WEBVTT

1
00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:29.760
It is time to leave your worries
outside and laugh with us inside the tree

2
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:36.640
House. I'm Dan O'Malley, along
with Trey Trenholm and Raj Sharma. Coming

3
00:00:36.759 --> 00:00:43.640
up on today's Pick Show, we
have a special announcement about the Treehouse Pool

4
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:48.320
party that is coming up at the
end of the month. We're also going

5
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:53.600
to be debuting a new game.
I use the term game very loosely here.

6
00:00:55.039 --> 00:01:00.679
We'll be debuting Versus. It is
the terrifying new game from the Treehouse.

7
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:08.000
It was born in the previous episode
and it comes into its own in

8
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:14.480
this one. That'll be very interesting
debuting Verses today in the Treehouse. But

9
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:25.079
first I need to tell you about
something that happened recently. It actually happened

10
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:29.359
a few days ago. I need
to tell you about the explosion that happened

11
00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:38.000
in our home. But do you
yes? I shared just about everything with

12
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:42.439
you guys, and I'm sure as
hell not about to start stopping telling you

13
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:47.640
guys major life events that happened to
me. You guys, by the way,

14
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:51.200
are welcome to share those same life
events like Trey did in the previous

15
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:56.439
episode where he told us about his
most successful recent romantic relationship with the woman

16
00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:00.120
he had to remove from his bar
walker three blocks to a different bar are

17
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:02.359
uh And it was a thing of
beauty and we appreciated that. And I

18
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:06.519
want to make sure I mentioned that
again, Trey. I appreciate you sharing

19
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:13.520
with us. Have you started looking
up real estate and by Sean, because

20
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:17.199
you know there's more than just her. I'm just saying, if you want

21
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:21.039
to be crazy adjacent, No,
it's like, you know, we had

22
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:23.319
a full we had a full romance
in three blocks. I mean, love

23
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:28.080
hate, you know, just crazy
tears laughing. You're the greatest. You're

24
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:31.560
an ass. Just you can't talk. Mean it just it completed me.

25
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:36.879
It it satiated my need for a
relationship for the rest of this year.

26
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:43.759
You're like the Olympics. You're good
for a few more years. Team wins

27
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:49.080
again. I think that might be
the first time. It's the first time

28
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:53.240
they're taking home the gold. Yeah, Trey took home the flag bearer.

29
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:57.400
Well, actually didn't take her home. He just took her from one bar

30
00:02:57.479 --> 00:03:00.479
to the next. Uh. No, So I need to tell you guys

31
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:08.840
about the explosion that happened in our
home recently. Here's what happened. Okay,

32
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:16.360
I was actually recording commercials with Jacqueline
from Brooks Plumbing last week, right,

33
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:21.240
and as i'm I record in the
same fashion that we record here.

34
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:23.919
It's virtual. You know. She's
in you know, Garland and I'm here

35
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:29.240
in the Islands. And so we're
in the middle of recording one of one

36
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:34.240
of the commercials for Brooks Plumbing,
and off to my right, I hear

37
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:40.159
a pop and not like bubble wrap
pop, but not quite a you know,

38
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:46.879
C four pipe bomb explosion, but
a good healthy pop to wear back

39
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:55.120
into the left. And I try
to ignore it because I'm a professional.

40
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:58.560
It's like, okay, I'm gonna
power through, ignore it and just get

41
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:02.319
the spot recorded with Jaqueline. And
then about ten seconds later, one of

42
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:11.520
the most horrific smells that has ever
entered my nostrils assaulted me. And at

43
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:15.840
that point I look over towards the
kitchen where Tera is doing something, and

44
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:21.800
she's looking back at me like white
eyed, not quite in hysterics, but

45
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:27.120
something bad has clearly happened. So
at that point I wrap up the commercial

46
00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:30.240
with Jacqueline, and then i'd tell
Jacqueline, give me five minutes and find

47
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:35.399
out what's going on. I go
over and there was a small egg explosion

48
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:46.399
in the kitchen, a small,
severely rotten egg explosion. And when I

49
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.519
say severely rotten, I don't even
think this qualifies as rotten. This is

50
00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:56.120
something worse. This is something that
should only really pop up on a questionable

51
00:04:56.199 --> 00:05:00.240
sci fi movie on the sci Fi
Channel at like three a before the vaginal

52
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:09.879
mesh infomercials, you know. So
the backstory. The backstory here is since

53
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.560
we no longer have chickens because we're
on Saint John not Saint Thomas, Tara's

54
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:17.279
been feeding this little family of chickens. It's a mama hen and five chicks.

55
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:21.839
The other day, in this yard
outside of our building, I found

56
00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:27.040
an egg. And it's a yard
we walked through every day. So hey,

57
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.120
look, I'm assuming this is a
fresh egg. I bring it inside,

58
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.639
and a couple of days later is
when Tara decides, all right,

59
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:39.439
we're gonna cook this egg. I
mean, you think about it, free

60
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:46.959
range organic. I'm assuming you can't
get any more free range chicken egg than

61
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:51.360
dropped in the middle of a field
next to your apartment building from a wild

62
00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:57.920
chicken. Okay, at this point, I would like to tell you,

63
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:00.360
guys, if you ever come across
a and the egg in a field.

64
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:03.959
Leave it, don't touch it,
don't pick it up, don't bring it

65
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:09.600
inside. Definitely, do not have
any intention of cooking said egg. Yeah,

66
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:15.279
I don't think, as much as
my curiosity sometimes gets the best of

67
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:19.199
me, I would never think to
pick up field egg. Yeah, especially

68
00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:24.519
the one that's been in the sunshine. And that's exactly right. Well,

69
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:30.800
I had to learn that lesson the
hard way. YouTube jerks. The sun

70
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:34.560
cooked it before you did, and
then we waited about three days to crack

71
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:41.600
it open. So wait here here
it gets better because yeah, well not

72
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:44.160
for Terah, because she was the
one that decided to try to cook it.

73
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:47.639
She goes to crack the egg to
then put it in the pan.

74
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:56.519
So when it does the you know
the click when she smashes it on the

75
00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:00.399
counter, she tries to break the
egg on the counter, and on like

76
00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:08.879
the second or third tap, it
explodes like it doesn't just like do like

77
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:13.199
a tiny crack and splinter like a
typical egg. No, it explodes.

78
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:16.680
It's got a bunch of sulfur gas. A bunch of sulfur gas comes pouring

79
00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:24.720
out along with a mysterious green yogurt
light consistency, liquidy, clumpy thing that

80
00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:32.399
is now oozing out of the egg
at this point, I don't know that.

81
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:35.759
When I'm recording the commercial with Jacqueline, I just smell the I heard

82
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:40.199
the pop, and then I smelled
the aftermath. And then when I saw

83
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:46.279
Terra's face when I looked over,
it was sheer horror. And we were

84
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.439
picking up food yesterday and we were
talking about it again because she's like,

85
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:54.040
oh, don't forget. You need
to tell the guys about the egg explosion.

86
00:07:55.360 --> 00:08:00.639
She looked up photos of what happened. She didn't take photo because she

87
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:03.319
couldn't stand it, but she took
She looked up photos on Google images of

88
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:07.399
what it looks like. Right,
I see both your hands up, hang

89
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:09.879
on a second. Yes, And
she was going to show it to me

90
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:16.319
because she loves me and wants me
to continue to be able to eat eggs.

91
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:18.600
She said, you know what,
I think it's better that you don't

92
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:22.839
see this. Yes, is it
an egg? That egg actually has had

93
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:28.000
like a little chicken it and then
it composed And yeah, uh maybe I

94
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:31.960
don't. I don't know because you've
ever raised chickens, you've you've got the

95
00:08:31.960 --> 00:08:35.200
egg that yeah, you all that
I've seen. I've seen I've seen the

96
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:39.559
egg where it has the you know, the partially formed you know, chickenside.

97
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.120
But apparently what what popped out of
this was just all green yogurt like

98
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:46.720
ooze. So whatever was in there
head turned. Yeah. It actually makes

99
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.240
me think the zombie if the zombie
apocalypse starts, it will have started it

100
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:56.799
with that chicken egg. Yes,
it was. Here's and this is just

101
00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:00.799
how my brain works. Like,
you've been walking through this field. Do

102
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:03.639
this is what Dan does? Uh? And for days and days and days

103
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:09.159
feeding the hen and the baby never
saw an egg. And then on like

104
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:13.320
the fourth or fifth day're like,
hey, let's turn that into an omelet.

105
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:18.519
Uh, and the sun if it
could talk, went Dan, I

106
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:22.919
did that like four days ago.
Uh, don't crack this egg and you

107
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:31.120
got a decomposed fetus. Is what
you smashed on your counter. I think

108
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:35.840
what I think, what we opened
up in the kitchen is something that will

109
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:41.480
eventually have it's on Netflix documentary and
will then be featured on our friends show

110
00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:54.960
Sinisterhood podcast. Yeah, so how
was it? Did you smell? Huh?

111
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:56.519
Smell no, God, No,
we put that thing in the trash

112
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:00.960
and took the trash out and then
left the house. Did did you throw

113
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:03.720
the pan out? No, we
just cleaned them. I don't did it

114
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:09.919
did the egg make it into the
pan? Tara said it made it on

115
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:16.679
the wall, the pan, the
microwave. So you're moving now, actually

116

to looking for contractor what's more important,

122
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:03.600
Daniel the quality of the work or
the price that I'm going to pay?

123
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.840
I guess it depends on how long
you want your project to last. I

124
00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:11.399
mean, there's a lot of guys
out there that are, you know,

125
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:18.799
certified Google experts, and maybe they
would love to do the job for a

126
00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:20.360
cheap, cheap price just to get
a little bit of money in their pocket.

127
00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:24.480
But you know, it goes back
to what we've been saying for years.

128
00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:28.519
You know who's going to warranty that
project. If something goes wrong,

129
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:33.000
who's going to ensure them while they're
on your property? And if they fall

130
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:37.679
off the roof and get hurt.
You know, you're responsible for things like

131
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:39.000
that as a homeowner, and I
don't think a lot of people understand that.

132
00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:45.799
So if you take shortcuts in construction, in roofing, in remodeling,

133
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:48.960
it's going to come back and probably
get you one way or the other.

134
00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:52.639
So if you want quality, you
need to go out and really do some

135
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:56.759
research. And that's where we stand
above a lot of majority of the competition.

136
00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:00.360
We're going to warranty our products and
we're going to give you the very

137
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:05.279
best experience that you could probably have. And that's why I've used Cookedfwroofing and

00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:54.879
three three cook DFW the website cookdfw
dot com. Gentlemen, it's time for

147
00:12:54.960 --> 00:13:01.840
us to debut our new game,
Versus. This was born out of the

148
00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:13.200
previous episode where I asked you guys
about would you rather m in a death

149
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:16.879
match? You have to choose your
opponent, and I asked you would you

150
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:22.720
want that opponent to be a meth
field attack squirrel or Gary Busey, And

151
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:28.360
I think you both went Gary Busey. No, I think we both know

152
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:33.320
yeah, because the myth has a
chance of eating the squirrel's teeth. That's

153
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:35.600
never gonna Eaty's teeth, That's right, Okay, So you both went with

154
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:41.320
the met field attack squirrel. So
I started ruminating about that since then,

155
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.519
and I decided, you know,
that sounds like a fun game we can

156
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:46.639
play on the show. So would
you like to play version of the official

157
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.559
new version of Versus with me?
Now? Yeah? Absolutely famous? Last

158
00:13:50.559 --> 00:14:07.679
word nothing, Pucy. We shall
see, gentlemen, it's time to play

159
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.720
versus. A hot topic on the
show recently has been eighties playground equipment that

160
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:20.799
we all grew up on playing and
building up scar tissue and character and grit

161
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:26.320
and various viruses and things, built
up a solid immunity over the years.

162
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:33.320
Right, So here's my question for
you, through all the playground stuff we've

163
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:39.159
been talking about recently in the treehouse, in a death match, I need

164
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:46.360
you to choose your opponent. Would
you rather take on a single ISIS fighter

165
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:58.320
or an entire class of fourth graders
from the eighties. Now, if you're

166
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.080
I'm going to give you a moment
to think about this. If you're wondering,

167
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:07.960
why would I choose these seemingly very
different entities, Here's why. Remember

168
00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:11.399
back in the early mid two thousands
or so, when like Taliban and ISIS

169
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:18.000
and they would release their terrorist training
videos and all it really was was guys

170
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.639
in black masks on the monkey bars
one after another. Yes, didn't really

171
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:26.879
intimidate any of us, did it, because we all that stuff we all

172
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:33.120
did in like elementary school, and
honestly looked cooler doing it. And they

173
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:37.799
had sand to fall on in their
video we had actual limestone gravel with glass

174
00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:45.000
and things. So that is why
I am putting these two together in our

175
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.799
first edition of Verses. So I'm
going to ask you again the question.

176
00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:52.440
In a death match, you must
choose your opponent. Would you rather take

177
00:15:52.480 --> 00:16:00.639
on a single ISIS fighter or an
entire class of fourth grade from the eighties

178
00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:04.080
not current fourth graders? Because playgrounds
are made out of hugs. That's not

179
00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:15.679
That's it, Trey. I will
start with you can the fourth graders ask

180
00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:22.159
questions? Mmm? Ironically, that's
a great question, Trey. I think

181
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:30.159
it's important that in a death match
that the individuals involved get to use all

182
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.799
the tools at their disposal. So
I'm going to say yes. I said,

183
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:40.399
I'm gonna go with the ISIS fighter
because you're afraid if I die,

184
00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:48.200
at least be peaceful. Be more
peaceful. Twenty five fourth graders asking a

185
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:55.600
bunch of questions? Yeah, no, interesting? Do they ask the questions

186
00:16:55.879 --> 00:17:02.440
simultaneously? And do they have a
number of questions that they can ask before

187
00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:04.559
they have to stop? It's a
death match, rag, anything's possible,

188
00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:10.880
so they can all at the same
time just start shouting out questions. Sure,

189
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:19.759
I'm gonna take the fourth graders because
the Isis guy will kill himself the

190
00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:27.839
one time the suicide vest is in
your Yeah, is in Miss Wisdom's homeroom.

191
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:33.240
Like that, that's the only building
part he took out was just the

192
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:42.519
teacher's lounge. Yeah, if you
can have twenty five eight year olds simultaneously

193
00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:48.640
asking questions with no end and no
response, like you don't even have to

194
00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:52.039
respond to their questions. They just
keep asking questions, some of them over

195
00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:56.319
and over again, the same ones. Yeah, that guy is gonna that

196
00:17:56.319 --> 00:18:00.240
guy's gonna explode himself. I'm fascinated
by by the fact that you both so

197
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:04.279
Raj you chose the fourth graders,
you chose the fourth graders, and Trey

198
00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:10.599
you went with the Isis fighter because
you just have to assume, like he's

199
00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:12.519
just gonna he's just gonna, like
the bomb has to go off and kill

200
00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:18.519
everybody. Look in my scenario,
he just wants out. He didn't sign

201
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:25.759
up for this kind of war.
Well, congratulations, gentlemen, thank you

202
00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:30.319
for playing our very first official edition
of Versus inside the Treehouse. Thank you

203
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:45.079
very much. Yeah, and now
we get to play the other new game.

204
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:55.839
Will YouTube flag this portion of the
show for copyright infringement. You're listening

205
00:18:55.920 --> 00:19:08.960
to the Treehouse visit goes online that
treehouse on air. Let's get Jacqueline from

206
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:12.400
Brooks Plumbing into the Treehouse now for
Indy and all of your plumbing once and

207
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:15.279
needs to give for a call to
one fourth three six eight thirty eight thirty

208
00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:19.880
eight the website Brooks Plumbingtexas dot com. I was talking to Daniel Cook from

209
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:23.559
cook Dfwroofing Restoration about this. I
wanted to throw this at you as well.

210
00:19:23.680 --> 00:19:29.200
What's more important the best contractor or
the best deal. If Daniel thinks

211
00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:32.640
at all like me, I'm gonna
guess what his answer is, which would

212
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:37.160
be identical to mine. And there's
an old saying that you can get a

213
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:42.000
contractor that's fast, cheap and good
or a high quality, and you can

214
00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:45.519
typically get two out of three,
but you can't get all three at the

215
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:47.759
same time. So you may be
able to get it fast and cheap,

216
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:49.599
but it won't be good. And
you might be able to get it fast

217
00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:52.920
and good, but it won't be
cheap, et cetera, et cetera.

218
00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:59.880
And I think that's really true.
What's cool, in my opinion is that

219
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:04.000
if you're working with a good contractor. If you're clear enough about what your

220
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:08.240
needs are, they can make themselves
what you need. Two one four three

that Trey has the prototype of the Treehouse

254
00:22:57.680 --> 00:23:02.680
Pool party hat, and you would
see it if you were a Patreon subscriber.

255
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:03.720
Sharp look, yeah, lean in
again, in a little bit more,

256
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:11.759
Trey, it is a Yeah,
that looks good. You did an

257
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:18.079
outstanding job these are It's an excellent
cap. It is a trucker cap summer

258
00:23:18.119 --> 00:23:26.440
colors. And the company that ordered
these from is based in Florida and they

259
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:30.200
wouldn't send the single prototype hat to
me in the Virgin Island. So I

260
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:33.279
had descended to Trey in Dallas to
make sure that it was up up to

261
00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:40.519
par for us to sell at the
Foe Pool party, and it got sent.

262
00:23:40.559 --> 00:23:41.960
Tray picked it up and yeah,
it looks absolutely outstanding. So I'm

263
00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:45.920
excited. So if you're listening,
you can't see it, but if you

00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:52.119
see and get your own Treehouse Pool
Party hat, which is very awesome.

266
00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:59.000
The design, the logo, the
artwork was actually designed by my wife based

267
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:06.440
on a true story, based on
a punchline. It really is that the

268
00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:15.359
hat is a combination of a few
different things based on actual life experiences and

269
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:18.880
a punchline that will not die and
we don't want it to because it's a

270
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:22.720
good one. So there you have
it. There's your Treehouse merchantse for today

271
00:24:23.559 --> 00:24:26.920
inside the Treehouse So again, that's
at the tree Housepital party at the Foe

272
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:33.680
in Dallas, Saturday, July twenty
seventh, the day after mister Trenholm's fiftieth

273
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:37.240
birthday. Yeah, so I was
going to wait to give you a present

274
00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:42.279
tray, but I figure, you
know what, the hat will be your

275
00:24:42.279 --> 00:24:48.000
birthday present from from me in Terara. I appreciate it. I'm kidding.

276
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:52.079
We'll figure something else out. But
it really does look good. I'm actually

277
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:56.359
very pleased with how that came out, you know, as I told you,

278
00:24:56.400 --> 00:24:59.599
like, I'm picky with caps.
I don't wear them often because hey,

279
00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.279
I've got big seven and seven eighth
melon head and Jesus. Yeah,

280
00:25:03.680 --> 00:25:10.400
so but these fit great. The
Saint Tulsa logo is fantastic. You're given

281
00:25:10.440 --> 00:25:12.839
you're giving out all the secrets.
Oh, I figured they could see it

282
00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:15.400
on the when I well, they
can, but not the people listening.

283
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:23.319
Okay, that's all right, we'll
ignore that it actually works. It makes

284
00:25:23.319 --> 00:25:27.440
the tease even better. And honestly, like you, Trey, I'm I

285
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:33.960
am extremely anal about a number of
things, and my hats is near the

286
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:38.039
top of the list. I am
beyond picky when it comes to picking out

287
00:25:38.039 --> 00:25:44.519
a hat. So I'm very excited
to uh get my own because I'll be

288
00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:49.160
wearing that as well, along with
the shirts, the coozies, and the

289
00:25:49.160 --> 00:25:53.000
stickers, all available at the tree
House Pool Party Saturday, July twenty seventh,

290
00:25:53.079 --> 00:25:57.480
one four pm at the Foe in
Dallas. All Right, I feel

291
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:08.759
good. Let's make this segment really
worthwhile by doing something really stupid and right

292
00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:12.880
now, I don't know if I
can think of anything more stupid than a

293
00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:18.400
man accused of breaking into a pet
store and he was found by police sleeping

294
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:27.000
with hamsters in his pants. Insert
Richard Gear joke here, Yeah, that

295
00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:33.079
would be the obvious thing. An
Ohio man is accused of breaking into several

296
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:37.319
stores, which those of us in
the Treehouse No means seven, including a

297
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:42.359
pet store where he let various animals
loose, but police said they found the

298
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:49.359
man asleep in the store with the
hamsters in his pants. Obviously not something

299
00:26:49.359 --> 00:26:56.519
that the police officers come across every
day, but it certainly does make for

300
00:26:56.559 --> 00:27:02.440
an interesting sound bite when the news
goes and speaks to, you know,

301
00:27:02.680 --> 00:27:07.480
the officers on the scene about what
they found. You say it all the

302
00:27:07.519 --> 00:27:11.160
time, and we never know what
to expect in our job. And one

303
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:15.680
day you know you're you're running after
a suspect. The next day you're running

304
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:26.400
after affair or a bunny. Sometimes
they're one of the same. I would

305
00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:30.640
think though, that the suspect with
hamster and his with hamsters in his pants

306
00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:37.480
would be easier to catch. Do
we know did he put the hamsters in

307
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:41.519
his pants or did the hamsters?
Did he pass out and the hamsters climbed

308
00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:48.000
in? Oh? That is a
massively important question. Let me see if

309
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:52.599
I can get you an answer on
this. Hang with me one second.

310
00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:57.519
Uh. In Columbus, Ohio,
police arrested a suspect who they believe broke

311
00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:02.599
into several businesses in the city West
side, including a pet store where several

312
00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:08.119
animals were released. Officers responded.
Just after three am, they were notified

313
00:28:08.119 --> 00:28:14.200
of a burglary alarm going off.
Officers discovered that a restaurant was broken into.

314
00:28:14.319 --> 00:28:18.680
Detectives obtained video evidence showing a man
with long hair wearing leopard print pajamas.

315
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:22.039
It is unclear whether anything was taken
from the restaurant. About one hundred

316
00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:26.480
yards away, officers found that the
pet Land store was also broken into,

317
00:28:26.960 --> 00:28:30.920
and several animals were seen running around
in the parking lot. Police recovered two

318
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:36.359
dogs, multiple birds, a hamster, and at least two bunnies. Police

319
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:40.559
Sergeant Joe Albert said officers were still
searching for a couple of rabbits and birds

320
00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:45.880
and a ferret. While searching the
area, police discovered the famous footwear store

321
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:48.279
had been broken into. He said. Hiss believed the suspect is connected to

322
00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:52.839
the break ins at the three businesses. They said. The suspect, who

323
00:28:52.839 --> 00:29:00.880
was identified as Matthew Pancake, was
found sleeping near the Big Lots on Roberts

324
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:04.640
Road at four forty seven am.
They arrested him and discovered there were four

325
00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:10.079
hamsters in his pants, so since
he was no longer at the pet store,

326
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:12.000
he was sleeping in front of the
big lots. I'm going to assume

327
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:18.240
that he stuffed the hamsters in his
pants and then slept with them. That's

328
00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:22.079
yeah. When you said leopard print
pajamas, I was gonna go with,

329
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:26.359
yeah, you put him in there. He had a rough night at the

330
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:33.440
bar, didn't get any action,
went home. What can I do now?

331
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:37.359
Yeah? But I bet in his
mind he was thinking when he was

332
00:29:37.400 --> 00:29:41.039
going to retell the story to his
buddies the next day, it was going

333
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:47.240
to be like, yeah, so
it was four girls when in reality hampster

334
00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:56.880
wheel on his taint. Yeah.
Usually when guys are trying to turn,

335
00:29:57.039 --> 00:30:00.359
you know, trying to turn the
mississ on, they tried the hell copter

336
00:30:00.480 --> 00:30:07.640
thing, not the hempster reel well
holding up a little sign that says who

337
00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:22.880
wants to ride? You're listening to

to also mention this, this is another

340
00:30:52.839 --> 00:30:56.799
fun announcement that we get to make
inside the Treehouse on the heels of the

341
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:02.079
fun and exciting merch that will be
available at the Treehouse School Party at the

342
00:31:02.119 --> 00:31:06.400
Foe in Dallas Saturday, July July
twenty seventh, from one to four pm.

343
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:14.799
We've got a new rule inside the
Treehouse and that is five percent of

344
00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:22.240
all gross revenues that come into the
Treehouse Podcast Network, we'll go into the

345
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:26.559
Listener's Foundation. One of the most
common questions we receive, whether it's email,

346
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:33.240
social media, in person, it
is typically is the foundation still going,

347
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:41.240
Which honestly is a flattering and positive
question because we haven't had to write

348
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:49.319
a check in almost two years.
There's been a couple instances where it was

349
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:53.160
very close that a check was written, but some of the couple of those

350
00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:57.960
debts were not exactly in the line
of duty, and we are limited to

351
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:01.960
in the line duty deaths only when
it comes to police officers and firefighters in

352
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:07.599
DFW. But when people ask that
question, the reason why they ask it

353
00:32:07.759 --> 00:32:09.119
right now is because we haven't,
like I said, haven't had to write

354
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:13.039
a check in almost two years.
So that's a good thing. But we

355
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:16.480
still raise money for the foundation.
The foundation still has a good chunk of

356
00:32:16.519 --> 00:32:22.640
money in it to be used when
needed. Unfortunately, it is. It's

357
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:25.240
reality. It's going to be a
win, not an iff. But we're

358
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:30.559
ready to roll when we need to
and to that in we want to make

359
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:32.599
sure that we keep contributing to it. And so that's why five percent of

360
00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:38.640
all gross revenues that come into the
Treehouse Podcast network will be donated into the

361
00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:43.480
Listeners Foundation. So there you have
it. That's some good information for everyone

362
00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:46.359
to have. And if you want
to advertise inside the show speaking of revenues

363
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:49.680
coming into the show, you can
do that. Just contact us Treehouse on

364
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:52.440
Air at gmail dot com. We
would love to work together, right Trey,

365
00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:58.200
Yeah, absolutely, because the more
advertising dollars we can bring in,

366
00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:02.119
the more we can donate by into
the foundation, and then maybe the more

367
00:33:02.160 --> 00:33:07.079
I can afford to fly back to
Texas and do more in person events and

368
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:10.359
not have to fly Spirit Airlines where
they trap me in Fort Lauderdale. As

369
00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:19.519
it is, we take a week
and get Let's finish today on something extra

370
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:28.200
stupid, and I'd like to thank
you Trey for finding this especially stupid story.

371
00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:32.640
A Provo Utah woman has become the
fastest mermaid in the world at the

372
00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:42.960
mur Olympics. I did not know
until you sent me the story trade that

373
00:33:44.119 --> 00:33:49.279
the mur Olympics were a thing that's
I did not know that either until I

374
00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:54.160
ran across the story, but on
a lot of of all the success of

375
00:33:54.200 --> 00:34:01.559
the hobby horse competitions. Oh yes, that's where the stickhorse people. Uh

376
00:34:01.640 --> 00:34:09.000
huh have you seen videos of that? Oh? Yeah, yeah, yeah

377
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:16.920
for our old school listeners. Insert
Dan Lewis joke here. A lot of

378
00:34:16.960 --> 00:34:21.440
young girls pretend to be a mermaid
while swimming in a pool or in the

379
00:34:21.480 --> 00:34:25.679
ocean, But one provo Utah woman
has made that dream come true and competed

380
00:34:27.079 --> 00:34:31.000
in the Olympics. Mia sim Is
twenty two. She became the fastest mermaid

381
00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:37.159
in the world in May when she
competed at the Swiss Olympics in Geneva,

382
00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:42.880
Switzerland. The Olympics have been around
since twenty fifteen and the competition is held

383
00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:47.920
every two years. She's also been
mermaiding. I need to reread that sentence

384
00:34:47.960 --> 00:34:52.559
because I need to make sure you
get every nuance of this story. Okay,

385
00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:59.440
you ready. She's officially been mermaiding
for ten years, which then begs

386
00:34:59.480 --> 00:35:05.920
the question, what have you been
doing in your unofficial capacity? And who

387
00:35:06.039 --> 00:35:12.800
is the governing body that awards you
the designation of official mermaid? Will that

388
00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:17.800
be the IOM or the the IMC. Maybe the International mer Olympics Committee.

389
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:23.039
Yeah, the IMC, the International
Olympics Committee, uh IMP for short.

390
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:29.079
H. So she's been officially mermaiding
for ten years, and she said the

391
00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:31.400
my Olympics have really boomed in the
past five years. She says, this

392
00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:37.599
is elite athleticism you can get out
of mermaids. Many mermaids will do pageants

393
00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:43.199
or events, but the my Olympics
are solely designed to prove athleticism. You

394
00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:45.440
want to know what the five events
are at the my Olympics, trade yes,

395
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:52.639
please. Number one speed, the
athletes race along the top of the

396
00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:57.559
water for fifty meters. Number two
rescue, the mermaid has to do a

397
00:35:57.559 --> 00:36:02.960
twenty five meter submerged swim and rest
you a dummy. Number three underwater posing.

398
00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:07.880
Each person dives down and poses for
a photo and then has to swim

399
00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:10.760
away for the next person to take
their spot. Our champion said she thinks

400
00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:15.239
this one is the hardest. Also
figures the competitor has to perform three of

401
00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:22.840
ten mermaid figures. And finally,
ecology, the athlete dives down and retrieves

402
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:30.920
as much trash as possible in ninety
seconds. So it's not only an athletic

403
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:37.400
event. It also would check off
your community service box. It's fascinating though,

404
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:43.480
that the winner of the mer Olympics
is from a a landlocked state that

405
00:36:43.920 --> 00:36:47.360
doesn't have an ocean. You know
what, Tray, Sometimes the Disney films

406
00:36:47.400 --> 00:37:00.960
just right themselves. You can't be
a mermaid. What's the girl's name?

407
00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:07.960
Mia? You can't be a mermaid? Miya. You live on a mountain.

408
00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:19.239
I'll show you. There's a song
and dance number right there. Oh

409
00:37:19.280 --> 00:37:22.000
man, can't wait to see who
they cast that role with. All Right,

410
00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:25.039
there you go. That's the Treehouse
