1:03 All right. First up, it's normally we are funny news and viral stories, you know, hilarious commentary on all the things. I think. The earthquake in Venezuela bears a mention from us just because of how awful it is. Plural is the I think the thing that really people do not understand. I have read and it is awful. But I still sometimes I don't think people understand the magnitude of quakes, that the difference between seven to two and seven to five every point like point two to point three is a factor of ten. So the fact that you had two back to back quakes of that magnitude, I mean, it's just off and and it's God. I I saw one thing where they suspect that some of the buildings were made out of like instead of like concrete, they were using styrofoam. I don't know if that is true or not, but if it is, I mean, it's just it's so tragic, and.

2:24 It's beyond. It's beyond comprehension. Honestly, unless you're there to see it, experience it, having gone through it, I don't think we can truly wrap our brains around. I mean, I some of the overhead shots, the only thing that even I can, are reminiscent of that kind of destruction where the tsunamis that had, you know, twenty years ago in Indonesia, that where you just saw giant parcels of land just wiped out. Some of the stuff I saw in headlines and things when I first saw the store, you know, when I first saw that, you know, massive earthquake Invenezuela, and then another one and then aftershocks, and how awful they are is the pancaking of the buildings, Like I guess, they're built in such a way that any instability, instead of them falling over to one side or whatever, they just pancake right on top of itself and just collapses straight down.

3:21 So if you're inside, it's ugly seeing horrific but also beautiful stories about people wrapping themselves around their loved ones trying to protect them in the middle of these earthquakes. I mean, it's just absolutely it's gut wrenching, and like I said, I just it's on such a scale that it's hard to imagine unless you know you're constantly consuming that sort of information that whether it's on social media or a news outlet, or if you know, if you're there for I just I can't wrap my brains. Like you said, Trey, I still can't understand, you know, the difference of an earthquake seven point two to seven point three.

4:15 I know the math is that it's really really bad. Seven point three is way worse than seven point two, but my logical brain doesn't understand. Can't quite compute that. It just seems like, oh, just a little bit worse. I can't. I can't comprehend an earthquake. I can comprehend a hurricane. I can comprehend a tornado. I can comprehend all sorts. But an earthquake, yeah, I would freak me out worse than anything. I have felt. I believe I have felt one earthquake. Uh, and that was actually on the island of Saint Thomas. I felt one one time. I think it was like a four four to two something like that. I mean it was It's just just enough that I was like, what was that? But it didn't scare me. It was just something I just kind of briefly noticed and that was it. Even in North Texas we get earthquakes in the threes and things that supposedly happened that I never felt.

5:16 I mean, my grandfather could fart a five, so I mean it when you say a seven something, I just have no idea what that's like. Right, not have the earth literally shaking beneath your feet and you there's nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. No, And it seems like the ring of fire is not a good place to be right now. Where are you going next? Oh on my travels? Huh, Detroit and then. Portland. Ring a fire? Congratulations, that's part of it. Oh no, how big is this ring of fire? What did Johnny Cash know that he that he didn't so plainly tell us.

6:06 It's basically the rim of the Pacific, the northern you know, goes all the way from Asia, all the way around to the west coast the US down to the basically the west coast of a you know, central and South America. Venezuela's right on the tip of it, right. In the edge. Got it. No, that I understand. Pacific Grim, I totally understand that. I love that movie. That's a great movie, A Pacific Grim, I got Yeah. But I will keep that in mind, all right. Traveling to Hell Escape. Yeah, well, I mean because it also not only earthquakes within you have volcano volcanic activity. Yep, got those up there? Good time? Yeah, brilliant. Right here at least New York, where I am right now, is really really nice. We'll see if it stays that. Oh man, all right, so our I hate the phrase, but I don't know if prayers, thoughts and prayers to everyone in Venezuela. This is not going to make you feel better. Honestly, if you're in Venezuela, you're probably not listening to this anyway. But another story that we need to discuss inside the Treehouse, and it happened last week. It happened at a campground in California.

7:29 A man was in a campground toilet. I didn't say that wrong. I don't mean bathroom. I mean he was in the toilet. Man goes into a campground bathroom and somehow dropped his sunglasses into the toilet. Now, the toilet is known as a vault style toilet. Basically, it just looks like a cone that comes off the floor of the bathroom and then the toilet seat is on top of it. Right, Somehow this man drops his sunglasses into the toilet and he went in after them, and what a shocker, he got stuck down there. He was down there, which, by the way, there's no sewer system in this park.

8:16 I believe this was a National park in California, some campground where he is, and he goes in after his sunglasses and he gets stuck trying to retrieve them. There's no flow, there's no sewer system. It's basically just a septic tank underneath this bathroom, and he's just in it, slum dog millionaire style, and he's trying to get his sunglasses, and lo and behold, he can't get out. So he's stuck down there for at least fifteen minutes. Finally help comes. The local fire department shows up, police show up, and I imagined they we're engrossed in a very vigorous rock paper scissors to see who was gonna have to go in there and get him. Well, we all know it was the firefighters that had to do it, because I don't I think, as much as they wouldn't want to, I think that falls on them. I think the police are like, uh uh, this is a hose situation, not a gun thing. It that's you, guys, you have fun dangling in the toilet.

9:26 I mean, do you have to hope that they were at least like a good pair of sunglasses? I mean, is that? Thank you for asking the obvious question of which I cannot find the answer every news outlet I have checked, every article I have read, every social media post I have seen about this idiot who jumped into a campground toilet to get his sunglasses. None of them have stated what brand of sunglasses they were, not that I think any brand of sunglasses are worth jumping into a septic tank four used by the public. It's not even your own septic take. This is a public septic take. I mean there's some awful stuff down there. I think Andy Dufrain would think twice about rummaging in there. I don't care how long he's been at Shawshank. Look, I am a sunglass snob. I love my costas. I've considered Maui Jims for my next purchase. I need polarization. I am not going into a public septic tank to get any of my sunglasses. Honest to God, Trey, if you fell in that toilet, I might look down and say you made your choices and.

10:37 Leave that's on you, and I wouldn't blame you. There could be a person down there, and I don't know if I'm jumping in to. Help you a dog, Yes, person. Right, dog, I'm down there. I will get you, buddy. Person, you did something to put yourself in there, so that's yeah, I'll call somebody for you. How about that? But nowhere, nowhere in any article that I have read, does it state what brand of sunglasses. Yeah, that to me is a very. If it was like a gas station pair of sunglasses, and I'm the fireman, I'm gonna be so I'm gonna be de livid. I I might absolutely, you know, drop you in the muck again. Just face first before I get you out of there, because at least if it's a pair of ray Bands or Malley Jams, if it's an expensive pair of sunglasses, not overly douchey, but just a good pair of sunglasses, I'd at least somewhat understand.

11:38 Right. If I'm the firefighter and I find out you jumped into a public septic tank for a pair of Foster Grants, I am putting you back in. You need to think about what you've done, and you need to up your standards just a little bit. But at the it's like, I don't even know if any cheap sunglass brands other than Foster Grant. I mean, I don't know, like like whatever like Walmart has by the cash register or whatever's at CVS, you know, standing you know, next to the melatonin, but. You know, gas station sunglasses. Yeah, uh, instead of Oakley's, it's Acles instead of MAUI Jim, it's Hawaii Bob, Yeah, I can't no, no, let it go, Bro.

12:29 There's sunglasses. Yeah, but you can squinch your way through the rest of the day. It's got to be the dumbest thing someone has climbed into a toilet for. I don't think there's anything I own. If I dropped my phone into that toilet, it's gone, and and all of our lives revolve around our phones these days. Hopefully I will have backed it up to I Cloud recently. But I mean, I honest to god, I can't think of anything that I owned that I would drop into that toilet that I would think, all right, I'm going in there after it.

13:13 No, nut's uh not in that kind of you know, shit pit is basically. What it is. I think that's our show title today. You're listening to a treehouse. Visit us online at Treehouse on air dot com.

14:24 You know you're right, and we just are officially in going into the super al Nino. The reason why is because it's warmer than a regular al Nino, and it does prelude that we will have a wetter, higher rain percentage than a normal. Year, or shall we say, on al Nina. So there are some differences, speculations. Nothing is set in stone. This is not a guarantee that we're gonna have a deluge of water for the next year. I mean, that's just not what it means. Scientific data says, hey, we might have a wetter than normal, we could have more storms. It could be just a lot of rain. We all need to go out and build arcs. I don't know, but I mean be prepared.

It is Tuesday, June thirtieth, twoenty twenty six. Let's celebrate the d with some birthdays. Heavyweight boxing legend and defeated by Jake Paul. Mike Tyson turned sixty today. We don't count that, Dewey. No, that's not real. No, And I'm. I think I still even at that, I think Mike was holding back some. I think there was a fix on that one.

17:32 Absolutely. The man is biting his own glove throughout the fight to remind himself not to kill the white man in front of him. And there were so many times like watching clips after the fight, because I watched the fight, but then saw clips as well afterwards where you could see like the instinct to kill and he pulled the punch like I don't mean he only threw it at like fifty percent power. I mean you could see his shoulder twitch and then he just wouldn't throw it. Yeah, and this is a guy that when they fought, he's fifty nine years old. There were multiple times in that fight, he could have killed Jake Paul and some of us, some people may have wished that he had, but he didn't, and instead we got the spectacle. But I think anyone with half a brain knows that even a fifty nine year old Mike Tyson off the leash would destroy Jake Paul at twenty eight, twenty nine, however old he was at the time.

18:27 Yeah, there was I mean, I mean they'd say it Mike needed the cash and it was a big rain. Well, the longer it went, the more he got paid. And so I don't fault him for it, but is what it is. He ate his own gloves more than he punched Jake Paul. Yeah, that tells you everything you need to know. Other birthdays today, Monica Potter turns fifty five. According to some people, she's sort of the blonde Julia Roberts. She's the one that looks very similar to Julia Roberts, just blonde. She is best known for Parenthood, the TV show, not the movie. She was also opposite Robin Williams in Patch Adams. She was also in Saw Monica Potter very fine actress. Speaking of fine actresses, Lizzie Kaplan turns forty four, star of Mean Girls, Masters of Sex and Fleischmann Is in Trouble.

19:24 She also had a really good guest role for a couple of episodes on New Girl. She was also one of the main people in Cloverfield back in the day. That was a fun movie. There's something else that I can't think of it off the top of my head, but Lizzie cap I'm a big fan. I think she's really talented. She's forty four today. Another very fine actor. This may be one of my favorite actors of all time. Vincent Dinafrio was sixty seven. This dude is a true actor. He is a chameleon. He can do anything and be convincing at it. And these are these are a few of the roles that he's known for, you know, Law and Order, criminal intent. He was Private Pile in Full Metal.

20:10 Mate Jacket. Yeah, he is Marvel's kingpin. There was I forget the name of the movie. It was really creepy. I think he played a serial killer or something was opposite Jennifer Lopez. I can't remember the name of the movie. But it was a beautifully shot like the cinematography, and I'm not such a movie nerd R. I'm like, ooh, the cinematography. But that movie where he was the bad guy opposite, I think it was Jennifer Lopez. He was amazing and just super creepy. But I think one of his best roles, honestly was in Men in Black, the very first Men in Black, where he's the one that has been taken over by the alien bug. He is amazing in that movie.

20:58 To me, he stole that movie from Amy Lee Jones and Will Smith, despite the fact those guys were amazing, as was Rip Torn. But Vincent Dinofrio was so convincing as that body snatched human. I think that's one of my favorite roles of his. Agreed, And it was almost hard to reconcile at the time that that was the full metal jacket guy. I mean you talk about a hell of a career, yeah, I mean starting out with Kubrick full metal Jacket. That's a type of role that if you do nothing else in your career, you can always hang your hat and be like I did that and everyone would give you immediate respect and and and that didn't happen. He just kept going and going. He's had had a great career.

21:48 And his he is. I don't know sometimes if it's on purpose or an accident, but his body has has shifted around a bunch because he has gone from pudgy pole to you know, really slim to marvel where he's so just to be enormous. He's like fat jacked as Kingpin. Yeah. And and keep in mind when I say that his role in Men in Black is one of my is one of the things that I that I think is one of his best roles. That's keeping in mind that I think he has owned the character of Kingpin in the MCU more than a lot of other actors have owned their roles. I mean, yeah, Chris Evans is Captain America, Robert Downey, Junr Is iron Man. Absolutely, it's going to be so difficult to ever do any other actor in those role type of things. But Vincent Denofrio has been so good as Kingpin, so violent and disturbed.

22:49 Yet published he's just lesser known because that is, for the most part, a. TV show role, no movie role. Yeah, it's the street level Marvel versus you know, the intergalactic stuff. But he is so good as Kingpin. So Happy birthday to Vincent Dinafrio sixty seven today. A couple other quick mentions for birthdays. Cheryl James turned sixty. You may not know her by her given name, you may not know her by her government name, but we all know her as Salt from Salt and Peppa. And if you don't know their music, I feel sorry for you if you at the very least know them or know her from the insurance commercial she did where they're mowing the lawn and saying push it real good. At least that's something. And the most decorated Olympian in history twenty eight Olympic medals, Michael Phelps is forty one today. Happy birthday to Michael Phelps. Good job, yeah, really good job, really solid effort. Good for you. Michael Phelps turning forty one today, we can all breathe a huge sigh of relief.

24:11 Gracie the giraffe has been found safe in our Texas hill country. This is after two weeks on the run. Two weeks on the run, Gracie the giraffe has finally been found. Despite the viral sensation that she became all the amazing spottings around the world, Gracie has finally been found. I have seen, I mean some of it's entertaining. Some of it's just so stupid of why can't they find her? Hey, do you realize how big Texas is? No, they don't. They don't realize that that's just really large, and.

24:52 Giraffes blend in in the foliage of especially. Where she was. Ranch manager Vic Jones spotted her from a helicopter. Authorities reported she was found just four miles south of her home and she was fat and happy. So Gracie's in great shape, just living her best life running around the Texas hill country. I imagine she stopped into Fredericksburg for a little bit of wine and cheese, maybe took a dip in Lake Travis, probably had a nice jumped around the hill country. Maybe he went to Franklin's for some barbecue, had a great time. It's one of the things.

25:33 And this is not so much as Gracie the Good Giraffe related, but just giraffe in general. Have you seen the video of the giraffe standing in the middle of a storm just. It is pelting them? No, so it's a video it's out of Africa, obviously, and it's like and people are like, oh my god, those four What do you think happens when they're in the middle of a storm. They're taller than almost anything that could shelter them. That's what that's just how nature works. No, that's what that's what they do. There's there's not a whole lot of you know, places to run and hide when.

26:15 There's not a lot of two story trees running around there, and. Especially when you've eaten the leaves off of all right. Yeah, there's not a whole lot of barns in Africa for them to stick their heads under. Kind of a thing. No, it's just I mean, it's it's a it's a striking video because it's this just massive Yeah, it just huge storm and the wind is I mean they're just standing there and it's just standing headway, you know, just getting it head on, and it's you know, they get to eat in places most people don't. But that's one of the trade offs is they're sol when it comes to storms. And and then I found out what I was reading about it, they're thirty times more likely to get him highlightning.

27:02 Man just can't catch a break. Look, look, being a draft is hard. It ain't easy being it ain't easy. Being a giraffe. And they can't swim. It just makes it even worse. It makes sense though, when you think about it, because, honest to God, like they are not they're just looking looking at their proportions. I'm not surprised that drafts are not the best swimmers. They're all neck and little legs, so I'm not even sure if they do. They have her back. They've transported her back yet, Gracie. They said she's an excellent health, grazing near a creek, plenty of food and water.

27:44 Last I saw they were still coming up with a plan to get her back. That's right. Yeah, So because of the remote, heavily wooded brush, it's difficult to access by car. Bringing the twelve hundred pound animal home requires some specialized handling. Veterinarians and the ranch team planned to sedate Gracie, hood her eyes and transport her back in a custom built enclosed trailer, in other words, a convertible. Following the escape, the ranch manager announced plans to install fencing along the two hundred foot rocky stretch where that she used to climb out fences.

28:26 That's what keeps the animals in. It's not that hard. People. Oh, but look at seeing all the interesting viral places that people were taking photos with and of Gracie. That was fun. I think we all needed that little distraction. There was a bar I was at just yesterday. I saw a little giraffe sitting sitting, and I was like, hey, look I found her. It's very different. This one was like six inches tall. Though it's just a little toy. So yes, we can all breathe deep, deep, deep sigh of relief knowing that Grace either giraffe has been found. Uh real quick, I want to make sure I mentioned this because Trey found something that we don't often give credit to here inside the Treehouse, we don't often give credit to gen Z. In fact, we have a tendency to dunk on them a bit deservedly so. But Tray, you feel that gen Z has finally got one right.

29:28 They have they uh and all there and there. Seems never ending uh quest to rename everything. They have found a new name for tramp stamps. Oh yeah, we grew up with tramp stamps. We know those quite well. What is gen Z calling them? Cake toppers? Yep? Plug clapt our kids. Well done, that's good. You're listening to the Treehouse. Visit us online at Treehouseonair dot com.

As you said, Trey, they finally got one right. What we all knew as tramp stamps. Back in the nineties and beyond, they have renamed cake toppers. I think that's fantastic. Good on them, and it reminded me. I don't know when but started being referred to as cake, but I like it. It's funny.

31:51 I don't know if you've have you seen any of the Shrek movies, Trey, No, I saw the first one. Okay, so you remember the gingerbread man. Yeah, very scene stealing character in the Shrek films. So we're getting Shrek five next year, and they released a teaser trailer for it the other day. I of course watched it because I'm a trailer wore. And in the teaser trailer for Shrek five, the gingerbread Man in one little scene, turns around, bends over. He's got two little gum drops like he's had like a Brazilian butt lift, and he turns around, bends over. It's like, I'm all caked up. So and you said cake topper. All I can think of is the gingerbread man being all caked up in that Shrek five trailer.

32:38 So thank you for that trade. And something I never thought I would ever think that. Whatever happen in my life a caked up gingerbread man. Thank you to Shrek five for that. All right back inside the treehouse, now getting back into some seriously stupid news. The World Cup, by all accounts, has been a phenomenal success. Everybody's hat well, not everybody's happy, because not everyone's teams have made it into the knockout stage, but all the North American teams have. The US, Canada, and Mexico have all made it to the knockout stage of the World Cup. Canada even and won their first. Knockout game in a amazingly dramatic fashion with an extra time I think I think there were six minutes of extra time and it was about the fourth minute they got a beautiful goal.

33:28 So that's awesome. Good for them. And let's be honest, you don't typically think Canada when it comes to soccer, partly because it's got to be difficult to train for it because it's really cold there and you can't go outside to play soccer at least half the year, depending on where you are in Canada. Yeah, you Canadian sports consistent ice. Right, like curling, awesome, skiing, absolutely, hockey hardly anyone better outdoor soccer not as much as you would think, hey, good for them, happy for North America. We're all happy for that. And having spent a little time in New York City recently the first time for me and my wife, there are a lot of World Cup fans in our major cities. Dallas has had a lot, Dallas Fort Worth areas had a ton of World Cup fans in the area.

34:23 Spending this last Saturday in New York City. Tons of World Cup fans everywhere, which makes it easier as a tourist because they're attracting all the attention, which is great. All the Norway jerseys, like every country imaginable here for World Cup. I saw jerseys in New York City over the weekend, tons of the English Three Lions fans as well, and so they're taking all the attention from all the New Yorkers away from just a regular tourist. So I appreciate that. The culture clash that happens with World Cup is interesting though, because here you have all these fans from around the world coming to America, most of them for the first time ever, and so they're being introduced to American food, American culture and customs and tipping. This is something that other parts of the world don't even do if they ever did, Some don't do it anymore.

35:28 There's now a World Cup tipping culture clash. The World Cup is obviously bringing huge business to local economies in the US. Restaurants and bars, though, have learned that many international soccer fans that many international soccer fans either don't know how to tip, or they just flat out refused to tip. So in order to protect workers who rely on tips, restaurants and bars in cities like New York, Kansas City, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Dallas, for Worth, Arlington, a lot of them are now adding a twenty percent service fee onto every check, and some international fans are clapping back on social media. They're trashing the policy and arguing that funding restaurant payrolls should not be the customer's problem. That might be the case where you're from, but in America that's just not how things are run, for better or worse.

36:25 And that's a huge debate we've been having in America for a number of years. Should restaurant workers have a higher wage and not depend on tips? Should it be left up to restaurant owners? What's the deal? So it's the World Cup of tipping war that is now kind of happening, and Trey, you've been filling in at one of your old spots the last few weeks. Have you seen any issues with the tipping from out of country fans? Actually, it's it's been better than I expected. You never expect European and really most people from any other country to tip. It's so it's they don't tip great, but they have been better about it than than they have in the past. The automatic gratuity, though, that has been I think the World Cup's just highlighting that because that has been something that a lot of places have been doing before the World Cup came.

37:22 Just just in general. A lot of places are going to an autograt system because service industry workers, for the most part, unless you're in some very jacked up cities that. You know, require you know, a high, high hourly. Most service industry workers make anywhere from two to five dollars an hour, and so that their tips is what makes them get a livable wage and make a mistake, a lot of people make you know, forty fifty dollars if they're good at their job. So it's not you know, it's one of the things that drives me crazy with the whole you know, service industry, people going well.

38:08 I don't make a living. Ways, maybe you're not any good at your job because a lot of people over the years, over the centuries have made a very good living in the service industry. But it's it's not for everyone. But it is a very easy job to do at times, and. So but yeah, it's to me, it's an impossible job at times because you have to deal with people, drunk people and drunk people, hungry people. Who do you think is worse when it comes to tipping? The after church crowd on a Sunday or a European whose country doesn't have tipping, Who would you rather serve? Oh Europeans, that's kind of what I figured you would say, Would you rather serve the after church crowd? Or someone from another country has never even heard of tipping?

39:08 The after church brunch crowd is the worst? Uh, because they may tip, but they will run you ragged for said tip and and make your life absolutely miserable. Why is that? Why are they the worst? I there's there's a level of entitlement. That I can't I can't explain. I don't know if anyone really can like, I don't understand the mentality behind it, because the idea is, like you know, for Christianity, is to treat others the way you would like to be treated. At least that's one of the main tenants. And then there's a bunch of other stuff that falls in underneath that. But why are you such a jerk like you just came from church.

39:59 You should be. This is the most enlightened and spiritually fulfilled you will probably feel all week. So why is that the time when you go to a restaurant to treat the server like absolute dog poo? Jesus wouldn't do that. I don't. I've never understood it. And keep in mind, I have absolutely not a single day in my life ever worked a service industry. There's a reason for that, probably because if I did, I would probably work one Sunday and a church crew would come in and I would kill them all. And that's why I don't work service industry. You know, we lump it all in with the church crew.

40:39 But brunch people just suck. People get real picky on stuff they want and how the you know, how your eggs are cooked. That's probably one of the biggest things of. You know, God forbid, you want your eggs cooked a certain way, and they're a little bit off esp Actually, people given there like, oh I want my scrambled eggs, soft man, they're scrambled egg Shut the fuck up. I I know a soft scrambled person. So I understand. Now. I love me some brunch I am. I am not a picky brunch bitch. But I will tell you one story that we had the absolute worst brunch experience. This was in a place in North Dallas. Not going to say the name of the restaurant, but it's as far as I know, it's still there. It is a very popular North Dallas brunch place. And we had not tried it.

41:37 This was years ago. We hadn't tried it. Like, we have got to go try this place. The reviews are amazing, so we go. It was the worst brunch experience we've ever had because, you know, especially at the time, we're also drinkers, so let's have a bloody Mary. Let's also do the bottomless mimosa. And then when the server looked at us when we said bottom bottomless mimosa like we were speaking German, like, oh that was that should have been the That was the first red flag that we missed when the server for brunch doesn't understand a bottomless mimosa. They came back and said, I can get you a bottle of champagne for like sixty something dollars. We're like, that sounds terrible. And then she's like and then it's like twenty five dollars for the juice. We're like, oh my god, this is the worst brunch drink special in the history of brunch. Then it got worse because then when the food came out. I'm trying to remember how this worked. I think I had gotten I think I had gotten like an eggs benedict or something, and instead of a poached egg, which a poached egg. There's really only one way to poach an egg. You poach the egg, and it's supposed to be a runny yoke, right, I think I got like I got a hard boiled egg, like just straight up hard boiled egg, like for a chef's salad. I'm like, okay, come on, no one's food was right. It was all bad. And uh when I said this, I I'm not typically again, I'm not typically a picky bunch bitch, but when you hard boiled my poached egg. It's like I would like a new one.

43:03 And I guess that pissed off the kitchen because they brought out When I say over easy, I mean it was snot. It was over snot, it was I don't know, I don't know if it ever hit the pan. I think you just cracked an egg over a new Benedict and said take this to the assholeh. And that's one of the things that I always feel bad, especially for servers in a brunch crowd, because a lot of the time it's the kitchen that is a complete mess. Because for most restaurants, they're open seven days a week, and your night menus the same seven days a week, but for two days Saturday and Sunday, serve brunch and it's a completely different menu, and a lot of times it's different. It's different cooks, or it's cooks that are trying to do and they're just not good at it.

44:01 Brunch is an art form in and of itself, breakfast as all. I mean, Listen, there is a guy I caid you not. I can't even think of the handle. It's a TikTok account I follow. He's a line cook and he basically, but he is a master at the breakfast rush. It's like, I could I watch his videos the one time. They're like three four minutes long of him during a breakfast rush, you know, omelets and pancakes and everything else. He's an artist. Will you send that to me? I would love to watch that. Yeah, yeah, and uh but and so many just can't do it. Or you know, if a cook calls out and then you someone's filling in. Like you said, they can be the best line cook in the world for lunch and dinner, but brunch completely different animal and stuff like poaching an egg where you know you drop it in the water.

44:55 You gotta know because you're multitasking to a level. Line cook's multitask a good life cook better than almost anyone. They have got five different things going on and they keep track of it. It's actually, like I said, it's amazing to watch. There's no way in hell I could do that, oh at all. I like lots of people will put on their resume, Oh I'm a multitasker. I am not. I don't like it, I don't enjoy it. I'm not good at it. Sure if someone asked me, like an if I was in an interview. They were like, so are you pretty good at multitask Oh? Sure, No, one says no, I'm in truth, I am not a multitasker. You give me one job, I will do that job. I will solely focus. I will obsess over that job. That's the weird part of my adhd is I will obsess over that thing. I will get it right, I will get it perfect. But don't you dare ask me to do anything else, cause that's when I will just screw everything up.

45:55 I am not a plate spinner. It's not gonna happen. Don't ask me to do that. But it is fascinating with the whole tipping culture. How some you know, some countries don't do it at all. I don't know if they're like if an American goes to a certain country and leaves a tip, I don't know if that's insulting to some countries and cultures or not. But coming to America, if you don't tip, if you're from international, a lot of service industry may just kind of prepare themselves for it and be like, you know what it is, what it is, I'm not going to die on this hill. Kind of a thing. And you know, fight anybody over it. But the auto gratuity thing makes sense, especially when you've got a certain number of people in a party. You know, it's like a lot of places now it's like if you've got six or eight people, it's not a gratuity added, which I think is good. It's just a fascinating thing, you know, when worlds collide, when cultures clash, and tipping not tipping kind of a thing.

46:52 Listen, it's one part of it. But I will say this, I think America has come out of the World Cup fantastic. You know. I think you watch so many people's reaction to things, and the how Americas portrayed overseas versus what they found is completely two different things. And good job America like that we. Have done very well, so well that they're talking about that we may get another World Cup sooner than just about any. Other country it ever has. That's pretty amazing. Good job, everybody, Good job. Way to put our best foot forward and not show them all of our ugly spots all at once.

47:37 Just shove it in the closet for a couple of weeks. When they all leave, we can pull it back out. I know, I'm gonna butcher this, but I saw someone's analysis or comparison the way they described the World Cup and having all these people from around the world coming to the United States. They compared it to our cousins coming over for an overnight visit. So everyone's got, you know, everyone put on your happy face, clean up the house a little bit, and enjoy the when the cousins come over, and then they leave and everybody goes back to normal. I thought that was a really good, uh comparison. It's like, it's like having the cousins come over for a you know, an overnight play day. Okay, last little bit inside the treehouse. Today, three people have been accused of a prison break in at a Tennessee corrections facility.

48:35 I'm sorry say break in. Yes, three people have been accused of a prison break in at a Tennessee corrections facility. Someone not tell them the mo of how that works. You're doing it wrong, dude. You're supposed to break out, not in. At what Why were they breaking in? It wasn't a prison break but rather a prison break in that led to the arrests of three men at the Shelby County Penal Farm in Memphis last Tuesday. They were all charged with aggravated burglary and conspiring to bring contraband into a penal institution. According to an affidavit of complaint, at around two am, two men dressed in all black spotted getting out of a vehicle with several bags on a road near the Penal Farm. Detective said they saw both suspects abruptly lie down in the grass, hiding as a marked County Sheriff's Office patrol vehicle drove through the area.

49:37 The suspects then proceeded on foot towards the inmate perception area. One suspect used bolt cutters to cut a large hole in a barb wire fence, while the other retrieved three bags and carried them to the fence, handing them through the opening. Detectives said one of the suspects was apprehended in a wooded area with two bags containing varying amounts of contraband and a pair of bolt cutters, and another app inside the perimeter of the Penal Farm facility with three bags containing more contraband. Woo the men tried to smuggle marijuana wraps, cigarettes, cigarette lighters, vaping materials, medications, cell phones, charging blocks, cell phone batteries, battery covers, a SIM card to my five box, and other items into the correctional facility.

50:25 One is being held on a six hundred thousand dollars bond, the other on a two hundred and fifty thousand dollars bond. The third is being held without bond. All three scheduled to appear in court next week. They were trying to break into prison so they could bring all sorts of contraband inside the prison. Here's my question, Please. You're breaking in to a prison, You're to do commerce with criminals. What are you gonna do when they decide not to pay you when you get inside and they go, mmm, I like that phone. I believe I'll take it. What are you gonna do?

51:13 See now, Trey, That's a part of my grand plan as I'm breaking into the prison to get contraband into the prison for which I get arrested. Once I'm in prison and everyone's enjoying my contraband, that's when I That's when I collect when I show when I show up, I don't know. Do you do you do? You do you get Venmo? Do you PayPal for that stuff? Do you think I mean. Who are you gonna complain to when they just they when the criminals steal your stuff, that's probably stolen. Yeah, no, it's true, I mean the whole They're.

51:54 No honor among thieves. I feel like these young men really didn't think this went through. No, no, no. Or you know they've they've cousin Larry that's already there, has given them really bad advice. No, really, it's great in here, man, this is the best. Hey, I think you should join me in here, but do me a favor. Stop by Radio Shack. You're gonna make a fortune. Stop by the stop by the Apple store. Well, and especially look when you get into prison, it's all about street cred, right, It's like, hey man, what do you in for? You have to be a hard ass. You can't tell someone, hey man, why are you in here? Well, I got caught trying to break in. Wait, what you know?

52:44 Why you stole my charging block? Here's the reason I'm in here. Asshole, stole my charging block from the C block. Yeah, if you're making that phone call on my phone, on the phone you stole from me. I'll tell you what. Though, they're going to understand a new definition of butt dial. Yeah, they're gonna be subthing to home movies. Can't wait to see their profiles on Only Inmates.
