00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:30.600
It is time to believe your worries outside and laugh with
2
00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:33.520
us inside the treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley along with Trey
3
00:00:33.560 --> 00:00:38.840
Trenthome and Raj Sharma on Thursday, March thirteenth, two thousand
4
00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:44.920
and one. Five Happy Thursday, Tray, Happy Thursday, Daniel, Happy Thursday, Raj,
5
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:52.280
Happy Thursday. Before we jump face first into the cornucopia
6
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:55.840
of stupid that we have on tap for today, Raj,
7
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:58.439
just a quick question for you. How are you feeling?
8
00:00:58.479 --> 00:01:00.200
How are you doing? Are you okay?
9
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:02.759
Things are good? No, things are good.
10
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:05.760
Do you do you need your first installment of eighteen
11
00:01:05.799 --> 00:01:12.959
dollars a day? And with your syndrome disease my syndrome. No,
12
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:16.799
it's just it's a lot of love from the listeners.
13
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:18.120
A lot of people reached out.
14
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:20.959
That was very nice. It's just it's just a tremor.
15
00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:22.120
It's not a big deal.
16
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:27.359
So that's what they said in six. Sorry, I should
17
00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:30.319
probably be more specific now now that there's been a
18
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:32.040
two thousand and six. That's what they said, and I
19
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:34.000
believe it was nineteen oh six San Francisco.
20
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.760
Oh yeah, it's just a tremmor in my hand. It's
21
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:41.439
all good. It kind of it goes away with the medication,
22
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:42.079
so it's not that.
23
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:44.760
All right, Well again, you let us know if you
24
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:49.879
need anything we'll do in the meantime. I would actually
25
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:55.680
like to start the show on a sorry, Raja, if
26
00:01:55.719 --> 00:01:57.519
this is hitting too close to home, but I want
27
00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:58.879
to start the show on a good foot.
28
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:05.840
It hasn't gone to the leg just yet yet a
29
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.479
little bit. Yeah, uh, all.
30
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:10.080
Right, here we go.
31
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:16.159
It is time for wrong answers only here and only
32
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:22.879
here inside the treehouse today on wrong Answers only. A
33
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.400
thirty five year old man was arrested in New Hampshire
34
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:31.280
for walking around naked. His name is blank. His name
35
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:36.240
is blank, Trey Raj. A thirty five year old man
36
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:40.080
was arrested for walking around naked in New Hampshire. His
37
00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:45.479
name is Blank. I will need your wrong answers only, Trey.
38
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:47.800
Let's start with you.
39
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:56.159
Uh, Dingus mcding dingle dong.
40
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:01.560
I kind of wanted to just go home right now
41
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:09.360
because that's his name was not Dingus mcdingle dung, But
42
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:12.719
now I really wish it was. So since that is
43
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:15.000
the wrong answer, that is the correct answer here and
44
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.520
wrong answers only, Raj, it is up to you to
45
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:20.599
see if you can make it two for two on
46
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:23.560
Wrong Answers Only. A thirty five year old man was
47
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:28.800
arrested in New Hampshire for walking around naked. His name is.
48
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:32.560
Willie Butts.
49
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:38.719
That is a wrong answer, which makes it a correct
50
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:44.879
answer here inside Wrong Answers Only. Good job you two.
51
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:47.719
A thirty five year old naked man who was walking
52
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:50.639
down the highway was arrested in New Hampshire and his
53
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:59.439
last name is Wiener. So while you guys were kind
54
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:04.360
of close, especially you Trey, you went a fancier on
55
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:08.159
his actual name, but still means you won Wrong Answers Only,
56
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:13.080
so you know, good job. So that's not the whole story.
57
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.759
There's a I have a few more pieces. I have
58
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:19.360
a few more inches of story for you. So this
59
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:21.480
thirty five year old man in New Hampshire was arrested
60
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:26.839
on Sunday, and he had himself quite the Sunday afternoon.
61
00:04:28.040 --> 00:04:31.879
He first allegedly stole a car, then caused an accident
62
00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:37.120
on the highway. He sustained minor injuries but otherwise okay physically.
63
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:40.000
His mental state, though, might be a little more in
64
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:43.759
question because after the crash, the man took off all
65
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.720
of his clothing, abandoned the clothes on the shoulder of
66
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.199
the highway, walked across the highway and left the scene
67
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:53.199
of the accident. Multiple drivers called the police after dodging him,
68
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:56.360
spice of them to dodge him. Police found the man
69
00:04:56.639 --> 00:04:59.480
wandering down the highway and they were pretty sure it
70
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:04.199
was him because he was still completely naked. The man
71
00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:13.199
was identified as Sean Wiener. So naked man highway causing
72
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:19.680
an accident names Wiener. Yeah, uh, Wiener was charged. I'd
73
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:21.480
like to point out I'm about to read a really,
74
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:25.439
really fun sentence. This is the benefit of going through
75
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:27.959
the news every single day. You get to read things
76
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:33.079
like this. Wiener was charged with indecent exposure and lewdness,
77
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:39.480
reckless conduct, disorderly conduct, and littering. Please don't ask me
78
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:41.319
what he threw on the ground. I don't want to
79
00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:42.720
find out.
80
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:47.959
I'm I'm assuming the close was it littering?
81
00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:48.839
It could be.
82
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:52.319
I hope that. I hope that's it. I hope it
83
00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:57.319
wasn't anything else. Uh that why the way? That that
84
00:05:57.399 --> 00:05:59.720
by the way, that's just the aftermath of the crash.
85
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.720
There were are going to be separate charges for theft
86
00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:05.680
and the car crash. Both of which are still technically
87
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:08.399
under investigation. The other stuff, they're all pretty sure he did.
88
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:14.360
If he could could have picked up his own trash,
89
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:15.639
then that would have been impressive though.
90
00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:21.360
But Wiener, stop traffic.
91
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:26.560
That's not bad, probably because he is picking up trash.
92
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:29.519
Yeah, a little bit here, a little bit there. We
93
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:32.319
picked this up with this in my bag. Yeah, I
94
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:40.000
but get all this trash.
95
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:41.959
You're listening to the Treehouse.

97
00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:53.519
Let's get Daniel Cook from COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration into
98
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:56.800
the Treehouse. Their number for your free roof inspection eight
99
00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:01.680
three three Cook DFW, the website, COOKDFW. The RMS Treehouse
100
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:05.720
Listeners Foundation exists to help the families of fallen DFW
101
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:08.839
police officers and firefighters killed in the line of duty,
102
00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:11.839
and we've been very fortunate over the years to partner
103
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:15.920
with some outstanding companies wanting to help. And today we
104
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:18.720
get to add Cook DFW's name to that list of
105
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:21.879
excellent sponsors to the foundation because Daniel, you and your
106
00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:23.839
wife Carrie have said, you know what, we love our
107
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:25.959
community and we want to do something to give back
108
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.959
to our first responders in DFW Right, Dan.
109
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:32.519
That's absolutely correct, and you know, truth be known, Carrie
110
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:35.839
has given to the foundation for quite so many years.
111
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:38.639
But now at a company level, I think we are
112
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:43.079
wanting to definitely you know, beef that up and start
113
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:46.560
giving back to the foundation. And it's unfortunately, this is
114
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.399
a foundation nobody wants to have to donate to, but
115
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:51.959
it's the real world is that these things do happen,
116
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:56.199
and it's the type of foundation that you don't want around,
117
00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:58.879
but you definitely want it to be you know, available
118
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:01.519
to the families that need it. And so over the
119
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:04.199
next couple of months, you know, a portion of all
120
00:08:04.199 --> 00:08:07.800

00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:24.160

150
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.799
I'm Daniel Mallley along with Trade Trenholm and Raj Sharma
151
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:47.799
here on Thursday March thirteenth, twoenty twenty five, on the
152
00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:51.120
heels of a man the last name Wiener being arrested
153
00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:56.000
for walking down a naked walking down, naked walking naked down.
154
00:09:56.000 --> 00:10:00.320
There you go, walking naked down a New Hamphire highway.
155
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:04.039
I think we need to tread into something a little
156
00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:08.960
more serious, while at the same time making sure we
157
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:13.720
keep our feet firmly planted in our lane of stupid. Okay,
158
00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:19.840
what I'm talking about is this. Southwest Airlines is making
159
00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:26.679
a major policy change. Checked bags on Southwest Airlines will
160
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:34.399
no longer be free, one of the benchmarks of Southwest Airlines,
161
00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:40.559
one of the main features to flying Southwest Airlines bags
162
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:44.320
fly free. I can still see the commercials in my
163
00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:51.720
head Southwest Airlines bags fly free. Well, Southwest Airlines has
164
00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:54.000
decided to look all their customers in the face and
165
00:10:54.039 --> 00:11:01.840
go few no more bags fly free. And I gotta
166
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:10.080
admit I'm a little surprised by this. No, no, go ahead, go.
167
00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:11.799
Ahead, No, I think it was They said it was
168
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:15.759
like a downturn in traveling and downturn in the economy
169
00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:18.559
that had to make them start charging.
170
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:23.519
They're not the only ones this is, I believe the
171
00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:26.679
third airline that I've seen over the last week starting
172
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:31.039
to talk about baggage fees now, obviously just about all
173
00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:34.080
the other airlines charged for them already. Southwest was the
174
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:37.639
stand alone when it came to not doing so that
175
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:40.200
now they're joining the frey. The other airlines were talking
176
00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:45.240
about changing their bag policies to mirror those of Europe,
177
00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:49.919
meaning the bag, the carrying on bag would be the
178
00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:53.240
dimensions that Europe goes by, not just the American standards.
179
00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:55.440
So that was a bit of a change. But Southwest
180
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:58.440
coming out and announcing that bags are no longer going
181
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:02.200
to fly free is a huge, huge policy shift. And
182
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:06.960
they did this even though they had a third party
183
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:10.679
group do research for them on this policy and whether
184
00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:13.879
or not to reverse it, and the recommendation of that
185
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:18.639
study was this is a huge thing for your customers,
186
00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:21.159
don't do it. What did they do? They decided to
187
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:25.240
change it anyway. And the reason why it looks like
188
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:29.080
money shocker greed, Well, go ahead, Drey.
189
00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:33.200
You have to remember that last year there was an
190
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:35.519
investment group, I don't know if it was a hedge
191
00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:38.320
fund or not, but some kind of big money portfolio
192
00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:43.320
that basically bought a major interest in Southwest and has
193
00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:47.159
a seat on the board now and so you you know,
194
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:49.320
when that happens, you have different priorities.
195
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:52.480
Yeah, it's called we don't care anymore about the customer.
196
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:55.039
We only care about the stockholders now, which is an
197
00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:59.720
unfortunate shift that I've seen in companies throughout the country.
198
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:01.480
And this is one of those things that makes me
199
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.480
sad on a human level, because we no longer care
200
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:10.000
about customers and the product that were supposedly selling or
201
00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:13.519
the service we're providing. Instead, we're more concerned about stock
202
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:17.240
price and shareholders than we are customers or their products
203
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:18.879
and services that we offer.
204
00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:19.759
Well.
205
00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:24.320
I think also with Southwest, they they have had a
206
00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:28.120
rough couple of years as far as you know, where
207
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:32.159
they rank on efficiency and on time, a bunch of
208
00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:36.200
flight delays power, you know, their computer system is arcane,
209
00:13:36.759 --> 00:13:39.720
and so I think that had a you know, I
210
00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:41.919
read something so that had an effect on how many
211
00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:45.360
people are flying Southwest And they were the last one
212
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:48.039
to not charge for baggage, and I think you know,
213
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.200
they were like, well everyone else is doing it, and
214
00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:53.360
you know, ultimately they're probably right that although there will
215
00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:57.399
be at a backlash, you know, sooner or later, people
216
00:13:57.399 --> 00:13:59.519
will forget about it, and they'll still fly Southwest.
217
00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:01.559
So this is one of the great things that I
218
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:05.519
see with corporate decision making and corporate decision makers on
219
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:09.000
you know, from large companies. It's everything you just said, Trey.
220
00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:13.320
It's worried about the investment group that now has a
221
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:16.000
seat on the board. And what really stood out to
222
00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:22.360
me was Southwest had an issue with service, with arrival
223
00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:26.120
times and all these other things surrounding the airline, and
224
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:29.399
what is their response to that, Let's start charging for
225
00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:35.600
bags instead of doing things publicly to fix the problems
226
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:41.200
at hand. Instead, you decide to bitch slap your customers
227
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:44.279
by saying your bags no longer fly free, because if
228
00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:47.639
we're gonna get you there late, if at all, then
229
00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:49.559
we feel like we should take more money out of
230
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:54.519
your pocket for it. You're welcome. And the other thing
231
00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:58.919
that Trey said, which is also true, most of us
232
00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:02.159
as customers will probably still fly Southwest despite it, because
233
00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:05.440
it's kind of like voting. It really does kind of
234
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:08.600
come down to picking the lesser of whatever evil.
235
00:15:10.679 --> 00:15:14.120
But I think they if I read the story or
236
00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:18.519
heard the story correctly, the first class passengers or whatever
237
00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:21.960
their elite passengers, I think they don't have to pay
238
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.639
for the banks. Is that correct that?
239
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:26.720
I don't know, but and Trey is right, So it
240
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:30.360
has everything to do with money. Southwest lowered its revenue
241
00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:33.480
outlook for the first quarter the other day, along with
242
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:37.879
Delta and American Airlines, citing softness and demand amid a
243
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:41.080
weakening macro environment, but then in a separate announcement, set
