1
00:00:22.239 --> 00:00:30.640
It is time to leave your worries
outside and join us inside the Treehouse.

2
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:39.119
I'm Daniel Malley along with Trey Trenholm
and Raj Sharma. Welcome to episode ninety

3
00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:44.359
Inside the Treehouse. If you have
not yet heard about Trey's side hustle,

4
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:50.960
you should go. Uh, you
should go listen to the Treehouse plus episode

5
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:57.960
that you can find at patreon dot
com slash Treehouse on air. Trey has

6
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:02.719
a founder, not a creative way, and certainly not a new way.

7
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:07.840
In fact, it's one of the
oldest professions to pay for four thousand dollars

8
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:15.120
worth of work that needs to be
done on his car. And I want

9
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:19.640
to make sure that we jump into
this show really, really quickly, because

10
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:23.079
I gotta be honest with you guys. I don't know how long we have

11
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.840
because I have come to the conclusion
that the world is about to end.

12
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:33.719
I think the end is near it. I think we're in the end times.

13
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:38.920
We've got the eclipse today, We've
got earthquakes in New York City.

14
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:46.599
The earthquake before New York City,
there was like two seven something magnitude earthquakes

15
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:51.319
in Taiwan. I think I think
we're here. I think we're at the

16
00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:57.079
moment where the Earth just decides that
she's had it with us and either gobbles

17
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:04.359
us all up or spits us all
out into space. Okay, that's yeah.

18
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.639
Did your island? Did your island
get invaded by hundreds of thousands of

19
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:15.759
people? Yes, every year in
one weekend, and sometimes it feels like

20
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:22.039
it. It's a small island.
Yeah, but but no, not not

21
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:25.240
not like that. Trade. No, that that the thousands and thousands or

22
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:30.199
as you said, hundreds of thousands
of people that have descended upon North Texas

23
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:37.120
to witness the solar eclipse. Speaking
of the solar eclipse, I have to

24
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:39.240
ask this question. It's been on
my mind. Are we sure it's an

25
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:49.240
eclipse? Or is Arkot responsible?
They're so bad they blacked out the sun.

26
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.000
I mean, if Urcot's shown anything, they there. They can't keep

27
00:02:53.039 --> 00:03:00.919
anything that heats on. That's why
I asked the questions, are we sure

28
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:04.879
it's an eclipse or is it just
Yeah, we actually know when it's it's

29
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:08.599
not our cut. We actually know
when it's coming back on, all right,

30
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:13.639
But if it doesn't come back on, then we'll know it was either

31
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:17.759
or the end of the world.
Either way, I love I love the

32
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:22.800
the arrogance and pride of Texas where
we just think the sun's on our grid

33
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:30.199
too. Hey, hey, you
need to conserve. We need no sunlight

34
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:36.039
between between this minute and this minute
because we don't think we have enough.

35
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:40.840
We don't think we have enough juice
in the generators to maintain all the power

36
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:50.960
in the state. If you're just
showing off, Yeah, I love that

37
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:54.080
they're on, although I can't totally
see, you know, come next winter,

38
00:03:54.479 --> 00:03:58.719
Yeah there's some blackout whatever, and
Arcot will be like, yeah,

39
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:02.360
remember that eclipse that we lost on
solar energy just totally screwed everything up.

40
00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:08.120
That would be a veryrut thing to
do. It would blame the sun or

41
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:13.680
the lack of power six months later. Yeah, if they do that,

42
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:18.279
then we know that they listen to
us. Oh yeah, yeah, then

43
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:24.079
no, they've been listened to the
trio. But that is definitely an Irkot

44
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:28.279
thing to do, except no responsibility
and try to place blame elsewhere. And

45
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:30.240
during the press conference they would point
to the sky and say it's it's that

46
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:35.439
asshole's fault up there, the one
wearing the sunglasses for no reason, and

47
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:40.319
it's not even it's And then if
that would be if really you're blaming the

48
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:44.639
wrong person, it's really the moon's
fault. That would be the Public Utility

49
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:53.680
Council is the sun. The PUC
is the moon, and we're all just

50
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:58.560
left in the dark here on Earth. Speaking of that, did you guys

51
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:02.720
did you buy do you have your
line gass is ready to to for the

52
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:10.720
for the eclipse? The the O
s A or A s A approved glasses.

53
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:13.920
I did not. I did not
get glasses. I'm just going with

54
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:18.560
my cost of sunglasses for this one
because where I am it where it's it's

55
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:21.480
going to be like a sliver.
It'd be like if if if the bottom

56
00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:26.399
of my coffee cup was the sun. Mhm, the only part that's going

57
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:30.600
to be covered up is going to
be like this. Yeah, And that's

58
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:33.399
not even it's not even really worth
it for me to try to find glasses

59
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:36.279
to look at it. Well,
there was an expert on the other KNAE,

60
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:41.199
mister O'Malley, just to let you
know, a lady went out with

61
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:46.240
her just her regular sunglasses, which
are not approved and and not advised for

62
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:53.480
the eclipse today, and she looked
up and she felt a burning sensation after

63
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:57.600
a while and went to her eye
doctor and there was a crescent shaped burn

64
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:03.279
on her retina. So just FYI. So what you're telling me is the

65
00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:10.079
insignia for stupid is crescent shaped.
Yes, and you could just as well

66
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:15.319
have it because you're gonna go out
there with some Oakley's yet. See,

67
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:19.160
I should have been more specific.
I'm not going to bother to look up.

68
00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:24.240
So I'm not going to bother to
try special sunglasses because when the sun

69
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:28.920
is only going to be eclipsed where
I live this much, it's not even

70
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:32.720
worth me getting the glasses and looking
up. So I'm just going to continue

71
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:36.079
with my days as normal. You're
not going to even want to try to

72
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:40.600
look at something that you won't be
able to see for the next twenty years.

73
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:44.160
I saw it in twenty seventeen.
We were all standing on top of

74
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:47.399
the iHeartMedia building right off the toll
way, and it was us and the

75
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:53.040
Engineering department and a few other people
that were cool enough in the engineering department's

76
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.279
eyes to be allowed on the roof
with them. It's a very exclusive club

77
00:06:56.279 --> 00:07:00.480
when you're in good with the engineers. And then we're all looking at the

78
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.120
eclipse, and it was fun and
I was freaked out because I'm on the

79
00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:08.199
top of a building and I'm afraid
of heights and this is not good.

80
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:11.639
So everyone else is standing looking up
at the sun. I'm lying down on

81
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:15.199
my back because I don't feel steady
enough to stay on my feet and look

82
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:17.600
up. Gotcha, you don't want
to be the old guy at the end

83
00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:20.319
of the bar that tells like the
younger kids as they're coming in to get

84
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:25.079
a drink, like you won't even
remember when there was an eclipse and he's

85
00:07:25.079 --> 00:07:34.040
got two crescent eyes. Don't wear
Oakley's. They're not approved. And the

86
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:38.879
sad thing is, I actually do
remember the last time we had an eclipse

87
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:44.800
like this. When was that nineteen
seventy nine, yep, And that you

88
00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:46.079
know, you want to know how
I remember because I had I had a

89
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:51.279
telescope and my dad set it up
because and you didn't even have the glasses

90
00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:56.959
like that, so you had to
set up telescope where you had like a

91
00:07:56.959 --> 00:08:00.519
little whiteboard where your eye piece was
and it showed the clip going past.

92
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:01.720
Yeah I remember. Yeah. Oh, I thought you were going to say,

93
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:05.120
like little four year old Trey decided
to look and look at an eclipse

94
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:13.920
through a telescope. He was subsequently
the friend of the youngest cornial transplant.

95
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:22.879
Yeah that's your dad look through the
lens. Not only yeah, not only

96
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.199
is he a complete idiot, but
he's he's a medical marvel on two fronts.

97
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:31.800
One from being one of the dumbest
children ever and do because he got

98
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:33.960
two brand new corneas out of it. When someone brought that up, I

99
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:39.080
was like, man, well,
I feel nice and old. I watched

100
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:43.200
all of the stuff leading up that, the media outlets were saying about which

101
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:48.039
glasses are approved and what you get, and uh I went with the one

102
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:54.240
head and ordered the five pack.
So if there's Amazon, yeah, me

103
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:58.919
too. It's like if there are
people and I was like, I'm just

104
00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:01.360
if there's people out that don't have
the proper equipment, I will, I

105
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:05.399
will. I will gladly give them
some give them or sell them. No,

106
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:09.000
no, no, I'm not that
Indian. I don't still who I

107
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:16.480
am because this guy right here,
that Indian. Yeah, that's a couple

108
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:31.159
less handies and doesn't everyone count.
See this is another example of the reason

109
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:35.399
why I think the world is coming
to an end. Raj Uh is not

110
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.120
fully Indian in this manner. Whereas
Trey is, Uh, Trey's given out

111
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.679
hand jobs so he can try to
fix his car, which it's unnecessary because

112
00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:48.240
the world's about to end anyway.
Got the eclipse coming in, We're not

113
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:50.960
even guaranteed it's going to come back
on because kap may be at the controls.

114
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:56.120
Then, as I mentioned, you
got the earthquakes in in Taiwan last

115
00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:01.000
week, and New York City had
such a major earthquake at four point eight,

116
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.279
I believe is what it was.
They had to have a massive press

117
00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:07.919
conference about it to let us all
know that everything's fine. Yes, nothing

118
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:13.639
happened, but but but they're gonna
take a look at everything just to make

119
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:18.159
sure. Yeah. I mean,
that's basically what Governor Hochele and Eric Adams,

120
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.960
the mayor of New York City,
basically came out and said, is

121
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:26.519
everything's fine. Oh hey, we're
gonna we're gonna trust us, We're gonna

122
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:30.639
take a look, We're gonna make
sure everything's okay. I like, I

123
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:37.960
have to say this, I am
extremely cautious at the least whenever politicians do

124
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:43.159
a live press conference and use the
two words trust us, but beware of

125
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:48.159
the politician saying trust me, but
it's like urkot right, they just want

126
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:52.759
it's a you have to understand.
Uh, it's not us not doing our

127
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:56.919
job. It's the city's old and
it's not designed, so like they're checking.

128
00:10:56.960 --> 00:10:58.480
Like I think one of the places
they are checking is one of the

129
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:03.679
longest tunnels that they have for the
subway and our trains is one hundred,

130
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:11.679
one hundred and fifteen years old.
And that was not designed for any sort

131
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:16.000
of earthquake damage. No. And
and many of the buildings in Manhattan's are

132
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:20.120
old and were not built any spects
that would include an earthquake or anything like

133
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:22.759
that. My problem is is,
you know, I don't if I own

134
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:30.159
a building in New York, I'm
not trusting the government for its safety.

135
00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:33.200
I'm gonna go get like my own
engineer to take a look at it.

136
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:41.639
Yeah. And there's the other thing
is you have like like did you did

137
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:46.559
you go from handies to like full
throat. No. If you see me

138
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:56.600
in a new car, then you'll
know you're listening to the Treehouse. Visit

com. I was looking at the storm

142
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:18.759
forecast for the entire month of April, Daniel, and I know it's difficult

143
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.559
to forecast those things thirty days out, but they're predicting. I think it's

144
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:24.759
like a third of the month is
going to be rain and or storms.

145
00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:28.759
So it's probably a good time for
people to get the roof check to see

146
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.080
if they're ready for it. Yeah. No, I've just read a rapport

147
00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:35.440
also. Yeah, so April is
historically our busiest month as far as storms,

148
00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:39.320
that's just through all years of data. But this year we will have

149
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:45.039
a probably a more intense April.
We have a lot of factors out there

150
00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:50.360
that's setting this up. We have
a transition between El Nino and La Nina,

151
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:52.799
and that's going to cause a little
bit more disturbances to occur. And

152
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:56.360
the way the jet streams are set
up, it's going right over the beautiful

153
00:12:56.360 --> 00:13:01.600
state of Texas, and so that
means a lot more to disturbances and some

154
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.039
big, big storms. So yeah, if you have any you know,

155
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:07.879
thing of that you think your house
may be jeopardized, you need to go

156
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:11.480
ahead and get it to fix now, because it's only gonna get worse if

157
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:13.840
you'd let it keep going. So
give Daniel Cook a call right now to

158
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.320
make sure your home is ready for
the storms to come. Eight three to

159
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:26.600
three Cook DFW the website again,

00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:39.799
brought to you by Cook DFW Roofing
and Restoration for your free roof inspection called

162
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:45.120
Daniel and Kerrycook right now. Eight
three three Cook DFW. That's eight three

163
00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:52.799
three Cook DFW The website, cookdfw
dot com. They do not service the

164
00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:56.720
New York metropolitan area. But the
good news is I don't think New York

165
00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:00.480
has to worry about any major roof
damage from a four point eight earthquake,

166
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:05.200
although after watching that press conference you
might think otherwise. Yeah, now now

167
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:11.879
that the headlines are New Yorkers brace
for aftershocks, and everyone in Taiwan's like,

168
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:18.639
go fuck yourself. A four point
eight earthquake in New York City,

169
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:24.600
and the and the the entire United
States halts what it's doing and talking about

170
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:31.879
and watching to talk about that.
When Taiwan had an actual serious earthquake where

171
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:37.080
a building like partially collapsed and is
kind of leaning over more dangerously than the

172
00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:43.759
leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy.
Yeah, and there's also other stuff going

173
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.919
on that's way more serious. But
oh, you know, someone tickled Manhattan,

174
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.240
so we got about it. I
feel like all the countries along that

175
00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:58.000
Pacific rim, you know, really
are just looking at us, going are

176
00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:01.960
you serious? Yeah, you mention
that people love Pacific grim they have real

177
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:07.399
problems. They're called kaijus, the
big monsters that come out of the middle

178
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:13.399
of the Earth and tech cities.
Uh yeah. And then the lady that

179
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:16.919
was trying to explain you know,
the lady from whatever channel we did the

180
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:20.759
video where she's trying to explain the
eclipse. Uh, they did have a

181
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:26.679
somebody from in New York explain the
earthquake. It's like a two point zero

182
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:30.440
earthquake and then a three point oh. The three point oh is ten times

183
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:33.919
worse than the two point zero.
And I was like, oh, mathematics,

184
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:37.960
okay, I thought that. I
thought it was different. I thought

185
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:41.360
every point one was ten times stronger
than That's what I would think. And

186
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:46.080
so again this is this goes back
to the conversation we had, Like you

187
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:48.399
mentioned, Raj, that Mary o
Ruiz from Channel eight was having to Eclipse

188
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:54.120
explain to everybody like we're children.
They're having to do it the same way

189
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:58.559
with earthquakes, because at least this
way, we're all not on the same

190
00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:02.480
page. Because I was with Trey, I thought like, for each point

191
00:16:02.519 --> 00:16:07.480
one or for each tenth that it
goes up, it increases like by ten

192
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:11.279
times. So it's like a four
point eight sounds really bad, and it

193
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.480
should because it's so many more time. It's math man, I don't know.

194
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.399
All I know is I don't really
get worried until you start hitting over

195
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:22.279
six. Yeah. I was in
I was in Sherman Oaks when there was

196
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:25.159
a six point three that hit and
I was watching TV when it happened,

197
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:30.279
like and that's like like my building, the buildings on castors, So it

198
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:34.600
goes with the as are a lot
of buildings that have been earthquake fitted in

199
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:40.480
California. However, the earthquake goes
it is, the building sways with it.

200
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:44.799
Yeah, but it's still the earth
moving, so it it did.

201
00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:47.120
It's one of those things where I
was like, Okay, that's that's an

202
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:48.679
earthquake. There was one where I
was asleep on my couch. I didn't

203
00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:52.960
know. I thought somebody had crashed
into my building because I was asleep on

204
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:55.840
the couch. When I woke up, I was on my feet. Yeah,

205
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:59.519
so it jolted me out of my
onto my feet. And so that's

206
00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:03.519
that's four point eight. Like we've
I've been inside the laugh factory watching the

207
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:07.359
glasses rattle on the glass rack and
it was like a four point one,

208
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:10.960
and I was like, does anybody
else notice that They're like, yep,

209
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:15.680
nobody. Nobody stopped doing anything.
My dad could fart a four point one.

210
00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:22.799
Come on. Yeah. So the
amount of coverage that is that this

211
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.279
is getting is hilarious to me to
watch a bunch of people going, yeah,

212
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:30.000
nothing happened back to you, Jim. All right, let's see what

213
00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:37.079
Steve has to say. Yep,
not dick here either, guys. People

214
00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:42.160
were people have had sex that registered
higher on the Richter scale than four point

215
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:48.440
eight. I mean, Trey's handies
registered at two point four. So that's

216
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:59.000
because he's gentle but firm with a
kung fu grip. Did you say kung

217
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:04.359
fu or kumfu? I think we've
got a new T shirt for the show.

218
00:18:08.599 --> 00:18:12.079
We have to get the the g
I Joe reference with the from grip.

219
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:18.559
Right, we have to have the
g I Tray except it's two grips.

220
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:29.319
There's anything worth doing is worth doing
at the same time. That's just

221
00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:37.720
getting to your goal faster. That's
not just imagine if you had eight arms,

222
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:48.319
Tray work smarter. I would love
to see Aaron Arimporor's face, our

223
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:52.240
our graphic artist, uh in the
treeouse when I say, all right,

224
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:57.759
we need a T shirt with some
artwork titled Tray's Handies and if you can

225
00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:03.440
give him eight arms, go for
it. All kung fu grips, all

226
00:19:03.559 --> 00:19:08.480
its Oh. There was another sign
of the end of times in addition to

227
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:15.319
the earthquakes and the eclipse. And
that is a video that I had not

228
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:19.519
seen until recently. And I am
stunned that I had not seen it because

229
00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:26.200
it was It's apparently quite popular,
and I'm going to share it with you

230
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:32.200
two now. Okay, I don't
know if either of you have seen this.

231
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.039
I'm just throwing it in front of
your eyes the way it was thrown

232
00:19:37.079 --> 00:19:38.319
in front of my eyes. Sorry, Trey, if that's too soon.

233
00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:45.440
Coming off of your handiwork but I
want your honest reaction here. Put fake

234
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:56.240
my fake lashes on his eclipse glasses. It blots up more than the sun.

235
00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:02.920
So anyway, another sign of the
end of times when I show you

236
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:06.160
the video that I'm about to show
you. All right, gentlemen, are

237
00:20:06.200 --> 00:20:12.839
you ready? Yes? You are? Not? Here? We go.

238
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:34.759
Do you recognize the stars of this
video dancing to the Dirty Dancing soundtrack and

239
00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:40.559
the end scene of the movie.
Yes, yes, yes, yes I

240
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:47.680
do. Have Have you seen he
Man in Skeletor recreate the ending of Dirty

241
00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:53.319
Dancing before? No, I'm glad
because I hadn't either. That's amazing.

242
00:20:53.640 --> 00:21:00.079
I've been watching this for a week. We know is this part of a

243
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:04.880
movie or something? It is not. I'll let this play out and there

244
00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:07.920
will be a hint in here as
to what it is, and then I'll

245
00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:11.519
give you more information about it.
But for now, I want you to

246
00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:19.000
enjoy he Man dance serenading Skeletor,
who happens to also be his uncle,

247
00:21:19.079 --> 00:21:45.279
if you're familiar with the show.
So the way this is different is in

248
00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:48.400
the movie Dirty Dancing, they're in, you know, like an auditorium,

249
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:52.559
a ballroom type of thing. They're
up on a it's an auditorium because you've

250
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:56.319
got They started their dance out on
top of the stage and Patrick Swayze jumps

251
00:21:56.359 --> 00:22:00.519
off and he goes out in the
crowd dances with all his dirty dancing friends,

252
00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:04.079
and then they come back towards the
stage and then uh uh, Jennifer,

253
00:22:04.119 --> 00:22:08.359
Jennifer, thank you Jennifer. Greg
jumps off the stage and runs to

254
00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:15.079
Patrick Swayzee and he does the lift. Here they're in a bar, so

255
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:21.279
the while the venue is different,
everything else is shot for shot the same,

256
00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:27.039
except you've got Skeletor playing the role
of baby and he man uh playing

257
00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:32.839
the role of Johnny Raj. Have
you seen dirty Dancing? Yes? Okay,

258
00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:37.359
can you imagine if he hadn't and
he thought this was just an original

259
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:44.160
thing? Larious because honestly, the
way that Skeletor moves his hips on top

260
00:22:44.200 --> 00:22:52.200
of the bar u is really good. But it's also really really dramatizing.

261
00:22:52.599 --> 00:22:56.680
As I grew up watching this card
too, Yeah, it's a very a

262
00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:00.279
very sensual Skeletor. Yeah, it's
a side of Skeletor. We've we've not

263
00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:10.000
seen Skeletor covering his mouth going oh
that didn't traumasize you either. The whole

264
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:14.440
thing is rather traumatizing. It's really
difficult to nitpick. Yeah, all right,

265
00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:15.400
I'm gonna start this back over,
and it does start with. You

266
00:23:15.400 --> 00:23:18.799
know, there's a guy that hits
the jukebox. The music fires off,

267
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:23.039
and he Man jumps off the bar, runs down to the crowd. Then

268
00:23:23.079 --> 00:23:27.880
he does the dance back towards the
bar, and then that's when Skeletor runs

269
00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:37.480
towards him real quick. The costumes
on this are really impressive, like he

270
00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:44.079
Man and Skeletor, Like the musculature
on these costumes is pretty impressive. But

271
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:48.599
also, did you guys notice this
guy right here, the bartender, the

272
00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:55.079
bald guy. Do you know who
Austin Butler is? The actor? He's

273
00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:59.039
the actor that played Elvis in the
Elvis movie recently. This guy looks just

274
00:23:59.160 --> 00:24:00.720
like him and at first I thought
it was him, but it's not.

275
00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:18.559
Anyway, here we go he Man
dance serenading his uncle's Skeletor. Ugh,

276
00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:26.799
so weird. Where it comes up. Where's gonna run the he Man and

277
00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:37.279
we're gonna do the lift Heman on
skeleton? You're so money supermarket, so

278
00:24:37.359 --> 00:24:42.400
you just catch the ad in there
for a supermarket, Money Supermarket. I

279
00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:45.799
don't even know if this company is
still in business, is it? Is

280
00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:53.480
it a European commercial, it's gotta
be. In twenty seventeen, Money Supermarket,

281
00:24:53.519 --> 00:24:57.640
we're looking for new ways to bring
that epic feeling of saving money to

282
00:24:57.720 --> 00:25:03.279
life. Alongside creative agency Mother London, they decided on recruiting two iconic eighties

283
00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:07.160
characters, Skeletor and he Man from
the Masters of the Universe for their famous

284
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:12.640
You're So Money Supermarket theme. The
resulting campaigns were amongst the biggest ad campaigns

285
00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:23.079
of two thy seventeen. The first
one was actually Skeletor feeling epic dancing along

286
00:25:23.119 --> 00:25:29.799
the Iren Car's fame. So that
was the first one. The second one

287
00:25:29.799 --> 00:25:36.759
that we just watched is he Man
and Skeletor with Mother London for the Creative

288
00:25:36.759 --> 00:25:44.799
and Money Supermarket recreating the dirty dancing
stuff. Gotcha they were alone company,

289
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:49.160
is what it was. Yeah,
I believe. So, yeah, here's

290
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:53.839
what I realized. Though He Man
was wearing ugs before ugs were cool.

291
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:03.000
What if he was the inspiration for
ugs. Some cospally guy was like,

292
00:26:03.079 --> 00:26:10.839
I need to these are really comfortable
market and he was obviously very smart because

293
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:14.880
he knew he couldn't call them he
man's because they're not mainly looking right,

294
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:21.720
Surry boots have never been equated to
with manliness, although when you think about

295
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:26.079
it, so iconic characters are wearing
them. He man wears furry boots.

296
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:32.319
I'm pretty sure Conan the Barbarian wore
the furry boots. Yes, through Paul

297
00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:44.359
tom Brady. Yeah, all the
greats man. It's the boots with the

298
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:51.440
fur. And I'm pretty sure Tom
Brady looks pretty good in the apple bottom

299
00:26:53.880 --> 00:26:57.640
real quick. The campaigns were a
huge success, with a dirty dancing spot

300
00:26:57.720 --> 00:27:04.039
generating over twenty seven million views in
a matter of days and trending on Twitter

301
00:27:04.160 --> 00:27:08.880
across the UK three times. It
garnered the level of word of mouth that

302
00:27:08.920 --> 00:27:12.759
everyone was hoping for and resulted in
a six percent uplift of total revenues for

303
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:18.200
Money Supermarket. So yeah, this
was all the way back in twenty seventeen

304
00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:25.200
that this was done. That's impressive. It's really well done. And that's

305
00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:26.559
all the like you's. Like you
said, Dan, that's a lot of

306
00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:32.160
money that was put into this commercial
with the costumes and the whole thing.

307
00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:37.559
Truly do uh you guys want to
see Skeletor Dancing to Fame. Yes,

308
00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:44.759
yes, Tray's like I thought you
were never gonna ask the Skeletor memes and

309
00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:48.079
cartoons, like the little videos they
do. We jumps out and he's like,

310
00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:55.400
just remember, yeah, horrible fat
is my favorite. But my question

311
00:27:55.480 --> 00:28:00.000
is like advertising is geared to like
make you want to buy the product right

312
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:03.359
in general? Like would that make
you want to take out a home loan

313
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:14.200
with these people? I don't care
what kind of interest rates Skeletor's pushed and

314
00:28:14.319 --> 00:28:18.039
I am not using him. I
never thought there would be a time in

315
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:22.559
my life or we would ever say
I don't care what interest rate Skeletors what

316
00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:27.519
I don't even know if it's for
home mortgages in the UK it's money supermarket.

317
00:28:27.559 --> 00:28:32.799
I assume it's for like like a
cash advanced payday loaded kind of thing.

318
00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:41.240
Is Skeletor the guy you really want
to owe money to interest because it's

319
00:28:41.240 --> 00:28:47.839
not for me Now, it's it's
the little cat that runs and hide with

320
00:28:47.960 --> 00:28:51.039
the first hint of danger. Then
that's the one I'll take a money blown

321
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:56.440
from. Yeah, just uh,
it's a it's it is like a cat.

322
00:28:56.480 --> 00:29:00.519
It's like a kind of a multi
cash advance, home mortgages, home

323
00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:04.640
loans like personal loans. And I'm
like that doesn't make me that like that

324
00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:10.519
makes me want to get high and
just keep watching this video. That's like

325
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:14.920
if this was for this was for
a dispensary, I'm like, well played.

326
00:29:15.079 --> 00:29:18.079
Oh yeah, I would like the
I would like the he man skeletor

327
00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:27.519
romantic hash. I'll get high on
a little skeletor cush like some he man

328
00:29:27.559 --> 00:29:33.880
hemp. I can. I can
do it, but I'm not like,

329
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:37.279
okay, I would be so embarrassed, like hey man, beautiful house,

330
00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:41.759
like where did you get your where
did you get your financing from? Skeletor?

331
00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:45.519
Like, oh man, that is
don't you dare miss a payment?

332
00:29:59.400 --> 00:30:15.480

335
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:30.880
I'm about to mention to the guys
here, it's actually a very fitting placement.

three six eight thirty eight thirty eight. The website Brooks Plumbing Texas dot com.

339
00:30:42.920 --> 00:30:48.920
In addition to the earthquake in New
York City that had people in a

340
00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:55.440
tizzy before the earthquake even happened.
And maybe this was a not an aftershock

341
00:30:55.480 --> 00:31:00.519
but a pre shock. Did you
see the high rise that was that had

342
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:03.759
water shooting out of it in New
York City a couple of days before the

343
00:31:03.759 --> 00:31:08.960
earthquake? I did not, No, Yeah, a huge jet of water

344
00:31:10.279 --> 00:31:15.000
spewed from a New York City high
rise. This was on Thursday morning,

345
00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:18.720
On Thursday morning. I'll let me
try and pull up a photo for you

346
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:22.839
guys here so you can see what
it looked like. But it really was.

347
00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:27.079
It was on a lot. Footage
posted to a social media app showed

348
00:31:27.119 --> 00:31:32.799
the massive jet of water bursting from
a building in Hell's Kitchen on West forty

349
00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:40.920
second Street and eighth Avenue just before
noon on Thursday. Share it so you

350
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:45.400
guys can see this here, so
you see fdny I told The New York

351
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:49.599
Post they were responding to a water
leak and that no injuries had been reported.

352
00:31:49.599 --> 00:31:56.559
But this is their idea of the
water leak, gentlemen, I mean,

353
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:00.119
that's a lot, that's a lot, that's a gusher. Now they

354
00:32:00.200 --> 00:32:06.839
said water leak. But when I
first saw the video of this last Thursday,

355
00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:09.039
I just kind of assumed it was, you know, someone shooting a

356
00:32:09.160 --> 00:32:22.079
video for only fans that just got
out of hand. That's that's how they

357
00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:25.720
can afford to live in that high
rise. A lot of subscribers. And

358
00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:30.960
also now and now I'm also wondering, Trey, are you is your new

359
00:32:30.960 --> 00:32:40.279
business mobile? If so, good
on you, man. You're not just

360
00:32:40.319 --> 00:32:44.279
any old You're not just any old
call girl. You get, you get

361
00:32:44.359 --> 00:32:54.839
imported. Start spreading the news.
Let it's news you're spreading. I think

362
00:32:54.839 --> 00:33:00.680
it's also important here that we we
plug again our Patreon because things today we're

363
00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:05.039
visual, still funny audio wise,
but when you see the visual accompaniment,

364
00:33:05.359 --> 00:33:08.640
it makes it really worthwhile. Or
you can always catch it on Treehouse TV

365
00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:14.000
on Saturday mornings, so you can
see he Man and Skeletor dancing together,

366
00:33:14.160 --> 00:33:21.799
or you can see this only fans
squirting video run amok in New York City.

367
00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:24.000
It's one thing. They have to
change the sheets, the nothing.

368
00:33:24.000 --> 00:33:31.400
They have to changed the wallpaper.
Of course, that just means New York

369
00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:45.440
City is gonna have to call another
press conference. It does make you wonder,

370
00:33:45.480 --> 00:33:47.480
like New York City City Hall,
are they just ready for a press

371
00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:52.720
conference at the drop of a hat
because something's always about to happen. They

372
00:33:52.920 --> 00:33:59.160
just want TV time, Like all
the media coverage has been on everything else,

373
00:33:59.240 --> 00:34:04.400
but what's going on here? So
yeah, next thing you know,

374
00:34:04.480 --> 00:34:07.000
Roj, you're seeing them at open
mics and they're coming up the stage with

375
00:34:07.079 --> 00:34:13.360
credits like you may have seen them
on press conferences on Channel two and seven.

376
00:34:13.519 --> 00:34:15.039
Oh and by the way, he's
also the mayor of New York City's

377
00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:17.280
what I'm saying, Like I'm watching
the press coll like the Mayor's got more

378
00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:23.920
TV credits than me. Right now, thanks for hanging out with us inside

379
00:34:23.960 --> 00:34:28.920

will see you back here on Freddy for
