We start off today learning about a real life Speedy Gonzales, who is quite the criminal. Then we talk about jobs, job interviews, Dak Prescott, and tales from a real life HR lady. Then, we learn about a man who has emotional support tigers, and you'll never guess where he says he got them. Finally, we learn about a guy who really wanted a refill on his lemonade.

1
00:00:24.760 --> 00:00:28.679
It is time to leave your worries outside and laugh

2
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:33.719
with us inside the treehouse. Today is Wednesday, April eighth,

3
00:00:33.799 --> 00:00:39.399
two thy twenty five. I'm Daniel Malley. He is Trey Trendhome.

4
00:00:39.439 --> 00:00:42.560
Happy hump Day, Trey.

5
00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:46.960
That has to me too many settled meetings with you.

6
00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:51.679
It does typically, But there's nothing weird going on by

7
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:53.920
me saying happy hump Day, at least not today. I

8
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:57.960
just mean it generally and authentically, Happy hump Day, Happy

9
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.600
Wednesdays that make you feel better, Happy Wednesday a little bit.

10
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:05.280
There's nothing loaded in the statement at all. But I

11
00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:08.000
do appreciate the fact that my words have given you

12
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:12.280
PTSD over the years. You've given me so much power,

13
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:16.079
and I appreciate it. And now I'm going to use

14
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:22.239
those words to bludgeon you with massive amounts of stupid today. Yeah,

15
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:27.400
and I can't think of a better way to start

16
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:34.640
the show than with this very uplifting story. Hang on,

17
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:41.319
let me see here already, here we go. There is

18
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:45.239
a man. There's almost always a man in this case.

19
00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:45.959
It's not Florida.

20
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:46.159
Though.

21
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:52.799
There are many times in my life where I see

22
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:55.000
a story and I think, yeah, this is a story

23
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:58.439
I need to share with my buddy tray because it's

24
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.879
going to be a doozy and that's this one. A

25
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:05.560
man with a lengthy criminal history is facing multiple felony

26
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:10.520
charges for allegedly shoplifting more than twenty thousand dollars worth

27
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.919
of merchandise from Walmart stores across North Georgia. His name

28
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:25.919
is Speedy Gonzales. Seriously, yeah, I know I should have

29
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:28.360
made this a believe it or not, but it was

30
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:32.560
too good to draw it out that much. Police. Gainesville

31
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:36.680
Police arrested forty year old Speedy Gonzales Yes that's his

32
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:40.360
real name, after identifying him on surveillance footage out of

33
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:45.039
Walmart in March in North Georgia. Speedy is accused of

34
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:49.919
carrying out a series of thefts at stores in Hall, Barrow, Gwynett, Habersham,

35
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:54.800
White and Lumpkin Counties. According to Gainesville Police, they say

36
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:58.360
he does have a criminal history in Gainesville, Georgia, and

37
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:02.759
again he's someone that we've dealt with numerous times. Investigators

38
00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:05.960
say Speedy Gonzales used a simple but effective method to

39
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:11.080
conceal his thefts. He allegedly stuffed high priced smaller items

40
00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:15.280
such as nicotine products, diabetic test strips, and gum into

41
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:19.000
larger containers like trash cans or mailboxes. Then at checkout

42
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:21.360
he would pay only for the large item and lead

43
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:24.879
the store with the concealed merchandise, something I think we

44
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:30.759
all could recognize as the trojan horse method. I mean,

45
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:33.800
something small inside the big thing to then carry out

46
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:35.000
your nefarious plan.

47
00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:39.039
To rack up up to twenty grand in theft by

48
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:41.360
that method. That's putting in some work.

49
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:43.919
It is that takes a lot of work. That's a

50
00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:47.280
lot of effort to steal that amount of goods from Walmart,

51
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:52.800
especially when so much of it's smaller now I think

52
00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:55.000
some of the nicotine products. This is sort of like

53
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.080
a supermarket suite the old game show that used to

54
00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:00.280
come on, and you would have a certain amount of

55
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:03.759
time to grab as much product as you could to

56
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.840
throw it in your grocery cart, and whoever ended up

57
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:09.879
with the highest grocery bill would win. That's kind of

58
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:11.800
like what this guy seemed like he was doing, except

59
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:12.840
he had never pay for any of them.

60
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:19.639
Poor Speedy. Kudos to his parents, though.

61
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:26.000
It's a serious sense of humor, and again this is

62
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:28.759
not speedy. Gonzalez first run in with the law that

63
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:31.680
came in twenty twenty when Gwinnet County arrested him for

64
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:35.040
stealing checks from a mailbox and attempting to use them

65
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:38.199
to purchase three thousand dollars worth of merchandise at home depot,

66
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:43.040
So clearly he is a retail menace. Following this most

67
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:46.319
recent arrest, Speedy Gonzales was initially booked into the Hall

68
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:50.519
County Jail, currently being held in Barrow County as authorities

69
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:56.240
across North Georgia work together to pursue additional charges. Police

70
00:04:56.319 --> 00:05:00.160
also say his accomplice, Slow Pope Rodriguez, is still.

71
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:06.480
Along the road but can't catch up to Speedy, but

72
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:07.519
they can't catch.

98
00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.079
two thy twenty five. Tray and I we both have

99
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:04.079
jobs here inside the Treehouse. We have our treehouse jobs.

100
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:07.160
I also have a job on the side as a

101
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:12.439
wedding efficiant, and Trey has his main slash side gig

102
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:17.240
as a bar manager, a high end bar manager. None

103
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:20.839
of that nasty stuff, only the good stuff for O

104
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:26.000
Man Trey. But if we were looking for a new job,

105
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:28.480
there are some things that we need to be aware of.

106
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:30.839
So that's what we're going to help you with right

107
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:36.040
now inside the treehouse. That is, if you are looking

108
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:39.160
for a new job, you need to listen up, because

109
00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:42.680
there are some new tactics that hiring managers are using

110
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:46.120
to decide whether or not you get the job. Okay,

111
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:49.959
one is the salt and pepper test. Have you heard

112
00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:52.120
of the salt and pepper test deciding whether or not

113
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:52.839
you get a job?

114
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:53.800
I have not.

115
00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:59.720
According to this test, HR managers have used to decide

116
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.199
whether or not to give someone a job based on

117
00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:06.399
whether or not they season their food before they've even

118
00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:09.000
tasted it. So, if you're at a job interview that's

119
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:12.480
happening over lunch or dinner or even breakfast, if you

120
00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:15.720
season your food before you've even tasted it, some HR

121
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:19.199
managers see that as a red flag and may not

122
00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:23.120
consider you for the job because of it. They have

123
00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:24.920
their own reasonings for it, but a lot of it

124
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:31.240
has to do with basically being impulsive, among other things.

125
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:33.559
But they just see it as it's a red flag

126
00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:36.200
and now you know, so if you're looking for a job,

127
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:39.480
beware the salt and pepper test. They even go so

128
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.399
far as to say that the test is not new,

129
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:45.960
but because of social media, people are kind of panicking

130
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:48.919
over this what they think to be is a new tactic.

131
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.960
One of the original stories that people heard about the

132
00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:55.120
salt and pepper test was two young men applying for

133
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:57.759
a job at a fortune five hundred company. One of

134
00:08:57.759 --> 00:09:00.159
the men went to Harvard, one went to Yale. They

135
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:04.000
were both exceptional in every way and numerous references to

136
00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:05.879
vouch for their character. They were both so good the

137
00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:08.480
CEO couldn't decide which one to hire, and since there

138
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:11.679
was only one job, only one could be hired. So

139
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:13.799
we invited him to dinner to see if he could

140
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:16.360
figure out which was the best candidate. When the food arrived,

141
00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:18.360
one of the men put salt and pepper on his food,

142
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:20.720
while the other man took a small bite of each

143
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:24.759
on his dish, then added salt and pepper the CEU.

144
00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:27.799
The CEO knew right then in there that the man

145
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:29.799
who tasted his food first was the one who should

146
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:31.559
get the job. Does that make sense to you?

147
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:37.000
Yeah, it does. I mean I understand the reasoning behind it.

148
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:40.279
I mean some people would just go, I know that

149
00:09:40.399 --> 00:09:43.559
food is never salted enough, and that's why they're doing it.

150
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.919
But yeah, in general, you should always try your food

151
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:48.480
first before you add salt, salt, or pepper to.

152
00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:52.600
It, unless, of course, you're able to check that disability

153
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:56.320
box and tell them. So you're excluding me because of

154
00:09:56.360 --> 00:09:58.639
my taste bud disability I had.

155
00:09:59.399 --> 00:09:59.480
It.

156
00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:01.120
Sounds like a dumb thing, but honest to God, I

157
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:04.360
think my brother in law has it because my brother

158
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:06.679
in law's Vietnamese, and so he grew up on eating

159
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:10.000
severely spicy food, so spicy that I think he's burned

160
00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:13.120
through a majority of his taste buds to where he

161
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:16.080
can't eat something and taste it unless it's through the

162
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:21.279
roof spicy. So like at Thanksgiving, he has a little

163
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:25.399
side dish of hot peppers. And I don't mean hot

164
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:28.639
peppers like white guy hot peppers, right, I mean like

165
00:10:29.720 --> 00:10:33.840
Asian dude hot peppers, and he'll have little bits of

166
00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:38.159
it on every single bite of turkey. I tried one

167
00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:42.200
bite once and I still won't touch his food. It's

168
00:10:42.200 --> 00:10:46.639
been years, So if you have a lunch interview, dinner interview,

169
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:50.240
beware the salt and pepper test. And look, finding a

170
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:52.440
job nowadays is hard enough without trying to think about

171
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:55.960
all the sneaky ways that you're being tested. But I

172
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:59.000
guess it's kind of the reality of things nowadays. It's

173
00:10:59.039 --> 00:11:01.679
not just so much whether or not you're qualified. It's

174
00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:04.799
how you eat your food.

175
00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:11.039
Yeah, it seems like a bit much, but it is

176
00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:11.600
what it is.

177
00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:15.600
There is another test. This one is the coffee test

178
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:19.120
to decide whether or not you get a job. Okay.

179
00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:24.000
In this this trick was described by an Australian boss

180
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:27.360
whose name is Trent Ennis, and he said he always

181
00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:30.159
takes prospective employees for a walk to the kitchen to

182
00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:32.960
the break room for a drink. He calls it the

183
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:35.200
coffee cup test, but it doesn't matter if it's coffee

184
00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:37.919
or not. It could be tee, water whatever. What he's

185
00:11:37.960 --> 00:11:41.240
looking for is what you do with your cup after

186
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:44.440
the interview. So what he says is we take the

187
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:46.799
drink back to the office, we have our interview, and

188
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:48.679
one of the things I'm always looking for at the

189
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.480
end of the interview is does the person doing the interview,

190
00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:55.120
want to take that empty cup back to the kitchen

191
00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:57.639
and clean it, or at least put it back in

192
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:01.399
the kitchen, He says. The reasoning is because it highlights

193
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.399
whether or not you're a team player, if you're considerate

194
00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:08.360
or not, and if you care about the small things.

195
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:11.120
Is this too much.

196
00:12:12.240 --> 00:12:17.480
That I understand because just service industry, you interview people,

197
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:21.480
you know, they get glass of water or whatever. It

198
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:26.919
is very telling on if they're going to clean up

199
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:30.080
after themselves or you know, if they're they realize that

200
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:32.840
if they leave that glass there, they're creating work for

201
00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:34.639
somebody else. So I get that one.

202
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.720
I remember. This reminds me. Early on in his career,

203
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:42.120
Dak Prescott did something like this on the sideline during

204
00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:43.720
a game he was on He was on the bench

205
00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:47.200
and he had just finished a cup of gatorade and

206
00:12:47.240 --> 00:12:49.840
he wadded it up and threw it over his shoulder

207
00:12:49.879 --> 00:12:53.720
towards the trash can. And this was all cut on television.

208
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:54.600
It got intercepted.

209
00:12:56.759 --> 00:12:59.600
No, this was early in his career. Uh, he did

210
00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:01.879
miss the trash can, which is about three feet wide.

211
00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:04.759
He missed the trash can, but instead of leaving it

212
00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:07.679
on the ground in a testament to Dak Prescott's character.

213
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:10.919
He stood up from the bench, walked over, picked up

214
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:15.399
the cup and threw it in the trash can, and

215
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:19.120
that says a lot about his character. Now, you're right, Trey.

216
00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:21.519
He still missed the initial throw and that should have

217
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:23.960
been a huge red flak for us as Cowboys fan.

218
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:28.840
But at least we know he's a good person. He

219
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:30.960
still had hit a wide open trash can with a

220
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:33.279
gatory cup, but he'll at least pick it up for

221
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:33.879
you after.

222
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:35.919
Did Zeke pop out when he threw the trash can

223
00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:36.919
or the cup in?

224
00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:41.759
He tried, but he got hurt.

225
00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:50.519

The RMS Treehouse Listeners Foundation exists to help the families

231
00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:14.679
of fallen DFW police officers and firefighters killed in the

232
00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:17.440
line of duty, and we've been very fortunate over the

233
00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:21.000
years to partner with some outstanding companies wanting to help,

234
00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:24.440
and today we get to add Cook DFW's name to

235
00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:28.080
that list of excellent sponsors to the foundation because Daniel,

236
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:29.759
you and your wife Carrie have said, you know what,

237
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:32.039
we love our community and we want to do something

238
00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:34.639
to give back to our first responders in DFW.

239
00:14:34.799 --> 00:14:38.200
Right, Dan, That's absolutely correct, and you know, truth be known,

240
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:42.440
Carrie has given to the foundation for quite so many years.

241
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:45.240
But now at a company level, I think we are

242
00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:49.720
wanting to definitely you know, beef that up and start

243
00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:53.200
giving back to the foundation. And it's unfortunately, this is

244
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:56.000
a foundation nobody wants to have to donate to, but

245
00:14:56.080 --> 00:14:58.600
it's the real world is that these things do happen,

246
00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:02.799
and it's the type of foundation that you don't want around,

247
00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:05.480
but you definitely want it to be, you know, available

248
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:08.120
to the families that need it. And so over the

249
00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:10.799
next couple of months, you know, a portion of all

250
00:15:10.840 --> 00:15:14.399

251
00:15:14.480 --> 00:15:16.159
call in and let us know that they heard about

252
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.480
you on the show, we're going to be donating to

253
00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:21.799
the RMS Tree House Listeners Foundation and making sure that

00:15:21.840 --> 00:15:26.440
we can keep that very stable in the accounting side

255
00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:29.960
and have funds available that when the families need it

256
00:15:29.960 --> 00:15:32.720
it's going to be there. So we're very fortunate to

be a part of the organization and we look forward

258
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:37.840

278
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:45.720
April eighth, two thy twenty five. We were just talking

279
00:16:45.720 --> 00:16:48.639
about some of the tests that hiring managers will put

280
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:54.879
prospective employees through, which I don't know. I've had interviews before,

281
00:16:54.960 --> 00:16:58.039
but in my recent work history, you know, with radio stuff,

282
00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:00.720
it hasn't been so much about how you do in

283
00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.200
an interview or whether or not there's an interview. It's

284
00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:07.160
just whether or not the person you're meeting with knows

285
00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:10.759
you already and someone's already recommended you for a job.

286
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:13.880
Like the previous two radio jobs I had, it wasn't

287
00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:16.799
even an interview. It was more of a formality to

288
00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:21.400
come in and do paperwork because it was already happening. Yeah,

289
00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:24.839
that being said, in my younger career, I thought I

290
00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:26.960
was pretty good at doing job interviews. How about you,

291
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.920
Dre You've had to do them more recently, with you know,

292
00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:34.440
actual interview questions and things.

293
00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:38.799
I think I've always done pretty well. I've try not

294
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:45.400
to overthink it. I stories like that would would if

295
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:47.200
I really thought about them too much, then I would

296
00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:51.720
probably really hurt myself and trying to overanalyze everything I

297
00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:55.680
said and did I mean, But I honestly one of

298
00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:58.920
the biggest things, especially in this day and age, when

299
00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:02.640
I interview people. Number one thing, do they show up

300
00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:03.000
on time?

301
00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:04.640
Yes?

302
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:11.640
And it seems to us like that would just be

303
00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:15.640
a given and it would be the exception that someone

304
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:18.640
show up late to an interview. But I kind of

305
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:21.759
get the idea that's not the case with the people

306
00:18:21.839 --> 00:18:22.519
you've interviewed.

307
00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:28.240
No, it's it's especially not picking on gen Z, but

308
00:18:28.279 --> 00:18:33.440
they they are not good about being on time.

309
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:36.440
It's not their fault. Tree they can't read clocks.

310
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:41.799
Yeah, that is true, but they can just ask Siri

311
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:43.440
to set them on alarm.

312
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:44.880
That is true.

313
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:47.000
That is true. There does need to be a fair

314
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:51.559
amount of accountability. Now. Part of the reason I bring

315
00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:54.079
this up is because I'm always fascinated by people that

316
00:18:54.160 --> 00:18:59.119
work in HR. My previous job at iHeartRadio, I dealt

317
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:01.440
with HR on a on a few occasions, not because

318
00:19:01.480 --> 00:19:06.119
I was in trouble, but you know, things happen sometimes

319
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:10.640
you have to answer questions. But an HR lady has

320
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:13.680
gone viral. A woman who works in HR has gone

321
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:16.880
viral for listing some of the craziest things that she's

322
00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:20.960
had to fire people for. You want to hear a couple.

323
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:23.359
I would love to all. Right, here we go.

324
00:19:24.839 --> 00:19:27.920
So here is this HR lady who's gone viral sharing

325
00:19:28.119 --> 00:19:30.680
some of the crazy things that she's had to fire

326
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:31.559
people for.

327
00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:34.240
The first guy was napping in his car from ten

328
00:19:34.279 --> 00:19:37.359
am till almost one every single day. He had been

329
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:39.480
doing this for like four months straight. But I ended

330
00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:42.079
up firing him by knocking on his door because we

331
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:43.440
were trying to find him and he was a wall

332
00:19:43.519 --> 00:19:45.359
and he opened the door and he was so shocked

333
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:47.319
and he could not believe that he was getting fired

334
00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:49.720
for sleeping three hours every single day.

335
00:19:50.720 --> 00:19:53.319
Real quick. I wouldn't mind defending this guy only because

336
00:19:53.359 --> 00:19:56.240
I'm curious. Was he really not doing his job or

337
00:19:56.279 --> 00:19:59.039
was he doing so much work between nine am and

338
00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:02.240
ten am that he was tired and needed to go sleep.

339
00:20:02.359 --> 00:20:03.920
So maybe he got all his work done, he was

340
00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:05.279
just you know, napping in the middle of the day.

341
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:09.440
Yeah, I'm sure that was it. He was so productive

342
00:20:09.480 --> 00:20:11.680
in one hour that, yeah, he.

343
00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:16.480
Needed to sleep for three Yeah. Here's here's another example

344
00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:18.359
of a reason she had to fire somebody.

345
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:21.400
An employee had just gotten a verbal warning so not

346
00:20:21.480 --> 00:20:24.599
even written anything about stealing company supplies because he was

347
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:27.480
loading cases of toilet paper into his vehicle. He got

348
00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:29.799
really upset and went straight into We had this big

349
00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:32.839
glass meeting room where all the execs for meeting turned around,

350
00:20:32.920 --> 00:20:36.559
dropped his pants and stuck his butt against the window.

351
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:40.799
I was about to say, I've done some of these

352
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:43.799
things that she's talking about. I have stolen supplies from

353
00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:46.960
work and taken them home from my personal use. I'd

354
00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:48.680
see what else? What was the first thing she mentioned?

355
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:51.759
The sleeping. I've slept at work before. Now again, working

356
00:20:51.839 --> 00:20:54.160
in radio and entertainment, things we can get away with more.

357
00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:54.400
You can.

358
00:20:54.559 --> 00:20:57.119
Like I had an office and there were times where

359
00:20:57.119 --> 00:20:59.119
I didn't feel good, so I would close the door,

360
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:01.640
lock it, turn the line off, and take a little

361
00:21:01.640 --> 00:21:02.160
power nap.

362
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:05.599
Well, I think a power nap is one thing. Three

363
00:21:05.640 --> 00:21:08.319
hour three hour sleep is totally different.

364
00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:11.079
Yeah, I never slept through the job.

365
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:11.720
You know.

366
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:14.039
It's like if we were on the air at three o'clock,

367
00:21:14.039 --> 00:21:16.279
I might sleep till about two forty five, then get

368
00:21:16.359 --> 00:21:19.000
up and do my thing. I wouldn't sleep till four.

369
00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:23.880
I've also never mooned. I've never mooned everybody in the

370
00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:26.440
conference room. So that's one thing I haven't done that

371
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:31.000
she mentioned there. But as I go through the as

372
00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:35.039
I go through my work history, my work experience, and

373
00:21:35.079 --> 00:21:37.279
I think about the people that I've worked with over

374
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:39.720
the years, things that they've done, things that I've done.

375
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:42.799
Some of these things that she's going viral for really

376
00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:45.079
aren't that crazy to me?

377
00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:47.839
I mean, no, there's no firearms involved.

378
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:49.240
There's no firearms involved.

379
00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:49.640
You're right.

380
00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:52.680
You know what is crazy, though? Peeing in the corner,

381
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:56.400
not once, but twice and not getting fired, that's crazy.

382
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:03.960
Calling management idiots and not getting fired. That's crazy. Pissing

383
00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.160
off clients and not getting fired. I think that would count.

384
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:10.759
Cutting your own internet line when working remotely and not

385
00:22:10.920 --> 00:22:13.279
getting fired. That's crazy.

386
00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:14.720
It's crazy.

387
00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:19.160
Not showing up for eight months straight and not getting fired.

388
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:22.000
That's sleeping through a month of work.

389
00:22:24.319 --> 00:22:26.079
He had the best job in the world and he

390
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:27.200
ruined it by dying.

404
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:26.880
April eighth, twenty twenty five. Happy hump Day with no

405
00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:30.680
loaded sentiment behind it whatsoever. Just happy Wednesday. See Trey,

406
00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:38.000
there's nothing loaded in there. You're fine. Sure, we've got

407
00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:43.319
to work on our trust issues. You know what you need?

408
00:23:43.680 --> 00:23:46.839
You need an emotional support animal. Maybe that'll help you

409
00:23:46.920 --> 00:23:50.920
with your PTSD and dealing with me. Over the twenty

410
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:56.720
years we've known each other. Would Daisy or chihuahua? Would

411
00:23:56.799 --> 00:23:59.920
she do you have emotional support papers on her? Or

412
00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:01.880
do you just hold her up? And everyone just kind

413
00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:04.279
of says, yeah, okay, go ahead, because she's that adorable.

414
00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:08.079
I've never had anyone really give me any grief about her.

415
00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:12.079
I feel like Daisy is everyone's emotional support chihuahua.

416
00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:16.079
Yeah, if Daisy doesn't bring a smile to your face

417
00:24:16.119 --> 00:24:17.559
and there's just something wrong.

418
00:24:17.359 --> 00:24:20.039
With you that is the ultimate litmus test.

419
00:24:20.039 --> 00:24:20.440
You're right.

420
00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:25.960
If you don't smile when you see Daisy, there's something

421
00:24:26.039 --> 00:24:27.279
severely wrong with you.

422
00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:30.880
Yeah, or I'll say this. Over the years, she has

423
00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:34.000
been one hundred percent. The very few people she's ever

424
00:24:34.039 --> 00:24:38.240
coming across she did not like. They turned out to

425
00:24:38.279 --> 00:24:39.000
not be good people.

426
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:40.759
Interesting.

427
00:24:41.400 --> 00:24:41.920
Who was it?

428
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:43.279
Can you tell me? Do I know who it was?

429
00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:43.599
Now?

430
00:24:43.640 --> 00:24:45.720
You don't know any of them? All right? Damn it?

431
00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:46.119
All right?

432
00:24:46.880 --> 00:24:48.599
Well, it's good to know that there actually are people

433
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:50.480
out there, so it really does work as an actual

434
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:58.359
red flag test. Speaking of emotional support animals and Nevada

435
00:24:58.440 --> 00:25:04.279
man was a avdaman got in trouble recently because of

436
00:25:04.319 --> 00:25:13.720
his emotional support tigers. Yeah, you heard that correctly. A

437
00:25:13.720 --> 00:25:18.839
avda man was arrested after officials seized seven tigers that

438
00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:30.000
he claimed as his emotional support tigers. I would have

439
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:34.880
a difficult time trying to think of a worse animal

440
00:25:35.160 --> 00:25:38.039
to have as an emotional support animal than a tiger.

441
00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:43.960
Maybe emotional support moose. I mean, because if you're talking

442
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:48.559
about whether it's dangerous or just completely ridiculous, I mean,

443
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:50.240
there's you're not You're going to be hard pressed to

444
00:25:50.240 --> 00:25:52.039
find something dumber than a tiger.

445
00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:56.640
Well, I really feel like that an emotional support cat

446
00:25:56.680 --> 00:26:04.200
of any type is an oxymoron at best, because they

447
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:07.000
don't care about your feelings. Oh, they're not here to

448
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:08.160
support your emotions.

449
00:26:08.680 --> 00:26:14.200
No, animal welfare workers recovered the tigers in cages at

450
00:26:14.319 --> 00:26:18.960
Pa Rump, the home of longtime big cat handler Carl Mitchell,

451
00:26:19.079 --> 00:26:23.000
last Wednesday. Pa Rump is a real town and it's

452
00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:26.480
just outside Death Valley National Park. Now. Mister Mitchell claimed

453
00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:29.119
he had obtained six of the seven large cats from

454
00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:33.960
incarcerated zoo keeper Joseph Allen Maldonado. And if that name

455
00:26:34.039 --> 00:26:36.440
sounds familiar to you, that's because he's better known as

456
00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:40.960
Joe Exotic from the Netflix Docuseriies the Tiger King that

457
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:42.759
was so popular during the pandemic.

458
00:26:44.519 --> 00:26:47.680
You know, I knew as you're reading the story, I'm like,

459
00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:51.119
that's Tiger King has got to be tied in somewhere

460
00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:51.440
to this.

461
00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:56.920
Now, here's an interesting twist, as if keeping seven emotional

462
00:26:56.920 --> 00:27:01.079
support tigers on your property, on your property legally in

463
00:27:01.160 --> 00:27:06.880
Nevada wasn't a twist enough. Joe Exotic himself has come

464
00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:10.720
out publicly to denounce any involvement with this man and

465
00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:17.240
his tigers from jail at the Federal Medical Facility in

466
00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:23.839
Fort Worth. Joe Exotic denied giving anyone tigers. He said,

467
00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:26.400
you need to quit slandering me on television before you

468
00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:29.599
do your research. None of these tigers came from me,

469
00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:32.799
he said. This is what he released on X slash Twitter.

470
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:35.960
He says, until you want a real story, leave my

471
00:27:36.279 --> 00:27:38.759
name out of it. The sixty two year old Kansas

472
00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:41.279
native is currently serving a twenty one year sentence at

473
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:43.920
the Federal Medical Facility in Fort Worth. In twenty nineteen,

474
00:27:43.960 --> 00:27:46.519
he was convicted of nineteen counts of wildlife crimes and

475
00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:49.079
two counts relating to a murder for higher case of

476
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:55.599
rival zoo operator Carol Baskin. So seven tigers seized from

477
00:27:55.599 --> 00:27:59.920
a man in Parumph, Nevada. He claims they were emotion

478
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:02.759
will support tigers he got from Joe Exotic. Joe Exotic,

479
00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:08.279
from federal prison publicly states, nuh uh, this has nothing

480
00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:08.920
to do with me.

481
00:28:10.119 --> 00:28:15.200
Why does a prisoner have an X account?

482
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:20.880
Great question? Great question? Why is he tweeting yea or

483
00:28:20.920 --> 00:28:23.400
ex singer whatever it is that that Elon calls it

484
00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:28.279
from his platform? But yeah, no, he's he says no, no, no,

485
00:28:28.319 --> 00:28:30.039
these are these have nothing to do with me. I

486
00:28:30.119 --> 00:28:33.880
want nothing. This is no connection to me whatsoever, vehemently

487
00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:38.279
denying it. I'm not sure he denied the murder for

488
00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:42.119
higher plot against Carol is as hard as he's denying this,

489
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:44.759
which would explain the reason why he's in jail for

490
00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:47.960
twenty one years. But again, I'm gonna I'm gonna go

491
00:28:47.960 --> 00:28:51.960
back to my original point. Of all the animals on

492
00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:56.920
this planet, this man chose tigers to be his emotional

493
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:01.400
support animals. I mean, there, that's that's a level of

494
00:29:01.480 --> 00:29:03.720
ridiculous that even you and I tray here inside the

495
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:06.720
Treehouse can respect and appreciate.

496
00:29:08.319 --> 00:29:12.839
Again, I mean, if you're looking for emotional support from

497
00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:17.680

00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:22.279
hump day with some what what are you looking at

511
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:22.559
me like that?

512
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:29.200
For today's the ninth? Is it? Yeah?

513
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:31.519
Oh man, I've been saying the wrong date all day.

514
00:30:32.920 --> 00:30:37.440
Thanks for catching it five segments in. You know, all right,

515
00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:44.440
today is Wednesday, April ninth, twenty twenty five. So gen

516
00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:47.440
Z can't read clocks and me, as gen X, I

517
00:30:47.440 --> 00:30:48.319
can't read a calendar.

518
00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:51.359
You're of an age. Now you just blame it on

519
00:30:51.400 --> 00:30:52.000
your I sight.

520
00:30:54.519 --> 00:30:57.200
All right, it's because of my eyes, that's the problem.

521
00:30:58.160 --> 00:31:02.839
Let's celebrate today with some birthdays. Wednesday April ninth, two

522
00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:08.200
thy twenty five. He played Brand Stark on Game of Thrones.

523
00:31:08.440 --> 00:31:15.519
His actual name is Isaac Hempstead. Right, he's twenty six today, Trey.

524
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:17.359
You said you watched what was it the first season

525
00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:21.839
to Game of Thrones? But no more. Yeah, there's I

526
00:31:21.839 --> 00:31:23.519
don't know what account does it, but I've seen a

527
00:31:23.559 --> 00:31:29.400
few videos online where someone will take from some AI

528
00:31:29.559 --> 00:31:33.799
platform they'll take an established show and turn it on

529
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:39.440
its head, and someone did that with Game of Thrones.

530
00:31:39.799 --> 00:31:43.519
They did an AI generated Game of Thrones intro, but

531
00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:47.920
as like a like a sitcom, I think, and so

532
00:31:47.960 --> 00:31:50.519
it had all the AI generated images of all the

533
00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:55.440
characters in their faces. It was really really good. And actually,

534
00:31:55.720 --> 00:31:59.640
because Game of Thrones is so high drama, high stakes,

535
00:31:59.680 --> 00:32:03.799
people dying left and right, it's extremely gory and violent

536
00:32:04.039 --> 00:32:07.559
and just not kid friendly whatsoever. So taking that show

537
00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:11.079
and making it look like a sitcom pretty funny, especially

538
00:32:11.119 --> 00:32:12.960
knowing some of the storylines that happened with some of

539
00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:15.240
those people. So if you ever get a chance to

540
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:17.960
see some of those watch them. They're very very good.

541
00:32:18.839 --> 00:32:22.559
Other birthdays today, El Fanning turns twenty seven. That is

542
00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:27.759
Dakota Fanning's younger sister. Elle Fanning is Princess Aurora on

543
00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:31.960
Maleficent and the sequel, and she's also Katherine the Great

544
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:35.880
on Hulu's The Great. Elle Fanning turns twenty seven today.

545
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.119
Stone faced Kristin Stewart is thirty five. She's probably best

546
00:32:42.160 --> 00:32:45.960
known as what's her name in the Twilight movies.

547
00:32:49.160 --> 00:32:50.319
We did this last time?

548
00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:51.119
Did we?

549
00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:51.799
Yeah?

550
00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:53.240
We can never remember.

551
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:58.119
Her character Belle. She played bell or Bella. Is that

552
00:32:58.160 --> 00:32:59.160
my dog's name, Bella?

553
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:00.319
Bella?

554
00:33:01.039 --> 00:33:06.400
Now I regret naming my dog Bella anyway. Kristen Stewart,

555
00:33:06.440 --> 00:33:10.160
the actress, is thirty five. Waitn me double check, yeah,

556
00:33:10.200 --> 00:33:12.960
thirty five today. Christin Stewart thirty five today. There was

557
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:14.680
another movie she was in. I can't remember the name

558
00:33:14.720 --> 00:33:15.799
of it and didn't see it, and I don't think

559
00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:19.200
anybody else did. Where it was her in some sort

560
00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:21.240
of research facility at the bottom of the ocean and

561
00:33:21.240 --> 00:33:24.400
a scary monster thing is happening. I don't know about you,

562
00:33:24.440 --> 00:33:28.000
but I've seen that. I've seen a version of that

563
00:33:28.079 --> 00:33:32.039
movie no less than three times, and Hollywood seems to

564
00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:34.759
revisit that trope on a pretty regular basis.

565
00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:39.960
All right, speaking of complete sidebar, because the number one

566
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:43.559
of those movies for me, it's kind of Abyss.

567
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:46.359
Okay, Number two for me is Leviathan.

568
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:52.599
I think. Okay, but have you ever read how awful

569
00:33:52.680 --> 00:33:55.759
shooting The Abyss was like, to the point where the

570
00:33:55.839 --> 00:33:57.440
cast will not talk about it.

571
00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:01.000
Yeah, I'm not sure if I knew this? So this

572
00:34:01.079 --> 00:34:03.079
was this was James Cameron directed The Abyss?

573
00:34:03.119 --> 00:34:09.519
Right, I think so? But uh, oh, what's his name?

574
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:14.519
Played Ed Harris, like nearly died because of one of

575
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:17.400
the swimming scenes and holding his breath too long, and

576
00:34:17.519 --> 00:34:22.079
how cold and miserable it was, and like, evidently that

577
00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:26.360
scarred that cast for life.

578
00:34:26.760 --> 00:34:31.159
That really speaks volumes to me, because Ed Harris is

579
00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:35.079
no wimpy man. That is a that is a man's man.

580
00:34:35.239 --> 00:34:39.199
He is a manly actor. It's it's it's Ed freaking Harris.

581
00:34:39.760 --> 00:34:42.639
So if Ed Harris won't talk about it it was

582
00:34:42.679 --> 00:34:47.519
that bad and he had issues with things on the set,

583
00:34:47.559 --> 00:34:48.920
then you know it must have been bad.

584
00:34:49.440 --> 00:34:51.840
If you ever want it. It's an interesting read to

585
00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:55.960
go go read the like and it's just bits and

586
00:34:55.960 --> 00:34:58.800
pieces because again the cast really won't talk about it,

587
00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:02.519
but evidently filming that movie was quite traumatic.

588
00:35:03.000 --> 00:35:06.960
Interesting And again we're talking about James Cameron who directed

589
00:35:07.199 --> 00:35:11.440
The Abyss, and it seems I guess it kind of

590
00:35:11.440 --> 00:35:13.039
makes sense. I mean, you're talking about a guy that

591
00:35:13.159 --> 00:35:15.800
spent a lot of his life at the bottom of

592
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:19.039
the ocean floor, so maybe that that's where he feels

593
00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:23.119
most comfortable, away from people and on the bottom of

594
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:23.599
the ocean.

595
00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:26.599
I mean, I can relate to the man, but you

596
00:35:26.599 --> 00:35:29.039
don't have to kill other people that do it, And

597
00:35:29.199 --> 00:35:31.119
DiCaprio would have died if that was the case.

598
00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:32.679
Oh, yeah, that is very true.

599
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:33.239
Yeah.

600
00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:34.800
But yeah, if you show up to work and you're

601
00:35:34.800 --> 00:35:36.719
looking around at all the people that you're in charge

602
00:35:36.760 --> 00:35:38.400
of that day and say, you know what, after this

603
00:35:38.480 --> 00:35:40.559
is done, I think I'm going to take a vacation

604
00:35:41.199 --> 00:35:43.880
two miles to the bottom of the ocean floor just

605
00:35:43.880 --> 00:35:46.840
to look for stuff. I think that says some things

606
00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:50.480
about you. Yeah, it says some things about us that

607
00:35:50.519 --> 00:35:53.119
we think that. What's it like this time of year?

608
00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:56.800
Do they have an all inclusive plan?

00:37:02.039 --> 00:37:05.360
He's trade turn home Today is still Wednesday, April ninth,

623
00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:09.880
twenty twenty five, now that I've got that correct. There

624
00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:12.159
was a really, really fun story that happened the other day,

625
00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:16.119
fun for us, not necessarily for the people involved in it.

626
00:37:16.960 --> 00:37:20.280
And yeah, it happened in Florida. A man flipped out

627
00:37:20.320 --> 00:37:25.000
after being denied a free refill at a kid's lemonade stand.

628
00:37:26.000 --> 00:37:29.760
I mean, come on. A forty five year old man

629
00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:33.480
in Florida named Stephen Cussomano stopped at a kid's lemonade

630
00:37:33.480 --> 00:37:37.280
stand on Tuesday last week. He bought one glass of lemonade,

631
00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:40.559
downed it, and then got mad when they wouldn't give

632
00:37:40.639 --> 00:37:43.599
him a free refill. There was an adult woman at

633
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:47.039
the stand with several of these kids, and Stephen, the suspect,

634
00:37:47.280 --> 00:37:50.960
confronted her and grabbed her by the wrist aggressively, according

635
00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:53.119
to the police report, and was standing in a fighting

636
00:37:53.199 --> 00:37:56.480
stance threatening to beat her up. He eventually walked away

637
00:37:56.599 --> 00:37:59.000
and the woman called the police. They tracked him down

638
00:37:59.039 --> 00:38:03.159
and arrested him. He confirmed the woman's story, but he

639
00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:07.039
felt justified because he said he grabbed her because she

640
00:38:07.719 --> 00:38:10.920
was talking crap to him. He didn't use the word crap,

641
00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:13.639
he said something else, But he felt justified that since

642
00:38:13.679 --> 00:38:16.159
she was speaking all sorts of things to him, that

643
00:38:16.239 --> 00:38:18.360
he was allowed to grab her in an aggressive manner

644
00:38:18.360 --> 00:38:20.960
and get into a fighting stance and threatened to beat

645
00:38:20.960 --> 00:38:23.599
her up in front of a bunch of kids after

646
00:38:23.639 --> 00:38:26.960
being denied a free refill at the kid's lemonade stand.

647
00:38:29.119 --> 00:38:31.199
Probably paid like a dollar for a glass of lemonade,

648
00:38:31.239 --> 00:38:33.159
and then he added his free refills.

649
00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:39.440
Yep, okay, the two things. Number one, What was in

650
00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:43.840
that lemonade? I mean that sounds good. If you're willing

651
00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:46.559
to fight people, If you're willing to fight children for

652
00:38:47.400 --> 00:38:50.159
a free refill, that's got to be some good lemonade.

653
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:56.119
Yeah. Well, I mean, is it because it was that

654
00:38:56.199 --> 00:38:57.719
good when you just paid for the refill?

655
00:38:58.760 --> 00:39:01.559
Maybe? Unless there's some of lemonade tariff going on that

656
00:39:01.599 --> 00:39:07.280
I'm not aware of driving up the cost of lemonade. Look,

657
00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:09.639
if it's forty five dollars for a cup of lemonade,

658
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:11.760
I can understand demanding a free refill.

659
00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:12.519
Fair enough.

660
00:39:12.599 --> 00:39:15.880
Yeah, but you're right if it's a dollar and it's

661
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:19.000
just these little kids, you know, doing their kid lemonade

662
00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:24.199
stand Come on, man, yeah, I mean I don't know

663
00:39:24.239 --> 00:39:29.280
if I don't know if kids lemonade stands do shot specials. Yeah,

664
00:39:29.320 --> 00:39:32.199
although although if they did, Florida would be the place.

665
00:39:33.679 --> 00:39:38.840
Oh yeah, there'd be a line. Yeah, that's just go Hey,

666
00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:42.880
would you do that at a waffle house? I don't

667
00:39:42.880 --> 00:39:46.480
think so. Oh here's the test, Trey.

668
00:39:46.599 --> 00:39:49.199
You've just touched on something new. Because when I was

669
00:39:49.239 --> 00:39:52.239
a kid, it was it was the wristband? What would

670
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:52.920
Jesus do?

671
00:39:53.159 --> 00:39:53.440
Test?

672
00:39:53.800 --> 00:39:57.159
So I like the new twenty first century version of

673
00:39:57.199 --> 00:39:59.719
it is, would you do this at a waffle house?

674
00:40:03.079 --> 00:40:05.760
Let that be the barometer by which you live your life.

675
00:40:06.519 --> 00:40:09.519
Go lay hands on the waffle house person, see what happens.

676
00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:14.440
Did you ever hear the story about the man that

677
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:21.159
laid hands on the waffle house cook? No you haven't. Okay,

678
00:40:21.159 --> 00:40:29.280
I think we should get some wristbands made. For all

679
00:40:29.320 --> 00:40:31.480
things Treehouse go to Treehouse on Air dot com. Be

680
00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:33.440
sure to find and follow us on social media. For

681
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:35.760
the show, it's at Treehouse on Air. For me, it's

682
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:38.440
at the Dan O'Malley. For Trey, it's at Trede Trent

683
00:40:38.639 --> 00:40:42.519
Home one. We'll see you tomorrow, right back here inside

684
00:40:42.559 --> 00:40:43.159
