In this episode of The Treehouse Show, we celebrate Hawaii honoring the man who defended a monk seal after someone threw a rock at it — and honestly, we fully support protecting animals and public beatdowns for seal harassment.

We also get into celebrity birthdays which somehow leads us into debates about Robert Pattinson, whether the Twilight movies were actually good, and the internet’s ongoing conspiracy theory questioning whether Stevie Wonder is really blind.

Then we discuss the disturbing story of a Utah couple accused of locking their 11-year-old child in a freezing garage without a coat, leading us to ask:
What is happening in Utah lately?
Is Utah trying to compete with Florida for the weirdest headlines in America?

Plus comedy commentary, pop culture talk, celebrity discussions, and bizarre viral news stories.

The Treehouse Show is a comedy podcast covering funny news, ridiculous current events, celebrity culture, and the internet’s strangest moments.

Hawaii Honors Hero!

Trade Trendholme and Rebecca Black coming up on the show today.

6
00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:29.480
Florida is crazy, but Utah is making a run at

7
00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:35.200
it in its own way.

8
00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:34.600
Aren't they always.

9
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:39.479
I feel like this Utah thing seems like it's it's

10
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:40.560
a newer development.

11
00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:49.520
No, it's I think it just Utah has always been crazy.

12
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:52.119
It's just it gets more pr these days.

13
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:59.640
Okay, So with social media, I means for that, there's

14
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:01.799
something blame. Yeah, we'll get into that.

15
00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:09.680
Before the The Mormon cults in and of themselves are batshit, absolutely,

16
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:13.400
and they've that's been going on for yeah decades. Yeah,

17
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:15.519
I mean you can go back to I mean, there's

18
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.319
one documentary about the shootings. You know, they blood feud

19
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:22.400
between like two brothers who were you know, both wanted

20
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:25.920
to be the prophet and the slaughter and killing and

21
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:29.120
exile to Mexico and it's.

22
00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:31.640
And then we gave them a reality show on TLC.

23
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.920
Well, there was one, uh one Netflix documentary about this

24
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:43.680
woman who basically turned herself into a prophet. And then

25
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:46.359
there was this other Utah family that had their own

26
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:49.680
YouTube channel with like, you know, quarter million subscribers about

27
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:54.519
parenting and everything else. And then the wife is you know,

28
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:57.200
the prophet tells the husband, oh, you need to just

29
00:01:57.359 --> 00:01:59.799
you know, stay away, and it's like.

30
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:01.480
What are you and the wife doing? What do you

31
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:02.040
do with the kids.

32
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:04.239
It turns out like one of the kids finally escaped

33
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:08.840
and had infections and wounds.

34
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:14.879
And just so Utah coming from Florida's title that is

35
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:15.479
coming up.

36
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:21.159
Today great place to live, beautiful, gorgeous, gorgeous.

37
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:24.319
It's beautiful, Like Trey said, it's a beautiful area, especially

38
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:32.159
if you're a wandering, abused child looking for it. In

39
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:35.759
a head to head battle, no one saw coming Sidney

40
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:37.960
Sweeney versus only fans models.

41
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:40.280
But I think it's.

42
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:43.360
Important that we uh start with some of the biggest

43
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:47.560
news that continues to come out of Hawaii. On yesterday's show,

44
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:53.680
we talked about the jackass throwing the rocks at the

45
00:02:54.120 --> 00:03:00.199
endangered Hawaiian monk seal in Hawaii. Rightfully, so, his name

46
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:05.439
is Igor something, thirty seven year old douchebag from Seattle

47
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:10.560
and then the beatdown he got from an environmental activist

48
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:15.439
immediately after. So there's a little more to that story.

49
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:21.560
Part two to the Hawaiian monk seal beat down, and

50
00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:26.960
that is from a local Hawaiian official recognizing the environmental

51
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:31.919
activists' efforts to protect what is Hawaii's.

52
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:34.479
Video of the monk seal that almost got hit by

53
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:36.400
the rock from the tourists who threw it. If you

54
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:40.039
didn't here it is again. And we've all seen, or

55
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:43.159
some of us have seen environmental activists. I like to

56
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:45.759
call him who took matters into his own hands to

57
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:48.919
educate what might happen if you mess with our land

58
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:54.159
or the animals. And our attorney over here wants to

59
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:56.560
make it clear we don't condone violence.

60
00:03:57.319 --> 00:03:59.879
And I love as the video hands over to the

61
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.159
Hawaiian attorney with the text underneath it saying we don't

62
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:09.159
condone violence. But the face on this attorney clearly loves it.

63
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:13.560
She's not condoning it from a legal perspective, from a

64
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:17.240
human and Hawaiian perspective, she's here for it, here for

65
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:21.279
all of it, because she's not the only one in

66
00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:23.439
that room. I mean, I feel all of us here

67
00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:27.000
inside the treehouse can also agree that while I go

68
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:33.480
through rocks, he caught hands and we all applaud his efforts.

69
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:35.399
The environmental activists.

70
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.560
And in the Venn diagram of things, there are very

71
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.759
few things where if you put Texas and Hawaii together,

72
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:42.120
they're going to intersect.

73
00:04:43.160 --> 00:04:46.560
This is going to be the one. We're right here

74
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:46.839
with you.

75
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:49.480
We're in the circle, We're in the crossover.

76
00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:52.160
Yeah. So like in you know, because like in Texas

77
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:55.079
we have our Gonzales canon, you know, come and take it.

78
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.639
In Hawaii it's the Monk seal.

79
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:03.680
You know. I think if you have someone saw you

80
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:06.680
actually do you know, abusing an animal here that I'd

81
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:07.279
like to think that.

82
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:09.759
Yes, hell, I'd like to hear you just get shot.

83
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:11.000
Mm hmm.

84
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.519
It'll it'll at least a goo'll beat down, Yeah, at

85
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:17.439
the flat a little pistol whipping.

86
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:20.360
You are the worst kind of human if you're picking

87
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:22.480
on something that is completely defenseless.

88
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:28.240
Yeah, especially when the douchebag in question who's throwing rocks

89
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:32.040
at this sealed was recorded in the video saying I

90
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:35.839
don't care, I'm rich, find me with whatever you want.

91
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:39.439
So they kind of are going to do that in

92
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:43.839
a let me, let me uh so, he faces fines

93
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:48.439
of up to fifty thousand dollars and potential criminal charges

94
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.839
carrying up to five years in prison. I for one feel, yes,

95
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:56.839
please throw the book at him. Same but I'm vengeful.

96
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.720
I don't think that goes quiet far enough, especially when

97
00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:05.000
he's already admit there's video evidence of him doing this.

98
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:08.040
He has not denied doing it. In fact, he basically

99
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:11.720
said I did it. Find me whatever you want. I'm rich, okay.

100
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:16.240
I have a number of ideas. The first of which is,

101
00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:20.199
all right, money bags, the first part of your punishment

102
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:23.959
will be, because you are so wealthy, is to establish

103
00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:28.879
and pay for a college scholarship, an annual college scholarship

104
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:32.279
for local students to go to college to study marine

105
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:38.879
biology with a specific emphasis on the protection and research

106
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:40.360
of the Hawaiian monk seal.

107
00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:42.519
Yeah. I can get on board with that.

108
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:47.720
No, no, what would you do?

109
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:55.399
Let him go to jail? I'm talking, Oh, well, excuse me,

110
00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:57.519
let him go to jail.

111
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:01.279
I have a feeling the monk seal thing would be

112
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:04.040
very similar to like being a child predator, and I'm

113
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:06.240
a feeling some jail time will absolutely be.

114
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:08.240
The worst nightmare of his life. Yeah.

115
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:11.319
I don't object to your your scholarship idea, but let's

116
00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:14.000
not sell short on the on the prison time.

117
00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:14.360
No, no, no.

118
00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:18.560
I assumed that Dan's punishments were in addition to the

119
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:20.399
prison sentence of five years.

120
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:23.360
Yeah, that's why I said step one, money bags, like

121
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:26.519
I'm I'm in full support of also going to prison. Yeah,

122
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:29.560
I also want to exploit how wealthy you claim to be.

123
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:32.480
So let's take your bank account out for a spin.

124
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:35.560
That seal was fenced in because she had just given birth.

125
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:40.319
Oh that makes it even worse a seal.

126
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:45.800
Yeah, and that makes this guy a bigger pos Yes,

127
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:51.160
so let's go back to believe it's a state senator

128
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:55.439
or the local Hawaiian official. Brendan Awa.

129
00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:01.680
We did make a letter of recommend recognition for mister

130
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:06.319
Ambassador of Aloha. I know everybody's trying to keep him anonymous.

131
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:13.040
The Ambassador of Alohas is the kid who's trying to

132
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:18.680
help the suspect through that fence. And I do like

133
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:22.519
how they are trying to keep the guy's identity anonymous.

134
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:26.839
Who was the defender of Hawaii. Another idea I had

135
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:32.840
was there are a number of Hawaiian defenders that we

136
00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:37.000
could have line up to also help this man through

137
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:40.480
a fence, the first of which would be Dwayne the

138
00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:41.200
Rock Johnson.

139
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:43.840
Yes, that's literally who I was thinking.

140
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:52.320
Of, followed very closely by WWE's Roman Reigns, or honestly,

141
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.000
at this point, even a buff Mark Zuckerberg will have

142
00:08:56.039 --> 00:08:58.039
a spot in line because he owns a good chunk

143
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:00.200
of Hawaii. Just just a whole bunch of people in

144
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:03.039
a line ready to show this guy the proper way

145
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:04.320
to go through a fence.

146
00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:06.000
In Hawaii, one after another.

147
00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:11.120
And here's something that is no surprise to me, and

148
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:12.720
I don't think it's going to be a surprise to

149
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:15.159
you Tred or you Rebecca, because we are all animal

150
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:20.120
lovers here, and some of the people on this planet

151
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:24.600
we hate the most are those that abuse animals, and unfortunately,

152
00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:28.639
we've all had experience with that, covering various stories in

153
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:32.440
our broadcast careers. So I know that there are people

154
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:35.480
out there that do not hold animals in the same

155
00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:38.480
regard that we do. And of course they are going

156
00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:42.240
to rear their ugly heads in these scenarios, and they're

157
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:46.480
going to try to do it with an air of superiority. Right.

158
00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:49.759
Here is one such example. On an account I saw

159
00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:54.679
a guy commented on a video of this Hawaiian seal

160
00:09:54.759 --> 00:10:03.039
beat down. I get it to come up here. The

161
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:06.799
guy says on the comment, so it's okay to allow

162
00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:11.840
violence over some damn animal. The first response back to him, Yes.

163
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:17.360
The next one is Patrick from SpongeBob, drioling like an idiot,

164
00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:22.679
also in support of yes. And this to me is

165
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:27.919
a very stark reminder. It is an important lesson to learn.

166
00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:34.399
Not everyone believes what you believe. Okay, what you may

167
00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:37.120
think is no big deal may in fact be the

168
00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:41.519
biggest deal to somebody else. So you may think it's

169
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:46.279
not okay to have more violence because of a guy

170
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:52.440
throwing rocks at a seal, whereas I believe, and Trey believes,

171
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:56.879
I think, and Rebecca probably believes as well, that you

172
00:10:56.919 --> 00:11:01.639
should catch more hell for it because you are taking

173
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:05.440
this violence to what is, in essence a defenseless animal.

174
00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:09.159
So it's again, this is one of those things I've

175
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:13.000
been on for years that just because you may live

176
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:16.159
by a certain standard doesn't require anybody else to live

177
00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:18.720
by that same standard. Just because you think it shouldn't

178
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:21.320
be a big deal. To throw rocks at animals. I

179
00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:23.559
may think it's no big deal to drown you.

180
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:31.799
Yeah, if you harm children are animals for your own amusement.

181
00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:36.279
I mean I think you should just be put to

182
00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:38.840
death or at the very least in this day and age,

183
00:11:38.840 --> 00:11:41.279
I don't know why we can't find an island and

184
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:45.200
just make a hell of a reality show of you know,

185
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:48.720
if you win the competition and you survive, you're the

186
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.080
only one standing, you'll get in a minimal security prison.

187
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:55.960
I thank you for saying a minimal security person and

188
00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:59.600
not like freedom. Yeah, no, no, no, you don't get freedom,

189
00:11:59.639 --> 00:12:01.360
no matter or how how much you win.

190
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:04.960
No, you're f in the scenario, matter what. And that

191
00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:07.600
was another thought I had. I love your idea, Trey,

192
00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:10.679
A similar idea I had at three am during my

193
00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:15.639
three am thoughts. This morning was after the establishment of

194
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:19.919
the scholarship right, multiple annual Right, so there's going to

195
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:21.120
be numbers of students, yes.

196
00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:23.799
Yes, for years, years on years.

197
00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:24.159
Yes.

198
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:30.840
Ideally generations is prison for a while and then maybe

199
00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:35.120
you know, put him in a raft and then just

200
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:37.759
shove him out into the middle of this of the Pacific,

201
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.120
off the coast of Hawaii and say good luck, sir,

202
00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:48.519
or please look this is this is a safe space

203
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:49.039
for ideas.

204
00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:52.679
We have this notion about seals that they're sweet kind,

205
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:54.159
but they're actually pretty mean.

206
00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:56.960
The other option is let him.

207
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:00.240
Go, you know, put him in one of these where

208
00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:02.519
you see the pictures of there's like a thousand seals gathered.

209
00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:05.559
Put him in the middle of that, yeah, swimming around

210
00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:07.159
in the ocean. Let's see if maybe they want to

211
00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:07.759
feed upon.

212
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:11.759
Him and cover him in mackerel guts.

213
00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:19.039
What the most damage there right on his bubbles, No,

214
00:13:19.039 --> 00:13:24.360
no need for mackerel guts. Just about thirty well placed

215
00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:29.080
incisions in his skin. So he's just bleeding out in

216
00:13:29.120 --> 00:13:29.559
the ocean.

217
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:35.679
So if anyone has any you know, thoughts about who

218
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.080
the most sadistic individual is inside the tree house, I

219
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:45.159
think you have an idea that I thought it was

220
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:49.840
just like, oh yeah, yes, how about a nice swim, sir.

221
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:56.399
It is though it really doesn't. It drives me absolutely crazy,

222
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.919
and this is a similar thing. And not to dredge

223
00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:02.639
something that's even worse, although that's technically what I'm doing.

224
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:05.639
I remember being on the radio on sports radio when

225
00:14:06.679 --> 00:14:09.759
Michael Vick's situation was happening. Yeah, and there were countless

226
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:12.600
people you know, ah, it's no big deal, blah blah

227
00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:17.120
blah about what he did, or even people you know saying, oh,

228
00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:20.639
he deserves a second chance. Just because you think that

229
00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:25.320
doesn't mean I do. And I think that's an important

230
00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:28.639
thing that most people can't seem to grasp just because you,

231
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.960
in a comment on social media thinks that what this

232
00:14:32.039 --> 00:14:36.279
guy did isn't that bad or he didn't deserve to

233
00:14:36.279 --> 00:14:39.960
get his ass beat afterwards, It doesn't matter what you believe.

234
00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:44.320
All that mattered in that moment was I gore the

235
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:50.039
douchebag made a choice to do something, and somebody else

236
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:53.360
made a choice to do something. It just happens that

237
00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:59.879
their two things are vastly different, even.

238
00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:02.960
If you don't believe in violence for violence or whatever.

239
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:06.960
The dude in his video basically said, look what I'm doing,

240
00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:10.519
come at me, bro, which opened the invitation for whatever

241
00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:14.120
comes back on him. And if that was a massive

242
00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:18.200
beating by a Hawaiian local, so be it. You asked

243
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:18.639
for it.

244
00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:21.559
That's actually interesting because like, I don't know if they're

245
00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:25.440
actually going to, you know, charge the environmental activist at

246
00:15:25.440 --> 00:15:29.639
all in this. They may have to by the level

247
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:31.679
of law, at which point you can easily say, like,

248
00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:34.240
we request a jury trial of his local peers.

249
00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:35.120
Yeah.

250
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:38.000
Easy, But if they even really needed any sort of

251
00:15:38.039 --> 00:15:40.440
an actual defense. Go with Rebecca's where the guy is like,

252
00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:42.600
I don't care, you can't do it to me, and

253
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:44.320
then it's like, you're right, and it does kind of

254
00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:46.919
open the door to the only thing I'm going to

255
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:49.159
respond to is getting my ass beat people. And so

256
00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:54.000
what do you do? You beat his ass? YEP, I've

257
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:57.159
not heard from the Igor guy at all. I don't

258
00:15:57.200 --> 00:16:00.120
know Trey or Rebecca if you've seen any statement or

259
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:02.639
anything come out of his camp.

260
00:16:04.679 --> 00:16:05.639
What's he gonna say?

261
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:09.480
Really, he has no defense here. He cannot win this situation,

262
00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:12.120
I don't think in any way, shape or form.

263
00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:14.799
But we're talking about a guy who, after he is

264
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:19.080
told he's been recorded throwing rocks at an endangered animal,

265
00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:22.200
he says, I don't care. Find me. I'm rich, I

266
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:25.200
can afford it. I would love to hear him say

267
00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:28.120
something else, because I'm sure he's got more to say,

268
00:16:28.440 --> 00:16:31.840
and I, for one, would like to open that for him, like.

269
00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:35.000
Double down, please double down, Please double down. He's gonna

270
00:16:35.039 --> 00:16:36.799
double He's gonna double down.

271
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:39.159
Because here's the thing. Even if he was to come

272
00:16:39.159 --> 00:16:41.240
out and say, you know what, I was wrong or

273
00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:42.840
done it, I'm not gonna believe it.

274
00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:44.080
No, not at all.

275
00:16:44.519 --> 00:16:48.159
No. So that's why I'm curious to see if he

276
00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:50.000
would in fact say something.

277
00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:54.960
The fact he hasn't.

278
00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:58.919
I am assuming he at least is has enough money

279
00:16:58.919 --> 00:17:01.480
that he's hired a good defense attorney who has told

280
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:08.839
him shut the f upa that Nope, nope, don't talk.

281
00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:09.960
Shut up.

282
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:12.960
Although it would be fitting if the environmental active has

283
00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:15.799
hit him so hard, I'm sorry, not hit him, because

284
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:19.680
that didn't happen. Uh, you guided him through that fence

285
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:21.960
in such a fashion that his mouth needs to be

286
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:23.599
that his jaw needs to be wired shut.

287
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:23.920
Well.

288
00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:26.039
He all fell We saw it, right, he fell through

289
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:26.480
the fence.

290
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:30.039
You gotta be careful when you went and look. Look,

291
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:31.599
it's tricky.

292
00:17:31.240 --> 00:17:34.559
Walking around with like rocks in Hawaii. I've been. It's hard.

293
00:17:35.160 --> 00:17:37.680
It's different when you go from sand to normal ground

294
00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:39.640
and there's a fence in the way. I mean, Hawaiian

295
00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:42.160
fences are just they're different than state side fences.

296
00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:42.759
Tricky.

297
00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:51.440
Yes, they'll punch you in the face repeatedly, and they

298
00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:53.839
really should come with some sort of warning.

299
00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:02.359
You're listening to the tree House.

00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:06.240

00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:21.960
He can change your ugly kitchen into a beautiful one,

305
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:23.920
and he's also a bit of a word smith. If

306
00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:25.839
you have not checked it out yet, you need to

00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:29.799
check out the Know Your Home Show from COOKDFW Roofing

308
00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:35.000

311
00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:40.960
that show, hasn't.

312
00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:41.039
It, Dan?

313
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:42.400
That has been a fantastic time.

314
00:18:42.440 --> 00:18:45.400
I look forward to every episode and it really is

315
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:48.519
focused on homeowners knowing their home and that was the

316
00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:51.559
baseline and that's what we're sticking with. We've had some

317
00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:54.920
really great guests that have been very informative, and I

318
00:18:55.039 --> 00:18:58.319
look forward to getting some feedback and having more people

319
00:18:58.400 --> 00:19:01.839
listen to that show and hopefully it really helps understand

320
00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:02.799
and know your home better.

321
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:05.240
And it really is an approach where there are no

322
00:19:05.359 --> 00:19:08.200
dumb questions. We want this to be sort of homeownership

323
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:10.759
one oh one, because most of us don't deal with

324
00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:13.559
these certain things every day the way that people like

325
00:19:13.640 --> 00:19:16.119
Daniel and the other experts we've had on the show do.

326
00:19:16.759 --> 00:19:20.160
So they are imparting their knowledge upon us the homeowner,

327
00:19:20.440 --> 00:19:23.440
so we can know our homes. So check it out

328
00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:27.960

339
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:19.799
Trey and Rebecca. Today is Wednesday, May thirteenth, twenty twenty six.

340
00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:25.200
Let's celebrate today with some birthdays one person that did

341
00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:27.799
not have to see the Iboor guy throw rocks at

342
00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:31.160
the Hawaiian monk Sieald is Stevie Wonder and he is

343
00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:32.119
seventy six today.

344
00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:33.920
Ah, that's debatable.

345
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:39.160
That is one of the great all time conspiracy theories.

346
00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:40.920
Please share, Rebecca, Oh, one of.

347
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:44.839
My absolute favorites that Stevie Wonder is not actually blind

348
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:48.799
and there is video evidence on YouTube of him catching

349
00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:52.200
a microphone. I do not think your sixth sense is

350
00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:52.839
that good.

351
00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:56.119
I have seen enough Ninja movies in my lifetime to

352
00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:59.440
know that it is possible from Hollywood to be able

353
00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:01.240
to catch things despite being blind.

354
00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:06.000
Okay, So number two evidence is he got on an

355
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:09.480
elevator with Shaq. Shack has told this story and he

356
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:12.640
was like, hey, Shaq, what's up. How would he know

357
00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:15.359
that Shaq is on the elevator when he gets on,

358
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:17.279
Shaq had not spoken to the man.

359
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:21.519
Maybe someone whispered in his ear. There's Shaquille O'Neil is

360
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:22.200
in the elevator.

361
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:25.720
It could have been. I'm just saying, Shack all the story.

362
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:29.000
Shaq can tell that story all he wants. I find

363
00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:32.680
fault in the believability of the story period, because I

364
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:35.559
don't think Shaquille O'Neil can fit in a standard size elevator.

365
00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:40.400
I mean he might not. It was he crouched in

366
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:41.359
the corner. We don't know.

367
00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:47.160
You'd have to be right. And look, I think, look,

368
00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:52.759
I am not a conspiracy theorist at all, but but

369
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:55.759
the Stevie Wonder thing has legs. I think it's hysterical.

370
00:21:56.799 --> 00:22:00.839
I don't think it's true. I don't know, but time permitting,

371
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:03.799
we may have a story later today that shows it

372
00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:06.799
is possible to get away with faking blindness for a

373
00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:11.359
period of time. The difference is though, with Stevie Wonder,

374
00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:13.839
no pun intended. The man's been in the public eye

375
00:22:13.839 --> 00:22:15.000
his entire life.

376
00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:18.359
Right, so he started as a child, is what I'm hearing.

377
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:20.480
So you're saying he's just really practiced.

378
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:24.119
Yes, he's so good at it now it's like second nature.

379
00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:30.759
Oh man, I just are there any other examples you

380
00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:33.079
can think of? Because he caught a microphone one time,

381
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:36.279
Shaquil O'Neil tells a story that Stevie Wonder walked onto

382
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:39.720
an elevator knew he was there. I feel like there's

383
00:22:39.720 --> 00:22:40.319
more to it.

384
00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:42.480
I'm sure there are more. I would have to do

385
00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:44.759
some more research. It's been a minute since I've fallen

386
00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:48.440
down the Stevie Wonder not blind rabbit hole. I'll get

387
00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:48.960
back to you.

388
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:52.480
Which, by the way, if Stevie Wonder was in fact blind,

389
00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:56.839
you would think he would fall in more holes. Has

390
00:22:56.880 --> 00:22:58.039
he fallen in one? Ever?

391
00:23:02.039 --> 00:23:03.880
Like if they were real, he'd fall off the stage

392
00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:06.480
from time to time, and that hasn't happened yet exactly.

393
00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:08.240
He always knows where the edge of the stage is.

394
00:23:09.319 --> 00:23:12.279
Yeah, getting on getting off not a problem.

395
00:23:11.960 --> 00:23:14.240
Because he moves around so much on stage.

396
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:18.359
He sits in a chair if I'm not mistaken, in

397
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:20.119
front of a keyboard at the piano.

398
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:23.240
Yeah, but what is impressed.

399
00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:24.519
I don't know if you know this or not that

400
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:27.880
Stevie Wonder on a lot of his songs he's playing

401
00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:28.599
every instrument.

402
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:30.920
Oh, I did not know that.

403
00:23:31.559 --> 00:23:32.880
Yeah, I didn't realize that either.

404
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:34.400
I mean a lot of it. Yeah.

405
00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:36.160
He was one of the first artists that really used

406
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:43.839
synthesized music. I knew you back God, but he is

407
00:23:43.920 --> 00:23:46.559
responsible for putting most of his tracks together.

408
00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:50.160
Wow, I know that. I know that Prince was famous

409
00:23:50.200 --> 00:23:54.079
for playing at times all the instruments on at least

410
00:23:54.160 --> 00:23:55.960
one or two or three of his albums and like,

411
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:57.880
you know what, I don't need studio musicians. I'll just

412
00:23:57.920 --> 00:23:58.799
play it all myself.

413
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:06.279
Yeah, did what's trying to think what the song is?

414
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:06.519
Uh?

415
00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:08.440
There's one song Prince did that the intro? What's the

416
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:13.519
one is that when does cry the guitar intro? He's

417
00:24:13.559 --> 00:24:15.519
he was never able to replicate it.

418
00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:17.680
It was like he laid it down for that one.

419
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:22.680
Ye know, Uh, that's why do it again?

420
00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:24.359
No, it was like it was like he was just

421
00:24:24.400 --> 00:24:25.559
out of his mind that day.

422
00:24:26.319 --> 00:24:30.519
Wow, I can't fathom that love. I can't either, Like

423
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:32.880
I am so talented. I did something that could never

424
00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:37.359
be done again, even by me. Yeah. So has anyone

425
00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:38.519
been able to replicate it?

426
00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:41.200
No?

427
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:43.119
One really know?

428
00:24:43.759 --> 00:24:46.480
What is what are you doing that's that special that

429
00:24:46.640 --> 00:24:48.759
nobody else can replicate ever?

430
00:24:49.599 --> 00:24:51.680
Like you go back and watch, I mean everyone's seen

431
00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:53.319
it at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame when

432
00:24:53.359 --> 00:24:57.279
he's that's they're celebrating George Harrison and they do the

433
00:24:57.519 --> 00:25:01.839
when my guitar gently weeps and and Prince, Yeah, he's

434
00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:06.400
with all these legendary guitarists and then he just goes

435
00:25:06.400 --> 00:25:09.680
on this riff that's just even the other guitarists are going,

436
00:25:10.359 --> 00:25:11.000
holy shit.

437
00:25:13.799 --> 00:25:16.000
I mean it is. If you haven't seen it, look

438
00:25:16.000 --> 00:25:17.880
it up on YouTube. It is one of the most

439
00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:20.079
spectacular things you will see.

440
00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:25.160
All Right, I gotta look that up. One of my

441
00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:30.400
other favorite stupid conspiracies legitimate conspiracies, but that's one thing,

442
00:25:30.480 --> 00:25:32.480
but I prefer this stupid conspiracy.

443
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:36.319
I thought Stevie Wonder was said he I don't think

444
00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:39.759
he was born blind, but that for a long time

445
00:25:39.880 --> 00:25:42.480
he could see kind of outlines of things.

446
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:46.720
I think I've heard that too, Trey. Okay, like he

447
00:25:46.759 --> 00:25:48.720
could just see like blobs.

448
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:51.960
I guess, yeah, so so so in the case of

449
00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:54.880
Shaquille O'Neil on the Elevator, Stevie Wonder walks onto an

450
00:25:54.920 --> 00:25:59.200
elevator and as he's walking on, he sees the outline

451
00:25:58.559 --> 00:26:01.640
have you seen mint q? And he knows it's black

452
00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:04.119
and therefore it must be Shaquill O'Neill. It's not like

453
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:07.000
he's the only seventy plus black man on.

454
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:07.960
The Pretty sure, Stevie.

455
00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:10.799
First of all, he always has someone with him, and

456
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:12.759
so I'm pretty sure there was someone going, hey, about

457
00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:13.839
to get in the elevator with Shack.

458
00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:17.680
It's possible. I'm just telling you what Shaq said. You

459
00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:19.240
can look it up on YouTube as well.

460
00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:23.160
Yeah, I also heard I also heard Shaquil O'Neil and

461
00:26:23.279 --> 00:26:25.880
some clip say something like blah blah blah no cap.

462
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:27.160
So I mean, I.

463
00:26:29.000 --> 00:26:31.680
Just have a problem with with middle aged us is

464
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:35.599
trying to sound like the kids. It just it doesn't work. Oh.

465
00:26:35.680 --> 00:26:37.480
I love Shack. I think if I met him in

466
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:39.640
real life, we would become instant best friends. It's a

467
00:26:39.640 --> 00:26:41.960
whole weird scenario that I've had for a long time.

468
00:26:42.359 --> 00:26:44.359
I believe that actually now that he lives in Doubt

469
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:46.839
in like the Dallas area, from time to time, I'm like, oh,

470
00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:50.480
come on, one day, I'm going to see you. It'll happen, Yeah,

471
00:26:50.519 --> 00:26:52.599
and our relationships is going to blossom and take off.

472
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:53.759
And then I'm going to get to try on his

473
00:26:53.799 --> 00:26:54.759
clothes in his closet.

474
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:01.079
That is such a specific, fantasy, specific that I think

475
00:27:01.160 --> 00:27:02.400
I need to warn Shack.

476
00:27:03.960 --> 00:27:07.559
It might be a little stockery, but think how fun

477
00:27:07.559 --> 00:27:09.640
it would be to try on all his giant clothes.

478
00:27:09.680 --> 00:27:11.640
I would feel so small and skinny.

479
00:27:12.640 --> 00:27:16.759
He went to brunch at a place years ago, and

480
00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:22.920
his order was two dozen eggs, oh man, two pounds

481
00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:27.519
of bacon, and I think it was two gallons of

482
00:27:27.559 --> 00:27:28.160
apple juice.

483
00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:41.119
Yo, man's gotta eat. He's just laying the groundwork to

484
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:43.799
have bigger clothes. So when he comes home someday and

485
00:27:43.799 --> 00:27:46.680
Rebecca's in his closet wearing his stuff, and that's how

486
00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:50.240
they're gonna meet, Let's be honest, she'll feel super tiny

487
00:27:50.279 --> 00:27:55.799
and happy. One of my other stupid conspiracies that I

488
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.599
don't necessarily believe but I love because it's so stupid

489
00:27:59.240 --> 00:28:03.240
is that Pitbull and Kenny Chesney are the same person

490
00:28:03.240 --> 00:28:05.440
because you've never seen them in the same place at

491
00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:06.000
the same time.

492
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:09.119
That's a good one. I haven't heard that one.

493
00:28:09.319 --> 00:28:10.599
They look eerily the same.

494
00:28:12.319 --> 00:28:14.279
I also like the Garth Brooks murder one.

495
00:28:14.839 --> 00:28:17.720
That's a good one. Mm hmm, that's a lot of fun. Yeap,

496
00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:20.359
like Trey's looking at me with the pit Bull and

497
00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:24.599
Kenny Chesney thing. Sid go look at a side by

498
00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:26.119
side photo tray sides.

499
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:27.400
Being small and bald.

500
00:28:28.519 --> 00:28:29.680
They look nothing alike.

501
00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:34.759
Yeah they do. No. I also feel like there's a

502
00:28:34.799 --> 00:28:39.519
third member of this conspiracy. Uh. Todd Frost is our

503
00:28:39.599 --> 00:28:43.519
former assistant program director at lone Star ninety two five

504
00:28:43.519 --> 00:28:46.160
and ninety seven to one the Eagle. He also is

505
00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:50.759
a tiny bald man. He could sort of pass for

506
00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:55.440
Pitbull Kenny Chesney, but also the bald dancing guy from

507
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.720
the six Flex commercials, all four of them same guy.

508
00:28:59.279 --> 00:29:00.000
I feel like that guy.

509
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:02.640
It's like, you know, fast forward thirty years for pit

510
00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:03.559
Bull or somebody.

511
00:29:03.920 --> 00:29:07.559
Yeah, I just like it be hysterical if the dancing

512
00:29:07.640 --> 00:29:09.880
bald man at six Flags actually was pit bull er

513
00:29:09.960 --> 00:29:10.680
Kenny Chesney.

514
00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:12.960
But if you'll ever get Kenny Chesney to go on

515
00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:15.839
stage and call himself mister Worldwide, then I'll give you.

516
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:17.240
Some you know, creed over that.

517
00:29:19.079 --> 00:29:19.880
Don't tempt me.

518
00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:24.759
As you have run into him.

519
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:28.720
I have run into him almost almost literally on stairs

520
00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:29.559
once I.

521
00:29:29.799 --> 00:29:32.400
Went and saw his So I saw the Kenny Chesney

522
00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:38.400
at the Sphere in Vegas, and which if you've never been, go.

523
00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:39.920
I want to go so bad.

524
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:42.319
Go see any concert. It is one of the most

525
00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:47.440
breathtaking experiences. But I literally I sent Dan because there's

526
00:29:47.440 --> 00:29:50.279
a whole he did this whole thing where the drone

527
00:29:50.279 --> 00:29:53.759
shots of all of Saint Thomas, Saint John and I.

528
00:29:54.119 --> 00:29:58.440
So I sent Dan and Tara like, well, no, I

529
00:29:58.519 --> 00:30:00.440
was like, you know, hey, this looks for me. He's like, yeah,

530
00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:01.839
that's where we were this.

531
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:04.559
Yeah, because like trays that video and I'm looking at

532
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:07.119
the video and I send back with an arrow marked

533
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:08.960
up on it and be like, you know that photo

534
00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:11.240
of you that you use for your cover photo on Facebook,

535
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:12.880
this is where it was taken. So you kind of

536
00:30:12.920 --> 00:30:15.640
saw yourself at the sphere in Kenny Jesse's video congradulation.

537
00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:17.759
Yeah.

538
00:30:17.799 --> 00:30:20.200
What a full circle moment there anyway.

539
00:30:20.319 --> 00:30:24.599
Uh, Stevie Wonder is seventy six years old today, despite

540
00:30:24.640 --> 00:30:27.799
everything that has been said just based on the man's birthday,

541
00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:30.480
Is anyone else surprised by the fact that he's not

542
00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:33.359
older than seventy six. I figured he'd be at least

543
00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:34.039
in his eighties.

544
00:30:35.960 --> 00:30:39.720
I mean yeah, quite honestly, yes, because he was like old.

545
00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:43.000
When we were kids.

546
00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:44.920
Yeah, like he's always been old.

547
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:49.200
Yeah, he's like a blind black singing a vagoda.

548
00:30:49.640 --> 00:30:49.920
Again.

549
00:30:50.720 --> 00:30:55.279
I will always go back to this point. Wilford Brimley,

550
00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:57.119
I think, was like flatine.

551
00:30:59.720 --> 00:31:03.759
Yeah, yeah, he was younger than Paul Rudd is now,

552
00:31:04.079 --> 00:31:06.480
and Paul Rudd, as we know, never ages or whatever.

553
00:31:06.599 --> 00:31:09.640
So the fact that Wilford Brimley looked as ancient as

554
00:31:09.680 --> 00:31:14.319
he did at forty nine is insane and fifty one yeah,

555
00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:18.279
you nowhere near the Wilford Brimley category. Tray.

556
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:22.279
If they were to redo Cocoon with today's standards, old

557
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:24.119
people would have to be in like their eighties or

558
00:31:24.200 --> 00:31:26.599
nineties have to be Yes, most of.

559
00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:28.720
The Golden Girls were in their early fifties.

560
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:34.119
Dude, that one kills me. That one kills me because.

561
00:31:35.559 --> 00:31:37.640
Be Arthur looked old from the day she was born, I.

562
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:40.440
Think, right like she was always gray headed. Yes.

563
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:42.640
Yeah.

564
00:31:42.839 --> 00:31:45.720
Also, just because I don't want to go ahead, Drey, No.

565
00:31:46.119 --> 00:31:50.559
Be Arthur just she was like, looked like my grandmother.

566
00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:52.640
I mean, it was just always.

567
00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:55.359
And there's one other birthday I want to mention today.

568
00:31:55.359 --> 00:31:56.519
Well it was a couple, but we're not going to

569
00:31:56.559 --> 00:31:57.640
get to all of them. But what I want to

570
00:31:57.640 --> 00:32:00.880
mention today, just because it's sort of pertinent, Robert Pattinson

571
00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:04.319
turns forty today. So this is a stretch, but hang

572
00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:06.960
with me for a moment. Okay. The other day we

573
00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:12.920
talked about Tracy Lord's Yes, Trey, I.

574
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:13.960
Love how your prefaces.

575
00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:16.480
This is a stretch when we just got finished started

576
00:32:16.519 --> 00:32:19.720
with Stevie Wonder and ended with Kitty Chesney and the Islands.

577
00:32:19.839 --> 00:32:26.720
But okay, go ahead, hear me out. So Robert Pattinson

578
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:30.240
is forty today. Last week we talked about Tracy Lord's

579
00:32:30.279 --> 00:32:33.240
and it was her birthday and what an amazing arc

580
00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:36.359
her career had because she started out as underage porn

581
00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:40.519
and did the almost unthinkable, which is crossing over into

582
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:45.559
mainstream film out of porn. Very few other actors have

583
00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:49.960
been able to do that. What do you think is

584
00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:53.519
more difficult going from porn to mainstream or, in the

585
00:32:53.559 --> 00:32:57.759
case of Robert Pattinson, going from Twilight anything else.

586
00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:00.880
Yes, Robert Pattinson, hands down, I'm with you.

587
00:33:01.839 --> 00:33:06.279
Going from sparkly vampire in three films. You would think

588
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:08.680
would type cast you to the ends of the earth.

589
00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:12.759
But the man is resilient. He's so good. He's such

590
00:33:12.759 --> 00:33:17.119
a good actor that he's a phenomenal batman. When I

591
00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:18.960
first heard they had cast him at It, I was like,

592
00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:23.200
this is it. This it's trash. That franchise is cooked

593
00:33:23.200 --> 00:33:25.599
before it even gets started. And then I saw the

594
00:33:25.599 --> 00:33:28.200
first trailer and I thought, ooh s good batman. And

595
00:33:28.240 --> 00:33:30.039
I saw the movie and still think it.

596
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:32.720
Yeah, phenomenal actor.

597
00:33:33.720 --> 00:33:35.599
Yeah, No, he's good. He's really good.

598
00:33:36.079 --> 00:33:37.640
I know and I liked him as Batman.

599
00:33:37.880 --> 00:33:40.799
I'm not I think probably one of the things that

600
00:33:41.079 --> 00:33:43.759
is after Twilight, I feel like he took a ten

601
00:33:43.839 --> 00:33:45.400
year hiatus.

602
00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:46.960
Oh, he just did other stuff.

603
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:50.400
He did stuff that like didn't really hit the mainstream.

604
00:33:50.400 --> 00:33:52.039
Like he's had a lot of really good films that

605
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:53.319
kind of are under the radar.

606
00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:55.559
He did a I can't remember the name of the film,

607
00:33:55.559 --> 00:33:57.720
but he did a movie it might just be called

608
00:33:57.720 --> 00:34:00.599
The Lighthouse. It was something in or around the Lighthouse

609
00:34:00.640 --> 00:34:01.559
with Willem Defoe.

610
00:34:01.640 --> 00:34:03.200
I mean, that's which was amazing.

611
00:34:04.640 --> 00:34:07.480
The Mickey seventeen whatever it was. I haven't seen that yet,

612
00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:09.400
but just the clips that I've seen to that is great.

613
00:34:09.480 --> 00:34:17.519
He was phenomenal and tenant. There's a movie with Timothy

614
00:34:17.559 --> 00:34:20.280
Shalome I think, I think it's just called The King

615
00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:27.760
and Robert Pattinson plays the son of an of an

616
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:32.000
enemy and they fight, and like Robert Pattinson plays the

617
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:35.519
best jerk you have ever seen in most films. In

618
00:34:35.559 --> 00:34:38.679
that specific movie, he plays a Frenchman and he's just

619
00:34:39.000 --> 00:34:43.119
the worst. Dude's a good actor. But again, most importantly

620
00:34:43.199 --> 00:34:45.760
is the fact that he actually turned in a really

621
00:34:45.800 --> 00:34:46.480
good Batman.

622
00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:49.280
No, I always question how he even got a role

623
00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:51.719
after Twilight, because I had friends that made me go

624
00:34:51.760 --> 00:34:56.880
and suffer through those movies and it was awful. They

625
00:34:56.880 --> 00:35:00.280
were all awful. It was like, did somebody and you

626
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:04.000
a script yesterday and then you're expected to do do

627
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:05.559
it today. It was so bad.

628
00:35:06.119 --> 00:35:10.320
And then having to act opposite Kristen Stewart or I.

629
00:35:10.280 --> 00:35:14.079
Hate her so much. I do not like her in anything.

630
00:35:14.239 --> 00:35:17.960
She just looks I don't know, I don't like her.

631
00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:21.280
So, Trey, you're not on board with Robert Pattinson in

632
00:35:21.320 --> 00:35:23.320
general or rob like you said you liked him as

633
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:24.400
the Batman.

634
00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:27.159
I liked, and I actually I didn't. I mean, they

635
00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:29.559
weren't my favorite, but I didn't even mind the Twilight movies.

636
00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:34.039
But I just I.

637
00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:36.159
Felt like he kind of dropped off, And obviously he didn't.

638
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:40.920
But he wasn't in the in the spotlight like he

639
00:35:41.079 --> 00:35:44.239
was during the Twilight series, Oh for sure. But then again,

640
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:49.800
I mean that is like the millennials, you know, love story,

641
00:35:49.920 --> 00:35:53.320
so he has a built in audience forever.

642
00:35:54.719 --> 00:35:56.679
And then I think it was also a story that

643
00:35:57.639 --> 00:35:57.800
was it?

644
00:35:58.360 --> 00:35:58.760
The story?

645
00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:01.079
Was it? Jennifer Lawrence have told the story about Robert

646
00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:03.639
Pattinson eating out of her trash.

647
00:36:03.719 --> 00:36:05.760
Yes, I think so. I think you're right. He came

648
00:36:05.800 --> 00:36:08.280
the Girls Night and then ended up eating food out

649
00:36:08.280 --> 00:36:09.000
of her trash.

650
00:36:09.079 --> 00:36:11.280
Yeah. It was on The Grand Norton Show. Jennifer Lawrence

651
00:36:11.360 --> 00:36:13.000
is on it. She's telling the story about Oh, she

652
00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:15.119
and Robert Pattins in her buds and he was out

653
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:17.760
drinking and she's like, come on over, and he, you know,

654
00:36:18.079 --> 00:36:20.199
busting on girls Night, ends up eating food out of

655
00:36:20.199 --> 00:36:21.960
her trash.

656
00:36:22.199 --> 00:36:23.320
He's so down to earth.

657
00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:26.480
I know, they're just like us, just.

658
00:36:26.400 --> 00:36:28.639
Like us, except I've never eaten out of the trash.

659
00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:32.360
So yeah, I'm so glad, I said.

660
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:38.360
Yet, I'm so glad you said trash because you started off,

661
00:36:38.440 --> 00:36:40.719
you know, eating out Jennifer Lawrence, and I was like, Wow.

662
00:36:41.599 --> 00:36:46.679

680
00:37:55.039 --> 00:37:59.119
and Rebecca a few more minutes, Let's go to Utah,

681
00:37:59.199 --> 00:38:03.719
shall we. It's beautiful all times of year, but especially

682
00:38:03.760 --> 00:38:06.440
when you've got a Utah couple jailed for making an

683
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:09.719
eleven year old sleep in a freezing garage to learn

684
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:13.559
how to be homeless. And if I'm being honest, like

685
00:38:13.599 --> 00:38:14.719
they could have gone further.

686
00:38:17.239 --> 00:38:21.920
Yeah, they could have eaten out Jennifer Lawrence's trash.

687
00:38:22.079 --> 00:38:25.599
That's gonna teach you some things about being homeless. A

688
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:29.840
Taylorsville couple Taylorsville, Utah. A Taylorsville, Utah couple is behind

689
00:38:29.840 --> 00:38:33.559
bars after they allegedly sent their child to the garage

690
00:38:33.639 --> 00:38:37.320
in near freezing temperatures without a coat to learn how

691
00:38:37.360 --> 00:38:40.119
to be homeless. I'll be honest with you, I really

692
00:38:40.199 --> 00:38:43.079
still feel like they could have done more there, because

693
00:38:43.119 --> 00:38:46.639
most homeless people don't have a cozy garage to curl

694
00:38:46.719 --> 00:38:52.199
up in. Robert James McIntosh and Lucia Liney Macintosh, both

695
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:55.599
forty six, have each been arrested on one count of

696
00:38:55.679 --> 00:39:00.239
intentional or knowing aggravated child abuse first degree. Melany be

697
00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:03.719
formally in charge, but according to documents, women contacted Taylorsville

698
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:06.000
Police for a welfare check in her neighbor. She reported

699
00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:08.000
that the night before, her neighbor's eleven year old child

700
00:39:08.320 --> 00:39:10.880
came to her door and asked to use the bathroom.

701
00:39:11.639 --> 00:39:14.000
Child victim allegedly told the neighbor they wanted to live

702
00:39:14.039 --> 00:39:16.079
with her and didn't want to go home because their

703
00:39:16.119 --> 00:39:18.440
parents locked them out of the house. While the child

704
00:39:18.559 --> 00:39:20.280
was at her house, the victim's mother showed up to

705
00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:22.440
bring the victim home. Later that night. The neighbor said

706
00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:24.239
she saw the eleven year old in the garage for

707
00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:28.519
several hours without a coat. After receiving the report, the

708
00:39:28.519 --> 00:39:31.639
police responded immediately for the welfare check. When they arrived, Alicia,

709
00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:33.679
the child's mother, answered the door and state of the

710
00:39:33.719 --> 00:39:35.280
eleven year old was in the garage and had been

711
00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:37.400
sent there as punishment. Police said, you're under arrest.

712
00:39:38.599 --> 00:39:42.400
You don't admit, deny, deny the ny lady, come on, Uh.

713
00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:46.719
This kind of goes back to like when we were

714
00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:49.719
all growing up. If a neighbor reported our parents were like,

715
00:39:49.760 --> 00:39:52.280
I think there's some child something going on over there.

716
00:39:52.440 --> 00:39:56.840
Our parents probably would have been like, yeah, and tell

717
00:39:56.880 --> 00:39:59.119
the police. Here's what they did and here's why I'm

718
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:01.159
doing that, and the police be like, cool, carry on,

719
00:40:01.199 --> 00:40:06.119
we'll see you later. But today's standards, everyone's taken a ride.

720
00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:09.559
There's going to be investigations there. But we were talking

721
00:40:09.599 --> 00:40:12.280
about it at the beginning of the show. Whenever this

722
00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:16.480
weird stuff happens, especially family stuff, it seems to be

723
00:40:16.519 --> 00:40:19.760
happening in Utah. Florida is the king of crazy. I

724
00:40:19.760 --> 00:40:25.079
don't think that will ever change. Florida's wild Utah has

725
00:40:25.119 --> 00:40:28.119
some other gear that is just.

726
00:40:29.719 --> 00:40:31.920
Weird. Mormon.

727
00:40:33.400 --> 00:40:37.239
Okay, that's the common denominator there for the factor. The

728
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:38.480
X factor is Mormon.

729
00:40:39.519 --> 00:40:41.239
Well, I mean, look, I mean most of what I

730
00:40:41.280 --> 00:40:43.840
know about the Mormon religion I learned watching South Park,

731
00:40:43.880 --> 00:40:48.199
and to be fair, yeah, pretty accurate with it. And

732
00:40:48.239 --> 00:40:51.760
so when you learn about it, it's like okay, really,

733
00:40:53.039 --> 00:40:56.280
but then you see all the monuments and the testaments

734
00:40:57.199 --> 00:40:59.480
built around their religions, like, okay, I get it. And

735
00:40:59.559 --> 00:41:03.360
there is a level of kind of like living in

736
00:41:03.519 --> 00:41:10.440
Highland Park, Dallas, it's you have to maintain a certain status, yap.

737
00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:12.519
Whenever you leave the house, you've got to look a

738
00:41:12.519 --> 00:41:15.800
certain way and blah blah blah. There's expectations in society

739
00:41:16.079 --> 00:41:17.639
and Utah seems to have a lot of it.

740
00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:24.800
Well, you've got the devout Mormons that are the predominant

741
00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:26.280
group in Utah.

742
00:41:26.760 --> 00:41:32.880
You have the ones that are Mormon light that are

743
00:41:32.880 --> 00:41:36.119
on TV shows and things like that.

744
00:41:35.639 --> 00:41:39.079
The real Mormon housewives types. Yeah.

745
00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:44.199
But because if you're true to the Mormon you know,

746
00:41:44.239 --> 00:41:47.400
you don't drink, you don't smoke, you don't you have caffeine.

747
00:41:48.800 --> 00:41:52.719
And it's very patriarchal.

748
00:41:52.599 --> 00:41:57.400
And you know, it's almost like they have their own

749
00:41:57.400 --> 00:42:00.119
set of rules and laws and stuff like that they

750
00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:00.719
abide by.

751
00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:03.679
They kind of do and like everything trade is laid out,

752
00:42:03.800 --> 00:42:06.400
all those all those parameters. It's like, man, that sounds

753
00:42:06.440 --> 00:42:08.840
like a really boring television joke because most of the

754
00:42:08.840 --> 00:42:11.840
Housewives shows are fueled on drugs and booze.

755
00:42:13.920 --> 00:42:20.679
Yeah well yeah, I mean it's they're all they all

756
00:42:20.679 --> 00:42:22.599
believe they're going to be the next you know it.

757
00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:23.559
A lot of the.

758
00:42:23.559 --> 00:42:25.679
Craziness centers on around people thinking they're gonna be the

759
00:42:25.719 --> 00:42:28.039
next prophet and declaring themselves so.

760
00:42:28.599 --> 00:42:34.199
And then a lot of times it's like two males

761
00:42:34.199 --> 00:42:37.920
and they're going to fight to the death of it's

762
00:42:39.440 --> 00:42:41.280
they do some bizarre stuff.

763
00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:45.360
Thank you for the understatement of the week, Tray. I

764
00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:47.920
would also like to point out that I'm wary of

765
00:42:48.039 --> 00:42:51.920
anyone that claims to be or wants to be a

766
00:42:52.000 --> 00:42:56.599
prophet or profit adjacent and I don't need the most

767
00:42:56.599 --> 00:42:59.000
recent season of The Boys to help me come to

768
00:42:59.039 --> 00:43:04.400
that conclusion, although it has helped a lot. So Yeah,

769
00:43:04.440 --> 00:43:07.920
the idea of the profit type stuff and building control

770
00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:11.679
and societies around religion just just makes my skin crawl already.

771
00:43:11.920 --> 00:43:14.559
Like we all grew up in like the Robert Tilton era.

772
00:43:16.320 --> 00:43:18.199
Did we learn nothing from that?

773
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:21.880
Yeah, they weren't declaring themselves profits, they were just no.

774
00:43:22.000 --> 00:43:24.239
But like I just remember like in the summertime, my

775
00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:26.119
brother and I would watch him on TV and he

776
00:43:26.119 --> 00:43:28.199
would like have people call in and he would pray

777
00:43:28.320 --> 00:43:31.320
over like the prayer requests that came in or whatever

778
00:43:31.400 --> 00:43:33.920
as healing of them. So it was like the beginning

779
00:43:34.039 --> 00:43:37.320
of that whole kind of movement, if you will. And

780
00:43:37.360 --> 00:43:40.719
I think as a kid, being skeptical has taught me

781
00:43:40.840 --> 00:43:43.920
to know that like odds are, this is not going

782
00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:45.239
to be a prophet of any kind.

783
00:43:46.119 --> 00:43:47.960
It's like, uh, because I also grew up in the

784
00:43:48.039 --> 00:43:51.960
land of Oral Roberts. Yes, in northeastern Oklahoma. Then you

785
00:43:52.000 --> 00:43:56.679
had Jim and Tammy, Faye Baker, all those types. But yeah,

786
00:43:56.679 --> 00:43:57.880
they're just they're just there's some.

787
00:43:58.400 --> 00:43:59.880
Don't forget Jimmy Swaggered and.

788
00:44:00.440 --> 00:44:02.519
Thank you, thank you Jimmy Swagger. He's he's really one

789
00:44:02.519 --> 00:44:06.360
of the ultimates. That man could cry on a dime.

790
00:44:06.719 --> 00:44:10.480
That was a talent. But there seemed to be something

791
00:44:10.519 --> 00:44:14.280
in the water in Utah. It's a beautiful state, arguably

792
00:44:14.320 --> 00:44:17.719
the most beautiful in the United States, but something weird

793
00:44:18.239 --> 00:44:20.760
is there. And I guess you're right, maybe it's just

794
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:22.440
all stemming from the Mormonism.

795
00:44:22.559 --> 00:44:23.679
Well, I mean, it's.

796
00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:29.039
Not to offend anyone, but by most theologians like it's

797
00:44:29.079 --> 00:44:34.360
a cult. Yeah, and because it involves a Third Testament

798
00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:39.159
of Jesus, almost everyone else.

799
00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:40.079
Goes, yeah, no, it did happen.

800
00:44:40.679 --> 00:44:41.199
Uh.

801
00:44:41.559 --> 00:44:44.239
It was a bloody feud for for land and they

802
00:44:44.400 --> 00:44:46.360
ended up in Utah.

803
00:44:46.440 --> 00:44:49.079
There is safety in numbers. I'm guessing like, hey, if

804
00:44:49.119 --> 00:44:52.079
we all joined together in this one area, there's not well.

805
00:44:52.159 --> 00:44:52.719
It was no.

806
00:44:52.760 --> 00:44:54.800
They all they all wanted to be away from everyone

807
00:44:54.800 --> 00:44:57.679
because they were practicing polygamy and had a very own,

808
00:44:57.760 --> 00:45:00.599
their own, very interesting set of rules on how things

809
00:45:00.599 --> 00:45:03.559
should be done. So they went out west and found

810
00:45:03.599 --> 00:45:09.360
you to Utah, and they have their own I mean

811
00:45:09.599 --> 00:45:11.880
it's very wealthy, they have their own businesses, they're all.

812
00:45:11.920 --> 00:45:14.480
I mean, it's very encapsulated.

813
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:18.880
I knew it was a weird religion when the seventh

814
00:45:18.920 --> 00:45:21.800
grade basketball team I was on was coached by a

815
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:24.440
Mormon and his son who's also Mormon, was on the team,

816
00:45:24.679 --> 00:45:26.599
and they were like, hey, we have this league, the

817
00:45:26.679 --> 00:45:28.760
Church League. You want to come play, We need an

818
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:30.920
extra player. I was like sure, And then I get

819
00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:33.880
there and the basketball courts covered in carpet. I was like,

820
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:39.039
this is these people are weird. I knew things were

821
00:45:39.039 --> 00:45:43.800
odd right then and there, Rebecca. I know you need

822
00:45:43.840 --> 00:45:49.599
to go, but if I remember correctly here speaking of

823
00:45:49.639 --> 00:45:53.039
weird religious stuff, one other notable birthday I forgot to

824
00:45:53.079 --> 00:45:56.719
mention l Ron Hubbard. He would be one hundred and

825
00:45:56.719 --> 00:46:01.800
fifteen today, but he passed away in nineteen eighty six. Sodynetics, scientologist, Yes,

826
00:46:01.920 --> 00:46:04.800
scientology and dionetics can't make you immortal.

827
00:46:06.039 --> 00:46:08.639
No, P. T. Barnum of religion.

828
00:46:15.400 --> 00:46:22.639
I really do sometimes enjoy this show. Stevie Wonder, Robert Pattinson,

829
00:46:23.000 --> 00:46:26.639
l Ron Hubbard and the Mormon religion all wrapped under

830
00:46:26.679 --> 00:46:28.840
one giant circus tint of a treehouse.

831
00:46:29.159 --> 00:46:30.920
I mean, and you know it's bad when the Mormons

832
00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:32.320
look at you and go, you're fucking weird.

833
00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:37.679
That'll do it. We will see you next time right

834
00:46:37.719 --> 00:46:40.360
here inside the Treehouse for all things Treehouse, Treehouse on

835
00:46:40.400 --> 00:46:42.480
air dot com. Give us all a follow on social

836
00:46:43.400 --> 00:46:46.119
