00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:24.600
It is time believe your worries outside and laugh with
2
00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:28.719
us inside the treehouse. I'm Dan, O'Malley along with Trey Trenholm,
3
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:35.399
Raj Sharma, and Jerry called well, today is Fray Day,
4
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:41.200
June sixth, twenty twenty five. We are a tree house divided. Today.
5
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:45.240
Trey and Jerry have worn their black shirts, while Raj
6
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:49.359
and I have decided to go for the white look.
7
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:53.719
So we're ready for our diddy party. But Trey and
8
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:56.079
Jerry are mourning the fact they never got invited.
9
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:02.600
I'm good, yeah, I think honestly, we're all better off.
10
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:05.640
Welcome inside the treehouse at the end of the week,
11
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:07.920
hopefully not the end of your rope, and if you
12
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:10.640
are well, just sent it up just a hair. We'll
13
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:13.359
make it better. And we're going to make this day
14
00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:16.079
better for you, whether it was good or bad, whether
15
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:18.760
the week was good or bad, by starting with something
16
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:30.599
truly celebratory. Sorry, just knowing what Raja's reaction is going
17
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:31.920
to be has me already happy.
18
00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:34.879
Ah.
19
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:38.560
San Antonio is known for the Alamo and a number
20
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:42.840
of other things, but today it's known for drunk seventh graders.
21
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:50.719
Was unexpected, But here we are, I think less unexpected
22
00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:53.560
now than in the past. But yes, yeah.
23
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:56.000
What was meant to be an end of the year
24
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:59.680
treat turned into a serious mistake at a San Antonio
25
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:05.760
middle school after a teacher unknowingly handed out alcoholic beverages
26
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:11.199
to her students. Northside Independent School District confirms a special
27
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:22.199
ed teacher, Oh no, yes, at Peace Middle School brought
28
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:27.439
seven cans of hard mountain dew Baha blast that's an
29
00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:32.039
alcoholic drink with five percent alcohol content, and distributed them
30
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:36.439
to students in three different classes during a celebration on
31
00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:39.280
the last day of school. And I'll be honest with you,
32
00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:44.719
what last day of school celebration is complete without a
33
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:48.719
hard mountain dew Baja blast. In other news, and this
34
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:52.840
is new to me, Mountain dew Baja blast now comes
35
00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:58.280
with booze. My Friday is made, My weekend is made.
36
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:01.319
My week is made. It's at the beginning of June.
37
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:05.159
The whole month is made. My wife's birthday is Sunday,
38
00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:07.199
and I know what I'm gonna get her for her
39
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:13.639
birthday slash my fun day. Oh yeah, boozy mountain dew.
40
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:17.639
Oh yeah, five percent booze, double the caffeine. What could
41
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:18.280
go wrong?
42
00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:19.840
Oh?
43
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.000
Look four Loco had for Loco had his moment in
44
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:28.199
the sun. But now yeah, hard Mountain Dew is getting
45
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:28.680
its time.
46
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.599
And I like how they're both like Mexican themed, like
47
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:37.159
poor Loco Bob last in San Antonio. Come on, guys, like,
48
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:40.680
what are we doing? Just a giant stereotype at this point?
49
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:47.280
Oh god, this is fantastic. Five students consumed the drinks,
50
00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:51.439
including a seventh grader with asthma, who who later became
51
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:56.800
drowsy and confused. His dad, Aaron, says he wasn't notified
52
00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:00.560
until four fifteen in the afternoon, hours after the incident
53
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:04.759
occurred during third period. The dad said, we couldn't believe it.
54
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:08.439
We were like, what the hell? I asked, since when
55
00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:11.719
did Mountain Dew start selling booze with the Baja blast?
56
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:13.719
Just kidding us, know what? He said? He was still
57
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:17.680
he was still incredulous about it. He said, what time
58
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:21.480
did this start? They said between ten thirty and eleven,
59
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:24.040
And he said, that was really confusing to me. Why
60
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:29.160
wait so long to call? Waiting?
61
00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:32.759
The dad says, oun what waiting for the kiddos to
62
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:33.360
sober up?
63
00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:36.519
Yeah, couldn't remember his number, that's right.
64
00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:40.600
The dad says his son drank nearly half of a
65
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:45.079
yellow pineapple flavored can, unaware it was alcoholic. He believes
66
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:48.079
a combination of the beverage and cough medicine taken earlier
67
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:49.879
in the day contributed to his son.
68
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:54.240
Simptons, this kid, excellence, kid excellent, did scissor.
69
00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:55.879
To do.
70
00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:59.000
I'm sorry, but that's a good last day of school
71
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:06.800
or life. I mean, hell, my last day is seventh grade.
72
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:09.439
We went to Arby's to get the five for five deal.
73
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:11.759
This kid got you know, five percent alcohol.
74
00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:14.000
Well, in my last day of school, we just watched
75
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:19.120
Where the Red Fern Grows. Wow, old Yeller, Good God.
76
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:24.079
That's the saddest name of school it is. We had
77
00:05:24.120 --> 00:05:26.639
like shaving cream fights like that was that was fun.
78
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:30.399
We did that, but nobody got Nobody got sauce and
79
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:35.120
did it well, at least not the kids, especially the
80
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:39.959
special lead kids. We don't want them all boozy and
81
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:41.800
running about.
82
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:45.000
We don't need him drunk and hopped up on caffeine.
83
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:49.639
Oh man. The dad did say that his son told
84
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:51.959
him it tasted a little different, but he doesn't drink
85
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:54.560
soda often, so he didn't think much of it. He
86
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:57.600
also doesn't drink five percent alcohol by volume off and so.
87
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:00.680
The son did say it tastes a lot like your coffee.
88
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:07.399
Dad, I really am excited to go to the store
89
00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:12.360
today to go find some hard mountain dew Baja Blast.
90
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:19.240
Oh my god, who sells it? I've never seen angels.
91
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:25.800
Angels sell that. I realized it's it's got to be
92
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:29.639
difficult for Trey because here I am putting alcohol on
93
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:34.680
a pedestal. But but it's Baja Blast with booze.
94
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:39.879
I would I'll be most curious to hear your review
95
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:42.720
of it after about four of them.
96
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:45.000
Yeah, after I'm.
97
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:48.519
About twenty percent hard mountain Dew Baja Blast, that's when
98
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:50.399
I'll That's when I'll let you know what I think.
99
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:54.160
Yeah, I just want to boozed up, caffeined out Dan
100
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:55.040
to do the next show.
101
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:57.199
Yeah, that's all we need.
102
00:06:57.319 --> 00:06:59.759
I feel like bust out, bust out the helmet for
103
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:00.199
Dan Man.
104
00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:04.639
He's taking show notes with the big pencil.
105
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:10.240
For the record, I've done both those things would not
106
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.120
be groundbreaking, would not be a first.
107
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:17.160
Yeah, it'll be a first for me to witness. I
108
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:18.560
think that would be.
109
00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:20.279
Yeah.
110
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:24.720
I don't know where you where you find the Baha
111
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.839
Blast hard mountain Dew.
112
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:29.160
I don't know where that I'm just going to do.
113
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:30.199
I don't know where that would be.
114
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:31.879
Sold the Google near Me search.
115
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:34.160
It's either going to be a.
116
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:36.000
Yeah.
117
00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:37.720
I was about to say, my tom thumb usually has
118
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:38.839
that cool stuff like that?
119
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:44.680
Is it is a cool jake? Have you had like
120
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:46.000
just regular baha blast?
121
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:49.800
There's no there's even a variety pack of mountain dew.
122
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:55.199
Harts Seltzer's God, I just got hard hearing that.
123
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:02.399
And he didn't mean hard of hearing, No, he did not.
124
00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:06.279
Wow. I mean we know that pineapple is one flavor
125
00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:07.800
because that's what the seventh grader got.
126
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:14.920
Yeah, well, yeah, it's a baha blast bahah blast pineapple. Uh,
127
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:19.720
it's like punch and lingo.

00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:21.879
Is there a hard Mountain dewke code red?
129
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:22.399
Oh?
130
00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:24.680
Please, God, don't see that.
131
00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:30.839
Just so you guys know, if I ever die from
132
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:36.200
alcohol poisoning, it's going to be because Mountain Dew came
133
00:08:36.200 --> 00:08:38.600
out with a hard mountain dew code red.
134
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:43.519

deserved most of it. It's their own fault. Now, keeping
173
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:09.600
in mind, we don't do that because we're all Gen
174
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.240
xers in here, me, Trey, Raj, Jerry, all hardcore gen
175
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:17.039
X right. We don't do that just because we're insecure
176
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:19.440
and trying to make ourselves feel better. It's because we
177
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:24.440
truly believe, We truly feel that we as Generation X
178
00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:29.759
are the greatest generation currently going. And now we have
179
00:11:29.879 --> 00:11:36.759
research to prove it. Ooh okay, yeah. According to new research,
180
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:43.039
Generation X is the coolest generation, and we're also the happiest.
181
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:46.639
Well, I mean, the first one I can agree with.
182
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:51.840
We're the happiest then, holy crap.
183
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:55.080
Yeah yeah.
184
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:58.600
A recent you gov survey ranked the nineteen eighties and
185
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:01.960
the nineteen nineties as the periods with the highest quality
186
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:07.000
of life, the eras that significantly shaped gen X. The
187
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:10.759
article suggests a reassessment of Gen X, often dubbed the
188
00:12:10.799 --> 00:12:17.120
forgotten generation, positioning us as the coolest and potentially the happiest.
189
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:21.120
The piece draws comparison between gen X and younger generations
190
00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:24.840
like Millennials and then Gen Z, highlighting differences in behavior,
191
00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:29.799
anxiety levels, and substance use. Gen x's experience from the
192
00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:32.960
Cold War to the Digital Revolution are presented as providing
193
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:37.440
a unique perspective on current events, resonating with broader audiences,
194
00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:40.399
and they also note that the children of Gen X
195
00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:44.279
are now embracing the music and fashion of their parents' generation,
196
00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:48.799
indicating a renewed cultural interest. I firmly believe the reason
197
00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:52.879
why is because we as Gen X, know how good
198
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:57.320
we had it. We have an amazing perspective on not
199
00:12:57.480 --> 00:13:01.279
just life, but where we currently are are as a society.
200
00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:05.639
And a big part of that is because we are
201
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:10.000
familiar with technology, both of the analog era and the
202
00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:14.279
digital we bidge, those two worlds, and because of that,
203
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:17.960
we know best and we're now handing that over to
204
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:21.120
our children. And that's why so many things that were
205
00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:24.639
cool when we were young are cool again, because well,
206
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:29.120
I think we're forcing it on our kids and they're realizing, hey, this,
207
00:13:29.120 --> 00:13:32.960
this eighties and nineties stuff is pretty pretty rad.
208
00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:36.679
I think also, I just I will always say one
209
00:13:36.720 --> 00:13:39.559
of the things that really shaped us is the fact
210
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:45.679
that not only did we we learned ms DAWs, but
211
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:50.960
then as technology came about, we had to teach it
212
00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:53.879
to our parents, which was probably the worst thing ever.
213
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:59.559
I mean, I mean teaching listen here, I'll really age
214
00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:02.720
myself teaching how to use a fax machine.
215
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:04.799
That was a doozy.
216
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:10.519
And then you came again, kids, Internet wasn't always just available.
217
00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:13.000
Sometimes you had to dial in and and find the
218
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:14.639
right number, and it was a process.
219
00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:18.559
And for the record, all of us here, all of
220
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:21.080
us knew what it was to come of age without
221
00:14:21.080 --> 00:14:26.320
the internet, that's right. So we had to go old school.
222
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:28.200
That's right J C. Penny's catalog.
223
00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:32.279
Or you had to befriend somebody whose parents had porn,
224
00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:36.559
and I'm both yeah, And when you did that, you
225
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:39.000
just understood they weren't good people.
226
00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:41.840
You know.
227
00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:44.440
When my buddy's Sonny was like, Hey, my parents have porn,
228
00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:46.159
I'm like, you're thirteen with a neck tattoo.
229
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:49.759
Of course they do, yes, like that, but that's also
230
00:14:49.799 --> 00:14:51.480
the chance you were willing to take to get your
231
00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:52.279
eyes on some porn.
232
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:55.799
You're twelve and have a packa day marble red habit. Yes,
233
00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:57.360
your parents have porn.
234
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:01.360
I believe it speak thing of which that reminds me
235
00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:04.440
of one time when my parents decided to go out
236
00:15:04.480 --> 00:15:06.960
for date night and left my sister in charge to
237
00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:09.759
babysit me. My sister is six and a half years
238
00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:13.720
older than I am. At the time I believe I
239
00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:18.480
was seven, which would make her close to fourteen. Her
240
00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:21.919
boyfriend at the time, I believe was fifteen, and he
241
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.240
and his buddy came over to the house while mom
242
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:28.679
and dad went out for date night. So my parents,
243
00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:33.840
in their illustrious trust, allowed my sister to babysit me
