Is she a gold digger, entitled…or is her boyfriend just being chivalrous?

Today on The Treehouse Show, we dive into a Reddit relationship debate about a guy who always pays for his girlfriend. His friend wants to know why she never seems to pick up the check or buy anything. Is she taking advantage of him? Is he spoiling her? Or is this just old-school chivalry?

Then we meet a couple on the COMPLETE opposite end of the relationship spectrum. This guy has been living off his girlfriend for THREE YEARS, and in all that time, he's bought her exactly one earring. Not earrings. AN earring. Somehow, that's not even the weirdest relationship story we've discussed.

Celebrity birthdays send us down another rabbit hole: actors who milk one role for their entire career. From Chris Hemsworth and Ellen Pompeo to William Shatner, when an actor becomes permanently associated with one character, were they typecast—or did they hit the career jackpot?

Plus, Trey saw the new Spider-Man movie, so he and Dan break down what they liked, what they didn't, and where it fits in the Spider-Man universe.

Finally, we close today's show on a much more personal note. The Treehouse family lost one of its own, Robert Powell, and we take some time to remember him and say goodbye.

Relationships, gold diggers, one lonely earring, Spider-Man, typecasting and a heartfelt farewell—all on today's Treehouse Show.

17
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:15.959
let's jump in now with this to start, am I.

18
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:19.719
Sorry? I had the wrong thing.

19
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:22.840
A guy goes online he needs some relationship advice and

20
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:26.719
he says, my girlfriend expects me to pay for basically everything.

21
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:29.920
And I only realized how weird it was after my

22
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:37.519
friend pointed it out. Oh, buddy, he's a twenty six

23
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:40.120
year old guy. His girlfriend is twenty four, and he says,

24
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:43.120
my girlfriend expects me to pay for everything. And I

25
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:47.000
only realized how weird it was after my friend pointed

26
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:47.359
it out.

27
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:48.120
Now, when I went to.

28
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:50.680
Click on this to read the whole context of the

29
00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:54.239
story after the headline, it was removed for some reason.

30
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:56.439
I don't know, if by a moderator, deleted by the

31
00:01:56.480 --> 00:02:00.120
original poster. I don't know, Trey, am I missing anything

32
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:02.680
that is not currently in the headline, because honestly, I

33
00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:05.200
have enough to go on just based on the headline.

34
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:09.080
So there are some There is some nuance in here,

35
00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:11.919
and probably the first one is that one of the

36
00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:17.599
examples he gives is they were out shopping and she

37
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:23.039
said she found a perfume she really liked, but she goes, oh,

38
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.639
I can't afford that, and he went and bought it

39
00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:33.319
for anyways, Hey, that's on you, bubba yep. And now

40
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:36.560
he goes through some of the things of yeah, we

41
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.879
ordered dinner, I always pay, and she typically orders something

42
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:40.960
more expensive.

43
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:42.759
Okay, okay.

44
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:48.439
They were going on a holiday and he said he

45
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:50.680
booked a room and she said, well, what about this room.

46
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.360
It's a lot nicer, and obviously it was more expensive.

47
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:56.840
She wanted to stay at a nicer hotel. Now, that

48
00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:00.919
does not give any context as to because the dollar

49
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:04.199
in this story wherever they were, it's obviously overseas because

50
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:07.560
they used word petrol. And but he was throwing out

51
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:13.000
numbers about the hotel was like fourteen K. And but

52
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.000
she has a job and she makes decent money at

53
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.520
fifty five K. Obviously we're not talking about dollars, because

54
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:20.000
if you're making fifty five a month, you can afford

55
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:20.759
whatever the hell you want.

56
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:22.680
Yeah, yet, no kidding.

57
00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:31.159
And but just it seems sounded like typical stuff, especially

58
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.840
the fact that we're older. When we were dating, you know,

59
00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:39.599
in my twenties and stuff, men were in generally in

60
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.080
general expected to pay for everything. That's just the way

61
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:42.520
it was.

62
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:44.360
That was how we were raised.

63
00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:48.759
Yeah, and it's listen. One of the things that was

64
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:52.599
so wonderful with Brandy was I paid for a lot

65
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.479
of stuff, but she would go out and we'd be

66
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:58.400
out somewhere doing something. She's like, I got this, You've

67
00:03:58.479 --> 00:04:03.240
done enough, which was very cool. I've had relationships that

68
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:03.919
were not like that.

69
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:09.280
I think being in our age bracket. I think we

70
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:13.360
have enough experience out there and because of our age

71
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:17.720
where we've experienced both where there's sort of this expectation

72
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:21.680
and it's not always her fault because if she's older

73
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:23.680
and closer to the age, like we are, even a

74
00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:28.720
little bit older than us, then we were raised and

75
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:32.720
told you pay, and they were basically told the same thing.

76
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:35.639
It's the guy's thing to pay, right, So that's just

77
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:37.920
kind of nature versus that's what they were told.

78
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:38.600
So that's what they do.

79
00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:42.399
Younger though, it very much is, and I think there's

80
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:45.360
also a level of maturity that comes into play, even

81
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:51.839
if it's early on it's expected that he pay. Sometimes

82
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:54.519
a good mature woman will be like, you know what,

83
00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:58.120
I think it's time I start paying for some stuff

84
00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:01.879
as well. Right on the younger side of things, it's

85
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:05.879
definitely more common to have that sort of initiative to say,

86
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:08.680
let me pay for this, so you're not paying for everything.

87
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:12.519
Or we'll split. Well, they split a lot of things, yeah,

88
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:16.720
which that's I mean. I don't even know if they

89
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:19.000
use the term going Dutch anymore, but that that was

90
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:23.839
something in my twenties and thirties and long before that,

91
00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:25.920
if you were going Dutch that minute, you know, each

92
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:27.519
person paid for themselves.

93
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:30.879
Which also when you and I were growing up. If

94
00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:33.959
she brought that up, then that all automatically means this

95
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:35.040
is no longer a date.

96
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:38.759
Yeah, no, you're just friends at that point.

97
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:40.319
Yeah, that's that.

98
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:42.439
That was like the gen X version of being friend

99
00:05:42.519 --> 00:05:45.279
zoned without being told you're now in the friend zone.

100
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:48.199
It's like, I'll pay for this, Like, oh man, listen,

101
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:51.040
I had one relationship now that this is twenty years ago,

102
00:05:51.519 --> 00:05:59.199
and at the time we were we had an arrangement

103
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:03.160
and but I was for the most part staying with her. Okay,

104
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:07.800
mm hmm. And she hit me one day, She's like,

105
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:09.879
you don't pay, you know, pay for rent or anything else.

106
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:14.079
I pay for everything. Really, I go, I'll tell you

107
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:22.720
what I'll start. I'm more than happy to start paying rent,

108
00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:26.240
m but you need to start splitting the bills as

109
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:31.319
far as what we food and going out. And I

110
00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:36.519
promise you, and I was right. I go, you're coming

111
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:38.759
out ahead. As we things sit right now, it's far

112
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:40.399
cheaper on you. I go. But if you want to

113
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:45.040
start splitting everything, and I mean all going out, drinks, dinner,

114
00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:50.360
all of it. I'm game one month.

115
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:54.560
I wouldn't love to take I would love to take

116
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:55.720
part in this experiment.

117
00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:57.879
I'm sorry.

118
00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:01.560
Yeah, what near.

119
00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:06.240
As bad as you thought? M But now this is

120
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:09.360
one of those things. And he goes, well, you know,

121
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:13.199
she occasionally pays for coffee or whatever. Listen, if you don't,

122
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:18.639
if you don't say anything, and especially if she says

123
00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:21.160
something like, oh that's too expensive, I can't afford it,

124
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:23.839
and you buy it for anyways, that's on you, man.

125
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:28.920
Yeah, on occasion. And look, look, especially early on in

126
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:33.040
a relationship, these are these things the groundwork gets laid

127
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:38.480
for how how the relationship is going to run, how

128
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:43.279
it's going to operate. Right, So, if you are constantly

129
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:45.920
paying for stuff at the beginning of a relationship, it's

130
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.560
going to be difficult to change that down the line.

131
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:52.720
It's going to be nearly impossible for you to change

132
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:56.120
it on your own down the line. In order for

133
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:58.680
something like that to change, it's it's got to be

134
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:02.800
it's got to be the other side side idea. And

135
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.079
so that's why early on you've got to kind of

136
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:10.439
set some of these unspoken boundaries and ground rules. It's like, Okay,

137
00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:15.480
I'm not going to pay for everything, and it's it's

138
00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:17.160
like you have to you have to do it very

139
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:19.639
delicately because you don't want to, you know, because early

140
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:21.199
on in a relationship is and all the good stuff

141
00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.319
is happening, right, everything's happy. You probably don't have any

142
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:27.240
disagreements your sex all the time. I mean, it's just

143
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:32.240
everything's fantastic. So bringing up something, you're like, Okay, I

144
00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:35.840
noticed this. If I don't say something or do something

145
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.039
about this now, then this could become a problem down

146
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:41.080
the line. So you want to do it delicately because

147
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:44.559
you don't want to ruin the honeymoon phase.

148
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:47.360
Right. It's tough, man.

149
00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:50.240
Relationships are hard, they are.

150
00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:56.120
But I do think in this day and age, I

151
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:59.519
still feel like unless she has just a she makes

152
00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:02.360
a lot more. Uh, typically guys are going to pay

153
00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:04.759
for more stuff. But I think that's also I think

154
00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:08.679
that's the sign of a good, good mate, good person

155
00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:12.960
you really want to maybe pursue something more serious with.

156
00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:17.720
Is if she says every now and then, hey, And

157
00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:19.960
it's also it's kind of a gratitude of Hey, you

158
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:21.799
do a lot. Let me get this one.

159
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.840
I have noticed what you do. I acknowledge it. And

160
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:30.159
I appreciate it. And I'm going and I'm now going to,

161
00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:32.480
you know, show you a little bit a gesture by

162
00:09:32.600 --> 00:09:36.120
paying for this or paying for that. And even then

163
00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:37.519
we may put up a little bit of a fight,

164
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:39.440
but deep down we would love for you to pay

165
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:40.320
for stuff on occasion.

166
00:09:40.519 --> 00:09:46.480
Yeah, it's it's it makes it all worthwhile. If gratitude,

167
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:50.279
it's amazing. Gratitude goes such a long way, you know.

168
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:53.799
And even if you're just faking it, just say.

169
00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:55.919
It doesn't matter, just just do it. Just selling.

170
00:09:57.399 --> 00:09:57.440
You.

171
00:09:57.679 --> 00:10:01.919
You will see the difference. It doesn't take much. It

172
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:03.159
really doesn't.

173
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:04.559
Pick up the tab, you greedy bitch.

174
00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:11.840
That's the deep, deep, grimlin side of us coming out.

175
00:10:12.759 --> 00:10:14.639
We all got him. He's down there.

176
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:19.240
He doesn't show his head very often, but he's in there.

177
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.879
And like I said, I said, you know, relationships are hard.

178
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:29.759
But the older I've gotten, the more mature I've gotten Slash.

179
00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:32.360
When you get older, you just stop giving a flying

180
00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:35.159
f about certain things, right. That's one of the beautiful

181
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:38.759
things about getting older is you stop caring about certain things.

182
00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:42.559
You start caring about someone's reaction or what people think

183
00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:43.639
about certain things.

184
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:44.039
Right.

185
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:50.279
So I sort of came to terms with this a

186
00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:53.000
long time ago, where it's like you play the game

187
00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:55.519
of oh, I should wait two days before I call

188
00:10:55.960 --> 00:10:58.559
or I have to do this, I'm supposed to do that.

189
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:02.519
You know what, screw it. If you like her, call her,

190
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:05.440
if you want to do this, do it. Say you

191
00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:07.799
want to do it, and if she doesn't, then she's

192
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:12.000
not your person. And flip and flip that script as well.

193
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.519
If you really like him, don't play that game. Don't say, well,

194
00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:19.399
I've got a date with somebody else. Don't play those

195
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:22.000
games because if you do, you're kind of setting yourself

196
00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:25.080
up for failure and you're just testing a relationship unnecessarily.

197
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:30.480
Just do what you want, do what feels right, and

198
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:32.559
if that person is not on the same page, that

199
00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:33.879
is not your person.

200
00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:37.200
Unless that feeling is ghosting the person and never telling

201
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:40.600
them why. Yeah, you're sound advice.

202
00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:42.840
Dan, Okay, Yeah, there are exceptions. This is not a

203
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:46.720
this is not an across the board type of thing.

204
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:53.200
Please please have the wisdom to understand where there should

205
00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:55.240
be exceptions to the rule. Right.

206
00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:59.639
Uh, But that that's been That was my approach to

207
00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:02.679
log That started to be my approach a long time ago,

208
00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:05.720
and it made everything a lot simpler. And it's hard.

209
00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:08.440
It's a hard thing to change.

210
00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:11.279
I've never played the game of oh I'm gonna wait,

211
00:12:12.000 --> 00:12:14.039
you know, I need to wait three days or whatever.

212
00:12:14.759 --> 00:12:16.840
If I really like someone, I was always gonna be like, hey,

213
00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:18.559
I had a great time, let's do it again.

214
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:23.279
And it's liberating, isn't it, Because then you're not sweating

215
00:12:23.320 --> 00:12:25.799
over these details. You're not You're not you're not fixated

216
00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:28.559
on oh my god, Do I do I say something now?

217
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:30.679
Or is it too soon? Do I call? Or do

218
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:31.120
I text?

219
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:33.000
Especially now with technology, do I email?

220
00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:36.120
Do I snap? Whatever that is? You know, there's all

221
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:36.919
these things.

222
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:40.039
They hear it do not email? Email is the most

223
00:12:40.039 --> 00:12:46.519
impersonal thing. That was actually one of the colder moments

224
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:50.120
with Brandy is you know I had been trying, like again,

225
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:53.759
had no idea what was going on, and uh, she

226
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:55.559
didn't respond to a text, phone call, anything. I got

227
00:12:55.600 --> 00:13:00.480
an email from her, just Trey blah blah blah blah

228
00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:07.639
blah blah blah blah blah. Brandy. It's like, Wow, Yeah,

229
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:09.960
that's that's how you do it. Consult That's how you

230
00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:14.279
conduct a business transaction, not a relationship. Uh.

231
00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:16.799
And and then did you go on LinkedIn and post

232
00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:22.120
her resume with a little science says open to work.

233
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:27.600
You're right, yeah, the email thing is is pretty cold.

234
00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:30.480
But then again, if if that, if if email is

235
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:33.480
your love language, and you know, maybe, then then fine.

236
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:34.600
If that's your deal.

237
00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:40.240
Man, your love language, you're you're going to be dating, chat, GPT.

238
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:45.480
You know what to each to each their own. It's yeah,

239
00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:47.639
maybe it's safer for everybody that way.

240
00:13:49.879 --> 00:13:53.960
I mean, it's just whatever you're going to put an email,

241
00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:54.840
you can put in a text.

242
00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:56.120
That's true.

243
00:13:57.559 --> 00:14:04.399
That's true, but it doesn't feel as cold. It isn't

244
00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:07.559
It isn't sent with as much ice hanging from it.

245
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:13.279
You know, email unless you just if you want to

246
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:18.240
tell the person to get lost or or just absolutely

247
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:22.799
drive the point home that uh you no longer give

248
00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:29.519
a fuck mm hmm. Email. Emails your your vehicle of choice.

249
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.600
But if you're not, if you want to display any warmth,

250
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:36.200
any feeling, any emotion, do not email.

251
00:14:38.399 --> 00:14:40.480
And if you do email and you really want to

252
00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:43.639
drive the stake through the heart of the recipient, see

253
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:44.519
see your X on it.

254
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.480
Yeah.

255
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:50.799
Now it's interesting because as far as all this, who's

256
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:53.759
supposed to pay for what in relationship, everyone gets raised

257
00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:55.960
a little bit differently, but there's still some you know,

258
00:14:56.039 --> 00:15:00.720
social norms that have changed over the years. Like you know,

259
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:05.840
splitting things is more and more common these days sometimes,

260
00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:10.039
so like in this case, this guy had no idea

261
00:15:10.840 --> 00:15:13.679
that it was weird for him to be paying for

262
00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:17.080
everything and for his girlfriend not to be paying for

263
00:15:17.159 --> 00:15:19.840
really anything, so much so that it was this buddy

264
00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:23.480
that had to point it out. On the flip side

265
00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:25.720
of that, it was a few weeks ago, I'm at

266
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:30.000
a diner. So I'm sitting at the counter of a diner, right,

267
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:32.759
and I'm hearing the employees talk about stuff because I

268
00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:34.879
because Tara and I were right at the register, so

269
00:15:34.919 --> 00:15:37.440
we're hearing all their conversations and it was really entertaining

270
00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:39.759
the act Trey, you know this, I don't care if

271
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:42.679
you're in a restaurant or an actual bar. All the

272
00:15:42.679 --> 00:15:49.519
good action happens at the bar. Oh, absolutely, you get

273
00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:53.080
patron drama, employee drama. It's all right there. So at

274
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:56.240
this diner, you have this older woman who I would

275
00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:58.480
say would be older gen X, so older than both

276
00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:04.320
of us, talking to hardcore gen Z girl, right, and

277
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:08.440
they're talking about another employee who's not there, and how

278
00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:13.279
terrible of a relationship she's in. So we're getting all

279
00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:16.960
the drama here at this diner. And so you've got

280
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:20.759
the older gen x A saying how he's supposed to pay,

281
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:23.559
she shouldn't be paying for anything, and the gen Z

282
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:26.360
girls saying like, look, I'll pay on occasion, like I

283
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:28.679
think it's good to split because it should be even

284
00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:31.679
blah blah blah. So it was interesting seeing their different perspectives.

285
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:34.759
Where it really got dark and twisted is the girl

286
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:38.519
they were talking about had the complete opposite relationship where

287
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:41.639
she was the one paying for everything and the guy

288
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:48.679
was a total loser, cheapskate, so much so that in

289
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:53.120
the three years they were together, he only bought her

290
00:16:53.519 --> 00:17:00.279
one birthday gift, And to make matters worse, the one

291
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:05.839
birthday gift he got her was one ear ring, not

292
00:17:05.960 --> 00:17:12.440
the pair, not the set. One ear ring, and that

293
00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:15.599
was there. That was her first birthday with him in

294
00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:18.759
that relationship. So they've had she's had two other birthdays

295
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:22.279
since that, and he hasn't He hasn't ever gotten her

296
00:17:23.160 --> 00:17:27.039
the other ear ring. That's the only thing he has

297
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:30.440
paid for apparently in this relationship was one ear ring

298
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:32.960
and for three years she's paid for everything.

299
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:41.880
I mean, was it a huge diamond stud.

300
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.400
No, It's like it was like a CZ type of situation.

301
00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:51.000
Uh, I mean, I see. I'm at a point now

302
00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:54.519
in life where I know that's wrong and everything else,

303
00:17:54.559 --> 00:17:57.359
But at the same time, I'm like, I, dude, how

304
00:17:57.400 --> 00:18:01.799
do you do that? Because I I couldn't, but it

305
00:18:01.880 --> 00:18:06.799
must be nice. I'd love to be taken care of.

306
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:10.839
I mean, I'd love to see his savings account. Yeah,

307
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:13.759
it's probably overflowing. And You're right, this is what's fascinating

308
00:18:13.960 --> 00:18:16.880
by it. This is what's fascinating about it.

309
00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:18.680
He is.

310
00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:21.480
It's like, yes, it is wrong to be that way,

311
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:25.839
to take advantage of someone. On the other hand, he

312
00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:30.960
is being so cheap that it's almost commendable. Like I

313
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:33.400
want to study it and find out things about it.

314
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:35.519
I want there to be a podcast about it that

315
00:18:35.559 --> 00:18:37.720
I would actually listen to. I want there to be

316
00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:40.799
a Netflix documentary on the guy that, in a three

317
00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:44.839
year committed relationship has only bought her one ear ring

318
00:18:46.039 --> 00:18:46.640
and that's it.

319
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:48.480
I'm fascinated by that.

320
00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:53.839
Yeah, I am too. I want to know how you

321
00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:57.240
get away with that At a certain I mean, do

322
00:18:57.319 --> 00:18:59.440
you start off and you know what's wrong and you're

323
00:18:59.480 --> 00:19:04.319
just suppressed seeing the urge to actually do something, and

324
00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:07.920
then you just get a customed Is that? Is this

325
00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:10.279
the case of a guy growing accustomed to a lifestyle?

326
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:14.359
Then he just yeah and yeah? Does he does he

327
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:16.519
have it? Is he is he saving money? Or is

328
00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:17.799
he just complete freeloading?

329
00:19:17.920 --> 00:19:21.759
And and and and does he have any courses available

330
00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:22.839
that I can take online?

331
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:24.160
Yeah?

332
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:24.440
Yeah?

333
00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:26.920
And if he is freeloading, I think he's missing a

334
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:31.240
really great opportunity for an income stream of Hey, you

335
00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:32.160
can freeload too.

336
00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:39.440
Let's get Daniel Cook from COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration in

337
00:19:39.680 --> 00:19:43.319
the Treehouse for your free roof inspection and property review

338
00:19:43.920 --> 00:19:46.960
called eight three three Cook DFW today to get that

339
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:51.880
scheduled eight three three COOKDFW. The website is cookdfw dot com. Daniel,

340
00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:56.880
part of the roofing process is knowing about ventilation and

341
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:59.640
how important that can be to the life of the roof.

342
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:01.519
That's a one thing you guys look at. It's not

343
00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:03.119
just about shingles.

344
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:03.799
Absolutely, Dan.

345
00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:08.279
A lot of homeowners underestimate the amount of attic heat

346
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:12.160
build up that their home has affects their AC system,

347
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:17.079
affects their roof condition, long term affects just overall their home.

348
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:20.000
And so when we come out we make that assessment

349
00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:22.200
with the homeowner. We try to educate them, make sure

350
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:25.640
they have the proper ventilation. There is a calculation of this.

351
00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:27.839
We walk them around if they're interested in going around,

352
00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:29.680
we show them what their intakes look like, what their

353
00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:32.359
exhaust system looks like, and try to make the best

354
00:20:32.359 --> 00:20:34.519
fit for their home. So that's a very common thing

355
00:20:34.519 --> 00:20:36.160
that we do and it should be done every time

356
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:38.279
you have construction done at your property. You need to

357
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:40.680
be educated on what's happening and why.

358
00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:44.839
And if you've ever dealt with a roofing contractor that

359
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:50.799
didn't have a conversation with you about ventilation underneath that roof,

360
00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:53.880
then you need to call Daniel Cook at eight three

00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:29.079

00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:40.839
digit temperatures. The heat does have an effect on the

388
00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:49.480
Big hugs, Love you, Carrie.

389
00:22:51.039 --> 00:23:02.160
Trey ain't there yet, but I appreciate the efforts. All Right,

390
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:08.240
Today is Tuesday, August eleven, twenty twenty six. Let's celebrate

391
00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:16.039
today with some birthdays. Actress and a Gun is fifty eight.

392
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:20.039
She's a two time Any two time Emmy winner, best

393
00:23:20.079 --> 00:23:24.359
known as Skylar White on Breaking Bad and a Gun

394
00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:27.319
fifty eight Today. This is one of those things that

395
00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:31.839
this is where I go counter to the mainstream. I

396
00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:35.400
did not love Breaking Bad. I think I'm on the

397
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:37.519
record as having said this a number of times.

398
00:23:37.599 --> 00:23:39.720
I got about halfway through season three.

399
00:23:40.200 --> 00:23:42.880
There was an episode where Walt is just doing chores

400
00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:45.279
and when he's underneath the sink in the kitchen, I

401
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:47.599
was like, I'm out. It was like it was like

402
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:49.599
it was like I was one of the sharks on

403
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:52.000
Shark Tank. They came in with that episode and I

404
00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:54.039
just said, and for this reason, I'm out.

405
00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:56.359
Never seen an episode.

406
00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:01.160
It just didn't hit me the it hit so many

407
00:24:01.200 --> 00:24:02.519
other people. I don't know why.

408
00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:05.960
It just I well, part of it is just in

409
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:10.880
the time frame in its heyday was in my drinking days,

410
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:13.680
and I missed a lot of TV at that point.

411
00:24:13.680 --> 00:24:16.960
But you had different priorities, Well, you know.

412
00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:18.920
If I did watch it, I would remember it. It's

413
00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:19.680
just the whole thing.

414
00:24:20.279 --> 00:24:22.920
Uh, you were living your own version of Breaking Bad.

415
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:29.200
Yeah, but probably the two two shows. I think the

416
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:32.480
two biggest shows of that time were Breaking Bad and

417
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:35.880
uh oh, what's the zombie show?

418
00:24:36.200 --> 00:24:36.319
Uh?

419
00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:37.599
Walking Dead?

420
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:40.359
Walking Dead. I've never seen an episode of either one.

421
00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:46.400
I was all over Walking Dead, and then I wasn't

422
00:24:46.839 --> 00:24:49.400
and and then and then I still see promos for

423
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:52.559
the continuation of Walking Dead, and I'm just like, how

424
00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:56.880
what serious? Like God, these poor actors. I mean, at

425
00:24:56.960 --> 00:25:00.119
least Jeffrey Dean Morgan who played Megan or plays Megan still.

426
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:04.319
I mean, he's at least done other stuff. But it's

427
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:08.880
the actress that plays Maggie. Her last name's Cohen. I

428
00:25:08.920 --> 00:25:12.920
can't remember her first name, but I mean she's just

429
00:25:13.000 --> 00:25:15.839
been all Walking Dead her whole career. Same way with

430
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:21.920
the lady that plays Carol Norman ritis who plays you know, Darryl.

431
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:25.640
At least he's had other things in his career. But man,

432
00:25:25.680 --> 00:25:27.720
at a certain point, you're just like, all right, well,

433
00:25:27.720 --> 00:25:30.160
I gotta I gotta ride this gravy trained while I can.

434
00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:31.559
And I kind of feel bad for him.

435
00:25:31.920 --> 00:25:35.119
I mean, I depending on how much money they're making.

436
00:25:35.160 --> 00:25:37.319
If they're if they're still I mean, if they're pulling

437
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:40.359
down seven figures for playing the same character every year,

438
00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:41.880
I have good on them.

439
00:25:42.400 --> 00:25:45.799
Hey, it worked for Susan Lucci on on soap operas.

440
00:25:46.920 --> 00:25:47.880
Forever Forever.

441
00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:51.559
There is something to be said about getting consistent work,

442
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:54.000
and as an actor that's one of the hardest things

443
00:25:54.079 --> 00:25:57.119
to come by. So it's always interesting. And this is

444
00:25:57.160 --> 00:26:01.359
a very delicate balance that you've seen some actors succeed

445
00:26:01.599 --> 00:26:05.279
and some fail, which is you've got a good job,

446
00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:08.279
you're on a consistent thing, you got a consistent paycheck,

447
00:26:08.319 --> 00:26:13.799
which is already statistically impossible to come by in Hollywood.

448
00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:17.519
So do you take the extra gambling step and try

449
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:20.559
to push it? And there's examples, like I said, of

450
00:26:20.680 --> 00:26:24.599
it turning out well and turning out bad. Noah Wiley

451
00:26:24.720 --> 00:26:27.279
is a good current example of that. He was riding

452
00:26:27.319 --> 00:26:29.279
a hell of a wave on Er and decided to

453
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:32.279
punch out and try to jump into film and stuff,

454
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:34.599
and it didn't go the way he thought, and then

455
00:26:34.599 --> 00:26:36.640
he was gone for Er and then he had a

456
00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:40.079
very just sort of mid career up until recently with

457
00:26:40.160 --> 00:26:43.880
the Pit. But then you've got other examples where Matthew

458
00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:46.880
McConaughey did Andy. Granted he was already in movies and stuff,

459
00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:48.960
but he was so tired he wanted to do something

460
00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:52.559
other than all the rom coms. So he basically stopped

461
00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:54.319
acting because that was all he was getting. All the

462
00:26:54.359 --> 00:26:57.440
offers were for romantic comedies. So I think I saw

463
00:26:57.480 --> 00:27:00.359
an interview with him. It was like almost two years

464
00:27:00.400 --> 00:27:03.279
before he finally got something else in that he could do.

465
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:07.640
He was looking into becoming a professor at ut MM.

466
00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:13.519
Then you take someone like Ellen Pompeo playing that's certainly

467
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:15.720
certainly worked out well for her.

468
00:27:16.359 --> 00:27:19.440
Yeah, I mean, I think the Gray's Anatomy Gravy Trained

469
00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:21.319
is not a bad one.

470
00:27:21.559 --> 00:27:25.599
And then they're going into I mean they're twenty twenty

471
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:28.920
eight plus seasons NCIS crew. I mean, they know there's

472
00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:32.759
been some ins and outs there, but uh, a few

473
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:35.839
of them have been there for most of the show.

474
00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:43.599
So I listening is if you're an actor and you

475
00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:49.480
have a solid part in something, it's not like I mean,

476
00:27:49.599 --> 00:27:54.039
it's not like you're Batman or William Shatner or you

477
00:27:54.039 --> 00:27:57.079
know some of these people that you had a short

478
00:27:57.160 --> 00:27:59.440
run on a TV show, but you basically were typecast

479
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:01.440
for the rest of your life. And if you're gonna

480
00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:04.680
be typecast and you get a twenty year run, screw them,

481
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:07.480
because you're roll with it. You should be set for

482
00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:08.400
life at that point.

483
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:11.839
Yeah, because, honest to god, if the Friends cast never

484
00:28:11.920 --> 00:28:15.839
did anything since Friends, they they are okay because they're

485
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:20.440
all still making twenty million dollars a year on residuals.

486
00:28:20.720 --> 00:28:24.880
The people the low key still the low key ones

487
00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:29.000
that have absolutely ridden a gravy train for thirty plus

488
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:31.359
years are the Simpsons, the vote people who do the

489
00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:33.119
voice work for the Simpsons.

490
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:37.200
That is a good gig, That's yeah, that's a great gig.

491
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:40.519
Part of I think when I think about this when

492
00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:42.480
it comes to like things like The Walking Dead, so

493
00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:47.160
uh is Sarah Cohen? I can't remember anyway, some of

494
00:28:47.160 --> 00:28:49.039
these actors that have been sort of locked into the

495
00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:54.160
Walking Dead series. On one hand, good on them for

496
00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:57.920
getting a consistent job and a consistent paying one, which is,

497
00:28:58.200 --> 00:29:01.920
as we've stated, very hard to come by. On the

498
00:29:01.920 --> 00:29:05.319
flip side, and this is this kind of luck to

499
00:29:05.400 --> 00:29:08.599
a certain degree, you're still on Walking Dead and you're

500
00:29:08.599 --> 00:29:10.599
looking back at some of the actors that used to

501
00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:13.200
be on the show like I don't know John Burnfall

502
00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:15.480
and you're like, oh my god, look at what he's

503
00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:19.680
doing now. Andrew Lincoln, who was Rick Grimes on Walking Dead,

504
00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:23.160
was a bonafide actor. He was in love actually before

505
00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:26.079
Walking Dead. He gets cast as Rick Grimes. It's an

506
00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:30.039
iconic role as far as television series are concerned. John

507
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:34.759
Burnhal's kind of his right hand supporting guy. They kill

508
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:37.559
Shane Off, which is John Berenthal's character, which needed to

509
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:39.759
happen in the story. It wasn't because John Burnhal was

510
00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:41.720
about to blow up at least as far as I know,

511
00:29:42.400 --> 00:29:44.440
but they write off his character. He dies in the

512
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:47.799
show and then he absolutely blows up into a bonafide

513
00:29:47.799 --> 00:29:50.079
movie star. And Andrew Lincoln is back on the set

514
00:29:50.079 --> 00:29:51.960
in Georgia doing Walking Dead, going.

515
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:52.799
Like, god damn it.

516
00:29:53.480 --> 00:29:59.720
By the way, I saw Spider Man and it was great.

517
00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:03.839
I feel like you might you maybe loved it a

518
00:30:03.839 --> 00:30:06.880
little more than I did, but I thought it was

519
00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:13.720
a fantastic movie. It's funny because months ago we talked

520
00:30:13.759 --> 00:30:15.759
about I said Jean Gray is one of those characters.

521
00:30:16.480 --> 00:30:16.759
Uh.

522
00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:22.000
Spoiler alert everyone, if you haven't seen the movie, sorry.

523
00:30:20.079 --> 00:30:22.160
Uh, I think at this point everybody knows.

524
00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:23.920
But Jane Gray is one of those characters that that

525
00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:27.400
never really got her due in the X Men, because

526
00:30:27.440 --> 00:30:29.720
she was one of the most powerful characters as far

527
00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:34.160
as the Mutants go. Really good introduction with her character,

528
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:40.160
but really good movie if we get the Punisher. The

529
00:30:40.759 --> 00:30:45.400
biggest pisser for that movie. And I used this as

530
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:50.680
double andre. Uh you have to wait, ye, I'll ow

531
00:30:50.759 --> 00:30:53.400
Marvel movies. There's something at the end after the credits

532
00:30:53.440 --> 00:30:58.160
everything else. I really feel like they've made the credits

533
00:30:58.240 --> 00:31:00.559
extra long for Spider Man because I had to pee

534
00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:02.960
really bad and then I just had to sit there

535
00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:06.039
and and really, of all the of all the little

536
00:31:06.559 --> 00:31:08.519
Easter eggs you get at the end of the Marvel movies,

537
00:31:08.680 --> 00:31:09.799
that was the worst one.

538
00:31:10.440 --> 00:31:12.200
That was that was that was bad?

539
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:14.359
Yeah, that was the worst thing about the movie.

540
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:16.440
Yeah, it really, Yeah, you're right, it was.

541
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:20.599
This is why it's important when you go into a

542
00:31:20.599 --> 00:31:23.880
Marvel movie, if you if you don't go the first day,

543
00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:25.599
like the first actual.

544
00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:26.519
Day of release, like I went on.

545
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:29.759
So, I mean, Spider Man's been out over a week now, right,

546
00:31:29.799 --> 00:31:32.000
So if you don't know some of these things, like

547
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:35.039
you can't expect the rest of the world to operate

548
00:31:35.079 --> 00:31:38.480
spoiler free after over a week. We now live in

549
00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:42.319
a twenty four hour society, so that's on you. But

550
00:31:43.160 --> 00:31:47.920
when Spider Man came out last week, I went on Sunday, okay,

551
00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.279
so enough time had passed to where I could search

552
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:55.680
how many end credit scenes are there, So I searched

553
00:31:55.720 --> 00:31:59.640
that before going to the movie, so I was able

554
00:31:59.680 --> 00:32:02.799
to want the credits started. I went to go pee

555
00:32:03.079 --> 00:32:06.279
and then came back to see the final end credit

556
00:32:06.519 --> 00:32:08.400
and I feel like I got the short end of

557
00:32:08.440 --> 00:32:10.400
the of the stick on that and I didn't sit

558
00:32:10.440 --> 00:32:12.000
there the whole credits like you did.

559
00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:18.839
I I had seen on social media what I thought

560
00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:22.839
was just part of the end credits, not or the

561
00:32:23.160 --> 00:32:26.039
scene at the end of the credits, but no, that

562
00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:32.119
was it. And I'm like, really like, and it's bad

563
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:37.240
on Marvel because they have to do better on the

564
00:32:37.279 --> 00:32:40.799
rest of them, or else people are going to not start,

565
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:44.119
you know, wait for that little nugget you get at

566
00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:47.359
the end. And sometimes with the Marvel movies they would

567
00:32:47.400 --> 00:32:49.640
at least divide it up and put some of that

568
00:32:49.759 --> 00:32:51.440
in the middle of the credits.

569
00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:54.400
Yeah, and I liked the formula that they did with that,

570
00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:57.559
and they got away from that formula with the Spider Man,

571
00:32:57.599 --> 00:32:59.880
so usually the formula was on the Marvel movies.

572
00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:03.359
The post credit scenes that they.

573
00:33:03.319 --> 00:33:06.480
Would do is the one that had to do with

574
00:33:06.599 --> 00:33:11.119
sort of the overall story and trajectory of future films.

575
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:16.480
Came right after the initial cast and director credits, right

576
00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:18.359
right so before you got into.

577
00:33:18.240 --> 00:33:21.480
The big before the line credits where they actually were

578
00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:24.359
still doing the scenes and putting the names out there.

579
00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:26.119
They would finish that and then do.

580
00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:31.160
The story based end credit scene that you needed, and

581
00:33:31.200 --> 00:33:33.400
then if there was one at the very end, that

582
00:33:33.519 --> 00:33:35.960
was one that was usually silly and you didn't need

583
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:37.119
it so you could go.

584
00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:40.119
The one Avengers is still probably my all time favorite

585
00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:43.119
because you know, they're eating schwarma.

586
00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:45.240
Yeah, it was beautiful. It is.

587
00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:47.440
It's still one of the best ones, without a doubt. Ye,

588
00:33:47.599 --> 00:33:50.400
and they're not saying a frickin' word and it was perfect.

589
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:55.960
Like, just get back to that more of that, please?

590
00:33:56.279 --> 00:34:02.480

a tender and heartfelt goodbye inside the Treehouse, it is

616
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.880
very important that we mentioned one other birthday because we

617
00:35:33.880 --> 00:35:36.199
were just talking about Spider Man and the Marvel Cinematic

618
00:35:36.320 --> 00:35:40.320
Universe and eating swarma at the end of Avengers. Chris

619
00:35:40.400 --> 00:35:45.199
Hemsworth is forty three today and he's very pertinent in

620
00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:48.719
the conversation we were having as well about getting a

621
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:51.760
role and just running it into the ground righting the

622
00:35:51.800 --> 00:35:54.599
way for as long as you can, whether it's what's

623
00:35:54.599 --> 00:35:58.280
her name on Walking Dead or you know whoever on

624
00:35:58.360 --> 00:36:02.000
a TV shows. Hymnsworth is very much on the record

625
00:36:02.039 --> 00:36:05.199
saying I will play Thor for as long as I can.

626
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:09.320
He loves I mean, he loves the role. He loves

627
00:36:09.360 --> 00:36:15.119
the money. Now, granted, playing Thor is different every couple

628
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:19.840
of years versus the same show week in week out.

629
00:36:19.920 --> 00:36:24.119
It's not like he's on NCIS Australia right and.

630
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:28.519
He's making amazing money doing it. But I'm with him.

631
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:31.000
If I get a role like that in the movies

632
00:36:31.519 --> 00:36:35.800
where you're making five, ten, fifteen, twenty million dollars per picture,

633
00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:40.159
Hell yeah, I will be Thor till I die.

634
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:47.320
Your Thor I mean that's that's one of the iconic roles.

635
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:52.039
I mean, it's it's why Patrick Stewart loved being you know,

636
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:55.679
Jean Lupicard. It's there are some roles where you go, yeah, okay,

637
00:36:56.440 --> 00:36:58.199
if that's how people you know. And then I mean,

638
00:36:58.280 --> 00:37:02.559
he's obviously Professor Savior. I mean, you know X men.

639
00:37:02.599 --> 00:37:06.440
I mean he's but yeah, I don't feel sorry for

640
00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:13.280
Chris Hemsworth because let's see, he's done. There's four Avengers.

641
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:15.360
There's been I think four Thor movies.

642
00:37:16.280 --> 00:37:24.800
Uh, hang on, Thor, Dark World, Love and Thunder Ragnarok.

643
00:37:24.840 --> 00:37:27.239
So yeah, for four individual Thors yep.

644
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:33.199
And then some some crossover rolls casting Captain America the

645
00:37:33.239 --> 00:37:36.199
other but some probably ten movies so far.

646
00:37:38.519 --> 00:37:41.480
Yeah, And he's still And because you're doing that, it's movies.

647
00:37:41.519 --> 00:37:43.760
You can still do other stuff on the side, like

648
00:37:43.760 --> 00:37:48.639
that little film franchise on Netflix called Extraction. Oh that

649
00:37:48.760 --> 00:37:50.679
first Extraction is so iffing good.

650
00:37:52.199 --> 00:37:52.840
Did I see that?

651
00:37:53.840 --> 00:37:54.039
Oh?

652
00:37:54.119 --> 00:37:56.719
Buddy, if you have not seen Extraction, oh my god.

653
00:37:57.119 --> 00:37:59.079
As soon as we're done with this episode goes, I

654
00:37:59.079 --> 00:38:00.639
don't care what you're doing the rest of the day,

655
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:01.639
you go watch Extraction.

656
00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:03.039
I feel like I did see it.

657
00:38:03.519 --> 00:38:04.119
I think you did.

658
00:38:04.159 --> 00:38:06.679
It's the one where he plays in Australian special forces

659
00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:12.440
like private contractor mercenary type and he has to protect

660
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:16.199
some Indian kid in India and there's another mercenary that's

661
00:38:16.239 --> 00:38:18.679
out to get them, and then something else happens, and

662
00:38:18.679 --> 00:38:20.440
then something else happens. He gets shot in the neck

663
00:38:20.480 --> 00:38:21.639
on the bridge and falls in the river.

664
00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:23.440
Oh yeah, okay, I did see it.

665
00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:26.599
But it's like the ultimate and hand to hand combat

666
00:38:26.719 --> 00:38:30.360
and gunpoorn, especially when he gets his glockjammed and he

667
00:38:33.320 --> 00:38:35.400
re racks the slide on his own chest plate.

668
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:36.480
God, that's awesome.

669
00:38:37.719 --> 00:38:40.519
I mean, yeah, I mean he did that limitless series

670
00:38:40.559 --> 00:38:46.760
on National Geographic and but again talking about good genetics

671
00:38:47.320 --> 00:38:50.119
and yeah, you basically everything you do is built around

672
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:53.679
the fact that you're built like a Greek god. It's

673
00:38:53.719 --> 00:39:00.400
really on far Norse as it were true.

674
00:39:01.239 --> 00:39:05.159
All right, Not to put a full dampener on the

675
00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:10.639
Shenanigans here inside the Treehouse, but it is important that

676
00:39:10.880 --> 00:39:16.239
we share with you and acknowledge something that is important

677
00:39:16.239 --> 00:39:25.440
to us. I'm not going to mince any words here.

678
00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:31.639
There is a hierarchy to Treehouse show listeners. We love

679
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:35.719
and appreciate every single listener we have, but let's be honest,

680
00:39:35.960 --> 00:39:39.840
there's some that rise above others, not because they're better

681
00:39:39.880 --> 00:39:42.440
than you or anything like that. It's just because they

682
00:39:42.480 --> 00:39:44.519
may have been around longer, we may have had more

683
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:48.920
of a personal relationship with them. And that is absolutely

684
00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:54.559
the case of our Robert, who got that name from

685
00:39:55.480 --> 00:39:58.239
over two decades ago. He would call into the radio

686
00:39:58.280 --> 00:40:02.159
show so often that when we would type in Robert

687
00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:04.880
on the call screen and then the comment of whatever

688
00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:09.280
he was going to say, Russ would typically ask, is

689
00:40:09.320 --> 00:40:13.599
that our Robert versus just some other random Robert that

690
00:40:13.639 --> 00:40:18.239
happened to be calling in? Because Russ knew if it

691
00:40:18.280 --> 00:40:21.039
was our Robert, it was going to be a good call,

692
00:40:21.199 --> 00:40:24.320
and then he was looking forward to it. It got

693
00:40:24.360 --> 00:40:26.679
to the point where I started typing it into the

694
00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:34.320
screen Our Robert, and we heard the unfortunate news last

695
00:40:34.320 --> 00:40:41.039
week that our Robert passed away. I don't take that lightly,

696
00:40:42.079 --> 00:40:46.559
especially because I feel like I've been sharing more death

697
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:50.360
announcements on this show in recent years than I really

698
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:55.519
care to, and it seems like they keep stacking up.

699
00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:03.280
I think, Trey, you and I saw Robert's sister post

700
00:41:03.320 --> 00:41:11.400
on social media about Robert passing away, and we had

701
00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:17.400
also received an email from her directly, so we saw

702
00:41:17.440 --> 00:41:19.559
it on We saw it on social media because we're

703
00:41:19.559 --> 00:41:21.599
friends with Robert on social media. We're friends with his

704
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:24.360
sister Shawna on social media, so we saw the post,

705
00:41:24.360 --> 00:41:27.440
I believe first, and then I checked the email and

706
00:41:27.760 --> 00:41:31.159
saw that she had sent us an email as well

707
00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:38.000
about it. So I'll share that with you now, Dan, Trey,

708
00:41:38.159 --> 00:41:43.480
and Jerry. This is Robert Powell's, Yes, the Robert you

709
00:41:43.559 --> 00:41:48.039
referred to as our Robert sister. I wanted to let

710
00:41:48.039 --> 00:41:52.199
you all know that after experiencing declining health, congestive heart failure,

711
00:41:52.400 --> 00:41:56.760
kendyan liver failure, and diabetes over the past several months,

712
00:41:57.400 --> 00:42:00.840
Robert passed away today. I know he would want you

713
00:42:00.880 --> 00:42:03.480
all to know how much he loved you guys and

714
00:42:03.599 --> 00:42:07.719
how special you all were to him. He loved the

715
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:11.840
Treehouse Show podcast, as do I, and he would want

716
00:42:11.840 --> 00:42:15.039
to make sure you guys knew that. Thank you for

717
00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:19.719
all you have done for him over the years. Shauna,

718
00:42:23.360 --> 00:42:27.400
Thank you for that, Shauna. And this is what I

719
00:42:27.480 --> 00:42:31.239
mean by sometimes listeners rise above other listeners because we

720
00:42:31.320 --> 00:42:33.679
get a personal relationship with them that we don't always

721
00:42:33.719 --> 00:42:39.000
get with everyone. Robert was one of the first listeners

722
00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:42.719
of The Russ Martin Show I ever met. When I

723
00:42:42.760 --> 00:42:44.519
started on the show in two thousand and two and

724
00:42:44.559 --> 00:42:47.039
got brought into screen calls. Dan Lewis, the producer at

725
00:42:47.079 --> 00:42:49.599
the time, told me there are certain people that call

726
00:42:49.679 --> 00:42:52.559
in a lot and they get, you know, special privileges,

727
00:42:52.719 --> 00:42:54.800
and the first one he mentioned was our Robert.

728
00:42:56.800 --> 00:42:58.039
I had so many.

729
00:42:57.800 --> 00:43:00.360
Great conversations with Robert over the years, both on and

730
00:43:00.480 --> 00:43:04.000
off the air. He would come to events, not just

731
00:43:04.519 --> 00:43:08.480
RMS show events, but he came to Treehouse events. He

732
00:43:08.639 --> 00:43:13.639
was front row at so many of our live shows.

733
00:43:14.280 --> 00:43:18.519
And I am going to miss him.

734
00:43:19.239 --> 00:43:23.119
And he was not only just a wonderfully just a

735
00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:28.000
wonderful person, but he always fascinated me because he had

736
00:43:28.039 --> 00:43:33.159
such a wide variety of interest in things that interested him.

737
00:43:35.199 --> 00:43:37.599
You would see him post, you know, and he had

738
00:43:37.639 --> 00:43:40.440
a tendency to go on streaks about posting about things,

739
00:43:40.440 --> 00:43:42.400
you know, and he'd get on like a church streak,

740
00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:44.320
and he'd post on church, one of the things that

741
00:43:44.360 --> 00:43:49.559
he absolutely loved. And I will argue that maybe there

742
00:43:49.559 --> 00:43:53.400
has not been a bigger supporter in the DFW Metroplex

743
00:43:53.679 --> 00:43:56.719
of women's professional football than Robert Powell was.

744
00:43:58.519 --> 00:44:01.239
That is absolutely true, and not in a creepy way

745
00:44:01.280 --> 00:44:01.559
at all.

746
00:44:01.760 --> 00:44:07.320
No, he really advocated it, advocated for it, and uh,

747
00:44:09.599 --> 00:44:14.000
I often had to bite my tongue and going dude,

748
00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:19.840
but you know, he came to birthday party of mine.

749
00:44:19.880 --> 00:44:22.800
He back when I worked at the IVY, would come

750
00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:25.360
down there every now and then. He really he was

751
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:31.239
a wonderful person, looked after his family, just a sweet soul.

752
00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:39.079
And yeah, I was. I was just I mean, my

753
00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:44.079
one word text you when I sent you the screenshot

754
00:44:44.079 --> 00:44:47.159
of it was just fuck. I mean, because it's like,

755
00:44:48.679 --> 00:44:51.159
we have been surrounded by a lot of death and

756
00:44:51.239 --> 00:44:56.360
loss this year and it needs to stop. So knock

757
00:44:56.360 --> 00:44:57.119
it off, everybody.

758
00:44:57.639 --> 00:45:00.679
Yeah, I think it's time and sorry for the pun,

759
00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:04.480
but whatever. It's time that we resurrect an old Russ

760
00:45:04.480 --> 00:45:07.719
Martin Show rule that Russ put in place years ago

761
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:11.679
when someone died, and that is, you're not allowed to

762
00:45:11.719 --> 00:45:15.960
die until we say it's okay, especially now, because we

763
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:20.000
need every listener we can get and if you keep dying,

764
00:45:21.039 --> 00:45:22.559
then we don't have anybody.

765
00:45:24.239 --> 00:45:24.480
Now.

766
00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:31.760
Some joking aside, there have been a number of listeners

767
00:45:31.800 --> 00:45:35.679
that have that have passed away over the years, some

768
00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:38.960
that we've had more personal relationships than with others. Some

769
00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:41.960
we've you know in passing here and there. There have

770
00:45:42.000 --> 00:45:44.320
been members of you Know the show and the extended

771
00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:47.719
cast of the show that have died. Obviously, Rus himself died,

772
00:45:50.679 --> 00:45:53.239
and I keep thinking about this morbid list that I

773
00:45:53.320 --> 00:46:01.159
need to make about the people in and around this show,

774
00:46:01.320 --> 00:46:04.800
whether it was you Know RMS or the Treehouse version

775
00:46:04.840 --> 00:46:10.679
of this show. Some of the other listeners that stand

776
00:46:10.679 --> 00:46:15.119
out to me, in addition to our Robert who can

777
00:46:15.159 --> 00:46:17.559
now be who now needs to be added to that list.

778
00:46:18.599 --> 00:46:21.679
One of the first was Gary from the Grove. There

779
00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:25.480
was a guy who was the pro wrestling addict and

780
00:46:25.519 --> 00:46:28.360
he and Russ would get into shouting matches, both on

781
00:46:28.400 --> 00:46:32.360
the phone and in person. One of the great bits

782
00:46:32.760 --> 00:46:36.719
in DFW radio history was Gary from the Grove him

783
00:46:36.800 --> 00:46:40.920
running through a plate glass sliding door, peeing his pants,

784
00:46:41.079 --> 00:46:43.559
all sorts of stuff that happened in and around the show,

785
00:46:44.119 --> 00:46:45.320
and we got word that.

786
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:47.360
He had died that That.

787
00:46:47.400 --> 00:46:51.679
Was one of the first ones that I remember period

788
00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:54.960
as like, oh my god, I'm not going to see

789
00:46:55.119 --> 00:46:59.159
or hear that guy ever again. And there's been There's

790
00:46:59.159 --> 00:47:00.800
been some others along the way as well. There was

791
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:03.360
one that was real personal to me because he and

792
00:47:03.440 --> 00:47:06.800
I struck up just sort of a bond through email

793
00:47:06.880 --> 00:47:08.960
and text and stuff and social media. Was a guy

794
00:47:09.000 --> 00:47:14.360
named Kevin Rounds. He was hysterical, hysterical listener, loved the show,

795
00:47:14.760 --> 00:47:18.880
would comment mostly behind the scenes. He I don't he

796
00:47:18.880 --> 00:47:21.920
he would call in on occasion. He wasn't as vocal

797
00:47:22.000 --> 00:47:24.280
and seen as Robert or Gary from the Grove, but.

798
00:47:25.800 --> 00:47:26.079
He was.

799
00:47:26.119 --> 00:47:28.079
He was the guy that when I was on the fan,

800
00:47:29.039 --> 00:47:33.119
he was still listening to me. And I had talked

801
00:47:33.159 --> 00:47:37.280
about how I had met this girl and he found

802
00:47:37.320 --> 00:47:40.480
her online and he's like, dude, you totally I'll kicked

803
00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:41.039
your coverage.

804
00:47:41.079 --> 00:47:42.800
You have like a bionic leg or something.

805
00:47:42.800 --> 00:47:47.320
And that was Tara and that was Kevin, and you know,

806
00:47:47.440 --> 00:47:50.079
similar thing his sister or his wife saying, oh he

807
00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:52.800
passed away. I was like what. And these things have

808
00:47:52.840 --> 00:47:56.039
happened over the years. I mean, there's there's many others,

809
00:47:56.039 --> 00:47:59.199
but it's just it's just sad. And I just wanted

810
00:47:59.199 --> 00:48:01.719
to make sure that we get a moment to say

811
00:48:01.760 --> 00:48:04.039
a proper goodbye to one of the all time great

812
00:48:04.480 --> 00:48:09.639
Russ Martin Show, Treehouse show listeners in our Robert.

813
00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:20.719
Very well said, and.

814
00:48:21.000 --> 00:48:23.800
Go ahead, Oh I was gonna make it just a

815
00:48:23.880 --> 00:48:24.519
joke of it.

816
00:48:25.199 --> 00:48:26.079
Oh I've got one too.

817
00:48:26.400 --> 00:48:28.440
We didn't have a call in line on the podcast,

818
00:48:28.440 --> 00:48:31.280
and everyone would understand. Also called Robert the mouth breather.

819
00:48:32.719 --> 00:48:35.320
That's true. He was a big, big mouth breather. And

820
00:48:35.519 --> 00:48:37.920
hearing about how he passed away, maybe that should have

821
00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:38.400
been a sign.

822
00:48:47.079 --> 00:48:47.960
We love you, Robert.

823
00:48:48.480 --> 00:48:49.239
We love you, buddy.

824
00:48:49.239 --> 00:48:51.400
We're gonna miss you a whole hell of a lot

825
00:48:51.400 --> 00:48:55.519
here inside the Treehouse. If there was a listener Hall

826
00:48:55.599 --> 00:48:58.480
of Fame, you would be first in line.
