff. So officials say the insects are often bred as food for pet reptiles, but they can pose serious risks if released. So yeah, I guess, I guess it's mainly for food for pet reptiles. But I wouldn't think you need the exotic kind for that, right, You Just any roach would work. I mean, those are larger varieties, so maybe because they're larger that means they're easier for the breeders. To handle and maintain. I don't know. I mean snakes seemed like mice too, so.

41:37 But yeah, these roaches can pose serious risks if released, including spreading disease and harming native wildlife and agriculture. Because of those risks, it's illegal to import, breed or sell them in Australia. Look, I know people are dog breeders, and we kind of frown on that here a little bit because we prefer adopt, don't shop. But look, I mean there's place for it. There's reasons people have for breeding certain for certain animals. But like, there's a there's a certain cachet, right that comes with I'm a horse breeder, you know, like for race horses and stuff. I don't think you get that same clout when you say I'm a I'm a roach breeder.

42:18 No, and I don't. I don't have any problem with mom and pop who have a couple of dogs that they breed and and sell the puppies. It's the puppy mills that, right, are the bastards. Uh. But yeah, how how do you get started in the cockroach business? I assume it's got to be uh passed down from generation to generation. I mean, I'm talking about dreading to go to work. Oh god, I mean, look at it this way. We were just talking about the nineties and James Vanderbeek right in that movie. He's the quarterback, right, and his ad wants him to play football, and he's like, I don't want your life. He wants to go to Brown, he wants to go to Ivy League school. Now imagine how different that movie would have been. He's like, I don't want to be a football player. I want to be a roach breeder.

43:12 Is that Varsity Blues? Yeah? Okay, yeah, yeah, definitely not Dawson's Creek. Yeah, just you know, but yeah, I mean that's not an occupation where you break from the family to go do like if your families it's lawyers. Yes, it might be. A real thing. And then you got one hundred and forty thousand dollars worth of cockroaches in Australia. I'm going to assume you're part of the cockroach mafia. You're the worst godfather ever. Absolutely, you're gonna hate me for this, but I have to say it.

43:52 They really hate raids. Yeah, I said, you're gonna hate me for it. It's Trey Is face planted on his microphone. I'm with you. What's happened to you? Dan Raid? See you're laughing now. Oh. Anyways, Authorities say the case highlights a growing black market for exotic insects, and their warning pet owners and breeders that enforcement is ramping up the seas to cockroaches will be euthanized by officials.

44:37 Ah, so lots of shoes raid. All right, let's get to this. So we are not going to end the week on a bad raid joke that actually wasn't that bad, but bad. Uh, let's go to the epic Taco Bell shutdown a man and fla. Actually, I haven't set up for this. Hang on, where did I put it? Here we go a bizarre scene. A bizarre scene out of Florida, Taco Bell is going viral. Look, I don't intentionally find Florida man stories. They just find me. Okay, you just can't ignore some of them. As much as I try not to have a Florida man story in every episode, sometimes it just has to happen.

45:28 Right, Hey, if you're trying to find a pot of gold, you're gonna go to the end of the rainbow. You're gonna find stupid. You're gonna go to Florida. Amen, brother, Yeah, So at a bizarre scene out of Florida, Taco Bell has gone viral. A shirtless man wearing a kilt got into a heated art Just that sentence enough. A shirtless man wearing a kilt in Florida at a Taco Bell. Those are all un like. This is like mad libs in Florida. Right, a Florida man and then the blanks come up at a Taco Bell shirtless wearing a kilt? All right, he got into a heated.

46:09 Argument while waiting in line after another customer insulted him and called him a meth head, to which he responded, did you catch all that? Mm hmm. All right, So, so he's upset about something at Taco Bell and some other customers say you're acting like a meth head, to which he responded, he does say that to a pair of black people. By the way, I'm motherfucker down. I'm going to play this all in it's entirely I'm going to play this in its entirety for your enjoyment.

46:53 Here when she says I think you're a meth. Heads, I'm going there shutting the whole motherfucker down. So he turns, walks out the front door, slams it, and goes. Around the back of the building walking away. And then. He shut that motherfucker down. Lights off. Well, he he delivered.

47:40 Yeah, that's that's actually pretty amazing. And you know, as a as a general rule, mm hmm, if a man is ballsy and to wear a kilt in public and it's not like, you know, some sort of festival, not one, not one to be trifled with. No, no, let's just take him at his word. Whatever he said. All that being said, while he did go outside and shut that mffort down. I don't think you need to be a licensed electrician to just, you know, shut the power off of an entire place. You just need to know where the lever is or just know which chords to cut. But it certainly helps if you are. If I'm not getting if I'm not getting my crunch Trap Supreme, then nobody is funk.

48:43 He powered that bitch down like the. Death Star, and it looked like there was a hurricane happening outside, So that's like. Yeah, it was killed Florida Hurricane. Taco Bell. There you go and no power. You all enjoy that? Yeah, a lot of it. Dan, to your point, it depends how he shut the power down. If he did just you know, find the main switch and turn it off, yeah that's not a big deal. But he may have done something far more, you know, devious that you know no one. No one's getting their Mexican pizza for a good forty eight hours. But I need my Baja Blast. Got a generator.

49:25 I'll just go to the Taco Bell two miles away. Yeah, hopefully he hasn't beat me there. Oh God, all right, thanks for hanging out with us all week. Inside the Treehouse.
